You know, they put a roof on the den. They put a roof on my whole house very recently.
Starting point is 00:00:39 Yeah, it would be really tough to do the show up there with all this equipment. It was tough when you didn't have a roof. Yes. Qualis swooped in. Yes. You need food and life. You need shelter. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:01:17 They'll give you a t-shirt. Then if you get a roof with Qualys Roofing, they will pay for a 690 sit-in on your behalf. Perhaps you were thinking about having the 690 sit-in, and you were like, well, one, I don't have the money for that, and two, I don't have a roof. Why don't we fix both those problems at once? QualisGC.com. QualisGC.com.
Starting point is 00:01:40 Thank you, Qualis Roofing. Speaking of the Mannings on Monday night, I thoroughly enjoyed listening to those two guys. I mean, Peyton and Eli are just great guys to begin with. Very knowledgeable, of course, but funny, self-deprecating. Cooper's the funniest of all of them. If you ever spent time with him, he is the funniest. All right, all right, all right, all right, all right.
Starting point is 00:02:03 All right, all right, all right, all right, all right. All right, all right, all right, all right, all right. I never listen. A little follow-up from the other day. Remember that? I do. Remember you talking about Cooper Manning? I do. Being funny.
Starting point is 00:02:15 Remember how I said he wasn't that funny when I actually did hang out with him? I'm really missing my McAfee daily viewing right now, bud. Really? Prime time for me. You are saying like the full word today rather than the short word. Which is what? Just everything, right? I think earlier rather than dimensions, you said dims.
Starting point is 00:02:40 That's right, yeah. Can you up my headphones a little bit? What are his dims? Just a little tiny bit. How about that? We're doing a sit-out, a sit-in-out today. This place is amazing. This is what I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:02:52 I don't want to go to Cassidy's dirty, tiny apartment. This is where we belong. Sorry, Cass. Cass. Cassidy. I don't know. When I go to places like this, I feel like this makes me feel worse about my own situation because this house is so nice.
Starting point is 00:03:10 Absolutely. Yeah, I like to do this most of the time and then occasionally get a shitty apartment. The fake grass is so awesome in the backyard. I think we might be taking the plunge on that front. Just backyard? Yeah, just backyard. on that front. Just backyard?
Starting point is 00:03:24 Yeah, just backyard. Would it be wrong for me to put it in my front yard? Because my front yard is just horrible. I'd like to do just full fake grass, but we live in a very nature-y area with horses and stuff. I don't think you do that. Your backyard, though, although even your backyard kind of feels like a front yard
Starting point is 00:03:45 So you just may be screwed It would be really funny to watch your wife Ride on the riding lawnmower on the fake grass Honey you don't have to do that And she's like I like it She loves that riding lawnmower Who are you? Oh hi I'm Dan McDowell
Starting point is 00:04:02 I'm Blake Jones God he's going to make us do this now. Well, get to it, buddy. The guy who was against it. And now who's... I mean, we change a lot around here. Yeah. You haven't recognized that.
Starting point is 00:04:14 A lot of things have changed. I want to talk about things I missed later. Today is show number 247. Oh, he's still doing that? We are doing that. And we're out here at this sweet pad at the behest of Ty Eagle. God, that's a kick-ass name. It is.
Starting point is 00:04:30 I was thinking that all the time. Ty's already pretty kick-ass. What is he, a cowboy? Who knows? Sniper? You know he's something cool. And you're like, oh, that would be pretty cool if his name were, you know, Ty Milton.
Starting point is 00:04:44 That's the first thing that came to mind. Ty Webb. No, Ty Eagle. Jake was trying to join his Wi-Fi and something Eagle related and he's like, what is this, Plano's mascot? And Ty goes, no, that's my last name. That was a pretty gross mischaracterization
Starting point is 00:04:59 of my tone, but... I don't know. It was dismissive. And we're also here with his brother, Wiley. This is his brother's place. His dad, Harold. His wife, I... What's her name? Caroline.
Starting point is 00:05:17 And David Stroot. So, that's who's out here. If you're wondering, hey, who's out there sitting around? We've got some Richland Rebs. Yeah, we've got some Rebels here. A friend of mine from a long time over here. Oh, who's he? I didn't introduce him.
Starting point is 00:05:35 Oh, you don't want to introduce yourself? I didn't meet him. Yeah, just go. Casey. Now, Casey Kilgore I always thought sounded like a guy from where they're from, which is Azel. Hornets. That's right. Kilgore out there. And I just want to say one thing too, to be real clear. I was kind of worried. This is our first 690 in a while. And certainly our first 690 since I've been back. And I was worried that people were going to be like, oh, you're not
Starting point is 00:06:01 allowed to have alcohol. Cause that's a thing, right? People, your family tries to do that. We've talked about it all the time in group stuff, you know, when I was away. And I think pretty much everyone determined that's worse. If people are doing that.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Yeah, they're like weird about it and they like go to the closet and like sneak it or something. So what I'm telling you right now is. Yeah, that's what you used to do, right? Yeah, right, that's my job. If you book us for a $6.90 and you don't drink
Starting point is 00:06:28 because of me, I will relapse. I will lose my family because of you. Oh, wow. And I will blame you for my downfall. Like, you'll be able to sense that? Yeah, if I can tell those people that want a cocktail but they're like, oh, we don't want to do it because he's here, then I'm going to ruin
Starting point is 00:06:43 my life and blame it on you. That's the only thing that will get me in trouble right now. All right. I was holding back yesterday because we did – Yeah, I noticed that. We did a business Wednesday, and you were talking about being in rehab, and just talking about it was giving me the shakes. I was wondering why that Lone Star light was just sitting there.
Starting point is 00:07:00 Yeah. So anyways, yeah. And I didn't have to say anything to them, though, is what I'm saying. They'd already. They're like, yeah, I don't care. There's a giant pitcher of margarita out here. I'll drink. Listen, man, I remember the days of media, the greatness of media,
Starting point is 00:07:15 and getting catering for the fam and getting the jug of Marg's. Place is top notch, brother. Oh, stream team preview. This place is top-notch, brother. Oh, stream team preview. We are doing a stream team, the Cowboy game, again this weekend. We won't usually do them two weeks in a row. I think this is our only time we're doing two in a row. So Sunday afternoon, check out our YouTube page, www.
Starting point is 00:07:43 Or wait, it starts with HTTP? Just please, colon, back backslash backslash. Just search the dumb zone on YouTube. Jake would rather have us do that. Yeah. But we did have some food on the way, but it kind of fell through. So if anybody wanted to cater,
Starting point is 00:08:03 maybe you wanted to make us a pot roast for 15 people. Yeah, I think we could probably aim higher than that. Oh, okay. Pot roast is pretty spare. Stew? I'll do a stew. Gruel? No.
Starting point is 00:08:14 No gruel. Yeah, if you have a food establishment and you want to hook people up and be associated with us. Get a little pub. A little grease the skids, then go for it. Yeah, a little scratching of the backs. Yeah. We do some scratching, you do some scratching. How about some pierogies?
Starting point is 00:08:31 Maybe some pierogies. You guys are stoked on pierogies now, or what? Blake was in Cleveland. Oh, yeah. That's right, I forgot. Yeah, and that was your first time. Have you had any, checked out the freezer section in the grocery store for pierogies?
Starting point is 00:08:47 No. They do sell them out here somewhere. See, that's another thing. I'm just going to leave them in Cleveland. It's a great drunk food for sure. Really? I didn't go out to the bar while we were there, but the last time I was there, if you're leaving the bar 1, 2 a.m.,
Starting point is 00:08:58 it's almost like tacos are in Fort Worth or Dallas, where you'll have a food truck or whatever outside of the bars, and they've got 10 different type of pierogies, and it's solid. All you need when you're drunk is dough and meat. Yeah, really. That's really pretty much, and maybe cheese. I don't care where from in the world you come up with how you want to fix that, but that's what you need.
Starting point is 00:09:17 Bread helps soak up the alcohol. I've always heard that. I don't think it's true. Well, I would only hear it when I was very wasted and somebody is slurring that to me and I'm like, yeah, give me a piece of bread. And then you eat a piece of bread or half of it and then you kind of like wake up with that in your hand later.
Starting point is 00:09:34 Yeah. You ever put a pizza in the oven and then wake up in the morning? That's the dumbest question you've ever asked me. Okay, because yes. Yeah. All right. But not in the last month. all right but not in the last month no definitely not in the last month you know i i stopped that stopped being a problem
Starting point is 00:09:49 when delivery service started happening okay but okay that's when you would just wake up in the morning and see on the front porch yeah i've seen that uh in your playbook yeah for sure uh before we get into today and twitter and all that stuff i have a couple things i want to run in your playbook. Yeah, for sure. Before we get into today and Twitter and all that stuff, I have a couple things I want to run by you here. All right. One, we lost the first... I was going to say we lost the first kid. Kid lost their first tooth last night.
Starting point is 00:10:17 Yanked that bitch out with pliers. Wow. It was ready to go, but I wasn't going to be able to get it with my hands because it's so tiny. You actually yanked it out with something? Pliers. Really?
Starting point is 00:10:29 Dang, man. You don't just kind of wait for her to work it out? It was ready, dude, but it just wasn't. It was to the point where I don't think she would have been able to eat without it being a problem. It was moving around. Okay. But I felt like it needed a grip and not a push. Instead of a push from the inside, I wanted to go up.
Starting point is 00:10:45 So do we do the thing? What are two fairies paying these days? Let me tell you something about Bidenomics. It's two doge coins. This is inflation out of control. I never felt the reason to go higher than $1, even though when I was a kid, it was $1. I believe I was in the 1 to 5 range.
Starting point is 00:11:06 I think I got a 5. A 5? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Damn. You don't want to know, dude. Well, he went to a private school. That's right.
Starting point is 00:11:13 Cake eater, silver spoon. What'd you do? You know me. Well, here's the thing, okay? .01 Bitcoin. Right. She doesn't understand money at all. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:23 So when she was going to sleep, she thinks 50 cents is a lot of money and doesn't understand that it's less than $50, really. I'm like, you know, 50 cents, that's $5. That's a lot of cents. She'd rather have two quarters than a $5 bill.
Starting point is 00:11:40 Boy, I know Brooks would because he loves putting the quarter in and turning it and getting candy. She got two fives. Two fives? Yeah. And a cookies and cream. Must be nice to be a podcast host.
Starting point is 00:11:53 Jeez. Got to marry up, brother. And a cookies and cream Hershey bar, which she was allowed to have two pieces of this morning. And a candy bar. Look, I went to rehab for a month. I got some ketchup. I know, but you're putting the bar so high, she's going to have a lot of other teeth.
Starting point is 00:12:15 I know. And then what if you forget? Or what if I don't have two fives? I went to 7-Eleven. When she was asleep, I drove up there and did cash back and bought the... I'm just saying, you're setting yourself up, man. You got to start low. Don't you understand the system of bringing home a C? I do.
Starting point is 00:12:32 And not an A on your first test? I know that one. Yeah, and the other thing is she was already hitting me last night when I put her to bed and read and laid in there. She was already hitting me with, hey, such and such says the Easter Bunny's not real. Excuse me, the tooth fairy. But it all came up. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:50 No, I think my daughter once... Am I guessing this too early? I think once my daughter lost a tooth later in the game and didn't tell us and then put it under the pillow. Yeah, I did that. Called us out. That's genius. That's a problem solver right there, solving for X.
Starting point is 00:13:04 Yeah. And I'm like, no, I mean, it is. And she's like, genius. That's a problem solver right there, solving for X. Yeah. And I'm like, no, I mean, it is. And she's like, well, it's a fairy, and fairies aren't real. I'm like, well, the tooth fairy is. She said, well, you can't see it. And I replied, there are things that you can't see that are real. She followed up, and I said, you can't see the wind, right? She was fucking mind blown, dude.
Starting point is 00:13:23 There, there you go. I was like, you can't see the wind, right? She's like, whoa. Who knew all those conversations when you were high would actually get you something? I was like, you think the wind's real, right? She's like, yeah, okay. I'm like, damn, I kind of pulled that out of my hat and it worked. Tell her about the coronavirus.
Starting point is 00:13:43 Take a look at this little thing. You can't see it. No, she's very aware of COVID. That's a weird thing to hear a kid talking COVID. Speaking of kid stuff, so when walking up to this palatial estate, I did snap a picture, and Ty is like, what are you doing?
Starting point is 00:14:03 I said, you want to talk about this off the air or on the air? So they have the sign outside of something that I was very against once this all started. And now I see we put a little, we got some sponsors on there. It looks like a children's hospital. So now I got to be like, oh, I'm into it now. You've been booed. Do you have this in your neighborhood yet? I haven't.
Starting point is 00:14:32 No, I'm going to bet no, because my regular neighborhood is a lot of old people, and my current one is, I haven't seen it. Okay, so what it is is just, you know what it is? Getting booed? There's a picture of a ghost. I think i remember you talking about it okay yeah ours back in our day not that long ago we would somebody would just tape a note to your door and it said you've been booed and they would put a bag of candy on your porch and then you're supposed to do that for another neighbor with kids by the way it's like we already got this day yeah we've already we're all geared up for it and you know what some stupid
Starting point is 00:15:12 adults are like oh no let's let's do something more let's also you have to go boo people now now you get your candy already these are uh ladies with not much better to do. I was going to say, one of the low-key, now that I'm a parent, the honest truth is the woman with no job who has kids in early, I guess it goes all the way to high school, the biggest threat to society that we have. Because I'm looking at the calendar
Starting point is 00:15:36 for our elementary school, and I'm like, that's like nine things this month. They just had spirit night. Yesterday we had roll to school where we all had to get there and ride scooters or bikes. They all had Spirit Night. Yesterday we had Roll to School, where we all had to get there and ride scooters or bikes. They all got to wear different clothes every day. Tomorrow night they got a movie, and if your kid's not there, their friends
Starting point is 00:15:52 are going to be talking about it and asking, why wasn't I there? It's like, do you guys have anything to do? Do you not want to see Pac-12 after dark on a Friday night? No, they have time today. Because I'm hitting the money line. They have time today every day. Yeah. But I was going to say, going to Cleveland and seeing his childhood home, don't you think of Dan's childhood way differently now?
