Welcome to part of my take presented by Cash app.

Go download it right now. We're in our new Cash app studio right now. Today is Friday, July 19th. I don't know where we want to start. Get excited. I just want to say right off the bat, I noticed something when I sat down here to record the show. We just had Chris Broussard in the studio.

Who you'll hear in a second. Just realized that we left this little sign on the table right in front of Chris. By accident it says PMT now three years without eating each other's asses. And you'll find out why that might be. Chris was probably pretty happy to see that at least in the last three years. My lips have steered clear of Big Cat's rectum. I do know where to start actually. On the air.

On the air. I want to start with a little warm up for the show with some Dabo Sweeney quotes. Okay. I don't know if you saw these. I'll tell you what, it is football guys season because the media days for college football, they give us some of the best wheat nectar like the pure uncut shit. Yes. Directly from the mouths of football guys.

And then we'll get to Brooks and the other stuff that's going on. But Dabo Sweeney said, here are the quotes. In 43 seconds, these are all the quotes he used. We live modern, but we train old. Yeah. I like that. Fall in love with the grind. They don't put championship rings on smooth hands.

You have to put the work in. I like that too. That's not true. Except the kicker. Well, no. If you're Alabama's kicker, you've got some dirty hands because they just have you run the ball up the middle. Yeah.

And ill timed sneaks. The quality of the construction is based on the commitment of the crew. Yeah. I'd also say the mix of the concrete. Like you don't want it to watery, but yeah. For the most part. Yeah. The concrete is true, but I mean, just look around this room, the construction of this

room, commitment from all business. Pete hasn't really come together that well. Yeah. Maybe Pete could go spend a couple of weeks down in Clemson with Dabbo. That'd be nice. So we have Chris Russard, Mount Rushmore, licensed to Jill. Before we do all that though, Brooks Kepka is back and he's going to win the British Open.

He's killing it. He's three under. He's not in the lead. Two strokes back. But his caddy is like basically cheating because he's from Port Rush, which is apparently in Northern Ireland. I learned all of this this morning. Yeah.

Also Game of Thrones, one of the castles is there and they had your boy Stannis doing some voiceover work. So Game of Thrones still finding its way into meetings. I just think it's interesting. You've got a bunch of guys parading around Northern Ireland, just lurking around there, going for long walks with big metal sticks. Seems a little too early after the whole Liam Neeson thing. Might want to give that a couple years to simmer down, but I'm looking at the leader

boy in front of him. Who's the head of Brooks Kepka? I'm glad that you asked. Who's the head of Brooks Kepka? S. Lowry. Oh. A. Noren from Sweden. Sweden.

I did know that. Webb Simpson. Give me a break. Webb? Webb? Sergio García from Spain. Sergio is not there. And he's never going to put it together in major championships.

So it looks like Brett, as we say, is in the Catbird seat. Yeah. You just called him Brett? Brett Kepka. Blake Kepka. Brett Kepka. Do you know, can I tell you guys something that's crazy that I learned yesterday? Bradley Chamby, he doesn't have an accent.

I thought he was English. You see, that name to me just screams Georgia. Dude, I was like, who is this guy? I don't know the country or the state, but yeah. For some reason I thought he was English or Scottish the whole time. No. He's just a dude with the, like, he's got nothing. He's just a dude with bad opinions.

Well, because if you're talking about golf or like soccer and you have an English accent, I always just assume you know more than me. Yeah, Tommy Smith. Right. And you're like, I'm gonna put this onion back. Right, exactly. So then I see Brandy Chamby just talking like a regular old Joe. This guy sucks.

I can't believe you don't mute it when he comes on TV. Well, I was trying to find a clip where he might have accused Brooks of doing steroids, but I couldn't really nail him that. No, so he's come back around and he is, he's trying to get on the, on the Blake train a little bit too late. Yeah. Sorry, buddy. That's left the station a long time ago and you're in the dust.

We had some all time meltdowns at the British, or excuse me, at the open today. Tiger. Tiger melted down. The course is dominating out there. It's David Duvall. I think shot what, like a 13 on the first, was that the first hole? The Rory had a quad on the first hole. Yeah.

The best was, I think it was the official open, maybe account said David Duvall shot a 13 reply here. If you've ever done that, it's like, dude, do you know that like everyone sucks at golf? Yeah. Everyone has shot a 13. Also, I, And if you shoot a 13, you're never going to write that. Yeah.

It's an eight. Yeah. It's an eight. You can't get higher than an eight. I've never shot a 13 before. Right. That's true. Because you just pick it up after a while.

That's a good point. Yeah. Someone fell in the bunker. Oh. We got breaking moves. I want to get back to the guy falling in the bunker. Yeah. That sounds incredible.

Put a pin in it. Okay. We'll circle back. We'll circle back. Breaking moves. Hank, what do you got? Breaking moves. My Twitter desktop just updated and it's, I'm shook.

I feel like, I feel like people say this every time there's an update, but this is. It's horrendous. I've not tweeted from desktop since because I'm too scared. I don't know everything moves too fast. I even tried to do dark mode, which I don't do that usually. And then boom, it just sucks. It sucks. Is this a boycott?

Has you had it happen? No. I'm holding out. Wait till you see it. It is so, but they made everything white. So it's like, it's all the same color. It's hard to. It's problematic.

It's hard to read anything. Yeah. It's too white. It's way too white. It reminds me of, it's so bad. It reminds me of time I was, I was working out. I was dehydrated. I felt like I was in the desert.

And then someone gave me a nice cold chocolate milk. It was delicious. And it was a delicious dessert. Are you describing the feeling? In the desert? No, I felt like I was in the desert because I was so dehydrated. Oh, I thought you were telling me I liked the montage scene from the new Rocky movie. Got it.

The Apollo Creed one. That's a good one. We're just working out and like a jungle gym in the desert. But yeah, when a natural break comes to a rapid story and it was saying learn more at BuiltWithChocolateMilk.com. That was your great natural break that you just found. What do you think the words were? I think the words were...

Dessert and desert. I think it was dessert. How many S's were in that word, Hank? Two. Yeah, dessert. So it wasn't desert. It was both. They tried to give you the Hezee Hey.

Okay, Hezee Hey. Whoa. Okay. Good job. Here's a quote from you. I always, you guys learned the trick. It has two S's because you want more of it. Uh-huh.

And then I was like, well, I guess I will. Yeah. What about content and content? Same word. Same spelling. It's just, it's a, choose your own adventure. It's confusing. So when you're writing it, you have to know that some of your readers will just say content.

I'm a content creator. Yes. I'm happy. You're both. I'm happy as a creator. I'm content. You're a content content creator and a content content creator. Nice.

That's awesome. Here's a quote from David Duvall, by the way, back to the open. You have an obligation as a professional athlete. If you play, you post your score. Am I happy about that? Is there some embarrassment to it? I don't know. You, uh, don't play golf in the open and a shot 90 today.

So put it on the board and that's from Doug Ferguson. And he says, this is solid from Duvall. So like shout out to David Duvall for not cheating today. Yeah. For just saying, yeah, I suck, but at least I got out there and at least I signed my scorecard at the end and didn't say I shot an 89. Correct. Correct.

Um, okay. So yeah, we had the guy fall. I didn't see that. Oh, it was awesome. He just, he hit the ball. I don't even know who it was because everyone's it's one of those golf tournaments. where everyone has to wear a ton of layers. So at first I thought it was Jordan Spieth

and I didn't even realize who it was, so I was like, I'm not even gonna clip this, but he tried to hit a bunker shot and just fell down and look, it was one of those situations when your dog falls off the bed and you know it's embarrassed. He was very embarrassed, but he had to sit there and had to take it again because he didn't hit it out. Is that a violation?

He grounded the club. No, no, I don't think so. He grounded his ass in a bunker. His swing just put him out of his own shoes. Wow. Willie Mays at the end of his period. World star. Yeah, that's tough.

That's also really bad for him because he's not gonna be able to clean up that sand for like the next three days. Correct. So he's just gonna play three more sandy, sandy rounds of golf. The other thing we had was I got out of Jerry Duty. It was the best day of my life,

getting out worst day of my life. Have you had it yet? I've been asked to go. I just figured it was one of those situations where if you don't respond to the postcard, they just let it, they forget about it after a while. Shout out this show because that's how I ended up getting out of it,

not because anyone knew who I was, but I was at the end where it was, I was a juror. I was gonna be a juror. I was in one of the numbered seats and there was like the backup jurors behind us and I asked to see them outside and I just told them straight up.

I have to offer grace tomorrow. If you pick me, I'm just gonna try to decide as quickly as possible and get out of here. And they're like, so you just are gonna make up your mind right away. I was like, right away. Yeah. I mean, at least in your place,

you had air conditioning. True. You were getting paid. Having your lunch is paid for. No, that's a lie. Really? Yeah. It's because you weren't on the jury yet.

No, no, no. I don't think they ever give you lunch. I saw the OJ thing on that. Yeah, that's different though, I think. Where they sequestered them in a hotel. Yeah, I think that's the talk. It goes really long, yeah. Yeah, either way, jury duty sucks.

I got yelled at for dipping. I got yelled at for being on my phone, putting my feet up. It's jail. Yeah, so you acted like this was gonna be a big inconvenience from your normal day. You actually tweeted more. Yeah, well, I was doing nothing, yeah.

And I did the classic thing where I got there at 8.30 in the morning and I was like, well, I have 100% battery. I'm good. And by like 9.15 I was down to like 28% battery and had to do the game for the rest of the day where I was just trying to conserve battery. Jury duty is a great excuse though

if you wanna get out of something. Yeah, it's true because you're doing your civic duty. You're civic duty, you can't be mad at somebody for that. Yes, yes. All right, so let's do. 12 Angry Men would be a great name of a podcast though. We should do that. There's a bunch of dudes in a room yelling about it.

