all right guys welcome sorry broadcasting from an undisclosed location
thanks for having me yeah um sorry also to the fans for taking so long to get this
pot out thank you for your patience yeah on the behalf of uh of a fan yeah but yeah thanks
thanks for the thanks for blindfolding me to take me here and not beating the shit at me
I had a blindfold on.
It is wild.
I feel like it's been a little bit
since I've podcasted.
I feel like I've forgotten how to do it.
Has it been months?
No, but it's been a couple weeks.
Yeah, yeah.
And the rust accumulates so fast.
I know.
But eventually,
you find yourself locked in a room
saying the N-word.
I got to get out there in podcasts.
I think you guys might need to snuggle into me
a little bit.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
We might need it.
Oh, dude, yeah, this is.
We moved from the casting couch to fucking just three guys.
This is a border.
Yeah, three guys are not getting their deal.
I think as long as you're right on that edge, you're fine.
I think so.
Maybe I'll take, hold on, I'll take a look.
All right.
I do want to acknowledge, though, that originally he wanted to do this last night.
And I do want to say, Chris, that I did say yes, I would do it,
even though there was a Phillies elimination playoff game
and an Eagles Division game.
And if you didn't have a Netflix show,
I would have been like, get fuck, you fucking loser, dude.
Lose my number.
Are you out of your fucking mind?
Well, yeah, it was, it was, I had to cancel anyway.
I lied to Tommy that I, that we were doing it.
Well, thank you for cancel.
I know.
I know.
But I had to cancel because I didn't have the right gear.
I kept getting stuff and then realizing I didn't have the right stuff.
That was a better.
That was like a three-day process of just trying to figure out the equipment.
Yeah, well, my girl has a little, like, we work kind of space.
And I was like, they have all the stuff.
Yeah, let me just unplug this shit for a minute and bring it around the corner.
Yeah, but then I went in there, like, two days ago, and they didn't have,
someone had taken all of it.
Oh, God.
Yeah.
Podcasting has become a podcast.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
just taking every single piece of it but they still had a few things left and then i kept
like going and getting the pieces i thought i needed and then they didn't work like all the
like they had microphones and then i plugged them in they didn't work i was just like all right
well fuck shit it is funny to to like rent um like co-working space and it's like what's your
business it's like i podcast yeah but a loud podcast with three other loud guys
they did a nice job with the podcast room it's like double sealed it's like oh it's for like actually
it's actually for podcast oh yeah that's awesome there's like a green screen and stuff but damn that's
cool but the equipment has deteriorated the equipment the equipment is gone and uh and yeah with little
pieces they had left i was like oh i can make this work and then i couldn't make it work and then
uh last night i was really tired and also didn't have a card reader and i was like
I'm going to tell Tommy
I'm doing the podcast
and do it tomorrow
and then you walked in
and were like
yo man I fucked you
but it's not your fault
yeah I didn't mean to do that
it's not your fault
I couldn't realize
what he was trying to get out of me
yeah
it was one of those things
where I was like this will be fine
we'll get it tomorrow
it's not it's not that big of a difference
people can wait
wait another 24 hours.
It's true.
I couldn't tell a second.
I couldn't call you and be like, hey, if Tommy asks, we're currently podcasting.
So don't, don't text him any live reactions to the Eagles or Phillies game.
I should have been like, bro, it's the 11th fucking inning right now.
And you're texting me, are you podding?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He texted me too.
And I was like, yep.
He doubled on me.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, he wanted to confirm.
He wanted to confirm.
He's smart.
He's good move, yeah, he got me.
He got me dead to rights.
Yeah.
I didn't even do anything fun for the game last night.
I just sat at home and watched everybody lose.
Same.
I didn't drink a few beers, though.
That was rare thing that I do at home watching sports.
Yeah.
And I was like, is Philly's.
I didn't crack one until, like, the fourth inning.
and then I cracked a fifth one at like 1.30 in the morning.
And I was like, man, this is living in it.
Yeah, it was brutal night.
Games are over. Time to relax.
It was a brutal night in Philadelphia sports.
I kind of, yeah, kind of sitting alone at home to watch it.
For games like that, it feels kind of right.
You know what I mean?
Where it's like I'm, you know, getting ready to go kill someone.
I'll just watch this on loop until I have to.
And I had...
I kept trying to, like, juice myself up.
I kept being like, I was, like, having a bad attitude.
You know what I mean?
I was, like, tired and on the couch and lying to my friends.
And it's just going, like, the Phillies are going to fucking lose.
They're going to lose this fucking game.
And then I would, like, go to the kitchen and be like, no, man, that's, come on.
Put some good energy out there.
Like, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, don't be like the rest of these fucking Philly fans shitheads, dude.
Every fucking season, it's like we're doing pretty well.
We won 96 games or something right there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We're winning 90 plus games.
This is the second best record in the league, I think?
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, behind the Brewers.
And I don't know.
I watched 100 games this year.
I'll watch 100 games next year, and I'm going to be happy while I do it.
Yeah, I'm convinced, like, the buy, getting a first round buy in the MLB playoffs is
it's been the curse since they've made that format yeah yeah because it's you
stop playing the Phillies did a scrimmage yeah right they did an intra-squad scrimmage it's
like that that's gonna kill your team yeah it was in my opinion yeah i think 30,000 people
went to the inter squad scrimmage as well wow which is i would like to unbelievable yeah
I mean, it is like, it's like, I'll just, I can get drunk at this.
You know what I mean?
It's like, I'll go to that.
I think it was only $10.
That means I can have 10 more beers.
And it's like a, as a scrimmage, it's a picnic.
It's like, it's like exactly the opposite of playoff energy that you want to have.
It's like, everyone in the stands is like, we did it.
We're so good.
They're partying.
They're celebrating.
They're making jokes.
The team's probably laughing and scratching.
Dude, now you're right
That's, yeah
Scrimmage
Yeah, just picking your butt
And making jokes, dude
That's, that's
No, yeah
Scrimmage
Concession stands
Are only selling
Black coffee
We need to,
yeah,
it's hard nose
You need to get ready
for the
I don't know
Yeah, it should be
The field should be lit
By like F-150s
Yeah
Just
When the sun's going down
You should be like
An urgency
to get moving
We don't have enough gas
To fucking fill these F-150s and keep the lights lit
That much longer
Oh man
Yeah well it's an interesting thing to try
I mean I don't know what else you do during that
Off week when you're not in the wild card race
Or in the wild card uh series
I feel like it's
You can't play a college team
You can't play a fucking
I know
They should bring me up
They should put me on first against Bryce's team
They should.
Yeah, they should scrimmage another team.
They should scrimmage like the Mets.
Yeah, it's like...
That's what they should do.
We'll give you guys all like a few more $1,000.
It's like, do you want to play baseball again?
I do.
I don't, like, whenever I'm watching the game and I think about any of those guys just having like $600 million.
