If there's one thing I know about this podcast, it's always rolling.

We haven't done this ever before. It's so funny being in your own house at 9.30 at night in your comfy clothes, doing a podcast. This is wildly invasive. I've never put my feet up on someone's... Is this okay? Yeah, it's great. That's actually exactly how Myrtle sits on it. Katie, Dan, Myrtle. Thanks for having us.

Yeah. Is Myrtle okay with what we're about to do here? We're going to find out. We're hoping she kind of just is chill about this. She's been around pot since she was a puppy. Yeah. She does. When Dan goes away and she misses him a lot and somebody in the street smells like weed,

she like reacts to them like, is that dad? It's like, no, it's just another person who smokes weed. That brings us to what we're doing here. We were supposed to do this a while back and then Dan went on a journey of self discovery. I did, I did what a lot of potheads refer to as a tolerance break Where you quit smoking pot? I however had never done one So it was my first tolerance break ever and lasted about two and a half months

Yeah, and here we are so quick recap of Your tolerance break. Yeah, what's the? How was it? How many stars would you give it? Four out of five. There were some things that were lacking, but overall needed to do it, did it, glad I did it. Might do it again, but glad to be back smoking weed. I wanna know about what it was like to end the break

because we're taping this at a time when you have reintegrated into polite weed society. So the first hit I took was with Katie on a holiday weekend and we were, she was like, it's a long weekend. You've done very good the last two and a half months. Have a, You were supposed to break it the next week, but you were going to be on the road.

Yeah. And so you were like, why not just do it here? So I had a hit. We love watching Pierce Brosnan's James Bond movies because they're horrible. They did not age well. How dare you speak upon Goldeneye in such a fashion. I thought so too. And then I watched them. I was like, my goodness. Go watch Tomorrow Never Dies. They're fun. They're certainly fun. When he bites What's-Her-Face.

Zanya on a top? Or is that? No, I'm thinking of Terry Hatcher. Yeah. When he bites her lip. While they're kissing. Wild. Such a passionate kiss.

Wild. I missed you. So I took a hit and we watched Tomorrow Never Dies and it was beautiful. It was very fun. And then I went and got my haircut. Oh my God. Oh my God.

Got out of getting a haircut and noticed that, oh, this is usually when big Jay and the Bonfire Boys are hanging outside serious. And I called him. He's like, yeah, come and hang out. And Jay has these joints that are little mini joints dipped in keif. You ever seen these? They're like joints dipped in more joints. And you're like, I don't think. We heard you like joints. So we put joints dipped in keif. You ever seen these? They're like joints dipped in more joints and you're like, I don't think.

We heard you like joints, so we put some joints in your joints. Exactly. And then we put more joint in the joint and then rolled it in joint. And Jay was like, hey, you smoked this joint. I was like, I'm kind of back. I'm back.

And I smoked a whole joint with him in front of Sirius. And then they were like, all right, we're going upstairs. And I was like, oh no. And I had a very scared subway ride back here. And I came in the house and immediately went, Katie, it happened so fast, but I'm real fucked up. He came in and he was like, I was smoking like I used to smoke. And then they left.

And all of a sudden I'm on the train and I realized I'm alone. And I'm very, very high. You looked very, you came in like the world had just happened to you, it was very scared. It was nuts. When was the last time you had felt like that? High school. Before then. High school or college.

I got high around 430 and I was high the rest of the day without smoking anymore. I was just like, smack. And wasn't, on some level, wasn't that glorious though? It was, I went through so many emotions. First off, I got my haircut. Getting high and looking at it. Yeah, what's a stoned haircut?

You just go, no, no, no, put it all back. But then I got here and I was like, I'm gonna take a shower, because a high shower rules. Yeah, oh yes. And we ran out of hot water. Unless you need to high shower rules. Yeah, and we ran out of hot water Unless you need to shave your legs Yeah, and it was it was a good shower until the water went cold and then it sucked. Yeah, but it was great overall Experience seven out of ten nice. Don't know if I'd do it again because of the subway ride

I didn't know which I'm so high to know which arm to grab the bar with I was like, does this look normal? I just started, just started palming the ceiling. Or you don't know when to move when people get off the subway and how to get back into your position. It's a delicate dance that you forget. And then when you're high, you see all the steps. So he's back.

I'm back. Which means that we can do the thing that I'd wanted to do when I learned you were on this journey of self discovery. Hence the bag of Cheetos and pizzas in the kitchen. Yes. Your magical satchel next to the chair. I promise this magical satchel next to your chair,

because we've traveled America, literally, on a quest of finding out which athletes have sponsored weed that should be evaluated and reported upon. He has our favorite in his hand already.

I think we should yes, okay, like a like when cops see it We'll take a bust photo. Yeah, that's right. So we begin. Yeah, the best one Gary Payton my favorite strain of wheat weed. Outside a golden goat is Gary Payton. So I guess what we'll do on this episode is we will sort of introduce these things one by one and we'll sample them in ways that are definitely legal.