By the way, if you wanna watch, we have our new studio, we alluded to it at the beginning. So if you wanna watch our shows, we have Chris Brassard and he came into the studio, barstoolgold.com slash PMT. And then on top of all that, rough and rowdy, Friday night, Fort Bragg. Tonight.

Tonight, I'm gonna be on the call, I'm gonna do the National Anthem. If you get Barstool Gold, you also get that for free. So you can get all of our, you can get our interview with the Cudbiller. Yeah. You can get our interview with the Game of Thrones language guy.

Dungeons and Dragons. Dungeons and Dragons. All sorts of stuff. All kinds of stuff. And then rough and rowdy also is in there. So go buy Barstool Gold right now, barstoolgold.com slash PMT and watch this whole episode. First time running the show too. Yeah, that's true.

Yes. Well, Dave was sick last time. So I kind of did too. Should we do Firefest or should we do Mount Rushmore? Let's go Firefest. Okay, let's do Firefest. Hank, you start. My Firefest of the week,

I got, it was like a bajillion degrees in New York this week. It was absolutely miserable. And I left the studio here. Like nine o'clock on Tuesday. And I got stuck in the subway for an hour and a half. And it was like no air conditioning, it was hot as fuck. I was on the train at like 6th Ave.

Waited 20 minutes for it to show up. Got on the train, we went one stop. And then we sat at the next stop for 25 minutes. You were on a hot train. That's just the worst is getting on a hot train in general. Now at some point, after 20 minutes, did you look around and was there one person who would like deputize themselves as train captain?

Who started trying to open the windows, all that stuff? There's usually one person that stands up and like takes charge way too early. No, the doors were open. So it was like we were waiting in the station for a long time. It showed up, it went one stop and then the doors open and just stayed there for like 25 more minutes.

And then on the way, once I got back into Brooklyn, a girl like passed out, it was fucked. Oh, I definitely would have pretended to pass out. You can make some money. Would you have, were you asked to help her? I was like chest to chest with her basically. Thankfully she was with her. Wait, she passed out because of your breath?

No, I mean she passed out because she was hot. But you were chest to chest with her and then she passed out. Let's not judge her by her looks. She was overheated. Okay. You were chest to chest with her and then boom, next thing you know, she's on the ground. No, I wasn't chest to chest with her,

but she was like two people away from me. But she was, I was like looking at her and she all of a sudden just got dehydrated and like passed out. I was like, oh my God, I just girl like, what the fuck just happened? Living in the city, baby. Love this place in the summer. Now, did you do anything to help?

Yeah, she like fell on me. I lifted her up and like a guy got up, we put her, sat her down. She was with her boyfriend or boyfriend and she was like splashing water in her face. Oh, hell yeah. Thankfully like came back because it was getting to that point where I was like,

if she's still like unconscious by the time I get to my stop, I probably have to stay and like help her. Oh, Hank. I don't want to be like the good Samaritan. I've been conned. But thankfully, thankfully by the time we got to my stop, she was awake and like back, back to normal. Hank, you saved her life.

You pulled it, if you were Tim Tebow and this happened on a train with him, the headlines next would be Tim Tebow saves woman's life on train. Yes. So Hank, thank you for saving a life that's very big of you. During my firefest in the last.

You are a hero. Good job. It is thrilling to be in that situation. I had one similar to that where I was like the fifth guy though who showed up. I just handed the person my Gatorade and left. That's pretty nice. Yeah.

I had one in college in my human sexuality class. The lady behind me had a seizure in the middle of the class. Grab her tongue and rip it out as hard as you could. She started to pass out. What are you supposed to do? I went behind her and I was like, let me get that tongue. Yeah, let me hold that tongue real quick. And then fortunately it was a special.

We were doing like a class that day on French kissing. Wait, hold on. Back up in college? You took a sexuality class in college? Human sexuality class in college, yeah. It was basically like it goes here. This is where he put it. Why in college?

Because I buried the lead here with the seizure girl. You took a sexuality class in college? It was great. We watched porn. Okay, that's weird. I took the class in college because I had a lot of questions about the human body. So did you save the woman's life or is she dead?

No, I saved your life. Oh, okay, good. Well, I don't know if she might be dead now. Right, because you just haven't kept up with it. But retroactive, I saved her life that day. She was alive for at least 24 hours after that. The campus was talking about me that day. They're like, hey, did you hear about this kid

that had a girl that had a seizure behind him? He grabbed her tongue. And then walked around the classroom. He dog walked her with her tongue. Yeah, I thought the worst part was when you're in a situation like that, especially if you've never been around that before and you hear somebody like gargling behind you,

you don't know how to react. Well, you were in a sexuality class. I was in a sexual, yeah. You never know what somebody's choking on in that class. Could be something else. So she was like gargling. And then I turned around and she fell out of her chair a little bit and I grabbed her and then she was like,

oh, I'm fine, this happens all the time. And then she just went back to her seat and then we resumed class like everything was fine. Oh, man. Are you going to your firefest? Yeah, my firefest of the week is I kept myself up two nights ago because I was watching Seinfeld as I was trying to fall asleep.

And the thought entered my brain how old are the characters on Seinfeld? How old are they supposed to be on the show? And it blew my mind trying to figure out how old they're supposed to be. Because growing up, I just thought they were adults, right? And then I started thinking Jason Alexander and Jerry Seinfeld were probably my age.

Yeah, they're in their mid-30s. They're all in their mid-30s? Yeah. Are some people younger? No, I think they're in their mid-30s. Kramer does not look like he's in his mid-30s. I think they're all in their early to mid-30s. Just because Michael Richards grew up in the Jim Crow South

does not mean that he's in his mid-30s in that show. But what part of this would blow your mind? Like, what was the part? Because if you told me 28 to 40, I'd be like, yeah, sure. I would say, yeah, I would say like 40s, early 40s, because I don't want to imagine myself as being the same age as a Seinfeld character. And it freaked me out.

Not the part of not knowing their age, because I feel like their age is very agreed upon. No, it's not. I don't think that it is agreed upon. I think it definitely is. No, how old are they? They're in their mid-30s. Just mid-30s, just somewhere in their mid-30s.

Yeah, somewhere in this, yeah, exactly. They're anywhere, when you hit your 30s, you could just be anywhere. I don't know about that. What do you think, Hank? How old do you think they are? Low to mid-30s, probably younger than you now. Yeah, and then that's the part that fucks you up.

Kramer's probably like five or six years older. Yeah, that's the part that fucks you up. Not what age they are, because I feel like that's pretty standard. Kramer's in their 30s. Yeah, they're in their 30s. I think Kramer's in their 40s. Kramer's in his 40s.

I thought for a second, George might be in his late 20s, he just looks old because of the baldness. No, I think they're just all in their 30s. It blew my mind. I don't know. And then I tried to look it up online. And what they say.

Then nobody knows. Nobody knows the real answer to it. The only thing I know for sure is, I will always think that they're older than me. I will never reach a point in my life where I think Seinfeld is older than me. I will always, like I could be 50 years old, I'll be like, oh, Jerry was in his 60s.

Yeah. So your firefest is getting old. Your firefest is getting old. Yeah, so don't blame it on Seinfeld. No, I'm blaming it a little bit on Seinfeld. They never had a birthday party. And they tried to do a Simpson's thing where the characters didn't age at all.

I don't recall a single birthday party in that show for one of the main characters. I don't know. They had Christmases occasionally, but I don't know. Nobody ever turned a different age. They never said it. It really, it kept me up for about an hour, hour and a half.

I was doing some pretty free research. I think you were just getting old. I think you're just coming to grips with the fact that you're getting old. I don't like it, whatever it is. Yeah, you are. It sucks, but you're there. You've always been about a day behind me in maturity.

I know. So thank you for this. So you experienced this today and yesterday. Yeah, I was good. I've been good since Monday. Okay, I fuck with all this shit. I'm a late bloomer, I guess. All right, my firefest, I have to just preface this

to my dad who's probably listening and also to Mike Florio who might be listening. Do not fucking text me after I say what I'm about to say because I think both of them will. I have been peeing a little bit of blood. Okay. So it sucks. I don't know what to do about it.

I mean, it happened. I've been blooded before today. All right, cool. So I'm good? Yeah. What are you looking at me like that, Hank? Should I go to the doctor? No.

Both of them are gonna text me and be like, go to the doctor, it's not a joke. You probably should. But it starts in the morning and then it's gone by the time the morning's over. Once I get a little liquid in my system, no more blood. Are you in catharsis? Does it feel like regular pee?

Yeah, it's just like, well, it scared the shit out of me the other day on Wednesday morning because it looked like the shit that comes out of the strawberry lemonade. Strawberry lemonade in Ghostbusters. Oh, okay. Yeah. And I've been watching Stranger Things,

so maybe that's what it is. I wouldn't worry too much about it. I've peed blood a few times. Yeah. I ate a couple olives on Tuesday. I think that might have something to do with it. That might be it. You eat a couple olives.

You don't know what's gonna happen to your body. It's just too hot out, I think. That too. I think maybe it's too hot. Why are you looking at me like that, Hank? I said, don't shame me. There's no football. Your body is very confused right now.

I looked up the best as I looked it up and there's like a bunch of different things. The first one is the Rhabdo when you work out so hard your muscles. Yeah. I'm like, that's probably not me. Then it turns brown. Yeah.

It's like a dark, that's a different thing. Like I'm probably okay. Maybe it's like that horror movie where the walls start bleeding blood as an indication to like get out of the house. Maybe your dick is just saying like quit having babies. Yeah. Quit shooting sperm out of me

because I'm gonna trickle blood into everything. It's just, it's one of those minor inconveniences that we're gonna monitor. You're on your period. Yeah, that's exactly right. All right, maybe I'll sync up tomorrow because I'm a day younger than you. If you start peeing blood, Hank is judging me still.

