Another edition of the CCK Podcast brought to you by Postmates.
The summer is here, which means you're going to wake up, roll out of bed, the sun's going to be shining,
you're going to want, you know what, you're going to have a craving for a beer.
You know what you can do? You can get that delivered.
What about Double Stuff Oreos? Can they get that too?
Absolutely.
Okay.
25,000 merchants under the Postmates umbrella.
You think you can't find some fucking Oreos?
Well, here's the thing is everyone is always super concerned about how many double-stuffed Oreos that I eat.
But it's because—
You're good for a sleeve in a sitting.
Sleeve in a sitting.
But it's like, all right, I walk back and forth to wherever, like CVS, to go get them.
So I'm burning off all those Oreos
because I'm so frequently going to get more.
Barely, it doesn't even count. So listen,
that's the thing. You might eliminate
burning those calories, bro. You're going to have to hit the gym.
That's fine. Because Postmates is so
convenient, they're going to deliver it right to
you without you even having to get off the couch. Perfect.
You'll have to go to the door. You'll have to walk
to the door. That's fine. They can probably
just deliver me like a fat burner.
Oh, yeah.
That's right.
I mean, anything.
If you can think of it, they've probably got it under their label.
Yeah, because it's not like competitive brands that only bring you food.
They'll bring you whatever.
I mean, you can do groceries.
You can do food delivery.
You can do alcohol.
You can do stuff from the pharmacy.
What's their policy on tobacco?
Will they bring me cigarettes, like rally cigarettes?
I mean, if they bring you booze, they'll probably bring you cigs.
Okay.
Because the Red Sox stink all out right now.
I don't even care about the Red Sox.
All I care about is the Phoenix Suns.
Me too, baby.
I bet you they're delivering in Phoenix, too.
All you Suns fans, get your Postmates on.
Download the Postmates app.
Start yourself a new account.
Use the promo code KFC at checkout,

It's like a support group.
They really are just a support group for your life.
They deliver your food, and it'll all be for free
when you use that promo code KFC, baby.
I am alongside the Rocket.
It's interesting because we're about to talk baseball,
even though I'm with a basketball blogger.
It is weird, but I'll try to adjust.
Yeah, I feel like you might be able to handle it.
Well, you know, it's something that I cared about when I was a kid,
but then when you sort of grow up and you find out what your passion is,
and mine's shooty hoops.
Shooty hoops.
It's the summertime.
It's time for pretty girls and beer and all the things you hear about in a country song.
Yeah.
And baseball.
Baseball is Americana.
And I'll be able to guide you through this if the Red Sox continue to lose.
I'll let you know how.
Maybe you can tune into my podcast and I'll let you know how to lose because I'm very well versed in it.
And we went to the Mets-Nats game the other day
for
Barcelona Ballpark, and the Rocket was there.
The Rocket really is the gold standard of
baseball podcasts. Section 10
is
probably, I can't even think of anything else
that would compete with it as far as a
singular baseball podcast the way his is.
Cult fandom.
I mean, it really fandom. It really is.
When I saw
your
live show intro
during the, I guess it was
leading up to the playoffs or during the playoffs.
It was before the first game
against the Yankees in the division series.
That was the moment I was like,
I'm going to do a radio show with this guy. Seriously, it really was. I was the moment I was like, I'm going to do a radio show.
Seriously.
It really was.
I was like,
this is like the rocket has that it factor and his fans are within the cult of barstool.
There's an extra,
it's almost like you can dent it down.
Like you boil up barstool and you know,
when they,
you know,
when they do those experiments,
they put like a two liter bottle of soda in a pot and then they boil it
down.
There's that like grossness left.
You take the barstool cult and you boil it down and whatever gunk is left is
section 10 weirdos.
They are,
uh,
they're,
they're quite,
that's why I said we talked about this on radio this week about how,
uh,
I was blown away going to,
cause I usually do the gate D thing.
Check out Vib's video that he did.
He did like the barstool sports science on the Rocket and on my high school no-hitter.
He talked about going
to Gate D. I usually do that
Friday night games at Fenway.
I'll go to Gate D and I'll meet people that want to say hi.
Usually it's 15 to 20, 25
people. The first Fenway Friday
of the year was well over 100 people.
You popped, bro. Fucking bonkers.
You done popped.
And then even the switch over to the
phoenix suns suns out guns out podcast yeah so go is one of the funniest fucking bits that we've
ever done at barstool that you've ever done and but like we couldn't do that i think if kfc radio
came up with like a silly gimmick like that people would be like they'd laugh for like a second they'd be like but like get back get back to the show you know get back to the cum right but like the
the section 10 and it's it's because boston it's just like those guys have probably been around
since it was a newspaper it's the socks you're a hometown guy it's the perfect storm and the way
that they're just down to ride to the point that they're buying T-shirts.
I mean, like hundreds of Suns Out and Gods Out T-shirt.
We've done that one episode.
Like if I listen to a Mets podcast, if all of a sudden tomorrow, like Boomer and Gio in the morning, instead of doing their regular shit on WFAN, where they were doing some like full blown joke for the entire time, I would laugh.
And then I'd be like, all right, come on.
I get like I want I listen to you for a reason those guys are so down to ride and it's also a testament to how we're able to just do like anything and make it funny that but the fact that they're just
like yeah no we're gonna listen to a sunspot you know what i think it is i think it's people's
rejection to how negative and toxic the media is in boston okay so that like rather than just
having someone else pile on yeah it's like uh we this is our way of being like, you know what?
We know the Red Sox suck right now,
but we'd rather talk about the Suns than how bad the Red Sox suck right now.
All right.
That's interesting because the new podcast I've started, again,
from your motivation after seeing Mets fans at Citi Field a couple weeks ago
and knowing your knowledge of baseball fan bases,
you were like, you and Clem should do this.
And I mean, I've literally since day one have thought about doing a Mets podcast,
but it's such a narrow field and a niche, and I got a lot else going on,
and it's like, is it really worth it?
Yeah.
And so this team being young and good, so far at least,
and then you're at your beh know, behest or whatever.
Because it's a new era. That's why I felt like
it was a new chapter in Mets history
where, you know, they're not the
laughing stock of the league anymore.
What was the trainer's name? Ray Ramirez.
Yeah, Ray Ramirez. Like, he's gone and
you know, you got a new manager, albeit, like, yeah.
Like, it's a
it feels like a different chapter in Mets history
and you've got some exciting players in there and they didn't sell off. And that's why, you know, when we were different chapter in Mets history, and you've got some exciting players in there,
and they didn't sell off.
And that's why when we were talking about the Mets
before the Edwin Diaz-Robinson Cano trade,
we were talking about should they trade to Grom?
Should they trade to Cedric?
We said trade them all.
Do it. Blow it up.
Blow it up and start over.
But if they're actually going to supplement the roster
and make some moves here, I was like, yeah, go for it.
Right. makes sense.
But negativity is a part of the Mets fan heart.
And the young kids, the new fans,
or the just kind of blissfully ignorant fans
are like, they just hope Springs Eternal every year.
And they root and they root and they root.
And that's it.
And when they lose, they're just sad,
but they don't blame anybody.
They don't ask for more.
They just let the Wilpons get away with murder.
But I think there's also a huge part of the fan base
that is fed up, that is willing to speak out.
Like, I mean, I always say that I'm married to the Mets,
meaning that like when you're married,
you go through fights and you, you know,
not everything's going to be perfect all the time,
but you're still there
in the long run. That's how I feel
with the Mets, so I'm
going to voice my negative opinions.
I'm going to be down on the
Wilpons, and when
classic Mets things seem to strike,
I'm going to be like, fuck this.
And that's what makes me nervous about doing the podcast,
because you guys, not that you're not legitimate with your critiques.
You still keep it real.
But there's not inherent negativity surrounding the Red Sox anymore like there used to be.
We've learned from that, though.
I feel like when...
It's almost like a cleansing has been happening over the last couple of years.
Because when I first came to Barstool in 2014, it was at the end.
I came in November 2014, so it was literally the month after the Red Sox had finished the last play season.
And then my first full season covering the Red Sox for Barstool, they were in last place.
And I was like, all right, I'm just going to go for it.
And I started going for the throat on a lot of the different players
that sucked and they deserved, like Pablo Sandoval.
I killed him, murdered him.
But the thing that I sort of learned was you've got to be careful,
A, who you go after because that person might be popular with other guys.
So it's like, yeah, Pablo was a funny punching bag
and I got a lot of good content out of shitting on him relentlessly.
But it's like, how many of the guys like him? And that content out of shitting on him relentlessly. But it's
like how many of the guys like him? And that's a bad example. Cause everyone fucking hated him.
But like a guy like Clay Buckholz, like I shit on Clay Buckholz, but it's like everyone in the
clubhouse loved him. So now like, if I want to get, uh, you know, if someone, if someone was
just shitting on you and the national media, and then they're like, Hey, Kouravas love you. I would
love to have you on my show. I'd be like, be like fuck you dude and it's the same thing with these players where
a lot of guys that were like i really like clay were also like fuck jared when i was still praising
them but it's like yeah but like clay is my boy yeah yeah that's why i'm nervous about cindergard
because like the other day he had this was like two at this point maybe as you're listening maybe
three starts ago it's like his second start of the year, maybe.
He was just like completely pedestrian.
And he was just kind of like trying to overpower people when he, you know, it's like you should be beyond that.
And just things weren't going.
He was giving back runs as soon as we would take a lead, whatever it was.
And I had a million tweets ready and I just kept deleting all of them.
Primarily because of kind of what you're talking about.
More so because I was like, you know what?
People I am always hating, even though I feel like I'm right.
I'm like, this is correct, but I don't want to be too negative, whatever.
And then people started to tweet me.
Like, what do you think about Cinderguard Star?
What do you think about what's going on here?
And I tweeted and I said, I don't want to be too negative,
but if you're going to talk all this much, you've got to deliver. And the amount of
people writing back to me being like,
yes, exactly.
There is that.
There's a need for it.
That's what I hope is what's going to happen.
We've got to believe. I am
pretty cynical.
I'm a veteran of being a fan of this team.
I've seen... Glass half empty.
Big time glass half empty. With good reason. And then you've got crazy ass this team. I've seen glass half empty, big time glass half empty with,
with good reason.
And then you got,
I got crazy ass Clem.
I don't know why he's fucking,
fucking optimistic.
He's not like,
he's still realistic though.
He gets it,
but he's also just down to give them more of a shot than I am.
So I think that it's a good,
even balance that,
you know,
when they do LOL Mets type shit,
I'll be there to call them out when they're riding high.
Clem will be out there to fucking tell me I should have believed.
And it should be a solid balance.
So that'll be dropping two days from now.
Are you doing one a week or two a week?
Starting with one.
We'll see how it goes.
I mean, since I announced that we were doing it, they got thumped by the Phillies.
And then they haven't won a game since at the time of recording this.
So maybe it'll be much more me talking on the podcast than Clem to start.
But if they go on a rally, they go on a run,
they make a move at the deadline,
you have a cesspit-ist type of August like we did in 2015.
I'll do this shit five days a week, bro.
I can talk about this team.
It would be a dream come true to be able to talk about this team
on a regular basis. But I feel like the Mets are sort of opening week, bro. I can talk about this team. It would be a dream come true to be able to talk about this team on a regular basis.
But I feel like the Mets
are sort of opening up, too.
When I was talking to some of the people over there,
they're like, yeah,
if you guys want to talk to Alonzo.
And I was like, dude,
we tried to get Frazier down in spring training.
We'd love to get Frazier.
He'd be great.
But that's sort of the thing
that is hard to explain to people
that come at me to be like,
you're not critical.
You're a homer.
You're a kiss-ass. It be like, you're not critical. Like you're a Homer, like you're a kiss
ass. It's like, dude, we're entertainment. If you want objective, hard hitting journalism,
there's plenty of other places to go find that, but we're not trying to burn any bridges so that,
you know, the Red Sox suck for the first three weeks to start the season. And we hammer them
in April. Guys are going to tell us to fuck off in July when they turn the corner and they're in
first place. And it's like, well, that's where I'm going to guess and stuff. That's, that's going to
be my problem is that it is entertainment. And I think part of the Mets fan base, their entertainment
is, is calling them out and telling it like it is. And so I don't want to be phony about it,
but I would like to make sure we don't close any doors or bridges. Definitely be careful. Cause for,
you know,
the example that I just said,
you don't want to crush them in April and then not get the access in July.
Cause that's,
that's going to be the good side.
Like if the Mets end up like going on a fucking rampage for 20 games,
they're in first place,
you're going to want that access.
But there's a clear difference when you interview a guy and he knows in the
back of his mind,
like,
I remember what you fucking said about me.
The way that they answer is robotic.
And it's like, I'm talking to you like I'm in front of my locker
versus just shooting the shit with someone that's having fun.
And now we do the vlog stuff too.
So I'm going to batting practice to do these vlogs
and guys are coming up to me and they're giving me funny shit
that was happening all year last year,
but you never would have seen because we didn't have the vlog.
It's not going to be on a podcast because it's not an interview.
So you're not going to get that if you're a guy that they don't want to come up to.
I mean, there's so much the vibe that you get from the vlog.
Like you're down in the cage, you're on the field, you're in the dugout, you're in their
element watching what they do.
And it doesn't become an interview.
It becomes that you get like to be a fly on the wall of what's what major league baseball is like because baseball to me is so much about
like when you're a baseball player it's it's more of like the lifestyle and like the family
type of orientation that goes around with it that's what you really want to connect because
the interviews you are no matter what you're going to get some of the cliche responses
let's catch them in their own element when they're like spitting seeds and fucking hitting ropes on during batting practice
yeah see what these guys are really like right like i i the news broke that uh the the jerseys
in cleveland for the all-star game this year are going to be sleeveless and that popped up on my
phone and brock holt was taking batting practice and after he was done with his round i was like
brock come over here check this out and we talked he's like dude i gotta make the all-star it's like
you got to see his reaction to be like i want yeah i want here. Check this out. And we talked. He's like, dude, I got to make the All-Star. It's like, hey, you got to see his reaction.
Yeah, I want to fucking Suns out guns out in Cleveland for the All-Star game.
Number one subscriber there at the podcast.
He loves it.
He loves it.
Yeah, I mean, it would be it's we'll see how we'll see how it all unfolds.
I'll tell you this much right now.
Jason Vargas is not getting a pass, bro.
I feel like he probably shouldn't at this point.
You could tell me that Pete Alonzo lives with Jason Vargas is not getting a pass, bro. I feel like he probably shouldn't at this point. You could tell me that Pete Alonso lives with Jason Vargas.
You could tell me that they're dating.
They're married.
And Pete's never going to talk to me again if I talk badly about Jason Vargas, his husband.
And I will fucking crush that guy.
Because if he's not off the team by the time we air our, let's say, fourth episode, if we've got to believe,
I'm going to cancel the whole fucking thing.
Cancel the podcast, bro.
But some of these guys, it all depends on what their sense of humor is.
Like, you could make Vargas your punching bag, and then he might be a stoolie, and he'll
be like, alright, I'll come on.
Yeah, I don't think Jason Vargas is the guy.
Not him specifically, but there are guys like that who would be like, all right, you hate me.
Right.
Like Christian Yelich.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But you know what the difference is?
Christian Yelich is awesome.
Yeah, yeah.
He knew that he always had the trump card over me.
Jason Vargas would be like, well, you're right, dude.
Just think of this.
Yeah.
We got a lot more for the rest of CCK.
But before that, I went out with a girl the other night.
She told me, I'm not a girl that you're just going to hook up with,
but I am not looking to be in a relationship.
She said that?
That's awesome.
Where does that leave you?
The perfect scenario.
I don't get it.
I mean, a girl that says, I'm not going to hook up with you tonight.
No, no, no, no, no.
She was like, I'm not going to be like you're just like you're steady.
