Bo Allen and Nate Collins give you a long preview of the... Their show that joins the Greenlight family.
Starting point is 00:01:04 We'll have fresh Facts in the King content for you every Wednesday starting July 19th. But first today, a whole lot of fun. We talked some of the biggest stories from the last week. Michael Rubin's White Party and all the stars that attended. The Oppenheimer and Barbie movie release date plan. Bo and Nate both tell a couple football stories. Do an underrated, overrated draft, and answer a couple mailbag questions. We obviously have a ton of fun.
Starting point is 00:01:29 A little introduction to Bo and Nate, for those of you who haven't heard them before, and an introduction to Fax and the King, which hopefully you'll stick around for every Wednesday starting July 19th. We'll be back Thursday with a very special guest, current NFL player, and we might even have Chris check in from Montana. Yerk! We are on a special edition of Greenlight today. I am Dr. Fax, and I am with my co-host, the Butter King,
Starting point is 00:02:23 and we are with also... our producer of our new show that will be starting July 19th and every Wednesday with new content, the Facts in the King. We will be talking trending topics, football stories. We're also going to be hammering college football this season coming up. So we're excited. Our producer, Fosha, everyone might not be familiar with him and his voice. Are you excited for Fax in the King?
Starting point is 00:02:56 I'm amped, I'm just, couldn't be, couldn't be more thrilled. Foshae, little back info. Foshae is a recent graduate from the University of Virginia. And so he's freshly out of college. And oddly enough, Bo, the Butter King, is still in college. So let's... College. So let's talk about that and how that.
Starting point is 00:03:26 That's going for you, Beau. It's going really good. I actually had a 1030 exam scheduled for today. My first one of two for the second business analytics course. But I sent my professor a little email, said, excuse me, Andrew, I have some very important work obligations. I was hoping maybe I could take it after 5 p.m. when these work obligations are over.
Starting point is 00:03:49 He obliged. So I'll be taking that tonight. But yeah, very excited. College is going well. I got like two or three weeks left and then I'm officially a college grad like our like our boy young William Fochette. I don't mean. Welcome to throw you out there. But have you settled down?
Starting point is 00:04:05 Because at the start of these summer courses, you were being kind of annoying with the college stuff. I can't even lie. You know what? Thanks. I've not settled down at all, man. That's just me, baby. You got to learn to love it. I'm all fucking hopped up on Zen and caffeine, baby.
Starting point is 00:04:25 I'm ready to go. I apply that to podcasting, schoolwork, you know, all my other fun activities that I got going on. And that's just, you know, that's what you're going to get, baby. So is this for you to finish credits for your undergrad? Or what is this that you're undergrad? Okay. Nice. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:42 So I left with 12 credits left. I was gone for so long. I came back with 19. And so I just been banging him out over the last two years since I retired. And this is my last one. I'm going to throw a big ass grad party. You're both invited. Actually, facts, you're not invited, man.
Starting point is 00:04:56 You've been shit talking to me too much. Everyone else is invited, though. I'll crash that. Come on through. I'll crash that shit, bro. Foshael be my party planner. I think he was, like, probably ahead of the party planning committee on his frat. And actually, I might not even want to go to that party mainly because of what kind of hat are you wearing right now, bro?
Starting point is 00:05:18 Like, cool. You don't like this hat? No. This is my summer look. man it's a saucy little bucky i'm kind of pumped about it cue no sex in the champagne room bro take off that silly ass hat bro all right facts i got you i got you oh my god is this is this is this more your speed baby yo you're like you're like you know what you look like right now you look like a tic-to filter bro like honestly with that head on just a little quick podcast a little quick outfit
Starting point is 00:05:52 change. I got more hats on here, man. I could do this shit all day. We'll see. I'm kind of feeling myself in this one. What's up with the, why do you have so many hats, bro? Like, it's summer. Come on, man. It's summer. I like to get a little new hat each summer. Lack of color. It's a fun Australian
Starting point is 00:06:08 brand. Talk to your girl about it. She might be familiar. They got some great hats. Check them on. And where are you right now? I'm actually up in my cabin, northern Wisconsin. You know, I'm not going to, I'm not going to docks myself. but I'm up here in northern Wisconsin. Got a beautiful family cabin. Had a couple of my buddies from Tampa up this week, actually.
Starting point is 00:06:29 Cam Brate, Ryan Griffin, and their families, their wives, and the Griffin family has a young choiled by the name of Bo. Oh, nice. Second cutest Bo that I know, personally. So crazy. We've had a really good week. That's so crazy. I'll fill you in on something.
Starting point is 00:06:47 Believe it or not, it was already set in stone. if I was having a boy, his name was going to be Bo Collins. Like, and believe it or not, it was going to be Bo Allen Collins because Alan is my father's name. So that is... Look at that chemistry facts. It's meant to be. Come on, baby. That was the plan name for whatever reason.
Starting point is 00:07:12 My girl, she loves that name. But it was going to have the X on the end of it. A little spice. Yeah, that's swag. Yeah. I like that. And now I fucking ruin that for you, huh? Is that still the plan?
Starting point is 00:07:24 No, that's not going to be my daughter's thing. Hey, baby, we can't do that anymore. That's... Bow Derek, you know? That's a classic. True, true. Just keep it in consideration. That's all I asked.
Starting point is 00:07:36 Well, it's funny. Actually, when I first signed down in Tampa, I met Ryan Griffey. You know when you sign with the new team and, like, you're kind of feeling everybody out and you feel like you're the new kid at school. So I, like, grab my little food from the cafeteria and I'm, like, scoping out the you know, like the tables and stuff. I sit down next to Griff and introduce myself and he goes, God,
Starting point is 00:07:56 one of the first things he ever said to me, this is a good friend of mine. He goes, God damn it, man. Like, me and my sister were always racing to see who'd have a kid first so we could name it Bo. And you just fucking completely ruined it for me.
Starting point is 00:08:08 Like completely rude. And he never brought it up for like five years. And then in December, yeah, beautiful baby boy. Chows an awesome name for it, Baby Bo. So,
Starting point is 00:08:18 yeah, Don't, you know, that could still work out for you, Fax. Come on, baby. Next one, hopefully it'll be a boy, and we will definitely circle back to revisit that to see if it happens, for sure. Absolutely. I mean, also, I want to let you know, Fax, we've been playing a lot of yard games up here. Oh, I've seen that. I'm a stud. Are you?
Starting point is 00:08:42 Spikeball, can jam. We've been playing, like, giant beer pong, which is, like, you get, like, you know, like, 20. gallon like garbage can't garbage cans and like play big beer pong with like six cups a lot of yard games man that's what summer is all about i'm i'm pumped for it so you can't be you know i know you played some yard games you're kind of you know fucking dogging me out as a teammate no i just want to let you know that i was carrying this week see i understand why you don't want to invite me because you want to be you want to be like the winner like in front of your friends and all your old friends so having
Starting point is 00:09:18 someone like me around for yard games probably puts a damper in it for you because I'm much better than you in all those games you just named because Bo you're I don't watch you steal my shot I can imagine you're probably very
Starting point is 00:09:35 terrible in basketball and that beer pong that over large beer pong game sounds like it's basically basketball on the ground so it kind of is yeah but beer I mean we were playing beer dice too. We've been getting after a little bit up here.
Starting point is 00:09:51 It's fun. You'll have to come up, check it out. We'll do a retreat. Fax and the King from the cabin. I mean, you say that, but I just need the invite, man. You just got to invite me, bro. It's just a, you know, a drive and a flight and then another drive away, man. Anytime you want to come up, baby.
Starting point is 00:10:10 At the end of the day, though, Fax, the cabin's all about having good times. And happy to be doing the pot from up here. I want to introduce this awesome, awesome fucking segment we have. My boy, Dr. Fax, we notice in daily conversation, he loves wrapping things up and saying at the end of the day. So we have this kind of little bet going where if we do a pod and Fax says at the end of the day, you're going to hear a little ding like that. And that means that Fax has five. If he says less than five, we'll give you five or less. Then he gets to kind of wrap it up at the end of the day, at the end of the pod.
Starting point is 00:10:45 He can wrap it up a little, you know, a little tidbit, a little facts thought. And if he says more than five, then your boy, the Butter King gets to have the final say. So something tells me you might be hearing those dings a little bit throughout. But enough about my summer. I've talked a lot about Cabin Yard games. What you got going on? Fax. You got a little haircut recently.
