Are we live? I don't know. Are we on now? I think we're on now. Okay. I was just hitting it to see if it worked. Okay. I didn't mean to do that. Some people end up pregnant right there. We're going to test that out first. I meant to tell you about Bear Fight Whiskey, but I'll do that in a few minutes. It's a nice bottle. It really is Bear all yelling at you manly manly look right there That's a tease, okay
Starting point is 00:01:41 So I'm Dan McDonald I'm Jacob I'm Jake Kebb. I'm Blake Jones. We got Video CK over there. No? Alright. I don't hate it. We could call him CKY. Boy. What's that mean? You can't kill yourself. The predecessor to Jackass Which when I woke up over the weekend on my guys trip was just playing on the menu screen type thing on On television. How was Andrew WK? Yeah, were you you were thinking you'd come in your desk you see K Andrew CK and CKY excuse me Andrew WK and CKY very similar Andrew CK and CKY, excuse me, Andrew WK and CKY, very similar. Just like gross and doing crazy stunts. CKY was a band also. With Bam Margera's brother. Are we doing a show right now? I can't tell what's happening.
Starting point is 00:02:41 Check. I think we're doing like four different shows. Oh, look. Clayton has a mic. All right. AndrewCK has a mic. That's right. Anyway, we have a lot of content today. We are doing a program. I look at the run sheet.
Starting point is 00:02:56 It does say the pre-show spot is Bear Fight Whiskey. I didn't do that. I messed things up with the audio. Oh, on my run sheet, I was told yesterday it's Aaron's birthday. And my wife said, that's why I don't think I'll be home for dinner tomorrow night. Whoa!
Starting point is 00:03:22 All right. So yes, that was my exact reaction inside my head. And the same reaction at first. She told me tomorrow's Erin's birthday. You just blinked at her like we did? Yes, all right. Erin. I think she has a friend, I don't know,
Starting point is 00:03:39 she has a lot of friends. Jennifer, Erin. Karen. Whatever, Karen. Oh my God, they're all on my list. My celebrity list, I love Donovan's old bit. Yeah, the whole bus. Yeah, he said like on his wife's hall pass like Steve Francis was on there and that if she ever ran into him in a club, she could probably have sex with Steve Francis.
Starting point is 00:04:03 Like she's a good looking lady. Especially now. He's a he's a hound He you know well, that's tough That's a tough and I think my wife as well could probably have sex with some of the people that she wants to have sex with Yeah, there is anyone I think Willie guys is not cheating on his wife Maybe and Steve's on that's a that's a possibility you get him on the right trajectory like right me and Michelle tefoya I'm there. I'm right there.
Starting point is 00:04:26 I would agree with that. And the Steve Francis one, not to get lost in the weeds, that's a tough example of this. Because maybe you meet with your wife, and you set these names out when you're in your 20s or early 30s. And it's kind of set in stone. You can't add a new one when you're 50.
Starting point is 00:04:41 And then Steve Francis. Like I just added Aaron. Bought really high on Steve Francis, but the stock has depreciated significantly. He looks like a character from Bugs Life now. Really? OK, I haven't seen him. It's really bad.
Starting point is 00:04:53 I think you might have a problem. But number one, so that's my number one thing. I got the good times tonight. I think I'm going to have dinner and watch the Anthony Davis comedy show to prepare for tomorrow's For our show I'm gonna watch it so you don't have to you know what I've been What was telling me he started it and couldn't make it like five minutes. It was so bad But he does it with the guys the guys from impractical jokers so I can understand why you wouldn't be able to watch it
Starting point is 00:05:23 Yeah, I mean we that there's so many tentacles of this that are annoying that the fact that our future, our now-franchised cornerstone is really good friends with the Impractical Joker guys. Like, Luca kind of hand-waved at Dude Perfect because they're here and it's local and it's ... Yeah, like Anthony Davis sought them out. Yeah, like he's a guy who thought I can't get enough in practical jokers I kind of vibe with them. I should be on the show.
Starting point is 00:05:51 Luca was a it was a language barrier. It's like he's like yeah, yeah, okay Yeah, he didn't know what he was doing. And athletes tend to think they're funny Oh Anthony Davis definitely strikes me as a guy who thinks he's funny What I've been watching is uh, and I'll have a report at some point, is the Netflix series on the USA Basketball Olympic run, and it's really good. Oh, really? Okay.
Starting point is 00:06:14 But it's really weird because I watch AD and I have no feeling of like, oh my guy on this team. It's really weird. Just terrible. But it is a very fun documentary. If we're going into what have we been watching lately, I've now started and gotten through the first season. It was only six episodes, 20 minutes each, 25 minutes each.
Starting point is 00:06:36 Portlandia. Oh, really? You never did that? Have you? Yeah, off and on. I like it. Yeah. It's really good.
Starting point is 00:06:43 It's a great nighttime. You got to watch a show with your lady. I mean, I feel like there's some misses in there. Sure. Just because of the way the show is, you know, some of them have, there's not really a plot at times. No, it's kind of a sketch show, kind of, but it's not a sketch. It's really, I don't know, I like it. I've liked it, I've enjoyed my journey so far last night was
Starting point is 00:07:06 Season 2 episode 2 maybe the best one I've seen anyway. I didn't intend to bring that up what I did it's a very talented Apparently so I don't nothing stands out for me like oh, I remember his SNL career cuz he did oh Really like what did he do on SNL? Uh? well, he did... Oh really? Like what did he do on SNL? Uh, well he did the... He did Lawrence Welk, which is where we got Tiny Hands Lady. Okay. With Chris and Wig. But also he did the...
Starting point is 00:07:35 Maybe it was in one of the documentaries, but it's like a send up of Mexican TV where he does the little fake rim shot. Oh my god. You've never seen that? I don't think so. Well they do a version of it now too. I might have missed a couple years. They have a new Latino guy now and I think he's very funny. And you can tell he grew up with his parents watching Saburo Gigante because he does a version of that now and it's hilarious. It's ripe for parody. But Fred Armisen is just kind of the art, he seems like the art cast member. I'm pretty sure he played drums for most of the SNL 50 concert. Yeah, he looks to be an accomplished drummer. He'll pull that out on the Portlandia now and again. But before
Starting point is 00:08:22 we start all content stuff, whatever, I got something. This could lead us into sports content, actually, unless you got some other stuff. But I wanted to, I don't know if it's an announcement or a display, but it's kind of big. It's part of my growth as a human into a What do you call it like a more Well rounded a better a better human than most people. I'm trying to get better and better and improve myself So yeah, I Need to show you something I need to show you something
Starting point is 00:09:10 Made a purchase. He got it before I did the Luca. I'm sure he did. Yeah heck. Yeah. Oh Wow God that's clean dang man that the numbers look so tough on there How did this man make us love 77? I don't know I thought it he'd change his number You look good. Yeah, that's awesome. That's very cool. Let's see the back. Is there any purple or is it...
Starting point is 00:09:34 It's a fish! Oh yeah! Wow! Wow. Look at that ass. Hahaha! I got Chris Young, but... Is that a thing? Yeah. Watch Chris Young butt. Is that a thing?
Starting point is 00:09:48 Yeah, watch Chris Young in the mound. Real flat ass? And diaper butt, yeah. Well. That's fantastic news for you. Yeah, got it in. Had to go eBay. Yeah. Like the NBA shop or whatever.
Starting point is 00:10:03 Doesn't even carry the black. And then to get it you have to wait until March 30th or something. I couldn't do that. Had to have it now. Yeah. I ordered a medium of the Jersey and I don't think I'm going to get it for quite some time. The real Jersey. Oh yeah. I've got like 10 of his jerseys. Wow. A lot of discounts and some China purchasing. You know what's really sad? I mean I have like all of them together. I've got like four Euro jerseys, two Slovenia jerseys
Starting point is 00:10:32 and a few Mavs jerseys right there in my closet. I mean it's all sad. Got my Luca, the two pairs of Lucas that I have, the one that was given to us and a pair that I bought like when they first first came out that were way different looking before he had his own shoe I had those are just there and I'm like what do I do with these stare at them wear them I'm not gonna wear them it's all sad but when you go to that NBA store like you can see the incredible discount if you want a Mavs, you can get that t-shirt for like $12 or something. I heard like the Mavs were, obviously,
Starting point is 00:11:10 but you can't get one there, right? It's not like you could buy one at a Mavs game. Of course, that makes sense. What do you, oh, now they've just cleared out the? I believe so. They don't sell them anymore at all? Yeah. Erased.
Starting point is 00:11:23 Yeah. That's a funny bit, because that reminds me of a Ticket radio station in Dallas bit. Because I was thinking about, it'd be a good bit if they ever... You know how SNL has Norm MacDonald on the year after they fire him. And then it was like a big thing and everyone was like, oh. That's shame. And I was thinking how the ticket wouldn't do that with us. And the reason they wouldn't, and like it's a valid reason but it also shouldn't matter if you believe in what you got then you don't.
Starting point is 00:12:03 The reason would be they would not want it, and they used to say this when Reiner left. They don't want that to diminish who is on the air there because it would be very popular to be a huge deal like if we just came out and did a song at Ticketstock and then left. Like it would be a huge memorable thing or whatever you know it's not on the air whatever but they wouldn't want to do that because then it would be like, oh look, they're better than these guys that are on now. Some people would say that, some people might not, whatever. But that, like, SNL did that and in fact Norm kind of got jeered a little bit in his monologue, like, the reason I'm, uh, they have me back, it's not
Starting point is 00:12:44 because I'm funny now, it's because the show sucks now. And everybody's like, like, the reason I'm, they had me back, it's not because I'm funny now, it's because the show sucks now. And everybody's like, Oh, don't say that. He's like, Oh, you'll see later. So it's, it's, it's, it's, it's just, they had the belief in themselves that it doesn't matter. I'm sure some people will say, yeah, we should have and think of that you're having norman and I hated Colin Quinn. I wasn't quick to grab Colin Quinn, but they just did realize, hey, this will be a big cultural moment. I want to do that. Seems like you're talking about trying to do the best show.
Starting point is 00:13:16 Yeah, and I was just thinking that would be a good bit. Why did I start to say that? I have no idea. I was leading to something really cool. There was Portlandia. There was- Ticket. Aaron's birthday. Luca. I have no idea. I was leading to something really cool. There was Portlandia. There was. Ticket.
Starting point is 00:13:26 Aaron's birthday. Luca. Aaron's birthday, Luca. You bought the shirt. I like where you're at in here though. Can't buy the Luca shirt anymore. Man, that's it. So now the Mavs don't want to have the Luca shirt displayed
Starting point is 00:13:41 because then people are like, so they think if they just don't display the Luca shirt you'll forget you just won't even know that and you'll just think they've had Anthony Davis forever thank you yeah that was really good thank you for weaving me back and that does remind me that bear fight American single malt whiskey 90 proof American single malt whiskey aged in its first fill bourbon barrels. Sorry. Finished in peated smoke oak and sherry casks.
Starting point is 00:14:13 This award winner is approachable and versatile. With notes of dried fig, ripe red apple, candied dates, sherry oak, and a whiff of peat smoke. Bare Fight Kentucky Reserve, this 90-proof Kentucky straight bourbon finished in Reposado tequila casks. How do you like that? I like it. Pulls bold and spicy flavors from a high rye bourbon, complemented by the vanilla, caramel, and subtle tequila and smoky characters of the secondary cask
Starting point is 00:14:45 finishing. Ready for a bold new favorite? Yes. Yeah. That's rhetorical. Order Bear Fight Whiskey now at bearfightwhiskey.com. If you place an order, send us a pic. Are you enjoying your bear fight? Oh, okay. Always helps. Like, subscribe, five star reviews, do all that shit. We need help. We'll put it on the wall. Yeah. Do all of it. Hey actually that's not a bad idea. This weekend maybe we'll talk early bird later. Yeah we have gumbo time. Grab yourself a little early bird and do us a favor spend ten minutes and just go like every video on our YouTube page
Starting point is 00:15:31 Just knock it out. What were you saying Clayton like sharing? Is that the thing somebody was saying that to me? Yeah, if you share a YouTube video Turns out all this stuff everyone finds annoying on every video and podcast that you watch or listen to actually matters. So to listen to actually matters so to come on D back DZ bag nation get out there and like it up does it hit the bell okay does it help the algorithm yeah yes talking algo I did think it was very funny after after you know whatever you brought it up somebody sent us a post from the ticket Reddit where Peter Welpton, a host of the kick around, co-host of the kick around had posted a,
Starting point is 00:16:11 hey, Kat's got an AMA and nobody came before, so please come to this. Kat Earl Bosch. Yeah, I wonder how much of that we have to reset. But first of all, that's hilarious. Just the fact that it exists. Who were we talking about yesterday that was very Jeb Bush, please clap.
Starting point is 00:16:32 But also it would be very out of character for us, but it would also be hilarious and very sternish to just go. And also go and not be rude and not as Corporate walk around let us do this or that just go to the AMA and ask like Extremely specific programming questions like inside baseball type stuff. You think that would cause buzz if we just went and walked around Yeah, but I again we talked about this It it would be very out of character and like when I see people do stuff like that Even though it usually does work out for them barstool being a big one. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I just don't it would feel it would get
Starting point is 00:17:11 Increased numbers and all that and we just doesn't feel like our move. We could drive the the van around Why don't we buy a booth? We could buy a band out free trial. I mean we need numbers. They wouldn't sell us a booth. Absolutely not. Could you buy a spot? On the station. You know I used to I used to wonder about that because and I actually On one hand I say like oh, I wish I knew what the rule actually was but like at anybody's job Most the rules are just like fuck
Starting point is 00:17:42 I don't know let's figure it out case by case. Because it was always strange to me that we would run ads for churches. Obviously the thought being, if the local Southlake mosque wanted to run an ad about how this is the way, this is the way, this is the only way, which is what Christianity, could you do that? Because some of the stuff we advertise
Starting point is 00:18:04 that was church stuff was not like just, Hey, this is a community. It was kind of like, Hey, are you ready to save your soul? Well, and that would be right before like a boner pill. Bucks, bucks, cabaret. Yeah, exactly. So I just, I wonder what the rules are. I imagine there's a lot of discretion in the hands of the, uh, you know, the programmer. Yeah, they could just turn down. Sure.
Starting point is 00:18:31 Sometimes they would turn down, I think. Yeah. The hardcore strip clubs or something. Oh yeah, I remember like the six months of the gun place. Crazy gun dealer. Yeah. That was a wild time. A lot of talk about that.
Starting point is 00:18:43 It was good until. That guy's wild. What's that? That guy's wild. No A lot of talk about that. It was good until... That guy's wild. What's that? That guy's wild. No surprises. The crazy gun dealer. CKY knows crazy gun dealer. He was doing like Yosemite Sam ads, like as kids are being stepped over in their kindergarten class.
Starting point is 00:18:58 We're like, what do you want us to say? His ads now are pretty funny. I'm back. So tomorrow Blake won't be here. Wow. And you need to hear this. We did a little show off the air. I don't know if you know this.
Starting point is 00:19:13 So it's because of Argyle basketball. This is my sports for the day, by the way. I don't know if you have a spot or anything you want to work in here. What do you mean? My sports today is Argyle basketball. So let's talk about it. You have some more audio?
Starting point is 00:19:27 No, not yet. I just I've done a lot of research. OK. We will live stream Blake's game tomorrow. All right. Go on. Numbers. No, so I was like, why?
Starting point is 00:19:42 I don't know. I was thinking about this last night, and I asked Blake this morning. So they have a game. The girls team has a game at 1 PM on a Friday. And then I got to thinking, wait, that's when school is. And what an inconvenience for parents. And really, us, we're losing Blake for a day. What an inconvenience for parents and really us.
Starting point is 00:20:06 You know, we're losing Blake for a day. I'm used to it. Why at 1 p.m.? That's just how the playoffs are at some level. But do you know why? The head coach for the Lady Eagles basketball team has a son who is a freshman that plays on the boys team. The boys play on Friday evening, he wants to watch his son play, so the girls will be playing. Different locations?
Starting point is 00:20:35 Yeah, the girls will play in Abilene, the boys play in Fort Worth. So this will be the closest I ever get to Craig Way, doing an Argyle basketball doubleheader tomorrow. How far away is Abilene? Three hours from Wiley. And then, I don't know, two hours to Fort Worth. Yeah, it's about two from Fort Worth. Okay, so. We can get two and a half. We can get it done.
Starting point is 00:20:58 But, I'm like, wait, so how does the coach of the team have that much power that he can just tell everyone, hey wait, my son is playing later so I want to do that? I don't know. I mean, that's kind of why he's spaced out playing on Mondays and Thursdays. Everyone else typically plays on Tuesdays, Fridays. And so I think they must have flipped to play Thursday or Friday. He lost the toss and got to call the time on Friday.
