On today's part of my take, we have Roger Bennett back in studio, talking World Cup, his beloved England. They disappointed yet again, and we're going to recap everything and preview the final. We also have Mount Rushmore of reality television shows, which will surely be a contentious one because there are a ton of good ones, like a ton.

Why are you laughing? Because you've promised contentious Mount Rushmore. Yeah, but this one, I'm really feeling it. I'm really feeling it. I'm really, really feeling it. And there are some very... I'm also trying to sell a show, Hank. I mean, sorry for teasers.

I don't want to maybe mix it up. Hey, so we've got a Mount Rushmore. It's going to suck. It's going to be boring. You can fast forward through that. No one's really going to care about today's Mount Rushmore. But if you say contentious every time, then there's generally accepted, like, top picks in this Mount Rushmore, and we're all going to be scrapping for them.

Yeah, it's going to be a dogfight. No, no. Whatever. Okay. All right. Yeah. Did Michael Vick have a reality show? Yeah.

It's called Cops. Yeah. I feel like he did have a reality show. I don't think so. Okay. All right. Anyway, we're going to get to the show. We have Jimbo's as well, and a little brain dump, little ideas for you.

JJ. JJ. JJ. JJ. JJ. JJ. JJ. Welcome to part of my take presented by SeekGeek.

Today is Friday the 13th. Ooh. Spooky. Do you? I don't really. Like, I used to be like, uh-oh, something bad's gonna happen. No, something bad happens every day. Yeah, true.

So you can always just blame it on something. But no, I'm above superstitions. Okay. All right. So Hank? I believe in it, yeah. Oh, you do? Mm-hmm.

All right. Well, hopefully nobody dies from this show. We'll see you in a second. Here's some good news, though. Jeff Fisher's back in our lives. So excited about that. I'm really, I'm actually excited about it because I happened to be, uh, go, oh, good call Hank.

He is now going to be in the Fox booth. They're trying him out for a Jets Jaguars game and so he's going to be announcing the boat and Jeff Fisher knows his quarterbacks and he, I think it's a try out to see if maybe he works out and he can do every single game forever on, yeah, every game, every Fox game he'll be doing like four at a time and he'll do a really good job on two of the four at a time and a really shitty job on the other two. I, I, I'm being totally honest when I say that I think he'll be a good announcer and here's why.

The best announcers don't really say shit. They, they're just kind of quiet and they let the game just go on. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

You're right. Jeff Fisher is as close to nothing as possible. So he'll just like chime in every like third down, he'll be like, I think they should probably run it here. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, maybe throw a challenge flag. If you can find it.

Oh my God. His challenge is, he's going to go like probably one for 600 next year. Yeah. It's going to be great. I also, I don't want to be juvenile here, but if we could get maybe a microphone near his, took us during the games, I would imagine Jeff Fisher is going to be ripping a hole through his seat during every Sunday's game. You think he's a big fart guy?

His Jeff Fisher, a big fart guy. Yeah, dude. He wears the long shirts that go butt down to his knees in case he has an accident. To cover up the butt. Yeah. I was actually thinking Jeff would be more of a burp guy. Anyone with a flavor saver like that, a little mustache, I could see him burping just directly up into his mustache.

And we're definitely going to get some live Mike fuck ups from him, we're like to come back a little too soon and he's just motherfucking someone. Either way, Jeff Fisher, it was, it's one of those things he's, I hope he takes calls for his next job while he's on the air. Yeah. He's been out of our life for a year. I mean, he hasn't been out of my life. I've been basically hyping him up and trying to keep his name in the news.

So do I, do I get a little bit of this contract? Should I get something? Maybe a part of my take appearance. Yeah. Here's the thing. We have done a good job of making Jeff Fisher remain relevant during his off season. Yes. It's his winter of discontent.

Did you see, well, that the picture of him in the airport with dog, that was us too. Yeah. That spread that. That did more to raise his profile than anything he's ever done on a football field. Have I told on, on part of my take the story of my conversation with him? I don't think that was really him. I think he got catfish. No.

I actually talked to him. I talked to Jeff Fisher because it sounded like him and he also talked my ear off. But it was also perfectly Jeff Fisher because it was right before, it was right in between the Josh McDaniels thing with the cults. And when they hired Chris Ballard, no, no, Ballard's the GM. Yeah. Who they have. Frank Reich?

The head coach, right? Yeah. Yeah. So it was in between that and he was like, yeah, I'd love to come on the show. Where'd you talk to him? I talked to him on the phone. What? Yeah.

You don't, did I not tell this? It wasn't really Jeff Fisher. I got it from someone who is like very close to Jeff Fisher, who would not catfish me. And it sounded like Jeff Fisher and he talked to me for probably an hour. And the best part, the reason why it was Jeff Fisher was he was like, listen, I'd love to come on your show, but I'm thinking I might get this cults gig and things are going to work out. So I got to lay low for a second.

I think he even said maybe me and Bill Polian are going to get back together and do this whole thing. Yeah. You told me that he said that. Yeah. I don't think that was true at all. I'm going to call him right now. All right.

I'm going to call him right now. Sounds like a burner. Sorry, Mr. Call. Please leave a message and I'll get back with you as soon as I can. Thank you. Tell me that's not Jeff Fisher. I'll admit that sounded like Jeff Fisher. I'm not ready to fully accept it, but I say, don't be so jealous.

The ponderance of the evidence is on Jeff Fisher. It's a bad look to be jealous about my relationship with Coach. I am glad that Jeff Fisher is back. The NFL is a better place when he's in it. I've long said that, but I thought that he would get a job in the league office. I thought that that's what is passing. This is better though. We get him out in front of the people.

Love it. The other news we have, England is out. All the cocaine use and beer throwing on each other done, which I was really enjoying. I think the beer throwing is going to continue. The open cocaine use is probably done. Wide open cocaine use. Yes. The video of a guy on a light post.

When you're watching a Philly celebration, it's just a guy on a light post and he just gets up there and then he falls. This one was just the English version, but he just gets up there and he pours himself a line on his hand and then does it and everyone cheers. If you do it in front of a crowd, it's art. It doesn't count as being against the law. That's the rule. If you do it on stage, like Iggy Pop used to slit his arms open and just bleed on the crowd.

It's a little dark. That's not a crime. You can do whatever you want as long as people are watching you do it. Who do you have in the final? Oh, in the final. Remember, before you give an answer, Mbop is only 19 years old. I know. You got him?

Yep. Okay. I got him. Although Croatia, I don't know what they drink in the water there because they've gone three extra times now and they just don't give up. Yeah. It's wild. They got alligator blood.

That's true. They did. How many minutes is that? 360. 360 minutes is a lot of minutes, but the French had a war that lasted 100 years one time. I think that they've got some decent stamina, too. Plus, they all smoke in France. That's one thing that I've learned recently.

True. They probably have pretty good lung capacity, too. We're going to be actually in D.C. for the All-Star game, but we're also going to go to the D.C. United game because we caught so much soccer fever that we want to go to the D.C. United game, a little MLS action. So, come check us out. We'll probably be walking around. I think we're credentialed.

When you see us, act cool because we are credentialed. You'll see the fedoras and you'll hear the complaining before you actually see our faces. Don't ask for a picture because we're journalists. That's right. We'll shake your hand and maybe slip you like a loose hot dog or something, maybe a free rewards like a Marriott rewards card or something, but that's about it. Yeah. Back to the World Cup final.

