But also, I've said this rant a couple times, but now with a guest here, I'm going to do it even more and crowd the guest out of the spotlight. I love when people, especially Lidditz or Lancaster, are like, oh, they're so nice.
This and that.
They're so cute.
It's like six fucking square blocks of those're so nice. Like, this and that. They're so cute. It's like, six fucking square
blocks of those towns are nice.
Shut the fuck up.
They have been trying to rehabilitate York since
the 80s. It has not worked so
good.
Oh, my God. Yeah.
No thanks.
I'm a little upset. I clicked on Twitter
and I just see a high school is
trending. I don't like that. I clicked on Twitter and I just see a high school is trending.
I don't like that.
Someone's shooting people.
Fuck.
It's in Colorado. Not a good sign.
Fuck.
Fuck this stupid country. Yep.
And this is three relative
very pro-gun
leftists actually saying that.
So, I'm not clicking on this.
I don't want to ruin.
Well, speaking of gun violence at Temple, I had a colleague saying that they didn't want to go down to Temple to take a test for continuing education thing because of the cop that got shot there.
And it's like what does it
have to do with you you're are you gonna try and stop i have okay i have a rant about this real
quick i grew up um i grew up about 20 minutes it was an unfounded threat to boulder high school
nobody shot it up actually okay that's good yeah i clicked the link. Okay. Good. Thank you. I grew up 20 minutes south of southeast D.C.
On 210.
You can go look up the actual name of that highway in the town I'm from.
It's – I don't know why they haven't renamed it.
Oh, I know where you're from.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
I know the mountain.
Yeah.
Yep, yep, yep, yep.
Yep.
So I –
Okay.
Yeah. What do you mean they haven't renamed it? It's a slur. It's a sl yeah. Okay. I know the mountain. Yeah, yep, yep, yep, yep. Yep. So I – Okay. Yeah.
What do you mean they haven't renamed it?
It's a slur.
It's a slur.
There's a naval base there.
There's a naval base named after it there.
Okay.
Yeah, so –
I'm doing this.
Southern Maryland naval bases.
The DOD base in specific.
It's not Andrews Air Force force base that's in the same area
um but i grew up 20 minutes south of southeast dc and regularly went to went to battle of the
bands and punk shows in southeast was where you went to shows and i every time someone came up to me and said oh my gosh how
do you go to southeast dc it's so dangerous it's so bad and a crime rate statistic yeah but then i
always have to say fuck you and i feel the same way about when people say anything about philadelphia
like when i've in the past gone and like door knocked in west philly
like oh don't you feel unsafe why the fuck would you i'm like why would you feel unsafe i'm like
i'm knocking on doors and most times it is like it is like elderly people who have lived and owned
these houses in west philly for like you know generations at this point unless they've been bought out by like a larger landlord
and like it's it's like it's just like i think the the thing um tom i said to you of like people
won't want to build a train station in quaker town because they're afraid people of philly
are going to come in and steal all their stuff yeah so you're still a tv we're gonna oh we're
gonna ted nugent commemorative plates.
Yeah, you can steal your Ted Nugent commemorative plates
and please, for the love of God,
this is actionable,
but if someone could steal the Confederate flag
off the front porch of that one asshole
that always sells cars outside of Quaker Town,
the specific things that we're gonna steal.
Yeah.
I've thought about that, too, but neither of us,
nor would any of our listeners do that.
No, it's not.
Oh, oh.
So I looked at the name.
Is it something related to the team that used the name of the commanders?
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Gotcha.
Gotcha.
Specifically,
it's been noted out
there is
Redrum Motorcycle Club.
It's really actually awesome.
It's
international now, so it's First Nations
Motorcycle Club.
They're all accepting. They're really actually a good
organization. It kind of breaks the
trend of motorcycle clubs. Their president actually called out why that town was named that. And it was because they used to place the heads of Native people on pikes outside of the town to ward off other native populations.
Beautiful.
Great, great, amazing history of settler colonialism and the atrocities of it, of my hometown,
which they still don't rename.
Hmm.
So people are trying to change the name to Piscataway.
They should.
Yeah, the name of the tribe that's there.
Which, I think,
if we're arguing about proper pronunciations of native words, that's one of them I've heard
pronounced like eight different ways.
So, Piscataway,
Piscataway,
and then like six other ways, basically.
It's been pronounced over the years.
The cat just broke into my room.
Yeah.
I'm sure there's a right way
to say it.
Isn't there a Piscataway, New Jersey? Is that why I'm saying it that way?
Yeah, that's why I'm saying it that way.
I think the...
They were Chesapeake natives
down there. That's different,
I think. Let's go back to linguistics
chat where we talk about the different Native American language families.
Yes, please.
My actual hometown that I'm from,
not that town, is
Chickamaxon, and it's right next
to Nanjemoy. So as soon as
you exit area, you get all natively named
towns and areas
of the different
tribes and things that are in the area.
Chesapeake Watershed, very rich
in tribal tradition.
And a lot of tribes.
Let's see. Piscataway
or Piscatawa.
They speak in
Algonquin language, which is related to
Lenape. That's why it kind of sounds... That's why there probably
is something similar up here.
The land
acknowledgment. The first Philadelphia Sports
podcast to do a land acknowledgment. We are Philadelphia Sports Podcast to do a land acknowledgment
that we are recording on stolen Lenape land.
Where you are, my – because William Penn did –
William Penn only.
Yes, not his fuck-ass kids.
Treated fairly.
His kids sucked ass.
I'm on the land that it's – part of the land purchase that fucking ripped off,
that his kids ripped off the Lenape with.
But Liam, where Liam is, was bought fair and square by William Penn.
Asterisk.
I don't know if it was truly fair and square, but at least William Penn tried.
Because he did think there was some human.
History is complex.
The only correct answer to
if you got a time machine what would you do
and that is fist fight all the founding
fathers into oblivion except for like
three
emergency work call
can you stop it for a second
alright
we're back after
Liam was ordering the space laser around
I was
it's your hour of control so you really I really wanted to make it count after Liam was ordering the space laser around. I was.
It's your hour of control, so you really wanted to take advantage of that. I really wanted to make it count. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So one thing, too, before we start the intro,
is just support the Temple Grad Student Union. Fuck Temple.
Oh, yeah.
All right.
So hello, welcome to another episode of 10,000 Losses,
the only Philadelphia sports podcast in existence.
I'm your host, Tom Payne. My pronouns are he, him, and with me is my co-host, yay, Liam.
Liam Anderson. My pronouns are he, him.
And we have a guest. You might have heard the voice on this podcast before, but we have a guest.
Introduce yourself, guest.
My name is guest. My legal name is uh uh uh my legal name uh well my name
is patrick patrick mcclure also he him do you want me to believe you're lame no not really just
it's fine uh we can just prove that that tom is uh outranked by irishmen for another episode
yeah yeah yeah irish privilege. I only have Polish
and Scottish privilege.
I don't really think either of those are privileges, actually.
I have English privilege.
Cornish privilege?
There goes that voice.
I don't know if I've ever mentioned this before.
I think I've mentioned it to you, Tom, but
my great-granddad was also a German-Jewish immigrant as well.
A member of the Chosen People.
Yeah.
At least some connection through bloodlines.
We really feel fucking chosen, I'll tell you that.
I mean, I do.