Starting point is 00:21:25 And he said, OK, we're playing at 1 o'clock. I didn't realize that's part of this process either. So they flip a coin for location? Well, he probably says, I want to play on Thursday. Other team says, no, we want to play on Friday. OK, flip for it. OK. Other team must have won the flip and said, OK, we're playing Friday.
Starting point is 00:21:44 He deferred. And then he got to choose the game time I would assume. The location must already be set. Yeah because it's they're out in... Okay and so they would tell him though all right since you lost the date you get to pick the time and he can just pick the middle of the school day so now all the kids got to miss school. Not that the girls games are probably real heavily attended that's really gonna the playoffs I would say it's ain't gonna help a 1 p.m. game I wouldn't think was gonna help things no he gets to take two teams out of school now well that's the first thing the students did what asked yeah try to get everyone out of school can they go and
Starting point is 00:22:21 arrange a bus to go out there. I think some are. Like, would that be worth? That's like your daughter's walkout. Oh, we can miss class? Okay, yeah, I'll go. Dude, I remember when I was in high school, people traveling down to Georgetown for girls and boys soccer,
Starting point is 00:22:38 and they would miss a day. Like, just to go. Yeah. A positive people miss for the state basketball championships. Yeah, because some of those are on Fridays. Yeah. I'm positive people miss for the state basketball championships. Yeah, cause some of those are on Fridays. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:49 Damn, this guy swings a hammer. It'd be tough look to get destroyed by Chavez. We won't. If this is how it's gonna go down or you're calling the shots. Yeah, let's bring that up. It's viewer mail day, but we got a good viewer mail about that girl. Do you have it? I think I up. It's viewer mail day, but we got a good viewer mail about that girl.
Starting point is 00:23:05 Do you have it? I think I do. Today's big mail. The Thursday viewer mail follow up extravaganza inclement fossil thing. That's coming up later. Yeah, so her name is Aliyah Chavez, and she plays for Lubbock, Monterey.
Starting point is 00:23:23 And she's the number one female college basketball player in the country in high school. Like, number one, number one. Not, there's, you know, sometimes there's five different sites who have a number one. That's, this is the consensus number one. Chris emailed us, I've been to a handful of her games. This is my elementary age daughter's dance class.
Starting point is 00:23:42 Does a dance at their halftime a couple times a year. Chavez is really good. The first time I watched her I think she was a sophomore. Truly looked like a boy playing against girls. She just moves like a dude. The team around her kind of sucks but Blake has the opportunity to see the potential Mexican Caitlin Clark on Friday. Now as I aside and editorialize that first part will limit it from being that second part nationally. But he concludes, and no Jake, she is not better than Brawny James. To which I made a note here, don't even remember my own take on this.
Starting point is 00:24:16 Yeah, I don't either. I think my point was that I think that they're probably like the top WNBA players ever right now are better basketball players than Brawny. I think that's a bad take. I think Brawny is better than any female basketball player who's ever played. I think you're probably right.
Starting point is 00:24:36 Just based on the fact that, yeah, they will scrimmage against like high school kids. Like not even really good. The women's basketball players? Yeah. Right at the top? Yeah. I mean.
Starting point is 00:24:47 I'd be interested to see that. Anecdotally, our Ohio University's women's college basketball team, occasionally I would get, I don't know how I got involved with this, but I would get to play against them in scrimmages. Like at the rec? Because I was, no, the coach would bring us in, would have some of us come in.
Starting point is 00:25:06 I guess one of my buddies knew somebody. And so we would play pickup basketball. And I'm me. I'm no, you know, just terrible, whatever. But we would hold our own with the women's basketball team. Like I never played high school basketball or anything like that, but could. Did you have a couple of dudes who were like dudes? Like real dudes dude or was it just could any collection of just semi-athletic college dudes. One was a pretty good as I recall high school basketball player but we
Starting point is 00:25:34 the other people were just kind of dudes. It's probably a bad point. It's probably a bad point but my experience with that was when I was in high school, the JV boys basketball coach was super horny. He was having sex with one of the hot girls in my grade. And he was also, as you might have evidence seen by that, he was trying to F everything that moved, which included the female JV coach. Right? Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:02 So we both practiced in the morning in separate gyms, but since he was trying to be cutesy and always like, you know, hey, yours was kind of trying to dunk in front of him, he would have us scrimmage them, except they would start out up 25 or something, and it would be threes and twos, V-2s and ones. And normal high school boys would be like, oh, whatever, let's flirt. You know, this is not serious,
Starting point is 00:26:27 but I was like, fuck that. We are in a hole, guys. You wanna play? Yeah, and I'm of course at that time just tall, so I'm on the block or in the post, and it's like, dude, it's torture chamber time. I got five fouls to use. I'm not.
Starting point is 00:26:42 Would you guys win? It would get close? It would get close It would get close But mostly there was a sense all the other boys on the team seemed to understand the instruction from the coach Which was this is just to f around and kind of flirt and play cutesy and I'm like, oh no. Oh No Protect the paint. So anyways back to Aliyah Chavez I did watch a fair amount of her highlights.
Starting point is 00:27:06 Okay. A little ball is life, a little hoops hype. Got a scouting report for us? Chris is right. She does move like a man. Like a fluid male athlete. Is she tall and big or is she more Caitlin Clarky? Well, Caitlin Clark's not that short, is she? No, but I mean she's l lanky and this girl's bigger. Clayton Clark, she's not like the whoever the
Starting point is 00:27:30 Travis 511 MVP of the WNBA is, I don't remember, but she seems to be more bulky. Not to her. I don't care. You hit the first the top two. Asia, Asia. Yeah.. Well this girl's 511 She also plays a point which I think is just as we have learned with Blake's team Just means the player who can dribble But she's like a true point at 511 and while this is very reassuring to all of you out there you too President Trump She does move like a man, not like a man,
Starting point is 00:28:05 I just mean she moves very fluidly like a male athlete. Still shoots like a girl. Still has a weird, you know, and maybe that's how I shoot, but kind of has a weird Sean Marion chest flip, like sometimes I feel like their hands are going up as they release the ball. She still does that. But you've got your work cut out for you,
Starting point is 00:28:26 I can tell you that. Yeah, it'll be fun. I think this is probably the one of the more- She plays like LeBron. She's big, she shoots and she gets to the paint. Sorry. Yeah, she shoots deep threes. She definitely shoots deep threes.
Starting point is 00:28:40 The LaMelo era is not over. No. But yeah, I think she's probably the best, the most decorated recruit I've ever seen play against Argyle. I mean, Ashlyn Jackson was really good a few years ago. Went to Duke and was McDonald's All-American. But this chick, the number one recruit. So, it's exciting. Should have a big crowd. Hopefully a big listening crowd. Number one recruit who is being, of course, like I said, it's in high school in Lubbock. She's being courted by Tech, Texas, LSU. Although I don't know if LSU is still in the mix,
Starting point is 00:29:14 because as I was reading about on one of the message boards, her and her father's demand out of the gate is $1.3 million. 0.3.. Point three. And they balked at that. And so Texas and tech, again, these are all like rivals in 24 seven posts I was reading. But that she's probably gonna get about a million. Now I don't know what that ends up mean.
Starting point is 00:29:37 Is it a million a year? I don't know what that means, but. That's amazing. Yeah, but didn't that tech guy just make $4 billion on a sale? Yeah. Now tech's going to get every athlete out there? Yeah, they have an oil and gas guy
Starting point is 00:29:50 who doesn't appear to be that much older than me, maybe 40s. And he's gung-ho Texas tech sports guy. And he's done very well. I mean, that's why they had the football signing class they just had. The guy will just openly tweet about it, like, hey, dropping a bag on another one. Which every other school has always had.
Starting point is 00:30:14 It's just when tech shows up and does it, people are like, what? Who invited Cousin Eddie? No, it's very interesting. Remember for years, who's the oil guy that had D. Boone Pickens. Ohio State. Or Oklahoma State.
Starting point is 00:30:27 CKY. Cowboy. Yeah. That was always alleged. I guess that was good enough to get them at least to that level, but they could never be really nationally prominent. No, but I mean, that's still money well spent, man. If you're in Oklahoma State, and you I mean they've had runs before, but if you look at
Starting point is 00:30:49 the last 20 years, he bought, he got his money's worth. Is that like tax deductible? Like why do people, if you're just stoked on tech, you went to tech. Number one, I can't imagine giving my college money. Same here. Well, I don't have one. But if I did, we spend so much money on college and then you now want donations? I've given a few hundred dollars here and there to UNT's grad program when they called me. At some point had the thought of like that. I just thought why am I doing this?
Starting point is 00:31:26 I liked the program. I liked the people there. They had cool stuff for you to do in the industry, which I guess cost money. But for some reason, I did it. And then that's one that I, like the food bank people will call me when my credit card expires. And I'm like, yeah, let's re-up it.
Starting point is 00:31:41 But this one, I just thought it was not it. I liked my time a lot. I loved college. I thought it was the greatest. But I-up it. But this one, I just, I liked my time a lot. I loved college. I thought it was the greatest, but like I paid for it. I paid at the time. I didn't, you know, Eat-Sees hasn't called me back
Starting point is 00:31:54 after I went and bought food there and then said, hey, would you consider just donating $5 since you enjoyed Eat-Sees? Like, yeah, no. It makes no sense. The chat says you can make it, or you talk to charity, charitable deductions.
Starting point is 00:32:06 Yeah, I would figure so. Does that make sense? So our NIL counts as a charitable deduction? We have charity money to dole out, which we've been threatening to do for a while, but we have to at some point here. Maybe before tax day. not sure how that works yeah i'm trying to look it up here says it depends on if the NFL NIL collective has a five oh one three
Starting point is 00:32:35 jerry says i don't know what's looking to it you guys think uh... lucas said yeah i do i watch some of that game last, really highlights. I watched some this morning. I think he is sad. Of course he's sad. I think it's... So follow me on this, because I know he went to Real Madrid, correct? And that was the biggest of the big. I don't know about their basketball program, but I would guess it's very big over there.
Starting point is 00:33:04 Even it is like soccer. It's one of the bigger ones in Europe. I don't know about their basketball program, but I would guess it's very big over there, even... It is. ...like soccer. It's one of the bigger ones in Europe. But it feels like Luka is more of a, I'm an under, like I'm from a tiny country, and somehow I'm so good I could bring this country into the Olympic tournament. Like, this country has no business being there, but having this one player that's this good gives us all hope then and we can actually be on the Olympic stage. And I feel I felt that way too with the Mavs. The Mavs are an all-so-ran. I grew up, they were a joke. You know the 80s Mavs or whatever and they were kind of like whatever.
Starting point is 00:33:43 They're not really basketball royalty they got in the you know one of those teams that wins a title but then they're gone like some teams win a title and they stick around for a while but then they're just like this is the Mavs. Well the other thing too is they've never been thought of outside of DFW as cool you know what I mean like so even when they have their you know it's a big market, whatever, but it is kind of an also-ran because even Dirk wasn't really that cool. They've never been like the Lakers type thing.
Starting point is 00:34:11 And I agree with you. I feel like it's an uncomfortable scene-per. They're always going to be second. At the highest, their height, they could be second in their own town because the Cowboys are that big. So yeah, it was like, oh, that's still kind of an underdoggy type thing. He's the little guy that just this one player could let us all imagine that we might be up there with the Lakers
Starting point is 00:34:34 in Boston, at least while he's around. And then now he's with the Lakers, and it just feels so, it's very corporatey. It's very, well, this is the machine that we just win titles and we didn't have Wilt so we went and got Wilt. We didn't have Kareem homegrown. We just went and got Kareem. People just want to come here.
Starting point is 00:34:57 We pulled off some slick trades to even get Magic here while we had Kareem and you know the Kobe thing similar they kind of pulled some moves to get Kobe they same thing with Shaq that was that was bullish when Shaq went to LA that was terrible but because he was a really good player in in, and all of a sudden he's in the Lakers. Like, wait, how did the Lakers get this guy? LeBron? Almost had Chris Paul in his prime. They got that trade rejected, right?
Starting point is 00:35:36 So he can't reject trade. It's all of it, yeah. It's weird that he's a part of that. But yeah, so the same thing. Like, now LeBron just wants to go there because it's LA, or because it's the L thing. Like now LeBron just wants to go there because it's LA. Or because it's the Lakers and now they end up getting Luka. And they're kind of set for the next decade and it just doesn't seem right and it just doesn't... I wonder this too. I'm sure the playing with LeBron thing is a weird bit because just like you have to acquiesce for the final introduction of the game or pregame you you're there
Starting point is 00:36:07 with LeBron like Luca has never been anywhere where he's felt like I'm not the best player it doesn't matter if he's 15 playing with 20 year olds it doesn't matter if he's they just trade for Christopsk and he's another unicorn like he's always he immediately he's the best player and then everything always revolves around him and I think he is the best player there but you do have this thing where LeBron is probably still the primary ball handler I didn't get to watch a ball I just watched highlights but a lot of it is LeBron still bringing the ball down the floor, and you know, that's the way Luka plays. It might have been about even, but the fact that it's even
Starting point is 00:36:50 is crazy for Luka. Between AR, Luka, and LeBron, it was about even, just back and forth, solo, ISO ball. But seeing it be anything more, or anything less than 75% of the time, Luka is very weird. Yeah, like you want to... If you can reduce the wear and tear on him, that's a good idea. Yeah, and I think the way the Mavericks had been doing it this year was perfect. They had moved him. His usage rate this year was down
Starting point is 00:37:20 well below his career low outside of his rookie year. They had figured it out this year. They had figured out a way to take him off the ball some. Now he got hurt and that's a whole other get lost in the weeds about how much of his conditioning had to do with his injury. But the Mavericks had figured out this year a way to save him by using him off the ball. Last night he looked awful. I don't think he looks happy. It's gonna take some time. We know that. Dude, the Mavericks went and got by using him off the ball. Last night he looked awful. I don't think he looks happy.
Starting point is 00:37:45 It's gonna take some time. We know that. Dude, the Mavericks went and got Kyrie and missed the playoffs. So it's gonna take time. And they're not in a terrible spot like the Mavs are. But as I was saying to some of the boys this morning, like man, you watch this Lakers game and it's like,
Starting point is 00:38:01 they could really use like a, I don't know, like a PJ Washington type and maybe like one real center. Like a Gafford type that can finish a role. Then that team with Luca? Be set. Because watching him try to do pick and roll work with Jackson Hayes is disgusting. You are disrespecting my man's name. Just lost lob passes, just not, it's just gross. And then they can't defend anybody
Starting point is 00:38:31 because they traded Anthony Davis and he was their entire defense. Yeah. But they have LeBron and Luca and a couple of other pieces that are good enough. They're gonna get into the playoffs. The Mavericks, I don't know. But yes, he does look, and I watched him a couple of other pieces that are good enough, they're gonna get into the playoffs. The Mavericks, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:38:48 But yes, he does look, and I watched him even in the post game, and he doesn't look that happy to me. It was really weird seeing him inbound the basketball. He got humble, twice. Twice he's inbounder. I mean, LeBron was hot, and Luca was like one for a million, so I get it, but it was still weird. And then LeBron made one and missed the other but You know watching Luca throw full court passes to LeBron
Starting point is 00:39:12 That's tough. It's not gonna get better folks No, I mean Just doesn't yeah, it doesn't look right him in that uniform for sure. I don't know it's all It's it's I mean we're resigned to it. It's we can't change it. I'm pretty sure it's Not a dream now. Yeah, but What order do you guys want to go in I have Jake? Calling for the ball I have Blake calling for the ball. We have big viewer mailbag. I want Blake Bitt. You want Blake Bitt? Yeah. Well then I gotta tell you it's brought to you by
Starting point is 00:39:52 Ownwell. Ownwell helps homeowners save on property taxes. 88% of their customers receive a reduction. That's the good reduction. Save an average of $1,100. It says 1.1K here, and that always says... You sign up in three minutes. You go to ownwell.com slash the dumb zone. Sign up in three minutes. And they also... I guess you you can put
Starting point is 00:40:26 your information in there and they will contact you. So how did they contact you just a couple weeks ago? They sent you an email saying hey I can lower this bill on you. Yeah, yeah send me an email reduce my phone bill. In fact I'll show you my little portal here and these are all the ways that they can help you save. Electric bill, cable, security system, home phone phone and then when you want to re up on something you click on it and say reduce my electric bill and then they will get to work Wow it's amazing what's the CTA that stands for call to action ownwell.com slash the dumb zone you pay
Starting point is 00:41:00 nothing upfront 25% contingency fee which is lower than what you're gonna get at the rest of the market in this space, and again, you only pay that if they save you money at ownwell.com slash The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone. Very nice of Ownwell to sponsor this Blake bit. I think they called, corporate called us and said we'd like to sponsor this particular segment. That's email. I got so thank you very much to own well
Starting point is 00:41:29 So I've been holding on to this for a little bit And I I really enjoy gadgets Electronics I miss going to fries and Circuit City and just walking around Playing with stuff looking at it. I love the demos. Little sharper image. Yeah, that was good. Fry's was the best. What was it, Radio Shack?
