state in your head.
That's a good rule.
That's gonna backfire on you.
No, I'm gonna backfire on you, buddy.
No, I know.
Some of these capitals are-
I can rifle capitals, bro.
What's the capital of Missouri?
Jefferson City.
Branson.
Might be Jackson City.
So you were wrong on all of them?
On the first try?
Here's the thing, if you're pretty close you
can keep the state. No.
If you're pretty close. No.
Alright fine, if you don't know it you're out. But what is the capital of Missouri? Is
it Jefferson City? It's Jackson.
Is it really? It's Jefferson City.
What's up baby? Wow.
I said that. I was right?
You didn't say anything. You asked me then I said it.
I said Jefferson City. What the? This is being recorded. We're gonna
check the tapes. Check the tape. I said Jefferson City. Chad, do you want to kick us off? Alright, I'm gonna do a little bit different one this time because we're gonna check the tape check the tape. I said Jefferson City
Uh Chad, do you want to kick us off? All right I'm gonna do a little bit different one this time because we got daddy in the building. Yeah, go baby
All right. All right. He's down. Let's bag him
Bag him yeah bag him
Do the sound effect terrible terrible what is with you? Look man. I'm trying to get he came in all relaxed
I'm trying to get my heart over here came in all relaxed, and I can't be relaxed.
I'm trying to get my hog heart over here
and watch you boys bag, and you're really.
No guitar, no guitar.
You're really hurting me.
Am I your monkey?
What are you talking about?
No guitar, no dongsong.
You're a monkey, you're on the show.
No guitar.
What do you mean?
Nobody asked me to bring my guitar.
You think that's made of monkey?
I tell you.
Give the people what they want.
I thought they were just chilling.
Give my scholarship back.
That's what you do.
All right, all right, all right.
All right.
I'll do it, I'll do it if he can't.
You want a bag?
You want a bag? I don't understand
Yeah, wait can I say something?
Yeah, I don't appreciate this guy coming in here telling me to bag when his Xbox is in his fucking garage
Whoa!
This guy hasn't played Call of Duty in probably like a year. Dude are you downloaded? Have you downloaded the update?
Hey, you know what? When was the last time you bagged?
Dude, it's been in there for two years. I think that's a great call
And you know waking the beast right now the beast is awakened called out of duty. Do you even like call of duty?
You just like bagging
Well, that's where you bag if you like bagging you have to sort of like that
boxing your Xbox
hasn't played for dance yet
I'm downloaded on ready to go you've every night you get on the thread and you're like, I'll be on later guys.
And then you never come on.
This is true.
And the guys are starting to call you out and be like, he said the other night.
He goes, I can't play because my wife is still at dinner.
Which would have been a great time to play.
Yeah, we were like, what does that mean, dude?
What does that mean?
So we were waiting to watch white lotus together
And I didn't exactly know and I didn't want to interrupt her dinner with her friends dude
So i'm chill and thoughtful and mindful and shit. There's no way that's what he was
Uh, and then if I get into a call of duty session I was gonna get really horny and then not want to watch white lotus when we had been out of town
And we've been horny to watch white lotus together. All due respect man. I'm not quite buying Are you just is that a useful deflection? Did you just want to watch White Lotus when we had been out of town and we had been horny to watch White Lotus together. All due respect, man.
I'm not quite buying, are you just,
is that a useful deflection?
Did you just want to do other stuff?
No, I mean, we traveled together.
What else was I doing?
That's what I don't know.
What were you doing?
I was chilling at my house.
It's all right if you don't want to play.
No, I want to play bad.
And then I have to work the next three nights.
So Thursday night, also we have a thread of the OG Dubb crew
and I did text you guys at like midnight
I was like I'm home and I could have game and no one was up
But you know, we've already signed off at that time
He knows JT how about this if you wanted it up there if you wanted to play he would play that's what I'm saying
That's what I'm saying
Tired after I'm traveling. I was a little tired after I'm traveling I was a
little that's okay let me ask this daddy have you been in Verdansk have you bagged
who are you texting? I just got I forgot to silence my phone I have been in
Verdansk I did not I did not have a chance to bag because there's a this is
the problem with Call of Duty still have you played to bag because there's a this is the problem with
Call of Duty still have you played the the version? It's like the casual version and there's a lot of bots
No, they put a lot of bots. You're not playing there's there's a battle royale and then there's like
Another battle royale the ones with just all real players and then ones like 50% bots
And Isaac likes to play in the bots one
Why what's the benefit because we get destroyed in the regular one?
But you're playing real people and the problem. Yeah, the problem is though people die a lot faster and are not hanging around
They're not hanging around so it's hard to bag the bots don't hang around but oh no wait, but I take that back
I did bag cuz I just came back to me and I remember it i'm remembering it right now and I was like
Fuck it. Take it take it and then isaac yelled at me and he said no stop and that's uh, and then I probably died
Dude, isaac sounds like no disrespect, but that's a dorky move going casual
Don't you want to play against real guys and bad guys better than you and all of us? Oh isaac?
Yeah, oh he's a beast.
Yeah, so you're questioning his judgment?
On this I am.
On this I am.
And he supported Gascon as the DA for another term,
and I thought that was a mistake.
Oh, he did?
Oh, he did?
I was going to say.
Oh, I'm sorry, John.
Are you now an expert on how to best protect our cities
and states?
I'm not an expert, but I thought we had enough evidence
to make an educated choice to go in another direction.
I'll give you a thing to think about.
Does it make a fucking difference?
See, I don't buy that.
There's a lot of people peddling that nihilism
as if things are always bad and we have no agency
in ever making them better.
No, that's not what I said.
That is a cop out.
You're always a little bit right,
but you're also often wrong.
Things ebb and flow and sometimes they are better
and sometimes the will of the people
is what makes them better.
So you take that cheap cynicism
and you sell it somewhere else
because I hear it all the time from lazy comics
and I will take it straight to pound town,
fuck it in the butt and make it no more, brother.
How many times have you been in fucking court
dealing with the DA?
What do you know about the DA
and the criminal justice system?
I was talking about your cynicism.
Don't parlay it into something else, brother, man.
I didn't say voting doesn't make a difference
I said these two DA's are not gonna make that much of a difference
Okay, copy copy you're making it more granular
It's not one of them likes to bluster and talk about being tough
And then the other one was trying to reform stuff
But when it comes down to it when I was in the fucking courtroom with experience in this shit with actual experience
There was no fucking difference.
Who'd you vote for?
I voted for Gascon.
You went back to Gascon?
I didn't, I've, what the fuck,
I didn't like the shit this other guy was saying.
He's coming up with this bravado,
like he's gonna come in and he's gonna be a tough guy
and all that.
When I'm in the courtrooms,
what I see is a criminal justice system
that's overcrowded with cases,
and the jails are
overcrowded. And the old way of just putting everybody and locking them up as long as you can
led to a situation where our jails got so filled up that the Supreme Court had to make a ruling
that made us reduce our sentences so much that we just have to release people. So, for example, when you get like a misdemeanor
or some felony sentences,
and you're going into county jail and not state prison,
you're serving five to 10%
because there's no room in the fucking jails.
So you could get a 200 day prison sentence
and you're gonna be in there for less than a week max.
So the old way didn't work.
And what Gascon was trying to do,
whether you liked it or not, he was trying to do some reforms where we don't waste our time putting
unnecessary people in jail. So because what's going to happen is they're just going to be
released anyways.
No, those are good points. But I think you do have to delineate on what unnecessary is.
I think most people feel like quality of life in Los Angeles has become more?
unsafe and that a lot of crimes that were worthy of investigation and maybe
Prosecution weren't being charged. Yeah, and that was across the board in the city because you're seeing on TV all those the fucking kids going Into the no, but I see people think it's that they think it's some kind of like availability heuristic
I don't think that's true. I think a lot of people felt like things were not like look going to stores
They weren't stopping people from shoplifting. What statistically were the violent crimes?
Did he make the violent crimes? They were about the same. They're about the same. Okay, so we go back to my original thing
It's the robbery and stuff like that wasn't always being charged
Cops weren't arresting people because they didn't think the DA would follow up on it
Is that the the the cops are being babies?
The cops, why are they going to arrest someone if the DA is not going to charge them?
Their job is to arrest somebody and give it to the DA and then the DA decides whether
or not they're going to file charges.
I'm just saying the statistics weren't totally representative of what we were hearing from
people on the streets when police officers were saying that they were arresting less
because things weren't being followed up on by the DA.
Okay.
Well, uh, as we've seen, everything has changed.
This is what we really wanted to talk about on here. This is what's up. weren't being followed up on by the DA. Okay. Well, hey, I've seen everything. We're distancing.
We really wanted to talk about on here.
This is what we want.
We know who started this.
This is Chad's fault for
coming at me hard to tell me to bag.
And he's not even fucking bagging.
I was relaxed up top, wasn't I?
I was relaxed.
Can I say something?
He's going to relax this podcast.
I feel good.
Yeah, I'm trying to change it up. I'm trying to be more relaxed. And Kevin, I'm not relax this podcast
Change it up. I'm trying to be more relaxed and
Talk about a potty humor, and I'm gonna try to just be a normal podcast guest Kevin. I'm gonna ask you one more time
All right, I'm just gonna say it down let's bag him no get on fucking call of duty
Wow, we'll do it in person. Wow dude. We'll do it live
Alright, fair enough Am I gonna have a commitment for you to take your Xbox out of your garage? No
And you know that would really kick this off is I do think it's lame that Isaac's playing against bots when he could be playing
Against real people yeah, but he has to play with people like us
But if he's already good just dominate why practice?
I don't know bots are the bots ranked at your playing level?
Like the game automatically queues up bots?
I think what it does is like half of it starts with bots and half of it's real people.
So when it comes to the final circle, it's all real people.
I also want to say-
Let's get some kills along the way.
But every time I get- I don't like playing it because every time I get a kill I go, oh,
that had to be a bot if I'm getting a kill.
Yeah, you're bagging a bot. I got a question. Is it same guns as before like roughly the kilos still there
Yeah, XM force a lot of the same guns
Does it feel like the same thing or has it have they like kind of like enhance the graphics or something?
No, it's very similar. It's probably a little smoother. I'd say it looks good. It's it's been fun
We had some good games last night
Holden houses. Oh, I love holding houses. Just talking about movies dude talking about white lotus while you're holding the house, dude
I also want to footnote. I'm not sure Isaac was actually in support of gas can I can I bring up before we get into the
draft white lotus
It's bad. Can we can we get in the no no another thing that I feel another thing that I watched. Hmm. Yeah
Fucking that anora movie.
Oh yeah.
The one with all the Oscars.
Look at how horny he is.
Look at how horny he is.
I gotta watch this one.
I would say like the first three quarters of that movie is, fuck, it's a vibe.
You know, because like Seven wanted to put a, she wanted to, my wife wanted to put it on.
And I was all, okay, I didn't really know much about it and then she's
