Question of the week.
What's your biggest heartbreak?
Was it when you got broken up on reality TV twice?
Or was it when they took the Frito burrito off of the Taco Bell menu?
Was it when you got broken up with in real life?
Or was it when Propel changed their branding and things?
threw you off for the rest of your life.
Was it when you realize the backdrops on news and sports shows were fake?
Or was it when Michigan football signed with Adidas for 10 years?
Those are the things that honestly keep me up.
Or was it when Staples changed their whole entire font?
Bro, that'll get me harder than a whole relationship.
date a girl for two years break up with her
worst breakup ever
both you guys tell each other
you're gonna kill it
kill yourselves
or when Staples
takes the actual staple out of their logo
what hurts more
when they got rid of
Frutopia vending machines
or when you thought you were gonna get married
and it didn't happen
but every time you date a girl
you think you're gonna get married
right even when you're like in first grade
I think you gotta be real crazy
you did not think that.
Or even for a little bit, you're like, oh shit, we're about to, she, oh, shit, we both think
we're going to get married.
Is that the funniest shit?
You go on one day, dude, in my head the whole time on that date, I'm like, damn, so we're
going to be hanging out like all the rest of our lives.
Every day, every time I've ever talked to a girl, the thing in my head is, wow, we're
going to have, like, kids and stuff.
I've just been Fourth of July at her family's house.
I've said seven words to her.
Everybody thinks like that, right?
No, okay.
Here you go.
For me, it was the third grade.
I had like my first little boyfriend
and we kissed under the trampoline at my friend's house.
And I think it was probably a week later.
He broke up with me.
And it was the biggest heartbreak of my life.
I remember it to this day.
And I don't remember the reason.
But he was in fourth grade and I was in third grade.
Oh.
Might have been the reason.
But I remember I went home and I like cried in my room like end in my pillow.
And didn't tell my parents.
I was just so so heartbroken.
But yeah, that's probably my biggest heartbreak.
those are really the ones you remember though
those early crushes
I remember my like first girlfriend in school
thought about her yesterday
uh
no her name wasn't Amelia
no I didn't make fun of
no I didn't get made fun of every single day
by my family because they all knew about it
I was like what is happening
how does everybody know my drama
I'm eight
those ones hurt bro
I think that's the realest relationship I've ever had first grade for real.
Like, damn, like we were, we were locked in.
A lot of mems.
You don't know the reason?
Bro, third grade dating a fourth grader is dangerous.
You don't know what.
Dude, girls are so brave dating guys.
Do you ever think about that?
Like, when a girl decides to hang out with a guy, it's like, wow.
You, like, you really trust me.
This is insane.
Wait, so I'm just going to pick.
you up and we're going to go wherever and you're just going to like we don't even know each other.
Oh, how do you do it?
You know zero things about me, but you're just going to get in my car.
Girls will mess around and take trips when they don't even know a guy.
Yeah, I'll fly you out and they'll just go.
I'll never get it.
I'll never understand it.
But in third grade day and a fourth grader, that's serious.
What school did you go to?
I thought it was, I thought it was.
so player.
When my seventh grade
best friend was dating
an eighth grader,
I was like,
dog,
you're,
you're him,
bro.
Oh,
you're dating,
you're dating Amanda Bradley,
dude?
She's,
you know,
like the girl
that's in eighth grade
that's hot,
but she's like tall.
There's a tall girl.
I'm like,
God.
I'm like,
you pulled that?
Oh,
bro.
Dang,
that's going to be,
you ever date a girl
and you're,
like, man, this, like two weeks into the relationship, you're like, this breakup's going to hurt.
This one's going to hurt, babe.
Ooh.
Oh.
Can't remember the reason.
I always hated dating a girl like in not dating, but whatever the hell we were in, like,
middle school.
Because you just break up when the summer starts.
Actually, kind of a good, good plan.
Like, yeah, I'm just going to have a girlfriend all year.
And then summer comes around like, whoops.
Whoops, I have no, I, like, I'll try to call you once a week.
I guess.
That's how I need my relationships right now.
Yeah, we can date during the year.
School years only, though.
Like, I get spring break off.
I get Christmas off.
Summer off.
But just like during, like, the grind.
got to have a girlfriend.
