Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, KFC Radio listeners, you can find every episode of KFC Radio on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. It's another edition of KFC Radio, brought to you by Burrow. My man Bob Fox is in the building. He lives with Big Daddy Trent. They hang out on a Burrow couch. Maybe they're watching a little Bachelor in Paradise. Maybe they're watching a little MCU.
Starting point is 00:00:22 Whatever they're watching. Drinking some whole milk, perhaps. I'm not a whole milk guy. You're not a holy. L whatever they're watching drinking some whole milk perhaps i'm not a whole milk you're out on you're not a holy lactose oh wow that doesn't surprise me i have as many allergies as i look like i have i love i always love jokes just making fun of yourself like that and we're speaking of bob in here for pup punk it reminded me of jeff d lowe when we were going to pup punk in um okay yeah i'm okay and we're taking the train in and like a bunch of people had gotten off at a stop we had a few more stops so we're like oh we're all gonna sit together now and i went over to the you know
Starting point is 00:00:57 the seats face each other those sections and jeff d lowe just sitting with like tight with his backpack in his lap and he's just not sliding in. And he just looks up at me and goes, come on, you had to have predicted I was going to be weird about this. Come on, you know I'm a weirdo. You know I'm a misfit. I don't like this at all. When you know it.
Starting point is 00:01:20 All right, Jeff Lo. I get it. I'll step over you. You know I'm a weirdo CD free. Come on now. That's very funny. You got to do a prediction. That's going to be a weirdo.
Starting point is 00:01:30 Well, maybe even Jeff D. Lowe has a burrow because it's the official couch of Barstool Sports because it's a smart couch. That means it has a USB plug in it, which means you can charge your phone at all times. So whenever we're sitting out watching a game, watching a movie, whatever it is, as we live tweet, your phone's never going to die. That's ultra important for Barstool. It's pretty much important for anyone living in the modern world. Also important is that you can break these things down. You can customize the size. You can customize the length of the legs, the width
Starting point is 00:01:59 of the armrests. Also, you can fit into your apartment. Twice, I've bought a couch that just did not fit into my New York City apartment. I was just like, well, this is now worthless. Aren't you supposed to do measurements? You are supposed to do that. You are supposed to do that. As a person who's moved many apartments. Never done it. Never. Also, the one time I finally did do it,
Starting point is 00:02:20 I measured my apartment, and I didn't measure the elevator. So, even when I thought I was being smart and mature, I still fucked myself. Want to hear a crazy elevator story from this morning? Sure. I saw a girl in my building do an elevator ride of shame for the first time. So, like, I'm on, like, a middle floor in my building. From the top floor, elevator comes down.
Starting point is 00:02:39 I get on. There's a girl in the elevator. Didn't even really, like, look at her. And she says, wait, are you going to the lobby? And I look. She has the third floor clicked, and she's holding her heels in her hand. Love it. It was unreal.
Starting point is 00:02:50 That's great. Yeah. She lives on three. She pops up to like 16, bangs this guy, pops back down. What a move. I like how she wears high heels to the guy's apartment. High heels and a dress. Classy.
Starting point is 00:03:02 She might be a hooker. Oh, fuck, true. I got to head up floor three. So get yourself a Burrow. She's probably having sex on them. You can get, like I said, everything customizable, and everything will make sure you fit into your apartment. They can disassemble it, reassemble it,
Starting point is 00:03:19 and it all mails to your house for free with one-week shipping. Free shipping on a couch, by the way. I always say this every time. It's a big deal. Usually it's like $250. Go to burrow.com slash KFC. That's B-U-R-R-O-W dot com slash KFC. Get $75 off your new sofa.
Starting point is 00:03:36 It's a hell of an ad read right there. You got a whole goddamn podcast segment, basically. Basically. Bob Fox is here. We got to talk a little Spider-Man, but he is wearing, if you're watching on Barstool Gold, go to barstoolgold.com slash KFC. He's wearing his, what I call his like KFC radio uniform. Every time he comes in here, he needs to suit up in a black windbreaker because he's too cold.
Starting point is 00:04:12 Bob said, he said, I, before we start, I have to go get my jacket. And I figured he was going to get maybe a denim coat, just something really a little light, maybe a spring coat, something, something like that. This, this looks like when you're trying to make weight, I think you look like you're going to, to the Inception to go kill that guy in the mountains. You're one of the guys. It's a little parka. It's a light parka.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Because I think they wore white to get in. I believe the bad guys wore black in that scene. You look like the bad guy protecting the place in the Swedish Alps or wherever they are. I have a condition. It's called Raynoids. Raynauds. Raynods. You are probably what that tweet was talking about the other day. Where do you keep your thermostat at?
Starting point is 00:04:50 Oh, no. I actually keep my thermostat 68. All right. That makes no sense. 68 is pretty chilly. You don't get cold doing that? You guys keep this fucking studio at 55. This studio is the most insane room in the building.
Starting point is 00:05:01 Because we bring the heat, bro. Yeah. Well, it's insane. My hands, like, look at them. They're actually, like, going white a little bit already. You can see my fingernails. They're going purple. So do you get, like, the orange spots, too?
Starting point is 00:05:11 A little bit, yeah. Pretty clammy. I used to get that. I actually don't get that much. I'd get it, like, playing hockey, and it was, like, I'd get them in, like, in between periods. Show those hands. Show them off, bud. I would have, it would be white, and I'd have orange splotches.
Starting point is 00:05:24 Oh, what's the orange? I don't know. And then I would have, like, blue. I don't know. If I touched my hand, it would be white and I would have orange splotches. What's the orange? I don't know. And then I would have like blue – I don't know. If I touched my hand, it would just stay white forever. It doesn't really happen anymore. I used to play roller hockey outdoor in the winter and I used to buy – my mom would buy me in bulk like the hand warmers. But she would just like buy the package that they come in, that they ship them in to stores. And we would put one in each finger of my hockey gloves. We would use like an allen key wrench to push them down into each finger
Starting point is 00:05:49 it was intense what a pain in the ass you are yeah if my kids like that i'm like well i don't know then you don't do things outside anymore like you just stay inside during the winter we ain't doing pretty much what i do what hand warmers for individual fingers every time you go outside go outside in the winter yeah do it i mean. I mean, I'm all set on pretty much going outside ever. I'm done with the summer. It's too hot. Winter's too cold. Those two weeks a year in the spring and fall, that's all I got.
Starting point is 00:06:12 Yeah. But, yeah, I like the uniform. So let's suit up and talk a little Spider-Man here. While we have Bob here, I had a dream last night that I was The Rock. Oh, really? Nice. You were like him or you were you, but just as popular as The Rock? I looked like me.
Starting point is 00:06:28 I just had The Rock's body. Did you have his fame and success and stuff? Yeah, I was shooting a movie. Actually, I don't know if I was shooting a movie. I guess I could have. I figured it was a movie because I had The Rock's body, but I guess I could have just been in the NHL. But I was – it's really not realistic.
Starting point is 00:06:42 I was having back surgery, but also it was a big game, so I had to go back out. They do a little bit of surgery. In the locker room, I have to skate like this. I scored six goals, though. Six goals with a bad back, wow. Against the Maple Leafs, and I was just laughing. And I was like, this is so easy.
Starting point is 00:06:58 I'm having back surgery right now. And that was the whole movie. This is a big deal, though. John just started dreaming last year. Oh, really? for the first time ever and it's so he's finally like these things are like wild and wacky to him and it's like yeah no this is how dreams work this weird shit happens but i woke up and i was scared i might have had the back surgery so i woke up just like really stiff and kind of like just sat up in bed and was like yeah okay no we're good we're good i mean for the record you do need back surgery but whatever
Starting point is 00:07:25 something something is drastic i think that was subconscious yeah you need to do this yeah like if you do this maybe you could be as big as the rock because you'll actually be healthy um spider-man yeah this is wild this is huge news you know what i don't think this is huge news i don't think it's gonna happen well so do i but but i think that they're even going down right now the fact that it went as far as the kirk minahan quit i think it's premature i don't know no i don't think it's that i think it's a move i think it's i think it's uh sony sony is like that's it we're breaking up and you know it's like you'll be back at my door soon but with the hope of like maybe there'll be a compromise in the relationship here i think they're i think disney will probably just call their bluff but i think it will work you know
Starting point is 00:08:07 so the deal was so it might be the other way around too you think okay might be calling disney's bluff i don't know what's really happening from what i understand uh sony owns spider-man they own all his stuff because when marvel went bankrupt in the 90s they tried to sell all of their characters movie rights i can't believe that's so bankrupt so what they did was they tried to sell them all to Sony. I don't know. You see the movies, I can. And Sony said we don't want any of them except Spider-Man. They said Iron Man, Hulk, Thor.
Starting point is 00:08:32 You could keep those. We'll just take Spider-Man. I understand that logic by the way. Yes. Back then especially. Because I mean Iron Man was never the dude until it was Robert Downey Jr. The Hulk kind of like never really worked in movies. And Thor I didn't think too much of either as like a whatever
Starting point is 00:08:45 Spider-Man was like that dude they let him keep all the Avengers everyone that we know now in the MCU they take Spider-Man they make the Tobey Maguire movies they make the Andrew Garfield movies eventually they were not doing too well are you laughing at me because I'm wearing a coat? No no no I was just laughing at how many times they've done
Starting point is 00:09:02 Spider-Man and it's like my god they're going to do it again they're going to kill Uncle Ben again. Right. Well, that's the thing. That's why I don't know if it's going to happen, because I think everybody's like, all right, we can't have another one. At least for like 10 years. The Andrew Garfield ones, especially Amazing Spider-Man 2, was so bad that it almost killed the legacy of Spider-Man in terms of like, you could have put another movie out, and it might have bombed because the last one was so bad. The first Tobey Maguire ones were, the time the biggest movie ever, right?
Starting point is 00:09:28 Definitely, yeah. Biggest movie or biggest like superhero movie? Biggest like superhero movie. Yeah, right, right. Spider-Man 2, still the Tobey Maguire one with Doc Ock holds up very well. The first one doesn't. Upside Down Kiss. There's some moments in there.
Starting point is 00:09:39 Yeah. So they made a deal with Disney where Disney earned 5% of the profit to share Spider-Man and use Spider-Man in their universe. So they got to use him in The Avengers, Civil War, all that stuff. So this is a gone loan. Yes. Now they – it comes time to renegotiate the deal, and the girl at the head of Sony there, Kevin Feige, is kind of the worst and always makes these boneheaded decisions. So she goes, if Far From Home doesn't make a billion dollars, we have to renegotiate. Far From Home makes a billion dollars.
Starting point is 00:10:10 And she said, fuck it. We're renegotiating anyway. And Disney asked for an increase from 5% to 50%. At that point, they didn't even make a counteroffer. They said, we're taking Spider-Man. Forget about it. I mean, 5% to 50% is a a maybe I don't know that they deserve it. I don't know that it might be a 50-50 split.
Starting point is 00:10:26 See, someone tweeted me and they said that they would. But going from 5 to 50, it's like, I don't care what you deserve. That's just in a negotiation. That ain't going to happen. I could be worth $5 million here at Barstool Sports. You're not going to get that big of a raise. They don't have to. And logically, it's just not
Starting point is 00:10:43 expected. It is a negotiation, though, and that could be the first thing, the first number you put out there trying to negotiate. The weird thing is I've seen some people say Disney was also offering to put up 50% of the budget and marketing for all that, so they would be like putting money in to get their money back. And what a lot of people are saying is an MCU, a non-MCU Spider-Man movie might not make 100% of that, might not make what you would make with 50% of the actual MCU one, which at this point is what, $600,000? So the MCU comic book movies are so much better than the DC movies and the old comic book movies.
Starting point is 00:11:19 And even the Sony ones. Do they have specific writers or better – what is – why? It all boils down to Kevin Feige. Having one guy at the top, overseeing everything, making sure everything... And he just knows comic books or he knows movies? Both. It's also not just him, but it's his team.
Starting point is 00:11:36 That's what I mean. They have eyes on everything. They also know that their formula works. They have a formula. They don't try to hide that. They don't ever stray from it. So does DC, but they keep using it. And it's like, you're making a bad
Starting point is 00:11:50 cake. DC doesn't really have a formula, though, because DC, all of their movies wind up being a mess. They wind up putting too much in, this, that, the next thing. But at least they're dark and it's always raining. True. That's the formula. Brewing. I haven't even seen any of the movies since... I don't even know the last one I saw, but I hated it, so I haven't really seen any since.
Starting point is 00:12:08 I'm by Suicide Squad. And it's just like – it's just always raining in the DC universe. Who's doing the Joker? So that – Independent. That's like separate from everything? It's technically DC, but it's not like part of the DC universe. That's a DC property, but it's Todd Phillips.
Starting point is 00:12:21 Like Batman and – that's like a DC comic thing. Totally separate. But they're not – it's not like the same guy who did Batman versus Superman is doing the Joker. No. A completely separate team doing that one. And that one is – I'm like a little afraid that that one is getting overhyped to a certain extent because everyone is saying Joaquin Phoenix is going to get nominated for best actor at the Oscars. They're saying it's going to get best picture nominations and shit. Everyone needs – like comic book movies are not going to win Oscars at least for like a little while.
Starting point is 00:12:42 I don't think this is a comic. I don't think I would even call it a comic. Joker is going to be so different. I get that, but it's still like – it still is a comic book character. There's a precedent for Joker being an Oscar-winning character. Yeah, I mean I guess so, right? Heath Ledger won the Oscar for it. Bob, did you see what Andrew Garfield said?
Starting point is 00:12:57 I don't think he said it recently, but it's recirculating now because of the news. No. He gave a bite, and he basically was saying he was so disappointed because Sony, he was like, it's very evident that Sony does not prioritize story.
Starting point is 00:13:13 He was like, they think of it as a superhero movie, and they're like, we're gonna have some big, broad action scenes, and it's gonna be the good guy
Starting point is 00:13:20 versus the villain. We're gonna sell a lot of toys. Yeah, and he was like, during production, he was like, it became evident that he didn't really care about the story. That may all be true, but you also stink, Andrew Garfield. Okay.
Starting point is 00:13:32 You know what I mean? He was all right. But I mean, to say that is kind of like, I don't know. Yeah. Everybody gets blamed for that. That shit sucked. But Sony does have that issue where like with a bunch of their stories where they don't care. Like the leaked Sony emails that came out years ago. The girl that's there, Kevin Feige, was on all those.
Starting point is 00:13:49 And I was talking to Jeff D. Lowe about it, and he was like, yeah, she thought it would be good if Spider-Man could connect to the children, meaning they wanted him to like vape and go to like raves. Jesus. And they wanted Spider-Man like ripping on a jewel in all these scenes. That was Sony's idea of what Spider-Man should be. That's insane. Kevin Feige's idea is Tom Holland. Yeah. And it's the greatest Spider-Man anyone's ever seen.
Starting point is 00:14:10 That's what sucks is that this is all happening with Tom Holland coming into his prime. Is his contract with Marvel or Sony? He doesn't have a contract with either technically, I believe. I believe he's just signing on for these movies. And they're saying he's expected to return. I don't believe that. I just don't believe that he's expected to return. I don't believe that. I just don't believe that he'll return.
Starting point is 00:14:27 Return to Sony. They think they're going to cross over him and Venom. The Venom universe with Tom Hardy which that movie I didn't even see.