Starting point is 00:41:53 I don't know, I miss those kinds of stores. And I feel like it also kinda leads you into where technology is headed, and I enjoy that part, what are gonna be the staples in the next decade? And so something I try to not miss reading up on and watching a bunch of videos is CES, Consumer Electronics Series. And I kind of wanted to just update you guys
Starting point is 00:42:21 on some of the big things that was at CES 2025 in Las Vegas. I love it. So, it does kind of give you a glimpse into what we'll be doing in the next decade, because I went back and I pulled some articles from CES 2015, and it was all about OLED TVs, which is the staple now.
Starting point is 00:42:42 They were getting you ready for streaming TV. Sling TV was big at that one, and the idea that you could stream all of your favorites with one box, and I think TiVo was kind of a part of it. Which is an idea, of course, that I had in 2004 in college. Yeah, in Plano, yeah. Drones, smart home stuff, wearable technologies. That was all the stuff that was going on 10 years ago and now it's just a part of your everyday life.
Starting point is 00:43:10 Ubiquitous. So I've got some video to kinda help illustrate what we're talking about here, but here's just like the few top things at CES. And the first one is, rather than charge your phone, you just replace the case. So you've got a couple different cases inside this little box and you insert your phone
Starting point is 00:43:31 and it will trade out the case which charges the battery. So rather than your phone is hinder to this cable for a couple hours at night or what have you, you just insert your phone into this box and it will switch the battery inside. Which I thought is a pretty good idea. I don't really understand how it's doing it, even watching it, but it is cool.
Starting point is 00:43:53 It kind of looks like you're putting a disk into like a Sega. Yeah. Like a cartridge type thing. Right. But just within a few seconds you get a fresh battery. And on your screen right there on your interface it shows you where all the batteries are
Starting point is 00:44:06 as far as they're charging. Yeah. The one thing I could see about this that would be helpful is that it would keep people from grabbing their phone when they're in bed. Like if you wake up in the middle of the night and you're like, oh, I can't go to sleep. A lot of people just grab their phone,
Starting point is 00:44:20 but this would make that harder. Because it would be stuck over on something as opposed to on some. No, you pop it in there for two seconds yes it gives you a new case right basically so the case is charged always a case charging yes you don't leave it on there overnight and then I have to okay it's like replacing the battery instead of charging the battery which is well I can see the battery I think the case is charging the battery, which is... Well, I don't think it's replacing the battery. I think the case is charging the battery, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:44:49 Well, whatever. I'm saying it's like that. It's like you drive up and replace your battery instead of drive up, park, charge that battery. Interesting. So this box costs 700 bucks right now. No. Which is, yeah, really expensive. That's how all this goes. No, which is yeah really expensive
Starting point is 00:45:05 That's all this goes but a glimpse into the future. Maybe we're not charging our stuff anymore We're just replacing either cases or little charging ports Okay, so the next one this is a robot vacuum now these little Roombas and most people have, but the new technology with this is that most Roombas will just like scoot your socks and it'll get stuck and it'll just jam it
Starting point is 00:45:32 to where it just malfunctions. This has a little arm that'll pop out and pick up debris in its way and will put it in a pile off to the side. I don't know, it's an arm that kind of looks like a mic arm or a lamp, like a desk lamp. This just seems super cumbersome to me. Also, obviously I have the desire to kick it
Starting point is 00:45:53 right off of its post right there. But that's the main reason why I don't like these Roombas, is our house is never clean enough to run one. But if it can move stuff out of the way, then maybe that's a positive. I'm gonna go fail on this. Okay. These are not for everybody,
Starting point is 00:46:13 but I just wanted to give you a thumbs. I just don't think that this is, as I'm watching it work, it seems like this is, you know, it would take forever. It's in beta. It's in beta. But one of these is probably gonna cost you about $1,500. So this thing's gonna take my job, huh?
Starting point is 00:46:25 Okay, pal. Maybe. All right, number three is something that is for sure gonna take off. And it's, televisions will not have cables running out of the back of it anymore. Okay. They, what brand is this?
Starting point is 00:46:39 Samsung has a, like an all in one box where you plug in your cable box if you still use one your Xbox and all that and it syncs to the TV via Bluetooth and so this little unit right here will just be on a shelf or behind the TV and all of your electronics will run to that that way you don't have cables running from behind your TV if you do have it mounted. How does the power work? Well, I'm very old manny on that. I mean, I like a nice hard wire. Boy, I don't.
Starting point is 00:47:10 But for the aesthetic. It's just as far as making sure that it works. Yeah, there's definitely something about that. But yeah, things are better and better. But it is nice to. So what are they selling? The TV comes with this Connect box? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:27 And so all of your stuff will run into that. The other thing is now when TVs are off, they're just kind of an eyesore, because it's just a big black thing up in your room. TVs now, like this, will have, yeah, will display artwork. I bought a frame. Or pictures or something. Yes, frames.
Starting point is 00:47:43 That's a Samsung frame. That's just the new one. So your TV has a frame on it, so it looks like a picture. Yeah Yeah, so when it's off and not being used it's a Part of cool. Yeah, that's a bit design. That's a bit like the future like yes You have back to the future or whatever the big TV on the wall, but it's always displaying something is always a Maybe it's a displaying something. Maybe it's displaying an aquarium. I'm sure you could pull this off but one thing, speaking of like Back to the Future and depictions of the future you would see that I still think is a bit weird. The integration of your, let's
Starting point is 00:48:18 say your phone and your television to where like if I'm sitting there with my family and we're watching TV but my mom calls and wants to FaceTime, the interaction between the television and us, that should just come up on the screen. And the TV should be able to work as a camera, HD, whatever, if you want it to. And then they're on the big screen, like they're in in their house Because that's what you would see in movies. That's very depiction of the future, but we don't I don't think we want video calls and I think Every depiction of the future from the past had us by now Doing video calls and we do have we have that technology, but do your kids not do it a lot never
Starting point is 00:49:04 Okay, that's all I need to know. Because I mean... Rarely. They will do it though. I feel like I see people out in public doing it all the time. Yeah, they do it with each other. I'm like, what? I don't do that, but I see people doing it like walking, holding a phone, teens, all
Starting point is 00:49:20 the time. So I just assumed we were old. But that's a, so the box is here, and then if I have like an Apple TV, what do I plug the Apple TV into? Into the box, everything goes into the box. That way the TV, most of the time is artwork or pictures from your phone or whatever, but you just don't have cables coming out of the wall.
Starting point is 00:49:42 Where's your Xbox? It'll go into that box, but now the Xbox doesn't have to be, you know, the HDMI cord doesn't have to run up to the TV where it looks bad. So you can put that thing underneath and then put the Xbox next to it and plug it in. Or your Apple TV or whatever. Let's skip 4CK.
Starting point is 00:50:00 Too hot to handle? Four is, you're not gonna mow your front yard anymore, You're gonna have kind of like a Roomba do it. Can she still write it? I don't know. They're not they're not big enough right now Five was probably the biggest thing. It was like an answer to the deportation situation As people are like, oh, I wonder if white Americans will step up and do these jobs. And we're like, no, robots. Yeah, robots. Five, this was the biggest theme of CES this year.
Starting point is 00:50:32 And it was just smart glasses. And so we've seen this trend in technology where the iPhone was cool because it was an iPod and a phone. Or your watch is now tracking your your heart rate and you can get calls on it They're just trying to maximize everything on you and glasses are the next thing so some cool stuff is Some of them have like hearing aids in them, so if you're hard of hearing, it can boost hearing for you.
Starting point is 00:51:07 Some will transcribe conversations that you're having so you can read along with somebody talking to you. Oh my god. So you can have subtitles for your life. My wife will be so all over the, she loves subtitles on everything. I mean, if I find myself having to understand like a Romani street gang in Ireland or England
Starting point is 00:51:28 or wherever they were, then perhaps. That's the only time it's acceptable. But I like it. I don't think I need it for the show. I like watching videos or movies and TV without subtitles. I didn't come here to read. Right. Wasn't that good?
Starting point is 00:51:40 But she has to have that on everything. Yeah. Every single thing. Yeah, obviously. Really, I hate it on games when you got the graphics on the game, and then you got those graphics. Yeah, they hit it. If you're traveling, it's big for transcription.
Starting point is 00:51:57 But they said that you can get turn-by-turn navigation if you've got your maps on your phone, and it can go up to your glasses and tell you where to turn. Can I make a prediction? Sure. Whatever he says right now, don't listen to it, he'll have these. Oh yeah? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:13 The glasses? Yeah. I can 100% see. I was about to say that would help with the landscaper if you're talking about translation and certain things. You ever have a conversation with someone that you just have to read it into your phone and then show them the phone? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:29 Uh, yeah, I have, but I try to give it my, my college try with Spanish. Yeah. Like, Oh no, I know. Uh, but this to me feels very similar to my apprehension about like VR goggles. And I have not seen those take off in the way that I was told they would. I thought they would too. There's like a decade ago right? Yeah and there's still I know that they've come a long way. But I thought by now I would be coming home at night I would call you up and say hey let's go to the Lakers game. I would be courtside at a Lakers
Starting point is 00:53:04 game I'll have my VR helmet. You have yours. You're at home. But we could actually be sitting next to each other and talking about the game and whatever. Yeah. And then we leave the game. And I'm like, what do you got going on?
Starting point is 00:53:14 And you're like, I don't know. I'm like, well, I'm actually going to see Beetlejuice with Lauren Boebert. And I press a button. And then I'm in a theater getting whacked off by a congresswoman from Colorado. That'd be great. Yeah. I don't think that's in the technology yet. But maybe.
Starting point is 00:53:29 That's cool stuff. Number six, I'm not done unless you want me to be. No, you just gave the sound of like you were done, so then I do. I'm done with the smart glasses. This one is very strange to me. It's a robot powered exoskeleton. And it's not replacing your muscles, it's assisting.
Starting point is 00:53:52 So people, it's targeted towards people that want to hike or run that can't. So it offers up to 80 pounds of strength assistance. So it's a reverse weight training jacket. Kind of. Boy, we're all gonna get so fat. And kind of, but then they're trying to target it and say it makes physically demanding tasks
Starting point is 00:54:15 feel effortless, and they try to, like if you have to do a lot of lifting at work, rather than using your back and becoming decrepit, you can use one of these things to help assist you. I could see that. I also find it interesting that for the beta test here, the model, they had to find a kind of fat model. Like, she's very attractive, but you couldn't just
Starting point is 00:54:36 get like a super fit woman to do this. You also look like a fool. Yeah. But I was trying to think- Can you put one on your wiener? Make this thing work a little better? I was trying to think. Can you put one on your wiener? Make this thing work a little better? I was trying to think. They probably won't consumer level.
Starting point is 00:54:50 I don't know if anyone's going to want to put this on to go on a run or a hike. But if you do have to do some lifting in a warehouse or something and you don't want to put all of that strain on you, then maybe there is a use there. Give it to the military. Well, I mean, I think the, yes, and that's just the, we need just cyborg troops anyways.
Starting point is 00:55:11 Which is kind of where we're headed. Right, so I mean, this is just like the middle ground, which we just have a full robot. It's a technology war then. Yeah. No, that one's interesting, it's hard for me to imagine somebody who is really big being like, well, what if I could just put myself
Starting point is 00:55:27 in this cast and go run? Yeah, it's not. If you want to get in shape, you're probably going to just start walking. It might turn into that, but that was not the demo that we were shown in CES. Someone's going to have one that they have masked, and they're going to run a marathon.
Starting point is 00:55:42 And the girls team. There's going to be a scandal. Yeah, executive order. Number seven, I'll make this super quick, but screens will not just be stagnant anymore. They can stretch, they can help with 3D effects, but they can also get bigger or smaller or move or what have you. What do you mean?
Starting point is 00:56:00 But like your phone or your laptop, it's just, that's what it is. But now that their ability to stretch and move, and yeah. I've seen a phone that bends. Yeah, which I'm not, I don't know. I'm not on board with yet, but it just seems like this is where screen technology is headed. Yeah, and some of these are not just like 2D.
Starting point is 00:56:23 Like they're bending from the corners. Yeah. Yeah. But the same, you saw the tablet. If you want to watch a movie, you can make the screen bigger. If you want to do something smaller and play a game, you can make it smaller. Fail.
Starting point is 00:56:34 Might. It might. Back in my day, we just had two dimensions. Yeah. Number eight, this will also be really quick, but this was too cool to not show you. This company, I'm pretty sure in Japan, made a spoon that can mimic the taste of salt. And so what they're doing is they're getting soup
Starting point is 00:56:57 in this spoon and pushing a button and through some way of electricity makes it taste like it's been salted. Yet you don't have the sodium. Right. I think I've heard of stuff like this, something you can use, like different things you can use to make something taste better without actually altering the food. And so maybe this is where we're headed where you just pretend that it tastes sugary or salty and
Starting point is 00:57:25 it's not and it's better for you? Dude, if they made like a jalapeno ranch or a queso version, I would be the fittest man alive. I would just eat nothing but spinach. So that's the Kirin electric salt spoon. If they could make spinach taste good, you're saying? Well, I eat spinach now because it has no taste. But if I could make everything taste good, you know?
Starting point is 00:57:54 Like, I was trying to explain to Nora last night, we were trying new foods. And I'm like, here's what I can tell you about an avocado. It doesn't taste like anything. She's like, well, then why would anyone eat it? Yeah. She's got a point. I'm like, yeah, that might have been a bad, so I don't know yeah, I disagree with that I don't like avocado. I know you don't that's I could get people not liking guacamole
Starting point is 00:58:13 But to me avocado is just it's just there for thickness or fat. It has texture to just texture one thing yeah, they They put solar panels on the way stuff That only is coming to us from Asia. Yeah, I know. That's why I said it was probably Japan. Extremely Asian invention. They had a bucket hat with solar panels that can charge your phone. They have a cooler with solar panels
Starting point is 00:58:36 that can charge your phone. They had a ton of different sleep headphones where all links with your call map, links with your alarms, you can fall asleep to it You can it can keep you asleep. There was a bunch of sleep headphones options I have a new sleep mask with headphones in it. Okay. There you go. See I wear the big headphones the big Sony headphones of course and The other night I had fallen asleep because I'll turn I don't always turn them on sometimes
Starting point is 00:59:04 I just put them on to just to block out. Yes, the wife over there tosses sure but sometimes I turn them on with the noise canceling so I turn them on and fall asleep and it was like one one or two in the morning, but this really loud voice is like Battery 10% like it tells you when the battery gets low. And I can't, I was online for a half hour trying to find out how to disable this effing thing, I was so mad. People are really scared about blue light now,
Starting point is 00:59:36 so they're now, kinda like your Kindle, they're making cell phones that have that lack of blue light in them for those that are interested. What is that bit? Blue light? Yeah, what's wrong? Well, it's supposed to help, it keeps you up at night. And some think that's how the government controls you.
Starting point is 00:59:54 Boy, talk about asking Nico a question and be like, some are saying this is a bad trade. Some people think this is a... Are you, were you into that? No I recently just saw a video of... Cause you used to... Joe Rogan? No way.
Starting point is 01:00:11 That said that the government bought a patent on blue light and that's why all technology has it now. I don't know. But you used to be really a conspiracy guy right? Yes. Like loose change was... Loose change changed my life. Top five movie. How about chemtrails?
Starting point is 01:00:27 I wasn't big on that one. I was more of the 911 Sandy Hook just What's Sandy head stuff? That's at the elementary school you thought that was fake No, I was just reading things that said it might have been. But at the time you were kind of on board? I'm an idiot 19 year old, yeah. No, that's what I'm saying. So you actually were like, you thought they hired actors?
Starting point is 01:00:54 Yeah, because they were laughing before they went up on stage, or like on camera, which is apparently a method acting thing where you kind of laugh and it resets you into sadness. And then some Facebook group was created the day before the event. They had all these like parking things where it's like FBI parking this way and there were pictures of it the day of the event before the shooting.
Starting point is 01:01:13 I don't know. I don't remember any of it. Some of the kids had appeared in earlier shootings and stuff like that I think maybe. Yeah and. And you thought like it was Hollywood makeup and it was all. Dude, this is a very popular thing how why how could people think that I don't know man like how could that there's a significant portion of
Starting point is 01:01:36 our population it would be easier to do a fake moon landing yeah but that was a long time ago we've come a long way. 60 years later we can fake school shootings like it's nothing. I think the Sandy Hook one got me out of being Conspiracy Guy. Because that one felt bad. Like, alright, they're too young for me to dilute myself for my own personal entertainment. Yeah. Wow. Cost Alex Jones a lot of money.