Well, we know Gary Payton. Yeah. So maybe we could do that last as we know it is very good. Yes, yes, yes, yes. And how many weeds do you have? How many weeds? We're gonna smoke 18 weeds? Have you guys ever had... This?

So this is a cannabis pre-roll on the label. Magic Johnstoned. Magic Johnstoned. Love the parody. And so he has signed off on that? Undoubtedly not. Okay. I thought these were like the athletes are cool with it. I assume Gary Payton is cool with Gary Payton. Yeah, I believe so. I believe so. I don't know if Carmelo Anthony has co-signed this. Mellow. It better be an indica. It is a hybrid. Huh. Here's the deal. For those of you that don't know about weed, Sativa is a head high, Indica is a body high.

Indica tends to be more mellow, hence why you would call it mellow. Have you guys seen Pac-Man Jones weed? Now I know Pac-Man signs off on this because it's through cookies. Yes, correct And he has a whole like graphic on the top an illustration where he's holding up Bags of weed. I tell you right now That might be the one I'm most excited for So I think we should start with Pac-Man. This is oh, this is what we have I thought you had like so much more. Oh, we have a list of things that we tried to get. Oh, okay

We're thank this makes me feel so much better. This whole time I thought we were doing like 17 of these. I was very worried. I was gonna prepare the bed for Katie just to land in at the end of the bottle. This isn't gonna go well for me. I don't smoke that much weed throughout the night. I like to smoke weed at night,

but I usually do like a hit or two and then I'm good for an hour or two. And then maybe I'll take another hit if we're doing a Rocket League tournament. Yeah, smells good. Smells good, guys. He's told me, he's convinced me that if it smells good to you, it won't give you a bad high.

If you don't like the smell of it, it will give you a bad high. But if you like the smell of it, you'll be fine. That's an old stoner myth, but I've gone by that since I was a wee boy. That's why we got rid of that. One of them was named after a perfume once, and you were like, get that out of the house, I do not like it.

This is one of those rules, like how Dan thinks that vase and vase are two different things. No, this isn't. These are the things that under our roof, Pablo, you just have to accept are the way that things are. Number one, vase and vase was just information given to me Sir, I have spent my Malcolm Gladwell 10,000 hours smoking marijuana bunk theory as I have put in the reps For marijuana the vase vase thing. That's just some bulls pull out the back of my head this

It's pretty shaky science, but it's still, it's science. We still go by it. Myrtle, what do you think? She loves Pac-Man. She's just to be clear, we're not, the dog's not doing any drugs. No. Don't call PETA. Definitely not. She's just here.

She's on her own drugs, actually. But if you see some of the dogs that she hangs out with at the dog park, say she kinda had a joint in her corner of her ear the whole time. They think she's cool. She wants to do it for the dogs at the park. That's right.

So we're starting with Pac-Man? We're starting with Pac-Man. But I do want to give a special shout out to some strains that I wanted to get for you. Honorable mention. Yeah, Michael Phelps OG. I like that because that guy's lung capacity is incredible and he also pushes therapy, which means he's been- You're gonna say he's depressed, so-

That's what I mean. Yeah. Mentally, he's been places that I'm like, where's your weed like? I would like to see Michael Phelps hit a gravity bong. Yeah, I bet he could clear it. Peyton Manning. What the f***? No.

So according to the summary, it popped up around 2013 when he was with the Denver Broncos. Yeah. It was reportedly a cross between ChemDog91 and San Fernando Valley OG. Okay. But it's just super rare. Did he mean anything to you?

Super rare. It's super rare to get that? Apparently. Do you wonder if Payton's got it, like at home? He's like, do you want something hard to find Peyton Manning weed? I bet Peyton Manning litigated the intellectual property behind Peyton Manning. Oh yeah, absolutely. I bet it helped his neck too.

He'd be like, I could throw a football. So Ricky Williams has something called the Heisman. That's the weed. I mean, we should be doing that. Why aren't we smoking that? That's the weed you want. You want the guy that his career took a hit, because he was taking hits, but you want the Ricky. Ricky Williams is probably, that is our ideal.

And The Heisman's a great name. It's a great name. Yeah, what happened? Why couldn't you get that? Journalistic integrity. So Ricky Williams is a friend of Metal Arc Media. And so we said we cannot, like, much like a show, It's a great name. Yeah. What happened? Why couldn't you get that? Journalistic integrity. So Ricky Williams is a friend of Metal Arc Media. And so we said we cannot play, like much like a chef who's friends with, you know, Pete

Wells at the New York Times, you gotta draw boundaries. Like it would be unfair for me to appraise his product. I'm not his friend. So you could have brought that with you. Yeah, me and Kenny, I have never met him. And I want to try regular sweet. I don't see why that's happening. That feels kind of like a selfish decision.