Starting point is 00:14:34 I was actually pleasantly surprised. I didn't see it in theaters. I saw it on demand. It was free on demand HBO or something like that and one night I was like fuck it I'll put it on.
Starting point is 00:14:42 Is that a DC movie? No it's Marvel. It's Marvel but it's Sony. Okay that's sony yeah okay i'm confused but that was like a marvel entity but that movie was made by sony okay yeah um not mcu not disney and while fights enjoyed it everyone else i've talked to about the movie it was terrible right i think everyone hated it at least i i think i think i remember the lights camera podcast was like it was all in the 70s it was fine it was i i'm glad i didn't go see the theater but like laying on the couch on a friday night it was fine do you think there's any um bias going into these things like i know if i sit down to watch a dc movie i'm already like this
Starting point is 00:15:17 movie's gonna stink and if you sit down watching a marvel movie definitely everybody's already ready to suck no matter what happens it's gonna be it's going to be... I like DC movies. You do? Yeah. And I feel like a lot of people go in with the bias. Now, I also acknowledge the fact that they're nowhere near
Starting point is 00:15:30 as good as Marvel movies and that they mostly suck. But I enjoy them. Yeah, there's a difference between a good movie and an enjoyable movie. But I thought Captain Marvel was terrible
Starting point is 00:15:38 and I feel like everybody loved that. And they were going to love that no matter what. I thought that one was very middle of the line. Did it? Because when we walked out of the theater, I thought everybody thought it was amazing. And they were going to love that no matter what. I thought that one was very middle of the line. Because when we walked out of the theater, I thought everybody thought it was amazing. And I was like,
Starting point is 00:15:49 but I just feel like Marvel gets the benefit of the doubt. DC doesn't. And that's set in stone almost. Tom Holland must be like, what the fuck? I said Jake Gyllenhaal must be like, what the fuck? He signs on thinking like, this is amazing. I'm at the top of my career.
Starting point is 00:16:06 I'm signing on to the MCU. They leave him with the open-ended thing at the end. And then he's just like, he's going to be in Venom 2 next. Yeah. Tom Hardy. This is why I'm like, everybody seems to think it's a bluff one way or the other and everybody's going to come around. Venom made like $850 million. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:22 They had nothing to do with Kevin Feige. Nothing to do with MCU. Kevin Feige technically got credit on that. Yeah. I mean, you got to remember that sony is a fucking they're sony they're not like some little shop he's made so much money i'm pretty sure amazing spider-man did fairly well they can just run it back i just don't know if they they really care enough kind of reminds me almost like nike and adidas like adidas is like right now they're like hot and cool and like edgy and trendy and but edgy and trendy. But Nike's like, we're just going to release the Jordan and make a fucking shit ton of money. Like if you own Spider-Man, you're probably going to make money, period.
Starting point is 00:16:51 That's why I think it has to be on Disney. Like I think this is Sony calling their bluff. Just like I think Fox was just like, we'll just hang on to X-Men as long as we need to. Until they cut the big ass billion dollar jack. That's fine. But also, how well has Marvel and Disney done without X-Men? You know? It's like, we don't need you either.
Starting point is 00:17:08 True. So, Spider-Man's pretty important, but, like, they did it without fucking Wolverine and X-Men and all that shit. So, I think everybody can survive. It's just, you know, the loser is the viewer. You know what I mean? Like, the movie fan is the one who's getting fucked. And some people are saying that this is, like, you know, good for movies because Disney has a monopoly and it's for the economy and the industry.
Starting point is 00:17:28 I don't give a fuck about any of that stuff. Yeah. I hate to sound immature and ignorant or whatever. I don't care about the movie business in that way. I love it if Disney, DC could step their fucking game up and be a rival. Like, I don't have to care. Because I didn't really like the Avengers, like, growing up. I loved the X-Men.
Starting point is 00:17:44 I was like, when I heard Avengers movie coming out I was like corny ass Captain America and then they just made it really good. Now I'm a huge fan. So like if somebody could come along and make Aquaman and like Cyborg really compelling characters, great. But like right now I just want Kevin Feige
Starting point is 00:18:00 to own everything because he just seems to be the only guy who can do it right. Yeah. That's what I think Disney's probably like okay they're all freaking out about this, you know, this crossover won't be there anymore. We'll just hit them with an X-Men Deadpool. They'll forget about this. Fantastic Four. Like, they've got a lot of stuff.
Starting point is 00:18:14 Like, you were saying that the next phase that was announced didn't have any Spider-Man movies in it, so they've got, like, years to figure this out. Yeah. They do have a lot of time to figure this out. Like, a lot. And I really hope they do, because Far From Home was so good. Like, I just love Tom Holland's Peter Parker more than anything. I was so sick of him.
Starting point is 00:18:31 I would be pissed if they tried to continue the story without being in the MCU. But couldn't you just see them, Sony, like being like making an offer to Tom Holland and be like, we're going to try and make another Spider-Man movie and then it fucks with the continuity. I don't think I'd see it. You don't think they'll do it? I don't think I would see it if they did it. I don't think I would go out of spite. Take a stand?
Starting point is 00:18:50 Yeah, take a stand. Tom Holland is so good that I've actually gotten sick of I'm always like I've said this probably like three times now so it gets repetitive I am the someone calling a bluff and Marvel calls it on me every time. But I was like, I'm kind of sick of the formulaic Marvel movie.
Starting point is 00:19:10 Every time you know what's going to happen. And then Spider-Man came out. I was like, all right, I'll see it. And I saw it. I was like, God damn. It was good. Another one of those for sure. Right.
Starting point is 00:19:19 I mean, that is Spider-Man is like, you know like arguably up there with Superman and Batman. It's like major, major character. He's awesome at it. I love – at first I was kind of weirded out by Marisa Tomei being like the hot – like she's supposed to be like an old lady kind of, right? Yeah. And I love Zendaya. I mean that's just good. Like I agree with you 100 percent, but that's one where they're like they're still going to get me.
Starting point is 00:19:42 Maybe not the next Thor or the next this or that, but that one I'm probably in on. You know what was weird, though? Why was Aunt May really old? Like, your aunt is usually not, like, a grandma. Yeah, I know. So it's like it makes a lot more sense for it to be a normal-aged person. Yeah. And I think Zendaya is awesome.
Starting point is 00:19:56 I got, like, a huge crush on her, and, like, I think she's, like, a quirky weirdo. Yeah. And how can you continue his story without, like, they set up the fact that fact that like he's going to be the next Tony Stark. And also his sidekick is Happy Hogan. So you can't have Jon Favreau as Happy Hogan anymore if he's going to be in Sony. And you can't really do the current Spider-Man franchise without him. Can we do spoilers for – I don't know. Far From Home I feel like we can.
Starting point is 00:20:20 Far From Home, yes. Like the after – the end credits is like he's revealed to the world. Now you can't like not do that you have to be like the next movie is him the world knowing about him oh yeah that spider kid like just disappeared fell off a cliff died on impact
Starting point is 00:20:36 I guess if there's any time for him to disappear it would be that time I guess he went into hiding he killed himself first scene is like a deep fake photoshop and he just like i need to see what happens next yeah now they're like actually never and now that might be part of like their leverage is like they know they've got you right now because you have to you have to finish this story so maybe yeah george rr martin's off the hook for not finishing fucking stories fat ass he's not off my hook i kind of i kind
Starting point is 00:21:04 of respected that that article the other day where he said the TV show was bad for him. It's like me too. It's like probably every college kid too. It's like I was supposed to be writing my paper and I was watching Good and Gross. I was supposed to be doing work and I was watching season eight. So was George. What do you think of this? This tweet went viral the other day.
Starting point is 00:21:19 Mark Harris. You know who that is? He's a, I don't know. He looks like a book writer writer i guess uh he said what were you gonna say there a book what i thought he's like a book like a review book bookmaker uh he just put out a list said top 10 grocers of 2019 so far far number one comic book adaptation number two remake of an animated movie three comic book adaptation four animated movie part four five comic book adaptation six remake of an animated movie seven is us and then eight nine ten action movie animated movie part three animated movie part two kind of just being like
Starting point is 00:21:54 you know really hammering home the idea that everything's a remake and nothing's original and while i get it kind of what you were saying about like the economy and like the monopoly and shit it's like i I don't know. I just don't care. If they're good, they're good. If people are liking them, they're liking them. You're not forcing people to go to these movies. Right.
Starting point is 00:22:13 There's a market, and it's working. Supply and demand type shit. I mean, I do get the idea it would be cool if you're coming out with an original script right now, an original idea, and maybe some of like when M. Night Shyamalan's do hit, they're really cool. That's all awesome, but the people who get bent out of shape about this is like – I'm definitely a hypocrite about it because I'm like I want more original stories. Then you go watch these. I'm going and watching every superhero movie. So I mean he goes on and on, and people were saying – people were like you can do this with anything. You can kind of describe anything that way, and I don't really think that's true. You know what I mean, he goes on and on, and people were saying – people were like, you can do this with anything.
Starting point is 00:22:46 You can kind of describe anything that way, and I don't really think that's true. You know what I mean? I think it's sort of true. It is, but – Think about books and TV when Twilight came out. Like every TV show is the Vampire Diaries this. Yeah. A spin-off of that.
Starting point is 00:22:56 They're always crazy. And I'm sure the ratings at that time were all like vampire shows are at the top. Comes in waves. The superhero wave will eventually end. Here's the example. So someone said like this is always how it is, and said no look at 1994 which is all you know 94 right forrest gump lion king true lies is funny sneaking in there uh the santa claus the flintstones dumb and dumber clear and present danger speed the mask pulp fiction and someone tried to do what he did
Starting point is 00:23:22 he said so okay okay sentimental claptrap two animated movie three dad misogyny fantasy four bad movie five TV remakes you know like they're trying to put the labels on it but it's I mean those are all like Forrest Gump's an original fucking movie The Lion King was the first of its kind the Santa Claus
Starting point is 00:23:39 while being a children's movie is you know that doesn't hold up in 1994 all these movies, minus The Frozen. Are those highest grossing of 94? Or are those just like... Yes. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:23:51 Yeah, because I do believe there's also, I think, like, I want to say Shawshank Redemption and some major, major movies. But the top grossers, these are all original. So there is something different going on. There's definitely a good point to be made. It is sad when you see the pictures of the old of, like, the old school theaters that will, like, write all the movies they have. And it's like Men in Black 3, Toy Story 4.
Starting point is 00:24:11 Yes. Like you said, the one that went viral. It was like, did we try and travel back to 2002? Yeah. Toy Story, Men in Black. Oh, shit. We are kind of just moving in circles here. Right.
Starting point is 00:24:20 But also, you know, give the people what they want. Yeah. Fuck it. Oh, well. Or maybe that theory that we did die. They're all businesses. They want to make money. Those are the ones that make the most money.
Starting point is 00:24:30 Those are the ones we're going to make. Yeah. Or maybe the world did end in 2012 and we're not coming up with any original scripts. We're just running it back. And the people that are complaining about it probably aren't going to their local indie theaters and seeing those movies and supporting them. So it's like, what are you doing about it? By the way, Us, worst movie I've ever seen. I thought it stunk.
Starting point is 00:24:44 It was the worst. I haven't heard one person who liked it. Here's what? By the way, Us, worst movie I've ever seen. I thought it stunk. It was the worst. I enjoyed watching it. Here's what I'll say. The worst movie I've ever seen. I enjoyed watching it while I was watching it. The whole time, I was like into it.
Starting point is 00:24:53 I was like, all right, where's this going? Where's this going? The second it ended, I was like, huh, that was a big waste of time.
Starting point is 00:24:58 Yes, because much like you go into things with the Marvel idea and the DC idea, people go into a Jordan Peele movie saying this is going to be brilliant and genius and shit, and I did too. And I was like, it had some creepy moments, had some cool vibes to it. But then I was like, that felt very M. Night to me, where it was like you started feeling yourself.
Starting point is 00:25:18 Lupita doing that weird voice was so fucking stupid. You like that? I was fine. I guess I was fine with her. I didn't feel any way about her. I thought the performances were fine. For me, it was just like, I don't know,
Starting point is 00:25:32 I thought the whole ending was stupid. What was that? At one point, I thought it was fake. I was like, is this not real? They're actually holding hands. There's actually people beneath the surface. I can see Jordan Peele, and this is almost doing exactly what you thought.
Starting point is 00:25:45 Jordan Peele, he wanted to make a bad movie because he wanted to lose the expectations of Get Out. I remember he told a story when he went to, I think he told it on Kim or something like that, when he went to a class at UCLA where it was a class on Get Out, and he went and sat in the crowd and didn't tell people he was there. And they were saying he meant this with this symbolism.
Starting point is 00:26:10 And he was sitting in the back being like, I didn't even fucking think about that. I didn't do any of that. I just made the shirt red. I colored the duck blue because I wanted to see a blue duck. It's not that deep, bro. He had the bushes outside their house
Starting point is 00:26:24 carved in a certain way that represented like uh old black frats and stuff and he's like those are just fucking bushes what you're talking that is i think the almost the movie equivalent of uh manny being manny over in sports where you can just do whatever you want and people are cool with it it's like he could do anything and kind of kanye with clothes like he could just like cut a hole in it and everyone loves it completely he can put out anything it's marvel with movies yeah yeah i mean marvi they're they're fun they're entertaining they're the same every time like you know that's why and maybe you're right with the joker and all that shit with the oscars but like you know i i don't think you can win like best picture when you just make it like four
Starting point is 00:27:00 times a year exactly the fucking same yeah well. Well, that's why I guess the new categories come out. What's that called, by the way? The most popular film. This will be the first one? I think so, yeah. So I guess that's a shoo-in for Endgame, yeah. I figure while we're talking movies, we might as well. Probably Endgame.
Starting point is 00:27:16 Yeah. While we're doing a little entertainment talk, we'll do a little Barstool DVR. I feel like there's some good things out right now. Succession's back. Season two of that. Feels like it took a long time uh but i guess it was kind of on par like a normal amount of time off but i think it was less time because i actually started watching i watched both last night i watched succession and mindhunter um because i hadn't caught up with either of them and i was i didn't even really need the succession intro like the the recap i remembered
Starting point is 00:27:46 it mindhunter i needed yeah mindhunter was like two years right netflix does that netflix does they do like british style where it's just like we'll take off as many years as we feel like yeah we'll put it out right i i mindhunter i watched i never finished season one i feel like uh netflix is has kind of chilled out in a way in the sense that again with the same theme here there was a point in time where when a netflix show came out everyone was like stop what you're doing you have to watch remember that original angel movie the oa one that was the worst show i've ever watched but at that point it was like if netflix dropped something you have to watch it and then i think we are at the point where you realize netflix dropped something new
Starting point is 00:28:22 every two seconds yeah and i thought Mindhunter was, you know, it was first of all, it's, you know, serial killer type of thing. We've seen that a million times before. I thought it was good,
Starting point is 00:28:31 but I didn't, I didn't feel compelled to finish the first season. And so I, I, when it, when it came back for a second season, I feel like, uh, I think,
Starting point is 00:28:38 I think Bloodline was a lot like that too. Bloodline was like still in that Netflix dropped a new show. People really liked it. Bloodline season one was awesome. But then, I mean, like it just, all of a sudden I realized like no one's talking about Bloodline was still in that. Netflix dropped a new show. People really liked it. Bloodline season one was awesome. But then, all of a sudden, I realized no one's talking about Bloodline. The second season, they must have not had a plan for a second season. I think that's what it was. I will know because the season one does end.
