Starting point is 00:01:39 I never thought I'd say this, but I'm happy to be home. That's how little I enjoyed Washington, D.C. And the second half of this episode, we are at Gary V's. We're on Gary V's home turf. So Gary Vaynerchuk has a new sneaker dropping. He reached out to me. He is sending me a new pair. He wants to talk sneakers and talk about, you know, entrepreneurial life and business and the Internet and kicks.
Starting point is 00:02:02 So we are going to head over to Gary V's and talk to him. We got voicemails, as always. But like I just said, we are back home from D.C. I don't think I've ever been like, home sweet home, Manhattan. But I got off the train, and I walked up out of Penn Station, and I was like, I'm never going back to D.C. See, I've been to D.C. before, and I guess I've only been in the winter. And I've actually been once in the summer for my sister's graduation,
Starting point is 00:02:32 and that was crazy hot, but I just assumed it was just a hot day. You know, I didn't think it was always like that. I mean, you know, it was unbearably hot. It was crazy. But you weren't there this morning. This morning it was very nice. This morning it was peaceful. It was extremely pleasant.
Starting point is 00:02:44 It was like a nice D.C. day. But you know what it is? It's just like there just is nothing. Like why would you go back? Like tell me, like what is it about D.C. that you want to go see again? You know? It's like when I went to like Nashville and it was like it's cool. Like there's the live music and there's food that like I've never had anywhere else.
Starting point is 00:03:02 It's like that type of food. There's nothing like that in D.C. The Northeast Corridor is just the same. They're all the same. We're all just shit. And it's like the worse version of all of them. It's like if we're going to do the Northeast Corridor, New York City has the better restaurants and the better nightlife
Starting point is 00:03:19 and the nicer everything, and Boston is more like that small New England. Boston has a culture. Yeah. People always say it as a knock that small New England deal. Boston has like a culture. Yeah. You know, people always say it as a knock where it's like it's a small town, not a big city. But I think that's what makes Boston cool. Yeah. The Onion republished that article, which they first wrote a long time ago, that people
Starting point is 00:03:37 in Boston are doing their thing again where they're pretending it's a big city. And it's just the whole recap of the day. And it's like interviewing New Yorkers saying how it's so adorable. They put on suits and stuff and they think what they're doing matters yeah they pretend they're going to plays at night like they're big broadway plays and stuff like that and like that is that's true it's true it's funny because it's true it's a weird thing uh one of the strangest things that humans do is like their their hometown pride it's like people really ride for just like the location in which they were born and i don't i don't necessarily get it i don't know like yeah i
Starting point is 00:04:15 mean i guess ow fuck i just bent my nail backwards on the fucking microphone ow i think we have to amputate it shit that hurt. I guess that is inherent. It's innate inside of us. But I feel like we've evolved. We're not just like... Have we? I guess not. I guess not because people are assholes running around talking about how Boston is the best city.
Starting point is 00:04:40 And it's like, eh. No, I love Boston. It's just very different i don't don't even really need to compare it to new york they're not the same they're not similar at all yeah at all i i mean i i think i'm the rarity and like i i'll tell you straight up new york stinks like i like new york i've enjoyed yes like i mean i live here i'm not i'm not going anywhere else i like it enough that obviously i make it my home but when people are like coley will do this to me all the time this city it stinks it's hot obviously I make it my home. But when people are like, Coley will do this to me all the time.
Starting point is 00:05:05 This city, it stinks. It's hot. It's crowded. It's expensive. I'm like, yep. That's true. I'm not going to sit here and deny hardcore facts just because this is where I was born.
Starting point is 00:05:15 But people really feel... And I mean, that's where I do make fun of Boston. Have we gotten much pushback from D.C. though? From our complaints at D.C.? No. Even Nate was like, yeah, you're right. Yeah, right. I think Boston is,
Starting point is 00:05:26 does have the, there is some sort of inferiority complex because they just do like ride for it where it's like, I don't know, I mean, guys,
Starting point is 00:05:33 I'm just stating a fact. There's 400,000 people in Boston. It's small. Okay. All right. Calm down. Calm down.
Starting point is 00:05:39 It's totally different. And Philly fights back too because they hate their scumbag reputation. It's like, you need to accept that as well. Yeah. So, you know, I'll accept everything about New York.
Starting point is 00:05:48 Expensive and, you know, dirty and smelly. You have to accept that Philly's trash. You have to accept that Boston is small. And D.C. seems to have sounded like they accept the fact that they're just, meh. It's just a very, like, sterile, plain, vanilla city. There's nothing. It's politics, man.
Starting point is 00:06:04 It's like, that's where you go. It's not vanilla, because there are, I mentioned, there were a few times where it's politics man it's like that's why you go it's not vanilla because there are i mentioned i guess there's there were a few times where i got out and i said that's cool that was a cool sight to see it's just like the capital building at night right and i didn't see it was cool to see the washington monument from a distance i didn't have the the need the desire to go up to it and stare up at it or whatever the fuck it is you do. It's just a cement penis. And there's really nothing. I was fine seeing it from a distance.
Starting point is 00:06:32 And it was like, oh, that's pretty cool. Quick, quick. That was a cool little shot. Even statues are cool. That Roosevelt statue we saw, that was pretty cool. It looked just like the guy at the museum. Shout out to Robbie Williams That's not going to compel me to go back to a city
Starting point is 00:06:48 No, certainly not I often think about This will probably never happen My life's over I'd like to go back to Nashville for a weekend Just to do that live music scene And eat chicken Fried chicken and be fat
Starting point is 00:07:03 And drunk for a weekend. It has an appeal to it that not many other places have. It just doesn't feel like any reason to go back to D.C. No, you're right. You're right. I can't fight you on that. But I think a lot of cities are like that, where you're just like, this is a place people live.
Starting point is 00:07:18 Yeah, yeah, yeah. We went to Atlanta. Atlanta was kind of the same. Atlanta was very boring. We didn't really do much. We kind of had a busy schedule while we were there. We went to Atlanta. Atlanta was kind of the same. Atlanta was very boring. Although, we didn't really do much. We kind of had a busy schedule while we were there. We went to the SEC Championship, and we had to be at that bar all the time.
Starting point is 00:07:32 You know what's a good way to describe D.C.? Everyone kept talking about the ballpark district, right? Like that area we were in, which is still under construction. It's extremely under construction. The neighborhood everyone was talking about is still completely in development. Oh, you know what I forgot to talk about? It makes no sense. When we were about to go do radio yesterday, and so I don't know, I guess this is kind of leading to the question. Does DC have a big drug problem?
Starting point is 00:08:00 They have a big homeless problem, right? Maybe that's it. I don't know what this means. Hopefully you can tell me. So I'm taking a piss right before we went out to go to the show. And you came in and I was kind of just like flabbergasted. I was like, I'll tell you when I'm in front of people. Yeah, yeah, right, right, right, right.
Starting point is 00:08:16 So I'm taking a piss and this guy comes up next to me in a Bryce Harper jersey. But like it wasn't the Nationals. Okay. The Bees or something like that. I couldn't tell him. I'm guessing maybe hisals okay the bees or something like that i couldn't tell him i'm guessing maybe his high school team or some shit like that i don't know and he just kind of stares at me until i look over he goes fucking women huh and i said you're gonna have to explain a little more on that i suppose but yeah i've had my run-ins as well um but he goes
Starting point is 00:08:41 he said yo they're fucking complaining that they can't do their makeup in the bathrooms anymore i said why is that again we're pissing my in the bathrooms anymore. I said, why is that? We're pissing. My hands on my dick, man. Why are they saying that? It's like the blue lights. They got the blue lights up so people don't die shooting up and the fucking women are complaining about how they can't do their makeup. I started looking around.
Starting point is 00:08:57 What does any of this mean? I don't know what you're talking about. I guess there was a blue tint around the mirrors. Okay. Is that a thing? Why would that stop you from using drugs? I don't know. Blue light in the mirror in the bathroom to stop you from shooting up?
Starting point is 00:09:10 Yeah, it was all very, very. Blue light heroin. How about that? I don't know what that means. I could see the blue light system makes it so that somebody who is looking to inject heroin or opioids can't find their veins. How about that? Oh. I just don't think that'll stop you.
Starting point is 00:09:31 I think they'll just shoot up and miss. That's wild. Yeah, look at this. They're showing pictures. That was what that bathroom was. Yeah, that is. It was all blue lights. So hopefully it will detract opioid addicts from doing drugs there.
Starting point is 00:09:47 Let me tell you something. That didn't look like the kind of bathroom people use to do heroin. No. But let me tell you something. From the little I know about heroin, if you're a heroin addict, you're not going to be like, ah, they got the
Starting point is 00:10:02 blue lights. Guess I'm not doing heroin today. If you've got your needle and your horse on you, you're shooting up. Your horse? The Heron, the H, the horse. You got that iron horse on you. You're going to fucking find some other light or just hope, you know, close your eyes and hope you hit the main because you're a heroin addict. They will do anything to get their fix.
Starting point is 00:10:24 So good effort. People say, oh, I'm out of money. I'll suck a dick. You'll find a way to get your heroin. Good effort, I guess. Every little bit helps when fighting heroin. But the blue lights ain't going to save anything. That's a weird interaction to have, though.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Like, hey, buddy, pissing. Makeup and heroin. What about you, dude? What is going on? And I just stood in the bathroom afterwards. I finished before he did. I stood just flabbergasted looking around. What the hell was he talking about?
Starting point is 00:10:54 And you came in and you said, what are you doing? And you became the weirdo. I had my hands up in the middle of the bathroom. I was like, what is going on? Well, that was the second weirdest interaction you had, we all had, of the weekend. I'm going to tell you about the strangest literally hands down not exaggerating here i know i'm prone to hyperbole hyperbole as they would say it was the strangest fan interaction i've ever had in my 10 years at barstool it's brought to you by omaha season omaha season might be 365 days a year at this point

Starting point is 00:12:20 OmahaSteaks.com. Search KFC in the search bar. We were doing the Barstool Radio from the bullpen down in D.C. Now, search KFC in the search bar. We were doing the Barstool Radio from the bullpen down in DC. Now the bullpen is a strange bar. It's right by the stadium. It's just an open parking lot with storage containers like that you would see like on the docks, like a big fucking rectangular, looks like the back of an 18 wheeler type of thing. And that's what they put their bars in. So it's like, it's almost like a concession stand at a ball game. You can walk up to it, you order your beers
Starting point is 00:12:48 and then everyone just hangs out in the middle where there's like an open parking lot space. We were supposed to be on stage. It poured rain one day so then we were inside one of those storage pods. As I'm in the middle of the show Jared is babbling on about God knows what. And I'm listening to a story
Starting point is 00:13:04 and I'm looking straight ahead, and I see this short, fat kid. And I actually think we ended up getting his name because he hung around for Evening Yak. What was his name? Did you see that, Logan? I didn't see his name. Get on that.
Starting point is 00:13:16 I think they were tweeting about it. So this dude was staring me down. Almost like, I feel like there's a movie where there's a guy, like a stalker, like a funny stalk there's a guy, like a stalker, like a funny stalker. It was almost like a Shooter McGavin's buddy situation. Like, he was just staring me down like I was Happy Gilmore.
Starting point is 00:13:32 He had his eyelids flipped inside out, and he was just staring me, staring at me as we were doing the show. And Jared kept talking. I don't think you guys realized, but I'm, like, looking back and forth at this guy the whole time. Sully. Sully, the whole time. Sully.
Starting point is 00:13:45 Sully, right. Big fat Sully. I mean, I could have guessed his name was Sully. And he kept looking. He kept pointing at himself and then pointing at me. And then he started like slapping his chest and pointing at me. And eventually I like stopped the show. And I was like, you guys, look at this fucking dude.
Starting point is 00:14:01 And as I bring him up, as I start talking about him, he pulls his shirt up and flashes us those titties. So now he's got the eyelids flipped inside out. You know what I'm talking about, right? Like when you're in elementary school and you flip them inside out. He kept doing that. Yeah, they were just sitting there. He just left them for a long time. So he's got the eyelids inside out.
Starting point is 00:14:19 And now he's rubbing his nipples like fat bastard from Austin Powers. And again, he starts slapping his belly. He's pointing at you, me, you, me. Like we're going to fight or something. I'm running through my head. I'm like, out of everyone I've offended, did I say something about this kid's sister? Did I say something about his mom or his girlfriend? Did I say something about him?
Starting point is 00:14:40 Of course he's a Yankee fan. So I'm like, all right, maybe this is just a Yankee grudge. And then he just, again again staring right through my soul he like clears out a path and just drops down and does the worm on this fucking hot ass soaking wet concrete and the place goes wild for it he goes from like creepy fat weirdo it's like creepy fat weirdo who's now bringing the heat. Fat guys can do the worm. Is that because their belly works for them? Because it's actually a very hard thing
Starting point is 00:15:12 to do, but the fats can do it no problem. It's because you can tell a skinny person when stuff's not getting off the ground. Fat person, everything's just bouncing. Yeah, they look like a fish on the boat, just flapping around. So the place goes wild. I'm loving it.
