We are, we are, we are live in our own minds. Smell that summer air, Mark. If you're watching this. You smell that grill smoke? We're not live. Mm-hmm. But we're live because I, I see you. Yes, I'm alive, yes.

Yeah. So, like, it's confusing because I usually say we're live from Chicago, but we're not actually technically live. This is a pre-report. And we aren't, but we aren't in Chicago. But we aren't un-live. No. We are in Chicago.

We're not, we're not un-lived. There's a chance. Oh, my God. there's a chance okay but let's just say we're all we're alive would we still run the episode we'd have to run the episode

okay all right I must have to be honest right now I'm the most likely person to not be here on July 1st I'm giving you permission yeah to whatever happens you can play this episode

I want if I die between recording this and I was putting it out I want like a little bit of a moment of silence at the top but then someone to like break the tension probably Brandon

but you're saying something out of maybe Connor. Connor, you just like say something crazy. Sure. And then you guys are back to laughing. Okay. But I would like to be respected. Or do you want respect?

Maybe a farting salute? A 21 farting salute. Line up seven of us. What? What's that? All right. July 1st. It is July 1st.

We are so all week, obviously you guys know we're not doing the live shows. We are pre-recording. And we thought we, We haven't done this, have we? Maybe we have, did you guys do one when I was on paternity leave? You do like a question? No, not really. We did like a T-Bob kind of get up to speed being like what's going on in the universe, what should I know?

But we- And T-Bob just was asleep that entire episode. Yes. Bored in the tears. Nothing caught with him at all. Tudis, you wrote a book? Yeah. What did he say the one episode?

Oh, it's really. Literally, he's like, I'm sorry. I don't know what is it true? Yeah. Anyway. We used, I mean, we had for the early listeners, the hat that's above your head. end up there was filled with listener submitted questions.

By the way, is it still filled with? Chat, no, it's empty now. Is it empty? It is empty. By the way, we never, your club trill. Yeah. I'm too trill.

Yeah, that's right. Little Wayne said you're too trill. Might be the trill show. That was over a month ago, dude. I know, but I'm, get over it. I was about a month. I think you know I brought it up every day since.

So we're going to do listener questions. And these are, now, we should say, Hey, Brandon, you didn't have a hand in coming up with these questions. I did not. I didn't either. So I don't know if these are all real questions. I don't know if Ebo got cute with it. You know, did Ebo sprinkle in some fake ones?

Did some fans get cute with theirs? The fans get cute with it. I have no idea. Ebo, you're the one that put out the call for this. About 250 responses. Some of them... You compiled them all. Yeah, I try to go get some good ones in terms of having, maybe getting a serious side out of you guys

or maybe like any sort of life advice you want to give. There are seven pages of questions. Yeah. And you guys, we can kind of go through. pick what we want to talk about. Like here's an example, Drew M from Raleigh, North Carolina wants to know. Did Joe Paul really know? Oh, that's a great question.

That's a great question, Drew. I'll start. Yes. I got to say that all evidence to me, having studied the case from abroad, now I wasn't in Pennsylvania. I wasn't right there. I didn't grow up in Pennsylvania. All evidence to me says yes.

Joe Paw knew. I'm going to say yes. Okay. It's a yes for me. Ebo? Probably. All right. TJ?

Spin again Connor Are you taking the longest What's going on with your Are you drowning? Are you okay? Do you need to be saved? Would you like us to move on the next question?

Buzzard's just deep throat What's going on? He could be stuck in it What if we got Connor in a bottle Like a ship in a bottle? Oh my God If we had a Connor in a bottle. Do you, okay, so we'll get to the questions.

Before we do that. Do you build a bottle around the ship? No. No, they're building the boat in the boat. They're building the boat. In the ship, yeah, in the bottle, yeah. And they're using just long tweezers or some shit. Like, using like long.

I always thought they, I always thought that it was like some sort of, you know how it. Like a pop-up book? Okay, yeah. You turn a pop-up book and all of a page pops up. I thought it was a pop-up ship where you pull the string and the ship pops up. You build the ship on the outside. You slide it in, you pull the string, it pops up. That's a lot of sense.

Here we go. Here's a guy. That guy built that ship in that bottle? It's like they like squeeze the pieces. Yeah, you're. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. You're pretty right, Brandon. Yeah.

You're spot on. There you go. You're spot on. When's the last time you thought about a fucking ship in a bottle? So sick, dude. Who came up with shipping a bottle? I don't know. Why a bottle?

I don't know. Ebo, let's save these questions later. We got another shit to talking about. This is fascinating. That's one of the things that I saw that I feel. is a lot in like cartoons and stories and shit, but doesn't actually exist. Like the Deutsch

trench coat thing. Yeah. Like, big trench coat is all over. Have you guys ever come across a message in a bottle on the beach? No. Have you? No. The way you said it. Right. It's certainly We should try. Yeah, I did make it seem to. Do you want to go put a message

in a bottle and throw it in Lake Michigan? She says you're in a day. You're just, I'm dead serious. We're going to write out a message. You're going to put in a bottle. You're throwing in the lake. Yes. And we'll Make sure that we include some form of contact. So if somebody were to get it... You can't just throw it from the beach because the person...

Yeah, you got to be like... Person 25 feet down the beach, you're going to get it like that day. You're going to throw it in the middle of the lake. You got to throw it out of an airplane. You got to swim out to the middle of Lake Michigan. Okay. Yeah. We'll figure it out.

You want to troll on the message? I mean, you could. That'd be pretty funny. You pretend like it's an... Like there's a berry treasure somewhere. So a lake in central Pennsylvania. We put a message in a bottle at Joe Panu. Joe Panu.

Yeah. Yeah. Or a picture of a penis would be fine. Or just the word, you write the word penis. I write the word penis. Yeah, yeah. That could work.

All right, let's do some questions. How do we want to administer? We're just, just, put the question down real quick. Yeah. Like, I want to,

I got a bottle. A perfectly fine bottle. Right. I don't know what to do with the bottle. It's a big ass bottle, though. And I want to use the bottle as a decoration for some, something. presumably I already used the bottle for something

Right I already drank a lot of liquid came in the bottle Something out of it Yes so its function Right It's already over I also need I could dispose of it

Recycle it I need a ship around here In some form or fashion But where are you gonna put a ship You can't just put a ship in the window Can't put a ship on the couch Yeah These are

Yeah These are men that Don't want to recycle their bottles But they don't know what to do with them I'm gonna bet you I also love ships Can I make a bet with you right now on July 1st,

2026. If we do opening day again, we will get a ship on a bottle. Probably more than one. We will get multiple ships in bottles. People put other shit in bottle. Can you build something else in a bottle? Can you build a fucking, like the...

Well, the message in a bottle. Yeah, but... Studio in a bottle. There might be like dust on a bottle. Dust on a bottle, yeah. Don't let it fool you about what's inside. Can you build like a Lego set in a bottle? I don't know.

I don't know. We got questions to get to. I'm looking at a diagram of somebody solving a Rubik's cube, in a bottle. Let your body bottle. I need to see that. You put Robin Williams

in a bottle one time. That was kind of crazy. That was a lamp. Was that a lamp? Wasn't he a lamp? It was a lamp. Yeah. It's a genie's a lamp.

Come on. You're a fucking war. Now that you're a Latin Lord. Okay. Now that we're here, put the questions down. Now that we're here, the ancient storytellers

wanted to do a story about three wishes and a genie. Right. And they had to come up with a mechanism. What can I put him in? Yeah. And they came up with a lamp. Could have picked anything.

Could have picked anything. Could have picked a bottle. I will say the lamp from Aladdin's pretty sick. It looks awesome. A good aesthetic for that lamp. It's a... If you... T.J. pull up the lamp from Aladdin, please.

Like the real... Like the real... Yeah. Like, not the live action. I'm talking like the O.G. Yeah, that one. That's like a... That's a good looking lamp, I would say.

Can I say something, though? Also, you might be saying what I'm about to say. How was that a lamp? How's that a lamp? It's like a fucking teapot. Yeah. That's a teapot. I believe...

I had to look it up. That's just the teapot. You... you put the flame in there and then you leaned it over to light the actual other stuff. It was an oil lamp used for light in the ancient Middle East and North Africa. Did you go ahead and pull up someone using an

oil lamp in real life? And we will get to the question. And we appreciate all the questions you guys said that for sure. Ours are just more pressing right now. We do appreciate you. You guys understand that there's a ship in a bottle and they put a genie in a lamp. Could have put a genie in anything. They could have put a genie inside a house.

Right. And the genie would be comfortable. You have to knock on the door three times Genie comes out. Yeah, here we go. All right. Now here we do. This is important. Okay, all right.

Out of light. Aladdin oil lamp. Well, where is it? All right. I don't see it. That's not a land. That's not. None of this.

That's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, Yeah, let's take a look at this one. This is going to have our answer. And here it is right here. Here we go. And as soon as it stops. Yeah. That's her again.

And it's the same woman. Right. This woman has a monopoly. Same lamp. It's the same woman with the same lamp. There's already, okay. Do you want to have a genie lamp? What the hell?

Yeah. How to use a genie lamp. And you guys did send in questions. Great question. And we appreciate it. Six pages of questions right here. How are we going to do this? Connor, you're going to read them?

Sure. You want to read them? I'll start off with a good one. Well, I mean, we want to hit them all. Yeah. So here we are. Well, he's just lighting. All right on those questions, Connor.

We got to do it. He's lighting it with a lighter. These are oil burning lamps. Specifically, they were made to burn olive oil. Now, I bought one a couple years ago when I got into winter camping real heavy. I bought a can of a thing. Why is? Oh, so it's just right there.

That's the lamp. You're not using that to light anything. That just is. That is a lid. Oh, it has the handle so you can carry it. That's the actual thing. All right. All right.

Wait, stop. Go back. Go back. What's, is that a raccoon? The skinned raccoon? That's a skin raccoon? Why is there a skin raccoon? I don't know, man.

This guy's got interesting. I don't know, man. How many genies and. Yeah. What are all those like potions on his shell? What is he got going on there? We've got potions. Bro's just got potions.

All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right.

All right. All right. is from Chandler and Texas. How did BFW and Mark meet slash decide to do a show together? Mark, would you like to answer that question? Yeah. It was an arranged marriage.

It was an arranged marriage, yeah. An arranged marriage. Yeah. That's how I describe it. Mutual friend put us together. PFT? Yeah. Yeah.

It was like, hey, you guys should do a show together? You got hired. Yeah, I got hired and we met. I will say when I got hired here, I knew I was going to do that. show. Like part of the discussion with getting hired here was that I was going to do this show. Yeah.

So you already knew. I knew this was going to, like I was piecing together what my role in this company would be. So you signed in March, right? Yeah. And we met at the Super Bowl in January or February of that year. Right. At that point, I kind of had an idea.

Yeah. Yeah. That we were going to put something together. We were probably going to put something together. We didn't have the name yet. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We decided. And when you showed up March, we were putting a show together.

So we knew the move to Chicago. coming in that fall. Right. And then we put the show together. I came to you, said I got these two guys. Yeah, I remember that when you said you had these two guys. And I said I got two guys from, uh, I had already known T.J. I had met you. Did you have been put on your show.

Yeah, you'd been put on my show. And I'd also like met you at the Super Bowl. The one year in Arizona. Yeah, humble to handshake. Yeah, we did. We had a bad handshake situation. So I had already known T. So like, TJ was going to be on the show.

You were working on my show already. I was like doing remote, whatever. So like that was, these two were the wildcards. I was like, I'm trusting Brandon with these things. I honestly don't, and this is being honest as I can be. I don't know how I pick Connor. Because me and Connor didn't work together. I had seen him and talk to him a lot.

You admired him from afar. I saw him like a nice car in the showroom. I was like, I'd like take that thing. Did you sense his desperation? Like you could just get a. Well, I think I said, are you moved to Chicago? And he said, yeah. And I said, fucking really?

And you moved to Chicago because, or was it the other way around, Mook? Oh, that was a part of it. I had approached Big Cat because at the time I was working exclusively on the act behind the scenes and he made a big announcement that the Act and everybody in his orbit really was going to be moving to Chicago and I said, could I please move to Chicago

because I hated New York? Right. Not the office, just hated living in New York. And then, yeah, there was some mix-up where he officially gave me a greenlight weeks later in a meeting with Hank because he thought I was MOOC or something like that. I don't know.

Red-headed Connor. Yeah, that was pretty much it. Ebo, I... But I was always, yeah, I was... Had produced PIC Central and had been around me for a lot. So I knew we were good. We were ready. Me and Brandon's first meeting was also a bit arranged.

