Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, KFC Radio listeners, you can find every episode of KFC Radio on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. We're back. There was a quick pause in the music there. I think Zah thought, like, we lost the whole feed or something. His face was priceless. What the fuck just happened? I completely forgot that I use my computer for music, so I try to go use it. I try to go open another page with the... It all froze?
Starting point is 00:00:24 Yeah. It all froze. You're good, man. We got Kirk Minahan on the line here now. What's up, Kirk? How we doing? What's up, Kevin? How you doing? I'm good. I'm flying solo today. All of my other co-hosts bounced and I didn't even realize it. Did you often do any solo work or were you always with a partner?
Starting point is 00:00:41 I did some when I started on the weekends like 10 years ago. Some people can do it and I was always terrible at that you know that pause that they do when they're talking and they sort of do like you know and you would do like and for the Mets the question is what will they do about the rotation like you know in my in my pauses would sometimes be like 15 in the program to be like you just paused for like 15 seconds. Like, people are in their cars, you know.
Starting point is 00:01:07 Yeah, that's right. They think that, you think that like the feed dropped. Yeah, it's like you've lost the channel or something. But if you think about like, so obviously when you were Jared or Fyde or Bird or Casey, you're having a conversation. When you're by yourself, like it's actually like technically insanity.
Starting point is 00:01:24 Yes, we're just rambling. Because you're. Yes, we're just rambling. You're just rambling to yourself. I would always use these fill-in weekend producers and essentially make them my co-hosts. These guys were never talked at all. They were like, I don't know. One way of answering, I was terrible. Awful terrible. Absolutely terrible.
Starting point is 00:01:39 I feel like that's also why people like Francesa and I guess Cowherd and the guys who do it have the like arrogance persona because it's like, they are just, it's just a one man opinion. There's never anybody to check them. There's never one, anyone to prove them wrong.
Starting point is 00:01:53 It's just like, I'm going to say whatever I want, even if it's wrong, it doesn't fucking matter. Cause I'm the only one here. Yeah. There's a skill. And I guess like,
Starting point is 00:01:59 I've been on my favorite talk show host, but like even the guy like Rome, well, much used for like, just kind of does it, I guess. Right. And just rambles on and on. It is. Yeah. I don't know if
Starting point is 00:02:07 it's the best skill, but it's a skill. That's for certain. I think it's going to be, it's going to be kind of lonely too. Like, are you, you feel lonely in there? Are you okay? Are you enjoying it? But you, would you like to do it like once every two weeks? I was thinking that I do think, um, because I, I do take, I'm a, I'm a more of a radio nerd and I do take it a little more seriously than I think some of the other hosts here. I'd like to challenge myself and try to do it in a way that's not just the ramblings of a crazy person. I'd like to see if I could do an engaging show solo. So maybe every now and then. I'm using my man Zah here, like you said, as my co-host for today.
Starting point is 00:02:40 But overall, I think it's, you know, better to, to converse and conversate. But so that's why I wanted to have you on because, uh, we got, we got some more Minahan drama to talk about. We, we got another, another case on our hands here. We do, we do, we do, you know, before we get to that, though, like if you were to ask you what I was doing when you called and checked in, this is so pretentious. I'm almost embarrassed to say this, I was actually working on my novel. Oh! Yes, yeah. Is it the Kirk Minahan story? No, no, no, no, it's something kind of different,
Starting point is 00:03:13 but I was actually sort of outlining and working on a character biography, and I'm like, what a fucking, if anybody walked in and be like, I can't think of a more humiliating thing than somebody walking in and catching me doing that, honestly. Can you give me a tease or a taste of what we're doing here? What is the outline of the personality? It's set in the early 80s music scene. So you're going full departure from everything here. I'll even say this.
Starting point is 00:03:42 I will not tell you this. I actually have a pen name, too. have a fucking i know it's now that is the most pretentious thing i've ever heard because you have to sit around and think of something that's creative but cool but no one's gonna know all this bullshit that matters to you and no one else gives a fuck nobody no this book will never be seen first of all never be finished no one will ever read it and i spent i'm gonna say in total in the last month 10 hours think about this pen name like way more than the actual book itself like i love it it's just it's no it's no it's it's this will be this book will blow up once you're dead that's how these things work you're gonna write a shitty book that nobody
Starting point is 00:04:19 cares and as soon as you're dead right then everyone will buy it. Kirk Minahan, the novelist. Unbelievable. The latest drama. You catch me up to speed because I know very little about the other dude who's at the center of this, although I do know he seems like kind of an asshole, I guess. I know you've had some talks with Dave. I know that you tweeted last night my days at Barstool are basically
Starting point is 00:04:41 over, so I feel like, I don't know if that's changed in the last 12, 18 hours, whatever do you still think you're going to be here the whole nine, fill us in on the latest minute show, minute fan drama well I don't know, so I'm actually reached out to you because you know Dave way, way more than I do
Starting point is 00:04:57 so this happened with this guy Albright who hates Barstool, whatever and made a bunch of claims in the past you know that he's, you know, he did this, he did that in the military. He did serve in the military. He claimed he had three different tours. He served in Afghanistan.
Starting point is 00:05:12 He had a whole bunch of other things. He said he played college football at the University of Arkansas. I know they could prove that. He said that his dad played in the PGA Tour. He couldn't prove that. He was a boxing champion in the Army. That couldn't be proven. Harvard Law School couldn't be proven.
Starting point is 00:05:24 So our guys started digging. Well, our guys started digging and I have people, you know, who do this and they started digging in and thought that some things were inconsistent. My producer, Steve Robinson, uh, started digging as well. And, uh, without making the public, we didn't do that. He sent Albright a bunch of questions to see if it was, you know, is this up to speed? Uh, Albright flipped out. He's, he is crazy. I mean, he fucking hates out. He is crazy.
Starting point is 00:05:45 I mean, he fucking hates us. He hates Boston, whatever. Posted those first couple of questions on Twitter, and then it was off to the races. And then, you know, again, Steve, I thought, like, to his credit, was actually about as cautious as you could be. Did not publish it, put it in draft on the blogs, did not publish it, sent it over to Mikey and the K-Marco and all that stuff, and we were just waiting. In fact, we were waiting for this guy to give Marco and all that stuff. And we were just waiting. In fact, we were waiting for this guy to give his answers.
Starting point is 00:06:07 We weren't going to talk about it. And if this guy said, Hey, it checks out. We would have said, okay, it checks out. Now, wait, wait, that's my question. When, when he saves a draft, what is the, what's the goal here? Just like Ben Albright or whatever his name is, is an asshole. Is it just like we're exposing a fraud? Well, here's the thing, Kevin. So he, you know you know called he questioned barcelo's character questioned their moral okay we'd go at people on we go people on people at twitter and say oh you think i'm focused other people made these claims you think i'm full go check it out go do it find out so they did that
Starting point is 00:06:39 okay so he kind of issued this challenge in a way maybe not directly but indirectly and they went and did it okay yeah so they went and we again we didn't do anything we're waiting and and uh so he comes out and uh chaps is all pissed off about it uh toward us towards steve and toward the show and poor noise texting me being like what the fuck's going on with robinson so i call poor no we have the conversation he's like i want to fire this guy and i'm like like, well, I think that's a mistake. I think, you know, and he said, this is worse than the Francis situation. Um, and I said, well, I said, I don't agree, Francis. And by the way, I don't think Francis should have been fired. Right. I said, then on my show, I had him on. So I know you shouldn't fire, but we'll, we'll play that game out. The argument was that Francis did this thing about this girl
Starting point is 00:07:19 when she, the day she died, dah, dah, dah. I said, this is, this is the opposite of that. Like, you know, Francis posted. We did just the opposite. We waited. We're waiting for a comment from him. We didn't post anything. You're mad. You want to fire Steve over something
Starting point is 00:07:31 that technically doesn't exist because it hasn't been made public. His argument was when you get into battle with a guy like that, he's going to make everything public. It's already public. So he was pissed. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:07:42 That was at three o'clock yesterday. I haven't heard from him since. I know he's got stuff going on. And your episode went up, right? It's up. Yeah. Talked about the whole thing. Yeah. So, I mean, I don't, I asked you, like, I don't know if this is the kind of thing where Dave is like pissed off and is going to freak out tomorrow and fire Steve. And I don't know if it's the kind of thing where it happened.
Starting point is 00:08:01 And after a couple hours, he's like, Oh shit, maybe, you know, he lied about being at the marathon bombings, and he went after our show, so we looked it up. And my thing is, as I said today in the podcast, like, I don't think Dave was aware of that when I came in. And I don't think I was quite aware that Dave wasn't going to be into that aspect of it when I came in. So I think we both didn't really know the situation. But, like, I don't think, like, as much as, you know, I'm glad that Dave brought me in. I'm enjoying the situation but like i don't think like as much as you know i'm glad that dave brought me in i'm enjoying it like i don't think dave even really knew what i did no okay you have a following bring him in like which yes which is okay but
Starting point is 00:08:32 like i i think and i think you know i think if that's something that that is not cool with him like that's something that we can discuss and further on down the line and see where it's at but i just i was surprised that the reaction to something that didn't actually happen yet yeah but i but i guess that's like it did though as soon as that guy tweeted it it did now correct and now in a way you almost gave him it's a tough spot and this is probably why we don't do much of it because in the one sense you want to do the proper channels you want to like do it the right way but by sending that email and then giving him the ammo he now controls how this story goes out there and it's just like well and then again it goes back to like for what it's like you're a very entertaining dude
Starting point is 00:09:13 and i think you're very compelling and like that's why people want to listen to you whether this who fucking cares about this guy yeah but yes i guess but that's sort of not the way we've done in the past but i mean that's what dave said that's what Jeff said. That's right. I mean, so from your, from your end, I get it, but I also get like, it's not a traditional journalistic place. So the idea that, Hey, we have to reach out to this guy first and check in. Well, he's immediately going to, you know, he's immediately going to tweet this out and send it totally. Your point is it doesn't, as I said, in the podcast, truth doesn't,
Starting point is 00:09:39 at that point, truth doesn't even matter. Right. Like everything perception becomes reality. Yep. Yeah. But I'd also say, you know, like we also used to never really talk military issues at all and then zbt comes along and that's what they do and on like a lighter note we were never a golf company until foreplay came along so like if the new side of this and you're going to do like the investigative side i don't see why that should necessarily be a problem i mean maybe a problem in the sense that like the early going is going to be fucked up because people are not going to take it serious or they're going to try to spin it.
Starting point is 00:10:08 But if that's what you want to do, I just also think that then Dave kind of has the right to be like, well, that is not what we want to do. Sure. Yeah. I said to him yesterday, I'm like, of course, this is your place. If you guys say, hey, this isn't what we do, then we can have a talk about that.
Starting point is 00:10:23 But I think it's interesting. So I came in and I was like i'm gonna have a good time i like a lot of people there i am surprised a couple months in and i keep walking through these minefields but yet i'm always surprised this happens like i don't feel like i don't like you know you got willie cologne hates me you get this thing you get the thing with the activist merch in a couple weeks ago we're literally just trying to do a fucking show like i yeah well this is how i'm getting as always i'm in these situations i'm like i don't i literally just trying to do a fucking show. It confuses how I'm getting. As always, I'm in these situations, and I'm like, I'm just trying to do my fucking show, keep my head down, go home, and do it again the next day. I don't quite get it.
Starting point is 00:10:52 Well, I think I run into that on a smaller scale. I think that actually comes from a genuineness. It's almost counterintuitive, because I think people probably assume, uh, Kirkman hand just likes to stir the pot and he just likes to cause trouble wherever he goes. And he's doing it on purpose. When in reality, it's like, you actually just keep it very real. You'd say your takes, you give your opinions. And I think it's off putting to some people. And it looks like you're finding drama all the time, but that's only because a lot of people out there aren't very real. A lot of people avoid the drama. They actively, you know, bite their tongue. They avoid things that might be controversial where you're just willing to let it
Starting point is 00:11:27 fly. It doesn't mean you seek it out. It doesn't mean you're trying to do it. It's just, I think anybody who is as real as you are is going to always stumble into it because nobody else does it that way. Well, I also say like, so what I don't get, and I said this to Dave yesterday, so you threatened to fire my producer, Steve Robinson. Like, and I didn't, I didn't obviously agree with that. I said, why can't it just be that you go on your show the next time you're on and kick the shit out of Steve and me, if you want, if you disagree with us, and let chaps do that as well on his block? Why does it have to be, why can't they just say, this is where they're at,
Starting point is 00:11:56 and we all have a legitimate, genuine disagreement? That's the part that I missed in the whole thing. I don't know why that can't be what it is. Yeah, well, I think with the Francisis situation there was no well that's no there was no win right so it was like you you're just bringing us bad publicity whereas i think right now there's just a difference in opinion of like you think what you're doing is bringing value in the sense that you'd have this piece exposing this guy as a fraud and dave is just like i don't care about that and i don't value that but there is there there's, that's just a difference of opinion, not necessarily a
Starting point is 00:12:29 black and white. You shouldn't have done this because it's fucking terrible type of thing. Right. And I mean, at the end of the day, I'm just a novelist, you know, I'm not, I'm just trying, my next one's going to be set in the 12th century Russia. I mean, I'm just trying to, I'm just trying to tell my stories. That's all. Do you, I think we actually, I think Chaps can call in on Sirius. Do you want to talk to Chaps right now? Is he on right now?
Starting point is 00:12:51 I think he's on now. He's not on the phone. He's in through the Sirius piping. Chaps, do you have any? Yeah, we talked yesterday. If he wants to talk, sure. I get no. Chaps, are you there?
Starting point is 00:13:00 Can you guys hear me? Yeah, what's up, man? Hey, so I just wanted to hop on the line real quick. I heard what you were saying. I want to kind of like echo what Kevin is saying. I don't think that there's anything inherently bad with saying, did you serve or did you do this thing? The thing about it that really pissed me off was that, one, it's the way that that is perceived for Barstool and what ZBT has done. Whenever you're under the Barstool umbrella and you ask that, you have to know that somebody like Ben Albright, not necessarily even Ben, but anybody who doesn't like us, is going to take that screenshot. And that becomes the perception of what happens to a majority of folks.
Starting point is 00:13:40 Because people aren't going to say, like yesterday when we talked, Kirk, you were like, let me explain the full story. That's not the way the Internet works. The Internet doesn't go for the full story. They see what they see in the snapshot at first, and then that's how people react from it. And that causes great damage to the brand that I've built in ZBT. Well, yeah, and I understand that. As I said to you yesterday, I understand that. But then what you're basically saying is whether the truth is in your mind then is irrelevant.
Starting point is 00:14:08 And I get that, and I understand that, and I said that to you yesterday. But should I or Kevin or anybody be thinking, what is the ZeroBlog30 brand going to think about something if we personally think something is compelling and interesting? I'm asking that legitimately. Should we all be thinking like that? I think that there's certain areas where you have to be mindful about the cause, the brand of how it caused the brand.
Starting point is 00:14:33 Are you saying like the military there? I do think that the fact that we're talking military, we're talking troops, we're talking like I said, if it was just like I played football in college and we could prove that wrong, I don't think anybody cares. I think why we're walking on eggshells and a little nervous here is because you're calling out a veteran, right? I mean let's call it what it is.
Starting point is 00:14:52 Is that where it comes in, Chaps? Yeah, and it's very different. Like if you stepped on somebody's NFL toes, like Jerry Thornton is not going to get pissed off about it because it's the NFL. At the end of the day, it's a game. This isn't a game that we're talking about whenever you're going even and the perception of when you're asking those questions the implied end of the question is that these aren't these things aren't true and anybody who saw the screenshot of the email knows that like okay but what about this application what if what if these guys are right what if this dude like is lying about some of the service I think if he's lying about his service like that's not something that needs to come up through
Starting point is 00:15:26 Barstool. That's not what we do. I don't understand. Where does that get you? So at the end of the day, if the Kirkman Show uncovers that Ben Albright lied about all of his deployments, at the end of the day, who fucking cares? Well, I mean, I agree that that's not what we do here, but I think there
Starting point is 00:15:41 might be people who care if there are people lying about military service. Right. And I said that to Chaps yesterday. I disagree with that. Obviously, he disagrees. I think people care about that stuff, but I also get where he's coming from. Like I said to him yesterday, I totally get his perspective on it, which is different than mine.
