Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, macrodosing listeners, you can find us every Tuesday and Thursday on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. Would you rather have, would you rather have a all-pro player for three or four years or a very average... Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Now, let me stop. See, I've got to be pinning up against me.
Starting point is 00:00:20 That's why I don't do that shit. Wait, wait, wait, what's, isn't it, I thought an eagle was a one shot, then a putt. An eagle is two below, are we recording? Yeah. Eagle is two below whatever par is. So on a par three, it'd be a hole in one. On a par four, it'd be two. What's a birdie?
Starting point is 00:00:53 One below. What? So, if you hit it off the T, get it close to. hole and put it, what's that called? It depends what the part of the hole is. If it's a par three, then that's a birdie. If you drive the green on a par four and one putt, then that's an eagle. And if you hit two shots on the green on a par five.
Starting point is 00:01:15 Sorry, I'll research the rules in my own time. I realize that was probably a very stupid question. You were on the number one sports podcast in America for how many years? Golf isn't a goddamn sport. What? I just say some silly shit like that What defines a sports to you Billy
Starting point is 00:01:32 That's an interesting conversation Sweating You sweat when you play golf Absolutely Have you ever played golf No I actually haven't I Like I haven't really
Starting point is 00:01:45 But it's just you know I know that's a hot take That's a bad take It's not a hot take It's probably a bad take I'm just in denial You don't really sweat When you play baseball
Starting point is 00:01:55 Unless you're a pitcher I think a lot of people would say the same about baseball Baseball not a sport I think it's a sport There's a lot of arguments on that I know that's a very boneheaded thing to say No I'm just trying to find out
Starting point is 00:02:12 It's very hot button issue I mean I guess you sweat when you're If it's hot outside you'll sweat playing baseball If you sprint to second base There's running I think that's in Billy's head the difference is Yeah If a sport has running
Starting point is 00:02:25 is running a sport yes track and field is sport what else is not a sport video games aren't a sport um east sports is not a sport I don't know man
Starting point is 00:02:43 I've been back and forth on this that's actually crazy that you would say that it is because okay because it was before I got into gaming right and it's something what do we define as a spot is it's such an
Starting point is 00:02:55 ambiguous term, I guess you have to draw the line somewhere, right? Like video games require, the people who do that at a high level, like it requires an immense amount of skill. Yeah. But I think there are a ton of things that require incredible skill that are necessarily sports. Like what? What requires an immense amount of skill that is not a sport? Well, for one, I'd say video games, but like, um, operating.
Starting point is 00:03:25 heavy machinery sport it's also a sport NASCAR it's a sport I don't know like making music to make music to be like really rich making music you have to be really talented and skillful
Starting point is 00:03:41 that doesn't make it a sport but there's nothing competitive about it right so it's like it's a subjective thing I guess it's competitive when you release it but like you're not necessarily competing against anybody per se in real time right Okay, so a head-to-head competition that you would...
Starting point is 00:03:59 Yeah, if they had two guys with backhose who can dig this hole the fastest, that's a sport. I agree. Watch. I mean, shit, don't take out them like logging shits or dudes like cut down logs and like that type of shit. Like, that's a, that's an obscure sport, but it's still a sport. Yeah, it's still a sport. I think music has sports too. If there's, there's like fast drumming competitions so you can get the most beats per minute.
Starting point is 00:04:24 Yeah, it could be. I mean, yeah. Because I think if it involves, I guess that would be my definition of sport. If it involves some kind of like physical activity, hand-eye coordination, and you're competing with each other in real time, I think it qualifies as a sport. So if you went on a show with a professional e-sports player and whoever was interviewing the two of you, for whatever reason, this would be happening, goes, yeah, we have a couple of professional athletes here. area and foster and this esports guy you would you would feel that that was uh like deserved yeah i'm not highbrow when it comes like that i can see what people it would run rub them the wrong way
Starting point is 00:05:06 but like i mean it's different so it's like like for instance like when people because i mean i mean you kind of feel this right so when people say oh you don't have a real job you need to have a real job i'm like well what does what is a job you know i mean like i spent my entire life working towards a goal and I obtained it. Like, would you not respect a doctor that knew he was going to be a doctor at seven, went to school all those years, then became a doubt. You respect that, right? And it was like, yeah, but why wouldn't you respect my journey the same way?
Starting point is 00:05:36 So I understand the visceral feeling of, like, comparing the two, but it's just apples and oranges. Like, it's a different lane. You have to, bro, like, that's some of these cats because, you know, I play games now. And so, like, in order to be like at the highest level, the insane, like, if I was to show you some of the aim training things that they do and shit like it's i can't do it i can't do it and i don't know that i ever will be able to i respect it i i think as a society we kind of high brow and you know there's like three or four sports that we deemed the main you know american
Starting point is 00:06:10 sports but at the end of the day it's like i think it was what was it um world of warcraft world of warcraft got more viewership than like a super bowl why it is what it is young Yeah, I don't disagree with with any of that. Like, they're- I think golf's a game, not a sport. Okay, differentiate a game in a sport. What's the difference in a sport? It's like you're playing games.
Starting point is 00:06:37 But like, with words, with words. I think I'm going to do my Billy translator, okay? But there's some sports that are sports, but then there's games. Here's the Billy translator. A sport is a game that you can get injured playing. Tiger Woods has. Trashed his body playing golf. I think you're doing stuff.
Starting point is 00:06:58 Yeah. But like, Billy, you should, you should go watch like a slow-mo breakdown of Tiger Woods's swing. Like it's, I know absolutely it's a sport. I think it's,
Starting point is 00:07:08 you know, you have to be very talented. I was just saying. I know that's the truth. Yeah. I know that's the truth. He's having to fight his own brain maybe a little bit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:18 What about sleeping? I think sleeping could be a sport. Podcasting is a sport under these conditions. I don't know if now we're just talking We're just saying words Talking about sports can be more of a sport Than a sports sometimes But you're not competing against
Starting point is 00:07:32 There's no competition We're not competing against What's the competition? What's the competition? How does takes? Around the horn, you get points I believe But is it but like is it like a
Starting point is 00:07:43 I think No conflating competitions in sports Yeah It's a it's a I mean Square is a rectangle Rectangle is not a square
Starting point is 00:07:52 all sports are competitions all competitions are not sports I'm okay with that but I guess we get into the you have to get into the weeds of the definition and you have to draw the line somewhere there's somewhere you have to when we were talking about the meat judging competition takes you know a skill to do but it's not sport chess chess I actually think chess might be more of a sport
Starting point is 00:08:20 have you ever seen what happens to professional chess players when they compete in these big, giant matches, they sweat so much and they're so... They're so stressed out that they end up losing tons of weight like during a chess match. But that's a byproduct of stress and a mental game rather than a physical aspect.
Starting point is 00:08:41 I think competitive sex could be a sport too. I think if you had, if you did like a sex Olympics, that would be fun, wouldn't it? What would your competitions be? You could have, You could have shortest. Okay. You have longest lasting, both.
Starting point is 00:08:57 Okay. You could have wildest position. Do you think there could be an Otani that could compete in shortest and longest? Oh, I thought you were going to say that does both, that goes both ways. No. Shortest and longest competition. Yeah. He's getting drilled while drilling somebody else.
Starting point is 00:09:16 That's the Otani. The decathlon. yeah decathlon yeah you do all positions you do ten positions you judge on each one best all around all genders gymnastics it would be judged like gymnastics i don't think besides long and short there'd be any other measure you just have people holding up signs the italian judge gives a 10 for everything what what country do you think would be the best at the sex Olympics. France?
Starting point is 00:09:53 Yeah. Yeah. I would say or Italy. France or Italy. I think Brazil. Wait, we're talking about sex.
Starting point is 00:10:06 It depends, man. Because, I mean, if girth matters, we got to take into account that stereotype. I'll let you say. What stereotype are you talking about? Right.
Starting point is 00:10:17 But, uh, The black of the berry is made of the Jews. Okay, so you're saying, like, Nigeria, reigning champion. I would like to see the demographics. I don't like to see, but I would like to know the demographics and the size differentiation between countries. That would be an interesting. What if you got bonus points for not having the best equipment,
Starting point is 00:10:44 but it's like degree of difficulty in diving? So that equals the playing field. I like that, yeah. That's a good point, Billy. And the judges are actually also kind of competitors, but they just rate. Oh, yeah. That's not a bad idea either. So like the person who's like they're almost a piece of equipment, like the pommel horse.
Starting point is 00:11:12 So the guy is the judge and he just lies down and then afterwards he rates how good it was. I mean, guys, we'd just be like, everyone gets a 10. Like, that was fantastic. Thank you. Yeah. And the judges are also athletes from different countries. That's where it would get that it would get a little dicey because then you wouldn't rate certain countries as high. You need an impartial third party.
