Starting point is 00:00:29 You probably saw the story. It was an incredible one. He's fighting cancer and he was able to make it to the Purdue, Ohio State game, Die Hard Boilermaker and basically took down Urban Meyer himself.

Today is Friday, October 26th and please remember to change your clocks.
Starting point is 00:03:38 Yeah. That's this weekend, right? We think. It's actually next weekend but I want to get everyone ready and I was really excited for it this weekend. So I might just do it. I might live in my own time zone. I think we, yeah, we talked about doing that earlier this week, right?
Starting point is 00:03:50 Yeah, right. Yeah, live in your life on Coughlin Daylight Savings Time. But now we have it for next weekend when we're in LSU and very hungover. Good point. So remember, set your clocks forward an hour this weekend. Yeah. Yes, do it this weekend. Turn them forward.
Starting point is 00:04:02 And don't be upset at us. Okay. Also, PSA. Part of my take, PSA. Shout out, Megan Kelly. Yeah. No blackface. No blackface.
Starting point is 00:04:10 We don't want anybody out there doing blackface. It's anti-Nazi, anti-lisps, anti-blackface. You might want to clarify that second one. We're against people who are anti-lisps or pro-lisps. Yes. That has really fucked up that they made lisp such a hard word to say. It is. For people with lisp.
Starting point is 00:04:28 That is so brutal. Lisp. Yeah, it is. I thought I had a lisp there for a second. Yeah, I thought you did too. Anti-pro, blig-bordles, anti-blackface. Is there something else we're anti? I can't remember.
Starting point is 00:04:42 There's a lot of stuff that we've come out strongly against. Bad vibes. Bad vibes. So yeah, but don't do blackface. Don't even think about it. I don't care. No, stop. I can hear you out there.
Starting point is 00:04:52 I don't care how funny. But PFT, what about, but PFT, what if I want to do, but PFT. But I'm going as Rachel Dolezal, who is it, so it's not really blackface. I don't care. No. I don't care. I'm trying to help you here. Okay?
Starting point is 00:05:06 Yeah. Just don't do it. It's not Halloween season. It is the start Thursday was the start of 27 straight days with football. There's going to be a college game or an NFL game for 27 straight days and I am so excited. That is like the best feeling in the world to know that every night there's a little football waiting for you at home, maybe action, maybe fun belt, who knows, but it's waiting
Starting point is 00:05:31 for you and it's there and it's ready to go. Yes. Every single time you get home. 27 days until the next day with that. This is like guys version of syncing up on our periods together. Yeah. The moon is controlling football for the next 27. We're all going to be, you know what?
Starting point is 00:05:44 That's actually not a bad correlation. We're all going to be probably a little bit bloated from eating a lot of salty snacks. We're going to be irritable because we're going to be losing a lot of our bets. We're going to be bleeding out of various holes from doing drugs and such. And the other thing is 27 at the end of the 27th day is actually when college basketball tournaments start. Oh man. So, and then you get the daytime college basketball.
Starting point is 00:06:05 I feel bad for people that live before television. Yeah. Where do they look at? They probably just looked at a wall and imagined that there were sports going on. Advocacy. No, they had. Advocacy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:16 They just had math all the time. No, they all just had pictures of Jesus in their house and that was like, hey, come see my 36 inch Jesus. Yeah. I just got a new one. That's actually. I would go over to somebody's house and see a 36 inch Jesus. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:28 That's pretty impressive. Yeah. No, no shit. Oh, build down the street. He just got a 55 inch or his wife led him. I can't believe it. It's the whole fucking thing. You know what they did?
Starting point is 00:06:36 They just had fireplaces. Yeah. Because you can stare at a fireplace for a long time. Absolutely. Absolutely. Okay. So NFL week eight. It hurts to say week eight, but we're going to have fun.
Starting point is 00:06:46 It's Friday. Let's get loose. Next week is going to be the really scary week because that's when it's officially over halfway. Yes. Yes. Yeah. Don't.
Starting point is 00:06:56 Okay. Pause time. Everyone pause time really quick. One, two, three. Pause. Enjoy the moment. Football is here. Just stop talking during the pause time.
Starting point is 00:07:04 One, two, three. Go. Okay. You'll think about that moment in like February. It was a great. You'll think about the moment. Yeah. We just paused at the exact, almost the exact halfway mark.
Starting point is 00:07:16 We shared that together. Yeah. And I'll never forget it. All right. So the rocket ship. What a performance. Yeah. I mean, I love them.
Starting point is 00:07:25 Yes. He, listen, he had a couple of overthrows. Yes. He threw one backwards. That somehow wasn't a fumble. That was smart. That was a smart move. He knows the rule book more than anybody else.
Starting point is 00:07:33 So he knew that if he, if he like flailed his arms wildly and accidentally threw the ball five yards backwards, then it would actually count as him trying to bring it back into his body. Yes. So good move on his. Terrible rule. Yeah. Bad, awful rule.
Starting point is 00:07:48 The common sense should prevail there. He threw it backwards. That should be a fumble. He also had his classic rocket ship interception where he threw the ball where there was no receiver even close. And it was a perfect strike right to the linebackers. Such a catchable ball. Yes.
Starting point is 00:08:04 It's like, that is such a perfect rocket ship throw. Yeah. It was good. He also had an assist. Yes. So I don't know if Ryan Tannehill has ever had an assist, but Brock threw a pass to Danny Amondola who then threw the touchdown pass. Yes.
Starting point is 00:08:15 A little Philly special going on. He gets a point. He gets a point out of that. So yeah. I mean, he really, if we're doing our three stars of the night, I think Brock's got me number one. Yeah. And we saw Brandon Whedon for a second.
Starting point is 00:08:24 He, he knelt the ball at the end of the first half. Improved his career yards per carry. I really wish he had just said, fuck it. Just tried to run one. Oh, I bet if it was Kyle Horton, you know he would have. Yeah, he would have. But it was, it was actually an enjoyable game. And I think the Texans are officially back because they've gone five games in a row now
Starting point is 00:08:42 that they've won. Well, here's the thing. We put the Dunch chain. I think they were the first team that I Dunch chained. Yikes. It was for the moment. Now I'm going to pull a little kid, a kid to leave to leave FT here and I'm going to snatch the Dunch chain.
Starting point is 00:08:54 No, I'm chain snatching. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, sir, do not because listen, spin zone, as long as they don't win the Super Bowl. We were right. They might win the Super Bowl. No, they're not going to win the Super Bowl. Guaranteed. I'll cut off a pinky.
Starting point is 00:09:07 Okay. Here we go. We got that one. God fucking dammit. What did I just say? Yeah. What did you just say? Well, half of a pink.
Starting point is 00:09:15 No, no, no, no. It's half a pinky. No, no, no, no. I have horseshit. I'm cut off half a pinky. Nope. I'm cut off half. I'm cut off the top of my nub.
Starting point is 00:09:23 You're going to do top half of my pinky. You're going to act like the Minnesota Vikings long snapper. Yeah. We'll go looking forward. Oh yeah. Yeah. Like those fish in the salons that eat from here. You can't have any.
Starting point is 00:09:32 Yeah, right. I'll cut off the nail and I'll have a nub. I heard that he was going to cut his pinky off. I'll have a nub. You didn't even eat shit, so. I did eat shit. Yeah, no one really saw. Hank was there.
Starting point is 00:09:43 I saw. It was never on video. You refused to put it on video. It was on video. Yeah. Remember? You don't want to be kicked. You turned your back.
Starting point is 00:09:51 You don't want to be kicked. You turned your back. All right. So yeah. It's, yeah. See? So you admit it wasn't on video. I respect you so much.
Starting point is 00:09:59 I want to take it back. Do you think the Texans actually have a chance to do anything? Yeah. The Texans definitely have a chance to beat the Bengals in the playoffs. I'll put it that way. Yes. Okay. Now I'm getting nervous.
Starting point is 00:10:10 You know what I'll do is if they get to the Super Bowl, just put like an outrageous amount of money on them. So that way. And buy a new finger. If I win. Yeah. It's like not all bad. It's also an inspirational story.
Starting point is 00:10:20 If you lose a finger and then you continue to pod and blog. We will get so many people listening to this show. If I have to cut off my finger live on this show. Yeah. Your first blog back. Yeah. Minus a pinky. That's going to be, that should be nominated for an SB for the courage award.
Starting point is 00:10:33 Do you know what I'll do too? I'm going to even go one further. We'll have JJ watch. I'll be like, JJ, you just won the Super Bowl, bro. You have to come watch me cut off the tip of my pinky. Yeah. Okay. So this is now a thing.
Starting point is 00:10:44 So I guess, I guess now everybody is rooting for the Houston Texans. This is how fast things get out of control here because this was supposed to just be a fun Friday. Let's talk about the games and now I'm talking about cutting off the tip of my pinky. Yeah. Let's unpack this a little bit. How do you want, are you going to do it yourself? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:01 Are you going to, I don't think you're going to be able to do it yourself. This isn't 27 hours or whatever. Christian Bale on the prestige. Just put the cork in your mouth and just, I'll probably have a doctor come and do it. Hank spoilers. Jesus Christ. I'll probably have a doctor come and do it. Or actually, you know what?
Starting point is 00:11:13 Maybe I'll just have, remember the, or how about in reservoir dogs where they have the guy like tied down and they play stuck in the middle with you. Yeah. They cut his ear off. Yeah. You know what I'll do? You remember the, the, the, the cutters you had at the, at your office. Cigar cutter.
Starting point is 00:11:30 What the fuck are they called? Cigar cutter. No, no, no. They're the big cutter. Yeah. The big board. Yeah. The paper cutters.
Starting point is 00:11:38 So I'll just put my finger in that and it was like that. I was kind of hoping that you'd ask me to do it. No, I'd absolutely. Because you'll cut the whole fucking thing. I'm just trying to, I'm just trying to get the, I'm just trying to get a nice clean nub. 33 to one right now. You know what we do?
Starting point is 00:11:48 I got to put some money down. You just, you just want the nub cut off, right? Just a tip. Absolutely. From the, from the, uh, from the fingernail up. So we get Tim Tebow to do it. Yeah. We get Tim Tebow to circumcise your finger.
Starting point is 00:11:59 I want no. Yeah. You basically draw a line at the fingernail. Cut that. Yep. And then I'll just have a nice little fucking like, and I'll point it at people and they'll puke. It's like, don't you fucking come at me.
Starting point is 00:12:09 The JPP of podcasts. Yeah. If there's one guy that's absolutely qualified, it's Tim. I'm actually, I have my people reach out to him. You know what? I'm like, I'm already, I've already said goodbye to it. I don't even. What do you use your pinky for?
Starting point is 00:12:20 Actually, the tip, it would be bad ass to have the tip of my pinky and maybe, maybe it, when it heals, I'll put a tattoo on it so you can like stare at it like, Hey, stop looking at my nub. My eyes are up here. Yeah. I get you a prosthetic tip to your pinky. Okay. Let's do some games now that I've really just stepped in it.
Starting point is 00:12:38 Okay. Um, loser leaves town. Yeah. Loser leaves town game. I got an easy one. I've got an easy one too. Philly Jacksonville. Yes.
