Daksh Gupta leads a company called Greptile that focuses on AI and San Fran. He expects his team to be available from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. at least five days a week, often on the weekends. Man, that's a big ask, isn't it? Right. I mean, damn, man. Let me guess.
Starting point is 00:06:11 It starts off at $11 an hour. I'm sure it does, yeah. Just above minimum. Right. You know, they really want to help you out. If he's an AI, you think he could just create his own stuff to take care of everything for him? I mean, wow, yeah. Sounds like he's on the wrong path already.

There's, there's a lot to this. That's going to be unpacked. I guarantee you, this ends up a movie. The United healthcare CEO, Brian Thompson was headed into a conference in New York city when a gunman, uh, assassinated him. I mean, right there, broad daylight, man.

Well, that sounds like one I want't heard that yet. You got to dig into this, brother. You got to dig into this. Yeah. Like a rabbit hole we need to dive down. Well, that sounds like one I want to know. February, it all started back in February when she made some buy. Again, it comes down to stocks.
Starting point is 00:07:33 Oh, no shock on that. Yeah, no, we know how that works, don't we? Everybody up there is getting rich, right? It's for the people, though. I mean, you know. Right. Well, this show is, but yeah. Yeah, though. I mean, you know. Right. Well, this show is, but yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:45 Yeah, right. You may have heard that a Chinese hacking company has been spying on text and calls through at least eight major telecommunication company customers, AT&T, Verizon, and Lumen among them. An official said yesterday the hacking, much bigger than revealed to the public, includes dozens of countries. During the call, the deputy national security advisor said that they don't believe any of the U.S. telecoms have eliminated the threat completely. So the FBI is saying they use encrypted channels for now.
Starting point is 00:08:17 I don't have any of those. In a statement, China said it opposes the U.S. smear attacks. Yeah, no, I understand. I'm sure they do. Sorry about the balloon. I read that article yesterday. I saw that as I was scrolling through Facebook. And I thought, really?
Starting point is 00:08:32 Do they not realize that we all know they've been listening to us anyways forever? Well, I mean, the only reason that anybody's mad at them is because you're getting in the way of us spying on ourselves. Right, yeah. We're busy doing it. We don't want you here doing it too. Two kindergarten teachers at a Christian grammar school in Northern California shot yesterday by a gunman. He died from what's believed to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Starting point is 00:08:58 The two boys, five and six who were shot were taken to the hospital. They were critical. As of last night, the suspected shooter had to meet with an administrator earlier in the day to talk about enrolling a student at the school. They described it as cordial. The sheriff said he had been identified and may have targeted the school because of its affiliation with Seventh Day Adventist Church. That's just terrible, man. Authorities in Unity Township still searching for a woman in Pennsylvania that they think fell into a sinkhole.
Starting point is 00:09:28 They say it's now turned to a recovery operation. They don't think 64-year-old Elizabeth Pollard's alive, but the effort to find her will continue. They've been trying to locate her since Tuesday. They've used thermal imaging cameras, drones, all that. There's a giant hole because there's an abandoned mine beneath it. So it sunk in, and apparently she was standing in the yard when it happened. We'll find her a Cracker Barrel. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:09:53 That's where she ended up, on a Cracker Barrel in China. Let's see. There was an immediate outcry of criticism yesterday. Anthem Insurance said they'll cap anesthesia coverage with a time limit starting February 1st. Don't know what that affects, but it says it won't affect patients under 22 or maternity-related care. The price of Bitcoin topped $100,000 for the first time yesterday. It hit, let's see, an over 45% increase since the election. The price of Bitcoin has doubled in the last year. So if we've jumped 45% since the election,
Starting point is 00:10:29 I would suspect a lot of people are millionaires now. Yeah. Yeah, and I would cash that out quickly. Yeah. Let's see what else. Oh, this is a good story. Afton, Wyoming, 91-year-old Michael Black went missing from his home,
Starting point is 00:10:43 prompted a large search. It spanned multiple states. He's a Korean War veteran, has dementia. He was eventually found at a Salt Lake City bus stop by a missionary and taken to a local shelter. And because of a news segment, his wife recognized him. And he had been missing for years. And, or maybe not years, but he'd been missing for a while. Yeah, that's crazy, though, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:11:09 Milwaukee artist Tony Busolashi has turned his love for art into a mission to support people with homelessness. Over the past seven years, the 90-year-old's raised a couple hundred grand selling artwork and donating proceeds to St. Ben's Community Mill. They provide food, shelter, all that. He said he was inspired by values instilled in him from childhood. He remains committed using his talent to fund their efforts and leave an impact on the community. That's pretty amazing. That is. That's awesome. Axel Rose settled a lawsuit. He's putting the sexual assault lawsuit by sheila kennedy behind him the gnr singer tried to have it dismissed in march even though he still denies the allegations he did settle the suit a key piece of the defense team case was the fact kennedy talked about the encounter between her and axel in the documentary look away and said she didn't consider it rape and added it was consensual
Starting point is 00:12:05 okay so now you're coming back and soon okay everybody wants a piece don't they uh kfc has celebrated the holidays with their iconic holiday bucket for six decades with various themes buckets of joy is uh the new one it features humor and bold colors. They've created limited edition streetwear collections. So if you want the KFC streetwear collection because you like to rock the KFC, there you go. That's right, your KFC drip,
Starting point is 00:12:36 your gravy drip. With the gravy shot. Yeah, that's right. The LPGA and USGA have updated their gender policies for 2025 season in order to compete professionally in the LPGA and USGA have updated their gender policies for 2025 season in order to compete professionally in the LPGA or any of the eight USGA women championships. Players must be assigned female at birth or have transitioned to female before going through puberty. These updated policies would rule out eligibility for Haley Davidson.
Starting point is 00:13:04 These updated policies would rule out eligibility for Haley Davidson. She missed qualifying for the open by one stroke this past season and just missed LPGAQ school. Policies enacted for 25 after a year of study involving medicine, science, sports, physiology, and gender policy law. Golf doesn't bother me as much as other ones, but I get it. Yeah. I mean, I get it. You know, I mean, are they playing from the guy's tee box? You know? No, probably not.
Starting point is 00:13:33 Tom Brady is suggesting a big change. The conversation continues after the hit against Trevor Lawrence. Now, they call it a dirty hit here. I don't know that it was. It was a bad hit, but he was sliding. The guy had already come at him. I don't think it was dirty. On Monday, Rex Ryan sounded off about quarterbacks running full speed
Starting point is 00:13:54 and expecting not to get hit, suggesting they should be taught to dive at the ankles instead of sliding. Talking with Colin Coward, Tuesday, Tom Brady suggested penalties or fines against quarterbacks who slide too late and make contact inevitable. So he wants to penalize the quarterback for not doing a better job. There have been references to the Pat Mahomes video against the Lions where defenders appeared to be afraid to hit him while he was running
Starting point is 00:14:20 and mocked like he was going to slide but kept going and squeaked out a few more yards right yeah i remember that quite well do you why don't we just play football yeah i know no there's not that's that's going away you're going to flag football before you know it man that's that's what's going to happen here i'd love to see it go the other way but you know and i guess the bottom line is a you know cte a lot of younger people aren't getting involved now. And so I don't know, man. It's a tough one there.
Starting point is 00:14:51 But I'm with you. I mean, let's play football. If you're going to go, play football. Well, the thing is, is we've had so much upgrades to the technology of our equipment, and we're not wearing leather helmets anymore. That's right. I mean, we have unbelievable equipment out there that has been crash tested basically like our cars have been yeah you know and these men are running i get at full speed and some of them are 250 pounds but my gosh man we're in here it's one of the most violent combat sports other than mma in the world and yeah you know they're giving us new rules
Starting point is 00:15:18 right now i mean i you know i i agree with you it's football it is a violent sport that's why you're paid millions of dollars to do it, honestly. You know, I mean, there's more risk, more reward, right? Exactly. All right. Stephen A. Smith, arguably the most prolific talking head on ESPN these days, and the contract he'll reportedly get will reflect that. He's negotiating a deal that will score him 120 mil in six years.
Starting point is 00:15:47 When asked, Smith said any of the reports of him and espn being on the verge of a deal or fake over the summer another report suggested they'd offer him 12 million a year along with 4 million for his production company but needless to say he's going to be paid and uh he'll be paid very well all right let's do something else shall we manners for men when walking with a lady after you always walk between her and the street for safety and the reflection off the store windows will enable you to see her butt oh they're having a sale this has been manners for men fist bump dick punch all right so we got uh nathan kirby in the house here and uh nathan uh some people might shockingly not know you uh so let me lay out a little bit of facts you have been
Starting point is 00:16:41 in the combat sports uh field in arkansas for I don't know, what, 30 years, 20 years? How long? I moved here in 2008. I started here, and my first MMA show that I promoted was 2009, February. Of 2009. Okay. So what is that, 15, 18 years then? Something like that?
Starting point is 00:17:01 Yeah. I'm not doing quick math. So how did you get started in MMA and in sports like that yeah i'm not doing quick math but uh so how did you get started in mma and and in sports like that um honestly i was i'm born and raised in iowa and i started doing um traditional martial arts when i was young uh karate when i was about 18 years old uh taekwondo and dude I remember being in my basement apartment 1993 watching UFC number one really Denver Colorado yeah and I said that I want to do that yeah and then I found taekwondo that was not it okay and didn't know, okay? And I tell people all the time, I just had this chick come in from Krav Maga.
Starting point is 00:17:49 Listen, people don't know what they don't know, okay? And I try and gently lead them to the dark side. But I started doing taekwondo, and I ended up, you know, I fell in love with that. I was hooked. I did it for over a decade. And I was a world champion, 10-time state champion in Iowa. Man, I love kicking people in the face. I love training.
Starting point is 00:18:08 That sounds awesome. Kicking people in the face does seem fun. Fantastic, yeah. I got my world champion title, but I started training MMA at a taekwondo school. I own a gym below in Iowa, and above, my taekwondo instructor had his school his Taekwondo school and I would go up there once a month with a bunch of guys and we would do fight night and I literally had a banner posters and an ad in the newspaper that said fight club and I started my club yeah in Iowa and uh you'd have a lanyard on and you'd come in and as long as you're within about
Starting point is 00:18:45 15 to 20 pounds i'd match you up according to your lanyard your lanyard and i don't know names i'm just calling out uh 13 versus number seven and they look at their lanyard they go on the floor and they just duke it out and that's how it really started and then i like i need more i need more than this i wasn't getting into doing uh traditional martial arts because i didn't have any wrestling didn't have jujitsu didn't know what jujjitsu, didn't know what jiu-jitsu was at the time. I just had just street fighting. I was in a gang and I was homeless. And I got out of that life and got married.
Starting point is 00:19:14 But I'm still wanting to beat people up. Yeah, because it's fun. Legally. Legally. And so I ended up finding Miletic's gym. And I went up to Pat Miletic's gym, and I got to train with Matt Hughes and Tim Silvio, Brock Lesnar, all those guys.
Starting point is 00:19:29 And I got beat up by a handicapped man. I tell people this all the time. Black belt, grown man. I would fight on the street. I got arrested. I got arrested for fighting in Iowa. Man, I was a hood rat. And I got a homeless man, a handicapped man with no legs, choked me out.
Starting point is 00:19:47 What? Yeah, choked you out. Singing Rihanna in my ear like it was nothing. Oh, wow. Wow. You know, but that shows you what the power of the body can be and the power of leverage and all of that, right? Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:01 Oh, yeah. I learned quickly. And it was, I told people it was like this red pill blue pill movement moment that I could go back to And at the time I ended up building three tech one of schools my own and I can go back and still teach check Wando and But there's still a truth that I can't evade. Yeah, that's you're gonna get your ass beat by So I went back to Miletic and I started training and I started fighting and then I became a fighter. I remember my debut fight is where I got my nickname, Tasmanian Devil.
Starting point is 00:20:32 I've never experienced, I kicked this guy in the face, kicked him in the belly, punched him 34 times, hit him in the face with a knee. And this all happened in 16 seconds and they threw the towel in. Really? Wow. I was done and I'm doing this in the crowd. Yeah. Oh, man. It was a beast.
Starting point is 00:20:50 I bet that was. That was a moment, wasn't it? Oh, my gosh. I felt amazing. Yeah. It felt amazing. So how did you end up here? Well, again, I was still doing Taekwondo at the time.
Starting point is 00:21:00 Yeah. I had the MMA stuff. And so I'm still, I started promoting shows in iowa we were talking about emceeing and i was i remember emceeing my first show in 2006 in burlington iowa and i had matt hughes showed up tim sylvia showed up selling shirts autographs i had fog i had smoke i had pyrogenics oh wow off the cage flame shooting off the cage that's cool and i'm ladies and gentlemen and i'm doing the announcing my first big show and it's mine Then the local martial arts organization here in Arkansas ATA
Starting point is 00:21:33 hired me there are some people that work there and they hired me to come down and And I ended up working for their school in Cabot and then in Little Rock. Mr. Lee still Cabot and then Little Rock. Mr. Lee still... That's a whole different podcast. There is a split that happened because of certain people. They split off to their own martial arts thing.
Starting point is 00:21:56 And then the ATA is still here. Headquarters is still here and is now the ATA's eternal grandmaster's son is now the CEO of it. Okay. Legit dude. They're really cool people.
Starting point is 00:22:10 But the people that I came down and worked for, they're no longer with them. They're fractured off. They went into their own thing. In 2012, I went to my own thing and I started Rocky City MMA. So I've been doing MMA school for 12 years. Yeah, that's amazing. Now, I remember the first night your son fought. I was there. Are you serious? doing right in the main school for 12 years yeah that's amazing now i remember uh you know the first night your son fought i was there are you serious yeah i was there and and was uh in the
Starting point is 00:22:32 booth with you and uh what a what a great fight that was his debut fight man wait which son well i don't know one of them i didn't know you had two that were fighting well my my oldest son had one fight ever that probably was a high school kid he lost the split decision yeah that was probably him yeah that's colton yes it was colton yeah he's he's married he's got a son i have a grandkid yeah granddaughter on the way he's a pilot in the navy he's an officer well that's that's a good job too yeah yeah he fought that he fought hard though but he was after that he was like no i'm good i'm good i don't like it like dad does no i thought i would but getting hit's not as much fun for me yeah yeah he went navy he did a rotc in high school so how is it you know how many fights would you say you've had in your career um i think 12 total actual fights like sanctioned fights yeah okay um how how is it that
Starting point is 00:23:29 that some people how do you withstand being hit full strength by another man and and continue to move forward how do you overcome the pain how do you overcome the disorientation how do you accept that and still move forward great question first the funny side is i slip so they don't hit me straight on or full force move your head yeah fighters learn how to box can i tell you that please move your dang head uh um honestly i was very fortunate to have like i was seven and oh before i lost and then i lost to a Rooney Kachok, and it was right after I started learning MMA and jiu-jitsu. And that's why I started doing the military side of this, because a wrestler, D1 wrestler from Minnesota,
Starting point is 00:24:13 I mean, I hit him, and he didn't care. He took me down, took my back, and he choked me. My boys are crying. I'm crying. They're not crying because I got beat. They're crying because I got beat so fast. Yeah, yeah. That was a true story. They're like, I said, it's okay, I'm okay They're crying because I got beat so fast. Yeah, yeah. That was a true story.
Starting point is 00:24:25 They're like, I said, it's okay. I'm okay. But it was over so fast. Now, you still do that, of course. But in the past, I guess, you know, a couple, three years, you've really made a giant move into the acting scene. I remember I was sitting there with laura and i said hold on man let me tell you something about this i said nathan just sent me a message and this this dude
Starting point is 00:24:50 just said he was at the roach coach and nicole kidman said hi to him and i was like okay yeah now that's a life moment right there you know so so you end up on a set somewhere of lioness right that's the one with morgan freeman nicole kidman a real good of Lioness, right? That's the one with Morgan Freeman, Nicole Kidman, a real good cast, right? Yeah. How was that, by the way? Man, I'm telling you, it's absolutely incredible. Going back to what you were saying, transitioning from fighting is one thing. Then I became a coach.
Starting point is 00:25:17 Transitioning from being a coach to a business owner, building a business. Yes. A whole other mindset. And then I just knew i've had to do this you know i want to write a book next year yeah i can't do that until i finish this goal my goal was to get my son and he's an officer in the navy either goal is a pro fighter my son's a pro fighter my youngest son i want him in the ufc and my goal was to be in a movie but i've been in 50 i've been in 50 movies 50 i'm over 50 50 wow yeah so not just one you said that yeah well now what was the