Starting point is 00:11:37 I think the impartial third party would be like a judge. Like we have judges from different countries, but more people would want to be judges than the athletes. Yeah, it's like a barbecue competition. Yeah. Being a judge is the best part. Pornhub would have like, like, you know, like film review sessions and sports casting a section in there. Have you guys seen daggering that dance hall type thing?
Starting point is 00:12:07 Yeah. Is that when they just like aggressively hump each other and dance? It like jump off stuff. That shit, wow, bro. I do not condone that shit. I don't know what the fuck that is some of the wildest stuff that comes up I love my people but that's one of the weirdest shit I've ever seen I don't know what the fuck that is crazy I think you could have like a freestyle competition of that same way but in the Olympics I think that's pretty athletic freestyle I like that it's like this is a high dive this is a hard pivot but we brought up Travis Hunter Aryan did you watch Travis Hunter at all on Saturday do you know who that is? Oh, yeah, yeah, no, I made a consorted, concerted effort to watch Dian, and I am glad that I did. It was, it's again, but when I watched college football, it's a lot of bad ball being played, but I threw that to the side.
Starting point is 00:13:05 I was thoroughly impressed with how well-coached Colorado was. They were very well-coached. They might be pretty fucking good. Yeah, they are, they're going to be a force to be. What I like about it, what I like about what Dion's doing, you know, the controversy within the black community, like, what we talk about is like how he left the HBCU and how he kind of sold him a dream. I still get that and I still think that was kind of fucked up. But what I like about what he's doing is he's shaking up the college landscape in a way that I've always wanted to shake it up and say like the rules that they put in place are all bullshit. And so he basically constructed a team off of his name, and he's changing the playing field and saying, you don't got to go to these big schools anymore, come over here, and they're going to find you. We're going to find you. So Travis Hunter did that, right? He went with them at Jackson State, came with him to Colorado. And now he's looked at as one of the top athletes in the nation right now. And so it's like he's changing the landscape of like what it means for college football, for kids to get noticed and wanted to go to the next level. So I loved it.
Starting point is 00:14:15 I don't think that's sustainable for a season for him to play 100 snaps for a season. But the fact that he can do it at such a high level against a very good team, I was a fan. I was a fan watching. I was more impressed. The craziest thing is that I want to get off my tangent. But the thing that I was most impressed about was his son, the quarterback. He's really good.
Starting point is 00:14:38 I didn't know he was that good. Like he was making pro-level passes, great decisions. the one thing I think he can work on is like you know throwing the ball out when he's when he's scrambling instead of taking those losses he's not as mobile as I thought he was going to be but all things considered I think he's going to be a very good quarterback for years to come I think he can play at the pro level I was impressed he can go to the draft this year so if he plays like that the whole season he's a first round pick yeah yeah I think USC is the real test I don't know how good
Starting point is 00:15:15 Oregon is like pretty good they're just I know but they're 13 now but like let's say they get a loss in the next three weeks like I don't think that's going to be as big of a test if they show up and like blow out Oregon but I think USC will really be the tail of their season because I see them you know I could see them beating all these teams except USC I'm not too sure about Oregon I mean I don't Colorado won one game last year right correct they were really bad they were like awful last year. I think it's unrealistic to expect them to win all their games. No, that's not going to happen. But they're definitely way better than we thought they were. They have one dude returning and he's a white safety.
Starting point is 00:15:56 Yeah. I was so, he's the only white dude on their defense right now, I think. I was so hyped to see that. I was like, he must be a dog. Like, in order to, bro, in order for Dion to keep you and he told you, I'm bringing my baggage and my baggage is Louis. And for him to withstand all of that mentally because I know they're talking them. They wanted to run most of them off. I know how that whole process go. They wanted to run them off and I'm bringing all my guys in and he stood and he stayed and he competed and he started. Shout out to buddy, man, because that, he must be a dog. Like in order to stay there. We need to go look, Dion put on their uniforms. I don't know if you saw this. They don't have captains. They have
Starting point is 00:16:34 leaders and dogs. So Travis Hunter has a D on his jersey and Shudor Sanders, the quarterback has an L. So we need to see if that guy has a D. He might. On his jersey. Pause. Yeah. There's a lot of teams where like the best players are silent leaders and they don't like they don't have the best, but they're the best players. But they get captainship because they're so good, but they don't have the best
Starting point is 00:17:00 leadership skills. So then you end up like in a scenario in the season where people are looking at the captains for leadership, but they're just great players, but not leaders, but they're dogs. So that like differentiation. sick. Okay, I'm looking up, I'm looking up the names of the safeties right now. Tell me which one you think might be the white guy,
Starting point is 00:17:19 Dion, or Aaron, for on Dion's team. Shiloh Sanders. I know it's not him. I know it's not him. Cameron, Cameron Silman Craig. That's the guy. That's the guy. You think it's Cameron?
Starting point is 00:17:33 No, no. Could be pronounced Cameron. MCAM apostrophe R-O-N. Maybe his parents named him Cameron. and that's what comes from. It's Trevor Woods. It's Trevor Woods. Is it?
Starting point is 00:17:47 Yeah, so let's see if I can find any pictures. He's like number 40 something, isn't he? 43. 48. Yeah, 43. 40, yeah. Ooh, and that's a, look, that's old Troy Palomalu number.
Starting point is 00:17:57 He knows what he's doing out there, man. I'm telling you. Let's see if we can find any recent pictures of Trevor Woods to see if he's going to have. Bro, to have one returning player on a, on a roster. and that have the the media hype that this coach is this is the most hyped coaching change of all time is it not in college football has to be i'd say so has to be i mean in a in the sense of it is the highest um percentage jump in media attention of any program ever what i'm saying colorado went from nobody talking about them to i mean yeah probably
Starting point is 00:18:37 is because like you know urban mire went to ohio state that was a very like hype but everybody talks about ohio state regardless in terms of yeah from going to the outhouse to the penthouse definitely this how you know they were they were marketing the game for this game for this when they play tc u and the next game the the picture player for they have for the other team as a player they have dion for colorado i've never seen seen no shit like that before. It's usually like player versus player, but they got a picture of Dion versus some quarterback that they play.
Starting point is 00:19:14 You know what I'm saying? I've never seen that before. Dion is a different animal, man. I found a picture of Trevor Woods. He does not have a letter on his chest. We got to get him the dog patch. He might be a dog. He has to be.
Starting point is 00:19:33 He has to be. You know, who's that? Only white dude on an all black defense. return only returning starter in the biggest coaching change media hyped in the history of college football he got to be a dog he's dog ian i got a question because this show is about is about exchanging points of view finding out more about each other as individuals finding out more about other people's cultures uh it's a question that i've been wondering for the last couple years maybe three years here at barstool um i've noticed and it's not like
Starting point is 00:20:05 a negative thing or anything but something that i've definitely noticed across the board, uh, African-American people tend to refer to bar stool as bar stools. They pluralize it. Is that, can you explain to me like why that might be? Because I'm genuinely curious. It's, it's something that it's like, it's definitely noticeable. I just don't know why. I don't know that there's a reason. I feel like, so like, I don't know if y'all ever heard me, but I better, hey, dogs. Like, chill out. Like, I'll say dogs. Like, I'll say dogs. Or like, when they be like, hey, y'all want some sonics. Okay. I don't know what that is. We, we pluralize a lot of things that aren't plural. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:20:45 That's interesting to know. So it's, it's not just the name Barstool. It's kind of across the board. Nah, nah. It's kind of just, I don't know. We always slang everything. I don't know. I don't, I don't know a specific reason. But like, we always, it's like it's like a, it's like it's sonic, not sonics, y'all. Get it together. Like, we'll do that shit all the time. I don't know. I don't know. I've actually noticed. that a lot in the South also. I think southern people like Kroger's. Everybody says Kroger's and it's Kroger. I think that might be
Starting point is 00:21:19 Dad's talking about social media like Bill Belichick talking about social media. Like your Facebooks and your snap faces. Yeah. I definitely, now that you brought it up, Big T, my grandparents definitely called Kroger, Kroger's. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:34 Or Myers. Myers is Myers. It might be a Southern thing. It might be a southern thing. I think it could be. Yeah. I've been in the south since I was 17, so my West Coast routes are kind of escaping me. Okay, well, that's good to know. All right. Learning. Education. That's what macrodosing is all about, man. You know what else? It's all about. It's about Three Chi. I love Three Chi. You guys love Three Chi. Three Chee is the best. I want to work
Starting point is 00:22:04 with Three Chi, actually. Three Chi. Let's talk about mids. Let's talk about making some perfectly average weed. I'm talking some good weed. You know, some good solid weed. Just a good weed. That's all I want. Maybe we can make something to happen there.