I got hit up by Nick Tarani to meet him at Fish Market in Fidei. So why come to Fish Market and have some... Was that our first fucking meeting? And me, Brandon, and Nick Tarani sat down, ate fried rice out of to-go containers, had some beers. And he said, would you like to produce Pic Central? Wow. And then he one day was just like, are you moving to Chicago?

You worked on Pic Central? For a year and a half? I didn't know that. It was great. In the booths. We did him as like somebody that was doing like really good prep sheets and really good extra questions and stats and stuff. And it was crazy.

I watched every episode. Uh-huh. I still didn't know. Yeah. I worked on that show for years. Yeah. And there you go. That's how we.

That's pretty much it. Yeah. Central Pipeline. We met and decided. We met in February. We decided to do a show together kind of arranged because PFT knew I was looking for another show and knew he needed a show. Yeah, I mean, part of, like, me coming to Barstool was I knew I wanted to do like the college basketball show, but I also part of it was like, I, because Big Cat was big on all of us being in the office and I wanted to be in the office and like I'd been working remote. And even when I lived in L.A. and I was doing what I was doing out there, I'd only do like two days a week or whatever.

So I was like, it'd be nice to kind of get to the office every day. And if I'm going to be in the office every day, we might as well have something every day. And then we talked and we're like, why don't we just, you know, there's like a chunk of time before the act that we could maybe do a live show. and then yeah Connor do you remember when I asked you? Yeah yeah yeah yeah What did I say? You literally just said are you moving to Chicago? I said yeah

And you said okay I'm looking to put together a little bit of a team for a new show We're putting the team together Yeah Because I had been on unnecessary roughness Once or twice Okay yeah because I was fascinated With your broadcaster voice

That might have been it What did you know about me? About you? Yeah Honestly not a lot I knew you were in the dozen Yeah And I went to go see you play

live for was it smocken yeah smocken yeah i saw you live at terminal five in uh in new york city but aside from that i didn't know much i didn't know you had a book i didn't know the club trilling lore i was like teabob you you know i was jealous of you as fuck back in like 2007-eight why's that i was a struggling sports writer making eight dollars an hour and then you had this like hot-ass blog and and i was making zero you were making but you were making it's making you were making a name and i was a nobody Yeah. And I was like, God damn, I guess that's how you do it.

And then I would like start a half-ass blog. I had a blog about husbanding when I was first married. Shut the fuck. I kept trying to. You got a blog about husbanding? Called it the rookie husband. Oh. It was when I first got married.

I did four of them, I think. I did four of them. And I was just trying to capture something. That's not a bad piece of advice, I guess. It's just like find a niche. Find something that no one else is doing. Yeah. Do it.

And no one else was doing it. My wife said, I'm not comfortable with you putting all of our stories on the internet. And I was like, all right, so I just stopped doing it. All right, there's the answer to that question. Well, the next one ties in really nicely with that from Jack M in Boise. That's in Idaho. I just got married two weeks ago. He proposed in a ball know or hat.

And he's wondering, what is your biggest advice for someone who's about to get married? Preferred to be answered by the couch boys. He just got married. So, right. Because my biggest advice for someone about to get married is don't do it. Right. But he just got married. So what do we say now?

You kind of waited a little too late to ask us, Jack. I mean, even though you didn't ask us, you asked Couch Boys. Yeah. And you did ask, and I just like to point out, and not a big deal. Two-fests of this room is married. Right. And he asked. The three-fifths?

He asked the three-fits. He said preferred. You guys used to answer that. You can't say that. Is there something about the three-fits? That's the one fraction you can't say. Is there something about the three-fifths you have a problem with this? Let's meet the middle. Let's meet the middle. Let's meet the middle.

Let's come to an agreement that works for everybody here. Okay? All right. You guys, your vote will count fully. Your advice will count full. We're married. So our vote should count more. Okay.

And we will only have our vote count for three-fits of a vote because there's three of you. Yeah, right. Right? That works out for everybody. That's a good compromise. Okay. It's a mutual agreement. Kyle, is you going to answer him or not?

advice for being married don't become roommates lay that shit down love that don't turn into room that's actually a really good advice can I go off of that though making out is a totally fun thing to do

and it doesn't always have to lead to sex because there are studies about this you know this there are studies that it's the most unmarried answer that has ever been given No, I've done research on this. There are people who say, sex therapists who say, make out with your spouse at least once a day.

And if it leads to sex, great. But it doesn't always have to lead to sex because that's what keeps the spark alive. Hunter, if I made out with my wife and it didn't lead to sex, but that's that the problem. I'm going to burn the fucking house down. Because then you only have sex and nothing else. But if you have a little bit of like an in-between, then it keeps that passion and that spark alive. Who the fuck do you think you are?

What study are you talking about? I'll find the video. Why are you aware of this study? What woman asked study? Did you read? Why? Just make out and don't fuck. Why are you watching this video?

It popped up on my algorithm. Why? And then I was interested and I was like, oh yeah, I guess that kind of makes sense. Your advice to him, this married man is, hey, pussy's overrated, just make me. No, no. I'm saying fuck as much as you want. But also, make sure to make out. Make sure to make out.

Kiss. Don't fuck. Show affection. in other ways other than sex. I'm not... You could do both. And this is why we have them in the show, Brandon. This is...

But also... Every married man watching this wants to grab you by the short collar right now. I'll find the video. I don't know. I don't want to see the video. I don't want my wife to know that that's possible. I don't want my wife to know that she has the ability to make out with me and then leave it at that.

Why would you put that information on? There will come a time. I lie to my wife as a man that's almost 40 years old. I lied to her and say I have blue balls. Like I'm 13. Like I say like if we don't do this. Like my penis will explode. When I was in the dating game before I got married and I would make out with a chick and didn't get anywhere.

I was like, God damn. I just wish I was married so I could just fuck. Yeah. There are no point. There are other ways to get in the cookie jar. But we don't have to constantly be. What other ways to get what? What?

What? What? With the blue balls. Like that's fine. That works. Lying. He just said. I lied to my wife, yeah.

But now that she knows that I'm lying, she's not, she's going to be like... Yes! This is this is this is a woman. Who's the expert? What website is this? It's a woman. I'm the expert. It's Britney Wong.

When you got that wrong, bitch? Brandon. Brandon. You got that long, bitch. No, all respect to her. I'll respect. All respect. All respect.

All respect to the world. All respect. She ain't married either, dude. She doesn't know. She don't know. Before they follow the ex- Who's the actual expert? They're out to make out.

Listen. In a viral TikTok video, click the viral TikTok video. Oh, my God. All right. This is, this actually might be what I saw. What is GRW?

I'm a licensed psychotherapist specializing in... This is it. Yeah, this is it. It's how it usually goes in long-term relationships. When you first start dating each other, it's like you can't keep your hands off each other,

right? You're always touching. It's a woman, but this is a woman. But the pattern for most people is that once they get into a long-term relationship, they really stop touching and kissing so much. And eventually it gets to the point where the only time that you're like really kissing each other is when you're trying to initiate sex. But what happens for a lot of people, especially if you're the lower sex-strike partner in the relationship. Freezer, freeze it right there.

Freeze it, freeze it, freeze it, freeze it. What about this woman applying makeup or whatever, whatever, you're, you know, whatever. routine she's going through, a facial routine. What about this woman talking to her audience of women suggest you should give this advice to Jack M from Boise, Idaho? I thought it was good advice.

I thought it was like... Also, you can, you can smooch, you can hug, you can like cuddle. There's so many things. But you're saying make out. You're saying slip the tongue, get hot and heavy, and then hit the brakes. Yeah.

That's a different thing. When you put a ring on it, you can throw that thing down whenever you want. Yeah. I'm saying you have to always hit the brakes. We have. Don't forget to cherish her. Jack,

do not make out with your wife. Don't let your wife watch. Don't forget to. Jack, Jack, we got to invite. Wear that shit out, dude. Keep the spark alive in other ways. Yeah. Yeah.

We're two questions in. Can I do one right here? Noah from Charlottesville wants to know. What experience have you had as parents that have changed you as a person for the better? Oh my God. Wait, what? Noah from Charlottesville. What experiences have you had as parents that have changed your person?

I mean. That's pretty deep. Right. That's, it's kind of hard to go from Conner's question. Yeah. It's a tough transition, Ebo.

I'm in it right now. My baby girl turns one here at a couple. Well, if you're watching this, she's one year old. It's literally every day is like changing me. I don't know. It's crazy. Like watching someone learn how to do things

is so cool, Brandon. It's like the coolest thing in the world to watch her. she starts waving. Like we've been trying to teach her out a wave and now she can wave. And just like waving will make me cry. So I don't know. That's my serious answer is that like,

I'm at the stage where you become a new father where it's just literally everything your kid does and as they're learning that they have 10 fingers and they're looking at them and they're like, what does this do? And what is it? Like all of it is beautiful. All of it's beautiful.

Experiences you've had that have changed you as a person for the better. I think as you go along in parenting, you will realize that some things you used to do or things you used to want to do. Now you get to do and you want to do with with them. And you get to relive, not relive your childhood, but usually get to live their childhood and watch them hit a ball for the first time. Yeah.

Watch them do all. And all you really, instead of worrying about yourself 24-7, you're worrying about other people and that is a healthy place to be. Yeah, I would say that's the big thing is like the second my daughter was born, I don't matter anymore. And I think when people have kids and they're a little younger, like I was, I'm, I was sort of sad that like I'm having a kid like I'm not old as fuck but like you know

I had friends that had kids when they were like 24 or whatever and I'm you know closer to 40 the the benefit of that is I think when you're like 25 years old and you have a kid and you learn quickly that your life doesn't matter anymore that's a tough pill to swallow because you're like I'm in the prime of my life yeah I want my life

to matter but I also have to keep this baby alive this sucks but like I was at a point in my life where I'm like I kind of I don't know not that I'm washed up I figured it out I've already done it all I've done done I've done what needs to be done. And you're already rich. I'm already rich.

I'm married. I already figured everything out. So having the baby and then realizing, oh, yeah, this is all that matters. I've actually loved every second of it. I dive into parenting. Like, the idea that nothing in my life matters anymore except my child, I welcome that thought. And I love it.

And I throw a question in here? Go ahead. Do you use that camera? I use it all the time. Yeah. I use it. Not only do I use it, Brandon, I use it solely for her. That's what.

Yeah, that's what for. My wife wants to take pictures of other things. No, no, no, no. Baby girl is not in the picture. That's the baby camera. We go for Christmas, we go to my mom and dad, and then my brother and sister bring their kids. And, like, the nieces and nephews are playing over here.

And, like, my mom picks up the camera. And she's like, why don't you guys get together? I'll take a picture with Mark's camera. I'm like, no the fuck you won't. My daughter's not in that picture. Yeah. So we use it. It's all her.

It's all her. It's a great camera. Anyway, that was. I did a pictures on that camera. You are on that camera. Yeah. It's a hard. That was a hard pivot, though.

That was a good question, though. I don't know. I could talk for days about being a parent. It's great. There's a good mix of trying to get a serious side out of you guys. And also, Connor, when will you date a Latina? Yeah, from Cindy in Los Angeles. I'm assuming.

Connor, when will you date a Latina? That's what you belong with. Yeah. From Cindy in L.A. Listen, that's why I'm doing salsa dance lessons in a mere few weeks. in a mirror Are you doing them in the mirror? No, no, no, no, no, no.

In a mirror, M-E-R-E-R-E-E-A-R-E-A-R-E- You meet a mirror at the rabbit hole? No, I think I'm a... So, question. Yeah. Are you really doing salsa dancing lessons? Yeah, no. Now that basketball season and the playoffs and everything are winding down. Yeah.

That was getting the way of your salsa dancing learning? Well, you know, because every night there was a big game. Are you really learning salsa dancing as a way to attract Latinas? Not necessarily, no. I mean, it's definitely an ad benefit. But you want to be ready in case you do meet a Latina. Have you dated a Latina before? No.

What's your definition of dating? I thought you should say Latina. No, no, no, no, no. What's your definition of Latina? I've never been in a relationship. You want like a fire realita? You think you can handle like a fire real Latina? Yeah.

Billy, you're so stupid. You waste there you lose all of money. Conno you're so stupid. Potter, you're so stupid. Why not both? Why not both? You know, we'll see how it goes. But I just want to learn how to dance.

You think you can handle that? Yeah, of course. Huh? Nothing. I don't think you can handle a Latina. All right, fine. You're entitled to believe what you want to believe? You like being submissive?

