Welcome to the Green Light podcast.
We're happy to have you.
It's Ryan Rosillo Day here at Greenlight.
To start the show, Chris and Macon do a little recap of what they've been watching,
some updates from the weekend,
and a congratulations to Jason Peters for signing with the Dallas Cowboys.
Chris Ryan and Macon talked to Harry Styles' Don't worry, Darlin drama.
And then they talk about what would happen in a hypothetical Macon v. Mark Zuckerberg fight
before jumping into college football from week one.
Does Clemson truly suck?
What we learned in the LSU versus FSU game?
Anthony Richardson,
Is he for real,
in Georgia, Oregon.
Then Ryan dives into a little life-advise
and a history lesson.
And after Ryan,
stick around for some college football superlatives,
we'll be back on Friday.
Chris Macon, Stanford Steve,
y'all enjoy.
Cowboy Reed.
Cowboy...
Chris and Macon.
Timmy Chilters posted again this morning.
Tyler Chilters posted again this morning on Instagram.
That means something's coming.
Something's coming.
I have no idea what, but I'm in support.
We also had another big announcement today from eastbound and down that that show will be back
2004.
So we have Tyler Childers with more new music.
We have Kenny fucking Powers in 2024.
Like what college football is back?
2004, that's like one 18th of our years.
It's like it's like thinking about away.
You know, when you finish a show, like I just finished severance.
Do you watch severance yet?
No, it was on in my house, though, so I know, I know what you're talking about it.
You're going to like it.
I'm not going to watch it.
Okay.
I don't like anything that's not real, you know.
The work version of you would like it.
Okay.
So, yeah.
So actually, like, if anybody out there has watched severance is great.
I love that show.
Kingston, you've watched it.
Hey, you want to know what I watched this summer?
But can I make a severance joke?
Yeah.
Yeah.
They used to take me in at halftime at the Edwards.
Jones Dome and they used to tell me about my Audi and then I'd run back out and play for the
Rams again. I don't know if he's talking about like belly button or the car brand. No, no, no, no.
You watch the show, watch the show. But it's like when they will pay off in like three months.
Yeah. When they tell when severance ended, me and Meg were like really into it. And, you know,
it's one of those things when they when they find out that production starts like in six months,
you know the show's going to be like it's at least a year out. Same thing.
with eastbound and down. You just have to forget about it. Okay, get excited today and then forget
it's coming out. And then one day you'll wake up in 2024 and you'll be like, fuck, dude, Kenny's
back. What kind of a belly button do you have? I have an Audi. You have an out? And I can make my
belly dance. How do I not know that you have an Audi? I can do a belly dance. That's the lead, dude.
It's not even the Audi. Wow. Like how far out are we talking? It doesn't actually go out of the
hole anymore, but when I was a kid, it was like a serious Audi. Wow. Yeah. That is
wild. Yeah, you want to see me belly dance
real quick? No, I'll do it. Okay.
This is fucking cool, read.
Ready? He's going to show us his calves
and next. You gotta go, no, there's nothing. Hey, don't
worry about that. Oh, my
goodness. But like, can't anybody
do that? Aren't you just breathing?
For the listeners, his body
is gyrating wildly in the
stomach. Like,
nice. That's fucking
rare people tell me, honestly.
Any of you guys do it?
Absolutely not. That was a
fairly impressive. Thank you. I'll try tonight. One more thing while we're on art.
I've got several more art things. You got some art things. Okay, cool. We'll just,
so one more thing for me while we're on art and feel free to fire away. I watched the
Game of Thrones prequel. I watched the first episode. Everybody told me like, man, it's really good.
Episode two, not so great. Episode one, like it's very good. And I got to tell you that that show is not
it's not doing it for me thank god dude it's it's like uh i respect the storyline and everything you's got to
understand there are game of thrones fans that are going to watch this like it's relevant in their lives
because they were attached to that other show and then there's people like me who are like fuck it's a
different show i know it's the same plot but you can't just roll the ball out there with a bunch of
like cheap sets and knockoff protagonists and sets the sets are pretty good sets are
cheeks. Really? Yeah.
You can't see the difference
in the sets? I guess the production
value isn't quite as I'm going to stick with it
for a little bit, but yeah, it's more for me, like the
fun of being back in that universe.
It's the plot. It doesn't do it for me as much
as though. I was
sitting there watching it the other night. They just went
a little heavy on the dick chops
and the... Dick chops.
Yeah, to cut some guys' dick off. That's what
that was in the beginning? Yeah, for sure.
Yeah, and then they did a
caesarian section just like
out in the open.
Okay.
Like we were, like I was watching a webcam of a C-section.
Okay.
In the end, though, brand,
brand wins.
Okay.
All right.
Yeah.
Spoiler alert.
Do you hate that shit?
Spoilers?
No, when people complain about spoilers on shows that are like 12 years old.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Fuck those people.
Go ahead.
Okay.
Here's what I'm most excited about watching.
Okay.
One is industry.
Is anybody watching industry?
No.
I've seen season.
Season one, I need to see season two.
Phenomenal.
Phenton, London.
Of course.
There's a lot of sex.
People smell like ass.
No.
They're fornicating anyways.
Reservation dogs.
Has anyone watched reservation dogs?
It's like reservoir dogs?
The title is a play on that.
Got it.
It's my man who did Jojo Rabbit.
Taika Watiti.
You got it.
Awesome.
Really?
Yeah.
About modern day folks.
London.
No, natives and Native Americans in Oklahoma.
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
That one's sick.
Okay.
Let me just run it.
Ryan Rosillo you there.
Let's run it.
Cowboy, I watched the staircase, the offer.
That's about the making of the godfather.
Yeah.
I watch gas lit.
That's about Watergate.
About Martha Mitchell, played by Julia Roberts.
Okay.
Who's America's sweetheart?
Is it Julia Roberts?
Well, I think it's Sandra Bullock.
You, yeah.
You, yeah.
You're a Sandra Bullock guy.
I think it's Sandra Bullock.
Okay.
That's not a bad call.
No, I really don't know who it is.
The Bear?
Did you watch The Bear?
It might be Sarah Palin.
Honestly, the way things are going.
She might be American's sweetheart.
And I wrapped those are.
Stacey Dash.
Our next guest.
Yeah.
Please welcome Stacey.
That's it.
Hey, and Cowboy Only Murders.
Only murders, which I must say,
I was just kind of getting through it there at the end.
but it's still lovely. It's lighthearted and lovely.
Oh, Reed, we should pick a Timmy Childers for the layup line before we move into football.
I'll go Creaker.
In a small corner bars, it's there drinking.
That was on the top of my Spotify from this weekend, so I'll go.
But we're going to try to get out and see Tyler this fall at some point.
Me and Reid just set a date, I think.
Is Mike's going to start doing hello again now that he's back?
Well, yeah.
He's got one.
But I'm going to sprinkle like sometimes in the open, sometimes with a guest, sometimes.
Which is good.
At the very end.
Which is good.
Can I do a quick hello?
Please.
Hello.
Oh, fuck.
You know, not everything formulaic is easy.
No, I know.
You're right.
You got to get down the formula first.
Give me one real quick.
Oh, the way I say it.
Yeah.
Well, here's the thing.
Do you still contest that you have not contracted COVID-19?
Sort of.
See, I got a little gravelly thing.
going on.
Daughter, father of a daughter had a little
bit of a cold. So I don't know how this will
go at all, but it's a, hello, hello.
All right. Hello.
A little overmodulated. Overmodulated.
Hello. Hello.
Yeah. Cowboy will work. Blacksburg, Virginia, dude.
I just want to say hi. I'm not going to say why.
We'll talk about the Hokies in a couple minutes, man.
But football's back. Yeah.
Football's back.
Football got right back with West.
Virginia Pittsburgh. The dopamine is out of control. I don't know about you, but I was having
trouble like Saturday about 7 p.m. I was like, man, this is overload. I just watched a million
games. The very familiar feeling of not knowing what happened in any of them, because it's like
fucking, it's like standing on a highway. This car is going by 100 miles an hour. I don't know
what's happening. I'm hebring cash. Yes. Gambling is done. It's not done for me. Gambling is over.
had a couple tennis losses too well so did i dude i want to apologize about that born a corich
no problem uh match born a corridge made me stronger okay okay ended the weekend with borna corich right
you had some crazy parley that hit you said you were up 30 bucks at the end of the day because of borna
honestly i was up redacted i was up like four grand at the end of the day so i was down like you know i was
down like a unit and then uh thanks to borna corch and chasing the four
fuck out of that bet all Saturday.
You know, and then, and then I got this parlay. Can I tell you what was in the parlay real
quick? Not that anybody at home cares, but it was Notre Dame, Ohio State Under. It was
Notre Dame catching 17. It was Syracuse and Dino.
Louisville, yeah. Upsetting Louisville, juicy plus 170 or whatever it was. So I had them
money line. And then the last leg were the beavers. So, so I was like thinking to myself with my
luck here I am standing to win like four thousand dollars on a two hundred dollar
bet and I'm gonna go to bed and I'm gonna wake up in the bevers are gonna be slain you know
yeah but I saw that they went up two three touchdowns and I just fucking went to bed
dude that's awesome that's good feeling I don't know what that move is called but it
felt good doing it and waking up and are you researching these games or just like a feel
thing when you're no I read I do a little research I mean like to me I know the carrier
Dome's a tough place to play. So tell me
that's, you know. No air conditioning
ironically. Yeah, well, so I just went
in doubt, picked the orange up
there. And then lastly, I
read that Oregon State was going to win that game
going away. Okay. You know, so I did a little research.
Okay. And Notre Dame I felt
good about because I know James Laronitis
and I know what kind of defense
he has a hand in coaching.
So they were going to keep the points down. The linebackers
played pretty well. On the
other side, it looked like they were trying to
take the air out of the ball a little bit.
Well, I didn't know.
anything about that.
You know.
But yeah, so big parlay hit.
That felt fucking good.
That felt good.
And then we had a really bad beat that actually made Steve's.
I didn't, I didn't bet this game because by my calculations, Hawaii and Western Kentucky,
we're still going to be playing at like two, three in the morning.
They were playing until 4 a.m.
Oh.
So this made bad beats last night I was watching.
And I guess the total was 67 and a half.
Hawaii's sitting at, they're sitting at 66.
Hawaii's got the ball under four minutes.
They're down 40 points.
They're really bad this year.
Like really bad.
Imagine being Hawaii and being like,
you got to go to the mainland to play anybody.
Like,
you got to pay those kids.
So they're a point in a half under the total.
They're driving.
Steve or Scott had these guys
because they put their heart and soul.
Probably Scott.
Probably Scott.
Yeah.
So Hawaii's driving.
And,
the quarterback is in the red zone.
They're under two minutes.
He fumbles at the one.
They get their own fumbles.
So you had a heart attack there if you had the over.
And then you're thinking it's first and goal on the one stuff four times in a row.
Wow.
Not just that.
Western Kentucky gets the ball back at the inch line, hands the ball off,
guys dead to rights in the end zone for safety, breaks the tackle, gets out.
So first really bad beat by my...
That's incredible.
By my calculations of the college football season.
I saw it last night in Sports Center.
shout out to Scott and Steve.
Lack of sleep.
That's going to be a common theme for this season.
Even Thursday night, we rolled right into Purdue Penn State.
It looked like Purdue was maybe going to get it done.
Purdue's back end is bad.
Did not?
They can't tackle.
Yeah.
A lot of bad teams out there.
Which is a lot of bad football.
Which is why college football is great, man.
But it's also coming out of camp.
So think about that.
Like, there's a lot of teams coming out of camp and we'll talk about,
boy, we'll talk about Georgia and Oregon.
But like, it looked to me like Georgia was a lot of a loophole
where they could practice tackle football.
and Oregon had to do like all
you know two hand touch but
camp is like
fuck dude you can't
there's no preseason you can't replicate
some of the tempo some of the
some of the making decisions on the fly
like at least in pro football
even with the new CBA
you can suit up and do a joint practice
you can play in a preseason
game or two college football is like a
fucking box of chocolates dude
which and then you end up getting
LSU FSU
Speaking of fumbling at the one.
That was unbelievable.
Oh, amazing.
So we're going to talk about all that with Ryan Vesillo, our friend,
talentless hack.
So the dope means back, college football's back, Pac-12 is just for commerce, dude.
We're not going to talk about the Pac-12 of Ryan today at all.
We're just going to talk about all the other Power 5 conferences.
Oregon State, thank you very much.
That was great waking up to that.
If anybody bet Hawaii and took the over in that game,
4 a.m., dude, 4 a.m. that game ended.
Can you imagine staying awake that fucking long?
to watch that happen.
So maybe one of the worst beats at that hour, I can never remember.
Make, how was the weekend other than football?
Other than football, I can't separate the two.
I went to the Virginia game and I had two Bloody Mary's,
the first two of my entire life.
Now, they were made by my wife.
We had both of our kids there, my father or two.
So all it did was taste like tomato juice, which, fine, I guess.
You need to get one with more alcohol in there.
A Bloody Mary at the right time and the right setting,
which is usually being hung over as fuck on like a guy's trip at like 11 a.m.
when you go down for a breakfast,
that's when to have a Bloody Mary and you want them to be like,
you have to go on a guy's trip.
Yeah, that would be step one.
You have to actually participate in one of these guys trips.
And if you did, I'll take you out for a Bloody Mary.
Okay.
A proper Bloody Mary.
