He is actually going to eject a fan. Because bad things happen in Philadelphia, bad things. The fan jumped into the penalty box area. Joy it is to come to Philadelphia and stand here and dodge an ice ball. We, the Dallas Cowboys, had a sense of making time to do it. And we are live and recording here today. We're live. Hello.

Hello. Hello. Hello. Hello. Hello. Hello. Hello.

Bad, bad, bad day. No, no, I don't. I talked to you already about it. It's fine. Yeah. I had a rare good day.

Chop. I saw your executive function was firing on all cylinders. I felt dopamine today, Liam, when I finished a task. Wow. Yeah. Wow. Wow. I felt more dopamine today than I did when I graduated from Temple.

Yeah. I don't think Temple really brings people dopamine, dude. Dude, ADHD is a hell of a fucking thing. Where you get more dopamine by aggressively scouting Wikipedia when you're hyper-focused on something than you do, I don't know. Most people get from, and it's also less than what people get from doing good things like cleaning the kitchen this is the only time I get dopamine is doing something incredibly stupid

usually I hear that I think a lot of our listeners probably understand that I think podcasting is almost exclusively the domain of people who are neurodivergent at this point. Yeah. I was about to say, it's the only growth industry for neurodivergent people in America right now. Yeah.

Go online, man. Yeah, get yourself a podcast. Get yourself a gun. Get yourself a pod. Yeah, the yourself a podcast. Get yourself a gun. Get yourself a pod. Yeah, the gun too. You could podcast with the gun in your hand. Probably don't. You could do cool tricks.

Where the guy gets a podcast A video podcast Where he's holding a knife to his throat The whole time Is that before or after the one where you can have Sex with your friend at Street Fighter?

Oh, good question God damn it Yeah, that was a good one Uh-huh What if he had water warcraft but you could fuck isn't that just balder's gate yeah

I was gonna say that's just balder's gate I think when I was on radio free tote bag and we were talking about that like how I'm not used to being aggressively hit on and I'm oblivious to it in real life so when it was happening in the game I was oblivious to it in real life. So it was happening in the game. I was oblivious to it. Oh, yeah.

So everyone just trying to fuck. I was like, no, man, I was just being chill, man. I just yeah, I wanted to hang out. Like, come on. Like, show me your fucking secret magic garden. Oh, shit. You are. You think this is metaphorical.

Whatever Audacity is. Yeah, Yeah, whatever audacity is.

Yeah, so we have Roz on announcements. We just dropped a bonus episode, the history of football part two. Football. Football. With Jordan of the Sickos Committee. And we're going to have to do a part three, it seems like, because Jordan, surprisingly,

really only wanted to talk about college football. I only noticed the college game from what he said. Yeah, so we'll be doing the NFL side, the pro side of things. Maybe some Canadian and arena shit. But I don't know. Maybe they'll have to be four parts. Who knows? Who knows how long it'll take? You could talk about Pottsville.

I did in the beginning. Or is it Pottstown? Because I forget which one. Pottsville. did I forget which one Pottsville And the Anthracite football Yeah which was Stolen from us Is it in Canton now? I don't know

Pottsville Anthracite Football 1925 NFL Championship Trophy Controversy Pottsville Anthracite Football. Spelled it all wrong. 1925 NFL Championship Trophy. Controversy. It's in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Give it back, assholes. Bring it back. Bring it back. Bring it home. Could be worse. Could be in the British Museum. Yeah. Well, we're lucky because they're always looking out. And it was in the 60s when it was donated.

They were still on their shit. Put it in the British Museum next to the Elgin Marbles. Yeah. At the end of the day, the British Museum is just a rich guy's private... Like a bad guy in

Indiana Jones. It's just the British Museum is the bad guy. Yes. Unironically, though. Yeah. It belongs in a museum, just not this one. Yeah. That's a good new Indiana Jones plot, though.

The British Museum. Indiana Jones and the caper of the... Or no, the bother of the British the, the bother of the British museum, the bother of the British. Wow. You're going to try it, huh? Doing a oceans 11,

Indiana Jones crossover. Oh, that sounds like, you know what? I'd watch that. What do I say? Yeah, of course I'd fucking watch that.

Of course I'd fucking watch that with all the original actors. I'll put, I'll watch pretty much any garbage you put in front of me. I think like I've, you know, I, I don't know any better. I'm like a blind dog.

But yeah, so go listen to the episode before it's locked in the British vault. The Annals of History? Yeah, the Annals. Yes, that's how that's pronounced. The Annals of History. That's what I thought. Well, do you remember in the 90s they have commercials like this VHS of the Little Mermaid will go

in the princess, the Disney vault. Yeah. It will never be released again. No, it'll be released again just like every seven years. They had a schedule. Yeah. They have like all the princesses locked in the vault. There's not a bunch of room in there. That sucks. It's like fucking fallout in there.

Yeah, I'm trying to get that vault.'m trying to get the princess vault you know i mean you're married tom yeah no i just like movies dude oh okay tom oh so uh yeah so yeah go listen to that bonus before it's locked in the Disney vault. When they locked Anastasia in the vault, was she murdered by the Soviets by then? Or they just shipped? Well, she's not technically a Disney princess is the thing, right? So that movie was released by 20th Century Fox

prior to their acquisition by Disney a few years ago. She's not. I mean, she's now like technically a disney princess but she's not a disney princess does that make sense so she's like retroactively a disney prince i don't think she counts uh among the canon of classic disney princesses but i would have to ask my wife who's not here yeah we don't have an expert on board yeah i. I've always... Does it make me sick that written as a Disney adult? Yes, it does. I've always leaned towards the idea that Anastasia is retroactively a Disney princess. I think that probably makes sense just because Disney is, I assume, very sympathetic to the Tsar.

Yes. I would imagine. Yeah. Yeah. I just don't like how Turk-coded Rasputin is. They had to exhume her body and inter it in the Disney vault. Tomb of the Unknown Disney

Princess. Yeah, the Mickey Mouse Brigade stands watch. It's like it's like it's like how that you know how the Marines yell at you if you talk at the tomb of the unknown soldier. But, you know, it's Mickey Mouse. Shut your mouth. Just ramming you with a rifle butt over silence.

Respect decorum. He's got a bunch of enchanted brooms. Even worse. Got to watch out for those. Yeah. People don't know the most solemn oath of the Mickey Mouse Club is to forever protect the tomb of the unknown Disney princess. This is my enchanted broom. There are many like this one is mine, and they're continuously multiplying.

I don't know what to do. Please get these out of my house. The next controversy is Trump goes down there and he does... Yeah, I'm here at the tomb of the unknown Disney princess. It's more beautiful than I remember. More luxurious. It's the most luxurious tomb.

There are many princesses. The princesses were very good. Some say beautiful. luxurious tomb. There are many princesses. The princesses were very good. They're very, some say beautiful. Fucking stupid. Mulan, folks, they wouldn't let Mulan in. Mulan, I talked to she.

She said, President Trump, I respect your brain, but they will not let Mulan in. We will not let Mulan in. We will not let Mulan in. We will not kowtow to the CCP. It's just the

tomb of the unknown Disney princess. We found Pocahontas. Liz Ward in the background getting amused. We found her. She broke her oath. was a vestal virgin god damn it she threatened the entire country she brought she brought doom i fucking hate that movie dude pocahontas yeah i fucking hate that movie it is so like it is so like out of all of them like you were talking about like that really is just just so disrespectful yeah yeah like i i don't remember much of pocahontas but i remember just not being enthralled by it i mean i think that have you ever been enthralled by a dis movie? Yeah, you know, the best of that era of Disney.

Treasure Planet? No, it was probably Hercules. Great movie. That's a good one. That's my favorite Disney movie. Milan is also a really good one. You put a gun to my head and make me tell you my favorite Disney movie, Hercules is going to come out.