And everyone like, like, everyone's like holding their hat and like pressurized.
It's like, could you imagine being.
that guy, being like, you're telling me if I get it out here, I get to go on vacation with my
$700 million a month earlier than that.
Yeah, I guess that's true.
Or I can spend the next three weeks having people talk shit about me, even though we're
doing good.
Actually, yeah, it's a good point.
It'd be funny if they were just lying to every baseball player.
It's like, yeah, you make hundreds of millions of dollars.
They're like, oh, awesome.
Yeah.
All right.
And it's like, yeah, just go play baseball.
Yeah, we'll give it to you in 40 years.
get it in 20 years.
Yeah.
Just go play.
It's a deferred package.
Yeah.
And then the fucking Dodgers filed bankruptcy right before Otani's, the rest of his money is due.
They just fold as an organization so they don't have to pay half a billion dollar.
Wait, what's the fucking chicken place in Los Angeles?
They buy it.
Zanku.
It's like the Zanku chicken Dodgers.
They like buy it.
They're out of bankruptcy.
It's like a promo.
It does feel like we're slowly on the way to that being a thing.
Like instead of it being Los Angeles, it's just like the Google Dodgers.
Yeah, I fully agree.
Yeah.
Crypto.com.
Now that they got advertisements on the uniform in baseball, I think.
Sooner and later.
They're on the way down now.
They've reached the peak.
It's kind of ironic that America of all places has held firm for so long on the ads on
jerseys that's true it's like yeah it's like soccer teams like have been
been sponsored by like bimbo bread or whatever yes i've been for decades i've always known it
yeah and i've always found it strange but that is a good yeah it's very un-European and very
american that's why it's so hard to find out what team a team is you're like who are the fly emirates
dude it's the fucking emirates yeah i swear they were jeep trucks last
year but it's the same jersey yeah it feels like the most uh you're right it does it's like
fucking turn it on make these guys more money they were doing all that stuff they were doing all
the game i remember watching soccer forever ago and they would have like the 1 888 bet thing oh wow
just that was all the ads for the game and in the stadium were just gambling companies and you
had to text them to do it you had to text a betty i have no idea but it was all gambling
and i just remember people always being like yeah that's their very like left wing over there
and it's like what i don't think so it doesn't seem like it seems like that it's like a total
corporate yeah yeah i guess it's like the easiest way to i don't know how it works
make money i think they were making tons and tons and tons of money yeah i think it's like blue
Laws still like that you can only like
I think I think even here
in Philly like all the
There's like a lot of like beer
Distributes oh yeah oh yeah that's called a blue law
Yeah yeah the Connecticut
I know it's like I know from the Connecticut blue law
thing it's like liquor yes yeah yeah
But yeah I thought you might be right way Sunday
Sunday is done at 8 o'clock
Which is a very strange thing
Yeah yeah oh oh
Sunday night football come on
Yeah the sun's down
That is a crazy thing that we had to deal with, though, in college.
You have to, like, really plan ahead on Sundays or somebody has to drive to Elkton, Maryland from Newark, Delaware.
Oh, yes.
At fucking 9.30 when nobody's sober already.
That defined my, like, high school years is like the...
Connecticut was the same way?
Yeah, and, and, like, everything closed by, like, 8 p.m.
On Sunday, specifically?
No, no. Sundays, they weren't open, and then everything else closed at 8 p.m.
Like, yeah, so you'd have to make, like, the midnight.
night run to New York
damn to get which wasn't
that far as like 15 minutes
oh yeah to go over the border
they're like at it's like
yeah every place like that like
I feel like if fireworks are the same way
it's like every like every border entry is just
like liquor work liquor store
and fireworks yeah there's a script of Newham
yeah let me get some liquor works
nah I've only had a couple
few fireworks
you fucker
some liquor works going
there's a strip of 95 that goes through
New Hampshire and I think it's only like a couple miles
and it's just there's a liquor store
I think in both directions
It's too big barns
It's like two big barns
And it's all fireworks and liquor
That's so funny
It's crazy
Yeah I didn't know
I guess what state
I guess that's if you're going to Maine
Maine has the stricter law
So New Hampshire's like
Come on in and we'll sell it to you cheap or something
I think it's Massachusetts.
Is it?
I think so.
Because you forget, Massachusetts, it's all those, like, Puritans.
It's the hardcore.
That's why everything's white.
Not racially, but, like, though, houses and stuff.
I was picturing the painted house.
That, too, that too.
Right, yeah.
Yeah, I think they're the ones.
Yeah, they're the ones that started.
They were, like, nut jobs.
And I think it just...
Yeah.
I haven't done much drinking in Massachusetts, I guess.
really not that much now but every time you were there you drank yeah and it doesn't seem like the
bar is closed anytime weird i don't think i ever bought i don't think i ever bought beer besides
in a bar in massachusetts yeah yeah just boston getting hammered yeah it's true but yeah the
sundays kind of blow yeah it's the same way in pa with uh-clock right now i think it's different
now that acmees to sell beer might be different oh though i don't know
no oh wait yeah i think you're i think you're right i always get jammed up at acme because
there's a little peek into my life but uh i sometimes i'll try to buy a single beer there and
they're like we can only buy like a six pack at the checkout or something like you can't buy like
a single beer well they sell single tallboys yeah they have like a free you you can't buy two
12 facts right that they've made they make you do two transactions which is like
where do you you think you're going to you think god thinks this is right like who are you worried
about how is this you're going to get into heaven because you made me do two transactions
it's also like no you know what trouble do you think you're stopping it's yeah yeah
why can you do you have to buy two tallboys or the equivalent of it's like a you have to like
make of like an ounce equivalent to something like that
Yeah, so it's so fucking weird
Yeah, I don't even know if it's tall boys
I think it's literally just like they have like a fridge
That has cans like this at least the one like me
Oh yeah, those are you have to build your own
I think you can't buy a single tallboy there though
Oh, well
I know what I'm doing later on Friday
I have an Acme employee
I need to apologize to
You gotta do
Acme too
Acme too I would
The last time I was at Acme
There was a lady who just tried to buy like a 20
four pack of water at like the liquor at the liquor checkout and uh she had like two screaming
kids and uh it was holding up the line the line was 60 people long because they were like you
can't buy that here you got to go to the grocery store part and she was like i'm not not buying this
right here and they were like all right and it was just like an old guy who was like i don't even know
how to like ring this we don't even have buttons for water
Did he make it happen that?
Yeah, he did.
He did.
That's such a, like,
and everyone had to wait.
Mothers think they're heroes.
They're just bothering everyone.
They're just being bitches.
Meanwhile,
the kid was, like, next to the, like,
the automatic door just, like,
stepping in front of it and it would open.
Yeah, breaking back.
Stress testing the acne.
Yeah.
Just, yeah, literally, it's like,
devastating seats by dropping, like, a bag into it over and over again.