It's okay, but we let you into our home. That's the difference between you and me. Feels like you could have left us with a little bit of Heisman. Yeah. As like a parting gift. You could have been like, hey, I'm getting out of here and go like this. Take that. Oh, that would have been great.

That would have been great. Next time we should script your entrance and your exit. Yeah. In the apartment. This and your exit. Yeah. This is called journalism. Yeah. Well, I hate it. So the one that I have been hunting for that I could not find, but I did do reporting around

is Linsanity OG. I mean that is... So Linsanity OG, which popped up in 2012 in California during Linsanity, I first saw it because Rick Ross had posted a photo of it on Instagram. And I've been tracking it ever since. I know this for a fact. Jeremy, Jeremy Lin, I reached out to him, he had litigated this. He had wanted this to not be called No Sanity OG for copyright reasons. And so

I ended up emailing a rapper, Stally, former college basketball player himself. He was tagged into Rick Ross Instagram. And so I asked him for a review of it. He said, it's an OG, so it's strong, but it tastes clean and sweet. Gives you a heavier high, so it'll have you stuck for a minute. But once it sits with you for a while, it brings out the creative juices that allow you to work diligently. Whoa. Good write-up. Really good write-up.

I know. And he did not make a joke about how it only lasts for like two weeks and then it gets real bad. Nice. Which I appreciate it. Nice. So I think we should... Start with Pac-Man.

Start with Pac-Man. So what are the rules here? Okay, well so we smoke usually. We lean out the window of our office. The New York City apartment, the window only opens so much. Enough to get your head out of the window to blow it out. And you blow the smoke out because we don't want to get kicked out of our apartment. We like it here.

But we're going to load a bowl of Pac-Man. Each of us take two hits. Yeah. See how we're going to load a bowl of Pac-Man. Each of us take two hits. Yeah. See how we're feeling. We have the capability. I suggested that we play Rocket League, because that's when I know if my high is hitting. And we have the ability to do that here.

So it's an option. We do. That will be a six-hour podcast. We're doing a weed quadrathlon. Do we want to vote on order right now? I feel like... Snake draft? I figure we go Pac-Man, Magic Johnstone, Mellow, Clothes with the Glove. Yeah. Because we know how good Gary Payton is. We know it's gonna fit. It... Lockdown. Let's go smoke this Pac-Man Jones.

Okay. Myrtle's like, and I'm gonna take a nap. Yeah. A nap, Man Jones. I really enjoyed that. I can tell. Yeah. That's not what you want to hear. Yeah Here's the Myrtle pipe Myrtle pipe rules the pipe is zoom in on it. Can you guys zoom in?

There's so many cameras in this tiny apartment right now. Very overwhelming. You guys can see you guys get the shot Loved it tastes really good. Yeah, I like it. I like it quite I'm really sorry for my behavior in this podcast. The eating on Mike, I would hate it too. I'm really sorry. That was the right move though, right? You have to understand I'm in my apartment and I'm really high. And that was what I was supposed to do.

And also- That was the assignment. I understood it. It's for health reasons. For brain health reasons. You're eating. Yeah. You don't want to meet the Katie that is not,

hasn't had any food. Violent. And you tie on nice weed. Just violent. No. I know, it's fine. Usually I curl up into a tiny ball. So violent.

And then they're like, so Katie's in bed. Yeah, what are the stages that you're afraid of? We come back from the third one and we go, okay, so we're on cry patrol. Where's cry patrol in the terror alert scale of Katie Nolan I don't really cry. I don't cry unless I'm like having a bad one and that's happened maybe three times to us Yeah, we've been together for five years and I've only seen her have a bad one once I'm trying not to chew in the mic No, you see me twice. Definitely

But I would were you out once That was in Nashville. That was nuts. Where do you go bad-wise? Yeah, so I- Let's do this. Let's get high and talk about when it goes bad. It's always the best way to make sure it goes good. Here's a question that I think Pac-Man Jones will inspire.

When does like the Notes app come out? Oh, that's if Dan's in the other room, playing a video game that I've already annoyed him a couple too many times. I've already come in and gone, hey so I was thinking about and he's like trying to I don't know whatever it is you do. College football, put pants on wrestlers. Maybe, maybe pants on wrestlers. Maybe I'm trying to get it. The amount of times I've watched him be like putting highlighters in a wrestler's hair. What? That's what? Wait, wait, wait. What?

You can customize your wrestler and he loves Kenny Omega. and be like putting highlighters in a wrestler's hair. You can customize your wrestler and he loves Kenny Omega. And so there was a game that did Shinappi. Am I embarrassing you? You're talking about one time. Yeah. Because you talk about it like I mean they're obsessively doing this. One time that I came out and he was putting highlights in Kenny Omega's hair.

