dosing we're here the shark episode it's good to see everybody's face in person it's uh me big t avery
mad dog in the studio billy from an undisclosed location billy's chiming in um we're going to play a game
called Where in the World is
Billy Football. It's funny
because on part of my take yesterday, you chose
to go with like the Matt Lauer reference
as opposed to like Carmen
San Diego is right there.
You probably should have no idea who that is.
Who's Carmen San Diego? You don't know who
Carmen San Diego is? No idea.
Does anybody on the show know who Carmen San Diego?
I know the name, but I don't know what it is.
Boomer?
Isn't it like where in the world is Carmen San Diego?
Shut the fuck up, Billy. I'm not a boomer.
I'm a boomer.
I'm a millennial, okay?
And just so you know, if a real boomer was in the room right now,
he would see no difference between you and I.
He would probably call you a millennial too.
I think a millennial is just code for somebody that's younger than you that you don't like.
Okay, boom.
Shut the fuck up, Billy.
So we're going to try to figure out where Billy is.
Where in the world is Billy football?
Oh, yeah.
Okay, I'll give you a tip.
Why do you have a fake background?
now because earlier we got a meeting and you didn't have a fake background because I was in an alley
because it's complicated I was in an alleyway and people started coming and it wasn't conducive
for filming okay so it sounds a little complicated because you're doing a podcast from an alleyway
for some reason you got to be a reason for that well I realized that on zoom I can cover up the
background so I'm in a better place so mentally or
just physically
both so you're not
in this country from what I've been told
okay two
hints I needed a passport to go there
okay you could just say yes I'm not in this country
I need a passport to go there
and I am not in the EU
England
yeah that just means you're in England
I'm not in England
you're in the city of London
no I'm not in the city of London
Is he in Wales and he's saying it?
They also don't speak languages that are my first language.
Oh.
So it's English.
So it could be English.
Italy?
You speak Billy.
Italy's in the EU.
Wait, so he said he needed a passport to get there.
And it's not in the EU.
He's in Canada.
Are you in Montreal?
Nope.
I don't think Billy would say not in the EU if he wasn't in Europe.
Right.
You know, he's in Europe.
You're in Andorra, bitch.
how the fuck did you know that are you yeah yeah yeah let's go let's go i can smell the and dorian
on you man what the fuck is and dora and dora i've always wanted to go because what the fuck
is and dora you're you're in the pyrenees you're up in the mountains i'm pyrenean dude
it's it's uh i'm doing this thing so like about two months ago i got a cheap ass uh transatlantic
flight way before I knew what the hell we were doing. I just knew that this would be a
remote work week. So I got that transatlantic ticket. Yeah, about that, about knowing that this
would be a remote work week. When did you figure that out? I'm just curious. I'm here. Big Cat
told me. Big Cat told me, apparently. So I hopped on that. So, Billy, please don't lie.
I swear to God, asked Big Cat. He was like, we got these two weeks off. It was two months
ago having a discussion with him about something pertinent he will remember
okay please don't lie though because like the thing about
I am in no position I am in no position like it's been playing for a long time I know
it has I know it has I just didn't know that you were leaving the country and so I was just
surprised by that because so I also work on part of my take and I'm here he just goes
to you today he's like why aren't you in Jersey yeah I thought I was like I thought
everyone was just going to be out of town and i'm just the most out of town yeah you are you're out
of many towns you win the award for it most out of town no actually uh this it's actually this place
is really cool because it was created as a country to make sure so uh uh king charlemagne uh shout out steely
dan was like hey uh we don't want the moors to come invade the holy roman
empire so we're just can create a country to be like a decoy like a first line defense to fight off
the moors and that's and dora and it is ruled as a principality with two princes and the two
princes are uh macron and a catalonian bishop who is like a barcelonian bishop you know the song
two princes right is it about and dora no yeah it is probably if you want to leave
your job
then go ahead now
Billy is on
the vacation
just go ahead now
you know that song
no
okay
so enjoy your time
in Andora
seems like an interesting place
I'm actually not mad
but you also
could have done a little bit more
prep ahead of time
to be like hey just so you know
I'm going to be out of the country
because I'm still here
still here
I will look
I mean I knew I was totally ready
just to be like up at 2 a.m.
and just ready to work whenever,
just making sure I had good internet connection.
So, I mean, I think we're going to get, I,
so I take buses at night.
I take buses at night instead of paying for hotel rooms.
So if you take a bus at night, that's too banged out.
That's your travel and your stay for the night, just banged out.
I might write a blog on the best way to just, like, bum it.
Billy, why would you need to get up at 2 a.m.?
It's later where you are.
Yeah, so, like, we were recording at 8.30 for a part of my takeout.
I was going to be up at 2 a.m.
Oh, I see.
But we weren't.
We were recording early in the afternoon.
But you would have.
I know.
I would have.
You would have.
On Thursday, if we're up at 8.3 p.m., I will be up at 2 a.m.
I mean.
All right.
So very cool.
Aaron is not here today.
Arian had a last minute family emergency that popped up.
So we hope he's doing okay.
Hope his family's all right.
Hope to see him again on, on Wednesday.
have him on nano dosing for Thursday coming out.
But we'll just roll with the crew that we have right here today.
We might be joined by a special guest.
And I didn't know that Billy was going to be out of the office until I found out just earlier that he would be out.
So what I did was I tried to book a special last minute guest that I know that Philly's going to be super pissed off if he's not here to see.
So we'll see if that guy can come through for a little bit.
Also, I have a couple more irons in the fire on future guests.
I think you guys are going to be really excited about.
I've been going back and forth with a few folks, and let's just leave it at that.
Can you tell us right now and bleep it out?
Yeah, yeah, let's bleep it out.
Why do women love true crime so much?
I'm not a big true crime person to be real.
Like, I know who crime junkie is because they're one of the biggest podcasts on planet Earth.
Yeah.
I'm not, my roommate's obsessed with true crime.
Because I was watching a video a couple nights ago, and it was a woman that was like sitting in her bedroom with like her dog on the bed behind her.
and she was like going through this the grisly gory details of a double murder and she was like smiling and like making it kind of sexy she was like and then he walked in with the knife she's like excited to be talking about like and then he used her face as a bowling ball yeah and it's like this is really like fucking gross like somebody actually died and this woman is like mentally excited about it so i don't so oh billy there's some science behind this
And I'm sure there is.
What kind of are we talking about real science or billy science?
No, no.
I'm going to pull up the exact science.
So I do not get accused of being sexist.
Yeah, my roommate, like, falls asleep to true crime podcasts and, like, plays them while she's making dinner.
I'll come home and, like, Ted Bundy videos are on.
Mm-hmm.
I get scared.
I get freaked out and scared that someone's going to break in, especially because I live in a ground floor apartment.
And so I'm like, oh, that could happen to me.
I like watching some of the interrogation videos.
Some of those are really interesting because it shows like the technique that the police used to try to manipulate people.
That's not like explaining how Ted Bundy caught his victims.
No, it's not.
Right.
That's different.
Sorry, I was going to say, and then next week we have Colin O'Brady coming in.
Yeah, who is that?
He's like an insane triathlete.
He's the first ever person to conquer the 50 highest peaks in every state.
in the United States.
And his new book,
The 12-hour walk is like number one bestseller.
So I think he'll be really good.
Perfect.
We can figure out a topic for that.
Very cool.
Yeah.
All right, Billy, what's your science?
So there is a condition called hybristophilia
that exists to explain those who are sexually aroused
by the object of their affections wrongdoing.
so this explains a lot of people who like are pen pals with murderers and who adore serial killers
yeah like girls should get obsessed with serial killers okay yeah because in the evolutionary
hypothesis is that dangerous males were more likely to survive back in primal times so those
dangerous males as a female it was a evolutionary task
to try to be involved with them sexually than to not be because then they would not be
impacted by those males' violent tendencies.
Now, does this trick?
So with that, usually those males would be in social circles with the females and not, you know,
like, for example, like famous people didn't exist.
But now that famous people exist to kill people, those long-loss evolutionary traits come out in certain women when it comes to serial killers.
So it's like keep your friends closer, enemies closer type thing?
Yeah.
Like if you're, you know, involved with the serial killer, the serial killer won't kill you.
Interesting.
Which might not be the same, but they're, this is like a.
light version of that of women listening to murderers.
I was to say, or like a lot of girls who get like the whole, oh, he's nice to me,
but he's mean to everyone else.
That's like obviously a heightened situation.
Is this why like straight up, I'll admit it, me and KB have a thing for Casey Anthony a little bit?
Yeah.
Is it the flip version of that?
Yeah.
Maybe.
Where it's like she's so crazy and she's such a bizarre, insane liar that it's like a little
bit attractive. She's like the worst news ever. Obviously. I mean, she killed her kid.
Yeah. But the fact that she just lies about everything. She can't, she can't talk and not lie at
the same time. There's just something fascinating about that to me. I'm curious how about Casey Anthony,
come on the pod. Oh my God. That episode would do numbers. It would do numbers. Yeah. Official invitation,
Casey Anthony, come on the pod. I just want to talk. I just, I want to hear what kind of crazy shit you'll
say. What do you think she's like doing? Like on a day to day,
basis now. She's freed, right? Like, I mean, she got away with it. Yeah. Huh. Last I heard she was,
she like got kicked out of a bar, which I mean, the hits keep coming that story. Yeah. But like she can't
nobody's hiring Casey Anthony. I would I would hire her. She recently opened a private investigation
firm in South Florida. You're kidding. Yep. That's what she was up to. Uh, yeah, Casey became a legal
investigator for Pat McKenna,
investigator who worked on Anthony's case.
I would hire her to be
on this podcast.
Hmm. Actually, that would
whoa. Yeah, whoa.
Think of the numbers
it would do.
Science fair. Science fair with Casey Anthony.
This is how you make chloroform.
Stop.
She killed her daughter, right?
Yeah. Allegedly. Allegedly.
Allegedly. Blinking sign that says allegedly.
And is she the one who your parents helped her out?
And there was like a trunk of a car involved with D&S?
Her mom ended up calling the cops because she hadn't seen her granddaughter in like three weeks or something like that.
And she was in the car and she said, this car smells like there's a dead body in it.
And then her dad helped cover it up too.
And then at the very last second when they found like the body and saw the duct tape and stuff on it, Casey blamed her dad and said that her dad molested her when she was a kid.
and her dad was like, what the fuck?
Like, it seemed like it came.
I was trying to, yeah.
She'll just lie about anything and everything.
So I'd just like to, I'd like to have a conversation with her.
Come on the pod, Casey.
Dude, how much would it suck if you were helping your daughter cover up a murder?
And then she just threw you under the bus.
And you're like, oh, my God.
Yeah, be like, listen, I helped you cover up a murder of your own child, but I'm not a child.
Be grateful.
Yeah.
Be grateful for what I did for you.
Every man has his limits.
I'd be just very interested to talk to her.
I'm interested in talking to anybody that's like a compulsive liar.
I'm also fascinated with just lie detector tests in general.
And if they're actually ever accurate,
or if that's just something that a police officer will tell you.
Because I feel like they're not accurate at all.
It's only accurate on people who don't know how to control their heart rate.
So that's everybody.
No, but like they're like people who are very in tune with meditation.
and slowing down their heart are able to like basically jinks them do you think you could
pass a lie detector test honestly i think that would be great video yeah it would be yes because i definitely
cannot you you would but i'd like to try i guarantee you can't like billy's face turns bright red when he
lies yeah you can't control your your physical reactions to it but i don't think i don't think anyone can't
I feel like even innocent people when they take lie detector test,
there's no real upside for it other than to show the cop that you're not afraid to take the test.
Like imagine how nervous you'd be if you were, if you hadn't committed a crime,
say something like murder, like it's that serious, you're innocent.
And then they put you on a lie detector test asking about it.
Like you're going to be nervous.
Like your heart rate's going to be going all over the place.
So nervous.
There's more false positives than false negatives.
Yeah.
So I was watching this.
I was watching a true crime thing over the weekend.
Yeah, so maybe it's not just chicks that are into it.
But it was a video about the murder, this guy named Chris Watts.
Do you know who he is?
Oh, this story.
It's the craziest, one of the craziest stories of all the time.
Yeah, him and Shanan.
So Chris ended up murdering his wife and his two daughters.
And his wife was, she posted everything online because she was like an influencer, like
multi-level marketer.
She was a Facebook mom.
She was a Facebook mom.
And so she left like a long digital trail of like videos of her and her family.
and her husband ended up having an affair with the lady and then he killed her and then he he was like the worst liar of all time the news came to his house and his whole family was missing he was like yeah you know like if they're out there and they're like not safe like i just want to be safe you know so uh shenan if you can see this like come back you know and it was everybody knew that this guy was lying the entire time but then he took a he took a lie detector test and just absolutely bombed it
and it was like he's the worst liar and got got immediately caught but i was thinking to myself
if i ever found myself in a position like that where i was innocent i would be getting so mad
at the police for wasting their time talking to me when there's like some monster out there that
has my family and he was just like sitting back like trying to think of his answers and stuff
it's like this dude is the most most guilty person so i guess it's not just women that like true
crime but it is a little bit different when you see somebody getting like real sexy with their
description of like a grisly double murder or they make it like asmr they're like hey guys welcome
back to crime junkie yeah today we're talking about ted putting she poured gasoline down her children's
throats and let it on fire it's like she this is fucking creepy this is weird you should not be
excited to talk about this stuff some people get into it some people Nancy grace gets really into it too
but she gets into it where she gets so mad
that she gets turned on.
That's Nancy Grace's thing.
She'd be like,
Casey Anthony took her daughter
and she tied her up in the trunk of the car.
And you can tell her she fucking loves talking about.
I think she talked about Casey Anthony
every night for like two years.
Her whole show was dedicated to Casey Anthony.
The Nancy Grace character in Gone Girl is very good.
Have you seen that movie?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, that's fascinating.
Big T, do you think you could pass a lie detector?
test?
I really don't know.
Like, I've never,
I think so.
I think you could too.
But I've never done it, so I don't really know.
But I, if, yeah, I don't, it feels like something that you'd be so in your own head to be like,
okay, you need to stay calm.
You need to do this.
Like, that it would backfire.
And then you would fuck up.
But I think that's you.
I think you got ice water running through those veins.
You're iced tea.
That's true.
I think you could pull it off.
I don't think Avery could.
I know Mad Dog couldn't.
I know Billy couldn't.
I don't think I could.
Arian, maybe.
I don't know.
I don't think Arian could either.
Well, it has nothing to do.
It has nothing to do with like outward expression.
It has to do with meditation and control it.
Because that's what it tracks.
It tracks your heart rate and your heartbeat and your heart rate variation.
So the only people who were able to truly do it,
or there's another trick that I saw Mythbusters where to,
set the baseline to ruin the baseline, you put a tack in your pocket. And every time you tell a
truth, you stab yourself with the tack so that your truth baseline is elevated with an adrenal
response. Yeah, it also tracks heart rate and respiratory function too, I think, like you're
breathing. But yeah, I've seen that too, Billy. I also, one of my favorite shows like 10 years ago,
15 years ago, was Penn and Teller's bullshit.
Did you guys ever watch that show?
It's a fantastic show.
I think it was on Cinemax or Showtime, one of those channels.
I went to see them one time.
They're hilarious.
They're very funny.
Yeah, super talented.
And they would just take on a different topic each week and explain why it was bullshit.
And I think they did one on the lie detector test.
And they said, I think they had an expert on there that said kind of what Billy's
talking about to throw off the baseline.
When you're telling the truth, you just pucker up your butthole real quick.
And doing that, it's the same response as fear.
So if you puck, everyone out there listening, pucker up your butthole right now, you're scared.
Same as being scared.
And so then when you tell the truth, you pucker up.
And when you tell a lie, you don't.
And they said that that was able to throw it off.
But still, I feel like I would not be able to keep my cool in a situation like that if I was actually lying.
I actually think that if I was totally innocent and I was taking lie detector test, I'm pretty sure I would feel that too.
because I just get nervous
and they try to make you feel guilty
about everything
totally unrelated
but we got to address
Ivana Trump
okay
this sounds like one topic that I want to let
Billy Cook on
sounds like you put a lot of thought into it
didn't you guys mention her on the Trump episode
now she's dead we did we killed Ivana Trump
through the podcast
it's getting bad through the macadosis
it's impossible to ignore now
Yeah, we've killed John Madden.
Young Dolph, John Madden.
Oh, yeah, Young Dolph.
Yeah, Young Dolph was the first one.
It's kind of getting scary.
Yeah, there's more, too.
I just can't think of them right now.
Do you have any thoughts on John Madden?
RIP.
I mean, I feel terrible that we...
There's a ton of, there's a crazy amount of deaths.
Tony Serico, Ray Leota.
Yeah.
Yeah, we did talk about Ray Leota.
So, Billy, what's your, what are your thoughts on Ivana?