A Bloody Mary is best when it's an emergency and you need it.
It's not a luxury.
It's an emergency.
Yeah.
Well, it's hard to get me, even though I've been talking a lot about the gins and that sort of thing of late.
It's hard to get me going a little bit.
So I thought, ah, Bloody Mary.
That does sound appealing.
And then it just, I don't, vodka, yeah?
It's most appealing when it's like a fucking aspirin and an intoxicant at the same time.
Like, Torid all.
It's tort all.
But I watched a game from a corner of an end zone in a suite, NBD.
And that's just a hard vantage point to watch.
Like, I don't know.
if we've gained three yards or 13.
Yeah.
This is a first world problem.
This is a football first world problems thing if I've ever heard it.
Like all 22.
No thank you.
I need to be at the 50.
I was a lot of people saw where I watch games.
Big kitchen TV guy.
You got to be up in the suite.
I'm on the kitchen TV.
Yeah.
Which is about 24 inches wide.
And I'm watching it over a rotisserie chicken.
That's where I'm going to be every Saturday.
Like there's a rotissory chicken under your TV or you were
eating a rotisserie. I was eating a rotisserie chicken. Check it out online. Okay. I think I did figure out
how to unmute you. Like I muted you there for a while. Yeah, why was that? Recharged the old
battery. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You muted me over the break. Muted you. Muted green light.
Muted Kyle. Muted Facts. Muted Matt. Muted Reid. I muted everybody. And I'm still just getting
back into unmuting. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You missed a lot of great tweets. You want me to send
them all? Yeah, please. Please do that. Put them on a zip drop.
You really hated this pod for a while.
No, no, no, but that's what I needed to recharge.
I think you're the first person to ever mute me.
I feel offended.
You don't know that.
No, no, no, no, I muted you too.
There's a mutiny.
This is a muttony.
A mute.
A mutiny.
What's that from?
I just made that up.
Oh, you made it up.
I couldn't get the word mutiny out.
That's good.
Yeah.
That's from the green light pot.
You would have missed it.
It's called me stuttering.
Yeah, it's RIP.
All right. Speaking of beverages, dude.
Second beverage in 10 days.
Big caffeine is sneaking caffeine and fucking everything.
Last night I thought I picked up a smart water.
It had ginseng extract and green tea extract.
What the fuck is that, dude?
Where did you get it from?
Like a convenience of all nations.
Oh.
Foods of all inflations.
Yeah.
More like it.
Yeah, you're right about that.
Sheesh.
But I mean, like, that's the type of thing that can put your boy down.
I had to like write smart water online to find out if there's any fucking caffeine.
there turns out there's no caffeine but how do you know that's a lot and it's next to all the
waters so next to all the waters last week i was head to the river read i didn't tell you about this
i got one of those vitamin hit uh you know they're kind of like vitamin waters they're like
knock off they're called vitt hit or whatever um i got the orange one because i thought it was
like flavored like orange no white tea green tea black tea it was a tea orgy dude i realized that when
I had about a third of the bottle driving down to Scottsville, and I panicked because caffeine and
your boy like bad, bad. You think like this coffee thing's a bit. It's just bad. So I pulled over
and pulled the trigger. No. Yeah, dude. You are crazy. No, I got, I pulled over. I pulled over
and my buddy John who was driving behind me. It was like, is he okay? And I just walk out of the truck
and I pulled the trigger probably technically in somebody's yard. But I could not let that caffeine
fuck up my afternoon, dude.
You put so many substances into your person
and a couple of MGs of caffeine.
That should tell you,
you're barfing on the side of the road.
That should tell you the dangers of caffeine.
So anyways, yeah, like stop big caffeine
from sneaking shit into people.
Anybody wants to talk like benzos and caffeine?
Softball game tonight.
I'm psyched.
You guys won't hear what happened.
Well, you will.
You can check the timeline.
I'll be live tweeting the game.
Are you going to get some clear?
at least this week.
Yeah, I got some fucking cleats.
I just sent my lovely assistant to play it again sports to grab me some 14s.
Oh, that's why they were only $19.
Yeah, they're used.
I got you.
You want your cleats broke in, man.
So we'll talk to Rosillo about that.
Hey, did you know I'm on your softball team?
Yeah, you told me earlier.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So what did you say?
I'll never show up.
But anyways, one NFL thing today.
Okay, we're not going to talk a lot of NFL today.
Okay, I'm fucking tired of it.
It's just about to start, but I'm tired of it.
When you're a podcaster, the NFL didn't just start.
Okay, like, you know, everybody, and you and your fake tweets about, like, football's back, all caps, like, all these, like, all I do is football.
Yeah, you've been doing it all summer.
If you're a sports media person, you're tired of it by now.
So give me the day off from football.
On Friday, we will pick division winners and all that jazz.
Maybe with Steve.
but today we're going to talk a lot of college football.
There's one thing I want to talk about in the NFL.
Jason Peters sign with the Cowboys.
That's really what the headlines should read in Philly.
It shouldn't be a big fucking deal.
Jason Peter signs with the Cowboys.
Instead, and this is me, like, I know that a lot of people assume
that I'm like a real Philly Homer, which I am from a city standpoint,
but I'm not a you know I'm not like some you know like I can see the game without a bias
and I love their fans but I'm gonna I'm gonna be real like if anybody's dog cussing Jason Peters
for signing with the Cowboys at 40 years old 40 I think you're I think you're missing the mark
man like it's totally your prerogative you've been an Eagles fan longer than I was an eagle
by a long time I'm sure but it's fucking ridiculous man like get over it you know like get
it, dude, you don't know, you don't know what somebody's sitting there at 40 years old going through
during a transition? Like, maybe he's thinking about retiring. He's like, I'm not ready to retire.
Like, I'm not in a place in my life where I can say goodbye to this game that I've been playing for,
you know, my whole life and I'm a 40 year old man. Like, it's fucking scary to retire. Maybe I want
to go make a million or two dollars. Like, God bless him. He's 40 years old. Go play tackle for the
Cowboys. Dude, if Pat's fans got over Adam Venetier,
if Packers fans can get over Brett Farr when he went to
That's a good one.
If fucking Jared Allen can play for the Bears.
If Deshawn Jackson, you did it with Deshawn Jackson.
Do you hate Deshawn Jackson?
He played for the Washington football team.
I know it's the Cowboys and I know I only played in Philly,
so I don't know what it's like to be a born and bred Eagles fan.
But this guy gave like a lot of service to the city of Philadelphia
into that team and is a Hall of Famer.
So I think it's kind of fucking lame to dog him for going and making money at 40 years old when all he ever knew how to do was play football and he's got one last chance, maybe two last chances at it, which is a miracle dude.
This guy's also one of the best dudes that you could ever imagine.
Playing with other Hall of Famers, I can tell you, not all of them are as down to earth and easy to deal with as Jason Peters.
I'm just saying like Jason Peters would be a 23 year old rookie would come in and Peters and
JP would be in there with the kid you know studying extra you know making sure he was straight
he'd shoot pool with all the guys after after practices like basically lived at the facility
was everything you wanted in a dude on your team and he was there for a decade you know like
Philly's lucky that they had him so I just never understand like I know there's some rivalry stuff
and everything, but it's so fucking whack to me
to start cussing a guy out who gave
you 10 years.
It's crazy. He started as a tight end.
Yeah, in Buffalo.
He was my second sack,
and probably the best player I ever beat for a sack
was Jason Peters, but he was a tackle.
He's in his third or fourth year.
Yeah, at Arkansas, he was a big tight end.
It's crazy.
But yeah, no, I mean, like, if those other franchises
can get over, you know, Marcus Allen to the Chiefs,
get over it.
It's Jason Peters.
He's a legend, man.
Like just be, be happy he played.
I can, I get like some of the like, oh man, fucking,
but if you're seriously sitting there behind your computer angry, like you need to,
I played in the NFL, it's not that fucking serious.
I can tell you, trust me.
It's not that serious.
NFL to me is not a rivalry league.
It's not like college sports.
To me, I'm also not the type fighting other people in the stands.
Exactly.
You're also not an NFL fan.
Like, you know what I mean?
Like, who, you're Giants fan.
For me, it would be a, a.
giant becoming a commander and that would take me all of three seconds to get over.
Yeah, you'd be like, oh, traitor, ha ha. Yeah.
Ha ha. Like he's that, Jason Peters didn't even a premier player anymore, man. Like,
just let the guy go make money. I just don't fucking get some people, man. Like,
they think it is way more serious than it is. It's a very serious business, but it's just that.
It's a business. Farb is probably the best example, staying in the division.
I mean, but did he go to New York first? New York. He went to New York.
first. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But, but it really doesn't, you know, Jason went to Chicago first.
It's not like he left. Yeah, I'll just never understand that. So I just wanted, I'm going to step
down off my soapbox now. Um, are there players who would say I would never go play for X
team because of this rivalry we have? Yeah, sure, probably. I, I might be one of them. Like, and I was
only there two years, but like, truth be told when, and I'm not Jason, I'm 33 at this point.
nowhere close to him,
but I was there two years.
We won a Super Bowl.
There might have been a place or two
that I could have gone to play
that wouldn't have sat well in Philly.
And I was like, man, you know,
just being where I've been
and not having an NFL home,
I didn't want to fuck that up.
But for Jason Peters, like,
fuck him, dude.
If you don't feel that way,
who gives a fuck?
It's not even,
it's not that serious, man.
Yeah, I'm with you.
You're going to beat Dallas twice,
year. Like you're going to beat Dallas twice this year. You're going to win the division.
Uh, spoiler alert for Friday show, but like, get over it. Dude. It's not like, it's not even like he's, he's in his prime.
You know, in addition to memento more, you remember everything dies. I always say, uh, just be nice. Just,
just be kind to people. Remember everything enters free agency. Right. Eventually.
Free market, y'all. It's a free market. It's just wild to me.
Okay, give me some tennis before Riscilla gets on here.
Since we last spoke, Serena's lost.
I got to tell you, man, I watched that shit.
I've not watched tennis that long in my life, like professionally.
And after talking about her last week and like just like setting the table to see that,
it was every bit as like poetic as you would think it would be.
I mean, just how tough it was to kill her.
Yeah.
I mean, it was just every time you thought she was, when she hit the ball,
100 and she served the ball like 117 miles an hour
and like just
what do you call it an ace
just whizzed by the other chick
I go holy shit
I had chills like it was
it was the hardest serve of the night
we were 90 minutes into that bad boy
and I think the sport could use more
personality because the reason I tuned in
I've never once tuned in to watch Roger Federer
that's fair
Serena can draw me
probably because she's retiring
but also because she's like
she's got a personality
and she's fucking
she's brash and she's interesting
and I just like man her eyes man
she has seen a lot of shit dude
like as they were kind of ice on her
and she knew her career was kind of waning down
like how expressive
or her eyes like you're just like
dude ultimate competitor
I've seen some shit
I'm not going out easy
just maximum
respect for Serena
and maximum respect for the chick that beat her
because
imagine sitting in that chair.
Did you hear her post game interview?
She did great. Ila
Rudy Tom Janovitch.
She, uh, very, very impressive.
Yeah.
Maybe one of the best postgame pressers.
She was great.
Oh, amazing. I like Caroline Garcia to win on the women's side.
And let's go,
uh, let's go Yonick Center on the men's side.
Francis Tiafo American.
I won't be betting any of those.
Josh, please don't.
John McEnroe last night was like,
Francis, how does it feel you'd be the first American man
to win a Grand Slam in however many years?
And he was like, oh, I don't care at all about that.
That's good.
I love that kid.
Yeah, he's like, I want to win for me.
Which guy is that?
Francis Tiafo.
Oh, yeah, he's the guy that beat Nadal.
His dad was like a maintenance guy at a tennis court growing up.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Oh, there he is.
Hey, there's Ryan Rissilo.
Damn, he looks good.
Damn, he's got the redbirds.
I do that for you.
Traps out.
I know, and I did leg stay too.
It's crazy.
Yeah, I did upper.
No big deal.
This is a big shirt.

Hey, Rye.
The first thing, can we,
maybe you can help us with something.
Harry Stiles.
Who the fuck is that?
What's going on?
Break it down.
We know you're pretty in tune with
the current events.
Yeah, I don't know that I can break it down.
It's from Redditch, obviously, you know, one direction that was about a decade ago.
And there's always like that guy.
I always wonder if the guys, you know, the rest of the guys like alternative directions
that aren't going to be as cool as Harry Styles, like what kind of animosity is they're there.
Although one girl from college that we all were in the same class with was bragging
about how she looked up with one of the backstreet boys.
And then the next day he entered rehab.
And we were like, oh, stocked out.
That was sort of a.
brag and then it was like that was such a bad time i'm checking into rehab so anyway uh there seems
to be this push lately for this kind of skinnier just sort of um you know what's going on with the
clothing you know really pushing the limits of fashion you wear like just call them a beta mail ryan
yeah it's kind of yeah but like timothy shallame like it feel like these guys kind of
i don't know what's going on but it's super popular and i've been bulking for 20 years and
now I feel like a completely fucked up.
Yeah, you did because this guy,
this guy evidently is doing well.
Like,
uh,
I was posting about him today.
A lot of,
a lot of ladies like Harry Styles.
And I don't know.
I agree with them,
by the way.
You think he's good looking guy?
Yeah.
And I think he's got,
I mean,
I don't know.
It seems like he's a little bit like a one trick pony on the dance floor.
When I see these clips,
because they just pop up.