Starting point is 00:11:05 You look lined up. You look good, man. Thank you. I got a haircut. And I got my locks freshly touched up, which for people, mainly white people who probably don't know about the whole dreadlock process. Hold on. Time out.
Starting point is 00:11:24 Facts. I just want to state for the record, I don't trust white barbers. Just it's about as easy as that. So I'm with you, man. I know I know a couple. I'll go to a salon. I know a couple good white barbers. If I'm getting the ends trimmed up.
Starting point is 00:11:38 Yeah, so do I. But it's not the same experience, you know, but sorry. It definitely isn't. I know what you're saying. But my hair, how long? long do you think it took for my hair to get redone, Bo, if you had to guess? I'm going to say, like, three to five hours. Oh, that's a good guess.
Starting point is 00:11:57 It took three and a half hours. Three and a half hours. And I was telling the guys yesterday that the best part of getting like dreads done, it's almost 90% chance for me. As soon as I get in that chair, the first hour, I'm definitely dozing off. And for whatever reason, it always ends up being, like, the best nap ever. And I don't know if, like, the pulling, like, like, the kind of, like, gentle, like, pulling of, like, the dreads is, like, massaging.
Starting point is 00:12:31 But it's different than, like, getting a haircut where you can't really doze off getting a haircut because the barber has to manipulate your head, like, so many different ways, like, in a short, like, time period. So you can never really get that off. But I was telling them that that nap, the first hour of getting my hair done, was absolutely amazing. And shout out to Richland. She always does an amazing job on my dreads. And I was glad that I was able to sneak in and get a spot because this lady, I think she's one of the best ladies who do dreads in this area.
Starting point is 00:13:09 And bro, she's like booked up, booked up. Like, Hey, next time I'm in Seaville, I'm getting dreaded up. I wonder. Think I could pull that look up? Mm-mm. Mm-mm. No, no.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Yeah, we'll see, man. We'll have you style my hair. I'll style your hair. We'll do like a fax in king swap. You can wear this hat. You look fucking great in it. But this is what I was wondering, fax. Is that like falling asleep when you're getting hair done?
Starting point is 00:13:37 Like, everyone likes to have their hair touch. There's nothing weird about it. But like, is that? like if you're if you're you know the barber the lady that's doing your hair is that is she kind of like oh here we go again or does she like it because you're out and you're not she doesn't have to worry about you you know i think i think she likes it like at the end of the day i i feel like it's not like i'm moving around a lot um yeah i'm not hold on a fochay we need a quick we need a faster gun on the year man yeah i got to get on the trigger as soon as he
Starting point is 00:14:09 says at like as soon as we hear that at the at the boom boom boom Boom, boom. I want it mid-sentence. Sorry. Go ahead. That's so funny. No, but I don't think it's a burden. I don't think it's a burden for hairstylists.
Starting point is 00:14:21 Not for doing dreads and what I get like basically a retwist. It's not like I'm getting them freshly done. That might be an issue. But since they're already in and it's like it's like it's already guided for what she has to do. my head really doesn't have to move too many directions throughout the whole three-hour process. So I don't think it's a, I don't think it's a burden. I feel like it's a little bit of a guilty pleasure, though, falling asleep at like, you know, the salon or the barbershop or whatever. It's like, you know, parks and rec when Ron Swanson's getting his shoe shine, they're like, lets out a little moan.
Starting point is 00:15:00 I don't know if you're a parks and wreck out, I'd be shocked fact, but Ron Swanson lets out a little moan and he's getting his shoe shine. and it's, I was wondering if it was one of those things, but I think it's a little long. Don't be shocked. I've seen Parks and Rec before, bro. I was expecting you'd be like, no, that's a white people show. No, Parks and Rec. It definitely is a white people show, but it's funny. It's a good show.
Starting point is 00:15:23 I was taking a look at, for everyone who is Greenlight fans and new listeners, the link will be in the bio for this episode. but the Greenlight crew, we combined all of our top 10 songs to make a Greenlight Mystery playlist. And you can check that playlist out on Spotify. And I have to say, Bo, I absolutely have no idea what songs you pick. I don't know your, I don't know your taste. I think one song that maybe I think could be you,
Starting point is 00:16:09 but it's probably not, is the, making my way downtown. Everyone was wondering that on Twitter. So that song, just so you know for future reference facts, it is a banger. It's Vanessa Carlton, a thousand miles. And that was not me, believe it or not. I kind of think that was Kyle.
Starting point is 00:16:33 That's my dark horse pick for that, Kyle. I can't wait to see. If it wasn't you, I think. You're right, man. It's hard. If it wasn't you, I think it was probably making. But the funny thing about that song in particular is it almost made my list, but the remix, there's like a, there's like a drill remix to that song where it starts out the same exact way.
Starting point is 00:16:56 And then they start talking about killing people. So it just turns it up. It's same themes, you know. Soon as the hook dropped. And the funny thing is about that story, Vanessa Carlton, she cleared it. After hearing it and seeing how viral it went to song, she cleared it and let them put the song out. And so, like, they make money off the song. I think it's gotten a lot, a lot of views.
Starting point is 00:17:23 It's so funny to hear that. But I feel like. Hey, how hard was it, though, to pick your top 10 songs? Like, I kind of, it took me a lot. long time because I feel like my music and my favorite song is kind of mood dependent like okay it's summer right now like I want some fucking upbeat stuff
Starting point is 00:17:41 but the classics are the classics like your favorites are the favorites but then you kind of feel like people are going to go through and scrutinize you based on your picks like I'm gonna get dogged out if I pick a thousand miles by Vanessa Carl what I'm realizing what I'm realizing about this exercise is that everyone
Starting point is 00:17:56 that was a part of this exercise cares way too fucking much what people like about like your music taste. Like, who cares? If it's top 10, like I told Kingston, at the end of the day, like, top 10, though, bro, on your, on Spotify, on all these, on all these platforms, you can literally click and see what songs you've played the most ever. And like, realistically, that's your, that, that, that should be somewhere close to your top 10. If not top five, I would think, in that, in, in, in that top 10 list, at least five of those, I, I, I would feel like,
Starting point is 00:18:33 would just be on your list, and then that takes care of the most. I don't mean to jump in here, but the problem with that, and I didn't mention this yesterday when we were talking about it, but the problem with that, you all don't put your stuff on shuffle. That's all I do, just shuffle it. And that way you don't go back through and it won't have the same. But still even on shuffle, when you hear songs you like, you don't like them. Like at the end of the day, I have a playlist that I have,
Starting point is 00:19:00 that's all my liked music. And when, just like Bo saying, I go through here and there, and then I do put it on shuffle and songs I hear again, am I in the time? I mean, like, why is this on here? This is trash. Take it off that list. I've got a playlist, too. Bo knows about it.
Starting point is 00:19:17 Dat Nunu. It's got no skips and all of these are, our favorite. So I can't. It's hard to disseminate and through it because they're all the best songs. But yeah, I think Matt and I were saying we had like a list of 50 songs, like our first run-through that we needed to pare down to 10. That is absurd. You guys, I had like 20.
Starting point is 00:19:35 You guys honestly care way, way too much. I think. I'll say this, though. The playlist slaps. I've been listening to it up here at the cabin, and it's fucking really good. But it is, dude, it is hard to pick, like, who's what. But I'll tell you this.
Starting point is 00:19:48 I know, like, I will be shocked if facts and pick, give me that nut because he is by far the horniest guy on the pod. The horniest guy in the pod. And that is a horny song. Was that your pick? I'm prepared to be shocked because I've never even heard that damn song. Shout out. Wow.
Starting point is 00:20:07 Shout out to G. Easy. We've seen him live, but I've never heard of the song, Give Me That Nut. Nice try, though, bro. Hornyest guy on the pod. Didn't pick the horniest song. But I have a couple others that I feel pretty confident about. Like, I'm, I'd put some money down that Chris picked Time by Pink Floyd and highway and highway men.
Starting point is 00:20:33 I think Kingston did ever long. Kingston strikes me as a big food fighters guy. And then I also think Macon did lose yourself. You know, as the only person with the answer key, I can say you're on to something without confirming or denying. So what I would like to ask for maybe for all people involved,
Starting point is 00:20:56 was there any artists that shockingly for you that wasn't on the list? I was a little surprised that the Grateful Dead didn't feature more. I thought the Grateful Dead would have had more. The Eagles, I was embarrassed. I didn't have an Eagles pick. It was funny. So I was playing one of these nights on there.