I mean, falling down the stairs for a woman who isn't, who died directly because of the end, I don't know.
Were there any owl feathers nearby?
I mean, put, like, falling down the stairs and dying, I, like, feel like more often than not.
it's it's you know someone pushed them down okay like there's so many cases like think about how many people
you know who fall down the stairs and died like numbers wise like actually i'm gonna whip out a shark fact
okay because i was thinking i was you just asked me to think of all the people that i know that have
fallen down the stairs and die and i think it's zero well you don't know them but like you hear about
them like there like two of my Peterson's wives yeah well no his wife and then the other woman
i forget how they were related the she was uh the neighbor that he was a
Allegedly having an affair with.
Okay.
Yeah.
In Germany or wherever.
And then there was that, there was another true crime case where a guy pushed his wife
down the stairs, but then she didn't, she didn't die.
And that was a problem.
So he, like, hit her over the head until she did die.
I mean, that's, that's probably got to be the worst.
Yeah, that's pretty bad.
It's a bad way to go out.
I mean, stairs, stairs are, so stairs.
So sharks, I mean, here's quick, quick teaser on some shark facts.
sharks right bite people definitely right yeah that's ingrained in the conscience that sharks bite people
and that's like number probably some of the number one biters and you know pop culture right
yeah i'd say sharks are definitely up there i'd see what are some other big biters snakes
Mike Tyson yeah snake staff i think snakes are bigger biters than sharks are bears seals
Yeah, but they're from arrested development.
Pit bulls.
Shark bite is shark, shark, let's go to Google.
I'm just going to go.
Batts.
Ooh, bats.
Bats are really big bitters when it comes to like popular culture.
Let's look at this.
26 million results for shark bite on Google.
Now, let's go dog bite.
307 million results.
Okay.
So we got dogs.
Dogs above sharks.
This experiment isn't going as well as I thought.
I know what you're saying, though.
People talk about shark bites.
It is a thing.
Yeah.
I think if you look up shark attack, you would see more hits for shark attack than shark bites.
True.
But so hippos, deer, and cows are more deadly than sharks.
Hippos will fuck you up.
This is the craziest.
well hippos are
I mean honestly I know that hippos are the most
dangerous land mammal on earth
and probably most dangerous mammal
on earth
but
it's Jen Pop doesn't know that
Billy's looking
down on you with his superior facts
right now
no but you're more likely to get bitten
by a New York City
person just a person in New York City
than you are sharp
Big T agrees
oh that's absolutely true
there are more bites in New York City per capita than there are shark attacks in the world.
That's why I don't mess with the ocean. I tempt fate every day walking out on the street.
I don't need to add any additional, you know, anything to that.
Yeah, people, so people talk a lot more about shark bites. It's not as big a problem as we make it out to be.
But Billy's right. I actually, I texted Billy the other week because I was, I was having a debate with somebody and I needed an animal expert.
So I said, there's not an animal on earth that could beat up a hippo, right?
Hi, hippo is number one.
Yeah, 100%.
Maybe elephants, elephants.
Maybe a charging bull elephant, maybe.
Yeah, sometimes bull elephants and musks beat up in musk, which is a whole different level.
That's like berserker elephants.
They're like so horned up.
They have like literal testosterone leaking out of their ears in this black.
tar substance and it's called musk
and they go must actually
and they go so hard that
they kill bull
black rhinos like giant
black rhinos and but I don't think
they've ever messed with hippos. Let me go to
my safari videos.com
which has some of the best database
um
elephant
versus hippo
hippos
are nasty I don't think
like I don't think any predator on earth
could mess with
the hippo.
Elephants just from a weight class perspective.
Oh, they go hard.
Okay, so rhinos pussy out when they're encountering elephants, but hippos fight back.
That's some boss hog shit.
Yeah, it is some boss hog shit.
The Romans say what you want about them.
They did a lot of fucked up stuff.
But the idea of having these animals fight each other, I know it's technically not cool,
but on the other hand, it's very cool.
I mean, I, like, if I make the Coliseum, I, the atmosphere at the Coliseum is probably one of the greatest sporting events ever.
Like, the crowd at the Coliseum, like, think about it.
Like, it was probably the roar of the crowd at the Coliseum probably puts any football game, any sporting venue today to absolute shame.
Yeah, I would say it's like LSU Night Game might be up there.
maybe
maybe when the Steelers play Renegade
do you think they had a band that was in the Coliseum
that was like playing their equivalent
the Roman equivalent of Renegade
to get people fucking hyped up for the bear
against like the tiger
just imagine whatever was happening
at Michael Vick's compound
times the size of the Coliseum
yeah that was the crowd
that was the crowd
man that does sound like it would be
an intense atmosphere you think they definitely
sold beer, right? They had no wine, you know, they had a wine guy walking up and down the
stairs with like a bag of Franzia. Oh yeah, they had bags, literal bags. They were probably
guts of pigs and stuff, but they were bags of wine. They were bladders of wine. They were
slapping the bladders. Yeah. The Coliseum only held 50,000 people. That's, that's weak.
Yeah, it's not big, but I think that would be 13th in the SEC. I think Vandy has 45 and everybody else
is like 70 plus
it just means more
that is facts
I guess it'd be 14th
because Fandy would slide down to 15
it sat
it sat that many people
but there was hell of people
in the stadium
because it was just open to everybody
they didn't take tickets
yeah standing room only
probably had a large crowd
like an observation
all right let's be generous
and call it 75
well they've probably also
had like an outdoor area
where the people that couldn't get in
you'd have some dude in a robe
standing up just like
just telling them what was happening
inside.
75,000 people show up to a Tennessee game. They're like, wow, look how empty the
stadium is. Yeah, that's true. The Coliseum, I'm calling out the Coliseum. I think it wasn't
that great. You're saying that Rome was a bad sports town. Yeah. Well, I mean, they may have
sold out their stadium and that's great, but like your stadium is weak. Yeah. Yeah, they're like
Buffalo. Buffalo's never won anything. Was it was it designed though? Does it have like the
the Seattle features to
keep the sound in. So like it seems
louder down on the playing field. Did they have a
decibel meter back then? For sure. It was just
a guy like standing
with his arm pointing once it got like loud.
This says 50,000 at its
maximum capacity. I bet people were
fucked up in the crowd. Like absolutely
torn up. Oh,
you imagine. Gamble. Yeah, you're going to like a
lion fight. Is anybody
in the crowd sober? No. Like even the kids
are fucked up for this. Oh, the kids are so
fuck though and also uh the craziest thing was at the the events like the first they used to gamble on
it there was there's tons of records of people gambling during the coliseum fights and i like if i could go
back in time i would go to the coliseum and watch what the hell was going on there because you know how
like it must have been ridiculous and if if this world goes a shit and there's an apocalyptic
scenario and civilization crashes and like we're in this like mad max scenario like
I'm setting up a civilization
just to import all the zoo animals
and create a new colosseum.
Because there's no rules.
There's no rules
and the people will be happy
if there's games.
I just thought of Mincy
taking the Barstool Sportsbook
to the Coliseum.
Oh man,
we're going to put out
some tremendous content.
It's going to be incredible.
Milk.
Man, I love gladiators.
Mitzie in a robe in a tunic would be such a good look
Maybe like maybe like an olive
Like olive branch crown that he's wearing around
There's definitely a picture of Mincey in a robe
A hundred percent from college
Do you have any Toga pictures from college
This is he's actually going to pop up and be like
Oh, yeah, this is me, LSU, Ole Miss, 87,
King of the Coliseum.
What would the promo code be?
Bacchus, baby, Bacchus.
Yeah, promo code Bacchus.
Oh, my God.
Roman swapsed.
We're here to.
Oh, my God.
We may need to send him to Rome.
Yeah, I think so.
Oh, my God, I would love that.
I would love.
Billy's right. We need a Coliseum.
Yeah.
We could even do it virtual reality now. I know it wouldn't be the same.
But I'd still like to, I'd like to understand what it was like to be in that environment.
Because Big T, yeah, it might not have been the biggest crowd, but I feel like it's definitely the drunkest crowd.
Well, now we can build one of good scale and quality.
Yeah. Yeah, we can build a giant one.
Yeah. We'll have 150,000 seed Coliseum.
Like in Bristol? This has a Bristol race track.
Yeah. Hell, just convert Bristol.
Yeah.
It's the biggest thing I've ever seen.
Take that and make it the Coliseum.
What's the-
They literally, they used to flood the Coliseum and have sea battles.
They're like, yo, just having a bunch of dudes fight each other isn't enough.
We're going to recreate naval warfare in a stadium.
Have we done anything that cool in the modern era?
Would they put, would they put like cannons on the ships?
they would do Roman naval warfare
they would fill up the Coliseum
with you know 10 or 15 feet of water
get real big ass boats in there and make them fight
that seems incredibly dangerous for the spectators
I mean
who even like that's insane
yeah I'm obsessed with the Coliseum
I wish I wish Aaron was here he was actually at
medieval times I don't know if you guys saw that
I wish he was here because he was like
there were videos of him like fighting
with the swords and he got his ass kicked
really arian was fighting
what with his not like in the
in the show but like outside with his kids
yeah they just kicked his ass
dude medieval times is so much fun
it's the best it really is
I feel bad for people that don't like medieval times
I've never been you got oh you would love it
you have to be able to turn that part of your brain off
that makes you think too hard about anything
and you just they assign you or knight to root for
So like there's a black and white night
There's a green night there's a red night
And depending on what section you're in they're like
Okay you're cheering for the red night tonight
And before you know it you're like fuck yeah
I'm red night till I die
Yeah like the green night's a bitch
I fucking hate the green night
It just it washes over you
And then they serve you like a giant ass turkey leg
There's some stew that comes out
All the medieval stuff like a Pepsi
You get flagons of ale
Yeah it's incredible
Dinner and a show man
all right we need to
jousting
jousting's low key mid
well I don't think it's
low key mid I think it's like real
jousting
like jousting like where someone
would get a sword through their face
no it's a it's a lance meet a wood
and it's mid compared
to gladiator battles
wait no no no no real jousting
was they had like a sword and they'd chop your head off
no real jousting was with wood and poles
most of the
jousters would die from splinters
They wouldn't die from the impact
Of getting hit with a wooden rod
And falling off a horse
Yeah because the rod would always splinter and shatter
It was more of the
I mean in real
In real warfare
They would just lance each other with like a spear
But jousting was
That was there like play things
And it would just be a wooden
A wooden pole basically
though but
oh that's lame
yeah
kind of mid
nowhere close to gladiator battles
I mean they are coming fast enough
that like it would still fuck you up
but
it would fuck yeah no I mean
oh 100% would fuck you up
but like if we're talking when there was basically
no rules and they're doing jousting
like come on
yeah
come on
all right now you just got me thinking about
the animal fights in the Colise
and just imagine the atmosphere.
Let's do some matchups.
I would want to organize hippo,
large, gigantic polar bear.
I think that's the only thing that could match a hippo.
What's the temperature?
Besides an elephant.
That's going to make a big difference.
Like the polar bears, they're built for playoff weather.
The hippos, like, I feel like if it's 20 degrees outside,
the hippos, you might get fucked up.
They're a dome team.
Yeah, I was just going to say,
We have to go to Green Bay in January.
We might even have to go further.
Like, are we going to put a retractable roof on the Coliseum on the new Coliseum?
No, I think you have to play in the elements.
Okay.
It's all about nature.
It's like Lambeau.
Yeah.
I think every football and baseball stadium built in America now should have a retractable roof.
Yeah.
That's such a Southern take.
That is such a Southern take.
That's a big Kurt Warner take.
That's like a, that might reignite Civil War Southern take right there.
You are against Snow football?
Yeah.
If the Civil War was played inside, the South might have won.
Who wants to?
You want to go sit out in 11 degrees and a foot of snow
and make the game like as sloppy as possible
where it just completely randomizes the winner?
It's kind of fun.
That's what's cool about football.
That's where upsets happen.
That's when grit comes out.
And you get to see something that you've never seen before.
So we went up to that Buffalo game where the wind was going like 50 miles an hour
in warmups.
And kickers couldn't make an extra point because the ball was just getting knocked down.
Yeah, also, note, I did not say every stadium.
I said everyone that's getting built.
So all the new ones?
Yes.
But then eventually, if you're spending $1.5 billion on a stadium anyway, put a roof on it.
I disagree.
Baseball and football.
I like that take big tea.
I disagree.
I like the, I like the, I like the, I like the, I like the, I love the randomness of weather when it comes to sports.
It's fun.
It's fun.
like watching a big 10 game when it's cold as shit outside all the linemen aren't wearing sleeves
because they're pretending that they're not cool all of this will still exist no but then every
there will have to be a new stadium for every team built eventually so you're just you're slowly
getting rid of it i'll half retract that i think baseball is a bad take baseball stadiums are like
built different than football stadiums like football stadiums like the usually like a
specific oval whereas like baseball stadiums not always the same shape and you'd
You got the skyline in the background.
Yeah, I mean, there's plenty of different roofs at baseball stadiums.
I don't know.
I think I like the look of baseball stadiums without roofs.
It is sick when you see a ball hit into the night sky.
Yeah.
And you see like the white ball.
That's just kind of cool.
Also, wind in baseball, that plays a big, big difference.
Again, they are retractable.
You can leave it open.
But you wouldn't if there was any sort of inclement weather, if you had the retractable roof.
That's the point, yes.
I don't know
I like the idea of having open air
stadiums I really do
especially in football when it's raining
dude snow football
you realize what you're doing right now
you're canceling snow football
fine
no that's not fine
snow football is the fucking
also again no I'm not
all the places that it snows
like Lambo is not getting torn down
anytime soon
I'm just saying man
be careful what you wish for
because if every game
is played in a dome
then every game looks like an Atlanta Falcons game, and nobody wants that.
Now, that's true.
Yeah.
It just breeds lazy football.
Agreed.
That's what it is.
Execution and perfectionism becomes the level of the Atlanta Falcons.
Like having the team that just won the Super Bowl plays in the dome.
Yeah, but having a little bit of randomness is good, I think.
It makes you, it forces your coaches to be more creative.
It forces players to be more creative.
I mean, LaShawn McCoy.
was a great running back, but if it wasn't for his snow games, he would be just known as a
great running back. Instead, he's known as like the all-time snow guy, which is a very cool
thing to have. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. That will still exist. All I said was if you're
building a new stadium and you're spending that much money on it, put a roof on it so that
if it's 110 degrees playing baseball, you can close it, or if it's raining, or if it's
snowing playing football, you can close it.
I think we keep the Coliseum open air.
I think we have to.
We have to make the elements be a part of this.
That's fine.
Well, actually, now that I'm thinking about it, it never snowed in Rome back then.
Are you sure about that?
You check the weather reports?
I mean, there was never a heavy snow.
There was volcano ash.
Great point.
Okay, so the river, the river Tiber only froze in four years during a,
ancient road 398 to 396 271 in 177 all bc okay but you probably still had some occasional
snow some flurries just didn't get cold enough to freeze entire river yeah i mean how about that
dude in pompey you know um if you go take a tour of pompey they show you all people that are
covered up with ashes and they're frozen in time there's one guy that's just jacking off and they
they're like check this guy
out. He was jacking off when the volcano
happened. And so he's just frozen time
with his hand on his dick. It's very fun.
Pompeii
huge. It was like
Solomon Gumora. There was tons of
there's tons of pornographic ruins
in Pompeii. Yeah. They had like
huge orgies back in the day.
Yeah. If you go to the baths, it was just people
fucking everywhere. Like open.
Yeah. It was like, I'm going to go to the bath.
People treated going to orgies like
they treat shaving. It was like, okay,
before work today I'm going to stop by the bath
fill up my holes
then they get
blow off some Steve yeah then I got an important meeting
but everybody look up that picture
of the jacking off guy
in Pompeii it's very funny
feel bad yeah it's actually
it's actually featured
there's tons of the Pompeii stuff featured
in my tourist falls and volcano
blog on barstoresports.com
if you want to check it out tons of visuals
of all the crazy stuff in Pompeii
all right
low plug
I like curated a good amount of those photos
if you're really looking for
that guy was just finishing
yeah he's got like a tissue in one hand
I the thing is he probably wasn't
he probably was like
there's probably rigor mortis from the burning
it could just like ah
it could be that
or it could just be a natural human reaction
if you're getting covered in fire like protect your balls
like grab your balls
it's like when somebody's shooting a
soccer ball at you your hands go down there might be the same thing the thing is about all those
dudes is i think they died of obnoxious gases before the the all the dust covered them like
the carbon monoxide yeah because all the carbon monoxide came out of the volcano and since carbon
monoxide is dead i might be right but one of the not gases that kills you is uh denser than air
so when it came out of the volcano it went on the you know on the land under the air and there was like a good like five feet or like seven feet of whatever the toxic gas was like gas all of them basically and since that trickled out uh it just came in in a wave and there's no air and they couldn't get out
probably a pretty bad way to go out i would say um so yeah
So people were killed initially by falling debris,
houses collapsing,
and then the city was hit by a particularly gassy pyroclastic surge,
which was responsible with the greatest number of fatalities.