I'm just saying what happened. And it was Seth Rollins in the shield. No, it was absolutely Kenny Omega. I watched him stress over this Kenny Omega's hair. I'm just saying what happened. And it was Seth Rollins in The Shield. No, it was absolutely Kenny Omega. I watched you stress over this Kenny Omega. Yeah, because that guy's gonna take you from me. He is. Anyway. The press bout machine. If I've gone into Annoy Dan,

if I feel I've gone into Annoy Dan too much, then I'm like, nah, in this thought, I shouldn't let it go. That's when the notes app comes out. Cause that's when I'm like, maybe later, when I don't have anything to say to Dan I'll tell him this like I ever open my notes app later looking to tell you stuff But there's a lot in there what happens when you die to your notes app is like legally is it go to Dan? It's a thing you type into your notes app. What what I don't know that when you die

I think legally they can't go through your notes app. Can you? I think so. You're going to want to. Okay. So there's good stuff. I think there is good stuff in there. I also think there's garbage in there. But some of the best stuff that I've ever done is in my notes app. You're just going to see a lot of premises that are like, I'm glad this never saw the

light of day. I doubt it. I bet if you went back and looked at your notes app, you'd be like, I'm glad this never saw the light of day. I doubt it. I bet if you went back and looked at your notes app, you'd be like, there's a premise that I should absolutely be. I do it all the time, there never is. It's always just like, what is this? What is this?

I do it every now and then, and when I do, I get a couple good ones, and then the rest I'm like, you thought you needed to write that down. Yeah, because your high brain is like, let's put this somewhere. I'm not always high though. But it's the breaker of writer's block for me. OK.

Which is- Every weed? It's like a shower or walk around the block or it's like looking at something from a different angle. Yeah. And- It does do that. And that same guy is also potentially like a really bad generator of ideas that only

the other guy can really validate. It's like it fires the bouncer, I feel like. So that like more gets out, and a lot of times you were stopping yourself from letting out the thing that was the idea you needed to get to, but you were also stopping a bunch of bad ideas, and those are also coming through. I always want to correct my behavior.

After I get high, I was like, I was a dick earlier when I just drank coffee and was fired up saying ideas. I want to go back and edit my old self and be like, hey, you need to calm down. But then sometimes I smoke weed and I go, everyone's mad at me. I should probably get out of here. Everyone's mad.

Which is crazy because I bet if you polled every single person who's ever met or even just perceived Dan, if they're mad at him, there would be, I'd be shocked if 1% was. That's very good weed. This weed rules. It's really good, man. This weed rules.

I would tell you, it's really good. Leave this weed. I love, uh... Katie just dropped me with a finger gun. Drop the weed, Pablo. This stays here. I love the Gary Payton, so I'm not surprised that I like Pac-Man, because it's done by cookies.

They seem to have their **** together. Cookies as a brand. And again, this is why the journalistic integrity is so important, Katie. You're like, why? Why are you yelling at me? I went to J-school. I can't give an honest appraisal of a company if I... Fair enough. This though, no relationship to cookies.

Right. But this illustration... I've never met him. Have you met him? Pac-Man? Yeah. No. All I know of I've never met him. Have you met him? Pac-Man? Yeah. No. All I know of him actually is like TMZ stories about him like fighting people. Ow! At the airport? That was awesome.

At the airport with like plastic bags. Hey! Woo! I know Pac-Man Jones is the man. Because that weed is f***ed up. It's like... It's really good weed. It's almost like how George Foreman, a lot of people just know him for being the grill.

And there's like, yeah, it's a great grill. Which it was a great grill. The fat dripping off, I can't believe nobody thought of that. It timed out perfectly me going to college. Yeah, that is a perfect college. George Foreman walked into a boardroom, like Don Draper, and showed him a protractor. Yeah.

Was he heavily involved in the actual ideation or did he come on afterwards now? I know a whole Kogan story that whole Kogan said they had a choice you do the Trump kiss So we said that objectively weird right like weird behavior that is a unique behavior I think you should catch on I'm gonna I always think that objectively and then then no one ever hears it objectively. So it doesn't, what you're saying- Is it European?

Is that the defense of it? Is there- Is Trump European? No, is that a practice? Because it seems- No, I think it's just a cool new thing to do. Just throw a kiss at someone. Yeah.

Aggressively. From the audience after they praised you. He goes, hey, your car's right here. You go. But the rumor was that they had a choice of the Foreman griller's spaghetti maker, I think. That was like a Hulk Hogan story, which most of the time is found out to be not true.

I don't know if Foreman was like bio picture thing, where he was like, hey, this iron just pressed this chicken, all the fat out of it. And he's like, hey, this iron just pressed this chicken, all the fat out of it. And he's like, George, that's it. The equivalent of the apple falling on someone's head is George Foreman accidentally inventing a sloped grill. I didn't get his Eureka moment. I didn't get to see the George Foreman movie that recently came out.

Oh, I didn't know there was. I didn't know there was one either. George should change his name from Foreman to Poor Man. That hurt. Down goes Frasier! What's my name now, fool? Foreman is the new heavyweight champion of the world. I want to redo the Foreman movie and make it like...