Starting point is 00:21:15 I was letting the playlist play the other day, and I was, like, cleaning up. And after, like, 45 minutes of the playlist, like, playing, like, in the background, I go into the living room to talk to my girl. and she, I end up asking her like, hey, look at this playlist and see if you can pick which 10 songs are mine. I was like, this is what we're doing on the podcast. And she was like, oh, she goes, I was wondering why you were listening to the songs you were listening to.
Starting point is 00:21:53 She was like listening in the other room. And I was like, what song made you think about that? She was like, the boys are back in town. she heard that song She heard that song And she was like Why is he listening To that song right now
Starting point is 00:22:09 Like cleaning up Because for whatever reason I'm a big I'm a big M&M guy When I'm cleaning up For whatever reason It gets my mojo going You're cleaning out your closet
Starting point is 00:22:19 Baby Yeah I guess so But But the decipher It was interesting to see though I would be like I would be so shocked And maybe we should get like
Starting point is 00:22:31 a bigger prize if anyone can like really guess and decipher everyone's list. There's, there's a few fans who've tried, um, already and one of them did pretty well on mine, but everyone else is he didn't have, I don't think, over five picks right. And I was just thinking about it. Like, even being around everyone, as much as we are, there's no way I can ever get anyone's list like, like remotely right at all. And, no, I, Lots of Traveler album from Chris Stapleton, too, is heavily, heavily featured, which is a great album. But it's like, how do you discern, like, which person picked which song on there? And then only one repeat, I think, the great gig in the sky by Pink Floyd.
Starting point is 00:23:14 I thought maybe there would be another, another, like, couple repeats in there. But it's like, pretty, honestly, it's a good playlist. Like, give it a listen. I'd be interested to see what everyone thinks. It's pretty fun activity. Yeah. No, it definitely was a great idea. And hopefully the playlist grows.
Starting point is 00:23:30 shout out to Matt having to hook the playlist up because now he's going to be famous on Spotify that playlist and have monthly listeners and all that so that's lit. Bro, it's hard to not reveal who picked what because you all are pretty interested and some of them are so funny like I really want to say who did it but hopefully all will be revealed soon. I can't wait. I can't wait to see. All right.
Starting point is 00:23:57 Facts, we talked a lot about the summer. Shit we've been up to. I've been, you know, I've been doing a little bit of partying this summer, which has been really fun. But I'm going to tell you about a party foma I had, which was Michael Rubin's white party. I think it's in the Hamphins, right? But, like, I was looking at a bunch of pictures. It was sad how much I was creeping on this thing.
Starting point is 00:24:15 Like, this is my question. I don't know if you saw a lot about this, but I was creeping on all these pictures. Like, obviously, everyone's wearing white. Everyone's looking really good. But, like, you get fucked up at a party like this? Because it's like a baller party, like, tons of stars are there. Stars were out. Are you?
Starting point is 00:24:29 And, like, people are at. like taking pictures with like tequila bottles and stuff. It's like, are they fucked up? You know, that's what I want to know. Because I'd be sloppy, just sweating through all my white, like, white t-shirt contest, like my linens are soaked. I'm drunk on tequila. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:24:45 That's kind of what I was wondering about that. I can't believe you being an ex-Eagles fan. You must not follow Meek Mill on social media because everyone in black Twitter right now is shitting on Meek Mill because he posted a. pitcher with the pitcher is him basically hugging a toilet and the caption is drank way too much tonight and he and he believe it or not is the reason why Michael Rubin is even like integrated into like the hip-hop world because meek milk free meek exactly that whole situation spawned a friendship and now later years
Starting point is 00:25:30 Michael Rubin steals the party of the summer, the white party of the summer from P. Diddy, and it goes up with a blast. It's definitely one of the parties that now from here on out, if you hear about it, you want to be on that list to go. Yeah. Well,
Starting point is 00:25:51 we're going to need to infiltrate that somehow. Let's figure it out. I just followed Meek Mill on Instagram. I'll slide in his DMs and see if we could top the invite for next year. But also there's some fun drama from the party too, facts. I was reading about, and this kind of leads us into shit you can talk to your girl about. Because, you know, we all are podcasts. We talk about gambling and zen and fucking board game, like yard games and shit.
Starting point is 00:26:14 But it's like sometimes you need to find some stuff to talk to your girl about. And so this is a fun one. The big rumors, rumors are swirl. They are about Tom Brady, Kim Kardashian, we're dancing. Maybe they're grinding a little bit at this white party. and now they're being, you know, labeled an item, like, are they dating it? What's going on here? Rumors are swirling.
Starting point is 00:26:34 So talk to your girl about that because what do you think about, about Tommy and Kimmy facts? That's a new power couple, man. What a rebound. I had mixed emotions about this because immediately at first I thought about it and I was like, there's no way in hell someone like Tom Brady can handle being with a chick like Kim Kardashian. And then I had to stop myself and be like, wait, wait, wait, wait. Actually, Tom had the baddest chick, like the baddest supermodel in the world, like, like, on, basically on paper. Like, and when that whole thing blew up, the tabloids were filled with that she's like a witch.
Starting point is 00:27:21 So who knows really what he had to deal with behind closed doors. but the clout demon is a different type of animal. Like, like, it's one thing that we didn't hear all these stories about. Clout demon. Like, until the end, we didn't hear all these stories about Giselle and what was going on. And we all know, obviously, behind closed doors, we, like, they kept that all under wraps. Tom dealing with someone like Kim Kay, like, her entire, there's nothing under wraps about her life. But then I stopped myself and said, wait.
Starting point is 00:27:56 Tom is not a football player anymore. He is about to break in to the media world. And what better- He is a football player, though, in his heart and his soul. No, that doesn't matter, bro. He wants to be the best at everything he does, and he's on to the next stage of his life, which is broadcasting, which is media,
Starting point is 00:28:20 which is social media, which is clout. and what better way to get Clout leading up to his first season of doing this than attaching your name to Kim Kay. Smart. This is a guy who knows. He knows branding. I will say this. Let me,
Starting point is 00:28:40 I've been waiting to get this out. Like, I'm trying so hard not to interrupt you. Fax is fucking tough for a guy like me. No chance. There is no chance. Tom Brady spent way too much time in New England where they keep everything under wraps. They focus on the main thing.
Starting point is 00:28:54 Keep the main thing. the main thing. There is no chance. Also, New Year and New Me. A close buddy of mine. New Year and New Me. Who I'm not going to mention,
Starting point is 00:29:01 he might have named his firstborn son after me. Spent a lot of time with Tom in a meeting room. And, you know, I might have shot him a little text and asked him about, you know, some little details about whether or not this had wings. He said no chance. No chance.
Starting point is 00:29:19 So we'll see. I mean, I would love for it to happen. Give me a, you know, give me a Tommy and Kimmy sex tape. I would fucking, I'd pay, I'd pay, let me, let me tell you something, bro. If you guys thought I was fucking Kim K and I was fucking Kim K, I would say no chance also.
Starting point is 00:29:41 Really? Dude, I'd be shouting that to the rooftops, baby. And that's why you wouldn't get a chance to fuck Kim K, bro. Hey, never say never, backs. Never say never. Just got approved on Raya. Kim K might be on there. T. Swift might be on there.
Starting point is 00:29:56 I'm swiping around, man. It's a scary world. So don't say no chance. You never know. Got my fingers crossed. I'm ready for some summer love. I'm so excited to announce our new sponsor, Oakley.

Starting point is 00:31:57 So I've been looking at all these videos and it's, it's crazy. I feel like how far we've come with this stuff, you know? Like it's just this big ass giant alien looking sphere in the middle of the desert that they've put so much cool stuff on. Boshay, give us a rundown of some of the, some of the displays that they've lit up on the Vegas sphere. So they've had like Sandy Cheeks' house from SpongeBob. They've put an eyeball on it. They've done a globe. They've got it as a basket.
Starting point is 00:32:24 ball right now getting ready for the G League to come to Vegas. I mean, this thing is sick to look at. You know what I'm waiting for. Them to have a bit, a big ass titty. Booby. Yeah. That's exactly where mine is. Horneest guy on the pod, Dr. Pyes.