Like, you know, you're going to fool around me and hook up with,
but I'm not going to be in a relationship with you.
It wasn't like a tonight.
What the fuck are we doing?
You want a free meal?
What the fuck is this? I was like, what are we?
Fucking kids eat free at the 99?
You're leaving me no wiggle room here.
I don't buy it.
I mean, you got to throw the challenge flag on that.
Yeah.
I'd be like, what are we doing here?
I kind of just let it slide.
I was just like, that makes no sense.
You know, it's kind of like you're just there's just no in between i
like that's why like sometimes i'll be like maybe i do have a little bit of ass burgers to where i
just like can't stop myself from asking like blunt questions like and if that if that were me sitting
there and she's like well like i'm not gonna be the girl that you like hook up with all the time
and i'm not really looking for a relationship i'd be like all right well what the fuck are we doing
patty cake i was very close i just just kind of laughed and we got to whatever.
I would just change the subject.
But I was like...
I mean, I guess that actually leaves some sort of...
I actually think in a way that maybe leaves the best case scenario
where what I would really enjoy would be like
it's like a relationship type of vibe when you are together but the expectations
aren't there when you're not together you know it's like all right i'm not you're not you're not
i'm not the girl that you just call up like when you're like stumbling around drunk and you want
to fuck yeah yeah yeah but i'm also not like you know we're gonna be talking all the time and we're
like we have expectations of each other right if it's like hey when we're together you know we're
like sitting on the couch and we're're hanging out and it's not just
Drunken Smash or something like that. I love shit like that.
Yeah, that's what I mean. So wait, I'm like, are you...
I'm going to call this... This is the head
scratch zone. Are you going to scratch my head
on the couch? But then I don't
have to... Then we're not going to
fight if I don't call
you enough or where were you
sort of thing. Maybe this is
actually the best case of all.
It's great.
I had one of those as if you can get them at Home Depot.
I had one of those like a few years ago where like it was just whenever you want to hit
her up.
It wasn't like a friends with benefits type thing.
You go over, hang out.
It was like it was like a rented girlfriend.
Like you'll be my girlfriend.
It's not like a booty call.
Yeah.
No.
I actually like you enough to like tolerate. Yeah. We'll be my girlfriend. It's not like a booty call. Yeah, no. Because I actually like you enough to tolerate you during sex.
It's not friends with benefits because we're not, like, we haven't been friends leading
up to it.
Right.
It's just when we are together, it feels like we're in a relationship.
It's cutesy.
It's fun.
It's safe.
It's easy.
It'll cook for me.
Right.
We'll watch a movie.
We'll have actual conversations.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's not just like, hey, come over.
Like, fuck you.
And then I'm like, all right, see you tomorrow, babe.
A cuddle afterwards instead of just jetting out of there.
Yeah.
But the next morning, it's not just like, why haven't you texted me?
Right.
Or the next night when I'm out with someone else or with the guys.
It's like, where do you want to go?
Where are you?
Yeah.
I mean, that actually might be the best of all, huh?
It's the best.
I mean, those type of situations never last very long.
Yeah, that's a unicorn type shit.
It's almost like the girl is like, all right, I don't know what this is, so I can't act crazy yet.
But then over time you get the, well, what are we? But I'll tell you what, she was so adamant
about it, not developing into anything more. Maybe I would end up being the one being like,
what are we doing here? Yeah. Yeah. Well, so I lucked out because the girl that I was talking
about, she was like, I've never had a boyfriend before. I was like, oh great, you're a sociopath.
This is perfect. You just can't
feel things. This is right
up my alley. You're about to have a husband, girl.
You're perfect. It was
excellent.
I just totally looked out in that regard.
I think it's funny when you
put weird type of
it's not this, but it's not that.
It's going to be what it's going to be.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
You can't force it or fake it one way or another.
Right.
It would literally just be like once every couple of weeks, be like, hey, you want to
hang out on Thursday?
Yeah, sure.
Yeah, come by.
You just go over and hang out.
Maybe I stumbled upon a unicorn.

He's deciding where to go to college, and he's going to let us decide for him.
Okay.
So college admission board, CCK style here.
Walt, what's good, buddy?
Give me the selections.
What's going on?
All right, so here are the three options right now.
So I'm from New York City.
I got into NYU.
The next option is SMU in Dallas.
And then the third is Pepperdine out in Malibu, California.
So what it's doing.
I mean, just call up to Flex on everybody.
Walter, I mean, what is the point of this phone call?
I mean, I want to come back to New York.
SMU is strong.
Is it?
Oh, SMU is.
Stronger than Malibu?
I mean, well, Pepperdine is like the most beautiful, like,
I think the university accepted the most beautiful campus in the world.
I think it's actually a very good school.
So no NYU.
No.
You shouldn't even apply.
What a waste of the $60.
NYU, great school.
If that's the only place you got into or that's where you want to go, yeah, rock and roll.
I'll probably come back to New York after school.
I'll come back to New York. I'll come back to New York after school. That's actually you want to go. Yeah, rock and roll. But when you're comparing it to Pepperdine, Malibu.
I'll come back to New York after school.
Yeah, that's actually a great point.
You can experience New York, and actually you'll experience it better when you're like 22 to 26, more so than 18 to 22.
When you've got some money in your pocket, you move back home.
You're working a job here.
Doing it when you're 18 years old and like you
know it's still you know you got to get a fake id you're not making a lot of money a lot of the bars
or go to somewhere where you can do like some college you know myu is not really like college
you're just doing what new york city do so you can always go do that right i'm leaning smu honestly
really i don't think i know enough what's like the family income lap where how much money you
get to have because they call SMU 7 Millionaire University.
You don't want to be the poor kid there.
They're the same.
I'm set.
I'm alright.
I knew that.
I didn't want to be a jerk about it.
I didn't want to be a jerk about it, but we're fine.
We're good.
I couldn't guess that by the three schools you listed.
But Walt's doing all right.
Walt got that good trip.
You were set for college, too.
Don't give me the boarding school money.
I didn't say.
Yeah, no.
Maybe Florida State.
It was King of Florida State.
All right.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
All right.
SMU is Southern Methodist University of Texas.
You're telling me Southern Methodist is like popping?
I know from Boyd's who I knew a bunch of rich Latin American girls and stuff like that.
They all went to SMU.
They were like, it's banging down here.
Interesting.
Because I mean, I'm just.
One more factor.
I heard Feidelberg talking about the fraternity thing.
SMU is like a must fraternity place.
Yeah, true.
Pepperdine, more low-key, on the beach, kind of relaxed.
So that's kind of the vibe.
That's a good point, kid.
I feel like SMU, because they're all rich, I feel like their fraternities, too, they
take very seriously. That's what I was going to say, yeah. Where it's like they're going to... No, I know they do fraternities, too, they take very seriously.
That's what I was going to say, yeah.
Where it's like they're going to hate you.
No, I know they do.
In the South and rich.
They definitely do.
Okay, so I'm back on Pepperdine.
All right, back on Pepperdine.
I'm back on Pepperdine, Kevin.
I mean, I know a kid who went to Pepperdine.
Pepperdine has just as much, if not more money than SMU.
So that's not really like, I mean, these are two very much on the same plane.
But guess what? So does NYU.
People aren't talking about it.
I know who wants Pepperdine.
I like to have, like, KFC when he talks about Fordham
said he should have gone, like, out of New York City
for a little bit. I kind of agree there.
I think I should get out for a little bit.
Yeah. What do you want to do, by the way?
Well, that doesn't matter.
If he says he wants to do film, I'm going to say NYU.
No, not film.
Business. I'll just study NYU. No, not film. Business.
I'll just study business.
Okay.
Then Pepperdine.
Yeah.
Didn't Danielle go to Pepperdine?
Did she?
Danielle did go to Pepperdine.
Oh, that makes sense.
Yeah.
That makes sense.
How are you picking on Wildfires?
Because that's really the only negative to Pepperdine.
They're like right on the fucking cliffs by the water.
It's like, oh, we used to get to my friend.
It's a joke. It's like, oh, we used to get to my friend. It's a joke.
It's crazy.
You're like five minutes from Calabasas, 30 from L.A.
I think it'd be kind of dope.
Well, I think you're leaning with us.
I think we're all on the same page here.
Can we get a vote now?
Let's put our stamp on Pepperdine.
Are we all voting Pepperdine?
Also, for some reason, I want to say, do you like Jewish people, Walter?
Do you like the Jews?
Are you a Jew?
No, I'm not Jewish, but I'm from New York City, so, I mean, not an issue.
Okay, you're used to it.
Because I want to say that there's a lot of Jews in Pepperdine.
There's something about Jews in Pepperdine. Are two questions for Walter. I'm trying to decide where he wants to go. Well, actually you're used to it. Because I want to say that there's a lot of Jews in Pepperdine. There's something about Jews in Pepperdine.
There are two questions for Walt trying to decide where he wants to go.
Well, actually, shout out to me.
I did ask what he wants to major in.
But the other two were how rich are you and what's your stance on Jews.
We've got a poll up on Barstool Radio.
This is why Walter called us.
We've got the poll up on Barstool Radio so the people can decide.
All right, so we also put it out to the listeners, Walt.
We put out your choices, so we'll see what the fans say.
All right.
All right, let's do our vote here, though.
I mean, all in favor of Pepperdine, say aye.

I got to call back and let you know how it is in the fall.
Oh, okay.
I thought you meant Keyless updated on the decision.
Yes.
No, no, no.
It's a dumb deal.
I'm going to go sit in.
We get to have the weekly call.
I feel like we just sponsored a child.
Yeah.
I get to mail us letters and shit.
You got to have Monday calls from Walt.
What did you do this weekend at Pepperdine?
Yeah.
You know what?
Actually, Walt, okay, here's what I'm going to do.
I'm going to very directly live vicariously through you.
I'm going to make sure you did everything that I didn't do.
I'm going to make sure you do all the things that I did do that I liked,
and I'm going to stay on your ass for the next four years
and make sure you don't blow any of this.
Do you want me to email you?
You're out of the way.
You just called us.
We're literally contacting right now.
You do this again.
I know.
I'm going to stay in contact with you.
It's going to be, here's what's going to happen.
Like second semester, freshman year, or maybe like first semester,
sophomore year, you're going to call up, Walton.
You're going to be like, Uncle KFC, I really like this girl.
Should I start dating her and be in a relationship with her?
And I'm going to say, no!
You live in Pepperdine, Malibu!
What are you, crazy?
So I'll make sure you stay on the straight and narrow.
And then fights will ask who her family is and how much of Fox Studios do they own.
And then you're going to swing back the other way.
I'm going to be like, no, she's a Jew!
What are you, crazy?
Congratulations on going to Pepperdine.
All right.
Let us know how it goes.
All right, Uncle Patsy.
Thanks, everyone else.
Thanks so much.
Talk soon.
Of course.
Is Brendan Clancy listening?
Because that's how you sponsor a child.
Yeah, that's what's up.
Write a letter to someone.
See Walt for a weekend.
You got to pay his tuition now.
Parents weekend.
Guess who's coming to Pepperdine?
We're going to like van wilder this shit.
We got to pay his tuition now.
You got to pay for Pepperdine.
Relax.
Relax. He's got rich parents. We're good. Yeah. Thater this shit. We've got to pay his tuition now. You've got to pay for Pepperdine. Relax, relax.
He's got rich parents.
We're good.
That was so funny.
What's your financial status?
We're good.
We're doing just fine.
We've got a couple calls here.
Oh, okay, wait a minute.
Now, Walt, I hope you're still listening.
Jake from California, he says he hates Pepperdine.
Wow.
Why?
Tell us why, Jake.
This kid can't go to Pepperdine. First. Why? Tell us why, Jake. This kid can't go to Pepperdine.
First of all, it's a dry campus.
Second of all, which, I mean, you can't do.
Second of all, it's, like, so far from everything.
It's a half hour from L.A.
So living off campus, like, there are no off-campus parties.
There are no sports.
It's terrible.
This kid doesn't go to SMU. He's a fucking idiot. You can't go to SMU.
Oh, alright.
I mean, a dry...
Turns out there are some flaws in knowing nothing about
colleges you're recommending to Radio College.
Yeah, but SMU stinks at sports, so I won't
buy that logic.
No, SMU stinks at sports.
SMU stinks at sports.
They're moderate, right?
They get on ESPN. You gotta be decent They get on ESPN.
You've got to be decent to get on ESPN.
They've been death-penaltyed, and they haven't come back.
Unless you only want to wear throwback.
Unless you want to wear throwback Eric Dickerson jerseys,
SMU for sports, I'm not buying.
I think SMU, since the death penalty,
they've reached the stage where it's like,
we're a decent team, this is a good year.
You don't have aspirations for national championships anymore.
But you're like, all right, we're above 500, solid season, this is fun.
They feel like the Texas version of BC.
I don't think you can compare southern schools at all to northern schools
because no one cares.
Right in your face.
Like BC, just no one goes to BC.
Right, I think if Casey were here, she'd tell you no one in Texas cares about SMU.
I don't care about people in Texas.
I care about SMU.
I mean people at BC don't care about BC.
I think people at SMU like have fun and go to games and have fun.
If you're telling me they're all Southern millionaires, I don't know if they care either.
All I'm saying is I'm not – like if we were talking about like Texas or like an actual sports school, then I would see that argument.
I think both schools neither have a huge sports appeal.
Right.
Right. The dry campus
with the combination
of it's hard to get
off campus and go anywhere is tough.
Because dry campus...
I think every campus is kind of
dry in the sense that you're not
going to allow you to throw fucking ragers
right on their property.
Really?
We want to go back to BC comparisons.
I've been arrested at BC twice for having a total of both arrests 12 times.
I have 12 beers on me.
Yeah, I don't think any school.
What are you in about?
I've been to parties that were on campus, and the school kind of knew about them.
Like a frat house or what?
No.
In dorms?
Not necessarily dorms.
It was buildings on campus.
Interesting.
They knew about the-
Shout out Babson.
You just couldn't walk around with containers outside of the rooms.
That's my favorite school in the-
Babson?
Well, Babson became its own city because the town it was in became a dry town.
Is that Mosley?
And they were like, I think it's technically Needham.
Okay.
And so they were like, fuck that.
We're becoming our own town.
Like they seceded? So yeah, Babson College is in Babson Town, Massachusetts.
Because they wanted the kids to be able to drink.
Shout out Babson.
Shout out Babson.
That's how you keep the Roman up.
Shout out the beefs.
I know Amherst College, which is like oil sheiks and everyone's sent.
Like, not UMass, but Amherst College in town is just all rich fucking kids.
And they throw a Christmas party every year. Where their dorms, like, luxurious dorms I've ever seen in my life.
And they just all open up, and you can just walk around the whole campus.
The cops, like, form a perimeter around the outside.
They're like, you can drink on this side of us.
If you come to this side, you're publicly intoxicated.
Yeah.
But if you're over here, you're fine.
And they just watch you do all sorts of wild shit.
So, yeah, I find it hard to believe that if Walter, who is rich, is trying to drink on Pepperdine's campus,
something bad is going to happen to him.
There's a lot of calls coming in for SMU.
Wow.
Jake from Connecticut.
I always go with the gut.
What do you got on SMU?
There's plenty of gut to go with.
All right.
I'm 18.
I'm in the college search as well.
I was looking at SMU, and when I was looking at all my schools, I just, you know, tailgates are fucking awesome.
Like, it's a big part of the college experience.
And I think it's something everyone should be part of at some point.
Also, you know, personally, I'm not a big Florida guy.
Fucking hot.
You know, in August, it fucking sucks.
And SMU, you know, you got Dallas.
It's a dope place to live.
Did you say Florida? You're not a big Florida guy? Yeah, you know, you got Dallas. It's a dope place to live. Did you say Florida?
You're not a big Florida guy?
I did.
Are we talking about Florida?
Yeah.
You think Pepperdine's in Florida?
