That was clean, man.
Circling Back podcast.
What?
The Madel Rantos dropped.
That was clean from my...
You didn't know he had it like that yet.
From our friend here.
You didn't know that that was going to happen today, did you?
I mean, I didn't want to like throw it too much out.
I'm like, hey, you got to hit the...
Yeah.
Battles drop.
We already told them like, hey, by the way, the Battle Toad Bad Boys
is going to be on the show today.
Right.
It's a circling back podcast.
It's Monday morning.
I stated that earlier.
I'm here. I'm Dave. Welcome to the show.
For everybody who found us through Business Insider, welcome.
Dylan Schivry.
Excited to be here, first of all.
Second of all, it's just a weird feel in the office this morning, man.
I think it was weird at all.
60% of the regulars are out.
Got Jaden holding it down in the bullpen right now and our new friend Ryan over here.
It's just a different feel. I like the feel. It's just different.
That's all I'm saying.
Yeah.
I got in
Dylan was watching like
Wake up Austin or Good Morning
Austin one of those like local
morning shows which I was like okay
they had somebody from Fogo to Chow
on it's kind of my go to go to man
Is it really?
Because nothing is important
It's just good background sound
and visuals
And yeah they had a little
Fogo to Chowals
You don't think traffic on the 8th is important
You know
It affects my life and certainly
We're under flash flood advisories
That's not important
important, I guess, to you? It's easy watching. It's kind of my point. Is that what you watch when
you drink coffee in bed? Yeah. It is? Yeah. Do you follow any of the hosts on the
Instagram? I do not. I don't believe you for a minute. I don't. I promise. I bet you did.
I don't. I don't. I never have. Okay, good. I don't care to. Just jump testing you.
I'm sure they're fine people. I just don't, you know, I'm not that dialed in.
Okay. You just watch it when you're drinking coffee in bed. Hey, ladies and gentlemen,
producing the show today filling in for Randall Trumbacki who is
I guess he's going
Is he across the pond?
Is he already there?
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know what that weeb is doing.
We got Ryan, producer Ryan.
Hi, Ryan.
What's up, Gus?
How are we doing?
Man.
We're doing great.
That's good, dear.
Yeah, we appreciate you stepping in.
You're a friend, former co-worker of Danny Rags, Dan Regster.
Yeah, he's.
a pretty cool dude taught me a lot of what i know so appreciate no no i knew dan we knew dan
before the tattoos we knew dan before the lighthouse before the lighthouse we knew dan yes when he all he
wanted to do was just bulk up and lift heavy weights and he still wants to do he still does that
yeah but that was all he wanted to do i like to think i was a big part of getting dan in uh the media
business did you hire him i did so yeah you probably were yeah he probably a very part he worked for
the golf channel for golf channel he was a golf channel he was already turn or or employed
Yeah, for a time.
He definitely had a few toes in the water already.
You did change his life, though.
Hopefully for the better.
I don't know.
I don't know, man.
Nobody really knows with you.
That's true.
It's hard to say.
Hey, we got a special guest today coming to us from Parts Unknown.
Looking just, looking locked in.
It's Michael Winer.
Maybe a little sad.
Hello.
Hi.
I'm not sad.
It's the best day of the week.
It's Monday.
And to make it quick, correct.
you didn't just hire Dan once you hired him twice that's true great point I did after he was laid off
which I did not have any any stake in whatsoever I was not a part of that conversation I was a part of
the conversation and bring him back on why would they serve steak when they're laying someone off
getting laid off twice by one company's top it's fine yeah it's fine had nothing to do with
performance Dan Dan Dan Dan's the man
Yes, he is. Takes a lot to get hired back. Well, hi, Micah. Where are you coming from?
My office at home. Do you have any decorations? No, no. This is also the guest room. And, yeah, I don't have a very pleasant, visually pleasant backdrop. I apologize.
That's okay. Micah hit me with a text this morning, said, hey, I just want to talk. Can I kind of pop on? I said, absolutely.
that's always a must.
Before we get into it, I just want to remind everybody this week.
Tomorrow, specifically on Patreon, we're doing cold calls.
You might be saying you guys did cold calls like two weeks ago.
We're running it back.
It was really good, and we don't have Randall, and we thought we got five Tuesdays this month.
Let's do extra cold calls because they were so good.
So I'm going to post the form.
You can submit your coal call application, and maybe we'll give you a call.

we filled in for Will to Freeze.
I think we did a good job.
It was a fun show.
It was good.
I do it like once every two or three years, and I always enjoy it.
Barrett knows how to run a show, man.
He's a pro.
He's a pro.
He's a pro.
We talked all things men's fashion for guys in their, not just their early 40s, mid-40s,
but also like, you know, your 30s and 20s.
We covered everything, I think.
It was a good time.
We've got theme week coming up.
The final Tuesday on Patreon,
final Tuesday of the month.
We're doing a roommate week and the stories are coming in.
People are emailing Dave at washtmedia.com.
You can do that too.
Any roommate story.
I got to say a lot of them are just blowing my mind.
Like,
and it doesn't,
none of it's shocking,
but like,
oh yeah,
I had a roommate who did something similar.
Just weird behavior.
Some of it,
I'm like,
man,
maybe there was a time where I was the weird roommate.
There almost certainly was.
Everybody has done weird stuff.
God knows living with you's got to be tough.
I'm a great roommate.
For sure.
I've seen what you do to that couch.
Can you stop, dude?
You break the couch like every other day.
We got a guy in here, Ryan.
He doesn't know me very well.
He's going to think I'm some kind of sick.
Yeah, that's my first impression now.
He doesn't J.D. Vance the couch.
He just breaks it when he sits on it.
Go straight through it.
Yeah.
It's never happened.
You've broken the couch.
The couch, it's not broken.
It just slips because it's a cheap couch.
It was already broken.
Yeah.
Toilet seats all jacked up because you sat down on it with that fat ass.
I did break a toilet seat recently, Ryan.
That part is true.
You didn't have to.
telling me that. Yeah. You've got to have
I appreciate the honesty though. Yeah, you know.
Ryan gets it's what we do here.
Yeah. Um,
you just jump into this weekend and fun.
Micah, do you want to stick? Can you do this weekend and fun?
Sure. I didn't know what your time constraints were.
No, no. I, I have nothing to add.
It sounds like you had an awesome weekend.
Sick. I mean, it was actually pretty great. I'm still, you know, quite frankly,
sad about the spurs.
So, emotionally, I'm not there.
Let's recap this weekend fun,
presented by our friends at Pancho Outdoors.
Bro, let's go out this weekend.
There's a crazy event happening.
I like to turn up.
Bro, there's a crazy event happening.
We had the party, and it was lit.
I got yelled out by a prostitute.
Let's just go have fun and they go with it.
This weekend of fun.
Pontchor Outdoors.
It's a match made in heaven.
I was rocking poncho.
all weekend got fathers day coming up get something cool for dad freaking love poncho i mean the western
shirts are goaded they're my favorite shirt it's the the long sleeve button down with the
pearl snaps it's it's soft and lightweight it's a denim but it's not like the heavy uncomfortable
kind it's actually extremely comfortable the marfa is a light wash one that david and i both have we
love it it is summertime though you're probably going to want something a little bit lighter they got you
covered there too.
Yeah, they've got the
lightweight hoodies, which you and I both wear.
I wore mine last week.
It's got the sun protection in it.
And it's just, you can wear it out even when it's hot and humid
because it's just very breathable.
It's lightweight.
If you're looking to protect yourself from the sun,
good yard work shirt as well.
They have a lighter weight.
Pearl Snop button down as well.
Yeah.
It's great for the summertime.
Roll those sleeves up.
Good look.
Functional.
Once you order one and try it on, you'll probably order a bunch more.
I wear it all the time.
I've got so many different ones.
Their hats are really cool.
Don't sleep on the graphic teas.
They're great.

Micah, let's start with you.
Weekend and fun.
We had my three-year-old had a swim lesson on Saturday.
It's not going well.
She hates the water and screams for her mother who wasn't there.
So that was great.