Starting point is 00:32:43 I mean, I'm not going to lie. I went there too. It's just marketing. Like maybe show girls or one of those long, long going shows down there in Vegas, have a time frame. No, I was thinking the other thing, dude, they need to make it appropriate. Like, how do you make a giant titty
Starting point is 00:32:59 in the middle of the desert? No, you don't have to make it appropriate. That's what you do. No, breast cancer awareness, baby. Perfect. Mammogram, go get your titty. Perfect. Go get your titty check, baby.
Starting point is 00:33:13 Let's start a campaign. Giant boo. Hashtag, breast cancer awareness. Let's get, like, October comes around in Vegas. That thing needs, I want to see it. Big nipple. They probably got that on deck ready. That's funny.
Starting point is 00:33:27 It's definitely all. But yeah, the sphere, just like I was saying, before technology, the evolution of technology is at an all-time high right now. And this arena looks amazing. And I'm from New York, and I grew up going to MSG in the city. These are the same people who built the MSG in New York, which is, supposedly the most famous arena in the world, one of. Iconic.
Starting point is 00:33:57 Yeah. And to see this rollout for this arena by the same people, I just want to say, Bravo, because it's something that we've never seen before. And we all know now just with this small sample size of the rollout that they, that they have been doing, what they can do is probably like, they're probably going to blow our minds even more. because even now when you walk through New York City, they have billboards where they make you flinch
Starting point is 00:34:26 because they look like they're coming out at you and they haven't even, or at least they haven't shown or showcased maybe that aspect what they'll maybe be able to do to make things look like they're kind of projectile and off that. But like I was saying on the radio show, I just hope or I wonder stat-wise how many car accidents this fear will cause in Vegas because... Yeah, especially if they make it a giant boob.
Starting point is 00:34:55 Especially that. Everyone's gonna be breaking their neck looking at that thing. Bro, it's something... It would be a huge spike. I think us as drivers, there's already so many things that are distracting, but that sphere is probably driving-wise when you're in Vegas,
Starting point is 00:35:09 you probably can see it from very far out. And I just wonder how many fender benders or accidents or stop shorts that this will end up causing Because just think about it. Like it's something you stare at. Like when you're in time, if you ever drive through Times Square,
Starting point is 00:35:28 which is an absolute nightmare, you find yourself like looking at stuff and it's like, damn, I can't be looking at stuff right now because there's so many cars going in every direction. But with that sphere, it'll be real hard not to take a longer than a peak look. I agree. I got one more that I really, want to see on that sphere. May 4th comes around next year, I want to see a big ass death star,
Starting point is 00:35:56 you know? For May 4th, light that thing up, Star Wars, give me the Death Star, you know. Oh, how do you miss that? Like, we need that. Come on. You know, what's coming too, I can't wait for when it, when it turned into a big ass Pokemon fan. Shout out to all the Pokemon fans out there. That's just an easy layup. Have it catching like a Pikachu or a Charzard. They'll be lit. So one other thing that was crazy, there was a soccer player that decided that in the middle of the game, I guess, you know, you got to go when you got to go. And he decided that it was okay to just take a piss on the field during a game and is immediately handed a red card by the officials. I was wondering, you know, you guys are in these football games. We've seen now they've got like the porta potty kind of things on the sidelines.
Starting point is 00:36:44 But, you know, back in the day, how are you guys just ripping a piss during these games? because when you got to go, you know, you got to go. You can't red card a guy for that. Hydration is crucial. So you kind of said it. They have the blue medical tent now. Here's a little secret, a little NFL insider tip. If you see a guy who has no apparent injury and he disappears for a while and he's in the blue medical tent, he's taking a piss.
Starting point is 00:37:08 He's on a knee taking a piss in that tent. Exactly. And then the other thing, you said it, Fochie, they got the cups now. It's like this, it's a very well designed. Like, I feel like it was engineered. by NASA, like, scientists for people, like astronauts or something. They have these little piss cups that you just fit around your dick. Like, what?
Starting point is 00:37:29 You know, I need the X-L one. Yeah. And that's what you do now. It's kind of nice. But, hey, when I was a rookie, I hadn't quite yet figured out how to, like, surreptitiously take a piss on the sideline. And hydration was very important for Chip Kelly. We tested our hydration every day.
Starting point is 00:37:45 And, you know, seventh-round pick, I'm a rookie. I'm trying to be hydro. I'm not trying to be up on that board. My name in red. I'm fucking not drinking. Is this going where I think it's going? We'll see. Well, like, well, you think I pissed my pants or in name?
Starting point is 00:38:00 Because that has happened. That's happened a lot. Yeah, I'm not going to lie to you. That's not where I was going with this. I had to take a piss on the sideline so bad, so bad. And I'm a rookie. I have no idea what to do. Connor Barwin, shout out.
Starting point is 00:38:14 He's like one of those vats who just, you know, show me the ropes. He goes, this is what you do. He takes a bunch of towels. You ball them up, you put them in your pants, and you take a knee on the sideline, your boys kind of huddle around you, make a little piss wall, and that's where you piss. So, like, they're kind of showing me. It's a great learning moment for a young rookie, you know, like, all my boys just teaching me how to be an NFL bet, taking a piss with the boys around.
Starting point is 00:38:37 They're cheering me on. Bucking, we're playing the Redskins at the time, and Nick Folster was a pick, and someone goes and bodies in, like, blocking. And Jason Peters finds it. It was Chris Baker goes and fucking lights him up. And there's a fight on the field as I'm taking a piss. So the piss wall just disappeared. Everyone's running out to go, you know, like when there's a fight, especially during the game,
Starting point is 00:39:00 like everyone's got to like sprint over there to see what's happening. They just abandoned me. I'm mid-piss. I'm like, kneeling. I'm like, do I get up? Like, do I go? So I'm trying to cut this piss off so I can sprint into the melee, into the scrum. And like by the time I get all that done, like it had all dissipated.
Starting point is 00:39:15 Well, it turns out a lot of these dudes got fined for like leaving the bench. period during the game. You know what I'm talking about facts? I go over all the fines. That was like a, this piss saved me. It saved me like eight grand. Wait, I have to back up a little bit with this story.
Starting point is 00:39:29 So you're pissing in towels that are in your pants. Yeah. Yeah. You're gross. You're gross, bro. You got to do what you got to do, man. It was like a panic piss moment. What else I do?
Starting point is 00:39:44 You know, I just, Offenses on the field. It just seems a little. I don't know what to do, man. It just seems a little. weird that you ask for a wall. Like, what do you need a wall for if you're like if your dick isn't out? Like, like, what do you, what are you hiding?
Starting point is 00:39:58 You're just pissing it to a cow. That's, hey, that's the way Connor, that's the way Connor taught me, man. And then I remember seeing a couple years later, CB, Connor Barron was with the Giants and got snipe taking a piss on the sideline. It's a hilarious, hilarious image. We give him shit a whole time. What's worse? What about the marathon runner that peeled off into someone's front yard to take, to take a shit, bro.
Starting point is 00:40:21 Like, imagine, imagine how, when you're running a marathon, your body's shutting down. Yo, but imagine exactly. Imagine how that feels. Like, just like,
Starting point is 00:40:30 God damn, I have to just go right now. And I'm, and I'm 12 miles into a marathon. And I just have to peel off. And someone's ring camera catches me, just pulling down my pants, taking a shit real quick.
Starting point is 00:40:47 No wipe. this back into the race, like nothing happened. Back into it, 14 more miles. Like, after your most shameful moment, and you know that's coming back to you. Like, you know you're not getting away with that. No way. And I feel like the only thing that makes that better
Starting point is 00:41:02 is if somehow and some possibility you end up winning, but that person didn't win. That, like, that person didn't win. That, that sucks. They probably ran a lot better after that, though. At times, drastically, drastically but that soccer player the circle back that soccer player was tripping
Starting point is 00:41:22 like you can't just like this whip your dick out like on the field and piss if anything facts i never thought i'd hear you say circle back i love that corporate facts in the building but look but look if anything you just got a piss on yourself and for getting a red card it's just like dang for all that
Starting point is 00:41:41 you could have just waited and got your red card and go take a piss in the locker room I support it. You got to do it. You can't red card a man for that. Come on now. You definitely got a red card, bro. What a piss.