Yeah, Hank. You've never peed blood in your life. I'm sorry about you. Thank you. So in all seriousness, the times that it's happened to me it stopped within about a day or two. Yeah, then I looked it up because if we're being in the trustry here

this might have happened like a couple months ago too but it said if it happens you should see a doctor right away even if it goes away. No. I don't buy that. If that happened to me in my mid and late 20s. I'm gonna try to get a doctor though. That's one thing I'm gonna try.

Yeah, now you are very much old. Yeah, maybe you got kidney stones. That'll be great content if you passed a kidney stone. I also had diarrhea right before so I figured it's just like transferred. Yeah, just it took a left when it should have taken a right. You see what I'm saying, Hank? If we were to power rank the holes

that you don't want blood to come out of I feel like Dick is number two. Like nose, everyone has a bloody nose from time to time. I've never had one. Especially if you're a drug guy like Hank. I've never had one. You've never had a bloody nose? Never in my life.

I've said this before. You've never broken your nose or been hitting your nose? I've gotten hit in my nose very, very hard and I literally just cannot bleed out of my nose. That's weird that you've never. It's crazy. Anyway, not a problem if you bleed out of your nose. If you bleed out of your dick, I don't think that's an issue.

If you bleed out of your mouth, usually not an issue. Eyes would be bad. When we start to get to eyes, ears, and... Well, I'm not gonna... Clay Thompson. There's been butt blood before too. Yeah, of course there has. All right, let's do Mount Rushmore.

Mount Rushmore of juniors. Who is starting? It's me, right? Hey! Okay, so Hank and me. Here we go, Hank. That was quick. Yeah, well, we had...

Well, it's the end of the week. We've done three, so it's kind of like... Wait. That just blew my mind. The fact that we are now in a rotation that like... Okay. Whew. What would you do, too?

Right, yeah. Ken Griffey Jr., number one. Okay. Good choice. Good pick, Hank. The basic choice. The bacon of juniors. I'll go with Junior Soprano, number two.

Fuck. But it's like, what are you about to say? Hank. What are you about to say? Don't get contentious anymore, but no PFT, let him go. What are you about to fucking say you piece of shit? But we don't get contentious. He didn't even eat pussy.

That's very true. That's true. And he shot Tony. No, he did eat pussy. Oh, true. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He was a pussy king. Yeah.

Yeah, and then he shot Tony, and then he died of dementia. All right. My first pick is going to be... That blue hanks mine, because he didn't get to that part. Martin Luther King Jr. Oh, wow.

Yeah. Panda much? No, I think that's just a solid, solid pick. Okay. It'd be a shame if racists didn't vote for my Mount Rushmore. What's your second pick? My second is going to be...

I'm gonna go with... This is a big one. I'm gonna go with... Mel Kuiper Jr. Okay. Okay. I'll go with my second pick. I'll go Dale Earnhardt Jr.

Jr's Jr. Okay. He feels like a junior. We should have that discussion after, too, because there's definitely people who are like, that's junior. Yep. Because I actually have some people who are juniors,

but we don't know that they're juniors, which I don't think counts as junior. Okay. I'm with you. Yeah, you got me. You feel in that vibe. I will go with Birdman Jr. Okay.

Okay, Lil Wayne. Yeah, I didn't know that. And Cal Ripken Jr. Good one, good one. Hank, good one. All right, I'll go with... Maybe a contentious one. You guys like Junior Mintz?

Yeah. I like Junior Mintz. I had that on my list, too. Yeah, I love Junior Mintz. Also, Junior Mintz feels like you can't... The one thing I like about Junior Mintz, I don't think you can get it everywhere. You know what I mean?

Yeah, it's mostly like a movie theater. Yeah. Or it's a vending machine snack. Right, exactly. It's not... I like that about it. I've never seen Junior Mintz stocked in a grocery store. Right, you go into like even a liquor store,

you can get a Snickers bar. You know what I mean? It's just too easy to get. I like the fact you gotta work a little for your Junior Mintz. And it's like eating your candy and brushing your teeth all at once. Exactly. You don't have to take care of those later.

The only problem is when they get clumped up, that sucks. That's fine, just bonus mint. Yeah, all right. Okay, my... Hank is looking at me. He's giving me eyes. He's staring daggers. You're giving me eyes.

You're giving me... You look like Junior Soprano and I'm a big pussy. He's giving me those eyes. Well, he ordered big pussy to be killed. No, that was Tony. But he had a say in it. He was acting boss. True.

All right. My next... He was a bad boss. What do you mean he was a bad boss? Well, he was boss and name only, really. He was old school, Hank. You wouldn't understand anything about that. My next Junior is going to...

I'm going to go with a value pick on this one. I'm going to go with George Foreman's Junior because there are like five of them. He's got five sons, all named George. But they can't all be Junior. I think they are. I don't think that's how it works. Like you only have one Junior.

They're all Junior. I don't think that's how it works. They have nicknames. Okay. But they're all George. But can you do multiple Juniors? George Foreman's Junior. Okay.

My next one, is that not accurate? No, I just don't know. If they're not all Juniors, I don't want all of them. But they're all named George. Yeah, they all are all named George. We'll have to go to the tape afterwards. But go ahead. Oh wait, no, some of them are three, four, five.

Okay. Strict that from the record. Wait, wait. Nope. Well, do we strike it from the record? Yeah, my hand's not off the piece yet. My hand's not off the piece yet. I don't know.

It's still my turn. It's still my turn. So instead, I'm going to sub that one out. I'm going to go with Junior the movie. Okay. The Arnold Schwarzenegger. Yup. Where he gets pregnant and has a kid.

I thought of that, but then I realized that we're fucking old. But I mean, it translates to anybody. It's Arnold Schwarzenegger and he's pregnant. I literally had Arnold Schwarzenegger. I haven't seen that many Arnold Schwarzenegger movies. I literally thought of it because I obviously remembered as a kid

and then I put my brain in Hank's head and I was like, he's going to be like, what? Wait, so you're pandering to the younger audience. No, no, no, no, no. Admitted pandering. Yes, yes. Half our audience doesn't have it. That's on tape.

Oh yeah, so you're pandering to the audience. No, I'm trying to be relatable to our audience. Oh, well, that's a big difference. Very pandering. The junior movie still stands. Schwarzenegger's pregnant. No, it stands. I like it as a pick.

I like it as a pick. And you should have put on your Mount Rushmore. A lot of people don't know. My next one is Coach Oh. Ed Ogeron, Petit-Be-Be, he is a junior. Are you sure he's officially a junior? Yes, he's a junior. Okay, did you check it?

Yes, Ed Ogeron, junior. Did you double check it? Yes. Okay. Did you triple check it? No. Okay, pandering. Because everyone said my Coach Oh pick last week

or on Wednesday was awesome. All right, my last one is, you want to think I'm pandering? I'm this is the anti-pander pick. Brownie James, junior. I'm going to squat on that one. I'm going to buy that stock. What do you think about that, Hank?

I think Mount Rushmore is a mountain that was built after great people. He is great too. Have you seen his highlight tape? Like 16 year old on a mountain that's about people that are accomplished. Have you seen his highlight tape? You are forgetting that this is all

about a mountain of greatness. Oh, I know this is an anti-Libron James podcast. Future greatness. I still went with Brownie James, junior. Plus he's going to be a bust. Oh, wow. Damn. Well, he's already alcoholic.

Yeah, it's a pandering pick. I will go with my last one. I'm torn. I'm very torn. But I'll go with junior say out. Okay. Ooh, that's a good one. Interesting choice.

I like that rest in peace. Rest in peace. Yes. He had some issues, but he was a great tackler. What do we got for things that got left off? Junior cheesecake. Junior cheesecake? I was going to just say a college junior.

Yeah, I had summer break after your junior year of college. That's a great break. That is a good break. What about Carl's Junior? You've just studied human sexuality. You're ready to show off your new moves. Do you guys have, do you guys like Carl's Junior? Carl's Junior's pretty good.

I'm more of a Hardee's guy. Good commercials. Okay, what about? Robert Downey Junior. That's a good pick. Iron man. Iron man. Haven't seen it, but I heard it's good.

What would you, what would you say if I said JR Smith? Because it's like junior. I would have allowed it. I would have allowed it. For creativity. What about Freddie Prince Junior? It's pretty good. He used to be a hit.

Cube of Gooding Junior. Here are some juniors that I got that you wouldn't know are juniors. Will Smith. He's a junior. Didn't know that. Snoop Dogg. He's a junior.

Perez Hilton. Junior. That's crazy. Yeah, that's huge. That's huge. So we're all the people who are, you know, in the celebrity gossip. That's a huge one.

What else? Any others? Oh, Vlad Junior. We should have. Vlad Junior, but. He's topical. Only has eight homeruns. Do we have any juniors that have been on this podcast?

Cal Ripken. Cal Ripken Junior. Dale Earnhardt Jr. Dale Earnhardt Jr. Anyone that we haven't named. I don't think so. I think that's it. Kareem.

Yeah, probably. Oh, Ice Cube. Yeah, he has a junior, right? I thought he was. I think he's, I think he has a junior. O'Shea Jackson Jr. Okay. Sammy Davis Jr.

Oh, that one's, that one's, that one's slaps. Yeah. Let's get to our interview with Chris Brassard Jr. Do you think he has a junior? No, he's not a junior. No, he's not. That would have been awesome. No, he wouldn't let himself be named after another man.

He is the co-host of the Odd Couple radio show with Rob Parker on Fox Sports Radio Monday through Friday, four to seven PM Pacific time.

He's on FS one. He's on First Things First. He's on the herd with Colin Coward. And also he is president and founder of the Brew Crew, my fan club that I made for you. It is Chris Brassard. Thank you for coming. It's great to be here, man.