Yep.
Fall definitely got to have a girlfriend,
but like when Christmas rolls around,
I mean, that's just gets,
that's just too much for me.
I just got to,
we got to take a step back.
Yeah, it hurts, yo.
Third grade?
God, you love them so much.
You love them so much,
you write their name down.
That's when you know.
Why am I writing this girl's name down
in my notebook 78 times?
That's when you know.
Hey, you're making your, hey, you're making, you're writing her name down with your last name.
Literally 11 years old.
Hey, just see how it looks.
So if we did, hey, if you, you're lying to yourself.
If you don't talk to a girl, like start talking to a girl.
You're like texting.
You're lying if you don't think of her first name with your last name immediately in
guy. There's no way, bro. And if a girl, you, you, you like try to, you, you, you, you
convince yourself, even if, even if the guy you're dating for 27 hours, it's, it doesn't
sound good. Your first name and his last name, you convince yourself. You're like, it could work,
though. I'm sick. What up, Ben? Biggest heartbreak man. That would be last year.
In April, I think that would be when Tyreus Halliburton,
Tora's AC's Achilles in game seven.
That's nothing, nothing hurts.
So I'd rather get cheated on by four women than see that again.
Bro, they were going to do it.
Not a sports podcast.
I was so sure the Pacers were going to beat the Thunder in that game seven
that I took a nap during the game.
It was like their first quarter.
Sometimes things get so overwhelming.
I just have to take a nap and die.
And I'll do it at the craziest times.
Like I literally can't be awake for this.
I can't be living for this moment right now.
Before a show, God.
Before a stand-up comedy show in some weird town in California,
I'm like, I just got to go to sleep.
Like I can't endure this like feeling right now.
It's mentally exhausting.
I don't know if it's just stand-up.
It's a lot of other stuff, too.
But yeah, during that game, man,
I was just like, I cannot take the...
I can't watch.
I cannot watch this, you know?
I laid down on my back, woke up Tyrese Halliburton,
out indefinitely, out for two years.
I was like,
everybody knows the Pacers should have won the NBA finals last year.
Like, everybody, even the Thunder are like,
I mean, yeah, they should have.
When your boy gets hurt on your team, bro,
and you know it's the end.
too. Such a heartbreaker.
Percentage of guys that come back from an injury and they're like better or they're the same,
it's got to be like 3%.
AJ and Peterson all 3%.
Trell Owens a little bit too.
But when a guy hurts his knee or something, you're just as a kid too, you don't really know.
Daddy, what happened?
He's just banged up for a few games.
He'll never be the same.
in baseball, I can't imagine
liking baseball and your favorite pitcher
he gets like his shoulder
tell me John's surgery.
I'm like he's never going to pitch fast again.
Career's over.
Get so scared.
Dude, when guys are really good earlier in their careers,
I'm like,
okay.
If I as a GM, I'd be trained the hell out of people.
One good year, trade them.
One good year, trade them.
One good year, trade them before he gets hurt.
Tyreys Halliburton trade them right now
that's sports podcast
So my biggest heartbreak
Can't wait
When my work bestie leaves me
Like quite literally
That almost might hit close to like a parent
dying out of nowhere
It is absolutely terrible
Like what do you mean you're going to leave me in this hellhole
where we've been planning everybody's dismisses.
Did I say that right?
Dismise?
Oh, well, whatever, you get the point.
When we've been plotting on everyone's lives and now I'm just here and I have to be like normal and not a complete like psychopath.
Got it.
Love that so much for me.
It's tearing up my heart.
Bro, it's like when you're at school and your boy isn't there?
Like your boy's sick?
I'm honestly mad at him.
I'm like, what?
You're just going to be, you're not going to tell me?
I never, I didn't work long enough to have it work, bestie.
But that gets crazy.
Because like, they're your whole world.
They're your whole world, bro.
You're ride or die at work.
There's always one guy you can kind of get down with that work.
You're like, thank God you're normal.
I can't stand the rest of these freaks.
How am I even here right now?
You ever think that at work?
You're sitting there at work here.
Like, how am I even here?
I don't know how people do that.
I did it.
I did it for like 10 years.
But I was just like, oh my God,
these people are so crazy, insane and annoying.
