We are coming. All right, we're back. Circling back podcast. Today is St. Patrick's Day. Happy St. Patty's Day. Top of the morning to ya. My name is Will DeFries. To my left, David Ruff.

Somebody tried to pinch me earlier. I didn't try. I pinched your ass. Despite the fact that I'm wearing green shoes and a green hat. So I owe you a little something buddy. You owe me a pinch? Oh, you'll be lucky if it stops at a pinch. Hey, pinch me daddy. Hey, I'm gooseing anyone that doesn't have green on today.

Oh, that's good, dude. Randy? You wanna get goose? I am wearing green right now. Yeah, do you understand that you don't just pinch people wearing green? Yeah, you just reckless for you. That's the whole idea.

Yeah. I didn't look at your hat, I'm sorry, man. I took my green off before the pot. Does that mean I'm pinchable? Get him, dog. Dylan wouldn't know the difference. Yeah, I didn't look at your hat. I'm sorry, man. I took my green off before the pot. Does that mean I'm pinchable? Get him, dog. Dylan would know the difference. Yeah, I was going to say if you told me that was green, I would absolutely believe you. Really? Yeah. OK. It's not it's not.

I don't have any green on right now. Our boy, Davis Clark, wore a suit today. He's working from home. And he he let us know he's wearing a suit to work from home. And he's just going to see if he can get the boys like and hyped up because it's like, oh, he's rocking a suit. He's working from home. I love that move for Davis. Yeah. We'll see how it plays out with the heavy hitters. That's a crazy move. Did you have potatoes for breakfast to get dialed in?

You got to think there was some starch involved. Yeah. He's moving different today. Hey, this week in Twitter ads, so Twitter ads have gotten out of control for I think a lot of people. I got served one from at evoking genius. I'll read it. He fancies himself as a business coach to CEOs hire me as their coach and trusted advisor. Got 2600 followers says I quietly celebrate St. Patrick's Day as an Irish American, dot, dot, dot. With the last name Hitler. Oh no.

Four grandparents, three of whom were of Irish heritage, Sullivan, Lynch, Hunter, and Hitler. These days I'm proud that my parents kept the name as a built character. I understand that now. Of course, this is from John Hitler with two T's. You gotta change that. There's a second T. He's got two T's. I understand, but when you're an induced yourself, you don't, do you clarify every time? Two T's. What if you took the L out

and not only are you taking an L out, kind of a mental thing, you're John Hitter. Yeah, John Hitter's a sick name. That's a great. Great name. OK, now you're John. Before I say what I'm about to say, can I get each of you to say that you know that I'm not a Nazi? I from everything I know about Will, it is my understanding that he is not a Nazi. Dave, can you please say that I'm not a Nazi? Well, at the record show, the will is not a Nazi.

Randy. You know, there's there's been some things. Nope. I am pro everyone. Well, everyone? Not everyone. I'm pro all good people. Okay.

But sure, you're not a Nazi. I worry that one morning I'm gonna wake up and someone's gonna point out that I named my son Fritz when he was born on Hitler's birthday. And Fritz means German soldier. Like it really scares me. I've never considered that. Yeah, I just don't want that to ever be something

that like someone tries to cancel me for because you know, it's a family name. And I'm proud that my parents kept my family name. So is John Hitler. As a built character. You just got, you just have to. You know if I was like that worried about it, which I guess he's not at this point, I wouldn't take out a Twitter ad.

So dude. I wouldn't put money behind my tweet. Y'all need to, y'all need to, you need to upgrade one level on your verification on Twitter. Is it get rid of the ads? Yeah, I don't see any ads. But without that we wouldn't know about John Hitler. I know, but it's nice to not get the ads.

Like I don't have to scroll past the Cheech and Chong shippable vapes. I'm accidentally tapping ads all the time. Oh dude, those have died down. I've blocked Chong like a hundred times. What is up with that? I don't know. I want them to be successful,

but like how many times do I need to mute the same ad? Now that you, uh, like block, when someone blocks you, you can still see their shit now, you know? Uh, old row. I'm now seeing old row tweets. I'm now seeing pop up every now and then, which I have missed for the last, I don't know how many years. If someone blocks you and you can still see their tweets, shouldn't it be that you can't see them on your timeline still like I feel you should just be able to go to their profile and view them you there might be what it is but someone forgets I forgot how I saw it but I saw them oh I'm back on the old road shit now same with uh if I go to Kirk Herbstreet's profile right now it shows me. Didn't he re-block you? Yeah, something happened

where I was unblocked and I was able to tweet at him and then I promptly got re-blocked. He did say that his son is running his account, but I don't believe him. He likes to put little force fields up. He's a wimp. There's no fucking way. He's a wimp, dude. To block someone for a tweet that's clearly a joke is just, it's just soft. That was very soft. And it was a funny joke. How do you not laugh at that and like, okay, he got me, that's good.

And just move on with your life. Like I don't ever want to see this guy's tweet again. You know? Grow up, Kirk. Grow up. Dylan Shivery, ladies and gentlemen. Man, I'm just so happy to be here. It feels like a week where everything's gonna be hitting on all cylinders. One of those weeks, you know? Hitting like John. the the heavy hitters going? Got my green on. We've had some heavy hitters lately. Do you? Dave

had Tron on on Friday. He welcomed into the program. Yeah, we had uh the heaviest of hitters. TC from uh NLU fame. Check it out. It's on your feed. Just saying, if you haven't listened, you should listen. Don't really talk much golf. Good. I love that. Dude, I'm such a sicko that I don't even like have to talk golf.

That's how much of a sicko I am. Do you understand what I'm saying when I say sicko? No. It means like I'm walking in deep. God damn. I'm in so fucking deep. That's fucking that's. Should we do an off site with no laying up? I'd love to. No but that would require playing golf and we got this fucking guy. Yeah. Yeah.

I gotta fix my pool, man. It's so bad. What's wrong? pH too high or? You run salt through that thing or chlorine? It's almost all P, no H. P-U-L-L with my golf swing. I'm just yanking everything left, man.

Just yanking. It's a fairly easy fix. Is it? I've had it for years. I say that, I don't know. I follow a number of Instagram accounts plus my Biz Dev guy's got a PDF. Oh, that's right, yeah.

I've got the cool problem right now where my drives fade, which I actually appreciate. It's a beautiful fade on these drives, but then everything else is just doing the opposite, hooking a little bit. It's not a tried and true hook, but I need to work through this. Isn't the back jacked up still? Oh yeah. I had a nice little shooting pain up the entire back the other day when I was playing an iron shot and have to say that maybe you should have just taken the day off in general.

Probably not gonna play for at least two weeks. Why don't you get you a booze drink, Halle? I did. All right. I did, I got a ranch water at the turn and it did make it feel a little better. So it was really good. turn and it did make it feel a little better. So lubricant, huh? You know, sometimes daddy needs his swing juice.

I hear you. Dude, I play better when I drink. I'm such a freaking sicko. Dude, you just forget about your bad habits sometimes. You just free, you know, free swinging. Yep. Now I need to lock in more. I'm trying to, what I need to fix is not my swing,

it's the mental part. I need to start envisioning things more. I need to start. Anyway, we don't need to go down my swing thoughts. No, let's do it. Can we just do a video called swing thoughts and it's just us approaching our, it's just us talking through our inner monologue.

Yeah. Yeah. Dylan's is just you fucking piece of shit. You fucking worthless scum. You're gonna pull this. You got a little Brooks Kepka in you. In what sense? He's got a little he berated himself recently. Yeah. Yeah, I will do that. Which is stupid because I go out there like expecting to play well, even though I don't practice and I'm just generally not a good golfer.

Like, what are my expectations really? Like, why am I doing this to myself? Yeah, we don't know, man. Honestly. I don't know. It's stupid. You guys fill out your brackets yet? Haven't done a bracket. If you're a backer out there, you got two brackets to fill out today.

Okay? Okay. You got your bit madness bracket as that first episode drops, if I'm not mistaken, tomorrow? Tomorrow morning, so the last call tonight. Yep. So today's your last day to fill out your bit madness brackets. Go get those in. Here's how we're doing it this year.

