What is the Ethan Hawk of Nandrolone?
That's when I knew there was some great parting culturally between me and that particular vein of thinking was an inordinate fascination with Ethan Hawk.
I'm like, I actually can't see Ethan Hawk.
I'm like a T-Rex.
If Ethan Hawk is there, I have a blindness to him.
Ethan Hawk would be my dinosaur hunter if I were a T-Rex because he's invisible.
I can't think of a less consequential actor.
Spencer, you're saying you do not.
have hawkeye wow
it's kind of like
infinity war there's no
hawkeye there's no
hawkine notice
it's a pretty good movie
based on one key metric
based on
based on the key metric of
what do we have the Hulk
awesome Thor
badass scarlet witch
awesome
what do we not have
we don't have
captain cabellas we don't have the guy who's basically the coolest guy at cabellas not to say that
like the coolest guy at cabellas isn't quite an achievement in your life but not what i want to watch
in a movie about superheroes uh bad bunny has entered the royal rumble every thank you there'll be
important updates here america has peaked he has exited the royal rumble yeah
Welcome to the shutdown full cast
You are listening
Kind of just sort of didn't really have
That's fine
Do you want to try it?
No, I just like
Do you want to put these boots on?
A challenger.
Yeah, no.
Oh, well.
All right.
Do you want the 24-7 belt?
All right, here we go.
Do you want the 24-7 belt?
Welcome!
Wow.
Look at the levels on that.
What if you started at the same time and we see who has more breath control?
We can try that, ready?
Can we see who can go longer?
Hold it longer?
Yeah.
All right, ready?
Here we go.
One, two, three.
The harmony.
Welcome.
anymore but Ryan you don't try that shit again no that was actually quieter in my headphones than
out of it I just the harmony is very nice though for the record it was like being at an air show
this is why this is why I'm critical of Spencer because I know what he's capable of yeah you did
the thing where like you oh no I only picked against your team to motivate you didn't it work
it did it did it was incredible that's why that's why I'm the greatest coach in college football
I decided about a nanosecond before we did that
that I was going to die rather than lose
That's
Diamond hands
Diamond hands
I was going to hold
Diamond hands
I was going to hold
$1,000 a share
No Ryan Nandy going for 30 seconds
I'm going for 31
We're going to bankrupt Ryan Nanny
Think about
Think about what an explanation
Hey Holly has to go into the room
Hey guys
So your dad just died
but he died doing
something he loves.
It was awesome.
That man hollered so long
that he made Ryan sick.
They would buy that.
It's like, oh, it was awesome.
Okay.
He died doing what he loved.
Being a podcast asshole.
That would be the Royal Rumble
where the last person who comes in
is invisible me and I have to fight me
at the end of the match, right?
Shadow Spencer.
Yeah, Shadow.
Dark link, Spencer.
answer yeah yeah exactly i have to i have to stone cold stun myself in order to win the match
yeah um we actually currently by so many people have already turned off this podcast after
that's good no they're good listen that hooked them they're in there needs to be a dividing line
between people who who get this and don't and me yelling the word welcome for well over 20 seconds
that that is a dividing line that's what we discover
the paper hands.
Yeah, that's the one we discarded the paper hands.
They shriveled.
They washed up, okay?
Only diamond hands in this podcast.
Diamond hands only.
Other podcasts are like, hey, tell your friends, subscribe, leave a review, and we're like,
you must be proven.
Enter the testing grounds.
Warning what it takes.
This podcast, as we say, challenge your friends.
Only after surmounting the 16 challenges of the full cast may you download.
Can, how long can your friends last?
I hope somebody got pulled over by the cops, by the way, with this guy and forgot to turn it down.
If you, if this happened to you, and please don't, don't rewind and try to make it happen to you, it has to happen naturally.
But if this happened to you, please let us.
Please, yeah, please let us know that the worst thing that happened, the stupidest thing that we just caused.
cop just emptying the full clip into the radio
right into the stereo
why'd you do that
what if the cop joined in
the cop said
oh
hey I know this one
I hope that got him out of a ticket right
he probably actually wrote him two right
like hey you're going to let me off now and he's like nope
giving you two
absolutely not
why are you going so fast because
Satan lives in my radio.
He's called the shutdown forecast, and I can't turn him down, just like the real Satan.
I really love, by the way, the progression that we have as a podcast, which is, no, you never go asleep and go to sleep before the Hawaii game.
You stay up the whole time.
The entire culture has attuned itself to our frequencies, right?
Are you going to, what are you going to do?
Are you going to make a sensible investment?
No, what are you going to do?
I'm going to opo a short on GameStop stock.
When are you going to sell it?
And when it's like a $200?
No, $400?
No, $1,000 diamond hands.
No!
I'm going to wait until it's $10 million a share.
Then I'm cashing out.
And only then.
I have set my sell limit on my last share at $66.
I want the meme.
I want the meme number.
Where is our stonk?
Jason, you missed our stonks.
episode but you are bought in correct oh yeah i'm still in still in still in two hands two hands holding
two well one hand because i sold all but one but two diamond hands on this last share i too still have
astunk i don't know if you've been following or if you follow him but michael ryan ruiz who's
part of the levitart hive he's to the moon he's gone completely insane all like he's like yeah like
Last week, Michael Ryan Ruiz, who to that point had been like a chipper, occasionally like, like, you know, a pretty enthusiastic fun presence on Twitter.
Last week, he's just like, yeah, we're going in.
GameStop, AMC, Dogecoin.
We're all going in on Dogecoin.
Is that how you pronounce? Oh, okay.
Doge coin.
Yeah, that's, we're all excited here.
He just went like super hard on like the crypto, you know, moon life.
And I couldn't be happier.