Starting point is 00:12:47 Okay. And it's actually for this game, since it's over in London, it's more just like, take away the loser's return passport. Yes. So this game, I'll, I'll say that this game will decide if like the loser of this game is done, right? Out of the playoffs. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:01 Maybe a done chain. Actually, the Eagles can still survive because the NFC East, they still might be able to survive. I looked at the R word schedule. You want me to run through it game by game, by game, by game, by game, by Francesca. The bottom line is the R words are going to go 10 and six minimum, maybe 11 and five. So this is easy loser leaves town. What is your, are we sure they're good game?
Starting point is 00:13:21 Are we sure they're good Seattle at Detroit? Hmm. Okay. I have Jets Bears, but I think both play. Both. Yeah. Yeah. So both will be a big, the winner of that game will walk away being like the whole
Starting point is 00:13:31 seasons in front of us, we're ready to go. The loser of those games are going to be down in the dumps and thinking, holy fuck, we're screwed. Yeah. I'm in. Okay. I actually think the Lions. The Lions could be okay.
Starting point is 00:13:45 Are we sure they're good? We're not sure they're bad. Well, we'll find out on Sunday. Yeah, we're sure they're good. Turn in to Dick Stockton and Mark Slarith. Seahawks Lions. My Fox. What about the game of the week?
Starting point is 00:13:56 Is it Minnesota, New Orleans for you to know Rams Packers? Okay. Yeah. There's two good, there's two games of the week. Here's whole games of the week. I listen, it's a first quarter of the week for Rams Packers because I get the feeling the Rams are going to go up on them like 30 to 10. I wish we could just flex this, switch this with the Patriots bills.
Starting point is 00:14:14 Yeah. Like that does not need to be on Monday night. Give us Rams Packers on Monday night. Yep. Here's the thing. Here's a little stat for you. Wait, is the Patriots bills in Buffalo? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:23 Okay. So there's a Buggermobile on the snow. Buggermobile's in trouble. No, we are not flexing that one. The Packers. Air Rogers. You just assume it's going to snow every game in Buffalo? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:32 Of course. That's how it works. It's either going to snow or you're going to get your dick sucked in the park garage because you gave away your Kiko Alonzo jersey. Yeah. Are you going to get hit with a dildo on the Buggermobile? One of the three. One of the three.
Starting point is 00:14:43 Yeah. The Packers. Nine and a half. That is the largest spread that Aaron Rodgers have ever been given as an underdog. That's a huge number for Aaron Rodgers. It is. And he's coming off a bye so that knee probably feeling a little better. Mike McCarthy has a little bit more time to figure out how to misuse all his wide receivers.
Starting point is 00:15:03 Are you thinking what I'm thinking? What? At the Coliseum. That's where Carson Wentz towards ACL last year. God forbid. Jesus. God forbid. God forbid.
Starting point is 00:15:13 I said God forbid. It's not going to happen. Okay. Real shame. By the way, Carson Wentz has an injury. He had nothing to do with the turf. He was literally in midair. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:15:21 But God forbid. God forbid. It's also the place where it happened though. Bad juju there. Bad juju. Okay. You want to do a few picks? Wait.
Starting point is 00:15:29 We also have our... Oh, rivalry game. No, rivalry is back on. Oh, the rivalry is back on again. Oh, that's Brown Steelers. Brown Steelers. Yes. And double revenge game in that one.
Starting point is 00:15:37 Todd Haley revenge game. And Joe Hayden revenge game. Mm. A little on both sides of the ball there. Yeah. That is nice. The rivalry is definitely back on. Here's a little fun stat.
Starting point is 00:15:46 Somebody told me that I didn't bother to fact check at all. Just lay it on me. So we'll have the PMT stats department take a look at it, Hank. Do it. There it is. Every Browns coach that is... The last five Browns coaches that have been fired have gotten fired after they played Pittsburgh. That doesn't sound right, but it sounds right enough.
Starting point is 00:16:04 It doesn't sound right, but it feels right. It sounds right enough. Like, sounds are right enough. Pittsburgh was the last team that they played against. Okay. We'll have somebody check that out. Yeah, whatever. That's cool enough.
Starting point is 00:16:15 Yeah, yeah. I like that stat. What's going on with Levy on Bell? Is he back? He's strodinger's back. No, he's back. He's strodinger's running back. He's back, but he's not back.
Starting point is 00:16:23 He said he was going to come back, but he's not back. He hasn't shown up to the facility, I don't think. So what's up? He hasn't practiced. What's up? Yeah. It sounds like you should ask that to Levy on Bell. Yo, Bell.
Starting point is 00:16:34 I don't understand it. I actually just thought of that today. Like, I just assumed that he was back because he said that he was going to be back. And then we just got lost in the shuffle. Yeah. I don't know. I have no idea what he's thinking. Because this doesn't count as a vested year.
Starting point is 00:16:46 Is it this week? No, it's week 10. It's week 10. So that's when he'll be back. Okay. Maybe. He's lost a lot of money this year. Yeah, he has.
Starting point is 00:16:54 Yes, he has. It's true. Checked out. Checked out. He's lost a lot of money. It's on NFL Reddit and that links to an ESPN article. Oh, wow. That's enough for me.
Starting point is 00:17:02 So without clicking the ESPN logo. There you go. Yep. All right. Let's get to fantasy fuck boys. Let's do it. All right. PFT you go.
Starting point is 00:17:11 Yo, what's up? This is Avery out of Naughty. I'm here to talk to you guys about my fantasy picks of the week. Make sure to win your game. This weekend, I'm starting the cheerleaders uniforms. This is probably the last year we're going to see them. But guess what? When they dress up like cartoon characters that my mom used to read me before bed every
Starting point is 00:17:27 night before she took my little tickets in. That gets me going, baby. That gets me all the way wrapped up. We know it's better than cheerleaders. Slutty cheerleaders. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:40 Yeah. Yeah. Twins. I don't know. I don't know how to look at porn. So I still got to stare down girls when they're on the sideline. My sip. Guess what?
Starting point is 00:17:48 I'm sitting this week. I'm sitting crying. That's right. That's right. Derek Carr. You're crying because you got a little booboo on your spine, your leg. Yeah. Sting on your wrist, on your ankle.
Starting point is 00:17:56 Whoa. I'm sorry. One time I jumped out of a moving car because I saw the McRib was back. All right. I got road rash. It wasn't that bad. All right. I just, I just washed it down with a couple of nice pickles.
Starting point is 00:18:06 Nice. The pickles. You love your pickles. You know what I'm saying? God, I do love them. You love them. Choking out those dills. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:18:14 Oh, my sleeper is James Winston. I'm sleeping James Winston. He's been looking over his shoulder with 50 chomping at the pit to take over. But now guess what? The FBI just announced the male bomber's packages originated in Florida. That's right. A bunch of easily interceptable, harmless bombs coming from Florida. Better interrogate this magic baby.
Starting point is 00:18:33 That's right. James is back. Okay. Go. Go. What's your name? My name is Mookie milkshakes. I'm back on out of the week.
Starting point is 00:18:41 My stardom is James White. He's been the most consistent offensive player for the Patriots this season. And he's going to be a huge part of the offense on a weekly basis going forward. Pelichek loves those white guys. From? The University of Wisconsin. My stardom is Mo Bamba. Do you have a hit song?
Starting point is 00:18:58 Do you have a hit song named after you? You got to be averaging more than five points a game. Oh, fuck that's true. That's weak shit. Get it together, Mo. That guy hit the jackpot, huh? Mo Bamba hasn't been working out for the... The magic.
Starting point is 00:19:10 The magic. He's still got a big wingspan though. Hey, my sleeper is SB Dunks. The hot shoe from the mid-2000s are back in a big way. You see a pant. Pick them up. Nice. You can't get into the club.
Starting point is 00:19:24 I like to go through wearing those though. All right. No white sneakers. God, this is Tony Mio. You might remember me from being a goalie, but it's not a goalie. I'm the fantasy fucking expert. My stardom, Todd Gurley. I gave you the stat earlier this week.
Starting point is 00:19:38 He's got seven more points and the entire Buffalo Pills offense. Well, guess what? He's got more scrimmage TDs than nine NFL teams. I'm starting to think this guy's fucking good. You're going to want to start him. Pick him up. He's still available in 77% of your leagues. Hey, Tony, why'd you let Pepeno score on you?
Starting point is 00:19:55 That one-nothing loss on the 4th of July. You unpatriotic communist fuck. Hey, good question. Here comes the next one, though. You better watch your fucking mouth because my cinnamon's bombs in the mail. Everyone knows that's a coward fucking move in our business. You shoot someone in the back of the head. You don't put it a bomb in the mail.
Starting point is 00:20:12 And I'm going to put a bomb in the mail for you, Avery. Just say it. Not saying I will. I'm just saying that I could. If you see him bringing that shit up. That's right. You better check your mail, Bob. I won't say it.
Starting point is 00:20:21 Yeah. You might put one in an Arribuco's restaurant and get the insurance money off of it. Get insurance money. No spoilers. You remember that, Hank? Yeah, I do. Yeah, that is good. Arribuco.
Starting point is 00:20:32 Tony kills him at the end of this season. I didn't know that. That's fucked up. That's fucked up. Okay, my sleeper. It's Starbucks Witches Brew. You guys seen this? Did he kill his wife?
Starting point is 00:20:41 No. No, he fucked his wife. Killed him. That's fucked up, too. I also made that up. I don't think so. It's white dog. It ain't Tony.
Starting point is 00:20:49 None of this stuff happened, Hank. All right, so Starbucks Witches Brew. You guys see this? It's a purple drink for witches. Lean. Be careful. Listen, if you don't believe in witches, I don't know what to fucking tell you. Little eye of new King Bridge in there, you know?
Starting point is 00:21:01 You're a little bit of a, you're a little bit of a scaredy cat if you think witches are coming to get you, but you're also kind of a coward if you don't think witches are real. You know, you can tell witches got me all twisted around right now. They're real. Listen, all I'm saying is I can't get an erection when a black cat's in the room. All I'm saying is I watched Roll Dolls Witches when I was seven years old and I had nightmares for the next six years of my life. True story.
Starting point is 00:21:22 Riding around on a broom. Who does that, all right? He was like a kid on a hobby horse. Purple eyeballs and no hair. Holy fucking shit. I'm scared right now. Did you guys actually see that movie? No, I didn't.
Starting point is 00:21:33 Oh my, I saw it when I was way too young. Yeah. Did you ever have those movies? I saw it as well when I was way too young. Like, someone should have stepped in and been like, nope, don't watch this movie because I was fucked up from that. Yeah. Roll Dolls Witches.
Starting point is 00:21:46 I saw Stand By Me when I was like nine and I was like, this is fucking cool. Kids get to fucking cuss. Yeah. And find dead bodies. Yeah. And then we had Sherry O'Connell back on. Yes, absolutely. The Brown Savior.

Okay, here we go.
Starting point is 00:23:33 Randy Koutour. Okay, we now welcome on a very special guest. He is a UFC Hall of Famer. He's here to talk about the professional fighters league. It is Randy Koutour. Thank you for joining us. Thank you. We just talked about the headphones fitting cauliflower ear.
Starting point is 00:23:51 Yep. Do you walk around knowing that everyone sees a cauliflower ear and they're like, don't fuck with that guy? I mean, you wonder. Some people, it's the first thing they notice. They're like, oh my God. It's a badge. It's what happened to you years.
