Starting point is 00:02:09 Boy! Boy! Boy! Boy! Boy! Hey! Boy, how's it going boys? How's it going boys?
Starting point is 00:02:17 Good, how's it going boys? Hi there boys, why don't you say hi Y'all, because I bet you there's the Kappa Diabe T-shirt being worn back on the next year. Yeah, but I wanna say it's boy boy, I said이쓻 hashtager you show up, from Kappa Diabe T-shirt Yeah, no, he actually worked it perfectly. What are you doing Hank? I was trying to make like a bonk sound blaze up blaze up That's right. You know me and Hanks blade me Hank and Charles Barkley are high on the Blazers right now And I mean they're fun team to watch. Why don't why do you hate fun big cat? I? Okay, we want to rehash on Monday. I don't hate fun whatsoever. Damian Lillard is so much fucking fun to watch
Starting point is 00:02:51 What I've said from the start is The blazes aren't gonna win this series and they're not gonna win this series That is the worst shooting team. I've ever seen though the Lakers The Lakers are I don't even know if they practice shooting. They were so fucking bad They're a LeBron was doing this thing that he does every now and again where he could take the ball to the hole Any time that he wanted and he was just settling for a lot of really bad threes He's like scared of his own powers. I wasn't even on LeBron though because they just everyone shot bad They shot 15% from three which is like an insanely low a number for an NBA team Danny Green
Starting point is 00:03:26 You stink. I don't know everyone stinks. Dwight Howard looks weird LeBron just passed it to AD in the in the in the clutch at the end of the games doesn't want anymore truly is the wash Yeah, their offense is broken. It was funny But before we sat down to tape this Hank was talking about how like he is he's rooting so hard against LeBron He roots harder against LeBron than he does for the teams that he likes and big cat was like you're gonna burn yourself out early Yeah, I think there is some truth. No, they're not we're gonna need you We're gonna need full Hank hate in the tank for the next series in the series after that If they can somehow survive the gentleman sweep coming their way from the Blazers
Starting point is 00:04:00 I am I am I do want the Lakers to lose very badly But I just don't think they're gonna lose this series How about I don't know so I I'm not gonna get my hopes up for this series for LeBron to lose this series Because I just don't believe that's gonna happen. Carmelo just have no respect for the bubble MVP I do have you don't think it matters. You know I have matters great respect for the bubble MVP I think Damien Lillard is so much fucking fun to watch I just I'm not gonna get my hopes up for a series that I don't think the Blazers are gonna win And I don't know if you guys have noticed this
Starting point is 00:04:32 But you know that theory where if you like buy a red car all of a sudden you notice all the red cars that there are on The road and you're like wow everyone's got one of these every time CJ gets the ball He goes tween tween big cross big cross step back to freedom blast their face off. Yes, he does It's his thing. It's a signature movie. It's like his crab dribble So so I I like the Lakers, they're not gonna win the title. I can guarantee you that. Oh, yeah That's I watched them tonight. I was like this team is broken I do still think they're gonna win this series Maybe and maybe I'm wrong if they don't win this series and LeBron is done
Starting point is 00:05:06 No, I'll go that's kind of what it is like it's either LeBron and Ad are still have their powers or if they don't then guess what they're done I mean ad is still young. Yeah, he's fine, but he also being held down by LeBron He's being held down by LeBron, but yeah I mean he did have a triple double tonight But I still think LeBron's that kind of guy where you just expect him to just be like all right now We're gonna win is ad afraid to be the alpha with LeBron around him. That's the question that people are asking Also, how but LeBron is so fucking bad at free throws. It's crazy, man. No clutch. It's crazy
Starting point is 00:05:41 They also do you see those disgusting tune squad jerseys? Yeah, okay. All right. This is unpopular opinion alert I like the shorts part if it was just the shorts part of the jersey I'm all in but combined with with the top. No, thank you hard pass Yeah, I look like they were like used to wipe up cocaine on the set of Miami Vice LeBron just was like he was he was he was like pimping it too much the jersey on his walkout I didn't like it. I didn't like it and kicking over to the east. I actually do think that the buck stink I think yeah, no, so Hank the magic earned their pins. Hey, I want to give you credit and For saying the buck being the first to be the buck stink guy. Thank you. That was your call. You were right on that
Starting point is 00:06:21 Maybe not right on the Nets, but that's okay. They almost came back Yeah, I'm out on them. They didn't look bad if they looked any better KD would be like hey, maybe I'll play for this team next year Yeah, they uh, I you know, they were to get injured yesterday I'd be in like basketball Nirvana like everything is going because everything's wide open Yes, but hey, we're getting injured like hurts a lot It's been a bad couple days for guys who dies with guys with sprained ankles around Hank Yeah, I think the I think the Clippers are still the best team, but I think the Clippers are still the best team Who is David Stern rooting for in the finals?
Starting point is 00:06:54 See for the ratings probably first LeBron. Yeah, Guiness Giannis first LeBron would probably be the the ratings bonanza, but even still I don't or maybe no be Laker Celtics That would probably be it, but uh, yeah, it was a good first two days. I mean basketball all day is the best The only other one that the only other game I mean I watched every second of every game because it was so awesome The poor zingus technical foul was bullshit that game and Luca is Incredible Lucas so fucking good and I love whenever an announcer starts talking about a guy's hips And they talk talk about Lucas hips like all game long. Yeah, Mark Jackson sound like his hips are so nice Just paint the side of his leg white
Starting point is 00:07:37 I thought that the Clippers actually looked like dog shit on defense They're supposed to be the team that can shut down any high-scoring team out there They're the team that has the best perimeter. They've got Playoff P. Yeah, they've got Pat Beverly. Yeah, and they were not able to do anything against Mavericks Well, they won. Yeah, but I'm saying like the Mavericks the Mavericks played without Mavericks offense Yeah, the Mavericks Luca is incredible. I don't think anyone can stop Luca like I don't think that's a I just don't think there's anyone Stop Luca. That's how good he is. I just think the like I the first the first round Teams are getting themselves
Starting point is 00:08:15 I mean the Clippers like have barely played together as a team But I I still think when the like chips are down like Kawai's the type of guy. I just don't care how he looks right now It's like once they get to the end of series like in the Western Conference finals Like that's all I care and tip for the youngsters out there follow your shot Kawai was following his shot He always does and he was getting all those rebounds mr. Fundamental Did you guys also see the most relatable clip of all time of him walking in the arena? Yes He had like an iPad out and and and he just looked down at his screen
Starting point is 00:08:44 But you could see on the camera that there was nothing pulled up But he looked down when he was walking past everyone so no one like said anything to him right? He was just the home screen. He was charging Kawai probably just walks around looking at an iPad and he's just like this is amazing technology Just like fascinated by the by the screensaver on it. But yeah, good first two days I mean, this is like I said, it's it's fucking awesome to have sports on all day long So what else any other takeaways from the first two days? I mean Hank, so Gordon Hayward gets hurt Yeah, I mean the cells are gonna win that series, right?
Starting point is 00:09:20 Yeah, even without Gordon Hayward. They're good. They'll win the series on corn here I don't know about going forward. I mean you might be back for the for the Eastern finals You're here. He might be your heat might be the team in the east now the wide open heat Tyler hero, baby You it would now are you gonna be conflicted though if the heat going around you'll have very much admit the Jimmy Butler? Yeah, very much really good about this, but Jimmy Jimmy Butler selling 20 dollar cups of coffee. So everybody's making money Hey, but yeah, listen the bag doesn't sleep J. Butt is making the most out of his time down there in Florida But yeah, he's uh, listen, I am going to be very conflicted, but I think with this heat It's not about so much J. Butt as is there a top 20 team top 20. They're top 20 team
Starting point is 00:10:01 He's got a good guy. Yes Are I think that if the if the Lakers do lose to the Blazers or like LeBron gets hurt I actually think a Laker fan might try to kill me. Yeah, that's possible. Yeah Yeah, like that might actually you have to go fight somebody in Temecula People just need to have my back all you all the Lakers haters all LeBron haters like Hank You need to start having my back more Laker Dan because we know what happens with Laker Dan. I can't support that. Why? Because we know what happens. Oh, okay. Yeah that okay. Yes, I agree on that I'll be your body rights. All right, Billy. You're my bodyguard, Billy
Starting point is 00:10:36 You know, so there's that picture that big cat post where it's him as the Laker fan with the Brian trophy on his head. Yeah, you remember the Laker bros those guys. That's a mean Yeah, kind of went away. It's like two Billy football. Yes High-fiving each other. It's awesome glasses. Just saying bro. Yeah, that is you Billy You were awesome. Yeah, Billy Laker. I'll go get a yellow security shirt. It'll be sick. That would be sick All right, so then we have hockey playoffs the caps are still alive still alive, baby Still alive Todd Reardon got a brain transplant after the first period The fight is really what turned around. There's a lot of scrappiness out there
Starting point is 00:11:12 And I'll take some time somebody alerted me to this and this is another good Tom Wilson excuse People are saying that Tom Wilson pushed a guy into the boards when in reality He was trying to prevent the guy from skating headfirst into the boards probably saved his life But they were saying that the boards in Toronto are livelier than they are at any other hockey That's a bounce to they got bad bounce to the board So Tom Wilson actually if you board somebody in Toronto, it's actually not that bad Okay, it's like pushing him into a trampoline Do you ever think like at some point the amount of excuses that caps fans have to make for Tom Wilson's like?