Starting point is 00:28:57 I wish season one just ended. I guess I don't really care. I don't like when people say that. I wish this was just one season. We could have just watched this one season. Yeah, but if there's not a conclusion it's kind of like yeah but there is like tied it up but there isn't there is a conclusion there's always a conclusion to that story yeah and it's whether or not you care about the next 30 seconds that are the reveal for what
Starting point is 00:29:15 next season is and you can just be like i didn't i didn't see those last three seconds yeah i forgot about that like the story i watched was done yeah and you could have done that with bloodline um season two was eh and season three I haven't even watched. I didn't even know there was a season three. Yeah, that was a while ago. That came out a while ago.
Starting point is 00:29:30 How was Mindhunter season two? I'm only like three episodes in. I like it more. Season one of Mindhunter didn't, it was, there were certain characters that grabbed me
Starting point is 00:29:39 where Kemper, who was the big guy who was the co-ed killer who we used to like fuck severed heads. He was fantastic. The guy who played him was really good. And I thought there were some other killers that they went to, which are probably just telling the true story.
Starting point is 00:29:54 Where it's like, okay, this was the next killer we talked to. And this was the next killer we talked to. And they're not huge names that I know. And I'm like, eh, that guy, he just killed four women. Oh, that ain't going to get it done. Look, unless you're fucking severed heads, I ain't interested. I don't know if I'd call this guy a psychopath. He just had a bad week.
Starting point is 00:30:12 His wife's bothering him. I don't know. And it was like, so there was some of that where it just kind of fell off. Season two, I'm only three episodes in. But I like it more because they're solving real cases now, too. Okay. And the old one was just talking to guys who were done. Right.
Starting point is 00:30:27 Now it's like an active case. Now they're talking to people. They're still doing that, but there are also active cases that they're like, okay, we got to go check out what this guy's doing. Trying to figure out who fucking stole a dips pit. The BTK guy is, he's the one in the loop. He's the one in, okay. They're like, I'm only, like I said,
Starting point is 00:30:40 I'm only three episodes in and there are now three active cases they're on. All right. I can get down with that. Yeah, I'm more interested in this. Or and there are now three active cases they're on. All right. I can get down with that. Yeah, I'm more interested in this. Or at least three. Two active cases they're on, one active case that they're kind of connected to. Succession has been – I haven't been able to – like every time I sit down to watch it, I'm watching the Mets or something like that.
Starting point is 00:30:57 Succession, I think, you speak about characters, like that show is just loaded with them. Dude. I think you can watch almost – you could watch that show just for one person with like five or six different choices. Have you done any of the season? Uh, like half of the first episode. I did the first two episodes last night.
Starting point is 00:31:15 It is difficult to watch Kendall. It is. He's like tweaking out and show you. No, no, no. He's he's, he actually really isn't tweaking.
Starting point is 00:31:23 He is doing drugs, but he's not, he's not really acting like a drug addict. But he is so neutered. I tweeted last night that it's more difficult to watch scenes of Kendall just being Kendall right now than it was to watch – When he's all apologetic. He's not even apologetic. He's just sheepish. He's doing a fantastic job acting because he's hunched, his shoulders are slouched.
Starting point is 00:31:44 He even looks kind of gaunt like he's been stressed and sad. I mean, they reference it multiple times in the show. You look like fucking shit, by the way. The one scene I did see where I know what you're talking about was when Shiv and Romulus are in the dunes of a beach or something like that. And he's apologizing, and they're like, what the fuck is this? It's almost like Sweet D, the joke's on me. It's like, fight back. Yes, right. She's like, fuck you for apologizing and they're like what the fuck what the fuck is this it's almost like uh sweet d the jokes on me yeah fight back yes right why are you she's like fuck you for apologizing to me
Starting point is 00:32:09 that's not what we do here that shows fire but i mean it's it's he's he's doing it's so so hard to watch honestly when reek was literally neutered and tortured and he's like i'm reek i'm reeking it wasn't even as bad that wasn't as hard to watch as this because i guess because this is more realistic yes where it's like that was just a guy who was tortured by a psychopath. But this is like mental torture. This is someone whose dad has just destroyed him. Yeah. And now he has to work for his dad again.
Starting point is 00:32:36 That is some Ramsay Bolton type shit. He has to make national apologies on TV. And he has to just. I think Romulus says something that after he does the – what opens the season. You saw this too when he goes on TV. He gets like pulled out from like Sweden or whatever. And he does go on TV and make an apology. And Romulus is walking away and he just goes – he's like, god damn.
Starting point is 00:32:56 So he's finished, huh? I mean he just cut his own cock off. He's walking around the New York Stock Exchange going, is this worth anything anymore? Succession is i think like that hbo show right now yeah i feel like right you know um well there was a line uh when he's doing park coke oh yeah what does he say he's like if i die no he says if if uh if my septum falls out i'm gonna make you eat my septum he tastes, oh, this is terrible. You got me park coke? He does it.
Starting point is 00:33:26 He's like, no, yeah, that's the worst coke I've ever had. My septum falls out. I'm going to make you fucking eat it. It does have funny moments.
Starting point is 00:33:36 It has humor. Also very serious. There's a financial New York City element. If you're a Wall Street guy, highly, highly recommend. I saw an interesting debate about it
Starting point is 00:33:44 where it was, it kind of said like for people who have lived through the anti-hero era of television which probably like five years ago wherever it was it said did that ruin tv for us where a main character can no longer do wrong were you always rooted for the anti-hero like they're like these are all bad people yeah You should not like these people. You should be watching. You want them all to fail. You want Roy Meadey to burn down. All of this you should be rooting against.
Starting point is 00:34:15 But for some reason, you're watching it and you're going, God, that was funny. God, he's awesome. God, that's cool. Society is a bad place. We are bad people. We root for the bad guys. And you used to not publicly.
Starting point is 00:34:28 I remember Eminem used to rhyme like that. I root for the bad guy and I hope the good guy dies. And it's like now we all just kind of openly do that. The episodes are about – so episode two in succession was basically Barstool Sports got gutted. It was a major media company, let's say Churnin, for instance, bought this small website as an investment or as a passion project of sorts. And they, after two years or after a year, whatever they decide they don't want to do anymore,
Starting point is 00:34:58 fire everybody. As Kendall's giving the speech, it's kind of like Kendall getting his swagger back a little bit. Yeah. And as he's like, you get paid one week in severance for every year of service. Your health care will be done at the end of this month. Leave your laptops. You all signed NDAs.
Starting point is 00:35:17 You're all fucked. Get the fuck out of here. And I was like, oh, shit. Kendall got his swagger back. And I was like, wait. That could very easily happen to me but here I am cheering him on what a heel turn Jesse coming in here imagine what a heel turn if Peter Turner walks in here usually comes in he's all like rah rah and like you guys are the
Starting point is 00:35:37 future instead of you just like fuck you fight over your shit get the fuck out I'd love it it'd be funny be good for business. You guys watch Yellowstone? No, my brother's been trying to get me on it for months. It's so fucking good. And I feel like it's actually got a little less buzz on season two, which maybe I got to start beating the drum so people watch it, because season one, it was popping a little bit.
Starting point is 00:36:01 There's a scene in season two. It's one of the most difficult scenes I've ever watched, period. It's like a brutal assault, rape, violent type of scene. It is wild. That director or whatever, the guy, yeah, I was going to say Wind River. That scene's hard to watch. It's a little more, I'm trying to remember Wind River. That's like a gang situation, right? Like several guys in there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:27 Do they show it, though? They show it out of easy eyes and shit. It's Beth, so she's the most badass bitch character in the world. And she gets her face pummeled by Dom from Entourage.
Starting point is 00:36:42 Oh, no. Yeah. I hate that guy. I hate him. He's great. And he's wearing a black mask that's very Batman-esque. If you put a burglar mask on, it's kind of cliche. So he has this different mask on. It's like, oh, these guys are not to be fucked with. And he's just brutal.
Starting point is 00:37:02 And that show probably is Taylor or Tyler Sheridan? Taylor Sheridan? I mean, that guy is unbelievable. The scenery, unbelievable. The reservation versus Costner's Ranch versus there's these new, like, casino owners who will do, like, these are the guys who are, like, fucking with Beth. They'll do anything to stop you. It is awesome. That guy knows how to make you feel shit.
Starting point is 00:37:24 Like, that scene in Wind River, like, why are you flanking me or why are you surrounding me or whatever? And they all, like, that It is awesome. That guy knows how to make you feel shit. Like that scene in Wind River, like, why are you flanking me or why are you surrounding me? And they all like, that scene is insane. Let's go to Montana. Yep. When you walk into the bank and it's full, that's one of the best scenes. Hell of high water.
Starting point is 00:37:39 Sicario. Sicario 2 was his first miss ever. That didn't even stink. Sicario 2. It first missed ever. And that didn't even stink. Sicario 2 – The bar was set very high. It was set very high. And also I think they were writing it during the election because there's one thing in Sicario 2 where it starts off – the beginning of Sicario 2 starts off with terrorists sneak through the Mexican border and come into America, and they blow up a toy store, I believe.
Starting point is 00:38:07 They have, like, four or five guys go in with bombs strapped to their chest and blow up a toy store. And, like, halfway through the movie, three-quarters of the way through the movie, it's just a throwaway line. Like, by the way, those guys weren't even – because it starts at the Mexican border, and then that happens, and then they think the guys came from Africa somewhere, one of the pirate countries. What's the one that begins with an A? Somalia. Somalia. Yeah. And so they go over to Somalia, and they're, like, torturing guys over there, and they're trying to find these terrorists.
Starting point is 00:38:37 And then, again, like, halfway, three-quarters of the way to the movie, it's just, by the way, those guys weren't even from Africa, or they weren't Islamists. They were all from New Jersey. And it's just's just like well what the fuck have we been doing yeah the whole thing is like this whole movie is pointless i almost think that they added that line just to be like they're like you don't want to get in a debate about the mexican border or terrorist sneaking through and stuff like that right yeah that's fucked but yellowstone taylor sheridan can't recommend it enough you're watching parks and Rec for the first time. No, Trent's watching it for the first time. Right, Trent's watching it for the first time.
Starting point is 00:39:07 One of my favorite shows ever. So you're basically making him watch Parks and Rec, and he's going to make you watch The Wire. Yeah. A lot going on in the Fox-Ryan household. I actually reached out to him. Right, but you know what I'm saying. He's going to guide you through that,
Starting point is 00:39:19 and you're going to guide him through Parks and Rec. His is a little bit heavier, and it's also a lot worse. Mine is way easier to got through. It's good. It's funny. So, you're going to watch a bad show, so that's going to be tough. The Wire? Oh, you don't like The Wire. I mean, good luck getting through season two. It's like the worst season of TV you'll ever watch.
Starting point is 00:39:35 Wow. And everyone says that I've never gotten through season two. Everyone will tell you that three and four is awesome, which may be true, but I can't get through two oh shit i want to watch uh the wire and the sopranos and yellowstone i guess i the sopranos i like i acknowledge i just don't like mobster shit as much as most people do and so like it just doesn't grass i've been doing that's my neck of the woods in jersey so i like it i fell off with uh i think
Starting point is 00:40:00 like summer started i had a couple like long weekends away so i fell off it but i did like five seasons of the promranos pretty quick. Yeah. It's worth it. Like that pizza spot in Sopranos in the intro of Pizza Land. That's my pizza spot. What's the bottom being called in real life? Satin Dolls.
Starting point is 00:40:15 You hit that up? Never, no. You can get in now. You won't get carded. Well, no, because yesterday I just didn't get into a bar. Me and Glennie went to go see Kiss at Barclays Center last night. Which is hilarious, by the way. Talk about an odd couple.
Starting point is 00:40:31 It was odd. I mean, you guys are like the characters from Nintendo Ice Hockey. Like, Glennie's just the fat one, Bob's the skinny one. We're Robin Bick. But we go and we pick up our tickets at the box office. We go to a bar. We said, let's grab a drink beforehand. And, like, we went to go in, and the bartender, he was like a really old dude, was like, uh-uh, this guy's not drinking, right?
Starting point is 00:40:51 And Glennie was like, no, he's drinking. And I was like, no, I'm drinking. He's like, all right, let's see an ID. And he like pulled me aside. So I give him my ID. I said, just turned 21 last month. I said, I know I look young. Like I was acknowledging it, not being an ass or anything.
Starting point is 00:41:03 And he goes, this isn't good enough. Let me see some more forms of ID. So I pull out my credit card, my mom's credit card that has my name on it. It's like the whatever thing. My insurance card and then like another – like a dental insurance card. I was like, here you go. Here's four different forms of identification. He goes, no way.
Starting point is 00:41:20 Get out of here. I think the mom's credit card might have fucked you there. Yeah, maybe you should have done that. Well, it just looks like a credit card that says Robert Matthew Fox. Does it say your mom's name on it? No. Oh, okay. And you should be fine.
Starting point is 00:41:30 Oh, okay. Yeah. It's like a card that's linked to her account. Right, right. That makes sense. I mean, that's unconstitutional. And then the next bar we went into, it was like I ordered my second drink, and the lady was like, wait, are you 21?
Starting point is 00:41:42 Yeah. So there's a bar. Are you ever going to Bar 8 on the Jersey Shore? Probably not because you 21? There's a bar. You ever go to Bar A down at the Jersey Shore? Probably not because you're 21. No, never. I've been to the Princeton, though. Bar A, you have to, like, I'll have trouble getting in. Well, Trent almost didn't get into a bar that I got into years ago, the Princeton in Avalon.
Starting point is 00:41:58 We went there for the golf outing, and they, like, took out a binder full of IDs to look for an Iowa one that matched with Trent's. Oh, come on. And then I gave him mine, which was the fakest ID of all time. And they were just like, yep, you're good. I mean, I hate to be, you know, Trent can be like, just look at me. Come on, I'm not 21. I'm an older man. Come on now.
Starting point is 00:42:18 I am Midwest 28, 29, whatever. I'm New York 50. Come on, dude. All right, Bob, whatever. Right. I'm New York 50. Come on, dude. All right, Bob, good work. I guess we'll have you back on whenever Disney basically caves. What do you think?
Starting point is 00:42:35 That would be great. What do you think is going to happen? Prediction? I hope they come to a deal. I know, but what do you think is going to happen? I think they're going to come to a deal. And who's going to, like, quote, unquote, win it? Sony.
Starting point is 00:42:46 I think Sony will quote-unquote win it, but really, all of us will win it. I think that they'll end up at, like, 20%. I think that's fair. 20, 25%. That's super fair. Like, meet me halfway. Super fair. I mean, at the end of the day, too, it's like, all right, we're only going to make, like,
Starting point is 00:42:59 $10 billion instead of, like, $15 billion. Like, come on, guys. Just give the fucking people what they want. All right, get out of here, Bob. Go warm up. At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter. Sony wins, Disney wins, Marvel wins. Tickets are going to fly just like KFC Radio Live.
Starting point is 00:43:14 At Caroline's, the residency is on. Three for three, three months, three shows. The new show is September 18th, Wednesday, 7.30 p.m. Tickets are on sale now. Go check out at KC Radio, Instagram, or Twitter to find the link. It's at Caroline's on Broadway, which is, what is it, 49th or 50th, 51st, something like that, and Broadway.