You can't help it.
I mean,
if you've got any of the associates,
you're just going to see his content.
And,
uh,
I kind of think he's got to,
to sort of lean back shoulder-shaping, but people go fucking wild.
So was he a musician or an actor first? Because I listen to his music today. Target's going
to be calling soon for commercials. Because he's got like some, some commercial music.
Like it's just, you just... I think there's an Apple one he already has, man. He's on Apple already.
Then never mind. It's a huge deal. Price has gone way up.
Were you guys aware that Siddakis and Olivia Wilde had broken up? Because I was not.
So that's how I knew him. I was like, oh, he's the guy who broke up.
Ted Lassau and Olivia Wilde, who I met.
They're really nice people.
A daughter of Miss Coburn who ran through or something.
That's how I met them in the commonwealth.
But she's sitting two people over.
She's sitting next to Chris Pine.
Yeah, it's awkward.
The whole dynamic.
And I think, you know, I'm thinking maybe publicity stunt because I never heard of this
project they're working on.
Now I have, right?
By the way, everybody's talking about this movie.
I had no idea what it was going on.
It's just like every single day, variety, Hollywood reporter, anything on Twitter,
it's like this movie, this movie, this movie.
There's this other girl walking around with that for all sprits is all day long.
Those are good.
Yeah, a couple are good.
They're very sweet.
They're very good.
I had one this summer for the first time.
Yeah, dude, they're really fucking good.
I got a couple preemates in the fridge here if we have any late-night visitors.
I bet you do.
Also, to me, slam dunk, Chris Pine, miscast in that Jeff Bridges movie that I hate.
I always said that about him in the Jeff Bridges movie.
Heller Highwater.
The most overrated movie ever.
Star Man?
Most overrated movie ever.
You're the worst.
By the way, you are the toughest ever when it comes to TV shows, movies, and, there I say, women.
No.
You're a hard mark.
Well, have you seen my wife?
Meg's a stunner.
Yeah.
He didn't like Succession.
No, for two episodes.
Then I kept an open mind and you got to.
admit the first episode they were plot sharing they were hemorrhaging plot dude rye are you watching
industry when i saw the tagline for it where it was like succession meets euphoria in the mashup we
needed i'm like did we need that did we need banking like hey i'm going to jerk off today but i work
at a bank sounds like i did that that is the show that is where can i find this one hb o mac oh nice
yeah i'll try to sign into that one
Makin, you get this.
Like, you know, you have friends in finance.
How many of those people working at that bank would actually cover those clients this soon in their careers?
Oh, oh, very, very few.
I like the show, but there's some banking hangups I have with it.
That's why I can't get into Mad Men.
It's not the banking, but it's the advertising for me.
I'm like, how could I be so fucking interested in a bunch of people selling ads in the 50s?
I guess I could now that I'm talking about.
You guys, you want to want like five minutes from me today?
that's that's the worst fucking take ever i didn't say it's about advertising it's not a take it's not a take
it's not a take it's why i failed to get into it on a very surface level that that show is
so good i know it is they have i'm saving it so i'm so jealous like there are lines by the way
in the end of succession when tom talks to shiv and they're on that island off of the yacht and he's like
I can't tell if being with you hurts more than being without you.
Essentially, I'm paraphrasing here a little bit.
Like, that's the kind of stuff.
And anybody's ever tried to write out a short story or something.
You're like, fuck, that is so good.
And Mad Men is littered with those.
Okay.
When the hipster slash hippie guys like, oh, you work in advertising, you know, like,
fuck you, fuck you, fucking, Draper just looks and he goes, stop buying things then.
That's good.
That's good. That's good.
That's why I'm going to be hooked on.
I didn't mean to offend you five minutes.
the show. I know you're a big Mad Men fan, but I haven't gotten
into it yet. So I don't want to be a poser and say,
oh, that's fucking brilliant piece of art. I'm not
into it yet. It came out like 15 years ago.
I haven't had fucking time, Brian.
There's a lot of stuff going on.
But Chris Pine is miscast in
Heller Highwater because no white
trash guy that's robbing fucking banks
has hair like Chris Pine.
And no white trash guy, nobody that could
play a guy in Middle America
who's robbing banks because of
economic anxiety.
No guy that is cast in a role like that should ever get spit on and not do shit about it.
So that just to me-
I don't know if he was spit on.
I don't know what's going on there.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I've seen the international feeds.
I've seen the different angles.
Although his flow right now is out of control.
Out of control.
It looks good.
But, you know, you're tough.
I don't like,
Heller Highwater is a good movie.
It's a good movie.
No, it's an okay movie.
It's part of Sheridan's entire like, you know, West, West,
expansion trilogy, which is
Sicario and Wynn River.
Well, I love the other two. Right. He wrote
them all kind of together. I don't know why
you have such a hard time with that one. The dialogue.
Mostly Jeff Bridges and his partner
in the car, like, you know, just
like, they're performing
for an imaginary third passenger in the car.
Just talk like normal people.
You're strict. You're very strict about it.
I'll give you that because that's a very good point.
Make him, go ahead. That's a common criticism
from you. It's a dialogue. It's dialogue.
You know, like, I don't like plot sharing.
Exposition. Is that the word?
Show me. Show me. Don't tell me.
Yeah, just fucking show me, dude. In the first
three minutes of the movie, you don't need
to lay the whole thing out. Tell me who
the dragons are related to.
They were doing that in fucking the Game of Thrones
the other day. Okay, but you're making
it out to be the Geico AdWords. Like, you
are Brian Rakpo. That's...
Washington linebacker. I don't
want to step on a sponsor, but Modello
does a lot of... Who
is it? Does the plot sharing in the
commercials, the fighting spirit?
Hey, Madello's a sponsor for me.
I know it is.
No, that's what I'm saying.
I don't want to step on your sponsors, but they do a lot of exposition.
They're like, you're Damian Lillard.
All right.
Guard that's stuck in Portland because when the Geico Caveman is introducing Brian
Arakbo in the 30 second ad, I was like, okay, maybe this tells you.
And, but I would tell you if you watch pilots of TV shows, okay?
And it happens in movies too.
There's way more of that sharing to get you.
you up to speed, then you probably realize that there's just a way you can be delicate.
And then, you know, I think the ones that are more obvious, I would have a problem with,
and you clearly have problems. But you were brutal. You, like, you don't like any of the
Clint Eastwood movies, correct? No, I don't dislike them. I'm just, I think people make too big a deal
about it. It's like, it's like saying, man, like the first Ford sedan is the greatest
sedan that was ever made because it was fucking first. No, the, the car sucks. It's just, it just was, it was,
oh look at this car the same thing with westerns with Clint Eastwood in it like they were like
oh this is cool somebody's actually doing a western that guy's grunting a lot I mean listen it's not even
a personal clue it's not a Clint Eastwood vendetta I just I sat there and I watched a good bad and
ugly and I was like okay this is cool like I enjoyed sitting there and watching it but I'm not
going to put it in like the top hundred movies of all time I'm not going to put it up there
with Casablanca which I've never seen probably sucks
I wouldn't watch it if I were you.
What do you like?
City of God.
I don't know.
Good question, Rye.
I'm not good at your favorite TV show.
Give us your top two if you can get that far.
I mean, I'm going to be chalky as fuck.
The Wire was awesome, but I also like True Detective season one.
Two?
No, not season two.
I lasted all of the hotel room scene with Vince Vaughn.
wasn't he in it?
Yeah,
I like, Vince Vaughn in there.
I'm like, what the fuck are we doing here?
How about when Colin Farrell picks up his kids at the school and beats his shit?
Colin Farrell, by the way, I don't know.
I don't know where his stock went, but people retired after buying that back up.
The lobster?
Oh, the Northwater.
Did you end up watching that show about those guys going up way up north?
No, but I hate the Northman.
I watch the lobster.
It's a weird scars guard.
He's in the new Batman, too.
Yeah, he plays copper pot because it's like a different version of the penguin.
Okay.
Like, I don't know what my top 10 movies are, but I've seen a lot of movies and there's
ones I like.
There's ones I don't like.
There's one.
Sexy Beast is a great movie.
Just popped into my head.
Love that movie.
What a shitty house guest he was.
My favorite movie is the Blues Brothers.
Okay.
Starring John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd.
All right.
So that's art.
There's a lot of call.
All right.
It still holds up.
It does.
Question number two for you here before we get into college football.
Mark Zuckerberg making gunner.
Who we got in a fight?
Did you see the footage of Mark Zuckerberg lately?
Not unlike Harry Styles populating the timeline.
I did see it.
I didn't click on it.
You should be flattered.
This guy is punching stuff like hard, dude.
He's, yeah.
I mean, I don't know.
A lot of these guys rehearsed these punching routines with myths and you're like,
all right, cool, man.
bro this guy's got enough money to curl up and die and he's actually doing like jujitsu i want to
him i have no i'm not endorsing anything he's done i think the world's ending whether or not i get
outraged about it nah i probably take zuck i'm not worried i'm not worried about those kicks
you're not worried about those kicks no his whole torque at the bottom of it you know whatever
you guys are hypnotized by the pads what about what about making i who wants it more i don't i don't
want much. And
you know,
64175 short arms,
torn labrum. DeVante Smith
comp. Minus.
The thing
I like most in life is probably
Ben and Jerry's
half baked now. Okay.
And they have the chocolate and the vanilla ice cream
in there with the
fudge brownie and the cookie dough.
And weirdly the best part of that ice cream
is the vanilla
because it's just the off speed.
that you it's a palate cleanser but no all I all I think about all day is getting to that
Ben and Jerry's half baked and putting on an industry or a or a reservation dog okay so mark
Zuckerberg minus 3 30 I just don't know though it's about it's about how mad you can get you to get that
inner beast like deep down how are you wired like that's that's what I put my money I saw him fight once
you saw him make him fight yeah when we were really drunk it was after Foxfield uh you remember
you and Sean got into that.
Your head hit the fucking ground pretty hard.
Really hard.
Yeah.
It is weird though with these billionaires that they all sort of pivot towards now I want
to get jacked and be tough.
And it's like you guys made fun of us all the time for being meatheads.
That's true.
And then once you kind of settle deep down, this is really what you wanted.
There's no replacement for masks.
I'll tell you why.
Because if you go on Joe Rogan right now, like you're going to get some friends.
And like if you're rich and you do a little.
little MMA, you can go on Joe Rogan.
That's what's coming next.
Zuckerberg's going to be on Joe Rogan's show.
Look, if that hasn't happened.
He was? Okay, well, there you go. That's probably how he learned Jiu-Jitsu.
You didn't catch that news? Oh, you didn't like that version when Facebook was being?
The Biden laptop? You had no problem with that cover up, did you?
No.
I don't even know what we're talking about.
Hey, Ryan.
The emails.
This finger right here is busted. I can't make a fist.
And then a friend of mine once said, why would you ever want to?
And I said, that's exactly right.
and I have a lot of quitted me.
So I got Zuckerberg minus 3.30.
Oh, well.
Okay.
I don't know what the Clemson odds were as I steer this into the ACC to win the ACC to win the ACC to win the ACC.
To win the ACC before the season started, you got them at?
Yeah, well, I don't know what they were, but I don't know for sure that Clemson's going to win the ACC now.
Oh, the conference sucks.
It does suck, but did you see, we'll get to Florida State in a second.
I know Ryan's going to want to talk about Florida State.
Ryan, first question, does Clemson suck?
No, they don't suck because the defense is insane.
A lot of those guys are back.
And even if they don't have the same receivers that you're used to,
I know that for whatever reason I kind of hang on to this idea that Oongol-L-L-A is going to look like the guy we saw against Notre Dame two years ago.
I mean, it's staggering when you look back at the stats.
They were top three defense by almost any estimation across college football.
and they were flirting around the hundreds on offense.
Like, how does that happen at Clemson?
But again, you know, people have down years.
The weird thing is, is every year I go to the Elite 11 out here in California,
I pick up a couple things from that access that I'll be like,
you've got to be kidding.
That's not going to happen.
And they're right every single year.
Like, they'll tell me about a guy, like, no, this guy's going to.
And it was really, really, I guess, enlightening that they were talking about how
Clubnick was probably going to overtake DJ at some point.
And I'm like, come on, man.
Like, no way, this guy's a huge recruit.
You know, again, maybe I fell for the, he lost a little weight.
I did think he settled down.
30 pounds.
I thought he settled down a little bit.
And then people kind of talked up Clubnik again during garbage time.
I think that that would have to still be a pretty, pretty long leash for DJ on that gig
and that they're not in a hurry to go ahead and move them out of there.
But there was just that middling ACC part of it.
It was a bad opening weekend.
But, you know, believe it or not, like after this first week of stuff, even though
so used to chalk lately. I still kind of believe with sports, like there's the ebbs and flows
of the season and some of these teams will get better and some won't. I mean, that's, I feel like
we forget that after week one too much. No, you're right. And like I was just talking about with
make, it's like coming out of training camp in the NFL, you have at least an extended look at your
personnel. You have, you know, some good on good with some other teams. You got preseason,
like college football, it's a different deal. So there's a lot of stuff that you got to work out
week one and Clemson it took them half a game to get going. I just don't think the quarterback's
a guy. And, you know, I do think the Notre Dame game gave people such a false hope that subconsciously,
that's what people are still kind of clinging to. That's like, that was everybody's first impression.
That's how big first impressions are. You know, they put up like 31 points that night or whatever it was.
It was kind of a shootout. And the kid looked really good. But yeah.
