You go live with your products.
You can link directly there.
They can shop directly.
It's just like QVC.
So if you don't have to pick up the phone and call, you can buy it straight to the app.
And live shopping has become all the rage.
I'm a practical marketer.
And with like this kind of stuff, and with some things as hot as what Roblox is for this age group,
you're trying to get ahead of them and find ways to market to them because they're not watching TV.
No.
Then this makes a lot of sense to me, especially when you execute it well.
We're listening to the radcast.
If it's radical, we cover it.
Here's your host, Ryan Alford.
Hey guys, what's up?
Welcome to the latest edition of the radcast.
It's Friday, November 26, 2021.
Happy Black Friday, Joe Hammer.
Happy Black Friday to you, Ryan.
I mean, you know.
Yeah, I do.
Lots of deals out there.
The only deal I care about is getting to hang out with you.
Oh, okay.
I thought you could say the green.
It was on sale.
buy one, get one free.
You like it?
I do.
It's a good start.
Good start.
Good start.
How are you today, my friend?
I'm doing real well.
How about you?
Oh, you know, just living the dream here on Black Friday.
Still full.
Yeah.
Full of it.
Well, you always were.
Something's never changed.
Oh, boy.
How's the week been?
How's Turkey Week family?
Good.
Yeah.
I told you, I think I mentioned last week,
that we were going to my wife's,
uh,
parents house.
We did that.
So when about is planned?
That's,
we did that.
Yep.
And then,
uh,
here we are.
Yeah.
I'm,
I'm,
I'm alive and it's cold outside and radcast.
I know.
Exactly.
Are you a black Friday shopper?
Ryan.
I know.
No.
No.
I did so one time.
Are you a cyber Monday shopper?
Am I a shopper?
What is the question?
Yeah.
Then the answer is read my lips.
Yeah.
I like so I could play them.
Okay, took care of it for me.
One time I went to get some beats headphones for my daughter.
It was about four or five years ago, and it was fucking terrible.
I can be honest with you.
I mean, who wants to deal with the crowds?
This wasn't even, this was Thanksgiving night.
I think it's right around when Walmart started doing that.
No.
Isn't what online shopping made to like get rid of all the pains and sorrows of having to go do that?
I think some people like it.
It's almost like a masochistic situation.
Yeah, where I'm like, I'm going to go get the deal.
Not find a parking space.
And then waiting this line.
Way too long to get a TV that's $100 off.
It's not even, they're not even, I mean, come on.
It's not like anything's free.
They're all double half specials now.
Double the price and cut in half.
Yeah, cut in half.
Yeah.
That's a good one.
That's, when I owned a car dealership, I got out of, you know, a standing friends and family double half special.
Yeah.
They come in at Ryan, I know you.
I got the double half special just for you, buddy.
Just for you.
I'll throw some undercarriage.
Coding.
Just for you.
You think you hate it now?
Way to drive it.
Yes.
Yes.
That's good.
Yes.
So, yeah, no Black Friday for me.
There's some pretty good deals out there, though.
I do need a, we have a TV in the bedroom that I may or may not have bang the corner in the pixel and out.
Ooh.
Was that during a Clemson game?
Well, we take it back and forth to the boat.
And one of those trips dinged it pretty good, the screen.
Had a couple white claws.
Yeah, like 27.
Yeah.
Save it go down easy in the summertime, my friend.
They're pretty delicious.
So my kid likes my daughter that's of drinking age, likes the black cherry.
Those are the worst ones.
Yeah.
It's like medicine.
Anything cherry that's like artificial flavor.
Like, there's only one thing.
today's episode brought to you by Alani New.
Cherry Slush Alani News are the only cherry-flavored drink that I've ever had.
It actually tastes like a cherry slush puppy, which is tasty.
Tasty as hell.
It doesn't taste like medicine.
Most of the stuff does, maybe it's alcohol-based, and cough medicine.
You know, when I'm pounding it.
You love it.
You love it so much.
Going in an old alka-sulzer.
What a rob a robo hole.
Yeah.
And an R hole.
Our hole.
A little heavy on the tussin.
The tuss hole.
Oh.
Oh.
I just drank a ton of robotussing right before this.
That's why we're so jolly.
Ooh.
You know.