Not necessarily. Like the... Are you like being in control in a relationship? It don't matter. I don't have a preference. But yeah, we'll see how good. That's an interesting... Connor, when will you date a Latina?

And it's not from, like, Rosalita. No. It's from Cindy. It's from Cindy in L.A. I don't know. It's a... Okay. Interesting.

It really makes you think. It does. But she is in LA, so she might do the thing. Oh, here's a good question for everybody. From Marcus in Michigan. When did you realize you had something with this show? I've watched this day one. It's easily my favorite show podcast now.

Thank you, Marcus in Michigan. When did you realize we had something? If we do have something. Yeah, you're a good one to answer. He did the Cracker Barrel Peg game. That was our first moment. That was like a really early moment where I was like that clicked. And like the thing about,

this show that I think works so well is like everybody kind of knows their role pretty pretty pretty to some extent maybe to or like pretty decently where like everybody knows when they're supposed to hold the ball and that felt like a good moment where like everybody was throwing the ball to each other yeah like a good rhythm that was like super early and super unpromised that was that was that to that go out was that was that part of the show proper or was that a test episode I think that was week one or two but honestly like in our just in early discussions like when you guys you know shot the intro video it seemed like that went well like it's mark and brandon's chemistry has like placated like I've known Brandon for a long time and I haven't seen him have have chemistry with another on on air person that spends this much time with them like like Mark and Brandon like

yeah I think you're right that that day that we spent in Chicago filming the intro videos was good yeah I don't I don't know I'm trying to think the cracker barrel thing I remember that was like the first moment of I didn't know if we had like a good show but I was just like that was the first time I like left the job and I went home and told my wife about how the show went yeah I was like we had something awesome happen on the show. She's like, what? And I was like, we did the Crackerbell thing. She's like, that's it. You guys won a child's game? And I was like, yeah, it was pretty sick. It was awesome.

Were you guys with us when we did the pre-rolls? Like we went around Chicago? You were with us? Okay. It was good. Or in Zupian. I think TJ stayed back to produce the act that day or something. Yeah.

I think like it was supposed to be shot one day, but we ended up having to move it or something. I got like 25,000 steps in that day. Yeah. You were a soldier. That was a big step day. I don't know. To be honest, so, like, I really, because even when we were at the old office, I knew it wasn't like a, it felt like a fever dream almost looking back on it. They're like, we were doing shows just out of that weird.

Yeah. Like gray ass room. Yeah. So I never, at no point that I ever, while we were doing those shows, think that this is what the final product would be. So I didn't even allow myself to think, like, do we have something? It was just kind of like, let's just bide our time until we open up the real office. Yeah. So, so, I don't know. Not long after we opened.

up this studio. Well, the first week we were here, it was Henny Friday, Henny Friday 3, where we'd sell the t-shirts. The merch was like, hey, just make sure we sell 50 shirts and we wound up selling like fucking 500.

Yeah, that could have been it then. Oh, yeah. Not long after we moved into this studio. Yeah. The Christmas episode maybe too, where it was just like, it felt like it all kind of. Taliban jackass.

Yeah, it all kind of came together as like a bow on the first iteration, the first practice run, and then all from there. Brandon S. from Fort Myers, Florida. I'm just read this one because it's easy. No question. Just really love the show,

haven't missed an episode, keep up the awesome work boys, family. Not sure how Evo let that one through because that's not a question at all. But thank you, Brandon S from Fort Myers, Florida. Yeah. Here's a question on the second page. Ben from Columbus, Ohio wants to know,

is there any event on planet Earth that Brandon would agree to do a Mincy tracking social media? Does it have to be something that Brandon would enjoy enough that he could have Mincy ruin it? Yeah, Mincy's funeral. So this is, this is, Brandon is the Tate roll is what you're saying.

Yeah. All those men. No, I, is there anything Brandon could, yeah. I, no,

I would never, I would, I would, I would never track Mints for a, for a video. And I don't dislike Mints. Me and Mints actually

have a lot of conversations. I, but I could never, I could never do that. I could never bring myself to film it, run to Twitter. Look what Mitz did. I don't,

I couldn't do that. Couldn't do that at all. Yeah. No, that's an honest answer for me. Yeah, you just wouldn't do it. No,

I wouldn't do it. to be honest, and I actually want to have this conversation with Tate. I think Tate's too good at it. Tate's launching, like, Tate's got his own content, his own stuff, and he works really hard at it, but I think he's too good at it to where he might get pigeonholed into following other people around, and Tate's good enough to be the person that gets followed around. So that's what I would say. What if you had like the ability to know that Mississippi State is going to beat Old Miss,

Ole Miss when Ole Miss is ranked number one in the country? Now we, now we, okay. And you somehow have the knowledge that this is going to happen. You're from the future. Yeah. And Ole Miss is number one in the country And somehow that you could spoil their entire season Yeah

And I might follow And it's like kind of how you were with the Texas game But you have the knowledge of how this is going to end So like the entire time you're with Mincey And he's happy What did you mean? Well you remember the Texas game Right

Sort of touched up right in your face Yeah Yeah But you know that that's going to happen If I knew that was going to happen to Mincey Yeah So if I develop pre-cognitive ability Right

And I know Mincey's about to go down And horrific flames Would I be there to document the flames? Yes. And that, if I get psychedelic, psychic powers, psychedelic powers, if I get a mushrooms, if I get a mushroom. If I's already eating mushrooms and I know Mincy's about to go down in flames, yes, I will be there to document. Okay, all right.

So those are the conditions. Those are the conditions. All right. All right. What else we got? There's, bless you. What? Rank the armed services and why?

Oh, Kyle from Fort Collins. Well, if he's from Fort Collins, he's in there. Is he an Air Force guy? Oh, Air Force is... Or they're Colorado Springs. Colorado Springs. But... It's close enough.

Close enough. You could be an Air Force guy. Okay, so we have... Let's write them down. All right. We write them down. We have Air Force. Yeah.

Space Force. We have Space Force. Right. Space Force. Right. We have Navy. Navy. We have Army.

Yeah, the Marines. And we have the Marines. Now, I don't believe the Coast Guard's armed. If I'm being honest. Is the Coast Guard an armed service? They're a service. They are a service? They are a service?

Are they? Are they? Do we have anything else? Do we have? Do we have... Do D.O.D. What is that? They just work like a job of the Pentagon.

Okay. So Army, Marine, Navy, Air Force, Space Force, Coast Guard. So Coast Guard's getting on. So Coast Guard is last. Coast Guard... If I ever get into a situation where I'm drowning and I need the Coast Guard, I love them. I think they're incredible. Thank you for your service.

Thank you. No question about that. What you guys do is amazing. No question. And you're braver than I am. And it seems cool as fuck. Seems awesome. If I'm on the beach and I look out and I see a Coast Guard,

helicopter or a coast guard boat. I'm like, wow. Go get them, boys. Yeah. But we're talking about the armed services. Right. And somebody was attacking my town or attacking my city. I don't want the Coast Guard to be the guns in between me and them. Right. Wait, are we really going to rank the armed services? I don't know if I want to do this.

I will say, I do that shirt. I could do another one. I do get confused about the armed services sometimes because like top gun is a Navy. Right. movie. Right. And that is confusing for my child brain. They're Navy pilots.

My little fucking tiny brain that I have. When I was a child, I was just taught the Air Force is in the air. The Navy is in the sea. Sure. The Army's on the land. The Marines is kind of the wild card. Do whatever. Do whatever.

So I don't, I get confused sometimes. I think I might say Navy thing because I like Top Gun. They're the best. Okay. And then the rest of them are tied. My grandfather was in the Navy. But he didn't make it to the war. So he didn't put up any shots.

He didn't put a... He didn't get on the scoreboard. He put up a trillion in the arms. When I registered a Selective Service, I chose the Air Force. Oh. I said, let me get up in a plane. Let me...

Yeah. Yeah, let me do that. Oh, you're thinking of a horse. How about... How about there's a tie for first, all of them? Yeah. America. How about that?

Are we doing American armed services? I guess we should ask that. It did just say rank the armed services. Yeah. I'd say America won. So the Russian Army. What is Space Force? Have they kind of...

How are they going to shoot? Just get me picking on them. So have they had their moment yet? Have they like, do they need a welcome to the league situation? Like do they? Like a Normandy situation? Yeah, I don't know. Like what is the Space Force is normally?

You want them to like attack the moon or something? I'm not saying they're not doing anything. But it's like at a certain point. point, you know, it's a use it or lose it thing. I think they're a farm system right now. What are they doing? I think there are a farm system that we're trying to stock up for the future. Okay. And we might, you know, we might

put a couple of guys down on the farm just to be ready just in case. And it's a good idea. Like, we should be ready? It's just, I, yeah. I just want to make sure. Also, should we read more into the fact that there is a space force? Should we read the fact that if the government's making a space force? Should we read into that? Great point, Brandon. That, uh, great point. Maybe they know something we don't. Great point, Brandon.

Okay. All right. I'm just thinking about that. I think about that's more about defending your, your satellites. Potentially. It's satellite defense system against other satellites. Has anybody ever asked a question on here? I saw it. Somebody asked it one day on the show I was on it. I can't remember.

I don't think it was here. You've never actually seen a picture of a satellite in orbit. You've only seen like a rendering of it. It's food for thought. I don't know. I don't know. Can you think in your mind what a satellite looks like in orbit? Or can you think of what in your mind,

do you come up with a rendering of what it looks like? I think I could get like a movie scene. I can do the, yeah. You're thinking of like Armageddon or Independence Day where it disappears into the big ship. Should we have seen a picture of a satellite? We don't really have photographers up there. There's no iPhones in space either.

That's a good question. That's great. That's a great point. What's next? We got what's your favorite sports moment slash memory that doesn't involve one of the teams you root for? Thank you guys for all the joy you bring into our lives. You're just skipping around.

That's from Henry in California. Yeah, well, I thought that we would just skip around here because it's like, it's a, I kind of just went to order of how they were submitted and we could just jump around and see if there's something

that was interesting. Okay. So you want to jump around? Yeah. Like Wisconsin. You came to get down? Get up, stand up, come on throw your hands up.

Okay. What was it? What's the best sporting event that does not involve a team that I care about? Sports moment. What's your favorite sports moment slash memory memory that's from Henry in California?

What's your favorite sports moment slash memory memory that doesn't involve one of the teams you root for? Thank you guys for all the joy you bring. My best friend and his dad had an extra ticket. to NLDS game 4 Nationals Cardinals

and Jason Worth had a walk off Homer to force game 5. That's awesome. That's sick. That's pretty sick. Yeah, it was pretty cool. Recency bias.

I mean, Braylon Mullins hitting that shot against Duke was... I was going to say... That was pretty awesome. I was going to say the Chris Jenkins shot. Chris Jenkins shot. Chris Jenkins shot. I was just...

I was watching it, but I was on the... I was living in Virginia and I was on the phone with my best friend Alan Brown. and we watched it together on the phone and that was a pretty cool fucking thing to do that. You know what? My answer going off of you being there, Ebo,

I was at a game, Syracuse played at Pittsburgh, I drove over from Columbus, Syracuse was ring number one in the country, Tyler Innes, hit a half-court shot, Syracuse was undefeated at the time. They're down by two, I want to say, maybe one, but it was like one of those shots that you have to make to win, if you miss,

you lose, type of situation. It wasn't tied, is what I mean. And he hit a buzzer-beater from like half-court at Pitt. to stay undefeated, rank number one. And I did not care if it went in or not, and that was pretty awesome to see in person. Yeah. So that was a pretty cool moment where I was just like,

I have no rooting interest, just want to see a good game. Half court shot to stay undefeated. It was pretty sick. Yeah. But you, Connor. I mean, the obvious is LeBron coming back from 3-1, but that's still technically somebody out of...

LeBron's one of your teams. That's your number one. Yeah. Well, LeBron is one of my teams. You're right. Yeah. Yeah. I probably say in terms of...

I look at it in terms of just moments that I remember. exactly where I was at. The kick six, I vividly remember watching on television and being like, holy fucking shit. Do you guys actually all remember where you were after the kick six? I know exactly where I was. I was covering a junior college basketball

game sitting on the press row of Northwest Florida State College basketball game. And I had my laptop. It might have one of the first games I watched on a laptop. And I was watching it from there. I had everybody huddled around me as we watched it. It was half-time. I was just at home. It wasn't interesting. I was just at home.

But you remember you were. at home. Yeah. Oh. I was just at home. What was that? That being said, App State beating Michigan.

Also another prime example of one of those. I will never forget where I was watching. 2011. I was in Beaver Stadium. We had just gotten done with our game opening game of the year. And they had TVs in the concourse. That's a pretty good place to watch that. Where everybody was watching.

