He is actually going to eject a fan. Because bad things happen in Philadelphia, bad things. Joy it is to come to Philadelphia and stand here at Dodge Ice Ball. Dallas Town Boys. Head of Sets, Mike, John Cooney. Oh, do you think yours is going to fail first? Is it going to? It looks okay.

His always does this. Yeah, he's the only person. It's someone with his computer. I have a VPN, and I think that that actually does affect it. Oh. Oh, yeah, that would probably do it. Because I torrent a lot both on air and off air. By the way, I'm sitting on some fucking spinning gold these days.

Is that WD black held on one second? Two, four terabyte wants to replace my decade old three terabyte blacks. Because your server makes me want to kill myself, Jack. My server? Yeah, your server that I had to grab the shit off. Oh, I figured out why that was fucked up the other day, too. I fixed it. I fixed that.

I don't believe that you did that. It's fast now. This is really great audio on your end, Liam. Yeah, I know. I fixed it. Don't worry. Ooh, there's a... I was literally, it was because I had it throttled.

Like, I'd left some setting on that was like, throttle this to 100 kilobits. So do you have a, you guys have a secret, like, peer-to-peer between you two? No, I just have a NAS for local backups and things, but I'll put some big files and send a link that way, so I'm not having to drop, you know, 200 gigs. onto Google Drive for what I'm sharing big video stuff.

That's cool. I need to get another hard drive. Turns out I had throttled it. Hang on, I'm just going to download Lili Blonde 2, Red White and Blonde real quick. I remember, I remember Liam, you have tried to give me a one terabyte hard drive like three times. Every time you've given it to me, I've left it at your house. Yeah, I have. So this 4 terabyte Iron Wolf is going to go to rods because on the most recent episode of

there's your problem we recorded yesterday. He ran out of the hard drive space mid episode. Again? Another factorial update, I guess. He's like, I had 42 gigs. I'm like, mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I've got two terabytes, but I got to prune all the masters out of there for

episodes that are ready up. They take up so much. They do. The, to go back, so we were talking about video game architecture, and I've been playing. there's no shame in this because I'm among friends

they're shaming it farming simulator there's absolutely no shame in farming simulator and tell me that that's fun dude it is fun I was going to say and it has multiplayer like that doesn't work for the stolen version so so you dick cheese so the Patreon money has sort of become my video game budget so the next the next Patreon payout

I'll buy the full version version. I believe in demos. So I believe if you don't put a like a full legit demo out for your game, like I can play it for hours. I'm just going to take it. If I like it, I will buy it. I will buy all the DLC and shit.

I did it with truck simulator. I got in the truck simulator a million years ago. I bought the original one. I was like, oh, is it like any good? So I downloaded all the DLC and show. I was like, fuck, this shit rocks. Bought everything on sale. So I will buy your shit, but make it freely available.

I mean, I'm an old school internet guy. That's, you know, 2000s piracy culture is, if you like it, I'll buy it. You buy it. So farming simulator 25, I'm playing on the Scottish map, and the roads are way too wide. Yep, same thing. Yeah. So we're saying how things of video games are too big scaled up so that they don't look tiny based on like the field of view and all that. and GTA has the same thing where all the travel lanes are like 22 feet wide so they can

all in Salt Lake City. So you can't because like if they were realistic wits, you'd come up to a fucking stoplight and you couldn't pass all the cars. Like yeah, it would just be deeply unfun. You'd have to literally stop and wait. As we said, GTA is is, it's not for me. It's not for me. It's, I appreciate a good cross.

story. So, I don't mind killing cops. I just mind the like mean-spiritedness of it. There is a mean and immature game.

There is, there is a lot of that. That's for sure. I think GTA4 was genuinely had, outside the other stuff did have a really good crime story.

It did. GTA 5 did not suck me in. And when San Andreas came out, I was like, what, like a kid? So.

Yeah. But, Were you allowed to play it? Not at first. Yeah, it doesn't shock me. Not at first. Me neither. No, never at home.

Never at home with my parents. Literally, I had to go to a friend's place. Because I have my answer, ready to go. M rated game I was allowed to play. Yeah. You know what? I think, well, no, I think San Andreas was the first I brought home. Because I was 16.

I was like, I'm not, you're not. I had lifted the embargo. My mom. had gone through. Listeners might remember if you talk about this. She went back and forth in the fundy Christian phases. Yes. So,

like, I wasn't able to buy some 41s. Does this look infected because she thought that the zombie looking guy in the cover, if you bring that evil into the home, it will attract evil. And then she fell out of that. And I was like, I was like,

I was like, I'm like, I'm like, almost. I'm buying this game. Right, right, right.

So I think it was San Andreas. because that came in 2004. The first one, so the first emmated game I was allowed to purchase was through my parents and it was Half Life 2 on launch day. Oh shit.

I played Half Life at my cousin's house and my dad was like, okay, like you're clearly like this is violent but like I don't really care because you're killing like you're killing figures. It's a sci-fi movie violent.

Right, right. Not like. Mowing down in a sense, not terrorist. attack simulator. Yeah. Right. I'm playing. It's the same thing

with Doom. It's like I wouldn't let my kid play Doom like like New Doom just because like the violence is ultra stylized. Yeah. Until they're like 14. And then I'm just like you can handle stylized violence. And it's big scary monsters. It's not humans.

It's not even like. New Doom is not even like. New dude. Dude dude. Dude. Dude. Dude. When the big fat guy who launches the fire rockets comes at me, I'm fucking.

I'm fucking out First one I mean I guess for me it would be like when I picked up Team Fortress technically

Right But that was like Once I got my own computer With steam and shit My parents stopped I never I was never allowed To like I never went to a game stop

And bought an Emerita game That was a no no I remember my first My first like No you can't have this It was Vigilante 8 For the for the I remember Vigilante 8

And my mom did not like She's like Vigilantee what does this mean? You're going to be lunching people? Yeah. That's, yep,

it's a car. It's a car crash game. My mom had the weird, fundy stuff, but she was always like, I absolutely no fucking racist bullshit. No, like,

and she had a good, like head for violence. Like, violence against humans, against, like you guys were saying. No. Definitely not,

like, unjustified. Like, she was less concerned with, like, sex stuff didn't, like, really bother her that much.

Right, because you're going to learn that from your peers anyway. Yeah. Like you're going to learn like you're going to you're going to be like in seventh grade and so it's a shit on a girl's chest, right? But yeah. Well, I was I learned early on like she gave me like like the basic age appropriate talk

where that was like I want to say like in first grade or second like just so you know this is how babies are made like no. And she's like don't tell your friends. This is like not for you to teach. This is for their parents to teach when they're ready. Right. Just so you know this is how like the absolute like. basics like nothing explicit or anything like that so I knew early on what that stuff was

and I was like oh that's when I countered it I was like oh that's what sex looks like okay when I got my scrambled TV porn on the the space channel because we had the the unencrypted box for for Comcast I think your mom is kind of like Patty from Port Richmond in a heroic way in some ways but she's a lot she she's she's she's not like um She's not trashy. Right. I know. Yeah.

I would never insult your mother this one. No, no, no. I know what you're saying. But like, Patty, I had to say something off the air about Patty for Port Richmond because I met a real life one. Was that the one about Krasner? I know. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.

You've texted me this before. I had to tell you that. Okay. Yeah. Do you know who Patty Pat is, Jay? No. So Patty Patty Pat is a fictional character that Liam and I came up very early in our friendship, who is a mom from Port Richmond.

It was like a working class Polish Irish neighborhood. Yeah. So, so yeah, single mom. You just got home from work and it's like 5.30 year time. Buck up, bud. Yeah. By having a caffeine crash from the Dr. Pepper I had earlier. So 30 milligrams of caffeine.

He doesn't drink coffee. He doesn't drink tea. He has been forced to drink vodka red bulls at some points in his life. Why would you do that? Once at one point in my life at Fishtown Tavern. So Fishdown Tavern Okay, so you kind of That sort of area, the river wards, right?

So it's a single, she's a single mom from from that area. She's got like two kids. She's a little rough around the edges, but she actually tries her best to be a good mom. Like, and so... Okay. It was...

You can bleep that. Please bleep it, actually. Don't bleep that. Leave it in. I don't actually have no one. I don't know her well enough to comment. So the thing with Patty for Port Rich is that like, you don't leave that in.

That's funny to me. If you're okay with that. Yeah. Give a shit. I do. You will have to bleak this next part. Okay. Here we go.

Which is that he had a red bull vodka to impress a pretty girl. I did. And apparently it worked. It did work. Oh. I mean, who among us has not done? some sort of daring feat, you know. Of alcohol consumption to impress.

Or just anything. I mean, like, it's drinking the Red Bull, you know, 200, 400 years ago, it would have been a acoustic. Rolling a big stone down the hill. Counting coup, you know, for like a Comanche warrior, you know, fighting a dragon in like Scandinavia. Standing backflip just on the spot. I could do that.

I think I could just do that. Me popping a wheelie and then with my friends. And then we ran into each other. there's bikes and then I broke my wrist and then he got a piece of wire from the bike spoke through his leg and we did not oppress the girls the girls laughed at us that's unfortunate to get impaled and to be laughing I don't know which is which is worse it is sort of adding insult to injury very literally yeah we had an incident at fichetown tavern not an incident but it was at undisclosed time and undisclosed location

and Jay and undisclosed were talking and two fans of the show came up to try to talk to me and I was like you can talk to me and my wife you absolutely cannot bother them and they like whipped around they were like okay we'll only talk to you we'll not talk to anyone else I was like that's right this is the first time I'm hearing about so they listened I guess I ran interference for you for which you're welcome incredible actually my wife's kids it's interference nice there you go yeah the the um just like, hey, watch me do this. And apparently that works. I did that. The first beer I ever slammed was with Liam because I'm like, watch this. I bet I can do this. Did you shock on it? Oh, yeah.