I remembered, like, I never liked them. Actually, my mom still thinks I threw out Beauty and the Beast. Beauty and the Beast beauty and the beast i didn't but she accused me of it um my brother liked it a lot but i did not beauty and the beast i couldn't get into i don't care for it yeah i hated i hated musicals as a kid i mean i'm not a huge fan of them now but if they're done right i could fuck ross likes a musical i do like a big fancy flamboyant mgm musical i need some tap dancing i need what i need uh i need gene i need gene kelly in there i need uh i need maybe some fred astaire you know it's it's a good time you like you like

blazing saddles but just but just the last 20 minutes. I don't care for the filth in the beginning. Just the last 20 minutes. That's some good cinema. That fart scene was disgusting. That fake lowbrow humor. That lowbrow humor. But Dom DeLuise pastiche there, that's where it was at.

That's where it's at, yeah. What is it doing the French something? The French mistake. Doing the French mistake. The French mistake. The French mistake. Go ahead. There's several French mistakes I can think of.

Yeah, France. Switching from a Germanic language to a Romance one. It's actually about the Maginot line. The French mistake was killing Robespierre. The French mistake, not realizing they could go around. Not going a little harder against the Huguenots. Yeah.

The French mistake was reconquering the Passe des Calais. It was not losing the Hundred Years War. French mistake was going to the wretched Isle of Britain.

You fools. you morons oh yeah that's yeah the fucking norman yoke have you ever have you ever speak of speaking of people who are actually mad about this have you ever been to the english subreddit the what so english is this like linguistic purist form of english where at the soft and fun end, it's you try and just use Germanic roots in English. Right. So. Okay. This sounds like an express way to Nazi shit. Right.

Right. So on the one hand side, it's like the most famous that started it was like this thing called uncleftish beholding, which was meant like an atom. Like, you know, something I couldn something an uncleftish beholding is something that can't be broken down. So it was just using and like hydrogen's water stuff. Which is basically what it is in German anyway. So they try and do that.

And then, so that's like, alright, we're just removing the French, the non-Germanic loan words, right? And then, anything before 1066, we'll get rid of, but there's a few in there, you know, like priest and table

came in through the Germanic side. But then it's like, well, we're going to remove anything that's not like West Germanic. So we get rid of the Norse words. Oh boy. Oh boy. Oh boy.

And then it gets, yeah. And then that's when you start getting the swastikas start appearing yeah and they are but they there are full of guys who are legitimately mad about the Norman Yoke they use that phrase unironically

just oh the French they ruined English they ruined it like motherfucker it was changing anyway they just got accelerated They ruined it. Motherfucker, it was changing anyway. They just got accelerated. And the French actually didn't change English that much, you idiot.

It's just loan words. They didn't change the phonology. Anyway, if you're not listening to this, if you're into English, I would imagine. Yeah, probably. We hope at least. Yeah. Well, anyway, so we continue the announcements. We got to get to the to the news section.

We have a discord. We mentioned it last episode. We got discord now. If you're a patron and so you link it up and it fucking if he's moderating it, I am. I am not touching another discord with 10 fucking foot. You are a model on there of last resort. But but Patrick is in May. So far, we haven't found a need. Because if you're going to pay money to come on our fucking Discord and cause problems,

I don't imagine that happening. Watch what happens after this episode drops. Oh, immediately. Yeah, immediately. Yeah. Voicemails calling 267-371-7218 give us your name and pronouns we actually got our first text message that wasn't someone calling us a bitch oh yeah yeah uh so we got that um that will be later today um when we go through listener messages uh but you can text us, too, at that number. Patreon.com slash 10,000 losses for our bonus episodes for our Discord.

For all the archived old excuses for why a bonus was late. If you want to read those. All right. Ready for news. How about those owls? How about the temple owls, Liam? Just shoot me now. Shoot me dead.

T for temple you. T for Temple, you. T for terrible. T for tyrannical. T for... No, they're not tyrannical because that would imply a position of power. That's a good point. That's a good point. We lost to then 16, now 15.

Beating us, apparently, jumps you up a rank. Good for you, Oklahoma. We lost 51-3. I always get real fucking sick of hearing boomer sooner yeah yep yep uh at least we scored a field goal um i don't know how i feel about forrest brock let let rucker's finest, Evan Simon. Get the rock. We're 134 out of 134 possible programs. Yeah. We are, by most metrics, the worst team in all of FBS football. And I've seen the power rankings of FCS.

Most of those teams would at least give us a run for our money. We are trash heap. We had like four turnovers. Didn't we have six? Oh, is it six now? I think it was six, yeah. Our quarterback was 12 for 25, 128 yards, no touchdowns, two interceptions.

That's not very good. No, that's not pretty good. That's not even slang in it. Yeah, you got to slang it. Because you're going to, as a friend of mine once said, if you're going to die, you might as well be a dick about it.

Yeah. Though we did have 69 rushing yards. Nice. Nice. Very nice. Nice. Four four fumbles four fumbles lost uh i fucking hate i just i hate this team now now to be fair we were never winning this game like no no no the Sooners are a good team like they're incredible they're top 25 like they're a very good team um and it's just kind of embarrassing that we're the we're the the like the where you normally slot your fcs team right uh not not great uh we're playing temple our temple's playing navy on saturday

um please that was our one of our wins last year no it was not no was it? didn't we beat them last year? I think we beat Navy yeah 32-18 so maybe we could do it again I think we're in Annapolis yeah we are

one of my favorite things about the stadium there is they have the war crimes it's like all the naval engagements after World War II it's just like the war crimes. It's like all the naval engagements after World War II. It's just like the Tonkin Gulf. It's like shit like, yeah, you know, right off of right off of Israel. You know, the USS Cole where that was off of Yemen. You know, it's just like wherever everything like a war crime or mishap happens.

Yeah, possibly both. Yeah, bothap happens. Yeah. Possibly both. Sometimes both. Yeah. Persian Gulf. The shoot down of what? The Iran air. Yeah. That was definitely on purpose. Monument to the PTSD suffered by the guy who shot down the airliner. Yeah.

Yeah. So I think that we should do what I do in College Football 25 whenever I score a touchdown against a service academy, which is immediately salute. So every time you score a touchdown, do a fucking exaggerated salute. That's pretty good. And I have to point out,

just for those who care about uniforms and grooming policy, that when College Football 25 first came out, the recruits at Navy, not the recruits, the midshipmen, had beards. Nope, can't do that. And a patch has since removed the beards. I mean, that is attention to detail. Yeah, so you got that. That's pretty good. Yeah, so I hope we win. I mean, it should. It's

Navy. We should win against. We're not going to, though. Yeah. But we should. Yeah, ideally. But we won't. We won't. We should. But at least there's other better football happening because the birds start up this Friday.

Go birds. Go birds. Go birds. How are we feeling about it? How do you feel? Did you answer me that first? Either one of you. How are we feeling? Raj, since you know the most about football, why don't you go first?

Yeah, obviously, since I know the most about football here, I think it's going to be, it's going to go similarly to a lot of seasons in that uh we're we're gonna be like just indomitable for the first like seven weeks and then just completely collapse oh like an old school red socks team yeah we're the eagles last year uh yeah yeah the the kind of redx team that makes my dad want to fucking jump into the Charles. They are going to get our hopes way up before the entire city commits seppuku in December or so. Yeah, I was talking to Kurt and she was like the Chad Kelly, not Chad Kelly, he played quarterback at Ole Miss. The Chip Kelly years were actually really good.

And I was like, you have you have Stockholm. Yes, that syndrome yes that is what that is um oh yeah for sure um the uh now now a tidbit's writing in my brain stockholm syndrome which is not real by the way um and the the guy was nicer to the guys he took captive Than the cops were And that's why a lot of the people that were captured Sighted with him over time Because he was nicer than the cops

Fair enough Yeah, see also certain events in the Middle East Yeah So yeah, the Eagles are playing the Packers in Brazil. Oh, yeah, we got to do the rest of our predictions first. I think the birds actually do better this year. You'd hope so, right? I think so.

I think the skill positions are good. I think if they've made the right changes, I think if we start off with like – if there's like four straight losses, I think Sirianni's gone. I think that's probably true. I think that could happen. I think he is on the hot seat. And, yeah, I don't know.

I think an 11-6, 12-5 season is completely within the possibilities. Right. What do you think? I'll buy that. I'll buy that, dude. I think that that's probably about right. Yeah. So they're in Rio for this playing the Packers, which we talked about before.

I'm not so sure how I feel about. I think it's a bit silly. Yeah. I mean, cool. You want to spread football around the world. Yeah, that's fine. But do like an exhibition game. Right.

