I was like, that is just how I used to push people in the street with Trevor on Grand Theft Auto when I was tired of the objective or I'd forgotten what I was supposed to do and I found myself in another part of town. I'd just try to get some stars. This pod is about change. This pod is about uncertainty.

But this pod is a good pod. This is a positive pod, dude. We've got a great guess. for you today and that guest is going to be all the fun you have listening to the show. The guest is Kevin Bacon and Hollow Man if you're picking up what I'm putting down. Couldn't come up with a guest today. I'm just going to put that one out there. But there's so much good news. There's barely room for a guest. We had some big time guest call and say I heard about the Blue Wire news. Can we be on the pod? And we're like, no, there's not a lot of room. There's

just so much good news that we have to talk about. We wanted to break it back down, get down to the foundation. Yep. when we started, what, 2000? The five pillars. The five pillars. Passion, unity, servanthood, thankfulness. Did I say humility? Did you know you didn't, but you just nailed it, dude?

Bang, bang, bang. So we wanted to get back to basics, you know? You sign a big deal. Do you go after the Charles Barclay? Nah. Nah, it's you and me, cause. They invested in us. We want to give the people what they want.

This is not, and we're going to get it in this a minute, Like this is not, you know, well, it's something like the first year after contract, the big contract, your player just perpetually disappoints you. And a bunch of new people are probably tuning in. So if you're a blue wire listener that stumbled upon our pod, thank you. It's usually better. It's usually better. We're sandbagging. And the difference between us and that player that makes a fuck ton of money and then starts mailing it in is we're not mailing it in.

We're really trying today. Oh, and the fuck ton of money part, at least on this side of the table. So, I mean, I said change. I said uncertainty. Obviously, we're going to talk about the new deal, change. Maybe not much change. Uncertainty. I'm going to Montana here soon in a couple days.

Hoo, hoo, hoo, ho, hoo, kitty pals. Remember when your family said they were, they were heading out for the weekend? Yeah. Got the same little feeling going on over here. When my family left and I got like, Just a little bit of hey, some me time. Yeah, tingly feeling. You're feeling the same way. And, hey, none intended, and I hope none taken.

No, not at all. I'm more thinking about Montana. But yeah, it's like, hey, the boss is gone for as long as you like. I don't think of myself as the boss. I think about us as mutual sidekicks. So anyways, there's a lot of good energy going on, new deal. I mean, like, there's, everything in the universe is just aligning right now. I feel like I need to check my horoscope. I was on Ricky Williams pod recently, which was marvelous.

And he was selling me on horoscopes. I think I'm believing in it. I don't know if it's the super moon energy going on. I think we have so many fucking super moons these days. It's like super moon inflation. And I love it. I got no problem with it. I'm a cancer.

Get it? Yeah, I do. This show is going to be an ego boost. And so we're going to need to take breaks. Taylor's in today. Substitute producer. Taylor, who you guys haven't met yet, has been working. hard behind the scenes. He's been shadowing Cowboy Reed. He's like a little goucho.

Now, Taylor might be the best producer this land has ever known, but just so we're clear, just so we're clear, sign a new deal, follow it up with no guest. No producer. And the producer goes on vacation. Yeah, producer went on vacation. Some crunchy, some crunchy ass spot. Wherever he is. So we're going to need to take a couple of humility breaks as the show goes on. Taylor will nudge us, you know, towards bringing it back down to earth a little bit. And today with the 7-1 news, the new laws in the state of Virginia that make it easier to smoke a plant, Studio Jay is in full effect here and making will need to try to drive this train to keep it moving. So you're the conductor today, all aboard.

Mississauga, Ontario. Hello! Whenever I say Mississauga, Ontario, I like to say Mississauga, Ontario, I like to say Mississauga, Ontario Canada, but I wouldn't say Charlottesville, Virginia, USA. Nope. So I cut out the Canada. I think that's how a real Canadian would do. I'm sure we'll hear about it on the internet. I'm sure we fucked it up somehow. But you're a big Blue Jays fan, so you're probably good there. Yeah, Mississauga, a little southwest of Torrentino there. What's the Blue Jays record? Yeah, 41 and 37.

I think it's 17 and 16 in my mind's eye. 41 and 37, dog. I'm never more than two games behind. Okay, got it. Don't ask me about the Phillies. Um, hey, anyways, can I do a hello thing? Hello, San Francisco. That was really good. I think it might have been a touch overmodulated. Okay, hold on.

We'll fix it in post. Hello! Still overmodulated. Hello. Yeah, there you go. Okay, hello. Within yourself. Hello, Bay Area.

Hello, San Francisco. San Francisco is where Blue Wire Media was founded. So, you know, their house currently in Los Angeles. Their production arm is in Vegas. but hello, Vegas, L.A. But Blue Wire is everywhere. Blue Wire is a network of sports podcasts. And we made a big announcement this week

that we're kind of collaborating with these folks. We're moving on over. We're moving on up. And we're part of the Blue Wire team. And WinBet is coming on as our title sponsor of this Greenlight podcast. I know that Blue Wire has brand new studios in Las Vegas. I know, which is exciting.

And, you know, when I saw, I saw that picture the day that the news broke about us heading over to Blue Wire to join their expanse of wonderful podcasts. The hook line and sinker thing was they're ripping out brick and mortar shops in the wind, which is a place I've stayed for years, and they are putting in like content factories, places that we can go to do things like March Madness, the NFL draft, like activations, IRL stuff, okay, IRL.

That's sick. That's in real life. 90% of the feedback I've gotten from friends and family in light of the news is, are you, will you be going to Vegas? Right. And when? It depends on who's asking you how you answer, huh? Right, right.

What happens when your lovely wife asks her, does she even know that we've signed with blue wire? No, no, no. She doesn't. Actually, yeah, she caught you on IG. She's going to know when she sees you wearing that win bet polo that I had on the other day. It's you're swimming in it. and I appreciate the brand. It's an XL.

Megaphone that you are right now. You got water boys on the dome. You got windbed on the titty. I'm just, what's his face? I'm Ricky Bobby, baby. And in the spirit of that, you know,

I do want to say this. Listen, like in all seriousness, and I don't say this enough on air. The other day, you know, we had this beautiful kind of rendition of me. They made me look better looking than I am,

and they put me up there with the blue wire, number one pick jersey, which was cool. And it made me feel warm inside and wanted. But you weren't on that thing. I noticed that.

I know, I'm sure you did. I know that I'm the name, but this show could not be what it is without making Gunner. So Taylor, a little two-man round of applause, what's three, because Macon's clapping for himself. Dr. Fax is in the other room. Dr. Fax is back today. If you're a ground floor listener, you know who Dr. Fax is. He's been out for the Pandy. Dr. Fax is going to be on the show today.

So yes, big ups, as they'd say, to my wonderful co-hosts, one of the best in the land, if not the best. I only say that because I don't listen to other podcasts. Otherwise, I could with authority say that he's the best in the land. Well, thanks, I guess. I didn't, I don't know if you noticed that we were in the newspaper today. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And there was a picture of both of us. Yeah, yeah.

My, I don't know who I didn't sign off on this picture. my legs are crossed in such a way. I don't even know how they, I don't know how they got on cross. You really do quite a twisty thing there. You cross and twist. Yeah. So that was weird. It was a dopy smile.

You're fucking, from the waist down, you look like a twizzler. The way it's all wrapped around and like intertwine, those are your legs. They're just, they just keep wrapping around each other. And so I'm not mentioning the article, no big deal. Left leg looks like a vine growing on a fucking, a sapling. And I was trying to keep the Venn diagram. Right leg. The people who read newspapers in central Virginia away from the pod, that's now no longer doable.

That's a scary thing. That's funny because if you think about people that read newspapers, they're older, more like conservative type people. And I hate to use the C word right now. But I mean conservative ideologically. Like they don't like hosts of podcasts smoking dope. They don't know what podcasts are. They might want to buy some real estate.

So thank you for taking those risks. Yeah. Yeah, you're welcome. My name was there in the, in the couch. caption, I reckon. So yeah. But we couldn't be here without you, man. I know a lot of listeners, and I should be like the first person, the first people I

should be thanking or the listeners, like you guys have, listen, we turned this thing on, this microphone on like two years ago, right? And if you're sitting there like rolling your eyes, we're not going to celebrate for fucking seven pods. We're just going to milk it for a second. We just signed a new deal. Making knows me. I barely pay attention to good stuff that happens in my life.

I'm 2 ADD, you know. But I do want to take a day and just say, like, we've come a long way. The people that have listened to our pod from the beginning when it was like dog shit in the beginning, and I didn't know what I was doing and Makin knew what he was doing kind of, but I didn't know what I was doing. And I've grown a lot as a podcaster. I know you've grown.