Starting point is 00:11:46 We just spend all of our energy just making excuses for Tom Wilson Maybe for some caps fans, but not for me because I'm so used to making excuse about everything that I get It's like a lot of it's a lot of energy spent on that Have you noticed I think it's you could mind like all the Bitcoin in the world If we just took all the energy caps fans use for Tom Wilson denial. Yeah dirt coin. That's what this one is I so there's something about watching sports though and having like a take that you're willing to defend to the ends of the earth That makes watching sports more fun like with you and mellow every single time that Every time I missed a shot because I guess and every time Tom Wilson gets away with doing something borderline dirty
Starting point is 00:12:22 I'm like, yes, and it's just I do not say yes I laugh when mellow does mellow does a fucking crossover and then bricks a shot Yeah, you total I I laugh but what I'm saying is like it's fun to just watch sports and root for your takes Yeah, of course. Of course, um, of course. I mean if the Lakers like lose this series, I'll I'll be like fuck well I've now stuck myself because I do think they're gonna win this series But if they lose this series, I will ultimately be happy because I don't like the Lakers And I want LeBron to lose and be like ha ha first-round exit, but I also be wrong I really want the Lakers just lose in the next round. Yeah. Yeah, that would be the perfect spot
Starting point is 00:13:00 And we are watching the Blackhawks and the Golden Knights right now. It's 3-3. I'm just gonna assume they win I'm gonna assume they win. I love the Blackhawks goalie pads. Yeah, they're awesome. They're like brown Listen youngest team in the playoffs. There you go Yeah, you can always you can always fall back on that if your team loses You're like youngest team and what it is 3-1 right now, right? It takes out the fact that their best players are the oldest players in the team But the youngest team in the playoffs how sick would that be if both the Blackhawks and the capitals came back from 3-0 In advanced would it be unbelievable? You might actually say it's it's bad sportsmanship for their opponents to be swinging away
Starting point is 00:13:35 When they're up on a 3-0 count. Mm-hmm. Yes, so we should talk about that in a hot seat cool Throne we're talking about that on a hot seat cool throne anything else we have About the playoffs. Oh hard knocks hard knocks Hard knocks the bummer hard knocks the bummer the only thing I took away from hard knocks tonight was Seth Ryan Rex Ryan's son is skinny as he's like a bean stock That sucks. He's like the deuce Gruden of the Ryan family the most in shape of all Yeah, but no, but see even deuce like John John has muscle. He's just an old guy. Uh-huh. This
Starting point is 00:14:15 Seth Ryan is like the opposite. He's like an ultramarathoner body. Yeah. Yeah, it's not I just I don't know Kind of bum me out, but they did a lot of tonight. You could tell hard knocks is Really struggling this season and I'll give him a pass because it's very tough probably to do But they had like six different flashbacks to previous hard knocks Seth Ryan, you remember him hard knocks 2010 Andrew Whitworth, you remember him hard knocks 20 2009 I just kept on doing those. I did like that. We got our first hard knocks spiral of the season It's a Herbert pass. Yep. That was a sexy slow-mo spiral right there. That was sexy and then in the game music
Starting point is 00:14:55 That was that was great. I got the blood pumping for a minute. Yes I'll admit it make base started doing the Monday night football theme song and it was fucking electric And they they like dubbed it in with him doing it and it was like ooh football is coming back And then we also saw Jared Goff hitting hold and holding ones because he's just like an incredible I'd forgotten he was left-handed. Yeah, that's a big mind fuck. Yeah, we've been to that house We checked on that golf green. We almost broke a window. Yeah, I think I fucking scold one like we into the neighbor's yard Yeah, I was thinking back to that because people like whoa you you went to Jared Goff's house as we were watching the caps games We had we had hard knocks on game of thrones. That's right
Starting point is 00:15:33 Jared Goff's house, and I just remembered I went into his bathroom and he's so rich that he doesn't even have locks on his doors Yeah, that's when you've reached it when you're like fuck it. You know what if somebody walks in on me shitting I've got 60 million dollars. Yeah, I don't care. You know what? It's probably good for them. Yeah, they get a show All right Let's get to our hot seat cool throne hot seat cool throne is brought to you by our friends at Bud light Bud light seltzer hot seat cool throne brought to you by Bud light seltzer on the hot seat this week our beer Runs with sports being back our friends at Bud light. No, you can't miss any precious seconds of the game So head to Bud light comm slash delivery and get ice-cold Bud light and Bud light seltzer delivered straight to your door
Starting point is 00:16:12 So you don't have to miss any action. That's Bud light comm slash delivery Bud light comm slash delivery Hot seat cool throne Billy. Why don't you start? Oh? Thank you. I would like to put the Bengals offensive line on the hot seat Okay, there was a gift that was released of Joe bro running for his life in training camp while Four defenders chase him and a lot of people were saying hey seven defenders Yeah, it was a lot and it was saying like Joe maybe a opt out. Mmm. He was quick though. That's it Yeah, I mean, he's not on the hot seat. Just the offensive. Yeah, the Tigers chasing you
Starting point is 00:16:51 You don't have to outrun the tiger just have to outrun the guy next to you. Mmm. That's what they say Yeah, and my cool throne is the monstars Because as Hank comments, we already mentioned that Ron James. How did you get a hot seat cool throne taken when you already when you went first? because we already discussed it So I'm starting to think because Billy said We I always get screwed because I go last and hot seat cool throne now. I'm realizing I think that's just a built-in excuse that you don't actually come on Billy's hot seat is always me Yeah, I'm going last
Starting point is 00:17:25 Oh Throne Banana boats. Oh because Mel versus LeBron. There you go. Okay, and we're back. Yes. Nice job cool. Throw me. All right Hey, go ahead. Cool. Don't Jake My hot seat is the Suns Yes, so so good. You're probably thinking you know everyone's talking about the Suns today They were trending on Twitter everyone's talking about the Suns the Suns the Suns you probably think maybe it's cuz you know They went eight. No, they're not in the playoffs people are mad about that
Starting point is 00:17:57 It's not because of that. There was a clip on a no-jumper podcast of an Instagram model talking about how She sucked off seven guys on one NBA team in the same room at one time Alanis Morcette. No, I don't know. I don't know what that references and Then it came out that it was the Phoenix Suns So everyone was just talking about like how the Suns all got sucked off in the same room Cool throwing Devon Booker. He was first. Well, he's yeah, naturally. Yes
Starting point is 00:18:29 Allegedly first. Yes allegedly first, but this definitely I mean they went eight. No, right? So Is this gonna be a trend? Yeah, I mean who I mean Tom Brady's drinking fucking fake, you know, like cabbage juice from Alex Guerrero It's just if a team gets sucked off and goes eight. No that that might work That might be the new team TV 12. I'm hoping that this was after the bubble because then we could that could be our gone Fishing instead of like photoshopping a team like It was just she was telling she was recollecting a story. Yeah, it sounded like it didn't happen in the bubble Yeah, no, definitely not in the bubble and it was I was just laughing thinking about you know
Starting point is 00:19:10 Like the Phoenix Suns like front office and like the people who run their PR being like, oh, you know We went eight no in the bubble like could not have gone to the bubble and done any better Like we killed it Devon Booker came in second MVP like all this stuff and it's like oh the Suns are trending Why are we trending and then they watch the clip and they're like, oh my god. Oh, are you buying this tank? Yeah, oh, yeah. Yeah, 100%. Oh, yeah, just because I want it so very badly to be true Everyone started retweeting the all-bored the pain train tweet that the Suns had a few weeks ago and like Sun's train started trending I mean god bless that girl. No, she was her job must be Exhausted it was her birthday. Yeah, she was like and they're like were you like is it bad? She's like no
Starting point is 00:19:53 I was lit. She was like cool. It was awesome. I'm shocked. She could talk on a podcast after that It was she you know put her in traction like like Kanye shout out shout out that lady Very fine lady. She ever wants to find out the height of part of my take and see how We're high we can take this podcast. We're sex bars only six of us Yeah, just light work and I'm gonna last 30 seconds, right? So Whatever six man Billy that would be you Definitely would be six actually
Starting point is 00:20:27 I would actually see I would be like if she would be down like maybe just Jerk off Billy and Jake at the same time just going and then we could finally see who the real alpha. Yeah I And then my cool throne talk about going skiing talk about you know part of my take podcast the team is is you guys People a WL is being able to bet on big cat and PFT. Yeah, and Jenga today two o'clock You can bet on them. We're playing it, too. You guys are it starts at two We're the last we're playing that like 245 three. Yep play bar stalled down on the app make your picks win $500 I've got great fingers. We're gonna slack them out in turn of Tittleman's crest
Starting point is 00:21:07 Back in the booth nailing it. Are you don't think I'm done. Okay, where can they find that game? I'm excited bar stool Downloaded in the app store. They're gonna get in the I think we're playing who we play Tommy smokes and Liz Okay, we're gonna mentally alpha game over what happened in the most recent play bar stool event the ping pong match The big match we're talking about a Sunday night between you and Jake. Uh cake beat me narrowly I heard it was different It was the rubber match and cake still has a broken pretty much broken ankle. He's a fighter I'm not gonna I'm not gonna sit here and make excuses Jake Jake fought through. He beat me. He beat me fair and square He's a fighter. He's a great match great broadcast more importantly. Yeah, what a sportsman
Starting point is 00:21:54 My hot seat is haters that don't believe in the power of football guys because Joe judge is Going full football guy with the New York Giants He's making the coaches run laps chasing Garrett is in the best shape of his life and he's doing like Oklahoma style drills He's doing one-on-one tackling drills at the goal line Just lining guys up having him hit each other full-on and it is giving Dave Gettleman a massive massive erection. Yes It's every every day this week has been a different Joe judge story of how he's you know changing the culture I just It's so funny watching Bella check disciples go somewhere and just be like I'm gonna be the Bella check
Starting point is 00:22:32 He's going full Bella. It's gonna hit. This is like if they win. You know what he's doing. They're fine But if they lose that's a quick way to become Romeo Cornell and like Josh McDonald's right He's an interim head coach and a head coach his office. So doing all the like the Dan Campbell tricks the Tony Spirano tricks he's gonna bury football eventually. He's gonna burn some game film He removed names from jerseys. Yep. That's right. That's another football guy thing He did he'll probably take the red jerseys off the quarterbacks. He's like you're a football player, too I can't wait till he slowly gives names back. Yeah, how does that work? How do you earn your name? I don't know you got to earn your life. It's a pinstripe situation to bring your mom to practice. Yeah with a birth certificate
Starting point is 00:23:10 I know the Cowboys always do that with like the stars on the sides of the helmet But yeah, Joe judges he is going full interim head coach right now And I I hope it works just because I want to see Joe judge in the league if he's doing hilarious stuff like this from day one I hope it works out, but history tells us it might not so when they asked them when they asked the New York media asked Joe judge about Taking names off practice Jersey Jersey. He said we should know who we are by the way they carry themselves It's important to know the person across from you by the way they move. There you go. Yes You need to know their movement. It's like it says unique as a fingerprint
Starting point is 00:23:46 I mean, honestly, I could spot Eli Manning his run his gate from anywhere So Daniel Jones probably isn't that far off They should actually make Daniel Jones earned the Brooks brother logo on the front of all his button-up shirts question Do we have video of the coaching staff running? I don't I didn't see any video of it Okay, because there's no chance that Brett Bielma ran. There's no chance Freddie kitchens ran. Wait, is he on the giant? Yes, both of them are on the giant staff Maybe he's just trying to get him in the shape. That's there's no dude Joe judge is gonna kill his whole fucking staff That it would be unreal like football during a pandemic and
Starting point is 00:24:24 You get no positive corona tests But Joe judge kills two of his coaches because a lapse But that is a great way to ensure that there are no minor mistakes on offense and defense for the linebackers cuz you know that Beelam is gonna run one. I can't think of two guys that would want to run less than Brett Bielma and Freddie kitchens. No, I can't Because they don't exist so there's Jason Garrett who's probably like behind. He's probably like keeping the pacing He's an overachieving asshole he went to Princeton He's been running laps forever instead of like the 13.1 or the 26.2 on the back of his car He's just got eight and eight in that little bubble. Yep. Who else do we have we've got?