Starting point is 00:22:20 I do love Three Chee though. I like their gummies. I like their oils. Their gummies are the best. I like to have, I cut it in half, and then I have half of a gummy of Three Chee. I sit back. I've been watching the show Painkillers on Netflix recently.

I fucked up at the start of the show, mostly because I didn't really know when we started recording, but congratulations and welcome back. Thank you, my brother. Appreciate you. Had a little baby.
Starting point is 00:24:28 Sorry, haters. I'm back with the spicy tanks. Yeah. No, congrats. So in the NFL, we always talk about the baby bump. players get touchdowns if they have a baby during the week, especially if they're like a wide receiver or a tight end because everybody's like happy that they're, you know, they're, enjoying their new family.
Starting point is 00:24:46 They're probably in a great mood. You want to subconsciously at least help that person out, maybe more inclined to toss them to football. So, Aaron, people are expecting a baby bump performance out of you today. It's going to be a fire episode, man. It's going to be lit. We come in there hot with the topic as well. No pun intended, by the way.
Starting point is 00:25:05 baby bump, and the topic is Catholic Church and pedophiles, but no pun intended. We asked Aryan in the group chat yesterday, like, hey, what do we want to do for tomorrow, whatever? He just goes Catholic Church slash pedophiles question mark. I was like, oh, okay, wow, you're really, we're back. We're back. Yeah, I was the only thing about topic. We ain't touched that.
Starting point is 00:25:27 You know what I mean? So might as well. Yeah. Yeah. It's good to be back, though, man. It's a nice little sabbatical. I'm back, though. Yeah, we're happy to have you.
Starting point is 00:25:39 So what's new? What's new in your world? A bunch, actually. This was probably one of the longest two weeks of my life, man. A lot of stuff I won't share on there, but there was a lot of roller coaster ride. A lot of good, a lot of bad. It's just a whole bunch of shit, man. And so I'm just glad to start that this, that little stint in my life is over.
Starting point is 00:25:59 Happy to move on. That's good. I'm glad that you're back, too. What do you guys want to talk about before? before we get into Catholic Church stuff. I got one thing. I came in with something I wanted to, well, I didn't know, right?
Starting point is 00:26:12 And so, because, you know, I just had a child. And so I didn't know how hard it was for women to have maternity leave. Like a lot of people don't have paid maternity leave. I had no idea. Like, you have a baby, and they're like, yeah, we'll give you off. We're just not going to pay for it. And they don't pay them.
Starting point is 00:26:32 And so it's like they just have to take three months off, four months off. and just exist. Like, that's crazy. I had no idea. And I think, like, in Europe or something like that, like, it's paid, right? To my understanding. Oh, and it's like a long time. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:48 It's like a couple years. Do you really get two years? I think I've heard that somewhere. Yeah. That could be incorrect. I mean, I was just sitting here thinking, I'm like, because, you know, she got to go back to work and like, I don't know, three months, four months. And, you know, then, you know, the, the onus is going to fall on myself, which, you know, I don't mind at all. But I'm going to be extremely busy, right?
Starting point is 00:27:13 Where it's like this could be a shared thing, but she got, you know, she got to go back to work. It's just like a whole thing, like average working people. It's tough. That's tough having a towel. I just don't remember, like, going through this because, like, previous children were born and, like, they didn't work. And so this is, it's just, it's a while I was thinking about people actually have to go through this. That's a tough position to be. And that's just fucking crazy.
Starting point is 00:27:38 It really is. Up to a year in Europe, it seems. So the top is Bulgaria with 410 days and you can spread it out too. You can come back and take it whatever you want. Norway's 49 weeks. Sweden, 480 days. Germany, 14 weeks. In Greece, 43 weeks.
Starting point is 00:27:58 Japan, 12 months. Iceland, six months. So those, I mean. it makes sense though like if like if you want to like develop and curate a good loving home stable environment for your kid that first year is imperative but like we like ah get your ass back to work this shit cracking yeah if you want to do our maternity leave policy I don't know that we have anything mandated like it's not mandated that it's paid oh for the podcast I don't know it sounds like two weeks and we back to work It would be interesting. What if there was a company over in Europe and their workers were really upset with just the way that the company was going
Starting point is 00:28:47 and every female employee decided that they were going to get pregnant at the exact same time together. And so then they'd have to all get paid at once to be out for like a year and a half. That'd be tough. Well, there's so... What, Billy? I mean, they might, if they're around each other a lot, sometimes they get synced up, so that could help.
Starting point is 00:29:11 Yeah, you get on the same cycle. Yeah, so they'd all get pregnant at the same time, basically. Yeah, they could. They could, yeah. Pseis. I think I talked about that on the show, right? Pseisis. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:23 Is that what that is? No, pseudo-siasis is when, like, you start, like, a women, a woman will, can, like, psychologically. go through, like she thinks she's pregnant and her body starts developing pregnancy. Her breasts start to swell with milk and like her cycle stops. Like all these things really happen, but she's not pregnant, but she thinks she's pregnant. It's a pseudocysis.
Starting point is 00:29:45 It's a real thing. I learned about that on Glee. I learned way too much pregnancy sex ed from the TV show Glee. And that happened on there. I would double check on that. On Glee? Yeah, but I know.
Starting point is 00:30:01 No, just whatever they're teaching on I would consult a second reference. How many things did I say pseudosaesis each year? I want to know more about this. I mean, the mind is a very powerful thing. That's why the placebo effect is like studied because you can get yourself
Starting point is 00:30:19 that something's happening, then your body will actually develop those symptoms. I mean, bro, like one of the best feelings in the world is an orgasm, right? I guess one of the best feelings we have is humans. Make a quote card out of that, please. One of the best feelings And then when you're sleeping, you can give yourself an orgasm without any physical touch.
Starting point is 00:30:42 That's crazy. The brain is powerful. We just don't utilize it. You know what I'm saying? A lot of the time you're like humping your mattress, though. Is that true? We don't know that. Billy just made it.
Starting point is 00:30:56 We don't know that. Is that true? I don't sleep on my stomach. I don't sleep on my stomach. Yeah, I don't either. Your brain can initiate an orgasm without physical touch. It happens all the time. Matt Dogg has a fact here.
Starting point is 00:31:15 Maybe I has a wet. She has a fact. Pseis, it said that there are between one to six cases per 22,000 births. So you got to do some math there. That seems like a lot, though. Wait, so that makes it sound like it's being pregnant and not knowing. No. No, that's her birth.
Starting point is 00:31:36 It's being pregnant and you're, it's your, yeah, it's your body giving all the signs of pregnancy, but you're actually not. It says fewer than 600 cases have been formally documented. Okay, so it's not that, it's not that frequent, but it is a thing that has happened. It happens, yeah. It says it was way more, it was way more common when pregnancy tests weren't as accurate. Hmm. But the inverse can be true too, right?
Starting point is 00:32:02 you can be pregnant and like there have been women who have been pregnant and not known at all. It's a whole TLC show. Yeah. You would much rather be pregnant or you'd much rather not be pregnant and think that you're pregnant. But it'd be the bigger Jones though, right?
Starting point is 00:32:15 It'd be the bigger Jones. It's not like. No, I think like. I saw a sorority girl on TikTok who was like, I mean, there's big sorority girls, Billy. Like you think they only all skin. What was that?
Starting point is 00:32:26 Some of them are very selective. That's crazy. Yeah. I don't know enough about sororities but you tell me they, you weigh too much for this sorority? I watched, I watched,
Starting point is 00:32:42 I got roped into watching like some sorority documentary and they're like, there's some cut road crazy shit they make them go through to like make the sorority. Like hell week. Training camp? It's like trying out from Navy Cs. It is a call it one of it.
Starting point is 00:33:01 Rush. Rush. you go yeah rush but this tiny girl ended up having a baby and time i she ain't shown no like she her her belly ain't grow nope that's crazy i saw on tictock that one i want to do a uh i want to make you know those fake lottery tickets that said that you won yeah ken jack got me with that one time yeah you got to be you got to be woken that i should i i should it was disappointing that i allowed myself to get God by that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:30 I want to make just fake positive pregnancy tests. That'd be funny, wouldn't it? And just hand them out to strangers or like coworkers? No, like go sneak into a supermarket and put my own package on the shelf. That might be a crime. That's fucked up. That's not cool, dude. I don't agree with this one.