If you go back like 20 generations,
there is like a fucking rabbi linked into it,
but it's like
illegitimate.
Attaboy.
That's the same family line that fucked over
the Lenape for the
Iroquois. Double attaboy.
Yeah. I think it's just nothing, dickhead.
Specifically, the Susquehannocks.
The dude hated Conrad Weiser. He hated
the Lenape.
Conrad Weiser. There's a Conrad Weiser high school near where I grew up.
Yeah.
That's my seven times.
Great.
Uh,
grand uncle.
Wow.
Fuck you.
Great.
Great.
Uncle.
Yeah.
Um,
but I'm now technically,
I'm technically eligible for,
uh,
sons of the revolution.
And then,
uh,
what's the continuation?
Like there's,
well,
the one I do think is kind of cool is like,
it's the continuation of the Grand Order Republic.
It's the sons of Union Civil War veterans or something like that.
That's cool.
And they're a little more – they've apparently started to become a little more radical these days, backing off from the peace and handshaking bullshit.
Good.
My only familiar claim is we're descendants of William Henry Harrison, the best president
because he died 31 days into office.
Yeah, going to keep you out of the cold.
No giving speeches.
All right.
Yeah.
In the middle of winter.
All right.
So, Patrick, we have you on for, well, multiple reasons.
One, because we like you.
But two, you did a little research into the DraftFox.
Yeah.
Yeah,
so.
Oh,
man.
Yeah,
so,
you know,
DraftFox,
so if you're looking
for a great,
a great app
in order to use
rollover funds
from your Starbucks
purchases
to create a,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
to,
I know we already
talked about it,
but just hearing it
like that.
It gets,
it gets better.
I wish it didn't.
Should we say the real name?
No.
No free advertising.
No free advertising.
It's literally like two letters off of DraftBucks.
Yeah.
The first six letters are the same.
We'll call them DraftBucks.
DraftBucks. same so we'll call them draft bucks draft bucks i as i explained it i have to find the story because
it's it's it's freaking uh it's applicable um so uh draft bucks uh yeah it's a rollover account
to put your uh rollover affinities from your starbucks purchases off of your off of your
bank accounts um which probably actually steals,
for better or worse,
you're using a password for all your bank accounts
and screen scrapes your websites
to bring in all your transactions
to determine a rollover account
to debit straight from your bank account
onto a prepaid debit card
that you can then use to gamble with on sports betting.
Why?
Can you only use it to gamble?
Please tell me yes.
You can make purchases with it.
It's a debit card.
This is a prepaid debit card.
But market it to where it's people with gambling addiction.
The story is that the founder on Saturday, July 26, 2019, same day UFC 239 took place.
The main event was Jon Jones versus Thiago Santos for the light heavyweight championship.
He was at a bar and came up to someone and said, what if the spare change from your purchases could be collected for your husband?
He said to a woman, to place bets with?
She thought about it for a few seconds.
Something could happen.
That would be fine.
I'm like, oh, so you want to enable your husband, who's a sports gambler, to have a slush fund to use for whatever purpose is possible.
Which you kind of appreciate the audacity of.
Hey, do you know the plot of Office Space?
Alright, what if we did that
but for gambling?
If I wasn't...
If I had no morals
about the industry,
I would just create an app
called Slush Fund.
It would just do that.
Slush Fund, at least we're honest yeah exactly so what's the
fucking problem um i it is such a question now the only thing is um that unfortunately your
prepaid debit card is discover card so good luck using it in most places. Hey, I have a Discover card. It works fine.
Good luck using that in fucking France.
That's why Corrine has an Amex.
Hey,
yeah.
What does that mean?
Go on.
Go on.
I'm not going to say it.
I have nothing negative to say. I'm not negative to say about Discover or Amex.
I'm not going to say anything bad about Amex.
I have no problem with them.
Especially not...
The only two...
No, the only two...
Cut that.
Cut that.
Oh, I forgot.
I'm not going to pitch an ad for Discover or Amex right now.
I am just going to say that both do have prepaid credit cards,
but only one has one that
you can use as a slush fund through an app.
I feel like that's a point
in their favor.
I'm not saying anything negative.
The money generated for the
podcast is going into a
mortgage fund. Oh, I thought you were going to say
a slush fund. But I do like
to call it the big podcast slush fund but i i do like to call it the big
the big podcast slush fund yes and we've had we've had like emergency expenses and shit like that
and kurt will be like could we could we take podcast money and i'm like what the fuck do you
think it's there for yeah yeah exactly that's that's i mean so uh for financial advice this
is legal financial advice that Patrick is giving right now.
Yeah, that's true.
Start a podcast as a second income stream.
Yeah.
Especially one that's like top 10 on Patreon or whatever.
Thank you.
There's other suggestions as well, where if you have a boomer parent that you can't stand with a hefty life insurance fund, you should look up common home accidents.
Jesus.
All right.
This is 543, 640, 745.
I can say that.
My dad's dead.
Well, it's a statute of limitations.
He died of cancer.
The autopsy came back clean.
If only that radon detector hadn't malfunctioned.
There's radon detectors in Southern Maryland?
What?
Me get thyroid cancer and a thyroid belt.
Who would have thought that?
All right.
I don't know.
So is there anything else on Giraffe Fox that we should know?
Oh, no.
Giraffe Fox is very generally.
Oh, the only thing I had is, generally speaking,
if you have a gambling website,
you have to legally include the hotline to the gambler's.
1-800-GAMBLER?
1-800-GAMBLER's hotline.
And it's nowhere to be found on the website.
Nice.
Because legally, it's just a prepaid debit card.
The soft bank of the gambling world. Yeah, which's just a prepaid debit card. The SoftBank of the gambling world.
Yeah, which is just SoftBank.
I actually wanted to see what their funding was.
I wouldn't be surprised if this is a SoftBank-funded project.
Of course not.
Yeah, it is.
No, I don't even have to look at it.
It is.
And then the SoftBank Fukuyama Hawks, the baseball team in Japan.
Yes, yes.
I know that your secret dream is to be on Trash Future,
so you should forward this over to them.
Oh, Riley bitches about open banking and everything about it,
which is what this is.
It's just sharing of financial information between banks and stuff like that
all the time.
And this is a subject I know way too much about. sharing of financial information between banks and stuff like that all the time and uh i and i
this is a subject i know way too much about and uh the sad thing is is i think he's the only one
that has actually done deep research into it but it's stupidly boring and massively corrupt but
it's just stupidly boring because it's things like this i'm going to do rollover starbucks
purchases into a slush fund yeah and that's that's basically how
all these companies kind of make money yeah but that's your that's your tech talk for the day
yeah yeah yeah it's just some find some new weird niche to squeeze money out of
you gotta kind of appreciate it that honestly just because like i don't know man i i had a
i remember i had one of the first, like, branchless banks.
It was called – I don't even remember what it was called.
They shut down.
And it was so totally useless.
And they got acquired by U.S. Bank, Bank Corp,
or whatever the fuck they're called these days.
Was it the spinoff or the marketed thing of the Bank of the Internet?
Yeah.
That was the original one.
I forgot what their username is.
Yeah, they got acquired by U.S. Bank and basically ripped apart for tech resources.
Like parts, yeah.
Yeah.
Now everything is basically branchless.
And yeah, that's a whole other rant for another day, I feel.
