I was just thinking there's this whole episode of Mad Men where Don just like hanging out with these like vagabond hippies who are like, hey man, try this pill.
And he's like driving drunk with a tumbler, scotch in his hand, gone off some sort of prescription med.
And then there's a cut in the episode and he's just faced down and he's been robbed in a hotel room.
And I was like, there's a non-zero chance that's happened to Urban over the last three years.
We used to make things in this country.
Yeah.
Like pills.
Like pills.
Yeah.
Now you can buy them in Canada.
That's where I go.
But the problem is you steal Urban Meyer's wallet.
You're like, it's just Steve Adazio's business card.
That's all that's in here.
I didn't actually know that Buffalo Wild Wings gave out tokens.
Just picture and just pictures of Steve a black card.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's just for loyal service.
And it has a buffalo with a crown on it.
Wallet photos of Steve Adazio doing curls.
Yeah.
Who still uses Travelo's check?
He's got like $5,000 in Traveler's check.
Fucked up, man.
Mashed out from Zach Smith.
Yeah.
Come to the shutdown, full cat.
A lot of range on that one.
Really like good back swing, good, like, really loved it.
Yeah, it was an easy one.
It was like a Freddie couple swing, baby.
Oh, so smooth.
Why you got to get me all hot and bothered at the start of the show by mentioning Freddie couples?
Oh, dang.
Not called Freddy singles.
I'll tell you that.
His name is the most beautiful single sentence of all.
I am Spencer Hall.
You are listening to the only college football podcast.
joined us always by
Ryan, Jason,
Holly,
and on the ones into
Michael Serber.
He gets the last name.
Yeah.
No,
the rest of you are like paylay.
We're like mononyms.
Wait,
why can't server be Hulk?
You took a thing that was actually
a sign of respect for me
and then turned it very quickly
into it like I don't get a cool
Pele name.
Yes, we all get two
and server gets Usted.
Well, yeah, he'd be the goalie.
The goalie gets two names.
That's not what that's not really
by two.
So the thing I wanted to talk about
now that we've gotten down
is a really important stuff.
I believe it's brought to you by
Coors Light, Mountain Cold Refreshment
Made to Chill, but...
So they get a last name.
We'll call...
It's actually all one word.
We'll call Serber...
We'll call Serber...
We'll call Serber Migalito.
God damn, that goes.
Thank you.
Yeah.
You know, Miguelito.
Thank you.
El He'll have a...
How do you think it went the first time somebody suggested to somebody else who had an upset tummy?
Like, hey, you should have some sprite.
Like, what do you think the first time that conversation happened went like?
Because I got to tell you, sight unseen, if I wasn't feeling well, and a stranger was just like, drink soda, I think I would be pretty skeptical.
I'm going to guess it went great because the logic of it lines up.
Like, why do we like it now?
It's because, oh, because the bubbles will fix it.
Because it moves good.
When it's in your tummy, it moves around, and it'll rearrange everything.
Contained citrus.
The same logic was there when we first discovered water with bubbles in it.
Sure.
Like Cinderella's magic broom, but for your tummy.
Well, it feels like, like, frontier medicine logic that we still hold on to because why?
Because it's true.
That's why.
That's fair point.
If it was presented with no authority and from a person with no medical training, they would accept it.
if it came from a doctor
we would be instantly suspicious
because remember the
I have to translate this
The Sprite lobby controls doctors
Right
That's there's always been this
Fane and American thinking of flight
That's what they want
That's what they want you to do
The Spaniard they've planned
They give the doctors
$10,000 worth of Sprite travel
Then the doctor tells you to drink Sprat
Even though you don't need it
It's my favorite thing
Where somebody goes
Oh you think you know something I don't
Yeah probably
Probably brother
Every evidence is suggested
it.
Yeah.
Not only am I not taking sprat.
I'm never drinking Spratt.
Big 7-Up is pulling all the strings behind the scenes.
Now, Ginger Ale, though, that one's real.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's because it's got Eastern medicine.
Well, because, like, because ginger ale is beyond just one company.
You can't, you can't blame the Coca-Cola company or the Pepsi company.
That's right.
Yeah, like ISIS.
There's no central authority.
Yeah, there's no way to pin down ginger ale.
Now, you want to avoid seven up, though, because that gets a little too close to the grasping tentacles of
Dr. Pepper.
That's right.
Be part of our, be part of the, uh, Werner's sponsor, Noble Guerrilla War against hurt stummy.
Stummy hurt, apply Vernors.
That's actually true.
Brunner is gross.
Oh, God.
Go ahead.
Michigan.
Money Canada is going to be fucking.
I thought it was from Vermont.
Vernors?
I don't, I have only ever associated.
Oh, wait.
Am I missing up with Red Rock?
Which one's the red one?
Is Vermont not part of Michigan?
Vernors is not red.
I'm thinking about the red one, which is vile.
Vernors is from Detroit.
Yeah, Vernors is like kind of had Vernors.
Kind of pecanter, ginger ale.
Am I in a different kind of trouble now because I don't know what it was?
No, I think you're better.
I think, yeah, you'll just be corrected.
All right, all right, all right, not a problem.
I accept.
Do you think other, I mean, I know like soft drinks, like Pepsi's name comes from,
this will help you with some medical, like dyspepsia or whatever, right?
Oh my God, I never thought about that.
I'm pretty sure that's literally where the name comes from.
The first one was anthraxie.
They're like, no, no, no, no, too broad.
So what is Meloillowell is supposed to cure?
P.
So the two big sodas are named after cocaine and dyspepsia.
I think that's right.
I also.
And then there is literal Dr. Pepper.
mm-hmm the one who prescribed all of this yeah i thought pepsi was ancient greek for is pepsi okay
or for we're out of coke oh god that was even for me that was bad that's all right
Pepsi is okay honestly yes Pepsi was advertised to relieve dis Pepsi i didn't make that up
which is indigestion sorry Pepsi it got no museum how are we supposed to know server are you
gonna tell us some tales of cheer wine or you got something else well um Sprite was launched in
1961. The first major lemon lime soda was launched in 1929, which was 7-Up. But it's worth
mentioning that both Pepsi and Coca-Cola upon their launch were marketed as like magic elixirs
that would cure your ailments. So this conversation initially started, when do you think
the first time someone said, have some Sprite if you're sick? I think like the exact day that
Sprite launched someone was like, finally, I was sitting, that 7-Up ain't working no more.
I just think it's funny that the most unhealthy thing
that there is in the United States of America
actually was launched as medicine.
Sure, like cereal's the same way.
Like, cereal's all like, yeah.