Starting point is 00:43:52 And because we haven't put out video, people don't know yet. So the video, the show is podcast, part stand-up, part interactive. You can write down your own answer the internet questions on a card. We'll read them on stage. Maybe do a little of The Office with the audience. The Office is now called The Audience. You can shout out topics in the beginning before the show starts. Out in the lobby, we're filming Answer the Internet.
Starting point is 00:44:13 So if you'd like to actually participate in your own version of Answer the Internet, you can answer the hypothetical questions that you see every week on ATI. Speaking of that, a couple rumors flying around. Ooh, yeah. we have our Hollywood insider speaking of answer the internet uh Theo Vaughn just got a job in a Chris Pratt movie for because of this like Chris Pratt saw I mean this is how it went down Chris Pratt saw Theo Vaughn's ATI then Chris Pratt DM'd Theo Vaughn and said I want you to be in my movie I listened to Theo Vaughn's
Starting point is 00:44:49 podcast this morning I wasn't sure what kind of role it was going to be Theo said that he is going he has to take 8 weeks off it's a pretty major fucking role if I had to just guess he's probably I guess it's weird with Chris Pratt being the guy because he kind of used to be this but Theo Vaughn's going to be
Starting point is 00:45:04 the comedic sidekick. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like the laugh. I would think if you have to be there for eight weeks of filming, I imagine you are about as major a role as you can have. It's Chris Pratt, Yvonne Strahovski from Chuck, Handmaid's Tale. And I mean I guess Theo Vaughn's going to have third billing on this. There were other people who were...
Starting point is 00:45:27 So he's not going to have third billing because there are people in talks are J.K. Simmons and someone else big. But that type of role is the role that sometimes stands out. That's like the natural progression is you do the sidekick bit and then all of a sudden you're the leading man. And yeah, it was described to us like
Starting point is 00:45:42 Chris Pratt saw him on a video answering wacky questions on the internet and really liked it was described to us like chris pratt saw him on a video answering wacky questions on the internet and really liked it so i'm like not only is theobond getting gigs from it chris pratt's watching it ati is a smash we're just making dreams come true so subscribe to that and go buy tickets subscribe to answer the internet go buy tickets at Caroline September 18th.

Starting point is 00:46:25 them come up, Mark could just jump on stage with them. Pop Punk, OAR, collab, crazy game of poker would be some shit. There was a story in the news today that is so up KFC Radio and Answer the Internet's Alley, we gotta talk about it. It's Science Says, basically. First time we've done Science Says in a minute.

One of the questions we ask on Answer the Internet is would you rather know how you die or when you die? And I'll be honest, it's maybe the only question that I like change my answer on. I feel like it's pretty 50 50. It's very hotly debated every time one person gives their answer. And there are times where I go back and forth. And cause ultimately, if you know when you die you can uh you can do whatever you want
Starting point is 00:48:27 until then but if you know how you die you just avoid that one thing and you can do whatever you want so either scenario depending on what you how you view it you basically get the blueprint to on how not to die and how to live so i i don't know. Sometimes I go back and forth. Where are you on that one? I also go back and forth. I think right now I would be how. How? So that way you know if you die in a plane crash, then go do heroin. But if you know when you're going to die and it's not tomorrow,
Starting point is 00:48:58 it means you can do heroin right now. Although there are tricks to that. What if you die of old age? We know you die of old age. Right. How old is old? But it doesn't predict that if you get on heroin, you live the last 30 years of your life as a homeless derelict. Fact. It's like you're not dead.
Starting point is 00:49:14 You don't die of the heroin. That's a good point. You get addicted to heroin, and it never kills you, but you have an awful life because of it. I also, you know, you got to start thinking about exactly how we're predicting here. Remember that episode of Black Mirror where you push the button and it tells you how long your relationship's going to last? Yes.
Starting point is 00:49:28 But then those people look at it and it starts changing. Some Marty McFly shit, you start to affect the future. It's like right now, they're predicting how old you're going to be when you die.
Starting point is 00:49:37 But as soon as you know that and start behaving differently, that's got to change, right? I mean, it just has to. I agree. It's also like if you tell me that I die by someone stabbing me, if I shoot myself in I mean, it just has to. I agree. It's also like if you tell me that I die by someone stabbing me.
Starting point is 00:49:47 If I shoot myself in the brain, I'm going to die. So, you know, you got to. But science is maybe making this question obsolete. We might have to take it out of the rotation because they are apparently one step closer to a blood test that predicts when a person will die. How is that possible uh let's see um now you know as you start to read it it gets a little less fun it's like this is you can test how healthy you are and therefore how you'll be vulnerable to major mortality risk factors and you can start to ballpark it so it's more it's not like a when you're gonna die test going to die test, it's a, how healthy tests are you really? So it's probably a blood
Starting point is 00:50:27 test. That's a catch all where it's like, you know, maybe, you know, a blood test used to say whether you had like a terrible disease. Now it can say, you know, you're actually like in the top 95 percentile of just like living, I guess. Um, so the latest efforts, a team, blah, blah, blah, 44,000 healthy patients patients their blood test was around 80 accurate in predicting mortality risk within five to ten years that's pretty fucking diesel within five to ten years is like i mean i guess i don't know you throw 70 out i'm probably within five to ten years of most people i bet if i said i'm a you're gonna die at 70 i'm within five to ten years of 80 yeah i guess so i guess. I guess you need – 5 years is close.
Starting point is 00:51:06 5 years is close, yeah. Because then, I mean, if someone said you're going to die between 70 and 75 and you live to like 90, that would be like way off. So if you're down to 5, you're actually giving a worthwhile assessment there. This is one of those things too, though, that it's just more fun as a hypothetical. I don't really want to know anything. I want to debate what would be the best if we lived in some futuristic world. I don't want to live in that futuristic world. Right.
Starting point is 00:51:33 I don't. If I have to go to the doctors and turn down a test and be like, no, don't tell me, which I would do. Well, that was my question. I would. Yeah. No, I'd turn it down. I wouldn't want to know.
Starting point is 00:51:43 First of all, because I might be at 20% where it's not even accurate. Yeah. If you could tell me with 100% certainty, I could tell you when you're going to die. I'd still probably be like, no. But that tells me nothing. It just makes me stress out about things that I don't need to stress out about. I think I would like to know, though, if it's 60 or something like that. Because also, by the way, this is not like a – it's just probably like you can change your life.
Starting point is 00:52:09 You know what I mean? And I think I would take the test. And if they said, you know, you're going to die at roughly 75, between 75 and 85 or something like that, I'd be like, all right, we're good. If it said like 65, I think I might be like, all right, I got to like start eating healthy right now. But there are also – Which is I should just do that, by the way. You don't need the test. but the test would certainly help. There are so many things that just –
Starting point is 00:52:29 there's like no actual information in the world anymore because we have too much information. If you know everything, you know nothing. And it's like, okay, I'm going to start eating healthy. Well, guess what? In a year, I'm going to get a report that avocados are actually awful for you. Killing you. You're going to have cancer well what am i doing man like what do i know just live your life yep just live however you want to because it also excuse me if you got
Starting point is 00:52:53 that and it wasn't the advice you well it was you're only looking to confirm your suspicions rather than actually looking to get better so if you were like oh if i go and get a test and you're gonna live till you're 80 i was like fucking do it but i would never think maybe i'm that 20 yeah and then if it was like you're gonna live till you're 60 i'm like well i'm definitely in the 20 right you're just looking for confirmation rather than in actual advice no for sure you always it's either confirmation or whatever the opposite of confirmation is where it's just like you you make your decision you live the opposite of it or you live to it, and that's all you really wanted. But yeah, you're right.
Starting point is 00:53:26 I mean, these tests don't actually do anything. But if they could, I think I would want to know just to know the extreme. There's a reason why everyone who lives to 110 is like, I just drink whiskey. And the one's like, I just smoke cigarettes. And the other one says, I eat red meat. It's like, no, they just live to 110. Some people are old.
Starting point is 00:53:41 Some people are young. One of those stories go viral every year, every six months, because they go viral because people like us want to be like we want the confirmation we see this doesn't matter yes it's like every human body is so fucking but i i guess i think there's a it's a valiant effort to try to figure that out like we i'd probably i do genuinely think that it's kind of a crapshoot like a dna like who fucking knows roll the dice but as like a scientist if that was my life i I'd probably be like, no, come on. There has to be a reason. There's reasons why you die.
Starting point is 00:54:10 We can predict reasons why things happen. We're going to figure this out. I just don't know if you can. I think some things in life are kind of up to fate, up to chance. I wholeheartedly talked about that on the radio yesterday. I very much believe that there's some things I just don't need to know. I just don't have to know it. I don't have to know when I'm going to die. I will debate the hypothetical about it on the radio yesterday. I very much believe that there's something I just don't need to know. I just don't have to know it. I don't have to know what I'm going to die.
Starting point is 00:54:27 I will debate the hypothetical about it with you forever. Sure. But I don't need to know the answer to that. Let's get into our voicemails. Actually, speaking of science, I do have a good Am I the Asshole for today. Oh, all right. Well, Am I the Asshole then? Am I the Asshole is brought to you by Postmates.
Starting point is 00:54:44 I have been – like obviously I am like King Postmates, right? And I just realized that I can order Rockwell's on Postmates. Rockwell's is like the like the local like burger joint American restaurant type of place in the town I grew up in where I went to high school. And, you know, I just haven't gone there in like 10 years because just haven't gone there in 10 years because we haven't lived there in 10 years. I'm like, dude, I can get the burgers. Those fries are fire. I get the chicken quesadilla, the wings, and then I get
Starting point is 00:55:13 the waffle with the ice cream for dessert. That's an unbelievable dessert. When it's your birthday, they give it to you for free. It's just a scoop of ice cream, chocolate or vanilla, your choice on a waffle. It's great. I like it on brownie. I like brownie sundaes.
Starting point is 00:55:28 The waffle is, think about it, it's like a waffle cone. It's like an ice cream cone, but it's waffle, and they put the chocolate sauce on it. Instead of regular syrup, it's chocolate syrup. It's unbelievable. So get on Postmates and check out your favorite restaurant that you might have forgot about. Most places are on there now. 25,000 different merchants ranging from restaurants to bars to liquor stores to pharmacies, grocery stores.
Starting point is 00:55:52 Everything you need can get delivered right to your house. I also pay for the unlimited at this point. I just pay, I think it's like, I want to say it's like $9.99 a month, no delivery charges. Oh. Which is like, if you order Postmates like once a month, twice a month, it's worth it. Yeah. So now I don't have to pay any delivery charges. You won't have to pay delivery charges for the first seven days up to $100 when you use the promo code KFC.
Starting point is 00:56:21 So for your first week, no delivery charges. After that, if you're going to order, like I said, twice a month, delivery charges range anywhere from like $1.99 to like $5.99 to some places. Pay a flat fee, $10 a month. They're also free. They're also free spots, I believe. Yeah, and some don't charge at all. So for me, I think it's called like an
Starting point is 00:56:39 unlimited member or something like that. I'm like, yeah. I'm going to the top, like gold star hardcore member of Postmates. That's like Postmates Prime. Yes postmates prime yes that's exactly how amazon hosts exactly what it is if you're amazon prime you might as well be postmates prime so download the postmates app use the promo code kfc get a hundred dollars off your delivery charges for the first seven days of your sign up am i the asshole let it rip so now uh i've just talked about how i wouldn't want to know uh some things but there are uncertainties and all that. Tests that only give you 80% accuracy.
Starting point is 00:57:08 There's one test that gives you pretty much – not pretty much, 100% accuracy. AIDS test? No. Would I be the asshole for asking my wife for a paternity test for our son, 5-year-old son? And he goes on and says, my son was born, he had a dark-skinned complexion. Wife and I are both rather pale. Now, originally I thought it was common in babies at birth. And as he got older, maybe something to do with the pigmentation would change and his skin color would look more like ours.
Starting point is 00:57:31 That never happened. Now, for some context, I feel it's necessary. Early on in our marriage, there were trust and fidelity issues when I caught her pretty much on the brink of an emotional affair with her coworker. We stayed together and reconciled. It wasn't easy, but I was glad we did. And she was very remorseful about how far she let things go the problem is that other guy has the same complexion my skin my son does now that realization has me very paranoid it's like i think this is this should be law and i i genuinely i'm not even really making jokes i don't understand why it's not law
Starting point is 00:58:02 at birth you think you have to get the test why it's people cheat we have exactly we're talking about with that we're like we can tell you what went wrong this is this is an 80 20 this isn't within 5 to 10 years hundo this can tell you if that's your kid yeah and i i think it's just safe for everybody yeah where it's not like the the guy who's the cheater or the guy who's you know the man she cheated with like he doesn't want to get caught in 16 years like oh by the way you owe 16 years back pay on child support everybody needs to know right now no right now yes is this my kid or is this not my kid yes i don't know why that's not it seems so simple also this is not that into some of the health tests you know like at like like, at, like, 16 weeks, you're like, okay, you know, you find out.
Starting point is 00:58:46 I forget. There's some tests at a certain point where it's like you have a very, very low chance of Down syndrome. They just check that. Yeah. It's just like, and they never tell you it's zero, but they tell you it's like, you know. 99999. Yeah, yeah. So it's just like.
Starting point is 00:58:57 I feel like even most. Just check all those boxes. Like, it's just like the baby's healthy and also yours. I feel like most, even most women would want to know know unless you are in one of those things you know it's a it's a very dangerous awful relationship where like say he's rich and you're you know you want to make sure you stay with him so he can provide for you whatever but i feel like in most regular relationships you'd rather just know i think that's the problem though is that because if there's even like one exception where it could be a problem they're not going to make it like mandatory you know what i mean but that's i mean that's a problem because of her still yeah it's her fault still right it's
Starting point is 00:59:28 one of those things where if you can just know for sure without a doubt who this belongs and i also think as society is getting like as we're becoming more and more modern you're realizing like you know having a kid is almost back to your economist friend it's like a kid is more of like a financial entity at this point like we have to worry about who's providing for it who's paying for it where it's gonna go how it's gonna live and like it's it's you know marriage in general is the idea of it's a made-up construct of society like we're in love and we have to be together and be monogamous and it's like biologically and all that shit, that that's nothing. That's fake.
Starting point is 01:00:07 You know what I mean? Same idea with like raising kids in a way. It's like, it's supposed to be this guy who's married to this girl who raises these kids. And it's like, it, it doesn't really have to be all that. You know what I mean? It's almost like we have to figure out financially and literally who's this is and who's going to have to provide for it. Very like scientific.
Starting point is 01:00:22 Who made this investment? Right. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. Why investment? Why am I, you, you made a risky investment, dude. Why have to provide for it very scientifically. Who made this investment? Right. That's what I'm saying. Why am I? You made a risky investment, dude. Why am I paying for it? Right. It makes no sense to me that it's not just a legally done thing.