I wonder how Honey Valley Bank is doing right now
since the crypto crash. I feel. I wonder how Huntington Valley Bank is doing right now since the crypto crash.
I don't want to know.
I haven't seen too many of their ads lately.
I wonder why.
Go see how the jet ski dealerships
are doing down the road.
Yeah.
Definitely.
They're too busy
running for school board.
Also, we're recording a bonus tonight on MMA,
the bonus that was promised.
So I'll be editing that soon.
I'm taking off Friday for Kerbal Space Program 2 release.
I'm so proud of you.
Yeah, I got personal days.
You can't tell me what I could use it for.
So,
fuck you.
Out of line, dude.
We're actually out of voicemails.
Call in 267-371-7218. Give us your name and pronouns.
Patreon.com slash
10,000 losses. If you want to listen to the bonus,
that'll be coming out soon.
Plus the pass bonus.
All right.
So,
some interesting stuff in this you know in
the sports world right now it's it's you know spring training starting we just had the all-star
break with the nba there's no nfl so things are a little slower than than usual but uh in slow
time sometimes ridiculous shit happens and so what i think is funny right now is that in the major
league baseball there's starting to be uh more and more talk from the owner's side of starting a
salary cap and this is this is they they tried to get one in the last time they had the cba and
the players were like fuck this shit so they didn't get included. So basically, the MLB ownership is mad about guys like the Phillies owner,
John Milton, the Padres owner, Peter Seedlers, and then Steve Cohen,
the Mets, who is literally just, I will spend all the money.
They're spending a shitload of money.
That's why the NL East is really fucking strong. And they spending a shitload of money. That's why the NLE is really fucking strong.
And they're upset that they look bad.
Too fucking bad, dude.
The Dolans and the Reinstorfs of the world
are upset.
And they're mad.
So that's why the salary cap talks about,
because they want to have a salary cap.
They should be talking about fucking salary floor.
So all these teams are
cashing in. So Steve Cohen's
response is, well, they should enjoy the money that they
get from revenue
sharing from me.
They should be grateful for that. That's basically
his answer.
And then John Middleton said,
and I really like this.
I'm sure this is like workshop with whoever does PR or whatever,
but I thought this was a good response.
They asked John Middleton about it, and he said,
they're talking about, like, is there any concerns about how much money you're spending?
He said, well, this is a quote from John Middleton.
How much money did the 27 Yankees make or the 29 A's or the 75, 76 Big Red Machine,
Middleton said. Does anyone
know? Does anybody care? Nobody knows or
cares whether any of them made money or not.
And nobody cares whether I make money or not.
If my legacy is that I didn't lose money
owning a baseball team on an annual operating basis,
that's a pretty sad legacy. It's about
putting trophies in the cases.
Yeah, that's correct.
As far as an owner saying,
that's exactly what you should say.
And that should be the motto.
Like, if you're going to be a billionaire and you're going to buy a sports team, the fuck is it for?
Is it to make money?
You already have a billion dollars or plus.
Like, fuck it.
Get some rings, man.
Fucking do it.
At least it makes us happy.
It's, you know, uh bread and roses for us right
well not bread and roses uh yeah i wish we had that bread and circuses for us the circus part
we don't get bread anymore no no bread just circuses just circuses and you have to pay for
the circus yes you do uh i did get free uh mlb tv though, for buying season tickets this year.
That was cool.
Oh, you want to share that with the class?
Yeah, we can share that with the class.
I said that I got season tickets.
Or do you mean share my MLB TV login?
Yes, that's what I mean.
Yeah.
But just keep in mind, they did this tied to my MLB ballpark app.
So don't buy tickets on my dime, all right?
Yeah, it's fine. I don't care about that.
I'm going to do it anyway.
I'll buy one set of
Pirates tickets and pay you back $20
for what it costs to go to a Pirates game
right now. That's box seats, too.
$20 for box seats, yeah.
Damn, it's like $20, man.
Right behind home plate there.
Jesus, big spender.
I think behind both home plate
it's under $100
at this point
for a PNC park
I wouldn't be shocked
I wouldn't be shocked
um
yeah
listen up Nutley
spend some freaking money
maybe people will pay money
for tickets
oh my god
yeah
so fucking embarrassing
I
I mean we talked about this
a bit last week
with the tip of bitches
guys
just spend the fucking money.
Who gives a shit?
You're going to make it back.
You're going to make it back anyway.
Yeah.
It's fucking weirdos.
Or sell the team.
Sell the team.
There's no point.
I mean, billionaires shouldn't exist, but if we're fucking stuck with them, I mean, at least entertain us.
Give us our circuses.
I want Guy hit ball hard.
Yeah, exactly. And not make catch. I want Guy hit ball hard. Yeah, exactly.
And not make catch.
I want Guy throw ball fast.
Here we are now.
Entertain us.
Yeah, exactly.
Exactly.
So I just thought that was cool.
But the MLB owner's like, oh, we have to, they formed an economic reform committee.
Fuck off.
Like, oh, well, we economic reform committee. Fuck off.
Like, oh, well, we got to figure out this parity problem.
The parity is that guys who have money
aren't spending it for some reason.
That's the problem.
It seems like a you problem.
Literally, all the players would have to do is
like, all right, we're going to start our own league.
And MLB would be done.
They have to understand that at this point.
Now I can only think of a movie
that's a league of their own,
but it's all just 3% are baseball players.
Most terrifying option of that.
We got the Boca Raton blue lines.
This is the JT Real Muto baseball team. option of that. We got the Boca Raton blue lines. Yeah.
This is the JT
Real Muto baseball team.
And the team is coached by
Roseanne Barr. Yeah.
We got the Brooks Raley
What's the town with the kids that got killed?
Most recently.
Uvalde? Yeah.
The Brooks Raley Uvalde
gun store. Cowards. Fighting cowards. Yeah, the Brooks-Raley-Uvalde gun store.
Cowards.
Fighting cowards.
Yeah, the fighting cowards.
All right.
So, basketball.
Who knew that white boys could jump?
Hey, he's a sixer.
Matt McClung, baby.
He's technically a sixer.
He's technically a sixer.
Yes, I love that. That's a great... Matt McClung, I'm technically a Sixer. He's technically a Sixer. Yes, I love that.
That's a great – Matt McClung.
I'm technically a 76er.
I mean, he's what, two-way contract?
But he had like a 540 dunk in the dunk contest.
The dunk contest is –
720.
It was 720.
That's pretty sick.
It was a pretty sick dunk.
Pretty traditional as far as the dunk contest goes.
But he had a bunch of sick ones too.
And he's like 6'2".
He's not like big.
I thought he was shorter than that.
That's what he's listed as.
So it's a lie.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, Allen Iverson is my height.
I think when he was at Georgetown and he entered, he was listed at six foot.
I mean, he could have grown two inches over college but you like he's he's actually interesting one thing
i i loved it because i want the return to like the vince carter era slam dunk contest yeah it's fun
it keep people engaged with the fun side of the NBA and out of like the weird statistical money ball shit that everybody does right now.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Um,
it,
but I like,
I think about,
I was like,
if you had an opportunity,
even if you didn't want to bring your all stars out,
you had guys like Matt McClung,
guys that were playing in like the,
like the lower leagues come up who were just like great dunkers,
stupid athletes. You can come up and do this just as like an exposure
or something to do for the fans.