Yeah, truly devastating to, like,
Like the operations that day, where it's like I had to like reboot the system to wring out water for the alcohol.
For one single mother with two rambunctious children.
One of whom broke the automatic door, by the way.
You got two kids.
You sure you don't want a beer, miss?
God.
Dude, I feel like I'm just now coming out of a hangover that I produced.
I was driving here.
A stress hangover?
Yeah, no, just.
Saturday, Sunday, I got absolutely
trashed.
Nice.
Straight.
And it's Friday now.
A scheduled, my girl's friends came in and we had a
like on the calendar for like a month.
We had like a 48 hour bender.
Okay.
Planned.
And it was crazy.
Went to the Phillies and the Eagles game.
Holy shit.
You did?
Yeah.
It was two horrible losses.
Were they both?
in the same day?
No, no.
One was Saturday night, one was Sunday.
And then met up with them after the game on Sunday when I was like, dude.
That was, well, also, I got to, because I was going to meet up with you on Sunday night.
And I texted you to see if you were still there, didn't get a response, got to the bar.
Brian Six was like, he was like, he was like, yeah, he went home.
He was like he couldn't
He could I could not
And then I was like
Oh I guess he went home
I was too bad
Like 15 minutes later
You texted me
You were at a different bar
Yeah I was like
There's no way
Well I was falling to sleep
How far did you make it?
I probably made it to about
6 p.m. 5, 6 p.m.
It was dark out
On Sunday
And that was a 1 o'clock game
Yeah
Okay
He started drinking at 10
in the morning in the morning no no no just went out to like got some breakfast at a bar
and just like you know starts throwing back yeah yeah a couple old fashions and yeah heavy stuff
you're fucking morning heavy stuff dude heavy stuff
so that I'm sitting at the bar falling asleep like I'm dying at one point Shane
I was watching the night games and at one point Shane and at one point Shane
just I went to the bathroom to take a piss
he just went to YouTube and put on a game from like
1997
I got back to my seat
I was watching the game I think I was watching the game for maybe
15 or 20 minutes
at what time
this was this was 6 p.m.
I guess it must have been like the end of the 4 o'clock games
and any fool do anything you were watching a modern
football game yeah for about 15
or 20 minutes and then with a retro jersey
then I saw like Jerome Bettis or someone like
in there and I was like they wouldn't

I saw a coach and a trench coat

This guy's nuts.
Do I have to re-up my freaking parking?
I'm so mad I had to download a parking app today.
I tried to use the kiosk.
I was always under the impression that it kind of like stopped, but I mean, I don't know, maybe it's worth it.
I thought it said to just do it.
Eight to midnight on the thing.
They really charged till midnight for fucking parking around.
on here?
Yeah, dude.
This is a busy,
this is a busy, busy,
busy neighborhood.
Yeah, Fridays particularly.
They get nuts.
Yeah.
Damn.
They get really nuts.
Dude, you also had a
like miraculous recovery too
because you showed back up.
I did use a little bit of
performance in the scene.
I did.
I had a little bit
of performance in it because I was
sitting next to Kyla
and falling asleep
and everyone was mad at me
and Kyle gave me a little
hit me with a little gina get a little gnaz
hit me with the gnaz
and it wasn't working which is when I was like
I got to go home oh god
and then it I went home
watered up chilled for a second
and then I was actually pretty good and came back
came back and I was like
came back Undertaker
yeah for real Undertaker because you came back
and it was like
this guy didn't even seem like
he seemed like he's had like maybe a couple drinks
It's pretty awesome
Is there any chance
That there are spots out there
That they tow from
No
No, no
They'll just give you a ticket
This app is fucked
Sorry man
I mean I'm well
We
One just on
Yeah yeah
I did not have to walk
Across a regular street to get here
Yeah yeah
You'd be fine
Okay
Yeah
All right
They're fucking with me man
He's fucking
First of all
They only have
A sparse amount
Of parking kiosk
to pay without downloading
I bet that's annoying
you have to like walk
and then you have to walk away from your car
kiosks are on their way out
they are deservedly so
yeah
but downloading the app feels like
you're it feels like
it's a violation of my
privacy my privacy
my autonomy my bodily autonomy
don't make me do this I don't want to look at my phone I can't
I was unable to consent due to the lack of
kiosks
This does not count as consent.
That's my formal statement to the judge.
The parking judge, it takes me two years to see.
But I have to come here once a month, every month.
What they should do is...
Your Honor, I was in a state of mind where I could not consent.
I was furious from being in traffic, and the kiosk was beyond 75 feet.
I had recently visited a day, a customer-facing soda machine that had a small handwritten sign that said,
no refills, I was not in the right state of mind.
Handwritten's insane.
Handwritten's wrong.
And like, that's like a prank.
It's not even a prank.
It was thin.
Yeah, like pen.
It was like, this guy's, that guy's been drinking too much cherry coke.
Someone put something up that looks official.
Also, in an establishment where you order a large and they seem to only have one size, soda.
That really bugs me.
If it's not free refills, then you have to have two different sizes.
Come on
I agree with this
And if it's
I mean if it's facing the customers
To fill up themselves
Then it is free refills
Yes
You gotta turn the machine around brother
Yes
Yeah yeah yeah
You put the gun in my hand
That's true
It's like dude
You give me a cup
And now you're complaining
That you're bleeding
From the fucking tummy
Huh
Look at you
You give me a cup
And an unguarded fountain
It's open season
Yeah
And it was guarded with some side-eye, but I got through the side-eye.
Yeah, that's, yeah, yeah, you can get over that quick.
I do that debate every time at Chipotle, like, what, like, how much lemonade, like, what does the lemonade to water ratio in my cup have to be to have this officially be a lemonade?
Right?
Oh, on the free cup?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you get the free cup.
I say 51%?
Yeah, I think so.
I think so.
If anything, officer, it was a lemon water.
Yes.
It certainly was not a lemonade.
Yeah.
They can use an extra spout if they want to make it just water.
Yes.
And then I mention I'm a Chipotle rewards member.
That's literally like the Fraternal Order Police sticker on your car.
He's one of us.
Yeah.
I got it on my phone.
I erase the parking app from Westchester to make room for it, actually.
They should, like, include, like, in the...
When you have to download parking apps for, like, various cities,
they should include, like, a betting function
where it's, like, which of these cars on this block
do you think gets a ticket first?
And then, like...
I think that's already, like...
I think there's an app that's doing that kind of shit.
It's, like, on the way to it.
Like, it's a bet on anything app.
Oh, God.
But we just needed to be hyper-localized.
I think like every
every block is going to need a block captain
slash bookie that is like
I mean just set it up
in charge of taking the
yeah you know he's got the ring cam set up
so he sees which cars actually do get ticketed
yeah yeah it's like a surf cam
yeah I can watch it anytime
yeah what's wildwood
yeah
wind's blowing in for
yeah check
it's head high
damn
there's a truck with a monster
energy sticker that guy's getting
fucked he's getting the ticket
no question that guy's got fucking
T tags on and they're all afraid at the sides
dude I
I was driving through New York City recently
and I forgot how like
well more than that
I feel like I've like lost my touch a little bit
with driving for
yeah from like not being in it
like I'm used
like I've kind of gotten used
to like Pennsylvania
like suburb Pennsylvania
and downtown Austin pedestrians.
