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. The fact that you said no twice makes me think yes. If Donnie went, I would go. Okay. Because then it's like... If Donnie jumped off the bridge, would you do it too?
Starting point is 00:00:17 Well, Donnie jumped to the bottom of the East River and I did it too. Oh, my God. Nice hat, Eric. Do you like it? It's giving Easter. Pretty cool hat. Is it? It's giving train conductor
Starting point is 00:00:31 It is also giving Oh yeah But it's giving pastels It's giving Easter a pun It's giving It's giving overalls Yeah It's like they made my
Starting point is 00:00:41 My hat out of either overalls Or like a suit that a guy Searsucker New Orleans would wear To a wedding yeah You're wearing a Searsucker hat Yeah I am That's a good boat hat
Starting point is 00:00:54 I had a good point When you get in the play pen Yeah I would rock this hat on a boat for sure I have a Searsucker. I used to have a Searsucker suit when I was little. Every white, rich white kid did. People in the South. I was like really little.
Starting point is 00:01:06 I love Seer Sucker. I love Sear Sucker. It's cool, but I feel like it's only big. You have to be like a one of the Huckabee's large adult sons to pull it off. All right. So, oh, I'm looking up the history of Sear because that's an interesting name. Yeah. Like what?
Starting point is 00:01:20 Seer? Who's getting sucked off? It's like Zubaz. It's like Zubaz for former slave owning families. Zoo. it's also called railroad stripe so you're right about the conductor thing okay it was a popular material in britain's hot weather colonies okay because it's light yeah so especially in the hot and humid south before air conditioning it was the mainstay of summer wardrobe that's interesting
Starting point is 00:01:48 huh it was oh it was the famous baggy pants of the confederate zuawaves wait what oh so it was like casual wear wait wait are those like was it there was a class of light infantry regiments that fought for the confederates that wore seers are you for them wait this is crazy i didn't know there was i didn't know the confederates used uh mercenaries yeah i guess so i mean they needed everybody to fight for them yeah huh start losing you can't you can't be picky about who's fighting for you there's a lot behind the confederacy also didn't they use uh for him didn't they use uh regiments as well? Yeah, I think this is one of them.
Starting point is 00:02:32 They were these Frenchies. The Frenchies came over and rocked Searsucker uniform? Yeah, they got their ass kicked. Yeah, their asses looked great doing it. The cheap adorable materials used to make Haversacks and even the famous baggy pants of Confederate Z-O-U-A-V-E-S is. Don't know how to pronounce it. Zouaves.
Starting point is 00:02:51 They were a class of light infantry regiments of the French Army. Huh. In linked to French North Africa. That's cool. Oh, well, you put it on you... Okay, interesting. So we just canceled your hat. Oh, yeah, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:03:04 I mean, it is a nationalist hat, so it should be canceled anyways. Yeah. They're dog shit. They're going to be so bad. There's nothing more depressing than going into a baseball season, just knowing that the team that you like is not going to be good ever. Do you see how many people were at the A's game last night? I did not.
Starting point is 00:03:18 So my big competition this year is just don't be as sad as the A's. If I can be slightly less depressing than the athletics, then I'll consider this year a win. They announced 3,400. It seemed like that was a bit exaggerated. But even if it really was 3,400, 11 of the 13 AAA games from last night out drew the A's. Why would you go to an A's game if you were an A's fan, knowing that they're going to leave? And can you imagine if they're-
Starting point is 00:03:44 It's a bunch of cucks that go there. If they're drawing 3,400 the first week of the season, what's it going to be in August? I don't know. Could they get a game under 1,000? I'm fading them all year. That's my project. Where are they going? probably Vegas possibly Vegas
Starting point is 00:04:00 yeah so Arias not like yes they are bad they're a regular very bad MLB team there seems like the A's every single year a couple years ago they weren't that bad when they had the COVID rules I think they did they make the playoffs or they almost made the playoffs they've been in the playoffs fairly recently but then they got rid of all their good players for close to nothing yeah and and they're publicly announcing plans to move the team
Starting point is 00:04:24 I don't know if that's official yet officially official I think they're still pretending they're trying to build a new stadium in Oakland. But they're publicly flirting with Las Vegas and basically saying we want to move. So they're not going to continue playing baseball in their current field. They've made that pretty clear. So basically the A's are the saddest franchise possible this year. And if you live in Oakland, why would you ever show up to support the team that's going to leave next year? What's up with Vegas still in all these Oakland teams?
Starting point is 00:04:52 Is there something behind that? Or what's it? Vegas is sick. I think, yeah, good point. A baseball game in Vegas is insane. I went to a Knights game in Vegas. Imagine baseball in Vegas. Knights games are a lot of fun.
Starting point is 00:05:04 I think the impetus, sick word, PFT, behind all these teams moving to Las Vegas is that we're changing how we look at gambling, sports gambling in America, whereas 10, 15 years ago would have been impossible to have a major league team there in any sport because people look, oh, well, sports gambling in Las Vegas is going to ruin everything. Well, now sports gambling is everywhere So it doesn't matter if a team is in Las Vegas As opposed to like Kentucky Which just legalized sports gambling
Starting point is 00:05:34 Or New Jersey or New York Which also has legalized sports gambling So I think that's the main reason why teams are like Well, there's a huge market right there People will come out to our games And we don't have to worry about people looking down their noses Because of the gambling aspect anymore I think that's what it's about
Starting point is 00:05:52 Love to say That's an interesting case study Just in general for the human species It's like You Kind of created Demand In a place where there's fucking nothing
Starting point is 00:06:07 You have to just In the middle and nowhere You created the demand It's like a hub for entertainment now So you've got the Raiders The Oakland A's coming in Vegas And gambling And it's like
Starting point is 00:06:16 There's no natural resources That make want To make humans want to live there it's the desert there's nothing that's wild i mean that's what a lot of the um oil states want to replicate like uh uh do but like wait where was the where's the world cup this year guitar like guitar is trying to do that just make you a destination for uh like just a vacation destination and Vegas is actually pricing itself out a lot like it's getting way more expensive
Starting point is 00:06:46 than it was and it like it might get to the point where it's cheaper to go to one of those states on the Arabian Peninsula than like going to Vegas because it might be so much cheaper to like stay in a super nice hotel over there because all the all those states know that natural resources is their base of their economy so if they can build a tourism economy like by having huge boxing matches there by having like tons of events there they can you know make them like create demand that wasn't there before just out of the desert and that was like Vegas is their model, but there's a little more, like, laws that they have that Vegas doesn't, where you can have a lot more fun still in Vegas.
Starting point is 00:07:29 Yeah, you can have way more fun. There's certain of the petrol states in the Middle East where you can have fun. Qatar is not one of them. I mean, I had fun, but it was, it was barely fun. I mean, now looking back. They don't allow gay people there, right? Yeah, not very welcoming of alternate lifestyles or different lifestyles. skin
Starting point is 00:07:49 yeah they do look they do look down on a lot of ethnicities no no I'm just saying just like open air skin oh just having your skin exposed well they they do look down on certain nationalities there too for sure
Starting point is 00:08:04 also there's just you have to like make an appointment in advance if you want to go drink a beer you know you have to like make a reservation to get into one of the four different bars that they have in guitar
Starting point is 00:08:15 they expanded the bar access a little bit during the World Cup up but it was still not very fun you had you definitely felt like you were being watched every time that you had a drink in your hand because you'd set it down and then the server would come right over and you might be like halfway done with your drink and they'd be hovering around you the entire time and it wouldn't look like you were even closer done they just like pick it up and scurry away and pour it away they're like afraid of beer it was like billy around money when he sees cash that's how people in guitar were around alcohol they'd see it and just be like staring at it like oh my god what's it
Starting point is 00:08:47 going to do. Am I going to catch alcohol by being in the same room as it? They looked at alcohol like cops in those videos. Look at fentanyl. But remember what Donnie was telling us or actually this may have been on extra dose that he had some alcohol and the hotel staff like freaked out when they found that they had left it in the hotel room because I think it's more that they can get into a lot more trouble than Westerners can if they're caught with alcohol. Yeah, that could be it. Yeah. So they're like they actually, there are consequences for them having alcohol. And then Donnie was like they may have like switch like poured some of the Jack Daniels out and then replaced it with water because and then they like stole the alcohol for themselves.
Starting point is 00:09:26 It's just like it's very much harder for them to get alcohol. So it's like a commodity that's very dangerous to them. Yeah. There was one time I was pretty sure that somebody had broke into our place in Qatar in the little apartment that me, Michelangelo and Donny had because I came back inside and it smelled like cigarettes inside after we'd been gone for the entire day. Huh. Which is like, that's, it's very weird.
Starting point is 00:09:49 There might have been someone in there, just inspecting, making sure. Making sure everything was above board. All your fun, you now look back on, you're like, oh, my God, like, that could have gone so much worse. Yeah, I think, yeah. I mean, Las Vegas is great because you've got the opportunity to just, like, fuck around for a weekend and getting some trouble and then leave. In Qatar, it's like the opportunity is you're not allowed to fuck around, but if you do fuck around, you might have to stay there for the rest of your life. also Vegas you can just eat like a glutton that's that was my favorite part of Vegas I was eating like six meals a day because I'd like pass a new like restaurant you know you
Starting point is 00:10:25 could eat you could eat your way around the world like you could eat something from every continent almost every country just like walking on the on the strip it was amazing yeah Vegas food is undefeated yeah you can go to Vegas and have fun by not even gambling or drinking Or yeah, I could have a great No, you can have a great sober weekend in Vegas Now you have to make sure that you don't go Hang out in places where people are getting hammered Because then there's nothing worse than being around
Starting point is 00:10:55 A bunch of drunk people when you're sober in my opinion But all right, take me through it Lock me through it. Okay, so you wake up at 7 a.m. in Vegas PFT No alcohol. What are we doing? Okay, so for breakfast we're going to the hash house a go-go And we're going to have a monster, monster plate Maybe they're Eggs Benedict that has a piece of fried chicken with a giant knife stuck through it. One of the best breakfasts you'll ever have in your life.
Starting point is 00:11:19 Now, are you allowed to be hung over for this day? Or is this day? No, we're not drinking in Vegas. Okay, I was asking if we were hungover. Because that would have made a difference. Actually, no, it would start it the same way. You go to the hash house and go-go. You get the giant fried chicken eggs Benedict, delicious.
Starting point is 00:11:34 Have a couple cups of coffee. Then after that, I'm going to send us over to the top. gun range and we're going to fire some automatic weapons and that's dope that place is sick it's a lot of fun after that we're going to go we're going to go play nine nine holes of golf nearby and then after that we're going to come back and we're going to go out to see laser tag we already shot guns but now I don't want to shoot other people I don't know about double guns you can go double guns I don't know about double guns application of Because why don't we just leave playing nine holes of golf and come back and go to top golf?
Starting point is 00:12:16 It's too much golf. You don't want to double golf. So maybe we need to do two sober days in Vegas. No, I'm just giving one great sober day in Vegas. And you come back and then you go see Cirque de Soleil. Okay. Who's playing? New York, New York.
Starting point is 00:12:30 I don't know. I don't know the different Cirque to Salas. Is the Michael Jackson Jones still there? I think it is, isn't it? You go to that? Yeah. You go see a show? No, but you know how...
Starting point is 00:12:40 I know you can do Vegas sober? because tons of fighters love hitting the strip after they weigh in and just pigging out before their fight Yeah, I would say Maybe after the show You go to one of those buffets
Starting point is 00:12:53 And you just eat everything Oh, yeah Okay, we're at like 4 p.m. No, no, dude Think about golf, golf took What, five hours? It's nine holes, nine holes Golf took two hours
Starting point is 00:13:07 Two hours And then, so now we're looking at Yeah, we're looking at about, like, four o'clock you get back from golf. And then, yeah, then you go out to a show, and then you pick out at the buffet. Also, you got to go to the wheel. Their London eye. That's cool. With the Ferris wheel?
Starting point is 00:13:27 Yeah. Yeah, you could jump off the top of the, what's it called? Oh, the sky thing? Yeah, shit. Yeah, there's roller coasters. You can hit some roller coasters, get some natural adrenaline. What's the name of that place? But 100% would recommend the open bar at that.
Starting point is 00:13:40 I crashed an F-18 into it the other day. Oh, the sky's the sky needle. Now that's Seattle. Something else. Stratosphere. Stratosphere, yeah. Stratosphere, yeah. I remember I was leaving a bachelor party in Las Vegas when I was 26 and I was maybe
Starting point is 00:13:55 the most hungover of ever been in my life going through airport security there. And the TSA agent, I'm going through and he's asking me questions. He's like, how was Las Vegas? And I was like, yeah, I didn't know how to like process or speak. He was like, did you jump off the top of the stratosphere? I was like, what? And he asked me like three times, and I had no idea what the stratosphere was. And I was just like, my mind, I don't know, maybe my mind is this broken that I'm not understanding the words this guy's saying.
Starting point is 00:14:23 And he's like, since I'm acting so weird, he's like, let me look in your bag. And he looks in my bag and I've got a tap for a keg in there. And he's like, what is this? I was like, it's beer. He's like, this isn't beer. What is this? I couldn't explain it. And so he thought that it was like some weird device.
Starting point is 00:14:42 And I had to try to explain to him using broken English because my brain is just the synapses aren't connecting whatsoever. And eventually I was like, it's a keg. It's for a keg. And then his buddy was like, yeah, you've never seen a keg tap before. And then the guy got embarrassed and put it back in and sent me in my way. Oh, you know what else you can do in Vegas? You can get like tons of IVs and like body like biohacking, utropic type stuff. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:05 People, people always do the IVs there. Yeah. They're like selling beach. 12 shots for like 15 bucks each. Hell yeah. You can really get jacked up. You get the opposite of hungover there. You could leave Las Vegas
Starting point is 00:15:19 feeling like a million bucks. Oh yeah. Dude, what are you talking about? Go to a spa. Sit in a Russian baths. Yeah. They've got great spas there. You can go to the pool. Caesar's Palace has a great spa. Oh, yeah, you can go hang out at state, what's it called stadium pool?
Starting point is 00:15:35 Yeah, man. It's got like a massive, massive sports. book and screen, and you can watch every game that's on from inside the pool. That might be cool. I just know pools in Vegas are super fun when you got them giant margaritas in there by
Starting point is 00:15:50 walking around and water, waist deep. That shit is just, that shit is kind of fun. Yeah, I think it's possible to have fun in Las Vegas over, but you can't be with a group that's getting hammered. Yeah, you've got to be intentional about everywhere you go and everything. You've got to plant it out. You can't just wander Vegas

I got home from a long trip, wanted to relax a little bit before I went to bed. I had a 3Chi gummy. I played a little bit of guitar. I'm starting to learn slide guitar, which is something I've never done before.
Starting point is 00:17:13 And 3Chi is helping me. It's helping me along the way. I'm consuming all the YouTube tutorial videos on slide guitar, and 3Chi makes it, it makes it pretty easy to follow along, actually. I think I'm getting good at slide guitar thanks to 3Chi. 3Chi is wonderful because of all the things in life. One of the best is getting high, wherever you want, whenever you want, without the paranoia of consuming some sketchy black market punk.

It's kind of creepy stuff. But I think you guys will like it.
Starting point is 00:19:13 What else do we want to get into before we jump into Project Sunshine? We got the playlists. We got the playlist from Arian and Big T exchanging breakup song playlists. Or as Big T put it, songs that will make you miss bitches you've never met. Is that right? Not all of the ones on there or that, but if there are those on there, that that's the that's the high mark yeah that's an a that's an a plus and then arian you also put together your list of breakup songs are they more angry are they more like i miss you and i want to cry uh more of the
Starting point is 00:19:52 ladder yeah cry me a river j t love that oh when i i looked online and i i tagged you in it arian i found the chris cornell cover of prints nothing compares to you did you get a chance to listen to that? No, I usually mute things you tag me in because all your ponies blowing up my feet. You got to listen to that. I'm not kidding. It's incredible. You'll love it.
Starting point is 00:20:16 I'm trying to send it to the group. I got you. Okay. I'm trying to do your favor here. And then I also while I was looking up covers of nothing compares to you, I don't know how this one slipped through the cracks. Miley Cyrus does a combination of wrecking ball and nothing compares to you. And it's fucking amazing.
Starting point is 00:20:32 She does? She's incredible. Yeah. Just a great. Well, no, this is what makes me mad. I respect Miley Cyrus as a musician, first of all. She's one of the greatest singers that we have in our generation. She is legit good. And this happens a lot, whether it's like the Jonas Brothers, who maybe I'm not like a big fan of theirs or whatever.
Starting point is 00:20:52 But when somebody becomes a child star, they're always looked at in that teeny bopper mindset where it's like, oh, Harry Styles sucks. He was in one direction. And you love Harry's style. It was a project band that was put together by managers. but if you give kids that are very talented musicians enough time to like learn music and be around music they're going to fall in love with it and they're going to evolve as artists and end up being really good
Starting point is 00:21:16 and Miley Cyrus is hold on hold on you said Miley Cyrus is one of the greatest singers of this generation I think she is Erin you need to define a generation because I'm like my age yeah how old is Miley she's like 20 no chance I think she's like, no, I think she's like 29, 30. She's 30. So. What's 30 with her generation, right? Who's 30?
Starting point is 00:21:43 Ariana Grande will wipe the floor. Okay. They will wipe the floor with Miley Cyrus, Beyonce, Jennifer Hudson. No, those are different. That's the generation before. How old is Beyonce? What, 36? What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:21:56 No, Beyonce's like, I think pushing 50. Okay, Beyonce's not pushing 50. I bet she's 40. Beyonce's old in my eyes. Beyonce's 41. Okay, she's pushing 50. She's not pushing 50. All right, man.
Starting point is 00:22:10 Okay, Erin. Here's how I'll break it down. I would say, I would say 10 years older and 10 years younger. You get 20 years and that's like a generation, right? Then she's not in the top 10. Maybe not in the top 20. Disagrears. She has a really good voice.
Starting point is 00:22:25 I think you, I think you might be sound. I'm not saying she doesn't have a good voice, but there are divas in this generation dog that can blow, man. Ariana Grande is also talking. Yeah, she's a great singer too. I don't know why we have to be disrespecting one woman to build another woman up here. I think they're both good. I'm not the one calling the women bitches.
Starting point is 00:22:46 I'm just saying that's big tea. I'm just saying I'm just saying to call her one of the greatest singers of her generation is a wild taste. When y'all are saying singers, are you talking about purely technical ability to sing or artist as a whole? Like the songs they put out? I'm not including the songs because a lot of songs are written by somebody else. So you can't always count that. That's a different category. So you're just saying how well they sing.
Starting point is 00:23:13 I'm saying as a vocalist, she's one of the best vocalists of her generation. Point blank. What's the cutoff of one of the best? Like, is it like top 10, top 20. Top 10. She's definitely top 10. She's top 10. Tell me, go, I'll wait.
Starting point is 00:23:29 I will. Hold on. I wait. Don't wait. Continue to talk. I'm going to compile my list of 10. And you're giving me 20 years of younger plus older? I take 25 to 35 is a better stretch.
Starting point is 00:23:42 Sure. Is it just women? Yeah. Okay. Axel Rose is the greatest vocalist of all time. That's just recorded. Okay. Can you mute him?
Starting point is 00:23:51 All right. Can you mute him, Maddie and can you meet him? Axel Rose is the greatest vocalist of all time. We've been over this. He has the greatest vocal range out of any singer. Mariah Carey. No, he beats out Mariah Carey. Does he?
Starting point is 00:24:01 Yeah. We've talked about this. And then you guys are like, oh my god that's an insane stat Axel Rose I don't want to sound like I'm disrespecting Axel Rose by saying he's not the greatest singer of all time
Starting point is 00:24:11 that's not disrespect that's just saying it's greatest vocal range Axel Rose good singer very good singer Axel Rose has an incredibly diverse vocal range of five octaves and five semitones he can sing very low notes starting from F1 and very high notes to BB6 okay so five octaves which Mariah Carey's range
Starting point is 00:24:29 Can Axel Rose sing? Yep I want you to look up Mariah Carey's vocal range He's greater than, yeah, it's better than Mariah Carey's. Can you look up Mariah Carey's vocal range for me in octaves? I'm looking, we've been through this already. Can you look at it up? I'm looking up right now. And it's, Mariah Carey five octaves, F2 to G7, Axel Rose five octaves, F1 to B, B6.
Starting point is 00:24:55 Don't know what any of that means. F1 to B flat six. So that either, yeah, so Axel Roses, would be slightly higher by a minor third. Yeah. That's pretty insane.
Starting point is 00:25:09 Yeah. I mean, it's very close. Have you heard rocket queen? It's like nearly identical ranges. Yeah, but have you heard Rocket Queen?
Starting point is 00:25:16 I've heard a lot of Guns and Rosa songs and I'm here to tell you Axel Rose is a very, very good singer. I agree with that. But to say that he's the best singer
Starting point is 00:25:24 of all time. Well, I think just the most athletic singer. Okay, there we go. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Like, in terms of ability. Combine numbers.
