Hey!
We're-
Thanks.
Thanks for having me.
You know.
Yeah.
I need a place where I can get one of those hoops that it's hard to score in.
Okay.
Or maybe like a bearded lady.
Like I would like to have the bearded lady at home, but I don't want to own her, so I'll
just lease her.
So do you have a place where I could lease fair stuff?
Yes, yes.
Fair lease, snobby dog, Dan.
It took me a minute. Yes, fair lease. I'm like, yes. Fare lease snobby dog, Dan. Took me a minute.
Yes, fare lease.
I'm like, that's not what's written here.
So I wanted to make sure.
Fare lease.
Farelease.org is where you.
You don't lease fare equipment there?
No.
No, you can't get a ferris wheel.
No, but what you can do, you could
lease your next vehicle from fare lease at farelease.org
and have them deliver it to you at the fare.
Why is it called fare then?
At least let me finish the thing. They can deliver it to you at the fair. Why is it called fair then? At least let me finish the thing.
They can deliver it to you at the fair.
See, I thought I was setting them up for an easy like thing.
They'll treat you fair.
They'll deliver it to the fair.
He's got a case of the Mondays.
They'll take you to enjoy some local fair.
I think Danny from Fair Lease would enjoy this spot.
It's FairLease.org.
I do love it.
But this guy.
Yeah.
The Dumbs.
The Dumbs.
The Dumbs.
Now, do you ever go sleep in the extra room?
Like, okay, I want to not sleep with someone tonight.
And just let the two ladies be together.
Sure.
If I'm gone for business, she steals my spot on the bed.
Yeah.
So as far as like...
I've never been this hard. P.T.
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright. Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright.

This is a Monday edition of The Dumb Zone.
On today's program are friends from Scenario.
Scenario. scenario who will really be around for a intense closing remarks so what do you
have like a you can pull a mic over there you're giving away
Cowboys season tickets we're giving away for one game the season tickets the
four seats that we have okay for one game the season tickets, the four seats that we have.
Okay.
For one game and the parking pass.
Oh, you're giving away Cowboys tickets for a game.
For four.
For four.
So you have season tickets.
We do.
As a company.
What game is it?
Whatever game you want.
So there's eight regular season games next year you pick.
What if somebody wants the preseason game? Whoa! Wow! Eight regular season games next year you pick. You talking about if you want to go see...
What if somebody wants the preseason game?
Well, I mean...
They just don't like the intense pressure of a regular season.
That would make sense.
That might be...
They really like to see backups and...
Hang zone Austin Guttery requesting the live call in bed.
When I watch preseason football, they always say, hey, these are really intense because
these guys are fighting for that last position on the roster.
But they do a huge number.
Yeah, that's why Moose, Moose Johnston always assures me.
This is one of the best games I could be tuned into.
We'll start productions.
You could go-
So at the end of today's show, we'll hear about how to win these tickets in a bit you
guys are doing.
In a bit? A March Madness bit. Whoa. That's upon us. They're great seats. Also on
today's program, Jimmy Nelson. He'll be showing up in a little bit. He's our comedy friend.
Go over to the empty seat.
It's your birthday. Oh, it's my birthday.
That's why Adam's here.
40 and holding S, right.
Adam, he's one of those guys
that just shows up on your birthday.
I like it.
He doesn't show up.
Whereas every day, I treat every day
as like Adam Romo's birthday.
Yeah, just gotta live it.
Yeah, so Eatsy's brought tons of food for you guys.
No one has touched it yet except Jake, right?
Mm-hmm.
I plan my day accordingly.
We hope that you guys will dig into the food.
To be honest with you.
I think you over-brought mayonnaise, but I'm not sure.
It looks like there's about 400 mayonnaise packets in there.
You can never have too much.
Really?
Yeah.
I think that's mustard, I think. But mayonnaise, I remember at the Hab, always available.
I like the mayo mustard mix.
I like the mayo anything mix, bud.
Really?
Yeah. Because I've told you, they're fancying up mayo on us now. That's a good world to live in.
It's chili mayo.
Um, and they brought a king cake.
So before you got here, a lot of king cake discussion.
Cause I'd never knew anything about a king cake until like I was at a
neighborhood party a few weeks ago. As you will do. Yeah. And they had a king
cake and then the ladies were explaining to me how there's like a baby in one of
the cakes or something. Like I think it's it's kind of like one of those
Twilight Zones where they're mixed. Apparently they chop a baby up and put it in the king cake.
And if you taste that piece, there's baby meat in there.
Then you get good luck or something, right?
Or you have to make a cake the next year.
I don't know.
Yeah, they're super, super valuable now,
especially down there since Louisiana outlawed abortion.
So they're like, they're having trouble getting ahold
of the little babies.
What is it? Does something, a chrome, the the adrenochrome yes that's a very good
pizza gate knowledge the children's blood that Hillary drinks flows
throughout that cake yeah that's why she looks so young and great I guess
shouldn't we give it to say someone else does that like don't put it on Hillary
yeah like put it on an old like a hot old
like your fat doctor yeah hey don't say this is the guy that has the key to
longevity yeah that's true she's very powerful though but no I like Adam Romo
might drink children's blood he looks great people with money can stay I don't
have enough money to be part of that but I have enough money now to know what people with money do.
It's a lot. It's a lot, dude.
But it works.
But anyways, yeah, I don't know if it's common, the King cake, or if I just know it because of the Cajun wife.
But I was a little surprised Blake had never heard of this.
Everybody says New Orleans. It's New Orleans a bit.
Mardi Gras girl Cajun and I guess they sell them now at eatsies and they're flying off the shelves
So go to eat sees how's the baby supplies that just from a logistic standpoint keeping the babies at eatsies
Well to get them for the cake. Yeah
Yeah
Yeah, how much are tiny?
So did you order like a thing with a thousand little tiny plastic babies?
Yeah.
Yeah.
How do you get the baby?
Okay.
I gotta be careful with my jokes.
Oh yeah, that's right.
Now he's-
Somebody's not quite as in the text, Adam Romo, as he is. He's appearing as CEO of a company here.
Not as Adam, not Adam Friend.
Right.
Does my wife know what I do for a living?
Let's answer it.
Oh, answer it, answer it.
No, this could be fun.
Yeah, let's talk to her.
I don't think it would be fun.
Come on, come on, come on.
I really don't.
Do it, do it, scenario, scenario. We're gonna step into something. Scenario, scenario.
We're gonna step into something.
Yes?
Hey!
I don't think that's gonna happen.
Hey!
Happy birthday indeed.
Thank you, Kathy.
You know what I do for a living?
Thank you, Kathy.
Can you hear the background singers here?
So, did you feel bad that you didn't say that when you woke up this morning?
She was busy.
Yeah, she was busy down there.
Yeah.
Under the covers.
Waking me up in that special way.
Yeah.
By coughing, showering and waking me up.
Oh yeah, there it is. There it is, lovebug. Okay, goodbye.
Bye, Kathy!
Alright.
Well, that was a treat.
Was it?
Happy birthday, bud.
Hey, thanks, man.
See? He really does have a wife that actually loves him.
I guess.
Where are we?
What are we doing now?
We could do some weekend check if you want.
Okay.
We were off Friday, which is great.
Do you know who that's brought to us by?
I can flip back over here and tell you,
probably Fair Lise.
Or excuse me, EliteRidesDFW, the opposite of last time.

How about a Jimmy Nelson comedy show Thursday night?
That sounds great.
Take Elite Rides.
Oh wait, you know what?
Let me just give you this little bonus for Elite Rides. Okay. Because I put this in the copy sheet. I got an email this week that said,
if you need more material for your Elite Rides ad read, we were coming home from the airport at
10 p.m. Our driver offered to make a food stop. So off to Taco
Buena we went for a late night dinner, extra party burritos for the kids lunches the next
day. Talk about service that goes the extra mile. Taco Buena was not right off the highway,
but they just offered. So they're contracted to just take you from A to B. And it's not
like a time thing, right? Sure. So then all of a sudden he's like, hey, you want to stop off and get some food?
This guy got home a half hour later, but that's how cool they are at Elite Rides.
844ride.dfw.
Now, that does bring up an interesting topic.
I've thought about this and never brought it to you guys.
Putting leftover in your kids lunchbox?
Jimmy Nelson is here. Hello everyone.
Right on time.
The great Jimmy Nelson.
Municipal firefighter regional comic or something.
Man About Town.
Yes.
So they mentioned that they went out,
probably did a little imbibing themselves,
they're going by Bueno on the way home,
little drunk food, and they're like,
you know, we should grab a few party burritos
for the kids' lunches tomorrow.
That seems genius, but I don't know
that I've ever thought to do it.
Like just stick some food in there.
They don't have a microwave.
Yeah, they don't?
You don't have a microwave at school?
You don't have access?
Pitcher's Lounge, maybe.
I'm for it.
They can eat at a local bar. Do kids have access to a microwave at school? Yes. We did microwave at school. You don't have access lounge. Maybe I'm for it They can eat out do kids have an access to a microwave at school. Yes, we did it private school
Yes, and you like kindergarten. They have a microwave. They're not like my life works for EMS ISD and
They all have interesting mostly in the lunchrooms
Well, yeah
Oh yeah, I was thinking the library would be a nonsense. Not the bathroom.
Yeah, gotta go to the science lab,
get one of the Bunsen burners on this.
Yeah, put one in the science lab,
then you can put ants in it.
I just feel like that's a parent hack,
to be being taken home and being like,
I'm a little sauced up and I'd like some drunk food.
I'm a little sauced up.
But I'm also a caring parent.
I don't wanna have to make it.
Make the lunches.
Yeah.
That's smart.
Eaty's isn't open after 10 p.m.
So we have to, we'll stop at Bueno.
Otherwise you would go to Eat Seas, of course.
That's right, yes.
I eat every meal there.
Get them like a baby.
Hey Jimmy.
Hey, how you doing?
I don't know.
What are you doing?
Oh, just hanging out, you know.
Just doing comedian stuff?
Trying to.
Firefighter stuff?
Oh yeah.
When was your last firefighter shift yesterday?
I worked Thursday Friday and Sunday
So I thought it was like a certain amount of hours on and then a certain of hours 24 on 48 off
But I got mandatory on Friday where it's periodically they just go do you have plans tomorrow?
Cuz you don't now really that's not overtime not overtime, is it? You get overtime for it.
Okay.
But you don't really have a choice in doing it.
I was leaving my house this morning.
I live in an old neighborhood.
My neighbors are primarily either very old
or younger families that have just moved in.
We get the EMS trip, I would say, every week.
Who?
Within a one block area.
And it's so common that it's weird to me
that they don't really appear to be frantic
or in a hurry, it's just kind of a slow walk.
What's it saying people don't like hearing
is it's your emergency, not ours.
That's kind of what it seems like.
Like all right, well it's a big enough deal
the firefighters are here, but they're not running.
I had a call one time that came in as a CPR for a teenager.
Very serious call, everyone's in a hurry.
And we get in there and it says like,
this mom can't feel her child's pulse.
And we're like, oh shit, bring everybody,
you're all running to the door.
And we walk in and this kid's sitting on the couch
and his mom is trying to feel his pulse
and she just goes, I can't feel it.
And then the son looks at us and goes, she can't feel it.
And we're like, oh well.
She just couldn't find it.
She couldn't find it.
It wasn't that he didn't have a pulse.
Well previously how you worded this
made it sound like a dead person.
Yeah.
So we're gonna skedaddle now.
So it was just the teaching lesson of where to find
the pulse exactly, here's what you do.
Serving and protecting, you know.
Don't use your thumb, right?
Yeah.
Because that.
It has its own pulse.
Yeah.
Unless it's rectally inserted, then you can kind of
get the vibe of the whole thing.
Okay.
How often does that come up?
Periodically.
Really? Surprised. I think I would thing. Okay. How often does that come up? Periodically. Really?
I'm surprised.
I think I would be.
Yeah.
So what are you promoting?
I, on Thursday, I'm headlining the Big Laugh Comedy Club
down in Fort Worth.
It's kind of by Sundance Square,
and it's gonna be a fun time.
It's actually in a comedy club this time.
I saw no problem with the restaurant in Grapevine. I just
cracked me up that they you if you paid for a ticket you got a chair. That seemed
like a thing that should have been on the website. Did you not know had you
never performed there before? Okay. And it was like if you just reserved the free
ticket they're like you can stand in the back. I was like oh that doesn't this
seems like a sitting down activity historically historically speaking. But no, it's gonna be a newer club. It opened like six
months ago. It says here, is it difficult for you to find a place where you can go
that will give you everything you need for an amazing night out? That
apparently is rhetorical because then it says amazing drinks, tons of
laughs, great vibes, incredible service, and affordable prices.
You've turned to the right place.
Big Laugh Comedy Club in Fort Worth is that place.
Yeah, I was reading the description this morning,
and I'll continue.
They not only guarantee the best night,
but you're gonna see one of the best comedians in the game.
Jimmy Nelson, DFW legend.
When did that happen?
I didn't submit the copy.
Is that between the time we saw you last? I saw that line. When did that happen? I didn't submit the copy. Is that between the time we saw you last?
Legend?
Yeah, I've reached legend status in the past three months.
What do you think happened to Gene Hackman?
Gene Hackman?
Ooh, I think murder, suicide, by the dog.
OK.
Yeah.
Little plot twist here.
He puts it in the Christmas card that year
when he sends out his card for the family.
I killed them all.
That's where the admission is.
Yeah, sorry.
I don't know, did they come out with anything on that?
I mean, even if he got murdered, right, he's 95,
so I get that upset about it.
Yeah, ripe old age.
It's interesting, I mean, I guess if I've made it that far,
I probably don't wanna die at the hands of my spouse
no matter what, you know?
Are we fully taking the dog off the table?
I think so.
But is it kids, obviously we're gonna look
into the kids' finances and are they hurt
and need the money right now, they can't wait?
Or was he about to write them out?
I felt bad, you see the TMZ picture of the two daughters.
No.
They went out to breakfast the next morning
and were all smiles.
Like laughing.
Oh, that's tough.
Which, you never know how people feel
and maybe they don't see each other that often.
And this was a cathartic moment for them.
And recounting some of their favorite
shared scenes from the office.
It was cracking one another up.
Yeah.
I saw that the guy who found him, the neighbor came out
and was like, it was like he was, what was it,
Timothy Treadwell documentary?
Grizzly Man?
Yeah, yeah.
And at the end, the director's like, listens to the tape.
He's like, never play this.
Never that whole bit.
The guy that found Gene Hackman, his statement
was like, I'll never discuss what I saw in there.
Oh wow.
Okay, well, it's not Iwo Jima, bud.
Gene Hackman, I know what you found.
It was 95.
The degree to which Gene Hackman was dead.
That's why double autoerotic asphyxiation,
separate door frames.
You always use a spotter, that's a day one lesson.
It's a shame that people have to learn it this way
in such a public manner.
So what, they both kick their separate doors?
Yeah, they both have the belt around the loop
over the door frame, like you'd use a TRX gym.
Okay, like the fans?
Yeah, there's attachments for all sorts of things.
They have made it a lot easier to kill yourself
and your family than Benoit's day.
Like all he had was the Bowflex.
Who's Benoit?
Chris Benoit.
Oh my god.
I already went down a perverted route.
You familiar with the Benoit ball?
Of course.
Okay, that's what I thought.
It was like the originator of that.
Okay.
Benoit Bowflex.
I'm on the same page now.
I know you're, we're about the same age
and you're somewhat wrestling adjacent
So I thought a joke about workout equipment to kill your own family would have landed with you. I apologize Chris Ben wall
Apologies to his estate fun. I don't know if he's still with us or not. Well, he know that was it
He died. Yeah, did he kill his family? Yeah
Man, his response is laughter. He was a wrestler. See he kill his family? Yeah. Man. His response is laughter.
Hey, he was a wrestler.
See me do comedy, I get jokes.
I do jokes, you know?
Anyways.
Again, he's just learning this,
and I understand you're just trying to process it.
It's difficult to take in such a heavy.
Sometimes you use humor to cover up your feelings.
That's right.
It's a big laugh comedy club.
Yeah, picked all the openers. My buddy Dez is featuring, Dez O'Neil. That's right. It's a big laugh comedy club. Yeah, picked all the openers.
My buddy Dez is featuring, Dez O'Neal, he's very funny.
Got a listener of the show, George Brown.
His son, also George Brown, will be doing a little
guest spot, he's an 18 year old, just turned 18.
Wow.
He's in high school currently.
Nice.