Like being with 100,000 Penn State fans watching Michigan to get beat by App State, that's got to be pretty sweet. It was awesome. That's cool. I just went ahead and I found this one for you guys. Andrew B. from Mechanicsburg. I believe that's in PA. Right by Hershey, right by Hersberg.

The question is mainly for Connor, but any of the single guys can answer, so that's three-fits of the room. Assuming you're one day hoping to get married and have a family, are you worried about your current job, and I guess he means at Barstool, hurting your chances of finding a regular wife? I'm thinking about Conner's bits with Bonnie Blue

and the other woman that does porn. How do you balance... Show Ryan. How do you balance the need to create good content, your professional goals, with your long-term personal goals, love to show, peace? Good question. Great question. You work at Barstool. You go out in those clubs in Chicago.

All the ladies know you're at Barstool. Do you worry about your job affecting your ability to find a normal gal? Yeah, 100%. Oh. Would you like to expound on that? Well, that, I mean, yeah. I mean, we could get back into it and the whole Vegas thing. That's why I didn't even think about like kissing Rochelle.

And it's nothing against Rochelle. Like it's, it's, she's very, very nice and everything. We just thought you were gay. No, it's not, it's not because I'm gay. It's not because I have any like, you know, oh, well, clearly I'm going to work somewhere after Barstool and I need to keep my options open when it comes to my professionalism and the stuff I put out there on the Internet.

It is exclusively because that's a very hard thing to explain to a future wife or girlfriend. And when it comes to, yeah, trying to attract. a normal girlfriend who's, you know, not necessarily, I don't know how to describe it. It's just, it is a very fine line that you have to. Yeah, but when you go out and you're at a bar and you're talking to a hot girl, yeah. How quickly do you drop where you work? Only if they ask.

I don't think. Okay. I'm just, I also don't think it's like a major. I've never worked here and been single. Yeah, it's true. Yeah, no, it's not something that I'd be like, oh, yeah, like, I work at bar stools. It's not really. I feel like.

Guys, like, if he smokes lead with it. Regardless of if it is dating or if you're meeting, like, friends of a friend, I don't, I try to tell anyone. And then, like, my buddies will be like, oh, you know, he works at Barstool, right? Because it's like, I don't know. Like, not that I'm not, like, proud to work here, but some people will just be like, oh, you're dushy because you're bringing it up. Or they're like, I hate Barstool. And you're just like, I'd rather just not have this conversation of, like, about it all, you know? I think that's part of the reason why, like, it's a very, a lot of the.

people in this office end up like going out with each other or eating each other because like we understand. You don't have to like break that barrier where it's like I work a bar still here's. Right. Which is again, it's not like a bad thing at all. It's an awesome thing. But it's just like a thing that you have to talk about and explain like if you're, you know, doing a bit on the show where you're talking about like fucking a porn star in Vegas all week

and then you have to go home to your girlfriend who works an office job and explain that. like it's a lot easier when they work, you know, yeah, in the same sort of universe. I have run into that problem, getting into serious relationships. Yeah. And then, like, what are you talking about you did, you know? Yeah, even something as simple as like,

hey, listen, like, I can't see you today because we have to do this, like, video game stream. Yeah. Like, it's, you know, it's a weirder thing to describe to somebody as... Connor, she's the one you don't have to explain. I understand. Yeah. What about that?

You know? You got to find it down, bitch. The town bitch But it does get a little bit dicey sometimes Because sometimes people just don't grasp it Or understand it I went to the doctor A couple weeks ago

To get a physical Just because I'm like getting to the You know I feel like it's I should probably stay on top of some stuff So I go to the doctor I don't know this guy I just found him Yeah

Availability whatever good reviews I go there And then he asked me what I do Like for I don't know how why it was relevant I don't know if it was part of the physical He's like what you're talking And I said well he's typing shit in That's why

Oh I see yeah So he's like He's filling out my info And I left it blank on the thing Because I was like How was this relevant? I just want you to like Squeeze my balls and make me cough

Or whatever we're here to do Yeah stick your finger up my butt Make me come Yeah It's exactly right Yeah Yeah you've been there Yeah

You've been to my doctor So He has me what I do And I was just like I work in media And that wasn't enough for him So he's like What do you mean

And I was like I just I work in Sports media mostly Wasn't enough for him Still motherfucker still starts prying So he's like like what do you what do you mean sports meet i was like i cover sports for a for a living i just cover sports for a living he's like oh like how and i was like god damn uh so he must have known though so i said

i'm on i i'm on i'm on i talk about sports it's whatever i was like can you type that in your your little fucking thing and he and then he just immediately turned he's he's type and he turns to me he goes should i know you and i was like well that's now now this is weird yeah no i was like no you should know and it brings me to the point let's take your finger on my butt before you ask me so I said, no, you shouldn't know me. I said, I'm basically just a jackass on the internet is what I do as a profession. And he goes, huh.

You think he wrote in jackass on the internet? And I don't know what he wrote in. And I also, I was hoping for more of like a laugh. I was hoping for more of like, ah, I don't know what I, but I, I was really frustrated that nothing was would satisfy until I said that. And then after I said that, I was like, well, I'm not really a jackass. Okay, all right, whatever, fuck it. You wrote it down.

I don't know. That was my, what I'm saying is that's the closest I've, come to like talking about what I do in public. Uber driver. And I fuck it up every time. Uber drivers love to ask you what you do for work and I always lie or like salmon. I'm a marketing agent. That's not a thing. Yeah.

Yeah. That's a good question. Shout on Mechanicsburg. Oh, let's see. Jane from Los Angeles. Yeah. This looks like a good one. Is Mark Titus down to eat my box?

Oh. Who asked that question? That's Jane from Los Angeles. All right. Okay. Mark, that's a question for you. Yeah. Now, there's a chance.

This is a joke question. But I do need you to come up with an answer. Okay. If Jane Lynch. We're just talking hypothetical. Hypothetical. Jane Lynch shows up at this office. She walks in the door, shuts it, looks at you, and says,

I remember you. I was getting... How could I forget? I was getting... Wavo Serencheros. I was in my cookie monster pajama pants. I was so embarrassed what I was wearing. But I saw you look at me and I felt it too.

Yeah. I'm gonna need... I'm gonna need you... I'm gonna need you to eat this box. What are you prepared to say? I... I think I have to eat her box. I have to...

So I think like going back to the question that was just asked of Connor, my wife gets it. And I think that's what makes her stand out. That's why I married her. She gets it. And she would understand that this is, this is just work. Right.

This is just me doing my job. Like if I, if we've gotten to this point in the show and the audience finds out that I had an opportunity to eat Jane Lynch's box. We might be done. And I turned it down. The show would be over. Yeah. So I have to do it. Credibility is out the window at that point.

Now, again, this might not be Jane Lynch. We don't know. I don't know. We don't know. Can I be honest? I don't think it is. There's no way of no. But it does say Jane from Los Angeles.

I would say it would be a respectful but relunk reluct it. Reluctant it. Reluct it. Yes. That would be my answer. What if this is just a normal woman named Jane in Los Angeles? I really want more tight to seat my pussy. What are you guys talking about?

I don't know anything about Jane Lynch. Who are they talking about? Here's when from Valdosta, Georgia? I'd like to answer this one. If y'all like to read, which I think both of us do. Yep. What are your top three sports book recommendations? Oh, okay.

I'm ready with mine. I'm ready with one, ball four. By Jim Bouton? Yeah, ball four. Probably the greatest sports book ever written by an athlete. That's my favorite one. I assume you had read that before you. I had not, no, but I read it because people would read my book.

And then say, you should read this? Yeah, they were like, you should read this if you, you know. That's why I read it. I have four that is a good starting point. Number one is the bad guys won by Jeff Perlman. It's about the 86 Mets. Any Jeff Perlman book, he's great. He's fantastic at this.

He wrote one about Barry Bonds and 90s Cowboys, the 2000s Lakers, the 1980s Lakers, Showtime. He wrote one about the USFL. He wrote books about Walter Payton, Brett Farr, Roger Clemens, any of his books. But I like the bad guys won about the 86 Mets. It's the first one I read from him. was great.

A book called Fantasyland by Sam Walker, 2004. I believe he was writing for the Wall Street Journal. I could have it right. He was writing for some big-time publication. And he decided to get into the world of fantasy baseball. And he joined one of the expert leagues with Matt Berry and like all these big time, big-time. He joined a rotissory league in 2004 and he documented his getting into it with the experts of the experts.

And it's just a fascinating book, Sam Walker, Fantasyland. Rammer Jammer by Warren St. John. He bought an RV and followed the 1999 Alabama football team across America. Incredible book. And a good walk spoiled by John Feinstein. Feinstein is the first book of his I read. It was about the 1993 PGA tour season. But he wrote a lot of great ones too.

He is now dead. It's good shit. Those are my four. Yeah, you read more sports books tonight. I don't read a ton of sports books. I will get, remember Ibo how you did the, you bought a bunch of jerseys on the low-priced jerseys. About once a month, I just did it this weekend.

I'll go on Amazon, click on a sports book, a like, go to the links under it, and just follow that rabbit trail. And I bought eight books the other day. I bought a book about Nolan Ryan autobiography. I bought a book about Macho Man Randy Savage. I do that about once a month where I was about eight or nine books in a row.

And I haven't read any of them. But you have. I'm way behind in reading. Yeah. Anyway, I love reading sports books. and don't put me in coach by Mark Tudon. Oh, Brandon. Don't put me in coach.

Don't put me in coach by Mark Titus. I've never read it, but I do have it. Brandon. I have never read it. It's not a very good thing. That's a dog shit book, actually. It's very dog shit. What else?

Do we want to do Christian from? Well, we can do all of them. I don't know. I'm all over the place. I don't know where we're at. Christian's probably been to Red's Ice House if he's some aisle of Poms. There's a lovely place. There's another. Logan's from Charleston, South Carolina.

Love it. Okay. Where's Christian? Go ahead. My 8-year-old son is already obsessed with sports commentary. We listen to all sorts of sports talk like mostly and others, and he laughs his head off every time Mike Breen gives a bang. What advice would you give to someone his age or older on being successful in the sports talk ecosystem should he decide to make that his dream?

Also, Brandon, unblock me, please. I won't be unblocking you because obviously you said something to get to earn it. But thank you for being a fan of the show. Shout out I'll be What, so what advice Would we give to some? A eight year old who wants to give us to sport? Or like a middle schooler

Someone that's like, I want to do what you do. I mean, the honest, the advice I give to anybody about any, literally anything is the most boring advice. But it's, it's the advice that I find to be true.

And for any, any, literally anything. It's just do it and, and be bad at it for a very, very long time. And then eventually, if you're lucky,

you'll stop being super bad at it. And you'll just be kind of, bad at it and then you just keep going and that's really all it is and it's very boring and people don't like to hear that but um that that's it so i would say if you're if you're eight years old and you want to grow up to be i mean that's what scoof did yeah that's why he's here i suck he sucks he sucks he still does but he still better like as bad as he is now like go back oh my guy he really sucked yeah and like you give you give scoof 30 40 more years he might turn into something you just got to give him time but the point is you get the reps in and uh and i

I think that, I honestly do think that's it. Like, I, I don't know. I think about the things that I'm kind of good at and not good. It's just like, I just practice it. My advice is, do it. You just do it over and over and over. It's similar,

but you got to do the first thing first, and that is pick. You have to pick what you want to do? Yeah. And if you're eight years old and you came up with this idea that you want to be a sports commentator, it sounds like you've picked it. But I pick what you want to do and then go do it.

Don't get bog down and doing something else. Don't get to college, be like, I'll try over here. I'm going to sell cars for a few years, and then I'll sell insurance for you. No, no, no, pick what you're going to do, fucking do it. You're going to have to eat some shit for a while.

Yeah, what do they say? Overnight success? Yeah. Yeah. But the number one thing is pick what you want to do and go do it. Yeah. And that's, any good advice sounds too simple to be advice.

Yeah, but it is, it's the truth. Be willing to be really bad at it and be okay with that. Like watch your own shit back or whatever and be like, yeah, that was bad. But understand that it's a whole process. And number two, I think especially now, people that get into media want instant gratification and instant feedback that they're good and that this is awesome. And they'll put out something. And if it gets two likes, they just shut down and they say, I don't want to do this anymore.

