Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome back to another Spit Hits on this episode. It's a good one. Oh, it's a hit. It's a hit. You're going to love it. Would you rather? Look, Jason turns himself into a high-salaried moocher. Not surprised.
Starting point is 00:00:15 Yeah, I'm not surprised in the slightest. And in this situation, we find ourselves chasing meerkats, running from clowns. Oh, and if you remember this one, living out the rest of our days as an ocean animal. Oh, this is a classic. We find out how long certain animals live in the ocean, and it gets a little messy, as well as another fantastic battle royal draft. Stay tuned.
Starting point is 00:00:49 What happens when three buffoons give life advice, explore unrealistic situations, and give random topics more thought than they probably deserve? It's the Spitballers Podcast with Andy, Mike, and Jason. I'm on a caravan named Scooby-Doo. That was just vomit. I mean, I applaud stepping out on the... I mean, Mike, you should speak to this. You're the scat man. The landing was incredible. Flipping into Scooby-Doo.
Starting point is 00:01:25 I don't even know what the start was. I would have to go back in time to, what did I say? It makes me imagine somebody saying 36 words at the same time. That's what comes out. But the beginning was just so loud. Was it? So, yeah, I'm on tilt from, you know, just the world of sports. And so, like, we're like, oh, are you ready to scat?
Starting point is 00:01:52 It's like, oh, yeah, I'm supposed to scat today. And then Andy's like, we're going. Yep. I wanted that to happen, I think. That's what you got. I think I bought a cat and named him Scooby-Doo. Yes. Believe those.
Starting point is 00:02:03 I bought a cat Scooby-Doo. Might have been a car. I'm not sure. But I bought something and I named him Scooby-Doo. Welcome into the Spitballers podcast. Andy, Mike, and Jason with you again. Would you rather? On the show today, we'll enter the situation room.
Starting point is 00:02:20 Oh, and it's serious this week, fellas. You've taken a little sneak peek? I've previewed what we're about to face. Serious situations? and it's serious this week. Is it? You've taken a little sneak peek? I've previewed what we're about to face. Serious situations? And it's intense. I have not, so I'm excited. And then we've got another draft, and we are doing another Battle Royale, and I will not tell you
Starting point is 00:02:35 more than that until we get there, but it will be fun. You can find us on Twitter at SpitballersPod. We are always excited to get your ideas for segments, your would-you-rather questions, draft ideas. You can also send those to us on our Patreon page. If you're a Spitballers supporter,
Starting point is 00:02:56 you can go over to SpitballersPod.com. It's for sophisticated people. Yeah, spitwads, as they say. The most sophisticated. Let's jump right in. Would you rather. All right. Would you rather.
Starting point is 00:03:15 This one comes in from somebody named Corner Preacher on Reddit. All right. Would you rather earn $100,000 annually, but all your coworkers-workers earn two hundred thousand okay or would you rather earn fifty thousand annually but all of your co-workers only earn twenty five thousand dollars in both cases everyone knows what everyone earns it's like the true the true what's the trolley debate do you guys know what I'm talking about? Like the great philosophical thing of you're running an out-of-control trolley and the track splits and it's like one direction is three people, the other direction is more than that.
Starting point is 00:03:59 It gets a little bit more complicated, but it's a philosophical debate of what do you do when you know you're gonna have more at 50k but 25k i mean that's that's that's not enough to live on that's poverty yes you want to know the problem there is that all these all these people make a 25k they they're gonna be trying to mooch off of you they know plainly that you make double what they make yeah so they're like hey you want to get lunch today you're you're buying or the
Starting point is 00:04:32 other direction where you're like hey come on guys let's go to lunch and none of them can say yes oh yeah see but that's the problem on the other side right is like all your friends want to go like 100,000 that's a lot of money but when you make it 200 maybe you go out to extravagant dinners and, you know, it's like, oh, I, I can't, I can't, I can't hang with you guys. I thought this would, I thought the second part of this was going to be you earn 50 K, but, and everybody does.
Starting point is 00:04:57 And so you're deciding, would you rather, you know, be at the bottom of the totem pole but make double what you know the the number is this is like a little bit of a jealousy analysis situation do you want to be at the top of the bottom right or the bottom of the top right that's i mean that's what this is that's true it's exactly what the question is the only difference is i think if you if the question was actually asked in that way i think it is more difficult than here because here in one of these situations you just you just get more money and so does everybody i feel like a jerk i feel like a jerk if i'm taking 175 000 away from everyone i work with right because you are either at 200 000 at the end of the day you're making making either 50,000 or 100,000.
Starting point is 00:05:45 Right. The only reason to choose 50 is if you want to lord it over everyone else. And is that really a number you can lord over other people? No. I mean, let's be real. Well, I mean, compared to 25, yes. But I think this is difficult. I mean, I think I'll just take the, I'll deal with my pride and I I'll take the $100K.
Starting point is 00:06:05 I'm going to take the $100K, and I'm going to be the moocher. You're still buying lawn. Nice. And now I've got $100K, and I don't have to pay for it. Will you do half the amount of work? The $100K moocher. Yes, the $100K moocher. That's a great salary.
Starting point is 00:06:22 Oh, yeah. I remember growing up every year mooching he has every right to mooch you know the the reality tv shows where at the end you'd win a six-figure job or something like that that that's what this is but i still get to mooch in this situation yeah and that i mean you just your your co-workers make a lot more than you that's all there is to it now do you have a problem doing the same amount of work for half the money? I figured you might do half the work. Yeah, I mean, I'll probably be doing half the work, but guess who's going to get fired first?
Starting point is 00:06:54 It's not going to be me. I only cost the company $100,000. Great point. You got to fire someone. You got to take care of old Jimmy there. He's at $200,000. Yeah, Jimmy. to take care of old jimmy there he's at 200k yeah jimmy so you need to do just less than the 200k people who are doing the least exactly yeah there'll be some 200k bad employees i don't even
Starting point is 00:07:15 have to do as much as them i just have to do near them right because you're so much cheaper exactly mike which are you choosing i'm throwing the Okay. So we're seeing through this one. What kind of a jerk out there would actually choose the 50 in this interview? If someone is listening, if you're listening and you're like, dude, I would totally take the 50, there's a problem there. Does it change for you, Jason? Would you take the 50 if everything is the same, the whole question is the same, but you sit in a very big chair with a crown oh like i've got a throne yes you get a throne well now and you have a crown but everything else is the same that's just what you sit in for work it's clear and kind of like manifested this will not end well while i would love for the joke's sake to take that that would be so much worse than if i could just sit at a desk if i'm making double
Starting point is 00:08:08 and then i'm also put up in like a crown throne area oh my gosh i would i would hate myself as much as everyone else but let's take the flip side you're making double all right let's just say you're a monster and you took that okay Okay. But everyone's doing the same work. Do you feel the need? Oh, do you have to do a lot more? Are you going to be the best? Nah, I don't feel that. Just going to take the money?