And is actually funny, it's not like a, you know,
sideshow thing of just a young person.
He doesn't have cancer.
Yeah, yeah, one of those hacks.
Well, cool.
Congrats, George.
Yeah.
So, George's.
So, my weekend check is very small,
but we were off on Friday from airing a show.
We were very, very busy though, I want to assure you.
Like we had a call and then did some other stuff.
Long call.
It was a long call.
Just ask Blake.
Did that bother you guys too long?
I just thought we kind of needed to cover all those things.
Yeah, no.
Where we discussed our pending trip to San Antonio.
That's a fish now. That's right, we're going to San Antonio
for the final four.
You're all poops heads over here.
The week of, yeah, I can't wait to see
more cat.
Good teams.
Might see Cooper Flag, maybe? Might be hurt. Oh. Can you name?
No. Give me one top five college basketball team. Any team in the top five?
I know Kansas fell out. Tech just beat him. So I'm gonna say I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say Duke. Flag. Duke's gotta be top five.
Let's see.
I can't tell you the last time I looked.
I'm gonna bet.
You're right, Duke is number two.
I'm gonna bet Houston.
Houston's number four.
I'm gonna bet.
You should quit while you're ahead.
Well, I know Gonzaga's fallen off,
but I bet there's still topics. What, I know Gonzaga's fallen off, but I bet there's still times.
What an idiot.
Gonzaga's not even near.
Okay.
Did Alabama beat Tennessee the other day?
Ooh, Alabama-Tennessee, right?
You said that that was a big end of game.
I forgot who won that.
Yeah.
Tennessee five, Alabama six.
There we go.
All right.
Number one, we can't get number one.
Auburn?
Who knew that?
Yeah, way to go. It is Auburn who knew that yeah way to go
Wow, it is Auburn and then Florida number three
SCC
So there you go, but it's San Antonio we got people down there in the surrounding areas
We'll be doing a show down there that Friday. We just don't know where yet. Yeah, hit us up. Yep
Or something. I don't know what are you gonna hit us up for?
Or something. I don't know what are you gonna hit us up for? Um, we'll be down there. Anyway, so Friday
or over the weekend I ran into two dumb zone listeners
in the wild, which I really need to tell you guys about because it isn't like
I recognized them. I just want you guys to understand
that uh... Put a couple numbers on the board for ol' Big Mac.
I'm a big deal out there.
I was recognized Kroger Friday by a dude who got very excited to make the connection and
then we talked real quick and whatever.
But we were being watched by an older lady, older hot. It was like right in that area where you walk in
and walking out and then she was getting her cart.
But so she wanted to watch this interaction.
And then afterwards, kind of had to know, who are you?
Why is this guy all exciting?
Yeah.
Excited to meet you.
And I'm like, ah, I don't, I don't, I don't, it's nothing.
It's like a, and somehow she thought I was like, she, her interaction she took away from
it was like, I was a yoga instructor.
Because he said dumb zone and she thought that he said some other zone that's around there
there's a stretch zone near that yeah yeah so I don't know I think you should
start saying you're Elon Musk do you think because of you kind of have the
outfit down on most days seriously just like the black hat you kind of the tech
we're going dark maga here. Dark maga. Oh yeah.
So then Saturday, I'm of course at the gym
at 24 hour fitness.
And at 24 hour fitness-
Wait, hold on.
What did you tell her?
How did you get at it?
I don't know.
You know how it is.
You've done that, right?
You said dumb zone and then just kind of figured away.
I'm like, no, it's that I'm just with a different,
she want to know why would a guy be excited?
Oh my gosh, I'm seeing you.
I want to meet you, I want to shake your hand.
The only reason I asked is because-
It's hard to describe because I didn't want to tell her
we do a show or-
So it's like, some of them are paid,
but some of them there's ads.
It's like, well, where can I find your show?
Okay, so the reason I say that is when
we used to work at the ticket, that would happen a lot.
And people would say, oh, what is this about?
Like at a wife Christmas party or something.
Somebody would walk up and be like, oh, what it?
And you would say, oh, I work for a radio show
or co-host a radio show with a ticket.
Nine times out of 10, they'd be like, I listen to the fan.
Or at least they've heard of radio. Or they'd be like, I listen to the fan. Or at least they've heard of radio.
Or they'd be like, I've never heard of that.
But this lady, there's no way she's loading a podcast.
No, but in the other scenario, people are very quick.
They want to make sure you know I don't listen to that.
I'm like, I wasn't asking you to listen to it.
But without fail, oh yeah, I tried that once.
I didn't like it.
But if they're 40 or 30, they know what a podcast is.
Hey, I used to work in radio, trying to get a podcast going.
They understand that part.
But I was at my grandpa's nursing home,
and one of his buddies asked me what I did.
No.
I froze.
I couldn't begin to explain.
Used to work in radio, now we do a podcast.
What's it called?
It's called The Dumb Zone.
We get sued.
It was just a pretzel.
That's tough.
So now, day two.
Recognition, Dan.
So now I'm at 24 Hour Fitness, of course.
Rinse two, baby.
Which really is only open, I think, from like 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.
It's really false advertising.
I don't know how they get away with that.
COVID probably killed it.
So and 24 hour fitness is a wide variety of people.
You've got your high school type kids.
You've got your high school type kids. You've got your super olds.
I kind of feel like I fit in the middle somewhere,
certainly towards the older end of the spectrum.
But then you have your real muscle heads, like real.
Like they, this is what they do all the time.
Then you got your guys just trying not to die and all that.
Anyway, one of, and then, you know,
there's some hot ladies, there's some hot dudes.
So there's a hot dude.
I don't know if he's in his 30s, I would say.
Real hot though.
But real like big.
Like he's one of the guys that's there for the free weights.
There's like the whatever, you don't call them nautilus machines, the whatever, not free weights, the machines, but then there's the free weight guys.
And so, and those guys I don't really interact with. I mean, I don't interact with anybody really.
But you know, everybody, that's the thing about the workout culture. If you've experienced this, like the gym culture,
I've always likened it to the pot culture.
Just cool people usually who are just letting you do your thing.
Like you can kind of just do your thing, you're in your little world and you don't, I don't
care what they're doing in their world and they don't care what I'm doing in mine.
Sure.
Like you might just stand there and just start doing jumping jacks
or just doing something weird that
if you were doing that here, you'd be like,
what are you doing?
But everybody there is doing something really weird.
So, and everybody's really just usually very polite
and nice and oh, can I do that?
Yeah.
Anyway, this big, real beefy guy
that you could only dream of being that strong.
Oh yeah.
It kind of walks over and often that will be a,
is this your last set?
Or something like that.
And that's what I thought it was.
So I took out my earbud,
cause this guy's motioning to me
as I'm getting on the machine.
And he goes,
hey, which of these chicks here
do you think are into fairy smut?
Nice.
That's what I said.
I love it.
Yeah.
All right.
Yeah, Jimmy, we recently became aware of, I guess, fairy smut.
My wife loves that shit.
Oh, you know what that is?
Oh yeah, what's the one?
The Court of Thorn and Roses.
Akitar.
Mess it up.
Akitar.
Someone else emailed me and they said they call it Clitlit.
I like it.
Yeah, it's more graphic.
There's like dragon dudes stretching holes
and it gets aggressive.
We played a little bit of audio last week
of apparently they stroke their wings the male wings
Those type of scenes. Yeah, it's not your mom's Danielle steel with tender embraces. No, they're getting after it
So anyway, that's good for you. That's cool I didn't get his name because it's like the gym and it's a take your earbud out and put it back in real quick
I think so. It's like yeah, I don't know my buddy at the gym. Yeah, you never know the move.
I met a guy Friday night down at a Harvest Hall,
which is like the food hall area in Grapevine.
Very good for families.
He'd been sitting there for probably 20 minutes.
We're the only people out there.
He's with two little boys, I'm with my kids
and another family, and it took until the last five minutes
he was there, he was like, hey, love the show hey love show I'm like dude I've been sitting here by myself for 45
minutes could have come over and said something yeah I think people are like
oh I don't want to bother him like that's exactly what he said to me though
I don't mind that alone then I had a humbling experience on Saturday I went
to breakfast with our good friend Bob Sturm. Oh wow. And the lady, there was a couple at a table,
older couple next to us, and after we were getting up,
they were like, excuse us, but didn't one of you
work at a radio station?
I was like, yeah, sorry, good.
Humbled.
But the other listener I ran into on Saturday was-
Bob, by the way, texted me.
Well, he loves the handoff
We had our first somewhat organized soccer game on Saturday
Like the first game of hey, there's a practice during the week and we don't just show up beforehand. There's actual teams
chilly
No, no, they're warming up by by daytime on Saturday yes fun whatever I immediately
was thrown back into that place that I spent the first 18 years of my life four
times a week which is having adults yell at me from a sideline mm-hmm you think
you're not gonna do I don't know that I'll be yell at the kid,
I'll do like hey that way.
But the number of parents,
go, go, go, get the ball, get the ball,
Adrian, get the ball, go.
Yeah I think soccer's the worst for that.
It's insane.
Cause it never stops and it's always the same thing.
Just get the ball and run that way.
That's your only advice for them.
Like if Nora became separated from the herd,
I would kinda walk over to that side of the field
and I'd be like, babe, ball.
And she'd kinda like get back in.
But just joining the cacophony of people from the sideline,
kick it!
Landry, kick it!
Landry, kick it other way, stop the ball!
Stop it!
It's just insane, dude.
It really is.
Like I walked up and I seriously was standing there like,
holy shit, I haven't thought about this since I was a kid.
This was just all you ever heard.
Every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday for your whole life.
Choke up!
Choke up, scoot up in the box, scoot up!
Big one. Scoot up!
Most I ever got yelled at was umpiring
a nine, 10 year old softball game.
Yep.
I was like 14 and they had a scheduling conflict
or somebody I didn't show up and they were like,
Jimmy, you're doing a softball game solo.
And I was like, are there different rules?
And they're like, it's kind of the same, you'll get it.
I was like, all right.
Parents didn't love it.
One guy, being the reasonable adult,
was just like, this kid's fucking up.
And so he would kind of feel like, hey, this, this, this,
and he was like, helping me.
And I didn't care which team won.
There was a nice man helping.
And then that turned into almost like a fistfight
in the stands that I was on the other team's side yeah rigging this nine-year-old softball game
you're trying to end it yeah there's big money in Vegas riding on the ladybugs
taking a win here that's before I'm even not even to the like fan we when we
typically talk about overzealous kids sports parents we're talking about like
arguing with refs arguing with each other I'm not even getting into that
part of it you know what I mean yeah I we're talking about arguing with refs, arguing with each other. I'm not even getting into that part of it.
You know what I mean?
I'm just talking about the yelling instruction thing.
And the best thing you can do is be like,
man, that's really weird.
When you're with your daughter's new friends
and you don't realize they're just normal people
who also do that.
So then you sit down and you're like,
look at these weirdos, they just yell the whole game.
And then. They start yelling the whole game. And then.
They start yelling the whole game.
Yeah.
But that's a, dude, it's a wild scene.
And then, yeah, the, I was walking to the other side
to go tell Nora something while she's on the bench,
and then their coach, I was prepared to come in here
and rip this morning.
He was like, hey dude, love the show.
The other team.
Yeah, and I was like, well, you've got quite the squad here.
It was like a hundred to one.
Really?
Yeah.
And he looked like a guy who was like,
I mean, he was like ripped and stuff.
I was like, dude, look at this guy.
No, we would beefcake.
Yeah.
A lot of beefcakes out there listening right now.
Cool joggers.
When I was coaching those little league games
at various levels, there were certain times
when this other team would just be running circles around us, but actually the kids were
listening and stuff.
Oh yeah.
And I asked the guy if I can come to his practice and just see what they do.
Because I thought I was doing a good job.
You're just on the internet looking for practice things.
And then this guy's running the weave and all this. It's incredible.
There is a very high level.
It's kind of the same way there's a difference
between umpires at different levels.
There's a difference in coaching.
If you got me out there, you're just trying to get through.
We got good attitudes around.
You're trying to get them to stay in the right place.
And really, that's all I'm concerned about.
So I don't think it makes you a douche parent
if you run over and you're like, hey, run that way.
Does that play, Blake?
Because I can sense your distaste.
Well, no.
I'm just sitting here quietly
because I've been going to my nephew's soccer games
every weekend, get Brooks out of the house, and I've got some observations
and I don't, I really don't want to be that parent yelling at him, but I can feel
that I'm going to be. It just doesn't help them. It's inevitable. Unless it doesn't
help the coach, because the coach is trying to be the voice that they hear. I
know. Yeah and then that needs to be their only voice. And I felt like when I was
doing it I was never when I was doing it,
I was only helping the coach.
The coach was focusing on the action,
and my kid had drifted away from that.
So I'm like, hey, just back over there.
And then just kind of stay over there.
And you wouldn't do that for another kid, though,
that was drifting, right?
No.
So that's a thing.
You got to let losers lose.
They don't learn.
The one whose dad isn't there.
No.
Oh.
So a couple other quick things.
I hired a guy, I paid a guy 50 bucks
to help me move a couch yesterday.
Off what, you got some app?
Yeah.
Craigslist?
No, but it's, you know, there's a million
TaskRabbit and all the like.
This is basically just if you just don't have friends. I
Imagine this is probably pretty popular in the land of transplants
But my neighbor was golfing and I really needed to move a couch and they just dropped it off outside my cat my house I'm like a
New couch. Yeah, I think the move is uber eats a sandwich. Oh
Then tip the guy $20 to help you move.
So you've probably saved 11 bucks.
You have a sandwich and the couch is inside.
And maybe a friend.
Maybe a lifelong friend.
Now is this the new?
He'll lean in and go, love the show.
Jake office above the garage?
Yeah, now can I tell you how we-
We got a new couch, huh?
I'll tell you how we arrived at paying someone.
So Friday, there were some crews over there working and
I was like alright when I get back at the end of the day. I'm gonna pay one of them to help me
but
When I got back there was like six or seven guys out there working and I had
120 and I couldn't in my mind work through how I select gonna select. Like was I gonna do, was it like a t-shirt cannon?
Or like a pignan, or like a veil?
Do like the rose thing.
Yeah.
Like a ceremony?
Yeah, yeah.
So I ended up just like not doing it.
You just walk around feeling their backs like.
Like it's the draft.
Yeah, have them do a quick little combine.
And then the other thing I did is
I took the very rare move of no sporting event related,
just got together with four or five buddies
and just watched TV for a couple hours on Saturday afternoon.
What'd y'all watch?
Rugby.
That's sporting.
That's very specific.
And a series of YouTube compilations of ski accidents.
Hell yeah.
Now why didn't you incorporate that into your,
oh hey guys, will you help me move the couch?
Well, we were going to a buddy's house
who doesn't have kids.
Oh, all right.
Yeah, but what this turned into.
Oh, you didn't do that at your house.
No, but what this turned into though,
is we span about six or seven years of graduating classes.
Plus we have maybe a couple people
with older brothers, younger brothers.
So just looking at the full span of like a decade of people
that went to the same high school
and we just started going through the dossier
of people that have been in the news that we knew.
That's a fun one.
You know, you're gonna get your basic like DUI
that was big enough to make a news, but you got a couple of, You know, you're gonna get your basic, like, DUI that was big enough to make a news,
but you got a couple of, you know,
embezzlements or money laundering
or teacher-student sex, obviously, we've talked about.
And we were laughing because,
so there was a guy that was a year or so older than me,
we did this story on the news,
he killed his father-in-law. His father-in-law
met up with him and his son, the guy that I went to my high school, he wanted him to
sign I guess divorce papers and the husband wouldn't do it, he killed him, right? So even
when you kill someone, you're still out during the trial a lot of times. We were laughing
because in between the time
that this murder happened and when the guy was sentenced
to 23 years, which I believe was last month,
he had commented on Facebook on a Buddy of Ours post,
the description of which I basically think the guy
commented like looks delicious and it was just
a fresh salsa recipe that the guy.
He's thinking about what he's gonna be missing out on.
If you were staring at 23 years.
You got a capital murder.
What do you do?
I mean, look up fresh recipes.
I mean, that's what's so funny.
Do you try to?
If you put it in that, like, live normal.
We were saying like.
No, do you try to move to Mexico and go off the grid?
It's gotta be so hard, man.
Especially, like it might not be hard for you right now,
but once you have a murder charge,
it's gotta be impossible.
This is alleged, just in case this ever happens,
and now I'm a credible flight risk.
Boy, 23 years.
Yeah, no.