Starting point is 00:25:31 Yeah. Gotcha. that's what I respect yeah he's he's he's the number one uh just in terms of well who's the guy that that got the island for running was it john ross yeah the defensive back ran like a four to one or something like that but he wasn't i thought that was a promotion by like adidas and he was wearing Nike cleats or something so he's ineligible get it yeah oh i think what they did was the next year one of those companies said we're offering an island to whoever can beat this time but you have to be wearing our cleats what happened to john ross i'm not
Starting point is 00:26:08 sure arian how's that list coming um compiling you continue okay i'm going to send you the chris cornell into the group chat and then you should listen to this chris cornell is up there with one of the greatest rock vocalists of all time i'd say dicky barrett from the mighty body boston's probably up there too most people agree with that oh another great cover hurt by Johnny Cash he covers 9-inch nails Yeah have we had this discussion before Covers that are better than the original
Starting point is 00:26:39 Have we? Maybe like two years ago We just don't remember Because there's a clear 1-1 in my book What's your 1-1? Smash Mouth covering Under Pressure Originally by Queen and David Bowie
Starting point is 00:26:53 I'm just kidding It's not awful But it's Smash Mouth doing Queen Which doesn't translate it's uh Jimmy Hendricks all along the Watchtower Oh yeah To the point where Bob Dylan said yeah
Starting point is 00:27:07 That's Jimmy's song now Yeah Dude Jimmy Chris Stapleton Tennessee whiskey Who originally sang that? That's a song from like the 80s I did not know that Let me Google it
Starting point is 00:27:19 George Jones did it But his was a cover too Oh you know what else Atlantic City Bruce Springsteen Yeah the band's version is better No Bruce Springsteen's cover No, Bruce Springsteen wrote it The band covered it
Starting point is 00:27:34 Really? Yeah The one that starts out with a mandolin going Da-na-na-da-na-da-na-da-da-na-da-na-da-na-da-na-da-na-da-na-na. Yeah, that's the band. The band covered it? That's the band doing the cover, yeah. David Allen Coe originally performed Tennessee Whiskey in 1981.
Starting point is 00:27:49 Hmm. And then George Jones did it in 1983. I did not know that that was a cover. Yeah. As far as I'm concerned, that's Chris's song. Precisely. He does another, he does a cover of nothing compares to you also, which is great. I've only seen it live, but it's, it's fantastic.
Starting point is 00:28:06 Just one of the best songs ever. Oh my God, I thought. Yeah, Billy. Whoa. Yeah, that's the band that you love. I don't know the band. I like the band. Cripple Creek.
Starting point is 00:28:18 Adam Sandler does a pretty good cover of Werewolves of London by Warren Zevon, like a legitimately good cover. And Kid Rock does a very good cover of Werewolves of London. That's what, that's what I love about that song. all summer long. It's just the biggest rip-off of everybody else. Kid Rock covered two of the all-time greatest songs ever inside of one song. Which made...
Starting point is 00:28:40 Which made for another hit song. Which, because it was the first time I ever heard any of those tunes. I remember hearing it for the first time. I was like, this is awesome. Like, I love this song. And then, like, I played it for my parents and they just got irrationally mad. They're like, wait a second. This is Werewolves of London.
Starting point is 00:28:55 And this is Sweet Home Alabama. Speaking of Kid Rock, did you see Kid Rock, he shot a case of Bud Light the other day? Yeah, that was so funny. I only learned about this new boycott because of recurring guest on Macrodosing, Nick Adams, who posted about it. He did a video the other morning where he was standing outside of an Anheuser-Bush brewery. And he was like, it gives me no satisfaction to announce that we have, as alpha males across America, we've decided. that Anheuser-Busch is no longer for the American people. We will be boycotting all Anheiser-Bush products,
Starting point is 00:29:34 no matter how cold the beers are, no matter how hot the waitresses at Hooters are that are serving, said beers to Americans, Anheiser-Bush, you are canceled. And I didn't know what was going on. I was like, what, I need to do some digging into why Nick is so upset about beer. And I guess Budweiser or Bud Light made a can that has a, a trans person.
Starting point is 00:29:58 They sponsored a trans person. Dylan Mulvaney. She's a transgender TikToker who's documented her journey on TikTok, who I am obsessed with. I love her. So they do these types of cans. It's not just for her. It's for a bunch of... I guess.
Starting point is 00:30:13 They have different custom cans that come out. I just saw this with the whole this news thing, so I didn't know. But I think they did it with different role models or something. Well, as a person, not to brag, who's been up... put on a beer can before by Coors Light. It's not just us. Like they do a lot of these kind of one-off sponsorships with people. The Bud's making the bros gay.
Starting point is 00:30:38 Yeah. And so Nick, I guess, is furious that Anheuser-Busch has done this. And so he's no longer drinking Bud Light. I'd like to welcome Nick to the Coors Light family. That's just mountains are blue. Mountains are blue, Nick. But imagine imagine getting that mad at what's on a beer. can.
Starting point is 00:30:57 There are rainbow mountains too. Don't tell him that. All right. Don't tell them. Good. Good. Great. I like him.
Starting point is 00:31:03 Also, you know what my favorite new trend is? Is people who go into Target and then have their friends record them as they find different, like, children's clothes that have rainbow patterns on them. Yeah. Do you think they get embarrassed? Like, do you think the friend that has to record them gets embarrassed? No, the friend's in on it. It's kind of like an Instagram boyfriend, except it's just like cancel culture. You cancel culture.
Starting point is 00:31:27 buddy that comes along with you and they're just like okay all right this is look i found one with a rainbow on it let's talk about how satan is inside target right now satan is inside target yeah and then how did kid rock get involved uh kid rock got involved because he's mad that there's a trans person on a beer can and so he he then shot he then shot his case of beer uh but i think nick adams says i don't know if he's gone to this length because nick has been instrumental in uh the m and ms boycott, which was a resounding success because they made the green Eminem less hot. And then they also had an all female bag of Eminem's, to which he replied that he wanted them to have an all male bag of Eminemes in response. So Nick's been able to get his voice out there because I think
Starting point is 00:32:14 he said, we're going to buy all the Eminemes that we can and then throw them away. And so I don't know if he's going to be doing that with Bud Light, just buying up all the Bud Light so that Kid Rock can drop like a cluster bomb on it but yeah kid kid rock's upset about that um can i tell a kid rock story that involves my dad yes dad dog yes my dad um i hope he doesn't listen to this 10 years ago he went to a kid rock concert with like a ton of our like family friends and um was wearing like you know you guys met my dad was wearing like green shorts that had little sailboats on them you know the vibe and he got a temporary, like huge tramp stamp
Starting point is 00:32:57 of a Jim Beam logo. And it lasted for like two weeks. On his lower back? On this whole back. That guy likes to party. Yeah. Now I really want to party with your dad. And I was like, so 10 years ago, I was 13 or 14,
Starting point is 00:33:16 and it was just this huge, I have the picture of it. And it's just this huge Jim Beam logo on his back. And I didn't know who Kid Rock was because I was 12, but he came home from the Kid Rock concert with his green sailboat shorts and a huge gym beam tattoo. Was that in Cleveland? Yeah, it was. Would that have been 2015? 13.
Starting point is 00:33:36 Okay, gotcha. Why? Did he do something in Cleveland? I saw Kid Rock in Cleveland in 2015. Oh, really? Did you put a back tattoo on someone? It was at the RNC. Okay.
Starting point is 00:33:46 Yeah, so right after the first presidential debate where he called Jeb Bush Gay pretty much, they did a concert. afterwards for the RNC and Kid Rock was a headlining performer he was rocking to like Make America Great Again hat he was there to support Trump basically and I went to go to that concert I was actually blown away that Kid Rock is a pretty good musician he played every instrument on stage there was one song where he like jumped around to the turntables and he was like he's smoking a giant blunt and drinking whiskey as he was scratching on the turn turntables he played bass he played guitar he played drums and he's he's a pretty good musician overall but the thing that stood out the most to me from that show was i think
Starting point is 00:34:27 they were playing american badass that's what is my dad's tattoo said oh no shit right american dadass that's how i would describe your dad is the most dad person ever i mean that with all due respect um but during the song uh as like the the heavy part kicked in on the giant screen behind him it showed one of the Twin Towers collapsing. Oh, yeah. And then, and then Kid Rock's face coming out of the fire and being like, just screaming.
Starting point is 00:35:00 And then he started to just rock out on stage and the crowd went nuts. And I took my camera out to try to get a picture of it because it was so unbelievable. Like, I don't know what message he was trying to convey that Kid Rock was inside Tower 2. No, I understand. That's Phoenix from the flames.
Starting point is 00:35:17 That's like Phoenix Rising. where American badass is coming from the from the ashes of 9-11 I guess so but it was I mean it was 15 years after the fact that's and it still felt like that was too soon that's that's that's neocons propaganda playing the hits I guess so it was a weird image it was a very very weird image imagine you're like thinking like psychedelics and you're just watching that in the background yeah there's there's one dude out there that um I was with espion at the time, I believe. And so he was working with the RNC and he got me into that show.
Starting point is 00:35:53 And then every like couple years, he'll like hit me up, I think on Twitter and just DM me or tweet at me and be like, yo, I'm the guy that you saw Kid Rock with at the art. I wonder if he's listening to this right now. If you are, shout out you for getting me into that show. What a time that was. So getting back to when you were talking about those guys with the rainbows in Target, and like seeing demon imagery.
Starting point is 00:36:18 So Donnie and I went down to the Trump arraignment thing just to witness some history. I wasn't going to go alone. Donnie was like, we should just go. I was like, okay, if Donnie goes, then we can make some content. It won't make me look like I'm doing like actually there's support or be against. But it was wild. If the courthouse had been overrun, would you have gone inside as a journalist? As a journalist, I did have.
Starting point is 00:36:47 no no the fact that you said no twice if donnie went I would go okay because then it's like if donnie jumped off a bridge would you do it too well donnie jumped to the bottom of the east river and I did it too
Starting point is 00:37:02 no because then it would be like I don't know but it was the actual thing was once we got there but we had a pretty scary moment going into the protest what happened it was this was pretty wild. It was
Starting point is 00:37:19 looking back on it, low-key was a Mark Wahlberg moment. Okay. So basically what happened was, and the reason why I was mentioning those rainbows was because a lot of people, I realized who were there protesting on either side,
Starting point is 00:37:36 they were a lot of those saints, like, look at these imagery, look at this imagery, and a bunch of, like, scribbles, and they were just like seeing patterns everywhere. Yeah, like numerology. Yeah. But that's what just reminded me. On her way, down. So like Donnie and I were going to do an extra dose. Mad Dog and McKenzie were sitting in the room with us. And we all sat down and, you know, Donnie was like, oh man, look like, look at, look at the protest. Like I was like, yeah. And I was talking about how it was a nice day outside. So Donnie was like, you want to just go to the protest thing? I was like, yeah, fuck it. Let's do it. Because like instead of podcasting. So he jumped on the train. We got shadowed, uh, shout out Zupy and the guys who came. Um, um, we're on the train we're going down and we're like okay this is gonna be hilarious
Starting point is 00:38:21 it's gonna be so many like crazy people there like hopefully we like can interview like a Q& shaman type or some like crazy you know person on the other side and anyway this woman runs into our train car and goes I can't believe that guy was dressed like that like I have a really bad feeling about this and we're like what the fuck and we don't see the guy because he's in the other car and this lady's like talking to the other woman she's like I think like what do it like what do we do like he really was up to something like he was and then i heard you talking about something about a backpack i was like what the fuck so i was like okay let me see this guy like let's see if like he's like dressed as a clown or something because i didn't know if it was
Starting point is 00:39:00 like a mad dog subway situation where it was a guy dressed in a scary mask like trying to fuck with people on the subway because you see that a lot but then we were talking was like shit whoever that guy is he's he's probably headed to where we're going so anyway we get off at the stop we're supposed to get off at the other guy gets out and we see what he looks like for the first time ski mask airsoft mask body armor type stuff underneath a sweatshirt you can tell black gloves completely covered so my first thought is oh fuck like that guy looked very you know intimidating one like look like 100% if you were going to do like a mass shooting you like dress up like that
Starting point is 00:39:46 in my mind I was like holy shit like this lady was talking about it so we're walking towards it and this is all going to be on stool scenes so check it out because it was fucking ridiculous and he walks out he's got a backpack on and then I'm like okay you know what he's probably just one of those paranoid
Starting point is 00:40:02 people who know about the CCTVs in all of the metro stations subway stations that like can do facial scanning technology and he's probably just trying to not end up on a list or if he's already on a list he doesn't you know if something January 6 happens he just doesn't want to get caught
Starting point is 00:40:20 by cameras and be identified anyway that that's what I was thinking it's like okay so then this guy all of a sudden we get out of the subway and he starts like walking very fast and almost running like passes and I'm like what the fuck's going on
Starting point is 00:40:36 like I'm watching this guy I'm kind of tweaked out by him everyone else is sort of like ignoring it but I keep watching him and then all of a sudden he starts like looking around and he starts grabbing like all over himself and he's wearing thick gloves yeah thick leather gloves so he's like trying to get into his pocket I'm like what the fuck what's he like what's he getting like what's he getting like what's he grabbing for and I was like if this guy starts so I start saying like yo guys watch like watch that guy if he like is about to take off
Starting point is 00:41:03 his backpack like I think we got I think we could tackle him because the scariest thing was he then took off his glove and under his leather gloves were plastic surgery So we all remember who did that on this podcast Brian Coburger. Oh, right. He wore plastic gloves to make sure his DNA didn't get anywhere. So anyway, I'm like, holy fuck. What this guy's trying to hide like, it's one thing to try to just disguise your whole appearance, but this guy doesn't want to have his DNA anywhere. But then we're all freaking out. The lady who we just got off the train with is following him calling the police. And then I. I'm at the back of the group. Donnie's pushing forward towards the guy. The lady's like, did you? So then Donnie actually starts talking to him. And he's just like, are you going to the arraignment?
Starting point is 00:41:53 And then he's like, yeah, which way is it? And Donnie points him towards the arraignment. And I'm freaking out. The lady goes, does he say, what do you say what he's doing? And so she's calling the police and running up to police officers. So I'm thinking, did she see something in his backpack while he was on the subway that we just don't know about? Like, is this guy like about to? So I start freaking out.
Starting point is 00:42:14 And talking to, like, Zupi, I was like, Zubi, like, this guy, like, this might be, like, situation. Like, anyway, I'm trying to stay actually closer to him because I rather- Keeping an eye on him. No, because it was, if you see the video, it's like, like, my heart was pounding. I was like, in the world we live in, like, someone targeting an event like that wouldn't be the craziest thing. And I know I'm probably sounding like extra tweaked out right now, but- It's a weird, it's a weird outfit to put on at any time.
Starting point is 00:42:44 And if you're going to like a super politically charged event like that was. Yeah. I understand being a little skeptical of that guy. But anyway, what I realized now looking back, so this one went up to multiple police officers on the way there and none of them would do anything. So I was like, holy shit. Like no one's like if this, if this guy wanted to, if he was someone on a list who was trying to avoid the CCT's facial scanning technology that would indicate like the anti-terrorism network in the, um, In New York City, he's pretty insane, more probably insane than we know that they can, like, know anyone who's in the city or out of the city. I agree with that.
Starting point is 00:43:21 So, I don't know. In the moment, I was like, are we about to walk in right after this guy and he's about to, like, whip something out and do something crazy? Anyway, Donnie didn't care. Real quick. I've heard, I don't know if they actually use this, if this is implemented yet, that I've heard that there were software that they were trying to program that could instead of facial recognition, because you can get around that with a mask. Yeah. they're trying to do walk recognition because everybody walks in a very specific
Starting point is 00:43:47 unique way that's very it's like a fingerprint so they can like analyze your gate in how you're walking and they'll be like oh that's that's Billy his biomechanics yeah like you see the smoothest walker ever and it's like that's Aaron Foster that's probably in the new TikTok app
Starting point is 00:44:03 app Bill yep not app yep analyze people's walks what I realize though now looking back that's got to be that's got to be Stephen Hawking So once I was watching this guy the whole time because I was tweaking out and I like couldn't focus on anything else at that moment because I was like I don't know I was just on high alert and he was in the crowd and what I realized at the end of the day was when he was he didn't know where to go when he got out of the subway he didn't know the directions because think about it if you're in a big mask yeah you get disoriented and you have bad eye like bad visual recognition because you're in like ski goggles and like a paintball mask he was trying to reach for his. phone but couldn't do it with the giant gloves he was on but in the moment it looked like he was like about to reach for something like around them but once he got into the thing he was just
Starting point is 00:44:54 taking videos and walking around and i mean it totally sketched me out in that first couple seconds because his lady was like going nuts and she was speaking in a different language like she had an accent so i couldn't really tell what she was trying to communicate yeah so So the guy, you kept an eye on him, and he only had a camera. But yeah, he had a camera in his backpack. But in the moment, like, check out the stool scenes, and we're going to do a macrodosing YouTube on it. It's kind of funny.
Starting point is 00:45:24 You see me just tweaking out in the moment, being like, like, like, so at one point I go to Dynne, like, I think it's just easier if we fuck him up and just ask questions later because it's way worse if something actually bad happens. And Dany's like, yeah, I just told him where to go. So, like, I'm almost like accomplice. I was like what the fuck And then Donnie's like You can't just fuck a guy up for having a ski mask
Starting point is 00:45:44 Yeah I mean Donnie makes a good point Yeah but I know it's pretty ridiculous But in the moment if you watch it It gets pretty like he Because why would this guy be going Way later when we were going We were late to the thing He's showing up late
Starting point is 00:45:56 And it was a sketchy situation If you buy a ski mask I'm not saying that you're about to commit a crime But I have to imagine that A majority of ski masks are not sold to people Who are about to go skiing right It wasn't exactly a ski mask. I can't really describe
Starting point is 00:46:11 what it was, but it perfectly like covered his whole it was almost like an air soft mask, but it just it looked like intimidating as fuck and he was just I, that was my first time ever going to something like that. So I don't know if that's
Starting point is 00:46:27 typical. Like but it was just weird. But once we got there, something I noticed there was two groups. There was the, you know, they basically divided the protesters perfectly. Great job by NYPD. And honestly, once we got to the event and saw the police presence, I felt
Starting point is 00:46:43 more comfortable, but... Were there horses? No horses. I love it when the cops show up on horses. My grandfather was a mounted police officer in my PD, yeah. But felt way more safe, but
Starting point is 00:46:56 like, they totally organized it perfectly, but I already described the Q&ON right wing pool that were all there. It really reminded me of like a grateful dead concert like the lot of a Grateful Dead concert because there's all these older just like people with like tons of badges and shit and yeah they're like like like Facebook poison yeah yeah yeah I was just like looking around there was like what the fuck and there was all these people there
Starting point is 00:47:21 just handing out pieces of paper with just tons of scribbles of just like their writings in pamphlets I was just like what the hell it's like everybody there is trying to get everybody else to subscribe to yeah their substack yeah it was just it was weird uh we were trying to see if like Trump was gonna like come and speak and like take some videos I love the AI images that came out of that spider I was sitting next to spider as this was all going down in the airport yeah yeah spider had he was just like refilling the clip with different Trump AI prison images like there was one of Trump in a prison cell reading the Bible very intently there was one of him shirtless in the yard yeah tattoo where he had like a six
Starting point is 00:48:02 back it was all jacked up and then all the ones where he's like running away from the cops and they can't catch him or like he's fighting the cops. There were a bunch. It was a great day for fake images. Yeah. It was also a great day out. I'm so glad we did class outside.
Starting point is 00:48:18 It was a beautiful day. It was just a beautiful day. Field trip. Yeah. It was actually, it was really like, I don't know, everyone was actually way more peaceful and agreeable than depicted.
Starting point is 00:48:29 I would like to see a remake of the longest yard, but it's Donald Trump in prison. And he runs for awarding. against the warden and all the guards end up voting for him I bet he could do that I bet Trump could actually take over a prison that he's I don't know this for a fact
Starting point is 00:48:47 but I would imagine that the vast majority of prison guards in America probably were Trump supporters is that fair to say I mean who is more pro or against the military industrial complex I mean the prison industrial complex I don't know this for a fact
Starting point is 00:49:04 but I would imagine that that Trump was yeah I don't they might like know where to vote you know like who who sponsors the best bills yeah like they probably have a union a prison like a prison guard
Starting point is 00:49:17 oh for sure they do that's like this guy actually will vote to keep to get more funding for private prisons or so I think that that's one of the worst things that we do in America is privately owned prisons yeah I mean it's
Starting point is 00:49:32 the immersion of it was directly after the the war on drugs bill basically right that made all the drugs illegal i just don't get how privately owned prisons are legal there will go there's government contracts because there's older prisons that are still federal prisons like the privately owned prisons are more like for specialized offenders i think yeah like who's going into like how do you get into a privately owned prison and is it worse for you or better for you it's probably worse because there's no like standards yeah like when you go to a private school versus a public school?
Starting point is 00:50:07 Yeah. Well, it's a business. They're trying to make money, so they're cutting costs at any available turn. How do you make money from a prison, though? You get contracts to build the prison. You get contracts for the food, for all the infrastructure
Starting point is 00:50:23 that goes into it, to pay the guards, things like that. So you're getting contracted for all of that? You can get a government contract for orphanages, too. But that's like a like objectively nicer thing. Right, right. But they
Starting point is 00:50:39 claim that by being able to privatize it and have a for-profit company running it, that they're able to do it more efficiently and cost it costs the government less money to pay this organization that has experience in like building prisons and running prisons, and give them a check.
Starting point is 00:50:55 I don't know how much prisons cost. Let's say hypothetically here's 50 million dollars to build this prison and run it for the foreseeable future. And if the federal government tried to do it themselves because of all the red tape, they would end up spending $100 million doing the same thing. But the danger is when you give it to a private organization, they run everything for profit. So they keep a much, much closer eye on all the expenditures.
Starting point is 00:51:22 So you start to see cutbacks in like safety, maintenance, health care, food, things like that. So it becomes just an awful, like prison's a bad place in general, but they just run it into the ground. Okay. So something like, and also then the argument is if you're paying somebody money to do it and they're running it for a profit, they have an interest in doing more business and the best way to do more business is to get more prisoners. And then they lobby for laws that are harsher and not necessarily in the interest of the American public, but more so in the interest of themselves. So like stricter drug laws or things like that because more prisoners is better for that. Hey, it's just well said. I was just well said.