Starting point is 01:01:59 Yeah, it did. They've got smart water plants now. Or just, it'll water your plant without you having to do it. So if you're on a schedule if you're out of town, which why haven't we done this already? Well, I mean you could turn your sprinklers on to a certain house. Yeah, but like indoor plants that you gotta water. Oh, you have to have Trey come over. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:20 Where does the water come from? Blind Josh, they're making smart canes now with like a speaker and a microphone and a whole bunch of other stuff. But let's skip ahead to the very end. God, that's gonna be a pain in my ass. It's not really a cane. Play that last video. So Delta had their conference at the Sphere in Vegas.
Starting point is 01:02:40 And you can see on screen if you're watching along with us that they are, you're inside the cockpit on a delta on a delta flight um Oh i'm upside down. Yeah, which is a funny week to be doing this But then you know the they would blow air through there like you're you're in a plane Uh, it would rumble a little bit on landing Um, and then i've been to the omni Yeah, it's cool.
Starting point is 01:03:06 Isn't that what it was when we were kids? Yeah. Listened to Kenny Loggins do Highway to the Danger Zone as you're looking over a building. So what's the point of this? It's a simulator? No, it was just a new way to do a conference. But they did have a couple of announcements.
Starting point is 01:03:23 The first, they're trying to launch this new AI assistant on your app, or on their app, where you, I don't know what they're calling it. Alley. But it basically just takes care of the entire reservation for you, so you want to go to Denver on this date, it will book the cheapest or first class ticket there and from, it will arrange rideshare for you

It's what that minions movie. What was that first one? Despicable me. Mm-hmm. That's the that's the whole premise of this. This is all leading us there
Starting point is 01:04:15 Isn't the whole point where the wait is that minions is that the one where society or no? Am I thinking? Yeah, it's not that yeah minions is minions Am I thinking of a different one? Yeah, it's not though. Minions is minions? Am I thinking of a different one with automated Yes It was around the same time But the big, just giant fat guy from the future
Starting point is 01:04:38 because everything is done for him this is what we're leading to This is going to drive me crazy So this is the last thing, and I'm saying it because I'm pretty sure... There's like a mechanical something that was in the garbage dump. You know what I'm talking about, right? Check the chat! You've seen it. I have.
Starting point is 01:04:58 Okay. We'll get it at some point today. Chat says Wall-E. Wall-E! Wall-E. Yeah. Yeah. It's like a cartoon idiocracy kind of. Yeah, minions is, they're minions. Well no, there's the, Despicable Me leads to minions, but I thought maybe, never mind. Got it. So Delta is investing 200 million dollars in Joby, which is an aviation company, in exchange for a home to airport flight service. So rather than getting in your car and parking at the airport
Starting point is 01:05:31 or getting an Uber to take you there, it will have... I usually take elite rides. Me too. It will have an EV toll, electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft, to pick you up from your house and take you straight to the terminal. OK. Which I feel like was made for Dan. That's awesome. It's made for all of us. I know that there's a... Elite Rides will offer that someday. That there's like going to be, Joby is the company,
Starting point is 01:05:57 they're going to have air taxis, they say. I don't know man. So that'll be like back to the future? If you've already decided you're out on a helicopter, which I think I have, I think I've done all my helicoptering. Yeah, I have not, but I don't know that I'm getting in a Joby Aviation electric air taxi. I won't be in version one. No. Like I didn't even get the first iPhone. But I don't think.
Starting point is 01:06:22 I gotta wait. I don't know if DFW is the right audience but if you're LAX or O'Hare in Chicago and traffic is a beating around there maybe. But there was CES 2025 and what's on the horizon. Hey way to go Blake. Same time next year? Yeah, y'all vote on it. Did they update you on the release date of the tail two cameras?

Starting point is 01:08:24 Oh, OK. we're all on the same page I could drive you yep well how'd you get to work today I don't know I had this taxi thing flew me here Fairleys Fairleys.org so I told you guys that my wife had joined a book club but what I found out over the last day or so is fantastic She actually started this book club Started it. Yeah Because she was talking to me this morning. She has a real prop like I go to I get in bed by about nine Maybe yeah, it's that your music playing or mine?
Starting point is 01:09:05 Mine. Oh, okay. I'll stop, I'll default to it. No, I just, I thought you turned it on for your thing. I did. And now I, okay. I didn't like talking over silence. A nine o'clock bedtime for me, or getting bed.
Starting point is 01:09:16 I'm usually asleep by like 9.15, 9.30 at the latest. Absolute latest. She will stay up and read. My wife reads a lot. And I kind of forget that sometimes, because she reads stuff that typically I'm not that interested in, but then she'll tell me about it, and I'm like, oh, maybe the Lisa Marie Presley life story
Starting point is 01:09:35 is interesting. And typically it is. She'll read a book about Princess Diana, or like Dan did, Jessica Simpson, or Pamela Anderson. She's like, this is a crazy story. Has she read the Jessica Simpson? Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's good.
Starting point is 01:09:50 Yeah. So she reads a lot of that type of stuff. And while it's interesting, maybe in tidbits, I've never thought, oh, I want to read that book. And then she'll read what was the Native American Texas book? Is it Empire of the something? Flower Moon?
Starting point is 01:10:06 Flower Moon. Killers of the Flower Moon? Killers? Yeah. Read that and a bunch of books like that were driving through Texas and she won't stop talking to me about how this used to be Comanche land. I'm like, well, tough break times change, Shug.
Starting point is 01:10:20 It was all field. So I also know that she was really into these books about she reads a lot of books about Like the crown right she listens to podcasts like noble blood very popular with the ladies It's just a podcast series. It's almost like Dan Carlin for women because the whole thing is just about stories from The last thousand years of England. A lot of death, a lot of incest, politics, power, that sort of thing. So I remember sometime in the last couple years post like Game of Thrones airing on television she told me that she had gotten into a book series it was kind of like Game of
Starting point is 01:11:03 Thrones and it was called of like Game of Thrones. And it was called A Court of Thorns and Roses. A Court of Thorns and Roses. And I would hear her kind of talk about it, and I'd be like, man, that sounds really weird. Like, there's fairies, maybe dragons. It's a lot of politics, just like Game of Thrones, where it's like this house is fighting with this house,
Starting point is 01:11:23 there's always some sexual interest. But I never really paid that much attention to it I'm like that seems that seems kind of weird and then she would say well we watched Game of Thrones there were fairies there were dragons there was sex that was politics and you know like I said I didn't I never really paid that much attention to it so what I was talking to her this morning about the book club and she's like yeah I started this because I asked another group of friends if they wanted to have one, they said no. So I hit up all the moms from the two schools Nora's been to and I got them together. And she's like, I started it, but the book I submitted the first time around
Starting point is 01:11:59 didn't get selected. I always wonder how that's done. She said there's about 15 of them on the group. Seven or eight of them came to the thing, and only three of them submitted a book, and hers wasn't one of them. She's like, I don't know if I did the best job selling it. Because her next book she's suggesting,
Starting point is 01:12:16 which she's about halfway through now, is the Jewel Thief book. So it's like that you just read. Oh, wow. Yeah. That Sarah had talked about with us, the Dallas Jewel Thief. King of Diam wow. Yeah. That Sarah had talked about with us, the Dallas tour. King of diamonds. So it's like the NFL Hall of Fame procedure.
Starting point is 01:12:30 Yes. Or you have to advocate for your guy. Or trying to get people to watch hot rod at the campground. This sort of thing. My wife is, I should have asked her, but she's recently very excited because she's in two book clubs. And somehow she was able to talk both of them into reading her current.
Starting point is 01:12:49 So now she's reading one book. Why are you trying to just join these things to get out of the work? Right. I don't know. It makes no sense. She's like, oh, this is great. I don't have to read two books now. So she's telling me this morning, she's like, well, I'm going to do the Jewel Thief book
Starting point is 01:13:02 next time because this time the book I suggested didn't get picked You know because it was one of the quarter thorn and roses books, and I didn't sell it that well I'm like what do you mean, and she's like well you know it's fairy smut And I said like no I don't know I'm sorry what is that is that like a Recognized genre and I'm googling it as she's telling me. She's like, oh yeah, it's fairy smut. She's like, it's a whole genre. Like, that's what this is. And we're talking about it and I'm looking it up and.
Starting point is 01:13:33 Fairy smut. Yeah, I'll pull the. So it's just like witches and warlocks? Fairy smut refers to a genre of erotic fiction within fantasy literature, specifically focusing on sexual encounters involving fairies, often characterized by magical elements in a whimsical, otherworldly setting.
Starting point is 01:13:52 Leading fans to commonly label this type of story like A Court of Thorn and Rose's Fairy Smut. So she's talking to me and I'm Googling and I'm like, okay, Fairy Smut, I needed to learn a little more about this. And she starts saying something that I couldn't really understand. It sounded to me like she was saying the avatar. She kept saying like, that's what they do with avatar.
Starting point is 01:14:13 And I was like, what are you saying? How does this have anything to do with avatar? And she goes, no, Akatar. She's like, this is part of the Akatar lore. And I acted like, okay, what is she saying? I'm going to keep just letting this slide. Finally, I was like, what are you saying? She's like, Akatar, a and I acted like, okay, what is she saying? I'm gonna keep just letting this slide. Finally, I was like, what are you saying? She's like, Akatar, A Court of Thorn and Roses.
Starting point is 01:14:30 A court, oh, okay. So, she's like, well, that's what we call it. And now I'm like, okay, this is, this is, I need to peel the onion here. There's four books, and she's read all of them. They were all number one bestsellers. There's another book along this same vein called Fourth Weekend, which is part of a series of books.
Starting point is 01:14:57 She told me that our local bookstore on Grapevine, Maine, Talking Animals, super cool little independent bookstore that they opened at midnight on like a Tuesday night last month and there were 30 or 40 women there for the release of fourth weekend really yeah certainly they had those books earlier why wouldn't know what is it called not for put them on sale it oh maybe it's like a movie release you can't do it until a certain day yeah I think so all right it's gonna a movie release. You can't do it until a certain day. Yeah, I think so It's gonna say they couldn't just sell them at nine. I
Starting point is 01:15:33 Mean, it's just like going to go get maddened like we would do Yeah, but the weekend series you were also kids. I would guess these are not like I wrote the name down wrong 16 year old kids? I guess these are all older ladies. Yeah and they want to go home right away and read the book and come. Is that what this is all about? Let's see if that's what this is all about. So what I did is I went to the audiobook. I went to she I asked her so there's four books in this first one, and I said, which one does the people really start doing it? And she's like, it's in all of them. She's like, but in the second book, the protagonist, who's a female, she actually becomes a fairy.
Starting point is 01:16:19 And now she's in fairy world, fucking with fairies. And I'm like, okay, well this audiobook is 24 hours long, how am I gonna figure this out? Well, the good news is, the horny people of the Akatar community have their own Reddit. And one of the tabs on that Reddit page was kind of sheepishly, like, hey, not for me or anything, but like, has anybody taken the time to like the chapters with all the sex scenes out in these four books like just wondering and pretty quickly there was a reply that had the steamiest chapters in all four books and all the replies were like oh
Starting point is 01:16:56 I can't be the only one who listens to this on the way to work Just a bunch of Susan Boyles is what we're talking about here Wow So I'm like alright. Let's check it out. So I bought the audio book, $20, of A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Moss, the second book in this series. And yeah, let's see if we can dive in here. This is about midway through the book. If you want an Illyrian male's attention, Let's see if we can dive in here. This is about midway through the book. If you want an Illyrian male's attention,
Starting point is 01:17:27 you'd be better off grabbing him by the balls. We're trained to protect our wings at all costs. So we have the male character now who's talking. And she asks the female character who just became a fairy is like, what's up with your wings? Can I touch your wings? We're trained to protect our wings at all costs.
Starting point is 01:17:45 Some males attack first, ask questions later if their wings are touched without invitation. And during sex? The logical thing to follow up with. The question blurted out. Reese's face was nothing but feline amusement as he monitored the mountains. During sex, an Illyrian male can find completion
Starting point is 01:18:07 just by having someone touch his wings in the right spot. Oh, yeah. We're talking about a male G-spot on the wings. Why did this detail need to be added? Presumably, the male has a penis. But we needed to make sure that you knew, hey, there's a way a woman can get to him here through his wings his weakness my blood thrummed dangerous territory more lethal than the drop below have you found that to be true
Starting point is 01:18:39 his eyes stripped me bare I've never allowed anyone to see or touch my wings during sex. It makes you vulnerable in a way that I'm not comfortable with. Too bad, I said. So we're talking now, that's a thumb in the butt. Yeah. That's a thumb in the butt. I got to be real comfortable with you. I do, yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:02 It can get me going. Yeah. But I've never done it because I don't. That puts me in a weird place. So as I'm 2 and 1 half hours into my sleep cycle and three hours from. Let's go index finger. Go ahead, sorry.
Starting point is 01:19:15 You probably start there. Yeah, I've never had a thumb. I don't know why I use thumb. It's 1230 at night. I'm three hours into sleep and three hours away from getting up. And she's just over there reading about thousands of pages about how the wing can make you jizz.
Starting point is 01:19:34 So the story is it's a normal human who was transformed into a fairy? Yeah, so I asked the question. I'm like, well, if it happened in the second book, are you saying you read the whole first book? This would be like if I were a question. I'm like well if it happened in the second book Are you saying you read the whole first book? This would be like if I were watching heat and like Midway through the movie. They're like Al Pacino's a minotaur So it was a real book before and then she tried to start explaining it to me
Starting point is 01:19:56 And it felt exactly like someone trying to explain Game of Thrones, and I was like is a fairy tiny no No, so you could be a big fairy. I think they're human sized. A human sized fairy? Titties and everything. Does she have like a wand? No. She has wings though?
Starting point is 01:20:13 No, you're, yes. I think you're thinking of like the tooth fairy. But there's like an entire mythology behind fairy folk. Oh, OK. I'm learning that too. Yeah. Let's keep going. So she's like with this male fairy,
Starting point is 01:20:29 and she's kind of like his concubine now. I'm not sure. But this is all from one. But male fairies like lady fairies. Yeah, I think so. Yeah, it's not a, it's not a. Male fairies. Yeah, yeah, it's not a slur.
Starting point is 01:20:44 Yeah. The High Lord's whore. Wait, wait, wait, what. It's not a slur. Yeah. The High Lord's whore. Wait, wait, wait, what? That's what she is now. The High Lord's whore. She's the High Lord's whore. Who I become under the mountain. Who the world expected me to be.
Starting point is 01:20:51 The dangerous new pet that Moor's father would now seek to feel out. I don't know what any of that means, but. Reese's hand slid along my bare waist. The other running down my exposed thigh. Cold. His head was cold. His eyes were red. His eyes were red.
Starting point is 01:20:59 His eyes were red. His eyes were red. His eyes were red. His eyes were red. His eyes were red. His eyes were red. His eyes were red. His eyes were red. His eyes were red. His eyes were red. I don't know what any of that means, but... Reese's hand slid along my bare waist, the other running down my exposed thigh. Cold. His hands were so cold I almost yelped. He must have felt the silent flinch. A heartbeat later, his hands had warmed.
Starting point is 01:21:18 His thumb, curving around the inside of my thigh, gave slow long stroke as if to say sorry I mean again part of the weirdness here is that my wife my wife has spent a lot of time with this stuff like she has another life basically she watches a lot of TV shows I know nothing about and she reads thousand page books in Four days and she's pitching this to book club. Yeah Yeah, hey, I thought this one was so good Yeah, and then and then upset that they didn't take it and thought she needs to do a better job next time Yeah, but the result was I got to hear the pitch of this book and she's like, well, you know
Starting point is 01:22:02 I told him it was like fairy smud and there's like dragon there's a lot of fairies having sex, and there's kind of a female empowerment type thing. And then she said, someone in the book club texted her, and was like, hey, I haven't started the official book yet, because I started reading your fairy smut book, and I can't put it down.
Starting point is 01:22:17 So wait, it's female empowerment because she wants to be the High Lord's whore? I gather that there's some level of taking back your own sexuality. And it's like people are calling her a whore, and she's like, yeah, well, I'm doing what I want to do. You can't place expectations on me. This is great for your ability to use porn as well, though.
Starting point is 01:22:40 One of the first things I thought of was like, dude, if this were, women would be grossed out if men were listening to literal, specific descriptions of sex. If you were listening to a guy be like, and then she asked me if I could jizz all about her face and mouth. Well yeah, well I don't want to hear that.