Boxing is the B-story. Exactly. I would love that. George Foreman, the grill maker. Yeah. Instead of the knockout heavyweight. My roommate in my first apartment after leaving home in Chinatown, it was a mouse-infested apartment, in one of the oldest townhouses, like a row house in Chinatown on Bowery and

Pell. And my roommate, Juan, who I love, had a George Foreman grill that he would use virtually every night. And the mice could not have loved it more. Why? Because the smell of some slo-grease sizzling perpetually in an old-ass building. Did they have like a chorus? Was there like a bunch of mice lined up?

Did they come out in a conga line from their little hole? They were doing Newsy's, Newsy's like barrel rolls. Oh wow. Oh wow. That's so fun over each other just for the grill. Yeah man, I had a college roommate leave salmon on the George Foreman grill uncooked. Like he was gonna grill it

and then he like had to go do something and he was just forgetful to remember. Was this your roommate that sold drugs? Yeah. Okay. It makes more sense that way. I'm just picturing a regular guy. How did he get the grill?

I'm like, why would he start without stop? But we just had a Foreman grill and I remember I came home after class or something or like maybe even the comedy club and there was, I was like in the kitchen and I was like, is there something in the George Foreman grill? And I lifted it and it was just this like, you know when salmon goes bad, it gets that like weird green color? Like coming from the outside in and I was like,

so I put it in like a Dwayne Reed bag, like a plastic shopping bag, and I went went and I put it in his room. Oh my God. I hid it in his room for like five days. So, if you're seeing this Amir. Throw another shrimp on the Bobby. Is that a good accent? I don't know. But you should get in on all the UFC 305 action live from the land down under.

That was an Australian accent at DraftKings Sportsbook, the official sports betting partner of UFC.

N.G. dot co slash M.M.A. My argument for the second strain is this. We go smoke a little bit of magic Johnstone. I'm going to grab a slice of pizza.

You two should play Rocket League. The argument for getting to the second strain is that I am now deeply self-conscious about whether I am hosting this in any way. Did you just make the driving noise as if I've never seen anything driven? This is reversed but you're not going to need that. They're about to start playing. You're looking at the wrong. Oh my god No, he can't be me

And they're scored a goal. They're down 1-0 Pablo is can't listen and play video. This is not a You're gonna be alright. Oh, they're gonna get you through it. Also think about the magic Johnstone. You smoked go get it Yeah, there you go. I don't think I took enough of this weed I don't think I smoked enough of it. We each took one big hit. I'm gonna go back for another hit. I took enough of it. Yeah, you did. Pac-Man, we smoked.

Pac-Man, we like had a full bowl. No, because we switched controllers exactly for that reason. Now I realize that. You were on the right side. But now I'm not. Now you're on the left. Now you're Queen Teensy. You're me now.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was good. Did you do that? Iy. You're me now. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh! That was good! Did you do that? I did do that. Oh my God, Pablo! I think I know kung fu. This might start a lifelong obsession with Rocket League.

I mean, Pablo, is this not the greatest? This is pretty good. Once I realized I was on the left, everything made more sense. Which, again, you weren't originally. You were right at first. So when I first started dating Katie, she didn't smoke pot. And she was like, I don't really smoke pot unless I play rocket league.

I guess. What that meant, can I tell you now that we've known each other forever what that meant? I don't have a person to buy weed from. So I only smoke if you're bringing weed. Makes sense. And he brought weed. He brought weed.

So, I love this game. Yeah, this game is. Now that I have a sense of like the physics of this. What's gonna hurt is when you get better at this than me and I've been playing for years. I know, I was thinking the same thing. I was like, what if he learns to fly? Pablo's like, yeah, I'm diamond.

And you're like, I can't even get past the flat. Pablo, also if you're ready for more buttons, square can make you like, it's like a break so you can take a sharper turn. Yep. So if this is a positive review of Magic Johnstone. Yeah, so far. I mean.

Well, I'm interested to get to this Carmelo Anthony weed. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Called Mellow. Just gonna fly off this wall real quick. Oh, Pablo, that's twice. That was so fun though. That was twice you got specifically into my way. That That was twice. There's one minute remaining in my way There's one minute remaining in the game. They're up to I am now. We're up it says it's a

Greenhouse cannabis flower an indica hybrid so it is it is mellow. They are going for the mellow There's 40 seconds left in the game. It looks like Katie and Pablo are gonna take this home Pablo's first inaugural game of Rocket League. Katie Nolan, of course, coming with four goals, a hat trick, she's hat trick Zeta Jones. 10 seconds to go until we move on to Melo. We need to play four seasons against the Bops. You did something incredible. Thanks.

Look at that. Can we, okay so. She hits it off the side of the goal, bounces in front that. Can we, Narek, can you, okay, so what? She hits it off the side of the goal, bounces in front, she gets around, turns herself around, knocks the bot into the ball who then scores the goal. That was, that was a bad ninja. You bad ninja'd them. Yeah, you used their momentum against them. F***ing job.