Starting point is 00:33:47 Yeah, this is bad take. It's probably a bad take. It's probably, but I'm saying it wouldn't be as bad as if you made a fake negative. Yeah. Effect negative would be worse. Yes. Would that be your defense in court? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:03 I considered making it a fake negative. When you consider what I could have done. Think about it. I got one more thing. I got one more thing. And this is more towards Maddie and Mac. And maybe this is an old trend. But I was watching Love Island.
Starting point is 00:34:27 I love this. I love the show. Yeah. So me. And there's this girl on her name Carmen, who's messy as hell, but that's beside the point. She does her eyebrows in this, like, I think they're called laminated. And she literally brushes them upwards to where they look like hella bushy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:51 This is the worst trend of beauty that I've ever seen in my life. It is awful, bro. That's like the new, what would you go? Like, not high fashion. It's the way like influencers and like models and everything do it. And they take either soap, like a bar of soap, soapy brows for a little bit. Or, yeah, you take brow gel and you just push them up as far as you can to make it seem as thick as they can be. Because for a while you wanted really, really thin eyebrows.
Starting point is 00:35:21 Now you want as thick of eyebrows as possible. So then they laminate them. I don't know how they laminate them. Like, I don't know. They use, like, a chemical, but then they laminate them so then they don't move. So, like, when you move your eyebrow or when you, you know, rub your eyebrow and your eyebrow hairs move, theirs don't do that. They're there.
Starting point is 00:35:43 It's like chemical hair spray, basically. It is the worst trend I've ever seen in any kind of fashion, cosmetic. And it is, it is, it looks horrible. It looks like, I don't know. You've got a caterpillar on your face. She looks dog. It's horrible, bro. Pushy eyebrows aren't, you know.
Starting point is 00:36:02 They can be. No, no. Whatever your eyebrows are, fire. Cool. But to, but to brush them upwards and then like paste them like that, it's the weirdest. And I'm not really, I don't want to like, you know, shame people,
Starting point is 00:36:15 whatever makes you feel beautiful. Fine, whatever. That's your ugliest shit to me. And she does it every episode. I'm like, be like, you wake up and brush your eyebrows up. Well, well, yes. that or she has them laminated and so she doesn't have to do anything she just wakes up and they're there but i have been got by that trend once or twice i haven't eliminated them but i do i have
Starting point is 00:36:35 there are pictures out there of me with some bushy eyebrows that's just horrible though i can't there's there's an there's an in-between there is a there is a way you can do that without looking like you got zapped by an electrical fuse it's it's just not a good trend i mean that's just a personal I know there probably some women out there who be like, mind your penithing, that's fine. That shit is dog ugly. That shit's horrible. That's all.
Starting point is 00:37:04 That was my eight off. Is that Love Island U.S. or U.K.? Oh, U.S. U.S. I do watch the U.K. one, though. U.K. is way better. U.K. girls do some weird shit from that standpoint. Like what?
Starting point is 00:37:19 Like you can, for something like, it's hard to explain, but I can look at a girl in. know by the way she does her makeup that she's from the UK. I don't know what. Oh, I like this. I like this. We got test this out, Billy. Because she's a chaff. Yeah, she's a chab. Yeah, what's that called? A chaff. What is it? What is it a chav?
Starting point is 00:37:38 Yeah, they like, they like, it's like Jersey Shore but did like different. Yeah, it's basically like the Jersey Shore of Britain or like Jersey Shore girls of Britain where they're like super orange like they spray tan their skin super orange have super super super intense makeup and like a lot of like hairspray going on it's like basically like snooky of britain but on tuesday in it
Starting point is 00:38:04 we should do a blind sampling new jersey or great britain and see how good billy is at determining the two yeah usually but the thing is because the british girls are so pale at like the side of their face you can see that they're not actually tanned that's the Yeah, Jersey girls are just very, very 10. You get a Jersey girl in like August. And what would be the funniest conversation, like two
Starting point is 00:38:35 accents talking into each other in English? Like, what would be the funniest to listen to? They wouldn't understand each other. Those are like, it was just too, like, too random like, what would be the funniest conversation to do that? Jersey. And chat, probably.
Starting point is 00:38:52 I'd say, Liverpool Alabama and and like a French person speaking English I was going to say like somebody
Starting point is 00:39:01 who actually lives in Nigeria okay that'd be very funny that'd be funny to hear um Texas
Starting point is 00:39:13 and South Africa Certifica Sif Africa I'm from Sif Africa I'm from Sif Africa they do have funny as I mean clue. They do.
Starting point is 00:39:24 You're Bushman. Before we get into the castle of church, do you guys want to talk about the big news that's coming out tonight? It came out last night actually if you're listening. Big news. I want to talk. Is this about by the way, Tucker Carlson, having that guy on who says Barack Obama
Starting point is 00:39:41 is gay is low, like low standards even for him. Yes, definitely what it is. Is it low status for him? I was like, this is total bullshit. wait is it Dave are they interviewing Dave again that'd be funny I saw somebody did post a screenshot it had the caption like man says he had sex with Barack Obama in 1999 and it was a still frame from the from the video of Tucker interviewing Dave it was a very funny meme but
Starting point is 00:40:10 yeah Tucker had had on a convicted con artist actually was named Larry Sinclair so yeah he's a con artist he's been arrested for like forgery and a bunch of stuff and he interviewed him about the time that Sinclair allegedly claims that he had sex with Obama in 1999. The story goes something like this because he did tell the story back in 2008 also, right? So here's the story and we can do fact or fiction. Do we believe this guy or not? All right. So Larry Sinclair is going to Chicago to attend his godson's graduation from the Naval Academy
Starting point is 00:40:45 or some sort of Navy ceremony. And he arranges for a limo driver to take him around the city. and then he asked the limo driver, hey, can you show someone that can show me a good time in Chicago? The limo driver then proceeds to say, I've got just the guy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:01 Takes him to meet Barack Obama. At the time was a state senator, right? Yeah, who the limo driver knew. Yeah, the limo driver's like, I got just the guy that will fuck you. And he takes him to meet Obama. And then Larry Sinclair says, hey, I want to buy $250 worth of Coke from you.
Starting point is 00:41:21 Is that cool? And Obama's like, absolutely it is. So Obama takes out the Coke and puts it on a CD case. Larry Sinclair starts to chop it up. And then Obama pulls out his crack pipe that he keeps on him. And then he starts smoking crack. Well, Larry is snorting the cocaine. And then Larry proceeds to give him head.
Starting point is 00:41:42 And then they have sex with each other twice. And that man's name was Barack Hussein Obama. And so then he told this story in 2008. He told it at the New York Press Club, or maybe it was the National Press Club in D.C. And no one really believed him at the time. And in fact, he got arrested just a couple months later on charges of forgery and a bunch of other stuff.
Starting point is 00:42:05 But he put it out there at the time. He did mix up the limo driver's name. He gave two conflicting names on who this limo driver was. A long time ago. It was a long time ago. Who can remember who he had sex with in Chicago nine years ago? Yeah. I think it would be even funnier if it was true,
Starting point is 00:42:20 but it wasn't Barack Obama. It was a Barack Obama impersonator. Yeah. Who knows how many guys this fake Obama's had sex with? There wasn't really Obama impersonators in 99, though. Yeah, but can you imagine how cornered the market would be? I mean, the OG for sure. Yes.
Starting point is 00:42:39 Like, if some dude was like, I had sex with Barack Obama in 2010. It was just a Barack Obama impersonator, and this guy swore. And it's like cracked down binge that it was Barack Obama. yeah it's actually not a bad idea being being an Obama impersonator you happen to be gay you travel the country and you sell people hallucinogens and then you have sex with them and then everybody thinks they fucked Obama it's actually that guy we get hired for parties I bet like you I swear to God if you go to see this guy you will 100% believe that you
Starting point is 00:43:14 fucked Obama that guy would make a lot of money it's Obama gay cosplay yeah Yeah, it's like hiring like a fake cop stripper to show up at your house, but you got you get fake Obama does the fact this guy could be a nut job. Who knows? I don't know this guy from Adam. Who knows? Well, yes. Crazy what we'd do. Okay. He might be a nut job. Does the fact that Obama said he thinks about having sex with men a lot, change your mind, make you think there's a one percent chance this guy's telling the truth. There's a reason why this interview is coming out now and it's because of that. Didn't you say out of context you have sex with men on this podcast? I don't believe so. Go on, Billy? Yeah, I'm interesting. He wasn't necessarily a lie.
Starting point is 00:44:02 But a lot of things can be taken out of context. Oh, I told, I said I'd fuck Billy's corpse. Yeah, that's true. So, I mean, take that out of context. You're a gay necrophilia. No, I sure, dude. Yeah, I think you're. I'm actually, like, the Obama Slanders.