And the only way you're ever going to get good is to just like keep doing it. So you have to do it because you love to do it or want to do it and not because you think this is going to make you rich and famous. And if the only reason you're doing it is because you think it's going to make you rich and famous, you know, there are a few cases where that has worked. Yeah. But for the most part, it's probably not going to work. and if you just do it because you're like this is what I want to do with my life you know you will as Brandon said

eat shit for a long time and then suddenly you'll look up and you'll be hosted mostly sports with Mark Titus. Bang. With Brandon Walker. I think Brandon's his story. I mean Brandon is that is what you did.

Yeah. No, I made... Everyone makes it seem like you just like suddenly would snap of a finger overnight success but you wouldn't have been there. No, I got my lucky break three days shy of my 40th birthday. We have like a ton of people that like apply for jobs or like say on Twitter, let's say like, oh, I would do better if I was, like, do it.

Like, Brandon was doing it for years and years and, like, waited for his opportunity and it came. But when you didn't. Yeah, you did it in that order. You didn't wait for like a goofy thing to happen with Barstool. And then once you get the job, decide, I got to figure out how to be good at this. No, he was doing it. He already were practicing. Yeah, yeah.

Read and write. I think. I think I agree with a soon. I agree. Because I did not read and write a lot as a kid. I was more of a math guy. but a quality I recognize and a lot of people I think that are very good at this

like I think the two of you are very good at this Big guys are very good at this Dave got very good at being on camera is like they have a long track record of writing and writing is a good way to get your thoughts organized in a concise manner and kind of learn your voice and how to how to think through

I don't know any sort of topic or whatever so write right right right and then get it in front of a microphone that's fantastic advice too that is really good advice Ebo did you write that down at home Connor, do you have advice? Watch back everything you do, which some people are like, oh, I feel uncomfortable watching.

Then, yeah, then you should not be doing the job, I don't think. Yeah, Adam Driver says that. He's in Star Wars movies, so you're telling the guy that's like the star of the Star Wars movies. No, I'm saying if you want to get better, you have to critique yourself and you have to watch stuff. But mainly, I talk to myself all the time, which I think is a little bit more psychotic. But you got to get used to talking. All right, here's a non. It's a serious question.

That's actually good advice. If you're in the car, if you're in the car by yourself or if you're in the mirror at home, get ready, talk to yourself. I don't care. Here's a question that's not as serious in tenor as the rest. Dylan and Cleveland, can you be a fan of multiple colleges for different sports? I have a friend that's an Ohio State grad. He roots for Ohio State football, but he roots for Kentucky and basketball.

He has no ties to Kentucky and grew up in Columbus his entire life. I think he's a stupid bitch for that. Family. He is a stupid bitch. I fucking hate this guy. Dylan. I hate this guy. Your friend is a stupid fucking.

He's an Ohio State grad that does not cheer for Ohio State basketball? No, fuck this guy. And he's not, listen, there are other people out there that will cheer for Alabama football and Duke basketball. And fuck you, dude. Fuck you. The one thing that's special about college fandom is that's your school. That's your, if you don't have that emotional tie to where even if they lose in softball or golf or tennis, it still hurts you a little bit. where you find out that Ohio State men's tennis is in the Sweet 16.

I care deeply. And then they lost. You're like, fuck. Yeah. I don't know why I cared about it. But, but like you've got to have that emotional.

That's what college is about. I agree. It's the community. It has emotional connection. Yeah. There are, you know, there are people have like weird things.

Like I have like a soft spot for Indiana because I grew up in Indiana and my father, my brother. And, you know, so like you kind of have different. But if you have no ties, that's crazy,

Brandon. Yeah. That's crazy. I do think that, yeah, people get a little sensitive because, like, Zupi is one that comes to mind. I don't know what he just came to mind, but he's an Ohio state guy, but he went to Kent State, but he's like, listen, man, I grew up in Ohio. Like, Ohio State's everything.

You grow up in Ohio. And he still cares about Kent State. But if you ask him, like, who his favorite football team is, he might say Ohio State. He's got family that went to Ohio State. And I'm like, I'm not going to tell Zupi. Like, you can't share for Ohio State. Like, at that point, it's cultural. It's in your blood.

It's, like, part of you. So those sorts of things I kind of get. but like if you're a guy that's just like, I don't know, man. Bama had cool uniforms I thought when I was a kid. So I like them. And then I also like Duke basketball because, like, come on. Bottom line. Ties either school.

Dylan and Cleveland, if you're hanging out on November 24th and at 11 a.m., Ohio State beats Michigan in football, and you want to go rip up the town to go party. And then your friend, let's say his name is, I don't know, give me a male name, Austin. Austin, yeah. Your friend Austin says, yeah, man, it's great that we've been. Kentucky plays Louisville at 7 o'clock. I got to go watch that. That's my basketball team.

Fuck you, dude. Fuck that fucking guy. That's crazy. You went to Ohio State, dude. It's not like you went to a tiny school. Now, if you're like a Villanova basketball fan, you have to have a, and you want to be a Penn State football fan,

that's a little different because they don't have. But Ohio State? 2011, Ohio State was ranked number one in the country basketball. We got upset by Kentucky in the Sweet 16. I don't know if you remember, Ohio State went to the final four in fucking 2007. I do remember that, yeah. I do.

But we're playing Kentucky in 2011, ring number one in the country. Kentucky pulls off the upset. You're telling me this guy in Ohio State grad. Was celebrating? No. I don't want to overreact, but I won't that guy, Dad.

Yeah. I won't. I want his blood on this desk. Disgusting. Ebo, find one. Brevin and Austin wants to know, what is the best way to find my best gal? Be a volume shooter.

Take the defense, what the defense gives me. The lights are getting brighter. Wow, this is a great question. Oh, great question. It was the best way to find my best gal. You have a long shooter and take what the defense gives me. Look around your office.

Teach. Yeah, lose a bunch of weight. Uh, uh, I, I, I kind of like. You like volume shooting or take what the defense gives? I think, I think also like. I've been in the situation before where I've taken what the defense gives me, and that's never a, that's never a road to happen. You're not going to be happy. No, no, that's never a road.

I remember I was looking across the table and be like, well, all right. I guess that's what we're doing. Is there like... And I'm sure she was doing the same thing. Like load management situation? Like maybe you tank for a little bit to set up... I bet if you tank, though, you're not managing that load at all. Challenge yourself in the non-conference.

Oh, okay. All right. Okay. Play some tough team. Yeah, like go challenge yourself in the non-conference. Get outside your comfort zone a little bit. And then when it comes to, like, you don't need to be the husband you need to be when you're playing the non-conference. or like the person that needs to be proposed in non-conference. Yeah, when you get in conference, you tighten it up.

Yeah, non-conference, you're going out, you're feeling yourself out. What is, let's find out what other people are like and get feedback on what other people I like. See where you're lacking in your roster. Yeah. How can I get better for them? What do I like from them? And then when it's conference season and then you find, all right, this is what I'm looking for. This is the game I want to play.

Yeah. Commit to that style of play and let that take you as far as you can. That was good. Really good sports analogy. That was really good. Pretty good. Yeah. I was thinking, like, at a certain point, all it takes is one, right?

Yeah. Like, all you need is one. So maybe you figure out a way to just beat that one good team, which is to say, like, you figure out a way to spend your whole offseason looking at how, at weaknesses in the Alabama defense? Yes. Okay. You're like, yeah, yeah, just study Bama tape.

That's all you're doing. You're studying Bama tape. And you say to yourself, if we win four games this year, but one of them is an upset of Bama, that's all I know. need. That's all you got to beat Bama once. I'm not getting fired. You've got to be Bama once. And if you're at Mississippi State, you beat Alabama, you got a job for life. Yeah. So I think find a woman that you're interested in and then like just become obsessed with her. Yes. Right. To an unhealthy degree. Yeah. You know, and make it weird.

And Conner said don't take no for an answer. I did not say that. Stalk her. Learn her ways. Find manipulation tactics you can use. And then yeah. You think that was Brevin Knight? I think of Brevin Knight every time I see Brevin as well. It's the only Brevin. That's the only Brevin I know. The only famous Brevin, yeah. If I see Brevin, I think of Brevin Knight.

If I think of Brevin Knight, I think of... Wait, no, he wasn't... Who DeAndreventreiberi-Jordan Dund, D.O. Brandon Knight, okay, yeah, yeah. Prevent. Brevin Knight was Stanford. Was Brevin Knight a prolific... Was Brevin Knight a prolific...

A prolific... A prolific long shortswear. He could have been. he was on this good Stanford teams Let me see Brevin Knight's Stanford T.J. I'm going to say he wore number four, by the way. He was on the Josh Childress Stanford?

Yeah, they had the line through the numbers, I thought. Yeah, there's the, he's 22. I was very wrong about the number. Right. And I can't tell about the shorts. Yeah. That was the uniform I remember wearing. Yeah.

All right. Oh, you don't have that, that wavy line through shorts anymore, do you? They don't do that. that I'll make that. Oh, I like this one. Matt S from Buffalo. Have you ever had a guest on the couch you didn't think would be a good interview?

Didn't really know anything about, but turned out to be a great guest family. I think my gold standard for that, you weren't here, was Doug Flutie. Yeah. Doug Flutty was good. Yeah, I watched that. Josh the Booker said, do you want Doug Flutty? And I was like, a quarterback who won the Heisman, 84, a quarterback who had been in NFL in 25 years, like, I guess I'll do it. because I don't want,

anytime Josh ask about a guest, we tend to say yes because we won't be able to get the next one too. Right. I was like, I'd be grudently say, yeah, let's just do Doug Flutie. He'll be okay.

We'll get 20 minutes out of him and it'll be fine. He was great. He was phenomenal. That's probably the answer. Yeah, incredibly interesting. Do you have one? I don't know who comes to mind. I don't.

Or maybe just in general, maybe not even this couch, like someone you met in your time of media where you're like, oh, I didn't think this would be. How good was, because I wasn't here. I think Connor,

got him, but how good was Roussillo on the show? He was decent. He looked cool as fuck. One guy we had when you guys were here, Robbie Gold. Robbie Gold is rocked. And I'll say, we knew that ref Rob was a cool dude. Oh, yeah, that went better. And I thought.

But the fact that we had him in here for, what, 45 minutes? We could have him every day. Yeah, absolutely. We got to get him back. I mean, my answer, which is boring to you, Brandon, and shouldn't have been a, by the time he came on, it wasn't a surprise. but I lived my entire life without realizing Fred Smoot was as awesome as he is. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So that would be my answer.

Was that if you would have told me that, like, when I signed on to work here, that I'm going to have Fred Smoot on one of my shows, I'll go. All right, cool, whatever. That's fine. And then now, if you told me Fred Smoot's outside that door, I'd sprint out there to make sure he comes on. He's incredible. Austin P. from Columbus, Ohio.

Hello, family. I'm wondering if Mark remembers playing Open Gym a bunch of times at Upper Arlington after responding to my email slash book review of Put Me in Coach. A slightly out of shape Mark gave everyone straight buckets, and it was so awesome as we were all huge fans. Some people are saying it helped pull Mark out of a little slump. That's not what I'm saying. Just what people are saying. Love the show and the whole crew.

Hashtag family. I remember it well. I remember it well. You remember playing Austin P. I do. I don't remember Austin P. I don't think. I remember going to Upper Arlington.

The governor is what they call. Yeah. Yeah. I remember going to Upper Arlington and play. and open gyms. And I was out of college about three or four years, thought I was in shape. I was very much not in shape.

And these high school kids humbled me in a conditioning way. I could keep up with the skills, obviously. Right. Boy, I was sucking air. It was tough. When you were at Ohio State, you know, walking on, like, after a season or something, did you go to like an immoral gym just to just to... Sometimes, yeah.

Just to get the feeling? Yeah, it was a lot of fun. Yeah. But yeah, when I got done playing basketball, I realized way too late. And this is what he's talking about. He did kind of wake me up. I needed structure with working out and stuff where I got done with college. And I realized like if a coach isn't telling me we're working out at this time,

then I just wasn't working out. And I got to a point where I was like, oh, I have the day off because coach didn't say we're lifting on at this time. We're doing this at this time. and then I was like, oh, I have the day off again. How about that? Oh, my God. Yeah. I got the day off again.

And I just kept a long series of that. Yeah. And then I woke up one day where Austin P reached out to me and was like, hey, man, you want to come to open gym? And I was like, yeah, why not? And I went there and it was not good. But I appreciate him saying I played well in this, in this open gym scenario. I used to substitute teaching up Arlington, by the way.

Did you? Uprolyton is where Jack Nethethyst was going to high school. Nice little high school. You didn't teach him, though, because he would have been way older. A little older. What was your vibe? You subbed in for like a history teacher, gin teacher?