Like, it was like four to five doctors prefer moral.
Yes, yes.
I mean, I think with soda.
They did, though, because doctors are coffee.
Do you all know about the weird origins of the Kellogg's company?
Yeah, it was an insane asylum, correct?
Okay.
It was so those people would stop masturbating.
Yep.
So it feels like the soda thing is about caffeine makes you feel a certain way,
therefore you're not sick anymore.
So let's just tell them it cures it.
I just, I want to get back to a place where our soda companies are also trying to cure our bodies.
Like I think we've gotten too far away from those origins.
And we need Coca-Cola and the Pepsi-Cola company and everybody,
like we need everybody to start being like, okay, this is.
we have new products to cure all your issues.
Ryan,
are you saying we need to bring back power-ups?
That's correct, yes.
Like pizza needs to restore your hit points again?
Yes, I need to be able to punch a trash can
and find a fully cooked turkey
that I can step on and then get full life.
And also there's maybe there's a machine gun in there too.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
I appreciate energy drinks for never taking this tack.
Energy drinks at no point.
at no point have energy drinks really fully embraced the this is also good for you they've always
they've always completely sidestepped that with bluster like so monster has it got any other
benefits is it going to make me like smart and they're like it's monster mental boost what does it do it
goes it pushes your heart to its limits we're not of course talking about the mountain dew line
of energy drinks no because that does provide mental boost and use and increase the real
it extended my hit points beyond the normal you have the normal red life meter it gave me an additional gold life meter yeah and we're also not talking about gatorade fast switch which you can outrun anyone with which that doubled my mana yeah yeah right didn't you have a
didn't you have a holiday tale about a gatorade fast switch over thanksgiving uh we brought uh Gatorade sent us some fast twitch that i had not gotten around to opening yet and my wife is
She was in tech for the Christmas show they're doing at her theater company.
So she brought it in.
And those theater nerds, they fucking loved Gatorade Fast Wits.
They were like, please give us more of this.
Where is more?
We need this.
Sports dorks, drama dorks, Gatorade Fast Witches, Universal.
It's for all.
It's for all.
I just keep hearing the street fighter theme music every time you talk about people opening a can of faster.
She's like, Oliver, Oliver.
I'm going fast, fagin.
Mm-hmm.
yeah energy drinks no such promises like 100% jolt cola no no lies told surge oh man yeah well you know
remember like the the old timey christmas specials that were all sponsored by one thing which is how
we ran into the craft nightmare of last year um that we didn't finish because everybody involved got
sick uh probably not from the craft but what if we had i'm trying to imagine like a mountain do
sponsored televised production of
a Christmas carol. That seems
entirely. It is where I'm trying to get.
I'm open to anything. Like
SunKist PM, like the orange soda
that helps you sleep. Moonkest.
Moon Kist. God,
that's good. These are free
ideas. Soda companies use them.

Anyway, Spencer wanted to talk about the playoff.
I wanted to talk about this quote.
The dog is trying to stop him, and I appreciate that.
I am trying to make that dog quiet with my mind.
Hold on, let's watch this go.
Professor X of dogs.
Ready, begin.
It's failing miserably.
The dog's telepathic powers are too great.
Get out of there.
That raises a good question.
Could Professor X read animal minds?
Isn't it only mutants?
I don't, is it out, is it?
No, he can, in some versions, he can read regular.
It just depends who's writing it, yeah.
But like, could he look at a squirrel and just hear it go,
DUR!
No, squirrels have very deep thoughts.
Like, did you think that all squirrels are going around like Daryl?
Just like, oh,
Squirrel.
Jump!
Run, jump!
When a squirrel sees a street, it says,
I'm going to run 99% of the way across the street and then run back.
back and when I'm going to see how close I can get to making a car hit me.
Because I'm exploring the thin line between life and death that we all dance upon all day.
I'm a squirrel.
I'm collecting research on this. You'll see.
I wanted to cover this, which was from the piece about how the playoff committee made up its mind not to admit Florida State.
This is excerpted by Roger Sherman.
I think that's...
Oh, yeah, we should probably...
If you get all your news from the full cast
and the last episode you heard was us saying,
they're definitely going to keep Florida State in.
They didn't do that.
Just so you know.
So, Bob Stoops has left Oklahoma.
Yep.
And the 2023 playoff field does not include Florida State.
Spencer, are you referring to Heather Dennis to this post?
Yes. Yes.
Roger cut this piece and it's pretty great.
it wasn't until the ACC championship game
began to unfold though
that the members' opinions began to truly take shape
the group grew concerned
as it watched the Null's struggle
to get a first down in the first half
I love several different angles on this
one
congratulations to Louisville on playing
such a disgusting game that you knocked the other team
out of the playoff and without winning
that's amazing
I love that Jack Plummer
and the collective
wretch reflex that was Louisville
football in that game
played such a putrid game
that they managed to poison
even the viable playoff contender
in that same game
congratulations that is
that's all you want to do if you can't win the game
ruin the prospects
of the opponent
on a permanent basis
so well done
that's not your fault
by the way. That's the committee
the committee's like sudden
freestyle vibes kind of based approach
kicking in at exactly the
wrong time for Florida State.
But Florida State, roll to
avoid Louisville's exploding corpse.
Oh, you got three.
You're covered
in Louisville poison now.
You're covered
in pizza sauce.
Like was there, like if Louisville
hadn't gotten six points, are we good?
Like six, how do you keep out a team that
one that shut out their final top 20 opponent like or if florist it had gotten to 30 points are we good
have a curly a on the helmet i there's gotta be a number that's like beyond the point at which even
they could push the argument right i think you're right yes there there does have to be it couldn't
have just been no matter what all of this like ignores that floristate had to do this with their
third stringer like on very little prep yes like it was not yeah um
I think, and they haven't said this, and none of them will, but I think a lot of this came down to, yes, we know we have Louisville in the top 20.
We don't think Louisville is good.
We don't think Louisville is good.
Like, we have to do this because we recognize, like, that their record requires a certain level of respect and whatever.
But I think based on.
Oh, does it, right?
I said a certain level.
I said a certain, listen, listen, this.
is the same committee that was like wise liberty the top g5 team they have they have literally
the worst they had literally the worst strength of schedule in the nation and the committee's like
well winning matters a lot what do you guys so crazy all right one member of the committee just
piping up like i'm just trying to bring back the apocalypse by endorsing good christian soldiers did i say
that out loud fuck fuck all right spencer please i'm sorry you were that is the lighting things yeah see
the southern Methodist no less
there's literally by accent closer
to Jesus.
Those Yankees.