Starting point is 00:08:34 I'm just going to take the money and wear the crown, sit on my throne? All right. Bethany from Patreon has another would you rather question for us. Would you rather be shot by a police taser or a police beanbag shotgun? Let's explore this for a moment. I know my answer and it's very easy. The beanbag shotgun is not like getting hit with a beanbag. You know what I mean? It's not like someone's throwing a beanbag
Starting point is 00:09:05 i mean sure but it's made to be a non-lethal bullet right it's made to take someone out incapacitate them and take away their abilities yeah and it's funny when i grew up somehow it got in my head someone had told me that there were salt bullets. Have you ever, like... There are. You can buy, like, a toy gun, and it shoots salt pellets. So the whole, I think the marketing factor is shoot at flies in your house. Well, okay, we have that, actually.
Starting point is 00:09:39 They have it. But I didn't mean that. I meant, like, a bullet that is made of salt so it would create a wound, and then as a kid I thought it would- And then burn more? And then burn more. That's what I thought as a kid. I was like, oh, that's a bad bullet.
Starting point is 00:09:53 Do you want to get hit by the hollow point or the salt burner? Thank goodness there's no salt in this bullet wound. That's what I thought as a kid. And they followed it up with the super soaker with lemon juice. Lemon on my wounds. No. It's a bullet wound. In my head, it was like that was an alternate non-lethal form was the salt bullet.
Starting point is 00:10:18 What's worse? A paintball gun or a beanbag gun? Beanbag. It's got to be. 100%. Because this is like a police officer's. Al Borland. I'm sure you've been shot by a beanbag gun beanbag it's gotta be 100 this is like a police officers al borland i'm sure you've been shot by a beanbag gun before how big are these beanbags i i have not been shot by one i believe they're about three inches or so oh that's a pretty big beanbag look oh that's
Starting point is 00:10:37 gotta hurt there was a there was an mtv show back in our day uh growing up and these fellows did random stunts and you have the donkeys. Yes. Usually the, the, the stunt just involved getting hurt in some fashion. If you've watched, they have definitely done being hit by the beanbag and then they show the aftermath and they show that bruise that they have the next like two days later looking at the bruise no thank you that thing's gonna hurt for a long time and if you get hit wrong you could die from that yes if you get hit in the wrong place yeah 100 right through the neck well no like if you get hit right in the wrong internal organ it's gonna be a problem according to the statistics I have before me, they can severely injure.
Starting point is 00:11:29 They can kill. This is ridiculous. They have caused around one death a year since their introduction. Wow. Well, goodness. Now, that being said. It can break the ribs. That being said, has a taser ever killed somebody?
Starting point is 00:11:43 I mean, I would imagine over the course of time. Maybe someone, if you got like a pacemaker right like i got a little heart condition i get tased then it's just a little one but but back to the question of hand this is me i'm taking the taser i've 50 000 volt electric pulse have you ever been like like have you ever been gotten a real electric shock not on any level that i have note no the only time that i can remember that i got a real electric shock and i don't know how this compares to anything you know when i say real it's it's a question mark air quotes because i don't know how real it was but the the story of how i got it was uh pretty stupid so i was a teenager doing a job where we were...
Starting point is 00:12:27 I stuck a fork in the outlet. You're not far off, Mike. Oh, no. No, but it was... So I had a summer job where I was helping a dad's friend in a painting company. So our job was we'd come in, we'd tape off all the lines, we'd wash the walls with trisodium phosphate, and then he'd come in we'd tape off all the lines we'd wash the walls with uh trisodium phosphate and then he'd come in and paint so i'm washing these walls i've got my rag i've dipped it in the
Starting point is 00:12:52 you know the the tsp water and i'm cleaning these walls and i just with this wet rag i just go right over an outlet i'm just why i'm just wiping wall, and I just wipe with a wet rag right into the outlet, and I got buzzed. Yeah. And it was, at first, I had no idea what happened. I shocked the tar out of me, and it did not feel good. Okay. But I don't know how that compares to-
Starting point is 00:13:22 A taser? A taser. Okay. But I don't know how that compares to a taser. A taser. I had a very, very similar situation just with the shock where it was plugging equipment in, plugging a guitar amp into an outlet that's very suspect. And I don't know if my finger went in between the prongs or whatever, but I got it. I got the business.
Starting point is 00:13:42 I don't know if my finger went in between the prongs or whatever, but I got it. I got the business. And it is a very strange sensation where your entire body all of a sudden is revolting. It says, no, I don't work anymore. But I'll take the taser, and I'll experience the couple seconds of pain. There was a video I saw the other day of a very unlucky gentleman, and it was late at night, and he was walking his dog.
Starting point is 00:14:06 He got tased and beanbagged. Well, I was just reading that. Yes, that's it at the same time. Right. That would be very unlucky, Mike. You're right. Apparently, there's a high amount of voltage in a taser, but you don't get a high amount of amperage,
Starting point is 00:14:20 and apparently that's the difference between immobilizing you or getting a bolt of lightning. This gentleman was walking his dog in the middle of a parking lot late at night and got struck by lightning on camera oh completely stopped his heart what instant on video instantaneously a car the last car in the parking lot with the last three people at this entire business park pulls up, instant CPR, saves his life, and he goes on his way. I really hoped you were going to say he pulled out the jumper cables. He pulled out a taser. Pulled out a taser, shot the guy. The heart was stopped, so he pulled out the jumper cables.
Starting point is 00:14:59 That would have actually. Wouldn't it work in reverse if the guy's been electrocuted? It's like, oh, good, my car battery's dead. Let me hook up to this guy. And then you drive away. I got to charge. This guy's full of juice. I mean, he doesn't need more.
Starting point is 00:15:18 That would be such an insult to injury of like, oh, check this out. He just got struck by lightning. insult to injury of like, oh, check this out. He just got struck by lightning. You saw a resource on the ground. Yeah. A charged battery. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:34 Exactly. Oh, thank goodness this guy's alive and well. Now, do either of you guys. I'm going to take the taser. I think the other one's going to hurt too much. Unless you promise me I can get a beanbag to the booty. And then I might take the beanbag. No way, man. It's going to hurt to sit. Unless you promise me I can get a beanbag to the booty. And then I might take the beanbag to the booty. No way, man. It's going to hurt to sit for days.
Starting point is 00:15:47 Yeah, but it's not. The taser, once it's done, it's done. You get a couple marks on you. Yeah, and they have to pull the fish hook out. Yeah. Wait, there's a fish hook? There's not a fish hook. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:58 Yes, how do you think that- That's how they conduct the electricity. How do you think that thing gets in you? Wait, you didn't know this? I thought it touches. Well, there's the cat claws, I think they call it, where they put it up to you. But an actual police taser, it shoots fish hooks out. Two prongs get shot out at you and go into your skin.