When you say it like that, it sounds awesome.
is here is a here is a tweet from him that i think best exemplifies it only hitting moon shots call me
doge consecoe yep that is definitely emblematic of something what's my investment strategy
all on 36 red yeah 36 red it's happening that's that to me that's that's that's that's that's that's full cast life
baby I think we've been on this from the start
fullcast is live
full cast is live
if you're saying fullcast is an ill-advised
investment that's likely to hurt more people
than it helps yes I agree with you
full cast is live
Danny Ross
if you're saying there's no
economic case why the full cast should
still be alive at this point yes
I agree with you if you're saying
many many people bet against
it and that is why
they failed
which is
which to all my diamond hands out there hold on to it now make them hurt make them hurt
download it four times I don't know how delete it delete your phone buy a new phone
with your game stop winnings and read download it on that phone what I need to do is buy 20 phones
I need you to download the forecast on all of them play them out loud dump the whole thing
at a sack at a bus stop play 200 phones each playing the welcome thing at once that's 400
welcomes at once open a hole in space time go back in time invest more money in game stop
money in game stop and spend half of it on new more even more phones fake your death but not before leaving
a favorable review on iTunes in your new identity leave a another favorite come a billionaire leave another
favorable review after your death ghost review then as the new person and the identity you've assumed
become a millionaire no become a billionaire get those diamonds
enhance get your moon shots okay come a billionaire and then short the full cast so that people can
bet on the full cast sacrifice yourself for the full cast hey good news uh i'm getting this from
twitter admittedly um the mayor of knox county is in the royal rumble that's right he uh i believe
he holds the record for most people eliminated is he wearing a mask career this is the rare opportunity
occasion where he is indeed wearing a mask yeah just ask him never figures you for a quitter cane
yeah apparently apparently cane's uh all in on the democrat conspiracy
joe biden's america even cane wears a mask hate it here that's you know knoxville wins and
Knoxville loses tonight since Bianca Belair took the women's title who was outstanding by the way
I think Tennessee is undefeated in regulation because this was supposed to go until 10 o'clock eastern
Bianca Bel Air won the Royal Rumble so anything that happens after 10 o'clock does not count thank you jason
i appreciate the support i'll also state that no thank you to spencer so you know what big night for georgia tech
because roman rains managed to win much like georgia tech's only recent national title
Man from Pensacola who went to college in Atlanta
used a golf cart as a weapon.
Who could have seen that coming?
Imagine if you were a Georgia grad
you got hit by a golf cart.
You'd be like, out of betrayal.
Hoist on my own dang partard.
Oh, that I loved running me down.
At two golf golf cart, Brute.
Oh, this is like the time Jeff Foxworthy
roasted me in the second row.
The blue collar called it to a turn on me.
That's an honor.
That's how you extend to Georgia Valhalla.
It hurt, though.
I have been chosen.
It hurt because Foxworthy went to Tech.
They didn't know that.
They'd be like,
Ah,
Tech got one over on me.
Oh, but he's so right.
He's right, though.
I hate him,
but God damn it,
do I not respect him?
What betrayal?
Slaming a Canadian with a golf cart.
The dream.
The America dream.
America's back.
We call that.
We did it.
We call that George Luge.
That's how we're delivering vaccines.
What are you doing?
Take the hypodermic, strap it to the front of a golf cart.
I hit you with it.
Like jousting.
Hypoderming jousting.
It's got a hurt.
Can we have, okay, can we create a pro jousting league that's like in the vein of wrestling?
Oh, wait, I just invented, never mind.
I just invented like competitive.
traveling rent fare i was going to say you're in mid yeah medieval times i don't hate it there's money
in that i think it's more expensive to go to medieval times than you think it is it has to be
where are you where the fuck are you supposed to house all those horses i assume the horses are just like
found that's got to be like yeah overhead what like it's 64 dollars for an adult like vagrant
horses yeah huh they may it's been in Orlando a lot more than we have i would
think that in Orlando, given some of the vacancy issues they've had, the horses could probably
just go to the sleep in, right?
Sure.
Comfort in, maybe the clarion.
If they're like, if you've been a good horse, we'll take you to the clarion.
Are you telling me there's no horse in the state of Florida that got signed up for a subprime
mortgage?
No.
You're confident?
Okay.
Not confident at all.
There are horses in Orlando that are homeowners.
they are way behind on their payments
because they can't use a computer
and pay for their mortgage.
Buddy, if I wanted an underwater horse,
I'd call a tray you.
It's too soon.
It's too soon.
Yeah, it is.
Ryan, did you go to the rent fare recently or something?
No, no.
You were just in the market?
No, you should know that
my extremely quarantined lifestyle
will not be broken because I'll also.
say hey you know what let's renfair this bitch no that will not be my triumphant return to society
that is however going to be the episode title yeah have you been right have you've been to a renfair
and if so when was the last time i think i went once when i was like maybe 10 because like a family
friend was watching us for the saturday and was like oh let's go take the kids to this they'll think
that's they'll like think that shit is fun but i i i don't think i i i cannot recall ever being
uh ever attending any other rent fairs fair okay holly renaissance is fair have you been to a rent
fair i believe we have talked about this previously on the shutdown forecast a renaissance fair
in los angeles is a thing it takes over an entire state park it is not for children
there is i believe this came up on the show before because uh me and my traveling crew most of whom are
friends of the program drank a shit ton of mead and passed out on a riverbank that is that is
that is medieval as hell and we were covering an election so yeah got a flower crown this all sounds
authentic. This all sounds true to the
true to the time of the experience.
I'm a big boobbed nerd girl. Of course I've been to a
fucking Renaissance fair. That's what you call a target
rich environment for someone of my
silhouette.
Spencer, have you been to a run fair?
No, let me ask a different question. Spencer, have you worked
at a Renfair? Fair question. Very good question.
No. I've not worked at Red fair.
Because it
because it brought back bad memories of
of the actual medieval times.
Now, he's been banned from the life.
I was going to say, he said that in a way that suggests there was an application and maybe an interview, but not a hiring.
Brian, I've left that life behind me.
Don't bring it up again.
You know, I think you should keep your passion divorced from the money, right?
Yeah.
So I didn't want to get paid for the things that I truly, truly want to give up here.
I get it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, no, somehow I've never.
worked at a renfair i have been to a renfair you ask why did i go because um it was the target
rich environment for me boy that's why i went so yeah that's why i went in high school to a rent
fair because we're just pointing at each other doing the spider man meme right now you can't see it
yeah and you know inevitably you go and go i'm going to go to the renfair i think i'm going
pick up a renfair chick you know what you end up picking up a turkey leg i was going to say three
ran fare chicks turkey leg and a turkey leg yeah suit yourself this turkey leg loves me
it doth love me sorry yeah it was a tennessee ran fair too so i'm telling you front for meth
absolute front for drug dealing that was what the entire thing was i have a really annoying question
why do they call it a renfair when like the period of time it's depicting is not the renaissance
Oh, my Christ.
I said it was an annoying question.
No, you were right.
You were absolutely right.
I think because med fare suggests, like, that makes the whole drug, drug sales thing,
Spencer's referring to overt med fare.
Right.
Do we want to, you're right, though, Ryan, they should have more poisonings.
Yeah, that's the thing.
It's like, if it was a medieval fair, it would be like.