I don't know.
And then NC State, who's supposed to challenge them, they go to Greenville, G. Vegas, as people call it,
which, by the way, is a really fucking tough place to play.
I can tell you because we lost there.
They were firing that cannon, like, so loud.
It was like, you know, like, you flinch every time the cannon goes off,
and then you feel like a huge pussy because you, like, flinch on the sideline.
You're like, they just scored on you.
They beat us without Chris Johnson.
That's how bad it was.
And then Chris Johnson was hurt.
And then a Hall of Fame was hurt.
And then they scored a touch.
you're on the sideline like this.
The tailgates are insane.
It's just a tough place.
When they had that goal line stand,
which was, by the way,
like the,
the,
the vibeest play of the weekend.
Like,
they should,
Darius Butler tweeted,
he was like,
it's a shame they can't hang
that picture in the hallway
at their facility.
No,
they just have to hang the fucking picture,
dude.
That was one of the greatest
goal line stands I've ever seen.
You won a lot of games,
but you lost in some weird places.
Wyoming.
At Wyoming.
Yeah.
Barely survived the carrier dome.
Should have lost it.
Middle Tennessee.
The Murphysboro.
You blocked the
almost the worst
plane ride ever
because we were on the
tarmac in
Murphy'sboro for three hours
midnight.
Had we lost to
fucking middle Tennessee
State.
So yeah,
it was a bad weekend
for the ACC.
But we do this
every year with the ACC.
Tech.
Do you see tech?
I did see tech.
Hey.
Hey, it just came
across the ticker,
Ryan.
What was stolen
from their locker room?
Their manhood.
Their dignity.
Their dignity to.
There's that
comedic genius was ripped their self-esteem how'd you uh how'd you hold up in laramie was that was that a stay
over 80 something plays man listen dudes were out there running in quicksand i'm looking around like
save yourself people are like save yourself like was the body language dudes were there were guys
running in place i had a pretty good game but we were tired because we went out there two days
early to acclimate which is not possible and we actually ran the day before they
game. Wow. Just some old school shit. And then we go out there and dudes are just gas, man.
Those fucking bunch of guys, and I know they're not podcast listeners because they're all
roping cattle and shit. Those guys kicked our asses. And then that... Yeah, but a lot of those guys
drive heavy machinery that do like podcasts. Yeah, you're right. So shout out to anybody who's on
that Wyoming team. You all fucked us up. And then you won seven games in a row, I believe.
Cardiac Cal. Wyoming can fuck a guy up. Yeah, dude. It really can. When you walk into that
stadium and on the big board there's flames oh ryan just made a ryan joke i got it what did he say a rio
yeah that was good i caught it's good that's good that's good you guys gonna put that on tomorrow's
pod yeah you guys both caught some ls caught a couple ls in one i'll workshop that you made the joke
that was great great joke but but yeah when you walk into that stadium and uh you are a writer
you walk into that stadium and there's flames on the jumbes
And it says welcome to hell.
And then it lists it lists it's like aggressive like it says the it says the
altitude which you do the quick math in your head and you're like fuck five thousand
two hundred you're like oh man this is a mile and a half.
What I do like about Kilimanjaro though that you can use this as a fact because I was
checking out some spherical data the other day because we as we know this planet is not a
perfect circle shout up to tool side project.
But what you actually can do if you go from the earth's core out to the
typical in general that's actually a further distance than the peak of everest oh nice we should do
that no no check it on it's that might get dan in from the earth's core yeah there's some stuff if
you check it out because we're not a perfect yeah we're not a perfect uh circle as you didn't know that
though no i didn't know that i didn't know that i didn't write jokes too you got a good joke for us
yeah yeah yeah my wife the other day she said uh she asked if i had seen the dog bowl and i said
I didn't know she knew how.
Yeah, he did that on the last five.
I left the first time.
But yeah, no, the ACs fucked up.
And I do, I want to talk about Virginia Tech.
I want to give them, I want to give them the worst plane, worst bus ride.
Yeah.
Worst elevator ride.
Yeah.
Okay.
And I want to give the, I want to give the worst person ever award to the guy that ran into the fan.
I mean, Tech really showed their ass the other night.
Yeah.
Connor Blumrick.
Connor Blumrick.
Not to be confused with.
K.
Clubneck.
Now usually I side with the,
the player,
because I'm like,
these motherfuckers are like in your shit.
But this guy,
I watched it like 40 times.
I'm like, yeah,
he launched,
targeting,
launched.
So yeah,
tech lost.
That was awesome.
Maryland,
I know they're not in the ACC,
but we hate Maryland.
So we can mention this for a second.
Did you see the shots of how many people were at that game?
Yeah,
I mean,
everybody's freaking out out here because no one went to the UCLA game,
but it was a massive,
we have a massive heat.
wave going on. And that's up
further inland. Maryland
just has tetanus.
The whole student body. It's a dirty,
dirty place. College part. Look, Maryland
is another one of my exhibit,
whatever letter you want to throw on it. I'm like, yeah, cool,
college expansion. Awesome.
Maryland's in the conference that doesn't want to be in. Not
playing a sport, it doesn't prefer.
My favorite was Greg
Shiano talking
in the we about
the Big Ten, about like what we
need to do to steward the
Big Ten and attract programs.
I was like, bro, people forgot you're in the
Big Ten. Like, I forgot
that Rutgers were in the Big Ten.
Greg Shiano, one of my favorite Greg Shiano stats
is he and Mike Brown, NBA head coach.
When they were hired to ESPN
as analysts, they might as well
just answered every question. And they're like, I have
literally nothing to say because I just here for a check
and I want a coach again. And
you just be like, Shiano, you'd go,
all right, well, so what happened
there? He's like, you know, he's going to get a hat
on a hat. It's like, no, no, what
happened when this happened when you were coaching the team like what was it about this other
quarterback that you'd like you know it's just you have to know what you're bringing and and what
you're leaving behind and you're like holy fuck you do not want to do the media gig at all do
no platitude like don't like i remember mike brown once i was like you've coach cobi you've coach
lebron let's go like what is it because oh so talented i have that i have that in my notes too
good. Yeah, don't go to Shiano for sound bites.
But I'm
LSU, Florida State. That's the one
positive for the ACC this weekend.
I almost forgot Florida State was in the ACC.
It really is like that. I think we see them once every seven years.
Yeah, and not anymore for the next few years
until the ACC implodes.
Like, I know that you're zagging because you're an LSU guy
and you're like, it's not a big deal. Game one.
Well, it's Brian Kelly. There's two different discussions here.
You want to talk about this team right now? Yeah, I'm worried.
They're offensive line.
And I think if you go back to previous six years, other than the deal of the title,
and even that year, maybe if there was one unit you thought wasn't up to speed with the other units,
because again, the receivers are all NFL guys in the first round running back,
get a quarterback, you get all these defensive guys.
And everybody laughs to me when I'm like, even the last couple of years,
they've had these horrible stretches where it looked like no one even wants to play for the team.
Right.
I'm like, do you realize there's like 12 pros running around right now?
That's why they're able to beat Flora.
That's why they're actually able to hang with Bama.
But people just make it out to be like, I'm making excuses for them.
I am really worried about their offensive line.
Daniels, who I watched a lot at Arizona State, was very dynamic and fun his freshman year.
And like a lot of dual threat guys, people kind of catch up to what you're doing.
And then you wonder, like, how much of the passing game is this guy developing?
Are you looking him go through and make his reads and progressions?
I didn't see any of that from him, really, you know, until it was desperation time.
And I think he may be the starter over Nussmeyer because they know the offensive line is so bad with a freshman left tackle.
and like a fifth or six-year guy, right tackle who was a mess, that whole game.
I mean, hell, that Albany transfer, Versa who came into Florida State, he was a nightmare.
So I wasn't surprised they lost to a Florida State team that I'm still not that sure about.
I thought Travis from Florida State, their quarterback, looked terrific at times.
Yeah, they had a really good game.
Yeah, they were the better team.
So like the right team won despite the two neighbors, punt fumbles and everything.
But there's still a lot of talent on this LSU team.
but first series you lose your best defensive player
and Mason Smith tackle who's
who's like a first half
first round pick. Allie Gaye,
who I don't know what the fuck he was doing, is their best
edge guy and a captain.
And then Bouté, who's an awesome receiver.
Like, I'm not great.
You know, I can still get, even though I try to watch
the line first and then watch
the replay, I can get stuck ball watching a little
bit. But then I started watching him on his
routes. I'm like, you don't even give it shit.
Like, and again, in Bech,
the white kid is good. And then
Jason Taylor's kid, Joy Taylor's nephew, the freshman tight end.
Shout out.
Looks like a beast.
So I don't know.
You know, if DeNos doesn't figure it out, they'll probably play Nussmeyer at some point.
D.K. is not afraid of bench guys left and right.
But, you know, he's inheriting a group that post that national championship, Chris,
where I feel like there's still a lot of talented guys.
But I don't know how much buy-in there is because it was just a lot of weird dudes
that kind of were just over it after that title game that were still around on campus.
So, you know, we'll see what that.
happens. Well, I mean, I don't think they're like some great team. No, no, but they'll be,
they'll be, we were saying they'll probably be middling in the SEC. Like, they're just going to
be. Yeah, they're going to have a couple losses. Like, what the hell? They're probably going to
play one of the big boys tight for a little while. But I don't really know. I got to see more from
the quarterback, man. When I feel like on third and seven, I can't trust you to beat me with a
throw, then it just, to me, it's a concern. I feel like it's like half a college football.
Two things. Number one, no bigger winner the other night than the kid that retired,
the LSU quarterback that retired.
Oh, yeah, Brennan.
Yeah, he's counting as raising Cain's money, and he's watching.
He got four NIL deals.
Like two of my buddies, I think, cut him checks.
How do they feel?
I haven't asked him about it.
Maybe they should pay more to have him trot back out there
because, yeah, quarterback looks like a problem.
But you're right, like maybe it's an offensive line thing.
Devil's Advocate, that front's pretty good.
Florida State's front's pretty good.
It's just LSU for whatever reason,
even when they were good, I forget, I think Brodie Miller of the athletic had the line.
It was really good where they graded out as a net negative five of the last six seasons.
They've just had a hard time putting together a plus offensive line there, which again,
you're not going to get every unit right there.
But, you know, my, like, that's a tougher one to fix.
Like, you break the huddle week one and you don't like your offensive line.
Like, Dante Scarnacki is the only human, I think, that exists that goes, okay, well, let's fix it.
it. Yeah. You know, I think a lot of teams, they kind of know, or you have to have a quarterback,
like, that's what I think the great NFL quarterbacks do is they go, all right, you know,
we don't like our interior guys, or I got a new center or, you know, the right side, left side.
Okay, well, I have to adjust whether it's the route or what I'm doing back here, I have to
adjust to compensate for them. Like, I always think that's what the great quarterbacks do.
To ask a college kid who's transferred in to start thinking that way, that's not going to happen.
Yeah, no question. What about Bouté scrubbing LSU from a social? Is this a, a
seen out of
idiocracy,
2000. I haven't seen it.
22.
Don't involve. You wouldn't like it too slow.
Dialogue is sucks.
Yeah, that's like that I suck. Not realistic.
I like the Truman Show a lot.
I love the Truman Show.
Is this social scrubbing the dumbest thing of all time?
I think it is because I'm older,
because I'm a big zag on this. If somebody dumped me,
I would stay following them.
I try to prove that it's like, I'll watch you with another dude.
Oh, yeah, I'm going to leave all the pictures up.
Yeah, yeah.
You know, like two months later, you're hanging out with that guy that I knew you were talking to already.
And now you're doing stuff because I'm stuck here watching football,
trying to build my life up and have a goal at the end that was going to share with somebody
where everything was going to be taken care of and money was never going to be an issue.
But yeah, no, enjoy St. Pete.
This is never happening.
Is this real?
It sounded real.
Enjoy St. Pete.
What's happening in St. Pete?
All right.
Speaking of Florida.
So I think the move is safe.
start liking more stuff, like show how unfazed you are.
I mean, Kyler Murray.
Or get open.
Stay engaged.
I'm saying, like, I'm not even phased by this.
You guys look great together.
Terrific genes.
Kyler Murray was, like, for the internet today to be like, man, that guy got the second
most guaranteed money ever.
And to be fair, even though I like him, could still be maybe a question mark as like a
decade long problem solver at the position, gets the second most money.
ever and then it's like yeah he unfollowed him he unfollow him because you pissed there for a little
while dude i things have changed things have they right maybe maybe they should do it no no it doesn't
fucking work i mean no it doesn't matter like it doesn't matter it's not gonna equate to
22 targets for well maybe it will no when the rams cut me the next year we played them in new
england i visited their locker room upon request because william hayes wanted me to come by
Just do the same thing you're talking about.
Just show them that it's okay.
It's not a big deal.
I'm in the locker room after the game.
No, a half game.
After game.
I'm going to the locker room before the game.
Oh, right.
That's like a big faux pa.
Coach K sort of thing.
Yeah, that's faux pa.
Yeah, so Florida, this Richardson kid,
you made the point that you think he could be a Heisman dude.
I mean, obviously he plays like that every week.
He's going to be a Heisman dude.
He should be in the conversation.
And I agree with you.
But I just want to go to,
down to Florida for a second, that kid to me feels like a Heisman candidate because he's,
everything he's doing looks so fucking cool. And I think that's part of the prerequisite of being a
Heisman guy. Like it's got to feel, it's got to look cool. It's got to be, you know, Florida helps.