Like, this is something that we started from the ground up with zero podcast experience, not me. Make, you had ironically, the most media experience. with your resume in Virginia sports, but our producers, you know, haven't worked on podcasts before. We haven't.

We kind of threw this thing together, and I feel like now the coolest thing about that deal, the money's cool, we're going to have more money to play with, we can keep the lights on, we can do IRL shit. You guys heard about that stuff.

There's a factory for us. There's a playground waiting for us at the win. There's other awesome podcasts on the Blue Wire Network that we can kind of collaborate and cross-pollinate with. That stuff's all awesome.

But if I'm being honest as a competitor, as somebody who wants our product to be great and wants you to be happy with it, I feel like we can all look at it and be like, yo, this is cool. Like we're a commodity. Like people are buying what we're selling. And so in the spirit of that,

I just want to say, we're not selling anything fucking different. Nothing's changing. The only thing that's going to change is we're going to get better. We're going to get better and better and better. And more people are going to listen to our podcast, because of the exposure, they're like blue wire

and the wind's gonna give us and the other podcasts on the Blue Wire Network. Like, so if you're a ground floor passenger on this train, all aboard, okay? You should be proud of that. Thank you for sitting through some really dog shit podcasting by myself, not so much making, and a really steep learning curve that we've kind of had to climb. All right, I'll give you like eight seconds of the reel.

Yeah. Congrats. Congrats to you. I know you work very, hard at this. It might at times look like we cut open the mics and just talk. And yeah, ultimately that's what it comes down to. But you work really hard at this and it's paying off. And congrats. I'm just so long for the ride. That's just some, you're doing a whole press conference thing. Don't be, you're the key. Hey, the glue. Hey, the first one you ever did, you said,

hey, you want to look at this? And I said, sure. And it was great. But it was, uh, it was two hours of you looking into like one camera with notes in your lap, you're shuffling through them. And the content is excellent. Yeah. But there's no second voice in the room to laugh at your jokes and you're a funny cat. To be real, though. Yeah. I did say, hey, check out what we're doing and you offered your services.

So for, for, for. Oh, I offered my critique, I think. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. We got to get this straight because all the days you, you sit in the bit, I know sometimes. It's not a bit. The almighty bit of you acting like you don't want to be here. You said to me, listen, it wouldn't hurt if you had somebody to say. sit back in the back and laugh at your jokes.

Yes. And kind of like make sure everything's working well. Facts. So you did offer your services. No, that's not offering my services. Oh, it's not? I said you just need another voice. And then next thing you know, like Pangia, you just, you just moved.

And then my guy here, and then my guy here says, hey, maybe do you want to sit in? Oh, look, I'll go. Well, I did that. No, I did. I moved you to co-host. Okay. I think you thought you'd be sitting in the back with like a GoPro strap to yourself, like every 36 minutes and looking up a score of a game.

No, man, I need you as my co-host. Couple years later. A couple years later. And I got to say this, this is payback from all those days in college when you used to make me ride in your white Jeep Grand Cherokee. Well, redact, please. It's gone now, dude. We don't need to redact old vehicles.

And you're sitting there, and like back in the day, you used to do radio for high school or college. High school primarily. You did high school primarily basketball. You spotted for UVA basketball. But the pinnacle my career was the 2000. 2008 ACC men's basketball tournament. Yeah, I love what you're doing, though.

You used to make me sit in the car, we'd be like, hey, on our way to like a party or something or wherever. And instead of music, you would play your fucking... Play-by-play. Play-by-play. From a high school gym, like, I could hear the squeaks. Oh, yeah. I could hear the other...

The famous high school gym that was the Georgia Dome. Now, this was the one time I do the college, ACC tournament. Bobby Fraser played for UNC. Tyler Hansborough. This is your one shining moment. Ty Lawson. He was in a boot. That team went on to win the national title.

But yes, I made you listen to my play by play. So this is payback. My long play, it was over a decade long, was to start a podcast, just so you had to sit in here and listen to me talk for two years.

And I want you to know that this has been a bit, the entire thing. And it's been payback. And I appreciate it because accidentally I decided we should just keep doing this forever because now we're a commodity. So payback's a bitch, man. You're stuck in that chair.

And yeah. So again, today we had to say, hey, how great are we? Because we don't do that a lot. We kind of hate ourselves. But today we feel pretty good. So, you know, it's good every once in a while. And for the new people, it gives you a little background on the fact that we have no idea what we're doing. We are the number one middle school friend podcast in the world. Fucking irrefutable. Yeah. irrefutable. We need a humility break. We need to tear each other down a little bit.

We need to tear ourselves down. Freight train's got to come to a stop real quick. Yeah, it's got a little maintenance check. We're stopping at at self-loathing station real quick. Okay. I'll hit you with two. Yeah, go ahead. Our picture was in the paper and the damn set is cheeks.

There's a picture of the set and it still looks cheeks. Okay, well, it used to look sick and now it looks cheeks. Guess what? When I get back from from the Wild West, there's going to be a whole new set. But you're missing the point. We were supposed to tear ourselves down here because we pumped ourselves up.

I'm in a real estate closing today, no big deal. Yeah. Maybe it was, you know. A little humble break there. Yeah, you know. And I like Taylor because Reed might not have sniped you on that. The attorney next to me starts to write the date.

He starts to write 7-2. Well, it's 7-1. And I say, who, you know, making fun of my man. And he says to me in front of my clients, front of our mutual clients. You know, you're an asshole. And which was totally fair.

He and I have a... Oh, you guys have a good report. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're good like that. How about the clients? But, you know, they laughed. It was funny. They laughed.

But it dawned on me. It really isn't a bit. I just kind of am... Yeah. And you realize that today? Yeah. Are you fucking kidding me? No, I'm not.

Like, I thought it's... I've always thought it's been like a dry comedy sort of deal. Like, I'm doing a bit. I'm funny. People like me. But it's not that way. people don't like me. They don't enjoy it.

Ha! You're just realizing this. Yeah. We could just stop the humility break right here. No, why don't you go? Oh man. Well, my teeth are getting straight now, so I can't make fun of my teeth.

That would have been my go-to. My nose is a little bit crooked. Huge nostrils. Oh, the big nostrils actually help you out. They do? Really? If I had smaller nostrils, that'd be a problem? Yeah, your nose would be too straight.

like a really straight nose. I wish I had more nostril actually. Yeah. I got narrow nostrils. I don't know. There's a lot about myself that I hate. Can I can I space it out a little bit? Sure. So we don't put it all in the first couple minutes. I hate my voice. As you would say for sure. For sure. This is what I'm really excited to talk about the arts. Well first off I want to talk about cinema. It's about the layup line. You guys know what time it is. But well, North Dallas 40. Just a reminder. last week necessary roughness

me and coach wookie my high school baseball coach a movie reviewer extraordinaire broke down necessary roughness the week before we did remember the Titans coming up this Tuesday is going to be North Dallas 40 a movie that I'm afraid to say

I think I like it featuring Bambi Woods oh wait no that's Debbie does Dallas my bad prawn joke Damn, son. Yeah. Getting some hair on your upper lip.

Oh. Since we got paid. Is that her name in real life? It wasn't Debbie? Bambi Woods is either played by Debbie Benton or Debbie Benton is played by Bambi Woods. Yeah, if Debbie is doing Dallas, I guess Debbie's the character played by Bambi Woods. The plot of that movie is just that she has sex with as many people as possible. Is that the, wasn't it like a convention center?

You'll be shocked, but I have not seen the film. I think it's 12,000. Okay. Is it 12,000? Look it up. Don't look up the film. See if you can just wiki it and tell me how many. So, North Dallas 40, Tuesday. So watch that this weekend. If you want to get into this whole movie review thing, let me know. It's hard to tell if you guys get that far into our podcast sometimes. I do not. I know you don't. That goes without saying. Okay. Layup line today. Hits from the bong, Cypress Hill. Not even a big bong guy, okay? but the news today and that by the way is one of the best bangers like that crew ever came out with the beginning of that song is just it's just heavy it's just the is that the buffalo springfield joint yeah dude okay yeah yeah they do use the riff from buffalo springfield um and you know the

the the baseline is crazy and then the bong water sound like it's just listen i was listening to cypress hill when I had no idea how to smoke marijuana. Anyways, Cypress Hill, stoner rap group, it is July 1st. And what that means is that possession of up to announce for people 21 and older, check. You and I. Anything more than that, but less than a pound

is punishable by a $25 fine. Possession of more than a pound will still get you some clinker time. Okay. I'm not going to be nitpicky about that part if you're walking around with more than a pound, like you're fighting, you're fighting corporate America. You know, that's when they really want to hit you.

You'll still go to the clinker. And gifting up to an ounce is still legal. So thank you very much to anybody wants to give me like 0.99 ounces. You know, you asked me, what can we do to celebrate your blue wire deal? Drop it off at the office. Up to an ounce, still legal. Gifting, $25 fine if you smoke in public. And it is now legal to grow, but I'm not a DIY guy.