Those Richmond, north of Richmond
in
Pittsburgh, Virginia.
But they're cookies!
I don't know where Lynchburg is
in relation to Richmond,
but it's north now.
The funniest thing would be if you went back
in time and Jesus and all the
apostles had Baltimore accents, right?
Yeah.
Like that would be the funniest,
the funniest thing you could determine.
I wouldn't betray you.
oh you will
I love that Louisville managed to do that
I also love that after a decade of setting up this play action
where I anticipated the committee doing the conspiratorial thing
and making the decision for television and ratings and tickets
and trying to set up the best possible matchups
even if the actual regular season records
didn't reflect that
that they waited this long to do the rug pull.
They waited until the final year
before playoff expansion to go ahead
and sink the hook deep friends.
That's play calling.
That's well done.
That is bureaucratic.
That is bureaucratic load shifting
on a degree to which you can only
applaud the audacity and skill involved
because, and I had this,
this is like talking about Richard Johnson,
talking about this with Richard Johnson is primarily like my I was proven wrong and then not because I kept every time this came around every year Richard and I would talk and Richard would go dude they can only do so many things and I would go no no no I don't trust this institution and the institution would do the anodyne boring kind of responsible thing by actually following their own rules and only in their final year did they finally rip off the mask and just like anyone sitting like you know 48 beers deep at the bar go
these guys look like ass don't put them in based on like
fs you can't get the big hit yeah yeah the fs u can't get the big hit i don't think they're clutch
the fucked up thing is this was the first year that they actually did follow their rules
like the first nine editions of this um they did not do best team 2015 Ohio state was a better
team than 2015 Michigan state but they followed head to head and standings and things of
that you know things that normal sports give a shit things that people care
2018, Georgia.
Things that should matter.
2018, Georgia was one of the four best teams.
2022, Alabama was a better team than 2022 C.TCU.
But all along, they followed most deserving.
They said, we picked best.
No, they picked most deserving.
Now, all of a sudden, in year 10, they go with quote fingers best instead of most deserving
and pretend this is what they've done all along, right?
And that to me is the second craziest part of the whole thing,
is and in the ESPN post that that Roger cited there's even like quoting an ex-committee
and an anonymous ex-committee member who's basically like yeah they kind of lost the plot here
which is like you know the whole best thing was lip service all along it was most deserving is
what people want out of a playoff best is what you want out of bowl games bowl games you want
it would be cool if this team played that team most deserving is what you want in a tournament
if you took 13 people with extremely limited understanding of college football you just
sort of laid out like the basic parameters and like here's sort of the relative rankings of
the conferences and the saturn whatever they're definitely putting florida state in right
like i don't yeah i i think this is in my head the best way i have been able to wrangle it
is this is an example of, and I do this shit all the time in a million ways, this is way
overthinking a thing. Like they took something that should have been relatively simple and they just
sort of galaxy brained it to a conclusion that is, that bears some logical, that has some logical
weight to it, but is also just like so overwrought. So, so, so overwrought.
it's it's the flawed premise of we want four best teams that's not what anyone wants but all this time they managed to ignore that and put together a decent playoff this time all of a sudden somehow the best thing clogged their brains and that's what they went with and dude yeah and it ended up the effect of it was their first ever rug pull like that part's absolutely true um the effect of it was we had thought that this goofy ass institution was going to you know through it all despite it all give us a good play
a fair playoff every year and for the first time they followed the letter of their own law and
it gave us the worst playoff yet um which to me the premise is flawed from the very beginning but it
never mattered and now it matters because best is first of all it's completely subjective um secondly
bama's not one of the four best to this point they could win at all they could win at all but the power
rankings composite bama is number five ohio state should be in if you actually want the four best teams
Like Vegas would favor Ohio State over Alabama, according to the power rankings.
So if we're about it, then we're about it.
Put Ohio State in.
I cannot stand for that.
Not even theoretically speaking.
Also, they did just lose their quarterback, by the way.
That's why.
Oh, shit.
Yeah, they can't go now.
So what does the committee do?
What does the committee do if a quarterback of a playoff team opts out?
Just opts out in transfers.
Nope, nope.
Get them out of here. Send someone else in.
The other thing, and my boss brought this up, there's really no reason because all this is made up anyway.
Like, the most ball and thing the playoff could have done would say, like, okay, we've just decided to have a playing game.
Like, Alabama, Florida State, in a week you are meeting in the Jerry Dome, and you're going to play for the fourth spot.
And that's it.
that's just what we're going to do and nobody would have to go like crawl up their own ass about
like but what about the precedent precedent doesn't matter we're about to do 12 teams like just just
i i i think there are there's no i can't find any flaw with that like yeah i would have pissed
off georgia fans and yeah what a pissed off ohio state of fans that's fine like that's the other
part is i see a lot of people saying like well thank god we're about to move to 12 teams and
we're not going to have to deal with this anymore we're not going to have to deal with this specific
situation anymore. But the idea, and I have a colleague writing about this, the idea that we're
going to expand the playoff field to now include two loss teams and sometimes three lost teams,
and it's going to be less divisive when there are more two loss and three loss teams. And now you
get into the weird questions of like before you could take a group of five team and say like,
if you have a loss, you're out. Like one loss is all it takes. Sometimes even going undefeated doesn't
matter. But now we are going to have a weird time where it's like, is this one lost G5 team better
than this three lost big 10 team? That's an argument we're going to have at some point. It's going
to get, it's not going to get less contentious. It's going to get way more contentious. It'll be
at a slightly lower level. But if you look at the teams right now that are in that like 11 to 15 range,
it's like Oklahoma and Penn State and Ole Miss and LSU, it's not like, oh good, we've gotten
away from the fan bases that'll be really mad.
If we leave it out,
tears straight into them.
Yeah, and like, so you're telling me we're going to have a system where, you know,
some year we'll have five Big Ten teams or five SEC teams or both.
And everyone's going to feel great about that.
Like, we're expanding it to make sure we can get some nine and three Auburn team in there
and everyone thinks that's awesome.
And like the other thing is the top four still gets like buys.
Yes.
Like, it's still a huge benefit to rank in the top four.
It's still a big deal.
and you get home field advantage.
Yes, there's a bunch that goes into it.
Hey, I know what we're not going to see.
We're not going to see a two-lossed ACC team in there because
don't try to, don't try to exchange those ACC bucks.
No, that currency is no good here anymore.
If we can wave off an undefeated ACC team,
holy hell, if you lost two games in the ACC,
that's like four games in the Big Ten of the SEC.
We're not even going to pay attention to it.
Like, is Iowa getting into 12-team playoff this year?
