Starting point is 00:00:00 This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed Human. The 2026 NFL draft is here, and the NFL Daily podcast has it covered from all angles. Join me, Greg Rosenthal, and Jordan Rodriguez after night one on Thursday. Nick Shook joins me night two Friday and then Sunday to recap everything that went down over the three days in Pittsburgh. We'll tell you who won the draft and which players were my favorite picks.
Starting point is 00:00:27 Listen to NFL Daily with Greg Rosenthal on the IHard. Art Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. This is Julian Edelman, host of Games with Names. On our latest episode, we got comedian Blake Anderson from Workaholics and The Hilarious This Is Important Podcast. Let's go. We did beat them in improv. You had an improv against the team?
Starting point is 00:00:47 Yes. We would pull up their schools would be there with signs for us. It's competition. What you would win is a bottle of gold shlogger. James Fester threw it out of a van because he didn't want us drinking it. For more games with names, visit the IHeartRadial app or wherever you get your podcast. Hi, I'm Iris Palmer, host of the Against All Odds podcast. Every week, I'm sitting down with exceptional people who have broken barriers,
Starting point is 00:01:11 even when the odds were stacked against them. Like chef Victor Villa of Villas Tacos. You know the Taquero from the Bad Bunny halftime show? It was great. It was a big moment. It was special. And I felt like I was really representing my family, you know, my brand, my city. I was representing all taqueros, not only a very moment.
Starting point is 00:01:29 like, you know, the U.S., but of Mexico and beyond, all the taqueros of the world. Listen to Against All Odds on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. Can I say something? You can say whatever you want. You can have whatever you like. You know who sings that? So this is just for the listeners. Good talk.
Starting point is 00:01:52 Just ignore me. Just ignore my ass. Don't worry about it. You can have whatever you like. T.I. Good job. Ray, I'm going to ask you something from our wheelhouse. Who is the greatest Bulls team in the...
Starting point is 00:02:03 No, no, no, no. Literally, you were just saying, can I say something? I was just trying to tie it in. You can say whatever you like. And then I said, who's saying that? And you just kept going like I wouldn't even hear. It's cool. Go ahead, man. Ray, who is a greater team?
Starting point is 00:02:16 This year's Wembe or Tim Duncan and Manu? No, do I do that ever? I'm going to go with Wemby this year. No, it's the thunder. They can't, they don't lose, dude. They don't even have half their team and they just win. Hey, don't worry about me a championship hangover. They got it.
Starting point is 00:02:30 They're just going to keep winning. Go ahead. And they got six men of the year. Who's that? I believe a Jai Mitchell or something. Oh, he's pretty good. All right. So, guys, here is, this is just to you guys.
Starting point is 00:02:40 Lunch isn't even hearing this. I've gotten inside source news that Netflix. Have you heard of it? I've heard of it. It's a show. TV station. Actually, it's a streaming service. It's not a TV station.
Starting point is 00:02:54 So we're both wrong. Eat that. They are going to start streaming podcasts. That is why we need to get in bed with video. I knew there was a reason we were doing videos. Hear that, truckers? You guys aren't going to be alone at night. So get that blanket on tight because we're coming to Netflix.
Starting point is 00:03:24 Wow, let me, we are the sore losers at gmail.com. Let me check our inbox. Um, nothing from Netflix, man. They are not interested in our videos. They have not. They said, your videos suck. We're not interested. Thanks for nothing.
Starting point is 00:03:40 But this is the start of it. So we've got to start the videos. I don't care if I don't feel like doing it. I don't care if you don't feel like doing it. I don't care if they said we're going to have an intern that never showed up. That's real. That's not even Arnold, the make-believe guy. Hey, don't talk about me when I'm not there.
Starting point is 00:03:56 There's supposed to be some intern that's running our crap. I still haven't seen them. or her. We need videos. So now you're back on the video train. Because of Netflix. I don't know how many more signs we need. We're going down and messing with people on Broadway.
Starting point is 00:04:13 We're going and interviewing people. We're going to film our podcast. We need videos. Okay. So the video's running right now? And even more. So the video's going right now? No.
Starting point is 00:04:30 Guess what the freaking. email said. No, there was no email. Netflix did not email me. I'll forward it. Not that one, but I'm saying the one that tipped me off about this. Okay, go ahead. What else is saying? It said, I heart looks to form relationship with Netflix. Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, dong ditch, the witch is dead. If that isn't writing on the wall, I don't know what is. We're coming to Netflix. Man, I never thought Netflix would want to do a filming of this podcast in this tiny studio that looks like we're in the basement of our parents' house. Has no flare to it, no character, no nothing.
Starting point is 00:05:20 It is just a plain Jane studio. I could see Netflix wanting to splash this all over America and across the pond and over to Australia, down to Japan, and back to Tim Buck, too. They don't want anything to do with our podcast because look at this thing. We got to get our own studio. We got to get some pizzazz, some lights, some stuff like on the walls. Hide your kids. Hide your wives because we're coming to Netflix. Who needs YouTube TV?
Starting point is 00:05:54 Get Netflix, baby. My wife pulls up the Netflix top 10 where she always just doomscrolls to try and find something to watch. And our podcast is on there. Great use of doom scroll, by the way. Very well done, man. Because I pulled up Netflix the other day and I turned something on for the kids and Baby Box is like, I don't like this. I'm like, what? You've never seen it?
Starting point is 00:06:17 Yeah, I have. It literally been released that day. I'm like, you haven't seen this. You've been at school. He goes, I saw it. I saw it. 20 minutes later, he's like, dad, this is really funny. I don't know what it is.
Starting point is 00:06:32 I have no idea what it is one of those cartoons, but he loves it. it's a Dr. Seuss thing, but it'd been released that day, but automatically it goes, I don't like it. Smart kid. I've already seen it. It's not funny. Play it off thinking that you weren't going to check when it was released. Well, I mean, it literally said in red, new release. My wife already knows my things. It's like, we ain't watching a Christmas movie now.
Starting point is 00:06:53 You know, if it doesn't have palm trees, I'm probably not watching it. It needs to have a hot co-lead, stuff like that. It needs to be something to do with water. So who's the hot lead on this if we do Netflix? Do we need to get a chicken? Do we need to get a palm tree in here and have like a cocktail waitress bringing us drinks during the show? So it looks good on Netflix?
Starting point is 00:07:15 Sounds like we need Abby on more. We need Amy on more. We need Morgan number two on more. We need Morgan number one on more. We need... That means we've got to put sand in the studio. It's like we're at the beach. What's the rock station girl name?