Didn't really do much else.
Saturday, got some rest, got hyped for the spurs.
That came crashing down.
Sunday, we went to church and, you know, hit a little brunch afterwards, which was lovely.
And other than that, you know, just a lot of rest.
Felt good.
You look good.
Thank you, David.
I got a bad haircut the other day.
Is that what?
What's the hat?
Oh.
Oh, damn.
It's like, it's like.
really, I'm not going to out
the man who cut my hair.
I'm kind of mad at the
listeners of this podcast who didn't
do enough tagging to
of the guy on Instagram
that I talked about.
San Antonio.
Yeah, in San Antonio.
And then my hair was just absurd, so I had to go
get a haircut. I was hoping he would DM me
and say, like, come down and get
faded. Didn't happen.
Why don't you reach out to him? Yeah.
Yeah, I probably should.
but now I'm I'm I'm high and tight now so it'll be a couple months before I need
need his services but we'll bring it back did you go to like um did you go to great clips or
something no no I went to a fine upstanding barber who's cut my hair before I just I probably
didn't give him good enough instructions we'll just leave it at that it's I'll take the L on this
one all right you didn't go to sexy scissors I did not do they have like
like a breast-round version of haircuts sexy scissors is that a real place yeah i think i think it closed but
it was a place in austin for a very long time and it was scantily clad young ladies who would cut your
hair that's a level of that's a level of perversion and horniness that i just hope never even enters my
world i think once you once you're like you know what like you can't you can't take a 30-minute
break from looking at you know i need i need at all times even when i get my haircut if you you you you
you seriously need treatment.
Yeah.
If that's like, and I can imagine someone
be like, no, dude, my, the,
I followed her over from Supercuts.
Like, she just does my hair.
She knows my hair the best,
so I followed her over to sexy scissors.
Yeah.
There's nothing sexy about scissors.
I don't think you go there expecting, like,
a great cut.
It's just like, you just cut my hair and then the rest of it,
you know, that's why I'm here.
I, uh, I recently unsubscribed or left,
uh, my friends at scissors and scotch because I,
well, A, my, my, my hairdresser left.
And B, I realize I never, they build in like a fee for their bar and their alcohol offered to members, which I was.
I never used it once.
I didn't, I was like, you know, there was never a time I went there like, God, I could use a drink.
You could use a scotch right now.
Yeah, I could use a nice scotch as I watch her cut away my, what's left of my hair.
It's just, I'd leave their sad.
It wouldn't be good.
Oh, we lost them.
While getting a haircut really is not optimal either.
You know, there's a few barbershops.
I'm sure it's a national thing, but.
they'll offer you a beer with your haircut.
And sometimes if you get faded on a Friday, you're like, yeah, I'd like a beer.
But then, like, you're holding your beer and there's hair flying.
And it's like, do I drink the whole thing before the cut?
I can't drink it during.
And then your man is, you know, cutting you up.
You've got to put the beer down.
Now it's warm.
Like, it's really not a, I mean, it's a nice gesture, but in practice, it really doesn't work very well.
I'd rather them offer me like a nice cup of cold brew coffee or something.
thing, you know?
There you go.
Also, Micah's security cam just quit on him.
Yeah, Micah, yeah, yeah, your cam.
We can hear you.
You sound great, but you went, you went black on us.
Okay.
Well, I can hear you guys, and this may be the road we have to go down.
That's okay.
My wife, I believe, is on a call downstairs, so my apologies.
As long as I sound.
Oh, are we fighting for Wi-Fi?
Perhaps.
We got a salesman for you.
It comes by our office every now and then.
Best damn salesman I've ever seen.
He's relentless, yeah.
Dylan?
My weekend, yes.
Pretty low-key also.
Parks had two different birthday parties to go to,
so I was doing a lot of driving around town,
dropping them off, picking them up kind of thing.
Can I request a follow-up on Parks?
Because I know there's people wanting to know about his last baseball game.
Yes.
Last baseball game, he played better than he did the one before.
They got one hit.
He was not the hit.
The one hit that they got was a check swing infield single.
So they got mowed down.
They got run ruled by a shout-out Northwest Little League.
Don't shout out the team that run-ruled y'all.
Dude, I grew up playing there, man.
They got some ballplayers.
He got on base, though.
Were they playing at the days to confuse ballpark?
No, that's Pony League.
He's not quite there yet.
He's still a little leaguer.
Yeah, they got run-ruled.
And he did get on base, did not score.
I think the final was 11 to 1.
They got, like I said, run-ruled.
So a tough ending to an otherwise pretty fun season for him.
Sometimes you just run into a guy who's just got it going that day or a couple.
Yeah.
And there's nothing you could do.
After I dropped Parks off, it was my old neighborhood where a bunch of my buddies still live.
So I dropped him off.
I went and hung out with my...
Mikey and Eugene up at Great Hills Country Club, had a couple beers up there with them.
Nice.
I told Michael that we would love to have him on the show, and he's really confused as to why.
He knows what we do, right?
I basically told him that everyone finds him to be very interesting because of some of the certain habits that he has.
Yeah.
And he's like, those aren't normal habits.
Like, no, it's not normal to have a friend throw your cell phone off your back deck in the middle of the night and try to go find it.
For a bad.
For money.
Yeah.
That was a lot of fun.
I got to see some boys.
Good time.
Do you get a little tuned up?
I had two beers, no.
Just a couple beers, you know, just to wet the whistle a little bit.
That was it.
Okay.
Another birthday party on Saturday, like I said, at a trampoline park.
And after than that, man, I just watched some sports.
Watched a lot of heartbreaking sports.
Did you get out there on that trampoline?
You hem on anybody?
No, I hate that place, man.
It scares a hell out of me.
It's just an injury waiting to happen.
You walk in the door and you sign your life away.
There's a waiver, like, right when you walk in, then snapped ankles and it's, it's, I hate it
when he goes there, but he got out on skates, so that was good.
Yeah, like I said, I just watched a bunch of sports and it was sad for much of the weekend,
much like our friend Mike over here.
Some of it was, some of it was good.
Was it?
Georgie footie?
Oh, yeah, I did what?
That was fun.
Yeah, I don't know if you saw the USA won.
That's what I'm least emotionally invested in is the footy.
It's fun.
It's fun when we're really good.
Yeah.
That was a surprise.
Four one.
Yeah.
Surprise.
I mean,
I don't think we expected that.
Maybe a dub,
but not like the guy who cut my hair,
birds was like,
oh,
no,
no, we'll be Paraguay.
Trust me.
I was like,
okay.
He was right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was absolutely right.
Good footy.
Okay.
And that's it.
Good.
How about you?
I did get,
so I mentioned I got a haircut Friday.
My haircut went well.
I'm kind of a free agent,
which frees me up to go
wherever I want to go.
And I went to birds, walked over there Friday.
Guy who cut my hair,
nice guy.
And I've never felt like less of a ball knower.
You know when like you talk to somebody
and you bring up sports or like,
something that you think everybody watches
and they'll hit you with like, man, I don't really watch the NFL.
And you're like, what the fuck?
You don't?
He hit me with it like, so what do you think, man, World Cup,
who you got this year?
I was like, dude.
I was like, I really,
I don't follow footie.
really that closely.
Like I was like, I can, maybe one of the blue bloods, Germany or whatever.
I could tell, I could see, like, he really thought this is going to be a big conversation piece for us going throughout the haircut.
And I just immediately was like, dude, I don't, I don't got anything for you.
I can't, I can't mix it up with you on this.
I felt very embarrassed.
We were loudly talking.
Everybody was kind of, we were holding court.
It was sad.
Good haircut, though.
Friday night, yeah, World Cup.
Rhodes and I watched it.
Watch most of it.
with him. He was somewhat interested.
Tried to explain to him why our country was playing and not like the city of Austin or the city of Dallas's teams.
It's very tough to explain.
Saturday, big, big day. Pool. First family outing to the lifetime pool.
Roads is officially big enough. He's five now, five and a half. He could do the slide.
I went and did the slide with him. The slide is sick. Have you done the slide?
Yes, I have.