Because no one watches preseason anyway but they might yeah uh so i found a fox news article saying saying that the team was told not to leave their hotel i don't know how true this is i saw that as well because of the crime it it i i can't imagine they're in like you know in the favela a yeah, you know, a favela. Yeah, they put them in a favela. Come on. I like we got to make them do drills up and down the steep streets. You know, honestly, they probably be treated well there.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. No one comes here unless they're doing right wing like media. So, yeah. Or they're like doing like a weird kind of non-profit bullshit Yeah, or like a YouTube travel vlog Showing the worst parts of the world Favelas, Kensington, Pyongyang

All wrapped into one Yeah Darius Slay was complaining apparently all wrapped into one. Yeah. The, uh, yeah. So, well, Darius Slay was complaining. Apparently they told us we can't do not to leave the hotel. We can't do much because the crime rate's crazy. I'm,

and this is a quote from Slay from the Fox news article. I'm like NFL. Why y'all want to send us somewhere where the crime rate is high? We, and we out the country, uh, you know, the first thing people are thinking is like some terror

could possibly happen. He said, I told my family, do not come down here because I'm not going to be nowhere to be found. I'm going to be in the hotel chilling, minding my business, playing my game after a long nine and a half hour flight. Okay, Darius. Okay, man. You gotta watch

out. Rio de Janeiro is a well-known hamas hot spot play in sao paulo but sao paulo excuse me even worse oh my god of course this is fox news right i would like i would love to know what it's actually like uh i'm sure there's plenty of of of players who are brave enough to go out there and experience Brazil. Sao Paulo is like, you know, it's a global city. It's not like you go there and are instantly killed. Right.

Sao Paulo is the most popular city in Brazil. I don't think I knew that. Yeah, it's an alpha world city. It's an insane thing 11 million fucking people 11 that's too many people that's new york city i know and new york city is too many people i've been there this is not this is not this is not eco-fascism that is just like a brain breaking at scale you imagine south how south philly is just continuous row houses sao paulo is the same thing just with continuous 20-story buildings.

Jesus. They don't have any tall ones. They're just all about 19 to 25 stories. That's weird. Oh, it's twinned with Toronto and Tel Aviv. And Chicago. You're not, Roz, you're not wrong. I'm looking at the cityscape.

It is all 20-story apartment blocks. Yeah, that's weird, man. Yeah. Or towers. Just, that's weird, man. Yeah. Or towers. Just loads of them. Just everywhere. Every building is 20 stories. No more, no less.

I guess that's good, right? Dense? It's great if you're an elevator mechanic. Lots of business. Hopefully they're built around transit. Yeah. Oh, yeah. You have to in a city like that you'd say that you say well that's a good point that's a good point um look up uh global city karachi for like oh yeah horror karachi which i believe was rated the most dangerous city for tourists or something like that Which I don't know who makes those rankings

I probably really paranoid people Well who? It's Pakistan's most ethnically religious diverse And one of the most progressive and social liberal cities in Karachi So that sounds like a place that's better That sounds good to me It has no mass transit Yeah that sounds bad

Yeah that's not good No we fuck with Karachi because there's a guy in karachi that has a there's a gram masala cheese steak he's got a philly there's a he's obsessed with it he's obsessed with philly i remember reading about it the the last year we went to super bowl um oh yeah last time we went to super bowl um yeah no we fuck with karachi okay yeah we got to go get the gram masala cheesesteak. That sounds like a really good idea. That's a good selection of spices there. Yeah.

Yeah. Shouts out, Karachi, if you are that guy, please let us know. See if we can mail us something. Yeah. Mail us. Send me a cheesesteak in the mail. Yeah. DHL that shit.

Oh, DHL will deliver anywhere, man. Yeah. DHL that shit. Oh, DHL deliver anywhere, man. Yeah. Yeah. We'll just maybe catch a flight, drop it out the back. Something like that. I don't know.

Just airdropped cheesesteak drone cheesesteak delivery. This is the future that Jeff Bezos wants. Put it on a tiny rocket and send it in a ballistic trajectory. Just a fucking NORAD blows. No, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, cheese steak return vehicle. I had to send out some decoy cheese sticks. Yeah,

and actually it's designed so that the ablator vegan ones be a blader as as as it's the heat shield is ablating away, it also heats up the cheesesteak so it's at perfect temperature when it arrives. Oh, that's smart. That's smart.

That's thinking with the brain head right there. I got to make that in Kerbal Space Program. Kerbal Space Program mod guy who follows me. You do the blue dog mod. Yo, go make that.

Shouts out to, was it Matt Mozenski or something? That's another Polish guy. You're all Polish. Not me, though. No. Some of us are honored with that ancestry. Thank you.

Yeah. Excuse me. Well, the Nazis didn't like either of us so we could we could we could have that solidarity yes um sixer stadium bullshit won't stop yeah they're talking about camden they're talking about camden now and uh the state of new jersey is offering these big tax incentives and i i i mean i don't think they're going to go for it, but this is just another piece of drama. I think they're going to use it to play against, against the city.

Like, well, if you don't, we'll go here. Yeah. I mean, I could see Sherelle Parker upping the ante on this one and just suddenly offering massive tax incentives now.

And that's going to like remove one of the big arguments in favor of the stadium which is no tax pay or money yeah well how about we take down all the bike lanes around the area and uh we won't patrol for duis oh we'll get we'll get to that yeah i mean that that that would be that would definitely be uherelle Parker type idea. Yeah. And as far as I can tell, she is 100 percent committed to getting this stadium done. Yeah. I mean, she's old fashioned mayor in the sense that she thinks the worst thing that could possibly happen to her is losing a sports franchise. Right. So as far as I can tell, I mean what what's happening here is harboring

things to come i mean we're going to start offering tax incentives we're going to start doing a whole bunch of dumb shit um you know depending on how far the sixer stadium is actually in like progress at the moment behind the scenes i don't know very much but and there's this like there's like now i'm seeing this online that that people are accusing the inquirer of being in comcast's pocket for simply publishing pieces critical of the stadium i don't know if you've encountered that but i i've seen i see a flash through my timeline i saw something about it this morning but i didn't pay much attention to it i i was did len fest work for comcast or something like is there let me see i am i'm not a hundred percent certain i mean there's a lot to criticize

about the stadium proposal and i guess comcast has offered some kind of lame counter proposal um but you know i i don't know i i have no idea i i assume it's it's all made up bullshit as usual usual yeah it looks like it looks like the lundfest company was sold to comcast in the 90s. In the 90s. But not the Lenfest Institute, not the organization that... It's the nonprofit that owns the Enquirer. So I don't think those are related. And he's dead anyway. I guess it's true.

I don't think... I could be wrong. If someone knows something that I don't know, please tell me. But I... I just can't imagine... I could be wrong if someone knows something that I don't know please tell me but I like I just can't imagine like there's a certain and there's even like when you had you on last year for this we talked about this

and there are people we like follow and stuff that otherwise have good takes but are just dead set on like the arena is a good idea right even where it is the arena seems like i mean i would say at best a neutral idea i mean we're looking at like a series of competing extremely bad ideas at this point uh someone's going to pick one of them and it's going to be

stupid um you know i i am in favor of leaving the sports complex as it is i i think that's just you know it it works i we we don't need to change that um but yeah i i don't i don't fully understand i mean i don't know all the ideas are bad is the problem there's no like good idea here yeah i but the other one is moving them to wilmington camden that's not gonna happen camden would be more feasible but camden would be more feasible yeah i mean but just think of the people who are already afraid to go into the city for a Sixers game, they're definitely not going to Camden for a Sixers game. Oh, yeah.

Well, it's an isolated area. That's the area of Camden that's walled off from everything else. Yeah. Well, the Walter Rand's been kind of sketchy. It's not as, I don't know. I remember being there all the time, like 10 years ago. And I feel like a little, it's just, eh. Maybe it's a little more run down.

I don't know. Walter Rans always felt pretty run down to me. I've only been there a couple times, though. Yeah, I used to take the river line. Of a female, of a woman that I was dating. But that's a long time ago. Yeah. Maybe that's why I have good memories of the Walter

Rays. I knew what was going to happen when I reached the end of the river. Right, right, right. Everything's like, hey, you know, oh, how's it going there, ma'am? You know, I'm, yeah, I have a quarter of the spare, absolutely.