Starting point is 01:23:01 I just want to see. Well I know, but people would think that was gross. I know, but that. Women would be like, you're sick. Women are are but that's the part of sex that they want and enjoy the emotional the foreplay I don't know if there's a An analogy for like what we want out of sex in a book. Do you watch foreplay a little bit? No, I'll watch a little foreplay on you, but I'm saying as far as a book. I don't know. I don't want to hear about
Starting point is 01:23:26 What I'm in for sex no, it's just a video of finishing moves. It's different, but it should be treated the same compilation Maybe sure there's the compilation usually is what they let's hear more. I opened my shield enough to let him in oh yeah what? His voice floated into my mind let him in. Oh yeah. What? His voice floated into my mind. Like is she just tripping over there the whole time she's reading this? Caressing that wall of ebony adamant. A small sliver cracked just for me. And I said into it, you are good, Reese. You are kind. This mask does not scare me. I see you beneath it.
Starting point is 01:24:07 Mysterious. His hands tightened on me and his eyes held mine as he leaned forward to brush his mouth against my cheek. It was answer enough and... and unleashing. I leaned a bit more against him, my legs widening ever so slightly. Oh my god why do you stop i said into his mind into him and near silent growl reverberated against me
Starting point is 01:24:35 he's took my ribs again in time to the beat of the music is thumb rising nearly high enough to graze the underside of my breast who and what is this guy? I think he's a fairy too. OK. Yeah, but he's like a hunky fairy. Last one.
Starting point is 01:24:53 His hands slid to my upper thigh, fingers curving in, I ground against him, trying to shift those hands away from what he'd learned to find him hard against my backside. Oh, I like that. What was it, he was hard against her backside? To find him hard against my backside. Yeah, that's the good stuff. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:14 Every thought eddied from my head. Only a thrill of power remained as I writhed along that impressive length. Jeez. along that impressive length. Jeez. My point on it being good for her catching you with certain porn or whatever is like because she'll catch you and be like, wait, you want to have sex with the babysitter? And you're like, wait, no, it's fantasy.
Starting point is 01:25:40 It's all fantasy here. Like could you imagine if you were driving the babysitter home and she's like, hey, and you'd be like, oh my god, whoa, I don't know. This is a, nuh-uh. One of the most uncomfortable drives I've ever had was a 10 minute drive taking the babysitter home. Just me and some 16-year-old girl in the car.
Starting point is 01:26:02 Yeah, I imagine Uber's probably taking care of that. Although I don't know how many people let their 16-year-old get in there. But you I imagine Uber's probably taking care of that. Although I don't know how many people let their 16 year old get in there, but you're right. But I drove a girl home. If you were accused of that, then you're like, okay, are you trying to have sex with an animal? But, yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:13 A fairy? Does she know you bought the audio book? Oh yeah, she was listening like this morning as I was like, whoa. She's like, okay. She wants you to release your inner fairy. Yeah, maybe she wants, because then your lady might say, do you want me to dress up as a girl, Scott? I mean, is this where we're going here?
Starting point is 01:26:36 Yeah. Does she want you to put on some wings? Maybe a crown. I mean, I would. I would, as long as like on the flip side of that, she'll dress up as, you know, Sarah Palin or whatever. Yeah. Cameron Brink. Yeah. Yeah, WNBA outfit. So anyways, Akatar.
Starting point is 01:26:58 It's apparently extremely popular. Which stands for? A Court of Thorn and Roses. And I do think we'll probably get a significant amount of feedback on this. Really? Yeah, and it apparently had been picked up by Hulu, but after a couple years the writer, the author of the books pulled it from Hulu. They didn't get anything done and there's another shot at it in summer 2025. But there's four books at it in summer 2025. But there's four books, and they sold a lot,

No, no, frankly, you got to call them. But past that it's basically telepathy. They'll know what you need. Yeah. So a variety of viewer mails this Thursday. I start with one from a lady named Jordan, which is hot when it's a lady's name, I think. I think so, yeah. Greetings cervix surveyor. I hope this finds you three well. I'd like to present to Jake the possible baby names my fiance and I have picked out. I picked the girl names, he picked the boy names. Their names are very telling on our mismatched personalities. We're both at an impasse on which two to select for our first child.
Starting point is 01:31:06 Let's go. We will be getting to it. Hell, yeah, bro. The day after our wedding. So we figured we start picking now. Please rate these on a scale from one to 10. We both have strong opinions on the names we selected. OK.
Starting point is 01:31:23 Boy names. Titus. 2. Ragnar. 0. Sabin. 1. Wow. Dang. Do you disagree? No, but don't you want to give them like one okay grade? Those are all terrible. I don't think Sabin's that bad. I thought Sabin's kind of the cooler one. Sabin's at least a four. I can't do Titus because of Titus and Taint. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:31:56 Or what was that guy who had Christopher Titus? Fox gave him a show for a minute. Kind of had like a Biff energy to him. The comedian. He's not Titus and Tate? No. That's a different? No, Mark Titus.
Starting point is 01:32:10 Mark Titus, I've tried to tell you this a million times and you would not listen to me. Do you remember how TC when he was an intern had two shirts and one of them said Club Trill? Yeah. Club Trill was for the trillionaires because Mark Titus was a Allah, I don't know, Gabe. Mark Titus got really into like blogging and podcasting
Starting point is 01:32:32 when he played for Ohio State and he called him like his blog or his shows Club Trillionaire because his stat line was always one minute and then nine zeros. It's a good bit. Mark Titus is actually good. You don't remember Christopher Titus? I feel like I know that name. This guy. Kind of.
Starting point is 01:32:57 I don't know. You don't recognize that comedian? Anyways, that's what I think of. Both those are bad. And with Sabin, what are you going to do? You're going to like the coach of, both those are bad. And with Sabin, what are you gonna do? You're gonna, like the coach? Every time? That's bad.
Starting point is 01:33:09 Girl names. Let's try again. Elizabeth. That's like a five. Regina. That's a six. Reveley. That's a zero.
Starting point is 01:33:22 Regina's a cool name. Yeah, but guys are gonna be calling her Regina. That's true too. That's a cool name. Yeah, but guys are going to be calling her Regina. That's true, too. That's a good point. PS from Jordan. I'm trying to have a dumb zone sponsor heavy wedding. I already plan on using Elite Rides to take the wedding party to and fro.
Starting point is 01:33:40 Nice. A pack of Lucy's will be lifted to all the groomsmen. Terrific. Can't go wrong Give me eight Mickey's our shared property is under own Wells protection. Yes, if only a Frankel and Frankel did prenups No, we do not partake in the weed any other plugs you can suggest would be Liddy Knock Fico go stars from Jordan.
Starting point is 01:34:05 You could have a little Lone Star at your wedding if you wanted. Did you send her a pic for the wall? I don't think she did send a pic for the wall. But interesting that that's the thing that Blake is thinking about. I mean, whoever. I mean, you know, we could start this wall, whatever. I also got an email from a Jordan who said that he's played, he's one of the select few that's played words with Dan, words with friends with Dan over the years, and he says that
Starting point is 01:34:35 he will let Dan win depending on how he kind of thinks Dan's life is going. So like during the trial he would let win Dan, he would let Dan win all the time. He said I would intentionally lose especially during the hard times. Oh that's great. What a guy. That's very nice. He also said, Wendy's just on vacation. Get a grip Dan-o. Who's on vacation? Wendy-e. Just the other day when you were talking about not seeing Wendy-e for a couple days. I don't know man. I think she's old. Yeah, I agree with you.
Starting point is 01:35:07 Jordan has no info on Wendy's vitals. He just knows he let you win a few times because he's read the news. Well, that's very nice, I appreciate that. I need that. I will take pity everything. By the way, if you're like, oh no, I don't want her to sleep with me
Starting point is 01:35:23 because she just feels sorry for, no I do. Yeah. I, oh no, I don't want her to sleep with me because she's just feels sorry for no I do. Yeah, I want I want the I want a pity. I want pity sex. I want pity Money, I don't have any shame. Sure. Yeah, if you're yeah Let's see Well, what's the sitch uncle bitch ditch I Love the uncle Hotmail bit, but some of the nicknames are getting stale and repetitive. I've been keeping a list of names in my notes, but I never had a reason to write in. Nice.
Starting point is 01:35:55 So I figured I'd go ahead and send them along to y'all in hopes of stimulating the Uncle Hotmail economy. Writer's Room. For your review. Cream Pie Samurai. Yeah. Oh yeah. This guy's cooking with gas. Meat acceptor chief inspector. Hot pocket hog rocket. Stink slit wink twit. The Stinkslit Winktwit, the Luca of the Trout Bazooka, and oh, the Caitlin Clark of Cuttin's Shark and the Bronny James of Slurpin' Dames. That is Mor Brunig from Sam Sturm.
Starting point is 01:36:43 No relation to Bob. Wait, did he actually, never mind. Did he actually have an email? No, the email was the fact that he's been saving these names hoping that he would have an email to write some day. And he just never got one. He still has not thought of a reason to write us. And then he thought, wait, having all these names would be the reason to write us. Derrick weighs in regarding lobster that we talked about As far as the pores in lobster used to be a pory food. Oh, okay He said one thing that happened was like the pores developed a taste for them on the East Coast
Starting point is 01:37:17 but then a lot of the pores moved inland to America in the West and They became more of a delicacy when they had to start being shipped. Because it would make sense that the migration to the West was, you know, it's not like you're leaving your great life in the East to move West. You're out there hoping to hit it big.
Starting point is 01:37:40 Build a life on the frontier. So they, lobsters having to be shipped is what made them like a delicacyacy It was not because initially they were something that people were just like this is great Okay, I thought it was tariffs made them cost more It's a little comedy that's a little topical right there political economic humor humor. Dustin follows up when we were talking about roommates, like you don't want to have a roommate when you're 70 or 80. Oh, because the old guy that got killed or that killed his old roommate. Yeah, 81 year old killed his 59 year old roommate here locally after he was being annoying. He says, I happen to have
Starting point is 01:38:19 through work some friends who are gay. And four of the guys, all late 30s, early 40s, lived in a house together for a few years. It seemed awesome because they were all best friends anyway. So they lived together, they'd split bills, rotate making dinner, etc. But they all still had their own private room to hide out in if they wanted. I believe they were all similarly clean, didn't f with each other's food, etc. And I don't think anyone was hooking up. But maybe they had before so it's not off the table. That just seemed like an didn't f with each other's food, etc. And I don't think anyone was hooking up. But maybe they had before so it's not off the table.
Starting point is 01:38:48 That just seemed like an awesome idea if you were old and lived alone. Just move in with a few of your buddies. Keep costs low, watch stuff on the TV together, or play video games when you're bored. In a way it makes me hope I would outlive my wife. But I probably won't. I thought about this email a lot. That's from Dustin Keller, our business lawyer. If you need a business lawyer, hit us up. May we suggest Dustin Keller.
Starting point is 01:39:11 I thought a lot about this. It's a very interesting idea, and I think this is good for society and for us to move culturally towards this direction. We've talked about having a separate bedroom than your wife, even a separate residence, but what I think you need is It's tougher if your wife is still alive, but if we just normalize the idea that when you're 60, 65, let's say 65 You just move in with your bros. You're still married and just move in with your bros. You're still married and maybe you still keep that house. I don't know. But an old folks home but it's basically your your your homies. And there what would help is if we like made a TV show about this. You
Starting point is 01:39:58 know with like Tim Allen and John Goodman or something. So get a lot of older actors who we were really into. Yeah and have them just hanging out. Kevin James lives with Ray Romano. Yeah and just normalize it and just be like this is the the because what you have to do you have to have it accepted by the mental health people. Is that what the odd couple was? Like Walter Mathau. But I mean, was that just two old guys that kind of lived together? That's the way I remember it, but I also remember them hating each other, right?
Starting point is 01:40:31 I'm saying that the guys I went on the ski trip with this last weekend, in three decades, we just get a house to get. You could live with them? Yeah, for sure. And I wonder if it's like a guys weekend where you will just develop your roles as well. Like I have, we have here. Definitely.
Starting point is 01:40:50 Like I do the dishes, like at the guys weekend when I was hanging out with you guys I did the dishes, I'll do the dishes here at home. I make the fire. Yeah. She bitches and complains about everything. And accuses me of different things. But you wouldn't have big fights like, hey, we're getting food out tonight. It would be easy.
Starting point is 01:41:10 Oh, yeah. You could take trips. And if you just wanted to get food and you didn't ask anyone and you just did it on your own, nobody would be mad. But you won't be lonely. What do they say about Alzheimer's and how people deteriorate in old age? It's not being stimulated. It's being alone if you just hang out with your with your fellas When you're old, I think this is this would be way better for society
Starting point is 01:41:33 Way better get a stripper every now and then Sounds kick-ass This is from Marcus who says Blake Yes, Marcus. No one needs an episode for every segment. That's why you have in-episode markers. Please stop. Don't need an episode for every segment.
Starting point is 01:41:55 So I guess this is regarding the sub stack. You will cut up things in the different segments. It says here, dumb zone a website for subscribers, not only Marcus. Got it. cut up things in the different segments? Says here, DumbZone a website for subscribers, not only Marcus. Got it, okay. So I'll keep doing stuff that I need to do for these subscribers and potential subscribers
Starting point is 01:42:14 and Marcus can kiss my ass. How about that? Oh wow. I got another one that indicated we don't need so many emails. Yeah, I know. We're training new interns and we had a miscommunication, so I'm hoping it only happens once,
Starting point is 01:42:30 but would love a little levity here, fellas. That's a wild thing to me, and I know they're just busting balls, but that is a wild thing to me to fire off an email about. Being upset getting too many emails? Yeah, I mean, you get 60 of them, you just delete all of them every day, whether it's from a shirt company or from a podcast.
Starting point is 01:42:50 It never, ever would occur to me to be like, someone needs to know about my displeasure here. Dude, we should do this experiment. Like from midnight to midnight, or whatever, any 24 hour period. Maybe starting now, delete all your email in your regular email inbox and then go back in 24 hours and how many do you have? Because I spend half my day just kind of looking at the junk mail and just making sure there's
Starting point is 01:43:17 nothing in there I need and then I delete it. Like do you get a ton of just, of course you do. You sign up for everything. So I have two things, really a three pronged approach. The one is just easy, just whack a bowl, just delete them. Another thing I'll do is I created a coupons and deals folder and tag in my Gmail so when I get something that I'm like, you know what, I might actually do that. I forward it or I move it over to the coupons and deals and any time I'm going to buy something I go in there and search like shirt.
Starting point is 01:43:45 Deal man is nodding. Yeah, cause sometimes it is, a pizza, I'll save all the pizza ones in there and I'll just search pizza and see like what's most recent. Like the codes? Codes, deals, offers, whatever. And if all of a sudden she's like,
Starting point is 01:43:57 I got book club tonight, you go to the Papa. Yeah, so I do that. And then the other one is just when I'm up for it is a little bit of an unsub binge So I do that. And then the other one is just when I'm up for it is a little bit of an unsub binge. I do that every day. It's pretty satisfying at first, but then you realize you can never out beat.
Starting point is 01:44:13 You can never keep them. No, because they keep changing. You can't stay ahead of them. You unsubscribe at the bottom of the email? I always thought if you did that, you're showing them how I went through this whole email and I will take action and I will press a button and they'll send you even more. I think there's a law though.
Starting point is 01:44:29 My process is I go to the bottom, unsubscribe that way. Apple has a thing where it'll unsubscribe for you, which is send them an email, which I don't think works. But then I will block the incoming email address and also block the reply to email address. Wow. And I still get them. I still get Trump and Russian jets seen over Ukraine every day.
Starting point is 01:44:53 Can't escape it. Did I ever tell you guys, did we ever read the email from the cop about the flock cameras? We did, right? That sounds familiar. We found, we had a guy, there was a story about a guy who got arrested
Starting point is 01:45:05 he was an inmate escapee at Bucky's and he got popped by by these flock cameras and a listener explained to us we have a very communicative cop listener and He emailed us about Blake in his Bandit situation the other day Cop for 20 years he said firstly it matters where you are If you're on the highway in a busy cityIS cop car, you have nothing to worry about They are going from point a to point B because I will see that and in my head when I was growing up I was like you're out of jurisdiction. Yeah jurisdiction. We're the same out here and you know Hood County You don't have to respect your
Starting point is 01:46:03 Your Plano squad car apparently that's true. Good rule of thumb nine over most cops use 10 as their threshold for making a stop. Troopers are a different story their job is to patrol the highway if you pass a trooper and they're doing the speed limit you're probably going to get pulled over you're probably going to get a ticket. They take that personally So if you're doing five over and pass a trooper get ready to have your day ruined Which is what my bandit guy did they got pulled over immediately? He says he has some tips here follow a good ways behind the bandit a quarter mile if you can swing it His leaves are Blake's Avril Lavigne sex tape crocs. Were you wearing crocs?
Starting point is 01:46:48 Did we talk? No, we just explained that crocs might be good for that kind of thing. Because you're standing there. Easily wipeable. But I did fall for an Avril Lavigne torrent for sure. Oh yeah. Yeah. That's one of his leaders. The other one is Jody Dean bombing Sarajevo and Jake watching pornos where guys have their shirts on. So that's a... Are we ready? Can I read my Mavs ones? That's a good email. I got a couple Mavs ones.