We're doing it a little different this year. Some people didn't like that it took up normal episode time. Oh, oh, I don't like that it take it all. They just want to listen to us cook, man. I can't get it. I get it. I get it. So what we're doing this year is we're separating out bit madness, Dave, get that off your screen, bro

You just you just took my They've just got served to em Rada photo and it just took me out. I was gonna guess Maya. Jama It just took me out. Okay. I was trying to find this photo of Eli gemstone for memes It was not a horny play. It was not a horny play from Dave. He was not just lingering on it. I can say that Anyway, so yeah bit madness brackets will be on their own or sorry, Bit Madness episodes will be their own episodes. We're releasing the first one tomorrow. We've already recorded it. We are not putting the onus on anybody. We're using whiteboards to

conceal our votes so that we can have a more genuine experience and we won't just anoint something as the champion to mess with Dylan. I appreciate that. It's big of us. I appreciate that. Something that can of us. I appreciate that. Something that could still happen. Yeah, you guys will collude beforehand and just be on the same team. Dave and I have never colluded beforehand.

Any collusion will happen mid-episode. We should separate you two for the show so you can't board look. We're not board looking. I think we just- I see you board looking. No, we didn't board look last time at all. Or Dave, if Dave was board looking at me, there were several times where I thought Dave and I you bored looking. No, we didn't bored look last time at all. If Dave was bored looking at me, there were several times where I thought Dave and I

would have the same thing and we didn't. So I think collusion is at a minimum this year. No, if I was looking bored, maybe it was your fault. Oh! No. No. No. It's good.

Yeah. So we'll be giving out some prizes for the best ones. So, so get your brackets in. Let's just say I was looking at my brackets submitted and I think of the 32 matchups, I've only gotten six wrong. So you should win. You are like the, you know, us better than anybody. Like if I have a question about circling back history, the first person I go to is not one of the co-hosts. you certain backs number one fan? No, are you obsessed with us? I Got six wrong and only one of those six goes on to the next round. So I'm sitting pretty right now

Randy got his job by just constantly making stuff for us to the point where we had to give it to him because I just felt Bad that he was doing it first like free It's like a make-a-wish thing that we just like keep going with for so now. I love Randy man. It sucks Yeah, you get a job folks. You just annoy them until you get one I always thought when I was like 22 that if you just showed up the same company every single day with a resume that they Would eventually hire you because they'd feel bad for you Yeah, like I think if you went to the same office every day, it was like, I want to work here more than anything in the world. Here's my resume. At some point, they'll give it they'll give it there. You're either gonna get taken out by

security or they'll give you the job. Yeah, they'll have to drag me out limp. Yeah, you're gonna Yeah. Like you're gonna deadweight them every day. I just I go in and get dragged out. It's time. 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 at by a prostitute.

Oh, thanks for asking. I had quite a weekend guys Let me tell you about it Friday night Chelsea and I stepped out for a little Matto Ranchos Don't make us don't make us ask what you ordered. I know it's not Thank you I got fajitas took a fun fun car ride home. Tell you more about that later Saturday big day Chelsea order of mats stop. I said fajita nachos. Oh, sorry, or not nachos. That's it fajitas. You'd nothing else We'll talk more about that positive that the frozen margaritas at Matt's

are all the exact same. Top shelf, skinny, house. The skinniest tastes great. My theory is when they're very crowded, which is like, although Dylan said it wasn't as crowded, but like on weekends when they're stacked, they don't have time to get you that. They're just going to go to their little mix

that they got in the back. There might be something to that. I want to tour the bar. And and I wanna have them show me, these are the skinny ones, these are the normal ones. Cause from what I see, there's one machine running these marks. Well, you feel better ordering the skinny, even if it's the same shit.

No, I don't care about the skinny. I more care about when people start ordering the top shelf. And I'm like, guys, it's the exact same Margarita. We're paying double the price. I never go toppy on them. Anyway, Saturday, big day. I told y'all last week that my my nieces were coming over for a summer party so that my sister and brother long could have a night to themselves. And it was

a lot of fun. One of them is about to turn to the other one's about to turn four. And having a child in the home that young, it's been so long for me that it was good to get some reps in, you know. Welcome to the grind, dude. Talking, you know, diaper changes and the little one woke up three times in the middle of the night, then they got up at 6 15 together. And it was such a throwback. It was like okay this is what it now I've a renewed appreciation for what you guys are going through at home. But we did great. Chelsea is uh Chelsea doesn't have a kid herself but she is an absolute natural. She like she wanted to get up with them and and do the diaper changes and stuff. She was a real one so shouts to Chelsea for helping me out.

It was great though. Took him to the playground, watched Moana 2. Damn dude, I got vetoed when I tried to throw on Moana 2 this weekend. Really? Yeah, he just wasn't, I think he thought it was the old Moana. The older one, she's obsessed. I think she watches it every day. I don't think Fritz grasps- It's a tough one.

Sequels. We're stuck on Wally. Wally. Dude loves Wally. And I'm like, okay, it's kind of cool. Damn, he's gonna grow up with a different view of the world, man. Yeah, it is kind of a meta for kids. It was great. I loved having them. It was fun, man.

Do you want to babysit for me some night? I felt like a good uncle. Why don't you take our kids off our hands one night, Hoff? On behalf of everybody though, honestly, congratulations. Yeah, for being an uncle. Yeah, it's been big for me. Thank you. That's pretty cool, man. And then, yeah, Sunday stepped out, went to Bolden Acres with my sister, brother-in-law, took the whole squad there, got a couple of frosty boys and then came home,

took a nap. What's that crowd at Bolden looking like? We got there at 11, 11 and 15. So it was Saturday, pretty early Sunday. Oh, Sunday. Yesterday. Weather, weather was fantastic. They had a little bagpipe situation going on for St. Patrick's Day. It was fun. Shut it down by watching The Electric State, which is on Netflix right now with Chris Pratt and Millie Bobby Brown. Is that how you say it? Yeah, that movie looked terrible from what I saw. Dude, no, it's good.

Oh, okay. It's good. I mean, I think it is. You might think so. If I, okay, let me put it this way. I'm going to have to watch it. It's a fun watch. Let me put it this way. If I was on the graphic design team that was designing the graphics to put on the screen for that movie, I would have had some major edits. Okay. Fair enough. Like just the branding of it was so lame that I was like, I would have had some major edits. Okay, fair enough.

Like just the branding of it was so lame that I was like, I don't know, this looks stupid. We watched it with Parks and he had to go to bed so we still have 20 minutes to watch, of course, in true Dylan fashion. Stanley Tucci. Let the man stay up for 20 more minutes to finish the movie.

Yeah, the Tucci dog's in it. Tucci? This is a great cast, Woody Harrelson, Anthony Mackie, Giancarlo Esposito. Just a number of people in the movie, but those are big names. I suggest watching it. It's a good movie. I don't know. Will's kind of got me out on it. And then Lotus, and that was my weekend. It was a great weekend.

Weather was killer, except for the weird smoky situation. Was that Friday or Saturday? Saturday. That was weird. Hopefully things are contained out there. I haven't heard more about it. I assume we're doing okay. Do we know? I think we're at about 55% contained. Okay.

Now it's the Crab Apple Fire out Fredericksburg, boy. I yield my time to David Ruff. You're probably wondering, hey, is that really awesome winery of backer fame? Is it okay? They're okay. Good. So far so good. Well, yeah, that was,

fuck, that was very strange. It was. The winds were blowing and you already had like, cars were covered with dust. You wake up Saturday morning, like you go walk out, dust central. You're like, oh, we're doing this again. Cool. And then about noon, early afternoon, you kind of start smelling, smells like somebody's really smocking something. Yeah. And you're like, Oh, well that's weird. It's smell campfire all over the city. You walk outside and it's, I mean, depending where you were

South, West Austin was pretty hazy and orange. Um, you go on Twitter, this is one thing Twitter is good for. You get to find out there's a, there's a wildfire in, uh, Fredericksburg and, uh, started out, it was like only 400 acres. And then like within a few hours, it was like over 8,000. I think it's, I don't know. Balloon to like 10, 11, which isn't, you know, huge, but for, for that part of the state, you know, maybe.