Like, I don't know, not that you get docked for Georgia, but this kid like, I've never seen anybody
make a play like he made on a two point conversion. When he took off for 45 yards, you know,
like they're in man. And not only is he fast.
enough to go score him climbing from 10 yards deep in the pocket to 20 yards on the field like like
that you know like you just can't you can't play man like he the the throw he made at the end of the
game you know in two point conversion like that's a Heisman moment week one dude I don't care if he's
not going to throw the ball for as many yards as Stetson I if a guy plays like that he's the
Heisman trophy winner in my opinion is it stats or is it kind of like the vibe of the guy's
season.
I feel like when Tebow won his, it was so stats heavy because we still weren't quite
used to like what these guys were doing and spread offenses.
And so that year, that wasn't even the best Florida team.
I think they had three losses when he won it.
I don't know.
You get it on this double check it.
But he had like 50 touchdowns.
You're just like, well, I got to give it to this guy.
And still, Tebow was one of the best college football players of his generation.
So, you know, none of this is inaccurate to want to do it.
I think it takes away more than just the stats now.
So I thought there were some super stat heavy guys and certain offenses that count.
is like Kellen Moore that year, I felt like every time they were, you know, first, second, third,
and fourth and goal, they were like, you know what, like, let's just get him another touchdown.
Right.
See what happens.
Like, let's just three yards out.
We could hand it off and probably score because they're just that much better than everybody
else in the conference, but let's get Kellen another TD.
You know, the, the Heism thing is very weird.
When I was a kid, you needed the entire offseason campaign.
It's much like politics, which I know you don't want to get into, but you can be a presidential
for candidate, like, out of nowhere now, where you basically had to be, like, the vice president
before against, you know, somebody that was well-known, a decades-plus senator. And now I felt,
and I felt this now for years, if you go in as kind of not necessarily the incumbent as the previous
winner like a Bryce Young, but as somebody that has the best odds, and again, you can throw Bryce
and for this year if you want, you almost have to do more to keep that seat. You know,
there's so much information now that it almost becomes an expert.
expectation vote where it's like, well, wait, I mean, if you're the favor, I need you to do this,
where then later on, the momentum can change so much quicker with the voting where, again, a lot of
the voters, I think it's one of the least educated voter bases of if you really look at how many people
have a Heisman vote, it's massive. You know, I've worked with some people that I have a ton of
respect for that have Heisman votes. I've also worked with some other people. I'm like, I can't
fucking believe this person has a Heisman vote. And so, you know, I think voters really can get caught
up in the storyline part of it as well, too. So, you know,
Florida, they're going to have to at least compete there.
You know, like if Georgia puts it on them,
it's going to be hard for Richardson to win at Heisman.
Yeah.
But, you know, Stetson Bennett was 100 to 1.
And now he's 20 to 1.
I mean, he was behind Spencer Rattler at South Carolina.
He was behind like 10 running backs, you know, which, you know,
good luck for a running back having a win at this thing now.
You know, I hate to do this thing, but I'll do it.
Like, he just looks like he looks like a pro quarterback.
He looks like a real good pro quarterback.
And I got to see him throw the ball more obviously, but just athletically.
I like that he trusted, like he gave the pocket a chance.
And then was like, okay, now I'll do this.
Like some of the other guys that we were watching, like we were all watching the Buffalo
game together.
And I'm like, man, this kid is struggling.
Like when you want to run because you don't trust your arm, I thought that Richardson
stole pocket mobility.
I thought he showed a lot of the arm angle stuff.
He showed like when he really wanted to size it up in like a 15-yard crossing route,
like it was locked in.
So it wasn't just the athleticism and all that stuff,
but you still have to show me that you trust yourself from the pocket.
And a lot of these guys that are really,
really talented don't necessarily have that.
And I think that's been a huge improvement from when I saw last year.
I guess what I'm saying is he may not win the Heism
because his numbers might not be gaudy enough.
Georgia might blow him out, like all that stuff.
But if there's a guy who's going to make me watch a channel this year,
like it's going to be him and it's must see TV.
And like not to mention the stuff offensively,
when that cat fumbled early in the game
and Utah picked the ball up
and Richardson hawked that number 11 kid for Utah
who can run.
Richardson looks insanely fast and physical.
He shoved him into the fucking kicking that dude.
I was like,
it was like watching Julio Jones,
I don't want to exaggerate.
But like when Julio got to play defense,
he just was moving, man.
And he is a smooth strider, man.
He's fun to watch.
And then the backs are cool too.
Trevor, ETN.
Johnson,
uh,
the other one who kind of,
had that ceiling touch shot. I'm with you.
Like I can't believe Florida goes this long
without motherfuckers at receiver though.
I know Jefferson's in the league. Tony.
Yeah, I mean, I really like him.
One of his favorite players, Cadarious, Tony.
You draft him?
His team did.
The Giants.
Yeah, New York Giants.
How did that happen?
When I was a wee boy,
I had a brother who would go up to RFK
and come back and beat me up with a seat cushion.
And so I grew to really hate it.
the team in Washington.
And then I look up in this
this guy Mark Bavarro
is scoring touchdowns all over
all over Washington and blue was my
favorite color. If you can believe that.
And so, you know,
I'm a young buck, I say like that team
and the 96 comes. They draft Tiki Barber.
Yeah, that's all she wrote.
His dog name Tiki. Yeah, had a dog
named Tiki, RIP. Dead.
Yeah, very dead.
Dead are alive.
Good story.
I think Ronde's dead.
No, no, no, no.
We're talking about the dogs here. Ronde should be in the Hall of Fame.
Pete Gellon is dead.
Okay, no, he's not.
That's Rex Chatton.
This is, by the way, I know all of these people are alive,
which is after I saw your greatest hits of getting everybody wrong
and saying they were all dead, that was unbelievable.
Yeah, it continues.
But yeah, the Utah kid just didn't need to make that throw at the end of the game.
Otherwise, they might win that ball game.
I like Georgia though see you in rising hanging out
I know me and Whittingham
hanging out that's what needs to happen
I want to hang out with that guy that guy's a fucking beast
all right Georgia dude
that was like an NC 17 beating
like I've said earlier
I felt like there were two different kinds of camps
that those teams were allowed to have like Georgia was allowed
to do full contact every day and
Oregon was like they'd been
you know doing one of those fast practices
that people do on Thursday perpetually
because they were just getting
not only were they getting out physical,
they were just getting picked on,
like in coverage, the backers, like,
that was, that showed the gap,
the Delta between the PAC 12 and the SEC
better than any game I've seen in the past five, seven years.
Pac-12 is one and eight now in week one openers against the SEC.
You know, we could talk about distance and travel
and, you know, Oregon going to Georgia
and playing in Atlanta, not at Athens,
but is it 46 points?
I mean, give me a break.
That was a beating.
I'm not a Bowenix guy.
I would love to know the truth serum part of it for Dan Lannning.
Because he still recruited guys that, you know, had even played yet.
Like Malachi starts the corner that picks off that first ball.
It's just an insane, yeah, five-star corner.
And I had heard after I talked about, because I was like,
maybe Georgia has a little hangover.
I was trying to do a little something different on the playoff thing.
So I left him out.
I put A&M in.
I'm worried that Haynes King is ever going to make it through this season
because he couldn't make it through the last.
last one. I just don't like the way that dude runs.
Even though it's pretty athletic,
I'm just like, man, I'm afraid this guy's going to get crunched.
I know exactly what you mean.
I would love to know what Lanning actually thought was going to happen
because he had recruited all those dudes.
He knew what was going on in the depth chart.
But Georgia was telling people, we are fine.
We're fine.
Like we know we lost a million NFL guys.
We're fine.
And, you know, this might be Bama East,
which is horrifying because, you know,
we're still in the midst of the greatest run in the history of college football of what they're
doing in Tuscaloosa.
Well, that's the, that's the scariest part.
Kirby's younger.
Like, I don't know if he has aspirations of leaving ever to go coaching the NFL, but like,
I don't know.
I'd rather be one of those guys.
I would do.
You're going.
I don't, yeah, I just, I'll stay here.
I have a massive advantage.
Free agency is tilted in my favor every single year.
I'm in one of the best recruiting bases in the entire country.
I am a little bit younger.
Now I have the resume.
He's played for two titles.
Got the other one.
You know, once you get that thing rolling, what's the point?
What's the point to go, you know, 97?
You live in Athens.
Yeah, Athens, Georgia.
Wide spreads there all the time.
Wide spreads there all the time.
They probably still have a mellow mushroom.
So, yeah, no, like, I just look at Georgia now, and it's funny.
I saw them play Baylor a couple years ago, and it felt personal.
Like, and Baylor didn't do anything to them, but you're just like,
they really feel like they want to kill the other team that comes in and dares
to play football against them.
That's like the,
that's the feeling I get in these big out of conference matchups.
And I was like,
what the fuck did Georgia do?
What,
what did Oregon do to them?
Like,
like legitimately,
it felt the noises that come out of,
off the sideline and off the line,
like when Georgia is pissed off and beating somebody like this,
they're guttural.
Like,
they're just,
it's,
it's like the sandlot dog.
Like,
don't go back there,
dude.
And it's scary.
They got fucking four tight ends.
They have the,
cockback.
guy Brock Bowers, Steve's guy.
But my favorite guy is the fucking number zero titan.
He's six foot seven.
Washington.
Oh my God.
That guy's huge.
He's out there catching the ball.
They got Gilbert too,
the LSU kid who looks like a top 10 pick when he's playing two years ago.
Dude,
it's an embarrassment of riches.
Delp comes in.
And so Herb Street called the best tight end room in the history of college football.
And as I was watching his preview show,
I did like a double take because I'm like, wait, okay.
So all the teams that have ever existed with any tight end like this.
And then you go and look.
who the dudes are. Gilbert would be an all-American
unlike every other team.
Yeah.
You know, maybe except for Notre Dame because mayor is there,
and Gilbert needs to, you know, lock it up a little bit more
because he didn't even really, they didn't even need them in this game.
No, it was awesome.
He was awesome and he was running around for LSU two years ago.
I just look at it like 493, this team, you know,
they got a chance to stop, you know, no touchdowns for Oregon,
which is kind of a big deal if you're like blowing a team out.
You know, a lot of teams, they're kind of locked in.
there's maybe some subs in and guys aren't that focused,
but it just felt like from the sideline to the stands,
everybody was so fucking into it.
And they got to stop on,
I think it was fourth down at the end of the game.
And it's a little thing,
but it's like this team is just,
they're just different right now.
I mean,
it does scare you.
If you're tired of Bama,
well,
fuck,
here's Georgia for the next 10 years.
I don't know.
And Jalen Carter didn't even like do a fuck ton.
Like,
He had a couple plays, but it wasn't like he was dominant.
Hot or not, Rye, Stetson Bennett?
Attractiveness?
Yes.
Did you see that video?
That guy asking a Yankees fan?
Like who the hottest Yankee was?
He said, fuck that.
Fuck that is Derek.
It's Derek Jeter.
Yeah.
It was really the guy really didn't want to say.
He's like, you can't admit like another guy's good looking.
He's like, no.
And I was like, this guy's awesome.
So is that your answer for the Stetson question?
No.
Is he good looking?
No, you know, I think
I think he'd be like
I look at it this way.
Would a girl show up to her apartment the next day
and brag about hooking up Stets and Bennett
if he wasn't the quarterback, Georgia?
No, she'd be like, he's kind of cute.
This frat guy?
It'd be like, I mean, he's...
Sneaky hot guys.
I don't, I'm not like, I can't.
No, I like the way he carries himself.
Maybe you're right.
No, I think Stets and Bennett's having no problem
in Athens.
I don't think anybody should.
But yeah, it comes to the territory.
But yeah, no, no, I just think she'd be like,
oh, kind of cute, this guy.
But yeah, this adds a lot.
He plays quarterback for Georgia.
And he's like,
Yeah, I don't want to hear it.
It doesn't, it has, it's irrelevant.
It's like when somebody, we always joke about this,
but like when somebody would be like, oh, you should see so-and-so's wife and be like,
oh, that hockey player is banked a hundred million who's actually like a decent looking
guy.
Incredible.
He has a hot girlfriend from Montreal.
No way.
She should do a documentary on this guy.
Is everybody else know this?
The Colombian soccer player's wife is decent.
No, it's so stupid.
Man, that guy's got game.
You must have game.
Like, that guy at SC was really good looking.
Have you seen his Instagram model girlfriend?
Is she hot?
Yeah.
Since a man, lucky guy.
Lucky her.
Big Ten, Ohio State.
I don't know what you thought about that game, but.
I like that they won it with their defense because the offense is going to be fine.
Because, you know, Smith and Jigboe, who was in and out of the game,
Stover's good.
at Buka and then Marvin Harrison Jr.
People joking around, Colin Harvin.
They're loaded.
Again, and the thing is, too, it's like May and the backup running back kind of sealed it,
and he had that huge third down catch.
And Henderson's terrific.
So the skill stuff with Stroud, it's not an issue.
The big thing is the younger recruits impacting the game defensively
because I would say they were a little thin with NFL talent last year,
which is true.
And I thought it was a great sign for Buckeyes fans that they won with defense because
I'd be shocked at the offense struggle this year.
Like they struggled against Notre Dame, week one, okay, whatever.
But there's just talent-wise.
There's no excuse because of the offensive talent.