Starting point is 00:15:28 Then I told him to do it because there was so much rain. There was a puddle that was probably like a foot deep. And he gets up and he does the worm again in the puddle. Now, this was like we later found out it was sewage water. It was rainy parking lot runoff sewage water. And then the security came over and just like politely bounced him. And he was just like, okay. And he just walked out like waving to the crowd.
Starting point is 00:15:51 And again, he's pointing at me like, yeah, man, you and me. I had, I did not know what to make of it. He came back. I guess they let him back in different security guard, whatever it may be. And he actually gave a pretty funny response when they asked about this. What do you think about getting kicked out by security and getting back in? He goes, get better security.
Starting point is 00:16:09 It was a solid response. I mean, facts only. And he was immediately kicked out again after that. I mean, the security guard basically walked over and was like, well done, good showing, but you know you have to leave now. That's a fair thing. I do that all the time.
Starting point is 00:16:24 I've been kicked out of plenty of bars. this year puts a hand on me i say you got it you're right yeah i am out of line and dangerous i'm a danger to myself and others i shouldn't be in public i'll catch you later yeah see you tomorrow when i have to come back to pick up my tab yeah my card will definitely be here uh there was no reason to get violent or physical i will see myself out. Thank you very much. There are many times in life where you know what you're doing. I mean, look at that tan line.
Starting point is 00:16:49 He had the big, oh, we got like the slow motion. He gave me the Dikembe finger wag, drops down to two knees, and just flops into the sewage puddle. Look at that rippling, the puddle and the fat. I mean, it's a perfectly executed worm. He's got to be as wide as he is tall, as pale as he is fat. I mean, he's got the Dan going. Yeah, he has the hard core tan line and that back dimple where he should have a tramp stamp is just a hole, a crater in his back.
Starting point is 00:17:23 Check it out on Twitter, at KSU Radio. You'll see all the video of Fat Sully. But it just added to the list of strange fan interactions I've had prior to this cat because he scared me. This guy was creepy. Yeah, you were worried. You were saying, do we have a security round? We had barricades, but there was just a clear hole.
Starting point is 00:17:43 To you. And it was just right. It was a runway directly to me. I was like, this guy's going to like just Superman and just smush me. I'm just going to get like a swan dive of fat Sully onto me as I'm sitting there. Now me, by the way, here I am throwing these stones inside my glass storage container. At this point, I was barefoot. I was soaking wet. My hair's a mess.
Starting point is 00:18:04 I'm a sweaty slob. And here I am talking shit about Sully. I probably look just as disgusting as he did. Prior to that, though, the original GOAT interaction for me with a fan was at Saloon. Good old Saloon. Where, I mean, you reap what you sow sort of thing. Like, you go to Saloon at a barstool event. You're running into the scales of society.
Starting point is 00:18:29 And this was one of the days we did March Madness where we would do an open bar from tip off at noon to the end of the games at midnight. It was like a $40 open bar to start for four hours. And then you could add $10 per hour. You could just keep tacking on. So by the end of the night, you do a $120 open bar for 12 hours. That's fantastic. And I would get there at like 11 because I wanted to make sure I had my seat for the tip off. And I wanted to be there all day.
Starting point is 00:18:54 So I'm eating some wings at 11 a.m. And this dude is already blacked out. And he sits next to me at the bar. Listen, I love my fans. We talk to them. We take all the pictures in the world it's always kind of like a come and go sort of thing you if you're sitting next to me at the bar we gotta be friends i gotta like know you man i'm not trying to like belly up
Starting point is 00:19:14 to the bar for the next 10 hours of march madness with a total stranger you know and this guy he just pulled up like we were fucking family i mean mean, my friends who were there were like, who's your buddy? I don't even know. I don't even know his name, man. And so he was sitting next to me and just getting progressively drunker in the span of just like 40 minutes. I could see him eyeing up my wings.
Starting point is 00:19:38 And they were just like bones, you know? And he was like, are you going to finish that? And I looked down at my plate and I'm like, yeah, I mean, I did. I finished it. I ate all the wings. What do you want? Pass. So he pulls the lettuce bed off my plate.
Starting point is 00:19:56 You know, the little garnish where you put the wings on. It's not a salad. It's not a side. It's just a leaf of lettuce that they put the wings on top of. And he just takes that lettuce bed chowing down on it right in my face. And again, this is now at this point, it's probably like 1215 of like a 12 hour day ahead of me. And I'm just sitting here thinking like it's going to be a long one. And people, my wife always used to wonder or be mad why I would show up, like
Starting point is 00:20:24 come back home blacked out from a saloon trip. It's like, you want to know why? Because I got to deal with people eating my lettuce bed. If I have to deal with drunk people, I'm going to be one of them. Facts. Put that on a tip stone, man. If I have to deal with drunk people, drunk people have to deal with me. I mean, that's just how you survive.
Starting point is 00:20:43 That's how you get through it. I had a kid today just come up to me at 7-11. I was buying a tin. I was like, my sunglasses on. It's just I took one step in the door. I'm not going to take my sunglasses off. So I look at my sunglasses on, head down, and I was buying the tin. And he comes up, grabs me, spins me.
Starting point is 00:20:58 So he's looking me in the eye. And he's kind of just staring at my face a little bit. And he's kind of giving me the up-down. Feidelberg? So he's got his hands on your shoulders. Oh, hands on my shoulders. Yeah. Feidelberg?
Starting point is 00:21:08 I said, yeah, man, what's up? He just starts walking away. I thought it was one of your doppelgangers. And that was it. You know what? I don't encourage any sort of touching. But you are a guy you got to quadruple check on because you are the most lookalike man on the planet Earth. Boring person.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Yeah, you are just so vanilla. There's so many of you out there. You know, we talk about like the snowflakes, the snowflake generation. Everybody's unique and individual. You, sir, are absolutely not. Not me. I'm really not. I'm bland.
Starting point is 00:21:37 I'm unremarkable. You are so unremarkable. There's nothing to remark about. I'm not able to remark about you. The touching. no good. We're in such a weird spot as Barstool bloggers. We're like within our little bubble from the diehards. We're as noteworthy as a Hollywood actor, as a big-time athlete.
Starting point is 00:22:06 But yet, because we're just normal guys and we'll be at the bar and i'll be eating wings next to you or standing in the bullpen and people think that we're like buddies and shit but it's like would you go up to anybody else and touch them like would you go up to someone else that you you're a fan of on like tv or a movie or like a fist out or something like that yeah yeah yeah you tap it up, but would you grab someone by the shoulders and spin them around? Hey, were you that actor from that TV show
Starting point is 00:22:29 where you were like, grab, spin, stare? Like, why do you feel like you can touch us? I didn't know where I was going. I didn't know, because the final word didn't come until much later.
Starting point is 00:22:39 So I was like, what's going to happen here? What is this? Is he going to kiss me? What is happening here? You know, we really are. And I'll tell you what, could have done this? Is he going to kiss me? What is happening here? You know, we really are. And I'll tell you what. Could have done whatever.
Starting point is 00:22:47 If he wanted to kiss me, I was probably going to get kissed. I was so, I've said it before. You can just grab me and take me and do whatever you want to me. You can just rape Vidal Berg. No problem. You can just do whatever you want to me. That was another. I say that when I die.
Starting point is 00:23:02 Put whatever. Frank Reynolds. Put me in the trash. I don't really care. I'm alive. I'm still alive. Do whatever. What are you going to do?
Starting point is 00:23:08 Yeah. That girl, very cute girl, came up to me and was like, I just started at Deloitte. Like, you know, any words of advice or condolences or whatever. And so we started talking about that. And then she's like, same thing that a lot of people say. Like, oh, I can't believe you guys are just like hanging out here. Like, this is so cool. Like, I got to like talk to you about my career and stuff. And then she like looks down same thing that a lot of people say. Like, oh, I can't believe you guys are just hanging out here. This is so cool.
Starting point is 00:23:25 I got to talk to you about my career and stuff. And then she looks down the aisle and she sees you. And she's like, oh, that's Feidelberg there. I got a question about him. And she's all coy. And I'm kind of like, all right, yeah, shoot. And she's smirking. I'm like, what's your question?
Starting point is 00:23:37 She's like, does he really get raped every Sunday? Oh, yeah, yeah. I was like, what? What does that mean? Does he get raped every sunday oh yeah i was like what what does that mean do you get raped every sunday like i guess that's a kind of valid question like considering our content but like and i and i started laughing and i was like you know what i'm gonna let him answer that himself short answer no he's not weekly raped but long, I'm sure there's a lot more to it. It happened before.
Starting point is 00:24:07 It was a one-time thing. It was a one-time thing. Put it away. Keep it in your pants, girl. I'm willing to have it happen again. If you would like to come over Sunday, we can replicate this scenario. It's always a weird situation. It's always a weird trip.
Starting point is 00:24:23 We're like your friends you're not your friends. Where you're, like, entertainers, but we're also just your friends. Everybody always says, like... It's a gray area. We live in a very gray area. Which is the only reason why we're successful. Yeah. That's why people are like, you know, oh, you get, like, bothered by pictures and shit.
Starting point is 00:24:40 I'm like, that's the only reason we're successful. If we stop taking pictures and that relatability goes away, we're not talented enough to maintain this level of success. So I'll take all the pictures in the world. Speaking of not being about that life, you should have seen yesterday when I was doing my little walk around the concourse at National Stadium,
Starting point is 00:24:58 National Park, the entourage or the security that Poppy, A-Rod, and the Fox News crew had. Because they were walking, we just walked by each other, and J-Lo was with A-Rod. So it was J-Lo, A-Rod, David Ortiz, three supremely
Starting point is 00:25:15 famous. And there were other people, I forget who else was on that show. That's a fuck. It was the whole crew. Hispanic wrecking crew. Yeah, and they had about eight security guards around each of them. So like 40 security guards. And they all had whistles, and they had about eight security guards around each of them. So like 40 security guards, and they all had whistles. They were just blowing them like, get out of the way!
Starting point is 00:25:30 Beep! Beep! Beep! Wow. And there really weren't too many people around. It was basically like Feidelberg fucking move. It was kind of most people were in their seats, and I was kind of just like, I don't know what to do! And I just kind of did one sidestep. I wonder if that's a scenario where I look at that, I hear that was kind of just like, oh, I don't know what to do. And I just kind of did one sidestep.
Starting point is 00:25:45 I wonder like if that's a scenario that like I look at that, I hear that story. I'm like, that seems excessive. It was super excessive. But like, I don't know, maybe when you're worth like half a billion and you're J-Lo who's like a very attractive, I don't know about Poppy. Poppy seems like a guy who I thought would just like walk through by himself. Yeah. But the other ones, like maybe you reach a point where you really do because i mean
Starting point is 00:26:05 you know my story my stories are lettuce beds and and sully doing the worm you get that much more famous and this guy who's touching you and grabbing you is all of a sudden maybe a little too much of a creep and these things happen like a hundred times in a row maybe eventually yeah it's also it's also ants i'm playing with fire when one comes or pigeons or sea yeah they all flock you give one a little fucking french fry, bam, you're covered. So you stop and talk to one person. So basically that's just preventing one person from even slowing them down.
Starting point is 00:26:32 Right. And it seems excessive and maybe douchey, but I can see a scenario where it's like, trust me, man, if it's not this way, it gets all, you know, it's unbearable. I had that happen to me once at a kid. I was on a Bruins, I was on the Concourse of the Bruins game. It was like a Bruins playoff game.
Starting point is 00:26:47 There was no one on the Concourse because of the game was being on. I was a child. I was with my dad, so I wanted to make it a fucking hot dog. So I'm making him miss the game. Some things will never change. Right. And so we're out there, and again, we hear the whistle. I guess the whistles are a thing.
Starting point is 00:27:01 We hear the whistles, and we're like, out of the way, out of the way. And a guy actually pushes my dad back like that. Oh, shit. And then around the corner comes Michelle Kwan. And we were like, that's super duper un-fucking-necessary. There's no one out here. Very few people know who the hell Michelle Kwan is. Yeah, man, you're not trying to get fucking Tanya Harding, though.
Starting point is 00:27:23 You're not trying to get Nancy Kerrigan. No, but still, you're in public at a playoff game. You're not leading up to the Olympics. There's no reason to Nancy Kerrigan you. It was crazy. But I guess that's kind of how some people are. I mean, again, that's the difference. I'll just keep making myself accessible so that people like us.
Starting point is 00:27:46 You know what was new? I signed a couple autographs. Yeah. I've done like one here or there. I probably signed a hand. That's weird. That's weird. One guy had me sign his Frisbee.