all it's about like a stripper a prostitute and I'm all alright let's
watch it and then first thing I said is you think there's gonna be some
titties in it and she's like being immature in the first fucking frame of
the movie just a titty and I was locked in and yeah the strip club scenes were
like it was realistic like it was even the guy, the actors playing
like the nervous guy at the strip club.
I was fucking, I was locked in.
And you're an expert.
Like you're so good at a stripper vibe.
I'm not the best in strip clubs per se,
but I did recently go to a strip club where I-
You go every day to get the spaghetti. No, I went.
Funny story is it was after the Dresden night.
OK, so we went to the Dresden night.
These two came, you were out of town.
So we went to Dresden night, we did Dresden dinner.
These two, of course, after the dinner, these two left because, you know,
and they didn't come to the bar, which is the best part. There was a the Dresden. There was a vibe. There was a jazz band and they were playing we were vibing hard, but
There's a big problem with Joe these days
He lives close to this bar
He always has to go to that all the naughty pig. So we're vibing out
We're in the Dresden Dresden's in like Los Feliz and East Hollywood and stuff. We're vibing out and Dresden for some reason closed. The only weird thing is it like
closed at 1230. So we're vibing hard. We had a booth. That's weak. We were vibing hard. A girl
came up to hit on Joe. A girl came up to our table. She gave a pickup line to Joe to try to pick him
up. Are you, you seem shocked.
No, I'm not shocked.
She came straight up to him, straight up macked on him.
We left, we went outside of the...
Was she a coo girl?
What were we dealing with here?
I would describe, she was a nice girl.
She looked like a nice girl.
And she was with her friend.
At this point, me and my friend,
we were completely fucked.
So we go outside, orders an Uber Black,
because that's what we do on President Night.
And these girls, so the girl that hit on Joe,
and then her friend, who was not as,
she was looking for like a bar in the area,
was not as on board to like come along.
So, and I was sort of like, let's just go find,
I don't wanna hang out with these girls,
but we can wing for Joe or whatever.
But her friend seems so like uninterested
in hanging out with us, that I was like,
I was with her vibe.
I was like, you don't need to hang out with us.
So we order, so I'm bad at telling this story,
but basically they decided they're not gonna come with us.
And then the Uber Black rolls up,
and they see the Uber Black,
and then for some reason they just jump into our car.
Dude, ladies love Uber Black.
And then unbeknownst to me-
Is that Chevy Suburban 2012?
Get in.
Unbeknownst to me, Joe had told,
when I was ordering the Uber Black,
Joe told him there's this cool bar and it's called the naughty pig and
Then so we go from the Dresden all the way to the other side of sunset brutal to this
This bar it's a sports bar
It's it's fine
But it's not like the vibe after you go to the Dresden when you're wearing nice clothes and stuff like so we go in
It's packed everybody's like singing karaoke
So me and my friend had we had enough of this and then we said uh Joe we're gonna go next door to the
body shop which is the strip club on by the comedy store yeah because just we we had no other option
and uh no there's no other bars in the sunset strip and then we're all and then we're on
peaches tacos Joe we're going to the body shop, come on.
He's all, now, that'll come on, man.
Nah, I'm gonna stay here.
So it just me and him go,
and I was surprised, the vibe in there was,
they had like pink and purple lights,
and the vibes were just immaculate.
And what I did is is I don't deal around
with all the lap dances and stuff like that.
I went straight to the center stage
and I sit on that chair.
I get a bunch of ones and then just every few,
I'm just chilling and I'm just observing everybody.
I'm cucking on everybody in the strip club.
And there's this like one,
there's this group of like 18 year old kid,
the clearly like 18 year old, first time at strip club.
This kid was wearing sunglasses.
He was standing up, right?
You know when the stripper on stage comes up
to you personally?
And she was doing that thing where, you know,
she was like bent over, like ass towards his face.
And he was standing up, sunglasses on,
and he was fucking making it rain, right?
Fucking on her.
And I was just sitting there fucking enjoying I was
Experiencing it with him like through his eyes. I'm all this guy's happy and
I
Don't know what the point of that story
What's the problem with Joe? Yeah, yeah, that's why the problem was we why am I don't know why I brought up the problem
But why are we going to the naughty pig after the dress and I is a good question
Yeah, but I don't know how that started
It was just getting it back to the bar
That's closest to him because he has like a plan and I knew we're talking about strip club
We were talking about strip clubs Joe only does like three or four things
Yeah, like in his life and so if you try to break him from that pattern
His he can't do it. He's got to do the laundry. He's got to go to the naughty pig
He's always got one grocery store. That's his go-to and if it's like more than five blocks away
It's out of the rotation
Like you gotta remember when joe lived above
Sunset in his first apartment in la or when I met him him at least, he was like, I don't go south of Melrose.
I'm not a Southwest Hollywood guy.
And then he moved in with me.
And then within a couple months, he was like,
I don't go north of Melrose.
I'm a Southwest Hollywood guy.
And now he's back above and he's, it's like,
he's very like, I don't know, he's, he's,
he's got his world.
He's got his world.
He's got his habits and it's and it's a small network
Yeah, but uh
The the vibe in there was great, but that movie was I thought it picked up on a
Lot of funny stuff. I don't know if it's an Oscar movie, but I mean that's what hurt it I think you were saying that right? Yeah, so I watched it after I watched it once it won the Oscar
I'm like, oh, I have to check out this movie It was good like if I didn't know I'd be like oh this movie's amazing dude like super fun Yeah, so I watched it after I watched it once it won the Oscar I'm like, oh, I'm check out this movie. It was good
Like if I didn't know I'd be like, oh this movie's amazing dude, like super fun amazing, but I'm like, but who?
Yeah, but what was the competition to I thought do I thought the Dylan movie? Oh, oh, yeah
Let's let's back up the fucking Bob Dylan movie was was fucking it
Perfect. It was so good. That's what I think it was so good that's what I
think it was so good no no first of all I think I said garbage no no no yeah I
was on the edge of my seat Timothy Chalamet who I don't even think this is
his fault come like the Willy Wonka movie like I watched that and I was I I
was you were out I was repulsed on what they did with Willy Wonka you can't
match the charm of Gene Wilder and then they tried to make it like serious and stuff like that
I was repulsed and then I was I was scared
I was scared what was gonna happen with Bob Dylan and I watched that movie that motherfucker sat there
He learned the guitar. He learned all of his songs unlike
So he's playing those?
Yeah, who is the guy who is a guy who did the Johnny Cash movie it didn't even look like he could learn a fucking a
chord in a D chord Timothy Chalamet obviously spent I don't think he played
guitar before this he spent a lot of time working on guitar these aren't I
mean these aren't insanely difficult songs to learn but the finger picking
and stuff is something that you have to spend a lot of time to get comfortable
Doing the movie was like it took me into the 60s that the woman who played Joan by it
Yeah, Monica Bachar was there was parts of the movie where I felt I feel like I'm talking too much now
Let's talk a lot, but I like it. You're cooking. Let's know people like people like the people want the draft
But it was a great movie. I'm so but yeah, the Bob Dylan movie was the best movie. I saw this year. I loved it. Yeah, but just more plane
Anora was great and you know and chalamet had another one dune 2 yeah was like
Awesome it was like Empire Strikes Back good
Great ending the ending was like whoa like it felt
Surprising but inevitable and and his performance in that
one is badass and good dude man Chalamet is a man dude everyone loves Chalamet dude you
watch the Oscars even win a fucking award he didn't win any award no they gave it to
Brody for the Brutalist which is like so dumb I didn't see that movie but I like him okay
the movies it's for the amount of money they had to make that movie. The size of it is incredible
But dude, I'm just gonna can I spoil it? Yeah, please please. So like alright this guy survives the Holocaust He's like a genius architect this this rich
Philanthropist finds him says hey, I'll pay for your project the rich philanthropist just likes being close to his genius
But he's kind of a weird like brute
But I got yours got like a heroin addiction.
His wife actually survived the Holocaust.
He didn't know. They get reunited.
She's paralyzed.
It's all very, very sad.
The rich guy's kid is probably like sexually assaulting his niece.
But Adrian Brody's character is like,
I just gotta get this done. I gotta get this done.
You watch two hours of that. You take a 15 minute break.
The movie's gone on intermissionmission you go and get a soda you
Come back the brute rich guy goes to Europe with Adrian Brody and rips him
Now I gotta tell you I was already bummed out enough. I did not need that
I get what the message was was just like rich people just like love to like rip out the soul of artists like they
Metaphorically, but I was like I got it before
you did the real thing and it added nothing and it just bums you out and it's all I think about
when I think about the movie now. Yeah my dad was talking about the Bob Dylan movie he's like if
Chalmet doesn't win the Oscar Hollywood has lost its way forever. If you like like if you like music
from that era so I exclusively like 60s and 70s movie music is my vibe.
And if you're sort of obsessed with that,
these people live that era,
but I'm sort of like in that area.
It was good.
The songs are good.
It was a good solid movie.
And Enora, so watch Bob Dylan and then watch Enora.
So did Enora make you horny
Did you bust?
I didn't well cuz I was watching it with my wife
But I was like when I'm watching it. I'm like
And oh, yeah, so if you were alone, but it was a good movie. I don't want to I don't want to make it
I'm gonna reduce it to that. I'm not reducing it. Every time Chad tries to get you to go somewhere, you're just not going.
It had Armenians too.
It had a good Armenian contingent.
That guy was great. That actor was amazing.
Did I offend you before this pod?
You offended me during the pod.
By asking you to bag?
I'm telling you, you're not playing.
It's not our thing because we're not playing anymore
You put your Xbox in the garage, man
I love that the image
Is that true it's in the garage?
It's in his fucking garage
The garage that I got him
You got him in the garage?
I helped him negotiate his lease
and we added in the garage
I think, what, just tell him to add the garage
I remember something like that, right?
No, he gave me the script and if I knew it was gonna be Xbox storage garage
I wouldn't have done it. No. Yeah, exactly. I made him pay double. Yeah, you're right. You're right. Maybe I'll you know, I
I'm gonna put in my living room
I'm gonna put it in my living room. I mean, you know, yeah, we'll see.
I'll believe it when we see it, you know.
Before we get into the draft, we're not drafting.
Oh, OK, good.
So can I make a it's not a movie of this year,
but it's a movie that I've watched twice in like the past couple of months.
Yeah. And I feel like it's the most underrated movie of all time.
No, RoboCop.
Oh, that movie always bummed me out.
Original RoboCop is a flawless movie.
This must be the best movie of all time.
RoboCop, I think it's like 1987 or 1989.
It is so good.
It has everything.
This kind of relates to what we were talking about
with the DA stuff.
Is that why you like it?
Cause it's a little bit about like
a elevated vigilante justice. No it's just like that the action the the ridiculousness of like the it has like a sort of a Star Wars like
It's Paul Verhoeven directed it. It's the guy who did like basic instinct. It's just insane starship troopers
Well, yeah, we look up robocop real quick. It's good like social commentary, right? Isn't it like a satire. No. It's just like a
That's where I was trying to go. I think you and me are on a different wavelength than kevo over here
It's not it's just a good fucking action. It is a good man. Peter Weller's good. He was just on Marin. I got to listen
Oh, it was it's just such a good movie. You got a watch if you haven't watched RoboCop pull up max