I mean, I've been to Florida.
It's dope, but, you know.
No, no, no.
But, Jake, why are we talking about Florida?
Miami.
Pepperdine.
No, Pepperdine's in California.
Nope, nope. Nope, Malibu, bro. Malibu. No, Pepperdine's in California. Nope, nope.
Nope, Malibu, bro.
Malibu.
Oh, fuck.
Damn.
I had a feeling there was a disconnect there.
I do think what you brought up about the frats, though,
like I'm still going to always be out on SMU for that.
Yeah, like if you have to be in a frat and it's –
That's all southern schools, I feel like.
I would guess they're real frats.
That's not all.
I guess state schools you probably don't have to be,
but probably smaller southern schools I would guess you have to be at.
Yeah.
I had friends who went to Vanderbilt, and you've got to be in a frat at Vanderbilt.
That's not even a smaller southern school.
It's a sizable southern school.
Sure is.
Connor, you're going to SMU right now?
Yes, sir.
I go there right now.
Pony up, baby.
So I'm assuming you're heavy.
That's a good catchphrase.
Yeah, that affects things, things too you can walk into
a place and say pony up you can get some good merch yeah so make the pitch
are you uh you're good either way uh there's the fucking boulevards the tailgates for football
games let me tell you they're the greatest thing that I've ever been to in terms of a tailgate for a football game.
Not going to lie.
No one goes to the games because, Cole, you're right, we suck, we blow.
But, I mean, there's nothing you can do about that.
No, there isn't.
But, I mean, so, I mean, yeah, and the basketball team's not great.
Okay, sports, yeah, we're out on that.
But the thing is, you go to SMU to have a great time.
I'm graduating in May. I've had a fantastic time fantastic time let me tell you it's been so much fun uh i was in a frat
yeah i was in a frat um i was in uh sig up and let me tell you i've had like the greatest four
years of my entire life and i know so many people that go here that are from California. They fucking despise Pepperdine.
They say it's a curfew, dry campus, nowhere near L.A.
It sucks.
They hate it.
All right.
Oh, sorry.
Hung up on you there.
We'll get one more call here.
This is another guy from Texas.
I mean, just even the fact of how many pro SMU calls we're getting and not a one from
Pepperdine.
What do you got?
They're fucking on the beach, Kevin. Truedine. What do you got? They're fucking on the beach, Kevin.
True.
True.
What do you got, Henry?
Yeah, I would definitely say SMU.
I mean, I knew a lot of people.
Like, I know people who go there, and there's a lot of hot girls there.
I don't know about Pepperdine.
And the other thing is it's in Dallas, which has great nightlife.
So, like, if there's not, you know, like a fraternity
party or something.
To pile on this, just got a tweet
from Zach. SMU for sure.
Pepperdine alum here.
And Malibu is cool, but whole town
closes down at 10pm and everything's expensive as shit.
Alright, Walter!
We're pulling on an audible!
Have we all changed?
No, I haven't. I think city is an anti? No. I haven't changed my mind. I haven't.
I think city is an anti-point.
I don't like city for college.
What you need is near a city.
Yeah, near a city.
Everyone keeps saying it's a half hour.
In L.A. specifically, that means you're a mile away.
Yeah.
Oh, I think people are going by distance.
Yeah, it's about a half hour.
I think people, if you live there, it's going to be like an hour.
Two hours, yeah.
Maybe.
L.A. is a nightmare. No, I know. That's what I mean. That's why whenever I keep saying a half hour, it's like, all right, well, it's about a half hour. I think people, if you live there, it's going to be like an hour and a half. Two hours, yeah. Maybe. LA's a nightmare.
No, I know. That's what I mean. That's why whenever I keep saying a half hour, it's like, alright, well, that's not far.
You're looking at a map and you're like, that's about a half hour.
I feel like... Well, then that's three days, then.
Right. If they're just eyeballing it.
Yeah, you're going to dive this far. I mean,
I don't think you can go wrong. You're going to be living on, like,
the fucking cliffs overlooking
the Pacific Ocean and, you know, beautiful
Malibu. It's not going to be terrible by any means.
But if you're telling me that there's a curfew and there's a dry campus
that's with also no alternative, you don't live off campus,
then what do you do?
I suddenly feel a lot of responsibility.
So do I.
That's why I'm changing my mind.
Yeah, now I'm like, shit, did he send that kid to a school he was going to hate for four years?
No, he was making the right call.
Well, I mean, I'm sure he's still listening.
I need to hear from some SMU frat people or SMU GDIs, one or the other.
I need to hear how it works.
Captain Kahn's on the line.
He's probably hiding in the bathroom at work, so we'll get to him and he can tell the story.
What up, Kahn?
Hey, I wanted to inform you guys on why SMU was the absolute, by far and away, only choice
for a young Walter.
Okay.
My cousin went there, and when he was in school there,
I was living in Texas, so I would go up to visit him quite often,
and a football Saturday there is unparalleled.
By far, best school I've ever partied at.
They get the boulevard, which is like one of the main strips through campus.
Every tailgate is catered. They have all these wealthy people that have these unbelievable tailgates.
Booze is flowing the whole day.
All of the girls are dressed to the nines in, like, sundresses.
The weather is always warm there, so the girls are always looking very nice.
And then the bar scene, too, is a very good time with a lot of bars, cheap drinks,
but also, you know, the frat parties are a good time, too, if you want to join a frat.
So SMU, by far and away.
And it has nothing to do, Coley, it has nothing to do with being near Dallas
because it's in kind of like a suburb-y area of Dallas that's a lot more low-key.
So I guess maybe when you get to be 21, if you want to go to the bars in Dallas
or whatever, Dallas is a great city, but you're not beholden to Dallas to have a good time.
I was just responding to what the other caller said that was trying to push the city on us.
I'm so mad I didn't stick with my guns.
I mean, I am a sheep, so it makes sense.
But I wish I stayed by myself and said SMU.
Let's call Walter back.
We were.
I know.
Yeah, but I'm still on Pepperdine.
Oh, shit.
I'm on SMU.
Let's call Walt back. Do we have his number? Yeah, we I'm still on Pepperdine. Oh, shit. I'm on it. Let's call Walt back.
Do we have his number?
Yeah, we got it.
Let's call Walter.
It'll be fine.
Hopefully he didn't call us from the post office.
He's at the admissions office.
Pepperdine, I go.
Or he went to Pepperdine.
I was like, you can go.
Or he asked me, you can go.
Fuck yourself.
I'm out of here.
I'm Walt.
We're going to call Walt back.
That'll be funny.
The phone ringing.
Walt's already here.
Beautiful.
Yeah, I'm here.
Are you guys in?
Walt.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wait, I have two things for Con.
I have two things for Con.
Okay.
So I know a bunch of people that go to SMU, and they got rid of the boulevard this year.
There's no more boulevard.
Oh.
So you have your own intel then. So it sounds to me like you already had some intel on SMU, and they got rid of the boulevard this year. There's no more boulevard. Oh! So you have your own
intel then. So it sounds to me
like you already had some intel on SMU, and you
probably were leaning to Pepperdine to begin with.
Yeah, I know people that go there.
Stay strong, Walt.
Alright, well that's
a...
Go. What were you guys going to say?
No, you finish.
You finish.
The fraternity thing is very like what I talked about the other day.
My daddy was in this and my granddaddy was in that.
It's very much that vibe.
So if that has anything to do with it, that's what I've heard about.
So now it sounds to me like you're arguing for Pepperdine.
It sounds like you're going against SMU here.
Well, I kind of just did my commitment for Pepperdine on my radio.
I mean, you did, but we kind of did it under a little bit of false pretenses.
Like, I didn't know that it was a dry campus.
All we knew about it was you were rich.
Off-campus life, I didn't know that the town shuts down at 10 p.m. If you're right, going to college, just
travel. Be rich.
Does that worry you?
No, the people
I know at Pepperdine
said it's
just more low-key. You just go out in the Malibu
and it's more laid-back,
more beach-thinking, stuff like that.
I don't
think I like laid-back college.
First of all, by the way, let me say,
the college admission process in my last hour is exhausting.
I am so happy I really didn't put any effort into it
because I don't think I survived it.
I think you just showed up at Florida State one day.
No, I showed up at St. Michael's one day.
I got there and decided, you know what, we're going to Florida State.
But I don't think I want a casual lifestyle in college.
I like a casual lifestyle now.
In college, I think I wanted to be screaming at all times.
I can't even imagine what you were like.
What I know is that you kind of have to join a fraternity to go out and really be a part of it at SMU.
There's not a big GDI type of crowd.
So that's a big factor.
I think you are a laid-back cat.
Let me ask you this, Walt.
Are you ugly?
No.
I wouldn't say I'm great looking, but I'm definitely a normal, I'm fine on that.
Okay, so you think you can hang.
Like, if you told me you were like
short and fat, I don't think, you know,
sunny California on the beaches is
for you. He has money though, Kemp. I know,
I know. But when everyone's got money,
the swim back gets still the swim back.
Exactly. Yeah, yeah. The playing field
is going to be even. And if everybody's out
there in sunny California, nice and
pretty and tan, and you're the ugly guy,
then all of a sudden you're going to feel uncomfortable in your own town.
I also feel like Texas doesn't
really care for New York, whereas California
and New York kind of go hand in hand.
That's true. You're going to be like a fucking Yankee down there.
Nobody likes you.
Yeah, I'm 6'1",
so it's not like...
Okay, alright.
Yo, bro, give me another week of
fucking no carbs and I'll be there give me another week of fucking no carbs.
I'm going to be there with you.
You're going no carbs?
Yeah, bro, no carbs because I got fat, bro.
I was pushing two bills.
I went no carbs on them.
Everything has carbs in it.
I know.
It's not fun.
I know.
It's terrible, man.
You just had bread.
No, I didn't.
I took it out.
Oh, you did take the bread off.
You're an associate, pal.
Do you, are you, like, I do think Pepperdine is going to be more laid back, like they said.
Like, you know, you maybe hit the beach.
Walt, do you like to smoke?
No. I mean, here and there.
Something you'd think about getting into.
Could you dabble in that world?
Yeah. Do you think, like, laying on the beach, smoking is something you'd be interested in?
I don't know. I mean, we've got to get out there first.
Yeah, no, I think Pepperdine has always been the correct choice.
It sounds like you're leaning that way.
I just want to make sure that you're considering all these potential negatives that it sounds like maybe are out there about Pepperdine.
Well, the Greek life thing in the boulevard, like, that's a big aspect of it, you know?
I agree.
And, like, you're kind of making a big decision to lean towards, like, a frat guy type of life.
So, I don't know about you, Walt.
Yeah, you don't sound like a frat guy.
It sounds like you are maybe down with a little bit more of the low-key life.
I just want you to be prepared.
So, I think we're staying firm with our original choice.
I just want you to be prepared for this whole dry campus curfew.
The dry campus is whatever.
A town curfew is weird.
Like if you can't be out of Mars.
I don't think it's a town curfew.
It's like everything closes at 10.
Sounds like Boston.
Two things.
I got two things.
So I have a bunch of friends going to USC next year too.
So I can go to football games and stuff like that on the weekends.
So I can go party down at USC, which I think would be a huge plus.
I agree.
I mean, I think that's a big aspect of it.
See, I'm going to stick with Pepperdine because that's where Walt wants to go.
Yeah.
It's actually what we talk about all the time when we talk about with, like, advice.
Where it's like, why are you calling me for advice?
Because you know what you want to do, so just do it.
Right?
Like, and I think –
Like, I really agree with Feidelberg on the fraternity thing of, like, how he felt about it.
Like, I don't really want to go somewhere where I join a fraternity and go through all this stuff.
And then I'm like, damn, like, this really isn't me, you know?
So that's kind of, like, where I feel.
Yeah, and the worst thing even worse than like going down there and being like this isn't me is going down there and being like you know what i like this yeah right then you turn into that guy
yeah like that's why i think like pepperdine like go out to la malibu a few years like enjoy
go out go down to usc enjoy la like take in a few years. Like, enjoy it. Go out. Go down to USC.
Enjoy L.A. Like, take in the weather.
Come back to New York.
Work.
And let's ride.
Kind of thinking that throughout.
Speaking of fraternities, by the way, KB no-swags Notre Dame of every state.
That's my frat house in Florida.
Sounds about right.
We can't do two calls at once, right, Zaha?
I think you can.
We should be able to.
Yeah, we can. Okay. If I just press play on this, it'll get me? I think you can. We should be able to. Yeah, we can.
Okay, if I just press play on this, it'll get it.
Let Dan handle it.
Who do you want on?
Can you put Mike from Cali on?
This is another guy saying no to Pepperdine.
I just want Walt to hear it straight from the horse's mouth.
So Mike from Cali, he is saying no.
Hey, guys.
Tell Walt he's listening.
He's still on the line, so you can talk right to him.
Tell him what you think.
So I work in Westlake.
That's maybe a 15-minute drive from Pepperdine.
Pepperdine is a beautiful school, a good basketball team,
but you're going to be really bored.
I mean, if you're down here, like you said, it'd be relaxed,
like go to the beaches and stuff, but it's a really nice place,
but you're going to be really bored.
If it was my decision, I would go to states of like the college states
that are known for fraternities if you want to have that experience.
And as far as nightlife around the area, it's not that big.
I'm sure maybe there are college parties.
When you say he's going to be bored, like what does that mean?
Like there are no bars to go to?
There's no, like what?
Because if he's not looking for frat life, so's almost fine there's no frat parties like is there not going
to be any nightlife is he not going to be able to party and hook up and booze anywhere what do
you mean by there's a night there's a nightlife for sure um i mean yeah you can go to la which
is not that far away but the nightlife in that area so so it's in Malibu, so it's in the Westlake area, Newberry Park, Thousand Oaks.
There's bars and stuff, but they're nothing like the college town bars.
You know, those bars get big because that's all there is going on out there,
so people are having fun, partying, drinking.
I mean, I wouldn't want to go to college and have a boring time,
and that's just me, though.
I mean, I lived in San Diego.
If you want to go somewhere and have the California lifestyle, but with the college lifestyle,
go to San Diego.
That place is where it's at.
But the one thing is, like I was saying, like the college, like the bar scene and all that
stuff, like you really have to dive headfirst into like fraternity culture and like you
really got to own being a frat guy is what I've heard and what I've seen from people
when I've gone and stayed down there for a couple weekends.
Okay, well,
if you don't want to dive into the
fraternity life and the party life,
me personally, I'd rather go to
San Diego because you don't have to be in a frat
to be going to some awesome parties.
I mean, everywhere all over San Diego is dope,
but it doesn't sound like those are any of the
schools on the list.
Yeah, it everywhere all over. I mean, San Diego is dope, but it doesn't sound like those are any of the schools on the list. I mean, I don't think.
Well, yeah, you guys like.
Process over, but.
Yeah, it's all over.
Like, it's way too late to apply to school now.
It's all over.
Mike, thank you for the input.
Here's the deal, Walt.
You want to go to.
Uncle KFC, what are we doing?
Yeah, no, it sounds.
I'm happy that we took a couple of calls and fleshed this out and had some discussion
because now we were a little more informed.
You're now very well aware of some of the potential negatives.
But anytime anybody is bringing up SMU or putting down Pepperdine,
you are coming to Pepperdine's defense.
You're going to have friends there at USC.
You want to go to Pepperdine, you're going to Pepperdine, bro.
That's where Walt's going.
Woo!
Let's fucking go.
Also, by the way, on Parents Weekend, we're coming.
Your parents are not invited.
Uncle Casey and the cast are going to come through to Pepperdine.
Do I have, like, dual uncles?
Can I get uncle fights, too?
Yeah, the whole gang's coming.
Don't worry.
All four of us will be there.
The four of us will be there.
I get all the uncles?
Yeah, you get everybody.
That's right.
And, by the way, you get everybody. That's right.
And by the way,
you're paying.