Starting point is 00:44:19 That's a, that's a what? Would, would the sexual preference matter if there's a lifeless body? Like, would you, you know what I'm saying? Like, like gay necrophilia, wouldn't it just be necrophilia? Yeah, I, I tend to agree. I feel like if you're a necrophiliac, the gender doesn't really, that's not going to, that's not going to stop you. So if you're, if you're like that guy on a thousand ways to die that had sex with the, the, the cow heart.
Starting point is 00:44:51 Are you a necrophiliac or a beastialitis? I don't know the show that you're talking about, Billy. You dropped that like it was American culture canon. Everybody knows the thousand ways to die is absolutely culture canon on Spike TV. This sounds like just a Billy thing. You guys don't like that you sound like that dude on dodgeball. He's like, I learned it in obscure sports weekly. None of everybody reads this.
Starting point is 00:45:16 Did you guys not religiously watch Spike TV? We did not. I mean, clearly not. I watched it occasionally. I know the show that you're talking about, but there's a thousand different way. I didn't see. I've watched maybe two episodes. No,
Starting point is 00:45:29 I didn't watch all that. I think the only show I ever watched on Spike was didn't. Wasn't pros versus Joe's on Spike? Yeah. And that's coming back actually. Is it? But it's going to be pros versus bros. Okay.
Starting point is 00:45:39 Oh, Deson Jackson. I see that shit on Twitter or. Yeah. It's Twitter. That show was so good. It was good. People was just getting embarrassed. I'm not doing that.
Starting point is 00:45:47 So do not, do not contact me. I'm not fucking running the ball against no regular dude You're scared to getting your ass kicked Call it with you what I will not be doing that Yeah Billy you should be a bro actually We've got some footage already on pros
Starting point is 00:46:02 versus bros Where it's Will Compton against Billy football We don't have to talk about We have some footage of Aryan too People forget to give up a reception Oh that's right yeah Big T went across the middle Big time on it dip the shoulder Unreal
Starting point is 00:46:15 Unreal I would have scored if it was a real game too I was by his ass we should we should do the tennessee minute though so let's let's do the tennsy minute uh presented by your company here i heard that we're in talks to get you sponsored big tea this ball love that so um Tennessee big statement win against uva yeah softening them up nice for jm uvA is about to get a train running on them by macrodose are you um so ebo our other uh james madison graduate this is his super bowl is the virginia game they're jm u's a seven and and a half point favorite on the road that's scary to me it's very scary to me it's too much it's terrifying to me um i mean if you had told me 10 years ago that would be favored in charlottesville against uv i'd be like you're insane this is this is nuts but that's just the nature of the beast right now jm u's hot we're a good team uva is having a bad i was going to say down year they're having
Starting point is 00:47:08 a down decade yeah um well uh 19 they were very good were they went to the orange bowl i think i believe it was 2019. Okay. Well, this year is not 2019. Correct. Bad few years. JMU being favored at UVA is, it's crazy. I would prefer that we would not be a seven and a half point favorite or whatever it is. But if we win, then we can do the Ohio State thing. James Madison University, the University of Virginia. Wow, that'd be big. Yeah, be huge. That'd be big. I regret saying it out loud right now because I don't want to jinx it. But yeah, Jamie should win this game, but anything can happen. But, yeah, Aryan, you, uh, you texted during the game.
Starting point is 00:47:48 Do you watch a little bit? I was going back and forth. And then when I was on the same time as Colorado. It was a very boring. So, like, I watched like the first, like, you know, it was just boring. Like, no, no disrespect. But I just lost interest. And I was like, I'd much rather watch the, the Colorado game, which was entertaining.
Starting point is 00:48:06 Right. But a storyline. It just, it was just, I saw a little bit. I didn't see enough to critique. We said what? One TV? Is that it? What do you mean?
Starting point is 00:48:18 You're a one TV guy? Yeah, I'm not going to have seven fucking games playing. Nah, bro, bro, man. He's calling you, I mean, I guess you're not that rich. My TV 100 inches, though, because I mean. So you could easily,
Starting point is 00:48:31 split that thing into four games. I'm not interested in that. Like, when I watch the game, I want to watch the game. I don't want to have seven. Like, I don't have to report on all these games. You know what I'm saying? And like, that's, yes, y'all's bad. Like, I can't, I can't even focus on that type of shit.
Starting point is 00:48:47 Like, I like to break down again, see what the secret went wrong, see what they doing wrong, what their tendencies are. That's how I like to break down. I'm not going to bounce back and forth, like, I agree because a lot of people might as well just have a scoreboard up. It's hard to watch. They like the numbers. They like the numbers of football more than an actual football. I agree with that. You can like both, though.
Starting point is 00:49:11 No, but there's like, no, like, football nerds like i feel like numbers people aren't real like football guys because they're also the same people who are good at fantasy football which just isn't reality well even then so it's like when you look at like when i i played one year fantasy football when i was in the league 2014 and i fucking dominated that league because like i understood okay if they go against this this defense this defense's tendency is to do this this, they'll do this well against this offense. You know, you're able to judge it and gauge it way better as whereas now I'm guessing.
Starting point is 00:49:50 I'm totally good because I'm not watching. But like so when I watch a game, I think I look at the game differently. I look at it like an offensive coordinator would rather than like a fan. Like, you're like, oh, this is a good player. I'm looking at, okay, it's third and seven. What are the tendencies of this defense on the third down? What, like, what formation did they line up in? What is the, you know, I look at the game like that.
Starting point is 00:50:09 And so like to have four games on, I can't. I can't compartmentalize the game like that. It doesn't make sense to me. I like to watch the routes and the coverage and just watch it all develop at the same time. Yeah, I mean, see, like, so, like, you know, you see what coverage they're in, right? They're in cover zero.
Starting point is 00:50:26 They're in one. They're in six. They're in two. They're in class. Like, all these different, there's a game. It's a chess game being played by the coordinators, which I like to watch. That's what I like to watch.
Starting point is 00:50:34 It's not necessarily. And then every day you get a special player that you like to watch who can, I think that's what special about football. to me is like every now and then you'll have a player that it doesn't the scheme doesn't matter right that's how offensive and defensive coordinator is look at it as well they look at it as it the scheme is like the the field of play and then every now and there's there's players that kind of transcend that and it doesn't matter what you throw at them they're going to make a play and that to me that's the beauty of the game also i saw a clip of larry david that absolutely i back 100
Starting point is 00:51:09 percent there might be another hot take i like where you go with this aaron because i i listened to mike greenberg's radio show this morning and he played this clip of larry david bro i i hadn't thought it all the way through but larry david finished my thought no more kickers and no more kicking in football there need not be kickers they don't it there's it it has nothing to do with football it has zero to do with football the game needs to be played by the players that play football kicking is the most asinine aspect of football and it just needs to be done away with
Starting point is 00:51:45 no more care you're going to change the name yeah no keep it football and have no kicking call it whatever you want don't care no more fucking no more kickers bro okay what about this because this is my solution to the problem I know you hate kickers
Starting point is 00:52:01 you're you're racist against kickers that's I don't hate kickers I just don't think that we don't play the same sport we don't play like like when you look at like Adam Venetary, who's the greatest kick of all time, like you talk about him in the sense, because he's a Hall of Famer, like, as the same breath as like a Randy Moss. Get the fuck out of here. They're not the same athlete.
Starting point is 00:52:20 They didn't play the same game. He maybe was on the field one percent of the time he played football. It's ridiculous. What do you think about this? No disrespect. You keep the kicking in the game, but the player that scores the touchdown has to kick the extra point. What about field goals?
Starting point is 00:52:39 Field goals, whoever's on the field during third down. You can pick one? Yeah. So then you would just teach all the quarterbacks to kick. Or you could have, if it's like third and long, you can have a kicker that lines up in the slot and you kind of hide them out there and you sacrifice that one position for the third and long. And again, that would, that would have like goofy consequences. What if you're kicking a field goal not on first down or not on fourth down?
Starting point is 00:53:04 Honestly, the previous play. That might make people better. and kicking what a fucking revelation you just had no no no because you have better better athletes learning how to kick but also since it's not so repetitive they're not
Starting point is 00:53:22 it doesn't have that weird yip type action behind it you know what I'm saying no I disagree with that billy because the the kickers that we have in the NFL right now are so fucking good because they're specialized because they grow up kicking and they go to
Starting point is 00:53:39 kicking camps from the time they're like 12 years old the kicking has never been better in the NFL across the board it takes a lot of work to be that good no but that's the same reason why they get like weird mental shit because they've been doing it for so long the same thing that like it's like so perfect that the pressure like it snaps them yeah but even when even when a kicker has a weird mental thing going on like brett mer was that the guy on the cowboys last year yeah couldn't make a field goal or an extra point at the end of the season yeah um even when he's missing they're usually not like egregious absolutely disgusting misses when you get a guy who's not a specialist that tries to kick usually their misses are just fucking awful so yeah mayor had like
Starting point is 00:54:21 a mental problem but it's it's different when you're trained to be that good at kicking for like your entire life you can't you can't possibly take a guy that um is like a quarterback or an all-star player and then have them grow up and dedicate that same amount of time to learning the kicking game. There's not enough hours of that's like this is plenty of guys that can kick Chattotocoshenko, West Walker. But see, this is my point though. This is my point though.