So if the defense, like I thought Notre Dame had no chance in the second half.
Like watching it, I'm going, what do they have that I like?
What's their go-to?
And other than mayor just winning a one-on-one, there wasn't really much Bucker could do.
He completed two passes.
They had 70 yards in the second half.
And mayor looked like gronk on that fucking reception in the second quarter where he fumbled.
He's a freak.
I mean, like, Steve does talk him up and like probably would probably would hook up with him.
Yeah.
But like, but it's fucking, he is ridiculous.
And I got to tell you, this Notre Dame team, Matt Bayless, I've mentioned him before in the pod.
He was my strength coaching college.
Like, he is just a wizard, man.
Like he gets people in great shape.
And Notre Dame, when we went down in the field to see them with Steve.
Steve last year, I was like, man, yeah, I can see the Matt Bayless effect.
When you talk to guys in that program, they talk about how different he is and what an X factory is.
To get a Notre Dame team out of training camp, those guys are fucking war ready, dude.
Those guys are strong, they're physical.
They may not be the best team in the world, but for Ohio State to beat them like that in kind of a slug fest,
down to that last drive, I think it was like 14 plays, that's a good way to win a game for your Ohio State.
Because when I think about Ohio State more lately, and maybe I'm just not watching enough Big Ten,
but they just throw the ball around.
You know, it's like for them to win that kind of game was pretty awesome.
And Strout played well.
I mean, yeah, third and three at the end of the game,
he had to roll out and like bail out to his left and fucking hit the back on the sideline.
Like that's a big time throw.
So, yeah, it's not a dynamic blowout win that people are going to be excited about.
But you got to feel good if you're in Ohio State, man.
Yeah, nothing, you know, everybody wants to win 50 to 3 in the first week.
and, you know, whatever, Notre Dame is a talented football team.
They are.
You know, maybe I don't love the receivers.
I got to see more for Buckner, a quarterback.
But, you know, they play the tough place and played a team that most people have going
to the playoff anyway.
So, you know, I'm not, I don't, I just don't like the whole write everything off and
hey, George is just going to win again.
Yeah.
Can we play a couple more games?
I'm with you.
I'm with you.
It's just that team looks so fucking angry.
It's amazing.

Life Advise is the segment that we do a lot.
Yeah.
Life advice.
So we just figured today we could do a life advice segment.
Yeah.
Ryan does a life advice segment on his show.
It's a little bit different.
Spelled differently.
It's a different segment.
Do you want to go first?
No.
Talk about your arm.
Yeah.
Okay.
So I'm in a softball league, Ryan.
And I had a really good first game.
I was really nervous.
Honestly, I told people in this show was more nervous than like when I played football.
and everything went great.
I hit the fucking cover off the softball.
But out in left field got a lot of traffic, right?
Because people pull the ball.
And my right shoulder is not so great.
If you look at my right shoulder in the mirror,
it like sits two inches lower than my left.
We can probably just look at it.
We don't need to look at it in the mirror.
Well, I know.
I have to have my shirt off.
Yeah, no, I don't know.
Got it.
Take your shirt up now.
I'm not going to do it.
So I threw my arm out, basically.
Three throws in.
I was like, this isn't good, but I don't want to pull myself out of the ball game.
I think I made it worse.
I have a game tonight.
I also did upper body this morning accidentally because of Labor Day.
I was confused what day it was.
And that's a no-no before a softball game.
You don't want to tighten the muscles up before you go out and throw.
Bottom line is, I need a new position, but I don't want to be a huge baby about it.
And I don't want the skipper to think I'm like, you know, his name's Fabio.
name is literally Fabio.
Is he a player's first guy?
He seems like a player.
No, he seems like a players.
I mean, he did kind of roll over easy on me after the first game of the double header.
I was betting like seven and then three, the second, you know, he should have made me earn it a little more.
Is he more like Jim Leland or a little Terry Francona?
Tito for sure.
Is that Terry?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So what do I do?
Because in what position should I like ask to, I don't want to DH because, I don't want to DH because
that sucks.
Yeah, well, the problem here is, and you did what
everybody does, like anybody that's ever growing up
throwing stuff, like most of us have, you know,
the play sports, uh, when you don't
do it for a long time, especially
when you're older, it really sends the body into a shot.
Because you just start thinking like, oh, I can just throw a seed into the
cutoff guy or maybe I try to get some over the third coming around.
Yeah, over the cutoff guy.
You know, a little, yes, he'll tweak stuff.
Do you realize the guy who's standing in between the target
that you're throwing to was expecting the baseball? And he was like,
what fuck are you talking about? Why would I do that? Why would I do that when I could just throw a seed
north? That's me minus the seed. You needed to build it up, man. Like, Brady wouldn't do that.
Brady wouldn't start the season without some soft toss. So you need to kind of like, I think,
get that thing up to speed. Yeah. Like if you really care, if you really care about not being a
DH and you really care about gunning guys down, you're going to get a little time in there. Get
mega glove. You get something you guys could do together. Yeah. And, you know, build up that arm strength.
because it's all there.
You just, when you don't do that motion for a really long time throwing stuff,
like I hadn't thrown a football in forever, and I figured like, I don't know a problem.
It was horrifying.
I almost left the beach because I just hadn't thrown one in forever.
So I'm just telling you, just work on that part, build the arm up.
And I think a lot of that will solve itself.
Meg would have judged you.
She really, the way I judge everything, she judged, I think I get it from her.
She judges guys that can't throw well, including like our son.
When he didn't throw well, she was like, oh, this thing will be good.
And he's like four.
So maybe I should watch quarterbacks.
You're going to break his arm and retrain him.
You can break his arm and retrain him.
That's probably A-OK in 2022.
Hey, so if I was going to play a position,
I was thinking maybe like second base because I don't want to be a catcher.
That always feels like you're going to hit with the bat.
Catchers out.
No, way.
You can't be a catcher.
No, can't.
Can't be a catcher.
Bad for your back.
Second base doesn't get a lot of traffic.
I don't know if I trust you to cover second base quick enough, though.
We're trying to turn two.
I'm still quick, bro, like cat.
Okay.
Okay, never mind.
Okay, so I just need to, you're just telling me to warm up.
I'm telling you in between games, just, you know, 10 feet out, 20 feet out, 30 feet out,
it's a world of difference.
Okay, I've done it both ways.
And I, too, had to wear a brace of my elbow for like an entire softball season
because I just went right out there and started trying to throw hoses all over the place.
And then I was like, oh, wait, like my arm just, you know, this is cool when you're a teenager.
Yeah.
It doesn't work as you can.
Man, I was thinking about that the other day.
I just miss youth.
Just the way it felt to just throw a ball, no problem.
I had a little floater for the game making the other day,
fourth pickup game.
Guy hit my left elbow so hard.
I thought he broke it.
Didn't have feeling in my pinky or ring finger for an entire week.
And if I push on the elbow again,
all the nerve shut down on the left side of my left arm.
Did you call a foul?
Did he call the foul?
No, it's for game to win in floater.
how do you.
So good, though.
He definitely talked about his pinky in the group chat.
I know.
I got to check myself on the group chat stuff
because I'm starting to feel like that uncle that sends you
like the chocolate rain YouTube video being like,
hey,
have you seen this?
No, dude.
Keep it going.
I live for you in that group chat.
There's too many times now where I've noticed,
like, okay, nobody responded to this.
Ryan,
should I be taking multivitamins?
It's a great question.
I take them big on the fish oil.
Yeah.
I got a new like a cleansing thing that I'm taking for a month.
I don't know.
I don't know if it's going to work or not.
I don't know.
You know, here's what I kind of always feel like.
It's almost like in a new set of sneaks.
You go play hoops.
You're younger.
You're like, dude, it's on today.
Yeah.
So even if it doesn't work, the placebo effect alone.
For sure.
I think it makes you feel better.
So, you know.
expensive hobby percentage of of of of daily value i didn't like do i need 6,000 percent of thiamen
actually you do wow really 6,000 percent yeah thymen is the one if there is one that's is it thymine
maybe yeah all right i got a nutrition question is zen bad for you i have no idea
i got to tell you i know the part of my take guys talk about zen so i see it on their socials and
everything. Um, I just started packing Zins on the way back from the river. And those,
that's like jet fuel in there. Like, there's a lot of nicotine in there. I just have a hard
time believing it's not bad for you. I don't see how it's good for you. But, but nobody's
telling me how it's bad for me. See what I mean? Yeah. No, I don't know, man. I mean,
you're coming back from the river. Who knows? Yeah. I mean, like that guy in Brazil, imagine
giving that guy's in. All right. So there's a guy in a tribe in Brazil just,
died and it's like the last uncontacted man.
So we were wondering,
what would you show him before he died if you could?
It's a crazy thought.
Because this guy's never seen anything.
I mean,
I want to overstate the obvious here for people at home.
He's part of an uncontacted tribe.
And that means nothing.
Indigenous person.
Like my man is living out there.
He died in a hammock.
Good for him of all places.
But he hasn't seen shit.
So what would you show him?
Maybe he's seen, I know what you're saying.
He's seen more than us.
And he thinks we haven't seen shit.
That's fair.
Fair is fair as fuck.
Yeah.
I think he'd come around to our side of things pretty quickly, though.
He started showing him like stuff on an iPhone.
Yeah.
Like was he going to sit there and debate you?
Yeah.
You know?
Like, hey, you've hung out with zero people in 26 years and I'm from.
I think it would scare him.
I'm from the DMV area.
Yeah.
I would share, I would get him chicken fingers.
I don't know that I've ever met anybody that was like, what are these?
I don't like them.
The chicken fingers would be incredible.
Imagine him getting some chicken fingers and then you introduce him to the bevy of sauces.
Like when Napoleon.
I'm going to stop digging holes and hiding in him.
Napoleon from Bill and Ted's excellent adventure when they give him the ice cream.
Like he's never seen it before.
It's just like he can't get enough.
Yeah, they had ice cream.
Oh, they did in France.
Versions of a lot of like
puddings and I don't know.
At the time I read about these dinners
and like, oh, it was jelly tart. Jellies were big.
Jellies were like the big thing. We put jellies on stuff.
The reason I wanted to bring this up is I just finished River Dout.
Teddy Roosevelt, I believe in 1914,
decides to head down to South America.
I needed a bit of a challenge.
And he hooks up with this guy, Colonel Candido Rondone.
who was born in 1865, made it until 92 years old.
Anyway, so they decided to go up this part of the inner Amazon,
and they're completely like,
the guy that did the packing for it was some guy that ran a sporting good store
and fucked up some expedition to the North Pole.
And then there was some father from Notre Dame that, like,
was just the biggest clout chaser ever that wanted to go on the trip.
And they were like, dude, so like, so when they started the expedition, they knew immediately, like, we have the wrong materials because the sporting goods guy.
And then father, annoying, he's just like, you're going to have to go the other way on a different trail.
And we'll catch up with you later.
So Roosevelt leaves with Rondon and they start heading these areas that have never actually been inhabited by non-Indigenous people.
And they brought the wrong canoes.
And Rondon was convinced like he wanted to survey the area, survey these rivers that hadn't really been a.
explore because they had done some telegraph wire, but they had stopped a certain point. And
that's where Roosevelt wanted to keep going east and head down these rivers. Again, no one had
ever seen. Constant rapids, constant waterfalls, having to like take the canoes out and then roll
them corduroyum. That's why they call them corduroy pants. Corteroyum over logs to roll them on
the land and then get them back into the water. So like you might do a mile in a day. And it was brutal.
The food was wrong because the guy that did all the provisions would be like, oh, let's make sure you
have like biscuits and and like, you know, desserts.
And they're like, bro, we need flour.
Yeah.
We eat.
Yeah.
We need like basic shit.
Pork fat, salt.
Like this is what we need.
Corn nuts.
Well, actually, biscuits would be a decent, you know, there's probably be some other stuff
that wasn't going to hold up.
So Rondon's like, no, I want to survey everything.
So he and Roosevelt start kind of like going out a little bit.
And Roosevelt has like the utmost respect for this guy.
Because Rondon was his rule was of his soldiers that he, he commanded.
He's like, when we run across these native tribes, never shoot back for like the greater growth that had attempted peace.
Right.
And the guys would be like, are you fucking nuts?
Yeah.
Like, they're shooting at us.
They're running at us.
And they're like, the only way we can avoid conflict is by not initiating it and not returning it.
So like, again, a tough guy to be in his command if you're sitting there with a gun and natives are coming after you.
because they've never seen anybody like you before.
And they're realizing like, yeah, you're fucking with us here, which again,
totally like clearly, I'm reading the pioneers right now and all the stuff that was
happening in the Ohio Valley.
Like, you can totally get why these towns are just being massacred all the time.
Because you're like, you guys keep setting up these camps and saying that you're only
going to go this far and you keep pushing the line back and back back.
So anyway, Rondone and Roosevelt are battling, but Roosevelt have so much respect because
Roosevelt loved badasses.
Again, the original scrawny guy who got Jack.
So I have a ton of respect for that.
He started working out as a gazebo back.
in the late 1800s because he was scrawny, he hated it, took up boxing, did better at Harvard
than I did at UVM. But Roosevelt was like, hey, we got to get going. And Rondone would tell
the canoe makers when they'd lose canoes because they'd get smashed up all the time and
happen to make a new fresh one. He'd be like, go slow so that I can survey the area and do the
top of graphic stuff and have our mat people on it. So then Roosevelt, like, fucking this guy.