Like that's also like something that might also be pretty cool as well.
They have the Rising Stars game, but that's –
I don't know if G League players are eligible for that.
I'm not sure. I don't know if G League players are eligible for that. Hmm.
I'm not sure.
And that gets into – I hate Mark Cuban.
I hate fucking Mark Cuban.
Mark Cuban made the stupidest fucking comment I've heard in a long time in basketball
when they were talking about sending NBA players to the Olympics.
And he said, why would I let about sending NBA players to the Olympics.
And he said,
why would I let my players go play in the Olympics?
Those are my assets of my franchise.
Eat shit,
dude.
My assets.
Yeah.
I show you my asset.
And, and,
and like,
it kind of especially pisses me off because Mark Cuban is one of those
billionaires that tries to get like,
Oh yeah.
Whitewashed by liberal media.
One of the good ones.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And like,
then he goes out and says shit like that.
Like,
Oh no,
these players are my assets for my franchise and I don't want them to go
get injured playing for the Olympics.
Like,
uh,
Hey man,
like,
fuck you.
They're not your assets.
One.
And like the Olympics are pretty cool for any athlete to go and do and um and uh like
i don't remember like who from the mavericks would have been on the olympic team in the last
couple years i guess he doesn't want to see luka dodgich kick the shit out of us we could we could
kairi irving i mean he's i I guess, based on... He's Australian, technically.
He's not eligible to play for
Israel because he says he's Jewish.
Thank you.
Alright.
That's the one
black Israelite joke that we're allowed for.
We have one.
Alright. I mean, they are good joke that we're allowed for. Yeah. We have one. All right.
Um,
I mean,
they're,
they are good at, at slinging shit though.
Um,
but,
uh,
the whole,
the whole,
um,
all-star game thing in,
in Utah.
Uh,
I mean,
so,
so,
so fucking why?
Like,
yeah.
Yeah.
So is it,
there's nothing to do who was complaining about that?
Was that, uh, he said, there's fucking nothing to do in this town?
Was it?
Jordan from.
Was it Michael Jordan?
No.
Well, no.
Oh, no.
I thought that Jordan from Bring Him On Money podcast was talking about it a lot.
There was an NBA player accommodator said there's nothing to fucking do in Salt Lake
City.
Yeah.
Was it Donovan Mitchell, maybe?
No.
May have been.
Charles Barkley.
That's who it was.
Oh.
Yes.
These people going to heaven ain't nothing to do in this boring-ass city.
And then Shaq said, I never ate so much.
No, I never ate so much room service in my life.
All right.
Of course.
A lot of room service.
Oh, yeah.
I love the inside the NBA guys.
Yeah.
Controversial opinion there.
Really, really.
Yeah.
Stepping out there on a limb.
I honestly can't stand them.
Really?
Yeah.
I find they do sort of, they really lean into the like, I'm the old guard and I know better
than you shit.
Yeah.
In a way that I find very, like, not especially helpful to the movement of the game.
There, I found that there's only, like, two, not even basketball.
I don't, I haven't liked the inclusion of, like, some of the former athletes they brought in for basketball announcing.
It's why it's been hard to like
watch uh espn um but like on the football side though i feel like shannon sharp has actually
been the opposite of that and actually good for the sport he's a good announcer um and then and
then when they bring michael strahan in from being basically Ryan Seacrest.
Good for a hitman, honestly.
Yeah.
Those two guys just have a different opinion of sports in general as well.
And Charles Barkley is just an odd character end-to-end.
But Shaq is very much at the point of like
even towards the end of his career when he was just a defensive specialist he just leaned into
being like i'm the celebrity and the old guard more than actually being an athlete and it kind
of echoes it so he gets and he annoys me time and time again charles barclay is just abrasive
towards everything in general yeah and i i appreciate anyone who's just and time again charles barkley is just abrasive towards everything in general yeah
and i i appreciate anyone who's just like i like charles barkley i feel like he's he's openly
antagonistic and shack kind of sort of pretends to take the high road in a lot of cases and barkley's
just like grabbing his leg and pulling him down well barkley is is very much like i'm a radical
centrist kind of guy.
He loves to say things that are on the extremes of – He's a consensus builder.
Yeah.
But Kenny Smith will just fucking call him out on it.
So he'll say your full shit.
Not straight up, but he'll get mad at them.
But that's sort of the dynamic, I guess, right?
And Barkley's always been like that.
He's always said controversial shit, even when he was a player.
My only exception to all of this is that anytime someone shuts down Skip Bayless in any argument.
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
Skip, dude, I fucking hate the guy.
I have come to really like Stephen A. Smith.
I think I suffer from some sort of Stockholm Syndrome.
Oh, he's a character.
I like the character he plays.
And, like, Stephen A. Smith is just, like,
like, spittle flying.
Like, what the fuck is going on?
Like, I don't think Stephen A.
is really aware of his temporal existence on Earth.
Yeah.
Well, Stephen A, the meme of him
coming out to get your numbers up.
Gotta get your numbers up.
As he's walking out in the field
shaking.
He's coming out. He's marching out
like Vince McMahon in that meme.
I think it's
hilarious. He's doing a character.
It's a bit. It's like Howard Eskin.
It's a fucking bit.
Except Stephen A. Smith is funny.
Yo, here's the thing, right, is that I am going to dunk Spike Eskin and Howard Eskin into a toilet.
Well, Spike might help you.
Yeah, that's true.
So you get Howard first.
That's a fucked up family.
Yeah.
Spike Eskin,
you can skateboard his way
into the toilet.
How about that?
I like to have fun here.
He likes to skateboard.
I used to listen to that podcast.
I am going to admit
this is the first time
I've actually...
I have an awareness of Spike Eskin's
voice.
This is the first time I've googled him
and seen what he looks like.
What the...
I mean, I don't want to make fun of how someone looks, but what the
fuck?
I appreciate, I don't want to make fun of how someone looks.
Immediately proceeds to make
fun of how someone looks.
Like... I feel the same way about people
where like you get like someone like jordan peterson where they're so fucking beyond the
pale and vile you're just like all right like at some point like i'm i'm gonna resort to the
low road right like i'm usually you can usually find me on the low road. Usually spitting skull at cops, but you know.
Look, I wrestled.
When they go low, I bury their head into the mat.
I'll just say this.
Hold on one second.
I'll just say this about Spike Eskin.
He's got a fucking salmon and edgemont ass face.
He's got a fucking Port Richmond ass face.
That's all.
He does.
Yeah, he does.
He looks like, you know, yeah, he looks like that.
I was going to say, I'm not sure if the Eskin family is Jewish or not.
Yeah, they are.
So, go on.
No, go a little louder.
Tom, please. Don't make me do the voice. Do the voice. So go on. No, go a little louder. Tom, please.
Don't make me do the voice.
Do the voice.
Do the voice.
What's the matter?
Do the voice.
Do the voice.
Do not do the fucking voice.
I will drive up to the location redacted.
And I will tattle to your wife
and be like,
you know what this man is doing?
What voice did he do this time?
Spike Askin,
he just seems like every guy
I ran into in college that tried to get me linked up
for a multi-level marketing scheme.
Bro, please
listen to my podcast, bro. It's so good,
bro. Although, to be fair, that's how I feel
sometimes.
