I'm gonna have to murder Nate. I'm gonna have to actually kill them.
It's another edition of KFC Radio on the Barstool Sports Network.
A little throwback to the Zoom days.
Back to, like, pandemic days.
Only this time it's because there's a fuck ton of snow. This is a real deal.
This is a real deal.
I don't know if I just like, I kind of just
disconnected this weekend.
And I just like wasn't paying attention.
And I'd heard there was a little bit
of snow coming or whatever.
A little bit of hubbub about some weather.
And then, hang on a second.
I got something to say about that too
um the uh and then like i think last night i just looked at it and i was like i was like wait
if we get what's predicted it's a top 10 storm in new york city history monster dude it's like
18 to 24 inches in the city usually the city gets like half what like i'll get in the suburbs if you're getting a foot
and a half to two feet in manhattan this is monster i i woke up this morning at 6 a.m thanks
fucking de blasio to a fucking um iphone alert saying like state of emergency things are going
haywire and i was like it is that i mean i'm not gonna turn my computer because you're not gonna tell but it is completely horizontal yeah there's a good amount of wind too in the city when it
gets whipping you got that horizontal snow it's bad completely horizontal outside it's fucking
awesome i saw a truck i was on the street because i i waited till like there was about a foot of
snow to go to the grocery store to stock up and i saw like a big box truck completely flipped over like on its back like it rolled over i was like what that's crazy
yeah dude the the market moved during a snowstorm i was just talking to my mom like 20 minutes ago
and she was leaving the market and she's in massachusetts obviously she's they're not going
to get the brunt of the storm just yet.
And she's like, I just don't get it.
Like, all you kids don't live here anymore.
I just bought a fucking ton of pudding and Elio's pizza.
I don't even eat either of those things.
It's just snowstorm move.
Yeah.
I mean, and the things that you buy, everyone's like, you got to get milk and bread.
Those are the two things that perish immediately. that's like if you were to be stuck somewhere
that's the last fucking thing you'd want to be stocked up on it wouldn't go it would go bad in
a minute it's actually insane that we're like bread and milk like that's still a thing people
buy nuts i don't i couldn't tell you last time well actually i did make a sandwich last night
during surviving barstool um so that is off the table and honestly i drank a bunch of milk this morning so you know what milk
that idea let me tell you something it does not look like you've been eating milk and bread
you are fucking yoked dude you are this zoom camera angle is and that shirt is working bud yeah the whoop workout
is fucking working bro okay so i'm gonna say something here and sit back sit back just sit
back let the people see it look at your boy oh. Oh, my God. Shit. You better.
You got to watch.
Go over to YouTube, KFC Radio YouTube, because you got to look at Feidelberg in the cuts Henley right now to make it count.
Holy shit.
This guy, I'm about to fucking whip my dick out.
He looks –
The gym is working, kid.
It is.
Okay.
It is.
I've been doing the Woot workout for a week now yeah i do have i i i
noticed a change in the mirror i'm like get in the shower i'm like yeah not so bad results quick
when you work out it is it's it's easy though it is it's just you do what people think you do
you eat a little better you drink a little less and the the thing
i like to sprinkle in there my little difference is um have genetics like a failed stark experiment
really helps yeah i get like like knowing the whole feidelberg clan at this point like your
father and your mom they didn't have kids they were breeding they had a whole litter of kids who are all pretty fucking solid kids they're all athletes
they're all thick you mix in a couple cycles when you're in high school you know get the get the
baseline ready and now this kid he jumps some rope and lifts some weights and he's fucking
ripping through his cut shirt the cut shirts are they are – like, when you have a good body, the cut shirts look really good.
They're incredibly comfortable.
When you look – when you're in shape, the cuts, like, hugs you tight.
I'm like, oh, shit, this kid is made of stone.
But, like, the best part is they're cozy.
It's a very comfortable shirt.
Yeah, I don't know that's that kind of like stretchy material that's either comfy or it's like look at me you want to fuck me now this is not even an ad read for cuts i don't even think they're
in our fucking in our show today oh okay i thought we're going into an ad read but no that's just uh
well you know what i'll throw you another one because right now you need to fucking label those
things man fucking throw some labels on those guns.
Throw some labels on those pecs.
Fidelberg's going to be walking around just fucking yoked out of his mind with like gun one, gun two, peck one, peck two.
You got to label all six of your abs.
I'm doing – I'm getting 2A, obviously.
If I'm labeling anything, it's –

that's p-touch home by brother.com um so yeah we got the snow going i mean de blasio man i i can't tell if i just hate de blasio so
everything he does we point out or like he puts out that alert that's just like you can't go
anywhere past 6 a.m what is what does that mean bill nobody can go anywhere now i was like i have
to get on the road i have to get around i'm going fuck like i mean i get it it's like to stop people from going
unnecessarily but you know the list is like emergency workers and health care where like
okay bill pull me over then have the nypd pull me over in the 18 inches of snow you dumb asshole
that it seems like a message you've sent out excuse me first 6 a.m uh-huh maybe before 6 a.m so yes
that was the first of all or not no not even oh no see no opposite like let me sleep in and when
i wake up i'll fucking deal with it like why are you like maybe send that at like 9 p.m the night
before and be like get where you need to be because you can't just tell people at 6 a.m. you're not allowed to go anywhere. Or 10 a.m. would have been better.
One or the other.
But also it's one of those things with like – I don't know.
I feel like people in Alabama need that alert.
Like I've experienced snow before.
I know how snow works.
It's not one of those things where like in Dallas when there's an inch of snow
and everyone just pulls off on the side of the road like i think i think we do we find it silly when like people in the northeast see
that stuff happening but i do think that things are very different like i think our roads are
built different do you remember um because we always used to there was snowmageddon in i think
atlanta where there was that one picture all the cars were drawn off the road and one was on fire and it was like an inch and a half of snow
and i was like what is going on and then there was um something happened here once where they
couldn't get the salt out in time right and if you i totally took the salt for granted if you
don't salt even like the littlest snow can absolutely fuck you.
So I don't think we realize how much like the city actually prepares us even for when there's like flurries.
So we're like, ah, we can handle this.
It's like, well, if your city doesn't have tons and tons of salt to put out, no, you can't.
I think even like literally we're built different.
I could be wrong on this. I think even the roads are like there's're built different i i could be wrong on this like i think
even the roads are like there's a bit of like a curve to them so like slides off and then down
there they're like well it doesn't matter so we just fucking do it or maybe they do for fucking
floods i don't know but i think there's like a lot more turns out infrastructure like like civil
infrastructure pretty big important thing you know that there's some fucking guy at home who's like a civil engineer who's like, these fuckers all take me for granted.
Like I build these roads.
I build these sidewalks.
The only reason you're alive today is because I slanted the fucking roads.
And we're just like, you pussies can't handle the snow.
I have a friend who literally majored in civil engineering or whatever.
Right.
I was like, oh, good for you.
Like, we'll put a building here.
And she's always like, no, that's not what it is.
I'm like, yeah, okay.
Yeah, sure thing.
It's like the most important thing society does.
It's like building out how to survive and live in urban sprawl.
Yeah, the big intersection.
We'll put up some stoplights.
Oh, so hard.
I love it.
It's like in Sunny,
when Frank thinks he's pulling a prank
and he puts four stop signs at the intersection
and he's like, no one's ever going to move.
Charlie's like, Frank, you made it a four-way stop.
He actually made it a four-way stop also today is i guess would probably be the first day
of this winter that the kids should be having snow days that they're not gonna
but i i guess i don't well no they must be having it here right if we're in a state of emergency
right but i'm saying now they just do zoom school oh right obviously that's so that's what i'm saying like it's but no it's not the
first one because remember the last one what in december early december it was like that's kind
of when i don't yeah yeah yeah but long island like did like i think long island maryland like
a bunch of places were like they they heard our cries and they're like you know what a snow day is is a
rite of passage for good i didn't know that because i was thinking today if you saw on the
news that there was going to be 24 inches of snow and that you still had to do your school work that
ain't fucking right but new york city didn't i don't know if they did today but the blasio
on that on the last one he was no, we're still doing Zoom school.
I do not know what happened today.
But a lot of places on the old one were like, no, fuck it.
Give the kids a snow day.
And New York City said, we don't think so.
Public schools are closed today in New York City.
Are they Zoom schooling, though?
All the schools,
that's the whole thing. Schools will be closed.
It's just that they all have to dial in to their
fucking Zooms with their teachers and just
sit there and do work at home rather than watching
The Price is Right and sneaking around watching porn.
That's what I would do in the new era.
Could you imagine a snow day
with fucking pornhub at your fingertips?
Oh, buddy.
I don't think New York City kids do that.
I think that's...
They go fuck each other.
Yeah, that's J.D.'s stuff.
They go fucking rob a liquor store and do heroin,
what New York City kids do.
Yeah, no, never mind.
They still have to do learning.
They did?
Oh, my God.
It's a top 10 storm in history,
and it's like, just log in and read your books like
fuck that could you imagine you remember the stories asa used to tell about being like a
new york city kid where she was just doing fucking like ketamine and shit in like seventh grade dude
asa literally had one story she told us where she was like and that was the first time i smoked
crack and i really understood why it was so addicting i was like you just smoked crack just a one-off just a one-off like gave it a whirl let me try
this i'll hit that one time she's like i did i had one weekend where i just loved crack like
that's a happy ending then yeah like you know how many crack addicts wish they just had one
happy weekend with crack cocaine yeah man new New York City kids are a different breed.
I hung out with them like one time when I was like probably like 14, I guess.
I had a friend out in Pelham who had friends in the city.
And just like ripping cigs and cloves and drinking 40s and like weird liquors I had never heard of,
which were probably just like normal liquors, but at the time I had never heard of it you know and i was just like oh my god this is different dude
like i was going to movies with my friends back home and we're hanging out on a fire escape in
fucking harlem i was like what the fuck is going on i don't remember if i if i've told this or not
but like when i was in high school i had had a lot of friends who were from New York city. So we'd come down here occasionally.
And I had one buddy,
he's actually two brothers who both went to school together with me.
And we would come down here and we'd like go to the East village and buy
fake IDs. Like I had braces and shit.
The first time I ever came down and I know it's like kind of like a
Twitter, like I guess trope or meme or whatever
that like white people like are mean to their parents the first time i went i don't think it
i don't think it's a twitter meme i think that's just reality well yeah yeah yeah but like it was
like oh when the one kid tells his mom to shut the fuck up or something like that like dude the
first time i walked into their apartment
very nice apartment right across the street from the united nations his mom came out and offered
like us drinks or whatever like i don't know something fucking normal and he told her to get
the fuck out of the room and then in complete earnest said sorry my roommate is so fucking
we were like, broke team.
I was like, bro, you don't even live here.
What are you talking about?
That's a joke, like, that's the joke you make when you move back in with your parents after college.
And you're like, yeah.
And that's like a funny thing you do you
don't you don't do that to them for real when you're honestly i think he was he actually might
have been 13 i think he was a year younger sorry my roommate is so fucking annoying i i don't think
i had said the f word yet at that point in my life that's where like you can't tell me like
kind of like what bill burr said like under no circumstances can you hit a woman.
You're telling me I can't hit my kid if he tells me to shut the fuck up and then tells his friends that his fucking roommate's annoying?
You better beat the shit out of that kid.
And by the way, she was offering us alcoholic beverages, Kevin.
Like, she was being, by our standards exceptionally nice being like
does anyone want a fucking tom collins
oh man they're just different dude they are built different i can't tell whether those kids go on
to be successful because they're just fucking assholes and they're just like ready to take
on anybody
or if they just crash and burn because like their parents don't actually love them and they have a
drug addiction by the time they're like 16 i i have lost contact with them i do know one of the
brothers graduated with like his mba in three years so i imagine he's doing i think you either
turn into steve cohen or you like flame out and you uh and you die like in a ditch smoking crack with
asa akira this this steve cohen shit i'm gonna have to murder nate i'm gonna have to actually
kill him like dave dave at least like dave is dave he's built the whole fucking thing so he's
giving us a lot if he takes away my like relationship with the Mets in any way,
shape or form, that sucks.
But okay.
The headline from Nate being like the deal breaker.
Yeah.
I'll probably have to kill that kid.
I'll probably have to murder him with my bare hands.
Has that happened?
No, because I'll tell you what, what, what, what's what I'm lucky.
I'm lucky because Steve Cohen,
I don't think has any fucking idea
that he does business with us idea that my little outings are even a thing i don't know how much you
know it's an interesting situation i guess like when you buy a company like how much due diligence
does he do and does his people report back to you know like do do do they know that they have
ticket packages with this person that person because i i haven't heard anything yet but the
day that like we start promoting i mean the goddamn website is mets.com slash barstool like
it's it's very connected and the minute that he realizes that and he looks and sees the headline, world-renowned scumbag who built his life on lying, cheating, and stealing from the common man has deleted his Twitter.
Hopefully jail is next.
Fuck Steve Cohen.
Like, did Steve Cohen fuck Nate's mom or something?
Like, that is a brutal headline.
And then you click it and it's just like, yeah, oneve cohen had an sec problem and also gamestop is up i was like i thought he was gonna have some like deep
dark thing with steve cohen that he has all this other information and has some like vendetta
against him it's like the most basic fucking recap of what's going on and a bunch of made-up
accusations because of getting in trouble 10 15 years years ago. It's, you know,
it's the exact same thing as what people do to Dave where they're like,
but try six skinny jeans 10 years ago. And all of us always say like,
yo, you're going to bring up the past.
And that's why he's guilty this time, like bullshit.
And now half of Barstool turns around and does the same thing to him.
I'll be honest, Kevin, that is a fair complaint you have right there.
Yeah!
We are the kings of complaining about no evidence, bringing up the past.
We're not responsible for what everyone else does.
It's the exact Barstool argument to a T, except these dickheads bought GameStop.
So they're like,ve cohen's to blame
take steve cohen down this hypocritical motherfuckers i think you are completely in the
right right there and i think that it is like it is actually very prescient right now which
happened with dave with like the fucking with the denna lang thing was insane and like that's the that vice wrote that like we mocked
denna lang's injury yeah like the nwhl and like i think dave's like i'm gonna hear this forever
now right and it's kind of like the cohen stuff from an outsider's perspective it's kind of cool
it's like he's kind of a fucking badass about it it's just like yeah no i i take my sec penalties
which i don't know any of that stuff and i don't fucking know any i know i know uh we're still kind
of up cap just so we know here oh yeah no not a lot but like we i think we're both up like a hundred
dollars right now more than i've ever been with another investment so yeah so no never mind we're up we're
up 68 so i don't need anyone to go to jail i'm fucking living lavish right now dude i mean like
steve cohen's uh fatal flaw whatever was his twitter game because he's you can be the biggest
fuck out of that one i mean all that all that day one, never been more right.
I was so happy to rub that in dumb Mets, Twitter's face.
Everyone being like, no, it's cool. I want to interact with him.