Starting point is 00:27:58 wheel of fortune we paid for everything wow if i didn't make any money i would have just walked out with a thousand dollars cash that was it that's it yeah and but that would have barely covered any of my costs of course yeah hotel airfare food um shuttle family feud they paid for our round trip airfare five of my family members my aunt coming from florida um they gave us a shuttle um a limousine shuttle from the airport they put us up in the garland hotel um in uh la by the studio yeah they were all the faint you know the faint we mean like two blocks away from the brady bunch house oh yeah okay 350 night hotel they put us up and i asked them just real simple i said uh the guy who was doing all of our traveling, would you give us a return date for next Saturday instead? Because it's Memorial weekend.
Starting point is 00:28:50 Our family's coming out from Florida, from Iowa. My brother lives out there. They extended our stay. We stayed out there for a whole week. They're like, and you know what? We're going to give you an extra night in the hotel. They gave us a third night in the hotel for free. Three rooms, $350 a piece a piece steve dude he is crazy
Starting point is 00:29:09 i mean if you walk forward on a lot on his stage if you go step forward he's off camera and he's talking to the audience okay still on camera but you know what i mean yeah not on air and that's what he just goes off he's still doing a stand-up routine yeah um at one time he's he's uh i mean dropping f-bombs man he's giving his testimony yeah right he was insane man it was hilarious yeah a lot of people don't realize that that steve harvey wasn't a clean comic coming up that's not who that guy was and so it was a big changeover for him uh to go the way that he has but it's interesting to hear that behind the scenes he's still that way he was hilarious so of all the you know now that you've done you know all these movies uh you you've met lots of
Starting point is 00:29:57 people yeah uh what was the moment that you would say was the most surreal of folks that you've encountered i try and take i i literally do try and stay as um level as i possibly can because i know i haven't made it um i'm you know i got my first movie coming up in two weeks in la yeah i'm excited i got lines you know i'm working with a guy that i know in the MMA, jujitsu industry out there for a movie. Very excited. Is this the one about the, uh, the, the kick-ass pastor? No,
Starting point is 00:30:30 that, no, nope. That's coming to Arkansas. Okay. That's next year. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:30:33 I am the lead role in that here in Arkansas, but they're going to change the filming until September. Okay. Um, uh, so they need a villain. Holla. I have a lot of people already hit me up.
Starting point is 00:30:45 And I mean, I want as many of my friends involved in this as possible, especially since we're going to be filming here and it's a fighting past. Right. Yeah. Yeah. A chaplain, a chaplain who's now a mega pastor in Arkansas. I could say I read Matthew McConaughey's book, Greenlight. Okay. Is that good? It's been on my reading list of books to get forever.
Starting point is 00:31:11 Sorry, I didn't read it. Don't read it. No. Listen to it. Okay. It's Matthew McConaughey. Okay. It's his book.
Starting point is 00:31:17 All right, all right, all right. It's him. And it's him telling his life story. But it's all the extra stuff he adds into it. Yeah. It's my first gig. And I want to say it's almost a year ago. So I remember being cold.
Starting point is 00:31:29 I hadn't really done a lot. I'm telling you the last 12 months. It's been insane for you. It's been insane. No, I know. I've been watching. Yeah. I've done more in 12 months than I've done the last 10 years.
Starting point is 00:31:42 I mean, in my life. But I'm heading down to Atlanta. It's my first time getting booked on Tyler Perry Studios. Yeah. I'm about to go on Tyler Perry's lot. And it is the largest studio in the United States as landmass goes. Yeah, it's massive. Full-size White House.
Starting point is 00:32:01 Not a replica. Internal. Wow. A full-size White House. That's's amazing cul-de-sacs i'm telling you it's massive so i'm excited i'm gonna be working i can't say the name of the movie but it's a medea movie okay okay so because it's not out yet i've been looking it's not out yet and um i'm excited i know there's an opportunity there i know i I'm a nobody. I'm just extra background. But I'm listening to Matthew McConaughey, Greenlights, and I'm on my way down there, and he starts talking. And I'm telling you, I'm so freaking inspired. I hit Birmingham,
Starting point is 00:32:35 Alabama with tears in my eyes. And I'm like, I don't care what anybody says. Kind of like what we said earlier. F it. I'm doing this. You're not going to change my mind. Uh-uh. I know this is what I'm supposed to be doing. I know God's opening doors for this. I'm going through it, man. I'm going to go. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:51 I'm telling you, that book helped me get through so much listening to this story. Kind of shift the paradigm. Yeah. It's what it was. So that was a big moment for me is being able to be a part of that. I got a film with james gunn massive director on superman that'll be coming out next year um i have been on a taylor sheridan film three different times wow i was on land man yeah um oh shoot i'll have to post i i was wanting to post it
Starting point is 00:33:19 and bring stuff but um i wish i could brag about everything i've done, but if they're not out yet, I can barely say anything. But the video is out on Landman. I did see my big ass walking. You can see me. Somebody actually screenshotted already. They're like, I know this is you. You big head fool. And you can see me walking.
Starting point is 00:33:41 I was on Landman. Oh, wait. I was on Landman uh lioness that's taylor sheridan i gotta work with him um it's wrapped i can't talk about the scene because i think it's coming out next week okay i think i'm in the last episode um but i was there for the rap i'm only on set for four days i met a really cool guy on set became friends with this industry has really changed my life. But as they rap, we're feeling this.
Starting point is 00:34:09 Dude, Blackhawk helicopters, too. I mean, Blackhawks are flying around. Yeah. Humvees, AMRAPs. I mean, this is real stuff. I'm like, look at this. This is insane. This is a budget.
Starting point is 00:34:20 This is Hollywood, basically. Yeah. And it's the last day. I had a full beard. I had a full beard. I had a full beard. I was four different characters in this, and I didn't film the first two days. Day three, I already saw Nicole Kidman.
Starting point is 00:34:34 Day three, I got to talk to Nicole Kidman. I mean, we spoke about banana water. Hell yeah, you did. Back up, Nicole. My wife is going to be watching watching this so yeah you're right i'm sure she was lovely she was yeah she was she are most you know you always see these crazy things where it says hey you're not supposed to make eye contact or these type of things what has your experience been they're really pretty cool? No. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:06 Man, let me put a slice through that. They would be, but they've also been directed not to engage. Because we are, I'm telling you, I'm a pissant, peon, nobody. And they will make sure you know that. The PAs, I almost walked off of Will Trent. I had a full feature on real try I mean you can see me I mean I'm in here with my left hand they had a right-handed holster so I'm in here with my left hand drawing a weapon all right I'm coming down and I'm full on the camera right I mean this is will Trent and then I had to slide the gun into my
Starting point is 00:35:40 right hand because they didn't have a left-handed holster for me almost walked off that set because of the pa the way she talked to me and treated me really it's awful wow i mean you you they let you know where you stand yeah there's no you need to be grateful to be there is what they say right yeah now do you do um do you do stunts as well? So I've got four or five movies in on stunts. I just did another one down in Birmingham, Alabama. I filmed a movie that is based on Marine Raiders. It's called Raid Pacific. And they're going to come back and they've got to film some more stuff there. I don't think they're done.
Starting point is 00:36:23 But I was a Marine on the base in Fort Morgan, Alabama, and then also in Dolphin Island. I think it was in Dolphin Island. There's two forts there. I got to learn the history about it. And it was super, it was super amazing. And I was able to get shot and do a stunt, get killed down a hill, did a stunt. I was a police officer in Atlanta, shot out of the car, had to dive out of the cop car and get shot in the face. That's cool, getting shot in the face.
Starting point is 00:36:52 Yeah, it was a big robbery. You said there were a couple of things you got killed off in. Yeah, I was on a movie. I won't say the name of the movie, but the director was RZA from Wu-Tang Clan. Wu-Tang for life, baby. Wu-Tang for life. Still a lover, still a fan. But it was nine in the morning.
Starting point is 00:37:13 We got our call times. I'm a sheriff. And they said, we're about to go down and film. There's about five or six of us. And I remember some guy yelling for Kirby. I'm like, yeah, that's me. He says, congratulations, you've been boosted and upgraded. I'm like, yeah, that's me. He says, congratulations, you've been boosted and upgraded. I'm like, oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:37:29 Like, to what? He's like, well, you've been picture picked. So ever since then, I'm always wanting to be picture picked. That means the director's actually involved, right? That's right. They saw your picture, and they're like, yeah, that's the guy. Yeah, we want that. I want that guy for cop.
Starting point is 00:37:40 Yeah. I want featured, so I started looking for certain things, so I'm not just running some cattle call to be some pedestrian right in the background yeah yeah that's what i was with michelle five for a couple weeks ago but i wanted to be a part of another taylor sheridan production so i did it but also always hoping to get upgraded i always have that hope in me that there's something going to come from this so anyway i'm i'm on set he says congratulations you've been upgraded unfortunately your scene isn't filming until 9 p.m. tonight. So I had to sit on set for 12 hours.
Starting point is 00:38:08 So you can't, like, just bounce? You got to stay there? No, you are staying there because you are employed. Okay. You are under contract now. And I'm in my. So do you go to your trailer? Do you just sit on the set?
Starting point is 00:38:19 Sit right there on the set. There's a holding someplace. Depends on where we are. It's like the DMV for actors. Oh, my gosh. Sometimes I'm telling you. But we meet a lot of cool people. There's a lot of cool people that I've really met being a part of this. And probably really been great for your network and for building out good resources and friendships. Yes. I'm not a patient person though. Yeah. It kills me in my mind i'm
Starting point is 00:38:45 like i could be doing something better different more than this you know that's been sitting yeah sitting is difficult always so i said okay um so i'm about to film and it was the first night was amazing got to film this boom we got the cop car we got a stunt driver and all this cool stuff but then it gets kind of crazy i can't go into detail with it on air but um they had me come back the only reason why i could get featured is if i was able to have my availability the next week for like two or three more days yeah cleared my schedule i can be there for two or three days and then they came at me with this contract um and they wanted me to sign a intimacy thing and they're having okay guys okay, guys, we are professionals here.
Starting point is 00:39:25 We are not going to have name exchanges and phone number exchanges. I'm like, what am I walking into here? Because they can have your likeness. It doesn't have to be me. Right. They can make it look like it's me. Oh, okay. So I would not sign that contract.
Starting point is 00:39:40 And I went to this woman's office. I said, I've been married 28 years. I still have two testicles. I'd like to go home with both. I want to this woman's office. I said, I've been married 28 years. I still have two testicles. I'd like to go home with both. I want to retain them. Please. I'd like to stay married. But I just made a promise to my wife
Starting point is 00:39:53 that I'm not going to kiss another woman on the lips. And she says, no problem. But what if it was Kate Upton? No, no, no. Only, listen, only if it was, I won't say who. Yeah, there is one, though. There's one. She did not give me the pass.
Starting point is 00:40:09 No, but there's one. There's one. She knows. There's always one, yeah. It's Cameron Diaz. Okay. Okay. I think that might be possible, actually.
Starting point is 00:40:17 I don't know why. Always has been. That's interesting. Interesting choice, yeah. Yeah, yeah. I'm with you. Okay, thank you. I'm with you.
Starting point is 00:40:24 It's something about mary yes that was the mask that was the better one that got me the mask the mask was the one camera d is in the mask i was in the army sat there and i was like going that's my future ex-wife yeah that was the best she looked for sure was in my gosh okay so i said she says no, no worries, no big deal. I go back on, and we're filming a great scene. I've got a shotgun. I'm posting it. Oh, I can't stop. Anyway, there was all this stuff going on, but it's starting to get to the party side of this,
Starting point is 00:40:54 and I'm just a cheesy white dude standing there because I'm not involved in, you know, the party aspect of this. And RZA comes out. He's like, Kirby, see that that wall you've had too much to drink just kind of back up the wall and then you just kind of pass out you've had enough for the night we'll see how that rolls I'm like oh okay all right I knew immediately no big deal I get it I'm pretty boring uh I've been sober for 20 23 years so I won't even drink on set. Right. Nothing. So I pass out against a wall, fall down. Water cooler hits me in the head accidentally, but it was perfect. It was a one shot thing.
Starting point is 00:41:33 The next day I was there all day, but we didn't get a film. And then we wrapped the next week. That's when I filmed Superman for four days. They asked me to come back. I couldn't come back they killed me they smoked yeah yeah they put a dude in my uniform and shot him in the face that's the best way to go out shot in the face man that's it that's that's the way I want to end every movie role I'm ever in shot in the face yeah yeah yeah yeah you Right. Oh, you're dead now.
Starting point is 00:42:05 You can't make it. You're dead. Matt, so what's going on in the Bigfoot world, man? What the hell's happening in the pursuit? Have you seen him lately? No, not lately. The weather's been not great for going out there and hunting. But I do want to tie in what he was saying on his way to his first gig.
Starting point is 00:42:22 Okay. For the first show. And listening to Matthew McConaughey and listening to what he was saying and how it motivated you and got you there. On my way up to Northwest Arkansas to be filmed, my first documentary, you know, looking for Search for Sasquatch, it was the same moment. It was a surreal moment to where a dream, you know, finally happened as a kid, you know,
Starting point is 00:42:43 you're always watching these shows or he's watching and you're guys out the woods and watching everything go man i want to do that so bad right and then the opportunity drops in your lap and like you said too though for the past 12 months my life same way with you yeah you know it just escalated you know i i run a podcast now just won an award and haven't even been doing it for a year yet so i'm with you i'm like i'm sitting that's what i'm saying going i get you i get you you know on the bigfoot world though we haven't had to um for me not much i'm doing a um a meet and greet in january with uh the censored monkey oh what is it the censored monkey up there oh yeah yeah yeah yeah so i'll be up there on january 14th yeah brandon runs that place over there yeah yep so i'm going to be up there oh yeah yeah yeah yeah so i'll be up there on january 14th yeah brandon runs that