Starting point is 00:15:55 I think when it's somebody who has professionally trolled Barstool for years, has questioned their character, their morality, and by the way, on social media, has taunted people and said, check out my record, check out my past. Well, I mean, I, to me, I don't know. I feel like that's in play, but again, I'm coming from a different perspective. Yeah. I mean, I, I see both sides of like, I don't think this is what we do at Barstool, but I do think if you're ever going to, I would say that maybe someone who has rallied against us, called us into question and also has made, uh, like their service a very public issue, I think it's a little more fair game. I think if you just did this to a random veteran,
Starting point is 00:16:29 you'd be a total asshole. Again, I just don't know if that's what we do. But like I said, we are always constantly evolving. So if the Kirk Manahan show is maybe going to be more of an investigative type of reporting, I think maybe, like going to, like I said, it's gonna be a rough go for you because it's not, you know, you're, you're blazing that trail. But, uh, I think there is a validity to it as long as you do it the right way. I think even in this case, though, the right way is going to be exposed and spun into something that makes us look like assholes. And the overall problem that I have, and we talked about this on zero block 30 on the first segment that's going to come out tomorrow. But the overall problem that I have is that it's this basic principle that when one person at Barstool speaks, that everybody assumes that we all feel the same way. And I think that whenever that happens in the military realm, like the person
Starting point is 00:17:15 that that affects or the brand that affects the most is by far zero block. Right. But, but I think what we're doing right now is how that should be taken care of. Cause we don't all speak for each other. I know that a lot of things – But people who are tied into the barstool world are going to hear that. But people who aren't, it's the snapshot of the appearance of what it is, and people could see zero-block 30s associated with barstool. They're going to assume that if it's a military issue, it was us that did it. No, that's – I mean, probably that's true because it clearly came from us, and I think that's their perception issue. I mean,
Starting point is 00:17:47 if they think everybody thinks the same exact at Barstow, first of all, I don't know if that's true or not. And secondly, things happen like yesterday. You went on social media pretty early and kind of got it going. You were angry. You went at our show like that, and we're doing this right now. That's all perfectly fine to me. It shows there's disagreement, but there can also be conversations
Starting point is 00:18:04 about it, right? I think this is the best thing in the world for content i think you chaps should be able to be like fuck them in a hand show and you should be able to say like i want i don't i don't mind that yeah i think this is actually i don't mind that at all great in a way like as long as you know nobody ends up i want to say something else too about the whole albright thing because people are saying that i'm like an albright defender i don't give a fuck about that dude in reality like i like in who – it has nothing to do with that. It's the perception of the military and how we cover the military at Barstool that's important to me. That's the only thing – that's the only issue I have is the perception about ZBT that we would support that
Starting point is 00:18:37 and like asking a veteran for – or having the tinge of saying that what you're saying about your service isn't true. That's not who we are as like a barstool podcast. All right. I mean, I think it all makes sense. I think everybody's kind of hit their points. We got to hit the break anyway. So chaps, appreciate you dialing in. Kirk, go back to your 1980s synthesizer music novelist.
Starting point is 00:18:58 Going back in. And we'll see where this whole Albright thing falls in a couple days. But overall, I think good discourse. So call us up after the break if you want to weigh in on your opinions on ZVT and Minahan and the latest. I think it's all very interesting stuff. I think if everybody can just be a little more kind of mature about it and realize not everyone's opinions are the same just because you work for the same company. There is something to be said. There's right ways to do it, wrong ways to do it.

Starting point is 00:21:38 talk. I would have loved to have dabbled. Where do you fall? Is it an afterlife? Nothing happens. Do you think you have a consciousness though or is it just gone? For a little bit. I think when you die, when your heart stops, you're still there a little bit, and then it just kind of fades, and then you're gone. You ever read or watch- It's like going to sleep.
Starting point is 00:21:59 You go to sleep. You don't know that you're asleep when you're asleep. When you're not dreaming, you just go to sleep, and that's it. Well, that's what I hope. A lot of people say it's like before you were born, you're not dreaming like you just go to sleep and like that's it well that's what i hope a lot of people say you know it's like when you are before you were born you don't know what was going on you're just like in blackness but there's a movie there's a book uh dan brown book the same guy who did da vinci code and um angels and demons and it was like a one of those you know scientific religion type books where he basically was like on a quest to
Starting point is 00:22:21 find like the human soul and i guess the idea was uh they like put like a a dying person in a room like strapped to all these things testing it and when it died it was like like his body weight changed by like a tenth of a whatever and they were like that was like the soul leaving his body it was like the idea was like they physically proved don't you like that there was a soul yeah i think it's shit yourself when you die? Yeah, I think it's pretty, I don't think it was as, it was as like neat and cool as it was in this book.
Starting point is 00:22:50 But the idea was that they like could scientifically prove that there was something in your body that when you die, like it leaves and it like actually proved the existence of.
Starting point is 00:22:58 I feel like your soul doesn't weigh anything. Yeah, I feel like if you did have a soul, it doesn't, it doesn't like. Yeah, I feel like a soul isn't something you can put on a scale.
Starting point is 00:23:04 Imagine you hop on the scale and you're like, ah, I'm having a bad soul day. Yeah. And some rolls in the soul. It's not that I ate McDonald's tonight and said my soul is bloated. My soul had a real bad weekend. But yeah, we got chicken nuggets going straight to my soul. Sucks. They do say like chicken soup is good for the soul.
Starting point is 00:23:22 What's that supposed to mean? Maybe chicken soup. Maybe the soul literally needs the chicken and the noodles I believe in souls but I don't think chicken noodle soup has anything to do with it Frankie was near tears Frankie's a bitch
Starting point is 00:23:36 I'm over it, everyone dies it's not like something where only Frankie has to go through it and it's like oh my god poor Frankie everyone is going to die I can get behind the idea of being scared of how you're going to die like that I don't like that
Starting point is 00:23:52 I'm afraid to die too though I don't want to die as much as I joke around about killing yourself and how much life sucks there's a difference in wanting to die and not being scared to die does that make sense yeah i don't want to die but i definitely i don't want to die but i'm not scared of it but i'm scared of how it happens
Starting point is 00:24:13 i don't like that it's like that hypothetical that we've done like would you rather know when yeah or how a thousand percent we just talked about it on ksu radio they're coming out with a blood test that can find out when you're gonna die how do they know that uh it just takes into account like a ton of factors and it can say it says it can it can guess within uh 80 accuracy it can guess within five to ten years but that's kind of like no fucking kidding um you say you're gonna die at 75 it could be 70 it could be 80 it's like yeah that's when most people end up dying 80 percent of people this fact this percentage but i would assume more people die from like accidents or whatever than just like natural causes and there's no way your blood test knows that right but i guess it's assuming yeah you don't get hit by a bus it's just like your health factor like you're gonna
Starting point is 00:24:58 be around for you know 70 years based on your this level and that level and all that shit. What if they could blood test you to see if you're a murderer or not? What? Like, you know, it's like, they're saying they can blood test you. That's what I'm saying. Like,
Starting point is 00:25:13 like, like, like if you, like there's a blood test, it can now tell us how long we're going to live. More like a blood test to prove you're like a psychopath. No. Is there a blood test they can give to like kids?
Starting point is 00:25:21 Like this guy is going to be a murderer. We got to figure this out. But I mean like you, you might not know. I think it's more like you can prove if there's like a, a, like a psychopath gene or something like that. You don't know whether it's going to manifest itself into murder.
Starting point is 00:25:33 Well, yeah, but I mean, yeah, that would be cool. If we could get them all in one place, if we could get a test that says like you're off and it might manifest itself in murder. It might manifest itself in like,
Starting point is 00:25:43 I don't know. I don't know. You can test for it, but there's definitely a gene. Like when you study the brain of a serial killer compared to like a normal person's brain, there's definitely different brain activity going on. Gotta be. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:54 I don't know that it's a gene. We need to figure that out. We need to figure out how not to have hangovers. Like science, what are we doing here? No, no, no, no, no. Disagree. Science, what are we doing here? Totally disagree.
Starting point is 00:26:02 Why? The hangover is a necessary evil that keeps the world spinning. If there was no hangover, within a weekend, we would devolve into anarchy. You would never stop drinking. You would be drunk all the time. You would never stop drinking. You would never go to work. You would never do anything but party and drink. You would
Starting point is 00:26:18 keep doing it well past the ages you're supposed to do it. Everyone slows down with drinking and has kids and shit like that because it's like, I can't do this anymore. If you didn't have a hangover humanity would cease to exist nobody would even get pregnant that sounds fine to me no one would get pregnant you would i'm here you or you would be pregnant it would be like fetal alcohol syndrome all over the place you would be you wouldn't you wouldn't you need the hangover the hangover is the only thing that keeps you in check is the hangover.
Starting point is 00:26:48 My point is that science is now claiming that they can figure out how long you're going to live by taking your blood, but they can't figure out how to get rid of a hangover the next day. They can't figure out how to get rid of the fucking sniffles. Not that I have them right now, but preemptively I'm upset about my first fucking cold of the winter because the fall is coming
Starting point is 00:27:03 and how as a society have we not figured out? Because it's a virus, dude. You can't fix viruses. Every virus is different. They do it. They can fix it. But this is like a new version. They just keep...
Starting point is 00:27:15 They keep growing. There's got to be a way. There's no way. That was gross. Mutating? Didn't like that. Mutant. No, the word itself, again, it's the context of how these words are used.
Starting point is 00:27:26 Viruses mutating? Not great. No, I mean, that's why there's like super gonorrhea and shit like that. It keeps mutating and it's like you can't fix these things. Like all this money that we spend on research for different diseases, there's got to be a motherfucker out there trying to cure colds. They can't. It's not worth the money. You can't do it.
Starting point is 00:27:43 Because it's not deadly. It's very inconvenient. It is. It affects all of us. They're definitely figuring out how to get rid of colds. Just like they're trying to figure out how to get rid of different types of cancer. I just don't think you can stop that stuff. And you can't stop serial killers.
Starting point is 00:27:57 And you can't stop hangovers. We put a fucking man on the moon. That's different. Put a fucking man on the moon. Okay, that's different. Put a fucking man on the moon? You can't get rid of my goddamn sniffles? If you're able to fake a moon landing and convince the entire planet that happened, you have the resources to fix the common cold. You think that they're putting more research into
Starting point is 00:28:15 figuring out CTE than the common cold? Yes. I think so too. Which is crazy. Which is bullshit. Guess what? When you smash your brain up, it doesn't go well. Study over. Sniffles affects all of us. Someone do something.
Starting point is 00:28:29 Justice for sniffles. CTE is a big thing, obviously. It's going to be funny. Getting taken down by CTE. When you go a million years into the future and everyone is like sci-fi futuristic shit, right? And everything is probably
Starting point is 00:28:44 electronic and mental and you you got computers in your brains and your entertainment is all like programmed into your head and all that shit. And they're going to look back in the record books. They're going to be like, there was this period of time where everybody was really worried about brains and these guys just kept smashing their heads together. Yeah. Like, why didn't they just stop doing that? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:02 Because football's awesome. And they're going to be like, these fuckers. Yeah, they were all. They were killing themselves. They were a billion dollar industry where guys went into cages and punched each other in the head. To run around. Yeah. Like, why didn't they just stop doing that? Yeah. Because football's awesome. And they're going to be like, these fuck, they were all billion dollar industry. Guys went into cages and punched each other. Run around. Yeah. It's like shit like that is going to be crazy. It's the catch 22 though,
Starting point is 00:29:12 because it's like, yeah, obviously that's all a problem. Whether it's boxing, UFC, obviously football, but I don't want to see any of that go away. No,
Starting point is 00:29:21 but, but, but when, when, when, when it does go away, they're talking about people like not letting their kids like in like 20 or 30 years like the amount of kids playing football is gonna be a
Starting point is 00:29:29 problem i wouldn't let my kids play football i'd see i wouldn't want to let them but i also would want to let them because i want to be a football mom if i'm ever a mom see i wasn't into football so i have no problem not being in football culture so i don't want my kids smashing his head in i mean i i probably won't be like no but i definitely won't like encourage it and if you i probably got a little cte from what uh i i took a comebacker off the fucking head yeah that was tough yeah even if you get a concussion at any point you probably have a little bit right yeah you got a little i mean you know i if you used to fucking like dick around like backyard wrestling you probably got a concussion there you know there's a lot of cte going on i actually uh funny you mentioned that we were backyard If you used to fucking dick around in backyard wrestling, you probably got a concussion here or there.
Starting point is 00:30:05 Oh, yeah. There's a lot of CT going on. I actually, it's funny you mention that. We were backyard wrestling, and I fell. It was probably about this high from this desk to the ground, like flat back. Three feet? Yeah, flat back, and hit the back of my head off the concrete. And how bad did the wind get knocked out of you, too?
Starting point is 00:30:21 It wasn't the wind. Just straight skull. Yeah, just straight skull. I was like, how long was I out for? And they were like 60 seconds. Yeah. I knocked myself out in a haunted house. I think I've told that story before. No, would you run into a wall?
Starting point is 00:30:34 Yeah, like it was a really slow... What a dumb idiot. It was really stupid. I was in seventh grade. It was a really slow strobe light. So I thought that the guy with the chainsaw was on a machine because it was so slow. Every time you'd see him, it was like two feet in front of him or whatever so i was trying to outrun the machine coming towards me it was not a machine it was a human smack right into the wall knocked myself out cold how old were you i was 13 seventh grade and i was one of my it
Starting point is 00:30:58 was my first day with my seventh grade boyfriend oh that was not great yeah that's gotta be the worst first date ever well i don't remember any of it. I woke up in the backstage area where they do all the makeup and stuff. And they called my dad. And my parents were sitting in the car outside waiting for us to get through. And my boyfriend, and I put that in air quotes, and my friends that also had their boyfriends and girlfriends, they had made it all the way through and couldn't figure out where I was.
Starting point is 00:31:21 Because they had also ran. Terrible. It was terrible. Ellen gave me CTE one time. Oh boy. That sounds like child abuse. I was like three years old and she was vacuuming and I would just never leave her the fuck alone. Like I was like always like upper ass. And I like went to like, go like hug her leg and she was vacuuming. And when she came back at the vacuum, like right in the forehead, have you accidentally injured your kids yet? Oh, I feel like every parent has that story. I have a scar on the bottom of my chin because my dad
Starting point is 00:31:48 injured me on a seesaw. Every parent has it. I don't think I've had it yet. No, I mean, I don't... I feel like if I ever have kids, I'm going to accidentally injure them all the time. Keegan fell off the couch once, smashed his head right on the edge of the coffee table, but that wasn't my fault.
Starting point is 00:32:05 It was on my watch. I guess you could say it was my fault. Well, I mean, my dad didn't purposely hit you with a seesaw. It wasn't like I physically was doing anything at the moment. Did they ever roll off the changing table or anything as kids? I feel like that's a normal thing that happens, right? Definitely. It didn't really happen to me.
Starting point is 00:32:22 They've fallen off the couch a couple times. One time, I was holding Shay and I was reaching for my phone or something. I got in so much trouble that time. She fell off my lap so she felt like 12 inches onto the ground. But she was like a baby. And it was like, because you're on Twitter.
Starting point is 00:32:38 Were you holding the baby like Dave was holding that baby? It's one of the best pictures I've ever seen. You would have thought someone was like... ever see the movie the rock with nick cage no you ever see it the green the green balls of like chemical war weapons it was like it was like these uh like glass balls filled with like sarin gas that like if they break and everyone was holding them so like carefully that was david that baby he was just like this thing is like radioactive like it's nuclear.