He talks about the uniforms and the stadiums. Oh yeah. Well now what?
You dumb assholes. Yeah. He, you can be,
you could be Steve Cohen worth $14 billion. You could be the president.
You could be a Navy SEAL.
You could be the top of whatever field you're in and deal with things that are way worse than Twitter.
But when you don't know Twitter, you will get steamrolled.
When you don't know social media, not to say that Steve Cohen can't figure that out.
I think he figured it out real quick, and next time around he'd be super savvy because he's so fucking smart he can handle anything but that initial wave
his daughters his wife they all joined Twitter and they're all like let's have some fun with
this like new thing that dad's doing and then everyone was like fuck you die and they were
like well never mind delete this real quick and in our world that's the thing it was awesome until
it's the worst thing that's ever happened to you.
And in our world, because we're fucking losers and internet nerds, being on Twitter and like taking, you know, taking the brunt of your shit on Twitter is some stupid badge of honor that we think matters.
Like fucking, of course, Steve Cohen deleted his fucking Twitter.
He's like, I'm a billionaire.
People are being assholes to my wife and kids.
I'm just going to get rid of this.
It doesn't matter.
We need it.
We have to deal with it.
But everyone being like, oh, what a pussy.
Okay, I'm going to go back to running my fucking hedge fund and my baseball team.
I don't need to talk to, you know, Mets man 69, 420.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, if you want to talk to to me you have to go through my three
fucking assistants first right like i have a firewall set up don't ever fucking think that
you can say something to me and i'm gonna read it no ever happening never fucking happening again
but i mean and he's like you really can tell that he's not guilty by the fact that he was like on Twitter, chopping it up.
Like if you were doing some dirty finance shit, would you be out there just being like talking about it and hanging out and being like, look, take a look at this, guys.
I think the fact that he was even in the mix at all is the biggest piece of evidence.
He did nothing. And then telling Dave, like, let's take this offline.
Yeah. OK. OK, Steve. Like like just put down the phone and be done
with this there's no offline just be done with our all of these fucking assholes imagine think
about steve cohen wasting a millisecond of his life on eric nathan it's insanity to even consider that that's something he should,
he should tolerate.
I think it's also like asking him,
asking Dave to go offline is a,
it represents a distinct lack of knowledge about what bar school is,
which I think is a good thing as well.
I've made a similar request to Dave. Let's call it 10 years ago on a snow day and dave
wrote a blog about how i was a pussy for not showing up to work that day and i sent a picture
of the street where i was just like dude all my like all the cars on my street are buried it's
been snowing for 72 hours like there's no plow there's no nothing and he wrote a blog ripping
me and i was like a younger employee, exceptionally young employee.
And I was just like,
yo, like you're making people hate me.
Could you just like-
Stop.
If you just talk to me,
like, can we just talk about how like,
I can't get, I can't move.
You probably added that to the blog.
Added it.
Like right away.
I was just like, I can't do like, I'm sorry. I feel really awful about this, but I can't do anything to fix it.
And I feel like Cohen's kind of the same.
Look, man, I'm just helping a buddy out.
He said to him, what are you talking about?
He was like, no, I didn't tell them to halt trading.
No, I'm not behind the biggest fucking scandal ever.
Let's just talk about this. I was like, okay, that's the,
that's the words of an innocent man,
an innocent man who doesn't know Twitter and doesn't know barstool.
And I'm like, good, go back to that.
Go back to the shadows where you were and just be a fucking puppet master in
the dark. Don't spend your time tweeting at assholes like me. Come on, man.
Let's go.
It is such a, like a, on, man. Let's go. It is such a
difficult
revelation of life
when you have to talk about yourself
like that. Don't waste
your time with people like me.
I'm a nobody.
I'm no one. Worthless.
I'm just going to bring you sadness
and fucking perilous
moments. Leave me alone.
Do not acknowledge me with moments of interest at all.
Spit on me if you see me on the street and fucking probably have my coworkers assassinated.
That's how worthless we are.
Garbage.
Yeah, have one of your henchmen fucking murder me.
I don't deserve to be in your presence.
I don't deserve to even be a Mets fan and have any
sort of success on your coattails. So kill me now and throw me in the sewer. All right, let's talk
about, we got Super Bowl week here. And obviously the big, the big initiative for Barstool is
Surviving Barstool, our reality TV show.
So we got to talk about it.
It's brought to you by the Bose Sport Earbuds.
Bose sent me over some sport earbuds.
And they also sent me a weighted mask, the weighted eye mask, which is so relaxing.
Hang on a second here.
I'm upset about the
headphones that I didn't get,
but I'm furious about
the eye mask I didn't get.
They sent both, buddy.
I got the headphones right here.
Comes in this nice little package.
I'm trying to open it up with my headphones on, with my
eye mask on. Look at this.
This is sleek. This is dope.
Pop the top
here.
The earbuds
will stay comfortable
for hours. They'll stay in place. This little thing
slides up here.
That's sleek.
I was trying to yank it open. I couldn't get it.
This is some new age shit.
Just like, yoink.
Pop the earbuds in.
And it hooks around.
And next thing you know, you are good to go.
I mean, look at this.
Your boy is set.
I got the noise canceling.
John, I hope you're not talking right now because I wouldn't be able to hear you if you were.
I got the weighted mask on. I could just lay in bed and just chill out. Even if I was sleeping
in the barstool office for seven straight nights, I'd be able to just relax with my ear, my Bose
earbuds and my sleep mask. So it's all about being comfortable and functional, just like everything
else in the world today, right? And the most important thing about being comfortable and functional, just like everything else in the world today, right?
And the most important thing that's comfortable and functional is your earbuds.
So that's where the Bose Sport earbuds come in.
They fit your ear perfect.
They stay in whether you're running, riding a bike, lifting, whatever.
They'll stay put.
So whether you're listening to your music or KC radio, your favorite podcast you get the premium sound,
they have acoustic ports and drivers that make your music and your sound
clear, balanced, whether you listen to it loud,
whether you listen to it soft, whether you're running around,
whether you're still quality sound you'll see NFL athletes rocking these like
on, on the, on the practice field, on the sidelines.
Oh, I was just going just gonna say as soon as
you started that that read i was like well i'm i'm doing a podcast with russell wilson yeah i mean
mr unlimited right patrick mahomes rocks them too so whatever patrick mahomes is doing uh i mean
i mean if patrick mahomes says to do something go do it you know what i mean patrick mahomes
is not doing anything for the money anymore, pal.
If he says he likes it, he likes it.
Because otherwise he's got, you know,
half a billion dollars coming to him in every other way.
So the Bose Sport EarPods, the way to go.

like being like God being well no not being like God. Maybe being like Jesus Christ, the right hand of the Lord. The Lord is obviously Tom Brady.
But I think maybe be like me and you.
Yes.
It's not something to strive for, but it's at least something you can get to.
Definitely.
And then you can move on to bigger and better things.
Like maybe eventually you can get to be Patrick Mahomes.
But first, be like us.
That's step one.
But also, you can't get to be like Patrick Mahomes. You can have the same headphones as Patrick Mahomes. You can't get first be like us. That's step one. And then, but also you can't get to be like Patrick Mahomes.
You can have the same headphones as Patrick Mahomes.
You can't get to be like him,
but you can get,
I mean,
you can be us pretty easily.
Definitely.
You could,
you could be us and surpass us within like a week.
I think that that's one of my favorite Stephen A.
Smith quotes who I love to death,
but I think Stephen A.
Smith said like kids grow up and they want,
they want to be LeBron James.
You can't be LeBron James, but you can be Stephen A. Smith.
Right. It's attainable. And then, you know what I would argue?
I don't know anymore. I think there's only one Stephen A. Smith.
Yeah, that's true.
He is a legend, dude. A couple,
we got legends in the making here for surviving barstool.
By the time you listen to this two episodes will have aired.
We at the moment have only seen one, but the cowboy,
the cowboy, the glue guy, white socks, Dave,
with just an all time performance fights.
You were on the after show with me last night.
So if you guys tuned into that because a fuck ton of people did,
I apologize if we're repeating ourselves,
but for the people who didn't see, we got to talk about it on KFC Radio.
Cowboy trying to trick the audience, trying to trick his contestants with his handwriting,
trying to talk his way into sticking around when he had absolutely no shot.
It was just – it was a tough scene.
But he was the star, so that's the tradeoff.
He's fucking absolutely
gone and didn't even come close to competing for the ten thousand dollars but he is the star of
episode one so you know he's still here right yeah well he he's he's still yeah he's here
like because he's part of the jury now so you get voted off but you're like part of uh you're still
part of the show you can't win
but you're part of the show right but i mean like like right now as we film this on a monday
is he in new york city i think so no he flew out on saturday he's flying back on thursday for the This is, I mean, I love Dave.
Dave, he cracks me up is what we'll say.
Like we've had, we haven't had many arguments,
but I remember like, I remember having an argument
about when he did the, he's going to chain himself
to the statue outside and I did it with taylor swift right it
was like a whole thing and so that that's obviously probably the most interaction i've had with dave
this is the most i've ever liked like he was killing me on this show again as i said on the
after show last night uh i do not buy the baloney that it was a sleepwalk it was the blackout it was
like like i slept walk he said it was the first time in four or five years that it was a sleepwalk it was the blackout it was like like i slept walk he said
it was the first time in four or five years that it happened if it happens like you know once a
month i'd be like all right this happens all the time the one night that you happen to be like hey
guys we're locked into this uh this wacky situation let's party and get shit faced also happens to be
the night you do weird things wandering around in the dark yeah okay but yeah like i think i believe he was found on the subway right but where did he come out of it
that i don't know like he he said he was like halfway across the city but then i don't think
he was i don't think he would be able to get back in the building so i think he was just down in the
lobby because i don't think he had like if he had his his key card he would be able to just get back in period you know right wait hang on so nick got him right but nick
got him from in the lobby not from outside correct i think i don't know i'm not sure the footage they
showed was him like letting him back into the office not even like into this the building but
that's the only footage we have right so yeah i
don't know i think he was outside outside because his feet were filthy but he could also get filthy
from just walking around his office to be honest yeah i don't know if he propped the door open like
downstairs but he definitely doesn't have a key card since he's not in new york we wouldn't like
give him one so he may have like propped the outside door open, not realizing he can't get in once he gets like up the elevator.
If I had to guess, Nick just let him, Nick,
Nick got him in from outside outside. Right, right.
It is either way trying to play that card.
It's ridiculous. It's an all. And, but I also, I get it.
Like there are nights when I've gotten like super fucked up and then I try
and say the next day,
like,
Ooh,
I think I got food poisoning.
Yeah,
absolutely.
You had six glasses of fucking whiskey.
That's what happened.
Flight home from new Orleans.
I was so hung over and so sick where I was like puking,
shitting,
sweating.
And I was like,
this is,
this is something else. And everyone was like, no, it's not.
You spent a fucking spent four days in new Orleans.
This is your body like reacting to that. I was like, no, I'm sick.
I'm sick, man. Girls do that all the time.
No girl has ever been drunk or hung over. It's always like, no, no, no,
this, that I didn't have dinner. I, you know, whatever.
I have a migraine right now. Right. I'm over!
My favorite one ever in one of those is
coming home from Preakness once
and my buddy
the entire time in the backseat
was trying to convince us that he had
swine flu.
And he was like so sick.
He's laying in the back seat of the the um i i gotta i i
fucking forget about my story i might have told this one already too um but the he's laying in
the back seat of the car the whole drive home and he's googling airports being like wait like
seeing if there's a time where he can like we perfectly sync up on our drive back from dc
and he can get to an airport and land in line before yeah and we're going through we're going
through we keep not having any layover or any any time to link up and then eventually my friend
gets a call from his girlfriend on the phone and she's in tears and she's like my friend's brother just committed
suicide and my buddy in the back seat just goes oh so jealous
and we immediately my buddy my the girlfriend was on a speakerphone and it was a flip phone
so it was like an immediate like, close, like, what the fuck, man?
She had to call back, and she's like, was that just a, I'm so jealous I heard?
We were going over the George Washington Bridge, and then he got, like, defensive about saying that.
He's like, well, if you're going to be mad, fine.
Just pull over.
I'll just jump off.
I'll prove it.
I'll fucking prove it.
I'll put my money where my mouth is.
I'll get myself.
And, Kevin, I'll tell you this.
You know the friend who said it.
Yeah.
You've met him.
I can probably guess.
I can probably guess.
Oh, my God.
He didn't even miss a beat.
It was weeping on my friend committed suicide.
And guess what?
At the end of the day, he did have swine flu.
Wow.
Wow.
All-time twist.
All-time twist.
He thought he was faking he's hung over. No, he had swine flu.
Holy shit.
That's fucking funny.
That is an M-1 flu.
Oh, my God. Characters, man.
I love it.
I mean, that's – so people's so people some people surviving barstool are upset this
morning being like cowboys gone like so is all the fun au contraire my friends episode two which
will have already aired if you haven't seen it yet go watch it is the most awkward thing in the world
see i haven't seen it i don't even know what you're talking
about but boy am i excited it's it's awkward it is you get a lot of behind the scenes footage
a lot of people talking have you seen the episode or do you just know what i i see like a clip of
it i have i logan did send it to me so i'll watch it before it airs tonight um but i know where it's going and what
happened and who it's focused on and it's my skin is already crawling just thinking about it
and this is where like the villains start it's surviving barstool is the real fucking deal
trending on twitter last night got like a,000 views on the live watch.
The after show had like 5,000 concurrence at a time.
So a lot of people watching.
I'm getting messages from people being like, my family is watching.
Like my mom was watching.
Like shit that people outside the bubble and outside the demo are watching.
So we did a real full-blown reality show.
Part of me is thinking maybe we should have done it week to week because it is such a success to bang it all
out in one week it's going to be an awesome week but it's also like i think people would have waited
like a week in between each of these episodes they're that good so uh this week is sure to be
like big time barstool fireworks with the rest of these oh John Episode 2 I can't wait to do the after show
With you it's gonna be
Great
Really?
You know what is
One of the weird things with
Reality TV is what Trista
Now is like
I didn't feel
Like she looked like a villain last night
By any stretch of the imagination
but this morning or her tweet was befuddling the one about the office like no one's here
first of all i'm not going in at any point clearly but it was 7 50 in the morning pre
pre 8 a.m with 18 inches of snow on the ground, no one's in the office.
No fucking kidding.
No one's going to be in the office ever at that hour,
and no one's going to be in the whole day when there's a goddamn historic snowstorm.
You dumb bitch.
I don't even care about the snowstorm.
7.50.
No one except for Barstool Breakfast has ever been in the office pre-8 a.m.
Non-Barstool Breakfast is like 10 a.m.
And that's the other thing.
There is no radio.
So no one would be there.
There'd be no reason.
That's like if I went at 3 a.m. and I was like, no one's here.
No reason for anyone to be here.
I understand it's a pretty late hour.
It's not the time most people go to work.