Oh, but yeah, it sounds like they got it under control. Yeah. Friday night, we, we did some stakes at Oh, but yeah, it sounds like they got it under control. Yeah, Friday night, we did some steaks at home, some cast iron steaks that were phenomenal. I caught up on that Severance episode that you told me that you did not have fun meaning. Yeah. And it wasn't that it was like a-

Number eight? It wasn't, yeah, I'm all the way caught up. Okay. But through the- The one I didn't have fun with was the, it was the, what appeared to be a bottle episode with the older woman with white hair. Yeah. Where everyone looked like they wanted to die.

It was a weird episode. It was like when I got the screenshots from it, I'm like, well, this is going to be a sad one. Yeah. And it wasn't even that it was that sad. It was just as I was watching it and I had been warned by you, not even warned. It was just like, I knew going in, it may not be the most fun Barrett of Oyster's, Clams, and Cockles fame and retail therapy.

He told me that it was kind of mid. And I decided to spend my Friday night watching that and I had regrets going into it. I was like, you know, we're 10 minutes in, I see what this is going to be kind of a borderline dark but also just like not a lot is going to happen. Didn't love the episodes I'm trying to tell you. Not a thing many people did. It was the lowest rated episode of Severance that there has been and most of them are in the eights and nines in the whatever I whatever the rating system is. Nielsen? No, whatever that website is, Letterboxd or whatever.

I think they do TV. I don't know. But that episode is in the sixes. Checks out. Yeah, it checks out. It was okay. And afterward, I was like, man, I could have I would have rather watched like a Breaking Bad or something.

Anyway, Saturday. Yeah, we talked about the fire situation. We did a lot of outdoor activity, just backyard, backyards looking good, looking fairly flush. Grass is coming nicely back there. Cleaned up a lot of poop. Dogs be pooping. Apparently, people in the parking lots do too. More on that later.

We went over to Outripping Springs way. Man, I saw you were out there, Hoss. Yeah. I texted Micah because I knew he was kind of out about that day and he was like, yeah, I'm putting his mom on blast. He's like, yeah, my mom's coming over to watch the kids. We'll meet you all over there. And then like, I didn't hear from him. And then he texts me back way later. He's like, my mom was 95 minutes late. He used it. He said 95.

Just say an hour and a half. She was late. So, but no, we met some friends out there at a Suds Monkey Brewery. The wind was whipping. Yeah. And it made it a little bit tough. There was, there was stuff flying, but that's a cool sit. They've got a little playground, very family friendly. Beers were good.

Had a couple of colches. You ever had a colch? Oh, I'm a, I'm a colch fan, Dave. were good, had a couple colches. You ever had a colch? Oh, I'm a colch fan, Dave. Colch head, I like colches. They've got decent pizza out there. All in all, had a good experience. That area's interesting. I'd like going out that way more if like driving 290

didn't just feel like perpetual state of construction. Yeah. It's just, it feels like it's, I'm going to be out of Austin. I'll move back to Dallas or San Diego by the time it's done. Like I get, it looks like it's going to be another 20 years before that thing's ready. Yeah.

I mean, the road construction all around Austin is terrible. And probably aided in causing a crash that killed five people last week. Yeah, that was a whole lot. That was fucking terrible. My God. Was the driver that, do we know if the driver was impaired?

Allegedly drunk. Yes, he's been arrested. A lot of people pointing towards the construction, making things just, just making a bad situation even worse. He's a little bit drunk. He's allegedly drunk. Yes. Um he's been arrested. A lot of people pointing towards the construction, making things just just making a bad situation even worse. Yeah, I

saw that too and I'm not super familiar with that stretch of thirty-five but yeah, it's awful. Um then Sunday, Sunday rolls around and you know, we're just we're just vibing. We did throw on Wally, the aforementioned Wally, which was a good one. Is that your generation or is that,

what did Wally drop? Real Wally kid? That probably dropped, I would say maybe 2008, 2010. Great guess, phenomenal guess. Oh wait, okay. So yes. Yeah, so we mainly stayed in with the trip to the brewery. A lot of outdoor stuff, a lot of walks. Gotta take advantage of it while you can.

Even though it is a extremely windy today again. I don't do I don't do great in it but yeah we going to make it great. Got about four holes in. Was absolutely pissing on the ball, feeling really good about myself. Had an all time range session. What'd you do on one? Uh, bogey. Okay. Hit hit hit on just about the best drive you

could do, uh, trying to avoid the, the bunkers on the right. I decided to, uh, hit a wipey fade to the left, uh, chipped up and two potted. There you go. I was pretty happy with it. If I'm being honest with you, we talked about bogey is kind of the optimal score for one.

Get out of there with a bogey and you'll be happy. But yeah, I had a back shattering iron shot on number four or five that kind of tainted the rest of my round and kind of taint the rest of my weekend. Ended up laying pretty low through the weekend. You know what I did though on Saturday. Mattel Ranchos, Mattel Ranchos, Mattel Ranchos, Mattel Ranchos.

Did you go to Mica? I went to Mattel Ranchos with Mica. We had not seen the Weiner family in a long time. And so a recent group text turned into a, hey, we should get lunch together with the kids. So we rolled out there. You know, I did something crazy. I ordered something off the menu that not only have I never ordered before, but I've never seen anyone else order before. I got the Carnegie Sata dinner.

When I told Micah that I was going to do this, he said, Will, don't tell me what you're ordering. I want to hear you tell it to the waitress. And once I once I place that order, I got one of these from Micah. It felt really good. Have to say it was pretty good. I think it would hit even better in cold weather. So I will be deploying that solely in the colder months,

but it was pretty damn good. After that, you know, your boy just kind of lamped around, man, just watched some players championship. Watch some footy hung out. That delay yesterday really kind of killed the vibe. Dave, I totally disagree. It was perfect. It was the perfect timing for a delay because we had a 2pm Manchester United start. So your boy was feasting on live television yesterday.

We had the early tea times, we're gonna be done, wrapped up lunchtime and then, yeah. Explaining to Sally that the tournament had been delayed for the perfect amount of time to watch the Manchester United game and that I was gonna resume watching television after that. It's huge. Yeah, I ended up taking a walk

in probably holes 14 through 16. Okay. Ferrari. And Sunday chilling, man. Had to get in the garden, man. You know, the wife didn't want me to get in the garden with the back issues, but we had to do what we had to do. And so got some watering done,

determined which plants need to get removed, decided which plants seem to be bouncing back after a long winter. We're in a good spot. We're in a good spot. I think my derby party should have some new plant life in there. And yeah, should be good. Is that official? As far as I'm concerned, unless something comes up, it's a fish. It's a fish. And yeah, caught up with some white lotus last night and uh, i'm going on occ today

Noted co-host of oysters clams and cockles ross bolin is out of town And I think I think barrett considered me to be an easy get So i'll be rolling into the stew to talk that episode with them And uh, yeah, like dylan what's the show that we're watching? It's called uh Running point is that right? We're watching Kate Hudson. Dylan and I are all in in the new Kate Hudson. It's a fun show. Dude, it's great. Yeah, it's great. Dave, just start it, man. It's such like a low lift. It's like, you know. It's a rom-com version of a sports show. Yeah.

And I don't know how much rom there is in it, but I mean, anytime you get to see Chet Hanks acting like a complete dickhead for 30 minutes, I'm in. I'm in. Yeah. Kate Hudson and Chet Hanks is a perfect combo. He's electric. Yeah. It's good.

Good for him. Carving his own path. He has it. He's the perfect person to play the role that he's in. Did he get his start on Curb? Was that his first, it was his acting debut? As a veteran? Yeah. Maybe. It's a funny funny scene

what when when larry did not thank him for his service yeah and he got called out for it it's a good weekend though good good to hear man that that the way the sky looked when that fire started and frederick burr dough man it was crazy me. Dude, I was staring straight at the sun. It felt like you're doing that. It felt very Sicario. It did. See, we didn't have like, we didn't have the the Mexico Netflix filter. We more just had like every single color of everything was just heightened. Maybe I was on mushrooms. Yeah, everything just had a tent to it. It was even I saw it. Yeah, you could stare directly at the sun through the smoke. And it was like bright red, wasn't like a bright red kind of.