So if you didn't get hit by boulders and stuff from the blow,
you're killed by the gassy pyroclastic surge.
Gastrope, that sounds like somebody puked on you.
Yeah.
Choking on someone else's vomit.
All right.
Mother Nature's Farts.
All right.
Well, that does it with our Roman talk for the week.
I'm very interested to know if anybody has any insight as to what the crowd looked like.
They never did the wave.
Never.
They're a good sports town.
Well, maybe they've filled it up with water.
Big T.
What are you teed off about this week?
I know you got something.
I sure do.
I don't remember where I saw this.
I think it was a TikTok.
It was a TikTok.
It was some, your classic.
Gen X kid, you know what he looks like,
saying, you know, if they had just taught us about
how to do taxes in school and this, that, and the other,
and shit that mattered instead of what,
then maybe like our economy wouldn't be crumbling and I wouldn't have,
just blaming all of his problems on the world.
And first of all,
if you don't know how to log into TurboTax
and put in your information and how,
have them do it for you, you have much bigger problems than what they taught you in school.
You probably weren't paying much attention to begin with.
I never thought I'd see Big T taking the side of the IRS.
Well, it's theft, but the point stands that if you shouldn't complain about how difficult
it is.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
It's, well, kind of, but like if you can't figure out how to do that, your problems don't end
there.
Like, you probably could have, you weren't the, the, the, the, the,
straight-day student. Okay, so I know what you're saying. If you have a standard W-2,
taxes should not be that complicated. But if you're a freelancer and you work for
yourself, maybe, or if you own your own business. This guy didn't own a business.
If you're a TikToker, if you're a TikToker and you have all this money being paid out,
I mean, taxes get complicated when you're not just getting a W-9.
Are you saying this, W-2? Are you saying this because the state of West Virginia took all
your money? It's not as easy
as you think, Big Tee. The only people who really know
how to do taxes are
those
not the tax consultants, but what are they called?
You do people's taxes and like
CPAs? Yeah, CPAs are the only people in America who actually
know how to do tax. You don't have to know the ins and outs
of the tax code to log into TurboTax.
Right, but TurboTax also
doesn't, won't do as much as a CPA will do. And a CPA is literally the
only people in the country who actually know how to do taxes and take advantage of everything to
make sure that you had a whole litany of other things that he was complaining about too that was just
the one that stuck out to me also i'm sure this isn't the place everywhere the state that i went to high
school and you had to take a personal finance class to graduate high school oh not us definitely not
us tennessee had you like balance a checkbook yeah you did all sorts of stuff it was a lot of
dave ramsie videos dave ramsie scared me for a while it's why i still don't have a credit card
Um, I think that's a good idea, though.
I do think that that school should teach you real applicable stuff.
What specific things do you think that school should teach you that they don't?
It's a good question.
Um, I don't know.
Do you think there are, I mean, I don't think like a public high school is necessarily the place that should like, impart wisdom of life upon you.
Like, oh my God.
Are you kidding me, Vixie?
what what's the point of education well like there are things that you need to learn in a school
and there are things that you can and should learn elsewhere like i don't think a public high school
is the place that should like teach you anything philosophy well sure no you can do that
that's like an educational subject but billy i'm saying you go to school to do things that are
to do with school and then you can learn other things elsewhere it's not like the end all
be all what was the point of school what's the point of school to prepare you for the real world
i mean i think there is various writings on the origin of what school is to be and it's to become a
better member of society and i think that was one of the greatest uh i think when they were
lobbying for universal schooling for children especially in america i remember reading about it in
england because it was in a horrible history book but there was so many
vagrant children running around who weren't in school who are on the streets, committing
crimes, and that they weren't then becoming productive members of society.
And like the reason they made sure everyone went to school and developed a public school
system was to ensure that people were productive members of society and were able to
contribute and function in a society with tools they learned in school.
Well, so then the onus is on you to tell me what things should be taught in school.
I think anything that helps someone become a better functioning member of society.
I mean, I think that's actually more of a conservative ideal for to like to like I think
what I'm arguing for is way more Republican that children should be trying to become productive
members of society and fall into conform.
I mean, yeah, I'm not.
I don't disagree with you.
I'm just saying like, okay, you're taking away time for math.
What are you teaching instead?
Well, you're not taking away time from math, per se.
Like, for example, personal finances and taxes all have math applied to it.
And if you do building blocks of math and then end up getting into something that deals with complex math, percentages, returns, deductions that all involve simple arithmetic division percentages.
I mean, I don't think that's taking away from that.
That's in school some places.
So what's something that's not in school that?
I'm curious to know how mandatory government education is a conservative idea.
Yeah, public schools shouldn't exist.
I'll get that take off right now.
You don't think they should exist at all?
No.
Why?
Why don't believe like the federal government should really exist, so.
Okay.
So let's take that out a little bit further.
If there's no government-run schools, where do people go to school?
school. You can have private schools. You can educate your own children. How do you pay? If you don't
have a job that makes you wealthy, how would you pay for your children to go to school? I don't know.
So if you're poor, your kids are fucked. Would that come with reduced taxes?
Yeah, sure. We'll make the people that are earning $22,000 a year pay like 4% taxes.
They still can't afford to send their kids to school. I just don't.
You have to have school.
I feel like I'm in,
am I the only one that.
No,
I don't think that's a big lib take on my part.
I don't know that you do really.
That's a awful.
Kids should go to school.
Put that on a quote card.
PFT says kids should go to school and then big T says fuck them kids.
Yeah.
Okay.
I mean,
school sucks.
Don't get me wrong kids.
Like I fucking hate school.
It sucks.
It's not fun.
But you should go.
You need.
Sometimes things aren't fun.
Like you've got to do things.
You know what's crazy?
Isn't it crazy that words, letters, writing is just you see symbols and it causes you
to hallucinate sounds and images in your head.
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
Now we're talking.
Let's get into it.
Mad dog.
I just think about reading.
Yeah, no, that's exactly really.
If you look at Chinese characters and they are little pieces of art, but those tiny little
pieces of art, mean words to them that they're just, mean words to them.
they then hear in their brain, and then they verbalize.
I don't think we should let Big T off that easy by getting onto the hallucinogenics that are words.
I think we should stay on this for a second.
I think in this case, this is one of those instances where I think even Big T knows that he's full of shit, where school should exist.
Public school shouldn't exist.
Well, then how do kids go to school?
Educate your own children.
Well, okay.
But you have to work.
So let's go with that.
So Big T, let's say that a family is not able to afford to send their kids at school.
so they stay at home every weekday
and they teach their kids
now they have even less money
so now they can't feed their kids
now they're going to have the smartest kid in the world
that doesn't have any rice
that dies of starvation
they have more money because they're not paying taxes
I don't know I haven't fleshed this out fully
so they've got 2% more money
of their $22,000
so they've got
they've got an extra like
they've got an extra like $700 a year
no big team you know what's going to happen
child labor is going to come back
that's that's what happens it's child labor
yeah that's
that's what happens that's when children don't go
school their parents who cannot afford to
send them the school end up
I don't think I don't think
we should prohibit any group of people in this
country who wants to work from working
okay so what about
what about police stations
Big T should they not exist
there should be a well that wouldn't be
covered by the
there should well the role of government should be to
protect its people so yeah the military and police
should exist.
Fire departments?
Yeah, that's protecting people.
That's fine.
But then making sure that kids learn things, that's not protecting its people.
I don't think that falls under the purview of the government.
Wouldn't you say that it's better to have an educated population than a completely uneducated
population?
Yes, but that doesn't mean that you should have to pay for it.
You just want hordes of dumb poor people running around.
That's exactly what I want.
That's not what I want.
I think you need to consider the ramifications have not.
educating poor people. Why is an educated population good? A population that is better educated
has less unemployment, reduced dependence on public assistance programs, and greater tax revenue.
Well, that's proven to be completely false. What? No, it's not. It's, Big T, the more educated you are,
the less likely you are to need assistance. Yeah, on an individual basis, but on the whole,
that's also, that doesn't. Also, the more educated you are, the less likely you are to have unwanted
children that then will grow up to be poor and uneducated because there are no schools for
them then they'll have a million kids you realize that like what you're describing right now
is the very difference between developing countries and developed countries you're not wrong
I know because school has a lot to do listen I don't want to be in the place of defending school
because school was I didn't like school I just did enough to get a diploma no new taxes but you're you see
the benefit of school. How could you have high school football and then college football? Good point.
And then pro football if school didn't exist. The NFL would suck. Well, public school wouldn't exist. There would still be plenty of schools.
Would would poor people get like a voucher to go to private schools in your? From who? The government.
Like the city government, like the local government. So in big I don't know. You could maybe like that's what happened in Ohio.
Like the private schools would have, they would have like official donors that would serve as talent scouts that would go to super poor communities and be like, this kid is fast.
So I will pay for him to get an education at my school because he's so fast.
And then you are literally describing how collegiate athletics.
I know in a way that I am.
But at the same time, there's still a certain base level of education that you get for free up to 12th grade.
And then if you want to go to college, then a lot of that dynamic.
does come into play, where they're like, okay, we're going to give this person an opportunity
because they're athletically gifted.
And the guys that aren't are the girls that aren't, well, tough shit for you, you're not
going to be able to afford to go to college.
PFT is just having the college recruiting process start in kindergarten.
Yeah, well, that's what Big T is advocating for.
And you're just, yeah.
And I'm saying, I think, I think six-year-old should learn how to read.
Hot take from PFT today.
I think that, it's going to be like, yeah, it's a good thing for society.
if 90% plus of her population understands how to read.
It's like Frank.
I didn't say get rid of school.
No, but you do understand that means getting rid of school for a large majority of the United States.
We could maybe work something out like you said.
Like it doesn't have to be prohibitively expensive to go to a private school, but school shouldn't be run by the government as well.
So how do you keep it from being prohibitively expensive, Big T?
I don't know. I'm not in the government.
Oh, my God.
But Big Cian, you know what's going to happen?
I'm an idea guy.
You know what's going to happen?
You're going to have like Mick, Mick School, McDonald's school.
And McDonald's is going to just start training children to work in McDonald's.
And yeah, Amazon school.
And these kids are just going to get educated by corporations who are going to be like, we could have to seriously.
Well, luckily those corporations aren't influencing the government at all right now who's currently educating the children.
I don't think Jeff Bezos is like forcing kids to learn how great Amazon is.
Yeah, they're not like using...
You don't think they're developing contracts with school districts
to put Amazon tablets and shit in schools
so that kids grow up seeing the Amazon logo everywhere.
No, I think that that's definitely...
There's some truth to that for sure.
Like, you get contracts with local governments
and then your brand expands.
I think that's definitely true,
but that's also very different than having Jeff Bezos
run schools and he's just training his drone army of children
to grow up to learn how to use that.
forklift for his warehouses.
That's not what would happen.
But, I mean, I feel like Amazon's more chasing government contract money with putting
their stuff in schools.
I like the idea of mixed school, though.
It sounds like a great school.
It's just Ronald McDonald being like, hey kids.
You know, there is a big hamburger.
There is a place called Hamburger University.
It's in Chicago.
And I think it's also, it's international now.
So I'm pretty sure there's one in Tokyo.
Tokyo might be one in London.
There was one in Moscow.
They shut down the one in Moscow after the war started, unfortunately.
But Hamburger University, you have to work for McDonald's, I think, and then you apply
to get into Hamburger University.
And if they let you in, it's like a leadership training thing.
And you're almost guaranteed to be a very successful franchise owner for McDonald's and
like move up in the corporate structure if you attend and graduate from Hamburger University.
and here's a fun fact about Hamburger You
their acceptance rate is more exclusive than Harvard
No fucking way
Yeah it's harder to get into Hamburg University
than is to get into Harvard
Check it out
That might be inflated like they make every manager
Hamburger University
It's less than 1% of Apple
1% get in
Less than 1% get in
Oh my God
That was only a Shanghai, Shanghai's Hamburger University.
I would love to go to Hamburger University just for a day.
Just let me audit a class at Hamburger You.
Does anybody let you sit in?
Yeah, I want to sit in on the secret sauce class.
Like, here's how you, here's how you pipe up a Big Mac.
Well, there's a guy in TikTok now who's like showing how to make it.
He used to work at McDonald's.
Oh, he's spilling the sauce?
He's spilling the sauce.
What is it?
I feel like it's Thousand Island dressing with a little bit extra mayo.
I didn't watch the video exactly,
but there's a guy he was like their executive chef or whatever.
He's spilling the beans.
Wow.
He's going to get sued or get killed.
Ronald's going to choke him out.
That'd be a great true crime episode.
Listen, y'all are shitting on me.
There's some think pieces on this.
On Eliminate Schools?
From the Atlantic.
Notably.
The Atlantic also has conservative writers.
Not many.
Not many.
Is that Jemel Hill?
Yeah.
No, that's athletic.
No, no, no.
She works for the Atlantic.
Oh, yeah, I always get them confused.
I don't know.
I'm just, I'm just fleshing some things out.
There are things, you can find a think piece about anything online.
Anything.
There are no new thoughts.
I'm trying to think of what the last new thoughts somebody has ever expressed was.
Our word hallucinations.
Yeah, that was a new thought.
All right, so back into that.
Oh, wait, wait, maybe you guys hate poor people.
Public school increases the cost of housing.
Cities create zoning restrictions to prevent low-cost housing in order to ensure no one
can pay less in property taxes than the cost of their children's education. This exacerbates
housing shortages and prevents innovation like tiny homes that could allow lower cost housing.
So you're in favor of tiny homes. I have no idea. I'm in favor of the rent being too
damn high. That's what I'm in favor of. It is too damn high right now. So yeah, maybe maybe I'm the
bad guy for thinking that poor kids should learn how to do math. Another common big T win. Yeah.
Damn. I've been outflanked by
Big Tea once again.
Don't you hate it when that happens?
I do. I very much do. So that's really, that was teed off. Big T's teed off about kids.
Also, they get free lunch at school. That's important. A lot of these kids don't get meals otherwise.
Chocolate milk. Chocolate milk. Did you guys ever have milk bags?
No. Oh, I've seen that.
Yeah, for a hot second, they tried to convince us that we should be drinking our milk out of bags.
So it's been a thing up in Canada for a long time. And Mexico.
They tried to introduce it to the United States back in, I'd say 95, 96, sometime around there.
And it's these little pouches, these little plastic pouches of milk.
And they shipped them to our schools and they made us watch instructional videos on how to drink milk out of the bag.
Milk bag is just another term for tits.
Yeah.
They felt like tits.
Yeah.
You know, they look like Elon Musk with his shirt off.
Yeah.
That picture is insane.
So you have to hold up this pouch of milk.
and you put pressure on it
so the plastic wrapping gets real tight
and then you take a pointy straw
and you just jam it through real quick
and they told us
in the instructional video whatever you do
don't blow them up with air after you're done drinking
and then pop them and we're like
okay well obviously we're going to do that
thank you for the good idea
and we had them for
I don't know maybe like a month
and then the schools just gave up they're like these suck
kids are just spilling milk everywhere
this is a bad idea
we're not at the high level
of hand-eye coordination that the Canadians are. So they sent us back to the cartons.
Milk spills were tough in middle school because you would get like the brown paper that they
would use to clean up and it just wouldn't do anything. You know what I'm talking about?
Yeah. A bathroom toilet paper. Didn't do it. Yeah. Awful. Not the least absorbent material.
It's government paper. Yeah. They buy the cheapest shit. So you think it'd be better if it was just
all private and some kids would have no paper and then other kids would have just.
just like silk handkerchief.
I don't think schools would go away.
No one's saying that.
We're saying that people who can't access private education would no longer be able to.
Private education would look drastically different.
Right.
So are you saying like corporations would pop up that are that would start like preschools?
No, I'm saying people with all this money they now have that they aren't spending in taxes
could educate their children more effectively and in a way that they see fit.
I don't think you're understanding how much less money they'd have.
Like it's not just individuals
Like
Everyone would pay less in taxes
Yeah you pay less in church
Wouldn't that cause inflation big day
That's Catholic school Billy
Everybody has more money at the same time
We have inflation now who cares
I'm just like 15%
You're having some very pro-brandin like takes today
No
No
I don't know
I'm just I'm anti-government
You're just thinking out of
I don't think public schools
Shouldn't exist is more egregious than the federal government
government shouldn't exist. What about a library? You think library should exist? Absolutely not.
Oh, God. Why have people gotten like anti-library recently? It's just a collection of books.
You know, it's so bad about a library. You read it and then you learn new stuff. The internet's
paid by tax dollars in a way, too. How do you think? The library is subsidized by Al Gore.