Starting point is 00:41:55 There's, bro, there's kids at soccer games, bro. You can't do that. I'm surprised. I wouldn't be wondered if he doesn't get some charges brought up on him. Hopefully he doesn't, but I just think that's crazy. That's crazy to do that in the game. Well, it feels like you've got to take the time to play in your piss. You know, like if you got to go, you go at halftime.
Starting point is 00:42:15 How bad do you really have to go if you're that engaged in the game? Yeah. Maybe you. Or like you wait until you score a goal. You know, that's your celebration. You just whip it out and start pissing. Well, if you're thinking about planning pisses, you're definitely going to have to on the 21st.
Starting point is 00:42:31 When Barbie and Oppenheimer are coming out, you've got like four and a half, five hours of movies in possibly two of the biggest, you know, counterintuitive films to be released on the same. Let me ask you guys this. Oh. Let me ask you guys this because you guys are white. why are white people obsessed with the oddest, like, darkest shit?
Starting point is 00:42:55 Like, honestly, this is a story about the fucking atomic bomb. And you know what's going to happen, what it does is people are just going to be like, yeah, we need to use this on that country. We need to use that shit again. That's what we need to use to get rid of this person. That's what we need to use this. It's just never ending. but but everyone loves that shit like and why like why do you think it is like look at you guys
Starting point is 00:43:20 you guys are both fucking have shit eating grins on your face right now when I'm saying this and it's just like what's exciting my shit eating grin comes from the fact when I love what you call out white people like that first of all I'm excited about this movie because I love Chris for Nolan all right the IMAX film is 11 miles long look at that commitment to detail imagine the sound you're watching this, the sound of the atomic bomb exploding at IMAX? Come on, man. How does that not get your dick hard? But no, this is going to be a great movie.
Starting point is 00:43:53 I love Chris for Nolan. Think about some of the movies he's done, man. And this is only R-rated one because it is very dark. It's a dark subject. And then if you look into, like, I did a deep rabbit hole, deep dive of Oppenheimer as a man. He's a pretty interesting guy. Yeah. You know, he had some very interesting, like, political views.
Starting point is 00:44:13 I don't know if our resident historian Matthew Kingston would like to chime in, but I'm very curious to see how Chris for Nolan explores the man behind the bomb. You know, I think it's going to be a great, it's going to be a good movie. I'm pumped about it. Yeah, I'll be catching that one before I watch Barbie, I'm pretty sure. Before? Yeah. How about this?
Starting point is 00:44:33 I was thinking about this scenario. What if I took some boomers and went to go see Oppenheimer? how would that go you think you think that like could take a real dark twist man like i mean if you want to go all in if you want to go all in why not do that and go see go see it in iMacs it'll probably be intense right yeah yeah oh yeah i'm in man i'll join you but you're gonna have to hold my hand during the movie because i'm gonna have a panic attack for sure for sure my palms are going to be so wetting but then i mean but then Barbie too like it's it's It's two movies that are so juxtposed against each other.
Starting point is 00:45:13 Like Barbie is like all bright colors. It's been fun to see like, I feel like Barbie's publicity team is fucking killing it. They have like a Malibu Dreamhouse. I'm seeing all these different products come out from Barbie. Like they're really hyping it up, you know? Like, where's Oppenheimer's publicity team? Like, let me get a bomb house.
Starting point is 00:45:32 Like they got to keep up, man. I'm sure they're going to sell little, little bomb toys some way somehow. But the Barbie phenomenon is crazy just to see how long Barbie's been around. I'm a huge thrifting guy and eBay reselling guy. And original Barbies, they have high, high, high resale value, believe it or not. And I think the movie, I think honestly the movie, it's hard to say if it's going to do better than this, this Oppenheimer movie? Here's my question for you, Fax.
Starting point is 00:46:15 You know, I said earlier I'm on Raya. I'm going to match with Kim K. Or maybe T. Swift. Those are the two that I'm kind of honing in on right now. And then I'm going to take them on a date to these movies. Which one? Which is the better date movie? Because I think you'd instinctively say Barbie
Starting point is 00:46:30 because it's fun. It's lighthearted. No, you got to get that. But take him to Oppenheimer and be like, hey, baby, our time's limited. We don't know when this bomb is going off. But also. Like, let's go back home and split this Adam ourselves.
Starting point is 00:46:41 No, it's a long movie, and you have to hope that she's afraid, so she's, like, she's, like, leaning towards you. Or, even worse, she's, like, really intrigued by it, and she's just, like, throwing popcorn in her mouth, and she thinks it's the greatest thing. And then you leave the movie, like, yo, this bitch is sick. Like, she's a, she's a sick. Because what if that happened? What if, what if, like, the, the dark parts of the movie, she's just like, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, what do you do that? Oh, I'm loving that.
Starting point is 00:47:17 That's what I'm going for, man. That's what I need. You guys are sick, you know? But the Barbie movie, the Barbie movie might, I think it probably will, is going to pull, pull away from, from this movie in sales. I think because you can't bring kids to see the Oppenheiser So there's gonna be a lot of kids with their parents I think watching this movie
Starting point is 00:47:45 We will see I'm gonna be seeing both back to back Let's go baby This podcast is brought to you by Cash App The Ideal App for Spending, Sending and Setting Easy to Track Savings Goals Personally, I love using Cash App savings tools Whenever I'm planning a family vacation

We're going to be doing what we've been doing all fall. Every Thursday of 430 on amp, check us out. We've got another segment ready for us to dive into here. A little overrated, underrated. So we've got a couple different topics,
Starting point is 00:49:36 and you guys can share what your overrated version is and what your underrated version is. So we can get right to it. We'll go underrated first. First topic is medieval weapons. All right. Before we get into this, you guys remember, like, in the,
Starting point is 00:49:55 I don't know, maybe this was just, like, me and my, like, elementary school, but there was the sickest book about medieval weapons. It was called, like, it was just called, like, weapons. I feel like we can find a graphic of this.
Starting point is 00:50:07 Does anybody know what I'm talking about? I do. It's just, of course. You know what I'm talking about, Matt? Like, this mailbag topic just completely brought me back to that. Just paging it through this book as like an elementary schooler. Like, we got to find that book, man. Because like that, I just had an absolute nostalgia blast from that.
Starting point is 00:50:24 One of my favorite pastimes was going to medieval times, yo. Medieval times is a lot of places. And for listeners, maybe outside the country, it's like a role play theater show. Like, you eat and it's dinner in a show. and you're like you're sit in a section where you're you're cheering for your color night and medieval times yeah medieval times and it's i just remember going to that my first time and it being so much fun so much fun but when i seen this segment i was so excited because the one time i was there, I was mad as hell at my knight's choice of weapon.
Starting point is 00:51:10 And I was just like, so like, if we're going to start off, I'm going to go for overrated, I'm going to go ball and chain, bro. The ball and chain is trash, bro. It's trash because it takes, it takes momentum and like rhythm for one to kind of get that thing going, is going to do the most damage. And you have to be precise. And I feel like for what you have to do, you have to get in too close unless you're just going to throw it
Starting point is 00:51:44 and hope you're going to hit and kill this person. Like you have to get too close to do damage. And it's, and it's, I feel like it's too up in the air. It's too much up in the air. It's not, it's not, that could not disagree more. No. Could not just, though.
Starting point is 00:52:01 And I'll tell you why, the ball and chain, bro, Lord of the Rings, the witch king of Angmar? Are you kidding me? Have you seen his fucking weapon? It's so sick. He just bashes Theoden off his horse. Like it's nothing. But I kind of had actually for underrated,
Starting point is 00:52:18 I don't know if this falls in the same category or not. I was thinking mace. They had spray back in the day. Imagine just bashing somebody's skull in. Like this dude comes out and all his fancy armor. I can. Night. You're like, oh, okay, buddy.
Starting point is 00:52:29 And you hold up a fucking giant stick. Big ass dudes like us with a huge, just spiked ball in the end. And you just smoke and dent the fuck out of his, like, you know, his fancy little helmet. He can't see shit. He's flailing around. You just bash him with your maze, dude. See, well, I can think we're all, like, all of these, a lot of these weapons are very similar. Because what you're saying is my underrated, which is a morning star, which is very similar.
Starting point is 00:53:01 which is very similar to that because it's basically like... So that's kind of what I was actually doing. See, exactly. It's basically like a bat that at the end of it, like that morning star, it's a whole lot of damage done with that. And it's something that I can bash you in your head and quickly take it out to hit someone else like again. With the ball and chain, you have to get momentum again.