It's a good slide.
Like one of them is a much faster than the other one if you figured that out?
Uh, yeah, the, I feel like the one without a top.
Yeah.
I was, I was surprised when I went down it because I did like the, I launched myself.
Parks and I, we used to race on that thing and I would have to like intentionally slow myself down just to like make it fair.
Yeah.
Because if you get it back on the shoulder blade, you just shoot down it.
I got a little, uh, I kind of got a little air too.
I was like, I was very, very surprised.
but that was a good time
pool was good
um
got back
Alyssa went
there's some nice
there's some
spa outdoor thing
did you see her Instagram post her story
some place out around Gonzalez's way
I don't think I saw
where there's like a
mineral like natural spas
like a mineral pool all that
they went for a friend's birthday
so I had the boys from like
two to ten
so
we just went home and just powered
through. A lot of hide and seek. I let Rhodes play the switch a little bit. It was a good time.
Sam woke up from his nap and I was like, all right, I'm going to kill some time. We're going to
go get ice cream. Then I got to run to H.E.B. Get my steak, my rib eye for my big solo kitchen
thing that I do. When Alyssa's gone, if you're new here, Micah, you probably don't know this.
When Alyssa's gone, I always just go get like an extravagant piece of meat and I call. I call. I
cook it meal for one it's kind of a tradition and um went and try to get ice cream got the boy some cones
rhodes ate his uh sammy my two-year-old didn't touch his um he wanted a bar a bottom of bar
at the place the d-light place the low sugar ice cream he didn't want the bar either so we left
there with him just kind of screaming for something else it was just an awkward dismount so i was
like hey you know what what if we went to he b with this vibe what if we took this energy to
H-E-B so I could daddy can get a steak we get in there go to the produce aisle going
right for the sweet potatoes go grab the little bag as soon as I grab the bag Rhodes
just starts writhing in pain bending over he's like dad I got a poop I was like dude
are you serious I was kind of mad I was like why didn't you tell me this earlier he's like
dad I got a poop it's the ice cream did you tell my one I pooped at a DSW recently to
kind of calm his nerves a bit well
Here's the deal.
I had that story queued up.
Has the guy, where's your bathroom?
He points me to it.
Go to the bathroom.
Open the door.
Look down.
There's two stalls.
I see two sets of feet.
There's not a stall.
I go, buddy.
Can you wait until we get home?
He's like, I don't know.
You know, he's freaking out.
And I just said, fuck it.
We're leaving.
So I left H.E.B.
Didn't buy a thing.
Went home.
Didn't mention having to poop again the entire right home.
home gets home and like just like gets down on the couch I'm like don't you have to go the bathroom he's
like oh yeah I guess I can try I'm like we just left the store I didn't get my steak I'm gonna have to
order dinner a little kid it's fair game to check the women's restroom by the way you could have let
let him go on there I didn't know the rule on that yeah with me no I don't want to be the
not not with you who who we just going to be not solo I guess he could yeah I haven't really thought
about that. I never crossed my mind. That's good to know. Emergency, yeah. I get it.
Ended up ordering food, watching low spurs. Tough times. Yeah. Tough times.
Tough times. Then yesterday was just an all-time day. Jim, straight from the gym,
Grey Rock, chipped and putted a little bit, got home, checked the radar, had to mow.
I mowed right in time for the rain hit. Got back in.
in and that was that.
Did the Dumb Zone UFC stream?
I sent you a picture, Ryan.
I want to show you, how do you think the Dumb Zone UFC stream went for me?
Visually speaking.
About better or worse than what we've got from Michael right now?
Better.
Okay.
You can be the judge.
It worked for a lot of it.
And to be fair, the audio was there.
It was just the, my lighting wasn't good.
I don't have a good setup at home.
And, yeah, they're...
Dude, what?
What the, what the, all the D.S who are excited to see
Wash Media's Dave pop on.
Got to see this.
Are those your gamer headphones?
Is my gamer headphones?
Nice, dude.
You look like that meme, who's that Pokemon?
Yeah.
It's like, who's that podcast host?
It's a dude, yeah, that, yeah.
Or like, who's the quarterback?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, like, which potter is this?
It's just a silhouette.
Micah, what do you think?
I can't see it.
Okay.
Well, it's some irony in that.
I'm sure it's weak.
Okay, well, just know it's just there it wasn't good.
I don't have a good setup.
You look great, Dave.
All right, great.
Thank you.
You're a little bit backlit, I believe, is the professional term on that.
Yeah, you're back lit.
I was lit.
Had to bail early.
Sam woke up was calling for me.
I just, I did an Irish goodbye.
I felt bad.
It was a fun time.
But yeah, that's that.
Ryan, you do anything fun over the weekend?
Yeah, I did.
Actually went out onto Fort Hood property.
I have a lot of friends who were former military.
they like to keep up on all their rifle and pistol skills.
So went out with them.
It was all day we were shooting, you know, working on moving,
reloading, you know, all the basic kind of fundamental stuff.
And then it was actually cool because there's an Airbnb at this range.
So we booked that out for Saturday night.
So we were able to stay all night and work on like white light type applications.
A couple of dudes brought out night vision.
So I was able to wear that for the first time.
That's pretty sick being able, especially just like looking up at the stars and seeing every single
star in the sky. It was a really cool experience to be able to test that out. I got to interject
right quick. Sorry to interrupt your weekend and fun. You are much cooler than Randy is. Imagine
Randy doing some cool shit like that. Never. Nah. Randy's never worn Night Vision. No, dude. He
wouldn't know what to do. That's all right. I didn't okay. All right. Yeah. Sorry, go ahead.
No, and then, well, I did. We, you know, I brought my camera out. We made some content for, you know,
the gram and everything. I would play it, but it's got copyrighted of music and I want to take
your guys stream down. Appreciate you. But at Mafia underscore Moffit on Instagram. If you want to go
check that out. We got some cool stuff with the night vision, seeing all the guys out there.
So yeah. Are you Mafia Moffett? Yeah, that's a former nickname from, actually started in baseball
when I was like 12 years old. Someone just called me that last, you know, one random day when I was
out of bat and it kind of stuck. And then I started doing like paintball media. So I was doing a lot
of stuff in that around like 2019 into like 2023, 24. And I just needed a name. So I was like,
screw it. We'll use that old baseball nickname. And it's kind of, yeah, it's stuck with me.
Dude, I was a problem out there on the paintball field.
No, you weren't.
Dude, I was, I was, I was sneaky on point, dude.
You weren't.
I was full gilly suit.
You couldn't see me.
You would have, you would have just tripped right over me, and I would have just lit your ass up.
Considering you're writing my checks this week, I'm going to hold back my thoughts.
Okay.
The dude with the gillie suit's always the best paintballer.
Yeah.
Well, do people actually do that for paintball.
There's a couple different types of paintball.
That's more of the scenario game, which is meant to be you're out in the woods all weekend, having fun.
with your friends. What I filmed was the competitive tournament side. So that's, you know,
the videos you'll see of guys dumping paintballs everywhere with the inflatable bunkers and all
that. That's what we were filming. We called that the speedball course. Exactly. Yeah.
But that's, it's a lot more athletic. You're sliding. You're diving. It's 5E5. It's a closer
field. So that's, it's more kind of a sport-ish type of game. Yeah. That's, yeah.
You would have gotten lit up. Probably. Yeah. God, dude. I'm not very tactical. You're the type of
dude did get shot and lie about him.
No, I didn't.
No, it didn't pop.
It didn't break.
And they're like, dude, you're covered in paint.
You are clearly out.
It's okay.
Pros do that all the time.
It's called wiping.
Yeah, you've got that vibe.
Fucking wiper.
I'm not wiping, dog.
If I get smoked, I'll tell you.
Hey, you can wipe away your blues with some Warby Parker classes.
That was clean.
What do you think I have on right now?
They're probably Warby Parker.
Yeah, these are the Bremers.
Transitional lenge.
Yeah, these are the brimmer frames.
They come in regular and wide frame.
Neither wide.
I got kind of a wider face.
I highly suggest these.