Starting point is 00:16:16 Oh, my gosh. It literally looks exactly like a fish hook. Oh, my gosh. So that's why I take a beanbag to the booty. There is part of me. Something I never thought I'd say. There is part of me that actually, like, I couldn't put this to the test. I want to say that I kind of want to be tased.
Starting point is 00:16:37 Let me tell you this. Let me tell you this. I know this because my cousin did it. But they do training. And honestly, I can't speak to what it is if it's police training or what but they take volunteers and you go to be tased and you get tased and they actually your payment is then they give you a taser like a wait what do you mean your payment is they give you a taser so like for being the test subject okay you get a defensive taser to protect yourself.
Starting point is 00:17:07 Taser International is headquartered here in Scottsdale, Arizona, and that's probably what you're talking about. You can go get taser crap out of here. They do testing there, and yeah, you can sign up for it. So I get paid to get tased. My cousin did it. I watched my cousin get tased. And how did he like it?
Starting point is 00:17:22 I don't think he did. Because you go down immediately. You have no control over your body. It's involuntary. You muscle spasms. I'd like to know the rate of repeat volunteers. That's what I want to know. How many tasers do you need? What do you have?
Starting point is 00:17:37 Double? What do you have? Wyatt Earp? I'm saying like on an ongoing basis. Next month they need to test a taser. He's saying you already got your taser You don't need like to collect them It's not like
Starting point is 00:17:50 Collecting figurines here It's not money it's a taser Maybe you're selling But there are people that go sell their blood and their plasma And then they go Maybe you're selling tasers on the side What would it take for you guys to agree to get tased? I would just go do it.
Starting point is 00:18:09 So you're saying if the three of us signed up. We're going to film a YouTube video. I would not. I would not. I would do it. Because there's risk, too. There is risk that if you catch your heart at the wrong beat, you could have a heart attack. I'm not taking that chance.
Starting point is 00:18:20 That's just weeding out the weak. That's fine. You guys get your free tasers. I will say this as we move on to the next question. If you applied the get a taser rule to gun regulation, you probably have a lot less gun owners in the world. Where do you want it? Where do you want it?
Starting point is 00:18:39 You want a gun? All right. Marco from Twitter has another question for us and it's a simple one. Would you rather be a contestant on either jeopardy or wheel of fortune? That's what we have. This question is like, Hey, do you want a chance to win a whole bunch of money or look like a complete idiot on national television? Hold on. Let me think. If I went on Jeopardy, genuinely, this is not a joke, if I got selected for some absurd reason, like I couldn't, but if they made a mistake and I went on,
Starting point is 00:19:14 I would be the first buzz every time. Oh, yeah. I would just try to go as negative as I could go, and I would annoy the... Do you know how much fun it would be, though, if the three of us were the three contestants on a regular Game of Jeopardy? Because it would be first to 100.
Starting point is 00:19:28 I mean, at that point... Yeah. No, here's what would happen. Whoever doesn't ever buzz in would win because they have the most money because they have zero dollars. And the double Jeopardy comes up and we just go, pass. No, thank you. How much would you like to wager?
Starting point is 00:19:44 Zero. Zero dollars, please. No, thank you. That would be... like to wager? Zero. Zero dollars, please. No, thank you. That would be... Who would win out of the three of us? I feel like... That's just trivia. I mean, it's just luck of the category draw.
Starting point is 00:19:54 I have... In my past, I felt very, very good at trivia, but it comes down to the categories. I don't think there are categories I could beat you two at. I am so bad at trivia. So, Mike, if he got anything in the musical realm, feel like you would obviously it'd be over yeah and then i figure you're you got a good retention so general trivia you got good grades right yeah yeah so what is your expertise jason where do you really i don't i don't know apparently it's this liquid you were
Starting point is 00:20:21 talking about you were i'd let it go but you were blowing my mind the way you were throwing out an actual scientific term. Oh, yeah. It's just a cleaner for a wall, TSP. I'm sure Al Borland knows all about it. He does man things. I'm sure Al. I do, but I was very impressed along with Mike that you knew what that was. And not just TSP, but what it actually stands for.
Starting point is 00:20:40 Right. So if the category was... Things you've been electrocuted while spraying on a wall just how to clean walls yes how to clean things used to clean walls oh my gosh then i would take you guys down is that on your resume yes that's that's one of my skills and talents give me wheel of fortune yeah i think we're all in that boat let's move on hey spit wads this summer showing some welcoming signs of maybe a more normal life ahead you know you can get back to some of life's little pleasures mike like smiling at your neighbor to each their own uh seeing a movie and of course mike your favorite thing going to the post office
Starting point is 00:21:19 oh man do i love the post office okay maybe some parts of normal no i do not the post office? Okay, maybe some parts of normal life. No, I do not.

Starting point is 00:22:37 I haven't seen them yet. Let's go. Steven from Twitter, here's the situation. The three of you are at a carnival, things go south and it turns into a horror park. Clowns and stuffed animals come alive. They're trying to kill you. You each have to win one carnival game to get out alive. Who plays what game?
Starting point is 00:23:04 So classic carnival games. You've got like what the milk bottle ring toss. That's a famous one. You've got the long shot basketball, but I always feel like those rims are. Oh, the rims are unfair. PSA. Walk around the side of these hoops, man. You look at the side and those rims are smashed in. Whiffle ball, basket toss, water shooting game, the hammer slam.
Starting point is 00:23:26 Listen, why do we small diatribe, why do we just accept that part of going to a carnival is paying money to not be able to win a game? Because you think you can win. Dang it. I can win. And those hanging stuffed animals that are now
Starting point is 00:23:42 alive and trying to kill you are enticing. Oh, the girlfriend wants the big one. And you're, oh, yeah. If you want to know how pragmatic I am, when I go, I'm like, oh, crap. If I win this, I got to carry that stupid thing the rest of the day. But it's not the, you choose how to look at it. Because either you're on your side of like, man, I have to carry this. It's very inconvenient.
Starting point is 00:24:04 But in the fair, you're on your side of like man i have to carry this it's very inconvenient but in the fair you're the cool person if you're walking around with the big stuffed animal oh you're the big cheese that means you cheated that just means you dropped you you either did one of two things you either bribed the attendant for it or you spent one thousand dollars playing the game for a two dollar price to earn that bear here Here's the truth. The only game that I think people win at regularly, I have won at, at the entire park, is the balloon popping with the darts. Okay. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:24:33 Because usually the prize is tiny. They're just giving prizes out. You can't actually win that one. And you probably can't. How do you really cheat that? Do they grease the balloons or something? I don't think that one's cheatable. So, look, when the prize is like some stupid little two cent uh stuffed animal that you know is half
Starting point is 00:24:52 the size of my hand whatever but when the prize is not getting to live by horror clowns i'm i'm in yeah the prize here is your life now if you take that game out but that's the key do you just run and find the games have have the smallest prizes? Is that the clue? That's interesting. Someone's got a Power Wheels hanging from the roof that they're giving away. You're never going to win that thing. Why did I say a Power Wheels?