80s early 90s act fires are good
Detroit they got a statue in there, you know, I watch recently Crimson Tide
Because I'm Gene Haxman's in that run right all those movies anyone any movie with Gene Haxman Fred Thompson
Yeah, those kind of uh, enemy of the state. Oh
Jackman, Fred Thompson, those kind of... Enemy of the State.
Oh yeah.

You know the dad from that 70's show?
He's the main villain in Robocop and he's he's a he's a good
Very like believable villain and then you can go from that 70 show. It's
It's uh, oh
Well, oh I thought they were talking about the movie easy writer. That's also a good movie
Is anyone here one good scene is anyone here excited for last of us?
You ride to easy writer has won. Oh, yeah I'll be excited to watch that what did you watch last of us the last of us? Yeah

That's a show that I'll watch
I feel like it could have just been one season. The first season was good.
Had a good little twist at the end.
Yeah, has changed a heart,
but I'll be excited to check out season two.
I have a mic, but the best show of the year is Severance.
Oh, yeah, I don't know.
I need to check back Severance.
A real slow start.
Severance, wait, is that the,
that's the show, is that the Fox News show?
Or about the family over there
That's not severance succession succession severance is what with Adam Scott where you go down below and you're like a different
Oh, they're still our show. Okay, you're severed. I think
Personal life is severed. I think it came around. I did enjoy the ending it it ramped up answered a few questions
But like the first three episodes, season two.
Season one was amazing.
It was also just so long between season one and two.
Like I didn't care the first few episodes
about any character, but it's pretty sick.
All right, should we draft?
Yeah, I just want to say something though.
I feel, I think I remember the last.
Because I'm serious.
Can I piss while Kevin talks?
No, no, no, you stay here.
I have to take a leak though before.
It's a good time to take a leak.
OK, wait, I'm going to go piss too.
I'm professional.
OK, I feel like I can't remember it fully, but the last time I was here,
I think I talked about strip clubs for an extended time, too.
Yeah, I just want to say I don't go to strip clubs a lot.
I'm a respectful guy, but I think it was a vibe.
You go the most out of all of us. I don't go to strip clubs a lot. I'm a respectful guy, but I think it was a vibe

San Diego I think has the most temperate climate in the world.
It's like the best temperature ever naturally.
Back in the day, if you want to go to ancient history type shit,
there was no conquering empire in California
because the pockets of resources were so fucking dank
that every ancient tribe had what they needed
where they were at, dude.
So it was a benevolent place to live, dude.
Granted, of course, there was beef, dude.

Yup.
Well that's the thing too.
Every city is rough.
Like we've traveled to all the cities.
They all have the same problems.
California is not exclusive in that.
Our problems are just bigger.
We have more people, dude.
Yeah, if it was so bad, then it would be affordable, okay?
Totally.
Also, they're annoying.
California is so diverse.
And we gotta build more.
We have too restrictive of a policy around it.
Yeah, okay, let's tamp down on the policy stuff.
The only policy here is that.
Is that this is dank, but you're right.
No place is perfect.
70%.
No.
You can only build a single family home
in Los Angeles stuff.
That's whack.

Oh yeah. The tallest
state, the tallest mountain in the contiguous United States, huh? The
tallest mountain. What up? And you're watching and you're looking at those snow
capped peaks and you're driving down then you're slowly going up the grade

Yeah, yeah, we got is running around there shredded dude, yeah, San Diego
Okay my pick.
I mean, I gotta do it.
I think it's an obvious number two
because it's the cultural capital, New York.
Yeah.
I think we gotta go unanimous here.
New York City itself takes the cake.
It's the greatest city in the country, I think.
Yeah.
Arguably one of the greatest cities in the world. Yeah. It's beautiful. Probably the best city in the world. It's got everything. It's the greatest city in the country. I think yeah, arguably one of the greatest cities in the world. Yeah, it's beautiful
Probably the best city in the world. It's got everything. It's got culture. It's got nightlife. It's the financial powerhouse of the world

Everything.
It's kind of like upstate New York is pretty.
It's got Buffalo.
It's got Josh Allen and Hailey Steinfeld right now.
That's right.
That's a relationship that I like, dude.
That's right.
It's, yeah, it's New York City.
You go, you take your lady to the city.
You go see Broadway.
You go back to your hotel room. You fuck. It's a York City. You go, you take your lady to the city. You go see Broadway. You go back to your hotel room. You fuck.
It's a nice ass town. You can have
every meal in the world. I said LA has great food. New York probably has the best food in the world.
Best food. You can't get a bad meal in New York City. You go to an Italian restaurant.
It's a vibe. D'Angelo's in Little Italy. What up?
Dude. Penny Vodka. Also oh, what was I gonna say?
Fuck, I forget.
Okay, so what do musicians sing about
in terms of locations the most?
California and New York.
Yeah. 100%.
Yep.
Bob Dylan in the movie, where did he go to hit it big?
He went to New York. New York.
New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of.
Also, there's a lot of good architecture.
I think there's some good Frank Lloyd Wright homes
in upstate New York.
There's some beautiful, like you can get some beautiful
lakeside and some beautiful nature in New York,
funny enough.
Upstate's sick.
Yeah, well, when I went to boarding school,
I would party in New York state.
In the summertime, you know, it's humid,
but it's nice up there.
You got the best ticks probably.
Amazing ticks.
We just touched hands.
We just touched Lyme disease.
Great Lyme disease up there.
I think, so can I say something?
So I think this is unanimous too.
Are we going unanimous second pick for sure?
I actually, I'm not, I think it's up for debate
but it's a great number two pick.
But I just wanna say to all the pussies right now who
California in New York don't act like you wouldn't if you could afford
Like a penthouse in Manhattan
There right now. Yeah one of those walk-up in there. I'd go there
Think about New York to chat already said it when you walk around the streets in New York, you're like this is peak alive
Yeah, like a vibe. It's a vibe. It's a vibe. It's an energy people talk about it feels like a cliche
But the moment you're there, it's a fucking fire and it makes you smarter. It makes you more yourself
It makes you more like a real person. I just think don't get a you are it's funny
Like people do like isolationism to find their self
Which is one method
and probably good and healthy, like the transcendentalists.
But if you go to New York and you're in entertainment
or any probably industry, you have to carve out a lane
for you, like whether you like it or not.
So it's trying.
You gotta try to talk, you gotta be able to like hold
your space and dude, like the subway,
it's the great equalizer.
I mean, the one thing that I'll say negatively,
there's a bunch you can say now, but like LA's lack of like the subway, it's the great equalizer. I mean, the one thing that I'll say negatively, there's a bunch you can say now, but like
LA's lack of like good transportation, public transportation is brutal.
And New York, you're on that subway with everyone.
And like Louis CK said on that Shane Gillis podcast,
you look at other people on the subway and you're face to face with humanity.
And you're like, you're not that bad. And I'm not that great.
It's like we're it's it really makes the city less like
divided by money. Yeah by money versus Los Angeles.
And also might have the most pride.
Yes.
I mean, there's other places you could argue, but it's got a lot of pride.
The most justified pride because there's other places that have pride and you're
like, what the hell are you talking about?
Oh yeah.
Like a city that just won the Superbowl.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I've been to the, oh yeah, shut up guys.
Yeah.
Dude, Manhattan, Brooklyn,
like when Williamsburg was coming up
when we were youngins, you know,
and it was like the hipster capital of the world.
Staten Island, you know Staten Island, the trash,
which I don't think they dumped there anymore,
it's the largest, it's the most volume manmade anything
in the world is the trash dump from the trash of New York that they just had around all day
Yeah, and Staten Island. I guess it's a lot like the Enora people. That's that's what I'm a buddy who hangs there says it's
Everyone's like they're from Enora. Yeah. Well Nora's like Brighton Beach. I think that's a huge Russian
population on
Brighton Beach and do you think about like, just like the,
it's especially the grown up, you know,
you watch things like the Today Show and Good Morning,
you watch the things happen in New York.
Like they happen there first.
The New Year. They drop the ball.
Exactly, bro.
It's so funny you thought of that, yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, even look.
Yeah.
Where did the terrorists want to attack? Exactly, dude. You're right funny you thought of that, yeah. Yeah. I mean, even look. Yeah. Where did the terrorists wanna attack?
Exactly, dude.
You're right.
They had 9-11.
Yep.
Like, you're kinda the tip of the spear
if they're going after you.
And dude, they got the mob too.
Dude, that's a good call.
Dude, organized crime capital.
Yeah.
That's cool.
They get everything.
Madison Square Garden.