Starting point is 00:16:10 Mm-hmm. When he's talking about a palatial estate that we're in. Yeah. How about that nice little corner lot he lived in growing up? It's pretty sweet. It's pretty great. His mom was not a cheap prospect. So you just, that's it?
Starting point is 00:16:23 You just, someone put candy on your porch, now you go to someone else's? that's it? You just, you just, someone put candy on your porch, now you go to someone else's? How is it now as opposed to yours? Yeah, you're supposed to like pass it on. I don't know. Is that the same thing? Are we doing? Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:16:35 Now you do a QR code. QR code, he says. And yes, it's. Wow. And again, they've got like a sponsor now and it's all. I think. How do you get sponsors? I think, Wow. And again, they've got like a sponsor now, and it's all. How do you get sponsors?
Starting point is 00:16:52 I think I wouldn't be able to pull it off because my wife would take the bait, but I would be like my dad in the Starbucks line with that. Like, hey, this ends with me. This whole buy for the guy behind me. Yeah, I can't remember the wording on it, but somehow it indicated you have to do this for someone else or three other houses or just some. It's the chain letter thing of early. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:17:11 That used to be a big email bit. They don't do that anymore. Like it had to do with bad luck or something. I don't know. I wrote down one thing that happened to me yesterday that I wanted to share with you briefly as I'm just clearing out the decks here. I went to go get my eyebrows waxed yesterday, Dan. Now, is that along with a haircut or you totally just? No, I just did the eyebrows.
Starting point is 00:17:33 It takes like five minutes. It's like 10 bucks because I couldn't get that done while I was away. While I was away, I got two haircuts. One of them, as I told you, from a guy there for four cans of Copenhagen. And the other one, it's true, two haircuts. One of them, as I told you from a guy there for four cans of Copenhagen. And the other one, it's true. I, I wrote my, or had my parents pick it up and I think they were like, are you dipping now? I'm like, don't worry about it. The other one, they send somebody in
Starting point is 00:17:55 once a month, two ladies from a local barbershop and they'll cut your hair. Um, but they, I'm not, you know, nobody's worried about their eyebrows, but for me, I will fully connect all the way down the side of my face. My hair will grow into my eyeballs almost. Jeez. And while I was there, it was midday, and there was a guy there. And I don't know how they started talking about this because I had just walked in, but there was a guy there. He was getting his hair cut by one lady, another lady next to him cleaning up her spot.
Starting point is 00:18:23 Somehow they were talking about Sam's and Costco. And, uh, this guy was probably late fifties, early sixties. Uh, and she's like, yeah, I go to Sam's club. I've tried Costco. And he's like, yeah, there's something I don't like about Costco. He's like, I just don't like it. He goes, but, you know, I guess I should probably keep wide of myself. And I'm like, well, that's pretty interesting. What's going on here? Takes about five minutes to do my eyebrows. And when I get up and walked out, they're still talking about it. But now he's no longer keeping this under wraps.
Starting point is 00:18:59 He's decided this is too explosive to keep to himself. And he's just like, yeah, I mean, when I go to Costco, let me just put it this way. It's the type of people that shop there. And I don't care what anyone thinks about that. So now he's not only, and I'm going to keep it to myself, he's like, I'm going to say it and why don't you deal with it? I'm like, who just goes into a haircut and is like, hey.
Starting point is 00:19:19 I mean, it was obviously somehow racially coded. I guess. I never thought of Costco versus Sam's as like a white or not white thing. They both seem pretty white to me. Yeah. But he's like, yeah, there's a certain type of person that shops there, and I just don't like that.
Starting point is 00:19:34 Huh. Apartment people. Yeah, perhaps, yeah. That's the people nobody wants to live near the school by the apartments. And some stuff I missed out on that happened while I was gone. Apparently Utah has a hockey team now.
Starting point is 00:19:49 Yeah. Oh, yeah. Okay, I guess you didn't pay attention last year when they were just saying they were going to move there. I was not. At the end of the... And you're just now telling me someone moved there. Yeah, at the end of the season, that's Phoenix, right?
Starting point is 00:20:03 Yeah. Sure. Yeah, I remember... I remember they were playing at the end of the season, that's Phoenix, right? Yeah. Sure. Yeah, I remember. I remember they were playing at the college. Yeah. They couldn't get a new stadium. Woj retired.
Starting point is 00:20:11 Yep. And Zach Lowe got laid off. Yep. One of the reasons I wanted to have Brian Curtis on tomorrow. Yeah, I figured now. We talked about Woj and Shams now went to ESPN. Did you see that? I did. Well, you probably saw that.
Starting point is 00:20:24 On McAfee. You're an ESPN guy now. Yeah. A lot happened while I was gone. I'm just getting caught up. I know. I mean, you miss a month and you miss a lot. That's our slogan here on the show.
Starting point is 00:20:35 If you miss a month. Yeah, I think we could probably do something. If you miss a week or two, you're fine. Pops a little better than that. Oh, okay. Yeah. Anyways, you want to do some Today in Twitter? Are you functionally prepared
Starting point is 00:20:47 for that? The Dumbo presents Today in Twitter. It's all about the cane, man. The cane? Oh! The hurricane. Yeah. That's like the second one in a couple weeks.
Starting point is 00:21:04 It wasn't... Saroy was in Florida when... The Hurricane. Yeah. That's like the second one in a couple weeks. Wasn't Saroy was in Florida when the first one was rolling through. It's pretty much my entire feed. I really enjoyed that there were some politicians that dipped their toe into the hole. Maybe the government's controlling the weather things. Let's put that in my arm. Let's go. I have a thing on this that's not Twitter related, really. Do you mind if I play this for you?
Starting point is 00:21:32 Of course not. So this is... We were watching TV. We actually fired up Hulu during dinner, as me and the wife will do. And we're going to watch a show, but then saw, like, continuing coverage. Hurricane whatever. Disney had it this morning.
Starting point is 00:21:52 Hurricane Steve. What's the hurricane's name? It's a pretty common name, right? Oh, Milton? Yeah. Disney had it. It's live coverage. Oh, really?
Starting point is 00:22:00 The Disney channel? Yeah. Okay. So, well, anyway, Hulu's got it rolling. We're like, okay, let's see what's going on. And so, one, I'm going to show you tomorrow
Starting point is 00:22:11 because it's, the sign language lady was really funny. Yeah. Like she was really getting into apparently words for hurricane and wind. They're like,
Starting point is 00:22:24 woo, you really have to be, but I'll show you it tomorrow. They're like, woo. You really have to be. I'll show you it tomorrow. We're doing a video. There are some times when I see sign language, and I think when the translator is doing it, that looks impossible. How could they learn all that? And then there's a lot of times where they do something that I'm like, that's exactly
Starting point is 00:22:39 what I would have done. Yeah. They're just like, gun. And they start doing guns. Right, right, right, right. Doesn't seem that complicated. Yeah. Shocker.
Starting point is 00:22:47 Do you think shocker is shocker? Yeah, definitely when you do towards the camera. Yeah. Anyway, so they got some guy up there. He's like with the emergency management thingy of Florida, right? So they are in charge of the, and they're having a press a press conference and then desantis is kind of standing behind him and this seemed like i tried to explain it to my wife after because you mentioned something to me that there's somehow saving people is politicized but i don't really know. And I tried to tell her,
Starting point is 00:23:25 and she's like, oh, that's amazing. I'm going to go tell my friend. I go, don't talk about it, because I don't really know what I'm saying here. But it feels like this is very political. Of course. The way this, but they're in a press conference
Starting point is 00:23:37 where supposedly people are possibly watching this for guidance and all that kind of, anyway, this surprised me. Please make sure you go to floridadisaster.org slash update. Floridians, we are with you. We will be with you. The state of Florida is leading the way on this charge. This is like the guy.
Starting point is 00:23:57 Please know that we're coming as fast as we possibly can. There's going to be places that we just cannot get to until the winds die down. But as I've already mentioned, there are strong winds. There are banding rains. But we have the men and women of Florida Task Force One out of Miami-Dade, as well as members from the Ohio and Virginia Task Force going into harm's way to help you out. We will continue to do that all night long. I will be here throughout the night along with my team. Governor, it's been a pleasure working with you to this point, but I also want to say thank you for your leadership,
Starting point is 00:24:28 and I know that you're not going to go anywhere anytime soon. And I appreciate your leadership. Thank you, sir. So we are staged. And my wife's like, why is he kissing his ass? He's not going to go anywhere. Like Ted Cruz took off? Like what's the deal?
Starting point is 00:24:47 And why – we have to make sure we tell them, look, Florida, we're taking care of this. We're doing it. It's hitting you. Governor, you're doing great. But are they trying to say – because what I said to her, what you were kind of intimating to me yesterday was like they don't want federal help or they're not accepting.
Starting point is 00:25:07 Is it like our grid type thing or something? Yeah, I think it's partly that. And Florida's, you know, might be right there, right below Texas on the we're going to do things our way, whether it was COVID or any number of things. They want to do it their way. But she thought it was real weird that this guy is kissing the ass of the governor like, hey, man, you're leadership. He probably appointed him.
Starting point is 00:25:28 Top notch. You know? Second to none. Probably a little bit of patronage at work there. All right. But, yeah, I mean, I don't know. It seems weird to me the federal government isn't in charge of this entirely, but nobody trusts the federal government with good reason.
Starting point is 00:25:43 So here we are. People are stuck on the freeway. But you know who made it as of today is Lieutenant Dan. And since I got back, I guess it's really I saw it first on Monday and just didn't really think much of it. Like, oh, it's a funny video of a guy on the Internet. I got pretty into the lore of Lieutenant Dan. Lieutenant Dan is a guy named Joseph Malenkowski.
Starting point is 00:26:07 He's 54. And as of the last few weeks at least, he lives on a boat in Tampa Harbor. And one of his legs is missing below the knee. He's very tattered up. That's why they call him that. Okay. Yeah. He is what I would call homeless fit.
Starting point is 00:26:27 You ever see a homeless guy and you're like, don't think i can get that in shape okay he looks good but he's you know kind of gaunt super tan very tatted up and he's on this boat and the first time i saw him was uh there's a guy i think his name he's a creator, Dan? Yes, content creator. Yes. Tampa Terrence is what he goes by. And all the videos that I was seeing on Twitter had been taken from TikTok, and at the end, you know, you can see somebody's handle when it makes, like, the TikTok noise,
Starting point is 00:26:57 and the graphic goes up. It all was this Terrence guy. And I never saw him on camera, but he's down there talking to Dan. Dan's on a boat tied up to the harbor, and he's obviously just a character. It's kind of like we've talked about before with local news stories. Think Sweet Brown. If you walked into many neighborhoods or many bad situations in life, parts of town, and you just talk to people around there,
Starting point is 00:27:23 they're funnier than anyone you know the neighbor of the guy who uh kidnapped girls in cleveland yeah charles ramsey yes there's always somebody around yeah you don't get that like if you go to uh like for example a plane they're just kind of waiting for a natural disaster waiting for some big story to happen near them yeah and maybe it's not even that maybe it's the lechaun. But if you go into certain parts of town and in certain situations, you're going to find people that have character that they couldn't write in Hollywood.
Starting point is 00:27:52 Lieutenant Dan appears to be one of those people. This is the first video I saw where he's explaining why he doesn't need a shelter and won't be leaving the harbor. All right, Jay, they're saying 20-foot storm surge. It could be 120. It doesn't matter. The boat floats.
Starting point is 00:28:08 That's the whole thing. Keep the water on the outside of the boat, and the boat will go up with the water and down with the water. Spot the lie. I'm already sold. I'm like, why didn't anybody else think of that? So he's not going to evacuate. He's not going to leave his boat. No.
Starting point is 00:28:21 And because? It could be 120. It doesn't matter. The boat floats. That's the whole thing. Keep the water on the outside of the boat, and the boat will go up with the water and down with the water. That's what we want to do. Can we please get you into a hotel?
Starting point is 00:28:32 No. Everybody's been asking, man. We've got to get you off this thing. Listen, the only way I'm going to go to a motel room is if a woman invites me, and she's going to stay. All right. 40. Got a little Doug Townsend in him. That's the only way I'm going. That's the only thing I'd give the boat up's going to stay. All right. 40. Got a little Doug Townsend in him. The only way I'm going.
Starting point is 00:28:46 That's the only thing I give the boat up for is a girl. A girl. The jetty for a girl. Even with the 150-mile-an-hour winds. You know what? I ain't worried about none of that. Not worried, guys. Listen, can you see this tattoo right here?
Starting point is 00:29:00 IGY6. I got your six. I got your back. Because God got mine. So if I say I got you, I got you. And if I got you, God got you. Okay. So he's pretty confident.
Starting point is 00:29:15 There's several other videos where they were checking on him. There was a video yesterday where apparently it was said to be the chief of police. I find it hard to believe he was making this call personally. But somebody with Tampa Police was out there and telling him, you've got to get off this boat or you're going to die. And he said, well, I'm not getting off the boat. And they said, well, we're going to come back tomorrow. We're going to force you to evacuate. And he said, I'll be here. And lo and behold, he was this morning.
Starting point is 00:29:40 He was there. Here he is from this morning. We got the boat here. And Lieutenant Dan here. How did it go how did i go it was a little rough till about 11 30 i repositioned the boat and i was heading into the wind and i slept like a baby from 12 30 to 5 o'clock this morning i woke up twice to pee that was it but other than that i mean it's been a great night i just smoked half a joint. I'm high. I'm watching all the people running around like crazy
Starting point is 00:30:07 because of all the water. Water went up. It was up to here last night. Water went up, like you said. Then the boat came down when the water washed out. He can't leave right now because there's no water in the harbor, but he's just chilling there. That doesn't sound like a really great
Starting point is 00:30:24 night. 1230 to 5. Well, I mean, this dude's been homeless for a year. He peed twice. I hope this guy's okay. Look, I mean, like I said, he's been homeless. So there was some other things that happened. But he got a boat somehow. He still – yeah, he did get a boat somehow.