Starting point is 00:33:05 Like it's going to explode. Did you watch the video? No. So the, she hands him the baby outside of the car and he's like, you, you want me to hold this? And she's like,
Starting point is 00:33:14 yeah, can I take a picture? And then she realized this thing, by the way, it's a weird movie. Very weird. She wants, Oh,
Starting point is 00:33:18 it gets weirder. She then wants him to go in front of the restaurant sign. So then he has to walk with the baby and he's just like holding and the baby's face is so epic it's like what the fuck am i doing it's like you can smell the fear yeah they take the picture and then like 20 minutes later she comes back with a printed picture so he could autograph it for the baby wow that's super weird but the like if you zoom in on the baby's face and you zoom in on dave's face it's the single most uncomfortable photo i've ever seen it's like dave's like weakness krypton photo I've ever seen. It's like Dave's
Starting point is 00:33:45 weakness kryptonite. I think it's weird to do it with Dave, but I think I would do that if I met I don't know. Insert player or person that I idolize. I also think it's different if it's an actual famous person, like an athlete. To do it for the internet pizza guy
Starting point is 00:34:02 is a little weird, I think. I don't know who I would do that for, go through all that effort., I think. Yeah, I don't know who I would do that for, like go through all that effort. I don't, for your baby? Yeah. I don't know about going and printing. Yeah, no. If it was David Ortiz or something like that. Yeah, the holding the baby sign.
Starting point is 00:34:15 Hold the baby, take the picture, then print it off and have David Ortiz sign it. That'd be cool. Yeah, I don't think I would go through all that trouble. I don't think I would do that. I don't even think I know how to do that. Where do you go get a picture? Walgreens. I think at one point Dave was like,
Starting point is 00:34:27 are you going to take the baby back? She was like, no, you can keep him. And he's just like, as soon as I handed a baby to somebody that was holding my kid like that, I'd be like, all right, just give it back. You're going to drop this fucking thing. You are no part of this.
Starting point is 00:34:38 I am not good with babies. That doesn't surprise me. You're good with the kids, but not the babies. Yes. He's not even that great with kids. Well, I signed a baby. He signed a baby. He's always thinking about the kids, but not the babies. He's not even that great with kids. Well, I signed a baby. He signed a baby. He's always thinking about the rockets.
Starting point is 00:34:47 That's right, Zaha. Let's go. The rockets for the kids. Yeah, rockets for the kids, not for the babies. When do they start the kids' age to you? When they can walk. No, I promise you, you're still uncomfortable with them. No, I showed you the video.
Starting point is 00:35:01 If I handed you a two-year-old, you would not be comfortable holding it. I wouldn't hold it. That's what we're talking about. But I just said that if the child can walk and I don't need to hold it, then... Well, you still have to hold two-year-olds. Two-year-olds are stumbling around. No, you're comfortable at four. Not at a rocket meet and greet, I don't.
Starting point is 00:35:16 The two-year-old that came up to me that just started playing with my beard, it's like, I can deal with that. I don't think that kid was two. I mean, he was pretty tiny I think that your understanding of what a two year old is you're probably talking about a four or five year old no I'll show you the video could this kid talk?
Starting point is 00:35:35 like when Keegan talks it's still like you're making no sense he's kind of babbling and shit like that he could say words though? I think so I didn't ask him for his ID. Okay.
Starting point is 00:35:47 You want to play with my beard? I'm just trying to gauge what age you're comfortable with children. If they can walk, if I don't have to hold you, I'm fine with that.
Starting point is 00:35:55 I really wish I could do more funny shit with my kids. Like I would love to do like a, like a challenge or like a pod father's challenge with my kids.
Starting point is 00:36:04 Like have like you and fights and like, like see who gets to or like a pod father's challenge with my kids and have like you and fights and like like see who who gets to be like the godfather i think fights would be a good uncle or something like that yeah but i get picture fights like taking a baby like throwing them up in the air and catching it's very weird i am like super comfortable very hands-on and very good with my kids very like i can scoop him up. I grab her. I'm holding both of them. I'm grabbing this. I'm changing diapers.
Starting point is 00:36:27 I'm feeding. Those are my kids. Yeah. If I was around another two and a half and four year old, I would still be like, I don't really want to touch you. I don't want to upset you. I don't know what you like, what you don't like.
Starting point is 00:36:40 But my kids, it's very just like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Because you're used to them. My godson has a baby sister. And while obviously i'm very close to that family i'm not near as comfortable with her as i am him because i like helped be around him when he was a baby so you're playing favorites yeah 100 and i feel badly for that but it's like i'm not around her as much because i'm obviously moved away but having the two of them in the same area if it's just me freaks me out but i I'm super close to my godson. Fights is a new godfather. Did you know that?
Starting point is 00:37:07 I did not. Yeah. What? He was very excited about it over the weekend. How does Casey know that and you don't? He and his girlfriend were talking about it over the weekend. I don't know how we started talking about it, but he was very excited. I was like, that's cute. For who? I don't know. I don't know any of his friends having kids. He showed me a baby.
Starting point is 00:37:23 Did you see me and Keegan eating pizza watching the Mets not too long ago? No. See, I feel like the Rocket, you're all this big bad, I'm not going to get married, and I'm going to be a bachelor and all that shit. And then I had this moment with Keegan. It was the beginning of the Nats series when it was like, okay, time to play real teams. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:37:44 And I watched the game with him and ate pizza. And it was like, for sure, a moment. And I'm thinking to myself, you would like, you would actually, can I send this to you, Zach? Can you play like a video off? Yeah. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 00:37:58 So obviously you need the video to really like get the full effect, but it was... You would understand that it's definitely something you would like, I think. Do you think so? I mean, it was cute. It was fun. I literally... This kid is... He is going to be 800 pounds. My kid is a fat
Starting point is 00:38:20 fucking mess. He eats everything in sight. Like, all day long. He just does not stop eating. Are you sure he's not Feidelberg's kid? That's not funny. He, and so like,
Starting point is 00:38:34 I, I go out to the pizza place. I get two slices for myself for dinner and I only ended up having one cause he ate a whole fucking slice of his own. It was his goddamn own. It was Keegan who figured out how to eat Oreos without being instructed. Yes. Correct.
Starting point is 00:38:45 Exactly. He's got fat kid instincts. Like he just knew who figured out how to eat Oreos without being instructed, correct? Yes, exactly. He's got fat kid instincts. He just knew to break them apart. That is life finds a way type shit. You really can't teach that. If you eat a sandwich, he's not going to break the sandwich apart and eat the insides, right? Right.
Starting point is 00:38:58 He just knows to keep that together. He had to have seen you do that. I mean, yes, it's possible. But I don't know. I'll have my oreos when they go to bed plus i'm a big dipper and not really i and these days i don't open it up so i don't know where he learned that maybe they do it on tv does he watch see i don't even know do you watch tv but no one's eating oreos in front of him it was just instinct yeah it was you know my child would be a monster yeah yeah i feel like you're gonna breed you're not gonna have kids you're gonna breathe i'm going to breed you're gonna find yourself
Starting point is 00:39:30 like an olympic soccer player yeah go get one of those field hockey chicks yeah i would probably just get like a wmba player to like offset the height so it's like all right she's six five and that kid i mean your kid might be like 5'9", then. No. Well, she'd be like 6'0", and you'd be, you're like 5'7". I'm 5'10". Oh. 5'10", so. Oh, okay. We had Pat Light on the stream last night, and he's 6'5",
Starting point is 00:39:58 and I said, as my friend, would you give me two inches that you walk around at 6'3 so that I could say at least I'm six feet? He would give me those six inches. Would you give me two inches? You'd be 5'10 then, right? You're 6'1? Sure. No, he's six foot.
Starting point is 00:40:17 I play 6'1, see? I feel like I'm 6'1, so then I'm 6'1. Perception's reality. I play like I're 6'1 They feel like I'm 6'1 So then I'm 6'1 Perception is reality I feel like I wear heels around you And I'm never taller than you So you have to be 6'1
Starting point is 00:40:34 Gotta be 6'1 I'm 6'1 Would you give me an inch? No Why would I do that? Because we're friends What are you going to do for me? What do'11? Why? Why would I do that? Because we're friends. What do I get out of that? What are you going to do for me? What do you want?
Starting point is 00:40:48 Give me a couple inches of your dick. Alright. I'll give you an inch of height if you give me a couple inches off your dick. I'll give you one inch of my dick for an inch of height. No, that's not commensurate. No. Why? If you're like 6'5. One inch of dick makes a world of difference. One inch of height like changes your life. One inch of dick is like
Starting point is 00:41:03 I got a big dick, whatever. Being 6'5 Who of dick is like, I got a big dick, whatever. Being 6'5". Who the hell is like, yeah, I got a big dick, whatever. You're using it every now and then. It's not that. It's like every day of your life, every minute that you are 6 feet tall is different than when you're 5'10". I would say if there's a guy who's 6'4 and taller, that they would be like, okay, I'd give an inch. Because 6'3". He's going to give you two.
Starting point is 00:41:22 I agree. If I was 6'4", I would give you an inch. If I was 6'2", 6'5", I'd give you a couple inches. I was going to give you two. I agree. If I was 6'4", I would give you an inch. If I was 6'2", 6'5", I'd give you a couple inches. I was going to give you two inches. I think 6'2", you wouldn't do it either. 6'3", you're still tall. 6'2", is a great number. 6'2", is a great number.
Starting point is 00:41:34 Fantastic. 6'2", is a great. 6'3", fantastic. 6'3", I almost feel like is like, whoa, you're big. 6'2", is just like, that's, I think 6' six two is the biggest normal height i think six three you're tall that's and like six four six five you're like no i agree with that like then i almost think you get into my buddy who's six five is like he almost doesn't like it because everyone's like oh you're not that good at basketball like you should have made it in sports sort of thing
Starting point is 00:41:59 and he's just like i'm just i just don't fit on planes and beds you know what i mean it almost becomes like there's almost a pressure and a failure associated. If you're not a professional athlete. Right. Or just even like a college athlete. He was just like a normal fucking dude. 6'2", I'd come to myself. 6'2 is a great height.
Starting point is 00:42:17 Yeah. And I feel like once you get past 6'2", like if I'm talking to my girlfriends, like, oh, this dude's 6'3", 6'4", like then it's like, oh, shit. But 6'2 is just like, oh, that's perfect. Yeah. Like once you start getting six four like then it's like oh shit but six two is just like oh that's perfect yep like once you start getting past that then i would say six two is the perfect height yeah i like six i'm but i'm five nine so i like six six three you're getting picky girl i don't know i'm not picky yeah i'm just saying if i had to ideally yeah six three i'm not picky but if i had to if i was allowed if i was allowed to pick someone's height i would probably pick pick 6'3 or 6'4. What height would you pick for a girl?
Starting point is 00:42:48 I'm not really picky. I just don't like super short. Like if you're like five feet, it's like, I don't know. You could be anywhere from like 5'2 to 5'10. I get down with short. I dated a girl that was 5'10. It was a little weird. That's a little weird.
Starting point is 00:43:01 Yeah. I think like 5'2 for me i'll i'll get down with like five feet i like like tiny tiny yeah i mean like i wouldn't pick five feet it depends on how you look five don't be picky kevin if you if you are like five feet tall but you're like curvy and sexy and like i don't want you to like look like a little girl yeah i mean yeah if you're like a a woman but you're shrunken down i'm okay with it if it starts to dabble in like how old is that girl like are you dating like a 14 year old obviously
Starting point is 00:43:30 I'm out how tall would you go again to like date now because like I'll have sex with anybody you know what I mean like I'll check it off the box you know check out the list um uh how tall are you like 5'8 5'9 um this um uh how tall are you like five eight five nine um somewhere i would date you oh thanks i
Starting point is 00:43:50 wouldn't date that's very sweet i wouldn't i don't think i could do like five ten and that gets weird i think when you're in heels and taller than me then and then yeah yeah and even that i'm really not like that self-conscious about it but if i'm'm picking, we're being choosy here, I wouldn't do, you know, like I remember this story goes that like Tom Cruise wouldn't like stand next to Nicole Kidman in certain ways or like he would stand on the step higher at the red carpet and shit like that. And he's short. And then you wear heels. He's like five, six.
Starting point is 00:44:19 Yeah. And she, I think she was like her size. I think she's taller than me. Right. So she was probably like a foot taller than nick than tom cruise but if i was dating a girl and she was taller than me i wouldn't be like freaking out about it but it would definitely be like on my mind and like a thing so i would you know what if she so how do you feel about girls that are shorter than you but then if they were like six inch stilettos they're a little bit taller than you yeah i mean that's not yeah that's not happening
Starting point is 00:44:44 all that often right because like i have some guy friends like one of my guy friends is like six one and his girlfriend is like six or five ten and she'll put on heels and be just a little bit taller than him and he's like i'm just walking around with like a bad bitch like obviously she's not taller than me in real life she's wearing like louboutins or whatever yeah but i don't know some people don't like to like physically looking up i completely agree i mean that's why i say if i could pick a height i'd pick six four because i can wear whatever heels i want i could wear my tallest heels and i'm something about like the eye line and like looking up that makes you feel like a little bit weird yeah like garen austin anytime that like i
Starting point is 00:45:17 do a video with her at fenway everyone's like oh you fucking midget it's like no she's like 5 11 wearing three inch heels right is she really 5 11 she's like, no, she's like 5'11 wearing three inch heels. Is she really 5'11? She's like 5'10. I didn't realize she was that tall. She was like a swimsuit model or whatever the fuck. Let's take a couple calls here. Pat from Long Island talking about boyfriends. So,
Starting point is 00:45:37 hey guys, can you hear me? Yep. So, one thing real quick is yesterday I heard you guys talking to the guy talking about the afterlife and Kevin I cracked up like laughed out loud by myself when he said if you damage someone's soul you're not going in and you just dropped a quick oh boy yeah I'm fucked so my question is my girlfriend and her entire family goes up to a cabin for like a week during the summer. And this is my first year not being a college baseball player.
Starting point is 00:46:08 So I've always had the college baseball summer that I had to like play in those stupid leagues to fall back on. How do I get out of this? And am I a bad boyfriend if I do create some way not to go? How long have you been with her? Going on three years. Oh, yeah, you got to go. I almost think that maybe once you're there that long, though, like eventually, you know, the polite has to stop and you can get out of it. Wait, how long is it?
Starting point is 00:46:34 He's been together three years. It's a week of no cell service, kayaking, sleeping next to bears and shit. That's a lot to ask. That is a lot to ask. I think three years in, you can be like, I gotta work or something. Have you ever gone on the trip, or you've always had an excuse? I've always had an excuse. Last year, I went up for just three hours.
Starting point is 00:46:53 I thought you had gone each time. No, he's always had the excuse because you played college baseball, and now he doesn't. I unfortunately think you have to go. You're going to have to go this one time, and then next year you can have a new excuse. Tell her it's the alumni game. Great call.
Starting point is 00:47:11 That's what I like. If you do it every year, and you get to the point of being together three years, four years, whatever, then it's like, listen, I have other things I need to do. If you've never gone, and you find another excuse after you play. Now it's very obvious. If you play sports, or if you like my ex get drafted bro yeah my ex-boyfriend played music like in texas i knew he was never gonna be going to weddings to me but if he was off for a weekend
Starting point is 00:47:34 and he was like i can't go to that wedding he'd be like well why not because you've missed every other thing for that right right right this dude's about to sign for 25 bucks as a fourth rounder just honestly that would be a very funny, a very funny, like sports comedy movie where like the, the dude's entire motivation is not to like make it pro. It's to not have to go to a wife with his girlfriend for a week. Like this is the first year he's like,
Starting point is 00:47:55 got to come back from Tommy John. He's like, I got to make it back to the bigs because I can't, I can't fucking go away on this trip. Uh, just go be a coach somewhere. Why not do that? Like try to be like, you know, for the kids, for the kids. I can't abandon the kids. A- be a coach somewhere. Why not do that? Try to be like...
