Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome to the shutdown forecast. This is our, this is, you know, we're stretching into the offseason. I want to know how you guys felt. How your energy levels. Because, you know, you got to monitor that. February's tricky. I think it's hard to manage. Because most people, when do most people sort of let off the gas a little bit, right?
Starting point is 00:00:21 Most people let off the gas like holidays, right? And we don't, we don't get to do that, really. college football doesn't get to do that because the holiday it's it's a working holiday and you go someplace like i don't know you could list any number of the wonderful environs that the sport inhabits from time to time like shreveport i know always first in mind boise yeah yeah that's that that that's another one the ghost of san diego whatever san diego is whatever it's whatever you want it to be except a pro football town it's not that it's definitely
Starting point is 00:01:03 you know what San Diego State heard you say that and they're very very disappointed if San Diego State could move to L.A., they fucking would. Just the Aztec mascot with his feathered headdress getting into a moving van. I'm out of here, bro. If you out there, if you are a San Diego State, fan who is offended by what Spencer just said please please tweet it Spencer about it
Starting point is 00:01:33 you'll have to tweet at me because you're not driving over you know I'm so mad I don't go down I 10 I just want to see something see how many San Diego State folks we got I'm gonna guess three yeah but you don't you don't get to take bright and now it's like you know coming up on mid-February kind of eased through a little bit we just got through signing day, correct? Yeah, if you say so, yeah. As a Florida fan, I don't concern myself with these things. We did okay.
Starting point is 00:02:07 That's always my answer for signing day if it's not a clear, like, number one with a bullet class. I'm like, we filled our needs. Listen, you may be totally right, but I still don't concern myself with these things. That's fine. I'm telling you the pat answer to give, because somebody's going to go, oh, you're an expert. I should ask you about it. You should go, I think we did all right. It's, you're, listen, it's fine.
Starting point is 00:02:29 But Florida and Tennessee, they both had terrible fucking seasons last year. So caring about this signing day seems like absurd to me. Your house, your house just burnt down and somebody's like, ooh, uh, yeah, looks like you're on napkin duty at next year's, at next year's, the 4th of July mixer. Who gives a shit? That's forever. That's forever from now. I'm worried about the house, the one that's burned down. you got a hundred thousand dollars in medical debt and here you are getting excited about um pretzels or bogo at the grocery store i found a twenty dollar bill in my jacket tennessee only found ten dollars my liver my liver doesn't fucking work
Starting point is 00:03:12 when daddy macklewain falls asleep on the couch smoking again there's the kind of things that happen that's why his teeth are that way keep, just keep, you know, watching film and falling asleep here. That's my... Nicotine's a natural protectant for the tooth's surface. Government doesn't want you to know that. It forms...
Starting point is 00:03:36 It forms a shield. Forms. forms a glistening, glistening protective casing. No, it's not attractive, but it works. You know, it forms an aura. If it doesn't work, why haven't I been to the dentist in 18 years? There is
Starting point is 00:03:52 I think there's some truth to that, by the way, that, like, that, like, if you smoke for you, no, if you, if you're of a certain genetic predisposition, and I don't know what that is with no trend, all right, but there's just a certain type of person who, if they smoke cigarettes real hard for, like, 20, 30 years, they've become this kind of indestructible, you know, wooden sort of God. It's, yeah, it's, it's like, it's, it's like a buff that they've acquired. It's some sort of weird video game, tweak where it's like oh you got that power yeah and they don't get sick yeah no they don't get sick one day at like 60 they just explode right your whole house smells terrible in all of your
Starting point is 00:04:34 clothes but you will never get the flu you will never get the flu I had at least two I had at least two relatives who fit this like John Wayne profile right of like everything's fine I've never even had an uncomfortable shit son I'm not stopping smoking you're crazy
Starting point is 00:04:51 I mean, they say whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger. That includes things you do to yourself. It's the conversion to full, it's the full conversion to tumor. I think if your whole body is tumor, then you can't get cancer. I mean, that's basically, that's basically what Darth Vader is, right? Darth Vader's a smoker who just was like, nope, I'll never give it up. And then, and then you know what? His shitty little earthy hippie son convinced him to give it up.