Starting point is 00:07:29 I don't know if there's a rock girl. The midday girl that you've met her before and I always, I've met her maybe once. But she used to, she has a corner office next to a kitty. I think she's on the beat. Whatever. Kate. Kate. Yeah. We got her in here.
Starting point is 00:07:45 I didn't know she was on the rock. I don't know. I have no idea what she's on. Sales lady's in here. We've never had a sales lady on. Perfect. We did have that one lady from Minnesota that was walking through. Never got an email from her saying, hey, she listened and then she liked the pot or anything like that. Her and her husband went back and listened to it. No, it's cool. We just throw you on our podcast. podcast, you don't even give us at least one download? That's all right.
Starting point is 00:08:06 They had to have listened back to that. Well, they didn't notify us. Because the data shows they did. It was our biggest quarter of our existence. Maybe that's why Netflix is coming on board now. It goes hand in hand with we getting us, we getting us getting more Soror Losers Nation listeners this quarter. Netflix saw that.
Starting point is 00:08:30 They've been in tune. Now we are coming to Netflix. And it also shows most people don't read their emails. By me reading, just reading something, we're six months ahead, everybody else here. Nobody else knows this. Yeah, I don't know if I got that. Did I get the email? It depends.
Starting point is 00:08:46 Sometimes they put me on some mailing list as a producer that I get stuff where it's like these polls, results, this happened, this signed, this artist is behind bars. This artist came out, you know. Yeah, I think you probably got that and I didn't because I didn't get anything like that. I don't get any polls or this or that or this and that. Ray, who was it that came out? Yeah, but we should start the show, man. Might as well start the show. Now, hey, we're coming to Netflix.
Starting point is 00:09:11 You are looking live, Netflix. We are the one. D.C. Saw losers. Man, I just got to say it's a pleasure to be on Netflix now. I mean, I am humbled. I never thought this was possible when I used to go to the little box outside the store and you would, or no, it was.
Starting point is 00:09:34 online and I'd order the CDs and they would mail them to us and then we'd watch the DVDs and we'd mail them back. Now we're going to be on this platform. It's like such an honor. So I mean, it feels really good. I am over the moon excited. I don't know if I was going to change my life, really. But what's up, everybody? I'm Lunchbox. I know the most about sports. So I'll give you sports facts, my sports opinions because I'm pretty much a sports genius. What up, y'all. It is Sizz. I'm from the North. I'm an alpha. male. I live on the north side of Nashville. I'm married to Bayser, my wife. We live in the
Starting point is 00:10:08 country 2.33333 acres. And we have two kids at Vanderbilt. Justin will check on them, my friend, in the electrophysiology unit. And I'm probably going to die of a heart attack when I'm 72. And let's go over to you on Netflix. Man, this feels different, man. The energy is different. The vibe is different.
Starting point is 00:10:29 It's just everything is different. It's the biggest energy intro we've done. This is so crazy, man. We are wacky. We love sports. Over here on Netflix. And we got to do a little cross-promotion right now. Make sure you watch season 8 of Stranger Things out now on Netflix.
Starting point is 00:10:51 And if we're in your top 10, good should be. Welcome. Welcome in. Are you in bed with your wife? Heyo! Are you doing a little Netflix and children, a little sore losers podcast? If you don't know a lot about this podcast, we are two dudes sitting at a bar stool talking sports, talking life, and talking pop culture.
Starting point is 00:11:10 Welcome to the Soar Losers podcast. The barstool, did you steal that from Barstool? What? That's their slogan, a barstool. That's the name of their whole company, Barstool. What else you're going to say? The Entertainment Sports People Network. That's really their thing?
Starting point is 00:11:28 Yeah. Oh, crap. A bunch of guys sitting on bar stools and that's how it was formed. Oh. What's the next thing here to say? A bunch of friends are on a microphone? Can I be honest? I literally never heard that. I literally was just trying to go from the dome, like come up with something.
Starting point is 00:11:48 And, oh, man. That's how Portland, they created the whole thing. Holy crap. It started with a newspaper and then it is now whatever this mega conglomerate it is. Yeah, now they do the thing that McAfee does, but they do it on Fox, right? Are you talking about Saturday Game Day? I thought, oh, is it game day? I thought they did their show on Fox Sports now.
Starting point is 00:12:08 Yeah, they do. They're one of them. But I don't talk about that because we're on Netflix. Welcome back, man. That was a minor hiccup. I didn't mean to use barstool. That was, I swear to you, I'd never heard that in my life. That's really weird.
Starting point is 00:12:22 And now that you say it, it makes complete sense on how that is tied in. And also, it's like, I feel like Portnoy, can we talk about him for a second? Yeah, we can. I just feel like he's kind of like a crotchety old man. Before he was rich, now that he's rich, just like he hates everything. He treats his employees like crap. And I'm like, I get it. Does he treat him like crap or does he treat him awesome?
Starting point is 00:12:47 I don't know. But I'm like, are you guys really sitting around bar stools right now? Are you just in a boardroom yelling at each other? I will say that they do a lot of videos of them watching games together. That's not entertaining to me. No, no, I'm not saying it's entertaining. But I'm saying, do they not have family? There's nothing.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Does no one at that, like, it's amazing how many people are there watching games on Saturday, Sundays, Monday nights, Tuesday nights. And I saw one of their dudes hit a big parlay. He had 90,000. He hit 90,000. It was like anytime touchdown for J.J. McCarthy. He went all quarterback. Trevor Lawrence. I don't know which other ones he had, but.
Starting point is 00:13:25 Some running back called Netflix. And I was like, damn, that's great. But they were all around watching it. And I'm like, how are all these people just sitting? around watching it. I think the same thing. And one of their main guys is Big Cat. He has a wife. He has kids. And it was probably a Sunday. He's not at home with his family. They make him work on a that sucks. He does the weekday show. And then he has to on a Sunday go watch the game with a bunch of 18 year olds. Do you think they're required or is it fun? Oh, they're required. You're not going to
Starting point is 00:13:55 a room with cameras without alcohol. There's not booze. No, there's got to be booze. There's not because I don't think they're partnered with one. Well, I mean, maybe they drink in a Red Star, a solo cup. And they're all working so many hours. I don't really ever see them getting woozy. Because when I went to San Antonio, there was a band playing at our event. And the band doesn't drink, right? But the crew does drink.