Starting point is 00:52:05 It's honestly, it's gross that we have private prisons in America. Yeah. Is that a new concept? Is that like not a, like that came into being more recent? I don't know when it starts. I know that we've had more conversations, but it's been more prominent in the last 20 years. So private prison population is increased by 32% since 2000. Yeah, 1980 right after the war on drugs was declared.
Starting point is 00:52:29 So it's increased, would you say 32% since. 2000. Okay. But however, the private prison population has actually decreased by 16% since 2012. That's really fucked. I don't like that. Yeah, but it's what's, you know, goes behind a lot of these laws. Aaron, how are we looking on the... Are you slowly becoming leftist? Is that... I think that... I think most sensible people can agree that privatized prisons are, are not good also privatized orphanages kind of run under the same system yes yeah that's yes i've done i've looked at into that new york state you can get two hundred dollars a night to house orphans so if you privatization in general is sounding well i think for social ah got you i just comes the business
Starting point is 00:53:24 though i just don't get i think we shouldn't make businesses out of stuff that should for social services yeah yeah right so what how are they trying to make more orphans if there's a bit if there's a lot of money more wars well if you put if you put their parents in prison yeah good point they're working together yeah connecting a lot of dots here whoa whoa that's so fucked yep are orphanage is still like a thing though i mean i know they're a thing but i feel like i don't hear about orphanages as much well because because they're private aren't as many orphans anymore because less people give up their kids to adoption. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:54:06 Because there's other alternatives. Gotcha. Are you just saying abortion? Yeah, you can say that. Yeah. I don't know if, I don't know what, that's it. I don't know what the stats behind if we actually have fewer orphans or if we just hear about them less. Right.
Starting point is 00:54:18 But there were. For a while, Oliver Twist. Annie? People used to like abandon babies at the doorsteps. Yeah. They're actually in Italy, in Florence. There was this orphanage that basically had a drop box for babies. They have that in the United States.
Starting point is 00:54:37 They do? In certain fire departments, there's like a door that basically you can put the baby in and then it opens up into the fire department and you get an alarm that says that there's a placement. Yeah, so you don't have to, so the baby stays like doesn't get left out in the cold. And that you like you don't have to make contact with anyone. actually a really totally different sphere of top kind of emotion like on a lighter side there's this prankster who's dropping off a lifelike baby dolls at frat houses in like in like a baby carrier and getting their reactions where it's like hung over dude opens the door and just like
Starting point is 00:55:15 holy shit someone dropped off a baby and they like pick it up rat baby and like before and they like call their people before and then so they're like don't touch the baby don't touch the baby don't baby and before they realize it's fake they're like these dudes being like what do we do right that's probably how they really learn about each other like if they're like do we take this baby in mm-hmm are they just are they good enough people so it just comes down the back I'll take the baby yeah that person's a good dude yeah yeah it's like it's like when Aryan's brother volunteered like I'll leave I'll pack up my stuff it's like it was a joke it was a joke but now we know that you're right or die he earned his honor
Starting point is 00:55:55 Yeah. At one time I pulled a prank on my friend. I bought her one of those fake scratch-off tickets. Oh, that says that you're a winner. This was in college, and I gave it to her. And she scratched it off and it said that she won $50,000. And she was like, holy shit. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:56:14 She flipped out. And she was like, I'll give you half. And I was like, now I feel awful because you just. Right or no. Hey. Yeah. That's a ride. That's a ride.
Starting point is 00:56:22 That's a ride. Ken Jack did that to a bunch of people in the office. maybe a year ago he did it to me and i knew the ticket looked weird but i was like okay dude like why are you giving me this and i scratching it said 10 grand which is like just a believable enough amount of money that you're like holy shit like uh it was obviously not real yeah how do you volunteer to give him any of that back no you already have to give two thirds of it to the government why would i give any of the rest again yeah how should you would you feel if you gave one of those a fake ticket
Starting point is 00:56:55 they like had a reason like oh I'm gonna pay pay off my parents medical bills oh god and then you're just like oh shit I haven't told you guys this but I've been I've been heavily in debt because I've been paying for my sick brother and this is going to take care of the rest of it
Starting point is 00:57:11 and then it's like actually it's not real sorry man yeah for a second I thought you actually so did I for a second you got really I yeah I was doing a character of somebody that just got a that just got a fake lottery ticket I was like your brother's sick
Starting point is 00:57:27 Aaron Best female vocalist Look at these orphan statistics In 2021 According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services On any given day 391,000 children are living in the U.S. foster care system and the number has been rising
Starting point is 00:57:45 Over 113,000 of these children are eligible for adoption and they will wait On average, almost three years for an adoptive family 53% of the children and youth who left foster care were reunited with their families or living with a relative. That's actually staggering. 25% was adopted. I just wanted to get a little data about what we're talking about. I think COVID actually increased orphans in the United States.
Starting point is 00:58:08 That might be a factor. It doesn't really give an indication as to why. I'm sure if I keep reading it will, but I want to give a quick fact check. Yeah, I got your. Okay, so it also depends on how we are categorizing the generation, right? When I look up generation, it's anywhere between like 19 and 20 years, right? That's a generation, right? Like when they say Gen Z, Genet, whatever the case may be.
Starting point is 00:58:29 Yeah. That's a generation, right? So if we're doing that and Mali Cyrus is 31, you said? 30. She's 30. So you got to give me anybody that's like 40 years old. I'm sorry, 50 years old. No, no.
Starting point is 00:58:40 Like 20 to 40. 49. No, I'd say, before and after, that's her generation. No, but I'd say, you said 20 years. Right, but 10 either way is 20 years. So anyone who's between 20 years? 20 and 40. 20 and 40.
Starting point is 00:58:53 Okay. So that takes away Beyonce. Okay. Yes. It's still fine. Okay. You got Rihanna, Adele, Arianna Grande,
Starting point is 00:59:02 Lady Gaga, Jennifer Hudson, although that might be. Kelly Clarkson, Demi Levado. You took away. Demi Lavado. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:12 Nicole Shurzinger. Look her up. Shurzinger. There's this new joint that's blowing her out of the water called Eniko. Fire. And there's plenty more, bro, but it's one of the best of her generation is a wow statement.
Starting point is 00:59:25 I understand she's talented, but there's just plenty more. I think she's in the top 10 of those people you just name. Yeah, she is. She's better than that. Demi Lovato. She's better than Demi Lovato. Okay, cool. They were, I don't know that that's true.
Starting point is 00:59:39 I don't mean it as disrespect to Demi Lovato, but Miley Cyrus. I don't know. Demi Lovato in her prime could belt. So could Miley Cyrus. I saw Miley Saris in concert. Name one Demi Lovato song. Skyscraper If I haven't did heart attack
Starting point is 00:59:54 Oh yeah listen to heart attack And tell me that Demi Lovato is not a better singer than Miley Cyrus I think I think Miley's slightly better I think Miley's definitely in that way I think Miley's the modern Dolly Parton Well it's familial tax Yeah I think she is like the torches and past from Dolly to Miley
Starting point is 01:00:13 Why? Why? Dolly is Why? Because Maybe it's just because Dolly and Miley are like friends they're not it's her godmother yeah yeah they're friends the torch was passed by god
Starting point is 01:00:28 from mother to job uh Jennifer Hudson's 41 so it doesn't count okay because I that's I would give you Jennifer Hudson so where do you put my lady Cyrus on his list I give you 10 can you say him again yeah
Starting point is 01:00:46 uh oh I gave you nine I'm sorry Rihanna Adele Ari on Wait, wait, slowly. I'm going to go one by one, and I'll tell you if she's... Rihanna? I'm... Better artist, maybe.
Starting point is 01:00:59 There's more reason to have the conversation anymore, then. Better artist, technical from a singer aspect. Okay, I'll give you Rihanna. I'll give you Rihanna. I mean, if we're talking about that, there was just... I'll give you Rih. How's you guys a day going?
Starting point is 01:01:12 I think Lana Del Rey is a better, is a better artist than Miley. But we're not having that conversation. I know, totally. Okay. Jennifer Hudson. Lana, her flowers. So, no, Rihanna. Okay, I'll give you Rihanna.
Starting point is 01:01:25 Adele, I'll give you Adele. Thanks, man. Lady Gaga, I'd say it's close. Get the fuck out of here, but... And then who else did you just say? Kelly Clarkson. I think Miley's better than Kelly Clarkson. Okay.
Starting point is 01:01:46 Nicole Scherzinger. I'm not familiar enough with her work. so I can't say whether or not. Just being honest. I hear you, man. I think you're a Miley Cyrus fan, and that's okay, and there's nothing wrong with that. I think we need to really talk about Lona Del Rey's artistry.
Starting point is 01:02:02 Good job, Billy. Good for you, Billy. Get in there. I don't know. I was going to, I don't know if she's under. Lana Del Rey. How old is you? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:02:14 I think she's. She's 37. Oh, she's. She's her before Miley, too. Billy, did you know. that there's a tunnel in her ocean boulevard? Yes, I do. Tulsa.
Starting point is 01:02:26 No, I've been a lot of stand for years. I think Miley's firmly top ten. That's my take. Nobody's mentioned Taylor Swift. Interesting. I wasn't part of this discussion.
Starting point is 01:02:40 I don't think her vocal range is that of Miley's. I've never heard Taylor Swift sing something and be like, wow, that was an incredible singing. I think she's a very, very good singer. She's a very excellent songwriter. Storyteller more than anything. Yeah, and like performer.
Starting point is 01:02:55 She's the artist. Yes. But I don't, yeah, I mean. I'd say Miley, Miley blows her away in terms of vocal ability. Like, belting, like, belting and stuff. Taylor Swift doesn't like belt. Miley Cyrus is around three octaves, and so is Taylor Swift. Hmm.
Starting point is 01:03:14 I mean, I love that woman, though. Yeah. But I would say, I would say, I love all women. Thank you. So people were upset that Jill Biden invited both the Iowa women's basketball team and the LSU women's basketball team to the White House. I think that's just... It's politics.
Starting point is 01:03:33 Iowa votes first in the primaries. It's very simple. You don't have to look too far into it if it was... I don't even think it was that. I think it was sexist, to be honest. I know. I think it's sexist as fuck. It's trivializing women's basketball.
Starting point is 01:03:47 It's like, oh, this was such a great moment. for women's basketball, let's invite both teams, like which you would never do with men. But it's, if it was Stanford, if Caitlin Clark played on Stanford and they had a great finals against LSU, I don't think Stanford gets invited. I think it's Iowa. They vote first in the primaries.
Starting point is 01:04:05 It's the most important state. I just think it's like Caitlin Clark. I mean, if they run- She's an icon. I mean, it doesn't matter. Maybe she invited them to White House because she wanted to organize a game between them and just watch it herself,
Starting point is 01:04:17 in which case I would be like, yeah, I would watch those teams play again. with good referees yeah uh erin did you watch the women's final i did not it was a great game of basketball besides the refs i heard man i heard it i heard it was i didn't even know it was on honestly yeah ls u was just insane in the first half just made everything and then katelyn clark is very very good um angel reese no problem with what you did you're about to talk shit as much as you want Yeah, if you have a signature celebration that you use against other people, like when Caitlin Clark did the, you can't see,
Starting point is 01:04:54 which is not as Aryan educated us. That was not a John Cena move. But if you do that, then somebody else is allowed to do that to you if they beat you. That's just how it works. I had mine done me many times. People bowed at you? Not at me, but like if they scored or, you know, got a pick or whatever. Classless
Starting point is 01:05:18 If anyone got a TFL on you Would they bow in the backfield That would probably be the worst I think a couple times that happened Yeah Yeah But I didn't think anything of it I was like shit
Starting point is 01:05:27 You got me talking about it And no offense That's kind of a good one To like do back at you Yeah The bow Yeah It's kind of good
Starting point is 01:05:34 If you're a defensive lineman You don't score touchdowns No But if you bow Like it's kind of Like bow in the back field Yeah no offense But you made a good move
Starting point is 01:05:42 For people to do back to you Who's that Revever for Green Bay 89 like back when I played something Jones oh Greg Jennings I wasn't Greg Jennings something Jones I don't know he did it
Starting point is 01:05:57 that was that one was weird because he's on offense you know what that was the weirdest one I was like I was sitting on the sidelines like okay I couldn't stop you I'm on offense too much like that one was weird that's almost a sign of respect when somebody on offense does it no he kicked it so like he bowed and then he kicked
Starting point is 01:06:14 oh he kicked the bow like get it like get it out out of here. That was just odd because I was like, nigga, I don't play defense, man. I'm like, what? Yeah. Did you mean you're about to the Giants? Yeah. He did that. He did, yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:30 Him and Justin Tuck, Jack, my shit. Yeah. Yeah, both of them. What? Justin Tuck started jacking it first, though. When he, when they were doing it, like, have you ever spoken to them about it? No, it's not that deep to me.
Starting point is 01:06:45 I think it's a dope gesture. I see a bunch of people do it since then. I don't know if it's because of me, but I think it's just dope. Yeah. They wouldn't do it if you weren't good. Cool story. Same thing with Angel Reese.
Starting point is 01:06:57 Or Angel Reese. She wouldn't do the, you can't see me if Caitlin Clark wasn't very good. I mean, Caitlin Clark was getting so much, like, stuff over the whole tournament where everyone was, like, training her, like, she was like, this golden girl. Not that she didn't, you know,
Starting point is 01:07:12 wasn't backing it up with the performances, but didn't, like, Angel Reese have, almost a better performance throughout the tournament. She had a very good tournament, but no, Caitlin Clark had, like, the best statistical performance of all time. But didn't Angel Reese have, like, 34 triple doubles or double doubles? That was more than any other- Throughout the regular season. Okay.
Starting point is 01:07:31 Yeah. So, I mean, they're both very good players. Yeah. But I think Caitlin Clark had, like, an all-time great, like, the best season ever of any women's college basketball player, and one of the best seasons of all time for any college basketball player. And Angel Reese had, again, one of the best seasons of all time, but she was just kind of unlucky that
Starting point is 01:07:50 she played in the same year as Caitlin Clark. Yeah. She got all the accolades. I think if, when you do something like that, if you're Angel Reese, you just open yourself up to getting trash talk. You mean if you're Caitlin Clark, if you do the Right. So both of them are open, like the more
Starting point is 01:08:08 you do that, if you're just someone who's like total nose of the grindstone hustle and someone does that, then maybe you'll see, like oh you shouldn't have done that that player like i see that but if you're openly going back and forth and competing and talking shit throughout the whole uh tournament and regular season then of course like i if you're going to get like dunked on basically at the end of the of the game while losing there's nothing wrong with that yeah i think every i think every now in this sports reminds us that there's still a very real racial undercurrent in this country every single
Starting point is 01:08:40 time sports sports like keeps keeps that shit i don't it doesn't keep it alive because it's there it just keeps it it just keeps it on on the it's it reminds us it's a friendly reminder like hey still here because it's it's it's obvious what happened but all i mean okay so here to here the season stats angel reese 23.7 points 2.3 assists 15.9 rebounds katelyn clark 27.7 points per game 7 and a half rebounds seven point two assists so reese is a much better rebounder not to say katelyn's she's a decent rebounder um but katelyn's assists and points are better just to say i like that they're both coming back though was talking to titus about it they're both coming back this could be our magic versus bird yeah and magic clearly kately clark and larry bird is
Starting point is 01:09:30 clearly angel reese they're going to pay more than i know than they are wmba i'm no reason I think there's also it shows there's like it shows the difference between people who never really played competitive sports and people who actually did in the reactions like on Twitter let's go I think that's the biggest one because like I don't even in pickup leagues like I half of the time like I get excited to just go talk shit to other people for like an hour like I just it's like therapy yeah yeah like my son bro my son got uh got got got got sat or his mom pulled him. That's a whole other conversation. But his, his coach sat him because he kept scoring all kids and he hit him with the two little thing. You know what I'm saying? When you, when you score on somebody, you say you're too small, they, his coach sat him because he kept doing it. I'm like, I don't know. I feel different about that shit. That's, to me, that's a part. I don't fuck sportsmanship. I don't care about that shit at all. Like, I told them there's reasons as to why you got sat, but you're not going to find, you're not going to, it's
Starting point is 01:10:35 not coming from dad saying, hey, son, we need to maybe, no, fuck that shit. Talk shit to them little niggas. And then after the game, dapp them up, say good stuff, respect the performance and respect the competition. I'm not saying to take it off the court, but I'm all for the shit talk. I think that's what makes sports fun and shit, right? Like, that's why golf is so, it's only now growing so big because it's just so fucking dorky.
Starting point is 01:10:59 Like, you can't talk shit. It's too, I don't know. Message me, though, man. Talk shit. I love that. Yeah. And if you don't like that. to people that are talking shit, then stop them, and then you can talk shit to them.
Starting point is 01:11:09 That's always a great moment is when somebody runs their mouth too much, and then they get burned. That's why I loved about the matchups. It was Jalen Ramsey, and who was he trying to guard? It was Ramsey. It might have been Gronk. There was some dude that burned him. Oh, when Gronk tossed that one cornerback out the club.
Starting point is 01:11:30 Yeah. And he was talking shit to him, and then Gronk just literally threw him into the stands. Yeah, that was nice It was shit, who was it? It might have been No, Jalen Ramsey went Was it against the Bill's Diggs? I think it was Diggs
Starting point is 01:11:45 And then Josh Allen humped his face Yeah, yeah, that's what it was Humping his face in the bottom of the pile If you're Jailen Ramsie, you're really good And you're talking a lot of shit And then Stefan Diggs comes in And burns you deep twice I think he scored two touchdowns on him
Starting point is 01:11:57 And then got up in his face And then Josh Allen put his dick into his face While they were on the ground After running him over Yeah, that's part of the game Oh, that was... You better be... If you're gonna...
Starting point is 01:12:07 It's like the saying from the song in the jackass movies, if you're going to be dumb, you've got to be tough. Yeah. Like, if you're gonna talk shit, you better be prepared to get face-focked. Because you might phase, like, with that attitude, you might phase, like, 80, 70, 85% of dudes who, like, have the skill but don't have, like, the mentality.
Starting point is 01:12:28 But then you're going to get caught by those 15%, 10% dudes that are going to prevent you from winning a championship. You're going to run into a dog. Yeah And some of the most iconic moments in sports Are shit talking Like, oh yeah Do you remember Reggie Miller
Starting point is 01:12:43 The choking with the Spike Lee shit? Yeah, like that type of shit, bro That's what Spurs rivalries, dog That's what makes sports sports. All this is goofy, man. Yeah, that's why people tune in sometimes is to see, okay, Reggie Miller did the choking on his throat thing to Spike Lee.
Starting point is 01:13:00 Then guess what? Everybody's going to tune in and watch the next time the Pacers are in time playing the Knicks. Muhammad Ali changed boxing. He changed the sport of boxing by talking shit. Yeah. And then back in. And then, to me, that's what sells tickets is because it's like a lot of people
Starting point is 01:13:15 tune in because they love him, but a lot of tuning people tune in because they hate them and they want to see them lose. And that's what Spurge that shit. Like, Mayweather is the same shit. Talked a lot of shit. But back that shit up. Jake Paul, everyone was more tuning in, seem to get knocked out. What we're not going to do is have a, have a, have a, have a.
Starting point is 01:13:34 have a dialogue you got to say it started with Muhammad Ali and ends with Jake no it's the thing is you you got to get flowers words do boxing boxing is not been oh nigga at this level since I'm just saying he's he's he's sold tickets he's created he's created the buzz around fire oh crack sale doesn't mean it's good don't yeah yeah exactly we're talking about you know the difference between just being good and then the extra element. Billy, you and Jose Canseco sold a lot of tickets, but I wouldn't consider you to be one of the greatest boxers of our generation. A hundred percent. You are one and oh.
Starting point is 01:14:15 Yeah. Muhammad Ali lost a couple of fights. Billy hasn't. Fair point. Fair point. Oh, fuck, man. Would you go to jail to protest the draft Billy if you got drafted into Ukraine? I don't know. That whole, like that whole. Would you go fight and die for a hundred Biden, Billy? Billy is the Muhammad Ali of our generation. No, the thing is I wouldn't fight for a hundred Biden, but like the plight of the Ukrainian people is 100%. The war they think they're, like they think they're fighting and is 100% just. Billy would be like, he'd be like, no Russians ever called me proud boy. Why don't I need to go over there to fight? All right.

Starting point is 01:17:57 a lot of de-dollarizing going on what are they doing across the world they're agreeing to do their trade they used to do it through the u.s. dollar now they're doing it through their own currencies okay which is kind of low key just the dollar getting weak is it might be getting weak I don't know enough about about currency exchanges
Starting point is 01:18:19 I know that some of my friends tried to do 4x trading oh that was the biggest scam ever yeah I literally I once there was a guy who We shared the same bathroom in college And he was like 4X trading I was like dude like you're gonna realize like These guys trying to teach you these like lessons to like how to do Forex trading like it's a pyramid scheme
Starting point is 01:18:40 Yeah and they're using your they're sending out these Messages of when to buy stuff like they're profiting off of your guys's movements And he's like no what are you talking about this kid was smart too he was he was a econ major Yeah I knew some smart people that tried to do foreign exchange Yeah and then what this I he then i found like i once heard him in the heard him in the door over like calling his dad being like dude i'm i'm like i'm in debt and i was just like fuck dude like yeah you can these guys are predatory you can lose a lot of money i think they do prey on college kids yeah because with
Starting point is 01:19:13 the videos that they put out they they make it seem like it's pretty simple to do and if you're a smart kid in college you can figure out what they're teaching you and be like oh well yeah i can do this i'm i'm like you said i'm an econ major i understand how uh how how global exchanges work okay i understand what this guy's saying but in reality when you try to put it into practice you lose a shitload of money some people make money but you make money in the beginning and that's what gets people involved because there's a certain like with i don't know exactly how it works but like he came out he's like look i made a thousand dollars like like three weeks ago yeah i was like oh is that just when you started and he was like yeah i was like what did you do with the
Starting point is 01:19:51 money since he was like well i've been i put it all back into four x yeah so how's el salvador looking with whole Bitcoin thing. Let's see how Bitcoin's been doing since these bank collapses. I think it bumped up a little bit. Oh, it's down. Okay. It's down back to 20. It's, oh, it's down today.