Starting point is 00:27:59 I signed an Ally Frisbee, no less. What does that mean? Ally was a weight loss drug. Probably popular about 10 to 12 years ago. Started killing people with some shit? Yeah, it would make you incontinent, so you'd shit yourself. That's how you lose weight. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:16 It makes sense. It's called the laxative. You would leak poop. So our names are stamped on that one, huh? Yeah. The ally was a strange drug out there for a little while. Chubby people pooping themselves, hoping to get hot. Sully.
Starting point is 00:28:31 Sully's got to get on that, man. What do you think? I guess the levels were kind of living through it. Pictures, autographs, and then what? I think autographs are a very rare thing. I think even for maybe baseball players at bp but even i think even athletes that's why it was weird they're they're just signing autographs for maybe the little kids at the game and stuff like that but yeah anyone else you know that used to be a thing
Starting point is 00:28:55 that people do all the time but now i think the selfie is overtaken yeah but yes i would agree that that's like the move but i think that the, like, the level of noteworthiness that you are, if you want your autograph, it's higher than a picture. Yes. You know? Yeah. That was weird. I signed a hat. I signed a flag.
Starting point is 00:29:14 I signed a frisbee. Like, this is strange. And I remember being like, do you want me to write my name or should I, like, come up with a signature for my initials? What did you do? I did my name because I don't have I mean unless I was literally just gonna write like KFC I'd like figure a way to do a signature for my initials if that's what people want. I don't know what people want because I don't know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:35 But is that what people want? You think? I don't know. It's just so stupid because it's like why do you want this at all? One time I signed a golf ball. You know how hard it is to fucking sign a little dimply golf ball? It was weird. We have a good voicemail on this. Yeah?
Starting point is 00:29:50 All right, let's get into these voicemails then. It's swamp ass season, which means you got your shorts on, you got your boxes on, and your ass is sweating. It's greasy. It's gross. It feels disgusting. It's too hot. It's sticky.
Starting point is 00:30:02 Your underwear is riding up and bunching up. Your shorts are too heavy. They don't look good. Bird Dog solves all those problems with the most comfortable shorts you're going to wear all summer long. It's got that feel like a nice breeze is swooping up into your balls. It's got the lining, but it's not like the old school bathing suit lining. That's like a net. We're talking about a nice mesh hammock for your nutsack. It supports your balls. It's snug on your butt. It's got stylish shorts that roll with it.
Starting point is 00:30:35 So the most comfortable shorts you're going to wear all season long, all summer long is Bird Dogs. Go to birddogs.com, enter the promo code KFC, and you'll get a free dad hat when you cop some shorts. I mean, they're basically going to be $50. Go to birddogs.com, enter the promo code KFC, and you'll get a free dad hat when you cop some shorts. I mean, they're basically going to be $50. Go to birddogs.com. You will not take these things off. You'll wear them to work. You'll wear them to play. You'll wear them around the house.
Starting point is 00:30:54 You'll wear them to bed at night. You'll wear them to the gym. Birddogs everywhere. Birddogs.com, promo code KFC. KFC, fights, BC, what's going on? So my girlfriend was telling me about one of the Kardashians getting something done with her lips, her lip fillers taken out. Shout out to Kylie.
Starting point is 00:31:18 And I kind of made a joke saying, like, you know, who the fuck cares? And she responded back saying, do you think I give a fuck about what KFC did or what Fights did or PFT did on your podcast that you listen to? Yeah. And, you know, it kind of was like, wait, yeah, I thought you did care. So, I mean, my question is, are you guys kind of like my Kardashians? Yes. My girlfriend? I've always said that. What are you – what does the guy stand for then?
Starting point is 00:31:53 I think we are – that's why I always get a kick out of people being like, fuck the Kardashians when they're big Barstool fans. I think we're the male Kardashians. Yeah. Yeah, no, 100%. We're not related. That's why I stand for the Kardashians. Yeah, I will ride for them.
Starting point is 00:32:06 Yeah, I think they're crazy. They're crazy talented. Yeah, they're the most talented people in the world. And I do genuinely think that, but without making a comparison to us, because first of all,
Starting point is 00:32:14 that's a totally different level of things. Yeah, I mean, we are them, like, 0.1%. Oh, yeah, right, right. But I do think they lead interesting lives
Starting point is 00:32:24 that people care about, that people want to know about. The same way people are like, who fucking cares? It's the same thing when I'll tweet. Who fucking cares is just a really annoying, frustrating thing I hear said all the time. Yeah. Because who cares? Just say I don't care. Right.
Starting point is 00:32:41 Why are you assuming that? When you ask who cares, you're just saying I don't care. Right. Why are you assuming that? Right. Well, when you ask who cares, you're just saying I don't care. I also say that it's very hard to respond without saying like a total dickhead, like douchebag. But it's like, man, do you want to check the numbers? Like people care. Right. A lot of people listen to this.
Starting point is 00:32:56 A lot of people read our site. A lot of people follow us. Like people care. People care. Again, I actually don't know why. Sometimes I'm like tweeting things. I'm like, I don't know. I guess people are interested in this.
Starting point is 00:33:04 I don't know why sometimes i'm like tweeting things i'm like i don't know i guess people are interested in this i don't know why like i will i will tweet out my whole new meal schedule about when i'm eating taco bell in the morning uh people care i don't know why and it's the same thing of like what does fucking kim do why do you care when she's like you know in the club it's like why do you guys care she's an interesting person she leads an interesting life interesting things happen to her. Yeah. Those are fucking a lot of interesting things that people care about. I think that we are just the less interesting version because we are still just living normal lives.
Starting point is 00:33:35 I think eventually you get famous enough, rich enough, that then you can start doing dope shit. So if we were just loaded, we would be like, instead of just popping here and there popping here and there to, like, around the city to do things, we would be, like, let's fly to fucking Ibiza. Well, I mean. And then it's real interesting. Yeah, but also, to be fair, you know, we just went out to L.A. Yeah, we're doing, like, the JV version of that. We just went to the All-Star game. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:57 We're not in a club, but we do interesting things. In fact, I was talking to my dad the other day, and he was just saying, you know, appreciate your life. He said, you do a lot of interesting things. Right. You should. So as much as we knock it and whatnot, I think we do do a lot of interesting stuff. We pretend. Not pretend.
Starting point is 00:34:13 We hate a lot of stuff, but we are hashtag blessed. We get to do a lot of cool, interesting things that people are curious about. And there's just a level of intrigue for, I don't know if I can really articulate why, but it's like people were interested in my marriage falling apart. People are interested in what happened with Dave, and people are interested in the secrecy of PFT, and people are interested in the background stories of Francis. And, like like people,
Starting point is 00:34:45 it's a, it's a little soap opera, right? It's real, but it's also proper is the female Kardashian. And it's funny that like this guy was like, Oh, I thought my girlfriend really did care.
Starting point is 00:34:58 If you're not a stoolie and someone's trying to talk your ear off about us, you're probably like, shut the fuck up. I do not care about these internet nerds. You're talking about same shit as the Kardashians, man. I thought you did care. Bro, I have friends and family who don't care about me, and I'm connected to them. I have friends and family who go out of
Starting point is 00:35:14 my way to tell me that they don't give a fuck about me. Right, like, stop talking about your blog. Nobody fucking cares. I'm not even talking about it, but they'll just say, oh yeah, my friend asked me if I knew you, and I said, I don't give a fuck. Yeah, they get that. They don't tell. Yeah. They get spiteful about it. You know, it's like, oh, yeah, somebody asked me if I knew you. Like, fucking assholes.
Starting point is 00:35:31 Like, why? What? Was that my fault, man? Couldn't you just say yes? Yeah. Or just not tell me that you got mad about it. I didn't realize my career affected your social stance. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:35:44 Jesus Christ. I realized it ruined your fucking Friday night out. Someone asked if I knew your friend. Imagine that with any other friend. Oh, you went to the Abbey? Do you know Tom? Fuck that guy. Send him a text.
Starting point is 00:35:59 Someone just asked if I know you. Fuck off. Sorry, people know me, I guess, man. You assholes. What's up, KFC? Fights BC. Fights briefly mentioned this on the last episode about all he can do is watch The Office. And I think this might be something that he's really kind of glossed over. All I do, all that's on my TV all the time is I rewatch The Office over and over.
Starting point is 00:36:34 I'm currently on season three right now. Excuse me, season four. And I just finished five days ago. And it just is constantly playing when I'm doing my homework I have it muted with the subtitles on it's always on when Westworld was still on I watch Westworld every single week and I'm really into it some nights I'll be there I go ah I don't know if I'm just gonna watch The Office shows me my wife It started as a just every time I go to bed thing, but every single time. It's almost like gotten to a point where I get nervous about starting something new,
Starting point is 00:37:10 and I get a little bit uncomfortable or scared, and I go, I'm just going to watch The Office. Yeah, I mean, that's where it comes from. That's exactly what it is, right? It's like it's daunting to start a new series or to, like, commit to a movie, especially when you get to a level. This does not apply to you. So you're just a weirdo. But like I have few free nights. So when it's like I got the house to myself or like everybody's in bed and I know I can watch something, it's like I got to make this count.
Starting point is 00:37:42 And so that movie, the Rot movie the rotten tomatoes not so good or i heard that this series takes a while to get into but i know that season four of the office is gonna fucking play the hits i'm going to that yeah well netflix and television has kind of become a relationship and yeah and you have these new shows that might excite you that might you might be rather interested in but you don't want to take a risk on it and all that stuff or you have these new shows that might excite you, that you might be rather interested in, but you don't want to take a risk on it and all that stuff. Or you have Baby You Can Marry, and you know she's always going to deliver for you. And that's The Office. And that's so romantic.
Starting point is 00:38:17 Well, that's because I'm a romantic. But I think it's a problem. You shouldn't be marrying television programs, though I have. I would say it's's a problem. You shouldn't be marrying television programs, though I have. I would say it's not a problem. I would say that it's probably the most stable and secure relationship you're going to have in your whole life with television. I just finished rewatching again on the train. I cried my eyes out today. I did the Frankie Borelli.
Starting point is 00:38:38 I put my sunglasses on. Yeah. When Pam's selling the house and it's a surprise and all that stuff. I was crying. I had my sunglasses off, and then I ended up putting them on because I was tearing up too much. Excuse me. But, yeah, I mean, that's a problem that everyone runs into.
Starting point is 00:38:53 I mean, I... His microphones are disgusting. But the... Yeah, I think everyone does that And it's also It's just weird To not have Things on TV
Starting point is 00:39:11 You know We're largely nowadays We're just playing on our phone Yeah So we're not even really watching TV Just on So that's something you say You know
Starting point is 00:39:18 That you can put on You can come in and out of it And whenever you look up You'll know where you are And you'll know it's pretty funny Yeah So it's just something You can't just sit.
Starting point is 00:39:25 I've done it before and I'll get home and I'll be tired and I'll sit on the couch and I'll be fucking around on my phone for an hour. And I'll just be like, this is weird. I haven't even turned the lights on yet. Instead of the lights on, I got to turn the TV on because you have to be to announce your presence to your home. I'm here. I'm not just hiding from you. So that's kind of a thing you can comfortably put on and say, yeah, I get what's – this is fine. I can come in and out whenever I want.
Starting point is 00:39:47 I started watching Banshee. Yeah, you mentioned that. That's a good one. You like it, right? It's fire. Yeah. It's fire. And the director actually tweeted me.
Starting point is 00:39:55 I asked Twitter. I was like, will I like this? Do you guys know what I'm into? Like, will I like this? And he just tweeted me a couple hours ago. I was like, what did you think? And I'm five episodes in and I'm in. It's very Prison Break season one, which I think this director, I think he was part of that.
Starting point is 00:40:11 So it makes sense. It has like the theatrics of like Sons of Anarchy with like a storyline type of prison break thing. It's got like a flashbacks thing going on like Lost. But then somebody fucks every single episode like somebody dies every single episode and it's just uh like a wild ride when did this show come out um good question i think it's now off the air so i had several seasons i would four seasons and i think i would guess 2012 see sometimes i wish I could just grab marketing groups and something like that and shake them. Yeah, like where, how did this not catch on?
Starting point is 00:40:51 It's a terrible name. It's the town. It's called Banshee, like, call it whatever. But that's not good. It's Pennsylvania. Because I've been, Coley's been pumping me hard on this. Now that you've said it's good, I'm going to finally sit down and watch it. It was Cinemax, too, which, like, it hasn good i'm gonna finally sit down and watch it but it was cinemax too which like cinemax hasn't popped like showtime and hbo they almost needed to say this is
Starting point is 00:41:10 like the sopranos of you know like the the this is going to be the hallmark show of cinemax so like you know what i mean like a flagship show sort of thing but banshee it just it sounds it sounds like supernatural yeah it does yeah and it came out in the height of that vampire, Walking Dead, stuff like that. So I was just burnt out on that stuff. No, it's very, very much knocked out. I didn't have any care to start a new Supernatural about screaming gooblins and gooblins, goblins, Jesus. Gooblins. I can't talk to him.