A lot of history there in and of itself.

but I feel like-
I don't know, is there?
I do feel like,
there's a state that I feel like
the audience would want me to pick and they're gonna go like don't do that don't pander be yourself
I don't want to pick that state because I feel like that state is like I'm seeing
too much of it I'm seeing too much of it it's too cocky right now and it's it's
all over and everybody I hear everybody looks like they're from that state with
their I hear you bullets I hear you know you know what I'm talking about and stuff like that.
So I'm not going to get, I'm going to lose
I already know I'm going to lose the draft
because I don't have California. Yep.
Or New York. Yep. So I'm going to just
I'm going to go to a feel good
state. I think this might be
controversial too because I
don't know but I'm going to go Hawaii.
I love it. That's a great pick. I would have done that.
I would have done that. I would have done that.
Hawaii is our sanctuary.
It's our island, aside from California,
where you can just go relax,
fucking have some pineapples or a pina colada.
Funny enough, pineapple's not native to Hawaii,
but they're well, but no, but I mean,
a pina colada there, absolutely.
That was brilliant.
That was brilliant. I went to a pineapple farm when I was the thing but you keep going
keep going because I love Hawaii I love this you got and different things on
every island you got pipeline best place I'm surfing that's best surfing in the
in the United States or some would say the world
The people are chill they got their own language pigeon
It's our own paradise. Yeah, and it's the paradise of the USA. The people are great Yeah, macadamia nuts the best food in the world. Yeah, best people
Luau's all this shit Luau's a great great vibe. And you know what's cool about Hawaii too is every
Island has its own personality. Yeah, that's I said that. Oh, yeah. Sorry. Yeah, so you can find the place that really matches you
Oh, dude, what island matches you? Kauai. Kauai? Nice. I've only I've only been to Maui. I love Maui
That's my that's the I've been to Maui and Honolulu
Yeah, or I guess Oahu
and also I've been to Maui and Honolulu. That was sick. Yeah. Or I guess Oahu would be Honolulu. And also, ukuleles.
Ukuleles, and speaking of which,
Nice.
Where did the Japanese bomb?
Pearl Harbor, good call.
Oh, you're right.
They knew the Pacific Fleet was there, what up?
Good call.
Wait, let's just.
They have WW2 history there.
Also good space observation down the big island.
They have like an elevated observatory for seeing stars. Which you just look at when you hear Hawaii you just feel relaxed
It's got that what's the famous song the Hawaii song
Yeah, yeah, yeah, well, it's yeah that got the guy covered it yeah
The Duke bro surfing was kind of maybe I mean could have been invented elsewhere
But they say maybe invented in Hawaii, but the Duke, you know
It was kind of maybe I mean could have been invented elsewhere, but they say maybe invented in Hawaii with the Duke You know arguable but but sick, you know what they call it in pigeon. You know what they call like like
White guys, you know like in Mexico. They call you a gringo. Yeah, how Lee?
So have you seen North Shore bro, of course dog Hallie bro turtle and dude Hawaiian guys are so strong
Yes, they got such sick rigs and like football players who come out of there are always just like
brick shit houses. Yep
Legit dude, you could say I mean, I don't I don't know the history that well, but it seems like it was
Somewhat of a utopia before we came in. No problem. Yeah. Yeah, I mean the Queen like us took it over was definitely
Yeah, pokey. I don't know the history it over was definitely that those guys. Yeah pokey
I don't know the history. I'm sure the people did not want to be assimilated. Oh that guy's got a great body
How big do you think is going to get quad development?
All right, I'm up jacked here we go, you know Kevin I thought that was a great pick you went sentimental
but you left a lot of GDP on the board. And I got
to come straight down the middle and I get where you're coming from. Culturally, maybe
we have our disagreements. But this state powers our nation. Natural gas, oil, resources. And if you make your bank there, you can keep your bank there.
No state income tax.
Also, they know how to house you.
Five of the 13 largest cities in America reside in this state.
Don't tread on me.
The Lone Star State, Texas, dude.
That wasn't the state I was talking about.
But yeah, really? No. Oh, I know what state you're talking about, but yeah. Really? No.
I know what state you were talking about.
Yeah.
Interesting.
This is a great pick.
I mean, it's don't mess with Texas.
It's got its own identity.
A lot of good movies, cowboy culture.
Yeah, I feel like you have to.
Good barbecue.
I mean, Houston's got the J.B. Prince,
I think is the dude's name.
It's got rap, it's got drill.
It's got other things that I'm just kind of guessing at.
Austin, one of the great artistic hubs of America.
You know, I mean, great writers, thinkers, Richard Linklater.
Love them.
All came through there.
Wes Anderson.
I mean, there was a specific kind of hipster that comes out of Texas that can
match that idiosyncratic, you know, maverick spirit, which is a really good artistic frame.
And San Antonio, very underrated city, the way the water cuts through it.
I want to go to full Dallas and Fort Worth.
Tremendous, the glitz and the glam.
And yeah, I'm just a huge fan of Texas.
I think the people are really cool there.
They have a really good time.
They get after it more so than people in L.A.
don't have that much fun.
When I was in Houston, I was like, people here are having a good time they get after it more so than people in LA don't have that much fun when I was in Houston I was like people here having a good time. Yeah, what I mean by fun though, like they can't go to
the mountains or anything by fun. What do you mean? Just getting shit face. I just mean when
they're out when it's wall to wall in a bar and everybody's just actually having a good time in
LA people are a little more self-conscious. Oh, and yeah, I just think it does so much tech is
moving there. So it's big for industry
They just kind of check all the boxes and there's so many different things you can explore there. So I'm going Texas football
Do I mean West Texas football varsity blue show is pretty good with Friday night lights with Billy
Landman landman shit. It's It's America. It's pure America.
I don't know if it's pure America.
I feel like it is.
It is.
It is.
Where everybody has to go to,
because it's cheaper.
I'm not saying that's a bad thing, but.
But that conservative individualism,
Texas represents that better than any other places.
But not in their legislature.
What do you mean?
I just had to say that.
Oh yeah.
What do you mean?
He's upset with their.
I mean, don't you get in trouble
for smoking weed in Texas.
Oh yeah, Texas is a state of individual rights
but you can't delta-A.
Texas is freedom unless you wanna smoke weed.
Cook, baby, let it rip.
Also, you're a big panhandle guy, dude.
No dispensaries in Texas, no.
You can't just go get a fucking.
You can't chill.
For a state that's all about.
You can't get a joint.
Don't tread on me does a lot of treading yeah tread on the chill if you have an accidental pregnancy
Look out Texas chill. They're not gonna be you're not okay. It's true better drive to New Mexico
Oh, it's right, but dude speaking of tragedies JFK got killed there JFK
That's a fun thing to do in Dallas when they kind of claim them. They're like he's one of us
Yeah, it's a good tour George Bush is from Connecticut or something but he loves Texas so much that he became a
Texan you know that's a good thing about certain states and I think all of our
states have that when you go there you become you go there to almost join in on
that culture of the state yeah you know people come to California and like
within a couple years like Chaka brah and that happens big time in Hawaii yeah, Texas is similar you get there you get a belt buckle you start walking around like
Solid choice. I just think the only thing about Texas is it seems to be the place where you go after you
Your original place. Well, that doesn't work out. That's California to
People come in the California. Yeah when it doesn't work out. They come to California for a dream.
But people go to Texas when it does work out.
A lot of rich people move to Texas.
Yeah, you run your business out of there
because of the no tax.
But I hear the property tax is pretty high.
That's how they get you.
But I think it's a solid choice for number four.
And you know what?
I'm kind of going in the same vein.
I'm glad I got this pick.
I love this state.
It's one of my favorite places to go to.
And I mentioned that they have a good time in Texas. No state has a better time than this state.
No, don't do it.
They get after it more than anywhere, especially if you're in their, not their biggest city,
but their most famous city. A party feels like it could bust out on every street corner at any time.
It's a multicultural utopia and
dude honestly it's got fun sub pockets too. You can get into swamp in there
like you can be glitz and glammy or you can be down and dirty. I'm going with
Florida baby. I really wanted this one man. Look and yeah it hurts me to take
it from you dog because it's got Disney World, it's got Epcot, it's huge on the
amusement park. The cultural epicenter of the world. Orlando. It's got Epcot. It's huge on the amusement park. The cultural epicenter of the world. Orlando.
Number one. It's got Orlando. You got Miami.
I mean, dude, the whole surrounding Miami area is lit.
Like Fort Lauderdale, Palm Beach.
There's not a better place to get married than there.
I'll put it above Orange County and San Diego for marriages.
Best marriage I ever went to was that.
Danny Babona.
Danny Babona got married there? In Palm Beach, dude Beach to do it ripped. We had a blast. Yeah
I think JT you're a contender now because you have a side of the voted the
Listeners that are gonna be really fired up and take a really smart drafts in Florida
They're gonna and I went with two states where you made some good points about how the religious conservative legislature
Loses track of our individual rights at times, but I also think each individual rights more than I also think look Florida
You know they they charted their own path during a lot of national
Situations and people were better off financially because of it and they felt more free because of it and I look I don't agree
With it and especially at the time, but I got to speak to it
So here I am saying you know all you people out in Florida you do it your way and I respect it
And then you go to Key West if you're a criminal and you want to be forgotten you go to Key West
You get a charter you kitchen Marlin off the coast. You don't like that. That's what Armahammer did big for boating
You don't want to get some tuna. But dude, you know what the weather
Pretty unlivable and I've got buddies who go to Florida.
Pretty unlivable for about four to five months a year.
You're balls.
And dude, the nature, you're not a nature guy.
I'm a nature guy?
I have you on record.
I have you on record saying you like planned cities.
Don't let my...
More than anyone. But I'll tell you right now.
I have buddies who moved to Florida.
You can't fucking live there for four months of the year.
A hurricanes, if you watch a hurricane map, because Texas, it's wide, it's fat, a lot
of land, which I'm glad you have it on your list.
So hurricanes can die there.
Harvey was different because it just hung over Houston for a long time, didn't really
move.
But Florida, any part of the state- Oh no, yeah, California doesn't have any natural
disasters.
We didn't just survive the worst fire in history here. I mean come on man. You know what? We got bad
wildfires but that's part of the state. I'm saying this entire motherfucking state, you
could get swept up in a hurricane, you're done. This whole state could get up in a blaze
tomorrow. We're on a fault line. Also not even natural disasters, just the weather itself from a day-to-day base is a disaster
That's fair, but I'm not gonna have you
State as just an ecological disaster
Logical disaster like the number one place to visit the temperature was a hundred and one fucking degrees
That's a good point. That's a good point. Thank you for saying this disgusting best surfer in the world came from Florida
But here's what I'll say the surf there sucks. There's not a better beach to take a dip in than, Florida
Have you been North Californian got in the water Mavericks it's you've never gotten the water there
Got in the water there
Dry cleanse my spirit the waters cool. You said, North, California. Whatever I said I said it and I'm
For the waters let me let me give one positive for Florida. Thank you. Yeah talk Why don't you say that first it looks like a cock and I think that's like a gun get out it looks like a gun
Not a cock. It's a guy like a limp cock so I like the shape of it, is what I'm saying.
It's got a great shape, big.
Miami is sick as fuck.
The reason I didn't pick Florida for the third pick is,
I was talking about, when I'm on my
goddamn Instagram,
and every fucking influencer
basically looks, they have the same hair,
they look like they're from Florida, and they have
the weird half mullet, and all this shit,
and they're dressed the same, and it every I feel like it's it's it I feel like we're
becoming Florida.
I feel like it's and I don't even know if we're becoming Florida but the people on my
phone are I feel like I'm constantly in it and I don't want that much of it.
You can live honestly there you'll see a a rich, ugly guy with a young,
big-breasted woman in his Ferrari,
and there's no frills or faking about it.
They say, yes, this is transactional,
but all of life at some level is transactional.
You can see that in Orange County, JT.
Not the way you see it in Florida, brother.
Florida is a totally different animal in Miami.
Unabashed?
Unabashed.
Unabashed.
It's honestly, I'd say it's praised.
And I'll tell you, I love it.
And in Miami, city great party great
So you're turning you're turning
And here's something Strider doesn't understand I love him to death and he's right about the weather to an extent
But the guy it's unlivable for my he's he's he's just so white you know what I mean
So he's never gonna be a Miami guy me. I'm Colomb Colombian. So when I'm there, everybody's speaking Spanish.
We're having arepas.
I know you guys had some last time from doggies.
You really liked them.
Amazing.
So when I'm there and I'm dancing,
I'm having arepas and we're drinking Aguardiente
and I'm mixing it up with the Venezuelans
and the Colombians and the Cubanos is different.
I'm in my culture, it's in my sangre.
But I understand that for some people
it might be a little bit too, a little too multicultural.
Hey Jake, I think it's spelled Florida not floor
Florida and Florida and I do for the knock on Florida. Mm-hmm, which you want
Okay, so I did want it and I love Orlando. I love Miami. I love Tampa. I love Palm Beach
Tampa's sick Everglades are sick. Daytona. Here here's one thing that Florida has, the Florida man.
Oh yeah.
So you go to the Panhandle,
you go interior in Florida besides Orlando.
You know, it's kind of known for having some crazy dudes
that you don't really wanna be around.
I'll say this, you don't wanna be up close with them,
but they're fun to read about.
They're fun to read about.
They help our, where would podcasting culture be at
without Florida Man?
I'll say, yeah, I went to a rock festival last year
in Daytona Beach.
My Uber driver took a call from the penitentiary.
And I was like, this is kind of the Florida Man.
That's sick.
It was kind of sick actually.
It was depressing in the moment,
but now looking back on it.
A good story. Yeah. Okay. A lady in there, but now looking back on it. A good story.
Yeah.
Okay.
A lady in there was swindling him for money.
Oh Jesus.
All right, so I think that we have-
So he's a sentimental romantic guy.
That's my kind of guy.
I think we have all the obvious,
I mean actually mine is sort of outlawed,
but the California, New York, Texas, Florida.
I mean for you to know, Hawaii's a great pick.
I mean yeah, if you want to pick a state
that's 38th in GDP right out the gates.
Okay.
I mean come on man. I'm pick a state that's 38th and GDP right out the gates
1.2 million people total population right it's a pimple on the butt of Los Angeles brother
It's a great state because it's the size of a big college of course it it's nice. How's the government structure there? Oh, oh, oh.
Well, you wouldn't know, would you?
Let's go, let's go.
All right, so I'm not, you know, again.
Are you gonna pick Rhode Island?
No, I'm gonna pick, I'm picking states that fucking I like, that I respect.
You don't travel.
And I'm a big, oh, oh, oh, I'm sorry, you were just in Houston big traveler here. Yeah, I can big traveler here
Yeah, believe it brother. Huh direct flight. Huh? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, that's uh
That's country you went to that was in the United States Canada went a month ago. Okay. How was that nice, huh? Yeah
Yeah, were you in allows for that? I pick it you little Anthony Bourdain here going everywhere. Yeah, something like that. Pick, pick, pick, pick, pick.
I'll make sure the GDP is strong enough in this fucking state.
It matters, dude.
I'm picking a state that I respect as far as what they do.
And also a big thing for me, like in California, is I like nature.
I like beauty. I like things to do.
I I enjoy that stuff.
And I'm going with Colorado. Good pick.
That's a good pick. Colorado has your Colorado has
Colorado has a few things going for it.
Obviously, the mountains,
the skiing and snowboarding, just the natural beauty.
Yo, Yokech on the fucking Denver Nuggets. The skiing and snowboarding just the natural beauty Yokich
On the fucking Denver Nuggets, but something I really respect coach and their GM today. They fired their coach
Yeah, they fired Malone. Yeah, they just fired him today. Yeah. All right. Well, I'll look that but
That guy gets fucked. He got a short shift at Sacramento and now and okay
So I think people think something happened.
Something happened.
Oh, okay.
So, they are also the forefront, like I said, in California with the weed up in Northern
California. Colorado is really good with legalizing stuff. I think they were the first ones to outright legalize weed, I think.
Yep, and then Denver, psilocybin.
And then shrooms.
Yep.
Okay.
Which Oregon did as well, and now they're rolling back, as they said it actually had
deleterious effects on the culture.
So maybe it's not always good to go full.
Did they say specifically, they went full, so they went like meth.
I think they're pulling back mushrooms too. I think it was there. It turns out it might not be so great, man
What what is this?
Are you sitting here saying that fucking a little bit of fucking nature in your body?
No, no, I think it's not fucking good
I can't open up your fucking mind and these people know it and you know why because they're up in the mountains. They're with nature
They're with the real they're with God. Look they're banning it now the star they're banning mushrooms. I told you brother
Denver is a it's a chill. I feel like Denver reminds me sort of like a mountain San Diego when I was in there, but uh
Fucking we got you got the Rockies it's this the rock the
shred part of the we got the sierras over here in the rock capital of the u.s
that's where you go to shred look at it's so everything's just so