I won't be doing that. Retail begins in 2024. Basically, what you're doing is legal now. Yes, what I'm doing is legal. What I'm doing is legal, and that's why today, for the first time, we can smoke marijuana in this studio. Okay, keep saying we, yeah. I can. I can.

I'm using the royal we. I took an oath. You took an oath. You took a real estate oath. I put that on Twitter, like, so people don't understand. Like, don't get it twisted. He sells real estate. He took an oath. He can't do it.

Okay, so what we have here is a retired football player, current podcaster, about to light up a joint of marijuana. It appears to contain a significant amount of legal drugs. And he is going to light it with a, I don't know what we call one of those handheld lighters with a big black stick on the end. He has now lit the joint. I think it's called a joint, and he is inhaled and now exhaled. It's legal. This is legal. Nothing about this is illegal.

It was gifted to me. And I'm happy as a clam here. Now I can legally smoke marijuana on the set. So this is a cone. I like to smoke cones. I'm not really great at rolling joints. Like little fingers and like motor skills. And my fingers are all jacked up.

So I really like rolling cones, which, you know, my favorite would be raw cone. But I've been too lazy. Imagine that to go to the store and get raw cones. But yeah, it's a celebration, man. And today it's celebration tomorrow, life goes on. Okay? You know, what I don't want to see kids using this shit.

I don't want to see people burning their house down. I don't want to see any fire trucks. Okay. Don't leave your shit. Don't get too stoned and leave your roach just burning on your cheap carpet. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Mayor, do you have any tips for the people?

Tips. I got a lot of tips, okay? I wrote a little list of tips. Oh, how convenient. Yeah. get an electronic grinder. I know there's some people that are going to call me a snob,

but Banana Bros. Banana Brothers has a great electronic grinder. I put it on my IG story last week and people were like, what the fuck is that? In like the year 2006, I had a banana boat smoothie from smoothie king and I got a little sick because I was nervous going to a Kenny Chesney concert up at the Nissan Pavilion

and I vomited into Daniel Sheeran's car. He was driving. I was the passenger and I was getting sick and we had kind of made friends with the cars in line next to us. So I didn't want to open the door and throw up and they were like, oh, he's drinking or something. I was not. I was just nervous for Kenny. So I turned to Dan. I started to throw up on him.

He hits me in the face and I throw up sort of across the windshield and to the side of my door. And I spent that summer cleaning out, cleaning banana boat out of his forerner. I got good news for you, man. That's a great story to have good news for you. Yeah, what? Marijuana can help with nausea. Oh, shoot. So I'll settle that right down.

Great. Pretty soon you won't even be worried about Kenny. So yeah, get an electronic grinder. Get a dry box. Like the ones you get from Orvis or like from, you know, wherever the fuck you shop for your outdoor adventure, your water adventure products. Get a good dry box and keep your bag of button there.

It's a real simple, easy way to keep the stench out of your closet. So you don't sound like you have a, you don't smell like you have a, you don't smell like you have a decent. dispensary, you know, next to your sock drawer. Keep your shit up high, okay? You got edibles in the house. Put them in a safe. Put them up high, you know, so your kids can't get to them.

Pets. That's important. Pets as well. Stores and Bickle, great products, okay? Stores and Bickle, like, in some people are like, yes, dude, we've smoked before. But there's a lot of soccer moms listening to this pod that are like, you know, maybe I want to save my liver and I might want to be like testing the waters in free agency when it comes to vices.

Okay, ladies, get a stores and bickle. Ladies. I'm not saying it's unbecoming for you to have a blunt or a joint in your mouth. I actually respect it, but not everybody's going to feel that way. Maybe your tight-ass, uptight-ass husbands won't like it. Get a stores and bickle. Doesn't smell quite as strong. Get a little like a mighty vaporizer.

That's the safest, healthiest way to actually burn up cannabis and put it in your lungs. it gets you just the stoned as a joint. And it's less of a like, a discombobulating high. So stores and Bickle, you can get a big volcano. We've talked about those on the show here. You can also get a little mini, so you can put that in your little purse.

And then when you go out, you're going to be risking that $25 fine, right? Okay? Right. But you guys are boogey as hell. You got money. Kids go to private schools. Put that shit in your little Prada bag.

Okay. It'll fit there, grind up some fucking gelato 41 from Alien Labs, and put that bad boy in the top of that stores and Bickle, and it'll send it to outer space up through the tube and into your lungs. For my friends and family listening for the first time, we do usually talk about sports. For instance, the NBA playoffs are ongoing, and the NFL season is just around the corner.

Who do you think can really smoke on that Sun's team? First overall pick Burning down trees As I like to say Yeah On the Phoenix sun's Frank Kaminsky Fuck yeah he burns trees Bro because he was

He was I mean he's he's smoking He had probably A gram of indica Before Chris Paul got shoved last night I mean his reactions I know it was slow motion But it was just like

What bro? They were all those sons Were into couch Yeah all the sons were in the couch Maybe the sons need a They need a strain Yeah We talk about player strains on here.

The Suns need a team strain. Honorable mention Tori Craig. Tori and Frank might... Fucking Patrick Beverly couch locked him. Dude. We're going to get into that. Let me finish my tips here, okay? I love cones.

I already talked about that. No sativa at night. Some of you crazy motherfuckers might like smoking sativa at night. I get people that ask that really don't smoke or whatever. And some people that do smoke don't think there's any difference. I think there's a big difference between Sativa and Indica, the buzz. and I think if imagine your brain being a pinball okay like sativa is the pinball game on hard

it's just the ball is just everywhere as fast as it can possibly go and Indica speeds my brain up to a degree depending on what I'm doing so you don't need that sativa at night you'll wake up with a panic attack and not even know why you're having a panic attack oh it's just because you smoked green crack the thing is called green crack this is kind of like the cat William

stand-up routine. I forget it was the one where I think he had the green jacket on, making you know what I'm talking about. But Kat Williams was up there and he was like, yeah, smoke this shit. This shit's called death. Like his buddy trying to convince him to smoke something called death. Stay away from that stuff, okay?

Have some respect for the plant. Have some respect for the plant. Okay? There's this shit called crumble, shatter. Anything that sounds like crumble or shatter? Like, that's not, they're like, you go to a dispensary. You go to a dispensary and you're like,

what do they got? What do you got here? And they're like, oh, I got some sick crumble and some shatter and some waffle cone shatter and some THU that you can inject straight into your neck. I'm like, dude, I'm just looking for some GDP. Mega death. No, we don't have that. Would you like to suitcase some GDP? Like, when you go out west and you go to a fucking dispensary, just respect it. Don't take it lightly.

This is not something to take lightly. I bought some crumble one time and had never had crumb. before and they were like yeah just like a tiny pinch okay and I was like you had tiny pinch right yeah got it took like two tiny pinches right well I did not feel like I felt like I was on psilocyb Cubanzus okay what hell's going to just be careful with that fucking crumble when some guy with vans on in in in outside of LA at a dispenser he tells you if his crumble stuff's pretty good now like There's a reason he knows it's good.

Just believe him. So exotic shit, don't start with it. Don't take it lightly. So I said no sativa at night, okay? Hey, and on edibles, I know that it's on the box and not. You fuckers don't even read tweets, okay? How do I expect you to eat the, to read, read tweets like you read an edible description, okay? That's how you should read news and tweets.

but in case you don't read the side of an you know a wanna edible box they take some time so don't take you know 15 milligrams because you read on reddit that's a good high to start with if you've never had an edible don't do that I'd start with like five but like don't do it and then an hour later be like the shit doesn't even work, dude. I can remember in like 2013 when the edibles were starting to be a thing. Like it was more easy to get edibles. I was training in L.A. and I got one of these cookies and some guy in vans gave me a fucking this cookie and he's like, yeah, try some, but wait a while, bro. Like, well, you're going to want to wait a while after you try a little bit more. And I was like,

yeah, no big deal. I was up playing FIFA, bro. I played like three 90 minute FIFA games after eating half this fucking cookie. The minute I took the pitch for the fourth one, the lights were out, and panic just, just shot through me. Like, it hit me all at once. It took two hours.

So when you're eating an edible, take your time, dude. Take your time. As someone outside the duby space, all I hear from you people is that, oh, I took too much. I didn't feel it,

So then I did some more. That's not all you here. Who are you talking to? And then it knocked me over. Who are you talking to? Like all of you people. Who are you talking to? I never say that about myself.

Oh, right. No, no, no. Not you. Not you. I'm talking to the people. So maybe some more people. You're saying, you're talking to people. It's an age-old story.