I would take whatever. So Upper Orleans is rich kids, so they would pay well. So I love taking the Upper Arlington assignments. I would take any assignment, really. It didn't matter just whatever the money was. And Upper Linton had good money. But my vibe was,

I was the guy who, I was like the cool uncle, the fun uncle. I hit him with a lot of like, listen, guys, I don't want to do this. You don't want to do this. But Mrs. B is going to be mad. at all of us if I you guys don't get this homework done so I just how about this how about you

guys do the homework real quick and then I'll let you do whatever you want you know I do shit like that and it worked and they all like me but I would I would just throw the real teacher under the bus like I don't if it was up to me yeah we'd be fucking doing god knows what but unfortunately you know your teacher's a bitch oh I say stuff like that this one is from KB so I just don't know if it's from KB and he is uh checking in from his own personal hell. This is for Titus. Titus are your old blogs

anywhere in the universe to reread? Or have you deleted them faster than Brandon it deletes a chick-fil-a sandwich? Respectfully. I think they are gone. I think my account lapsed. I paid for like a domain. But those don't hang out

on some corner of the internet somewhere. I think that's what happened. I think just something like yeah. You think if you paid like a lock spot some of them? money you get it back or whatever you were on maybe maybe there's a way i could reactivate it i could dig up is blog spot still around or any of those blog hosting blog spot google blog spot real quick is blog spot

what'd you use i use blog spot okay that was the first i think google owned blog spot yeah blogger dot com because when i when i googled how to start a blog that was that was the first thing that came up yeah just clicked on that one oh they used to run things yeah right 2005 to 2010 blog spot was was had it going on Yeah. So it might be, as far as I know, they're lost to time, which is probably for the better, right, Brandon? I mean, I'm sure there's some good stuff in there, but there's probably some stuff that just make you cringe right now. Yeah. I'm not even worried about being canceled. I'm worried about like something I thought was very funny. Yeah. Which is like, basically what my book is. It's just like, yeah. I thought that was the funniest.

You still think diarrhea is funny, though. Dyer is pretty funny. But you're never going to not think diarrhea is funny. All the way to think diarrhea. What else? What else? Oh, I have a whole sheet. I haven't got to. There's, if Barstle didn't exist, if you didn't have a job in media. This Patrick Mitchell?

Patrick, yeah. What would your dream job be? Patrick Mitchell from Indiana, if none of you could work in media or sports media or sports media, what would your dream job be? I believe I've answered this one before. But this is, shit, it's media. But weatherman. Just weatherman? Weatherman.

Is that too much in media or is that enough of the difference? I always want to be a weatherman. and then I you know what my dream to be was when I was 12 15 13 14 15 I wanted to be a radio which is media it's all media so you just keep going back to I guess I do but it's still totally different from what we do now I wanted to be I would did you ever do job shadowing yeah I would job shadow DJs in a little shit market that I was in and they were always rude because there were just people trying to get to the end of their day and they're all right here's eighth grade kid that I'll never see it but but I wanted to be

a radio DJ at Sunday 93 and Tupperlo. Do you still feel like that is your answer? Or do you, when you get asked about your dream job because the way you answered both or the way you provided both of those answers was, I always wanted to. But as you sit here now, if this job went away and you weren't allowed to do anything in this space.

Are those still your answers? You still, you would turn to weatherman? I would really want to try to be a weatherman. Okay. But I don't think, I think my dream back when I was 10 years old and I want to be a weatherman was the weatherman is somebody who stands in front of a camera and points in a map and says this is where it's going to rain tomorrow.

Yeah. He's not the guy that looks at the barometric pressure and he looks at the atmosphere and says, hmm, actually I think this is, this has a chance, storm has a 30% chance of developing. I'm not, I was never into the science of it. I was just into the, uh, TVness of it. I found growing up of my, my father loved watching the news.

He loved watching the weather. Yeah. But what was interesting is I don't think he would have liked a guy like you doing the weather. He always had like a, it was, it was, interesting because he would be he would watch the news the weather would come on and he'd always flip to the other different channel from what he was watching now and what what was standing in front of the weather mat when he liked it was it so yeah so yeah so we'd be watching like say like channel 13

yeah you know and then a guy there was that looks not too dissimilar to you would come on there was there was gus brownie doing the weather yeah and he's like I'm gonna tell you folks about the weather and i thought like oh dad loves the weather yeah he's gonna be and gus looks like he knows what he's talking about and he would always change the channel right as the weather came on I was like, oh, dad must hate the weather. Yeah. But he would always change it to a different chance. Oh, and there's Heather Sidney doing the weather.

How did you know? Heather Sidney's doing the weather. Heather Sidney had the biggest tits, Brydon. That's what stood out to me. She had huge tits. And you think that gave her... And I always wondered, huh.

Is she... Is there something about her that was different than the other guy? I don't know. I mean, it could have been the way her... Mannerisms. Maybe she broke down the weather a little bit differently. She talked to my dad next time you see him about weather. Because he's really has...

a thing for weather. I don't know. I assume it's the weather. Every time you predict what your dad's going to say, he always says it, when we went down last time or down around Easter, and you were like, and I complained to you about the two-lane highway down there, and I said, it should have been three. He said, and you said, ask my dad about that. Yeah, right. And we showed up at your dad's house. I'm like, yeah, I drove down yesterday. It was two lanes. He said, should be three, right? And then we just talked about it. Yeah. Yeah. My dad, uh, my dad has thoughts on everything, on the weather. Really everything. Yeah,

really everything. My answer, my answer used to be, I wanted to be an orthopedic surgeon for most of my life. That's what I thought I was going to do. You knew what that was for most of your life? Yeah, because one of my friends' dads did it. And I was like, that's pretty sick. And he was doing it. Was he doing well?

He was doing really well. He was doing really well. And a small town Indiana, he had some toys, we'll say. And I was like, that's pretty sick. I want to do that. And then I got older. I went to school. I started to go down that path.

And then basket. I got put on the basketball team and I was like, you know, I can't do. I'm not going to do both. I'll just be basketball player or whatever. So as I sit here now, honestly, I just want to be an eighth grade math teacher, I think. That would be my dream job. I would just, I would just teach math, the eighth graders. Connor, do you have a dream job?

Yeah, probably be a teacher, college professor. That doesn't seem like a dream the way you said it. No, because I'm just, I've literally, since I was 10. Wanted to do this. Wanted to do this. So I don't know. I mean, like. Mostly sports.

Yeah, exactly. This is still technically. media actor? That's not media. B, B, yeah. You were born to be on air as well. Movies, TV shows. Look at you two.

You just sluts for the camera. I just tell, you know. What about you? Acting's fun. What nerd asses that you want to do? Well, like, eighth grade, I did like the shadow thing where I followed the local news reporter. He went and covered a high school soccer game.

And the shadow wasn't as big as the real guy. Yeah. And I went in, I was like, that's not funny. I went to it. I was like, I got de-influenced from wanting to do this very quick. where I was like I saw the actual job was going to girls soccer games and doing the beat like that. And I was like, damn, this kind of sucks. So then I focused really hard of math and science.

And then I was like, oh, I'm going to be a computer scientist. This is a dream job. You make a fuck ton of money. And then I was like, actually, no, this kind of sucks. I kind of want to go back to doing this and work my way here. So this is kind of the dream job. But if not, I would disappear and go be the starter at a golf course. Starter at the golf course is a good one.

I think my goal is to make enough money doing all this. at the end of the day and then just live off 20 grand a year being a golf course starter working part-time. By the way, you guys brought up job shadowing.

Have I ever told you that I job shadowed Brad Stevens when I was in eighth grade? No. I haven't told you this story? No, you need to tell it immediately. I haven't told the story?

No. We did one job shadow. You could shadow Brad Stevens? We did one job shadow. I did one job shadow in my life. Yeah. It was an eighth grade we had to do a job shadow thing

and I pick college basketball coach just because I was like, I don't fucking know. and I like basketball, so I would love to be a basketball coach. Who's a coach we could shadow? Todd Licklider was the head coach at Butler at the time. And Todd Licklider and my dad used to coach high school basketball together. My dad was a head coach in high school.

Todd Licklider was one of his top assistants. And then my dad kind of got out of coaching where he's like, I don't know. Not for me. Like he just kind of fizzled out. And Todd Licklider was like, I'm very into coaching, progresses in his career, gets the head coaching job at Butler. So my dad calls up. up Todd and he's like, hey, my son wants to job shadow you.

Can I can we send him to you to, but just let him fuck around to practice for a day or two or whatever and sat as time to form and send him on his way. So I show up and I, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like the cock of the walk of the walk. Yeah. I'm like, I'm going to. This was eighth grade, right? And you were like, my friends are like, I'm going to shadow an accountant. Like, I'm going to do like a fucking like, I'm going to go to a spa and watch someone paint nails.

Sure. You know, like you guys are doing all that. You know what I'm doing? I'm going to Hinkle Fieldhouse. I'm going to watch a Butler Bulldogs practice. I get to follow Todd Licklider around. So I go to practice and I go up to Todd and I'm like, hey, it's me. I'm the eighth grade dipshit that's going to follow you around.

He's like, he didn't want to deal with me. Who would want to do with an eighth grader? He's like, hey, man, I'm busy. I got a lot of responsibilities. You know who's going to show you around is we got this guy who works out of his broom closet. Brad fucking Stevens. He'll show you around.

And this baby face guy comes up and is like, he actually remember me because I was, He had coached me in A, you a few years earlier, but he's like, yeah, come with me. We go to a room, and basically all I remember about the experience was Brad Stevens was splicing up a video of Darnell Archie was one of the greatest shooters in the history of basketball. Look him up if you don't know him. It's an unbelievable shooter from Newcastle, Indiana. Darnell Archie was in a little bit of a slump. Brad Stevens was putting together a video of all the times Darnell Archie got hot in a game,

and he was going to give it to Darnell and be like, watch this, remember who you are. And then go be great. So me and him were sitting there with a notepad, and we were right. down like we were watching all these games and we're just writing down when darnel archie would make threes that's amazing it was incredible and brad stevens was probably like 23 years old 24 years old or something we're gonna bother wow and i job shouted him and if you see brad stevens today you don't know i think you would remember that um i job shab i don't know whatever happened to him no i i do have my question about that is lick lighter was the head coach of butler right yeah

and i'm not saying you were you you were a recruit a recruit by them but at eighth grade you were already 6-4, right? It was pretty good, yeah. And you were on the AAU circuit. Yeah. I would have expected him to treat you a little better than that. Yeah, same. Yeah, okay. Yeah, okay. Same, Brandon, yeah. All right. What was that question? We were on the dream job? Yeah, everybody got a whack at that one? Did T.J? I think, like, I aspire to one day go back to, like, my old high school or middle school and teach the next generation, kind of the roast, but that is in media because Mr. Lepore, my eighth made TV production teacher is like kind of the reason why I pursued this as a career.

So I would love to give the next generation a little bit. Shout out, Mr. Lepoor. I'm going to take this next question. Go ahead. And I'm going to kind of massage it a little bit. This is from Troy and Kansas City. What is a team, college, or pro, that you wish you were a fan of, not because of success on the field, but because of vibes, players, Jersey's traditions.

No, Brandon, you can't say the broos, you're already a fan. So I'm going to take this question and says, what's the team you wish you were a fan of. I'm not going to ask it like that. I'm going to say, what is a team in history that you've been a fan of because of their vibes, because of the stuff that they did? And I got a couple. The early 90s Golden State Warriors, they had run TMC.

It was Tim Hardaway, it was Mitch Richmond, it was Chris Mullen. It was a running team that wore. I love the Golden State Warriors jerseys and all that back then. And then the 2004 Red Sox, when they were the idiots. Yeah, they were fun. They were fun because they were just, you had the, the very stoic, very corporate Yankees. And then you had the long-haired, oh, we're down 3-0,

we don't give a fuck Red Sox. And I know they ended up winning and then Boston won everything for two decades and that kind of suck. But I really loved those idiot teams, even though I wasn't a Red Sox fan. Based on vibes, based on their players. Yeah. Those are good answers. Yeah.

I'm trying to think of when I was, huh. I always thought North Carolina basketball was so cool. Yeah. It was like the basketball program that I thought was the coolest. It just looks good. And it's like kind of, I mean, I make that observation from time to time these days. Like it does sort of feel like it flip with Duke. Like Duke is always going to be Duke in a lot of our minds.