Starting point is 00:25:14 Who hangs a Power Wheels? Because if you were a kid. Power Wheels. When you're a kid, the Power Wheels is basically the top tier. That's like the Ferrari of gifts. They wouldn't be hanging that from very stout hooks. To me, I was thinking, okay, a car's a big prize. Then I went Power Wheels, and then they're hanging there.
Starting point is 00:25:35 Here's the truth. They're not going at this horror park. They're not going to have the easy games. They're going to have all the rigged games. So here's my recommendation to you two gentlemen. The three of us sit down knowing that we will all die if we individually do these games. The three of us sit down at the water chute in the clown's mouth. And it guarantees that one of us.
Starting point is 00:26:00 Oh, because it's a competition. Exactly. One of us will. But then we all look up and there's a fourth participant and it's one of these clowns oh that's gonna kill us then he's got it right on the target the water shooter you can win and the wiffle ball basket toss you can win it gotta have backspin it you gotta have side spin oh it's side spin is the key there was a time in my life where i was a carny and i say that because i was a very very heavily bearded gentleman playing in a band and we played the fairs yeah you say that because
Starting point is 00:26:35 you were a carny yeah well i say that because i was a carny it's like saying like oh you know there was a time when i was a policeman and And I say that because I finished the academy. And then I got a badge. I worked for the New York Police Department. So, yes, you were a Cardney because you worked at the Cardinal. I more meant like that. My job was the music player. Sure.
Starting point is 00:27:00 Go on. And we went. There's a big convention every year. It's called the WFA. It's like World's Fair Association. Yeah, or Western. I don't know. But anyways.
Starting point is 00:27:10 Sounds like a wrestling event. So we went to this. We were performing. We were showing our wares. We were trying to get work to be carnies. And they had a couple games. Gotta earn it. They had a couple games there.
Starting point is 00:27:22 And one of them was the basket toss. And it was, you could just go play unlimited. And so I went over and I'm playing forever and I finally asked the guy, I'm like, how do you win this game? And he showed me. Because the workers of the basket toss can always do it. And I know they're a little bit further
Starting point is 00:27:38 closer, but they do it nonstop. Every time they can do it. It's all about the side spin. Here's the thing. I was thinking about this the other day because the fair is in town and here in Arizona. What has YouTube done to that equation? Because people go on YouTube and they can see how to win any game now. There's no secret.
Starting point is 00:27:59 It's not like you're going and you get it one time a year. You see the carny throw the ball. You could YouTube how to win in any of those games. Well, think about what we have just. This is a very large platform. A lot of people listen to this podcast. Overall. Dozens.
Starting point is 00:28:11 50 carnies per. Think about what we have just done to the fair system. You announcing the side spin. Are they coming for us? They're not so nimble, Mike. They've been playing these same games for a really really long time but the the ring toss is out that game is impossible the milk bottle yeah the ring toss is out the game where you throw like the the ping pong balls into the glass containers that game is
Starting point is 00:28:37 out when we have to shoot out the star that game is also out and basketball which is so sad because that's always the one i want to dominate at that's out because it you you have to shoot like a swish won't make it it's got to be better than that it's got to be like something where it bounces around and lays on the rim for a little bit before it squeezes through the rim i wonder all right would you guys be interested in a system where you pay 50 bucks and you get a prize but then you get to do the thing like unlimited until you can until you can conquer it i would do that in a heartbeat if you like just do it one time it would be fun if it works for the whole family you know if my whole family can go and play all these games unlimited for 50 bucks i would do
Starting point is 00:29:19 that and i will never go to a fair and spend 50 on on these games. You know what I mean? But do you get the prizes? I mean, you don't get the prizes then. I get a medium prize. Okay. One. See, we're really going subscription-based carnivals. It's going to happen. Just imagining being there for days. Family, go ahead.
Starting point is 00:29:36 I'll be here. Yeah, that's the issue. The lines would be. Part of why you spend up to play again and again is the competitive nature. Like, man, just a couple more tries. All right. So, in that case, I was going to say basketball because that is the competitive nature of like, man, I did just a couple more tries. All right. So in that case, I was going to say basketball.
Starting point is 00:29:48 Cause that's the one thing I feel like I can do. Yeah. You do that one. But I also feel like you need to prioritize a game that you could do while potentially running away from these people trying to kill you. So the, but the dart one, the dart one makes sense.
Starting point is 00:30:01 You just run, throw the dart, run by you're in a safe zone. When you're playing the game, they're just, they throw the dart, run by. You're in a safe zone. When you're playing the game, they're just... They're waiting outside to murder you? Yeah, they're in an arc around you. Yeah, holding hands like Red Rover style in a giant circle around the circus. Clown smiles.
Starting point is 00:30:15 Either of you guys find clowns exceptionally scary? I'm not really scared of clowns, no. I am not scared of clowns at all, except when there is a horrifically scary clown mask. You know, like if you dress up like a clown, like regular clowns, those aren't scary, but they scare people. I don't understand why. It's because they're scary. But you're scared of clowns.
Starting point is 00:30:39 I think they're creepy. I get I understand. There's a difference between creepy and scary. But to me, it's like it's like anybody wearing a mask you don't know their motives you can't see through it so just regular clown though you find it creepy in like yeah i get it until i get to know them makeup clown makeup clown not scary mask clown scary All right. Edwin from Patreon, one of our spitwads, has a situation for us. He says, after an unfortunate altercation with your local wizard, of course, the three of you must live the rest of your days in the ocean.
Starting point is 00:31:18 Oh, Mr. Limpet's situation. Those will be short days. He reassures you that you will be able to communicate with all other sea life he gives you the choice to be any sea creature or animal of your liking okay what are you choosing and why so you've got to live out in the ocean forever but you will be able to communicate and then apparently thrive yeah i mean this i feel like this is a pretty easy answer because if i'm out in the ocean i what are your biggest worries in the ocean it's it's predators right so i want to be the predator i want to be the one that is winning these battles and while you know i i don't know if this is top of the food chain
Starting point is 00:32:05 or if anybody else goes, but the great white shark. I believe it's the top. Yeah, I'm taking the great white shark. Maybe orcas could get one. Yeah, and maybe, you know, if you're a giant, you know, blue whale, maybe you don't worry. You know, a great white shark's not doing nothing to you. And that's kind of more my speed.