You've lost, like, the necessary aggression.
Well, I forgot.
Yeah.
Get you around easier.
Yeah.
I also, like, in New York, if you just plow through a group of people, they will all get
out of the way.
Yes.
If you just keep rolling.
Yeah, yeah.
They know what to do.
They know how to function.
Yeah.
In, like, around vehicles.
You know what I mean?
Like, if you're taking a left through a crosswalk in New York, you can just go through them
and everyone will, like, stop and modify.
Yeah.
Slow down.
speed up like it's like a school of fish or go under the car
so funny but if you yeah in in austin if you
accidentally go through like if you if you stop to
like in front of the line you can kill 10 people
they want they don't know how to get out of the way they don't like
if you're not paying attention for one second you will
cremate
a guy got creamed yeah
cream
You will
You will just fully cremate
A homeless man
The homeless down there also
They're like
Yeah
The guy of death wish
Yeah it's like an old video game
Where they're just like
Proop
It just come through your screen
Oh yeah
Yeah
I think
I just realized
That was the first
I was just in Austin
And I ran in a car
And I ran in a Jeep wrangler
Because it was like cheap
And I was like
Never driven one
This might be fun
It sucked
I mean, it might just because it was a new car.
Do you get the waves?
Do you get the waves when you were driving around?
I did get a couple.
Yeah, Jake was in the passenger seat.
He was like, I saw you do that, by the way.
That's nice.
But what I did, I say, it's a rental.
It's a separate hands suck.
Stolen valor.
But I didn't like driving in Texas, and I didn't even realize that was my first
time driving in Austin.
I've been Ubering or getting rides the entire time I went to go in there.
That was, yeah, that was shitty.
Yeah.
So we were staying right downtown, too, so we had to go.
go out and deal with the pedestrian shit
and then come in and park in a fucking
fifth floor basement garage
with tiny turns and shit.
Yeah. Yeah, that kind of...
They have.
I mean, yeah, you're right.
Philly's kind of similar.
Yeah, Philly.
People just like chill in the street.
They don't quite get it.
You know?
Yeah, it's somewhere in between.
It's the middle ground.
Yeah.
They've got a little awareness,
but they don't expect...
Like in New York,
you expect someone in a...
car to like come kill you yeah true like on high alert foot yeah yeah yeah yeah my heels
don't touch the ground in new york city you know you're taking some chances
dude i saw i was driving i was in philly it was either yesterday or two days ago and i saw
it was like 8 a m and there were like two guys hammered and one had like a dog on a on like a chain
and he was trying to fight the other guy
and they like fought their way
into the middle of the street
and then the dog just like sat down
they were like hammered so they like kind of stopped
fighting eventually
they just it was like
do you think they were together at some point
or there's two random drunks
that they were like
it was like guys who were like
I think had gotten drunk together
and then like something happened
ready to brawl
yeah yeah drop the gloves
hang on to the leash
though the dog like came with him into the middle of the street and then the dog just like laid down in the middle of the street and the guy just was like he'd seen it before yeah and he just like let the dog chill for like an entire light he's just and his cars going by no no one yeah people were like trying to get around him but then the the guy he fought went to the other side of the street to get away from him and then he was like actually fuck that and he came back to like try fighting and then another drum
friend like waved him over and they like eventually got out of the street but it's like
I mean maybe that was how many people were in this drunk group was like four okay so there were
like two guys on the street trying to talk them out of it and then two other guys damn like over it must
have been like an overnight drunk like I hope I hope they didn't start at 6 a.m. I don't know
maybe they're working the I don't give a fuck when they started honestly true it's possible
Yeah, yeah, that's a good point.
Maybe they were getting ready for the Eagles game.
I don't think so.
I don't know what's worse.
Still being drunk at 8,
drunk enough to fight in the middle of the street
or starting at 6 a.m.
That's bar staff stuff.
Yeah.
Because you close up, you start drinking at 5 a.m.
Yeah, you go to a place that is open till.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, you start.
Or starts.
You're just getting fucked up at the bar
that you work at after you've cleaned everything up.
Then, you know, everyone's having a good time.
It's like seven
Feeling good
The sun's up
You start to not feel so good
That's a fucked up
Yeah you're not feeling good
And then all of a sudden
The people around
You start looking like enemies
Yeah someone says
I don't want to go to Dunkin' Donuts
And you go
What the fuck is your problem
Just come with me to walk my dog
Yeah right
I gotta go back to the apartment
And walk my dog
Then we'll come back here
And keep drinking
I don't want to do that
Which is
which was just outside it was just a corner
which actually sounds kind of
where was it like center cityish
no it was like it was like west
oh yeah so it was like
truly outside drinking
yeah the west
is the west still uh it's
real touch and go up there
it's touch and go it's like you go
you go south it's pretty nice
yeah a little like garden houses and shit
I know
yeah southwest yeah southwest like it's i feel like because you have some experience with south i mean
you have plenty of experience with south it's like yeah regular south though yeah i'm talking about
i'm talking about like like just south of market in west philly like yeah oh yeah you get those
fancy streets like a spruce yeah it's kind of nice spruce is kind of nice yeah up around like
45th 6 7th 8th yeah you're going from the hospital area
towards west
there's some fucking awesome
there's that one park and all the houses
there are giant porches
the streets are lined with huge trees
old trees
it's fucking beautiful area
and then you just go a little bit too far
and it's not... The house is still nice
but they're just a little bit not taking care of
yeah they're like...
You get to that place where they like firebomb that one
yes
the move
yeah the move house
MoveOn.org.
Yeah, that's still...
A lot of people don't know,
move on.org's your origin story.
That's going to be what the next Chicago bombing is called,
move on.org.
Yeah, man.
Blowing up,
blowing up like a...
What was it?
It was like a warehouse, right?
Or it was just a house.
There's a row of...
That's right.
It was like a block.
It was like a block.
Yeah, true.
I think they...
Yeah, and then they, like, dug a house.
in and so and they didn't have a lot of like they hadn't incorporated the military into the police
as much as they have now so they just had a helicopter they only had helicopter access and i think
they just dropped like a barrel full gasoline yeah it seemed like there was just a guy they'd
call something over and nothing really sophisticated back to basics guys yeah surely they'll see this
and leave.
We've been up here for a minute.
This is a thick rope.
And I did not sharpen my knife before this.
Yeah, just with his scissors.
I'm slipping off of it.
So, yeah, that was like eventful for me to see the fight.
I like seeing that sometimes.
Yeah.
It's like a bummer, a little bit, but it's also.