You're rich,
so you're going to pay for us.
And we will all,
I mean, 20 of us,
30 of us can come.
You're paying.
Whatever you want to do,
we will come and hang out in Malibu with you,
and we will make sure
that you made the right
goddamn choice.
Yeah, Uncle Kevin.
That's what's up.
All right, Uncle Kevin.
If there's anybody out here,
if there's anybody out here
who should be giving out
life advice, it's this guy right here. Congratulations Uncle Kevin. If there's anybody out here, if there's anybody out here, should be giving out life advice.
It's this guy right here.
Congratulations, Walt.
You are the newest member.
I'm going to find out what Pepperdine's mascot is.
Anyone know?
I'm going to find out,
and then we'll take guesses.
No, no, don't tell us, Walt.
It's probably a rich fucking hot girl.
No, it's a wave.
Because that's what Pepperdine's all about.
No, don't say anything.
What is it?
It's a wave.
A wave.
It's a wave.
Pretty cool.
Yeah, that's pretty fucking... It's like two lines. It's wavy say anything. What is it? It's a wave. A wave. That's pretty fucking...
That's wavy, bro.
Willie the Wave.
Willie the Wave is going to be...
If we had known that earlier, we wouldn't have even continued.
Sold. Congrats, Walt.
I love to hear it, man.
Stay in touch and make sure that we get to...
Yeah, make sure we get to come out.
Neil from New York is on the line. He's talking songs this summer.
What makes you think of the summertime?
So the one song that really comes to my head is Toby Keith, Made in America.
And it just makes me think of being at my buddy's house,
phone drunk into a pool with American flag bandanas and barbecues and girls and bikinis.
It's great.
I don't care for that song.
I got bottom cover.
Final word said, fuck you, Neil.
I don't care for the country.
The country that's super pandering.
The super, super pandering.
The whole genre is gimmicky.
It's like, I like, it's all pandering.
A lot of it is pandering.
We actually talked to Luke Bryan about this rather extensively,
and he was very cool where he's like,
look, I like drinking beer.
So I sing about drinking beer.
I'm down with that.
But if you go super panicked where you're like, beer, truck, America, girls,
it's like a little over.
Jeans, red meat.
Just do it.
Every song has one.
One song can be about this.
One song can be about that.
It can either be about the truck or the girl.
I want to crack my beer can, sing my dog, and sing the American anthem.
What's the one from Parks and Rec, the parody song they have?
Oh.
It's like, I love you, Mom, parentheses the troops.
Yeah, bring the troops home.
Okay, get home safe, boys.
Well, what's his name?
What's his name of the Bo Bryan parody?
Bo Burnham in Parks and Rec, too.
Right.
I mean, that song's good.
It's a good song.
I know what he's doing, and it makes sense, but it's good.
It's all the same, like, three chords.
It's a guy with a deep voice.
I think everyone in this room could make a popular country song.
But...
Zach, can you pull up the Bo Burnham country song?
From Parks and Rec?
No, no, no.
Bo Burnham has a country song from his special.
It's from his special called Make Happy.
And he says, like, you know, I'm doing, like, the stereotype here.
He's going to pick the girls, the beer, the flag
The fireworks, whatever
But it's good
So then, you know
List the same words and phrases
All sort of Mad Lib style in every song
Raking in millions of dollars
From actual working class people
You know the words, you know the phrases
Phrases like
Dirt road, cold like dirt road, a cold beer, a blue jeans, a red pickup, a rural noun, simple adjective.
I like this song.
No shoes, no shirt, no shoes.
You didn't hear that.
Sort of a mental typo.
I walk and talk like a field hand, but the boots I'm wearing cost three grand.
I write songs about riding tractors from the comfort of a private jet.
But it goes.
You're bouncing, you're singing, you're swaying with the music.
I mean, it's great white people music is what it goes. You're bouncing, you're singing, you're swaying with the music. I mean, it's great white people music is what it is.
It's just.
Cold beer with the logo facing out.
But I like it.
It's a good song, man.
So then what's the problem, you know?
It's big time for the whites.
We know that.
That's actually a great line he ends it with.
He goes, I own a private ranch that I rarely use.
I don't like dirt.
More songs this summer from Sandy out in Oakland.
What you got?
All right, guys.
Two parts to this. So I've heard you say a few songs.
Despacito, yes, was popular for a summer because that was like the top headliner for a summer.
Two songs that uh stand
the test of time john mellencamp's jack and diane and don henley boys of summer if i hear those it's
summertime baby yeah i mean boys of summer obviously got the fucking word in the title
sure does and jack and diane is an all-time classic but it's also that's not getting like the
the party going that's like the whites whites. When my dad had first
had me, he
applied to a
raffle or contest.
A raffle?
To win a contest
to paint your house pink
with John Cougar Mellencamp.
My mom was furious.
I'm on Polly's side on this one.
Usually guy code, but what the fuck are we doing here, Mr. Feidelberg?
It was like John Cougar's Little Pink House as it come out.
And it was just like, I want to paint my house pink with Johnny Cougs.
I mean, God, I wish you won that raffle.
So bad.
That's such a dumb, like, young dad thing.
My dad, he had a Toyota Supra, which is like a two-door coupe, like, sports car.
And then my brother came along, and my mom was like, all right, you know, time to upgrade to a family car.
So my dad went to the dealership to turn it in, and he came back with two Toyota Supras.
He got sold on another one.
She was like, what the fuck are you doing?
Yeah, I get one.
You and the kid in the other one.
Look, your dad had already given up.
You said there wasn't enough seats, so now we got double the seats.
We're good to go.
Your dad had given up the monkey.
He'd given up enough for his children.
That's one of the biggest reasons why I can't wait to move back to Boston
is because I have never owned a car that I selected myself.
What do you mean?
Who usually picked it?
My first car was a hand-me-down from my sister.
Your adopted sister. Parents, yeah. My adopted sister.
My second car was my aunt's, and my third car was my grandmother's when she couldn't drive anymore. She had a car for like four months, brand new.
Yeah, it had like seven miles on it.
Yeah, it had seven miles on it, and she hurt her foot, and I was like, I'll buy it off you, and I did.
What's the rocket going to pick?
It's a great question.
What kind of car does the rocket drive?
I'd probably buy it.
It's got to be something stupid and obnoxious.
Would you live in Saugus or would you live in Boston?
I would build a castle in Saugus Center with a fucking moat that has alligators in it right in Saugus Center.
Like, I might buy Town Hall.
If I move back to Boston, which I don't foresee doing anytime soon,
but if I moved back to Boston, I wouldn't get a car still because I live in Boston.
Yeah, but there's at least parking spots there. I guess. I did a car still because I live in Boston. Yeah, but there's at least parking spots there.
I guess.
I did have a car.
I live in Boston.
Yeah, if you lived in Boston,
they definitely have places
where it's like,
if you get this condo,
it comes with a parking spot.
Right.
And I would imagine that...
You could move next to Calhoun.
I would love to.
I could live in Calhoun.
That's huge.
You could live there.
Yeah.
Inside that pyramid thing,
isn't there?
Yeah, they would probably charge me like 500 bucks a month.
They wouldn't even charge you.
Maybe not, but I would feel obligated to pay.
It's out of the kindness of my heart to support the business.
When are you going to go back to Boston?
Or up there?
I think the plan is...
We're going to see.
Now, Phoenix is calling.
It's true. I'm getting pulled in a bunch of different directions right now, I mean, Phoenix was calling. It's true.
Yeah, I'm getting pulled in a bunch of different directions right now.
We might relocate to Phoenix.
Everybody wants a piece of the rocket.
A Phoenix office?
Yeah, I might open up Barstool Phoenix.
Phoenix.barstoolsports.com.
Yeah.
Let's hit a break.
When we come back, final segment of the day,
final segment of the week before Chicks in the Office take over.
We'll be right back. What's up?
It's your boy Kfc alongside casey smith and i am now joined by two members
of the brand new the latest barstool sports podcast as we continue to take this shit to
the moon as we continue to expand the podcast network and we continue to dominate the sports and recreation category on itunes the latest
podcast suns out guns out yep featuring two of the premier phoenix suns podcasters coley mick
and the rocket jared carapace that's right today uh the merch is already flying it literally is
is there is there a uh is there an episode out or are we waiting for it to drop tonight all right
so the so episode one will be out this week and what are we talking fellas i mean obviously right
at the top of the list you get the draft you got the draft you got zion the draft lottery do you
believe yeah we don't even know where the suns are gonna are they in the top three oh yeah okay
so you got they you you guys have a chance% chance for the top pick.
Jared, is there any doubt that the Phoenix Suns should select Zion Williamson?
I mean, if you end up not selecting Zion, buddy,
we are going to be burning this shit to the ground in Phoenix.
What's the arena?
Where do you play?
In Phoenix.
It's the walking stick arena.
Yeah, we play in Phoenix.
Coley, would you, as a Phoenix Suns fan, would you maybe make an argument for john morant or anybody other than zion now listen i mean
john morant's a nice consolation prize if we don't end up with that top pick i do think him
and devin booker would be a dynamic backcourt however we have big book we we do have d anthony
mountain who can run the point handedly he's not scorer, but this team doesn't need scoring right now, Kevin.
They need someone who can do all the intangibles.
Oh, okay.
So that's why I think you get Zion.
Is Zion and DeAndre Ayton a perfect fit in the modern NBA in which we play?
Maybe not, but I think that's a problem for other teams
who are trying to adapt to us.
Oh, absolutely.
I mean, at some point, you know, yeah, you would love everything to work out
matchups-wise and size-wise and position-wise.
But at some point, you just put talent together.
You let them figure it out.
You let Book, Morant, Endor Williamson,
maybe a little DeAndre Ayton in the mix like that.
That's just, that's a big three.
Now you're talking about a squad.
You got a big three.
I want to hear Jared just, what you guys were just saying,
like, is Jared going to talk about this on the podcast?
Yes.
I mean, Casey, it's a Phoenix Sun podcast.
He's going to rattle through the facts.
Coley's not going to rattle through the facts.
And then Jared's going to co-sign.
Casey, you don't know two bigger Phoenicians in your life than me and Carabas.
Phoenicians.
Yeah.
How long is this podcast going to last?
Until the Red Sox win a series.
Oh, you said yesterday.
It's either 500 or win a series.
Well, yeah. It would take much longer. It's either 500 or win a series. Well, yeah.
It would take much longer.
It's a resemble of a baseball team that doesn't stink out loud.
Yeah, they're going to win a series to go back to Section 10.
Let's maybe break the fourth wall here for just a quick second.
We're so go.
What if this just works?
What if your downloads go up?
I mean, basketball is a much more popular sport than baseball.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Listen, we were already the most popular podcast in Massachusetts and Connecticut.
We need that Southwest.
Yeah.
We're trying to get in there.
Especially, you know, because I went down there.
I went to Phoenix for spring training.
Started scouting out some spots for our draft party.
That's where you left for the Suns, Burgeon, I believe.
Yep.
So we went down there.
And these t-shirts. For our draft party? What? Oh, yeah. I mean, Burgeon, I believe. Yep. So we went down there, and these T-shirts.
For our draft party.
What?
Oh, yeah.
I mean, we're going to have to throw.
I mean, me and Clem are eagerly awaiting the lottery.
Right.
And I would invite the hosts of Suns Out, Guns Out to maybe watch the lottery with us here.
Kevin, we invite you.
Yeah, we'll be in Phoenix for this draft party.
Actually, maybe we should reach out to the Suns.
Perhaps you guys could represent the team at the lottery.
That'd be pretty cool.
You'll be sitting there on that little panel and you guys will have to be quietly.
Name me two bigger Phoenix Suns fans.
You can't.
And also, you guys have to wear tank tops to have the guns out.
Yeah, no, we have merch.
Like, well, we're our own merch because they would be pissed if we weren't wearing our own merch.
But the Suns out,s Out shirts are on the store
now. What a logo.
What a t-shirt.
I don't think there are
any bigger Suns fans than you.
I don't think there are
any Suns fans other than
you guys. There's that old lady who took
them to task.
We're going to have to have her on the pod.
The one who had the town hall because they tried to move the suns earlier this year i know someone else knows
the story i'm talking about you've got to have her on the podcast and just have just her and
jared talk you can't even like say that we're the only suns fans because within minutes of us putting
that shirt on the store i was retweeting purchase after purchase after purchase it was my i thought
my mentions broke i thought i was seeing the same tweet over and over again. No, no, that's how many shirts
we were selling last night, Kevin.
If you had to give me your
Mount Rushmore of sons
players,
who would you say?
I mean, obviously, Steve Nash
is on there.
Hall of Famer?
Of course. Coley?
Yeah, Steve Nash is a Hall of Famer.
Okay, so one.
Who else is on your Mount Rushmore here?
You can get four.
I know you can.
Amari Stoudemire.
No, no, no.
Don't do that.
That doesn't count.
Why?
Because he's not good enough.
Because Zaz whispering.
I'm only talking to my...
Wait, what?
I don't think you can do that.
I think you can.
Wait, do people hear that?
No one heard that.
Everyone in here did.
No one on can do that. I think you can. Wait, do people hear that? No one heard that. Everyone in here did. No one on there heard that.
Steve Nash was...
Shut up, Don!
I don't know what you guys are talking about.
People can't hear it.
Who's the fat guy that's on the show with Shaq right now?
Maybe the round band of rebounds.
There you go.
Big Barkley guy.
How about a white...
There's a white guy who is.
He's absolutely never going to get this one.
No.
He's not going to get Thunder Dan Marley.
Thunder Dan Marley.
No.
I have no idea who that is.
Maybe a little Kevin Johnson.
KJ.
You're a big KJ guy.
Yeah.
Loved him.
See, Jared's more a modern Phoenix fan.
He's a big Eli Okobo guy.
Got it.
Yeah.
Got it.
Okay.
Tyson Chandler.
We look to the future, not the past on Suns Out Guns Out.
Hashtag Sogo.
Sogo.
I mean.
Last night, I was talking to our guy, Trigg, last night because I was having him design
the shirt and now it's the podcast logo.
I was having him design this.
I was like, we need like a happy Raisin Bran sun, sunglasses on, two guns in his hands.
And he couldn't, he's never made me a shirt faster in his life.
He was so happy to make this shirt.
And then me and Trigg for the next 45 minutes had a very serious discussion about the future of the Phoenix Suns.
He was like, I would absolutely listen to a show where you're breaking down.
They're an interesting spot.
Let me tell you what's happening right now what's that there is there are shockingly several phoenix suns
podcasts out there yeah the bright side of the sun the solar panel seven seconds or less the
timeline of phoenix suns podcast uh the run and gun oh that's that's almost suns out guns out run
and gun that's almost like infringement You might have to talk with those guys.
Does their logo have two guns,
Kevin? Because ours does.
Sunny and Phoenix, the bright side
of the sun, the spiritual Phoenix,
the empire of the suns.
There's a lot of competition for us.
I'm going to be honest, Kevin. We took about four and a half seconds
to come out with the name.
Sun's out guns out.
And those people should all be embarrassed.
You have a better name.
I will.
And,
and,
and what's happening right now is there are several Phoenix suns
podcasters out there who are like,
if you're looking at like the Phoenix suns podcast rankings,
if you're looking at your,
your,
your,
your charts and you see this dumb fucking baseball podcast who's just pulling a prank.
And it's like pop punk.
It's like there are people who have like rehearsed their dicks off for their lives trying to make it to Irving Plaza.
And pop punk sells it out in 35 seconds as a joke.
You know people were so fucking mad about that.
And I'm sure if you are out there and you have a legitimate Phoenix Suns podcast,
you already are like such a fucking weirdo.
Here's the problem.
And they are probably so mad.
Here's the problem, Kevin.
I could probably go like tit for tat with those people about the Phoenix Suns.
No doubt.
We got the ace up the sleeve.
Let me tell you this much.