Mind control. Can I tell you what I like about Mellow just from the looks? It's just little nuggets. They're just like a fun little, hey, he was a nugget. Wow. Mello is just little nuggets. And then he broke my heart. Yeah, you got beef. You got real beef with Mello. It just hurt. If you're a nuggets fan, that hurt. We were waiting for a superstar. We got Carmelo. We went to the 09 Western Conference Finals. Lost because of two key steals from Trevor Ariza. And then you just dismantled the team. You make everyone go everywhere else.

I mean, granted we got some... You got Wilson Chandler. Yeah, we did. I liked Wilson Chandler. He was nasty on NBA 2K. I loved Wilson Chandler. But that completely destroyed the franchise for a couple years. We were on the cusp. Now granted it did lead to us getting Nikola Jokic and then eventually winning a championship. But I will smoke this weed still a little angry at a trade that was forced. When I feel as a Nuggets fan, it wasn't needed.

You didn't need the trade. Timothée Mosgoth. We got Fulton. We got, um, God, we got that whole Knicks team. Yes. You got, you got a team that in New York, we actually, we're kind of sad about losing as much as people loved. Can I tell you the thing that upset me the most? I was waiting tables at the time and they would play this package when Carmelo got traded and it was, I'm coming home.

I'm coming home, tell the world I'm coming home. That whole dramatic thing and it felt like it was just rubbing my face in it where I was like, every time it would come on, I'd be like, oh, he's from Baltimore. Like it was the thing you just, but he was just rubbing my face in it, where I was like, every time he'd come on, I'd be like, oh, he's from Baltimore. Like it was the thing he just, but he was born in Brooklyn, but you're like, man, it hurt.

That trade as a Nuggets fan hurt. That might be the most painful trade of my life. Wow. Yeah, and thanks for letting me smoke weed on it. on it. Took a couple hits. It's an Indica hybrid. It was a good bowl. Tasted good. I would say I enjoyed the taste of Pac-Man, but I also Pac-Man went first. Well, hold on, pause. Taste of the first weed, the marijuana. I'm sorry, Mario. Oh boy, not the Legos. Do you want me to move them?

I can move them. No, we're good. Your Lego television Mario set. I built this and it works. Can everybody see it? Dan, can you roll the? Yeah, it's a wild thing to. Look at that, I've made that.

Come on, give it up for me. Good, he almost, oh, I was just joking. That was so cool, But it broke just then. That was really... Guys, did you really do that? They did. Thank you so much. Okay.

Everything's going to ****. It's all falling apart. I broke it. We'll be all right. We'll get back. Well, where does that go? I don't know. We'll get back to it.

I thought everybody would like that little... That's a good working review of... No, I should have built it better than that. I took it... You guys do a podcast. Let me sit for a minute. What did you think of the Mellow? It's hard to know what, I think I'm susceptible to suggestion right now. Okay.

Dan is leading with authority. Yeah. And I have enjoyed all of the strains we've had so far. The Mellow is definitely the most indica-y. Yeah. And Katie just burped. No, I is definitely the most Indica-y. Yeah. And Katie just burped. No I didn't. Undoubtedly still on microphone. I was over here.

So here's how I would compare and contrast what this is. So this feels like we're not playing Rocket League. This feels like we are... It's kind of... It is nice. It's nice. Cheetos showed up on the table. That's a wild move. Who did that? One of you is a... That's a wild move. Cheeky. One of you is real... It's nice Cheetos showed up on the table. That's a while One of you is a that's a wild cheeky One of you's real chill. I'm gonna get to him. Yeah

Sorry editor for all of it. Actually while we have you yeah for I'm this has been very fun. I'm pretty Yeah, same. Here's my thing because I don't think I've given a single review yet. Um, I'm high, so they're all good. I'm not like noticing once I... Are you guys doing that for the magic of podcasting? The mellow is more of like a... I think I'm just later in my high from the first one. I like this though, it's your fake ASMR though. Keep going off on this. ASMR though, keep going off on this. I believe that Mellow is, it's just, it's probably what should have been the last in so far as it's going to put you to sleep.

You look sleepy. You noticeably look a little, do you want to put your head on a pillow? Dude, please just pan out with just one light on and it's just Pablo on the couch. That couch pulls out if you need it. This is such a comfortable couch. After Dan plays college football, so you noticeably go, well, Pablo can't stay here. Well, of course, he's taking on a five and two Wyoming,

so why don't we just see, why don't we see where that goes? Anybody playing college football that video game knows, yeah, are you playing it? You're counting down, Julio. So you're just waiting for the podcast to end, you're like, yeah, some of us got dynasties at home. That's like the new children. Hey, some of us got to get home to ours. I love it. That's wild. I love it. This game was the

phenomena that it is. It is a genuine phenomenon. It's worth it. All the weight of having to wait for college football to come out Thank you. What a what a payoff. It's been awesome. Okay, your game froze like four times yesterday But very mad at it. So maybe we don't act like it's the greatest thing that's ever happened I think about how many tables I didn't break and you didn't and they both are still here and they're being used in this It was the number one reason I was worried. was gonna lose one, because I'm like, we're doing a podcast here. But it's been frustrating.