Yeah, these are transition lenses as well as blue light blockers.
I love them.
But they have a lot of frames.
They're frame for everybody.
They're perfect.
It used to be like very tough to find cool glasses at a good price point.
Not with Warby.
Not anymore, man.
Warby, they're fantastic.
I got the same frame, but mine are pure sunglasses.
I might have ordered mine first, and Dylan might have seen what I ordered and said,
I'm going to get those in a transitional lens, and that's okay.
I do like to swagger Jack Dave.
That's okay.
They just look so good.
I would do it, too.
Thank you.
They don't just offer the best sports glasses on the market.
They have everything you need for happier eyes.
That includes prescription glasses, contacts.
Online eye exams all in one place makes everything so much easier.
They've got 300 retail stores across the U.S.
Nice knowing that you have the in-person option if you ever want it.
Or you can do the video.
Try On. The virtual try on. That's what we both did.
Yep. It works way better
than I thought it was going to. Very handy. Yeah.
Try on shades right there with your computer.
I wear that's made to move with you right now
by one pair of glasses and get 20% off.
Any additional pair

That's 20% off.

Micah, I want to bring you back in here.
Do we have you?
I'm here.
you and I were both following the situation.
We both tuned into Paramount Plus to watch some cage fights at the White House.
And you texted me this morning, said you had some thoughts,
and I'm just going to open it up to you.
Well, thank you, David.
I have a lot of thoughts.
For those who watched, or for those who've done it, I guess,
the UFC had an event on the White House lawn last.
night. I'm sure you've seen it somewhere.
It was the most surreal, bizarre, insane,
hard to look away from just compelling event I've ever seen.
Did you watch any of this, Dylan?
I didn't watch any of it.
No. I'm no help either. I was too tired. I didn't check it out.
You guys missed that on a little slice of Americana.
I saw the jet fly over, the numerous jet fly over,
pretty dope looking, I must say.
Objectively cool.
Objectively cool.
The eagle flying in at weigh-ins. I saw that.
I was pretty sick. I heard about the eagle.
I did not see the eagle.
Eagel objectively sick.
Eagles are sick.
Micah, what initial thoughts?
I mean, it's really an overwhelming experience.
I tried to write down good things and just wild things, and I ended up just writing a bunch of bizarre
non-sequitur notes.
The entire experience of watching this last night was just, what the hell am I watching?
For every second of this presentation was, what the hell is this?
I still really can't wrap my mind around it.
It is so bizarre and so wild.
I'll go through the things I liked first.
The entrances with the United States military band were,
awesome. The band was good.
The band was so
good, including the highlight
playing drop top
as Derek Lewis came out,
which I would, unfortunately
the announcers talked over about how
great, they were like, this is so great, I can't believe we're
hearing this. Houston's in the house. I'm like,
how about you just be quiet and let us listen to it?
But they,
that's okay. Like I would
I would download that on
Spotify or something.
I don't, I guess people don't download things,
but I would listen to that again, if that was available.
I'd pay 99 cents for it,
which is not something I've done.
It would be a good ringtone.
It would be, it was tremendous.
The production values in general were pretty spectacular.
The things, it was creative, it was wild, it was, you know, just crazy.
But, you know, it looked very cool.
It was very hard to turn away from.
And then there's all of the other bizarre things.
Do you want to start with the pre-fight stuff?
We talked about the Eagle.
Did you have any thoughts on the pre-fight press conference at the Lincoln Memorial?
What an insane sentence to utter.
I didn't.
I watched some of the, I saw some clips, and I thought it was just kind of chaotic and mostly yielding
unfunny back and forth.
But yeah.
No, I didn't, I didn't, it didn't like lead me.
It didn't make me more hype for the fights.
It was already, it's a great card, objectively, a really good card.
I didn't need to be sold on it.
I was going to watch it, even if it was a bad card.
If they're doing this at the White House, I have to watch and see what they're doing.
But no, what did you take away from that?
Just kind of how absurd the whole thing is.
And perhaps sacrilegious probably isn't the right word.
but unbecoming of our nation.
And as you mentioned,
not a lot of great talkers up on that stage.
So there weren't like,
it'd be one thing if you had that
and Connor McGregor was cutting an unbelievable promo
and the world, like it was good
and you were, you know, had chills or whatever.
That was, this was just a lot of cringy talk.
It seemed like we've got to find something better
to do at the Lincoln Memorial than a non-intertaining press conference.
Their best, their best character,
their best talker on the card
is the guy who fought Derek Lewis
Josh Hokit
who is not
I don't look he has a schick
it seems to be like a hybrid
of like
mid to late 80s professional wrestling
it's not particularly good
but he tries something and he's a heel
and that's it
and he's not even that good at cutting a promo
he hey he won his fight spoiler
and I'm sure this this may
make your low light list coming up. But yeah, there was more from him later on in the night.
Yeah, we can get to him. He, I would say he does stay in character, which is, you know, something.
He also has multiple characters and all of them are kind of progressively more terrible.
I take it Dylan hasn't seen this guy's act, but he's got like, and I probably shouldn't say
this word, but he's got this kind of like cholo character. And then he's got,
this incredible hook character.
And then he has the character that he kind of has,
which is just sort of like the old Chris Farley show thing,
where, you know, the skit with Paul McCartney,
where he's like, I'm so nervous.
And it's like this weird.
Yeah.
This is bizarre.
Yeah.
Uncomfortable.
And then, yeah, then he knocked out Derek Lewis in a fight that was
shockingly one-sided.
and then, you know, the highlight of his appearances,
then he then called Michelle Obama a man.
Oh, that's the guy.
At the White House, I find out to be pretty disgusting.
The fact that Derek Lewis didn't put up more of a fight?
No, the Michelle Obama part.
Unbecoming.
Pretty gross.
Unbecoming.
You know, I just, like, I mean, yes.
Yes, his comment was gross.
And we obviously, there's a long history of us holding fighters to a lower standard
than the rest of society.
So, I mean, I don't mean, that is true.
dumb and stupid and just bizarre.
But the fact that no one else on the broadcast made any mention of it is kind of
what is the grosser part of the whole thing.
Like Joe Rogan just smiles and throws it back and the announcers don't go like,
hmm, that, they didn't say like, those are some controversial comments.
I thought DC might say something, but I mean, that was.
wasn't the only incident of the night that D.C. was a part of. We can get to that later, but
yeah, sorry, there's more pre-fight stuff. You know, it's like, it reminded me of Dylan will
remember this when they had the Super Bowl in Los Angeles three or four years ago, and they had
the sort of like hip-hop halftime show. And what I enjoyed about it is that everyone
very much realized how important it was to showcase like this historic moment from a big
crowd and like nobody slipped up and and cursed or did anything inappropriate or whatever and like
they just didn't have that conversation with these fighters you would have thought they would
have been like hey this is kind of a big moment let's try not to curse let's not say absurd
things like and none of that happened like there just leave all first ladies out of it and I know
and it wasn't just him like other people are saying fucking all that every other word and it's like
What are we doing?
They did, I will point out, they did, uh, they did dress up, um, the ring girls.
They did have them, instead of their scantily clad, they were wearing like patriotic dresses.
They were still revealing.
They classed them up a little bit, which was a nice touch.
There was a lot of dress up, uh, as a part of this.
The, the revolution, the guys dressed up as revolutionary war people, uh, bizarre.
Don't know if we needed that.
Like the fighters would walk through, like their walk through, they would walk by, like Mike said,
Revolutionary War era fighters wearing like full garb in like muskets.
Okay.
Like it's, I don't know.
I did see them entering through the White House.
Like they started their walks inside.
It appeared, Ilya Tupura walked from the Oval Office.
Yes.
Like his, they start having the Oval Office.
his his walkout started in if it's not the oh i don't know if there's like a fake i know he was in the oval
yeah i was going to say is there like a a a pretend one in there just for like uh did they clear out
the furniture got like a resolute desk just sitting there no it was there and it's like oh they
let him walk out from there because he was the he was the he's the champ he was in the main event
but um he also got pieced up by justing gaugie but yeah hilariously went to the the balcony
which that balcony to me will always be funny from Trump doing the eclipse and just looking into the sun.