Starting point is 00:30:40 I think he said – and he lives off of disability for like food and necessities, but he does own the boat. He's got pot. I want to be clear. It's not a big boat. Is pot legal in Florida? I don't think it is. Probably not. It feels like that would be. It is?
Starting point is 00:31:00 Recreational? Or medicinal? Okay. We're going to be so 50th, aren't we? It's just – You may know that at this stage of my life, I'm like, when can I go to the store? No, because we are a state that doesn't want it, or at least some – the leaders don't want it,
Starting point is 00:31:23 and we have a lot of money. Yeah, doing pretty well. Like Arkansas, they're going to do it. Oklahoma. They're also a state that leaders don't want it, but then they could use the pot money. So you know how this happens typically on the internet. You're familiar with the concept of milkshake duck, right?
Starting point is 00:31:40 Talked about that before. I've heard that. What is that? I think it was just some silly tweet. I don't even have it in front of me, but it was something like it's the cutest animal we've ever seen. It's the milkshake duck. A cute duck
Starting point is 00:31:52 that enjoys milkshakes. And then two spaces down, it's like, we regret to inform you that the milkshake duck is racist. So anybody who gets popular online, it's not always racist, but anybody who gets popular online, it's not always racist. Right. But anybody who gets popular online, all of a sudden, people are going to figure out if they've ever done anything that you can be canceled before you even got famous.
Starting point is 00:32:13 The guy who had ham and milk shoved down his shirt. Turns out his mom was basically a Nazi. Yeah. And LeBron rescinded his offer to come see him. This has happened a million times. So are we? Okay. So it's not. What's his offer to come see him. This has happened a million times. So are we – Okay, so it's not – What's his name again?
Starting point is 00:32:28 Lieutenant Dan. Lieutenant Dan. Let's just go with that. I think some speculation where people were like, hey, you guys all fell for this. This guy is a terrible person, and they had posted court documents. I'm not looking at him thinking he's a great guy. He's a moral compass. Okay, here's the deal though.
Starting point is 00:32:46 He did as of yesterday had raised like 25 grand in GoFundMe money. Okay. And so people found some court documents where someone of that name was arrested a bunch of times, one of which was for sexual assault of a child that was 10 years old. Ooh. Still laughing about how – Now we're getting a little... Now his boat logic seems kind of messed up.
Starting point is 00:33:07 So it turns out that's not him. Okay. Exact same name, but that's not him. However, this guy does have a bit of a troubled past. And there's a lady, which of course he does. Yeah. I don't know that a guy who lives on a boat with one leg I would have been going to for counsel and to do my taxes. So there's a lady on TikTok who's real mad about this.
Starting point is 00:33:33 She seems very bleeding heart. And what I mean by that is annoying. And so she put together a little video with some images showing like, actually, he's a bad guy. First off, this man has a GoFundMe with over $20,000 in it. He's not homeless. Well, technically, if he hasn't spent the money yet, last time I checked, $20,000 is not going to buy you a home. Probably could get you an apartment rent,
Starting point is 00:33:52 but he started raising that money when he went to the harbor. Period. He lives on a boat. Except for the short year that he spent in prison for beating an EMT with a violin. His GoFundMe. Violin? Violin. It cuts off because it's TikTok, so I couldn't get you a better edit than that.
Starting point is 00:34:07 But yeah, apparently he didn't just beat an EMT. He didn't just beat somebody with a violin. He beat an EMT with a violin. Yeah. Yeah. EMT with a violin. His GoFundMe is under a different name. Now, to be clear,
Starting point is 00:34:19 if she would have followed this up and done the research like I did, the GoFundMe is under Terrence's name. Right? So he's not lying about that. A lot of times, like we set up a GoFundMe for Gribble. It wasn't in his name. Yeah. Then the one that he's using in the daily press and the one that he was arrested in. So it's really hard to tell who exactly he is. But what I have found is that his Facebook page lists himself as a digital creator. That's right, a digital creator. He lives in Palm Beach. Knowing that there was going to be a storm,
Starting point is 00:34:51 he anchored himself to the worst place in all of Tampa. The worst place. From where he anchored, there are four marinas. The Hillsborough River, a short jaunt, like literally not even 700 feet from where he's anchored would have been a safer location to put his boat. He was offered hotels. He was offered homes. He has clearly made $20,000 in a GoFundMe. All of this for internet cloud. Meantime, there are people who are homeless in Tampa.
Starting point is 00:35:21 All right. She's going to keep talking about all the serious. It is pretty sad, yeah. But I'm going to say if he is a digital creator, hats off to him. Job well done. Yeah, I was going to say, I don't think she gets the game. Yeah, this is what you're supposed to do. I do believe he's actually putting himself in danger.
Starting point is 00:35:36 He's not faking having one leg. He's not faking that he was, I mean, I guess he could be homeless because if he is, he's nailed the homeless affect. Not faking that, yeah, I mean, I guess he could be homeless because if he is, he's nailed the homeless affect. Not faking that personality and all that. Yeah, he's not faking that he was on the boat. I mean, hell, on my timeline yesterday, I saw the streamer that's huge,
Starting point is 00:35:56 the Speed guy, I Show Speed, trying to do 1,000 backflips in 24 hours. And people, you know, millions of people are watching this and he's getting paid is that grift he's really on the boat like you said yeah he's not the uh don't some creators just go somewhere just get the photo up and then they leave like they don't really yeah do anything there or they're not doing it yeah yeah this is just jealousy yeah yeah you know what those people
Starting point is 00:36:23 it's not like he made them give the money to him instead of going down to a shelter and giving them 10 bucks. Yeah. And then he was on with a very annoying streamer, a kid named Aiden Ross, who's top five streamer in the world. That name sounds annoying. It does. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:40 He's exactly how you think. Uh-huh. There's nothing in his head, just a complete, complete idiot. And he's on kick, Blake. When we first started our show, Blake's like, kick is next, bro. Let's get in early. Go to the moon. Twitch takes too much of your percentage.
Starting point is 00:36:57 Well, these streamers who are huge, I guess, are on kick. And when Lieutenant Dan was on with Aiden Ross, one, he told him that his audience had raised $100,000 for a new boat and they got him a contract with Kik to stream whatever he wants and just talk shit to people all over the world about being Lieutenant Dan. Yeah. So I say big win. Big dubs for Dan.
Starting point is 00:37:24 Look, he took a negative, that whole hurricane thing, which is displacing millions, and he turned it into a positive for himself. Hats off to him. Yeah. He's like Bezos in the pandemic. My only other hurricane note was that we were informed a hundred times about what the mayor of Colleyville suggested. This is actually something that if you recall, during one of the hurricanes during Trump's administration, he was reported to have asked.
Starting point is 00:37:54 And it was one of those type of things that Dan and I talk about all the time where Trump would say something and everybody on the Internet and on the news would be like, that's the dumbest shit I've ever heard. Dan and I would be in the back like, yeah, that's dumb. Why wouldn't that work? In my head, I'm like, I don't know, try it. That seems genius. You can't shoot the hurricane? He apparently at one point asked the general, can we nuke it? Can we reverse the rotation by...
Starting point is 00:38:19 It's out in the ocean still, but we bombed the hurricane. We bombed the hurricane, and it just starts dying out. Yeah. Right. Has anyone tried? Exactly. When I first heard people saying that was so stupid, I was like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:34 Who would ever? You can't do that. And then you're like, eh. I don't know. It's kind of what I would have thought of. Maybe. And of course, it's not pulling up here right now. I don't know if I'm having internet issues.
Starting point is 00:38:45 But the mayor of Colleyville suggested just that. And I think he tagged it with, like, just spitballing. You know, no idea is a bad idea here. Just talking, brainstorming. We have brainstorming meetings every week. Not every idea makes it. That's right. Shout out to the Colleyville mayor giving us news every couple months.
Starting point is 00:39:05 Yeah. I hit it with a violin. There's today on Twitter. All right. Shout out to the Collierville mayor giving us news every couple months. Yeah. I hit it with a violin. There's today on Twitter. All right. Oh, look, we actually have a close. And that was today on Twitter. Do we need an open or close? Do I have to have an open to tell you that we're going to talk a little sports?
Starting point is 00:39:22 Oh, yeah, I like that. I don't think we should. But I do tell you that today's Cowboy Talk brought to you by OwnWell. OwnWell is the place that will help you reduce your property tax. Right now is the time when you're getting your property taxes in the mail.

Starting point is 00:40:47 for Dallas, 300 bucks. There you go. There you go. Onworld.com. Just quick hitting, I guess, the Cowboys
Starting point is 00:40:57 because we do have the watching party but most people will be watching as the Detroit Lions are here. And maybe we'll do this more tomorrow, but I was kind of going through my notes
Starting point is 00:41:13 from last year's Lions game. I kind of forgot how crazy that was. It was at the end of the year. Playoff seedings were pretty much set, so it didn't really matter. Do you remember the controversy in that game? Oh, yeah. Remind me.
Starting point is 00:41:26 At the end where the Lions could go for two or kick the extra point. Was it kicking an extra point to tie it? Yes. Or going for two to win it? The Lions decided to go for two to win it, and they did not get it. And they did not get it after, wasn't it like a penalty or something, and moved them back? Yeah, their linemen didn't report eligible.
Starting point is 00:41:51 Oh, yes. Okay, so they did get it at first. But then there's a video of him talking to the ref, and there was a bunch of confusion. That was right around New Year's Eve, right? Because I was with, yeah. Pretty late in the year. December 30th, yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:02 I remember watching that group. We were with a huge group of people trying to figure out what the rule was. Yeah, then they got backed up to the seven-yard line. They still went for it, yeah. They're a crazy story, man. I remember – let me see if I can figure out what year it was. That's the Cowboys' last win at home, I think, because they had 16 straight wins at home.
Starting point is 00:42:25 And then they lost to Green Bay in the playoffs, and then they're 0-2 this year? Yep. They're 0-1. 0-2? 0-2. If you go back to the three and – so they went 3-13, 3-13-1, in Dan Campbell's first year. And I remember reading something on the ringer then, after maybe the draft and free agency after Campbell's first year. And I remember reading something on the ringer then,
Starting point is 00:42:46 after maybe the draft and free agency after Campbell's first year. I think they write this for every team, and we only remember the ones where it works out. But I think it was Kevin Clark maybe went through and was like, this team has a ton of talent and a ton of picks. This is going to work. They already had Goff, regardless of what you thought about him at the time.
Starting point is 00:43:07 But at the time, it's the Lions. And also, I'm not real sure I was sold on Dan Campbell as a head coach. It's good sound bites and whatnot. And then their first draft, they drafted a running back high, and then they drafted a linebacker high. And you're just thinking, Dan Campbell's going to try to run this like a 1988 football team. But it worked.
Starting point is 00:43:28 Some years though they did focus on that offensive line. They got their edge rusher. Great as it gets. Aiden Hutchinson is maybe better than Micah. Slow down a little bit. I don't know about that. Do you think they'd trade him for Micah? Slow down a little bit. I don't know about that.
Starting point is 00:43:45 Would you – okay, do you think they'd trade him for Micah? Probably not because he's a Michigan guy and all that. Yeah, maybe that. His mom's real hot. Mom's hot, hot family. Real hot family. All of them are hot. He's hot.
Starting point is 00:44:00 Yeah. And – I mean, he's a beast for sure. I just – this little run we're on with Micah here this year, I think we're forgetting that he's been Hall of Fame level the last two seasons. Yeah. Dan Campbell, 4-19-1 in his first 24 games.
Starting point is 00:44:18 But do you remember? He'd be like, we're close, man. And they were. Yeah. They were. They would lose games by one possession over and over and over. He's now finally made it back to.500. He's now 27-27-1.
Starting point is 00:44:36 Wow. Yeah, so what is it, like 24-8 or 25-8 or something? 23-8. Okay, yeah. Since starting 4-19-1. Yeah. Only the Chiefs have a better record. Sorry, Stephen Jones.
Starting point is 00:44:50 Over that. Yeah, and I mean, they've made playoff runs. Or at least one, you know? Made it to the conference finals. Conference title, and they were winning at halftime. Yeah, and I don't know. Goff seems like he can play for a while to me. So let's go Dan Campbell's greatest hits.
Starting point is 00:45:10 I have some audio for you. And let's also say today's audio of Dan Campbell's greatest hits. Oh, no. We'll do brought to you by. We'll do that for your NBA thing. Okay. Dan Campbell's greatest hits Hits, sponsor free, sponsored by Ty Eagle out here. Thanks, Ty.
Starting point is 00:45:31 And if you remember, I'm just going to pull out some stuff. Well, Greatest Hits. This is Dan Campbell when he was first hired. Like, the national media loves Dan Campbell. So this team's going to be built on, we're going to kick you in the teeth. All right. And when you punch us back, we're going to smile at you.
Starting point is 00:45:49 And when you knock us down, we're going to get up and on the way up, we're going to bite a kneecap off. All right. And we're going to stand up and then it's going to take two more shots to knock us down. All right. And on the way up,
Starting point is 00:46:00 we're going to take your other kneecap and we're going to get up and then it's going to take three shots to get us down. And when we do, we're going to take another h kneecap, and we're going to get up, and then it's going to take three shots to get us down. And when we do, we're going to take another hunk out of you. Before long, we're going to be the last one standing. All right? That's going to be the mentality. I'll tell you what. When he's delivering that, too,
Starting point is 00:46:15 because of what he looks like, he's really imposing. He's huge. He's cut. He's, you know. It's not just that. It's that plus he always seems like he's right on the verge of cry-talking. Because he's so intense. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:46:32 Yes. When you get so mad and so fired up about something, you just cry. So during that run where he, just the terrible start for a couple of years, they were very close in games. And speaking of cry-talking, this is a particularly tough game they had it was very close but they lost at the end to the Vikings it's tough it's tough um
Starting point is 00:46:53 look you want it for yourself as an organization and for for all of us but you want it for those players I mean they're out there busting their ass and you know, it's tough when you see your players give all that they have and you lose that way. It's tough. You don't want that for them.