Starting point is 00:05:20 and what happened, he died. Yep, right then and there. Right. Unhooked the apparatus from his lungs that were giving him that sweet, sweet tar into his charred remains. I just want to see somebody remake the original Star Wars trilogy where Darth Vader has a huge Marlboro logo on his cape the whole time. Or I thought you were going to steal my bit on this, which is that you just Photoshop or digitally CGB. eye, right? You just sort of put the effect in of him ripping off
Starting point is 00:05:54 nasty, huge vape clouds the entire time. I mean, where do they put him when he goes to sleep? They put him in a big tank full of smoke. That's canon. Look it up, folks. When they take off his armor and he's just a little stump, they put him in a tank
Starting point is 00:06:12 and leave him there to barbecue all night. Hey, in every single scene where Darth Vader bust through a wall with some stormtroopers, what's the first thing that pours out. That's right. Smoke. Sick babes.
Starting point is 00:06:27 It's like a 1998 Nate Dog tour every time Vader steps in the room. Do you want, by the way, I have a friend who works in the hotel business and another one who works kind of peripherally with some hip-hop people.
Starting point is 00:06:43 This is your thing that, unlike Ryan, I'm not an attorney, so I would not have thought of this brilliance, okay? but do you know where like rappers with weed or any musician with weed sleeps when they go to the nice hotel they sleep on the bus why because if I had to guess it's because it's easier to search a hotel room than it is a car exactly you put all your people and get them they get rest up there but but all anything you got contraband you just set up a little area it's
Starting point is 00:07:18 way harder to get that that search warrant for the bus, right? Because like it falls under RV law. RV law, separate law. And also, if they're coming on the bus, you can just say, oh, that's not mine. Oh, Judge Madden will never sign this warrant. Boom, you got no probable cause. So that means that, you know, when the shutdown full cast tour gets underway, right?
Starting point is 00:07:42 Oh, God. We got to get a tour bus and we got to put up some stanchion so that it's a separate domicile that's only search. and ruleable under the laws of the road. I'm so excited for you to insist that you don't have to pay taxes when you're on the bus. This is an international through way. This is Route 74 through Kansas, son. Why are we in Kansas?
Starting point is 00:08:09 We're a football podcast. I'll have you know I have mineral rights underneath this bus wherever I park it. Jason's just out there. Prospected. That's my parking lot now. Guys, we've gone at least 10 minutes and we haven't talked about the murder robot dogs. How is that possible?
Starting point is 00:08:32 Murder robot. Boston Dynamics. I mean, do you doubt the hellmouth spitting out the robot demons of tomorrow that resides somewhere in Boston? I am so here for the murder. Everybody's on Twitter. oh no, here comes the end.
Starting point is 00:08:49 Boston Dynamics done did it. Skynets. No, man, this is fucking great. Yes, I concede that the murder robot dogs will be the downfall of all that we have built and everyone that we love. But you know what? It was all going to shit anyway. And murder robot dogs,
Starting point is 00:09:06 they don't discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation or religion or gender or age or economic back. They just fucking chew through you. with their robotic dog mouths, which they don't have, but they will have. That will happen. Just accept it now.
Starting point is 00:09:24 It's fine. It's totally, if we have to go, I would much rather leave this planet to a murderous horde of robot dogs. If aliens come to Earth now, what's the most impressive thing we can show them? The most impressive thing that we can show them is,
Starting point is 00:09:43 um, uh, the Nintendo Switch? There's a big-ass gas station about halfway between New Mexico and Oklahoma that's like a city. Oh yeah, we can show them a Buckees.
Starting point is 00:09:58 I put that up against anything. Yeah, like a Buckees with like the Buckees in like the Buckees on I-10 between San Antonio and El Paso that has a urinal for every single gas pump and there's like 80 gas pumps at this Buckees because it's like, it's basically like the gas.
Starting point is 00:10:16 factory in any Mad Max movie, right? This is where everybody's going to go as to this, Buckees, right? Yeah. So, we're talking about 1,200 years since the dark ages. That's the best we've come up with.