Starting point is 00:32:21 You know, I'm just like trying to get through this blubber. But I'm going great white shark because I also want speed speed you know i'm just like try to get through this blubber um but i'm going great white shark because i also want speed you know i want to be able to pop out of the water and see my old world it's strength and see what i actually went with speed so i was trying to what's the fastest animal in the water and apparently apparently it's a sailfish but you're vulnerable man a sailfish no look up. A sailfish is like a marlin where it has the giant spear nose. I still feel like you're not
Starting point is 00:32:49 at the top of the food chain. I'm not at the top. No, you're pretty safe. You can go... Oh, I've seen these before. Back to my point. From the Cretaceous. This thing goes 68 miles an hour in the water, which is basically as fast as a cheetah can run on the ground.
Starting point is 00:33:05 So imagine being able to swim that fast. Or a Prius. So that's like a Prius in the water. Exactly. But I have a giant spear nose. Well, that's not so bad. I'm being the sailfish. You know, it's interesting what we prioritized.
Starting point is 00:33:20 Now, the first thing I looked at was what sea creature has the longest lifespan by default. Isn't it a turtle? Is it the turtle? Well, what I found was a bowhead whale that is 200 plus years. And I'm thinking I'm a big old whale, so I'm resilient, right? Nobody's going to come and get me. Do you want to live 200 years as a whale? Floating in the ocean, just taking in the sights, my man.
Starting point is 00:33:43 200 years of that yeah there's a lot of ocean to see you're not look at that internet every time i bet it'd be great every time mike makes a home somewhere as a sailfish once a predator comes along sure he's not gonna get eaten but he has to move i think the only predator sailfish has to worry about is man and just because i turn into a fish you have to worry about the jason still so jason will come get you not coming after me they're going after the small straight after you now other great whites you will never catch me i'm 68 miles an hour man dude a great white i'm so powerful i'll catch i'll i'll eat the the bowheaded whale i'm just coming in you've got both of you guys mike now i don't know if it changes things but you are
Starting point is 00:34:23 locked in unfortunately uh 13 to 15 years is the lifespan of a sailfish. What do I got? I've got 200 years. What's the lifespan of a great white? I don't know, but they're maxed. You or a regular great white? My cholesterol as a shark is a little high. 70 years.
Starting point is 00:34:39 I'll take that. You want 70 years as a shark or 200 as a bowhead? Look, I figure I got 70 as a human, so I'm good with 70 as a gray white. You're only going 35 miles an hour, Jay. You ain't catching me. I'm going to sneak up. I will swim backwards and poke you in the face with my big sword nose. I'm 100 tons.
Starting point is 00:34:59 That's what I just figured out. But you're just there. You're not living. I'm not? No, you're not living. There's no l-i-v-i-n going on as a whale now you're just you know what you do as a whale you swim all the way to the north doesn't it seem like when you swim back down listen to their voice they're not except nothing can here's the irony of the situation because we look up lifespans,
Starting point is 00:35:26 and then you wonder when God created these creatures, maybe he was building in the level of enjoyment. So the sailfish is 13, 15 years of unadulterated. Too much enjoyment. Just so much fun. Life too good. The shark, it's pretty nice, like 70 years. And then the bowhead.
Starting point is 00:35:45 All right, you get to live for a long time. Kill me. Too long. I've seen all my friends die. I've seen every inch of this big blue. I fell. The sailfish has been dead for 150 years. My best friend.
Starting point is 00:36:06 You know, he doesn't do him any favors to call him a bowhead. I'll be honest with you. Got eaten by a shark. And now the shark's dead. All my friends are gone. And I'm here. Kill me. They call him bowhead, too.
Starting point is 00:36:26 That's not fun. All right. Steve from Twitter. The three of you are given an assignment that you cannot refuse, which requires one person to solve a complex puzzle, one person to capture a meerkat and the third person to distract a crowd and keep their undivided
Starting point is 00:36:49 attention for 10 minutes. This is great. I've got to be honest with you. He wants to know who does what job. These are three distinct skill sets. Complex puzzle, capture a meerkat, distract a crowd. I don know how jason's not distracting
Starting point is 00:37:06 the crowd yeah he has to be i want to i want to up it i need 100 minutes i gotta keep their attention for 100 i'll do it you're all over that yeah and that may be it may take me 100 minutes to capture the meerkat as well well i'm gonna i'm gonna boost the ego jay oh so be careful for this watch out i this happened this morning. I came downstairs. The meerkat thing? No. But I came downstairs and my middle boy, he says, Dad,
Starting point is 00:37:33 my sister's saying that Jason is funnier than you. And I said, yeah, because he is. You're so sweet, Mike. So you're taking care of the crowd for 10 minutes. So now Mike and I are competing on like, you want to solve the complex puzzle or do you want to do the meerkat? I do like puzzles.
Starting point is 00:37:52 Here's the thing. But these are both a puzzle. The capsule meerkat. I believe both of you. A puzzle of sorts. I believe both of you and it could solve the complex puzzle. I really do. I think you put either one of you to the complex puzzle.
Starting point is 00:38:05 We're okay there. When it comes to catching the meerkat, that's where we've got to decide. This is tough. Yeah. Who can catch the meerkat better? Now, Andy, you are back to the gym, right? You're working out. Sure.
Starting point is 00:38:22 But you injure easily. That's true. So you could be going after this Amir cat and reach down. Ah! My groin! Very positive. I feel like I've got a little bit more wiggle, and Amir cat's nimble. I think I can juke a little better than Mike can juke.
Starting point is 00:38:37 I've seen Mike play defense on a flag football league. Sometimes it's okay. But the thing about Amir cat is he- And what were you saying about that? on a flag football league. Sometimes it's okay, but the thing about Amiraket is... And what were you saying about that? I'm saying I'm glad he's got a good football IQ because he gets to the right spot
Starting point is 00:38:50 but based on the IQ. Yes, and I will not argue with this, but when you're chasing Amiraket I don't think this is an above ground chase. I think this is a... You're in the tunnels? They're in a tunnel system. You've got to figure out how to get it. So it's a bit of a puzzle. Yeah. So at the end, it seems like once the puzzle's done,
Starting point is 00:39:07 I mean, you're hoping you're not waiting on the... Are you going to be waiting on the meerkat guy or are you going to wait on the puzzle guy? The meerkat guy. Because Jason's just distracted. Okay, so the meerkat situation. Yes, for sure. Because between the three of us,
Starting point is 00:39:17 we could put all three of us on the job. I'm not sure we're getting the meerkat. We've all done the escape the room before. It's true. Yeah. And I think Mike's pretty good at puzzles. I think could 100 handle the puzzle all right i'll take it i just fair warning i watch a lot of survivor everybody volunteers to do the puzzle but if you're the you're the one that can't do it everyone's watching you fail and they're all thinking
Starting point is 00:39:40 i know how to do this puzzle and then you don't see the obvious thing. Also, all I can think about from Meerkat is when someone took an Animal Planet video and dubbed over, it's just screaming. So all the Meerkats are screaming. Hey! Yes. Hey! That would make it easier to catch them. If I knew where they were. Although that might be taunting me as they pop out of their holes.