We fucking have different jobs. I don't know a pretty late hour. It's not the time most people go to work. We fucking have different jobs.
I don't know what to tell you.
But I'm very rarely am I at the office before 10 a.m.
If fucking ever.
There's no reason for it.
And then there's some obsession people have.
It happens at Barstool.
It happens at other offices too.
When you're the only one there, you feel the need to tell people to show people
it's it's uh i gotta send a tweet because i gotta show you how i'm up early or whatever it is i'm
it's the rise and grind type twitter like i gotta show you that i'm working harder working later
up earlier whatever because it sucks and you need to get some sort of recognition any sort of credit you can get
you'll fucking take it it's the lamest thing in the world that that's some dad shit that's some
fucking dad shit where you're like oh oh i mean like as someone who lived at home during quarantine
for you know during the hard quarantine and like my dad would regularly be like just getting up
yeah bro we have different jobs, okay?
Yeah, I was up until 2 o'clock in the morning doing some other shit.
Now I'm sleeping till this.
And guess what, motherfucker?
You're going to be asleep on the couch at 2 p.m.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Dude, my dad goes to bed, like, to sleep at 7 p.m.
In the summertime, the goddamn sun is still out he's like well that's it for me
and i'm like oh you're gonna go like watch a movie in bed he's like no i'm going to sleep
like what and then he's up at like 3 30 or some shit i'm like why do you why do you live this way
what's the fucking point dude yeah so yeah trist is by no means the villain. After, and I don't really even know who,
but I do believe after episode two airs,
you'll know the villain or villains.
I think that will be established.
Now, how do you think, I don't know who the villains are,
but how do you think the villains will be accepted into the media into into the the zeitgeist like are
they gonna be like oh they're fucking dickheads or they're gonna well they're just playing the
game see i said i told the whole group the whole crew all the people on the show like good job on
surviving barstool now it's time to survive surviving barstool. Now it's time to survive, surviving barstool because the reality shows villains and whatnot are not made
during the filming. It's made during the airing. That's when, you know,
the bitchy bachelorette is exposed. That's when the,
the asshole like Chad on the bachelor is exposed.
Like that's when people start to treat you and hate you and take sides and if you thought
you had problems with somebody now think about when you have you know half the internet is
rallying against you and saying how much they love them this i don't know i don't think
at least the contestants except for to Tommy, didn't have much Survivor experience.
The audience, I think,
does have more, though.
So I think there will be respect for the game.
It all depends on whether or not you really care about Survivor
and have history with it,
because you'll respect some of the sneaky moves.
If you don't, you're just like,
oh, well, you're just being an asshole.
But it's like,
that's how you win the fucking show. it is also weird too because i would be someone
who would very quickly be like fuck that person they're an asshole i hate them watching a show
where i don't know the contestants right and now watching a show where i personally know the
contestants have a connection with almost all of them and a lot of people do here's gaming man
that's what happens right a lot of like i feel like you you know a lot of fans like somebody who's going
to be fucked over but they like they also might listen to the podcast of the person who's doing
the fucking over so you're going to have like reasons to take your sides outside of just what
you see on the show um but yeah it it's it's only going to worse so uh we're gonna do our top five today uh in honor
of surviving barstool we're gonna do the top five reality tv show villains uh in honor of surviving
barstool and whoever the villains are that uh air that that come to be after tonight's episode. It's brought to you by Olipop.
I, you know me.
I am like a full-blown soda addict.
Like, I drink Coke.
I drink soda like a child.
And I know how fucking bad it is. Like, I know that if I just stopped drinking it, I would be infinitely healthier.
But I haven't been able to find something that gives me that same level of satisfaction.
That's where Olipop comes in.
It is – I never believe any like, oh, this tastes just like this.
Or you're never going to be able to tell the difference.
You can like always tell the difference.
This reminds me of the real thing.
They have several flavors, all got the carbonation,
all the perfect replacement for the soda that's going to rot your teeth and your bones and make you fat.
It's a new kind of soda.
It tastes just like the ones that we all grew up with,
but without the artificial ingredients, without all the sugar.
They've got like all the classic flavors. They've got cola. They've got all the classic flavors.
They've got cola.
They've got root beer if you like it.
Orange soda, fire.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Disgusting, disgusting, disgusting.
Root beer, cream soda, both disgusting.
Cream soda, I'm with you on.
I don't know why they get lumped together.
They do, though.
They do, though, yeah.
I don't know why they get lumped together. They do, though. Yeah. I don't know why either.
It's wrong.
Cream soda, you're right. Garbage.
Terrible. Hate it. Fuck it.
But a nice root beer?
I don't drink a lot of soda.
Except
if it's in my fridge and I steal it from my girlfriend.
She gets really mad about it.
I never buy my own soda.
This I'll fuck with.
Yeah, this is a good replacement that's going to make you –
it's not going to leave you desiring the regular soda.
They also have cherry vanilla and strawberry vanilla
if you want to get down with some of those wacky flavors.
So me, I just like that good old cola and I like the orange.
I like a good orange soda.
Also, I feel like it's easier to replace something like orange.
The cola is tough because like a lot of people,
we've all been drinking that flavor for a long time.
So you really have your preferences.
And orange soda is like, you know,
as long as it's got some orange flavoring, you're going to like it.
So Olipop has 90% less sugar than the leading soda brands,
nine zero. Uh, it's not full of corn syrup. It's not full of sugar, artificial ingredients like

All right.
Top five reality show villains. I'm gonna go first because I have to get this one on my team. New York from flavor of love. And then her own
spinoff. I love New York was just the baddest bitch in the game. I love New York or rather Flavor of Love was just a force
to be reckoned with
it's before a lot of people's time here
but back when the whole
what?
what's so crazy to me is
I've honestly heard of these shows
I couldn't even tell you
one thing Flavor of Love
what's in New York? I don't even know
one thing she did to be a villain I know what she looks like because I've seen the in new york i i don't even know one thing she did
to be a villain i know what she looks like i've seen the gifs and stuff but i don't even know
give me a little thing because there was like at that point everyone took reality shows really
seriously they were all just like it was like the first generation of them it was like real world
and survivor and like the vote off shows and then vh1 came along and we're like we're gonna
make flavor flav the prize to be won and we're just gonna fucking populate this shit with ratchet
hoes i mean new york was spitting on people and like throwing champagne glasses out them and shit
like all the while being like acting like flavor loveavor Flav was like this fucking Adonis to be one.
It was some ratchet shit.
And she was as ghetto as they fucking come.
And there was a, there was something like white girl.
I think her name was like Sweetness or something like cute.
Pumpkin.
Pumpkin.
Pumpkin.
Oh, yeah.
Pumpkin went like kind of.
It was like New York, pumpkin and hoops.
Hoops was pretty hot, I think. And then pumpkin was in the mix and she was white and she made it pretty far.
And you can imagine how like a blonde hair, blue eyed white girl is going to fare against a chick like New York,
who was like, you shouldn't even be here in the first place. It was some gangster shit.
She I would like she's the last person on earth i would fuck
with the very last like the very fucking so she just spits on people like because guess what
maybe maybe she's at the top of my list for who i want to fuck with
if i want to fuck with you or fuck with you but she's just the top of my list for who I want to fuck with. If I want to fuck with you or if I want to fuck with you.
But she's just, you know, like a mean, sassy black chick to me is like the scariest goddamn thing in the world.
And she was that chick.
It was, she was like, because all the villains up until that point were like, you know, still put together.
And then she just came in with like all the ratchetness
it was a special special scene on on new york i love new york what a fucking bitch she was her
mom too oh my god her mom made appearances and her mom was fucking it was like she's the final boss
like once you get through new york you got to go to mama new york and she's even worse it's crazy
yeah it's crazy man it was crazy shit okay so i am gonna be honest and
open here i was going to like try and look up reality villains and and just pretend i'd watched
the shows that i haven't watched so i am not a big reality tv guy i do not know a lot of reality tv
so what i'm gonna go with is what's more reality tv than reality
number one i'm going between dave portland and donald trump one's gonna be one i'm going
portland one yes that's a good pick as soon as you said that i was like oh i know where this is
going yep yep that is i mean dave is the thing about Dave, he is such a villain because he's doing it like it's pure villainy, pure villainous behavior, you know?
Like he hams it up for the camera, but it's also like he would behave the exact same way if there were no cameras on.
He's just that much of an asshole.
But entertaining.
That's the important part of being a reality villain is you you can be
a dick but you still got to be entertaining yeah he's got he's got him both in spades i mean how
could it be anyone other than dave portland and you know what the number one uh reason he took
the one spot is with radio ending um on friday there are people doing a lot of rehashing and
retweeting older videos.
Him with Avocado Ross,
where he just knew right away,
he was just like, get a camera in here.
We need a camera right now.
We're about to start arguing about
something stupid.
Get it in here.
I believe the
resolution in that entire thing was that it just wasn't the same guy, right?
No, yeah, it was a total mix-up.
Like, that dude was just incredibly confused.
It was a harmless miscommunication that just absolutely buried this kid.
It's like life.
It's not even a miscommunication.
He was just wrong.
That wasn't a picture of you, dude.
Right.
Oh, right, right.
That's what it was.
No one reached out to him and said, like, hey, this is – like, no one from Moss, please.
But, like, it just wasn't you.
And, like, as a matter of fact, now you just shot yourself in the foot
because, like, no one was ever going to accuse this of you
until you did it to your fucking self.
Right.
The biggest villain move Dave Portnoy ever had.
I don't think he can ever beat this either.
It's so little known.
It doesn't really get enough credit because, like,
people will think of his rivalries and his fights
and some of those quotes.
To me, the biggest villain quote ever.
On the radio, I once said to him, I was like,
nobody has ever sold out faster than you. Nobody has ever forgotten where they came
from quicker than you. No one has ever gotten their money and turned from like a regular guy
into a rich like asshole faster than you. And he was like, I mean, dead straight face, dead honest,
didn't have to, didn't have to spin it. Wasn't trying to be funny.
He was just like, I was always that guy.
I just didn't have the money.
I was faking it back then.
I don't like those people.
I don't want to be a common man. I don't want to be around those people at Fenway and at the bars.
I just didn't have the money to back it up.
Now that I have the money, I can be my true self, which is not the common man.
And I was like, what?
What? What? Like this whole common man it's honestly it's so like donald trump like do you realize that on on
friday whenever that was during the steve cohen battle dave had motherfuckers being like dave
portnoy for the common man dave portnoy is worth a quarter of a billion dollars and acts like he's worth a hundred billion.
He pisses down the throat of the common man now.
It's straight up Donald Trump being a populist,
being for like the blue collar.
Like, how are you people buying this whole shtick?
He's telling you, he's saying to your face,
he hates you.
It's crazy.
And I'll be honest, that was,
there was so much that initially got me hooked into Barstool but the one like the about us where it was like we're the guys who will sit
outside in the snow waiting for patch playoff tickets and one time he did that one time he
waited online for tickets and in his head he became like robin hood it's crazy and i'll be
honest if we're talking talking about what got me hooked
into Barstool, and if you're a sellout,
I'm not waiting in line for tickets
anymore.
That's the thing. I don't think...
If it's snowing a lot, I better have a
box, Kevin.
I don't even want to leave my house.
I want to stay at my silk jammies.
I'm actually...
I am kidding about that one because it is the most fun.
The most fun I've ever had at playoff games are two where –
the worst seats I've ever had in my life, both up in the 300s,
and it was Pat's Broncos, Pat's Colts, the Flakegate game.
So still quite recently.
You'll catch me in the fucking cheap seats.
I don't care.
Yeah, no, you're a real one.
I don't think I was ever really that guy.
I mean, I agree that the best times I've ever had are more with, like, the real people.
But I'm also the type to be like, I'm not going to go all that way.
This looks cold for me.
I don't mind the, like, I don't have to be, like, the view doesn't have to be good.
I just don't like sitting in fucking brutal weather. I think one of the more underestimated things, particularly in hockey,
is that the bad seats are the better.
A good seat, yeah, yeah.
In hockey in particular, the –
They're up on the gas.
It's terrible.
We have season tickets like behind the Bruins bench,
not like my dad does, and like they're good seats but then when we did like the the blues when
we were going back and forth with all the stanley cup games and we were always sitting up top i was
like this is just this is just a better view like i'm just i'm just gonna say what it is this is a
better view up here yeah no 100 but but the persona that goes along with it all. Yeah. All right. So you're going to go – so Portnoy edges Donald Trump?
I think he does because I truly think he does.
And I think –
I mean, I guess you can consider Donald Trump's entire career.
But if you think about his run as president, it's like a third of the time that Dave has been out here doing it.
Right.
You know?
But, I mean, Trump's been doing it for a third.
That's what I mean. If you want to consider Trump the...
He actually
might be number...
Do you remember what he
used to call the New York Post? I forget what his
name was, but he would be his
own guy talking about Donald
Trump. He would just
feed them stories and they were just like,
this is Donald Trump. And he would just feed them stories. And they were just like, this is Donald Trump.
You remember, oh, what was the other thing? That time he,
it was the time that he
got a bunch of people to fucking
riot and take down the U.S.
Capitol. Remember that time?
Remember that time?
So, oh wait, there's an entire
Wikipedia of pseudonyms he's used.
Give me some of the names.
John Barron, John Miller, Carolyn Gallego.
Switching up.
I like that one.
I would kill a human to hear the recording of that.
Just Trump trying to sound like a woman.
Oh, he was speaking.
Oh, my God, Carolyn.
Oh, wait.
Never mind. Never mind. I opened the Wikipedia tab. trying to sound like a woman oh he was speaking oh oh my god oh no no never mind never mind uh
i just i opened the wikipedia tab a 1992 letter to new york magazine signed by carolyn uh galego
replied to it by the way okay so john baron is just like baron trump mixed with what's the j
is it donald uh definitely donald j trump i do not know what it's Right so it's probably Like my middle name
Mixed with like
My kid's name
Carolyn
Donald John Trump
So yeah
John Barron
Yeah
I don't think Barron
Was born yet
I think it's just
The name he liked
I think he named
Barron after John Barron
Absolutely
Galego
Galego is just
Mar-a-Lago mixed up
He was probably
Looking at a Mar-a-Lago sign
And was like
Galego
Well some woman
Named Carolyn
Cleaned his fucking his toilets um so yeah john uh john john barron was the 80s john miller was 1991
carolyn galega was 1982 and david dennison is 2016 i mean i'm sure he's been doing it even
you know right now what it's actually kind of surprising.
I thought we would have more Trump updates, I guess because he's banned Twitter and shit.
But we haven't even seen he's been spotted here or going there.
I wonder if that's because people are keeping their mouths shut or if he's just chilling.
No, he's just chilling at Mar-a-Lago.
What's his name?
He's not going anywhere?
No. He's a GOP leader. I forget's his name? He's not going anywhere? No.
He's a GOP leader.
I forget his first name.
It's Kevin McCarthy, I think.