I'm thinking about leaving town.
Yeah, no, I mean, I'm thinking about leaving town. Yeah, no. I mean, I'm thinking about leaving Erd.
Yeah, but could you get, like, would you go across the border somewhere, or does that
make you stand out more?
Dude, I mean, you probably got an ankle monitor, right?
So like, you have a number of...
Well, you can clip it off and bolt, you know?
Yeah, I mean...
Clip it off, and right away, though, they're alerted right that second.
Yeah, I saw.
So you gotta have your...
You need to be at the border when you take it off.
Tommy Lee Jones is coming after that ass.
Yeah, I...
Dude, I don't think I stand a chance.
And you're off, you obviously can't,
you don't have any money, any access to money,
except cash, whatever cash you can get.
Also, you do have like the dynamic of anybody
that you ask for help, your loved ones for example,
you're making them an accessory to whatever.
So now you could be jamming them up too,
so you're pretty much lone wolf in this thing.
But I can tell you, what I wouldn't do is just
see my buddy pick some fresh tomatillos and made a salsa,
and just be like, that looks amazing.
I don't know, maybe you're just trying to live your life as normal as
possible up to that point. I mean that's what that's the psychology behind it
that was interesting to me is it you're just like look I I'm just gonna live it
like it's normal and if I end up going away for the rest of my life for a very
noteworthy murder. And how old is he? 40 or so? 40, 41. 23, maybe you get parole.
15 years.
15 years.
I don't know, I don't know how that works.
Did he ever sign the divorce papers?
That's a great question.
I don't know.
Is there a code against firefighters in prison?
Like is there like, there's for cops?
I don't think so.
We're the good ones, man.
Yeah.
You know, we don't rough up minorities on a regular basis.
So.
Boy man, ever since 9-11,
everybody wants to be a firefighter.
I know, right?
You're so lucky that 9-11 happened.
Never forget.
Got back after flag football yesterday too.
Just wanted you to know the boys are okay. It like the WNBA another season? New QB's doing okay? Beat the God
squad. Oh you won? Yeah. Yeah we had expected a loss. Big day big day boys are
back. The squad's windy day. Very windy. I was I was actually thinking about that
when I was out taking a walk.
How is this affecting Jake's game?
Because I had talked to you when you were on your way
to the game.
It did affect it.
It did affect it.
How was the Cardinals?
We split, a little shalom split.
Did power one through the wind, though.
You did.
Yeah.
That was cool. Yeah, I don't know did you
just brag about hitting a home run yeah yeah I want to win the same win that
affects his little football I was able to power my softball through it and over
the fence really feel like it was sure that a challenge it possibly carried it
though God is there anything gay is it you guys arguing about what's more
manly softball or flag football. Yeah, man
What's up guys? There was once a day I vowed I would never play softball
Because you're a hardball guy baseball. Yeah, like those are yeah join a men's league
You did pussy on Saturday night live now
uh
Yeah, I guess I did notice that. You've always been able to. Really? Yeah I mean as we
said there's lots of words over the years that... Yeah Will Ferrell has said the n-word right?
Blake and I halfway thought that when they did SNL 20... was it 25? When he did Goulet? He came
out as Goulet recently. Yeah. And that was gonna be my ultimate Trump thing. Because did you guys
see like... so I'm keeping a list of stuff that's okay now,
cause Trump won.
Like the Bucks are putting John Gruden
back in the ring of honor.
Hell yeah, I saw that.
You guys are like, all right, well.
Maybe those guys shouldn't have been acting gay.
Maybe they should have thought about that.
Yeah, so like if Will Ferrell just came out there
in SNL 50 and just dropped the N-word.
I was watching.
Like he did in 1998.
Him on Conan did that bit.
Yeah.
Hard R.
Did he?
He did the N on Conan?
On Conan.
I know he used to be.
Who did?
Will Ferrell.
Will Ferrell.
Wow.
I was like, I didn't, this hadn't been making the rounds.
Yeah.
Very much.
Yeah, I'm surprised that isn't pop up.
I mean, Stern on blackface pops up now and again.
Jimmy Kimmel obviously does I'm calm alone
It was funny or it's trumps in are we allowed to say that was funny. Yeah. No, that's good
Yeah, so the Karl Malone
Jimmy we got that poster over there last Thursday. The movie one? Yeah.
You ever seen it?
The Goodfellas?
I have seen Goodfellas.
It's been a minute.
That's when they're all,
they're in prison, right, and it's awesome?
Well, Dan.
When they do go to prison, it's awesome.
Yeah, okay.
Yeah.
Uh, Dan asked me to watch it over the weekend, and I did.
Oh!
I'd never seen it, and it-
Wasn't it Pavlov's birthday the other day?
When Dan says something, do something and do it.
That right, Ivan Pavlov.
So yeah, and I guaranteed, I said,
there's no way that you will not like this movie.
Would you agree with that assessment?
It's a good movie.
For any man, any real man.
So that's the caveat I should have put out there.
We got a coin toss here.
So in his words, he asked me to stop watching Yes. Any real man. So that's the caveat I should have put out. We got a coin toss here.
So in his words, he asked me to stop watching
my violin movies and watch Goodfellas.
So I did put down the Lindsey Stirling this weekend
and I plowed through the two and a half hours of Goodfellas.
Had to do two sittings.
It's long.
It is.
And I remember watching, I wish,
I remember watching Godfather for the show and I thought it was okay. I watched The Sopranos, I made it, I wish, I remember watching Godfather for the show,
and I thought it was okay.
I watched The Sopranos, I made it through a season,
wasn't really capturing everything.
The one thing I remember was Uncle Junior
not wanting people to find out he ate puss.
That was my main takeaway.
You pretty much got the whole, one of the shots.
Yeah, that covers.
Fade to black, Or cut to black.
So I'm not well versed in the whole mob thing.
You think that'd make it better
because you're not worn out of it.
Yeah.
There's been too many of them.
And Goodfellas was excellent.
There it is.
There we go.
Really, really liked it.
The best mob thing I've ever seen.
And now that I've seen it,
I now want to watch Sopranos again.
Like, The Godfather was, it's classic,
but it's also, that's what it is, it's kinda classic.
It's the old-timey story.
Everything about it is almost overplayed.
Whereas, you know, the shooting of Sonny
at the toll booth or something,
it's just so unrealistic,
but it's, whereas the, like Goodfellas,
stabbing that guy in the trunk,
like that's how it works.
He didn't really die.
I didn't really connect with Godfather,
but flipped on Goodfellas, and you're right,
it's the three of them driving, they hear rattling,
what is that, a flat tire, open it up,
and then I'm thinking, what are they gonna do?
And then Pesci just pulls out the biggest knife
I've ever seen and just cleans him up.
And I thought, oh, okay, I'm in.
And you saw later where he got that knife.
Yeah, so the first-
For the paw, the hoof.
Born in 91, the first thing I'd ever seen
Joe Pesci in was Home Alone.
So really weird for me to go from Home Alone Joe Pesci
to this.
Not like Don Fischen, I bet you saw that too.
Where I had the opposite.
Danny Glover.
Cause I think he was in, what did I see him in?
What's that boxing movie with De Niro?
Raging Bull.
Yeah.
He's in that and he's kind of the same guy
he's in everything, right?
The casino, that boxing movie, the, yeah.
But then yes, that was really weird then
to see him in Home Alone.
Yeah.
Or My Cousin Vinny or something.
Right, yeah, so I went backwards,
but he was a firecracker.
I think he was my favorite character.
You like the funny how, of course?
Yeah.
Like ha ha funny?
Yes. Like a clown?
Yeah.
And I was legit bummed when he walked in because he thought he was getting made and no one
was in the room and they shot him.
What?
I'm not spoiling anything.
Oh.
That was a big, that was a meme.
I sent it to Brian Curtis.
I didn't think it was overworked, but just jokes were overworked about Zelinsky walking
into the White House.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, that works.
Sure.
That works.
You know, Dan has had, they had Henry Hill in
for like an hour.
No way, I actually started looking into him.
The real Henry Hill.
Yeah. Yeah.
When?
Was he live or was it on the phone?
It was live.
Wow. It was live or, yeah, it was live. It wasn it on the phone? It was live. Wow.
It was live or, yeah, it was live.
It wasn't on the phone.
Dang, yeah, I need to go back and hear that.
And then the book is awesome, dude.
It's called Wise Guys.
It's not called Goodfellas.
Interesting, okay.
But it expands.
Like if you read The Godfather book,
I had seen The Godfather a million times,
read the book when I had COVID.
In like two days, it's the exact movie.
There's really not a lot of variation from it.
But Wise Guys is a true story, it wasn't fiction,
and there's so much more.
So I highly recommend that
if you wanna put down your fairy smut.
He knows what to say.
No, but yeah, him beating up Billy Bats and shooting Michael Imperiali.
Those were all shocking moments.
Spider.
Yeah, spider.
I did enjoy the crossover, like De Niro's and all of these kinds of things,
but seeing Imperiali was cool, seeing Dr. Melfi as the wife was cool.
Aaron. Which, Jake, I don't Melfi as the wife was cool.
Which, Jake, I don't know if you saw the documentary that might've been while you were away,
but hearing that they originally wanted her
as Tony's wife, but then she said no
and she ended up being the therapist,
I thought that was cool.
Because I don't know, I don't wanna see her
in the same role in two different things.
I did wanna play you one piece of audio that I marked.
From Goodfellas.
Yeah.
And I had marked this.
This pleases me by the way.
I'm very happy.
Good.
I pulled this before seeing the ending.
Whoa.
Because Ray Liotta's character, they were selling cigarettes and then they got caught and so he's gotta go to court
and obviously they pay the judge off, he gets off clean
and he's walking back and De Niro kinda grabs him
and he thought De Niro's gonna be really mad at him
because he got caught.
But he was actually really proud of him
because he did what he was supposed to.
And up until that point, I don't remember Pauly,
the big guy, ever
saying anything. And I'm pretty sure this was his first line in the movie so I
pulled the De Niro two rules that you never break and Pauly's first words not
knowing how the movie was gonna end.
Congratulations. Here's your graduation present.
There's no more for it. I'm pinched.
Everybody gets pinched but you did it right.
You told them nothing and they got nothing.
I thought you'd be mad.
I'm not mad. I'm proud of you.
You took your first pinch like a man
and you learned the two greatest things in life.
What?
Look at me. Never write on your friends.
And always keep your mouth shut.
When they walk out.
There he is, there he is.
Oh, you broke your cherry.
First line in the movie, oh you broke your cherry.
But yeah, I was sitting on that audio and then the very ending of course is him going into witness protection and outing the two of them.
And that was a pretty great scene where he's like, you know, do you know this guy?
And he points at them and zoom in on their face
and their anger.
And then it went back to these two rules that he broke.
And I don't know, it was awesome.
Thank you for the recommendation.
And now that poster is awesome now that I've seen the movie.
And I'm glad I'm Joe Pesci.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
What'd you do this weekend, Clayton?
I feel like Clayton ingests a lot of media over the weekend.
Yeah, it does a bit of soaking.
Business Friday, big day with the accountant.
Got to explain to a complete stranger what the dumb zone is and what No Puppet Productions
is. of what the dumb zone is and what no puppet productions is so that was a that was a very
hard change in the conversation. Did he scold you for leaving your other job? No, he just said
one lady and it was just like oh okay okay I was like it's a podcast. Not a very good one.
Not a very good one. Should have said that.
Oh, y'all stop it.
Yeah, I'm gonna say that.
Yeah, yeah.
I'd give it a life for this, but yeah, okay.
Saturday, we had a big wrestling day.
What does that mean?
Elimination chamber.
He put a singlet on.
WWE elimination chamber.
Oh, is this where Cena turned heel?
Yeah, it was sick.
Crushed the hopes and dreams of all those Make-A-Wish kids that he helped over the years.
I think he has the record for most Make-A-Wishes.
I think Shane Gillis has talked about that.
For sure.
Yeah, he turned heel on Cody Rhodes.
So that was a big day.
A lot of people saw it coming, but.
This has been the weekend check with Clayton.
Big wrestling weekend.
Yeah, and then.
Almost had to call Hulu on Sunday.
Call.
Grammys, or not the Grammys, the Oscars was not streaming.
Hulu made a big deal about the Oscars being streamed on Hulu and their site was down.
So I followed the Oscars on Twitter and celebrated Texas Independence Day.
So you, is Hulu your live TV subscriber? That is who I use, yeah. Okay, not YouTube
TV or something? No, big PlayStation view guy back in the day loved that. Yeah, loved
PSVU man. Solid interface. That was the best one. Yeah, and had to switch to Hulu
once they got rid of their stuff.
How much is Hulu a month?
I wouldn't know.
It would probably be better to do Hulu
than, cause I have the Hulu ESPN Disney bundle.
Yeah, that's the way to go.
Yeah.
But if I added live TV to that,
I could not have YouTube TV.
Got to replace it, yeah.
Well, the Hulu live TV would replace that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And does that get all the sports channels
or at least the ones I want?
Does it get all the Laker games?
That's really what happened.
Well, you get all the Laker games now.
Because of a purchase you made over the weekend?
You might've seen the email confirming.
Yeah.
Spectrum sports, I paid for the Lakers package. After you the Mavs one I figure well let's get us back on
budget so we're on these games now I needed to get some audio from the game
last night I feel like we're Luka fans yeah I watched the game last night so I
just want to but let's recap his he almost called Hulu and then just decided wrestling was on just look
at he saw an account and I almost called Hulu. Cena turned heel I didn't have time
to count phone yeah 45 minute phone call. I just gave up I was beaten it was
Sunday night I had belly full of smoked meats and I was you know I was beaten. It was Sunday night. I had belly full of smoked meats
And I was you know, I was like, you know, I got on Twitter and I already saw that there were enough people sending death threats and angry
Remarks towards Hulu's way and I was like, you know, I
Don't really feel like getting on the phone I'm gonna go watch the news. What's your full Oscar review real quick?
Kieran Colkin hilarious as always
He's a treasure he is yeah who would have thought yeah, we all thought it was McCauley all these years No, and then we've been hiding this guy
The the bit with the firefighters
They had them up on stage doing a whole bit and he goes
we like to our hearts go out to all the people lost in lost their homes in the
fires specifically talking about the producers of Joker 2 and that basically
just brought the whole room to tears laughing. Conan did a really good job.
Thought he did a great job.
I watched his monologue yesterday.
It was funny.
And that was, I mean, the winners,
I kind of already knew who was gonna win.
I mean, you can kind of tell the way the other,
I mean, it's the last one, so it's kind of like,
you already kind of know who's winning for what.
But yeah. Is Oscar still so white?
I have no idea.
Conan fixed that.
Yeah, it's now translucent.
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't pay attention to it at all.
Although I do think the firefighter sketch is a good idea.
Have them yell offensive stuff.
That's good.
All right. Well, there is a weekend check
brought to us by Elite Rides DFW Sports Today. Wait, that's not sports. What am I doing? Can you
cut that out? No? Yeah, I'll mark it. We'll say sports is brought to us by Qualis Roofing.
We'll say sports is brought to us by Qualis Roofing. Qualis Roofing.
And they'll take you to Bueno?
They might.
I don't know.
Hit them up.
500-9008-817-500-9008.
It's qualisgc.com.
Get you a roof.
They didn't do the roof here at Fox 4, but at the Den, when we're at the Den, they did
the roof at the Den.
They've done My House.
They've done, I don't know.
It seems like hundreds of listeners. They might be getting into the thousands soon. They may be because any
listener that gets a roof with Qualys, of course, they'll get a 690 on your behalf. You can come
hang out, get a roof inspection. They'll give you a Dumbs on T-shirt for free. Roof inspection is
very important according to the nerds at the insurance company, but they decide what's important.
So let Qualys take care of that for you.
QualisGC.com, it is Qualis Roofing Dan.
This is the one we meant to hit.
Yeah.
You knew he was gonna do it.
You think it was hard to watch when he was going
Oh yeah, I like that.
One for nine, and he was playing like ass.
He still hasn't even really had a supernova one yet.
No.
It was not good for my psyche that I got up and watched
basically both of those games,
both Lakers-Clippers games this morning.
He's...
Jesus Christ.
He's hitting last second of the shot clock threes fade away
Yelling at the crowd. He's yes. He's just
That cocky guy that we know. I mean we know it we've seen it a million times
We've seen it on Tuesday nights, you know, whatever
But they're all kind of experiencing it for the first time, and we're living through them now.
He, my prediction of all this,
have you had, are you locked into the face of the league talk?
Are you familiar with?