Starting point is 01:47:15 I just have two submissions for different lists. The first Matt Grim says for an anchored phrase, Beck. Beck and Cole. Yeah, when else are you hearing Beck? Dude, Matt Grim sent us a video somebody did of, if you drop an ant off of a house, does it survive? I need to report back on that. And it does.
Starting point is 01:47:35 Well, yeah, I should do that in gummy thoughts. And Eric asks if Kim Mulkey is a potential Roseanne. Yes. Yeah, she might be one of our first pretty fit Rote Roseanne to potential Roseanne's had a tough conversation the other day with a family member who At one point I may or may not have lived inside of oh no who very seriously approached me
Starting point is 01:48:07 lived inside of who very seriously approached me with a full heart and said am I a Roseanne? Oh no! That's the end of that story. Oh no. I said no. But I think what I heard was not yet. Potential. You know, if you watch the kids a little more. It does wear on people. Can I do my Mavs ones?
Starting point is 01:48:43 Yeah, go ahead. Everybody's feeling great. Yeah, this guy says dearest front bottom fondlers. Thanks for your coverage of the Luketh, the Bakkel, blah blah blah. I'm also working out how to move on like you guys. It occurred to me just recently the surging popularity of last year's League of the Year has come at an opportune time. I know I don't need to tell you wing heads that our girls have the number one pick in the upcoming draft. It is April 14th.
Starting point is 01:49:16 Less than a week after we give Luca a proper goodbye, we get to welcome Paige Bukers. I did know Paige Bukers was coming. Now who is that? Yukon gosh is she great yeah, it was she just broke One of the two people I referenced earlier is the only two super dirt and trusty. She was she just broke a record She was one of those high school kids that you saw on Instagram and Twitter just destroying people as a sophomore And you've seen her rise come in now. She's at Yukon Yeah, she's great. she's a white with swag here's what I'm confused by is so does the draft happen dirt well the season is still happening they have two seasons a
Starting point is 01:49:55 year they have to have three drafts there's always a draft yeah two seasons and two drafts a year it makes sense sense. By the way, I like the brainstorming session here, but I think we should be called wing nuts. Okay. That's better than wing heads for sure. Looking forward to the wings content from the podcast that brought us, quote, I can maybe name all the WNBA coaches
Starting point is 01:50:20 if I say them in alphabetical order in my head. You jerk. Never punt from Robert. And hey, fellows at the dumb zone. My name is Brian. I'm a fellow Dallas sports fan reaching out. I want to share how my buddy and I are processing the Luka trade using humor instead of anger.
Starting point is 01:50:38 We are pitching Nico Harrison urinal cakes to bars, restaurants, and other establishments across DFW to allow MavsRands to express their true feelings about the trade in the most satisfying way possible." So he is selling, I have a picture of this, that is urinal cakes is something that they put in the stand-up urinals. And I guess it is to make it not smell terrible? Yeah. But it's something that, so it's a little, it looks like a hockey puck. And it is made of some kind of a thing that has a good smell
Starting point is 01:51:26 And over time it will just wear away And you end up kind of peeing on it and like maybe even when it's breaking down a little bit You can you'll move it around you'll chip across a little like chip it down a little bit, but you're edging anyway This is from Brian and joining us now. Oh No a little bit. Like you're edging. Anyway, this is from Brian and joining us now... Oh no. Why did you think I asked you twice if we're ready for the Mavs emails? Oh, I thought... Well, how was I telegraphing this? Didn't you think it was weird I was doing that? Well, I would have thought it was weird if I didn't know exactly what you were doing, in which case I was like, yes, you must already have the guy lined up. Yeah, I was like.
Starting point is 01:52:05 There's a Mavs one before the second Mavs one, the way we had talked about it was, I'll do one before the phone call. And I said, can I read my Mavs emails? And then you did that one, I knew the next one was gonna be the urinal cake one. Yeah, I was just blowing through stop signs. And yeah, then I even told Clay, like,
Starting point is 01:52:19 hey, put up the picture, cause now you know for sure it's the urinal cake guy. I wanna get that vape clean on microphone because people like hearing the vape. I don't do it whenever we're in segment. I don't know, I've just heard from people who their leader is Blake's or Jake's vape hit. IJB may be streaming, but I don't...
Starting point is 01:52:42 Anyways, is Cake Guy there? Yeah, he's here I thought he would get to hear me read the email and just be a setup I'm sorry you missed the setup joining us now is Brian hey everybody how's it going so bro so what's your bit Brian well I guess now that I'm officially known as the urinal cake guy, I'm basically just a Mavs fan that is pissed about the Aluka trade and since the organization is doing everything in their power to
Starting point is 01:53:20 silence our displeasure with the trade, I figured this would be a good way to hopefully voice our displeasure in a way that is, how do I say it, pleasing. So what I've done is I've ordered a bunch of these journal cakes and I'm trying to pitch it to local businesses, bars, restaurants, etc. In hopes that maybe one of them is a huge Maps fan, sees the humor in it, and orders a couple. I'm not out here trying to make any money. Have you even sold any?
Starting point is 01:53:58 So not yet. Oh, okay. I was looking for that elusive first customer but we've had some interest some back and forth with back and forth with some owners so hoping that you know one of them will bite. Okay I'd like to get one. Okay. I don't know can you you can't just put him in the toilet though. We don't have a urinal here. You guys don't have a urinal? Oh we have a urinal at Fox 4. We do. We'll take one there. I'm sure they'd let us. Yeah maybe we can hook up with you next week. We'll meet you downtown. Yeah yeah okay. Maybe you could get on
Starting point is 01:54:33 Shark Tank. All our cubes isn't on there anymore. That's true. Well you know what we'll put your form, your link, in our show notes today and see if anybody bites on that. But Brian here had the idea of, so yeah, it's got Nico Harrison's face. You need it at your company. So. Your place of employment. Or you could just put them in random places across the metropole. Okay, so.
Starting point is 01:54:59 That's not a bad idea. We had a. No, I actually. Yeah, just drop. I have some further ideas about that. Go ahead. Well, I know that Jake might may or may not be organizing something for a future math game, but you know, if you were to do something, you know,
Starting point is 01:55:18 and these products don't sell, then maybe they could be used for something like that. Well, take them into the arena and put them in the urinals there. Tape it to your leg. Absolutely. That's basically the idea. I think it'd be great to go into the 300 section and where I guess the true fans are.
Starting point is 01:55:36 And during halftime or intermission, everybody obviously goes to the bathrooms. You've been to a mass game before. Just just seeing that I can just imagine that blowing up so got to be careful when you're taking the picture of it now I don't want to yeah I don't want to tape it to my leg I think they might find that can I just shove it up my bottom I would rather do that you know what let me just test it now. Yeah. Let's just see. On the stream. So in college, our bit was like, do you ever play with urinal cakes? I have not.
Starting point is 01:56:15 Okay, so now urinal cakes are the most disgusting thing ever, right? They've been peed on by hundreds of dudes. So we would get a paper towel. You know, it's a little cold, living up there in Ohio, get a paper towel, take a urinal cake, come back from the bathroom and slide it in your buddy's coat pocket. And like it might be like four days, it might be later that night, but he pulled this thing out, he'd be holding it in his bare hand and he'd go, what is it? Oh my God!
Starting point is 01:56:50 And then he'd throw it on the ground and run to the bathroom to wash his hand and it's a real fun game. Sounds like it. Yeah. So, just seeing your urinal cake bit brought joy to my heart. Just like Luca used to Brian yeah you know I didn't do that when I went to college but you know it sounds hilarious so yeah it's a good try it now try it in your 30s try it in your 40s. Hey sorry about Blake Brian
Starting point is 01:57:21 thanks man. Sorry Brian. Yeah we had a real big setup for you and everything expected to have you on the phone and i said all i forgot you're doing it today in brian yeah we had a whole thing set up for you then anyway i think that thanks for joining us and uh... go i was gonna say go mads go
Starting point is 01:57:40 i don't want to go let go lucca i just want to be happy in the end. Exactly. Alright, thanks dude. Alright, thanks for having me fellas. There's Brian. We'll put the link in the show notes. Can I do my one Mavs email?
Starting point is 01:57:57 You can do a thousand Mavs emails. This comes to us, I'm not gonna read the whole thing, but this comes to us from Adam. Adam actually once participated in the Bad Radio Show 4000 trivia, which was going great. And we had some great questions and great listeners until TC and I made the final question, what
Starting point is 01:58:13 was the name of Bill Walton's friend who used to run a Super Salad? And then we realized that only the two of us remembered that. So you were in on that? Yeah, I wrote the game. Yeah, and it was going great. TC and I were like, this is awesome. Everybody's getting these deep cuts.
Starting point is 01:58:28 Wait. It's a good friend of mine. He wrote more than most. Give me a hint. Both his first and last names start with the same letter. And it's a T. Tim Taft. Timmy Taft.
Starting point is 01:58:41 Timmy Timmy Taft Taft. But Adam was part of that. He's a very very very smart dude. He writes very smart emails. He's kind of got a little bit of a different take on how to get at the Adelsons. Where he lays out where all their money comes from. Most of which is from casinos in Macau. Speaking of TC.
Starting point is 01:59:03 Those casino licenses exist by the grace of the Chinese government and could be pulled at any time. So anything that ruffles the feathers of the Chinese Xi government, they would like to avoid. So he's proposing, we need to convince as many MFFLs as possible to avoid the team's BS of we don't accept disparaging comments. Start showing up to Mavs games with the independent republic of Taiwan flag as our form of protest.
Starting point is 01:59:31 This other one here is just a free Tibet flag. That's some deep stuff. That you can buy. Do you remember when Darrell Mori got in trouble? And if you wore a Hong Kong flag or something during an NBA game, they would kick you out. I didn't realize that. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 01:59:49 That's incredible. That was a big thing back then. So he's proposing things like posters that say, Miriam hates Luca and loves a free Tibet. This will set off a political firestorm when they have to start defending China to their MAGA brethren. Let's find out how much they really want to be in the spotlight and own an NBA team.
Starting point is 02:00:14 I just don't know that we're ever going to have Tim Kalashaw asking Jason Kidd about Tibet or Uyghur rights, even if the signs show up in the games. I don't think so. It's probably not happening. I have two more. But it is a nice reminder of who we're run by. Goes deep, very deep. Well, it's kind of, to me, it's like, we don't really care what they do.
Starting point is 02:00:42 We do, but we don't. I had accepted it. Remember the Chick-fil-A guy who owns Chick-fil-A? A lot of people are against him and he's real anti-gay and all this stuff. It's a good sandwich. And my daughter is the biggest activist, well, not the biggest, but much more of an activist than most kids, I think her age. She wants to protest gun violence.
Starting point is 02:01:04 She'll walk out of school, all that kind of stuff. And very pro LGBT, all the things that you don't even know what they are, the question mark, she's into that. But she'll eat Chick-fil-A, she's like, look, it's just too good. Yeah, it's great. And that's the thing about Luca and the Mavs and like,
Starting point is 02:01:23 look I get sad. I don't really care what they do. Sad when I see, and that's the thing about Luca and the Mavs and like look I get sad. I don't really care what they do Sad when I see you know the images from from the Gaza Strip But then I hear like the Mike Breen double bang on a Luca 3. Yeah Plus I want to go to that new resort. No that's gonna be great Two quickies this one Regarding the Super Bowl MVP from Ashley, who writes, in my opinion, it should have been Saquon or Cooper de Jean. If you add their jersey numbers, 26 plus 33, you get Super Bowl 59.
Starting point is 02:02:01 Then she says, I would love to hear your thoughts on Jameis Winston. He was all over Twitter with his broadcast for Fox. And I have wanted to talk about Jamus for a while, only because I find this a fascinating transformation in the past few years. He kind of went from really underperforming, overhyped. I don't know, he almost went from a bust to like he's like the darling of the NFL these days. He's the clown prince of football. Yeah. He's real
Starting point is 02:02:34 like, I know TV networks are gonna fall all over themselves to get themselves a little jamous after his retirement. You can only become that once you have no expectations. You can only become like the fun bit guy whenever a franchise is not tying their hopes to you. Because if you are, then people will be like, what are you doing? Where's, you throw a football through a tire. But if nobody really expects you to turn the franchise around, then you could be out in New Orleans for a week
Starting point is 02:03:03 doing all the bits you want. Cause now he does the EDW. The Browns fans loved him. I mean, he wasn't Deshaun Watson, too, so that helped. I'm going to give you a couple of gummy thoughts, which are, of course, brought to you by Early Bird CBD. Yeah. EarlyBirdCBD.com.

Starting point is 02:04:17 intimated this before but I really wish that there was a way and maybe this will show up at Blake's CES 26 or something. You know how you can do an in-body test, and it'll give you your bone density, and your body fat, and all that stuff? Yeah, they had that. You can hold, there's one for at home now. No, I had one, it's a spit test,
Starting point is 02:04:41 and it can tell you how stressed you are. That's crazy, but that's kinda what I'm about to talk about. I believe that there has to be a way, even though everyone experiences pain and sensation differently, I believe there has to be a way in my lifetime where you can just touch something, hold something, they put something on you and it actually spits out
Starting point is 02:05:03 like what level of pain are you in? Because I get so annoyed when people say, oh I got a high pain tolerance. How do you know? You have no idea how this feels to someone else. That's just something people, and then TC and I were talking about this the other day with like your therapist or your counselor,
Starting point is 02:05:19 but it applies to any doctor when they're like, look at this thing right here and show me where your pain is. You have smiling pain? Yeah, the one to five or one to 10. It's insane. I think I've recently seen a comedian do a bit on this, too, that if you're at the doctor and you tell them your pain's a five,
Starting point is 02:05:40 they're not going to give you the medicine you want. So you have to kind of lie, but you have to walk that line, too. Yeah. It's the same thing with filling out forms at the Hab. You learn people will be like, oh, don't put that. If you want to go home, don't put that. Your insurance will pay for this if they see this,
Starting point is 02:05:57 but they won't if they see this. But my thing is, right now, I think I have a slight groin strain. And it hurts. But in my head, I'm like, I bet people just work out through this. But how much does this actually hurt? I wanna be able to just grab a thing with both hands,
Starting point is 02:06:14 put my palms on it, and it'd be like, your groin is a 32% pain. Something like that. I want that, and I think we're gonna have that. Like a full quantified thing where you're like, hey oh my foot that's like a maybe we take the day off on the foot. That's a 40% today. I do wonder if we'll ever have the next-gen stats for your whole body is what I'm saying. Well yeah but can you walk through like the Mavs metal detector or whatever's place metal
Starting point is 02:06:44 detector or maybe place metal detector? Or maybe it's the airport one where you have to put your hands up and the thing goes around. Throw up the rock, yeah. That one and you just walk in and they do that thing and you walk out and they could tell if you have any cancer or if you had a something is.
Starting point is 02:07:02 That's. Your kidney is something. That's, some of that technology's still early on, but if you have the money, they have stuff like that. Like, they have body scans. It's varying levels of, you know, veracity or accuracy, but you can get that stuff scanned. Your lungs, they can take a look at like.
Starting point is 02:07:23 But I want it all in five seconds, the whole body, not just a lung liner. I agree on the technology, feel like there's a better way or time to deliver that information than 40 minutes before you're connecting flight to many app boards and you're like, Hey, you've got cancer, I hope you make your flight. So enjoy your vacation. Here's a voucher for a Cinnabon. Yeah, if you could make it both at the same thing. And then you don't, here's how it.
Starting point is 02:07:51 The terminal's just full of people weeping. We're saving jobs, though. So we don't have to hire unqualified people to be TSA checkers anymore. You just have doctors and nurses there. That's so funny just a guy blackout at TGI Fridays in the afternoon missing his flight because he just found out he has stage 4 prostate cancer. Or since you're taking this to that level then what if we do it at when you walk into a Mavs game? Oh yeah even better.
Starting point is 02:08:27 Even better. You're like well I'm already here. Yes I have leukemia. You might end up getting to meet Luca or something. Or you know a player that can Mavs you. Fast pass to the adult make a wish. Yeah. All right everyone who found out that they have cervical cancer, the 200s, 212 in particular, if you've got cancer, 212, you will get a signed Dorian Finney Smith basketball. My other quick gummy thought is that basically But basically people only dress the way they dress to indicate who they want to fuck. Like at the root of all clothing decisions. Historically, yeah, you, Luca. I want to have sex with Luca.
Starting point is 02:09:19 But like the only reason dresses exist is think about the pioneer day. They had to be able to be like, hey, you could lift this up and just take me. You think? Yeah. Definitely, there's no real... Utility for wearing a dress, yeah. Or if one versus the other, you would have both be one. So if pants are gonna be one, the dress.