We should show up dressed like the Medici.
There should be, yeah, there should be more like, there should be more like papal murder.
This is a good sequel to our kid rock Vitruvian man episode
Congratulations on that segue from week to week
I'm sorry I keep ruining the show
No no this is fantastic
Why does everyone think I'm being sarcastic
I just assume I'm ruining the show
So would you like a slice of blackbird pie
Sure oh god that's horrified
So would anybody like to hear a cheerful medieval tale
Yes, this is about a dungeon full of 100 children
stolen by a nobleman who tortured them.
They stole a dungeon?
Medfair!
Medfair!
What's this one?
Yeah, you can send your kids across this lake.
What are they going to go do?
Well, they won't actually make it across the lake.
It's a children's crusade simulator.
Come back next week for Inquisition Fair.
Woo!
Oh, Ryan.
I'm thinking about the Children's Crusade musical from Camp now.
I'm sorry.
Did you have a children's crusade musical?
No, that definitely won't come up in the musical game later.
Uh-huh.
Yep.
Okay.
Yep.
That's fine.
Absolutely nothing happened in the world of college football this week, which I'm kind of grateful for you.
You wouldn't want to take the shine away from the Royal Rumble.
something I think most college football affiliated people would agree with
sincerely I say that like hey are we going to do anything this week
no no no roll rubble's coming we got to we got to keep our priorities
in the line that's why that's why the Lions and Rams got that trade done just in time
man what the fuck not you I'm talking to the Lions and Rams
what do you have not a solution yay neither party got a solution
and that's what we wanted.
I mean, the lion's got a lot of stuff.
That's always nice.
It's always nice to have stuff.
Where are we going to put all this stuff?
And also with Jared Goff.
Jared Goff, by the way, I said Jared Goff.
I was like, oh, man, like, there's an entire rumor
and an entire, like, sideline of this where they go,
Jared Goff's pretty much, like, topped out at what he can do processing.
When somebody says that, they're basically, like,
he's not a real bright quarterback and i said this out loud it someone corrected me and said
jared goff got a massive contract after having like one good year to which i said jared goff
is a very smart quarterback and he has done everything he is supposed to do and he is much more
intelligent than i am period
I don't disagree with that, yeah.
No, you cannot disagree with that.
Dude, did it right.
Matt Stafford, meanwhile.
Okay, when Matt Stafford was in college, did you ever think, oh, crap, we have to play Matt Stafford this week?
Not a ton, but I think, to be, like, perfectly fair, I think that had to do more with, like, Mark Richt than Matt Stafford.
Yeah, but were you ever scared?
Were you ever like, oh man, that guy, that guy,
he's going to cut us up?
No, like Matt Stafford was very much like,
it felt, I haven't looked any of this up,
but it felt like he was the king of like,
wow, his stateline was great, and they lost by 12.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm, kind of what he was at at Georgia.
And then, when watching him play professional football,
did one ever think, oh, I don't know, man.
They got to play the Lions and Matt Stafford this week.
gotta be honest i got one mad staff of memory and one matt staff of memory only what's that is it the
is it the one you have the keg snuggle at talladega mm-hmm okay yeah that's it and i say snuggle because
i know that he uh lifted a keg to great acclaim but i also know that much like me at the rent fair
he was also photographed dead ass asleep in the middle of the day in the sun uh later on at taladega
and I just kind of have
I have portmanteaued those in my head
to where he's like fallen asleep
snuggling a keg
please don't disabuse me of this
I do wish that
he had gone to the Bears instead
because if the Bears had run out
and said look at our history we have
Matt Stafford
Rex Grossman
um
Kyle
Kyle Orton Jay Cutler
it's like man you got a fucking
that's a drinking team
you guys are rolling
out there holy shit that's like uh it's like a old school movie or like uh it's not quite a wild
hogs movie but it's it's getting close yeah yeah beer like beer fest too the tella dega edition
is what that is right here here is my question here comes the angle like Kyle horton
when is Jared Goff going to go to Detroit like as late as possible like that that's what I'm asking
like it does would he say like well might as well just may get yeah yeah okay
because when is matt when is mad stafford going to go to the rams michigan's beautiful in the summer
sure um matt stafford should go to l.A. now because this is the best time of year to be in
Los Angeles oh 100% well at least in non-COVID times is Matt staffer going to go to L.A.
and just kind of wander around, like, oh, I've made a mistake.
Why?
I've done things wrong.
Why?
Like, in delaying his arrival?
Right, right.
Not getting there a decade ago?
Yeah, he's going to touch down and be like, oh, I athlete it wrong.
I've done everything incorrectly.
Should have considered Arizona State, my ma'am.
He also made a shitload of money, too, though, so, like.
He made a lot of money.
He's fine.
But, like, I saw his house in.
Detroit, the one that he is selling.
And that's not where he lived.
And the chances are he's going to pull up in some condo in Malibu or in like Venice Beach or I don't know.
Oh, he's absolutely not going north of Manhattan Beach.
Yeah.
Wherever he pulls up, he's going to be like, because Matt Stafford is from Texas, he went to school at Georgia.
He, um...
He's actually going to live in San Diego, which is the Jacksonville of California, as we have
previously determined oh this is this is a man who was already helicopter to work this is a man
who was already predisposed by i live to i live near the beach i think in terms of
matthew stafford um making his way to l.A to play football it's always difficult to judge because
teams are coming and going all the time like say if he was like i'm going to join the raiders
when i lives in Vegas which i think that also fits matt stafford just fine but it's it's difficult
to time a jump to an NFL franchise and in specific that specific
town. What if the lions moved to L.A.? Huh? Uh? Come on. Sure? Sure. Then we can go
feedback. He had Jared. Kings of the town. The L.A. Lynx. I know there's already a lynx.
Don't at me. Yeah. This was another question I had just based on this because you think you go,
oh man, the lions have wasted so much talent. Because it's not entirely Matt Stafford's fault when
you look at a franchise that had Calvin Johnson and Barry Sanders.
And as far as I know, oh, not entirely.
Trust me, Jared Goff is about to learn how not Matt Stafford's fault it was.
It's super not entirely.
Like, if you're Jared Goff, do you just start filling out like LSATs now?
Yes.
Do you just like, like, hey, what am I thinking about post career?
I should just start looking into some interests.
Leave while you still have your looks.
I think you try to get mono.