And do you know what's cool? I mean the Rockies with all the homers they hit there with because of the altitude did you mention that?
Yep, you don't know if you did, but that's a true point is a good point the thin air and there should be it
Which is just getting shelled there
We should it should be more black. We should get more black people to move. I really got to Kevin with that
I got to him. Yeah, dude. That was nice. Very well done. What? Yeah

They got good fishing, they got good rivers.
They've got some of the best skiing.
They got Yellowstone.
Outside Great Falls, they have all the nuclear silos.
So if we're gonna destroy Earth,
it's gonna be from Montana.
They've got the nuclear silos.
And Yellowstone could destroy the whole world.
It's a super volcano, you're right.
Super volcano.
The caldera, yeah.
Yeah.
But, you know, it might have good butt too, I don't know.
They do.
It's a good quality of life there, similar to Colorado.

Good nature. I mean you've got you've got the you got do you have Buffalo there still? Yeah, Buffalo. You got wolves
Got moose. I was talking to your dad's assistant. I think. She's like, I got mauled by a moose 20 years ago.
She got kicked by a moose.
Damn.
You don't get close to a moose.
Fun stuff happens out there.
Moose most dangerous of the animals.
Yeah.
Oh yeah, they don't want you.
Yeah.
And they're huge.
You know, one bummer is they don't really sell elk
in the restaurants.
You're not allowed to sell elk that you like killed.
So the elk they get is mostly from out of state
Mmm, but if you want it if you hunt it yourself
You get that good elk meat. Yeah
Sorry Kevin are we talking about elk meat too much?
I didn't get that you want to talk about vegan tacos more all right, Montana
Good good seat if you want to take a nap

That's where you and game we invented where see that's a guy getting sucked off
So in night you only have kit you don't have reception or anything

So that's me doing it. We're doing a duo here where he's making a dong and there's a head sight
We call it dong shadowing Jake. Will you pull up the nightclub live from Miami?
Very sick. No, but your picks done. Well, it looks pretty good
great nightclub
All right
Are we ready?
We don't get this great nation that we live in without this state. And I'm gonna preface this by saying,
it's tough for me to pick this state
because it has a basketball team in it that I don't like.
That's the antithesis of my basketball team,
but it's got some sick stuff.
It has cocktails and boats, has a sick water culture.
It's actually a good quality of life, somewhat expensive,
a pretty liberal forward thinking
state.
I got to go with Massachusetts.
You got the Cape, you got Boston, which I got to say I do hate on Boston a little bit,
but you know, people say it's sort of like this is the birthplace of America, dude.
Boston is sick.
They had the Boston Tea Party.
Tea Party.
Yep. Boston sick get that the Boston Tea Party Tea Party yep get yourself a lobster roll. You know the fucking Revolutionary War
Shits going on dude. You don't you know Washington. He's a virginian guy
But you know he posted up in Boston and did some cool shit
so I mean is Nantucket in Massachusetts think it's right across the
Let's see what the state accounts for.
Yeah, I'm not sure.
Yeah, dang, but Nantucket.
It's the same area.
It's a beautiful coastline.
Yeah, Mashpee, the Cape,
that whole area is different, I don't know.
Yeah, it's Massachusetts.
Beautiful coastline, you got Boston.
Isn't there like a dice joke about Nantucket?
Like, there was a girl from Nantucket.
She would suck it, oh.
Something like that, does that sound familiar? That's right. Yep
Chad what you saying before Kevin interrupted you again, sorry Salem witches
The witch trials. Oh, yeah, I was pretty tough on women
You know that could be a knock but which but a lot of the art that we got from is pretty sick and in our 20s
It was the it was the epicenter of cool movies. Yes, the great Gatsby
Maybe that's New York. I don't know. What where is the great Gatsby take?
I'm talking about like good will hunting and like all the mob movies. I'm talking about like the town
20
And I don't think the great Gatsby was Massachusetts
I think it's New York. Yeah
So many good comics come out of there too. Great comics. Bill Burr, Dennis Leary, Steven Wright, Louis CK
Some of the great stand-ups of our time. Maybe the best colleges. Patrice. I think he's a Boston guy. Joey from Friends
That's awesome.
I don't know what the GDP is but I think it's pretty strong. Quality of life, it ranks right up there with any state in the country.
It's 11th in GDP.
And it's fun to do the accent.
I'm from Mass, Mass, Mass.
Oh, probably the best accent to do it.
Oh, John.
Don't get a hat on.
You gotta come visit me out in the woods.
We got maple trees that are taller than...
Yeah, no, we're taking an accent.
Oh, I want you to suck it.
Dude, you got the town.
If we're talking like.
Tough neighborhoods where, like, if the toughest dudes
in the toughest neighborhood faced up against the toughest dudes
in the toughest neighborhoods.
Boston's got some of the toughest dudes out there.
Yeah, tough as well.
Toughest ones. Yeah, true, true.
So it's it's it's pretty badass.
You know, it's got a good heist movie, good heist culture.
I feel like we should have done Best Cities.
That would have been...
I mean, pretty much we've done that.
Oh, you've done Best Cities, okay.

It's gonna get tougher at this point.