Starting point is 02:09:42 I just think you only dress a certain way to say, hey, I am this and I like that. Yeah, and it makes sense because at some point, But so if pants are gonna be one to dress I just think you only dress a certain way to say like hey I am this and I like that Yeah, and it makes sense because at some point guys stop wanting that and so they stop caring see Interesting when you're 20 you want to seem like you're put together But when you stop your libido starts to slip you start wearing blue with black and just stuff you're not supposed to do Why are you looking at me? No, I'm saying, like, this doesn't match.
Starting point is 02:10:10 And remember, like 10, 15 years ago, I had to match everything of mine. But now I don't care. And so I'll wear this dark blue with black shoes. I don't care. Because you got married. You already have. You have legal sex now.
Starting point is 02:10:23 She's legally obligated to. Obligated. That's right So the promo code is dumb zone at early birth CVD comm and you'll get 20% off Okay, send them to the dumb zone at gmail.com my final email for the mailbag was hey boys I'm running the cowtown marathon Sunday crawl it. Is it cool if I put my company name as your YouTube channel for the directory? So in his company, he gave us, he put our YouTube. That's awesome. I'm also making a dumb zone running bib.
Starting point is 02:10:56 This is from James Crowley. You need to take him up on the Cybertruck offer. Maybe we'll do that next week. He said he could get that down in Dallas, right? Yeah. He has a Cybertruck offer. Maybe we'll do that next week. He said he could get that down in Dallas, right? Yeah. He has a Cybertruck and he was gonna let us go take a spin in it. Wanna do that and do some video? Yeah. Live streaming? Yeah. I will not get in it. You won't get in a Cybertruck? Absolutely not. Will you video us? I don't support that Roman saluter. Oh. Alright, well let's do the news.
Starting point is 02:11:27 Here's Jay with the dumb zone news. Does this have a sponsor? Oh yeah, Fair Lease. Fair Lease NaviDot. Fair Lease, check them out. FairLease.org. FairLease.org, that is where I would like you to lease your next vehicle. Fair Lease NaviDot.
Starting point is 02:11:41 Go say hey to Danny. Go say hey to Matthew at FairLease.org. Report back on your experiences. A little bit of sports news. This was all over everywhere yesterday. You recall we had a string of athlete burglaries in Q4 of last year. Yeah I was really into that. Recently I've been reading a lot about it. Maybe about a Recently I've been reading a lot about it. Maybe about a month ago I was reading a lot about it. Which I secretly thought of, of why the Mavs might have traded Luca. What did they find in his house?
Starting point is 02:12:14 Well, Luca... The reason you're thinking of conspiracy theories is because just nothing else makes sense. Yeah, you just have to access the, accept the Occam's razor. They didn't shop him around, so when it comes out in a couple years. You know why they didn't shop him around? They didn't shop him around because they only wanted Anthony Davis and they didn't want him to get out. Well, what if they found something in his house?
Starting point is 02:12:35 Then it would already be out there because then you would be not losing in, dude, if the guy was a pedophile, you say that the next day so that you don't lose 3,000 MavsTV subscriptions. You gain some for being like, hey, we won't stand for this. What organization would just take it in the shorts like that to keep something like that quiet?
Starting point is 02:12:57 No. Because then you get Anthony Davis out of it, rather than just like, oh, Luca needs some time away from the team. What? Is he going to start at the four or the five tonight? He's injured. Oh.
Starting point is 02:13:07 But he's got a funny TV show coming up. Oh, god. So Luca and Tyler Sagan were both robbed late last year, but they are not currently, it's unknown whether or not this story that's currently out there about these arrests is related to them. These arrests are related specifically to, if you recall, there was Patrick Mahomes,
Starting point is 02:13:25 there was Travis Kelce, there was Joe Burrow, there was Bobby Portis. Which one is not like the others? True, but NBA players make a lot of money. I know, but it's for a stature. I bet Bobby Portis makes significantly more than Travis Kelce does. Or has. Bobby Portis career 65 million.
Starting point is 02:13:54 I bet Kelce is under 100. Bobby Portis is 29. Career 94 for Kelce. By the end of it Bobby Portis is probably not that far away from Travis Kelsey. But yeah spare NBA player can make 12-13. Spare baseball player same thing. If you're not a pass rusher, wide receiver, quarterback you can probably be got by a Bobby Portis. And at least in the case of those Kansas City Chiefs players, Portis in Milwaukee and Burrow in Cincinnati, or at least the first three, the Kansas City ones and the Milwaukee one,
Starting point is 02:14:29 they were during home games for those players. So, kind of like how you used to hear, I feel like my dad, my stepmom, when they first found out about Facebook, we're all over this, we're not gonna post when we're on vacation. My wife's big about that. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:14:50 Well, she's not a big poster anyway, but yeah. But if you're going to, if you're an old, a lot of people will when it's vacation. They're like, oh, look, dolphins. And then people are like, oh, OK. So in this case, it's obvious. You have a home game, you're not gonna be there, they know when you leave. But in Burrough's case, he was actually in Dallas
Starting point is 02:15:13 when his home in Cincinnati was robbed. And he, along with Mahomes and Kelsey, had hired like round the clock home security teams. And this group, this gang of Chilean nationals, fellows from Chile who had been hanging out in America, they had observed from like the woods the patterns of the home security team when shift change was and where their vulnerability spots were because in the case of Mahomes' house and Portis' actually it says they came to entry without breaking any doors or windows.
Starting point is 02:15:46 They just figured out exactly where the panel was that they could unscrew it from the wall, walked right in while the security team was there in the driveway. Wow. And stole anywhere from a million to two million from each one of these guys. It was also a player, unnamed Bucks player, Tampa Bay, and an unnamed Grizzlies player. It's really brilliant. Yeah. Because all that part of it. My thought was yeah if you make 30 million a year or 50 or whatever these quarterbacks make can't you afford the best security and apparently they had the best security yet these guys still went after them.
Starting point is 02:16:22 Yeah. Like a challenge. Like a challenge. And like I said, yeah, just watching from the woods, monitoring the pattern of security guards, breaking into the homes by breaking small windows or prying open sliding doors. Watches, bags, chains, cash, and an abortion. Side note, we're going to do a commentary on media. This ESPN.com article, one of the few I read on this, uses this term, which feels a bit archaic.
Starting point is 02:16:54 Their booty had an estimated value of about $3 million. That's a pirate's booty. So yes, as Dan said, very smart. They're tracking movements. They take it as a challenge. They pulled it off. Not as smart. Uploading all of their selfies of them posing with all
Starting point is 02:17:19 of their booty to an iCloud account so they could share it with their other gangster friends and show them. And in one of them, I think while they're at Bobby Portis' house, one of them is wearing a Mahomes jersey, which is funny. Yeah. He clearly just boosted that and kept it with him. But why did the iCloud account, why is that a bad idea? Well because with a warrant they did
Starting point is 02:17:46 Yeah, okay, so they suspected these guys now I have a warrant for their I think they suspected these guys But also they got pulled over what they were doing were renting cars And at one point they got pulled over in a rental and the body cam footage is actually out there. They were Was it speeding? But they got pulled over they said they don't really speak English. One of them was wearing a bingo stocking cap you can see in the video and they got pulled over. They took everything and they just kept wearing it. Officer asked them in Spanish where they were headed. This was in and they said Orlando we're headed to Orlando and the cop was like wrong direction person in the back seat then
Starting point is 02:18:29 changed his destination to New York then to Florida they searched the car they find the tools yeah for how no punches for how methodical they were to make sure they could get that crime done. It's a Luigi Mangione thing, right? Like, you didn't have this part of it? Yeah. At least in his case, she'd be like, did he want to get caught with these guys? No, but the selfies are hilarious.
Starting point is 02:18:57 I mean, it's just, they look like cops after a drug bust. You know, they have it all laid out neatly on a table, except they also are wearing some of the chains and a Chiefs jersey like throwing up the hang loose. So yeah, seven people have been charged in this burglary sting. I don't know, maybe subconsciously this is why I live so light because you're not getting shit off me. There's nothing, dude I was telling my wife this morning
Starting point is 02:19:29 I'm proposing that we spend one hour a month just Throwing stuff away like I do it kind of on my own I don't know that my family knows this but if I find a random toy And I'm like I haven't seen that in about a month until last night. I throw it away immediately Wow, I throw it away immediately. Wow. I donate shirts and stuff every couple months. I just feel like I need to... Like heat.
Starting point is 02:19:54 Walk away in 30 seconds flat. You feel the heat. By the way, also... Do you have a go bag? Not that far off, dude. I guess my gym bag, of course bag was just got cleats in it in case I need those I don't know if I came up with something genius here Or if this is just the most obvious thing ever and I'm now adopting it where my wife was out of town recently I made it a point to wash
Starting point is 02:20:20 To launder and fold every article of clothing in the house, other than what the kids and I had on at that moment. So everything is going to get clean. So everything that was hanging in the closet? No, but like they have four or five loads of laundry, I've got some, I wanted when she got back, everything is done. Okay. And big part of the reason for this was, I'm driven insane by unmatched socks. And my kids are two different sizes of socks, but they both have plain white ones,
Starting point is 02:20:51 they both have plain, and they just look too similar. It's too much bullshit. So what I have done is I've matched all the socks they have, I will probably eventually be throwing those out, but those that don't have a match, I threw every one of those socks away, and this morning I ordered each of them like 15 pair of socks that are basically all one for the girl and all one for the boy so
Starting point is 02:21:12 you can now tell and they don't really they look very different yeah and there's you know a dollar a pair yeah no you don't think about it till you're in the weeds yeah but I'm sitting there, spending time, like, I wonder, can I find, maybe this sock is in the other load, and finally it's like, ridiculous. I'll buy him new socks every three months, if that's what it takes to never be like, oh God, half their socks don't match.
Starting point is 02:21:38 Anyways, just a tip for those at home. I think it's important to do an occasional Inventory. Buy all new socks. Yeah. I mean, for me, it's Christmas. Every couple years, you could do it every year, you're saying? Like, all new, whatever.
Starting point is 02:21:58 I might buy, I might get a new eight pack of socks for the year, maybe a 10 pack. OK, I have to get... I have to have enough that I can rotate or do... go a couple weeks without doing laundry. I do laundry almost every day. If I need to. I like to do a load every day.
Starting point is 02:22:15 I do a load every week for sure. But it might be every few days. Don't know if we need an open for this. I feel like we do. We've mentioned this once before and we're gonna keep track of it I've told you guys about so ends in a second too long. I've told you guys about the asteroid. Oh Yeah, is this the mansion sized asteroid we're up to Oh yeah. Is this the mansion-sized asteroid?
Starting point is 02:22:44 We're up to 3.1% for 2032. This is the highest risk assessment NASA has ever provided for an asteroid surpassing 2.7 in 2004. So we're only going up really hot in the polls right now. Remember this. Kind of started out unranked and now we're. That's a higher percentage than you would have given the Mavs trading, Luca.
Starting point is 02:23:09 By about three times a thousand. Yeah. I'll tell you what. Three percent? I mean, I've won bets that had less than a three percent chance of winning. We all have. It was probably bad of me to flee the area for the eclipse a couple years ago.
Starting point is 02:23:30 Why don't you tell me where this asteroid is supposed to hit and I'll go there in 2032. Because this is not happening. Okay, well while I appreciate your bravery, I'm pretty sure if an asteroid... Have you heard about the fucking Ice Age? Where... I don't know that it's a localized event where you're like... That's all just a theory. Oh, God. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:23:54 No, don't yeah that. For strength. Just give me East Coast, Asia, wherever it's supposed to hit, and make a mansion-sized hole in the earth, I'll stand there. For the show. I'll stream it. For the show. I'll stream it. I love the bit and I will go with you. No, no, he's getting on my bit. But I'm just telling you, it's not going to matter where we are. The entire earth will be gone.
Starting point is 02:24:18 Or it will at least be uninhabitable. I'll be like... Like explain, how does an asteroid hitting the earth kill all the dinosaurs? That's why I'm not sure if there were dinosaurs. I think those fossils were planted. I mean, I think what happened is, first of all, it created a huge crater in the Earth, right? So there's a, I don't know, there's a this is the end level just fall into the Earth. But I think the biggest thing is that it creates shockwaves right? So there's a, there's a this is the end level, just fall into the earth. But I think the biggest thing is that it creates
Starting point is 02:24:47 like shock waves and changes and you know, there's hurricanes, there's tsunamis, tsunamis, exactly. Earthquakes everywhere and it just, everything just dies. Oh, they're calling it a risk corridor. That's cool. That feels very P. Delkis. I'll head to the corridor. Where is it?
Starting point is 02:25:08 Eastern Pacific Ocean... I don't know. We'll travel then. Yeah, I'll fly for this. What if it lands in the ocean? Then we're fine. Well, no, would the ripple effect... Of course it would. What I'm telling you is that we're all going to die if this happens. No, we're not.
Starting point is 02:25:26 Is your position that it's not going to happen or is it when it does happen it'll basically be like an amber alert that you can just look out your blind and raise... They're saying it's like a city killing asteroid. It's not going to destroy us. Okay, maybe I had it wrong then. You've watched too much Armageddon. Can that be a thing that happens? No.
Starting point is 02:25:49 Can you watch too much of that? It's like a documentary. I'll work on getting us a showbunker. Showbunker? Yeah, showbunker. Whoa, why can you not say the word bunker? I don't know, my mouth just stopped working. Yeah, what's wrong with your tongue, bro?
Starting point is 02:26:03 I think you've got too many Lucy's in. Oh yeah. Bunker. There we go. There we go. OK, yeah, you're right. This one does say city killing. But 1 in 32 is not low.
Starting point is 02:26:20 Not at all. And then let's go over to the adult content world, okay the big news yesterday, maybe late Tuesday was that one of the Warring whores from the only fans world Bonnie blue she's the the woman who said she had sex with a thousand men in 12 hours and Was kind of a champ about it like didn't seem like it was a big deal. Like the lady that had a hundred was all crying about it. A hundred and yeah a hundred and something in 24 hours. Lily Phillips, her rival seemed pretty traumatized. They filmed the documentary about it. Blake watched it. We reviewed it.
Starting point is 02:26:59 She was like, oh, is Tom's eyes a bit more calm than I thought it would be. My eyes are burning. And she was kind of crying. Long day? No, they're coming it. But Bonnie Blue was more, she's the one that would go to college campuses and rush weeks and spring breaks all over the world. And she would just offer up like, hey,
Starting point is 02:27:18 you can have sex with me for free. I'm going to film it, though. And it's made her millions and millions and millions of millions of dollars. I'm going to do this this year to sororities. I'm gonna show up. Oh yeah. Be like, hey, put out an ad. It's free. I know you're surprised by this, but it's free. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:27:35 But I'm gonna need to film it. Just see how, see where it gets me. I want you exactly like that. The Adidas track pants, the Lone Star Beanie, and the Luca Lakers all black. Hey. I'll go to, let's go up to Oklahoma State. Let's see how things are going up there. So here's the story. Bonnie Blue and Lily Phillips have been warring, which is interesting because I've heard that they film scenes together With all you know ten other dudes. They're both I believe from England London
Starting point is 02:28:17 So a couple days ago Bonnie blue posted on I think it was on Instagram first With just a caption that said cravings she posted posted a bunch of different crazy food combos, like a pickle covered with chocolate. Gross. And people took away from that that she's pregged up. Like she wrote cravings jokingly and posted a few things that were very clearly, like a woman would only eat this when they were, do you guys remember any of yours when you were pregnant?
Starting point is 02:28:47 Are you trying to say we were pregnant like me and my wife were pregnant together? Of course. With your baby? That's so woke. Yeah my wife would eat weird stuff. I just can't remember what mine were. I feel like there was an item from like Sonic I was going to get. Are you alleging that you would have a craving? No. Oh alright. But she would send you for something? Yeah there was a few of them and I don't know maybe we have them written down somewhere. I know my wife always thought things were too salted or whatever. She needs the reverse Japanese
Starting point is 02:29:25 spoon. Or something like that. But she would call managers out to complain. I'm like, no, hey, look, this is fine. I'm eating it too. No, no, no, you don't get it. I mean, there's the Karen and then there's the pregnant. Yeah. At that point, because society like gives them a pass, so they're like, oh shit, I'm gonna lean into this. Yeah, I think being pregnant helps you become a Karen. I wonder if there are Karens who have never been pregnant. My personal research would say yes, but I do think you're right that it's less common because it's a gateway.
Starting point is 02:29:59 It's giving you the pass and now you're, you get everything you want. It's because really what it is is the lack of awareness that it's not all about you whether it's logical or not you're getting what you want right and so they think well the rest of my life should be like this too it's a great point great point Dan thanks bro so back to the story though so Bonnie blue she's the one who had sex with a thousand dudes in 12 hours she posts like craving Well, because it's a tough world out there. It took one day for Lily Phillips, her rival to post that she is pregnant.