If nobody gets the shit beat out of them,
it's usually fine to see.
And that's what happened.
So it was like,
oh,
this is like nice,
kind of.
Mm-hmm.
It's like these guys,
they'll be fine in like five minutes.
Mm-hmm.
You know?
Yeah,
it's just a scrap.
Just a scrap.
It's like,
yeah,
it's like when you see
like hyenas and lions battle
and they both get away
like kind of okay.
Yeah.
It was just like,
yeah.
None of the cubs got eaten
a couple hyenas found out a little bit.
Yeah.
They're going to heal.
Yeah.
They got some cool scars now.
It was like,
One roofer is like mad on his way to work.
It's nothing.
Yeah.
Everyone's okay.
I got to see a little bar scuffle recently.
I was outside smoking a cigarette and just walked away from the entrance 20 feet.
And by the time I was turned around, two guys were going on one guy.
It looked like.
Damn.
Or at least two guys bounced out of there after it went down.
And then already the guy who got beat up was across the street.
And he was on the phone with the cops.
All within like 60 seconds.
damn and swim move
the guys and the guys who were together
bounced and then eventually that guy came back in
waiting for the cops and then he went into the bathroom
and saw his face in the mirror
and that was before I got a look at him and he like slam the door
and yelled fuck and he did get a couple
nice ones to the eye he was a little bit fucked up
that would be a fucking kind of cool way to do UFC
what have the cops come with no ref but you do have a phone
that's so funny you can bounce out of the act
That's so funny.
Oh, my God.
Like, if it starts going bad, your only hope is to call the police and they can come in and bail you out.
And that those guys run away in their convertible.
It would be some guy.
Yeah.
Just waiting.
And then there's one guy in the stands with the phone.
He's like, if you can get to me.
Dude, the excitement.
The excitement.
I mean, if they called the police, but then, you know, they got the next, like, maybe, let's say, two, three minutes.
They got to hang out in there and.
Oh, my God.
Yeah, they have to.
And survive, like, till the police show up.
Yeah.
Yeah, the cops are, like, we're pretty busy.
Yeah, yeah.
It would be, like, another part of, like, the game of it.
Yes.
Yeah, you know, you got to wait.
It's like, you're in trouble because.
The play-by-play would be like, oh, the cops are four minutes away.
Dude, yeah.
Four minutes.
Yeah.
And it's also just like a regular.
911 line so it's like they don't know when it's coming you're four minutes away but there

Dude, there is something funny.
Like the guy getting into a fight
coming back into a bar is
or just someone like having something
like coming back in afterwards
is like that's just a funny reentry
try to be like
so he went into the bathroom
and in the meantime a cop
came in and asked
the bartender like
what's going on somebody called is that guy
here and she knew he was in the bathroom
and I was like he laughed
she just didn't want to deal with a fucking cop
because she knew that they were going to ask for like the footage
and that's exactly what he did he came out of the bathroom
as the cop was, like, getting in his car.
It was almost the perfect fucking closing doors, missed opportunity.
But even the cop was like, dude, it's fucking, it's one o'clock, it's closing time.
You're not getting the footage tonight.
Right.
And then I was in there the next day for an Eagles game.
And the cop came in and get the footage.
So they're doing their part.
Yeah.
That's nice.
That's one you get excited for as a cop.
We're going to get the footage
At a place that serves wings
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're not going to
You're not going to put the extra effort in to go
You know
Just look over a crime scene
You're like, I want to see the footage
I want to see these two guys scrap
You got any other angles you can show me
Yeah, I wonder when he hung up with the copy
He's like, I'm going to go back into the bar
Just
I'll be in there when you get here
And yeah, then you get to like watch
You get to watch like the night at the bar
Until it happens
yeah slow it down play half speed yeah dude i i went on like i one time years ago i got hit by a car
on my bike i fucking smoked and i was like jesus and it was like in an area where uh well i got
hit and then the guy who hit me uh he like he was on the phone and was ever tell you guys
i like i got hit by a car the guy was on the phone and i was like hey what the fuck and then he
backed up and he rolled his winning down and he's like hang on one sec and then he just
pulled off he like started to point to you yeah yeah he like hung up he like pretended to hang
up the phone call and then like left and then a car behind him pulled up and they were like
you know that guy just hit you and I was like yeah no like damn that sucks
so there was literally no one but then someone was like that's brotherly love right there I know
Damn, that sucks.
And then, uh, I know.
And I was like, all right, well.
I scream's getting warm.
Got to get this back into the freezer.
Time to head home.
Yeah, so then someone, I forget.
I like, I was like, all right, well, I guess I'm just out of luck.
And then someone was like, it was, like, it was in like a place where there were houses and apartment complexes and stuff.
So you could, like, ask for them to check the footage.
And I went to, like, I went to, like, I went to, like, four.
four houses trying to get footage and they were like it was I just remember that being like
kind of fun to like try and get it I only got it at one apartment complex the others were like
houses that like had cameras but they were like it's pointed in like a different direction yeah
it's just like it never ended up working but I remember getting to watch the footage in like
the basement of this apartment complex and it was just like it just didn't like didn't catch
thing so I was like you hit the car look like you broke their windshield yeah just
actually can you delete this footage it looks pretty bad yeah
were you like the door guy or something like the janitor have to take you down to the
well dude that's apartment basement that was the other weird like I eventually got
passed off to someone who works like in the basement but at first it was just like a lady
like parking at the apartment complex and I was like I was like I got hit by a car
yesterday can i and she like took me to like the basement of the building and then there
was like a guy down there who was like he's like i don't really know how to work this but i think
you can like see something what was the issue with the footage was it too grainy to get a license
played or did it was like too far up the street or something so it was like you could see the car
like leaving yes so you like couldn't see me get hit but then you could see the car pulling
away so it's like well here's i know that's evidence but it does nothing
for us and we also don't get any license plate footage so i just had a look damn just got yeah got
rolled on dude on the phone hang on yeah it must have sounded crazy too because he was on the phone
and then it was like me like ah did you get injured i like fucked up my leg a little bit because he like
he like almost like ran me over so it was like because he was like turning and he was just like not
looking so he like hit like my right leg and like fucked up my knee a little bit but i was like
it was like a week or like a couple weeks of like just like soreness yeah it wasn't like a
permanent injury thank god but yeah that's a tough yeah wrecked my bike that sucked my bike
yeah how much it was an expensive bike it wasn't like crazy expensive but i just had to like
get a new one they were like this is torch you gotta just you know
So that, yeah, that was a real bummer, but bike shopping's intense.
I know, yeah, especially now going to, like, just a regular bike shop.
It's, like, all shit that's, like, made for people who actually bike.
You can't get, like, just a regular going around town, not for exercise.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's hard to find those.
It's, like, kind of like, like, trying to buy furniture.
You know what I mean?
Where you, like, you go, like, I just want a cheap version of that thing that looks,
good.