Starting point is 00:47:20 Can you picture McCarthy doing this? I cannot. But we'll be better for it, you know. And there again, credit Minnesota, but, you know, we made the one mistake that cost us, you know. And so ultimately, you know, we didn't do enough to win. But I was proud of them, and I love the fight they have in them. And I love the grit.
Starting point is 00:47:47 I do. And when your defense plays that way, you've got a chance to win every game. We remember – look, I'm happy for him because I don't know that I could have handled him really being bad for a prolonged period of time. I think it would make me sad. Well, I'm glad that they were able to recognize, hey, this team is actually close. They are getting better despite the record. You know, because like Robert Sala gets run off,
Starting point is 00:48:15 and he's two and three. Did you see that they've taken play calling duties from Hackett? No. See, that's what's funny about Robert Sala getting fired because he – it was the offense that was – like Robert Sala is the defensive guy. Yeah. He was the defensive coordinator for San Francisco, right?
Starting point is 00:48:34 Uh-huh. So now he gets hired and their defense has been great. Mm-hmm. So everybody kind of had the thought that maybe they found out – maybe Aaron Rodgers found out they were going to fire Hackett. They didn't want his buddy fired, so he went to the owner and was like, you got to get rid of Salah. So they did, but now –
Starting point is 00:48:50 Who's calling plays? I'd never heard of the guy. Okay, because they elevated the DC. Yeah. I don't know what Hackett's job – it's a very what would you say you do here. It's awesome. Brian Schottenheimer-y?
Starting point is 00:49:02 Very much. All right, here's – this was another viral thing because he's really intense. He's always fired up, and he's always got a coffee. Loves coffee. So, yeah, the media had to ask, what's his daily order? Well, normally what I do is I'll get two venti. I go to Starbucks, I get two venti of the pipe with two shots in them so black eye that's what i come in with that's how i start the day so like it doesn't seem like he needs that
Starting point is 00:49:33 i don't know that ralph strangest on cocaine he's yeah campbell is a pretty intense guy without that's true and then he'll throw a dip in yeah he does have the dip in too he'll throw in a dip that uh i don't know that much about Starbucks. He's not a big coffee drinker, but that is over 1,000 milligrams of caffeine, which is— Well, you were surprised, right? When we started playing that, she's like, whoa, too venti. 10 Red Bulls or five five-hour energies every morning. Like, you guys think I'm really into five-hour, and I'm at about three-quarters the day. He's, he said that's his morning. Yeah. That's what he starts with
Starting point is 00:50:08 every day. And that's, I mean, that's hot black coffee. He's not letting that sit all day. He is drinking all of that before noon too. Yeah. Yeah. Shots of espresso in there to each. Yeah. Let me jump around because I'll end with something that's not necessarily the end, but it's the coolest audio. This, though, is after that Cowboy game, the controversial ending. It didn't really matter. Like I said, playoff seating was pretty much set. But, you know, he wanted to go for the win.
Starting point is 00:50:40 So do you remember Detroit Sports Radio? They were up in arms about that because they didn't win the game, and they could have won the win. So do you remember Detroit Sports Radio? They were up in arms about that because they didn't win the game and they could have won the game. And they had Dan Campbell on the show the next day. So after that play, you had said, you told the offense, you're going for two on the final drive if you score.
Starting point is 00:50:59 But from the seven, I mean, and looking back, like was there a point of no return where you laid on your sword and kicked the extra point? Do you regret at all the decision to go for it from the seven? I mean, looking back, was there a point of no return where you laid down your sword and kicked the extra point? Do you regret at all the decision to go for it from the seven? Yeah, I told our offense, I think I said this before, and we're going for the win. And we're going to go down, we're going to score, and we're going for two. And I wasn't coming off of that. So if it was like 10 or 15, like a holding
Starting point is 00:51:25 penalty, you still would have gone for it? No. If we're getting outside the 10, no. We walk outside the 10 every week good on good. We do it every week. O versus D. When you got the penalty Go ahead and say it. Say it.
Starting point is 00:51:42 Both of you. What? Say it. Say what you want of you. What? Say it. Say what you want to say. I think from the seven, it's a low percentage play. I think your chances of winning are lower than if you kick the extra play. I would say it like you would say it to anybody else. I'm on the radio. Say it like you want to say it. I thought it was a reckless decision.
Starting point is 00:51:58 Thank you. Okay, but you don't regret it? No. That was a great no. I love that regret it. No. That was a great no. I love that man. No. Yeah. I love him.
Starting point is 00:52:10 He's a good dude. We had him on the show. I mean, we've had him on our show, but did a weekly show with him for a couple years. I remember one Why Today Doesn't Suck. When he was not coaching, you called him, and he just hung out. Yeah. He was just watching his kids. I think he got mad at one of his kids because they
Starting point is 00:52:28 threw an egg at the wall. He was just like an everyday dad hanging out. Now he's on Applebee's commercials. Those are great commercials, by the way. I really like the Applebee's series. Yeah, the play menu. Of all the people that my brother
Starting point is 00:52:44 worked with in New Orleans, I think Dan Campbell might be the only one that he regularly... It's not like he texts Sean Payton. Yeah, maybe DA, but Dan Campbell remembered him and they talk. When we had him on, we asked him about him. Drew Brees didn't.
Starting point is 00:53:00 I was really hoping Dan Campbell would. As you know from knowing him, I think he's the real deal. He's as advertised. And then this was from Hard Knocks. And it's just great stuff. All right.
Starting point is 00:53:21 What are we? What makes us what we are? It's like the opening scene of the season. I think it's that right there. It's grit. It's what we started with last year, guys. All you guys that were in here. It's our core foundation, man.
Starting point is 00:53:35 Grit. And what does it mean? Really, in a nutshell, I think it means this. We'll go a little bit longer. We'll push a little harder. And we'll think a little deeper and a little sharper. Like, to me, it means we'll play anywhere. We'll play on grass,
Starting point is 00:53:50 we'll play on turf, we'll go to a f***ing landfill. Doesn't matter. Doesn't matter if you have one ass cheek and three toes. I will beat your ass. It means that normally I'm 100%, 85%, man. That's all I need to beat you. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:54:06 I will produce and win at 85%. You guys already know, you're not gonna be 100% until next March. This is the best you're gonna feel right now. It's the best you're gonna feel. The quicker you accept that man, the better off we're all gonna be. Alright now, there's a number of teams
Starting point is 00:54:23 as it equates to, just bear with me, the ocean, right? There's a number of teams. Okay. They just barely get to the water. You got to get in the water to compete. A number of teams, that's all they get to. Then there's a number of teams, they are in the shallows. And they come in a hurry, man, and they are all over your ass.
Starting point is 00:54:43 They're all over your ass, and they strike and move. They strike and move, and they're dangerous, man. You just got to get a hold of them, though. If you can just get a hold of them, and you start dragging their ass out to the deep, dark abyss, you can drown them. And that's what we got to be. Yeah, anyway.
Starting point is 00:55:05 You want the whole thing? I just love when that beat hits I do love that music It is pretty great You think anybody's ever Had that played Like by strings At their wedding?
Starting point is 00:55:15 Certainly right I would hope so You might have to get remarried That's a great idea Yeah I will do that For my next wedding My younger wife
Starting point is 00:55:24 Who will be really Into hard knocks. What a niche. Yeah. Belichick can find it. Why can't you? That's right. You're basically Belichick.
Starting point is 00:55:34 You are to me. Hey, thanks, man. All right, let's interstitial this and move to our next topic. But anyway, Sunday, Dan Campbell. Love it. Don't feel great about the Cowboys right now. Have you already looked at the line? I think it's like three. Yeah, I got Detroit minus three on the road.
Starting point is 00:55:57 Which I would think would be higher, but yeah, if you count Cowboys at home. Are we going to get Brady again? Probably. Look at the 360 sports or whatever it is. 506, yeah. 506. Deron Bland, I think, is going to be back.
Starting point is 00:56:12 He's been practicing all week. Trayvon Diggs is practicing. So I think your secondary will look much better, but the pass rush, the pass rush. Micah has not practiced this week, and we kind of thought maybe he'll just miss one week. Maybe they're going to say we got the bye coming up, so why push this and lose Micah for longer?
Starting point is 00:56:35 Yeah, I guess I was just that night hoping that the second week, this one would be good because they played that New York game on Thursday. That's a long time to miss, man. Oh, yeah. Well, Demarcus Lawrence is now on the IR, so you missed him for a few games. Marshawn Neeland is out right now, and he's actually turned into kind of a pretty good player this year. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:58 I can't believe they won that last game, other than the fact that the Steelers are not very good. But I'm not expecting good things Sunday. Still, you got Brandon Cooks on the IR, too. Might be a good thing. He's so washed. Well. Turpin's better at this point.
Starting point is 00:57:13 Well, that says a lot then. Yeah, of course. Because I don't think Turpin's that great. No. They need Devontae. It'd be great if they did something like that, but yeah. We should touch base on, oh, Lone Star Beer. Let's say our next topic will be brought to us by Lone Star Beer and Lone Star Light.
Starting point is 00:57:35 And you already know they're the National Beer of Texas. Texas, excuse me. They're celebrating 140 years of brewing in Texas. And I just don't want you to forget Lone Star Light Lone Star Beer guy But I'm a light guy But we're the yin and yang
Starting point is 00:57:51 I'll drink the red, you'll drink the blue And together we're a happy duo Because we're drinking Lone Star Beer It's perfect with BBQ And I'm going to add this in It's perfect with watching football We shall be doing that this Sunday. We got a fridge full of Lone Star beer.
Starting point is 00:58:09 And you should too. So check out Lone Star beer. And right now on their website, like one of their copy points, it's weird. They say they have awesome merch. They do. But they're going to prove it. On their website the Dumb Zone 21 is set up. Go to
Starting point is 00:58:23 LoneStarBeer.com. Use the the Dumb Zone 21 is set up. Go to lonestarbeer.com. Use the code DUMBZONE21. Get 21% off merch. Must be 21 or over to purchase. Thank you, Lone Star Beer. My turn? Sure. I just wanted you guys to be aware of,
Starting point is 00:58:41 well, one, we're a week away from Mavs opening night. I cannot believe it. I can't believe I saw hockey on the other night. Well, neither could I. And then I'm like, Utah? I was fully blown away. It's a week from now. You know, I'm going back through all my podcasts and everything, trying to get caught up, all
Starting point is 00:59:01 the media day stuff that you guys played, all the season previews from the wind horses of the world. I'm like, God, how did this happen? See, I feel like I'm not ready for sure. No. But once I saw the Media Day stuff, once I am – like I'm pretty fired up because I forgot how much I enjoyed that run last year. Yeah. That was great.
Starting point is 00:59:26 And they seem to have gotten better. This isn't like the Cowboys at the end of the year. You're like, oh, my gosh. They let this guy go, this guy go. Their rivals got better. The Mavs got better. I think Lively's going to be an all-star. And that might be a big part of them getting better,
Starting point is 00:59:42 but it's not the only thing. No. Yeah. I'm pretty interested to see if they still stay stuck to the idea that he has to come off the bench. He did Monday night. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:53 He played more minutes than Gafford, I think. At least when training camp started, Kidd said Lively is penciled in right now as the starter, but it's going to be a battle. And so I thought that was kind of a... Keep it out in front of him. Just give Gafford the, hey, look, you did a lot for us, but, you know, come on, you're not going to... Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:14 You're not going to be the starter, but we're going to do the lip service and pretend like this is a fight. Yeah, that makes sense. I think he's going to be awesome. Still super, super young. Seems to be like a guy you don't have to worry about what he's got going on. You know, they did just play the Grizzlies, so there are guys that you're like,
Starting point is 01:00:33 this guy's going to save our franchise, and they have a gun on Instagram every other month. I don't know. Maybe not. I forgot they drafted Zach Eadie. They did. That's dangerous, man. I forgot they drafted Zach Eadie. They did.
Starting point is 01:00:44 That's dangerous, man. Like, if they can actually figure out a pick and roll with him, the giant from Purdue. What was his nickname? I don't know, but I feel like it was racist. No, it's because he went in with that girl at that party. Oh, yeah. But I forgot.
Starting point is 01:01:03 Because he looks vaguely Asian to me. Can I say that? Is it something Yao Ming? I don't know. This feels like you got a better handle on it. I'm going to leave it to you. You think these jokes are so funny. It was funny.
Starting point is 01:01:18 Well, then produce it. I'm trying to remember what it was. I'm trying to remember, too. Go on with your little basketball segment okay I got Big Maple, Yukon Yao, Maple Ming that wasn't it Shaq Eady but it might have been Yao Ming related
Starting point is 01:01:37 yeah alright anyways there's a new show on Netflix called Starting Five. And it's kind of like the QB or the wide receiver. I don't know if you ever watched fully either one of those. I watched the wide receiver one when we were in California. It's okay.
Starting point is 01:01:58 It's not like groundbreaking, but it's cool. This one is for the NBA, and it's for last season. And it is Jimmy Buckets, Ant, Demonta Sabonis, Jason Tatum, and the King. So it's, you know,
Starting point is 01:02:15 following them throughout their daily life, at home with the family. Of course, LeBron's a part of it. LeBron is a part of it. And I don't think it's getting made without, go ahead. Thalming. Ah, ahead. Thalming. Thalming.
Starting point is 01:02:26 Ah, yes. Thalming. That was worth the wait. I'm not going to lie to you. That was pretty good. That's right. That's pretty good. Of course LeBron is a part of it.