This year?
Yeah.
What are they ranked like?
I would say in our vibes-based economy that we have now, no.
I think they would have watched the Big Ten championship game, and they would have done the same thing with Louisville and Florida State and gone, we can't let this happen.
So they ranked 17th.
Is this like if they had lost one fewer game or whatever?
I guess like, yeah, well, to me the thing would be like, you're going to get a bunch of these weird arguments with conference championship losers where it's like they only have that.
that second or third loss because they made the conference championship game.
Now you're punishing teams for doing well, which is going to be insane.
Like, I don't know.
I get why Florida state fans are mad and I don't think they're wrong to be.
And at the same time, like, nothing about this sport has ever been built towards identifying a national champion.
And it never will be for the simple fact that there's 130 fucking teams and they only play 12 games.
And also to win the Super Bowl, you have.
have to win what a minimum of 20 games right 17 regular season you have to play a minimum of 20
games you got to play 17 regular season games divisional conference championship Super Bowl
that's for a league that has like 20% as as many franchises and has salary caps and has
you know the draft and a bunch of ways to build equity between them and controls all the scheduling
like everything about this sport is built so that you just get to the end of the year and you're like
I don't know, let's fight about it.
We have other college sports with even more teams that manage to figure out a national champion in an orderly way.
I just,
orderly is never going to fit college football.
It's not the history.
And I don't know, like, I don't know really the obsession with moving towards.
Well, I know it makes a lot of money.
But like, we just need to go back.
Fuck the playoff.
I've been saying it for a few years, but the playoff is stupid and bad.
No one will ever listen to me.
It's fine.
Go back to the bowl season and add a plus one after bowl season.
Let's go even further.
They're back.
One bowl?
Let's move in further back.
No,
let's go back to the days when the AP and the coaches poll
decided who won the national title.
And the final vote happened before bowl season.
So you can win the national title and then go fart away your ball game.
The balls are just for the Duke Mayo dump after and.
And the Pop-Tart champ.
That's it.
It's going to be so horrifying watching this mascot with eyes come out get devoured
as it's standing there on the field.
players are
and now
now we're going to go
make Florida State play Georgia
the reason they're in
like I understand that there's a decent chance
Florida State might have got passed over
for Texas even if Georgia had one
but I don't know if that's the case
or not I do know that because Georgia
lost to Alabama
Bama got in and Florida State didn't
and now Florida State has to go play
this team that basically
fucked up their whole season
yeah I mean I think if Georgia had won
the argument that FSU shouldn't be in would have been a lot harder to make.
I realized it was already about as hard as possibly could be.
But at that point, like, Texas is valued.
Yeah.
Like, to me, this isn't a consolation compromise kind of thing.
This is FSU, you are very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very.
briefly, somehow, against all odds, America's team.
No one ever, ever would have ever imagined this happening, but you are the country.
And then Rick Scott showed up.
And then Ron DeSantis showed up.
I love, I love that.
I love politicians showing up.
Donald Trump is tweeting about the first ever power five team to be left out of the
playoff.
So close, big dogs.
So close.
Oh, yeah.
Like dogs to the kitchen when they hear somebody in there like,
A free hamburger for me?
Rick Scott has opinions.
Like, dog, go to jail.
Go to jail.
My thing is like, so FSU, Georgia, FSU, you beat Georgia.
You're a two touchdown underdog.
Got it.
We see that every year.
Every year there's numerous multiple touchdown upsets.
FSU upsets Georgia.
There's this weird thing where it's like, maybe they should claim a title.
A fucking course they should claim a title.
Like, do you know how many more titles?
claims college football history should have i'm not joking like yes they should claim a title
2017 UCF was right if 2023 fSU wants to win at all and then apologize to 2017 UCF on the way to
claiming a 2023 title do it unless georgia fucks it up for unless georgia wins is that what you're
saying yeah yeah well yeah if georgia if georgia if georgia wins then you didn't have an you know
then fine okay and then georgia's deprived florida state of two shots you have to beat georgia if you
Georgia, you had better put a 23 on your stadium.
If that happens, by the way, it will be because they played covered two.
If you did not see this, one reason that Alabama managed to throttle the Georgia offense
was because they came in with a brilliant plan to play, and let's get a little bit into the weeds here.
They were going to play an odd front, and they were going to have all these big complex ideas
in order to keep Georgia from running the ball, but also keep men in coverage.
and after the first series,
Nick Save and Trash the entire game plan for
Why don't you guys play even up front
and play split safeties?
That's what they did.
The adjustment happened after a drive,
a single drive,
and that was enough to break the mind of Mike Bobo.
They had no solution for it.
None.
Nick said,
it's great in the post game.
Nick goes,
I just told them to just do this.
We'll get pressure with four.
And I don't know.
It'll have a middle work.
It was absolutely brilliant.
If you want to know why the 72 year old coach managed to sneak it in the playoff,
it's because he was like, well, we're idiots.
We've got big ideas.
Stop.
Just let the players play.
Why don't you guys go out there and cover two and just knock some heads?
And it worked.
It 100% worked.
Holly, you don't have to answer this.
And maybe we're saving her for 40 for 40.
Do you have feelings about being drawn against Iowa in a bowl game this year?
It kind of, yeah?
Is it off character if I say they're good?
Okay.
That's fine.
Like, I, well, we're...
I'm not saying Iowa's bad.
I'm more saying, like, I think the thing that everyone...
Even people who think Iowa's good, nothing about playing Iowa looks fun.
No, but the last meeting between the two of them shows that it can be done.
You know, this is, this, this tends to be, it's kind of funny for all the, for all the, for all the humming and screaming that we do about this program, it kind of feels like we only ever played Michigan, Penn State, or Iowa in the postseason last year's delightful result, notwithstanding.
But I, I kind of want to see it with, with about a month to get healthy.
I'm, I'm interested to see how that, that poor bemoaned offensive front and our little three-hheaded running back holds up against, you know, we got, we got irresistible force from the SEC and a movable object from the Big Ten.
Like, I, it feels kind of classic to me. I like this matchup, which is a boring answer.
No, I think that's a very healthy answer. I just didn't know. I just wanted us. That's all.
No, and I didn't, I didn't have to struggle to get there anyway. It's like, well, we've got, you know, this season didn't go as a plan.
They have not been great on the road, but one of the biggest problems they've had has been health.
Well, let's see what we could do to eliminate that problem.
And then, you know, and then let's see what happens.
I have no clue a month out, again, mostly based on health, what I think about their chances.
But I, if I had a pick of matchups, I might have, I might have picked this one myself.
Um, then also, you know, shout out to FCS sports.