Okay. I mean, the United States government did have a lot to do with the creation of the internet.
Yeah, I'm sure. Something that massive, the U.S. government would insert themselves into it.
subsidizing the research and development that goes into it. That part's not a lie. It's not Al Gore being
like I invented the internet. Right. But now it's not like, you know, there's no tax dollars in the
preservation of the library or with a librarian. Not to the best of my knowledge. They're just,
they're just like nerds. They're, they're harmless kind nerds for the most part. I didn't say I hate
anyone who works in the library. They're, they're all about the Dewey Decimal system. Yeah. And that's
their true passion. Yeah, they just, they care about having books and then they care about
letting other people read their books. That's, that's all really good people. I don't know why
they were the original admins. The librarians are the original admins. Yeah, it's like a giant
chat room. I've spent way too much time. So the library was the first place I discovered the
internet. That was, like, that was when my brain just got like, like opened my brain and just
dump information into my brain
and that was when I discovered the library
I was like the Beatles smoking weed
for the first time Billy walked into a library
everything I had
I had my New York public library card
with the lion on it and I went in
I could get unlimited internet access
so I could tell my parents who
limited my screen time like yo
I'm going to the library after school
you can pick me up late I'll be in the library
in that library reading and on the internet
at just Googling the craziest shit.
Yeah, I love that.
I love that.
Your parents are probably so proud of you.
They're like, our Billy is a real bookworm.
And Billy's just like on Duck, Duck Go, typing in boobs.
I believe his mom did tell us that he loved books as a kid.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So she thought.
Right.
Yeah, you just love the library.
I was just Googling, who would win?
Billi.
Billy's playing that like.
I still haven't found.
Billy's playing the intergalactic pinball game that came on every single Windows computer.
It's like, Billy, you really had a great day of reading today.
I'm very happy for you.
The library created Billy.
Yeah.
I had the best games on the internet were on mini clip.
And I recently just like stumbled upon the mini clip logo and just hit me with so much nostalgia.
Like, Commando, Club Penguin on the run.
Snow line.
All those flat.
Yeah.
All those flash.
player games that were just wiped from the internet i i think that's a deep state they wanted people
be more productive at work so they got rid of all the flash player games do those not exist anymore
nope i can't play snowline right now is that was it snowline or santa line something like that
yeah santa line like if you if you look out like on the run was one of the best flash player games
ever ffx runner on addicting games it's the same game um oh no fake news i got it oh you got it yeah
a lot of the flash games the original ones aren't around can you play it on a mac there's an ad going
right now but i think it should come up in a second it might not it might be like this isn't supported
anymore addicting games was a great place to kill time though i used to go there during class in high
school i used to play jet slalom oh we're in all right big t let me know how that game goes for
you we'll do i used to go to the library and i would go to like the comic book section but not
comic book comic books it was a collection of comic strips in a book so i would just i would get all
the um bloom county and outland with opus the penguin i would read all those i'd read calvin and hobbs
the far side so we'd just go to the library to just read comic strips all day what are you watching
billy what was that sound yeah it was something billy should not have been pulling billy what was that
I just pulled up Achilles the video game
I'll send it to you guys
but it's entry music's very loud
Okay
All right
Teed off was brought to you by eBay

teed off featuring big tea
fuck school
yeah we want to get this thing sponsored but I don't know if we can
with these teed off takes
no I think listen controversy sells man
all right let's do it
if you want teed off I'll give you teed off
done yeah let's I won't let don't hold ever
don't ever hold back big tea you know I won't
before we get into uh before we get into sharks
there's big big controversy going on in the world of sports
I want to discuss with you guys
because I know that you all are of the
that watched Harry Potter
read the books. I have not.
Huge breaking
news in the Quidditch community.
Oh, I know this.
So the International
Quidditch Association is planning on
changing their name and
U.S. Quidditch and Major
League Quidditch have both
announced their name changes to U.S.
Quad Ball and Major League
Quad Ball
to combat
J.K. Rowling's anti-trans rhetoric.
Tell them, I thank them for their service.
So just to be clear, it's a sport played by wizards on broomsticks that exist entirely inside J.K. Rowling's mind, but they want to distance themselves from J.K. Rowling.
Got to.
So it's no longer called Quidditch.
The fake sport has rebranded.
So they're basically taking it away from like the Harry Potter universe.
Yeah.
But she created it, didn't she?
Yes, it came from her brain.
The same brain that has the takes that are so allegedly problematic that they can no longer be associated with her brain, they're going to continue playing the sport that she created.
That she created in a fake world about wizards and goblets.
I think they should change some rules, too, if they're going to.
I agree.
That's plagiarism.
Got to get rid of the brooms.
I think if you're going to change it, if you're real serious about distancing yourself from J.K. Rowling, you guys say no more brooms.
Yeah.
No more brooms.
Not even a pull.
You're just playing on two feet now.
Also, I think you've got to get rid of the Q name.
I think the Q, the quad to Quidditch, too close.
Yeah, it is too close.
This, I mean, this is just one of those.
It's just, I mean, it's kind of ridiculous.
Yeah, it is.
Is it?
I find it stunning and brave.
I saw the University of Texas Quidditch team one time.
I'm getting on a plane. We were flying back on the same airplane as, I don't know, a bunch of people that were going to Austin from some Quidditch tournament. It was like the NCAA tournament of Quidditch. And they had their brooms on the plane. And they were like stashing their brooms in the overhead compartment. They were all, they were the least athletic sports team that I've ever seen in my life. And they were in the finals. They were like one of the best teams in the country. They were nationally ranked. And they looked like a robotics team. No disrespect to robotics teams, but I feel like.
they would even admit that probably not the most athletic group of people by and large.
But yeah, Quidditch is no longer, we're not going to say the key word on this show anymore.
It's quad ball.
Sorry.
Okay.
Let's get into, let's take a bite out of the real topic of today's show.
Hang on, hang on.
I know Ariens and I hear, we're not going to do Deborah Burke saying the vaccines.
They knew that they sucked.
Oh, well, this is news to me.
Oh, she said that she knew the vaccines.
would not prevent infection, but that, uh, they said it anyway.
Okay. So now we're, now we're believing Deborah Birx.
Well, I mean, generally a retraction, you believe more than the lie previous.
Well, well, her, her retraction is also backed by facts.
All right. So what was her direct quote? Because I haven't seen this at all.
Uh, one second.
Quote, I knew these vaccines were not going to protect against infection. And I
think we overplayed the vaccines, and it made people then worry that it's not going to protect
against severe disease and hospitalization.
Okay.
It will, she continued, but let's be clear, 50% of the people who died from the Omicron
surge were all older and vaccinated.
Okay.
So 50% of the people that died from Omicron were older and vaccinated?
That's what she said.
So that means that 50% of those who died were unvaccinated, which means I don't really see a problem
with calling it a vaccine
and knowing that it protects you against severe illness
especially if you're old?
Because it does.
It's like a preventative thing that you can get
that has been shown to clearly help you survive
if you do catch this.
But as we've said time and time again,
they said you won't get it.
Did anybody actually ever say that you get it?
Yes, many times.
The loopholes that they had.
Because I never thought that it would prevent me
from getting it entirely.
Well, they changed it shortly their afterwards.
when they realized how wrong that was.
They changed the definition on Webster's of what a vaccine was.
It literally like,
this is one of those things that was just bonkers.
So I recall always thinking that there are breakthrough cases.
Well, see,
remember at first it was breakthrough like,
wow,
this wasn't,
this isn't going to happen.
It's a breakthrough infection like they were vaccinated.
And then it became well,
it's not going to protect you from getting it.
Okay,
so the only other thing that will push back on because I agree wholeheartedly
that our public.
health officials did not do a good job handling any of this whatsoever. But by the science,
wasn't there that first vaccine that was created that was created to prevent the first strand
of Delta or the first strand of COVID that we all dealt with in like 2020. So you can't like,
you can't make a vaccine to protect against something that's just now coming out. So when Delta and
So I think in the initial strand of Delta, I feel like the vaccine was more effective
against that than it was in each subsequent wave because the disease and the virus changes.
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know.
I'd say it was tremendously effective to begin with. But yeah, sure. I mean, when it mutates,
it's different. I think it was tremendously effective in preventing you from dying.
Maybe not spreading it. Maybe not from getting the disease.
I'm not sure if it was, I believe Berks said that she thinks a lot of the death numbers were also inflated by as much as 25%, which the Washington Post has also reported.
Okay, so we're trusting Debra Birx and the Washington Post.
Again, you can't have it both ways.
You can't say this is the science.
And then when they're like, oh, actually we were lying.
You can't say, oh, you trust them now?
Yeah.
So I think when it comes to them lying about it, I think that they definitely, like she said, overplayed their hand and did not really discuss the possibility.
of a lot of breakthrough infections happening
and being like,
yo,
this is not going to be 100% coverage.
But they definitely chose to say
this is the magic wand that we have right now.
I want to see everyone who invested
in one of these biotech companies like Pfizer,
like all the public officials who have stakes in those companies
before and after all this happened.
And I think it's going to make people very angry.
Breaking news, the government is in bed with big pharma.
I think everybody knows that.
I know, but how, like, how can you, how can one sort of, in their mind equate that sort of thinking to it being like a thought like the opioid crisis happened?
we found out how terrible like how profit oriented big farmer was and then we just in the same
level just big sweeping push like just all we're just trying it I mean it's just yeah I mean
anyone that's been paying attention for the last 50 years knows that big farm is not not an
industry that is necessarily known for looking out for the best interest of the people.
So, so like, no skepticism?
No, there's definitely skepticism there.
But at the same time, polio, they've solved polio.
Polio is a real vaccine.
Yeah, I know it's a different vaccine.
I know it's a different.
It's a real one.
I know it's different in how it's constructed, but it's still, that's big farmer that
solve that.
So they've done some shitty stuff.
They've done some stuff that helped as well.
yeah but that was like way back when yeah that was before i mean the thing is like the fact
basically for lack of a better term these mrna vaccines were symptom alleviators yeah that like
i'm not gonna go it's like honestly it's like in the past i feel like it was like going into ira
and now we know what we know now and it's like oh well we shouldn't have done that but you said
symptom alleviator, so they've probably saved a shitload of lives from people getting the
vaccines. I'll put it this way. Listen, I don't, I don't trust the government, believe it or not.
I don't trust pig pharmacy companies, but I would be very nervous on a personal level to go hang
out with my parents who are both elderly if I didn't have, or if I knew that they didn't have
the vaccine, right? Is that fair to say?
Like, it's good.
It's good for older people, especially, to be vaccinated so they don't fucking die when they get it.
Right?
Symptom alleviator is good, right?
If you're 70 plus years old with health issues, would you rather get COVID and have the symptom alleliator?
Yeah, you're taking a very small percentage who everyone said, like, yeah, if you're old, you should get the vaccine.
Okay.
We're talking about when they said everyone has to get it because this will prevent you from.
getting COVID. Right. I think that was reproducing. That ended up being a definite lie. Oh, no. She said
they weren't lying. They were, quote, hoping. They were hoping. Okay. Yeah. They weren't lying.
Let's, uh, let's, uh, make sure all the reproducing age, humans on earth get vaccinated,
who are probably totally fine and the children. Well, not definitely don't need it. Not everyone's
totally fine. There's still thousands. Like, statistically, if I get COVID, I'm probably going to be
fine. But also there's, there's a small chance that I'm not. So that, that's, that's, that's,
actually, you can't like completely discount the fact that some young, more able-bodied people
are going to die.
And yeah, I don't think they handled it well at all.
I really don't.
But at the same time, I'm glad that we have it because my parents aren't dead.
I think a lot of people would probably agree with that sentiment.
All right.
Anyways, that's Vax talk with Billy football.
So now this.
Well, I mean, big tea race.
And big tea.
I just thought we should, we should touch on what Deborah Burke's comment is.
Do you agree that the vaccine has made a lot of people's lives a lot better?
The COVID vaccine?
Yeah.
No, I don't.
Well, the fact that they're still alive because of it.
I, yes, there is a very small percentage of the population.
I don't think it's that small.
I don't think there was a tipping point.
I don't think there was that much of a tipping point between those who survived and those who didn't with the vaccine.
Yeah, it absolutely reduced your rate.
of dying. Uh-huh. Yes. Didn't, but look at it look at the now new statistics. Have you seen
them? Yeah. Old people were, their lives were being saved left and right because they had this
vaccine. It helped. But was there true? Yeah, sure. A lot of them did die. Yes, that's true. But if you
look at the breakdown between who died, uh, with the vaccine and the percentage of people that didn't
have the vaccine that died, the percentage of people that didn't have the vaccine that died is way, way
outsized. It is massive
compared to the people that did have it.
Okay, so what percentage of the U.S. population
is above, like, 50 years old?
Above 50. That's a good question. I'm trying
to look it up right now. I'm going to guess
30%. Okay. 25 to
30%. So, let's call it 30%.
So then what about the other 70?
30% of
300 million is still a lot.
Yeah, but we can play that game all day
long. It's 90 million people.
Yeah. There's a lot of people that live here.
Okay, so. Again, I'm not
disagree.
Have more people died from getting the vaccine than have been prevented from dying?
That's not a real argument.
No, but I'm talking about its efficacy, not did people die from it.
I'm trying to understand what your point is.
The point is that the vaccines didn't, for most of the population, didn't really do anything.
They were touted as this will stop COVID.
This will end it.
You will not get it.
You can't.
And even if you do get it on a very small chance, you won't pass.
on anyone else. That's been proven flagrantly untrue. The small percentage of people that
did need to get it and should have, we agree. Like, yeah, if you were old, you should get the COVID
vaccine. What I'm talking about is the government touting that this was the end all, B, all you must get
it in many places trying to actually mandate that. And it turns out, well, they knew in the
beginning that it wasn't really doing anything. They said all that anyway. And then now they're like,
Yeah, well, no harm, no foul.
We just lied, and it wasn't that big of it.
I think that, I think they were hoping for the most part.
They said a lot of things that...
Hope is not a strategy.
I agree, I agree, but they said a lot of things that they were hoping would come true with
the vaccine that did not come true.
I mean, they were going through the entire thing at the same time as we were.
Having hindsight when it comes to a brand new disease is always going to be awesome.
But that's what people said in the beginning.
They're like, we don't know anything about this.
the smallest time frame that a legitimate vaccine has been developed for a novel virus as five years.
Like if you're coming up with, if you say you're going to have a vaccine in the next six months,
like who knows what that's even going to entail?
Yeah.
Listen, right when we, it's not like we talked to Dr. Fauci right when this whole thing was happening.
And he said that exact thing.
He's like, yeah, if we really go warp speed on it, then it's going to be, you know, a couple years.
And Trump got it out there really fast.
And Trump should have taken, he started to take a lot of credit.
for it. But he should have taken more credit because like it's a, I think it's a medical miracle that
they were able to come out with a vaccine that quickly because they had all the government's
focus on it. And it did save millions of lives potentially, maybe not millions, but definitely
hundreds of thousands of American lives were saved by it by having old people have access to
that shot, which ended up, yeah, it's new technology. It's not really a vaccine the way that
we think about it. But as a symptom alleviator, I think it was a net positive, definitely.
don't disagree that old people should get it.
Okay.
I'm talking about everyone else, which is the overwhelming
majority of the country.
Okay. Hey, guys, you know, honestly, the conversation
is like, this conversation, like, it's over.
No, but they're trying to bring it back, brother.
They're, they're going to find a new way to,
they're going to find a new way to trick us into
consuming some, something else that's going to
have an adverse impact that we might not see yet.
I've got bad news for you about milk
Yeah
But there's going to be something else
And corn syrup
Yeah
There's a lot of stuff
There's a ton of stuff out there
Let me ask you this
Also smallpox
We got rid of smallpox too
With the vaccine
That's a real vaccine
That was developed by dead vaccine DNA
Like you know how they used to
Inoculate people for smallpox
Yeah
They used to take pus
From smallpox people
and put it into cuts of other people.
Yeah, so that was...
Now aren't they coming out with a vaccine
that's actually a real vaccine
and not the MRNA thing?
Yeah, I think no NovoVax.
Yeah, so it's different.
It's a more traditional one
that's coming out now.
Do you think it is at all...
I don't look down, by the way,
on people that choose not to get it,
that we work with a couple people
that haven't gotten it.
Like, that's whatever, it's your decision.
Well, so that was my...
But if...
But I think it is,
to say that it doesn't work and that you can pull up statistics from a website that anybody
can log into and write their own adverse reactions to it. That's not medically sound whatsoever.
And then making it seem like it's dangerous to get the shot for people that really do need it.
Well, I didn't do that. I know. I'm just saying like those are the people that I have problems with.
I don't mind if you choose not to get it. That's your choice. Here's my final question on it as a fellow
vaccinated person. Do you think it is at all?
even a tiny little bit, a dangerous precedent to set that the government came out, said information
that it appears they may have known to been false. At the very least, they were dubious of it and
we're like, and we hope this works. And got a large percentage of the population to do what they said.