Starting point is 00:53:30 and I think it's too much if you're in a battle and there's more than just you going one-on-one, which a lot of medieval battles, there weren't a lot of one-on-one fights going on back then. It's my crew versus your crew. So it's going to be a lot of, a lot of, and if you're in a short space, like you might not be able to get the momentum
Starting point is 00:53:50 with swinging something like that to really hurt them. You know what I mean? Here's my overrider. Bow and arrow. Pussy weapon, man. Come and find me on the battlefield. You're just going to go take pot shots at me from, you know, 50 yards away.
Starting point is 00:54:10 No. Boom. Nah, bro. Pussy weapon. Bow and arrow overrated. Come find me. I got a big-ass. I'll be out there.
Starting point is 00:54:18 You know where to come and get this. Everyone's not gifted with size like me and you. So I respect. If you can be a nice archer and you can take people down from afar or slow them down before they get to you, I think that's fire. I think that is. Yeah, as the guy that didn't play in the NFL, I'm 100% going underrated bow and arrow for sure.
Starting point is 00:54:43 You know what my risk of life is with a bow and arrow? Let me tell you, it's low from up on top of the castle, and I'm collecting bodies from the tower. I'll respect that, fosh, if you can shoot from horsebacks, you know, like a Mongolian raider. If not, no, I got a little slit up. here and then I'm decked out in armor the fucking mace. You know, these are just to be clanking off me, man, with your little, your little flint arrows.
Starting point is 00:55:09 Not like me, dude. I'm Legalus. I'm putting it in between the cracks of your armor. You're done for. You have no shot. Right through the eyeball. All right. We'll do some facts in the king, Larping.
Starting point is 00:55:20 And we'll, uh, well, like that movie role models, we're going to be out there. Dude. Just beating the shit out of each other with maces and morning stars. You know, across the street from. from the hotel that we stayed in Chicago. It's the Hilton on Magnificent Mile in Chicago, downtown Chicago, like a block away from the stadium. Bro, they hold the biggest larping, like, event.
Starting point is 00:55:49 And one day, like, all these fields in front of the hotel and outside of the stadium, they had, like, one of the biggest larping events. And, bro, when I tell you, I didn't understand and know what Larpon. was at first and seeing that shit in real life is absolutely comedy, bro. It's comedy. But the way the people take that seriously, I don't think they would allow someone like me
Starting point is 00:56:17 to join or be a part of any league like that. The battle. Because you'd be fucking around too much. Bro, I would be fucking around so much. But also, too, I don't know if it's part of it to move slow. I'm not moving slow and I'm slapping the shit out of people with those foam weapons. Like, I'm going all in. If I'm going to do it, I'm going to do it.
Starting point is 00:56:44 So my overrated then, if my underrated is the crossbow, excuse me, the bow and arrow, my overrated is the crossbow. It's just a bow and arrow, but like 20 times slower. I'm launching off like three or four arrows by the time that you're able to cock. that thing back get another one in aim it down it's just not efficient and more stopping power though exactly come on read the weapons book man you can punch right through steel armor with those crossbow balls because like he's saying fucking casual unless you're a marksman what what happens when you got to try to shoot a guy's horse like one arrow is not going to take down a horse bro you need that crossbow with that bigger that bigger um like spear or that bigger arrow in it yeah shaft yeah to take to
Starting point is 00:57:30 get right through the target. Big thick shaft to punch right through. Yo, boss. All right. So our next topic for overrated, underrated is summer activities. Oh, this is easy for me.
Starting point is 00:57:46 I'm going to make, I'm going to make some enemies with this one. You ready, Fax? Oh, don't say what I think you're about to say. Go ahead. Do you already know where I'm going?
Starting point is 00:57:54 Overrated River Float. Yeah. Overrated River Float. You're a hater. You're a, A hater. My boy Kyle Long went on a little Twitter tirade the other day and got all y'all's panties in a bunch. And I agreed with every single.
Starting point is 00:58:07 I was lurking from afar agreeing with every single tweet he said. But you really don't. River floats are overrated. You really don't. Bro, you know river floats are overrated when you got to go to such great lengths as to have a farmer grow a massive pumpkin to float down the river in it. Just have fun. You're a hater, bro. Overrated.
Starting point is 00:58:23 You're literally sitting at a lake house right now. Did you not say that? Lake. let me get to my underrated. It's water. It's water, bro. It's water. But I'm going to say it's not the water that's that's that's underrated. It's the activity of floating down. I can't even troll you right now and say lakes are underrated because I'm going out to
Starting point is 00:58:44 Montana to a lake at the end of the summer. Exactly. But I can say that my underrated is kayaking. Bro, I just got into kayaking. And honestly, kayaking has. unlock a whole new world for me because for one for one you realize that if you've never been kayaking you're blocked off from so much more of the world like wherever you live wherever you're at it's a it's a different view of everything around you and that's amazing like you get
Starting point is 00:59:22 to see nature in a different light shout out to appomattox river company um for the hookup on the kayaks, me and my girl, like we've been on the river kayaking. That's why I cannot agree with you at all. It's actually, it's actually strengthening our relationship since we've been going on the river and spending time.
Starting point is 00:59:44 So everything you and Kyle are saying is... Kayaking on the river is great. Kayaking is great. I'm talking about floating. Just floating. Floating down the river. When kayak, you're mobile. You can cruise around.
Starting point is 00:59:55 Oh, what's that? Let me go check that out. Oh, I can go upstream if I want. A concept. When you're floating, you're just at the mercy of the rapids, man. You got to go figure out your car situation. It's a whole fucking thing, man. But kayaking on the river, I love.
Starting point is 01:00:09 I'm a big kayak boy. You want to hear my underrated? Walking. Summer, just a summer walk, you know, underrated. A little hot girl walk in the summer. Come on, birds are chirping. You got a little coffee maybe. You got to go somewhere and it's beautiful out.
Starting point is 01:00:30 Let me just fucking walk on over. Let me just a little summer stroll. Underrated walking. Maybe I just like walking more since I'm not fat as fuck. I don't get a sweaty. Overrated. Outdoors fitness. Outdoor fitness during the summer is overrated.
Starting point is 01:00:54 Unless you need to be coincide. It's too hot. It's way too hot. I think there's exceptions sometimes when you live, like maybe, like if you live near the beach, I think sand workouts can be good, but a lot of the times it's too hot. It's too hot. Go inside the gym or go somewhere like shaded over, but you don't need to be, you don't need to use the sun or to test mother nature like as an additive to your,
Starting point is 01:01:28 to you're working out. And I know you're a big workout guy, Bo, but I disagree with you, of course. I love going outside, popping top, a little prison workout outside. Come on. I mean, I'm not like doing fucking yoga at the park with the moms, but like, you know, I'm up here at the lake, get the lake view, get a nice little yard. Let me get something in real quick. You know, let me get some vitamin D.
Starting point is 01:01:51 Take my shirt off. A little sweat. It's not bad. All right. So our last overrated, underrated topic is. modes of transportation and I'll kick this one off because I think that by far the most underrated mode of transportation are the little rentable electric scooters that you can get you ever want to say fuck a walk you just get on a scooter it's like a buck 50 and you're cruising around feeling like
Starting point is 01:02:19 an absolute king you've got the wind in your hair it's beautiful outside all the joys of walking without having to move your legs I'm a huge amen brother you're throwing a little zan let your hair down. Ooh. That's one time I actually agree with that. I had a short stint where my license was suspended. So I was a huge, huge advocate of the scooter and riding the motorized scooter. But you've got to be careful on those.
Starting point is 01:02:50 They're pretty dangerous. I've had a couple. I've had a couple. Cowboy Reed and I had some good time scooting around Charlottesville Cowboys. did we whipped the dinner we were shooting right down the corner that was a blast oh you guys ever we're shredding now bro you guys ever have one turn off on you that's scary short stop short does it straight like wheels lock like thank god i am an athlete bro slam down in between my legs back tire like if i didn't like run forward for my momentum back tired it was coming to hit me in
Starting point is 01:03:25 my low back hard hard but that's a great great underrated. I'm going to say overrated mode of transportation. This is easy. It's walking. Walking is so overrated. You need your legs for so much more in life. And the fact
Starting point is 01:03:44 that we have to walk so many places and walking like stairs, it's just I'm waiting for in all time. I mean, we have technology where it's different, but I just feel like escalators and
Starting point is 01:03:59 things like that, they should be everywhere now, bro. Like, we, we walk too much, man. Sidewalks should just be, like, at airports. You know, those, like, flat escalator thing. Yeah, that's what I mean, yeah, the Jetsons. The sidewalk should be. Like, I mean, like, believe it or not, they're trying to get the, like, they gassed us.