Yeah, it was so orangey. It was like, it was crazy. I don't know. I was worried. I was worried for the folks out there, but sounds like everyone stayed pretty protected and away from it. Yeah, it was weird. It's just, it's, I noticed, then I started thinking about our good friends in California. I'm like, is this just like months out of the year for them? This is what it smells like? Oh yeah. Oh yeah. When there were wildfires up in Montana, the photos my sister would send, it just was so

hazy. Glad everyone stayed safe. Should we hear from our friends over at Squarespace as today's podcast is brought to you by Squarespace? I think so. Here's the thing.

Uh so as you know, well, my birthday is coming up next uh in a couple of weekends and Brett and I have officially decided to lock in a date for my birthday celebration. I would like to officially invite you on March 29th to my birthday celebration. Where is it? We're probably gonna start at my apartment and then go out to the bars, you know, some casual stuff. Let me see. Okay. Let me pull up my calendar. Wow.

Kind of messed up that you'd have your birthday celebration on my parents' anniversary, but I think we can get past that. Let's see. April 29th, you said? No, no, no, March 29th. Oh, March 29th. my bad, my bad. Ooh, that's gonna be tough, Randy. It's gonna be tough. I'll talk to Sally and I'll see if I can get a flight home from Mexico early so I can go to your party. Are you willing to chip in for that change of flight cost?

Whatever, man. Like I see you complain all the time and I gotta see this, it's fine. This is classic Randy scheduling his birthday over a time when he knows I can't make it. The guilt was weighing so heavily on Randy for not inviting you that one time that he gave you his own segment on the show to invite you.

I guess. And also let me be the first, congratulate me on five years at Wash Media too. Thanks guys. Is that today? Yeah, it's today. Randy, good job. No one?

All right, cool, cool. Allow us to be the first. I'm gonna leave. Let's go to Chuck E. Cheese. At five years, like it's like, cool. Allow us to be the first. A lot of us. Let's go to Chuck E. Cheese. At five years, like it's like, it's all, it's all whatever. Really good job.

All right, well, Dylan, Dave, if you guys wanna come to it, you can come to my place. No, it sounds like we were gonna get invited. No, you guys can come if you want. I don't know, this whole segment's just done now. Let's talk about this poop. Okay, let's do it. Let's talk about the poop.

Unfortunately, we have to talk about poop on this episode. If you're, if you're not a poop person like me, feel free to fast forward by going to the description notes, but we'd be remiss not to cover this. Uh, for weeks now, we've been complaining about, uh, the parking situation at washed media. Correct. Um, it's gotten worse. Unfortunately, in the last week. Not only do we have people parking and saving spots again, but it appears as though. When you kind of prematurely said we won, I was like, let's tap the brakes a bit, bud. It was Bush on the ship.

Mission accomplished. We got him. Mission accomplished. Yeah, mission accomplished. Yeah got him. Mission accomplished. Yeah, don't Photoshop Will's face over George Debbie in a flight suit. Don't do it. Don't do that.

Don't do that. Well, we saw some scattered toilet paper within the confines of our parking lot the other day. There's a wall that separates our parking lot from the street. F is on scattered. Okay. Wow, he's cooking today, folks. Let him street. If it's not scattered. Okay. Wow, he's cooking.

Yeah. Let him cook. That's five years for you folks. Wow. And unfortunately, after getting up close with it, I think we have a scenario where a human has taken a poop in our parking lot. They did.

They did. You know, it's not good. You can tell when a tomb of poop because it's a company with toilet paper. So I got, so did you know this? You may not have been here. I just realized that. So I took, I think I discovered this. I got in my car to leave and I took a photo. I was like three spots over, but there was no cars in between. And I just saw this toilet paper like sitting there and I was like, Oh, that's annoying. Cool. I'll send a picture to the company text. And everybody's like, Oh, gross,

blah, blah, blah. And there is something that does resemble fecal matter. But I the way it's I don't want to get too graphic, but I did not. I thought it was like, Oh, there were some turds, but I thought it was a towel or something. No, like rolled up. No, no, no, no. Those were turds. I found out last week, no, it's bad.

And we don't really know what to do. Well, there's only one parking spot left after you sent that photo when I returned back to the office from lunch. So I had to take this parking spot closest to it. And I debated just going and parking on the street. I had to like... I gotta get it. I had to circumnavigate the wall in order to not be close to it. And like, I don't I'll go on record. I don't I don't think it was any of the nice ladies next door

who steal our parking spots. I think the extent of their damage to us is just simply parking in places we don't want them to park. But like, I just, I don't like that this extra layer has been added to the equation. It's just not ideal. We're not saying that our neighbors did this. No, no, no. That would be. No, it would be surprising.

But it's just, this is just further adds to the absolute war zone that is our parking lot. I'm gonna say this though, they have taken so much ownership over the parking lot at this point that it doesn't feel like it is our parking lot. I'm gonna say this though, they have taken so much ownership over the parking lot at this point that it doesn't feel like it's our parking lot anymore. If you're gonna have reserved spots, you gotta clean the shit up.

Great point. That's just how it is. Your name is literally in the parking lot. Yeah, so congrats you guys, you won. You win now. I'm such a little bitch too. But why? So we had two trash cans and two recycling bins for between our two things. You're bringing their shut up for them. No, you,

I wonder who brought their shut up for them, Randy. They got, they got another trash can and another recycling bin. So now we have three of each and I take it all three of them, all six. Stop. Stop it. You won't see six years if you keep helping them. You might as well be on their payroll, man. Because there is no, there is no ones that are technically ours. We put our shit in anyone that's open. Okay, then let's mark ours. Let's mark ours.

I don't want you taking their stuff out, Randy. Can you make ours look real fun? And clean them regularly? Can we spray paint ours and just say washed on it? They're not labeled, are they? They just say A, B, and C. They are? Yeah, they are.

Yeah, you gotta look, a lot of it's faded off. But they were gone for a week and I saw that their trash cans had been returned and I'm like, surely they didn't return to the office just to bring the trash cans up. And now hearing that it's Randy, I feel like we, are you a double agent? Here's the problem, that we share all those trash cans.

So if they fill them completely up and I don't take them down, then the next week we have one trash bag, like thing that they're gonna start putting in ours. Like I I wanna get all the things empty. You are the ultimate teach Amanda Fish guy. That's always what you say to me when I ask you to help me with video stuff even though you're the video guy. And I'm also that everyone no matter what your job is picks up the trash at Disney. That's the guy

I am too. Michael Eisner's not picking up trash at Disney. Everyone picks up the trash at Disney. Doesn't matter what job you have. You can be the CEO, you pick up the trash at Disney. Well, then go pick up the poop. I'm not gonna pick up the poop. We need to get, hey, I asked you to put some photo. We have the solution.

I'm not gonna put the photo up on the screen even though everyone has homebushes. No, no, no, no, I don't wanna say it. I'm good, I'm good. We have a solution and you have to make this happen. You need to get your firefighter roommate up on the screen, even though everyone. No, don't. No, no, no. I don't want to say I'm good. I'm good. We have a solution and you have to make this happen. You need to get your firefighter roommate to bring a truck up here and they need to get the hose and they need to blast it.

Uh huh. Blast that thing. Don't call the ladies next door that. Okay. Okay. You blast that thing till it disintegrates because it's not going anywhere. No, it's not. It's not. And it's disgusting.

There's no one you can call. Like here's the annoying thing. One of them used to park respectfully in the spot closest to where the poop now exists. Today they moved up a couple spots. I haven't seen, is it against this four wall over here? Yeah. Okay. And today they moved up a couple spots.

So they are no longer using that as their personal parking spot because they don't want to confront it. But I got news for you. Once you put your logo in the parking lot, it's your parking lot. Take it. I will say that they did,

they were parked in their two reserved spots today when I showed up. So they did actually take their spots they're supposed to use today. They didn't though, today. Why are you so teaming them? They didn't though. I'm just saying.