Starting point is 00:44:56 um to where uh something's some things stalked me into my guards one night on AHA duty. In Fort Hood, Texas? Fort Hood, Texas. Oh, I was there a long time out in the wilderness. Yep. It was North Fort Hood. You probably hadn't moved there then. Oh, well, you'd be surprised. It was back in 2002 when this encounter happened.
Starting point is 00:45:17 Oh, really? Yeah, 2002. That was probably a good decade or so after I was there. Okay. Yeah, so you moved in later. Go ahead. Yeah, so it was North Fort Hood. It was a crazy – and I've always believed that after I was there. Okay. Yeah, so he moved in later. Go ahead. Yeah, so it was North Fort Hood. It was a crazy, and I've always believed that.
Starting point is 00:45:29 I'm from northern Utah. So I grew up in the Wasatch Front, grew up with Bigfoot stories. And when the Patty film came out, my grandpa was like, you know, he's up there. You know, my mom had an account. So I grew up knowing that there's something in the woods. And what it is, you know, I'm not going to speculate. Everybody has their own opinion, and everybody's right. So what's kept me interested is there's more evidence that comes out there's more sightings that come out and either it's mass hysteria or there's something to it because this creature's
Starting point is 00:45:54 been featured all over the world you know and what drives me nuts i just talked about this the other day one of my shows is you know we base all of our knowledge and information on the science world, the natural world, based upon people from England in the 1800s who had these professional, you know, occupations. And they would go to these local native lands, you know, in Africa, you know, over here in America, Australia, these, you know, you know, backwoods idiot people. Now, these backwoods idiot people live in this area.
Starting point is 00:46:22 They know the area. They know what a hippopotamus looks like. Yeah, of course. So they describe a hippopotamus, you're going to say hippopotamus. That's a giraffe. But then they describe a dinosaur-looking creature, and these white guys from England go, oh, no, you're an idiot. So how are they an idiot?
Starting point is 00:46:37 They know this is a creature that grew up with. It's a creature they see. They know it. They know what a crocodile is. So you're saying they didn't want to document it at that time. They didn't treat it seriously no nobody did even when we were doing coming through uh america every tribe has a hairy man story every tribe has a giant every every tribe over here in north america has these creatures they're featured on totem poles
Starting point is 00:47:01 out west really yeah the locals feature sasquatch on totem poles out west. Really? Yeah, the locals feature Sasquatch on totem poles. They'll have like an eagle. They'll have a bear. They'll have a deer. They'll have a Sasquatch. So why would they have other real animals than one fake one? Yeah. Unless it's actually there.
Starting point is 00:47:17 I mean, that's a great question. I mean, it's really interesting. It's just because think of how we were brought up, though. So, yeah, you know, the Native Americans, they were savages. If you read a lot of the old text, a lot of the old documents, these explorers, when they go out there and how they describe the local people is horrible. I mean, I mean, they describe them. I mean, we're almost like inbred idiots who don't know. Well, they were from England after all.
Starting point is 00:47:40 Exactly. You know, I think these people live there for generations, for centuries on the same area. So they know the land. You know, you're, you know, you know i think these people live there for generations for centuries on the same area so they know the land you know your course you know your backyard you know they know how to farm they know how to hunt they know how to yeah you're saying they're not so dumb they don't know what animals are out there they've been there yeah yeah they know what plants to eat they know what animals stay away from so if they describe a creature they're seeing they're telling people hey don't go over there because that's such and such you know it's there has to be what about uh you mentioned giants uh do you think that uh giants uh once lived a species a race of giants yes in the bible it's in the bible it's in the bible it's the old testament it ties on down uh. The best example is David and Goliath. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:27 I'm familiar with that story. I just mean otherwise. Yeah. Every culture has giants. Every culture does have a giant type of creature. Nor generally featured and described as having a red head. Once a year, I see a black and white photo that's supposed to have a giant in it, but I don't think it's real. No, I'm with you on that one. I don't think that one's real what about dragons did they did they exist or no all depends
Starting point is 00:48:49 upon who you ask well so me i don't have any evidence of it there are historical you know cases where you know there have been eyewitness accounts but some of it i think is misidentification prime example so the ancient greeks yeah right when they were finding dinosaur bones you know of course they're not seeing dinosaurs at this point in time obviously so they're trying to still piece together that's where i think some of the dragon legends came from you know and a lot of it got tied into with the catholicism with the catholic church you know you know defeat the dragon you know killing the beast the serpent and everything right and then you tie in unicorns into that as well and i do think a lot of that was time to tie in the catholicism into uh the pagans and try and unite
Starting point is 00:49:33 the medieval period mythology yeah we're trying to tie it into trying you know more or less say like hey look yeah we understand but do this what we do and you know you need to come over and follow christ and you know so okay i can do this all day i'm sorry no no no no i think it's interesting because you know it's which creatures you you give credibility to and which you don't that that's always of interest you know uh well it's like the latin monster i don't i don't know that's that's there's no longness monster no doggy on youtube says he's seen three sasquatch out in a villa in the 70s and 80s when they clear cut the woods around the lake. But the first one looked exactly like the Harry and the Henderson version.
Starting point is 00:50:13 Yeah. So when you said Harry and the Hendersons, all right. The funny part about Harry and the Hendersons is I think that there's a lot of soft disclosure comes out of Hollywood since you're into Hollywood. A lot of the movies, a lot of everything comes out really soft disclosure. We're going to slowly kind of introduce this in. We're slowly going to do it. And it started with Harry and the Hendersons.
Starting point is 00:50:35 Because before that, Bigfoot was featured as a, just a basic, yeah, scary primate. He's going to come tear your limb from limb. You know, we got Fowler. You know, exactly. Now he's having Snickers and whatnot. Snickers. I mean, exactly. He's going to have beef jerky. He's everywhere. You could put Bigfoot on a
Starting point is 00:50:52 coffee cup and sell it. I'm sure they do. I sell t-shirts. You know, so, which yeah, buy my t-shirts. Merry Christmas. But it's been a soft disclosure coming out through some of these movies in hollywood you know how many years and years and years do we build up to the alien thing
Starting point is 00:51:13 yeah how many movies about aliens and ufos and what they're doing and how they're coming in and it always seems to be the same way of killing them well by the way i did watch uh this week independence day too don't waste your time on that no no no that was horrible man that's just terrible it was shameful to make it i don't know why they did that's how i felt about alien romulus i just watched oh my god stop with that stop with that trash i had a straight oh no i had a straight argument the other day with somebody about it and they they love it and i'm like now that's trash i mean first of all it's not even a good remake of the gourney weavers uh second of all the end just absolutely pissed me i was like you cannot one up the xena the xenomorph it is
Starting point is 00:51:57 the perfect movie monster there's there's why would you do this why why would you do nobody wants that nobody asked for that jump the shark yeah no i i don't i don't like it a bit not only once did they jump the shark like three times in that movie yeah seriously don't waste your time no no i was highly disappointed i was much like the last star wars movie was a remake you know i was like man what was you know can we write anything new anymore no probably not i never saw any of the new three Star Wars movies. You didn't miss a damn thing. No, I knew I wouldn't. If it wasn't the three original Star Wars movies, that's the only
Starting point is 00:52:32 Star Wars movie. Two and a half of them. Well, there's a movie coming out next year that I was in. I'm sure it's very good. It's going to be very good. Actually, it's a remake of Naked Gun. all right that would be all right are you playing nathan the leslie nielsen no liam no way liam neeson and pamela
Starting point is 00:52:52 anderson that's great oh man i watched that i was watching a liam neeson movie this week i don't remember what it was uh but man i realized that dude's like 75 man and still out there kicking ass if you go to 2b right now this is it's sad but funny at the same time okay so look i'm a huge huge bruce willis fan always have been and uh so i've seen most all of his movies well i don't know why uh on 2b the day, something pulled up the Bruce Willis movies. And, you know, now he's got dementia to a point. He's not only nonverbal, he's beginning to not recognize people. Right. But about five years ago, he realized the doctors told him it was coming.
Starting point is 00:53:39 He knew it was coming. So he came up with this plan and kind of changed the way a lot of people in hollywood do business because he said here's what i'm going to do uh i'll be in any movie you want me to be if you can get me in and out in a weekend for two million dollars so a million dollars a day two days you got me to shoot whatever it is in your movie you want shot and then i go to the next one and he did that a lot right way more than i thought I thought. Because I went to Tooby and I was like, God, damn. He must have made $200 million in the past three or four years. Because, man, there's not a half of the movies on Tooby have Bruce Willis in there.
Starting point is 00:54:16 And I'm like, damn, man. I can't even watch all of those movies, man. But go over there and check that out, man. He apparently stacked a yeah smart yeah well i mean it was it was smart i mean look his family's taken care of and they can take care of him with no problem and he's making sure his legacy is going to carry on and everybody's going to remember him as bruce willis not as dementia bruce willis right no no you're right about that uh i did watch uh the greatest christmas movie of time the other day, and it was just as glorious.
Starting point is 00:54:46 Always been. Hans Gruber doing his thing. Oh, damn, man. It's still a great movie. I don't care, man. I remember when I saw that in the theater. Oh, yeah. It was great.
Starting point is 00:54:57 First time, you know, because Bruce Willis at the time was famous for moonlighting. Yeah. Right. It was comedic. Sybil Shepard, yeah. And it was great. So it was a young teenager, junior high junior high eighth grade when this came out and begged my aunt to take me she's like it's a rated r it's like it's okay my parents aren't gonna care yeah
Starting point is 00:55:14 loved it absolutely loved it yeah no it's the greatest i watch it every year yeah no it's the greatest uh it yeah moonlight that that's why where I fell in love with the guy, too, because I love anybody who's a class-A smartass. You know, Ryan Reynolds is real good at smartassery. Bruce Willis is great at it. Certain actors just have that snark about them. Now, there's certain actors I can't stand right now is Timothy Chalamet. I'm so tired of seeing his face everywhere. Yeah, he's playing the new Bob Dylan role, but I don't stand right now is Timothy Chalamet. I'm so tired of seeing his face
Starting point is 00:55:45 everywhere. He's playing the new Bob Dylan role, but I don't know. Everybody seems to put this guy up on some pedestal like he's the best looking dude in the world. He looks like a 12-year-old boy, number one. Number two, I'm like, why are you telling me this guy's everything? Yeah, he's okay. He's got a got a great marketing clearly he has agents that are just on a god level because i'm like this guy is a tool to me man he's just a little kid okay so funny trivia for you on the greatest christmas movie ever yeah hans gruber at the end he was holding on to the watch yes and the let go scene yeah when bruce willis releases the class the director told them don't
Starting point is 00:56:25 worry we're gonna cut and then we're gonna show you dropping right because uh i can't remember his name we passed away um you're talking about the actor played hans gruber yeah that's alan rickman so alan rickman was afraid of heights yeah and so they had it set up and he was rigged up and they just cut it with him on so that the look on his face is real it's real they legit tricked him and then dropped him and so yeah that's what happened that's exactly right man yeah alan rickman got the glory of playing two of the greatest bad guys in history when he obviously he played hans gruber but then he played professor snape who right fuller alert, was actually a good guy.
Starting point is 00:57:07 But throughout the series, he wasn't, right? You know? I don't remember. Now, which is your, is it the first one? Is that your favorite out of the Die Hard series? Yeah, the first and fourth. First and fourth? Yeah, I think it's.
Starting point is 00:57:20 What, Live Free or Die Hard? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Timothy Olyphant, Another Class A smartass. Oh, I like you. He's just phenomenal. He's so snarky. It's so good. He can just eat up a scene.
Starting point is 00:57:32 So his turn. And I like Justin Long in it, too. He's appropriately whiny for the role. Mine's one in three. Oh, Samuel L. Jackson? Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a great movie, too. You can't go wrong with Sam Jackson in anything.
Starting point is 00:57:47 I mean, he's one of the greatest of all time. That was almost like a breakout role for him, though. He didn't have a lot before that, quite a bit. No, you're right. It really was a big breakout role for him. Now, it wasn't too far after that, I guess, Pulp Fiction hit. And that revitalized John Travolta and probably finished the catapulting of Samuel L. Jackson into the stratosphere. Hey, Matt, would you do me a huge favor?
Starting point is 00:58:14 Would you mind trading out with Jared real quick and letting Jared sit in? Would you tell him to come in here? Because I want him to be able to get on. I'm always the one kicked out, you know, Seth? I'm messing with you. You're just on the end, man. It's just how it works sometimes. Well, we're waiting on that, man.
Starting point is 00:58:30 Some comments on Facebook. Oh, share those, would you? Yeah, Ronald Shue said, a nice interview with Joe Exotic. I'm guessing he's talking about the interview from yesterday. Oh, yeah, the interview from yesterday. Thanks, man. You know, that was such a compelling story. And the more I look into it, the more i'm looking into it it i really genuinely believe
Starting point is 00:58:47 as as you know as bombastic as sensational as over the top as joe exotic can be and he is and that's why people fell in love with him but uh but legitimately i i think he's been railroaded i mean you look at it's like i said i I watch the ID channel. I watch all these movies. I see these guys who, you know, kill somebody brutally, you know, hold them hostage, torture them, do all these things. And they end up out of prison in, you know, 12, 15 years. And you got this guy in prison for life. Right. I mean, he didn't even make it to the state.
Starting point is 00:59:20 The contract killer didn't even make it to the state where she was. I mean, it wasn't even make it to the state where she was i mean it wasn't even close to anything so at best you had they thought about doing it uh and then the tigers that allegedly he illegally killed right there's a lot of holes in the story man there are i've been reading up on it if you go look at the that joe exotic website, look at the documents, look at the videos of people recanting stories. And, I mean, it's amazing that you can have all of this new evidence and not get anybody to look at it. Right.
Starting point is 00:59:54 You know? This is Jared, everybody. Tell them who you are, Jared. How y'all doing? My name's Jared Harrison. And, Jared, what do you do, buddy? Well, I'm a custodian. Yeah.