Starting point is 01:00:32 We find out definitively who. We have the technology. Why do we not figure out who this definitively belongs to? It's not a bad idea. By the way, this guy, this girl fucked her black coat. I mean, I don't need the the needle i can tell you right now i saw me myself and irene yeah imagine being like i just you know uh here's a little background uh she fucked a big black guy uh 15 years ago it's like ah yep guess what that's
Starting point is 01:00:59 it right around like nine months before the baby came out i caught her walked in on her having sex with a black guy do you think it's like come on the i i also like just wouldn't the woman also not want to have that kind of stress like the i imagine that stress will kill you yo if you have 18 years of stress of lying to your husband right god one day he's gonna find out that this isn't his kid that stress will that will take the kid comes out with the same complexion and the guy buys the story maybe you're just like i guess i'm gonna get away with this one like thank god it's with the other guy he's got the smart guy's genes because this one's fucking stupid yeah man it took you five years to put this together this son is five you think she had like this plan i mean because she probably knew that there's a chance this is not
Starting point is 01:01:40 the husband's baby yeah and a kid comes out and she's still like in the stirrups and like oh wow yeah look at that doctor is that some kind of skin condition is that gonna clear up like yeah i mean if you if you are uh sexually active with multiple partners and you're pregnant and you've been having sex with guys of different races i would be like let's nip this shit in the bud like i am not trying to have this stress like i'm not gonna be freaking out my entire pregnancy and i'm not gonna be like with one eye like looking at as he pops out oh it looks white okay we're good you know hey that to me you you you gotta i think that is that the only thing funnier than that because like there is you know complexion can be weird like uh my my wife's
Starting point is 01:02:24 family like their their kids are like one a couple of them are like pale Irish babies. And one, the father's Italian and she came out Italian. And they always joke like it looks like they're different. She's always like, look, people think I cheated on my husband, you know. And like that complexion can happen. If you had like an Asian situation, like you come out with with an Asian facial features, that's fucked. You know what I mean? Imagine that.
Starting point is 01:02:48 If you know your wife's best work husband is an Asian guy and your kid comes out with an Asian face and it's like, oh, wow. Look at his eye condition. Yeah, right, right. Complexion really – and they do kind of come out purple. They kind of come out weird. I mean he called it a skin condition. I think that is something that babies do come out darker. kind of come out i mean you call it a skin condition i i get the i think that is something that like babies do come out yeah that's what i'm saying it does happen so
Starting point is 01:03:08 you can kind of look the other way and like oh it's just tan but like if it's like a facial structure or if like the hair is like nappy or something like you can't get around it i mean come on man i i uh but asking for like that that is something i'm gonna put in like my marriage thing i think i think prenups should be everyone should have to do it also do you need to ask do it right well i i think usually take the kid usually if the to the doctor the wife if the mother wants it she's gotta like get him on board unless you steal some of his hair or something like that. But if it's you, you can just go do it. You get the DNA from your kid.
Starting point is 01:03:53 I don't know. I'm surprised you can't 23 and me this right now. Get that kid to spit in a cup and send it somewhere. But I think to eliminate all awkwardness, prenups should be standard and paternity tests should be standard. More so the prenups, to be honest. It's just like, again, as society becomes modern and everyone's getting divorced and you realize we're entering into a wildly unrealistic financial agreement where it's like, okay, everything I've ever done is now half yours retroactively. Like, get the fuck out of here. So everyone should have to sign a prenup.
Starting point is 01:04:26 And then that way there's no awkwardness to ask. And Google says legally, or actually DNA testing.com says legally that, uh, as long as you're listed as the father on the kid's birth certificate, you do not need the mother's permission. Right. That's right.
Starting point is 01:04:40 It's probably good. Not if you're the other guy being like, that's my kid. Right. But he might be the father. Right. So you know what I mean? It's like you probably do have to have everyone agreeing to it.
Starting point is 01:04:50 But yeah, your wife definitely fucked that black guy. That definitely happened. So she's the asshole. Yeah, she's the asshole. Yeah, she's the asshole. And you're the sucker. You're not the asshole, but you're the sucker for sure. You certainly can't be called an asshole for being worried that this is not your kid.
Starting point is 01:05:10 No, not at all. I mean, you're an asshole for letting it go on for so long probably. But you know what? Girls are so – they wield the power and they're so – Oh, yeah. She's going to make him feel terrible for this. They can be so crafty and manipulative that you will feel like the asshole for even asking for it. Like I know when I – if I – I was so super whipped in my marriage that there were certain like things, like basic things I wouldn't ask for.
Starting point is 01:05:33 If I ever had to like stand up and be like, you probably cheated so I need a paternity – like I would never. I would never open my mouth. So there's definitely a situation where you would feel like an asshole but you are not. You are not the father and not the asshole voicemails are brought to you by one of the top responses was you are the asshole for waiting this long yeah yeah it depends on your definition of asshole voicemails are brought to you by arc whitening did you get your thing yet yeah i haven't used it yet okay i haven't used it either also i got two so i thought i might have got yours no i got two as well i thought I might have got yours. No, I got two as well.
Starting point is 01:06:05 I thought I might have got yours. I probably wasn't going to tell you. I probably wasn't going to tell you because I took a picture the other day at the Barstool Classic, and someone sent it to me, and they were like, I got a little over the top with the teeth whitening or whatever. And I was like, was that when they needed it? No, because they were too white. No, no, they did a face tune.
Starting point is 01:06:30 So they edited the picture for teeth whitening. And I was like, why? Your picture? Yeah. That's weird. And it was like they took it, and I just happened to send it to me. So what, did you get nervous that your teeth needed it or something? Yeah, I just got it in my own head big time.
Starting point is 01:06:43 I was like, well, why did you wait? Now I'm self-conscious about my teeth needing to be face-tuned wait that's fucked up when we were in um rough and rowdy at the super bowl when i was like sam donald yeah that whatever that lighting was like everybody's teeth looked yellow it was just like a strange lighting that happened it was a very yellow light yeah and and so of course i mean again like everybody sees in the picture did look yellow but people were giving it to me because everyone hates me and i was like i know that's not real i'm like looking in the mirror i'm like looking at the picture i'm like that's that's not that's not
Starting point is 01:07:19 what they look like but in that case like perception is reality as long as pictures are coming out like that even if it's weird lighting i got yellow teeth so i need to have white teeth you always say it what's the most important thing it's teeth i mean we just proved it with how much we're both freaking out over one bad picture that's all it takes and then it's in your head it's all about getting your teeth white but also being confident in your smile you know people who like they do like the no teeth smile they're trying to hide it because they got the yellow teeth that's so sad yeah you got to show off your pearly whites man and the arc treatment it does both it has uh dentist approved enamel safe whitening strips and then it also has the blue light mouth blue light mouthpiece which
Starting point is 01:07:55 is like when you go to the dentist and they're flashing those lights on it and you feel like they got this giant machine that's like actually painting your teeth white now you can have that at home so you do both you do the strips and you do the blue light and the blue light energy uh it helps weaken stains that are in your teeth so this is like this is some superhero shit yeah just blasting yeah with a blue light just knocking them off you know when you see like commercials for teeth and they like they make like a cartoon where you see like the plaque getting washed away and stuff like that i'm picturing like uh like knocking the stains off with the blue light.
Starting point is 01:08:29 You can get a smile. This is almost a joke. How many times more white if you use Arc versus your average toothpaste? 17. 50 times whiter.

I've always been like a radio nerd. I mean, I guess, you know, yeah, like I would rather be the best basketball player in the world than make millions of dollars. Yeah, I guess we can go that route. But being realistic, like I would rather be the best basketball player in the world and make millions of dollars. Yeah, I guess we can go that route.
Starting point is 01:09:46 But being realistic, like I've always – when I was doing that radio show solo the other day and I was thinking about like how much I've listened and like wanted to do it and then I was doing it, I was pretty happy. That's good. I think it's something I would – I think you're happy. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:03 Yeah. I guess I'm happy with my job i don't know it's like it's like i i hate like uh dave and i hate like the exposure and the difficult shit that goes along with barstool but the literal work that i do is like what i want to do i want to like talk that shit and argue and banter and opine and all that shit yeah that's a tough one uh i very much enjoy my job as well oh you know what though to be fun with it i would like to be uh i think i'd like to be like the best detective like sob all the fucking like like find the serial killers that would be dope that's a very cool one but, I've been thinking about a couple of things.
Starting point is 01:10:45 Like a plumber came to mind. What? I don't know. What? I don't know. That is the worst answer in KFC radio history. You want to know why? That just dethroned Dan fucking kissing dudes and having his girl be a limo driver.
Starting point is 01:10:57 I like plumbers. You don't see them becoming. What? Plumbers make so much goddamn fucking money. They do. And no one thinks about that and this is like yo i'm a plumber anyway do you want to take my private jet yeah they make bank because nobody wants to do that if i'm the best plumber in the world i have a private jet i have multiple houses and i can just like like i'm michael scott when he's telling girls he works
Starting point is 01:11:19 in finance so he's a bank teller and i'm just i'm just in the club like what's up babe yeah yeah no i'm balling out you right i'm cleaning those pipes i'm a plumber how's your fucking how's your septic tank looking i got you i'll fix that fucking shit that i i don't know why they give me fucking fun i just don't want to get up early in the morning best plumber though like what does that even entail like you just clean those clogs better than anybody i I fucking show up in a Super Mario costume every day. It's a me. Right down the fucking tubes. I'll fucking snake your hole, no problem. So many sexual puns come with being a plumber.
Starting point is 01:11:54 So many. You know that crack hangout? Yeah. You do it on purpose? Like wear the low-rise jeans, just pop it out, be a stereotypical private jet baller plumber. Yeah. What an answer. I'm in on it. I'm in onpical private jet baller plumber. Yeah. What an answer.
Starting point is 01:12:06 I'm in on it. I'm in on it. World's greatest plumber. I am the best plumber. The GOAT. I like blogging. I like doing my radio show or my podcast, whatever the fuck you call these things. I like doing Snapchat.
Starting point is 01:12:17 Oh, that's fun. If I was the world's best plumber, I'm flying to fucking Dubai on my PJ to go fix a salt in the toilet. Hell hell yeah that's a life baby instagram and that shit oh yeah you know what international plumber man a mystery in a mario costume i think this is this would be fun then i'm gonna just be the world's best electrician and we're gonna go into business together we'll keep the duo together you're gonna hire the kfc radio plumbing electrician and and and we are ballers dude we'd be like the best part about that would be like we'd be local not local be like national celebrities right like be on kimmel and shit being like we are uh the greatest uh like uh appliance fixers and and i
Starting point is 01:13:00 think that home creators in the world that was something on espn the ocho the other day like the best electricians and it was like guys like really up was something on ESPN and the Ocho the other day, like the best electricians. And it was like guys scaling up poles. Oh, wow. It was how they do that. They do it with firefighters and shit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it was like on the Ocho day,
Starting point is 01:13:12 they had like the electrician competition. That's hilarious. You could be doing that. I'd be out there. Plunge, plunge, plunge. I have to learn a couple more terms because I really only have snake and holes. What is it?
Starting point is 01:13:21 Roto-rooter or roto-rooter or whatever. Yeah, you could do a little roto-rooter. And I'll tell you what, too. It's pretty practical because my toilet breaks sometimes, and I don't know what to do. It's very frustrating. You know what's really bad about my toilet? You got to really push to flush.
Starting point is 01:13:36 So here's the little thingy, right? It pushes down easy like that, and then you got to really push down. So people push down like that, and they're like, oh, it's broken. I'm like, it's not broken. You just got to really push down so people like push down like that and they're like oh it's broken oh yeah i'm like it's not broken you just gotta you gotta push hard to get your poop down if you if i was your plumber man i'd fix that you wouldn't have to tell anyone actually i think you'd be such a good plumber you would revolutionize the plumber game why is that like like like there are new uh like i don't think they're big yet they're kind of in ballparks and shit there's those flushless toilets yeah you know i think you would come up
Starting point is 01:14:04 with shit like that it's not like oh i'll just fix your tank it's like i created a new toilet yeah i'm a thomas edison yeah if you google richest plumber a guy named charlie mullins comes up he founded pimlico plumbers in 1979 and he's worth approximately 70 million british pounds but that ain't shit though that ain't i feel like i have what 70 million pounds i'll make make $140 million? Because, no, you know what you would end up being? Get the fuck out of here. You'd be like Dr. Oz.
Starting point is 01:14:27 The pounds, I still say the pounds double us, like, back from, like, the one time I read a financial report in 2004. It is. That's a fact. I feel like it's much closer. No, it's double. It's double. It'll forever always be double. It's two times.
Starting point is 01:14:39 You know what you'd be like? It'd be like Dr. Phil. Yeah, he's a doctor, but now he's a fucking superstar. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You'd be, you know, it's a shame if a shame there's not like a title for plumber like if your name was like john feidelberg ppd or something like that you'd be a doctor of plumbing 1.21 dollars to british that's two it's two times it's double it's two times okay i don't want to hear it greatest plumber greatest electrician 70 million dollars not you? No, not for what we're talking about.
Starting point is 01:15:06 Not if I have to get up early in the morning. I've said it before. I wouldn't have taken Matt Lauer's job. He made $40 million a year. I would not take that job because he has to get up at 3 a.m. What do you think that creep's doing right now? I live in the Hamptons and it's fucking, I don't know. He's got hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars.
Starting point is 01:15:21 He's like, all right, I just won't hang out in public anymore. Probably got great plumbing in that place. Yeah. I'd go fix his. I'd reverse toilet him. Reverse toilet? Every time fucking Matt Lyle goes to flush the toilet, shit goes right back up his ass.
Starting point is 01:15:38 Next up. What's up, KMC, Spice, and Supermarket BC? Supermarket, that's a good one. Would you rather be paralyzed from the waist down or all of your sexual partners and all of the porn stars that you watch be paralyzed from the waist down? Got it. I don't want to be paralyzed at all. down. Got it.
Starting point is 01:16:06 I don't want to be paralyzed at all. By the way, just to go back to that last question, I don't think I'm the greatest radio person in the world. Just to be clear. I would want to stay radio and be the best at it. I get it. I don't want people thinking that I'm already the best. I'm good.
Starting point is 01:16:19 I don't want to be paralyzed. I don't want to be paralyzed either. I don't care if my porn star is paralyzed. It's not like I'm watching porn and they're doing calisthenics. They're usually laying down. Yeah, most of the time they're getting thrown around anyway. For all I know, all the porn stars I watch are paralyzed. Yeah, but it's both. What?
Starting point is 01:16:34 Both porn stars are paralyzed. How does it even work? You can't do that. You can't have sex if you're both paralyzed, right? Nah, because you need a chaperone for that. You need someone picking them up. So it would have to be like a machine. I'd have to get into that. You can't have sex if you're both paralyzed, right? Nah, because you need a chaperone for that. You need someone picking him up. So it'd have to be like a machine. I'd have to get into that fuck machine porn.
Starting point is 01:16:50 Yeah, I've had my fair share of that. Those things are crazy. I went through like a phase when I was younger. I knew you guys would have a solution. Put her in the stirrups like in pregnancy and bring in the fucking... That thing can fuck. It's actually very funny when it's it's very it's like a locomotive i've had it's like an old school train i watch it like an engineer i'm more fascinated by
Starting point is 01:17:10 the back of it rather than the actual vagina right i don't even look at your pussy i'm like wow that thing spins but the pole stays exactly straight i like when things spin like that but they're off yes right when it's a little like boom boom boom and that and then and then the the dildo's not going circular the dildo's going straight in and out but this thing's spinning it's crazy it kind of makes me feel like rubbing your head pat your tummy and this girl's getting fucked and then they like crank it up and it's like it doesn't seem enjoyable it doesn't seem like it seems like you're like getting really probed yeah you know like i'm not i'm pretty much in and out i'll mix in like a little swirly
Starting point is 01:17:46 i keep it pretty but for the most part straight in and out but those machines are so in and out that it's just like it feels like something's gonna it's gonna like rip something out of you yeah yeah it's like get over here you know rip out your heart sort of shit uh but yeah you know so to answer your question you just watch the girls get fucked by the machine, dummy. I mean, being paralyzed from the waist down is a – obviously the central theme here is watching porn and having sex. There's a lot more to life if you're paralyzed that's really fucking shitty. I want to be able to go to the bathroom normal. I want to be able to walk around.