Appreciate it, appreciate it. Well, I want to actually start there. Do you, are you aware of the Brew Crew, the fan club? I've heard, I've seen a reference to it online or something, but I don't really know. I don't know if he's trying to diss me. Well, it kind of, it's evolved.

It's one of these specs that we do. It's evolved, it's evolved. It's a litmus test. You can look at it whichever way you'd like to. I think that you are an underrated genius in the world of sports media. And sometimes you get things wrong, but I don't think that that's what matters.

I think entertaining people and being part of the story is more important. So yeah, sometimes you get things wrong. That doesn't matter. The Brew Crew still rides. I don't define myself as a news breaker. And I'm not even a news breaker anymore. There you go.

I mean, that's why one reason I left ESPN was because they wanted to keep me in a news breaking role. And I wanted opinion and analysis. I wanted that role. It's kind of like the difference if you remember newspapers. Being a beat writer and a columnist. But like a beat writer, you gotta report

and try to break stories. Whereas a columnist, you just write your opinion. And that's kind of the role I'm in now on TV and radio. So do you think that it's kind of unfair because you transition. Jaylen Rose, let's start with the Kauai stuff because everyone got that wrong. Jaylen Rose got it wrong.

He said, I got it wrong. He came out and said, I got it wrong. Do you think it's people treat you differently because you used to be a reporter and are now an opinionist and maybe they haven't, like maybe we need to make an official announcement right now. Christopher Sartre is not just a reporter anymore. I do think that some of it,

I do think people tend to think of it because look, I'm not saying I would have broken the Kauai story, but I wasn't trying. Right. You know, I mean, I had been on shows weeks leading up to the free agency. Like, man, I'm glad I don't have to chase the news. Like y'all, the reporters now,

I can just talk about it when it happens. But I was, you know, I still have connections within the league. I talked to people and so I was getting info. So I tweeted out little stuff I was getting. And yeah, and I think there's many reasons that people jump on me. I think some people don't agree with my social views

necessarily as a Christian. So I think that some people would want to ride me for that. And then I also think, like you said, some people still think of me as that strict reporter, not realizing that I moved into a different role. You think that you get more crap because you're a Christian, because of your beliefs? I think some of it.

You think that makes you a target? Yeah. Yeah. Well, you don't believe in gay marriage. That's part of it, right? Right. I mean, and look, as a Christian, I mean, I'm a Bible-believing Christian.

So there's a lot of things I don't believe in. You know, I mean, I don't agree with, no, it's not that. I don't agree with premarital sex. Oh. I don't agree with adultery. I might be out of the group. I don't agree with homosexuality. So that's, you know, that's living as a Christian.

I don't make the rules. I just try to follow the rules that God said according to the Bible. And then some people don't agree with that. And then they jump on me. I think mainly for, like you said, gay marriage. Yeah. Have you softened a little bit on that?

Because I know it was a little bit more hard line before, but I mean. No, I mean, it's not on me to soften. I mean, I'm not my Lord Jesus Christ is my Lord. So he hasn't softened. He, you know, look, I don't have a problem with homosexuals or I do my show with Rob Parker, who part of our whole intro is that he goes to strip clubs.

Right. Which I don't agree with, but that's my boy. We friends. I mean, I don't want to sound cliche. I've had homosexuals at my house that are friends and we're cool. So it's not a matter of me not being able to get along with anybody and be friendly with people.

I may not agree with your lifestyle. You may not agree with mine, but we can still be cool. And you know, I don't expect everybody to agree with my beliefs and I don't think everybody should expect me to agree with their beliefs either, but we can still be civil and treat each other with respect and be friends. You're on a pro-gay podcast right now.

We're pro-gay podcast. Exactly. And I mean, and I don't know if you'd want to, but we can hang out afterwards and go, go kick it. Sure. So I have no problem with that. Kick back, hang sash. Yeah.

You name it. Rukru, meet up. Yeah. So, I mean, that's not right. So it's, you've kind of adopted the mindset like you're not for gay marriage. And so you're going to show that by not getting gay married, but people around you, if they get married to somebody,

like then that's fine. Yeah. I mean, look, everybody has the right to do what they want to do. Tolerance is tolerance, you know? And just like I may tolerate something I don't agree with, somebody else can tolerate something, me, if they don't agree with me.

Okay. I mean, we're supposed to be a pluralistic society. So that's what pluralism is. We're not going to agree on everything. Right. That's just a matter of fact. But I do think that like you shouldn't be able to tell somebody what they can and can't do

in terms of marrying somebody that they love in like a state ceremony. Like religion and state is a little bit different. They don't have to do in a church if they don't want to. If they want to get married in front of a clerk, I say absolutely 100%. And I don't see where the crossover where that would be with religion.

It's like, let's make that totally separate. They can still get all the rights. They can get, you know, if their loved one passes away, then they're entitled to inheritance or they can make end of life decisions for someone they've spent their whole life with. That sort of thing. I think that, I think we could probably agree

that in that context, gay marriage is probably a positive thing. Well, and I think like you said, if you want to separate the church and the religion, then the state shouldn't force or the government shouldn't force religions, not just Christian, Jewish, Muslim, whatever it may be, Islamic, shouldn't force religions

to have to go against their beliefs either. You see what I'm saying? So again, tolerance goes both ways. All right, let's go back to the NBA. I mean, that's, I think we're all on the same page. Again, you're on a pro-gay podcast. So what more can you ask, right? Not that either of us are gay, but we are.

We're pro-sex, we're anti-Nazi. We have a lot of beliefs that are very controversial. I'm anti-Nazi. Yeah, there you go. Welcome to the anti-Nazi podcast. There we go, we agree. Anti-racism. We agree, boom.

We agree. We're pro-Blake on this podcast too. Yes, yes. Just Blakes in general. All right, so the Kauai stuff. Did you see, can we start, did you clap back at all at the, what's the guy's name in Canada, Dan, whatever? Oh, I've got the quote right here.

Let's clap back. So I want to know. If I was clapped back. That was bullshit. It was Jay Enright. That was bullshit, Jay. I want to know if it's on site between you and Jay Enright. Because he took on the entire brew crew.

He said, Chris Broussard, who worked at Fox and is the biggest fucking fraud in the history of sports media ever. Now Jay apparently didn't get the memo that you're not a news breaker or a news-breaker. Correct, yeah, let me. That you're an analyst. First of all, I did see it.

And I had to Google Jay first. Damn. Let's go. I mean, real talk. I'm not gonna sit up here in line. I didn't know who he was. Yeah, I know him. Jay and Dan, yeah.

So I had to Google him to find out who he was. And then I laughed because to me, it was like somebody in the G League criticizing Damien Lillard. Damien Lillard came all Damien. I'm just saying. Okay, yeah. I'm not saying I'm the grind.

I'm broker, so I'll go along with it. You're game. I'm saying like Jay on rate, is that his name? Yes. He had a couple, as my partner Rob Parker would say, he had a cup of coffee and a sweet roll in the majors. He was at Fox Sports one four years, I believe. Yep.

And he got demoted back to double label. Okay. He went from the NFL to arena football. I'm not even gonna diss the CFL like that. But he went from, you know, the NBA to the G League. And I'm like getting the majors and stick before you criticize. I mean, real talk.

Like I've been in the majors for over 20 years. I worked at the New York Times for six years. Okay. One awards for my coverage of the New York Knicks. You know, one awards for my, I covered the Nets, the Knicks and the NBA. Went to ESPN the magazine and wrote for 12 years. One awards for feature stories I wrote there.

Transferred or morphed into television and radio and have never been fired, never had my contract, not be renewed. And so I'm in the majors and I've been here for more than two decades. You spent four years there and got demoted. There we go. So you're criticizing me.

My career cannot be defined by breaking transactions or missing out on transaction, making a few mistakes about transactions. Like I said, I'm proud of the work I did at the New York Times, ESPN the magazine, ESPN on television and now Fox. And the irony is that Jay Ornrate, in trying to critique me for getting something wrong,

he got two things wrong. He said ESPN kicked me out. ESPN didn't kick me out. ESPN offered me a multi-year contract and was surprised when I turned it down and went to Fox. He said, Fox kicked me out. As you said, I'm still at Fox. In fact, Fox kicked him out and didn't renew.

And this is just true. I'm not even trying to get in a pissing contest with him. Fox did not renew his contract. And I think his ire with me stems from two things. One, bitterness that Fox sports one didn't bring him back. And two, during the playoffs I called Canada soft. I said Canada is soft. The Raptors are soft and Drake is soft.

That's when they were down to one to fill right up. The last one is like empirically correct. Yeah. And I think Drake is an awesome rapper. This is dope. You are definitely an opinionist now. Right, right, right. That's a great tip.

All of Canada jumped on me. All of Canada jumped on me. Rightfully so. But here, here's what I apologize. Canada is not soft. Drake is not soft. And the Raptors are not soft. But J.R. right is soft.

Oh, so, okay. So what you just said makes a lot of sense. And I liked it because I feel like you don't stick up for yourself when people do that. And maybe it's just the type of guy you are. But I also, there's an element when you get something wrong. Do you ever come out and say like I, like Jalen Rose came out and was like,

I was wrong about Kauai. Have you done that? Because I think that would soften a little bit where people- I did say that about Kauai. Yeah. I sent out a, an Instagram and Twitter video and said, you know, I got it wrong. I own it.

I owned it. See, I don't understand why. But when, when people do that, like, especially if you're not a reporter, you're not pretending to be woge. If you get it wrong and you say you got it wrong and you're like, Hey, hand up, I got it wrong. I think it's fair.

It's a hard, the one thing I will not begrudge like why I said this even when Jalen Rose said he got it wrong. You guys do have to go on TV and say something interesting every single day for hours a day. So what would be the interesting thing to say? I don't know where Kauai is going. Like you can't go on TV and say, no one knows where Kauai is going.