Roosevelt cuts his leg, it's really sick. Everybody's got malaria the whole time. They lost a guy
over the falls, just bury them, move on.
Tribes are kind of following them the entire time.
Do you go get the guy?
That guy, there was one guy that couldn't find.
Then there was another guy that was apparently jacked, but super lazy that was under
Rondon's control, I don't know, command.
And then he fucking went off the deep end himself, TBD on that one.
I don't want to spoil the book for anybody.
But Roosevelt gets so sick from this cut that he's like, I'm good.
I'm just slowing things down.
Leave me here.
I'm done.
Like, I can't go on.
And he keeps, I think I did send this to the threat, no response.
Roosevelt, for every expedition felt like if there was one person that was going to put
everybody else of harm, it was up to him to kill himself.
So he kept with him a vial of poison and told his son, Kermit, who was also on the expedition,
he's like, I'm just going to kill myself in this tent.
I'm sweating.
I've got a fever.
It's not going away.
The infection's getting worse.
I can barely walk.
I'm ruining the entire expedition for these long stretches.
He's like, I'm just going to take the post.
in here and that's that. Like Teddy Roosevelt's like, I'm good. You know, like, and he was like,
he's so not afraid. He's like, I've had a great life. He's like, I'm okay with dying. And they're
like, you can't do it. And then they were like, really worried. They're like, we can't have the
former president removed only, you know, single digit years from his presidency. We can't just have
them die in this thing. But they had no idea how far away they were. So they finally start making
it out the first time they see people with any, you know, sense of civilization is these rubber
rubber plant trapper type guys. Again, trapping is probably the wrong term.
for it. But the funny thing I always thought was that you would announce your piece by shooting
your gun in the air three times. I'm like, that's the best way you could announce. That's what they
would do? That's what they would do. So you don't shoot at people that are shooting at you and you
shoot to let them know everything's okay. The rubber people were different than the indigenous people
and they would have their own nightmare stories. But when these guys came out from the river side that
they came out from, they were like, are you guys fucking kidding? Like you just went through there.
And meanwhile, according to legend in the book, the tribes followed him the entire.
entire time. They followed me. They could have taken them out at any point. And what they would do
is they would constantly leave gifts behind just in case. Like if they saw a village that was empty
and it could be that scouts were up ahead saying, hey, these guys are coming down, these white guys
and these terrible canoes, although Rondon was Brazilian. And much of the command was, they're like,
you can, you know, like let's abandon the village. And then they'd show up and they see like, you know,
it was like, you know, it was like, you know, like Linneeswood movies. You check the fire.
Which are great. See how fresh.
it is. You seem to be a little tight on some.
Apocalypse. Oh, set in South America, much like this book.
Man with no name, all of them, great, unforgiving great. All right.
So back to, I'm almost done here.
They would leave little stuff. I don't know how many axes you would bring.
It's kind of like cigarettes, I guess, back in the day when people smoked all the time.
Just constant, like, unlimited supply of axes, but like leave some beads and axes, right in the middle of the village to let them know that we're friends.
They would leave gifts to be like, please don't kill us.
And as they make it to the end, they realized like the entire time they were being trapped.
and they,
walking into a trap.
Yeah, but they didn't,
they made it out.
They made it out.
But like Roosevelt was so down,
he was so down for the team.
He was such a we versus me guy.
Yeah.
He's like,
I'm going to drink poison tonight
because I'm slowing us down.
Dude,
what a great guy.
I wish.
Yeah,
he didn't read more on Teddy.
So would you show this guy porn or what?
I was thinking of showing him Miles Garrett.
What about Miles Davis?
Yeah, he would be.
like, holy shit, this sounds amazing.
But if you saw Miles Garrett, he'd be like, holy shit, dude.
I'd hand him River of Doubt by Candice Millard.
So you're getting ears in.
She has a new one out.
You really painted that nicely.
I was following along with you.
Yeah, it almost makes me want to read.
Almost, yeah.
Yeah, he sent me a grant book once, and I just stare at it all the time.
And I'm like, man, I know there's some good shit in there,
but I can barely do like a shoulder.
a older rehab program. Imagine reading a book as tall as my son. Is it called Grand
Bain chance? That was a mistake. That was a mistake. I said,
Churnow. Yeah, I think we had a thousand page were on churn out. Like I didn't
entry. I could have brought you so long slowly. Maybe Mayflower by Philbrick,
which is my favorite book on history ever. I think it's every, I think everyone should read
that. Mayflower? Mayflower. About the pilgrims? It's just amazing, dude. They anchor off the cape.
And however many people were on the Mayflower, by the time they, like, you're like, hey, we're
here against the cape we anchored and then they're like okay but we need to figure out like the right
spot to anchor we can't screw up the hull of the boat i get that as much as anybody we got to figure out
you know what's the best place and they sat there for so long so you make the trip across the
atlantic when they anchored half the people died before they actually got off the boat talk about
the ultimate tease no you think you've made it and you're like hold on we're going to take out some
row boats. We're going to scout the area. We're going to do this. And they kept going up and down
the Cape. They couldn't figure out like a safe anchoring area. And honestly, the funniest thing about
the Plymouth's. Yeah, yeah. You're like, hey, there's land. This is going to be great. I'm getting
off the boat. And it's like, no, we're not ready yet. We're going to, half of you are going to die.
And then the funniest part about that book, it's just classic Boston, classic Massachusetts.
Plymouth plantation, you know, they're, I don't know, 10, 11 years into it. And some guys go walk
north. Let's see what else is going on around here in the state. And they get to Boston. And they're
like deepest harbor, so safe for the boats, right into a massive river, totally perfect. Like could
not be more perfect for our nautical needs. And then guys were like, why did, like, do you want to
come with us to this way better spot? And the people in Plymouth were like, I don't know, we put all this
fucking work in. We get cabins and trenches and shit. We're just going to stay here. And it's like,
All right, we're going to go up here and start the biggest city in the new country.
I would have gone to the brain tree mall.
It's on the way.
Yeah, I would have just gone there and stayed.
Getting to fights with parking lot.
It's a great mall, dude.
Are you a William Bradford fan?
Have you read of Plymouth Plantation?
I don't think I have.
I'll go back to the first question.
Have you guys read?
Are you a William Bradford?
Have you guys read who would win?
I'm not as read up on him.
So the answer is no.
I have other guys ahead of them in my time.
you.
Okay.
Goose bumps.
Aral Stein.
K.
You know the book K?
Had to read it for school?
Mm-mm.
Okay.
Ryan Rissillo, got a little history, got a little college football, got a little
hairy styles, dude.
Guys, a fucking Renaissance, man.
Appreciate you, buddy.
Yeah.
No, I'm looking up Bradford now.
Yeah, I can understand why I hadn't really picked up on this.
There's, like, I read a recent thing where it was like all these papers of Ben Franklin,
and it was really educational.
can be a tough read when you're reading like their verbiage.
Indeed.
That's true.
That's true.
Not quite there yet.
The thous and shit.
Thou?
Yeah.
Have you gotten the text messages I've sent you during this interview?

Hey, Macon, I'd like to tell you about a book I'm reading.
It's called The Iliad.
All right, so what did you remember from,
Ryan's story. Oh, this is a good one. Yeah. So there's a guy named Ron Dohn. Ron Done. Okay. And maybe I was
thinking of Carlos Rodon, the baseball pitcher the entire time. So he went down to the Amazon and they had to
put more like lines in. So they go down there and prospect the whole thing. The guy had a canoe.
They weren't well made. They weren't well made. So you had to corduroy him over wood, which is why they
call him corduroys. Pants. And you know, Roosevelt, he really liked like men.
men so Teddy Roosevelt was there yeah Roosevelt was a former president yeah shortly
after his presidency yeah but this guy Rondone he didn't shoot at the enemies when
they shot it is the listener for having to listen to that once and how listen to it
well I just show you that I was listening I know no I think it's a good
so they're shooting at the so you so people are like shooting at him and he's like what
and everybody's like what the fuck shoot back and he's like I don't shoot back
yeah you know and but but peace bang back bang but former president he's
He's like, I can respect that.
Yeah.
You know?
So they kind of like, they kind of talked a lot along the river and they were like,
yeah, we can't do that.
But then at one point, Roosevelt gets a cut on his leg.
Yeah.
And he's like, man, I'm not doing good.
I'm down bad.
Leave me behind.
Yeah.
Leave me where I am.
You guys go.
I'm too slow.
Everybody's got poison pills on.
Yeah.
So he's got poison.
And he told his son, Kermit.
So Roosevelt sits back there and he's like, fuck.
And then next thing you know, he's on the Mayflower.
And then.
And then so he's rolling up.
Half everybody's dying.
And half everybody's dying because you got to go up and down the Cape.
And then there's people that live in and they were living in.
Hold on.
Oh, I got it.
You got it?
Plymouth.
And people were like, yeah, we found this place.
It's got a big wide harbor.
It's got a river.
Big wide river.
We can park our cars.
We park our cars there.
the fucking yeah so they're like nah we don't want to go anywhere but boston's right there dude
yeah like boston is right there yeah another thing about the book there there were guys falling
over the waterfalls a lot the problem on this expedition was not only the the snakes and the
fish and the river but it was sometimes that the river would go over the edge right and create a waterfall
no nope nope failing to plan is planning to fail
Pretty much.
But they didn't have an opportunity to plan because they were the very first to ever plan
an expedition like this of the of the Caucasoids.
Yeah.
Really well done by you.
You're a good listener.
Thanks.
I never got to say, I don't think, what I would show the indigenous person who just died.
How about Ryan was like chicken tenders?
Anyways.
Chicken fingers for sure.
Now let me tell you about this book.
I have 24 bullet points.
I need to get off.
Yeah, I would sit the guy in the middle seat.
I'd have him taxi for takeoff for about two hours.
And then I'd inform him that the crew has been working for too many hours.
And we got to go back to the terminal.
Just what the fuck are you people doing?
I'd like to zap him into like Baton Rouge for an LSU games
since we were just talking about Ryan's favorite school.
Show him.
It's not going to be winning football.
Colorado Buffalo is running out with Ralphie.
Oh my God.
It'd be like, ah, huh?
I'd want to show him an NFT, see if he understands it.
Maybe you can explain it to us.
Adam Lefco couldn't.
I love Lefco, but, you know, he was on the show,
and he was talking about NFTs, and I was like,
I'm no closer to being in on NFTs, man.
I'm just not, you know, it's okay.
Be like me explaining kayaking to Adam Lefco.
I don't understand
How about just like
sunscreen
That's provocative
It's provocative
Or like chapstick
His lips are probably chapped as fuck
No they're probably great
Toilet paper
Oh you know what a bidet
Reed
Since you're a big bidet guy
You are a big bidet guy
He probably already knows about bidetes
He's all over like rivers and creeks
Oh yeah he's right
The natural bidet
Nature's Bade
That's right
dead, Reed.
He could respect.
It was.
No, he's still, yeah, he is dead.
He's dead.
Well, he was.
He was last week.
He was a lot.
We've moved on.
Yeah.
Is what Reed's trying to say.
But honestly, can you, I mean, it's just, it's insane to me.
Grill cheese.
Grill cheese.
Show him a grill cheese.
I would love, and I'm sure somebody's going to be mad at me for saying this, but I would love to, like,
scoop up an uncontacted guy and take him on an unofficial visit or like an official visit.
to like America.
Do you think he ever had any alcohol?
No,
he's had some like,
he's,
you know what?
You know what?
You know,
like,
how you can smoke a toad?
He probably,
give him some peers.
He,
he can show you some like
ayahuasca type things.
Ayahuasca,
yes.
Take him to meet Aaron Rogers.
They probably already met.
Yeah.
No,
uh,
there's,
it just blows my mind.
Like,
just walking,
imagine the guy walking through Manhattan.
Just like, what the fuck, dude?
I'd want to take him on an official visit.
Show them around.
God rest of the soul, but we can't do it now.
This is ignorant, but, uh, how, uh, like how close would this, is this tribe to, uh, like,
civilization?
Not, not.
No, pretty close.
Really?
You were close to, like, ranchers and the local communities would leave.
Well, one, they would leave, like, things that they thought this.
guy could use in his daily life and he always ignored him.
They left him tools like axes and shovels and stuff and he wouldn't take him.
And one of the theories that the local ranchers had a hand in wiping out, because he was the only
one left, there was a, there was like 20 or 30 of them 10 years ago or 20 or I guess like 30 years
ago.
Yeah.
And reportedly the ranchers wiped him out by leaving out some like,
tainted sugars or something.
And most of the
most of the tribe
took them and then passed away.
Damn. And that's how they got down
to one. Human beings are so shitty.
Like are we talking like a few miles?
Yeah. Okay. Wow.
But I would I would guess
like these aren't cities though. Yeah, no.
Like the nearest like metropolitan area is.
A good ways. But when they drop off an axe, like they're dropping off an axe
out of like an F-250 or what?
No, they're probably leaving it like they're off a horse on like a horse trail.
Yeah, see, it's like putting it out in the woods.
It's out there, dude.
You know, it's way out there.
Yeah, hard to wrap.
I wish I was uncontacted.
Yeah.
I'd like to talk to him about the teachings of the Church of Jesus of Latter-day Saints.
Oh, my God, he would impale you right away.
I got a quick question for you guys.
Ricky Jervais tweeted this out.
You can only keep three.
Beer, pizza, chocolate, swearing, AIDS, coffee.