Starting point is 00:14:22 So they hide it from the band. They had it in drawers. And then they also would pour it in. red solo cups and whenever someone would come in they would put the solo cup to the side. That's called something else. So it was weird. They weren't allowed to drink it in front of the band
Starting point is 00:14:39 but they were allowed to drink. I don't really know. I don't got a problem, man. I just pound two beers before I go to dinner with my wife. It's like okay guys. See, I don't know, but they do look like they have a cool setup where they have all those recliners and they're all sitting around watching games. Looks comfortable but I don't see how you can do that
Starting point is 00:14:56 seven days a week. Have you seen any chicks in those videos? No, I haven't. Does Brianna chicken fry still there? She does a podcast on there. But I don't care because I'm on Netflix. And I just don't think it's translated yet. Watching people watch TV.
Starting point is 00:15:16 I'm good. I get the streaming where a guy's staring at the computer stream and he's doing, he's doing interesting kind of crap. They're talking. There's a comment section. I get all that. But the dudes, because they can't legally show the TV what's on the TV. Oh, that's right.
Starting point is 00:15:30 Because they don't have a re-broker. Yeah, you're right. So that's why they have to show us watching them watch crap. I'm not in. I'm not in on that. Even the most interesting clip when the guy won $90,000, I clicked out after like five seconds. I'm like our podcast more interesting than that. Well, I find it interesting, but I don't understand it.
Starting point is 00:15:47 Maybe I'm just too old. Maybe this is going to make me sound like a crotchy old man. But I don't understand people that watch other people play video games. Like those people that like do Twitch and they show them. They live stream them playing a video game and they get millions of people watching. Can someone please explain to me what is entertaining about watching another human play video games? I'm going to hold your dick right there. Excuse me. Pardon me for saying that.
Starting point is 00:16:17 Are you entertained by watching other people gamble? No, because I am. When Steve Will Do does it and Bob Menry does it, it is a fascinating three hours at two am in Vegas. They filmed themselves, John Sarasani, at a table. Oh, your boy, John Sarasani popped up on my Instagram. I was like, who is this guy? And he's playing one-on-one blackjack. I'm like, all right, I'm bored. See, so I disagree with you on that, because the gambling is really entertaining. I don't. I agree with you on the video game. I can shake your hand on that, but I can't
Starting point is 00:16:54 meet you there with the, because the gambling is interesting. And when a streamer, like Kai Sinat, Interesting as crap. The speed guy, interesting when they're streaming. That's interesting. I mean, that speed guy, he streams him going to dinner. Interesting. That's why I streamed us at the convention. I started that.
Starting point is 00:17:11 I don't really understand. I started streaming. No. You did not start Netflix, but we are here now and it feels good. And you know, it's funny. The cameras aren't on and I keep pointing at the cameras. And there's nothing to see. But what I, hear me out.
Starting point is 00:17:26 If we took a trip to Vegas, right? That ain't happening in the foreseeable future, but sure. Hypothetically. Soor Losers Nation be, I mean, how is a casino you had to be betting big money to rent out a whole table to set up all your cameras? Because if I just come out on the casino floor and I have my camera and I put it up, is sore losers nation going to watch me play $25 a hand at Blackjack? Oh my gosh. You just thought of dumbly how you and me are going to. going to go stream and become huge on Netflix.
Starting point is 00:18:02 Yeah. As part of the podcast, we're going to go stream in Vegas gambling. Yeah. But how do you do it? You have to have... Casinos agree. You just ask them. But you had to have clearance ahead of time. I can't just walk up to a table and say, hey, can I stream why I play? No. You got them up before.
Starting point is 00:18:22 John Sarasani gets permission. The Rio gets permission. Right. So if I say, hey, guys, hey, hey, hey, hey, Red Rocks or whatever. It would be red rocks. You have 300,000 followers. I have 100,000 followers. Boom, both of us will be there streaming. We have this much of a following.
Starting point is 00:18:37 This how many downloads. Would you be cool with us renting out a table? And they're going to go, yeah, on a Tuesday? Perfect. Come. And then they're going to say minimum bet is $100, $200, $300 and $300 a hand. They're not going to say, hey, you can pay $25 a hand. You ready for the caveat?
Starting point is 00:18:53 Yeah. We've got to play with our own money. They'll let you film. But it's never make believe money. Those dudes really win or they really lose. No, I understand that. But is it going to be okay if it's $25 a hand? Are they going to let me have a whole table, a dealer, and stream for $25 a hand?
Starting point is 00:19:09 That's a great question because the guys I watch do play pretty huge hands. And we're cutting the stream if we're down $5,000. Like we won't even be able to afford our flight back. Yeah, that's what I mean. If I get down $200, I'm ready to walk away. They're like, but you emailed with us for the past month. Right. We lost our money.
Starting point is 00:19:25 Yeah, I lost $200, man. I got to switch the mojo. I got to go to another table, man. They have the table rented out, and we bail after being down 600. They clean us out. That's like, I mean, I got a call yesterday, and I look down and it's Garrett. And I'm like, man, what's Garrett calling me for? You know, and I pick it up.
Starting point is 00:19:43 What are you doing, man? What I owe this pleasure? He goes, I'm just driving. I like to call people on the commute. I'm like, oh, man, so we start talking. We talk about live, everything. And then he's like, hey, are we going to make Vegas happen? I mean, we've been talking about it since May, doing a weekend in Vegas to watch football.
Starting point is 00:20:01 I said, when do you want to go? And he goes, wild car weekend. Let's go to Vegas. Okay, Garrett. And I said, Garrett, have you ever heard of the Soor Losers Convention? He goes, no, actually, I haven't. What's that? I said, it's where Soor Losers Nation takes over Nashville.
Starting point is 00:20:17 It's wildcard weekend. I can't go to Vegas. Good job, Gary. You had our same great idea five years late. We had it five years ago for the first ever convention. Yeah, it's sort of like Ray invented streaming, and now we invented going to Vegas and taking it over. We did that a long time ago. You're way behind the game.
Starting point is 00:20:34 So needless to say, he goes, oh, all right, I guess I'll call some other people see if they want to go. I'm like, no, no, no, you don't go without me. What's his second option, Christmas? Hey, hey, can we go on Thanksgiving, man? Like, what? No. Me and Bezer did that last year. It was awesome.
Starting point is 00:20:49 Well, I have kids. Don't ever take that from me. That was a hell of a weekend. I'm going to tell you, when I used to go back to Austin. Hearing, oh, it's so hard! On the big screen at Vegas in the sports book, laughing my butt off. Dude, I'm telling you, when I'd go back to Austin during college, Thanksgiving break, the night before Thanksgiving were some of the wildest nights on 6th Street I've ever had.