I think France, I also think it's hilarious that Italy is right in between France and Croatia. They're like the referee in a boxing match that's given like the pre-fight instructions and Italians weren't even in the World Cup this year. People forget that. They're not really talking about it so much, but I do love that it's going, the World Cup trophy is going to go to either the left or the right of Italy. And Croatia, huge, huge get up for Croatia because I feel like everyone's been Googling

Croatia and realize that Croatia actually is very beautiful because I think a lot of people do the like Croatia, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Bosnia, Serbia, all those are the same. Actually not true. Croatia is like tropical. And they have like, they have so much coastline in that country. Who are they boxing out? I think they're boxing out Bosnia, poor Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Bosnia is like New Hampshire. Yeah. Yeah. Getting boxed out by Maine. Real, real shame. So who do you got? I'm going to go with France as well. Okay.

Bob is 19. Taking Croatia because he presents a smoke. Oh. Oh wow Hank. She also has some really great policies probably. Yeah. What about those? I like her brain.

What do you think about her domestic economics stimulus plan? I think it's great. I did like that. Taking them this far. Iced tea's wife Coco. She like, there was pictures and everyone's like, look, it's the Croatian president and everyone retweeted it and was like, actually, no, that's Coco. I know that ass from a million miles away.

All right. Let's do, before we get to Mount Rushmore, we have a couple drunk ideas. Hank, what do you got? You said it was really stupid, but I think your stupid ideas are always your best. All right. So you guys know Fig Newtons. Mm-hmm. But the inside is Fig.

Mm-hmm. Chocolate Newtons. Oh. Okay. They're just cookies. Yeah. Just like a Milano. Yeah.

But if Fig Newtons, if there's any Fig Newtons employees out there, you're trying to like expand the brand. Yeah. Chocolate Newtons. They did like, In the same package. But it's just a cookie. It's just a regular cookie.

Yeah. But I hear what Hank's saying. It's a Fig Newton, but instead of the Fig in the middle, it's chocolate. Yeah. Like a cream? Yeah. Okay. Like a chocolate cream pie.

Yeah. I like that. Yeah. You are a cream pie guy. They did a raspberry one. A raspberry one. That was pretty good. Yeah.

I mean, the only problem with it is like, you eat a Fig Newton because it's kind of healthy. So it's like, I'm not really eating cookies. Now you put chocolate in it. It's like, might as well just have an Oreo. It's basically a Nutri-Grain bar before you put chocolate in it, right? Yeah. Exactly. Yeah.

Nutri-Grain bars. Nutri-Grain bars and chewy granola bars. Mm-hmm. Best racket ever. Mm-hmm. Those are just fucking candy bars. All it is is just chocolate and then whatever they put in cigarettes that make you shit. Yeah.

That's all fiber one bars. I mean, chewy went all the way. They're like, you know what? We're going to own it. We'll just put M&Ms in it. Mm-hmm. And it's like, yeah, this is not a granola bar anymore. Yeah.

Our name is something like Kashi. Yeah. You put an accent in there. So it looks like it's very, very healthy. What do you have, PFT? So mine goes back. We were talking about France earlier. I just want to start selling drugs in France.

Ooh. That's my idea. Okay. So I think that there's a lot of money to be made. Like I said, they're all smokers over there. You give it. They're sitting there. They're probably full after maybe an hour and a half.

Give them a little joint. They get hungry again. They still, they're not going to go anywhere. They stay at the restaurant. Plus, here's something that I noticed about France. So make France Amsterdam. Yes. Here's something I noticed about France.

In French, their word for 80, do you know what it is? 69. 420. Oh. Catrevin. Sweet. What? It literally means 420.

That's how they say the number 80 in France. So I think they're selling a signal. How do you say 420? Catrevin. No, but how do you say 80 then? Catrevin. And then Catrevin. Okay.

I'm confused. Okay. The number 80 is Catrevin. Yeah. So if you were to say like 86, it'd be Catrevin. Cease, I think. So, but where has 420 come in? This is tough.

They just love 420 is what I'm getting at. So let's start selling drugs in France. They have two 420s. This isn't fucking rocket science. Yeah, I know. I'm just saying, let's sell a shitload of illegal drugs in France. I think Hank was on my side there. That one's got us really pretzels.

Is that a woe? Yeah. I like, I don't understand how... 79, 420, 81. Yeah, if you're asking someone... No, no, and then 81 is 421. And then 82 is 422. What is 90?

Yeah, but then... 90 is 430. No, 90 is 42010. But how do you tell the difference? Catrevin. Dece. How do you tell the difference between 420 and 80? Like if you're trying to tell someone, I'm going to give you 420 dollars.

Yeah. I'm going to give you, I don't know what the number 400 is. That's the part. See, that's where I'm pretzels. Okay, so here's another thing we can do. We can make a shitload of money short changing people in France. Yes, yes, just paying them 80 when they ask for 420. No, that's 420.

Yeah. Okay, now we got the real idea. Yeah, okay. Sell drugs for an exorbitantly high price in France. Yes. Alright, I have my drunk ideas, a pretty drunk idea, but what do you guys think is the... We're not big art guys, right? What do you think is like the highest level of art that has ever existed?

Sistine Chapel. Okay. That blue painting with the line in the middle? Okay, you're both wrong. That's sold for like 40 million? You're both wrong. I would say it might be a gift. No, I'm talking about dog art.

We need more dog art. Art with dogs in it. Okay. Everyone would buy that. It's the art that like, you know, dumb brains can buy and high level brains can buy. So I think we need to corner the market on dog art. Like dogs playing poker? Kind of like that, but like, let's expand it.

Dogs doing everything. I actually once owned a portrait of a bulldog sitting in a throne and it was supposed to be the king of England. Okay. Pretty fucking cool, right? Yeah. What if we just took all the classic works of art and instead put dogs in them? That also works.

Norman Rockwell. Yeah. But dogs. Mona Lisa, but it's a German Shepherd. Yeah. I like that. Yeah. Okay.

Alright, so we just need someone. Liam, can you do that? Can you make the dog heart? Yeah. Like we should... Just did it. Do that again. That was pretty good, Liam.

This is Liam. Alright, dog art. Coming soon. Pardon my take, dog art. Or what if it was art that was made by dogs? Also good. Okay. Yeah.

We can go anywhere with this. Alright. Yeah. Alright, let's do our Mount Rushmore. Before we do that, actually, let me quickly shout out Bud Light. It is summertime. You need a refreshing Bud Light. Bud Light, lime and oranges are out now brewed with real orange and lime peels.

Famous among friends, Bud Light, lime and orange. It's a hot summer day and you're reaching for that cold, cold brew. Well, Bud Light, lime and orange hits the spot. Get it now. Bud Light, lime and orange. Real orange and lime peels. Famous among friends. Thanks to Bud Light.

Alright, Mount Rushmore of reality television shows. Who would like to go first? Liam, why don't you decide who goes first? Because I feel like any other way would be unfair. Heck, you can start. Okay. Alright, Hank, P.F.D., me. Let's do it.

Alright, number one reality show of all time. This is a tough number one. This is really hard. Because I'm going to play for my heart. I'm not going to go for the popular vote. I don't care. My number one reality show of all time is the challenge. That is a weak first pick, though.

No, it's a good one. I have seen pretty much every season. You've never watched it. It's one of those things where I watch it when I was young. I watch it now. It never gets old. P.J. Lavin never gets old. P.F.D., you're in the minority.

Disagree. You are in the minority. No. When Johnny Bananas came in, you're like, who's that? And then there was another guy, wasn't there? C.T. might be the greatest athlete of all generation. Well, huh? Wes on steroids.

True. When Wes did steroids, he was like Bo Jackson. He lacked the clutch gene, though. He was always in it, but he could never. He was a mental midget. He owned 100 companies. So this guy, Wes, C.T.'s rival, he basically showed up one year and was like, I'm a really good investor and I own 100 companies.