What's that green squirrel doing over there?
That's weird.
I thought it was purple.
Hey.
You know, microdosing.
What's up we didn't microse?
Macro.
Macro.
Macro at my microdose.
Have you been heard about all the microdosing?
I have.
I'm interested.
I am too.
Supposedly it's like, like gives you energy and you don't, you know, it's like you're not tripping or anything.
So I've heard people of, I've heard about people microdosing ketamine.
Yeah.
Right.
That's some college experience.
Yeah.
Speaking of our holes.
Not our holes.
But you know what I mean.
I know you, man.
You get it.
Yep.
But, yeah, acid, ketamine, mushrooms maybe?
Could you even?
I guess you could.
Mixing these?
Are we?
No, microdose.
Okay.
Oh, boy.
Holy shit, dude.
No.
I don't think I'm going to do that.
Yeah, no.
No, thank you.
But microdosing.
I would try it.
Yeah.
Do you have any?
No.
I used it all.
I had a little bit of time.
Macrodosing.
Macrodose.
Got a little bit of it.
excited, you know, for the holidays.
I know how it is.
Aunt Bethany never seemed more alive.
Don't throw me down, Clark.
Yeah, Bethany.
Yes.
So it's been a good week.
It's been a short week as far as work goes.
Everybody's off today enjoying their time off.
But Brad Lee was our guest on the podcast on Tuesday.
Yep.
The CEO of VT. Life Speed, good friend and sales training expert, Brad is awesome.
He has his own podcast called Dropping Bombs.
go check it out. I was a guest in
April and he reciprocated
and came on the show and
he dropped bombs on the radcast.
Did he? He did. Very insightful.
Truth bombs? He's
he tells it like it is
and he keeps it real.
He's the real Bradley and he definitely
keeps it real. Bradley, by the way,
kind of a funny name because his name's probably
Bradley. Yeah, his last name.
Bradley Lee?
Well,
you know, probably
his proper first name is probably Bradley Bradley Lee
Bradley Lee
Bradley yeah just saying
just saying cool I'm jealous is what it is
Brad's cool and I see cool
he's very successful and has a lot of
good insight so go check that off if you hadn't seen it
and then next week Jonathan Sinto
who is a celebrity chef
yes past celebrity chef he's
still technically a celebrity chef you never
not become a celebrity chef but
But talked about being on one of the many television cooking shows.
He's doing his own thing.
He's got his own personal brand.
He's doing a lot for feeding hungry and doing a lot of initiatives for underprivileged and stuff using his kind of celebrity and his ability.
And so really look up to him.
And he was a really great guest.
So we recorded probably he's been a while eight or nine weeks ago.
So I'm glad that episode's coming out.
So that's coming out Tuesday.
Okay.
So the day after Cyber Monday.
The day, I'll probably still have my Cyber Monday hangover.
Yeah.
So you'll definitely want to listen to him to talk about food and all that he's up to.
So check out that episode next week.
And as usual, it's an interesting week for our social holidays.
Oh, boy.
I'm excited.
I mean, yesterday was one of the biggest holidays.
Thanksgiving was yesterday.
Hopefully you didn't miss that.
That would be hard to miss.
We promised to get ahead of the social calendar at some point.
but that's not this week.
It's not happening.
Because yesterday was Thanksgiving.
If you didn't, if you missed it, you really fucked up.
Probably should have mentioned that one last week.
Last week.
Yeah.
But again, Christmas is coming up on the 25th of December.
Perfect.
Well done.
Well done.
We're ahead of it.
There's a couple coming after that too.
We'll get to that.
Yes, we'll get to that.
So, but tomorrow, or excuse me, excuse me, getting my days mixed with 25th being actual Thanksgiving.
Do you know what today is?
Well, I know it's Black Friday
Okay
But you know what the real social holiday is
I don't
National Cake Day
Cake
Cake
Okay
The day after Thanksgiving
You get to feed your face full of cake
Cake
That's the time you definitely don't want cake
Yeah
I like to have my cake and eat it too
You love that
And to be clear
It's the food stuff cake
It's not the band cake
No it's cake
Okay
It's like cake that you eat
The band cake though
They had a song
Yeah
remember what it is.
No, this is national like you bake a cake, food cake.