Starting point is 00:21:13 Because the drinks are so cheap because, and it's not as crowded as it usually is. So, I mean, there's just, you go to every bar and it's just so friendly and fun. and everybody that's out is in for a good time. And there was one time I went out the night before Thanksgiving. Me and Chesday met two chicks. And we go back to their apartment. And we wake up to one of the girls' parents knocking on the door ready to go have Thanksgiving. And they're like, hide, hide, hide, hide, hide.
Starting point is 00:21:46 What the hell? We're grown adults. All right, we'll hide. So we hid in one of the girls' rooms. They left with the parents, left us in their own. apartment and we had to close up. We just had to leave after they left and then I guess they came back and locked it. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:22:01 But it was like, man, and then for us like, man, we got to get home for Thanksgiving, huh? We had to go to our parents out for Thanksgiving. What a hell of a tea day. It was amazing. And also, you know, you don't got all the homeless there at the soup kitchen. You don't got to step over them on six.
Starting point is 00:22:18 True. And there was one time my dad was going to come over and help me scrub the popcorn. the ceiling of my house. You know, I have the popcorn ceilings. Like, it's like, now everything is flat. Like, the new thing is have a flat ceiling. Right.
Starting point is 00:22:33 And he was like, I'll come over, you know, morning of Thanksgiving because we're not, you know, having Thanksgiving dinner. We're not supposed to be able to grandma and grandpa's till noon or one. I'm like, all right, cool. And I go out on 6th Street the night before and just get smashed. And that can't be easy. And I slept in my car downtown. And I've never been so cold in my life.
Starting point is 00:22:54 Yep. And I mean, luckily, back in the day, I had so many clothes in my car just piled on top of me. And I got up four times in the hours that I was passed out in my car after a nine on six street, peeing in the alley, getting back in the car. And then my dad's at my house at 7.45 a.m. So I had to set my phone alarm in the car to drive home and change. And we scraped popcorn for like two and a half hours. man i'm telling you those nights before thanksgiving great times hey brother you want to sleep on my part of the alley no man i got a car and i'm going to my
Starting point is 00:23:31 apartment i'm gonna go to my house man it's just i couldn't leave my car here it's thanksgiving man i needed to get to grandma and grandpas and yeah man it's really complicated oh brother i thought you're down on your luck like the rest of us no man hey man why are you peeing my car's just parked right there i just needed somewhere to pee i'm sorry you know i'm getting back in my car don't worry locked the doors boom it was really really cold because you couldn't have the car running because then you get D DUI. It can't be colder in this room right now. It's my feet are freezing. Yeah. Well, we'll go outside. We'll warm up. We'll come back. We'll take a break. We'll be right back.

If you're going to look at stats and numbers, he has no shot at making this World Cup team. And the truth about the U.S. national team.
Starting point is 00:26:14 It wouldn't be a huge surprise if our team ends up in the quarterfinals or potentially a great run into the semifinals. The World Cup is almost here. Experience it all with us. Listen, inside American soccer with Tom Bogart and Tab Brown. most on the IHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, wherever you get your podcast. All right.
Starting point is 00:26:37 Back on Netflix. Oh, man, we are back after that long awaited sponsor break by Netflix. I have to say, I love my wife, right? I really do love my wife. She's really a great woman. But she seems to be the worst at communicating what's going on in life. Don't agree. She is great with the convention.
Starting point is 00:27:00 My name is Bennett. I ain't in it. My name is Paul. It's up to y'all. Yeah. So she tells me, hey, got a text, said there's some kids meeting at the playground at the park after school, wanted to know if we wanted to bring our boys because one of the moms, the daughter was in kindergarten, which is Baby Box 2's age. And the other kid is in Baby Box's first grade class. And they're like, oh, it'll be great. It's a bunch of parents, you know. And I'm like, all right, great. Cool. She's like, so we're going to go. It's going to be about 3.30.
Starting point is 00:27:34 We're going to go to the park and play and hang out. I'm like, all right, great. Weekday? Weekday, Monday night. Woof. What I mean wolf? That blows, man. As a dad, I don't want to come home, get on the couch, TV's on.
Starting point is 00:27:47 I ain't leaving. Time change, too. Here's the thing, right? We get home, it's 1 o'clock. So I have two hours before the kids get home to, uh, relax. Got it. You know what I mean? It's not like I'm a dad that gets off at five walking the door.
Starting point is 00:28:01 door at 530 and boom I've had no rest time honey I bang my secretary sorry it's a little late sex session ran over uh and so I'm like all right cool and we get there and first thing I see is there's a pumpkin in the parking lot like just sitting there by one of the parking little blocks you know those little I don't know what you call them parking blockers so you don't go into the grass yeah There's a pumpkin. It's uncarved. And I immediately yell out, Who wants to smash a pumpkin?
Starting point is 00:28:40 Devil's night. I mean, why not? It's already after Halloween. We're at a random city park and there's just a pumpkin sitting there. You accidentally hit your own car. I'm like, why do we not want to smash this? So here come all the kids out into the parking lot. And boom, one person smashes it breaks in two.
Starting point is 00:28:58 Then there's two pieces. Two kids get it, but. And then they are all just taking little pieces and smashing this pumpkin all over the parking lot. From an environmental standpoint, it's got to be biodegradable. 100%. And then the possums are going to come at night. Raccoons, they're going to eat that. Squirrels, whatever else, little varmints are going to eat that thing.
Starting point is 00:29:18 Absolutely beautiful. Red foxes. Only problem is I didn't know any of these other parents. And I'm encouraging their kids to come out in the parking lot and smash pumpkins. Yeah. So I don't know what they. They felt about it because they didn't say anything to me. They just, I just saw them looking over and I'm like, I got all these kids in the parking lot.
Starting point is 00:29:35 And when cars would drive by, I'd be like, all right, car, move out of the parking lot. All right, smashing on. And we'd smash pump. So fun. Where's your wife come into play? Well, then, all right, I was like, all right, I think we're done smashing pumpkins. Everybody back to the playground. And I go.
Starting point is 00:29:54 And there's my wife. There's another mom. another mom. Whoa. And another mom. So my wife didn't tell me. She failed to tell me that it was going to be moms with their kids at the playground. She made it sound like this was a family outing for every family.