And not only that, to turn around and vilify people who said, you know what, I'm not sure about that.
I'm not going to do that. And that they now have a case study that they can use the media,
and the population to do kind of anything they want?
Do you think there's one percent of that that could be bad?
I think it's a little bit dangerous.
Yeah, I do.
Because they essentially said,
we're going through an unprecedented time right now.
Everybody's very scared.
They're in a position where they will be,
they're like sucking at our teat trying to get a little bit of good news
just to have somebody tell you it's all over, right?
So for a year,
we were like I want this fucking thing to be over so we can get back to real life and so we were desperate for any good news and then they had a few studies that said this looks promising and then they said okay everybody get this so that we can get the fuck out of the situation that we're in I think a lot of people were desperately hoping that it would become a magic wand and a lot of people attached part of their personalities to like believing in the vaccine a lot of their it was it was their personality to believe in it and there
good things that happen with the vaccine, there are some not good things that happen to the
vaccine. That's just the case. I think by and large it was definitely net positive, but the people
that made their entire personalities rooting for it, it did show that they are easily manipulated into
thinking everything is going to be fine. And by just having somebody tell them, everything's fine now,
and by playing sides and making the vaccine into like this big partisan football that they were
kicking back and forth, it became like one of the other,
It became another player on the team that they're rooting for, you know?
Like, that's how politics is in America right now.
It's like you're either rooting for a Republican team or Democratic team.
And then you've got a bunch of different players on the team.
And, like, Trump was the quarterback of the Republican team.
And it's like, that's our guy.
The vaccines was like that was a speedy wide receiver on the Democratic team.
That's what it became.
That's what the debate came at a certain point.
And it should never been like that, but that's what it was.
So I do think we have common ground that just because a large amount of people,
think that something is going to be a magic cure all, a lot of times that's just them having
happy ears and wanting somebody to tell them you're doing a great job, everything will be okay
because you're a good person. Okay. Then we largely agree on that. Yeah, but also I think a large
percentage of the country, we're not fucking idiots and we see that our parents are getting their lives
saved because they have access to this, which they didn't have before. And so that's, that's a good
thing that we can all agree on. Yeah. I don't disagree that old people should have gotten the
vaccine.
Yeah.
They're not all.
Whether it worked or, well, I don't want to say whether it worked or not, but it didn't
work for everybody.
There, there, but it worked for a lot of people.
It was worth, if you are an old person, it was definitely worth it for you to get it.
Yes.
Agreed.
And Billy agrees.
Yeah.
Billy's like, just inject me with CRISPR technology.
Give me the frog DNA.
That's sweet, but just not anything that a drug company made up.
Billy's getting radicalized overseas right now.
Billy's joining the Parliamentary Revolutionary Guard in Andorra to protect the two princes.
He's going to come back.
Billy, what are the chances, be honest.
What are the chances that you just take a train over to Ukraine?
Well, it would be a bus.
There's no train running there.
There's a, by the way, I don't know.
I'm sort of basically I found the cheapest transatlantic flight about two months ago and I have somewhere to be on Saturday, but I've got a bus pass. So I can go anywhere.
Where do you have to be on Saturday? Why are you being so weird in KG?
Well, Saturday is where I'm leaving. I won't be in Andorra by the time this thing airs.
You're getting out of town?
Yeah, I got a bus pass.
Are you going to the Ukraine? That's my question.
I could.
I don't know.
How many countries are you going to total?
It depends.
It might be five or maybe six.
All right. Spain and Dora, definitely going to have to go through France.
Italy would be my guess, possibly Switzerland, possibly Germany.
and then maybe
Croatia.
How close am I?
Pretty close.
Pretty close.
I know Billy's brain.
All right.
Let's talk fucking sharks,
guys.
Yeah.
Let's get in some fucking sharks.
Shark fact.
Shark fact, number one.
Sharks don't have skeletons.
They've got cartilage.
So they don't have bones.
They don't have bones.
Their teeth are bones.
They got boners.
They do.
Don't they have two dicks?
Yeah.
Sharks have two penises.
How about that?
Actually, I guess
Are teeth in the jaws
Not bones?
No, their teeth are bones
Yeah, but shark jaws are not bones
Parts of their jaws are
But most of its cartilage
That's why
When I think of a shark
What's the greatest of all time shark?
Yeah
I think Megalodon
However
Yeah
You want to go off on Megalodon real quick, Billy
Because I know you know
Megalodon
Big ass shark
Big ass shark
but it might not have been everything that we say that it is
because you can't find a megalodon skeleton
because think about a fish.
This will trip you out.
When a fish dies,
it's in the water and it starts to decompose in the water.
It gets eaten, the currents, the tides push it around.
It goes down to the bottom of the sea.
There's a lot of movement going on down there.
It's almost impossible to find a fish fossil
and especially if their cartilage,
which tends to decay.
So really all they have is megalodon teeth that they can prove megalodon's existence.
And a lot of the different-
And jaws.
Yeah, a lot of the jaws that they put together, there's been a lot of dispute in the scientific community, whether or not that's a legit megaladon.
So I've heard this argument.
And the thing is, there's the whale shark.
Now, the whale shark is a very large shark, the largest fish in the world.
and there is a theory that the Megalodon may have been some sort of whale shark variant
and that's why it was so large.
The thing is whale shark don't have the same type of teeth that Megalodon was sporting.
Megalodon's teeth was very reminiscent of great whites, teeth, bull sharks, and predatory sharks.
So that's where they take all these ascitations with the teeth.
Like it wasn't a filter feeder like a whale shark or whales in general.
So it was a large shark and must have been hunting whales and other types of large animals in the ocean.
But a crazy thing with Megalodon is that there was that fake documentary on Megalodon.
Do you guys have ever watched this?
This was around when fake news was really starting.
Remember I was talking about the mermaid documentary?
Yep.
was, well, they made another one, Megalodon.
Really great watch.
Definitely check it out if you haven't.
It was a fake documentary on basically, like,
imagine you were watching a, you know, Shark Week show,
and then the Shark Week show ended up, like,
there was a Megalodon.
And it was one of the most fascinating documentaries.
But it's caused a huge ruckus because, like,
that was when the Discovery Channel, an animal planet started,
like basically posting fake news.
They saw all the cryptids and stuff
was getting more traction.
So they just started making shit up.
Yeah, that was fucked up that they did that.
Just like when they had Michael Phelps swim against the shark.
That was bullshit.
And then it was a CGI shark.
That was such bullshit.
I canceled my subscription to television when I saw that.
I said TV has let me down.
That's such bullshit.
I didn't like it one bit.
and Shark Week used to be so cool when we were kids
It was like the coolest week of the year
And at that point
That's the boy that cried wolf
The thing about Shark Week is though
It was always the week before the week of going back to school
So it was always kind of a bad reminder
Yeah it was the last hurrah of the summer
Let's go around real quick
And get who was that that just opened the door
Let's go around the room real quick
What are the top sharks out there?
like species of sharks or specific what are your favorite sharks like the best sharks I like I mean gray white's off the table great white is is one one one yeah I'm then going from there to tiger shark uh well hang on let's not let this guy take every shark okay so are we coming up with just billy's shark list are we coming up with the mac I don't know I thought we were going around everybody was giving a shark okay but no I guess we want to just let billy do every shark let's
sorry like I already have no it's not your fault it's not your fault
you love sharks we let him we let him run with it I just thought everybody was
no it's a shark shark draft top three each of us I don't know that
there's enough sharks for that I was going to get one shark there's definitely enough
sharks what's your shark everybody gets two sharks I just want all I like care about is getting
I just wanted the hammerhead shark you have an you have an NBA jam roster of sharks
everybody on this everybody on this podcast does so hammer hammer hammerhead sharks
stop just naming sharks we're doing it we're doing a fucking draft i know but i have something
to say about hammer and sharks okay well then you can say it in due time okay okay we got to figure
out draft order now mad dog what's the draft order can i just choose anything yeah
no it's got to go in a circle around the room though okay so we can keep keep track start with pft
goes clockwise nice mad dog all right i'm taking i'm taking great white shark number one
good pick uh great white shark they have unlimited teeth how about that they've just got like a
revolving door of teeth because they lose so many of them that there's a new one 50 000 50 000
lifetime uh they probably go through estimated that's crazy and their teeth are so sharp
they're serrated so on the side of the tooth if you just rub your finger up and down a great white
shark's tooth uh it'll just cut you it'll slice you right open it's like the shark tooth necklace is
I thought I always had that.
Yeah, shark, those are badass.
Great white shark.
Great white shark number one.
Easy number one pick.
Big T, you're up.
Well, now you've stuck me with a hell of a dilemma because I want hammerhead shark,
but I also know that Billy, because he blew his low too early, wants tiger shark.
So do I, dude, I got another shark.
I got another shark.
He's got sharks on that.
I've got a couple other sharks, too.
I guess since Billy probably does have enough sharks that me taking his number two wouldn't bother him,
so I'm going hammerhead shark.
Okay.
They're funky looking.
Yeah, it's something unique.
It's cool.
Yeah.
Low-key pussies, though.
Why?
So the reason they have a hammerhead is because they use electric.
They have kind of six cents and all sharks have a six cents.
They tap into electrical fields that other small animals generate.
And that's why they had that like, it looks like a.
Oh, sorry, their electric ESP is not cool enough for you.
Yeah, because they only eat crabs in little animals.
They're not big game hunters
So they're not dangerous at all
They're just bottom feeders
I'm sticking with it
I think he's trying to talk me out of hammerhead
So he can jack it
He is
That's exactly what Billy's doing
No I'm not gonna jack it
I have a shark that's gonna blow
All the sharks out of the water
Even the gray white
Can I go?
No you're not up yet
Because I still want to talk
A little bit more about hammerhead sharks
They have a very complex mating rituals
They all like swarm together
Kind of like a Russian bathhouse
And they all just kind of circle each other
once a year. There's one week a year where hammerheads get real horned up. They circle each other.
Then the male just bites the female until she lets him get it in. Very violent. Seems problematic.
It is problematic. I was in the Galapagos back in 2012 and I was on a beach there and there was an
entire marine biology group from the University of North Carolina that was on the beach next to me.
And I heard them just complaining and they're like, oh man, this sucks. Like we got to
get up at 6.30 tomorrow morning because we're going to go snorkeling at the the hammerhead
mating ritual pond and see thousands of hammerheads fucking each other. It's like that's, that seems
like one of the coolest things that you can see is like hundreds of hammerhead sharks
circling around doing their mating dance. That seems like it was something I probably would
complain about too in college being like, I'd just rather not wake up at 630. But at the same time,
It's like, this is a pretty unique thing.
Also, their eyes are on the side of the hammer front, but they don't just see to the side.
They actually, the eyes feel of vision overlaps in the front a little bit so they can see about 180 degrees.
No, that's, they can see also, they see 360 degrees.
Oh, they do?
Yeah, they have 360.
Hammerheads have 360 degree vision.
I guess I read something.
I read it wrong, but that's incredible, being able to see.
each eye can probably see 180 degrees that might be yeah i might have gotten confused on that one so two
eyes that's 360 that's pretty sick that that's sick that would be a great quarterback yeah or point
sharks sharks mate where they're born they always return to the same body of water it's kind of weird
that's it's crazy how that like happens because like what if there's an environmental change or what
if something changes
and that's no longer a viable breeding ground.
Yeah, would they recognize it
or would they still try to mate there?
It's like why, how is that an evolutionary thing?
I guess.
I guess it's because they grew up safe
and they made it to adulthood
after getting born there.
So that's probably if you're playing the numbers game.
True.
It means that maybe their kids would be able to grow up.
And the willy-nilly mate anywhere guys
didn't have the same success and consistency.
Yeah. Consistency is key.
Speaking of the shark orgy,
female sharks can be impregnated
by multiple partners at once.
Oh, wow.
Yeah. So, like,
you could have half brothers and sisters
in the same shark litter.
That would be crazy.
That would be crazy if humans could do that.
Well, I guess humans do,
like we do return to hospitals
to give birth
and we were born in the hospital.
It's kind of the same thing.
the same environment.
But not the same hospital.
Would it be possible for fraternal twins to have two different fathers?
I think it's extremely, extremely rare, but I think that there have been a couple.
Maybe I'm making this up, but I'm pretty sure I've heard that it could be possible.
Can twins have different fathers?
The answer is yes, but only in cases in which they're fraternal.
Yeah, like super rare to have it happen.
One in every 400 sets of fraternal twins have different fathers.
that seems like a very low like that seems more common yeah it does it that sounds 100 that's like
every day yeah miracle twins have different fathers and the dads couldn't be more happier about it
yeah that's kind of cool if you're the dad if of one of them you're like at least i don't have to
take care of both these um all right oh it was a gay it was a gay couple okay okay they mixed it up
okay yeah whoa all right um billy what's your first shark bull shark good choice good choice
billy the most take the rest of the shark right but guess what bull sharks have the highest
testosterone level of any animal on earth even more than an elephant and must yes bull shark's testosterone
levels are believed to be the highest in the animal kingdom with 358 ngms per millimeter one shark tested
even higher than an
American elephant in heat
with 64.4
Gns per militer.
So can you eat Bullshark?
I don't know. Let me check that out.
I feel like there's a giant untapped market
out there for like Bullshark testosterone extract.
Yeah.
I mean, I've definitely
seen ads for that type of stuff.
But Bull sharks
in their aggressive as far.
fuck I think they have the highest bite which shark bites humans the most they do I think it's
bull sharks yeah because they can be found bull sharks can be found in shallow water a lot of
times and they can survive in brackish water so water that's fresh water and salt water occasionally
you'll hear about like a bull shark making its way up a tributary from the ocean and it's like in a
creek or a small stream and there's just this giant fucking nine foot long bull shark biting people
there's definitely a bull shark in Lake Lanier yeah oh yeah probably do you see that boat
that caught on fire yep just the fact that people still go it's crazy stay away from that lake
yeah while we're on that subject we have a shirt coming out says don't swim in Lake Lanier I was
gonna say can we when is that coming out get that word out there's a bunch coming out they got
they have cool like phrases on them and stuff stuff from this show that we've said yeah
it's going to be awesome is there it's it's under the denver airport is that one coming out too yep sweet
space is fake is also on there that's a good one i want that in every color pot Putin created crypto
that's also my that's my other favorite one time is fake we got some good ones people are going to be
excited um avery what's your first shark bull shark's a good pick billy it's crazy as how it hasn't been
picked yet the megaladon that's just i mean that's the alpha that's the number one it fell it had character
concerns. Megladon. Megladon also has serrated teeth, which is why they think it isn't some sort
of scavenger or a filter feeder, but actually attacked its prey. Yeah, I mean, there's nothing
more to it. He's just the biggest ever. But he's low T compared to the bull shark. Durability
concerns, though. Yeah, but I mean, if you're in his area, he runs a show. He's like Shaq. Yeah, yeah, he is.
He's like Shaq.
He is.
People had a lot of concerns about Shaq going into the draft,
but the Meglodon's the most dominant out there.
All right, good pick.
Good pick.
Mad Dog.
I don't know if this counts.
You can tell me if it doesn't,
but all animated sharks from movies.
You have to pick one.
Can I pick the shark from Finding Nemo?
Yeah.
That says fish, our friends, not food.
Oh, Bruce.
Bruce.
Can I pick Bruce?
Okay, you got Bruce.
First overall, good pick.
Our first pick for you.
Are we doing a steak draft?
Yeah, so Mad Dog gets to go twice
Oh shit, okay
Get Vinnie from Shark Tail
I know I was gonna say
Do I just do two animated sharks
I'll do Vinny from Sharktail
I love that movie too
Okay
Good pick
At the car wash
Working at the car wash
Alright Avery your second pick
Second pick is the whale shark
Dude you're just going beef
Beef beef yeah
I'm going all beef hoss
Mike Vrabel just building the biggest possible team
Exactly yeah
I went to the Georgia Aquarian one time
They have the only whale shark
It is sick.
It is awesome.
It's a must see.
So they have the biggest tank in the United States, I think, and they have the only whale shark on exhibit that you can see in the United States.
That's very cool.
It's badass.
And they're really friendly, right?
Very friendly.
So people...
You can swim with them.
Yeah.
There's divers that, like, grab onto their fins and just go for a ride.
Yeah.
They seem like a very chill shark.
Yeah.
What that mouth do.
Yeah.
Oh, God.
Damn.
Suck up shrimp.
It's Nancy Reagan of sharks.
Yep.