Starting point is 00:25:02 Derek Dooley's on that staff to okay former Tennessee head coach Yep in his pants in his pants and his shower discipline. You remember that? Yep, he made he gave his he gave a workshop to the Tennessee volunteers on how to properly clean themselves in the shower Yes, because his team had a massive staff infection And then on my cool throne. I've got legs legs are on the cool throne NFL media salivating absolutely busting grapes over AJ Dylan and his tree trunks of coil legs Now it's at the point where like the first picture came out and everybody was like holy shit Look at this guy. He's thick with like seven C's and now it's to the point where all the photographers are just trying to get pictures
Starting point is 00:25:42 Of AJ. It's like remember Eddie Lacey. Yes, so it's like the reverse. Yes Lacey where they're all trying to get that one angle of this guy's muscle It's like if Eddie Lacey's stomach were legs, they're trying to capture that moment So expect to see a lot more of AJ Dylan's hamstrings and quads. Yes. All right my hot seat Let's talk about baseball. So my hot seat is the unwritten rules of baseball We had the entire story Fernando Tati's hitting a Fernando Tati's junior hitting a grand slam when the Padres were up 7 in the eighth inning on a 3-0 count and now
Starting point is 00:26:17 Was there anyone who was actually offended by this? I think only the managers I think only and then when Tati's had to do an apology people were like fuck this why do you apologize? But this is one of those moments where I we have to take a step back and be like show me the people who are fighting like it's probably just Aubrey Huff And like Peter Gammons. Yeah, Goose Gossage. He's definitely pissed off and like Peter Gammons and like that's probably it Well, I think I would agree with you But the fact that both managers were like that was bush league, you know that so since they're the ones that are calling I think Manny Machado was pissed off because he knew that he was gonna get hit. Yeah, that that I understand
Starting point is 00:26:57 teammate, but I just There's sportsmanship in professional sports shouldn't exist. Well, I'll just ban it I mean literally great when you're a pro Fuck that on the other hand It was kind of nice to wake up to a debate about the unwritten rules of baseball because all the other headlines that we've had in baseball have been like the cardinals went to Cardinals all you can all you can eat that restaurant in Las Vegas and everybody has coronavirus That's what we've been waking up to for the last three years. Yeah, in these pitchers act
Starting point is 00:27:26 Please act, you know goes out to an EDM concert and does an Instagram live from there Yeah, Clevenger pulled a Phoenix Suns with his teammates and got coronavirus from one Instagram model It was a lot of that going on. That's just hazing though on baseball. That's true Good point. Good point. But yeah, it's it's nice to see an unwritten rules debate It feels like it's been years since we've had one it is it feels really good to have unwritten rules talked about I just We're we need to find a stole third today, too That's like we got people remade. Yeah, and then the Rangers tweeted like Have fun with this one trolls
Starting point is 00:27:59 They lost today again to the Padres and then they did the thing on Twitter where you can't reply No one can reply. Got us. You can quote tweet it though. I I really do think we need to make We need to like teach one of those classes at like medial at Syracuse and be like We need to every like 10% of every Syracuse, Mizzou Northwestern Columbia journalist grad needs to be the torch like bearers for unwritten rule whoever graduates top in their class Yes, or bottom. That's whatever you decide, but we need because my problem is I can't argue Against unwritten rules if there's no one still earnestly arguing for them Mm-hmm. It feels futile to be like you like I can't believe people are mad about this
Starting point is 00:28:46 And then you look at Twitter. It's like no one's actually mad about this So we need a designated group like I would love for someone to start a list here are the unwritten rules People the Danny Knell scholarship award, right those people you go. These are the people the Doug Gottlieb Kids who who can't understand unwritten rules good I think it's mostly inside the game of baseball right now It's either people that used to play or people that are currently playing the game right get mad about it I'm actually curious if Gottlieb because like Gottlieb is he is really you know how there's um Beavers the beaver population is a sign of whether the ecosystem is doing well
Starting point is 00:29:23 Mm-hmm Doug Gottlieb's take is whether I can figure out if like we are on the right path as a society Because if he's got the terrible take you're like, okay, we're doing something right Yes, so I wonder if he was if he's even on the side of Tate's then we're fucked We are but I I'm pretty sure that he would be because he just puts his finger up in the wind He's like which ways everybody else blow nobody still fucks. I'm over there. How fucks it up. I'm over there I yeah, I mean if Doug Gottlieb starts to agree with me about things and I think it's on me to then have to Disagree with Doug Gottlieb. Yeah. Yes, you had a look at the man in the mirror Okay, so I'm looking nope. He didn't even talk about it damn
Starting point is 00:30:03 He's doing the baldy breakdowns for basketball now. Oh, that's nice. Yeah, all right My cool throne is big 10 football because big 10 football is back totally.

Okay, and then he said he has a source a High place source one source. Okay, and then I saw somebody else today The Kevin Warren the big 10 commissioner is 75% chance. He resides. It's Kevin Warren doesn't have he doesn't know what he's gonna do
Starting point is 00:30:47 There's been all sorts of reports have come out in the last like day or two They just say there was no vote that was put up Kevin Warren just kind of like kind of figured out that they could be sued if he didn't cancer reason Right, maybe and then he decided to I think just if enough people go viral then that'll convince them to put the season back on I know actually ironically would also convince them to cancel right right I know deep down that it's not gonna happen, but I can dream you never know one person has a source It's not over till it's over.

Starting point is 00:35:56 Doesn't treat you like a stepchild. Yeah, I like that So you also are Hall of Famer I should have mentioned that and a Super Bowl winner and I we have a lot of stuff We want to talk to you, but I actually wanted to start there because I saw That your jerseys up for auction or something from the Super Bowl game, but I don't think that's your jersey tell what's going on I saw that too that that's not the jersey that that I have hanging downstairs in my gym that's not the jersey that I remember wearing at the game and
Starting point is 00:36:28 You know, it's that was the last game I ever played and I kind of knew if we were gonna win I was gonna retire anyway. That's the Super Bowl. So I Just knew after that game. I was gonna keep everything. I kept everything except for the shoulder pads That's the only thing I didn't keep so I packed everything in a bag once we came off the field Stinkies that nasty subbed it into my helmet and into a duffel bag and gave it to my buddy Ian Smith And the jerseys hanging downstairs and the rest of it. I have the rest of the jersey. I have my glove my wrist brace My shoes I got everything. So when I saw that I was a little surprised too man Oh, yeah, yeah, how does that work? Is there like a backup jersey that you have in case yours gets torn during the game?