You're a double agent at this point. Okay, whatever. You want to set up a little desk over in their building? Go for it. I don't think this is that big of a deal. If you got a way to test your against us. You need Detective building? Go for it. I don't think this is that big of a deal. We need Detective Dick, we need Detective Dick Print on the scene.

I have officially just stopped caring about the parking lot because I think it's a good content. I was first to arrive in watch media today and the parking situation was not as it should be. Let me put it that way. Let me put it that way. Interesting, Randy. I got legs.

I can walk a couple extra feet if I need to. If I park on the street. It's the principle of the matter. It's not the extra steps, man. Don't you get it? It's crazy, dude. You do these shows and you have these little segments and it's like you don't realize

that the heavy hitters are watching you. Like they're seeing this. The heavy hitters are seeing this. What if I pooped in the parking lot? What if it was me, Dave, sending a message? It's like they're giving us milkies, man. That's what it feels like to me, you know, like, like they're big brother and we're just like, okay, we'll do whatever y'all want to do. I'm done with them. Well, God gives his toughest tests to his bravest soldiers.

Facts, I guess we are losing this war. Yeah, we know. Yeah. Is that why you're jumping ship? Yes. Getting pelted. I'm like Italy. I'm Switching sides to the good side Fuck off He said he was like Italy and World War two People forget you forget We talked Brian Johnson real quick? You know, Brian Johnson made his way to Austin, Texas and he did not stop in to watch media for any appearances,

which is kind of messed up by him given how much pub we give him. You're not familiar with Brian Johnson. He's the biohacker who's trying to live forever. He'll talk about his son's penis. He will. Well, he had a tweet this weekend that said, at a hotel in Austin, burning incense in the lobby, told the staff it's bad for their health and gave them data to share with their manager. He noted a toxin increase of about what he equates to six cigarettes. He then got written up by the Daily Mail. It says, biohacker Brian Johnson warned his followers about a toxic health threat that he noticed when he walked into a hotel lobby in Austin, Texas.

Concerned about the strong incense burning in the lobby, the California millionaire who shot to fame by attempting to reverse age himself, used an air quality monitor to gather data intending to demonstrate the potential harm to staff. Sharing his post findings on X, HealthNut, Brian Johnson posted images revealing a dramatic spike in particulate matter inside compared to outside. This is sick. What's the hotel that I hate so much? Proper. Proper. Is that where he is? The decor is giving proper that wood tone? Yes, it is. You you're you're you're

correcting this okay I don't I'm fine I'm fine with this guy trying to skew younger I'm fine with him tweeting about his son's penis and erections what I'm not fine with is him trying to steal the vibes how about how about this guy traveling with his own air quality detector or whatever you call this contraption. Come on, man. Well, dude, he's trying to live forever. No, I get it.

It's just, it's a little funny. I don't have, I don't own one of these. Surprisingly cheap. Oh yeah? Like he posted a link. I just think that you can't take the vibes from people if they're trying to burn incense in their hotel lobby, man Yeah, like with this it would he shrivel up if he walked into a Vegas casino

What if he walked into a Lake Charles casino they have such next-level air ventilation systems that he's probably gonna be okay I Saw an interview recently that said that running like a gas powered leaf blower puts out so much pollution that it's like driving a semi truck from Alaska to California. But like, can you put a price on blowing leaves in your yard? There's no way that's accurate. I don't think so either. I don't think so either. I'd be fine if they got rid of them. They're too loud. No, dude. Get a battery powered one. There's nothing you can do in Austin that is as similar to shoveling snow as blowing leaves.

It's just different. You could just dig a hole. I don't want to dig a hole. It's similar to shoveling snow. I do want to dig a hole. Digging similar to me. I do I do want to dig a hole Digging holes is sick. Do ding holes is tight. I'm thinking about taking a little dumping. Oh, yeah, dude stumping is tough Let's try you want to stop. What if we just had a circling back tree somewhere? We all decide just to go out and rip that thing up. I Ordered an olive tree from a sponsor recently You know, it would be sick if that sponsor decided to send me something even though I'm not on too much dip. I would love I would love an olive tree. Get your tree. Oh, hey, you know what? First olive goes to you.

They're fast growing. Like I'm a fan of fast growing trees. And the fact that when I heard that I didn't get a tree and y'all did, I was just bummed. I'm sorry, man. It's okay, it's okay, it's okay. What if like overnight we just have like a sick-ass oak? From your olive tree? We're just climbing it. And this is just we in the collective, Randy,

don't parse it. Are you gonna start making your own oil, bringing it in for us? I can't put down the cup. Okay. I'm fucking sick, I'm done. Okay. If you see me out, you know I'm zooted off oil.

Okay. Like double cupped up. I was thinking more olive oil from your olive tree. That's what I'm saying. Okay, got it. The omegas are just flushing my system right now. That's so sick. Yeah.

I've made a change in my life. Aw. I'm no longer using spray avocado oil for eggs. What are you using? Just butter, dog. Yeah, I'm a butter boy. I'm using heavily salted butter, which I don't know how that's going to play with like the real butterheads out there. I made pancakes again this weekend.

I hope you just carried gold. They were so fire. I'm using some French shit, David. That's fine. But they tell me that today on a Ville days. Ha ha ha Lots of salt to David. We didn't Randy makes you did some cooking. I mean I made an omelet. It was fine Why did at f5? FPM can I ask you an omelet question? What a night your omelet look good Why did you did you ever think about including the the tomatoes and the other stuff in the omelet?

You did it on the side. I just wanted a ham and cheese omelet. Okay. So I just had the spinach and tomatoes as a little sauteed. It was like continental breakfast quality. It was fine. It did look a little bit moister, more moist than some I've seen recently.

Yeah. Bullshit. And mine was actually like semi-circle, not just like folded like yes That's easy. That's easy way to do it West Texas on what looking ass Yours is like entry-level Omelette style next you're gonna say that you're trying to you're stealing my way most swag that I had this weekend to probably oh I went before you way mode bitch now you had less mo It wasn't that I going to say it. I'm

waymo situation. So, Chelsea and I took a waymo home from Meadow Ranchos the other night. Um pulls up. Dave's got a question. Dave, I just want to get this out of the way. How difficult is it to get a waymo? Is there a cost? Uh is it cheaper than getting an Uber? And how long did you have to wait? Okay. Those are my three questions I want answered. So, this is the first time since the option has been added to Uber um that I've taken an Uber. On the way there, traditional Uber driver on the way home

got a Waymo. And it just said like, you have to like opt in or it says, do you want to accept a Waymo ride? And I said, absolutely fucking loathely. It took a little bit to get there. It got held up actually in the parking lot over here by this Chevron. It was driving in circles. It got held up, actually in the parking lot over here by this Chevron. It was driving in circles.

It got held up there for some reason. I don't know what it was doing. Well, I mean, probably for the same reason that the one Waymo is going in circles in the Matt's parking lot the night that I was there and they couldn't figure out how to move it. The lady outside in the Matt shirt was so bummed. She was like, I don't know what to do.

We waited about 10 minutes, but I wasn't about to cancel that Waymo. Was it cruising for bad Bitches. Yeah, I was looking for a bad SUV it pulls up stops and I go up there and I'm trying to open the door I won't open then I noticed that there's an unlock door button right there on the app. So I had to unlock it from the phone I Heard about back to your question. Sorry 650 was what it cost me

$650 six dollars a lot of money. $6.47 to be exact. I would have walked if it was $650. There's not even an option for a tip, Dave. It was great. This is, there's the gig economy is dying. So I get in and I hit start right right there on the screen. And then they give like a, like there's a voice that comes

over the speaker. It says like, you you know welcome to Waymo this how it's gonna work blah blah blah and then it says like sit back and select your music you can see it said sing as loud as you want no one's listening bullshit so we just start scrolling I think it's probably like satellite radio I'm not sure we just start scrolling look at for stations and we just started bopping and it was just so fucking fun the way way it just like cruised through the parking lot. It doesn't go over the speed limit, but it does like accelerate quickly to get there.