But like Duke started getting the cool guys that are going to go on to the NBA and everything. But when I was growing up, the baby blue and the Vince Carter and Antoine Jameson. I was like, that's so fucking cool. They were just so cool. Yeah. Everything about them was cool. They kind of had the Nike thing before everybody had the Nike thing. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. And at the time, and then in the 90s, Jordan's on, you know, doing his thing with the Bulls. So that guy went to North Carolina. He's wearing North Carolina's shorts on those. So that's kind of where my mind went. As it stands right now, who would be the most fun to, who would be the most fun to cheer for? I mean, best vibes. It's recency bias, and it's partially because we live here in the city. Last year's Chicago Bears team. Yeah, that was pretty, I watched from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from across the street. I was, I was pissed because. they beat my eagles, but I watched

maybe 80% winning every game with the fourth quarter. They were magical television. And then the playoffs, maybe it was ridiculous what they were doing. So yeah. My daughter got into them. She was really enjoying. And I remember we watched the Rams game and she just thought,

oh, they're going to come back at the end because they always come back at the end. And yeah, that was a cool team too. I'd say any I don't regret my choice of college because J.M.U. has been awesome. I have lifelong friends. You still get a big-time college experience, and the football is great, but every time I step on campus, like visiting a friend going to a college football game,

whether it be like Madison or LSU, or even like sometimes Virginia Tech, it's like, this is awesome. Yeah. Like getting to support your friend, like even if you didn't go to the school or like, you put on the school college, you're like, this is the coolest. I get it. Like I get why it's a cult in the South. Like everyone rallies around the football team.

This is awesome. I felt a similar thing living in Southern California, like every time I go to a campus out there. I was just like, why the fuck did I not go to San Diego State? Yeah. Why don't I not? San Diego State might be my answer for college. Yeah.

Like any of those Southern California teams are. Yeah. Because they, San Diego State had the right mix of like the Southern California vibes, but also. Little fuck you. People are like really into the team. Yeah. You know?

Whereas like UCLA and USC it kind of. Too cool for school. Sometimes. Yeah. San Diego State is like, you're chilling, but you're also very passionate. So that may, I don't know. You have like the basketball program.

Yeah, the basketball, like, it's a great atmosphere for a basketball game. But then you step outside and you're in fucking San Diego, chilling. Yeah. Cool. Get the best of both of the world. Mason from Strawberry Plains, Tennessee. How much longer are you going to go? About 10, 15 minutes, does it matter?

Are we just rolling? We're rolling for a little bit. Mason and Strawberry Plains Tennessee is creators in the sports podcast space. What are your favorite non-sports genres of podcasts to listen to in your own time? Do you have any? you can recommend. And then he has a two-part question, because I actually think both parts are good.

What was your favorite summer evening outdoors game to play in the neighborhood or at your friend's house? Flashlight tag, ding-dong ditch, pool basketball. Does it bring back any stories? That might be a, that's probably a better question. I'm going to go take a Waz and think about it. I'm about to explode over here. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. Before you go, before you go. What did you just say? What are you going to take? It's the Wazler. It's because he chucked. that whole bottle of water at the beginning of the show.

Why did he say... Why is he going to take a waz? He always says that. He says waz? All the time. Connor says Waz. If we pulled the transcripts of this show, he would...

Hunter said Waz before on the show? At least double digit times, he said, I'm... Mark, I've never heard him say Waz one time. I've never heard him say Waz. He would never get Waz past me. He does it all the time. He says Waz, yeah.

Usually, like, when we're wrapped up to the Grizzly, let's wrap this up, I gotta take a Waz. I'll say it at DeBarr or something, too. Do I just think he's saying whiz? I'm with you. Why is?

I'm with you. I just, maybe it's Connor's talking and I don't listen. Especially by the end of the grid. I'm just, I'm just not listening at all. You're taking a while. Favorite summer evening outdoors game to play in the neighborhood or at your friend's house? Dude, we used to get. Just something about playing with your friends in the summer right, right as it gets dark.

Yeah. And it doesn't matter what you're, if you're playing baseball, you're playing wiffleball, and you're eight years old and you've been playing all afternoon the sun's going down and you just keep on to play all of a sudden you can't really see your friend but you still want to play

the first lightning bug then you start chasing that motherfucker god damn it like I think if I could bottle childhood right I would take one one perfect day one perfect like 830 at night as the sun's going down and you're fucking playing that's what fucking

we play capture the flag like crazy yeah and it got so intense It was awesome. It was so fun. I miss that a lot. I miss playing Capture the Flag. We played. Like, you have to guard your flag, but also you need to send some people to go get it.

And then you're, yeah. Oh, my God. We called it. We called it pop up. Where one person would be it, have a ball, tennis ball. Throw it way up in the air and there's a group of nine or ten boys and, you know, trying to catch a ball. You catch it, and now you're it.

Yeah. Do you call it pop up? You know what I'm talking about? You just, all you do is throwing a-500. 500. Five-fod. Jackpot. Yeah.

Okay. You call it jackpot? What did you play the game where one one football player has a football and everybody can tackle him? Yeah. Yeah. Is that, wait on. Is that? Wads on the Connor.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That was your Waz, bro. Did you say, Wazz? I did say Waz. Yeah. Do you always say Waz? A lot. I don't say it a lot.

It's, I think it's from either I Carly or victorious when I would watch that as a kid. And I just like that word. I forgot. You know what's a core memory that I have? that's just like getting me going a little bit. Yeah. Stalches a little bit is driving over your boy's house. And there are just like five bikes that are flung over in the front yard.

You're like riding your bike up. Yeah. They're already. And once you get there, you don't use the kickstand. No. Oh, and you just let it fucking let it roll. Just let it roll and it just kind of like spills into the front yard. They're already like four or five dudes that are there already.

Yeah. You're about to get a great game of capture the flag in. Yeah. Some wiffle ball in the back. Put a. Oh. Put a Pokemon card in the spokes of the wheel as you're riding. Mark, when I was 10 to 11 years old, we had seven or eight boys in the class that would all go over to my friend Bo's house.

And Bo had a two-story house, really nice house, right on Broad Street, two-story house, and he had a deck on the back, a tree by the deck, but then in between the deck and the tree was a basketball court. He had a little basketball goal, and it was low enough. He had one of those you could lower it to dunk. Yeah. It would lower it to like five and a half feet. Right, right. And we would play basketball. We would get to Bose on a Friday, 3.30 after school.

His dad had affects lights to it. We would play into 2 a.m. Best. We'd play into 2 a.m. And looking back now, 4 on 4, 12-year-olds. And we were playing on a court half the size of this room. Yeah. Not even, not even the size of this room.

Half the size of this room. And it was the best fucking time you'll ever have. And then in summer, we go the same house. He had a fence over here, a fence over here, a fence over. He had a long fence and a short fence. We'd play baseball. Hitting over the long fence. Oh, my God.

Just, you know, you had to have that one boy with the house, the centralized location house where everybody went to play. God damn it. We had a, we had a, in the house. You guys saw the house. I don't know why. My dad did you. Oh, I didn't see that house.

Before we lived. in that house, we had a house that was just you had your standard hoop in the driveway situation. Yeah. But dad, being an athletic director, got his hands on, the school he was working at was throwing out some scoreboards and he was like, I'll just take those home. Yeah. Are you throwing those away

and they're like, yeah, we're going to throw them away. He's like, my boys would like those. So he brings them home and we set them up in the garage and we would play games in the driveway. That's incredible. You pull the garage door up. And if you drove by, you just have this massive fucking scoreboard that we would go over and every time someone would score, you'd like, flick

twice you know that's two points i would just say home and guest and it was like yeah the whole score would look like it was the size of the garage door it took up like the entire garage you couldn't park in there but it was unbelievable it was awesome man i want to be young and we didn't answer the uh i'll give one answer and mark's not going to like my answer well i'm not going to say my answer what's your favorite non-sports genre podcast let's do i know i know what your answer is i i love it dude i saw you had a big episode you guys you can talk i love the rewatch you don't have to what you don't have to like i love the rewatch i like some i like some i like some I think the rewatchables is so good.

It's my favorite podcast out there that's not on the Barstall Network. And they just had an episode with Steven Spielberg. That's what I said. I was to do it twice. It was fucking amazing. I love Van.

I love, I love, you know, I want to meet CR one day. CR's the best. I want to meet Sean. Yeah. Yeah. That's why I listen to.

You don't have to hide your ringer love in front of me. I fucking love the rest. He loves you regardless. Live your truth, Brandon. I love you just the same. Ringer's amazing. my answer is I don't I actually maybe it's surprising maybe it's not I actually don't listen to podcast

I let's do a lot of wrestling podcast and when I get out of here I just like turn it off and I want to like find a different yeah I watch so much sports I don't know I think before I started here I had listened basically every PMT since 2016 now that like we work here yeah I don't I know we joke about like jacking their shit not like that but no you know I'm saying something we joke about yeah we joke about jacking their shit But it's like I don't want to be, like, I don't like, I don't like listening to a lot of other sports podcasts because sometimes it feels like you get Jackson buddies. Yeah. I, um, I don't know, like your life becomes like everything around here feels like you're listening to a podcast sometimes.

It all feels like a podcast. So it's like I kind of want to disassociate from podcasts at times. That's right. So I get away from. With this long drive I have, I've learned that I, in the morning, you know, four or five a.m. driving in, I can't listen. I don't like listen to music. I like listen to people talk.

I like, I like listening to podcasts on the way in, on the way out. I got to listen to music. I got to decompress. I got to rap music on Monday, country music on Friday. I have theme days that I do. Mark, can I pump your boys' tires? I think Son of a Boy Dad is the most listenable podcast. Yeah, Son of a Boy Dad is awesome, yeah.

And I tell those guys every time, I think that's my favorite podcast product, where it's like, The Yak is a podcast. It's not a podcast. It's not a podcast. It's very unlistenable, and you have to watch it. This isn't a podcast. Son of a Boy Dad is a podcast. like perfect podcast.

Yeah. It's great. Yeah. And I, and I, I, I, I, I, I, I,

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, , I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, like a lot of guys. I, I, like a lot of shows.

I just kind of, pop in and out. Yeah, I'm not, um, I don't, it is hard, but, yeah, it is hard, but yeah,

great, yeah, great. Yeah, right. That, the yak, the show is not a podcast, you know, it's impossible to, yeah, I know,

I do feel bad because we have podcast listeners. You're like, as a podcast listener, this, I think, yeah. It's like, unfortunately, I don't really know if we're going to really change how we, how we approach the show. But we appreciate you listening nonetheless. Let's do one more to finish it off here. Do you want a serious question or a non-serious question? Do one of each.

I don't think I have a non-serious question. I got a non-serious question. All right, ask it. This is from Queef in Virginia, and this is for Brandon. Does pussy taste like pumpkin pie? Sorry, that was a serious question Yeah Ebo

Don't ask me no damn question like that I never had no pumpkin pie Kick it You lost it man I didn't want to do the whole thing I ain't scared to you motherfuckers We used to All jokes aside

I started doing that on the show On the yak I started doing that pussy bit because me and Mark would come in here to get ready for mostly. I would just take my phone and play the Bernie Mac. I ain't scared of you, motherfuckers, the entire five-minute stand-up. And we would just sit there and listen to it and then do the show.

Yeah. And finally one day I just said it on the yak. Yeah. But we were just like an inside joke that's like not an inside joke because it's a very famous stand-up. Right. But you were doing it just for me. Right.

We were just every morning I'd sit right here. I'd play it. I'd press play and then 10 minutes we'd do a show. let's see and what's the serious one you want to finish with i was going to do it's uh will from north carolina currently living in a home post grad and seeking to move away from my hometown to a larger city but i've had trouble in the job market thinking about saying fuck it and moving somewhere and then figuring things out from there any advice on how to take the leap of faith thanks boys love the show all right so any advice on how to take that leave i mean

i got a little bit of advice so it says currently living at home post grad seeking to move away from hometown to a larger city. I have had trouble in the job market. Think about saying fuck it and moving somewhere. I did this. If you're scared, not scared, scared's not the, if you're worried about moving from, just know home is always home.

That's something I'm, yeah, home will always be there. Home will always be there. At some point, you do have to put yourself on the floor and bet on yourself and it might be in a big town elsewhere. It might be in a small town elsewhere. It might be, and you might have to take a risk. You might have to take a half a year or a year to figure out exactly who the fuck you want to be and where the fuck you want to do it.

But if you go out and fail, home will always be there. Don't be afraid to go out and fail. You're not going to fail. You're going to be fine. But that's what I would say. I'm a huge proponent for using your 20s to go take the chance, go move to the city. It's something that I regret immensely. Like I was very scared to leave Ohio after I graduated.