Starting point is 00:37:08 Could that be it? I mean, I don't know. We always have backups We always have backup jerseys, but that the journey I had is the one I wore the end I have the one I wore the entire game and Then when I got back to New Jersey, I take it out the bag The whole thing is wet and still soaking wet and nasty and had to let it air out. I didn't wash it I didn't want to have it washed because if you wash it Pretty much washed away the game in my opinion. It looks just like every other journey you've ever worn, right? so um, the thing still has the
Starting point is 00:37:37 Stains on it from dirt and Gatorade and and the stench if you were to take it out of the frame Okay, so Everyone should know that if you see an auction with the jersey the Michael Strayhand more in the Super Bowl It's not real. He has it and he's not selling it. So Aronius on all accounts. Yeah, I mean, why would I sell that? I mean, I don't need to sell it I don't need the money To me that was the epitome in the the the best thing that ever happened in my career was winning that Super Bowl That was that was better than Pro Bowls and and you know in all that stuff because that was something
Starting point is 00:38:11 I had the chance to do with the guys and yeah when I saw it was surprised man So, you know, I was like, okay, maybe I thought for a second. Maybe I was going crazy. So I said, okay Let me go. Let me go Right there on my shoes Okay Maybe I forgot something else then I Said man, I've got my my gloves Love right here. It is not like it's not fair too because when you see that story
Starting point is 00:38:38 My initial thought was like, oh is Michael Strayhand having tough times. He's got to sell that jersey and it's not a bullshit Yeah, here's my wrist. Here's my wrist brace and see how it's broken right there, but that's my wrist brace Okay, do you have your cup? Can we buy your cup off you? No, it's all the pants You just you just keep these like hanging out around your house. They're not like in a bag or a frame I keep this stuff like I keep I have a I have a storage unit where I keep it here's my helmet still in plastic Whoa, okay. Nice So but I keep this stuff like this, you know, to be honest with you if you come to my house
Starting point is 00:39:13 In my gym is the only place I have any football memorabilia So if you go if you if you come to the gym, you go downstairs. I have my my superbowl jersey I have two game worn um Probowl jerseys and one that's a replica jersey And then I have like a man cave. I have everything else because I never was a guy who like football I did it. I loved it But I didn't want to like freeze my mind that people walking the house and the only thing they see is oh, he's football
Starting point is 00:39:42 Like I'm bigger more than that like I'm a human being with a lot more interest So I didn't want to like almost stifle my thinking to think that football the only thing that I could do when I walk Into my own house and that's all I see so I've always kind of separated the two So I keep this stuff stored away and I really don't don't don't look at it that much except for my jersey Which is in the gym and that's here at the house because that was the most special piece Of um a memorabilia that I have and I'm not a big collector of a lot of things But that I definitely wanted to keep your america's sweetheart So let's talk about that game real quick because obviously one of the most famous games in nfl history
Starting point is 00:40:16 I'd say, you know, the Patriots going for a perfect 19 and 0 at what point in the game Did you say to yourself and and the guys on the defensive line like this is working like we're They're not looking like they've looked the last, you know, 18 weeks Well, I think I'm not going to say they weren't looking like they looked I think we weren't looking like they expected us to look And I would I would say after the first two defensive series We were hitting we were hitting tom brady so many times and so fast within the first two series
Starting point is 00:40:51 We thought I thought okay. This is kind of a joke like they're playing with us They're letting us get to him so fast that they can dump a little screen over our head or they can do something like that In and then you started to realize that the first two series No, we are just playing a lot faster than they are on offense right now And we just needed to keep it close. It's just like anything. I can boxy match or anything You keep it close. You always got a chance for a knockout and for us. Thank goodness. Um We had a chance for the knockout and we did it. Yeah Yeah, we had uh gotham chopper on the show a couple weeks ago
Starting point is 00:41:22 He's the the documentary and he said that every time He's been around tom brady and you at the same time the very the very first thing that you do is you bring up that game to him You won't let it go And chahel with tom tom got six of them so he could he could take it for one But I think that would help hurts him the most because it was a perfect season Yeah, so yeah, he's quite told me that and you know what? I'm like one and one in super bowls He's like six out of nine or whatever To be at the superbowl nine times in his career and anybody's career is insane
Starting point is 00:41:55 But yeah, so gotham is a the patris fan, right? So he's upset tom's upset. I'm surprised we're business partners, but I'll take whatever I can get but um Hey, I'm happy with my one man. I'm not getting greedy. I'll take it Looking back a couple weeks before that game the famous tom cofflin red face game In green bay. Did you think that coach cofflin was gonna die? I thought he had but you know my mom called me my mom never called me about anything like that I mean when I was a kid if you got hurt my mom would basically say rub some dirt on it get up If I ever got hurt at the pro, I'd never laid on the field
Starting point is 00:42:33 I always made it out off the field and if I had to go to the to the locker room I would at least go in the tunnel and then collapse like don't collapse on the field could mama wasn't playing that She called me and said is he okay? Because he looked like your shirt. I mean red I'm surprised did not have a Frostbite and we had some guys who did because that was ridiculous. So what do they do when it's that cold, man? They always tell you don't go outside make sure you don't put your animal out put your car in the garage
Starting point is 00:43:04 And here they're like, oh football players go play entertain. Yeah, it was crazy insane. Yeah um, are you Is elie definitely a surefire uh first ballad hall famer in your eyes? I mean you're biased But no, I think in it. I think elie the hall of famer is the first ballad. I don't know But I think it's your fire hall of famer without a doubt I think just the two superbowl wins and and the clutch play that he had just a career that he had without missing That he had without missing games and all those things definitely in my opinion makes them a hall of famer First ballad that's up to so many other people's opinions
Starting point is 00:43:42 That other than my god, I don't vote. Yeah, what about uh, what about the new coach the Giants have joe judge He sounds like he's starting to do he's going down that that dangerous path Where all the former patriots assistant coaches they try to do this They try to be real hard asses in their first year like Matt patricio telling reporters to like sit up with better posture You know doing all these like weird football guy things trying to replicate the system that worked in new england How can somebody come in from like outside of your culture and implement that without the players just being like Fuck you, you know, like I'm I'm a grown man. I'm an adult. I'm a professional
Starting point is 00:44:16 I don't need to be right, you know running laps because I jumped off sides day one of training camp I'll be honest with you. I'm the same way the coffin when he first came man He was a hard ass and we gave him the middle finger just like you just did like dude. What are you doing? Like we've been here with vets. We don't need all this this this crap that you're doing and I think I think judge I saw the day he had the coaches running with yeah with I'm like man my coach your coach would be killing you if you screwed it up It screwed him up. Have you seen the way these coaches look they're not running shape. Yeah
Starting point is 00:44:50 So if he's got any coaches out here running man, which I think is going to change a lot of stuff I've seen so many coaches especially bella check x coaches Who come and try to be bella check? I think if this is really what joe jugger is then players will buy into it, but more than anything a player Bill bella check could be as hard ass as he wants But at the end of the day the players know that he cares about them And that's what it boils down to coughlin when he came in it was like we were we were like Little pieces to be put here and there. We didn't have any connection with him as a human being
Starting point is 00:45:22 But the second we connected with him and we realized he saw us as people Our team got better and our team started to win So I don't think there's there's any Mistaking that having a connection a human connection with your team is what helped you win And so if he has that he had the shot if he doesn't I don't care How many laps you run how good bad nice or not nice you are you just won't win What about um like how did that work out with with coughlin? How did he show you that he was actually human? He like lets you use the bathroom once per day or you know
Starting point is 00:45:51 Usually being like 10 minutes early. Yeah, he's like don't worry. That's cool. That's where it happened with me Yeah Supposed to be five minutes early And we had this whole big debate because he tried to find some guys who were like seven minutes early Because he had but he had already closed the door to the rooms He's like that's like that's like like coach you saw those guys standing out there Then you did that on purpose And I think that that was when he kind of lost a lot of
Starting point is 00:46:14 Some respect from the team and the guys were like man, this guy's crazy I was the designated go talk to coughlin guy whenever anybody had a problem because I was the oldest guy there like year 14 or 13 12 13 14 where I was kind of like I don't give a damn phase And I would talk to him. He would just dismiss it. Yeah, I hear you. I hear you. I hear you And he we had an agreement that it was five minutes early But if you were in within that five minute time frame, you got you talked to you He didn't find you and I came in three minutes early to a meeting And I got a letter. Yeah, and I got a letter on my stool for 500 bucks
Starting point is 00:46:53 Now wasn't the $500 It's like, okay 500 bucks It was the principal and the fact that me and I just had this conversation after I was dealing with the other guys who got fine uh-huh And we we were going through our practice bubble because it's cold outside and he and I We started out in a nice cordial conversation like a coach, you know, I just got this letter on my stool. He's like, yeah I said I said I was late and I got fine for you. So, yeah I was like the coach. I wasn't late and then it just he just kept escalating and I'm trying to be you know, nice guy
Starting point is 00:47:25 Michael But then when he said well next time don't cut it so close. It could have been more That's when I went full Football Michael. Uh-huh. Well, John Runyon Eric Williams. I don't care about nobody I'm gonna hurt you guy And I just looked at him man, and I let him have it. I I just let him have it I I'm not gonna say what I said, but put it this way next time. I'm late Eff it
Starting point is 00:47:52 I come in here when I want to I'll stop and run errand to get I hop and then I'll come in here with that I want to I'm gonna be late. You gonna find me. I'll do it. I want to do yeah And and he looked at me and he goes you can't talk to me like that and I said yes, I can I said if you don't respect me I'm not gonna respect you and um He was still in shock. I can he still sense some other things. I said, well, you know, I always tell you
Starting point is 00:48:16 What's going on? And I'm always trying to tell you what the players are coming to me for And then when I say it you just say I hear you. I hear you. I say you're dismissing me. Do you think I'm stupid? You're just dismissing me. But listen to this you're losing this team. Do you hear that and I walked away from And ever since that conversation I've been like that. That's great. I think I think he realized like I can't keep just beating guys down finding finding you for wearing your socks. Your socks aren't high enough, right? I'm at practice, dude. You think I care if I have on a gray sleeve or a blue sleeve They're both in my locker because they come with the giant issue equipment. I'm not worried about what colors I'm wearing
Starting point is 00:48:55 Not a game we're in football team. We're gonna have to play it was just crazy, man But once we got on track guys loved it. Yeah Really went to battle for the that's interesting because I think a lot of coaches get right to that point that like pointing the The road the fork in the road. It's like which way am I going to go here? especially with pro football because you guys In college you can kind of get away with it because you get a turnover of people of players But in pro it's a little different. So cobbled after that was he was he a little bit nicer? Or was it just he listened to you more? I think both
Starting point is 00:49:31 I think both he was he was nicer in a sense that you felt like he actually had concern and um And he actually would try to come around and tell jokes and stuff and try to be funny Which was so out of character. I would love to hear a time cobbled joke. Even if he's not funny It's funny because he's trying right Do you remember he was around like are we supposed to laugh or is he trying to be funny? It was it was a little uncomfortable for a while until you realized Okay, he's really trying to show us his personality And I think that guys guys once they saw that guys bought into it and I used to tell guys all the time
Starting point is 00:50:06 You know when I used to go but and I had to butt heads with him and I had to realize to my I realized Okay, either I got to be a part of the problem. I'm gonna be a part of the problem or I'm gonna be a part of the solution Which one do I want to be my career is winded down? Once we get to the to meet of our disagreements at the center of it all is we both want to win It's really we've got that the same goals just kind of going about in a different way and I said I want to be part of the solution so I thought if I buy in with some of his stuff and he eased up on some of his other stuff We could meet in the middle and guys are gonna follow and guys did man and I'm thankful for it