Starting point is 01:00:34 Oh, no, no. You said there's 80 in every class? No, no, no. I mean like a graduating class, probably. Oh, 80 to 100. Maybe 120. You graduated 23? mean like a graduating class probably oh i graduated maybe 120 you graduated 23 23 in my graduating class i think i graduated with 500 oh my gosh brian hi baby yeah yeah watson chapel yeah no i don't know how many it was a lot i'll say that it was a lot everybody seemed like it was going to bryant then
Starting point is 01:01:03 now it's got to be way more than that. I don't know. They have 4,000 schools or the Bryant school district goes somewhere to about hot Springs. I think it's insane how far that school district goes, man. I had one graduating class of one. Right. No, you did the GED. Yeah, I did the GED.

Starting point is 01:02:08 I mean, I'm not even that inclination, but I would get with that dude. Right. That's all I'm saying. I heard they don't have any end in sight for it being at the top of the charts. No, it owns the charts. Right. It is the charts. Let's get to these stories now. A 70-year-old woman last month hurled objects from a hotel balcony while naked before spitting on a police officer with mouthwash.
Starting point is 01:02:31 This is Margaret Maranch. She was booked into the J. Rubin Long Detention Center Saturday on account of assault on a police officer while resisting arrest. What happened? Well, on November 22nd, they showed up at the Sandbar Hotel there at South Ocean Boulevard. The manager said a woman was standing on the balcony in front of Unit 1322, yelling boisterously and throwing objects while naked. The officer detected a burning odor when he arrived at the front door, noticing through an opening in the blinds that smoke appeared visible.
Starting point is 01:03:06 He knocked several times. The officer forced his way inside where a heavily drunk woman grabbed a bottle of mouthwash, gargled it, and spit on the officer's shirt and pants, according to the report. She had at least four other arrests this year between May and November on public disorder and public intox. So, yeah, there you go. Like the female Morgan Wallen. Sounds like a retirement home in Florida. Yeah, it does. It really does, doesn't it? Let's see. Okay, here you go. A Florida man with his set of sights on entering a USAA building

Tampa police said 70-year-old Robert Beatty went to the guard gate at the USAA office on Commerce Park before 2-15 Tuesday, demanded to be let in. The guard said, yeah, I don't think so. And then he put on a helmet, drove recklessly through the parking garage, damaged several fences on the property. Then he drove into the actual building. helmet drove recklessly through the parking garage damaged several fences on the property then he drove into the actual building um the people in a mark or two people in a marked security suv tried to block him but he intentionally reversed and struck their vehicle uh when officers arrived they found him on the third floor of the parking garage and they
Starting point is 01:04:20 they went ahead and you know took him to jail for a little bit to help him out. Florida is quickly becoming like the geriatric Wild Wild West. It really is over there. Well, you know that they have that Margaritaville, the retirement center. They have outrageous STD problems there. I mean, outrageous, man. These folks are swinging. They're banging. They're doing it all, man. They don't give a damn. Whatever happened to just going and playing b outrageous, man. These folks are swinging, they're banging, they're doing it all, man.