He's just got like that, he's got like the forehead vein that's a
little too prominent like that oh i'm sorry i get mean i could be really mean like my thoughts is
it looks like a failed tony hawk clone yes that's great yeah that's good yeah he does look like a
tony hawk clone yeah oh i do have something funny to to say i i uh so karen got a tattoo
the other day um of a of a heart lollipop which is actually pretty cool uh and at the same tattoo
shop i was in last week and she was talking to the owner and he was like yeah like i listened
to his podcast and my gut reaction because Corinne will tell people,
oh, my fiance has a really successful podcast.
It doesn't name exact numbers, but it's like paying for a house.
And they're like, oh, I'd love to listen to it.
What's it about?
And to the point where I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
And they're like, what?
Are you embarrassed about it?
I'm like like i'm not
embarrassed but like you are my fiance's boss and if you know that i am making jokes about
firefighting with cum you look at a little differently right like at some point you may
think what sort of lapse in judgment occurred here why is this man still talking about cum it's been
four and a half minutes surely we've exhausted the topic oh no no no you shoot wads on that
podcast i do shoot wads i they they call me the firefighter they call me the volunteer firefighter
i don't get i don't get paid for
this i do this out of the kindness of my heart i actually want to i i almost said circle back
then i would have had to convince sepico uh i do want to kind of come back to what we were
talking about i had some thoughts about major league owners and just this sort of cheapskate
bullshit nonsense yeah we're like
you're like we've seen the average valuation for teams like easily crack a billion multi-billion
you're not like like and with with tv deals you can't lose money it's irrelevant no they don't
like i and i understand i would understand i would be sympathetic if like the A's were approaching like the luxury tax threshold.
Right.
Right.
Every year.
And they're just like, hey, we just can't compete.
But like that, that's too fucking bad, dude.
Because you're A, you're trying to lose on purpose.
So I feel like the argument's just not made in good faith, which is what you said.
But also like, yeah, man.
So democratize it.
Like, shut the fuck up. Like you're, you're all so wealthy. It's inconceivable to us. And you're bitching about what are comparatively pennies.
Right. Yeah. and i said it and i'll say before you have much more in common with lebron james than you do with fucking john middleton or whoever yeah uh but you're talking about this level of wealth that's
beyond sort of human understanding and when you get to the point where it's just like owners being
like oh but i can't like buy my ninth yacht or whatever the fuck like especially with a guy like
mark cuban being like we've talked about you know on the process episode, the asset thing. It's just like these are guys.
These are just dudes who happen to be really good at basketball.
But like some guy making over his maybe five-year NBA career like six or seven million.
Like, yeah, that's really nice.
But like that's a lot of money off the top to taxes, to agents, to friends who come out of the woodwork this and that and i just don't
want to fucking hear it from mark cuban who just got lucky and sold whatever radio fucking.com in
the in the bubble yeah it's like dude you could you could lose a billion overnight you'd be
fucking fine right shut up right yeah no 100 i don't think it's it it all comes back down to
like what is it what is the fear of the rich man losing all his wealth it's... It all comes back down to what is the fear of
the rich man losing all his wealth? It's like becoming
a worker again. Yeah. The fear of being
proletarianized. Yeah.
And think about
temporarily embarrassed millionaires.
Yeah. That's what people sing up for them.
I think it's also
like, how many
professional athletes
who enter the league go broke
within two or three years of exiting their pro career?
Yeah, and there's multiple hockey players that have had to file for bankruptcy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, 100%.
It's like all these players are, even if it's not friends out of the woodwork
and managers, well, managers I'll put in this next category, but they are constantly being hounded by people to like, invest in this, spend your wealth in this, buy this, do this, it's basically like they need the – if they had the They Live glasses on, they'd freaking lose their mind.
They'd claw their eyes out because it's just the desire for people to get their money as young men, as young athletes who enter it, have all this money with like –
I don't – it sounds stupidly capitalist, but like, no, they don't have any financial planning information or financial planning knowledge.
Right.
When Ben Simmons was still in the Sixers,
we talked about this a couple times.
We said, like, you're a kid.
You get in the NBA.
I mean, obviously, you're a natural talent, whatever like that,
and you get that first million dollar,
and you see that money in your bank account,
and most people won't ever experience that kind of money and so most of
these guys it doesn't have to be nba it could be any league don't know what the fuck like to do
with that money right oh and there's a million fucking like like bottom feeders trying to or
not bottom feeders not the right word but like leeches opportunists yeah opportunists who see
that and try and try and get them like like patrick like you said get them to invest or ask you for money or some dumb shit
no 100 i think even that's like at the lowest level not an athlete general person it's like
i think about when i got my first actual job that paid me enough money that paid like I had extra income.
Tell us your exact salary,
Patrick. I want it down
to the dollar.
Before or after taxes. I also have
two children.
Once again, it sounds like a you
problem.
Only after Liam shares his mind's public information.
Oh, that sucks.
I mean, literally, I'm a public employee.
I'm going to look that up and laugh at you.
Like I said, I'll make six figures my last three years.
I don't know why, but that honestly makes me really happy.
You'll be like, yeah, I did it.
Oh, I have to i
finally i made i made 101 yo yeah i'm over the line baby i'm over the line yeah well that was
i i'll say there was some really bad sra discourse back in that patrick is familiar with when we
were still in it and guys would be people would be like well if you make over a hundred thousand
dollars you can't be a worker it's like, well, if you make over $100,000,
you can't be a worker.
It's like,
the fuck you talking about?
So teachers aren't workers towards the end of their career?
Like, come on.
It's your relation
to the means of production.
This is what happens
when you let anarchists in.
They don't have any framework.
I, okay.
Here's the fucking thing.
Here's the fucking thing.
All right, that last part
was just a dig.
You don't have to get upset
about that part.
No, it's fine. That's what happens when you let liberals in. That's the problem. Why don't you was just a dig you don't have to get upset about that part no it's fine
that's what happens
when you let liberals in
that's the problem
why don't you get the shit
out of my butt
like
I mean
I
that's usually what we do
I mean
that's
we will turn off the webcam
and get to it
we'll just go to town
yeah
no that's what happens
when you let liberals in
that's the problem
that's not wrong
Patrick's drinking out of a liberal tears mug right now.
I am actually drinking out of a glass liberal tears mug
that my sister got me for my birthday off of eBay.
So she didn't actually contribute to the Ben Shapiro industrial complex.
She actively stole from it.
So two wins on here.
I'll say the best, like,
but going back to the point as to not expose my salary,
I'll just say that I donate to a lot of organizations
that I'm no longer actively a part of
and just forget about the payment on a regular basis.
Oh, I do that.
Thank you.
The Philadelphia DSA thanks you for that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hey, Philadelphia DSA,
if you could figure out one thing figure out your
enrollments that people in bucks county can actually get on the slack channel um oh i forgot
to join that yeah i gotta do that um but like but it's it's like once you get if it's not even young
but like once you hit that certain thing the first thought that comes to your mind is like what is the shit i always wanted that i couldn't get right yeah oh yeah oh yeah like myself like i'm i'm i'm i am
basically a frugal person as i'm sitting here in like a three-year-old carhartt yeah all right
name what are you oh you like workers name three of your local trade unions in that carhartt
i love trade unions ibew uh iron workers
and uh and the teachers union i don't know i guess he's cool all right that checks out i was
just gatekeeping the car heart that's all yeah um but like yeah like the first thing like when i got
my first a little bit of inkling of money i spent way too much money on tattoos that no one can see. Because,
of course, because I'm a realist and I don't
get sleeve tattoos or tattoos
on my forearms. I think you should get sleeve tattoos
and, yeah, I think that's what you should do.