And it just turned out that he just bought stocks, like a couple stocks here and there. And he's like, yeah, I found it a bunch of companies. I love it. I love it. So my first one is going to be cops. Okay. That's a good one. Cops is a classic.

I also like the format of it. It's short and it hooks you in. One thing they do when they play a marathon of cops, right when the in credit of Bad Boys by Inner Circle is done, the start of Bad Boys by Inner Circle just hits immediately. Yeah. It's one long show. No. Cops is a great one.

I obviously add it on my list. I love cops. I've watched, like I'm Malcolm Gladwell's 10,000 Hours. I have 10,000 Hours of Cops. I've watched the shit, literally. It always surprised me. I love seeing the same person show up on cops twice, like the same dude gets arrested on different episodes.

Yes. And to see in the best part about cops is like when they throw like the 80s cops in there, it's so awesome. We're all in agreement that the best cop on cops was the guy that had just like the four-head flat top with the mustache, who's from New Jersey, you remember that guy? Short built like a fire hydrant? I'm partial to the woman who got pulled over and she was like blackout drunk and the cop was like, have you been drinking?

And she's like, I had a Snickers earlier. No, no, no. We got to talk about, I'm talking about the cop from cops. He was the best cop of all time on cops. Somebody out there figure out who that guy is because he's amazing. Yeah. All right. I got two.

All right. I'm going to go Jersey Shore, revolutionize the game. At that one. Revolutionize the game. It was a cultural phenomenon. And then my personal favorite, dog the bounty hunter. Oh, shit. That's a good one.

Yeah. Go with Christ, bro. Go with Christ. Go with Christ, bro. Leland. Okay. Leland. Cuff him.

And he just takes out his little zip lock thing. Yeah. That's not even cuffs. That Leland's braid was so long you could wipe his ass with it. Yeah, Leland. That was the grossest braid I've ever seen in my life. The best was when Beth would just get like really pissed and get out of the car once in a while and just start yelling at someone like, I can't believe you're doing ice around

me all around these kids. Yeah. And then there's a church right down the street and the dog would be like, Beth, get back in the car. Get back in the car. Get back in the car. And then Beth and then dog would be like, give me that ice and then he would just stop it with his boot and be like, all right, now it's time for Christ.

It's like, boom. He'd be like, I'm not going to say anything about the ice, but you know, I got to take you in. And the best part was at the end of like their trip back to the police station, the convict would always end up thanking dog. Yeah. They do an intervention in the car, in the van and he'd be like, you know what, dog, you're right.

Change my life. Right. All right. My second one, that was a strong one. My second one is going to be, I had a signed dog, the bounty hunter picture above my bed in college. No joke. My buddy went to Hawaii and tracked down their offices.

I'm going to go with hard knocks as number two hard knocks is so good that they can make the Kansas City Chiefs. Although, although it's kind of gone downhill. I'm going to say it, but no, this year it's going to be back. Okay. I'm not just absolutely back with Baker Mayfield. It's going to go to it's been. Josh Gordon.

It's gone. I'm going to go with Jackson. That's a defense shield response because. I think hard knocks has had a bad, like five years. Bad three years. The Bengals and the Jets were fire. Yeah. Rex Ryan hard knocks is like the last good hard knocks.

No, that's not true. That's not true. It's been tough. It's been tough. All right. Hank, you got two. I'm going to go with flavor of love. Oh, good.

Solid. And lagoon beach. That's good too. I was obsessed with a Kyrsten Cavalleri. That's good. I thought about taking the Cavalry show the new one just to fuck with big cat pretty early But I'm not gonna take it. Yeah after one episode pretty early, but it could be up there So instead I'm gonna go with real world. So the granddaddy of them all real world is very especially shout out to

The Hawaii season with Ruthie. Yeah, Ruthie and attack. Yeah, and then the guy they got friends-owned. Yeah Yeah, and yeah, I mean I remember watching my first real world was Miami. That was the first gay person I ever met Daniel do you remember when puck spat on that dude? Yes. Well, that was that was the real first one San Francisco He spat on the gay guy. Yeah, and then the guy Dark shit not because No, he went to an Iggy Pop concert because of the spit, okay All right. I so I love real world real world always has a special spot in my heart I do think it is the like Godfather show, but I think the most popular

Reality show of all time and one that every single person has ever watched survivor. Yep. That I mean That's it's it's hard to to go against Even you can even I'm not even a die-hard survivor guy, but I've watched seasons been like this shows awesome Sometimes I think back to season one because they had the big Burley naked gay man Richard right his name and then they had the old Navy seal Rudy Yes, and they were the perfect odd couple going at each other But I think back to that like if that were on TV right now I don't think anyone bad and I like oh, it's another big fat guy walking around naked on camera

Yeah, that's just what we call Tuesday now It was also back of the day when one million dollars felt like a billion dollars. Yeah, like this guy's got one million dollars He's never gonna have to work again in his life. Oh This is tough. This is tough for the last one This is going to be a this is gonna be one that's probably gonna get me some downvotes, but I still loved it John and Kate plus eight. Oh Jesus such a weird awesome show that show suck No, that show was awesome. It was better after the show ended Yeah, well John went through his midlife

That show was so fucked up DJ and just stuck a bicycle bump into his face and got bloated cheeks That show was one of those shows you didn't want to watch and then it came on You're like how can I turn or turn away this show they hate each other so much you watch a divorce happened like live on air And you just couldn't like they did a show. It's like oh It's about supposed to be about our eight cute kids is like nope It's about the fact that the mom and dad fucking hate each other and her passive aggressive constantly. All right All right, my last one. Okay. This is kind of a wild card I'm gonna go with cheaters. Okay with Joey Greco. Yeah, that one's gonna date you but I mean obviously

I remember when Joey Greco got cheaters was a goat Joey Greco got stabbed breaking up a couple that was getting into a fight Mm-hmm The best was like before he would go and catch the cheaters He would be like hiding out literally sometimes around a corner or behind a dumpster and he'd be like those are the cheaters right there They're making out. I'm gonna go invade them. Is that one of those shows. It was fake though. No, no No, don't don't I remember I watched that. It's called reality TV Hank the guy The repo man I found out that was fake. That was the most Ruin me. Yeah, that ruined me when someone's like, dude, you know, that's fake

I'm like, well, I just wasted five years of my life that I had storage wars on my list But that when I found that storage were just fake. I was crushed. I still put it on my list Is it about us like it most of our shows are just about people breaking up with each other? Yeah, it's fun to watch other people be miserable. Mm-hmm. My last one I don't I feel like I'm gonna sound like a fucked up person for this, but To catch a predator was one of the most entertaining shows of all time Good one all-time moment the guy who spilled the margarita in the backyard the doctor and then like through his phone when he got Arrested that was so fucked up. It was it's a fucked up show, but hard not to watch

So the very very first episode of that was filmed in my buddy's neighborhood Well, like right around the corner for my friend's house So we they would go back there Whoa, and we used to just like watch stand outside of the porch and watch these creeps pull up in their cars Whoa, yeah, it's fucked up. Yeah, we missed a lot. So let's talk about it Okay, fear factor fear factor was a good one. He was on my list I love I love New York, but I feel like I'm in the minority there Like I feel like a lot of people don't either didn't watch it or don't remember it

But pumpkin in New York all time. Well, that was from that was flavor of love But the spin-off I love New York. Yep. Yeah all time. Yeah all-time character I would also submit the ultimate fighter because what do we watch reality show for usually it's the fights and the fights aren't that good They're just like somebody gets slapped and that's like the big storyline for the week Yep an ultimate fighter. You actually had like a 10 minute long fight. Yes. Yeah, they're the other VH what VH One shows surreal life and rock of love rock of love and celebrity rehab. Yep. We're awesome Rock of love was so good two days What's today's you don't oh you call yourself football guy, huh?