It's like a songbird floating behind me. What a wonderful day this is. This is... And it's going to be an even better night. A bunch of, like, delightful woodland creatures

following you. All asking for quarters, yes. Yeah, they're all asking for quarters. Yeah. Um... All asking for quarters, yes. Yeah, they're asking for quarters. Yeah. What the fuck's wrong with us? We're very Disney today. Yes, this is apparently a Disney day. So in more serious shit,

so the Washington commander suspended their VP. Yep. His name is Rael Enteen. I don't know if it's Rael or Ryle. Vice President of Content because fucking James O'Keefe. This fucking asshole. Had an undercover plant to

try and uncover woke. In the fucking Washington commanders organization. Make that make sense. Dude, that dude, Jeffrey Laurie voted for Hillary. You want,

you think you'd want to try that first, right? Right there in the name. They're woke commies. Yeah. Catching Harry Roseman talking about how he's excited for Kamala. Yeah, they're,

they're, they're old names centered native american voices that's pretty woke to me i oh okay yeah yeah that's true um and but the phillies did come out in favor of of uh the cultural revolution so and xi jinping oh i saw that yeah and there was no community though it was so you know it's true I didn't see that. Oh, wait, no, I did see that. Nevermind. Um, the,

uh, that's Philly's muse. Shouts out Philly's muse, who just never seems to have a bad take. Bad post. Yeah. They're very funny. Um,

yeah. So they spent, suspended him for, for, for complaining that 50% of our roster is white religious. And God says, fuck the gays. Their interpretation. They're not wrong.

He's not wrong. And then he says, slightly, yeah, I would say this is a more controversial take. Another big chunk is low-income African-Americans that come from a community that's inherently very homophobic. I'm not saying that. I'm reading the quote. Right. And then he calls the players dumb as hell. Get their heads knocked a few times for susceptible conspiracy theories hey look they're i'm not saying that makes them susceptible but yeah there are some dumb conspiracy theories

that go around yeah uh save it with the nba you know that that's that's an issue for another day he also said and this is fucking true this is truth, I don't think the commissioner of the NFL hates gay people, hates black people Jerry Jones, who really runs the NFL, I think he hates gay people, black people fucking

amen for calling that out that's right, That is objectively true. He's called the shadow commissioner for a reason. Yeah. They're saying the social justice initiatives are performative, which is true with any corporation. It's true.

Then he called fans are high school educated alcoholics and mouth breathers. My man. Not wrong. I haven't heard a single thing here that's wrong per se. Yeah. And saying that it's faux prioritization of DEI.

So he's calling out fake, like sort of rainbow capitalism type of shit. And James O'Keefe is like, run it anyway. This is too woke. Right. I don't, I guess

don't talk to anybody who hasn't been vetted. Yeah. Yeah. But it's wild that, you know, I mean, I guess don't talk to anybody who hasn't been vetted. Yeah. It's wild. I guess you would be expected to be fired for saying shit like this.

Right. I assume he thought they were off the record. Oops. They met at a... Oh, he met the reporter on a dating app at Hinge. I heard twice at a local restaurant. He got catfished. He got catfished.

Yeah, that's not ethical. I guess the lesson here, guys, is never trust women. Hmm. As I say this, my wife walks in behind me and just hits me in the back of the head. Beats you to death. Yeah. I would deserve it too um yeah

um dating app related incident what are you gonna do you know yeah yeah it's it's not the good one the good one where we're liam met rin so it sucks that's bumble i don't know anything besides the one I was on. Excuse me. Yeah. So speaking about alcoholics, we have like the biggest news is actually the reason we have you on today. You're known to know a thing or two about being drunk. I mean, about. Yes, actually. Yeah, I'm probably above point.

Oh, wait right Yes, actually. Yeah. I'm probably above.08 right now, actually. Well, the beer fridge, as we were talking about before we started, the beer fridge is still running. Yeah. The beer fridge is the only fridge in my house that works right now. It's a trooper. It's a trooper. Yeah. Well, it's an old Kenmore.

It's from the golden age of over-engineered American appliances. We used to be a country. Yes. I wonder if the Egyptian army made appliances hold up. Because their military makes consumer goods. What? Yes. If you didn't know that, the Egyptian military makes consumer goods for sale.

Why? I don't know. Gotta get that budget, man. They're also building a new capital in the desert. Well, that's much like the old rumors that parts of the DOD would just buy shipping containers and fill them full of household appliances and bury them in the desert so that they could be seen to be spending all their budget. That's genius or whatever. So maybe they buy them from the Egyptian military. It's just this

big scam between every military. Yeah. We're just all buying each other stuff. They're all handing off appliances to each other. There's like a C5 Galaxy lands and they open it up. It's full of washing machines. Oh, man.

Let's mix that shipment up and send that to the Israelis. They just open it up and it's all... Yeah, it's all... Bunch of refrigerators fall out on them. Oh, that would be very funny. That's amazing. No, they would trap a Palestinian child in each one. Oh, God. god oh come on man i was gonna say i was gonna say liam can you do an israeli accent because i can't yes i can but

i'm not going to oh look at all these refrigerators we got yeah you could do that i give you permission i could do that one because it's just a new york accent really at the end of the day um yeah no the israeli if you do a a fucking french accent you're like halfway there so sure uh hebrews are kind of like anyway um it is but you know what do you want us to fucking do about it there there's actually uh i forget what his name is but there's a uh a jewish linguist linguist um a jewist linguist um almost who is like nah we should we should keep fucking with with yiddish like that was the shit let's stick with that it's basically german with with it's german but with more fun words yeah i i fucking say some of the most fun words

in english come from it you know kvetch schmutz schmutz schmitzing a schmear a schlamiel yeah yeah a mensch mensch that's a good one they're all great and they all look at these palletized consonants and it's so it's so much fun to say oh yeah they're like they're like really good words you know it's uh it's up there at um uh lenape providing us with such great words you know yeah it's literally the least we could do um yeah so uh wow um we're supposed to be talking about hockey um so yes so everyone has i think everyone has listened to this podcast has seen it a couple people like sent it to us um uh johnny gaudreau who's a nhl he was a free agent he just got signed by the columbus blue jackets was um in new jersey riding a bicycle with his brother right the day before his sister's wedding both of them were killed by a drunk driver

yes right um and if you are having a hard time trying to find where this is um the i could put the cbs article which has the intersection in there it's it's off of uh it's on county route 511 in olden township it's auburn road in stumpy lane that's a unfortunate name of a road uh but uh yeah so he was he was uh killed and his brother and his brother and his brother yeah um the right near clara barton service area indignity of it all i know this is in this weird area of South Jersey that is incredibly rural. It's not too far from, I think, the Auburn Road Winery, which I think I've been to once or twice. It's like you get 20 miles out of Philly and just across the river from Wilmington, and it's like Alabama. Yeah.

We were talking before we recorded, like, a quite bizarre, beautiful in some aspects, for sure. It's, you know, kind of bucolic farmland, very flat. Yes. But I'll put a link to the intersection in the show notes if you want to see it. It's just a three-way intersection, but a two-lane road. There's no real shoulder. It's just a regular road. I guess they were engaging in vehicular cycling. Yes. Actually, they weren't. It says they were on

the right hand side. Well, you're doing, I guess, what you can on that kind of small two lane road, which is going to be, you know, you're riding towards the side because, OK, it is reasonable to allow vehicles to pass you in this circumstance. I don't know if I'd go ahead and take the whole lane here because you would think there'd be, OK, fairly clear sight lines. Like it's not going to be a huge problem if you decide to bike on a road like this. Yeah, I cycling up here. I very rarely will actually cycle on the road. Just it's too.

This is Bucks County I'm talking about because of the trucks and idiots. Yes. I don't feel safe, even though I have like a good helmet and shit like that. That's not going to do shit. Gets a guy going 50 miles per hour. It is F 250. Right. As we've seen multiple times in the past few months, yeah.

Yeah. And this, their deaths happened after a drunk driver, it was at night, it was at 8, 19 p.m., but it's still kind of light out. This man's name, Sean Higgins, charged with drunk driving and murder. He, or vehicular homicide to second degree. He was trying to pass two other vehicles and as he pulled in, hit them.