Starting point is 00:40:04 Hey! They eat things. You could leave trappings. Trappings? If I knew where they were, although that might be taunting me as they pop out of their holes. Hey! You could trap... They eat things. You could leave trappings. Trappings? Is that the... I think it's just called bait. Bait.
Starting point is 00:40:13 Bait is the word I was looking for. In the biz, we call it trappings. Yeah. I mean, we're on this side of the cameras. It's trappings. Okay. All right. I think we figured that one out.
Starting point is 00:40:26 Let's getppings. Okay. All right. I think we figured that one out. Let's get into the draft. The Spitballers Draft. Okay. This one is actually going to be very fun. From time to time, we do these battle royale drafts. We've been inside of... Al Borland, remind us of some. We've done, what, Disney characters we threw into a Coliseum. We've done.
Starting point is 00:40:47 Yeah, we've done a hardware store, a food fight to the death in a grocery store. So we're back in the Coliseum, I assume. Yep. And we are drafting the, we can only choose NFL team names. Yes. So we're talking about the entire NFL. So, like, if you wanted to battle with a dolphin. Yeah, dolphins.
Starting point is 00:41:11 Which I highly recommend you guys do. Of course. You could pick the Miami Dolphins. That would be just like me, considering I picked a sea triton for the Coliseum last time, and there's no water. So we're picking from all the different teams, but we're trying to
Starting point is 00:41:25 assemble a four pack of teams that will defeat the other two in a coliseum it's gonna be rough and who has so jason has the first pick i have the first pick and while i think that's a pretty bad draft to have the first pick there is one there is one team that has what should be a trump card right i don't know you tell me when you pick yeah and that's gonna be the tennessee yeah okay you got it because a titan is like okay maybe you've got a a bill you know a nice buffalo and that's tough that's a that's a beast maybe that'll get drafted. But like a Titan in mythology is like an all-powerful being. It is. A creator, a god of.
Starting point is 00:42:09 The Titans were at war with the gods. Yeah, that's so, yeah. They lost. Come on, Buffalo. But there was still a war. Right. So the Titans, I think that's got to be the one. And I feel like maybe this is a good one-on-one because no matter what you draft,
Starting point is 00:42:27 I don't think there's anything else out there that can beat a Titan. I'm going to give it a shot, though. Come on, man. I'm going to take the Giants. Dang it. Because a Giant, that's another word for a Titan for all I care. So I'm taking the big boys, the Giants, with pick number two. I will say this, Jason.
Starting point is 00:42:45 I thought you might, you know, force for the trees there and miss the Titans. I was hoping it would drop to me. But give me them Giants. They're big. They're strong. They're going to wrestle with you. Yeah, because it's like, do you want, I mean, a lot of these teams are animals, vicious animals. And obviously, like, I can't hang, you with a with a cougar if if i was fighting
Starting point is 00:43:07 a cougar right the cougar is gonna win but if i'm a giant if i'm 30 feet tall and you give me a little cougar that's like me fighting a cat yeah i'm gonna win that fight so the real question is where does mike's got a couple picks here but he might need a couple picks to go up against the size situation you guys clearly took the top two picks. Okay. I was hoping someone would be dumb and let one of them fall, but that did not happen. So now I get what I believe would be like the best of the animal group
Starting point is 00:43:41 for this fight. Someone had to enter the animal group. Yeah. Well, I mean, that's where I have to go, because I'm not taking the 49ers. I don't need someone searching for gold. Like a 49er? Yeah, I don't think they're going to fare very well. You'd get a pickaxe, right?
Starting point is 00:43:57 You'd leave that coliseum rich and beaten up. If there was gold there. Did you say you'd get a pickaxe? Yeah. That's finding the golden lining of that situation you say you get a pickaxe? Yeah. That's the finding the golden lining of that situation. A human with a pickaxe. I'm also 50 years old with a giant gray beard. Hold on. Are you trying to
Starting point is 00:44:12 bait him into the pickaxe? I said I'm not taking it. No, no, no. It sounds really good now, Mike. Maybe you're a dummy. Alright. Give me the gold! That's how they all laugh. Yeah. Alright. For the first pick pick i'll take the bears yeah okay of course of course i believe that is the best of the animals like there are two there's a 101 and 102 of the animal world see there's there's a few there's there's three
Starting point is 00:44:37 and i'm not sure which one is better but between the next two but i hold on i'm gonna do some research you guys talk you have another research you're on. I'm going to do some research. You guys talk. You have another pick. You're on the clock. I want to check out size, man. Okay. Real quick. I'm on the clock so I can work it out. What are the packers? They put stuff into a box. Right. They help you move
Starting point is 00:44:58 and so they can really... I'm sure they've got some tape. Who are you trying to sell him? When you've got the tape roll You know, they got to be able to close. Who are you trying to sell him? When you got the tape roll, the edge of that thing's pretty sharp. Oh, yeah. I'm just trying to understand what the Packers are.
Starting point is 00:45:12 Like, genuinely. Oh, I know what they are. Tell me. The Packers. So my family, my wife's family is from Wisconsin. And Wisconsin was full of paper mills. So I think it has to do. So it is a Packer. It's legitimately.. So I think it has to do with. So it is a packer.
Starting point is 00:45:25 It's legitimately. It's literally a packer. Yeah, I think it has to do. It was the Acme Packing Company, I believe is what they're named after. Oh, okay. So it's literally like, that's what the best they could come up with? Well, no, I mean, it's a simple time. We had black socks and white socks and red socks.
Starting point is 00:45:39 There is a team that is a landmine. I'm letting you guys know. A little tricky landmine. You're letting us know ahead of time? Yes. And if you you pick them i'm going to laugh because then i will reveal what they were named after and what they actually are it will be fantastic and you're going and you're going with the browns now right no uh so what i was checking was the size of a couple animals i will take the bangles okay the cincinnati bank were you doing a little bit of a size check between them and like Lions and things like that? I was 100% seeing how big a
Starting point is 00:46:07 Lion is compared to the Bengal Tiger. The Bengal Tiger is 490 pounds, where a Lion's more like 420 pounds. Are any of the NFL teams named Bowhead Whales? Because I'll be out there for 200 years. You'll never get me.
Starting point is 00:46:25 So here's the thing. I had a pick lined up. But now I feel like, look, the Giants, I mean, I think they can kind of kick around the Bears and the Bengals. But my other pick that I was going to go with, now I feel is very vulnerable to your animals, Mike. And so you've backed me into it. I'm going to take the lions
Starting point is 00:46:45 yeah you got I'm going to I need an animal on my side so I would have taken the lions over the bangles it's a tight choice I think of a lion and a bangle were to fight the lion would I don't know he's the king he is the king is not the king is there a like
Starting point is 00:47:01 kind of nature sensitive way to do that like let them do that I'm sure you could look it up but like no no I mean like for my entertainment the bangle tiger is not the king is there a like kind of nature sensitive way to do that like let them do that i'm sure you could look it up but like no no i mean like for my entertainment the bengal tiger is not in africa as far as i know i think it's in india so like they're yes he's the king of the jungle but you don't that's because the bengal tiger's not there to be the king they could be they could be and the main i mean the main's is. On a lion, so you kind of think that they're stronger. Which one killed Val Kilmer a bunch in that movie? Killed him a bunch?