Starting point is 00:48:05 It's for the kids. It's for the kids. I can't abandon the kids. Eitan, what do you got on height? I just want to give... Jared, I'll give you three inches. Whoa. Four inches.
Starting point is 00:48:14 I'm 6'6". Oh, yeah. You can spare him. I can't live on this world. Yep. It's not good. And then the way I wear my hair and my shoes, it looks like I'm walking around at 6'9". So that's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:48:26 My buddy's 6'5 and he really does not, you know, it's kind of grass is always greener. I think at the end of the day if I asked you though would you rather be 5'6 or 6'6 I'm pretty sure you're still taking 6'6 but there can be some champagne problems. It can be pretty shitty. Wait, why is Jared the one being
Starting point is 00:48:41 off at inches? So wait, you're going to give him how many and what are you going to get in return I'll I'll just get be uncomfortable out of the goodness of your heart Jared I'll give you 3 inches Jared okay I'll take them
Starting point is 00:49:00 that would make me 6'1 6'1 would be perfect again why is Jared the one being off at inches you can be as tall as me that'd be awesome we'd be the 6'1". 6'1 would be perfect. Again, why is Jared the one being 6'1"? You can be as tall as me. Yeah. That'd be awesome. I'd be a little bit taller than Kevin. We'd be the 6'1 boys. Yeah, we'd be the two guys.
Starting point is 00:49:12 That'd be perfect. So you can wear, what, like four-inch heels, and we can be the 6'1 show. I wear four-inch heels around you pretty often, or when, like, maybe, I guess not pretty often. And I'm always pretty, maybe I'm 6'2". I mean, I'm always taller than you. I've never been taller than you. Kevin's like 5'11".
Starting point is 00:49:26 I'm huge, dude. The more he talks, the more I think he's not even 6'8". Sam, what's up? Is there anything worse? And is it a red flag if we're going to a bachelor party and she wants to do a bachelor-bachelor party together?
Starting point is 00:49:42 Oh, no. The joint bachelor party. that's just an engagement party yeah i was gonna say i think you can do something like that and it can still be a fun thing by the way no okay but if you're trying to do a couple strip can be fun but to say it's a bachelorette bachelor combined party although i will say this if you're not if you're not the type who's like yeah let's go get the strippers and the blow. Yeah. It's like, what,
Starting point is 00:50:06 what, what, you know? Yeah. Why not? Why she's doing it though. That's the thing. She wants to keep tabs on you. So that's the thing.
Starting point is 00:50:11 If it's like, just, if you don't want to go, if neither the girls or the guys want to do like outlandish shit and they're just like, listen, like, let's just go together. Like,
Starting point is 00:50:18 let's all go to Nashville hangout. That's different. If the guys are going to do their own thing and the girl wants to combine it because she's worried about what's going to happen. Disaster that to me that's that's the main issue um because i guess it could you know let's say this is like some sexy bridesmaids and all of a sudden you have a girl a crew of girls to party with that that night ends in a fight definitely yeah and then the wedding like is in jeopardy yeah you know what i mean it's awkward because everyone knows too right but i mean if you don't put the pressure on it uh as a bachelor bachelorette party like if
Starting point is 00:50:48 you just say hey we're gonna go away for the weekend with like six or seven couples or like we're gonna whatever that's what i mean it's not it's just a different thing that's different like you can do that we did like a uh we got everyone together at wrath bones so that they could meet like the bridesmaids and the groomsmen and shit like that but we wouldn't you know you're not calling that your bachelorette party. We called it a meet and greet. I don't even know what we can call it. We just all got together.
Starting point is 00:51:09 But if you want to have a last hurrah and you want dicks in your face for the girls and you want strippers for the guys and all that shit, then it's probably best to stay separate because you will end up in a fight. What did you do for your bachelorette party? I went to Mansquan. I went to mask one. I went to Jersey.
Starting point is 00:51:26 Uh, we got a, like a beach house. It was like, it was like old school grimy though. It was like, I ended up inviting like everybody kind of, I was like,
Starting point is 00:51:34 ah, you can come to, and you can come to, and we got a house for like eight or 10 and we put like 18 in there. Uh, and then luckily, uh, they do this thing in mask on called around the world where all like the
Starting point is 00:51:44 share houses on like a certain block, you would have like the Italian house and I'd have the Irish house and they'd have the Canadian house. And everyone has like the same – like the themed drinks and the themed music. And Mexico House has tequila and all that shit and it's like a bar crawl, like a house crawl kind of. And it just happened to be the same like night, like the Saturday of the weekend we were were there we were supposed to go to a steakhouse and do all this shit and it was like out the window we're just like raging on the streets basically see that would that would be really fun with your guys no matter like you're not doing a bunch of like grimy shit it's just better like for me going to a bachelorette party it's we can get in everywhere for free and get free drinks it's not necessarily like oh we want all the strip no it's more just like we can get
Starting point is 00:52:23 whatever we want right if we're a group of girls. Right, that makes sense. I don't want the guys to ruin that. Let's take a couple more calls before the break. Grant from Idaho. I like that idea a lot. Hey, guys, what's up? Big fan, first-time listener.
Starting point is 00:52:35 I really agree with the point of high differential between girlfriends. That's a pretty easy mark to make fun of. But with my new girlfriend, I found something that I think is a little more embarrassing. We look exactly alike. We get sibling jokes a lot. Both lawns.
Starting point is 00:52:51 So Lannister jokes are pretty common. I was wondering if your guys' take, would you rather have a height difference or the appearance? What do you think is worse? What's the height difference? The height difference, she's perfect. She's like 5'7". She's on my shoulder.
Starting point is 00:53:09 Like height difference is perfect, but we look exactly alike. We get siblings. We get asked for siblings all the time. Yeah, if you know you're not siblings, I think that's fine. I don't know. I don't think that would bother me very much.
Starting point is 00:53:19 It depends if you're in the public. It's annoying, but it's not like, oh, I can't do this. I'm breaking up with you. Yeah, like it would not be fun every single time right. It wouldn't, I can't do this. I'm breaking up with you. Yeah. Like I, it would not be fun every single time to be like, no, this isn't my brother.
Starting point is 00:53:29 This is my boy. You know what I would do? I'd lean into it. I'd be like, yup. Grab her and freak people out. Uh, yeah,
Starting point is 00:53:35 no, but I, I like the Lannister jokes. That's pretty funny. I would like to pose this question to both of you and then we can answer it after the break. But what was the biggest deal breaker for you guys that popped up after you had been dating
Starting point is 00:53:47 for a little bit? Great question. We'll ponder it. I'll play you something that's going to give you baby fever. I want a fucking baby right now. Uh oh. We're back. I thought you and I were about to do a show together. Oh my god. Everyone's just like, we're going to do shows
Starting point is 00:54:03 alone. Shut up. Everyone's here. Casey, I'm always here. Well, not everyone's here. I know what time the radio show starts. I'll get it. No, not everyone's here. That's the issue. So I just text Marty and I said, hey, where are you for radio? Because Kevin is out today. This is obviously Jared's big recording day, so he just pops in whenever.
Starting point is 00:54:20 And he's in there gaming with somebody. He said, I'll be in there in 10 minutes. The Jared recording thing is one of the wilder things that I've been a part of. What do you mean? Like, everyone has a podcast. You just don't do it during your radio show. I agree with that,
Starting point is 00:54:32 but I guess, like, he does two podcasts on Thursdays. I don't really know. I mean, I'm saying that I just found out that the college football show may be recording at 2 p.m. on Wednesdays, and I was like, well, I do a radio show from 1 to 3, and Dave was like, I don't really know what the thought process behind that was. Maybe we should get that fixed.
Starting point is 00:54:49 I was like, yeah, I do a radio show from 1 to 3. It's parcel sports. You know how it goes. It's a wild place. It is a wild place, but yeah, I don't know. I'm actually going to skate out of here, because I just got a Taylor Swift album leak, so I'm going to go listen to that. You are not.
Starting point is 00:55:02 Ellie just came in so excited. Oh, that's right. Ellie's a ride or die. Ellie, jump on the mic really quick. So Ellie is an angel. She just brought me an iced tea or a coffee, whatever it is. I need it. So you both are big time Swifties.
Starting point is 00:55:15 The biggest, right? Yes. Not like someone texted someone. You're not like 13-year-old girls sleeping on Taylor Swift pillows or anything. Well, no. I mean, I have a Taylor Swift or that t-shirt, sure. But the... Of course you do.
Starting point is 00:55:28 There were... People were tweeting me this morning, like, why weren't you at Good Morning America? People said that to me. I'm like, what am I... I'm going to get up, wait in line at four in the morning? Yeah. I wouldn't do... I've long said I would not wait in line to meet Jesus.
Starting point is 00:55:39 So if you think I'm doing a Taylor Swift, you're not. Well, my question for the two of you is is she's apparently redoing all of her songs because obviously Scooter Braun is taking control, which I don't understand all the business aspects. She's pissed off about it. But I said this on the group chat this morning. I know obviously she's a fantastic singer. She always will be. She does play all those songs at her concerts. But aren't the songs going to sound ridiculously different now when she recorded as a kid basically?
Starting point is 00:56:03 I would imagine yeah but i mean then again like we have uh yeah we have like uh tupac uh we have technology and like maybe they can just make her sound like she's 16 honestly like are you gonna listen to him of course i'm gonna listen to him are you gonna buy them all i'm not gonna buy them all to be very honest with you i'll buy them on vinyl i got a i got a disc player or whatever you call it now so i'll probably buy them on vinyl record player there it is a disc player or whatever you call it now so i'll probably buy them on vinyl record player there it is um i'm not gonna buy cds i don't know where you play a physical cd but i'll buy it on itunes or wherever it is but isn't the point of her like remastering them for people to buy them i think it's that and then i think it's also she has the rights to
Starting point is 00:56:40 she wants to own her music because she doesn't. This is the first album, Lover. She owns the whole thing. Oh, this is? Yes. Oh, I thought it was like the last three. No, this one. Oh, okay. It's the first one. It's totally hers.
Starting point is 00:56:50 But then like if she owns, I think it more has to do with rather than people buying it, like people using a commercial. Yeah. You have to buy it from her. Okay. She has like the rights to it, which I think is fair. It's totally fair. I just don't understand redoing all of your songs.
Starting point is 00:57:03 What's it going to take, a day? She knows the songs. Hopefully. I think it takes way longer than that. I don't understand redoing all of your songs. What's it going to take, a day? She knows the songs. I think it takes way longer than that. I don't know. I mean, I'm exaggerating. It wouldn't be that hard. I don't know. Is she going to do, and I'm asking this completely ignorantly,
Starting point is 00:57:16 is she going to do a new album? Every single album is going to be a new remaster? Or is it like her best hits? I would guess she'd do the whole album. I would hope she does every single song. Yeah, go fucking Drake with it. Put out all your old new song your old songs again do the uh the songs that no one knows yeah yeah unreleased ones why wouldn't you let's go i don't know i just it's weird to me there's like you can go to like best buy and on the fearless next to
Starting point is 00:57:37 fearless whatever year that came out 2008 you're gonna have the 2019 fearless i i don't know how many people are doing that going to best buys but yeah that was a really old sense theoretically you could do that that's what i'm picturing in my head it's like when you remaster i know everybody's streaming but i'm saying the idea of redoing all of your songs and albums is just weird to me all right i guess i mean like she plays them at concerts still she's they're good songs but it's a live version it's always fun i mean sure. Yeah, but it's just different. I mean, sure, it's different, but... It's still the song. It's a song. And I want to support my girl. And yeah, she wants to own her music. That's why I'm asking if you guys will buy them all.
Starting point is 00:58:11 Again, I'll buy them on vinyl. I'm not going to buy CDs. I guess I can buy it on iTunes maybe, but I don't want to do that either. I will listen to them. I'll give her streams, but buying is the whole thing now. Which is the whole point of if you're supporting your artist, you're supposed to buy it. She's not doing this for the fucking couple couple people who are gonna buy fearless again she's doing it so she can own it if audi wants to put in a commercial i'm just pointing that out
Starting point is 00:58:31 they don't make shit for streaming yeah i know like 60 cents per stream or something oh i don't i think it's way less than that eight cents i think it's i don't think it's a whole set i think it's like a percentage of a cent i remember everyone we interviewed luke bryan he was telling us that like he had his first hit song or something like that spotify sent him a check for like or he didn't say the streaming service it was like three dollars so it's point zero point zero one six eight two per play so it's one set pretty much you're talking about like millions of streams and it maybe wasn't $3, it was $300 Or $3,000
Starting point is 00:59:06 Any of those numbers are still way less than you'd think For a hit song Whenever Roan put out the steak album I told him that I just put my phone on silent And just streamed it all night Over and over to try to get him streams He was like, that's really nice, I don't make shit off of that You could be playing it for a week and it wouldn't matter
Starting point is 00:59:23 How many times do you have to play a song to make a dollar? So I don't make shit off of that. You could be playing it for a week and it wouldn't matter. How many times do you have to play a song to make a dollar? So I don't have a dollar. I don't have a dollar but to make a minimum wage salary of $1,400 a month, you need 87,000 plays a month. 87,000 plays a month.
Starting point is 00:59:39 Can you see what the average stream is for somebody like Taylor Swift or Justin Bieber or somebody like that? Gotcha. He's going to check. I bet those numbers are crazy, though. For them? For them.
Starting point is 00:59:53 Oh, yeah. If you're just trying to make money as an artist, obviously streaming is not the way to go. Clearly not. 87,000 streams in a month. I think you've always made your money in concerts. Well, right. But that's stealing. I'm still going to stream, but it's stealing.
Starting point is 01:00:10 But it's like, wow. We've got Aaron in Ohio who wants to talk about Taylor Swift. Aaron, what's up? Hey, guys. How you doing today? Pretty good. How are you? All right.
Starting point is 01:00:19 Good. So I got a question. So say Taylor Swift redoes all her songs and theoretically couldn't they like a company say couldn't they just use the scooter braun version of her songs like what's stopping them from yeah i mean i'm sure they're a particular version i'm sure they could i i'm guessing they would charge a comparable again you're talking you might as well be asking about the stars um but i'm guessing they would charge a comparable price and then i would guess i mean theoretically lebron could just if you
Starting point is 01:00:50 wanted to he could just lower the price where so low where where it you know to screw taylor over yeah you could and i would think that would be a pr disaster that's not worth whatever he'd make yeah you're you're probably right and i think that i think the company that used his his version rather than her version would face a similar one which is like it might as well just use hers all right thanks guys i mean again i don't fucking know what i'm talking about we're not music i'm just i'm just pretending to be that you would have a pretty bad pr onslaught from the swifties if you decided well we're just going to use scooters version because it's a little cheaper. Okay, what if hypothetically, you're into hypotheticals, John.
Starting point is 01:01:27 Sure. What if, she's going to sound great no matter what. What if the older version just sounds better and you just want to use that version because you just think that it slaps different. God damn, you ruined it all with that. Slaps different. I heard you drop a slaps
Starting point is 01:01:44 different a few times when we were in Boston. So don't be- But like I did, like you almost like suddenly like you genuinely were like, I want to say slaps. Oh yeah, I did. A thousand percent. I'll allow that. She only asked the question, so she didn't say slaps different. Yeah, I'm not going to walk away from that.