Was it a horrible beer like Natty Ice? No, he didn't, he didn't shotgun it because that's a distinctive thing. He did chug a, he did chug a, what was it, like a dirt wolf or something? No, it was like a victory. bury something. I would have been much more impressive as a dirt wall for I did I did I found a fucking storm king I don't think that was the only

beer I just up and downed that yeah no I was that was I was the was it the underground art show yeah that was underground arts yeah I should I wish I could play you guys like through my mind just the absolute depravity that in terms of beer consumption

I mean Liam I'm sure yours is is is is I was at a party in college once and I walked around my my ex I we don't have to go there because my ex's husband listens to the show as far as I'm aware I see you I know I know you're out there oh I hope the I listen to anyway how many bleeps do I have to do now Don't believe that. Don't believe that. You leave that shit in. Do I bleat Fishtown Tavern?

No. Okay. So nothing. I'm believing nothing. Nearly nothing. But hang on. So, okay.

I was at the stage of our relationship where you were like clearly like broken up and like we're living together going to the motions, whatever. And I went to a party. We're not broken up. But like the wedding was on the wall. And I went to party in college or like maybe it was like the first year out. And I was like, my friend was like, oh, I want to like, I just graduated. I want to go back and like kind of save.

my farewells because he graduated in the winter. We were at Temple and I had a thermos, like a Stanley thermos, one of the old school metal ones that was entirely tequila and like four ounces of margarita mix. That's more like it. And I was like, and people were like, what's in the thermos? Like is it like, are you just drinking coffee?

I'm like, no, it's margarita. And they were like like, and I had to explain this. This is not pre-bottled pre-mixed margarita. This is basically just tequila with like enough margarita mix like keep it palatable fuck it yeah it was fucking disgusting dude people were like taking just absolute rips of my

helenthermus the uh my did you ever did you ever uh Kurt Cobain yourself at our house uh did he did kill himself no he did well he did kill himself but do you remember the super soaker full of Canadian

whiskey I had gonna take that one is a no is this what's happening at St. Patrick's Day never happens to you I haven't to you man you're going to have a you're going to have a you're going to have a a propane tank filled with whiskey and that's we're going to mortar the British compound with this yeah yeah we can do that um yeah this is for the men behind the wire I'm going to have to trot out the Irish Republican Party PowerPoint presentation I'll bring my calendar I'm pretty sure if I got caught. We've talked about it on the bonus episode with Jordan,

my IRA calendar, which I'm pretty sure if I'm ever arrested, this could be used as evidence against me. Yeah, you're bummed. Figure one. Figure one. Tom's calendar. Make your wife drive.

Don't drive yourself. Yeah. That's what I'm trying to figure out. Since Jay is going to be in Scandinavia. Oh. And this is the only goddamn day that worked for everybody else. Thanks for nothing.

Everybody else. Scandadia. Skiajavia. I got it. Got it. Yeah, City Skyline is flying me back up to Stockholm. I mean,

that does fucking slap, but that's not the point. Will you get Stockholm syndrome? I didn't last time. We'll see this time. What I was going to say. Okay. What I was going to finish?

No. Can I finish my goddamn sentence? If you want to sleep on my couch, you can. Okay, thank you. That's very sweet to you. Who's,

why are you yelling? No, don't let him here. don't say that to him Jay can you please please to tell them

to fix this one specific fucking bug yeah what's in okay if I have a rohome from a rohome pack I wanted to upgrade to the same fucking version

not a random one because it keeps fucking up my northeast builds and my Southwest builds wish dude, I wish it's supposed to upgrade to the same one. It doesn't. I know.

It doesn't. It's supposed to. Can you tell them if they don't fix it? I will fly to Stockholm. I'll come with you. They won't see me coming because I look like them. That's true. That is true.

You're going to have to go to Finland, though. The new developers are also finished. They're a five-minute walk from the old developer's office. Listen, I played my summer car. I know how Finland works. I played my summer. summer car. I know how Finland works. Vito. I think that's a pretty bad curse word.

I think that means a closer. Satana. You have to like say every vowel is like. It's always, you always have to stress the first syllable of any, either word or phrase. Initial stress, yeah. Which is why, yeah. So I'm going to Finland for the city skylines. Oh, that's a good one. I can't.

It's like the one thing I can say because I've heard them talk about city skylines so often. But it's my bug. The rest of my... The rest of my finish is terrible, but that doesn't... It's got... They have 14 cases, man. You got too many cases. Like, you guys deal with this shit. It's ridiculous.

Like, we got... We had four at one point. We were like, this is too much. We're going to keep two. Well, kind of three. Throw the rest. Throw the rest out. That's what I said today on Blue Sky.

I'm not learning anymore romance languages till they fix the verbs. Look, you need present tense... It's all you need. That's all you need. Present tense past. Look, I use modal verbs for everything else. I don't need to learn 18 different fucking endings for Italian verbs on the subjunctive

past, prederate, you know, perfective subjunctive, whatever. I don't know. I don't need to learn. Why do I need to learn that? Why does Arabic have adjustive and an imperative? They're both ways of issuing commands, but one is slightly nicer.

I'll tell them. I told that my wife that one. It's like, you get to fix that. Fix it. Fix it in. and her bug report. Every language is great. I can do nouns very easily. It's the verbs.

I know why I'm doing Trump hands up. Yeah. Every language is very nice. It's very nice until you get to the verbs. The verbs is a hard one. They're telling me the verbs. Not so nice. All right.

Hello. Welcome to another episode of 10,000 losses. The only Philadelphia sports podcast that exists. I'm your host, Tom Payne. My pronouns are he, him. And with who's my co-host. Yay. Liam.

I think I finish. Yeah, I think it's like Turkish. Fucking woke fins out. Yeah. The Truskins were like that, too. All right, I'm not going to get into the Truskins. Liam's going to kill me. That's okay.

Fuck you. No announcements. If you haven't listened to the bonus of Jordan, listen to it, I think that was a pretty fucking good bonus. And the episode that Jordan was on last time. Did we record two weeks ago, Liam? Or was that Jordan. Have you not been on for like three weeks?

I haven't been on. I was in Austin with... Yes. Jiggin and Rinn. Yeah. Okay, that's right. And then we didn't record last week. We were supposed to record on Monday.

And I forgot. Yeah. A little wonderdldrums. That's been great. Happens to the best of us. It's the best of us. So you can get your slab. And you'll fucking enjoy it.

You tell them. Yeah. So one of the things on this show, Jay, is, is, I see how long we can get before we do the intro. Got it. So 20 minutes. I think we did okay. Yeah, we've got into a half hour before.

That we just remember to do it. Yeah. Like, oh, yeah. And then the actual episode takes 15 minutes. Yeah. Excuse me. Voice mail. Call in 267-37-37-37-218.

Give us your name and pronouns. Tell us what you would do with who's the finish guy. Saté. are we using last names? I mean, he, he's, yes. It's sort of public, I guess. It is public. You bet it's public.

I never know with people. It's like, I always forget to ask, like, I'm editing. I'm like, oh, shit. I think I link out to my website, which is literally jsatai.com. All right. You're going to be more precious about it.

So fucking, yeah, let it rip these days. I, because I always make sure, like, like, everyone gets credit in the beta data, who's on the episode.

I actually try and keep that accurate so that those dumb pod catcher websites. This will be great for my SEO. Yeah, yeah, it'll show up, show up on there. Someone, someone added me to the WTYP episodes I was on on one of those websites. Wow, that's nice. So there's a couple of Tom fans out there.

Temple lost or is losing? Mence? Yeah. Uh-huh. Yeah, they, we're going to talk about that in a second. 4 to Florida Atlantic. Patreon.com so it's 10,000 losses. We get access to every bonus episode.

And you can join us on our Discord where you can talk about all the Temple Basketball. Temple Basketball with all your Charlie posting tragic prelude but for Transite in Kansas.

Oh yeah. Why don't we start off Fuck Kansas. We should say that. It's all to say fuck Kansas. Yeah, trans people deserve rights just like you or I do and try another dignity. If you tolerate this, your children will be next. Yeah.

Just let people live their lives. If you're not their doctor or their any or them or their doctor. Yeah, even if you are their doctor, you're a consultant. You're not the final arbiter. So if

somebody has not asked you specifically to be a part of their business like that, fucking clean off. Yeah, that's a great way of putting it, right? If you're not, if I invite it in, you're not part of the decision. Yeah. You have no say.

Let people do what they'd like to. It's so basic and yet somehow. Every once in a while when we get like someone new at my school, they'll be like, hey, you know, students will be trans or whatever. And I'm known as someone who's, hey, I'll always use your preferred name. How do we do that here? I'm not sure. I don't want to get in trouble.