Okay, but you're talking to people at dinner parties that weren't listening to a podcast that was looking out for him on 7-1. That's right. I'm looking out for the soccer moms here, dude. No, that's right. Okay. Don't be taking, you know, when you get to book club, and you wonder why you can't remember what the book is.

It's because you took twice the dosage because you got impatient. Don't just fucking sit there for a second. And if you don't get some people metabolize it differently, you might not feel anything. You might take 10 milligrams and not feel anything. I was that guy at one point where I was trying to figure out the dosage. You know, you don't just guzzle a bottle of jack, do you? Well, the difference here is you'll wake up.

It's just not going to be fun for a little. bit. So just like don't just take your time. Don't argue with a spouse or try to make sense of something on an edible. Don't like it might give you the confidence to think that you're making sense, but you're not. Don't try to make sense of something. Okay. Not if you eat a big edible and something serious comes up. Just be like, hey, maybe not right now. You know, like if it's nine o'clock. Fire. Well, not a fire. I mean, I think I think you'd be fine getting out of the house, but I'm talking about like hey big like hey where do we want to send her kid to school next next year and she doesn't know that you took a you know 30 40 milligrams of of something of megadeth of mega death of megalith no it

wasn't a gelato 41 was the only strain i've mentioned or cherry mystery um big papa yeah like you don't you don't want to you don't want to try to to wrestle that that that that crisis at nine o'clock you don't want to do the pros and cons of like public and private at nine o'clock you know what I'm saying you don't want to make you don't want to you don't want to look over the Kelly blue book on the minivan that you're talking about buying at nine o'clock on an edible just pass those up like you live you live to fight another day you don't want to try to figure out if you're o three excursion is green or tan if you're on the fucking excursion is green dude it's a tan excursion it's like the blue dress we'll post it on I got a 2003 excursion recently and

Of course, you know, in spirit of what the other real estate agent told you, instead of like, hey man, nice excursion, you were like, it's not the color that you said it was. It's like a sick friend. Congrats on the excursion, bud. Yeah, avoid loading up on the edibles on a plane. Like, just work yourself into it. Get a fanny pack.

That's a big one. When it comes to this stuff, they're accessories, and you'll learn about accessories. Most of you've been smoking anyways. What the fuck? I'm not telling you anything you don't know, but these are my tips, yeah. Get a bedside fan, vape pens,

they can set off smoke alarms. You only get one trip from the fire department where you can use the, hey, I was doing this to look out for the kids. Like, you know, shit, some kids don't even get this at their birthday party. You got it on a Tuesday afternoon. Second visit at CPS.

No, no, no, no, no, because it was just a malfunction. Ordering Grubhub at night, great move. Grubhub at night, order it for the morning. You're going to be hungry at midnight. Order your breakfast before you wake up, and then you don't have to worry about it. It's a hack.

All these other, like, fucking straight-edge guys are going to be fumbling through their fridge for some fucking Greek yogurt and then half a banana. And I'm going to have, like, this cuisine waiting on my doorstep when I wake up. I like to lay out the bacon strips on my forming grill. This isn't going to be for you. And I put it at the foot of my bed

on a timer. Got it. So then when I wake up, I wake up to crispy sizzling bacon, the smell of bacon. What's better than that? Or a fire. And you're worried about the guys who are stoned.

You just admitted to leaving like the oven on all night. Did you not? If you know, you know. Okay. And then lastly, the hottest tip I have, if you get stoned before a nap, order Grubhub.

You're going to wake up. There's a theme. So hungry, dude. You're going to wake up so. So hungry, you're going to need it. It's going to be the boost right out of bed. Order a meal to show up to your door the same time the alarm goes off. Treat yourself.

So I have a serious question. Yeah. So the munchies is what we've been told about in popular culture. It's a real thing. It's not as like, it's not as like, it's not as, um, crippling as they make it seem all the time. It's just don't start. My, oh yeah, my biggest tip, I've given this one out here before.

Don't get high in the kitchen. Would you line up? You hear what I said. I'm going to say it again, don't get high in the kitchen. Would you line up before a session a bunch of kale chips, something a little healthier? Something to satiate you? Yeah, something that's going to satiate yourself. Something that's going to satiety.

But something that might also might not be so bad for you. Yeah, sure. Yeah, I've tried to employ that strategy before. I've seen you, for instance, just hand a bunch of spinach and throw it into your mouth. But I've been doing that since I was a kid. So I wasn't stone. But I'm just saying if you were. Sure, yeah, yeah, yeah.

And win for you. Listen, here, I'm a really healthy eater for the most part. I wake up sometimes and look in the mirror. I'm like, dude, you don't work out a lot. What's going on there? You know what I mean? Loud and clear. Yeah, I eat healthy, dude.

Okay? So you can enjoy this plant and not be like the guy on the couch. Would you buy real estate from somebody who did marijuana drugs? Oh, absolutely. I buy real estate from somebody who guzzles white, wine, which is poison. Not anymore. But Houston goes a white wine. Unless there's somebody I don't know about it.

Yeah, way back. But here's what needs to happen. I'm going to finish with this on the whole pot thing and we're get on with it. We got a mailbag and stuff coming up. And we also have talked about a lot of the good news in the sports world. The new law doesn't go far enough to help like individuals who were punished under the state's old system of criminalization. So like there are still thousands of Virginians and I don't have the exact figure because Lord knows I don't want to make news for smoking a joint and then quoting incorrect figures on a podcast. But there are thousands of Virginians who have been charged and jailed over the past four decades for the very marijuana

related offenses that are now like legal and decriminalized what I'm doing right now. And so I don't I don't do this without that thought in the back of my head. And I don't think anybody should look at yesterday, your yesterday, our today, as like an absolute victory because it's not. There's still a lot of people that are getting entangled with that stuff and some of the bogus laws that we've had the past 40, 50 years in this state. So, like, sealing records is good, for instance, but what we need is, like, totally expunging people's offenses,

you know, because they're talking about 2025 being the time that most of these records are going to get sealed by, in the meantime people are getting denied housing you know higher education etc etc and so like if we're going to be doing the petition thing until then they really need to make sure that that process of sealing is expedited and it's really easy to do

it can't be this bureaucratic bullshit that drives people away from accessing the you know the opportunity to send in a petition and if we're being honest the new law kind of falls short when it comes to giving people relief who are currently serving jail or prison sentences. And I think Ralph knows that, Northam, our guy, you know,

like this is a step in the right direction, but it's not the whole shebang. And it's not the most important part. And I think, like, in the same vein, and they've done this in other places of the country, if you think about it as Virginia, like builds up this retail complex that's going to come out in 2024, right?

Like, that's where we get brick and mortar, like bud shops, okay? As that builds out, we need to give people who have been previously encumbered with like a record because of this stuff, the first crack at it when it comes to applications. And they've done that in other areas of the country. And I think it's good. And oftentimes it's been exponentially more people of color because of the way that we police their communities and prosecuted those crimes when the usage rate is the exact same. So I think number one, it's a good thing. Number two, it could be a lot better.

And number three, I can do a podcast stone. I can attest to that. Okay. Humility break. Real quick one, because we got to get to the good news and then get Dr. Fax in for a mailbag. I wasn't a great tackler. I was more disruptive.

Wow. Yeah, yeah. You know, like I would come in there just out of control. Agreed. You know, like just a mad dog and a meathouse. A big jump on top of the pile guy. Well, that's a bit. Again, we just...

There are some times. There were times, but part of being a tone setter defensively is actually finishing plays and jumping on piles at times. And later in my career, me jumping on a pile, it was more of a thud, not like a bound. And I stopped looking like a flying squirrel and more like a fucking dead body, you know? So yeah, jumping on a pile.

But what I meant to say was I was a poor tackler. You weren't great at breaking down. No, I never broke down. I just go in there and choose aside and just try to... Well, no, I tried to keep my head out of it. That was one thing. It was like, listen, early in my career, I was a little stupid with that stuff. Later in my career, I tried to keep my head up a little bit more.

But I just wasn't a great tackler. You know, my hair is thinning. It's thinning more than you think. Sometimes I've got to wear a hat in stories because the stories really pick up your... You got anything you want to rag on yourself about because you're kind of letting me go a little bit here. I'll piggyback

I've taken ProPesia more than half my life That's getting on a long time now Fucking A dude You're like almost 40 if we're being real Bro Kingston It's his fault Did your thing work? Propetia

Thing work Oh that thing? Proofs in the pudding Father of a daughter Yeah that's enough ragging on ourselves Like people like You know It's not like we win the fucking Super Bowl

We just somebody paid us So we just got a call. The bat phone lit up. Our crunchy ass uncle is calling in from vacay. Cowboy Reed. He's checking on Taylor. He's making sure, you know, the train is moving. Cowboy Reed, what's going on?