So as he was weaving around two other vehicles and there is a there is a passing lane or not passing lane. It is marked that you can pass. If you're northbound, you can pass if there's no traffic. Looks like. Right? Yeah. Yeah. This has a solid line and a broken line. So, yeah. Yeah.

Or eastbound. Eastbound, you can pass. He was under the influence of alcohol. I think he was quoted as saying he had five or six beers. Which means 12. Yeah. Yeah, that sounds about right. That sounds like 12, yeah.

Yeah. When you go to the doctor, you tell the doctor you drink six beers a night. Even if you actually do, they're going to write 12. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. So, young guy, 31, and his brother was 29 young kids about this about to celebrate something awesome go just going out for a bike ride you know and uh the lives the lives end it

uh here and you know the question the question here is like is is why is this happening why we're increasingly seeing a spate of this right in the city and outside this is outside the city but it i don't know if it's heightened awareness but like this increase in cyclists being killed by drunk drivers in very like high visibility situations basically yes i mean there's this it's it's high visibility in the sense that um you know the these have had a lot of media coverage and also i think in both cases it was pretty high visibility in the sense that well someone should have seen them and not run them over but obviously this was you know alcohol was involved here right but uh yeah it's it the this is this has happened now and it does not seem like there's there's still no like uh motivation on the part of

the powers that be to try and prevent these sorts of situations from happening in the future i mean what is it going to take i mean we've got a hockey player now this is he's gonna be jailing hurts like right exactly well exactly right like that's the question yeah who do they have to get do they have to like run over kill biden biden i was gonna say yeah um you would that you would not be able to prove that that wasn't deliberate so many biden but uh no, the, the, you know, they were,

they were on the right side of the road. They, they didn't do anything wrong. They were following and they, and they were, they were killed at, it wasn't like they were mangled first. Right.

And suffered on the ride. They were pronounced dead at the scene. Yeah. They were just instantly just murdered. Yeah. By a Jeep grand Cherokee. Um, the guy is basically unrepentant too

yeah the the yeah at the end of his arraignment um he said so i'm here till thursday to the judge like wow it doesn't give a shit okay that doesn't give a fuck that's not that's some car brain right there yeah it is car brain yeah no it's it's it's a and no one needs a jeep grand cherokee i've i've noticed as i in that in the that ever since 2000 like the the floyd protests all the new model cars look like they can kill pedestrians like they're designed to look intimidating to pedestrians and oh yeah like that i think that's a deliberate move on truck manufacturers to go with this aesthetic. It's partially that, and it's partially because of how new fuel economy standards were set up in the Barack Obama era, which is essentially, you know, you have a certain percentage of your vehicle vehicles that you produce as an auto manufacturer that have to have certain fuel economy standards. But certain light trucks, I want to say, are exempt from that.

And that has resulted in, you know, the proliferation of SUVs, you know, is as as like, OK, well, this is technically a light truck. So we can make it incredibly fuel inefficient, put a bigger motor in. Oh, and these bigger vehicles also have higher profit margins because, you know, you can just, you know, sell people a toddler runovers whatever you want to call them um that have you know really poor sight lines days when if you get hit by them because the grill is so high you just get hit square in the back and are flung away from the accident as opposed to you know a sedan which is going to take you out at like the knees and you're going to fall backward on a car, which is a lot, a lot more survivable. Yeah, that actually happened to me in a parking lot.

Jesus. When I was eight or nine. In hindsight, I think the kids were high as shit. They were they were like 17 or 18 and they hit me, but they were going like 10 miles per hour. And I just I just went over. It was like they were they were like 17 or 18 and they they hit me but they were going like 10 miles per hour and i just i just went over it was like they were going it was like a t-bone kind of situation and they came out of the parking lot they hit me and i didn't get hurt um i think i hurt like a nail maybe nothing nothing big and i went right up under their fucking hood. And I remember their faces.

They were like, holy shit. What's happening? How did this happen? Yeah. And that was like frozen in my mind. And I don't know if I've added at it like their eyes are red to that memory. But when I got up and walked away, I was like, oh, it's fine. They were like, oh, shit.

Fuck. Yes. and just drove off. But, yeah. Yeah, I mean, if you had gotten hit by a big SUV, they might not have even noticed and just kept running you over. Yeah. Isn't there like the fucking urban legend of the girl getting stuck in the grill by the truck driver and does not find out until the next day and the girl hit stuck in the grill by the truck driver he does not found out to the next day and the girl's still in the grill god damn yeah it's urban legend

it's not real um sounds increasingly more plausible yeah it sounds yeah that's the thing i don't think that would have happened with a 96 ford ranger no no but there's loads of cars now where you know people people back up over their toddler in the driveway constantly. Jesus Christ. That's a type of accident that just did not exist until like a decade ago. I mean, I've always been sort of pro-smaller car, pro-transit. GTI, baby. But what did I drive?

It was a Supra, uh, or Cupra something in, in, in Ireland. And it was like a tiny hybrid. I had to like climb. Like I was comfortable once I was seated, but I had to like,

like to get inside. I was like, God damn, this fucks, this fucks. Like it's a tiny car. I could drive on tiny roads. Um,

shockingly, Irish drivers are so much better that they enforce the law there, like we mentioned. And I never felt uncomfortable walking on a country road because I knew the drivers wouldn't get mad that I was there. We have no patience for anything other than a fucking truck on the road. And the bigger your car, the truck is that you drive, the more you expect that only other fucking big ass trucks fucking truck on the road. And the bigger your car, the truck is that you drive, the more you expect that only other fucking big-ass trucks should be on the road. Yeah, there's been this sort of arms race

among the auto manufacturers, but also among, you know, the general public of, well, everyone else's car is big, so I better get, you know, a bigger car than all of them. You know, and the result has been, overall, worse safety outcomes, because everyone, you know, a bigger car than all of them. You know, and the result has been overall worse safety outcomes because everyone, you know, they want the biggest truck that can crash into the other truck with no damage.

Culminating in, of course, the Cybertruck, which is built, you know, like it's from the 1950s with no crumple zones. You are the crumple zone. Yeah, exactly. You will crumple. Well, you, the other vehicle, are the crumple zone yeah exactly you will crumple well you the other vehicle are the crumple zone yeah the cyber truck just catches fire it still kills you it just doesn't do it by crumpling it does it in a simpson-esque manner yeah exactly yeah the the it's just and these trucks it's all, you know, guys.

It's just one person in this fucking truck. Yes. We're taking up so much fucking space for no reason, just to look like you have a big dick. Big Dick Jones' big dick truck. Yeah, exactly. It's that time, like I said, this time in Ireland driving where I didn't get tailgated once.

I was doing the speed limit, and I was in the fast lane passing people at the speed limit. Jesus. What a culture. Could not get away with that in the United States. No. You'd be killed. You would be murdered for it. And the speed limit here has always been, you know, that's a suggestion at best.

Yeah. Right. And the speed limit here has always been, you know, that that's that's a suggestion at best. Yeah, right. I had a New York. I had a New York State trooper tell me that they don't really stop anyone for anything more than 10 over. Right. Yeah, that that sounds about right. That is definitely I think I think in Virginia, a lot of times it's like 12 over like these standards. Yeah, virginia is is pretty militant about it but like i mean i've been i've done obviously huge amounts of speed in the gti and even have

done like 90 on the new jersey turnpike i don't know that you should do speed in the car no no no that's a dwi right there yeah you're right yeah but but it gives me more attention yeah exactly yeah i actually drive a little bit better when i'm on speed yeah uh they take take two vive answers and drive a boat man i gotta tell you oh boy i was god um but uh uh yeah i was one with the c oh i bet um yeah the jesus christ i found this out this was on this was on the aviation reddit uh you you lose your medical right because you because it's for some reason it turns out you could just fly a plane without a medical license and the fine's not that bad if it's a small plane don Don't like that. And if you like,

it's like a $500 fine and they, they can't take your plane away. Like they just took your license and the airport's not checking when you're leaving, especially if it's an uncontrolled airfield. So you just fucking keep flying. I hope they don't catch it. Right.