Yeah.
Food cake.
Food cake.
I'm going to, I kind of want some cake now to be.
But you know what?
It shares today with not only Black Friday.
It's actually National Day of Listening.
What's that?
So, yeah.
Thank you.
Yeah, National Day of Listening.
So listen to your podcast, you know.
Listen to this podcast.
I'll listen to you.
You're getting.
it done if you're listening to this podcast right now.
Okay.
You've celebrated National Day of Listening.
That's pretty meta because we're doing the podcast right now.
Yes.
Wow.
National Day of Listening, Black Friday and National Cake Day all on the same day.
Fucking blowing it out, dude.
I know.
And tomorrow is Small Business Saturday, though.
Sure it is.
You've heard of that, right?
I have heard of that, actually.
So everyone out there goes to support small businesses.
So you and I are going to go to Target, Walmart, and Sam's Club.
Uh-huh. Support those small businesses. Yeah. And I'm going to buy some stuff on Amazon, I think, after that. So, yeah. So, uh, no. I guess a small, look, I'm a small business. Radical's a small business of sorts. Sure. Yeah. I could agree with that. I don't know what. I think it's like either number of employees of certain revenue. We might be creeping out of it. Okay. Well, I don't know. We're still like $5 billion. You have the big business mindset, though. That's true. But.
True. It might have, I don't know what they would base it on.
I think it's number of employees, like 200 plus or something, it's, it's still well
under that. It's larger than you think. You're well under that, right? Yeah, well under. Well under it.
I don't. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. You wouldn't think it would be revenue because there could be
extremely successful small business, much like your own. Yeah. Still a small business. Still a small
business. So, how like keeping it small? That's what she said. You get better tax breaks.
It didn't make any sense. I think so.
The Monday, Cyber Monday, though.
I'm so excited.
Yeah.
It's funny now with e-commerce blowing, it was blown up before COVID, but now it's like really blown up people shopping e-commerce.
So Cyber Monday's lost, like, I mean, I guess if the deals were amazing, but it just seems like all the deals have been spread out now.
It seems like people started Black Friday November 1st.
Oh, yeah.
And so, like, how, you shop online.
every day now. So why Cyber Monday doesn't make as much sense to me anymore.
Yeah. And like I think we talked about earlier, I don't really feel like the deals are that good.
No. You know what I mean? And PS, how many TVs do you need?
Right. Until you break one, not me. But that's, you would never do that. You know.
But yeah, I feel like it's always TVs. I honestly feel like it's all TVs. What else do they put on sale?
Well, I saw like a deal for, you know, AirPods pros, like lowest price ever, still 170 bucks. I'm like, are you getting
Yeah.
That excited about that?
Still a lot.
Normally 225, which, yeah, it's a cut, but like, are you really getting excited about $170
AirPods?
I mean, you save 50 bucks.
I don't know, man.
If you really need them or somebody wants them as a gift, hey, sure, I'll pocket that 50 bucks.
But if you really need them, you probably already have them.
Yeah, I have a pair of my pocket.
Brack.
You got the pros?
I do.
I didn't get the pros.
Noise canceling.
I got the regulars.
And I will say this.
I'm either death or.
they're not loud enough.
Yeah.
So you know what that is?
I think that's years of wearing like a Walkman when we were like,
you know,
walking around.
And blasting music into our ears.
We did walk around with Walkmans.
And then the CD Walkman,
always skipped.
Discman?
The Discman?
It's like the Walkman tape player was much better because it didn't skip ever.
You could drop and kick that thing like Chuck Norris style.
Yeah.
And it would still play.
CD dismans like
you know like every other second.
It had the anti-skip on it.
Remember that?
It didn't work.
It did not work at all.
And they're heavy too.
Yes, very heavy.
Jeez.
What a world.
And now it's time for the Redcast with Ryan Al Gore.
I just felt like it was a good time.
That's great.
There's never a bad time.
Bruce Buffer episode is airing in two weeks.
Well,
I've been saying it forever.
I don't know.
We had so many guests back blogged.
And like, Bruce, I love you.
But, you know, and it's aligning perfect with his, it's time, energy drink launch, which
is actually coming up now.
Okay.
So he's going to get to come out, write his episode, we talked about his energy drinks.