Still get paid.
not a super serious disease what if you just have dnf sleepy did not play kind of sleepy
dnf lines i you know not feeling it that would be the best thing to look on the injury
report and to hear troy eightman say yeah golf got up this week don't know if he's going to go
he's sleepy oh that's that's that's that's that's what it is dnf slept funny
Just be like, I don't know, man, my neck has, ooh, ah.
Every time they say it, yeah, you got to cock your head about 45 degrees to the side.
Ah!
Ugh.
Oh, just driving here was misery, brother.
Let me tell you.
I don't think I should go out there.
I think you should put Chad Henny in, lying and signed him for 40 mil a year.
After making one pass for the chiefs.
Could you fill out?
Could you go with DNF, D&S, did not sleep?
Oh, yeah, sure.
what was up and i was just up watching attack on titan all night i couldn't sleep it's crazy
i really also was thinking this though that like okay the lions are real bad
and we have free riders in the system we have like in the pros like in college we get some of
this too there are now thanks to tv teams that don't have to try frankly vanderbilt's been one
Vanderbilt for every dollar they get off a TV contract the fraction paid out toward actually investing in football it's low it's low just look at the facilities look at who they've hired they do not they roll nickels around like hubcaps in Nashville and they do not spend like other SEC programs based on the actual amount of money they're getting and yet they get the same amount of money off that TV contracts everybody else
it's not like they split it up any different so in the NFL who are teams that are clear free
riders who are just not even trying to put product out on the field just cash in a check because for
a long time and i think continuing to the present that's the chargers chargers no i strongly
disagree with that i strongly disagree with that no the chargers the chargers are the cautionary
tale. The Chargers have tried so hard to be good. The Chargers are the greatest argument against
trying. Yes, yes. The Chargers are not coasting. The Chargers have worked so hard, drafted
really well, like mostly hired well, tried to make good choices, and just had the worst
fucking string of luck in the world. No, the Chargers are the opposite of the team you're talking
about. So who's not trying, if I'm wrong about the Chargers?
This foam this in completely.
This year was probably the first exception, but the dolphins really just have not.
The dolphins, no, absolutely not for years.
Well, because the dolphins had a player-level diamond hand situation, right?
Yes.
Like, hey, we drafted you to suck, and they're like, hold!
Never!
We're never giving up, even though we should.
The Rams also have some stuff.
Donk energy.
Do we do the sensible thing?
Do we draft 10 players per year?
Nope.
All in.
We're not drafted until 2026.
The Broncos have major.
What are we doing?
Hey, what's up?
What's up guys?
We're doing what?
You need a check?
All right, cool.
Energy.
Like, the bears.
What's?
Yeah, the bears might be here.
I think the most phoning it in NFL team is the Washington.
to a football team.
Sure.
Because, I mean, ultimately, it comes down to one guy's bad ideas.
And, like, how hard can you try when you know you're going to be foiled no matter what?
It was like a Jay Gruden quote recently where he's like, yeah, man, we did all our due diligence,
we scouted all the guys, we'd be real excited to draft somebody, the coaches would give
their input to the scouts, the GM would be there, and then Dan Snyder'd rolling off his yacht
and make the pick.
Dwayne Haskins!
Bye!
See you tomorrow.
That's Mr. Snyder's word.
My work here is done, but you didn't do anything.
Ted and I.
Beams back to the...
Oh, the Bengals.
The Bengals definitely fit this mold, too.
Like, I get that they took Joe Burrow, but, like,
the Bengals will only do something when they have no choice but to do something.
Like, if they thought they could have got away with just not showing up to the draft
and letting somebody else take Joe Burrow and just show up.
like three hours later like oh sorry guys geez i was watching ken burns baseball and it was so
mesmerizing it's like when you it's like when you hear about somebody who's at death store
becoming a vegan that's what the bengals are they only did it because it's their last choice like
i don't know guess it's just spirulina from here on out nothing wrong with a little spirulina
Otherwise, I'm dead.
Fine, I'll take Joe Burrow.
If you make me.
I think the Jets are here.
And the Jets are here.
Like, for all of this, Washington's Voivoli Center on somebody who is trying too hard.
It's centering on somebody who thinks they have a great idea.
No one in the Jets organization has any good ideas and doesn't even attempt to have them.
They just have bad ones.
like yeah we should do this isn't it a terrible
idea I hate this franchise
yes
we should totally do this terrible thing
they're phoning it in
yeah the Texans
I think the Texans are going
the Texans are I think they are
trying to be bad
right like there is
effort here it's it's the
complete wrong direction because you couldn't be
this disastrous
on accident.
I think this is what it must have been like to be like one of the last Radio Shack managers doubling
down and be like, if we stick to the corporate plan, Radio Shack will rise from the ashes.
Diamond Hanks, Radio Shack.
These internet businesses are not long for this world.
The customers trust us to have weirdly labeled batteries and none of the things they actually need.
We're the Texans, God damn it.
The Texans also have the dim kid in charge of things.
How much would it suck if you're in a rich family?
And it's, hey, you, older brother, you're in charge of the financial stuff.
You, the daughter, we're putting you in charge of the oil.
Yeah, the oil.
You go do the oil.
Cal, you, yeah, go walk the cats.
You go walk the cats and run the NFL franchise that gets a check no matter what it does.
We don't have cats.
Better go find the cats, buddy.
Oh boy
Looks like you're behind already
So dad
Deshawn Watson is unhappy
Question one
Who is Deshawn Watson
Question two
What does he do
That's where the Texans are at
You know
I like that
My favorite model is the Bucks
Because being run by the
Glazers for so long
Was basically this
They did the
Marlins thing where they're like, we're good.
We've stripped it bare.
Yeah.
We've sold everything off.
We're going to be bad for a decade.
And right at the point where they were about to flatline, they're like, spend money.
Tom Brady.
Tom Brady, get back in the boat.
Get back in the boat.
We're back.
We're good again.
We're definitely not using this as a shelter for the losses we're incurring on still not
being able to pay for Manchester United 20 years ago.
It's definitely not what we're doing.
Like, who is that in college football?
Who's just like coasting in a major conference?
And besides the entire Pact 12.
Oh, man.
So Randy Orton was one of the first you guys come in the Royal Rumble, all right?
He came seconds away from doing the strategy that I have called for in a blog post of leaving the ring.
doing absolutely nothing for an hour,
showing up and winning.
He hit Edge with the move and everything,
but an edge through him out, edge one.
Randy Orton nearly did the greatest stupid wrestle of all time.
Kyle's brother.
Kyle's brother almost got it.
Yeah.
Orton in with his signature move, the 12-pack.
Randy Orton, born in Knoxville.