Starting point is 01:02:37 I don't know that he gets off the ground for season one without it. And also, of course, LeBron's a part of it because the executive producers are Michelle and Barack Hussein Obama. Yeah. So, for whatever that's worth, I think it just means you give money and then get money. Seems to be kind of how that works, unless you're the producer of this show. Sorry, Blake. Yeah, it's okay.
Starting point is 01:03:00 But yeah, they're at home with them. They're showing them on Halloween, LeBrons. I don't know if you knew this, Dan. Actually, I should say I know you knew this since you're such a big LeBron guy. Oh, give me back up here real quick, Blake. Sorry. People know I take Halloween very seriously.
Starting point is 01:03:22 Everyone. Do they? What does that mean? I mean, I guess I remember seeing some costumes, but just every NBA player and team seems to have crazy costumes. Right. People know I take Halloween very seriously. It's my favorite holiday, by the way.
Starting point is 01:03:36 By far. By far? This house is all decked out for Halloween. Beetlejuice. It's one of my favorite movies. I graduated Harvard Med School. I'd like somebody to quiz him about Beetlejuice.
Starting point is 01:03:52 Well, I'll tell you this. He's doing this from memory. The Beetlejuice thing he's about to do. Just because he's talked about Godfather being great. We're going to get to that. They're putting on full cinema quality plaster and makeup on him for his Beetlejuice costume.
Starting point is 01:04:10 Okay. I think this is one where I'm going to have to believe the king. He seems really stoked on horror movies and scary movies. So I think they have the track running underneath it of, what's his name, Michael Batman? Keaton. Michael Keaton. And LeBron's just doing the voice. Beetlejuice.
Starting point is 01:04:31 It's one of my favorite movies. I graduated Harvard Med School. I went to the Black Plague and had a pretty good time. I had a 167 times energy gain. Every single time I see it. Not to mention the fact that you're talking to a dead guy. Now, what do you think?
Starting point is 01:04:48 I think we're going to have fun. Could you imagine me having to show up to the game on Sunday and playing a game like this? No, that's beyond the realm. Oh, yeah. Beat it with the juice. James. See, that's where these guys think they're funny.
Starting point is 01:05:06 He's not funny, is he? No. Not at all. He never has been. The more famous you are, the less likely it is that you could actually ever be funny. Yeah. Because everyone just laughs hysterically at everything you say. Yeah, I've played basketball.
Starting point is 01:05:18 Can you imagine if I just, oh, no, we can't. Oh, my gosh, that's great. Use that. Use that on the show. Not good. Let's see. Is that. Use that on the show. Not good. Let's see. Is this the right one? My whole family.
Starting point is 01:05:29 Okay. So, yeah, this is where he addresses lightly the rumors of his lying. Okay. He lied about how he gave. He is aware of what's going on online. Extremely. How he seemed to always be reading The Godfather, but nobody ever saw him past the first page.
Starting point is 01:05:47 He's on a treadmill. He's like, hmm, page one. He would say that Godfather series were his favorite movies, couldn't name a scene when asked about it. Right. Love them all. He told the world that he created the concept of a deluxe or double album because you could go listen to rappers' albums,
Starting point is 01:06:05 and they're like, hey, I can only pick 13 of these, and I got 25 joints I like. And he's like, crazy idea. Put them all out, call it a deluxe album. Didn't he do that with like – And all of a sudden, you know, so Migos – Some rapper died. Oh, okay. Migos in particular – oh, it was when, it might have been when Offset died.
Starting point is 01:06:25 I think it was when they were takeoff. I liked. Who died? I don't know. Whoever he listens to his. He liked them before anyone did. Offset. Yeah, he said he would play it in the locker room for the Heat in a certain year.
Starting point is 01:06:41 And at the time, if you go back and look at it, while Migos was a group, they were so far underground with like four months of material that there's no chance LeBron knew who they were at the time. At the time that he set it in. It's very like Tim Wall saying he was at Tiananmen Square. Remind me. For our Wednesday series, this one you have to write down.
Starting point is 01:07:01 Watching the vice presidential debate with Eddie. It was great. Here's LeBron on horror movies and lying and etc. I'm telling you, I come from a horror movie family who played way too... Look, my mama said, look, here's my mama.
Starting point is 01:07:19 She's the one who started being a whore. My whole family. And they play too. They play around. Like don't like, you get scared the shit out of you if you're not on your P's and Q's for sure in my household growing up. It just happened.
Starting point is 01:07:33 It just happened. Just from watching scary movies. It was my mom, it was myself, my two uncles. And my mom could attest to this because you know right now everybody like
Starting point is 01:07:41 think I lie about everything when I tell the truth about everything, but it's so good people think I'm lying. Okay. That's why we think he's lying. It's so good. Because it's just too good. It just couldn't be true.
Starting point is 01:07:54 Right. Like how does that apply to the Godfather thing? You can't name a scene. No, no. But that's why because he actually does think every scene is the best. Right, because he's seen it so many times. You travel to a place. Let's say you travel to a country 30 times.
Starting point is 01:08:13 Someone's like, which one was your favorite? Can't name one. See, again, everybody sitting around him is like nodding. Yes. Yeah, Brown. You're right. Keep that check coming. So I want you guys to at least give this a shot.
Starting point is 01:08:24 I think there's like seven or eight episodes, but they're only, it might say like 45, but the credits are seven minutes long somehow. Okay. Is it cool or is it, because some of these are just too, as you know, the fact that I'm sure LeBron has editorial control. Yeah. You know, you're not really getting behind the scenes stuff. You're getting staged behind, like, oh, okay, how about this episode?
Starting point is 01:08:47 I'll wear my costume. Yeah, Bron, that's a good idea. Do that bit about how, what if you were playing in it? Yeah, it's certainly possible. I don't know. But Anthony Edwards is very interesting. Let me see. Yeah, you're going to have a kick.
Starting point is 01:08:59 All right, so hold on. I didn't edit this. We're going to try something. Okay, so part of the deal in the beginning, they start with game one, Nuggets, Lakers, and they're telling LeBron that he's going to have a minutes restriction. Does not go over well at all. He's pissed off about it.
Starting point is 01:09:17 They do show that, you know. I mean, he's basically saying, like, this is bullshit. Well, as I recall, that lasted till about halftime he was well it definitely didn't last among the top five in minutes played like at least halfway through it didn't last very far into the season maybe a week which he also addresses at the end of this one like yeah they cut that out real quick all right so this one um and i actually kind of love it because the mavs are able to beat the timberves, but it's LeBron talking about why he doesn't come off the floor and then they introduce in the
Starting point is 01:09:48 final scene of episode one Anthony Edwards, you know, because everybody's already anointed him as the next Jordan or LeBron. If there was somebody on the floor that I felt was in better condition or was better fit for the moment
Starting point is 01:10:04 than me, then I could possibly sit down for a little longer i have not seen that yet so now we go to uh ant's house as he's backing his lamborghini out of his mansion looks all super badass it It's like Minnesota snow. I do not look up to anybody in the league right now. Currently, not at all. Yeah, not the slightest. Yeah, I want to cook LeBron one-on-one. Like, who don't?
Starting point is 01:10:40 If you say you don't, you ain't know you don't want to compete. So anyways, it just kind of fades with him just kind of smiling that Anthony Edwards smile. He's just such a shithead, and I love it. You know, Demondis Sabonis is there because I think they had to get a white guy. Yeah. And Luka's never going to do this. So what's it called? Starting five.
Starting point is 01:11:01 Yeah, there's six or seven episodes or maybe 35, 40 minutes. But you don't get this sort of stuff with the NBA that often. The NFL is really good about it between sounds of the sideline and hard knocks, but at the NBA you mostly get, you know, what adjustments do we need after the first quarter? Better defense. It's got LeBron, so I'm in. Yeah, I figured.
Starting point is 01:11:21 It's an easy sell. Yeah. All right, want a break? Sure, I'm hungry. Yeah, I figured. It's an easy sell. Yeah. All right, want a break? Sure, I'm hungry. The Dungeon.
Starting point is 01:11:28 Coming this fall only to the BBC, the brand new cooking show, Is This Meat? Is it a baseball bat or a sausage roll? Is it a tractor or a roasted duck? Is it an adult film actress or a glazed ham? There's only one way to find out. Tune in to the BBC for the brand new cooking show that's capturing the hearts of millions. Is this meat? Four star chefs compete in challenges to fool the celebrity panel by creating concoctions of meat that look like things we see every day. Tune in this fall and watch the premiere of Is This Meat? And answer the question, is this meat? you're listening to the dumb zone yeah
Starting point is 01:12:32 hey check out dumbzone.com why blake's been working hard on it because blake is a control freak. And despite the fact that he has too much on his plate, he is like, well, I'm doing a lot on dumbzone.com. And so he actually, like I thought I was doing a good job. I made the little promo code page. And I'm like, look, I'm a coder. I know how to do website things.
Starting point is 01:13:05 Yeah. And then he went in and fixed it. He made it look way better. He put logos up on everything. Just check it out. It's kind of new. It's got to look right. New-ish. I don't think it was up and flying when you were talking about things that so much changed in a
Starting point is 01:13:22 month. It's true. Are we different like your kid? No, you guys are just as big of assholes before I left. So you guys, over the last month or two, I guess our trip to training camp in Cleveland, we're super stoked on steps once we added in Rob. That has not changed. That's only elevated. So what's the goal you're looking for every day?
Starting point is 01:13:48 Most people look for 10K. Okay. I was in the five range, six. But last week I did average 10. Okay. What about you, Blake? I want a little something for them. I'm not getting any applause for that.
Starting point is 01:14:03 How much of that is with no shoes on? Not much at all. Is that where the grounding thing came from? Yes. How did you guys get on that? Kyrie? No. A buddy of mine, you know Daniel and Lana,
Starting point is 01:14:18 they were out at the Pro Slat event. Okay. And I had lunch with them afterwards, and Daniel was saying he's in the grounding now. That's the first time you've ever heard of like... Oh, yeah. And then so that night... You know when people on the internet are like,
Starting point is 01:14:31 go touch grass? That's what that's about? Go outside. It's like scientifically proven that having your feet actually on the grass, especially in sun, is good for your entire nervous system. It's good for your brain.
Starting point is 01:14:45 My ally. My friend. It's been so long. I want to nervous system. It's good for your brain. My ally, my friend. It's been so long. I want to hug you. It's a real thing. Well, I know, but these guys are all laughing at me. And so I'm like, I don't know, man. Daniel was on it. At first, I was laughing at Daniel in my head.
Starting point is 01:14:58 And I went online and searched shoes without rubber soles. That's all I did. Okay. Thinking, okay, maybe he's got something. By the way. That's all I did. Okay. Thinking, okay, maybe he's got something. By the way, that's not a that's all I did. That's already pretty weird. What, searching that? Yeah, I mean, that's like just being like, oh, that's all I did.
Starting point is 01:15:14 Well, I'm saying I just thought, okay, well, maybe Daniel's got something. Let me just search that. And when I search that, it's like grounding shoes, grounding. Like, it's a huge thing. People are totally into it. Apparently, if you just rip the rubber sole off your shoe, I can charge you $50 more for the shoe. Like it's insane.
Starting point is 01:15:31 Okay. It's kind of like trying to eat healthy. But then we discovered when Kyrie did come here from New York, he was like, oh yeah, this is a great place to ground. There's actually grass and stuff. So I mean, we did find out that yeah, Kyrie's really into it. To the surprise of no one. Which checked out.
Starting point is 01:15:46 Now Dan wants his moccasin basketball shoe. Oh, yeah. All about it, bro. I thought about you when I saw that shoe debuted. But, yeah, I mean, do you think human beings were actually made, like from an evolutionary standpoint, to be wearing these on our feet and to be walking on concrete and to be inside? Is that a rhetorical question or you want me to answer that?
Starting point is 01:16:07 It's not natural. Okay, so Whoop has introduced steps. It's still in beta. Oh, your fitness watch thingy. I always was like, step? That's lame. Whoop, I actually get my strain score and everything else I need. But now that Whoop has steps, I'm like, steps are a great idea.
Starting point is 01:16:23 Right. Steps are like for olds. What do you do? Not much. Well, I don't know what is much. How are you doing today? No, I don't get steps anymore. What did you do when we were in Cleveland and you and Rob were battling about it?
Starting point is 01:16:36 Yeah, you were like, I got 18,000 yesterday. Yeah, I would do that. Okay, I had 18,500 yesterday. What do you mean I don't? Whoa. Yeah. That's a part of the reason why I didn't want to tell him. He's just going to be like, I got more. No, I mean, I just wanted to know.
Starting point is 01:16:48 I mean, I didn't know if my number was bad or medium or I had no idea. What are you doing? Because I'm like consciously, I walked to your street and back yesterday. It helps that I run, which apparently does count, but I also go on two family walks
Starting point is 01:17:04 a day usually. One with the dog and the boy, one with everyone. And your street is 20 minutes away from me. which apparently does count. But I also go on two family walks a day usually. Yeah, well. One with the dog and the boy, one with everyone. And your street is 20 minutes away from me, or walking, at least my plotting pace. I also pace around the house a lot. Like when you're on the phone with me and I'm at home, I walk around. Unless I need to be at the computer.
Starting point is 01:17:20 That's been my bit, trying to do phone calls on my walk. Yeah. Okay, I didn't know. 18.5 doesn't seem like much to me, but you're saying it's a lot. I don't get a lot of steps updating the website and doing DZTV and doing stuff and work for the show, but it's cool that you can exercise and stuff. Oh, wow. I deserve that.
Starting point is 01:17:37 I'd like to do – One thing on changing. They did change the name of – I also don't play video games. You think I do anymore? I never have. They changed it. You guys are both last word guys.
Starting point is 01:17:49 On DZTV, it is now called DZTV. So if you set your recording for Dumb Zone on your YouTube TV or whatnot, it changed. And I have heard from people that they're not populating anymore, so you may need to update it if you are a DZTV viewer. Why don't we yell at Fox 4 or KDFI? Why don't we go in Fox 4 or KDFI?