Oh, yes.
Yeah.
Remember that moment?
That's the one.
I'm never going to see someone on that balcony and I'll think about that.
That's a great call.
Each fighter was escorted by a Medal of Honor recipient on one side and then a first responder on the other, which was kind of, I mean, it was, I don't really have a opinion.
on it other than it was it was just fun to see like them like turn around and like shake hands with like the
this medal of honor recipient and it's like shaking um Diego lopez his hand yeah and it's just like
and then they're going to do the long it's a long walkout too it's very much very Morgan wallin
walking out with like bill bellichick or whatever yeah so like the guys got the guys you know it's not
camera trained not media train they know the camera's on them they got they don't know what to do
with their hands it's a little bit awkward yeah there was a 101 year old uh
medal of honor recipient in a wheelchair that was a part of this walkout.
And then like some of the fights, there was, I forget which fight it was,
but the guy who was the first responder paired with him is just like freaking out,
banging his chest and screaming.
And it was, it was a lot, man.
It was a lot.
It's just, I can say all these things.
And if I wouldn't have seen it, I wouldn't have believed it.
I'm sure Dylan is saying like, what is happening?
I'm sure people are listening.
Like, this is, it was so much.
crazier than I would have thought it to be.
And like sometimes there are sporting events that happen in non-traditional settings.
Like there's those bowl games that happen at football stadiums, right?
Like they play one at Wrigley and play one at,
or the New Year's Day hockey games and football stadiums.
Or like when the bananas play at Kyle Field.
Yeah.
Just like that.
Yeah.
Much like that.
And like you tune in and you're like,
oh, this is cool.
And then it's sort of like after a little while it just becomes a football game or, well,
whatever the bananas do.
And, like, you know, it's cool and they're big crowd shots, but it's mostly a sporting event.
This at no point, like, we have not, we've been talking about this now 10 minutes.
We haven't mentioned any of the fights other than Derek Lewis.
Like, and I don't really remember anything that happened in any of the fights.
It's just the chaos around it.
Like, there was a pro wrestling event a few months ago at the TGL stadium where they, where they play the,
the bed sheet golf thing.
And remember they like,
one of the wrestlers threw another one through a,
through a sand trap or something.
Like,
it had elements of this,
but then the actual elements were fighters walking through the White House.
Yeah.
Like I can't,
like a guy walking through the Oval Office.
Like,
this is so bizarre and insane.
When I went to bed last night,
I had the thought,
like,
I was like,
man,
I wish I still had my phone.
This would be like a decent tweet.
But I was just thinking like, okay, after it's done and like,
Ilya Tepora's like face is fucked up, needs medical attention, whatever.
I'm like, does he just go back in the White House and they got doctors in there?
It's no way.
Or just Trump, because Trump's got to go to bed.
He was already dozing off.
Like, what, how do they handle that?
Like, so is he just like, all right, I'm going to go to bed.
You guys finish up in here.
I'll be over here in the Lincoln bedroom or whatever it is.
It's just a really weird dynamic.
And they're warming up in some room that they've confirmed.
and there's like all these fighters.
It is bizarre.
You should, I won't tell you to go back and watch the whole thing, but like,
it's something that you should just maybe go click around in because it is,
Micah's not overselling it.
It was, it is surreal.
I saw that Dana White said that he's never doing this again.
Yeah, it's for the best.
I'm glad that's a, that's a good choice on his point.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And back, like, the absurdity of these guys like training in the white, like,
they've got mats down on the floor in this big room in the White House.
and there's like, you know, portraits of presidents behind them.
And it's just so insane the entire time I'm, you know, I'm sure I was texting with Dave and our man, Danny Regs and other people.
I was in a group chat.
And everybody was just like sending me photos of their individual group chats.
Shout out to Dr. Mark Allen, who was sending me like, basically everybody was having the same conversation we were.
Like, what is going on?
Also, congratulations to Dr. Mark Allen on his.
coming military retirement.
We're very happy for him.
We thank him for service.
Yes.
I'm looking at my notes here.
There was also the moment where like Tyson Fury walked out.
And like, nobody said anything.
You just watched him walk.
There was no like music.
And like the announcers weren't talking over him.
And then he walks up and they goes to the announcers and they're like, all right,
do you have a big announcement?
And I'm thinking like he signed with Zufa Bari.
or he's done something.
And he goes, well, we're talking and I'll let Dana speak to that.
And it was like, did we just watch him make a five-minute entrance to make no announcement?
That was a weird.
That was one of the weirdest moments of the night, which is saying a lot because it's Tyson Fury.
He's not an M.MA fighter.
He's a known combat sports figure.
And all of a sudden you hear Kings of Leon, Sex on Fire.
A very, a hit song from, you know, 17 years ago.
And you're like, oh, okay, he's walking.
out to this, which my take was like, how, they clearly let him pick that music. Why would you
walk out to that? I get, like, maybe a lot of people think that's a good song, but that's
song when I, if Dylan, if you told me that was going to be your batting song, I'd be like, dude,
how horny are you? What's going on? I don't know. Maybe he's like, he knows that he's not, like,
if you put him next to his brother, who's very, like, cut up and a handsome guy, he's not
that. Sure. Maybe it was a little self-deprecation kind of thing. Maybe. You might be right.
The Gypsy King.
It's a weird place to do bits.
Yeah, it was weird.
Let's see.
Other notes here.
We'll talk about DC and Eric in a minute.
Yeah, we got that on the rundown for later.
Another pre-fight thing that blew my mind was the White House tweeting at weather.com.
Did you see this, Dave?
Did you see this one?
No, I missed this.
the weather.com posted like there are storms moving through the white house with 60 mile per hour winds and severe mosquitoes and blah blah like it was it was a like a true tweet about the weather as the weather channel should be doing and the white house tweeted out um i don't have the full tweet but they i'm not making this up they called this bullshit clickbait
the weather channel maybe they maybe they were looking at different models you got the
European model you got the American I mean there's just different ones that they were
calling the web they're called fake news on the weather channel well their their app is trash
I will say you got to get the windy app if you want a real a real idea of what the weather's
going to be you got to check out the windy app I'm a weather bomb guy myself okay that's my
preferred app but so I guess we can't get mad at fighters for throwing F bombs around when the
the official White House put out a statement calling it bullshit clickbait.
It's a new world.
Yeah.
The other thing that we've got to talk about are the ads that we saw during this presentation.
The cage itself, as Dylan knows, you know, often has some, some sponsorships.
There's, you know, logos on the mat on the cage.
This one said the White House right behind where the, you know, it normally has the location
of the event.
And then right next to it was a tree.
Truth Social banner, a banner for World Liberty, whatever the Trump family crypto scam thing is.
Dylan, you went viral on there recently.
On where?
Truth Social?
We're not doing that.
No.
I don't have an account on truth social.
Then the commercials were all for crypto, multiple crypto ads.
Crypto's back.
Multiple prediction markets.
Um, there were ads for Elon Musk Starlink.
There was Zuckerberg, Zuckerberg sitting, you know, cage side.
Lots of ads for the Department of War.
Lots of military video games.
Yeah, that's dope.
objectively, I got to say.
Cod, it's coming out, Marlon Warfare 4, getting excited.
And then they, they made an announcement that any post-fight bonuses would be paid.
I don't know if it was any of them, but someone,
would receive a million dollar token like a trump coin or something and is just so transactional
and so diamond hands it sounds like sounds like you're mad because you sold bro you have paper
hands micah you sold uh you know you know our man's nick um yeah it i mean yeah i'm you
you summed it up i that's that's it but it the only my my biggest issue was man this is a great car
these were great fights for the most part this would have been way cooler in like a full stadium
with like crowd pops and stuff um yeah it was a weird crowd uh there were like 4 000 people
there mostly military and then like some bizarre high rollers um you know some assorted politicians
Shane mcman's kids were there uh course roman rains and triple h were there from this w
is owned by the same parent company as UFC at this point.