I don't, I never felt impatient the whole time. It was just so, it's the most fun I've ever had on the road. It was awesome. That can't be true. We listened to Kendrick on the way. Now you, wow. I know you've had more fun on the road. I don't know, man.

It was a lot of fun It was fun. Really do I answer all your questions? What else did you ask? That's you got close enough. It's okay Interesting. It was so say I didn't feel unsafe at all. It did a great job driving It was just it was a trip. It was a fucking trip I'm sure in a year from now like we're all gonna be used to it's like gonna be second nature But for now, it's a lot of fun. Is it fun to like think about the the guy who just moved here from like Seattle trying to restart his life that gets paid on Uber? Who's job you just took?

That part's not fun. I don't enjoy that part. I didn't think about that angle. But I do enjoy the part of it where there's not a driver in the vehicle and you can is just fucking sick watching the thing drive itself and just back there chilling, man. It's like a little- That video you sent us, you were way too excited to say some slurs in the back of that Uber. Yeah. Some slurs?

Yeah. What do you mean? You've been drinking. You know how you get when you've been drinking. I've been drinking. You get super slurry. You can drink those skinnies. Shut up, dude, don't say that.

Come on, don't say that. Rainey, did you have fun in yours? Dylan's not racist. I did, I did. I did some fun content in there. We saw. It was a good time. Did you see Dylan's video and you're like, I can do this? I did see Dylan just get it

and then I was going from my dinner to go meet up someone else and then I requested it and then- Someone else he says. Gordo at Whitehorse. And then it popped up and said, would you like to do Waymo? I'm like, oh, I'm gonna fucking, I'm stealing this. You started, your content mind started cooking.

Immediately, I'm like, hell yeah, I'm doing a Waymo too tonight. And then like from this get go, I'm gonna do content this whole ride. So I barely even really noticed the driving because I was too busy focusing on my next content. It's so fun. This guy's just focused on content.

I will say the music options I wasn't as big of a fan of because they give you like 10 different stations you can choose from. And then you get like five skips in each one. That sucks, just give me an aux. Exactly, I don't know if there was a Bluetooth option I was too busy trying to figure out. I didn't notice that.

This is why I just bring a Bluetooth speaker everywhere I go. Yeah. For situations just like this. The music, I didn't even turn the volume up and it started playing really loud. We were just jamming. It was fucking crazy, man.

You guys gotta do it. I'll do it. Yeah, I just don't take that many Ubers these days. I don't really go anywhere. Yeah. Okay. You know how you felt with two kids under five at your house recently?

That's Dave in my entire life. Understood. Understood. It was awesome. Can't wait to do it again. I'm ready, I'm ready. I might sell my car. I have to Uber to the airport on Thursday morning

and I'm really hoping it's a Waymo. I think that's out of its range. How the fuck is the airport out of the range? That's like the number one spot they should be driving people to. I think they're just focused on before they expand to make sure they get it right in the little, it includes some sort of-

I'm more of a fan of shrinking. Central and South Austin. I don't think it gets on the highway at all actually. I've never seen one on the highway now that you mention it. I think it's just the city. I don't think I would want to highway at all actually. I've never seen one on the highway now that you mention it. I think it's just the city. I don't think I would want to be on the highway in a way, Mo.

Yeah, I went from South Congress to East Sixth. I'm trying to think of like, if he picked me up in my apartment complex, I would have to walk all the way to the front of my apartment complex because it doesn't have arms to hit the code for the gate. I'm not sure that you're even in within range yet. Yeah, but like-

You can look up the coverage map. If you're in a gated community and you have a code, it can't get in. That's true. There are no hands to touch the code. Interesting. I love it. I'm ready.

I feel I just feel bad for the guy. He's getting his gun lifted off him It's just bad. Yeah I do have concerns for And I need to learn the names of this cast before I go on oysters clams and cockles the Game of Thrones podcast Yeah, they don't like that when you're over like that one the masseuse from the old seasons. Um when she found out about Greg

Gary Whatever is he wanted to call him? Oh yes. Like I get why she's fearful of her life. Belinda. I understand. Belinda, yeah. I understand why she's fearful of her life. That would unsettle me as well. Do Tim and Greg slash Gary slash whatever his name is, do they need to have a conversation and they need to they need to tell Tim like, hey, instead of shooting yourself at this really luxurious hotel, what if you just hit out in Thailand for a little bit? Well, you need to see what's gonna what's coming down.

Like here's the deal. You know, it's bad, but find out what they got on you and then make your decision. Like you need to be maybe moving around some assets if you haven't done that already. I know there's talk of your assets being frozen, fine. But let's figure it out first before we go to extreme measures and extreme being blowing your brains out in the room next to where your family's sleeping. Also, maybe talk to your wife about the situation. Or your son who works for the company who is clearly willing to do fucking anything.

Yeah. No. I feel like I would talk to him and be like, all right, we gotta get dirty right now. I'm fucked. Here's the reasons why. Instead, you're just leaving him with that pile of stuff to discover later.

He's just doing on it, man. Every scene he's just like going through it. So dude, dude dropped like 50k on a lie by the way because Piper, so Piper doesn't even have a thesis. Yeah. I love that how he's just kind of like, yeah, okay. He does no reaction to it because he's just got so much bigger shit going on. He didn't even notice it probably. But it's kind of a big deal. When Piper was talking to him about it and after the mom had gone off on her in the room, not at the table, why didn't like when he started singing his altar boy song, if I'm the daughter, that's my opportunity to pounce on the dad and be

like, dad, tell her she's being unreasonable, whatever. And instead she's just like, I'm leaving. Like you're botching this. You got to get dad on your side. Cause he's not that far. He's right there. This dude will do anything at this point. He's right there.

And he knows he might be about to check out. So he probably wants to leave things right with everybody. So like that would be your time to get something out of Pops. If I am a parent and I have a daughter who wants to move to Thailand, not Taiwan, and then my other son who's in high school is going to an all-night party with some people He doesn't know on a yacht that is not his I Am probably requesting that he retrieves his phone from the hotel lobby before going to set all-night party

That's fair. Yeah, That's fair. Good point. My parents did let me go to a nightclub when I was in eighth grade in Mexico with my older cousins where I had my first alcoholic drink. Oh man. No one's cooler than the eighth grader ordering a sex on the beach. You were on Cabeza watch. I had two. Damn.

I was fucking faded dude eighth grade Didn't drink for a long time after that, but I felt like I had to look cool. Sorry to sex on the beach No, you did the right thing. It was on the Vanga boys song had just come out On the beach Oh different song I don't know if it was Vanga boys. That's we like to party that you were doing. This is the hookup episode. Everyone just wants to go up here. Good thing Tim didn't realize his sons were kissing. That's about a teaspoon, not Venga Boys.

You've been kind of building up to some kind of incest happening with all the commentary. I didn't think it was as bad as like, I mean, like, look, I would have not done that, but it could have been worse. I'm not going to make out with my brother. No, they make out. I'm not going to, I'm not, I would kiss for a few seconds. Like a peck, a peck is just like, you can move on from that. Touching lips for that long though. So they were like the island boys Yes, a great point could pull But what happens to island?

boys, oh They broke up by the way Thailand boys island boys. Oh, what a talent boy Thailand boy Jacqueline stole the hot health guy health wellness guy from her friend Lori. How electric were the Russians that proceeded that hookup though? Did you recognize the bald one? No. The bald one? He wasn't a bald one.

It looked like Noho Hank took all the testosterone available to him. Dylan, what if I told you, and I have not checked this, but I'm almost positive that he's a fucking thin. I fucking hate thins. Thin? He's a thin. From? Game of Thrones. Oh.