Didn't know that.
Knoxville is just...
He's billed as being from St. Louis.
He's an SEC East man through and through.
Yep.
built oh god imagine like having an option and still claiming nope it's st louis put me down for
st louis please put me down for st louis the half empty city that's got an extremely dangerous
kids museum i think i think of i think in college football vandy's the one that i could think of
i'm like yeah you're because like wake forest is the vanity of the acc and they're trying
wake forest tries real hard and they manage stuff real well so they at least try vandy the administration
does not try they phone they phone that business in like the big 12 here's the thing about
the big 12 that's kind of sad nobody's figured out that they could just pick up a check and the
big 10 that's Illinois is basically there no they got burnt they got burnt
they got burnt so Illinois is phoning it in
hard all the time you watch he's going to he's going to have one amazing season and and just
coast on that forever what is amazing at illinois uh eight wins amazing at what oh okay
eight and six eight and six rose bowl season again yep that's that's that's that's the thing
like i cannot believe i really cannot believe like that that's i don't i can't see him winning eight
games if he won seven games he would be the first coach since ronsuk to do that
that's where illinois is at when you go man you know who looks good after all of these
additional years of illinois football since paying attention as somebody writes about it ronzook who
Who looks better year in and year out?
That's right.
Rose Bowl participant Ron Zuck.
Got there.
I mean, if Purdue can have a good year
and Northwestern can somehow win the division every year,
Illinois can rise up and have an eight win year.
Somewhere in the next decade or two.
And yet, yeah.
I don't know if anyone in the Big Ten outside of Illinois
really like hardcore phoning in i don't know if anyone the SEC outside of andy's really phoning it
is is duke here on a football play in a football place they might be right like i know it wasn't
all that long ago although it was kind of long ago that they they won the division but they
haven't like duke football hasn't been a thing in years three or four coming on that like i
I love Gutcliffe.
He's cool.
I don't know how much support he's getting.
I mean, a good half the ACC is phoning it in at any point.
That's kind of the whole brain.
Or like the ATT.
I don't know.
That's my honest answer.
Is that like, do I know if the ACC is trying real hard and they're at max queue?
Like, they're at the total maximum capacity here?
or are they phoning it in?
I refuse to believe that there's some kind of sleeping giant
under Boston College.
And Boston College, at least like,
Boston College is the kind of school
where you can't just coast forever.
They showed that.
They got rid of the guy who did that
and hired somebody who seems to be a better coach.
Or you can't just coach forever
because let's not remember how they got the first guy.
There you go.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Word play.
like syracuse i don't like i that's about as good as syracuse can be i'm pretty sure they're
you know like not far from what we're seeing as like typical 21st century of syracuse performance
i don't know if there's that much capacity to be good but is that so so you're saying that's not
that's not coasting that's recognizing that's accepting reality and not spending like a madman in spite of it
Well, spending enough, right, so that you're going,
okay, I don't feel like this is.
What if you were the bills, but you didn't pay people?
Sure.
That's Syracuse.
The bills.
Right?
The bills any other year but this year.
That's Syracuse.
That's a hard, you know.
Get it?
Wow.
You did it.
I didn't do it.
I'm so good.
I'm just pointing.
Sure.
Where you're just like, our world revolves around Doug Marone.
That's number one.
Sure.
Yeah.
As opposed to every SEC program where you go like, if you sort of had a factor in your head that you go, okay, I know every program is, if I look at every program and I say, I think you are trying this percent too hard.
You are spending this percent too much above realistic expectations.
How many SEC programs are redlined way over there?
South Carolina.
That line is orange, sir.
Sorry.
Wait, you're just saying that
because Kevin Steele made $900,000
to work for 10 days or whatever.
You know what it did allow, though?
Finesse! Fenez!
I think in the SEC it's literally
almost all of them
that are trying way too hard.
And I don't, and I mean,
Bama's trying too hard.
You know what I mean?
need to focus a little less on macklin a little more on tackling boys yeah like as a
i'm sorry i've been watching ted lasso again like the full percentage like if you look at the
full athletic budget as a portion of overall expenditures at alabama it is so far above everyone
else's and that's both because alabama is not actually that large a university
and because they spend a disproportionate amount of money on football like as a percentage of total
it is not so much alabama spends on football it's not that much more than say uh what texas or
ohio state spends but ohio state and texas both as a factor uh as like entities are so much bigger
than little old university of alabama just by endowment and by like student body size it's
nuts like every
he sounds like dabbo
little old bama
and just little yeah
little old bama over there
Clemson's right there too
like Clemson's there in terms of like
disproportionately large spending
the one thing you cannot
accuse Clemson of is not
trying hard enough
because they're trying way too hard
I think we should get more slanderous
with this
I think
I appreciate you know
I don't know where you're going with this
but I agree
I am loving where this is going.
I appreciate the thoughtfulness, but also like, let's, like, I don't know, just say
Miami's not trying hard enough.
Just say it.
Doesn't that feel good?
Miami's not trying hard enough to be a good football team because they don't care.
Look at that.
What I just said.
I think it's because they don't have any note-worthy moments in their history and they
don't have enough of a history to stand on.
Correct.
That's probably the problem.
Yep.
their history is listening to wisconsin and bowl games that's all i remember miami wasn't good enough in the 80s to be good now you need a stable successful base right yeah so i like i like the notion by the way that when you say you're not trying hard enough what is one mean by that at miami miami wasn't willing to give larry cocker what he needed to succeed let's just say it
If I really wanted to make Miami fans mad, I would use the same sentence, but changed to Al Golden.
Al Golden was not given tools to succeed at the University of Miami.
Randy Shannon just needed more time.
He told you not to store Al Golden in direct sunlight and look what happened.
That's right.
He's like half melted now.
He needs indirect sunlight and a lot of water.
He produces his own water based on the shirt texture.
Yeah, he needs carbon dioxide.
Yeah, I think the indirect sunlight part is the issue we're having here with Miami.
Just say whatever.
Just say like, you know, Michigan doesn't believe in being good at football.
Michigan doesn't, you just, with the bad academics at Michigan, you just can't recruit.
You're only going to get dummies.
Hockey factory Michigan.
So focused.
Because they can't read.
I talked to a Michigan dad over the weekend, whose name I will, whose name I will.
whose name I will eskew
in Michigan, I know I
used that word wrong, don't tell me
but who
the subject of child rearing came up and he said
you know I've only slapped my kid one time
I said was he fighting
was he you know
did he hit you first
what happened he's like no
we were in a history museum and I just thought he was being
really disrespectful
these mummies
not in front of the sarcophagy guy
These mummies have come 10,000 years, and they're not here to be disrespected by you young man.