People that work in offices,
I'm like, there's just no way.
I think I went probably 34 days of my corporate career,
not saying a word to anybody.
And God, they were the 34 best days.
I would try to go start to finish.
You play those little games in your head.
I put my headphones in, listen to ESPN radio the entire day.
Just knocking stuff out.
Get up and leave.
Don't even say bye.
When you got a homie at work, God, it makes it fun.
But you can also get in trouble doing that.
I had a best friend at work and we were doing it.
It was like we were in school again.
me and me and chiller best friend for my whole life
because that's how guys are
guys meet their best friends in first grade
and it's their best friend till they die
and they have like three of them maybe three probably two
maybe not even two
best friend forever worked with him
at a government office
in Carmel Indiana
the richest city of all time
me and him in there for God no
knows what reason.
We're just like working for the...
I have no idea what I'm doing
every single day.
I'm supposed to be like
keeping track of
some accounts or something,
city accounts.
Every time they looked at my screen
on my computer, I was watching huddle film.
Huddle practice film.
The literal mayor
would be in the office and he would turn and look at
something and I would pretend like I was
grabbing his ass every single time just to make my friend laugh and it would every time but i'll never
but that's when i was like i just got to get fired but if he wasn't there i would actually have to work
and the people in the office when you're work bestie isn't at work they like know you're vulnerable
they're like oh okay what do you get who you're going to talk to you're going to talk to me are we going
to be friends you got to act a little different you got to act a little nicer hey
Yeah, I don't know.
We don't, you're acting like you don't know each other, your work bestsy that much.
Yeah, they never said anything to me.
We like just met.
Yeah.
Meanwhile, you're texting them, dude, what the, get your ass here before I kill you.
It was crazy in high school and we didn't have phones and your, in your home he didn't show up.
I'd be like, bro, what the fuck?
Did you die?
No, I was just like sick.
Sick.
That's not an excuse.
You can't leave me hanging around all these freaks and nerds and corn balls?
Where's my friend?
Not all dairy queens serve, chocolate soft serve.
Biggest heartbreak.
That's so real.
I just love how you guys just know that this is the direction the podcast goes.
It's just, oh, you're talking about work.
Well, guess what?
Now you're talking about ice cream for 45 minutes.
Can I be honest?
Can I be honest?
can I be completely honest
chocolate ice cream is good
but is it
chocolate ice cream
you ever been like
man I really want some chocolate ice cream
look at yourself in the mirror
a scoop of chocolate ice cream
a scoop of vanilla ice cream
right next to it
I think your decision's made
a scoop of chocolate ice cream
in a cup to me
It just looks like, hey, you're going to have bad breath for the next two days.
Vanilla ice cream, hear me out, is just a vehicle for your other favorite things.
And when I say favorite things, I mean your favorite toppings.
You put a bunch of crunched up Oreos, Reesies, Snickers, Hot Fudge in vanilla ice cream?
Oh, my God.
Blade time.
But you put that in chocolate ice cream?
It's kind of like,
it's a little overwhelming.
And I like can't see it as well.
I'm getting real,
real into this,
but it's that serious.
I'm like breaking down X's nose
of chocolate and white ice cream,
chocolate and vanilla ice cream.
But it's that,
it's this,
this is how much it means.
But you know,
what I can really get down with
is that,
Yo, when they
Whoever the guy was
that was like, okay, soft serve machine,
we got chocolate soft serve,
we got vanilla soft serve,
make them both twist.
Bro, the twist feature on soft serve machines?
Whoever created that, step forward.
We have to kiss.
I'm still amazed at how they...
Is that on the Dairy Queen?
Like...
Is that in the, in the, I almost had audition.
The hiring process?
All right, yeah.
Okay, yeah, you know all the blavered,
you know all the blizzard combos?
Cool.
One more thing before we give you the job.
Do a cone perfectly.
God, I thought it was so crazy the way they do that.
Dairy queen employee?
making that twist cone
like a tower, bro.
Taller than the Empire State building
and they just slap it in sprinkles.
And I'm like, bro, covered in sprinkles.
The sprinkles have sprinkles.
Just blew my mind, man.
I was like, how do you guys do this so perfect every time?
Then you go to a buffet?