Starting point is 01:04:19 Like, we should be, like, living like the Jetsons already. They did bare minimum walking. But, you know, the finesses, they made us forget about it. And they made walking marketable by making all these fucking trackers and putting all these step things. So now people, they want to take steps. And I'm like, nah. Like, nah, bro.
Starting point is 01:04:36 Like, I, I don't want to take, I don't want to take steps. If you want to get your leg strong, like, do some squats, man. Not outside, though. Yeah. Like inside. Inside only. All right. My underrated, similar vein as Foshae, but huge moped guy, huge moped guy, elite mode of
Starting point is 01:04:57 transportation. It was my only, it was my, my, I have a 50-cc-jama-zuma in Tampa. I had no car for the last year. It kind of started off as a little bit of a bit, and then I just rolled with it. I got an e-moped up here in Minneapolis. Shout out, Cake.
Starting point is 01:05:15 Really stoked about that new steed, so I'm going to be cruising around the lakes, but it's kind of same thing. Like, what's really nice about this emopet is it's quiet as fuck. Put some tunes on, smoke a little bit of reefer, let the hair down, throwing a zen. I'm cruising around. Also, it's an e-moped, but it looks like an e-bike.
Starting point is 01:05:33 So I am just pulling these sketchiest maneuvers, riding in the bike lanes, riding on sidewalks. Nobody really knows what the fuck's going on because this moped looks like a bike. It's like, I feel like I can get away with anything on this thing. It's awesome. Shocks are busted on that thing. Check it out. How much gas you got to put in?
Starting point is 01:05:49 Oh, I'm dope. How much gas? E-moped, baby. I get 64 miles to the charge. Just a big-ass batter. That's all we got. I got a backseat facts. Anytime you want to cruise around, just hold on tight.
Starting point is 01:06:01 I got you. We'll be riding around just to two of us on this emopad. That's so funny. You can pick the music. Underrated, I'm going to say, is golf carts. Yes. Golf carts are very, very underrated. I just had a family vacation with my girl down in Carolina Beach in North Carolina.
Starting point is 01:06:23 And my girl, she rented for the week, a six-person golf. cart like two seats the driver seat and then a passenger two seats behind and then the the two seats facing um um opposite way on the back and that thing was absolutely awesome supposedly it gets like a hundred miles on one one full tank of gas and that thing got up to 35 40 miles per hour and it was It was amazing. It was the dopest experience. And then when it's hot, riding that to the beach, it was a dope experience. I'm really all for all for the golf carts.
Starting point is 01:07:11 Love it. Flurry. Overrated for me is plane, flying. Like, honestly, I've been in the Midwest. I've been in between. I'm in my cabin in Wisconsin. I've been in Minnesota a lot. Like, everyone in the Midwest kind of fucking drives.
Starting point is 01:07:27 we need a we need like a train system you know flying overrated like I would rather take a you know a four hour train than a two hour flight you know like give me a train between Minneapolis and Chicago give me I went to college at UW University of Wisconsin it's in Madison I have made the drive from Minneapolis Minnesota to Madison Wisconsin more times than I can count and it's fucking brutal there is no reason we shouldn't have a train system there But, yeah, flying needs to be replaced by a nice, cohesive, you know, all across the U.S. train system. When we were in Philly, whenever we played, you know, the team formerly known as the Redskins, we would take a train down there. We'd play cards on the train. We'd shoot the shit, rest up, stretch your feet out. It was like the best road game of the year. We, like, look forward to it. It is awesome.
Starting point is 01:08:21 So, fuck flying. Bring on trains. I'm a huge train advocate. Like, luckily for me in the area of New Jersey. York, I grew up in MTA, Metro North was a huge part of my life growing up before I was able to drive. And it's something that, like, hearing, like, in meeting people once you grow up from different areas. And I grew up in New York. So we had almost every public type of public transportation like that there is. And I'm just, like even me being 35, I'm just realizing and
Starting point is 01:08:56 knowing that every place, every town doesn't have a public bus. And that's like mind blowing to me. That's mind blowing to me that like everywhere doesn't. And then like you're saying, like there's no trains or there's no like not every, there's not every area that has a close train station that's going to bigger cities. Like, and I grew up around all of that. They're like Grand Central goes literally anywhere up and down the East Coast all the way from New York, from New York to Maine or New York to like Alabama.
Starting point is 01:09:25 It goes through all the states. And that's like, like you're saying, that was always an option other than if you didn't want to fly or take a plane somewhere. That was always another way to do things. But I definitely agree with the fact that I feel like I don't know if you're throwing in. You're making it seem like we should have, someone should have picked trains as underrated because it seems like everyone likes trains here. That's what I would have picked. Oh, I mean, I love a good train, huge locomotive advocate. my vastly overrated is fuck the subway.
Starting point is 01:10:01 Like the subway is so overrated. Everybody in New York is on their high horse about the subway. I kind of love the subway sucks. It's disgusting. I love that you don't. There's rats. There's some dude shooting up heroin. There's a dead body in there.
Starting point is 01:10:16 The subway is overrated and everybody in New York needs to get off their high horse and just quit talking about the damn. How about when you have it a little bit? long day you get in the subway you hear it's showtime and and the dudes are about to start doing backflips two two and a half inches away from your face and your feet and then ask you for money after oh man i i majority of my friends that i went to high school with they live in the city and that's their way they get around and they're used to it and they love it and i absolutely absolutely hate it. And it's like a running joke.
Starting point is 01:10:59 They know, like, when I come to town, that if they even mention any type of plan that, I don't care if it's two blocks. Like, if we have to go underground, bro, I'm taking a taxi and I'll meet you guys there. And they're like, no, bro, it's going to be, no, I will meet you guys there because it's just a different world down there, bro. It's just a different world. It's the underbell.
Starting point is 01:11:21 It is. It's the underbelly. It is. There's, it's great. I can't get enough of it. You're just looking for the camaraderie. I love the subway. Something about that smell.
Starting point is 01:11:36 Just, I love it. Our last thing for today, we've got a little Convo mailbag, some fan questions that we're going to bring up here. Our number one question that I think we all have something great for, you're a burglar, but you only steal items to minorly inconvenience your victims. What are you taking from them? I'm taking all of your TV remotes and all of your, your,
Starting point is 01:12:02 um, your squares and, and phone chargers. Oh, phone chargers. All, I had some guests up at the cabin and one of my phone chargers disappeared. I'm about to go on the fucking warpath,
Starting point is 01:12:15 dude. So inconvenient. Oh, man. Stealing a phone charger on vacation is like, is, is like, you got to do that,
Starting point is 01:12:24 bro. But you got to be a good, host. You got to be a good host and take that on the head, bro. First, first, are they, are they still there? Find out who. No, they left. They're gone. My phone chargers with them, dude. I'm going to put a fucking Apple tag on my phone charger next time they'll come up. So you want to know how to solve this and see if this works? Everyone that was there put them in a group chat and say, hey, I don't care, but here's my Venmo. If one of you guys by accident took my, my iPod,
Starting point is 01:12:55 charger, they shoot me a VEMO, whatever you think, whatever you think it's worth. Thank you. And, and just see if it was the bigger brick too, you know, the bigger brick ones, the newer ones. They charge your phone up real fast, real good. It's my favorite one. Or just send that link, send that message with the Amazon link to the same exact one. And maybe, maybe someone will send you the money or they'll get it for you and replace it. But that's awful. That's so funny. Maybe or maybe you weren't a good host and they were being devious, bro. And I like it if that was too. Someone's like, hey, I'm leaving here with this.
Starting point is 01:13:35 You'll find out. I'm an excellent host. I'm an excellent host. All right. Maybe I just need to leave more phone charges out. All right. So I like your pick facts. If I'm a burglar and I want to inconvenience somebody, you want to know what I'm stealing,
Starting point is 01:13:49 I'm going to steal your lady's birth control. Oh, Yo, that is... Talk about real inconvenient, man. Wow, that is... Yeah. Good. That's devious.