You pay their desiccated, brainless corpses.
You stop laughing at that codpiece.
You don't know what the king's penis looked like.
Do you, smart guy?
Stop laughing at the name King Nuts in Hand.
King Nuts in Hand.
He meant a lot to his people.
You know who else had his nuts in hand?
Bo Schembeckler.
That's right.
Hey, Ryan, you know what's almost a nut, kind of?
An acorn.
An acorn.
Gosh, that reminds me of saving and investing.
Much like purchasing GameStop stonk.
You know, once I complete my winnings from GameStop,
I'm going to turn right around and invest that handsome pile in Acorns.com.
It is, the number here is not quite as large as my number in my GameStop stock, so that'll be a nice boost.
Currently, all I have in this world is my GameStop stock.
So, better hope that, better hope I happen to press the button right when it's at the appropriate amount.
Because if not, Acorns is going to be, acorns, you're going to be all I got in this world.
Nevertheless, that's fine, because acorns will see me through.
Acorn's very easy to save and invest.
Start yourself off with a little $5 kickstart,
Acorns.com slash full cast,
and then you just let the money trickle in.
It's kind of the obvious opposite of the GameStop experience
where it's like the second-to-second roller coaster
and the bare-knuckle thrill ride
where you're like, oh, thank God it's the weekend.
I don't have to look at the line every five minutes
just to make sure I haven't missed the big explosion.
No, you don't have to look at acorns at all.
It's a nice, steady, easy line.
It's a total opposite of the stonks experience.
So once we're all done with this mayhem,
we can do the simple, boring thing.
Game Stunk is.
Acorns is going to come down as your mighty oak tree of,
acorns is going to serve as your come down
as your mighty oak tree of savings.
Does what, Spencer?
Grows.
Goes up.
It goes up.
So GameStonk is like.
He looks really eager.
I thought I'd give him a shot.
Well, no, I was going to say.
Don't do that.
Don't do that.
No, you're right.
Acorns do what?
Acorns grow trees.
Trees become mighty oaks.
All right.
Mighty oaks are the thing that give you what?
Eventually they sink, they become carbon, and what does that carbon do when it's placed under enough pressure?
Diamond hands.
It's all part of a cycle that allows you to have the diamond hands that you need when you are living the stonk life and you are going to the moon.
On the other hand, the balance that keeps you there.
those little acorns keeping the force going.
Yeah. GameSunk is the Apollo rocket that you are strapped to,
hoping beyond hope that you will reach the moon,
and acorns is your loving family on Earth,
watching you on the TV and loving you the whole time.
Yeah.
It's the tree you plant once you arrive on the moon.
They say that won't work.
But how do they know?
But how do they know?
They say a lot of things, boys.
Yeah, they've never tried it.
They had to be tempted to piss on the moon, right?
That had to be an overwhelming temptation.
I don't know.
Wait, wait, wait.
Are you telling me if you even look like?
Buzz probably.
I don't think Neil is far too Midwestern for that.
Sure.
Right.
I'll take a larky.
I'll go behind the lander and take a shit on the moon like a grown man.
No, Neil can't show his dick that close to God.
Neil's going to take a walk for like five hours just so he can
be sure nobody's looking yeah buzz however will yes buzz will try to hit earth yeah and make it
buzz will buzz will be like turn the camera this way it's the most beautiful thing i've ever seen
watch this i'm gonna get kentucky hey collins hey collins hey collins hey collins hey collins hey what else is in this
photo it's one big shit for man and one real big shit for me
pale blue dot one weird white thing sticking out of my suit be in at michael collins if we if
if we don't you know kill ourselves off as a species somebody will be the first person to piss on the
moon right yeah somebody's got somebody's like i know buzz aldrin asked hey so what would
what would a vacuum what would the effect of a cold vacuum be on my my junk but if i hold it real
He would say Johnson, right?
He strikes me as a Johnson, man.
Let's assume I'm holding my Johnson super tight.
Not like a seven iron, mind you.
Like really death grip in the thing.
So as I understand, you'd be fine for like 30 to 60 seconds.
Sure.
And I think so like I'm not an astrophysicist, forgive me.
But I believe liquid actually ejecting out of your body would likely help ensure the vacuum is not going in.
the liquid would be pushing the vacuum back out
so you'd be peeing the space out of your body.
So I think that perhaps you'd have like long time damage.
Would you have to burp your dick like a Tupperware?
You probably have to get the bubble.
I think you'd have to get the bubbles out.
Yeah.
There might be some chunks in there,
but some chunks of, you know, like dark matter.
Space is full of dark matter.
Sure.
It's like, you know, the invisible stuff we can't see,
but we know it's there.
Well, like, what if it gets in your dick, right?
This is the kind of thing you have to think about.
That is what Neil Armstrong is thinking about when he's, like, staring off.
He's thinking about the dark matter in his dick.
Can I give you one perhaps cautionary tale?
No.
About pissing on the moon?
What could be more cautionary?
Hey, Spencer.
What the fuck good is a cautionary tale to this bunch?
NASA didn't listen to the cautionary tales that said don't fucking light a giant thing of gas on fire.
go to the moon.
So the temperature on the moon is
260 degrees Fahrenheit and direct
sunlight. Is that good? Well,
we'll turn.
Cast a shadow.
Why do you think they train in Florida, asshole?
Nobody's saying like, go
to Houston in July and pee
on the side of the highway. So you know what you
just did? You just put the idea in Buzz's
head. Now he's not going to try to pee on the
moon or the earth. That man's going to try to pee out
the sun. Piss on the sun.
He's never going to die. I'm going to put
out your fault he's just sitting there with this junk in front of a toaster oven going
iron dick training gonna do it buzz is staring at the sun like what are you looking at shiny
diamond hands so i yeah i i you could you could survive like 60 seconds of part of your body
exposed space i do not think that applies if your organs are bared in front of the naked
sun do not if if you try that i am not accountable for
for what happens to you.
Just this once, I'm on Neil's side.
It got superpowers when I exposed it.
Don't show your dick that close to God.
I'm reminded specifically of the part of the
nature documentary Deep Blue Sea
where Saffron Burroughs goes,
as a side effect,
the sharks got smarter.
Tom Hanks, if you're listening to this show,
please let us know if you think astronauts can piss on the moon.