We stop at a dog park. We're leaving the dog park. Car pulls up and the stereos are bumping, loud stereos. You can hear it all throughout the parking lot.

The voices that are coming from these stereos are Chris and making voices. Yes. And then I hear myself talk about the Bear Lake and the milkshakes. We had down there. Black Bear Res. and the dog yeah that's right blackberry blackberry raspberry and so the guy gets out of the car he's walking his dog over to the dog park and i say excuse me can help it over here you're listening to uh greenlight with chris long um are you a big fan and he's like dude i'm a huge fan i love chris making they're both hilarious have a good time and i was like oh well we appreciate you listening thank you very much so crazy dude he said we did you explain that you were the the blackberry raspberry guy yeah yeah yeah he well he had just listened to that part and he was like i love that it making uh let us into the you know how he how he picks his hello cities and he's like i like to know how that's done so shout out to dave in nashville how about that Dave big shout out to

Shout out Blue Wire. And, hey, have a great rest of the day, fellas. Hey, Reed, you forgot the shout-out win with your crunchy ass. See you. Cowboy. Let's go good news. Great news. Mississippi State has won the college baseball national chain chip.

Hell yeah. College World Series out there in Bromaha, Nebraska, middle of America. You might have. Omaha, did you realize after a while what I've been doing the last four to six weeks? I read my mentions, bro. Yeah, I know. Somebody snitched, and now you know it's the counting crows, but you could have gone until like August and everything after,

and you wouldn't have even known. But didn't I try to, I tried to then make it a, joke I never really materialized. No, I did not know what you were doing. Which is a cool thing when I get you on one of those. But Mississippi stays want a national title. Just about a month after Ole Miss got off the Schneid. So now there are only two Power 5 schools who have never won a team national championship.

And those two schools are Kansas State and Virginia Tech. Oh. Hmm. You know, when I saw that, that Kairon the other night on the TV, I gobbled it up. Gobble, gobble, gobble. That's good.

On multiple levels. Look at how far you've come with Kiron. Yeah. Did you see that tweet I did with the two logos? Oh, dude, I was in the meme workshop when I saw you drop that. And it was like that fucking turkey knew what we were talking about. The face on that turkey. Look at him.

He's like, fuck. Did Mississippi State just win a national title in something? Now it's just us and the team in the little apple. El Roberson. If L. Roberson and Darren Sproles couldn't do it, it's not, I don't know if it's happening. Do you see the Backstreet Boys thing the other day? No.

A bunch of those kids out there lip syncing into like the Backstreet Boys down there in the little apple? It'll happen, man. Tracking Field or some such shit. Listen, I was thinking about donating a ton of money to Kansas State, dude. Yes. Let's just slide that win bet money on over to the K-State. athletic department.

Just give it right to the Wildcats. And then there was one. I would love nothing more. And by the way, I should say this, one of our loyal listeners here, and I got to find his name to give him the credit he so deserves. Danny Sites, thank you very much on Twitter.com. D.Sight 73. K-State has several national crop judging championships.

And I think those should count. L.O.L. Corn. Sure. Only like three schools probably have a team, but still counts. Tomatoes. This is convincing if it's satire, I believe it. Oh, I believe it.

I think tech. So I think technically, I think Virginia Tech is the only team. Unfortunately, I believe they do have a bass fishing champion. Oh, fuck. You know. In their ranks. I mean, no offense to bass fish your men industry. Okay.

But they're stocking your shit. They're just stocking it. Yeah. Okay. No Jimmy Houston's down there in black. Blacksburg, okay? You can say that again. No, Jimmy Houston's down there in Blacksburg, okay?

Ofer. Ofer for the Hokies. So I love that, man. There's nothing I don't love about that. And congratulations to Fletcher Cox. Now you can feel what it feels like to have a national championship at your school. You know, when you win your 237th,

then you can really feel what it feels like to be a Virginia Cavalier. Now I went to school for academics, as you know, Chris. Yes, you did. So I can respect Vanderbilt. But boy, howdy. Is that baseball program annoying as hell, especially you might not know the,

the Vandy Whistler. He whistles throughout the games. I was reading tweets about him. What a jerk. Yeah. Jerk store. He's a jerk, huh? Yeah, big jerk.

So kudos to the Bulldogs for putting the Commodores out of their misery last night in convincing fashion. More good news. Hardwood. Phoenix Suns are going to the NBA finals. We need like a sneaker squeaking, you know, Sounder. CP3.

C3, 3, oh. Hey, dude, I'm so happy for CP3, and he bawled out. Like, I don't know how many points

he scored in the second half, but like... 31. Yeah, so it was just a major validation moment as if he needed one. I'm no basketball historian, but one of the best point guards

ever play the game, you know, on one hand probably, right? Point God. Am I off here? He's on one hand? I'm not, and I've said it here.

You're afraid to give the take, too, because you know these NBA, motherfuckers. Well, no, I just don't, NBA Twitter is they know all the war and analytics. And I just feel like there's not many dudes that have ever run point that are as respected. Sorry, Bucky Cousins.

I guess you don't think so. I just, Chris Paul. I don't love CP3. Oh, I love CP3. Magic Johnson, Oscar Robertson, Isaiah Thomas. He's in the combo. I'm still on one hand, dude. Yeah, okay.

Steph Curry. Yeah? Jason Kidd, Steve Nash. He might be on the six finger. I was born with six fingers. I was born with six fingers on one of my hands. I know that. I know that much. So, yeah, he might be on my, he might be a left hand discussion thing here. But like he's in that five to six range. I don't know. If only I got into one of those bleacher report click-throughs.

If we just booked Woge today, we didn't have so much good news. And we booked Woge again. I could ask him. But yeah, CP3, happy for him. And man, the highlight of the night, the low light of the night, just the like most what the fuck moment of the night was Pat Beverly shoving the ever-loving fuck out of CP3. I'm so glad his neck is okay, dude. That's all I could think about is that that would really hurt at our age.

And by our age, I mean your age, my age, Chris Paul's age. I was thinking about all those guys in there into couch. You know, I was thinking about Kamiski and all those guys. you know, just standing there like nothing happened. And, uh, CP3, I don't know what he said to Pat Beverly, but I said this last night, I tweeted it last night. I know you're not going to know what I'm talking about. Do you remember the game, Grand Theft Auto?

Yes. Okay. Dr. Fax probably remembers that he's in the other room. But I used to love walking around with this motherfucker named Trevor. I mean, he looked, Google Trevor GTA. You might know who I'm talking about. Legitimately, when I saw him push Chris Paul last night, almost midnight, laying in bed.

I was like, that is just how I used to push people in the street with Trevor on Grand Theft Auto when I was tired of the objective or I had forgotten what I was supposed to do and I found myself in another part of town. I'd just try to get some stars. And it's like what Patrick Beverly was doing last night. It was incredible the way he pushed him. Pushed him. Jerk!

You know the people in the street? Like the Grand Theft Auto. Like, what did you, what did it pay to get a, to get a Grand Theft Auto voiceover, IMDB credit? Anyways, Patrick Beverly, more like Patrick Trevorly. Nice. Yeah, that's what somebody in my mention said. I thought it was genius. Hey, you're older than Chris Paul, comments?

That's wild, dude. If I met Chris Paul, I'd be like, hey, OG. Hello, sir. Yeah, just because I feel like he's been in the game so long, dude. He's been in the game so long. He's been relevant so long. 30 and 3 is 33 and number 6th, it's 39. You're 39 days older than Chris Paul.

Another thing, Paul George, I respect that. I respect his effort. I respect him trying valiantly to be the one. You know, like I'm not going to judge him on this series in any negative way, even with the two free throws. Because I think like it does take a lot of mental toughness

to go through what he went through in the last year, including the playoffs. And I wasn't one that was believing in him as being a Batman, but maybe he's still got a little Batman in him in the right situation. So, you know, Paul George, a little redemption,

even in a loss. There last night are tonight, Hawks or Bucks. Oh. In Milwaukee, series of two, two. I hate what I saw happen to Yonis the other night. He's legitimately one of the best athletes

on the planet because when your knee bends like that and structurally things stay like good, you're like Gumby, dude. But I think the Hawks, win that game. I just feel like maybe we think too much of the bucks, even though we make fun of them all the time, but we still feel like, we still

think they're like some amazing team, and I just don't, I don't feel that way about them. NC2A. Yeah. Name and likeness. Name, image, likeness. You didn't want to talk about Steve Bomber? We can talk about Steve Ballmer. Oh my God, dude. More like Steve

Balsmer. I don't, it's never, I'm sure nobody tweeted that last night at any point. I hadn't seen it. All right. Let's talk about the NCAA for sure. Name, image, likeness, student athletes can now profit off those things. Huge. It's a step in the right direction. It was inevitable. We knew it was coming. And I think today's been fun, like more than anything, seeing your year yesterday are today,

seeing like deals come in, like the ad that we're running on the show, where kids can solicit, you know, brand partnerships or opportunities that are going to feed them and, you know, pay the bills. We're paying a college athlete. Yeah, I mean, and it's all good, dude. I don't know if anybody noticed, but amateurism has been kind of over.