He was just out at Mar-a-Lago and they tweeted a picture of him.
But it is also weird seeing that.
This is a completely different conversation. But how either A, easy, or B, impossible it is to quote unquote silence someone.
We're like, yes, by taking
him off social media, you have
silenced Donald Trump, and that is
something that people complain about and
all that stuff, and it's censorship.
But then you have, like, Josh
Howley?
What's his name? The Missouri guy.
You know this shit better than I do, to be honest.
It's Josh, I think it's Howley,
whatever. The guy who has like a picture of like the,
the fist up outside the instruction is where he keeps just using massive
platforms to complain about censorship.
So like either a,
just make someone delete their Twitter and they're like,
Oh yeah,
I don't really care that much.
Yeah.
Or if like,
you still want to really make it about you.
It's also very easy to not be.
There'll always be some
platform that'll take you uh tim dylan had a fucking funny bit on his show this week talking
about uh what if you start deep deep platforming in real life like your dad you know you're at the
dinner table and you're like dad you've been de-platformed all i said was that you need to
lose some weight yeah i know that's that's insensitive and you've been deplatformed for the day.
All right.
I'm going to go.
I'll go two and three then.
We'll do it snake style.
Okay.
I'm going to... I'm going to go with...
Real quick.
Yep.
I just have to also say
with Donald Trump,
he's such a villain
that even like people who knew it was bad were
like it's the darren revel tweet that i feel terrible for this country but this is great
yeah yeah yeah yeah they don't like the guy but you have to give credit where to do
yep great reality though right uh i'm gonna go spencer pratt not as much of a villain i mean
he's definitely a villain but i just think of him as like the biggest asshole in the world.
I think a lot of times with villain, you have to like win or be the best or be smart with it.
Usually, I feel like especially with the challenges shows, villain is said with an air of respect almost.
Where it's like, you got to watch out for that guy.
Spencer Pratt was just a cocksucker.
I respect him from a business point of view. Cause I think he was like, well,
I can make a shit ton of money with my girlfriend if we're assholes.
So I'm just going to do that.
But I do think he's also just kind of a dickhead in real life too. So I,
I think I'm going to, unless you want Heidi Montag,
I think Spencer and Heidi are kind of a joint package, but they were just,
they probably were the original, just vapid,
selfish, selfish, materialistic assholes,
where it was just like, we are pretty and we are hot and we hate you.
If you're poor, it's like, okay, all right, we get it.
Pretty straightforward. if you're poor it's like okay all right we get it pretty straightforward um and for my third pick
i'm looking at a couple lists here of things you know it's crazy how much like how many reality
shows there are because like everybody everybody's got like a show in some sense like i wasn't even
thinking of this but i just saw his name and i think i gotta take him simon cowell he's not like a competitor and a backstabber cowell might be the best yeah like he he
considering his run here's what i here's what i think here's why i think he might be number one
the longevity and the like pervasiveness of it all like if you say so you know if i say to you you're the you're
the simon cowell in in this show you know exactly what it means you know you'd be the randy johnson
and you'd be the the uh randy jackson you'd be the the simon cowell and even that i kind of
remembered randy couldn't really remember it but you know simon cowell and that means you be a
blunt asshole no
matter what the situation is and so like he became almost like a verb in a way like you're being a
simon you're you're pulling a simon and then you saying this is making me think back to the sunny
episode where they all did it yeah and speaking is paul abdul who was just drunk the whole time. Frank was fucking Randy Jackson.
Come on, dog.
Sweet TV shit face.
I imagine it was
Dennis.
By the way,
Paul Abdul,
if you haven't seen that or you don't remember it,
she was
shit faced
on air. i i don't because i only did
you gotta see this it's not like it's not like oh paula's like being a little funny
like it's almost joe namath type shit where you're like she's like honey at least maybe maybe well
this will be interesting to see if we pull it up. Maybe I've made this bigger than it is in my head, but I'm pretty sure she's like, you
are going to be great no matter what happens.
You are star.
I was like, how does, how do I mean, I guess at that point, American Idol can't just like
cancel a show.
They had like 50 million viewers a night, but how anybody put that on the air or, or
maybe that's them going, put this on the air or or maybe that's them going put this on the air
pull out dualist shit face let's go the i remember the first time i really realized how people think
how like the people in the industry think about that was um aaron andrews and uh and richard
sherman and i was like you know someone at nb is like, cut the feed when he's just like screaming at her.
Screaming at the world when she's there.
I forget even who he was yelling at.
And someone replied, like, I'm a producer.
I would never in a million years tell them to cut this.
Oh, yeah, you're right.
That's what you want.
I think as long as you're not like – you know, that's the intrigue.
That's the drama.
Like as long as there's not like something horrendously gruesome to look at,
I think you got to fucking let it roll.
Yeah.
But, yeah, okay.
So Spencer and Simon.
Okay.
My number three, I'm going to go Brad Marshall.
What?
Well, wait, hang on.
Let's do Paula's do paula first
okay
easy but it was strong paula oh gosh we've never had to write these things down
fast enough um jason the first song i loved hearing your lower register which we never
really hear um the second song i felt like the usual charm was missing from me.
It kind of left me a little empty.
And the two songs made me feel like you're not fighting hard enough
to get into the top four.
So, David Cook?
No, we should just sing the first song.
Just sing the first one.
Just sing the first one.
Oh, my God, I thought you sang twice.
Just once, but fall off. in the first one just on first i thought you um oh my god i thought you're saying twice you're seeing the future baby you're seeing the You know what? I'm looking at your notes, David.
You're fantastic.
I think she was shit-faced, I believe, on an interview.
Not when she was on the air, I think.
She was doing, like, Good Day New York or something.
I think that you're clicking on.
I hope this is what I remember, because I feel like there was one where she was on.
I was wondering, what is that?
Somebody else must be talking to Paula.
Good morning.
Good morning, everyone.
I'm going to ask that question one more time, okay?
I'll tell you.
Okay, what do Idol fans have to look forward to this season?
What are you looking forward to? I don't know.
Yes! I think we're having audio problems audio problems
we're gonna try to get back with Paula
in the meantime we're gonna fix the audio problems
I mean that was like
shit face where she's like I don't even
know what's going on
so you know what though
like let paula live i feel like if that came out during our barstool time i would have uh
i would have defended her i would have been like you know who amongst us
who hasn't been drunk at nine o'clock in the morning on fucking fox
yo speaking of fox by the way do you remember that guy greg kelly the dude on good day new york
who used to like have our back remember when the um when we got banned from roseland and and he did
an interview that was like um like oh like watch out that barricade like might fall over because
it's anarchy he was just like a local it was rosanna scotto and greg kelly and his his brother i think was the police commissioner and he was always just like a cool, it was Rosanna Scotto and Greg Kelly. And his, his brother, I think was
the police commissioner. And he was always just like a cool dude who like had our back. And,
and then he went full like broken brain Trump and his, like the last thing he went viral for,
like a week ago, he was like, I wish Joe Biden the worst. And you're allowed to do that. By the way,
you can wish people the absolute worst. And I do that for Joe Biden. worst. And you're allowed to do that, by the way. You can wish people the absolute worst.
And I do that for Joe Biden.
So, like, I hope everything goes extremely poorly for him.
And I was like, you know, I don't think you can do that.
When, like, the fate of our country is all tied into it, I don't think you can.
I mean, it flies directly in the face of the letter that goes viral every presidential election.
When George H.W. left a letter for Clinton being like, I'm rooting for you.
Your success is our country's success.
Like, let's do it.
As a guy who's a fucking Trump hater, that was my first blog after I got elected.
It was me and Chappelle.
When Chappelle had like the SNL, we're like, look, I'm rooting for the guy.
Right.
And I had a blog where I was like, I was condemning the protest, the election night.
Where I was like, look, nothing's even happened yet.
Let's see how it goes.
Right.
Me and Chappelle both ended up being wrong.
On the wrong side of history.
But I love you.
Your heart was in the right place.
You just didn't have much foresight on that one. right i what'd you say brad marchand brad marchand yeah
i mean that gif that you just posted the other day uh it's it's something like uh like who's a
pest or something that who's the pest yeah it is bradall is such a great villain because he is exceptionally talented he is a
a top 10 player in the nhl and people only think of him as a motherfucker because he's a motherfucker
because he licks people you know how good you have to be at being a motherfucker to outweigh
all your talent when you have the level of talent he
has it's crazy like a legitimate top 10 player in the NHL I remember and I didn't think that when
he signed his contract I thought he was good no doubt um but I just didn't think of him that well
on that level and then I had like true blue top 10 NHL players reach out to me being like
how the fuck did you guys get him to sign that contract he's a top 10 NHL players reach out to me being like, how the fuck did you guys get him to sign that contract?
He's a top 10 NHL player. And I was like, Oh wow.
Like I didn't even ask any like player who's played against him.
He's a top 10 guy.
And he still is like just thought of as a fucking asshole.
Right.
He's unbelievable. I can't,
I cannot say enough good things about Brad Marchand being bad. Again, that's the respect level. And everyone's like, ah, he's unbelievable i can't i cannot say enough good things about brad marchand being bad again that's the the respect level and everyone's like his abilities a pest it's like
but you want to see him on the ice i mean there was kevin there was an entire thing
two playoffs ago maybe three he was just licking people's faces. Yeah, licking people's faces. It wasn't a one-time
incident. He just kept licking
people.
You're talking about
New York spitting on folks.
A lick is worse than a spit.
Just a tongue lick,
right?
For my
fourth pick, I'm going
OG. The original fucking gangster puck puck from the real world
san francisco he's a black guy with bleach hair right he's no no that's tech
oh okay thinking of tech tech was great tech was like a like a party guy he was he was in van
wilder and like yeah yeah puck was like a early 90s i think it was like the like a party guy he was he was in van wilder and like yeah hawk was like a early
90s i think it was like the very first real world i think san francisco and he was like uh
almost looked like billy idol kind of like bleached short hair uh tattoos everywhere but he i think
got kicked off so he was like the first guy to like get kicked off because I think he made fun of the dude who was gay with AIDS. He just, he aided everybody. Yeah.
Pedro was, was, uh, he was openly gay and had AIDS.
And I think Puck was like dropping F bombs and like making fun of him.
I think he was just a real piece. Yeah. Yeah. Let me see. Uh, yeah.
Puck the real world, San Francisco. Um,
when his relationship with roommate hiv positive pedro
zamora hit a boiling point that almost said zamora running for the house puck was evicted
so like he refused to take showers so he stunk so he was unwashed uh and which honestly probably
was the main reason i bet you they were like you're a you're a real fucking asshole but we
did sign up for that we didn't sign up to hang out with like a homeless person who stinks
i think like making fun of the terminally ill aids patient uh might have been the breaking point
so og villain puck okay fuck fuck all right um see now i actually do have so I have three names I want to use
I only have two more to go
okay
one of them I don't even remember
if she was a villain
I just remember she had a stupid name
so I guess I'm going to just do it
and I honestly this might get
ratioed or I might get crushed
but Trishel from Vegas I I think she was, I don't really remember.
I just remember that was the only season of like real world
I was like heavily invested in as a kid.
I remember like wanting to fuck her.
I think the thing about real world Las Vegas was
everyone was just like shit-faced all the time.
I don't know if she was a villain,
but they were all just like selfish assholes.
You know what I mean?
They were all,
let me see that.
I think the Miz was in that one,
but I might be wrong.
So this had Arisa,
Frank,
Bryn,
Alton,
Steven,
Irulan,
and Trishel.
And I just remember Trishel being like – she was kind of the hot one.
I'm reading her bio here, though.
She was also the hot one by like late 90s, early 2000s.
What year was it?
This was – no, yeah, 2002. yeah 2002 2002 okay so like by like 2002 standards
i don't think i'm gonna i don't even remember what exactly what she looked like i remember
she just had like the brianna banks boobs where it was like yeah it was like true bolt-on tits
yep yeah she she i think that's i think she was more just like the hot selfish girl than necessarily
because i don't think she was like smart
Enough to be the villain but
That's the beauty of the villain you can either be like the
Smart conniving kind or you can just be like
The dumb brainless kind
Also I take that
By the way
I was going to say
I think by my standards she could get it
Whenever whatever age whatever time period
But also you know what really helps?
That name.
Trishel, you're going to be a hot, hot slutty chick.
Or like maybe not slutty, but you're going to bring the heat in bed.
Malcolm Gladwell in The Tipping Point has a theory, I suppose,
about how your name really predicts your future.
Because I think the example he uses in the book is that
classrooms are usually set up in alphabetic order and therefore if you have a like a name you sit
in the front because that's just a weird sign and if you're sitting in the front you are more prone
to pay attention and that kind of shit whereas like everyone with a bad name is in the back
trichelle doesn't really factor into any of that although i
guess yeah you probably end up towards the back of it but that trichelle like you have one option
your life if your name is trichelle and it's kind of being the drunk chick with fake tits on real
world yeah like it was either in her in her like it was either be like a stripper or a porn star
or real world now that's up to you whether shepper or a porn star or real world.
Now, that's up to you whether she – if you're going to do real world,
you might as well just go do the real thing.
I can't say, well, good for her for making it the real world instead.
She probably should have just gone and been a porn star.
Guess what?
Trishel, that option is still open.
I'll check it out.
I will.
Onlyfans.com slash real world Trishel. I'm there, babe. I'm there it out. I will. Onlyfans.com slash realworldtrichelle.
I'm there, babe.
I'm there for you.
All right.
My final pick here.
I – well, there's two that I want to pick.
One, I don't necessarily think of as a villain.
I think more of a,
just kind of a piece of shit chick.
And that's teen mom,
Farrah Abraham.
But the other one is more of a villain.
And I believe owns the most villainous single move in TV history.
And that's Johnny bananas.
When he took the $500,000 for himself and didn't split it with his teammate, which was just like,
that'd be like a me and you made it to the final. And it was like, Kevin,
do you want to split the money or take it? And I was just like, fuck you, man.
That money's mine.
Farrah Abraham was doing anal on camera while being, while being known as the mom on television.
In a sex swing, Kevin.
People rarely use sex swings.
I know.
And anal with James Dean, which is like no joke.
You've got to take a beating if you fuck James Dean. But I think maybe
he could throw Farrah as my
honorable
mention. But I just think for sheer
villainry, Johnny
Bananas, that move. And I mean,
he's like the Barry Bonds
of reality TV. He won, I think,
six championships
and every time had the bullseye on his back
and he still just got the job done
every time uh so as far as true villains it's gotta go i gotta go johnny bananas see that kind
of has me thinking by the way i just feel like cars aren't allowed on the streets technically
and just watching delivery guys outside pedal is i mean is – if you're ordering food now, I don't have a problem with it.
I would say that you have to give a two-hour window for delivery,
and you have to give, like, almost a 100% tip.
Yeah.
But you can do it.
I mean, this is – like, people get mad sometimes,
but it's like technically this is the time or delivery you wanted and needed the most.
But no complaining.