Starting point is 01:18:08 Why don't we go in there and demand changes? Yeah, let's... I thought you'd be happy. They're running with the DZTV. Look, we're trending now. We want changes. Trending means like four people were watching the other day. Oh, here's the episode from yesterday. Who's this hunk?
Starting point is 01:18:24 Oh, it's me. Am I on TV? Look at that. Viewer mail today is going to be brought to us by Frankel & Frankel Personal Injury Attorneys, chosen by the people feared by the insurance companies. They're a great sponsor. They signed on first, I believe. When you give them a call at a very easy number, 214 or 817, then all threes,
Starting point is 01:18:44 When you give them a call at a very easy number, 214 or 817, then all threes, 3-3-3-3-3-3-3, you will talk to a partner. Not to just some spare. Like when you call us, you talk to Blake, and you're like, oh, darn it. I wanted to talk to Dan. Yeah. You'll talk to Mark or Scott Frankel or Gene Burkett.
Starting point is 01:19:00 That's right. He's got a really strong shoe game, unlike me, apparently. You could dump it to him in the post, too. He's a big fella. Very tall guy. He's a big really strong shoe game, unlike me, apparently. You could dump it to him in the post, too. He's a big fella. Very tall guy. He's a big fella. Yeah. Don't you want a tall guy fighting for your rights in court? I honestly do.
Starting point is 01:19:12 Yeah. I mean, I was a little worried when we went. Want some stumpy guy? The diminutive nature of our legal team. Yeah. But yes, if you do get an accident, you might think immediately like, oh, what do I do? What do I do? Call them before you call an insurance company.
Starting point is 01:19:25 Don't talk to their insurance company. You know what they're there to do? Screw you. Yeah, take advantage of you. But they're going to work for you, Frankel and Frankel. Over 100 years of combined experience, they know how to craft a case to drive maximum outcomes for you at 214-817-214 or 817.
Starting point is 01:19:43 And then all threes. Thank you, Frankel. And Frankel. There you go. Am I not up? Here we go. Hey, everybody. It's time to answer some of today's viewer mail.
Starting point is 01:20:01 Why would I not be up? Because there's a little thing coming from your computer. I got a little buzz? No, it's like the plug-in or something is coming undone, so there's like a squelch from time to time. You don't care. Why did I say anything? I know. I was wondering why you kept talking. But I'm sure the masses loved it.
Starting point is 01:20:27 I doubt it. I'll start with a few birthdays and then we can go on to non-birthdays. Want to do that? Sure. Dear Uncle Taint Tamer, it's my brother Adam's Andy Pettit plus Rowdy birthday on October 10th. Please read this on a free
Starting point is 01:20:42 episode because he is a poor. His dream is a clutch call to Frankel and Frankel. Oh, a clutch call to Frankel and Frankel after getting sideswiped by an 18-wheeler while enjoying a Lone Star beer. Thank you for what Jake does to his body. F the incels on Reddit that complain. See, I don't even know that exists. More Blake, more Facebook
Starting point is 01:21:11 group moderator Danny, Julie Saroy. Same amount of Sarah Heppola. Day two, number 10-16, because of the stupid cutoff from Marcus. Dear Minge Binger, my Eiffel Tower partner Hunter Hines
Starting point is 01:21:31 is celebrating his Deshaun Watson assaults plus OJ Simpson murderer's birthday. Murders. Anyway. There's a lot going on there. He turned me on to the ticket in eighth grade when I was suspended for telling the lunch lady I was having wet dreams about her. My mom took my TV away, so I started listening to the ticket.
Starting point is 01:21:51 The rest is history. Isn't that a compliment? That's quite an origin story. His leaders are TC, Air Bud Dwyer, and Psycho Dave. More Joe Kemp. This is from Brian Keith. P.S. Start a weekly mailbag. Call it the dumb bag.
Starting point is 01:22:08 Don't we call it viewer mail? Maybe branding and creativity, not his strong suit. Yeah. Wet Dreams, his strong suit. The Lunch Lady, huh? That's an interesting target. Well, I don't know that you can control it. You know, it's a dream.
Starting point is 01:22:31 It just kind of happens. You're like, oh, no. But it was recurring. Tio Taint Tickler. God. I'd like to wish a happy Mike Hegman birthday to my dad, Quinton Artho. We are both day one DFs, 233 and 263. A few years back, he got me a cameo from Mike Soroy on my birthday,
Starting point is 01:22:55 and it was great. Pretty low standards. Maybe a potential revenue stream for the DZ. Soroy doing cameos? Maybe he just means us. I don't know if he's talking about us, but eh, I'm alright. Yeah, you weren't into that.
Starting point is 01:23:12 I wanted to do like Troy Aikman, but even more. Because I think Troy jumped on there, but he was charging like 500 bucks for one. I think it was more. That's what I want to do. I don't want to do this, and to illustrate that I don't want to do it, I'll charge you $1,000.
Starting point is 01:23:27 Mm-hmm. And then if you want one, okay. I guess I'd do it for $1,000. Yeah. I guess I'll somehow take one minute out of my incredibly busy day. No, if you're budding. I'll do it while walking. If you're a bud from Married with Children and you need the dough.
Starting point is 01:23:43 You can get $50. Yeah. Which, you got me a Bud from Married with Children, and you need the dough. You can get 50 bucks. Yeah. Which, you got me a bud from Married with Children cameo. It's just, cameo was a hot thing for a while. How are we doing on cameo? Is people still doing it, though? Probably. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:24:02 Anyway, who is this? Mike, his dad is Quinton uh leaders are dan's mushroom sandwich jake's soaking wet picnic table and blake's reading a certain kevin smith tweet more soroy just the right amount of blake thanks and legalize it his son max people are still doing that, huh? And Dear Uncle Pink Taco Pounder, it is my buddy Ray's birthday. His leaders are Dan Salmonfarts, Blake's huge bank account since joining the team,
Starting point is 01:24:33 and Blake reading Dwight Howard DMs from BH. And I have two follow-ups from some stuff we have recently talked about. Although I don't want to step on any of yours if these are yours. No, they could be the same. It's all good. I have 1950 LA Rams follow-up. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:24:59 Do you have that one? Yeah. You want to go? Yeah. Well, I mean, we got an email from a guy who basically said that the rams of that era were way way ahead of their time like from the 40s on that they were actually trying to win with the pass and according to this emailer he says that you know that's part of the reason that rules were tightened to move the game back to real football.
Starting point is 01:25:27 Ground and pound. I can see that. I mean, that was the AFL's idea, right? Open it up. Yeah. Yeah. And people were poo-pooing that, poo-pooing that, as Blake would say. In 1950, the Rams scored 39 a game.
Starting point is 01:25:42 Damn. Which is still the record. And he points out, because we were talking about Norm Van Brocklin stats. He has the record for a single game passing record. Right. Still. And we were like, oh, well, if you take that out of his total, a lot of the other games he was like 100, 150.
Starting point is 01:26:01 It turns out a lot of that time he was splitting time. So there was another quarterback that also, like for example, in this 51, Van Brocklin had 1,700. The other guy had 1,500. So total, they put up 3,200 yards in 12 games. Which is a lot more impressive.
Starting point is 01:26:18 You're averaging 300 a game, basically. Man. Yeah. That. Yeah. That's awesome. The league didn't like it, and they held back progress for decades. And my last one, I don't know if it would be, or if you have this. I'll do another quick one.
Starting point is 01:26:38 This is from T-Cal. We were talking about the AT&T vibrator commercial for the iPhone. Yes. I got a handful of responses on that. He said, concerning the social climate surrounding sexual health devices, vibrators at all, bigger now than ever before. And I think he means more popular, not that women are giving. Right.
Starting point is 01:26:59 I need more. You can find female and male sex toys known as strokers at Target. Target? No way. Yeah, and you know what? Now that he sent me this email, I've never seen it in person, but I have seen people take pictures of it before. Not behind glass or anything, near the condoms or the women's items.
Starting point is 01:27:18 He says, expect many more cheeky references to dildos in your cell phone and insurance commercials in the next months and years to come as it were wow yeah okay what's up target shout out it is pretty weird i saw somebody some uh leftist feminist lady complaining about this today she probably had a point but it is weird now that it's's totally normal for someone to just have an OnlyFans who's a normal person. We've just completely gone to the point of whatever. Teachers are getting fired for it, aren't they? I think if you work for a state agency,
Starting point is 01:27:56 you might still have a problem on your hands. Maybe not everybody wants people to know about it, but Vibrator commercials being produced by AT&T and not all of them are having sex not all getting naked but just some normal grad school student who's like you know i don't really want to strip but i'll post racy photos for a nice 2000 a month just a little kiss and nobody really judges you for it anymore yeah i want to get back to the day of shaming women no no i was i was going
Starting point is 01:28:23 to say we need to get that information that nobody's judging you to some of my wife's friends. Well, they'll die soon. No, I'm just saying. He would like to see. Maybe one of our, a couple of our neighbors. Oh, I thought, okay. I just want them to know that people aren't judging you if you went to OnlyFans.
Starting point is 01:28:41 No, no, no. You know? Look, when I thought I was going to have a six-month non-compete where I couldn't make any money at all, if a judge saw things a different way, I had to at least consider the conversation. Not for me. Why not for you, man?
Starting point is 01:28:57 Get to work, honey. I'd be into it. And then my final one, it's a follow-up on Carnival Worker Talk. Yeah. So I think we were talking about carnival worker and sex and would it be great with a carnival worker. Just because they've been through a lot.
Starting point is 01:29:15 Hey, guys, just want to let you know my cousin has been a carnival worker off and on. Between prison stints. Is there a consistent carnival worker? Yeah. No, I've been with the company for 32 years. I'm just waiting for my 401k, my stock options to fully vest before I... I wonder if they have non-competes. I wouldn't be surprised.
Starting point is 01:29:38 Anyway, he's been a carnival worker off and on between prison stints. Yep. Also checks out. Of course. Since he was a teenager, he has four or five children, and I think they are all from different women. He is currently in prison. His name is Bo.
Starting point is 01:29:51 So all the stereotypes are true. Yeah. Then he says, proud of you, Jake. It'd be really funny if there was a non-compete for carnival workers. You go over to a different circuit, and you're like, her beard, it's not real. Here's how they do it. Like you're giving away all the tricks. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:30:12 Alright, let's do some dumb zone news and that's going to be brought to you by Lucy. I know you're on board with the Lucy. Big fan. That is the tobacco-free, 100% pure nicotine. That's another change since I've made.
Starting point is 01:30:30 At least I'm trying to – I'm morphing into the world of Lucy because, you know, I don't like the tobacco, the brownness, and just, you know, how that is. Also, it's bothering my mouth a little bit. Yeah. But the Lucys are great, man. And they're not like the other nicotine pouch company that is owned by Big Tobacco. Yeah, we know what they're about.
Starting point is 01:30:52 They're like us, though. They're the mom and pop shop of pouches.

Here's Jay with the Gumzone News. so all right we got a wild one today uh we do have we covered the hurricane so while that is news and this is news we're not covering that right here um a couple local stories here for you first one comes to us from keller isd leave one of the gentlemen here today. You have kids at what school? Okay, so starting 11 days from now on October 21st,
Starting point is 01:32:31 KISD said it will begin serving an alternative meal to students who have unpaid meal charges. Indian. There you go. It's fun, isn't it? Yeah. That one's five miles from your house, so since it's you, I will give you go. It's fun, isn't it? Yeah. That one's five miles from your house. So since it's you, I will give you credit.
Starting point is 01:32:48 All right, yeah. I don't know things. If you have a balance higher than $25, you're getting the gruel. You know what? I'm definitely pro free lunch. Every kid should just get lunch, man. Why not? It's insane.
Starting point is 01:33:02 The amount of money that we pay in taxes. every kid should just get lunch man why not the amount of money that we pay in taxes and i you know i have a whole thing about how education is handled almost exclusively locally and then at the state i don't know i get it but i just uh i've never been a big fan of the idea that well it was schools have to you know one school doesn't have running water uh in my daughter's school she's learning to code it's like they're both public schools. Right. But I don't want to kick that hornet's nest. But as far as food goes, man, I don't know. Because it is a social stigma.
Starting point is 01:33:33 Oh, yeah. You know you're poor. And then it's also like a stigma if you've got dumb parents like my kid, and I didn't fill up her thing, and then she couldn't get lunch one day, and there was no wiggle room on that. on that well nope your thing ran out you don't get lunch yeah and so it's like okay well you know she's yeah whatever it's it's a bad bit just just give all the kids food whatever it's crappy cheap food anyway right it's a terrible did they say what they're going to get?
Starting point is 01:34:09 So for breakfast students, you'll get a peanut butter jelly sandwich, and for lunch, turkey and cheese sandwich, which, you know, it's not steak fingers. But you have to eat this. All the kids will know. They will know you're eating that. You're the poor kid. You're a poorie. I mean, they know anyway for other reasons. Sure, but it doesn't help to just have another reinforcer of like, listen.
Starting point is 01:34:31 Yours is the house you can go smoke with your mom. Hey, I see that turkey cheese. Oh, yeah. Like the one kid that, man, if you go over to his house, you could smoke pot. His mom sits there doing it. Yeah. Man, if you go over to his house, you could smoke pot. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:34:45 His mom sits there doing it. Yeah, so it says here more than 30 million students are unable to afford lunch in the U.S. Oh, not in Keller. No. 68.8, which I suppose you could round up, percent of surveyed schools across the country have students with unpaid meal debt you know what was i don't know if i was unique in this regard i feel like if i think back i was but for most of my education time at least up until high school i brought my lunch yeah which could also label you as a poor i don't i mean i guess it did but i brought my lunch to baseball games i was was like, ah.