Starting point is 00:50:40 So you mentioned going off on coffin there and I it reminded me we you know, you're very very good friend Probably I can say best friend jade glazer has been a friend of ours for a few years He's been on our show a bunch of times He I think he told us once that of all the people that he's been around You have the switch where when you flip it you can just go Crazy mode you're the nicest guy in the world, but you have that like all right now It's a football game like I'm gonna I'm gonna destroy you kind of feel to it Do you ever think about that when you're like
Starting point is 00:51:13 You know on tv in front of like a bunch of moms in america watching you in the morning in the back of your head You're like remember that football switch that I have like Have you ever go back in in the back of your brain and think about that switch? I mean the switch is there. I mean a the switch is always there. I just don't need it now If I if I flipped it on tv, I probably scare a lot of people Yeah, but but for football it's like it was literally It was it's survival And that's what people a lot of people look at it's a game. Okay big guys run around. I hit each other
Starting point is 00:51:49 They do all these things. Okay. That's great. No for me. It was survival and to me. It was respect I didn't care about anything. I I didn't care about you know Probold and all that stuff were gonna come If I went out there and played for respect and I played for respect I've never played the cheap the game. I wasn't playing of course you're playing for to make a living But it wasn't as if okay. I gotta go ahead and make money because that's a certain point That's not enough to continue to play for me. It was about respect So when I look at a guy who's 350 pounds and I'm at the you know weighing 200 and my heavy is 75
Starting point is 00:52:24 That's three years of my career 240 something 250. I gotta survive. It's me or you when they turn it on to take tomorrow They ain't gonna see me getting laid out. They don't see me getting run over. They're not gonna see And I just say hey, it's me or you and it's gonna be you my will to win It's greater than your will to keep me from winning and um, that was a switch But we can have this conversation. We can laugh and yeah, you know say defense I grab a helmet. I'll put it on and turn like that. Well, well, all right so it's about respect and uh, you have to switch still so would you flip the switch if someone said Hey, Michael, remember that time you paid Brett farb to take a dive so you could get the sack record
Starting point is 00:53:01 You don't need to flip the flip the switch on that 22 and a half, baby. If you don't like it, go break How much did you pay him though? Seriously, uh, please, you know, I don't have enough money to pay Brett farb for anything How about that? But that's what kills me. That's what's so funny about people everybody. Oh that sack went Brett farb if they only knew I can give a rats ass about Sack record They mean anything records are meant to be broken. The only record I cared about when it came to sacks Already had that's lt single season record with the giants. Yeah, but but but but but they didn't count sacks when lt was a rookie
Starting point is 00:53:38 No, senior single season Do you know what he did when he was a rookie? He could have 30 sacks. You don't know that sacks is he didn't get 20 some sacks Did you go watch 80 you watch the film? I watched the film He didn't get 20 something sacks deacon jones told me one year. He had like 80 sacks. I'm like No way you had If I played back in the day, I would I would make up stats all the time for some of my games that they didn't keep Yeah, he can decrease my man I mean you talk about somebody took care of me as a young player resting piece of my man deacon jones
Starting point is 00:54:10 But deacon's like i'm a bridge exactly. I had 80 sacks in one year. I'm like deacon nobody had 80 And it was funny because I was talking to larnes. I was at a golf tournament with larnes last year And we're talking and he's going on about sacks. You're gonna decide you got the john sack record. That's my record And I said lt people they didn't count they didn't count sacks. I said, who's fault is that? It's not my fault. I said I broke the number of that was there. He go. Well, you know, I missed higher mini games That wasn't my fault you took drugs
Starting point is 00:54:43 You Yeah And he even had to laugh at that man. He's that dude. I love him because it's tough for the competitor And as intimidating as he was and still can be Um He always was great to his teammate. Yeah great me and I was standing behind him every day And then like the dummy for practice squad to him always took care of me give you the shirt off his back I'm always wanted the best and and I love about those teams between lt
Starting point is 00:55:16 I play a lot of golf with oj anderson. Harry Carson is my man. I mean these guys Took care of me when they did have to because I was that new generation that usually doesn't listen to any of the older guys But they those guys took care of me. I love them. Okay. So speaking of a former teammate, um, do you still not talk to tiki? Oh, yeah, I talk to tiki. Okay, but you have you won that So that the famous you you had a contract dispute and tiki did the thing that you're not supposed to do and try to You know talked out of turn you guys had it out I just want to say I mean tiki has a good career going But you basically got the career that tiki wanted and also won a super bowl
Starting point is 00:55:56 I mean tiki had a tiki had a tv career. Yeah But you're my your america sweetheart. That's very nice. You're very nice You know, but my career is completely different from his because my my my route to where I was going was completely different First of all, I played football and won a super bowl That helps he retired a year before I think it helped that I was able to go into the entertainment side of television Not straight to the news I was able to actually do the football side of it on a fun show and not a show that was that structured I think at cbs was at that time and I never looked at it like, um
Starting point is 00:56:32 For me, I think when tiki came out, he wanted to make a splash So he talked about cough and he talked about elie He did a lot of things that I personally wouldn't have done because at the end of the day I'm not going to say something About the guy that I just went on the field and played with for like for to for the network or for rating or anything like that But I think at that time there's probably a lot of pressure on him to do that And I and I but i'm i'm friends with him now definitely good friends with him now You know let bygones be bygones at the end of the day. I got my money
Starting point is 00:57:04 That's true That was my whole thing was about just you just don't talk about somebody else's financial But it's not you're wrong without completely understanding. Just don't do it. Yeah, I I think What you've done is like there are a lot of people that currently play right now who say I want to be The next michael strahan when I retire Not realizing that like not everybody can do what you do I feel like you've got a pretty diverse skill set going on like when grok retired You know he tried to do uh fox. He was in the media for a little bit
Starting point is 00:57:33 I think he worked with you on some of the thursday night stuff Do you have any advice for these guys being like hey, here's how you can become the most liked person in america You know what man? I um First of all, you got to enjoy it You got to enjoy it. You you you have to you have to work at it and everyone sees now and goes Oh, michael's doing this michael's doing that they didn't see when I'm getting turned down for things when I couldn't get called back from people when I'm um
Starting point is 00:58:02 Hosting events and doing things for nothing just to get the experience of doing it for messing up when I'm messing up And and you know all these they just didn't people just didn't see that now they they think oh He just showed up on tv a long way from showing up I started doing things on tv when I was with the giants just because they'd asked me and I would do it And I thought that was fun. Let me do it again. I never thought about it being a career But now it's a career, but for all these guys who are out there playing now My biggest advice play as long as you can Play as hard as you can
Starting point is 00:58:36 Make the most that you can put it away and make that your primary job. Don't start trying to be 20 other people because your primary job right now It's going to get you to the the ends and to the business is football Don't lose focus of your primary for something that is secondary and can wait I I like your point though about you know not saying no to things and going out and doing a bunch of different things Because I think that that happens a lot in the media industry where you see the finished product And you don't realize like oh, he's he's actually been putting in reps everywhere forever You know what's so crazy the one the first thing that ever did I think back to it now was pretty dangerous
Starting point is 00:59:16 Out of the there used to be an electronics company called tops here in New Jersey and every monday night I used to go to a A winning they draw a lot or I go to the winner's house And watch money night football with them and whoever they invited with a foot long sandwich that felt like fed like 20 people In some drinks. So here I am just pulling up at strangers houses And I was watching football and and so you have to learn how to talk to people Right. You have to learn to get along with people. You have to learn how to decipher and figure out a room real quick So I thought about that. I'm like that was really stupid
Starting point is 00:59:53 But now I look at it and go that really helped me in my career When I first started with best of damn sports show I used to sit in front of a camera like this, but I didn't have a monitor I couldn't see everybody on the other end But I had to be animated and and Responsive to their conversation It could be a part of it. So all those things that at the time I was doing I was just doing it because I really Know have now come into play in what I do now
Starting point is 01:00:17 But it's a lot of work and everything the learning experience and failure the learning experience Don't get discouraged. You just got to keep pushing forward and and and and but you know I just want athletes to know too to be honest with you I mean tv is only a part of what I do I mean, we had a production company. We produce game shows tv shows movies We have the talent management company. We have clothing companies Have the business with gotham and tom as well that production company. So Football and and tv are only served several small aspects of what you can do with your life
Starting point is 01:00:50 There are just so many more things out there that this could lead to if you play your cards, right? So you you have a million jobs. You're one of the hardest working guys out there Uh, I was actually talking to our new co-worker dion sanders prime time. Don't know if you ever heard of him He said you're scared to do a podcast with him I'm not scared to do a podcast with dion. I told dion. He has to loosen up His pants in the crotch area before I do a podcast with him And I could hear the screen the screaming from his um nether regions He does like to tight fit. He's gone to euro fit
Starting point is 01:01:28 Speaking of that He's always talking he called my either you wearing that wane brady suit. I got this nice suit on He's got the euro fit. That's true. So on the other end of the spectrum Um, I'm just this just popped in my head But do you uh have like a fond feeling of the nfl sunday show? Coming to a close when terry bradshaw like untux his shirt and he looks like a dude has been sitting at a bar for Last seven hours. You're like, all right time to go home terry Yeah, amen. That's that's life for everybody at home. We should be in a dressing room with him when he got the tiny whiteies on
Starting point is 01:02:03 That that right there the site to behold america. Trust me. Yeah, but you know did that show man I i'm i'm so thankful for the show It is the best thing in the world so much fun. The guys are amazing And you don't realize there is no age difference when we're on the show There is none jimmy's not 70 something and i'm not the youngest one there. Let me just let them be known but It's no age difference. We are like Guys and kids and boys who love the sports and we love each other
Starting point is 01:02:34 And there is so much support and love there for everything that we do there and away from there And I can't think of a better better brothers, you know, we're not even co-workers. We're brothers And the group texts that we're on all these things There's not like we just show up and do a show on sunday and we don't communicate Man, we talk to each other all the time. I talk to them more than I just about talk to anybody else in my life Who's the glue guy? The glue who holds it out all together. Who's the glue guy of that group? um
Starting point is 01:03:02 Kurt menafee, okay, he is the like he's he's if you need a random fact and or Or something you got to ask her he knows the answer to everything but he is the guy that I think everybody Knows is always together and got his stuff together. You can ask anything too and he's gonna come through for you What's terry like on the on the group thread? What's his text game like? I'm just like what you and his talking's like on sunday In text, yeah, and then the the greatest thing is when jimmy figured out voice notes and emojis I can imagine. Yeah. Oh man. Yeah, but I mean, I would love to see where terry's speech attacks translates to that can pick up on that
Starting point is 01:03:46 That louisie way that translator's having a hard time. Yeah What how do you how do you manage your schedule? Like just this is a stupid question, but like how do you do it? Sleep you got to learn when to sleep That's that be honest with you. That's that was the hardest part when you're doing the news. I'm up every morning. Yeah, what time you get up? I'm up at like five. Okay gross But it's like it's not like I'm up at five have some coffee. Hey, I'll do no. I'm up and I gotta be going Like I gotta be thinking I gotta be reading. I gotta know what's coming on
Starting point is 01:04:19 I'm coming up And there is no oh, give me a cup of coffee. Close my office door. Let me relax and get into the day No, you got to be on it And so with that I the hardest part is being disciplined enough to go to sleep Which now I'm fine with it But at that and when I first started that was tough, man You're just trying to burn both ends of the candle that will wear you out So now get to bed early. I do that and after that I have meetings and before kovat. It was crazy
Starting point is 01:04:46 I'm constantly running Now this has slowed it down a little bit and now I just try to I think this has shown me that just I need to Break every once in a while So I try to put everything I can on a day or two the week and then have the other days when I'm just off from GMA that I had a day to myself so I can go play golf or do nothing Sounds exhausting. It sounds really really tiring to wait just I mean forget about the rest of it Just waking up before eight o'clock every morning seems just awful to me. What time you guys get up It depends on the day. Well, we work. I have a son so I get up at seven