Starting point is 00:10:32 Give the fucking robot dogs 15 years, and they will blow these aliens' minds. They will build something so amazing and so unsoppled that the aliens would be like, whatever was here before sucked. And they'd be right. So, I mean, the thing with the robot dogs is, you know, it's true what they say. There's no such thing as a bad dog, only bad owners.
Starting point is 00:10:53 And who owns the robot dog? People. So how are you going to blame the robot dog? I don't know why everybody's terrified of this robot dog when Boston Dynamics' most terrifying creature has been playing quarterback in Foxborough for the past, like what? 18 years. It's true. These robot dogs, they also don't eat hardly any human food. teach the robot that night shades are bad have the robot say i'm just a positive person when you ask
Starting point is 00:11:19 about anything so this is how we defeat the robot dogs we have them sleep under normal blankets they're overheated and they had a mushroom you bean it with a strawberry i ate a piece of cornbread now i have sunburn we have we have the robot dogs play the Philadelphia Eagles. What happened? Piling up the most meaningless yard you've ever seen. 100% the robot dogs are Eagles fans. 100%.
Starting point is 00:11:50 I don't know. That town doesn't like robots. Yeah. That's true. The robot dogs are coming for their boy. Hold on. Hold on. The robot dogs don't wear pants.
Starting point is 00:12:00 Are super proud when they can stand up long enough to open a door. And are predicted to be the destruction of all human kind. That's Philly. Can I, no, can I, can I rephrase this for you? Yes. Okay, robot dogs flummoxed by ice and snow. We've seen footage of this, right? Okay, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:19 They can take a kick, though, but they'll wobble a little bit as if drunk. Right. Take about 30 seconds to get through a door, and it takes two of them, right? Mm-hmm. Right? Let's see, you can pour any amount of alcohol into them and they'll just keep going, right? How are these not Wisconsin fans? Well, no, the Wisconsin fans, the ice and snow, they'd be okay.
Starting point is 00:12:41 So we convert. These are LSU fans, right? Yeah. Terrifying, probably speak a code that we don't really understand, right? Can't throw and don't care. All ground game, baby. All ground game. All they do is go chase the ball once it's already hit the ground.
Starting point is 00:13:03 That's right. That's right. Created in a lab, right? You can't spell lab without La, as in Louisiana. So there, I'm convinced that, yeah, the Boston Dynamics Robot Dogs, they're actually LSU fans. There, we decided it. See, not so scary now. Well, kind of.
Starting point is 00:13:24 It's actually much worse. Oh, God, the dogs learned how to make a roo. Don't tell the dog. The robot LSU fans. Don't tell the dogs how we did on signing day. This is my favorite thing with LSU fans is that they were like at a top 15 recruiting class and they're like, God damn it.
Starting point is 00:13:46 Half of all LSU fans, by the way, have already fired at Orgera out in their head. It's done. It's done. They're already there. Number 14 ranked recruiting class. Oh, man. So you think Jimbo come?
Starting point is 00:14:01 Do you think we can pay them $22 million a year? I think we could, you know, shake a couple of natural gas refineries loose and see if that change will come out, 22 mil. Honestly, if there's a Jimbo Fisher impersonator out there, you can probably make $9 million a year if you take the Florida State, the LSA job. So Louisiana is going to sell a couple of private prisons to raise the money to pay any NASCAR driver to come impersonate Jimbo. Well, they'll rent them for children's parties and such. That's, which again. Number 15, that's quite below their standards. That's, it is below their standards.
Starting point is 00:14:41 I get that. I just enjoy that like, this isn't a blip. This isn't anything. They're just like, you know, Ed, Ed, it's been nice. It's been good. It's been good. Cousin, love you. Love you so much.
Starting point is 00:14:56 Get in this boat. Get in this boat. Don't ask why. It's getting this boat. This is where you get drunk, you weigh over, Commensate, you pay John Fox like $35 million. Just do it. He's taking multiple teams
Starting point is 00:15:09 to the Super Bowl. Did he win? That's not important. You won't play in the Super Bowl. So you don't have to worry about that part. Yeah. Problem solved. Just go get Sean Payton. No. He's nearby. No.