Starting point is 00:24:05 Right, who don't fuck with me. And other people, they don't notice at all. They're like, oh my God, I never even realized that. Yeah, it's so weird. It's like a no trespassing sign for your fist. Well, yeah, there are certain countries where you go to the head of the line if you haven't. Your royalty. What countries are like Eastern Europe?
Starting point is 00:24:18 Bulgaria. Oh, yeah. Do you remember that? I think it was Kimbo Slice's first professional fight. He fought a guy that had some massive. Britt. Yeah, that's right. Thompson.
Starting point is 00:24:28 Exploded his ear. At what point does the ear just get so callous from being cauliflowered that it's impossible to explode? Well, like his, when it's fresh, like that, it's soft and squishy. It's a bruise, basically. Okay. But unlike a bruise on your leg, your arm, your body has trouble reabsorbing that fluid. So, you know, eventually it'll coagulate and get hard.
Starting point is 00:24:47 If you feel these now, they're. Can I touch it? They're like hard as a rock. They're there. It's like, wow, that is really hard. Shit. That's crazy. I didn't realize how hard that was.
Starting point is 00:24:56 The fluid coagulates basically. Thanks. Jealous. Damn. Everything about popping it. We have armor. I had it drained. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:05 I first got it and this one drained seven times, but I couldn't afford to sit out. I was in the middle of trying to make the all army wrestling team and if I'd have sat out, they'd have sent me back to my unit to keep wrestling every day. And every time you get your heart rate up, it fills back up with. It's interesting. You did come from a wrestling background, like a lot of fighters do. At what point did you realize that you could hold your own with your fists too? That was the first order of business was to get more depth at striking.
Starting point is 00:25:35 I'd never really been in a lot of fights throughout school or any of that, so getting used to having somebody try to punch me in the face and actually try to punch somebody else in the face was a strange thing and something I had to get used to. So the professional fighting league, that's what you're here talking about. Let's talk about that real quick. So what would tell everyone who, you know, I think MMA is obviously on the rise. It's been a big time story, kind of come into mainstream lot, lot to do with Conor McGregor. But what are you guys doing with the professional fighting?
Starting point is 00:26:07 Uh, well, it's a little bit different format there. They're running a mixed martial arts format. That's a lot more like professional sports. We have a regular season, 12 athletes in six weight classes. Those guys are going to compete twice in the regular season, depending on how they finish those fights, they're going to score points. The top eight from each weight class, the top eight point getters are going to move on to the post season.
Starting point is 00:26:34 In the post season, it's a single elimination progressive tournament. You got to win to move forward, just like the NFL or the NBA or anything else. So it's definitely run more like a sports league, a traditional sports league. And then we're just getting ready to have our, our third quarterfinal semifinals. The guys will fight twice in one night, two rounds in the quarterfinals, three rounds in the semifinals, obviously the semifinal winners advanced to the finale. The finale is going to be here at the Hulu Theater in Madison Square Garden on New Year's Eve.
Starting point is 00:27:08 And there will be a million dollars given to the winner in each of the six weight classes. So that's great. It's going to be, you know, pretty big carrot dangling out there. These guys have been getting after it, trying to score points and guarantee their spot in the, in the post season. And now we're, you know, kind of settling that fighting twice in one night. That's it. You haven't done that.
Starting point is 00:27:26 So it seems to me, and you can correct me if I'm wrong, that this is very much about the fighting and maybe a little less about the, you know, fight promotion and, and all the, you know, throwing trolleys at buses and all that stuff. Absolutely about the fighting. That's what I like about it. So meritocracy, you could talk all the snack you want to talk, but it's not going to get you any closer to that title. You've got to win fights.
Starting point is 00:27:48 What did you, as a UFC Hall of Famer, what did you, what was your take on the entire Habib, uh, McGregor fallout and, you know, the lead up and how everything kind of went down? It was found to happen sooner or later. Connor's been pushing the envelope with his antics, you know, throwing water bottles, grabbing people's belts, just generally being disrespectful at pressers and, and, you know, obviously culminated last year with a chuck and a hand truck through a bus window and cutting the couple of fighters and, you know, Khabib was on that bus and, and then roll into this
Starting point is 00:28:19 fight finally getting signed and him, you know, basically insulting Khabib's family and his culture and all kinds of things. He just, there's just several lines that got crossed. Yeah. So I'm surprised that Khabib waited till after the fight. I mean, in my mind, that wasn't the moment. If you were going to go off on this guy, do it at the presser, do it, you do it when the guy tries to kick you at the way ends.
Starting point is 00:28:42 But that's your moment. You just had almost a flawless performance and you, and you let them steal that moment away from you. That was your, the glory of the whole thing. It was a great fight. Yeah. Did you exactly what he needed to do. So I was kind of surprised that he let them get under his skin then and there and not
Starting point is 00:29:00 sooner. Did you ever have a moment leading up to a fight where a guy was kind of going over the line a few times with what he was saying about you or your family or anything like that? The only time that that ever happened was Tito and I knew when I signed up to fight Tito that that's how Tito was kind of the original bad boy, the guy that talks back and use that as a tool of marketing and psychological warfare, trying to get in your head. He wanted me to think about anything, but what I needed to think about to beat his ass. That's what that's what's going on.
Starting point is 00:29:29 Do you think he thought it through that far or was he just being a dick? Oh, Tito? Yeah. Oh, I absolutely think he was calculated. He knew exactly what he was doing and still does. That was his that's. And that's Connor. Connor knows what he's doing.
Starting point is 00:29:43 Connor knows. Connor's got a writer. Right. That's stuff he said did not get pulled out of his butt. He has somebody that does his research that's that's digging in and writing. Do you think that's too much? Do you think he like, do you think Dana White has a problem going forward with Connor, you know, going maybe too far?
Starting point is 00:29:58 Or is this just the fight game? I don't think Dana White cares as long as he's cashed and checked. Yeah. That was the funniest part about the entire pay-per-view was after when Dana White was like, this is a black eye on UFC and blah, blah, blah. It's like, no, it's probably probably going to, you know, lead to more money the next time. Run into a tunnel and throwing a hand truck through a bus wasn't a black eye on the sport.
Starting point is 00:30:17 Right. Right. I mean, he said that too at the time that it was a black eye on the sport, then they used it as promo for the lead up. Yeah. Yeah. So it feels like all that kind of stuff works to their favor. And I actually think it works to even, you know, your new leagues favor because.
Starting point is 00:30:31 Absolutely. All the MMA. First of all, there's another viable outlet for us to go and be professional athletes in this society, which in my opinion is a pretty huge deal. They treat the fighters well. The shows have been put on well. This format, everybody had questions about the format because we're asking these guys to fight over six weeks during the regular season and now fighting twice in one night
Starting point is 00:30:53 in the postseason. Yeah. That's a challenge, but fighters are up for that kind of challenge and they have responded at a 70% finish rate this season, which is pretty remarkable. That is. The fighters are getting after it. Yeah. So you used to fight multiple times in a day too, right?
Starting point is 00:31:08 Like at the start of the year. My very first event was UFC 13 and I fought twice that night. Yeah. How do you feel after getting into two fights in one night? Depends on how those fights went. Yeah. Sometimes you feel like you got ran over by a truck and other times you feel like, I could go again right now.
Starting point is 00:31:22 It's not a problem. Yeah. So if I'm ever thinking about doing some sort of, you know, strenuous physical activity, my goal is make it through that so I can eat a huge meal afterwards because I've earned a huge meal. But the shitty thing is if you get into two fights, you might have to like just drink a milkshake through straw afterwards. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:38 So that's an issue. But yeah, these guys are fighting twice in a night if they're successful. Going into that second fight, how do you deal with pain? Because I'm kind of a pussy. So if I had like a broken rib or a broken finger, something like that. Honestly, you rarely go into any fight, whether one fight in a night or not. You don't go to anyone a hundred percent. There's always a ding.
Starting point is 00:32:00 There's always something that's bothering you. A camp has got to be tough. And if it's not tough, then you're probably not going to fight very well on fight nights. You never walk into a fight a hundred percent anyway. But yeah, that can play in. Some guys only had 30 to 45 minutes before they had to fight again. Less time to cool down, less time for aches and pains and swelling and some of the other stuff to set in.
Starting point is 00:32:21 They could get their body warmed right back up and go back out there. Some guys had two hours. You're sitting around for two hours. Now you've got to get yourself back up, moving. If you've got a bruised shin, if you've hurt your foot, kicked an elbow, whatever, you got to get those body parts moving again and warmed up again. And that can be a challenge. That is one of the layers of the onion when you fight more than one.
Starting point is 00:32:42 Absolutely. Do you ever look back on something like UFC 13, your first professional fight and you're like, man, look how far this sport has come because it was kind of chaos. It was crazy. We did the weigh-ins in the lobby at the Holiday Inn in Augusta and that's the first time I'd ever seen any of the guys I was fighting was when we stepped on the scale. Were you ever on a Carly Butterbean? No.
Starting point is 00:33:06 That's a legend. Yeah, I know who he is. He'll knock you out. Knockout artist. Yeah. For sure. Can he stop a double leg? Probably not.
Starting point is 00:33:14 I don't know. Probably not. I don't know what that is. That sounds bad though. I don't want to get the double leg. He's got a low center of gravity though. But it's crazy to look at just how much of a growth the MMA community has had in the last 20, 25 years.
Starting point is 00:33:26 It's crazy how far you've had to come. Yeah. It's exploded. The first season of the Ultimate Fighter really changed the landscape for everybody. Yup. I remember watching it. The reality vehicle was a great vehicle to kind of break down everybody's misconceptions about us as fighters and what our sport was all about.
Starting point is 00:33:39 What is the biggest misconception? We were somehow all criminals and just wanted to beat people up. I remember going into meetings, movie meetings and stuff like that because none of us were really acting or doing any of that back then and there'd be that big, oh my God, you're one of those cage fighters, like I might jump across the table and try and beat them up or something. Right. Hell, my neighbor's a normal guy.
Starting point is 00:34:05 Right. You're just a regular guy who can beat the fuck out of everyone. Yeah. What is that like walking into any room and just knowing I could kick anyone's ass? You don't think like that though. I would. Did you walk into this room thinking that? That means you're the beta.
Starting point is 00:34:19 Because we'll start clearing the furniture here or what? Be honest. Did you look at us? Did you look at us and you're like, oh, I can take all these guys? Well, listen, I got good health insurance. All right. You like ambulance rides. How's yours?
Starting point is 00:34:28 How's yours? Got to ask you that. Okay. Did that size us up? As a fighter. I sized you up. Yeah. I was like, I don't want to fight this guy.
Starting point is 00:34:36 I decided that right away. Yeah. Made that decision. Like poke me in the eye with that ear. Huh? So you've been, you've finally a couple of different weight classes. Is going up more fun than going down? I started at heavyweight, came down to light heavyweight about halfway through my career
Starting point is 00:34:50 and then went back up to heavyweight and finished out at heavyweight. I was a small heavyweight, so I had to be a little more diligent about how I approached the bigger guys. I didn't have to cut a lot of weight to make 205, so that wasn't really an issue for me and fighting guys that were closer to my size was a lot nicer. Yeah. You know, we could just kind of let it hang out. So what would you do when you had to fight a bigger guy?