The Suns Out, Guns Out podcast is the most informed
Phoenix Suns podcast on the planet.
We definitely have the hottest takes and the best
merch. By far the best merch.
Probably the only merch. I think we did have
one misstep. There should have never been
sleeves on this shirt.
It's also up to the listener
to be like, I want to take the
next step. I want to take the sleeves.
They should be zippable.
How about this? How about we almost
make it like a shoot-around warm-up?
We do some tear-away pants and a zip-up jacket.
I would be into that.
There shouldn't have been sleeves on it, though.
And how about we get in contact
with the gorilla?
We were talking about the gorilla.
And maybe both of you guys can do a little trampoline dunks.
Yeah, I would love to do something like that.
I would like to go out to Phoenix and do a live podcast with the people.
I'm pretty sure right now you will get an invite from the Phoenix Suns.
I'm pretty sure the gorilla used to dunk through a ring of fire,
if I remember things correctly.
Yeah, they used to go through the rim sometimes.
The Phoenix Suns are probably starving for attention.
Yeah.
Well, they got it.
They got it now.
In a league where it's so global and so popular,
they're probably at literally the bottom of the barrel being like,
but nobody talks about us.
Well, guess what?
You've got the premier podcast here on the Barstool Sports Network.
I'm thinking about some poor, like, Arizona Diamondbacks fan
who also likes the Phoenix Suns,
who was so thrilled when they acquired J.D. Martinez,
and now we've got it all.
We took their whole life from them.
We really do.
But don't you think that if you were to take the Section 10 download numbers,
which is now Suns Out, Guns Out, on Episode 1, So Go,
that we'll debut as the number one Suns podcast on Episode 1?
Correct.
I mean, it's just...
And the merch. I bet you...
Legitimately.
The merch.
Legitimately, we have probably
sold more Suns
podcast merch than all
of those Suns podcasts.
Combined. Combined.
They probably don't even have merch.
It's however many you sold to zero.
I'm sure there's a lot of like Fire Sarver or like Sarver sell the team shirts.
Maybe that, but there is nobody wearing a podcast, Suns podcast shirt.
There's nobody out there wearing a shirt that says the solar panel, a Phoenix Suns show.
These poor podcasts.
There is nobody out there wearing a shirt that says it's always sunny in Phoenix.
This is just not a thing. They don't exist.
These guys just want to talk McHale Bridges and now we're
just dragging them around the web.
If I could maybe
just throw out some ideas for you
guys. There is something called the
Spiritual Phoenix Podcast.
He's the
savvy seeker who
says this is an audio oasis and a paranormal portal.
I think maybe a crossover with him is in the works.
That guy has some big time mescaline on him at all times.
You guys really have to go take a trip out to Talking Stick.
Maybe do a live show.
Oh, we're definitely doing a live show.
You and all 35 Suns fans.
Do you think they would let us do it in the actual arena? I think they would
stop the game. Jared, they might let you suit up.
They might let you play like
Tony Romo with the Mavericks.
You might get some burn. I'd love to.
The Suns burn.
I can ball up.
They've never seen the gift of Jared Shearer.
Can you really? Yeah, I fucking make it rain.
You sound so white right now.
From beyond the arc. Raindrops!
He is a white. He is a white, but he sounds
extra white currently. I feel like you're not good at basketball.
Like,
I can see you being pretty bad.
Almost like I throw you the ball
and it's like, you know, Jared's a pretty athletic guy.
He can handle himself and you look just ridiculous trying to play
basketball. Is it that bad?
That's what I'm envisioning. I think he would show up to the
court and you would just see he was wearing
the same sneakers he wears to work.
And jeans. He'd be in jeans. He'd be shooting
three-pointers in fucking jeans. Yeah, but I
can do that.
I mean, I'll put myself in a disadvantage.
You know why you can? Look at this. You are the fucking
host of Sogo. The number one
sense podcast in the world. Kevin, why do you think
he called himself the rocket all this time? Because we're getting
to the fucking sun. Blast off, baby. We are going to the world. Kevin, why do you think he called himself the Rocket all this time? Because we're getting to the fucking Sun. Blast off,
baby. We are going to the Sun. Is there any
tension within the
SoGo team as far as who's
the host and who's running the ship here?
We are a united front.
We all have the same message here, and it's just
go Suns, go Tank for Zion.
I swear to God.
If the Suns get the first pick.
I just hope Jared and Steve
fully commit to this. If we talk
any Red Sox on the next episode, I'm going to be furious.
No.
Furious.
You cannot talk about the Red Sox.
I just want to make this clear.
We hadn't spoken yet. I wanted to make sure
it was a full commit from everyone.
If you do not commit to Sogo, you are idiots.
Steve sent topics over last night as a joke.
And I was like, if we don't talk about all of these things, I'm going to be furious.
We have a full docket of Suns topics for episode one of Sogo.
Are the section 10 listeners behind this?
They're buying the shit out of the merch.
Casey, who do you think is buying the shirts?
The best part about the shirt is it's definitely not a Red Sox podcast.
I mean, that's the best part.
There is, you know, Barstool's a cult, and then within that, Section 10's a cult.
And I really don't think there's any show, not even PMT, that could pull this off.
That could just completely re-release.
Get out of the sport completely.
This is so
insanely stupid. To a sport not even
like, they're not in season anymore.
They literally have nothing to talk about.
You started a podcast like right
as the season ended. This is so
insanely idiotic.
So preposterously moronic.
There's only one crew of guys that could pull this off
on the planet. It's you idiots. And it's happening.
Episode one drops tomorrow.
But what if
some sponsor is like, wow,
we saw that
section 10 slash Sogo is like,
the downloads are up like 30%.
We'd like to commit to this and you guys can't
go back. I mean, Coley
likes to watch basketball. He might just start. You know, he might be his western conference team is going to be i've
watched i've watched more phoenix suns basketball than i care to admit that's what i'm saying it's
like if it does work out if that's the case then we can just start so go on a separate feed well
now are is there any going to be is there any problems with your other business coley uh is
tyler maybe like hey how about we save the save the Phoenix Suns basketball talk for our basketball podcast?
No, because Tyler's always known that's, I mean, we've talked about basketball
like five minutes this year on Mixtape.
So it really, and when we do, I just bitch about the Celtics.
So it, like, I don't think there's really any problem there.
I think he'll be supportive of this.
He understands what the market is.
Yeah, listen, I mean, wow. Once understands what the market is. Yeah, listen.
Once you see the merch flying, it's undeniable. Jared pitched him Sogo months ago and he passed.
So that was really odd. He didn't see the vision.
He didn't see the vision. That's what I'm saying.
You can't really water it down to the point
where we're talking Phoenix Suns on mixtape
for one segment that might last
25 minutes when we could
literally just designate
an hour and a half to Sons Talk twice a week.
We are a twice a week podcast, by the way.
You will get yourself three full hours.
I'm going to have to start coming up with the topics because Steve did his best,
but he used all of his Phoenix Suns information for the episode one.
I think like Steve Nash is on the docket.
Have you talked to any of our bookers about getting some Phoenix Suns players past or present to come through?
We should.
We should honestly.
I mean, yeah, Aiton's close personal friend, so we can get him literally whenever we want.
I think the gorilla is the white whale.
Dan Katz like owns a basketball team with Sean Marion, so we could get him.
The Matrix.
Let's get him for episode one.
Get him on the horn for tonight?
Yeah.
What are you doing tonight?
Four-way Skype.
Yeah, Sogo.
If we drop the first episode of Sogo
with an actual Phoenix Sun,
those Suns podcasts would all self-immolate themselves.
They would kill themselves.
Yeah.
It would explode.
Maybe I'll tweet at the book, man.
Yeah, you get the verified check
yeah
this is the dumbest thing we've ever done
Devin Booker
I love it
I can't remember the complete genesis
I know me and Jared had a quick tiff before the show
I think if I recall
before the show we were like what are we going to do
if they lose this series
and I was just like we'll just talk about a different sport entirely and i think jared was like we'll just be a son's podcast
yes is that what happened i think that's how it went down and then i said sons out guns out guns
out all right so you had the son's idea i had the name sons out guns yes and the logo i'm holding
the logo it's just if you are a phoenix sons, you whiffed so hard on the name, the logo, the content, the stars, the market, all of it.
I'm tweeting at Devin Booker right now.
Be like, I would love to have you on my Suns podcast.
What's your Twitter name right now?
We literally switched section 10 to Suns at Guns Out.
Like our Twitter.
Did you?
It looks so official.
I wouldn't say it.
It looks so good.
At section 10 pod.
I almost,
I hope,
I would love there to be
like a section.
If there's a section.
The pin tweet is like
a Steve Nash
like highlight reel.
If there's a section 10 in pin tweet is like a Steve Nash highlight reel. If there's a section 10 in that arena,
and you guys can sit...
There has to be a section 10 in that arena.
I mean...
It's got over a thousand likes.
Yeah, it's got to be one of my biggest tweets of the season.
This is one of the more obnoxious things we've ever pulled.
Listen, how else...
Dave thought him pulling out the cell phone to deflect from Tiger was an all time move.
No, no.
You just completely commit to a different sport.
Maybe the most desolate franchises in all of sports.
That's how you do it.
And I will tell you what.
Not only is this a good business move, but you know, we're not talking about right now is the Boston Red Sox.
Yeah, we're not fucking sucking because we're Suns fans.
I don't know why you talk to us about that. Why would I have Suns fans on the show to talk about to now is the Boston Red Sox. Yeah, we're not. Fucking sucking. Because we're Suns fans. I don't know why you talked to us about that.
Yeah, why would I have Suns fans on this show to talk about
the Boston Red Sox?
Hey, Devin Book, would love to have you on
my Suns podcast sometime.
My show about
the Phoenix Suns. Your team.
Jared was literally talking to
Pedro Martinez last week.
See you later, pal. Have any of the Red Sox
players said anything to you?
About what?
The podcast?
The fact that there's no longer a Red Sox podcast?
I mean, I would like to let them know.
What's the manager got to say about this?
Yeah.
What's JD going to say?
He'll think it's funny.
JD will think it's funny.
What about Alex Cora?
He'll be like...
I mean, no one's going to care about this, really.
Yeah, I think they should not.
I think the Red Sox players and teams specifically should be thrilled.
We're choosing to talk about something else rather than bashing.
This is a great turn of events for that.
Hey, Devin Booker, would love to have you on my son's podcast sometime.
Let me know.
Hashtag Sogo.
Hashtag Sogo.
The hashtag is really what makes this stick.
Slays me.
Sogo kills me.
I mean, all of it is good.
Kevin, you want to talk about Sogo encroaching on Mick.
Friend, you're the one trying to encroach on Mick.
I don't know what happened, Cole.
I don't know what happened.
I don't know how it happened.
That's me every week.
We were doing voicemails, and I was like, all right, next voicemail.
And my brother's looking at me like, what the fuck? All right, play it. And we do another one. I'm like, doing voicemails and I was like, all right, next voice on them. My brother's looking at me like, what the fuck?
All right.
Like play it.
And then we do another one.
I'm like, next voice.
He's like, no, we got to stop.
I was like, why?
He's like, we're at two hours and 45 minutes right now.
I don't know what happened.
We did.
We had two interviews.
We, we did, uh, we had like our usual opening segment that I guess ran long.
We talked about something like a bachelorette party story that ran long.
Next thing you know, we're in mixtape territory.
Back off.
Beat it.
I mean, there's only...
Scrams, get out of here.
I'm going to follow him just so that he knows I'm for real.
Yeah.
Have you changed your bio?
Suns podcast at Barstool Sports.
Jared, what do you think about
there was some
criticism in the
late uh the late
stages of the season
yeah devin book
went off for what
50 something again
60 maybe whatever
it was and there
was some talk about
who was it somebody
like fouled him hard
it was like he's not
gonna get 50 on my
watch you know
what i'm talking
about i do i can't
remember who fouled
him because i'm still
i'm still filled with
rage that that
happened yeah i
was gonna say jared what do, what are your thoughts on that?
I was ripped.
Maybe was there an argument to be made that this guy is just out there
trying to get his buckets for personal stats and personal glory,
and it's not really the right way to play the game, perhaps?
No, it's like get your money.
Points is dollars.
You know what I'm saying?
You try and get out there, and you try and hit buckets,
and that's how you get your payday at the end of the day.
Points is dollars.
Hashtag Sogo.
That's what we've been saying on Sogo from the onset, Kevin.
Yeah.
Points is dollars, baby.
Who's at the helm over there?
Who's running the ship?
It's just always been Sarver.
It doesn't matter who.
I think James Jones is the GM.
It doesn't matter.
It's Sarver.
Sarver just does it.
Fucking Igor.
This guy, Igor. Let me tell you. doesn't matter it's sarver sarver just does it fucking igor he this guy this guy igor let me
tell you the it's his first year where the us suns fans know this we've we're on three coaches in the
last two seasons we fired earl watson eight games into last season yeah uh because we're fucking
inept we're an inept organization kevin which is why sogo needs to be the voice of of us fans who
just dismay general dismay around the team. So Igor,
he's been in the league one year,
and they did like, the Athletic
put out the
not unanimous, anonymous
players poll where they
take it from
33% of just the whole league.
And it was like, which coach other than your own
would you not want to play for?
So this is a guy no one even knows, and they're all just like, oh yeah, I wouldn't want to play for him.
I think he came in second.
It's just like, they don't even have a reason really.
Yeah, his name's fucking Igor, so I'm not going to listen to him.
I'm changing my entire Twitter bio too.
I host a son's podcast for at Barstool Sports.
Coley, do you believe that...
I believe the Knicks are going to get this first pick. I really do.
You think they're going to rig it? I do.
They're going to start it? I think so.
I think if there's ever a time to do it, it's now.
Would you be upset?
And also, as a basketball fan,
do you believe these reports that are
basically like, Kevin Durant's going to the Knicks?
No, I sure don't.
Like Rick Buecher, I think it was.
It was like 99% done deal.
99%?
What the fuck are we talking about?
I said to Clem before the season, I put it at a 25% chance Durant goes to the Knicks
only because...
Where did it start?
What was the genesis?
Did he say something?
No, he didn't.
It's not that he said something, but there's a general feeling around the league that...
What does that mean?
That he's not completely satiated with... He's a big time, and he has said this league that he's not completely
satiated with. He's a big time,
and he has said this before, he's a big time
where he ranks all-time guy.
He thinks that's why he
went to Golden State.
He wanted the ring for that.
It's not even reviving the Knicks. It's just like, if I can get
myself back in MVP conversations,
if I can get them to Eastern
Conference Finals, like finals territory.
Right, right.
Because he got his rings and now wants to take on a project that is maybe
arguably the hardest thing in sports right now, given the ownership and
bring them to prominence or at least contention and that he's going to get
all the credit for it.
Because he got his rings.
So now it's like, all right, now I can go.
So if he does anything with the Knicks, it'll make his whole resume
bulletproof as opposed to if he just has the Warriors.
Do you think if he goes to the Knicks and pulls basically a Carmelo and doesn't do anything, that it hurts him?
No.
It's kind of a no risk sort of thing.
Right.
Because everyone would just be like, well, the story won't be, oh my God, Kevin Durant couldn't get it done.
It'll be even Kevin Durant can't thrive with James Dole.
And that's how bad he is.
Right.
But this,
this idea,
this notion that it's like more people are thinking it's more likely than
not that you're going to get Kyrie Durant and Zion.
What are you talking about?
That's absolutely any team that the chances of that are slim.
Certainly the New York Knicks.
Yeah.
I,
I,
I do lean into the idea that he would go there if kairi
was there because i i people are like what if they just got zion no one has been like oh this
generational rookie i'm gonna go hitch my wagon to him yeah you play with guys like within your
own age range yes so carriers drafted a few years later they've been through so many team usas
together they've been to so many all-Star games together, all that shit.
That's what matters more to these guys.