He's the king, yeah.
That's kind of a thing.
Right now, who's gonna be the next face of the league
and all that kind of stuff, and LeBron.
kind of stuff and LeBron. I feel like Luca being in LA can elevate him to that because he's so fun, he's good-looking, he just looks like he's having a good
like but he can be that killer a-hole. Like Anthony Edwards, I don't see any of that.
He's fun too, but I don't think he's good enough.
I don't think he's good enough to transcend the sport.
I think Steph Curry became good enough
to transcend the sport.
Yeah, we'll see.
And all of a sudden Steph Curry was
kind of the face of the league,
maybe back and forth with LeBron, maybe both
of them together, but he was like that good.
Kobe certainly was for a while, you know, but like if LeBron and Steph retired, right retired right now, who would you say? I'm saying Luca is the number one option to
morph into face of the league because he is in LA. He's extremely fun. The Lakers
are ready are kind of like the story of the day every day, not just because
LeBron is on the team. They're the Cowboys of the NBA where that's just always going to be the thing.
And then he's going to be there every night. He's going to be on TNT as much as legally possible
for their contract or whatever. It's really just a matter of he doesn't speak English as well as
maybe you'd hope. Anthony Edwards, you could see him doing like space jam
or whatever, but outside of that, I mean,
I've thought Luca would be the next guy anyways.
But Steph, to me, it isn't like because of things
I heard Steph say.
I'm not even positive about his voice.
It's the way he plays, it's night-night,
it's the cockiness.
Jokic doesn't really have that.
Jokic is endearing.
He's a machine.
Yeah, Duncan.
But I mean, Tim Duncan was a machine,
and it just never stuck.
Maybe if Jokic had a media conglomerate behind him
pushing all of his games, possibly he could become that.
But he's also just not that fun.
He's not wagging his finger, right?
He's not, like Luka is, he's also just not that fun. Like he's not wagging his finger, right? He's not, like Luca is, he's yelling at fans.
He's, did you see when he walked into the Clippers huddle?
No.
That's endearing.
That's wonderful.
Like, so the Clippers are huddling up
and Luca kind of just walks over and like gets in
and his hands on Harden's shoulder and leans in
and like Harden's like, hey man, like he's all mad. Like, and Luke is just laughing like this little kid who just got away with something.
And I mean, that sounds cool. That's awesome. It sounds okay, but Anthony Davis has his own
prank show. So you want to go jokester for jokester. They only gave him that because he lives in LA and
he lived in LA and there wasn't any rush to get Anthony Davis
National pub because he's so fun loving and oh
Well, trust me. They're gonna force that on it
That was kind of a that that Anthony Davis thing was kind of like a Belichick tour
Like we're trying to soften Belichick and make him likable and all that and like Anthony Davis doing a prank shows
Not that we think he's just nothing he's he's there he's a guy he's good player often injured
yeah i mean it just it just sucked it sucked watching him do his thing it's the worst
trade in nba history and i'm thinking these are the worst this is the worst owner in NBA history,
because I was driving to work today thinking of Ted Steppian, who had like a rule instituted
so that other owners couldn't be as bad of an owner as Ted Steppian. He was the Cavs owner in the 1980s.
And what he did is traded like every first round draft pick they had for just older players or guys he had
kind of heard of and it just didn't work out well at all. It really helped the Mavs of
the 80s though, stock their draft picks. And they instituted a rule that you can't trade
consecutive year draft picks. It's the Ted Steffian rule. I don't know if they overtly
call it that, but that's what it is. Yeah.
But he didn't trade away, like you didn't have Jordan and then go,
you know what, I don't like his attitude.
I'm gonna trade this guy.
Like you had the one that you're always trying to find
and then traded him, so I'm sorry.
No, it pisses me off.
It pisses me off watching him be happy again,
even though that's what I want.
Once I saw it last night and over the weekend, it just pisses you off all over again he's
talking trash to the crowd here's one from Lakers television that I don't
even I don't like that they're running with this it's not gonna play Blake on
the sports nothing is really going right for me today over here, fellas. Now, JJ Redick and the Lakers, again, the amazing record that they have had against teams over 500.
They were not beaten in February by a team over 500.
That's a rainbow by the Don.
Zou did a good job of stepping out.
I like the Don. They're leaning into it big time.
Rainbow by the Don.
The Don. That was either his first or second three of that game, and he made four or five more. They're leaning into it big time rainbow by the dawn the dawn
That was either his first or second three of that game and you heard that before he's a he's he loves it the dawn And if you wait Luca loves no the TV guy. Yeah, and it feels very cheesy LA ish
The dawn but just listening to those two guys over the weekend call and then you know Friday night. It was Mark Jones
Treated to a Mark Jones game and just marveling at him and LeBron playing together and I went look that stat up that I was
telling you about the other day we didn't have a show on Friday. If you just
look at the quality of passes LeBron has gotten from Luca it's the best he's ever
had in his life. Every time you look up in last night's game he's Lucas throwing
one at 50 feet down the
floor and LeBron's just laying it in. It's hard to watch, man. It's hard to watch Quinton
Grimes go for 40 and for the Mads to get destroyed in the second half by a Bubs team. Everything
is going as bad as it possibly could right now.
Did you see the story that indicated Quintin Grimes like asked
for the trade? Asked for the trade after they traded Luca. Yeah. Because he didn't
want to be with the franchise anymore. Respect. I got to wonder, yeah and they
had a chance to get out of that trade and they didn't. Yeah after the Caleb
Martin thing. Yeah. I got to wonder how this off season is going to go.
Cause yeah, it's true. People did want to play with Luca.
He improves their numbers.
Everybody at the Dorian.
And that's another thing is making this Lakers thing hard is Dorian's playing a
lot. It's like watching Dorian and Luca out there for big moments over the last
couple of games. I'm like, damn, this is easy for me to root for actually.
Dorian and Luca. Why don't they just add bull bond? I'm down. If they want to rub it in
maybe Cuban becomes a minority owner. I mean fine the funniest outcome now and
it's what I want to happen I want I want the Lakers to win it this year. Oh yeah.
The funniest possible outcome and they can win it.
They'd have to get stupid. Well you know why they can? They have like a guy who wins the play.
Yeah, because they have, that's the reason that they would say, in any series that the
Mavs were not favored in, they would say yeah but they do have Luca so you just never can you never know. Yeah. If what's
the old adage who what team has the best player like the best player in the
series if you have that then you have a chance to win that series and every
series that the Mavs were ever in they always had the best player in the series? Well, this sucks.
Remember those days?
Like a month ago?
Yeah.
A month or two days ago?
One other thing that I was going to tell you,
because I was listening to our friends at Lockdown Lakers,
there's nothing you can do about it.
It's going to happen.
Give up.
But when he wins an MVP next year, no matter how much,
we're all like, yeah, they were just in the finals with him and yeah you know he was actually he was playing
decent defense at times all of it it's just gonna be it all changed when he
went to LA because I can already hear people saying it I can already see it on
look how locked in Luca looks on defense like he does that all from time to time
when he wants to that's just this is how it goes with him.
You're already seeing, look how much skinnier he looks.
No matter what happens, it's not gonna be about Dallas.
He's a Laker, he'll be a lifelong Laker.
The fact that he was in Dallas will be a footnote
and nothing more than a, hey remember when he started
his career with those also rants and had to figure it out.
That's what it's gonna be.
Well let me just ask you about Kareem.
Where did Kareem play?
Right, yeah, so I mean.
He was like with the Bucks for quite a few years.
Nobody cares.
No.
That's what we are.
Sorry.
You know why Kareem left?
It's true.
That's what we are.
They didn't have enough black people there, right?
Kareem asked to, yes, that's one thing.
If the guy wants to leave.
Yeah, and shit, dude, I mean, you know how much
human trafficking of Luka were like,
I want more Slovenians there?
I would have gotten involved.
Could have made that happen.
I like how every time we do a Luca thing now,
this is how he gets, I don't know what's coming next
on the show because it's like, damn.
It's sad.
I know, I feel you.
As someone that frequents y'all's Reddit periodically.
Lotta Luca.
Everyone's upset.
It's not good out there.
You haven't had any Luca related calls
Well, yeah frequent something periodically. I thought that was a stupid thing to say wasn't it? Yeah, see me on Thursday. I'm an idiot
Way to get him in no any Luca related calls. Uh, yeah
but Okay, I'll tell you off air. Okay, please
Huh? Okay. It's wildly specific.
Interesting.
Elsewhere in sports,
what am I reading about Trayvon Diggs
possibly being on the block?
He's not even healthy, right?
No.
No, Steven had some comments.
I don't have him in front of me here,
but the big news, it's OSSA could be today or tomorrow,
right, Blake?
Yeah.
Have you seen the number on that?
You know what?
It seems extremely high.
$20 million a year.
Do you feel like he's worth that?
I think he got to do it.
Do you think, would he get that on the open market?
That's the question.
I think so.
Yeah, I think he would.
And at some point,
you gotta do the, do Micah solid
and keep some of the guys that he.
Like they've never really invested into the.
No.
Interior defensive line, right?
No.
Which is, everyone always says,
you can win championships without good interior,
offensive, and defensive line.
Yeah, just getting run through in the middle.
I don't think a team that gets smacked up front
as much as they do can't afford to just start
over at that spot. He's worth it. Just as a big number for a guy that, you know, he
plays one of the positions where you're not often like, boy, that guy's worth
20 million dollars a year. The Trevon Diggs thing I saw was basically like a
guy from one of the contract websites just going through the way that his deal
is and it's set up that they could get away from him pretty
easily and yeah he's hurt he's not supposed to play until what midway
through this year yeah and remember there was controversy surrounding his
injury because they were unhappy that he got injured again yeah I think he was
rehabbing another injury so yeah there's there's a lot of there's a lot of bad around him right now.
What about his kid?
I was going to say, how long until Dan brings up Aiden, his slightly annoying kid?
You know, he's a...
He's not that annoying, it's just the media's over-infatuation with him once he
burst on the scene. We just got over-Aidened.
This is a very analytical scenario.
Our friends here, they work in business analytics.
My really analytical take, this is some proprietary data.
Trevon Diggs gives me the ick.
He doesn't slap.
Like in general, just as a teammate and as a guy,
like as a leader, that whole Mike Leslie thing
was weird as hell.
He just seems like he gets shook or he's tweeting about,
you know, fans and stuff too.
He just seems, I don't know.
I've never really thought, boy, this is a guy
you can definitely build around.
Very talented player.
Yeah, I got the ick around the time he liked a video
of a man wearing a, or a female wearing a fake penis
and like if you wanna suck it and Trayvon Diggs liked it.
And see, I was not even bringing that up.
Good clean fun.
That is a good-
Also has some opinions about the moon.
Thinks there's a military base on the other side of it.
Hell yeah.
What was it?
Yeah, if the moon were made of cheese, would you hate it?
What was it specifically, Blake? It was that all the pictures of the moon are made of chains, would you hate it? What was it specifically, Blake?
It was that all the pictures of the moon
are the same or something?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure he said,
how come we only see the same side of the moon?
Yeah.
How come it always same size, something?
But you know what I mean, though, right, Dan?
He just doesn't, you know, like for example,
Jalen Ramsey is a guy who's a DB,
who's flashy, who talks a lot of shit,
and I think you go to war with Jaylen Ramsey
eight days out of the week.
Whereas Trayvon Dix has never,
just never really seemed like the guy
that you're like, all right, we're building around that.
Doesn't wanna tackle it.
What draft pick do we have?
12.
12?
Mm-hmm.
That's where Micah was picked.
Do we have a, who are we talking for that first one are we in Travis Hunter range? No?
Ashton you'd be like Chanty
Please no
You don't want him. No. I don't want to running back in the top 15 picks
Well, this is some hot draft debate that I did not expect to break out today
But no they could do say it is The Trayvon Digs deal, as I understand it,
is pretty sweet in that they can get out of it
when they want, which is how you'd like to structure
deals like that.
As far as the OSA deal, the problem with it is,
if they do sign him, they're going to point to that as,
you said we didn't do anything in free agency.
We're all in by keeping our guys.
We locked him up.
Yeah.
Meanwhile, the commander's went and got Debo
for whatever that's worth.
Yeah, I don't know what that's worth.
He's an interesting study, because he
had that one great year.
I'd like to take a shot.
I mean, if I'm going to be throwing around picks,
I'd rather be on him than Jonathan Ringo.
If you're going to do a fifth round pick, why not?
Yeah.
But he's had one year of 1,400 yards.
He's never gone over 1,000 yards in any other season.
He's a fun, like, I like the versatile players.
But yeah, the ability to use him in different ways,
that doesn't seem like something the Cowboys wanna do.
That doesn't seem like something Mike McCarthy would wanna do. That doesn't seem like something Mike McCarthy
would wanna do.
It seems like you're forgetting that it's shoddy time.
Well, I was reading about shoddy.
I was reading a shoddy article this weekend.
It might've been actually about Ashton Gentry,
and he was talking about running.
And tell me if this is a cocky statement.
Schottenheimer says, quote,
I got in trouble for letting Russ Cook
a little bit back in Seattle.
Joking about his emphasis on Russell Wilson
in the passing game that led to his departure
with the Seahawks, but at the end of the day,
you had to be able to run the football.
So is he trying to tell us-
He's the Russ Cook guy?
Yeah, he's the reason
that when Russ was doing real great in Seattle, I mean, yeah, who was the OC? I
don't know. Yeah, that's a little much. It was me. That's right. It was me. I don't
like a guy named Schottenheimer saying let him cook. I don't like that one bit.
That code switching, as the kids call it.
Turn up the heat. Yeah, Schottenheimer.
What's up, fam?
That's a good place to end that.
Okay.
Sports at least.
Oh, my other sports story.
I did have one quick one.
Did you guys know who Jordan Schultz was before the weekend?
The brother of the tight end?
Oh, is he the announcer, the news breaker?
Yeah, yeah, the guy in the fight with what's his name?
Yeah, so Jordan Schultz, you've probably seen him around,
Blake.
He's done some stuff for ESPN.
He's done some stuff for Fox Sports.
And he got into a source-off, he got into an in-person altercation with Ian Rappaport
over whether or not Tom Brady had actually invited Matt Stafford to Montana or whether
or not they ran into one another. Which is pound for pound like the widest argument you
can have. It does make you remember that one off season supposedly Sean, not Sean Payton.
Sean McVeigh.
Sean McVeigh ran into Matt Stafford in the Bahamas or wherever and all of a sudden they're
making the trade.
That's traveling, I like that.
They got into an argument, these two NFL insiders in the lobby of the Starbucks in Indianapolis
for the combine. But the interesting part was that because of
this I found out that Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports is the son of Howard Schultz
of Starbucks. Yes. Which I did not know. No. It's kind of like Groot. You've got to help.
Like that is the move if you have a dad who just has infinite amounts of money,
just go get one of the fun jobs that pay shit.
Yeah.
But just do, like, be a board op.
Arthur Smith.
Arthur Smith.
His dad owns FedEx?
Or runs FedEx?
Yeah, but Arthur Smith, though, is like doing a hard job
that pays a lot of money.
Jordan Schultz is just like an NFL insider,
which doesn't pay that well.
But you can do it.
Well, Arthur Smith probably started
as a low-level coach that doesn't need.
Work your way up.
You know, I'll just get paid nothing,
get paid not even minimum wage.
And it says that he actually turned down the business.
Getting into the coffee biz.
But that is probably the move though, right?
Like you're still gonna get the family money.
Yeah.
Without having to be, you know, dealing with unions.
I don't know what.
He's on the easier path.
Yeah.
I like it.
So we can either break or.
Let's take a break.
Roll through, okay.
Jake has to pee.
The Dumb Zone.
You're listening to The Dumb Zone.
Let's see here. Oh, I know. I wanted to tell you about Bare Fight American Single Malt Whiskey, 90-proof
American Single Malt Whiskey, aged in first-fill bourbon barrels.
No.
That was Dan Burping.
No, that was the...
What are you doing, Jimmy?
Spokesman for Bear Fight Whiskey.
Bear Fight.
That's right.
Finished in peat-smoked oak and sherry casks.
Who's Pete?
You don't know nothing about that.
This award winner is approachable and versatile
with notes of dried fig, red ripe apple,
candied date sherry oak, and a whiff of peat smoke.
Don't know who that guy is, but I love the way he smells.
Bear Fight Kentucky Reserve, 90 proof Kentucky straight bourbon
finished in Reposado tequila,
basically this is awesome whiskey.
It's good stuff.