I was like, oh, in my classroom, you're going to be using the name that they you to use. And that's it. End of story. We'll kill you the God. Yeah. It always works out well. The funny thing is, I've had the tiniest bit of that. My legal name's not J. Right. So I've done that a thousand times. And I've always, it's never been a problem for me. Yeah. To do that. The fact that like for other people and the fact that some people are specifically such fucking assholes that they're like, I'm going to make this a problem. I've never ran into somebody. who because, you know, male presenting, male names, whatever, I go, sorry, I prefer Jay. They go, okay, no problem. Cross it off, write it down. The fact that some people are like, no is fucking ridiculous. Yeah, imagine someone like, Tompane?

I'm only going to call you Thomas. Like, fuck you. Thomas, yeah, sorry, bud. It's like, fuck off with that. It's stupid. It's ridiculous. And even for, just, I don't know. I don't even want to start right now because I'm going to get too angry.

Yeah. Yeah. We try and not get too deep into stuff that we do sometimes. Well, I'm looking at the first news thing, you know, potentially as a segue here, just for some nice, you know, nice non-political content. So let's talk about Kash Patel. Oh, all right. Hold on. Ready?

I'm going to do his face. This is the bro looks like this. Every fucking. Just law. I'm doing, I'm like just staring. Staring at the bottom of my eyes. He's just a camera before? No, he's like,

oh, you man, like he looks like he's fucking stoned his shit in every fucking picture. He probably is. He, I mean, he's fine.

Yeah, that's the least objective, objectionable part. I mean, he's like a moron. Like, like, he's an abject moron.

There are a few people this go around. It's a mix. It's a more dangerous, I feel like, mix of evil and stupid. Whereas last time it felt like it was mostly evil. Yeah.

And some of the smart evil were like, hey, chill, chill, you got to wait. Yeah. Some of the smart evil were like, let's at least slow walk stuff. Let's do it in the ways that seemed a little better. This one is just stupid. Yeah. And Kash Patel is one of the stupidest of all of them. Oh, yeah.

No question. Yeah. It's like that, like, baffling to me. Yeah. And just imagine like partying with the fucking dude. Like, what the fuck is this guy? What is happening with that? At the end of the day, buddy, you're the director of the FBI.

No one's going to actually invite you into a space. There's no reason for you to be in Italy, by the last. What did you say? There's no reason for him to be in Italy. No. Or at least come up with some fake bullshit, right? Come up with like, hey, we've received a credible threat against fucking Team USA or whatever. Don't go for the fucking party.

Yeah. If you really want to be, I am famously pro corruption in a lot of different ways. Timmy Hall did nothing wrong. That's a good book. It's called Machine Made. You should read it. But like if you're going to just make up something actually reasonable, go and at least fucking pretend to do work.

Don't go for the fucking party. You're not invited. You look like an asshole. And nobody wants you there. Except some of these meat head and hockey guys maybe actually did because they're going to the White House. Hitler particles and all that extra bullshit. I don't know.

I'm, I'd be down to go to Las Vegas with Flavafave any fucking day. compared to going to get McDonald's at the White House. Because he fucking did it again. Trump did it again. My big guys. They're pictures of the Olympic hockey team and they're unwrapping like fucking McDonald's double cheeseburgers. I wish the Canadians sort of won.

Me too. So he didn't have to put up with a shit. Yeah. It would have been a good. And we've talked about this before. It's like, you know, hey, these are our guys from our country. And like, it's not about the nation. It's about, you know.

your neighbors or whatever. And it's like, I don't know about the hockey guys though. I think I can disavow them. I'm disavowing them. They're, I mean, they're the,

that chart that came out where they got every like teams like, in every sports, uh, voter affiliation in hockey is even worse than fucking baseball, I think. Yeah. I'm not surprised.

Yeah. Well, you got to be like a, you got to be a rich kid anyway. predominantly white guy. Yeah. Rich kid. Yeah.

Rich kid. usually white, usually suburban. I mean, it's getting, it's getting, all professional sports are getting more and more.

Oh yeah. You have to have some money to get in. Yeah, I mean, one of my favorite ones is like, I used to not be a Lewis Hamilton fan in F1.

But now he kind of because he's the only one on the grid, basically, who has not been, you know, born to some multi-millionaire at least.

And even still, he was like, yeah, no, I had this incredible support from my dad to be able to go carding. We were not rich especially compared to the other people, carting.

But like, if you want to be, if you want to be an F1 driver, you want to be a professional athlete in any sport, you have to be fucking on that shit from age six. Whether that's carding or basketball, you have to be going, I've got some of the people I work with have some, you know,

seriously talented sons who do baseball, like travel baseball. And the amount of time. Oh, yeah. These two different women are like, yeah, no, we had three gay. You know, there was a series out in Fresno, so I had to drive him down for that. I'm just like, that's fucking crazy.

That's like a four-hour drive from Oakland for where these people live. One of my colleagues is, for her kids' team, they're flying out. She was in like Texas. She was in like Nashville. They're flying out all over the fucking place for travel sports. And that was one of the, like, that's one of the things I love about. soccer in particular is like you can see soccer I've seen kids in alleyways in India playing cricket and soccer with like stacks of soda cans or just like soccer just like a

ball right you have a ball and you find two sticks to be your goalposts you know instead of on the ground I mean like like like like like baseball should be like that it's basketball for sure basketball it's fucking crazy right the basketball camps and all this like early development shit and the the uh what was it UAA the UAA stuff like the youth basketball and that's why the NBA AAU. AAU. Yeah, Average Athletic Union.

There we go. And that's why basketball isn't as good as more because all these guys grew up playing against each other. No. We need like a grand re-ameterization of sports and I think in a lot of ways. But I think that's kind of what is a little fun about the Olympics, right? I mean, at least nominally these people are not professionals. And I know that's obviously, you know, huge.

Air quotes around a ton of that. But it's what's fun. It's the last two times it was in Ireland. You know, it was during the GAA finals. That's so cool. And just like everyone turning out, it's like for my county.

And there are amateur rules. I think they're allowed to like do sponsorships, but they're not allowed to get paid. And it's like, Ireland's a small enough country where you have like, oh no, this is like my. cousins, friend. Yeah.

But like like and in Cuba actually has a similar model in terms of its baseball development where you where you play for like your local region and then you as you get better, you go up. And I think I think I I, I, did I say this in the group chat? I don't know if I said this a group chat at Discord, but that the GAA type of model like might actually be what what ends up being like a better like model like model for sporting in general where it's it's local and then maybe you collect

like you have the town team and then like the best it's almost kind of like the Little League World Series in a way but like that all right now we're going to have Pennsylvania versus New York and that's going to be like our state the state by state and that's going to be the national one and then you're rooting for guys from your team from your

from your area and there's more it's like college football how it used to be you know 30 years ago Yeah, being granted Geographic draft. Yeah.

Yeah. The regionalism, local pride, civic pride. I mean, when I was in Dunagall, like how everything was decked out in their colors. Oh, yeah. Claire, everything was decked out of their colors. And lots of local pride. And I think that's just sort of fundamentally. And I have a bit of a bias here coming from Oakland these days and having been spurned by the days especially.

But like, I feel like that's fundamentally incompatible with. modern sports ownership in this country yeah yeah if you can you know sell your team out for a chance at fucking gambling winnings or whatever right yeah right like the only attraction these people have for their teams to their location is how good a tv deal you can get right and that's it it's like what's your fucking rsn that you can get do you own the channel like nessen or like yes or s n why or any of those or like you know the A's sports Philadelphia baby the A's were able to leave because yeah that was

fucking Comcast NBC Sports Bay Bay Area or whatever and it's like well okay they're going to leave because it's not a super super great TV deal they they it should be it should be all right you can't take the name the name of colors a record stay

with the city yeah I totally agree and that immediately opens a new franchise yep and and that was the craziest thing to me about, I know I'm getting off topic and everything, that was the crazy thing to me about this podcast you don't not worry about that. That's the craziest thing of the A's thing.

I don't think anybody actually gave a shit about the John Fisher owned team with Billy Bean or any of the fucking players. I don't think anybody gave a shit about that. It was like taking it, taking something that was a huge part of the local identity, especially in a way to separate it from San Francisco,

which a lot of people, you know, all the working class people over here, not that I can really claim to be one of them. But like a lot of the born and bread people are very specifically East Bay not San Francisco people. Right. Right. And now it's like, well, there's still baseball nearby. It's like, well, not really. So you're like, you look at how successful the Golden Knights have been. Ugh. And I know. But like how much more successful they've been than the Raiders, even for like hockey versus football. Right. How much more success? It's like there's so many advantages to show up, start a new team.

Right? Like it's an expansion, not a move. You come in, you show up, you've got a new brand, a new thing. It's this new homegrown whatever. And then leave it. I would have been so happy with a, what was it, the exposos became the Marlins. And the way it worked is like they went. Yes, it was it came the Nats. At first they became the Marnlands. And then there was a simultaneous expansion. So essentially the Marlins were the expansion team. But they were the, but they were. took everything that wasn't bolted down. I read somewhere that like literally they still had like carts and things that said Montreal Expos on it in Florida. Up until like recently like still stenciled for that.

But they took everything that wasn't bolted down. The expos that later became the Marlins were actually the expansion team that got to take part in the expansion draft and had new ownership and new whatever. And then they got moved to. But like, that should have been fine. And I know a lot of

people like, well in that case it should still be the Kansas City Athletics or the Philadelphia athletics or whatever. Yes. Put them back where they were. Yeah. It's like, okay, still, let's have a local, you know, the Oakland Oaks, which were the minor team before the A's Carolina. Like, let's keep that branding.