Oh yeah, dude, I totally noticed that. Beyond the wall? I never would have figured that out, but that makes sense. You remember the thins? Yeah. They eat their cannibals. Yeah. Yeah. That when they went back to the hotel room like I don't think I'll ever have a scenario in my life where like I'm partying that hard. They were partying like you do when you're 23

and you can like go out and do anything you want. It made me uncomfortable how much like everyone was just chugging liquor in this. Even Lachlan was just pulling, I don't know what he was drinking, it was like a clear bottle. He was just, everyone was just pounding liquor. Yeah, that's part of late 30s, 40, early 40s, is like seeing scenes like that

and like instead of enjoying the scene and being like, this is great television, just being like, Oh, I could never do that. And like looking at your wife, dude, when the sun started coming up, I was like, man, they just wasted an entire day of their vacation to be hungover. That sucks for them. It's like the hangover is awful. I'm like, they just, that's the real thought process. It's so pathetic.

I'm happy that, uh, Oh man,, I really gotta learn these names before OCC. I'm happy that hot girlfriend hooked up with younger son. Chloe. Chloe hooked up with. Laughlin. Yeah. I'm glad that that was him. I didn't think the older son deserved it, so it made me very happy that he did not get her. Randy, this is a win. I don't know if you're watching the

show. This is a win for a magic trick guy. Okay, he impressed her with some magic tricks. And she's like, I want to sleep with this guy with the does the really shitty magic. I don't I don't. I'm not magic trick. Yeah, you are. You're about as close as they come. I could do a good, you know, maybe magic trick guy and origami guy are closely related. Yeah, you're in the ballpark. He just gave you a Micah-esque okay.

Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. But the real scene that stole the episode was definitely Walton Goggins talking to Sam. Rockwell. Rockwell. Yeah. Rick being in Bangkok excited me. So did he bring him a gun?

Yeah. That's what I took it out later. Okay. Yeah. Are you looking to that bag? Like when the world is in that bag. Yeah. So he brought him a gun. I didn't wonder that.

And he needs to use it. It needs him to keep his schedule clear for the next night too, for when he confronts homeboy. Can I say from like an aesthetic purpose or a point of view, the bar scene that they were in, I really liked that. I wanna be in that situation where I'm just drinking like one or two in that dimly lit bar. Came in male tees.

I have the same feeling when I saw Rick drinking Dewar's last night, that bar. It became a male tease. I have the same feeling when I saw Rick drinking Dewar's last night. Yeah. That I get when I watch Mad Men. Like it's just like, oh man, two fingers of whiskey sounds awesome right now. I almost want to like have Sally like

watch an episode before me of something so that when I get that craving, the second I see someone doing it, she can just hand me a glass and I can actually make good on it. You're so like real time beverage service. Yeah. Yeah. Live in game because it always looks good, but you never actually go to your bar and pour anything. It just sounds amazing at that in that exact moment. Yeah. Have you ever, have you just hypothetically speaking, have you ever wanted to

feel like a young Asian girl getting pounded? That hasn't crossed my mind. Hasn't crossed mine either. Yeah. Dude, not even, not only just getting pounded, just getting absolutely trampled. No, just getting throttled. Paying for it even. And just to be, uh, just openly sharing all that information with your boy. I mean, you got to know the person you're giving a gun to, to

presumably kill somebody, you got to know everything. No secrets in that game. It's true. In gun running game, Dylan, there's no secrets. I like that he's also in Thailand escaping stuff. So what I'm learning from this season, yeah, right? That's a great idea. Give me the spin-off of that dude's previous five years. That might be the best spin-off idea I've heard yet. But like, so the move is if we get indicted for anything, we just go to Thailand? Like immediately? I think I'm okay with that plan. Is it not an extradition country? There's probably a truth. Yeah, they, I'm almost certainly. But come on, it's Thailand. There's a lot in that episode. How many more do we have? I

think there's nine total episodes, maybe ten. I think we're only halfway through the season. Wow. Okay. I don't want to hear, I don't want to hear any more complaints about nothing happening. I was very satiated with this episode and I think it was enough to move the needle for anyone. So I'm assuming these street drugs that they took, that was some form of molly. I was hoping they'd reveal it because I was kinda hoping it would be two CB. Mm hmm. Uh just so you could have some little ball now or like uh his is how it's affecting them. You know, yeah,

you have to, you have to, you have to ride for the hardest drug that you survived. You have to. And when I say survive, I mean, I mean survive. You taking street drugs in Thailand or what? First thing I'll say to Chelsea is they got to at least ask what the drug is that they're taking. You don't just take a random pill that someone puts in front of your face. If I'm a young single guy and Chloe walks up with a bag of drugs and asks if I want to take one, I'm taking one. The exception to that, of course, is if you find a random pill around the Grand Ex office, you do take that. It wasn't random.

I Googled it and I found out it was Adderall and I split it with someone I work with. What if you're with Avicii? Okay. Rest in peace. Then you got to do it. Especially if you're not a Visa. Yeah.

It's like a Molly, right? That they took. It was giving Molly. Were you a little worried that... I'll pop a Molly, I'm sweating. Yeah, I've seen you. Yeah. Like Rick Pitino. What are you gonna ask?

St. John's? Will's all in on St. John's. I'm fucking all in, dude. I read one New York Times article on that St. John's team. I'm in. I was in before they had, I read one New York Times article on that St. John's team. I'm in I was in before they I even knew they had Rick Pitino Piper Dandy Uh is our let's do an office bracket I'll do an office bracket with you

What if it's just me and you? Heads up I'm doing a bracket and I will also be sports betting in Vegas this weekend. I'm very excited So Chelsea didn't do anything We're pretty sure Chelsea's maintained. I think she did all the Rick. I think she did. Okay. She's too much of a real one, man She looked 16 when she did her I Glitter and like her big spring break looking t-shirt. She looked like a yeah high school kid Yeah, like a cool high school kid. What's the older brother's name?

Saxon Saxon Has some I think I think he's generally well-meaning But he's got a little predatory stuff to him Like hey, don't get too drunk. Don't do the drugs. Let the girls do the drugs and get sloppy. It's like, hey, just like maybe don't do that. His character has a little bit of early 2000s Steve Stifler in it. Yeah. Where it's like, all right, didn't age well. Yeah. If I'm a single guy and I'm out with other single guys and they're telling me to not drink something because the ladies need to get drunk and not us, that's the guy that I'm not talking to the rest of the night. I'm like, I'm a single guy and I'm out with other single guys and they're telling me to not drink something because the ladies need to get drunk and not us, that's the guy that I'm not talking to

the rest of the night. I'm like, I'm gonna make sure that I'm as far away from him as possible. And I'm probably gonna, I'm probably gonna not tell the girls directly that he's a creep, but I think I would, I wouldn't help, I wouldn't wingman for him. Do this.

Yeah, we have a call the police. Yeah, we have a classic creep on our hands. Anything else from this episode? I don't think so. I'm glad Belinda consented and seemingly got laid by- Belinda got laid, yeah. I was kind of hoping for an over the top sex scene there. Like him just rippling.

Kinda yeah, come on man. He's a nice guy. You can't make no dude. I make they're a great couple. I really hope that she lives through this season and stays in Thailand with that dude and forever her son's arriving in the next episode. I believe I kind of hope she doesn't make it to the next season. No, they won't. That character has run its course I think.

I think she's dead at the end of the season. That's my actual guess. I had one more thought. I had one more thought and it's escaping me. So man, they knew what they were doing when he had that Duke t-shirt on and put that gun to his head that was yes there's somebody in there like yep all right march madness starts this week let's make this air right before march madness starts give uh the perfect screenshot for everyone to use when when duke gets knocked out of the tourney it's great we gotta talk jacklyn jacklyn jacklyn did the most fucked up thing you've done, anyone's done all season. Stole her friend's man. Stole her single friend's man that they had been promoting her to hook up with the entire season so far. And she's married. She knows that she's trying to wingman for her friend. It's the most messed up thing you could do in that

scenario. It's shitty. Lori had, she's had ample opportunity to make a move. And this, if this night was, she wasn't gonna make it happen on this night of all nights where they were dancing together and drinking together in the pool. She wasn't gonna make a move. So Jacqueline's like, I fuck it. I'm not saying what she did is right.

She's fucked up. But Jacqueline is just, she's so in her head about being old probably because she's famous and thinks she's gonna get like aged out of roles or something, but she's so in her head about being old, probably because she's famous and thinks she's gonna get like aged out of roles or something, but she's so in her head about it that she's just acting out. And her husband, I believe is a younger man, like a decade younger. Oh, yeah, he is.