But like the matches would start and the crowds and the entrances were incredible.
They were legitimately like the best, like they were super cool.
And the crowd would be hot.
And then about a minute into every fight, the energy is totally dropped because you have people that aren't fight fans necessarily.
Yeah, it was weird.
It was just bizarre.
I co-sign.
I co-sign.
We don't really need to get into the in and out to the fights.
You can go see.
Yeah.
It was, it was, you know, shout to Justin Gagee.
I've been a fan of his.
I think everybody thought he was going to get absolutely executed at the White House.
But he did not.
He did not.
Oh, two other things that I had one of my notes here.
One, there was tons of kid rock music.
A lot of kid rock.
There was also some, I'm sure you were happy about it.
this, your boy's limp biscuit made an appearance.
I heard a little bit.
Yeah, I'm going to have to go back and check that out again.
And then something else that Dylan would really like.
The amount of AI slop that was present throughout this event is off the charts.
There's Revolutionary War Slop.
Where was this displayed?
In between fights, they did like a lot of sort of vignettes about history.
They did one with Ronald Reagan.
and then, you know, like telling the story of, like, it was kind of wild.
They were sort of telling the story of America.
But with so much AI generated slop.
A lot of soldiers with six fingers.
And, you know, Dana White came out a couple of weeks ago and said, like, we're using AI.
I don't care if anybody criticizes us.
That's what we're doing.
And they used a ton of it.
And it is, I mean, it's.
it just encapsulates the moment.
Like this event will be a time capsule
because obviously they're not going to do this again
and no other president will likely allow something like this.
But if you go back and watch this in 20 years,
this is going to be just so bizarre.
Yeah.
I don't think Roe Kana is going to allow this when he's president.
And then before Trump fell asleep.
He did.
And he also put a hat on at some point.
And I wondered like why they,
did they put the hat on to maybe.
maybe make it look less like so you couldn't see his eyes as well.
I don't know.
But he did fall asleep.
It looked like at one point.
Melania looking great though.
Yeah, she does.
It was nice to see her.
She's back.
She's rarely seen with the president.
She wasn't in the garden last week.
Well, Micah, we're going to let you plug what you want to plug, hard money.
Tell us where to follow you.
Oh, man.
Don't you want to talk about D.C.
real quick?
I think we're going to save it for a full seg.
Okay.
We may not even get to it today.
Are you dipping out?
Is he dipping out?
Yeah.
Okay.
I've got to get back to work.
Hard money, Micah, in the building.
Shouts to a couple of backers who reached out to me on LinkedIn.
Great place to reach out in on Instagram at Michael Weiner.
Anybody who's looking to do fix and flip properties or looking for hard money, we actually
have a brand new, new construction program.
it's pretty killer and it's non-Dutch so we won't get into that right now but if you guys know
what that means somebody out there is going oh non-Dutch that's nice i used to i used to have some
of their trucker hats frees uh not bond Dutch that's good though uh other things to mention
shouts to uh our man ryan doing a great job got me all set up sorry my video don't work i know
it's a visual show um i do want to say something serious real quickly uh on friday
I was driving and the car in front of me swerved in the rain, corrected, overcorrected,
gotten ahead on collision.
Oh, no.
Yeah, it was a terrible, tragic thing.
And I just mentioned this because I'm trying, I'm still kind of dealing with it personally to
make myself sound like an asshole, but I know there's families affected.
And for those of you listening out there, you know, give your parents a hug.
give your kids a hug.
It's, it's,
we have a lot of fun on these shows,
but man,
life can be gone in a second and,
you know,
make the most of it.
Is everybody okay?
Are you?
Yeah.
I'm fine.
I don't think,
this was a tragic event.
So we'll leave it at that.
Oh my God.
But just, you know,
take care of each other.
And you guys,
we're all going to talk about McAfee?
I should end on a happier
note. What a dope that guy is.
What a pivot time.
Because we talk about how important it is to be nice
to people. Pat McAfee
is a world-class dope. We've talked
about it before.
He made a big scene about
basically being big-time at that
bar in Omaha, like,
and called it a racket. And
I'm just sick of his trash right now.
But find
me on Instagram and LinkedIn, folks,
and be good to each other.
All right. All right. Well,
Thank you, Micah.
Micah, we'll talk later.
Yeah, we need to go to Matt Zell Rancho.
Sorry to bring it down, guys.
It's okay.
It was good to hear you.
Good to see you guys.
Security camera, cut out on him.
All right, Micah.
Later, buddy.
That took a somber turn, didn't it?
This episode is sponsored by Better Health.

Okay.
I'm very confused.
Yeah, man.
That's not, yeah, I don't know.
That was a bombshell that he just dropped
and walked away from.
Like, yeah,
I just kind of rolled the grenade in here.
Yeah, and now we're dealing with the aftermath.
Don't really know how much of that is.
Well, I'll tell you what,
the only way to get this thing going on the rails again
is that you're about Dylan's sports weekend.
I'm sure it was awesome.
Yeah, sheesh.
The month of Dylan continues.
Everything is just going his way.
Yeah, I got it.
I was pretty cocky last week.
I came in here talking about the sports
and how good they've been to me.
For good reason.
I was on just an absolute heater.
I had my lady Longhorners taking the national championship in softball.
Had my spurs poised to win their first title.
And I don't know how long it's been, but they were looking good.
I believe they were the favorites going in in the finals.
They were.
I had my Golden Knights hitting the ice in the Stanley Cup finals.
They also were on a heater.
And of course, my Longhorns, the College World Series.
Headed to Omaha.
Headed to Omaha.
I was like, man, I'm probably, all right, I'm probably going to split the Stanley Cup and the NBA finals.
I'll win one of those.
Like, one of those is got, one of those has got a hit, right?
Over two.
Spurs lose in pretty embarrassing fashion.
I saw a stat that said that they led for 70, for over 75% of the finals, they had the lead.
They just couldn't close.
We've talked about that game six, or sorry, game four.
was not too unlike the other losses where they had a lead, double-digit lead, and of course,
lost it.
Jalen Brunson just absolutely went off in game five, 45 points for a team that scored less than 100.
Pretty crazy.
Stanley Cup finals, Golden Knights lost in six.
Last night, they lost.
They were looking strong and then just...
You got busied.
That dude's good.
That dude's good.
Couldn't find the net.
Texas played Georgia.
the first round of the college world series.
I was less confident in this one.
If you've listened to me, talk about the Texas Longhorns throughout the season.
My confidence in their offense has been waning.
This is not strong.
Georgia's really good.
I think Georgia's the best team in the country.
And they didn't exactly light up Texas offensively like they could have.
Texas made a lot of, a lot of stupid mistakes, a lot of errors
two errors from the catcher in the first inning
that cost them a couple runs.
Just a weird game.
And a game, like Texas is a baseball blue blood.
Like, possibly the best, you know,
overall baseball program in the country.
Wow.
Look into the camera and say that.
And dude, they showed up and they looked like
they weren't ready for the moment.
And it was just, it was bizarre.
I didn't quite understand it.
The only team in the field of eight
that just looked like they weren't ready
for the stage like that, it was weird.
the top four batters in the lineup went over.
You need more there.
It was brutal, man.
Maya, the only thing with all the,
there was so much going on,
I didn't get to watch any college baseball this weekend.
So I asked you this morning.
I was like, is Troy still in?
Like, who's still out there mixing it up?
So Texas plays today?
Texas plays today at 1 o'clock.
They have Alabama.
They're on the losers in the loser's side.
Ole Miss is done.
Ole is out.
They lost to Troy last night.
Troy is still.
alive.
North Carolina is 2-0.
They beat, I believe,
West Virginia yesterday.
So it's looking, if I had to guess,
I would say we're getting Georgia at North Carolina
in the championship series.
But Texas isn't done yet.
They got Alabama today. Alabama is
good, obviously.
Beatable, though. We'll see how that goes.
But Texas has to win four
in order to, four straight
in order to make the championship series,
which includes probably beating
Georgia twice, which is a tall order. A tall task.