Starting point is 00:47:32 Not a bunch, but... That was the... Ghost in the Darkness. Yeah, with Michael... I almost said Michael Keaton. Michael Douglas. Michael Douglas. No, that was a story, but that was a true... That was Lion's story.
Starting point is 00:47:42 Yes. Or no, or it was... Yes, it was... I think it was Lion's. Pretty sure it was Lion's. Okay. I think, actually, it was it was... I think it was Lions. Pretty sure it was Lions. Okay. I think actually it was Bengal Tigers. Was it? Yeah, I think so. Alright, Jason, you've got a couple of picks so far. I have the Giants
Starting point is 00:47:54 and the Lions. Mike has the Bears and Bengals, and you have the Titans and then two more picks. Alright, I'm wondering who would win in a fight. It's Lions, Andy. Oh, is it? Okay. What?
Starting point is 00:48:06 Ghost in the Darkness was lions. We want to be accurate here on the show with our pop culture references. John Vardy, the owner of the Lundalzi Reserve in South Africa, always asks between a lion and a tiger if they were to fight. If a tiger and a lion had to fight, which one would win? There's a quote. Well, I've seen tigers crunch up full-grown leopard tortoise like it was nothing and lions try but they just don't get it right if there was a fight the tiger will win every time excellent
Starting point is 00:48:35 now that's just a quote from this person like a person with yeah i really appreciate that quote thank you animals it doesn't matter i've got the Titans. Yeah. I got another quote, actually. Titans don't exist. That's from reality. Okay. That's fair. That's fair. I've got another quote for you.
Starting point is 00:48:54 Giants don't exist. You have Andre. Oh, thank you. Okay. All right. So I've got two picks here. You know, there's so many humanoid, you know, like Vikings were vicious people. But can they really hang with these animals? How many do you get?
Starting point is 00:49:09 Right. Like, it's plural. It's not a Viking. You get plural. I consider it to be. Two? Just a, I'll give you five. Oh.
Starting point is 00:49:19 Of everything or does size matter? Like, if it's larger, you get one. If it's smaller, you get many. I think Al Borland has to speak on the topic. I was thinking just one. It does make sense to have just one because it's still the Bears. You don't get multiple Bears. I'll back off that because that's hard to –
Starting point is 00:49:34 you don't want a gaggle of Vikings coming after you. Come on. All right, so you've got the Lions, the Bears, and the Bengals taken from the animal world, and i think i'm still living in the animal world right now i i feel like i know your landmine i feel like i know what it is and i'm not gonna do it but i really hope that uh that andy does oh boy all right let's go with the first air attack oh nicely done. I thought about it, but the Bengals were there.
Starting point is 00:50:06 I had to take it. Yeah, I mean. So what do you mean the first? What are you taking? The only, right? No, not the only. There's several options. I could take the Cardinals. Okay, so I got you.
Starting point is 00:50:16 Tweet, tweet. This is a beautiful red bird. What a beautiful distraction. Exactly. All right, what do you got? I'm going to take the Eagles. I think the Eagles. I think they're the top flight attack.
Starting point is 00:50:26 They're a predatory bird that you can't reach. The animal, you know, come down, pluck your eyes out type of situation, and not even the giant can reach them. That's really just about it, though, right? I mean, they'll come down to pick your eyes out. They'll take off again. If I got to fight all blind animals and others, that's enough. Like that, you, that one of my four pick, you've done a good job. Um, I think that I've got to compete in some way
Starting point is 00:50:57 with the, with the, with the Bengal and the lion. It's certainly not as good trying to decide between two cats. I know which two you're thinking about. The two cats. The Panthers or the Jaguars. Which one's better? Let me find a quote from catking.net. Let's see here. Well, here's the problem. If you search Panthers fight Jaguars.
Starting point is 00:51:19 Look, it doesn't matter what your... You just get an NFL film of the Panthers fighting Jaguars. It doesn't matter what you're... You just get an NFL film of the Panthers fighting Jaguars. It doesn't matter what you find on the web. It matters what our listeners think when they think of those two animals. It's true. That's what's going to define the vote. They're not going to do research. I mean, they could, but I doubt they will in the poll.
Starting point is 00:51:38 So here's my uneducated guess as to these two animals. I view the Jaguars as faster, guess as to these two animals i view the jaguars as faster as you know but i view the panthers as a stronger beast interesting so i'm gonna take the strength of a panther because i'm not trying to just get away from the fight and run away like you know if you get a jaguar and he's just running and i can't catch him whatever i'll use my magic from my titans but um yeah so those are mine i've got the panthers the eagles and the titans yes okay um i'm gonna i'm gonna throw a little wild card into the equation wild card not the one that Mike is suspecting. Or is it? It could be.
Starting point is 00:52:27 I don't know. But I'm actually going to take the Cowboys. Because I want some rooting. You get a gun. I want some guns in the equation. And the Cowboys are bringing them to the table. Do you get a horse? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:42 No. Yes, you do. Al Borland, do you get a horse with a cowboy? I don't think you get another animal with him. Yeah, because that'd be too big. You'd be drafting the Broncos and the cowboys. Yes. Absolutely not.
Starting point is 00:52:54 I think the cowboys. A cowboy is defined by having his horse. No, he is not. He's someone who works on a ranch. He's got a six shooter and a lasso. You get the six shooter. That's fine. All right. So I get the gun. You get the six-shooter. That's fine. All right.
Starting point is 00:53:05 So I get the gun. I mean, that thing's useless against me. Wait, wait, wait. I just Googled definition of a cowboy. I'm going to read it. Oh, no. A man, typically one on horseback, who herds or tins cattle, especially in the western U.S.
Starting point is 00:53:18 That's the fine. It's represented in westerns and novels. So it sounds by this. You get to pick, Andy. Do we get the movie cowboy who has a six shooter or do we get the Google definition who has a horse? Oh, gunner horse. Cause he's not, there's no gun in this situation. Okay. Hold on. I'm going to throw this up to Al Borland. I'm not going to make myself susceptible to your binary choice here. I just looked up Dallas Cowboys historical logos from 1966 to 69. It included a horse.
Starting point is 00:53:47 Did it have a six-shooter? I don't know. You don't know, but you're looking at it. I want the six-shooter ultimately. So I'll let Borland. It's not going to be on the draft. It's not going to be in the poll. The poll will just be Cowboys. Yeah. You can make your own assumptions. All right. I'm still taking them. I got my gun. All right. When you think of a cowboy, they've got a gun. We're getting further down the list where you got to get creative or grab stupid options.