I'm going to go with the tiger shark
because they literally eat anything
Okay
All right
Tiger sharks like
They've got cool stripes too
They find the weirdest thing
In tiger sharks' stomachs
Um
So they found old tires,
license plates
uh prosthetic legs
they found
they found
automotive parts
like these guys
literally eat anything
yeah
did everybody else have
it in their textbooks
growing up
can you specifically
remember a page
that had a picture
or an illustration
of things
that they found
in shark stomachs
yes
you know what I'm talking about
right
yes no absolutely
there would be like
gold coins
it looked like a bunch
of treasure
there would be a suit
of armor
that was always there
yes
there was there
it was a blue background of course the shark was on the right hand page and facing to the right
as well yeah and it was a diagram in the top right i distinctly remember that graphic and just
staring at that graphic for a super long time tiger sharks a good pick billy not going to lie like
you got also tiger sharks they'll bite people too they're pretty aggressive yeah yeah highly serrated teeth
very sharp teeth sharper teeth than
great whites
all right big tea
I'm taking left shark
from Super Bowl 49
good pick
thank you I feel like that's a steel in round two
people forget left shark they do
the internet internet was just lit on fire
with just left shark memes
left shark should have started
some sort of business or something I don't know
what he ended up doing yeah
they sell like
a blowups of it so you can dress up for it
like his Halloween still.
Well, I hope, I hope the guy who was in the costume is getting a cut of that.
But yeah, left shark.
Just didn't know his dance moves.
Left shark rocks.
He had his own agenda.
Good pick.
For my second shark, damn, now I don't know what to pick.
It's a conundrum.
You want to easy pick up?
No, I have two.
I have two great pickups that I could do.
I already regret mine.
I'm going to go gummy sharks, the white one specifically.
the white flavored gummy shark was so good it was elite it was so much better tasting than the rest of the sharks
I don't know that I've ever encountered gummy sharks you're talking about the blue and the blue
gelatin with the white there's that one but there's also the white one white one white if you search
white gummy sharks while you're looking that up my honorable mention is shark nato
could pick uh that's the one that was a crazy time arian would have picked that he sent a shark nato
yesterday yeah he did uh my other my other choice i was just thinking maco shark would have been
cool yeah fastest shark i'm pretty sure and so having a great white and maco together
have been like thunder and lightning reggie bush lindale white that would have been a good combination
i think that yeah maco shark was big for me because when i was playing hockey easton came out
with a stick called the maco and it had like shark skin grip on the on the blade that people were like
obsessed with. I love that. I love
that. Maco sharks are just
sleek, man. Yeah. They also
bite humans. I don't think they're not that
big. They don't do that much damage to them.
But they're just very
cool sharks. All right, good draft. Good shark draft.
It's great draft. I've never heard that name before in my life.
You played Polly and Goodfellas? I've never seen Goodfellas.
I've even seen Goodfellas. I don't
like, like, mafia.
What do you like?
He thinks the Italian.
are little still uh stop i don't believe in the mafia i'll get that take off as well what do you
mean go look at go look at hoboken and see why it's so clean and organized and then you'll realize
i don't think the mafia is real so you're saying the mafia the mafia is good in certain respects
they killed kennedy i think they were just paid too i saw something in our
discord that they said George Bush killed JFK.
He had, there were a lot of coincidences about where George H.W. Bush was.
Really? He doesn't remember. We talked about this. He doesn't remember where he was when
Kennedy was shot. He doesn't. George H.W. Bush does not remember where he was.
I feel like even if you don't remember where you were, you got to make some up. And he, there's a lot of
ties between, um, one of Lee Harvey Oswald's best friends and George H.
Bush like they were very close
there's there's a lot
of stuff there he was
wait was W was W the head of CIA
HW
HW HW became the head of the CIA
yes well that makes sense
yeah so it's it's very funny
there's a sign in Quantico
not Quantico like Langley
Virginia where the CIA is located
and it's on a road and says the George
Bush Center for Intelligence
on the side of the road and they had
put up barriers because people would just
always stop on the side of the road to take pictures
of that sign because it's so ridiculous.
Oh, you know what also gave me a little
conspiracy vibes?
George Bush, Yale
baseball player. Yep.
Guess who else is a Yale baseball player who might
be affiliated with some of their underground societies?
Ron DeSantis?
Ron DeSantis.
He got like 340 as senior year. He was a hell of a ball player.
That's pretty good. Yeah, George H. H.W. was the captain.
I think DeSantis was a
also. I saw that he was talking about
in an interview the other guy. Okay, put this one
down in the notes. We're doing an
episode on Skull and Bones.
Yes. On Secret Society.
I actually think I know
somebody. Let's go, Billy.
Do you have a guy? Do you have a guy
who I went to a football camp with
who I have his number.
Okay.
So this is a pre-Billy's-less guy.
We will blur his face out. We will not give his
name will disguise his voice.
I want to find out
all the secrets about skull and bones. I know that
one of the things is you have to like jack off in a coffin.
That's part of the
enshriment ritual.
Yeah, we'll get to the bottom of that.
But let's get back to sharks. Is anybody
here afraid of sharks? Absolutely.
Are you not? I'm not afraid
of sharks. Why the? Oh, you're so cool.
No, I don't want to
I don't want to swim with sharks if there was a shark in the water.
to me, I would freak the fuck out.
So then you're scared of sharks.
I'm not scared of going into the water and thinking that there's going to be a shark there.
That's different.
That's not what that means, though.
I think that is what it means.
I think anybody would freak the fuck out if they saw a shark.
I know exactly what he means.
He's not going to knock on the water because sharks could be in the water.
Are you afraid of guns?
No, I was just fixing to say, that's like saying you, if you go outside, that's different
than having somebody point a gun at you or like the threat that somebody has a gun on the
street. Yeah, no, that's what I'm saying about sharks. Like, I am not afraid of the existence
of sharks. Okay, neither am I. Nobody is. As I sit in this seat, I'm not afraid of a shark
right now. But, like, if I'm in the water actively, I'm like, looking out. I'm never looking
out for sharks in the ocean. If there was a shark next to me, but I know, statistically, it's
almost impossible that I'm definitely old-takes exposing myself right now where it's like I'm
I'm probably going to get hit by a shark this week.
You've seen the track record this show has of saying things and then they come to fruition?
I know.
I know.
I might be jinxing myself, but I'm not afraid of sharks.
I'm not afraid to go in the ocean.
Some people are.
Some people are terrified of giant fish.
I'm afraid of sharks, but I would like to go swimming with sharks in a cage.
If you're,
that doesn't make sense.
You probably already have done swimming with sharks.
They say that in Florida.
If you see those videos, the helicopter footage, in Florida that you're more than likely,
there's a shark swimming 20 feet away
from you. You just can't see it. I don't think
that's true. You know how close
20 feet is? I'm not that
far in the water to be. Or like
100 feet. They come shallow
sometimes. They do. But like
that shallow? I'm like
We haven't had
we haven't had a real good summer of the shark
recently. That used to be a thing that would pop
up every like six years. Isn't that a good
thing? Yeah.
It is. But it also means
that we're due.
We are overdue
It's like the Yellowstone volcano
We're overdue
You're manifesting a shark attack on you right now
Bring it on
I'm not afraid of sharks
PFT's the next sole surfer
I'm a very strong swimmer
And also if you bump a shark on the nose
They get dizzy
You gotta punch it
You gotta punch them in the gills right
That's what you're supposed to do
Attack the gills
Claw the gills
Aren't you supposed to also punch them
Square between the eyes
You can do that too
I'll tell you what
Gives the eyes out
I'm more afraid of jellyfish than I'm spiders I hate jellyfish they suck yeah but you can't
I'm not spiders sharks I meant can you die from a jellyfish sting you can a bad enough one like a bad enough
from a box jellyfish you can from there's a jellyfish in Australia called the iroconji and it's
about the size of your thumbnail so it's tiny and they can swim in between the jellyfish nets
usually so if you get stung by one best case scenario you're going to be just laying down on your
for like five days
and excruciating pain
all over your body
it's best case
worst case you die
almost instantly
so there are certain beaches
in Australia
that they don't allow
anybody to swim in
because they have those
because the Iroconjeer there
yeah
the manna war
which I don't think is
even a jellyfish
I think it's its own thing
the Portuguese manna war
it looks like a jellyfish
but it's just
all these giant
fucking stinging tentacles
and they can kill
like real big fish
shout out
Fuck them.
They're just a lot.
They're just like translucent.
Nobody wants to see them.
Fuck that.
You can pee on yourself if you get stung by a jellyfish.
Or someone could pee on you.
Or someone can pee on you.
No, you want to see that.
I got some more shark facts that I need to get out because I don't want them to get thrown on the rug.
Okay.
Greenland shark is a, there was a Greenland shark found that was the longest living vertebrate ever.
Greenland shark is an Arctic.
The only Arctic shark species lives around Greenland and lived up to 400.
years old.
Longest living vertebrate.
Oh, I like the Greenland shark.
They're ugly, aren't they?
They're ugly as fun.
But it's crazy.
I feel like since they live in such cold waters,
it's like a natural refrigerator preserves preserving them.
I agree.
Yeah, it's like cryogenics, their entire life.
Yeah.
Yeah.
More shark facts.
The goblin shark is one of the oldest species of an animal
that's continuously exists in the fossil record of all time.
Sharks are actually more OG than dinosaurs.
They evolved before dinosaurs.
They've existed after dinosaurs.
They have, they're like, and the goblin shark is one of those sharks that lives deep
under the ocean and very large, but they found fossils or remnants of goblin sharks from
millions of years ago.
The goblin shark is maybe the most.
disgusting-looking animal I've ever seen.
Well, it looks like a goblin.
It does.
It's got a giant nose that comes out of its forehead.
It's been classified as a living fossil.
That's, yeah, that's nuts.
So I'm afraid of this shark.
I'm not afraid of the other ones.
This one I'm terrified of.
It does look like a ghoul.
The whale shark has some of the thickest skin of any animal.
and it's almost considered bulletproof.
They have six inches thick skin.
Wow.
Now I just want to shoot a whale shark.
I want to see what happens.
It is the second thickest in the world.
The sperm whale has skin that measures more than a foot thick.
I've never...
It's tougher.
I've never understood how whaling was a big thing where, you know, if you read Moby Dick,
people used to go out there and just throw harpoons at whales,
and like a tiny little fucked up harpoon would kill the whale.
No, they'd go for the blowhole
And then they'd choke on their own blood
Oh shit
Reminds me one of the best shows ever
Whale Wars with Sea Shepard
Oh yeah
That was my show
Despite all my rage
I'm still chill
That was my first show
The world is a vampire
Six show
Don't shit to change
Oh yeah
Do you guys
Do you guys know about the
The shark summer of 19th
16? No.
This is a big summer for sharks. That was the original summer of the shark. It was 1916 at the Jersey Shore.
So there was this rich family that was taking a train over from Pennsylvania, from Philadelphia.
I think they were the Van Zant family. They were like aristocrats.
And one of the younger males, I think he was in his teens or 20s, he was in the water down, forget the exact town that he was in.
It was like halfway down the shore, and he got his leg bit off by a shark, and they put him on the stretcher, tried to operate on him.
He died of blood loss almost instantly.
And then there were all these scientists across the country being like, yeah, it was probably not even a shark because sharks never attack people.
It wasn't a thing where shark attacks, they weren't known to be a thing because going to the ocean on vacation, swimming in the water, was just becoming something that people did.
It was like more rare back then by far than it is now.
as many people in the water, not as many people would get bit by sharks.
So this guy died.
The news reports came out and they said, yeah, he was attacked by giant fish and died.
Nobody would say that it was a shark.
In fact, the head of the Natural History Museum said that it couldn't be a shark because
we've never seen a shark that's that far north.
The great white sharks only exist down like at the equator.
They would never be at the Jersey Shore, never be up in Massachusetts, Long Island, any of that.
then like two days later this other guy got both of his legs bitten off by a shark about like two miles north
I think of the original one and then right after that this kid was in a stream it was a stream
that was nearby nearby the ocean and a great white shark swam its way up there the same shark
and bit this kid as he was getting out of the water one of the dads jumped in the dad got bit both
the kid and the dad died and then later on that day another kid got bit by a shark i think there
were like five deaths in about 10 days from the very same shark and then that was everywhere in
the news like every newspaper from coast to coast was covering the dangers of sharks in america
and they realized that oh shit you know that old saying like if it bleeds it leads when it comes
to the news industry where people love to read about gore yeah it was it was the biggest news in the
country. And by the way, at this time, World War I was currently breaking out. But everyone's
focus was on how dangerous sharks were because this one fucked up great white shark that was up
in New Jersey. So then the local government and the Coast Guard were all called in because
Woodrow Wilson was the president. And Woodrow Wilson, I think he was the governor of New Jersey for
a while. And he had a bunch of people in his cabinet that were also New Jersey natives. They used to
love going to the shore. So this was like a big thing for them.
So they deputized every fishing boat in America, on the East Coast, at least, to go out and kill as many sharks as you can find.
So not only was every fishing boat actively hunting sharks, they were bringing like guns and stuff into the water to shoot sharks.
Just regular civilians were going out into the water, into the ocean with like pitchforks and stuff, just trying to kill as many fucking sharks as they could because they were terrified that they were going to be next.
And eventually this one guy, I think he was from New York, he caught the shark.
and they cut its belly open and they found like all five pieces of flesh they found an entire
shin bone of one of the dudes who got its leg bitten off and so like okay we got this shark
and it wasn't that big it was like an eight foot shark which is still like it's big but great
whites can get up to probably yeah 18 19 feet but they found that one shark and then after that
there were like no shark attacks for like 30 years in New Jersey but it was it became a
national news store where everybody got terrified of sharks because of this one real bad,
like 10 days span that they had in New Jersey. That's what started people being afraid of sharks
in this country. And then after that, Jaws, obviously, I think Jaws was loosely based off that one
shark. And so that was just like the most fucked up shark of all time. Really ruined it for all
the other sharks out there. Probably got thousands of its buddies killed. Yeah. Because it just went,
it flew too close to the sun
and that's what stopped
the U.S. from entering World War I
in sooner fashion. Yeah.
Yeah, we were fine doing
our Lynn Lease bullshit
because we had enough stuff to worry about back home.
We had a summer of the shark.
I just love how we had like a civilian
shark brigade. Like people just went out
with whatever they could find to go kill sharks.
Yeah, just like wading out into the ocean.
Well, you got a sharp stick?
Yeah, we're going to kill these motherfuckers.
That's sick.
So this story of the USS Indianapolis from World War II
is another one of those horrifying stories.
So sharks can detect a drop of blood.
They can detect blood up to one part per 10 billion
or a drop in an Olympic-sized pool.
So one drop of blood in an Olympic-sized pool,
a shark will be able to smell it.
So what happened was because of this information,
there was the USS Indianapolis was torpedoed by a Japanese
Japanese warship the boat sunk
they were in shark-infested waters
and because of the injuries that the men sustained from the ship
it was one of the first ships to sink
in tropical waters that were you know highly shark-infested
150 U.S. soldiers, U.S. sailors were
eaten alive and killed by sharks in the sinking.
150.
That's wild.
That's an all-time bad day.
You're on a boat, your shit gets sunk.
You go into the water.
That's pretty fucked up already.
That's probably the worst day of your life.
And then there's sharks on top of that.
So many survivors who watched so many of their fellow sailors eaten by sharks
refused to ever go near water again in their life.
Yeah, I don't blame for that.
Like seasoned naval sailors, guys who grew up in the water, love the water.
There was one guy who grew up on Martha's Vineyard, who then moved to Kansas after, I know it's funny, but this is like, Pete, like, you want to talk about PTSD and not recognizing mental health back then, this guy moved to Kansas.
I actually think that's a pretty healthy way to deal with it, though.
Like, you realize I've got this terrible fear of getting eaten by a shark.
So I'm going to go as far away as possible from any shark.
It's a drastic life change.
Like, you could just stay in your town and just not go into the ocean.
But at the same time, he is like he's confronting his fear and managing it.
So they were at sea for four days on life.
boats and those who couldn't fit on life boats were floating in the water.
Oh, my God.
All we heard was men being eaten alive every day, every night.
You'd hear a blood-curdling scream and look and see someone going under.
Harold, who died at the age of 96 in May this year told the sun online in 2019.
In the victim's blood spread through the water, sharks, which can smell blood up to three miles away,
were attracted to the defensive sailors, creating a beating frenzy.
there was 900 boys out there decaying in misery
sharks are going to swim through there
and they're going to attack what's in their road
if I'm flopping around in their road
they're going to take me on there
and they only have to hit you once
these guys heard men being eaten alive
every day every night for four days
oh my god
that's pretty bad
there was that movie that came out
open water do you remember that
to people that go snorkeling
or scuba diving
and they're in a big group
and they get left behind
I think they were on their honeymoon.
And so they miscounted the people that got back on the boat.
And so they just left these two people in the water in the middle of the ocean.
And they had, you know, the apparatus is on where they could float for a long time.
But they were just out there getting beaten by the sun.
And then sharks started to circle them.
And then they eventually died because the sharks just started to bite them.
That would be terrifying.
That'd be a pretty bad way to go.