A daunting either. So I was, I was very cocky, and then I was extremely humbled at the end of the
weekend. It just, things just did not work out for your boy. And that's okay. Did you,
did you take any solace in the, um, the man in the Robben, Jersey, who was fighting the good
fight at MSG, um, one V100. Ryan, can you pull up the video? Do you got it right there? Did he
Did he finish this evening unscathed?
Do we know how is 19?
So I, okay, so I immediately did some sleuthing
just because somebody posted a video.
Somebody went viral.
And, yeah, I don't want, at DeCarter Ralph on Twitter
if you want to see viral tweets.
Can't monetize, though, for some reason.
Just hit play.
And, yeah, for the folks at home, it's a visual show.
You may have already seen this.
It's been everywhere.
It's a guy who's built like an absolute tank.
Just wearing a Spurs Rodman jersey.
A Dennis Robin jersey.
He wanted all the smoke.
Dude, he did, and he's getting, people are hitting them and chirping him.
People are sucker punching him, and he is just barreling through everybody.
He ate that.
There's a sucker punch from behind, and he tracks him down.
It's funny because he moves through a crowd, and they part like the Red Sea,
because they don't want, they don't.
Some of them want smoke, but 99% of them don't.
So he went to, I guess, the watch party at the garden.
and this is after the Spurs lose.
He just wanted a fight.
Police come, they escort him out, they put him in the back of the police car,
and then they, in his words, he said they figured out it was self-defense,
and they let him go.
So found his Instagram, West Wallace on Instagram.
He posted, it's a video of him just talking to the camera.
His face is completely unscathed.
It looks like the kind of face that, like, dude.
Is he actually not a Spurs fan?
Was that part true in your tweet?
So he's from Philly.
He just, he starts, he's doing like answers and questions.
He's like, I'm from Philly.
He's like the Knicks knocked us out of the playoffs.
He just hates New Yorkers.
I don't like New Yorkers.
I don't like Nick's fans.
He's like, I was rooting for the Spurs.
I do like Wimby.
And so essentially he's like, he basically said, I just like to fight.
This is, this is fun to me.
So he just did this.
This is maniacal behavior.
He basically said, all right.
Like, let's, he's been seeing all the videos.
So he gets a rod, like the most controversial spur, arguably.
Not even like, not even real spurs fans don't like Dennis Rodman.
He was not, he did not have a good tenure there.
Puts it on and comes out on skate, like shows his face.
He's like, no, I got hit right here, but like, he's like, I don't have any scratches or anything.
And then he just, he just starts posting.
It's like him at brunch in New York City, just out and about.
Just wanted to fight some New Yorkers.
A whole mom.
of them.
It's really unbelievable.
That is crazy behavior.
And he's by himself.
Like,
are there any boys with them?
I don't know.
He was with,
uh,
the,
the stuff he posted after,
right after he's with like a couple,
uh,
women.
This guy's crazy.
Yeah.
I,
I'm like,
dude,
I,
like,
you know,
when you got people just willingly
sucker punching and you've seen all the videos of people
throwing parking cones.
I fully expected this video to end with like somebody just
hitting him with like,
uh,
with a chair or something over the head and then him getting stomped out.
Got something,
Ryan?
Well,
yeah,
You said he's a Philly fan, right?
Yeah.
This is normal behavior.
Yeah, that's right.
I mean, they threw snowballs at Santa.
Yeah, this is correct.
I mean, if I had to pick one fan base to go up against a mob of New York Knicks fans,
I would pick someone from Philly.
Philly could hold their own.
Yeah.
Dude, just love of the game.
This is crazy.
It's like, dude, that's how I get my juice.
They respected him.
They were like, you know, like I said, they were getting out of his way.
I'd love to know, like, how big he actually is.
He is a white guy.
It doesn't look tall, but he's definitely stout.
He's probably like six, maybe like $2.50.
Yeah.
Like...
It can eat a punch.
Yeah.
Dude, I mean, like the videos he posted, his head, he's got a very wide head.
Like, you're not doing...
You need to have some serious power to touch this guy.
He's built to eat punches.
Yeah.
Honestly, I'm glad that we had a video and like it appears nobody got seriously hurt, but like, finally of like a...
Okay, not necessarily a Spurs fan, but someone...
someone like going the other way with it
because I got the other videos made me so mad of like
dude's just trying to get to the you know walk home to their hotel
in spurs jerseys after game three is getting
he's getting actually harassed just getting like lit on fire
jerseys ripped off of them yeah yeah don't do this people
I mean it turned this one ended up okay I wonder if I wondered if somebody would go
like some mhm a fighter would go put up get some spurs gear and go like
just dare somebody get some rep.
in. Yeah. Yeah. No, I'm a Kings fan, so I have no dog in this fight, but it wasn't until the
game three videos came out that I was like, all right, I'm all in spurs, let's go, boys.
Yeah, it's amazing how I turned the tide for people. I think you speak for a lot of neutral
fans in this one. They're like, man, this is, this behavior is pretty, pretty bad, pretty
disgusting. And they, uh, they burned the city down. Like, it was, it was rough. I saw them
destroying like a school bus. Yeah, it was somewhere. Fully lit it on fire. Rip the, the grill off
of it.
And he's like,
what are we doing?
It's not good.
What is it about human nature
that wants to just
destroy stuff when celebrating?
I don't quite,
I've never,
I've never gotten that.
Do you ever listen
to Lint Biscuit?
Keep on rolling.
Fair enough.
But do you ever,
though?
No, no, no, I don't.
I think you know that about me by now.
But I think that explains it,
yeah.
It's just kind of a lot of pent-up anger.
Sometimes you just got to break stuff.
Yeah.
I guess, man.
I don't know.
He famously packed a chainsaw.
Scan that ass raw.
Okay.
Yeah, I was not aware.
Which is like a tough way to go.
You see a lot of couch burning college fan bases love to do that.
If it had been my team, I would have been eating the couch.
Right.
You and, you and 20.
Me and 18 of my closest brothers for life.
We would have just eaten that couch.
Yeah.
Which is, brothers for life.
It's better than burning it in the street, I would say.
Agree.
How weird would that be if, like, police, like, walk up and there's just some guys, like, sitting down, like, just methodically eating the couch.
And they're like, what are you guys doing?
Like, technically, you're not.
allowed to do this, but like, can you all just eat this couch like somewhere else and not in the
middle of, uh, prime square or whatever? Eat this couch. Brett, so Brett was there. Brett was in New York City.
So you saw a guy fall off the light pole. Yeah, which is going to happen. It's not good. Yeah.
Tough. I don't know, man. I don't know if we'll, this guy is primed to end up like doing some
bare knuckle boxing, some kind of, I don't know. I, I, I, someone will do something with this guy. We've
not seen the last of this dude. West Wallace, I believe. He might be bigger on TikTok. I don't know. I'm
not on TikTok, but he said he was going to do some posts over there. So hopefully,
hopefully he gets some followers. I, you know, this will only enhance his following. Is this his
boy filming it? I don't know. It's great camera work. There's other angles, by the way. I saw the
one from up top. The one from up top is like incredible. It looks like, uh, it looks like a shitty video game
you play on your phone.
Like Clash of Clang?
I don't know.
One of those games
where they just keep sending
more and more zombies at you
or something.
And you're just like mowing down.
But it's just this dude
in a Rodman jersey just,
I mean, no one's taking this guy down.
I mean, Spurs didn't win, but you don't really see him
like striking many people.
He was just welcoming smoke.
Yeah.
He apparently, he showed his hand.
He had some cuts on his hand.
He said he caught some dude on the jaw.
Okay.
There was one guy.
I think it's one of the guy who sucker punched him. He chased him down.
By the way, this dude's sneaky fast, too.
Okay.
This dude moves like a hippo.
Like you're watching him.
Like, he gets from point to point.
Like a hippo?
Quicker than you think.
Hippo's a fast, man.
Yeah.
Like, you're watching, like, oh, dude, that thing can make up some ground on it.
It's a mobile tank.
Yeah.
Shouts to this guy.
Seriously, shout to West.
Also, shout out to her friends at Underdog Fantasy.