Man, I just can't even believe people are on Craigslist at all. That's what I'm saying. I don't even know it existed anymore. Right. I thought I got shut down forever ago. Remember the Craigslist at all. That's what I'm saying. I don't even know it existed anymore. Right. I thought I got shut down forever ago.

It was a banana duct taped to a wall. That's a true story.
Starting point is 01:06:30 Here's another one. This is a whole new meaning to draw on a blank. A barren white canvas valued at more than $1.5 million up for auction in Germany. The 1970 piece by minimalist painter Robert Reimann, titled General 52 by 52, that's the dimensions, will be up for grabs by art enthusiasts at the Ketterer Kunst auction house in Berlin. It's painted a stark white. It's going to get more than one and a half million. It appears to be blank, but the all-white canvas with a slightly darker white frame was painted using white enamel and enamelac paints typically used to paint metal. The use of these paint types atop a cotton canvas resulted in, quote, a piece so delicate it couldn't travel to be on view ahead of the sale.
Starting point is 01:07:19 Look, it's a white canvas. That's what it is. It's a white canvas. I don't care how many shades of white, what color white, what kind of white. It doesn't matter.

Department of Water and Power back in July of 23, filed a lawsuit. The suit says he was working on a job outside Judge Mathis' home where the judge attempted to pull his car out of the driveway.
Starting point is 01:08:58 As Mathis pulled the car out, he started shouting expletives at Acosta and others, demanding they move the effing truck out of the way. He then exited his car and started standing behind their dump truck where he started making demands. Acosta claimed he told him to move for his safety. They feared the truck would accidentally run over him. Mathis asserted that he didn't give an F and to run over him and see what happens. In other words, F around and find out. At this point, Mathis then told Acosta he had something for him,
Starting point is 01:09:28 to which he went in his home and came back with a gun. This is a judge. Wow. DTV judge. But he said, I'll bust a cap. You want to F with me? The LAPD didn't even investigate the claims, according to Acosta. Should he pursue this lawsuit will
Starting point is 01:09:46 not only vigorously defend the case will file cross claims against him for illegal conduct and defamation of character uh they state uh they're going after the judge regardless so they're they're going to try to get him on that one uh i i assume it wasn't defamation he probably did pull out a gun and tell him he's got a cap on him that's crazy isn't it man all right uh hey we need to do this so why don't we if you're looking for a vehicle how about a late model low mileage vehicle go to fitz auto listen if you want a car a truck an suv a boat a camperby-side.

He just handed me his phone here. The article reads, Florida man haunts beaches dressed as Grim Reaper. That's great.

Okay, that's a good one. How about you, man? A celebrity to be a roommate with? Yeah. Well, I was a douche. Okay, that's a good one.
Starting point is 01:13:06 How about yourself, Nathan? That's such a weird question. Is it? They're weird. They're weird. I don't want to be a celebrity. I just want the influence so I can write a book and get on stage and speak for the rest of my life. No, I feel you.
Starting point is 01:13:25 I think a singer. I think that would be awesome. Yeah. I think a performer. A performer. I might agree with that. Well, you were actually, Jared, spot on with number one. The Deadpool star leads the list with 17% of the vote.
Starting point is 01:13:40 Ryan Reynolds was number one. Somehow, someway, Taylor Swift was number two. No. Zend no, no. Zendaya, three. Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles. LeBron James. Kaitlyn Clark. Travis Kelsey.
Starting point is 01:13:54 Lionel Messi. Whoa, slow down. What? I'm glad to hear it. What are we slowing down about? Who gave this poll? Who gave this poll? Who gave this poll? The way this is leaning, I can tell this is a CNN poll.
Starting point is 01:14:12 Oh, you think so? I think it could be. Let's see. Zillow actually did it, but they could be owned by CNN for all I know. I have no idea. How many people said Caitlin Clark? Well, she came in third for athletes, followed by Travis, Kelsey, and Lionel Messi.
Starting point is 01:14:29 That's awesome. Caitlin Clark is my hometown, Iowa. Yeah? Yeah. She's a great, great ball player, man. She's phenomenal. Yeah. LeBron was one of the top athletes.
Starting point is 01:14:38 LeBron was number two. LeBron was? Yeah. Yeah, I like to call him LeBron. It aggravates the hell out of my son. He loves LeBron James, so I always call him Lebron. Or Lee Brian. I say, you know it's Lee Brian.
Starting point is 01:14:49 Lee Brian James. I just call him LeBron. I say it's Temu. Temu instead of Temu? She says it's Temu. Temu. Temu. I guess I'm on Temu.
Starting point is 01:14:58 I love to say. She has to correct me. I love to say words the wrong way sometimes to drive people crazy. I used to always say penis. People would get so aggravated, like, it's penis, man. You know, I didn't know that. I'd never heard it before. Speaking about that, John Bailey and the Heathen Revival say not Diddy.
Starting point is 01:15:15 They wouldn't want Diddy to be there. No. Not Diddy. That's funny. No, that's definitely not the roommate that you want is Diddy. No, especially right now. If he's your roommate now, you're really in trouble, huh? That's one robbie robbie on facebook says if he was alive he'd have robin williams oh yeah that'd be an awesome roommate that would be an entertaining roommate for sure
Starting point is 01:15:34 he's one of the greats of all time uh if we're gonna go down that route though i'd go actually michael winslow from oh from uh all the noises oh come on no he's phenomenal he is he he was a phenomenal have you ever watched do you watch a lot of stand-up oh yeah have you ever seen a set called bits and pieces by Pablo Francisco yes man that guy right there I think he's back out now but he had a lot of problems with some of the demons. Is that what happened to him? Yeah. I remember seeing he was on, like, one of the Comedy Central things.
Starting point is 01:16:13 Yeah. And he kind of got some up there and then just disappeared. Yeah, he had a little bit of a problem with the drinking, you know? I'm just wondering, like, it seems like when it comes to celebrities, it's always the stand-up comedians or somebody that ends up, or athletes that usually pick up some bad habits and it either kills them or ruins their career or whatever. lot of people probably may not know is that most I'd say 95% of them became funny out of necessity for survival right you know most of them have a lot of darkness in their life and so comedy was their survival tools so they come into the game predisposed to issues to begin with right and and I can I can
Starting point is 01:17:03 verify that because I've worked with a damn lot of comedians and all of them most of all of them occasionally you'll find one who's like now i had a great life great parents everything was good uh normally they're not that funny normally it's the people who ate on family trauma yeah it's trauma is the birth of comedy well i think that just comes from trying to make the best out of a shitty situation of life yeah i know i mean that's what what what happened so it makes it fun now athletes i i can't speculate i don't know specifically like wrestlers it seems like they're the ones that oh well problem same problem was back in the day of i mean of course
Starting point is 01:17:44 their schedule you know they're they're you know i don't know if you've seen like the vince mcmahon documentary at all but a lot of those wrestlers you know back in the day they're working you know seven days a week for for months straight and they're told you know hey yeah you can take time off we can't guarantee your spot will be here when you get back but you can go ahead and take time off. No, everybody was getting on the juice back then. I don't know today. You know, I think the juice has improved. You know, I think it used to be the juice they did would make you crazy
Starting point is 01:18:14 and made many people absolutely crazy. I think now there's a lot of things like HGH and all of the stem cell stuff and different things like that that have come along that have replaced a lot of the old anabolic steroids and stuff. At least I think so. I don't know. You might know better than I would. Well, when I was doing MMA, I was so, I've never done steroids in my life. I mean, I just live in a gym as much as I can to try and be as big as I am and strong as I am. At almost 50 years old old i have to work my butt off for this right and the people they say it's cheating i'm at a stage where it's not cheating because i don't
Starting point is 01:18:50 want to do it for competition i want to do it for health right right but there was a time where i wanted to do it for competition and because i'm training with tim sylvia he got busted in the ufc for after he beat randy couture for doing steroids yeah Yeah. I trained with Brock Lesnar up in Iowa. Brock has a massive history in WWE. That's how big he was. And, of course, nobody talks about The Rock. Nobody talks about that monster. I've talked about it many times.
Starting point is 01:19:16 It is transformation. Nobody talks about it. But I know at the time, in my mind, I didn't even know how. I wouldn't even know how to get it at the time, in my mind, I didn't even know how. I wouldn't even know how to get it at the time. When I retired from fighting the first time, I had a gym in Iowa, and this dude walks in, my very first customer. I actually had a dollar of his still on my wall because he was my first customer when I opened this fitness center up in Fairfield, Iowa.
Starting point is 01:19:40 This dude walks in, pimples all over him, you know, blotchy. He did not care care he was open about steroids jack dude he was talking about he he'd go to walmart and get the syringes and say his grandma has diabetes right he didn't care i mean he absolutely didn't care and then i ended up playing semi-pro football with this guy he got me on a team and i did a combine i was 33 before that even happened wow but i did that so much. The only thing that I know now when I talk to guys in the sport, I wish I had enough money because I would get stem cell myself. Yeah, stem cell's big.
Starting point is 01:20:14 My arm, this is as far as it'll open, and this is as far as it'll close. I can't close my arm. It got hyperextended by Tim Sylvia. Yeah. And then it got hyperflexed by just a white belt crazy student snapped my arm. I have uh injury in my knee i blew my knee out just hiking a mountain and yeah i wish i can get stem cell because it rebuilds the tissue right i mean that's that's the thing that they've discovered now let's go back to what you said because it's true look here's here's what
Starting point is 01:20:40 i know if i see somebody whose muscles have muscles, so when you have the shoulder muscle here, and then there's another one on top of that that's coming up, you can bet that's roid. I mean, there's no way. You cannot naturally accomplish that. Well, there are a few guys that are natural. Okay, maybe a few. There are a few guys that are blood tested.
Starting point is 01:21:02 They are natural bodybuilders. They're natural athletes. They have a genetic code. The way they eat, what they put in their body. I mean, they really are natural athletes. The extra stuff, I don't know. Well, have you seen Dave Bautista lately? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:21:17 Yeah. Holy, he's down 50, 60, 70 pounds. Yeah, no. Now, all these guys are trimming up. John Cena's trimmed up a lot. Yeah. Yeah, no, no, all these guys are trimming up. John Cena's trimmed up a lot. By the way, you know what? I kind of, you know, I discounted him going into acting because he was running the Rock playbook, which is smart.
Starting point is 01:21:34 I mean, that's what, look, if I watched The Rock do that and I was coming behind him, I'm damn sure going to try to run that playbook. You know, so I don't blame him for that. But I kind of discounted him at first. Because I was like, bro, you'll never be The Rock. Just stop, man. But you know what? To be honest with you, he's funny as hell, man.
Starting point is 01:21:54 That dude is funny. He's got a funny face. That skit from Ricky Stenicki, oh my lord. That was hilarious. I went into that movie going, this is going to be stupid. I got nothing else to watch. I loved it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:09 Ricky Senecki was a hilarious movie. It was interesting. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, yeah. I worked with John Cena down in Atlanta. I got to work with him twice. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:18 The first time. What were you on? The Peacemaker set? I was on a set. Okay okay it's not out yet i was on a set with him yeah i was on a set but um i don't i don't know if you know this but all movies have a secret title oh no i did not know that wow movies have a secret title to keep people from the hordes away okay i was downtown atlanta filming with don cheetle and kevin hart wow i got a film in fight night the the new thing that's on on pico yeah i was in fight night uh well it was already bad enough because we're right next to the state
Starting point is 01:22:59 the the public transportation station okay downtown atlanta guys coming up and this dude is drunk he wants to fight everybody he's five foot nothing he wants to fight everyone home of course he does i mean just scream and the cops are trying to get him off so there's a secret code um will trent had a code for the dog whatever the dog's name is on will trent um genesis was superman okay um well i show up to this tv show i told my wife i said honey i just got booked on my first christian tv show she's like really i'm like yeah it's called scriptures okay that was code. That was the code name. So I'm on set.