It might be cold.
It might be wrong.
It might take half a day to get to you and you have to double get to pay like at least your meal.
But I think you can order this.
What do you think?
I think you can order, but I think you're also spot on.
I was going to say a 50% tip because guess what?
Every time you order food now,
it's about a hundred bucks.
Yeah,
you're right.
But I mean,
that is a lot,
but this one,
if you,
if you order during the peak,
it's going to be real bad.
Making people go through two feet of snow to deliver your fucking like two
slices of pizza is a real,
it's real,
real.
Like I haven't had a car that wasn't a fucking plow go by and i'm just regularly seeing dudes riding bicycles
it is absurd um but the uh see so my my two i have right now are uh you know what i'm gonna we're gonna workshop this okay it's gonna be uh ct
who i don't think is a villain because he's so beloved but he was kind of villainous yes on the
show i i think everyone liked him as a villain it's almost like tom brady s where it's like
he's a guy who should be detestable because all he does is win his way and everyone loves him and that was a villain because a he was unstoppable b he had the accent and he talked like a lot of
shit but he was he was actually like a teddy bear like a nice guy and then he had the whole love
story with dm and when she got sick and died and like it was like you can't say anything bad about
ct at that
point he became like this he was like the most romantic guy in the world but yeah i i with with
the little asterisk to like clarify your your definition of villain i think you can you can
make that call but it's not like it's not a villain like some of these other assholes we're
talking about okay so then you i forgot the DM thing.
So I'm going to go with my option B, which is Jose Canseco.
Big time.
Got to be the biggest villain in like pro sports, right?
Maybe like Ty Cobb.
You ever hear that story about Ty Cobb where he like stomped to death on a guy who had Down syndrome?
Yeah, yep, yep. Let me pull that one up. be like stomped to death on a guy who had Down syndrome? Yeah.
Yep.
Yep. Let me pull that one up.
That's either real or an urban legend, but it's definitely a story.
Yeah.
103 years ago, Ty Cobb attacked a fan.
That was a chick apparently though.
Jesus.
I mean, look at this.
I just Googled Ty Cobb stomped to death.
There was, um, hang on there that I think I found the one I was talking about, but there's
Ty Cobb attacked a fan and began choking her. Uh, he might've killed her, had, uh, a catcher,
knocked Ty Cobb out cold. Um, he there's another one, another link that said, uh, quote,
he was afraid I might get killed. Then there was, did Ty Cobb kill a drifter in 1912? Uh,
where he allegedly bragged about beating a man to death, but hang on, this is the one because
I believe he stomped on him with, uh, with cleats on. So he was a real, a real, a real class act.
As Cobb began beating and stomping the man with those razor sharp cleats,
a crew of his teammates held him at bay.
So this was a heckler named Claude Locker was yelling at him in the, in the, in the, uh, in the stands. And he,
it was the, uh, the groundskeeper's wife began intervening and that's when he choked her.
Um, yeah, but he, he stomped on this dude and like almost killed him.
That reminds me of one of the all time tweets we got, I believe on Friday, from Bob Ryan. Wait, real quick.
This is what it was.
He didn't have hands.
He was beating up a guy who didn't have hands.
He had lost his hands and his feet in an industrial accident.
And they were yelling, Cobb, that man has no hands.
And he says, I don't care if you don't got feet.
And he went on beating the like beating the
shit out until he almost died till a cop came and uh stopped him yeah what did bob ryan tweet
it was something like like like crazy like hitler references or something right not quite
hitler references but close um hey kurt what hall of famer said 12 sw 12 Swiss Jewish bankers ruled the world, that the last eight U.S. presidents were traitors,
and AIDS was hatched in a Maryland lab in order to kill gays and blacks,
and still got 95.82% of the vote?
Answer, Steve Carlton.
P.S. I voted for him and you.
You do, yeah.
Jesus.
Is it insane? I actually do i i do believe kurt jones should
be in the hall of fame i think if he was nicer he would have been i don't know about a first
ballot but i mean mucina was a first ballot right no no no i don't think so he wasn't but he like
i mean kurt schilling's better than mike muc. That's just a fucking fact. Oh, yeah. I mean, he – Curt Schilling was awesome.
And had he been nice to also have the bloody sock, the break, the curse,
Yankees red socks.
But, I mean, the Randy Johnson-Curt Schilling duo in Arizona is, like,
arguably the greatest one-two combo maybe ever.
Like, they just won all four games of that World Series.
It was just like – I mean, I think their other –
Didn't Randy Johnson pitch in three?
Yeah, he pitched one, four, and seven.
I mean, that was the worst.
Like, that was so unfair.
I think Curt Schilling started game seven,
and then Randy Johnson came out of the pen.
It's like, oh, fuck.
But I think their number three starter was like Miguel Contreras,
Miguel Ontario, something like that, who just, like, sucked.
And it was just like, you're here to give them a day-long break.
And then they will pitch again tomorrow.
That's it.
It's crazy.
But, yeah, I mean, I agree.
I think you should be in there.
But, boy, Bob Ryan. Bob Ryan is letting it rip. Just really bragging. it it's crazy um but yeah i i mean i agree i think you should be in there but boy bob ryan
bob ryan is letting it rip just just really bragging like and i do get that in the mlb it
is the one hall of fame i believe that does have the character clause yeah yeah i think it's rather
insane to have that i kind of come around on all this like should they overhaul all of it yes i think
that there should only be i think it gets about one time and one time only you know if you're not
a hall of famer in the first year why are you a hall of famer on the 10th year i think that it
should be uh either like totally anonymous where you can't get any glory one way or the other or
completely public like one or the other uh this is in between thing
doesn't work a lot of it you know if you really want to get down to like the right having the
museum represents the best players but i think i've now come around on all the chaos i think i
love it i think i love it there's a character clause i think that i love that some people are
old assholes who like to fuck people over i love that there's a character clause. I think that I love that some people are old assholes who like to fuck people over.
I love that there's storylines and narratives and like, and, and personal grudges.
Cause I don't know.
I don't give a, I think the rest of the hall of fames are completely boring.
It's just like, yeah, he's in cause he's good.
The NBA is great.
Like the NBA is one where I just, I just, every, every single person is it.
Everybody's in.
It's like, I don't know, like Chauncey Billups.
Yeah, you're a Hall of Famer.
Like the gorilla fucking the Suns mascot.
Sure, you're in.
People say that with fucking Dwight Howard,
where he's like a no-brainer Hall of Famer.
A lock.
Like a lock.
Like he won defensive player of the year twice.
What the fuck?
That's all.
That's what he's trying forever. He averaged like 15 rebounds a game like
a double double for like a million years all these all these numbers that are like almost like
baseball escorts like oh yeah if you get 3 000 hits like you're in yeah and it's like yeah man
he fucking sucks like like he's a cancer that people don't want and he's a lock for the hall
of fame sucks i think it's stunning that ph that Phillip Rivers is considered a no-brainer
Hall of Famer.
Yeah.
I don't have a problem with Phillip Rivers.
Phillip Rivers was a very nice player his whole time.
But also, Phillip Rivers regularly had to play two no-doubt Hall of Famers,
and it was clear that he could just never get through.
He never overcame them.
Yeah.
If you regularly cannot beat the guys who are the Hall of Famers,
the Bradys and the fucking Mannings, you cannot beat them,
then you're not in the same class as them.
Right.
But I guess that's where the, you know, the way the NFL does it is like,
we didn't say you have to be the best.
You don't have to beat those guys.
You just got to be like in the same discussion, I guess.
That's why baseball is kind of fun.
Baseball is like stupid, but at least it's like reality TV.
It's like, you know, you become a villain when you vote for nobody
and send in your ballot blank and shit like that.
I actually, I do agree with you on that too.
It is stupid, but it's something to argue about.
That's fine.
Yeah, it's a reality TV storyline.
All right, so that's our top fives.
I think I also – I think one that people are going to say we missed is Johnny Fairplay was a survivor icon.
You don't have to – just Google him real quick, John, and take one look at him, and you will understand without knowing anything else i've been richard
hatch right yeah and that guy was on my list too richard hatch that was the one guy who i think
like back when everybody first tuned into survivor because it was like that hot shit uh richard hatch
won and uh i think he was the was he the first winner yeah yeah very first that was the one
season i watched like that was that there are very few shows who have ever
taken the world by storm like that i was at a friend's like like his parents or his mom hosted
like a survivor night and that was it was like a big party to see who won the final the finale
who then built a house in newport rhode island and then got caught with tax evasion, I believe?
John, John, he didn't pay taxes on his TV, like his winning money and some of his income.
Guess how long he was sentenced to prison.
I don't know which way to go.
I don't know if it's going to be six hours or six years.
51 months.
Almost five years in prison for tax evasion.
That's crazy.
Tax evasion, I feel
like usually is like, give us
the money back and you get
10 months probation.
Also,
tax evasion on a million dollars.
It also
said other income, so maybe he was doing
it forever.
There are people who do
violent crimes.
What's his name who killed a guy in the NFL?
Dante Stallworth, is it?
The guy who didn't do
any prison time. Dante Stallworth's my boy,
so let's not
really yeah well your boy killed somebody right we follow each other on twitter we like each other's
tweets a lot so let's let's leave dante out of this please isn't it so funny how that that does
like like oh he follows me i'll like defend him on this one every every time he likes to tweet
i'm like well i fucking died for this guy guess what guess what you might you might die for him
because he might kill you because he's a murderer crazy all right so tweet out as your top five villains and uh keep an eye on surviving barstool
this week because there might be some new entries into uh into the the top five here so surviving
barstool has a chance to uh make a name for itself so get us with those top fives and let's get into
voicemails now.
We also have on our show today, it is February,
so we do have a guest on, got Jake Owen,
who is, Jake Owen is you and I,

musical act and like you know what i mean he's so fucking normal and kind of like oh i don't think i
should be here like why why do i get to like go do this and be here and play at this course and

Voicemails, let's go, Nicky.
In that ad read, I just bought tickets for Tuesday
and I've drawn $40 million.
It's that easy.
Let's do it.
What's up, KFC Fights BC?
So I'm knee-deep in this GameStop situation,
but I also have an interest.
I like to do writing.
I wrote a couple of shitty screenplays.
So my thought is I can't wait until this movie comes out,
and my instinct goes to the hedge fund manager
of whoever that is, Melvinvin capital there's obviously a bad guy
my question to you guys is who plays the bad guy hedge fund manager in the movie who would be your
perfect role to fit that thanks viva um real quick just say a little birdie told me that like there
there will be a GameStop movie.
It's already like in the works.
Yeah.
It's,
I'm sure they'll actually,
they'll probably be multiple.
It's probably going to be a race to who gets to film it first.
But as I understand,
it's not Adam McKay.
Is it Fincher?
Is it David Fincher?
Oh,
wow.
That'd be awesome.
It is.
It was,
what I saw was,
I didn't know it was already public i was
hearing like whispers of it i thought it was all kind of uh uh on the low still let me let
me double check this real quick that actually makes me nervous that it's not going to be good
like i think there is a good story to tell here i don't quite know if it's movie worthy
i think it was like one minute man worthy where i just kind of like wrapped it up and summed it up
but i'm sure if you can build some storylines and whatnot uh you can tell it but um i don't know if it's quite
you know hollywood level it is uh fuck i can't find it right now um here it is yeah it is from
the guy behind 21 which i love i think 21 is a great movie yeah and the social network um
social network is why i thought david fincher uh but he directed it i don't know if he was 21, which I love. I think 21 is a great movie. And the Social Network.
Social Network is why I thought David Fincher, but he
directed it. I don't know if he was the guy technically behind it.
Merzik is his name.
Ben Merzik, New York Times bestselling author.
He wrote...
You got legit movie makers
who do have knowledge of it.
Could be. Could be legit. so let's cast the movie.
So who, also, by the way, it's been very funny. I don't know if you filed,
excuse me, follow Brian Koppelman on Twitter. Yeah.
But he's the guy, he writes billions. Yeah.
And he is not interested in this,
but everyone keeps tweeting like it's got to be an episode
it's got to be a storyline and he's like
I don't fucking want to do it
he's quote tweeting everyone
being like oh good idea no one's pitched this
to me yet like for like a
week straight it's just been him telling everyone to go
fuck themselves I know he was on PMT
last week I don't know if he
expressed a similar sentiment I imagine he did but yeah he's like. I don't know if he expressed a similar sentiment. I imagine he did.
But yeah, he's like, yeah, it's not going to be on Billions.
But it does seem like it's going to be a movie.
And I think, so having no knowledge of what the Melvin Capital guy looks like,
I would say, god damn.
I mean, I think you've got to play it from the angle of like we're talking like he he's
gonna be the the greedy sniveling hedge fund owner who gets fucked right and like and the
little man takes him down so it's gotta be like someone you want to root against right
like so it's gotta be like a hateable face someone who like who like, who, you know, they're, they're, you know, like there are certain guys who just have faces that you hate.
I mean, people say that about me all the time.
People say they have a punchable face. They want to punch me.
I think that people say, yeah, they want to, I think they just don't like me.
So they want to punch me in the face.
I think my face is all that punchable because I think there are some things
that are inherently like Ray Donovan. What's name is that Liev Schreiber yeah he looks scary to me like he looks like a an ominous
dude like at all times I don't know if it's the eyes or what but he always looks like do not fuck
with that guy he doesn't he's not like a warm and inviting face you know some people just have villain looks oh um uh uh he's got the voice
to it to go with it too um fuck what's his name he plays the bad guy in die hard with a vengeance
like the he's got like that that german type of accent what's his fucking name hang on i'll find him my heart with a vengeance which one is that it's the um the gold yeah yeah and he plays hans gruber's older brother this dude
simon gruber who's the actor um this guy is just like a he's i think he always is the villain he's
he's uh he's got the voice and the look to it.
Jeremy Irons.
I mean, this guy is – he is just mean.
Yeah, like he can't play – he can't be like the nice, warm, fuzzy guy.
He's got to be either the villain or like the don't fuck with me guy.
But this has to be more you know like i think i'm
picturing it being like a sloppy fat guy who's like eating lobster and drowning in champagne
because he's just better than you and then he gets fucked by reddit and it's like yes this feels so
good okay so now i'm going in a slightly different direction and again having no knowledge of what this person looks like
i'm going with maher shalali because representation matters kevin and oh god and fat rich white men
have been getting the brunt of this for far too long and it's time for just a handsome black guy
to be the villain oh that'll go over real well. We're going to cast the most hated villain in the world.
Let's choose now to make the black guy.
Yeah, yeah, that'll be great.
That's fucking funny.
Sometimes you have to realize that the bad guy can be black.
That's never the case.
We never,
we never bought eyes to black people ever.
That's,
that's one of my favorite episodes in 30 rock is that Tracy Jordan realizes
that he's like,
that they're coming back around in,
in making black people,
the bad guy.
Yeah.
Like,
he's like, I saw a commercial the other day for a home
burglary system and the guy
breaking in the house was a black guy.