Starting point is 00:54:15 All right. All right. So I have. The Ravens bring bad luck. The Ravens will eat your eyes out. That's for sure. My Eagles will eat your Ravens. Yes.
Starting point is 00:54:23 That is also true. All right. So I have two picks to close out my team. eyes out that's for sure my eagles will eat your raven yes that that is also true all right so i have two picks to close out my team uh i'll take man i'll take uh you took the panther i took the panther are you taking the jag yeah give me the jaguar wow you are animal heavy right now look what is the other people gonna do you need a raider? Yeah, but you need some conniving. You need some thinking. You need a buccaneer.
Starting point is 00:54:49 Yeah, I thought about... A swashbuckling. Those are both on my list. All right. It's on my list. I thought about taking both of them, and then you're just from the ocean. Two ships arrive, and off come the raiders and the buccaneers. I would much rather have a Viking than either of those.
Starting point is 00:55:02 I feel like a Viking is made to murder. A Viking is going gonna be way tougher a buck a buccaneer is made to plunder you know with swords sure but they're just going after vikings have like they've got swords and axes and yes a buccaneer probably has thirst for blood the buccaneer probably has the gun but it's that it's that single shotgun the not shotgun but single shot gun. All right. Okay, that's a different question. Would you rather have a single shot gun or a sword?
Starting point is 00:55:36 Because if we're in a fight. Are we talking about the pirate guns where they're not accurate either? Sure, but if I get you, I win. No, not necessarily. I can I get you, I win. No, not necessarily. I can still get you with my sword. The sword might not do a lot against, like, a, I don't know, bear, bengal, or jaguar. Yeah, it's helpful against the people. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:55 All right, Mike has a final pick to decide on, and it is difficult. It is very difficult. Do I want another fast animal? Do I want to take to the air like Jason? And I feel like I do. I'm going to take the falcon. Okay. I'm going to take the falcon.
Starting point is 00:56:13 I need some air. I need some speed. Better than the ravens. Yes. A raven is not a predatory animal. No. If you're locked up on the ground. I'm going to spread some secrets for you.
Starting point is 00:56:23 Oh, man. I just thought of a good one. Yeah, it's interesting. So Mike has the bear, bangle, jaguar, and falcon. Jason's got the titan, the eagle, and the panther. And I've got the giant, the lion, and the cowboy. I feel like mine is the most diverse team. But now I'm a little frightened of Mike's fury of
Starting point is 00:56:46 animals coming my way because he's got all animals. Yes. So the Raiders, the Buccaneers, thinking about those, Vikings. I thought about going to Texans because I know they're packing heat. That's what I was just thinking. They're packing heat. You've got a whole arsenal of weaponry if you're getting a
Starting point is 00:57:02 Texan. I got my cowboy. He's probably from texas i think ultimately then and i thought there was another trap pick i will talk about it after i will go with the vikings okay uh i will go with the ferocious attacker made to conquer give me a viking i'm feeling good with giant lion cowboy viking now the thing with the trap is even if you put the pole up without contact, releasing the trap, people are going to think that it's not actually,
Starting point is 00:57:30 I'm going to guess your trap. All right. It's the jets. No. Oh really? The jets were the one of the traps. Yeah. Because you're in a Coliseum.
Starting point is 00:57:37 Well, you think it could bomb everybody and then you're in big trouble. Well, here's the thing. The jets is like, Oh, it's a fighter jet. That's that's right.
Starting point is 00:57:44 You know, I would take that in a heartbeat. The trap that I thought is when I looked up why were they named the Jets, it was based on them being near LaGuardia. And this was like airliner. Oh, you were going to jump all over that if somebody said it. Oh, I was. I just assumed Mike was going to jump over that.
Starting point is 00:57:57 I thought that was going to be your first pick. Nope. No. As soon as I found out, it's not like a fighter jet. I mean, because that would be awesome. And also, my Titans could beat the Airbus. Probably. All right, take your last pick.
Starting point is 00:58:11 All right, my last pick. I'm just going for girth here. Wouldn't be the first one. I'm going to take the Buffalo Bills. That's the trap. Yeah, baby! Wait a minute. No, the trap was the Jets.
Starting point is 00:58:24 They're not Buffaloes, man. They're not Buffaloes. That's the city. That's the logo. You got a- The logo. We just talked about the logo for the Cowboys. The Buffalo Bills franchise was named after the Buffalo Bills, a popular barbershop quartet.
Starting point is 00:58:41 Are you kidding me? Mr. Sandman. I just drafted a quartet. Bring me a treat. You're darn right you did. Oh, my goodness. No way. I saw you write it down, and I held the poker face.
Starting point is 00:58:59 Hey, at least now. Mr. Sandman. Okay, Borland, I get the whole quartet, though, right? This is a four-pack if they're going after a quartet. You get four dudes with razors. How about that? Would you rather have four dudes with razors? Yeah, they're in a barbershop.
Starting point is 00:59:13 Would you rather have one buccaneer or one cowboy or four? I'll take the cowboy. I will. I'll take him first. A whole sea. A whole sea of barbershop quartet men. I'm going to sing you to sleep. How wonderful that you tripped yourself into it.
Starting point is 00:59:31 It doesn't matter. I've got the Titans. And when you put it up, people will believe that it's a Buffalo. But I'm like, I started actually thinking about it. I'm like, a bill? What is a bill? Is it money? Am I drafting a...
Starting point is 00:59:45 Clinton? I looked it up. Barbershop. Barbershop. I thought you might have had a trick. I don't know what the actual Chargers team name was based on. I was trying to figure that out. Because I wanted to get some lightning action into my roster, but I was worried Mike was
Starting point is 00:59:58 going to tell me, like, that's... The trap thing kept me away, because I was worried that the real... Very nice. you know the trap thing kept me away because i was worried that the real like a charger is really a you drafted a piston from a 54 chevy um but we did it we got it and how spectacular is that jason all right here so it was named that because uh frankly he picked the charger's name when he purchased an afl franchise for los ang. I liked it because they were yelling charge at the sound of the bugle at the Dodgers game. So
Starting point is 01:00:30 it's just someone running. Woo! Thank goodness for that. That wraps up. We'll have to do that with some of the other sports leagues at some point in time. Oh, I'm going to get the jazz. Oh yeah, you've got to. I've got my quartet. If I can get some jazz the jazz. Oh, yeah. You've got to. I've got my quartet.
Starting point is 01:00:45 You do. If I can get some jazz music playing. Or, you know, I'm surprised you didn't take the Browns after some bad Mediterranean. What did we learn today? I learned that the Bills were named after a barbershop quartet, my friends. That was exciting. And I learned that an animal's lifespan is directly correlated with how much fun they have while living and i learned that you can die from a