Starting point is 01:35:26 Yeah. The other kids are getting a hot dog. But I don't know. I liked having a nice turkey and cheese sandwich and the chips that I wanted at home. And maybe a little note for mama, you know? I don't know. Like, even at my daughter's school now, she's in kindergarten. And I think about half the kids, they eat whatever the school has.
Starting point is 01:35:44 And it's a lot more than they used to have. They used to basically have one option. Whatever lunch was that day. I think they got a little menu. Did you ever used to go eat with your kid at lunch? Was that an option for you? Yes. Early days I did that a couple times. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:02 I may start going occasionally on Wednesdays. Yeah. It's a good bit. It's when they're this age, you know, they enjoy that. But even that kind of feels weird because... When she was a junior in high school, it wasn't as cool. Right, and you weren't even sitting with her. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:22 I think that also... Well, I guess in my uppity situation, it probably isn't a worry. But I would think there's got to be some kids looking at that like, oh, damn, I wish my parents could bring me Chick-fil-A. That's a good point, yeah. Anyways. Too bad for them. Yeah, I should have had better parents.
Starting point is 01:36:41 That's right. I'm sure everyone has seen this video by now. I think it first showed up on TMZ. But the home purchased in 2019 by Dak Prescott up in Prosper, 8,800 square feet. When you said the home, I thought you were talking about, I saw this video of a home that had straps on it to protect it against a hurricane. Did you see that? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:37:05 I got to check back and see if that worked or not. Right. I want to find that. Sorry, Dak, home implosion. Yes. 8,800 square feet torn down Tuesday. 8,800 square feet. He's like, eh.
Starting point is 01:37:22 I guess there is a price for everything like I've always thought I would never like a Rolex is like 50 grand or something like I would I don't know it doesn't matter if I made 50 million a year
Starting point is 01:37:33 I'm not spending 50 grand on a watch but maybe if you made 50 million a year maybe you just would and maybe your 8800 square foot house for you wife kid and dog
Starting point is 01:37:43 isn't big enough maybe it's also just not nice enough 8,800-square-foot house for you, wife, kid, and dog isn't big enough. Maybe it's also just not nice enough. Like maybe he wants, it says Dak, it was valued at $3 million when he bought it. Or maybe it's valued at $3 million now. He bought it back in 2019, put it in the tennis court in 2023, the Dak yard, of course, in 2020. Yes, the artificial turf football field in the back.
Starting point is 01:38:08 I think if I had that kind of bread, I would be way more into having as many houses in as many places as possible than I would an 8,800-square-foot house. Like, I legitimately think if I made 10 to 50, I would live in a house like this here, the one we're at now. Awesome. But I would have, have like 10 of these. Would you have one in Arlington? So after the game, you just go to that one?
Starting point is 01:38:31 You know, I don't think so. I don't think so, and here's why. Because I bet if you play, think about whenever we get done with the show, especially with maybe whenever we were on the radio and it was hectic, you're in an office, it's a lot more. I would drive home in silence, and I liked that 30 minutes. You know? So for me, I think if I play quarterback
Starting point is 01:38:51 for the Cowboys, I have a driver and I gotta go home to my family. Do you think he has a driver? Based on watching that NBA Netflix show, I think a lot of them do. Like LeBron ain't driving to the game. Because Luka drives.
Starting point is 01:39:08 And I'm sure LeBron does sometimes. But they're in the back of, like, maybe one of their cars. I don't know. But if I'm Dak, I want that 40-minute drive back home after Arlington to just clear my head. I think a lot of them go out on Sunday nights, too. Like, we did that Elite Rides DFW to work on Monday. And home.
Starting point is 01:39:29 It was glorious. It was so great. Yeah, it'd be pretty sweet. I mean, so I don't think you want to be right home 15 minutes after you get done having to shut down an Ed Werger question. You need a little space, you know. But there is good that will come of this. This was not your typical home teardown, says WFAA.
Starting point is 01:39:51 Would anybody like to include or guess, add a few words that will be included in the next sentence of this news story? The gallery guesses Dude Perfect. TMZ reports that the Dude Perfect guys, the North Texas-based trick shot creators, were involved in the bulldozing. And that Prescott even posed with some of the machinery. So look for that video. Isn't that like his neighbor?
Starting point is 01:40:15 Yes. Is Tyler somebody? Yeah. Tyler's the main guy. Don't. That's not a coffee sniff. What? A cocky sniff.
Starting point is 01:40:24 I know Tyler's the main guy Alright bro I'm a due perfect fan What if his wife I celebrate their entire catalog Wife, girlfriend, baby mama or whatever Just wanted to get rid of the house Because he had other women there
Starting point is 01:40:37 I think that happens Don't rule that out Maybe the lawsuit with the stripper at XTC XTC? XTC? whatever she's like you know what i need you to recommit to me i think baker did that did what just running around a whole lot and then i think he like cheesecake factory parking lot he uh he He renewed his vows or something. Boy, you're pretty young to renew your vows. I know.
Starting point is 01:41:11 Do you see that in your future? No, but I did think that it was pretty dope when you hear people who do it. It just seems like a vacation. Nobody does it at a local wedding venue. Yeah, you go somewhere and do it. Yeah. But for you to now, because I've heard you say in the past, you've scoffed at it. Now you say it's pretty dope to do it. If you could get a free vacation with your friends, but I think in general it does seem.
Starting point is 01:41:32 Yeah, it's a step. He's just trying to set us up to me like, okay. That's a bad Game of Thrones. Cool. Do we have to go to this? That presumes you'd be invited, which I said nothing about. Is it going to be dry? Well, I'd assume we'd go do the show.
Starting point is 01:41:47 No, I told you, no dry. That can't happen. And these people out here, they're listening. I know. I've never seen people drink this much on a Thursday. All right, this is a sad story. Kristen, I love you. I want the whole world to hear it.
Starting point is 01:42:07 This is a sad story. Did you guys... You told me yesterday... I guess he's got to do whatever she says. Yep. She's bringing in that coin. You guys told me yesterday... What?
Starting point is 01:42:18 That you had not talked about the viral incident regarding a high school assistant coach at Denton Ryan. Do you guys all know about this? Did you see this, folks? Did you hear about this? You guys didn't talk about this at the time? I don't even know about it. They're nodding.
Starting point is 01:42:30 I don't know. Okay, so back, I think it was like October 4th, there's a video that went viral on TikTok and I think on Instagram. And there are these people, I know one of them on Twitter in particular. There's a guy who he's got half a million or a million followers. And his bit is like if somebody has a public meltdown where they're being real racist or doing something crazy. Like the first one I ever saw, there was a drunk guy who was beating a woman who worked at a hotel. And she was filming it.
Starting point is 01:43:01 Black lady, white guy. And people send him these videos and then he posts it breaks it down and he's like i bet someone knows who this guy is and from there they do and he updates the video with their name where they work all that like these internet justice sleuths is that doxing kind of but you're crowdsourcing it yeah you're not actually doing it. You're just like, hey, go find this guy. Because the cops haven't, you know, they get no police report. And it's usually someone doing something pretty awful. I guess the danger is if you misidentify that person.
Starting point is 01:43:35 Quite a danger. Is that what happened here? Yes and no. So this coach, his name, Aaron De La Torre. He was a longtime football coach at Denton Ryan. I think he was their defensive coordinator. He'd been – Now, wait.
Starting point is 01:43:52 This coach is not the guy that does this – No. Okay. No. He was the head coach at Irving for five years, and he was caught – They have more than one school. No, but the main one. Tyson Thompson.
Starting point is 01:44:07 Black and gold. This guy probably remembers Tyson Thompson. Oh. I can see it. I remember the first time I played there, they were burning a huge eye. It's all right. This isn't for you. I'm already disappointed.
Starting point is 01:44:19 He doesn't know. Bulldogs? Sorry. We got to find it now. Blake pretends he likes. Tiger. Damn it. I had the colors right. Blake pretends he likes. Tiger. Damn it. I had the colors right.
Starting point is 01:44:25 Blake thinks he likes high school sports. So this coach is caught on video that goes viral. And the video starts, I guess, with a lady approaching him saying, hey, you can't be hitting that kid. And he's beating up a 12-year-old apparently. And he doesn't deny it. He says, the kid hit my wife. Both of them did.
Starting point is 01:44:45 There's two kids involved here. And they're like in a Walmart parking lot. And he's like, yeah, the kid hit my wife. Both of them did. There's two kids involved here. They're like in a Walmart parking lot. And he's like, yeah, this kid hit my wife. So he's, I guess by his own admission, beating up the kid. And this lady's screaming at him like, it doesn't matter. That's assault. It's not your kid. You can't just beat up a sixth or seventh grader because they did something you don't like.
Starting point is 01:45:04 So that video goes viral, right? And then what happens is one of these guys, like the one I mentioned to you on Twitter, who does the sleuthing and the justice, one of these guys on TikTok who's got half a million followers, he picked it up and did like a full breakdown of it. His name is Dinesh. I'll play you just a little bit of that video. It starts with the original video. You're a grown man. You should not have had your hands on a child. He's a minor. He's a minor. He's not your child. That is assault. Denton, Texas. This woman filming was driving into a parking lot when she noticed this very large man with a minor in a headlock
Starting point is 01:45:45 that he was repeatedly punching and choking. So she got out of the car and demanded he stopped. Now, the abuser kept saying, you don't understand. He hit my wife. He's trying to say that what I'm doing is okay. This is totally normal. But they didn't hit his wife. They bumped into her on accident and apologize, but they didn't hit the wife. I mean, that's the kid's side of the story. If maybe he stayed around for the police, then we would get his side of the story,
Starting point is 01:46:13 but he didn't. So this is the only story we get. That's what you get when you leave the scene of a crime. Even if they did hit your wife on purpose, you can't do that. Yeah. Okay. There's a lot more there but
Starting point is 01:46:26 as the guy updated the videos he got his he found the guy's name the coach and he put it out there so the coach is the one beating up
Starting point is 01:46:36 this kid yeah and so I guess I've read a bunch of different reports on this
Starting point is 01:46:43 and I got people DMing me about it giving me different sides to the story. But apparently what happened is this happened, the doxing process. And the district decided not to pursue disciplinary charges because the police said that the parents were not going to press charges. And if the parents aren't pressing charges and it's not a criminal matter, there was a quote in one of the stories that said that the parents were like, we don't think what he did was right, but we don't think it's worth pressing charges. Meaning their kid did hit his wife. Yeah, possibly. It leans that way. And then the district said, all said all right well then he's not we're closing this matter
Starting point is 01:47:25 so last or tuesday night i want to say they had a board meeting and this guy online had been saying hey you know they say they're not going to take action against this guy but there's a board meeting tuesday night if you're in the area, show up. And apparently that happened. And it got real out of hand. A bunch of people, I don't know the guy at all, but had hit me up saying like, hey, I've worked with this guy before. They said he's a good dude. Father of three, one of them plays football at SFA. Well, the board didn't fire him, but I guess the meeting got so out of hand. He was found dead the next morning. Oh my gosh. Yesterday. And
Starting point is 01:48:10 not confirmed but it sounds like it might have been a little a little bit of a suey. Wow. Yeah. Bad bit. Yeah. Yeah. So, yeah, it's a wild, wild story.
Starting point is 01:48:36 I don't know what, I mean, I know that the heat sucks when it's on you like that. So it is doxing. People are digging up whatever's in your life, But if it's worth you killing yourself over, it has to be that they found some stuff that you're real worried about. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. That makes sense.
Starting point is 01:48:55 That's wild speculation, of course. Of course, I know. And I don't even know for sure, but they're not listing a cause of death. And some of the news stories, WFAA did, but some of these news stories don't even mention the viral video. Despite the fact that it's been confirmed.
Starting point is 01:49:10 Clearly there is a relationship with... I don't think six days later. That video. Five days later. People calling for his head with pitchforks and torches. It's weird, man. I mean, obviously there's things that the regular news media is not going to report on that you're kind of like man i wish somebody would uh would take care of that you
Starting point is 01:49:30 know and that's where these social media people come in and a lot of times you it's for the good and somebody who got ripped off or somebody who got assaulted and there's no justice well someone had a camera phone and now they can figure it out in a way that the cops couldn't problem is there's also no gatekeeper and you can make mistakes. Did they put this guy's home address out there and stuff too? I think so. See, yeah, that's pretty bad. And they deleted the videos initially.
Starting point is 01:49:54 The people who were like, hey, we're going to put this guy to justice, when they found out that he was dead, deleted the videos. I think they might be back up there a day later, but they were definitely down for a while. I think they might be back up there a day later, but they were definitely down for a while. So I'd have to say Hurricane Guy, Lieutenant Dan, good bit. Good social media bit. Doxing people, bad bit.
Starting point is 01:50:15 Probably shouldn't do that for anybody. And that's anybody? Yeah, now you're getting the, I mean, what if you could find Hitler's address or something, right? You know what's bad is that I've read enough. Here's the time portal where you can go back to kill Hitler. I've read and listened to enough stuff about Hitler in the last couple of months that now when you were like nobody or I said anybody, I didn't even think of Hitler. I'm like, well, I mean, he had, there was value there. I'm like, child molester.
Starting point is 01:50:44 Yeah, child molester. But even that, I mean, do you want it to go through the courts? I don't know. I don't have an opinion on anything anymore. Just whatever. If I can do whatever, I don't care. I do have this opinion, though, and I'll stand by it. I think I issued it some five, six, seven, maybe ten years ago that horse racing's days are numbered.
Starting point is 01:51:07 You're now back on it. Casey's going to freak out. No, you were against it. This guy likes his bets. Wait, because you're saying you're standing by it, but you had kind of backed off of that. Yeah, I mean, I started to give up hope a little bit as far as the timetable. But Singapore, where horse racing is very popular, Their last horse race ever was Saturday. Really?
Starting point is 01:51:31 Yeah. That's the place where you get caned and you won't see a piece of graffiti, right? Wasn't that where the caning was back in the 90s? The late 90s? Yeah, what was that kid's name? Ethan Couch? No. What was that?