And you're like, man, I can do that.
What happens?
I'm like, I swear I'm doing this right.
Ew, bro.
When you try to make a, actually, you don't even,
you don't even finish it.
You try to do a twist cone at like a golden corral.
It looks like crap and you throw it away.
And you just end up putting ice cream in a bowl.
And that looks even worse.
You're like, how come when I put soft serve in a bowl,
it looks like a dog crapped in here.
Heard a lot of rumors about blizzards.
Oh my God, yeah, get that blizzard?
But ask for chocolate ice cream.
No.
No.
I'm a vanilla guy.
Let's keep you go.
So this is very niche, but one day broke my heart, and it was when Taco Johns, a very popular Mexican fast food restaurant up in the northern United States decided to stop selling buffalo wings, boneless wings right from the fast food drive-thru.
through. And yes, you could be sitting in your seat today saying gross, but they were delicious
and they were maybe my favorite fast food item of the times. And when I went through the fast food
window one time tried to order it and they said it was discontinued.
Like why? I maybe would have cried more than my worst breakup ever. It was
one of my worst moments
life went down
just kidding life was life's fine but
no it wasn't yeah no it wasn't
there's a lot of those man
food really hits
discontinued foods
I don't know what to type in
discontinued fast foods
it's always fast food for me
God man
um
Cini minis
I was just like wait what are you talking about
Like I was honestly like in shock.
No, we don't have those anymore.
Oh, I guess I was the only one in the whole world buying those then.
There's one that really hits, like crazy.
Oh, KFC used to have some.
Don't get me to start on KFC.
KFC, bro, I was, people don't know the history of KFC.
I do.
I do.
And I have facts to back it up.
My grandpa owned a KFC
and I can't say it enough, man.
Because that's like my,
that's like I should put that on a resume,
I feel like.
They used to have this little bucket of ice cream.
Ah!
Graham Cracker Bottom.
What?
Who's doing that?
Different flavors,
strawberry, chocolate,
and they were just stash
in my grandparents' freezer.
Never saw them again.
People really don't know about Subway.
Mm-hmm.
Before the cookies.
before the footlong cookie
Subboy had cupcakes
God, oh my God,
it's the best cupcake I've ever had.
Nobody knows about Subway cookies.
Nobody knows about Subway cupcakes,
nobody talks about them.
It's like they tried to erase them
from history or something.
I'm like,
bro, a chocolate-on-chocket
with a little kiss.
of icing on top.
Don't need the whole thing covered.
For once,
don't need the whole thing covered.
Just a little kiss on top.
It did the job.
Doesn't sound great, does it?
Yeah, it's just a chocolate cupcake
with chocolate frosting on top,
just a little bit of frosting.
Yeah, but the whole entire thing inside
was filled with fudge.
There's not a trace of it on the internet.
My daddy's coach football.
They had their spring game every year
and they called it the subway scrimmage.
The draw to get people to the spring game
was free subway for everybody.
Amazing.
This is a big moment in my childhood life.
Subway scrimmage?
Subway scrimmage?
Because I knew one thing was going to happen.
Because I had to work it.
You know what I mean?
My dad's the coach.
I'm not just sitting around.
Bro, I'm cutting.
You know what I'm doing, though?
I'm killing bees.
you've heard about the subway scrimmage B massacre before.
Just think party subs.
Think you've seen a subway.
Sometimes a subway party sub is like a rare thing to see.
It's like when you see a fox or something.
You're like, whoa, hey!
It's like, no, it's like when you actually see a horse
when you're driving on the side of the road.
Or a deer.
You see a deer.
Hey, look!
That's like when you see a subway party sub.
You're like, whoa, you never see them, bro.
But at like a vent, oh, baby, that, that, that, that braided bread.
Subway party subs have bread and it's all the bread like, like spun together.
It's the sexiest bread.
I wish they offered that for just normal subs, but they don't.
I'm talking about, like, maybe 80 party subs.
And they come on like boards, bro.
and you're cut like squares of them
all different flip
and they're wrapped in like plastic wrap
before you get them because the subway guy drops them all
it's just it's an amazing process
but it was a spring so bees were like
and I think I killed I had to kill
192 bees that day
I got in kill B activation mode
and I was like
sting me if you want
just rampage bro
Uh, uh, see ya, bang, ah, uh, anyway.