Yeah. and here's
to embracing your bear fights and raising a glass to the all to all the
bold challenges that come your way. Mm-hmm. What's your bear fight is what we
ask you. You can order bear fight whiskey now at bearfightwhiskey.com and
that's a key. So for some people, the Bear Fight might be like,
yeah, don't Google that one.
Word associations on a game, a New York Times game.
For others, it might be saving a life.
Yes, every morning I do the wordle and things like that.
What's your start word?
Great, G-R-A-T-E. I use a lot of those letters in many words. And then I'll go to Pius if I need to. Oh, Pius is a good one. Yeah, it was once Pius.
Do they have Lady Firefighters? Bearfightwhiskey.com. Now don't put in Bear Fights. I did that this
morning. Oh no.
Very important not to do that.
But we really want to implore people,
if you're going to support Bear Fight in the dumb zone,
Order it there.
Go to bearfightwhiskey.com.
Apparently that's how they know that you heard about it
from us.
If you get an order from Texas.
As a meathead, I appreciate bear fight as the name.
I know you do.
You said that and I was like, fuck yeah.
Yeah, no, I mean it's made for this guy.
That was my gut reaction.
You look like a guy that would like
a bottle of bear fight whiskey.
I'm gonna get one for you.
Okay, I'll take it.
Next time you're in here.
Hell yeah.
That was a serious question though.
Are there lady firefighters?
Yeah, how does it work?
Yeah, they're just like regular firefighters,
just a little weaker.
Yeah.
They don't do the playoffs?
Their wrists are just thinner, you know?
But I guess it's like with cops, it's not a big deal
because they don't cohabitate altogether.
I think they kind of have gotten away
in more modern fire stations where you have like bunk rooms
with like four beds,
where it used to be, and it's kinda,
they're sectioned off each in a corner with cabinets,
where it used to be just 10 beds in a big room
and you figure it out.
Yeah, it used to be more basic training looking.
You can tell the older stations do have
a hallway guest bathroom or something,
that if there's a lady
that works there they're kind of like, that's Sarah's.
Nobody take your morning dump in here.
Oh, I was thinking there was just one bathroom.
It's not unisex?
A lot of them are.
It's like a locker room, like old ones, because they assumed everyone was men.
And then now they kind of have to find a place to
Give her some privacy now. Does she get confused and start dancing on it and you're like, no you have to slide down the pole
She's up there again this nature takes its course
They had a lady that was in Playboy that got hired on like 15 20 years ago and it was
The bubbles weren't ready for it the biggest
No, I don't think she stayed around in Dallas. Yeah. Oh, yeah, really?
I remember and I don't I gotta ask someone we could go is that legend in the it's legendary in the firehouse just yeah
Which house do you work for I work for 33 is in Oak Cliff?
Like off of Illinois and Vernon down there kind Kind of across the highway from the zoo.
If you get a lot of action down there.
Yeah, we're a hot house past two years.
That's like the most fires in the city.
It's really?
Yeah, it's fun.
Like a banner or?
They give you a little plaque.
Okay.
You get a plaque.
You get a go to the award ceremony.
You get to put your nice little suit on,
as my mom calls it, my fire costume.
Is there really a?
Oh yeah, there's an awards banquet.
Really?
Yeah.
What are the various awards?
There's Hot House, then they do like,
just busiest single apparatus.
And then there's like a Meritorious Service Awards,
like if you do something crazy, they'll you a couple of words for that like what?
There's a guy that like pulled a lady out or a kid out of like a storm drain
Oh, yeah, and he was like a little guy or the fireman was and he like crawled a
Way too long of the distance like without ropes or anything just to get a kid out and they're like
Two thumbs up to that guy so he gets a pat on the back and a little plaque
All right, yeah
Have you ever won anything? I have not I have not yeah, what if they asked you to emcee it?
I actually I'm emcee I man I wanted to say no to this so bad
But uh my buddy's dad is a Wichita Falls fireman,
and he's a big funny guy, he comes out to shows,
and he was just like, hey, will you host our annual banquet?
And my immediate impulse was just like, fuck no.
That sounds like an awful time.
Dude, now that they've billed you as,
you're the funny one, huh?
Yeah, so I am in fact doing it.
Oh.
That's brutal.
We'll see how it goes.
Did you watch Shane on SNL?
I did.
Of course you did.
Are you Shane fan?
Yeah, I love Shane Giles.
Yeah.
It's like the most famous guy doing it right now.
I went back and watched the live spot probably five times.
The monologue?
No, the live spot. Couple of beers. Oh, that was
funny. Or not live spot. The ad. The advertiser. Yeah, pre-recorded. A little bump. A little
bump. Yeah. It felt like that was the most Shane bit that they did. Yeah, yeah. I feel
like calling out the races on the news. That was awesome.
That's a good shame.
Like we're leaning into this can be funny.
You mentioned student teacher sex earlier.
Yeah.
So that's.
Yeah, it's okay.
But you knew right away.
SNL has at least gotten to the point where they're like,
it's not racist to point out that people who are different
are known to do different things.
They're.
They've at least gotten that back, and I think it's good.
That was as racy of a show that I've seen.
Yeah, and it's- Like throughout.
Even the news, I don't know.
Well, dude, I mean, I told you a couple weeks ago
when the fake ad was Oedipal Arrangements.
Oedipal, like banging your-
Yeah, it's just- Mom.
You buy the flower and candy arranger for your mom,
and the dad just in the background the whole time
I
Mean that's out there. I like that's funny. I just thought the monologue was a little I don't know
I've heard of those jokes. No the monologue the bull times did not pretty mailed in did not kill
I thought he did better than the first one
Where I heard a story about Louie?
he's like asking Louis CK for advice,
and cause Louis CK famously just writes a 10 minute set,
and he's Louis CK, and Shane was like,
should I like write like an own set for that?
And he was like, no, no, no, no.
He was like, why not?
He's like, well, you're not as good at me at this.
Yeah, that's kinda how, I said this to TC yesterday,
and watching it, it feels like Chris Rock or Chappelle
or Louis would take that as like, hey, I'm the alpha. I said this to TC yesterday and watching it, it feels like Chris Rock or Chappelle or Louie
would take that as like, hey, I'm the alpha.
So I'm about to alpha flex on everybody.
And it didn't seem like Shane cared about it at all.
Yeah, no.
These are jokes I've done, here's a better version of them.
But he felt the room wasn't really.
Wasn't really honest.
Yeah, and it probably was fine.
Yeah, I think that's so hard to.
I like his bit of trying to,
hmm, no, you're not taking it?
All right.
His little face, he's like, oh, all right.
All right, we'll go this way now.
I think it's gotta be so hard to do the TV stuff
where it's like so much of your energy and confidence.
When you're in a room and it's going well,
you deliver things different, you seem more engaged,
and to be in like a TV crowd where it's just like,
people like this, I obviously have fans, I'm popular,
but in this room, these 20 people
are not feeling it right now.
And just like delivering it like a monologue
that has to be crazy hard.
I thought a couple things for Jake for sure Dad's House PBS show the that
landed that came after Dad's weekend Dad's weekend house it was wonderful to
a tee the little the lady he wasn't gonna introduce to them yet and all that
I've been a part of that as well but But then the um the parody of The Voice. Oh my god. The sound,
which is your bit though. Yeah. Do you know Jake's bit is um he thinks motorized wheelchairs should
be used by all of us. Okay. I mean they've got them now to a point where like I feel like used
to they were just to even the playing field.
And at some point they turned into a better option.
Oh, now we're gonna get into an arms race.
And I just don't see, I'm for equality.
Yeah, but here's the thing.
This is the way Jake has said to me before,
you'll get on that, I get on the Lime Scooter.
Oh yeah.
Love that thing.
Yeah, they're fun.
Why can't you just get on a? Just sit down, what of a sit down version of a Lime Scooter? It's a sit down Lime Scooter. Love that thing. Yeah, they're fun. Why can't you just get on a?
Just sit down.
What of a sit down version of a Lime Scooter?
It's a sit down Lime Scooter.
Yeah, what are the funny name of them?
The rascal?
The rascal, yeah.
Just get a big fat fatty on a rascal.
But it should be normal for like if I look over
and I see Dan zooming by on a scooter,
I don't think anything of it.
I should be able to look over and see him
in a souped up wheelchair.
Hell yeah.
And then you got more storage ability, yeah.
Yeah, it's like a-
Putting in the basket on there.
Like a purse for a man.
I think we're gonna get to a point.
It's just a bag on the back of your wheelchair.
I think we're gonna get to a point where it's fine.
It's totally acceptable.
No, I thought it was overall fine.
Fine episode, I guess.
Nothing special.
It wasn't as good as his other ones.
It didn't hit home runs like Nate Bargatze,
but I just thought that,
I thought a couple of beers
kind of made the whole thing great.
I have a theory that SNL's never been that good.
Okay.
Where, have you ever like go back,
like if you have, you know, Pluto and Tooby, whatever.
Sure.
There's SNL playing 24 seven,
and you watch like the old episodes,
and from start to finish,
they've been batting 500 the whole time.
You just think of SNL as the best of Chris Farley DVDs,
and when they do do the compilations
and you think of it as this awesome thing.
But even a Chris Farley episode.
If you go episode by episode and watch the whole thing,
you're like, whew.
Like Chris Farley was in bits that weren't great.
Oh yeah.
Yeah, there's probably something to that
and then everyone highlights their own era
as like overrates it.
Now if you go back and watch like the first couple years,
I think the show actually did suck.
I'm not.
They were trying to figure out their format.
Not good.
They would have Janice Ian on the first show
singing like just some real depressing song.
Yeah.
But you're probably right.
There's probably no era that was 100%.
I wonder how much longer it'll be on.
I think it's never gonna go away.
When Lorne dies.
This is the 50th year, right?
Yeah.
Yes.
Oh, okay, that's why they're calling it SNL 50.
Wait, oh.
Listen to me, like, oh, isn't it the 50th year?
Hey, let's do some kind of a... we can call it mail call or viewer mail, right? Okay.
Hey everybody it's time to answer some of today's viewer mail. I feel like I have someone over my
shoulder. You got an umpire? So I actually got some mail mail to my house
that I wanted to show you guys.
One is from the great Drop Beth,
who mailed me this book.
All right.
Which I will start reading, because I do like,
you know, when we go to Cowboys training camp
is when I read my Belichick book.
Mm-hmm.
And then this is something, who mentioned this last week?
Kirk Goldsberry.
The MVP machine. And apparently it's about baseball.
How baseball's new non-conformists are using data
to build better players.
So I'm going to read that now,
because like you, I feel like it's baseball season.
Amen.
We lost Luca.
I'll follow him on the Lakers.
I'll root for him.
I'll root against the Mavs.
But also, I'm interested in baseball.
I think the Stars might make a run this year.
It's looking good.
Okay, let's jump on that.
Right at the end, it's good.
That's how it was with the Mavs.
If they didn't make the playoffs, I couldn't tell you who's on the team. And they got emailed or not mailed, just emailed, but sent a couple of other things
that I do have videos for. I meant to open this earlier because I want to change this hat. So
somebody mailed me this. I don't know if this is a gift for any reason or maybe it's just because St. Patty's Day is coming up.
Oh, okay.
Yeah. Someone mailed me coming up. Oh, okay. There we go. But, yeah.
Someone mailed me a leprechaun hat.
Are you familiar with the Alabama leprechaun?
Oh yeah, all time, early internet video.
It's a rope hat too.
Did you know,
Jimmy Nelson?
Yes sir.
That I met the Alabama leprechaun? Tell me about him.
Boy we should do it like an hour episode someday with Jimmy and to describe it.
But once I was on a spring break with my family, my wife and family, and her mom
and brother, and they drove down from Ohio to meet us in Florida.
And I took my wife's, or I took my mother-in-law's car
to go meet my buddy TC, who was living in
somewhere Florida, right?
Where did he-
Gulf Shores, Alabama, Florida, yeah.
Where was he?
Gulf Shores was where he was a program director?
Pensacola.
Pensacola, Florida.
Which is apparently pretty close to,
like a half hour away from Mobile, Alabama.
Okay.
So I knew I'd be near TC.
He had moved away from here
to work at a small radio station in Florida.
I saw, hey, I'm gonna be like a half hour away from you.
And then we both noticed, hey, Mobile, Alabama is real close to there.
We should go try to find the tree that the leprechaun was hiding in.
Won't that be funny? That'll be something we can kill our day with.
So we went there, um,
just started asking questions and people were like, oh yeah,
you want to go like they just directed us where
to go to get to the tree. You got to talk to Tom. Yeah, you got to talk to this guy.
You got to talk to this guy. Well, it turns out we had to you have to find a lady told
us it was all a hoax. Right. God dang. And the perpetrator of the hoax was someone named Midget Sean.
Hell yeah. And apparently Midget Sean... It's like a guy named Tiny, he's a regular
sized man. Not in this case, brother. No. Midget Sean was apparently a local
dealer of some kind of narcotics. Okay. But also a bit of a prankster. And a bit short. Yeah. Big
head bigger heart they say. Kind of like Anthony Davis. Just love pranking people.
And so he climbed up in the tree and did some stuff one night. Yeah. And you know
created the legend of the leprechaun. And yeah we met Midget Sean. We had to go
meet him like go like he wouldn't just go yeah we met midget Sean we had to go meet him
like go like he wouldn't just go meet us at a openly like we had to meet him and
kind of a secret location got pictures taken with him it was it was awesome
yeah yeah and then he died a couple years later good ones go young but I
met the the leprechaun and then this I think, I feel like this might be more for Jake.
What do we got?
But it was sent to me.
Or is there a note at the bottom?
Here.
I'll keep the note and let you open,
let you take a look here.
All right.
Give it a little pause.
What do we got?
Okay. Thanks for having the Knockout League co-championship this week. Give it a little toss. What do we got? OK.
Thanks for having the Knockout League co-championship
this week.
Oh.
It's a Paige Puker's jersey.
It's not official yet.
It will be the Dallas Wings number one overall pick.
This is from Craig Frampton.
Do you believe?
He says his number, he's a DZ listener number 877, which is not gay.
And he has three Roseanne submissions.
Oh wow.
Which you'll be able, Jimmy can't give an opinion on one of them.
Because I don't think he knows who TC is.
But he says he gives TC as a submission as a Roseanne.
No comment. TC Brodnax?
Dale Hanson.
Yes.
You think he's a Roseanne?
Yeah, that's a great one.
And Kanye.
Does Kanye have the aura to be a Roseanne?
Let's keep an eye out for it.
Have you heard Roseanne do interviews lately?
Very Kanye-esque. Heard Kanye have some opinions they share.
Yeah, I saw, somebody did tell me that they're,
like that they're, it was TC in fact,
they're remastering it in HD Roseanne
and putting it out there.
I have the opinion that the militant right,
like that Trump would not have come back had they not taken Roseanne off the air.
Like they gave a cultural little.
The straw that broke the camp.
They gave them a little something.
And Roseanne got really popular,
and then she said something about like Nazis,
maybe not so bad.
Like we're taking it off the air.
I thought that was the Planet of the Apes comment.
Was it?
Yeah.
You have the specifics?
I forget the lady's name. Chicago something or other?
Said she looked like one of the Planet of the Apes people.
Oh, yeah, she was like a government lady, right?
Which you can look up a side by side photo
of her and the Planet of the Apes character
we're referencing.
It's...
It's...
I'll let you do that Google yourself at home.
I mean, it basically brings up the question,
is there any way to say that a person of color
looks like a primate without it being racist?
And I think the answer is no.
You're gonna lose that battle every time.
Cause there are some white people that look like monkeys.
Yes, Davy Spartans in fact was one that we.
Yeah, and that's okay to do.
And if we all evolved from that, then there probably should be no problem but you know gray areas it's
funny it's not it doesn't work that way with any other races and animals though
there's not like I had a black friend growing up that looked a lot like a ninja
turtle and that one didn't feel racist but now in today's culture it does.
Yeah, we used to run into this with Ezekiel Elliot
because, yeah, and I'm like,
is an Ewok like a loose primate in that uniform?
You can't do, you're a made up animal.
Yeah, but humanoid.
Kind of felt like they were going for primate.
They had societies, they're fine.
They're adorable too. And so was he. They were closed.
It's on my actual snail mail. I don't know if you guys have any emails you
wanted to hit. I just wanted to read this real quick so we're not gonna beat people
down with this as it were but we did gay not gay with Steve Noviello last week. I
think our bad beats segment is perfect for Jimmy. I'm ready.