Yeah. What are they going to do? Pull me over in the sky. What are they going to do? Ask, ask to copy the copy copy this phone number down well shanghai just turn my radio off i'm not controlled airspace yeah exactly i copy my fucking ass you know turn my transponder off find me now

um but these are those that the the the demographic of those guys and the demographic of eight DUIs and I have an F-250, the Venn diagram is a circle. Right. I want to say the most DUI car out there relatively is a Dodge Ram. Yes. One in 20 Dodge Ram owners has a DUI. Jesus. But I think the last time I looked up the stats, it's not that much for like the least.

It's like one in 37. We just fucking love to drink and drive. Not that big of an outlier. So, so, all right. We talked about like the size of cars. What, what, what could, what could we have done?

How could it has been preventable? Well, I mean, you're looking at a lot of times, you know, when I talk about, uh, road safety in terms of bicycles, a lot of times it's in an urban context. You do a lot with infrastructure there, right? Um, yeah. Separate bike lanes, ideally protected with concrete of some kind and not just like weird flex posts out here in rural areas. It's a little bit different. I mean, OK, to some extent, maybe you don't want to spend a lot of money on extra cycling infrastructure. But on the other hand, you know, a separate bike path on the side is pretty cheap and like you have a lot of land to work with.

You know, bike paths are very, very cheap by infrastructure standards and very, very low maintenance. I don't know how that helps you in the middle of a small town. You might need some other treatment. And, you know, there is an enforcement aspect here. I mean, you know, drunk driving is already still basically tolerated in most places because. Right, exactly. The built infrastructure requires you to drunk drive if you enjoy alcohol in or at least enjoy going to like bars or restaurants or weddings or funerals even if you like going to social events with alcohol in most of the country you have to drunk drive and and for the average person one one two to three beers put you over for the for the average yeah something like that depends on the the you know male female uh and body size and how much of a drunk you are um

when i was drinking more i could get away with more i was i've always been pretty cautious about it um now because i don't drink that much anymore i stop at one detail it's just not it's it's it's not i it's not worth it to me um it it doesn't doesn't feel right going any higher right for me anymore and just in saying that there are europe if there are european listeners like what the fuck is wrong with you? And I had a couple, going back to Ireland again for like the eighth time, I had conversations in pubs talking about it. And they're like, yeah, you just, I mean, there's a couple old guys that still do it. And if they see the DUI checkpoint, they turn around. But the idea, yeah, is you walk to the pub.

Yeah, you're supposed to walk there, maybe take the bus there, maybe, you know, in a more urban area, you take the subway there. Right. But in rural areas, there's just they are, or really suburban areas, I guess, is is the the the real issue here is the whole environment is built to compensate for, you know, inattentive motorists, including drunk drivers. Right. I mean, it's it's part of the philosophy of like highway engineering is giving people very, very wide margins for error, which has turned out over a long period of time to lead to worse outcomes. Because the whole highway system is designed for you

to be able to drive like an asshole. Right. Yeah, that makes sense. And more people used to relax like like like the greater wiggle room you you start driving everywhere like that you know you start applying that to like everything like oh i can get away with this and then you actually run this i can i can i can get away with whatever i mean if you look at like especially in europe um you know, I am most familiar with the Italian highways. Every lane is like, I don't know, slightly narrower than your car.

Right. I've seen Top Gear, yeah. Yeah. And it's kind of like, okay, everyone's going to drive pretty carefully. Now, that's pretty carefully in an Italian context. But, you know, just because the margin for error, the margin for error is narrower, you wind up with sort of inherently safer outcomes. Right. I mean, it's it's it's like, OK, what if I mean, maybe the American example here is like the merit parkway although the merit parkway is situated in the context of lots of very lots of roads with very wide and generous uh tolerances and the merit is if you

deviate from the lane you hit a tree instantly yeah yeah yeah i i i have a question i have a question. I have a question that, but Roz, if I allow my rural community to have bike lanes, which can also double as walking paths, won't that allow poor people to walk past my house and steal things? Yes. And you, and you deserve it.

Yeah, obviously. Yes. Poor people are going to walk 10 miles to your rural community and steal your flat screen television that costs 250 and then walk 10 miles back with it um this is unfortunate but it's a reality we all live in i mean you had like three or four stolen from you today just from living in the city i was about to say yeah i have to go i have to go to i have to go to fucking Best Buy so often. Jesus Christ.

I just started buying them in bulk. Actually, you started buying in the shipping containers from the Egyptian military. Oh, that's a good idea. Yeah. The spyware is a pain in the ass, but you get every fucking football game. So it's kind of like you get every... every you've got you get i mean it's all in arabic but you can kind of get what they're saying yeah you get the egyptian football feed i've watched that oh well when when uh when the egyptian man was in my basement uh he uh he left

his he left his box the the illegal i've talked about this before the illegal thing he paid a guy 50 bucks in cairo for oh yes yes yes whatever android tv box full of shit yeah that i hope it wouldn't be a tv box it'd be a tv pyramid hold on oh yeah all right uh but it not only like he's like i got it for every football game no it had every channel it i there must be some guy in a command center somewhere in fucking alexandria or something like that with like like an unfinished like massive tv antenna because my man i could get russian tv on that shit i could get fucking indian tv he it had i just literally like like the there's someone from the fucking matrix in there with all the tvs

and he's like dude you paid 50 for this who the fuck did you buy who has this how you have every channel from everywhere it's like thank god it's like plugged into the wi-fi not like because i imagine that like this is something you'd put on the back end that would steal all of your super virus box yeah yeah just we just hijack we unencrypt all of your data um this is actually what you get if uh you you take the blue pill in the matrix the morpheus gives you the the magic tv box that gets all the channels you You get TV Al Misri, you know, fucking just plays the Egyptian national anthem every time you turn it on. Which I don't even know what that sounds like. Every Al Jazeera station.

Oh, I get the good shit that it's only in Arabic. Yeah. Oh, I get to hear what they say I just heard the word yahood What are they talking about? Oh no Oh no Oh no

Turn it off Turn it off I'm going to get drone striked They're going to come at you Messiah's going to come at you With the refrigerator That's how they're going to get you They're going to drop a refrigerator

Out of the plane Onto your house. They're going to drop a couple of pianos, too. Anvil as well, for good measure. Anvil and a safe. It says Acme in it, but in Hebrew.

Acme. Acme. We bring the Acme. See, I'm doing it, Liam. why can't you join it uh you know why oh you don't want to sacrifice your net your next uh hour at the laser i get it no no no i need that oh jesus christ um reconfigured the laser to drop fridges from orbit. Or to drop shock fridges. Fridges from God. Yeah. That's how they get the Spartans.

The US, the United Nations Space Command gets the Spartans, the cryopods, which is really good fucking chemo refrigerators from the 80s. Yeah. With the latch on the outside. Yeah. With the latch on the outside. Yeah. It just drops on you and you're stuck inside. You can't get out. I thought these were illegal, man.

Oh, shit. All right. One of the things I had marked down here was was something you wanted to mention was the protestant work ethic and drunk driving aka wittgenstein's revenge yeah i mean we in the united states i a lot of traffic safety including you know drunk driving is treated as like a personal failing it's treated as like a personal responsibility issue i mean you know your friend gets too drunk at the bar you're supposed to take the keys away there's no like systems in place that are uh you know designed to mitigate that problem

happening in the first place i mean the advocacy groups are limited to like these weird almost neo-prohibitionists like mothers against drunk driving who are neo-prohibitionists right yeah um you know that this is all this is all treated as personal failings um you know there's nowhere in the country that you're you're putting in sort of road infrastructure that prevents uh reckless or drunk driving which exists pretty extensively in places other than north america um you know this is this is it's it's it's all personal responsibility everything everything is left to the individual and just because the road system is again designed expressly to let you drive as quickly and recklessly as possible at all times in all locations.