Starting point is 00:35:12 Like what was your approach when a guy, you know, had maybe 40, 50 pounds on you? Try to make those guys move as much as possible and make them work. If I could get close to the distance and attach myself to them and make them work and hang all over them and make them pommel and grapple and fight off the fence, then I felt like things were going my way. You want to stand around in front of a guy that's big and has power, you're probably going to, I mean, one mistake and you're going to go to sleep. So I always wonder this, what is more fun, knocking someone out or making someone tap?
Starting point is 00:35:48 I never had that one punch knockout. I think the Tim Sylvia fight was probably the closest that came. You know, I hit him in that first 25 seconds and he fell down. I was surprised as everybody else in the arena. I had a few submissions. That's like checkmate. Right. You know, it's just kinetic chess.
Starting point is 00:36:06 We're going to play a chess match. I like that, too. I play kinetic checkers. Yeah. I just like give you a wedgie and that's checkmate. What about the reverse getting, because like obviously when someone taps, there's the feeling like, oh, they kind of quit, but obviously not quitting. You're in a position you can't get out of.
Starting point is 00:36:25 We'll fight another day. Right. You know, you got to. Were you ever in a spot where you thought you were about to tap and then you got out? Like, oh man, I'm like, I'm out. So how does that thought process go down where you're like, I need to tap at this moment? You either feel yourself passing out or you feel your joint is about to get in. And that's, that's when you recognize that you're probably not going to get out.
Starting point is 00:36:49 Jesus Christ. Probably the closest for me was the Nogara fight when I fought Nogara and Portland. He had me in a couple submission holds that a lot of people probably wouldn't have gotten out of. Right. But I had done my homework. You know, thanks to Neil Molanson, my ground coach at the time, we went through all the different scenarios and countering and a bunch of things that we expected to see.
Starting point is 00:37:07 And, you know, he threw everything but the kitchen sink and I threw it all at him. Have you ever gotten into a submission hold and thought, hey, I can get out of it and then your joint pops? The first time I lost in MMA was against Ensign Inouye and I got caught in an arm bar was, you know, struggling, picking him up, trying to get out. It felt like I was going to get out and then my arm started popping and had to tap. Yeah. It's a tough lesson to learn.
Starting point is 00:37:35 That sucks a lot. I would probably rather tap people out. I can arm bar you if you'd let me. Oh, I have to let you. Yeah. Well, I don't know if I'd be able to. I thought you said you could do it. I can.
Starting point is 00:37:48 You can. But I have to let you. But I have to let you. Yes. I will arm bar you. He's feeling not how that works. Well, if you let me. So you're obviously a great fighter, but maybe a better actor.
Starting point is 00:37:58 The expendable has changed a lot of people's lives. Thank you. That's a very nice thing to say. Quite a franchise. I don't get that a lot. Who's the alpha on that set? Because there are a lot. Well, it definitely is Stallone.
Starting point is 00:38:08 It's Stallone's property. There's nobody in the world that could have brought all those people together except for Stallone. And his, you know, he wrote the first one like so many of the properties he's a part of. It's it's definitely part of him and he sets the tone for everybody, uh, very, very smart guy. And I really enjoyed being around him and learning from him and working with him.
Starting point is 00:38:29 But all those guys are amazing guys. Right. They're they're fun to be around. If there was a royal rumble between every member of the expendables who comes out. Good question. Who leaves that? Well, I think I'm the only one. Besides, if you want to count Rhonda Rousey in there, I think it would boil down to her
Starting point is 00:38:45 and I. Okay. As far as fighters, you know, real combative sports athletes, you know, all those guys are great athletes. Terry Crews amazing football player, you know, Steve Austin, Austin, go back 10 years and I could absolutely see Austin competing for his knees when he loves the sport, Jason Statham. He was a great diver, a great acrobat and Mars Lardis Jet Lee be the first one to tell you, I'm a Mars Lardis.
Starting point is 00:39:13 I'm not a, you know, I'm not a fighter and, and, uh, is a Kyokushin karate guy and definitely done a lot of sparring and a lot of your lucky Steven Seagal wasn't in this movie. Yeah. He kicked your ass. He would. He would for sure kick your ass. Does that make you mad when, when like guys like us are like, Hey, Steven Seagal, kick your ass.
Starting point is 00:39:31 John Claude. You're laughing right now, but I feel like you're, I'm getting eyes from everyone like yo, stop, stop poking, stop poking Randy here. He's going to get upset, but seriously, see now that would be a fight worth coming out of retirement. Yes. Oh, so are you challenging Steven Seagal to a fighter? I already thrown that gauntlet down years ago and yeah, and he didn't accept the fight.
Starting point is 00:39:51 No. Or maybe he just kicked your ass so fast you forgot about it. Yeah. He killed those brain cells. Listen, I will get that fight on the cart and Steven Seagal, you've been called out. We will, uh, Randy Couture over Steven Seagal, professional fighters. I made an op-ended comment in front of a bunch of reporters, uh, and of course they were often running with that.
Starting point is 00:40:11 What was it? Well, we're not reporters. So if I was to going to come out of retirement, if Steven Seagal would sign a contract, I didn't know you had like beef with him. I don't have a beef with him at all. Well, now you do. Yeah. Oh, we're getting going.
Starting point is 00:40:22 Yeah. You absolutely have beef with him. Yeah. I have no beef with him at all. Worked with him once. Yeah. On what? Uh, today you die.
Starting point is 00:40:30 I'm immediately going to go home and download it. How many people died in that movie? Oh gosh. A lot. At least one. I'd imagine a lot. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:39 Steven Seagal didn't though. Remember that. Yeah. Exactly. Exactly. Uh, what about Mickey Rourke though? What's that? What about Mickey Rourke?
Starting point is 00:40:47 He seems like a guy that's got his ass kicked a few times. He knows how to handle a punch. He's, uh, heavily into boxing, competed a lot in boxing and, uh, you know, knows his way around the sport for sure in, uh, an amazingly talented actor. Okay. Yeah. Actually, you're the alpha of that group then. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:01 You and Rhonda Rousey are the alphas of the expendables. I'd say so. Um, all right. I have a couple of last questions here. The C-Key question, you put in promo code take you get $10 off your C-Key purchase. You can probably go to the professional fighters league finale in Madison Square Garden. That's right. New Year's Eve.
Starting point is 00:41:17 New Year's Eve. New Year's Eve. That's awesome. Uh, so my C-Key question is what, if you could change anything about the sport, uh, what would you do? How would you make it better for both the fighters and the people watching at home? If I could change anything in the sport, I would amend the definition of a combative sports athlete for the federal legislation and the Muhammad Ali act to include all combative
Starting point is 00:41:38 sports athletes, not just boxers. Okay. Not immediately separates the power in the promotion right now in MMA, the flawed in our system is that the promoter and the sanctioning body are the same guy. He's making his own titles and his own rankings. He's manipulating the fighters and those rankings to suit him to make money. Yup. Uh, it's not a competitive sport.
Starting point is 00:42:03 Why shouldn't the heavyweight champion from Bellator be able to challenge and make the heavyweight champion from the UFC fight and see who the real heavyweight champion is in the world? Yeah. That's, that's a competitive marketplace. That's why boxers make so much more money than mixed martial artists because we're in an anti-competitive sport. Every promotion out there, Bellator and the others create their own rankings and their
Starting point is 00:42:28 own titles and there's no crossover. It's very exclusive. So if I could change anything, I would organize and educate the fighters on that flaw in the system and why we need to come together as fighters and create a fighters association. A union. Do you think that will happen? Mixed martial arts fighters association. We've been lobbying for those two things for the last couple of years.
Starting point is 00:42:47 Yeah. The whole role trying to educate fighters on why we need to come together, why every other professional sport out there has a player's association. It's not really a union because we're, we're independent contractors or 1099s. We're not, we're not employees and frankly, I don't want to be an employee. I want to be able to represent myself in a free market. I'd be able to make those big fights happen and I would get the lion's share of, of what comes in from that event 60 to 70% of what comes in from a boxing event goes to the boxers
Starting point is 00:43:18 that fought on that card were about 13, maybe 17% of what comes in from an MMA event. Yeah. That's ridiculous. That is ridiculous. So if I was, had the ability to wave a magic wand and change something, that's what I would change. I like that. I didn't even know that.
Starting point is 00:43:34 We're not going to have any nonmembers of the, was it the MM, MMAM? MMAFA. MMAFA. Mixed martial arts fighters association. We're not crossing the picket line. We're going to hold that line for it. You think what I'm thinking? You know what I'm thinking?
Starting point is 00:43:44 The head of it? Steven Seagal. Now we're talking. Hey. He made a Bitcoin 2 jet. I don't know if you invested, but it was quite a thing. My last question. A lot of people are asking, who is, who is the goat in your mind?
Starting point is 00:43:58 Man, it's such a tough, tough one to answer because there's so many guys that have been amazing and for so many different reasons. And then you start talking about weight classes. I meant LeBron or MJ. You talking about fighting? No, no. No, no. Fighting.
Starting point is 00:44:16 Fighting. Fighting. Fighting. LeBron or MJ. That's funny. What would your answer be there? I think Michael George. Yes.
Starting point is 00:44:24 Good answer. All right. Now you are qualified to answer who is the goat in fighting. Man. I mean, it's such a debatable thing, you know. George St. Pierre. George has got to be on the list, you know, to, you know, absolutely got to be on the list.
Starting point is 00:44:44 Okay. BJ Penn has got to be on there. I like BJ Penn because he always kind of, he's kind of like Daniel Cormier. We've got a little bit of a soft body, so it's like, hey, you don't even have to do like crunches to be the baddest man on earth. Psychological warfare. Showing up to a fight fast. I got to work with him a little bit.
Starting point is 00:45:01 He's a badass. Yeah. He's amazing. Amazing athlete. Absolutely. What about the spider? He's certainly in the conversation and it was dominant in that way class for quite a while.
Starting point is 00:45:12 Yeah. You know, I'm a big fan of Dan Henderson, one of the, one of the few guys that's, you know, one championships in multiple weights as well. And, and, uh, but I mean, we could start listing a whole bunch of them and they got to be in the conversation. And it's so hard to narrow that down to just tank up the guy now. Probably not. 5000.
Starting point is 00:45:33 I thought I was going to see the first double heart attack. Yeah. That was maybe my favorite fight of all time. Holy hell. What is going on here? Yeah. And rest in peace, Kimbo Slice, but that fight was pure drama because both guys just falling all over each other.
Starting point is 00:45:47 Yeah. I noticed you didn't include yourself. It's very humble of you. Does that mean that you're actually the goat? You have the most title fights of all time, right? You are. I think so. I've heard that before, but I honestly don't know the, I believe so, I don't know the
Starting point is 00:45:59 stats. Yeah. Six heavyweight championship bout wins. Is that also correct? That's right. I'm going to give it to you. Yeah. You're the goat.
Starting point is 00:46:07 You're the goat. But John Jones is the goat if they didn't test for piss. Yes. Yeah. It's between him and Brock Lesnar if they didn't ever test it for piss. All right. So if both those guys were on steroids, just as hot as could be, just loading toward all up their buttholes or whatever, who wins?