Starting point is 01:01:58 I can't imagine they're that different. I mean, yeah, there's definitely a possibility. What's her first album name? 16-year-old Taylor sings Mean first. Mean better. yeah there's i mean there's definitely a possibility that 16 year old taylor sings mean first that means better um but uh although i think she was probably like 18 or 19 for mean mean was red wasn't it no mean was um i think no it was the purple one speak now speak now yeah okay so she was probably like 20 20 okay um yeah there's a chance she sings it better but it's i mean yeah i guess if you if that's the
Starting point is 01:02:26 argument you want to make to the public that that's the reason you bought scooter's version listen she sounded better at 17 people don't really singing that song when singing that yes yeah obviously now she's not yeah she's like gonna sound look if you want to try and make a reasonable argument to the public that's all you i'm not gonna it's not gonna end well for you i don't think if you try and say look i just did this song fits our product better uh i don't think it's gonna go well for you but you're you're definitely more welcome to try and use reason do you think that she is the number one artist that like if that happened that her fan base would go after him i mean because obviously we talk about like the thing is yeah i think i think
Starting point is 01:03:02 they're all equally terrifying crazy bts stands terrifying who is that oh bt oh yeah it's Popstar. I think they're all equally terrifying. Crazy. BTS stands. Terrifying. It's BTS. I've never gotten in a mix with them. I can't imagine how I ever would. Well, they're just crazy. You can look up any word on Twitter. Any noun, verb, whatever.
Starting point is 01:03:19 And you scroll enough, you'll find a BTS tweet about it. Like, any word. Anything. And you can find any BTS tweet and if it doesn any word anything and you can find any bts tweet and if it doesn't have 10 000 retweets in the first fucking two minutes that's a shit tweet it's crazy did they release did bts do an old town road remix i don't know i mean yeah i think i didn't know well little nasa if if they didn't little nasa should jump on that just to definitely capitalize on that yeah i mean justin bieber's fans are pretty crazy, but he hasn't done anything in a while for it to be. Everyone's crazy.
Starting point is 01:03:48 Our fans are crazy. That's true. Fans of everything are crazy. Yeah. I just feel like, I don't know, Taylor Swift is because, like, you're a 30-year-old man. Boy. 31. Whatever.
Starting point is 01:03:57 Thank you. Oh, you just turned 31. That's right. I apologize. But then you've got, like, all the really, really young Swifties. I feel like she just reaches a bigger. Everyone. Yeah. I mean. I don't like Taylor Swift very much
Starting point is 01:04:07 yeah I can tell you smell the fart this whole conversation I love her music because they're catchy but I just Taylor Swift to me bothers me oh yeah no I've always described her as she's the JJ Watt for me well that's a dumb comparison yeah I know you don't like it because you're from Texas or whatever I don't
Starting point is 01:04:24 it has nothing to do with the fact that he plays for the Texans. It has everything to do with how can you hate somebody that's just nice? Because he's annoying. He's not, though. I guess we differ in opinion here. Okay. J.J. Watt is undoubtedly annoying to almost everybody in the planet. But with all the shitty people in the world, and let's just say just the NFL.
Starting point is 01:04:42 But he tells us he's not a bad person. He's just an annoying person. No, I'm not saying that. But I just don't understand the J.J. W just say just the NFL. Like, it's like... But you mean Taylor Swift's not a bad person. She's just an annoying person. No, no, I'm not saying that. But I just don't understand the J.J. Watt hate. But continue. Okay. They're undoubtedly talented. I just find their personalities grating.
Starting point is 01:04:55 I can agree with that with Taylor Swift, just not J.J. Watt. So you're excited for the album? I'm very excited for the album. I got it. Don't, don't, don't. What do you mean you don't want to hear it? I don't want to.
Starting point is 01:05:03 I like being a part of the experience. Like, when it comes out at midnight tonight, I don't want to. I like being a part of the experience. Like when it comes out at midnight tonight, I will be listening. Oh, I was actually planning on, we're going to have like a listening party with Marty. I think Marty's a Taylor Swift guy too. Is he? He's a Miley Cyrus guy. I know that. I think Miley's a, Marty's a man of fine taste and Taylor Swift is obviously that.
Starting point is 01:05:20 I don't know what the fuck has given you that. I don't know. We're both just like, hmm. Probably the black heart but yeah I was like I was gonna propose a listening party tonight in Orlando yeah but you already have it so you're gonna listen to the whole thing
Starting point is 01:05:33 I'll know things you'll have the tips the insider you're like insider trading over here I'm down with that what do you think about this trip we're going to Orlando for I'm very jealous of it, first of all, because it's been a fantasy of mine for a long time to do the round the world at Epcot thing.
Starting point is 01:05:50 But it's going to be a shit show. I'm a little worried for the three of you. Look, I'm just there for the football. Do you guys feel like you're going to have to be like mom and dad to Marty? No. Yes, definitely. No, I mean, he might need a mom and dad. He's not getting a dad. If he's getting anything, he's No, yeah. No, I mean, look, he might need a mom and dad.
Starting point is 01:06:05 He's not getting a dad. If he's getting anything, he's a single mom. I'm not going down there to dad Marty. I mean, we're going to have to teach him about things. Although, has he been to Epcot? Have we talked about that? I think he's been to Disney like once or twice. I don't know if he's been to Epcot.
Starting point is 01:06:19 Does he know what all the countries are? Oh, goodness, no. See, I don't know. I mean, Morocco's a country. That's going to be a fun one to find out where Marty thinks that is. Where did you think it was? I said Africa. Didn't one of you say France?
Starting point is 01:06:32 Someone said France. I said it's near France. In theory, sort of. It's got French cultural tones to it. Yes, because the French colonized it. They can take it. We don't want it. They claim that whole region claims to be from the Middle East.
Starting point is 01:06:50 They're on fucking Africa. So they can go. We don't want them. You start trading countries away, Zah? Oh, yeah. So Zah hates Morocco. Good to know. Mark that down.
Starting point is 01:07:00 Epcot's one of those places, like, I think my parents dragged me there as a kid, and I just hated it. Because it's boring when you're a kid. It sounds like school. I parents dragged me there as a kid and I just hated it because it's boring when you're a kid it sounds like school I can't fucking wait I cannot wait to just
Starting point is 01:07:09 it sounds so much fun like Kevin was talking about yesterday on the radio that he his bachelor party they went to Jersey and they did like an around the world
Starting point is 01:07:15 like pub crawl and houses and I was like oh my god we're about to do that on steroids at fucking Disney World yeah it's like in college
Starting point is 01:07:21 you do around the world at like different frat apartments that's a thing see I never heard of people doing that yeah one country i've heard of it and like vodka and then yeah we just appropriate the fuck out of stuff it was super fun is epcot appropriating i think they do it probably in a respectful way i don't know if disney does anything in a respectful way i mean it was founded by a nazi so's true. Yeah, well, he was a Nazi.
Starting point is 01:07:45 Yeah, no, I just forget that. Every time that comes out, I just forget it. Yeah, he's a Nazi with a frozen head under the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. I did hear that yesterday. Do you guys remember that cartoon? It was like Donald Duck was Hitler. Did you ever watch that in history class or whatever? No.
Starting point is 01:08:01 I'd have nightmares of it. I'm afraid of Donald Duck, and that particular cartoon was too much. He was literally Hitler? Yeah. He was like my duck or whatever. He had the mustache. He was scary. I don't like his voice, so the whole thing was scary anyways.
Starting point is 01:08:15 You're just scared of a duck. That's not. I'm not scared of a duck. I'm scared of Donald Duck. But were you scared of him before you knew he was Hitler? Yeah, I was scared of him before I knew he was Hitler. Well, he's not Hitler, but he was Hitler in the thing. You should watch it.
Starting point is 01:08:27 It's scary. I have a big cartoon guy, so I'll get on that. You're a big cartoon guy? No, I hate cartoons, in fact. Although, don't you have a cartoon series on Barstool Gold? Yeah, well, that's more like me. It's cartoons where everything's very fantastical. Although, I'm coming around on that. think that's just something i know i think i think what i think i went through a phase
Starting point is 01:08:49 where i just just said i didn't like cartoons and eventually convinced myself but for some reason last night i'd watched the family the documentary on uh netflix i watched the first episode of that and then i needed just kind of a palate cleanser before bed so i actually watched like the first three episodes of rick and morty and I liked that a lot. And I love Big Mouth. So maybe I'm coming around on cartoons. We have a call on J.J. Watt. This is probably going to be pretty good. Can't wait. We had a couple.
Starting point is 01:09:13 Do something good for the Houston flood? I know. I've heard of it. I still don't like him. Patrick in Florida. What do you got on J.J. Watt? Hey, I had a question. You know, Big Cat built his brand on hating J.J. Watt. That's how I found Barstool, just everyone attacking J.J. Watt. I don't think Dan hated him.
Starting point is 01:09:33 He was more teasing, but it's because he was very annoying. He's a very annoying, public-facing personality. You know, he's like kissing babies. I was sort of, yeah, But it was like Look at this loser He wants everyone to love him Yeah he Exactly I can't imagine people
Starting point is 01:09:48 Wanting people to like him Crazy notion JJ Watt has a lot of Taste of A-Rod on the Yankees To him Where it's I want you to love me
Starting point is 01:09:57 And it's like Well you're just not Super likable So that's okay Just be yourself Like JJ Watt goes out there Trying to be what he thinks People will love And it's like Just be yourself People will love you That's what Aatt goes out there trying to be what he thinks people will love.
Starting point is 01:10:05 And it's like, just be yourself, people will love. Like, that's what A-Rod does now. And it's, everyone fucking loves A-Rod. But when A-Rod was on the Yankees, it was always... Yeah, but A-Rod acted like an asshole when he was with the Yankees. No, but he didn't always act, but it was like, asshole things.
Starting point is 01:10:16 No, he was A-Rod. He just wanted to be liked. His whole thing was like, he wants everyone to love him. The same thing with J.J. Watt. Like, remember Hard Knock? That was like the most obnoxious thing ever. It was painful to watch him on Hard Knock you but patrick you just said that that
Starting point is 01:10:28 jj waltz comes out and says oh i'm perfect i'm the best that is i can honestly say that's literally never flown out of his mouth like he's like i'm the nicest guy ever i'm such a good guy and then when people came around to liking him was like when he went on pmc and he like acted like a regular guy yeah no i understand that i'm not saying that it's not like he's not over the top or cheesy. I just think with all the shitheads in sports and all like the legitimate bad people, people want to then hate on JJ Watt cause he just wants to be liked. But yeah,
Starting point is 01:10:54 but they're at least real. Like JJ Watt like hired, I feel like JJ Watt hired a manager or an agent from like the eight, the 1980s where it's just like this, all this this fucking perfect image of what they think the public wants to see and that's just not what it is anymore. Public wants to see who you really are.
Starting point is 01:11:11 Just be yourself. I agree. Especially in this day and age with social media and stuff like that, if you're just yourself you will find a section of people who like you. Maybe it won't be the majority, but you will find people who enjoy you and who are like, I appreciate you for who you are jj was just never done that i just i don't understand it's i i get he's cheesy sometimes but just as like oh jj watson stuffable it's like who
Starting point is 01:11:35 cares the guy wants everybody wants to be liked except for you you don't give a shit no i want to be liked but i just and it's just like whenever he like donated all the money to the houston flood and all those things it's always like well first of all the money to the Houston flood and all those things, it's always like – First of all, first of all, he raised money. Everyone always says he donated. He donated money as well, but most of it was – it's like he gets credited for like $100 million. JJ Watson didn't give $100 million to them. Well, no, but people were donating to his fund. Yeah, that's great.
Starting point is 01:11:58 It's fantastic. But just don't say he gave the money. But he also does a lot of other charity things. And again, I'm from Dallas, so I don't – it's not that I'm standing for him because he plays for the Houston Texans because I don't like the gave the money. He also does a lot of other charity things. Again, I'm from Dallas. It's not that I'm standing for him because he plays for the Houston Texans because I don't like the Houston Texans. However, it's just like every time he does something nice, it's like, oh, he's just doing that because he wants to be liked.
Starting point is 01:12:13 Can the guy just not be cheesy? Just let him be cheesy. Who cares? I care. I don't like it. Do you care when people talk about Tom Brady being cheesy and they don't like that? No, Tom Brady's cheesy as hell. But do you like that? Yeah, that's who he really is. Cheesy is kind of goofy. How do you care when people talk about tom brady being cheesy and they don't like that tom brady's cheesy as hell but do you like that but yeah that's who he really is he's cheesy he's kind of goofy how do you not know if jj watts cheese or not have you ever talked to him in person you can just tell when someone's being different you get it just no i haven't i've never sat down
Starting point is 01:12:37 with jj watt personally i know people who have they say it's kind of the same way he's kind of cheesy yeah so he's the same thing as tom brady now i don't know who either no but tom brady doesn't put forth that that perfect image like his social media all this stuff is just like like dad jokes it's goofy it's weird it's but i i get a kick out of it and i'm sure that also comes from a place where i'm just his fan and he plays for my team but the i mean that that's i think that's natural yeah i, I'd agree. That's normal. I mean, it's definitely natural. You always stand up for the people on your team. And that's, I'm, JJ Watt, I.
Starting point is 01:13:10 JJ Watt doesn't, he's not goofy on like social media and stuff like that. He's like 10% like all the stuff that Dan and everyone made fun of him for. That's what he acts like. It acts like a kind of like the tough guy always in the gym. When Brady's in the gym, it's like a goofy post. It's not like, watch me squat. I think that I never cared to defend J.J. Watt until, actually, it's probably when I first moved to Boston.
Starting point is 01:13:34 They were like, just kill him. They'd be like, this guy is such a, he's so insufferable. And it's like, he just is a cheesy, nice guy. Who cares? I don't think he's actually cheesy. I think Tom Brady's actually cheesy. It sounds like he probably just doesn't have a lot of substance. Right.
Starting point is 01:13:50 But he's a good person. Yeah, sure. I'm sure he's a perfectly nice person who raised money for the hurricane, the flood in Houston. I just don't like him. I don't find him to be a personality I care for. I do understand he's not liking somebody for no reason. I can't figure out why I hate Brock't like him. I don't find him to be a personality I care for. I do understand he's not liking somebody for no reason. I can't figure out why I hate Brock Osweiler. I hate Brock Osweiler.
Starting point is 01:14:11 I have no clue why. There's nothing to like about Brock Osweiler. But it's just I have this – You have an original face. I called him a human garbage can one time, and when it came out of my mouth, I was like, that has zero substance behind it. I mean that's a weird one to just like – no one really cares for Brock Osweiler. I don't think anyone really likes him or dislikes him. I think to just like, like no one really cares for Brock Osweiler. I don't think anyone really likes him or dislikes him. I think it's just like, I don't really care about Brock Osweiler.
Starting point is 01:14:29 That's why I'm saying I can't figure that out. I don't know why I don't like him. Why you have this extreme hate for him? Yeah, it's not like I hate him as a person. I just, for some reason that just, I held onto that. And I feel like that's what happens with J.J. Watt. Oh, but didn't you say, like, didn't he play for a college or something like that? No, I.
Starting point is 01:14:42 You didn't like him in college? No, I, it didn't really start until the last couple of years. It was just like when people bring up Brock Osweiler. Is Brock Osweiler still even in the public eye? I've never heard that name. You just randomly started hating him when he stopped being on anything? I called him a human garbage can when I was working in Boston and we were doing our NFL show. So he had to have been popping up for a reason.
Starting point is 01:14:59 There's no way I would have just brought him up randomly. I couldn't even tell you what team he's on. Is he in the NFL? I don't know. Zach, can you check that? Is Brock Osweiler on a roster right now? It was when he was in Denver that I was talking about him. But I don't know where he is now.
Starting point is 01:15:13 I have no clue. Is there anybody that you hate? Free agent. Yes. Free agent. So he's out of the league. Free agent last. Yeah, not on the roster.
Starting point is 01:15:21 You're a free agent this far into training camp. He was last on Denver? Nope. Last in Miami. That's what I was going to say. Miami Dolphins. Let me not on the roster. You're a free agent this far into training camp. He was last on Denver? Nope, last in Miami. That's what I was going to say. Miami Dolphins, he let me go to the park. If he was on a team, I was going to think it was the Dolphins. Signed with the Miami Dolphins in week four of the 2018 season, Osweiler came into the 38-7 loss to the Patriots to relieve Ryan Tannehill.
Starting point is 01:15:41 That's the last time you've seen him. Huh, huh. All right, 833-857-8665. Do you just hate somebody for no reason? Because that's what we're going to talk about today. I do. Who? Who do you hate for no reason?