Starting point is 00:30:18 And so I'm the only dad there. You had to know Wall Street, Wally isn't going to be there. Broadway Ben isn't going to be there. Well, here's the problem. I don't know these people. So I don't know what Wall Street. Wallie does. I don't know what Big Street Ben does. I have no idea. I just assumed the way she made it sound is that the families were going to the playground and this was our chance to meet some more
Starting point is 00:30:42 families. You got to know that the dads are all. My neighborhood, it's me and the retired army people, the vets that are there and the day trader guy. We're the only people in the neighborhood the entire day. I thought maybe these people work odd hours if they're going to, the dads, you know, the family's going to be there at 3.34 o'clock. I mean, I think it's going to be great bonding. What's up? How you doing? Nice to meet you. Instead, the cackle of women are just standing in a circle talking. Oh, yeah, he's going to bed. And I'm just, I'm like, well, what am I going to do? So I just got to stand off to the side because I'm like, well, I'm not in the hen circle. Like, they're just chatting. Have you guys started using swing sets? So I just look like a creepy dude standing at the playground
Starting point is 00:31:25 off to the side, twiddling my thumbs. I'm like, well, I don't know what to do. do so girl save the kids handcuffs trust me so then i just call my sister and i get on the phone i'm just like oh i'm out awkwardly at the park don't worry my wife decided that we were going to do a playground meetup and she didn't inform me there's going to be no other dads here so i have no one to talk to so i thought to call you and just catch up on life most people would say you're being a but not me i actually agree with you on this one because when it's bayser and jessica or bayser and heather they will take off and there's no catching them you can't keep up in conversation Correct. You can't.
Starting point is 00:32:00 Oh, my panties. Oh, my thong. I'm not relating to that stuff. I have nothing to add. Yeah, I had a run in my panty hose. Don't know anything about it. Oh, I got these new high heels. Don't know anything about those. I got some pumps. Don't know what those are. Cool. I'm going to be over here. I'm going to be Paul and I'm going to leave y'all alone. And now that everybody's got a podcast, I swear, Beezer and her friends, they all now will tell stories that are four minutes long. And I'm like, I ain't got four minutes. I'm not even going to try and interject here. I'm going to run and I just yell it and walk out. Yeah, so I just kind of went over
Starting point is 00:32:33 and talked to my sister for a while chatted up, talked about you know, Halloween, how her weekend was, this, that, the other. Do you act like it was a business call? Oh, some sponsors for the big show. No, because they were far enough away from me. They didn't even notice
Starting point is 00:32:49 that I was there. They were in their little circle and I was over, they were by the swings and I was over by the slide, just like, do, do, do. And my wife wasn't like, hey, come over and chat with us. You know what I mean? It felt like they were deep in conversation. Women talk.
Starting point is 00:33:03 And so I was like, all right. So I talked to my sister and I got done. And then Babebox is, dad, dad, dad, can we play the monster game? And I'm like, all right, I guess if you guys want to play the monster game, we can play the monster game. And the monster game is, whereas I am the monster. And I say, you know, I'm getting kind of hungry. And you know what I want to eat? A kid sandwich.
Starting point is 00:33:28 I chase the kids. Love it. So fun. Most dads can't do it. They got higher voices. And they can't do it because they're not athletic and they, but here's the problem. I still have my stomach pain so it's a little harder to move around. So I really kind of walked. Oh, I thought that was just on the big show. No, no, that's a real deal, man.
Starting point is 00:33:46 Oh. I haven't played soccer in like a month because I can't freaking move. Jeez, man. I told you guys about planter fasciitis how bad it was. And then all of a sudden I hear now you can't run anymore. bones from the big show. He said he hasn't played pickleball in six months or something. I told you guys it's bad when you can't run.
Starting point is 00:34:05 No, it's awful. And so that's why we haven't had any soccer stories to tell. And none of you guys empathized. I empathized. I thought you were being a little, to be honest with you just didn't want to play basketball. Anyway, so I start playing with my three kids and one of the ladies, two kids. The other two ladies left. So it's now down to just two families.
Starting point is 00:34:25 Perfect. Three way? And so then all of a sudden these random kids start getting involved. Tag me, tag me. And I'm like, wait, that are not from the families? Yeah, they're not from the families. I'm like, you can do the air tag. I'm like, am I allowed to tag them?
Starting point is 00:34:42 No. Are they allowed to play? So then they come and tag you and you're. We got like 12 kids playing monster game. And I'm, you know, and one time I stick my arm through the bars because they're going across the bridge, my arm got stuck. That's fine. No, no, no, it's stuck in between the bars.
Starting point is 00:35:03 Chain link? No, no, no, metal pole bars. And I'm like, oh, God. Oh, God. You can still do the morning show, though, without your leg and arm. And so I'm sitting there, and, I mean, it took me a good three to four minutes to, like. Did you tell them you were in trouble? No, I just had, like, I was still trying to get them.
Starting point is 00:35:20 Like, I was trying not to be panicked. Good acting, dad. But deep down, I'm going, oh, my gosh, they're going to have to call the fire department. They're going to cut my arm out. They're going to have to cut the poles. You got to do ice. There's ways around it. And so I'm like,
Starting point is 00:35:31 uh, and I will kind of bend it, turn it. I got it out. I mean, my elbow area was so red from being stuck in there for the four minutes it was. And I was like, guys,
Starting point is 00:35:41 I need a time out. I need a time out. And then that's when I saundered over and talked to the other mom and my wife. I finally got in on the conversation. I was like, guys, you almost had to call the fire department. My arm got stuck in the poles.
Starting point is 00:35:54 They're like, oh my gosh. That's so bad. try and get it stuck over here. But then finally another dad showed up. Nice. Was he unemployed? He walks up. Hair's all messy.
Starting point is 00:36:06 And he's like, what's up? And I was like, hey. And he grabs one of the kids, goes and gets the car and drives away. He didn't really want to talk. I was like, oh, I thought he was coming to hang out. He's also probably looking at like, oh, it must be nice, dad. You're able to have fun times with your kids. I'm exhausted from work.
Starting point is 00:36:23 I don't even feel like running around. I'm going to a couch right now, much less. playing toy cars. Correct. And he just picked up one of the kids and left. And I was like, oh, thought he was coming to hang out. You got to realize, dad used to pick us up from stuff. Didn't even come.
Starting point is 00:36:39 He would sit in his truck. All the other parents talking. How's it going? How is the coal mine? Good, good, good. How's parent teacher stuff? Good, good, good. My dad, sit in his truck doing business calls.
Starting point is 00:36:50 Hey, dad, we're done with first grade. Dad. Go in his truck. Arch! Back to the lumber mill. Yeah, and I was like, oh, I thought he was going to hang out. And she was like, oh, he was going to, but my younger son had to go poop. So he was taking him home to go poop.