Starting point is 00:46:21 You get them in a cage together. I think probably John, his athleticism and length is going to pose a problem for Lesnar. Yeah. And Brock, as amazing athlete as he is and as big and strong as he is, he still hasn't really made friends with getting punched in the face. No. And you've seen that in a couple of the instances where he just kind of changed his mind about being out there after he started getting cracked.
Starting point is 00:46:52 Yeah. Who's that dude with the huge hands that just beat the shit out of him? Mark. Was it Alistair? Oh, no. No. Are you talking about the guy that got paid like $90,000 for the fight? I think you're talking about the guy from Australia, Mark.
Starting point is 00:47:06 Mark Hunt? Yeah, Mark Hunt. I think he was the one who fought. He had, Mark Hunt was another guy who didn't really want to get in shape. But if he caught you with one, you were lights out. Oh yeah. And can take a shot like nobody's business too. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:20 All right. So Randy Couture, the goat. Thank you very much. Check out the professional fighters league. We will put a link to it on our Twitter page and our Instagram. And because we called you the goat, now let's do the arm bar portion so I can arm bar you. Okay? You ready?
Starting point is 00:47:36 We'll do that off air. You ready for it? All right. I'm on. Let's go. Okay. Thanks to Randy Couture. We next up have our football guy of the week, Tyler Trenton, awesome, awesome interview
Starting point is 00:47:48 with him. Before we get to that though, Buffalo Wild Wings. There's no better place to watch football with friends than Buffalo Wild Wings. All the games on wall to wall TVs come in for their $5 game day deals, $5 38 ounce pitchers, a Bud Light, Coors Light or Miller Light, $5 cheeseburger and fries, $5 brat and fries and $5 select cocktails. PFT, what's your favorite part of Buffalo Wild Wings? Because you love it the most.
Starting point is 00:48:10 Well, it's the wings, the beer and the sports is what I like. Yeah. Hell yeah. We actually going to be at Buffalo Wild Wings in Baton Rouge. I'm really excited about that. I'm really excited about that. We'll give you more details later, which one we'll be at, what time we'll be there, it will be Saturday before the LSU Bama game.
Starting point is 00:48:25 We'll be there because we love watching football at Buffalo Wild Wings. $5 cocktails include Bloody Marys, Long Island Ice Teas and Mamosas. Traditional and bonus wings with 21 signature sauces and seasonings. Just a little tip for you guys, the mini corn dogs. I've told you this tip before, but it's my favorite little off menu on menu deal at Buffalo Wild Wings. It is on the menu, but I like to pretend it's off the menu because when you order it, the waiter or waitress is like, this guy, he knows what he's doing here at Buffalo Wild
Starting point is 00:48:53 Wings. So check it out. It's the $5 game deal, day deals. You can go watch football, $5 for your cheeseburger, $5 for your beer. It's all there. Price and participation vary, subject to restrictions, limited time only, Buffalo Wild Wings. We love you. Okay.
Starting point is 00:49:11 Here he is. Football guy of the week, Tyler Trent. And now for something completely different. Okay. We now welcome on football guy of the week, Tyler Trent. You've probably seen this story. It is why we watch sports. It is an incredible story.
Starting point is 00:49:29 Tyler, it was a student at Purdue. He has been battling cancer, fighting courageously against cancer. He had to withdraw from school for this semester to take care of his health, but he was able to go to the Purdue Ohio State game. He guaranteed victory like Joe Namath. And let's start there, Tyler. You are the football guy of the week. I want to just say thank you because I don't think you realize you single-handedly beat
Starting point is 00:49:53 Urban Meyer. Do you realize that? I don't know. I don't think that's fully, anything I've fully realized yet. That's for sure. Okay. That's a football guy answer, by the way. It is.
Starting point is 00:50:05 Giving credit to others. But trust us, you personally beat Urban Meyer and we certainly appreciate that. I saw that you were brought into the locker room. Did you address the team pre-game? I did not. No. I jokingly told Brown that if he needed me, Joe, I would, but he never called me up on that one just afterwards.
Starting point is 00:50:25 So what's the last week and a half been like? Because you've been on a whirlwind. I feel like I've seen you everywhere and it's been such a great story. It's like one of those stories that, like I said, you watch sports for these type of stories. What's it been? Have you had a second to kind of look back and be like, man, I'm doing good morning America. Scott Van Pelt, pardon my take, not the brag.
Starting point is 00:50:44 Have you had a second to kind of take it all in? Not yet. I don't think so. I think this weekend, you know, across my fingers, things will slow down and I'll be able to, you know, take some time to kind of look back and reflect on things. But yeah, you're right. I think there's definitely been a whirlwind. That's for sure.
Starting point is 00:51:05 Yeah. And definitely not anything I ever expected reaction-wise or fame-wise, I guess you could say, from a national media perspective. I saw that you got to, you hung out with Tom Renaldi a little bit from Game Day and he is famous for just making everybody in America emotional no matter what the subject is. My question is, were you able to turn the tables on him and make Tom Renaldi cry? No, I don't think I ever did make Tom cry. There were definitely moments which I'm sure you could tell from the piece where I was
Starting point is 00:51:46 crying and Tom was there for sure. But Tom's a great guy and I am just super thankful for the time I've been able to spend with him and just the work that he's done in the sports world and just with telling people stories because like he said, he's an amazing storyteller and is known for doing some amazing pieces and has done some amazing pieces in the past. I've always wondered, does he have the piano music that just follows him around wherever he goes? Does he have like a speaker in his pocket that just plays when he walks into a room?
Starting point is 00:52:24 He would think, but no, he does not. Okay, interesting. So I did see that after the game, a number of famous Purdue alumni reached out to you. I saw Ryan Kerrigan said something at the podium and several others. Who's the coolest person that has been in touch with you or shouted you out? You know, I think it has to be Drew Brees. He sent me a video after the game and so Drew is just, you know, if you know Purdue, you know Drew Brees.
Starting point is 00:52:58 And he's someone that I have looked up to pretty much my entire life as just an example of what a hardworking guy should be and kind of just the, I think in my mind, he is just the perfect example of what a boiler maker should be and so just kind of receiving just encouragement from him is just incredible and something I'm just super thankful for. I got to ask you a very important question. Has Kyle Orton been in touch? Kyle Orton has not been in touch yet. All right.
Starting point is 00:53:33 Well, what we can do, so occasionally on the show, we like to use our, I don't want to use the word cyberbullying, but our cyber influence for good, we're going to try to get in touch with Kyle Orton for you because honestly, like that's probably a higher honor than Drew Brees. Right. And also don't be offended if we like kind of, we get in touch with Kyle Orton and then we do an interview with him and forget to bring you up because he's like a hero. I don't be offended at all.
Starting point is 00:54:00 No, we'll get to work on Kyle Orton for sure. Because you are the football guy of the week and it is a big honor. We have to ask a couple of football questions. What is your favorite? Who's your favorite football player of all time? Not named Drew Brees. And also, what is your favorite football play? My favorite football play has to be Spire 2Y Banana.
Starting point is 00:54:20 Yeah, football. Hell yes. And I have to go with Peyton Manning as my second favorite football player. OK, all right, that's fair. Second favorite behind Drew Brees. Yes. Yes. OK, so just like the passing statistics. So like a week and a half ago, did you like Peyton before Drew passed him on the list?
Starting point is 00:54:40 No. OK, good. Not a front runner. I like that. That's a good list, though. Peyton Manning or Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, then Kyle Orton. That's a solid list you got there. Yeah, I mean, if you grew up in Indiana and you're not fan of Peyton Manning, it's almost a 10, honestly.
Starting point is 00:54:57 Yeah. Hey, do you actually have any inside word on how Andrew Luck's shoulder's doing? As far as I know, he's fine right now. OK, all right. We're going to credit you there for sourcing. Yeah, I can't guarantee you the help of Adam Minatteri right now. But yeah, it's got that grind on the tickler. Yeah, so we'll we'll we'll see if he's
Starting point is 00:55:19 able to kind of come back from Andrew that he suffered on Sunday. But as far as I know, Andrew's totally fine. OK, good. We're going to write that down. It isn't really saying much, I'll be honest. No, no, no, trust me, we're taking this as your gospel from you. You're a man on the street in Indiana, so you have the source. At what point during the game on Saturday, where you're like, holy crap, we're actually going to do this?
Starting point is 00:55:45 I think in typical Purdue fashion and when the clock I saw the clock finally hit zero and I saw the final score. Because, you know, growing up a Purdue fan, unfortunately, you kind of not grow up disappointed of sports, I would say, but you kind of learn not quote unquote the Purdue way. You know, Purdue has not been known as a powerhouse football wise since since Drew Drew Brees was that Purdue. So, you know, we had a pretty rough, rough patch
Starting point is 00:56:21 Yeah, before Brom came to Purdue. And so I think I was, you know, I didn't start breathing again until the clock hit zero. And that's when I kind of the release came over me. And I finally realized that Purdue had upset the number two team in the country. Now, I've said, you know, I went to Wisconsin, I've said some things about West Lafayette over the years, had some fun, you know, ribbing back and forth.
Starting point is 00:56:49 And I'd like to tell you, Tyler, that I'm not going to apologize for anything. And as a football guy, you should accept my non-apology. That's totally OK with me. Yes. I understand the hate of West Lafayette and kind of understand why people don't like it and may not be necessarily attracted to it at first glance. So it definitely, it's rough around the edges and needs some loving. It's got some loving.
Starting point is 00:57:15 And also, I will say something. I'm going to say something nice about West Lafayette. Cowartin, hero of mine. Jeff Brom, maybe the ultimate football guy. So there is a small part of me that's like kind of rooting for Purdue now because I do love Jeff Brom. Oh, well, that's that's awesome. That's always something I can get behind for sure.
Starting point is 00:57:32 Yeah, when you say it's rough around the edges, all I hear is it's gritty. It's a great town for gritty people. And I'm looking at the Big Ten West right now. That might be the conference of football guys out there leading teams. You got Fitzgerald, you got Chris, you got Brom, you've got PJ Fleck and you've got Scott Frost and Lovey Smith. Yes, all in the same conference. The Big Ten West. Lovey's rocking that beard right now.
Starting point is 00:57:57 Yes, yes, it's fantastic. It's wonderful. I couldn't tell if there was snow stuck in it or if he just grew a white beard. I think it's just a white beard. It does look great. Who would be the runner up for football guy of the Big Ten West in your opinion? Um, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:58:13 I don't know. I don't want to have to go in Lovey just for the beard alone. Yeah. I was very impressed by the beard when I saw it a couple of weeks ago in Purdue was playing, playing Illinois. Yeah, the beard and the snow really popped. Well, and also Lovey doesn't care about offense. He only cares about defense.
Starting point is 00:58:30 So that's his football guy as it gets. What was Coach Brom like when you were interacting with him? Is he a cool guy? He is. He's a fantastic guy. Um, you know, the guy he comes across as is exactly the guy he is. Um, and that's something I really appreciate about him. Jeff's a great guy.
Starting point is 00:58:47 I'm just super thankful Purdue has him and honestly kind of worried that we're going to lose him too quickly. Yeah, I think he'll stay for a little bit. I see what you're saying, but I think he'll stay for a while. Um, so Tyler, we appreciate you joining us. You are football guy of the week. Um, we also want to, you know, we wanted to just talk football with you because you're football guy of the week.