Starting point is 01:23:58 Santa, they're talking to a SWAT guy and an actual sheriff for this town in Georgia. Okay. And I see the stunt guy sitting and of course i'm taking notice because that's all i want to do because i can um elongate my career by doing stunts by doing stunts without having to kiss and make out and i won't do anything with lgbtq i will do nothing with that i'm not going to go against my morals and values and if i can just fight and kill people that'll be the best thing for me that's wrong with that morally no yeah i don't have a problem with that so they're getting these stunts ready it's a breakaway bench i'm like there's a christian film with stunts that
Starting point is 01:24:34 never happens there's nothing right christian films so i get to my mark and uh there's a stand-in i recognize this guy from superman i'm like hey i i worked with you on superman who you were he was uh keith orange sweat okay uh stand in because i worked with nathan fillion yeah there's a new uh superhero coming out by the way oh really i love nathan fillion yeah he was cool i bet he was he was a trooper his uh seems like he's real down to earth his uh his costume uh-huh oh my we were dying we were losing people on superman 30 to 40 to 50 actors a day wouldn't come back they started paying us four and five hundred dollars a day just to keep us there continuity what was the problem heat oh holy crap man we were dying this was in the sand pits of atl Yeah. My lips were sunburned.
Starting point is 01:25:25 I mean, we were losing people left and right. Wow. The military was worse because we had headgear. We had thigh pistols. We were covered head to toe. We had a black jacket on. We had everything. And, man, we were carrying 20-pound replicas, 25-pound replicas of HKs.
Starting point is 01:25:42 Some were like real HKs that were set for right yeah yeah so anyway um i completely lost my train of thought so i'm um i'm i filmed with this guy he was a stand-in he's a stand-in on this show called scriptures right and like who you standing for he goes i'm here for john i'm like Three, four minutes go by. I still have not processed what I'm doing here. Christian show, I thought it was. And I said, so you said John. Who's the actor? Who's John?
Starting point is 01:26:11 He goes, Cena. John Cena. I'm like, John Cena's in a Christian movie? And he goes, dude, this is Peacemaker. I was an idiot. I was such an idiot. That's great. was an idiot I was so I was such that's great such a great it and so here comes John Cena and here comes James Gunn's wife she's in the scene and they walk up and next thing I know here Kirby move to your left more more more now I'm in the dirt i can't figure out what's going on it's because i'm standing here
Starting point is 01:26:46 john cena is here yeah right right right i had no idea he wasn't that big no he's probably my height i'm getting how tall are you six five are you six five yeah yeah um yeah wow i didn't even know that and i literally couldn't see jobs i didn't even see you i didn't say it though yeah that's great it was so cool you know i'll tell you the best part about you're asking about you know actors and yeah i've been around some crazy i mean some big names right obviously massive names zoe zaldana was awesome oh is those yeah uh i was telling you about the rap party for lioness everybody's crying taylor sheridan i mean they're crying because they spent 78 days together i was on set for four days wow i met some cool people i got to work with glenn powell for over
Starting point is 01:27:42 a month down there i i like him as an actor. He's really, really good. He was great. He was fantastic. He just, he seems like a pro, you know? He was professional on everything. Everything he did, he injured himself on one night of, we're pulling 13 hour, 14 hour days. And since it's a football movie we had the georgia state state stadium down there in atlanta and um it used to be the old atlanta brave stadium i didn't know
Starting point is 01:28:11 it was amazing wow um so it's late at night because we need the night the night sky we'd film till six in the morning till the sun would come up and he was doing one of the scenes for this football TV show, and he sprained something. And you see him take a different path, and everybody starts looking, and he starts hopping. He's really limping. They're carrying him off the field. Wow.
Starting point is 01:28:39 Next day he came back, Phil. Next day he came back, and he filmed. Wow. Yeah, he was spot-on durable he was yeah yeah anyway about John Cena he's off he's in his trailer okay he was wearing some weird thing for the show very cool again he's different when he's on set right the way he walks because of his body's just torn up yeah he stands so there's
Starting point is 01:29:06 a crowd that's starting to build around town the word's getting out okay that's why the cops are there i found out that's why they were really there in town and uh so i go over and i start talking to them they don't know i'm nobody right so right whatever i go and talk to them there's a girl with special abilities over there dying to see john cena so i'm messing with her and her family they end up coming over and getting my autograph and coming over and getting pictures taken with me because I'm just messing with them all I mean they're so cool I'm having on it's like guys you got a backup John's gonna come out I'm not doing crowd control but I'm just farting around between scenes yeah just having a little fun with it and John came out and he signed every single
Starting point is 01:29:42 person's autograph oh yeah took pictures with everyone yeah there's a 16 17 year old girl come flying in with this massive half life-size doll of john cena oh wow and ran up to there got us autographed with him and he waited while he's got you know he's in costume yeah in character yeah yeah and uh he was so cool you know he'll go back to his trailer and practice on a keyboard. Really? That's how he zones out. Really?
Starting point is 01:30:08 I would have never guessed that, man. I know that he is the Guinness record holder for the most wishes granted or make a wish. No way. Yes, he is. By far and away. He is the number one grantor of wishes. He does an absurd number of them every year. That's a long shot.
Starting point is 01:30:26 Yeah, oh, no. It's not even close. Really. It's a considerable amount. It's an outrageous number. Well, he's 100% professional on set. I mean, he's in. Like, he does his thing.
Starting point is 01:30:37 He knows his spot. He works. He's just focused. Doesn't fart around at all. All right, so let me throw you a couple things. Have you ever been mistaken for Gronk? God, yes. Yeah, I suspected you must have.
Starting point is 01:30:50 Gronkowski all the time. Yeah. I mean, I'm in Florida. I do motivational speaking. So I'm in Florida at a team, a softball team, and I'm sitting there, and I saw the corner of my eye. One of the coaches walked by and stopped and backed up and looked in the room.
Starting point is 01:31:06 And I hear, oh, my God, Gronkowski. I start laughing. No, sir, I'm not Gronkowski. Every airport, J.J. Watt, Brock Lesnar, Gronkowski. I could see Liam Neeson possibly. You know? Yeah, I bet. But Gronk, I can definitely see you getting the gronk one man that's the
Starting point is 01:31:25 most one that i yeah especially when i travel i i bet yeah if you put on a ball cap i bet for sure they're like oh can i get your autograph mr gronkowski yeah do you ever just go with it yeah here you go 100 i was in port doing a commercial and i told this guy that walked by that i was john cena and his mouth dropped open he wanted to take a picture so bad and uh and I was about to go back and film the set and the direct one of the directors or the ladies that was working the the agency she starts laughing I said what she goes he just walked off he goes yes as he was looking at his phone I had so much fun I don't do it to be mean no it's just I have I have fun with them. They don't know. So why do I have to turn them down? No, I think I think it's great. It's hilarious. And it makes their day
Starting point is 01:32:09 until they figure out that it wasn't John. My wife said that. It looks like. Oh, shit. Yeah. All right. The Timu version. Timu. Timu. Yeah. Get it right. Would you hear? Let's do this. You know what? As a real estate agent, putting you with the right mortgage person is critical. One of my favorites to work with is Josh Taylor at AMC Mortgage. And I'll tell you why. A lot of guys out there are stiff. They treat you like a number. Josh treats you like a friend. He's going to work through with you on everything you need. Look, he just got a pair of my clients into a home with $500 total. Yeah. Hey, paid the closing and the down payment costs all covered in there. I'm not saying that's what you're going to get, but I'm saying that's how good he is. Check him out. Give him a call. Three, five, one, two, five, seven,
Starting point is 01:33:03 nine. It's Josh Taylor at AMC Mortgage. If you're looking for a local mortgage guy, that's one that I recommend. Have you been injured? You need an attorney with a passion for people and an obsession with justice. That attorney is Tim Reed in Little Rock. Look, they've won $1.3 million in wrongful death, almost a million in medical malpractice and in insurance dispute. These guys know what they're doing, but more importantly, he's not a figurehead of some kind. He's not just some person on a poster with a picture of a rig or a smile or his dog with him. This is a real guy you can text with, you can talk to, and who will take good care of you. He'll work
Starting point is 01:33:42 with you personally to get what you deserve. Check out readfirm.com, readfirm.com, or give him a call, 777-7333. All right, so what's going to happen now? We have got a brand-new segment we're going to try out today, and his name is XFL Jim. And if you love football, he's a different kind of cat. Trust me, he is.
Starting point is 01:34:08 I think he might be the right kind of fit for us. You know, if you like college football, if you like NFL, if you like XFL, XFL Jim is insane, but he may be very entertaining to you. So we're going to launch this, and when we come back here in just a little bit I guess that everything is going to be set up where I can get body slammed for a table. Is that accurate?
Starting point is 01:34:33 I mean I don't have a choice here. I have to honor the bet so I'm going to do it. Am I ready? I mean I don't know. We'll find out. I'm not even sure the guy can pick me up to be honest with you. I'm a little hesitant to believe he can even do that. He said he eats guys like you for breakfast. I eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast.
Starting point is 01:34:52 Did you eat shit for breakfast? No. No. I just ate. I just ate. Down by the bay. That's right. All right, everybody.
Starting point is 01:35:01 Take a look at this and, well, give us some feedback. All right? Here we go. This is XFL Jim, baby. All right, everybody, take a look at this and well, give us some feedback. this coming week of NFL action. And of course, we have an exciting interview with none other than the Tit Goblin. Let's get rounding up. We begin, of course, by looking at the biggest weekend of college football action. It was rivalry weekend. There's a couple big points I'd like to hit and a few key games that I want to look into. First off, I love the fights. I love the brawls. Teams were planting flags left and right. It was awesome. It was beautiful. It's what makes college football such a fun sport. It's just, it's hate. And what makes sports better than just clean, old-fashioned hate? Getting into the games, we had Memphis 34, Tulane 24, knocking Tulane out of the playoffs.
Starting point is 01:36:12 They were on pace. They were on track. If Boise was to fall, now the playoff G5 picture all hinges on the Mountain West Conference Championship game. Georgia 44, Georgia Tech 42. Speaking of clean old-fashioned hate, eight overtimes is damn near crazy. Georgia Tech, they did it. They, like, tried.
Starting point is 01:36:33 They did their best. Haynes King put his body on the line. But I don't understand when you're down this many cornerbacks, this much. Like, you're here. You've made it to overtime against your rival who is way better than you. Way bigger. Why do you not go for two in the first overtime just to try and get it out of the way
Starting point is 01:36:51 as soon as possible? Colorado 52. Oklahoma State 0. This is the worst Mike Dundee team I have ever seen from my perch here in the garage. It is something to behold. Colorado laid it on them. Trying to make a case for Travis Hunter, Heisman. Chances, I think they're pretty good myself.
Starting point is 01:37:09 South Carolina 17, Clemson 14, the Palmetto Bowl. Clemson, this game did not matter for their ACC championship berth. They relied solely on someone else for that, and they're still technically alive for the playoffs. For South Carolina, this caps off a fantastic season, but you also have to think what could have been if they didn't get jobbed by LSU or lose close against Alabama.
Starting point is 01:37:31 They would be sitting in the playoffs right now. Tennessee 36, Vanderbilt 23. Vanderbilt got out to a quick lead and then Tennessee stomped them into the fucking dirt. This one basically cements Tennessee into the playoffs here. Michigan 13, Ohio State 10. What? Just what?
Starting point is 01:37:51 I seriously think that Jim Harbaugh did irreparable damage to Ryan Day when he called Ohio State soft. Because Ohio State had ways to win this game. Yes, Will Howard threw some bad picks. You still have the best receiving group in the entire country. Why do you not try and do something with that? Why do you insist
Starting point is 01:38:14 on running the ball when your offensive line has been damaged and dinged up? Why are you not running outside? Why are you not doing screen stuff? I don't understand why Ryan Day insists on trying to beat Michigan the Michigan way when you can beat them in a very fun Ohio State sort of way. Just why?
Starting point is 01:38:34 Syracuse 42, Miami 38. This one shakes up a lot. Miami gets knocked out of the ACC championship game, which remember, they have never made the ACC championship game. Syracuse, Fran Brown, he gets to shower. Great. This also sets Clemson up to face SMU in the ACC championship game. It's going to be awesome.
Starting point is 01:38:57 It's going to be fun. But this one, Miami was up, and then in the second half, it was just back and forth. Syracuse battles back, trading touchdowns and then I don't understand why Mario Cristobal insists on being a stupid guy all the time, but he does it again.
Starting point is 01:39:14 Why do you kick the field goal? You guys are trading touchdowns left and right. Your offense can't be stopped and you can't stop their offense. Just go for it. Okay? I don't know. Whatever. Whatever. Penn State 44, Maryland 7. Yeah, this is Penn State, Maryland. I just wanted to mention this one because James Franklin
Starting point is 01:39:31 and Mike Loxley got into it a little bit after the game. James Franklin was 100% right in his post-game conference when he was talking about, hey, if you want us to stop scoring touchdowns when we're up big, when we have our threes in, do something about it. He's doing his job. He has his threes in. And you need style points now anyway, so I don't want to hear it.
Starting point is 01:39:51 Notre Dame 49, USC 35. Two. We now have two new records, I think, for Notre Dame's longest interceptions. One at 99 yards and then one at 102 yards. Basically within four minutes of each other real time. It felt like crazy. This game, it was, USC could move the ball. They could. So that was a little bit, that's a little bit of a worry for Notre Dame going forward, but they still handle business against the, this was the best offense on their schedule since what, Louisville, right?
Starting point is 01:40:23 This was the best offense on their schedule since what, Louisville? Right? Like, come on. Indiana 66, Purdue 0. Exercise your demons. Like, exercise those demons, man. Kurt Signetti just laid the what-out fake punts when you're up like 40. The ones in when you're up 50.
Starting point is 01:40:42 This was gross. And then Texas 17. Texas A&M 7. Yeah, Texas' defense really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really good. Texas A&M could do nothing offensively. Their only points coming from pick 6. And it just goes to show
Starting point is 01:40:59 this Texas defense, they can reload. That's powerful. This team comes into the SEC year 1 and is playing in the championship game, swinging their nuts around. That's what these Longhorns are fucking doing. Texas A&M, again, 8-4. I don't know how they do it. It's like three coaches now, but it's Texas A&M, 8-4.
Starting point is 01:41:23 Every single year, you can book it. It's actually crazy. Now, looking ahead for college football, we have the conference championship games set before us. Here are my picks going forward. So, for the Conference USA, these are in chronological order, by the way. Conference USA, Western Kentucky versus Jacksonville State. J-Mill State is a four-point favorite. I'm going Western Kentucky versus Jacksonville State. J-Ville State is a four-point favorite. I'm going Western Kentucky here.
Starting point is 01:41:45 I think Western Kentucky got the win this week when they played already, not conference championship, but now they're playing again. I think J-Ville State, their running back, is still a little bit hurt. I like Western Kentucky here. Tulane versus Army. Tulane, five-and-a-half-point favorite. I got a favor, Tulane. I think they were looking past Memphis.
Starting point is 01:42:01 I think they were looking to their conference championship game. Army, of course, has a very good shot here, but I think Tulane squeaks think they were looking past Memphis. I think they were looking to their conference championship game. Army, of course, has a very good shot here, but I think Tulane squeaks out with the win. Maybe take Army plus the 5.5, though. UNLV versus Boise State rematch for the Mountain West championship game. This one was tough.
Starting point is 01:42:17 I favor Boise because they have the best player on the field with Ashton Genting. The guy is insane, and maybe he just goes off. But UNLV, this is going to be a very, very tough matchup. And then the winner of this one will go to the playoffs, I believe. Iowa State, Arizona State for the Big 12. It was finally decided after BYU defeated Houston on Saturday night. I think I got to go Iowa State. They just have some weird magic. First 10-win season.
Starting point is 01:42:47 I'm going to say first time winning the Big 12. First playoff. And they're going to shock the world. This is going to be an Iowa State postseason. Just you watch. In the math, Ohio versus Miami of Ohio. I got to go Miami of Ohio. I've watched a lot of Ohio teams through multiple coaches.
Starting point is 01:43:03 They make it to the championship game. They fail consistently. Big SEC. Georgia. Texas. Give me Georgia here. I see Georgia in the SEC championship game. I'm going to go Georgia. I see it. That's what I'm going for almost every single
Starting point is 01:43:20 time. In the Sun Belt, Marshall versus Louisiana-Lafayette. Give me ULL. The West is better than the East this year, I believe. I think Louisiana is one of the bigger surprises of the season. ACC, Clemson, SMU. SMU all day. Clemson has lost to almost every good team that they have played
Starting point is 01:43:36 this season. I think SMU is a really good team. And then the Big Ten, Penn State, Oregon. It's Penn State. What are we doing? Oregon's going to win the game. This is Penn State, coached by James Franklin. Yeah, we're going Oregon 10 times out of 10 here. Oh, boy.
Starting point is 01:43:55 We got a fun week coming up, don't we? Hello there, folks. XFL Jim here at XFL Jim's Knife Emporium. One-stop shop for the best knives around what am I talking about when I'm talking about knives well we have your tactical knife here this baby is good in a pinch self-defense chopping down trees you know revenge this knife is a great quality knife for a loved one to buy it comes in black chrome or uh slate those are those are gonna be good ones for you we also have the wonderful um wood style sort of switchblade