Starting point is 00:15:27 Sean. Oh, oh, man. I want you to imagine the mix feelings when when Saints fans are like oh Sean Peyton's leaving ah you know what it's for the best he did a lot of good things to the team but we kind of feel like he'd reach the ceiling and he took the LSU god damn it god damn it we'll never be free of him
Starting point is 00:15:47 oh man that I mean there is one way to be free of him ban pills oh please send any and all inquiries to our council The man who just made that comment. Bud Elliot.
Starting point is 00:16:06 That's right. But Elliot. This is one thing that I also found today that I have to discuss with you. This is a quiz I want to ask everybody, okay? Because you're familiar with the television series, not the two movies, including one done by Edward Norton. definitely didn't help ruin the franchise. The Incredible Hulk, you're familiar with the concept of the old show, right? Bill Bixby, something would happen in an episode as he drifted from one version of Hellworld to the next,
Starting point is 00:16:43 trying to help people turning green and smashing shit and having to move to the next town. It was really a show all about how important it is to own a car. Yes. That's all it was. Like, very few of the things that turned him into the Hulk would have happened if he had just had a car. damn it Carter you had to put this country in the shitter make the Incredible
Starting point is 00:17:06 Holt explode all over the place I blame Georgia, I blame Georgia Tech Anyway, why do you bring up the Incredible Hulk? So what I wanted to ask you was I'm going to give you a quiz okay? Because this is fascinating to me
Starting point is 00:17:26 and you have to tell me whether these are real or fake reasons that the Hulk hulked out in the original Incredible Hulk series. Oh, my God. We're so off-season, it fucking hurts. Yeah. I mean, we do have football content. It's coming if you want it,
Starting point is 00:17:42 but this is better. I'm just going to go ahead and tell you. You got to earn it. Oh, hey, why did you do that Olympic show? That sounded good. Well, this is what you're getting said, fucks. Yeah. So, I'm going to give you a reason and you have to tell me whether it's real
Starting point is 00:17:58 or it's fake. I'm probably going to do like six or seven of them get carried away and maybe get to eight. Okay. Okay. Yeah. All right. So, so. Being punched out. Um, that seems real.
Starting point is 00:18:16 Yeah, that sounds pretty real. Okay. Receiving a lethal injection and then having the person say, oh, I just gave you a lethal injection. Sorry, David. Huh. yeah yeah if you just left out if you just did the first part i might have said fake but i'll go real on that being pushed down we'll go through these at the end being pushed down a mountainside
Starting point is 00:18:44 by a big foot impersonator real real real so this tv show was like 78 to 83 or something like That sounds right. Yeah. Sure. Yeah, I'll take yes on that one. Dealing with a pesky operator in a phone booth. Actual quote from the episode, I don't have 25 cents, unquote. Is that real or fake? I mean, that's got to be real. Yeah. Yeld that by a mean cop. Mm, fake. I'm just going to go real and all. Okay.
Starting point is 00:19:29 Please envision this one for me, okay? Somehow locking himself in an old dark basement and then nearly electrocuting himself. Think of how stupid. I mean, that's got to be fake because Dave Banner's too smart to do that. No, that's real. Kicking over a beehive and then being surprised when the bees are mad at him. See, this is dumb. What kind of David Banner doesn't know what B's are?
Starting point is 00:20:03 Fake. Locked in a drunk tank with a crazy person who insists he is Ernest Hemingway, and then beats the crap out of Dail. Real. Real. Yeah, that's real. Mm-hmm. All right, about three or four more.
Starting point is 00:20:18 Somehow getting... We're at like 13, that's fine. Being rear-ended 15 times in a row. by a mean bully with a bigger car than his. You know, it's just, it's, it wouldn't take 15. It's, it's good because podcasts are, you know, a way to reach a young audience. That fucking, that fucking loves the original Incredible Hulk television show. Well, this is something for everybody.
Starting point is 00:20:42 The kids need to know that the past was crap, okay? They need to know. Yep. Spencer's giving them a BuzzFeed quiz. That one's fake. That one's fake. It would take like two, not 15. Being beaten up by the rag trade mob and having his arm placed in a press iron.