Yeah, so like next. Yeah Remember next mm-hmm the fifth wheel or third wheel shot of love with tequila tequila. Yeah, she's a Nazi. Yeah Room Raiders Yeah, it's catfish.

You followed the people for the whole season right as well renamed room Raiders. Just like let's see how much come is on this guy's Bed, yes, pretty much pretty much Singled out runs house singled out runs house. That's a good one a lot of wisdom at the end of those guys remember My big fat obnoxious fiance. I don't that was a really good one So they took this this really really attractive girl and they said okay We're gonna give you I think a million dollars But you have to convince your parents that you got engaged to this slob It was just this big fat dude who was just like out of control

You like burp and fart and scratch himself everywhere show up shirtless and her family was like very very straight laced And so she had to spend like I think six months or four months Living with her parents like convincing them that this was her actual that's pretty good show and then but she didn't get the money I don't think because her father objected to the wedding and said I'm not paying for this wedding if you're marrying this guy Okay, these punked in there. Is that reality show at the same thing way like though the shows are just one episode of yeah Like I feel like reality show has to follow Stool scenes And then I feel like people are gonna mad if we don't say like real housewives of film the black

Yeah, but I never I never got into the show sound like Michael Rappaport. I've watched a little bit of New York and a little bit of They're all blend together Out in the West Coast so Yeah, oh Top chef. I love the top shop chef was dead The Gordon Ramsay show like in the beginning like when he was actually a hard-ass those are great They kind of got soft. Yeah, is bar rescue a reality show. I see I Damn it

Okay, I never thought of that because the Hanks kind of right I actually kind of agreed like if you don't have the same characters throughout it kind of like it has to be John Taffer Fuck no that counts. That counts reality show and I was on it twice not not trying to brag That's why it's not on your Mount Rushmore. Fuck. Yeah, I mean it would be very it would be a gross move of me to Right, so credit to credit to you for not doing that. Yeah, that's the only reason I didn't and Bobbo just texted jackass Which was probably the worst one we missed. I don't know if that was a reality show I mean, it's pretty yeah

I think so because would you say the Bam Margera the show the spin-off was a reality show because it definitely Yeah, Viva LaBam. Yeah, but Viva LaBam had there was like a storyline to a jackass was just a stunt stunt stunt Jackass was not no I'm gonna put draw a line this end jackass was not a reality show a Television program in which ordinary people are continuously filmed designed to be entertaining rather than informative Okay, so he was not jackass people were not continuously filmed true. They set up the stunts. Yeah, that's true Boom, okay, but Viva LaBam could have been on there And I loved Viva LaBam just watching Bam Margera like beat the fuck out of his dad

He's really fun shit. His dad didn't take it All of his friends were addicted to heroin really cool. His dad didn't take a comfortable shit for like seven years And oh and Don Vito the breakout star Some weird shit go on. Yeah, so we have really fun show So if there's a lesson to be learned out there if you get a chance to appear on a reality show, you should take it All right Tell us what we missed treat us that part of my take I'm sure we missed some good like there will definitely be a few that I wake up and someone treated me like fuck

He has a new book Encyclopedia laser tannica bite on Amazon do it. It is a great book and the Gideon Bible, but about soccer Yeah, these are the hotel rooms when you're on the road Yeah, just like leaving behind they're in every red roof in in America. Yeah, I'm sure Americans love that I'll just check into their $30 hotel room and learn about soccer. That's the the American way Raj we have to show them we have to start with Can we just say we're here on a night of great musical history?

Yeah, it's a good point. So it is July 12th right now. It is fun fact about July 12th It's pup punks debut. We're backstage and the Rolling Stones also debuted on July 12. Yeah I fell asleep. Yeah, I gotta say the atmosphere here is like electric I feel like we're at the cavern the first night the Beatles ever played it To be here for like pussy punk when they play their first gig is like an honor of a life pussy punk That's the name of the band. I like that. That's actually a better name than pup That is I might change it could be the splinter band by the way quick question for you Have you guys worked out what happens when this joke band becomes a serious band when like the reaction is quite good

And then like live nation comes in and there's like Let's tour the thing and you're like, we'll do it as a joke and then maybe Spotify come in and go maybe just as a joke Release an album. Yeah The show I Leave big cat in the dust I develop a crippling Never I'm never talking to big cat again after tonight. This has been a fantastic filibuster by the way by Raj to not let us bring up England. Yes. Oh, can we can we as well practice being afraid we do it's coming home in the face

You can do it's coming home. No, it doesn't feel the same anymore Well, no the song has changed the song this summer is no longer. It's coming home now It's don't look back in anger. You guys love that fucking song You'll sing don't look back in anger like yeah, they honest you get the force to do songs It's coming home and don't look back in anger. They both sound like a cut from Tracy Chapman's debut album to me They're both unbelievably depressing. It's coming home. The funny thing about it. It started as a joke It was ironic at the beginning two of the greatest comedians of my generation in England created it with the England Team in the 90s just the litany of failure to understand about England like I'm watching yesterday

When England watch which is still so when England lost which is still so raw like I didn't just watch England in the semi-final of a world Cup I watched with 11-year-old roge who watched the 1982 team the first time I'd seen them in the World Cup Self-sabotage they promised me before that game. They've released their own single which said this time more than any other time We're gonna find a way to win it all and I played that single in the run-up to the World Cup all the blood He's out. These are mine. These are profits. They're not just footballers They're gonna and they were crap and it was like every World Cup since then they've been Borderline crap and so yesterday watching England lose 11-year-old roge sat beside me 15-year-old roge 19-year-old

All those who'd seen self-sabotage failure the raw open wounds you can understand as a Bears fan Neil Anderson He's gonna save the day and and so yesterday was incredible. It was like a symphony of failure Playing alongside the distant glimmer glimmer of hope and then that hope which we manifested itself with an incredibly early goal Which wasn't just the goal. It was like an biblical exorcism. Yeah, we can do this forget the darkness There's only light and then with the world watching they shut their pants and I mean this one is well done You're taking Croatia. Yeah, the run was fantastic. I like I was joking about that. I'm coming It's coming home, but I actually watched a ton of those clips because that's what sports is about you watch the clips You I watched the clip of the the wedding where these two people get married and they just started screaming

It's fucking coming home and they start screaming it again. You get chills watching about 20% together But here's here's what I will say the winner it was amazing There's a lot of winners from this World Cup and we'll get to some more of them But the English their ability to throw beers on each other and do massive amounts of cocaine in public We're still well. They are undefeated by the way when when England finally wilted and In the crucible of pressure like it was a crucible of pressure for these young kids

So England in this in think about American sports young teams that England essentially Shouldn't have been there. They are young. They're naive. They're optimistic. They don't know to be afraid In love with them they're doing their thing and then the Croatians equalize and then there's just an incredible Out of pressure these young guys who grew up in towns all over England are running around the football field trying to play the sport that muscle Memory dictates that they move but in their head They're in a monologue is suddenly like young Roger 11 year old 50 on they've seen England fail so sabotage humiliated scapegoat and They they're like we are they're like men drowning and they they're thinking what what do we do here?