Like, who is in my – that's why everyone always talks about the Banana Boat Crew and shit like that.
Like, who's in my circle?
Your contemporaries, your peers.
Yeah, exactly.
No one's gone to New Orleans to be like, oh, I need to play with this Anthony Davis guy.
No one's gone to – and, of course, there's cap restrictions and shit like that.
But no one's even been like, hey, anyone can get cap space.
You can create cap space very
easily. Pat Riley does it every fucking
summer. So if someone was like, hey, that
Kyle Anthony Townsend is really good. I don't care that
it's in Minnesota. I just know I want to play with him.
No one's ever done that because no one his age
has had that chance yet.
So it's just not a thing.
If it's just Zion, I think that's a good
thing for the Knicks. Well, here's my hot take.
If I could choose between those three,
Section 10 podcast has put up a picture of Charles Barkley on Instagram.
If I had to choose between just Zion and those three,
I think I would pick just Zion.
Because you don't want the expectations?
I don't want the expectations.
I don't want it to be Durant's team.
I want it to be Zion's team.
I think that this, I think Zion will be
the start, hopefully, of
like changing the, I hate
the phrase, but changing the culture and growing
like to hopefully some more long-term
success. Yeah, I think if you have a big three,
particularly two guys
who are, you know, they've got off the court
drama. Durant's
got his like, you know, his've got off-the-court drama. Durant's got his, like, you know, his kind of, like, whiny persona.
Burner counts.
Kyrie is, I don't want to say a malcontent.
He's not that bad.
But, you know, there's always talk around them.
You know what I'm saying, though?
It's not like they're, you know, the easiest couple guys.
I do wonder.
I would rather just be like, here's Zion.
Here are the keys.
We're going to build around you.
Because even, like you were saying about your Phoenix Suns,
about, you know, is it the right fit?
Like, I want everyone to fit around Zion, not Kevin Durant,
not Kyrie Irving.
And I want it to be like, you're going to proceed like a rookie will.
Like the first couple of years, no pressure, no expectations,
get your feet under you.
I would rather that than, boom, all of a sudden the Knicks are like,
are they going to win the finals?
You know, I've made sudden the Knicks are like, are they going to win the finals?
I've made similar arguments when it was like, oh, let's trade Jalen and Marcus Smart for Jimmy Butler.
Let's accelerate this timeline.
So I do get where you're coming from, and I don't hate the expectations thing,
because the Knicks with expectations is just a hilarious thought.
It's just building for the short term and the long term.
Yeah, but I guess, do you think that if they had those three, they'd be a legitimate finals contender?
I don't think they would ever play together.
They trade Zion.
Oh, shit.
You can't do that.
I don't think they would like, cause the whole thing, like I do think Kyrie and Durant want
to play together.
I think most good NBA players want to play together.
Reminds me of trading Wiggins for love.
Yeah.
You know, it was like, let's get this done now.
Right.
Cause LeBron, like Wiggins was a can't miss too. Like people can talk about him now, but when he was coming know, it was like, let's get this done now. Right, because LeBron, like, Wiggins was a can't miss, too.
Like, people can talk about him now, but when he was coming out, it was like, oh, no, this
is the next guy.
And he even tried to do it right now with the Lakers.
Like, you got this young core to grow with.
It's like, no, let's go get Anthony Davis.
Right.
So it's like LeBron did that.
And at the time, I was like, I get this for both sides.
Kevin Love was on the trading block for like three years.
LeBron didn't want to play with Andrew Wiggins.
LeBron hates anyone younger than like 29
which I kind of do too
but he
never wanted to play with Andrew Wiggins
and I thought it was mutually beneficial
turns out Andrew Wiggins kind of stinks
so that's where it falls off, Kevin Love won a ring
Cavs ended up winning that trade
but yeah, no, trading
if Kevin Durant and Kyrie do sign with the Knicks
which I put it like a 10% chance
I don't see any chance they play a single game of Zion what would you think the haul would be? If Kevin Durant and Kyrie do sign with the Knicks, which I put it like a 10% chance,
I don't see any chance they play a single game of Zion.
What would you think the haul would be?
I think they'd go get AD.
Damn.
Now you want to talk expectations. Yeah.
I mean, like, it sounds crazy.
Like, if you told me that KD, Kyrie Irving, and Anthony Davis are going to come to the Knicks
and win a championship, being like the starved me that KD, Kyrie Irving, and Anthony Davis are going to come to the Knicks and win a championship,
being, like, the starved fan that I am,
I can't, like, turn down a title.
You wouldn't turn down a title at all.
No, but I really would like to let...
Build.
Yes, I would like Zion to be here for fucking 20 years
and, like, create... once once they win that ring you
know durant durant will probably bounce again and then you're like right back to where you were
now granted you know flags fly forever you have a fucking banner up there next to billy joel
for once uh you can't say no to that but the allure of just being like you have a lebron james
type you know you have a guy who's going to be here for and they're going to do it like the right way, not a super team way.
And you're going to have it for extended period of time.
And it's going to be Zion at the garden.
That just sounds more fun to me than being like we bought a championship.
But I can't say no to a championship, obviously.
It's also like I'm wondering, Anthony Davis, I've been like very cooled off on this whole
season, how he handled this shit
and him wearing the that's all folks t-shirt and then saying someone else picks my clothes
wearing it is like lame but like it's the NBA it's petty it's dramatic it's so Barbara but
then don't tell me like I don't know what you're talking about right if someone put out like a
Hitler youth outfit he just throws that on is that what he's trying to tell me I mean who wouldn't
look at what if that just said N-word across the front?
You look at what
you're wearing.
He absolutely knew.
Yeah.
I mean, come on.
There's no chance.
Do you put any stock
into like the, you
know, if he's so good,
why are they never
in contention?
I mean, a little.
I mean, it felt a lot
like Carmelo to me.
That was always my
argument.
Like, I'm not
expecting you to win
a title, but like,
why are you not even,
why are you bottom
fucking five? Yeah. Every time the pelicans were weird
because all of their advance pelicans but yeah no the cans i love the cans not they're not as much
of my sons but i'm a big cans guy what i don't like they just seem to have had like they've kind
of had the same season two years in a row like they had the they ranked the same for like their
offense like last year to this year they ranked the same no progress but it was no they took like a huge
step back wins wise and i think even their point differential was the same so it's just like
shitty like i barstool call tweeted out um the brewers like run differential how many runs they've
given up how many runs they've scored and the cubs and the cubs had better they'd scored more
runs and they had allowed less and they had like 10 less wins or something.
I know that's not the number, but it's just like, that's kind of what the Pelicans had
over these last two years.
Got it.
So it's like, I don't even think the Pelicans have done, they haven't done a great job by
any stretch.
They haven't done the poorest job either.
Like Drew Holliday's might be third team All-NBA this year.
Yeah.
Like he's a monster.
I do think letting Rondo go was a mistake.
I know Rondo's still not the most, he's not 2011 talented Rondo,
but he coached that team last year.
That's why they just dominated the trailblazers out of the first round.
You get rid of that guy, you bring in Julius Randle.
I don't know if that fit worked as well as, I liked you.
I think he played well.
I don't know if that fit ever worked.
And I think Anthony Davis just grew tired.
But if he had actually played all year,
like I don't think them being an eight seed would have been crazy.
I think he's just a dickhead and a dweeb.
And just didn't want to be there.
I mean, he's a flat out, just did not want to be there.
On the Suns?
No, he'd leave immediately.
Would you potentially, let's say you get, Jared, maybe you get the top.
You don't get the number one pick.
Let's say you get the number two or three pick.
I would rather not put that in the universe.
Would you consider packaging that pick, not the top overall pick,
for Anthony Davis and bring him to Phoenix.
What pick are we talking here? Number two?
Let's say two. So it could be Ja Morant.
If it's not Zion... You know Ja Morant, right?
Yeah, of course. If it was...
I would trade the number two pick for Anthony
Davis. Yeah, I would. But do you think he would
re-sign? Would he buy into Phoenix Suns
culture? Because you only got him for one year at that point.
I know. That's the problem. You know what?
I would say this. Maybe in the past, no,
but I think Anthony Davis maybe heard
of a little podcast that's coming around these days.
And how the fan base is rallying
and supporting. We're basically a selling
point for the organization. At this point, yeah.
You come to play for Phoenix. Devin Booker won,
so go to. Yeah.
We are absolutely going to a break and we'll come back
and we'll start the radio show.
Do you want to do these questions?
We're not doing this.
Teen Jeopardy on CCK.
Let's go.
Shakespeare called this couple a pair of star-crossed lovers.
What is Romeo and Juliet?
That's right.
Thumper is the title Disney character's best friend.
Oh, fucking... Thumper's a rabbit.
Thumper's a rabbit, and so they're in the forest with other animals.
Bambi?
The jungle bug.
Yeah, Bambi.
The jungle bug.
The olfactory nerves affect this sense in the brain.
Say it again.
The olfactory nerves.
I mean, it's like five senses, so you can just take it.
Smells.
Yeah.
Jared goes, yeah.
This colorful body of water separates Saudi Arabia from Africa.

The Mediterranean Sea.
No, it's a colorful sea.
Red Sea?
Black Sea?
Oh, colorful.

Damn.
The bowler and the fez are both types of these.
The fez, you wear it in the Middle East.
That's 70s show characters.
Yeah.
What do you wear?
Are you playing, Kevin?
Yeah, but I didn't know it.
It's a hat.
The Fez is a hat, right?
Yes.
Yeah.
Henry VIII married this many Catherines.

This is the only mythological animal mentioned in a Harry Potter book title.
The only mythological animal I know is the centaur.
That's not it.
And I read the Harry Potter books.
I couldn't tell you a single thing about Harry Potter.
This is really appropriate.
It's Phoenix.
Hell yeah.
Phoenix.
Yeah.
I haven't read those books since I was in like fifth grade. In the South, hominy, when ground is more popularly known as this.

Smarter than a 14-year-old.
That's crazy that those are for high school.
Now, I'm sure there are people out there that just listen to that and feel like we're the dumbest people on the planet.
Why?
I bet you there's a lot of people at home who are like,
I can't get these things right.
I made up a name.
Andrew Jefferson's really funny.
Andrew Jefferson is probably a real person.
He just wasn't a person.
He just wasn't a person.
Public office.
Andrew Jackson, Thomas Jefferson.
I thought it was a vice president.
Andrew Jefferson?
No.
He didn't ask us for a president.
He asked us for a vice president.
Right.
Andrew Jefferson is entirely possible.
It's entirely possible that there was someone vice president. Right. Andrew Jefferson is entirely possible. It's entirely
possible that there was someone in
early American history named Andrew Jefferson.
Yes. Not a president though.
Had he asked for an actual
president, I would have known that. How many presidents do you think
you could name?
Not all of them.
How many?
Even just naming all the states
is tough. No, I can do that, but I have to sing it.
Really? There's a song?
There's an amount of time. I can't
remember what it is. I was at the bar once,
and my buddy was like, I bet you can't
name all 50 states in seven minutes
or something like that. And I was like, absolutely
I can. And you rattle off
35, and then you
got to start to think, and then you rattle off
10 more, and then you get down to you're at 47 or 48, and you got to start to think and then you rattle off like 10 more and then you get down to
like you know you're at like 47 or 48 and you have to just start like running through the ones you've
already said and and it's like a sweat i don't think i did it i think i ended up failing the
challenge whatever the time constraint was it's harder than you think it would be yeah it's it's
harder definitely to look at a map too like even in like the middle states of america i mean but
it's not just because we're coastal assholes though well and i mean from texas it's like oh well texas is the only
state that actually matters and then i moved to the coast and here we are um i you know how when
you say the abc sometimes you sing the song yeah of course that's why i am with the states i sing
it go i'm not singing do it do it case i mean we're not like it's like karaoke it's like abc
this is an actual like melody give me like actual melody. Give me a little bit.
Give me a little bit.
Casey. There's Alabama,
Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas,
California. I'm not doing this.
Come on! No. That was good.
It's beautiful. A voice of an angel.
Is it all in alphabetical order? Yeah.
So in that case, you could do the challenge in like a minute.
Yeah, then it starts ramping up.
Although one time I tried to do it recently when I like, I don't know, I was talking to my sister and she was like, remember that song?
I was like, yeah, and then I did it.
And there's like a part where it gets really fast and I feel like I probably messed it up.
So just sing the song to yourself, but listen.
Yeah, see how long?
Arizona, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri.
See, it gets fast.
Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North and South Carolina, North Dakota, South Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania.
Fuck.
And then I can just skip to Texas.
Texas.
More than I would have known.
Oh, no.
I got to finish it.
No, no.
I don't want to finish right now, but I'm going to finish it in my head because then I'm going to come back once I remember it.
I mean, the amount of shit that you learn
that just goes right out your brain
after a couple years is, I mean, like...
What was it, the onomatopoeia song?
What's that?
It's like, I don't remember it,
but I just know there was like a song
to remember all like the onomatopoeia words.
Those are the words that sound like they are...
From for after are from for after
out by to a boat above a cross
among against inside before between behind
around. Those are not onomatopoeias. What is that?
Those are prepositions, right? No.
Conjunctions. No.
Do you remember the conjunction junction?
Yeah, I remember that.
Wait, what is your song?
From for after. Am I wrong? Onomatopoeias are words like
pow, right? Oh yeah, maybe Forester. Am I wrong? Automata P is a word that's like pow, right?
Oh, yeah, maybe.
Crash.
They sound like they are.
I think everything you just said is a preposition, but I'm terrible at grammar.
Yeah, I don't remember what those were.
This is the dumb episode of CCK.
Kevin.
Kevin.
Kevin.
Kevin.
Kevin.
You're just ridiculously stupid.
Welcome, welcome, welcome.
Is this Kevin? Welcome back.
Welcome back. From what was the most intense internet day, maybe in the history of our lives.
It was insane.
Which is basically maybe of all time.
I just,
I just got out of KFC radio,
new episode tomorrow where I broke down some of the more,
uh,
intense internet days.
And I,
I,
I just,
I think given the circumstances,
I don't think you can top it.
Jared's out.
We're going to have Trent sit in because,
uh,
for the foreplay guys,
it was,
it was them.
It was their entire existence coming to a head.
Both of them big Game of Thrones fans.
Both of them, meaning both of them, I say Riggs and Trent.
I know Frankie was also in the mix, but he was more about the Islanders.
So everyone on the foreplay podcast team had almost everything on the line.
They had a day.
From Tiger to the Islanders to Game of Thrones, foreplay.
It was a make or break day for every single member of your podcast, Trent.
Yes, it was.
I mean, that was.
Let me ask you this.
Okay.
You're a big Thrones guy, but obviously a bigger Tiger guy, right?
Are you a bigger anything guy than Tiger?
I don't think so.
And the reason why I love my home state very much, but I would say just because of the time that it took for Tiger, like Game of Thrones is what?
Eight, seven, nine years now.
And Tiger has been going on basically my entire life.
And the drought is about the same.
Right.
It is 11 years.
OK, so it's even longer than.
Yeah.
So I would say my commitment to that.
I've been more involved with that over the course of my life. And Game of Thrones is just like, this is fun.
Everything's always moving in a positive direction, even though it's Game of Thrones.
And it's not real life, obviously.
Tiger is like, and it's obviously ramped up since I started working here.
And you got to deal with the haters and the people who say he's never going to win again and all that.
So I would say Tiger just barely beats out Game of Thrones. Can you remember a more a higher stakes day starting at 9 a.m.
with with Tiger going till starting at 9 p.m.
Game of Thrones mixing in NHL and NBA playoffs in between with the barstool
angle of basically all these stories.
I mean, I think that's got to be the one.
I think it's definitely the one.
Even if it was just Tiger Game of Thrones or even if it was just the Masters of Game of Thrones, I think it'd be a be the one. I think it's definitely the one. Even if it was just Tiger Game of Thrones.