Starting point is 01:05:17 Sometimes we're here until like, you know, two o'clock in the morning typically wake up at like eight, maybe nine Yeah, that's it. It depends on really what what time of year it is actually I wake up and get mad because I have a kid and no one else does so like I wake up and I'm like Fuck everyone's definitely still sleeping. Fuck this. Oh, yeah, sometimes I'll wake up at like 11 30 I'll text the group. I'll be like, hey guys I just woke up to college game that anyone else see this big cats like fuck you Fuck That's all right. They're all gonna die alone. I'm gonna have a son who loves me forever. I've got a dog
Starting point is 01:05:51 And he's gonna live forever. So that's good too. Uh Got a question about your buddy j. So we've we've we've talked about much on j Yeah, we've talked we've shared a lot of stories with j He always likes to talk about how he's a great fighter. He's a big MMA guy He can beat anybody up, etc, etc, etc If do you think that j could could beat you up if you were asleep So j gets like maybe one good punch in before you wake up You have to realize the fight environment you're in and then you can just go wild on them. Oh
Starting point is 01:06:23 Oh I'll be honest with you. I used to be able to whip j pretty handedly j's tough man Like j j went from like shaking your hand to greet you to giving you a leg kick. That was his way of saying hello What the hell are you doing? Hell's wrong with you. Yeah, but j I mean if he if he puts me in my sleep and woke me up Oh, he's gonna take a beating because that's what they call waking up hot and heavy as my dad used to say You catch me like that. I'm gonna I'm gonna work to whip you. I may whip you unconsciously
Starting point is 01:06:51 But I'm gonna whip you but j is not a pushover anymore Right. He's he's he's tough and I watch him him train and I've been in there with him training. He's trained me He actually knows what he's doing. I've known j so long that I'm surprised. He actually even had the job So I'm just like dude It's really the maid that has been made stuff in the and what he's built over there and unbreakable with the team Me and the people that he's built it with I'm proud of j and and the thing I'm most proud about with j To be honest with you is mvp. Yes. Yes
Starting point is 01:07:22 program this guy is You know j back in the day could be selfish And I said j mvp. You are the Most unselfish selfish person I've ever met. Yeah, that's fine. Yeah when I see that But what he does with that program man is the thing I'm most proud of him about outside of him building a career That he's built from nothing because when I was there when I was there when j was struggling
Starting point is 01:07:49 I'm offering to help him pay his rent. He's like, nope Won't take it. So he's he's obviously talked about how you have helped his career Uh, do you think he's helped your career because in talking about like why everyone loves michael strayhan? I think maybe part of it is You walk around all the time with like a short psycho guy Who everyone's like dude just chill out and then you comparatively like that guy's so nice Everybody thinks i'm the bodyguard. He's the bodyguard Jay and j helped me on and off the field on the field. He helped me by lying to me
Starting point is 01:08:24 Because every time we would get you get ready for a game. He'd go. Oh my god. Hey. Hey this guy. Hey The media got they were telling me you're talking about you're not nothing strayhan ain't anything strayhan ain't gonna do Now i'm gonna do this to strayhan. I'm gonna do that. I used to get in the game and look at the guy I said, oh, I'm not. Oh, I'm not this. I'm not that you about to see I'm about to whip you, you know Didn't eventually one guy was like, what are you talking about? And I think in Lonnie Palayley or somebody with the eagles who used to play the giants with me And he said all right the him strayhan up in practice and now i'm with the eagles I'm gonna shut them down after the game. I'm like, yeah, yeah, and Ron is like, what are you talking about? I said j
Starting point is 01:09:01 He'd say anything like he goes Well, no, he actually didn't and neither did the last seven guys But he got me ready to play and I'll never forget being at fox the way he helped me what I with tv Is j would come in and say, okay, what are you gonna say today? And I'm like, I don't I figured out He's like, no, what are you gonna say? He would help me craft my notes and then he would make me say it to him As if I'm on air, which is uncomfortable when you're sitting there with your friends acting like well There you know, I'm like, you know say it like you're gonna see it on air And then he would say take that out punctuate this get to the point tell experiences that you have
Starting point is 01:09:39 And other people don't have you can say the regular things that everybody else says but you've been in a locker room You know what the mentality is you've been in there when the coach is yelling at half time Or you've been at this thrill of victory share that with people. That's what they don't experience So jay has helped me in more ways than I can say In broadcasting. All right. He is he's been a you know, he's been a good one to keep around Yeah, yeah, did you go to that party with him at still uh, Sylvester Stallone's house? Yeah, man. I was there. Yeah We heard about that. That was the name drop city. Yes. He was incredible there. Yes Yeah, I tell you man. I don't know how the little guy does it. He offends everybody and then they take him in
Starting point is 01:10:18 Yeah, he offended us when he said he had the biggest news ever and then it was like the ram's backup center got coronavirus But we still love him Yeah, I mean when he did that, I think he was he was so mad because I think people are blowing up his Twitter and instagram thing man I say, oh jay to be honest with you. I don't even know who the guy is. Yeah, you kind of miss that one. That's okay We all at the same time get them all out the park It also like speaks to the weight of whenever jay whenever he tweets out news. It's always the biggest news It's always out of nowhere. So when he says he has a story people like odal beckham's getting traded again
Starting point is 01:10:54 You know something to that magnitude And then it ended up being what it was and then he had to defend it It was the fallout was was very funny But uh, yeah, it's actually like a problem of his own design because he's been so good at his job Yeah, and you're right He does such big news that when he said that because he never really said that before and I'm like But the thing is I'll give it jay. He won't tell me he won't tell he will not tell you ahead of time And if you're a son, he will not tell you who said anything. I don't know where he got the spy gate tape from
Starting point is 01:11:22 I've been the guy's best friend for 27 years now We'll not give up his sources And that's one thing he has evolved So when he says I got some big news all the other big news he's had You think it's going to be huge and not saying diminishing that no guy had corona But it wasn't the biggest let's say sports story we expect from jay and we build it up in our Yeah, it's more our fault because we all build it up in our heads. Um, all right I had one last question michael
Starting point is 01:11:49 So this is a zip recruiter question with a seamless experience from start to finish just like this question zip recruiter takes carry recruiting Right now you can try zip recruiter for free at zip recruiter dot com slash take Um, so you uh, you went to a small college hall of fame career If you were playing right now With all the corona virus and everything that's going on Where do you land with like college football trying to have a season and I would imagine someone like yourself Who had to prove it at you know, like a small college and then get a chance in the nfl
Starting point is 01:12:24 And then take that chance and kick ass through it Like you don't get many opportunities if you're missing like your senior year at a small college. Where do you land on that? Ah, that's tough man I just think if they had the right protocols, then of course I would love to play football I think that's what it comes down to is How do you protect? How do you protect the safety of the players and And and the coaches and and everyone else who's associated with the program because you got to remember these players They're like all the players that young they'll get over it
Starting point is 01:12:53 Everybody's affected differently because there have been some young players who haven't gotten over some young Athletes who've had heart conditions and other things that they're finding out that the virus can do So for me, it would be a matter of how do you Try to keep it as clean and virus free as possible But it's hard when you're on a college campus As we see some of these kids going back to school now having parties and the first time you're away from home And you're like, hey, mom and dad can't tell me anything. I'm getting out. Yeah, then you get around people So you just it would be very hard pressed
Starting point is 01:13:24 um For me not to play Especially if they could say there's these are the ways that we're trying to protect you. Yeah, okay Yeah, I feel like that's where a lot of america's right now. There's still a lot of we don't know, right? Yeah, but then I do hate though. I hate when people like oh, they just play football I'm like yeah, because that's not your kid. You want to be entertained. Yeah on a Saturday You know, I saw you cared about having college football You're not really cared about the health of these guys because if you did when a guy blew his knee out
Starting point is 01:13:50 You can care about no, they just put another one in there and you keep moving right so To me it's about you really protecting the health of these young players and and even the health of the players in the nfl Because you see basketball is working a baseball has some hiccups hockey is working And but you can't put the nfl players in the bubble. I mean that that would be is absolutely Insane, right? So I will see how this is how it's going to shake out in college We'll see how it's going to shake out in the pros, but um, I think it's going to be some challenge Yeah, where do you see it going at the professional level because in my opinion since they're not doing a true bubble It's just it's not if it's when it's a matter of time until like a team has an outbreak
Starting point is 01:14:27 Like we've seen in baseball Then like two teams have an outbreak and then you know, then we've got weeks that are shut down The schedule gets all messed up and then the whole thing kind of crumbles at its base Like is there any way that you can think of outside of instituting like a mandatory? Like three city bubble or something to that nature I don't think you can do that too many too many players too many um families too many of all that stuff I think that with the nfl you do have a week between games So I think that that may give you a little leeway if i'm a guy who was on the bubble or I was in a camp
Starting point is 01:15:00 I stay in shape and um in some of these games you may see that the backup center of The backup behind the backup starting who knows but I think the biggest effect will be if it happens When you get a major quarterback or player or a major coach Who who gets it and like Doug Peterson already had it to um To see how that affects the team. I think once we see that that that may change some opinions Uh, I actually have one last thing I actually thinking through everything that you've done hall of fame
Starting point is 01:15:36 Superbowl america's sweetheart tolerates j. Glazer um I think your number one legacy might be when dumb football fans like ourselves and every like Idiot fan sitting at a bar across the country Decides that they've figured out how to play defensive football by just saying just get pressure with the front four That's you guys like that's like when they do like keys to the game hit tom brady. It's like yeah, that's pretty fucking easy What but you that's what they're talking about. They're like you just got a pressure starts up front
Starting point is 01:16:10 Like you just gotta do you gotta win go win a lot of scrimmage the giants did it Yeah, trust me. It's not that easy. I love that man You're the first person in my life who's ever said that it is not Yeah, get present with the front four. That's what they got to do. I've even been accused of saying that myself on fox If it's hard It's four on five basically so somebody's gonna have to win a double team You can't have any gap for the quarterback to step up Your outside guys really got to you know come from the out is like be tight. It's very coordinated. Yeah
Starting point is 01:16:43 I'm with four guys and you have to have four Unselfish guys out there and to be honest with you nowadays. You have to have a rotation Because it's true. I get tired. You have to have a good rotation with backups who are just as good It could start in other places that just happen to be back us because on your team. They're like One and one a yeah, you know So It was we found that formula with the giant thing good and found it a few times But it's it's hard and that's why I think the second highest paid position in football is the defensive end
Starting point is 01:17:16 Yeah behind the quarterback because that's the only guy on the defensive side of the ball who can disrupt the quarterback in so many ways So Yeah, get present with the front And then if you're trying if you're trying to win offensively, you just gotta you got to protect the quarterback Well, it's not that hard. I've established the run Right established the run get pressure with the front four and no mistakes on special teams And I tell you what man when you're rolling like we were rolling Oh, it's no better feeling than knowing
Starting point is 01:17:42 Lining up four guys You can put six or seven We're gonna whip you it doesn't matter And you look at the guy across from you and you look him in the eye And you can tell he doesn't want to be there because he's confused because he knows you can run around him You can run underneath them or you can run over him That is the absolute best feeling because you can see the desire of him and So leave a guy through his eyeballs
Starting point is 01:18:04 I like yeah Also, just thank you for beating the patriots that season because the Shit that america would have to deal with with 19 and 0 patriots fans like Patriots fans in massachusetts like probably 40 percent of the population would have 19 and 0 tattooed somewhere on their face or neck Like tukashi 6 9 it would be everywhere. So thank you For not making america deal with that and we'll finish here The jersey that's off for sale is not correct Too gazy michael strahan has the real jersey. Do not do not bid on that auction
Starting point is 01:18:36 Someone is screwing with him. We are here to set the record straight michael strahan. Thank you so much, man We really appreciate it. All right. Thank you, man.