I have these really cool Germanic
symbols that you could use. Yeah, Old
Norse runes that he'll never be employed
again and he'll have to come live with us. I know
some people who listen to this don't like true or none,
but one of Brace Belden's
rules is if you have a friend who
starts getting really into German
runes, just fucking ditch them.
That's a good rule.
If you also have a friend
that gets into
astrology, paganism, and
Indian mysticism
at the same exact time, stop
talking to them.
You've only got one of those for me.
And then the second
bit of when I
actually, after I had kids
and got to the point where it's like, okay, I can
afford to feed my children and send
them to daycare, and now I have
some extra money. I bought
the cheapest motorcycle
on the market because i have
a death wish um but like that but like you just take that that logic of like what do you do when
you get extra money right and you multiply it out like that's what these everybody does that is that
is that that is it and the billionaires are no exception to this because they just want more money to spend it on stupid shit like an Atheot or whatever the hell they want to.
But these players, no one is there to tell them this money does not last long.
You need to figure out a way to make it last.
And also, here is this whole complex of the fact that as an
athlete, you have to also be a
personality. And a lot of part of that
is like
being a consumerist. Like wearing
brands and doing stuff like that.
Right, right. Endorsements.
When my dad died,
the payout
from his life insurance was
more money than I ever had in my bank account.
And I spent half of it going to Rome for the temple.
And then the other half I fucking blew.
So I don't have any of that left.
Like I was stupid.
I've spent,
I spent the,
I spent 10 grand in three months.
I just bought,
bought computer shit.
I'd never had that money.
I,
I,
cause in my brain,
it was,
it was free money.
I was never going to have it again might as
well use it i guess i had a blessing i guess i had a blessing of having to write a 90 000 check
for my student loans as soon as my dad died but uh but um fuck pennsylvania private schools in
general is all i have to say about that yeah i uh i i think that's part of it. And like, you know, it's funny. I saw a, an Instagram thing about like, wise investments athletes had made, which I thought was pretty interesting. But like, even that is still like a crapshoot. And I just, you know, we're not talking, we are talking in some cases generational wealth, but like in a lot of cases cases that's one or two generations at most i just you know i i uh i will say uh when my grandmother died uh i also blew my money on
computers and we all you know it's not a crime to want to buy things it's a crime to like
be a shithead about it like i mod my my gti has a loud ass exhaust and i drive by the nursing home
real loud and then i drive by kindergartens and i don't do donuts because it's front wheel drive
but if it was all wheel drive i wouldn't be doing donuts yeah yeah i have a loud ass exhaust harley
like every other dipshit or harley owner see um see I speaking of vehicles now because so that my brain's weird
right when we know this but um uh we support neurodiversity on this podcast uh I I if I had
the money I would buy the what was it the the Nissan Cherry the the that's in my summer car
like the like the it's in the game it's like the Satsuma but it's like the Nissan Cherry
like because I basically now know how to repair it i'm like no i want that car now because
i know how it works like that's what i would do buy some dumb small car that no one uses anymore
that yeah i could we should talk offline oh you have a nissan would you like to buy the friendship
miata uh you and i buy a miata and and we paint ourselves on the hood
just embrace the midlife crisis now yeah how old are you 40 40 40 45 yeah 78. Just random numbers.
I, you know, like,
I drive a front wheel drive car that makes too much horsepower and
torque steers very viciously
when I go too fast on the New Jersey
Turnpike.
But I like it.
I've driven a Miata once on 95.
A Miata? Sorry, my voice
is the Miata.
You're going, buddy.
Yeah, so I drove
and I'm trying to
come up with new
Wow! Come up with new
verb paradigms for
my mouth's not opening enough.
What's wrong with me?
Well, I have a
disgusting joke about that.
I thought the same thing.
Anyway.
Sorry.
I felt I was going to –
I'm now scrolling Facebook Marketplace for stupid buys, and I found – this is purely for anybody who's into motorcycles.
A Kawasaki Concourse 14, which is a touring bike with the biggest Kawasaki sports bike engine in it possible for sale for $5,000 cash in hand.
So if anybody wants to buy a death trap with me, I'm going to split the lane at 95 at 5 PM.
That's what you're going to do. So, so, so real quick that the Miata, uh, I thought I was going
to die on 95. They're very low to the ground. You are like six inches off the ground.
You are the ground.
Every little piece of gravel or roadbed that comes up,
you feel it banging against the bottom of where the floor is.
Oh, my God.
I drive a GTI, buddy.
I am familiar.
Oh, man.
It was fun, though.
I drove a turbocharged Hyundai as my first car that I bought,
the three-door Veloster, the first turbo.
In Pittsburgh, when I was living at the time, which is known for potholes and things like that.
I've had to replace a lot of tires.
I had low-profile tires.
Yep, I do too.
All-season performance Nitto tires on there.
They were not cheap, and I had to replace
quite a few
for that vehicle.
But yeah,
going,
going like
70.
That's not actionable.
On,
on like the,
on like the only couple
major highways in Pittsburgh
in a,
like a tiny car like that.
As soon as like
some guy in a truck
you start passing
you just feel the car shake
as you're going around.
I did an actionable speed
on the New Jersey Turnpike the other day.
I won't
message you the speed in
chat.
I'll say that.
My passenger was just like,
this is it, huh?
This is the end.
I hit, so you know,
if you're driving south of 95,
I don't know if it's 295,
but it's that stretch. It's that real
flat stretch, and you're right next to the,
you're going down towards Wilmington.
And there's that, right by the ocean.
495.
495, and you can see
all the buoys right there,
and you're right next to also the northeast
corridor. And it's a
couple miles of flat dead flat yep uh hyundai accent unmodified i maxed it out 120 at four
in the morning talk about vibrations yeah holy shit that was and and there's a reason i burned
the transmission out like on that uh accent i won't say but this is what you do when you
fucking have a car for the first time and you're you never i won't say that. But this is what you do when you fucking have a car
for the first time
and you never
decide to buy a car.
I'll just say that
if you see a Triumph Trident
on 611
coming out of Doylestown,
no, you didn't.
Will you give us
their license plate?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Joe Kasabian's
actually driving it.
Yes.
Yeah. The author of to Triumph as well.
You can smell the
Armenian musk
just falling.
He has a prominent brow
and he does what he can to get by.
Is he wearing long sleeves? No, that's just
his body hair.
I would make that, and you know I would make that joke
if Joe was here.
Yes, I know. It was my first car. just his body hair. I would make that, and you know I would make that joke if Joe was here.
I was my first car. I love the
bullshit episodes.
There's nothing to fucking talk about.
Sports are dead.
We could talk about Car Malone.
We'll talk about Car Malone in a bit and talk about the
rehabilitation of an honest-to-God predator.
But before that,
let's talk about my first car.
I'm going to put the my summer car music in yeah do whatever you want i my first car was a 1995 or
six volvo 850r wagon all right uh which as a little splurge for myself, I bought this car with invested bar mitzvah money.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
I had the paint.