Why don't you make the thing that looks good just cheaply?
Yeah.
And I will buy it.
I know.
And then it's that thing where it's like I can either buy the thing that looks like
shit or spend $10 million on the, like, what is going on?
Yeah, the most expensive.
Bikes were over $1,000.
I was like, and that's, I think, a low-end regular bike.
Yeah.
I think you can get some stuff for like $500 that will get you buy.
Yes.
If you're just doing errands in a city
But even then you have to interact
With like all the bike shop people
And they're really like
I feel like every time you're like
Can I just get this?
They're like
I know
I fucking embarrass myself
This guy doesn't even know what bikes are
Yeah I like it's literally
It's like a dude who looks like he lives in Zion
In The Matrix
And he's like
He knows everything there is to know about bikes
And then it's like
You don't
Yeah and I'm just like
I'm truly an idiot of inexperienced like I would suck it sucks that I'm coming into his place of work for a children's toy yeah dude yeah it's like I just want I just need a thing to like ride to work yeah and he's like that's I can't do I can't help you dude every just just asking for like yeah I just need like a bike that's going to be like durable and gets me gets me around the city it's like it it feels like you're talking about what's the difference between communism and
socialism like they get so deep into the weeds they're like that bike doesn't even exist and
you're like it definitely does I swear I think my brother has one that's like kind of got like
it's not a pure road tire it's almost like a little bit of like a off roady thing and then it's
just like a normal frame and they're like yeah I don't even know what you're talking about man
like it's always that kind of stuff and you're like what's a frame that would fit me and they're like
I don't know.
How do you sit?
I don't, I don't, how are you supposed to, like, for a normal sitting guy, that's my height, I want a bike that's not a road bike, but not a mountain bike.
That's what I want.
And they're like, that's going to be like $6,000.
And you're like, well, what's the baseline version of that?
yeah it's like a car yeah i think you want a car
yeah i'm just gonna buy a bike online then that sounds like a miserable experience
yeah it's a yeah it's a bummer they're like yeah it's like if you go and like get
shit fixed they're really helpful because they're like if you already own the equipment yes
yeah because you go in and they're like oh yeah that's like it's it becomes suddenly the
cheapest thing it's like oh yeah it's like 12 bucks yes what yeah where's the that what what is the
What is expensive on this thing?
I know.
Yeah, it's always like the fork or whatever.
And they're like, yeah, I mean, like, you can go aluminum, but you're going to feel the road a lot.
And you're like, what does that mean?
I was looking at e-bikes, and I feel like there's e-bikes that you can get for $1,500.
I bet.
Yeah.
China's got that hot as nice as fucking.
Yeah.
A road bike that you'd spend five grand on, but it's still like, yeah.
If it's fucking moves for me, it seems like it's worth a little bit more than the man-powered one.
Yeah, dude, I've been having, I've been having some, me and the African delivery guys in Philly have been kind of in a little, it's a little bit of a tiff because they use the bike lanes and they all have e-bikes.
And they also, I just have a regular bike.
And they have like, I'm getting honked at a lot by e-bikes.
Like with like Uber Eats
No it's like
Yes it's that
They have an electronic horn now
Yeah
Whoa
And I'm getting like honked out like a lot
And then I'm like
Purposefully trying to
Fuck with them
Yeah yeah
Hold up the lane
I'm like just go in the car lane
Yeah
If they can go 25 miles an hour
And they belong in the car lane
Yeah once you're under power
Yeah
Yeah
You get in the car lane
So I'm getting yelled up
A lot of guys
That's crazy
In like fake Louis Vuitton
Like sweatsuits
It's a real
You gotta start carrying a chain
And just swinging a thing
Just swing a chain
Road rash
Yeah
Bro
It's a great game
Yeah it is a great game
But it is wild
That they put in bike lanes
And then they just made
motorcycles
Go in the bike line
I know
And I get it
Completely undermined
The rationale
Yeah it's
Yeah there should be like
Amish bike lane
And then like
African guy bike lane
That's super
Yeah, they will fucking whip on those things.
But, yeah, an e-bike would be nice.
It's like, some of the city bikes now are e-bikes.
Yeah, but they, they're only pedal assist.
Oh.
You have to move it up.
Well, you have to move your feet still.
Oh, shit.
Yeah, these are, let's go.
Oh, okay.
One, two, three.
One, no, no, no, no, no.
Yeah, I found that out the hard way.
I was riding helium one time from Fishtown, and I got on the electric one thing,
and it would get me there without getting sweaty.
shit it got me even sweater because it's heavy as fuck like it's helping you out a little bit but
it's also heavy as shit yeah they're very heavy like turning it and stuff is hard yeah and like
trying to pop a curb is like a fucking risk a big risk it's like a tank dude yeah true like if you
don't get that fucking wheel over the tie over the curb oh yeah it's like going to be a car crash a
one-man car crash those things are so heavy we've been ever since we've been playing mario car
We've been playing Mario Court
I guess
Yeah yeah
I think Mario World
Yeah shout out
Shout out Sam
Thanks for the Mario Court
Yeah
But now
It's so fun
It's like the open world one right
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah now if I'm driving
Or I'm on a bike
I'm kind of behaving
Like it's Mario Kart
Yes
And it's I'm like
I got to chill
You can feel like
Your left pointer figure
You're trying to shoot shells
At them and stuff
It's just your
Drop bananas
That'd be sick
If you drop some bananas
Dude, I was driving home a couple of nights ago
And I, I
Pause, I ate a banana in the car
And I was like, I had the peel
And I was like, I might do this
And I was driving with a peel in my head
And then I said, fuck it
I'm going to the turtle shop
And I bought a case of turtles, dude
I painted them blue
Holy fuck
Leader bomb
Yeah, so
I don't know
Can we get into any games and shit or no
No, I just realized that I have like a subscription
To the iPhone
Arcade
Oh
So I was like what is good in there
And I was like oh here's a skateboarding game
But it just goes straight across the screen
Left to right
It's like
Oh it's like the
I had a version of Tony Hawk Pro Skater
Yeah
Two I think
On my fucking iPhone 4
that I could use actual controls
Like which corner was the control
And I could play a regular video game on my phone
And I feel like that was 10 years ago
And now it's worse
Yeah, games are worse
Yeah, it's like the helicopter game
It sounds like
Well, because they're going for
They're probably going for quantity, not quality
They're probably just spoon to them
I mean I've said this too many times
I've complained about it too many times
But the fake games
In the advertisements on Instagram
do you guys see these ads
I must get them nonstop yes
because I always watch him where it's like
Johnny Galecki is the fucking spokesman
Wait I have see okay yeah
And like yeah there's like a king
And you have to like solve a puzzle
To get the stones to fall through
So that he can get out or whatever
And you download the game
It's not the game
Yes I don't understand it
It's like why not everyone
You clearly make
a thing that everyone wants to play.