That's not interesting. If you're hearing something and you're, and if you think it's real, you got to talk about it. Well, and also a lot of times stuff is fluid. You know, I still believe that had the Clippers not been able to pull off the deal for Paul George, Kauai would have joined the Lakers. You know, I don't think, I don't think he wanted to be.

Now I may be wrong, but I don't think he wanted to live anymore in Toronto, nothing against the Raptors, but just the cities from Southern California. I think he wanted to be in SoCal, but he also wanted a second star. He didn't want to have to try to carry a team again as the only star with all due respect to his teammates in Toronto.

And so I think that's why he was thinking about going to the Lakers. But then once the Clippers got that second star, it was a no-brainer. And look, initially Steve Barmer didn't want to give up as much as they were giving up. And then finally late Friday, that Friday night, he decided, all right, let's go all in

and the deal was made. And then it was an easy decision for Kauai. And I think it was the right decision. I'm glad, because it's much better for sports fans. Agreed. Yeah, I think so too. So now we've got LA with LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Paul George and Kauai on the Clippers. Who would you say has the advantage going into next year?

Like I'm interested to see how those matchups shake out because you never really know until they're on the court, but from your perspective, not as an insider, but as an opinion guide and analyst, how do you think that's going to shake out? I think the best duo is LeBron and Anthony Davis. But I think the Clippers are the better team right now. Because three reasons.

One, their pieces fit together. Like Kauai and Paul George are going to be dropped into that system and fit seamlessly. And all the role players, Lou Williams, Montrez-Harrill, Landry Chimet, they all know their roles. And there's going to be no problem. When we look at the Lakers, we see questions all over. What if DeMarcus Cousins doesn't start

or doesn't finish games? Is he going to be happy? What if Kyle Kuzma doesn't start or finish? Is he going to be happy? Frank Vogel, when we know if LeBron had his druthers, Ty Lou would be the coach. Maybe Jason Kidd is his second choice. And he's an assistant right there.

So how's that going to work out? So there are a lot of questions with the Lakers. Clippers, the fit is right. The chemistry will be right. Defensively, they're going to be tenacious with Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, arguably the two best wing defenders in the league. And then Patrick Beverly,

probably the best point guard defender at the point of attack. And then the coaching, Doc Rivers versus Frank Vogel, as I said, there's a lot of questions around the Lakers coaching staff. So for all those reasons, I think the Clippers have the advantage, but it's close.

I think those are the two best teams in the league. And I think that, you know, we have to see how it comes together for the Lakers. But if it comes together well, I think they could win the championship. I think the Lakers will win it within the next two. I was going to say that. Over under LeBron James' championships

for his career, four and a half. I would go under. I think he wins one more. One more? One more. Is there any truth to the fact that a lot of guys don't actually like to play with LeBron James? Because he will get the credit in the event of a win.

And if the team loses, it's like, oh, LeBron did everything that he could. He didn't have the support around him. I think it depends. First of all, role players definitely want to play with him. Okay. You look at Miami, Shane, Badier, and older Ray Allen, Mike Miller.

You know, guys have taken less money, even Cleveland when he went back there. Guys have taken less money to play with LeBron. And this year, once they want to sign up the veterans for the veteran minimum, all of them win. So role players, a guy that needs somebody to create your stuff,

they can just catch and shoot or their defenders, or they can catch it at the rim, Javel McGee and score. They love playing with LeBron. He's going to make it easier for him. Stars are the question. And that depends on the star. I love it that if I'm a Kauai Leonard,

I was saying this, even as I'm saying, he was going to go to the Lakers. In my mind, I was like, all season, I was saying he's going to the Clippers. Because if you win a championship with your own team, why in the world would you go to somebody else's team? So it didn't make sense to me, but I was just being told it and hearing it.

So I was saying he's going to the Lakers. But if you're a star and I respect that you want your own team. And so some guys who want their own team aren't going to play with LeBron. But there are other stars that will. Anthony Davis. Anthony Davis risked his image,

his public image, took less money to go play with LeBron. So it just depends on the circumstance. Where are we at with Kevin Durant? As far as our relationship. He's a future guest of ours. Are you making inroads in there? Well, we've had a storied past.

I'll put it this way. We've been texting with him. Or as you would put in DMing. Actually, I have texted with him. Is there a big difference? Oh yeah, you do. See, I didn't know the difference. Now I say DM.

Frankly, I think it's unnatural that a man would DM with another man. If it makes it any better, he reached out to me. I think that time. OK, OK. So this is why we're going to get into more of my brew crew, why I'm the leader of the brew crew. But this was a vintage brew crew when you're like,

we've been texting, but you've been DMing. That's just you having a little bit of extra like, hey, you don't know where the target is. You guys figure it out. So I like that by you. Are you guys cool? We haven't talked since then. But here's the thing with KD.

He goes back at like so many media members, including ex-players. Like when they say something about him, he will go back at them. And I'm not going to name names. Ketino Mobley said he did. But I know there's other players that he's gone back at immediately.

And so I assume when I see him, it'll be all love. I mean, I got no problem with him. And even in our DMing, as I said, on Undisputed, well, it was DM. Yeah, you could say whatever you want. We go back at it. We were going back at each other. You know, he was critical of me, he's called me names.

Then I'll go back. I won't call him names, but I'll go back and explain what I was saying. And we have a long debate. And what's happened with us in the past is that we've been able to come to an understanding because we do share, as I said on Undisputed, he's a Christian as well.

So that common faith has enabled us to always be able to let cooler hands prevail and come to an agreement. So hopefully that'll be the case when I see him next time. Do you think so? The reason I started texting with him, DMing, whatever, was I did an Instagram story of a basketball playing pickup hoops and he just replied, you all are trash, which I thought was funny.

But like, do you think he responds to too much? Because what we've done as a podcast is we used to think it was a little much, but post burner and like, I don't know what it is, but he's just kind of owns that he will mix it up. He will go into the comments and mix it up. No, you know what? And I've kind of said a similar thing.

The burner account, obviously that's way too much. And hopefully it doesn't have any more. Oh, he definitely has more. If you have one burner account, you have many. You can't quit the burner life, cold turkey. You gotta wean yourself off a little bit. That's a big time. But I, we talked about it on our radio.

So the eye couple, a couple of weeks ago, I was like, look, is Kevin Durant sensitive or is he just gangster? Is he just like, look, you put my name in your mouth. I'm coming at you. I like that. And I like that. Now the burner account obviously isn't gangster, but outside of that, maybe if he's moved on from that,

then I like the fact that, I mean, it's not for everybody. Like you said, I don't go back at everybody that goes at me. But if that's who he is, I'm fine with it. I'm fine with it. One thing I was worried about with Durant was just that it can take away your own happiness and quality of life.

Big time. If you let all that get in your head. It can also add to it though, because what I've seen from him recently, people send me screenshots all the time of him replying to just random people in his DMs. Like he's firing back on anybody. It could be some Instagram user with 20 followers.

And he's like calling him a little punk ass bitch, you know, stuff like that. I think for him, I don't think he's too sensitive. I don't think he's a gangster. I think he's somewhere in between, which is like a pretty normal person. He's a human child of social media. I mean, who realized at some point

that replying to people who were talking shit about him makes him feel better. And I think a lot of people out there, given if they were putting his shoes would probably do the same thing. Like if somebody slides in your DMs and it's like, hey, fuck you, I hate you. You're gonna respond to them,

and be like, hey, you're a punk ass bitch. And I've got a hundred million dollars more than you. Yeah, I think that's human. And I also think I've kind of settled on this. As long as it doesn't impact him negatively on the court. Yeah, which I don't think it has. Right. It clearly has. We've seen guys come to New York

and with the back pages and the pressure not be able to perform to the best of their ability. You can't say that about Kevin Durant. And I know he hasn't been in New York yet, but just wherever he's getting the pressure, he's getting the criticism. And even though he reads it all, sees it all, hears it all, it has not impacted him negatively on the court.

He can still go out and ball. So if he does that and he's happy, I'm cool with it. Do you think he and Kyrie are gonna work together well? Because that's a very interesting dynamic between the two of them, especially with Kevin Durant not playing for you. I think Kevin Durant's game fits with everybody. When you can shoot and you're seven feet tall,

you can fit with everybody. The guys that are hard to work with other stars are ball dominant guys. So now we wonder how's Westbrook and Hardin gonna work because they're both ball dominant. LeBron and Kyrie won the championship. I had their issues because they're both ball dominant. So with Kyrie is ball dominant,

but I think you understand Kevin Durant is the best player, maybe the best player in the world. So I think they'll work well. Now they're fully capable of winning the championship. And I would like to see them win a championship. If you put a gun in my head and said, will they win the championship? I think I would say no, but I hope they do

and I know they're capable of doing it. Okay, so it's interesting because Kyrie, he did have that experience with LeBron. He's gonna be playing next year. Kevin Durant's probably not gonna be playing at all next year. Kyrie will probably get him to the playoffs. I would imagine get him maybe win a round, maybe two rounds in the playoffs.

And then he's gonna have to deal with he's the alpha. Now we've got another alpha coming back. Now is it Kyrie's team or is it KD's team? And that's something that he's kind of had a problem with in the past. And I don't know if he'll be able to like deal, maybe he will at the start. I mean, winning kind of cures all the problems, right?

So if it works, then maybe it's gonna be good. But I have my doubts that he's gonna be able to become ball submissive if we're talking ball dominance. He's a ball sub now. And just let KD take over that team that he will have a feeling that he helped build that team. Well, it's easier with just two guys. You can have two guys both get their 25 points a game.