Starting point is 00:59:09 But if you could, uh, let everyone know how we can either help donations, whatever we can do to help in your fight against cancer or cancer in general. And also how, how are you doing right now? And, uh, you know, how's everything going? So the way that people can help is there is a link in my Twitter bio and that goes directly towards a donation page, uh, for Riley Children's Hospital, which is where I have received treatment the last four years of my life. And, uh, basically the hospital that has, uh, kept me alive for the last four years.
Starting point is 00:59:47 And I wouldn't be able to sit here and talk to you today, uh, without the research that they've done and the work that they've done. And they're, you know, they'll continue to save thousands of kids lives every year. Um, and so a hundred percent of the proceeds that are donated through that link go directly towards their PDX Cancer Research Center. Um, and so, you know, I think if people were able to go and donate through that link, that'd be fantastic. Yeah, agree.
Starting point is 01:00:17 So yeah, we're going to go on the basis of my health. You know, I'm doing about as well as one can, um, you know, it's hard for me to complain every day to a blessing, um, for me, um, and, uh, you know, I'm not doing chemotherapy or any treatment right now. And, um, I'm thankful to all the, the Facebook robots who think that they had the cure to cancer, but unfortunately, uh, they don't, um, they think I've received a lot of messages since, uh, my game day piece went wild. And, you know, I think there are definitely Facebook, you know, I think you what I'm saying,
Starting point is 01:01:06 you know, some, you know, all those crazy people on Facebook who think, you know, a part of the MLMs to have the cure to cancer. And so I'm really thankful for all their crazy messages, but I'd appreciate if they, they calm down a little bit. Um, but yeah, no, so I'm doing, it's hard for me to complain. You know, when you wake up every day, um, alive, uh, because you don't know if you're going to have tomorrow, um, it's definitely kind of as a blessing for sure. Yeah. So, so let that be a lesson to everybody as central oils and uh, spoonfuls of coconut oil,
Starting point is 01:01:46 wolf's cyber bully, those fuckers. Yeah. It turns out that's not what helps people with cancer and families with cancer. What really helps is donating. And I think the reality is like, if you haven't experienced it, if nobody in your immediate family has, uh, guess what? Somebody will that's close to you at some point in your life. And, uh, there's actually a way that you can like fight it before it happens and maybe prevent some of this stuff and maybe save somebody's life.
Starting point is 01:02:08 And that's by donating to causes like Tyler's. So, uh, we're going to tweet out that link in your bio and we're going to hope that we can raise a little bit of money for you. Okay. Well, I appreciate that. Thank you guys. Yeah. Thank you. And congrats again on football guy of the week.
Starting point is 01:02:22 It is probably, uh, the most prestigious honors that is awarded to anyone from a podcast that, that they just totally made up the honor. Yeah. But hey, I'm, look, I'm looking at the standings right now. Purdue does have a chance to win the big 10. Okay. Slow down. So don't, don't pay. Purdue is my team. Don't do not do that.
Starting point is 01:02:40 PFT. I am now officially a boiler maker. That's gross. Tyler, thanks so much, man. And hopefully we'll talk soon. Sounds good. Thank you guys. Take care, man.
Starting point is 01:02:52 All the best. Good luck. All right. That interview with Tyler Trent was brought to you guys by me on these. We're going to do some more picks while we do this ad big cat. What game do we have coming up? Oh, Packers and Rams. That's going to be a good one.
Starting point is 01:03:07 That's definitely not a lot of defense being playing that game. So let me talk to you guys about me on these ball. Larry makes his pick. He doesn't wear underwear, but if he did, he would absolutely rock me on these. They're the most comfortable pair of underwear I've ever put on in my life. That's no joke. That is 100% legit. I love them.
Starting point is 01:03:22 And guess what? They've got some more stuff too. They've got lounge pants that are made from the same micromodal fabric as the undies. And they are fall heaven when you cover your entire bottom half of the fabric. That's three times softer than cotton. They also love celebrating the fall season. They're just the Rams. He's got the Rams.
Starting point is 01:03:39 All right. He loves golf. He's a little golf fish. Me undies also love celebrating the fall season with fun Halloween prints. Check out their latest Jack O'Lanterns print in undies, socks, and brawlets. Ooh, that sounds cool. I don't know what it is, but I'm definitely going to get at least one pair. We were just asked today, hey, you've got a new shipment of me undies coming.
Starting point is 01:03:58 Do you want them to be regular, bold, or exotic? Guess which one I picked? Exotic. Big Cat, which one did you take? I think I went bold. No, you went exotic too. Oh, I did. We both went bold on, oh, I went bold on the socks.
Starting point is 01:04:10 I went regular. Your basic pitch when it comes to the socks. But the undies, that's the bread and butter. And I love them. It's always a good dick day in me undies. They have 100% satisfaction guarantee. You're going to love them, but if you're not into it, me undies will do whatever they can to get you into the right pair.
Starting point is 01:04:23 And if they can't keep them, and they're going to refund you. So it's really risk-free to try the best underwear ever. And best of all, they have a great offer for our listeners. For any first-time purchasers, when you purchase any me undies, you're going to get 15% off and free shipping. It's a no-brainer. Get 15% off a pair of the most comfortable undies you will ever put on to get 15% off your first pair of free shipping.
Starting point is 01:04:47 And their 100% satisfaction guarantee. Go to meundies.com slash take. That's meundies.com slash take. The interview is also brought to you by Moves and the Saints. And we've got the Vikings and the Saints. Larry's going to be picking these. And yeah, that's going to be actually a really good game. That's a Sunday nighter.
Starting point is 01:05:04 I'm going to be tuned in. Rematch at the NFC Championship game. But while he's making the pick, I want to talk to you guys about movement or MVMT. You know, it's the company that was found by those two college dropouts that started their own watch company. And the company's grown like crazy. And now with almost 2 million watches sold in 160 countries, they continue to revolutionize fashion on the belief that style should not break the bank.
Starting point is 01:05:26 I don't know if you checked out the site recently, but they've doubled the number of watch styles and they're still expanding. Larry went with the Saints. He took the Saints. All right. Movement has come far from being crowd-funded kids working out of a living room. In the past year, they've not only introduced a ton of new watch collections for both men and women, but also expanded sunglasses and fashion forward bracelets for her.
Starting point is 01:05:46 I love movement watches. I put it on all the time. People are like, yo, was that a $3,000, $5,000 watch? Nope, not hardly. It's actually very, very affordable. They started just $95 bucks. At a department store, you're looking at $400 to $500 bucks for those. Movement figured out that by selling online, they're able to cut out the middleman
Starting point is 01:06:02 and retail markup providing the best possible price. They're a classic design. They've got quality construction and styled minimalism. And you can get 15% off today with free shipping and free returns by going to mvmt.com slash pardon. That's mvmt.com slash pardon. Join the movement. And Larry's got another pick.
Starting point is 01:06:23 But if you want to know what that is, tune in to Barstool Sports Advisors at 10 o'clock on TVG. Where else can they find it? In Philly, in Boston. Fandal app. Fandal app. On the Barstool Sports app at 10 30. Yep.
Starting point is 01:06:35 It's going to be put up online. And we do a special spooky Halloween pick with Larry the Gambling Goldfish. And he's going to tell you who to take in the Colts Raiders game. Talk about your acting, big cat. Tell him about your performance. You want to do this? So it was just, it was a tour de force on all fronts. I was going for an Oscar.
Starting point is 01:06:53 You be the judge. We got to a point where Hank was, Hank asked me to, there was a point in the script where I had to say no. And Hank was trying to over direct me. And I said, you know what, Hank, I'm going to give you five no's right now. You can pick it. And I just hammered him. No.
Starting point is 01:07:11 No. No. No. Nope. No. You know what? You shouldn't have to say no five times. No.
Starting point is 01:07:20 One should be enough. But Hank, that's what Hank does. Hank doesn't understand that. Yeah. He still has a lot to learn about that. Very, very, very problematic. Very problematic. No.
Starting point is 01:07:28 For shame. No, Hank. Now that I'm thinking about it, Larry has done a song. He's been in several feature films. He's, I think all we need to do is get Larry in some sort of like show tune or stage play. And then he'll be up for an egot. I was going to say that it'll be Will Smith. Get all of them.
Starting point is 01:07:45 Just does it all. Collect them all. Like the rock. Yeah. Welcome to, well, more like Will Smith. Rock doesn't, rock doesn't have bars like Will Smith. Have you not heard the song with the refugee all stars? It doesn't matter.
Starting point is 01:07:57 I got 50 Bentley's in the West Indies. It doesn't matter. Welcome to Miami. Bienvenido. I think you need to study up on your feet. On your, on your street to the day. Yeah. You're just, you know what you are?
Starting point is 01:08:07 To the night is done. You're, you're pros here is what you are. What? You hate pros. What? And the refugee all stars. The rock, Will Smith also has like his jeans passed down to very successful people. True.
Starting point is 01:08:18 True. Jaden Smith, that kid like makes you think on Twitter. Wait, is Hank saying that, is Hank saying that the rocks offspring aren't going to be genetic freaks? Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, who knows? Yeah, probably not. No, I feel, no, I feel like, I feel like a guy like the rock, he'll have a kid and it'll be, you know, he'll be kind of a puny kid just because like world has to, water finds its level.
Starting point is 01:08:41 Bad ass and a skip to generation. Yeah, right. Will Smith, he just has a kid that tweets out super deep things that are not like, do you ever think about how much water is in the world? Whoa. At Jaden Smith. Okay, let's get to some segments. First up, we had to bring it up the World Series.
Starting point is 01:08:58 Yes, it is still going on. Yes, the Red Sox are going to win. Hank, you were game two. I was. It was delightful. It was great. It was great. This has been a shit kicking.
Starting point is 01:09:05 The Red Sox. David Price, he was due. Their situational hitting. And now Chris Sayles due. Yeah, their situational hitting is insane. They just, every time they get a guy on running in scoring positions, it's like, okay, we'll just get a single to the opposite field. What was it like there, Hank?
Starting point is 01:09:17 It was loud. It was, it was fun. It was a great time. That was awesome. Did you see, did you see Trump's wall hat tip, Peter Gammons? No, but I did. Did you guys see that they didn't invite Kurt Schilling because of his political views?
Starting point is 01:09:29 Oh, really? Kind of fucked up. Did they do like a Legend of the Red Sox? 2004, they had all the big players from 2004. Oh, wow. And they didn't ask Kurt Schilling. Interesting. Interesting.
Starting point is 01:09:37 Oh, wow. Interesting. Kind of fucked. Interesting. So he was too busy doing his like web radio show that he does every week. Well, he was investigating who, who did the mail bombs. That's true.
Starting point is 01:09:46 Yeah. Yeah. That was a big day. So David Price, does David Price have the clutch gene? That is the question. That is the segment. And I'm going to say yes. He does.
Starting point is 01:09:56 When it matters the most. He has, Hank is right. In the ALCS in the World Series, you ready for this PFT? He has a 2.72 ERA. So essentially, he just can't be bothered with the first round of the playoffs. That's fine. I like that.
