You're a teacher. Are you ready for your assignment? I am. You are. Are you really? All right. So the backstory here is our darling Jake texted PFT PFT and I oh no fuck. Oh, you're not ready whale thing

No, no, no, no Hank. No you had an assignment for our darling Jake texted PFT I said I have three three Different reminders set for this week the first reminder Which you know what, we can do another time because we have a bunch of stuff going on right now and Hank's traveling on Thursday. No, that is not yours. We're going to do NFL coaches draft. We did last year. We did that last year. It was fantastic. Current NFL coaches draft. So we'll do that. A lot of mics. We also had a reminder to do

all-time rankings for groups do all time rankings for position groups. So it'd be like, if you're taking like the Vikings wide receivers, you get Randy Moss, Chris Carter, and Justin Jefferson, whatever. We'll do that as well at some point. But today, oh no, sorry. You have till Friday. you have till Friday.

You have till Friday. You're supposed to teach us an econ class, Hank. Eastern Connecticut? No, that would be economics. I have no idea where this came from. I forget the context behind it, but Hank said that he would teach us an economics class. Econ 101 class, I know you're not ready right now but you'll be ready for

Friday I'm gonna be here for oh so you already failed you incomplete no I'll give you guys a so then we pass no we're gonna do it you have to do it class I want to learn I don't I didn't take econ I didn't I literally never got past algebra 2. So what's a fair amount? There's a difference. One's a math class. The other is economics. Yeah. What's a fair time frame?

How much time do you need to teach us econ 101? We want to see what Hank Lockwood comes up with econ 101. A week? Maybe we do it on the bus a great week. OK. I like that. While we're driving. Do that. Can you tie it into sports? Maybe teach us what the salary cap is. Oh, okay. Second apron. Yep. Get that going. I would like you to become a capologist, not

just because you lie all the time. Just, I want you to teach us about this. If you became our capologist, this show would go to the moon. I'm not saying that you're holding us back, but that specific thing is definitely holding us back. Yeah Yeah, I'll try. I mean I struggle with you know multiplication tables same you're teaching dumb students to just so you know like I'm Math and I have never gotten along ever Oil and water I would have liked Jake to have texted you that but that's all right. Yeah, that's okay

He kind of set you up. Yeah. But also he was being he was being responsible. He's texting us the rivalry continues. Yeah. Yeah. In the afterlife Jake is getting you is haunting you. Okay, so that was the I mean I it's a slow time in sports but that we saw that we asked our we're like shit, we have to address this. The listeners are going to be like, where's the econ class? We thought we were getting an econ class. And the NFL coaches draft and the all time ranking groups for position groups. Let's do the NFL coaching draft while you do the econ draft. We'll do a combo.

We're going to get so lost in that snake. It's going to be insane. So it'd be like lesson, round of the draft. Lesson, round of the draft. That's some, I don't think anyone's ever done that on a podcast. I like this. I like this. This is going to be- Fuse the listeners purposefully. Yeah. Make terrible audio. It's going to be educational. Yeah. I do have an economics question as it pertains

to the NFL. Oh. Do you think that Jordan Love deserves to be the highest paid quarterback in football? Listen. Highest paid player in football. Here's what I'm going to say about Jordan Love real quick. I don't... This has nothing to do with him being a Packer. He's holding out right now for people who aren't paying attention. He's holding out. He's not going to practice. He's holding in though. He's holding in. He's not going to practice with his team until he gets his new contract. I can't remember a player ever doing this. This is one of the most

selfish things I've ever seen a player do. I don't remember. Someone can show me a time that a player has been like, I'm not playing until I get my contract. That would be the first I've ever seen of it because as far as I know, Jordan Love is the first player to do this and it's disgusting. And if you were his teammate, you know what? I would like, Huey, can you please set up an anonymous tips email, any Packers players that want to reach out anonymously and tell us about Jordan Love being so selfish that

he's not going to training camp? We will hear you out and we'll keep you 100% anonymous and we'll read your story for the world on Friday. This is the downside to the Packers of like the way that they do their quarterback system. Yeah. They draft a guy and let him sit for a while. Yeah. And then they get out there and they play like one half of the season like one of the

best quarterbacks in the league. And now it's like, shit, now we have to pay them immediately. Yeah. They don't get any of those, the window is stuffed. Yeah. Their guys are too good that they have to pay them right away. Let me ask you a question, PFT. If you were a fan of a team, would you rather your quarterback-

Win the Heisman Trophy, yes. Yes. But miss two days of mini camp or an entire week, maybe more, of training camp. Training camp. Which one comes after Phase Me? Phase Me is training camp. Okay, training camp comes afterwards. I would rather have my quarterback miss minicamp.

Wait, wait, wait. Is it mandatory minicamp? Kind of. It's a little bit. We don't really know. It's excused, not excused. That was going to be my follow-up question. Partially excused. I would say if it's an excused missing of mandatory mini camp, yes. If it's an unexcused missing of voluntary mini camp, no. I don't want that guy anywhere near my team. Okay. So I bring this up because Aaron Rogers has shown up to training camp, which was up in the air because if you remember on our on Wednesday's or on Monday's show

He said when we asked him he's going to training camp. He said yeah, probably As first reported by us the yeah part. Yep one out So Aaron Rodgers is at training camp the most important time of team building of the entire season is building your team during training camp Aaron Rodgers at training camp Jordan love is not a training camp Is Aaron Rodgers less of a diva than Jordan Love? Miss me yet? Hmm. Yeah. Interesting to think about. This is a good lesson in the economy because the market is speaking right now and it's saying that Jordan Love, if they do, I think they will make him the highest paid like per year. I don't know. Which is crazy because he's a grand total is going to do. 32 years old. Yeah, so um, so so making Jordan love the highest-paid

quarterback after like such a small sample site, that's the free market in the NFL Yeah, it's one of those situations where you have to pay him. Yeah, I think though what though, what would you guess Thursday? It even today. Yeah, it could be today today though He'll get paid and he'll just be back at camp and it won't be nothing So the current highest paid player per year is Joe Burrow. He gets $55 million a year. Which. Just signed his contract.

Also, I hand up, spent way too much time this morning thinking about Joe Burrow's hair. Yeah, so he shaved his head and then he bleached his head. Yes. So he looks like Eminem right now. So I, the shaved head, I was like, bangles are going to win the Super Bowl. All business. It almost looked like a mug shot. He's like, I don't need hair. I don't need any of these frills. Better than you. Uh, sorry. That was mean. The bleached hair, I don't really, I can't figure out. It does look like Eminem. It looks like straight out

of 1998, but that feels like Fashion Joe's. Like I was totally in on Joe Burrow being like, I'm going to training camp. I'm going to shave my head like a Marine. And this is like, this is, this is war this season. But then to bleach it, like late nineties. But wait, what I think is going to happen, I think this is, this is just team building. This is just a guy being a dude. Letting them make fun of him?

Letting them make fun of him during training camp. And then I think once the regular season starts, then it's business hair. I like that. It's back to business for Joe. I like that. I predict he will not play an NFL game with bleached hair. Yeah, Hank, by the way, what you said. So wait, not one single game.

I don't think, not a regular season. Yeah, because he is going to play in the preseason this year. Yeah. Yeah. Do you want to bet on it? Anyone want to take the other side I don't I agree with you I think he'll go back yeah I agree with you I agree with your assessment Hank what I was gonna say was that was mean of me but I think we found out that shaving your head was never a punishment because you I haven't even noticed yeah

I I was a shaved head guy until I was like 20 because my friend did haircuts and I was too broke to get other haircuts. So yeah, you just go just rock the bus. You go out, you buy one of those clippers and then you're number three. Yeah. So if you don't do the econ lesson on great week, you got to reshape. Not the back. Oh, come on. I'm gonna do the econ. Okay. You know already, you so you know so much about econ already. It's true How to not pay taxes? Mm-hmm. Also everything how to make more money by not paying taxes. Yeah all these things. I Am gonna think about I will be I will be at the beach this weekend I might try and get some Sun in there like get my hair blonde. Yeah, so Joe burrow

Yeah, okay mean fights it that a couple years ago. It gets blonde and red real fast We'll find out a little ginger. We do need a ginger on this podcast. I've been raw dog in the Sun this summer by the way I've been using any sunscreen pause. Yeah, it might be a problem. I Feel like it's a problem what you're laughing about the pause. I said the Sun you didn't say which so no you didn't say oh, so it Oh, you're a pervert. I don't know if it was a you or a pervert we talked about Hover talking about brahmi a lot recently. That's gross Yeah, I should probably start pronounce sunscreen, but it's it's nice having a tan because when you're fat You just got it if you can't tone it you got a tan it haven't haven't used a single ounce of sunscreen

It doesn't feel like a manly thing. I know, again, this is not something people should do. We are not role models, Charles Barkley, blah, blah, blah. Something about just raw dog in the sun. What I like to do is I go out for the first hour, no sunscreen, and then I put it on. Get a little base coat going. But yeah, if you're going on a vacation,

you can't do the first day sunscreenless yes, then you just ruin the whole trip I just get yeah, but I I don't really burn that bad so get the swarthy olive skin. Yeah us Italians me and Max Jewish and Italian have very very similar skin. Yeah, and I'm an Italian father. Yeah, so Okay, the other Quarterback I wanted to talk about you guys see Bryce Young coming in. I didn't see Bryce Young Like me he had an accidental six-year-old day. It happens from time to time swag. Do you have a backpack on? Yeah, yeah

You gotta you gotta ditch the backpack either that or go like full steam ahead with it and rock a spongebob backpack. Yeah Swagless that was tough. Yeah, swagless. That was tough. Yeah, he doesn't... I'm not inspired by Bryce Young. Yeah, because I was like... Especially when your last name is Young. Yeah, and he was kind of... I was toying around with the idea of being like, maybe buy stock in Bryce Young this year, you know? Because there's always one guy that everyone's written off. And then I saw that, again, it's a four second clip.

This is how we consume our NFL in this part of the summer. It's basically long pass in practice. Don't think about the fact that they also threw six picks. And guys walking into the building on day one, how do they look? Yeah, the walk up, when you show up to training camp and some guys drive those like spider cars in, you know, they get, you rent a car for that day for the first entrance. The Packers on the bicycles, kind of weird. And then the cameras that they set up for

the social team when the players are coming off practice and they're asking like, is water wet? As they're leaving the practice field. That's training camp. That's the whole training camp. Yeah. It does your team. Is your team about to get into a fight? Yeah. That's, that's training camp. Are they ready to hit somebody else? Yeah. Are they tired of hitting each other? Yeah. How bad is Lamar Jackson's diarrhea? Bad. Bad. Two days bad. What team do you think will have a report about there being an actual fight over NCAA. Oh, I didn't even think about that. What team has the biggest mix of different SEC players? That's a good one, Hank.

Cause, oh man, I'm so jealous of everyone who's been able to just basically fuck off for the last two weeks and just do nothing but play this game. Cause I've not played- You have mentally, in a way. Yeah, I mean I've, I, when I'm playing it's on stream, I've had very

little practice time, but like, I'm talking about the dude who's listening is right now, who's 27 years old, single, no kids, nothing, no responsibilities, not, doesn't have roommates, so maybe a little bit past the roommate time.

And he's working at nine to five. And he has played this game 100 hours in the last seven days. That guy is my hero. The guy whose apartment is just the folding chair, the TV and that's it. Yeah, he just has been like, I'm not going to talk to anyone. I'm not going out. I'm just going to rip dynasties for the next seven days, or probably more than that, a couple weeks, until they like resurface into regular civilization. That guy is living the dream.

I think this might be the first day in the sports calendar year, at least for the last 10 years, where the optimal day to get a vasectomy is not before March Madness. Yeah. It was right before this game came out. Yeah. But even then, if you're getting a vasectomy, that means you have kids. That means you're probably not playing the game. Probably not playing as much. Like I just don't- A recreational vasectomy? I had a very sad conversation with our friend Scott Van Pelt because he loves this game. And he was like, I think I just don't have, I'm washed and I don't think I have

The amount of time that I need to get good at it and it's like a very It was like almost like a heartbreaking conversation. I was having with it. Yeah, it's like this is This is a really sad thing that we're talking about guys can't have hobbies They can't they can't just fuck off from the entire world for ten days and be like, I need to work on my recruiting for Coastal Carolina. That would actually be a great thing for dads to be able to do, just adults in general. Spend a week where you're essentially in prison, but it's a prison of your own choosing where you get to bring like a piece of technology in there. You get to sleep however much you want. Don't have to look at phone calls. Don't have to deal with work.

No emails. The best out of office email reply ever set up. Yep. And just have a week where you don't do shit. So I do. I play this game. Yeah. I play this game.

What were we talking about? Lamar Jackson. Oh, the teams. Anyone going to get in a fight over it? Oh yeah. Which team? Good question, Hank. Which team most likely?

That is a fair question. Hmm. Feels to me like it could be from the AFC South. I'm gonna say the Jaguars. I don't know why. I was thinking that too. Yeah, Jaguars. Jaguars are gonna fight over this. Let's do it.