Let's keep that franchise alive. I fucking love the ballers now for doing that. And like, they're doing the civic oriented stuff way better than the A's ever did already, even though they're way smaller. Well, I mean, John Fisher clearly just did not. He didn't get shit. He didn't get it. a shit forever. I still, it's interesting. I think, you know, I don't think they're making it back to

Oakland. I don't think they're going to Las Vegas either, though, which is really funny. No, they're going to die in Sacramento. No, I think they're going to Salt Lake. Salt Lake. Interesting. Just in time for the lake to dry up. Sacramento hell, but Salt Lake City is a huge market that has no baseball, you know, they're really underrepresented sportswise, especially baseball, obviously. But like, I think that's, they've, they've been penned. for an expansion team for a long time. The Vegas thing, it's like, I know they're building shit. And I was, you know, they're farther than I ever thought they'd be on the Vegas shit.

But like that seems like it's, you know, one of the very early dominoes that are going to fall in whatever upcoming economic collapse is going to happen. And it's just not being done fast enough to outpace that, right? It's one of those things like, okay, cool. They've got foundation pilings in and whatnot. But like, Vegas tour. is already dropping and some point some bank is going to fold or you know whatever AI will burst in the wrong way and well we just going to keep chasing the richest absolute top percent of spenders so it'll just be like you can book the entire fucking like hotel the casino

you know for a billion dollars and private casino floor yeah yeah we'll helicopter you over from the private jet terminal i can't wait for nature to reclaim uh what was uh what was taken from it in Las Vegas. Me too. Salt Lake City eventually will collapse into the Bingham Canyon mine. Good.

I'll be right. Meanwhile, we'll get our friends out of there first, but yes. Meanwhile, the city with the best weather in the country for baseball is sitting here with a giant empty stadium. Yeah.

I mean, that's, that's, I don't want to get too into this. Because I could talk, I could actually talk like all this baseball like the teams that Yeah, we're supposed to be talking about other stupid relocated Bay Area teams today. We will, we will.

But I love, one of the things that when I first discovered out of the park baseball was going in and just creating a million amateur leagues based on like the old ones that used to exist. Like the Pacific Coast Coast League, like original format and stuff like that.

And like they would pick up the players who like wouldn't get picked up by the other independent leagues and just seeing what would happen with the stats and everything like that you know you can see some 45 year old guy have a new career but like that that kind of that kind of stuff you had these these proliferate like it's like hey why are we doing like fucking farm teams and the fucking ass end of of main or some shit or the Midwest where it's still fucking cold like let's go out west where it's nice year round and I mean that's why they have the complex leagues in the southwest and down in Arizona and then in Florida.

Yeah, there was a real, and there was a real chance for the Pacific Coast. I don't, I'm not sure if I'm getting it right, if it was a Pacific Coast League or was it different name coming, becoming the third league to merge with Major League Baseball. So a lot of those original teams could have actually end the West Coast teams could have merged. But of course, one ended up happening is like they took the Brooklyn Dodgers and moved them west. They took, you know, the athletics and moved them west.

Which one of, it's, there's so many weird things. And like, you look at some of those and NFL, I love the NFL old days because, you know, it's the biggest, the biggest, big, the hugest stadiums, whatever. And then, you know, one of the most selective leagues. But it's like, you look at like when they started and what random fuckass little Rust Belt towns had NFL franchises. Oh, yeah. It's so funny.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Bring back the local athletic club. Yeah, yeah. It does. that really though it should be this is the athletic club we have

we have football baseball basketball hockey and you find your you find your best guys I've loved how many like local guys the ballers have like the ballers have open tryouts and people to show for open tryouts make the team yeah that rules and I think that's just more fun I don't give a shit about watching major league baseball

home run still pretty much hits the same yeah and it's cool as fuck when it's like random dudes you know off the street yeah I still couldn't do that Like, let's do, let's do it's a shame, it's a shame that the sport I'm probably would be the best off the bat with

is the one that gives the most brain damage. Like, fucking put me to edge rusher. Put me in a fullback. I go my god, full back triple option. How, William, imagine watching me do that. Imagine watching me stiff arm a guy. With your knees and your calves.

Who cares? Yeah. They're rebuilt. They're rebuilt. They're rebuilt like calves, their strength. I'm trying to think. I feel like I could be one of those. weird fuck-ass pitchers.

Yeah. Like a sub-rater. Do you have, yeah, you've got like wingspan. Yeah, and that's why. Because of a weird arm slot. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You could be, uh, what's this? What am I thinking?

Craig Kimberl. You could, you would be better than, you would be an immediate upgrade on Kimbril. But like, I feel like if I had been picking a sport, I could be one of those weird closers with absolutely inscrutable politics. You know, like just the weirdest fucking. guys, just absolute baseball psycho. Because I mean, I'm not tall enough to be like a basketball

guy. Everyone was, oh, you play basketball? I'm like, not really basketball. I'm tall. I'm 6'5. But basketball people, 6.5 is like, damn, that guy's tiny. I mean, shooting guard, 6.5. Yeah. I mean, I thought...

Steph heard 6.3. I mean, I don't know. But Steph is like famously tiny. Yeah. The I had a student years ago. One of the things was like, oh, it was nice out. Like, let's do a class outside.

And we're like, you know what? Let's just have a catch with like a bunch of the kids. So we had a catch. And the kid was a lefty. And he was real lanky. And he keeps throwing it. I'm like, yo, okay, listen. We're having a catch.

Like, you need to like chill. You're throwing like 70 at me right now. With break. You're like bear handing it. He's throwing it with break. And I'm like, show me your grip. He's throwing me two seamers. I'm like, you do know that you're actually,

you should probably try out for the baseball team. Yeah, that's impressive. I can't see where I'm actually watching your release and you're throwing a two seamer and I'm watching you snap your wrists. Like you're throwing like like kind of like a cutter at this point. Like, um, and I'm worried you're going to hit me in the head. So please. How did you do catching?

How was this control? Yeah. No. Oh, dope. fly and pass. I'm like, you're going to start hit cars. You got to stop. Like, we're done. We're done. Everyone got to stop playing catch now because Joe Schmo won't

stop throwing heat. I was throwing the baseball. I want to drag you I want to drag you to the baseball team. Please go play. I can't believe you having to try to bear hand this guy's 70 mile an hour

two seamers. Oh, I did have a glove. But, uh, yeah. If you got a glove, come on. Let the kid play. I was no, I was like trying. I'm like, you throw, like, I'm like a scout at this way. I'm like, okay, on the 80 scale. You're going through every kid in the class. Yeah.

Uh-uh. You're 20. You're a 20. Ah, you're 45. Hey, let's. Hey, that tracks. That's major league. That's major league ball player.

So, um, uh, so we get a baseball. World baseball classic coming up soon. Wow. 44 minutes and 30 seconds in. So I love the world baseball classic. It's great. The Trump admin declined to give the Cuban team officials visas. Fuck off, dude.

Yeah. So we're doing that. Great. I love doing nationalism with my... Aren't you excited for the fucking Olympics in 2028? I hope Cuba nukes us. We're not twice a year. World Cup.

Yeah, this 2020. World Cups this year. And we're going to say fucking problems. Yeah. Stupid as hell. Friends of the show, Matt, was looking at World Home Run Derby, speaking of, like, things happening in Philly this year. And was, was it, $500 tickets starting?

Yeah. For the home run, yeah. Zathe was like, yeah. Yeah, so this isn't for, this is it for us. No. The World Cup is not for us either. It's not going to be, you know, affordable. No.

But at least Wheeler's thrown again. So we got that down in spring train. But I am, I am pumped for the World Baseball Classic. I'm not sure. Are we room for Team USA? No. It's got some of our guys on it. Root for Cuba?

We're in for Cuba. I like the Mexico uniforms. That's it. Fucking, we're burned for us six uniforms. Mexico is fucking, you know why? It's the 1968 Mexico Olympics. It's the incredible, like, Mexican miracle era modernist design. And there's like, yeah, there's fucking rocks.

We're going to keep using it. Yeah. So it's the sick-ass late 60s when Mexico was really, really fucking on top of everything and especially like Mexican tinged modernism is just the coolest fucking look. Our uniforms

suck balls. Our Olympic uniforms for the Winter Olympics sucked too. I'm disappointed in it. Is the UK in again this time? Maybe. If they are, I hope they get fucking shocked. Their uniforms suck again. I think Japan's are okay, right? Japan's are nice.

Japan's Japan. God, the Great Britain uniforms you just, for those you can't see, send a link. These are so bad. Great Britain. They're bad. It's very similar. Yeah, Japan's are tight.

Depends are always strict. Yeah, they're pretty sick. Let's see. World Baseball. It's always good when I go. Yeah. The USA one with the Korea's. All right.

Puerto Rico. Sports, baseball, baseball, baseball. Let's see. It's nice. baseball hidden under more sports on the Nike website. Oh, yeah. Cool. God, the USA one is so bad.

It looks like an Iron Pigs jersey. The Iron Pigs are the AAA team. It's supposed to have, like, the S is supposed to be like the American 250 ribbon or whatever the fuck. It does look like bacon. Let me show you. That's so funny. It looks exactly like bacon. No, there's an Iron Pigs Bacon jersey.

Yes. And let me show you, Jay. But regardless. It looks like dog shit. It looks like the UNA texts have like the serifs. It's like weird and Trumpy like that where it's like trying to be old formalist Roman revival, whatever. Oh, God. It looks like dog shit.