Starting point is 01:15:51 Speaking just strictly sports. Whoa. Speaking just strictly sports people. Tough sentence. Brooks Koepka. There's something about his smug face that I don't like. That's a tough one, Ellie. I know.
Starting point is 01:16:00 I know. I'm like, he's good. He knows he's good and he's a hot girlfriend. There's something about him that just makes me mad. I don't know what it is. I'm sure he's a great person. I know we love him here. But I'm like, he's good. He knows he's good and he's a hot girlfriend. There's something about him that just makes me mad. I don't know what it is. I'm sure he's a great person. I know we love him here, but I'm like, I just don't like him. Because you think he's too cocky?
Starting point is 01:16:10 I just think he just, there's something about his face. I love Brooks Koepka. I love Brooks Koepka. That's what I'm saying. I love how he just doesn't like golf. I think that's the funniest thing in the world. I don't really know much about Brooks Koepka aside from the fact that he doesn't like golf. And I think that's fucking so funny.
Starting point is 01:16:24 And he also just says he doesn't practice. He just goes to it. That just annoys me. His people work so hard and he's just like, you know, I'm just great. That's annoying. He's so good and so talented. He's like, you know what? I look like I should play football but I'm just out here just winning majors.
Starting point is 01:16:40 Didn't he play football? Or was it basketball? Basketball. Was it basketball? He looks like a football player he's like big like he he's also football hot like that's a different thing teeny tiny little butt though have you seen that picture of him and his girlfriend no oh my god there's this picture of him and his girlfriend and it's like the small it looks fake it looks photoshopped his butt is so small it's like it's so weird that's only something that i feel like you would know maybe i'm in love with him and that's why I don't like him.
Starting point is 01:17:05 That's why I'm noticing his butt so much. I do remember that picture where she made him like wear matching bikinis. She was wearing like a thong and I was like, that is so small.
Starting point is 01:17:12 What are we doing here? Did you see his pictures come out for the body issue? He previewed him? Oh, I did. And? Didn't care for them. I mean, I did,
Starting point is 01:17:18 but like I didn't because I don't like him. Because you just don't like him. It's unreasonable. Is our PFT and Dan going to roast him for doing the body issue? That feels like something that they're going to make fun of. I couldn't tell you. I don't like him. It's unreasonable. Are PFT and Dan going to roast him for doing the body issue? That feels like something that they're going to make fun of. I couldn't tell you. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:17:29 I don't know. The body issue was really something. It really is. Kyle in Orlando, what do you got on J.J. Watt? Hey, I don't know if you guys have been watching Hard Knocks this season, but I'm kind of getting a J.J. Watt vibe from Derek Carr.
Starting point is 01:17:46 He's trying too hard, coming off a little cheesy. Yeah, see, when I watch Derek Carr, I don't think J.J. Watt. I can understand the trying too hard thing, but I think it's just a different personality. I haven't watched Hard Knocks this year, but I saw a tweet from Captain Cons that said, Derek Carr is like the guy what is it when the camera pans to Derek Carr it's like someone you were playing pickup ball with in high school who like saw the
Starting point is 01:18:11 girls walk by and started trying way harder and and that to me sounds exactly like something I'd say about J.J. Watt so I would guess that yes Derek Carr is putting off J.J. Watt vibes Kyle I've only seen like bits and pieces of Hard Knock this season, but do you think that he's trying too hard to be the cool guy or the nice guy? J.J. Watt wants to be the nice guy. No, he wants to be the cool guy. Yeah, I would say he's trying more to be the cool guy. I think in one of the first episodes this season,
Starting point is 01:18:39 some of his teammates were getting on him because it looked like he brought baby oil on his arms to make him look bigger for the camera. That's a classic J.J. Watt move right there. That's right out of the J.J. Watt playbook. I don't really hate that move. I don't hate it at all. I mean, it's a preposterous move. Girls do all kinds of crazy shit.
Starting point is 01:18:57 Yeah, girls do all kinds of crazy shit. Guys usually don't. But guys should be allowed to. Why wouldn't guys? If you can, you should. You don't think so? I hope to see you guys should be allowed to. But why wouldn't guys? You know, if you can, you should. You don't think so? I hope to see you guys this weekend in Orlando. I was just going to say that. Thank you very much. We look forward to getting down there as well.
Starting point is 01:19:11 Yeah, that tailgate from 2 to 7, Saturday before the Miami-Florida game. I'm sure the Florida sun won't be too bad, though. It doesn't, yeah. I think it's only going to be like 89, though. Oh, that's it. 89 with a 99% humidity. It's going to be disgusting outside.
Starting point is 01:19:28 I'm going to have to buy shorts down there. I don't even have shorts. You don't own shorts? I have one pair of shorts. I don't know if I packed them, if we're being honest. We're going to Walmart to get our tourist outfits anyways. The phone calls are lit up with people that just want to talk shit about people. I'm kind of here for that.
Starting point is 01:19:42 Let's go to Jesseesse in chicago who do you hate for no reason i hate colin coward i absolutely hate him 100 every time i turn on espn he's always bitching well if you turn on espn he's probably not on there um but fox fox sports yes i i mean that's a that's a common one, though. You hate Hitler, too? I think everyone hates Colin Coward. Yep. All it is is just Baker Mayfield this, Baker Mayfield that.
Starting point is 01:20:14 He does one mistake in college, and he's just on his ass forever. He just won't let it go. I actually like Coward. See, Colin Coward is so good at what he does. He just has a punchable face. He does. And then you just want to punch your screen. That's just it.
Starting point is 01:20:31 That's just my opinion. No, Coward's got a weasel face, no doubt. But I love Coward because he does. I think I've come out the other side of that. When I was in Boston, I would get so mad. I know what you're doing, but it's still pissing me off now. Max Kellerman. Even like Kellerman, but Kellerman's not good at it.
Starting point is 01:20:50 Right. There are people who are good at it. Skip is, I think Skip's pretty good at it. Stephen A's amazing at it. And then Colin Coward's really great at it. Kellerman's just not good at it. I know what you're doing and it's just not working. Like, yeah, I can see the play you're running.
Starting point is 01:21:04 I'm just going to stop it. It's stupid. It's not a good play but with coward he also had a tweet the other day that i thought was perfect and it kind of almost was what that guy said where he's like you could turn on colin coward at any time he's either talking about aaron rogers or baker mayfield or tom brady or the patriots or bill belichick and tom brady or tom brady they said that like six times or baker mayfield or obj and coward replied to the tweet and said yep and if you go to the supermarket they're always going to be selling eggs and milk and bread because what the people want and i was like goddamn
Starting point is 01:21:35 yeah no colin i people hate colin coward but you have to respect that he does it because it's a, first of all, it's a solo show for the most part. Like, I know that they have the, you know, Joy Taylor was there, or I guess she is there now. But the fact that he riles everybody up is the reason he gets paid the money that he does. So it's like, but his Baker Mayfield takes are absolute trash. Yeah. And then, but it's also like, you know, he's never going to let it go. It's just that is the thing with those shows. Like, yeah, they'll find some obscure stat to say, like, this is what it is or whatever the fuck and you're just like yeah
Starting point is 01:22:08 but like we were just having this argument with um yp and frankie about patrick linea and it was like i think yp said linea is not good we're like yeah but he is and then he would like pull out stats he'd be like yeah but this this and like yeah but if you watch the games he's he's good patrick linea is a good hockey player and kyle kyle would do that it's it's i think i like coward for the same reason i like brady's social media like he's always he just fucking sucks their dicks it's amazing like i'll i'll read coward just 10 minutes on why tom brady's the best ever fucking retweet i don't have to watch it perfect but i did love when baker went on his show those are the that's the dynamic that's so good it's like if those guys a lot of the time don't have to watch it. Perfect. But I did love when Baker went on his show. That's the dynamic that's so good.
Starting point is 01:22:46 It's like if those guys a lot of the time don't have to really face the music for that, that's why I'm always here for the Baker slander because I know Baker is going to eventually end up on the show and body bag him. I love that when athletes actually do it. I actually didn't think Baker body bagged him. I liked him going on. I didn't think Baker looked bad, but I wasn't like, oh, shit, this is over. I thought it was fun. It was cool. It's not going to be over because Colin's just going to keep doing it.
Starting point is 01:23:10 Yeah, but I didn't think he ethered him, if you will. I think he ethered him with a slap beat. That's a good one. Keep going. It wasn't lit. Let's see how many cool terms we can get into one sentence, John Piedelberg. 31 and now he's not cool.
Starting point is 01:23:29 Wearing a Yeezus shirt. I didn't get my mouth open. All right. Well, the phone calls are lit up. 833-857-8665. Let the hate out. Who do you hate for no reason? It is Thursday afternoon.
Starting point is 01:23:43 In just a few short hours, myself, Fights, and Marty Mush are headed to Orlando. Wow. Week zero, which is still lame. I've never heard that before. It's a thing. It's a thing? Yeah. Oh, it's definitely a thing.
Starting point is 01:23:56 I don't like it. That's why I actually, we talked about that on the podcast. Brandon Walker and I, Unnecessary Roughness is out. First episode. Shout out. Go download it. Two hour preview. I asked him i was
Starting point is 01:24:05 like what do you think about the term week zero has it always been a thing no okay when did it start um it's it feels like it's still relatively new the the difference so it started like after i stopped watching college football yeah the difference this year in comparison to most week zeros is that there's actually like a really big game miami florida is a big time matchup and then arizona and hawaii is second secondary but usually they're just like non-power five schools playing and there's like two or three different games on quote week zero this year the reason it's a bigger deal is because they put a big time matchup and college game day is going to be at disney world not that anybody cares about
Starting point is 01:24:38 college game day but i asked brandon i was like what do you think about week zero and he was like i don't care i was like you know that people think that's stupid because it's a stupid name. He was like, well, I don't give a fuck about that. And I was like, this is where the college football fandom gets made fun of. Because Week Zero is stupid. Yeah, Week Zero is a very silly thing. It's not Week Zero, it's Week One. There's games being played.
Starting point is 01:24:56 Yeah, I don't know why. We need to, like, NCAA needs to get over that. But we will be there tailgating. It is a very... It's like they got a rumor and decided to just make the stupidest name possible. Well, it's the NCAA. Everything they do is stupid. Like literally.
Starting point is 01:25:07 And speaking of college football, shout out. Do you know Cash Daniel that plays for Kentucky? I do, yes. So he sent a big box of Kentucky football gear to me, Dave, the PMT guys, and Tommy Smokes. And in the letter that he wrote, he apologized for almost burning the house down with them in it last year. Did you ever hear this story? I don't believe i have so they went to lexington for rough and rowdy and i guess cash and like some of the football players um had them over for like a tailgate ish thing and they wanted to cook them dinner and the way that dave and dan describe it
Starting point is 01:25:38 is that they were like really nervous and obviously like these guys are big time barcelona fans they've got el presidente and big cat in the house But apparently the whole house started to smoke up and they almost burned it down because they were burning chicken and they all had to like evacuate the house. The house smoking or on fire? Because as someone who's cooked themselves, these are two different things. I've had a house full of smoke. There was no fire, though. I don't know exactly what the case was. I remember Dave coming back and talking about it on the podcast,
Starting point is 01:26:05 and obviously they roasted Cash for the rest of the season on the college football show. But I do know that the letter that I got in the box when I was passing out, because not only did we get all the gear, they bundled it together and wrote our names on it. It was great. Cash basically bribed us to never talk shit about Kentucky football this season. It's smart. It works. I mean, yeah, it definitely works.
Starting point is 01:26:23 I would go after Kentucky last year because they played A&M. I'm like, guess what? Kentucky. Kentucky football this season. It's smart, it works. I mean, yeah, it definitely works. I would go after Kentucky last year because they played A&M. Like, guess what? Kentucky, great team this year, and even if they stink. But on the letter that he wrote us at the very bottom, it's like, P.S., I hope that this still makes up
Starting point is 01:26:36 for the fact that we almost burned the house down with you in it. So I don't know. I don't know how bad it was, but Dave was talking about it again today, and he was like, I've never seen a group of big dudes that are, I mean, obviously they're it was, but that was, Dave was talking about it again today. And he was like, I've never seen a group of like big dudes that are, I mean,
Starting point is 01:26:46 obviously they're kids cause they're in school, but like grown men. I don't consider them kids. No, I've still never seen a college athlete who looks younger than me my whole life. Yeah. Cause they're just,
Starting point is 01:26:55 and they keep looking older and older, just like the girls, like 13 and 14 year old girls. Now it's like, what the fuck? Like you look like you could be 25. Even like maybe occasional kicker or something like that. But like,
Starting point is 01:27:03 if you're a college athlete, a football player, a basketball player, the hockey guys, all, you know, all the, the, the outside, you know, niche sports. But if you play football or basketball at the NCAA, you look older than me. I know you do. Yeah. Well, okay. So they're not kids, but he, Dave was saying that he, the group of them were so nervous. They were like huddled in the kitchen. Like they didn't want to come out and tell them that they had to leave.
Starting point is 01:27:23 So that he did that. He sent Dan some dip. And then he sent Tommy one of the, like, I don't know what they're called. They look like robes for when people are going to box. He wants them to fight and rough and rowdy and wear it. And I was like, you think Tommy's going to fight? Tommy's got a few gym days before he's ready for that one. And he sent PFT a cutoff flannel that he's won a bunch of cornhole tournaments in. I was like, if that's not a Kentucky guy sending gear, it's pretty good. So shout out Cash Daniel and college football. And you're a big time college football guy, Fights.
Starting point is 01:27:53 We're going to enjoy that this weekend. You can't have week zero without me in the building. That's for sure. Before the break, we were asking people to call in to talk about people that they hate for absolutely no reason. And it turns out people like to hate. I mean, I think we're very well aware of that. So we're just going to go down this list.
Starting point is 01:28:08 We'll start with Ben in Seattle because he says JJ watt. And that's what started this whole conversation. So Ben, what do you got on JJ watt? Yeah. Did you guys ever see it? He was on a, an episode of new girl.
Starting point is 01:28:20 No, I didn't know that. Yeah. I thought he stunk in that too. Yeah. He was, he was like, he tried to fire his agent over text, and then his agent died, so he tried, like, going to the funeral and erasing the message or something. I don't remember that.
Starting point is 01:28:35 You know how much I got to hate you for you to show up on New Girl, which is one of my all-time favorite shows? A classic. A classic program. It should be talked about up there with the offices and the parks and recs just just fantastic network comedy however if you have a uh appearance on that and i still don't like you and you know who else had a guest appearance on it and i still don't like her taylor swift both had guest appearances both stunk taylor swift did a cameo
Starting point is 01:29:02 on new girl yeah she didn't like she was in the crowd at Cece's wedding And then her and Cece Cece's fake wedding Not fake wedding, but wedding that didn't end up happening And her and Cece's husband Or soon-to-be husband ran away together I've never seen New Girl It's great, you should watch it
Starting point is 01:29:19 If you haven't seen New Girl, watch it on Netflix, it's unbelievable Did you ever see Bad Moms? The movie? Yeah I didn't care for it J.J. Watt was in that, hey did you ever see bad moms uh the movie yeah yeah i didn't care for it jj watt was in that what do you feel about his cameo in that i don't remember it he's that's how why didn't you like that you don't like mila kunis no i love i watched it because i love almost everyone in it and the movie itself i didn't really care for and i don't remember jj watt's cameo because he's not a really memorable person because he stinks i'm pretty sure it was bad moms it's he was like the soccer coach and the mean mom gets him
Starting point is 01:29:46 to bench the daughter. I watched that movie, Hungover. I fell asleep like four times during it. I kept waking up and they just kept talking about being moms. I was like, I get it. Maybe it wasn't the movie to put on. You know what? I think this is a you problem. Let's go to Nick in New Hampshire. What do you got on hated people?