Starting point is 00:41:40 I'm so fucking tired. I woke up early today. I had to train this morning. And it was just, it was something I didn't want to say. Now I'll say this. There are moments that are as unrealistic as gooblins. It's very outrageous. The basic premise is that this guy just gets out of jail,
Starting point is 00:41:57 and he's able to assume the identity of a sheriff. So he's just like, I'm the sheriff now. It's like I'm pretty sure there would be like some background checks or something going on where you couldn't just walk in and become the sheriff but uh there is just like some hardcore sex hardcore violence and fun like he's a ex-thief now a a vigilante type of cop who does whatever he wants at one point he's fighting this guy and he grabs his with with his two hands, you know, if you're doing like the Vulcan V with your fingers,
Starting point is 00:42:30 you know, where you split between your ring finger and your middle finger. With each hand, he grabs either side of his fingers, and he rips the guy's hand in half. Denzel does that in The Equalizer 2. He pulls like the whole hand apart. In The Equalizer 2, it's not even out yet. He doesn't just like break the guy's...
Starting point is 00:42:44 He goes, you know, the Star Wars do that, the Eclipses 2, it's not even out yet. He doesn't just break the guy's... In the trailer, he goes, you know the Star Wars do that? He has them do that. Dennis, not Dennis, Jesus Christ. Denzel. Denzel does that. I don't know, because I'm not saying he breaks the fingers. I'm saying the flesh rips down the middle. He pulls the guy's hand in half.
Starting point is 00:42:57 At one point, he grabs an A1 bottle of steak sauce, and he jams it in the guy's throat, and then he smashes it with the heel of his hand, and it just kills the guy by jamming a steak bottle down his throat it's it's that kind of show it's it's very aggressive and i mean i'm talking about i'm sure people are yeah bro it's been on the air and off the air for like five years now but i'm in on it so uh check that out before you do anything before you watch reruns of the office before you watch watch Banshee, try to squeeze it in. Jurassic World, tonight,
Starting point is 00:43:27 is alone together. We will be at the bar at Ainsworth. What time? Mediocre producer, Logan. He's not, he's no super producer just yet. Jurassic World, we're doing the Alone Together happy hour. We're all going to get together at the bar.
Starting point is 00:43:47 I'm very excited for that. Yeah, me too. And I think going forward, there will be kind of like a live podcast element. I don't think that's possible. 6 p.m. 6 p.m. tonight. It's not like we can't really set it up. We didn't do it in time.
Starting point is 00:44:00 So we're just hanging out tonight. We're just going to go to the bar. It's a nice happy hour where we're going to talk about this wacky movie.

Promo code KFC. Start hydrating. Save that money.
Starting point is 00:45:26 Fight that hangover. Stay alive. Hey, KFC, Fights, BC. So I have a little bit of a dilemma. So going into college, I was kind of seeing a girl for a few months, and everything was great. Randomly, one day, she decides to call me and say we need to talk. I get there.
Starting point is 00:45:43 She's crying and says she has a disease that the doctors don't know what it is, can't find a cure. She's going to die in the next three months. So she wants to spend all the time that she has with her ex-boyfriend because she's still in love with him, whatever. Fast forward about six years, and she recently reached out to me and wants to hang out again. So we've been talking and hanging out, and I i have a couple questions i bet you so i'm 99 sure this girl faked her death to get away from me don't really blame her for that how do i approach that in conversation with her because it hasn't really come up yet but i don't want to let that slide and two should i even be like entertaining the thought of getting back with her
Starting point is 00:46:25 if she's capable of faking her death to get away from somebody? Because doesn't that mean she would just be a psychopath and maybe kill me in my sleep one day? Well, anyways. Listen. All right, let me know what you think. Okay. First of all, you want to bring it up?
Starting point is 00:46:43 You do it just how you said it. I think you go right to this girl. So you've faked your death to try to get away from me, huh? Right. Because here's the thing. One, she probably did. I think she did. I would guess, yes.
Starting point is 00:46:55 I need to know a little more background, but it strikes me as a fake death. Exactly. So it's either like, yes, she did, or B, there's so much circumstantial evidence that it at least very much looks that way to the point that you don't have to tiptoe around this. You can let this fly. You can just ask this girl straight up or say you could accuse her if you wanted because if somehow it's not true, I think she'll laugh it off as like, hey, it does look like that way. No, no, no. Actually, this is what happened. But, yeah, you're right.
Starting point is 00:47:23 It does look like I just told you I had you know brain cancer to get away from you so i think you can just absolutely let it fly now you say how could i be with this girl if she's capable of that i say how could you not be with this girl that's a love that's gonna burn bright hot and fast because she's not a psychopath in the sense that she'll kill you i don't think i think there are different forms of psychopathy and the i think she's the kind who she'll make up an illness maybe she'll kill you, I don't think. I think there are different forms of psychopathy. And I think she's the kind who she'll make up an illness. Maybe she'll just get sick again in a year. Hey. All right, whatever.
Starting point is 00:47:50 Listen, if she was going to stab you to get away from you in your sleep, she would have done that already. Right. Right? She'll just make up a lie. That's the dream breakup. This is us. This is what we do.
Starting point is 00:48:01 This is like she's almost beating us at our own game, where it's like you are so afraid of the confrontation and you're actually so afraid of like hurting someone's feelings and just telling them how it is. You will go to the length of faking your own death. That, my friend, the only problem I would have with that. Beautiful. The only thing I would have with that is like that's my move. Now it's like, you know, unstoppable force versus the immovable object. Like who's going to break here?
Starting point is 00:48:25 You're going to make up your own list. I'll be making up a death in the family. We'll have tons of lies flying, but this is the ideal situation. This girl actually loves you. Hey, buddy, this guy cared about you so much. She didn't want to hurt you. She went through the turmoil and the turbulence of coming up with this lie and sticking to it.
Starting point is 00:48:42 This girl is in love with you, man. I think this is one of those things where if she was making up the illness in order to keep you around, that's a problem. Right. If she's like, I'm sick, you can't leave me. I need you to care for me. But if you're getting hit with the, I'm sick, I want to spend my time with the people I really love, honey. Thank you. You go find your peace.
Starting point is 00:49:03 I'm totally, totally fine with that. If that's the breakup you want to use, because we've talked about how you want to get dumped before, and I don't want to get ghosted. I'm basically getting ghosted. This is ghosted with a little bit of closure. You know, it's like the problem with ghost is that you're sometimes like, wait, what did I do?
Starting point is 00:49:19 Like, really, what was it? This is like. I never think that because I know there are so many things. Well, you're not exactly normal. I never think, because I know there are so many things. Well, you're not exactly normal. I never think what could I have done? I did a million things.
Starting point is 00:49:29 It's almost like what did I not do? Which one did she pick from? There's so much wrong with me. I'm surprised it took her this long. We got one more voicemail before we get into Gary V.
Starting point is 00:49:39 Hit us with the Would You Rather, Logan. Hey, fellas. Quick hypothetical. Would You Rather floating around? I've heard one to ask the Logan. Hey, fellas. Quick hypothetical. Would you rather phone around? I've heard. I wanted to ask you guys. So would you rather every floor in your house be made out of raw hamburgers or every sheet in your house be made out of American cheese?
Starting point is 00:49:55 Say it again. Some stipulations for this. I've heard. I wanted to ask you guys. So would you rather every floor in your house be made out of raw hamburgers or every sheet in your house be made out of American cheese? Some stipulations for this. One, you can't get like E. coli or salmonella from the raw hamburger. And two, you can't eat your bed sheet.
Starting point is 00:50:15 So, yeah. What do you guys think? Floors made of hamburger meat, sheets made of American cheese. You got to go with sheets. There's just less sheets. Oh, no way. No way. You don't spend much time on the floor.
Starting point is 00:50:28 You're always on the floor. You're walking on the floor. I'm feet up on the couch most of the time. Well, how do you get to your couch? I walk. On the fucking hamburger meat. I bet you are spending less time per day on your floor than you are in your bed. I bet you're not.
Starting point is 00:50:43 Yes, you are. The floor in your home, I guess maybe you're like- You're walking everywhere you go. You go to the bathroom, the fucking shower. Buddy, when I'm in my house, I take fucking 10 steps. On raw hamburger meat. I'm fine with that. I don't want to sleep on, that's just not comfortable.
Starting point is 00:50:59 You get up and you go to the kitchen. You're not comfortable sleeping in cheese. You go to the bathroom, you walk in the house, you walk out of the house. First of all, I wear shoes all the time. You're not comfortable sleeping in keys. You go to the bathroom, you walk in the house, you walk out of the house. First of all, I wear shoes all the time. Are you guys thinking I'm weird? Alright, so now you got your Wotherspoons on, you got raw hamburger meat all over them. Whatever, that's fine. I mean, you took them off to run through the streets of D.C.
Starting point is 00:51:13 the other day because you didn't want them getting wet. That's sewage water. Well, raw hamburger meat ain't exactly good for the shoe. It's just the bottom. I mean, yeah, when you're smushing into it, it's everywhere. I'm assuming the smell doesn't come into play and all that shit, right? Let's not be ridiculous. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:30 But I think, first of all, it might be kind of nice. It's like walking through the part of the beach where the water meets the sand, where it's kind of soft and squishy. That's not what raw hamburger meat feels like. I think it is. We'll test it out. But I think it would be surprisingly comfortable and i don't i don't spend as much time like walking around and chasing kids i i pretty much piss once a night by the time i get home there's actually sometimes i lay down on the floor like i i know what raw hamburger meat looks like, buddy.
Starting point is 00:52:06 I'm pretty much just laying on my couch. I mean, I agree that having bed sheets of American cheese is not, like, comfy cozy. I bet you it would be warm as fuck. I bet you, like, you want to get cozy and warm up in the winter, and American cheese blankets are the way to go. I'm not saying I'd like it. I'm just saying that you're interacting with your bed just at night when you sleep. I'm not trying to walk around gooey
Starting point is 00:52:30 squishy hamburger meat and either ruin my shoes or you have raw meat between your toes. It's not ideal, but I absolutely without a doubt spend more time in bed than I do on my floor.
Starting point is 00:52:47 I want you to clock this. Okay. Every time you're standing in the shower, every time you're sitting on the toilet, standing in front of the sink, brushing your teeth. So the shower's not my floor. I mean, all right. I guess you'll just have a tub on top of your... Okay. Everywhere else.
Starting point is 00:53:01 Every time you walk to the fridge, every time you're sitting anywhere, even if you're on your couch, but you're sitting with your feet on the ground. Never happens. Toes are all up in. Never happens. I mean, it does. If you're sitting on your couch and like eating something, it'll happen. It's either, I'm either laying down or my feet are up on my coffee table.
Starting point is 00:53:16 Not if you're eating something. If you have like a plate on like, whatever, you have a coffee table or something, you're sitting and leaning open. I will literally clock it tonight. Okay. And I don't necessarily think it'll be hours because you when you just lay down you're you're you'll sleep for like 12 hours at a time because you're a man child peter pan but the amount of uh like waking time you know it's like you lay in your bed for 10 minutes before you fall asleep you're walking around your apartment i lay my bed forever
Starting point is 00:53:42 you and your cheese blankets. Yeah. All right. Let's talk to our guy, Gary V. And also, you'd be laying in your bed forever if you were on goddamn cheese blankets because you wouldn't be able to fall asleep. I'd probably be, oh, I'd definitely be in my bed forever if I had fucking hamburger meat floors. Tell you that much. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:58 You know, the floor is lava. The floor is hamburger meat, bro. Gary V. is brought to you by Udemy is the largest and most accessible online learning marketplace with the most courses, teachers and opportunities for students everywhere around the globe.

Starting point is 00:54:32 best place to do it. It's a marketplace that has something for everyone. I like podcasting. I wanted to learn about it, so I just talked to my brother. He's my Udemy. He goes and reads Udemy, and then he tells me everything. And if you don't have a Brendan Clancy, you've got to go right to Udemy. You can do it at home. You can do it at school. You can do it on the go. You go to ude.my slash kfc. That's ude.my slash kfc.

Starting point is 00:55:15 I'm just being like, we're going to do this. You know what's funny? It's funny you said it that way. I actually think it's authenticity that you build on top you're genuinely doing some of the only stuff that i think is good like i'm well that's it feels that way i don't i mean who else can you really even name in the space that's doing
Starting point is 00:55:39 anything worthwhile you know i'm giving you a better compliment. I'm talking period. Yeah. I'll take it. I disagree, but I'll take it. I'm not talking like you're doing better at ESPN. Yeah. I'm talking like I don't think people really – I don't think you – if you disagree, I don't think you realize what's going on in the world right now with the haves and the have-nots. Well, Kevin and I always talk about we don't think we have any talent at all. Yeah, we feel like we just kind of are here doing our thing. I think our talent is being authentic and being genuine.