I'm trying to get you a link that's not fucking Facebook. There you go. That's the bacon USA jersey. And it's like that could be the ass on the World Baseball Classic. Absolutely. Yeah. I honestly The team USA should

Go out Into the World Baseball Classic In the Bacon USA jersey Just use those straight up And it would be way better Yeah I agree Yeah So it's it's

It's uh W was just sorry March 5th Something like that I think it's the first like Tell you know what maybe I'm rooting for Puerto Rico Oh that that's acceptable in this.

Puerto Rico rules. God, the Japan jerseys are great. Team USA is going to play the Giants in the exhibition. That's interesting. Oh,

all right. Let's see. Ooh, the Netherlands. We're going to play Baltimore. Netherlands? Netherlands? Hey,

Hongball hoof to class. Oh. Huckball hoopta class. And that's right. Oh, Cuba is playing at Kansas City. That's in salt. I don't go great. Team in Italy.

They're coaches. Yeah, Team Italy is playing Of the Cubs Um The, ooh Uh, Mexico's playing Arizona Um Who's Japan playing?

Do they have like Japan playing the Dodgers or some bullshit? Let me see That would be sick though. Oh, it would be fucking sick, but also rigged, rigged, rigged, rigged, rigged. Uh, Israel's playing, playing in Miami. Where's, uh, Japan? Uh, God. Japan not participating.

Oh. Wow. In the exhibition. That's less fun. No, the next day, the next day? Let me give you the link here. This is the schedule. That's the third.

I wish my biggest problem with all these kick-ass jerseys and I'm still scrolling through the Nike site, which has no way to sort by World Baseball Classic. Of course not. Fuck you. Oh, Team Canada is playing Philadelphia. I would be fun. On March 4th. I can't do that.

I'm doing the, so my. Israel's playing the Mets. Yeah, I think they are. Steve Cohen, you son of a bitch. I go, I'm not going to make a dual-lawlessy joke. I'm not going to make a dual-lilessy joke. You're not off base. I'm sorry, Liam.

I'm sorry. Why am I Jewish, man? It's fine, man. Yeah, who do you as a Philadelphian Jew root for in Israel versus Femmets? I would have to root. If you put a gun to my head, would you rather root for Israel to the bets? As a Phillies fan, I'm forced to pick Israel.

You're going to have to bleep that just to leave it. I might clip that. You're going to do the opposite. You're going to do the opposite. Get me having a clear crash out over having to root for Israel. My great shame is that as somebody who's half, you know, been American too long to be able to piece out any previous things, except for like whales and half Indian, man, all the Team USA stuff always sucks. All the Team India design stuff also sucks. It's terrible. I would love like an Indian national team cricket shirt or whatever, but it looks like dog shit. It looks horrible. I would love, though, if we could be like, hey, team India cricket, you guys are pretty good. Let's get you guys the baseball too.

Give you a shot. Even more. We'll let you use cricket matches. International just absolutely like Israel, Pakistan, World Baseball Classic match. I just want to say it. If you guys can ever go see even the American Cricket League, the Major League Cricket thing, which had a big. residency in Oakland last year. It fucking rules.

I'm a huge cricket watching fan live. I don't watch any of the stuff on TV because I don't know where the fuck you stream. Or could you possibly stream that? I'm sure you can. I'm sure you can. The box that my

my father-in-law brought back from Egypt that has all the channels in the world on it. That definitely doesn't have like crypto mining built into it. Oh, it does. You'll get some. But holy shit, if you can watch cricket live, cool sport makes baseball look boring as fuck.

I watched a couple guys. I said this in the previous spot. I ran into a bunch of guys up by me, the park by me. It was like Sunday morning at like 9 a.m. I was going for a walk and they're just playing cricket. I'm like, oh, my shit. I almost wanted to be like, yo, can I like, can you like show me?

I still think the pose that cricket batsmen make after a swing where they're like down on one knee almost. That is, I think, with the bat back over, I think that's the coolest, like, po, like the coolest silhouette in all of sports. Right? The amount of power is like, I'm swinging this fucking two by four. So hard I have to kneel down while doing this. And also this guy just ran, you know, 40 feet and threw it windmill overhand. It's crazy.

I just, I just, all right, I see what you're saying. But hold on. I'm going to raise you one second. link in the chat I know but I think that's the thing is that's it's it's a

it's what Schwabre doing the same thing it's the same thing yeah but with cricket it's like all the time it's like how you're supposed to do it it's like throw yourself

into it 100%. I think that you know the baseball post huge swing is probably the second coolest yeah yeah when your knees in a baseball swing is not is not

what you're supposed to, though. It's not what you're supposed to. Yeah, you've done it wrong, but cricket's like, good work, good job. Yeah. I'm looking at the guy in the background of this watching the home run. I have that same video camera he's using. Oh. How about that? Um, all right, let's let's let's let's let's jump to our deep dive at 54 minutes at 54 minutes in. So we have you here as a, as a, uh, a Bay Area resident. Um, and noted, um, intellectual, uh, person who knows what buildings are. Yeah.

Some buildings are. Yeah. To talk about this. Weird. I wouldn't talk about this for this. The state was haunted by a electromagnetic radiations. Yeah. By the ghost of Hassan Redick breaking

Brock Purdy's fucking arm in the end of my. Station's haunted by an electrical stadium, rather, is haunted by an electrical substation that long predates the stadium. Oops. Yeah. So Levi Stadium. So the 49ers, some of you guys,

may, listeners may have heard this, that an electrical substation is maybe the reason why 49ers players are getting hurt at a higher rate. Real quick, to be clear, no, it isn't. But it's funny to suppose it is because a whole bunch of dumb sports brand guys think maybe it is.

And that's funny. I choose to believe that it is. Yeah. So what is a 49er? What is a 49er? What is the 49er? Somebody who came out for the gold rush. Damn it, you beat me to it.

I'm sorry. It's okay. In 1849. It's also a very easy team for an extremely lazy Grand Theft Auto parody where they can be the 69ers. Wow. That's so original. Someone let, someone let, say, Skylines guys know that one. Maybe hopefully they won't steal it.

Like the ball sackers instead of the ballers. City Skylines. like 69s sexy nine 60 you guys say with a finish accent though I can't do that 69ers I'm Swedish I'm Swedish so

well that's how's your Swedish Liam bad I know six words my Swedish is chef so football work we'll see how that plays

in Stockholm in two weeks assume that's how great grandfather OLAF coming around the boat. I would just start speaking old English to them and see if they could. To fucking roughly translate. All right.

Each hotel, Tom, Seific. No, they can't do that. Yeah. I forgot to do that when I was in the Netherlands. Just speak old English to them. Anyway, go ahead. Anyway, across the street from, I think specifically the thought is it's the practice facility. It's a practice facility.

The substation is right next to the actual stadium, too. It's like 1,000,000. from the 50 yard line, but it's even closer to the practice facility. And we'll call them the greatest minds in sports. I think that something with this normal work-a-day electrical substation has anything to do with people getting injured. So the concern that these people have is electromagnetic radiation.

It's the same paranoia that people are like, oh, 5G is going to give you. Genuinely. It's the same shit. You vaccinate your unvaccinated sperm and microwave view like your sexy little pot-thart. But for this, it's like they're tearing their ACLs because of the electromagnetic radiation. Which makes even less sense. Your ball's getting terrible. So this substation, right, is, is, and correct me if I'm wrong, but it's like taking like high voltage and stepping it down for like local distribution.

It's a transformer station. It's been there forever. you know, I'm trying to track where the high voltage comes from right now and I can't quite see it because I think they bury lines around here. By the way, if you are looking for

where the power lines are and you don't want to get flagged on Google for looking up critical infrastructure, aviation maps. Of course. Putting that out there for everybody. Just for everyone.

I was doing that for City of Skyline's map and I was like oh shit where does that come from and I almost Googled it yeah they go where I thought they go along the railroad nearby which means these are ancient ancient lines they've been

here forever and we'll continue to go there forever I'm sure they connect some horrific natural gas paker plant somewhere and so during this process because I've heard conspiracies about high voltage lines it'll make

your teeth vibrate. I've heard, oh, it'll make you see ghosts because it's either resonance frequency or it's a layline or some shit. I've heard so much shit. There's a lot of stuff like that that comes up. And the tricky part is that some of it is kind of real. But it's usually radio towers that people can pick up high power radio stations on like their fillings. or like a drawer of forks or a chain link fence. And the way that actually, like, the way those work is because you're,

you're fucking around with the amplitude and the frequency. I think it's usually amplitude stuff on A. And it's like high powered for broadcast. Exactly. They're literally trying to force these waves out as much as possible and spend energy into broadcasting these waves in the radio spectrum of the electric or in the radio range of the electromagnetic spectrum. Okay.

Yeah. So like, like, like, and just everyone knows, I think everyone probably learned this in school, but all light, all radio waves, they're all part of the same spectrum. Gamera rays, XRAs, right? Gamma rays, Xeroys, ultra, rays, ultra, light, visible light, and so, so like. All the way down to radio A's. RadioAs can be like the size of the fucking planet. You know, the sun is blasting these things out at all frequencies. Yeah. We're having, we're having thousands, more than thousands, millions of radio waves of all different things going through. through us right now. Yeah, every radio station is blasting straight through your body right now. Every satellite is. Every, every GPS ping, your phone, your trinos coming from the other side of the fucking plant. You are. And microwaves are part of the same spectrum. They're just way, way, way higher energy. And like if you've ever, if you're, as anyone's ever gotten close to like a broadcast tower or stuff, they actually do have warnings, you know, certain areas like don't, don't be here without when it's powered up. Um, we've had, um, there's, you know, you don't want to get too close to a radar when it's on

on a boat, um, or radars in general because I mean, somebody like, fuck what you're, you could, you could literally like cook chickens with like by holding them in front of like, especially old school like giant radars in fighter and like reconnaissance aircraft. Mm-hmm. Like those do absolutely blast power out. But we're, that's all we're talking about. It's not what we're talking about. You know what I mean?