All we know is in England that loses. I've got to say in England that wins is such an alien concept Right, it's like trading with you said think about space going on infinitely like I can't conceive of that I can't think of numbers go on forever I can't think of an England that wins and we watch human beings try desperately to do something incredibly creative Which is think of an England that wins and ultimately they couldn't do it. Don't take away our failure. It's all we are We're good at throwing beers in the air world champions, and we're good at losing So we know so that's why Raheem Sterling falls down every time he's close to the goal Right, you just described it's going through his head every single time he falls down when he's about to so

Well rather thing of complicated things Raz is a singular figure He's an unbelievably gifted player and athlete But he's also scapegoated for all four reasons by the tabloid media mostly to be candid because he's black and he's Brash and he's an England will not stand for that. It does not like that. They they've scapegoated him They've humiliated him. So I don't watch this world cup and he's a fantastic player He did things that terrified the opponent's created space for his teammates. He did he did wonderful things He had a great world cup, but you could tell every time he broke through he runs like Wilmer from Scooby-Doo You could tell like when he pulled that foot back to shoot it go you're asking him. What was he thinking?

I think he's thinking do I shoot here if it goes in I'll be the hero more Lamborghinis if I don't I'll be the scapegoat I'll be humiliated. Do I pass to Harry Kane? He's the king. Where's Harry Kane? If I don't pass people are gonna mop me They're gonna say I'm an arrogant man again, and I think ultimately we undermine Raz. We did him at this service He's a remarkable human being so love razz. Do you actually believe that you know all these all the past failures weighing on them? All these like tiny little thoughts are running through their head Or is that you being just a neurotic English person saying oh they must take on my personality as well Not just a neurotic English person, but Jewish person Ultimately to take it to the next level of truth and facts for you guys

I mean why did England do so well in this world cup as opposed to every other world cup pretty much in my lifetime? And it's because I became an American three weeks true. They're like quite a to you It's like the Ewing theory. It's like the Jewish Ewing. Yeah, when like doing yeah, they got rid of me through me over So you need to convert to Christianity. We are free of the curse. You've got to convert to Christianity See how well our people can or could you say rise up? I think for what Jerry for well listen to your podcast I'm sure you're listening Jerry. Let's have some theological chat after this Joe lost the YouTube step up Jerry You're your prize people Sam Ponder is also a big fan of the spot

So that's it England that ultimately Rev I will say one thing about England or two things about England One is in sincere and a sincerity has a dangerous place within the realm of this podcast But I'm gonna throw it out the sad thing for me and there's a deep sadness watching England yesterday I did shed a tear. I found it really upsetting watching them lose and by the way, I support the US. I love the US I'm all in I'm all in Starsky hutch all you guys. I'm team US But what's in England right now England? I don't know if you've noticed we used to have an empire We're now trying to do the best to absolutely Destroy the last remnants with Brexit and so England right now is so angry. It's so splintered

It's so self-destructive and for the past month the front pages of newspaper are about in a country That is destroying itself. It is dark. The government is failing There's just it's a country that is like Atlantis that's sinking below the waterline And if you flick through English newspapers dark front pages the back pages were amazing It was full of joy this team briefly unified the nation and it was a multicultural team in the cooking Yeah, the cocaine is in the middle But the team on the back razz from Jamaica you got kids who's born in Nigeria playing for the England team Harry Kane His dad's out. It was a multi-cultural. It was the main card. I love him

He's a way you can spit all he wants He's he's spitting hero spit and we drink it up You could bottle that spit and I would buy it and give it to my kids for Hanukkah Here's what I'd say is like for a month There was a force in England that briefly unified the nation and and that we lost that yesterday Do you think that maybe Boris Johnson and and everything that's going on with him was like a well We that was our leader and we can't win any more soccer games of Boris isn't on our team Yeah, Boris is one of the crazy great tacticians. He's probably like the coach K of

English politics. Yeah, okay was a total and that's a knob end who Was trying to destroy the game a basketball Forces her was jet black if you died his hair then yeah, somehow stays jet coach K is amazing. It's amazing So all right, so England don't don't and the world World Cup I have a theory I told you I Eluded this before it's been an amazing world cup. Well, here's my theory world cup. Here's my life time The US Not making this world cup. Yeah is actually the best thing that has ever happened

For soccer in America and I say that why I'll take here's why I say that follow me fact the US making the world cup every year and not you know either they get knocked on the 16 round or they don't make it out of the group stage and Every all the soccer haters in the US can say well, we stink at this sport. We're never gonna be good It's boring. We're not like top of the level with the US removed. Yeah, you watch this world cup And yeah, obviously a lot of it had to do with how amazing it was all the goals and extra time and everything But people got to enjoy soccer for soccer and not worry about are we good enough? Is the US up there with them?

They just got to enjoy the game and it's been like freeing for a lot of the soccer I've noticed there's been a lot less people who have been like they can't point to it and be like well We stink at soccer the sport will never catch on. Yeah, they say instead this turner. It's been amazing. I'm captivated Yeah, I think that's I mean we said before the world cup. I think even on this This incredibly on the record show that the greatest world cups of my life have been the ones in England when I was a kid Didn't qualify for which 78 and then 1990 in the US It was because like we know England were crap. They were gonna crap out It's so stressful watching you preparing for your team to just self-combust

We were free of like the sword of Damocles sporting sword of Damocles of like when will the US go out? We could just watch with wonder as like we watch Ronaldo You know crap out which is just yeah, we watch we watch we a made us they made the whole world that man made the whole world the whole world Stare at his groin for 20 seconds. I mean, yeah, it's not that tough to do He's a handsome man. By the way, it's an incredible way to go out. They staring at men's quads is back. Yeah, we talked about Messy failing in a most human way possible where like the truly great feel a sadness which is deeper than Russia Going Russia going as far as they thought they'd be spain should be spain and the silencing thing nothing to do with doping what so ever it's like a team of Russian Brady

Anderson right charge charging all over the field and then crapping out on penalty By the way penalty shootouts when you interview players you've taken a penalty shootout They talk about just being like playing Russian roulette is the single most stressful thing that you can ever do I Think like to be a Russian Taking a yes, well, you know you either have glory or the gulag Those are the two options warrior the good I cannot think in sports of anything like penalty shootouts for everybody. That's the need to shut the hell up That's easy. Yeah, but you understand what I'm saying like the the the meatball

American I was I could Germany failing I could see a German fan, but I can speak as I was this guy my only happiness 2014 yeah every year I would be like I'm sick of hearing that you know the US is gonna do something in the World Cup Yeah, without that you basically get to silence all the like they can't what did you like? That's why one because you've been an incredible support and I thought was this just because he's a big Swinging owner of a very important football team. He's trying to support the sport. No, I Actually think the owners are you really enjoying no I enjoyed I think that France was probably the most entertaining team at the tournament watching those guys play like you It doesn't matter what sport if you could be a football fan

Like American football and turn on a French game and be impressed by him Bop a and be impressed by that whole team really like the Way they attack, but even then it's fun Even France didn't have a good group stage, but like the group stage had a ton of story Germany not making it that game where they were where South Korea somehow beats them Germany not making it by the way Was like for the first time ever was like it was like seeing Darth Vader like walk towards you And then just trip over his own shoe. Yeah, it was like so that I mean thank God They have a word for taking pleasure in someone else's failure. It was genuinely probably England's greatest Sporting achievement of all time was German

France still I'm an American now I'm American, but the last vestige of my English is it I find it very I'm not okay with French happiness and French success That's fine. I have a very difficult relationship with I find it really but I'm back a who you mentioned Yeah, I love the word and back 19. I'm scared to ask this question of both of you But like whatever I'm watching playing if you've not seen if you're not seeing the second and World Cup play and back a Is this 19 year old kid who was a good? I mean a great player already A great player who does things with the football. It's like watching at times