The game is a little glitchy, and it'd be nice if they- I had a game with Texas that was going to overtime, and then it just shut down. The entire game shut down, and my childlike reaction of sadness made me think I was gonna lose my fiance because I went, no, no. Like an unfair childlike thing, like hey, no.

We were about to go to overtime, but we were. My freshman quarterback was cooking. Do you understand that? Not just thinking and dunking. I'm talking about 41 yard shots, dude. Are you like doing back shoulder passes? I learned how to throw now. I was doing classic throw.

Now I have it where you can put touch passes. Yeah, there's some throw. You're feathering, you're feathering that. I got a tight end that is just. Top notch. He's eating this season. He's a senior. He's just eating.

So now what he'll do is he'll come out and go in case something goes wrong because it's it's re-cancelled. My running back has 200 yards in the first half. It was insane. It was nuts. It'll give me a stat line and be like just in case something goes wrong you should know this kid really had a great run. In case the game freezes again and he's like he like files it with me like it's history. In case anything happens in there, four carries. I was kicking the s*** out of Oregon State, at Oregon State, in Corvallis, and I come out going, hey, if this game gets shut down, I'm f***ing putting one on him right now and

my running back has 13 carries for 226 and three touchdowns in the first half. And I'm going to run him a lot in the second half. And thank God, what happened is it was shutting down so much I deleted the game and redownloaded it. And that worked. And so far so good. CSU's already a three star program. We're number two in the country.

Two in the country. I mean, really, this podcast ends and a dynasty begins. I'm gonna move on. It's playoff, I'm going to move on. It's playoff. I want to get to the playoffs. It'll mean a lot to the city of Fort Collins and our Board of Regents. Now, do we smoke some Gary Payton and do the SNL goodbye? We stand there with Myrtle.

Myrtle comes out. And we're just like, I want to thank so many people. I want to thank Cookies. I want to thank Pac-Man Jones and Gary Payton I want to thank Magic Johnson who probably doesn't even know this product exists. And now that he does it's probably not gonna exist anymore Sorry Lauren Lauren Lauren, of course

Gary Payton rules if you can't tell. It's the classic. It's so good. I've sought it out because it was something of a legendary thing. And plus, like now like there's a Larry Bird stream, but it's like 33. There are like lots of references now. Okay, so it's 33% THC. That feels high.

The marketing should require the accurate percentage. His face tells me you came up with a good idea. That was not the idea. Yeah, the Gary Payton's like kind of like just, when you come back to it, you're like, damn, you are very. I don't know if it's just in my head, it tasted good. I was like, mm, mm-hmm. Yeah, the Mellow was, the mellow I felt,

I felt probably the most, like in my body. I don't know, I'm talking like an idiot. No, no, no. No, you're not. Yes, most palpably different was mellow sitting in the couch. Yeah, I just know stuff. I would explain it in stoner terms. Like with the Pac-Man, I really wanted pizza funny, I think it's funny. I mean, I think it's funny, I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny.

I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny.

I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny.

I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it's funny. I think it there? They were all good. Yeah. I don't have a negative thing to say. I don't think I smoked enough of Magix because I was like, Hey Katie, this is going to be a lot of weed in a short amount of time. Maybe on the second one, when they take two, you take one, just one this time. So I don't know if nothing happened, but I never felt bad.

And so nobody gets a ding in their record. And as much as me, lady who doesn't know anything about weed and doesn't smoke all the cool weeds, these ones are all okay. Thank you for bringing all this great weed to our house. How much of it stays, would you say? Because you don't want to get caught carrying this much. You could get in some real trouble. Also, people got cell phones on them and they could call the cops.

But it's very funny that you showed up with a bunch of weed and we smoked it. This is how it should be. You're the best dealer I've ever had, I think is what I'm saying. Typical dealer, comes over, smokes some of it, eats some of your food, plays your video games. Won't leave. This is a story. Records everything you do and publishes it as a podcast.

Guy's probably wearing a wire. I sense microphones in the room. I don't know, man. Call it the weed, but I'm paranoid. We're being recorded. I feel like I'm being watched. Are you guys stealing my weed? Yeah.

We're not, you're not leaving with one of them. Some of it is staying back. And if you want to fight that, I wouldn't recommend it, but you could. Myrtle can get vicious. If I say, sick him, she'll come lick you and see if you want to take her, if you have any treats. Yeah, that's true.

I love when dog owners have like a like foreign word that summons their dog. Oh yeah. Oh like, yeah like something in German. Yeah, umgade! Yeah, and it's just there like a police dog. Right, because it has to be something that no one else would say. It's got to be like her Manchurian candidate word. Yeah, her activation. Yeah, right.