And some quick takes from the National Football League for you freaks who actually enjoy that thing out there. I just, it's very corporate and it's not sexy. It's not dingy like I like.
Starting point is 01:45:47 Like I marry. Like a dirty whiskey in a dusty glass that hasn't been cleaned. That's how the football I enjoy tastes. The NFL is like a crisp beer out of the fridge that has been chilled to perfection and somehow just doesn't taste as good. I don't know. The Bears fire Matt Eberflus there. They did it.
Starting point is 01:46:14 They did the unthinkable. They fired a coach midseason. He is that damn bad. Yeah, this makes total sense. The Bears are looking. They have good weapons. I think Caleb Williams has been improving. I am excited to see what they do in the coaching search.
Starting point is 01:46:30 The Chiefs keep getting away with it, by the way. That's my next point. The Chiefs keep getting away with it. This Raiders game. And A, the Raiders were stupid for kicking the field goal when they did. I think they should have gone for it. Would have ended up being the same situation if they didn't get it anyway. But that's neither here nor there.
Starting point is 01:46:50 The Chiefs keep getting away with this weird juju magic, and I'm sorry. I cannot stand for it. There's something in the air whenever the Chiefs play. Bengals dead. Bengals killed, dead. Turn them into a rug. I don't care what you do. Just get them off of my screen.
Starting point is 01:47:08 The way they are wasting Joe Burrow in this offense right now is deplorable. The Eagles equal great. Capital G-R-E-A-T. Great. The Eagles are probably a top two team in the NFL right now. I'm just sorry. That's how they're playing. Josh Allen's my MVP. I'm calling it right now. I'm just sorry. That's how they're playing. That's how they're playing. And Josh Allen's my MVP. I'm calling it right now. Josh Allen, MVP. The guy does it all. He throws, he catches, he dives, he runs, he scores touchdowns like crazy.
Starting point is 01:47:34 Yes, yes, yes. Now, looking forward to week 14 of the NFL, I'm going to give you a couple three things of advice here. I have three plays for you gambling inclined people out there. A couple three things of advice here. I have three plays for you gambling inclined people out there. A couple three things here. I'm taking
Starting point is 01:47:50 the Packers-Lions over 51. That's right. Packers-Lions over 51. You know what that means. It's going to be pointy. The Lions defense banged up. Their offense can score on anyone. Give me that over there. Raiders plus seven. Feisty. Feisty
Starting point is 01:48:06 team. Baker Mayfield and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Not. I mean, they're good. They're really really good. But I just, I love the hoods that this Raiders team is playing with right now. Number 3, give me the Cowboys-Bengals over 49. This could get ugly
Starting point is 01:48:22 but I just, I like overs in Bengals games because their offense is electric and their defense can do nothing. So once again, Packers lines over 51 Raiders plus seven and Cowboys bangles over 49. That's the NFL bit for today. Let's go. It's at this point in the show that I would like to introduce someone. If you're very hashtag growth certified, know what's going on in the world of me and the garage and all that. You know this guest. But if you don't, give us a big round of applause for the Tit Goblin, everybody. Okay.
Starting point is 01:48:55 Tit Goblin, or TG, I guess we can call you. I just have a couple questions. The same interview process for every show. Let's just start with an easy one, guess what sports do you enjoy watch well first off I'd like to say thank you for having me on exit though Jim Oh favorite sport okay what's your favorite storylines going on right now in just the world of sports? Oh, my favorite story line going on right now is Mike Taysom's butt. It's been something I've been calling on for a long time. Okay.
Starting point is 01:49:34 Do you gamble on sports? I know sports gambling is a big thing going on right now in today's atmosphere. Do you partake? I do gamble a little bit, though. It's really just on the WNBA. Okay, two more. I'm a football first guy. Give me your Super Bowl picks.

Starting point is 01:51:15 What a community cable channel thing. I know, right? It is so amazing, man. The guy has been viral several times online with some of his rants. And so, you know, we offered him the segment because he didn't have a segment anywhere. And so, well, let's see what you can do, man. Just try it out, you know. That was definitely worth everything that you paid for it, man.

Starting point is 01:52:12 They did. Somehow, some way, it did happen. You're right. They came close to me getting, because your part of the bet was that if Ohio won, I had to get tortured by Demanda. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was very nonchalant. And, uh, when, when, when I made, I said, I told my wife, I said, look at this guy here. He's trying to, he's trying to swell up on me with Ohio state. Are you kidding me this year with that shit?
Starting point is 01:52:35 Michigan's doing they're trash, man. I know you called them the JV scrub team. I did. They were the JV scrub team. And then you guys had your 20 million dollar team yeah no we we have all the money we have everything that you're supposed to have at ohio state to win and you see what happened right so i do want to know though just for my side what what method were you going to have demand to go uh well i was thinking about using the kendo stick yeah okay yeah i was thinking about having her light you up with the kendo stick a few times i thought that would be sweet well uh but i need to get on this yeah i would love i want a gut punch yeah i mean one one just i just want one punch somebody lose bring me in for a gut we do okay oh you want to do the okay okay my fighters we do a burnout and