You don't get the anxiety. You don't have the paranoia. You don't have the mental fogginess What you do have is you feel more active and outgoing with increased confidence And almost none of the anxiousness and paranoia that you get with delta nine again. It's federally legal It's a version of thc. It's a perfect substitute for anyone who uses delta nine Who wants the same great feeling without the negative side effects? You don't have to be a drug guy. I say i'm not a drug guy

He's got a new documentary coming out august 28th video on demand
Starting point is 01:20:59 You cannot kill david arquette That's a ballsy title for documentary given 2020 and everything that's gone on. Wouldn't you say? Yeah, I was titled before 2020 it actually is based on a 90 song that a band called the black math experiment wrote about me and sort of my characters and movies that I never died And we decided to use it as a title, but little did I know there'd be so many people suffering so hard Yeah, is that true? Have you never died in a movie? I have died several times in movies and buffing the vampire slayer. I died twice No, so but in the scream movies and just In general it's just like sort of a funny fan song that they made but we wanted to put in the film
Starting point is 01:21:46 It was my wife who produced the film Christina arquette is she did an incredible job. She suggested it and the directors david dark and james price were super cool and saw it Saw how it worked and used it. It's funny that you mentioned that because I've kind of always wondered about actors when they do Die in movies like do you get coached on how to die or is that left up to your interpretation? Because I know some some people do you know the eyes roll backwards in their head some people stop breathing for a while Do you do you actually have to hold your breath? You do have to hold your breath, especially if you're playing a dead body
Starting point is 01:22:21 Like if you're in a casket or if you're just dead on the floor in this scene Those are weird because sometimes you can do like a week where you're just dead on the floor You're just coming in getting dressed laying down and trying to not breathe You know, there's a lot of weird stuff that happens in making the movies, but you know There's all kinds of different ways to die You know, it's all always kind of creepy doing certain kind of research as an actor Yeah, so the documentary you are making a return to professional wrestling Uh, you're trying to and you can tell me this is wrong right
Starting point is 01:23:04 What you what has been wrong or what people have perceived is wrong after you won the wcw title And fans have kind of shit on you for that for the last 20 years What how has that experience been like what if you are on the street? Will someone come up to you like fairly often be like you shouldn't have won the title like that was bullshit Or is it more like online? It depends like when I used to go to wwe events or something Some people would be cool like oh, there's a former champion or other people Not be so cool. It was really sort of got, uh Amplified with the internet, you know, the internet wasn't as big back then so
Starting point is 01:23:43 What's the internet came alive? I just became the butt of all the jokes And I just kind of got sick of it and like felt bullied and kind of wanted to stand up for myself and And just kind of figure out why people got so upset. What is it about wrestling that people really love? And uh, you know honor wrestling sort of make a love letter to wrestling with the with the movie we made Yeah, you grew up a wrestling fan. I know that you have uh, randy savage and miss elizabeth tattoo You've got like you actually grew up really enjoying this stuff So have you put yourself inside the brain of like a 11 year old david arkett and thought How would I feel if a guy like david arkett won the title belt when I was watching?
Starting point is 01:24:26 Well, that's how I thought it would be perceived more like I was living a fans dream like they could see Themself in me But the fact that I was an actor and the fact that I was a comedic actor. I think people like Kind of were like what? And you know since then the size, you know, they used to be just like all monsters like in their height And uh, and now with like daniel brine and and seth ralands and different people there's different sort of weight classes And uh, and any of them can really be the champion. It's just a matter of
Starting point is 01:25:04 You know if if the audience typically kind of Makes champions in a way they respond to the people they like they kind of support them and push them And then people then the companies sort of watch what's catching fire So since then It's a kind of dynamic and change where there's smaller wrestlers doing a lot of Interesting stuff. So I thought well I can I can compete with those guys And I learned something in the process too, but you know aside from just being
Starting point is 01:25:38 strong and And and tall or whatever You have to be tough and you have to be crazy and I had both of those things And I was like I can be crazier than any of you motherfuckers Yeah, so so that's sort of where I came from. I was like, all right, let's do this and and in the movie you can see It gets pretty insane. So I'm a wrestling fan and going through this You have to know is you you're a diehard wrestling fan as well Wrestling fans are irrational and they're very loyal. So has there been a part of you when you're making this you're
Starting point is 01:26:11 Trying to right the wrongs in the back of your head Do you realize that like half of the people who watch this still won't care and they'll be like fuck david archette Like he's still shouldn't have won it. Yeah No, no, and I totally respect that. I'm fine with that. I don't care I almost did it for myself just to stand up for myself. So You know, everyone's entitled to their own opinions and whatever their takeaways are I don't really care. I just wanted to Do it for myself and I really sort of learned a lot in the process and just
Starting point is 01:26:42 Felt, you know, by the end of it. I was sort of accepted in the locker room as one of the boys and You know, a lot of the people I was wrestling in the same On the same card with have now like since That experience have gone on to to be on AEW and WWE and You know, it's really cool to sort of see that progression. Yeah, I feel like you know, ultimately I was ranked top 500 in 2019 there you go. Okay, you made a list. That's always important. If you can look back and be like I don't care if it was like top 5,000 of something. That's me on that list. That's pretty cool
Starting point is 01:27:18 Um, I feel like you could have gone one of two ways with this You could have gone the direction that you ended up going which is like I want to prove myself to these guys I want to show that, you know, they didn't just hand something to me And I want to be respected or you could have gone the other way almost like the andy coffin route and gone Like I'm mr. Big shot from from hollywood california And you know, whatever I want to do I get to do did that thought ever occur to you to just like Fully embrace a heel roll and be like mr. Big shot from la. Yeah, well after a match that I lost to king brian I got so upset
Starting point is 01:27:54 That I felt people were patronizing me that I I did I did sort of Go a little crazy and started saying I was from hollywood. This was at northeast wrestling in In new york and then jerry luller came out and set me straight with the nice stiff pile driver Kind of put my head back on straight. So I'm glad that I had that happen But andy kaufman was always a an inspiration for me I always loved his love for wrestling and the fact that he embraced it so much
Starting point is 01:28:27 And you know, there's tons of matches that he did in the memphis area that you know, hollywood or or Even the wrestling community weren't really aware of he really wrote that storyline and played it out for a long time wrestled all these girls and all those funny stuff. So I always got a kick out of that I think if you want to be accepted in in the wrestling community, you just got to talk about all your injuries more So what's the gnarliest injury you've had wrestling? Well, I got stabbed in the neck with a light tube. Okay, that's pretty good. My fault. That was the gnarliest I thought I was dying. It actually hit my neck muscle where I got five stitches in my neck muscle But um, it protected me from my jugular getting hit
Starting point is 01:29:10 um That was sort of the craziest but the most painful was fracturing three ribs and then still having to wrestle for Months on end. Okay with fractured ribs is really so painful because you're all constantly slamming your body down and uh, when you have Fractured ribs, it's hard to breathe or sneeze. It's just everything hurts So uh, that was that was super painful and then after the piled driver Uh, my my neck muscle has been jacked up ever since There's certain things you have to do to protect yourself and if you're just coming up you kind of learn like you learn
Starting point is 01:29:48 Not to do something again Like I'll never take another piled driver from jerry luller Not that he does it wrong or anything like that the way I took it was wrong. But um But yeah, so I don't know. It's it's so crazy. You constantly I had a surgery on my elbow You know my back still messed up. It's it's a brutal brutal sport. Um, can we talk about your other love the lakers? Oh, yeah Is lebron a real laker? Yeah, of course. He's a real sure he is. He's not a mercenary hired gun
Starting point is 01:30:25 I don't know about that as long as he puts the jersey on and wins the championship. That's all we care about So Dwight Howard's a real laker Uh, yeah, I mean Uh, the way the way I look at it is you put the uniform on your laker in my book I don't know. I'm pretty loose about that stuff though. I like I'm like a fair weather fan I'm not like all hardcore. Well, you go to a lot of games, right? You sit you have seats pretty much court side Or are they court side? They're my buddies. Okay. All right
Starting point is 01:30:55 Whenever I get the call and I have to ask because there was that famous uh incident after a playoff game in 2010 I want to say when you got in like you you were you jumped on a fan It was trying to get into onto the court. You basically just decided you were security guard Probably because you're wrestling background. What happened there? No, it was uh, it was a fan who had gotten out of line and he was choking a One of the security guards Nobody was doing anything. So I pulled the guy off But then it was probably the worst thing that could have happened because that just brought more attention to
Starting point is 01:31:31 Yeah, it just stayed in my way I feel like they should have given you season tickets just for that. Yeah, at least made you a security guard, right? And let's see. Yeah, some kind of badge or something. They definitely like You know are very nice to me and But I don't think the security guard was a big fan of Of me doing that. There's a great picture of like, I think it's an MMA fighter who's just sitting back and he's sitting right there Just just watching So somebody that was actually like trained to intervene in a situation like that