So like, we got the hookup.
My dad works the subway scrimmage.
He's a head coach.
He runs the show.
We get to take home all the subway after the game.
We're eating subway for months.
No one's sick of it.
Nobody cares.
At school, subway for lunch.
Four weeks in a row.
Doesn't matter.
Dinner, subway.
breakfast
subway
doesn't matter
but we also got the subway
cupcakes that nobody knows about
maybe they only like gave them
to the catering or so
I don't know
there might still be
subway cupcakes in my childhood
home somewhere
in the freezer buried back there
but bro those things
you warm one up after school
heat
subway cupcakes
real ones no
Arby's 5 for 5
I mean
we've been down this road before
Cini manis yeah
yeah yeah
KFC has a lot of these
McDonald's shakers
mix salad shakers in a cup
dude salad in a cup
is something that I've dreamed of my entire life
and I know it sounds lame
but I'm like
I think a lot of stuff
that we eat normally should just come in cup form
Ha ha ha ha.
Yeah.
Chop everything up.
I get a crunch.
It should be a cup option.
I'll take one crunch wrap Supreme in a cup.
Okay.
They just slice everything up.
Put it in a cup.
I just drink it.
KFC Twisters.
I forgot all about those.
KFC's revolutionary.
That's what I'm talking about right there.
Taco Bell Volcano menu.
And they had the hot fritos in the burrito.
For me, top three all-time Taco Bell menu item.
But that grilled cheese burrito is something different too.
That grilled cheese burrito from Taco Bell is a monster.
But my love is all.
All you talk about this food.
I asked an upperclassman girl to the dance.
And apparently the only reason she said yes was because I did ask in front of the entire school.
She let me know about an hour later that she wasn't going to make it.
to the dance with me
so then I just didn't show up
and I had to explain to the entire school
pretty much person by person
as to how I got rejected.
Damn.
But you know what? Some things you learn from
and other things aren't you
13 years later.
Ballsy move, dude.
Gutsy play.
Girls out of your league?
She's got to say yes.
You probably did at the pep rally or something.
honestly kind of a good move by her too like yeah like let's let's put on a show in front of the
whole school and then we'll really talk about this later good PR on both both sides for you guys dang
man thinking ahead she made up an excuse just wasn't meant to be sometimes those dances you
don't go to best nights your life i actually my plan going into high school was
I had no idea that we even had dances.
Going into high school, I was like, oh, there's,
it is honestly, like, very overwhelming.
I don't know if it was just me.
How did, part 932 of how did everyone know everything?
10 years before me.
I got to high school, homecoming.
I was like, what the, we have to do this?
I thought dances were over, bro.
Then I was like, okay, well, I'm not going to homecoming.
God.
Winter formal.
There's another one.
But the girls get to ask the guys.
I was like, well, that's a relief, but they're still not going to do it.
What a joke that was.
Girls ask guys to the dance.
I was like, in what world?
I was like, oh my God, there's another.
Never knew anything that was happening.
I was trying to go every year in high school without going to a dance.
God, what a relief that would have been.
I think I low-key might have only.
almost one homecoming one year.
I was like,
wait,
I might mess around and win.
I don't even know
if I'm going to go to the dance.
So much pressure,
especially when you're a freshman.
Dude,
you ask,
that is such a baller move.
Asking an older girl to the dance.
I was always my grade, bro.
I was like,
I'm not getting,
I'm not going,
I'm not dating down
and I'm not dating up.
Like,
we'll stay right here.
She's got every right to say yes.
But you date down.
It's like,
damn,
you must really like her.
date up, it's like,
shoot your shot.
That's big time shot shooting.
From deep.
Never forget when I didn't go to
Homecoming freshman year.
Had to convince all my friends.
I was like, it's not going to be fun.
Don't go.
I was like, are you serious?
You want to go to a dance?
What's the cool part about that?
I could not get through my head.
Just played video games the whole night.
That's a relief.
What up?
So,
I don't know if this is the type of heartbreak that you're looking for,
but something that really breaks my heart,
and it usually happens during every holiday,
is that I don't get to spend the holidays with, like, the core people
that I used to spend them with, like, growing up.