It's just now we're chipping away at the core and trying to get to a place where these guys are really kind of profiting like citizens and any other business scenario. But, like, this is cool. If anybody was afraid of this, it doesn't look like the boogeyman that you were describing it to be. There will be snags.

There will be situations where you're like, damn, somebody took advantage of the system. We don't have to know all the answers right now. But I can tell you that I smile when I see Deerick King and Bubba Bolden down there at Miami getting paid 20K, a pop by college hunks, which sounded ridiculous until I saw that that's a moving company. You know, you talk about somebody like Reggie Bush who played,

might have made between $4 and $6 million is something I read today. I don't know if that's true, but I know it would be seven figures. And he didn't, he not only missed out on that, they took away his Heism, so people are talking about over 300K he didn't have his heisman, but could have made seeing today, I feel like he could have made, yeah,

$5 million at USC. Hey, Cuzz, Little John's sandwich shop. They had a Chris Long sandwich. That was for the love of the game for me, dude. How many chickens did you see from that? I saw no chickens, but that was for the love of the game. if I tell you you're seeing 75 cents on a chicken. I'm happy with that.

I'm happy with that. You know, like, and I was in a position as a kid with, you know, it came from some money. Like, I didn't have to worry about like profiting off my name,

image and likeness. So yeah, the way I look at like what I would have done in college would be maybe different than one of my teammates that needs to fucking, you know, pay the bills. And maybe he's responsible for some other shit too

that I've never even thought about being responsible for. So when I see those guys getting 20, or when I see, you know, Jordan Bowhannon, who's doing, you know, Iowa Hoops, Star, would you consider him a Star? Sure. Yeah, Star, Local Fireworks appearance this weekend. So, like, there's a little bit of something for everybody. Take back the Star.

Yeah. Right. Okay. I wasn't going there, but you're an asshole. But plans to partner with cryotherapy company, monetizes podcasts. And the coolest part, what I. I got to read was five Jackson State players signing with, and I believe the defensive end was the first dude to actually sign a deal with somebody at like midnight two nights ago, your two nights

ago. This cat signed with a grooming company, a black-owned grooming product company. And that's like, that's wild. It's really cool. You know, it's really cool that five Jackson State kids can profit off this. And it's cool that the Marshall alignment I read about Will Almer who has been playing guitar in Huntington, like doing gigs under an alias, lucky Bill to play his gigs. Now he can not only, you know, use his real name, but he can make money. You talked about, hey, smaller sports aren't going to get the love like football list. Well, I see the ball getting spread out today.

You know, I see, you know, the volleyball twins, Hannah, Haley, Cavender. I don't know if I'm saying that correctly. I'm probably not. So what you're seeing. Checkpoint. Yeah, fucking Bo Nix is doing a sweet tea ad day one. So it's not just good. It's not just like, this is America, how it's supposed to be.

We're still not there yet, but this feels more like it. But you're also going to get good content out of this. Like we can talk about the bad ads. We can talk about the awkward spots. We can talk about like some viral ad that a kid made money on. Then I don't have to feel bad making fun of them. Or a wide receiver touting a podcast for a. instance. Hi, this is Rashan Henry Wairozee for your Virginia Cavaliers. The only thing I love more than

catching football is catching a green light pot. Wahoo-Wat, happy in I-L-A. I'm curious if we're going to see some of these ads run in the draft next year. It's a really good, yeah, really good question. Taylor was saying that maybe in the draft next year, you know, you'll see a player who's getting picked or getting ready to get picked, and you're also going to be, like, solicited on behalf of their brand. Is that where you're going with that? Yeah, yeah. They're showing their draft highlights

right before they get picked and maybe there's an ad for... Carl's Jr. Greenlight pod. Greenlight pod. Yeah, dude, we need to go find the fucking best players. Or maybe they go to the NASCAR route and wear a bunch of patches on their jacket

walking up to the stage. I'm telling you, everything's going to be like European basketball and it's not going to be as bad as you all think. It's just going to be like European basketball. Like people are going to profit. Yes, dude. And so I think it's a good thing. And the question that was circulating this week was who in history would make the most money

if you had this law into effect during their playing tenure collegiately? Tim Tebow. Mega churches. Mega churches. Tim Tebow. Fucking Tim Tebow would crush it. But I actually have another one, Johnny Mansell. I feel like the oil

the oil money contingency and I feel like yeah mega churches would still have Johnny Mansell dude that's the thing about megachurches bow necks mega churches mega churches are like in a lot of ways anything goes which is kind of the most idealistically Christian thing

most of all time but Johnny Manzell yeah Johnny Manzell think about he starred in the beginning of like the social media era when it was really starting to be a big thing he had he was like a college player that Drake liked, like, you know, your favorite rapper liked. Everybody knew who he was.

He had a moniker. He had a money sign thing. I mean, and oil, dude. Oil. Straight up electric college athletes, though. I think, I think Dion Sanders, Bo Jackson. Doesn't hurt that they were two-way dudes. No, I know, no, for sure.

But I'm just thinking about the time and the place. And those guys are probably getting paid anyways if we're being, like, think about it. Like, the things you could do. without camera phones and without like paperless transactions back in the day. Oh, you wouldn't need a megachurch. Hey, also happy Bobby Benia Day. He gets paid like $2 million every year on this date. Is that it?

Yeah, until 2035. Good for him. It's good to see somebody win. Anyways, let's get Dr. Fax in here and do a little mailbag and keep this train rolling. We've had a lot of great stuff. talk about gambling, 7-1, athletes getting paid. So I think we need to take it down a notch real quick. Oh, you got, yeah, yeah, yeah, we got shit on ourself over time.

What do you think? Patagonia Blue Polo. It's my favorite shirt. I wear it in every setting until now because I get nervous on a podcast and I sweat. I've sweat through my favorite shirt. And more than that, it stinks. luckily I'm now in this

dry fit wind bet polo brought to me by Nike breathable as fuck it's like like I drop some water on it and it just whisked right away can I say something

sometimes they yell at the dog oh yeah don't like doing that sometimes I feel but if I'm being honest my wife yells at the dog too we're like a dog yelling family dude hey, as long as your hands off, I think.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He was chewing glass the other morning, so I had to go hands on there. Yeah. That was for the good of the dog. Let's get Big Neda in here. Let's reintroduce our guy. Okay, so Dr. Fax is here.

Nate Collins, Nate Collins, five years in the NFL, six years? Five. Six, five years in the NFL. He goes five, you go six again. Well, no, I was trying to round up. I was running up for my dude, man. This is like my little brother, dude.

I showed him on his visit. So Nate Collins has been, Dr. Faxx has been in studio before. If you're one of the OG passengers on this train, do, do. You've heard him. You've heard from him. But I just wanted to reacquaint everybody. I'm trying to get Dr. Fax back in the chair a little bit more. Not the pandys over.

Fax, how you doing? I'm doing well, man. Appreciate you having me back on the show. tell them which teams you played for tell them about yourself like do the elevator you know like the new for the new blue wire maybe like what we mean to you

personally so um great i um i make chris in oh six um i attended the university of virginia from oh six to 2010 Algro's last four years um were my four years I was the only person in my class

that didn't red shirt So I was kind of adopted by Chris, I guess, in the D-Ly room. Yeah. Was a big brother. It was a big help. My first year, especially with... That was quite the commitment. It was a, you know, some adoptions are easy.

Some are more challenging. Some adoptions, some adoptions end up in a fight. Yeah, they start in a fight. In a fucking... So when we tried to haze these guys, which hazing used to be a thing, we told this story. Chris, Chris wanted to be. be kind of like the big bully, the scary guy of the team.

That's not true. Look at me. The older guys had an idea to get the boxing gloves out. And originally, they said they wanted two freshmen to box against each other. And one of the freshmen yells out, well, why don't one of you guys box us? And as soon as that was said, Chris grabs the gloves and is like, who's going to box me? and immediately when he said it, I was like, I'll box you.

Yeah, I was like, man, I just fucking adopted you. Now you want to box me? I'm like, you're just supposed to be, I'm taking care of. You're under my wing, man. You're also big, dude. Like, I was looking for maybe one of the linebackers, maybe. So as soon as I said that, there was no turning back. And before we knew it, probably 30 seconds, there was a circle formed.