Starting point is 00:54:48 The chiefs have a guy too. Y'all are all big football fans, right? I grew up playing since I was seven years old. Never once, and correct me if I'm wrong, my brothers. Never once have you been like, oh shit, they're about to kick. I can't wait to see this. It's just a byproduct of the rules of the game. Never once were you like, man, I got, who's your favorite,
Starting point is 00:55:07 whoever your favorite kick is. You remember like, man, I can't wait to catch this game because Pat McAfee about the punt. Never has that been the cake. Nobody goes and buys tickets to watch Sebastian Janikowski hit a 50. Nobody does that. That was going to be my example, actually. Janikowski was awesome. He was like 200 at 60 pounds.
Starting point is 00:55:25 Yeah, it was like a pudgy ass that was fun to make fun of. But like, you didn't, you're not going to go, you don't watch the game to watch him kick. Well, he's a byproduct of watching him kick. Justin Tucker. Justin Tucker, people like watching him kick because he's so good. Nobody does. They like watching him kick because he has to kick because it's a part of the game. But nobody goes to the game because he's kicking.
Starting point is 00:55:47 People go to the game to see Lamar Jackson. People go to the game to see, you know, their defense. That's why you go to the game. If you cut out kickers, right, you get more offense versus defense. To me, the most exciting thing in sports in general is college football. ball overtime. I love that. Line up at the 25 offense versus defense, stop them. Stop them, right? Same thing. Like, if they adopted that in NFL overtime would be amazing. But even more so, if you cut out kicking, they already low-key half because they moved it up because they saw there
Starting point is 00:56:23 was a lot of injuries and kickoff return, right? So they moved it up so that all, it's mostly touchbacks now. There's really no kick return anymore. So that's kind of no longer. We've already kind of done away with that. All we have to do is get over the mental aspect of punting. Now you're gonna have to be more strategic with your offense because you have to go for it on fourth down now and they get the ball right there i love it you would you would see more football less fucking kicking no but i love special teams kickoffs and punts i think are fun to watch you'd be in the minority fam but i i love that you like that but no but watching great kick returners deshawn jackson giants eagles thursday night football where my
Starting point is 00:57:06 in the night football, like when I was in fifth grade, that was like one of the most exciting plays ever seen in my life. And I was like, oh my God. Love that. Now, every punt could happen like that. Love that. But the thing is, you're going to see who, though? Deshaun Jackson.
Starting point is 00:57:22 He's a receiver. He made plenty great plays like that on offense. I know, but punt returns and kick returns, like watching guys return them. And again, we ever seen a kicker try to tackle a real athlete? It's fucking hilarious. That's also fun. It's hilarious. It's hilarious.
Starting point is 00:57:40 That's what I'm saying. I don't think kicking this is being a game. I'm with Larry David. I stand by my brother 100% kicking. All right. Let me ask you this because so field goals obviously there, let's say just you may just disagree with this premise entirely, but let's just say for the sake of this argument that you have to keep some sort of, obviously touchdowns worth six points,
Starting point is 00:58:03 field goals worth half that. You have to keep something in that. the game that is worth half of a touchdown. How would you do that? Why do you have to keep something against worth half a dozen? I'm just saying because that's what we've always had. So if you get rid of kicking entirely, you have to come up with a new rule to get something that's still worth three points.
Starting point is 00:58:24 I got a good one. I guess I don't agree with the premise, but if we're going off of the premise, um, Or maybe like a turnover is worth a point or something like that, right? Where it matters if you lose the ball. It's not just a change of position, now you lose a point. That makes it a way bigger point of emphasis, right? I haven't thought that one all the way through, but something like that, something that we're on the field of play is where the points are determined.
Starting point is 00:58:55 Not some dude that never goes to meetings, sits on the side, all game long and he gets to decide whether these dudes that have been putting blood, sweating tears in for three hours, he gets to decide whether they win or lose. It's just goofy. It makes no sense. But there's nothing like, like Tennessee, Alabama last year, lining up two seconds on the clock, tied game, guy comes in, you're just waiting to see what's going to happen with this kick and he nails it.
Starting point is 00:59:28 And, like, that's awesome. But that's because your side won, right? Okay, even as a fan, hear me out, even as a fan, would you much, would you rather it be decided by the players that have been banging it out all game or some cat who's wearing number 86 who, you know what I'm saying, who just don't play football? He don't play football. I don't disagree with your argument. It's just that it's so integral to the game at this point. Like, there's an entire, like, the whole, at the end of a game, if you're down one and you're at your own 20 with 38 seconds left, you know, okay, we only need to get to the 35 to have a chance to win. Now you've, like, completely changed the whole game.
Starting point is 01:00:18 Like, shit, we've got to go 80 yards in 30 seconds. It's just, I don't disagree with what you're saying that, like, yeah, nobody is, for the most part, nobody's buying the kickers jersey. but like it is part of the game and if you took that away you'd be changing it dramatically and I think once you get over the fact the emotional like what about field goal I think once we get over that as a society we would enjoy the game better
Starting point is 01:00:45 because then the game is settled by the players who are playing rather than cats who just never are on the field and who have small shoulder pads who have one bar face masks and who are if you touch them it's a flag like get that shit out of here It's not ball, bro.
Starting point is 01:00:59 But, hey, it is what it is. Instead of an extra point, I think we should have a goal line, Oklahoma for one point. I love that. I love that. Bang it out. You have to go for two. That would make that shit. You have to go for two.
Starting point is 01:01:13 Lying up on the two-year-line, you've got to go for two. No, no, no. Just make it three on three, five-by-five box with the goal line in the middle and just have one guy, like, someone's got to move. You know what I'm saying? that some kind of yeah some kind of three one on one
Starting point is 01:01:31 some kind of new one so I think that would be sick of the players kept the kicking in the guy that scores a touchdown has to kick or if you want to go for two then a player that's on the field
Starting point is 01:01:42 that weighs over 300 pounds has to kick people watch that there's a ton of there's a ton of offensive linemen who have freakish flexibility like there's a lot
Starting point is 01:01:56 more fat guys that can do splits than like super athletic guys i don't know what about one of my best friends in the entire world in ap p aunt parker who he actually coaches for georgia tech he was uh my guard in college he has the best feet or ladders that i've ever seen from any corner from any receiver any runnerback he has the best feet i've ever seen and it's wild i don't know how he did it and he's the fastest swimmer i've ever seen too he used to kill everybody all db running back anybody boy was bad i'll get that's just as well yeah i mean i'm not i'm not disputing the fact that big dudes are flexible they've got good footwork but billy you're definitely you're definitely you're definitely
Starting point is 01:02:37 underestimating how good professional kickers have become no i bet they're great at their job but extra points i think is pretty like it's not that now they're from the 15 yeah it's not that easy bill you have you have to you have to kick a 30 33 yarder have you seen the compilation of all the non-kickers kicking field goals. Yeah, you name three guys in the course of the last like 20 years of the game. No, no, it's like eight. It's like eight dudes. Okay, so eight guys
Starting point is 01:03:06 over the course of 20 years can kick an extra point. Also, when they were from the three. Yes. So yeah, Ocho Cinco, pretty good. He's got a fucking leg on him. I'm not, I'm saying like legitimately Chad Ocho Cinco is good at kicking. Justin Reed, the safety. He loves like a super soccer
Starting point is 01:03:22 soccer fan. Yes. Justin Reed, the safety on the Chiefs is a fucking beast. He can kick 50 yarders. And he knows what he's doing. He's awesome at it. Wes Welker, I don't think he ever kicked an extra point. I think you're talking about Doug Flutty, Billy. He did. You're talking about Doug Flutty doing a drop kick? I do respect the profession. I don't want to get that twisted in the sound by you. I'm about to cut up and I'm about to get a shit
Starting point is 01:03:46 for it. I do respect the profession, right? Thousand percent, those dudes are great at what they do. I just don't think it has much to do with actually playing the game. Like, so much so it was like we used to fuck around before and after practice or like during special teams and like a couple times like I tried to kick and their coaches were like hey stop like do not they would not let us kick because if you don't know what you're doing you can actually hurt yourself you can actually like pull something you know like it's a real it's a real risk because like it's it's not easy to do if you don't know what you're doing like so I do I respect it from that standpoint my argument is just I feel like we would enjoy the game more if it wasn't if there was no kicking
Starting point is 01:04:25 but I think you have a soft spot for kickers PFT because you kick I do like it yeah I do like it well I did other stuff too but yeah I'm a kicker or if you're gonna be kickers you're not allowed to wear a helmet um so yeah Billy there's there's been a few guys that can do it but it's not it's not like it's super common across the league and these are all extra points no I'll tell you I think if you allowed more people to do it like if you like, poll the NFL players, I think there would be a larger amount than you would think. Just not nearly at the same level. True.