And it, it, it doesn't work that well. You know, and the cars are getting bigger and they're getting, you know, they're safer for the, the,

the occupants. They're much less safe for everyone outside of them. I mean, it seems like we're eventually converging on a situation where, you know, the road system will be so extensive and the car is so heavily overbuilt. What you're going to do is you're going to you're going to down like a fifth of whiskey and then you're going to point the car in the direction of your house and just drive straight there, you know, over open terrain and be fine while causing death and destruction you know if you ever seen the uh the uh that old n64 game blast core oh yes nuclear missile truck it's going to be

the exact same idea except it's going to be everyone so it really you know we're really regressing to uh hobbesian state state of nature the war of all against all, except it's in giant steel, probably Cybertrucks, I would imagine. Sort of like a Mad Max situation, but less fun. Yeah, not as cool. Not as many explosions. There's going to be no doof wagon. There's going to be no doof wagon there's going to be no war rig it's just going to be uh f-150 that's about twice as large and twice as boring and you're just going to drive

it through your neighbor's living room and that's going to be normal no no no knobs of any kind everything is controlled through a screen. Including the steering wheel. Exactly. But you won't need that because it points directly to your house. I dropped a link here. This is my favorite idea of bicycle infrastructure. Just where this fucking bicycle lane is.

And this is just emblematic. I've seen things like this before. Now, they have a separate path here, it appears. Yeah, you're not supposed to ride your bicycle on there. Really? Is it a walking path? Everyone does anyway. No one rides their bicycle on the shoulder. You would die.

I've just got to say, that is not a walking path. That's a bike. There's not even any shade. How could you walk on that? You don't? Yeah, I was about to say, I can't imagine anyone walks on that. That's only for biking. Believe it or not, you do see more people than you'd be surprised.

For those who don't know, I'm showing the Route 202 in Bucks County slash Montgomery County. Yeah, I mean, if you're building like a rural highway like this, that's the kind of separate bike path you would need, except apparently it's not a bike path. You know, this is the kind of nice infrastructure you'd want. Instead of, you know, saying, okay, bike on the shoulder here, on this tiny shoulder. Well, and people are talking about, oh, we need to like widen the lanes or add more lanes here because this road demands your attention. Right.

Yes. You can't fuck around on this road if you look at it, Route 202, not the old business 202, but Route 202, I forget what they call it. It's like some dead cop parkway. There are parts where you would just literally fly into a crevasse.

You'll just fly off the fucking road into a ditch 30 feet below the roadside, as you deserve for being an asshole like that but right yes um yeah the the of course the solution is well we should make it wider and straighter not right no keep it as it is that's the inherent that's the knee-jerk reaction from any traffic engineer is okay make the road wider make it straighter it'll be safer for you to do dumb shit on right yeah yeah you know which is why i certainly talk to

urbanists or uh folks like that i mean the the solution here paradoxically is to make the road more dangerous to make it safer make people drive slower because they're afraid to do stupid shit. Create a road that is sort of like the Jefferies tube from the movie Galaxy Quest, where there's like saws going back and forth. Right. Random flames. Okay, now you can be funny again because Zencaster fucking sucks. I hate this fucking thing. I can't believe we all got the Massad fridge Dropped on us at the same time Can you believe it?

Yeah After I, you know, went on birthright, sorry Well get a free trip I mean, why not Get a free fridge Get a free fridge, man You come back, you have to fucking check that Yeah, you're gonna have to check that

Yep Full of pastrami Yeah You have to fucking check that Yeah you're gonna have to check that Yep Full of pastrami The Egyptian fridge See that's where you gotta get the Egyptian fridge Because it's full of Bastirma And that shit is I did the Italian kiss thing The swizzito

Long country I don't even remember what we were riffing on now uh cars i think i was doing an extended bit about how uh in the future we're all going to drive cars directly to our destinations without regard to roads and yes everyone in a way yes and then we were on something else at that about 202 or is it 222 202 we talked about that yes um we were kind of wrapping it up i think so but um uh to kind of to kind of put a point on this um you know these you know johnny gredrude's brother they they weren't like they weren't ignorant of the area they grew up in south jersey yeah you know the this is like freak accident is the wrong word i mean this is entirely this is a murder venable

this was entirely this was baked in this is just a recognition it's the natural result of building a transportation infrastructure which can and will kill vulnerable road users at any time for no reason right um you know and about all we're gonna wind up doing is probably throwing the book at the driver and not changing any of the underlying conditions that allow someone to get drunk and pass two other cars and then wreck into two cyclists you know uh this is because because loads of people have loads of road rage and we'll just you know do this at the slightest provocation oh yeah yeah um and and there's there there's nothing no amount of like personal responsibility there's no amount of changing the culture that's going to fix that at least not in the short term

i don't know maybe over the long term we can somehow remold uh people into the new soviet man who is conscientious on the road i think in the meantime we have to like you know sort of think about okay what can we do with stuff like separate bike paths or concrete or you know stuff that stuff that only requires money to do it does not require you know political a multi-generation re-education program. Right. I do like the idea, though, of multi-generational re-education. Bike Stalin, baby. Oh, yeah.

We need bike Stalin. How many Stalins? We got climate Stalin, transit Stalin. Bike Stalin. Probably need a sports Stalin. Sports Stalin. Bike Stalin. Probably need a sports Stalin. Sports Stalin would be great. We need a movie Stalin.

I like that. Movie Stalin so the movies are better. We need... Most things could stand to be better. I think we could have a Stalin for everything. Maybe like a politics Stalin? Politics Stalin? I don't think that's been

tried before. Nah, I don't think so. No, I've never heard of politics Stalin. I think we need a Stalin in every home. You know what's funny is that actually happened in the Soviet Union. They had a Stalin in a little picture. A nice picture of Stalin. Yeah. Right above the Stalin, you know, a little picture. Nice picture of Stalin.

Yeah. Right above the fireplace. Well, not a fireplace. You're in a you're in an apartment. Although some of them had fireplaces. Some sort of earlier ones. Efficiently made very weirdly weird to start stove

that has like three, for some reason, three gas control knobs and they only work in a certain configuration and it's of course it's all in it's all in cyrillic yes because i mean they read it we don't and but once you get it started it like it it it would it's built to last a nuclear explosion right yeah i mean that's and it burns natural gas it burns like like uh it'll burn fucking anything it'll neutral spirit whatever it burns vodka propane propane i like you went to vodka before propane yeah um yeah wood gas yeah um yeah it'll burn... Actually, it'll run off polonium as well. The farts of Yevgeny.

It runs off all hot air in Politburo. Just shove copies of it in there. I feel like we need... It runs off of Sam Zidat's counter-revolutionary propaganda. We need to get... What's his name from Beyond the Breakers? Because he does the best Russian accent I've ever heard.

Milo does a good one, too. Yeah, Milo's is good, too. Yeah, let's just... Let's get Milo in line. All right. What's up, cuz? It's like, I don't know, midnight, whatever. I don't fucking know metric time.

Uh, come on over here, dude. Right. Do the fucking, uh, yeah, come on here. Tell, tell us the story of the Stalinkas. Um, oh, imagine they have like Franklin stones, but they give it a cute name. Like Frank, Franklin eats, uh, give it a cute name. Like Franklin Eatsa. Franklin Zia. Yeah.

All right. Any final thoughts on this before we move to listener messages? Ban cars. I don't know. Yeah. I think cars might ban themselves. I think that's an underrated possibility. Just because they're making them so big. They're making them so expensive.

No one's going to be able to afford cars anymore except for like three people. And they're all going to cruise around every road while the rest of us are on shitty bicycles. And they're just going to mow us all down. But that may still be a lower death rate than we're currently experiencing. So, you know, it comes out in the wash jesus it's grim look look the gti the 96 ford ranger yeah i think what like what's another perfect car uh you need a chevy s10 in there for balance yeah yeah honda fit which they should have made an SI version of and never did. Yeah, the Chevy S10, actually, because that's a very versatile platform.

Maybe we could get Utes. Ooh, I'd love a Ute. Yeah. Utes would be good. And what's the one they... I always forget the name of it. The one they make the technicals out of. The Toyota...

The Hilux. Hilux. Hilux, yeah. One of those. Which forget the name of it. The one they make the technicals out of. The Toyota... The Hilux. Hilux, yeah. One of those. Which is the Tacoma here. Yeah. Except you can't... You cannot buy a regular cab anymore. It doesn't exist.

That's so stupid. I looked it up. Right now, there's no American car manufacturer doing anything other than crew cab. This is what all of these discussions ultimately lead into, which is America needs and deserves a small pickup truck. Yeah. Yeah. And the closest we have is a Ford Maverick now, which is still stupid huge. Yeah. Or you can import like a key truck from Japan.