Is Christian Kirk on the Jaguars still? He's a gamer, right? I don't know if he's still on the Jaguars, but... Oh! I mean, the Cardinals. Kyler Murray. Yeah, Cardinals. Kyler Murray is going to get his ass kicked this week. We got to do new faces soon. Yeah, we got to do that whole, maybe get a quiz going. Here we can set it up. By the way, I just want to say, because I know I'm going to get a lot of replies being like, dude, you have a dream job. I agree.

I just wish I had more free time to be able to just fuck off and play college football, that's all. Yeah. I mean, I'm very jealous of all those guys who have that right now. It is nice. It's the best. It is nice.

Just know this, just take this. If you're one of the people I just described, just take one second out of your day and be like, yeah, I am living in the good old days. You think that's why Joe Biden dropped out? Yeah, probably. More time to play college football? Yes.

Delaware State national champions? Definitely playing on freshman mode. Yeah. He's playing Grand Theft Auto. He's like, I love this college football game. All right. Any other sports stories that we can talk about? Olympics coming up?

Yeah, I got one of those in my hot seat cool throne Okay. Oh, yeah LeBron did save or was that it? No, it was LeBron did save team USA. We're playing against Germany Yeah, and Roger's very conflicted which was a good guy in that game. I watched that clip back. That was crazy Yeah, it was that he took a second. He's like where are we? I think he's just I think Aaron is so He's in a mode now where he just questions everything, which I don't have a problem with because I think those types of people, we need more. But he was thinking about questioning World War II and then he stopped himself. He kind of stopped himself. I also think, yeah, you're right. He just likes to say,

were we? Yeah. Are we? Just to kind of like let you know that he thinks that he's smarter than you sometimes. Yeah. But in that context, if I remember the conversation correctly, I think he was replying more to the fact that you said he was talking about dropping the bombs. Yes. Yes. And so he's saying, that's where we're, that's up to debate. Were we good for dropping the bias? That is a hundred percent up to debate. Yeah. Yeah. So LeBron saved team USA, saved Team USA from Germany. We were, we were losing, then we were winning, then we were losing again. And then he made a basket at the end. So yeah, with his offhand. Well, was it? Yeah, I think he made a, it was not with his right. It was right handed. Yeah. Yeah. His offhand, his

offhand, he's, he's beating everyone in offhand competitions because he's actually a lefty and his offhand is his right hand which he shot with for 40 years. Yep okay, we have a Big big story coming out of the SEC mmm, and that is that they've decided which team is going to be UT Oh, Texas or Tennessee? Who do you think is UT big cat? Man This is huge. I mean, I think Tennessee gets the rights to it Oh man.

This is huge. I mean I think Tennessee gets the rights to it but I think when I think of UT, I feel like I say Tennessee and when I think of UT I say Texas. Yep. If Tennessee wants it they deserve it. That's fair because they've been in the SEC. The SEC agrees. Right.

Texas is Tex. Tex. Tex. Oh this is for the graphic. For the agrees. Texas is Tex. Tex. Tex. Oh, this is for the graphic. Not for like, I'm an idiot. I was thinking of just like casual conversation. They're going to police everyone's language. Oh, we will. Yeah, yeah. We will. Yeah, no, Tennessee should get, ah, they should, you know, it should be like a Midas Touch. Is that the right, no, King Solomon? Cut it in half. Cut it in half. It should just be 10 in Tex. 10 in Tex? I like when it's T-E-N-N.

10, yeah, I think that's what it is. Yeah, so they're not getting UT? No, no, I think it's Tex, T-E-X. UT is now Tennessee. But I'm saying I think I've seen T-E-N-N. Yeah, yeah, that's what I like. Yeah. Now I- So neither of them got UT? No, Tennessee did.

But they're going with 10. No, Tennessee is UT got it. Yeah, I wish they would stay as 10 I think they decided this based on which orange was better and it's Tennessee Tennessee Tennessee Tennessee gets right to this That's I have no problem. Yeah, but I do like when the score bug says T E and then people are big mad about this in Texas. Well shouldn't change conferences. Yep People are big mad about this in Texas. Well, shouldn't have changed conferences. Yep. Also, the Big Ten Conference is going to keep the championship game in Indy till 2028, which

just is so great. Because if you're a USC or UCLA fan, you probably said to yourself, I'll never be an Indian actress. Or Rutgers. Rutgers. Well, they still won't. But USC and UCLA fans are definitely pissed. They're pretty mad about this.

Probably not UCLA. USC and Oregon? Yeah. UCLA is probably like, oh, okay, noted. Yeah. Okay, we can clear that schedule. Yeah. And then also we have, there's more smoke going around about the 18 game schedule.

Yeah, so the NFLPA and the NFL have had discussions about the 18 game schedule. I think we figured it out with Joe Burrow. Yeah. When we talked before the bleach got to it. Double by. It said double by and then Super Bowl. It's been a no brainer to have the Super Bowl on President's Day weekend. No offense to Lincoln. But yeah, it should, that's how the schedule should line up.

Yeah. And it's basically eliminates winter. Yeah. Because if you have football on winter doesn't exist. Mm-hmm That's I mean, I know it can be cold. But if you have something to look forward to Being football on the weekend you can get through the week. Yeah, so how are they gonna is this gonna affect? Obviously it'll affect revenue. So that would mean that salaries go up. Do we get anything more and then you gotta work more Whoever yeah, we should get more whoever the next quarterback is is it still Tua

Is it Tua after Jordan love I thought to is supposed to be this before Jordan love, but but it's we just passed to it's kind of At one point it was great for Tua to see all these deals getting done Yeah And then at some point it became bad for Tua where he's like am I gonna get my long-term deal? Yeah, and there'll be be CJ Stroud soon. Well, I guess he has to go three years first. Yeah, I guess Tua, did Tua get lost? Yeah.

I think Tua got, a party's gonna be a fun one. I cannot wait for the Brock party, of course. That's gonna be so great. Yeah. We're gonna say Max, you had something to say? No. Memes, once in, were Tua and Jordan love in the same draft class?

Yes. It was Herbert, Burrow, Tua. Well, we can find out very quickly. 2020, I think he was. I think Jordan Love was like the 22nd pick or something in that draft class, because it was the COVID draft, right?

Yeah, Chase Young draft. Yes. Yes, he was. The answer is yes. And he was picked 26. So yeah two of us should be in Herbert and Joe Burrow and yeah have all been paid. So Jordan Love's gonna get paid. Man this is gonna be a hell of a draft class for quarterbacks. It is gonna be wild yeah. That's class for quarterbacks. It is gonna be wild. Yeah, that's nuts Were you drafting a quarterback there? Me yeah, we should have hurts also in this draft class We were talking about first round court. We should have we drive. We're talking about guys that are the guy said draft draft And you said chase class chase young that year almost had the opportunity to draft Joe burrow or just not ever

Or just Herbert or two but max Have you heard have you heard the rumors that they're not gonna be running the? Push-push push push this year They're not running as much. I want I want the rest of the NFL to think that because Jason Kelsey no Jason Kelsey Yeah, but Jay's have you heard that Jason Kelsey's been in the locker room He's got a locker in the coach's office, and he's been in more than any of the other players. Is he coach and He's a coach and he's gonna come back and he's Jason and he's a ESPN analyst. Yep. Seems like conflict wait So he's gonna play this year

No, but he's been in he's been in the locker and helping the boys Uh, I feel like he's going to play this year. He didn't look like he had lost. He looked good. Yeah, he didn't look like he lost a bunch of weight or anything. He looked good. If you have an injury, God forbid, at the center position, God forbid, you think Jason Kelsey's not going to come back if he has an office in the building?

And the team's good? Listen, if he wants to come back, I would love to have him, but I want him I want to enjoy his life because if he came back this would be an even better tush push Because you'd have sake one behind him. Yeah, you want whatever wads you want whatever is best for Jason Kelce That's like 1200 pounds worth of squats in the backfield pushing forward Yeah, no that there's some thighs back there. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, man There's me you creep me out either. He said that yeah. Yeah some thighs Yeah, so I guess two has got a we got a maybe we should just start I mean we are part of tuna on maybe we should be like hey, what about to to awareness?

Oh my hot seat is People there's a viral video today of a whale Essentially breaching and it seemed like it was like attacking or knocking over a boat on purpose. Yeah people William William football reported said an angry whale basically attacked a boat. As you know, how, if he was mad. Right. That's what people were

trying to say. Got it. It seems like they're already blaming the whale. Seems that's what I'm saying. And people, people were giving me shit for picking blue whales on orcas. I, I've said this before. I orcas are cool, but they're like a cursed animal. Why? Because of telecom and you know they basically got about so yeah Turned evil what about Jim urse's whale? I guess I was cursed to Tilikum was the one in blackfish Oh, yeah, one whose dorsal fin started to fold over because it was sad got it and and orcas weren't like you know Predatorial as you get as they are they're fighting back. Yeah, they basically but that was they are called killer whales, but they weren't killer whales until till come whatever I

Feel bad for orcas, but whatever then this blue whale video came out everyone was saying this is like what orcas do This is a killer whale move not true. I don't think that's a blue whale in this video It's a whale, but it's not it's not a killer whale blue whale I'm saying when people are giving me shit for my blue whale pick. This is in the same whale did look blue It kind of did, but it's not a blue whale, but it is a blue whale Yeah, blue whales kind of cucked everyone with the blue. Yeah, we're the only ones because there's a lot of blue whales Yeah, we're the white podcasters. Yeah, I reached out to a whale photographer. Yeah, some Intel What's his or her names?

Her name's Erica. Shout out to Erica for filling me in. Thank you, Erica. How's her furniture store doing? I said, as the whales weren't doing this on purpose, where I said, no, the whale is just trying to eat when there are schools of small fish all bunched up, anchovies, et cetera.

Whales will come in and try to eat them. The fishermen are trying to fish out the small fish. What are they doing? I don't know why they're trying to fish out the small fish. The whale can't see the boat. They have eyes on the side of their head. So the boat is just in the way. So it was an accident. Okay. So the, so yeah. And the boat right of way in water is always the S the bigger boat has right of way. Is that true? Heck it is the smaller boat. What is it not? Probably. You took a boating class. I feel like that should be the one thing I was like very, yeah, that should be the first thing they teach

you. What direction you're going in. No, but if you're a bigger boat, it's harder to maneuver. You have the right of way. Do you not? It depends on your next. I'm not getting on Hank's boat. And if I'm going to kayak and you're in a barge, who has the right motor boats, motor boats. Okay. If I'm in a dinghy and you're in a barge who has the right motorboats motorboats okay if I'm in a dinghy and you're in a barge who has the right away what's what are we going in the same we're going right at each other oh no it's easy for the smaller boat yeah yeah yeah yes the bigger boat has the right away the whale has the right away are you sure you took a boat well I know it know it depends on direction. What other one? Yeah. What do you, what other direction

would matter if you're going the same direction? Like if you're coming up and the boats going straight like T bone or is on my, yeah, do the bigger one or both stop. Yeah. So the bigger one still has the right away. But if it was reversed and the smaller boat is going this way and the bigger boats I think the bigger boat would still have the right talking about just two boats colliding into each other I don't know what you what you mean when you are you saying if it's like roads but the smaller boat is always the one that has to gather wait but if it's like 10 feet first 20 feet it's well then you

wouldn't then they wouldn't hit each other if it was 10 feet first wait we need 10 feet for 20 feet different. What are you talking about? He's saying if one boat are you saying if one boat is 10 feet in front of the other if a 10-foot boat a 20-foot Boat it depends with the directions on who has the right of way What 20-foot boat would yeah? Cuz they're bigger that's that's not true I'm pretty sure the ocean is like actually how the world should work there's your things get the right of way they're shipping lanes yeah either way this is how it should always be max

the bigger you are the more right away you get I don't think it's okay it was it was not even those were not there's gonna be a lot of attack there's gonna be a lot of corrections on this yeah yeah yeah yeah it was not an evil whale is what you're saying yeah correct the whale was just being a whale correct and the boat happened to have been the way correct wrong place wrong time also the whale was much bigger than the boat therefore the whale had right-of-way sure did they arrest the whale are they going to kill the whale like did they at least get his license plate? No, okay. This is a problem What do you just so what's your oh oh he googled it

I'm not even a boater. Oh no much bigger than yours have the right away Oh, not not I'm money. Yeah, you're not double a ten foot boat not just stand there and be like that's a 23 foot I got a 20 footer a 20 foot boat is You're not gonna stand there and be like, that's a 23 foot boat, I got a 20 footer. A 20 foot boat is literally double the size. In theory, there are plenty of situations where they do not have the right of way. In theory, what theory? They have the right of way. Are you reading a blog post?