But there is enough similarities with those facts. that people can think they cross over, which is pretty funny and weird. Like, you know, and electrical substations seem strange. It's a big thing full of a bunch of weird looking technology. Mysterious, right. Mysterious technological equipment.

It's probably humming and buzzing. Just like transformers do that, right? You'll get that 60 hertz and you never really see people there, right? It looks like it's out of a lab. You get the, you know, the insulators and things. and you hear bz and whatnot. And like there's a sketchy looking shed on that site that I guarantee you just has like spare insulators

and boring shit. But man, does it feel like that's, you know, the entrance to a secret subterranean facility for mind control bullshit? Which it is. Which those those sexy mind control. Are hidden a little better? Yeah.

They're not going to put that in the substation. Are you kidding? That's going to be, you know, an apartment building a Starbucks, somewhere people actually go into. One of those, one of those, like, the buildings in New York City where they have, like, the switches for all the phones. The NSA switch. Yeah, a telephone exchange, a subway ventilation building.

Yeah. You know, the men and black thing was the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel. Yeah. It's going to be like that shit. It's not going to be your substation. Now, and get me, stop me from wrong here, but if the substation was giving off a lot of energy, it would not be. working correctly because the energy is supposed to be in the wires.

Yes. That's where the energy goes. Going to the houses and generally connected to it. Any sound you hear or light you hear or any radiation coming off of an electrical substation is energy that is not being transformed or dealt with properly. You know, it's the equivalent of like when you hear a really loud car. Right. That's technically you're wasting energy.

Something is not going right with that. You know, you're not getting. all the go you could be getting. Oh no, my pro off valve. Yeah, right. Who needs a muffler? That's white, dude. Yeah. Who needs that?

It's so funny. Around here, there's so many people who get their catalytic converter stolen. Whenever I hear a loud car, I look around and it's either an asshole and a dodge, and it's always a dodge, or some poor, I assume, like teacher or somebody looking mortified in a Prius. That's had his catalytic converter stolen,

and the muffler cut off. And it's always, always a pre-us too. And they're just like, this is the worst day of my life. As loud as they can imagine. I mean, at least take advantage of it.

Be proud as shit. Like, I got my fucking, I got a straight- if you were to freeze through this, Bras. I'm doing pulls of my O-A. Pius.

My Prius is rolling coal. Don't worry. I'm just as confused as you are. That might be the episode. That's more shame than you've ever seen anybody in life, which is always extremely funny to me. Yeah. Just like, I'm sorry, dude. I get it. You do not want to be. You want to be anywhere else in the universe, except for here right now,

making too much noise. I'm still going to laugh at you, though. So, so put a fine point in this, is this real? Yes. No. Yes. Could, could, could electromagnetic radiation tear your ACL? Yes. Yes. Yes. Absolutely. George Kittle deserves it. Yes. Yes. So does Brock Purdy.

Brock Purney being like, I pray to my, I pray to my God and I have faith in my God. And the son Reddick crushing his fucking arm into powder. Do you think, do you think? Ain't no God at the lake. Go birds. Do you think the EMF acted through his son Redick as a sort of avatar? Yes, I do. I do believe that, actually. That's more plausible than the, right?

I feel like the EMF should absolute worst. And this is, again, like, sort of conspiracy-e thing. Absolutely. If you, like, lived in one of these houses that are closer than, you know, equally close to the substation, if not closer than the practice facility or the stadium. Should you not also be having these injuries? You probably would also. Yeah.

But, like, there might be the tiniest bit of some sort of tiny issue with, like, how some of this random EMF effect. your brain. Though my guess is it'll be just like you can hear a low 60 hertz hum at all times through your ears. Right? Like that's how it would... That's right. Actually fuck with you.

And by that, you know, the combined slightly worse sleep you're getting because you can hear this thing. I have heard the hypothesis that like the, was it the infrasound could be and if it does vibrate like at a certain frequency, it could make you see what you think are ghosts

because it creates like... Yeah, the 49ers seeing ghosts, whenever they play in Sondredic, am I right? Like, oh, whoa, whoa. All right. Oh, yeah, we got a soundboard on here. Thank you. Not a lot. There's not a lot.

But it's just strange. It's not, and it's one of those things. So for a little more background, the four years moved there, what, like eight, nine years ago now? But their practice, their practice thing has been there for like that has been there for even longer. So like Jerry Jones, like, in the art. article, Jerry Jones, the owners, like, Jerry Jones played practice there and didn't have issues. Yeah. But it's coming up now, like, because of the recent move and because they have injuries, and people are really trying to figure out a way to not be like they should look at their doctors

or maybe, you know, they're pretty sure. Yeah, look at the fucking medical staff. Absolutely. Pretty sure it's a turf practice field as well, if not a turf field field. It's sort of hard. to tell because they don't let you go and walk on it. Fucking turfs. Like, it really looks like turf because there's a pretty clear line between the grass on the other side, especially

for... It's just a giant, the field is just a giant, it's the cover of Harry Potter. Sorry. But, yeah. But like, I was pretty good. Bad turf and astroft is so much more likely to hurt

people, and especially in the physical ways they're getting hurt. If these were people like going crazy or like developing migraines that caused them to sit out or whatever. That's the sort of thing you might expect if you are really trying to come up with anything like this. That would be actually interesting. Like when,

how long has it been turf and then what's the injury rate between? Versus right. Yeah. It's so strange. And in turf, especially early turf, I don't know how it is now, but like, have you heard of the veteran stadium cancer cluster. Oh, yeah. Yes.

We've talked about on the pod, but yeah, like, is there some sort of chemical that's off-gassing and it's doing something not good to you either? You know, who knows? Yeah. But it's just like, so the excuse for how this actually would affect sports, you know, is like it breaks down, but the EMF radiation somehow like breaks down proteins in your body by practicing and being near to this,

which is extremely strange. You know, it's not really, it's obviously has no scientific basis. It's like people who, you know, think that chem trails are real. You know,

it's, yeah. It's crazy how the chem trails turn. off in the summer. It is wild how it does that. Yeah. It's very strange.

The, the, yeah, and I like how people, in the article, I can like the article in the show notes, like,

it's just like a local ABC 7, I guess he's got the local. They're just like, yeah, we should consider everyone's, you know,

thoughts on this matter, but it's kind of bullshit. it. Yeah, no. They found sort of... It's a lot of like correlation and causation stuff. Yeah. The...

Yes, injuries are high profile and yes, it's been a while, but that's a combination of, you know, medical staff, coaching staff, pushing players hard. You know, the more and more hours of practice you need, you know, we'd be seeing, if there was more substance to this story, we would be seeing so many more people living near that substation. Yeah. Be like, my bones are false. apart, right? Like, there would be, if you look at any of these articles that people are actually, you know, proposing they all connect, any of the ones that people are saying this is real, the evidence is flimsy at best, not really existent at worst, and it's like random, you know, there's no like multiple tests, nobody has gone nearby and talked to the people that live there.

It's just, it's, it's comedic to be like, why is my team winning the Super Bowl? Oh, it's because of this. This goes their electromagnetic radiation. You know, it'll be more likely if they were cursed for building on a,

you know, ancient burial ground. Which it probably is. Yeah, you never know. It's stolen land. So I hope the Oloni, if the Oloni want to curse

the 49ers for that, feel free, actually. Actually, yeah, that's probably, that's probably, let's look into that. That's probably a more likely explanation. Because you would have,

like, you said, like people nearby would have, like, you would think that, like older people who already injury prone like not athletes or you have a lot more muscle to lose before you get an injury

you would have like just the the ACLs of every elderly person within a certain radius would be like going very quickly and especially the people who don't you know live weightlifting and eat you know exclusively biohacked engineered

HGH protein shit would be you know falling apart if they're saying that these, you know, peak of the peak athletes at, you know, pushing the bounds of human physique and fitness. Yeah. Are running into their ligaments falling apart. Like, that's a, you'd have normal people, you know,

ripping shit up too. But just like dying in bed because one day their, you know, heart lost enough muscle mass to stop working. Yep. And you're not seeing that. destroyed my valve, you know. Yeah. It's just, it's, it's, it's funny.

I shit my pants because the EMF ruined my sphinx. That's my excuse. Yeah, I show my pants because you'd see. You'd see all these houses nearby shitting their pants because they, you know, or just like walking around and snapping ACLs like there. Like the twigs, right. Yeah. My teeth are falling out because the EMF is vibrating the roots of my teeth.

The roots of my teeth. there's a great YouTube video is looking out. When you said, do you want to have me out for this? I'm like, let's do some, let's do some independent research, right?

Yeah, trust what Tom sends me. Rational wiki. Yeah. Rational, Jesus, correct. They're fine with science stuff.

Do not look up what they, they're all lives. Do not look up with their political opinions on anything. At the center is, they are immediately attack anything socialist because half of 90% skeptics are libertarians, but. But I saw somebody. That went and looked.