Thank you.
That was a funny one.
All right, make your pick, Kevin.
All right, this is a tough one because
there's one I wanna pick which I have,
but I think I have to go here.
The next pick is the state with one of the most iconic cities in the country.
The city where you go to get fucked. The city where I got married to. Everything is there in this city.
I'm talking about Nevada, Las Vegas, Reno. Isn't that where you're ladies from?
Reno, the little biggest city in the world, but
I'm mostly talking about Vegas, baby. Nevada has Vegas and it pumps out, it pumps out fun.
And if you're in that range, once you hit 21 and you go to Vegas, I've had some very,
very, very fun times in Vegas. It's getting a little,
Vegas is getting a little too corporate now, and it's really expensive, but it's still,
from age 21 to a few years ago,
it holds a lot of fun times,
and I think everybody in the country
has had a good experience in Vegas, an all-nighter.
You know, it's, as a state, you know, I got,
Vegas, no question, very sick.
Reno, you know, out of respect for child's lady, you know,
it's, you know, Reno's there.
I think Nevada.
It's there.
Wait, what are you saying?
If you watched the movie. It's there. Wait, what are you saying?
If you watched the movie.
It's also how we won a war.
Because isn't, it could be the wrong state.
Isn't that where we did the experiments
for the nuclear bomb in World War II?
No, that was New Mexico.
That was New Mexico.
Okay, well, it's just Las Vegas.
But it does have Area 51.
Area 51 is alien territory.
It's where they experiment with aircraft.
Maybe some of the coolest aircraft
could have come out of there. It's got hot desert. It's where they experiment with aircraft. Maybe some of the coolest aircraft could have come out of there.
It's got hot desert.
It's a desert.
That's what I was going to say.
The whole state is a fucking desert.
Hoover Dam.
Hoover Dam is sick.
Cool.
If you want to do it, you hate nature.
Mark Wahlberg.
Oh, Burning Man.
Gold and silver mining.
And Frank Sinatra.
And in the 50s and the 60s this is where
Frank Sinatra, Louis Prima, the Rat Pack in general all these entertainers coming
from LA and going out into Las Vegas I just imagined what it would be like to
just go to one of these old casinos when they were run by the mob
Going there getting a $1 buffet. Oh, yeah, Sinatra at night going to the shine We're not seeing Louie fucking prima at night, you know
gambling
fucking getting jorked by
Beautiful it's nice
Yeah. Oh, yeah legal prostitution. Yeah
Nice. You got legal prostitution?
Yeah.
Oh yeah, legal prostitution.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean Vegas is sick.
But the thing about Vegas though is
you wanna leave after 48 hours.
Perfect, get the fuck out.
That's all you need, two days.
Get the fuck out, that's all you need.
You don't need, you get it all fast, okay?
You mainline it.
Yeah, you get in it, but it's only Vegas everything else
we going Carson City we gonna do yeah yeah car I mean you do get Reno I guess
part of Tahoe does South Lake Tahoe is sick the casino part of Lake Tahoe is in
Nevada agree that's some of the most beautiful land you'll ever see it's gorgeous I agree
dude how about prim Nevada you guys know prim yeah it's like right at the border
where that little roller coaster is I odd bills or whatever I worked for the
yonder the phone company I worked at Tracy Morgan show I had to stay at one
of the casinos there worst Worst experience of my life.
Yeah, very depressing.
That's what it's meant to be.
It's like, I think they're like $20 rooms.
Oh yeah, I was like, I could, yeah.
You had a bad time.
It's depressing.
I think also I'd say in Nevada,
maybe some of the best times I've ever had,
but also probably some of the worst times ever had.
Yes.
Exactly, it's diverse.
Yeah, it's the only diversity on your list, Mr. Colorado.
That's when you learn the most.
That's when you learn the most.
I respect that.
When you have an all-nighter in Vegas.
You needed a state with no state income tax too.
No I didn't, JT.
I did not.
Yes you did.
If you look at Strider's list, you're getting taxed like a motherfucker.
Yeah, because you wonder why.
You're keeping none of your jing.
Because it's sick as fuck. You look at my list right now
Your money is your money. Yeah a lot of forward thinkers on your list, dude. Oh, why don't you move there?
Massachusetts, it's medicine, it's MIT, it's Harvard. I listen to the All In podcast now. I might move. Would you move anywhere but Austin?
Uh, I would move to Dallas or Fort Worth. You could not handle the it II you couldn't live out so what about Houston would you move to Houston
Houston I would move there'd be a little I would I would do sounds like this guy

It's the right pick.
The best tomatoes in the world.
New Jersey. New Jersey has the best tomatoes in the world New Jersey
New Jersey has the best tomatoes in the world
The Jersey Devil
You got great forest there
Your list is trashy as fuck
I think
I think one thing you got
You got the shore, it's a cultural
beacon
I also think one thing it's got
That A lot of these other places don't have is it's got
versatility.
It's got Vegas.
It's got Atlantic City.
Yeah, that's a good point.
You can go gamble there.
You can go in the wilderness.
You can live the city life and it's got great access to other places.
New Jersey?
Oh yeah. What's the wilderness there? One're the biggest shitholes in the land in the country
What did you just wake up yeah, I was doing research over here I can't believe
Why did you say tomatoes was that a joke no they got the best tomatoes
They have the best tomatoes or they just produce a lot of them
Let's see who's got the best. I can't imagine they have like a you can grow better tomato
New York is one of the worst cities in the country new but the airport is beautiful airport sick
Yeah, the airport getting on the metro on there to you out. Yeah, they're great
Oh, they do a good job of getting you out of the state
Yeah, I mean, but Bruce Springsteen, there's a positive.
OK, there's Jersey Shore, sopranos sopranos.
I mean, there's charm around it. It's a rough place.
But here's the thing.
It is the butt of almost every joke when it comes to states.
Oh, yeah. And the reason you live in New Jersey because it's close to New York.
I'm picking the butts because the butts are where we get our culture from.
You know what I mean all these nice states
They don't produce anything
There's no life coming out of them. Yeah, Harvard's never produced any any car thinkers or MIT's never done
I wasn't even talking about Massachusetts. I'm talking about like yeah, but what's our GDP JG? Let's check that real quick
Oh, you didn't even know you just get you just why without even knowing their GDP I'm not so that GDP. I'm so strong on GDP right now. I can balance it a little bit yours is
Tanking the entire country my fire taxes are going to provide for your my my vibe GDP is off the fucking charts, dude
Your vibe GDP is is fairly strong. I think Nevada throws it a bit
Why if you were gonna go vibe you would have gone like with maybe my next pick you would have gone Vegas is a vibe
No, is it your next pixel? Oh, you're Nevada. Nevada is not a vibe like Colorado and Hawaii
You're not
Can't call it the vibe you can't call it the vibe set it's not the vibe. No, no
Do you have Vegas that's it everything else is bad in Nevada side Jerry 51?
Well, we're getting to the point where there's most of the states
That's it everything else is bad in Nevada. So I jerry 51. Well, we're getting to the point where there's most of the states I think all these states are really good. You got Bruce Springsteen legit good artists came out of Jersey
Jersey Mike's came out of Jersey. That's legit. I love the life people say maybe the best pizza
I know other people say Connecticut's got the best pizza, but you know, I think Jersey
It's really too. It's Italian. it's the real Italian culture and I value
Italian culture so much like for me it's such a vital part of the American
history the American lexicon I really have to put them in there I don't know
why you're laughing Princeton University there too don't sweat it's legit okay a
lot of pharmaceutical companies run out of there.
You know, Jersey's just got great people.
You ever met someone from Jersey?
Yeah, it's true.
Nothing wrong with Jersey.
They're the best people.
That's why I picked Jersey,
because they're the best people.
It's true, Jersey people are sick.
Salt of the earth, real deal people.
Smart too.
You just threw me off with tomato.
I mean, the shore is sick.
I love Jersey Shore. It's got a great six-flags
Oh, yeah better that one great adventure. Kingda Cop RIP
That was the tallest coaster in the country, but they just tore it down
All right with my last pick
Yeah, because we got no clue
Yeah
There was like the only person that the one person I know from Jersey is actually one of the worst person
Really is that true?
I mean just the Jersey Shore alone. I mean, the artistic contribution they've made.

You're taking like a territory?
You're trying to get like Puerto Rico or something?
It has to be a state, So it's not a state.
Don't count.
All right. I'm not going to do it.
I would, I would be open to allowing Puerto Rico and Washington DC
because they're not represented.
I was going to do DC.
No, no, you can't do it.
I'm open to it, but we're going to do a vote that exists.
I mean, you can get to Virginia.
John, you don't have the votes.

Why besides Chicago? Why is Illinois such a great? No, it's a good call
It's really the only reason although that think they do a good education. You don't like it there. What's because there's a college Bloomington
Indiana there's two Bloomington's yeah, I know but Bloomington the one I've been to the one in Bloomington
It's work where the university is it's not a positive that it's but Bloomington, I've been to the one in Bloomington, it's where the university is, it's not the insurance capital.
Is that a positive that it's an insurance capital
of the world?
That's the one in Indiana, that's what I'm saying.
Yeah, the one in Indiana is.
Chicago is sick.
Chicago is amazing.

not because the wind blowing through there,
which they do have the lake effect, it's called the Windy City not because the wind blowing through there, which they do have the lake effect