Starting point is 01:10:09 Yeah. I like that a lot. That's the definition of the clutch gene. So when the spotlight is highest on him, he's very good. We know what he's done. He's evolved the clutch gene. He's like the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park. You know, they're all born women.
Starting point is 01:10:21 Never seen it. Life finds a way. And some of them evolve into males. Basically, he spontaneously just dropped a pair of testicles. He's like, guess what? Clutch gene, let's go. I didn't know that's what happened. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:30 So Hank, here's a little fun fact. I didn't see it. So you know how you all laugh at me when I tell you that if you put tap water in like douse a frog in it, it'll turn the frog gay? Well, actually frogs can change from female to male if they're around just only chicks all the time. Gender is a spectrum.
Starting point is 01:10:47 Yeah. So that they can reproduce. Life finds a way. Got it. Chaos. So very similar with the World Series? It means that David Price has the clutch gene now. OK.
Starting point is 01:10:56 Because he evolved it. He does he wear a mouth guard? No. I thought he had a mouth guard in the other night. Did he? Did you see that, Bubba? He has like an orange thing in his mouth. Maybe it was an orange peel.
Starting point is 01:11:06 Fucking crazy. No. I did get a hot tip a couple of weeks ago. I think he does. You guys tell me if this sounds like bullshit. Sounded legit to me, but I don't know. The tip was that you know how a lot of pictures came down with hand, foot, and mouth disease?
Starting point is 01:11:21 A lot of ballplayers did. He wears a mouth guard. He does. I'm just searching. While he's pitching? Yes. That's the softest move I've ever heard. He does.
Starting point is 01:11:28 He wears a mouth guard. OK. I got a rescinded clutch gene. OK. But anyway, so I heard that a lot of pictures were coming down with hand, foot, and mouth disease because Major League Baseball was cracking down on illegal pine tar that pictures were using.
Starting point is 01:11:41 And so instead, they started to use horse poop on their arms. And they would just like. That's definitely not true. Where'd you read this? It was an unsolicited direct message. You just made this up. No, it was a hot tip coming in. Oh, if we're on unsolicited direct messages,
Starting point is 01:11:54 I got a hot tip this past week. Urban Meyer is going to be the next coach of the Packers. Oh. Yeah. Bob Stoops is going to be the next coach of the Browns of the Ohio State. I have heard that. And I think that there is some creative.
Starting point is 01:12:07 Some great hot tips. Bob Stoops actually bought a house in Columbus last week. Our wife was searching for a house. We're still waiting for him to be the coach of the Bears because he has like six houses in Chicago. Hank, are you looking it up? He wears a mouth guard. Yes.
Starting point is 01:12:20 Hank, come on. Come on, Hank. Confirmed. That's disgusting. Let's see. We had a. It's bought a row, though. Like.
Starting point is 01:12:28 That's even weirder. Well, I think it's something about grinding your teeth. Yeah, it's grinding your teeth. But I noticed it. And I was like, you know what? We make fun of Steph Curry. Why not David Price? Well, at least he doesn't show it off.
Starting point is 01:12:40 No, he doesn't. Well, he does a little, but he doesn't. Whatever. He's got the clutch gene now. It's crazy. It's insane. We have a just stop talking to John Gruden, but it's actually a fact check, John Gruden.
Starting point is 01:12:51 So would you say that he's worth all the money that they paid him if he gets another win this World Series? More. This is what you pay your players for. Flags fly forever. Yep. So yeah, I was I was going to say no, but then I thought I remembered flags fly forever.
Starting point is 01:13:04 Yep. So whenever you but whenever you any money you spend on any guy who is on a championship roster, Jason Hayward flags fly forever. That's how it works. So we had a just stop talking to John Gruden. Some guy tweeted out that John Gruden said, I don't even know if the Amari Cooper trade is official yet
Starting point is 01:13:23 on the same day that Amari Cooper was practicing for the Cowboys. So it went semi viral. Everyone's like, haha, John Gruden, myself included. Turns out this guy used a quote from Monday and tweeted it on Tuesday and he should be in jail. He should. Is this the same guy that wrote the headline of Denver Broncos cocaine party?
Starting point is 01:13:42 Yeah, they should be in jail. That is false information. You can't do that. You can't put quotes out like a day later and expect us to know. But he actually makes somewhat of a good point that you can't actually finalize the trade until like five years later when we can debate who won the trade.
Starting point is 01:13:57 True. So really, Sam Bradford has not been traded. The trade hasn't been finalized from the Eagles to the Vikings yet because we're still not sure who won yet. Or the Rams to the Eagles. Or from the Vikings to the Cardinals. Yeah, there's a lot that we have to figure out with Sam Bradford. So who won Sam Bradford's career?
Starting point is 01:14:16 Sam Bradford. Yes, it was actually a very easy answer. Very, very easy answer. Sam Bradford's, yeah, his agent. Okay, next up we had a Jimmy Butler update. PFT, how many, if you were going to trade a top 15 guy, how many first round picks would you offer? I think it's got to be worth at least seven.
Starting point is 01:14:33 Yeah, okay. So you know the answer. The Rockets are reportedly Wojbaum offering four first round picks for Jimmy Butler, which is insane. I guess they assume that they can resign him because I'm pretty sure he's a free agent after this year. So that's an insane contract. Also, I mean, the Rockets first round picks
Starting point is 01:14:52 aren't going to be high first round picks. No, well, they're 0-1-3. Oh, okay. So if the season ended today, they would be in last. Yeah, they're on pace for zero wins this year. Yes, exactly. Yeah, I mean, that's, I think it's not a bad move because you're that close to competing against the Warriors.
Starting point is 01:15:07 Maybe. The Rockets are 1-3? The Rockets are 1-3. They beat the Lakers. The Rockets are 1-2. The Rockets are 1-2. I stand corrected. The Rockets are 1-2.
Starting point is 01:15:18 Who's a bigger fraud? Chris James Harden tweaked his hamstring. Is that true? That is true. Chris Paul, worst teammate in the league. What? No, we don't know that. Says who?
Starting point is 01:15:28 Says all of his former teammates. Says one former teammate. Yeah. And Ryan Hollins. Ryan Hollins and Glenn Davis, two of the best basketball players of all time. Wouldn't Delante West be the worst player in the league, worst teammate in the league?
Starting point is 01:15:38 No, he's a good teammate. He got in his opponent's head. Member, member, member. I think it's actually a good teammate move. What? To satisfy your mother? That way she's not like calling and complaining to you and distracting you on game day.
Starting point is 01:15:52 I guess that's true. You can spin it any way you want. Okay, we have... He handles all the ticket requests, so you don't have to. Yeah, exactly. Drunk idea. You have a drunk idea?
Starting point is 01:15:59 I do have a drunk idea, yes. My drunk idea is Uber, but for lottery tickets. Okay. So I meant to play the lottery, probably like the last four drawings. I only did the last two. So there were two that I didn't play just because I didn't feel like
Starting point is 01:16:13 leaving my apartment going on again. And that's not something that you can like seamless. Yeah. You can't postmates that. Yeah. You have to have... There needs to be a dedicated, a cash-only business that is somebody that will front the money at the store
Starting point is 01:16:26 and then give you the tickets. Why wouldn't they just put it a whole thing online? And you should put in a credit card. You know what they really should do? That's what they should do. Like 50-50 raffles are now going online. Because you can't buy lottery tickets with a credit card. But they...
Starting point is 01:16:36 You might not have to pay. You should have to do that. You should be able to do that. Or debit card. A debit card would work. Or the cash app. Mm-hmm. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:43 Venmo's somebody. No. Cash app. You know what? Can you imagine how much money the lottery would make if they somehow just made an app that you can with one click... Excuse me. Buy lottery tickets?
Starting point is 01:16:54 Yes. It would be insane. It'd be ridiculous. I would buy so many lottery tickets. Yeah. So that's my drunk idea. If you're an entrepreneur, I suggest you develop it and then give me some share of the winnings.
Starting point is 01:17:03 So just basically put the lottery online. You know what I would do? Is if I were the guy that bought people lottery tickets... I don't understand how Uber comes into play here. Well, just like somebody that'll go to the store for you by the... So it's Postmates. Postmates. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:15 But be careful. Dude, in Silicon Valley, if you want to sell something, you want to raise finances. It's the Twitter for the lottery. It's either Tinder, But 4, or Uber, But 4. So in this case, it's Uber, But 4. Got it. But I just now realized a hole in my perfect plan.
Starting point is 01:17:30 That it has nothing to do with Uber? If it were me... No, that's part of the perfect plan. If it were me and I just bought somebody 30 bucks worth of lottery tickets, and I just looked at them on my way to that person's house, I'd be like, I'm just going to keep these lottery tickets. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 01:17:42 Because what if this one is a winner? Right. Imagine what a sucker you'd feel like if you delivered the winning lottery ticket. Well, you're... The Postmate, it should be... That should be the tip. You get...
Starting point is 01:17:51 If the lottery ticket is a winner, then people would go and buy them all the time. Yeah, that's true. For you. So that's the service. That's really what it is. And also, I'm pretty sure that this is exclusive to like really lazy 30-year-old dudes living in New York City.
Starting point is 01:18:08 Yeah, but there are a lot of us. Yeah, yeah. Because I'm just thinking of like the guy who won the lottery. There's a lot of people who just play the lottery every day on the way home from work to get gas and stuff. Right. But there are a lot of lazy people out there. Yes.
Starting point is 01:18:19 Let's capitalize on that. That's the problems. You don't get gas. Mm-hmm. So let's do Hank's grab bag. Finish off the week, by the way. I was informed today. Terrible news.
Starting point is 01:18:30 Vern Troyer has passed away. I did not know that until today. Several months ago. I really fucked up that you guys told me that today. Died well. Josie died, too. Put the guy from Kid Rock. How long ago did Vern Troyer die?
Starting point is 01:18:40 It was recent. This year. Yeah, it was recent. It's just fucked up to just lay that on me. His little liver couldn't handle it. Yeah. Man. OK.
Starting point is 01:18:50 This is real life superstar. This is actually a guy's on chick left over from Wednesday. It'd be pretty funny if a giant Scottish person actually ate him, wouldn't it? Yeah, that would be funny. Yeah. Jonah in the whale situation. Then he comes out and he's still alive.
Starting point is 01:19:02 Fat bastard. Yeah. No, but I'm saying it would be like Jonah in the whale, so then he comes out and he's still alive. Yeah. Hey, Vern Troyer is not actually dead. Uh-huh. So if I like the feeling of my boyfriend sucking on my nipples,
Starting point is 01:19:13 and women breastfeed by letting babies suck on their nipples, does this mean I like the feeling of breastfeeding? And if I do, does this make me a pedophile? I think that women, yeah, you will. Women like that because it's in their genetics to enjoy breastfeeding. It feels good. It feels like you're procreating. Anything associated with sex or giving birth,
Starting point is 01:19:32 you're just going to feel great doing it. Okay, I got to be honest, I didn't listen to the question because Barstool Carl got a dog. Oh, okay. And he named it Scotty Pippin. Look how good this dog is. That's a good dog. That's a pretty cute dog.