Starting point is 01:30:02 Hey, what's up guys? Can you hear me? Yep. Alright, so you guys really got me going with this i uh john you're probably gonna be the only one who knows this but i fucking hate heath hemry from the red sox i don't i don't hate heath hemry because he follows me on twitter and if you follow me on twitter i don't hate you tell that to jj watch heath hemry is just like it's a name to me. Like, I don't know. I couldn't probably even say it.
Starting point is 01:30:26 Heath Embry looks like John Lackey after a bad night. I've never put that together, but now I can see that. Kenny Powers. A little Kenny Powers to him, too. Yeah. I like Heath Embry because he follows me on Twitter. And I also like it because he's always out there with a fat chewing. If you dip or you follow me on Twitter, I like you.
Starting point is 01:30:45 That's it. That's fair enough. So that's the John Feidelberg starter pack. If you dip and if you follow you on Twitter. If you dip, yeah. I've always thought that way. I could be in a room with someone for hours. This guy just fucking sucks.
Starting point is 01:31:01 I do not want to be in a room with this guy. I'm so tired of him talking. After a little bit, he takes out a tin. He's like, no, he's not too bad. I do not want to be in a room with this guy. I'm so tired of him talking. And after a little bit, he takes out the tin. He's like, no, he's not too bad. I bet he's all right. Just probably had a couple bad hours in him. And then, but as soon as he takes it out, does a little pack or two.
Starting point is 01:31:16 I'm like, this guy. I knew there was something about him deep down. Do you remember when you were trying to get me to dip at the Barstool Classic on Monday? Yeah. So basically now what I've learned, like whenever you're sick of me if i just take out a tin i've never dipped in my life there's no way i can slap it and he wanted me to dip how you go up in texas not dip you know what we're gonna get you we're gonna do some snuff no we're not we're not doing
Starting point is 01:31:35 any i'm out on all tobacco i've been i've been snuffing hard lately okay just you snorted why are you doing that oh it's fun to do man it's really? I don't know. It's fun to do, man. It's really fun. I don't know if it is. If you don't do snuff, you're kind of a sucker. I mean, I'll dabble in the smelling salts for sure. Oh, I like smelling salts. Smelling salts are good, too. They're no snuff.
Starting point is 01:31:55 No, it's no snuff. The only thing that sinks about smelling salts is that the taste stays in your mouth for hours later. You drink a lot of water. I one time, I feel like this probably happened to everybody, but I drink a lot of water. I, one time I feel like this probably happened to everybody, but I had a kid on in hockey country one day and he's just like, my thumb smell weird. And I was young, you know,
Starting point is 01:32:12 we were probably like under 10 and I was like, what? And he, I went to smell it and he just kind of opened his hand a little more before once it got under. And I took a big smell. Like, well,
Starting point is 01:32:21 I didn't even, I didn't dip my toe in the water. If this thumb had been up his ass, I was getting a whole nose full ass. I was like, and I had, it was, I started crying.
Starting point is 01:32:30 Like I was like eight. I was like crying. I thought I was going to die. You were eight. Again, I don't know. I say between six and eight. Well,
Starting point is 01:32:37 cause when we did it, those vibs videos, what does Frankie call it? Vibs is house of horrors over there. And Marty told me, do not run straight into smelling salts. I had never done it before. And I went to smell that smelling salt as if I was about to do a line of cocaine.
Starting point is 01:32:50 And it did not go well for me. He goes, you asshole. I told you not to do that. That thing for real. It did not go well. But if you actually use them the way that you're supposed to use them, they're pretty good. Hi, Jared. Casey Smith.
Starting point is 01:33:04 It's a pleasure seeing you here. So we're in the middle of taking all these calls right now. Yeah. I heard a call about Heath Hembree. Yeah. What was that all about? Well, we started talking about Taylor Swift because her album comes out. John almost didn't come on this radio program because he got the leak.
Starting point is 01:33:17 And we started talking about people that you hate for no reason. He hates J.J. Watt. I don't like Taylor Swift. I hate Brock Osweiler. So we started talking about that. And we asked people to call up with all their hate. And the guy that just called hates Heath, Heath Embry for no reason.
Starting point is 01:33:31 Heath Embry, uh, Heath Embry and I had a, had a bumpy start, but now we're in a great place. Like personally, how come at the first ever winter weekend, we like bumped into each other.
Starting point is 01:33:43 And, uh, he, he like, i don't think he was a huge fan of me but he was also like shit face so like i i i explained to him the conversation like later like i met him last year like for the first time sober and i was like yeah like this happened and you said this and then he was like oh I was shit face. I don't remember any of that. I was like, so then we're good. He's like, yeah, he's like, I like you.
Starting point is 01:34:08 So now he says hi anytime that he sees me. Yeah. Everybody seems like a nice guy. That's strictly based on the fact that he follows me on Twitter. That seems like a good fellow. That's where that came from. He said that if you follow him on Twitter or you dip, then he likes you. John.
Starting point is 01:34:22 You hate me, though. I do both of those things. I don't hate you. You just think I'm fat? I don't think I've ever called you fat. I don't think so either, yeah. You just made that up? Did you just make that up? I mean, I...
Starting point is 01:34:35 He's fishing for compliments. You want me to assure you that you're not? You're not fat, Jared. Thank you. Appreciate that. Do you hate anybody for no reason? I feel like there's always... I hate everyone until i get to know them oh that is true jared's really bad about that yeah but like i've admitted that like i told ellie i was like i thought i was gonna fucking hate you and then like i got to know you and then like same thing with like everyone like i don't like that about myself i i but if i
Starting point is 01:35:02 don't know you like i feel like i'm i'm like a no new friends guy so if you're just like you know like the new dog in the yard then like see I'm the opposite with that and I hate the way I am as well where it's I feel when new people come in like yes I should go out of my way and introduce myself but I just think that they won't don't like me like they
Starting point is 01:35:20 don't want me to want to do that like I thought he I thought fights hated me for like six months when I worked here because he just wouldn't speak to me did you hate me i know i never hated you i i've never hated anyone like who started here but i also just i think that they they wouldn't be interested in talking to me so i just keep to myself i think like i'll i'm on the fence about everyone until i get to know you but it's up to you whether or not i hate you or i like you after that like marty like when marty came in i was like i new guy and then he just he's so lovable that it's like all right i love this guy but you it's really up to you and your your first impression whether i mean everyone here pretty much i like that so jilly football
Starting point is 01:35:59 i've only ever spoken to her one time like i went up to like introduce myself And she's just like always Like this quirky character And I'm like alright I can't do that Like if you can't be like a real person Then I can't really talk to you I'm in the middle because I always give people a fair shot Because I want people to give me a fair shot But I also feel like you
Starting point is 01:36:18 I didn't go up and talk to you because I feel like you didn't like me So I'm like in the middle of both of you I always like people off the bat Because I want to give people the benefit of the doubt because I hate when people meet me and they're like oh you're different than I thought you were I give people the benefit of the doubt but I also feel like everyone hates me yeah I just don't want uh I don't know I just don't want to annoy people I think the best way to meet me would be like on a live show because then I'll talk to you and like if you come on radio or something like that I'll talk to you and all that because you're legally obligated to but in in a at a desk i feel like people don't want to be bothered so i
Starting point is 01:36:48 just don't go out of my way i actually remember so every once in a while people will comment on venmo payments which i think is a weird thing to do like i don't like people are trolling around venmo but i actually remember one of the first interactions you and i had that i was like i felt really bad about because i was like this is kind of awkward now i just know you and i don't give a shit but you picked up a bar tab at the smith and i and i was like well i felt really bad about. Cause I was like, this is kind of awkward now. I just know you and I don't give a shit, but you picked up a bar tab at the Smith. And I, and I was like, well, I want to like pay you for the drinks. And I wrote on the Venmo description, I'm sorry, I'm late. And one of my asshole friends, cause I felt like I had like not paid you fast enough. And one of my asshole friends from home was like, what are you pregnant or something? And I was like,
Starting point is 01:37:21 God damn it. I didn't see,'t i can't i didn't know anyone read venmo comments i never knew you left that comment that's that seems like one you were asking for it on yeah i just didn't even sorry i'm late like it seems like that's the only way to interpret that it was one of those like shit i didn't really think that one through but then like who is trolling my friend that did that like who is trolling venmo comments for that like what a loser like find a hobby like hating people there david in long island who do you hate uh i hate derrick jeter with a huge passion and i think it's perfect time for carabas to come on yeah to talk about that and i also just want to give a quick shout out to fights because he's actually the one who got me
Starting point is 01:38:00 to start dipping oh i go yeah call me joe camel so so i go to school down south and when i was a freshman i that's when i got really into bar school and i read your old blog about julian edelman and he was how he's like one of the few people to to dip skull cherry so yeah it's right i went and got myself a tin it was i went i went and got myself a tin. That's how weird it was. I went and got myself a tin, and I've loved it ever since. Hell yeah, brother. Thanks for that. What a thing. You're influencing people to start using tobacco.
Starting point is 01:38:31 I don't really think about that. I don't like to think about that. Yeah, that's quite an influence. You just start dipping. Pedroia did? Yeah. It was his rookie year, 2007. And some guys I played high school baseball with, they dipped.
Starting point is 01:38:44 And I was like, that's fucking gross. Then I saw Pedroia do a droid dude i was like that's fucking sick like i want to try that so i think i think i started mine was like the high school baseball players i played with it was like immediate it was also like if you played hockey and baseball in school like you were you were you were gonna dip there was no chance you were not dipping yeah and the first time i did it i was in uh like watching a football, a high school football game. I was at the top of the very top of the bleachers with the cool kids who dip and I was dipping for the first time.
Starting point is 01:39:11 They're like, come on up here and have a dip. That's like, oh, shit. Here we go. I had like one. I had to get carried. I probably had like two beers before. So I was drunk as shit. And I had to get carried out of the top of the bleachers.
Starting point is 01:39:24 I just like couldn't even walk down were you allowed to be with the cool kids ever again yeah yeah i left the school like two weeks later but you you got me back into dipping yeah no yeah this is just a wake-up call for you you're just like you're just influencing the the youth of america i never encourage people to do i actually like rarely even talk about it. I just always have it. I'm always doing it. It's not John's fault. So I,
Starting point is 01:39:47 I don't know how long I was out the game for. It couldn't have been very long, probably like six months maybe. And it was my first time ever at Milton. And it's just, it's, it's as simple as seeing someone else doing it. Like it wasn't like John was like,
Starting point is 01:40:01 Hey, he didn't even offer anything to me. I just saw him doing it. He wasn't like, Hey, why aren't you dipping you pussy? It was just, I was like his desk at the time was if you, if you seen like the, the pirate Simon, uh, like saga where he finally cops to actually downloading the part, the pirate porn that was at the bottom of the stairs that lead up to Dave's office in Milton.
Starting point is 01:40:27 That's where John's desk was at the time. And I was on my way up to Dave's. It was the first, I think it was the first time I've ever seen you in person. I think so too. So, uh, walk by John and it was one of those things like,
Starting point is 01:40:36 Hey, like we've, we've talked electronically, but never in person before. And then he's dipping. I was like, I damn now I got to dip. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:40:44 You're like a crackhead. Like if you, if you dip, you're basically a crack a crackhead like you if you dip long enough and then if you quit it's as simple as like seeing someone else doing it you're like fuck i gotta do it it's even the same way like it works with everything with me at least it's like i i work the same way with alcohol if i'm watching tv and like the cast member pours himself a drink. I don't mind if I do. I'll do it. He was like, I watched Mindhunter last night and you know, Billy Tench is ripping cigs nonstop. And I'm like, all right, Bill, you need
Starting point is 01:41:13 a partner. I'll tobacco up with you. Tobacco up. What a claim. Joe and Hoboken, who do you hate? I hate Dabo Sweeney. Oh, why? Yeah, yeah because he signed a nine not 10 year 9.3 million dollar contract then goes out and says college players shouldn't get paid and the only reason he says that is because that 10 or 100 million dollar contract uh would go way less if they started paying his players you You can throw Jay Wright in there as well.
Starting point is 01:41:45 He did a fucking Home Depot commercial right after saying college players shouldn't get paid and signing a huge new contract. Fuck that guy too. I love the NCAA hate right there because I think that players should get paid too. But Dabo Sweeney, he's just a nice guy. Just a nice, you know. Yeah, Dabo seems nice enough, but I completely agree with you. I agree with that take.
Starting point is 01:42:03 I think that's something that's tough to look past. If I're if you're like if and if i was a player like fuck you dude yeah although i don't you know i've never really talked to a player and how they think about this they might not want to get paid because then they they stop getting all their under the table payments they might be like let's not let's not keep this above board it would probably depend on who you talk to obviously like the big time names i i feel like it's just i mean we're not going to get in this because I could talk to him for 14 hours about this. I'm just confused about how you guys qualify hating someone for no reason.
Starting point is 01:42:29 I feel like there's always a reason, even if it's an underlying reason. Yeah, there's a reason to hate your best friend. Yeah, well, he hates Dabo Sweeney and he had a reason. I brought this up because I hate Brock Osweiler and I have no reason. I have no reason, I just hate him. I don't know, but there's definitely something about him that probably annoys you. No, I really, like he stinks at football. Like I just hate him. I don't know. I mean, like, but there's definitely like something about him that probably like annoys
Starting point is 01:42:45 you. Like, I know. I really, like he stinks at football. That's fair. That's a good reason. I hate somebody.
Starting point is 01:42:51 But like, he never, but he never affected my football watching. Like in a, in a way that I would hate him. I just, I called him a human garbage can. And I was like,
Starting point is 01:42:59 that came from a place of hate. And I don't know where it came from. Yeah. I agree strongly with that. There's, there's no such thing as hate. Yeah. There's something about them that you don't like. You might not be able to identify it.
Starting point is 01:43:09 I can't identify what Brock Osweiler has ever done to be a human garbage can in my mind. But there it is. People just love to hate people. Dylan, New York, who do you hate? Hey, what's up guys? Oh, hi Dylan.
Starting point is 01:43:25 Hey, what's up, guys? Oh, hi, Dylan. Dylan. Hey, what's up? So mine is like, it goes way back. I don't know if you guys remember Ruben Sierra. Oh, yeah. That fuck. I used to always hate him for some reason. I don't.
Starting point is 01:43:37 I think he used to be like the American Republic and like the Caribbean series and like doing walk offs and all that. But that's that was him. But also Casey for, I love the college football podcast. I listened to it today. It was awesome. Thank you,
Starting point is 01:43:50 Dylan. And what do you think about Miami? You think they're getting a dove this weekend? I don't think that they're going to win this weekend. Cause I think that they have more question marks, but I like in the college football podcast, you heard me say, I think they're the most intriguing.
Starting point is 01:44:02 I just can't figure out if Manny Diaz is going to be a good head coach and what their quarterback situation is. Yeah, I just have no idea where Martel's not starting. That Williams kid must be awesome. Yeah, I mean, he has to be. I mean, Tate Martel's kind of being just the ego that he's had, but for him not to start is crazy. That's why I'm kind of worried a little bit about your Hurricanes this weekend against Florida, but I wouldn't be surprised because I think Florida's overrated, too, so we'll see. Yeah, D's overrated too. So we'll see. Yeah, Dwayne Johnson. Yeah, we'll see.
Starting point is 01:44:27 All right. All right. Have a good one, guys. I'll see you in Orlando. All right, Dylan. My Dominican brother, Dylan. I love Dylan so much. He's the best.
Starting point is 01:44:33 He's my caller I look forward to every day. Yeah. Well, we've got a lot of calls, so we're going to get to a few more before the break, but we're going to get to all of them in hour two of CCK. So let's go to, I'm going to go to the people who have been on the line the longest. Let's go to John in New Jersey. You got like 30 seconds, John, who do you hate? I hate Rebel Wilson,
Starting point is 01:44:52 smug bitchy personality. That's a good one. That's a strong one. I like that. I got nothing. I got, I don't hate Rebel Wilson. I got got no passion You can sell me though Yeah, I just Just to be that fucking obnoxious I would never hit a girl But I could push her down the stairs Damn Damn, John Don't condone that, didn't sell me
Starting point is 01:45:16 Got a little too violent at the end He hung up, I was gonna be like What made you hate her? Was it Fat Amy? Where did that hate happen? I don't know. Well, yeah, but so, Dr. Smoot, I love. You probably don't even know what that is.