Starting point is 00:37:07 I'm like, there's a porta potty right there. Well, that's cool, man. I'll just hang out with you guys again. You know, I'll just be here and hang out and do nothing. And so that was my Monday night. I got to hang out at the playground with a bunch of kids and a bunch of women. When my wife said, oh, there's going to be families. She didn't freaking tell me there's going to be no dads.
Starting point is 00:37:25 Were the mom's unemployed? Stay at homes. I don't know what they did because I didn't talk to them. Just wonder how they're able to swing it. I know you because of your odd hours. Yes, my odd hours. This meetup at a 3.30, the average person can't do that. Now, the average person can't.
Starting point is 00:37:42 And there were 12 kids? I get the kids. How are parents able to be there? And why are people not at daycares? It's a great question. I don't know how everybody does it, but one guy was sitting on the bench and I was playing the monster game. And he goes, oh, I wish I had half the energy you have.
Starting point is 00:38:00 Thanks, man, good talk. What are you going to try to sleep with my wife? I didn't know. He wasn't part of our group. He was part of the randoms. Oh. He was random kids. He also might have been recovering.
Starting point is 00:38:10 Yeah. And then there was two homeless people that camp underneath the gazebo. They had all their stuff. And one started smoking a cigarette. I'd rather him smoke weed. That cigarette smoke was just blowing onto the playground and just reeking. And we're standing there. and he goes, trick or treat.
Starting point is 00:38:30 That's actually funny. And that's what I told the kids, hey, boy, it's time to go. Time to go. His calendar's off, four days? I said, I don't know what's going on, but he said trick or tree. Don't know what that means in homeless lingo, but we got to go. And so we bailed out of there, man. And then we went across street to get something to eat.
Starting point is 00:38:50 And my kids wanted turkey. So I got, I pull up. Can I get three turkey sandwiches, please? Oh, sorry, we're out of turkey. Dude, how can you be out of turkey? It's only 515. Yeah, it's easy out. Yeah, okay, all right, we'll take three pork sandwiches.
Starting point is 00:39:08 We're out of pork, turkey. What do you have then? It's 515. The dinner rush hasn't even started and you're out of those items. So, all right, man, we'll have a good evening. We're not going to eat here. Hungover Monday. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:25 Taco Bell near me. I go there. They used to have these steak chalupas that were amazing. Yeah. One of my favorite things at Taco Bell, I order it. We no longer have those. Well, but I'm actually staring at them on the menu. Yeah, we just haven't updated our graphic yet. Okay, that's fine. I'll get the chicken chalupas. We don't have those. I'm actually staring at those as well on the menu. They're both taking up the entire menu and they're my favorite product. Yeah, corporate just hasn't sent over the new graphics, but we don't have any of that entire left-hand panel. Awesome. I may put some tape over it or like an X, so we don't even look at the menu and get excited about that item.
Starting point is 00:40:05 But no, that's cool, man. I'll just order it. That's when you go, okay, what about this? And you order something else from the left side of the menu? And they're like, sir, I just told you that we don't have that. Well, and you know how the graphics are? It's covered the entire left-hand columns. So really now all I see are drinks, and I can get a cheese roll.
Starting point is 00:40:21 I guess I'll get the kids' charge. cheese roll and a fountain drink. That's all I can see on your menu. Oh, sorry, we're out of cheese, man. We'll take a break. We'll drive. The 26 NFL draft is here and the NFL Daily podcast has it covered from all angles. Join me, Greg Rosenthal and Jordan Roderig after night one on Thursday.

If you're going to look at stats and numbers, he has no shot at making this World Cup team. And the truth about the U.S. national team.

Starting point is 00:43:05 Hey, I told you I wanted to talk about something. This is where I was going to give you the floor. So Morgan Wallen tickets go on sale. For where? There's no Nashville. Close as Chicago. Also of Vegas. I thought maybe I could talk Bayesor into that.
Starting point is 00:43:19 They're supposed to send me a code last night because it's a pre-sale. Morgan Wallen, 20 cities, all next year. Got it. So I keep checking my email. Maybe it comes right at the time. No, these are all Mike D and Steve. They said they were going to send me a code for pre-sale. They never sent me a code.
Starting point is 00:43:42 Well, here's the thing, right? Do you know where you work? Yeah. Do you understand you don't need to buy tickets? These are the high demand, though. And not in a city, it's not here. What city you're trying to go to? Chicago.
Starting point is 00:43:59 Okay. Soldier Field. Okay. You got L. Langley. Gavin Adcock, Bayer's favorite and Wallen.
Starting point is 00:44:09 Okay. Do it on a Saturday night in June. Everything's going to be perfect. Okay. I got a pre-sale code. All right. But you do have a phone number that you can text.
Starting point is 00:44:20 There's two phone numbers you can text. Gator? No. Above him. Bones. Ding. I mean, what are you waiting on? Why would you not
Starting point is 00:44:31 hit him up? immediately. How the heck does he hook up a Morgan Wallen ticket? Have you ever hit up Bones for tickets? No, because I don't care to go to anything. Concerns aren't my thing. Well, he hooked me up with Eldridge
Starting point is 00:44:47 because it was here a local show and it's his friend. Dean. I didn't think him in Wallen Boys. And it's in Chicago. You don't think he has people all over the place? Yeah. But if I can afford him, I'm fine with paying for it. Why?
Starting point is 00:45:02 Why would you? pay for them. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Because pre-scalped, I can get them probably a good seat for me and Beezer, 150 a pop. No chance. Yeah. Before they go on the ticket master resale and people start trying to get them for 800. So
Starting point is 00:45:16 they're doable is what I'm saying with this dang code, but I'm like, so is the demand that high that I didn't even get selected to get a code to get into the presale to get a chance at these tickets? Are we dealing with the Beatles right now?
Starting point is 00:45:32 With this Walling guy? Well, Paul McCartney, speaking of the Beatles, is coming to Nashville. I see it on the billboard right across the way. It's like Nashville. Paul's coming back. When did he leave the 70s? No, he came five or six years ago. Maybe more than that, because I went to the show.
Starting point is 00:45:49 Oh, did you really? Yeah, cousin Andrew flew in because he wanted to see Paul McCartney. For the Beatles? Dude, let me tell you, we went to Bridgestone. Abby Road. I fell asleep. Wasn't good? It's awful.