Ours is the T word. No, that's just a word that she physically, her ears will go from like, I'm a cute dog to like, I'm the cutest doggy I've ever seen in your whole life. She get little pigtails and she's like, oh my God, you should give me a treat. And it works sometimes on mostly him. Yep.

Cause she gets so cute. But I'm like, damn, you really know that word. I didn't train you that word, but we said it and you knew what came right after it. So you'll simp for it. And she does. She does. This weed is good.

If we're picking, are you telling us to pick one? I'm telling you to- It's hard not to. I'm loyal. I'm a loyal b***h. Deal. So I would pick Gary Payton, who reliably always gets me f***ed up, including the time that he handed me a pint glass of Jack Daniels with a straw and ice in it.

That's the real Gary Payton. It's real Gary. He was asking people what they wanted to drink and his eyes got to me and I was like, I don't think I was supposed to be in this group. But I said, uh, me? And he said, yeah. And I said, I'll take like, I don't know, Jack Daniels. I panicked thinking he'd get me like a, I don't know, Jack Daniels. I panicked, thinking he'd get me like a Jack and Coke

or like a Jack Daniels. And he turned around with a pint glass with ice. And it was like, I don't know, it was dark where we were. So I thought like, maybe this is just a tall Jack and Coke. I took a sip and I was like, that is Jack Daniels. It was just a pint glass, ice, Jack Daniels. Gary Payton thought you had a problem. I was like, sh-

Gary Payton was like, sure tiny lady, someone get Jack Daniels. Gary Payton thought you had a problem. I was like, shit. Gary Payton was like, sure, tiny lady. Someone get eyes on her. She might be a little bit of an issue later. He's drinking a pint glass of Jack Daniels. Thanks, Gary Payton. They call you the glove. They call you the glove.

They call me the boot. He's kicking with the dick. Dude, I love Gary Payton being like, Katie Nolan f***ing drinks, dude. And Gary Payton, you make fantastic, lovable weed. Yeah, I would say Pac-Man is a close second, but- That was a good start. The element of surprise.

I didn't expect Pac-Man to be on par. It's just, man, I'm going to destroy whatever's left in that kitchen Cheetos pizza-wise. We haven't made one of those yet. You're going to make a Cheetos pizza? No. I understand where the confusion is. What I meant is, whatever stands in front of me, I destroy. Okay.

Basically a food terminator. So it was Cheetos slash pizza-wise? Yeah. Okay. Basically a food terminator. So it was Cheetos slash pizza wise? Yeah, it's probably gonna go Cheetos, pizza, Cheetos, land the plane, regroup. Van Leeuwen? Swiss cake roll. Oh, that's right, that's right, that's right.

Oh, we should make you eat that, like a bite of it. Yeah. Ken's like, no, we should save it. It's so good and you're high, so I think you'd really like it. You gotta give Pablo a piece of that. Please don't good and you're high. So I think you'd really like it. Please don't. No, of that Swiss roll.

Why has everything gotta be sexual to you guys? Please let. Also with this background. You gotta give Pablo a piece of that. It's wild. Piece of the Swiss roll. Man, this sucks now. This absolutely sucks.

Disagree. No, of that Swiss roll. God damn it, I'm going to fight this whole room. I've never thought I'd have to John Wick my way out of my apartment. And the dog's still alive. So that is a win-win. This is a Swiss cake roll from a restaurant called Cafeteria. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, Cafeteria.

This f***ing rules. Red velvet Swiss cake roll. Ah, just feed it to the make-up. Yeah, you just eat it, yeah. That's good stuff. Yeah, there wasn't anything specific. Oh, you're supposed to decode it. Then eat it.

Oh, you didn't unroll it and lick the inside out? Well, now that's poison. Good job, Pablo. Yikes. Is it cutting up low fish the wrong way? Yeah. Oh, you've just cut through the skin? Well, we're all dead.

Can I tell you what though? This is a great front row seat of watching someone eat that Swiss cake roll high. And you know what? It wasn't just Pablo. It was Magic Johnson. It was Gary Payton, Pac-Man Jones, Carmelo Anthony. It was all of you guys.

You were all there. That's really good. Isn't that nice? Life is good. You know? That's one of the things that when we are taking it, we both look at it together and go, look at where we live, look at our life. We are eating.

It was delivered to us, a Swiss cake roll. I suspected that. It's the greatest moment of my life. We could get whatever we want right now and we don't want a lot. It's like a speech at the end of a movie. What I want is sitting right here next to me. Thanks for getting us high dude. Yeah dude. What I found out today is that athlete weed is not good because of the strain or because of the illustration of a Pac-Man Jones holding plastic bags full of

weed. It's because of whatever dessert that was that I just ate. This has been Pablo Torre Finds Out, a Meadowlark Media production. And I'll talk to you next time.