And gloves were passed and put on. and I think me and Chris There were the light gloves though Because remember They're a little I don't know what ounce you used For real regulation Well they were light enough

That someone could have got seriously hurt Like thinking about it now It was a fight, dude But anyways we came out of it better And Nate did draw blood But I hit you with some ridiculous body shots So we traded blows I don't know what the decision was

It was I think it was a draw I'll call it a draw I'll call it a draw, dude. I got, hey, fucking, no shame and getting beat up by your adopted son or just, you know, I tell you after I said I would box you, I immediately, like, wanted to back out. Well, you think I wanted to be there, dude? I was like, fuck, dude. By the time you're a senior, you're not supposed to have to do shit like this.

I thought we were just going to, like, lightly haze these cats and send them back to the holiday end. And now, yeah. What a crazy night that was. But look, after feeling all good, like, yeah, I just box Chris Long, yada, yada. I had to walk back to the Omni and my boxers. Oh, yeah, because you guys had stolen all our clothes. We kept the clothes. And then all of our sneakers were tied together, like about 50 pairs of shoes tied together in a...

That was another time, dude. We're just not that immature anymore. I'm sure I speak for all the seniors that were there in 2007. Fourth and fifth years. Fourth and fifth years, whatever you want to say. Mr. Jefferson said that learning never ends. He said a lot of other stuff that you might not agree. with as well so you know hey whatever float your boat I just don't kind of hitch my wagon old

mr. Jefferson there hey tell him the Christmas tree story to to get them warmed up here for the mailbag thing okay like this is what Jacksonville this is what year in the league for you this is the end of my first year I get picked up off the practice squad of the New York Giants and I go to Jacksonville about the first week of December and I remember um just being in Florida and not really feeling like it was holiday time and and me wanting to get a Christmas tree because Florida every like every day it's it's hot and it doesn't feel like winter or Christmas and I get this Christmas tree in my apartment I live on how big was the tree um eight foot I would say I would say six or seven not something is probably eight or nine feet no I know where the

story's going so it was like it was like a little bit taller to me so like it was probably like seven six or seven foot seven foot I would say and I always am a stickler I like real trees I don't like fake trees on Christmas I think you dude I think I like the real tree I like the pine smell get the little pines in the house make it feel like it's holiday Meg tried that fake tree shit in Philly because like kids or something yeah I had to put my foot down for the first time. So I get this tree and when it's time for me to take the tree down, I decide to put the tree in the trash you.

So this is, we're laughing because nobody was hurt. This is some Florida stuff too. Had it ended the way it could have. Oh my goodness. So instead of carrying the tree down via the elevator, you decided to shoot. it down how many stories down the trash 22 so hold on a second the thinking behind it was thinking behind it the needles they were so dry it was already making a mess so for me to put it on the elevator and drag it through the lobby

fire hazard it was going to be way worse yeah the friction yeah the fire could have there could have been a fire if he dragged it dude when i told the people of the building they were so upset hey listen you shouldn't have told the people in the building no there was a trail of needle From my door to the trash chute. Yeah, so the whole fucking, yeah, it's like... I tried to clean it up the best I could. I just, I've never been able to get over the visual of how long an eight-foot tree is suspended in that trash shoot just rotating. Like a big-ass drill.

No, but if there was a raccoon in that fucking... You should have seen me like stuffing it. How long does it take for a tree like that to fall down 22 stories? Bro, once it was in there, it sounded like it went quick. I was worried about it too. It took a while. It took me about 15 minutes to get it fully like in the shoot. And once I got it like the last, the bottom.

I had time to think about it. Yeah, I was worried the same thing. I was like, this thing's not going to go all the way down. But it went all the way down. Interesting. Yeah. Interesting. Okay.

Nate, we got a mailbag. Okay. We want Dr. Fax to come in and join us more. Now the Pandys over. Heywood on Twitter. Does Chris and Macon ever fight? In a word, fuck yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. I can see you guys fighting about lunch a lot. No, we just, like, the thing is, it's kind of like you know somebody long enough. You're already both invested heavily in each other's lives. And it's, you're not worried about fucking bitching at each other. We bitch at each other. We do. Right.

I definitely see you and talk to you more than anyone else in my life outside my family. And our personalities, there's something about our personalities that both works and very much does not work, dude. Just like. It can often manifest itself over text message where just I can't, I can't figure it out. He's really bad at sounding like he doesn't hate your guts on the phone. So if you ever have to discuss something, you're getting better about it. But yeah, like there are some fights, dude. I'm trying.

I really have been working hard. on listening to how it's sounding coming out because I really am at least in this space trying to be helpful yeah and I'm working on a bunch of things in my personal life as well it's so here's an example of one of our fights we'll be sitting here doing the pod something won't be working and you'll say something to the effect of really dude and I'll be like what like enough like I'm not doing anything this is not a bit this is just me and then you'll be like how about we take five alright let's take five that sounds great

how about ten you want to take ten let's take ten you never said that that's fucking one of the kids say it's cap that's cap that's cap mate and that's our that's our fight though that's the extent no he never said it's the dead serious true but he never says let's take ten this sounds like some fucking movie

okay that's fair that's fair as fuck if you say let's take five I'll say okay let's take five you know because you are you are the boss Sometimes it's counterintuitive because you're you're smarter than me, but I have to do a little bit because it's not your primary job like you're showing up after a day of you know slinging MLS. Like I there's a lot of coordinating that my pinball brain has to do. And so at times, you know, like when I'm trying to fucking, you know, like I'm the guy who's struggling to stay afloat, can't swim well, you know, instead of like lifeboat, Megan's like, what the fuck are you? doing? That's the kind of thing. Sometimes then I react kind of negatively. And I'm confrontational.

So it sucks, dude. And I don't like fighting with you. We're not fighting now, are we? No, no. Now? No. Oh, heavens no. We don't need to fight. And fights are few and far, far and few? Damn.

Few and far in between. And it's a pleasure being around you. The answer is rarely do we fight. But fuck, yeah. That's kind of how it goes. Um, this is from Kevin Jones. Big shout out to Kevin Jones. KJ.

Blue Wire. He's a, he's a great dude. Okay, I'm not just saying this. He's cool as hell. He's, a lot of the reason that we signed on with Blue Wire is because they didn't seem like

the type that try to dictate the content that you put out. And Kevin was one. Obviously. Yeah, I mean, so like, yeah, Kev, this is. Sorry.

Hello. Hello, Kevin Jones. But, hey, we will answer your mail bag, brother. Um, Kev, what was your mailback question? Is the ice cream truck, the original food truck, and which restaurant would kill it as a food truck? And Kevin, the answer is yes on both of those.

I say no, it was not the first original food truck. Kevin's not going to like that. I don't think because I think Kevin thinks it might be the, but I do agree. Like, I never thought about it that way, but probably. I think it was a sandwich truck from Rhode Island. Yeah. Um, and then after that, they had things called roach carts that were for the army and construction sites. Damn, facts.

Damn, facts. So, well, can we get some dates on that fax? Um, because the ice cream trucks have been around since, uh, Jesus was a baby almost. 1872, Providence, Rhode Island. Providence. Damn, dude, you're, you're, that's why they call you facts. There was a good, um. That was a good poll.

That was just off the dome. You know the girl, Sophia V from a modern family? Sophia Vergara. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's a Netflix movie called Chef, and it's about a food truck. And I recently watched it. And they had some facts in there about food trucks. Okay, that's tight.

Yeah, the second part would be, obviously, Ruth Chris Park City. Ruth Chris Park City. If they had a Ruth, Ruth's, Ruth's Chris, food truck, I would call it right into our parking lot right now. So listen, Ruth's Chris was my favorite restaurant ever in Jacksonville. I lived literally walking distance from it, would go to it, get it three times a week. I recently had it in downtown Atlanta and it was not up to par. Cheeks. Like, and I'm sorry to say it and it was just like, I'm devastated to even say it.

No, you just need to, you need, it's like, has that happened to you? But has that happened to you, like, any of your favorite restaurant, you go to it somewhere else? Yeah, Popeyes, dude. Like, Popeyes, the variability in Popeyes is, are, like, ridiculous.

And I used to eat Popeyes like it was. I tell everyone, just in general, all the fast food in Canada is way better than fast food here. Damn. Like, the food tastes like a lot, like the burgers and McDonald's there, it takes a lot fresher. I don't know if I'm just saying that,

but it did to me. And I don't know. Well, the answer is Ruth, Park City. So if you ever get a chance to be up in Park City, facts, you should definitely hit that one up. Is that Utah?

That's Utah. Nice. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's one of the places I want to go. Facts. Facts. With the NIL ruling, what former NCAA basketball players

jerseys would you buy? That's from Brendan Duball. Well, Brendan, Big Country is whose jersey I would buy. Great answer. Yeah. Polk. He was a poke.