Starting point is 01:20:10 Every time there's an economic scare, it goes up, and then everybody, everybody realized, oh, we're good, and it goes right back down. No, so from a month ago, it is up a lot. I don't know when, so it was 20K, now it's up to 28K. Okay. So it's actually maintained. a little bit of its value.
Starting point is 01:20:29 If we see more banks collapse, hopefully we can figure out when one of these banks are going to collapse and make some money off Bitcoin. Yeah. All right, Billy, that's your next assignment. Oh, by the way, on the trademark assignment, we can't get the trademark.
Starting point is 01:20:43 Okay. Why not? Because it's the cost benefit of applying. What's the cost? Well, no, it's, hold on, let me get the slack. It's third floor stuff. Paul. we just have to submit it but hold on one second yeah paul is the lawyer um 90% of the time
Starting point is 01:21:07 it doesn't pay to register because registering costs over a thousand dollars just to apply yeah okay yeah so i might have to just do it yeah and i'll own do it yeah yeah go for it i I suppose it would you go 50-50. Okay, deal. Let me know. All right, so, Arian and I now own the both of the... Do you think they would take board apes as currency? I got to see how the board ape market's doing right now.
Starting point is 01:21:36 We were down last time I checked. Oh, good news on the Doge front. So since I didn't sell and it cost me a lot of money, I actually ended up making more money using the money that I pulled out of Doge, betting on the national championship game than I would have if I kept it in. Oh, nice. that it was like it was the best gambling night of my life oh really good for yeah it was incredible hmm what's doge at right now i don't know is that the moon yet
Starting point is 01:22:03 doge it's still oh doge is down doge is up plot twist yeah if you would invest in doge on april 3rd at 430 p.m and then that's approximately you would have 10 times your money Three hours before I pulled my doge out. Yeah, if you invested on April 3rd, then sold it. Ten times your money, that's chump change. I invested when it was so small. Oh, my God. If you had bought it at 4.30 p.m.
Starting point is 01:22:34 and then sold it at 7 p.m. on Monday, April 3rd, Eastern Time. You would have 10 times your money. Hmm. Well, let's see what I bought it. Oh, I don't have it. I can't look at my stats anymore because I sold all of it. How the hell does that? Like, what happened there?
Starting point is 01:22:50 I mean, it's an unregulated security It was started as a joke To make fun of Bitcoin And then it just became something that people invested in I know there's Dogecoin billionaires Who actually just have bought the dogs As an ode to Doge Because they're now like
Starting point is 01:23:04 They made a million dollars Yeah, if I was on the moon I would get a Shiba, you know That dog is still alive by the way The Dogecoin dog The Dogecoin dog I saw it being pushed around I think it was being pushed around DC With the cherry blossoms
Starting point is 01:23:17 And like a stroller By the way, shout out DC this is the best time of year if you're thinking about going to visit our nation's capital cherry blossom time baby i was there this weekend they take those cherry blossoms very seriously they're beautiful on the window of every business is cherry blossoms yeah if you put cherry blossoms on a t-shirt you have to buy it's all that's there you have cherry blossom merch i got a lot of yeah a lot of it the nationals unveiled their cherry blossom collection last year bought that i've got dc old glory cherry blossom uniform it's cool and it's a cool thing that the city has if you touch them people yell at you
Starting point is 01:23:55 yeah they're protected yeah my great grandfather has a tree with his name on it right off the title basin dc pretty cool whoa yeah sick flex um all right anything else we want to get into before project sunshine oh there's a trump mugshot t-shirts to sale for sale on the marshall store Okay. Nice work, Billy. I had a whole plan to release them if his actual mugshot got released, but I never did. Did they take one and it wasn't released? No, they never took one. That shit would have gotten leaked so fast.
Starting point is 01:24:30 I know. Even if they said don't leak this. So yeah, go check out Billy's Trump mugshot. Why didn't he take one? Dude. I think because he wanted one so bad. I think the courts were like, well, he clearly wants to use this to make money. So.
Starting point is 01:24:45 Well, you have to be like processed through. a jail to get that right which he wasn't he just showed up to an arraignment yeah he wasn't arrested wasn't handcuffed he was arrested technically but he wasn't he wasn't handcuffed and all right and he didn't yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:25:00 um all right anything else guys or you guys want to jump into it let's get into it an hour and a half I think we can jump into Project Sunshine Billy you and Aryan seem to have spearheaded this
Starting point is 01:25:17 Arian, you were the one that suggested it, actually. Where did you hear about Project Sunshine? I was just looking up like dope conspiracies. I don't say dope, but like conspiracies that were actually ended up being true. I was more interested in that because we, you know, we spend a lot of time to talk about shit that end up, it's easily debunkable or whatever case it would be. So I wanted to do one that was actually ending up being true. So it was, yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:46 Go ahead. No, no, go ahead. I was just going to reiterate that fact. You kind of sounded like Billy right there. When are we going to do real conspiracies? Well, not, because I think a lot of time it comes from, not just Billy, but like, we'll do something where it's like, yeah, well, this didn't turn out to be, you know what I'm saying? It doesn't leave for much conversation. No, I know what you're going for, yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:06 Yeah, yeah. I think that's what's fascinating to me about it is, is there's really, and originally when I first thought it was called the Dead Baby Project. And that's where everybody caught my attention I was like, yo, what is this? And so I started reading up on a little bit and it was kind of wild, man. Yeah, medical testing on United States civilians, which has happened...
Starting point is 01:26:27 Not just medical testing. Right, but this type of stuff has happened before. There was a precursor to it. I know, it happened like a couple months ago. Well, no, precursor means before. Oh. Yeah. Where the U.S. government in 1950
Starting point is 01:26:44 conducted a biological warfare attack on the city of San Francisco. Oh, yeah. Did you hear about that? Yeah. So there was a Navy vessel that used giant hoses to spray a fog of two kinds of bacteria. Saratia Marcinses, Marcences. It's a bioweapon. And Bacchleus Globeji both believed to be harmless at the time into the fog
Starting point is 01:27:08 where they disappeared and spread over the city. And so they, nearly all of San Francisco. Francisco received 500 particles per minute per liter, excuse me, 500 particles, particle minutes per liter. In other words, nearly one of the 800,000 people in San Francisco exposed to the cloud at a normal breathing rate inhaled 5,000 or more particles per minute during the several hours that they remained airborne. And they studied the reaction to that. They've also done releases of bacteria, the New York City subway system on the Pennsylvania Turnpub. and a national airport just outside Washington, D.C.,
Starting point is 01:27:48 and none of this was released to the United States government until a, or by the United States government until a 1994 congressional hearing of it. So there were some people that died during this testing, mostly people who had already been sick and receiving treatment for other diseases. But, yeah, a bunch of people got pneumonia from it. They tried to sue.
Starting point is 01:28:12 and with a heavy enough exposure to it, it could have killed them. And it did kill some people, but it could have killed a lot more. So, yeah, the United States government does have history of experimenting on its own citizens. One day we got to do Plum Island Animal Disease Center. Is that the one that the Montauk Monster came from, allegedly?
Starting point is 01:28:37 Allegedly. But that was just a sea-swollen raccoon. Got it. Off to Costa Montauk. Got it. So what did we learn about Project Sunshine? Who wants to give the full background into it? Billy, Arian.
Starting point is 01:28:53 Yo, I just learned about something new. I love that feeling. This is actually wild. Okay, so a little bit of background, it's not that complicated, but it's kind of wild. I think in 19, what was it? 53 53
Starting point is 01:29:14 the U.S. government well okay this is what I learned new I kind of want to get this off William Willi Libby yeah okay
Starting point is 01:29:27 there's a dude by the name of Williard Libby who was a a Nobel prize winning chemist and he's actually responsible for the development of radio
Starting point is 01:29:41 car dating and so and so he's like he's like a very well-known chemist and this is like a a wild archetype of like the mad scientist so what I just learned was that I can't believe is this really can it y'all y'all give the background I just want to read them and make sure this is accurate before I fucking say this in in 1955 uh in post world war two kind of pre right beginning of the cold war the atomic energy commission was trying to figure out some of the impacts of this new nuclear world we were living in. One of these was urging researchers, the specifics of testing and urge researchers to use their own contacts
Starting point is 01:30:26 in order to gain functional research on how nuclear weapons might impact a population. So they're conducting a bunch of tests not only on animals, soil, but trying to do that. to figure out how what would happen after a bomb dropped yeah so the problem they were trying to solve is they came out with this brand new technology which was nuclear weapons and at the time we should do it when um the Oppenheimer movie comes out we should do a macro dosing on the development of the atomic bomb in the Manhattan project I think that'd be fascinating we should all stand in front of like I'm reading about right now yeah we should all just stay in front of microwaves for a while just like to make sure we get nuclear takes off agreed agreed so the problem they're trying to solve is
Starting point is 01:31:11 We just invented atomic weapons, and when they set the first one off, they didn't know if it was going to, like, destroy the entire Earth, because this was all kind of theoretical stuff that they'd come up with. And as we developed a big stockpile of nukes, and we knew that Russia was building their nukes, we needed to figure out exactly how effective they would be and where it would be a safe distance away to station troops if we're setting off a nuclear weapon. We need to do models of if we launched a nuke that hit, you know, on the east side of Moscow, how would that affect the city as a whole, depending on where the winds were blowing at the time, with a radioactive fallout, which is the stuff that a nuclear bomb produces that can kill and injure people and give them lifetime diseases if enough of that radiation hits their body. It just destroys all your cells. So you might not get hit by the blast, but you get the radioactive fallout.
Starting point is 01:32:07 out which could then also kill you either immediately over the course of a couple days or over the course of years. So they had no idea in practice what that would look like and how they could model what each radioactive blast, the damage that it would cause. And the only way that they could do that, according to them, would be to find subjects and expose their bodies to certain levels of radiation that they could then use to say, okay, nuke that is this big will affect this person if that person's, you know, 20 miles away from the epicenter of the blast. So specifically they wanted to figure out how strontium, radioactive strontium, strontium 90 would impact individuals because they had a decent amount of research on some of the other
Starting point is 01:32:56 radioactive isotopes, nuclear scientists, feel free to correct me. I don't know if that's the exact right term for it. But this guy... How many nuclear scientists do you think listen to this podcast? Oh, a bunch. And they're just laughing the whole time. They listen to feel better about themselves? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:33:12 Like, I'm really smart. I just heard Billy tried to explain strontium. Yeah. So Dr. Williard Libby, who's sort of the head of this atomic commission, atomic energy commission, who then they put together this project, Project Sunshine. It was the Sunshine Commission. And basically, they, the Genesis. of where this gets really takes this evil term and we'll just put it in dr williard liby's
Starting point is 01:33:40 terms um they needed specific test subjects in order to see the impacts of strontium 90 on human tissue dr willier liby said i don't know how to get them but i do say that is a matter of prime importance to get youthful uh to get them and particularly in the young age group this is on like test subjects so human samples are of prime importance and if anybody knows how to do a good job of body snatching they will be really they will really be serving their country body snatching so what ended up happening almost 1,500 samples of cadavers were babies and young children and were taken from countries from Australia to Europe often without their parents consent or knowledge and up to 44 stillborn
Starting point is 01:34:29 or premature babies were taken from a Chicago hospital during this body snatching it got so bad that in one particularly grim example is stillborn's baby's legs were removed by researchers in the UK and the mother was told that she couldn't dress the baby for the funeral to conceal
Starting point is 01:34:47 her from the fact that her legs had been taken for the project what they figured out after you know stealing a bunch of babies bodies was that strontium 90 had a really negative impact on the youthful cells in human bodies and I don't know how much so in in science like body snatching or just experimenting on cadavers dead bodies is a pretty common thing you can choose to donate your body to science by the way after you die right you can like contact your local university and be like hey I give you permission to use my body to either conduct studies
Starting point is 01:35:26 or to teach classes dissect my body and a lot of people choose to do that. I don't know if... Yo, you don't hear something. I have not chosen to do that, but... No, but you know what's from doing it? You're doing it? Yeah, I'm 99% sure I have CTE,
Starting point is 01:35:42 so I definitely want them to have my brain to study along with the rest of my body. I mean, I ain't going to do shit with it, so might as well. Pay it forward? Yeah. So, the crazy story, my buddy was in med school. someone in his med school class in in med school you all get like a cadaver
Starting point is 01:36:01 a buddy in his med school class realized that he knew one of the cadavers that were donated that's pretty creepy he was like holy fuck that's Mr. whatever I think it was like a I think it was like his science teacher from like high school
Starting point is 01:36:19 but like they were in a very different part of the world part of the country so like I know they purposely try to ship him but he was doing medical school in a different part of the country It was just by chance And in his science teacher It's like I'm donating my body to science I'm a science teacher
Starting point is 01:36:33 And he ended up finding him Like in his like I don't know Third year med school He was like holy shit that's mystery Can you get out of a test If you like know the cadaver That would probably be the weirdest thing It turns out like I don't know
Starting point is 01:36:46 My buddy in med school Cadvers do like weird stuff Go on Their dicks get huge Okay Okay Apparently Is this true?
Starting point is 01:36:57 Yeah. It makes me feel a lot better about my own eventual autopsy after I pass away. Yeah, it's, apparently it's a thing, like, after death, there's, like, rigor mortis and, like, tons of fluid gets in that area. I know that your extremities swell. Yeah, so you're just, like, sitting there, like. What a stiffy. You know, all these dudes just have mash it. All right.
Starting point is 01:37:18 That's what I heard. That's cool. That's, like, the heat is actually really interesting. That's what necrophilia color. There's people who like to have sex with dead people. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that 99% of necrophiliacs are dudes. I would. I have no issue.
Starting point is 01:37:35 It doesn't seem like something chicks would really get into. What percentage of morgue workers do you think are necrophiliacs? Percentage? Convicted or estimated? It's probably a very low percentage. It's just that it's probably a higher percentage of morgue workers than people that work in other places. Because the access? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:37:55 Yeah, because the access and if you self-select into becoming a worker in a morgue, I'm not saying that all of them do, but you're probably more likely to have that predisposition than other lines work. Does that make sense where I don't think it's super common, but I think that if it happens a lot of times, it's somebody that works there. And probably if you work at, if you're like, oh, like you're on like a speed dating, you're like, oh, what do you do for a living? Oh, I work in a morgue. I know the embalming.
Starting point is 01:38:26 I know a lot of people that own funeral homes. And it's like you have to go to a mortician school. How many people do you know that own funeral homes? There are several families in Cleveland that have like large funeral home. Are you in with the mortician mob? One of my best friends from high school or two of my best friends from high school are in that field. That's weird. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:38:50 Not me. No. When they tell like if you're on a date and you found out that. They were a mortician. Would you... Funny story. So my friend, her parents, own a funeral home,
Starting point is 01:39:03 like, not conglomer, but large business in Cleveland. And her dad's family is the one that does it. And her mom and dad on their first date, he picked her up in a hearse with a body in the back. No way. Well, it must be a pretty big... How did that work out?
Starting point is 01:39:20 They're married with four children. And are... And that, I mean, they're loaded. I mean, think about it, being a killer and deal with dead bodies in Cleveland is probably a very highly esteemed job. There's so many serial killers there. It's almost like a per capita. It's like a monopoly that you have. But then if you get in with them, like, when you have people die in your family, you don't have to like go through the whole like song and dance.
Starting point is 01:39:41 You just like text your buddy and you're like, hey, Grover Maddie died. Need your help. Yeah. Yeah. That's a good hookup. Yeah. No, it's a great hookup. And they're all very, very nice and very emotionally in touch because they deal with dead.
Starting point is 01:39:55 people and families that are grieving all day but yeah it's a there's like three families in Cleveland that I grew up with that are really really big in the fewer home circuit that's there ever been like a sitcom or a TV show based around a family of morticians there has six feet under on HBO I've never seen it yeah it was about that's a great plot for a story it is it it was a very good show and you're right it's like people in that line of business they they see people at their most extreme emotions yeah Every single week, every single day, probably. It could be a comedy, it could be a drama, it could be anything
Starting point is 01:40:31 because everything encompassing that. It would probably be easy for writers because they could make up a new story about everybody who died. That's what happened, yeah. Every episode would start with somebody dying. Yeah. And then it would show the whole process around it. Wow.
Starting point is 01:40:45 Or imagine if you're like the type of funeral, like I knew another family that owned a funeral. I knew a lot of people that owned a funeral homes that lived in the funeral home and then you live there. And then their funeral home burned down while they were in it. Oh, my God. In the middle of the night. Isn't that creepy?
Starting point is 01:40:59 That's very, yeah, that's like the creepiest thing ever. You and I found out about embalming that that whole industry is sort of was like totally a cash grab after the Civil War. That basically they had to, during the Civil War, so many people died, that they had to send a lot of remains back to their hometowns. And in order to do that, they had to keep the body sort of intact so it wouldn't rot on the way there. So they, in bombing became more mainstream. And then after the war, they had all these morticians who were just like, oh, shit, you know, we have this whole business going, war is over, you know, no one's shipping dead bodies anymore and needing them preserved. Why don't we just make sure everyone has to preserve their body before they die? Hmm.
Starting point is 01:41:44 Did you guys ever go see the bodies exhibit? That's creepy as fuck. I went to go see it. It's, uh, it shows the human body. so they take they take corpses and then they like take out the central nervous system they take out the circulation system the respiratory system and then they have it on exhibit so you can see what it actually looks like it was like a massive it traveled all over the world and it was like a big hit and then people were like wait a second these are a bunch of essentially like Chinese slaves yeah and they just took their bodies they they made it seem when it first happened they were like oh all these corpses were donated you know the people donated their bodies to science for an exhibit like this and then slowly more and more information came out where it was people that were just they just took their bodies yeah it was people who died in chinese prisons yeah they did not tell people that at the start
Starting point is 01:42:37 i was not aware of that fact when i went to go see it the craziest part is like it was almost impossible for them to find bodies that didn't have smokers lungs so if you're in the exhibit they like show you this is a non-smoker's lungs this is a smoker's lungs and then if you're looking in the exhibits. I actually went recently in Vegas, and there was like in all of the some of the other bodies, they all have smokers lungs and who smokes very highly per capita, probably Chinese prisoners. Hoons. Yeah, Craig and Hoons. But it's, I have, it'd be great. I mean, talking about the U.S. doing, you know, sketchy medical research, who knows what the hell is happening in China right now? Yeah. On the medical research front, because they, they,
Starting point is 01:43:22 don't like as you can see they were selling bodies like there was an instance of a Chinese scientist genetically modifying two twin babies whose mother had HIV and was trying to make them HIV resistant and they did that and then they the Chinese government like he like the Chinese government imprisoned him but they might just be imprisoning him with a lab to make him do more genetic editing tests like what mingle was doing or mingale how you pronounce it the the german scientist yeah during uh world war two the angel of death or whatever i mean but so experimentation on human bodies has gone back along what did you know that michelangelo and da vinci oh yeah trafficked corpses and they dissected them just to learn more about the human body yeah ben franklin
Starting point is 01:44:18 said they could draw better like oh this is what a foot looks like and just learn about science yeah uh and then brings me to a question the efficacy of this all um i understand that ethically it's probably wrong to do it without permission but let's say just for sake of conversation say you body snatch and then you stumble upon a cure that can save millions of people like was it was the efficacy border boundary that you crossed worth it so i would say if you subscribe to the belief that after you die your body is no longer a vessel of yourself your body is just flesh and bone that's been discarded and it's going to decompose i don't i don't think it's ethically wrong necessarily to figure out how to use your body to help people who are still
Starting point is 01:45:21 alive but there are a lot of people who truly believe that their body even after they're dead is like a sacred thing and it determines for instance whether or not you're going to get into heaven or hell and you know if your body some religions even think if your body's cremated you destroy your soul and so it ruins the entire rest of your life if you genuinely subscribe to that belief then I think it's very fucked up to then take your body against your wishes and do something to it because you're just essentially like disagreeing with that person and saying your true beliefs don't matter to me at all and so my beliefs allow me to then take your body and desecrate it I think that's I think that's fucked up to do
Starting point is 01:46:09 but there's probably there's probably an ethical line to that too like if you believe that your body needs to be you know displayed in a public square for the next 30 years after you die and anybody who infringes on that right is then stepping on on your true beliefs there has to be a point for the greater good where it's like well we can't we can't just allow everybody that subscribes to this religion to then just have their bodies hanging out and potentially causing sickness and all that everybody's still alive so i guess it's like i guess it's truly a a sliding scale and it depends on it just depends on what the average person would believe. Aaron, did you ever know the story of Henrietta Lax? Henrietta Lax was an African American woman whose cancer
Starting point is 01:46:53 cells were taken in 1951 without her family's permission. Yeah. I mean that's one of the craziest stories of all time because she's the first technically immortalized human because her cells still exist today. Yeah, they
Starting point is 01:47:08 They still make cell cultures over through some vaccines, don't they? Yeah. That's kind of cool. Right, but her family got no money. I think there might have been a settlement. I'm not sure. But, like, you know, she's helped so much after her, you know, her death. But, like, she was kind of like, her family was kind of screwed because they got nothing for.