Yeah, we're all trying to download this game
that doesn't exist. Yeah, why not just
make that game? I don't know.
Right, just repeat the advertisement
for an hour.
Dude, they've gotten layers of
psychotic with it too on the ads
because now
people have found out that they're fake
games. So they'll have
an ad that someone being
is literally the same
as the ad you saw last time
Like all the action in the game is that.
But it'll be a real person pretending that they're actually playing.
And going like, oh, yep, a lot of people say these games are fake.
I'm going to try this game.
Oh, my God.
I'm playing and I'm trying to get the thing.
And oh, no, it didn't work out.
And, well, game's definitely real.
And you're like, you went through all this trouble.
Yeah.
Instead of just making the game that is clear.
Yes.
That probably costs.
There's no point where you can get to.
the game that they show on the TV
it's never going to happen
I don't think so
it should be the first thing you experience
when you download the game
it's not if you're asking me
I promise you it's not
I know I think you're right
and then I think maybe if you pay
like if you do like a million dollars
with the in-app purchases
you might be able to get
something that looks
almost
almost a little bit like
what they show in the commercial
yeah
it's the most what
when you pay
$10,000 it's just the most
pixelated commercial
shit. I guess this is kind of
like it. It's like, yeah.
Yeah, I've got a game
idea. Guy gets
frustrated with phone game, finds the
address of the video game maker,
and drives there with a gun.
Somebody needs to kidnap Johnny
Galucky is what needs to happen. That's when we're going to get
answers. Kidnap anybody that doesn't
advertise me for this company.
And we'll get some fucking answers. Time up.
I thought about trying to
like search around and find one of the people
fake playing the game and actually like
berate them? Be like
who? No, no, not even berate them. Be like
who contacted you?
What's your point of contact?
It's just give me one email address man.
Yeah. I guarantee you it's like a
hot AI Instagram bot lady
who you know what I mean?
Oh, oh who's like pretend you're playing this game
and I'll introduce you to my friends. She thinks you're cute.
Dude, that I would like
I would, you know what? I would give it up to him. I would give it
up to them if they were if they had like a, if they
had like a gamer girl with fat tits doing it but it's literally just a guy yeah it's just a guy
yeah that sucks at least gave the people what they want yeah it's unbelievable it's not even
shown it's like one of those things where you're like yeah you like had to turn in a paper in
high school and you just like you just lied to the teacher for forever and like did all of this
shit instead of just writing the paper right you eventually had to do anyway yeah exactly
It's like, you're going to pay.
Why did I do this?
Yeah.
You're paying this, like, random person,
probably close to what it would cost a guy to at least make one level.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Would you pay $20 for the game?
You'd pay $10.
You'd be embarrassed to say, actually, how much I would pay for the real game.
If I knew that it was a, yeah, I would buy, I would pay Xbox prices.
just to see if it's a correct kingdom heart, whatever it is.
Game.
Royal Kingdom, I think is what.
Royal Kingdom.
If they eventually made the game,
I think at this point,
look,
they've gotten me so bad.
They must be getting other people.
They're going to wait until you guys are all on podcast
saying,
I'll pay anything to play the real thing.
Oh, and it's a free ad.
You want $1,000?
Oh, my God.
I, for real, Royal Kingdom,
I will do anything to actually play.
the game. I do. I get so frustrated. Also, those ones where like the zombies are coming and you have to like choose to like add three guys or like or shoot them down on one side. Yeah. Yeah. It's like I I want to play that. Does that game not exist? That game does not exist. God damn. That's a fake game. At least every one of those ads. I watch all the way through. Same. I do not skip those motherfuckers at all. Dude. I'm like get him getting rid of. Dude.
It's true.
And, yeah.
I watch it multiple times.
If it plays on a loop, I watch it multiple times.
And it seems like it would be the most satisfying thing to actually play.
Yes.
And stressful.
Can me get my blood a little bit elevated, you know, my doctor said get my blood pressure up.
Yes.
See?
Yeah.
Elevate the heart rate.
This is exercise.
Yeah.
Holding my phone.
Yeah.
That game's 100% fake and they go through the wrong gate and they lose four guys.
Yeah.
And you're like, that's not real.
I know.
But it gets you so.
pissed off that you keep watching yeah to see if they'll recover from it and then like
I think that's how much I've watched them it like I said I know yeah the moves yeah
so when I see another guy fake playing I know that it's that he's not fucking doing it right
no it's like I know that this is the ad and he's just pretending he's playing over the ad
I think I learned this years ago like getting ads for games and then it doesn't end up being
Even if it was just a fucking shoot a thing at this
And try to pop these things
And that's not the first thing you see
When you get the game
That has caused me to not download
Any of those ad games since
Yeah
But I completely forgot about the reasoning
Maybe it is
Maybe it's like maybe yeah
Maybe they're coming from the opposite direction
Where it is like a CIA program
To like not get people to buy candy crush
Oh wow yeah yeah
Like it's like you
You create a gaming experience that is so awful, like add to game experience that is so painful, you know?
That it prevents people from buying games and playing them and getting stuck on their phones.
I mean, I'm still looking at it.
I'm still watching the ad.
I'm still watching the ad six hours a day.
God, dude, this is, yeah, it's truly eight and a half last week.
I got the eight and a half hours of watching the ad last week.
that's an average
it's a weeky average
eight and a half hours
of watching the world
it's like Chinese madman
Dong Draper
oh fuck
it's like we make
the phone commercial
excellent
yes
and then
and the game doesn't exist
the game doesn't even exist
and it's fake
it is it's like you just
just just watching kids
like stream out onto the street
to play kick ball
after
a royal kingdom betrays.
They're playing stick and hoop, like everything's back,
kicking the can.
You know what, I'm off games forever.
Well, now this sounds American,
which is kind of nice.
Yeah.
This is like a Bud Light program.
Yeah, it's like Miller Corps
advertising agency to get people off their phones
and back into bars where they can fight real people.
Yeah, it kind of would be a sick program.
If you just loaded like every dating app with Bob,
and like made them like unusable yeah people start going back to bars yeah out into parks
and throwing parties yeah you know what I'm feeling you I'm with him random dude yeah party
with just like just invite whoever yonder bag parties yeah dude parties don't even leave your phone
at home bring your phone just know that you can't look at it and you really want to go magnetize it
Yeah, it's like, uh, yeah, what's like the, the neutralizer thing that like just, like,
ruins the signal.
Yeah.
Yes.
Dude, those were awesome.
Those, like, parties where it was just like, just people from the town are here.
Yes.
Dude.
Like, when I was in college, there were parties at just, like, houses.
Like, it was literally guys who, like, lived in the town that, yeah, near the college.
And they were, like, there.
We, like, rented a house and you can, like, have a, it's like a party.
And it's like a, it's, like, fucked up.
It's like a really fucked up party.
But it's like so, it's like fun.
Because it's like, it's just destroying everything and nobody even knows who lives there.