If another vessel is approaching you from the port or left side of your boat, so that depends on the direction. No, there's no way that's what you're doing. That's exactly what I said. What's Starbird? You did not take a potion You just said port or left side a second ago, right? I knew that which one's Republican

What's the bow starboard or port all right my cool throne my cool thrones Trump? Okay, stick sports, but he's a very good golfer. Yeah, he looked awesome against the video with Bryson He was impressive. What do you shoot? They did it breaking? It's a series Bryson does called breaking 50 where him in one other person try and break 50 playing from the front tees So like every amble every yeah, every par four is drivable even par fives are drivable and for Bryce did they do it? I think they shot minus 22. So I think 50 or maybe 49 they do best ball or they do scramble or what scramble? damn But Trump Trump had a he plays a lot of golf to solo birdies in a solo eagle

Like on his own ball from the front tee Yeah, but with be like if you or I or PFT was playing with Bryson Yeah, but with me like if you or I or PFT was playing with Bryson It's doubtful that we would be have as you know, I would hope what happened a better golfer than me because he golfs Yeah, he's 79 what happened on the first hole. He's saying he's old Yeah, Wow, hey, we didn't say that about Joe Biden a week ago What happened on the first hole when we played against Brooks, right? We weren't playing with Brooks though. Like if we were playing with Brooks, we would have used his drive.

No, no I don't think so. Mine had a better lie. Got it. Better angle. Shit, he got you there PFT I think. What do you do with it? What do you have, what did you do with it? He made a birdie, he made an eagle.

Yeah. Sick. Yeah. Okay, PFT your hot seat cool turn. That was a very good hot seat cool tone. Thanks. That was good. Who was on the hot seat, though? Whale haters.

Smaller boats. Oh, the haters. Smaller boats everywhere. The haters of which they're. Really, Billy. Billy. Billy football wrote a blog saying an angry whale, and that got me angry.

Yeah. Why was Billy going after the animal? I think Billy was just, he was casting his own assumptions onto the whale. And it's dirty. It's a dangerous thing to do My hot seat is like he tries to think it was capsizing on purpose, which is something that killer whales. That's crazy Yeah, but that's a whale wouldn't do that killer whales, but that's not a whale is it?

The fish I don't know. No killer whales orcas whales. I Again, I don't know. They got the whole I thought I saw I started smart. Yeah, they got the blowhole. You sure about that? Yes. Did you get it in the boating class? Mm hmm. I just imagine Hank doing the boating class being like, where the **** are the questions about the whale? What are some other like very elementary boating questions to ask? Because I think we asked them the two most common ones. They didn't know either one. Why aren't they asking me what I'll

do if I see a whale? No, I was right about the right away one. Not really. And the starboard one. Oh, you want What about uh, how do you what kind of not to use to type your boat? What do you mean? I think that's a pretty easy question, right? You dock your boat. What kind of not to tie a Regular, I don't know. I don't know the name of the knot. What is the golden? I can either what is the golden rule of boating etiquette? I? Don't fucking know boat others the way you'd want to be treated

Yeah, you kind of did it do it do to others as you would have them do to you which that's not Boating that's just a very common. Yeah, it's just life boat boaters. Just took that the boaters code That was a me that was a mean question by PFT. There are many knots that you can tie to yeah Yeah, okay. I didn't know I Didn't take a boat in class. You said that was a very easy question. How old Do you have to be the be mandatory have to wear a lifejacket the whole time? Everyone has to wear a lifejacket the whole time. That's just not true 13 yes the whole time. That's just not true. 13. Yes. 13 is right. That's sometimes a trick question. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's fair. Yeah. Yeah. 13 year olds are required to wear a life jacket

at all times with the boat is underway. What's faster a mile per hour or a knot? Like a nautical knot per hour? What's rule nine in Bowdoin? If you're just floating away in the harbor you don't have to use a flare gun. No this is this is the problem you missed rule nine. Rule nine places the obligation on you the small vessel operator to avoid impeding the large vessels while operating a deep draft channel or fairway. That's the small boat rule. You got to remember rule nine. Yeah I mean the boats that I'm dealing with are like I'm dealing with right average-sized boats. Okay true or false an f-35 Lightning II can land on an aircraft carrier. True. Okay you know know boats. Okay. True or false. You should

not shoot a flare off in the harbor. True. Okay. Yeah. You know boats. You know boats. All right. Nice. Passed it. I feel like you're nervous that like the boating police are going to listen to that. No, I mean, I've gone on the boat one time this whole summer. I'm probably not going to do it again because I just never use it. What color are Coast Guard helicopters? Red and white. Aren't they orange? I have no idea. I feel like Coast Guard rocks orange sometimes. Hopefully I'll never find out. Yeah, good point. Good point. As long as you stay out of the harbor. You don't need the Coast Guard. Okay, PFT, your hot seat. My hot seat is Kevin Durant. Yeah. Kevin Durant. because has he played yet?

I don't think that he's played in any of the tune up games. Steve Kerr has said that he's not being sent home, that they need him, that he's going to be their closer at some point. Yep. Kind of weird that Kevin Durant hasn't played at all yet. Maybe he's unhappy. Isn't that what we heard about Kevin Durant? Yeah, he could be.

He's unhappy and he's looking to be traded. He's mad at Nike. Yeah, mad at Nike,'s unhappy and he's looking to be traded. He's mad at Nike. Yeah, mad at Nike, unhappy, and he'd like to be traded to France. Did you see- Kevin Durant. I feel like USA team, especially nowadays, it's just great controversy that happens. Did you see Drake? Did I see Drake shared a go team with everyone except LeBron?

Or did I make that up? LeBron's the oldest guy on the team, so that makes sense. No, because it was, not that. I guess there was a clip where they were playing Not Like Us and LeBron was like, Steph was like, this song again, this is the only song in the world, I've heard it a million times, LeBron's like, I could play it a million more, like this song fucking rocks. Love that. So I just saw the beef, I was like, oh, maybe that's real. Yeah, Drake can't do anything this summer

No, like you can't what he has worse summer by far. You can't leave the house. Yeah, if you're Drake Yeah, not because you have to notify your neighbors, but I think that um, maybe Steve Kerr just forgot that Kevin Durant's on the team Yeah, probably. It's like home alone. You get to France Kevin Kevin. Hey, is that crazy that you like we can say with a matter of fact that you had a far far better summer than Drake. It is crazy. That's nice. Like it's not even up for debate.

You dominated this summer compared to Drake. It's not over yet either. Congratulations. You got more winning to do. My cool throne is true love. True love is on the cool throne because you guys remember our good friend Pole Assassin, the dancer from Texas? Yes. And her husband? The monkey? Or her, excuse me, her boyfriend at the time,

Jeff Banks, a special team coach on the University of Texas. And Pole Assassin spelled P-O-L-E, she's an exotic dancer. Her monkey, Gia, allegedly bit a small trick-or-treater at Halloween a couple years ago. Pole Assassin immediately clarified, said that it was clearly labeled, do not pet my pet monkey when you come into our Halloween fun house. There's a big controversy about that. They just got married. Oh. Yeah.

So Jeff Banks and Pole Assassin, I don't know if Gia still with us But they're married there. They found love Steve Sarkeesian much other coaches were at the wedding showing support for the team I love that. I love it when a good story gets tied up. Yeah, that's beautiful because for a while It seemed like we didn't know what was gonna happen. There's lawsuits as people get arrested seem chaotic Well, they settled down they got married love pole assassin found love So shout out to her as beautiful. It's beautiful. I like having love. So shout out to her. That's beautiful. It's beautiful. I like having a good story every now and again. That's beautiful.

Okay, my hot seats. I have two. Well, first one is Tariq Scoobal, who is the presumptive Cy Young favorite for the Detroit Tigers, is possibly going to get traded. And it's more a hot seat for me because I think we've told this story, maybe we haven't. When we went to Detroit for the draft, an AWO came up to me, handed me an envelope,

and he's like, don't open this until I walk away. And in that envelope it just said, Tariq Scoobal, Cy Young plus 400. And I bet it right then and there. So I have plus 400, I think he's like minus 125 now But he might get treated to the Dodgers. Okay, so that's a problem. Yep. That's a big problem If he gets treated the Orioles, I'm good. If he gets treated the Dodgers. I'm fine. You don't want him in the National League Yeah, I mean there's players who have won

Siong while getting treated suck lifted it. I did Cliff Lee do it I'm pretty sure he did when he went from the Indians to the Phillies I think CC might have as well. Yo Han Santana. Are we making that up? I did Cliff Lee do it? I'm pretty sure he did when he went from the Indians to the Phillies. I think Cece might have as well. Yohan Santana, am I making that up? I don't think so, maybe though. So it can be done, but you'd have to be incredible and you also probably have to get traded a little earlier.

So I might be in trouble if he gets traded to the Dodgers. I hope he goes to the Orioles. But I feel like the voters, at least recently have become more more tuned into... They don't take into account wins and losses nearly as much as they used to. Yeah, but you have to be- Where it's like ERA, so if you have one less start, that might not be the worst thing in the world.

You'd have to be insanely, insanely good. I'm looking it up right now. I'm pretty sure it was- Yep, Cliff Lee and CeCe both did it. What was CeCe? Was it the same year? No. 08, back to back years. Cliff Lee and CC both did it. What was CC? Was it, was it the same year? No. Oh wait, back to back years. Oh wait, no, no. Oh wait, no, no. Yeah. So CC I remember. So I'm looking at right now. He was a beast. CC was insane because memory

was pitching on three days rest down that stretch for the Brewers. CC went to the Brewers and he had, he was 11 and two with a one six5 ERA in 17 games started. That's pretty hard to do. Yeah. What was Cliff Lee the year that he did it? The cause they do only vote for what you do in that league. Cliff Lee, I'm looking at right now. Got to be Indians Phillies, right? Yeah, it was Indians Phillies, but Cliff Lee was seven and four. Wait. So wait, the voting is three, three, nine ERA. Was there no one else in that? Oh no, he, did he win the Siong? I don't think he, no, no, no, no, no, no. It was no, he won the Siong in Oh, wait. Yeah. So it was just CC. So when you get traded to the other league, they only base their voting on what you did in your new league

They completely discard Anything you did in the AL if you go to the you know also I made this up because CC didn't okay This was bad information by this reddit post that I guess we both looked at Yeah, I mean, I just googled it. Yeah, but you know I'm saying big cat is that the rule yeah, if you if you have Would say it again. If you get traded at the deadline and you have a monster first two-thirds of the season or whatever, and let's say you're 10-1 with a 1.2 ERA, then you get traded and then after that trade deadline, then you go, I don't know, 6 and four. Yeah. And you have a 3.1 ERA. They won't give you the award, even though you average out

to somewhere like, I don't know, in the twos, ERA. No, I think that, so Sutcliffe did do it. I was right about that. He was four and five for the Indians in 1984. And they got traded to the Cubs. And he was 16 and one. And he won the NL Cy Young. Right, because he was so good. to the Cubs and he was 16 and won and he won the NL Siong right because he was so he was so good for this cut they throw out

Yeah, I think so really good beforehand Yeah, I think so that probably rocked back in the day if you got traded as a pitcher to the National League Yeah, it's like one free out. Yeah, it's crazy Yeah, I don't know either way my other hot seat was Joe Biden because he might be dead. And then my cool throne is... What? I think he was seen today. Oh, he was?

Yeah, he was seen coming off the plane. Oh, he's not dead. That's always good. All right, great. It's always good when you're talking about your president and you're like, don't worry, he's been seen. We saw him. Someone saw him. Great.

Okay. What about Jimmy Carter? That one, I mean, he doesn't wake up for full days. So yeah my Cool throne is the Wisconsin Badgers because they're finally serving beer at Camp Randall I took a very long time, but we're there that must have been the only place in the state of Wisconsin where you couldn't buy a beer It's crazy. I think they probably just did it because they're like it's gonna get too drunk But yeah, it's good that finally they're serving beer. I think they were doing it in like some of the VIP areas, but now

Everyone gets to drink beer. I like that. Yeah Okay Huey So I'm gonna start with my cool throne. It'll lead into my hot throne Oh hot throne. Okay, so well hot seat, you know Cool, you're. Cool Throne. Well, you're starting with your Cool Throne. Cool Throne, it's gonna get hot.

It's gonna get hot. This has never been done before. We're flipping it reverse. It's never been done. Cool Seat, Cool Throne. The WNBA! Okay, yeah! With the best ratings of the All-Star Game of all time.

The best ratings ever was 1.4 million. This top 3.4 million. Wow. Last year was under 900,000. So just colossal upgrade over last year's performance in numbers. I wonder who that could be from but... Might be you. Maybe. Talking about on this show Caitlin angel Huey But my hot seat coincidentally the WNBA That would also let into the other way around I've done that They won't be playing basketball for four weeks. Okay, so imagine if like the 1988 dunk contest It was incredible and then the NBA just didn't happen. Yeah

All the momentum they've gained just nothing's gonna happen and team USA is not even the best team of women in the in the USA Right, we saw them this past weekend So yeah, just a you know colossal mess up from them, but I guess nothing we can do. That's the part that sucks that they didn't think about. Like if Kaitlyn Clark was on Team USA, it wouldn't be four weeks off. It would be Team USA. Yeah, now it feels like you're just

kind of watching something else. Damn, that's tough. Yeah. Kaitlyn Clark should just livestream herself playing basketball at the same time as Team USA. Just shooting threes. Yeah, just take all of the viewers. All right.