Starting point is 01:47:29 I mean, that's why, that's why, like, I don't, I'm not sure. I'm not sure where I stand on this. I mean, something like that where vaccines have, uh, demonstrable. be proven to benefit society like i i don't think any vaccine should cost any money and there should be a no profit motive in it understandably that's not the case that's not the world that we live in but i think if i don't know man i guess it does i think what you said pfd it boils down to like my belief system i don't believe that your body has anything to do with any kind of afterlife um and it's an assertion 100% because I'm still alive uh but that's just what I feel and
Starting point is 01:48:13 I feel like if you can help humanity with a rotting corpse that as far as we can tell does you know good man it's it's fair game so I get the efficacy of like doing a book without people's permission though like I understand it but I I guess it's It has to do with what you truly believe your personal rights are. So after you die, you will have some, you'll have some money that you own, right? And that'll be in your bank account or you'll have assets, things that you've invested in, property. And it wouldn't be the right of somebody to come in and take all your stuff and then just redistribute it to everyone, right? That's not true.
Starting point is 01:48:59 So if you don't have a wheel set up, that's exactly what happens. It can, yeah, it can. but if you have a will set up and the government does take money in the death tax and then redistributes that to try to help other people so it happens they will take your personal property and your own body I would imagine that's the most important part of your personal property
Starting point is 01:49:21 that you own and so after you have any as I'm saying you don't really have you don't have rights after you died do I think you do what really what happens is if someone has no will in no living children, family, or anything. You get buried? No, but like, they're money and assets. I think that money goes into, like, a common fund.
Starting point is 01:49:43 Or do they find your closest living relative? They try to find your closest living relative, and there's probably a certain amount of time that they'll put your possessions or your money into almost a storage thing, and then they set up a database, and then if somebody claims you and can prove that they're a relative,
Starting point is 01:49:58 then it becomes yours. Because I know, at least in Texas, there's this website that you can log on to and see if the state owes you any money for anything so like if you don't get a deposit back after you move out after paying your gas bill or whatever and you can look that up and be like oh shit the government owes me 200 bucks
Starting point is 01:50:17 and then you can get a check from them I think it might be similar to that arrangement but after a certain amount of time they just release that money whoa I might I might be wrong about that because I don't have any facts it might be different state by state it might be Yeah. But I guess the issue is, do you own your own body after you're dead? I don't think you do. I don't think you have a drug after you die. You don't if you're an organ donor.
Starting point is 01:50:42 Right. You can sign that away. You're just signing away your body. Yeah. So I guess if you have to opt in to becoming an organ donor, that would imply that you do have rights. You do have rights. You do have rights. Unless you choose to waive them. I think you have the right to be buried or cremated, like by your religious standard. But you have to, that's in your will. I think your will is just your rights after death, including your rights in your body.
Starting point is 01:51:03 I don't think you have rights after death, man. I'm looking at it. I can't find any. I don't, yeah, I think you have, that would be, I don't think you have rights after death. I think you have, like, property that is legally, it's like a contract. So it's like, if this event happens, this happens, and it's legally binding. It's not a right, though. They don't have rights.
Starting point is 01:51:26 The right is bestowed upon you by society that you don't have a right after you die. They don't have constitutional rights. Yeah. But, like, for example, I want my body to not be embalmed after death. I want to be put in the ground, and I want to, like, go through all the process of, what's called? Decomposition. I want the worms to eat me. I want the fungus to eat me.
Starting point is 01:51:52 I want to just feed the ground. Are you going to get buried in a casket? Yeah, but a composable one. I like wood. I like the idea of being buried Like with an acorn Or with like a seed And then a tree grows
Starting point is 01:52:06 And it uses some of your nutrients to grow Well I'm hoping that like My life force will get put into another animal Hopefully something lucky Or it'll probably be a struggle And like I become a worm first That like eats me And then I'm like fuck
Starting point is 01:52:21 I want to be something better So like I try to get eaten by a bird You just become the most delicious worm ever Yeah like eat the fuck out of me But then hopefully I don't go through the bird and become bird shit and then like end up being a a bacteria you will i mean part of you will yeah it will probably take years of recont like what if you're buried in yellowstone oh and buried's me and a bear uh digs me up or a buffalo comes and and grazes or bison excuse
Starting point is 01:52:51 me grazes on the grass that's growing yes then you become a buffalo and then a pack of wolves eats you as the buffalo and then now you're a wolf yeah that would be cool but i don't know if that works exactly i feel like it's more the life discourse describing muffasa talking to simbo yeah well i heard that at a young age i heard that and it was the most like it was the best explanation of the afterlife that i ever heard and i was like in sunday school i was like that sounds cool i want to be part of the circle of life that sounds way better than this heaven and hell shit yeah yeah yeah when we die we eat the what does he say we eat when we die
Starting point is 01:53:29 our bodies become the grass and the antelope eat the grass yep that's great that's a great way of looking at it I just I think that that whole cycle in living a just life is tried to be explained by every single religion but like they can only
Starting point is 01:53:44 explain it in terms of you know the Bible the Quran like yeah they try to explain like living just and like getting to like reincarnation in like Dharma. It's a pretty cool sort of
Starting point is 01:53:58 philosophy. So it in conclusion, body snatching is good. Part of the circle of life. You were here the most fucked up part of this whole project like their conclusion? The bone retentive and radioactive properties of SR90
Starting point is 01:54:16 endow it with a high carcinogenic capability. The project found a given amount of the above threshold which may be zero. Fixed in the bone will cause a certain average percentage of the population to die of bone cancer comparable with that observed in victims of radium poisoning.
Starting point is 01:54:31 What's so fucked up about this is that they did this whole project just for strontium 90 and they knew what other radioactive particles did to humans before. So they went through this whole process to just figure out like, yep, this other radioactive particle
Starting point is 01:54:47 will also give you cancer. And then they continue to do different types of tests in Belgium they were trying to figure out its impact on livestock. Yeah. And, like, you could have easily found other mammals that, like, would react the same to strontium as humans. I think they wanted, I think their explanation was they wanted human tissue
Starting point is 01:55:10 that was, like, unimpeded by other variable, at least the amount of variables as possible, which is why, like, Stillborns was, like, their biggest, who, that was problematic. I was about to say a horrible word was their biggest demographic. What were you going to say asset? I was going to say, I was going to say crop. I mean, but yeah, so they wanted like human tissue with at least amount of variables as possible to see what it would do to the human tissue.
Starting point is 01:55:42 The thing is this project is really embedded in a lot of current conspiracy theories around the portion, a lot of right wing. Yeah, they point to this. We can get into that in a second. There was a case in Arizona that happened just a few years ago. So it was a woman or a man named Jim Stouffer donated his mom's body to the Biological Resource Center in Maricopa County, Arizona. It's in 2013. And Doris Stoffer was the mom. She had Alzheimer's, and the doctors believed at the time that the disease had mutated because she did not have the usual Alzheimer's gene, so they wanted to study your brain, and Jim Stoffer donated it to the BRC, which is the Biological Resource Center, in hopes that her brain could still be used for scientific research.
Starting point is 01:56:43 Several days later, Jim Stoffer received a wooden box containing his mother's ashes. He was never told how his mother's body had been used at the center. And years later, they revealed that her brain was never used for Alzheimer's research. Instead, the BRC sold her body to the United States Army so that it could be used as part of an experiment to measure damage caused by roadside bombs. So what they did was they strapped her body into a chair and then set off a bomb underneath her body to get an idea of what the human body goes through when a vehicle is hit by an IED. and so he donated his mom's body to science and then they just blew up bombs next to it and then measured okay how fucked up is her corpse now yeah that that feels wrong
Starting point is 01:57:32 that feels wrong to me that was well I mean in the if you donate the body to science you don't really specify what kind of science you donated to I guess it's subject to you know the interpretation of said field of science that's that's that's why i guess it's not poetic poetic way to dispose of a body
Starting point is 01:57:55 like it's not like oh we found out it's just like we this much amount of of dynamite that does feel like something you should have to explicitly request there's plenty of people one might be in this room who would probably love that having your body blown up yeah so i'm sure they would not if the the amount they would need i'm sure there are people who would say yeah that be cool so you'd want to get your body blown up no i think he was referring he's talking about you oh i would want to get my body actually a rocket rocket ship blow up would kind of be cool but with ashes precisely okay describe what you're i don't understand a rocket ship blow up so put you inside of a rocket ship and then just blow it up shoot me up to space and just blow it up like the fourth of july
Starting point is 01:58:39 actually yeah being ashes oh fuck being ashes and some fourth of july fireworks would be pretty cool so my point exactly Exactly. There are people who would allow you to do that without you having to do that to people who did not consent. I know, like, at UT, there's the body farm, which is very famous in forensics. There's a, like, world-renowned forensic. I forget the exact thing. But they do experiments on all sorts of bodies. They'll, like, leave them in a car underwater for however long. And they do all these to help cops and law enforcement.
Starting point is 01:59:18 there's a like very long waiting list to get your body into that if you wanted it like if you say i donate my body but i want it to go to the body farm at ut like not everybody that wants that gets it interesting i i kind of like the idea after death that's hilarious having your body just jettisoned into outer space just fully intact in hopes that a future civilization a different planet will find you and then reanimate you yeah you just you just float into some other atmosphere that would be perfectly preserved out there that's what I'm saying you're in a vacuum yeah vacuum sealed and scent yep like some California Zaza so it turns out it turns out that this place the biological research center the BRC in Arizona sent at least
Starting point is 02:00:09 20 bodies that they had received and then sold them to the army for blast experiments without the family's consent the bodies were sold for around $5,800 each each and so you're like at that point you're selling bodies for a profit that's your business model and it was raided by the FBI in 2014 and during the raid they found several horrific discoveries including a woman's head sewn onto a male torso dismembered limbs and a cooler filled with male genitalia so it doesn't sound like they're running a real tight ship at the BRC was that privatized I zoned that That's funny.
Starting point is 02:00:49 I was trying to do some research. Was that like a privatized body? Was that a joke? Privatized? Yeah. Okay, good joke, Billy. Yeah. I don't think about.
Starting point is 02:00:59 I don't know. No, we were talking about privatized prisons. Yeah, I don't think it was. I was talking about privates. I was talking about the privates and the cooler. It was called the, no, nope, I'm just like PFT. Good joke, though. I did it.
Starting point is 02:01:11 I did it. I think I did it. I think I did it. You did a oop and instead of dug it. You laid it up. Good joke, Billy. The Biological Research Center, it might be just one of those names of a facility.
Starting point is 02:01:18 that sounds like it's like purely for science and then they just are a money-making endeavor that gave themselves a great name. Can you imagine hustling that though? Like, you know what I'm saying? Oh, there was a mortician who got busted for illegally selling organs. Oh, really?
Starting point is 02:01:34 The black market. That's crazy. Yeah, she was raking it in. Apparently she was like connected to this underground organ selling ring that like if you were super rich and needed an organ, you could like get one like if you couldn't jump the line if you was taking too long for you to get a kidney and you need one you could like go through this black market
Starting point is 02:01:56 that's what that's one thing that I don't maybe y'all can enlighten me give me the argument if you if you're dead and you can possibly give an organ that could save somebody's life why wouldn't you do that I think if you have a yeah firmly held religious belief that that prevents you from doing that man that's i don't know man i would just want i don't know that's crazy like i'm cool with being an organ donor not to brag i'm an organ donor it's in my twitter bio but you know that means they can take oh oh is there like can we think about what's the
Starting point is 02:02:34 level so they're like donating your body of science organ donor like what's next after that no like is it organ like if you donate your organs does that not mean your whole body could you still possibly have an open casket yeah uh i think you have to die in a certain way in order for them to harvest your organs yeah yeah like but most people that have their organs donated they take out their organs when you die and then you get embalmed and then they dress you for a funeral did your friend tell you this this is more i think just people know this what if they took away like they can take away your bones and your eyes and I mean, have you ever seen
Starting point is 02:03:14 kind of a fucked up body at a funeral? I don't think I have. Like sometimes you're like, they don't look like them. Like how they used to. Yeah, I don't, I think I've only been to one place their eyes. One open casket funeral.
Starting point is 02:03:25 What? Really? I've been to a ton of wakes too. Yeah. I get what you're saying, but not to flex. Not to flex. How much is it 10, you know?
Starting point is 02:03:33 Well, wakes, it's like an Irish funeral. Is that an Irish thing? Yeah, wakes? I know, I know, I know wakes are called funerals. I'm saying how much is it ton? we'll be because everyone in my family's Irish and there's a lot of them and there's a lot of they die
Starting point is 02:03:48 A lot of Irish people die A lot of 10 of 10 of funerals Well because How many of you? Well I've been to I've probably been like a dozen Well so think about this my grandfather A dozen funerals? Yeah is that a lot
Starting point is 02:04:00 My grandfather was a twin in one of 11 So there was a ton of aunts and uncles who died Irish people And they're all Irish They fuck Irish people, I got you. I guess I just don't, I don't go to funerals unless I like, know you, know you. Yeah. Like, if I knew of you, I don't really, I'm not going. And it's not no disrespect to you. It's just they're fucking sad, dog. Like, they were, they are
Starting point is 02:04:26 sad, but they were kind of fun because you met all your, all your cousins were there. It was like, it was a group hang. Yeah. And it was like, it was like, some of my favorite cousin fun memories were like, you know, is at wakes. You go to the wakes, the parents are all like... You get really good catering. We're going to drink and, you know, reminisce. And the kids are running around. You're probably at the party.
Starting point is 02:04:50 That's cool, I guess. But... You're supposed to be sad at some points. But you're 13. Family members would start crying and you'd be like, shit. You start off in like the quiet voice. Like, when you say hi to each other. You're whispering.
Starting point is 02:05:04 Eventually the drinks start flowing and you have a good time. Like, you feel a little bit guilty for having a good time, but then you have a better time. But then you know. that that person, especially if they're like, they're looking down on us. They're like, they want us to have a good time. Right. You know what?
Starting point is 02:05:17 I'm actually, I want to have a wake. Just so that everyone can have a good time. At my funeral, I want people to party. Yeah, I agree. I want a celebration. I have a specific rules for my family. I'm like, nobody's about to wear black. If you wear black, I'm going to stash in my will, $100,000,
Starting point is 02:05:33 two big ass Samoan, security guards. Two big, $50,000 is just for, if anybody has black on, it can't come in I like that I said a couple years ago I want like Hawaiian shirts aren't like where where something put you in a party mode
Starting point is 02:05:52 you know I just got sad bro I just got sad put on some balls beach wear come out and have a good time sponsored yeah there will be like a at some point three cheek or a bar table of three sheet for content
Starting point is 02:06:07 don't say that on this show yeah we didn't say who um the one of the most funniest parts about wakes is that everyone just starts putting stuff they think the guy would want to take with them to the athlete like like baseball like a baseball like a baseball yeah yeah like a case of beer sometimes yeah i always made the joke i i like like i would always be like oh like when do you think they're gonna pop out like i you know they're still alive because sometimes if people i've been several funnels where if the person
Starting point is 02:06:34 that's dead where like if you dress them in a certain pattern or color and you look at them a certain way it kind of looks like they're breathing still so I'm like you kind of got to go like survey the scene a little bit make sure they're really dead I always got creeped out because a lot of people would kiss the body yeah yeah yeah I can't do that yeah and it's like go pay your specs no and it was like wait am I supposed to kiss him too I'm like I don't know I didn't kiss grandpa when he was alive why don't he was like you never kissed him with breath yeah that's that must be an Irish Catholic thing yeah yeah they'd be like go kiss your grandmother goodbye I'm I'm like, I don't want to.
Starting point is 02:07:09 Like, grandma, I understand, but I don't know. No, I didn't, I couldn't bring myself to do that. I would stop. Or, like, when you had to go kneel in front of it, I couldn't even do that. Yeah. The kneeling was to avoid, I don't know. It's a whole thing. But it's fun.
Starting point is 02:07:26 They were fun. Yeah, you can have fun. You always end up, because for some reason, like the funeral homes were always next to graveyards, which means there was always, like, a good lawn. Did you say for some reason? Yeah. I'm not put together that one. Isn't that weird?
Starting point is 02:07:40 Somebody should look into that. I was trying to think. And there was a lids right, nigger's right. But there was always a lot of green grass. So you'd always end up like playing some sort of sports in your funeral outfits. And they'd always get grass dates. And then like your school, it's like one of your really close relatives and your school friends would come. And then you're just hanging out with your school friends.
Starting point is 02:08:04 Yeah. Fun fun top. Wakes. Wakes. Wakes. Wakes. Wakes. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:08:10 Funerals suck. Wakes are where it's at. I remember at my grandfather's funeral, there was, it was at a Unitarian church. And Unitarians, they'll get up and talk about whatever for hours. Yeah. And this thing lasted for like five hours. And it was just one person after another just getting up, maybe telling a story that was like tangentially related to my grandfather or maybe some that were just like they wanted to talk about what they thought God was. And so at Unitarian Funerals
Starting point is 02:08:38 It's basically an excuse for everybody in that church To attend and then stand up And get something off their chest About the religion as a whole Or about the church as a whole Yeah my other grandfather's Quaker Funeral wasn't that It wasn't a party
Starting point is 02:08:55 Yeah As somebody who was raised in the Quaker church I fully give permission For people to have a good time At my eventual funeral hopefully long after Dan Snyder dies. Do you want to get cremated? I don't know.
Starting point is 02:09:10 I haven't really given that much thought to it. No, I think I want to be jettisoned in the space. I think that's the way to go. Are you going to go to Dan Snyder's funeral? I might recreate the meme. That shit would be hilarious. That's the only way that I think I can make Dan Snyder be the good guy in a situation. Is if I...
Starting point is 02:09:28 Stunt on him. Yeah. I just come with a giant poster of all his terrible free agent signings and all the lawsuits against them. A picture of RG3 tearing his ACL Albert Haynes I'll make sure Albert Hainsworth shows up God damn
Starting point is 02:09:42 Just to pay his respects Did you so you played against Hainsworth right Against Maybe one or two years And he went to UT so I know him That's one dude Congratulations to him For making a shit load of money
Starting point is 02:09:59 He got I think $100 million from Dan Snyder as a free agent I forget maybe like 53 million was guaranteed something around there and then he joined the team and then uh they made him do the conditioning test on the first day training camp um and he took one lap and then just went and took a shit he just left to go use the bathroom and said fuck this conditioning test so fuck you money man so he had he had to yeah he had i'm going to take a shit money instead of of doing your drills and then they made him keep trying to do this conditioning test he was like fuck that i don't need
Starting point is 02:10:34 I got too much money to run a mile or whatever it was. And then he got to the point where he would just, he would just lay down in the middle of plays and not get up. He would get knocked over. There's one, there's a great clip of him. I think it was in the Eagles Monday night game where Mike Vic just ate our lunch the entire time, where Albert Hainsworth like gets pushed down to the ground by an offensive alignment.
Starting point is 02:10:56 And then he just lays on the ground face first instead of getting up. And, and Michael Vic has to like move around his body to get around him. he's running back and forth in the pocket for like six seconds and Haynesworth just lying on the ground like I don't feel like getting up he's a landmine that's why that's why no don't they teach a lot of defensive linemen that if they're getting double teams it's not a bad thing just to like go down but bring them with you because you like will fall in a gap and you'll you'll stuff that gap yeah there's a way to do that for sure that's not what big out was doing in this circumstance
Starting point is 02:11:27 that's what he was probably claiming he was doing yeah maybe it was it was very funny and when he When we signed him, he was like a dirty player, but he was really, really fucking good. And there was one play, I think it was against the Bears when he was on the Redskins at the time, where he just, for whatever reason, decided he was going to play. He was going to take one play very, very seriously. And he just, I think he pushed the center and the guard back into the quarterback to stop him, like before the handoff on a goal line play. So he still had that ability.
Starting point is 02:11:59 He was still strong as shit. But he was like, yeah, I don't really. really, I don't really care to make an effort on the rest of these plays. That was a, that was a great signing. Shout out Big Al, though. He was a great player for a while on the Titans, and for UT. And then he got traded to the Patriots for a fifth round pick, and Belichick was like, I can't, I can't even use this guy.
Starting point is 02:12:20 So then I think he ended up his career down Tampa Bay. All-time moneymaker, though. So shout up Big Al. I saw the other day, Brian Hoyer just got signed somewhere. Cleveland guy Yeah The Raiders The Raiders are
Starting point is 02:12:36 Are building the Patriots Of the desert I think it came across my time I think I still follow Adam Schepter And I was like Brian Hart He was one of my quarterbacks
Starting point is 02:12:48 With Bill O'Brien I was like He's still in the league Oh that's crazy Backup quarterback By far the best job In the world In the world
Starting point is 02:12:56 Yep Oh so easy So fun Chase Daniel He's one of the greats too he's still around you have to be really humble to be a backup quarterback yeah how humble do you have to be making like 15 million dollars a year you know i think you have to be humble because you have to be able to go into work for an entire season and just know that you're not the guy and that somebody else is
Starting point is 02:13:17 better than you and be be okay with that i think i can be humble for like but i'm saying most competitive athletes i think yeah okay that's true yeah y'all are you're thinking of backup quarterbacks like these competitive ass like I would say most backup quarterbacks, they're cool with not being the guys. Like they understand their role. It's about,
Starting point is 02:13:39 yo, this is a free fuck in check. Yeah. But to have the pressure of being an NFL quarterback. You don't get hit. I don't have the pressure of starting every week.
Starting point is 02:13:48 You never get hit. You literally just go and you can drink beers during film sessions, during practice, you're chilling. Like there's just zero fucking pressure though. It is the greatest.