Uh, the Florida sister sports team just runs like, they run great games.
Like they're really fun to go to.
So I did like, um, and I'm sorry again.
This is the team that sent a charcutory board to Jason last year when he made fun of them.
Shout out to our buddy Matt and comms.
Oh, that what a ridiculous bowl.
Oh, I hope they don't do that again.
Please, please don't send Jason.
It was wonderful.
More cheese.
It's too powerful.
I did like, I did like Bo Wallace's reaction to Old Miss getting put in the peach bowl again.
Which was the site of, of course, there.
Was that the 2014?
16?
2014 T.
It was the 2014, yeah, because it was the TCU that got jumped by Ohio State and just put an absolute mollywapen.
When Ohio State had a third string quarterback.
that did happen yeah but they beat the shit out of wisconsin that's the important thing
the brief committee said that's fine everybody's uh everybody's really excited about this ls uisconsin
thing and i think everybody's forgetting that this happened fairly recently in the regular
season they play two neutral site games right there's the i mean there's a culture clash element
of it i think the other thing there is this is this and iowa tennessee are the the
games closest to the game everyone why are there balloons again because you did
oh god keeps giving me balloons is that what it is it's doing AI on me that's fucked up yeah
that's fucked yeah but it only works for you for some reason wow interesting
useful I guess it knows about your book I held I have so much power now so I held up
two fingers folks because the the two games that people wanted the two teams of people
want to play each other were Iowa and LSU who are completely opposite the
most opposite teams all offense no defense all defense no offense that's if jaden daniels plays um
the closest facsimiles we got this year are probably iowa tennessee and um wisconsin lSU not as
as it at as extreme but still in spirit somewhat similar yeah i wasn't really considering the
whole i was speaking more as an alum than as a considering the whole slate when i said i like to
match up like i listen man there was a minute there where i thought we were
going to the music city and I was going to have to crawl into something.
Don't do that.
I'm just,
listen, just put us in Florida on a mid,
do you know how I talk at the beginning of the year about how I'm,
I'm not comfortable unless Tennessee is somewhere between like 19 and 23.
And anything else is either way too high.
Don't look at us or disrespect.
Do you know where Tennessee finished the season?
21, maybe?
21 and headed to a.
respectable and respectable only
to your bowl in Florida.
Like, this is my comfort zone.
Nothing can hurt us in here.
This is like sensory deprivation tank, Tennessee.
Does that change at all depending on the out?
Like, if Iowa just absolutely Stonewalls, Tennessee,
does that change anything for you?
Or is it just like, yeah, that's what Iowa does?
I mean, I'd be mad, but, you know, I've been mad before.
You'll be mad again.
And it has absolutely no outcome on what this program does.
See, I don't have to be mad because Florida's not going to a bowl game.
Oh, I was going to ask about how your feelings on.
I just, I just get to just be super chill, totally relaxing.
People, a few people, as I was gloating in Georgia's loss, tried to bring this up.
Like, where's Florida going to a bowl game?
Like, that hurt you?
Holy shit.
Florida went to a bowl game last year and got their asses kicked by Oregon State as the fan base
fucking fought each other online over whether they should kick a field goal near the end of the game
to keep their stupid scoring in every game streak alive. I don't want to go back to that.
I'm not excited to relive that. It's fine to miss a bowl game. I'm not fucking with you. I can't
remember. Did they kick that field goal? They did. And the streak lives. And Oregon State beat them like
37 to 3. Most consistent offense in the hall of college football. That's right. That's right.
nobody can touch us anymore so yeah my favorite rankings thing do you know the most
overrated team in the country uh compared to the like computer composite that would
be it liberty no uh the the uh let's see i think they're actually believe it or not ranked somewhat
fairly shit yeah the most overall ranking is not high they just got the highest they just got
the g5 spot but yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Wait, I choose not to believe that, there.
Okay.
Yes, you're right.
Yeah, you're allowed to say that.
Cool.
NC State is number 18 in the playoff rankings.
NC State is number 26 in the composite, ahead of number 10th, Tennessee.
That's that, they're coasting off Dave Doran's virility on the mic.
The fucking CW champs, I will never besmirch.
They're a team of the year for me, but somehow the committee took a,
shine to this NC State team that when you drill down into the numbers it's a little dubious
which makes it even more amazing that FSU got left out because apparently the committee loves
the ACC oh no no no no no no FSU got left out because they dodged NC State if only they had
proven themselves against the wolf pack maybe we would believe in them but instead they played
shitty teams like Clemson and Miami and LSU yeah
So FSU was scared to go in the CW, and that's what did him in.
I think we should also talk about, and I think this is big picture enough that it won't overlap.
I did like, there was a brief moment during bowl selection, the latter part of the day in bowl selection.
After the playoffs announced, and you're starting to hear about who's going to the non-playoff Bulls,
where none of the ACC games had been announced.
And I think it was Brett McMurphy that was like, yeah, they haven't even had a conference call yet to have the
discussion. I can confirm from talking with bull personnel that as of like 4.30 on Sunday afternoon,
there were bulls that had not heard from the ACC at all. So there was a brief window where my
troublesome brain was like, what if they're all banding together and boycotting bull season?
What if the ACC is just not going to show up for bull games? I was actually hoping the infighting
would go on for so long, and it was infighting that delayed it because nobody wanted to drop down a spot.
No, they didn't actually, they didn't actually think that Florida State was going to get screwed like this and they didn't have a backup plan. Nobody wanted to drop down a spot. You can guess who was the loudest and shrillist about this. But what I was really hoping would happen was that this would last for so long that the bowls would just move on to their next conference ties.
Oh, sure. Yeah, I mean, like, so this is the year already where there weren't enough six win teams. That's how we got JMU and Jacksonville State. And that's why five and seven Minnesota is playing in a bowl game. So not all.
only when they have had to go to their other ties, they would have had to start calling five
win teams. Florida might have made a bowl game in the Florida in the Pop-Tarts bowl.
My favorite thing about this is during all this afternoon of ACCC chaos where they're all
reacting to the FSU snub. Stuart Mandel did a post on this with like all the all the ACC bowl
people. And at one point they all won to Notre Dame. No surprise. So how they decided to resolve
this was they all wrote down their names, handed them to an attorney, the attorney put them in a
hat, and the attorney pulled one out of the hat. And that is where in the name is Pricewaterhouse
Cooper's. And I'm like, this is how college football is meant to work. This is college football.
This is stupid. Computers are pretty good. Committees are fucking stupid. This is perfect.