I had to take it to a Volvo dealer, and we never got canary yellow in the United States for the Volvo 850R.
So I had them paint it.
The dealer painted my 850r canary yellow and that car was happiest at about
145 miles an hour yes uh i flew in that thing and the funny bit about it was uh you know i had done
some supporting mods to it the engine was co-developed by porsche uh the transmission
this being a volvo uh shifted
very slowly but once you were in fifth you were in fifth it was fine uh and right before i think
it was a four speed but uh i was picking up a friend of mine from school or go or going to
school and the the parents were like oh volvo like that's safe and i just had like a car yeah safe car 83 south
out of york towards the maryland line he's dead fucking straight uh when you get into the suburbs
that is the start of a country song what you just said that line yeah wow thank you uh this is
actually it's more appropriately these are all just clutch lyrics that they haven't written yet at this point.
155 miles an hour.
Absolutely fucking maxed out.
And it was perfectly happy to do it.
Faster than the Isola.
That car was built to do 140.
That's higher speed rail right there.
Yeah. that's higher speed rail right there.
I'll just add,
my first car I bought with my own money,
which I have,
I have a very amount of,
the reason why I love 80s shitty Camaros and Firebirds is I had a 1986 Camaro V6.
Nice.
It only had 130 horsepower but 170 foot pounds of torque uh in a car that weighed nothing so it got from zero to 60 instantly but it only topped out like
90 miles an hour um which what it meant was every time i'd come out of a parking lot that had any like
traction issues or something like that i was and also the guy that had it before me put straight
pipes out of the v6 on it why not uh and uh and inside of it it had like the the faux fur liner
yes um and still had vinyl seats and you replace the stereo with a cd player
um so if you so it was just loud as crap slow but got up to speed very quickly uh it would
spin tires i got pulled over so many times in that car just because i was like tearing down
the highway it's loud as shit and there was just,000 screamo music blaring out of the speakers.
And then that car, it only had 70,000 miles on it.
When I bought it, even though it was 1986.
And then I had a bunch of cars that broke down after that, repeatedly.
And nothing had under 200,000 miles on it for the next like
10 years yeah i uh i have messaged you the speeds
yes oh yeah is that second one and and because you said because you say the country is that uh
is that in kilometers per hour
that is i didn't know it could go that fast it what has extensive modifications No, it is not. That is...
I didn't know it could go that fast.
Well, it has extensive modifications.
Yeah.
I just...
I think I said this before.
I can't remember if it was a Twitter thread
or it was on here, but...
So when my dad died,
I also got his Ford Ranger,
and it was the original first-gen Ford Ranger,
not like the shit they're making now.
Yeah.
When pickups were meaningfully small.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And you could actually do shit.
I could park it in the city.
And I spent my summer fixing it up, like spending money, taking it to the shop, like getting
it, like, like buying parts for it.
They got like the suspension fixed and all that.
And then I was down by the, by the river um and it uh it flooded
and i drove it out of there and um little did i know that the axles were already in really bad
shape and so my brother borrowed it drove it the axle snapped in middle driving he would he didn't do anything and he crashed into a nun's brand new car as you do and and uh i still mourn that that ranger because i really like i put work
into it and it was shitty but i loved it and then but the nun was actually nice it's funny because
like the nun came out she was like like you know acting as a nun should and then like the nun's
neighbor who helped the nun out was like, what did you do?
She just – think of like a Port Richmond –
What did you do?
She just bought that car.
What's wrong with you?
Why are you driving?
Are you drunk?
I'll call the cops.
My brother was completely – it was fine.
The axle fucking snapped.
It was a wreck.
It was lost, like complete.
Lucky my brother didn't get hurt. It was a wreck. It was lost. Like, complete. Lucky my brother
didn't get hurt.
I had a
my second car,
well, my dad gave me a car
because he said, you can't take that Camaro
to college.
Why not?
Dad, it says pussy wagon and I painted it
myself.
I put the shade carpeted.
I put dice in the windows.
What are you talking about?
That is why I'm sour about that, and I have a love for that era of cars,
is he sold it after that.
And because he was selling it at halftime, I was pissed.
Because he gave me a Pontiac grand prix that had over
two thousand hundred thousand miles on it and the first thing that happened a couple years into
college was i got rear-ended and pinned into the car the truck in front of me and it bent the frame
on the vehicle and they said okay so we can either uh try to fix this but it's totaled um so we can either try to fix this, but it's total.
So we can just give you the money and you take the car because it's still drivable. And I was like, Oh cool.
I'll just pay my rent this summer because I didn't have any money.
So I did that.
And then I drove around the Pontiac with 220,000 miles on it with a bent
frame the next year until the transmission finally gave out and then got i had it locked up on campus for
six months before i'm not joking about this uh my roommate at the time my best man called me he goes
so i have some guys that can come take the car but uh they'll give you cash for it. Just don't really ask me questions.
And I was like, cool.
He's like, sounds good.
And so my roommate grew up in Braddock, Pennsylvania.
Oh, boy.
Okay.
A few gentlemen there.
He was on the same football team as Rob Gronkowski.
And they're players.
He was the kicker.
You can look it up. He had these two guys come up, and they step out of the tow truck.
And there's one guy who's clearly the mechanic, had a jumpsuit on that was covered in grease and stuff like that.
But big, giant, golden cross necklace dangling from it.
And then there's the guy who i figured out actually owned the shop clean jumpsuit nice slick back hair and in the most yinzer italian accent just gonna make
this you got title like i'm like uh no so my dad gets i don't worry about it here's the cash
gives me four dollars with a wad of cash out of his pocket pulls out four bills hands with
have a good one, we'll take care
of it from here. Hand him the keys,
never heard from him ever again.
Beautiful.
I could tie this loosely back to sports.
Yes.
Bring us back home.
So my buddy bought
with his Drexel Co-op money
$95, this is 2012,
a $95 Ford Ranger.
Yes.
With like 30,000 miles.
He, you know, and he abused that car is the only way I can say it.
But I was breaking up with my ex and I was like,
I want to get the fuck out of Philadelphia.
And I was like, you know what would be fun?
Why don't we go tailgate at an Ole Miss game? So we loaded up the 95 Ranger and drove to Mississippi and back with zero planning.
Mississippi won 73-16 against Fresno State.
Eat shit, Derek Carr.
And I remember we were crossing. He told me, he's like, listen, I'm excited to do this, but
if we run into trouble before we hit Tennessee,
we're just going to turn around. I know we're going to be very far into Virginia at that point. It's not worth it.
I have to use this truck.
So we cross into Tennessee.
And I kid you not, you can see the welcome to Tennessee sign in the rear view.
And the transmission loses third.
Oh, no.
And make a pit stop.
Fix it.
It made it to Mississippi and back.
The smell leaked into the seats, if you know what I'm talking about.
It leaches into the fabric.
Yes, it does.
And, yeah, absolutely fantastic car.
I love those first-gen Rangers.
Why don't we talk about how much Carl Malone fucking sucks?
Yeah.
Well, so if you haven't listened to the bonus we did with Greg and what's his name?
Not Jordan.
The other one.
Fuck.
I can't remember his name.
The Brigham Young Money guys.
Where the Ukraine war happens live.
It does.
As we're recording.
We talk about Carmelone a bit.
But if you haven't heard that, Carmelone impregnated was a 12-year-old?