Starting point is 00:56:08 You know how hard that is? Yeah, well, I guess that's what other people can't seem to do. And that was our big fear when getting into vlogging is like the what's up, YouTube? We can't do that because that's not authentic for us. It's just not how we do it. People forget what I did. When I did this with daily v people weren't having people follow them around right vlogging wasn't this yeah this is reality
Starting point is 00:56:32 tv yeah vlogging was this was the camera yeah yeah yeah i mean so i couldn't do it either i'm busy as fuck right you know yeah like the commitment you got to make to the vlog game where it's like just the only thing you do is just not an option for us. It was like with the radio show, podcast, the blog, it just can't do it that way. So what are we doing? We're doing your show. It's basically two in one.
Starting point is 00:56:56 Let's do it. We're here at VaynerMedia. We're sitting down with our guy Gary V. This is the second or third time on our show. You've been around the Pat McAfee show. You've been through the Barstool offices. Our first time here. let me tell you something. It's a little bit different than Barstool HQ.
Starting point is 00:57:11 You've been through our office. It looks like a trap house. It's not exactly the high rise. It's why you guys are going to be more successful than me. I've sold out. I look at the garden now. This is the beginning of the end for me. All this tchotchke shit is trying for me to hold on to what actually matters.
Starting point is 00:57:26 I literally wish that my office was still in some shithole. You want to trade? Yeah. We can swap tomorrow. Let's go. Let's go. You guys going to pay this rent? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:35 That's probably the problem. Yeah, yeah. So we're here primarily to talk sneakers, to talk shoes, which is perfect for me. Fights is down with the sneakers. I'm a fucking loser about it. I'm like a sneaker nerd. You love it. I love it. I mean, to me, somebody Dragonfly Jones went viral
Starting point is 00:57:52 the other day with a tweet saying, my sneakers, my sneaker collection, it's not about today. It's about making me from 15 years ago happy. I get sneakers now to be like, I wanted these when I was in 8th grade and my mom wouldn't buy them for me, but I fucking have them now.
Starting point is 00:58:07 That's why I'm wearing the 11s right now. It's like to me. Nope, the Frank Thomas's. Those right down. Thank you. Literally, as you were just talking, I have four, not one, not two, not three. I have four Frank Thomas 90 leaf rookie cards
Starting point is 00:58:21 that I just put on the table. The fucking 15 year old me is like i'm flexing like fucking losing his shit right now yes exactly so i get it like if i was younger like the baseball card game would have absolutely been the sneaker game because it was whatever the fuck people wanted right um so i get that i get that tremendously and like the maddenley rookie and like all the shit i have here it's like the same shit. I'm trying but at the same time as I get into it so I you know
Starting point is 00:58:47 I collected every Jordan I ever wanted and then just naturally getting into this. What's your favorite basketball team? The Knicks. Okay let's talk about this because I knew that they were.
Starting point is 00:58:55 I was going to say you son of a bitch you know what the answer is there. I know what the answer is I'm setting you up to tell you I'm fucking pissed at you. How can a real Knicks fan
Starting point is 00:59:03 ever wear a pair of Jordans? I know i know i know this is your thing this is my hugest thing i get it i understand now here's the reason you're just too young how old are you yeah i mean i'm 33 now i wasn't yes i i was i was by the way this is my number one thing if i watch one more fuck face debate lebron and jordan on instagram without ever seeing jordan play yeah they're huge. It's outrageous. It makes no fucking sense at all. All these fucking 16-year-old pimple Pat is like, it's definitely Jordan. I'm like, pimple Pat,
Starting point is 00:59:31 you were fucking sperm in your dad's dick when fucking Jordan was playing. You've never seen Jordan play. You've seen a couple of YouTube highlights. You've read a few box scores and that's it. You don't know that fucking, what Starks and Oakley, what the NBA was really like.
Starting point is 00:59:43 You don't know context. That's the new argument is that Jordan didn't play against any competition. It's true. But no, I don't know that fucking, what Starks and Oakley, what the NBA was really like. You don't know context. That's the new argument is that Jordan didn't play against any competition. It's true. But no, I don't think that's. No, it's true. The way that they're posing it. He didn't play the fucking Warriors. No, that's true.
Starting point is 00:59:54 But the way they're posing it like there was no competition is ridiculous. Let me talk about this. And I'm a diehard Knicks fan. And I love John Starks and Oakley more than life. But I know. I mean, they wouldn't last a fucking second Starks and Oakley more than life, but I know exactly. I mean, they wouldn't last a fucking second in Tennessee. And forget about the athleticism, because you can't do that.
Starting point is 01:00:09 You gotta do it competently. I don't think people know who Starks and Oakley are. Oakley stayed in the game. No, no, they were nice players. Go watch the 94 NBA Finals. Otis Thorpe is putting work on oakley what a throwback like like i don't think people are educated you know one of the reasons i don't talk about sneakers and basketball heavy even though i'm passionate about both is i know that
Starting point is 01:00:37 i'm just dangerous with them what i mean by that slang term for i know my shit but i don't know yeah let's fucking throw down right now no i live i mean we live in the same space with everything even like our sports fandom to our television coverage to me liking sneakers we're not we're not an expert in anything we're not living and breathing it but i know what the fuck i'm talking about i'm a jack of all trades a master of none yeah fair enough but even the master of none there is one thing that if you had to be like fucking put in the corner and be a master of, you'll go there, right?
Starting point is 01:01:06 For me, Knicks, Jets. I'm a Jets fan, I'm a Knicks fan. That's baseball. Right? But man, I really know Jets football. I'm bringing out, you mean on third and nine in 1987? I know everything. Whereas with the Knicks,
Starting point is 01:01:20 because I've always worked every fucking minute and it's weekday shit, basically since 98 and because they sucked shit hole. Beyond sucked. It's like they're the most disrespectful fucking franchise in the world. If there were 16 games of basketball a year,
Starting point is 01:01:33 I'd know everything. Right? On a Sunday. Like football worked for me because I was a workaholic. Anyway, nonetheless, I watch a lot of kids talk a lot of shit about fucking Jordan.
Starting point is 01:01:43 Stop it, man. Don't fucking know. But back to what really matters. Dude, you're a dick for wearing Jordans. I feel you. i watch a lot of kids talk a lot of shit about fucking jordan don't fucking know but that's what really matters dude you're a dick for wearing jordan i feel you but you don't think you don't think jordan transcends the sport i sure don't to me i don't think jordan said i think of sneakers as almost its own sport in a way so it's it's separate to me like when the the argument always is like not the argument always is but the argument has been made, Jordan playing basketball versus Tinker Hatfield, his designer, who's better at their craft. That's cool.
Starting point is 01:02:08 I entertain that. So to me, it's almost a separate idea. I don't think about basketball and the Knicks when I look at these sneakers. Yeah. I think about these sneakers. I think about crying my fucking face off. And that makes sense. From 1992 to 1990.
Starting point is 01:02:20 Yep. I wish Tom Brady's arm fell off his body right now. I wish his head fell off his body. I really don't want him. Did you see the pictures of him, by the way? At the beach? With his fucking hat. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:02:29 He's at the beach today. He is, I mean, he's a doughboy. And that dude's out there just fucking everyone's world up. He is, I mean, he was getting body shamed online. My guy was getting body shamed online. I wasn't about it. I've got to share something. Let me give you an exclusive.
Starting point is 01:02:43 This is devastating for me. This is going to be the first time I publicly say anything good about him in my life. Oh, wow. Because I know my feelings and I trust them. I hate him. I literally want one of his arms to fall off because I think he's still functioning and all that.
Starting point is 01:02:56 Something very terrible happened. I'm in fucking Instagram Explore. Are you sure you want to do this, by the way? I do. Whatever you're about to do. Jets and everything. No, I'm fine because I like. Whatever you're about to do. Jets and everything. No I'm fine because I like being authentic.
Starting point is 01:03:07 Something very bad happened. I literally feel like I'm a boy that found his sexuality like one way or the other. Like something something happened. I felt it.
Starting point is 01:03:16 I'm in Instagram. It moved. It moved. My feeling you know like Lion King I'm on a date with like in high school
Starting point is 01:03:22 and like literally crying my face off at Lion King like lost all equity that I had. I don't mind sharing my truths something terrible happened I'm an Instagram explorer which you know is a thing in its own and there's a clip and it's Brady and for some reason I never I don't even consume anything I'm so pumped right now that Edelman's been super do you know how hard it is to get banned in the NFL? Now that my brother's taking the actual test
Starting point is 01:03:48 to be an agent, you don't even know how I don't think people actually know it's impossible just to save everybody time. It's impossible to get a four game suspension. I love how he looks at the camera. It's just fucking impossible. Anyway, nonetheless, I hate them. Everything's terrible
Starting point is 01:04:04 about them. The level of hate I have for Kraft, Belich Anyway, nonetheless, I hate him. Everything's terrible about them. The level of hate I have for Kraft, Belichick, Brady, real stuff, real hate. Personal hatred. Real hate. Genuinely hate them as people. I hate Bon Jovi now as a Jersey boy because he loves Kraft. I hate Jon Bon Jovi now.
Starting point is 01:04:17 Jersey boy. Guilt by association. Some fucking clip I clicked. I don't know why I fucking clipped it. And it's him and his fucking sons, like doing something in the backyard. And I liked it. And I didn't like the fucking,
Starting point is 01:04:30 no, but you in the inside, I'm like, ah, in the same way that I love that Michael Jordan is actually a terrible human being. Yeah. You've never seen MJ like do anything nice ever.
Starting point is 01:04:40 No, he's a real bad human. Like if you really know what's going on in your, in your superstars, you really know life like bad guy. Yeah. You know, Brady's a real bad human like if you really know what's going on in your in your superstars if you really know life like bad guy yeah you know brady's a good guy i know which is like that actually makes me hate him more so i'm okay with that i'm okay with that because that makes me despise me even more you know what and the reason i can say it is here's what happens in real life i can be rational and that's why i just said that but in sports life i'm completely there's
Starting point is 01:05:05 different realities we talked about this on mail time a few years ago the sports muscles where all of a sudden you become a fucking lunatic that's me yeah i mean gary's like throwing punches he was like beating up a little girl in the stands because she was you know fight yeah what you're referring to and i great memory i hip checked a nine-year-old kid wearing a gronk jersey into a fence for real this is real life like the kid was walking by me man i just hip checked him and his dad lost like looked at me like like in shock and i literally looked him dead in the face and said what the fuck are you gonna do like i literally lose every you're gonna go to jail one day news man. News alert. Here's a quick tweet. I'm not tough. I hate them so much that I'm willing to get my ass beat.
Starting point is 01:05:48 You're going to end up in prison, dude. You know what I mean? We need you to follow through on this buying the Jets dream. I'm going to, brother. Not if you end up in jail for checking nine-year-olds. Yes, I will. And then I'll be the best owner. The opening video is going to be my mugshot.
Starting point is 01:05:59 I'll be like, I'm the fucking most gangster owner ever. I fucking went to jail because I love the Jets so much. Well, hopefully we can start to take even more steps towards that with these sneakers. It's a full release, the 35,000 pairs, which the first one was the Crush It theme. That was kind of a pet project, let's say. Now we're talking about a full release for Clouds and Dirt, Yes. Which I thought was just kind of a color scheme sort of thing. I didn't realize the whole philosophy behind it. It's how I'm going to buy the jets.
Starting point is 01:06:29 It's how you operate, right. It's how I operate. It's how, by the way, just because I love talking sports with you guys, because I love what you guys do with that stuff. It's how the best athletes work, right? Like Ed Reed. So I had dinner with Ed Reed a couple days ago. Yes, yes, a couple days ago.
Starting point is 01:06:45 Motherfucker, literally, I don't even wanna give away his, I don't know if he's ever said this publicly, so I'm not gonna go directly into it. He literally, against one superstar wide receiver who played for three separate teams, knew on every play if the team was gonna run or pass based on how dude broke the huddle. I just want everybody, I'm going to say this one more time.
Starting point is 01:07:07 Ed Reed knew if a team was going to run or pass on every single play based on how a singular superstar wide receiver broke the huddle and how his demeanor and the angle, his first step out of, not how he lined his foot on the line of scrimmage, how he broke the huddle. That is called dirt. That's sitting in the fucking film room while your boys are at the script club while everyone's playing fucking Fortnite.
Starting point is 01:07:38 All these fucking guys are playing Fortnite right now and he's fucking studying film. And Reed didn't get to the Hall of Fame because he's a freak athlete because guess what most of these fuck faces are freak athletes yeah that's bare minimum that's standard at this point right yeah you can't and then and then the other the other reason ed reed the other reason ed reed made it to the hall of fame is the clouds which is why like What are you up to? He wanted to be all time.