It's like the and one toy. He's like the professor in the and one tool Yeah, but he's actually able to do it in the professional game Ray Frost. Yeah, God love. Yeah, he did So he's like that, but he does the same bolt if you see him both But he does it in like the in the in the in the in game seven of the eight That's where he's doing it He's not doing it on some like some playground somewhere with multiple takes he's doing it under the crucible of pressure He's 19 and whenever I watch him I think about what was I doing when I was 19 and I'm scared to ask you both that question Mm-hmm. I mean, I know I was like very interested in mixtapes

I can tell you didn't be as I was very interested in soccer. Uh-huh. I can tell you what I wasn't doing I definitely wasn't having sex so you can check that off the list I think I'm back. I say, you know what I was doing. I was I was not changing my role and getting yelled at for breaking I was so I was so responsible I couldn't I couldn't take my car into a garage once every nine months I was yeah, I was drinking a beer called Mountain Creek in Madison, Wisconsin You could buy four. I think it was a 24 pack for like four dollars because it was the body was like the Miller and the Milwaukee's best all their The cast off the other cast of the very bottom percentage of their of their many ways

Anyway, I'm more attractive to your 19-year-old life than I am to him It's pretty bloody amazing. Yeah, I'm puking puking every single morning. Yeah, I was actually too much I was taking mental notes of where keystone or where a natural light 24 packs were sold for 1299 Yeah, and where they were sold for 1399 and I would go to the cheap store. I actually also bought the You're like you're like the billy bean of beer. I can oh yeah, it's like Billy Carter That was that was when Barry Bonds was Barry Bonds was going through all his home runs and doing the cream So I remember I bought the cream online and it didn't work. Yeah, so there you can

Around that so I'm back pay amazing. Yes, we've established that so that you get it. Yeah, go ahead. It's my show now I'm low on my tell you what they keep getting it. You didn't answer my question either. So now your theory question I think I'll just say it's rubbish. No, the theory because the thing England have really impacted you in your psyche the theory is absolutely bang-on the only thing is it's not just a world cup There's other factors of the driven it I mean world cup to world cup since 1994 when the US had it when when the US were awarded the 1994 World Cup Jack Kemp. We've talked about this Yeah, I said for the first time I brought up with you

I said the famous Buffalo Bills Corsair back and you let into the money we cut that part out And you said the quite ordinary of mediocre Buffalo Bills caught back He took to the floor of Congress and he felt compelled to be like, yeah We need to teach America's youth that football is where you throw it and punt it and catch it and rush with it And not where you kick it and don't use your hands because one is American democracy and the other is European Socialism And I was like such a hatred of soccer back then 1994 kind of planted a flag. There was still so much hate What I think 2018's legacy has been it's been we vaporize that hate that hate really Outside of I think your camera guy. I think it's like that. He is the diminishing force

It does feel that it's partially that and it's partially also learning to hate Neymar So that that is that is the one part of this world cup that I've seen more Americans complain about Yeah, I'm actually the opinion that I think it's flopping. It's hilarious I it's gone so far past though over theatric and over dramatic that I think it's genuinely funny that he does I think it's so harsh on Neymar. I mean I see him as a profiling courage and bravery I just see the pain the agony the I mean just the savage

Uh, just damage that is done to his body. He feels gravity more than normal human beings, first of all And then his pain cells his pain cells feel the pain just extraordinary We can't understand that and to watch him like literally he loses limbs in the game We don't see it because they don't show it's like Joe Thyson. He responds it like a Don't show that leg break again They don't show the Neymar leg break and unlike Joe Thyson. He's an amazing American legend and I admire him greatly John Riggins all those guys Neymar gets up when he's broken had his leg broken and he says don't worry lads. I'm gonna brush this off

I'm gonna plan because I love Brazil. Yes, he does. It's amazing. He was limitless It's like I've seen in the longest day where John Wayne just he has a compound fracture He just ties his boot up at your site and walks it off. Thank you. That's what you're not Neymar is the new John Wayne. It's amazing Honestly, if it Neymar, I think Neymar was born in the wrong time because if he was born like around zero BC is that a year? Yeah. Yeah, we would write a bible about him Yeah, he just performed routine miracles every game on himself on himself Got up again the most horrific injury he turned he turned water into water that falls out of a magic sponge that heals himself

But also Brazil this crazy Can we say that? What's that? We like to say we like to basically The way we think about sports is either you're you're for real or you're a fraud. Yeah, brazil hot frauds You know what? I don't know what you're talking about, but I'm so into it right now Can I say brazil is this football crazy country like when you interview a manager from brazil They say and this is probably like it's probably like being the red socks manager or something in in in the american realm They say like brazil is a country of 270 million and everyone thinks that he is the knows better than the coach of brazil Like the pressure on those guys

Neymar came into this tournament injured like he wasn't really in form And you were just watching messy in his day We chatted about messy that he was a he was like a LeBron playing with 10 JR Smith and it was just a a disaster of a world cup for him But whenever he got the ball he tried to make the incredibly complicated look incredibly simple neymar Injured not quite right that incredible crucible of pressure. He tried to make the incredibly simple look Incredibly complicated over and over again. Did you see the story? A russian man has divorced his wife because she would not stop saying that ronaldo

Was better than messy and not stop making fun of messy. Yeah, do you think that that's fair? I mean, I think ultimately. Yeah, I mean, it's a it's a big story trapped in a small story If you're ronaldo or messy, it's your inner core. You're inner values. I think what's why you're asking me this? This is a true Like the true symbolism of rush. It's the russian nesting doll. Yeah, it is it is when when you when you say to your partner I love ronaldo I think it's probably if you don't love ronaldo something just dies inside and you just know You know what? We don't have kids. We can both tear this thing up walk away before we do damage to the world

I understand it. What don't you understand about? Loving ronaldo because you'll no matter what you'll never love ronaldo more than he loves himself well, and also You can make the argument that that zlatan zoltan From sweden our guy and he's the same way, but I disagree. I think he actually believes that he's god So in his mind, he loves all of us so much because he's giving himself to us with ronaldo He's just staring in the mirror. Well, ronaldo. Yeah, and ronaldo if you love ronaldo It's an amazing theory if you believe that zlatan actually believes what he's saying that it's not just marketing

No, it's not. No, that's real if he really is a biblical prophet He's like walking around being like children. I will If you follow my ways, I will all all will be shodden with shoes even the poor and the weak and we're just like oh That's just nike. Yeah, that's why the mls is in good hands. Jesus christ himself plays forward for the So we sold us that something Ever something But going back to your husband and wife, I think the ronaldo and the messy thing does transcend just sports It's not like, you know, is it lebron? Is it, you know, is it golden toe or hueso or whatever?

It's not sports. I mean ronaldo and messy are two. They're essentially two value sets. The two outlooks are two ways of viewing the world in every regard Rinaldo is a cold Heartless loveless marriage. It's like a business partnership. Yeah, but when you when you when you rub your hands over His nipples. Yeah, but they missy. They say they say in braille. They say fuck. Yeah. No see messy is love messy Is I think is like, you know, it likes falling in love for the first time I think messy is like adopting a really a really old sick dog

Because like you love him and he's cute sometimes and Every now and again like a trick that he used to do but you know in the end He's just gonna shit on the carpet. Whoa. He still did a lot of tricks. He had a couple couple assists Really I'm against France. I mean like a really good The goal that messy scored was one of the greatest moments not just in messy's life Not just in football, but in my life watching him against nigerian the crucible of pressure Yes, he brought a ball down that was like it came from it was from a catapult in several continents Several time zones in russia where he brought it down with an incredibly simple touch

It was in front of him. He had the pressure of just that whole nation on his shoulders He was just it's like an incredible free free throw just like on the schoolyard. He said to himself I'm just on the schoolyard and he just finished in the most beautiful way making the incredible body shape It was so wonderful to see it genuinely I I imagine messy will not remember that moment in a couple of years time is one of the greatest moments of my life I wish I was in mosco. I will never forget it. It's one of my greatest achievements watching messy do that thing Ronaldo moved. This is amazing Just ahead of the greatest world cup semi final Belgium fans Ronaldo announced. He was moving. Yes