Same sort of thing. And then I finally moved to Los Angeles on just kind of like I felt like my life was plateauing. I felt like my career was plateauing. I was like, I don't, everyone I know and love lives in either Indianapolis or Columbus. I live in Columbus. I don't really want to do this. Greg Oden was actually the one that looked me in the eye and was like, Mark, you should not be here. Why are you still here?

Were you sitting when he let you in the eye? He was sitting. You were standing. I was standing. Okay. All right. He was sitting. I was standing.

And yeah. And so I was like, yeah, I'm going to make the move. I moved to L.A. And the second, almost the second I got out there, I was like, why don't I do that? this sooner. I was like, I think that I should have done this like right after college. I, you know, you don't have to move to L.A. or New York or, you know, some of these cities are very fucking expensive. And I understand that like not everybody wants to take that big of a risk. But kind of what you said, Brandon, you just have to, I think you have to do it. And I also think,

and this sucks because when you're, I feel like the two of us have made it to some degree, Brandon. Is that fair to say? Does that make us, does that make me an asshole? To a degree. Yeah, yeah. You made it. Like, I feel like you and I are both like, we can make it more. We could make it more. There's no question about that. But I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm not, I don't feel like the, I don't feel hunger in my belly, like how am I going to feed my family, all this sort of thing. And when you're, when you're someone who's kind of on the other side, you're always, you always sound like an asshole when you give advice. And it's always like, well, it's easy for you to say because you don't have to deal with the struggle or whatever. And you can disagree with me, Brandon.

But when I look back on like, when I got to Los Angeles and I was like, I have no idea what I'm doing. I don't know where I'm going to live. I don't know anybody out here. I do sort of romanticize that, that period of my life. There's like something about it that like was very. cool that I figured that out. There's something about like piecing together what my friend group will be, what I'll do with my time.

What am I trying to accomplish out here? How long will I be here? What is it that I'm and, uh, yeah, and it, and it, it sucks at times because everything's so, like, how you're charging me how much for a cup of coffee? Yeah. I'm sorry. What? Yeah.

How much is a banana? What the fuck? Yeah. Um, but then now I look back on it. I'm like, I don't know, dude. That was, that was pretty cool that like you kind of find yourself in that, in that era. But then people that are going through it don't like to hear that. I'll just say this.

Because, you know, it's easy for you to say. In 2007, 2006, I got married. I was the sports writer at my hometown newspaper making $8 an hour. And I realized I couldn't be the sports writer of my hometown newspaper for the rest of my life. I would go crazy. I needed to go out and see. So 2007, we moved to Louisiana, which led to a move back to Meridian, Mississippi, which led to a move to Tupelo, Mississippi, which led to a move to Fort Walton Beach, Florida,

which led to a move back to Mississippi, which led to a move to Virginia, which led to a move to Carter'sville, Georgia, which led to a move back to Mississippi, which led to Dave Portnoy, seeing me on this video, which led to the next seven years. And none of that would have happened

if I didn't take the initial, I need to get out of here and find it. Yeah. And that sounds like a lot, but every single place was kind of fucking awesome. And it's what you had to do with that time. That's what I had to fucking do. You do look back on that and like it sucked and you talk often about it.

It sucked during it, yeah. Yeah, how much it sucked during it. But is there a party that looks back and it's like that was. I kind of love it, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Right, isn't that crazy how that works? Yeah, yeah. I don't want to go back there, but like it was something about.

I spent three years in Fort Walton Beach, Florida. I had no reason spent three years in Fort Walton Beach, Florida. I spent a year in Martinsville, Virginia. Martinsville, Virginia, not a great place. I loved the year I was there. Carterville, Georgia was amazing. Like, it was just a bunch of stuff you never were to think about, but you got to get in it. And then when you get on the other side,

like I was lucky to. Anyway, that's... I lived in a garage in L.A. for three months. Did you really? I didn't have... I didn't have the money for an apartment yet. How much rent were you paying? Were you just living in a friend's garage?

Like a thousand. No, it was like a thousand something a month. Oh, Jesus Christ. The guy was charging me. And I didn't know. It was like a shitty area, too. It was like really shitty. I think it was like I decided I wanted to move and I didn't have much time to find a place.

I lived there for three months trying to figure out what apartment I was going to live. But didn't you? And I don't, of course, no part of me wants to go back there. But then, you know, you come, you get through the other side and you look back and you're like, thank God I did that. Yeah. But at the same time, if I, like, look at like a guy like Connor is younger in the eye and I'm like, you know what you need to do. You need to move to L.A. and live in a garage. That would be insane advice.

Yeah, go be insane advice. But, you know, I do think it worked for me. So during. Didn't you meet the love of your life in L.A.? I did, yeah. And then you met your wife. Yeah, that's right. Met the love of my life.

She said no. Yep. She said, I'm going home to eat my Waveos-Ran-Charles. She said, not interested. All right. Show, boys. Good wrapping point right there? Yeah, I thought that was...

Do you want to do an 8-2-0? Yeah. Is that our new thing? I think so. Because we've been doing it for what, a week and a half now? I think at this point, we've been doing it for three weeks, right? I'm going on a limb and say we quit this. You think we already quit it?

I think we already quit this. I have a different one. What if we already got 100%? Blutman sent us a month ago that we should try to go, 0 and 82. I knew somebody would immediately start trying to go ahead. That seems a lot easier. He just picked the worst player.

Well, he sent that he had a bunch of guys averaging under five points a game. They went 10 and... Let's do 82 and oh and just... That'd be full disclosure. We're recording this June... June 3rd when we debuted 82 and 0 for the first time. Six hours ago. So we're going to go ahead and guess that we're still...

That's a month. Yeah. We're still doing it. We're still doing it. Yeah. All right. Do 80. Excuse me, I got the hiccups now.

82 and 0. What did you say you have another one? Somebody DM me a game that they made that they wanted us to try. All right. We'll try that on the... Yeah. We'll try that on the real show and forth. Yeah.

All right. All right, spin it. Okay. Why is it always Golden State? But this is good. This is good. This is Steph. Wait, wait, wait.

Or KD. You get two years of Katie. Who was better? You got it. I mean, if you get 15, 60. Yeah, I guess. What are we putting in a minute? Shooting Guard or point guard.

I think you go. You probably get more positional versatility if you take Durant. But Durant. I want to be like Dara. Durant, those, how long was Duran on the team? Two years. 18, 19. Oh, no, no, no.

He was on three years. 13, 18, 19. Three years. The three years, Durant was, was on the Warriors. Was he better than Steph the entire decade? They went back to Dave. Steph want two MVPs. He won a unanimous MVP.

It's Steph, right? It's got to be Steph then. It's got to be Steph. It's got to be Steph. Are we putting them at the point or shoot a guard? Both. But the step. It's got to be step.

It's got to be. Point guard. We got to go. Yeah. What's the, what do the analytics say, Ebo? We can't have our two guard be undersized.

Well, also, I don't know how. I think you go point guard because then there's more variability. Yeah, if you get like a small forward, you might be able to put them in. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Point guard. Yeah.

Staff at the point. Okay. We'll support you later, man. We're supporting you by just doing this. Do we want to? Okay, never mind. Yeah. What?

Nothing. Okay. All right. Nothing. Okay. Not terrible. Bronson at the shooting guard? Brunson could be a shooting guard, I think.

Now. Towns? The problem is there's so many good centers in here that if we put towns at the center, we're losing 20 games. Can we put towns at the four? God. I think we have to put. Or Brunson at the two?

I think we have to go Brunson, right? I think we put him there, though? Yeah, we can put them there. Yeah, I'm fine. If I got Steph with the one and Brunson of the two, either one can bring the ball up. Yeah. This is fuck,

because we're recording this before the final. I don't know how good defensively we are, by the way. What if Jalen Brunson won finals MVP? Bigger, bigger guards are going to tear us up. That would have done better. That would have done better for when, you know. I think Brunson is shooting guards fine.

Brunson's shooting. I think we just have to do the best player. Yeah. The best player available and then figure out how to. Now, I was sure we didn't want to do Hartenstein and Center. All right. here we go. Oh,

do we go morning, morning, we go, we go Glenn Rice and go Larry Johnson. Do we want to, okay, we could, yeah,

we could go morning. We could go morning. This is, now 90s for sure. 90s is so strong. We could reshuffle the team in the 90s? Shuffle the team in the 90s. Is MJ small forward?

I don't hate that. Could MJ work at small forward or no? There's a lot of size in the 90s too. Like, what if we end up with like, uh, should be able to. I like,

shuffling and getting another 90s team. Oh, boy. You want to use our team shuffle? Let's use our team shuffle here. That's smart. That's smart. Go. That,

that, we don't have anywhere to put him. Damn it. We don't know how to fucking put him. I, Charles Barkley. Does Barclay get in there? Barkley.

Is he? Barkley. Yeah, yeah, Barkley. He wanted, Yeah. I can remember if he left in the 80s or 90s. No, he left in,

he played to 92. Okay, perfect. Oh, so we got, Put him in. We got Peak. We got Peak. Three years of Barkley. Yeah, yeah.

Take Berkeley. 89. 99. We're going to. Barkley Power forward, right? Barkley Power forward, yeah. Barkley Power forward. That's good.

Okay. Okay. And we still got our decade reshuffle. Okay. Whoa. Well, now, wait a minute. We just gave away a spot. We gave away Carl Malone's spot.

Maybe we not put them at center? There are only two guys that are worth a damn. We don't have a spot. We don't have a spot for one of them. We don't have a spot for Stockton or Malone. We got to shuffle era. If we shuffle the air. Where are we going to fight?

Mark, you know who we're going to. You know who we're going to end up with that dumb bitch. What dumb bitch are we going to end up with? Rudy Gobert. We're going to have to play Rudy Gobert. It's our center. But that would work in this game, no? I know.

Rudy Gobert might work in the game. Motherfucker. Hold on. I don't know what else to do. I don't know. Brian, oh, God, there's nobody else. Hornichick? There's no, no, there's nobody else.

There's a real high chance we end up with Joe Engels. We have to do our, we have to do our error switch here. We have to do Stockton or Malone. There's only two guys that can. But you don't have to do. You literally know where to put them. You don't have nowhere to put them. Yeah.

Nowhere to put either one of them. We have to do error shuffle and hope for, what are we even hoping for, though? Like. If we can get Carolinco. Carolenko. We can get Carolinco. Pete Marevich. Yes, dude.

If we can get 70s. Marevich be a small Ford? Yes. Yeah. He should work. All right. So let's do era shuffle. Yeah.

It's our only hope. Okay. It's Carolico. It's a small forward. Yeah. We'll take that. Yeah. We'll take that.

I think I was damn good with the metrics, too. So Carolinko, the small forward. All right. We're about it big. This got to be 60s. We need 60s. All right, here we go. We want Will.

We want Will or Shaq. Oh, Whimpy. Oh, dude, that's going to be money. All right. What is your conviction for this team's record? Yeah. Okay.

That's a good record. We got Steph. We got. Oh, fuck. Hey, no way. 15 games. No way. 15 games.

We've beaten this team 50 times. Carol lingo and Wemby are both defensive monsters. There's no way. There's no way. Defensively. Brunson. Who cares? We have, we have.

And the best rebounder in basketball. I think we're better than 67 and 50. We have the best shooter of all time. We have the best maybe player slash defender of all time. We have. This game fucking Rock. Carl Farley. We have fucking Jalen Brunster.

There's Jailen. Mark. Mark. This game fucking rocks. Mark. Fuck, that's fun. All right, that's the show. Ebo, ain't no way we quit doing that three weeks.

Yeah, I like this game a lot. Frank the tank just tweeted this out, by the way, in real time. I just went 7 and 75. David Stern style. What is David Stern style? What does that mean? Impossible. Did he suspend like Boris D.O.?

All right. Block and trade. Mario Party tomorrow? Yeah, go ahead and say what you say. Say what we think. At this moment, what you think the schedule was and will be. Today's Wednesday. You want me to say it?

So obviously Monday was mostly ladies. Tuesday was Christmas in July? Was July 1st? Yeah. This is Wednesday. This is Wednesday. But today's July 1st. We can't do Christmas in July and June.

Wait. Hold on. You scheduled this whole day to do Christmas in July and June? Yeah. That's funny. That is kind of fun. Yesterday was Christmas in July. Today, of course, is our mailbag.

Tomorrow is Mario Party? Yeah. The biggest Mario party ever. Yeah, we haven't recorded it yet. I'm going to go ahead and assume that this one got crazy. And then Friday, we're doing a surprise. Okay. We're keeping that one to ourselves.

That one's a surprise. To everybody. All right. We'll see you guys tomorrow. That's all I was done. That was fun.