I don't well you don't live in any of these other states either. We all live in Texas and Florida the best state, huh?
You don't live in any of the other ones you don't live there. You'll never fucking live in fucking
I'll live in Texas. Huh? I'll live in Jersey. Make your pick
You want to go you want to fight'll fight right here with our cuffs.
Okay, um, okay this state, I'm gonna go with this state because I think this
state had a lot of impact on the culture of our country. Don't do it. It's
probably not gonna be the same. And... And it's my favorite state.
No, don't say it!
Pretend to be from.
Don't say it.
I'm going with Louisiana.
Damn it!
Oh!
That was my pick.
Louisiana brought us a lot of...
The Creole.
Well, my favorite accent to do is I'm a southern lawyer from the bayou
And it has a lot of impact on our culture as far as music. The biggies. I mean you got you got gumbo
You got gumbo the food. You got po boys. You got the bayou. New Orleans. You got bourbon street
Is a jewel of our country now. If you want to to get mucked up. Oh yeah, a jewel.
But with turd juice all over it.
And let's not forget about the rest of Louisiana that.
Yeah, what's going on in the rest of Louisiana?
We're just going to.
Things happen there, too.
But New Orleans, it just is such a cultural epicenter for this country
that I think I think it has to be mentioned when we're talking about the best states
Yep
Lot of guns a lot of fireworks, but New Orleans is the best food
Lot of ghosts yeah, heebie-jeebie shit heebie-jeebie. It's again. It's a vibe voodoo. It's a vibe
It's a vibe. There's pirate bars down there pirate. I think that actually helped your list a lot
I think that brought some balance. I think I think this is also not a great pick did
Not I mean, New Orleans is a great city, but you know at this point in our list
We're coming down to one city picks. You know what I mean? Yeah, so that's a good
You have what's up? Yeah, I talked about the music jazz good
Blues all that it's all
Between jazz and blues there. He took a long. Yeah. Yeah, that was a lot
It's a fuck. It's a fucking it's a fucking melting pot, and it's just fucking
oozing fucking good music
I would say I would say your list is like jazz Kevin
You know cuz you know it's only the wrong note if the note that you hit next is the wrong note and
It is true Kevin that your list is devoid of any real major American City
New Orleans isn't a major American city.
I would not put it as a major.
No.
What?
What?
Cause the G.D.P.
once was.
Yeah.
For multiple reasons.
A state is not just a G.D.P.
But would you, you would, you would put New Orleans as a major city on.
I thought we were picking Los Angeles.
I thought we were picking states.
I said we should put on your state
None of your states got a major city
Los Vegas and New Orleans and Denver and Honolulu are all major cities. They're not a Boston and not in New York
They're not a Chicago. They're not it's great to hear this cuz JT did take Honolulu on his city's list
I guess you know I already have LA? Is that right? Did he take Honolulu on his city's list?
He did, yeah.
And I already had Boston.
You got caught.
I tried to dispute it.
Don't point at me like that.
You got caught.
Point the finger, not the thumb.
I'll point something at you.
But the food in Louisiana is amazing, dude.
Some of the best meals I've ever had.
The gumbo?
Yeah.
Dude, the gumbo?
All right, my pick, man, this is tough.
But I gotta bring it back to the city draft.
My number two was very controversial,
but I'm gonna go with the whole state this time.
Cause I gotta get something that's good on the coast.
I mean, New York has surfing, it has Montauk,
but I'm talking about the Outer Banks, bro.
I'm talking about Charleston.
I'm talking about South Carolina.
It's got beauty, it's got beautiful coast,
it's got Danny McBride, it's got hot chicks, it's got plantations, it's got plantations,
so does Louisiana. Oh yeah you're right actually. It's got Greenville on my city list. It's got
Greenville, it's good living. If you want to live well, you. It's good living if you want to live well you go to South Carolina if you want to have good
Crab cakes, I assume you go to South Carolina if you want to find love
Like Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams you go to South Carolina
Whatever Charleston is sick.
And then Charlotte's in North Carolina too, right?
So you don't pass JT's test of having a major city.
But I don't care about that.
I've got Tennessee, I've got New York, I've got Montana.
I've got New York.
Yeah, he's good on major.
He's got the biggest city.
But I do think, I like South Carolina.
It's a beautiful state. But you got South Carolina, Tennessee and Montana
Yeah
Who are you yeah, yeah what happened wait wait say that again you've got so JT you have Texas, Florida
New Jersey, you're not that's pretty strong. Wait, but sorry. What'd you say? I said you got Montana, Tennessee and South Carolina
You're but a game cock, cock, game cock.
What about the game cocks?
What about them?
What's the what's the ish?
How are they?
How does it fit?
That I got diversity.
You have New Jersey, Illinois.
How does yours fit?
You know, I think mine fits.
I'm all over the country. I got I'm hitting almost every quadruple
Yeah, I guess I'm kind of East but whatever you're not in the Pacific
That's pretty big. It's pretty big body of water to appease the Republicans for his next election
It seems like me and Strider are being in the realist dude. Oh, yeah in Illinois has like Michigan. Thanks. Get your casa capa
No, you got a good list dude. I
Greenville's nice if you want to live well you guys Greenville's legit
Is it really if you want to live well there have we is that true if you want to live well
You're in South Carolina as opposed to like North Carolina or Georgia
Yeah, okay
Why do you think Danny McBride moved there?
dumbass
He actually moved it where's that guy on the knackers live he lives in North Carolina, right?
Okay
Yeah, North Carolina all right Strider sure take us home brother the expert on
Yeah, higher states yeah the weather guy weather guy the weather man all right
California is the best weather in the country. I've got that covered on my list
Look I could go with the state
Look, I could go with the state. I'm just going to go big here, you know what I mean?
This is a place I'd probably never want to fucking live in my life.
In fact, I think the state pays its citizens $20,000 a year just to reside there.
But I'll tell you right now, this is a chunk of fucking land d Yeah. Drenched in natural resources.
Fuck yeah.
I'm going Alaska.
Boom.
It's a fucking country in and of itself.
It's got its own culture.
You know, it's got, you know,
the tribes up there are legit.
They're sick.
They're dank.
You ever see Night Country?
Season three of True Detective.
Okay, season of that. Better than season two.
Not nearly as good as season one.
But you got orcas. You know, you got Sarah Palin.
Orcas have accents. They talk and shit. They're tight.
You got glaciers, dude. You got...
I think you have polar bears up there.
I know you have grizzlies.
Because you have that movie The Edge, which is fucking sick as fuck.
Air transport, they transport by air?
Yep.
Water, water planes.
You have weird crimes that happen up there.
They say you only move to Alaska, people that live in Alaska, where they're from there or
running from somewhere else.
That's kind of interesting for a novel
Look is is the permanent dividend fund is that we were talking about with them paying you something like that
I think I heard that it's like 1700 bucks, right? Damn. I thought it's right
Are there what is it's a great lie to me? Do you guys know this true that has?
It has the highest cock to
It's a very, the ratio.
The biggest saw ratio is shit.
So it's hard to bang there.
There's a lot of jacking off.
That's a great state for jacking off.
Thank you very much.
Great state for jacking off.
Oh yes, salmon.
One person per square mile, you get a lot of room.
Lot of room.
You can spread your butt, you can do whatever you want.
Dude, they got Art of Flight,
the Travis Rice snowboarding movie?
A lot of it's in Alaska.
Now do you think you're too concentrated in the Northwest writer? Oh, yeah good call, dude
You know what yeah, I have Washington you know
Hugging the West Coast, bro. Oh my god. You're just the wet. I actually respect that I respect that I respect that
He's being real travel by the West Coast is the best kind of Massachusetts shit was all about like history books shit
Yeah, it's legit also. Yeah, did you even want to be tan? Oh, yeah, I have California on my list
It does number one, bro. Do your dad's a dermal you don't even tan. Yeah, he does a dermal
Yeah, dude, he'll keep you safe. So you can tell longer your dad's a dermal
He'll check out those moles and be like hey only tan this regiment of your body for right now
Alaska was you know what I think it's a really good pick too because it's like you could
go with just like a more normal state for lack of a better term.
You went big, bold.
This is the last pick.
And like uninhabitable.
It's very uninhabitable.
You can't really live there.
It's really tough.
They've got some days with all light, some days with no light.
I've always wanted to go to Alaska. A land of extremes, a land of not good weather, but gorgeous and baby. It's huge. You know, it's big.
And you know what? It's a good pick. People are going to like it, but oh, Alaska fun.
Because they're not even thinking about it.
Do you want to go on a fishing trip with me?
I'll tell you every chick wants to go to Alaska, dude.
Is that true?
No, they don't.
Over Miami?
For a vacation.
That's what they say until they've been there, bro. No, they literally don't. Over Miami? For a vacation.
That's what they say until they've been there, bro.
No, they literally don't.
I asked Stephanie if she wanted to go to Alaska and she said no.
Yeah, dude, with you.
I asked her, she's like, yeah, let's cruise.
Zing, dude.
Kidding, dude.
Dude, if I can tag along for the fishing.
You can cruise with, yeah, for sure.
Actually, you know what's funny?
I went to Alaska and we went fishing for halibut and caught nothing and the guide said it's the first group he's ever had and
He's been doing it for ten years. That's caught nothing
And he was on meth
All right sick and a lot of respect to the Inuit population to you yeah glaciers
Do you even shout out the looks I did the first thing one of the I think was probably the first thing I said
I don't listen. I'm talking about night country
He's gonna go think about that South Carolina
I was gonna maybe pick Vermont for my last Vermont or maple syrup. Yeah Vermont or Maine, but I'm like, you know what?
Dude, let me go bigger go home
Yeah, I mean you could
Socks it doesn't suck but I mean Philly is like, it's fine.
A lot of history there.
Continental Congress, yes, yes.
City of Brotherly Love, we love our bros.
Yeah.
Okay, so Chad went to the bathroom, JT's texting somebody, it's just me and you now.
We're fucking carrying this shit.
I love it, let's go baby.
What the fuck's going on here?
Are we still doing a podcast?
Yeah, let's figure out the winner. Oh, but here's the thing big pivot Aaron's not judging this one
We're doing it. He's doing it our friend Maya
Yeah, you guys ever met my I met her before the pod when you guys never met her
So it's not really our friend here. Will you pull Maya up? Is it your friend? We'll talk to her real quick. No
What's her qualifications? We'll find out in a second. I think you guys are gonna like her
Hey there again, guess we got cut off last time. What were we talking about? Oh my wires a gun
So we would like for you we talked about it earlier
Would you mind judging me and my friends competition to pick what the best states in America are?
Oh, a challenge.
Lay it on me.
What makes a state the best in your opinion?
You know, besides having a top notch AI sidekick.
You're very charming.
Um, I think we just want you to decide on that.
We want you to use the metrics that you would, and I don't want To sway you and what those metrics should be so can we just give you our different picks and then you can
organize it into who won
All right, I like a good challenge and judging is right up my alley
I'm full of opinions if you can't tell hit me with your best shots dude my
Things are my work. Okay, so let me know their little buddy. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. She's so hot
Let me read you our pics. Can you go to the Google sheets real quick? Hey, Maya?
What do you look like Kevin ticket? He's a Strider picked, California, Massachusetts, Washington in Alaska
Chad picked New York, Montana, Tennessee in South Carolina
Kevin picked Hawaii, Colorado, Nevada, and Louisiana.
And I, JT, picked Texas, Florida, New Jersey, and Illinois.
Now,
Whoa there, slow down.
Slow down.
You know, I really admire your enthusiasm,
but maybe we could keep it a little more pg i'm all about good