Good job, Huey. Um, let's do some Mount Rushmore. Uh, Mount Rushmore is brought to you by our friends at Pepsi. Saucy, stretchy, crunchy, gooey, messy. Pepsi is an essential part of the most undeniably delicious food moments. Let's face it. Pepsi just makes every bite better. The refreshing pop of sweet fizzy Pepsi bubbles makes even the best food taste even better.

Grab a Pepsi Zero Sugar for your next meal as every crave-worthy bite is better with Pepsi. See this right here? I had a wild cherry Pepsi. Just finish it. It's so good. Last sip. Pepsi goes with all foods pizza wings burgers everything breakfast everything is better with Pepsi. Okay Mount Rushmore what is Hank

I blew it I blew it people did not like the Patrick Holmes pick I blew it you finished in second to last place again I fucking fucking blew it. I keep blowing it I keep blowing it. So you're not you're climbing back out of the hole Yeah, it's a long season. Just gotta keep my head down focus. I just fucking blew it So big cat unfortunately keeps blowing it which is really tough because he's not trying to blow it But have you thought that maybe he's trying to blow it? No, I don't think you would do that. No, I would never do that we also did you hear what they came up with Hank and Max came up with as a

Punishment for Mount Rushmore. No, this was memes. This is memes. Sorry memes I don't have to we we don't have to do it, but we put in the hat or we could make it the thing I don't think I did hear memes. Okay, so here it is and I I do think that it's a perfect punishment Maybe in the hat, or maybe we say this is just the punishment. Memes had an idea that the loser of Mount Rushmore has to win a national title in the new college football game on Heisman and can't stop till they do it.

OK, I don't hate that. It'd be very good stream. The more you get to the end, the more pressure becomes. And then as soon as you lose, it's like, oh my god, I gotta start over. You can do any school. Any school. We said we were gonna all pick a school,

a big school, and put it in a hat, and then you had to pick out of the hat. And we were gonna say offense only because it would take so long if we did offense and defense. I think if it's offense only, then. You'll never win one with defense. Yeah. Yeah.

And also offense only makes it so we've offensive only, you should be able to have like five or six cracks at it in a 24 hour stream. Okay. Yeah. I mean, one thing I mean, I think it'd be pretty fun. Yeah. I think it'd be pretty fun and it would definitely do big time numbers. I just gotta get a coaching staff like you have 12 people giving me plays. Well, that sounds like you're coming at me a little bit. No, it's just it's a it's a great punishment for you. What do you mean? I'm bad at the game and I played all-american You guys have more chance to play the game than I think aren't aren't you on his coaching staff? No, I got fired. Yeah Laughing at me Hank you realize that you have so much more free time to get good at this game than I do

Yeah, I like it. Let's do it like you have infinite amount of free time I the only time I play is when I'm streaming. I'm never gonna get good at this game than I do. Yeah, I like it. Let's do it. Like you have infinite amount of free time. The only time I play is when I'm streaming. I'm never gonna get good at this game. Let's do it. Hank doesn't have that much free time. Golf. Vacation. And we could just put,

we could put it in our hat of other punishments. Memes came up with it, I just thought. I'm down for that. I think it's the best one. I do think it's the best one for the viewers. Yes, for the viewers. I agree with that. For a live stream. For the viewers's it's the best one. I do think it's the best one for the viewers. Yes I agree with you. I'm sure that's yeah because I also it's I always like the streams We're like you just have to sleep on stream, right?

Sure, that's the fan like you do you want me to do Do you want if I lose Mount Rush rush season I have to do it in Madden because I I'm not playing man No, is that unfair advantage? It has to be causeful. I think you guys have as much time to play you have more time to play Yeah, I'll get grinding There we go come out of the golf time. I know there's a part of me that thinks you should go I have to go undefeated to no whoa no national team. You just restart the season. You know how hard Heisman is Heisman's very hard all-american is giving I can't win game. It You know how hard Heisman is? Heisman's very hard. All-American is giving, I can't win games.

It's insane how hard Heisman is. I might, this might, I may never get out of this. May never. Okay, I'm down for the punishment. Let's do it. Yeah, I think it will be a very good stream for the people. Okay, so we're doing the Mount Rushmore of breakfast food. Who's going first?

I believe I'm up first. I need a good Mount Rushmore. I sucked. Patrick Holmes was a cheeky pick. People were very upset. Which is good because Mount Rushmore people should get people feeling something. But I fucked up. This is going to get confusing. Oh, I think I know what your question is.

I think that there should be... I don't think you can I think you can pick Different variations. There's gonna be different eggs. Yeah Yes, there can be variations of those yeah, yes, yep, they just have to be specifically different Okay, so I'm up first yes, I'm going to go Waffles mmm love waffles mmm superior pancakes in every way mmm, and I won't complain I Used to be pancakes, but I think I'm Do you you can't really complain because there's so many more picks still on the board.

No, no. If you give your opinion, it gives up picks. Yeah, that's fair. All I'll say about waffles is I do think waffles have a significantly higher ceiling, but I think a bad waffle... Pancakes are hard to fuck up. A bad waffle is really bad. Right. I agree with that. It's a little more volatile, but the ceiling is way higher. But it's rare that you get a bad waffle, like pancakes are hard to fuck up. A bad waffle is really bad. I agree with that.

It's a little more volatile, but the ceiling is way higher. But it's rare that you get a bad waffle. Very rare. I've had maybe three instances in my life where I'm like, this is a bad waffle. Waffle's versatile, you can go sweet, you can do the whipped cream, you can do chocolate on there, you can do strawberries,

or you can go savory, put some chicken on there, even a little bit of hot sauce, maybe some syrup or honey on there. Waffles very versatile. I love a waffle. Agreed. The nooks and crannies make it. Okay. This is gonna be a tough draft. All right, I think this is going to be the second time I take this this summer. But I'll do a bacon, egg and cheese. OK, easy. Good pick. Breakfast. I know that it's not a sit down breakfast.

I mean, we're doing all breakfast bacon, egg and cheese. Yeah. I would have thought that was the no brainer one one. Yeah. Shut the fuck up. It is the go to. I don't really know when you can have a bad one. Bacon, egg, and cheese. I'm gonna have to throw this later. I'm gonna go, uh, similar.

Sausage, egg, and cheese. Mmm. Okay. That's kind of a cuck move, like taking the same thing, but you know that it's not as good. Agreed. Yeah. Yeah.

But we're not getting contentious today. Wait, are you saying that foreplay is better than sex Hank? Is that what that was an illusion to? No, okay. Are you talking about? All right seemed like you're being spicy with that I just said it I I can't agree with your points on okay gone to your head We take bacon and cheese or sausage and cheese sausage really yeah, I would take sausage too interesting I love um I'm gonna go. I love bacon. I'm gonna go. I love bacon. Me too. Oh. I'm gonna go pancakes. Okay. Pancakes for the table. Yep. Pancakes. Pancake house in Chicago. Greatest

pancakes I've ever had. Yeah. Like. That's the thing. It's a fluffy pancake that's just, oh. I'll tell you what. When we had to. I fucking love pancakes. When we had to eat all those pancakes on the livestream. Those were good. I didn't even mind it. Yeah. It's great. I crushed those pancakes. Blueberry. Those were good. I didn't even mind it. Yeah, I Crushed those pancakes Blueberry pancakes are I love blueberry pancakes. I like blueberry. I don't really like chocolate chip pancakes I think they're a little too much, but I agree with you. Yeah, I actually this is gonna be the one time We don't sound like the best people here. I think the chocolate chip pancakes are too much I like the sweetness to come from the syrup. I needed to come from the chalk

I like I like having one chocolate chip pancake Homemade chocolate chip pancakes are actually better than the ones they make in restaurants because they do too many chocolate chips. Yes Yeah, yes, what about banana pancakes? Yes. I like bananas on top. I don't like them in strawberries on top of my waffles Always good with cream breakfast is so good. It's the best. It's great. It's the best Now I will go a breakfast burrito. Mmm. That's strong one, too. Yeah, good pick a pick good pick French toast Mmm, okay Now what do you think about these places that get real cute with it?

They put like edible flowers and shit on there. They could that's a lot of places like I think a lot of restaurant breakfast places try and over complicate pancakes, waffles, French toast. Like you don't need that much shit on top. They and maybe some fresh fruit. They make it palatable for Instagram. Yeah. It's like, look, this flower on my French toast. I don't need the whipped cream. I don't need the the flowers. I don't need.

I just maybe whipped cream is good. Fruit, bananas, maybe some bacon on the side. I don't need the flowers. I don't need, I just, maybe some fruit, bananas, maybe some bacon on the side. Yeah, yeah, agreed. Little powdered sugar. When we go, I get a question. Okay. I don't wanna make it a thing. Like, can I do a specific order

or does it have to be just one by, I wanna take steak and eggs. I think that's fine. That's like a known breakfast meal. That's a close one. You tell me. There's an aunt. Okay, then I won't. I'm being very... I want to be as... I want to be very...

I'm trying to be fair too. Yeah, I'm being fair. I want to be fair. I want to be fair. Okay. I want to be as, I want to be very... I'm trying to be fair too. Yeah, I'm being fair. I want to be fair. I don't know, though, but that... I want to be as fair as fair as possible. Steak and eggs doesn't count. That's fine. No, that's fine. I have no problem with not doing steak and eggs. I just wanted to... Because it is like, you know, that's a breakfast thing.

I actually, I'm coming around on it. Because it's an order. It's a breakfast. It's an order, yeah. You don't get steak for breakfast, but you do get steak and eggs. Right, yes. And there's other things that are like that. Right, yeah.

That, yeah. Like there's a thing, there's another thing out there that will have multiple things in it that can be picked that I think has to be picked. Yes. OK, so are we allowing it? Hank was the only one who was doesn't mind that I think it's fine I never I live I'm gonna send that I'm gonna throw it in the full Okay, all right weren't there on it what no, I'm not he's not gonna you just said you were going to

That was they're cutting that Got it. He's gonna throw in the fourth like Patrick my homes I was, they're cutting that. Got it. He's going to throw in the fourth, like Patrick Mahomes. I am going to take- I really do. That was a bad pick by me, but I do think that we glossed over the fact that Hank didn't realize that humans are animals. Yeah, that's very true. Also- That part was, it was a bad pick. I hand up, bad pick, got a little cute. Hank did not know humans were animals. Yeah. Also, Mount Rushmore season, there used to be a ton of cute picks. Yeah. If you go back.

Yeah, we did. We've whittled it down. Yeah. So one cute pick stands out. I own it being a bad pick, but I think the shock that Hank had, I think there was probably some listeners too that didn't realize humans are animals.

You didn't know that? No. Okay. I'm impressed that you're live. Same. Same. Yeah. Good job. Maybe not.

I just have to get it off my chest. Again, bad pick. I own it, but yeah. Humans are animals. Okay. Okay. Next up, I'm going to go breakfast tacos. I think breakfast tacos are better than breakfast burritos.

Wow. Wow. Breakfast tacos are elite. They're my favorite. You can grab two of them. You can grab three. If you're hungry, you grab four. You're a sponsor. In Austin, you are correct. Yep. But the rest of the country, breakfast burrito is always better than a breakfast taco. I don't know the rest of the country.

Where have you had a good breakfast taco outside of Austin? I had a good breakfast taco here. Really good breakfast taco. I hadn't get good food anywhere. How many places have you had a good breakfast burrito? Everywhere. I also had a good breakfast burrito yesterday. Literally yesterday morning.

Yeah. I had a great breakfast taco. Breakfast tacos are good, but they're a treat for certain parts of the country. I like both. The only thing I'll say that sways me towards burrito is that as a spill guy, I like to not start my day off with a spill. So what I like about the breakfast taco is you can meter out your dipping sauce or your

salsa more accurately on a breakfast taco than you can a burrito where you have to go like sauce, bite, sauce, bite. Oh, I like the sauce bite though. Yeah, or you can get the sauce in there but you get a fresh bit of sauce in every bite What fresh sauce makes a difference? No, cuz then sometimes if you let it sit for a little bit it'll get a little like soggy like if you Not if you eat a breakfast taco, it's like three bites. Yeah. I yeah, I mean I like breakfast tacos I'm not I'm not okay. Well, you're the one you're the one who's coming at my pick I said, I liked your big rivalry. Here's the thing. I there has not been a pick that I wouldn't eat

Yeah, this that's really what it comes down to it's a strong draft. It's it's all things we want. Okay next up I'm gonna go with Hashbrowns. Hmm hash browns are so good when they're crispy thin Waffle house hash brown. Can I specify? Hash browns. Hash browns are so good. When they're crispy, thin. Waffle house hash browns. Can I specify? Waffle house hash browns?

Yeah. Waffle house hash browns. Smothered, covered, chunk diced, peppered. Okay. As your whole meal? You can, yeah, they make actually big hash browns. You can load them with meat and stuff too. And Hank, these are breakfast foods. It's not breakfast meal. Yeah, I- actually big hash browns. You can load them with meat and stuff too. And Hank, these are breakfast foods.

It's not breakfast meal. Yeah, I. As a category. It's FYI. I was hoping it would stick to me. It would stay to me. And I know people will be like, well, you can't really have a whole meal like that.