Starting point is 01:51:52 Was that your caning sound effect? I thought it was me. Yeah, Michael Fay. Michael Fay. Yeah. The Yankees announcer. No, that's Michael K. Oh.
Starting point is 01:52:03 Yep. I thought that was Omar from The Wire. I don't think that's Michael K. Oh. Yep. I thought that was Omar from The Wire. That's Michael K. Williams. Keep going. I think we're rolling, bro. Damn it. I think he basically just hit for the cycle. That was impressive.
Starting point is 01:52:20 Yeah, but I don't think Singapore is like a horrible place, though. Is he? I don't think Singapore is like a horrible place, though. See? I don't know. But they're done with horse racing. They said this is too uncivilized. Yet America, they're like, let's put on a funny hat. Let's all get dressed up. Drink some juleps.
Starting point is 01:52:40 I guess from what I've understood, it is a horrible place. But I think I based it all on that caning thing. That's a solid negative copy point. Yeah. I just feel like it's... I've heard... I think I had a neighbor in college whose family was from Singapore. And obviously I learned a ton about it.
Starting point is 01:53:00 Moving on to nothing, because that's the news. I can see how it would be ended, though. I mean, it was just something to gamble on. Yeah, of course. Just boredom. Like and subscribe. So you know how you just said Michael K? I do.
Starting point is 01:53:18 I was trying to get that right before you played the thing. I got a Costas update for you. A Bob Costas update? Because he's the one calling the Yankees on television right now. We played the thing the other day where he just had absolutely – he was crestfallen at the idea of Bobby Witt Jr. and the Royals turning a double play. And Giancarlo Stanton being out.
Starting point is 01:53:37 Somebody gave me the context of that and said that he was actually bummed out because he was sad for Giancarlo because he's not supposed to be running. Like, he's really not cleared to run. He just mashes. Okay. And that he had been explaining that. I don't think that's a good excuse. No.
Starting point is 01:53:53 But last night he was going both ways with his – this is not even homerism. This is just a guy who kind of sucks at his job now. This is, you know, a big, big game between the Yankees and Royals last night, and this is after the first run is scored, in this case by New York. Almost imperceptible. Stanton hits one well in the gap at left center field, and that's going to get down.
Starting point is 01:54:15 Soto heading for third and being waved home. The peg to the plate is late. It's an RBI double for Stanton who pumps his fist as he arrives at second base, and the Yanks jump in front, 1-0. Can I get a little more out of you? How about this? One of the best catches I've ever seen in my life. Line drive, base hit to center field.
Starting point is 01:54:38 It was smothered out there. I don't know if it was caught. It was caught. Oh, my gosh. What a play. The analyst has to be like, yeah, it was caught. You got some excitement there. Incorrect excitement.
Starting point is 01:54:52 Ryan, drive the center field to left field. He caught it. He doesn't look that old, and I think because of modern medicine and money and plastic surgery, but this is what happens to the old announcer. They start calling Harry Carey.
Starting point is 01:55:11 He's doing the home run call, but it's shallow center field. You might have all passed him by. That's fine, but I need someone who has the job of deciding who does these jobs to be like, Bob, why don't you get a glass of milk and a blanket and take the next couple plays off. Bob Costas, 72. Okay, that's what I was about to search. So this may be an update to our game. I used to do older than Berman, and I did that when I found out that despite, I would
Starting point is 01:55:37 assume, decades of alcoholism, Tim Kalashaw is the same age as Chris Berman, which blew my mind because I'd seen Chris Berman, which blew my mind. Because I'd seen Chris Berman try to walk. Right. And I'm like, this guy can't. Bob Cost is three years older than Chris Berman. Wow. Wow.
Starting point is 01:55:55 Hey, thanks. That was exactly the reaction I was looking for. Okay. For a minute before we do Today in History, I'll tell you it's brought to you by Early Bird CBD. This is the new bed. I love it. It's chilling you out.

What do you guys think of that? That's awesome, man. Will you be awake at 10-10 on 10-10? I don't know how early you're going to bed these days.
Starting point is 01:57:52 There's almost no chance. Okay. Early bed guy? Oh, you know what? I think I found out this morning with my call map today, Dan, mental health awareness day. I'm like, okay, what does that mean? I hate days.
Starting point is 01:58:05 They directed that just at you. I mean, I'm paying for a meditation app, so I think that probably had something to do with it. Yeah. Mine said it was Salmon Day. I think it's like Amazon will focus an ad just for you. Sure. So every day you're like, oh, it's cool.
Starting point is 01:58:25 I'm so special. On this day in 1936, Ohio State trumpet player John Brungardt dotted the I in script Ohio for the first time during halftime of the Buckeyes. What kind of a score do you think we had for a final score? Buckeyes versus Pittsburgh in 1936. 6-0. Wow! They lost 6-0 to Pittsburgh in Columbus.
Starting point is 01:58:54 Back to Pittsburgh. After that game, the honor would go exclusively to sousaphone players. I got no clue what that is. That's like a tuba. But how is it different? I don't know. Well, you came in hot with the info, and all of a sudden... But I had a daughter who plays the sousaphone in marching band, but she played the tuba.
Starting point is 01:59:13 So I don't understand what it is. It's a tuba. The name of this link is tuba versus sousaphone. Everything you need to know. Well, there you go. I don't think I've ever. Hello, Internet. All right.
Starting point is 01:59:30 And there's been a few exceptions. It's always going to be a Sousaphone player unless it is a celebrity. Let's see if Blake knows these celebrities. Okay. Like John Glenn. Orbited the Earth. Jack Nicklaus golf.
Starting point is 01:59:51 Bob Hope golf. Wow. He was into golf, but he was a comedian. This is back when they put the word... You probably would watch him enough. ...that suffix in there.
Starting point is 02:00:08 Like, it sounds like comedy when you're a comedian, but you didn't have to actually be funny. You're just a guy. Yeah, you're just a guy. Yeah. On this day in 1976, a man from Greece who was 98 years old became the oldest to compete in a marathon.
Starting point is 02:00:23 He finished... Last. Probably last. Seven hours and 33 minutes. What's a regular marathon time? I don't know. Around four? What they're saying.
Starting point is 02:00:37 Okay. I don't know that. I did it in a month. Almost. This is the day in 1976 that Cleveland Browns defensive end Joe Turkey Jones. You should go look this video up. Terry Bradshaw? I have seen it.
Starting point is 02:00:54 Sacked Terry Bradshaw and did kind of a wrestling move. Bounced his head off the turf. Like, look that up right now, Blake. You will not believe it if you can't understand it. Turkey Jones, Terry Bradshaw. It says Turkey Jones' greatest sack. Well, it's got to be this one. Although he did get penalized.
Starting point is 02:01:16 But it knocked Bradshaw out of the game. And on this day in 2011, the first ever Oh man, he suplexed him. Yeah, it's pretty violent. This is why he can't do highlights now. on this day in 2011. The first ever... Oh, man. He suplexed him. Yeah. It's pretty violent.
Starting point is 02:01:28 This is why he can't do highlights now. Okay. He's lying there twitching, right? Wow. Got a hot daughter, though. That was real football.
Starting point is 02:01:40 This is the first official game-ending Grand Slam in postseason history on this day in 2011. Who did it? Aaron Boone. Nelson Cruz. Nelson Cruz.
Starting point is 02:01:50 Damn. As the Rangers beat the Targers 7-3 in 11 innings. I went to a game during that series, and I think they scored like 18 runs or something. It's the most fun. I highly recommend if you're going to go to a baseball game, make it like a series-clenching ALCS game where your team scores 18 runs. Is that fun? It's pretty sweet. Better than like game 74?
Starting point is 02:02:17 Yeah. So I say the first official game in Grand Slam because Robin Ventura actually hit a walk game in Grand Slam because Robin Ventura actually hit a walk-off Grand Slam in a Mets victory against Atlanta in the 1999 NLCS but was sworn by teammates between first and second.
Starting point is 02:02:36 So he never made it around the bases. They were only trailing by one. Interesting. And so the Mets ended up winning. Baseball's so ridiculous. Yeah, that didn't count. You have to circle the bases. You didn't touch home. So stupid.
Starting point is 02:02:53 Today's birthday is Brett Favre, 55. Oh, that's something you missed. Welfare grifter, what? Got Parkinson's? Yeah, so he announced it at like a Senate or whatever. He was in some kind of a hearing about grifting from welfare. But during it, he told everybody that he has Parkinson's, that he's been hiding it. And then so now the story the next day is not.
Starting point is 02:03:22 That's amazing. The story, it was really a baller move. Yeah, I love that. Because now we all feel sympathy for the great Brett Favre. That's fantastic, yeah. And all the hits he took to get him there. And, I mean, whatever. Those welfare, they were just probably going to waste that money anyway on booze, right?
Starting point is 02:03:39 Sure. Sure. Hunter Goodwin is 52. Who? He's a former Aggie and Viqueen punter. Maverick Carter is 44. Is he on your show? What do you think?
Starting point is 02:03:55 Probably produces it. I'm sure he's involved there somehow. He's not the one that's with Adele, right? Is that Leon? No. One of LeBron's that's with Adele, right? Is that Leon? No. One of LeBron's people is with Adele. Geno Smith, 34.
Starting point is 02:04:14 Josh? Rich Paul. Okay. Josh Giddey, 22. P. Giddey. That's good. With the Bulls now. That kind of all faded away. Gotiddy. That's good. With the Bulls now. That kind of all faded away.
Starting point is 02:04:29 Got him traded. Yeah, probably. He also wasn't playing all that well, but yeah. Our war games today is between 38-year-old Andrew McCutcheon and 40-year-old Troy Tulewitzki. Boy, Tulewitzki burned bright, but he really fizzled out with the Yankees. And McCutcheon played forever. Still playing. McCutcheon.
Starting point is 02:04:52 It is McCutcheon, 49.3 to 44.5. Pretty close, though. Dale Earnhardt Jr., 50. David Lee Roth, 30. Excuse me, 70. A little off. I remember whenever they tried to get him to replace Howard's show for half the country. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 02:05:11 That was awesome. Who was the other half? Was it Carolla? It was Carolla. That's right. Yeah. Tanya Tucker, 66. Julia Sweeney is 65.
Starting point is 02:05:25 I don't know who that is. I think she, wasn't that It's Pat? Oh, really? On SNL. She was also in Pulp Fiction. Okay, yeah. For a quick bit. Actor Bradley Whitford is 65.
Starting point is 02:05:37 You hate him in one thing, and you probably like him in the other. You're going to have to give me more help than that. West Wing. He's well known for. And then he was the dad and get out oh okay he voted for obama he'd vote for him a third time that's a great the great part of that movie mario lopez i think he looks like joe madden oh yeah Is that the guy I'm thinking of? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Exactly. Mario Lopez, 51. Is he on the list? Mario Lopez. Nothing comes immediately to mind.
Starting point is 02:06:12 I think he's real political and stuff, but I don't know of him doing any Torrico-ing. That guy's had a hell of a career, man. You gotta think about it. For being just like the muscle on Saved by the Bell, 40 years, 30 years later, he's like a media
Starting point is 02:06:35 fixture. Where are the rest of those losers? One of them's dead. Didn't Screech do porn or something? Yeah. And then died. Oh, he died? I think so. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:06:47 Yeah. And then Julianne Koepke is 70. In 1971, Julianne Koepke was on a flight. There was 92 people on that flight. Julianne Kepke was the only survivor. Where was he sitting? Well, first of all, the name Julianne is not a he,
Starting point is 02:07:20 although you're very progressive. Julianne would work. I guess I was hearing Julianne. Yeah, Julianne Kepke. I don't know, but we need to find out where she was sitting, and we need to do that exact same thing. Like, if you found out she was in the bathroom, would you just sit in the bathroom for every flight?
Starting point is 02:07:39 I would do that anyways. You're already there. Anytime you got to go. It doesn't say here. Doesn't say where she was sitting? How's she looking? Yeah, not great. She was a German-Peruvian mammologist.
Starting point is 02:08:00 Which at first I thought was about, like, boobs. Apparently it's just mammals. Oh. Well, all mammals have boobs, right? Yeah. Can you milk me, Greg? Born on this day, now dead, Chris Penn. Damn, that one was tough.
Starting point is 02:08:16 He was great. Reservoir. Yeah, loved him. Like, really, even though he was going pretty hard to paint, kind of felt like his brother was going harder. And then dead on this day, still dead, Billy Thomas. That is Buckwheat from The Little Rascals. Old man loves that one over here.
Starting point is 02:08:41 That's my wheelhouse. And then died on this day in 2004. At the age of 52. Christopher Reeve. Wow. I'm not gonna do it. Why?
Starting point is 02:08:58 Who was felled by the curse of Superman. You know there's a curse of Superman? People who had played Superman. I did hear that. It's like the Madden curse. Superman. People who had played Superman. I did hear that. It's like the Madden curse. Right. Bad stuff happening to him. Which we added McCaffrey to.
Starting point is 02:09:11 Have you guys... Is he in most of the episodes that you're watching right now, or just a few? Episodes? Of the boys. Isn't it... Don't nod over there. I thought it was about... We can now attack the boys together. I thought it was about Superman. Alright, it's Superman, but he can't walk.
Starting point is 02:09:33 It's Superman, but he can't fix his router. I've restarted it. It's the Hulk, but he's got to wait in the kids' pickup line. Aren't you Superman? And he gets pissed. He's pissed at the wait time. And all of a sudden he gets his head over.
Starting point is 02:09:58 Oh, man. Have you guys seen the trailer? No. There's a Christopher Reeve movie coming out. Like it's a documentary, obviously. It's not like somebody playing. Yeah, I think it's a documentary. I don't know.
Starting point is 02:10:11 But I saw a trailer this weekend. Like, whoa, this is in the theaters? And I thought, I wonder if the boys will go. And I thought, this will be cool to go see by myself. And I will do that. I'm happy for you. And that was Today in History.