Netflix, toast, running, ketamine, grandpa, chips, and holidays.
You can only keep three.
I don't care about beer.
I don't really care about pizza.
Fine, fine.
I do like chocolate.
I'm keeping chocolate.
You only keep three?
Okay, AIDS.
Who wants to keep AIDS?
I'm keeping coffee.
Coffee.
Just as bad as AIDS, almost.
Running.
I don't, I hate running.
I'm keeping chocolate, coffee, and holidays.
I don't eat chocolate anymore, really.
So that's,
three off the list.
Beer, pizza, toast.
I don't need toast. I don't need toast.
Running? Yeah, I got to run.
No, you don't need to.
Come live a couple years in my life.
But if I decide to keep running,
am I keeping it forever?
Like, I can run as long as I live.
Yeah, you can include running in your daily team.
Oh, so it's a sport of running.
It's not being able to run.
Not being able to run.
So if I let go running, then I can't run from anything.
I don't do ketamine.
Yeah, no, I hate running.
I'm letting.
Bro, you need to.
run. I have running. Okay, I have running. Don't need holidays. Yeah, you do. Oh, I treat every weekend like a
holiday. I know. Uh, or do you treat every day like a non-holiday? No, it's just more like,
hey, you should be celebrating being alive. You know what I mean? I don't need a fucking, you know,
like, uh, president's day. Well, she's made up anyways. Thanksgiving? This experiment's almost over.
Thanksgiving made up. Uh, yeah. Oh, totally made up. Totally made up. What about, what about Christmas?
Made up.
Wow.
What holiday is not made up?
The biggest holiday is today.
That's some shit that I could go around talking in college football meeting rooms.
I could say some shit like that.
And an SEC coach would have me down tomorrow.
The biggest holiday is two day.
That is really good.
But a lot of people, you know, they work for the weekend.
They work for holidays.
They get days off.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Not going to happen.
Grandpa, I don't have a grandpa anymore.
Reed, you asshole.
Out of grandfas.
Chips.
I'm keeping beer and running.
I'm keeping beer.
I'm keeping running.
I could live without swearing.
If it just didn't come out of my mouth,
like if I was, it was like a,
if it was like being split in severance.
Yeah, you don't like it's shocked.
if you swear. You just can't.
You just can't. No, I'm fine. I'd love that, actually.
Don't need Netflix.
Yeah, beer running
and
Ooh, down to pizza and chips.
God damn.
Chips.
Chips suck, man.
Chips?
What? Yeah. Chips suck?
Chips suck.
Yeah? All chips.
I mean, some can taste good, but like, do you ever feel better after eating chips?
Yeah, sometimes.
Really?
3 a.m.
Hammer drunk, some of those kettle chips.
Fucking, give me some, or you count Cheetos's chips?
Apple chips?
My kid had apple chips the other day.
The only kind of chips I don't like are paint chips.
All the other ones are good.
Friends chips.
Wavy lays.
Think about all.
all the chips in your life that you're not even thinking about it.
Championships.
Uh,
who,
uh,
Eric Estrada.
Chips suck.
Chips suck.
Chips suck.
Chip Kelly?
You get your fingers all,
all greasy,
salty.
I don't want the fucking salt on my hands either.
Chips suck.
Chips suck.
Now,
you want me to rank some chips?
Sure.
Sure.
Uh, one one.
Blue chips.
Salt and vinegar.
Okay.
Salt and vinegar is good.
Okay.
Yeah.
With the second pick
I'll take
Yeah I think chips suck
Salt and Vinegar Chip
Only only worthwhile chip
You can eat chips every Pringles?
No
Oh gross
You don't like Pringles dude
Am I seven?
Am I at recess?
Like no I don't like Pringles
You eat Pringles at recess?
Yeah
Where'd you keep them
In my lunchbox
Your lunchbox
You're a lunchbox
Big enough to fit Pringles
They have the small stacks
Not when we were kids
Or you put them in out
Not when we were kids
Okay you can put them
Put them in a zip-lock bag.
You put them in a Ziploc bag.
Okay.
12 Pringles.
Get crushed.
Probably so, because they suck.
They don't suck, dude.
They don't suck at all.
Pringles suck.
They're perfect.
They're shaped so you can put them in your mouth.
They are ergonomically designed.
Every other chip.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
He just doesn't understand chips.
You're the kind of, you're like me when I hated the Beatles.
Your mouth?
I didn't understand the Beatles.
Now I do.
One day you'll understand chips.
Inside of your mouth is shaped like a pringle?
No, player.
They're curved so that you can get the fucking chip in your mouth.
They're curved so you can stack multiple pringles in like their fold,
like folding chairs the way they fold together.
You can stack them up.
That's the way they fold pringles together.
You can just pop them in your mouth.
And once you pop, you can't stop.
I like this guy on Reddit from two years ago.
Oh, you stole this for Reddit.
I didn't steal this from Reddit.
No one else has this take other than you would.
credit guy. I typed in Pringle's suck and the guys, the title of the guy's post is Pringle's
fucking suck. Fuck that guy. What about multi-grained tortilla chips? Multi-grained tortilla chips.
They're awesome. I've got no problem. Terra chips? Hold on. Slow down. I've got no problem
with a tortilla chip. A Tostito with a salsa. I'm not even talking about that. So you're eating basic
chips, dude. I'm not eating any chips. I'm not eating chips. I don't eat chips. What's the,
Do you know why I'm 170 pounds
Fritos, chili cheese
Fritos?
Sort of exercise.
Chili cheese fucking fritos, dude.
Gross.
You've never had them.
Yeah, because my stomach would be upset.
My stomach would hurt.
Oh my God, dude.
Eat some chili cheese fritos.
Now the Frito,
that's a decent chip.
Sun chips.
Sun chips, again, like, how old are you?
Ruffles.
Wavy lays.
Awful.
All of those are bad.
Kettle chips.
You're Doritos.
Like the OG Doritos and then what the Nacho Rancher or whatever?
Oh, the fucking cool ranch.
Cool ranch.
Chon Rancher.
Nacho rancher.
What?
I think.
Like, nah, I don't like Doritos.
Okay.
I don't like chips.
Funnions?
Ugh.
I don't like funnions either.
Actually, they're not too bad.
It's a good question, Reed.
I'm keeping, uh, I don't eat pizza enough.
Um, like it's a special occasion thing.
And if I, if I stopped eating pizza, I'd probably get really jacked.
So I'll go with the chips.
I'll go with the, the, the, the running, and I'll go with the beer.
We had no overlap.
That makes sense.
Let's give out some superlatives and get out of here.
Guys, we're warming up for the real thing right now.
So next Monday, um, you will be hearing about the, the, the best.
and worst plane ride you'll be hearing fly on the wall you'll be hearing all that stuff
um i'm gonna do some college superlatives you know like i already kind of spoiled it with tech but
they're gonna get like three of them yeah they get a bus ride that's the best part they're
boarding a bus and we're sure about that i mean they bro they're not flying to blacksburg from o to you
that would be like kiley jenner or whoever it was flying their plane 15 minutes i'm just saying when
who was that that flew their plane like
Was it Kylie Jenner?
Kylie Jenner and Tesla guy.
Elon Musk.
By no means does tech football have it have it rolling?
Kind of the opposite of that.
And I'm so glad this coach has clock issues.
He doesn't.
He doesn't see the clock, which is just terrific.
Oh, that's right up your alley.
But when some clubs have it rolling, like they'll fly,
like Carolina schools fly to Virginia.
Well, yeah, that feels different.
Chapel Hill is probably how far from Virginia.
Well, I know it by drive, three hours, 15 minutes.
How far you think Blacksburg is from O'DU?
Just looked it up.
The quickest route, four hours, 45 minutes.
Oh, they are flying, dude.
Worst plane ride.
There we go.
I was going to give it to Utah.
I was going to give it to Utah because, per Dan Orlovsky,
Utah was stuck in the airport four hours.
And after the first game of the season,
you are the sorrest you'll be all year in a lot of ways
because you're so fucking hot out there
and you're so dehydrated.
Utah had like
such a physical game.
National championship aspirations.
Yeah, so everybody's playing super hard.
Those guys are playing hard.
Then they got to sit around for four hours.
But tech,
who's in a 10-year deal with ODAU
and when did that start?
18.
18.
So we're just a couple years in.
They've already lost them twice.
Yeah.
Now if you're a tech hard,
oh, you're saying,
best team of Virginia.
Well, and ODAU's gotten them twice.
We haven't gotten them twice.
20 years. Yeah. Well, who cares? We're talking about O'DU right now, dude. Who cares? Yeah, farm your own
land. One you might understand, farm your own land. So I'll give them worst plane ride. I'll give them
worst elevator ride because the coaches got stuck in the elevator at the half. That was beautiful,
dude. College football was all the way back when that happened, like all the way back. The
Chiron was money. The Chiron was great. Game came delayed due to coaches being stuck in the elevator.
Never seen that before. Have you ever been stuck in an elevator? Yes. How long?
Oh, an hour.
Wow.
I was a kid.
Yeah.
Yeah.
In Hawaii.
With my mom.
Wow.
Yeah.
We were stuck in an elevator for an hour.
So not a fun experience, but at least when I got off the elevator, I knew I wasn't going to lose a O to you.
I was just going to eat a juice box if you drink those.
And Beville Conway, we got to give that one out.
I said it before I'll say it again.
I love what West Virginia is doing with that uniform.
Yeah.
I thought they looked the best from the from the week that was.
I just I mean,
it maybe was too much blue and yellow.
I have a feeling that might be your take.
But I thought Pitt West Virginia was was easy on the eyes.
I'm not sure exactly what Pitt's doing with those numbers.
The tops of the numbers are all pointy.
They probably look like it probably looks like something building on their campus.
It's like an architectural nod.
Exactly.
Got to be careful with those.
So Pitt was yellow blue yellow.
Yeah.
And West Vaugh was.
was all white, but I didn't really like West Virginia's uniforms that much. I mean, I think it's a
cool concept and everything built on a lie. Right. Country roads edition. But, but, but I think they
got better uniforms. So I just didn't know where, where you go this weekend. Like for a second there,
I was like maybe Utah. I think Utah, Florida might have been it for me. Really? Yeah, because I really
like Utah's uni's, man. I don't know about that, uh, that red and orange clash. It's,
for me, it was like, it's not even about the combinations about it was the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the,
is beautiful.
It's gorgeous on TV.
The playing field, the natural grass.
Everybody was playing on these kickoff classics,
disgusting, artificial fake grass.
And then I get to watch like a night game in the SEC.
There's a few stadiums that I love to see glow at night.
The swamp, Neeland.
The big house is weirdly lit at night.
And they don't have grass these days.
Yeah, so it kind of lost some of its luster.
Obviously, you know, Rose Bowl's great.
at dusk, but like a night game down there
in the SEC,
you can really feel the humidity
through the TV screen.
Yes, you can. You can see it on your guy
Kyle Whittingham's shirt.
Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Ole Miss can't really go wrong.
I can't go wrong. I mean, they went wrong with white
and navy white and so look great. Yeah.
I wish I had an outside the box
pick for you. Georgia, red and green
always looks cool. Imagine we
actually got to see that between the hedges.
That would look kind of dope.
Yeah.
But yeah, no, fuck, I'm not going to, I don't know what the legal term would be when the judge is like, I'm not going to object.
I'm also not going to give the Beville Conway Award to Pitt in West Virginia.
I just don't have one.
That's fine.
I'm abstaining.
That's right.
That's what I'm doing.
I'm abstaining.
Okay.
FSU, LSU, great, but again.
Endores.
I want to do a viewing party and you try to guess who it's going to be.
Brian Kelly related.
No, but go ahead, though.
Well, just anything having to do?
I didn't ask Ryan the question.
Okay, stop taking yourself so seriously, not a knock.
Admit that that's hilarious.
Yeah.
Ryan Kelly, who seems to be an aggravated,
mean sort of short-tempered, short-fused, short man.
He would fuck you up.
Like Mark Zuckerberg.
Who would fuck me up.
Like, that's just hilarious.
All of that was hilarious.
And I was on LSU.
All of it was.
was just him not coaching well.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, just all the bad decisions, all the questionable.
And everybody's talked about it not being a cultural fit.
Like he really seemed not comfortable.
Like he wasn't himself on the sideline.
Yeah, dude.
I don't know how that's gonna work out.
Mine was gonna be
everybody that got to see the 15 year old beat up
the Clemson frat guy up close.
That to me was,
I don't like usually seeing stadium fights
because it's like, man, we should be better than this as human beings,
even though we're not.
But like the kid had the low ground.
Y'all pointed that out.
He, I mean, he was beating up a college student and put that guy to sleep for a second.
A 15 year old with the big W.
So L for the Clemson frat guy.
Don't fight at stadiums.
15.
That's what they say.
Oh, well, 22 year old here is very drunk.
Yeah, but he's wobbly.
But that's the opportunity of a lifetime to be a 15-year-old kid.
Nobody's going to blame me for beating up the 22-year-old.
The 22-year-old's harassing you.
People are like, stop, he's just the kid.
That's what my hair looked like at 15.
You can tell the kids me wearing a hat all day.
Yeah.
Got the swoop.
God, my haircut was bad at 15.
You remember?
It's like a bowl, a little bit.
Yeah, a little bit.
Yeah.
Then you went with the A shirt.
Yeah, I had the A shirt.
Rivals.com.
Rivals.com.
Y'all take care.
Y'all take care.
Fod's over.
Take care.