Starting point is 01:08:09 He wanted to get the fucking gold jacket. He wanted to be all time. That big picture, grand, almost fantasy type of thing. And that's it. And so for me, it's like, look, I want to buy the Jets. I want to be the most admired entrepreneur of my generation. I don't think that's going to happen because I'm going to make the most money. I also know it's going to need me to make a lot of money
Starting point is 01:08:25 and have entrepreneurial success I can't just be a good guy and admired as a good human I could go do that that's not my wiring but I do wanna be that right like I do wanna have that special place like I'm giving back to entrepreneurs
Starting point is 01:08:36 I'm in my DMs fucking answering these fucking questions bleeding out of my eyes at two o'clock in the morning everyone's like why the fuck do you do that because my clouds is to be the most admired entrepreneur of this generation.
Starting point is 01:08:49 Yeah, that's that next level. And then honestly, bro, I'll be honest with you. I don't want to bullshit anybody who's listening. I don't want it to be, you know, altruistic or anything like it's just how it was my DNA. I was an older brother. Like, I like it. I like being accountable to other people. I like, I like people liking me.
Starting point is 01:09:05 So I don't think that's- But thinking about that legacy is more- 100, that's my- We just walked by the door. It said, well, it doesn't matter what's in your bank account.
Starting point is 01:09:12 It matters how many people come to your funeral. I believe in that shit. That's a great- Or what I tell kids all the time because there's so many fucking hucksters full of shit,
Starting point is 01:09:20 full of shit dudes out there right now selling the lifestyle and trying to trick kids to pay them for the lifestyle. How you make your money is more important than how much you make. You gotta sleep in your bed.
Starting point is 01:09:30 Now look, some people don't have conscience, some people don't give a fuck, some people don't believe, some people think I'm a sucker. A lot of people that really know me, that are kind of like my friends, because it's fun, but like not really my people, they think I'm a sucker.
Starting point is 01:09:43 They know I'm leaving a lot of money on the table. Friends that that want me to buy the jets are like fucking hurry up let's go some of that sucker shit i've been hearing about this for a while let's fucking go man you're gonna be hearing about it for another 25 years because for me unless you're young you're gonna say brother i promise you as soon as i get in there i'm gonna fucking really do work let's go i mean i want to be on this planet when it happens you will man, man. Don't do any dumb shit. You don't have as much time as you think. I get it. You have seven years to buy the jet. So anyway, a couple things.
Starting point is 01:10:11 You're a dick face for wearing Jordans. Tom Brady tricked me with his two fucking sons. And that's my summer so far. The thing I like about clouds and dirt is because sometimes I think your clouds comes off as as like too positive too correct i'm like shut the fuck up gary totally not everyone can be their dreams but i when you mentioned the dirt at least there's something more concrete to it that it's like and you say this too you're like well you got to work both your jobs and work fucking 20 hours a day yeah man like this is not have your clouds guys i wrote crush it not. I wrote Crush It, not The Secret.
Starting point is 01:10:46 Yeah, right, right. If anybody's looking for one last cross T dot the I what I'm up to, I'm practical as fuck. I think everybody's entitled. Everybody thinks they deserve something. The entitlement in the system is obnoxious, especially for this audience.
Starting point is 01:11:01 I know this fucking audience. I live this audience. You're fucking entitled. Bunch of dudes listening right now in fake environments, their daddy's paying for their Uber. And they don't realize that's poison. Like, I'm not mad at, by the way, I'm not mad at you. I'm gonna be so fucking rich,
Starting point is 01:11:15 I'm probably gonna pay for a ton of done shit for Xander. But guess what? Here's the key, fake environments. I'm not gonna make pretend, or let him make pretend, that that's him doing it like you could take all of mom and dad's money all you want but don't walk around like you bought that bmw then don't act like a dick to your buddies because your apartment's better your grandfather paid for that asshole there's an article going viral today how to how to make it
Starting point is 01:11:40 in manhattan on a 25 except you i also get $800 allowance from my parents and they also pay my rent. And that's how they- And that's the punchline, right? And by the way, there's nothing, I want this fully clear on the record. That is your environment, not a fake environment. Punchline being, with me, I don't mind if people think I'm a dick face
Starting point is 01:12:00 or full of shit or a snake oil salesman at first because the truth always wins. Dude, 80% of your audience right now that knows who I am fucking hated me at first right I understand why because I'm out here suffocating excuses not because I think I'm a tough guy because it's the only way to win the only way to win is to acknowledge what the fuck is actually happening and work backwards and like yeah it's like self-awareness hard work you got to acknowledge what the fuck is actually happening and work backwards and like yeah it's like self-awareness hard work you got to do all the right stuff and like you know big proponents of self-awareness over here it matters but that's where i also think that your your preaching is like there are plenty of people who are self-aware we're probably like i can't do that i want to do
Starting point is 01:12:40 that but i'm not gonna be fucking able i'm not talented enough i'm not you know my buddy listen i grew up in fucking like pretty humble beginnings and like all the way through post-college and like Mount Ida College, which doesn't even fucking exist anymore. My college went. That sounds like a main school. I was, I feel like I had heard of it before. It was around.
Starting point is 01:12:55 Out of business. It just went out of business. It just happened though, right? My college. I definitely had a friend who went to Mount Ida. My college no longer exists. It's now UMass Amherst, but let's call it what it is. It's not.
Starting point is 01:13:06 Like they just took the campus. So anyway, I grew up like in humble places. Most of my buddies in my life are making between $29,000 and $53,000 a year. And let me tell you something right now that I went to school with, especially college, you know, $50,000, $60,000 a year. They're way fucking happier than my buddies
Starting point is 01:13:24 that I met in Silicon Valley making 7 million. By the way, way happier. Not always. Yeah, but you know what? I'd like to try that out. I'll try the $7 million thing out and I'll decide whether or not I should.
Starting point is 01:13:34 We're talking about quotes and whatnot. By the way, by the way, do it. One of my favorite ones ever is still the Jim Carrey one where Jim Carrey goes, I hope everyone gets all their hopes and dreams to see that's not what you want. Right, what you think is your dream
Starting point is 01:13:44 doesn't actually end up being your dream. How much money did Anthony Bourdain have? Yeah. Dude, let's get fucking serious here for a minute. I thought it was like a million, right? It wasn't a lot? I don't know, but guess what? Way more than all the people that say money buys you happiness.
Starting point is 01:13:54 Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Everything's grass is greener. So the punchline being, look, to me this is a happiness game, and it's about, the reason I love self-awareness is awesome. If you're on two fucking softball teams, you're in a dart league, you play Fortnite all night.
Starting point is 01:14:10 You said that so condescendingly. Dart league. Fucking loser. Dart league. No, no, no, no. You're making 47 a year. Your job is whatever. You're at all your kids' fucking softball,
Starting point is 01:14:23 you know, like basketball games. You're on two softball teams dart league i think is excessive but fuck it and you fucking watch video you know you watch sports all weekend or whatever the fuck you're into you fish all weekend and you're thrilled that is what i'm pushing right i'm not pushing like work your dick off and be a fuck and build an empire like i'm talking about like i'm so pumped because I love working so much. I'm probably sandbagging myself back to what I was saying earlier. Yeah. I love the fucking process.
Starting point is 01:14:49 Right. Yeah. I mean, that's just your, that's your fixation. That's what you want. So you're doing it. Yes.
Starting point is 01:14:54 And if you're dreaming, I'm going to end up in the clouds. I'm going to tell everybody who shit on me. I fucking told you, Dick, I'm going to win seven Superbowls. That's, that's where it comes from is the competitive nature.
Starting point is 01:15:04 Guys, you know, come on. You have beaten our KK. Let's where it comes from, is the competitive nature. Dude, you know what, guys, you know what? Come on, you gotta beat an RKK, let's relax. I promise you right now, I will, because I will. Let's start with one, bro. Let's get to one for me. I'd like to get to one Super Bowl. I'm going to, I can feel it.
Starting point is 01:15:17 It's my fucking destiny, but it's not because it was meant to be, it's because I'm gonna fucking earn it. And the punchline really is, is like, you've gotta figure out what process you love, and I and i got lucky like my process is also a money-making process but you know the reality is like man a lot of my artist friends who like you know the range of actual fame to like love it like art is fascinating to me as i get older because that's a really happy place for a lot of people regardless of sad place a sad place for a lot of people too. I get it.
Starting point is 01:15:45 I get it because they're insecure. This is about fucking self-esteem. Self-awareness is only trumped by self-esteem. If you have self-esteem and you fucking are happy with yourself, you get real happy. You don't give a fuck as an artist. I was going to say, that sounds like a pipe dream. You want to win seven Super Bowls and own the Jets?
Starting point is 01:16:03 I'm just trying to be happy. I'm just trying to like myself okay that's where that's that's my process my empire honestly listen listen we're tongue-in-cheeking here a little bit i get literally no joke like 500 to a thousand dms of kids who don't like themselves whose fucking parents shit on them every day and that's what they believe all these people have shitty thoughts in their head. Somebody put it in there. And honestly, I'm being dead fucking serious. I want to pull it out.
Starting point is 01:16:29 DRock, you got my card? Watch this. This is super important to me. This means a lot. While we're getting the card, big shout out to you guys for vlogging. I gave you some daps before. You'll probably catch it in the vlog,
Starting point is 01:16:40 but now that we're doing the podcast, you guys are doing it. I'm really, no, no, really, I'm really impressed. You know, listen, I think everyone sucks shit. I'm really impressed, I love the vlog. We're gonna put, I'm vlogging right now, we're gonna give a huge cosign and a link. I want everybody fucking subscribing, you're doing it.
Starting point is 01:16:57 Do you know what this is? I was at a shoe palace in LA yesterday doing a Clouds and Dirt signing, right? For all those people that troll me and say I'm a dick or I'm doing it for selfish, this is a gun license from the state of California. And a woman came up to me and said, I want you to have this because I don't need it anymore.
Starting point is 01:17:15 And I said, what do you mean? And she started to cry. She got a gun license to go buy a gun to shoot her fucking face off. And one video on one Instagram thing got her intrigued. Similar to the Brady fucking shit that I got caught on, she got caught.
Starting point is 01:17:30 One video, one time on Instagram and fucking changed the course of her life. This woman, this is not ha ha or somebody peacocking. Here's the fucking license. Anyway, anyway, bro, I can win 700 fucking Super Bowls. here's the fucking license. Anyway, needed it for here. Anyway, bro I could win 700 fucking Super Bowls, I'm gonna have a real tough time replicating the high
Starting point is 01:17:52 of that fucking eight seconds. And so like look, I don't give a fuck that people judge me on social here and there occasionally. First of all, I'm gonna win them over anyway because I'm gonna fucking win and I'm a good dude. And second of all, that fucking moment
Starting point is 01:18:05 you can take all 50,000 you're a dick you think you're better whatever the fuck they're thinking right now doesn't hold a candle and that's it man like I'm a happy dude
Starting point is 01:18:15 and I want fucking other people to be happy and there's a lot of people looking to not be happy and looking at things that make them unhappy and I wanna change people's perspectives
Starting point is 01:18:24 and then I wanna tell the other thing I give a fuck, and I wanna change people's perspectives. And then I wanna tell, the other thing I give a fuck about is I wanna tell people like, yo, you know what, ready? Because I love this audience so much. By the way, I love your audience so much. Like I consume. That makes one of us. That son of a bitch is.
Starting point is 01:18:36 I literally make, I only consume, the only thing I consume, I don't watch shit. Outside of Jets fucking football, no shit. All I do is read people's feedback on content. I know everything in the world, like shows and podcasts. I've never listened to any of your shit. Ever.
Starting point is 01:18:51 But I'm telling you right now, it's crazy how much I know because I consume people consuming you. Anyway, to me, here's a good one. You don't have any money? You want a couple,
Starting point is 01:19:01 you want $1,000 real quick? It's fucking crazy. It's called Craigslist Facebook. I don't care if you deleted your Facebook, re-un-fucking-state it. Here it is. You go to Craigslist free. There's free shit on Craigslist. It's in the classifieds. It says free.
Starting point is 01:19:16 It's fucking old school TVs and all this horse shit. But very occasionally there's something worth $20 to $50 to $100. You go and pick it up. You then go home and you list it on Facebook Marketplace for 20 to 50 bucks. You do that 100 times, you've got money. It sounds like a lot of work, man.
Starting point is 01:19:34 You gotta pick up old TVs in someone's basement. It is fucking work. You know how many dick faces are working for nine bucks an hour at fucking Chick-fil-A? Yeah, I mean, you work smarter, right? The old adage. For a lot of people, people when I put out this stuff they're like you're a dick gary you can make so much money being an influencer i'm like yeah cool like fucking somebody's got a fat ass who gets like
Starting point is 01:19:51 brand deals but not everybody fucking signs up for in here's black and white like get your fucking car i don't also you're making a lot of money man these people are knocking you for not making enough money it's like you're doing pretty fucking good man who me yeah you oh they think back to what you set it up which is like i think it's so easy i think it's fucking hard like you like you know like it's fucking hard i just think you should do it instead of complaining yeah i mean well the amount of people we get from our audience that you know as well now i mean he knows he's drinking he has all your Kool-Aid. He has brainwashed as it comes, bro. Why?