Possibly one of the biggest moving Uh announcements since uh rapper port left bar still probably out there probably slightly lesser in uh That was I'll give it all though the credit on that one. Yeah, that was a flair for the dramatic I'm not going to criticize him. Yeah, it was similar to a rod announcing that he was uh Hopped it out and I'm not going to criticize a rod either during the world series So most on lynch the entire jungle super boy. Yeah, it was actually a very nice move by Ronaldo the one good thing He's ever done. It's amazing. I mean when you reveal your nipples so often to the same fan base is a diminishing margin of returns on nipple Unveiling

So I've got double the amount. So there's a little extra. I genuinely cannot wait to see your band tonight He's doing an encore But that's it. He had to move he had to have a fresh audience for the for the nippledge. All right. Seeky question promo code take Right. We haven't done a Seeky question. Yeah, uh, you see kick Huh, did you use Seeky when you were in Russia? It's just now product. He did. He used Seeky and you use promo code take And he got $10 off his ticket. Uh, go to Seeky download the app use promo code take Um, when they don't have Seeky in Russia, you have to get high enough level in the party and then you get ticket Okay, it works. Uh, when when you guys are coming home because you're bringing all the brits home, right?

The lads are coming home. Are you going to send like a thousand now you keep I feel like Are you gonna send like a thousand to evaluate them out of Russia? Or are you just going to let them come home on on one big plane? I think many of them full of in you know what the russians made these huge soviet sized beer Jails by the stadia for english fans. They were ready and they were prepared to just chuck them in there So I mean I expect some of our men some of our best men will not make it home But those best men and this is the lovely thing

I'll say this for you guys before your fans have the greatest night of their life watching you split up with big Cat because the music is going to take your soul Fill the music big cat. You don't understand me anymore is that What this team what this english team did they gave They gave everyone an incredible month. You you you remember you remember the bears superbowl, right?

Bubba mentioned robin big just a Huge miss on all of our parts one of the best I would have picked if I had thought of robin big I would it would have been one of my top two picks. Yep. Like that's how good robin big was Revolutionized the game for those who might not know robin big It was about a skateboarder who essentially got his own security guard to kick security guards. Everyone knows it Everyone knows robin big. Okay. Like you sure about that. Yeah. I want to fight anyone who doesn't I don't know Rest in peace big black. Yeah, fuck Manpons created manpons the creator of manpons. Yeah

Reality tv shows you remember temptation island. That was a good show too. That was pretty good. Yeah It's just like hey, let's put these couples on an island and see with a lot with a lot of slutty guys and girls Who are hot and just see if that's amazing. It's basically world. It's basically they made a reality show out of life Yeah, there's so many that i'm thinking of now. I hate myself. This is All right, so uh tweet us. Yeah robin big is that I'll I'll lose sleep over not thinking of robin big What about intervention? We even mentioned intervention early in the show. I had it on my list, but it didn't intervention was great It was either intervention to catch up at it. I was like when I'm here It's just a whole whole room full people that just care about you like heck. Yeah, so they want you to be okay

I've sat with I've sat with your your wife and your and your dad For the last three weeks and they just want to see you get better just a bunch of people that just care a whole head Will you take this offer today? So we're offering we're offering you some help. Yeah And then the other one they would leave this like oh Yeah, that's actually pretty dark. All right. Let's do some segments. We have talking tennis Oh Federer is over the hell Federer's a goat though. Oh

Well, I'm I'm thinking about doing a witch hunt with Federer. Has anybody ever looked into PEDs with him because it feels like he's been too good for too long So PED wow, that's yeah, this is worse than you saying Cal Ripken did PED Yeah, well nobody talks about it Cal Ripken probably did PEDs. Mm-hmm Roger Federer probably did PEDs Um, I don't want to say I'm not gonna go there. Okay. I'm not and then on the other side Serena we know she did PEDs. She she got a fetus. Yes. She got pregnant and as we all it's actually this is the most impressive thing That serena's ever done is making a grand slam final after she's been pregnant Serena is yeah gonna win again. So she's the goat everyone says best athlete of all time next secretary at one serena

I think you got to put american pharaoh In front of serena williams as well because remember a couple years ago when the horse won sportsperson of the year Yeah, that's true. Yeah, I love sportsperson of the year and people the two things sps and sportsperson of the year people get mad about that Guess what? It's not an actual thing. Um, all right. We have uh thoughts and prayers to papa john So he has stepped down from Being papa john. How does that work? Well, he's always gonna be papa john. Yeah So he uh used a racial slur on a conference call big no no

He was now he was saying that other people said a bad word Well, he was complaining that colonel sanders got to use the n word and then he used the n word by saying that Which I guess I guess that's fair. You're both two should be fast food magnets from kentucky How come this guy gets to say it and also nappy root says it in their songs. Why can't I say it too? Yeah, so uh papa john he is out. What a fall for papa john the height I I will point to and I said this the other day that papa john The kiss from Peyton Manning after super bowl 50. That was it That was the absolute top of the mountain

He didn't know at that point and then everything from there the rick patino stuff the shadow nfl government with roger giddell Terry jones was trying to get him to like. Yeah Yeah, we're to off roger giddell the the pizza sucking as always. That's kind of been a constant throughout Talk about that. Yeah so much, but credit to papa john for making it acceptable to sell a really really like world class At least shitty pizza for 1999. Yes, exactly. Well, they put those peppers in them. Yeah So now these are ripe in tomatoes. Yeah, you may the worst commercial of all time would be when uh Papa john used to just show up at people's doors delivering their pizzas like they'd be watching a football game He'd be like, hey, it's me papa john

You mind if I hang out for 30 minutes to talk about my pizza with you? You're like, no papa. We're just trying to watch you out of here, man Yeah, what a fucking arrogant fuck to be like when you think back like he put himself in every single commercial Yeah, chill out. People want to see more papa. So this was supposed to be a oh, no, it wasn't a spin zone It was just thoughts and prayers. Yeah, see you later papa john. See you later get out of here Um, one thing we have to consider though the louisville stadium the football stadium is named after papa john So are they going to take down that ban or two? I would personally like to see rick patino and by patrino take it down

Both of them like get on a scaffolding and they have to take it down Is this does this qualify as a mount rushmore of louisville scandals? Does this unseat the fact that the cardinal has teeth tough tough times for louisville, man Uh, chris mack will figure it out for you guys louisville. Ooh, rebel. Yeah, remember that one. Yeah, that was a good one Um, all right, we got a baby back bitch update Uh for kevin durant not for kevin durant because cj mcallum told us don't call him a baby back bitch anymore We're not going to for the guy who keeps trolling him. So kevin durant He is easily like the number one most triggered athlete of all time without a doubt

Why would you say like no, it's not even close. Yeah, I'd say so he gets into like Twitter instagram Yeah, I guess that's true. No, well is a knife. He's snowflake. Yeah. Yeah, but it wasn't triggered Aaron hernanus. Yeah. Okay, Aaron hernanus. So, uh kevin durant he uh Some kid I guess has been tagging him and a bunch of posts on instagram and then kevin durant slid in his DMs and basically was like Fuck you man. Like why do you keep tagging me in these posts and got upset and then the kid did the old like i'm 17