So you know,
and well in that they go where do they go right they go to dark side of the moon we lose
contact who knows what they did over there that's right they got up to
Tom Hanks was back there for 45 minutes yeah those fellows they shat on the moon
prove they didn't you can't just just hung my butt out
did it did it did it as we were landing that's how bad I had to go
that's my my still better than your idea of diarrhea in the ocean
that wasn't my idea
yes it was that was
you're the one that said the continental shelf holds all our poop
no spencer was the one that said it was fun spencer was the one that said it was fine to shit in the ocean
by your own admission you don't remember anything you say on this show that doesn't mean
you can use it against me and turn spencer's words into mine it seems like it does
because you've really exposed yourself as if you were trying to shit on the moon here i want to be clear i want to be clear i know this is a trick to get me to listen to the show and i won't do it smart uh this is like the only thing i love more than this is the soviets like lunar expedition where the guy would have had to have gotten out of his capsule to get into the lunar module while it was in orbit right just like yeah like he he would have had to mission impossible that shit
right that to me would be the best possible like moment to attempt to crap on the moon right because you're already out of there
trench and analysis you're just like here I'm just going to drop it and I'm going to watch my poop hit the moon at a speed of like 5,000 miles an hour
what an inspiring moment for the soviet people yeah why do you think they sent monkeys first yeah so we could practice the importance also also remember that mission was supposed to be solo one guy
going to the moon so he could be by himself, which is perfect because who's going to stop him,
right? They'd be like, this is why all the astronauts were fathers, right? Because nobody else
is going to understand this. Dimitri, what are you doing? No one can stop me. Not one man in
Soviet Union can stop me from pooping on moon. The promo code, fullcast for acorns, by the way.
Ah, acorns.com slash fullcast. Fullcast. Get your $5.5.5.
deposit. The plans, I'm on the family plan. It's doing great. Got two little tycoons
coming and they don't even know it. Just inching along. Then when we put that game stonk money
in there, bam, bam, it's going to be something real special happening. And then you got to worry
about them being too entitled. Not a problem. Not a problem. They didn't need money for that.
Give my kids a dollar and they're already too entitled.
So technically everything we just said is part of an ad read, right? Sure.
Okay, yeah.
Acorns, welcome to the full cast family.
We'd love to tell you it's not always like this,
but we don't tell lies on this show.
Not one.
I mean, poop is excellent fertilizer.
Connor and Homefield, that wasn't a home field read.
It could have been you, and it wasn't.
This time.
Yeah, you're welcome.
So let's close this thing down tonight with a little game.
Speaking of, you know, people come to the show for financial advice,
and they long have.
They have long trusted us.
as far as, you know, investing in their retirement, telling them which clothes to buy, you know, which socks to wear, assorted other things like that, with GameStunk in the news and with everyone turning to the dumbest people on the internet to ask for advice in what to invest in next.
This is my favorite thing about Wall Street bets. Everyone shows up, shows up like, all right, all right, you geniuses, what's the next moneymaker?
It's like, no. All we do is post how terrible we are at investing. We caught this one insane game.
but but let us not lose heart it is still there there will be another game stop just you wait and see
i think the key is not you know you can look at oh there was the short float percentage and all
that stuff that no no no the key is game stop was a mall company that is the key the great
american mall will come back it will be back don't give up in the mall think of the the am radio guy and
hot rod that's you with your mall tattoo uh so here's the game here's that's going to work
we are going to each draft a handful of mall stocks and then we will circle back at the end
of the off season and college football begins to see who has gained the most percentage wise
all right uh i do not i do not have a draft order so whoever wants to go first feel free to go
me i'm going first look at that uh before i because i know we're all looking right now
Don't forget that Cabellas was sold to Bass Pro Shops, which is a privately traded company.
Okay.
Because I know that what you're thinking, which is a lot of Cabellas are attached to malls.
Yeah.
My first stock pick is going to be Bath and Body Works, which I believe is owned by L Brands,
which is the same company that has Victoria's Secret.
But Bath and Body Works, if we're counting from now to the end of the year, sells three categories of item
that I would say are particularly
important during
these uncertain times.
They sell hand sanitizer.
They sell lotion
for your cracked ass hands
and they sell
candles. Candles!
Candle game.
We are all journaling and
candling our way through this.
All right, who's next?
Spencer, why don't you go next?
Oh, easy pick here, baby.
We're going Tanger Outlets.
Tanger Outlet.
Smart.
I love it.
Wait, you can't buy a mall.
You can't an actual mall.
Oh, here we go.
Here we go.
We have a dispute.
We have a dispute.
All right.
Hartzell.
So there's a two votes each.
Hartzl, you have the cast the vote.
All right.
Does buying literal outlet malls
count as a mall stock?
Yes, it does.
Fuck.
Fuck.
Hartzell, the chaos agent.
I have to be honest, Tanger was on my list as well.
Okay.
All right.
All right, all right.
Okay, so that's, yeah, that's, that's, uh, that's stock code SKT.
Go ahead, lock that in.
I'm getting Tanger Outlets.
All right, right.
Because you know what?
Because you know what?
As long as there are people who are driving and who go, hey, I'm just going to pull off and buy four pairs of caches.
Yes.
Tanger Outlets is just going to keep, keep cashing in, man.
As long as people who are like, let's go see if they got any $7 shoes.
Have I ever told Al about hosting a bunch of Georgia fans and,
Los Angeles who were coming out for a bowl game and I asked them where they were staying
and they all said commerce and I was like well that's where because commerce is like way inland
from the beach it's a little bit south of town but you know what's in commerce
the closest outlet molded that show I live listen as long as the SEC is still around
tanker outlets is going to be banking it and it's it's called it's called the citadel
outlets so you know they felt right at home because that's their that's their favorite
cupcake walk anyway all right it's good
It's good.
Anyway, carry on.
Must, must buy stock code, I regret this already,
BBW, build a bear workshop.
Wow.
These kids-
Ryan's B-B-B-B-W episode, everybody.

for a long time they have like like a lot a lot of stocks you're looking at like how are they
going to come out of pandemic chipotle had barreled through the pandemic they're they're the
cockroach of restaurants well that's that's the only risk all right digital is going great
uh roadside ordering their tests now got new menu items the cauliflower rice is

curb side pickup.
What did I say?
Oh, I was like, I assumed.
I thought it was like,

Now that I'm on the board at Chipotle,
I'm going to tell about like you can just drive past
and scream what we want.
Here's what happens.
Vindisi shoots a harpoon into your car.