Starting point is 01:19:42 Yeah, sorry. Reminds, I used to sell used dogs back in the day, and I sold a used dog one time named Skye, and she looked just like that. Yeah, that's a good dog. Great dog. So Big Cat, you're really the nipple expert here. If we're going with size over quantity,
Starting point is 01:19:57 yeah, why does it feel good to breastfeed? Or do you think it does feel good to breastfeed if you're a woman? Yeah, I think it definitely does. Probably. Well, it's also, I think there's two feelings you get. Pleasure and also a relief of pain. Like a cow's full udders, you know?
Starting point is 01:20:16 Yeah. Not saying that that's what a udder is. Yeah, that's not what I'm saying. We're not saying you're a cow. No, you look beautiful. Strike that from the record. You look beautiful. You get what I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:20:27 The rest of these are PMT FAQs, so a little behind the scenes sausage making. Do you guys ever pay guests to come on? No. No. In fact, the only guest? Well, JJ, what? Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 01:20:38 Yeah, we did. Yeah, we paid him. Well, we paid his charity, which probably goes directly to him. Yes. No, we don't. Probably not. We do not. But the one guest that we had that asked for a check
Starting point is 01:20:48 to come on the show, you will not be shocked to find out it was Pete Rose. Yes. And we said no. I feel like close I can say go also might ask for some money. He probably did, yeah. So no, we do not pay. We will not pay.
Starting point is 01:20:59 That's a big J, no, no. But if you have something you want to promote, just tell us and we'll fucking shamelessly promote the fuck out of it. I mean, if it's if you're a really big guest, we'll pay you. Oh, yeah. I'd pay. Yes.
Starting point is 01:21:10 Aaron Rodgers, I'll pay you with the tip of my pinky. Rick Pettino, I'll get you a $20 gift card to Olive Garden. Yes. How much warming up do you guys do with guests before actually recording? Did you have to do more of this early on when the show was not as well known slash popular? Mm, good question, Hank.
Starting point is 01:21:26 I'd say early on. I'll take credit for it. Thank you. Good question, Hank. Thank you. Early on, the guests that we didn't know that came on the show, it was via Skype, so they couldn't see either one of us.
Starting point is 01:21:35 Mm-hmm. A little fun fact about that. We didn't know. Well, they could see us over the over the video, but they weren't in the same room as us. So it's kind of hard to like butter somebody up that way. But what we didn't know for a long time was they could see video of me and Big Cat in our respective houses.
Starting point is 01:21:51 So I mean, Big Cat used to point at each other when it was the other person's turn to ask a question. Yes. And it wasn't until like 20 interviews in that we found out that the people could see us just like pointing directly at the screen. They're like, why are you pointing at me like that? Actually, I forgot how much that sucked.
Starting point is 01:22:04 We couldn't do any phone calls. But no, for warming up, I'd say it depends on the case. Like a lot of times it's someone who is aware, the PR person has made him aware, or it's someone that we know. Usually there's probably, I don't know, a couple minutes here and there on the phone or in person where we're just shooting the shit. See if we can get them to say anything explosive
Starting point is 01:22:27 that then we can blackmail them with later. Just kidding. Just kidding. All future guests, just kidding. I feel like you usually too talk about mutual connections you have. Yeah, I got one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Get this guy on.
Starting point is 01:22:37 This guy's our boy. That sort of thing. We do a lot of that. What shows have you been on this week? Oh, that show sucks. Sorry you had to sit through that. Hopefully we'll ask you some questions they didn't ask you. Right.
Starting point is 01:22:47 I usually go like, hey, we're a lot funnier than everyone else. We're going to ask you some crazy questions. But we do, if we have a football coach or someone, we try to impress them being like, hey, we were with the strength coach down in Louisiana. He said he knew you. It's like, oh, usually they don't give a fuck, but they pretend they basically sit there and they're like,
Starting point is 01:23:05 oh, these guys are kind of lame. I like to talk about my high school football career. That usually resonates pretty well. We actually, Von Miller, when he came in, I was like, hey, can I get you some water or anything? He's like, do you have any cognac? And I was like, as a matter of fact, I do. And so I drank a little glass of cognac from Von Miller.
Starting point is 01:23:20 Why are you guys so mean to Ravel? New listeners need a recap of the beef. Okay, this is complicated. It is very complicated. And we both have history. Our own personal history. You want to go first? I'm actually not that mean to Ravel.
Starting point is 01:23:32 I'm at a point, Ravel and I had used to have a rivalry. I beat him 11-0 in basketball. He then, it was actually the best thing he's ever done for his career. No joke, because basically all the Stoolies were like, Ravel's not that bad. But I'm at the point now where Ravel, look, he needs me. He needs me.
Starting point is 01:23:50 And he needs me because when I interact with him, everyone's like, oh, Ravel, oh, he murdered Big Cat. I like Ravel. I think he's a little bit of a dweeb, but he's harmless and he's a nice guy. That was, that felt dirty saying that. Yeah. Also fucking, I take everything back
Starting point is 01:24:05 that I just said if Northwestern beats Wisconsin this weekend. Okay, that's fair. I hate Ravel or I hated Ravel. I don't, I wouldn't say I hate him anymore, but I hated him because at one point, when I was writing at a website called Kissing Susie Kober back in like 2013,
Starting point is 01:24:19 he narked on one of my readers. One of my readers made a joke about him on Twitter. And then Darren went into this guy's profile. Hitler joke. Well, so it was making fun of Darren Ravel for loving logos so much and saying like, if you were a business reporter in 1930s Germany, you would have said that this was just
Starting point is 01:24:38 an example of great branding. It was making fun of Ravel. And Ravel didn't like that very much and reported him to his professor at Michigan University. Fast forward a couple years, that guy, Dr. Neil Muhammad, actually ran for, I believe it was for the House of Representatives in Illinois.
Starting point is 01:24:54 And I think he came in second place, which is pretty cool. So check him out if you live in Illinois. And so ever since then, I've been like, fuck you Ravel, you're a nark. And then in the last like years, so I've kind of, things have thawed between Ravel and I a little bit and we haven't.
Starting point is 01:25:08 You used to really hate him. Even like a year ago, I was like, let's get him on. You're like, no. Because like, for example, if a listener of part of my take. You got triggered. Well, if Ravel went after one of our listeners
Starting point is 01:25:18 and tried to get them kicked out of school, I would like to think that me and you would stand up for our listeners. I would just be like, Ravel, you're a fucking loser. So I held a grudge, but me and Ravel, I think we're on okay terms now. Okay. Last two.
Starting point is 01:25:33 Who is the number one on your list of people you want to interview but haven't yet? Aaron Rodgers. He'd be good. Cubes. It's interesting that you say Aaron Rodgers because you just hate him so much. Yeah, I want it.
Starting point is 01:25:44 Oh, Kevin Durant, actually. I want to call him a baby back bitch to his face. I feel like both of them know you. It would be tough for you to know. No, I'd say I'd have to come out hard at first and then soften it up. Aaron Rodgers, I would, Kevin Durant, I think would actually be good after a while
Starting point is 01:25:58 after we got the old baby back bitch shit out of the way. Aaron Rodgers, I feel like Aaron Rodgers, if he was not in the right mood, could be a very bad interview. You know, I'd like to interview Jerry Jones on us. Get him all liquored up. Glory home. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:12 Get him all liquored up and talk to Jerry. He gave us some gold for sure, if we talk to him. Do you imagine doing an exit interview with Jerry Jones and just having it being glory home? I think Jerry Jones' entire life is just an exit interview. Yeah, Hank's going to stand on the other side of this wall. Yeah. And you have to eat whatever comes through.
Starting point is 01:26:28 Oh, my God. All right, last one. Side question. We'd love to hear about PMT dogs, ages, where you got them, et cetera. Oh, go ahead, PMT. So Leroy is 10 and a half years old. He's an English master.
Starting point is 01:26:40 He's going blind, but he can still see and he, so I'm like a seeing-eyed person. It's kind of cute. I like walking around and guiding him around. It's ironic, given your cornea. Yeah, it is very, very, very ironic. Extremely ironic.
Starting point is 01:26:53 And I got him in, where was it? I think it was Denver. Yeah, I got him in Denver, Denver, Pennsylvania. From a breeder. Denver, Pennsylvania, from a nice Mennonite slash Amish family. From a breeder? That had two mastiffs as their house, as their family pets and they fucked.
Starting point is 01:27:08 Got it. So it was a breeder. I think she was a breeder. But she didn't tell me she was a breeder. Yikes. It's embarrassing. Yeah, very, very problematic in retrospect. But I had him since he was a puppy
Starting point is 01:27:15 and he was like 10 pounds or about one. Yeah, well, because you got a breeder. I couldn't be so lucky. Mm-hmm. Yeah. So Stella, I rescued. Not to brag, but I've saved infinity dogs lives. Who saved who?
Starting point is 01:27:25 Yeah, it's true. She is seven and a half gray beard, rescued from paws Chicago. You're going to die or like you die your hair? No, I've thought about it. I've actually definitely thought about it. You know what, when people die, they're dogs like to look like tigers.
Starting point is 01:27:40 Yeah. Why do people say that's cruelty? No, the dog doesn't care. Yeah, the problem is it's like half the time it's so cute singing a gray beard and half the time it's like, fuck, she's getting old. But yeah, she's seven, paws Chicago. I think they rescued her.
Starting point is 01:27:51 She was just walking around on the south side. They just picked her up. And she was nine. She might be. And she was nine months old then. So, but she never grew anymore. She's a, we did a blood test. It's a fucking shit show.
Starting point is 01:28:05 She is a pit bull, beagle, cattle dog, other. Okay. So like a super, super mutt. So here's the real question. It's crazy how Max V's dog looks exactly like that. Yes, yes, yes. So you can see all of it. Like she barks like a beagle.
Starting point is 01:28:23 She has a little bit of a pit bull face when she smiles, but she's like too small for a pit bull. And she's not muscular. And she mistakes big cat for a cow all the time, like a cattle dog. Yeah, exactly. So, you know, she does, she does just show up and run around. I just want to say this.
Starting point is 01:28:37 You've been mean to me in Hank like all week. You've had some weird things. No, I'm just saying I'm sorry. I'm apologizing for that. Oh, thank you. Oh wow. Yeah. I'm apologizing for being mean to you.
Starting point is 01:28:46 Just everyone should notice the meanness only goes one way. Here's the real PFT to me in Hank. Here's the real question big cat. When you move into apartment, what do you put on the application for what type of breed she is? Cattle dog. Yes. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 01:29:00 No way am I putting pit bull. Yeah. One time I put that. I was moving to a place in Leroy. It was like 120 pounds and I put he's a lab mix. Yeah. And that didn't fly to me. It helps to sell us 30 pounds.
Starting point is 01:29:10 But yeah, no, there's no chance that I would ever put anything. What about your dog, Hank? I had a dog named Ruby for my entire life. Oh no, don't do this. Shut up. All right, forget it. I was actually just giving you shit because you don't have a dog,
Starting point is 01:29:21 so you don't have a best friend. Yeah, because I have this fucking job. And it wouldn't help. I wouldn't be able to have a dog. We should get a community dog for the four of us and just let it live here. Yeah, we've done a pretty good job of goldfish. So I think getting a dog would be great.
Starting point is 01:29:36 Oh man. Okay, that's our show. We got some big guests coming up in the next couple of weeks. Yeah, I'm talking big guests. Big guests. Get excited. Coming up next couple of weeks. Love you guys.