Starting point is 01:18:18 I want to be able to – It would be weird, though, to have a girl's legs on your shoulders and they're just – They're dead. Yeah. Just hanging on there like you feel like a girl's legs on your shoulders and they're just they're dead yeah it is just hanging on there like like you feel like a general you know they have those like the uh like a general it like it like a um like like a like a communist country or like somewhere where you have a dictator i know where you're going like the shoulder pad the shoulder pads are just gonna fly in the wind with the tails on them it's a it's a crazy comparison though yeah but it works
Starting point is 01:18:44 yeah it's just like what is this dead thing on my shoulder flopping around yes and it's like well just like little feet just kind of hanging out here popping and then like it's something it's more like you know if you held them up if you were to let go they would just just tip timber yeah if i'm if i'm hooking up with a girl who's uh how that's the waist down she better have a tight core she got to have a strong strong core yeah you ever do that like back in sports when you like i guess it'd be like warm-ups in the field like someone basically sit on your face but they'd be standing and like you bring your legs up and they kind of just throw your legs and you have to stop them and bring them back up i haven't done it but i know you're talking about it oh it was yeah that
Starting point is 01:19:21 that's we that's how we'd have to course right we'd have to practice that for a while like i'd i'd have to become a physical trainer for the girls i'm about to fuck like all right so we got i got you on a six-week plan we can fuck at the end of january how about over every night we'll work out and then uh yeah come come the new year we'll start having sex i feel like you couldn't even do like dog style, right? No, I don't think so. Because their legs... You know what you would need to get? I've thought about getting these.
Starting point is 01:19:48 You know those pillows? The V pillows? The wedge pillows? Basically the things you used to play with in gym class. Yes. You'd have the little things you'd roll over. It's like gymnastics type deal. I'll tell you what.
Starting point is 01:19:57 Whenever I go to gymnastics with Shay and I see those pillows, I'm like... Might steal one. I'm just like, that would work. I've seen that. I've definitely like those are wild expensive are they they're like 399 because i remember being like seeing like it's like the back of a magazine or something like that i was like all right like let me look it up and it was like two easy installments of like 199.95 i was like for a fuck pillow foot for a block basically but yeah you would need those but i'm not being paralyzed no hey what's up guys uh so i read recently that there's about a million
Starting point is 01:20:36 ants for every human alive right now so i'm thinking uh if you're in like a gymnasium with like a million fucking like regular ants, not fire ants, nothing that's going to like really hurt you. And you have to kill all of them or they have to kill you. And we'll give it like what, a 24 hour period. Who's going to be the last man standing? Like, like, let's say you can only survive if you kill all million ants. Otherwise, you're dead. I don't know if it's like a hypothetical, but fuck it. You can do it. It's certainly a hypothetical.
Starting point is 01:21:12 It better not be a literal. Decidedly, that's a hypothetical question. How many ants could fit? I don't think you have a shot. If these ants want to kill you, they're regular ants. They're not fire ants. But if these ants want you dead, if they have that mentality, you don you have a shot. If these ants want to kill you, they're regular ants. They're not fire ants. But if these ants want you dead, if they have that mentality, you don't have a chance.
Starting point is 01:21:29 Really? Because here's, like, you – They're so small. I'm thinking, like, if you have, like, a gymnasium, what if a million ants is just, like, one layer covering the whole gym? Yeah, you're done. Can you just, like, start stomping around? No, ants can build ladders and stuff. Yeah, they build up. I remember just start stomping around? No, ants can build ladders and stuff. Yeah, they build up.
Starting point is 01:21:47 I remember I saw that tweet once where it said, ants can build a bridge to get to you. And I just said, to get to me? Yeah. Why do the ants want to get to me? What are you talking about? I guess in this situation... They're very spiteful ants. Yeah. Who headlines a tweet like that?
Starting point is 01:22:03 Ants can build a bridge to get to me yeah they climb up each other why did the ants decide that i had to go but the i'm trying to think how if you were going to fight them you you would i think would end up do i have access to water like a hose i think i'd win if i have a stream of water i don't think so you don't think i have access or i wouldn't win sure you can have access you still lose i think i would win no because it's it's i'm thinking like i would how I would die is I would die of suffocation. I would die. I would end up suffocating myself because before the fight started, I would rip my shirt or something and put it on my nose, put it in my ears because if they're trying to kill me, that's where they're going to go.
Starting point is 01:22:40 And then I would probably end up just wrapping it around my mouth too. How do you think they would kill you? Just go down your throat? You can't breathe? Fill me up. Fill me full of air. If I have a power washer, I'm winning. If I walk into a room, and again, I'm envisioning like a layer on the floor.
Starting point is 01:22:55 Well, you said hose. You didn't say power washer. Okay, fine. If I have a, but I have like a hose. Like it really is not just like a, I have a nozzle on it. I think I could like spray them step spray step spray step i don't think they're getting at me reddit says 20 million regular ants equals one human one average human so you need 20 million to like build a a human that's fine
Starting point is 01:23:20 i mean i think a smaller human can kill me the i i think they would again if they knew they were if they were able to know how to kill you and wanted to kill you i think they just crawl up you or if all of them decide right you get in the gym they're like now and all of them just come running at you like a wave of ants like those chinese tidal waves yeah there's just like way too many people and they're all they all get thrown everywhere but million ants just come barreling at you. And they just swarm you. But if he's saying 20 million is the size of a human,
Starting point is 01:23:52 like a wave the size of a human is not going to kill me. And 1 20th of a wave of a human is not going to kill me. But at least they can still swarm you. They can swarm you. It's not going to knock you down or anything, but it's just going to be like, they're all coming at you. You can't get rid of all of them. I'm thinking if I see a wave that's one-twentieth the size of a human thing, then again, I have my hose. And I can spray the wave and block some of the waves so they fall apart. I wouldn't even want to punch anything.
Starting point is 01:24:18 If a guy is 200 pounds, you're talking about fighting ten Fighting a ten pound Human I think you beat the shit out of these ants I think they come up But even if they come together It's a ten pound thing They're not all one It's not like No but I'm just saying
Starting point is 01:24:37 It's just like some come up one leg Some come up the other leg Honestly if one Ant got in my nose I'd freak out I'd probably chop my own head off It's like stepping on seaweed I my nose, I'd freak out. I'd probably chop my own head off. It's like stepping on seaweed. I'd be like, ah!
Starting point is 01:24:47 Ah! I'd be going nuts. I'd be digging. I'd poke my own brain. As soon as you get me off my game, once I'm out. One guy gets there. It's done for me. John's going to lose to one.
Starting point is 01:24:58 A ant. One ant could kill John. A single ant gets there. What happened? Well, an ant got in his ear. He blew his head off. There's no stopping. My whole game's off and I'm focusing on that one ant.
Starting point is 01:25:11 All the other ants are going to my ears, my nose. I'm done. Ants are so small, dude. So small. If we're like cockroaches, maybe. Centipedes, sure. Ants and a hose. So is the AIDS virus, Kevin.
Starting point is 01:25:23 You need a microscope to see that. AIDS and ants let's do the last voicemail it's brought to you by cb distillery uh you got any health concerns not really you don't no i'm pretty good right now i mean minus the chronic back pain minus uh the like insomnia i have health concerns I've learned to live with.

Starting point is 01:27:00 Promo code KFC. Yo, what up? White, KFC, Super Soaker, BC. I just got a question. Me and my buddies have been talking about it. How many clones of yourself would it take to beat Mike Tyson in his prime in a fight? One of my buddies said four. Four?
Starting point is 01:27:17 A hundred thousand. I'd love to hear what you guys have to say. I mean, I'm leaning much more towards a hundred thousand. Four? You think Mike Tyson can... I mean, unless your buddy is like towards 100,000. Four? You think Mike Tyson can't? I mean, unless your buddy is like a UFC professional, UFC fighter or something. Mike Tyson can't beat up four other humans? Don't even tell me you're leaning towards that.
Starting point is 01:27:36 No. I mean, I'm leaning closer to that than I am 100,000. I was going to say like 12, maybe. It wouldn't be. I don't know, man. I think 12. I guess me right now, can I kill me 10 years ago? Yeah, maybe like you in your prime. I mean me at any level, it's 50.
Starting point is 01:27:58 To like kill him, right? I think it's less than you think. I mean first of all, Kevin, you say the midgets would win the fucking versus a lion. No, I don't. Oh, you don't? No. I thought you always said that 30 midgets could beat a lion. No, I mean, I'd probably argue it,
Starting point is 01:28:13 but the lion's winning. Okay. I think the hardest thing for me, can my clones... Imagine Mike Tyson kicking and kneeing and biting and fighting for his life. Could some of them just not... He's a lion.
Starting point is 01:28:23 ...not get in the cloning process? Could they just not be a pussy? Because that was the hardest thing for me would be all of us scaring around the ring being like,
Starting point is 01:28:33 all right, which one's going in first? No, no, no, no. It's you, bro. All right, so if all 12 goes at once, I think once you get one person on his neck,
Starting point is 01:28:40 and I guess if you just punch him in the fucking dick, you have 12 people punching him on his dick while two are pulling his eyes and one's choking i'm i'm going sub 10 really i'll go i'll go eight i'm gonna go like like like look 50 000 it's again one of one of my babies one of my children will have to be sacrificed someone's gotta take a punch it's not gonna be me someone's gonna have to take a punch. And I will stalk him from behind.
Starting point is 01:29:07 And I can just get on him. And I'm pretty big. I can just get on him and wrap. If I can wrap both hands and wrap my legs around his hips, and then everyone else just starts walking him, that's it. So eight, final answer? I think eight, and i'm coming towards less i'm gonna go six six of me can take mike you're you're on top of him he just like
Starting point is 01:29:32 smashes you against the wall or just drops to his back and you're fucking dead that one's dead your ribs are fine you drop to your back yes okay fine i die in that case never mind so it's a different clone behind me as well i'm both basically i'm the coach so i'm telling everyone where to go uh i think once mike tyson gets the one guy off his back and then he keeps a wall to his back and you can't get on his back well no this is taking place in a ring oh it is okay yeah i mean that's that's how we're taking place in a boxing ring okay that's how i'm I'm seeing this. I was thinking it was fight to the death. And it is fight to the death, but it's in a boxing ring. Okay. And if he goes down, he takes me down, fine.
Starting point is 01:30:11 He probably fucks up my rib cage. I probably have a tough time breathing for a few weeks. But once he's down, my other five guys jump on him. I mean, I get what you're saying. I just think Mike Tyson is going to be punching fucking faces, knocking heads off, and breaking necks. And if you say... All right, five, we'll what you're saying. I just think Mike Tyson is going to be punching fucking faces, knocking heads off, and breaking necks. And if you say... All right, five, we'll set this one up.
Starting point is 01:30:29 Me versus... I mean, Mike Tyson versus five me's. Let's go. I'll have that fight. Tyson versus five John Feidelberg's. Five John Feidelberg's win. Time for the interview. We got Lost Kings on with us today.

Actually, I was going to say you didn't get the full Barstool experience, but I think actually you did get the full Barstool experience. That's when we were just like throwing shit together

You just like start fucking around on the computer, start making some music, start making some beats and like see what happens, right? Yeah, absolutely. Definitely. This office is nice now.
Starting point is 01:33:17 Yeah, man. I mean, did you guys have a moment where like when I walked into this office for the first time, I was kind of like, not like, oh, we made it, but I was like, whoa, this is real. And I kind of had an epiphany in a way of like, we're really doing it. Did you guys have a specific song or maybe a tour date or a venue or an event where you were like, wow, we made it? I think we've had two moments that kind of like spread apart. I'd say the first one was like early, early on when we, uh, we did a remix that got played on the radio, like nonstop still plays to this day. Which is what? It was a Disclosures Lash.
Starting point is 01:33:53 And that like kind of got us like, that really got us moving. Cause like that built our like initial fan base. It got us like our agent, our manager, like all that kind of stuff. Um, sped that process along. That was like super early on that kind of sped up the process. And then I'd say this year, the beginning of the year, we did our first like venue tour, like hard ticket tour and, uh, sold out pretty much every day.
Starting point is 01:34:15 And that was like a moment to see people that bought like, I think out of 15,000 tickets on the whole tour, We did like 14,000 and some like, yeah. And so like, that was a huge moment because we had been doing so many clubs and like, you know, we did festivals and we've done a bunch of stuff and we've traveled all over. But,
Starting point is 01:34:34 uh, but to do that, like kind of was like a big fuck you to everybody because like, especially promoters that maybe didn't believe in us. This was like, no, our music's fucking reaching people and people know about us and they bought tickets to see us so now we can prove our worth when we go to places or when we up our fee and all that kind of stuff so that like and we're about to do another tour the
Starting point is 01:34:54 you know uh to finish up this year so like it's it's great man that was a big moment yeah yeah what was crazy is all the venues that we did, people weren't stumbling into them randomly. You had to buy a ticket, go to the show. Seek it out. You wanted to go. So it was amazing to see some of the venues that we really wanted to play sell out, and they were there just for us. So it was a sick moment for us, for sure. I feel like I get the vibe. Last time we spoke, I kind of mentioned other DJs and other music, and you guys were kind of like yeah no listen like we respect them but like like we're doing our own thing and then to
Starting point is 01:35:28 hear you be like you know fuck some of the promoters and people who didn't believe in us i feel like you're kind of motivated a little bit by you know not like a grudge or whatever but just like a little competitive spirit and oh oh we've always had that attitude i remember last time we talked i went on a rant and I always I always do because I feel like a lot of kids are like around our age now and a lot of artists we are both 30
Starting point is 01:35:54 just 30 yeah yeah but like I feel like even like up and comers and really artists that are up and comers have this like they portray this like insecure attitude on social media but then like are still like about their shit it's like they play both sides of it like they portray this like insecure attitude on social media but then like are still like about their shit it's like they play both sides of it like they're insecure and they play this like oh what was like i'm lonely but like i also really fuck with my shit and fuck you like
Starting point is 01:36:14 so i don't really like that both yeah yeah i don't like the either one or the other and so like i come from the attitude of like um you know where i'm gonna believe in what the fuck i'm doing like i don't give a shit about nobody else like we believe in what the fuck i'm doing like i don't give a shit about nobody else like we believe in making music and i don't really yeah every i hate i hate the question like who you guys like what other djs do you like i don't like anybody because like we're trying to we're coming for their job yes yes yeah like yeah talking about yo it's like that uh we go because the hard knocks thing i mean i'm sure you like the the what john gruden said that nightmares thing yeah i like i love that i love I'm sure you saw like the, the, the, what John Gruden said, that nightmares thing.