It's just like, guys, the four unites, they're having all these injuries because they are signing injury prone and older players. Like, that's it. That's the answer. There you go. Like, we can't outright, full-blown dismiss EMF because nobody's done the actual scientific rigor and testing. The reason why scientists haven't really done rigorous testing is because it's sort of

nonsense. Stupid on its face. You know, it would be like testing, I don't know, I want to be. like testing if the sky is blue. You know, testing if water's wet. It's a little stupid. Oh, technically, water isn't right. It's, you get some like, dumb ass.

But, yeah. Yeah. So it's like, you can't, people aren't. And when people ask scientists and doctors and experts about this, you can't just outright say no. Right. If you're educated about this, you have to say it doesn't seem like it. Right.

You can't just say, no. I am not a doctor or a scientist or anybody. So I'm happy to out. right, say no. Yeah. But I know that this hasn't been fully proven to not be anything, right? There's no, there's no, it's like, you're saying it's like, listen, we don't, like, I can't just prove it because I don't have a study or something

like that. But according to the laws of nature as I know it, this is highly unlikely. Yeah. You know, it's what's more likely is like a nocebo effect. Yeah, exactly. And, you know, there's no. It's weird. It's weird because you can't, you know, it's the same thing.

It's like, we can't say that gravity is more than a theory or whatever, right? There's there, I'm, well, gravity, gravity being a theory, the scientific term theory is different. Right. Of course. And the colloquial term theory, because the colloquial theory is basically hypothesis. It's hypothesis. Yeah. Yeah.

Well, I'm sorry, mixing metaphors and trying to. No, no. Yeah, because a theory in science, basically a law. like is something that's been proven. It's a hypothesis that stood rigor. And, you know, this, this hasn't really stood the, the, the, hypothetical that this, you know, substation is snapping ACLs and destroying proteins and things.

And people have been afraid of radio waves since the radio started. Constantly. Yeah. And, you know, there is also, like, there's probably some effect. You know, it's probably not ideal that we're being bombarded with radioies and things all the time. I will say a decent amount of it is natural. You know, the sun is raising a shitload of radio waves. Good question.

I would imagine, at least while we're facing the sun, that radio waves from the sun outweigh by several orders of magnitude, the radio waves that we get from terrestrial or human-made sources. I would wager that not, not. I was going to say, I don't know that for a fact, but I don't. know that for a fact. It's possible. But it's a, there's two sciences I know a bit about.

One is astronomy and one is, one is weather. Yeah. I would wager that I'm right. Someone go look that up if you want to. Yeah. We're not doing it here. Because the sun is such,

such a star, even our measly puny little star in the scale of things is such an immensely powerful thing. Oh, yeah. all human comprehension. I mean, the fact that you could go outside and I know obviously what we perceive of the electromagnetic spectrum is pretty weak,

right, or you know, pretty narrow. But like, you can feel the heat from the sun. You can see the light with your eyes. You can feel it on your skin. It hurts. If you stay next to a substation, you can't really feel the power coming off that substation.

No. Maybe you can hear some of it, but you can't feel it in the same way that you can feel the sun. Is it the same people who wear like whether the neutron, the proton necklaces or whatever? The ion necklaces. Remember that?

But yeah, it's a lot of, it's a sort of weird combination of like health quackery meets sports science meets want an excuse for why my team isn't good anymore. And by isn't good, I mean, you know, tied for second in the NFC West this past year, made it to the playoffs, did pretty okay there, lost to the eventual Super Bowl champion, you know, It's like, that's the funniest part, right?

It's not like it's a truly cursed franchise. It's not like they moved to this new stadium and new practice facility. I just immediately started falling apart. It's a solid garbage, bottom dwelling nothings with thousands of players being hurt. It's like slightly above average as, you know, the, yeah, it's very funny. It's weird. It's, you know, it's just like, oh, they're, they're signing older players. They're signing people who have been.

hurt before they're getting hurt again. Doctors need to be examined. Yeah. And it's also a brutal sport to play. Like it's yeah. And hey, guess what? More people get more injured now because we're coming up with more efficient ways for football to hurt people. Uh-huh. Right? You're O line

and your D line. You're running backs. They are bigger and faster and larger and more powerful than they've ever been, which means there's more, you know, strain on every individual human's body on every play. The collisions have that much more energy in them. The force, you know, to shove somebody is that much more. And the thing with the human body, if we were to talk about like an increase in tendon injuries, is that tendons take longer to adapt. And that's when you are on.

If you weight lift naturally, your tendons will pretty much adapt. they take longer, but you're not going to exceed. The average person is not going to exceed their attendance capacity. Obviously, there's always flaws in everyone's bodies. Shit happens, right. Sometimes some of us have such powerful calves that they, rip one going to first.

Rit one, you know, running back to first to the tag up. It happens to us sometimes. There's no shame in it. It just means you're really powerful and handsome. But, no. If you are someone who's like, these guys are all on some sort of enhancement. Right. And when you get got, like when first, they're on some sort of enhancement and their tendons can't catch up because that's one group.

You can't just like, oh, hypertrophy of the tendons. Right. You can't like just do that right away. Just that's not the way your tendons work. And that's why like bodybuilders have a higher rate of tendon injury. So I forget what video of the guy he's doing bicep curls. and you just watch his bicep tendon curl up his arm. Like, yeah, dude, that tendon is not rated for that muscle and the first that you're putting on it.

We're pushing the bounds of human bodies right now. And tendons and, you know, musculature and things like that. The soft tissue is going to snap. Yeah. You're, you know, you get a couple broken bones and things. But also, like, we're pushing these people harder. Right. They're practicing more.

They're doing all this crazy shit. And that leads to people getting hurt. I mean, it's the same reason. It's like, whoa, it's crazy that, you know, they must have changed the baseballs because everyone's getting tummy John these days. Oh, yeah. No, it's not.

It's just because everybody, you, everyone's doing 100 mile an hour at age 15 or whatever. Oh, well, pitchers can't go to distance anymore. It's like, yeah, because you're expected to throw 97, 98 mile by a basketball as a starter. As a start. Yeah. whole game. I remember it was, it's fucking crazy how many players, even like in recent memory.

I remember that a pitcher throwing 100 was like, holy shit. They were one of the best in baseball. 20 years ago, that was like, oh, my God, can you believe? Holy grail. Even like 15, 10 years ago, right? I remember Thor on the Mets, Cindergard was like, holy shit, damn, that dude can throw 100 for a while. That's crazy.

And now it's like the third, the third starter on an average team. You know, the third starter on a wildcard team. Yeah. can throw five innings of every team has a guy out of the bullpen who could throw at least 1001 once right 1001 out of the bullpen is insane to me yeah right this dude's thrown you know 40

um 40 like 40 warm up pitches and then goes in guns 105 right yeah the shame it's who threw that 105 mile per hour pitch this is a horrible horrible human being a ralda's Chapman oh yes but it's like how do you shit out of women. I know.

Man, it fucking, the Red Sox are bringing so many shitty people on these days. It's driving me nuts. Expand the team. Expand the league. Delute these things. Make more worse players able to come in.

Get rid of the assholes. But it's crazy, you know, and it's like that's so clearly to me what, and again, I'm not a doctor. I'm not a sports medicine guy or whatever. But like,

just pushing all these people to such an incredible level of play, is what's causing these injuries. Absolutely. And it's not radio waves or, you know, the substation or any of this shit. You know, I'm sure at some point there has been sports medicine relating to EMF radiation. And my guess is it was pump yourself full of as much of it as you possibly can. There's probably something Bryce Harper has done in the offseason. Yeah, probably.

I'm going to sit in the EMF chamber. I'm going to sit a microwave chamber so that my. Chakras are realigned. Yeah. That guy so fucking much. Light down on this FM transmitter until you can, you know, hear whatever we're broadcasting in your brain. Like, until you can feel your brain vibrate.

That's where we can hear the pitchcom. Yeah. But it's like, it's... I have a secret chip in my teeth. I can... My fucking can... Can... Un encrypt the pitchcom from the other team.

The Astros are like... Furious. shit. Yeah, let's get that. Yeah. Let's do it. That's still a relevant sports reference. Sure. I keep bringing it up.

And like, as fucking stupid. While we're on this, because this goes back to like the players and stuff like that. Like basketball, people are talking about like people have to sit out. Well, load management is thing because you play in a two game season. And the pace of playing the NBA is so much faster than it's ever been. Yeah. And you can't have the same guys play every night. You need that.

You need to rotate. And it's, again, it's. as if we come back to this at the end of the day, it's about putting a product out in the field that's going to get people to come and pay the exorbitant amount of money it is to go see professional sports. And that's really it. Because if we went back to our GAA model that I want to have,

you can have guys throwing 95, 90, like normal. You don't need to have kids throwing low 90s. I mean, kids are, throwing mid-90s in high school at the elite programs. Right? There are kids, have you guys heard of this? Like, there are kids' parents

who will go to their doctor's and say, can I just get preemptive Tommy John on my son's arm so that he can throw harder? It's like, that's not. That's malpractice. Like, absolutely not. Do that. Yeah.

I'm going to teach him a curveball, so you'll have to. Like, there's stories out there. Like, I'm going to teach my son how to throw bad so that you have to give him Tommy John. Jesus Christ. I love that shit. And the fact is like, I don't know. I'm such a pro knuckleball guy.

Get these kids throwing knuckleballs. That'll make such a more interesting league in 10 years anyway. Bring back the knuckleball. Yeah. Bring back the knuckle ball. Have everybody fucking whiffing at this like 72 mile per hour pitch that dances. Yeah. Give more ephuses.