Yeah, I do. I saw it earlier and I was like, geez, man, I would never want to be hit by that guy.
Starting point is 01:53:55 And here I am going, I'll be hit by that guy. Yeah, I'm an idiot. So with that being said, I'd like to introduce you to Chris Starks, a.k.a. Jimmy Buffay. Jimmy Buffay. I've been hearing about you, man. Here's question one.
Starting point is 01:54:09 Can you pick my fat ass up? Probably. Probably. See, that's inspiring right there. That's very inspiring. Okay. He was the inaugural heavyweight champion for Vapors Championship. Oh, really?
Starting point is 01:54:23 He was their first champion. Yeah, it was a terrible idea on their part, but I'm glad they did it. I'm glad I finally got to be a champion and make a champion entrance. But, I mean, look at me. I'm a big idiot. Nah, dude, you were well worth it, and we were glad to have the championship on you. Unfortunately, he lost it at the end of last year to troy twain in the last man standing match well i took advantage of him
Starting point is 01:54:50 and ended up handcuffing him to a uh to a corner post and he couldn't answer the count of 10 no i can understand i mean if you're handcuffed it's a chain oh it's the chains that yeah oh okay okay we'll be returning back in march and he's going to be here representing VCW in the Arken Brawl. Which is in January. And if you haven't heard about Arken Brawl, it's going to be right here at the Legion Scaffold Broadcast Studio Center, where we'll have a ring set up. We've got four independent wrestling leagues that are bringing in competitors. And so there'll be eight matches.
Starting point is 01:55:24 Here's the great thing. It's absolutely free. Yes. It's absolutely free. You can come up, see the studio, come to the event. We're going to have,
Starting point is 01:55:32 uh, I think hot dogs cooking. Uh, it's going to be awesome. It's going to be a lot of fun. I talked to you, you know, maybe during the matches,
Starting point is 01:55:39 we can get you there to do some comedy. Yeah. I think I'm going to do a little bit of stuff. Uh, might get up and do a little stand up and, and have a little bit of fun with folks too yeah sounds like uh i haven't done any while so it'd be fun to do something right you know it'd be a good time to tell you what i look forward to what do you look forward to i never hear you say it so i don't know if i'm gonna upset you by saying this you know what i love to listen to you on the radio what's that
Starting point is 01:56:02 angry patrick oh yeah no it's that happens happens every Friday I'll be doing getting ready for that tomorrow to the rant was my favorite now I mean he's gonna blow a valve yeah last week was rant 801 wow it'll be 802 this week it's cool man thank you when did you start angry patrick because that's when i knew you man um so i had been on the show as um uh the real critic uh uh uh more of an anti-movie critic critic you know and i did that for you know probably two years uh started at lick uh the station we no longer speak of we used to call it but uh lick 1063 and uh i was there with them they got fired and when they went to the edge they wanted me to come back you know with them and so i did but after a little bit i was like listen i'm so tired of watching crappy movies
Starting point is 01:57:02 because the only ones that are fun to rant about are the terrible ones you know and so you man i'm most of the time nobody wants to go watch a shit movie with you you know they're like no i don't want to go watch that you know so i'm by myself and i was like i'm tired of going to these movies man can i just talk about whatever i want and he said well yeah what are you going to call yourself and so i changed it to patrick the angry viewer but when websites came into vogue i was like nobody's going to call yourself? And so I changed it to Patrick the Angry Angry Viewer. But when websites came into vogue, I was like, nobody's going to type that shit. You know? So I said, let me just go Angry Patrick.
Starting point is 01:57:30 And when I shortened it and started ranting about pop culture, that's when it took off. You know, that's when my stand-up started. That's when I was syndicated all over the country. It was crazy, you know crazy how that happened from one character that started as kind of a call-in, and then I'd show up every Friday, and then that led to me co-hosting and filling in,
Starting point is 01:57:57 and then boom, I was half of the show then for 13, 14 years. So yeah, it's been a great character. You know what I mean? It was one of my favorite to listen to. Well, yeah. Every Friday it still happens. You can go back and watch Rants from the Past. Now, we're getting ready to do this body slam, but first a couple of things. Number one is, look, maybe you need a roof. Okay. You're thinking about getting a roof. I want you to go to titanroofingcompany.com. It's a family business. They've been here a long time in Arkansas. They've got offices in, I know, Hot Springs and Little Rock and Conway. So no matter where you are, they can help you out. Here's what they can do.
Starting point is 01:58:35 Even if you, let's say you had someone come out and your roof replacement was turned down, these guys specialize in getting it approved. Not only that, you get a 10-year warranty that's transferable. That's the number one question everybody ever asks when they buy a house. How old is the roof? I swear to God, 99% of the time, that's the first question out of everyone's mouth. It's that important. So having that transferable warranty makes a difference. Go to TitanRoofing.com. And if you need heat and air, you want to talk to my good friends at Cabot Mechanical HVAC, David Lindsey. He's the service manager. He's phenomenal, man.
Starting point is 01:59:14 You're going to love working with the guy. He's people just like us. He's down to earth, and he's not going to rip you off. And that's what you're looking for in a heat and air guy, because a lot of them take their head off. I had a guy that told me I need to replace the whole unit 10 it was really about nine grand uh i got a second opinion david came out it was 187 dollars later i said you are my heat and air guy until i die bro uh check them out cabotmechanical.com or give them a call uh 502 27 all right? And check those guys out. Now, it is time. I have procrastinated.
Starting point is 01:59:47 I have run segments. I have done everything I possibly could to avoid this. You told me to change the number. Yeah. Yeah, that was it. I said, new phone, who dis? No habla. Yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 01:59:58 So now we're going to have to do it. So here's what's going to happen. I'm going to change this. Rich, you're going to continue to kind of narrate what's going to happen i'm going to change this uh uh rich you're going to continue to kind of narrate what's going on for everyone while i'm doing this right absolutely all right so let me change over this camera angle let's uh see if we can now hold on i always mess this up but i'm going to try not to look at that look at that perfect okay and uh well that is a beautiful table man okay let's see how this is gonna work here uh does this zoom back hold on one second let me just see if this will zoom back
Starting point is 02:00:34 uh yeah oh hey that way we can get a real nice wide shot of me getting my ass slammed through a table all right you rich you got the uh the comm here yeah yeah before we do it can we get a michael bay or yeah michael bay lens player what is it you want a michael bay lens oh yeah just a real quick light flare uh yeah no i i don't have that uh built in here i have this it my show, we do it my way!

Starting point is 02:02:32 Of all the stuff that I've never been slammed through a table, did that hurt? What do you think? Dude, it looks like that freaking hurt. What do you think? I think it hurt. Yeah, no, my back is radiating up and down i may not walk today i don't know yet jimmy says if you if you need a drink of his you know get

Starting point is 02:03:48 I am that guy. Are you ever going to place another bet with me again? Yeah, absolutely, man. You got lucky on this one. But I pay up my bets. Yes, you do. Thank you. You are a man of your word.
Starting point is 02:03:59 I am. I paid up on the bet, and I'll probably pay for the rest of the day, maybe the month. Maybe I won't walk again. I'm not sure that my L7 didn't come out on the bet and I'll probably pay for the rest of the day, maybe the month. Maybe I won't walk again. I'm not sure that my L7 didn't come out on the floor. It's very possible. And of all days for Dr. Marla, the physical therapist, to not be here, I have to have my back broken for entertainment purposes and not have my physical therapist here well

I promise you, that'll be cut and put into a TikTok today. Oh, for sure. Yeah, you can bet on that one coming out on media today. For sure. That's a top-notch moment right there.

Yeah? Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 02:09:27 I listened to you on the radio for so long, and now I've, you know, gotten to see you get body slammed through a table. And that's a real happy time for you, isn't it? It was definitely on the bucket list of items. Real happy times. It was good, man. It was fun. I enjoyed that.
Starting point is 02:09:39 I always enjoy, you know, of course, Michigan beating Ohio State. Let's not talk about that. I had to suffer on top of it. I'm done with all this conversation. Greatest win ever. Celebrate it now. The celebration's short-lived. We need to do this.
Starting point is 02:09:55 Let's do this, okay? Listen up now, I'll tell you a story Without a doubt, it's kind of gory It's the worst news you could ever hear Things just like this make you fear Lying lunched on a dumb guy's knee Or a big hard fuck drowning somebody Why you laughing why are you laughing why are you laughing this shit ain't funny no it's not if you do laugh you're probably going
Starting point is 02:10:33 to hell i'll be honest with you uh here we go so we talked a little bit about this earlier but the at-large suspect who gunned down unitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside a Midtown hotel may have left a message on the bullets he used to kill him Wednesday morning, according to police sources. The NYPD is investigating the possible message, which appears to include the words words, deny, depose, and defend engraved on live rounds and shell casings left behind by the assassin after he shot him several times at about 6.46 a.m. before he pled. The words are very similar to a 2010 book condemning the insurance business in which Thompson is one of the most powerful leaders. the insurance business in which Thompson is one of the most powerful leaders.
Starting point is 02:11:32 So this is definitely a hit of some kind, but delay, deny, defend, two of the three words seemingly left is the subtitle, why insurance companies don't pay claims and what you can do about it. So maybe, you know, he's one of those John Q guys. You know, maybe, you know what I'm saying? No no i that's a distraction i think you're exactly right i you you got to it so quickly but you're right no that's that's a sell uh the engraving if look as you pointed out the guy was catching shell casings as they're coming out you know if he left something he left it on purpose with reason and all of that is a razzmatazz you know it's a decoy it's a red herring whatever you want to call
Starting point is 02:12:13 it uh because somebody wanted this guy smoked yeah it's more or less that's what it is isn't it more or less yeah he got smoked out. Man, that's crazy, bro. That is a crazy thing. It brought daylight, too. I mean, how bold is this guy? He hung out all day. People saw him. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:12:33 Sitting there in the hoodie. Now, I don't know if they actually could identify him, if he had a face covering. I know he had a face covering when he did it, but I don't know if he had all day or not. So, we'll probably learn more. This is another one we talked briefly about earlier, but the search for the grandmother believed to have fallen into a sinkhole continued. Pennsylvania authorities encountered unstable portions of the abandoned mine. Now, Elizabeth Pollard, she's 64. She was looking for her lost cat Pepper when she
Starting point is 02:13:06 disappeared you see cats are in fact demons this one ushered her right to hell knew what was going on it let her out there's little Elizabeth little Beth little Beth Pollard she's you know 64 years old looking for Pepper, and Pepper led her right to the hole. So, yeah, stand right here. Meow. Yeah. Marguerite, a sparsely populated village, is vulnerable to sinkholes due to past mining activity. Authorities believe that she fell into the former mine, which was last operated in 1952.
Starting point is 02:13:42 Here's a question. Why the hell did they build houses over an abandoned mine? That's a start right there. I mean, who allowed that to happen? Did they know? Was it their land? And they just took their own chance? Because I'm thinking if that was the city. Where was this at? This is in Pennsylvania, man. That sounds like this is a foreign country. It does sound like that, doesn't it? I mean, it sounds sounds like this is a foreign country it does sound like that doesn't it i mean it sounds crazy enough to be a foreign country uh authorities were hoping she was still alive but because temperatures dropped to freezing and it's been like two days uh they're pretty sure
Starting point is 02:14:17 at this point that she is uh like you said man that cat led her straight to the straight to the door well yeah of course that cat's down there going we all float down here that's right that's exactly right uh speaking of other countries a controversial red card in a soccer match and you know what there's no sport where you see people go nuts like soccer i mean they will they will, they pull out knives, they stab each other, they kick each other down the bleachers. They don't give a damn. A controversial red card in a soccer match ignited violence in Southeast Guinea. According to the government, 56 people were killed in the chaos. The disputed red card was delivered in the match's 82nd minute and was followed by the throwing of stones, police fire, and tear gas.
Starting point is 02:15:08 What came next was a massive Russian scramble where one witness saw people fall to the ground and girls and kids get trampled, scrambled over high walls to escape. People were trying to get out. 56 people. Over soccer. Soccer. That sounds just like a regular soccer game no it
Starting point is 02:15:28 really does doesn't it yeah little league good lord you know a lot of people die at the little league soccer i'll come watch it if they do no that's uh you know what i didn't know that it's little jimmy's mom yeah little jimmy's mom she'll just run up there deck the coach right in the face for no reason. You know, I'm telling you, man. Parents with some of the sports parents get real intense out there, don't they? That is true. Especially my mom.
Starting point is 02:15:53 She almost threw hands with my vice principal once. Yeah. His mom says you actually know her. Like, you guys have been friends for years. Yeah. Whose mom? My mom. Your mom?