13-year-old.
13-year-old.
13-year-old when he was in college.
When he was 20.
And apparently he's mad that people are talking about it.
Unrepentant.
He is un-fucking-repentant.
The best headline that I saw from it was from Laura Wagner, who writes for Defector.
The title of the article she wrote is
Carl Malone is sick of being asked about impregnating a child.
Damn, maybe you shouldn't impregnate a child then.
Laura Wagner does really good fucking work.
Yeah.
I mean, it's also like, this is fucking awful.
But also, Carl Malone also doesn't talk to his other kids either.
Because he has other other children and he has
abandoned all of them
on top of
impregnating a child when he was 20 years old
and then having it being swept under the rug
for all of his career.
Yeah.
And then they're inviting him
to be a judge for this year's dunk
contest at All-Star weekend.
We don't
need to fucking rehabilitate Carl Malone.
Nope. No. We don't.
There are many other stars that were
that are worth a shit.
Yeah. We don't need to
rehabilitate this fucking asshole.
Nails Dick to the floor.
Nails Dick to the floor. Hey!
What a good phrase.
What would you do with Carl Malone's dick, Colin?
Charlie, where you at?
Yeah.
267-371-7218.
Leave your name and pronouns and tell us how you would nail Carl Malone's dick to the floor.
What tool would you use?
Nail gun?
Are you going crucifixion?
You know.
Oh.
Yeah.
What are we doing?
Not that Carl Malone doesn't deserve it,
just that I meant to live in Jalon.
Just crucifying his dick.
Yeah, just his dick.
We're making a little mini one.
Oh, like one you see in a kitchen, yeah.
Yeah, a little kitchen crucifixion.
Did I say guillotine?
I meant to say, uh,
it's all good.
Guillotine's an option.
It's on the table.
We can do whatever you want, man.
We got time.
I mean, it depends.
Liam's already been guillotined
if you think about it.
Thank you.
You were also circumcised, buddy.
Yeah, I know.
You checked.
When I first met, you were like,
hey, how's it going?
Nice to meet you.
All right, let me do the standard check.
All right, cool.
Patrick, are you circumcised?
Oh, I don't want to reveal something. I'm not.
Oh, okay.
I'm uncut. Great, you know, great West Virginia Protestant families.
Great, great. You, something you and the great Stavros Halkis share.
It's a European tradition.
It's a sign. It's European. It's not a bag. It's a, it's a European tradition. It's a sign. It's European.
It's not a bag.
It's a,
it's a,
yeah.
I mean,
it is.
So Jesus Christ.
Oh my God.
Hey everybody.
Hey guys.
Welcome back.
A guy,
a guy at work,
uh,
uh,
you know,
he had a kid.
He's like,
yeah.
Then the doctor took him and snuffed him.
And I said,
Oh,
they still do that.
Like, I didn't want to be like an asshole like oh i didn't know they still
recommend that he's like well he didn't recommend it but they just answered me one of them i was
like oh interesting there is a part of me because there's no like there's no there's no tie to the
practice in either way in my family's cultural heritage at at least of my, both of my parents.
My mom is two generations removed from her granddad who was,
who was German Jewish. There's nothing there, but I do like,
I want to just have a recording. My mom wrote in a journal,
everything about like when i was born
um but conveniently skipped out on that conversation and i want to know that conversation
and how it happened and the reasoning because it's just such an odd thing for the time period
that's the only thing i really care about it is like hey mom why what you know what why why what how did this conversation go basically
oh yeah when Liam's the one keeping us on track that's the uh
yeah you know things things are starting to run bad things are grim um yeah uh
do you want to do the best trash talker in all sports your takes
yeah yeah we want people calling and tell us who the best trash talker in all
sports is it's ikaro who's that ikaro suzuki am i saying his name wrong is it ichiro ichiro
ichiro my bad i've only you're trying to pronounce it like he's ikaro you know yeah
i did i did have sushi in milan once also possibly uh i will say best but most iconic to
me personally is uh reggie miller as nick's killer with the the choke to uh spike lee
like that picture where he's like looking at Spike Lee and doing the choke gesture is, I think, honestly one of the more iconic images in sports.
There's always one that comes up in my mind that I have mixed feelings about only because when it worked, it worked.
And when it didn't, he got shut down.
It was embarrassing.
It was Warren Sapp.
Warren Sapp was a huge trash talker, but if you talk to a lot of linemen of the era,
like John Wellborn, former Eagles player,
also played the Patriots, and Dallas,
and like eight other teams in San Francisco,
he was a great tackle
and would regularly shut down Warren Sapp.
And that was the big thing about like,
Warren Sapp would trash talk until he got shut down
and I always feel like the best trash talkers
trash talk through the fact that they're eating shit
yeah oh yeah
yeah just like
not paying any attention to the outcome
of the game or even what's happening to
you
that's why I'll say my vote goes
to the goat
John McEnroe
who would talk shit through losing tennis matches abysmally That's why I'll say my vote goes to the GOAT, John McEnroe,
who would talk shit through losing tennis matches abysmally and just scream at officials all the time.
My vote's for Ali.
I just think he was the best at fucking talking shit.
He'll come back up in the bonus episode.
Oh, will he?
Oh, excellent.
He had one MMA match.
It was kind of embarrassing.
That's tough.
Yeah.
I didn't know MMA was
around long enough for that.
Interesting.
Listen to the bonus episode and people will find out.
Yeah.
I'm going to listen to my future
audio.
Alright.
We're at hour
four plus the nine.
We're at hour 15.
We don't need to do voicemails.
As funny as that would be.
The guy who
called it is a fucking asshole and I don't want to talk to him.
Look, I know who called in, and as I said earlier, I'm purging parts of Pittsburgh from my life.
That's one of the guys?
That's one of the guys.
We're still on good terms.
I know the guy.
He's a good guy.
You unionized all the toilet factories in the greater Pittsburgh metropolitan area. Do you know what a're still on good terms. I know the guy. Good guy. Unionized all the toilet factories
in the greater Pittsburgh
metropolitan area.
Do you know
what a Pittsburgh potty is?
Yeah.
The one that's just
in the middle of the basement?
Yeah.
You take a shit
and like spiders
and fucking,
you know,
weird creatures
that live in the basement
come out.
It's where coal miners
would come in.
They'd have to come
into the basement.
You have a wash bin
and an open toilet
in the middle of the basement.
I think it's a great invention.
I kind of wish I had a Pittsburgh potty in my office sometimes.
All right, let's have this bitch up so I can eat,
and then we'll get back to it.
All right, yeah.
All right, so shouts out to our North Catholic tier patrons,
Patrick M., Sean P., Mike S., Amanda B., Stephen D.

Step it up, man.
All right, we're getting close to, like, what's the week?

I forget what we said we'll do, but it's something cool.
Yeah.
Plugs, 267-371-729.

Didn't you get mentioned by a fellow Swoletariat member, Greg Knuckles, recently?
I think you were telling me that.
Oh, yeah, on Reddit.
It's Reddit.
I post well on the Stronger by Science subreddit.
It's the only subreddit I post well on for good information.
But it was actually about how to structure a program, about how to build the best glutes.
All right.
Well, that's a perfect circle right now.
Perfect. That's where we started. That's a perfect circle right now. Perfect.
That's where we start.
That's where we're ending it.