And he was like being, you know, a month or two away.
Right.
So now when the episode launches, it's like, you know.
Yeah.
Well, I'm going to go buy some.
If, if and when that episode ever, ever airs, I'm going to go.
go buy some.
I hope they're as good as these Alani News.
I really like this.
Trophicle.
This is a good one.
I don't know why you don't have a sponsorship.
Because it's women.
They don't want a big burly man like myself.
You are burying them.
No question.
Speaking of Black Friday.
Now, I will say this.
Speaking of Burley.
Burley and Black Friday.
Alani New did like free promotion here.
They had to buy one, get one free on their 12 packs.
That's a pretty good deal.
I ordered like seven.
Wow.
Or eight exactly.
I think I got.
Four and four free.
Is it the taste?
Is that why?
They're delicious.
And I'm going to, you know what?
I'm going to grab one on my way out.
Yeah.
They're very, I don't know, pleasant.
So not a big, like, rush of energy and then, like, crash?
No, it's not, no, not at all.
And it's not, uh, it's not like those, some of those ones that have way too much in it.
Yeah.
It's like, it's definitely more than a Coke.
Okay.
But it's like, but it's not so much that you're like, br.
like, you know, like five-hour energy.
Yeah, whatever.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
Like wired.
Yeah.
What's it called?
Alani Nu.
Spell that.
A-L-A-N-I-N-U.
Elani nutrition.
Yeah.
Sure.
We just, that's a pretty good.
Good promo.
Good promo.
They need to sponsor us.
They did.
Hashtag.
Hashtag.
Al-A-L-N-U.
Yes.
But they're very good.
And back to Bruce.
It's time.
coming out any moment. And this episode will be out at any moment. I love you, Bruce. But we,
we, we, it's been popular. Guess we want to get on the radcast, man. Who doesn't? You know,
who doesn't want to get on the rag cast? I know. It's true. I got like five, I got five entries
yesterday. I mean, if you think of how much I paid you every week to be on here. It's ridiculous.
I know. Yes. I'm going broke. I know. I don't. I wish you'd stop paying me so much. I know.
I can't though. It's worth it, dude. Yes. It's worth it. So, turning to our news articles. Number
one, Walmart is hosting Twitter's first shoppable live stream in their attempt to conquer social commerce.
That's a lot of words.
I know.
So, you know, live shopping is all the rage.
And let me just, I'll get on my marketing soapbox while you digest, you know, how you want to think for a minute.
Think about for that for a second.
So we work with e-commerce brands.
And you think about QVC, selling.
live on television. Good stuff.
This is what it is now.
With Facebook and Instagram,
it's essentially QVC for the masses
on social media because you go
live with your products.
You can link directly there.
They can shop directly. It's just like QVC.
If you don't have to pick up the phone and call,
you can buy it straight to the app.
And live shopping has become all the rage.
And like Pratt Daddy, he's one of our clients,
Spencer Pratt, Heidi Montag,
love you guys.
They do this like four times a week and they crush it.
With the crystals or whatever?
Yes.
They sell out every time they do it.
People love that live engagement with the brand and buying and seeing it in kind of an organic fashion.
Instead of just static on the page, like when you go shop.
Yeah.
You know, it's like you got images and maybe you can play a video, but that live interaction is all the rage in e-commerce.
And Twitter's getting into the game with like this live selling.
Of course, Walmart, you know, being a behemoth is going to be the first one to do.
it. Right. You know. What, what are they going to sell? Uh, TVs. I don't know. But for real.
Probably. Probably. Uh, you know, probably some squid, squid game gear. Squid game. Squid game. I did watch
the squid game. You finally watched it? Yes, I did. I didn't watch it yet. Really good,
really inappropriate for kids. Like, 1,000%. Perfect. Never. I've never seen so much violence.
It's fine. So, it's so violent. Okay. Never. Ever. Ever.
when my kids watch it ever. I do like violence. Yeah. Hmm. Yeah, you would like it. It's good.
I'll watch it. Yeah. I'll watch it. I give it a thumbs up. Very good, excuse me, good storywriting. Good,
like, very good. Subtitled or it's dubbed? No, dubbed. And dubbed well. Well, okay. Yeah, I can't. Some of them are
dubbed better than others. This one's dubbed well. You wouldn't, you, you kind of forget that it's even dubbed once.