Like, that is the bowl selection show I would watch. Where you just like, we're like,
all right, it's hat time, people. Let's let's see what hat the fucking roll.
Laya Quest Bowl has brought it.
I would like to see it decided not by feats of strength, but by field day activities, like
running with an egg and a spoon.
Sure.
Three-legged race.
And the university.
Yeah, yeah, that's good.
Like, so both seasons, we have these like stupid little gimmick activities that happen, right?
And they've tried to.
Yeah, put this at halftime instead of the Dr. Pepper challenge in college to be free.
Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
We'll do this on Sunday. Do the shit on Sunday.
Do the Chick-Filly milkshake contest on Sunday, and that's how you get into the Peach Bowl.
The best two teams go to the Peach Bowl.
Dabo's Bible bongers.
Dabo, I challenge you to a Bible sword drill while we're at it.
You're going down, brother.
You're going down.
I don't care how much you study up.
I'm going to take your spot in the Pop Tarts Bowl or whatever.
You want to talk about the Big Ten's return to greatness, by the way.
Make it milkshake dependent?
Oh, hell yeah.
They want quiz chugging.
They want Quiz Bowl.
Big Ten is definitely, definitely wants quiz bowl.
No, they say they want Quiz Bowl.
But then in the dark of night, when things become critical, they're like,
I gotta go back to the old me
It's milk shake band
It's like chess boxing
It's like Big Ten Custard trivia
Oh my God
Jason
You have to file the copyright
For that right now
Can we can we
Floyd I know you're on here
Can we get the URL for custom
The category is taxonomy
And I will be answering questions
Of those taxonomy
After taking 14 shots of custard
We're going to delete the
Playoff, all right.
How you get into the Rose Bowl is this, the nation's number one
Custard trivia team versus like the nation's number one like
environmental, um, uh, Bitcoin scam team.
That's your Pactual Champ.
Okay.
I like the heads up.
Finally a path for Florida State.
Like, uh, eco-crypto, whatever that means.
That's your Pactualt champ.
It's open to interpretation.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And that's your Rose Bowl.
That's just, that's beautiful.
beautiful. That's as beautiful as the Rose Bowl itself.
So then your sugar bowl, we're going to need.
So then your sugar bowl, we need like an SEC, an SEC version of this.
LSU.
LSU. That's just LSU out here.
Oh, I see what you're saying.
The SEC version of this, I think, is probably some sort of illegal animal hunting.
Okay.
Rattlesnake rodeo.
Yeah, that would work.
So then the Big 12 is a different rodeo.
that's a rodeo but with people that's the most dangerous game people rodeo okay yeah this is so easy
this is so easy and then everything else let's hunt brent your mark for sport that's what they do
honestly at this point i think i think big 12 would be like if it gets eyeballs we'll do absolutely
welcome to our game welcome to our jolly postseason game let's hunt and kill brent your mark
let's get running the big 12 who knows the most famous person you con
Nellie, The Undertaker, if you're famous, we'll put bathing ape.
Anyone.
We'll put any logo on the field if people have heard of it.
I look like you've been somewhere, man.
Half time at the Big 12th Championship is a no-holds-barred fight between two eight-year-olds fucking crazy.
But the numbers, the numbers back and off.
That's the Dr. Pepper Toss is. That's the Dr. Pepper Toss taking one step further.
I'm just going to tell those people, they're the chain smokers.
Are those two eight-year-old?
No, they're the chain smokers.
We are literally never getting.
any older. Isn't that them? Yeah.
I worked at MTV for like
almost two years and I still have never heard a song
of theirs. I am so proud of me.
Yeah, nor could identify them in a lineup.
No, I have no idea who they are or how many of them there are.
Aren't they the ones who are never getting older?
Isn't that the song? I don't know what that is. I don't know either.
Yeah.
Sorry.
It's nice in here.
Sorry, Jason and I are just more in touch with the youth of 2011.
Yes, we're in touch with songs.
Oh.
from 10 years ago by people who are now like
pushing 35 probably
Speaking of which
Of why
Spencer and Jason are more in touch with the youth
Spencer can I get a quick podcast business
Podcast business
Podcast business
What's that business?
Podcast business
It's a business
Let's talk about God
He's not real but he's got a book and it's coming up
I don't think that's what
All right that's fine
He's got a book and it's coming out.
Can I tell you about the book?
God has got a book coming out and it came through Jason.
That's already out.
It's called the Holy Bible, Spencer.
You and I are going to sit down and read it together.
Hey, hey, let's get coffee and I'll read the Bible to you.
Man, not at gunpoint.
Not like, seriously.
I thought if somebody was like, you got to read this at gunpoint, I'd be like, pull that trigger, brother.
This has so many words in it.
If I gave you a dollar, if I gave you a dollar, if I gave you a dollar,
for every page of the Bible you read
in a 24-hour
time span. How many
how many dollars in my pay?
I got you. I got you. I got you.
I got you. I got you. I will pick the pages for you.
I'll find you good shit. Okay.
Unfair. This is cheating.
You can't choose your own adventure. The Bible.
I'll find you the hottest shit.
There's a bunch of verses about deer.
Yeah. No.
There's so much murders.
Murder, monsters,
explosions, naked ladies. It's got it all, man.
But I'd be literally doing anything else for zero dollars.
that is that is the option i will take that's the opportunity cost of spencer reading that is when you're
like if i gave you a dollar for my brother that's not even close for the right price i think that
this thing uh spencer's saying um money is the root of all evil therefore yeah this is uh you're
yeah that's right yeah he's far too pious to accept your terms yes i am going to be like most christians
and i ain't reading that it's a podcast business like 10 minutes a podcast
somebody said the word Warhammer
and that reminded me
that we've had our Spotify
wrapped as a show
to go check out
and I have some stats here courtesy of Ryan
that may surprise you
here at home
I know that they certainly
surprised Ryan and me
when we were pulling them
so here we go
the top episode
of the shutdown fullcast
on
Spotify in
2023 was
every Warhammer
40K faction as a college football team.
Yes.
Yes. Here's where it gets weird.
I feel like this
had to be a mistake, but this is what it
says on the website.
It was streamed 999%
more than your average episode.
That's what it says.
Are we a Warhammer podcast now?
30% of your listeners.
discovered you in 2023.
I'm assuming they're all in Warhammer.
Our podcast was shared
via text message
37% of the time because all of y'all
are dads. We appreciate that.
Thank you to the 2% of you
on WhatsApp. Shout out Infosec, Twitter.
Our podcast grew 25%
in followers
this year
on Spotify, which is very nice.
and 2,748 of you had us as their top podcast.
7,568 of you had us in our top five.