You shouldn't care about me. So guess what we're gonna have kevin durant's back here. Yeah, that kid is a baby back bitch Yeah, why are you taking shots at the king? Yeah, do you what you hate greatness? Yeah um, honestly though kevin durant like stopped doing this but also trolls like It's such a weird dynamic because people like oh kevin durant got got against like no that guy was just being a shitty person online And tagging him in every single post here's here's kevin durant's problem Is he still pretends like he doesn't care sometimes, right? So what he needs to do he can't be doing these isolated incidents of attacking like one 17 year old in their DMs He needs to spend an entire evening just like cruising through his mentions on instagram

Sliding into like a hundred people's DM like take a natter all yes Like pop a natural or riddlin and and dedicate five hours of your life just being obscene in people's DMs Yeah, I mean like hey, fuck you. I got two rings suck my dick You're right and if you did that to like 40 people What are they gonna do all screenshot and all go viral at the same time? No, no one smarted the waters a little bit. You should do like weekly office hours Where I said office hours like come at me say you say the meanest thing to me and I will respond for one hour That's absolutely what he should do. Yeah, okay kevin durant do that then come on the show because we just gave you better advice

And you've ever gotten in your entire life. We got your back katie. Yeah, we got your back pussy Uh t-bow update. Mm-hmm big t-bow update. He hit a double in the double a all star game Oh, so first t-bow update was I guess he made the all star game Yep, and second was he got the second base for the first time get it. Yeah, he's a virgin. He's also got a girlfriend Yeah, that's that's very true. Yeah, yeah, so that news came out as well So, um, I actually have a serious take on t-bow. I mean we've been outspoken To the fact that uh t-bow should probably get called up to the big leagues at some point this year, right? If the Mets are gonna suck. Mm-hmm let t-bow hit in the home run derby

In the all-star game for a chance to make the roster you want. Yeah You could do that or you know like I don't know you say for every five home runs You hit we're gonna cut off a filipino kids foreskin that works too So yeah, whichever way you want to do it But the bottom line is you want a ratings bonanza get tim t-bow in the fucking home run derby or have Or have him pitch an inning in the all-star game. Yeah for both teams Who can score the most runs off t-bow in like the bot in the seven he would hit so many batters. Oh, it'd be awesome that actually Come on. I'll be just one time. Like how many good ideas do we have to throw out on this show?

For someone to be like, you know what? Oh, yeah, maybe I should do office hours where I just get triggered online and and yell at little kids on instagram DMs No, seriously, though, like who who's the commissioner baseball right now? Kenesaw mountain land us. Yeah. Yeah, but hey Kenesaw people don't talk about the fact the first commissioner was named Kenesaw mountain Yeah, that was his first name pretty pretty badass. It's actually a division three college. Yeah, so we'll beat michigan next year So get t-bow at involved in the all-star game at some point. I'm not talking about the celebrity game I'm talking either the home run derby or the actual game. It would be hilarious. Like so patronizing. We put them in the celebrity game Yeah, you're actually a baseball player right now, but we want you in the celebrity softball game

It'll be him and rick and keel. Yeah. Uh, all right hank jimbos. Let's do it All right, uh, I heard young jeezy's song lose my mind for the first time and thought I was a new banger The next day I proclaimed that the song in the summer to my younger co-workers They informed me that it came out in 2010 and that i'm lame as fuck It's pretty much my life around here is saying something exactly to that effect and then and then bubba just looking at me laughing Isn't it young yeezy too young jeezy. Oh, okay. Well, there we go. Well, what isn't he hispanic? No, young yeezy Yeezy, okay. All right, jeezy the snowman. What's it? What's it? How does that song go? I don't I don't really want to get into it without the beat. It's kind of I don't have the voice

On yourself Don't do it. Yeah, don't uh women's college lacrosse team yourself. Don't do it hank Hank don't say it. No Anyway, sup I'm notorious for getting caught in mouth when high so when seeing Jurassic world on five dollar tuesday I brought in a big squeezable gatorade bottle Sat in the top row and as the movie started I promptly kicked it over and had to listen to it Roll down and slam on every single terrace until it reached the bottom

Couldn't find it at the end of the movie. This kid is broke. Oh He went to five by tuesday Look for his own most empty gatorade bottle that he knocked off. Oh, no That's tough. So you're sitting the whole movie being like, oh man. I hope I can get this gatorade at the end I'll bet you this kid stuck around just like stayed in the theater to catch the second showing of it, too Ah, that's the one he's worth. I'm sorry man. Yeah, your life is a jimbo right now Uh, I erroneously believed it was coming home Yeah fair play. I feel like that's big cat's fault. Yeah, listen

Soccer teams when they get good catchy songs, I get swept up in it and it's nothing I can do about it It's just like the inner romantic in me. I kind of knew that it wasn't their year Yeah, it was a little bit at what point did you know when the game ended? No at the start of overtime Yeah, because the lads from croat. Yeah, they run down. They look feisty. Yeah Croatians They look like like a bunch of stray scrappy dogs. I just really English are like, you know a pure like a sheep A sheepdog that's been groomed. Well, they're a bulldog that can't breathe right Yeah, and you don't want to get into a street fight with a street dog Yeah, they uh, I just wish they had gone to pk so they could have lost then that would have been, you know

Although their keeper's pretty good. Yeah, it's got a big ass. Yeah, but it's england So counterpoint I went to a great football high school coach I was about to walk by me in the hallway escorted by the dean So I asked him about his Louisiana jambalaya and got a saturday detention What? Fuck the fuck this school about Louisiana jambalaya. Yeah. Yeah, fuck the dean This is how a really good like uh, like 80s comedy movie would start The dean gave me detention because I asked coach old by his jambalaya. Yeah, let's let's have a student strike

Everybody turn your desk upside down. Hank. Have you ever seen uh breakfast club? It's a great movie Whoa My boss gave me a company card for food on a work trip Didn't know they saw what was on the receipt and now he knows I had three buckets of red stripe on a tuesday. That's classic Yeah, yeah, you I don't know how you get out of that. You got to just pay cash I don't think you can I think you just like people do expenses, right lesson. What do you tell to your boss though? Uh clients card got stolen. You just say clients. You just say clients and they'll be like, okay Well, I can't fight you on that. Mm-hmm

Uh, this is like a uh, one of those things called craigs craigs less misconnection Oh throwback. I saw a hot girl on the fourth wearing a pm t-shirt Of course went up and talked to her bought her a drink and got her number Went on to black out and dropped my phone in the lake Had to get a new phone and her contract didn't transfer over and I don't remember her name because I was too drunk Missed out on my future wife. Here's the thing. That was actually me So you were fucking hammered and I told you several times that it was me pft and you were like you're hot Then you dropped your phone. So um, I guess you didn't really miss out on much. That sucks could have had a pmt, baby

I think we probably already have I don't know. I wonder if any babies have been conceived to pmt No, but people who met like in their first like time they met One of the things that they had in common was listening to this podcast and got married and had a baby I don't think we've been around long enough for that. Mm. It would have had to happen real fast You would have had to like the really bad sound effects. Probably like so one probably like a knocked up A knocked up type situation where they've met at a bar or one night stand. Yeah, no, I don't want to say it about you You're listening to it right now, but yeah All right

Last one I made a whole song about drinking paint and how good it tastes and then did a mount rushmore on best tastes and didn't mention paint Once that's true. That's true. We did not mention paint. So yeah, we also didn't mention milk for jim harboss A lot of a lot of misses. I regret a lot of things about that mount rushmore. Yeah, it's tough That's it mount rushmore season can like wear on you mentally. I mean, I'm like I said, I'm not gonna sleep tonight because of robin Big it's a sport. It's tough. It's tough. Yeah, nick, right? Don't say that it's a cliche because it's not mount rushmore is real. It's still real to me. Damn it. All right We're gonna see you guys on Monday. We'll be live from dc