Okay. I like that. Those are the best ones. Yeah, those are good. Some of them where it's like, you know, the old, uh,
what's the old Bruce Lee movies.
Yeah.
Go get him.
You are in trouble.
You just wrote half a Bruce Lee movie right there.
That's good.
That's how much depth there is in like Return of the Dragon.
Yeah.
I will crush you.
It's about fighting.
It's about fighting.
Yeah.
But yes.
But anyway,
I don't know how we get on that tangent.
But live streaming is all the rage, Walmart,
Twitter, first shoppable live stream.
Squid game.
Go check it out.
Et cetera.
So we talked about this pre-episode Cheetos
is turning their iconic dust from the Cheetos into an art exhibit.
Iconic.
Basically trash.
Yeah.
The crumbs.
It's a nuisance.
It's crumbs.
Yeah.
Let's call it what it is.
It's crumbs.
It's called crumbs.
It's like the pizza crust you throw away.
Iconic.
Yes.
And so the crumbs from Cheetos is becoming the dust.
It's art.
partnering with a few people.
Don't remember the name.
Don't really care, honestly.
I remember the name.
Rock the bells.
Okay, sorry.
You read the show notes from better than me.
But, uh, yes, I, I, this is a PR, this is a PR thing.
Let's be honest.
Clearly.
Not, this is not like selling more Cheetos today.
This is like trying to, you know, be cool and hip with the youth or something.
You?
I don't know.
Yeah. It's like that, uh, magic angel orange dust.
Oh, boy.
Yes.
The people that did that outdoor workspace or whatever, I kind of see it as the same thing.
You're not really going to, nobody's going to be like, oh, shit, I'm going to go buy Cheetos now.
Exactly.
You were going to buy Cheetos already if you were going to buy Cheetos, right?
Yeah, it's a stunt.
Stunt it is.
So, yeah, we'll see where that goes.
Nowhere.
Nowhere.
Next on it, I do like this.
Nike has built Nike land on Robox.
Yes, I do like this.
Look.
kids age, I don't know, six to 12.
Roblox is all the rage.
And my kids are on it all the time.
So, and they're like Nike anyway.
But let me tell you, you can play dodgeball and you can try on shoes and apparel digitally.
I'm going to, I can tell you right now, my kids have probably already found it.
I'm going to be like, look, watching over their shoulder later.
I guarantee they're going to be in Nike land.
Yeah.
And so, you know, I'm a practical marketer.
And with like this kind of stuff, and with some things as hot as what Roblox is for this age group, you're trying to get ahead of them and find ways to market to them because they're not watching TV.
No.
Then this makes a lot of sense to me, especially when you execute it well.
Yeah.
It's brilliant.
It is.
And it's the metaverse, the video game metaverse, but it's at least more practical because it's the metaverse that exists today that kids are actually playing on.
Sure.
So hats off to Nike.
I'm going to give a little...
Absolutely, right.
Yes.
So, is that what?
So, quick question.
Yes.
You may not know this, but I'm going to ask anyways.
Terrible podcast etiquette.
We have no rules here.
No rules.
The Radcast motto, no rules just right.
I like it.
Wait, that, I think that's out back.
Yeah.
Good day, mate.
Anyway, the Nike stuff.
Mm-hmm.
Can you like try it on and then,
like purchase it real world?
I don't know that they've got that inner interconnectivity yet.
That would be.
I mean,
it'd be dangerous for my 11-year-old.
Yeah.
They'd run the Roblox up.
Their robux,
I think is what they're called.
I believe so.
Holy shit.
Hey,
they got seven pairs of Jordan.
Where are the hell of these shoes come from?
Their size six.
Yeah.
I'm like,
that's weird.
It doesn't fit me.
Why does my son keep getting a bunch of FedEx packages all day?
I know.
Why is my credit card?
maxed out.
Nike land,
Roblox.
A bunch of charges from Roeblancs.
It's all good, man.
It's the Metaverse.
Like, oh, great.
Oh, Dad, don't worry about it.
It became way more than meta.
It became real.
Yeah.
More matter than meta.
Yeah.
Oh, boy.