That's maybe the worst way to die.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's up there.
Just hanging out there.
in the ocean waiting to get eaten?
Yeah, you see that the sharks are about to eat you.
Buried alive is up there.
Yeah.
Fire is pretty bad.
My understanding...
If they're a witch, it's okay.
This could be wrong.
Fire is really bad for like a short period of time,
but then it like burns all your nerve endings off
and then you don't feel anything anymore.
Now, it's excruciating for like a...
however long i don't know and if you're lucky you die of the smoke inhalation faster right yeah
that went viral after that isis video went viral then everyone's like isn't that you know
dying like that isn't that bad it's pretty i think it's terribly bad but oh no 100% that that that's where
that fact came from but if you told me pick that or hang out in the water and wait to get eaten by
sharks i think i'm picking fire i think so so colonel o' brady who we're having on next week he'll be in
the office, he actually got severely burned
in an accident. So you'll be able
to ask him that question. Okay.
Just off the top
of your guys' heads, how many
sharks do you think people kill
per year? That people kill?
Yeah.
15,000.
Sharks? How many people sharks kill?
No way. No, no. How many sharks?
People kill sharks.
Oh, the
shark fin soup is so big
in China. I was going to say like 75.
$75,000
Billy
A million
A million
Avery
Yeah I'm gonna say like a buck 20
Somewhere in that
120,000
Yeah yeah
72 million sharks
What?
We're running up the score on these sharks
Wait there's that many sharks
Yeah we're fucking them up
A year?
A year like sharks should be attacking us
We're declaring war
We're doing a shark holocaust
If you ever heard Anthony
Jiselnix thing about shark party
No
I won't I won't
do his bit, but he talks about how he, on his comedy central show, he would celebrate when
someone got eaten by a shark because we kill so many sharks and they kill like no people.
Yeah.
And he has a, it's very funny.
I mean, he makes a good point.
72 million sharks.
That's so many sharks.
Wait, PFT, I'm reading one that says 100 million sharks.
A hundred million.
They just round it up.
Yeah.
So what, when the Chinese fishermen are trying to make shark soup, they just chop off all the fins and
throw the rest of the body back.
into the water and they just wriggle around with no fins jeez that's so fucked up yeah but then
that attracts more sharks from the blood and then they just they're chum in the water with their
brother you know their other sharks with no fins but they're also able to sneak up on people
a lot more effectively if they don't have the dorsal fin poking out of the water oh yeah they're
dead yeah that's a good point how's that even possible it says for a hundred for every
you 100 million sharks killed per year
about 6 to 8 humans are killed
by sharks every year. Yeah, we're
running up the score on them. That's so scary.
Well, also, it involves like nurse sharks,
smaller sharks.
It's not all great whites.
Right, obviously not all great whites.
But still, that's a lot of sharks for us to be killing.
Good. We're not killing enough.
As long as one roam free, it is not enough.
One is too many.
Yeah. With all that, with all that
blood facts of how much blood they can smell
and find. Sharks prefer to
attack men.
Sucks me, you guys. Have fun.
Sharks are sexes. What if I don't identify
as male? What if I was assigned male at birth
but I don't identify?
Are they transphobic?
And there's not that many instances
of women being attacked
during when they're
most smellable by sharks.
I want to...
Billy say it.
I've said enough
Okay, well
This is a fun step
Because you can
You can look across the board
Men die
I think at a higher
Much higher percentage than women
When it comes to any sort of recreational activity
Yeah, because we're guys are dumb
Because we're stupid as shit
And we usually do have cuts on our body somewhere
From doing something else that's stupid
And so yeah, men definitely find themselves
In an environment with a shark
Way more often than women would
You pride too much
You should just stay out of it
We pry?
Yeah.
I thought we don't listen enough.
No, you pry into situations you don't need to.
Maybe, Big T, maybe we can find some common ground on the trans issue where, it's like if a shark attacks you, that there's no better way to determine what you're, what your sex is.
Well, I want to do some research.
I'm curious to know, do they respect the way people identify?
There's two genders attacked by sharks and not attacked by sharks.
Yeah. Would a shark attack Leah Thomas if it was in the pool with it?
That's a good question.
Leah Thomas could probably out swim a shark.
No, because Michael Phelps got to be.
Oh, I forgot about that.
That was a good shark week episode.
No, it wasn't.
It was not.
It was actually the worst one.
No, I liked it.
It was a fake shark.
It was the fake shark, but I still got to know.
No.
That's a bad take.
Sorry.
Bad take, Mad Dog.
Oh, so you know those shark skin swimsuits that they were wearing your 2018?
Beijing Olympics that they banned.
Yeah.
Designed off
a shark skin.
Yep, that's true.
So shark fin soup,
it's a delicacy.
It's a traditional soup or stewed dish.
It actually sounds delicious.
I want to try it.
So they serve it at important occasions
in China, Taiwan,
Southeast Asia.
So if you're at a wedding or a banquet
or if you're just richest fog,
it sounds like they'll make you some
shark fin soup.
It's said to increase potency.
It's like Ryan
horn, I think.
Yeah, I'm just saying all of those, all that medicine is like literally, it's all just chasing by
Agra.
It is.
So here's what's fucked up about shark fin soup.
The taste of shark fin soup isn't even from the shark fin.
The fin has no taste to it.
It's the broth that they, that they cook it in that gives it the flavor that people like.
It's just being like, yo, I'm eating a shark's fin right now that makes people feel good or it makes it
seem like it's an exclusive dish to have.
Same with the pangolins.
Like everyone, they think that it's like Viagra, but really it's the pangolin scales and
rhino horn is all just made of keratin, which is like fingernail.
So also, it's said that eating too much shark fin soup can actually cause sterility.
So it does the exact opposite of what it's saying that it does.
It also has high levels of mercury.
and BMAA, which is a neurotoxin.
And it can give you degenerative brain diseases such as Alzheimer's and Lou Gehrig's
disease as well as Parkinson's disease.
That sounds like propaganda.
That sounds like Big Shark propaganda.
What about Baby Shark?
Nobody took Baby Shark.
Do do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
Oh, I was looking in the conspiracy, Reddit, because whenever we have a topic, I look for any good ones.
and one of them
it came up was
Baby Shark was a weapon
to dumb down young children
How's that?
Something about the song
was so stupid
that was supposed to make
your baby's brain mush
Let me just taught you
about different
different family members of the shark
My favorite was grandpa shark
that didn't have any teeth anymore
and you do this one with it
Yeah
That was cute
Who was the Nationals player
That had that as his walk-up song
And it was the most annoying shit
Of all time
Parra?
Heraldo Para?
I think it's Parra, yeah, because we used to call him Paras Shark.
Yao Ming is a big anti-Shark Finn guy.
So he campaigned against Shark Fin soup.
Probably got a lot of shit for that.
Thank you for standing up for what's right, Yao.
A 2016 poll from City University of Hong Kong and the Hong Kong Shark Foundation had 75% of local respondents saying they were neutral towards the soup,
Well, 90% of respondents say
they would eat the dish if served to them.
I would, if somebody put shark fin soup in front of me, I would eat it.
How do you guys?
Because you got E-D?
No, because my boners are too strong,
and this could cause sterility.
Bring me back to life.
Bring me back to normalcy.
I don't know.
I don't know if I would be okay with the morals behind it after this episode.
I always try everything once, so yeah, I would have it.
I mean, it's if it's in front of you.
Yeah, of course.
I don't want to be rude.
You also want to say you've had it.
Yeah, and also, I want to respect the shark, and it's dead already.
I don't want to let go to waste.
It'd be worse if they'd just board it up.
I would do it to disrespect the shark.
Fucking shark.
Once of my biggest haters' funeral just to make sure he was dead.
Facts.
So now they serve imitation shark fin soup.
I don't want that.
shark fin soup yeah vegetarian shark fin soup i don't want that no that's soft you've actually probably
already eaten shark how i might have i might have i might have had like a shark steak before
because you can you can buy shark meat like in here yeah you can buy shark meat billy probably
several good places in china town in china town yeah um so because so a lot of sharks end up in haddock
or cod
nets
and when all that gets processed
and put into like a
fillet fish or something
sometimes the sharks end up in there too
so Billy's just saying
like you've had stray shark
throughout the ears
yeah yeah
have you ever had fish sticks
so you're saying fish sticks
have shark in them maybe
maybe
have you ever intentionally
eaten shark Billy
I've intentionally eaten cobra
okay that's good
that's close
yeah
what it tastes like
uh it's heart
that's fucking cool
and it's gallbladder
where'd you do that
um
uh
Chinatown
I can't trust anything you say ever
I don't know Billy's ever been in China town
I don't think he has I don't think he knows how to get there
Billy's a latchkey kid
I don't think you know
I don't think you could get
to Chinatown. I don't think that you'd be able to purchase
shark meat. That's your assignment when you come back.
Just go find shark meat. That'd be cool.
Yeah. No, but ever, but they
ever since I've gotten older, I look more like a cop
and they're like, this guy's definitely a wildlife officer.
Billy, tilt your camera up just a little bit.
Can't even see you. There you are.
Yeah, I would not serve Billy.
I would not. I'd be like, you have to tell me this is entrapment.
Billy, let's talk about your experience on the most dangerous game show.
The most dangerous game show.
Yeah, I mean, honestly, I figured out.
Let me set the table real quick.
Billy participated in yet another challenge here at Barcelona Sports, which he did not win.
In fact, he got eliminated on the very first day.
Yeah, what episode was won the least?
Yeah, correct.
What episode of this show was Billy on when he was there?
couldn't tell us.
April or May.
Yeah.
It was May.
I can look.
He was at an undisclosed location, but that was the show.
Yeah.
It was in, uh, I think it was in, yeah, it was in May.
I, getting eliminated was the worst because I was just in solitary confinement for the
rest of the time and I went nuts.
I was going nuts before.
I was having so much fun until I got eliminated.
You were drunk.
I mean, there were literally, we were being just like fed alcohol.
You had to drink.
You had to get drunk for the time.
How long was it?
from the time you arrived until the time you were off the show.
Was it all in the same day?
No, I was on the show.
I slept one night.
Got it.
It's probably 48 hours.
And why do you think you got eliminated?
Because the snakes manipulated people.
I was an easy target.
And honestly, if you look, I don't watch Survivor, but it's a common tactic.
There's a lot of classic storyline.
that people try to do the producers directors very skilled guys honestly was a greatly produced show
but part of it is manipulating the cast and there's a lot of leading questions and I know what
happened but like for example there were suggestions that are made that like little things that you
think were just like B-roll footage ends up being major like parts of the show it's it's very
crafty how it all went up. So in shocking news, it's everyone else's fault, but Billy that
he got eliminated. No, no, no. I got eliminated because they thought I was the strongest
competitor, but it's so stupid because, actually, that'll spoil everything. They'll spoil,
wait, let me watch my sake, I don't want to spoil anything. But, like, for example,
like Sydney Wells was crying when I was originally voted off. Like, that was something
that happened, but they didn't include any of that.
in the show because it didn't fit like the heel narrative that everyone hated me
and wanted me off but oh no it's weird okay so um so what happened what did what did you do
i didn't scheme i didn't make any alliances i was basically like you know what i'm gonna be
the guy that just has fun uh mess around a little bit uh like have fun camping and then if i uh like don't
connive behind other people's back and like try to like do stuff I was I wore my heart in my sleeve
I just said I think we should vote out Tommy because if we don't vote out Tommy now you know
he's probably going to connive his way into winning and uh I got voted out because Tommy saw
that I said that I wanted to vote him out and he like connives his way into getting me voted out
through bibs what was stressful about the show you just said
off camera that they put you in a high stress environment what did you have to do well when you
first arrived there you have no idea what's going on i didn't know what the rules the game was i was
literally reading the short story most dangerous game and being like we might get hunted this might
literally be like a most dangerous game is a super rich guy just hunts people because they are the
most dangerous game top predator so i thought that we were being told to show up in that we might
get you know paintballed or something i was ready for like fight or flight uh i thought it was
going to be more survival more like naked afraid type stuff like man versus wild and uh i got
there and realized it was more you know just like challenges nothing like actual i don't know
i totally prepared like you know jeff de low was watching it and he interviewed me after and he was
like dilly like you looked like you were in the wrong game show you had no
idea what was going on. And I don't watch Survivor. I don't watch any of these, like, game
shows. So, I mean, I didn't know how to strive toize for it. And I was, yeah, I was having
fun. I probably was having the most fun out of anybody at camp. So what did you have to eat?
They made you eat something gross, right? Yeah, they Bill Gates me and made me, uh, us eat
bugs. It was actually pretty good. Like, comparatively, the protein content of those bugs blended up,
like was up there with way um so i think it was actually like as equal to like a muscle milk
uh it was pretty easy to choke down it was just on the second one they mixed the bugs with
thick water you know that thick water from lowering the bar yeah so if you chug any of that
too fast too much you're going to puke did you puke yeah it's actually a super six
slow mo all right check out billy's super six loom of him puking
Overall, would you say it was a fun time or was it a bad experience?
It was, it was, it was, it got, like, Stanford Prison Experiment type thing.
It caused people to snap.
Okay, well, you can tune into it.
Where can they find it, Billy?
YouTube, Barstall, YouTube.
Check it out, parcel YouTube.
Very excited to watch how that turns out.
It's sad that you didn't win, though.
I thought for sure, this was your, this was going to be your time.
You'll win one of these.
When all those episodes are over, I will give a greater.
input but I don't want to
spoil anything. You will win one of these
I know you're due Billy
yeah I mean after losing
lowering the bar
I feel like Billy would have done
really well on surviving bar stool
like staying in the office
for a week I don't think so
no I don't think so
I don't think Billy is cut out for competitions
I am
I'm extremely competitive
I think Billy I think Billy being in the wilderness
gave him a superiority
complex that him being
in the office would not have.
Maybe. I think
Billy came in, you were too confident.
That would be a sick idea for a game show,
though, if it was Dave hunting people.
Yeah, I mean, that's kind of what I thought was going to happen.
I thought everyone was going to hunt us.
So I was in this, like,
I was like in this mode where I, like,
I thought I was like a feral human.
That was, that was me out there in the woods.
I was like mentally preparing to like, just like,
be an animal in the woods okay but you put yourself into that mindset you realize that
yeah it's like like this type of this exact scenario is why you don't win any competitions
because you prepare yourself for the wrong types of things yeah 100% all right but one day
when it's one of those situations that is extremely uh volatile i will come out on top chaos is ladder
okay so uh billy you know the guy that said that gets killed right who said that
little finger
do you not know what do you not know what that's from yeah okay well it doesn't end well for
the guy who says that yeah but that was the same before he said it no i don't think so
uh it's from game of thrones chaos isn't a pit chaos is a ladder
so billy my suggestion to you next time you find yourself in one of these competitions
in order to not overthink things so much
and maybe chill out a little bit, try some Three Chi.

Three Chi now offers federally legal dispensary grade Delta 9 THC products

to the show.
You guys want to wrap things up with some voicemails?
Show.
Billie, can you do voicemails?
Yeah, yeah.
What's up, y'all?
It's Joe from Atford, Ohio.
shout-out mad dog.
There's got a question about football, specifically,
the teams that you guys associated yourself to a big C, B, and Tennessee,
I felt me very relevant.
But then the commanders were in PFT,
and then the chefs for Billy Football.
So as a Brown fan, I myself, have never once really believed
that we've had a big shot of ever winning anything,
and I kind of still don't.
So with your teams kind of being, you know,
on the same boat
as the Browns.
You're going to shout out back then.
What keeps you going
in your fandom?
I mean,
do you really think
you ever going to win
anything?
Because, again,
as a Brown fan,
I don't.
So,
all right,
let me know.
All right,
he's basically just saying,
hey,
your team sucks.
Sorry.
Why do you root
for this
suck you bunch of socks?
Yeah.
I want to,
I think for college football,
it's very different
than the NFL.
Yeah.
Because the NFL,
like,
there's one thing to win,
it's the Super Bowl.
In college football,
like,
Tennessee,
I expect and I can.
I think Tennessee could have a very good year this year
and lose three, maybe four games.
Tennessee's probably very likely going to lose to Alabama and Georgia.
They could lose to LSU.
But if they beat Florida, who they've beaten once since 2004,
if they beat Kentucky,
if they beat Pitt on the road,
like when all those games go nine and three.
That's a very good season that any Tennessee fan
would be happy with. So I think it's different for college football. Yeah, there are like five
teams in college football where it's national championship or bust. Right. And that would be
Alabama, Georgia, Clemson, Ohio State. That's probably, yeah, they're in their own. Oklahoma maybe,
yeah. No. I feel like Oklahoma has had that mentality. They've gotten to the college football
playoff, but they were never in that category. But I think their fans think that way, where they're like,
well, not anymore. They might not anymore. Or they shouldn't. They do, but they shouldn't. But
Like, yeah, like, college football is very different.