The kids selling water bottles at the intersection
over by the grocery store are now just going to be
hawking burritos.
Yeah.
Hey, they're entrepreneurial.
Yeah, the squeegee kid comes out with some quack.
And who wouldn't.
like that the only my only worry is you're going to have some you know you're going to have a little bit
of a risk of some light seasonal salmonella there might be a flare of samanella shirt you know
every now and then there's just a little bit of spark of some samanella that's fine just weather

Velke is banquished.
Coles, not looking Coles, they can move in on Belk's corners.
Everything else in the mall's clearing out.
Coles can expand.
Like, Coles is positioned to dominate the mall now.
They aren't just surviving.
They are ready to, Coles to the moon.
Here we go.
Next up Ryan again.
Cheesecake Factory.
Wow.

exact same reason. People are going to go, once it gets to the relevant sort of age group,
people are going to go straight from their second Moderna shot, straight to Cheesecake Factory.
With their semi money in it. No, you're so right. Cut out the middle man. Put it on the menu.
You got room. Put the vaccine on page 58. Give me a whole, give me three pages of vaccine. Oh,
they got Snickers vaccine. That sounds good. Yeah. Put it in my arm. Cheesecake vaccine.

Listen, you laugh, but if we put out a lemon pepper vaccine.
Oh, shit.
Right?
Right.
Yeah, Cheesecake Factory had like a little bit of a down week because it's not Game Stunk, but has done well in the last six months.
So I think cheesecake line go up.

That's impossible.
They make way bigger.
They are planning to double their sales in men's garments this year.
So there's going to be dudes and Lulu Lemon all over.

Holly, I believe you have the next two picks.
All right.
I am going with,
and I think I might accidentally
Riverside Spencer here,
I'm going with Ulta.
which is has taken a beating recently as uh as businesses like brow threading uh and and hair styling
have obviously taken a hit during the covid lockdowns however ulta is like your uh your moderately
mid-ranged uh you know bath and skin care and makeup product store that is starting to import
more and more luxury brands and if you're anything like me and if you're on the discord with us over
at moon crew uh we got a skincare discord going where we talk all about it alter is starting to add more
and more luxury brands more japanese beauty brands more korean beauty brands and uh i like i'm
kind of betting on the idea of everyone wanting to pretend that they don't have pores again when we're
finally able to get outside my third and final pick uh is vitamin shop oh that's a good one
because we have been inside without the sun and we're going to need to swallow some pills
rather than see the sun again i think actually i think vitamin stock is only treated on
nasdaq shit can i still use it no that counts that's fine that's a ston that's a stonk all stonks
pay i didn't know if we were if we were being such cosmopolitans as to confine ourselves to
the new york stock exchange only give me spencer throw me a dk only stock here really get weird with
i can't but i can get a little weird because i have to pick a parent company in order to pick
the store i want them all because i have to tell you that i'm putting dual brands new brands
traded on the nsdak and on the nysi we need newel brands because are we starting to
these counts tomorrow by the way yeah on monday okay and i need newel brands and i need it for this
reason new brands owns a bunch of things like exacto and they own a bunch of like stationary stuff
but one brand they own that i think is key and is evergreen and bulletproof much to my personal
chagrin they own yankee candle and if i know if i know one thing that americans love
it's huge
shitty candles
I'm just piggybacking off
my back of the body works idea
enormous shitty
candles
that's
I think people are going to be buying
a lot of huge
shitty candles
so I'm going to go ahead
and put Newell Brands in there
I think we're just ahead of the game
for candlemas
which is on Tuesday
okay
my last pick
I'm not going to go with Samsonite
I thought about going with Sam's Night.
I'm not going to because if you're going to go to cheese
out by like internet luggage brands anyway, aren't there?
There's a little bit of that, yeah.
But you know who isn't?
Signet Jewelers Limited, the company that owns and operates,
Zales, Jared, and K jewelers.
Because what are you going to do when you go fucking ball out at the Cheesecake Factory?
You are going to propose.
So that's what I'm picking from my third place.
mall jeweler titan signet jewelers
all right
I will close it down with a similar
I think we'll have at least three in a row
that are multi-brand conglomerates
I'm going with Esselor Luxottica
Oh I know what this is
Well this is the eyeglasses monopoly
That owns Lincrafters Rayban Oakley on it on it on and on
Sunglass Hut
Sunglass Hut
It owns all of it.
Their stock trend is hilarious.
For the last four years, it has been higher in August than in January.
It goes up.
Like, you would think people would think, oh, I just buy the stock and just write it for several years.
No, people think, huh, all right, to buy sunglasses today.
I'm going to buy some sunglasses stock.
The stock goes up in the summer, like it's a fucking winter coat on sale.
Like, so I'm, yeah, sun go up, line go up.
Okay.
I got to tell you there was one thing I was looking for that I didn't find in my search for stocks stocks to draft that I was very disappointed in there's really no like settled national brand for that one store that sells like rain sticks and swords and weird little fountains oh sure it feels it feels very weird to be celebrating mall culture on this show and not have a purveyor of swords if you know of a national chain selling swords marshals contact me
or just some pictures of the swords to stephen godfrey actually yeah
hot topic never selling swords y'all are such you know i gave a big long thing to hot topic because
the 90s are back right my favorite wallet chip wallet so i cannot be that far from coming back
hot topic they went public uh a few years ago and then they just said now we're done with that in like
2013 no just stop looking at us we don't it doesn't need to be hot topics talk the store that
i really wanted to purchase but could not because they are french as sephora because i thought
they're privately held right privately held and they are traded only on the parisian exchange
sephora also partnership with coals again excellent second round pick by me
So for, I feel like Alta's going to be the better pick there than Sephora because I had that same impulse myself, but Sephora has had some real bad PR recently in terms of the kind of people they chase around the store and the kind of people they don't chase around the store.
And also they're kind of getting snaked by Alta, which is in lower rent malls, but as I said, is starting to lay in more luxury brands.
And then if they branch into swords, game over.
If Sephora branched into swords, I would never fucking.
and shop anywhere else.
Cool it on the racism and get some swords.
Siforda?
I'm going to work on this.
Sward for a.
We'll workshop it.
Okay.
Sword glass hut.
So what if it was like Sifwa?
Hmm.
Cheese sword factory.
There we go.
Go back and body swords.
Build a sword.
Oh,
fuck if build a bear added swords casually to the oh man i'd crush all of you listen to how excited
ryan is over the idea of bbws with swords i mean and we're back to the renfair good night everybody