Starting point is 01:36:45 I like, I love that. I love that attitude, man. That's like the attitude that we want to embody. Like, well, you know, people ask me what,
Starting point is 01:36:51 how many, what podcast you listen to? Zero. I don't listen to my makeup. I don't want to hear your shit. I don't want to even be influenced by it. I want my own style, my own voice,
Starting point is 01:37:00 my own points, my own opinions. Like, I don't need that. Yeah. And it's not, you know, it doesn't have to be like, fuck you. We have beef, but it's't need that yeah and it's not you know it
Starting point is 01:37:05 doesn't have to be like fuck you we have beef but it's just more like i'm not you know i'm not here to like kiss anybody's rings or whatever you know no we don't like that attitude yeah that's we've tried to have that from the beginning i feel like that's a sports attitude a little bit yeah you guys both like sports fans oh yeah you see the lakers hat on here what the fuck man you're lakers fans well i'm from baltimore. I never had a basketball team. So when I moved out to LA 10 years ago, I had to pick one up. All right, 10 years long enough. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:37:29 That's decent. I'm a Celtic fan. Yeah, you're a Boston guy, right? You're a Boston guy. What do you think about Kyrie? I hate him. Yeah. I honestly think I've never hated an athlete more.
Starting point is 01:37:41 Really? He's your number one? He's my number one. Meaning from one of your own teams? You've never even hated athlete more. Really? He's your number one? He's my number one. Meaning like from one of your own teams? Like you've never even hated like a rival more than? Yeah, I think both. And I think it was like mid-season. I'm like, man, I hate this guy.
Starting point is 01:37:55 I've never heard somebody talk so much shit. The whole season. It was just brutal. Like I've never seen somebody call out their teammates the way that he did and like make it so about him. And when you could shut down rumors and just focus on the season, he refused to do it. He brought all that on himself.
Starting point is 01:38:11 Yeah, and it's then like you can't team up with LeBron, so you go to the Celtics who are like the best situation for this. You lead a team. It's amazing young players. Something's wrong there. There's a common denominator eventually. You know what I mean? I also, I mean, I know it's tough. I. Something's wrong there. There's a common denominator eventually. You know what I mean? I also – I mean I know it's tough.
Starting point is 01:38:28 I know the media is hard. I know it's probably tough in the spotlight. But that's why you make like $30 million a year and that's part of the gig is to be able to answer those questions in a way that doesn't blow everything up. Give the fucking generic answer, man. He would always go too deep and, yeah, I'm glad he's gone. I'm a Kem guy now, so. Yeah, I mean, that dude, he was destined for somewhere after UConn and somewhere in the Northeast where fans know him and love him. We'll see what happens.
Starting point is 01:38:54 I'm a Knicks fan, so life doesn't matter. Life doesn't fucking matter at all. The real reason I want to talk to you guys today is because I'm working on some sneaker content here at Barstool. And I feel like there's kind of a connection between music and sneakers in a way. Between personal styles and you see how many actual musical acts are influencers in that world. Do you feel like there's something there? Yeah, I feel like it was so crazy.
Starting point is 01:39:22 I mean, the progression from even in the world, in that little section of music, I remember when we first started, like, everybody kind of had this, like, style, and it was, like, the Roshis in the very beginning, and then it's, like, progressed to all this, like, hype-y shit, like, everybody's wearing off-white. So it's, like, now it's, like, the game is to try and find something that nobody's wearing. And so that's, like, that's a game in itself. That becomes a competition. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:39:48 But there's a huge correlation because I like having sick-ass shoes when I'm getting my photos taken, playing shows. There's something about it's like you just walk differently. You've got a confidence about you. You know you've got some. If you care, though, it's funny because I care about it. We care about it. And then there are guys I know my age
Starting point is 01:40:05 my style everything else is similar and they're like I don't give a fuck what kind of shoes I wear and I'm like to me I'm like what but it's funny
Starting point is 01:40:12 within the world if you're into it it's like the end all be all and if you're outside of it you don't get it at all well they buy the same pair of creative recreation we got a guy here
Starting point is 01:40:21 all business Pete he wears a pair of I believe they're Sheltos Adidas Sheltos that are like gotta be 15 years old they are like they're supposed to be white they're fucking brown and i was like let me i'll buy you another pair yeah no i like these i'm like no it drives me crazy yeah it's hard to wear it's hard to wear like in our world because we're always in nightclubs they're always in yeah that's hard man it not. Yeah, that's hard, man. It's like it's always a game. I feel like I got to bring a beat up pair and I got to have like a nice pair.
Starting point is 01:40:49 So it's like if I know we're going to a spot or a venue where like we're going to be in our own green room and like we're going straight to the stage and I'm not going to be out in like mud or like whatever, then I feel more comfortable wearing shoes. But like if not, it's like really hard to wear. Like we play festivals where we've had to throw our shoes out. I believe it, yeah. After the show, I remember one festival, we went right to the mall, threw out the shoes, bought new shoes, and wore them out the mall.
Starting point is 01:41:14 It was that bad. I beat up my shoes pretty good. I've been wearing the shoot-arounds a lot. The Fear of Gods and just beat those up. Those are like black and not white. You like those over the actual Fear of God ones? Shoot-arounds? I mean,
Starting point is 01:41:29 I thought it was interesting that they dropped those at the same time because they're so similar, and they're both expensive, but one was obviously much more expensive. I actually like the Shoot-arounds a little more in a way, but obviously the Fear of God ones had the clout factor, but I was kind of like, you know, I actually like these a little better. I think part of it, though, is because we both, like, you know, it's – we also like to not buy a lot of the same things, you know?
Starting point is 01:41:52 Ah. And he got – You guys got to go, like, shopping together almost. Yeah, so, like – You get this and I'll get that? I was kind of, like, the first on the – like, I got the original ones and I got the tan ones. And then, like, I actually bought the white ones, too, like the tan ones. And then I actually bought the white ones too, the ones. But I got rid of them because I'm like, yo, I just can't wear them.
Starting point is 01:42:10 They're a hard shoe to wear because they're a little bulky. And you got to wear the right pants with them. Plus, all white, I can't wear those. I love white shoes, but I can't. They'll get ripped up. See, that's the weirdo in you. When you think about it, it's like, I love these shoes. I can't wear them.
Starting point is 01:42:27 Yeah, dude, that's so annoying. But there's something about when you, like, muddy up a pair or step in some shit. It's like, I'd rather have not worn them at all. Oh, I don't know, though. At the same time, people who buy shoes and then just don't wear them drive me crazy. It's like, you know, they're shoes. They're on the ground. You walk up.
Starting point is 01:42:41 People get mad at me. They're like, oh, your ones are creased. I'm like, I'm walking. The're like oh your ones are creased like what i'm walking like the toe box is going to be creased like if you you if you change the way you walk so that your sneakers don't crease here i i i i like you're either you're a fucking loser you're poor i don't know i'll buy another pair if they're like you know what i mean to me it's like you gotta you know wear them people like how do you keep them clean it's like sometimes i don't i just you know we're also too like the styles change man like if you know, wear them. People are like, how do you keep them clean? It's like, sometimes I don't. I just, you know, wear them.
Starting point is 01:43:05 Also, too, like the styles change, man. Like if you don't wear them, like I've had that happen. I've done that before. Like I've been that guy like back, like getting a lot of shoes. I'm like not wearing them as often as I'd like to. And then it gets to a point where it's like, well, these aren't like the coolest shoes to wear anymore. Let me, you know, and I'm like, I should have just wore them, you know. It's like just wear them and then like get the new thing.
Starting point is 01:43:24 What's the new thing? So you mentioned it though. Like there is this hype beast, you know it's like just wear them and then like get the new thing what's the new thing so you you mentioned it though like there is this hype beast you know section of it all and there is this idea of what's in and out i kind of like i kind of just wear what i want to wear in a way you know like you obviously want to have the cool shoe and you want people to go oh shit yeah but at the same time like uh to me like the off-white craze was like I got the Prestos. I like those. I like the – I don't have them, but like the all-white ones. Cool.
Starting point is 01:43:50 But like every single thing that dropped, everyone was all about. Yeah. You can't like every single thing just because it's one designer and one name. That's what kind of personally killed me about it because it was like it was such a – everywhere you go, it like such an easy flex like everybody was like oh all those off-whites it's like they're cool shoes but they're like at the end of the day like the dude just jazzed up that's what i mean a shoe that's already dope like yeah you know i'm not saying i like him i like him and i like a lot of the shoes but uh but yeah i i just like everybody it got to a point where everybody had them so i'm like what else is dope that like people will realize oh that's a that's a flex you know what i mean or
Starting point is 01:44:29 i don't know it's just like such a big craze at one point it was like all right everybody's got them now yeah in a weird way it was like they were expensive and hard to get yeah but yet everyone kind of seemed to have them or know about them especially the basic like the basic ones too that came out like we were at the fortnight tournament the other day it's the same thing there's every little kid who was playing fortnight in yeezy the three yeah every kid yeah it's tough when those are dead i hate what yeah i hate when i have a shoe or some street wear or whatever it is that i really like and then you realize that it's basically like every kid's bar mitzvah gift you know like ah fuck i guess i can't wear this anymore but like just know i kind of it was cool before that kid you know i i go back and forth it's like sometimes
Starting point is 01:45:13 i want to just say i don't fucking care if this guy's wearing it that kid's wearing it if he says it's cool if he says it's out like if i like it i'm gonna rock it if it's expensive like to me i don't care if it's yeah you want the flex and you want it to be like I'm the only one with this shoe. But if it's a widespread release and a lot of people have it but you like that shoe, fucking rock it. You know what I mean? To me, it's like, yeah. I don't know. These weren't $1,000 on resale.
Starting point is 01:45:37 And, yeah, they're available right now. They're sitting on the shelves. But I don't know, man. It looks like I like the outfit. I like the way it looks like yeah if you can't if you can't have your own personal style without it being based on you know the numbers and the and the the amount of money and all that shit like what are you even doing it for yeah like i'm not gonna buy a shoe just because it's like a hard flex but it doesn't go with anything that i'm wearing you know like i'm all about functionality too like if i
Starting point is 01:46:02 like right now i'm obsessed with the John Geigers and those go with literally every pair of pants that I have in my closet. And like not a lot of people know about that. It's like an up and coming dude. And like that right now I feel like is my favorite shoe just because it's functional as fuck. Like I can wear it with everything and it's comfortable, you know, it's like easy to get on.
Starting point is 01:46:23 Like I like that too. If I like a shoe that's functional like that too if i like a shoe that's functional like that i would buy it in balk if i could right right yeah i mean to me i feel like when the last off whites that came out that were like basically those like hiking mountain shoes you see those ones oh yeah yeah yeah yeah and they got like spikes on them and weird shit and everyone was like these are fucking dope and i'm like do you actually think that you're down with some sort of like outdoor hiking fucking spike shoe cool but i know you and you're not down with that so why are you yeah you're walking around new york city in those what are we doing here kind of makes no sense to me but um so so what like like functionality wise like you're you're
Starting point is 01:47:02 gonna like you're out to the club you're djing all night long you're you're going to be on your feet the whole time, jumping around fucking crazy. What's, like, the go-to pair there? Right now, it's, like, the Gaggers. Yeah, I've been wearing those a lot, bro. I love those. Is there ever any thought, like, I don't care what they look like, I just want to be, like, comfortable right now while I'm playing my set, or is it always about the look, too?
Starting point is 01:47:19 It's a little bit of both. Like, I wear the blazers a lot. Yeah. Like, I have the off-white blazers but then i have uh like the or not the um what are they the stranger things i just got the stranger things i got the sakai blazers i think that those sneakers just in themselves are like kind of like wearing a basketball shoe right they have a little style to them right yeah because it's about the shape you know like i know he likes that shape like it's and that's like a functionality like you'll
Starting point is 01:47:44 buy every shoe in that cut like in different color ways if it's functional for you and you like the way it looks with your pants and stuff i think that's like a big i'd rather i i think i'm becoming or caring more about functionality more so than like is it hype enough right right you get a little older also once you once you've had a few of those shoes it's like all right yeah i have flexed here i flexed there whatever like i always have to have yeah and you know you're gonna be most expensive yeah beat them up like so much like for me it's like i'm not gonna spend fifteen hundred dollars on a pair of shoe when i know that i'm gonna be in like a frat house and somebody's gonna spill like yep their juice we've had that happen so like why would i get and you know what like again when if
Starting point is 01:48:21 it's from someone outside of the sneaker world like they don't even get it. They're like, oh, shoot, I'm sorry. And it's like, you don't realize what you just did. Like, ugh. You just ruined a knife through my heart right now. What was your – actually, before I ask this question, I feel like you got – like, have you ever got a shoe and you've been like, oh, fuck, I wanted that one, but he got it first? Because I kind of have that a little bit with Feidelberg,
Starting point is 01:48:43 where a shoe will come out and it's almost like I'll text him about it first being like yo I think these are dope almost like dibs like I'm gonna buy these ones um I'm trying to think there's definitely been that yeah um that's pretty funny when you think about it you guys are like a married couple you know yeah I'm sure the fear of gods bro like I'm sure like I don't know how you felt about that, but, like, I'm trying to think, like, the big releases of recent, like, the Wotherspoons, the Travis Scott's, the fear of gods, some of the ones that are, like, must-haves.
Starting point is 01:49:15 Is it, like, up for grabs? I would say he didn't get these, but I still want them as the low-top waffles, bro, the Chicago. I love the green. And I know everybody's. I remember the drop on, like, the black, white, and gray, because that's more the chicago i love the green oh yeah and i know everybody's number the drop on the like the black white and gray because that's more my style i love the whites the whites they're just i know they're gonna be so hard to get but i'm gonna try and get those but those are the ones i really want right now if you i feel like uh for me if i could get to a point
Starting point is 01:49:39 in my career where i could just get like any show i wanted i think i would actually take like less money as my salary for that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like the perk of that for me would be worth like, yeah.
Starting point is 01:49:49 Like, let me take a pick up, but I get all of the sneakers. I could just get everything. Like you imagine just getting to the point where you're not like, ah, he's gonna be tough to have, or like,
Starting point is 01:49:56 Oh, I don't want to drop 1500 bucks on it. If you were like either so rich or so plugged in, then it's just like, I get every single shoe I want. It's like, it's not a matter. Like we could definitely get, I wouldn't have trouble getting it if I really wanted them.
Starting point is 01:50:08 I just don't know. No, but it's just like $160 shoe that I know is going to be like $500, $600. At some point it's still just like, it's like, yo, come on. No matter, I feel like no matter how, you know, wealthy you get or successful you get, if you have some sort of practicality about you, it's just like, this is silly. It was like those first off-white Converse that came out, and they were going for like $1,400, and it's like, bro, that's a see-through Converse.