I like those. Yeah. Those are key. Maybe that's what we need. Oh, Ford Maverick. Look how many doors it has. It has four. Four.

How long is the bed? Three feet. I don't know. It looks tight. It looks like three feet. It's tight. It just keeps getting shorter. Yeah.

I got a one-foot bed. Yeah. I can fit a Lego set in here. That's basically the Hummer truck. Yeah. I think I fit. I can fit a Lego set, but not a big one. Yeah. Not the Concord one. You can't here that's basically the hummer truck yeah i think i fit i think the lego set but not a big one yeah not the not the concord one you can't not the enterprise or the uh the star

destroyer excuse me no no i feel like i feel like my fucking corolla's uh trunk is got more fit more in there yeah than the than the for Ford Maverick right now. All right. So, banned cars. RIP Johnny Goudreau and Matthew Goudreau. Absolutely. Literally no reason. Let's get to some listener feedback.

We have our first text message from C. Hi, C. Hi, C. listener feedback we have our first text message from c i see c i see hi c is that normal hi c or is it like isn't there wasn't there like a pink lemonade hi c i think so yeah um i believe so all right so yo C, they, them from Illinois. As a current Illinois grad student who tries to go to every home game, don't root for them if you need someone to win sometimes in conference. This is in reference to what team I should root for that's not Temple.

Illinois, Minnesota, dude. Yeah, I know. I think it's going to be Minnesota. Gators are also pretty dismal at the moment. Fuck Dan Mullen. I hate seeing his stupid face on ESPN after what he did to us. I hope Napier can turn it around for both teams for the team's sake. And because he'll get fired after this year if he doesn't.

So my undergrad alma mater is also not a good option. I'm a lifelong Michigan fan, so I've got to suggest rooting for them, even though I know you won't. Fuck Ohio State. Fuck Penn State. Go blue, baby. No, but. Thank you, C, for the suggestion.

Yeah, I will not root for Illinois. My granddad went to Illinois. Although I do like their jerseys. Fighting Illini, baby. They do have a cool... Of course, they also let a player with an active rape investigation play

basketball. Yep. Sports. Don't watch sports anymore. Just don't. There's no point. All right. We have three voicemails from some regular listeners. So let's go.

We got Wayne first. Hey, Tom. Hey, Liam. It's Wayne. Pronouns he, him. All about the general stuff that's gone on in the world of sports

as you can see the New York Mets are basically treading basically trying to tread water at this point

good winning like yeah that's regained we're not sympathetic Wayne is a Mets fan in another series basically every

other series barely just outside the wild card spot basically in a in another series. Basically every other series. Barely just outside the wild card spot. Basically in a fight to the death with the Atlanta Braves. The college football season gets kicked off tomorrow as Florida State and Georgia Tech

take on each other in Dublin with both sets of fans about to confuse a bunch of lost UK tourists in the Temple Bar area of Dublin. Progress on College Football 25. I have a dynasty right now with Marshall, and I just won a national championship with them,

albeit it's on varsity level, so I'm basically telling myself I'm still level. But anyway, here's to the upcoming college football season. Here's to the Rutgers-Charlotte Knights hopefully getting back into a bowl game at the minimum. And as always,

fuck Penn State. Oh, yeah. And Georgia Tech went to win that game. I'm happy. Look. Fuck Florida State. I did a little, just a short tweet about this, man. I'm happy. I look, but Florida state, I, I, I did a little, just a short tweet about this,

man. I definitely am going to root for Notre Dame over like Southern teams for sure. Um, there's, it's the Philadelphia urge, man. I'm going to root for Boston college to,

to, to be, uh, my dad went there for a semester, man. Yeah. Uh, they also like have one of the highest,

um, like graduation rates or something like that there was something academically they actually take it seriously for the players there and they have like good i don't know i don't know if that was like if it's true or not but i remember reading something about that um but they beat florida state that's what matters any team that does a job fuck you we're We're rooting for your demise. We know you licensed it from the Seminole Tribe. We don't care. The logo of the chop's made up.

There's no... Yeah, sorry. They actually stole the chop from the Braves. Yeah. Yeah, if you look up the origin. And the Braves made it up. Because that's the noise the Cherokee made. And the stadium was built on stolen ground. At least we can say that the stadium was built on stolen ground.

At least we can say that the link was built on ground. Barrett Square, baby. William Penn did negotiate. William Penn did actually buy that, at least. I am still working my way through the Philadelphia 300 years. That William Penn, they note at the time, for the time, uh, for his time, unusual considered native Americans, human beings, um, which is, uh, Jesus Christ. Gotta start somewhere.

Yeah. Just don't ask what his sons did or what my great grand uncle did. Um, uh, all right. Uh, we got our union update from Charlie. Let's listen to Charlie. Hey, guys. Hey, Tom. Hey, Liam. This is Charlie from Osprey. He, him.

The Philadelphia Union did go up to North Jersey to bother Wayne and did come out with the win 2-, goals by Uro in the fourth minute, and then Caibo-Bribo in the 14th minute, and they did see the game out. Despite Red Bull hitting the post three times, but the Union did get the win, and probably move up, because I think everybody lost in the chasing. So they'll go into Miami next Saturday with four players missing to the international break and

see if they keep doing a lot better on the road than at home but it's going to be another rough one. Hopefully they can do better than Temple did at Norman, which wasn was even close. And also all the other owls lost this weekend too.

Oh, shit. All the owls going to start the season 0-1. Even Rice with E.J. Warner not beating Stephen F. Austin. Well, you know, it is what happened. Later, fellas. All right. Thanks, Charlie. And, yeah, I guess if EJ Warner lost, I'm still happy.

Yeah. Fucking traitor. Yep. You get nothing. Kurt Warner's kid. Yeah. Man, they really were trying to push the Warner family as a thing.

Yeah, I know. Wasn't it... Didn't it come out that that movie that was supposed to be about them was just basically... The guy who directed it was a Christian fascist type... Yeah. Yeah. That they were promoting at the Super Bowl?

Yep. Oh. Why do I like sports again? I hear you. All right, last voicemail is from Bobby. Let's hear him. Hey, Tom. Yay, Liam. This is Bobby from Western Maryland.

Pronouns he, him. A couple things for you here. I want to give a shout out and congratulations to Hagerstown, Maryland native Aaron Brooks for winning the bronze medal at the Paris Olympics in freestyle wrestling. I guess one of the bronze medals. He's also a four-time NCAA champion. We will not mention what school he went to.

Penn State. Amazing. One of the best collegiate wrestlers of all time. It's a really good wrestling school. He actually wrestled in high school. Pennsylvania is good for high school and was in the same county as this guy only overlapped for a year luckily i never had to wrestle him he's maybe he's probably the only guy i ever felt bad for my teammates when they had to wrestle him uh scary dude but congrats to him on that, making Western Maryland proud. And also, it is Wednesday.

My Packers play your Eagles on Friday in Sao Paulo, Brazil, to start our respective NFL seasons. And, you know, just good luck to you guys. Good luck. It's going to be a good game, I think. The Packers. It might not, actually. The Packers actually suck shit in season openers. But hopefully, hopefully it's a good luck. It's going to be a good game, I think. The Packers, it might not actually. The Packers actually suck shit

in season openers, but hopefully it's a good game. Hopefully my Packers get the win. May the best team win. Call my shot. Jordan Love, Jalen Hertz will both be top five in MVP voting at the end of this season. Oh, that's bold. And hey, that is

about it. Go Pack Go. Fuck the Bears. Fuck the Vikings. Fuck Penn State. Have a good one. Thanks, Bobby. I hope it's a fun game. I hope the Eagles win, obviously. Right.

You want something that's competitive, for sure. I just hope all the players have fun. No. You were going to say that say that no we don't no we went to the miserable well like well i mean darius slay seems miserable so i mean they're under there's like a self uh self-imposed hotel restrictions yeah yeah um yeah they're they're basically under siege right now the uh the sal pollens are uh basically a zombie horde yeah they're they're at the doors they're they're clawing at the hotel lobby yeah um you know it's like that building's on lockdown it's