9,962 of you had us in their top 10.
So we're not making the playoff.
Oh, yeah, I didn't think about that.
That's fine.
I wouldn't trade that.
If it meant trading the Warhammer episode, I wouldn't do it.
I'm just going to injure several other cast members of other podcasts so that we get it.
That's true.
Yeah, and then we could make a true crime podcast out of it.
So I like the only thing this is going to do is reinforce Spencer's Warhammer habit.
Oh, no.
Yeah, that wouldn't have happened anyway, Ryan.
Yeah, he was almost out the game, but, oh, man.
It's for business.
This is a business expense.
Yeah.
I'm expensing this $100 toy
That I have to put together myself
Yeah
It's a good pivot for you, I think
Thank you, thank you
It certainly goes with the beard and lack of social skills
This box of skulls
There's 340 skulls in it
Box of skulls look at that
300 you haven't seen the box of skulls
Box of skulls yeah we got some skulls
What do you buy a box? What do you
Are the skulls decorative like?
Yeah I mean kind of yeah they
They serve absolutely no in-game purpose.
It's just like, this toy isn't metal enough.
It needs skulls.
I want to, I ask this question without judgment.
Spencer, how many games of Warhammer have you played this year?
Six, I think.
Okay.
That's higher than I thought.
Yeah.
It's higher than last year.
I thought you were only in it for the painting and the skulls.
No, I've managed.
The boys and I have a way of playing, so we end up doing it.
And I have played a game with Jason.
So I think we played twice this year.
I've moved my position on this since last year, by the way.
If you are just in this for the painting and the dolls,
oh, that's fine.
Yeah, I think that's fine.
That's an art,
you know,
that's an artistic hobby.
Yeah.
Yeah,
I don't have a problem with it.
I'm just purely out of curiosity.
I have a few just last year and I have since,
I have since shifted in tone.
Yeah.
Also, like,
playing a game with other people involves,
like getting your schedule in order and, like,
interacting with other people.
and sometimes Spencer just want to paint the big war machine.
Sometimes you just want to, listen,
sometimes you just want to spend some time with a friend.
And you paint the giant yellow war machine.
Makes time for a friend today.
But yeah, or you show up at a shop to play a stranger
and they turn out to be absolutely terrified.
The love of your life.
That's right.
You play orcs too?
This isn't a game where you, this is a game where you,
you like take a deck of cards.
This isn't a game where you take a board.
This is a game where you need a big box of all your stuff.
Yeah.
Big box files.
I have a roadie for my Warhammer cake.
I have all miners.
But how do you carry them?
All miners stored in a Zaps, chips carton that's like, you know,
the kind that would show up to a retail store.
I mean, it's got like Florida Lee and like Catholic stuff on it.
So like, my army's the nuns, it fits fine.
I have a special German case with removable metal shelves, and I've magnetized the bottom of all of mine so that I can carry them in this giant backpack.
I want you to know one of the one of the most haunting things I've ever heard you say is I have a special German case.
Like I don't, full of, oh my God.
You didn't make it as far as.
I've magnetized the bottom.
Didn't move the, didn't move the dial.
It didn't help.
It didn't help.
But I think my brain went into terror mode.
You already over the precipice.
Yeah, I was, I was already like, oh, God, it's time to call the police.
Spencer, I just like, after you got the rest of it out, though, I've never looked up to you more than right now.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I'm glad some of you appreciate passion.
I like that to take listeners and readers behind the scene a little bit here, frequently on this show, we assemble to record.
And let's say Spencer usually is like, I cannot find my equipment.
the thing we use to make this show for which we are paid money and with for to to holly's point
uh that we are trying to get more and more people to listen to not necessarily spencer's monster
toys however they go in the secure case where he knows where they are in all time the recording
equipment throw in an old pizza box who fucking cares but the monsters they must be protected
That's just kind of monster
Well, the recording equipment hasn't been
scrupulously diligently hand-painted
to artistic perfection.
I'd be fine if he did that.
Yeah, maybe we should look into that.
Yeah.
Oh, shit.
Can we also point out again
that this whole journey started,
I think, year before last,
with a joke about how Spencer and Jason going,
hey, yeah, we're going to get really into Warhammer this year.
Ha-ha.
And then they were like, oh, shit, we got really into Warhammer.
We worked ourselves.
into a shoot here yeah we we did this this uh like either spencer or jason was like
ha ha let's get really into warhammer in the off season and then i forget which one of you
pulled the trigger first but i think it was me spencer started buying shit first i know that
yeah i was the one who started wasting money on it i mean invested in my house
oh yeah jason i remember this now jason was too slow so spencer bought shit for jason when he
wasn't succumbing fast enough that's right i was i was like i was like should i go with the nun
army or the alien army or uh or the robot army and spender decided for me and it was the right
i think the nun army really goes nicely with the book that you wrote it really does i like the i like
the lisa frank uh color ways too that you've got going there yes Lisa frank um nuns in space hell
is the vibe yes it's a good vibe we each everybody ends up where they're supposed to end up
i just can't help the thinking like what are we what are we going to joke ourselves into like
what have we already joked ourselves into for next year that we don't know about yet?
Hmm.
Let's see.
Florida State sympathy.
That's my first suggestion.
I didn't even make it to the end of the month.
I'm good.
That's done.
Like, yep, got a bad deal.
Once Rick Scott was on board, it's like, oh, yeah.
Now that Ron DeSantis has set aside a million dollars in the Florida budget,
to sue the NCAA.
I am feeling that's how you know.
That is a real thing.
That is a real thing.
It is not real.
Because like, go Google this.
Go Google.
Ron DeSantis,
million dollar budget
NCAA lawsuit.
For keeping...
So, the Division 1 football teams
who are kept out of the NCAA
playoff, so FAMU,
is that who you're mad on behalf of?
Because that, like, the FCS teams in Florida,
that is a short list.
It's, it's
What number sounds big to an idiot?
I have a million dollar budget.
To Spencer's earlier point,
like politicians deciding it's time to scream at a sports league
is the ultimate like,
oh my God,
things are falling apart.
Dad's like,
let's go to the batting cages.
What about that?
Wouldn't that solve our problems today?
You're like, yeah, really good.
Especially in this case, it's like you're not only, are you not blazing a new path?
You are walking down a wide, well-lit, freshly paved boulevard because we have already with the NCAA not that long ago, been in a situation where Brett fucking Kavanaugh was making cogent and agreeable points about how much the NCAA sucks.
You're not doing anything new here.
Terrible people who are just as terrible as you have already been down here.
with their machetes. You're just out for a stroll.