So,
interestingly enough,
I don't know if you ever shop at the dollar stores.
You know,
I mean,
where else do I shop?
Yeah, exactly.
Look how I'm dressed.
I mean, give me a break.
That's true.
But my kids like, I like going to these places like before you go to like a movie or something for the kids.
Yeah.
Load up on candy.
There's certain things that you get a dollar store that's definitely a deal that makes sense to go there.
I will say that like all our beer steins like here we have, you know, keg or whatever.
Dollar, solid deal.
You're going to pay like $4 a piece for them at like bed, bed, bath, and beyond.
It's a great deal.
I probably shouldn't have been.
Now everybody's going to go buy them and I'm going to be able to find it.
Because they do get like walk off here.
But yeah, when they're a dollar, it's different than if it's a few.
five dollars so sure you know it's four dollars difference no one walk off from stop walking off with
them but uh me yeah you're like stop jo stop yes stop taking them stop taking them but uh
they've raised their prices like most everything now is a dollar 25 and they're going to stay
with that pricing because of inflation and everything else impending so dollar tree this is dollar
tree now dollar 25 tree yeah as they're going to be it rolls off the yeah it's for they're
permanently raising your prices.
Is there an impending name change?
I don't know.
Probably not.
Yeah.
Stick with a dollar probably.
Yeah.
25% more than expected.
That's the world we live in.
Yes.
25 cents more than expected.
You're going there with a dollar and you're like, shit.
You're going to go, all the signage is going to have dollar tree and like right above
the dollar like 0.25.
Like that really rolls off the tongue.
It's almost a dollar tree.
Yeah.
Just a little bit more.
Everything's almost a dollar.
Yeah. And by almost, we mean it's more. A little bit more.
Not less. It's not 97 cents. No. No. It's $1.25.
I thought that was the pressing news of the week. Yeah. That's upsetting.
I like the round number of a dollar.
Where am I going to buy my off-season sunscreen?
Yeah. It's out of expiration date. It doesn't work that well.
They just priced me right out of it. They priced me out of it.
Price you right out of it.
God, bless.
Go get your, uh, expiration date.
holiday candy that's like all old from from last year yeah your July 4th banners don't look at the
expiration date that's that's what they should call that store got like pantine in there like like like
shampoo from 1980 don't don't the samples yeah look at this scope mouthwash from 1974
it's the dollar store don't look at the expiration day yeah don't worry about it don't you worry
about it call us call us dollar store I mean we just that's a brand new campaign for you right
there this is true
on the Radcast.
So, yeah, I'm looking over the other notes and don't really care for any of those articles.
Fair enough.
Anything else on the horizon for Joe?
Hey, it's new videos coming out, right?
New videos should be out today.
Chad and Dad Thanksgiving.
Chad and Dad Thanksgiving.
Is it as rude and crude as always?
Yeah.
Yeah, it is.
How would you describe the Rad, excuse me, the Chad and Dad characters, like for everyone listening?
They're basically, the easiest way to say it is they're,
former like ultra frat guys.
Yeah.
But now they're out of college and they're basically,
they're basically soulless,
uh,
substance addicted,
um,
assholes.
Basically,
basically,
they don't care about anything but,
but themselves and they don't even,
they don't even really care about each other that much.
We'll,
we'll put it that way.
Just watch one of them.
You have,
which you have,
certainly have.
If you're easily offended,
don't watch it.
Yeah.
You got to have thick skin.
You got to have a little bit of thick skin.
And you have to also remember that it's not actually, I don't, these opinions expressed are not those of, yeah, yeah.
It's a lot of stuff I wouldn't say in real life.
Yeah.
Character.
Character play, you know.
A little bit, a little bit of it.
So, Dad and Chad.
Chad and Dad.
Chad and Dad.
Chad and Dad.
Chad and Dad.
Chad and Dad.
Chad and Dad.
We're going to have a, we actually had the male Karen's.
I think you've seen that one.
Oh, yeah.
We did a Christmas one last year, and we put it out on TikTok, and it got about, oh, I don't even know, a million and a half views in like an hour, and then they took it down.
If you've seen it, yeah.
Touchy.
Touchy.
You can see why. It was very funny, though.
If anybody from TikTok's listening, just ignore this.