Starting point is 01:32:04 Yeah, he's sitting back like he knows not to get involved. I was I was a knucklehead. Yeah, there's some funny pictures out there I'm looking at it right now of you of you wrestling this guy off of the security guard Man of action. I would have just said no, thanks. Like I'm just gonna, you know Leave my seat go try to beat the traffic. I'm out of here I wanted to jump back real quick to uh, I think the first time I was introduced to you was the scream movies Oh, yeah, so that was like right in my wheelhouse coming up Mid-90s you played officer dewey in the scream movies Uh, I guess my first question is were you scared by the scream mask because that thing as like an 11 or 12 that thing was terrifying
Starting point is 01:32:44 So scary Yeah, I know it was crazy. The story is that west They couldn't find the mask they were looking and they he went into the back of this Like old costume store and found this mask like and he's like what about this one? and uh and apparently They had bought it and used it in the movie but hadn't got the rights to it so Whoever designed that mask owned the rights and then until they put like scream on it
Starting point is 01:33:16 It's not a scream mask. It's only that other guy's mask He's a famous mask maker like Halloween costume mask maker that I feel like a good mask can totally make a horror movie Like just that mask alone. It's like iconic. Everybody recognizes. Mm-hmm. Oh, yeah, I love that I did a I did a horror film called the tripper where my killer was a A guy who was obsessed with ronald reagan who had attacked hippies at an outdoor music festival. Holy shit Yeah I thought of like a crazy time. I had on a music festival and I was like
Starting point is 01:33:52 What if some maniac came out of the woods and just started hacking all these hippies up? So I sort of Did this like political sad tire in a horror film now? Were you under the influence at that point or we is that just how your brain works? Like this is your brain on david arquette. Yeah a little bit about I mean there's always sort of You know that those kind of functions. You're pretty loose How many screams are are they're going to be made? I know scream five is in pre-production if they if in like 20 years We're on scream nine. Are you like i'm in just keep running it back
Starting point is 01:34:27 Absolutely. I love playing the character. I love working with west and corny. I mean, sorry corny and nev and I'll miss working with west for west to To carry on west's legacy is a big part of this just sort of Being close to the people who are a part of the originals. Um, you collect puppets Yeah, I have a bunch of puppets. This is that's fucking creepy. I know this is a monkey who like waves, but he was in the the beginning of the
Starting point is 01:35:01 Peewee's big adventure outside of the the bike store. Oh, I love that Wait, so how many puppets do you have because like aren't aren't you ever afraid that you're going to wake up one night? And all the puppets will be animated and they'll be alive ready to kill you Like if you have one puppet in your house that puppet, it's not if it's just a when will it decide to become alive And kill you Well, are you afraid of puppets? Yeah, i'm afraid of puppets are fucking creepy man You were just saying that you were at a music festival the happiest place in the world

Starting point is 01:36:01 This guy dude. That's my grandpa. Oh my god, dude. Can you do that? No, i'm sorry. Can you do this thing? I do have a bit of a puppet obsession because we have puppets at bootsy bellows So they go around they dance and People take pictures with them like for instance Well, I think it's also one of those things that if you get one puppet you might as well get a hundred because you're just a puppet person You know what I mean? Like a sliding scale. You just it's over once your first puppet has been purchased and put prominently in your house It's that's a wrap. Yeah Well that first one the real creepy one i showed you my grandfather made that so
Starting point is 01:36:37 We've had puppets in our family for a long time puppets in your blood. Okay, do you do a ventriloquist thing? Can you throw your voice or do you just have them around and just look at them? My whole things I do it really badly like that's my I just like Jesus christ i'm i'm like upset at myself for even asking that question. What else do you collect anything else weird?

I mean, yeah You shouldn't watch them so early, but You know, maybe that's your next documentary making the the right that is the wrong of like scaring all these kids I think yeah, I think that you actually scared my entire generation off of answering phone calls Yes, like we all have talking on the phone.

Let's see Yeah nailed all this then should limit alcohol to one drink a day federal committee says okay government Yeah, the guy I have been Inter-recently just moved for a job to los vegas How likely is it that guys partake in sex with hookers in vegas question mark? Should I be expecting this to happen like some kind of vegas initiation and everyone does it? Or do most guys not actually do this as much as I think and do you have any of your own personal experiences with vegas hookers? Thank you. Love you guys. Uh, yeah, definitely like once you enter into vegas in the airport does brothel
Starting point is 01:43:59 Everyone stops in they play the one slot machine at the gate when they get off and then they go slide it in real quick And then boom they're in vegas. Yeah, I'm sure with this job too There's like some type of like employee discount or like one of those like benefit. It's a perk. Yeah You know how when you land in in hawaii, they automatically put the lay on you. It's like that in vegas except it's a vagina I if this girl is writing in and she's been like your boyfriend also who moves to vegas at this time That's true, but uh your boy like Guys are either hooker hooker guys or they're not and if you don't know he probably is Although if you can't definitively say yeah, my boyfriend wouldn't get a hooker in vegas when he goes there for a weekend
Starting point is 01:44:40 Um, he's moving there moving there probably for the hookers. Um, maybe he's a hooker for a job That's why he's right. He's he's a he's a pimp So he's got to move to vegas for it But yeah, if you are asking yourselves Would my boyfriend do something like this? He probably would there's nothing more electric though than going on a trip with somebody And then finding out that one of your friends is a surprise hooker guy Then that's that's the talk of the trip for the entire like even after the trip's over You're like, hey, can you believe craig big hooker guy got three the first night to the second night?
Starting point is 01:45:11 He's broke ask yourself this if he if he like when you guys met was he um forward with you was he like Talkative and picked you up or did you have to do the work because if you had to do the work He's probably a hooker. Yeah, it does he got no no tea and he's lazy and he's just like i'm just gonna pay for this Does he leave money on the nightstand? Mm-hmm Yes, does he take showers all day? Why is my boyfriend's number one best friend on snapchat his ex-girlfriend? Why is he's getting news?
Starting point is 01:45:43 I don't know how any of that stuff works Is snapchat still like Doing it. I think snapchat has converted full-time to a photo editing service People just use snapchat to like make a photoshop and take the screenshot But snapchat I feel like was the thing and now it's just tiktok has just washed them Although now instagram has focused their attention totally on tiktok. They forgot about snapchat now what snapchat should do Instagram wash snapchat. Yes Instagram should or snapchat should now start to copy instagram and make their own tiktok
Starting point is 01:46:14 What do you billy as our 21 year old I do snap You know, it's a lot of like people who i'm friends with use snapchat as their only messaging service Really? Yeah, see I was I was gonna kind of uh Be proud of myself because I like withstood snapchat like everyone was like you got to get snapchat I guess and I was like now and I was like I beat it. There you go. It's like I might not have It's like waiting when the time changes for an entire five months until it switches back I'm doing this wrong now. They're right. I'm doing the same with tiktok. I probably will be wrong on that one
Starting point is 01:46:46 But I'm trying what what kind of a feature is that though where it allows other people to see who your best friends are And who you're secretly sending messages that will self destruct to I think he's just looking at the snapchat, right? Yeah, you got to go into their account It used to be it used to be public and that used to cause a lot of issues Yeah, because you might be snapping chat snapchatting someone for like one night and then the next day your best friends And then you got to hear about it. Ah got it Hey boys, ever since you guys started playing Dungeons and Dragons My boyfriend has been obsessed and asked me every day to go play with him. It sounds kind of nerdy
Starting point is 01:47:19 Should I play with him? Yes. Yeah, just get dressed up like a dragon. Yes. He probably wants to fuck a dragon. Absolutely play with it Cannot recommend it enough All right, I think this person is just trying to fuck with me, but there's a lot of medical terms. So bear with me Dear wise ones take off my pants I'm a medical assistant in a urology office and regularly. I have to see other men's penises parentheses. I place catheterers Yep, yeah catheterers like like federer but kath kath ether female federer catheter catheter catheter catheters catheters Place catheters and assist with
Starting point is 01:47:58 Cystoscopies Cystocopies and vasectomies Cystoscopies I spell that out. C Y S T O S C O P I E S Cyst Cisectomies Cisectomies. Yeah There's no M though and vasectomies The guy I'm seeing doesn't seem to mind mostly because he has no idea that I have to touch penises on a daily basis
Starting point is 01:48:25 I haven't met any of his friends in person But he constantly mentions his best friend and has shown me pictures of him because I asked One day his best friend showed up to the office and needed a catheterer placed Because he hasn't seen or met me yet. He had no idea who I was Unsure of what to do. I just quickly did what I've done a million times and moved on I touched his penis. Do I tell the guy I'm seeing or do I try and pretend like I've never seen him before? Hmm
Starting point is 01:48:51 I think you have to keep that one You have to keep that one quiet because his best friend probably doesn't want all his friends to know that he gets catheterers Well, usually the person's unconscious when that happens, right? To get a catheter. Yeah. Yeah No, I don't think anyone's What's a what's what is it? What is it? They stick like a straw up your dick. It's like when you can't pee They put a little tube up there
Starting point is 01:49:15 And then I mean I've watched daytime television. It's all geared towards old old people and they're like Are you sick of reusing your catheterers? All right, well then try this one So, yeah, it's just it's a tube that basically just siphons urine out of your bladder the black ox girl is I'm sorry. That's all right. Youngest team in the playoffs I'm sorry, big cat. That's okay. 43.