It's progress.
That's progress. We did it.
We can accuse you
of crimes again. Yeah.
I was watching Law and Order
and the judge was white.
Okay.
I will go – I think, like, biggest – when I think of villain now,
I think of Christopher Waltz in Glorious Bastards.
Very good one.
And I think he could also play, like, the affluent guy very well too.
So if he was, you know, the big finance hotshot,
thinks he's smarter than you, and then you take down Christopher Waltz,
that's going to be a satisfying moment.
I believe it's Christoph Waltz, right?
Christoph, okay.
Yeah.
Which makes him even more villainous.
Yeah, Christoph.
You don't even know.
Does he do –
What are you, fucking disney cartoon
kristoff seriously does he do movies without the accent like can he do other accents that's
i'm sure he can i don't know if he's ever had any major roles like that he's a really good actor so
i'd bet he can do accents well but i feel like he'd have i don't think he could have the accent
for this i think he's got to be like an American sloppy, you know,
like a powerful, rich American.
He can't have that accent.
Yeah, you've got – and not only like you don't have –
you can't have an American accent.
You have to have a Northeast accent.
Yeah, yeah.
It's got to be like –
If you have a Southern accent, people are like,
he's too dumb to be able to pull off something like this.
You can't be a hedge fund manager and have that twang.
You're just a moron. It's a stereotype
and I apologize for it, but it wouldn't be
believable. No, it really wouldn't.
It sounds like he's from Alabama. Bullshit.
New York asshole to pull this off.
Next up.
Alright, I got an M.I.B. asshole for you.
So I sat down to have
some Oreos and milk.
I put a glass of milk.
But to have my first Oreo, my girlfriend comes in the room.
She says, take an Oreo, dip it into the milk before I've had a chance to even have one.
Take a bite, dip it in.
Take another bite, dip it in.
And then dip one more time.
So she took three bites out of the cookie, triple dipped into someone else's mouth.
Am I the asshole for being mad about that?
I think you're an asshole.
I don't worry.
I'm not concerned about double dipping
and triple dipping and all that stuff.
I think you're an asshole
if you can dip one Oreo cookie three times.
That's, what are you are you a fucking like a little
little chipmunk nibbling on a single cookie what is that that doesn't make any sense that third dip
you're holding like a crumb you have to like put your whole hand in there to soak it you dip half
and then you eat whole i go i i like i'll go like%. I really like my dip on. The other day I actually put my – a fork, a knife through the cream,
and I just held it in.
All great moves.
Oh, fantastic.
Fantastic moves.
Some people were like, what do you do with a knife?
I was like, you buffoons.
You fucking simpletons.
So I like – and I like to pull it right before it's about to crumble.
I like it to really be soaked.
I don't like there to be much crunch left.
But you can't do three.
Girls are so weird with that, you know.
Girls will take a bite out of a donut hole.
Girls will take a bite out of like a, you know, a mini-sized candy bar.
These are individual bites, girls.
Come on.
It's actually very funny you mention this.
I don't know if you noticed, but earlier I was eating an English muffin.
Yeah.
And my girlfriend had asked me, if I make an English muffin, would you have half?
And I was like, yeah.
It'll take me one bite.
Sure.
That's basically saying, do you want a bite of my english muffin not like do you want to have this thing very it's
not something i have to plan for it's not like well i don't know i just ate i can eat a fucking
english muffin whether i want it or not even if i'm totally full and you were like hey can you
just eat this so i don't have to like throw it out i'd be okay just throw it you're basically
using me as the garbage can.
You can throw out your half of an English muffin into my belly.
Girls.
It is crazy.
Whoa.
You need that?
Well, I don't need it, but if you need to get rid of it, I can fucking deal with it.
English muffins are super underrated.
What's that?
English muffins are super underrated.
Dude, not only are they super underrated what's that english muffins are super underrated dude not only are they
super underrated so my brother's girlfriend's mom makes jams yeah he makes a hot pepper jam
that is unbelievable and i just slather that on any any carb in the area i'll slap that on a
fucking cardboard box and eat it but you get those nooks and crannies going.
Some butter, some jelly,
some peanut butter if you're so
inclined. But man,
English muffins, when they're toasted
perfect, split perfect.
One thing we learned
today in the making of these English muffins,
do you know it takes much longer to cook
or to toast a whole wheat English muffin
than it does a regular?
Why that?
Why is that?
I don't know.
Science.
Yeah.
Oh,
you want to know another science thing that's crazy I read today?
Hit me.
Yesterday?
The best way to warm up rice in a microwave,
which I don't have because it's been six months since I lived in this apartment and I just still have not gotten my microwave
fixed because it just never worked but anyway that's not neither here nor there um the best
way to warm up rice you put an ice cube on top of it and you put it in the microwave and guess what
the ice cube doesn't help
you put an ice cube on top of your rice,
like in a bowl or like in the bag still, what are we talking?
As I said, I do not have a microwave, so I couldn't test this.
I think this is impossible.
I do not think you can put an ice cube in a microwave,
no matter what you're microwaving with it,
and have it not melt.
Impossible.
I'm trying to figure it out.
Okay, so – all right.
We might have to cut this for a second because – actually, no, we're not. Because I just Googled rice in the microwave,
and one of the autofills was rice in the microwave song.
And I was like, well, I got to hear what that is. And it's actually travis tritt it's a great day to be alive which is a fire song
and i forgot that the opening lyric of it is i got rice cooking in the microwave
three day beard i don't plan to shave just a good song that's all just a quick aside okay so this is okay hang on this is why
it's hard for me to find fucking results because it's a brand new revelation january 25th 2021
is when this article was written and it said whoa can this ice cube hack i added whoa i don't know
why can this ice cube hack make day-old rice taste good leftovers are a mixed bag while some would
argue that pizza tastes better after spending the night in the fridge there are other foods we don't know as
well we all know french fries might as well go straight in the trash but the good news is you
don't need to be some kind of culinary sorcerer to bring back day-old rice from the dead in fact
as yet another invaluable tiktok lesson shows you really just need an ice cube and a microwave in
the video calorie queen 14 lets us in on a surprising microwave secret
that seems to work surprisingly well. Stick an ice cube or two with some of your rice you want
to reheat. After a minute in the microwave, that'll reintroduce the moisture to the rice
and make it as good as if it just came out of the pot. The fact that this hack works isn't
the craziest part about it either. What's truly wild is that even after a minute or more in the microwave sitting above that plate of rice the ice cube will be almost entirely
intact apparently it has to do with the fact that the hydrogen bonds in ice somehow function in a
way that blocks water molecules from being affected by the energy of the microwave so
instead of melting the ice somehow functions to steam the rice that sits above chemistry at work i have no words
like a magician would pull this trick where it's obviously not magic it's it's science but you'd be
like i bet you one million dollars i can put this ice cube in that microwave for a minute
and it won't melt. And you'd be like, okay, yeah, I'll take the bet.
Like it's like,
I know what microwaves do they heat things up. So sure.
That's, that's, what's crazy. Like, that's how, you know, it's,
it's not just like hot things make cold things melt. It's like,
you got to realize that it's chemically changing the, the, you know, you know the composition but like i remember the first time my dad used to say this all the time
my dad never shut the fuck up about it saying that um like heat is or like air conditioning
is not like you're not making it cold you're taking the heat out sort of thing like it's like
you know you just got to think of it like the reverse way.
Obviously you didn't do too good of a job teaching me.
Cause I can't really remember what it is, but it's just things that like my brain. Oh, my dad, the other day,
I guess my dad listened to an episode the other day.
And at some point recently you said that Cincinnati is heaven.
You love Cincinnati.
No, I said the opposite. I said that it was when I was asking if like,
what if we're just happy and we have a misguided sense of right.
Right.
Well,
if you get to heaven,
you have this image of it and it's like,
Oh,
it's just fucking Cincinnati.
He told me that like right across the way from Cincinnati is a town called
Covington where I guess like it's where the players play.
And he,
he talked about Covington as if it was like this pleasure island like you know this
hedonistic world where like anything goes but it was funny i i really don't know what exactly goes
on in covington but he said that it was like the late 70s i think he had just got married to my mom
and um there was like a work thing that he was supposed to be at but wasn't and like i guess they called like the house
and the guy's like clancy you gotta get here dude you should see the girls it's like amateur
night at the clubs it's like ladies night at the bar there's this there's that like we're
missing you man and my mom was on the phone she's like i think this is for you
the guy had just started ripping yelling it not realizing that my mom was the one who picked up
and my dad's like yeah i've been i've been paying for that one for the last 35 years
i didn't even go but i had been on like five of them in a row so i guess
it's great last voicemail what we got next look kc fights uh shout out bc miss you nick jackie everybody uh it's mike from philly i got
a little bit of a would you rather so we were talking uh my wife and i the other day about
would you rather have the bottom part of your pants always wet? So it doesn't matter if it's khakis or shorts or jeans or whatever the hell it is.
So would you rather have them wet at all times?
Or when you put a jacket on with a long-sleeved shirt, the sleeve rolls up permanently.
So you either got to walk around that way with your shirt.
Stop the fight. Stop the fight.
Stop the fight.
Nothing worse than your sleeve getting rolled up in your jacket.
The bottom of the jeans is tough.
I think the bottom of the jeans is one more from, like, our childhood.
I feel like we used to wear, like, baggy jeans that couldn't even get wet.
And then that would just, yeah that that sucked too that's one of my favorite
um uh daniel tosh jokes is when he talks about uh he's like you ever gotten like your jeans or
socks wet he's like it immediately makes you really level with the people at katrina where
you're like boy this is how they've been walking around this is awful but i'm completely with you because i have i have jackets and sweatshirts that i won't wear
to get i just know i'm like i cannot put this on while wearing this so it doesn't work the
greatest struggle for me is the uh the the moon man like sherpa robe jacket thingy is like it's
like a jacket it's like thick so you really should
almost wear that when it can be your outdoor jacket but if you try to get that thing on while
you're wearing like a ski jacket as well almost impossible any anything that's got some bulk to it
uh and also depends on what the inside of your jacket is that's why i like when jackets kind of
have that like silky smooth type of uh inside because
you can slide with it but you gotta you gotta do that you gotta grab the sleeve as you pull through
you know i'm trying to teach my kids that now they don't understand that at all so they just
get stuck all the time but when you when you gotta hold them and pull it through you're pulling out
the bottom oh my god that is the worst the i have it's my it's actually i've stopped just
wearing the sweatshirt all together because it's either summer and i don't need a sweatshirt or
it's winter and i can't wear but my easy sweatshirt the one i got actually at bodega during uh
the wilbur show yeah we went we did like a little video there i don't think we ever did anything
yeah um but the i bought azy sweatshirt there, and
you cannot wear anything over it.
It just can't be...
Yes, I've tried the
fucking...
It's not really a secret. Everyone knows.
You grab the sleeve.
It still doesn't matter. I cannot do
anything in that sweatshirt. It is impossible
to fucking wear.
It just doesn't work. It is impossible to fucking wear. And like, it just
doesn't
work. It's like wearing a fucking...
Well, no one
else on planet Earth is going
to be able to relate to this.
It's like wearing a pair of small underpants.
And it's just...
There's
nobody else on the planet that subjects
themselves to that at all
it's like when I wear my small underpants
and it's just the entire
day it just doesn't fit
right
and I can't do anything about it
that's what it's like wearing an easy sweatshirt
so you all get that
I wonder
I mean I'm sure that there are
you know there's been somebody out there
who has worn a size small underpants before.
I wonder if there's...
Well, I weighed, I think, 218, I think.
Yeah.
I still weigh 218 pounds.
You maybe, maybe could find someone who in a jam once wore small underpants clocking in a 220.
Probably not, but maybe.
But you certainly, I don't think you could
find a single person who does it consistently i think you might be a true one of a kind like
you're the only person in the world who has done that more than once more than like five times
consistently if it's monthly yeah like how many times total oh like two years worth three years i was gonna say four yeah so
you've done that almost 50 times yeah that's that's that's you know but one time somebody
was in a jam and they wore it because they had to i would imagine most people would just go like
commando in that case but okay one time it happens then all of a sudden they you know they find
themselves in that same jam a month later they're like fuck i did it again i got no clean underwear all right one more time and then that's
it certainly nobody goes on to do it 48 more times i mean just just appalling john it is it is it is
not great it is all right let's do jake uh jake owen now just a hell of a guy i explained this right off the top
in our in this interview but the first time we talked to jake i didn't know he was a cool cat
i remember getting mad foreplay went viral the phil mickelson story and i was like oh man we
could have we could have chopped it up for real so we got we got a real lucky yet talented dude who's just like happy to be there
and uh anybody's willing to just drop a quick 100k and anybody who's willing to just like go
out and play golf with trent and frankie and rings and lurch just like yeah fuck it why not
uh gotta be one of the more down-to-earth true true common man you know that's a real common man
that's that that's how you do common man right so jake owen is brought to you by miller light
uh which is very fitting because jake owen is the type of guy that you want to kick back
and uh and have a cold one with and with the big game rapidly approaching you got to make sure
that you have enough miller light and enough friends all lined up for Sunday to enjoy the big game.
So what Miller Lite has done is they're giving away beer during the big game, but you've got to earn it.
So they're making you head over to this specific website, which is preposterously long. So, I mean, like really long.
Like really, really long.
So I'm going to read it to you.
If you go to this website, you can win free beer during the big game.
Are you ready, John?
I am ready.
And I bet I'm going to win because if it's as long as you say,
I don't know how many people are going to go, but I'm going to go.
So I would imagine I just went.
Get your pen and paper out. Get your memory tricks ready.

light with a guy like jake elwynn let's talk to him yo yo what up how you doing man hey dude sorry
man i apologize i'm yeah like listen if you ever fucking pull this shit again we are
done dude i'll be real honest with you like i for sure thought it was 10 45 and i even called my guy
because i thought it was gonna be late for 10 45 and uh i said dude i'm i'm on my way man i should
be there right at 10 45 he goes dude you're supposed to be here at 10 30 so wait so so did
you just fuck up the time or did you actually have problems with gas, getting gas in the car?
Because that's what we were told.
Well, kind of what happened was I had this really interesting situation.
So I got in my main, like my car, I usually drive day to day.
I got in it today.
The other day I knew I was pushing it a little bit, coming home,
like low on gas.
But I was like, I'll get it the next time I go.
Every time I do that, that's the only time it the next time i go my buddy every time i do that that's the only
time and then the the next morning that like something pops up and it's like oh shit i gotta
go get my kids and i'm like fuck i have like one mile till empty i oh anytime i leave it to the
morning it always fucks me that next morning i yeah well i got up this morning to leave and get
in the car and my dog i have a german shepherd and uh he got in the
garage and he couldn't get out so then he took a shit in front of my this is a whole crazy thing
he took a shit in front of my car my buddy that works at my farm this morning came bless his heart
yet he cleaned it up but he moved my car outside and let it run because it's cold in nashville
he was just letting it run and i got out there to leave and now says zero miles to empty and i'm like and uh sorry guys that's my story i i think that people
who put their gas in their car we talked about this kind of extensively people who regularly
have gas in their car are assholes can't trust them run that shit to the end i got that shit
we got a guy here we got a guy here who doesn't go below half.