Starting point is 01:20:26 Why? Why? Yeah, why? I mean, I was looking for something new to do and these guys were, you know, out here creating already.
Starting point is 01:20:33 He took what you did and brought us. I said, over in the car ride, I said, thanks to Barstool Sports, people that created it, these guys,
Starting point is 01:20:42 and Gary Vaynerchuk. You are right here in this room. We wouldn't have started the podcast by every crush. No way. That's it, man. people that created it, these guys, and Gary Vaynerchuk. We wouldn't start the podcast by re-crushing it. No way. That's the difference, though, between the same audience you're talking about forever comes to us. I could be a blogger. I could be a podcaster. I could do this. I could do that.
Starting point is 01:20:56 I'm like, all right, show me your blog or show me your Instagram account. Show me your podcast. I don't have one. You probably can't do this. You don't even have the first step. You know's funny you can do this if you realize that you're fucking full of shit like yeah that that's where people don't like you and they shouldn't if they're still full of shit do you people go from hating me to loving me because something else happens or they've seen it for the 19th time and they're like, oh, fuck, I'm full of shit.
Starting point is 01:21:27 Do you, is there any valid, is there any valid excuse? Yeah, and that's really what it comes down to. That's where I think our self-awareness and self-awareness is key because you realize what you are and what you're not. And the fact that I'm willing to get shit on in the short term because I know it actually brings you value, that comes from self-esteem. Do you think there's any valid excuse? Could someone give you an excuse that you're like, all right, yeah, you're right. We gotta work around that.
Starting point is 01:21:47 You know what's really interesting? There's a million things. You know, like being abducted as a child, your house burning. There's a million things. My big thing is if your mindset allows you to dwell or complain, you have no prayer of the next step.
Starting point is 01:22:05 There are people whose house is burnt down and they lost everything, who literally fucking say, oh my God, thank God nobody was in the house. And like everyone's alive and like fuck, we didn't have insurance and fuck, we have to live with my sister and fuck, we've gotta like really grind out, right?
Starting point is 01:22:22 But thank God, right? And there's other people who even have money saved they're like fuck now i can't buy the second house why me like how fucking rare is it for us fucking houses don't fucking burn down like oh you know and like you know and so i lost my fucking gary v sneaker collection you know what i mean yeah yeah and that's it man and so like to me it's like i think i think life is unfair i think that people start at shittier spots than others. I think that there's a million potential valid excuses. My big thing is, cool, but I'm in the comma business.
Starting point is 01:22:54 Like, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, comma, now what? And so, like, I don't downplay anything. So let me give you our comma then. Please. So we are, we had the first podcast. We have been doing it, like, the longest. We we, we are, we had the first podcast. We have been doing it like the longest. We are, you know,
Starting point is 01:23:08 we're not Portnoy. We're not the pardon my take group. We've been doing this like the longest we have. I feel like a lot of your advice and whatnot is to build the content, to build the audience. I feel like we have the audience and we're almost doing it backwards. Okay. That comma,
Starting point is 01:23:24 like what, what would be the next step for this crew right here? you want to happen next i want to make a fuck ton of money okay great well that's really easy so okay there's a bunch of ways you know if that's easy if you're in the personality media business the way to make money is sponsorship or merchandise or ancillary things outside leveraging the leverage you have, aka, dude, you know what's scary? This is like, somebody would pay $4,000
Starting point is 01:23:52 to watch a Mets game with you. They're out there. I really just, I kind of just fundamentally, like I'm completely positive. Okay. Positive, not even kind of because- That's a good start. Yeah, that's a great start yeah it's a great
Starting point is 01:24:05 start here's a great start you're literally about to make four thousand dollars yep now here's the question do you want to sit with somebody else and actually sit and deliver on the fact that somebody paid you so for me i am willing to do a ton of things for 25k but if you offered me 86 million to sit with well i'd take that but this is real because i want to not bullshit i would definitely not take 300 000 to let somebody sit with me during a jets game because that's my safe place precious for you yeah that's too precious right so there's 100 grand you're saying no i swear on the fuck i swear my children's health i would like to put on record that I would take 300 grand to have anyone do
Starting point is 01:24:47 anything. I'll take 300 grand. You could kill me. You're going to shoot me with a gun for 300 grand room and do whatever the fuck you want. What's the lowest, what's the, what's the lowest amount of money you're willing to take?
Starting point is 01:25:03 Let's go backwards. I want to focus on this. It's important to lock you in a room and literally do anything to you what's the actual floor because 300,000 yes but what's the floor because we play this hypothetical game all the time and money's always about you can fucking do it and live it that's that's the difference here yeah yeah be careful because i'm about to say yes i want ratings i want ratings just so everybody knows'm about to say yes. I want ratings. I want ratings. Just so everybody knows. I'm going to say yes.
Starting point is 01:25:29 Waterboard Feidelberg. 400 bucks. No, I don't know what the actual ceiling is for. So do anything you want to me. Don't undersell yourself. You're talking to a guy with that money, man. We'll let you think on that one.'s keep this ship it's six figures all right by the way by the way i've been negotiating my whole life i'll give you a quick answer it's a
Starting point is 01:25:54 hundred thousand guys it's a hundred thousand everyone just so everybody if you want i'm giving business tips out here anytime anybody said to me, it's fucking six figures. I'm like, cool, a hundred thousand. So what else is happening? What do you think about, I feel like the, my hope and thought for Barstool is that I think the world of advertising, everything is just slowly coming around on like no bullshit. So ready for this, bro? I've been in three meetings. This is real talk now, you know, cause VaynerMedia is a big fucking ad agency.
Starting point is 01:26:24 I've been in three meetings where we sit down and now. You know, because VaynerMedia is a big fucking ad agency. I've been in three meetings where we sit down and go, this brand needs to win 18 to 25. Blah, blah, blah, meow. Right? Blah, blah, blah. Immediately, always out of my mouth. I go, you know DRock. DRock's shaking his head like it's falling off his body
Starting point is 01:26:38 because I say it every time. I'm like, you should advertise on Barstool. Every time. Right? I say it every time. And what happens every time right i say it every time and what happens every time they're like you know like they're like oh it's just a little too recent you know what the answer is right when does that when does that stop very soon is that is that is that a matter of getting
Starting point is 01:26:55 the right people to the right bro howard stern used to have like the government against him, and now it's like, what Miley Cyrus did on the VMAs like six years ago is like a lame post on Instagram. Like nothing now. Nothing. So by the way, good news, you're young as fuck,
Starting point is 01:27:16 hold on, it's coming. Because here's why, they can't reach 18 to 25 year old dudes any other way. You can't reach anybody anymore. Everything is smoke and mirrors, nothing is authentic. We're the only ones that can deliver. You're in a great spot. They'll buy the shirt, they'll buy the ticket. You can't reach anybody anymore. Everything is smoke and mirrors. Nothing is authentic.
Starting point is 01:27:25 We're the only ones that can deliver like, they'll buy the shirt, they'll buy the ticket. You're in a great fucking spot. Have you heard about our band? Our pop punk band? No, but I fucking love it.
Starting point is 01:27:33 We had four guys. What about the pay-per-view shit you did? Yeah, so we got Ruff and Rowdy. We did a pay-per-view for this pop punk band too. These guys, we had one that played the guitar,
Starting point is 01:27:40 one that played bass, drums, and a front man. And they got together as like a joke to make some content. It was like overly emo pop songs. They sold out Irving Plaza. We did a pay-per-view for it.
Starting point is 01:27:49 You know what's crazy about that? That's remarkable because that usually takes young women to be fans of to pop. The fact that you did that to dudes is really A, an interesting insight to your audience. And two, we got more chicks than you think too though. We got guys who are in touch with their feelings we got chicks we got it all you're not wrong you're not wrong goddamn right i'm not i'm not wrong just to talk about a movie it's just like hey we're gonna come here and talk about a movie you guys have attention because you're spitting truth people always love
Starting point is 01:28:18 truth it's why i'm blindly plenty people talk shit about you guys too like like i prefer people to talk like listen if people aren't talking shit about you guys too. Like I prefer people to talk, listen, if people aren't talking shit about you in the beginning, you've already lost. Like that's real life. Like if people don't talk shit about you in the beginning, you've lost.
Starting point is 01:28:36 You know what people have been shitting on in the last decade? Let me tell you about how it broke down. Ready? Here's what Hollywood shit on seven years ago. Netflix. Everybody who's listening right now that's in the Hollywood game.
Starting point is 01:28:47 You know I'm right. You know it 100%. You probably did it too. Seven years ago when Netflix got brought up, you didn't even acknowledge it as a thing. You were like, whatever. You didn't think it was gonna become bigger than HBO and the networks
Starting point is 01:29:00 and fucking everything combined. You know what else people shit on? Esports. You mean all those fucking assholes playing video games? Ninja's fucking more famous than every baseball player together, not just Mike Trout and Bryce Harper.
Starting point is 01:29:12 Like, what do people understand? Like, people always shit on things in the beginning, and then that person's a fucking genius. Well, let me ask you this about the truth, though, because I feel like the eternal struggle is like when you're doing branded content. It's like, I'm still trying to spit that truth and be authentic. But every single person you talk to, every agency you talk to today was like, eh, they're a little too this and that.
Starting point is 01:29:33 Like where is that balance? Or do you just say fuck the balance? You fucking fuck them and wait for them to go out of business. Yeah. They're not going to get to 18. Dude, one brand, I'm so glad. I really usually can't hold out, but I think I'm going to get their business business so i don't want to lose it right now fuck it i'll take it they were like hey we gotta win 18 to 25 i say barcelona tell them what i would do to not tell them why
Starting point is 01:29:51 the fuck me a 42 year old fucking businessman like those dudes like to like i'm giving them the fucking they pitched me their shit i was like whoa i was, not only is this not gonna work 15 to 25, I'm like, you're gonna make 49-year-old dorky dudes in fucking the worst parts of the country think you're dorky. Like, you don't fit. You might, like, 88-year-old Hal, who's, like, got three hearing aids,
Starting point is 01:30:20 might be like, yo, you're lame. Like, it was like, like, it wasn't even, usually when people tell me like. The ideas they come with are so fucking bad. You know what they come with. Usually, I gotta go? Yeah. Where am I going?
Starting point is 01:30:32 You're going to dinner. A 7 p.m. one? Yeah. And I'm like 20 minutes away? Yeah. So like we're already fucked? Yeah. Okay, but we can buy like seven minutes.
Starting point is 01:30:41 Like we're fucking getting going here. I know, that's why. Okay, so fucking, you know what minutes. We're fucking getting going here. I know. That's why. Okay, so fucking, you know what they normally pitch. Yeah, he knows. You know, 15 to 25, and they pitch you something for 42-year-old Stan, right?
Starting point is 01:30:52 Which is fine. But this was like 88-year-old Hal. And that's it, man. You just wait. Fucking Stern didn't get advertisers either, then he got all the money. So we're just gonna stay the course. Okay.
Starting point is 01:31:02 You guys don't know any... Which is also the easiest thing to do. I like that. Guys, guys, ready for this? Don't change anything. I have good just going to stay the course. Okay. You guys don't know any, which is also the easiest thing to do. So I like guys, ready for this. I have good news. I have good news. You're not capable of anything else. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:31:12 It's so fucking true. Like I know it's true. By the way, I know it cause it's what happened to me, bro. I could be doing a hundred million more a year here. If I didn't go into the fucking offices of these brands and saying, you're a fucking idiot.
Starting point is 01:31:24 You know, that tends to not be an opening line that tends to win. Yes Tyler. You have to get on a call about cannabis. About cannabis? That's important. The client thing? The client thing?
Starting point is 01:31:36 Three minutes ago? Fuck. Alright. Do it man. No no no we're not done here yet. Let's go buy me five here. Is this a bit? Is this like a Gary Vaynerchuk bit? Alright and then at the end of the interview you come in and say we're late for dinner Do it, man. No, no, no. We're not done here yet. Buy me five here. Is this like a Gary Vaynerchuk bit?
Starting point is 01:31:48 And then at the end of the interview, you come in and say we're late for dinner and late for a call. It's not, but it's a good idea. Actually, you know what? The macro was the bit, though. I started DailyVee because three years ago I realized everybody thought me hustling was a bit. And I was like, fuck, man.
Starting point is 01:32:06 I can't get through these kids unless they actually see it for real, for real. Because they think I'm just selling it. They think I think it's cool. I don't think it's cool to be a workaholic. I think it's cool to love what you fucking do. Like if you're fucking a teacher and you love it more than breathing because you get the same high that I get from that or the DMs when you see a kid fucking, right? I get that.