So Bad Beats, we just want to hear from people
on tough times that you've had, whether it
was getting caught by your mom like Blake, standing up
in the hallway with your t-shirt on and your flip-flops.
All the details, thank you.
But your And One shorts are at your ankles.
Yeah, it was in that era.
No, I think this came about because pre-internet,
I was having to watch the Girls Gone Wild things at 2 AM.
Comedy Central, a little BET uncut, maybe a little Wild On.
Oh yeah.
Brooke Burke.
Brooke Burke.
She was in a Maxim in like 02 that boy young Jimmy
was familiar with it.
Anyway, 14-year- old me is there rocked up
and then here comes Sarah McLachlan singing.
Now I gotta find a way to keep this thing going
while watching these dogs that are malnourished.
I just thought, I'm sure people have struggled
through the same thing.
So now we have a segment called Bad Beats.
So tough ones like that, walk in type stories,
sample stories if you've been in the fertility game,
which I know you have. But man, we got one the other day. This is as down, bad, and horrible
as it gets. It also involves an anonymous email. The guy wouldn't send this from his
own email. His name is Sean. He said it was about 15 years ago in Houston.
Buddy got broken up with by his fiance.
They did the get together at four o'clock
on Friday afternoon and just now the weekend
is just gonna go.
End up at a strip club, says he remembers very little,
had a couple hotel rooms, planned with a crash there.
Leave the strip club and basically wake up in jail. So he doesn't know how much time has passed
but he remembers being in a car accident. We're all arrested. He was not driving but he knew the
person who was driving. He says, at some point I come to and I'm in jail. I'm alone in a cell.
I take a minute to assess then I give the defeated hello to see if anyone else is there I see her hey, man. I hear hey man from the cell next to me. It was my buddy that was driving
We could see each other we talked for a minute, but we're both still extremely drunk and decided to sleep it off
So that's where it gets weird
After trying to fall asleep for a while with no luck I
Decided it might help to rub one out. You gotta self-soothe, you know?
And it's at this point that I would like to,
taking a side for any females listening or present,
and say, almost every male that you know,
has at some point in his life been in a situation
where he's like, I'm not horny,
I have no desire to masturbate,
I just really wanna fall asleep.
Oh yeah.
I just, if I could get this out of me,
I can be asleep in the next 15 minutes.
And that's what this guy decided to do in jail.
It's strange logic.
It is, but I'm telling you.
You gotta, when the demon's in you,
you gotta get the demon out.
You gotta get the demon release.
He said, so I sit there on a cold concrete floor,
it was a drunk tank, no bed.
I pull it and mash at it a bit
while trying to pull up mental images
from past experiences.
After a while I'm successful.
Unfortunately, I didn't really think ahead
about what to do with the product of my personal joy.
Why is that not your first thought?
So I wipe my hand on the inside of my shorts and passed out.
This was my low point
There you go. Now you see what fake email my worst ever
Next morning, we found out we were in La Grange, Texas two hours from where we started. I do think of that's not a
insurmountable task of where to dispose
Because you're in a prison cell. You're just like be like a dog in the backyard
It's like you shit in a corner and. You're just like, be like a dog in the backyard.
It's like you shit in a corner,
and then you just move three feet and lay down.
Like, you know?
You don't want to just out there, though.
You're alone.
But I do understand where this guy was coming from of like,
I've got to go to sleep.
Dan's so disgusted by bad meat.
No, not at all, because I have a good one here.
But I also wonder, is this a weird time
just to mention that we're going to have Early Bird CBD sponsor this whole...
I think given Early Bird CBD's involvement with our show in general, they'll be just
fine with it.
Because now me, that could help me fall asleep.
It can.
It can.
Here's my mom calling. Answer. It can. It can.
Here's my mom calling.
Answer.
Answer, you got to.
Early bird will be cool.
Oh, hold on.
Mom.
Happy birthday.
Yay!
Happy birthday.
Happy birthday.
Happy birthday.
I'm recording, huh?
He's partying. We are recording, no, she said you're recording. We're actually recording, huh? He's partying.
We are recording.
No, she said you're recording.
We're actually live on YouTube also.
Actually, no, we're not.
We're just recording today.
OK.
I don't need her to go watching you.
Hop on right now.
There's no way she can't find it.
Yeah.
Blake thinks you couldn't find us on YouTube. Me? Yeah. Do you think, Blake thinks you couldn't find us on YouTube?
Me? Yeah.
Well, I probably could, but I'm driving right now. I just want to get the car registered.
Okay. We were just doing some bad beats, so.
Yeah.
What's bad beats?
I'll talk to you about it later, okay?
Okay.
But thank you for the call. Well, certainly, dear. You have a wonderful day. I'll talk to you about it later, okay? But thank you for the call.
Well certainly, dear, you have a wonderful day.
I'll talk to you later.
Okay, bye.
Bye.
What a sweet mom call.
So much love.
So much joy.
If you weren't recording, I feel like that registration talk
was gonna go on for 10, 15.
For a long time.
Yeah, that was a very leading statement.
That's a mom topic.
Oh my gosh, you can't wait to tell me about that.
So early birth CBD has like THC in it.
Yeah, oh yeah.
So that's why, like, I don't know that you can take it.
You work for the government.
Yeah, I do, it's a shame.
They keep saying they're eventually gonna let us do THC.
Did you have to answer an email from Elon?
Ask him what you did last week?
You worked for the government.
I don't think he got that far down the list.
OK.
List your five fires.
If I was getting federal money, maybe.
So it's dumb zone.
That's the single use discount code.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
20% off at earlybirdcbd.com.
That's the good stuff.
2 and 1 half milligrams of THC in each serving.
It is dumb zone for 20% off.
THC, THC.
So I had one here, if you want to say.
Yeah.
I'm all disgusted by all this.
Which I am in a sense, but this one's from Nathan.
He doesn't remain anonymous.
He says, Thursday's episode featured bad beats
and an update on Drop Beth.
Drop Beth, you remember she had cancer
and then got new...
Tatas.
Right. The uptops.
He says, that unlocked my old memory.
When in the pre-internet mid-90s,
I saw a at-home breast examination video cassette
on our kitchen counter.
God.
I couldn't help myself.
The video was from the public library,
just a bland doctor talking over a poorly lit video
of a breast exam.
But that was like finding gold at the time.
Yeah.
Thinking about that video now,
I just realized not only was it a sad bad beat,
doing that to a medical breast exam,
but then the update on DropBeth,
the cancer augmentation,
it made me realize my mom probably didn't rent the tape
from the library for her 13 year old horn dog son, but she did
it for her own health scare.
She was facing mortality.
Thankfully it was just a scare.
I had to wait almost 30 years to realize it from Nathan, day one, number 552.
You know all this talk of cancer and implants that we've been having over the last month.
Has made you horny?
I noticed something the other day,
my tales from the sauna.
I noticed there was a woman in the sauna,
she was probably in her 70s.
She was attractive, she was fit,
and there's no way those things
had been there the whole time.
Like you're just thinking that now?
Now that I'm thinking about it with us talking
to various female coworkers-workers and listeners
who have had this done.
Well, she could have just been enhanced without cancer.
Yes, but they were recent.
I know, but these were not...
Usually you don't go get your first set of implants at 65.
If you're getting them done then they're either a redo which is
at times necessary or they're new new. She was she was quite attractive. We got a
bunch of 70 year olds with... Well that's your wheelhouse right? Yeah yeah I don't
know about 70 but it'll be interesting to see if it slides with me as I get older. Like when I'm 50, I'd be super stoked on stuff.
I'll be like 90 year old.
Yeah, 90.
So I don't have a bad beat, but I have something for Jimmy.
That's really for all of us,
but it's better that Jimmy is here.
Clayton, put up that first picture.
I saw this, this could be today in Twitter,
but Jimmy, if you wouldn't mind reading,
just read the card that you see on your screen, please.
Let's see.
Dr. Dan, expert, plain, and fancy fucking,
evenings by appointment only.
All right, so we got a guy who's really good at that act.
I like like fancy ketchup, like fancy fucking.
Yeah.
He charges for it, okay?
Cut rate to party of six or more,
widows a specialty, and then on the back,
he's got his price list.
Oh my.
Wow.
Here's what Dr. Dan offers, Jimmy.
Just read a couple of them.
Plain insertions, $20.
With caresses, we go up to $27.
$7 charge for caressing.
$7 for caressing.
Inverted positions. You want a fancy position? That's gonna cost you more. $7 charge for caressing $7 for caressing inverted positions
You want a fancy position that's gonna cost you more. I do like doggy style being called dog fashion
With barking and yelping that's 250 a character play is an extra 250. Where's this from?
What is womb stretch somebody's internet somebody found it in their grandmother's things?
I mean it looks legit to me.
This is a legit thing.
But I wanna know what a womb stretch is.
I think you know.
Yeah, I mean, it's.
Yeah, it's Dr. Dan's deep dick in somebody.
Yeah.
Now, we're getting to, this is how you know
this is old-timey, where I believe the popularity
of oral sex has increased with our hygiene where we have all these
numbers are in the 20s and then tongue bath is 50 and a muff dive 100. Yeah
you're trying to price the customer out. What sort of psychopath would ever have
a hundred dollars? So would this bother you if you found this in your grandma's
because obviously it's a bit yeah but your grandma's into you didn't know she
was into muff dive Dive comedy.
Yeah, that'd be horrible.
That would be horrible.
Yeah.
Titty-chilling, $1.15, that makes sense.
Dr. Dan probably wants to do that.
The French Hickler.
Vaseline if needed.
$1.25 surcharge.
He's not giving you anything for free.
He's just charging for salsa.
I don't think you're, honestly, dude,
it's easy to say now that my grandparents are dead. I don't think you're honestly, dude, it's easy to say now
that my grandparents are dead.
I don't think this would affect me at all.
Oh.
I want to meet Dr. Dan.
Yeah, Gam Gam has needs.
Exactly, like just knowing that your grandma occasionally
was, you know, whatever, wanted her womb stretched.
Or her titty chewed.
Yeah, her titty chewed.
I don't know.
She likes bits. It does kind of make me wonder, like, you know, or a goody-chewed. Yeah, or a tooty-chewed. I don't know.
She likes bits.
It does kind of make me wonder,
just like being at the game the other day,
and you've made this point before about tattoos,
I mean, I've got basically friends now who are grandparents.
So what will be the grandparents of my generation
where we'd be a little more forthright about like the sex part of things?
Like will it be so weird to imagine your grandparent being sexually active when it's me and we're, it's 30 years from now.
I think there's always been like a politeness about not doing it.
Yeah. But I do think it'd be funny
Well, I mean just think of grandparents of the
people who were
In their 20s in the 80s or something are gonna be grandparents probably soon or now
right and
They were doing cocaine off each other's
Behinds and just whatever.
That's true.
You've always, probably always gone pretty hard.
I mean the children of the 60s,
the free love and the drugs and all that kind of stuff.
Like my mom had to be doing acid.
Sure.
Oh, I could've asked her.
Hey.
Cause when I was like two or one or whatever, at least what I've heard is she just left
and went to California and I just lived with my aunt and uncle for like a year.
Sounds awesome.
And I mean, she had me when she was 19, you know?
I mean, honestly, the biggest shock in that story is that she came back.
Like, that's a woman with commitment to her family right there.
Well, maybe things just didn't work out
the way she wanted them to, and that's why she came back.
Yeah, still.
I'm trying to give you some love.
Can I do a bad beat about someone else?
Yeah, absolutely.
So this is my friend Clint Frisell.
We're going to use full names here.
I'm going to be a groomsman in his wedding.
Is his dad used to do traffic for no, okay
I believe he is
Somehow kin to the Arkansas baseball coach. Okay, but I'm gonna say that like it means something
Yeah, but he had one where he his mom caught him masturbating in his childhood room and
His mom caught him masturbating in his childhood room,
and he was doing his thing, and she opens the door slightly,
and just informs him that Robin Williams had passed away.
Now, you're caught in between a rock and a hard place,
because are you capable of finishing?
Do you give up then, and go mourn with the family?
Also, we were both 35 year old men Robin Williams passed away in 2014
Do some fast math that was a 26 year old beating off at his mom's house. No, that's questionable behavior

So there's a lot of reports yesterday that there was a shooting downtown
but it was actually a
Parent fight at a cheerleading competition in downtown Dallas. It was at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center.
You get a lot of action there.
Do you have the video of it?
I do not.
I'm a poor talk show host.
Someone said there might have been a video.
Well, I mean, I've seen video of people running.
And I wanted to play the game of what do we think they looked like.
The initial fight.
The video of the fight, yeah.
Yeah, so it was at a cheerleading competition.
And I told you guys.
What do you mean?
Is this a racial thing?
It can be.
I'm not in charge of what you feel like doing right now.
So it's a fight.
Two dads fighting at a cheer competition.
What's your guess?
As far as why?
Or what they look like?
What they look like.
Describe these men to me.
Cheer competition, we're fired up for competition.
Ed Hardy.
Ed Hardy dads?
Yeah.
Okay. That's my guess.
Now, it was over nachos.
Oh.
Has your view changed?
Are we still Ed Hardy dad?
Yeah.
Okay, Ed Hardy dad.
No, no.
Yeah, no. Ed Hardy dads are not ordering nachos. Well, Ed Hardy dads. No, no. Yeah, no.
Ed Hardy dads are not ordering nachos.
Well, they are now.
They got the stuff 10 years ago.
I think we're clearly in the heavyweight category now,
though.
Okay.
So just kind of country folk or just heavy black women?
I'm gonna go, my guess, I haven't seen the actual-
But these were dads?
It wasn't moms? These were dads, I believe. I'm gonna go, my guess, I haven't seen the actual video of it. But these were dads, it wasn't moms?
These were dads, I believe.
All right.
I'm gonna go two heavyset gentlemen,
one Hispanic, one redneck.
Okay.
It's my final guess.
Where did you get that nachos note?
I believe I have some insider information
with the police and fire department.
Okay.
Oh.
Because it was like a pole fell down and made a clang,
so people thought there were gunshots. Yeah. There were never gunshots. All right, here we go. Okay, because I, like a pole fell down and made a clang. So people thought there were gunshots.
Yeah.
There were never gunshots.
Here we go.
OK, because I actually had, I mean,
in looking at Twitter, some other people
jumped on there saying the police are lying
and they're covering this up just to make sure the.
That appears to be a Latino right there.
But in good shape, not really heavy set.
Yeah, that's a middle weight.
Yeah.
I was telling you guys a couple of months
ago that when I went to go pick up my race
packet for the half marathon, I went to one of these deals
with my daughter.
It just happened to be at the convention center the same day,
which on one hand is where I learned
that the term nationals for cheerleading is bullshit.
What do you mean?
Well, I think they just put the name on every competition
to make you feel like you're the big one.
Doesn't it feel like nationals would be once a year?
Yeah.
Like everyone would be there?
So they had these all the time?
Yeah.
Wasn't a big deal, then why did you film it?
I didn't film it.
My daughter wanted to film a couple of the competitions
and I deleted them from my phone.
As I did with all the pictures she asked me to take
of her and the cheerleaders that day.
But there's Jake just filming these cheerleaders.
I've never gone to my deleted files also.
Is that the one where they did the 9-11 tribute?
No, but that's amazing.
It's no memorial car pot, but it'll do.
So there's no shooting, right?
There's no shooting.
There was a poll.
I mean, they're not telling us there's a shooting.
Yeah, it's a stanchions.
It knocked over, like my son, when he's waiting in line
at those, and then people just, it's what people do.
The old King's a Comedy bit, right?
You see the-
Start running and people are gonna run.
It was like all the streets are around,
there was a flood, like more people got injured
with everyone stampeding every-
At least 10 people to the hospital.
They were, one of the big deals was trying
to reunite everybody, cause they thought
they were shooting and like kids are just thrown in closets.
A lot of bad dads were discovered that day.
Dude.
I took off.
I don't know where Sarah is.
No doubt.
She's gotta survive.
Yeah, that's tough.
You'd almost rather just be real.
That's a tough.
No one's talking about what a pussy you were after work.
That's a George Costanza.
That's a tough reuniting with your wife and daughter.
Yeah.
After 40 minutes, you're just like,
I thought you guys are right behind me.
You have to like tear your shirt or something.
Yes.
I don't know, like I saw him come around the corner,
they're like, yeah, babe, there was no shooter.
They're like, oh. Ooh. That around the corner. They're like yeah, babe. There was no shooter. I Go
Police are covering it up
That's why they're yelling that yes. Yeah, like no babe. I saw it. I got out of there. It is a tough
I mean I was like I said I've seen four or five videos of just people running and that's just what do you do?