But donuts. Donuts are breakfast food. And they're delicious. And I love them. And I love donut day every Saturday nothing I mean it's still not it's a good pick oh whoa Max has got his fingers crossed what was that he's hoping the next one gets to him is that what I was Max you talk we're a podcast it's fine he's nervous you are you hoping something gets to you? I am hoping something do you care? Do you think doughnuts are is a bad pick doughnuts is a great pick is omelet

We were worried about Did you take omelet? I'm taking omelet. Love that you took on my bagel and cream cheese going All right, I thought you're gonna take meatballs Almost good pick I was talking about omelet. You obviously have a bunch of stuff in it Yeah, like that's that's what makes an omelet an omelet. That was kind of what I was saying with the state Yeah, I'm like we're gonna get to something that Bagel and cream cheese good bagel and cream cheese is just like a

standard Such a great way to start your morning. Not too much. Just I'm just so out out man to these foods and my Wall of shout out Pepsi Hey, they're a sponsor the food this isn't like super difficult though. It's breakfast everyone loves breakfast I know but I just I eat just to fill my stomach these guys eat for passion and love I was gonna say max would it be offensive if I took my last pick as a backup bagel? Because I would like a bagel.

Bagel's great. I did a backup bagel At home the other day like on a Sunday I literally just had a bagel and then went back and just got a half. It was like great. It's a good ratio It's my last one now, And I'll finish with Eggs Benedict. Yep, I had that on my list. Okay. That's another dish that sometimes gets cute with it. Yeah, but like a good-

I'm not a big Eggs Benedict guy. For me that's like a treat. Like if I'm going to like a brunch, and they're known for their Eggs Benedict, it always tastes good. How do you get your eggs? Aren't they just poached eggs? Yeah, po they have like they're known for their eggs Benedict. It always tastes good. How do you get your eggs? We aren't they just poached eggs. Yeah poached eggs. Oh on eggs. Oh you mean in general? Yeah, I thought you were asking on an on eggs been a they're they're usually poached, but you can like specify How do you guys get your eggs do it like like normal if you say two eggs?

Sorry, I'm scrambled. It's rambies raw. Really I go. Yeah over easy Decided a scrambled scrambe's raw really I go over. Yeah over easy Fried over easy with like a side of toast. Yeah, that's the difference between men and boys Right there. Yeah, I don't like over easy scrambled eggs Yeah, I like scrambled eggs. Sure. These are good. Yeah, it's more scrambe's And come sit next to my kids. I'll have some scrambled eggs Well, I eat a fucking over easy egg like a man. You probably just don't know how to make good scrambled eggs. I It's literally the easiest thing in the world no no no no I mean good

There's good scrambled eggs, and there's bad scrambled. Yeah, it's like Hotel continental breakfast Yeah, but that's because once I learned sitting out once I learned the Gordon Ramsay method of making scrambled eggs It what's Gordon. You just call everyone in the room a cunt. No, you got to get you got to constantly stir it constantly stir it. Yeah, you go add a little milk. You stir it all. No, no, no milk. Oh, I had a little butter. I had a little milk and cheese. Yeah, yeah, you can add a little bit of milk. So you do. It's like 15 seconds on the heat, then take it off 15 seconds while you're stirring off the heat.

Right. And then back on the heat, go back and forth. I had a little milk, they make it a little fluffier. Yeah. I don't like the milk. It's good. You should try it. You don't even notice it.

You just stir it in. Yeah. Okay. Hank, last pick. You're not happy with your draft. What do you have so far? He's got omelet, sausage, egg and cheese. Yep. Omelet. Yep. French toast. French toast. Yeah, that's a good. That's a great. Alright, I'll do it. I'll play it safe.

You know what I think the matter is here? You're not getting the votes because you're down. You're not confident in your. I don't care about the votes. No, I just I can when I hear these guys talk about food, I realize how outmatched I am. It's like you, you go and you know, you're a good D2 team and then you go play a D1 team and you're like, oh, these guys are just big hair fast. PFT likes to talk about food too. I love talking about food.

Yeah. Yeah. You just had tacos and burritos. I'll go bacon. Okay. Good pick. Okay. I-

Classic. I don't know if this is going to fuck me or not, but it feels like just an enormous omission Because when you think of breakfast you think of like Cereal yeah cereal. Yeah, I like I eat cereal every day. So I thought about cereal. It's a great breakfast food It's it's breakfast soup. Yeah, I mean I I know what this draft is Like we're obviously talking about about going to a diner, but when I think breakfast, cereal is what comes to mind. Cereal's better at night than the morning.

I don't know, I eat a shitload of cereal. Yeah, it's a very hot day. I eat a lot of cereal. It's just, it's steady and reliable. Yeah, so there have been many mornings where I've got the time, I can sit down and make myself a nice egg over easy I could even poach it do like a little side of hash browns or whatever and I look at the honey nut Cheerios in my cabinet

Yeah, and I'm just like honey nut Cheerios really can't be topped. Yeah, I feel like Cuz when I was writing out the list, I was like wait cereal. Yeah, cereal's a breakfast food. What the fuck You might have fucked yourself by accident though. Why? Because like how cereal shows up on the graphic. I don't know. I mean, it just is the most consistent breakfast food. But yeah, I might've fucked myself. Then Hank would be.

Yeah. That'd suck. You guys, the cereal I've been rocking recently, if you can find it, it's not at every single store. Peanut butter Chex. Oh, okay. Incredible. I love Chex. And peanut butter. And peanut butter. and it's so good. PFT. It's fucking you can't you know, it's good because it's not at every store. And then when you see it, you'll be like all sold out when I see a peanut butter checks in a store. Usually Target has it. I'll buy like five boxes. Yeah. And you know, cereal is good when there's types of cereals that your parents won't let you have yeah, because they're too good

Yeah, yeah, okay. All right my last one. This is my Maybe my favorite Item that you can purchase at a fast food restaurant in the entire world. Oh The Taco Bell breakfast crunch wrap. Mmm. It is so fucking good. See you could pick it is so good I want I'm gonna order one tomorrow so good It's it's elite. It's got eggs You can get sausage in there cheese some sort of weird sauce that they don't tell you about and then it's got hash browns inside And it's in the crotch good heck. They're good. Yeah. Thank you. All right. What do we miss?

I was gonna do beer until I That would have been like my homes. You would have gotten killed for it. Yeah, I should have done beer Yeah, I switched my last one to beer cereal You ever have beer eel? No, that always sounds gross Beer is I have a lot of it. It sounds cooler to say like I had beer eel Yeah, brown cinnamon sugar pop tarts. Yep. I popped out on their sausage gravy. Yep

Yeah, that was what I was thinking of when you said I was thinking biscuits and grits getting great That's why I was like you if you do steak and eggs, you got to be able to do biscuits. Yes. Yes cinnamon rolls sticky buns Banana bread zucchini bread McGriddle Pft, but honestly one of my favorite is when we had in Austin the migas. Yeah, migas. It's a breakfast. It's a very, well, it's not a taco.

It's like- Well, it comes with side tortillas and you scoop the migas into the tortillas. Oh, wait. I might be thinking, what are the ones where they're like the chips and you put the eggs? That was unbelievable. Those were so good. I've never, I haven't had it since, but I've been thinking about it. A little free tip to people out there.

You're making your own migas at home. You just make eggs, and then you crumble up. First you put cheese on top after it's done cooking. Then you crumble up some Flamin' Hot Cool Ranch Doritos on top, and then you're in heaven. And then thank me later. Chilaquiles, have you guys ever had that?

Yes, delicious. Chilaquiles, basically breakfast nachos. Yeah. I think that's good. I like home fries sometimes more than hash browns What's the difference? It's like the potatoes are not they're like chunks of oh no. No, thanks. Yeah with a little It's like if it's cooked correctly. It's like there's some onions and peppers and it's like kind of cooked crisply

I go to this one place I Don't want to say the location because I don't want to blow up the spot because it's that good. But the home fries are, the potatoes are cooked perfectly. What about just breakfast sausage in general? Yeah. I love breakfast sausage. Yeah. What else? Yeah. Banana bread was a big, oh muffins too. Blueberry muffin. Muffins are good. How do we feel about parfaits? I like parfaits love a part I feel like I'm in the minority. I

Don't know. I feel like people just look down at yogurt Yeah, I like I like oatmeal bananas and strawberries, but I don't think that's a sexy. Yeah, I love a good parfait with but you need the There's nothing worse than a parfait when you run out of granola I need the right ratio right because the granola makes it look like it's super healthy. And also the granola, like you get that crunch, you're not just eating like, just eating yogurt is very, it's kind of bleh. Yeah. But with the parfait and some fruit. Parfait is good, it's refreshing. Very refreshing. It's very light.

Like a good summer time. Body took a shower. How do we feel about like European breakfasts? Oh with the beans and beans on top? Yeah, we want to work for that British people eat. Here's the most fucked up thing about Great Britain besides the fact that they eat beans on toast They also make blood pudding for breakfast if you have a traditional English English breakfast It's this red disc that comes out and just filled with guts Yeah, and they they let it congeal into almost like a loaf English breakfast, it's this red disc that comes out and it's just filled with guts. Yeah. And they let it congeal into almost like a loaf, a loaf of blood.

I've had that before. I've had it. The black pudding. It's fine. I have a trusty thing that I know that is gross to most people that I have like a couple times a week, and that's like cottage cheese and blueberries for breakfast. I never got into cottage cheese.

I know that like I love it. I've been having it since I was like a kid and it's kind of gotten like a viral thing on like TikTok recently because it's very like it's very high in protein cottage cheese. Yeah. Yeah. I love it. I'll just do like a bowl of cottage cheese and blueberries. I love everything about cottage cheese, cheese except for how it tastes.

And I trust a lot of people like Max that I trust their food opinions. They love cottage cheese. It's like Radiohead for me. I respect everything about Radiohead. People that I know that have good taste in music really enjoy Radiohead. Just can't listen to it. I love Radiohead. I respect that.

I respect your love of Radiohead. Appreciate your respect. Appreciate your respect. Okay, anything else we missed? Huey, you got any? Huey, anything? Go ahead. No.

Okay, all right. I had one cheeky pick that I've learned my lesson that the AWLs don't want me to do Too crazy, but I think it's an elite breakfast cold slice of pizza So good. I think that would have played I'm gun-shy now. Yeah, but cold slice of pizza there. It's zero calorie Tastes great. Mm-hmm. Just put a little hot sauce on it. Yeah, it's great. I love I love having pizza for breakfast.

Do you wanna make a prediction on where you finish? I wouldn't say I'll be in the positives of the, it's Stableford. Yeah, scoring.

So I think I'll be positive, I forget what I was, I might've been positive six last time. I think I can get to positive double digits. Ooh, how's the game looking? Cause you golf a lot. I do, but I, we just got done. I did a like 200 city tour and so, uh, it was, so I haven't got to play a ton, but I've, I've sort of the last week or two weeks I've played pretty hard every day just to get ready for this. So it's, uh, it's okay. Yeah. But it's not, I mean, not anything crazy. Yeah. I mean, the good news is out here. Like

if you have a bad shot, it's not like, oh, there's Nate Bargatze like NFL starting quarterback. Yes. Get that you get that get a little leeway where as a comic, I think you do. I thought about that the other day. I was thinking, because it's like as a comic, you can, you're just funny. So you can do something that's, I mean, really, and you embarrass your family and then they're you're like hey I'm a fun guy though yeah that guy's a good guy yeah you should you should have like a colored handkerchief that you put like he's shank a shot you're like haha yeah

that's what my dad's out with me he's a magician so I have him just walk with me and then if people get distracted he's like like, Oh, pick a car. He goes and talks to the crowd. You cheat like yeah, drop a golf ball out and all comes out of nowhere. Yeah, wait. Is your dad caddying for you? Now my brother is okay. But he's out here. Your dad is very, very funny. He's he's does a lot of your shows and he's yeah, the best. Yeah, he is. Yeah. Yeah. You feel any pressure to be funny though on the golf course?

Like if you're paired up with like a random group, you don't have the expectation of an athlete. But yeah, yeah, you feel any pressure to be funny though on the golf course like if you're paired up with like a random group You don't have the expectation of an athlete, but yeah, we're Nate Bergata. He's got to crack us up all day Yeah, yeah, you were used to more when because you would be booked as a comic and You would know we would know you not saying that they all know me now But it's but earlier you get there and I mean these dudes are like Like they're you know, you're like, hey, I'm a comedian. And you, it's pretty hard to be funnier than those four guys that are best friends. Right. Yeah.

So you're, you know, you kind of like learn, you're like, yeah, I can't top, you guys have a history. Uh huh. Yeah. You don't know who I am. And it's, so it's hard to top it. And so then you just learn to kind of tell stories or something. You just try to talk about stuff. We were out yesterday. We were in a random foursome with Kyle Yushek.