Starting point is 02:13:58 job of the world and then if you come in and do like okay people are like wow this guy's doing really well like nothing to lose so now get you a job for three more team Josh Dobbs yep but you still Josh Dobbs was like pretty good in those couple games with the Titans made had a couple like the team didn't wasn't awesome around him and then he got another contract out of it you still my guy now yeah again the Texans did a great job of just building their starting quarterbacks out of all backup quarterbacks for like a 10 years span but you still got to show up and compete in the fall
Starting point is 02:14:34 they had so here's the list of Texans quarterback starting in 2000 when did you get into the league arian oh nine oh nine okay so they had well let's have Aryan try to remember them okay yeah can you remember every Texans
Starting point is 02:14:50 quarterback from 2009 until when did you sign with dolphins 15 you stop believing in God same year the exact same year let's see when I first got there
Starting point is 02:15:04 it was Shab and then I believe Orlovsky Starting quarterbacks Oh is just starting Okay so it was Shab and then Matt Liner
Starting point is 02:15:16 then there was T.J. Yates Then it was TJ. Matt Linerd started for the Texans started again Yeah. I think it was Brock Oswalder. No, he was second.
Starting point is 02:15:31 There was somebody before Brock Oswald. Was it Brian Hoyer? Yeah, Brian Hoyer, then Brock Oswilder. Did I miss one? You missed a couple. Ryan Fitzpatrick. Yeah. Ryan Fitzpatrick.
Starting point is 02:15:44 Fuck, I'm out. I'm out again. This really is a backup quarterback convention. So, yeah. You want me to list. Eight in the box a lot of my career. I'll list all of them. Matt Schaub, Matt Liner.
Starting point is 02:15:56 T.J. Yates, then back to Matt Schaub, then Case Keenham. Case Keene, I forgot about Case. Then Fitzpatrick, Ryan Mallet. Oh, Mallet. That's who it was. And then you got Brian Hoyer, Mallet again, T.J. Yates again. Brandon Whedon started a game. Brandon Whedon. One game for you guys. Then Brock again. And then Tom Savage.
Starting point is 02:16:22 Tom Savage. I forgot about Tom, too. God, damn. I'm going to be pretty good. Yeah, Ryan Mallee. Shout out to Andre Johnson and DeAndre Hopper. The motherfuckers are fire. Yeah. Yeah, they really are.
Starting point is 02:16:36 That's they, and before that, it was Shob and Sage Rosenfels, another all-time backup quarterback. Carr as well. What is his name? Yeah, David Carr. David Carr. So, yeah, that's what you get when you build an entire quarterback room out of the backup quarterback. It's crazy we had the success we did. Yeah, I mean, well, to be fair to Matt Schaub, he had a season where he was legit good.
Starting point is 02:17:02 I still think he's very solid. I just think he got, whatever, he got like spooked or something. I don't know. That 2000, I think it was 13 year. He just had a bad year and that shit. I think maybe he just reading his press and he just started making a really bad decision. That's my guy, though. He had a bunch of pick sixes, yeah.
Starting point is 02:17:21 Who's the best quarterback you've ever played with in NFL? I think it was shot. It would have to be, yeah. Yeah. What about in the Pro Bowl? I play with Peyton. Was that nice? Everybody's just drunk, man.
Starting point is 02:17:39 Anybody really playing football. You know what I mean? Yeah. There was one player. Everybody tags me in their circles around every, like, once a year. Where Jeff Saturday was with Green Bay, who used to be Peyton's center for, like, years. his whole career and so they let him snap the ball to Peyton one more
Starting point is 02:17:57 one more time and I was the running back for that play and it was a it was a run play and nobody blocked but it was the Pro Bowl I like the idea of they got Jeff Saturday in there at the end of his career and Peyton's in there they're like you know what Peyton would really like to stick his hand into your butthole one last time
Starting point is 02:18:15 he missed it was it under center yeah I might have been shotgun I don't know. I don't know. I don't remember. You can find it. Just say Jeff Saturday's last snap or whatever.
Starting point is 02:18:29 The Pro Bowl for linemen had to really suck because, like, skill position guys can go 50%. Like, if you're a lineman, you can't really afford to not play, really. Yeah. Because you don't know how hard the other guy is going to come at you. You just talk about it. Just make an agreement at the beginning. What you want to do, man. Everybody was there for the same.
Starting point is 02:18:51 The way they did the Pro Bowl this year, For my understanding, I didn't watch it. But, like, it was just like a skill, uh, skill. It was a flag football. Flag football. They had like the longest drive shit. They had shit like that. That's to me what, because it's football is a contact sport.
Starting point is 02:19:07 You can't have, can't play no game for real. Okay. So here's Jeff Saturday checking into the game. He's, yeah, Peyton got under center. He just wanted to stick his hand into his old buddy's butthole one last time. They snap it, hand off left to Aaron. Arian's drunk. He just kind of.
Starting point is 02:19:23 bounces around for a second and then who is who's 93 on the bucks wait wait what year is this more oh this is Richard Seymour pro bowl Joe McCoy Gerald McCoy just pounced on you and drove you into the ground was he in the NFL in 2012 yep yeah I think it was like two three years after me didn't that's why it's crazy that was it Lawrence Taylor killed got the punt no no Sean Taylor yeah just leveled the punter Brian Mormon that was RIP to Sean but that was a wild thing to do man that was a wild thing to do level of punter like that that's how he played football
Starting point is 02:20:10 I hear you man but that's wild though my man didn't even probably tie his shoes right well the punter's family was there here's the thing about Brian Mormon Brian Mormon fancied himself as a football player. Because in that same Pro Bowl, I remember watching him, he was competing in the 40-yard dash as like the, you know, they were doing all these skills competitions. So he was running against wide receivers and running backs
Starting point is 02:20:34 and he beat a lot of them. He ran like a 4-4, like a 4-3. Brian Morman, the punter from the bills. So he thought that he was like an actual football player. And he called that fake punt for himself, is what I know, because he wanted to show off how good he was at running with a football.
Starting point is 02:20:50 In that case, I I completely understand why Sean Taylor wanted to level And send him a message 100% sense then yeah Because pickers are not They don't play football No we don't Brian Mormon was a
Starting point is 02:21:01 With his He was a hurdler Yeah he was actually very fast And I think his hurdle time was fast in RG3 Wait 4-9-7 oh no No RG3 dusted him No I was saying because
Starting point is 02:21:17 RG3 I think he won like state or something Yeah I think he was a real hurdle He was a full 0.9 slower than RG3. Yeah, Sean Taylor was a great high school athlete. He played running back and safety in high school. And I think he led this entire state of Florida in touchdowns and running yards. Sean Taylor did. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 02:21:39 When he was a senior in high school at Gulliver Prep. And then he wanted to play safety. And then so he got recruited by Miami. They recruited him as two-way player to play running back and then also safety. And then they're like, wait a second. whoever it was like Frank Gore, Willis McGahey, and Clinton Portis as her running backs. So, Sean, why don't you just figure out how to be a safety and play with Ed Reed for a little bit? And then Sean Taylor ended up becoming, in my opinion, the most talented safety of all time.
Starting point is 02:22:10 I can't say the greatest because he didn't play for that long, unfortunately. And he played with a bunch of great. You know, Aaron, you never played against him. But if you watch the highlights of people playing against Sean Taylor, big dudes going across the middle being terrified. Terrell Owens was terrified of Sean Taylor, wouldn't get near him. I get you.
Starting point is 02:22:33 But I think he's in the conversation. I think he's tough. Top five, six safeties all the time. In terms of just athletic ability, I would say he might be the best, though. I would actually give that nod to Ed Reed. actually great player yeah but no yeah great player not nothing knocking uh so let's an amazing like Miami back in it that what an amazing like that's Ed Reed Sean Taylor Andre Johnson Frank Gore like it's just crazy dog
Starting point is 02:23:11 Kellen Winslow before the wild shit uh shit Ray Lewis God damn Vince Wilford they had monsters I think there was one season where they had I think it was Sean Taylor and Ed Reed playing safety Jonathan Vilma at linebacker I think Vince Wilfork
Starting point is 02:23:33 at defensive tackle Kellen Winslow the second at tight end I want to say Clinton Portis at running back and Willis McGahey too I think back then Willis McGahey
Starting point is 02:23:47 and I think Santana a moss at wide receiver kind of moss that's a team that that might have been able to keep it within 20 points of let's just say the lions that year i'm pretty sure the lines were got there they were legitimately that talented on defense squadron um you guys want to get back to project sunshine a little bit yeah uh basically a little bit basically alex jones is a big project sunshine like they're stealing babies look at project sunshine yeah there was there was actually a a worldwide um effort to steal these babies so i think you touched on earlier billy but they were coming from all over the world and they were just sending baby bodies places yeah it's wild so like
Starting point is 02:24:38 i know england had a bunch of babies that went missing so the stuff really happens and there's There's usually like a kernel of truth into whatever Alex Jones's most recent pet project is. And then he goes on like seven different tangents away from it and connects a lot of dots and ends up just saying stuff that's not true. But there's there's usually like one thing that is at least like 50% true at the root of all of his crazy shit. Which is he the they're now stealing the babies for stem cell research and the babies aren't stolen. They're donated. What do you mean? This is a conspiracy theory.
Starting point is 02:25:18 Yeah. That for stem cell research, they're using fetal stem cells. Yeah, that's true. And they're getting them from, like, stillborn babies and stuff. Okay. That's an Alex Jones conspiracy? Well, he's saying that that's why certain laws are being passed. Just say what you're trying to say.
Starting point is 02:25:40 Just say what you want to say. Alex Jones thinks that people are being pushed to get abortion. so that they can have more stem cell babies. Got it. Okay. I don't think that. Do they use, I think, if, I don't know how abortion laws work. If a mother chooses that her child is, like, donated, what they do with the body, I have no idea what that's like.
Starting point is 02:26:03 But. I'm not going to comment on it. Why won't you comment? They did do that for, I think, what vaccine was that? where they used aborted cells from a baby and some I don't remember the that's how you get the religious exemption to what to or whichever like that's what people would put in their religious exemption letters oh because fetal tissue was used and yeah okay I understand that I would also imagine that there's other things on the medical
Starting point is 02:26:35 market out there that they have no problem with using yeah at the very least medicine that has been tested on babies or in this scenario in Project Sunshine. Yeah. But you're saying that the religious exemption is that because this vaccine was created using stem cells from children,
Starting point is 02:26:54 I don't, you can't force me to put it into my body. Because it's against my religion. Got it. Got it. Is that against religion? Well, apportion. Religion.
Starting point is 02:27:08 So, because, the baby say what you're thinking out loud instead of just like muttering you can't connect there's a whole thing they're against abortion
Starting point is 02:27:18 yes so if a donated abortion was used for testing they don't want to be they connect themselves to that would they be like if they got vaccinated
Starting point is 02:27:32 would they be against like if they got into a car accident and their liver was destroyed are they like I want to make sure that this liver that I'm receiving doesn't come from a gay person.
Starting point is 02:27:43 I don't want to have a gay liver. Would they have that same objection then? I'm just, I'm trying to, I'm trying to zoom out. I'm not going to, I'm, I don't have this opinion, and I'm making a conscious effort to not like push against you with this. So people think I have this opinion because I don't. No, I'm genuinely curious, like, what the line is. I don't know.
Starting point is 02:28:05 Or is it my, because I suspect it would be like they're against the vaccine to begin with. and so that's they see that and they put two and two together and they're like that's I can't I can't take the vaccine but it's more they just don't take the vaccine because it's right they have other yeah they have other reason use that reason yeah that's that's what I was saying yeah so like if in the case of getting a gay person's liver it'd probably be like yeah please save my life yeah even though it comes from somebody that I disagree I disagree with their lifestyle yeah Fibroblast cell history.
Starting point is 02:28:42 Fibroblast cells are the cells needed to hold skin together and connect the tissue together. The fetal fibroblast cells used to grow vaccine viruses were first obtained from elective termination of two pregnancies in the early 1960s. The same fetal cells obtained in the early 60s have continued to grow in the laboratory and are used to make vaccines today. No further sources of fetus cells are needed to make these vaccines. So it's like a cell culture that they grow and they just continue to grow. Yeah. And it did stem from aborted fetuses in the 1960s. It's like sourdough.
Starting point is 02:29:17 Okay. I don't know if anybody out there makes their own bread. Yeah. Yeah. Is that how sourdough works? It's like a starter. No, it's yeast. That's different.
Starting point is 02:29:25 That's fungus. But it's the same. Fungus. It's the same fungus that other people have used to make their... I know a lot of people got into making their own sourdough bread. Yeah, but you grow in your fungus culture. You can constantly... oh shit what's the word like kind of like revitalize your starter like you can have starter
Starting point is 02:29:41 forever okay and and kind of just re like juge it up this is also as jockish gets reactivated jock itch yeah oh because of fungus it's it's all fungus yeah is it the same as athletes foot uh i kind of think so it's just athletes crotch i think i think that like because whenever i used to deal with that sort of stuff it was from my gear bag like all the stuff would be in the same place got it so like if you're throwing your cleats in with your jock with your underwear yeah then you get it on your dick yeah on your groin um gold bond gold bond use gold bond is amazing stuff you know what if you're if you're if you're having issues down there a good idea to like make sure you're not like getting fungal infections

Starting point is 02:32:21 Go from Mr. Irrelevant to a first round pick with Manscaped. Great ad read, Billy. Great transition into that one. Very proud of you. I want to catch everybody up here on a new paper came out. Our new evidence came out last week, I believe it was last Thursday, in the Las Vegas shooting. Oh, really? Yeah, so a topic that we had discussed on this show and how there's no real clear motive to it.
Starting point is 02:32:50 Per of the Las Vegas police investigation, the FBI still does not have a single or clear motivating factor behind the attack, but it appeared that Mr. Paddock wanted to die by suicide after experiencing a decline in mental, in physical health. And so they released reports of FBI interviews of people who knew or interacted with Mr. Paddock that were just made public that shed new light on what has become known about his obsessive high roller gambling habits and state of mind. He sometimes spent up to 18 hours a day gambling in various hotels, was very upset at the way casinos were treating him and other high rollers. The stress could be easily what caused Paddock to snap, the FBI said. So he would frequently carry around $100,000 in cash, had a bankroll of approximately two to three million.
Starting point is 02:33:39 Mr. Paddock was personable and intelligent and said that, like all professional gamblers, Mr. Paddock frequently kept to himself and that casinos treated high rollers with free cruises, penthouse suites and tours, but those perks have been scaled back in recent years. At the Tropicana, Las Vegas, they told the FBI, Mr. Paddock was there once every three months and was a prolific video poker player. The woman said he didn't talk about anything personal with him, but he stayed at the Tropicana a couple weeks before the shootings and lost $38,000 during that visit. The documents revealed that a different interviewee told the FBI that over dinner at Applebee's, Mr. Paddock shared with him that gambling had been his main source of income and that he bought a handgun for protection because he's earning so much money. And then he started stockpiling weapons for about a year.
Starting point is 02:34:28 And we talked about his internet searches, but he got wealthy over. the years and then he started to lose money gambling and then he got mad at the system while large portions of this and other sections of the interview notes were redacted the former acquaintance reported that mr paddock had been fascinated by the oklahoma city bombing and thought that adolf hitler was a good man uh so really the the documents that they released basically are saying he used to be treated very well and was making a lot of money that he started to lose money and they stopped giving him nice free rooms and all the high roller perks.
Starting point is 02:35:06 That to me doesn't sound like an ironclad motive behind shooting a bunch of bullshit, right? I think that it's, that's, that does not tell, we still don't know why he decided to do it. I think Mohamed bin Salman's involved. Okay. I think there was a bunch of, like that conspirators we talked about, like I've been looking into more. It's, there's a lot of shootings that night. Okay.
Starting point is 02:35:31 Near bus ports, just, just look into it yourself. Okay, do your own research. Do your own research. But, I mean, it's pretty nuts. Yeah, that would be nuts if Ben Salman was involved. I think there was a hitman who, instead of to fly under detection, they're like, oh, we don't need to bring guns to America. We can just buy guns when we get there to kill someone if we want to kill them. And then a whole bunch of hitmen were up and there.
Starting point is 02:36:01 and try to buy guns, they panic because something doesn't go wrong or it was like an FBI sting to set them up because they're trying to buy guns in the hotel, the same hotel they wanted to detain someone who didn't like the prince, was like staying upstairs, got hit with an FBI, whole thing goes to shit, they're like, oh, we're in America, what happens in America? Mass shootings. We'll just pretend it's a mass shooting to cover this all up. Pretty, like, tight thinking. then they try to there's like a bunch like if you look at the air traffic control history from that night there's tons of weird shit happening and there's unmarked uh unmarked planes that are making you know circles as if they're a helicopter but they're really supposed to be a 747 airliner when you check out their flight number it's weird okay it's weird uh could could they've been circling around because they stopped allowing landings at the airport because there was a shooting where Some of the bullets were hitting the airport. You know aeronautics as a pilot.
Starting point is 02:37:05 Yeah? You couldn't stop a 747 on the roof of the Mandalay Bay. Could you? No, you could not. Check out some of the... I could, but most pilots couldn't. You couldn't land one on the top of the Mandalay Bay. I could, but most pilots out there don't have that expertise.
Starting point is 02:37:21 It's just some weird stuff. Could that have been like a clerical error in terms of just identifying a plane as being the wrong flight? maybe because that sounds like what you're talking about is a helicopter right so if there was a helicopter that had to get people out of there i don't know there's just it's some weird stuff but was the cover up in play and in order to preserve Vegas's uh tourism and maintain relations with the new prints of Saudi Arabia in order to make our petro dollar but if there's a way if you're If your biggest priority is to make sure that Las Vegas tourism does well, I would say that having a mass shooting, a random mass shooting at a concert is a very bad way to do that.
Starting point is 02:38:09 Right, right. So you cover it up. But it happened, but there was no. Right, right. 100%. Even what they're saying happened with the Stephen Paddock guy. Yeah. That probably did a lot to harm Las Vegas tourism. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:38:24 so why would that be preferable okay more the petra dollar stuff the petra dollar okay I mean there's a lot of de dollarization happening it's the bit I mean it's the U.S.
Starting point is 02:38:36 is greatest strength that might have been a little wild out there but I mean she has some questions as Billy said it's pretty tight thinking because if you look at the time frame and who was there okay
Starting point is 02:38:50 kind of crazy was Muhammad bin Salman there no not him but you know how there's like a bunch of princes yeah there might have been remember we did the whole thing there's dozens and dozens yeah so there might have been one that he didn't like staying upstairs who was like a dissident and like remember we were talking about they imprisoned that one guy yeah did they kill the guy at the mandalay bay no we don't know but there is he alive or not they don't know who exactly it was okay but
Starting point is 02:39:18 it was on paper all the all the cameras have disappeared okay Like, they haven't released them. Okay. Like, we don't know what happened. So we don't know who stayed there. Yeah, we don't know anything. Okay. I do agree that what they put out in the New York Times, it doesn't really prove anything.
Starting point is 02:39:37 And it's kind of, like, what, he's just angry, he's not getting cruises anymore? Yeah. A guy with a ton of money is angry. Used to have a ton of money. At the time. I don't know how much money he died with, but there are a whole explanation. He had been losing money in recent history, and he'd, been losing out of his perks.
Starting point is 02:39:55 And so he decided to kill a bunch of people. It doesn't make that much sense to me. Yeah. By the, the MBS theory could totally be bullshit. It's just an interesting one to me. Okay. All right.
Starting point is 02:40:07 It is interesting. Do we have voicemails today? Yeah. Let's do some voicemails. Oh, real quick. Speaking of people who love Hitler. Yeah, I'll see Kanye's Instagram post. Oh, he's deleted.
Starting point is 02:40:20 It's deleted now, but he posted a picture of 21 Jump Street. the actual movie thing with the caption that said watching jonah hill and 21 jump street made me like jewish people again no one should talk anger against one or two individuals and transform that into hatred towards millions of innocent people no christian can be labeled antisemite knowing jesus is jew thank you jonah hill i love you my bad jews are we cool we're cool right It is a great movie. It is. It is amazing.
Starting point is 02:40:56 It is a good movie. Turned Kanye into a non-ante-Semite, so. Got out to 21 Jump Street. It's kind of a ringing endorsement. It's so funny, it'll make you anti-Semite. Make you like Jews. Make you pro-Semite. Pro-Semite?
Starting point is 02:41:19 Yeah, I was trying to get like the opposite. You were doing a double-negative non-ant-Semite. Yeah. you Semite That would just make you Jewish Pro Semite Hank used to think that Yosemite was
Starting point is 02:41:32 Yosemite Yosemite. Yeah. All right, let's do some voicemails. Or in less Aaron, did you find out the thing that you were looking at with Willard Libby? Oh, I was looking at it. I was looking at it to his involvement with
Starting point is 02:41:49 the second an atomic bomb we dropped and he was involved in it he lent his services to I threw it all the way yeah the little boy he lent his services to I forget the guy's name
Starting point is 02:42:06 Jurei he was also a chemist who developed the first helped develop the first atomic bomb I believe the Manhattan Project and and so this is not funny but it's wild he comes home
Starting point is 02:42:20 and he slaps down some newspapers on his desk with his wife with pictures of the atom bomb that just dropped and I think it was Hiroshima and he said this is what I've been working on. Wild, man. Well, think about when you're coming home late from work, your wife's ragging on you. Oh, you work too much. Like, why are you working so much?