That's what you do, right? What do they say to do? Oh, I don't know I hit the deck
Could get into over like it's I just know like schools get no room. Yeah or attack them What do they say to do? Oh, I don't know. Like hit the deck?
Get into a room, I guess you know like schools.
Get into a room.
Yeah.
Attack them.
Dude, there was a time when we were like at our worst,
I feel like, of like a year of shootings
and maybe the FBI or somebody put out like a video.
I'm like, come on, dude.
Yeah.
In the middle of that, I'm gonna be like,
what was the training? Prov provided to me by a video
that I watched one time?
I think it is good to point out,
you just got a WNBA jersey,
that ladies are doing school shootings now.
Have you seen that?
I have not.
Yeah, there's been two.
Well, okay, tricky.
Okay, there's been one.
What do we do?
And another one, depending on how Jake
feels politically today. Well, that's the thing. I do we do? And another one, depending on how Jake feels politically today.
Well, that's the thing.
I don't think it's depending on how I feel politically.
This is one of my favorite things is shooter volleyball,
like where each side is like,
well, this one's there at the gun range,
and they're like, ah-ha-ha, yeah,
but I think they were actually,
you have to figure out who can claim the shooter.
Yeah.
But it's really hard when the shooter's trans.
Yeah.
Because it's like, if they're
trans does that mean they belong with the left? But what if they transition to be like
a Nazi conservative man? What a move. The Caitlyn Jenner. Yeah. You know? Interesting.
Transition and then talk shit about trans rights? Just a traditional lady. Yeah. It's
an unbelievable grift. Yeah. Well, it's like the,
you know, apparent assassination attempts of Trump. The way the volleyball was going there,
you know, people were wanting it. Some were wanting it to be an immigrant. Yeah. Or whatever.
But then when they find, oh, he's voted for Trump twice and he was, oh, okay, well.
Don't hear as much about it at that point.
It's just nice to see in a field predominantly
staffed by white men.
Yeah.
Seeing some diversity around.
We really are.
Because, you know, equality comes in all shapes and sizes,
and it's, we're putting up better numbers.
It's for sure a Debbie MBA MBA situation,
but we're not keeping score, and they keep working at it.
Yeah, there was, I mean, even the,
there was a black male recently that did one,
but his stuff was all like super,
we need a come-town shooter.
We need a shooter who's just,
What does that mean?
Like, we can't have, the most recent shooter,
Stavros is too successful.
The one who was a black guy,
he was really into like far right wing media.
Oh, I see.
We need like a Chapo Trap House or like a far left.
We just don't get those.
I wonder how many calls you have like this.
Man accidentally shoots himself
at a North Texas volleyball tournament.
I've seen that a few times.
I would imagine.
The Cheddar Bob.
What a, we had a kid that shot himself in the femur like 16 year old. Did it take
it off? No they I just remember we were sitting there and he was very very calm.
Not good. And we're like all right hey what's going on? He's like I think I
shot myself. No dude that's terrifying. Like you think you did? And he was like
here like oh well there's a bullet hole there. So yeah, we're gonna go ahead
and run you up to the hospital.
And someone was there and it's like,
we had to move him.
And he was like, hey, do you think you can move a little bit?
Somebody asked him and he went to move his leg
and it just independently moved.
And you're just like, stop, stop.
You're no longer moving.
So is it a common thing?
In the case of this one, like I said,
the guy's at a youth volleyball tournament,
you know, he's got the he's got the gun on him, shoots himself, takes himself to the hospital.
How often do you run into people being like, I'm not getting in with y'all, I'm not paying.
Pretty, pretty. All the time?
Yeah, a lot of times.
How does that work?
So I think for liability reasons,
we are not allowed to discuss.
We don't know what anything costs.
We can't tell you, yeah, it's expensive,
don't get in with us.
So there's just liability stuff.
If we see you, we kind of have to take you.
But a lot of people are just like, now I'm good.
That's a thing I never knew.
I don't know how old I was when I learned that pay you actually pay.
I just thought it's all part of the thing.
And like, you don't cheap like I don't have to.
If my house catches on fire, do I then have to pay for the fact that you
you don't put the fire out? No, that one's on the house.
We're making all this money on people having the flu.
So is this because you go having the flu. So is this because?
Not needing to go to the ER, but doing it anyway.
Is it because insurance is involved?
I think they have, it's like everything where it's, you know, 500 bucks if you pay in cash
and then-
Yeah, that's-
3000.
Blue Cross gets involved.
Seems insane.
Yeah.
What are we gonna do about all that?
Who knows? Where's another Luigi, you know?
Whoa. You know what, I just say vote. Yeah, make your voice heard. That usually helps.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm going with voting too. Everyone vote. So you're gonna amend... Or call your congressman.
Need another Luigi to just vote. To spread the word about voting.
Well, yes, to be able to vote in Luigi's stead,
because he now cannot.
He now cannot.
He no longer has a vote.
And in the event that he's found, I guess, innocent,
probably not getting into politics, I would imagine.
I can't imagine.
I can't imagine he's getting off. I don't know, dude. I've somebody that, well, I would imagine. Can't imagine. Can't imagine he's getting off.
I don't know, dude.
I've...
Well, I mean, they obviously put the gun in his bag.
Oh, yeah.
I thought they had a pretty strong chain of custody of this firearm being sourced, used,
hidden.
Yeah, no, it looked very much like the book.
We just got it the entire time.
Yeah.
A little weird.
We talked last week about how we're seeing some measles
outbreaks.
Now the vaccines are lame.
West Texas, we mentioned has had a number of these situations.
Lubbock, they actually had a death.
Oh, not West Texas.
Not the city West Texas, out in West Texas.
But here's one thing that we didn't really account for.
Did you guys know we have a large Mennonite population
in West Texas?
Hell yeah.
You did?
Amish light.
Yeah.
That's what it is.
Got him in Waco, too.
It's Amish?
Kind of.
It's very similar.
Amish-ish?
Yes.
Amish adjacent.
Yes.
Amish Brethren? Yes. Amish-adjacent? Yes. Amish Brethren
Hutterites? It's like Amish guys that can use power tools. Basically that's the way
it's been described to me. They have a huge community in West Texas and they
don't really do the VAX. So that is not helping matters out there. And I can't
really confirm this but a guy who lives out there told me
that they're also known for running drugs
for the cartels through West Texas.
Huh, that was a curve ball.
Yeah, but you hear about stuff like that, right?
Or what was Mitt Romney's family
where his great grandfather was a Mormon community that fled to Mexico
It's I've heard yes, and they like
Gotten to they like had to protect their land pretty regularly
So there's just a group of cartel like Mormons down. Yeah, I thought that's exactly what it is. Yeah
You just think of them as like hey hey, you know, they turn,
I don't know really what they do,
I was gonna say turn butter, but you know.
They're turning butter.
Sounds like they would do that.
Yeah.
There's never been like a great Amish athlete though.
You've got your Sandy Koufax, great Jewish athlete.
Quite different.
You've got Tongan.
Boy, is there a gap in that list.
I'm just saying, just as far as anything. Yeah, there's always there's a Tongan. There's a Jeremy Lin was a great. Yeah
Where's uh, where's the Amish?
Represented where's your arm at first Amish referee in the Super Bowl? So you could tell your little Amish friend, you know, yeah, there's no representation
Yeah, I could no representation. Yeah.
I could see it like a Jebediah.
Like DEI should have had to hire one Amish.
One Amish guy.
Yeah.
Like he's not a power hitter, but he gets on base.
You know?
Yeah.
And like he rakes.
The shock to me is not that there's not
a famous Amish athlete.
The shock to me is that this wasn't a movie
made in like 1993 with some down-on-his-luck scout
played by
Yeah, played by like Jeff Daniels or something. I suppose that's the whole plot of Kingpin, right Kingpin exactly
You know miss bowler. Yeah
There's the he didn't have to go live with as you, the Jebediah family, but he can throw 98.
Yeah, what a fun movie.
Instead of going to Africa, what was the basketball movie?
The Air Up There.
The Air Up There.
I believe, with Kevin Bacon.
Kevin Bacon.
They're just a Western PA.
The Mavericks always know how to read The Room.
What have they done now?
I'm sure this was actually out for a few days,
but the timing is just not smiling upon them.
Press release that came out today announcing season ticket
prices going up almost 9% next year.
Yeah, you got to back that.
Don't put that press release out, even if it was scheduled.
You got to hit unscheduled.
Yeah, full season members.
I wonder if they are going to... That price change
will help them at least break even with all the cancellations, because I've heard from
quite a few people, Cam. They're fucking with people now, right? This is full, like, free
fall. I mean, it makes you believe more of a conspiracy that they're trying
to really sour the fan base so that nobody's mad when they leave town.
They're just like next week we like beers are $30 now come on down. They are
trying to say that they're not the press Reese's worded a bit interestingly but
they're saying they're going up but basically not as much as other tickets
across the country.
Like, hey, they always got to go up a little.
Look at the Lakers raising their prices.
Yeah, look at these psychopaths over here.
Where do they get the mind?
You know, we did lower prices on all the Luka merch.
What do you guys want?
That was my favorite gift. I would always get my brother sarcastic Christmas gifts.
My dad as well, big Republican guy,
got him like a signed Hillary Clinton book.
But I got my brother a Miles Austin jersey
that I founded an academy in like 2019, years
after he'd left.
Miles Austin dated Kim Kardashian.
Did he?
A lot of people don't know that.
Yeah, so the team, for their part,
is saying that this is reflecting, quote,
better reflects value in a fan experience with upgrades
and access to in-game entertainment and member
benefits for season ticket.
I like the in-game entertainment called Luca.
Just the back of seats now have the airline screen.
Oh, they're gonna have to do something.
You can play the song of terror while we're losing.
Now you're getting sad too.
I know.
It's a sad situation.
Do another shooting story.
Yeah, something picturesque. Let's go over to Jimmy. Would you save anybody any lives over the weekend I mean, all my stories are. I had a long-standing theory get an outlier thrown into it.
OK.
Have I discussed the diagram of the grocer
or the homeless man, the bigger is wiener?
Have I discussed that with you all yet?
Hold on.
The grocer, the person, the bigger the wiener?
The homeless person, specific to that.
The gross person, the wiener.
The wiener.
The wiener.
The wiener.
The wiener.
The wiener.
The wiener. The wiener. The wiener. The wiener. The wiener. The wiener. The wiener. The w, the bigger his wiener. Have I discussed that with y'all yet?
Hold on, the grosser the person, the bigger the wiener?
The homeless person, specific to that community.
Okay.
But just the gnarlier the homeless guy.
And you saw like a really dirty guy with a tiny little?
The tiniest.
Oh, that's unfortunate.
Because he swung a hammer at us,
so we had to call the police, handle the situation, while waiting, and with the police.
He pulled his pants down and went,
bet you wanna cut this off.
And you're standing 10 feet away just like,
sir, please put your wiener away.
Now, was it cold?
No, it was warm out.
Oh, okay.
I was trying to help him out a little bit.
You got the guys back, and I respect that.
I'm used to that excuse.
What if he's a grower?
It's very cold, honey.
Gross. He could be a grower. It's very cold, honey. Gross.
He could be a grower.
That's very true, I didn't ask him.
But yeah, he was very shouty.
I feel like if he's gonna grow,
he's growing in that moment though, Blake.
What?
The adrenaline.
Why did he think that y'all were there to cut it off?
I believe he was having a mental episode of some sort.
Yeah. So it's all lining up, the story's lining up. he was having a mental episode of some sort.
So it's all lining up, the story's lining up.
But yeah, that was a longstanding belief that has held true for many years.
I could see it, yeah.
Probably just able to get away with,
it's like when people say, like, hotter, you know,
bigots say this, that hotter women are crazier.
Like, this guy's just been able to get away
with anything with this giant hog over here,
and all of a sudden life's coming for him.
There were a couple stories in the local news today
about bees, have you ever responded to a bee related call?
No, maybe one, like an allergic reaction,
but nothing crazy.
Okay, I don't know, I think I just based most of what Jimmy's life is like of the Rob Lowe show
Star 911. Yeah, the most accurate depiction of the show fucking rips. Yeah, it shows incredible
I can't get anyone to watch it at the station. It's so good
And I think it might be getting canceled, but I know they did the
Okay, like they finale, they ended it.
You don't cancel Rob Lowe.
On their own terms.
Rob Lowe chooses to not come back.
You don't cancel Rob Lowe.
All right, there's your dues.

Shane Gillis and Alexander
Lieutenant love tunnel
It is my birthday. I'm in the Virgin Islands.
So this is one is from, for Jake.
He sent a picture of Epstein's Island.
Oh cool.
Little St. James.
Chris Ivanovskis.
I don't think I really know what the Virgin Islands are
outside of Epstein.
Dear Petter of the Possum,
let's see, my birthday is today. I have a handy tap a handicap tag hang tag question. So the the thing you hang. Mm-hmm. You said you
use your grandpa's right? No I use my buddy's grandma's. Okay. No relation.
My dad is blind. Well, he was.
Let's hope there's an afterlife
and that he isn't blind there as well.
When he died last fall,
I inherited or found his handicap placard.
No, Dan, he didn't drive.
It expires in two years.
Is it okay for me to use it?
I think if family wealth passes down,
I think handicap sticker should too.
It's an interesting point.
I'm going hard yes.
Yeah.
Moral gray area, you're in the wrong, but just do it.
You're keeping your father's memory alive
You're what he you're the right you're in the right now. I take it all back
He would want you to part closer
This from Kendall in Texas
dear beef bruv
The rearranger of the IUD
Shout out for my birthday last year Blake mocked me because it's actually on February 29th and I included in my request that I
should get special treatment because I only get a birthday every four years.
This year I also request special treatment because I don't get a real
birthday so I need more extra special attention to make up for the lack of a
real birthday. My leader is Jake's Dorabel Fraier theme song. Blake's cats who were rejected from the car that crashed last week in Hood County.
More Blake from D2DF Rick.
And then he says PS Brandi Lynn Bristow, the lady from the colony with all the
dead cats is definitely a Roseanne.
Yeah. I mean... Without even looking I mean, yeah, come on. If you were found with dead cats, there's a high
chance of Roseanne in your county. And finally, I have an email from Phil, the
Hollywood DF, it says here. He is 61 today the great Phil and yeah he's good
dude great dude he's been in with us in studio was on the DZ RV one of the few
guys about the first 30 minutes of the Oscars probably oh yeah he said he was
having an I talked to him yesterday he was having an Oscars party the lighting
and this day March 3rd in 1991 is the day that motorist Rodney King was severely beaten by Los Angeles police officers.
Well, I mean, it's not funny.
At all.
No?
Well, there's almost certainly some funny things about it, including motorist.
It says here he was a motorist. It says here he was a motorist.
I know, but that distinction is not used
in any normal language at all.
Motorist.
I don't think Rodney King's famous enough to not.
I know, noted car enthusiast.
Yeah, motorist.
Yeah.
Like, in what other scenario would you ever use that?
Not just a pedestrian.
Yeah, yeah.
He's a motorist.
He was pulled over.
Dude, you know how it is when you're out there,
you get a little upset at another motorist.
No one says that.
This is the day in 2021 that former NFL player Kellen Winslow, the second, was sentenced to 14 years in prison for multiple rapes and other sexual offenses against five women.
Five women who were all much older.
And on this day, same year, 2021,
the manager of the Texas power grid fired.
After the February deadly blackouts
that left millions of people without electricity
and heat for days.
That might have been what turned us
onto the golden parachute,
because I think he walked away
with a pretty good sum of money.
Yeah.
Those were wild times.
Other birthdays today, we have Herschel Walker.
How long have you been on the Force?
I was still a few years on.
Probably like four years.
You just lived there for a few days?
It was fun.
Yeah, dude had to bid.
Yeah, whenever crazy stuff like that happens,
just all rules go out the window,
and you're just like making runs,
and no one's yelling at you to clean toilets.
You're just like, this all sucks for everybody.
You're just goofing off and making runs.
That's cool.
It was fun.
Today's the birthday of Jamie Newberg.
Nice.
Stefan Robita, 48. I said Herschel Walker already. Neil Heaton, 65. I called him when I was a kid.
Michael Thomas. I'm gonna work with what I got. Michael Thomas, 32. Crazy. How did that just, just done? He was awesome. Crazy.
He's crazy? Okay, I thought you meant the whole situation is crazy. I think Mike had some issues.
Oh, you have inside info.