Starting point is 00:46:04 Well, he's coming back. It was so freaking boring and it was so slow. And he started like an hour, at least an hour late. It was awful, dude. But some of those, we've went to Billy Joel because Beezer loves Billy Joel. It's a slower show. Does Billy Joel sing piano, man? They both have a version, so you got me.
Starting point is 00:46:25 Okay. He sings piano, man. You got Elton John sings piano, man. I don't know. No, I think they both do. One of them. John has Rocket Man. Sing us a song, Mr. Piano Man.
Starting point is 00:46:37 Yeah, I don't know who that is. I think that's Billy Joel. I don't know. But you've got to prepare for those shows. They're more relaxed. So I think Paul McCartney, you went in there thinking it's going to be Al Dean. No, no, I just didn't notice. I mean, let's be real.
Starting point is 00:46:52 Like some of the Beatles songs I had heard of, he didn't play him. Like, he was playing all this new stuff. And I was like, my God, get me out of here. But I slutted why my cousin watching. the show and I was just like, all right, whenever it's over, you let me know. This is God awful. But my cousin did go to his most recent show, the one that's coming here. He went to the one in San Antonio.
Starting point is 00:47:12 How is he such a fan of such an older gentleman? Dude, that's all he listens to is old music. Let me check my junk folder. Because his parents would listen to oldies and when he was a kid, he loved it. So when we used to have named that tune tournaments, he came with his frat brothers and they got hammered. and they all had their specialty. He was oldies. And they made it all the way to like the semifinals.
Starting point is 00:47:34 Really? They were so good. But also. They were so drunk, the bartender at main event. Is that where we had it? I don't know where we had it. Main event, maybe. Tell them no more alcohol for you guys.
Starting point is 00:47:48 Well, if we're going to come to a work event. No, they were in college. The question is, is he dating? Does he have a wife? He does have a wife now. Does she go to the stuff with him? I think she does go to the stuff with him. I don't know if she likes it, but she does go with him.
Starting point is 00:48:03 Because she basically tries that. She's gone to Billy Joel with her dad before, me once. And then the Trisha's stuff, she'll go with her dad, family. It's a little bit slower. But Wallen we go to together. Garth we go to two together. We're going to go to Adcock together, but it rained, bad weather. But Wallen, the fact that we can go to it together is just a good show.
Starting point is 00:48:24 Yeah, like cousin Andrew, he goes with his mom and dad usually. to the shows. I mean, Bezor goes with her dad. That's what I'm saying. He likes the old stuff so he'll go with his parents. He even goes with my dad sometimes
Starting point is 00:48:35 and my mom. Have you told him, though, Paul's coming back, Nashville? The billboard's been up for a week. But he's already been to Paul so I don't think you're going to see Paul twice in one tour. That is the one thing because isn't it? Okay.
Starting point is 00:48:47 It rotates about every fifth slide. Why does anybody go to the same show in the same tour? Because isn't it the same show in every city? Yeah, Dale, different openers, but if it's the show itself, yeah, it's the same show. That's what I don't understand.
Starting point is 00:49:03 That's maybe one I don't get. Maybe they'll play one different song, but I just can't see loving someone enough to fly from Philadelphia after seeing him in Philadelphia and then going to see them in Los Angeles. And sometimes maybe. This is just the outspiders or outspiders?
Starting point is 00:49:19 Devils advocate. Okay, got it. What if one show they want to see completely slashed and one show be sober for? That's a good point I didn't think about that I mean because sometimes when you're hammered for a show you're like Dang it was there a special guest
Starting point is 00:49:33 What Taylor came out with Tim McGraw Dude I was so drunk one time at CMA Taylor came out with Tim McGraw and they sang Tim McGraw and everybody's talking about it At the radio station I was like They played that song together I'll be I was there Yeah that's like that's the worst
Starting point is 00:49:49 When I went to go see Jay Z and Eminem at Yankee Stadium Right I don't even know this story And B-O-B opened for them. They're good. B-O-B. That's such a good song. I'm the airplanes and the night sky.
Starting point is 00:50:03 Like an airplane. So. Paul's coming back. Paul's back. He's on the billboard. And we're on Netflix. It says Paul McCartney got back. What?
Starting point is 00:50:15 So is he bringing Justin Timberlake up? But anyway. So this dude, B-O-B is playing and we're on the outfield grass. Like, that's where our chairs are. and he is standing on that chair and he is just loving it. He's going hard and he is so hyped. He's down in the freaking tallboys.
Starting point is 00:50:33 He's smoking weed. Just, I mean, probably smoked two months. Just wow. Just drinking. And then the lights go out. It gets dark. And Eminem comes out. He just passed out in his chair.
Starting point is 00:50:52 Bob? No, the guy in front of me. So he did not see one song of Eminem or Jay-Z because he was so high for the concert that he was just going so hard during B-O-B that he passed out. That's the worst too. You wake up. Now we have
Starting point is 00:51:08 Twitter videos, Instagram. You can kind of catch up. But I'm sure when you went to that. Oh, that was a long time ago. You would literally miss the performances. He missed everything. He did not see a single second of Eminem or Jay-Z. You wake him up. Hey, dude. He just played,
Starting point is 00:51:24 lose yourself. Hey, but, hey man, did you know he just did stand. What? Where am I, man? Hey, Mockingbird. He just did that one. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:51:33 I've never seen. That is one I've never seen. And if that mockingbird, don't cry, Mama's gonna buy you an olive buy. That's like we went to Vegas, dude, one year. And Ryan wanted to go see
Starting point is 00:51:47 Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga. Pass. Okay. And we were playing Blackjack at the Cosmo all day. and Ryan spilled two drinks on the freaking blackjack table. Two, not one, but two in our session. Don't know him.
Starting point is 00:52:08 And yeah, he's the gay guy that tells me what outfits look like crap and what don't. Never met him. Never met him? Oh, sorry, I'll have Ryan introduce himself. Anyway, so we're like, we got to go get ready. We got to get ready for the show, dude. And we go upstairs and we get a text. I'm not going to make it.
Starting point is 00:52:29 Like, what he means? I'm throwing up. Ryan was so hammered. He missed Tony Bennett, Lady Gaga. The whole reason we went. The whole reason we were in Vegas was to see Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga. And he got so drunk. He was vomiting.