Starting point is 01:32:29 So, you know, anyway, nonetheless, I literally started the vlog. This is facts. I started the vlog just so there was no debate of how much I actually am working.

Starting point is 01:33:43 oh my God, and Gary also reaches out to me. I'll tell you why. Because you think I have expectations. The reason you think it's bullshit is because you think there's an expectation on the give.

Starting point is 01:35:48 Do you think Darnold's going to be good? On the record, historic, we're going to recall this clip. No. You don't. No. You're fucking wrong. I hope I am. But listen, every time you've done your optimistic bullshit about the Jets, you've been wrong.
Starting point is 01:35:58 What are you talking about? Because it never fucking turns out good ever. Me? What are you talking about? I'm on fire. Ready? I'm on fire with the Jets. Here we go.
Starting point is 01:36:04 These are clips on the internet fuck face ready my jet season prediction two years ago three years ago with the fits year i nailed it 10 and 6 i was 100 right everybody thought they would have shit season they still missed the playoffs which is devastating when you win 10 games go google mark sanchez draft yeah you're the face you're the face of that i'm not saying you're one of these overly optimistic people i'm saying saying that you still... I'm devastatingly not optimistic. I'm a fucking Jets fan. I know, but you still ride with it. I don't ride with it. You ready for this?
Starting point is 01:36:31 This is how I think about business. This is suffocating bullshit. I will tell you my truth. I don't want to over or under. Because I want to... Look, now everything's being filmed. I think the coolest thing is to be historically correct. Here's what I'm historically incorrect about. Vernon fucking Golston.
Starting point is 01:36:48 Yeah. That fucking clip. A lot of people were wrong about that one. Yeah, that one was devastating. You watch the clip, I'm cheering. Revis, I lost my mind out of excitement. I was right. Like, especially since we started VaynerSports,
Starting point is 01:37:00 like I wanted, like documented, I wanted Deshaun Watson and Alvin Kamara in round two. I would have been a fucking genius. I'm willing to be wrong, right? I was wrong about Porzingis. Not a, I didn't boo him. Mine was more like, I don't fucking know. Right?
Starting point is 01:37:12 I booed him. Like I had no fucking clue. With the Knicks, you still have your courtside seats. You'll pay for those forever. You'll go to it forever. You don't care enough about it to like, to ever think like, fuck James Dolan. I want to support this bullshit.
Starting point is 01:37:28 You're not one of those guys. everybody who's mad at the owner dude i have no feelings towards anybody involved except the people currently wearing the jersey no fuck that with these teams it's all top down not to me if you don't think that team that james dolan is the problem i hate tom brady more than of course i think that's what i mean it's all top down so why are you gonna blame anybody wearing a jersey? Because I don't blame, I don't fucking complain about shit I can't control. Well, I do. Because that's what, if I complain about what you should complain about, whether I can control it or not,
Starting point is 01:37:51 I'm going to complain about James Dolan because it's been a revolving door. Now let's play out this far. Don't get me, everyone's ready to fucking, we're planning a parade because of Knox. It's fucking, it's fucking Kevin Moss all over again.
Starting point is 01:38:02 They're all, do you know what Kevin Moss is or are you too young? Oh, you're a Mets fan too. I grew up a Jets Yankee fan. Yeah, you're one of those gypsies. It makes no sense. Well, sure it does. I was born in Russia, so there was no history of family fandom.
Starting point is 01:38:12 And I went to New Jersey. It's not about that. It's about your mindset. So like when it's baseball season, you're like a cocky asshole. No, you don't know me at all. Let me tell you what happened. Charlie Hayes caught the ball in 96. I fucking got very happy.
Starting point is 01:38:23 I weirdly saw Herb Williams on the way out i high fived him he was super pumped that anybody knew who the fuck he was and uh that was the best night of his life i missed the whole dynasty i got my win i got out same thing with the rangers i got my win i got out i only enjoyed one yankee world series i'm all about the climb wow period as a matter of fact i'm raising my kids met fans yeah no no wait wait wait wait stop stop stop cancel the fucking dinner cancel all of it we're about to have a fucking this is real that like i'm gonna call child protective services that's fucked up no no i'm being serious i don't think so look at me that's fucked up i don't think so you are cursing your kids to a life that is not fun. And it's one thing if it's you.
Starting point is 01:39:06 Yeah, because I almost have to. That's fucked up. I just want to fuck with my son. You know what? I'm going to chop my kids' hands off, too. I'm going to make their life so miserable and so much more difficult than it needs to be. What do you think is one of the— Now I'm sweating and getting fired up.
Starting point is 01:39:20 That is so sick, man. What is the best part about sports that I don't think people talk enough about? I couldn't tell you because nothing in my sports life is good because I'm rooting for teams like the Mets. Let me help you. Here it is. The best thing about sports
Starting point is 01:39:34 that people don't talk about is the kinship you make with your homies being miserable. Everybody right now, you don't even know that. He seems to have a good fucking time. He doesn't have any germ oil. He's a Boston, you're a Boston fan.oston fan ready look grew up like right in that era you admit this deep
Starting point is 01:39:51 you know what i admitted something terrible you're about to admit something terrible ready okay deep deep deep i know what you're gonna say i know you're gonna say he's a p we we we don't want to be him he's a piece of shit he's won all the titles he's a piece of shit and i don't want to be him. He's a piece of shit. He's won all the titles. He's a piece of shit. And I don't know if I want to be him. But I want to be something like him. He's won all four sports, right? Yes. He has not, by the way, you want to know the best part
Starting point is 01:40:13 about 68-year-old Boston dudes and chicks that are sports fans? They shit on him. Yeah, well, they're entitled. They've won everything. He didn't work for anything. As a matter of fact, ready for this? I'm convinced that he, well, they're entitled. They've won everything. He didn't work for anything. As a matter of fact, ready for this? I'm convinced that he, him, will be less good at life.
Starting point is 01:40:31 That his upside in life was stunted. Stunted because he won all four championships. When you win all four championships, by the age of 20. I like to chime in here. I'll give you this. Tyler, I like to chime in here. I will. I'll give you this. Tyler, I know we have to go,
Starting point is 01:40:50 but like Jesus, we're always on fucking time. We can wait a fucking couple of minutes. I don't totally disagree with what you're saying. Where yesterday I was happier, but I wasn't on this fucking awesome show. What? I was a bigger sports fan in 2003.
Starting point is 01:41:02 Of course you were. So what you're right, you're right. Here's the real thing. Dude dude it's been all taken away from him fine but you are taking sports i hate to say this because it sounds ridiculous coming from me you almost take sports too seriously where it's like you can just enjoy your fucking life i genuinely believe what i just said on everything i don't think he'll be as successful in life because what about what about people who are just not sports what's that What about people who are just not sports fans? What's that?
Starting point is 01:41:25 What about people who are just not sports fans? Well, of course they're not affected. They're not affected. So you're saying just whatever your passion is, if you get to the mountain. Here's the best part of loser Boston fans under 35. They think they did something. No, that's not true.
Starting point is 01:41:39 Dave Portnoy doesn't think he did something. Dave Portnoy's 42. Ready? Ready? He thinks he's 21. So it all kind of comes out together. Subcon... This is why...
Starting point is 01:41:47 You know, when you just said that, I felt so terrible. Here's why. You don't even realize it's happening to you. No, really. It's subconscious bias. It's in your dumb brain. There's an entitlement.
Starting point is 01:41:55 I mean, I don't think I had anything to do with the positive sports. No, no, no. Of course. That's just a fact. Ready? Ready? Practically.
Starting point is 01:42:01 But you carry yourself with that Britney Spears t-shirt like you did. Britney t-shirt is fire. Guys, I know, right? I'm telling you guys, I know what I'm talking about. Sports victories are a way to disguise insecurities. They come in two forms.
Starting point is 01:42:17 They come in the entitled... I think you're disguising your loser insecurities right now. No, no, no. Explain what I'm saying. This sounds a little too intense where it's like like I think you've concocted a whole fucking... Stick with me. Tell me what's wrong with this picture.
Starting point is 01:42:31 You live in Denver, Colorado and you just bought a Lakers LeBron jersey. I'll tell you what's wrong with it. You put on that Laker LeBron jersey and you think you're something. It's giving you a projection of wintership into the world. You better fucking get a Nuggets jersey yesterday, dickface.
Starting point is 01:42:53 I believe in that shit, bro. I mean, I agree with you. There's a lot of fans like that. So that's, ready? That's one. That's the real bad one. My friends, if you're listening right now and you live in Albuquerque, New Mexico, well, actually, that's not fair. If you live in San Antonio, this is a perfect one. My friends, if you're listening right now and you live in Albuquerque, New Mexico,
Starting point is 01:43:05 well, actually that's not fair. If you live in San Antonio, this is a perfect one. If you live, actually, if you fucking live in New York city and you're walking around with a Steph Curry or Durant or LeBron Jersey, you're a fucking loser. Kill yourself. Get your fucking zinger, fucking put it on and stop being a dick. I I'm, I'm totally on board with that are you because you're a fucking knicks fan who wears jordan i i think that the way how serious like i don't i think that you can enjoy sports because i know what you're talking about like when i finally win one it's gonna be it's gonna mean more and i have character because i lost yeah and then i got to a point where i was like all of that is so fucking dramatic all i want to do is just not have to bash my brains out every time i watch my fucking yeah there's some
Starting point is 01:43:49 level of that i'm the reverse i love the process i love the loser trust the process i love the fuck no no i don't trust be careful be careful i don't trust the process i fucking enjoy the process yes i love going to foxborough in that and by the way foxborough what a piece of shit place i go to that place by the way our owner paid for it by himself yeah that's fine he didn't hold the town hostage to make them pay for all the taxes and all that shit oh whoa whoa he said he said i'll pay this out of my pocket oh you know what's very fun about youngsters they don't know their history is that so mister they that robert craft paid for john stadium how did the whole narrative go down?
Starting point is 01:44:25 Oh, when he threatened to leave the Hartford. I know that. Yeah. I mean, look, you can do some negotiation. You can do some negotiating and then go, I'll still cut the check. Do a little negotiating and then I'll pay for it. Listen, here's the bottom line. I give the Patriots a lot
Starting point is 01:44:41 of credit for getting obnoxiously lucky in the sixth round of an NFL draft. I give them lot of credit for getting obnoxiously lucky in the sixth round of an NFL draft. Sure. Right? I give them tons of credit for that luck. Right? But here's the bottom line.
Starting point is 01:44:51 Not all luck, by the way. Bro, real serious. I mean, no team's carry. Tom Brady's luck. The Patriots' success is not luck. Tom Brady is luck, but also— Period. Period.
Starting point is 01:45:00 You don't carry— Period. Quote him. I want that in a tweet. Guys, Tom Brady's luck. What team ever had four quarterbacks that they kept throughout the whole season on the draft chart? Ready for this?
Starting point is 01:45:10 Ready for this? None. Not ever. They said, we're keeping this guy, Tom, because we know he's good. Ready for this? I give the Patriots a lot. I can rationally understand that there's a lot of smart and good work there. I don't call it luck.
Starting point is 01:45:22 I don't think it's luck at all. But I have bad news, my man. Tom Brady is straight fucking luck. It was lucky, no doubt. 30 teams passed on him. Including the Patriots five times. But to say we're keeping him when they have-
Starting point is 01:45:33 That wasn't hard. He's fourth on the depth chart. They said, there's something here. We're keeping this kid. No one's ever kept four quarterbacks on the depth chart. People keep four quarterbacks. That's seeing something in someone.
Starting point is 01:45:41 That's not all luck. Bottom line is, they got unbelievably lucky. And here's the bottom line. The two people, let's wrap it up with this nice bow. Adversity is the foundation of success. I believe in that shit so much. Well, then I'm going to be successful as fuck somehow
Starting point is 01:45:56 because all I've ever done is watch. I'm really seriously mad about your kids. I can't get that out of my brain. Ready for this? The two fuck faces of all time in sports are Tom Brady and Michael Jordan, right? about your kids. I can't get that out of my brain. Ready for this? The two fuck faces of all time in sports are Tom Brady and Michael Jordan, right? Michael Jordan, you're a person at this point,
Starting point is 01:46:11 legitimately got cut from his sophomore basketball team. Like for real, for real. And by the way, let's all be very smart. That's also bullshit, right? It was like a varsity team when he was a freshman or whatever. That's fine. But like most dudes in the NBA Like don't have that experience So he put a fucking chip
Starting point is 01:46:26 On his shoulder And he became a fucking Son of a bitch Brady Was the backup quarterback In his college Before he entered the NFL Like fuck
Starting point is 01:46:37 That's a real chip He went six round He watched a bunch of jokers Go ahead of him Like Adversity He split time So
Starting point is 01:46:43 He was the backup he split they started the rose bowl drew henson was the fucking quarterback and so the bottom line is this real adversity so if sports is your life and you're a boston fan under 35 you had no fucking adversity dickface