If you are ESPN, the cause football playoff, the NCAA, whoever, like, yes, you live in
fear of certain things. Getting sued by the fucking clown show in Florida is not high on that
list. Like, there is nothing that if I got sued by Ron DeSantis, I would be like, fuck yeah,
let's do this. I'm good enough lawyer to handle this. I'm ready. I wanted a clown show in
Florida. I would go to Florida State's fine circus program. That's right. It's so true.
true. It's a wonderful institution.
Ron DeSantis, I dare you to sue this podcast.
That'd be great for marketing.
So awesome. Right?
Is that the thing I could speak into existence for 24?
Is that we get sued by the state of Florida?
Ryan, can you get me banned from a Florida library?
Yeah, probably.
Oh, I'll do that.
People say like, but Ryan, you don't live in Florida and your kids don't use those libraries.
Why should that matter?
Since when do they care about that?
Not important.
Liberty is here.
It's the three of you.
I should be able to set up a batting.
Yeah, I should be able to set up a batting cage in a public library.
I think we can't call it Dance for Liberty.
I think we can't call it Dads for Liberty because the rules of these things be like are the name of it can't match the people who are actually behind it.
That's true.
So in this case, I don't know.
Grand Dats for Liberty.
Yeah, there it is.
Like we're going to start the most liberal.
and honest organization in the world,
which is going to be grandads for fascism.
That's what it is.
Grandads for grumpiness.
Yeah.
Whatever you're looking at,
just invert every one of the terms.
Just reverse all of them.
Can I throw in a real quick podcast business here?
Yes.
We're still in podcast business.
My novel, Hell is the World Without You,
is available for Quotefingers pre-order.
Sometimes big tech decide
pre-orders fake.
I have no control over that.
So some people have read it and they've said to me like, hey man, it was cool seeing myself in a novel for the first time ever.
I gave me all sorts of feelings and stuff when you say that.
I know you grew up like me, you grew up evangelical.
But I've also seen this other reaction, one of my favorite reactions from former colleague Seth Rosenthal on Blue Sky today, who said,
I'm buying this book, just to figure out what the hell Jason's talking about.
And that is just as valid as well.
If you did not grow up like me, yeah, come find out what the hell people like me were up to when we were weird in high school.
And you were slightly less weird.
So, yeah, those, I'm here for those two entirely different, entirely different camps.
And I'll pre-order money going into the Trevor Project in February.
Is anybody not weird in high school?
Crickets, cricket.
Okay, that's fine.
You would be weird if you were normal.
That's a deep thought, man.
yeah man
I just overcome
with the desire
to bully you

in a, let's say
60 second span.
No, don't do 60.
That's too long.
No, that's a long.
60 is too long.
60 is too long.
No, let's do 60 because I want to see what happens when he can't hold
Yeah, that's the point in his head for a minute.
Also, you're going to be, also you're going to laugh your ass off when I named the first one.
Okay, hold on.

Numbers. There's tens of thousands of people in numbers briefly.
Literally didn't include the first two characters, the first of human characters in the Bible.
So good job.
They're not relevant.
The first two. God and the spirit. That's two.
You left out the first of human characters.
You left out a giant snake.
I did leave out the giant snake.
Okay.
Got all the johns. I left out, I left out Ecclesiastes, right?
Yeah, that guy. Yeah.
That guy.
Greg Ecclesiastes.
Left out Noah, which I took great personal offense to.
Well, no, that's a claim on you.
You got to.
It's not a claim.
I should have said, I should have.
That's such a wonderful film.
My proper answer should have been.
Noah's in the Bible.
That really should have been.
I am so excited for, I'm so excited for Jason to spring upon you at the live show we're doing that we're going to do Bible trivia, you versus random member of the crowd.
And if they get it right and you get it wrong, you have to hand them a $5 bill.
I should just hand it to it.
I learned all of the Bible
you needed to learn to be good at quiz bowl
basically.
Custard bowl. It's custard bowl now.
Get on board.
Custard quiz boxing.
And let me in this quiz bowl
if this is.
What, wait, how much Bible comes up in quiz bowl?
Anything that's a literary reference.
Or anything that's a legal reference.
So basically if it was tied to
something in something else
and as an illusion or a reference, right?
Shakespeare referenced it.
God, you had that information right to hand, didn't you?
Yeah, 100%.
So, like, you know about, like, King Solomon?
Yes.
But just because it's...
No, yeah, I couldn't tell you the story, but I'm like,
oh, yeah, judgment, King Solomon, yeah, wise, sure, there.
He's so full of shit.
So I know, I know the most...
Be clear, not Spencer.
Also Spencer.
Spencer's got this.
Yeah.
Spencer would never cut a baby in half.
I would no I would never cut a baby in half what direction do you think the plan was to go vertical or horizontal it's gotta be vertical right that's the only way to be fair I don't know like that that feels right but that's also more difficult like I think it'd be hard to spatch cock a baby he was I think according to walk hard it's it's horizontal okay I don't know maybe it's diagonal like sandwich he was fucking winging it he's full that's true yeah they were all wing in it come on man you know oh yeah God told me to do this
Sure.
Do you think King Solomon was like, oh, wait, you're putting this in?
Oh, God.
I don't know if I would have said all that if I knew it was going in the final cut.
Can we add it?
Hey, guys, I kind of look like a dick in this.
Yeah.
Well, yeah.
So, like, this is getting ahead on a VBS episode, but all the Solomon is wise stuff,
it's so fucking sarcastic.
I'm talking about the Bible itself is sarcastic about Solomon's wisdom.
I'm not, again, I'm not joking.
You would love the Bible, Spencer.
It wasn't it, wasn't it, wasn't it, David, who's,
saw Bathsheba and was like, I'm going to ruin that man's life so that I can take his like lady.
Yes.
Yeah.
And then like he.
The product of that was Solomon.
That's how you know David.
It was a true dog.
Like that's how you knew he had chest full of dogs because he got to the final draft of the Bible.
And they were like, David, you got this thing in here about like how you were so horny.
You ruined another guy's life because you were king and abused your power.
So you could have her.
And he's like, leave it in.
They got.
I mean, the Bible has a lot of.
or steal your girl. I'm not at all joking.
Let the boy watch.
I'm completely not joking.
The David propaganda in the Bible is completely sarcastic.
Completely sarcastic.
It is not sincere praise.
Is that why he has a little penis in the statute?
Probably. Probably.
They were like, hmm, it's so majestic and refined and gentlemanly, right?
Well, you know, actually, by scale, if you're up next to it, it's still pretty huge.
Get his job, John
It's an average
And David said
I am a grower, not a shower