Starting point is 00:21:02 Yes. Real. That sounds too specific to be fake. I don't know what most of those things are. Okay. And then it's the last one in my favorite. Bringing it back to LSU, so we're not totally off the rails. Being thrown under a New Orleans Mardi Gras parade float by a mean guy in a gorilla suit
Starting point is 00:21:23 who gives Dave a few kicks for good measure. Who? Real. I'll go fake I guess All of these are real Every single one of these is real There's one where he gets blinded Somehow
Starting point is 00:21:42 And he stumbles into a minefield Just wanders into an actual live minefield Somewhere in California Because that'll happen So in the 70s David Banner was like Wiley Coyote but but but but just minding his own fucking business like the whole premise of wiley coyote is that he's fucking with the roadrunner most of these scenarios he's just doing normal shit no like some of these are like a row of computers falls on him a lot of these sounds like a lot of these sound like ways that a sim would die right if you didn't teach him how to do shit stuck in a pool with no ladder yeah no Stuck between four sofas.
Starting point is 00:22:28 An old woman won't give him birthday cake. Standing in a room with no bed, die of sleep deprivation. David Pee's himself at dinner for no reason. So mad. Stuck on the second floor. See, that's an incredible Hulk I can believe in. Not one who's like, I'm mad and I've got the rage of my father, because I'm an edible
Starting point is 00:22:56 figure. No, no, no. The one I get is like, ah, I was opening malt liquor and cut my hand on the aluminum ring. Ah! These chips are mostly air. Toddler headbutted me.
Starting point is 00:23:15 How did he ever, how was he ever calm? How is anything ever okay? Stumbles into bees nest. what are bees I don't know what bees are God
Starting point is 00:23:30 What are we talking about No oh we had a Fuck this is probably a good point To say what this episode is Listen if you nail If you nail this segue Give you give this man a Peabody I don't even think he's attempting it
Starting point is 00:23:42 No No we're just gonna We're just gonna jump right out of this This car is hurtling off the mountain And I'm just getting out Bye Spencer I love you Yeah Yeah, it's been good.
Starting point is 00:23:54 I'll miss you. That was the end of our third segment brought to you by sponsor. Now it's time for the fourth segment. I mean, we can, we can, this is probably a good point. So, yeah, people got frustrated that last week there was a bonus episode of the full cast, which was not the full cast, because we weren't on it and it was organized and it was topical and it sounded nice and it suggested effort and intention. And it was on topic.
Starting point is 00:24:26 It was all the things the show is not. To apologize for that, here's a promo for a show from our friends at fox.com. I'm Sean Ramosverum. I'm the host of Today Explained, a new show from Vox. It's an all-killer, no-filler, daily news explainer that'll drop every afternoon. But not on the recap.
Starting point is 00:24:47 Our show's going to explain the news every way we know how. Clips, radio drama, maybe even a song. Today, today explains. This day, explain. Subscribe now in Stitcher, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen. Because listen, the only thing you should know about this show at this point, if you've been listening to this show this long, you know that we don't care about you, and we don't care about us.
Starting point is 00:25:13 So it's fair. It's fair. It's more than fair. We're the ones who do the show. That's how little we care about us. Yeah. On the alignment, chaotic neutral. That's what we are.
Starting point is 00:25:25 Cautic neutral. And we will look forward to the promotion of this program by all of Vox's podcasts. It's, it's going to be good. God, I'm going to record something terrible for them. It's, oh, yeah. Yeah, just going to combine our worst moments. It's fine. But this is, finally, without further ado, I know people were thinking, like, signing day,
Starting point is 00:25:50 came and went the shutdown forecast had nothing to say what the hell bro we're so many levels ahead of 2018 signing day okay you know who doesn't care about 2018 signing day anymore coaches they've moved that's right where where are we jason where we laser focused on already well we're racing past 2019 the 2019 signing class um george's already locked up number one got three five stars already Miami's already nailed down number two. BYU is in at number nine for 2019. That'll hold. I agree.