He's a fullback in the NFL. But the other guys, they were close friends. And one guy, you could tell he spent this entire year reading like golf one liners, like semi dirty one liners to say after every type of miss shot possible. And this guy was just ready to go locked and loaded with them and no stand-up comedian can compete with that. You can't, you know, when someone's,

like you miss a putt and someone, there's a guy who says, it reminds me of my first teacher, my first grade teacher, Miss Reed. And we're like, and they're always funny. And like, even though you hear them a hundred times, when you tap the ball off the tee, that's the oldest, and you go, that's one, it's always always funny. And even though you hear them a hundred times, when you tap the ball off the tee, that's the oldest and you go, that's one.

It's always really funny. Yeah, it does. It does. And so it's tough to top them. Yeah, yeah. You could tell the funniest joke in the world and then Joe farts in Frank's backswing and that's... There's nothing that's going to beat that.

Yeah. Put that on an album and it's platinum. That's why golf videos are so big on social media. You know, y'all with foreplay and everything like it's, uh, it's so funny, dude. It's and golf is so specific that if you are into it and get it, it's so hard of a thing that it is the ball can, you know, I remember being at driving range with my buddy a long time ago and he is a driver and he swings and it just goes straight sideways and just hits the people. It's almost like something that's like well that's not even possible. Yeah. But golf is so beautiful. You're like you

can hit a ball. Yeah. Completely sideways maybe backwards. Yeah. There are infinite amounts of ways to screw up on the golf course. Yeah. Oh yeah. And what the videos that we've been seeing a lot recently is the honking the horn and the backswing. Yeah. You don't like it? I don't think it's I don't think you know comedy. Yeah, that's true. I don't think I do either. It is so funny. Yeah. I know it's like golf too much. Like we I like it but it's like but how quick does it you see two videos of it then you're like all right oh no no I have a dumb brain like I have a long-standing rule if you show me a puke video I'll cry laughing like there's something about it but yeah the honking and the

fad a few years ago where guys were hitting each other with golf carts we were very clear we didn't want that to happen but if you showed me a video of you hitting your friend with a golf cart, I will laugh. Yeah, because it's funny. Yeah, that that was a wild trip. I mean, full speed. Yeah, Dave put a bounty on rigs his head then. Oh, yeah, because they want to rigs was like, we can't be posting these on the bar stool account. Yeah. And Dave was like, if anyone hits rigs with a golf card, I'll give him 20 grand. It's probably a crime. but yeah, no, it's like the NFL You have your own bounty game we did which with a car you don't like the honking videos

I've seen it. I don't like I Don't know. I mean, it's like I get it. It's like just I think it's like you're like, all right I get it. That's fun. And then you just kind of moves on That's the hard part with social media and like the funny jokes is like it all is very funny but it's just this kind of funny moment and then it goes crazy and then it's like alright that's you know what's the next thing and then you're it's all about the guys reaction to that the honking is not the funny part it's the guy who gets so angry and like that's true throw a

club at the car yeah like I'll I'll just like, that was great. That was a peak of comedy. That's when you in some golf courses, you can tell, like when you see the courses where there's fights and all this stuff, it's like, those are some real deal public courses where you're like, yeah, dudes are in jeans. Yeah, do whatever you want.

Yeah, you're like, people are gonna fight. You don't hit into, like, unless you're prepared to fight another four men. I mean it's a war. It is. It's like Braveheart. It's like we're gonna just go four on four and run at each other. It's like you might not even know everybody in your foursome but if it's a fight you gotta it's Jets versus Sharks. You gotta go. I think you have to stay. Yeah. The hardest is when you get paired up with random. I watch I'll see some of those videos are funny where it just you they get stuck with some dude That's terrible because that that was the biggest fear of me for

Like yeah forever. I never you know one likes it No one likes you don't like to show up and you're just like you gotta play with this dude Yeah, go you're the guy slowing it down. You're the guys in the woods the whole time. That's my whole life Yeah, yeah, like that literally you're just good. I'm good. I'm good. You sure man. Well, you wanna we're look for it No, no, no, they start helping you look for it. You're like guys just please yeah, go to your ball I don't play your ball. Yeah, I don't want you in here. No, let's look for a second. We have time You just go to your ball, dude I want to live my life and not find it.

I got a good one for you that I had never heard on the golf course. So I caddied for a few holes for Blake Griffin this morning and he hit a shot. It was a terrible shot. Went all the way in the woods. The guy who was, it was a pro-am, the guy playing with us goes, that was a great shape of your shot. And I was like, he was complimenting him. It was like the shape of the shot was incredible, but it was like a terrible shot yeah so I think I'm gonna start saying that whenever someone has a bad shot just like great shape though yeah I don't know what that means we've been but it's like good swing or it's you know it's like curve a little yeah you committed to it I think it

means from like a guy thanks man thanks man yeah scientific you gotta read to you yeah three but yeah if you think about just like from physics it is impressive like, thanks, man. Thanks, man. Yeah, scientific. You gotta re-tie it. Yeah, right. You gotta re-tie it. But you commit it. But hey. Yeah. If you think about just from physics, it is impressive that he was able to make the ball spin so hard that it took that short of a turn.

It just went right into the woods. He's like, great shape. Yeah. I mean, a person that has never played golf can go make a ball spin. Like, it's really crazy. Yeah. It is.

Yeah. Yeah, so you talked about a random part. I think that's what kept me away from playing golf for so long, was just you have to play with, you have to go out there and meet a new friend you're gonna hang out with for four hours. I actually did try to play one time back in like 2012. I was like, I'll try golf.

I go out on the course and I'm so bad. And the guy that I'm with, after about eight holes, he's like, I'm just gonna, I'm gonna go home and we're gonna play 18. We're supposed to play 18. He was there for four hours. And he just said, you know what? I'm just gonna, I'm gonna go home and we're gonna play 18. We're supposed to play 18. He was there for four hours. And he just said, you know what? I'm done, I'm done for today.

And then I was like, well, now I'm just never gonna play golf again. It was such a miserable experience. I played in like a, I did one mid-am, like mid-am, I'm an eight handicap. I'm not- That's good. It's good, but it's not- I mean, you're talking to guys that are-

Very good. But I played in one mid-aim a while a long time He was saying it was during COVID and there's we played and so that's like a real tournament So you have to play, you know, you got to put everything in your it's rules It's like a PJ event but for Amateurs and so this guy's playing with us and we get to he's just playing horrible And then we get to the 10th hole and it's a part three,

he hits it in the water, then hits it in the sand, and then out of the bunker, gets into the water again, and comes back. So I mean, he's already pretty much done. And then right when we finish, he just takes his hat off, he goes, boys, I got a long drive ahead of me, I'm gonna get on out of here. He just shook her hand and just left the tournament.

So me and my friend say it all the time. We're like, boys, I got lung drive. He just bounced. Oh, no one. Yeah, I mean, he just looked it up and was like, dude, I'm gonna shoot 120. I'm like, I might as well just get beat traffic. There is no traffic is 40 of us out. Yeah,. It's dumb. But I did that. I famously, I like to fuck with the internet. And I'll put on the scorecard whatever I just feel like putting. I played like a month ago, and I think

my score was like minus 6 on the front 9, and I still shot a 92. And I was like, just tweeted, really got away from me in the back 9. Everyone's like, damn, dude, you shot a minus 6. So I went out and played Shinnecock, which was incredible. And I decided to just say I shot a 72 and everyone was like, holy shit. But when I was playing Shinnecock, I was so bad, I didn't want to

ruin everyone else's time. I just like didn't play half the holes. I just was like, you guys just shoot. Like I'll just walk with you. And that's the way it should be done. Like you do that where, because sometimes people play like a very nice course. And if they're not good and they're like, well, I want to put everything out and get a real score. You're like, we don't need to see your 150. Yeah, right. Right. Just just if your ball goes out of bounds, drop it where my is and write down your score from there. No

one's Yeah, you know, right down to 72. If you want. Yeah, like I did. Yeah, the FedEx cups not watching. Yeah, right. On a zero on holes that you didn't play. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The FedEx cup's not watching. Yeah, right. You're kind of zero on holes that you didn't play. Yeah. That counts. Yeah. You're not lying. Counts is, you got a zero.

Yeah. And then you get, you should get 48. Yeah, right. Exactly. I feel pretty good about myself. I feel pretty good. Genius scoring. Is there a guy that you're competing against this week?

Like, is there a guy that you really want to beat? Usually the comedians you want to do better than. Who else is out here? So Cable Guy, Ray Romano, Colin Jost. Okay, yeah, we gotta beat them. Yeah, and so usually the comics are the ones you kind of look at that you want to beat. I'm trying to think if there's, you know, I always do a game with Larry Fitzgerald, and so we'll do like a side game. And so, like his, he beat me I beat him and when he played AT&T

Purple Beach but he destroyed me here last year so so it's revenge so I got a yeah yeah so I'll come back I'll find him yeah he'll get a few games going yeah who's the best stand-up comedian golfer Santino oh yeah he might be he might be a I'm sure there's some there's a good court mccown is a another guy another comic and He's he caddied in PJ for a little bit And then Santino I want to say is Two to four rain. Yeah, he's good. He's he's yeah, he's he's I've played with him. He's real. He's legit worst

Stavi yeah Yeah I've never seen him play out of mad you know you gotta swing around all that. I know John Daly did it but he does it. I feel like everything his whole body just everything's in the front and it's all it's like too much front. No you see him in the back and you're like that guy's in shape and you look in the front you're like it's all there. He kept it all there. Because he kept it. He moved it up. Yeah. Yeah. The, uh, all right. So you had an incredible 2024. I know it's not over yet or 2023 into 2024, 200. Wait, you said you did a tour of 200 cities, uh, 200 shows, 200 shows. How many cities was like,

ah, I mean, 7,500? Yeah hundred eight right hundred fifty cities something So are you after such an incredible like last year, which I would imagine was the best year of your career Yeah, by far and are you like hitting the reset or you like strike while the iron's hot? I got it. I got to stay out there. I'm uh I'm gonna take a year off So I got like I probably have 20 shows left this year that are kind of sporadic, but the big bulk of the tour is done. And so I'll just do some fairs and casinos

and some stuff like that. Yeah. And I will be off until probably in for the U.S. I probably won't go back out again until June, July next year. So I'm talking about a year off. Yeah. So is that is that specifically? I'm always curious with this with with comics like your comedy especially is being a regular guy. Yeah. If you're on the road all the time, you're no longer a regular guy. So are you doing that intentionally? Like I have to just go back to live my life and I'll get new material. Absolutely. You

got to go home. You got to go hang out with your buddies that you know are not in this industry. And so I just go by. I mean that, you know, are not in this industry. And so I just go back. I mean, that, you know, and I'm from Nashville. I wanted to move back to Nashville. The big reason to be back in Nashville was to make sure I don't write like everybody else. Everybody, you know, your jokes can kind of, your point of view is different because you're just in a different position than everybody.

So it just sounds different. And so yeah, I'll go back and you know home and I There's a lot of stuff. I've got I'm doing but it's like it overall. It's like I'm trying to Get ready and get this new hour and get it figured out Yeah, have you found yourself has there ever been a moment where you like start a complaint? You're like god damn it Um, this is not me anymore. Like, you know, oh, it's like relating it to someone like, oh, it's like when they don't put this on your rider, like, you know, they don't put this in your green room

and you have to stop yourself and be like, shit, no one can relate to this. Yeah, no, yeah, I'm trying to think. I mean, I'm sure there, it's, yeah. Because it happens naturally, you just talk about your own life. Yeah, you're gonna have problems. It happens to us where, yeah.

Well, yeah, I try to be aware of that and not have problems. It happens to us where. Well, yeah, I tried to be aware of that and not have it. I used to do a joke about, uh, get, I think I did it somewhere, but getting recognized at the beginning, because people would always like they did, like I would take a picture with someone. But then once I take the picture with you, then then I have to then explain who I am to like 30 people. Yes. Cause people are like, what was that? Yeah. And I think I did this sometimes. But then one guy was at the airport and this one guy worked at the airport. He goes, well who are you? I go, I'm a comedian. He goes, is there any money in that? Like he would do it. Yeah. Like I'm a plumber and he's like how's that going?

Yeah. He go, yeah it's a good business now, man I think you should get it. I want to do that. Right now is the time. I just took a picture I had another golf tournament I did They were for my high school and it's the Nate Barghetti golf And this I'm sitting there and is the same golf cart these two guys in the same group one kid comes up And he was taking a picture me He's nervous. He's kind of shaking and I take a picture with him He's like we're just big fan whatever and then the guy in the next car comes up he goes so you still doing it I go. Yeah still bouncing around. He's at a golf tournament my name

The end where you come home and do a golf tournament like I what's over. The end is usually when your name is on a golf tournament. Yeah, right. Exactly. You're like, oh, he went, like basically like when Pablo Escobar goes back to Medellin or wherever he- And does the Pablo Escobar golf tournament? Yeah, no, but you're like, I'm going back to home. Like this is my crew here.