There's five times the amount of teams.
Like, you can have a good season without winning a national title.
There's only been three or four teams to win a national title in the last decade.
Where do you think that falls for Notre Dame fans?
I will tell you.
They still think there.
Are they one of the ones where it's like national championship or bust?
Not necessarily national championship or bust, but they think that they are in that category.
Yeah.
Now, like, if they go to the playoff and win, like, if they got to the national title,
game and lost. I feel like there are a lot of Notre Dame fans who would be like, you know,
whatever. Yeah, they're probably very happy about that. Yeah, but they do still think
they're in that category, absolutely. Yeah. But with the Browns, where do you stand on that?
It's, I mean, it's one of those things where it's like you grow up, it's a nostalgia thing.
Like, you grow up loving, I mean, sure, it's the same for the commanders and like you grow up
loving a team and they suck and they suck a lot. And what am I going to do? Go become a Cowboys fan.
Like, you're, you're kind of, I mean, too late. A lot of people do that.
And those people should go to jail
Right
So like
It's one of those things
Where it's like
Yeah the Browns suck
And they've disappointed me a lot
But it's like
I'm not gonna go become a
Like Yankees Cowboys
You know
Fan just because my team is bad
In a way isn't it
Nice rooting for a shitty team
Because
There's no expectations
Are so low
Yeah
I've said forever
I'm happy if we make the playoffs
That's as good as Super Bowl
I'm happy if we go 500
I've said forever
Being like an Alabama football fan
is not fun
like they could go 13 and 1 and be like that was a shitty season.
Like I've said forever,
I want each of the teams I like to win a championship once.
The Braves have done it.
I can,
the Braves don't have to do anything for the rest of my life as far as I'm concerned.
I would like UT to win a basketball and football and baseball national title.
I'd like the Preds to win.
The Falcons and Hawks,
like I don't even really care that much.
But like I wouldn't want to be a fan of a team that is like,
you either need to win the title or you suck.
Like that's not fun
A Patriots fan
Or like
Yeah
You know that the Hawks
Will never win anything
Oh absolutely
Yeah
I don't care
The Falcons might
If you have a good
If you draft a good quarterback
Yeah
Because the Hawks will never
The NBA is so dependent
Upon free agency now
They're like the Hawks
Will never get
Somebody like that
But in the NFL
Yeah you could draft
I mean they did draft
A very good quarterback
Who should have won one
But yeah
The Falcons could
But yeah, I wouldn't want to be a fan of a team like that.
I also think for the Browns specifically, I mean, I think a lot of people from Cleveland just think that there's a curse or there's something upon like Browns draft picks that they will suck when they're on the Browns and then go have incredible careers somewhere else.
Like that's like I'm half expecting Baker Mayfield to like win MVP like next season just because it's like you get out of Cleveland and all of a sudden your career just skyrockets.
And that's why, like, everyone from Cleveland loves Joe Thomas so much because he was so good and is a Hall of Famer and had a terrible, you know, lifetime win-loss average.
But, like, he's one of the best offensive linemen ever.
Miles Garrett, he's pretty good for you guys.
He's very good for us.
So he's the one guy that's like, okay, he's sticking around.
As far as draft picks go, we nailed that one.
Nailed him.
Nick Chubb.
Yeah.
Nick Chubb squatting like 700 pounds or whatever that was.
That's terrifying.
That's too much weight.
It's too much weight for running back.
The bar was, I mean, almost curled back in on itself.
Yeah, when it, when it, I know it's like a specific bar.
Like, it's not like a metal one, but when it looks like that, yeah, I think it's too much weight.
If it ain't bending, you're pretending.
Billy, what's the most weight you've ever squatted?
475 pounds.
That's not that much.
I was hoping for a little bit more.
I'll be honest.
I did 410 one time
Not to break
Thanks my dog
Just saying
We're just guys talking about our squat backses
I've squatted 750
Oh shit
Just saying
It's pretty impressive
All right
Wait why do you root for the commander's on
Same thing
Yeah same same thing
It's very low
Expectation so it's fine
It's also kind of fun to root
When your team becomes comically bad
It becomes a little bit fun again
Oh in 16 season like
There's two yeah
their own 16 season there's usually not two weeks go by where the commanders don't do something
that's just they continue to surpass my expectations for how much a franchise can embarrass itself
that's another thing about college that I think is better and this is also uniquely
University of Tennessee also but when you're that bad and you're like okay are we going to fire
the coach and then you get just weeks of rumors of like this booster talk to this guy and he's
ponying up that's fun pay the buyout that's I enjoy coaching searches
more than I enjoy Tennessee football seasons.
Yeah.
It's fun.
You also loved the head coaching video game.
Yeah.
I feel like you like the logistics of football.
By the way, I might have a contact that can get us that video game.
Really?
Yeah.
So we're going to have to do that.
We're going to have to play that.
Love that.
All right.
Next voicemail.
What's up Macrago-Sing?
Question for you.
If the Earth is located
in space
are we in space on
earth
if we could just answer that for me
this guy is the highest guy I want to
we just end the show
so basically he's asking
it's a high question I heard what he asked
yeah we are in space
but isn't it both
yeah we're in space space is in us too
yeah we're in space
well you're made of
dead stars so
Oh, that's sick.
You are stardust.
Allegedly.
So are you, Big Tee.
No, space is fake.
Buy the T-shirt.
When it comes out.
That dude is the highest person ever.
Yeah.
All right, we got another voicemail.
Yep, one more.
Again, I got a quick question for y'all.
So if you went to jail and then got out, how would you like to be picked up in jail?
This can be what kind of vehicle?
we'll be picking you up who's picking you up what they brought with them uh what music is playing
is i'll drive off um and click however long you love uh however long you want to jail
see whether it's just a little weekend or you know 30 and got out let me know and stay handsome
slash beautiful but
you can't celebrate getting out of jail
if you're just there for a weekend
you should still be ashamed that you're getting out of jail
if it's just a couple day prison sentence
I would like to be picked up maybe in an El Camino
blasting some like bitch in Southern Rock
that'd be sick I want
I want a hot
McDonald's double quarter pounder with cheese
I want two orders of large French fries
a regulation coke
a regulation
yeah like diesel like coke
Coca Cola classic
yeah coke heavy exactly
I don't want to start calling it regulation
Coke yeah regulation coke and then
I also want an ice cold
Coorslight mountains extra blue
to polish off my second batch of fries
that's my ideal situation
so you're going regulation Coke another fry
then Coorslight yep exactly
I think the perfect jail stint would be
a Monday to Friday
getting out Friday at 5
getting picked up in a pickup truck
blasting some classic rock
with a couple of coolers of
Coors light in the back
and there's
steaks to be grilled
okay but then you have to look at the stakes
on the way home you don't get to eat them yet
there's someone grilling the bed of the pickup truck
as we pulled up got it okay
hot dogs
very cool
anyone else
I would like to be
picked up in the business vehicle of a person who I befriended preparing me to go to jail
with changes by Tupac playing as we ride off into the distance.
That is the ending to Get Hard.
Okay.
Will Ferrell Kevin Hart movie.
It's a good song.
Hollywood Luxury Bubbles.
It's a good song.
Great movie, by the way.
I've never seen it.
Very underrated.
Very good movie.
Okay, I got to check it out.
Mm-hmm.
Good movie.
So Billy is gone from the call
Yeah
He just left
There's some clients in Andorah that he has to
Need to be entertained
Yes to be meeting with right now
Consider them to be definitely entertained
That's my new
I laugh every time now
I see a tweet from you
That says entertaining clients
Yeah it's the best
It's the best euphemism of all time
Billy stumbled across it
So we're thankful that he was able to do that
Yeah I think like if you get out of jail
You just want to party right
Yeah I'd want to get picked up in a helicopter
Oh
That'd be sick too
alone away.
Although I don't think I'll
ever ride in a helicopter.
They scare me.
You're not an helicopter guy?
They scare me.
Well, you can't do heights.
Yeah.
Helicopters are terrifying.
Planes, at least I'm indoors
in a plane helicopter.
It's too close to the outside.
The doors are open.
They're badass because they can land
pretty much anywhere.
Like, I think if you can get over
the part of being in it for the time,
the landing,
just like you touching down
and then getting out of a helicopter
or even getting in one,
I think that's like sick.
Yeah.
I also think motorcycle would be pretty cool.
that'd be a great way to leave jail
getting the side car
side car did you put the goggles on
let's go the open road
nothing like it yeah
yeah those are all good choices
or a boat if you're on Alcatraz
and you just get on a boat and leave
that'd be sick too
yeah or if you're Michael Cohen
you could have just called an Uber
yeah that was
one of the crazier parts of that entire
I want to look into that more
and see how true that is
it sounds like a great place to stay
Yeah.
It sounds like a five-star hotel.
Yeah.
Like, I would like to go to that prison.
That's funded by your tax dollars.
Everything's taken care of for you.
Do you think the government should run prisons?
No.
You think private company should run prisons?
Well, kind of.
Yes, I think the government should run prisons, but far, like, it shouldn't cost as much as they do.
Okay, so we should run prisons but not schools.
Yes.
Aren't private prisons worse?
Well, everything's motivated by their stock price
and the publicly traded one,
so they just cut back on everything.
So there's some stuff that's not...
Regulation.
It's like dangerous to live in prison.
Now you can talk about whether or not...
Like, it should not be a walk in the park
if you're in prison,
but also you should be able to survive.
What publicly traded companies like own prisons?
Let's look them up right now.
They all have, like, very vague, like...
Remember when we did the episode
we talked about the most sinister sounding...
They sound like that.
...corporation names.
Wait, so their whole corporation is just owning prisons, though.
Yep, they own prisons for profit.
Then they get state contracts to build and run prisons.
Okay.
Let's see.
It's an odd business to get into.
Core Civic.
GEO is another one.
And then it says that Palantir also runs prisons.
I know that Palantir does some other stuff
contracting to the government
I didn't know that they ran prisons
I didn't know either
I have stock in Palantir
do you yep
Avery
they collect a shitload of data
they have everybody's data
Wait what's Palantir
Software company
It's run by Peter Thiel
I think it's still run by Peter Thiel
Because he owns someone
He was one of the PayPal guys
With Elon and then
Snapchat too I think
He does
I think he was one of the people
I know yeah
So yeah they do
they do data analytics so they work with every company they know everything about you that's what
they do speaking of Elon Musk did we talk about yeah we talked about it last week yeah it looks great
with his sister oh yeah that thing um yeah his his sister had two kids with his dad did we talk
about that last week we did not but she was she was raised by his father since she was four years
old. So he's a stepdaughter of his dad, but he raised her from being a kid, and now he's
got two kids with her. Pretty creepy stuff. Pretty creepy. Not a fan of Errol Musk. I'm just
going to say it. Also, I'm on the Palantir website, and this website is scary. What does it say?
Nothing real. It says foundational software of tomorrow delivered today, and it's talking about
that we build software that empowers organizations to effectively integrate their data decisions and
operations but it's like it looks like a dystopian website like it's all white and very clean
um yes very scary don't love her also it just has a picture of like trucks
I like that
on
like almost it looks like an airplane hanger
um
yeah no it's
it doesn't say anything about
um
anything good
anything safe
that's so you can always tell if
a company's evil or not
if you can't figure out what it is they do
by looking at their website
are they about us we deliver solutions
to companies
if it's like you can do like
a contact us thing and it's like interested
in solving your problems with Palantine
Software like yeah
no oh wait also
before we leave I met Childish Campino on Friday
Oh really? I saw that
Yeah, we're at
He was in my spin class
No way
Yeah he was spinning right behind me
I walked in and I was like
Holy shit is that
Childish Campito? You see hi to him?
Yeah I took a picture with him
Really? Yeah
He's on Instagram? I put on my Instagram story I'll show you
Okay
I was like I walked in I was like
That man it was 730
I was like, that man looks suspiciously like
Childish Gambino. And then
I was like, am I just being racist?
And then I like looked up
and he said something, like his wife
was with him and he said something. I was like, that's
Troy from community. Like I know who that is.
And then his locker was right next to mine and I was like,
oh my God, I was losing my shit. And then we walked in
together to the spin class. He was on the bike right behind me.
And I was like, holy shit, I'm spinning with Chadish Gambino.
Did you pedal harder?
Oh, I was, I put on the performance.
of a lifetime because I was like I can't have Chelsea Canbino think I'm weak and then he
couldn't get his shoes out of the because you know how yeah you got stuck in the clips like
Joe Biden a little bit so then after the class I was like you have to say something like
it's different when you see celebrities on the street or like in the office here like I was in a
spin class with Chelsea can be no so then I our lockers were right next to each other after
class I'm like dripping and sweat and I was just like hey I love your work and he was like
oh my God thank you so much and I was like yeah do you
mind if we get a picture and he was like oh yeah sure and then took a selfie with Josh Gambino
and then I told him I liked his outfit and he was like I knew people would fuck with it I said I do
and then I said I loved him and I ran away that's quite interesting he sounds like a nice guy
very nice now I want him to be in all my spend classes but like we were spinning to stir fry by
migos and he was like dancing I was like I bet he knows megos yeah that's crazy to think about
you need him in your classes just to like to motivate you right I was like you could just
start singing right now. Yeah. Like I would feel the same way. If somebody that I knew was in a
spin class with me or like watching me work out in the gym, I would be like, I have to show out for
this person. Right. It's different when it's a ton of strangers. But then I was like, holy shit,
it's Josh's Camino. And he wasn't like on the other side of the room. He was like directly
behind me. He was staring at that ass. I'm hoping that because his wife was right next to.
Okay. But I was like, oh my God. This is insane. What if he's like one of the weird mad dog stands out there
now? I hope not. Did you tell him that you?
that you worked for barstle so okay so the whole class so though i had 45 minutes to think about
a script of what i was going to say and i was like i don't say that right because i i was nervous
that he was going to say no and then i didn't know what to say he said yes to taking a picture thank
god but i was like i was like do i say oh hey i work i work with aryan foster i didn't know if you
knew who arian was like i didn't know what i didn't know what cards to pull i didn't just didn't
say anything wallow and gilly like it in the hip-hop community they are
are gods. Right. But then I didn't want to just be like, hey, I'm like, I work with black
people. Like that sounds bad. At that point, you're just like, you're listing like, do you know
this black person? Right. Exactly. Yeah. I, I think you played it. I think you played it well.
Yeah. I was going to mention Aryan because then I was like, okay, well, Aryan's also a rapper.
So like, I don't know the community of like who they know that they're similar. He probably
knows Tommy Alter. I'm sure Tommy Alter knows who Childish Campino is. Yeah. Or knows Chalda
I would bet. I would bet millions of dollars that Tommy knows him. Right. So I almost was like,
oh like I work with Tommy Alter
but then I was like I don't really know Tommy
so then I just got nervous and I was like
don't pull any cards just ask for a picture and leave
She said I work with Ben Mence
You're like the King of the South
Yeah wow
Can you get an intro? Yeah
So yeah that's my little I was really excited about that
Very cool
Yeah you see any famous people Big T
Trying to think the last famous person I saw
The only one that I've seen out on the street
of New York
This is like the most
I don't know if anybody will get this reference.
The home-mec teacher from the Disney Channel original movie, Eddie's million-dollar cook-off.
She walked by me, like, at my apartment one time, I was like, holy shit, that's the woman from Eddie's million-dollar cook-off.
And I was like, that's fucking awesome.
I love that movie.
Yeah, she was like right outside my apartment.
Other than that, I don't think I've really ever seen anybody like here, other than people that come into the office.
Yeah, people come to the office.
Did you say hi to her?
No.
she would have probably had her day made
it was sick though I love that movie
never seen it never heard of it
oh what
you would love this movie rocks
this movie actually is probably
very similar to your life actually not
okay all right go on progressive
ahead of its time broke down a lot of
male and female yeah
because it's about a boy in high school
and he plays baseball but he
also loves cooking just wants to cook man
and there's a girl on his baseball team
who her mom thinks she's cheerleading
but when she drops her off,
she takes off her cheerleading thing
and pulls out her baseball uniform.
Very progressive film.
Interesting.
So what part about this is my life?
You like to cook?
I do like to cook, yeah.
Bobby Flays in it.
Okay.
A lot of people like to cook.
I'm going to watch that movie tonight.
It's probably on Disney Plus.
It's so good.
I just thought like a nice cooking and sports duo.
Yeah, I might have to watch it.
I might check it out.
I'm going to go see widespread panic
with Ben Minson night, so probably won't be able to get around to that.
I'll be busy.
Wish me luck.
Watch it before next week, and we'll talk about it next week.
Okay, Eddie's Million Dollar Cookoff.
I will.
It's so good.
I will.
Okay, we will see you guys on Thursday for nanodosing.

Any other thoughts before we sign up?
Yeah, the Barstool Store.
Yep.
Got big thoughts about the Barstool Store.