Starting point is 02:42:47 What can possibly be so important? Like, you can't spend time with me. I have to blow Japan. is like this Yeah It's the meme Where the couple is in bed together And she's like he's probably thinking about other women
Starting point is 02:43:00 It's like how do I level Nagasaki His wife's like he's totally That would actually be a dope topic To deep dive into actually Is Japan Just the history of Japan in general It's very fucking interesting I know somebody who'd be perfect for that episode
Starting point is 02:43:16 Large Large has wanted to do a macro dosing on Japan for a long time you're going to be here next week right I am going to be here next week I'm gonna hit up large see if he can yeah he wants to talk about Japan
Starting point is 02:43:31 he's been saying that to me for like a year and a half now large I mean Japan like stop the Mongols like that's insane Japan has like a very it's problematic there isn't fucking problematic we could do a whole episode on
Starting point is 02:43:47 the rape of Man King who? Yep yeah that yep it's wild it's we'll save it but it's it's yeah Japan's history is is very interesting man I had I was it was just unbeknownst to me until I stumbled across some stuff but yeah it's always crazy how they always teach the like bombing of Japan in like the
Starting point is 02:44:14 not the A push but they always do it in conjunction with the raping just to like like that's how the history books like they try to justify our actions really i don't i don't i never learned about the rape of the man king that in conjunction no that's what that's i i'd always been taught that if we did not drop the nukes on japan then we would have had to invade japan's mainland and that the purple hearts given the way that they that they had proven themselves to fight over the course of the war and the overall mentality, like they thought their emperor was God, that they were just going to fight the
Starting point is 02:44:53 entire time until everybody was killed, like everybody that was able to pick up a weapon was killed. So they thought that we were going to lose 500,000 troops if we invaded Japan. So the cost benefit was either drop the bomb or invade and lose a bunch of American lives. That's what we were taught. That's not all entirely true. There are some models for like the invasion of Japan that would back up some of those numbers, but also take into account the fact that we were on the precipice of starting a Cold War with Russia, and they were seen as like the next big enemy of the United States. And so we wanted to show to them, don't fuck with us, we have an atomic bomb. Yeah. But like, I'm saying in tip, like, in bad, like, uh, I'm saying bad
Starting point is 02:45:40 that I can't explain. They're mine. Okay. All right, let's do some voicemails. Hey, man, I'm producing, Drew. This is Bobby from Oswego. I was just wondering, what do you think the least gross doctor job is? I, for one, think it might be the orthopedist, but I'm wondering to hear from each of you, what do you think? They're handsome, stay gorgeous, thank you.
Starting point is 02:46:09 The least gross doctor job. I think it's a wrist specialist. Like, so an orthopedic Yeah, that specializes in the wrist In the hand Are you also an orthopedic surgeon If you're an orthopedic? No
Starting point is 02:46:23 I think you'd be an orthopedic doctor Maybe not a surgeon Yeah But I feel like they usually do both Because like just checking out hands No, just checking out hands pays the bills I'll tell you that Really?
Starting point is 02:46:36 But like what What they I feel like a sports orthopedic doctor Yeah You're putting on casts all day long Yeah, but what's nice about, like, the forearm and the wrist, it's, there's no, like, mucus there. It's not, like, your nose and throat where you have, like, wax and build up and shit like that. It's pretty cut and dry.
Starting point is 02:46:55 You get, you got your wrist, you got your finger bones, your hand bones, and then some of the radius and the ulna, the forearm bones. Pretty, that's a, that's probably the least gross part of the human body. Yeah, an orthopedic. What about a dermatologist? Oh, no. No. Have you seen Dr. Pimple Popper? Yeah, you're right, okay.
Starting point is 02:47:15 Yeah, dermatologist, no way. You get funguses. I enjoy those videos, but I wouldn't want to do it. You got to scrape shit. You like the pimple popping videos? I love the pimple. It makes me feel clean. I knew Mad Dog would, but you big tea, that's a crazy.
Starting point is 02:47:28 No, I like it. It makes me feel better. It's like satisfied. Yeah. When they pop like a giant cyst and. Oh, I love it. Oh, no, I can't. Ear wax videos, too.
Starting point is 02:47:40 I like earwax videos are the best. No, I love them. When they do the water. I don't like those those don't satisfy me as much but the oh like when they have the the little suction thing oh I love it good stuff yeah now that I would not want that to be my profession but I enjoy watching them I do man I don't know why man it's it's so oddly satisfying and when she get I like the ones where like you have that little scraper thing and it's like right by the noses the light hair and you push it out and you push it out and you push it out and you're And they just ooze out. I don't know what the fuck that is. I feel relief. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:48:19 Actually talking about it right now sounds disgusting. But I like, I like enjoy them so much when I'm watching them. Would you like watching a video of somebody like taking a shit? That's not the same. I don't know that. That's the same thing. No, it's not.
Starting point is 02:48:34 It's your body eliminating waste. Actually, a close up photo video would probably look a lot like some pimple popping videos. Yeah. So just a bad. I don't judge because I'm a big chiropractic video guy. A chiropractor is the best doctor. You just get to crack knicks all day.
Starting point is 02:48:53 Well, those aren't doctors. Are they doctors? Technically, legally? No, they are not. I think they're not. You're a doctor if you're a chiropractor. You are not. Yes, you are. Yes, you are. Yes, you are. Yes, you are. You go to chiropractic school and you have a doctor. Chiropractic school is not medical school. But you're a doctor. You're legally referred to as a doctor.
Starting point is 02:49:13 They may call themselves doctors They are not They usually get doctors Chiropractors They are doctors of chiropractic medicine That is not real medicine So they don't They're considered physicians
Starting point is 02:49:25 They don't hold an MD They're not medical doctors They can't write prescriptions Yeah They're not medical doctors But they are technically doctors Of something besides medicine They can put their tax
Starting point is 02:49:37 On their legal forms They can put doctor They don't go to med school No they go to chiropractic school That to me, that's a big distinction. So then you're not a doctor. So like if you were to become a foot doctor, a podiatrist, you would have to go to medical school. Correct.
Starting point is 02:49:51 To get that. And then that's your. If you want to become a back doctor, you have to study spinal. That's like the classification. You can be a spinal doctor. What's the famous quote, injury, spinal. Oh, no, it's Mike Tyson. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:50:07 My back's broke. Spinal. Yeah. I don't know. A wrist doctor is a good. good guess of or a good pick though for chiropractic's not disgusting because even a wrist doctor you might have to deal with
Starting point is 02:50:19 with like a compound fracture yeah you have bones poking out like chiropractor or like nerves crack crack crack yeah yeah yeah well that's that's why Billy that's actually the case against why why chiropractors aren't doctors because if you have you you your doctor is based around the back right
Starting point is 02:50:37 yeah but if like a bones poking through a chiropractor be like whoa whoa whoa I can't this yeah let's get this man to a doctor yeah imagine if a chirofactor's like cracking someone's spine like the spine just popped out like through the skin yeah and you're like crack someone's back if you're if you claim that you're a doctor and the first thing that you do if the part that you specialize in breaks is you dial 9-1-1 you're not an actual doctor i love the chiropractor though listen it's not a knock against the fact that they can make you feel great and they can provide relief and there's probably a lot of angry chiropractors listening to your chiropractic
Starting point is 02:51:17 slander right now if you're a real doctor you probably don't spend your days listening to billy talk about science so a lot of them do because they hit me up and get mad at me yeah they were five doctors at our live show remember that that's yeah that's yeah good fair point i wait so it depends on how we're defining doctor right because doctor medical doctor you can have a doctorate in something you have a phd and something and they they call those people doctors as well so It depends on what we're defining a doctor as. No, we're talking medical doctor. Yeah, like Jill Biden, not, but she's not considered a doctor in terms of this conversation.
Starting point is 02:51:54 You know who are really fucked? The people who get doctorates in a, from a different, like a doctorate in performance arts and then get like a certification in some sort of talk therapy and then try to like try to be therapist. and really like fuck up people's lives because they don't know what they're talking about. Yeah, if you don't have a doctorate in your field that you're in,
Starting point is 02:52:20 but you call yourself doctor and people are misled. So Dr. Jill Biden, jumping back to her, she is a doctor. She studied, she received her PhD in education, I believe,
Starting point is 02:52:31 which is a legit, you have to, like, defend a thesis and all that shit. It's a lot of work. So that is a doctor, but then if she were to become a talk therapist
Starting point is 02:52:39 and like try to work with kids with stutters, and try to or not talk there like a just like doing some sort of counseling yeah and then just like she's not she she doesn't have her doctorate in her field which would in that in this hypothetical counseling well i know someone who's doing this billy's got his eye on you beth i'm coming at you beth you know who you are you know what you did mm-hmm fucked up a lot of lives yeah if you if you pass yourself off as a doctor your doctor should be in whatever field you're trying to to promote yourself in.
Starting point is 02:53:13 Yeah. Yes. Agreed with that. I believe, so when I was in college, we had to take tests on the AP style book. And I believe in the AP style book, it said you should only refer to people as doctor if they're medical doctors. Really? Which I think is a good practice to use. What about Dr. Martin Luther King?
Starting point is 02:53:36 I believe in the AP style book, it was only refer to medical doctors as doctor so-and-so. It would be Mr. Martin Luther King. Luther King. He was a... Reverend. Reverend. Yeah, Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. What was his doctor? I always forgot this. Wasn't it like divinity? I don't know. Use doctor as a formal title on first reference to individuals with degrees in medicine, optometry, dental surgery, osteopathic medicine, pediatric medicine, or veterinary medicine.
Starting point is 02:54:05 Okay. Per the AP style book. The AP style book, what a, what a crock of shit all those. change rules every year just so that they can send out new message. Yeah, you have to get the updated one. Yeah, you got to buy the updated style book and then we're going to make college students relearn this shit every single year with your stupid little rule changes. Systematic theology was Martin Luther King's doctorate, doctoral study. Got it. But yeah, I think a lot of people refer to him as Reverend Martin. You know what's really competitive for schooling? A veterinarian school.
Starting point is 02:54:38 Veterinary school is impossible to get into it. Yeah. Really hard. I didn't know that. I was thinking about it. Also, if you think about it, that might be one of the hardest doctorates to get because you have to know every animal. Yeah. Yeah. It's not just like, oh, I'm a E&T or, oh, I'm a, you know, heart doctor.
Starting point is 02:54:58 I got to know one part of one human. But think about this. If you know all parts of many animals, you 100% know a human. Yeah, I would let a vet take care of me if I was injured and there was no doctor around. No problem. isn't osteopathic medicine like fake doctors though yeah kind of i don't know i don't know what osteopathic is um there's functional medicine i would assume that osteo means bone because they're not mds right no they're odes i believe so that preventative medicine okay so it's like uh alix guerrero
Starting point is 02:55:32 tom brady's guy treating the entire person as opposed to uh symptoms that i don't have a problem with Yeah, preventative, like, here's, fix your posture. As someone who's currently dealing with hives and just getting treated for hives that just keep coming back and no one really knows what the fuck's causing them, kind of would like to meet with someone who might be like, hey, this might be doing it. So, Billy, do we have an update on your condition? No, it sucks. You look like you don't have any splotches right now. Yeah, but they're, they pop up now and then.
Starting point is 02:56:08 Is there like a root call, like, on? It's so random. Hmm. On days you have to podcast? Is it stress? No. Could be stress. No.
Starting point is 02:56:20 I'm not stressed. It might be stressed, Billy. I might be stressed. All right. We got another voicemail? Yep. Hey, this is Lucas from Lexington. Awesome show.
Starting point is 02:56:35 Love all you all do. But my question is, What is the last place you would want to visit? Mine would be Somalia or Mogadish. That's the same place. And I just want to know what your own opinions are or where you're all the least favorite places a visit would be. Y'all take care. Bye.
Starting point is 02:57:01 All right. Good question. Shout out Lexington to Kentucky. I have been to Lexington, and that is not the last place I would want to visit. You've got good whiskey there. Had a great time in Lexington. Sneaky, while I despised the University of Kentucky, sneaky, sneaky high on the list of SEC cities.
Starting point is 02:57:20 Really? Yeah. It's a small one, isn't it? Yeah, it's not that big, but it's a good town. Yeah, I had great pizza there. Good whiskey. Did you go to the Dave place? I don't, I don't think.
Starting point is 02:57:32 Because I went there after that, went by it was very good. This was, um, like 2014, I think, was the last time. went to Lexington. It's a good town. It's behind Nashville, Knoxville. A lot of people would put Athens high. I hate Athens. Athens is fun. It might be, it might be third. Baton Rouge. I've never been, but it doesn't seem like a place I'd love. But Lexington, Lexington's high on my list. Columbia, Missouri, Como. That's a cool place. it yeah i like lumbia really yeah good college town birthplace of a safe space it's what is in missou birthplace of what they were one of the first very public ones to do that yes safe space
Starting point is 02:58:26 yeah yeah remember they had that circle oh yeah yeah yeah like in the middle of their campus yeah yeah yeah i remember that um tuscaloosa never been trash Auburn good okay uh Ole Miss is in Oxford? Oxford, yeah, Oxford. I think we can all agree, dead last. Start Phil. Probably, yeah.
Starting point is 02:58:50 Aaron, you played in the SEC. What was your favorite place to visit? We never got out in the city at all. But the best atmospheres, I think, for me was I loved playing in Kentucky. I just loved that their vibe there. um south carolina was dope um i probably ls u ls u or florida were probably the best stadiums and playing yeah i can imagine games bill would be fun yeah we didn't we didn't really like venture
Starting point is 02:59:22 out of the town at all so i can't can only speak to the like you know game day atmosphere all right but least favorite where would you not want to visit this guy said samalia yeah okay i oh i kind of want to go to antarctica really honestly i don't think there's a single spot on earth, I wouldn't want to be because I think I could have a good time anywhere. Anywhere. That's just my mentality. Anywhere. Phalusia.
Starting point is 02:59:48 If I was in Fallujah, Aleppo, like, yeah, there's a war going on, but like how many, I don't know, if I just had the right like, if I was with the right people with the right equipment, I don't think I could be in any bad place. Like anywhere
Starting point is 03:00:04 sucks without, if you were in New York city with, you know, no money in your pocket, you know no shoes no nothing New York City would suck if you were in anywhere it's just like depends on the equipment you have with you. It's vibes then. The Sentinelese Islands I was good that was my thing. If I was in the Central East Islands you know
Starting point is 03:00:20 you'd be dead with a suit of armor. No he'd bring footballs. I'd bring footballs. I'd bring footballs to teach them about football. I'd literally be like wait let's play catch. Are you guys fast? Billy is describing a really good like beer ad campaign where you just go to the most terrible places on earth and like Kylie Jenner
Starting point is 03:00:35 or Kendall Jenner hand him a fucking Coors light and just chill out and then everything is fun and then you party yeah nothing's ever bad happened to introduce I would like to buy the world of Coors introducing you know isolated populations to alcohol is always gone great
Starting point is 03:00:52 right right yeah yeah I can't think of a time that's gone wrong Antarctica would be it would definitely be up there on the list but at the same time how cool would it be to be hanging out with a bunch of penguins yeah and like polar bears like people have fun everybody oh come on
Starting point is 03:01:08 Mad Dog. From a distance? The polar community is going to have a field day with you mad. You're the most vicious. Don't get old. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Billy, talk to him.
Starting point is 03:01:20 All right, all right. Talk to him, Billy, tell him. Holy fuck. Billy's having a crisis right now. We're having a mean girls moment live. Oh, no. Don't do that to me. Don't do that to me.
Starting point is 03:01:32 Penguins and polar bears have never met in the wild. You absolute fool, because they're on two different ends of the earth. Oh. Polar bears are in the Arctic, the North Pole. Penguins are in the South Pole. So there's no polar bears in Antarctica? There's zero pole.
Starting point is 03:01:54 Oh, I look like an idiot. Now, Billy, you're an industrious young mind. What if we introduced polar bears? I wrote a paper on that in fourth grade. So what are the implications? Well, because they were pushing the whole. global warming that in 2015 all the, like, this was in
Starting point is 03:02:11 2000. Billy was in the pocket. Yeah, it was in the pocket of big oil as as a, yeah, they were telling. They were to saying that there won't be any more polar bears by 2015. It's 2020. 2020. There's still polar bears. So like, I was like, oh my God, all the polar bears are going to die. Loved polar bears. Still my favorite animal
Starting point is 03:02:27 on earth. Shout out Gus, the polar bear in the Central Park Zoo. But I was like, we should take all the polar bears and take them to Antarctica. because they still have more ice than the North Pole and they can still do all the hunting and stuff on the ice sheets in the Antarctic
Starting point is 03:02:47 because there was just more ice. But what would happen? They wouldn't have the right prey sources. They could eat the fuck out of penguin. Penguins can't escape a polar bear. Yeah, they probably would just switch. But there's certain things. Polar bears need to be on drylands sometimes.
Starting point is 03:03:06 Like they can live their life. all out on the ice but some of them tend to go scavenge like whale carcasses and like it would almost be like the the situations would almost be too hostile for them in certain regards
Starting point is 03:03:21 on the large ice sheets Polar bears can't play on the road yeah I mean it would be cool like actually let's see what the updated science is on that could polar bears so here's my prediction with Billy would we talk about about you narrating your Google searches
Starting point is 03:03:36 sorry Here's what I think would happen. Polar bears would get massive and fat and huge, and then they'd just take over Antarctica. There would be a polar bear explosion south of the border. And then penguins would only exist because I know penguins are in, I think there are some in New Zealand, and there are some in the Galapagos,
Starting point is 03:03:59 which is the only place on earth that has penguins above the equator. Either that, it's like the height, the most northern point in the world that has penguins. But penguins, the problem with them is they're too friendly and trusting, and then they're slow when they try to walk. So if there are polar bears there, they would eat every penguin. It would be an all-you-can-eat-a-piguan buffet.
Starting point is 03:04:20 Are there a lot of seals in Antarctica? Now I'm all thrown out. Well, actually, now I'm rethinking this could be... I believe there are seals, but I might... Like in sea lions or those... No. I might be wrong. Sea lions, I think, are warm. Those are in, like, San Diego. Yeah. Yeah, this was the second paragraph of my essay. I'm remembering this.
Starting point is 03:04:37 Polar bears would be a threat to native Antarctic. Yes. Life. Like they might end up eating all the penguins, but the penguins wouldn't be sustainable. So the polar bears would end up dying too. It'd be kind of sick if there was a Joker of nature. Yeah.
Starting point is 03:04:55 That just like went up to the North Pole. This Joker captures one pregnant polar bear and then flies to Antarctica and just completely ruins the entire continent. Yeah. That'd be so cool. chaotic that would be insane because now I think about it like walruses and seals are like one of the main food sources for polar bears but elephant seals are like the antarctica's walruses yeah i mean polar bears don't have natural predators right except humans except humans remember we're still number
Starting point is 03:05:28 one yeah just remember that because we got noggins yep or you could just you could send them to the South Pole and then have legalized hunting against polar bears Yeah, but you'd have to feed them Well, that's the penguins I know what the penguins are also endangered Are they? I think some like the emperor penguins are they
Starting point is 03:05:51 They're only in one spot Okay But like elephant seals Are some of my favorite animals To watch fight Because it's the closest thing to like Sumo wrestling in the animal kingdom And they just go at it
Starting point is 03:06:03 They just like, like, if you pull up a video of it, it's insane. It's like two, they slap just their huge, like, bellies together. Yeah. It's insane. They're also like as big as a VW. Okay. Any other places that you would not want to ever be? Russia.
Starting point is 03:06:23 Just the entire country? Pretty much. You can have fun in Russia. Yeah, you can definitely have fun in Russia. Like the machine is all based on it. As a woman, could I have fun in Russia? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 03:06:33 Yeah, there are parts of Russia you could have fun, for sure. I don't have any desire. Like, I want to go to Moscow just to see it. Yeah. Right now I would. Same way I'd want to go to Finland, which is a new NATO country. Congrats. People are going to be like, oh, comrade, Philly's coming out again.
Starting point is 03:06:54 Yeah. Their hot prime minister got voted out. Is that Finland? Oh, no. What happened? Oh, no. What's you do in the color free time nowadays? I don't know exactly, but she's done.
Starting point is 03:07:03 Is she down bad? Dunsky, that's a good term for a... She needs a shoulder to cry on. For a person in Finland who's really going to know. That's a Polish. Yeah, she's Dunzo. Maybe that's Italian. Depressed Italian.
Starting point is 03:07:16 Dunzo. Maybe, I think... Yeah, Mogadishu. I have no real desire to go to Mogadishu. On the State Department website right now, that's where they tell you if you travel to Somalia, leave us a sample of your DNA and have somebody designated from your family
Starting point is 03:07:33 that will be in charge of negotiating you as a hostage. You're kidding. What? No, it does. That's the official United States. Because there's no law there. They can't protect you. Oh my God.
Starting point is 03:07:43 We talked about... Wait, there's no law at all in Somalia? Well, it's like a bunch of... It's a failed state. It's a bunch of rival... I don't know anything about it. It's a bunch of different factions of rival warlords that are always fighting with each other for power.
Starting point is 03:07:55 And so if you're a westerner and you go there, or even if you just live there, it's tough. I told you all this on this show a couple months ago. need to hire the you need to hire the local militia whichever one's in control at that moment you need to hire their services
Starting point is 03:08:11 to take you into Mogadish is Mogadish? Wait, is Mogadish like their capital? Yeah. Okay. It's where Blackhawk down happens. I have no desire to visit Saudi Arabia at the moment unless they pay me millions of dollars to join the live tour. I would visit anywhere.