It's all I got left. Yeah. Like, you know, that analogy didn't really work for me. Well, no, it's also- I liked the fact that he had a golf term Yeah, you did. He it's a classic like end of a Inspirational movie. Yeah, right. You know, you finally accomplish your lifelong dream You had some tough times you make it and now you're at a point my own golf tournament. Yeah happily ever after

Yeah, I mean at least you get to say comedian because we always joke like there is no thing worse There's nothing worth worse in the world than when someone asks you what to do and you have to say I have a podcast Yeah, you feel like the biggest douchebag ever because that is something that everyone's like is there money in it? And they're actually asking like are you doing okay? Like do you need help? Yeah? Yeah, well, they do you full-time? You probably get like full-time. Yeah, it is my job What else do you do? What do you seriously? like full-time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It is my job. I'm like, what else do you do? What do you seriously do? Like, during the day. Yeah, you get, yeah.

People can't imagine making money outside of a traditional way sometimes. And so it's hard. Like, you'd be on a plane sometimes. A lot of comics would just make up a job. Just something to, because you know it's going to be like, what am I going to have to talk to this guy about? I did that a couple of weeks ago. Somebody asked me what I did. I said I bought a lot of Bitcoin

I just said I was a crypto bro And then I did not expect the follow-up question from that person about crypto and I was I had no idea what to tell them Yeah, that's a tough. That's what you gotta be real careful. Yeah lucky. You gotta pick a job that you had before Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Well, I got lucky easier answer Yeah, you got I got you know, but it's got in Yeah, my problem is when I when I feel like I don't want to say podcasts I just go to the previous job as blogger and I'm like, yeah, that's been around longer Like blogger is something that like oh, yeah, you're a blogger. That's yeah, that's almost like

Mainstream media at this point blogging. So yeah, I think so So I think blogging took over for... I don't think you hear the word blogging. No, not anymore. Yeah, I would be like, eww. Yeah, I mean, it doesn't feel good either way. Follow up with, why don't you try to start a podcast? Yeah, yeah, yeah, something else. You're like, yeah, maybe I'll give it a go.

Yeah, that's a good point. Yeah, I should podcast. Just never say influencer. Yeah, influencers, yeah, that might be the worst. Yeah, I should podcast. Just never say influencer. Yeah. At some point, like 10 years from now, do you think someone's gonna say influencer? They're like, oh, cool. Oh, it's yeah, that's a brutal one, dude. Yeah. Yeah. Because yeah, who are you influencing? Yeah. It's also, if you say that's your job description, you're basically calling all of your audience a bunch of marks. Yeah. You're like they'll do anything. I tell them to do. Yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah that and asking someone to come on your podcast also sucks

She's been like who yeah being like hey, can you come on my podcast? Oh, yeah, it's it's never feels good Yeah. Yeah. I mean you have a very successful podcast. I don't know. I mean, yeah, you don't yeah, I mean ours is Coming around no, it's good crazy. Yeah,, it's also, I love the vibe of it because it's your friends. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Which is how we, we don't have guests. That's we have four. And I've liked that because yeah, you don't have to, I didn't want to feel like I needed to invite buddies and make them feel like they have to come do it. And then if one of the guys is out, I'll just have like someone that I'm actually friends with. Right. So it's like a fun. Yeah. So it's a real authentic

thing and it doesn't feel like you're just like, I don't know how to talk to like some of these, a celebrity, you're like, I don't know, dude, I'm not, I don't know this person. Yeah. That's the agenda for the podcast. Who sets it? Yeah. Do you guys write that down? Yeah. They just, Brian Bates, who's on it, he usually will come up with a topic and then just look up stuff. And then we're just trying to talk It's kind of it. We always say it's a show like Seinfeld like show about nothing like yeah

So we're just like we just talked about sharks last week And then we just we're just trying to do jokes and get going and you know Just blow off watch that shark attack video No, I saw I mean I can't I I like kind of saw it cuz you could see like a leg or something And then I got well that changed quick Twitter Now is just the Twitter's getting Yeah, it's insane. It's insane. They're showing you stuff and you're a these streamers I don't why do I got to know speed?

Yeah, I'm speed. Yeah, I didn't really know what he's doing, but I don't really know but I mean it's Everywhere everywhere and like that dude was in like other countries he's getting mobbed and yeah and then I'm like what is happening yeah and it is where it makes you feel old when you're like dude there's a whole thing I don't even know yeah yeah anything about yeah it's a point you gotta be like I don't know if I have time to like fully understand yeah yeah and everybody goes to that as you're a you just go like I think I'm I think I'm kind of done. Yeah, I'm gonna opt out.

Yeah, you're like, and I just don't, yeah, y'all should do it, that's how I think. It's nice to every now and then just like willingly say, you know what, I'm not gonna learn about this. Yeah. And just let it go. Well, you can see it when kids, like even at an event like this,

the athletes they go up to, and like who they want, you know, versus like we see John Elway, you know. And then the other guys see Josh Allen, they see the younger, and that's like, and they can see John Elway and they're like, I don't even know, this is just an old man. And then their dad's like, oh, you don't know who he is.

You don't understand. But yeah, Twitter is like, I think it's just rotting all of our brains, because I'll go on and like, oh, here's a person getting hit by a bus. Here's a person on fire I saw another one where is just a guy who had a picture of his heroin that he was about to do before he started A stream and I was like what is going on? It's a you shouldn't be Desensitized to all that stuff. Yeah, cuz it's you shouldn't be seeing it

And then if you happen to see something in real life Like you just then or don't care that you You have to opt into it when we were growing up You'd have to go to those like there were like weird websites that everybody had one friend that knew like faces the grossest web Com rotten like I don't want to go to Ricky's house He's gonna make me look at live leak all night e bombs world bombs world Yeah, but now it's like you you go on, you watch the video and then the next one that auto plays it's like here's Ukraine.

Here's a drone attacking a Russian. Yeah, you liked watching this guy die? Well, we've got more death videos for you. You watch like a half court shot and then they're like, here's a family dying. And then Twitter's like, what are you into? Like, we go, we're trying to get, like what are you into? Like, we go, we're trying to get a feel free, you're like, I don't think I'm that,

I don't think I'm that big of a scale. Yeah. I think I would like it tightened up a little bit. Yeah. Pretty bad cat videos, just some cute puppies running around everywhere. Yeah. But the worst is I know when I click on it,

like my fascination is there. So like the shark video, I saw the woman's leg, it was horrific. I clicked on it, and after I clicked on it, I was like, video, I saw the woman's leg. It was horrific. I clicked on it and after I clicked on it, I was like, shit, I know the algorithm just got me. I'm going to see a lot of legs fall off soon. Like that's coming. Yeah, I try to flick that up to see if I can get the algorithm off me. Yeah, right. Yeah, shake the algorithm.

Shake the algorithm. Like you're just like, no, no. And then you start, I feel like you see it start coming down. It's pretty weird. It's pretty, yeah. It's crazy to watch. It's crazy to watch. It's's crazy algorithm to though. I think you're on the right track Like if you go on Instagram, you just like enough dog posts. Yeah, you know the for you page is just cute puppy Oh, yeah, mine's all just big titties and like like cheeseburgers. Yeah. Yeah, I've got it. I've got it locked down Let's go together. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. All right. So what's are you so so you're not gonna tour for a while You got a show in the works I have a few things

So I if they come out there come out you're at hear about them before this year's up Okay, so there's a so I you know, you never know what's going to happen But so yeah, I've got a few things like, you know trying to write a movie and oh Yeah, things and so we're trying to you know roll into some other stuff so that's awesome yeah my office special come out at the end of the year and then um all that that's so are you gonna act in the movie are you writing for yourself yeah yeah yeah oh yeah is your dad gonna act yeah i mean i'll give him a pardon yeah he'll be mad if you don't yeah love it what's it about what's the movie about uh well we just just started, we're working on the deal.

It's like I'm just riding over the ride. It's just, I don't know, just like, my movies are all going to be PG and they're going to, it's like I'm just, because I'm clean and everybody go do whatever you want to go do. I'm just doing my little thing over here. And so it's like, I'm just kind of do that. I miss a lot of those old movies like Home Alone and oh yeah like Uncle Buck and all these kind of stuff that was like very fun and like you know just trying to see even get that stuff going. Uncle Buck is the best. Yeah, Uncle Buck's the best.

I got a dumb question do you because you are a clean comic do you ever think about swears? I don't know. Like are you thinking about the F word right now? No, blocked it out. I blocked it out of my head right there. I gotta force, I gotta force field around my brain and they won't get in. No, yeah, I mean, yeah, I'm not better than anybody. It's, I just don't do it on stuff and try to just not do it. There's enough doing it, there's enough comics that do it and they're all the best and they're funny and all that. So I just- You should flip it.

You should become like the vegetarian of swear words and be like, I am better than you. Like, do you know that saying this many swear words will take 10 years off your life? Yeah, take it real hard and go, I look down on you. I look, I feel, I will pray for y'all right past that camera. Yeah. Do you know how many baby

cows had to die for you to say fuck? Yeah. Like think about that. Yeah, just start judging everyone. Yeah, it's not a bad way to go. Yeah. Did you ever, was there like a year where you swore? Did you try it and not like it? Yeah, bad for me. No, yeah, I've, I've swore. I'm not perfect, but I'm not, you know, I've

done, I've made a ton of mistakes. I used to drink, I used to do all this, but it's, it's, I just never, but on stage there was a couple that, I think I have a couple things where I like said a couple curse words and I'm just disappointed that I did it now. I just didn't do it. I did a lot of it because I grew up in the south, like southern Christian home. I wasn't allowed to watch any of this stuff and all this. So I didn't because I never wondered my parents. I felt bad if my parents would see me do comedy and I was being dirty.

So I just started doing that and now with comedy there's not that many clean comedians and this is just the way I think now and the way I kind of write. So I'm just going down this lane and then you know and there's just not a ton of right clean guys out there. The times that you did do it you'd probably look back on be disappointed that you allowed yourself to like be pushed into doing that because Maybe you thought it was yeah I mean sometimes you hang out with comics and stuff like it can get you know It's it'd be like if you hanging out like army buddies or cops or but you know where it can get like you know You sound like a maniac and then you got to go back to reality where you're like you got to calm it down

Stop talking like that. Yeah, and so But you know, it's like I mean, I don't know if disappointed, like I'm not, you know, I, I'm trying the whole point of when I was clean is I didn't want anybody to even notice it. And that was the thing. And he was just like, I'm just doing my little thing. And like, uh, if you notice great, if you don't bet great, you know, and then you just go from there. No, I've seen you live a couple of times and it's, you know, and you just go from there. No, I've seen you live a couple times and it's, you just sit there and you're like,

this guy is just incredible on stage. It's never even popped in my head. Yeah. Yeah, that's the, yeah, that's the goal of it. And when it helps me with like, if I'm not going to talk about sex, you know, it's like, well, then that's a huge chunk that I can't talk about. So then it makes you talk about other stuff that's either my family or all this other stuff. But I mean, the comics, I mean, I watched, you know, all the comics, Bill Burr was a huge influence on me. Cause I was in New York and I watched him,

really like a lot of, I mean, he was probably 10 years in when I first saw him, but then I saw him, I kinda take off, so like Burr was like a giant influence on me, and I would take the influences, I would get David Tell, David Tell's another one that's like, I mean he's the, I think the best ever, and then he's just the funniest, he's the guy, if I had to buy a ticket for any comedian,

I would buy a ticket for David Tell, and if, but watching them, you would just take stuff that you learned from them, and then I would just put it I just wouldn't I would do it my way Yeah, but I would take their advice their you know stuff that you learn from them and see what they do and then just go from there Yeah, there's a couple different types of stand-up comedians ones that will actually take somebody who wants to learn and help them learn And then some comics that just don't want to help anybody. Yeah, usually young. I think it's young. When people get stuff young, that's a big problem. It's like, and you either, I always have a saying, I would always, or I joke and say,

you either make it at 20 or 40 and no one makes it in the middle. And so it's like, you basically either come out of the gate and you're like, boom, gone, or you're going to grind it out for the whole time. And then, and you know, I was one that got, and you're gonna grind it out for the whole time and then and you know, I was one that Got and you're trying the whole time in your 20s, but then you know what it takes 20 years Yeah, and then and when it does you're like, I'm glad it does cuz I I can sit in my career and I like have an act and you just feel like you have more like, you know, you're not as like Nothing can just come out and take you under like you're not as like nothing can just come out and take you under like you're not built on stilts or what's that saying?

Yeah it's also I mean it's a fucked up thing that we do as just human beings where it's like if someone gets success at 20 everyone's like god damn it he doesn't deserve that. When someone gets success at 40 we're like man he really he he did it all the right way and grind it. It's like yeah, well they get you know, it's yeah It's hard. It's hard when you see it and it's hard for My buddy Julian McCall used to have a joke where about Britney Spears where he's like if you gave me a million dollars when I was 18, I'd be dead. Yeah, like and it's so it's like that's what happens Like you got like a Justin Bieber you're like, yeah

You're giving these kids and they become more powerful than their parents. Yeah, they have so much money. And it's a dynamic that's just like, yeah, you're lucky that it's not this person is not, you know, there seems like a fine person. I don't know at all. But LeBron James, LeBron James should be, I mean, on another planet. And that guy, he was 16. Yeah. I never judge anyone. Like when we get to talk to a lot of celebrities and athletes, anyone I meet that has been famous when they were like in their teenage years, because like maybe they were going to be the first round pick. Everyone knew when they were 16.