It's harder with three, because typically one has to step back unless he's just a past first point guard type player. So I think they'll work fine. I think the fact that they're good friends will help them. And I think Kyrie also was humbled a little bit in Boston. I mean, for him to call LeBron and apologize. Now, him saying it publicly,

I think he did that with ulterior motives. I think he did that to send a message to his younger teammates. Hey, you need to get in line. I needed to get in line once. You need to get in line now. However, it still took humility for him to call LeBron and apologize the way he did and recognize he needed,

you know, what LeBron was saying. So I think I'm gonna say that they can make it work. Can I do great moments in Brew Crew history? Real quick with you. Is it gonna be taking shots at you? No, it's not. Well, listen, I'll explain. Because I don't know how much of the positive stuff

people have in there. The Brew Crew started maybe as a joke, but now I actually think that you have an entertaining way about you that is interesting because you're not a reporter anymore. Well, I don't want to be a clown. No, you're not a clown. So we'll do it.

You can stop me if you don't want to do anymore. But the first is the LeBron reporting the news after the SI story. That's my favorite quote all the time. Well, ESPN asked us to confirm it. And you did. I was sitting there on the desk. Ryan Wentworth, myself, and I think Mark Stein.

And they wanted us to confirm it. Yes. And you did. So, you know, that's what I did. All right, so here's my favorite one. This one I think you actually will like when you did the ranking of the players and you said, I don't know if I was the first person to say it on air,

but I was the first person I heard say it on air. Steph Curry is the best shooter in NBA history. I think who said it before me? I don't know, but I love that line. That's a great line. I think I was the first person. I was the first person that I heard say it. I think.

I know Mark Jackson said they're the best shooting backcourt with Clay Thompson. Not the same. But I think I was the first person. We actually say that all the time. If we have a take that sounds good, but it's like maybe somebody else has used it, cover your ass the first time I heard it.

First person I heard say it. So that one, I love that one. And then the other one I had was when people were coming at you for the Tristan Thompson signs a three year, $53 million contract with the Cavs. People said it hadn't happened yet. You said he's willing to. That's a great qualifier.

See, that's not bad. You're dunking on the haters. Yeah, yeah. I mean, that was a miss. There's a whole backstory to that, but yeah, yeah. Listen, I think the brew crew is the most misunderstood like crew out there on the internet. Hey, I'm not part of the brew crew.

That's y'all. You're the leader of the brew crew. You're the leader of the brew crew. I don't know what y'all do with the brew crew. You lead it. Like I said, don't clown me. Let's respect each other and it's all good. So when you get things wrong,

like what's the one thing you got wrong that you like just eats at you? Like man, I got that one wrong. Well, everything you get wrong eats at you, you know? And so, yeah, I mean. Is there one though that sticks out that you're like, man, I really wish I had that one back? Right now it's the Kawhi.

Yeah, right, right. At this moment in time. But like I said, a lot of times things are fluid. And so, like for instance, whether it's me or any reporter, if you report that the Lakers, I'm just making something up, but the Lakers and the Cavs are talking about a trade for say,

say it was Kyle Kuzma for Colin Sexton. Just, just throw it out. That's first. And it doesn't happen as far as I heard. And it doesn't happen. It may look, it looks like you just got something wrong, but they actually may have talked. They had the conversation.

And they didn't go ahead with the trade. So, you know what I'm saying? So when you're reporting things as they develop, some things may happen, some things may not happen, some things change. I mean, the thing is with the Kawhi thing, you had a seismic change take place. I mean, the Clippers got a superstar, Paul George.

That changed everything. If Paul George had been there from the get go, it wouldn't even been a whole big drama of Kawhi. Where's he gonna go? So that's, you know, that's something to take into account too. Back in, I think it was the 2015 off season. That was the emojis where like Blake Griffin, Deandre Jordan, that whole thing was going down.

I had, I took your side in that when you were saying Mark Cuban was looking for Deandre Jordan, like because he was in Houston, what else was he doing in Houston at that time, besides hoping for a meeting with Deandre Jordan that he didn't get. But then Cuban tried to go on Cyber Dust, which is a very successful app.

That's true. Oh man, we used to do stuff with that. Yeah, and he fired back on you on that. Like in that situation, even though I feel like you were correct in your reporting, like at what point do you have to let a feud go with somebody like Mark Cuban? Well, myself, I don't hold on to feuds.

You know, I mean, even the Jay Anrath, Brew Crew has already moved on. I mean, really, like I don't waste my time holding on to a feud with somebody, worrying about what they think, what they said, whatever. So Mark Cuban and I went back and forth text. Was it texting? Oh, I think it was Black.

Yeah, whatever it was. Be careful. It was BBM. I think it was texting or... We'll say Blackberry message. Blackberry message. BBW, yeah. It was something, yeah.

But we went back and forth and we were fine. You know, he came out and said some things even after we're, again, our conversations were fine. Do I know for a fact that I was wrong? No, I don't. Cause a lot of people that were telling me this stuff went dark once Cuban got loud about it. People in Dallas went dark, you know?

And so he and I went back and forth. He asked me to retract it. I never retracted it. Cause I was like, I'm not sure it's wrong. And I haven't been told by these people. And so, but we kind of settled like we're all right. I saw him at a Dallas game. I was there doing sideline reporting.

We shook hands. It was cool. Now, he, like I said, he said a few things about me since then, but, you know, and I could have, I take the high road, all right? When he had his issues with the franchise and all the, and the, it wasn't me too at that time, but the sexual harassment, you know,

not him, but within his franchise. I didn't shoot at him, you know, with Mark Cuban when, when he came out about Trayvon Martin and he said, this was before obviously the, the tweet I put out about the Andre Jordan, but Mark Cuban said, if I see a black guy in a hoodie, you remember that quote? I'm going to go to the other side street.

And if I see a white guy with tattoos all over his face, I'm going to walk to the other side of street. And I hit Mark Cuban, I texted him, whatever it was. You know, it must have been text. And I said, look, I don't think you're a racist, but that was wrong. What you said, I said, no, the black guy just has to have on a normal article, just clothing, a hoodie.

But the white guy's got to, you know, put tattoos all over his face and look menacing for you to, and he came out. Now I'm not saying I was the reason, but he came out a day or two later and apologized for that. And so that's, look, I don't know where I stand with Mark Cuban. I haven't seen him in a while or talked to him in a while. As far as I was concerned, we left it good.

And when I last time I saw him, we shook hands and it was good, but you know, I don't know. I got one last question for you. This is more about your days when you were kind of like an insider, when you were maybe writing for the times, that sort of thing. We have a lot of insiders on this show, whether it's football or basketball.

I'm always curious, and I asked them this question, why do people talk to you? Why do people in the business, in like on the team, in the front offices, why do they talk to these people that they know are going to write articles? What is the motivation when you're reaching out to them? How can you know this guy will speak with me and share information with me?

Well, I mean, I've covered the league for 25 years. Since 19, almost we had 25, 26 years. So you just develop relationships, you know? And now most guys talk off the record. You know, when I first started covering the league, it was rare to see anonymous quotes. Peter Vessey was doing it, but for the most part, a lot of people weren't using anonymous quotes.

Now that's all you see are sources or anonymous quotes. So now everybody's talking off the record, but one is just the relationships you develop. Two, some guys may want to use you to get information out. They use you to give them information. So it's a back and forth, you know? So it's just, you know, guys in the league understanding the game, too,

and understanding the power of the media, understanding that you're going to be on television, on the radio, talking about them, perhaps shaping opinions about them, and they may want to have a good relationship with you because it's human nature that if we get along, it could soften what somebody says about you. Now you try, I try to be objective no matter what.

You know, whatever our relationship is, I'm gonna try to tell the truth, how I feel no matter what. But I think those are motivations that guys have, you know? All right, my last question. Seeky question, put in promo code, take you get $10 off Seeky purchase. So you said earlier in this,

and I respect the hell out of it because I think it's worth noting, you know, when we get in these moments where people get things wrong and people clown on each other and all this stuff, you've been in this business for 20 plus years. You've done all the things, you know, you've been on ESPN, you've been on FS1, those are the big leagues, and you've been successful at it.

What is like the one piece of advice you would give someone who's trying to get to the big leagues like you've been? Because I think you're in a specific situation where some people respect you, some people don't, but you've done it and you can't, you cannot deny that you've been here and been doing it. I think there, I'd say two things.

One, wherever you're at, like if you come right out of college and they got you covering high schools for a website or newspaper, don't be so focused on ESPN or FS1 that you don't excel where you're at. Like, you know, if you're so focused on, I gotta get up there and be on first take with Stephen A. Smith or whatever,

that you lose focus on what you're actually supposed to be covering. Cause the best way to get to ESPN, FS1, whatever, is to excel where you're at. Dominate your high school beat, dominate your college beat or whatever, and that's the best way for you to move up and get there. I mean, I started, Stephen A, I can name a host of people

who started out covering high school sports. I actually started out part time in the Cleveland playing dealer newsroom, you know, sitting there from three to 12 answering phones, move my way up to covering high schools, then move my way up from that to covering the pros. So that's one thing. The second thing I would say,

and some writers have done it, don't let yourself get kinda, like one of my biggest mistakes was I let myself get kind of pushed into a role I didn't want. And that was with the news breaking because as a beat writer, you know, breaking stories is part of it. I broke my share of stories

at the Akron Beacon Journal and New York Times. And then when I left the New York Times and went to ESPN, I told ESPN, I was like, I'm done with the daily grind. And I was writing feature articles for ESPN the magazine. And I was still on TV, they had me on television for my information and things like that. Cause you're talking to people around the league, you're getting information,

but I wasn't breaking stories and trying to break stories. I wasn't even concerned with that. I was doing long form stories or did several with LeBron James, Allen Iverson, Dirk Novitsky, things like that. I really enjoyed that. And I enjoy going on television, giving analysis, giving information.