Yes. No, that's not her husband. No, that's Leslie Bibb's husband. Yeah. Who Leslie Bibb's husband in real life is Sam Rockwell. Interesting. No, I thought the whole thing, I thought we were going to get like a, so when she's dancing and she's, you know, glances over at those three young ladies, like watching her and kind of being judgy, I was like, wait, is this a,

she's feeling insecure or like, cause she's older or are they going to take a picture, recognize her, take a picture and send it into like Dumois. Oh yeah, I didn't even think about that. Whatever those, TMZ. That's kind of where I thought it was going. And when her phone vibrated after they went to bed, in quotes, I was like, oh, she's going to get a notification from like her manager or her agent.

Like, hey, by the way, you're just fucking grinding. You're getting sandwiched by these Russians and it's all over the place here Makes me curious how famous her character is supposed to be back home She got recognized at the pool by those older folks and giving daytime television. Yeah. Oh wow, that's harsh David What daytime television? Yeah It's a C Lister maybe back home Who says no to a Sam Rockwell, Walton Goggins, true detective season. I mean, I've got that.

I love Goggins in that scene. He was just like in total disbelief. He was speechless. He just kept. Okay. I was very Micah reacting to us on touching base. I wanna see, I wanna see like the behind the scenes of like them being like, no, look dumber.

No, no, look more shocked. And like, I just wanna see what Walton Goggins went through from like, just from an acting perspective because the dumbfounded look on his face was perfect. Yeah, that whole scene makes me really wanna go to a dimly lit bar and drink. Yeah. Yeah.

Let's do it. And like. Yeah. Let's do it. And like plan shit. Let's do it. We don't have much to do this today. What's the best dimly lit bar you can go drink at in Austin? I don't do I don't get out enough to answer to that. Texas dies now. So can I go if you want, can I go bougie vibes that is equating it to sure the place where we had the retail therapy party. Ah, that might be the perfect spot. I was trying to recreate that.

Yeah, that's a good point. Howard's is way too deamily bled. They didn't let J bone in cause he was wearing shorts. That's not a Howard's stuff. That's just a bar bar. Howard's fucking stock. It's not a cock. That's like a lounge.

Howard's is the only bar in Austin where they rope off tables that no one's sitting at and then make everyone congregate to the middle of the restaurant, not being able to sit down. It's so stupid. It is annoying. You're not a club, you're a bar.

It's also, as far as clientele. Yeah. I'm not rubbing shoulders. I don't really want to rub shoulders with a lot of people that go to Howard's often. It's a douchey spot. I'll co-sign that, Dave. I freak with Rosie's in the back, the wine bar.

I haven't done that. It's great. If you have, like, let's say the babysitter shows up like 30 minutes early and you're like, I gotta get out of this house. Or let's say dinner gets pushed back. You're going downtown. Go stop at Rosie's for a quick glass of wine

and a quick small bite. You'll be surprised at the prices and you'll be very happy with the space. Can we just clip that and just tag them in a pie? That's just telling you dude. We'll just get the best ad read for Rosie. It's for being of the restaurant group that we're talking about. It is probably for me the best bang for your buck and it's an enjoyable little spot. It's also a place where I last ordered a glass of wine

and she asked, do you know what that's like? And I just said, yeah, of course. Having never tried that before. Yeah, duh. What was crazy about it? I don't know. It was just a white wine from Germany and I didn't wanna sound like I didn't know ball.

So I was like, yeah, no, I love these. I named my son Fritz, okay? My son is named Fritz. I'm a big fan of Gruners. I don't know if it's a Gruner. Do we wanna tackle this next one? This next one on okay? Yeah, my son is named Fritz. I'm a big fan of Gruner's. I don't know if it's a Gruner. We want to tackle this next one. Yeah, I do. Because I think I have some issues with your ranking that I'd like to talk out. I received just one note on my ranking. So a trend over the weekend was people started ranking days of the week. Of course, you have Monday, you have Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Familiar. Oh, those two days? Unfamiliar. It seems the consensus is that Saturday is the best day of the week. And then from there, a lot of mixed opinions. Here, I would like to share my list with everyone, if you would allow me. Number one, I have Saturday. Number two, Friday. Three, Thursday. And then I got Sunday and then

Wednesday, Tuesday, and Monday is my least favorite day of the week. And I think this is a perfect list. So why did you... So the difference between the original tweet that went viral from Icy Vert, you switched up the Thursday-Sunday ranking. Can you explain that for me? Yeah, Thursday is a good vibe day for me. Thursday's like alright tomorrow's Friday. The weekend is staring us in the face and you got the have the next few days to look forward to and that makes that day exciting for me. Sunday I get like last last day of a vacation vibe from it like yeah, you're still on

vacation, but you know the next day you're just returning to the real world. And so you don't fully enjoy it. You can't go out and get ripped because you'll be hung over traveling the next day. It's just the impending Monday is like what takes away from the Sunday. You should know this best will you have a brand called Sunday scares. I see no scenario where Thursday is better than Sunday given that I have to do a bunch of shit that I don't want to do on Thursdays normally. It's just the mental,

it's just mental. Sunday, I'm not saying I don't like Sundays, but it's not as good as Thursday for me. I mean, whatever man. I will never understand why people think Tuesdays are worse than Mondays. Like, I've had it. I've had people explain it to me. I hear your case for it. But for me in life, like Monday is just worse. Like, it's just a worst day. Monday stinks.

And once I'm finished with like the workday on Monday, it feels like it's smoother sailing from there. I'm like, all right, I got the shittiest day out of the week. I get to, you know, kind of coast into the weekend now. It's hard for me to even rank days of the week. Like every day is a new opportunity. So it's like, okay, it's a winding road. That too.

Why would I why would one be better than the other? Like I, I have the same amount of time for each day. I'm gonna get up, I'm gonna make the most out of it. I'm gonna get my 15 minutes of sun. I'm gonna be in bed at 10. I'm gonna have my blue light blockers on. I'm gonna think about what I'm gonna do the next day. And then the day after that. And it's just every day is like a buildup

for the next day. Or I just wrote it in depth on Twitter. So your list would just say T1 and then list all the days. Yeah. Okay. Like there's a reason they're in that order. There's a reason they put Sunday as the first day of the week. There's a reason Monday is the second day of the week.

Like we don't know better than the people who invented the calendar. You understand what I'm saying? I didn't think about that angle, Dave. The Mayans? The Gregores. invented the calendar you understand anything about that angle Dave the Mayans the Gregors who do you come up with like Sunday through Saturday on our store let's go the boys my list is perfect no notes I responded to you on Twitter, I think it's, you'll, that's, I'll leave it there. That's it. Oh, I forgot about this video, dude. You need to use this video more. It's a good reaction.

I'm waiting for Rainey to figure out that he just needs to refresh the page. It's a refresh. Fresh. There we go. That's so good. Why do you use that more? I don't know. It's because it's like I don't want to overdo it, but it is I used it it a couple weeks or maybe a month ago. You should use that. Can I make a content pitch? I had an idea over the weekend that's pretty easy to put into play. Is it the one you shared?

No. No, that's another idea. I was just cooking during the wildfires outside while I was playing fetch with my dog. Just thinking of content ideas. I mean we do this weekend in fun. Why don't we just take an old video of us doing party stuff every Friday and just post it with this weekend and fun and maybe the music behind it and that's like slam's laptop or out of office. Like it seems like a no brainer to me. So like the video of me pouring the margarita at Matt's like and just have the this weekend and fun music behind it. The one of us at Lafitte's when you told that joke and Dave gave the the over exaggerated laugh

response. Yeah, it's one of my all time. Why don't we just do it? Let's let's just let's just do it. One of my all time favorite. Let's do it. Alright. A new initiative. Thank you, Will for your contribution today. That's good. Thank you.

Well, that's what happens when you take a shot. Alright, let's make it happen. All right, guys. Good show, dude. If you're still listening, congrats. You made it. And if you're still listening, dropping tomorrow on the normal feed is our exclusive bit madness episode. We'll see you there. Bye.