It's like, I don't judge who you are because your life is just so different. So different. And your experiences are so different that no one in the world can relate outside of like a handful of people. The only thing I would for the if the ones that do it, they're they need to be at least have awareness. Yeah, you are getting that's because that's where it goes wrong is when they they don't have the awareness that they're they think their life is kind of

everybody's life. Right. And so they just are like, yeah, I'll just and that's when they start telling you how to vote and start doing all this stuff. And you're like, dude, you don't follow any of this stuff. Like you don't do, it's like, just stay out of it. So I have awareness that you're like, yeah, yeah. My life is insane. So I'm not gonna tell you how to go live your life

because I don't even, I've never had any of them. I've never had millions of dollars from the get-go Yeah I mean I think we've done a good job with that on this show and that we try not to delve into stuff that like people don't Want us to hear us preach about anything. Yeah, I think you're on Like, you know important topics they come to us for us to be dumb and laugh about sports I would feel so like weird to try to tell someone how to that's why y'all built to what you have been built to is

because people can come here as a Distraction they don't need you right tell them how to run their life And you know they don't you know the the dad that's picking his kids up and the mom and the single mom and all the all the situations They don't need to be told they're like your job is entertain them, have fun, and then you go about your day. But if you want to do that stuff, then fluid stuff, then go, you got to dive into it. You got to be all in.

You got to be all in. You got to know what you're talking about. Yeah, yeah, you got to go like- You know what they're talking about, that it's like, why is this person thinks they're more important than me and they actually don't know what they're talking about. That will drive you insane. Yeah, people are very smart. I think people

underestimate like an audience, the audiences yeah they're the smartest people in the world. Way smarter than us. Yeah and so you just you know you're like I'm here to be a distraction and you know I don't want to be telling anybody anything. Yeah yeah what's your distraction now? Politics. The Middle East. Guys saying that, I do think we have a big problem with. Out golf, you know, that kind of is. I mean, it's hard to have a distraction. I have a lot of things that I want to do. And so I'm, you know, I think about that a lot and so it's like I'm just kind of rolling and

So I think I have a big appetite so it's like I you know, it's like I just want to keep things Moving forward so, you know, I watched a lot of old movies Like just dumb old movies like like no like 90s. Oh, okay. Yeah Like yeah, I hate when people like I watch this like black and white film from 1940s I watched the cuckoo nests that's yeah I bailed have like but I bet it's great I bet it's unbelievable I didn't know on it I just got then I got tired and I haven't gone back to it I but I was trying to be better at watching these movies

that are the greatest thing ever, but it was a lot. Yeah, I mean, it was, but I, maybe I'll go back and watch. What 90s movie? And then I was, you know what, I was actually, did I talk about this last? I was annoyed because I bought it. And then it was on Netflix. Did I talk about it, y'all, with that?

No, but yeah, that does. I bought it. Yeah, I bought it. And then the next day I saw those on Netflix and I'm just so annoyed that it sits there yep and I'm like I didn't and why didn't I just watch it on yeah yeah so I have a bad taste can you get a refund if you if you bought a movie no I don't think so my wife gets mad because I'll buy them instead of renting them and she's like

you're not gonna watch this again I'm like, but what if I really like it? Yeah, she's like and I've never really liked a movie to rewatch it like that But she's like just stop buying it. Just rent it. Yeah It's like I need to buy it when you buy a movie now, you don't even get anything No, like it should get something when you buy a movie you used to have the VHS of the DVD Yeah, put on your wall then it becomes like a piece of art in your house. It's like yeah, I bought diehard 2 Like it lives inside your television. Yeah, I don't remember which app I bought it on. Yeah Yeah, we these I know some guys that do DVDs and they keep DVDs That's kind of like that cuz it's I went to we were at a show and out they had a flea market like out Front so we walked around and you see you're looking through all those DVDs and like you're

Seeing the cover and all that stuff and you're like getting to read them and it's like that is pretty fun Like yeah, you know because you can scroll on Netflix or whatever and you're just like you're never gonna find something Yeah, but that you're like kind of like You only have this many choices. You don't need too many choices. Yeah, like I needed to be like a limit Yeah, I'm gonna watch saving private Ryan again. Yeah, that's pretty much Yeah, or for skump. Yeah, it's always always felt like Tom Hanks DVDs Yeah, I watch a lot of I did equalizer a bunch I like watching moves that I've already seen cuz then you can kind of zone out and but being in like enough distraction training day

That's a good one for that They made equalizer too, which doesn't make any sense mathematically. After the first one, it's already equalized. He did a bad job equalizing. Well then they did it again. A third time? Yeah. Does it equalize a three?

Yeah. You should be the action star. That's what it's all going on. I got to lose some weight. I'm a mess right now. You got to bulk up. You got to do steroids and then have like People Magazine magazine say find out Nate Bargatze's Tips to dieting and it's like he drank orange juice

Okay, let's wrap up. We got FAQs. Memes. Hank. Hank. Memes found him. Hank reads them. FAQ, what is the average time of night

you all finish recording each show? Oh. It depends wildly on what season it is. And what day it is. I would say football season. What do you think the average is though? Okay, so. You're around. Well, here, you're math guy. Yep. Football season, I would say football. Do you think the averages though? Okay around well help here your math guy. Yep

Football season I would say I think it's day dependent. Yeah. No, I'm saying Tuesday's at 4 we're done Thursday's at 1130 I was gonna say later. Well, I was gonna say no not with Central Time in the I feel like we're out of here past midnight a lot on Thursday. No, because... The thing about the... Thursday Night Football... During the off season we don't do super late.

Yeah. The thing about the average. I know, we're getting through it. We're working through it. We're working through it. We're showing our work. But I think Thursday Night Football, because it starts at 7, so usually we're recording the first 10 minutes.

What we do on the football season, this is probably very boring for everyone, is Tuesdays we'll just record in the afternoon. It's our one day that we can record early. Thursdays we'll record the majority of the show in the afternoon and then we'll record the first 10 minutes after Thursday night football. And then Sundays, the bear of a day because we don't start recording until Sunday Night Football probably halftime and usually we don't leave till like 12 30 and then the guys shout out the boys in the booth because Max memes pug Shane they don't leave till like four or five yeah that's the better question what time do you guys usually leave on a Sunday night in October depends on how early we start recording. If we start at halftime of Sunday football.

We're done at midnight. Central time has helped. Yeah, central time has helped. I've gotten like when we were in New York, I've gotten back at like 8 a.m. Oh, but we used to do Hoboken. It was it was a race to get it out before people woke up. Yeah, like we wouldn't be sometimes we would put it out at seven o'clock out before people woke up. Yeah. Sometimes we'd put it out at 7 o'clock

and we'd still be uploading it. And people would be like, what the hell? Where's the show? Where's the show? And it would just. Shout out. That's really it. It's not about this side of the glass.

It's about that side of the glass. There are only like three, I'd say, right? And then, yeah, it's dependent on season. Because it's like spring, like NBA an NBA playoffs will record a little bit We've gotten a lot better where we used to just do the full show and like late at night Now we do the majority of the show and then if like there's an NBA game We're watching we'll just do the first 10 minutes the show so people have whatever happened. Yeah Better same with NHL NBA season

It's always weird because sometimes the game that everybody cares about is the last game. Right. And so then we'll have to say up a little bit later. College basketball, the NCAA tournament a little bit later on that, especially on that Friday, that Thursday night show going on Friday. But yeah, I would say the average Hank, to answer your question, I would say we average finish recording at like seven. Yeah. And the big takeaway here is memes, Max, Pug, Shane, those are the heroes. Yeah. Those are the guys. You having kids change the game too.

What do you mean? We've been doing a little earlier. Yeah. It's been earlier on. It's nicer. The thing is our average is probably we are out of here at seven. Yeah, it's been earlier on. Nicer. The thing is, our average is probably we are out of here at 7, me, Big Ken, Hank. But I don't think we ever actually finished recording a show at 7. Yeah, and we have, yeah, you're right.

Because I try to get home by like 4.30 every day so I can be with my kids. I know there's some people out there who think I literally never see my kids. But I do, what did you guys say? Like once or twice a week, I don't go home or like can't go home. Like tonight I'm not going to go home, but pretty much every day I'm out of here by 430. Why does the logo of the show have a cartoon of Big Cap but the other guy isn't PFT?

That's a good question. Good question. Fair question. Are you new here? So I think, I think this person, um, hasn't seen my social profile, but it's the picture of that guy. And it's a guy in the stands and he's cheering. And it was during like a week to preseason game. We figured out what preseason game it was,

and it was the Seahawks and the Titans. And we put our best guy on the case to find, uh, the actual screenshot of when I found this guy. Cause it was the Seahawks and the Titans and we put our best guy on the case to find the actual screenshot of when I found this guy because it was back in 2010 and I was starting a Twitter account. I was like, what would an average NFL commenter look like? I was like, that's, this is the guy right here. This is a hundred percent the dude. So we tried to look them up later to go back to that game from 2010. Find the exact screenshot and our best man, Billy football,

kind of just didn't do it. So we never found that out. But maybe I don't know. Is that it? Should we put Huey on the case? Yeah, he won't find anything, but we can do it. Huey, can you just spend like an hour trying to find it? OK, if you can find the broadcast of the 2010 Seahawks Titans preseason game

and find this guy in the stands and just give me like all the footage that they have of them. Yeah. That would be awesome. Huey, question for you, FAQ, how are you doing week in? Pretty good. Yeah. How's the internet treating you? It's good. Yeah. I don't know if it's award season around the corner and AWLs are just, you know, in a good mood trying to get an award here. But yeah, everyone's been pretty cool. Everyone's for the most, yeah. I want to apologize, Hugh.

We did a bad job your first episode. We probably asked you too many questions and you talked for like 20 minutes. And people were like, the show is just changing forever. Wait, what did you just say? No, it just ripped me. Because I was like, yeah. I didn't even think we ripped you.

We just asked you questions. Oh, yeah, they ripped you. I'm like, dude, this is the most I'm gonna ever probably talk, right? I'm like, I don't yeah And I understand it we overreact on on everyday things Yeah, they were like this guy's now talking for 30 minutes show I was like I tried to get in the weeds a little bit defending you. I was like dude. He's he's gonna talk Like an amount that's appropriate for where he's at. Yeah, you guys just had to give a little backstory of everything. It was like, yeah, I was good. I was good.

Yeah, I think people are getting comfortable with you. We still got to figure out that I like Huey. Someone said Curly. We can't keep changing him. We can't keep changing him. It's got to be Huey. It's got to be Huey. But I feel like he doesn't know his name yet.

He's like a dog. I'm like, fuck it, yeah. Yeah, he hasn't responded to his name yet. So I feel like we still't know his name yet. He's not he's not he's like a dog. Yeah Yeah, he hasn't responded to his name yet So I feel like we still have a second to change nobody in the office knows either because I get like three different names from I'll get whole Huey and Matthew so it's I mean I do like the idea of you as being you you did screw up We had a it will come out I don't know in a couple weeks Mason Plumlee came by to give us a basketball lesson That was the perfect time to introduce yourself as Huey and see how it goes.

Yeah, that was my fault. Okay. You're going to have more chances on Grit Week. Yeah, it's going to be a lot of Hueys. I need to hear Hubert out of your mouth. I'll say them both. I'll say, I'll go back to a person and call myself Hubert. I'll go on, you know, same person, three different names.

See what they respond. Just be like, Hubert, but you can call me Huey. Yeah, Hubert, I go by. Yeah. Okay. Make sure, like,. Just be like Hubert, but you call me Huey. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I go by. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Make sure to make Matthew's, you know, my middle name.

That might be a little iffy with, you know, everything going on. What? Yeah. You know. What? The Trump shooter's middle name was Matthew. Oh, OK. I don't think anyone's made that connection.

I'm just saying. God forbid. Oh, actually. That was my first thought. God forbid. Now I'm thinking about it, too. Huey likes porn as well. Yeah. Oh, no. Oh, fuck. They released two people out of the about it too. He likes porn as well. Yeah

Oh, no, they were these two people out of the bunker that week. Oh, no boy That's a what okay Matthew. Yeah, everyone was watching for those slanted roofs. Yeah, Thomas Matthew Crooks right? Yeah. Yeah, I did not put that together either. All right Hank last one my questions for the boys in the booth max memes Shane pug Dear family and friends outside of bars will typically listen to the show and how often do they mention slash bring up things that happen on? the show Max

My mother listens to every show what's up? How we doing sorry sorry about the time when he said he had to do to fucking yep My girlfriend has never listened to the show. Okay, that's good.

Yeah, like my friends are like 70 to 30 No, really my friends are aware But like it's not like every second that they're yes, that's yeah some I have a couple friends I'm always more surprised when they bring it up. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah

I I had a moment with one of my good friends not too long after the show started where he was like hey I just want to let you know that I want to support your show, but it's just too fucking weird to hear your voice Yeah in my iPad. I completely understand that like if you know someone that well, and it's like yeah That would be weird.

He's like, and this, and I was just like, Oh, good to see you too. Yeah. Max got to hear you start bursting out laughing. He was like, Hey Ryan, what's up? And then