Yeah, it's like, yeah, there's, like, it's like an kind of empty house.
There's like people you like recognize from like the Jimmy Johns.
Like getting fucked up there.
It's so cool.
That was fun where you could just go.
You could just see a party happening and just take, you have beers in the rest.
Yeah, you can come in.
Just walking around.
It's so nice.
With 12 beers until you're down to two.
You're like, oh, one last party.
Yeah.
Yep.
One more party.
Yeah, I got one more.
Yeah.
Those nights always end bad.
Yeah.
They always end with a friend who won't stop yelling at the cops.
Yes, I was good.
She was about to say the cops come.
Yeah.
You got to leave.
They're not even being dicks.
They're just going like, look, you got to wrap it up.
We're getting complaints.
And everyone's like, okay, thank you.
We're all 20.
So thank you for not arrest.
us yes and then your one friend is just like you know what fuck you this is private property
dude they're just fucking we were out while they tase him he's like yeah already tied up in like
the crab oh dude like with the cuffs that reminded me of the mark sanchise thing oh yeah i've
i've only heard a little bit but it's crazy yeah what happened it's crazy yeah what happened
He was drinking snake juice to start.
It sounds like, what the fuck is he on?
Yeah, he was sitting next to Kyla.
And he, dude, he fucking, he apparently, like, at some, like, a loading dock attacked, like, a 69-year-old man.
No, what?
And he was, like, parked in his own car.
Yeah.
The guy was, like, a door-dash driver or something.
And he was, I guess, between deliveries.
Yeah.
In an alleyway where you probably wouldn't be walking down if you weren't drunk and had to piss behind a dumpster.
Yeah.
And then I haven't seen a video angle either, but I heard that, like, he went at the guy.
The guy sprayed him with, like, bear spray or pepper spray or whatever.
Didn't slow him down a little bit.
Jesus Christ.
Mark Sanchez gets on him.
He just is like, shit, shit, and then, like.
He stabbed him?
Yeah.
Dude, there's, I have seen footage of Sanchez walking home.
Sanchez got stabbed.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
So did the driver, the driver had the knife on?
Yeah, I think so.
But he got, the driver got a laceration, like a, something, Sanchez must have got the knife at some point.
Yeah.
And the driver's face got cut, or it got cut somehow.
Whoa.
Yeah.
Well, it got, yeah.
That's right I heard.
Well, like, nasty disfigure?
I don't know.
He's going to heal up just fine.
There's all sorts of technologies.
Yeah, yeah.
Modern medicine's a miracle.
It'll be fine.
Yeah, it's very good.
really funny that would be he's also about to be a fucking millionaire over and over
dude that's true he's about to sue the the Sanchez still is an analyst like that
guy's still yeah oh yeah that's why you used to have bread yeah mother fucking true
door-dash driver that's wild everyone thought the butt fumble would be his lowest
point nobody saw this coming he had he had completely redeemed himself from the
butt fumble.
Oh, my God.
And now he's back.
I mean, truly, yeah,
it's like turning into like a saga for him
that is worthy of like
a more popularized,
dramatized storyline.
That's crazy for that
Dordas driver to be like
dropping something off.
He's like, who's this drunk guy?
And oh,
stab Mark Sanchez all the whole time.
Stop attacking you.
Oh, an ex, an expert,
a former professional football player.
it's such a wild like out of the blue like because it it feels like a thing that you
could imagine happening like cat williams yeah or like jimmy fallon yeah yeah someone with a little
bit of a record yeah but cat william or jim phallon two people on opposite ends of the bell
spectrum but guess he's in the middle there that's mark stancho sitting right up top right at the
top of the bell curve between cat williams and jimmy fallon lies mark
Mark Sanchez.
Yeah.
That's true.
Yeah.
The Cat Williams fight.
That guy is about 50 years too old.
Mark Sanchez from the rafters.
Yeah, for real.
Oh, my God.
And I can't believe he got stabbed.
He's okay?
I think he was like, he's more in trouble now than he is anything.
He went to the hospital.
The cops, like, arrested him, like, in the hospital.
Dude.
Oh, my God.
Just being drunk.
and being, like, kind of famous.
Dude, he had a game.
He had to call a game on Sunday.
Oh, and he was like the night before.
He was not like a retired, like, you know.
He was like working on his own life.
He like, he had, he was calling a game for Fox on Sunday.
Yeah, like he was in town for that, right?
Oh my God.
And he got fucking stabbed.
Got to love a dude who's still, uh, late 30s and getting fucked up before work the next day.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, shout out, Mark Sanchez, I hope you're okay.
Got to give it.
to him for that.
Yeah,
it's awesome.
It's funny to think
of some of his buddies
at the bar going
like,
what I'm going to
Mark?
I don't know.
He always does
he's probably
Irish goodbye.
Irish goodbye.
I probably just went back
to the hotel.
That's going to be
where's my guy?
He's probably
snapping some fucking
door desk driver
behind the hotel.
No,
that's actually,
yeah.
Yeah.
It's,
what was he doing
those other times?
He said he went home.
Yeah.
Damn,
that actually,
I mean,
back to like the,
the phone games bringing people outside
like it does kind of remind me of like
an older football like an older football player
kind of story that's some old school shit yeah
got fucked up father that god it wasn't him
sending text to his people he wasn't supposed to
or being in DMs he wasn't supposed to
I like a good old fashioned this
actually be getting stabbed on the street
yeah yeah in downtown indie
where he was the provocateur
yeah because that that was that was the thing
but he would be like defending their
wife or something like that they like got stabbed beat the shit out of a guy and you'd be like man that
guy was tough his name he still is best the end of all time true yeah it's just like well i thought he
was door d'ornech never kept that thing on him too i guess yeah dude but had a weapon yeah i mean
had multiple weapons he deployed the spray that didn't work yeah the non-lethal didn't work dude he
tried to keep it civil all right yeah true oh my god this didn't do it
Spray's not worked in the fucking NFL or something.
Pull out the knife.
This guy stays in the fucking pocket.
God damn.
All right, guys.
Thank you.
Absolutely.
What a fun one.
Thank you for having us.
Apologies to the fans.
Apologies to Tommy for lying about.
Thank you, Tommy.
Thank you, fans.
That was a pretty bold maneuver.
I really thought we were going to do it last night.
I mean, yeah, we were.
It was, we were, we were so close.
To your credit in the morning and all day, we were doing it.
We were podcasting.
I was kissing my baby good night when you texted me, so it was a perfect time.
We were close.
But saying we're podding during the 11th inning was.
Dude.
I was out of line for that one.
That was, there's no way that's.
I should have read between the lines and solo.
was happening.
I'm sorry I ratted you out.
I got one last trick up my sleep.
Notre Dame in the national championship.
You're doing the pod?
100%.
We're doing a four-hour version.
I'm doing it right now.
Stop texting me.
You're interrupting.
Oh, my God.
All right, boys.