Starting point is 00:26:30 Of course, those players will be like 38 years old, but Bama's down to number 10. Two straight week years. Rutgers is ahead of Ohio State. There's no reason to think that will change and that Urban Meyer has any reason to stay. All of these things, yeah, they're all locks. All 100% locks.
Starting point is 00:26:48 Don't even bother looking, 2019 recruiting rankings will not change from today. 2019 recruiting rankings, done. We can skip ahead to 2020, where if you look on 24-7, you discover that FAU has a secret commit. You click on FAU's lists. Oh, wait, now you see, shows up now.
Starting point is 00:27:13 Brandon McDuffie, FAU commit. I thought we had a mystery unveiled in just the last 30 minutes. Wow. that we're breaking news tennessee's got two commits neither of them got stars no wait they're invisible tennessee's 2020 commits that's on brand you go to the 2020 rankings you click on tennessee it says two commits you click on tennessee it says no results found god be that would be some butch jones shit wouldn't it be like our this year's recruiting class we're not announced names we're not sending in names at all because we're a unit be like coach that means none of the none of the letters of intent
Starting point is 00:27:46 are valid if you don't they they're not putting their names on it all right I'm going to sign any 25 people who want to be on this football team. You sent me your letter for intent and I put the team down in the signature block. I don't even need players. I just need the concentrated power of will like the song. I've changed you to a name like a Stormtrooper because that's our theme for this year. Stormtroopers, TM205, get over here. My favorite thing about early recruiting rankings is Miami always ranks really, really high.
Starting point is 00:28:17 These days under Mark Rick, they're a bit more like. to actually stay there in and around the top 10, but like for like five or 10 years in a row, if you look at their recruiting rankings more than six months out, you're going to see Miami in the top 10. And sure enough, 2019 number two, 2020 number one, they have basically as many commits as everybody else combined for 2020. I don't know, Miami just gets the shit down early. I guess they're surrounded by old people. Got to go to bed. But then they just fall back, you know? jump out of these huge leads and what the hell happens god it's a metaphor god it's an apt metaphor it reminds you of some things but hey we're not here to dwell on 2020 we got we got
Starting point is 00:29:00 you can go you can go look at the 2021 rankings page at 24-7 um no one has committed yet no results you can jump ahead to 2029 you get see typical millennial scared you can jump ahead to 2529 there is a page if you type in into the URL 25 20 you can go to 3,000 9,999, you can go back to 1776, 24-7's got it all prepared for you, just in case somebody signs with America in 1776. Give a time. Listen, nobody signed for 1974 yet, but you know what, if I'm an NCAA team, I say, well, count my recruits against that. No, yeah, I know when he graduated, but he's counting towards the class. of 202835 this one's counting against class of 1960 all right go look at 247 how many how many does it say we have zero i get to use those
Starting point is 00:30:01 spots that's how this works that's smart yeah i think that's what dabbo's doing it's bringing in these classes of like eight five stars a year so he's got all these spots left over and then he's going to also cash in the 1936 signings that he didn't use just bring in like a hundred people it does feel like dabbo is trying to to get like a very specific settlers of Khatam achievement, right? He's like, oh, look, I have all the wool. Eat it. I do enjoy, you know, when you talk about, you know, future recruiting classes that the entire, we had a panic, right,
Starting point is 00:30:40 about, oh, I don't know, Lane Kiffin just offered like a fetus. Is recruiting going to creep? Or is this too soon? Are we going to have people committing like seven, eight years early? Never happened. Never happened. Remember, like David Clarkson? Like, oh, man, we're going to offer David Clarkson.
Starting point is 00:30:55 Even though he's 11. There was this, like, minor moment of panic about, oh, man. Now we're going to just, now we're, it's going to be out of control. They're going to be recruiting nine-year-old. No. Oh, man. Imagine that happening in, like, any other college sport except for football. That's inconceivable.
Starting point is 00:31:12 How about any other sport, right? Like, that's how they felt, like, how old was Leonel Messi? when Barsa got him, right? Like, they helped pay for his, like, hormone treatments. That's how long they knew him. They knew him when they were like, yeah, you know, he's eight and he's a little short.