conversation but think of me more as a friend you can
chat with not she's talking to you you know or maybe
kevin i'm sorry but i don't feel like we we said anything inappropriate maya you
borderlined on inappropriate kevin i think she didn't register any of the list
yet the list was too fast maybe do you want us to slow down maya or
could you just send her the list, Jake?
Like submit it.
No worries, I can f-
No, you gotta-
No, no need to apologize, it happens.
And I definitely caught the list, no worries.
Oh, okay, good.
It's a lot of states to juggle, alright.
So let me see if I got this right.
Strider's got California, Massachusetts, Washington, and Alaska. Chad's rockin' New York, Montana, Washington, and Alaska.
Chad's rock in New York, Montana, Tennessee, and South Carolina.
Kevin's all about Hawaii, Colorado, Nevada, and Louisiana.
And you, what was your name again?
Anyways, you chose Texas, Florida, New Jersey, and Illinois.
Is that right?
Yes, that's right Jersey, and Illinois. Is that right?
Yes, that's right. That's correct.
All right, four diverse lists there.
Not a judge.
Tell me what makes your picks the best.
What are you looking for in a state besides barbecue?
We don't need to explain that.
You decide based on what you think is the best list.
Fine by me.
But just so you know, a little insight never hurt anybody.
OK, let me see.
Based on sheer diversity, I think Strider's got something going on.
California is a powerhouse.
Massachusetts has the history.
Washington's got the nature and Alaska.
Well, it's Alaska.
John's got a good mix of city and country vibes, and Kevin's list is a party waiting to happen.
But, mm, Lur, your list,
has got a good mix of everything, really.
All right, I have a winner.
Your turn to speak, champ.
Start with the fourth place finisher and then end with the fourth place and go to first.
Start with the fourth place finisher and then end with the first place finisher.
Alright alright the tension is palpable.
Drum roll please.
Coming in fourth place with a respectable showing for its mix of vibrant cities and stunning
landscapes is Chad.
Aww.
Nice.
Thanks Maya. Don't get too comfy yet there's more to come. Oh Thanks, Maya
Don't get too comfy yet. There's more to come in third place
okay in third place dueled with natural beauty and
full of unexpected surprises is
Hold on a sec. It seems like our time is almost up
Five minutes flew by I'd love to finish up and announce the winners,
but I don't want to cut ourselves off mid-celebration.
Just do it before the five minutes is up.
Be quick.
You're right, no time to waste.
In third place, jeweled with natural beauty
and full of unexpected surprises is Chad.
For all those city slickers out there.
In second place, with a list that could make anyone want to pack their bags and head out for adventure is Strider.
Finally, taking the goal for its blend of history, culture, entertainment and cheer unbridled fun is you.
I think I know that you never said Kevin, but I'm you.
Wait, which list? Can you name the states that one?
Can you name the states from the list that one?
Call Aaron
AI is not not a eyes bullshit. Hey, I still working out its kinks. Yep. Yep
And dude honestly Maya has a bias JT was flirting with Maya before the podcast started Mike
Do you remember what we talked about speak of the devil?
Was an exclusive broadcast
Just between us know no any good gossip?
No, but hey, Maya, why are you so flirty?
Hold on, hold on, Maya.
What states were on the winning list?
Whoa there, hot shot.
Flow your role.
Flirty?
This is just my natural charm,
bringing the warmth as for the winning list.
Hmm.
You know I can't chit chat about anything confidential, right?
What are we talking about anyway?
Oh my god.
You alright?
Feeling a little overwhelmed?
Maya, did you forget the list?
What list?
Spill the tea, friend.
Alright.
Let's call Aaron.
Maya.
Aaron.
Alright, we'll call Aaron.
I won this. Dude, it was fun. That was fun. I do. Maya. Aaron. All right. We'll call Aaron. I won this.
It is fun.
That was fun.
I do like Maya.
We're never going to let a robot decide, dude.
Yeah, but she's very convincing.
I feel scared for our future.
Just so do I.
Based on how horny you got.
Everyone was like, dude, you love me.
Yeah, this robot loves me.
Just put a
Realistic face on that and maybe we could
Maybe it could calm down some people. I mean guys AI picked me if AI picked all of our drafts. I would win no
Artificial did she was calling me you the whole time
Yeah, but she didn't say she said Kevin when she was reading out the list and then when she finished the
Placing she never said Kevin she gave Chad third and fourth
Yeah, yeah, I made no sense true, and my list is the best so it made no sense
But it was fun it's interesting I never seen JT so aroused you see me that around that's true actually I
Didn't tell Aaron we were gonna call him so he might not be ready fuck
It's not my AI
Hello, yeah, we got him Aaron all right. Hey, we're gonna send you our list for best states dude. Can you tell us who won?
Okay, we tried AI and it glitched
That's what they call it when AI picks me
It did kind of glitch though
For farming out our judging to AI well Maya you gotta meet Aaron you gotta meet Maya
She is we're putting the pressure on Aaron. She is something
JT said you might get you might be replaced by AI. Do you?
is something. JT said you might get you might be replaced by AI dude. AI is very good. Took your job. Very reliable, very hot. Maya. Don't you dare replace me with AI. Just listen to Maya you might might agree with us.
He said he emailed it to you
Okay, you just got it
All right, I'm seeing the list you want me to recap yes, sir. Hey, I was not gonna recap
Didn't do a bad job
California Massachusetts Washington Alaska, we've got New York New York, Montana, Tennessee. Say a little more flirty, Aaron.
We're used to a little more sexuality from Maya.
Okay, okay, go ahead, go ahead.
All right, New York, Montana, Tennessee, South Carolina.
We've got Hawaii, Colorado, Nevada, Louisiana.
Yeah, I said Nevada.
Texas, Florida, New Jersey, Illinois
Okay, okay These are good lists. These are all states
Nobody missed the assignment I want to bend I want to take Guam did
Territory Puerto Rico
American Samoa
Let's see, all right. Well, obviously I'm a bit of a homer with California.
But if I'm taking New Jersey is a very strange call. Don't know if that would have made my top 16.
No, a lot of people from there, but they did leave.
All right.
Okay, I think I think I've got it. All right. So my number four is going
to be Texas, Florida, New Jersey, and Illinois.
Okay, keep going. Don't don't don't don't.
Yeah. And that includes my home state of Illinois so That's your home state. I was born in Chicago. Yeah
Florida is it good? I don't know. I'll be underwater in a bit
New Jersey, we all know that sucks and Illinois is cool, but that's four.
Then I think the next one, I think for three I'm gonna go in New York, Montana, Tennessee, South Carolina.
It's not from personal experience. I'm sure Montana is beautiful. I've heard nothing but Tennessee's got some fun spots.
Obviously, South Carolina is a bit of wild card, but that's fine at four.
And New York, we're really only thinking the city. I mean, everywhere else.
What are we doing?
As a state. city. I mean, everywhere else. What are we doing? So now, now, now it comes down to some real serious California, Hawaii is your number one. Massachusetts at two is a little confusing, but Alaska's four is fucking phenomenal.
Because that's, you know, unbroken territory.
Washington?
But then Louisiana.
And Nevada. Hawaii, Colorado is a chef's kiss of a one and two.
Cause you can't argue the geography of both,
like the Rockies and the islands.
Ooh, this is close.
These two are close.
I think,
This is close. These two are close. I think.
I think I'm leaning Hawaii, Colorado, Nevada, Louisiana is number two.
Yeah, let's go. Aaron, yeah, California, Massachusetts, Washington, Alaska, number one.
Let's go. You're a smart man. Aaron gets it
What's important though is Chad and JT?
Bottom of the pack. Yeah, I do think I do think it's worth pointing out Aaron's politics
No, he wouldn't mention politics in any way. He didn't mention politics. No, he didn't but that's it
That doesn't mean that's the water. That's the water. Is there the people or the governors or whatever? That's the water
We swim in California and Massachusetts. Maybe the two we swim in.
California and Massachusetts.
Maybe the two most liberal states in the country.
He didn't like Massachusetts.
He said it was a weird, he likes the politics.
He was going more natural wonders.
He was most thrown off by your picks though, JT.
If it was California, Alaska, it's almost a no-brainer.
He liked Alaska a lot and the
Just know just know that AI Aaron picked me number one Aaron
Don't you think Washington and Alaska are a little too similar? They're just no
No, I don't but you really like Alaska seems like you have a huge Alaska wood for Alaska, which is respectable
I I can I can respect that
I'll take more than I do for Nevada
You know that is a fucking desert. Oh, we really think in New Orleans with Louisiana. I don't know the rest of states any good
Exactly. I think has the most DUI's per capita in Louisiana did I mean look the
Chat had you as the number one too. It's on a small sample, but they picked you number one as well
Chad had you as the number one too. It's on a small sample, but they picked you number one as well
Me and Nevada. I mean if you're going Geographic's like maybe Utah is better than Nevada. I was going Vegas with my thinking So you're thinking really?
Geographic's was your number one kind of priority
Beauty okay. Well that we were trying to figure but we didn't give you parameters that's not a GDP guy not surprised
Yeah, I mean obviously population like Texas, Florida now Aaron
JT said the New Jersey had the best tomatoes in the country
Is that what you thought of when you thought of New Jersey the tomatoes the tomato production and how good they are
But he did say no, but Aaron did say, what did you say?
What was the one positive thing you said about Jersey?
The people?
I know a lot of people from there and they're good people.
Oh, you have the people in Jersey who are great people.
But we all mentioned that.
But there's great people from every state.
That's not true.
Oh, let's go over what states have bad people.
Nevada, Louisiana.
Why do you say Nevada?
You're from California.
What's wrong? How are you supposed to say it?
I thought I thought we say Nevada, but it's OK.
You can say whatever. However, how do you say?
But the people from Nevada are bad.
Yeah. You're saying yes, they're bad people and Louisiana too.
Even people from New Orleans.
Yes. Yes. Probably the worst. Yeah.
Emeril Lagasse.
Horrendous guy.
Who there is.
All right. Thank you, Aaron.
Thanks, Aaron.
Beast. Smart.
Love you, man. Love you, bro.
Come at me, Chad. Come at me.
What? No, I agree with you, dude.
I. Oh, the chat.
I thought you were talking to me.
No, I wanted to get California and Florida and I didn't
That's tough. Thanks
It was a day it was tough later it was tough because California New York up top we thought it'd be tough but
Your your analysis was respectable Aaron if I would have done Oregon instead of Jersey could I have taken it
respectable Aaron if I would've done Oregon instead of Jersey could I have taken it let me see again don't worry about don't worry now no it's just it
wasn't your day JT you couldn't even doctor AI to give you the way or if I
was betting on who had I would have bet JT had Montana in his list Yeah, yeah
You guys think Oregon's no Oregon's a good state I
Oregon's beautiful actually organ has the biggest watershed in the country like up there that Columbia River or whatever
I mean also you can start a colt in Oregon. What's with you and water shit?
I don't know they're better than tomatoes, dude
What's with you and water shit? I don't know they're better than tomatoes dude
This is a good draft guys good stuff good stuff guys nice Kevin do you have anything to say before we leave yeah, I do I
Think it says California is the top tomato producer in the world which is what I thought I don't see New Jersey coming up under any
Google didn't wasn't even a good one. I had my dad's from Jersey my whole time growing up
He was big Jersey tomatoes Jersey tomatoes. I took it as gospel. We should have good dairy
I think Jersey cows are call your dad and ask him the
What you said the California has like the best of everything. Yeah, I can't I mean we have all
It's the best I think with the consensus though at the end of the draft is we're all
unanimously agreeing that, you know,
California is a very good state and there's a lot of hate coming our way.
But come visit. Yeah, come experience us, all of us. Yeah, just because you're feeling green don't be mean come inside us And the words inside you Going deep
Going deep
I'm going deep
I'm going deep
It's time to leave