Yeah, he was a poke. and it was like one of the first Final Fours I ever remembered watching as like a young basketball fan like that one's it was so colorful man all the schools were like super cool to watch on TV it was like Arkansas UCLA Oklahoma State and who am I forgetting maybe UNC in that particular one I think maybe yeah Corliss Williams yeah yep yep yep and big country on my TV screen look like an alien and I just think the orange and the black would look tight I I would rock the fuck out of even today as a 36 year old A big country jersey I think for me I would want a Julius Pepper as you want to see jersey Oh that's kind of tight except it's like sacrilege but it's so tight too yeah I think I won't want one of those

I'll go chalky just because it's everybody's favorite jersey guy but a grandma You and LV oh that's super cool that's I don't think that that's terribly chalky do I think that's got sex appeal there, dude. A cat I loved in college. Biggest love college, hate pro disparity. You don't want to say hate. Biggest love college, not so much love pro disparity for me. Yeah.

Carmelo Anthony, Syracuse University. You hated him in college, love him in the pros? Ah, flip. When he won that Natty for Q's in 2004, I was like, okay. Yeah, I was so lit. This guy. Being from New York and like watching that. and like that whole thing just being televised and pumped up that he started making money and making

hate him yeah why why is that typical real estate agent shit but they want to make all the money carmelo anthony wants to make some money too uh do you see what he did in that ugly ass syracuse uniform with the the outer space hoop around the basketball do you remember that with the weird ass the sketchers ass that that is on the short yeah but you said jersey and it's not on the Sorry, I'm just talking about their uniform. This is the type of shit I'm talking about. Two joints deep. Dog, I'm trying to be helpful.

No, I appreciate it. Show me the picture. Let me see. I'm trying to get you the S on the short. Maclamere is a good jersey. You know what? He's a coach now, right? Yeah, it's unfair.

You know what, you're right. It's unfair. The jerseys were kind of tight. The shorts were incredibly cheeks. I'm with you. I'm with you. Okay. Pistol Pete LSU anybody?

Oh, yeah, for sure. That'd be tight. I went to George, there was a George, George Mason guy that looked like he was just a truck driver, if I'm remembering correctly. Remember him? Yeah. I looked him up recently because I was like, yo, that guy was like a football player.

Like he was a grown man, dude. And he made a run in, I want to say like 2006. Does that sound right? Oh yeah, the Final Four run. Yeah, the Final Four run. And this kid was like a grown man out there. I would love his jersey. What about UVA jersey, old UVA guy?

Who would you pick? Oh, Adam Hall for Travis Watson Sylvan Landisburg Majestic Map Why do you guys laugh at that? I want a majestic Or Will Harris

Will Harris I want a majestic map jersey That's a great answer And that would be an hand one Yeah that would be super tight Yeah Anyways can we tell the story About redacted and redacted

And the trip to Boston at 3 a yeah I know that story Can we tell that story real quick In the middle of the mailbag just because we're doing this today tell the story you tell it okay so i there was a guy and i'm gonna treat it like i'm telling taylor unfortunately you guys have heard the story but there was a guy i played college football with and uh he was prone to do impulsive shit like he's great dude he's just prone to do impulsive shit and he met this girl on facebook and had a like some

sort of a relationship with her own facebook they were more than friends they were north of friends And one night, he decided he wanted to go see her at three in the morning. In Boston. In Boston. He wasn't drunk. Okay? He drives to the bar. There's some younger players milling around.

Player number two is looking for a ride back to dorms. And player number one says, I got a better idea. I got a better idea. let's go see this girl I'm hanging out with and player number two says where and he goes just get in just get in just get in so he gets in obviously why would you not

and they pull out of Charlottesville and the guy falls asleep player two player two falls asleep player one's man in the wheel of the rig that's headed to Boston and player two wakes up and sees an exit for his house in New Jersey. And he says, what the fuck is going on?

He says, what's going on here? Oh, my God. I thought you said we're going to hang out with a girl that you're hanging out with. We are. We are. They go up to Boston the rest of the way. Player two is probably thinking maybe I could parlay something out of this. Maybe she's got friends, that sort of thing.

What are we going to do there? Are we partying? No, we're going to her swim meet. So player two is dragged to a swim meet in the middle of the day. They haven't slept other than the time that he was kidnapped from Charlottesville, Virginia, and driven 12 hours up to Boston. And player number one sees her at the end of the swim meet in the fans section. Okay?

Like where you meet the fans? And then he goes, okay, time to go home. And they drive back to Charlottesville. Of course, player number two is like, I've had. enough of this shit let me off at home i want my mom dude so uh he's dropped off in jersey and player number one comes back and tells me the story that night um so i don't know how we got there but that's the story i wanted told here um anyways how'd she do with the swim meet we we don't know that's the most fucked up thing about the whole thing he didn't even talk

about how she how she did as a swimmer no but like the The big part of the story was like him and the girl like really that that little fan meet was the only interaction that that was it dude. Like that was it. Like that was it dude. And player two like telling the story was just like for him at that point he was just like I thought this dude was gonna at least like get to chill with this girl like something and that was it.

I just want to see his face. He even pissed him off at that point. I just want to see his face as they like ducked under the rope in the fan section to go to the parking lot afterwards. I mean, like, incredible. Incredible. Incredible. Incredible simping.

That was the Simp Olympics, dude, that weekend. Anyways, best prank you ever devised but didn't go off or through with it. This is from B. Donnelly. Yeah, I would say the one thing that almost went off that didn't was James Laronitis. James Laronitis I had fucked with him I put a thousand crickets So 10,000 crickets in his car I've told this story too many times

Bubble wrapped it the whole nine yards But he was going to get me back In a really spectacular way We were going to play Patriots in London that year Game didn't go well But I do remember this I remember that when I found out what he was going to do I don't know if I would have

I don't know how it would have reacted He was going to be to I had a Mercedes SUV at the time leased and he was he had a shipping company ready to put it on a barge and bring it over to London and it was going to be on the practice field when we got there with a note that was like figure it out and at that point I would have taken it out of park and rolled it into the ocean there. Tim's yeah yeah yeah and just fucking and just fucking called State Farm, you know? And, you know, because that would have been the most brilliantly executed thing of all time

for you to get my car to London. And I probably, that would have taught me. That would have showed me, and I wouldn't prank people anymore, but I've never been taught my lesson. Cortland Finningan tried a few times. But, oh, okay, last one. Worst high panic attack. This is from our boy,

Kai. Kai sent like 36. Really good questions. I was like, Kai, I can't get to them all, brother. We need to fuck around to like hire Kai or something. And I don't know if I never told you this story about the Patriots the night I signed with the Patriots.

Never told you this story? So remember how that spot opened up. Like when I was talking to the Patriots I didn't think they had room for me. They had like Gibral Shear, Rob Nickovich, Chandler Jones, of course.

And I was like okay, I'm gonna be a fourth edge guy, which should have triggered something in my head that they're also gonna use these three a lot. But I had almost moved on, and then the Chandler Jones thing happened, where he got in some trouble there, I guess, with synthetic marijuana or something,

which is another reason we should be giving guys an opportunity to smoke the real stuff. So I sign with Patriots, like almost immediately once he's shipped out of there, they traded him or something to Arizona. that night I decided to celebrate with an edible, but it was one of the unmarked edibles. And I ended up having probably double what I'd usually have.

And I am having a great buzz until it hits me. I'm sitting there watching Sports Center and somebody's talking about Chandler Jones. And the beginning of the end was him using that synthetic marijuana. And so I'm sitting there thinking to myself, what if I end up having to go to the hospital all night because I'm too high? And I make Sports Center because the guy that was supposed to help replace Chandler Jones

is a drug addict too and I just start fucking panicking dude I'm just sitting there watching TV I got to turn the TV off I got to walk around I'm having one of those like you know like fuck dude what the fuck this never happens and I actually have to wake my pregnant wife up at 2 in the morning and tell her that I need her help

calming me down and I told her the reason why and I can only imagine she thought I was the biggest fucking idiot in the world. And that's the dumbest I've ever felt on a panic attack because the absolute irony of it was if I had drove myself to the hospital that night and this lasted for almost 90 minutes, I would have been one of the lamest names in sports history. Oh.

Think about it. We wouldn't be here right now. No, we wouldn't, dude. Win, bet, more like lose bet. More like, what did you say earlier? Nah. Yeah. I can't look at it.

Our brains are broken. We really left it out on the field today. Making feels exhausted. Have fun in Montana, pal. Yeah, Dr. Fax. Oh, nice. How long are you in Montana for? A while.

A while. A while. Oh. But we wanted to get Fax back in the building. And listen, we're really excited to have a little bit more firepower around here. And hey, congrats on the new deal, guys. Oh, thank you. We barely talked about it.

it today. Thank you. It's super awesome for you guys. Thank you. Um, Nate, make the last show in studio for a while. I'll see you on Zoom. Yeah, I'll be in here. You'll be in Big Sky. That's right. Joy yourself. You'll take care.