Starting point is 01:14:03 That is devious, but it's, that's devious, but, like, I don't know if it'll fully, fully work, but that is very, that's, that's very devious. That's, that's funny, though. I mean, that could play out a number of ways. Like, imagine your girl's like, oh, my, my birth control is missing. In the back of your mind, you're like, is it, though? Like, did someone break? break in and just steal the birth control?
Starting point is 01:14:25 Or are you, what are you trying to say here? Or, you know, maybe you don't realize until it's too late. Yeah. Yeah. So that's what I'm taking. I'm stocking up. I'm going house to house. Birth control.
Starting point is 01:14:36 Honorable mention. Birth control ban. Honorable mention, like, taking someone's keys or car keys, like, both sets. Like, having to deal with that, like, getting a new car key made, like, from scratch or, like, hitting up. Like, the dealer, that shit is a nightmare. bro like it's an absolute nightmare or like i have a key that like you have to get i have a push to start so like you have to get it like program and dealing with the dealership to do that is a nightmare is it's so inconvenient so inconvenient yeah unless you drive a kea and then you can just i have a bunch
Starting point is 01:15:15 of these use a USB a USB just open it right up mom was going to be the one thing i'm stealing I'm going to take all of your batteries. Any extra batteries that you have lying around in your house, they're gone. As soon as you need it, you think you got a whole pack, gone. Batteries is a good thing too. Or take all the knobs off your cabinets. So every time you see, I was looking around my cabinet. It's like, oh.
Starting point is 01:15:45 When you're reaching, if you have to reach to get silverware or whatever, every time is just like, what the fuck? Like, what the hell? I have to grab from the side or up above cabinets. It seems like it wouldn't be a big deal. But after a while, like, that should have annoyed the hell out of you. So our next question from the mailbag, what's something you can say during sex and also say at the McDonald's drive-thru? I'm loving it.
Starting point is 01:16:18 Come on. You can't just fucking tee me up like that. Oh, you can say, can I double that order? I'm going with, would you like whipped cream with that? Oh. Back in the day, you used to be able to say, can you supersize me? That's what I was just going to say, fags. Supersize, baby.
Starting point is 01:16:53 And then you're just pop in your little nightstand and grab a blue pill, you know? The other one I was going to say is, you want fries with that? Because I feel like, you know, you're banging one out. And someone says, you want fries with that? You're kind of going to be like, yeah, kind of. It's a lovely accoutrement to the experience. Would you like this Big Mac? Oh.
Starting point is 01:17:21 Oh, that's a funny one. That's a funny one. I feel like this same question could apply in so many different scenarios, though. You know what I mean? For sure, definitely. Like different things you can say when you're having sex versus like, you know, I'm taking this math class. I got my mind on math class. Things you can say while having sex and a math class.
Starting point is 01:17:42 Is this the right angle? Acute or obtuse? Yeah, exactly. Or just 69! People say like my dick is hard as this arithmetic, you know? Here's another one for you. One item you would never pay cheaper for. Oh, I can't wait to hear what facts are.
Starting point is 01:18:10 All right. This is maybe a no-brainer, but I'm going mattress. Oh. Like, bigger guy, you know, you buy a shitty box spring mattress. Like, you're paying for that. You spend a third of your life asleep. You know, like shell out. Get yourself a nice mattress.
Starting point is 01:18:25 Get something that you're going to feel good laying down in at night. You learn. Yeah, I'm never buying a cheap mattress. To do another search. You learn the hard way if you don't, I mean, if you do do this, but you can't buy cheap phone chargers. Like, you can't buy cheap phone chargers. They're going to die and stop working when you absolutely need them to. And most of the bootleg phone chargers, for whatever reason, it's like hit or miss if they're going to work in your car.
Starting point is 01:18:53 Like any car USB, like, if they're going to work. And it's just like, hey, spend it. This USB is not compatible with this device. Exactly. It's just- Fucking annoying. It's so annoying. It's just been the extra extra 10 bucks to get the Apple version.
Starting point is 01:19:08 Like they really have a monopoly on all their shit. Like I think they do it purposely. And like I get it marketing wise, but it's like damn, bro. Like we're going to buy every fucking iPhone. We're going to buy it. Like let the bootleggers have the sauce to make like cheaper charges, bro. But until then, you have to spend that extra $10 bucks on a real charger. Because everything else you can buy refurbished.
Starting point is 01:19:39 And I feel like the way Amazon and the way the consumer market is, you can probably find a knockoff version of anything and everything that you can pay for that would probably make it kind of worth it. But what do you think? buying knockoff charges for when you come up to the cabin, because I still got the good ones. That's what you're supposed to do if you're smart is leave those out for your guest so you're not.
Starting point is 01:20:09 I'm trying to be a good host. No, you're only only Apple, like, ready to go. I got your charges unlocked. Your shit's going to be charged up. I fucked up. A good host wouldn't be upset. A good host knows that something might go missing when you have a house full of people. Huh.
Starting point is 01:20:26 Here's another thing I'm not cheaping out on. These two are kind of related, so I'm just going to put them together. Socks and shoes. Love, like, love a fresh good sock, like a good brand new wool sock. Oh, God, that's fucking nice. And then shoes, like, you know, when you're big fucker, like, get these big white-ass feet, you buy, you buy shoes that don't fit. You're paying for it. It's not worth it.
Starting point is 01:20:49 I like that answer. But it's funny. As of late, I've been a no sock guy. I fell in love with the shoe brand. named canes and they don't require you to wear socks. And I also like crocs and things that, yeah, I feel like socks, they put a strain on your toes and your feet. And when it's hot, my feet get sweaty.
Starting point is 01:21:16 So I'm a huge fan. I've been a huge fan of not wearing socks at all. But I do understand what you're saying. Having your feet in your hands are two, like our four things combined that you need to use for the majority of your life and keeping them comfortable and, and workable, like to your best ability is is very, very important. So shoes, I had to grow out of picking cool shoes versus picking. cool shoes that are comfortable like at an at an age of my life
Starting point is 01:21:59 because I used Hey that's how I know you're ready to be a father Bro you can't like That's a that's a dad decision Yeah bro like you can't be walking around Thinking you're cool with a pair of Jordan's on if they're they're hurting your feet Like you you'll quickly realize
Starting point is 01:22:15 When you go home that hey like maybe that wasn't worth it And like my feet hurting for a couple of days after I grew out of that like big time. So I definitely understand. Another convo mailbag that we've got for us. What fictional car would you love to drive? Easy.
Starting point is 01:22:34 I don't know the name of it, but the men in black car, bro. Yo, when the men in black car as a guy from New York, when they're in, I think the Lincoln Tunnel and it's backed up in traffic, which is an absolute shit show. You want to talk about being in traffic,
Starting point is 01:22:53 somewhere being in traffic in a tunnel in new york is absolute hell but the fact that you can press a button and drive up the ceiling and through that traffic i remember seeing as a kid and just being like that shit is fire yeah and they got all the sick-ass guns in the back all that bro like it's teed up ready to go that's a uh 1987 forward ltd crown vick crown vick crown viz That's fire. A souped up crown Vic. I love it. Love it.
Starting point is 01:23:27 What about you, Bo? Nice pick, facts. All right, I got two. Our first one is the Warthog from the Halo series. More specifically the Goss Wharthog. Absolutely iconic video game car. You never forget the first time you're driving that thing. The music comes on.
Starting point is 01:23:45 You're ripping around. Oh, Halo 2. Like, oh, man, good memories. That was my first one. And my second one, Mad Max Fury Road, the big-ass car with the guy in the guitar on it, who's like his only job is just be like the hype man drummer boy for their little motor brigade. He's like this guy that's like strapped into this harness just shredding on the guitar with like a million amps behind him. I want to rip around on that thing.
Starting point is 01:24:10 You're going to know I'm coming. I think that mine would be the invisible boatmobile from SpongeBob. Oh my God. Just cruising around, floating completely see-through. you're just chilling through town everybody's going what the hell is this guy doing just nobody knows nobody knows that would be late that's why we need that gen z energy on the pod foge i love it all right and our last one who is the greatest fictional restaurant employee of all time this is easy it is ardi buca from the sopranos. Artie is just your typical, like absolute madman, but he's a good guy and a good
Starting point is 01:24:55 friend at the end of the day. And he let Tony, like, he didn't really let, but like a guy that's going to let you have a big ass tab at a nice restaurant is always a plus.