That what turned me, my career, and it was great for me as well, was the summer of 2010, when LeBron and Duane Wade and Chris Bosch and all those guys were free agents. And I was like, I said, you know what? This is the biggest story of the decade. And I wasn't one of our, you know,

Mark Stein was the major news breaker at ESPN. You had Rick Buker and some other guys there. And I was working around the clock to try to break stories. And I broke several stories during that whole time, Wade and Bosch going to Miami, all that. And so I was doing really well that summer with breaking a lot of that news. And ESPN began to look at me as a news breaker.

And again, it was great for my career. It raised my profile. I got on NBA countdown with Magic Johnson and Michael Wilbine and John Berry and all that. But they, like I said, they kind of saw me in that role, which I never wanted at that point. I was done with that. But I kind of, you know, never really said,

look, I'm not, this is not the role I want. And I kind of let it, you know, and then I was half, you know, I worked hard at other things. I still was writing some for the magazine. I still was, you know, giving information on television. But I wasn't really fully trying to break a ton of stuff. And then I would try to hustle around the trade deadline or free agency and get some stuff.

But nowadays you really got to hustle like that year round, which I really wasn't doing. You know, I was doing a bunch of little things, all that. And so that can lead to some of the mistakes that I made. And so that's what I would say. Don't, that was one of my mistakes is kind of letting myself get pushed into this role of ESPN viewing me, maybe as the, he can be our Adam Schefter, the NBA,

which I never wanted. I just, that's not my lifestyle. That's not my personality. That's, I don't want to be as much as, as hard as I work and I've worked hard and work hard. I don't want to be working 24 hours a day. And when I'm with my family, I really don't want to get a text of something breaking.

I want to be able to spend time with my kids and not that those guys don't, but that was a mistake that I made. And that's why I'm so happy now to be in the role of an opinionist and an analyst, because I do have an educated opinion. I've covered the league for 25 years or 26 years, whatever it is.

Recognizing that this was something that you didn't want to be stuck in is something that doesn't always happen to people. Just because like you're, you're, you find that you're good at something and you get put in a position, your boss has encouraged you to do it this way. A lot of times people just stay in that lane

for the rest of their careers and be, you know, silently begrudging of the fact that they're there and just deal with it, but good for you for recognizing that's not where you want it to be. You look at a Zach Lowe who does great stuff for ESPN. He may have a nugget, nugget here or there, but he said he doesn't want to get into that news breaking role, you know, a Ramona Shelburne

who she breaks some stuff, but she's not trying to get into transactional news breaking and I never really define myself at that point as saying, look, I'm not trying to be the guy to try to break every trade or break every, you know, free agent signing. I kind of just let it go and let them perceive me

in that light and, you know, like I said, it can lead to making some mistakes. All right, Chris Brassard, thank you so much. You're a recurring guest now, so you have to come on anytime we ask. Hey man, like I said, I'm cool with being here. Y'all do good stuff. Yeah, appreciate it.

And we DM and text, so I understand how it, how the line got blurred so quickly. But thank you for coming on. You know, I'm not a child of the social media era. That's fair. I'm a grown man, so the DM and in texting is the same. Yeah, it looks the same now. They change this format.

You got the bubbles on both sides. Yeah, it is kind of the same thing. You're talking directly to someone. Chris Brassard, you can see him on FS1 on a million programs. Thanks so much, man. All right, man. That interview with Chris Brassard was brought to you

Check it out. Okay, let's get to some segments. First up, by the way, Taylor Luan will just not stop tweeting at me. That's tough. You're stuck in a Dan Orlovski. He's just one of our pollards. He's still fucking annoying about it.

All right, here you go. The Mike Rabel penis cutting story was on his podcast. Was it, what's it called? Bustin' With The Boys. Bustin' With The Boys, bleep that out, Hank. So yeah, there you go. There's the credit, and we can move on. Okay, Taylor, if you cut, please stop tweeting me.

If you personally cut Mike Rabel's penis off, then let's come, we'll go on your show to discuss. Yes, yes. But you have to do it. But you have to go full John Bobbitt on them. Yes. All right, first up, we have a Stay Woke, PFT. What do you got?

Big Stay Woke. So this comes to us courtesy of Twitter user, Maggie Kurth Baker, okay? There was a report that in 1989, the cash-strapped Soviet Union paid Pepsi with 17 submarines, a cruiser, a frigate, and a destroyer in exchange for $3 billion worth of Pepsi, causing Pepsi to become the sixth largest military power,

at least navy-wise, in the world. And so she says that she's decided to become a Pepsi, still has a secret navy truther. And I'm all on board for this. This is an ultimate mid-July story. I'm all on board for it. Like, I believe it for one reason. If you remember, there was a Superbowl commercial

back in the late 90s, where it said that you could use Pepsi points to buy a Harrier jet. Do you remember that? They listed all the shit you could buy with using Pepsi points. And it was just normal stuff for the most part, like binders, shoes, whatever. But they also said at the end, kind of as a joke,

wink, wink, a joke, you can buy a Harrier fighter plane, and then someone got a big financing crew together and bought as many Pepsi points. And Pepsi was like, no, we're not gonna give you the jet, because they needed it for themselves. And if you look at the competition, Coke has a navy. You saw that boarding video from the Coast Guard of that dude just jumping on the submarine,

banging on the door, trying to get access to all that Peruvian flake that was inside. So Pepsi needed to start a war against Coke. So now that you've revealed this, what next? That's a good question. I think we just live in fear. It was huge. That was a huge reveal.

I'm gonna give you credit. You got excited. I'm excited. It feels like a big thing. But where do we go from here? When somebody asks, is Pepsi okay? You say, sir, yes, sir, and you stand at attention. You take that fucking Pepsi.

I don't know. Are they okay? Private. How's their navy doing? They haven't lost a war since then. Hmm, interesting. Think about it. So who came up with this?

This was just passed along from Maggie Kurth Baker. But this was an actual story from the 80s. Yeah, yeah, yeah, right. That they got this. This is the ultimate July training camp has to start. And if I could tie it into football real quick, you saw that big like $1.6 billion bust of cocaine that came into Philly.

Mm-hmm. And Chris Long, all said. Yeah, JP Morgan. Noted drug user Chris Long is recently retired. He doesn't have anybody else to donate a salary to. So he's probably funding a bunch of drugs being imported. How about Chris Long? Like not reading the Mount Rushmore that we did on Wednesday.

That was an all time high moment by him. Yeah, very high. All I'm saying is. Put down the bomb, Chris. All I'm saying is Pepsi. I am, I'm so squarely in your corner now. Okay. I'm done with Coke because I'm in fear of your Navy.

I actually don't mind Pepsi, honestly. Pepsi is fine. I like it. It's fine, it's fine. It's not like great. I'm a Mountain Dew guy. Does Pepsi make Mountain Dew? Mm-hmm.

Fuck. All right, we love Pepsi. We love Pepsi here. It's great. It's better than fine. It's better than Coke. Yeah. Wait, we're telling you to drink?

Yeah, but what is, does Coke make anything that we drink? Crack. It's not sponsored. Body armor, but no. But okay, all right. All right, so yeah, we're good. We like every drink exactly the same because they're all delicious.

Except for Pepsi a little bit more because they have a military. Yeah, except Gatorade, fuck that. Yeah, you know what? Actually, if you drink Coca-Cola, it's disrespecting some troops. Until body armor comes back. Until body armor comes back.

Okay. All right, we have a Udissot. What do we say this is gonna be? We're gonna do. Oh, it's bad visual. Good visual. No, it might be good or bad visual. So here's how we're gonna frame it, okay?

It's like if you go to a beer company's website, nice fucking sirens. I just lock eyes with Hank every time the siren is there. I know he has nothing. It's not his fault at all. And there's nothing he can do about it, but we just have like a silent, we need this fixed moment every time the siren goes off.

Okay, so this is like when you're going onto like a beer company's website and asks you how old are you? Yeah. To make sure that you're 21 to get through it. If you're less than 18 years old, you need to fast forward through the next 30 to 45 seconds of this podcast.

If you're over 18, then you can listen to it because it's a good visual for C.C. Sabathia for packing the biggest fucking dip that I've ever seen on TV on Tuesday night or was it Wednesday morning? Whenever it was, it was like half a tin of skull that he just put in there after he got kicked out of the game.

And so. Did he do the horseshoe? It was like the whole thing. Yeah. He grabbed his mouth and I mean, it was impressive. A good visual from where I'm sitting, but if you're younger than 18

or also just impressionable in any way, no matter the age, it was a bad visual. It was an impressive feat of athleticism no matter how old you are. True. I'll put it that way. You can separate the physical act and how crazy is that he fit all that stuff in his gums.

Yes. You can separate that from the product that he was put. I mean, he could have put like a lot of toilet paper that big, I would have been impressed. Yeah. Did he just go bomb or did he spread it out like horseshoe stuff? Oh, I think he just went bomb.

It was a bomb. Yeah. I call him BCC. Sebathia, because we weren't supposed to see that. Yeah. Exactly. All right. Big Riley joke.

Bad Sports Town wrapping it up before we get licensed to Jill in here. Bad Sports Town, the city of New York. Yes. And is it why? Because Baker said what? Baker was very happy to have Odell Beckham in Cleveland. And he said, I'm very excited for him

to be able to play in front of fans that will actually come out and support him. I love it for two reasons. One, Baker, just always a lightning rod. Two, this is how Odell Beckham feels, because he definitely told Baker this. Like this is one of those situations where Baker is kind of speaking for Odell Beckham.

They didn't support me. Yeah. I also didn't realize that I said, when we had Dr. Phil on Wednesday, because we taped these things and then they go away for like two months. I guess I said I don't like Cleveland. I don't like LeBron and the Cavs.

That part of Cleveland. The Browns and the Cavs, I've always said Browns fans and Cavs fans are not the same fans in my mind. Here's what you do, Big K. Because I find myself in the same shoes as you when we tape and interview a long time ago. And then something that I said gets brought up. It's like, what?