Starting point is 03:08:30 If like if the local militia in Mogadishu is like come like you know chill with us like they they have tons of this old italian colonial architecture like if you want to know why smalley is fucked up blame the italians good yes and then like tons of like really cool mosques that are built i'd love to see all that shit they've got good beaches there too yeah do some piracy yeah dude i mean how cool would it be like yeah whatever you know it's bad and what whatever but how cool would be to be like a pirate for just a little. It's like just being bedded with some pirates. Yeah. It would be fun. You'd have an
Starting point is 03:09:06 adventure. Yeah. I know you love adventures. Uh, you can, you can keep me out of North, North Dakota. What the fuck? North Dakota is sick. Is it? Have you ever been to the Black Hills? No, I've never been there. Wait. That might be South Dakota. You might be, uh, just a bunch of North, North Korea too. Yeah. I don't really want to visit there. Although, remember when Trump went over there to meet, uh, he was going to meet with Kim Jong-un. and he was like you've got a bunch of like prime coastal real estate we can build a bunch of luxury resorts and turn into a tourist destination i don't know they might have some good some good land some pristine land in north korea oh you know where we absolutely i think the teddy
Starting point is 03:09:48 roosevelt uh libraries in north dakota i'm going to go there one day and i'm going to film a video because teddy like have you ever read about teddy roosevelt's time out in north Dakota. I've not. It's like where he literally like found himself. And like, yeah. Oh, uh, Nairu. I don't want to visit Nairu. That's probably my number one actually. What's that? I think I'm pronouncing that right. Nairu, it's a tiny island that's, I forget what body of water. It's in, hang on, let me take a sip. And, and what? I think it's N-A-I-R-U. Oh, Nauru. Nauru, it's an island that was established as like a landing spot or I guess a deportation spot for people who were caught trying to illegally immigrate to Australia.
Starting point is 03:10:44 And so it's just a flat rock with nothing on it. Apparently back in the day it had some minerals, maybe potassium. I forget exactly what they were extracting from there. But now it's just a flat rock that's filled with people that they just deport there, that Australia just stations on the island. There's a Budapest hotel there. Is there? Yeah.
Starting point is 03:11:05 On Nairu? I think that this might be a tourist attraction. No, it's definitely not. It is quite literally a flat rock that has been stripped of all vegetation. I'm looking at it on satellite right now. It's looking pretty green. Okay. All right.
Starting point is 03:11:18 Well, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I've bought into propaganda about Nairu. I would love to go to Svalbard, which is supposed to be like, You can't go outside without carrying a gun because of the polar bears. Where's that? North and Norway. I follow someone who lives there on TikTok. Oh, yeah?
Starting point is 03:11:37 Yes, and she loves it. She's obsessed with it. But she does have to travel with a gun because of the polar bears. I should have known. She always talks about them, but yeah. And they have no crime. No crime is fault ward. The cold keeps all the bad people out.
Starting point is 03:11:54 And it's dark for six months of the year all the time. There's no light. That would suck That's what Prince used to say about Minneapolis That everyone's nice there Because it's dark all the time Because the cold keeps the bad people Is that what Prince said?
Starting point is 03:12:10 Oh yes, he did say that I'm looking at a picture of Nairo here There are some trees on it But very It's very sparse It's like right around the coast There are a couple trees And there are some beaches
Starting point is 03:12:23 But It doesn't look like a great place to be So is it literally just like a desert island that they put people on to like let die not let die but they they definitely don't have a prosperous life there yes it says the only thing that they have there is the like airport question or quotes which is like a strip to place people yeah billy when you say they have a budapest budapest hotel there i don't know where this hotel is because you can see almost the entire island budapest hotel it isn't it's not like a luxury hotel
Starting point is 03:12:59 It's not the grand Budapest Hotel. So it just is a Budapest. Yeah. Budapest Hotel. Utilitarian Oceanside Lodging featuring free Wi-Fi. I'm looking at it right now. If this, so it's, it looks like the worst apartment complex in your city with a trailer next to it. It's right next to Anabar Beach.
Starting point is 03:13:21 It has an electrical kettle in your room and a microwave. Seems like it has all the necessities. I'm looking at the. The gallery that they have there, it is, yeah, not what you'd think of when you hear Budapest Hotel. Papua New Guinea, just looking at the map, places that are close, also wild place, from what I've heard. Oh, yeah? Yeah. What goes down in Papua New P&G?
Starting point is 03:13:47 Tons of mercenary groups fighting over mineral rights, but, like, there's no one there to report on it. So you'll have, like, Wagner group guys out there battling, like, four. South African mercenaries who like work for an Australian company now because would you have a good time there yeah I just meet up with some dude like some bros like there's always dudes everywhere across the world who will like sit in a bar and like tell war stories can always pop on with the boys yeah it's true like literally like name a place in the world there's probably a couple places yeah where are you thinking uh like Qatar.
Starting point is 03:14:30 Yeah, you can... I had some beers with the boys in Qatar. So, yeah, really anywhere. No desire to go back. Literally, you can go anywhere in the world and get beers with boys. I don't think that's true. I've heard you can't do that in Bhutan.
Starting point is 03:14:44 Bhutan. Bhutan, I've heard, is like the... One of the worst places in the world to visit because they're run by, like, a dictatorship. They've got some rules that are like North Korea light. Now, let me tell you something. They're very unfriendly to outsiders. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 03:14:59 Butan has never been colonized. That might be the only place you can't get beers with the boys. Yeah. Do you think in North Korea, you can get beers with the boys? If you're in a certain class, you can. If you're like, if you're in the government pretty high up, your entire life is probably just beers with the boys until you get. A commoner.
Starting point is 03:15:21 Yeah, a commoner definitely not. No beers. They probably have like one type of alcohol there that they know how to make themselves. and it probably sucks and feels like you're drinking gasoline and you get like your buddy smuggles it in once a year Oh, Bhutan has a huge brewery Yes, craft beer Yep
Starting point is 03:15:41 Bruton The best beer to do There's a lot of beer in Bhutan They actually, they weren't colonized by the British But yeah dude you get beers with the boys of Bhutan Okay It should be a good question for Donnie too We should ask Donnie
Starting point is 03:15:56 Is there any place you don't want to go? Yeah. I bet he'd say the Sinton Lionels. I mean, Donnie was running towards the guy who he thought was about to, like, blow up. It's a mark of a hero. No, no, he was, like, just didn't care what he was doing. Yeah. I was like, dude, he was giving him directions to the crowd of people.
Starting point is 03:16:20 All right, it's okay. Nobody got hurt. Yeah. All right, we have another voicemail? Yep, more. you know what's up guys i'm awesome uh i'm at unh for now uh i have this question for a while i always want to ask you guys if you are in a zombie apocalypse if it's just going to happen right now if you guys are at the office right now and arian wherever you're at right now if it happens
Starting point is 03:16:48 at the second what would be your first reaction what would you do at this moment you're sitting I'm not talking about some walking dead night zombie shit. I'm talking about some bath zombies. What would you do immediately? I got it. Love you guys. Thank you for all you do. If we're here, it's different.
Starting point is 03:17:10 No, first thing I do is I have an axe at my desk. Thank you, Liver King. I tape my arms with duct tape so that if I got bitten, that's what a lot of animal handlers do. So you can't get bitten through your skin. I mean, he's talking about fast zombies. Escaping the city would be the hardest part. In the early parts of the apocalypse happening, streets are going to be crowded. Your best bet would be trying to, it would be hard.
Starting point is 03:17:46 It would be very hard. Probably trying to barricate this building would be pretty easy. The only entry points to this building are in two. places. I'm not going to talk about specifics because of security reasons, but we probably just try to hold out here until help would come. What help is coming? It's a zombie apocalypse. The thing is we probably, if we try to get out, like wait for the crowds of people to either all get killed or turn to zombies and see the military will come in, try to slaughter as many as they can. They might get overrun, but you're going to see a lowering a population of zombies
Starting point is 03:18:22 and people around at some point. And then we probably hold out here. rationed snacks what I would want to do is try to get out of the city as fast as I could but we're here so we have to deal with what's here I think getting on a boat would be a good idea yeah but you'd have to get from here
Starting point is 03:18:40 to the boat yeah you'd have to get from here to the Hudson and I mean you're dying on the way there I mean the best case scenario you know call up dirty water dawn like meet us by you know what's it called Hudson Yards yeah meet us by Hudson Yards
Starting point is 03:18:55 Yeah, meet us by Hudson Yards and, you know, pick us up on a boat. But, like, we could get to Hudson Yards in about 10 minutes on foot. Yeah, but you literally had to battle through Times Square coming down. Like, Mazden Square Garden, we're in one of the highest populated areas. We'd be better off, like, waiting for some sort of help to come. Wait until nightfall. I would jump on a city bike and just one of the electronic ones. Dude, you'd get, he said fast zombies.
Starting point is 03:19:22 If it was slow zombies, we're gearing up. We have some sort of bar stool. shield that's in here it's like a captain america shield with barswell logo on it i'm going out with my axe and shield wrapping up my legs to make sure like like i have a pair of boots at my desk making sure i can get bit by zombies on the floor and then just battling my way like with if it's slow zombies yep how fast are we talking here like are we talking last of us fast because they're fast he said last of us fast he said this isn't walking dead walking dead zombies we probably they actually have a decent chance of avoiding them
Starting point is 03:19:57 just by being fleet of foot. If you get to a boat, though, you're good because they can't swim to you. And even if they try, just kick them off as they're trying to climb up on the boat. What about you, Aaron? I'll probably hit up the local gun shop. Raid that motherfucker.
Starting point is 03:20:15 Then we'll try to stock up on some canned goods, non-perishables. then go grab my babies Aaron also has a basement Yeah You got a basement That's nice No I don't have a basement
Starting point is 03:20:34 Oh it's Texas yeah Do Texas people not in basements? For the most part No there's floods man It floods too much here I just figured you have a house You have a basement I got an attic
Starting point is 03:20:44 We're talking about the We're talking about Buckees Because we stopped in Buckees in our most recent trip to Houston. Jealous. And Buckies is a very nice store, very clean store, and I'm about to set big T off with this take, but it's too much.
Starting point is 03:21:00 Buckies is, it's too big. I got overwhelmed in Buggies. I went to the U-TRA. I went into Buckey's. It's too much for my small brain. And I wandered around, and there was just too much stuff to choose from, and I just, I panicked.
Starting point is 03:21:15 I just bought a diet Dr. Pepper, Dr. Pepper Zero, and then walked out of the store, and I was like, I couldn't make up my mind about what I want if they're like in Yankee. Yep, yep. Joe ass up out of here, fam,
Starting point is 03:21:28 it ain't for you dogs. That's a you, probably. There's too many options. Who says that? Someone with a tiny brain. Too many high quality options with an amazing place to go to the restroom. It'd be a bad quarterback.
Starting point is 03:21:40 It'd be a bad quarterback. There was a lot of recruiting coaches if they take out quarterbacks to a restaurant, they'll take them to like a diner with many choices. Oh, I love dinners. And they want to, no, no, but, like, they want to make sure that they make their choice within, like, a very succinct amount of time. That sounds like some draft day.
Starting point is 03:21:58 Nobody went to his birthday shit. No, no. I, he couldn't decide if you wanted the patty melt or if you want to. I've never heard of that. The hamburger. Never heard of that one time. For quarterbacks, just to see their decision-making skills. No, never heard of that shit.
Starting point is 03:22:12 That was something I heard growing up. Where'd you hear that from, Billy? I think I heard it from a quarterback coach. How would they even know, unless. you verbalize like oh i really don't know if i want this or this they could just look at the menu and be doing that all in their head i don't think i like when i go to a restaurant i don't like talk about no no where's the data correlating your food choice to your decision making on a fourth and three i think i think the story was that a guy like a famous coach was recruiting a quarterback
Starting point is 03:22:42 he took him to a restaurant and asked the waitress to come up and ask for his order really quickly and that he would order first the coach and then try to hurry up the quarterback who is choosing like a blitz yeah and see what his choice was on his feet and whether he really got what he wanted see if he had a hot read ready to go yeah and basically it was to like judge his uh decision making and like you're playing quarterbacks a lot of one two three options checking all your options see what's the best option and make that decision in the moment and like relay the communication or make the right choice i think i saw this i saw this i saw this online a couple weeks ago
Starting point is 03:23:21 and a friend of the show, sexual Jumanji, his response was nothing. I already ate because I come prepared. That's a good answer. What? Show him that you're prepared. Like, you already ate. Wild Boy would go to dessert
Starting point is 03:23:39 first. Just get the cheesecake right off the bat. Or cheesecake right off the bat. I've been ordering milkshakes a lot lately with meals. I can tell. Yeah. Hey Billy's got the Gotee growing in right now
Starting point is 03:23:53 Check out the YouTube To look at Billy's Goatee looks like Kyle Trask Well it's hoping That it slims my face He does look like Kyle Trask Doesn't
Starting point is 03:24:00 Putting on some weight So Yeah Now you get He's slimming You got a battle with Baker Yeah Yeah
Starting point is 03:24:06 All right Do we have any more voicemails No that's it Okay Buckees I'm not I'm not talking shit on Buckees
Starting point is 03:24:14 It was just You're talking shit on yourself It was too much It was too much For me to make a decision This is a self-owned. It is. Maybe it is.
Starting point is 03:24:23 Although I did say... By far, your worst thing you've ever had. I did say that if you locked me in a Buckees, I think it, like the zombie apocalypse situation, I think you could survive in a Buckees until you died your natural course of life. I think that there's enough stuff in there where you would just, you wouldn't die of starvation. The diabetes might kill you. There's plenty of water and Gatorades and I guess, Gatorade has sugar on it.
Starting point is 03:24:50 There's plenty of water. Anyway, that just shows you would be a terrible SEC quarterback. It does. Yeah. They probably walk into Buckees and they go, boom, boom. They go, brisket sandwich. Yeah. That's a touchdown play.
Starting point is 03:25:01 It is. Yeah. I got lost in the quaint home signs that they had there. If you have a lake house, go to Buckees and you can just furnish your entire building. Great home goods section. There's everything. Yep. But your tiny brain can't comprehend that.
Starting point is 03:25:17 Yeah. Maybe not. But I'm looking at deep fried Cajun pecanes on one side. In front of me, I got the beef jerky. To my left, I have every snack under the sun. If I go to a, I mean, Mad Dog, you know, as somebody who's an aficionado of roadside food courts and gas stations in Ohio. If I go in, sometimes I find comfort in having a limited selection of snacks
Starting point is 03:25:41 because it makes it very easy for me to figure out, okay, I want the cheese at grooves. I don't want the funnions, you know? Yeah. And then at that point, it's like, oh, at least for my Ohio rest stops, it's like, I don't want to go to this one because this one doesn't have the Savarro or the whatever. Yeah. So you got to make a thing out of it. But I do want, I want to go to a Buckees more than anything. Very nice restrooms. Great restrooms in the Buckees. Someone sent me, oh, shoot, what were they called? Like, they were like, oh, shoot. Like, droppings, like, beaver droppings or something? Beaver nuggets. Yes.
Starting point is 03:26:18 Those are good. Those are really good. I like the Buckees beaver nuggets. I don't know what they are, but they're really good. It's like a corn pop type. Yeah. Yeah. It's got salty and sweet in it.
Starting point is 03:26:29 The beaver nuggets are good. I did, for the record, I got the Cajun pecans, the fried Cajun pecans. Very, very good. Glad your brain could finally decide on something. On my second trip end, I sat in the car and I said I was overwhelmed. And Spider was like, go back inside, King. We'll wait for you Now were you in the car
Starting point is 03:26:50 Because apparently there was a car Full of Bucky's haters From this office Were you in that vehicle? I was not in that vehicle I was in a car Of people that really enjoyed What they got from Buckees
Starting point is 03:27:01 Okay But they agreed with me That there's too much stuff Titus was with me at the time Oh so you were in the car of haters I was Titus Max No Titus was in my car
Starting point is 03:27:11 Max was in the other car Okay I heard they were in the same one But I heard there was So there were two cars full of haters then Well, I'd say like one and a half cars. Okay.
Starting point is 03:27:20 I wasn't hating on, I was just like it's too much. I got overwhelmed. I'm sorry, I got overwhelmed inside a bucket. You want to go somewhere where you have options. Sometimes. Not too many. But too many options. Like there are people with shopping carts, like full shopping carts like on a grocery run.
Starting point is 03:27:36 Being prepared. Yeah. That's some good smokers outside. They got everything. You didn't plan. You weren't prepared. I was not prepared. Also, maybe this has something to do with it.
Starting point is 03:27:45 I had already eaten because I didn't know that we're going to stop. out of Buckees. So then pick up a snack. If you're not eaten, it doesn't matter when you walk into Buckees. I'm sorry. I'm sorry Buckees. I did buy a T-shirt, though.
Starting point is 03:27:58 I bought a Bucky shirt because I think I support Buckees in theory, but maybe it was a bad time, bad place for me. If I hadn't had breakfast, I probably would have gone in there hungry and been like, oh, I want that. Is Brandon Miller handshake me in wrong place, wrong time? Yes, yes, exactly.
Starting point is 03:28:15 I think you just need to go in there with someone that has like, expertise in a Buckees. Like, if you went it with Big T, you would have, like, you would have, like, you would have known what to go. I don't even consider myself a Buckees expert. I've been like three times, but that's why they're so magical. Like, it's a, it's a rare experience that you only get to have every so often. Yeah. They, you start seeing the signs on the highway 50 miles, 40 miles. You feel that tingling. I've had great experiences at Buckees in the past. This was not my first Buckees. And I've loved, I've loved Buckees in the past. I, I enjoy the restrooms. I've enjoyed the restrooms. I've, I've enjoyed their food selection this one time i went in i was like this buckies is too much for me now you literally walked in and you you you should have been like this ain't my first rodeo this ain't my first buckies and you look you look like an amateur in there i did it was an amateur performance you folded it was an aberration it's my one and only time having a bad experience of buckies also i asked them if they could point me to like the the part of the store that had any sort
Starting point is 03:29:11 of medicine in it because i need some pepsid ac for heartburn and the guy sent me there's one tiny aisle That has any sort of medicine in it They only had Tums And I needed something harder than Tums at the time So I was disappointed that they did not carry My antacid of choice that I wanted That was a negative experience I mean that sounds like an excuse
Starting point is 03:29:29 No that's why you didn't have a good time It's because you were having This sounds like excuse That's just a fact Like you were sweating You were like I was sweating a little bit I mean I had just been in Houston
Starting point is 03:29:39 Austin and Lake Charles Louisiana For about five days So I was dealing with some indigestion Yeah and you're like You're doing the stomach aches sweats. Yeah. No one can have a good time when you're having the stomach. Yeah.
Starting point is 03:29:50 This might have been a more personal experience. This is why Lamar hasn't been signed. Yeah. Good point. Digestive issues. Yep. Causing bad decision making. I got to be better.
Starting point is 03:30:01 Next time at Buckees, I'm going to show up and I'm going to show out. And I'm going straight to the freshly prepared food section. And I'll get a breakfast taco and I'll enjoy it. So. I hope so for your sake. I blew this Bucky's experience. This was disappointing to hear. I actually agree with you guys.
Starting point is 03:30:18 I don't think that it's really a bucket. If you're having a crisis of stomach acid reflux and you go into a buckies after already eaten so you're not hungry, you might not have the best time. Also, very limited Coke selection there. They had about infinity different styles of Dr. Pepper, Dr. Pepper's strawberries and cream, full sugar, real sugar, Dr. Pepper. Yes, as they should. Cherry vanilla, Dr. Pepper.
Starting point is 03:30:44 Yes. Well, you don't get Coke when you're going to. Buckees, you get the Buckees Sasparilla. That's what you do. Okay, well, I fucked that one up too. So I ended up going out with a Dr. Pepper Zero, which is fantastic. But I was looking for a Cherry Coke Zero or a Cherry Vanilla Coke Zero. And they had just like four options of Coke that you could have.
Starting point is 03:31:01 They had Diet Coke, caffeine-free, Coke-heavy. Actually, they only had three. What's Coke heavy? Just regular, regular Coke. Do they have Mexican Coke? No. No, they didn't. They only had three types of Coke, and they had probably 12 different types of Dr.
Starting point is 03:31:14 Pepper. Arian, you know what they do have at Buckees that's hard to find is the Dr. Pepper icy. Ooh. At least they do at the one in Cookville, Tennessee. Shout out. I should have had, I should have gotten the Sasparilla. It's going to haunt me. If I had to do it all over again, I, I, you, next, okay, we're moving on.
Starting point is 03:31:36 We're on to the next bucky's. The way you're talking about your Bucky's experience is remind me of how I was reacting when I thought the guy had a gun in his backpack. like kind of freezing up I froze in a big moment do I tackle him bad SEC quarterback what's sasperilla root bear yeah
Starting point is 03:31:53 birch beer sasperilla root beer kind of all fruits from the same tree all right solid episode we'll see you guys next week I think I've booked large to talk Japan
Starting point is 03:32:08 also Mr. Foster will be with us Mr. Foster will be with us we got some big guests coming up We have a big week next week. I would say one of our most recent white whales has agreed to come into the studio for an interview. So I'll just leave it at that. Let's brainstorm some white whales.
Starting point is 03:32:26 It's an actual, like, massive guest. Yes, we have a massive, massive guest coming next week. A couple. I would not be surprised if this person, I'm not specifying male or female, change their mind. It wouldn't shock me. About coming on our show. If it was like a prank, that would be funny.
Starting point is 03:32:47 I'm still not convinced that y'all have been in contact with the actual people who would say this person can come on. I think it might be, but I hope they do. This is a sick and sadistic April Fool's joke that McKenzie and I are playing on you guys. Wait, did you send that text to us on April Fool's? Wait, did I? No, it was a day or two after. Because I've heard from other people that have also talked to me about this interview. And so if you told like five people to lie to us, I would be furious.
Starting point is 03:33:16 Yeah, I don't think, I don't think. Word spread quickly. People started coming up to me as they being like, y'all are getting that person. Yeah. Is this like a yak prank? What, yak prank? No. No.
Starting point is 03:33:29 It's going to be an awesome, it's going to be an awesome interview. All right. We'll see you guys next Tuesday. Love you guys.