He's like, you're crazy if you go below half.
He's like, you never know.
What if the fucking apocalypse hits?
I was like, well, then half a tank of gas is going to fucking matter.
Now is it, man?
My answer with what if the apocalypse hits is always pretty easy.
Well, then I'll die.
Then I'm dead.
I'm okay with the logic behind that.
If the apocalypse is here, I'm dead. Fine. Whatever. What would you do in a zombie? Drive my empty tank die I'm okay with the logic behind that if the apocalypse is here I'm dead fine
whatever what would you do in a zombie just drive my empty tank till I'm dead I don't know whatever
man who fucking cares so last time we talked I don't know if you even remember because uh it was
a pretty forgettable conversation because I feel like when we first talked to you at least I didn't
know the kind of guy you were I just I was like oh yeah well we'll talk about
like music and and whatever and then you go over and talk to foreplay and it was like oh it's
fucked up with Phil Mickelson I was doing this I was doing that and I was like I was like oh I
need another crack at it I want to talk some real shit that that night I went to you did the um
I forget what fucking what venue was that you did like the small concert that we went to, and it was awesome.
It was like the hell of a night.
I forget.
Yeah.
It was at like not a party.
That was a cool spot.
I can't remember the name of that spot.
That was really cool.
It was like a little theater or something like that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was a tiny-ass little theater.
And I swear to God, Jake, you had 14 drinks on stage that night.
You kept being like into the microphone.
You were like, yo, can I get another whiskey Coke up here?
I love it.
I love it.
Yeah.
I'm going to talk liquor right now though a little bit.
I'm off the liquor.
I decided, you know, it's 2021.
I'm going to be, y'all, I'm going to be 40 years old in 215 days.
Oh boy.
You got the days countdown.
19 hours and 46 minutes, 26 seconds.
I mean, you are – so 40 is hitting you hard, huh?
Like the thought of 40.
I don't know.
I just want to like – I have a twin brother, too.
He just walked by here in our office.
We all work together.
And I told him the other day, I'm like, bro, we're about to be 40.
Because that's kind of cool.
I got somebody to like, you know, pawn it off like a little bit.
And I was like, we need to get in shape.
Jared is like, fuck that, pawn it off, like, a little bit. And I was like, we need to get in shape. Jared's like, fuck that, dude.
I'm cool.
This fucking guy is dry for the month.
He's not drinking.
I'm also off the liquor.
Have you had any – has it made you feel even a little bit better?
Yeah, man.
Look at this.
Actually, my girlfriend, it's just sad to say,
gave me this water bottle to drink.
It's pink, obviously.
And look, man, I drink this water.
I'm feeling good.
I just want to – man, it's a big year.
I just want to feel freaking good.
This dude is not saying –
I'm not saying I quit drinking.
I just said for right now.
Well, that's what I was going to – so you totally – you said liquor,
but you meant like everything, or are you still drinking at all?
Dude, I love beer.
Like beer is one of my favorite things. All kinds of beer,
doesn't matter what kind.
I love it all.
But I just, man,
first six months of quarantine
when I came off the road,
I was like, I'm getting jacked.
So when I go back on the road,
I feel good and I'm refreshed
because you get tired out there, man.
You don't eat pizza every night
after the show.
It's just hard.
I got ripped first six months.
Then I came in for a meeting
at the office
and they're like,
by the way, you're not going out at least for another six for a meeting at the office And they're like, by the way
You're not going out at least for another six months
So at that point, I was like
I'm drinking and I'm eating whatever I want
So I kind of got fat the last six months
And now I'm just back at it again
I mean
You're describing exactly my quarantine
Like quarantine started, I was like working out twice a day
I was like, here we go baby, time to seize the moment
And then I was like, oh wait We're doing this for a lot longer that moment never gonna be a year
i kind of got through my boat season i like i was like i felt good i was on the boat like it
was summertime and i'm feeling good i was getting ready to go do some more shows and then they're
like yeah right see at least you're feeling better like i'm i'm right before we started this i was
like i don't even feel first of all i've gained weight i've put on three pounds uh and it's just like i don't feel better
i'm i'm arguably more miserable in the morning i like i hate and i hate everything it is just
i hate it because i had these grand aspirations i thought it was gonna be amazing i was gonna
feel better i was gonna have more fun it's going to be happier. None of this is the case, Jake.
It's all just fucking shit.
I hear you.
Turns out there's a little bit more going on than just booze in your body.
And guess what?
I watched a movie last night hoping to feel good.
Turns out I cried the whole fucking time watching Our Friends.
This is some heavy shit, Our Friends.
What the hell is this all about?
We're doing feel-good movies in quarantine, Jake.
What the hell is this?
Yeah. this all we're trying to do we don't feel good movies in quarantine jake what the hell is this yeah i uh man interestingly enough i learned this about making a film for the first time is that we actually shot that almost going on a couple years ago by the time that it you know by the time that
goes through the festivals and then gets out um it's kind of wild to the timing of it you know
like right now i think yes it is heavy but i think this the movie itself kind of wild too, the timing of it. You know, like right now I think, yes, it is heavy,
but I think the movie itself kind of makes you think like,
dang, man, like am I that person for somebody?
Like would somebody do that for me?
You know, and I think right now.
Jake, I didn't think that for a second, buddy.
I wasn't like maybe someone would want me to live with them
if they were dying of cancer.
I would be the worst.
I would make the argument that I would be the worst possible person to choose to live with you if your wife was dying of cancer.
I would rather just die of cancer than have you be that person for me.
I mean, he's the worst choice in the world.
But I would venture to guess all three of us, not that.
That's a selfless.
You got to be a real special person to do that and do it to be helpful and really make a difference.
And I'm not that guy. No. that was the beauty that was what was cool man about the movie like this
wasn't just like some made-up story you know this is a true this is based off a true story uh the
guy and his wife and she got terminal cancer they had two kids and their buddy dane this guy he was
working at like a sporting goods store uh and they knew him from college and he always was the guy
you know it was just a good friend and he and he said man i'm moving in with you guys to help take care of
all this till the end and be there and uh so it's funny it's funny to laugh about it because i you
know i think that too like who could i be for that somebody but he that dude did that you know and
this is a this is a really great dedication to them and their family and their life and it's
pretty cool i'm i'm very much like dane except for the good attributes like you in this movie not the greatest guy in
the world kind of a dick and and i people would talk about me like you talk about dane where it's
like that guy's still a piece of shit huh like uh oh goldschlager's still around yeah i figured
asshole my buddies they saw that i've had some people say like jake man you're like a nice guy
you know like what was it hard to play that part where you were kind of i mean you kind of came off
like a dick you know and then i got my other buddies that were like do that everybody talks
about acting being hard they're like jake all you had to do is go play yourself
i was watching with my girlfriend last night and she goes, Jake's kind of an asshole. I was like, babe, he's acting.
It's a role.
It's not real.
Jake's a good dude.
Yeah, he's got like the classic 80s villain movie sweater on when you're at dinner.
It was like, oh, that's the guy, like the blonde at the tennis club wears that sweater, which, by the way, I walk.
It's a fire ass sweater.
But I was like, he's just acting.
She's like, no, I think he's just being mean.
You've seen movies right
so your girlfriend got like offended yeah
i thought you said jake was nice he is he's not playing jake right now
do you think there's uh more of this in your future you uh i mean you know you you're killing
the music game i feel like you actually would thrive kind of almost doing what we do.
You've made such an impact with foreplay and making internet waves,
but do you think that acting is a big part of your future to come?
Dude, I don't know, man.
I'm one of these guys that I really honestly feel like I'm just kind of lucky to be here.
You know what I mean?
I'm not any better than anyone else.
I play guitar.
I sing some songs.
I know you said I'm setting the music, like well the music like yeah and then I've had some
hit songs and I work hard I got great people around me but like dude I'm just kind of like
a guy that looks around sometimes it's like how did this happen yeah after all these years and uh
and so yeah that'd be cool if something like else that came about because someone kind of
it floated our way and and uh I didn't like actively pursue it i don't think but i liked it it was cool and and to work
with um dakota johnson and casey uh casey affleck and jason seagull like those they're pros you know
what i mean it was for real yeah and uh it was kind of i related it to i told someone the other
day like they gave me a exemption to playing a web.com event in Nashville
a couple years ago and I shot 86 86 seriously I was like I look like an asshole
but like I was on the like you know just because they allow you in it doesn't mean that you're a
pro right so like I'm sitting on the range watching other guys hit balls like pros do
and they're like watching me you, chunk every third shot I hit.
And it's kind of the same thing.
Like when you go on set with people that are pros and you're just the guy
that they're like, you should be in a movie, even though you're not an actor.
I felt the same way.
So it was cool.
You know what?
As long as you're like a likable dude, I feel like people are okay with that.
Like if you show up and you're like, you know, kind of being a dick or,
you know, you're acting like you're entitled on a movie set.
I feel like people are like, you know, fuck you or you're in the pro-am or whatever this was where you got invited.
And it's like if you act like you're better or on the level with them, they're not going to like you.
But if you seem like a humble dude who knows that you're just lucky to be there, I would imagine people don't have a problem when Jake Owen comes around and like participates in whatever their craft is.
I mean, dude, I hope not. You know, I have moments though. I catch myself all the time. Like my mom always says, it's not what you say, it's how you say it. And like, I'm just like a
very like off the, off the cuff kind of person. Sometimes I say shit and like, it really offends
people. And I didn't even mean to offend them. You know what I mean? And, and so I'm sure I,
I'm sure I've been in like a dick to some people,, man, I really try to be a good dude and, you know, just be me.
You were talking about being around the cast.
Were you at any point – I know you and Gwendolyn Christie
weren't in the same scenes at all.
Were you ever near her, and did you ask her what the hell happened
with Game of Thrones?
I'll be real honest with you.
If I walked past Gwendolyn Christie, I wouldn't know who that was.
I didn't know who that was.
I'll be all really offensive.
And there's a statement that offends.
There you go.
But that's what I'm saying.
I don't mean to be offensive because I'm sure Gwendolyn Christie
walked by me on set, she wouldn't know who I was either.
You know what I mean?
Right.
And maybe because I'm not like – No not no but okay here's the thing what if gwendolyn showed up to like a music event
and didn't know who you were that's kind of more the like this like i actually i love that uh i
wrote a song the other day with this guy he's incredible his name's martin johnson uh he has
a band called the uh the night game and i and, and I got there, I was like, never met this guy.
I didn't know what he did and I heard it and it blew me away.
And I was like,
I'm so not probably worthy to be writing with this dude right now,
but it's kind of one of those things where I think it's more flattering to
people sometimes when you don't come at them with this whole, like,
I know everything about you from what you did. It's kind of,
it's more humbling to be around people and kind of learn as you get to know
them, I think, but that's no disrespect to Gwendolyn Christie. I just, I didn't, I wouldn't, I didn't know. kind of it's more humbling to be around people and kind of learn as you get to know them i think but
that's no disrespect to gwendolyn christie i just i didn't i wouldn't i didn't know i'm not in the
whole film world you know what i mean like i don't even really watch that much i just watched
ozark dude did you watch game of thrones nope oh should i no no you shouldn't it started out
awesome and i'm always like on the go and i don't think like if i have free time i'll grab my guitar Oh, should I? No, you shouldn't. It started out awesome.
I'm always on the go.
If I have free time, I'll grab my guitar and play something.
But I don't sit down.
People tell me that all the time.
It's probably why my mind's always going.
I don't relax.
I just go.
I don't go all the time.
But I did watch Ozark, and I watched Breaking Bad, this quarantine.
Oh, that might be something. I think that show might blow off, dude.
You should check out The Godfather next.
Thanks for catching on.
I mean, that sounds about right.
I feel like that kind of matches your personality,
at least from what I see when, again,
when you make these videos with us and you're on the golf course,
you just seem like you just kind of just fucking live. you don't think about it you just go do it well man look i appreciate you
saying that and i think that's why sometimes like people kind of align well with each other and
you're right i remember when i came in uh to barstool the for the first time and like met
all you guys and um did that and then it kind of like blew up and all i was really doing was
telling an honest story about me kind of being
a jackass at a wedding, drinking too much to a guy like Phil.
But Phil being the cool guy he was like played along with it. He wasn't,
he wasn't, he didn't act like, like he was offended, you know,
he played along and it was cool.
And the way that you guys are to your listeners and everybody out there,
I think that's why it's real. And what you're doing for,
for the Barstool Fund,
that's incredible, man, what you guys are doing.
It's a big number.
And we talked, I'm not, say what?
It's a big number we've got going.
Dave's got going.
I mean, that's a, $30 million is a fucking staggering number
that they raise.
It's crazy.
Well, dude, we, you guys so many times,
like not just even with my charity events and things,
Barstool has been so incredible.
You guys have sold T-shirts with song titles of mine on it
that literally has generated incredible amounts of money for our foundation.
Anyways, I wanted to throw this out there today because we wanted to tell everybody,
but we're happy.
We want to donate $100,000 to the J-Fund Foundation.
That's amazing so we uh and i bring that up at a time just to let
you guys know like dude thanks for saying what you said about me like being a normal dude that
kind of goes along but y'all need that people need to tell you the same things like i'm sure
my mom watches and she's like they do say fuck a lot you know but i'm like mom like people just
sometimes let that fly like it just doesn't they're not people my point is like you are the everyday guys that like relate to the everyday people
and and that's all I try to do with my music and try to do at my shows and I think that's
hopefully what we all should do as citizens of this great country man just fucking be real you
know and be nice to people and be cool and take care of others and like that's just kind of what
it's about you know so I'm proud of you guys too that's very nice of you to say we're regular guys we didn't need the
reminder i'm well you might and we're good if actually you could remind us that we're a little
bit special yeah dude though that's that's seriously awesome thank you that's so generous
it goes such a long way and uh i'm sure people are going to appreciate it.
I mean, you can really tell who stepped up and who's involved,
and it's not usually like a surprise.
It's usually the people that are like, yeah, I thought that guy was a good guy.
I thought she would contribute.
And so just kind of proving yourself right there,
like proving what we already know about you.
So thanks a lot for that.
I really appreciate it.
Yeah, man, we're happy to do it.
This is an incredible thing that y'all are doing,
and we're proud to be a part of it.
So the movie, like John said, is, you know, it's heavy.
It's a tearjerker at times.
You're actually involved in my favorite line in the movie
when Casey Affleck tells you he's going to punch you in the face.
That was, that's like, I feel like everyone's got that friend where your wife's name is Charlotte, right?
And you're being kind of a dick to Casey Affleck, and he's like,
listen, man, I'm giving you a pass.
You're married to Charlotte, and I like Charlotte.