Starting point is 01:50:34 That's like $80. That was the epitome of hype to me. Well, same thing with the Fear God Vans, bro. I got a couple of those in the beginning, but I never got the original white ones, and I refused to spend $1,200, $1,300 on a pair of those in the beginning but like i couldn't i never got the original white ones and like i refuse to spend 12 1300 bucks on a pair of vans like i just i love vans but i'm not i'm not spending that much because they're gonna get they get fucked up easy and they're not hard to clean right like some shoes are really easy to clean like the fear then the nike fear gods
Starting point is 01:50:59 easy to clean there's like a you know if they're not easy to clean like especially vans and and converse like i'm not gonna spend that much like the canvas yeah yeah yeah material yeah what was your first uh like your first sneaker was it or like like for me i was growing up watching basketball the 11s patent leather 11s to me was like what sucked me into the like sneaker world and at that point i never even got them first time around i had to wait till they got retro and i was older uh but for me once i i got a little bit of money in my older age probably like late 20s i started to go back and get all those shoes that i remember as a kid yeah so do you have one of those would be a basketball shoe
Starting point is 01:51:39 or some sort of drop that always stuck in your mind uh for me as a kid it was all i was i was big into skateboarding but before that so it was all i was i was big into skateboarding but before that so it was all about skate shoes it was also uh the la gears were like a big thing for me when i was a little kid with the light up and that was yeah that was way back and then like i wouldn't get a new pair of shoes unless i was just talking about this with somebody else uh i wouldn't get a new pair of shoes like until the school year started so that was like the real time to get a pair of shoes. And so I didn't get on the Jordans until later on.
Starting point is 01:52:10 But yeah, that's my fondest memory, I feel like, is the LA Gears and then skate shoes. I was always skateboarding, so it was those big, bulky airwalks, at-knees, all that shit. Bulky, fat. Yeah, bulky and fat. The dunks with the thick thongs. Yeah, exactly. What about you?
Starting point is 01:52:24 You got one that set you off? I always played basketball, so the first pair of sneakers that I became obsessed with and then continued to buy those were the T-Max. Wow. The Adidas. Yeah, the black with the blue stripes. Yeah. And we have a guy who works at Adidas, and they have some T-Max they sell just in China because he's still big there. Right. So I just got another pair of T-Max. Ha just in like China because he's like still big there. Right.
Starting point is 01:52:45 So I just got like another pair of T-Max. Ha ha. I ship them from China. I love it, man. They're like McDonald's colors. They're gross. Just the thought of having T-Max, I'm like this is – I'm happy with this. I know exactly.
Starting point is 01:52:57 Like I got a couple that I – a couple pairs that I bought that I just wanted to like physically have, almost like a collection item. Like I don't wear them too much. Like they're bright colors or whatever this shoe may be, but sometimes it's just knowing that you got them. Especially something that's a throwback where it's like, if they're not heavily retroed like they do with some Nikes,
Starting point is 01:53:14 I don't know if they're going to be around. Right now, the Penny 2s are very hard to find. Everything is completely used. I don't mind buying slightly used or slightly worn or slightly worn whatever but these are like beat up to shit and i'm like if i can get my hands on a pair like dead stock two penny twos right now i'd pay big money and i would probably that would be a shoe i probably wouldn't wear i would just look at it i didn't need to fucking have it yeah yeah yeah because some have like the sentimental value more than anything else yes that you just want to have because it means something even that that, like that one, you know, sometimes, especially with basketball shoes,
Starting point is 01:53:47 it's like, it's a little bit silly when it's like this is meant to be on the court or meant to be, you know, when you're wearing like basketball shorts. If you're trying to like dress proper or go somewhere, maybe you can't rock it, but just having it. I would do that with the Kanye Louis collection, bro.
Starting point is 01:54:01 Like those, yo, those were so crazy. And so like, I feel like just at a time when nobody was like i mean like people were like into sneakers but it's such a different thing at that time i feel like and it was so limited like i just and the reason why i say that is i just saw those somebody was selling those for like five grand i know all like the the original yeezy, the Nike ones, like thousands of dollars. Dude, that's insane. Red Octobers and the Glows and all that shit. Are you in on the like Adidas Yeezys? I'm not.
Starting point is 01:54:32 I was in the – like the only ones that I really liked were the first two original ones, like the original 750s and the Turtle Dove ones. Past that, like I was kind of into it, kind of not not but then like it became such a thing they were hard to get and like i couldn't easily we couldn't easily get them at the time like um he actually uh he got them first and then uh which ones totaled up no the first ones i got were the tans yeah oxford tans that's the one i love they were sick yeah i still got those and like i ended up grabbing a couple other pairs as they got more and more easy to acquire like i like the blue tint because i like blue i got the sesames because i think those kind of go with everything but the originals like and even in the beginning i guess
Starting point is 01:55:13 i did kind of come around on them but i mean they're they're a weird shoe you know what i mean and props to him for kind of breaking the mold and and obviously the the industry followed that direction but even that was a point where i was like, man, if this was not attached to Kanye West's name, you motherfuckers would not be buying these. And that's part of it. I get it. But, yeah, I think it kind of like spiraled out of control a little bit. Again, not every single one has to be the greatest ever. You can like certain colors.
Starting point is 01:55:39 That's okay. Yeah. You know, I, uh, the, the, like, what's like your grail shoe? Like the one you don't have, what would it be? Would it be the Kanye Lewis? Yeah. Those are so insane, bro. Like those high top ones with the pink bottoms. Like those are insane, bro. Those are crazy.
Starting point is 01:55:56 I don't know how functional they, I mean, like I saw a picture of them actually. And I guess like I had built the hype up in my mind cause I hadn't looked at them in a while. And like, I saw real photos of them, like, not like not like uh now like the photos yeah yeah and like the back is kind of thick and i'm like i don't know if i'd wear those because i like one of my least favorite things yeah yeah yeah pictures kith does that all the time kith pictures are fucking beautiful with weird lighting and then i'm like that's a different color in real life it doesn't even look like that at all you know i'd still yo i would if i wanted to spend – if I ever spent the money, I would definitely still get the original 750s that Grace – he had those for a minute, but they were like broken, right?
Starting point is 01:56:32 Yeah, so it was kind of crazy. We played a show up in Portland, and it was like right around the Yeezy hype. I think I had a Yeezy hat on, and he had Ultra Boosts on. And after the show, these kids came up to us. They're like, oh, you guys like Adidas? Like, yeah, I mean, that's what's hot right now. We're into it. They're like, yeah, we all work at Adidas.
Starting point is 01:56:50 Come to our house. It's like they're pretty much having a big after party at this Adidas house. We go there, and one of the kids is like, yo, what size are you? Like, I'm a 13. He's like, well, I have something in 11 1⁄2 you may like. Cram those toes in, bro. I will bind my feet. Who needs them anyway?
Starting point is 01:57:09 Just chop them off. He brought me up to his room. He has like four pairs of like the OG 750s, the grays. And he's like, just try it on. He's like, I think the zipper's broke, so I'll give you the one that the zipper's broke. I put them on, and the zipper's not broke. So he legitimately just gave me the pair of OG 750s. Oh, shit. But I just sold them. I traded them on, and the zipper's not broke. So he legitimately just gave me the pair of OGs. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 01:57:25 But I just sold them. I traded them. For what? I got the Shootaround Grey Fear Gods, and I got the Serenas. Okay. The off-white Serenas. It's a good trade. Yeah, I mean, because I can't wear it.
Starting point is 01:57:40 Who'd you trade them with? We got this little 18-year-old. His name's Ben. He's like the sneaker kid Ben pretty much. He goes to Bentley and pays for his school. Got it. That's what I meant earlier by saying he's our guy. If I want to get anything, he'll definitely get it.
Starting point is 01:57:57 I think I've texted a couple times with him. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But he's still going to have to pay more than what – I get him. But I've always thought there's room for some sort of app that's like a trading platform. There's StockX and Goat and even eBay just to buy them. But just to connect people being like – because if you really want a pair, you could – it's like fantasy sports. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:58:21 If you really want a player, you can get a haul for it. So connecting everybody and like – but the problem is fakes and all that shit but that's my million dollar idea don't fuck you can kind of do that sort of trading platform you can kind of do that on grail but a lot of like some guys like to do it some guys don't i saw a guy recently he was selling the he was because i'm trying to get another pair of the geigers and the cream ones and he was like uh uh he's like yo i'm selling these i think for like 400 bucks but he's like i'll take the waffles's like, I'll take the waffles. He's like, I'll take the waffles if you have them.
Starting point is 01:58:47 I'm like, yeah, I don't have those. Good to know. If you could have unlimited Nikes or unlimited Adidas for the rest of your life, what are you picking? Nike. Checks over stripes. The Adidas thing was just like such a – it's so crazy how that was just like hot for like a second you know because like i i mean i had a shit ton of ultra boosts at one point and i always liked the original whites like i had a bunch of those and we would always we had adidas plug for a minute
Starting point is 01:59:16 so he would hook us up for free and send us ultra boosts but then that shit died out so fast and we got rid of every single one of them right but it's like nike was always like i feel like always there even though that that was only like adidas is like crazy hype i feel like if they didn't have kanye like nobody buying the shoes kanye came yeezy dropped ultra boost basically like is kind of a variation of a yeezy and he put on the ultra boost like that shoe doesn't blow up unless it was for him so So, like, I know it was big. I know they popped. But when you think about, like, all right, so now Yeezys are more, like, widespread release, kind of becoming more common. He's also getting, like, real weird with it.
Starting point is 01:59:53 Like, some of them, I think, even for the craziest Kanye hypebeasts, they're going to be like, whoa. The ones that have, like, those, like, claws on the side, whatever. And then Ultraboost, like, the Ultraboost 19s, I think, are, like, those kind of fell flat. So, like, so what's the move then? the Ultra Boost 19s, I think are like, those kind of fell flat. So what's the move then? And NMDs, I actually liked NMDs, not comfortability wise,
Starting point is 02:00:11 but just looks wise, better than Ultra Boost. I feel like they leaned into Ultra Boost and kind of almost like forgot about NMDs. And so now what's the move? Like they've got a couple basketball, you know, a couple sponsorships, but nothing major.
Starting point is 02:00:22 Yeah. I feel like it's just Kanye. I feel like they fucked up the Ultra Boost heavy because they did way too many colorways. That's always a problem is they do but nothing major. Yeah. And like, it's just Kanye. I feel like they fucked up the Ultraboost heavy cause they did way too many colorways. That's always a problem is they do way too many colorways. It's kind of what's happening with Yeezy. It's like doing so many, so many,
Starting point is 02:00:33 so many. It's like, all right, I get, I mean, look, he said his goal was to get everybody, make sure everybody has Yeezy.
Starting point is 02:00:39 So I respect that. And I, and I respect like, they were obnoxiously rare, like hard to get, you know, it's like, these aren't, these aren't that great. They're just, there's only like 200 in obnoxiously rare, like hard to get. It's like these aren't that great. There's only like 200 in existence.
Starting point is 02:00:49 So like I think it's cool to – because Nike can do it on a Black Friday release. They'll put out like two million pairs. And it's like, yeah, you're going to see other people wearing them, but that's okay. You can't get in the world if other people have your shoe. But yeah, they kind of – I think they went almost too far in the other direction with the amount of them and colorways and all that shit because i thought the 4d shit was dope like i still actually like the four the 4d ones like i like that bottom and um our manager has a pair of those and i those were so impossible again like why did you not evolutionize the ultra boost to that that would have been cool like i think that's their problem
Starting point is 02:01:22 is they have some good ideas but they don't fully get behind them, and it just kind of fizzles out. I love the Dames. They did a collab with Bait that I loved and I thought was a sick basketball shoe, but there was nothing on it, and they didn't do anything about it, and then the Dame just kind of fizzles out. They don't really get behind what could be a good idea. The 4D is like, that's awesome. I feel like they just wait for Kanye. What's next? Tell me. don't really get behind like what could be a good idea like the 4d is like that's awesome i feel
Starting point is 02:01:45 like they just wait for kanye you know what's next yeah like tell me yeah i wonder and i i think i'm 34 you guys are 30 i feel like that plays into it too it's like you know jordan is an icon we remember the shoes growing up you went with t-max but like you remember all the jordan drops and all the other nike drops so to me like nike is sneakers you know it's like and adidas has done a great job of grabbing some of the market share maybe they've been a little bit like more quote-unquote cooler or whatever but like at the end of the day to me but i wonder if i if i was growing up now if i was coming of age now and i was into kanye if like the yeezy would be the 11s for me and it definitely could you know what know what I mean? Because right now there's such a heavy nostalgia play with Nike.
Starting point is 02:02:28 Adidas can't do that yet because they just haven't been around long enough. I mean, I guess the day if they ever retro the Turtle Doves, forget about it. People go crazy for that. But until you have the longevity to be able to do that, you're kind of, in my mind, you have to prove that you're not just a flash in the pan yeah because in a way it's just tied to one dude it's gonna be so different for like the younger kids because like for us it's like the only place
Starting point is 02:02:52 to get shoes was like footlocker you know as a kid east bay yeah it's like kind of crazy like now there's so many avenues like they can legitimately make any sneaker like their yeah go to are gonna be exposed to so many more sneakers? Like I was exposed to like what was in the mall in Salem, New Hampshire. And yeah, maybe it's expensive on the secondary market or whatever, but you can get them. You know, a birthday gift or your dad's rich or whatever it is. You know, it used to just be wherever you walk in, whatever's on the fucking wall and that's it. Yeah, that's like your choice.
Starting point is 02:03:22 And if they don't have your size, then you have to get something else so you can go to school right i remember one christmas i wanted the penny twos and my mom got me the taxi 12s the jordan 12s black and white the original ones and like i was just like so disappointed i was so upset now i'm looking back i actually i want the taxi 12 so bad but the point was that it was like whatever mom's getting me is like what you're going to get. And now it's like whatever I can trade on Grailed or I can buy on StockX or whatever it may be. So your Nike guys through and through. Let's say you ever get like the Travis Scott treatment, which I think is kind of weird, by the way. I feel like he is anointed like the next one
Starting point is 02:04:06 and it's like everything he puts out is going to be oh my god have you seen them and it's like i don't know why him i don't know what the difference is he's kind of getting like the kanye treatment from from nike um like i like the cactus jacks they're fine but they're not you know i just i can't get down turn this side yeah i can't get down with the brown like the brown yeah colorway yeah and he's leaning into that big time so yeah if you're not you're not down with the brown colorway. He's leaning into that big time. You're not down with that. You're not going to be down with any of them. Let's say you get that treatment though one day from Nike or something.
Starting point is 02:04:34 What kind of sneaker would you – obviously not down to the literal design, but high top, low top, basketball sneakers, skateboard sneaker, what would you go with? I would do right now a slim high top.'m i would do right now do a slim high top like i just like the silhouette of doing like a slim high top i feel like there's it's even with jordan's like jordan ones like i i like jordan ones and i have i have a couple pairs but like they're just a little like balkier than i would like to be i'm a skinny dude so like yeah yeah yeah yeah like some sometimes i can't wear them with certain – I don't like wearing them with certain pants. So like for me, it would be like a slim high top.
Starting point is 02:05:08 I think like minimal colors. Like I love white shoes. Like it would be very like subtle. Yeah, a subtle shoe. Minimalist type of look. Yeah, and I would go high top and slim as well. I'm a size 13, so if I go a little crazy on the size of a shoe, it looks like I got bigger.
Starting point is 02:05:28 Yeah, I feel you on that. We got a guy here who he wears like a size and a half smaller. He crams his feet in there because he's like, they look huge otherwise. I'm like, dude, that's a curse right there. For real. Some of the sneakers just don't look good that big. Right. I feel you.
Starting point is 02:05:40 They don't show you that size when it's warped and stretched out. So, yeah. And I've always been a high top guy, like, yeah. In basketball, too, is I always rock high. I don't understand how people rock low tops playing basketball. It's crazy to me. It makes no sense. I have no ankles. And I need that now.
Starting point is 02:06:01 Get up there, man. All right, boys. I appreciate it.