I've evolved since then. Yeah. You've evolved since then. But I have always stated that I think Cavs and Browns fans are not the same fans, even though they are. They are, but they get in different modes when they root for one team. Right, because the Browns, I like the Browns.

Like I want them to do well. The fans are always like bundled up, like real snug and big khaki coats all the time. Yeah, it's great. It's a fun sports town when the Cavs are playing. Also, maybe Odell should have a little bit of awareness because here in New York, we have some of the nation's largest sporting goods manufacturers.

And the way that he treated sideline equipment was disrespectful to the jobs and the work that they put in. So naturally, he lost the audience there. Fair, true. And Cleveland, they just have quickened. So as long as you don't disrespect subprime mortgages. And Gilbert, then you'll be fine. Or the question on all of Cleveland and Detroit.

Odell Beckham's hair is the it's the hairstyle equivalent of comic sense. Now that I think about it, I don't think so. I do. I think that it's got to be something a little bit more. Well, no, he cut it. He cut it. Oh, you're saying now.

No, no, no, the old one was comic sense. All right, it's like more like winged in. Winged in. You didn't know what was going on. Yeah, winged in. Jill, you ready? License to Joe's been sitting here the whole time. And then I say her name.

And you're like, what me? You just have not been listening to this podcast. That's OK. Jill, come have a seat. Jill, sit down. We're going to do license to Joe. We're going to wrap up the show. Wrap up the week.

Monday, I think we have a certain Blake of the year and maybe a British open winning Blake as well. Calling in. We'll see if he wins. Well, I'm first to report on part of my take. Brooks Kepke has won the British Open. There you go. The open championship.

Don't do your watch. Suck it, Brandon. You must credit us. That's Randy Chamby right there. Which one? The guy on the left? Yeah. He looks like a Brandless John from Wobbly.

Yeah, we're just watching TV. All right, Jill, what's up? Hello. Hello. Good to have you back. Hello, Jill. Hello. What's going on?

What's been what's the buzz? What's what's going on in the Jilly football world? I have a couple of questions for you. But first of all, I want to get to that I'm really not mad. Yeah, yeah. But I am disappointed. OK, and what? I never took you, Mr. Big Cat.

Yeah. For an anti-vaxxer. Yeah, I know. You know what? It's sad. But I just it's part of my beliefs. Have you read the new studies that have come out 40 years ago by a discredited Danish doctor?

Jill. I have read all of them. And are you sure you haven't interviewed Jenny McCarthy? No, we have not interviewed Jenny McCarthy. Now, I can't. He did watch a lot of singles out growing up. Jill is so good that I don't know if she's joking. Are you joking?

Moi? Yeah, OK, good. All right, so we're all on the same page. I am very much an anti-vaxxer. Yeah. Even LeBron James gives us some shots. Yeah. All right, go ahead.

OK. This one is not so that I'm not disappointed, but I'm more proud of Hank. Not disappointed, proud. That's a little proud of Hank for not crapping himself. Coming out of this three year drought of not getting a boner. Oh, yeah. Congrats, Hank.

I am. I had no idea where that was coming from. Yeah, so proud. Yeah, he did. I mean, he finally did it. It must have been hard on you. No, it wasn't. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah.

Yeah, we call him Hank Cockwood now. Roast. It's good to be back. It's good to be back. Just. Yeah, congratulations, Hank. All right, anything else that you're not mad but disappointed? Well, no, I think that takes care of this week.

OK, great. So you want to do some license to Jill? Oh, OK. You've got some questions. Do you have, you're looking at us. Julie, I'm not going to be a snitch, but that sounds like you didn't listen, and you just asked your son for some not mad disappointed.

Oh, no. I have listened. I, you know, Dr. Phil, everything I listen, I listen, I listen. That was disrespectful. Would you like to apologize to your mom? Sorry, Jill. Thank you.

OK. The signs look for us. That's not good radio. Yeah, you've been absolved. Oh, that's right. You've been absolved. I'm sorry, you know, but. OK.

No, it's all Jill. Do you have the questions? I have them. OK. OK. All right, Hank's going to ask them. Good. Jill, what are the best flavors of jelly beans

to give to someone you hate? Definitely. Licorice. Yep. I like licorice. No, you can have more. You can have more. I like it.

Oh, the white ones, the peppermint or something. Yeah. They don't have much flavor. We don't like the red ones. What about those flavors that they make to try to be weird where it's like boogers and dirt and all that stuff? Oh, that's Harry Potter. That's the Harry Potter ones.

Oh, no. I don't read books. Yeah. But you see movies. Yeah, I don't watch movies about books. OK. All right. It's too close.

Hey, Jillie, my mom's 50th birthday is coming up. What should a poor college student get her? I have a brother, but I'm clearly the favorite son, so expectations are high. A trip to Europe. Oh, OK. Very in line with a 50-year-old. She costs him a lot of money.

Borrow her credit card, borrow it, and then you can return it later and charge it all. Is that good? That's good. So what you can say in that instance, you can be like, mom, I know I used your money to pay for it, but my gift to you is letting you treat yourself because you never do it.

And it's all about the love. And also be like, you can blame dad that I did it. It's not you doing it. Good pick. OK. Dearest Jillie, on about $10,000 deep in credit card debt, any advice on how to get out of it? If it's possible, I'd like to not pay any of it.

That feels very impossible. Go to Vegas. Yeah, go to Vegas. Try to win it back. Take a couple hundred, but. No, I'm saying this is Jill. You guys are, you guys are. Oh, sorry.

We're supposed to let you in. Sorry, sorry. Exactly. You could go to Vegas. You could go to Atlantic City. Take a few dollars, try to win it back, or move out of the country. Oh, there you go.

That's what I would do. Flee. Which country? Italy. Go to Italy, hide in those hills, you know. Those hills in Italy. Everyone knows them. Well, the Tuscan, you know, go to Tuscany and go to the winery.

Let's not tell people to go back to other countries. No, no, no, no, no, no. Very problematic. Not good. Well, one other suggestion is just declare bankruptcy. So in the United States, we have this great thing where it's basically like shooting the moon in cards, where if you just get into enough trouble,

you're in no trouble at all anymore. Correct. It's pretty cool. It's a pretty cool. It used to be easy in Florida to do that. Oh, believe me, we know. OK. They don't even know finance.

They don't even have Florida. All-time favorite movie for Jilly football. Forrest Gump. Butch Cassie and Sundance K. Oh. A true classic. You Paul Newman, Newman Gump. Best lines in that movie.

What about Coolhand Luke? Coolhand Luke? It was OK. Butch Cassie is my all-time favorite. It's a failure to communicate. Shake it off here, boss. Shake it off. Another one would be Weekend at Bernie's.

That's one of your favorite movies? Oh, my god. OK, that's basically what we have to do with Hank when he's coming off a bender in the office, just walk him around. Damn, that's one of your favorite movies. All right. Hey, Jilly Beans, is a true giving birth hurts?

If it's as painful as every woman describes it, why did you decide to do it five times? Who can remember? It was the seventh. There's not time for this. Eighties, actually. Eighties, sorry. But, you know, who can remember?

I'm 69 years old. But that's in the past. Who cares? Well, you didn't answer the question at first, which was, does it really hurt? Yes, it does. Yeah, OK. It really, really hurts.

All right, myth debunked. It is pain. We give that person. But you can get drugs. And then it's not so painful. Now I'm interested. It didn't hurt when Arnold Schwarzenegger did it in junior. That's true.

Callback, Titus. All right, last question. Sup, Jilly, if you could change any one thing in today's world back to how it was when you were in your 20s, what would it be? When were you in your 20s? 60s? 1942. Yes.

I was in my 20s in the 70s. I would go with. Better cocaine. The 49ers would be good again. The 49ers would be good again. Give me Joe Montana any day. I think I would go without laptops. No, get rid of laptops.

So keep phones, but no laptops. Correct. OK, that really makes no sense. It probably doesn't make sense. I can't figure out a laptop. I barely can figure out a phone. So that's a personal thing. You just can't figure out a laptop.

You know what? How are you going to watch Ruff and Rowdy, Jill? Jill was trying to get me to set her up with Ruff and Rowdy. I was trying to ask her. I was like, Jill, if I send you this login, are you going to watch it on your laptop? She's like, yeah. Sure, but I could also contact my darling Jake,

and he can set me up. This is true. Yeah, also, if nobody had laptops, we wouldn't be running this issue with the whole new Twitter design. True. Good point. There you go.

Strictly iOS. Oh my god, if Twitter changes anything on the phone and Jill has to deal with it, that's going to be a disaster. Because I can't do it on the computer. We know. But if Twitter likes to change things every now and then, just fuck with people. No.

Yeah. When that happens to you, you're going to have a meltdown. Yeah, and you should go after Jack. Just at Jack. At Jack. On Twitter. He's the boss of everything. Oh, OK.

He is not ready for the jelly beans. You might just shut the whole site down. We'll get into it next week. All right, we'll see everyone Monday. Blake, maybe two Blakes on Monday's show. At least confirmed one Blake on Monday's show. Love you guys. Hey, I don't got a stance.

I make money moves. If I see you now, sweet, that means don't bug me. You want a boss? You a working bitch? I make blood moon. I see, say, see, go to other who? Let's find out if you can't be. You know where I'm at.

You know where I'll be. You in the club. It's so calling. I'm there. I get paid a fee. I be in and I don't think so much. I'm more excited. I'm sick.

Don't give a fuck about who is part of me. Just to make that this is my boat. They're taking the heart of me. I don't bother with these girls. Don't let these girls bother me. They be free to take their calls. Bitch, I'm full. They try to be.

Look, I made you silly some days. I made you silly some food. I made you spill on your bed. My pussy feel like a lake. She want to see you in the face. I'm like, oh, I let him do what he want. He got me easy on the rock. And you know where I'm at.