But we're going to try to put it back up this year.
Nice.
I would.
If you got a million and a half views.
I mean, it wasn't even done.
It was skyrocketing.
Yeah.
So we'll see how that goes.
it'll get taken down again probably yeah it was funny though it's a good it's one of my favorites
all very very intelligent humor like at first it seems very soft morric but then when you really
listen to everything that's being said you have to watch it like three times yeah think back because
you go you don't catch it's funny in the moment but then when you listen watch it the third time
you catch things you didn't hear you're like it's very intelligent humor that's my favorite
comments is from people that actually somebody from high school contacted me and
said, on the third time I watched this, I caught this joke and it's hilarious.
And I was like, it takes me three times when y'all come out, like, to catch all of the guy.
And I'm totally in the, like, target zone of like, this is funny shit.
You know what I mean?
But then I watch it and I'm laughing.
And then I'm bawling by the third time because, like, you just, you know.
You catch new stuff.
We're brilliant.
Yeah.
Essentially.
Essentially.
So.
Yeah.
And Bruce, Bruce Buffer, though.
Yeah.
Radcast.
It's coming up.
I know, two weeks.
It's never going to come out.
I know.
I keep saying that we've had all somebody to guess, but I do think he's two weeks away now.
I'm excited.
He was good.
He was really good.
I would have to imagine.
And we've been promoting it so much.
Every week.
We've talked about it.
I think we've talked about it for, I don't even know.
A little teaser.
I won't make it ready.
A little teaser.
Maybe later.
So everybody can find a Joey, Joe, and Sean on TikTok and it.
Instagram. So go check
out Chad and Dad
Holiday Edition. Yep. You won't
be able to avoid it. It's going to be everywhere. It is going to be
in your algorithm just from listening to this because
your Alexa apps listening to it. If you're
listening to this on your podcast, you're
Alexa, play Chad and Dad. Yes.
Just do that. Perfect. But yeah, it's
been a good week. Appreciate you, Joe. Appreciate
you. Always a good time. Happy
post Thanksgiving and happy Black Friday.
Happy National Listening
Day. Yes. I'm listening to
you, my friends. I can hear you. I can hear you. I see you. I acknowledge you. It's John,
John, well, that would be the seeing day, but I was going to say John Sina would hate that day.
Can't see me. John Sina. Oh, boy. Let's, you know what? Let's end it with John Sina.
We're going to end it with John Sine. I wish I had his music. I kind of like that.
That'd be a good outro music. Could you get him on the Radcast? Yes, I could. I think we should.
I would love that. My son would think I was the coolest person in the world. I've actually been
talking to a couple of pro wrestlers about coming on, like some pretty big names that I can't
mention.
We were actually in talks with Rick Flair's people.
Really?
Yeah.
He's very booked.
I think we can make it happen, but it might be like August of next year.
I saw him in a bar.
I saw him in Tigertown Tavern in Clemson when we were actually at Clemson.
Yeah.
He was sober.
No.
No.
He has to say sober now because he's a heart attack or something.
He probably's health issues.
Yeah.
He's gotten his ass kicked quite a bit.
He's chopped a lot of people with hand hurts all the time.
You should get his daughter on here, though.
Yeah.
Charlotte.
Charlotte Flair.
She's excellent.
Yes.
She's one of my favorites.
She's easy on the eyes, too.
Oh, boy.
You're not lying.
I know.
So we have to reach out.
Seena, if your people will get you on.
Call us.
Call us.
But I do think I want to get some wrestlers on.
I think they could be interesting.
And they're good actors and they ham it up.
Those guys, I mean, to be honest, and not to have the Radcast run long while we're talking about
WV.
but to be out there and you're on all the time.
Yes.
And you're also doing like flips and shit and getting punched.
They are very underappreciated for their entertainment value in all areas.
It's unbelievable.
Yes.
It's unbelievable.
Both athletically and then on the mic and just, you know, the ones that are especially good.
Yeah.
So.
Yeah.
I mean, it's crazy to not break character.
Especially if you accidentally get like punched in the face or something on for the real.
And they're just like, look.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But, yes.
So wrestling on the Redcast, we'll get you here.
It's radical.
We cover it.
Well, and it is.
So.
Cool.