Starting point is 00:52:43 And in the Cosmo, you have the windows that open up above the bathtub. And for some reason, he went in the bathroom, locked the door, and then climbed out through the window and closed the door. closed the window. Like he slid it back closed. And then he couldn't figure out how to get back in the bathroom when he needed to throw up again. So on top of all that, he's dealing with desert cold while you guys are at the concert. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:08 He was so freaking mad. We had that, not the drunk part, but we had Shania Twain for, was it last Thanksgiving? Because it was also Laura's birthday. My parents bought her the tickets. So we knew not to overdrink because you want to experience it more than dad bought the tickets. Usually it's good to have a concert because it breaks up to gam. and breaks up the drinking. Yes.
Starting point is 00:53:29 Whereas for the guy, a Bob, it didn't for him and it didn't for your boy. Yeah, that's like we were in Vegas at the Cosmo. My wife and I, she used to do the promotions for the Cosmopolitan
Starting point is 00:53:40 and we were there for red hot chili peppers. They were doing the New Year's Eve show. And so we're there a night early and the black keys were playing at the hard rock. Pass. I don't even know who they are. But other people from her work were going.
Starting point is 00:53:55 They're like, hey, we're going to leave two tickets at the will call for. you. And so we go down and we're playing blackjack right by where the sports book is now. And we're drinking and she's having their little cosmopolitan drinks. And we sit there and there's two moms that sit down and they're there for their daughter's 21st birthday. The daughter doesn't turn 21 until midnight. So they're down there just gambling and drinking until she turns 21 at midnight and can come out of the room.
Starting point is 00:54:18 That's motherly. Yeah. And we sit there with them for like three and a half hours. And then Lars like, ah, we better go get. ready for the show and she stands up because I'm so drunk I gotta go to bed your wife so I got to go to bed says I don't realize how drunk I was I said we got to go the room I'm gonna pass out oh no and I'm like what so yeah it's not good I got to go I got to go she pulled a your gay friend she played a to Ryan but this was before Ryan pulled his this is before pre Ryan So we go up to the room and I'm like, stop, we're going to the show. Get up.
Starting point is 00:55:02 I said, I can't. I can't. I'm like, and I'm thinking she's going to get in trouble because I thought it was a work thing. Like they all had to go to the black keys. You got to go to this. And so I said, I'll start playing their songs. I said, you got to go.
Starting point is 00:55:13 I don't even know who the black keys are. Still don't know who they are. Come on. We got to go the black keys. Do you want to hear it? I was like, I don't even know who they are. She's like, I'm going to bed. I'm going to bed.
Starting point is 00:55:23 And she goes to bed. I was like, well, I'm going to go to the show then. I got to go so you don't get in trouble. And she's like, but then the tickets are under my name. I was like, I'll take your ID. Give me your ID. And I take her ID and I go to the hard rock. And I walk up to the ticket window.
Starting point is 00:55:38 I'm here to pick up tickets. All right, is she with you? Yeah, she's in my back pocket. I'm like, yeah, she's in my wallet. No, she's not with me. She's drunk. She's passed out in the room. Sorry, we can't give you the tickets.
Starting point is 00:55:53 What? I mean, if she's not with you, we don't know that, I mean, how do we know that you didn't mug her in the parking lot and steal her ID? How did I know that she would have tickets here at Wilco? That's exactly what I said. Drunk you thinks the same. I said. Still logically? I'm like, how would I know that some woman in the parking lot had tickets to this concert?
Starting point is 00:56:13 Of nobody I've heard of. Yeah, I don't even know who this band is. This thing won't even sell out. And they're like, sorry, I can't give them to you. I was like, all right, I'll show you guys. I'll just walk in. So drunk me? Put her ID in the wallet.
Starting point is 00:56:26 Put my wallet in the back pocket. Kind of walked over where the entrance was. Waited until someone was checking someone's tickets. Boom. Beeline it. Right in there. You showed them. Then I got grabbed.
Starting point is 00:56:39 Excuse me, sir. Where are you going? I'm going to the concert. Do you have a ticket? I said, well, my wife has tickets that will call, but they won't give them to me because I'm not her. I have her ID. Sandy. we got this guy here
Starting point is 00:56:55 what do you want me to do? Give him his freaking tickets. What do you want me to do? I'll just go ahead and give him one. Don't give him both of them. Okay, because he's really going to do a lot with two of them. Yeah. It's like, all right, we're going to go ahead and give you one. Go back over to the window. After the break-in? Out of the break-in. They're negotiating with a criminal? Yeah. Instead of throwing me in jail, they give me my ticket. And I go in. I don't know why I'm there now.
Starting point is 00:57:19 And I just thought maybe her work was going to check Will Call to see if the tickets were picked up. I don't know. Sure. Because I'm hammered. I just, my logical thinking is not there. So I watched this show. There's no way you stayed for the whole thing. Oh, I did.
Starting point is 00:57:33 How drunk were you? Really drunk. I was going to say, I would have been two songs like, well, I can squeeze in some blackjack before bed. All right. So I'm hammered. I did my do-do diligence. And I'm like, hi, man. I'm going to go ahead and leave.
Starting point is 00:57:48 The concert's leaving. I'm going to go get a cab back to the cosmopolitan. And that cab line was so. So freaking long. I'll just wait a little bit. I'll play them blackjack. I sit down and play blackjack playing $5 a hand, $10 a hand. Then I get done.
Starting point is 00:58:04 I have all these chips. I'm like, oh my gosh, I won some money. And I go to the cashier. The chips I were playing with were $25 chips. They weren't $5. Sheesh. That's how drunk I was. And then I go back to the cab line.
Starting point is 00:58:18 Still a mile long. Play more. No, I was like, ah. Cosmo's just right there. It's just right there, man. I'm just going to walk. You think it's not far, but. My God, dude, it may have been two miles. And this is December 30th.
Starting point is 00:58:35 Cold. It was 17 degrees outside. I had a short-sleeved shirt on, and I walked my ass from the hard rock all the way to the Cosmo. All because I thought my wife was going to get in trouble with her work for not picking up tickets at Will Call. We'll take a break. I'm right back.

Pretty stupid, huh? Yeah, it's the too much drinking gets you because your wife then feels
Starting point is 01:03:32 guilty because she didn't even go to the show. And then you kind of felt guilty because you just went to a random concert solo instead of probably being some sort of bedside manner, nurturing. Yeah, I don't know. It was just a drunken like, oh my gosh, we have to go. I've got to do this. It was bad, man. And my wife was hung over all the next day. She had to carry a Gatorade bottle with her all day, worried she was going to vomit.
Starting point is 01:03:58 She had to do a meet and greet with the drummer from the red hot chili peppers, and she had to run it. And she had to run out of the room in the middle of it because she thought she was going to vomit. I guess it was a bad day for her.