But if you guys ever split up, let me know.
I'll drive over to your house and punch you in the face.
It's like everybody –
Everybody knows that guy.
I like your significant other. i don't care for you
very much and that's when i read that script it was uh i i realized with this being my first kind
of film i thought man am i really supposed to play the guy that nobody likes you know
and uh yeah that's really what it was i'm like the insensitive asshole friend that everybody
just kind of they'll get a pass like he says in the film like just because they happen to be with someone else but i got lots of friends you know people
like they don't even want to hang around certain people because of their like girlfriend or
boyfriend or wife or husband you know so that's i was kind of that guy in the film i've dated that
person yeah i've been like the uh john's gonna be my girlfriend never mind you you've probably
also been that person oh i'm constantly that no yeah you you're you're
not that person but i think well i i would say i think all of us have probably been in that spot
have you ever been the guy who like when you get out of the relationship you're like oh boy that
that chick was a real dud and like all my friends hated her yeah we all have i think everybody has
it's so funny how much you get like either you're blind to it
totally or you're just lying to yourself about it but then when you get on the outside you're like
oh yeah she sucks what was i doing it's funny though why sometimes and it's your real friends
that will just be real even though they know they're gonna make you mad but like no one ever
tells you either until after the fact and you're like how are you yeah you could have just told me
well i we have a pretty like steadfast rule here like to not get involved with other people's shit
because it seems like you know yeah man he's miserable with her and like she sucks but who
knows what goes on behind closed doors or maybe he deserves it whatever i had one friend in my
life who like is the only guy i think i would ever really step up and say anything to
and i like took him out for a drink and i was it was awkward i was like we got to go out and like
talk and have a beer he was like the fuck are you talking about you know we like sit we like sit
down in the booth and i was like just gotta let you know yeah basically i was like i just gotta
let you know you know a lot of us kind of think this way and uh you know i don't think it's a
good idea whatever and he was just like appreciate the, like, I'm in love with her.
And, yeah, like, there's a couple things we've got to work on.
We're going to make it work.
And I was like, okay, well, all right, like, another round.
You know what I mean?
Like, I did my part.
I said what I got to say.
You told me, like, fuck off.
And okay.
But I'm – and then, you know, inevitably it crashed and burned.
And I always remind him I was right.
Are you still together?
Yeah, no, no, no, no.
She left him on
christmas eve so she literally left she left the ring on the bed and was gone and it was christmas
eve so to say that i was right is a gross understatement kevin reminds him every morning
he's got a scheduled text that goes out at 6 45 just so you know i was right i just i just sent
a text like hey man is the ring on your bed today and so he knows but you know i was like all right we i did my part and if you want to tell me to fuck off i'm all
good but it is funny how much like sometimes people don't say things and if they do then it
gets awkward it's a dicey world out there man yep where'd you guys film this were you again
it looked like i know it takes place in bama but where where'd you guys film it fairhope alabama
which is actually a really cool place.
I've traveled all over and I've never been to Fairhope.
It's just on the other side of the bay from Mobile, Alabama.
So it's a really beautiful, small little town.
It's where they're actually –
I was going to say, it's where they are, right?
It's where they live, yeah.
I've only been to Bama once, and there's nothing there.
I feel like you're
probably a bama well you're a florida guy and the only time i've been to bama i was i went to fsu
too i was driving yeah i would i wouldn't i was there i only went there for two years i didn't
graduate from anywhere um but i went yeah fucking degree uh look at me now What year were you there?
I was there 07-08
Probably
Something like that
I was
I was in Pike
No big deal
Whatever
Yeah
Big frat house
You were in Pike?
My best buddy Ando
That manages me
That we went to college together
He
He was in Pike
There
At Florida State
What was it called?
The strongest frat in America
It is It is Everyone there is a fucking Beefcake And Yeah He was a pike there at Florida State. What was it called? The Strongest Frat in America or something?
It is.
Everyone there is a fucking beefcake.
Yeah.
Was their house still on the corner there?
Like right there on the corner?
Of Heritage Grove.
Yeah.
I believe it's still the biggest frat house in the country.
Were you a beefcake back then?
Dude.
Back then?
What is that right now, man?
I was.
If I had to put who I was in that fraternity,
I was fucking Vinny Guadagino from Jersey Shore,
where I showed up fat, and then everyone was jacked,
and I tried to get in, and I just looked weird.
Did a couple steroids steroids did a couple cycles
he's trying but it's really
not working for him
that was great
I didn't know that
I was driving from FSU to Mardi Gras
we went through Bama
and we were in like
what's the movie
with all the backwoods and the rednecks?
Deliverance?
Deliverance, yeah.
And we were driving in my buddy's like Volkswagen.
And the fucking drive shaft popped down.
And we were just dragging it.
And so we had to get off the highway in Bama in the middle of nowhere.
You got raped, didn't you?
And we pulled off to like this gas station.
And this dude comes out
and he's just like i ain't making a drive shaft dragging and we're like what happens if we keep
driving and he goes he like takes like a pen to show us he's like well might could get stuck and
then boom car flips over and we're like five hours six hours out of mardi gras
and we go yeah we'll just risk it and we drove the whole fucking way the entire time being like
guys we might just flip this fucking car and die at any moment colossally stupid didn't got there
had a hell of a time are you a car guy i am yeah i am a car guy so so we did we had a hell of a time. Are you a car guy? I am. Yeah, I am a car guy.
So we had a question once.
We did like an argument, like a debate show once.
And the final question was, would you rather be a country star who drives, who doesn't know how to drive a stick, like doesn't know about cars, or a rock star who doesn't trash hotel rooms, who's just like a proper nice, clean guy?
Which do you think is less authentic,
if you're a country guy who doesn't know cars,
or if you're a rock star who doesn't live hard?
Great question.
Yeah, I had to argue.
I chose to argue.
See, I think you can be a country star and not be a car guy,
and it's not the end of the world.
I feel like part of being a rock star is, like, you leave, like,
destruction in your wake everywhere you go.
Yeah, I kind of agree with you.
Yeah.
Like, if you didn't drive a stick, if you didn't know about cars,
would, like, the rest of the guys be like, oh, my God,
Jake Owen's such a fraud a fraud or they not care i don't think uh yeah i don't i don't think the country world has that kind of
connotation anymore like there's the people there's people that i mean honestly country music has been
really cool as far as how it's opened its doors to so many different avenues if you like it you
like it cool if you don't like it you don't like it but like on country radio you you can have
everything from chris stapleton on one end to uh dan and shay on the other end they don't sound
anything alike but they all have incredible amounts of fans and uh and that's what's kind
of cool whereas like rock and roll is kind of like you kind of got to step on other people
and just be a badass right yeah i don't know if i have that in me i don't know if i could do it
every hotel you leave has to look like johnny depp at 92 yeah you have a bunch of necklaces bracelets it's just got to be a dead
body in the closet yeah i think i'd like be like i'm so sorry like i left like a towel on the floor
and i don't have it in me man all right if you had to spend the rest of your life in a rap music
video or a country music video which would you choose Yeah. Says the country music star.
I mean, because most of the time it looks like rap videos.
Like there's always a bunch of chicks around.
And I like pools.
They're always around a pool.
You know what I mean?
And I just told you I like cars.
So there's always cars.
Yep.
And I'd probably do that.
Because country music videos, after a while, you know,
they're not as wild. I don't want to sit on this tractor anymore. When I picture because country music videos after a while, you know, they're not as wild.
I don't want to sit on this tractor anymore.
When I picture a country music video, I picture Red Dirt Road.
And when I picture a rap music video, I picture Where to Party At.
Yeah, exactly.
I'd choose rap too.
Or like that video that Kanye did with that little punk guy
where they were in those suits and they're kind of, yeah.
Like we don't ever do that in country.
Like what's the problem here?
Why don't you change the game?
Why don't you revolutionize some shit and put out like a rap video with a country song?
By the way, I love all kinds of music so much.
I mean, I'm a huge rap fan.
I actually late night, my fiance, I'm getting used to saying that.
Congrats.
I heard you dropped Girlfriend earlier and I was like, oh, maybe the December engagement didn't go so well. used to saying that. Congrats. I heard you drop girlfriend earlier and I was like,
Oh, maybe the December engagement didn't go so well.
Did I say that?
Yeah.
Back up, bud. Thanks a lot.
I caught myself there.
I have like a little music room
that I just kind of, at night, I'll go in there
and clear my head and just do whatever comes to mind.
I'll do it. Sometimes it's like acoustic, kind of
folky songs. Sometimes it's rap acoustic, kind of folky songs.
Sometimes it's rap songs.
Start spitting bars?
Straight bars.
Yeah.
Yo.
I got this new one I've been working on lately called John Daly.
And it's just this hard rap song.
I'm on that John Daly.
So you just wait.
You heard it here first, folks.
I am not kidding.
If you put out a song, a rap song, John Daly, that will be a smash.
It's going to happen, man.
Are you doing it?
Are you doing it for real?
Like, don't fuck with me.
Don't make this something like, oh, I just did this little, like, thing on the side.
It was for fun.
Put this song out.
Oh, I'm going to.
I got a whole alter ego, you know?
It's pretty good.
You got a different name or is it still under Jake Owen?
No, it's a different name, man.
It's a totally different name.
You're like J.K. Rowling over here.
Yo, this is, you know, now I'm getting real interested.
If you start putting out rap music, then, I mean,
you're already kind of living, like, the life.
Like, if I had to, like, switch lives with someone, it might be you.
If you can also become a rapper on top of it, you're, like, my number one draft pick.
That is going to be interesting, Jake.
It's just I think the world right now is so cool and fun the way that there's so many different things connecting. Like, all different types of music are crossing over.
And people, it's not like, I don't know.
When I was a kid, like my buddy, Justin Amaya,
all he listened to was punk rock. You know, we're from Florida.
He's like, sir. He's like, if you don't listen to punk rock, you're not punk.
But like I sing country music.
It doesn't mean I'm not country or don't can't sing country music.
Cause I like listening to what don't know man I like everything
who's like your favorite rapper what's your favorite
rap album song whatever my favorite
rapper well I got
lots of them lately I've been listening
to you know like I think it's a
New York girl Young Ma
she's awesome
I know that's random to pull that
out I could have been like oh great
or like whatever but Young Ma is hard, dude.
I've heard the name Young Ma.
I couldn't tell you Young Ma's song.
I did not expect Jake Owen to say Young Ma.
At all.
At all, man.
Stuff like that is super cool, man.
I mean, there's all kinds of stuff.
We need a Jake Owen-Young Ma collab.
She'll do a song with you.
Make it happen.
She's got a delivery that's just smooth.
I always liked the way Biggie had that delivery.
She's got that kind of New York swag.
Unbelievable.
You're not fucking with me, are you?
This is real?
Do I look like I'm fucking with you?
Kind of.
I don't know.
A little bit.
Wow.
Unbelievable, man.
You are living the dream out there.
Since you are doing so much, like what's next? Do you have, do you like focus on one thing at a time
or are you just kind of all over the place? Is it time to get back in the, in the studio for
country music? Is it time to hit the links again for a tournament? What's next? Uh, really? I, uh,
I mean, when it comes to like my, my career, getting back in the studio, making some music, putting some new music out there to kind of get out and play when we can get back out and play, you know.
But right now, you know, it is this wedding planning right now.
Actually, Erica asked me about that yesterday.
I've been going like, I don't know, COVID and everything.
You know, I don't know if we still get people to get people like the dude thing.
Right. I'm super fired just about we're getting married.
We're excited about it and we're going to do it at our farm.
So we're, it's kind of going to be easy that way. But, uh,
how'd you really enjoy it? How'd you, how'd you propose?
How did I what? How'd you propose?
Okay. Well, um,
we went to the Christmas tree lot to get a Christmas tree this year and we've
gone to the same one for the last five years and she, you know, we have to get our girls like to get their Christmas cards done. And
we have a little girl. So we took her there with us. And I said, Hey, I invited my buddy to take
some photos. You can just use these for the Christmas card, like we're picking out a tree,
you know, and that made her happy. She was like, Oh my God, it's such a great idea. It's my
photographer from the road. And he came so she didn't think anything was weird with him being there
Right and I had the ring underneath my jacket like in my right here
I kind of holding it under my arm because she kept like, you know, we're walking and she's well
I didn't want it to fall out and I finally just said like screw it
I got down on one knee and I was like, hey, you know beautiful man
The video that just went viral with the hawk you You see this? No. So this couple goes to like a, I don't know, like a bird show, I guess.
So like in the stands, there's like, imagine you're at like bleachers.
Picture like a minor league baseball game.
That's like the stands.
And this chick comes out with a hawk on her arm.
And she's like, who wants to get involved in the audience?
Like, put your hand up.
And she says, who has a $5 bill?
She sends the hawk over to the girl they were all in on it and it lands on her arm takes the five dollar bill runs back
and then uh is like i gotta send you your receipt and she brings a little piece of paper and on it
says like will you marry me and then the dude drops down to one knee this motherfucker had a
hawk proposed to her i thought the hawk was gonna have the ring that's what i thought too that would
have been so imagine that hawk just took off
with a fucking $1 ring, man.
It's the risks you run.
But I like a little more low-key,
a little more personal at the lot
with the Christmas trees and the baby girl.
Good on you, man.
I'm sure she loved it.
It was cool, man.
And that's been the cool thing.
That sounds soft
because I'm prouder than anything about being a dad.
And I have two little girls.
So this whole time being home has been really hard to not be out on the road
and see,
see the fans and see,
see my guys in the band and see everyone.
But I've never had,
you know,
I see the guys in the band and I see the fans more than I see my little
girls.
And so to have this time at home and be able to be a dad to them and be
there has been incredible.
So I try to see this positive side of it, you know?
Yeah, for sure.
But then also when you get back on the road, you're going to be like,
all right, see you guys.
Good luck with bedtime.
I'm out of here.
All right, man.
Well, we appreciate the time.
The movie is out now.
Our friend.
You can go watch it.
Check it out.
Be ready for some tears and some emotions.
It's no joke.
My girlfriend was crying in the first 30 seconds,
and it probably didn't stop for most of the movie.
So, yeah, you're going to cry.
You're going to cry a lot.
It's a great movie, though.
I saw the trailer before I even knew we were interviewing you,
and I was like, this movie looks fucking awesome.
And so I was excited to watch it in preparation for this interview.
It did not let me down.
It did make me cry, though.
I'm a crier.
Well, hey, thanks, man.
I appreciate you guys even having me on and talking about it.
And hopefully see you all before too much longer.
And thanks so much for the donation, man.
$100K is no joke.
Thanks a lot.
That's really great stuff.
Yeah, no, we're happy to do it.
And in the meantime, man, I'll be on that John Daly.
Yeah, let's go. See you next time, bro. Thank you very much, man, I'll be on that John Daly. Yeah, let's go.
See you next time, bro.
All right, Jake, thank you very much, man.
We'll see y'all.