Starting point is 02:30:37 Now hers comes with a little more controversy. One, Bonnie blue didn't straight up say she was pregnant. This Lily Phillips lady posted a photo of her with a bump and a picture of two pregnancy tests. One of them says pregnant, one of them says inconclusive, but one of them says pregnant. And she posted this with her like with a baby bump, but people were like she was just at the AVN awards. Do you ever used to watch that?
Starting point is 02:31:03 I'm like, E? Wait, night? Absolutely. Yeah. The adult video awards, sure. And she didn't look pregnant at all two weeks ago. Best blow job, no way. She doesn't deserve that. They're all the best.
Starting point is 02:31:20 So, her... Her team, I don't know, whoever gives a comment to the paper when asked about this for Lily Phillips said that it is part of role play. Like all people in her industry, her job involves role playing and acting. So this is her pretending to be pregnant because some dudes think it's hot to think of her as pregnant. So she has like a fake baby bump. Okay. Gerbs is always into that. Yeah, I remember him telling me that.
Starting point is 02:31:56 At least he said, the pregnant lady. I haven't talked to the guy in a year. Then he texted me the other day and all it just said was still into pregnant chicks. Yeah. I was like, oh, dude, I know. I think that's because you could be in a threesome. Pfft. That's why.
Starting point is 02:32:17 It's kind of a new take on the reach around, you know? It's like, did they grab it from in there. Yeah, if you could shove it in far enough. I just find it funny that we have warring OnlyFans stars who are using their pregnancies. And as many people noted in these comments, I, as someone who has been through the fertility struggle, actually find this abhorrent.
Starting point is 02:32:45 So yeah, these two ladies who, I mean, you thought, you kind of think they're going as far as they can go. The one lady had a Sex of the 100 guys. She did 1,000. Like, how are we going to keep in the news cycle? It's 1,000 while pregnant. Yeah, I guess fake pregnancy now is one way. But now they're going to have to thousand while pregnant. I guess, yeah, I guess fake pregnancy now is one way, but now they're going to have to actually get pregnant, yeah.
Starting point is 02:33:09 And then together they'll take on 2,000. That's the thing. They'll team up. Yeah. And they have before, so it's not like it would be, you know. Yeah. There's a familiarity there. They've played in the same offense.
Starting point is 02:33:26 Quick update on a school board meeting that happened this morning, is we love to bring you the latest from KISD here, the dumb zone news. Keller's superintendent, who whenever the proposal to split the district between the Porries and the not Porries came out, the superintendent was like, I'm res resigning I'm not cool with this so that followed
Starting point is 02:33:48 with like public outcry of like no don't we love you these people are crazy we're not gonna accept the resignation well this morning they did she was fine I guess she was like look I don't want anything to do with this and I don't think I could stop it so I'm against this proposal and I want to bow I want to bow out As of this morning she did So that this this might actually happen Wild Right out there in front of God and everybody like you guys are over there
Starting point is 02:34:21 Yeah, my buddy max his kid one of his kids goes there or goes to that high school and I guess his wife's against it. Max, the trainer. Yeah it goes to the to Keller or to Fossil Ridge or do you know if he's on the... I mean to be clear too by the way like the bad side of Keller quote-unquote it's not bad. Yeah. It's just a lower tier suburb, little rundown but it's not like you're he says it won't affect him from where he lives So he must live on the good side or something, but he's like his wife's still against it Because she's for good not evil. We had an execution last night in Huntsville Richard tabler was executed Okay, wait actually this was late last week, but this is creepy how do we do it now this is a lethal Engie, okay wait actually this was late last week, but this is creepy. How do we do it now?
Starting point is 02:35:06 This is uh, lethal enji. Okay. I was wondering how you might shorten that word. I could have done better, but in the moment, didn't have it. So he made some comments about, he had killed two people, two teen girls, and he apologized for that. He apologized several times. And the victim's families were there to watch.
Starting point is 02:35:33 And he... That's common, right? He walked through how he was sorry, how, apologies, they'll never return to you. He told the warden in Huntsville, quote, I am finished. And as the drugs began pouring into his body, he mouthed once again, looking at the victim's family, I'm sorry. Okay, I thought you were gonna say fire Nico. That would be great.
Starting point is 02:35:55 Yeah. But I just think it'd be so creepy to just have the person who killed your whoever just stare you right in the face. And there's not even any sound sound but as it's the poison is coursing through their central nervous system they're just like would you want to be there I don't think I would oh yeah I'd Yeah. Yeah. The Keller superintendent was making $300,000 a year. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:36:33 And walking away from that? That's pretty ballsy. You must know that you have something else. Who would leave their highly paid child? Sometimes you've got to stand on business, baby! Without a parachute. Principle. Alright, there it is. Sometimes who would leave their highly paid child? Sometimes you got to stand on business, baby. Without a parachute. Principle. All right, there's his.
Starting point is 02:36:49 Oh. You don't sound like a guy who's ready to run through Delta Zeta, Oklahoma State. Subscribe. Not yet. We're asking a lot out of you. We did bring back up during the NBR while you were gone that Dan needs to get fake testosterone. It's not fake.
Starting point is 02:37:09 There's nothing fake about it. Whatever. Supplements. Sure. Just to see. Little TRT. Oh, I'm right on the edge. Of doing it yourself?
Starting point is 02:37:18 Yeah. I'm waiting for that 4-0. Just put on your fairy wings. Give her what she wants. That's a good point. I'm on a version of it. What do you got? It's called Clomid.
Starting point is 02:37:29 Oh, yeah. My wife took that when we were trying to get pregnant. It works for guys, too. What does it do? You got a boner all the time? No, but it does say it can help treat male low testosterone levels, but this is I believe what I used to have to inject in my wife's butt cheek every day. Yeah, so I take it in pill form
Starting point is 02:37:56 and it's... I have a pituitary issue, so it helps. It probably helps with weight loss too, right? Yeah. Yeah, your pituitary, yeah. it helps. Probably helps with weight loss too, right? Yeah. Yeah, your pituitary, yeah. Yeah, so it helps with that, and the one thing I notice is like, if I stop taking it, I don't have to like, you know, it's like when you take the injections,
Starting point is 02:38:15 you basically just have to keep taking the injections. But with a pill, it doesn't work that way. Yeah. Yeah, okay, that makes sense. Yeah. What if Clayton shows up pregnant? This little thing says the Clomid Cycle and all the things you have to do. But it says here you're supposed to have regular intercourse.
Starting point is 02:38:33 Is that what you were having? That might be the problem. Dude, you know, we talked about this. You know how regular it was. Dan's talked about this. You run that shit like the triangle offense. Everything is on time. Everything happens exactly when it's supposed to. Oh no, she's tracking everything.
Starting point is 02:38:52 Yeah, dude. There's... Yeah, regular for sure. Yeah, I've never had more sex in my life. Regular intercourse, it's got some hearts. It's like... What do you mean regular? No, that's what it is. It's intercourse. You're not having sex. You're not making love. I mean, you're fighting for every inch to get a sputter. How about viewer mail birthdays?
Starting point is 02:39:12 Uncle Dan. Sorry, dude. He's done with it. He's so done with his little roommates. I'd appreciate it. Birthday shout out from an important person in my life myself. Tomorrow, today, is my
Starting point is 02:39:26 Michael Jordan with the White Sox birthday. My leaders are Dan's toxic combo of extreme horniness plus lack of energy to do anything about it. What a theme. Jake's courage to escape his family and all responsibilities for an entire month and Blake's general disinterest in any travel outside of DFW. From DF Matt. Dear Fred Squirt, leader of Limp Biz Clit. Fred Squirt is a stretch, but I still, I still love it. Birthday shout out to my special buddies Walter, Tyler, and Jamie. It's their OJ birthday. OJ Mayo.
Starting point is 02:40:11 Their leaders are Sarah Heppala's hidden sweater puppies. There's not much hidden about it. Heather Brooks lime wire videos. Holy shit. That is a callback right right there I saw she still has a Twitter account the other day Heather I deep throat the Persian Gulf War and the power I formation tell Jake his courage is inspiring I am a recovering low-life deadbeat alcoholic myself been sober now going on eight hours hey buddy progress not perfection my man more trans champ and bisexual mavs man send nico to guantanamo bay establish the run from Lino. Damn, that's a cool name.
Starting point is 02:41:09 And Hello Monster of the Mons Pubis, please wish my mother, Rebecca, happy 67th birthday. She will listen to this on a plane. She is a proud card carrying member of the Beehive. Hell yeah. And her leader is the incel way in which Jake refers to women as females. From Nick. Interesting. I just have, I think I've always thought it was weird when people, when adult males say girls when they're talking about women.
Starting point is 02:41:38 What about broad? Broad feels more respectful to me. Broads. But when people are like, yeah, I might, you know. What about slit? Again, I think all of these things are more respectful than the nubilization of a 40-year-old woman. Like, oh, my wife had some girls over. They're not girls. They're women who can crush you with their thighs.
Starting point is 02:42:00 So today is Thursday, February 20th. On this day in 1907, President Theodore Roosevelt signed an Immigration Act which excluded idiots, imbeciles, feeble-minded persons, epileptics, and insane persons from being admitted into the United States. On this day in 1962, astronaut John Glenn became the first American to orbit the Earth. Cool, he's like, look at it, it's round. Just as I thought. There it is, folks. On this day in 1987, a bomb left by Unabomber Ted Kaczynski exploded in Salt Lake City. This day in 1989, members of the 1949 Oklahoma football team canceled an April reunion because they
Starting point is 02:42:54 were disgusted by the deplorable conduct of Oklahoma players. What year? 89. So I don't know what they were doing back then. Probably cocaine and stuff right yeah 80s and on this day in 2003 a fire sparked by pyrotechnics broke out during a concert by the group great white in Rhode Island killing a hundred people and injuring 200 others that was a that was a significant portion of the hard lines for about a month it felt like.
Starting point is 02:43:31 Other birthdays today. Jurikson Profar, 32. Very weird career. You had an All-Star last year, right? Yeah. He's just now getting good. It's good to see Spencer Patton 37 Ranger yeah former cowboy Jeff Robinson 55 I am going to say that
Starting point is 02:43:56 this is a research project that no one can pull off but I would guess that there is not a player who has played more games with a lower war in their career than Jurekson Profar did before he turned in a 4.3 last season. He had five seasons of negative war. And all of a sudden, it's a plus. He's negative 1 point six the year before His ops jumps 200 points. I Don't know he was one of those guys because I was in the GTFBA when he was in the minors sure and I had him
Starting point is 02:44:39 So he was just so good in the minors like always he was like Luca. He was always Two years younger than his competition and he was like Luca he was always two years younger than his competition and he was like the best player in each stop and that's why you just predicted I mean he was Keith Law's number one prospect I believe he was over Oscar Tavares. Charles Barkley is 62. So what's happening there? They're doing the show elsewhere? Yeah, it's gonna be on... It's still gonna be produced by TNT, but it's going to be aired on ESPN, I think. But supposedly they're concerned. That'll still just change the whole...
Starting point is 02:45:21 ...vibe of the whole thing. Stefan Marbury is 38. Excuse me, 48. Dan. So this morning I went and searched Starberry shoes. They were $15 a pair. When you bought them or now? When I bought them.
Starting point is 02:45:39 Now you'd pay quite a bit on eBay or something. But then whatever company went out of business like went bankrupt Well, yeah And the shoes were terrible. I Think maybe two or three weeks and it had a rip in it Are you familiar with these Blake? Oh, yeah, okay cousinousin of Sebastian Telfer, people forget. While reading this article too it said Shaq is also a guy who has done a lower lower level shoe marketing thing like I guess he has a line of shoes he sells at
Starting point is 02:46:17 Walmart but he's made like hundreds of millions off it. I'm not surprised by that Shaq does a lot of stuff like that. I've heard that that's why he does ads for the general. Which is kind of a, typically thought of as a little bit of a cut rate. It's insurance, car insurance. And I believe, totally freewheeling here, that Shaq has said he does ads for them
Starting point is 02:46:44 because they were the only people he could get to insure him or insure his parents or something when he was a kid. Justin Verlander is 42. Kate Upton. I was looking at obviously he's number one in war games for today's birthdays like 80 like he's a Hall of Famer right already? Yeah for sure if nothing else that photo. Brent Gretzky is 53. He is part of the highest scoring duo of brothers in NHL history. So the highest scoring duo has 2857 points. Brent Gretzky had four points. Cindy Crawford 59. Mitch McConnell 83. Boy that's one I never got man. You never thought Cindy Crawford was hot? No. Really? Growing up, you're like, what? I don't get it.
Starting point is 02:47:46 She kind of, to me, looks like what Caitlyn Jenner is now. Yeah, I can see that. I promise you Caitlyn Jenner was like, I want to look like Cindy Crawford. And they did it. Mitch McConnell, huh? Did he fall the other day? Did he?
Starting point is 02:48:03 I think so. Yeah. He doesn't seem like he's doing great. Four hours ago he announced retirement. Will not run for re-election in 2026. Looks like a turtle. Definitely. Andrew Shue, actor, is 58. Remember his place? Brother of Elizabeth Shue. Andrea Savage is 52. She was the therapist in Step Brothers.

Starting point is 02:49:11 Not a child, but he doesn't look like a man to me. And sometimes to me, even when I was like really fat and like looking old, I don't think I look like a man. Like Dan looks like a man. And he kind of always said think I look like a man. Like, Dan looks like a man. Hmm. And he kind of always said, you look like a kid. I feel like I still look like a child, kind of. Like, Miles Teller's 38. You look at him and you just, he still kind of looks like a teenager. Whereas then you'll see, like, I don't know, Chris Hemsworth or somebody
Starting point is 02:49:41 who's 38. You're like, oh shit, that's a man. I don't agree with that for you just because you're so hairy. Like you could get a five o'clock shadow right away, don't you? Yeah, and Miles Teller had a beard at the SNL thing the other day, but he just still has like a- But Blake looks like a baby with a beard. Yes, it's hard for me to imagine him ever looking like an adult. I yes, it's hard for me to imagine him ever looking like an adult This is not a Detriment to life Blake. No, it's good to be that. I don't know. I have no comment It's good. I didn't ask born on the stay now dead
Starting point is 02:50:18 Pier bouillé, I think that's his name He wrote Planet of the Apes the book Great book. Ivana Trump, who is buried on a golf course. Dude, I went down the wildest Trump family wormhole last night. So, DJ TJ has a daughter. Her name is Kai Trump.
Starting point is 02:50:44 K-A-Y, K-A-I. That is with his first wife, who I believe her name is Vanessa. And Vanessa, okay, so here's part of it. Kai, the daughter, who's 17, I don't know where she ranks, but she's one of the top female golfers in the country. Really? There's a photo of her from last weekend with Tiger.
Starting point is 02:51:08 And I think this weekend she's playing in some sort of invitational with Charlie. Boys. So Charlie and Kai Tromp will play in the prestigious Junior. Yeah. And the crazy thing is, is the mom, like I said, I think it's Vanessa Trump. I looked at her Wikipedia page and For several years in the late 90s and early 2000s, I think it was four or five years She was dating one of the princes of Saudi Arabia Would you like to know when they broke up
Starting point is 02:51:41 September of 2001 when he went back to Saudi Arabia after him and his family were suspected of being the planners of 9-eleven. Then a few years later she married DJ TJ. Like three years later. Had a baby who is now a top female golfer What I'm saying is it's just all the same and now you know who he's dating now Kimberly Guilfoyle Who is Gavin Newsom's ex-wife? Feels like we might be run by a few families. It's all I'm saying. Are you watching tiger in this indoor golf league? No, is it good? No tiger.'s Tiger. No, it's Tiger. Getting mad at his teammates. Charlie Woods listed as the 37th and final participant in the...what is this? This is the big, the junior invitational at Sage Valley.
Starting point is 02:52:39 Ah, yes. So apparently this is a big deal. It says it's usually comprised of the 36 highest ranked boys and 24 highest ranked girls in the world. Woods ranks 713th. Dang. I thought he was like really, really good. So did I. I mean, I guess even being 700th in the world, you're probably better than we are.
Starting point is 02:53:03 Yeah. Maybe he's just really young too right maybe that's like a four-year age window and he's at the bottom of it oh or maybe he just won't grow up and be tiger can that be anyway I really wanted to read you this part a name I've never seen before the top ranked Defending champ at the in the women's side. Oh By the way, the Trump is ranked 2342 She's gonna grind up there. So they're inviting tiger in her because of their names it seems Sounds like DEI to me. It does
Starting point is 02:53:50 Anyway, the defending champion's name is... Last name Tally, first name Asterisk. Her name is Asterisk. That's a zero, right? Oh, that's 100% a zero, but... You might end up knowing who... This might be a really famous person someday. Because that name is very... unique. And you will then have asterisks running all over the place.