And that's just, you know, getting older and people just getting their own families,
and then branching off to like, you know,
there are also a significant other's family.
But, you know, when you grow up, you know,
usually spend every single holiday with like your core family members.
And then like your, you know, your mom or dad's brothers and sisters,
your aunts and uncles and your cousins.
And it's just crazy, you know, when you get older.
And like that, like, holidays come.
And like everybody's doing their like own thing
because they all have their own families.
So like I really just miss
Just being with my own family
And like spending those times together
And I'm happy that I had like a good probably
You know 18 years of that my life
And then when you get older you lose it
And it's sad
I mean I know Benny
You don't really care about those traditional holidays
And you'd rather spend them alone
Which is fine for you.
you, but for everybody else, it's a little sad.
Dude, no, I know.
I've been there.
Dude, you never knew.
You never knew when the last Christmas with your core family was going to be, but it happened.
The last core family Christmas?
Watched it come and go?

Any of that.
And they fooled you to think you were eating

Snack packs aren't bad, but it's literally one hit.

Saturday sunglasses day, never wore them in my life.
You can tell because my face looks like a baseball mitt, okay?
I just feel so stupid when I wear sunglasses.
I'm like, I can't, I can't, I can't just be out here.
I got to, I got to wear sunglasses.
I hate it when people are wearing sunglasses just because they're insecure too.
I'm like, you're like, I think it's like, 98% of people wear sunglasses because they're like,
I'm just like, I don't like, I don't want to be out here today.
Face your fears.

in seven months
sunglasses.
I can't take it.
Sunday.
Cherry day.
A bag of cherries, man.
Used to be that guy.
Used to be that guy.
What'll happen?
What's the worst that can happen
if I eat a bag of cherries every day?
Nothing?
You ever crack down on a pit, though?
Oh, okay.
All right, all right, all right.
Cherries are just playing with fire
because you'll forget.
I'm an idiot and I'll forget that there's a hard BB in the middle of every cherry.
And I'll just, oh, it's so good.
Oh, it's so good.
Crack my jaw in half.
Cherry's a top fruit, but man, that pit is, that's work.
All right, let's do Coachby Court of the Week.

Your composure is your power.
Your boundaries are your dignity.
Pretty good, pretty good.
Pretty good.
Here we go, though.
Here we go.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Got a gem.
When it feels scary to jump in,
that's exactly when you jump.
It's always true.
When it's the scariest, you know you got to do it.
God, you know you got to do it.
And you feel so guilty when you don't.
Why don't I do it?
And sometimes I've not jumped in before.
Plenty of times.
and I'm sick to my stomach
and I'm just like, why?
I mean, what am I doing it for?
You should be making a cannonball in that bit.
Dude, the regret if you don't jump in.
It hurts way more than the fear of jumping in.
Why didn't I just do it?
If you died tomorrow, you'd be like,
why the hell didn't I just do it?
Who cares?
Everything you wants on the other side of fear.
Jump.
Lock in, babe.
We're just getting started.
We're just getting started.
Yep.
Couple good weeks under the belt.
Seeing some progress.
Doing all the right things.
Can't lose if you're always winning.
Simple as that.
Science.
How's something going to go wrong if you don't do anything wrong?
What the hell?
How are you going to lose if you always win?
How are you going to lose if you get a dub every day?
Every day.
Every task.
Every single thing starts with waking up.
Literally, if I just get up.
If I just get up at the time I'm supposed to get up at,
if I, if I, I swear to God, it'll put me in a bad mood.
Well, that's the time I say I'm going to get up every morning.
and I usually do, but today,
dude, if I go seven minutes...
Oh!
Put me in a bad mood, yo.
All you got to do is get up at the time
and just start going.
Dub.
How you're going to lose if you keep getting them?
Can't.
All right, fam.
Crazy.
Love you guys for real.
Heartbreak's real, babe.
Especially when it's in third grade.
Especially when Dairy Queen's soft serve machine
doesn't serve chocolate.
but heartbraith's real.
Love you guys.
If you think of a question, let me know.
Get the real psychos in here, babe.
All right, fam.
Talk to you next week.
Ha, ha, ha.
Fine.