More stupid ephuses, more trick plays in football. More like, it's time we've figured out how to be. At your liberty play. Yeah, but like we figure out how to be bad to humans, like physically. It's time to try to get smarter and get sillier about this. Like, right? Like, legalize the fumble rusky. We need to be getting.

Bring it back. Like kids need to be like, all right, so you're going to learn to be a knuckleball and you're going to pitch till you're 50. Yeah. And there are going to be some nights where you get fucking shelled. It's over for you. You just go out. Knuckle isn't knuckling and it's over.

You're serving meatballs for two innings. But you're going to be fine and pitch till you're 50. Yeah. I have a knuckleball and an 88 mile per fastball. That's all I need. That's all I need. That's all I need. But I'm 48 and I'm about to re-sign a nine-year deal. I'm playing fine.

I've never been hurt once. Just to the side knuckleball, there's a guy in our softball league who could throw a softball knuckleball. Softball knuckleball feels crazy to me. And it is, I mean, it's what, coming at, what, 30 miles, 40? like what how much is what does a slow pitch come in at it's like nothing yeah and and you know I have like four seconds to watch this pitch and it's doing that I'm like oh fuck am I supposed to hit this shit it's still moving too fast for me um but like give me a 65 mile an hour knuckleball

and I want to watch people who are used to sending a you know 102 mile per hour four seamer into the next zip code I don't see these people fucking swinging out of their shoes and whiffing It is go make a knuckle muller in the road to the show and that will be the show. And just strike out Aaron Judge, a show Hey, Otani with a knuckleball. But the show does it, it doesn't have the,

like, the computer won't know how stupid they look. Yeah. You got to get a ducked out of, animated animator just for this. I need to see Aaron Judge be like, fuck, I'm the biggest idiot to ever have lived after swinging at something and missing by,

you know, like, yeah, his three and a half feet. The bat flies out of his hand and he loses one of his cleats. his legs tie up into a comedy pretzel you just have Pratt Falls bring Pratt Falls back to baseball

yeah like that's I mean like fucking that's what Bartolo would do when he saw any pitch right but you need to make people who are you know used to strutting around you know swing and dick with your $200 million yeah we need $200 million per year contract to do a 360 spin like it's backyard baseball Yeah, lose your helmet.

Yes. It lands back on your head backwards. Yeah. Yeah, you swing so hard, the helmet twists 180 around and you're staring into the back of the head. One eye poking out through the ear cover. But like that's a way to do like that and municipal ownership.

That's like sustainable sports. It feels like all this shit. And the EMF thing is like a weird excuse for like, why aren't they the team that I liked anymore? after they've moved, after they're playing in Santa Clara and practicing down, like, why aren't they like this? Why aren't they just winning all the time like they used to, which is, you know, kind of a lot, maybe is slightly more true for the 49ers than for other teams,

because obviously they did win all the time back in the day. But like, it's team, it's sports. It's how it works. Is it is the, is the, just in the side, Levi Stadium, isn't it under, uh, Is it under a glide slope for an airport or something like that? Yeah, you take off from San Jose straight over it. Yeah, yeah. So actually, that would probably have more of an effect.

Yeah, exactly. The lead from the, well, the, no, Afgas has lead. Abgas has lead. But Jet A doesn't. Jay doesn't. Jay doesn't. Yeah, oh, yeah. So I have Avgas over my fucking house because I'm under a pattern from an airport.

You're going to die there, Tom. Yeah. Yeah. But yeah, like that's what you'd be getting more, like, generally, genuinely that shit would have more of an effect than this substation. Good a fucking to go around eight times over the Levi Stadium because I hate the team and just want to fuck with them. Oh shit, got a toga again. Yeah. All right.

So we're an hour and a half of it. I think we're going to skip the listener messages. Nope. Don't. You want to do, you really want to do, no, I do not. Okay, because it's 10 o'clock here. I want to squeeze in an hour farm simulator before I go to sleep. Is it harvest or planting?

Are you reaping or sowing? So I started nothing. So I started off with like only 500,000, like the default start from scratch. And I bought, I work contract jobs to get like the basic farm steps. So I don't have any fields. I just have some sheep. So I'm trying to do contract work to buy my first field. So I've been just doing like other people's harvests

And now it's getting close to winter So I'll probably Skipping a little bit But I want to I want to Scotland So I'm going to roll play I'm going to do like barley oats Um Potatoes

I think my first is going to be barley Because that's the most The most grown grain in Scotland Then you need it for scotch which is delicious I agree Yeah So that's that's what that's start with I'm going to get I'm going to be like

Oh I have all old shit, like old Ford tractors and like just shitty old falling apart machinery. I'm going to try and like do everything with like the smallest. Like if they had a mod where it's like you have to dig this up by hand, I might fuck with that. But yeah. Nice. Well, have fun with that. Thanks.

What am I doing today? I don't know. The night is young for me. Yeah. Well, this isn't that nice. This is that nice beyond the West Coast. You're really a bunch of coastal elites here too. So.

Oh, yeah. So sorry. Sorry, listeners, if you call the interleft of voicemail or left the DM. We'll get you in next time because we do have a couple. We have Henry's Popcorn Report, which we'll have to listen to next time. I'm excited. Yeah. So we give shoutouts to our North Catholic tier patrons, Patrick, Sean, Cat, Mike, Charlie, Kyle, Wayne, Sam, Claire, Chucklebird.

No, the 700-level patrons that I saw anyway. Voice mail mail mail mail mailbag next episode, 267, 371,000. 7218, give us your name and pronouns. Tell us what you would do to Brock Perdue's penis. DM us and follow us. I'm at Tom Paine on Blue Sky. He's at WTYP.com. When are you going to fix that?

Never. Never. Where can they find you, Jay? I'm besquireglahousin.com on Blue Sky. That's probably the best place. I have a infrequently frequent pod with Liam called Talk Your Shit. which you can find on all great podcasting platforms, and I assume some shitty ones too.

Oh, yeah. And that's pretty much it. I technically still have a YouTube, but God knows if I'm ever going to find time to post on that again. Watch his Lego videos. I've got ancient Lego videos. You can hear me in high school. Oh, hi, everybody.

Hold on a second. Talk for a second. Talk for a second. Okay. See, hold on for a second to me usually means don't talk, but now it means talk. Oh, he wants to show you the... Oh, shit.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, he's getting a light kit for it. It's the Enterprise. That's awesome. I've got, I don't know if you can see it. I'm not going to go grab it, but I've got my spaceship over there. I've got the lunar module. I've got the Space Shuttle.

Oh, I have the Saturn 5, but it's downstairs. I've got the Saturday, but it's on the other side of the wall. And then every year I get the modular building. So I've got all of them, which is fun. But it's good shit. I'm trying not to destroy this as I put it back. Although, yeah, I was going to say, good luck getting that thing back on the stand.

I can't tell if his video froze or if he's just like very carefully. He's just very careful. Very careful. It's a little of both. But yeah. That's where you can find me. I was trying to separate the disc for you, the saucer. That's so cool. I'm thinking about getting the light kit for it.

That'd be cool. I've wanted to get some of the light kits. It's just tricky because like so many of them you have to squish all the wires between the bricks and that always feels weird. Yeah. Yeah. I've never done that, but I feel like the enterprise you can almost have to have it. Yeah, there's parts. You have to light up the engines.

You have to light up the shield generator down the bottom. The deflector dish? Deflector dish, that's right. Sorry, shield generates Star Wars. Yeah, I have the technical manual for the Enterprise Day if you need it. Oh, that's very helpful. Yeah, that helps explain how subspace works. It's magic.

Patreon.com slash 10,000 losses where you can get over, bonus episodes. Our most recent episode was with Jordan for bringing Young Money where we talked about. Remember the Titans. Remember the Titans. I had to remember is Remember the Titans. Good episode.

I guess I thought it was a good one. You can also get access to our Discord. And then listen to our other friends podcast. Well, there's your problem. Talk your shit. Bring a Ming Money. Trash Future. Beyond the Breakers.

Radio free tote bag. No guys. The mayors. Kill James Bond. Health away to dad. Tipping pitches, sicko, self-worst, championship, and bust. and batting around.

Oh, and fucking be gay solve crimes. B gay solve crimes. I was going to say. There's a new one. It's a new one. There's so many podcasts in our podcasting friend, Orbit.

Yeah. Everyone's got a podcast now. That's true. It's true, but some people are good at it. Not me. All right. Well, thanks so much for being OJ. I've been one to have you on for a while.

This is a good one. couple, yeah, a couple false starts where I've reached out and we just couldn't, couldn't make it work. But yeah, glad you had your own. Glad to have your scientific mind and go give those fins what for? I'll let you know how it goes. Yeah. They have their work cut out for them. That's for sure.

We could take some more Corelli away if they, uh. And then, you know, once they get all that shit done, maybe I can go and ask them to make the electric substations. that are in City of Skylines to fuck up your sports team. Yeah. Yes. Ooh, that's a good mod. Some negative health effects.

That's a great mod. Let's do it. That'd be fun. The fucking conspiracy, like, pack that just, like, turns on every conspiracy theory. They're all true. The chem trails. Chemtrails are true. You can build your mind control center to make everybody happy.

The cell phone tower gives you cancer. Yeah, the cell towers and radio towers give you, like, big health, health losses. The substation gives you some as well. love it. I love it.