Starting point is 01:05:06 Okay. Did you see that Jill Biden has COVID? I did not see that. I didn't see that at all. I did it? I literally, I think they're trying to kill Joe Biden. I think the DNC is trying to kill Joe Biden so he can't run. I'm on board.
Starting point is 01:05:20 Do it through COVID. I'm on board. We're bringing it back just in time for the election, baby. Mask up. I know. Whoopie. Wait, if Joe Biden was trying to win the election
Starting point is 01:05:30 by having COVID come back, you think he'd give it to his wife? No, I don't know. I think the DNC is trying to kill Joe Biden. So how did the DNC give Jill Biden COVID? Well, there's an under the table deal.
Starting point is 01:05:45 Listen, you... Just pulling on these threads. You exit quietly and without issue. And we'll take care of you. Okay. Who's there? Who's their, uh, who's their backup who they want who they Gavin Newsom I mean he's being you see him out he's in every press conference he's you know talking about everything he's he's going to be the guy I think that the the Republicans are going after Obama because they're afraid he's going to try to run again well he can't what's the rule what does it say in the Constitution it does it say that you can't serve more than two terms or does it say you can't serve more than two consecutive terms it's terms total I know in in Georgia as governor you can serve third
Starting point is 01:06:25 three terms, but only two consecutively. So a couple guys have done two, taking one off and then come back. Come back to run. But, uh, yeah, you can only do two. I've heard Michelle Obama is being tossed out there. That's just, people have said that for years. They just, they just really like Michelle Obama. Yeah. It's going to be Gavin Newsom. It's going to be Newsom against hopefully Vivek, but probably Trump. Yeah. I say, I say Trump Hillary, run it back again. Hold on more time. Yeah. Loser leaves town. the hits. Losers executed. You think the D.N.C. is going
Starting point is 01:06:59 not want Joe Biden to run again? I really do believe that. Yeah. With COVID. Aside from Billy's comment. They're not going to kill him. But I genuinely do believe he will not be running in 2024. Oh, you're great. You haven't been paying attention to D&C, brother. They all in. I don't think they can be. I promise you. They want that motherfucker to run again and to be a goddamn skeleton behind the Ovalo, you know, and Ovaloffers.
Starting point is 01:07:27 I don't agree with it, but they weren't. They were smart. They'd run the R.K. What's that, Bill? Talk that libertarian shit, Billy. Because, I mean, did you see what RFK had to say about Black Rock? Yeah, he's had a lot of shit. Does he on a press run? He has a press run. Tell me,
Starting point is 01:07:45 tell me, what you're saying? Talk that shit. He wants to create a government program so that single families can buy houses and are able to compete against large corporations that are buying up all the real estate, especially single family homes. So like locking them with like 3% interest while being sponsored by the U.S. governments so they compete against these large real estate funds buying up all the single family houses.
Starting point is 01:08:11 Okay. So that's a great plan. If that's what the plan is, then it sounds good to me. But the problem you're going to run into, Billy, is that RFK Jr. is like a super popular candidate for president, just not on Democrat side. No Democrats like him. I know. It's just like...
Starting point is 01:08:28 Oh, yeah, for sure. My grandfather, my grandfather worked one job and had a house at my age and two kids. Like, what the fuck? Yeah. What happens to this country? It sucks. You're so close. It sucks.
Starting point is 01:08:44 We're with you. It is, it's like it's impossible for young people to own homes and to build up that equity. It's... What would you say? The main cause is, really? I think I do think it's definitely some monopolistic occurrences in I don't think our government's enforcing antitrust as it should we just disagree on why that is I think antitrust keeps the market more free and not control okay we can move on any other topics in the news did you see that that that building in New York, everyone's finally discovering, is an NSA hub that just looks at all the internet in phone traffic.
Starting point is 01:09:35 What building is that now? There's a 38-story building kind of down near the serious. Where's the serious building in New York City? It's on Avenue of the Americas somewhere. Yeah. Do you actually refer to 6th Avenue as Avenue of the Americas? Well, I didn't, I forgot which avenue it was. I just remember it was on Avenue of the Americas
Starting point is 01:09:56 because that's where I went to record my first podcast where I was able to pee before Ed Sharon could pee. Yeah, businesses that list their address is Avenue of the Americas and Chick-fil-A does it. The Chick-fil-A on 22nd and 6th does it, which I don't like. But yeah, come on, you're on 6th Avenue. Don't be pretentious. I forgot that.
Starting point is 01:10:15 I just remember when I was there to record the show, I was like, oh, Avenue of the Americas. I'm on Hollywood Row, baby. And then isn't it? I'm amongst the stars. it fifth fashion avenue yeah there's fashion avenue yeah so there's this uh cool building on 33 thomas street it's actually not a cool building it has zero windows it's totally brutalist architecture so why did you say cool bill why did you say cool building well it's like cool because it's
Starting point is 01:10:44 interesting because it's been sitting in the middle of manhattan it's been there since 1968 I think and 1969 and it was originally for like the core part of AT&T Long Lines Department that's that housed solid state switching equipment and it's new it's supposed to be built to withstand a nuclear bomb
Starting point is 01:11:08 it was Cold War but people are realizing like like this giant buildings like in downtown New York and they're all like the internet's finally been like holy fuck what is that building with no windows in downtown new york that just looks like a giant piece of concrete like what the hell is that like it's just been hiding in plain sight but the internet's finally caught on to it and it's been like rumored to be in nsa like basically where the nsa just reads all your messages and the government just like you know patriarchs all your
Starting point is 01:11:39 stuff but uh it's funny that like this gigantic building that's been in new york city people are finally like, what the fuck is that thing? Yeah, so, Billy, this was this was known like seven years ago. I know. But people, TikTok is finally finding it. That's what you're saying, right? I've known, I've known about this building because I grew up here.
Starting point is 01:12:04 So like, you know, it's kind of near Little Italy and you're like, what the fuck is that? But it's funny that like the new age internet's finding out about this random building. We should, we should do that. We should just do like TikTok and investigations where we uncover things that were previously reported in the in the mainstream media 20 years ago for the kids for the kids and be like look look at this new thing that we're just discovering y'all aren't going to believe what bill clinton did yeah yeah just have a calendar like what was in the news what what major investigations were in the news 20 years ago in 2003 if this podcast is still going in 2030 do you want to try to do like a a why to 2030 k
Starting point is 01:12:44 sure you know we should do Billy can you put on on TikTok do like a green screen the Bush administration it turns out lied to America about weapons of mass destruction the aluminum tubes that they say were being purchased those weren't for nuclear centrifuges at all those were designed for rockets and missiles that we knew that Saddam Hussein already had and when George Bush
Starting point is 01:13:11 and his CIA director said it was a slam dunk they knew it was a lie you should do one of those it would be big breaking news breaking news you should break it on break it on TikTok Mohammed Atta did not receive direct funding from the Iraqi government
Starting point is 01:13:30 for his attack on 9-11 whoa I like that I like that idea Billy discovers 20 year old news or no you could do a thing of like conspiracies that came true that like because all those things weren't true it's crazy because that was like a um at the time we all knew that that that he was full of shit i still have no idea how we ever got into iraq it's it's crazy the dixie chicks well i think they're now the chicks yeah they
Starting point is 01:14:04 were on it before any of us they got canceled they were they were one of the first victims of canceled culture because they went on stage and they were wearing t-shirts that said F-U-D-C for fuck you Dick Cheney. And yeah, then country music stations across America started like running over their albums with steamrollers and shit.
Starting point is 01:14:24 I remember I was in high school, I was in history class and the topic came up about weapons and mass instructions and I got in the argument with this kid about the same shit and he was like, you're a conspiracy there's and I'm like, running the lion. They're lying ass.