You know the rest of the world, Dylan?
call it football.
Yeah.
Not here.
Not here.
This is America.
What do we call it?
Soccer.
We call it soccer.
I might call it footy from time to time.
That's just if Will's around.
I don't want them to think I'm cool.
Underdogs your spot to be all in on every match.
48 teams, 104 games, 39 days.
One Nation underdog.
How about that?
You like that?
I do.
You like that white boy?
Yeah, I do.
I thought you did.
Build the thrill now.
There's never been a bigger moment to have something on it.
Like, I can't imagine, like, watching that USA game was already, like, peak.
And imagine if you were just like, you know what, I'm going to go over to Underdog and get in on the action.
You have a little action on it.
Here's how it works.
You make higher or lower picks on goals, assists, and shots on target.
Get in on every match and your whole night changes.
The second you have something on a game, can't look away.
Nothing else matters.
That's the whole point.
Anyone who plays is automatically entered for a shot at 25 million.
25 people walk away with a million each if the USA wins at all.
How about that?
What are you doing with the mill?
Tell me that.
Paying some bills probably.
That's a lot of bills.
What are you been doing?
Anything else he'll do?
No, that's it, man.
I know you're not buying a boat.
Extreme debt right now.
Anything with a boat, maybe?
No, dude, you know I'm not buying a boat.
Yeah.
So, I don't know.
For example, I go over, I'm like, Policic.
He had a great game.
Goal and an assist, I believe.
say I'm going to look at look and see what the number they have four minutes.
I'm going to go higher or lower on that number.
It's that easy.

Ryan on the buttons, man, he's killing it.
You want to talk,
Trump, D.C.?
Yeah, since this was from last night's event,
we have to talk about this.
So Daniel Cormier,
D.C.
Long-time MM-A.
fighter and now he's on the mic for he is a he is part of the 18 okay yeah he tweeted yesterday
screenshots from a DM conversation with Eric Trump and in the conversation Eric Trump basically
asked Daniel Cormier for a little insider info pretty blatant he says there any of these fights
rigged or any of these fights rigged and of course if he said yes this one is he was probably
we would assume you want to get his beak a little wet on the action, right?
Yeah.
So he tweeted it, screenshots and all, and then soon after he took it down.
But, you know, once it's on the Internet, it stays on the Internet.
Daniel Cormiy followed it up with, are y'all really this dumb?
He deleted it, people are like, wait a minute, what's going on here?
Why did you delete this?
And he said, are people really this dumb?
There's the text.
Eric Trump tweeted later that said this is AI.
This is fake, and Cormier deleting it confirms that.
But it doesn't really check out.
It doesn't clock.
And I'll tell you why.
Cormier tweeted it out.
If this was AI generated, why would he tweet out screenshots from a conversation that only he and Eric Trump can access or DM conversations on Twitter?
Okay?
Sure.
The other explanation is that I believe after the fights,
He claimed to have been hacked.
D.C.
claims to have been hacked.
Okay.
If he was hacked, and if someone fabricated these screenshots to incriminate Eric Trump for trying to gain insider information, he regained access to his account pretty much immediately if he were to be hacked.
Right.
Like in less than an hour, he regained control of his account.
Which I don't, usually that is not an easy thing.
I don't believe so.
Maybe he got special.
Yeah.
He was like 10 yards away from the president.
It looks like it's super authentic.
Like it looks like it looks that way.
Sure.
On the other hand, like, how can Eric Trump be so cavalier, so reckless, so stupid to send this over the internet to ask someone of his stature for insider information in a fight like this?
So I don't know which side I believe.
It certainly looks to be super authentic.
I think Grock has been like, no, this actually happened.
Like people, you know, ask Grock kind of thing.
So it looks like it's super real.
But what the fuck?
Why would Eric Trump do this?
So wait, so like either Eric Trump really sent these messages and DC posted it.
DC got hacked.
Okay.
DC got hacked and the hacker had already made these images.
Right.
And tweeted it out for some reason, which is also weird.
Or the hacker hacked D.C.
And found these messages and tweeted it.
but I don't really see another
or DC just made this up
or DC actually tweeted these out
or DC actually had these images made
because you can fabricate images
I think very very very very weird
I think like the most sensible explanation
is that this is real
he tweeted it out and then he got a phone call
from someone very powerful
I'm not saying Trump himself
but someone administration adjacent related
like hey take the shit down
claim it's fake we're not dealing with this bullshit
and so he took it down
and then immediately said hey y'all that's not real
I mean this happened not that long
before the card started right so
in theory DC was at the White House
D.C. was probably already there
you're right you're right you're right you're right so someone ran
up to me hey dude what the fuck are you doing take the shit
down
I don't know I don't know what happened
we probably never I mean even if
even if this were totally real
nothing's going to happen to Eric Trump
we know that right
right and I don't
even know what would possibly happen other than like people would roast him because he did i don't
think he like committed a crime he didn't commit a crime by doing any of this it's a real shitty
look like obviously the most shitty um it it really is bizarre and it was really bizarre like
they didn't they couldn't acknowledge it throughout the like the president's son right
the president who's sitting right over there uh was trying to do this i don't i don't know dude it's
i don't know either i don't i don't know either i don't dc is like by all
count like a good dude.
He seems like a stand-up guy, which is why, like, his first one, he's like, I can't
stay silent on this.
Someone's trying to fuck with my, the sport that I love so much.
It wouldn't shock me that he would, he would, um, report, post something like this, but
that he would do it like, I don't know, like, knowing that this is going to be the story
when you're like an hour from, like, this historical UFC White House card.
I don't know, man.
Yeah.
The best defense for Trump is like.
this is so blatantly reckless and stupid.
Like, why would I do this?
Imagine him being like, actually, yes, check this out.
This Derek Lewis fight totally rigged and doing that in a DM.
Yeah.
Right, which doesn't make sense.
Like, why you're Eric Trump.
You could probably just get D.C.'s number.
Or just walk up to him.
Yeah, he was at the event.
He posted from that.
He was there.
Yeah.
I don't know, dude.
It's bizarre.
It is bizarre.
Like every possible explanation is bizarre.
There's not one where it's like, oh, okay.
Yeah, exactly.
Like there's not like a...
We'll never get to the bottom of it.
It's just one of those things.
We're going to have to live in mystery forever.
But it is strange.
It is very strange.
Yeah.
Okay.
And that's that.
I guess we're...
Right.
Great job, dude.
Hey, good first day.
Good job.
There's a couple little slip-ups, but I feel we got through it pretty well.
I didn't notice a single one.
How's the chat?
Chat's been doing good.
They're popping?
Yeah, they're talking over there.
You can mix it up with it.
talking about stuff.
Randy,
Randy typically will just sit there and post Instagrams.
Or Texas girlfriend.
Or Texas girlfriend.
Or he's just having to do it a separate show with the chat.
Yeah.
I wanted to be in the mix today, you know, on my feet.
Smart.
Get in it underneath my belt for the first one.
Good man.
Oh, yeah, you did good.
Are really, is Randy, he's going, he's overseas right now?
He has that bachelor party.
And then he's overseas and he'll be back next Tuesday.
Yes.
Yeah.
So you guys got me for a week.
week here. Good, good. I think
it's going to be fun. Maybe we'll
maybe we'll do a devote an entire segment to getting to know Ryan
or Mafia, Mafia, Mafit. Yep, Mafia underscore
Moffat on Instagram. Give them a follow. All right, well let's
we'll be back tomorrow. I'm going to post the cold calls
form if you want to get cold call tomorrow from 2 to 3 Central. Fill it out.
See all tomorrow. Bye. Bye.
Are you one of those media strategy people clicking through slides,
scrolling spreadsheets,
Yes? Good. This is for you. Because on Spotify, there's an audience that's different. Locked in, loyal, invested. They're called fans. Fans don't just listen to music. They feel seen by it like it belongs to them. So when your brand shows up on Spotify, that's who you're talking to. And you're right next to artists like me, Lizzo. So, are you ready to talk to fans? Spotify advertising. You're among fans.