Starting point is 01:45:30 Nope. It's delicious. What is that? It's a healthy place, but it's just really good. They have this, like, special bread. Anyways, I'm starving. Hold on. Glennie Balls just walked by.
Starting point is 01:45:42 Oh, my God. What the fuck is going on? And he, Glennie Balls just walked by. Oh, my God. What the fuck is going on? And he... Glennie Balls has a design shaved into his head. I want to know, like, what was this for, Glennie? I told Willie that he can't have free reign over my hair the next time I need a haircut. Why? Because he said my hair is terrible, so I said you have free reign.
Starting point is 01:46:00 Wait, so what do you have? I thought you, like, lost a bet. I have a weird design in my head. I don't want to talk about it because I'm putting the video out in like an hour. Yeah, don't talk about it. But it's... Oh. I can't say I'm the biggest fan of it.
Starting point is 01:46:11 Wait, so did Willie suggest a barber to you or Willie did that to you? It was Willie's barber from the Steelers. We went to his house yesterday at his personal barber shop in his house. Okay. And I told him he could do whatever he wants and that's what he decided to do. So outside of that, are you happy with it? I personally
Starting point is 01:46:29 don't love it. Outside of what? The whole haircut? No, no, no. It seems like everyone is giving pretty positive reviews. Yeah. You've been one of the bad reviews. You don't seem interested. No, no, no. Here's the thing. That's why I said outside of that because I think outside of that, I like it. It's good. But then there's that. Yeah, I outside of that because I think outside of that, I like it. It's good.
Starting point is 01:46:46 But then there's that. Yeah, I'm with you. I think the left side of my head does look nice. Yeah, no, definitely. The lineup is great. The right side, whatever. But yeah. Yeah, don't give it away without the video.
Starting point is 01:46:57 No, I'm not. I think it looks great, Lenny. I think you look fantastic. I don't think you're being sincere. Hold on, turn to the side again. Let me see the whole scope of it. It was jarring when you first walked by. But you know what? It Hold on. Let me see the whole scope of it. It was jarring when you first walked by.
Starting point is 01:47:08 But you know what? It's okay. It's a little odd. You don't expect that of me. It's not like a haircut tailored for my personality. I think there's something there. I feel like that one was probably not the one I would have went with for you. But I think that there's something there on that same path.
Starting point is 01:47:24 I think you need a chin strap with it. I think they were talking about some facial it. They were talking about doing, I think they were talking about some facial hair. And then I was like, my facial hair is so bad, I can't grow anything. I wish I could grow facial hair. You get some fake stuff. After like a week and a half,
Starting point is 01:47:32 I just grow like a disgusting, like weeds of neck beard. Yeah. Where are we at on the Mets, Glennie? What are we, six games over 500 now? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:47:39 Yeah. What do you mean, where are we at? We're living like a walkout, James walkout last night. We won a series against the Indians. We're going to sweep tonight and then we have the Braves coming in. So you're feeling good about it.
Starting point is 01:47:47 Game and a half out of the walk-off, right? Well, you know, I've always told you I'm very optimistic. Yes. I'm very optimistic. You're the polar opposite of Kevin. Yes, exactly. Obviously. I'm a big, big optimist when it comes to the Mets or any of my teams, so I think we're good.
Starting point is 01:47:57 Love it. Six games over, and we'll be in the playoffs. You know what? I'm all on board the Mets doing a little something special. Thanks, fellas. The Red Sox are not doing anything special. LGM. LFGM. That's right. The Red Sox are not doing anything special. LGM. LFGM.
Starting point is 01:48:06 That's right. The Red Sox had a scheduled walk-off win today. It was the most preposterous shit I've ever seen. I feel so bad for the Kansas City Royals because this was a suspended baseball game that they resumed today for the Red Sox. This was supposed to be an off day that they were enjoying in San Diego. So, you know, that the wives and girlfriends are fucking rip shit about that. So they lose an off, the Red Sox lose an off day in San Diego.
Starting point is 01:48:32 And then the Royals go from Baltimore to Boston, to Cleveland, three cities in three days. Could you imagine going from Baltimore to Boston to play one inning of baseball? They played baseball for 20 minutes today. If I'm way part, that was, that was it. Yep.
Starting point is 01:48:50 I saw, I saw your tweet in the ninth inning. I forgot that makeup game was today. Yeah. And I saw your tweet. I was like, that's the first tweet I saw about this game. I'll walk off.
Starting point is 01:48:59 It was, it was 20 minutes today. So why did they decide to do that? Why? And then they just canceled. If it was already in the ninth inning? Because it was tied. Oh.
Starting point is 01:49:08 Yeah, it was a suspended baseball game. They picked it up in the ninth inning, and the Royals basically, they probably flew out in Baltimore, got to Boston, woke up at their hotel, and were like, I won't even warm up now. I'll show up in my uniform.
Starting point is 01:49:23 I'll get dressed at the fucking hotel. I'll show up in the uniform. Let'll get dressed at the fucking hotel. Yeah. I'll show up in the uniform. Let's play this 20-minute baseball game. There's got to be a better solution than that. How? I don't give them both. I guess you can't give them both away. If you're the Royals.
Starting point is 01:49:35 Just a wash? You should consider forfeiting that game if you're the Royals. Just be like, who cares? They are 6,000 games under 500. They are in a rebuild. Did you watch? Yeah. How many people were there? Not a lot. I would imagine not a lot. Can you imagine being
Starting point is 01:49:49 really cool to show up for that? No, I don't think so. I'd be pissed if I had to work it. If I was one of the people that... The people in Airmark or whatever that show up and have to do the food. It's a ninth inning. I guess they're doing food still, but were they serving alcohol? I bet you they had to
Starting point is 01:50:04 for State Street Pavilion, I bet you they had to like for, for State Street Pavilion, I bet you they had to do the whole buffet. Oh God. They probably had to. How can you not?
Starting point is 01:50:11 Like, how can you go to a baseball game and not have like your general food options? Oh my God. That is, that's wild. Yeah. That's wild.
Starting point is 01:50:18 So you, they resumed the ninth inning, the Red Sox walked them off and now they got to go to fucking Cleveland. Like I feel way worse for the Royals than I do for the Red Sox.
Starting point is 01:50:26 Like losing an off day in San Diego, like that sucks. I would love to have just a day to chill in San Diego, but having to do three towns in three days and play baseball in Boston for 20 minutes, like getting off the plane, getting to the hotel, the bus ride to Fenway Park, just being like, why are we doing this? I would be screaming. It is not beneath me to forfeit this game.
Starting point is 01:50:48 Who cares? Who cares if they forfeit that game? Did you know if the teams did legitimate full warm-ups? I would not do that. I don't know if they did. I'll come, I'll take my hacks, and I'm getting the fuck out of here. Yeah, I don't know if they did,
Starting point is 01:51:03 but I know that some of the guys. What time did the game start? 1 o'clock. 1 o'clock? Yeah, it was over by 1.20. That's insane. That is so insane. Should we get back to the hate calls? Sure.
Starting point is 01:51:13 Speaking of insane things, I just want to give a quick shout out to Patrick Chung. He'd been arrested or arraigned for cocaine possession one of the one of the great great great illegal things that have happened in this country is patrick tron getting arrested for this it was his alarm was tripped at his house the cops went into his house he wasn't even home and just found cocaine in his house you can do that i like it's it's illegal to have cocaine in your house now i don't know that i mean what are we even doing in this country anymore well i'm with you on that but i think it's illegal to have cocaine in your house now? I don't know that. I mean, what are we even doing in this country anymore? Well, I'm with you on that, but I think it's the more illegal thing is
Starting point is 01:51:50 I don't think you can just go into somebody's house and start rifling around. Well, I don't know how much rifling around they did. I'm guessing maybe he had a Demetrius Thomas-esque cocaine table, like the Playmakers. Allegedly. But the, I don't think they did much rifling around but i mean i guess they did have cause to enter because the alarm was tripped yeah but that's bullshit also
Starting point is 01:52:09 like the alarm was tripped like that you guys mean you can go in like a search warrant check in hello anyone here all right we're gonna close up like for all we know that's the burglars cocaine they might have that's the guy who robbed the house and tripped the alarm he put cocaine in there they planted it case closed hates patrick chung hates the seems it seems pretty easy to get out of if you ask me how much was it i don't know i haven't seen uh what if it comes out that it's like a blow amount like you're walking in like johnny depp's house i mean but like i think they would have like arrested him and stuff like that he wasn't even there so he didn't get arrested it was just like i guess this happened in late June.
Starting point is 01:52:45 We would have heard if it was like a blow amount. I'm guessing he had a little personal satchel of cocaine. Just a little tiny bit. Just a little, little bit. Actually, I'm here. I think the burglars did it.
Starting point is 01:52:54 I think it was planted just like whoever stole Julian Edelman's dip spit from your studio. She hates the Patriots. Yeah. I mean, that's still one of the great. How is that just coming out? What? The Patrick Chung stuff. I don't know. I don't know. Yeah. I mean, that's still one of the great mysteries. How is that just coming out? What?
Starting point is 01:53:05 The Patrick Chung stuff. I don't know. I don't know. Huh. Somebody had, there was a couple Patrick Chung calls up there and I was like,
Starting point is 01:53:12 why do people hate Patrick Chung? That feels like a weird one. Makes more sense now. Yeah. If you want to talk Patrick Chung, you can call back in. We'll sneak in between the hate. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:53:19 833-857-8665 if you want to talk Patrick Chung. Before the halftimeime we were talking about hating people and again people love to do that so we're just going to get back to your calls we're going to go to well this is probably just about the game because we are headed to Orlando right after this me fights and Marty for Florida Miami Tyler's been on the line for a really long time so we're going to get to him Tyler how you doing today what, Aunt Casey? Can't wait for you guys to come to Orlando. But I just got to tell you guys, like, for this, like, tailgate party and everything, you're going to hate your life. It's going to be 88 degrees, and then it's going to pour.
Starting point is 01:53:57 So it's going to be super humid and 85 degrees. So, like, from 4 o'clock to 7, you're going to hate it. Thanks for selling us some. Can't wait to get down there. Can't wait to be in Orlando. Yeah. Also, yeah, hammer that over at 47 by the way. The players are going to be cramping up and stuff
Starting point is 01:54:16 so there's going to be a lot more plays because the clock's going to keep on stopping. So just a little, you know, a little help right there. I mean, Florida's defense is pretty good. We don't have to jump into college football. Shout out unnecessary roughness. Go download it. But that's a high over for a first game of, Florida's defense is pretty good. We don't have to jump into college football. Shout out, Unnecessary Roughness. Go download it.
Starting point is 01:54:26 But that's a high over for a first game of the season when you've got good defenses like that. See, like, I think they're both overrated defenses. But we don't need to get into college football. Also, other question thing I had for fights, being an FSU guy, who do you give a shit about in this game? Or do you just hope that they both, like, kill each other? No, I don't really care about FSU.
Starting point is 01:54:45 I knew that answer was coming. I've explained this before. I'll explain it again. My years at FSU, I was there for E.J. Manuel and Christian Ponder. I was there when New England
Starting point is 01:55:00 Patriots played. People would always ask me at tailgates, do you care about this game? I would want FSU to win, but at the end of the day uh you know i'd love the patriots for 19 years at that point you can't get in my kitchen then and you know i'll care about you i'll be like yeah go i'll do oh i'll get problematic with it a little bit but the appropriating yeah but uh i mean it's not i'm not gonna you're going to have my whole heart. That's fine. I still root for FSU. Sure, go win.
Starting point is 01:55:30 It doesn't matter between Florida and Miami. It's not going to affect my day. You know what is going to affect your day? That rain and humidity. John in New York, who do you hate? Hey, what's going on, guys? I wanted to just talk about I hate, I cannot stand, absolutely despise Ninja. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:55:50 The guy makes a million bucks playing football. There's guys playing Fortnite. Excuse me. Sorry. He makes a million bucks playing Fortnite, but there's guys in the NHL who are making like 750K, throwing their bodies on the line every night. I cannot stand the guy. Oh, my God. I hate it. Because we grew up in a generation where like playing sports is like it was part of our day we go to school do
Starting point is 01:56:10 our homework play sports and then you go to bed and you wake up and repeat like correct me if i'm wrong but i hate it yeah i i feel like you can't hate ninja this is like the prototypical you can't hate the player hate the game Ninja's making millions of dollars. Oh, I love Ninja. I don't know shit about him. I don't know shit about him. I can understand hating the gaming world because everything that you just said, it's like, yeah, they're making a shitload of money off of playing video games. But Ninja's just—
Starting point is 01:56:36 I kind of zoned out. I had to look at my phone there. Why does he hate—because they make money? No, he hates Ninja because he said that growing up, they had to physically exert themselves to go play sports and that guys in the NHL aren't even sniffing the type of money that Ninja's making. So what I'm saying is if you want to hate the gaming industry, whatever, but you can't hate Ninja.
Starting point is 01:56:56 Why hate the gaming industry? Because they fucking make money. That's the thing. I think it's ridiculous, but I would never hate on them for doing it. No. It's always just like, fuck. It's always, like, I kind of look at it the same way as on a much smaller scale.
Starting point is 01:57:12 Like, what we're doing, like, people in high school probably thought, like, oh, that kid's a fucking loser. Like, he blogs. Like, he writes about their cool, nice MySpace blog. And it's like, now you probably wish that you were doing this. It's the same way, like, you make fun of kids that are playing video games. Like, guess what? Now I make a million dollars doing it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:57:26 I think that's, I do not know much about the gaming world, but I think it's awesome. I think it's, it's cool. I don't understand. I don't understand it. I believe with gamer gate and things along those lines.
Starting point is 01:57:37 But, uh, I think, I think it's cool that it's accepted in mainstream. Now I think good for those kids. It doesn't entertain me. I don't understand being entertained by it, but I understand like fine if you want to be entertained by it but if you're your whole life is making millions of dollars playing video games can't hate that one of the
Starting point is 01:57:53 biggest things that i'm proud of myself for probably the only thing really because i'm still kind of a loser but uh the biggest adjustments that i've made as an adult is to like stop hating on things that other people like if i don't like it it's one of the most important things you can do yeah it's one of like just letting people enjoy things yeah because it's like all right i don't understand why someone would sit around and watch someone play video games when you could just play that game yourself but that's a shit ton of people do it and they like it so Obviously, there's a reason why. There were kids, even back in the day,
Starting point is 01:58:27 who would come over when you're playing video games with your friends. They were kids who would be like, I don't want to play. I just want to watch. There was only a kid or two like that. I literally, because I sucked at it so bad, Twisted Metal. My best friend was so sick at Twisted Metal. He'd literally be like... At the end of the game, if you grew up on
Starting point is 01:58:44 the original PlayStation, if you beat you grew up on like the original playstation if you beat twisted metal the whole thing was like whatever character you beat it with at the end you could ask calypso be like i have this you know you get to grant one wish and he would always like take it out of context and like do something super fucked up to whoever won and at that he'd be like i love that that was awesome yeah he'd be like i know who you want to win and i'll be like all right i that was awesome yeah he'd be like alright now who do you want to win and I'd be like alright I want to see what happens when that guy wins
Starting point is 01:59:07 and then he would just beat it and I'd just sit there and be like alright go beat it I just want to see what happens I was like back and forth with that but there were definitely times
Starting point is 01:59:15 where I'd be hanging out with my friends and be like I don't want to play Super Smash Brothers that was always fun to watch I liked playing Super Smash Brothers
Starting point is 01:59:23 but watching that was always fun too i think that one moved too fast for me yeah what was this the snowboarding one that was so big oh 1080 1080 snowboarding yeah that one i wasn't watching that one no fucking fix