Starting point is 01:14:39 off. And I got kicked out. But then later, my English or my history teacher came just like, I side more with you, but like you're just really aggressive when you argue. And I couldn't have that in the class. I was like, I appreciate you. I'm a back dog. Yeah. But also like, what you should call that? What's the dude to be like? I was right. I don't even know that nigga name, bro. It was, fuck it. I was. I was 20 years ago, bro. Holy shit. I'm old. It was 20 years ago. But what's more aggressive, like threatening to invade a country and bomb them and kill like a million of their people? Or like being like, hey, you're full of shit. Shut the fuck up in history class. Well, that's what I was, I was like banging on him like that. I'm like, I was like, if it was your fashion, same kind of logic I was like, if it was your family over there getting bombed and you like, you would give a fuck then, wouldn't you? Like, because like we like to minimize the death toll and just think of it as numbers, but like it was a people dying. And so, like, I was, I took that angle.
Starting point is 01:15:41 Like, you don't give a fuck because it ain't your people. I was doing that shit. And she's like, Aaron, calm down. Yeah, you were right. It's actually, it's heartbreaking to think about. But at the time, I was in a political science class in high school. And there was a girl that was in our class that was from Iraq. And she would go back there, you know, once a year, once every other year, visit her family.
Starting point is 01:16:01 And once the beat of war, once the drums started going, where you could tell that, like, the Bush administration was going to invade Iraq. rack. She gave a presentation to our class. She's like, I want to show you like this is Iraq right now. And it looked like, you know, a normal foreign country, open marketplaces, you know, obviously she was like, we don't like Saddam Hussein. And he's a bad guy and he takes political prisoners and he's a tyrant. But this is what's going on over there. And if you start a war, you're going to destroy this entire country. And that's my family over there. And that's my friends over there. and they're real people. And she was like trying to convince us that like, hey, look before you leap and try to
Starting point is 01:16:42 think about what you're going to do. And our whole class was like, yeah, this is fucked up. Why are we doing this? This has nothing to do with the war on terror. This is going to be a really bad situation that we get ourselves into. And so, like, everybody knew that it was going to be a bad situation. But we just did it anyways. That's not our discussion for today.
Starting point is 01:17:00 I think we already did an Iraq war episode. It's probably the biggest foreign policy mistake in the United States history, but whatever. Did we ever talk about the one way, the rooms that only could be open from the inside, but no one was there? Like the Saddam torture apartments? Oh, I thought you were going to talk about Saddam's gateway to like the shadow realm or whatever. Yeah, but that's different. That's, you know, but like some of this like some scary shit was like U.S. soldiers would like bust into these like these torture houses and death like crazy. box springs with batteries attached and they could only be open from the inside but they were
Starting point is 01:17:42 locked when they got in they could only be locked from the inside but they're locked when they got in and just no one was there but there's just tons of atrocity and it was just like what the yeah bad dude so I'm saying all time all time evil dude very very bad person I'm not endorsing him I did read a very interesting book though that was written by the people that kept him hostage or not hostage kept him prisoner while he was awaiting his trial and subsequent execution like United States military people were in charge of making sure that he was secure because there are a lot of people that either wanted to free him or a lot of people that wanted to capture him and kill him in his own in his own country so the United States military actually
Starting point is 01:18:21 had to guard him around the clock and the small group of guards ended up I don't want to say becoming friends with him but they they like understood him and they were you know they saw the humanity in him as a bad person but they developed like almost this this weird relationship of respecting him as a human being while also and also understanding like where he came from and how he came to be in power and all the past like conflicts that you have in between the different parties in Iraq and how complicated things were it's a really fascinating book that was written by the people that got to know him and yes still a very a very bad guy and they'll they even say like yeah it was hard to reconcile that the same guy
Starting point is 01:19:04 that we were looking after was the same guy that you know gas the curds and all that stuff but it's an interesting interesting read and I lied I didn't actually read it I listened to it on tape do you guys think does that count if you listen to it does it absolutely does I read it did I read that book I read the book okay yeah I I don't even know that I would say like I would tell people like I don't read books I listen to them but like I can digest it so much like I don't want to sit down and read a book but I'll listen to one all day like while I'm working so if you're listening to this right you you read macrodosing today sure we put out weekly books yeah people argue people argue that when you listen to it your brain sometimes tones it out
Starting point is 01:19:48 but when you're reading sometimes you tone out the words like so like have you guys ever like read a whole page and like you're like reading for school and then you just realize like I didn't take in anything I just read I just read it I think there's different people learn differently like that's what I like that's that's what I used to loathe about school was that it's very like they teach a very certain way and I never learn like that I learn visually I learn audibly I don't really learn like hey study this chapter I can't do that I don't do that very well and so it took me time to understand how I learned. And so how I read now is I have to audibly read out loud. Like reading to myself is not the best way for me to learn in order to retain the information that I'm
Starting point is 01:20:36 that I'm reading. So like if I audibly read it and then if I have the audio book and the book, that's how I read now. Like I'll do both. I'll get both. And that shit is, that shit is beautiful. I really, I really learned like that. But like, I used to hate how they used to like and it makes you feel dumb. Like how one of my homeboys was a very smart cat, but he was shitty in school that he thinks he's dumb because he don't do well in school. I'm like, he's like, man, I'm just dumb. You're not dumb. That's just how they want you to learn. I hated that. That sounds like an awesome way to read a book. So you listen to it. Do you listen to the words as you're reading the words at the same time? Do you listen? Like when you read, do you read faster than the words
Starting point is 01:21:17 go? Do you have to slow your reading or you have to speed your reading up? Well, I think that's the beauty of it is because audibly it very rarely are you ever saying hey can you slow down talking you you retain it very well right and they do a good job in the audio books of enunciating very clearly and and and having an influx of word you know what I'm saying like the inflection they do a really good job of that and so it allows me to the beauty of reading and right I think reading is better than like watching a video is because it allows your imagination to come into play well audibly and visually if you if you both if you do both them it still allows you to do it but it's It's almost like it takes the responsibility off of you more so.
Starting point is 01:21:58 And have you ever been reading a book? You're like, what is this word? You have to stop reading and it's like all that that stuff. But it just makes it easier to comprehend when somebody else is reading it to you and you're reading at the same time. That's interesting. I've never thought about doing that. You're like reading in 3D almost.
Starting point is 01:22:14 Have you? What if you get a third book and the third book is Braille? You're feeling the book And it was six books That stimulate all senses And it's the same shit You're just immersed in words Yeah, every sense
Starting point is 01:22:29 Tasting What I forgot I was going to Okay Another hard pivot real quick We got to discuss this Because it's been popping off fam The NFL
Starting point is 01:22:45 Has taken our shit And used it as a marketing campaign for the 2023 season. And I'm proud to watch our baby grow the way it did. But in NFL
Starting point is 01:23:01 fashion, they did not credit the source and the source was a running back and they don't like to pay running backs. And it's just so on brand for the NFL, not to fuck with the originators and the originators are running back. It's just amazing to me
Starting point is 01:23:17 how they just have totally casted that off to the side. But hey, shout out to the fact that we was able to create a moment and now it's a multi-billion dollar company's marketing plan at the start of the season. That shit is amazing. Shout out to y'all. Kudos. Yeah. So, Aaron, at the very least, I didn't expect credit for it. I didn't expect it to be like a hat tip to macrodosing pod. Nah, yeah, but at least the script. But it would have been nice if they had had you in one of the commercials. Reach out. Reach out, bro. I was one of your employees for very long. Roger. But reach out.
Starting point is 01:23:50 Reach out and say, this was funny. It was brilliant. We want to make fun of it. I'm in. Or at least refund you for all your uniform, your sock violations. At the very least, I had one where I stiff arm to do. That was $10,000 in my finger. I caught in his face, man.
Starting point is 01:24:04 Something. Do something. That would be nice. It's crazy that someone's getting paid probably like six figures, something insane, just to rip us off. And like they're supposed to be coming up with original content. well yeah we gave it to them we lobbed it up for them they got it in i want to know like who that person is who's like we're just going to take this i want to know the exact individual
Starting point is 01:24:29 it's been brewing for a while because i remember the the dopest um i think i think they started at the at the beginning of like the offseason last year they started a lot of teams yeah schedule releases stuff like that i saw a lot of them a lot of them jumps and then the NFL just took it around with it. But what a moment in time that we were able to influence. I mean, I mean, think about that. It don't get much better than that, just like as a podcast, right, to have an influence on a billion dollar and a, almost, it's a global thing. Like, we, we influenced. We pushed. That's dope, man. We wrote the script for the NFL script. Facts. How about that? Thanks. All right. Well, get area on one of these commercials. I'm sure it's going to be going
Starting point is 01:25:11 all year long. It seems like it's something that they, they shot a lot of commercials for. So, get area involved just have arian you know maybe maybe as like a mentor for a rookie coming to the league and talking about how you you rehearse the script and practice all that stuff or stay on brand and don't pay running backs yeah choice is yours roger