Or even if it was just the Masters of Game of Thrones,
I think it would be a big deal.
You had Tiger fucking Woods.
Yeah.
And we lucked out with the early tee time.
Incredible.
I was really.
That's the internet god shining a fun.
It really is the first time in Masters history
that they do these early tee times,
these split tees because weather's rolling into Augusta.
And it's a five-hour difference
because they would have teed off at two 30 as opposed to nine 30.
And for guys like for the normal person,
that doesn't really matter.
They're just like,
all right,
I'm going to go from one thing to the next.
But for us,
we were for the foreplay guys,
we would have,
we did the math.
We would have been recording the reaction podcast at eight 30.
And then we would have had to somehow turn around and like get ready for
game of Thrones.
So them doing nine 20 instead of 2 30
is like that is the internet gods being like here you go internet gods got together with real god
and was like i need some rain yeah can you throw us a couple thunderbolts because we need to make
sure that that everyone on the internet can enjoy both these things and the fact that you were able
to process it too i mean it wasn't like you it wasn't like you rolled right into it still on
the tiger high like you when you guys walked in here last night to watch the yeah the premiere it was like you'd already experienced
like the high of your woman you guys reminded me of like after you get married like the day after
it's kind of like rolling into congrats yeah yeah it's exactly like that where it's like a
congratulations but it's also like a like you did it you made it you're safe you're good it all went
off without a hitch right like it was congratulations, but more of a like,
I'm happy you're good sort of thing.
I really love getting congratulations for something that I had nothing to do.
The amount of people who were like.
It's really my favorite thing in the world.
Fran walked into, was it you or Ray?
It was me.
Yeah, like shake his hand.
Shook my hand.
Like what the fuck are we doing here?
It's awesome.
I've gotten probably 10 to 15 congratulations.
Obviously we've been doing this thing.
Like we've been Tiger supporters, certainly since been doing this thing. We've been Tiger
supporters certainly since we started the
podcast. We're hardcore. We're never dropping
off despite the scandals, the injuries, and
all that. But I
didn't hit a single shot yesterday.
People are showering me with praise like I did
something. In an internet persona world,
what you did is a grind.
There were
some dark times.
I asked Trent this. I'm going gonna ask you the same question casey uh well actually first let me ask
you did you were you were you on like their side like tiger's gonna win again yes and did you
actually believe that or were you saying it just because you wanted it to be true and in the event
that it did become true you can say like i was with my guy the whole time like a year and a half ago or so i did not think it at all in fact i went on this whole rant
when i was in boston on tv about how i almost wanted him to hang it up because i didn't like
watching him miss cuts right and he's like wincing every time he's taking a shot and i was like i
he's one of my childhood sports heroes because of my dad and my grandpa i don't want to see him
struggling so i was like if he's going to continue to do this i don't want to see him play anymore but then he started you could tell he started having fun again
and so then i was like well i think fun for the first time i don't even know if i would say again
even when he was dominating i don't think he had fun there was like at some point and trent you'd
obviously know this better than me that at some point that it was just kind of like a switch
happened over the last like couple of years where it was like he looked miserable and then he at
least looked like he was back there enjoying it and then then I was like, he's going to win again.
I did not think he was going to win the Masters again.
I really didn't.
I asked Trent this morning.
I said, did you really think when you were saying, like you said, in the dark days of the scandal and the pills and the injuries and the arrests,
were you genuinely like, no, no, no, I'm right.
He's going to win.
Or were you just saying that?
And Trent looked at me and he just said, no, I believed it.
Did you think he was going to win the Masters?
You can never flinch.
I knew he was going to win the Masters.
I didn't think it.
I knew it.
I knew it deep down.
You are right when you say a couple of years.
These last couple of years, he's become happier in what he's doing.
He seems to be enjoying himself.
Early on when he was dominant, I mean, he was an asshole to everybody.
I still feel like Earl, his father, made it like a military thing almost.
He had to play it when he was a kid.
I think he was a classic case of a kid who probably just wanted to ride his bike and play video games and jerk off.
But he was great at golf and his dad made him do it.
It became a job from the time he was probably eight years old.
Oh, much earlier.
If you read the book, which is called Tiger Woods.
That's the name of the book.
Appropriately named.
It's about Tiger Woods.
But Tiger Woods didn't write it.
He did not.
He did not write it, but it is called Tiger Woods.
But it starts basically as early as you can.
And his parents, both of them, are just like, this is what you're going to do.
You're very good at this.
You showed some skill.
And now we're just going to drive it into you to the point where it's obviously tons of golf practice, tons of tournaments at the at a very young age,
but they would give him tapes and that he would listen to and like
mind altering being like, this is what you got to do. It's all about this. It's domination.
It's this and it's that. So yes, probably throughout a lot of his career. He was
just like, this is what I'm supposed to be doing. It's a Jason Bourne.
That's exactly what it's like. They tore him down and they rebuilt him as like an assassin.
Right.
That's 100%.
Don't you feel bad for Jason Bourne in those movies?
Like, God damn, this guy, like he's supposed to live a normal life.
You do.
There are parts of the book where it's a sympathetic type of view of Tiger as opposed to like,
he's just this golden child who had these skills and was able to do it.
It is sort of like, holy shit, he didn't really have a choice in this at all.
Fast forward to
post-scandal, post-injury,
now he's all fused up
in the back. He is happier.
He's an elder. He's become an elder
statesman in golf. We call him Yoda Tiger
where this generation that he inspired,
all these awesome golfers, are now
on the PGA Tour.
For guys like me, it's sort of like
I still want him to win, but
it was cool for him to be like, oh, he's going to dinners with these guys and he texts with
these guys.
And it's very fun.
So now that we've got kind of best of both worlds where he is that guy, he's this godlike
figure to them because they know what he had done in the past.
Now he is back to that godlike figure because he's winning.
It was awesome.
When he, after he walked off the 18th green at Augusta yesterday, JT was waiting.
Ricky was waiting.
Bubble was waiting ricky was waiting bubble was waiting and it's it's now it's like all right now we get to play with the guy that people have always been talking about that we grew up watching i think for them they should be scared
shitless honestly because now that they know he can win majors again they should be like oh fuck
but i also think there's a part of them that's like this is the guy i wanted to play well they're
saying the same thing about his kids like this is the first time his kids have ever witnessed like tiger be
tiger it's very funny when in the past before year one he's like my kids have no idea who i am
like i am literally one of the most dominant athletes ever ever ever ever and they're just
like they're just like my dad with the bad back and the shitty hairline like i don't know who this
motherfucker is divorce from my mom yeah like i, they maybe watch clips on YouTube and stuff, but they don't have any idea.
And now, obviously, the big thing going viral is the clip of him hugging Charlie and the
one with him hugging Earl.
It's all very emotional.
I didn't end up crying.
Sort of because of this place where you're just like, all the time, you're like, oh,
this and this and that.
I don't have, like, time to cry.
Did Frankie cry?
Frankie did not cry.
Shocking.
Frankie could barely.
Neither did Tiger.
No tears from anybody who I thought was going to cry yesterday. Frankie cry? Frankie did not cry. Shocking. Frankie could barely Neither did Tiger. No tears from anybody who
I thought was going to cry yesterday. Frankie couldn't breathe.
Yeah. I mean, I thought he was going to have a
heart attack. Frankie lost about five or ten
years off his life. This is just one of those things where the fact that
right after Tiger makes that putt, the
Islanders score, like, if he can survive that,
I think Frankie's going to live to his 150. Yeah, that's
true. Like, if you're not going to have a heart attack in that moment,
then you're going to be totally healthy. You don't even
need to go to the doctor anymore. You're going to be totally fine.
So Tiger, the vibe that Tiger has now,
I almost feel like was like Jordan on the Wizards,
where he was kind of like still,
it would be like Jordan on the Wizards if he had like one now
and then he won a Masters, if Jordan had won a title.
But where he was kind of like enjoying it a little more,
like there was laughing at times,
but there was still flashes of his like competitive freak showness.
But he never was going to like make it back to the top the way that tiger has
now my whole thing and i was on i'm on the list you've been on the list for so long you're so
high on it i like don't even remember why i neither do i because you know because there are
people in this office who have very publicly rooted against tiger and i feel like you were
always kind of like if it happens it happens i'm well i'm there for in the beginning i i it was more i was never rooting against tiger i just
thought you guys were stupid for how absolutely convinced you were that he was going to win again
and that's why i posed the question again to you today because if someone like if someone says to
you like you know uh like if i'm mets fans like we're gonna win the world series and it's like
you have no fucking reason to believe that and if you wanted to be a blind fan and have faith fine but there was no logical reason at that
point to say he was gonna make it back correct unless i mean i guess you could just say no he's
the best of all time i think if there's anyone who can overcome these odds it's him but when it was
its darkest it was just like the back injury alone probably should have been enough to count him out of the mass.
No doubt about it.
Let alone the drugs and the scandal and the mental aspect of it all.
So I commend you guys for sticking through.
I just don't think there was any logical reason to do that.
I think it was a perfect example of just being a fan.
We're just like, nope, I'm going to ride with this guy because I think if there was a gun to your guy's head, I don't know.
I think it would be different.
I mean, that's the thing is, what were you going to say, though?
Like, if you love Tiger, it's not like, oh, yeah, you know what?
He's done for.
Like, he's just absolutely never going to win.
You have to stick with the winning side.
I think you guys were 27 rings Yankees fans where you're just like, I'm just going to.
Maybe.
I'm not going to be logical and say.
It works, though.
The Yankees, they kind of stink right now.
It's just going to be like, nope, we're the best.
We're the best.
I would say the last straw that I was always holding on to was sort of something you alluded
to where he was so good.
Right.
He was so good that that the amount of talent in that body can't just like go away completely.
Yeah.
He can't just completely vanish.
Like I understand he's getting older and he's got a horrible back and horrible knees and
the scandals and the mental stuff has kind of gone in terms of dominating the other guys.
But he's still like was the guy who did all those things.
And you're almost conditioned to be like, this who i am i can go out there and do
this like it's not always just going to completely go away i think at the darkest times like dui
pill addiction back surgery that's what i was always holding on to like this guy who i watched
early in his career dominates so much cannot just completely. It would almost be worse if he had just,
if he didn't have all those things.
Yes.
If he just was playing poorly.
If he just started to like,
if he was Albert Pujols,
you know, like Albert Pujols was on track
to blow every record out of the water.
And then he just like slowed down.
He just like couldn't maintain it.
Where Tiger always had a reason
that was holding him back.
Right.
So he cleared up the addiction.
Well, as far as we know,
like the addiction issues,
he's not getting arrested anymore.
He did get his back fused. He's probably i'm just i'm good again like i'm good meaning
like i'm set again for the first time in 10 years 100 so that's why it could be scary that i think
i think one of two things like either like he's back back or maybe this was like not his last
hurrah but like maybe you know he put everything into this one and to get back to another major might be... If I was him,
I'd play four times a year, and that's it.
I would play every major, maybe a tune-up
here and there. I ain't doing no more Buick
invitations. Kevin Clancy,
this is just the beginning. Tiger Woods,
he is the favorite going forward
at every single major. I'm serious.
This is the beginning. He's right.
How many more do you think he's going to win now?
He's going to pass. Jack.
He's three months. So he's at. How many more do you think he's going to win now? I mean, he's going to pass Jack.
So he's at 15,
Jack has 18. Jack keeps doing this bullshit where he keeps being like, yeah, he's going to,
this is, yeah, Tiger's playing.
We see right through that.
Before the tournament even started, fuck him.
Before the tournament started, he was like, oh, Tiger
shot the easiest 64 I've ever seen.
Boy, did he look great out there. He's going to blow
right through this. And then after he kept playing well,
Jack tweeted again
and was like, oh man, he's got no nerves out there.
This is all about nerves, nerves, nerves, nerves.
It's like, bro, we know what you're doing. I see it.
I know the rest of the media doesn't see it. They're like,
this is so great. Champions, sporting champions.
Go fuck yourself.
That's not what it is.
It was some golf Twitter guy.
Graham something or other.
I don't know this this guy tweeted uh that tiger just mentally is better than everyone and that he goes places other athletes don't go it's one of those like like pmt type of phrases
or like what are we talking about you go places you just can't like like the rest of these guys
are are maybe they're not as talented but they're all just as much freaks. We're talking about a smidge of difference that makes all the difference.
But then something like this happens, and it kind of all...
To me, it's like Chicken or the Egg, where it's like, did Francesco Molinari choke because Tiger was on his heels?
I don't know. I think he just choked.
I think that there was a chance he was going to put that ball in the water or in the woods anyway, but
now that Tiger went on to win, you can say that it was
the intimidation factor and the mental
edge. Molnar's
played in some of the best golf in the world these last few
months. You know what makes me really think... He did need the door
to be opened for him, but did he
open that door for himself by being Tiger?
I think he did. You know what makes me think he's definitely
back? We tweeted about it and talked about it on the
podcast where if you go back and watch when they're teeing off on six.
Standing on top of them?
He not only is standing on top of them, he's standing in front of them.
Normally, when another guy's teeing off, you're standing behind him,
whatever, minding your own business.
Look back, when Finau and Molinari are teeing off,
Tiger is four feet in front of the tee box.
We're talking about right-handed golfers who are looking down at the ball,
and so the tops in their perfect're red they just see fucking red and then again on 12 when finau and molinar i think they both yeah they
both went in the water and they're they're sort of on the other side of the creek uh at the drop
area and tires on the green he put it right in the right in the middle of the green tiger is just
walking around on the green and those guys are just waiting to like hey we're trying to hit on
to there so when he it's those he's like oh you're trying to i'm already here sorry i'm up here yeah you're already out of the tournament
like i'm why do you need to go i should just go those little alpha things make me so excited the
thing on the 60 box that's just like disrespectful and especially in a game of etiquette and gentlemen
sportsman like and if it was anybody else i would be furious did they say anything on the broadcast
nobody said the only reason i even noticed was you guys talking about it.
I'm surprised there wasn't a Jim Nance like,
oh my God, Vern, do you see what's happening here?
He's standing in front of the...
Nobody in the world said anything, I don't think.
And certainly nobody in the group was going to say anything
because he's Tiger Woods.
But those tiny little things where he's still in it
for the tiny little edges.
The mental edge, yeah.
I fucking love it.
And that makes me think we're only getting started.
I wish he would just say that stuff.
I wish somebody would bring it up and I wish he would be like,
yeah,
I was trying to get an edge.
Like he's still a little,
the reason I don't like tiger is not,
has nothing to do with golf.
It has to do with all the weird shit,
like off the course.
Like I hate,
I hate the tipping shit.
I hate the Navy seal stuff.
I think he's such a fucking weirdo.
He's a weird,
but,
but all the greats are like, I think a Rob was a fucking weirdo. Dude, he's a weirdo. But all the greats are.
Like, I think A-Rod was a weirdo
when he was, like,
uncomfortable in his own skin.
I think these guys
who are, like,
the greatest of the greats
are just,
you can't be normal.
Have you always felt
that way about him?
Like, when he first came
onto the scene?
I mean, again, I don't know.
No, but I didn't know
that stuff.
I don't think we knew.
Yeah, when I heard
that he, like,
pretends to be a Navy SEAL
in his free time,
I'm like,
you're a fucking loser, dude.
You're a fucking weirdo.
I mean, Zod pretends to be a train conductor in his free time.
Pretends?
Pretends?
You watch your fucking tongue, girl.
I was telling you last night, you were like, do you think Tiger, you were like, what's he doing now?
Right now.
It was like 9 o'clock.
I was like, absolutely not.
He is, like you said, he loves the military, and he's probably put his Call of Duty headset on, and he's just playing online as like John smith do you think that he maybe just like made a trip to perkins and gave himself a little
reward i don't know he was just like you know what i've been keeping this like pervert at bay for as
long as i can and now i'm just gonna go fuck some crazy like some just trash bag slut i don't know
i don't know i put charlie to bed and was like i'm back. I'm going to Denny's. I see those tweets.