Just a Saints receiver?
Yeah.
Jason Tatum, 27.
Corny.
Brian Leach, 57, the first Texas-born NHL player.
I agree with Blake Corny and that I think this is the only way I could
stomach another Lakers Celtics finals is if it means Luca gets to beat the
Celtics with the Lakers. Like if we're trying to draw all the story lines
obviously that they'll be come everywhere from the national media if
it's Lakers Celtics already but if Luca gets another crack but this if it's Lakers-Celtics already. But if Luca gets another crack, but this time it's with LeBron,
just looking at Tatum the other night,
yelling, oh, F outta here, to the Cavs,
and the Cavs come back and bust their ass late,
that would be great.
Tone Locke, 59.
That was also a home game for them.
That didn't make any sense to me.
I understand what you're saying,
but I identify with the masculine urge to just yell, fuck out of here,
somebody any chance you get.
So even though they were at home.
And do it at their bench or something.
I don't know, that was lame.
Yeah.
Looking at your fans.
Julie Bowen, 55.
Who's that?
She's from Modern Family or Happy Gilmore.
Is she in the remake?
No, the old one.
Veronica Barnes. She's the old one. Veronica Barnes.
She's the blonde.
Okay.
I was just gonna pass over Tone Locke
as the star of Surf Ninjas.
Oh wow, yeah.
Prominently featured with Rob Schneider.
A classic.
I bet they're still friends.
David Faustino is 51.
That's Bud Bundy.
He gave me a cameo once. That's right. Jessica Beale 43. Charlie Brooker is 54. He is the creator of Black
Mirror. Was Jessica Beale there when they drove
Bed Affleck to rehab? No. And Buddy Velastro is 48. The Chef who is the star
of the show Cake Boss. Born on this day now dead, Alexander Graham Bell, Charles Ponzi.
Of the Scheme? Uh huh.
And James Doohan, that Scotty in Star Trek.
Dead on this day, still dead, Luke Costello, Roger Bannister, the first to run a
four-minute mile, and Chris Mortenson
of The Reportinson.
Don't laugh at that. Why not?
Yeah, that's great stuff.
That's good, clean fun.
That is.
I mean, I worked on that all last night.
I said, this is going to really be great
as we round out the show.
So this is the point of the program
that we like to call Closing Remarks, and
today it is actually brought to us by Scenario. Is that right? That's right.
What's Scenario? Well we are, mostly we do pharmacy services. This is Brad Wheeler,
the great. Wait, I can use that name, right? okay learn it should usually ask before I did I made sure to ask
Yeah, so we have we we we specialize in pharmacy services, but we do offer data services
So our data services were born out of the pharmacy and healthcare space
So we started off working with a lot of patient data and things that you would work with in
For a pharmacy, but we realized a couple years ago that lots of people face the same kind of data issues.
So whether you're a retailer or a restaurant, everybody is dealing with financial data in
a lot of ways.
So we've in the past couple of years broadened our services.
So now we offer data services to basically everyone.
A lot of our customers tend to be smaller customers
who don't have a data team.
They just have a lot of data.
Maybe that looks like you're dealing with QuickBooks data
or you're dealing with marketing data
or you're dealing with nearly any kind of data
that you're kind of getting buried with.
Sometimes that's a good symptom is, do I have a lot of excel files that I'm managing over and over and I'm dealing with so
we we were on the show a couple a few months ago and kind of talked about our services and
Got a couple of leads from it
So it was enough to convince the company to actually sign on as a as an official dumb zone sponsor
So we were thinking about what would what would be ways that we could kind of showcase some of the things
that we can do with data.
We thought the March Madness tournament
might be a good opportunity.
So we do try to make data fun.
So some of the things that we do
just kind of have fun with data.
So what we decided to do was create
an online bracket submission tool. So Aaron's sitting over here in the corner. He's
gonna pull it up for us in just a second. So he created...
This is Aaron over here?
This is Aaron Cunningham.
Okay, I like your, um, the bios that you sent us on different guys.
Yeah.
Aaron apparently just likes to code. Can I read any of this?
Yeah, absolutely.
You emailed us that he doesn't drink, he doesn't smoke, he doesn't leave the house, he only lives to code and F because he has three kids. So he has lots of
sex and when he's not doing that he's coding. You got it. Nailed it. Okay. And you missed the part
there. Oh, you want me to now, you don't want me to edit things? Yeah go for it. Yeah. I get yelled at for reading everything. I thought I edited that down into the funniest part.
The funniest part is you missed it. The two wives, no? You didn't notice that? Okay explain
why that's funny. I just I thought that just meant he had been divorced or something. No,
literally lives with two wives three kids. What does that mean?
Aaron do you want to come on Mike and explain yourself or?
Are you Mormon is it legal
Not
Are you legally married to one of them? You can't yes, of course. Okay, you're not legally of course, of course
Yeah, but you have course. Okay, you're not legally married. Of course. Of course.
But you have another lady that lives with you
that you also have sex with.
Yes.
Do they have sex with each other?
Yes.
Fuck yeah.
Did the three of you share a bed?
If I was looking.
It's really hot.
Yeah, it is.
Yeah.
So one of them has their own room.
Damn.
They like to...
I don't even want to hear about this March Madness thing.
Yeah, I know.
You literally live with two ladies.
We do.
One of them has her own...
So one of them is the main wife that you've... is in your master bedroom.
We've been married for 15 years.
But things were getting stale?
No, not at all.
Oh, no.
We didn't ask for this.
It just happened.
How'd you meet the-
You just found a stray one day and brought her in.
Yeah, how'd you meet her?
She's one of our very best friends,
part of our friend group.
COVID happened and we were all isolating like pros.
She was the first one of the friend groups
to reach back out and say,
man, I really wish hanging out.
I really miss hanging out, I should say.
And we said, okay, cool.
You know, well, we're all vaccinated.
You know, let's get back together and start hanging out
and come get in this bubble.
So when hanging out,
is this when the first amorous thing occurred?
It had never occurred previous to that?
Never occurred previously.
It wasn't something we set out to do. It just happened. And did the first point of love occur between
your wife and her or just all the three of you or you and her or what? Us. The three.
And it's been almost four years now. I just... Wait, you don't drink or smoke? No. Okay,
because I would think you get a little drinking in you, a little one thing, and you're just silly
and you're laughing about something and all of a sudden.
This is living together though, this ain't that.
No, but the first time, it's the first time, you know.
She moved in with us about,
we were building a new house at the time.
And she moved in with us when we moved into the new house.
And that was three years ago.
How old are your kids?
They're eight, 10, and 12, all boys.
How do you explain this to them?
We were very open with them from the very beginning.
Dad's appeal.
Yeah, they have to be like, my dad is the coolest.
Like, I always thought my kids would think I was cool
because I had like a radio.
Yeah, no.
They don't.
It's three boys.
I just kind of wanted to leave situations better
than I found them. And you know, we love it.
We love our little slice of heaven.
Now, do you ever go sleep in the extra room?
Like, okay, I want to not sleep with someone tonight.
And just let the two ladies be together.
Sure. If I'm gone for business,
she steals my spot on the bed.
Yeah.
So as far as like PTA-
I've never been this hard.
PTA and just like the normal shit you have to explain.
I wish you could meet them. They're wonderful and amazing.
We can.
You will meet them.
We will. They are invited.
I'm just saying as far as working through-
Cancel everything else we have planned this week.
Tomorrow we interview this guy and his ladies.
Your kids go to a school.
Okay, well I mean I don't know,
home school is not out of the realm of possibilities here.
So what do you say to people?
Like can the third woman or the third person
like go pick the kids up?
Sure.
Even though they're not like a legal guardian
Okay, so you have three incomes. No, I'm sole income. Okay, they don't work. Nope. So your house is spotless. Yes, it is. Awesome
It's a good setup. Fuck you, Aaron
But congrats to Brad
for They're one of their very best friends. You can tell you all the... Oh yeah, no, they're great. But congrats to Brad for knowing
that I needed to read that comment.
I was gonna say, yeah, Brad did, yeah.
Brad plowed through it.
And this is why we read everything.
He knew he would get yelled at for that.
And then he said, no, this is that important.
And you were right, Brad, the great instincts.
And you have a company or something?
Oh yeah, con with your...
Aaron is our head of development.
He's fantastic, he can code anything.
So we called him up and said, hey...
He can pull that off.
Yeah, this guy can do anything.
He can do anything.
We've got an idea for this bracket.
So in one weekend, he came out and made this bracket submission tool.
So just like you guys, I don't know any teams.
I'm going through manually clicking these teams blindly, knowing who they are. And like Aaron, can
you make this easier? Like I don't know who these teams are. So he's like sure
and he made an AI engine that will just pick the teams for me. So he's got it
pulled up here. You can see you can just click yawn pick for me. It takes it just
a second. And what it's doing is it's randomly picking each team. So that way...
Okay so it's AI but it's not waiting records and all that.
Yeah, we're doing random picks.
And then what we're doing is we're having AI explain to you
why those random picks were good.
That way, if you have a conversation with somebody,
you can tell them, oh, I picked Oakland
because of whatever this description is here,
I can't quite read it.
So, and you could pick again, you can just say, try again,
it'll just randomly give you another selection and whenever it comes back with
one that you're happy with or you can come in and edit these picks then all you have to do is just
give us your email and then confirm that you're over 18 and we have a couple of checkboxes. So
you don't have to do the random? You don't have to do the random. Okay you could fill it out in
your own and win this thing. 100%. And what do you win if you win? So we are giving away
four tickets to any cowboy game of your choice next season. Even preseason.
Even preseason. We're giving away four tickets and the parking pass because the
parking is expensive. So there are personal season tickets so they're very
good, not personal, there are business season tickets so they're very good. Not personal, there are business season tickets,
so they're very good.
They're like at the row nine or something
on the 50 yard line.
So it's a great prize.
And we're not trying to give anything away.
I mean, sorry, we're not trying to sell your information
or mine your information or do anything with it.
All we're trying to do is spread the word
and show how we can work with Theta
because then what we're doing with all the submissions
that we get is we have a dashboard
that then shows all the standings and get is we have a dashboard that then shows all
the standings and rankings. Now one challenge that we have is that they don't list the teams. The teams that are actually playing in March
Madness aren't released until March 16th. So we have another couple of weeks.
We wanted to have time for people to get to know us and maybe go and enter. So what we're doing is anyone can go and make
an entry today and it will all be based on last year's teams.
And so if you just wanted to go in there,
make an entry while you're at it,
it just takes a couple of seconds.
You can do it on your phone.
Just enter your email address, check that you're over 18.
If you would like to receive emails from us,
then we'll email you and let you know the standings.
We'll just send a couple of them.
Let you know when the season starts,
let you know who won, that kind of thing.
And then there's an option there to say
you would be interested in learning more
about working with scenario.
But essentially, what we do from a data standpoint
is just work with data.
So if you hover over, for example,
one of those bar charts there from one of those seeds,
you can kind of see some of the things that we do.
So what we're showing here is like,
what percentage of the people are picking the one seed?
And as you hover over each of those, you can see the breakdowns of those. That's super cool. What we're hoping here is like what percentage of the people are picking the one seed and as you hover over each of those You can see the breakdowns those that's super cool
What we're hoping is people kind of imagine start to imagine seeing their data in this way. So if anyone is interested
First of all site, there's no reason not to sign up for this for the cowboy tickets for this contest. It's super easy
And then we will email out at the end of the month who won,
and we'll give those tickets away.
And then we are an official sponsor of the show,
so we'll have a few ads run when it comes time closer
to actual March Madness to remind people to go
and make those official picks.
We wanted to come in early just to get the process started.
So again, anyone can go in and make early picks.
And if you forget to go back and make your official picks, once the teams are
announced, no worries, we'll keep those picks in there and they'll just be based on the seed. So if you happen to pick the number one seed
from the east, then whoever happens to be picked as the number one seed will be your pick. We give points out to standard base scoring. So
first, first round gets one point, second round gets two points, and you get more points as the round goes on.
None of us from Scenario who made this particular thing are college basketball fans. We don't follow college basketball.
We just thought this would be a fun way for us to kind of show some of the things that we can do.
So we're working with data all the time. Again, it doesn't matter what your source is, we can work with that data and create dashboards for you. So we're excited to be a sponsor of the show. And I think Sean
brought some gifts as well.
Sean, who's copy points.
One wife.
Yeah, one wife it does say here.
Thank you.
Four daughters used to make a keep an Excel spreadsheet with Gregor drops for groups for
why they didn't suck.
Also says Epstein didn't kill himself.
Boy, what a freaking thud that was over the last few days.
And then Lisa over here does not have a wife or a husband is still pissed about
the Luca trade. I know.
How many wives?
I know Lisa.
None. And uh, likes one of my favorite episodes to listen to is Dan explaining what is half
of 69.
What did I say?
What was that bit?
Throw that, just throw it.
You're trying to explain how much the 6.90 a month subscription was and like two nines,
one going down, at one point Jake called you f. At one point, Jake called you feral.
Called what?
He called you feral.
You're Googling.
What do we have here, Dan?
What do we have?
Are they all the same?
No, they're not.
All right.
Let's take a look.
Okay, I deserve this.
It is t-shirt time.
I've got the namaste sober.
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
Thanks, guys.
Oh, banana, single banana.
Oh, that's dope.
I often will go to the grocery store to buy a single banana.
No, but their stuff is really cool.
I need to hook them up with my parents.
I think about like.
Some Argyle print.
Oh, very nice.
Like, my parents have a small business. They don't know a ton about computers,
but they have like, they have way too much paperwork
and Excel, like they need someone to actually
visualize it for them.
So Brad, I wasn't paying attention to anything you said.
What's the call to, I was still thinking about two wives.
Sure, so what we're gonna do is we're gonna.
The call to action for.
We're gonna have.
The website though for this.
Yeah, so scenario.com slash bracket madness. We realize that's gonna be hard to explain and remember
So we're gonna we've sent a link over to add it to your dumb zone page
So listeners will be able to go to the dumb zone comm and click on a link not the dumb zones
Just dumb zone. Sorry dumb zone comm and there will be a link as a coder
You understand what I'm saying as far as you don't want the S on the bare fight whiskey?
Yeah.
Alright.
So we'll make it easy for you guys.
Can you go back over there for a second?
Yeah.
You want him to sit here?
No, this is fine.
You got more?
Do they fight?
No.
But they fought.
Sure, we have, you know, disagreements and squabbles like any other couple.
Do you team up ever?
Oh, that's a big thing.
You know what I mean?
Oh yeah.
Oh, you're full of shit.
If there's a dispute somewhere.
Yeah.
Say again?
I said we are a team.
Oh, this fucking guy.
But there's no disputes?
Not about the things that you're thinking about, no.
Oh, I just mean anything in the house.
Yeah, just like a little, like she's being.
What to eat for dinner, yeah, that must be a nightmare. Really we we are so I mean we are just so very blessed
I know it sounds boring and I know Brad thinks I'm about the most boring person ever but we are I mean Brad's wrong
No, I don't think that that's the reason I wanted him here. I want to hear about like the division
Conflict like are they ganging up on you and then you sort of do whatever you want.
That has to happen sometimes.
And you're like, now Samantha is being a bitch today.
You're right sweetie, like gang up on her a little bit.
Does the newer wife get it,
like can she get onto the kids?
Well.
Cause I think I'd be like, who are you?
We have to get onto the kids much.
They have to.
Oh, cause of course they're perfect.
I mean they're not, but I mean, sure.
We knew going into this because I'm an engineer,
I'm all about researching.
I knew that it was gonna be difficult
for Faith coming into this, you know.
Giving up a lot of things that she probably thought
were not going to happen the way that they're happening now,
you know, so we knew that she had to be
equal, on equal footing. Obviously, you'd think that, oh, you know, my wife of 15 years, you know, is conceding in some way or that this is some sort of consolation. It's just not that way at all.
How are your parents? They're very accepting.
Goddamn. Oh, I don't, I hang out with too many dirt bags where you're genuinely
nice and I don't know how to handle it. I know that's the thing because I'm like hey grab the
microphone like hey so does she such nuts. I'm like this is just a wholesome nice
family. Yeah. Like I don't have anything. Adorable. Yeah. I was I was a music
minister for four or five years I mean that's like I said I like to I like to
live leave things better than I found them.
And that's, with this relationship.
Kind of an Elon type thing, right?
Like, look, hey.
Not like my dumb wife.
As much as me, I can get out there.
I don't know, it's very interesting to me.
Oh, thank you.
Well, thanks, Scenario.