I'm like, I don't know.
I think maybe I'm an idealist.
And I think that he's on the straight and narrow.
He's got a pretty steady girlfriend.
He's got two kids.
I actually do think that there was a point where he got so famous.
And like, yeah, I mean, Elon's beautiful and whatever.
That was his trophy wife and all that shit.
But I don't think he knew how to be the star he
was. I'm sure women are
throwing themselves at you. You have unlimited
money. You kind of have a lot of time
as a golfer, right? It's not like you're playing
162 games or you can't
a 16-game season where you can't
do anything but train. Yeah, you have a lot
of free time. You're living in warm
weather places. You're traveling. And it's
a sport where there was no blueprint for him to be like this type of star no so he was
like on on an island by himself and he was like i don't know i'm just speculating that he was like
i'll fuck that girl or i'll try that drug or i'll do whatever they call you like an untouchable god
like you start to believe that absolutely and he was that way for sure like that's the way he was
seen that's the way he was there was nobody like him and social media wasn't as big as it is now so like he could
hide all of that much and that's the crazy that's probably what i think fucked his brain up so much
is when he was viewed as like he was he was kind of bucking the trend in golf a little bit but i
think for the most part he's still like he wasn't like happy gilmore out there like breaking all
the rules he still was like gentleman in a game of golf and very trained and like his father, respectful,
yada, yada.
And then the side of him that we learned was like, you're peeing on chicks.
Like you could not have a bigger difference from like, I'm a disciplined golfer from like
my general dad to I pee on girls.
Yeah.
That is the biggest Jekyll and Hyde that has ever existed in sports. That was very much his
public persona was like family man.
He's great to his kids. He's great to his wife.
And then it all just
fucking blew up. You know what's crazy about that is
we just don't talk about that anymore.
People around Tiger, like in the press conference
obviously at the Masters, nobody's going to bring that up.
But that's just a part of his life that he
just never talks about. It just went, baby.
If you can remind people of what they like about
you and it doesn't, but I, I like, I almost think as far back, they only go back to like
the DUI, like maybe we'll, they'll touch on that.
But the scandal, the first scandal is so far away that it's like, we don't even talk about
it anymore.
The only time you ever really hear about it is like in rap songs.
Every once in a while, they'll be like, remember that one time elan went crazy with a golf club no social media and shit though you know
like that like we have we have like minimal details about you know she hit the golf she
hit the back of the light with the golf club and like i mean tiger woods wife yeah like that that
kind of stuff i think if now if that happened now there would be an interview with elan tmz
would have pictures of this that she'd be all over good morning america yeah remember when she bulldozed his house
yeah that seat no fantastic i don't i don't she like bulldozed his favorite house like to me that's
yeah she was like you like this house you love it i'm gonna take it and i'm gonna bulldoze it yeah
incredible i would love to know what elin's thinking right now i was i was i think and as
he was like walking up to 18 if she was like you know it's still like the mother of my father of my kids like good for him or if it's
like fuck he i feel like he was in such a dark place and like she obviously still has to be
around him like you you'd probably just be like thank god he's not a disaster anymore
probably that's why i would look at it i think it's just like i don't know me i guess it depends
on how much she hates him i think usually there's some sort of
like,
we still have kids together.
I don't want you to be
that guy you were around my kids.
I don't want you to be
a good father. I want them to like you.
So I'm not going to do anything to fuck with that.
Get a few white wines in her.
She's probably like, fuck that guy.
Fuck that guy.
I don't want to rain on the on the parade on the moment but like you know he's hugging
his kids and it's like we i i've never even like seen his kids until now you know what i mean it's
like we're trotting him out there for the master's moment and then i thought it was very funny the
way he like hugged him and hugged her and then like they started to walk together to it's like
the what's it called like butler cabin or whatever and then like he just slowly peeled
away and was like this is my fucking moment like
I was waiting for like put his like face palm
his kid and get the fuck back there.
Daddy will come back later
right now. I'll put a green jacket on
also. There should be a rule
that Tiger never has to take his hat off.
I don't care for indoors. I don't care
for doing a ceremony. You leave your Nike hat
on because that hair,
it looks worse than Joe Pashy getting hit with the flamethrower in home.
Frequent topic of conversation on foreplay where we're with the room is
always split.
Like Riggs and I think he should just pick it.
Like just go full one of the other or just fix it.
Like LeBron fixed his,
although that's sort of receded in recent Carlos Boozer.
But you got to do something like right now you're sitting in a place where
it's just unacceptable. Yeah, well
you're in the middle. It's unacceptable. I don't care if you got
like the craziest surgery and you come out
with full hair again, like that's totally fine
you're rich, do it, or go the other way and
bick it, but you're now stuck in this weird spot where
it just looks horrible. Horrible
and you are, you
like, hair is kind of like the great equalizer
in a lot of ways. 100%. Like, I
just watched this guy pull
off this incredible comeback and win it but he takes his hat off and i'm like loser what a
fucking loser with that head you know it's like it is it's a tough it's not even just like bald
it's like patchy and weird it looks like someone like cut it with scissors i feel like that's more
of a guy thing for you to think losers my first first thought was just sad for him. I was like, I mean, not sad.
See?
How fucked up is that?
That's worse.
That's where a girl's like, aw, this poor bastard.
It's like he just won $2 million and he's on top of the world again.
Oh, yeah, no, I didn't feel that bad for him.
I mean, he's getting a green jacket.
But I didn't look at him like, oh, what a loser.
I more looked at him like, damn, that sucks.
That's the image.
Do something.
Who are the people in his life?
I know SVP has long tried to convince him, like, come on come to this side it's great over here and we're you know it's up for debate how he would
look with a totally shaved head he would look weird but i think it would be like better than
what we're working with right now i think you'd have some et vibes like you'd have a weird like
yeah i think his head's bigger than people realize yeah but now i don't think he can do it now that
he won i mean is that like could that be a superstition put the fucking hat on just leave
the hat on wear the hat why you can't wear Just leave the hat on. You can't wear the hat inside the cat.
Why not?
You can't wear the hat.
In that press conference, you can't wear the hat.
They don't let you wear the hat.
I know they don't let you, but he should be like, fuck.
If Tiger Woods showed up with a hat, they're going to tell him no?
I think they would.
There's only one place in the world.
He was standing in front of people teeing off.
He was like in the way of the ball.
No one said a word to him.
There's only one place in the world where they probably would not let him wear a hat.
And people would hate him so much for that.
Like all the super, super OT.
You know what he should have done?
He should have turned it backwards.
Like cool guy tiger.
But like, what up?
Somebody asked him about Jack.
I was watching like the full press conference afterwards.
Like, what do you think Jack's doing?
He's like, I think he's just chilling.
He's like, you're such a loser, dude.
He is.
He's such a.
You know what?
Somebody asked him, what's your like one sports inspiration?
And he was like, I don't know.
He was like, that's a great question.
And I was like, you know what?
It's kind of like a lazy question, but yeah, I'm actually very interested to hear this.
And he was just like, there's been so many.
I don't know.
Next question.
Just say a couple of them.
Tell me something.
I do want, it is an easy question, but the greats talking about the greats is always
very interesting.
And for him to just not have an answer.
Tiger is great when he has grass
under his feet. If you take grass out from
under him, you don't know what the hell's going to happen.
He's a total freak. He has no idea how to
dress himself. He can't dress. He can't tip.
He plays army. He's like Tobias
Funke. It doesn't make any sense.
Put grass under him and he is terminated.
I guess it's probably part of his upbringing where that's where he is terminated. And it's, I guess it's probably
part of his upbringing
where like,
that's where he's
most comfortable
because he spent
most of his time there.
But yeah,
take,
put him on the street
and it's like,
you know,
I mean,
he's getting arrested.
He's a wild card.
He's a wild card.
But that's the thing,
like you said,
he's a wild card
off the course.
The reason that he's able
to have the comeback
that he did
is because A,
he's the greatest
of all time,
but B,
it's because it's
an individual sport. Like, so he can now erase all the stuff off
the course which i just winning you can't do that if you're on a team right like nobody in the nfl
can come back from what like tiger did so now he's taken everything that we've mentioned and
just been like no i can still win yeah because at some point there's going to be a gm there's
nobody no team's gonna give you a shot right you team's going to give you a shot. It's a wrap for you. That's what I'm saying.
It could have taken him 20 years.
He was going at his pace, waiting for himself to be back and ready,
and he's the only one who's relying upon him who would be like,
enough, we have to go in a different direction.
He could just grind it out until he got there.
And he's got a billion dollars that he can just keep going, keep going,
keep going, and it worked.
I think that the field was very happy,
but I think that right now it's like,
okay, honeymoon's over.
We have to make sure Tiger doesn't just dominate us now.
It would be so good if he did.
If he just rattles off like a bunch.
If he just won the Grand Slam, won all four of them.
Have you done that in a calendar year?
No, he did the Tiger Slam,
which is like different parts of different years.
So he's held all four of them at the same time, just not in the same year.
Got it.
But no one's ever done the four.
Right.
Which would be, I mean, we're getting way ahead of ourselves.
Way ahead.
But he's got the confidence.
When do you think he's going to play again?
Is he going to do some of these bullshit?
I mean, the PGA Championship's in like less than a month.
So he'll probably just play in another major.
Right.
He's not.
I'm trying to think what he would do.
Doesn't he always play in the Buick or some shit?
Well, they all dropped him, right?
Nike was one of the only people that stuck with him.
I feel like he always played with Buick because he was a Buick guy and he had to.
Now it's like, fuck all you guys.
Nike looks so smart.
So smart.
And why would you not?
Same thing with Kaepernick.
It's just like, we can put you guys on the back burner if we need to be.
Because the payoff, if you ever do come through, is fucking incredible.
They had that commercial
ready to go.
Oh, yeah.
They've probably been
sitting on that for,
you know.
I put that in the blog.
I was like,
because at the beginning
it mentions like 43 years old.
I want to know how far
it went back,
like 37 years old,
38 years old.
It's like 43,
that's the one.
We fucking got it.
Finally.
They might have just done
voiceovers the entire thing.
They have it from 35 to 65.
Yes.
One of these days
it might happen.
What did you think of the jacket presentation? They have it from 35 to 65. One of these days it might happen.
What did you think of the jacket presentation?
I thought it was great.
Did you?
Yeah.
I thought it was very underwhelming.
What was underwhelming about it? I don't know.
What did he say?
I didn't think there was any.
I was waiting for like, even, I thought it was weird the way he was like, it fits.
Oh, I love that.
See, no, that's not, that was so weird.
That was such a weird thing to say. I liked that. But you just like it because it's Tiger. Yeah. Yeah. I liked when he put it on. He was like, I love that. See, no, that's not, that was so weird. That was such a weird thing to say. I liked that.
But you just like it because it's Tiger. Yeah.
I liked when he put it on, he was like, yeah, buddy,
I like that. But then he was just like,
it fits. And everyone's like, oh, he's
the GOAT. What? I loved it.
I don't think that in that moment I was looking
for him to say something astronomically
great. Oh, I thought, I mean, if you have
10 years of like, alright, you
abandoned me, you hate me
you doubted me and now i'm here this is your chance to like say it and he was just like
well nick i'm happy to be back but you know what the moment when he actually won and you like you
know now that's like the picture that's going to be everywhere for the rest of time and i saw
somebody on twitter say it and it's true he looked so much younger in that moment when he actually
won that it was like maybe the 11 years of frustration and everything he's gone through just like came
out of his body right there and he's like I'm back bitches like he didn't need to go throw
everybody under the bus it was like I that's his moment all the stress was lifted off his shoulders
and then he just put on the green jacket and it fit he knows everybody who's talked shit about
him knows like or like he knows that they know now. This is a very publicized affair.
So to bring it back to what you were saying about me and being on the list,
I think I was much more adamant when I looked much more correct.
I think the writing has been on the wall for like a year now.
Yeah.
I mean, I remember when he almost won that fake major at the end of last year,
I was like, all right, well, he's probably good enough that he's going to win.
I didn't think he was going to come right out and win the next one and make it the Masters.
But it's not like it really went from zero to 100.
It's been getting better, getting better, getting better.
Won the tour championship, and then it was like, all right, first major, let's see what happens.
So now it actually makes sense.
So that's where I think some of my Tiger doubt over the last 18 months has just been like,
all right, he's probably going to win it.
That's fair.
Now, a couple other people in the office were a lot more steadfast than I was.
Certainly.
We watched the final round with one of them yesterday.
Well, he just happened to be.
He didn't watch half the final round.
Yeah, like three-fourths of it.
As soon as Brooks Koepka missed his butt on 18, a certain person got a phone call.
On Game of Stools last night,
episode out today, I said
that Tiger Woods,
his order of success, his order of accomplishments
goes
three,
winning the Masters. Two,
silencing Game of Thrones
Twitter. He was such
a moment that nobody was even talking about Game of Thrones.
One, making Dave Portnoy tuck his tail and run away.
100%.
Never seen anything like it.
I've never seen a worse fake phone call.
Yeah.
So Dave says, let's just say you weren't watching him.
He just says, all right, I got a phone call.
I got to leave.
Riggs was like, all right, cool.
See ya.
And Trent's the one who's like, look in both ways.
Like, wait, what?
You got to go? And then people put one who's like, look in both ways. Like, wait, wait, what? You gotta go?
And then people put it together that it was a fake phone
call. I heard that and I was ready to
just say fake phone call. Then
I watched it and I realized just how fake
it was. It was awful. He doesn't look at his
phone. He doesn't swipe or
push a button. He literally just goes from pocket
to ear and says, what?
And then goes, okay.
And then puts it down without pushing any buttons either
and gets up and walks out.
Your reaction was priceless. I told
you this last night because you realized what
happened so quickly because he did the phone signal
with his hand. He's like, no, I got a
phone call. You got a fake phone call?
By the way, Dave, everyone in your life is here
today. You're standing in front of all your
friends. No one's calling you. No one.
There's nobody left. And he gets that look on his face where you call him and he's like yeah i got i got a call and
honestly to bring a full circle before we hit break yesterday was one of the greatest internet
days ever and and dave being doing what i think is one of the greatest internet moves of all time
is so fitting because yes there was a fake phone call yeah there was but yes he can he can argue that
it wasn't fake there's not like a literal smoking gun right can we pull phone records because i
swear to god i'll have somebody do it hire a pi i mean i know that it's fake because right but
watch but you know what i mean he can just be like like if if he stayed there and tiger wins and you guys dunk on him there is irrefutable
proof of you guys clowning dave portnoy that now will never exist and there's a new thing to make
fun of and it's a fake phone call but he's just gonna deny it and he'll never there will never
be direct trent riggs and frankie satisfaction over dave that's why he's the greatest weasel
of all time it's true that's why he's the greatest blogger of all time. It's true. I mean, it was fun
braiding him all the way into the elevator.
Really one of the highlights. Sweeping him away.
Really one of the highlights of my career
here at Barstool Sports. But you're right.
That was fun and it was funny, but we didn't get
the like, oh, he makes out in your
face. Like what he does to
Big Cat and that famous picture where he looks
like the devil when he's like making a video
laughing at me because of Conor Gillespie.
There's no moment in...
I would have this vision of
you and Riggs on either side
of his face laughing and Frankie's in front
of him pointing and he's just swallowed up
by foreplay. He excused himself
from that infamy.
He knows what he's doing.
He's the heel. Bob Fox
likened it to when a heel wrestler has the belt
and he disqualifies himself, so he loses the match,
but he retains the belt because you can't, you know?
It's like, I'm just taking my ball and going home
because this is not working out for me.
Greatest of all time.
What a moment.
Let's hit a break.
When we come back, we'll get into the other half of this equation,
the Game of Thrones final premiere, Season 8, Episode 1.
A lot to get into on CCK.
