Oh, my, what a bargain.
Now, on to today's program.
Hey, Jake.
What a do?
Let's talk about the OG of advertisers.
The only one with drones.
Qualus roofing.
I think the only one with drones.
They're the one with the only drone that sponsors our premier live events.
And they're the only roofing company you can trust.
You might have money sitting up there on your roof.
You never know until you call Qualis, have them come out, check it out.
And then you're thinking, I was thinking about this this weekend.
Even insurance guys don't want to call the insurance company.
Like they know.
Yeah.
Dude, what about all the wind, darling?
Oh, my goodness.
The wind has probably affected your roof.
Damage up there.
If you haven't had an inspection in a while, call callus.
QualisGC.com is the website.
The phone number 817, 500, 90,000.
Brian and the boys out there
have taken care of tons of listeners.
They're also in the commercial game.
I wanted to remind you about that.
So if you got a biz, hit them up for that.
It's qualusc.com.
The phone number again, 817500, 900, 90808,
QualisGC.com.
When you need a roof on your home,
they're the ones with the drone.
Put a roof on the mother, put a roof on air.
Qualis G.C.
Friends, happy Thursday.
Wealth Management to have that business Wednesday.
We are broadcasting live to tape today, not from the Game Day Men's Health Studio,
but from False Idol Brewery.
Oh, wow.
Hell yeah.
What support?
The biggest ovation we've ever gotten anywhere from one guy.
Where are we?
Like what city?
Northridge Hills.
This is North Richardson Hill.
Can't feel the power emanating from Jake.
I've probably been in this building before.
Car service, obviously.
I can't recall the specific name of the business.
They'll probably tell us.
But yeah, I spent a lot of time right here.
Yeah, anyway, so I'm Dan McDowell.
I'm Jay Kim.
I'm Blake Jones.
We have Foodie CK out here as well because, yeah, we're here for a birthday party,
a listener birthday party.
Good bit.
And they're like, why don't we have the dumb zone out?
And we said, okay.
We've done a wedding.
We don't know.
Well, that's, I don't like to offer that out.
Well, I think the recipient of the wedding visit made it pretty clear that we have a standard.
It's not for anybody.
Yeah, yeah.
And it had to be real close, you know.
You get a wait clause in your pre-nup, then, yeah, we'll be at your wedding.
Yeah, anyway, so.
Good rule.
Yeah, we're out here today.
Hey, there's Blake's family.
Yeah, I did not know they were coming.
Blake's family is here as well.
I don't think you're invited to the party.
Oh, here's this guy
All of a sudden upset that strangers are showing up at parties
That they have no connection to
Well, I at least get it in by
Yeah
Anyway, Jake, you've been gone for a couple days
Did you know that?
I did.
Yeah
So welcome back
Hey, thanks for having me
What was your deal?
Why weren't you here?
Spring break.
Jake check is this week.
Weekend check.
We thought it was throwing related.
Oh, that's right, we never had a weekend check from Jake.
yeah here we go it's uh we left on sunday morning four of us and we drove to a place that i'd never
heard of until about a month ago i wish i could give you a promo coach sort of uh affiliate advertising
he's the devil i have been to so much more church than at least you probably clayton and
Blake is the only one topping me.
I was in...
Blake's the top.
I did a lot of church.
So we left on Sunday
and we drove down to a place
that I'd never heard of
until about a month ago.
It's called Camp Fempho.
Female, inside, male,
female outside.
I have no idea why it's called that.
I should have looked that up.
They have one in Waco.
And they have one in New Braunvilles.
We went to the ladder.
Just because, and I wasn't really given a choice, but if I had a choice, an extra 90 minutes to spend time in the hill country, be at rehab or with my family, as opposed to in Waco, I'm taking that every time.
It's where I want to move to.
What about Chip?
Jojo.
Chip and his sister, Shannon, who runs my school board, and by runs, I mean, into the ground.
No thanks.
But I love it down there.
I actually went on the back end of the trip
I drove my college campus
because we were about 10-15 minutes away
Did you tell Nora about Arsenio Hall?
Dude, the house, and I think I've told you guys this, it's gone.
Aw.
It's crazy.
I don't think I can convey to you guys how crazy it is.
Like the Koresh compound?
They had to get rid of it?
There were deaths, not under our watch, but before.
It was supposed to be haunted.
Yeah, there was a fraternity that got banned
for beating a kid to death.
in like the 80s.
It was an old frownhouse.
Oh, like a Rootnet.
You don't want to do it to death.
No, no.
That's right, yeah.
Do it to a certain level.
Right.
Give him a break after a couple rounds.
Let him recharge.
There's fun hazing and then there's those guys.
Just beat him to fun.
If Dan's Trail of Tears is the Arsenio Hall,
I want to go to the site for Roe v. Wade,
the boxing match held in the backyard.
I stood there.
I stood there, dude.
It's crazy.
And I'll try to explain this.
But down at San Marcos, a lot of the houses,
is that the bigger ones are built into a hill.
So from the front it looks like a one-story house.
And then around back, it's two stories.
There's a hole downstairs, and the deck was the whole thing.
And then there was a big backyard in the back where you could set up wrestling rings, whatever.
The house is gone.
And so when you walk up to the front, the front porch is still there, the concrete portion.
Not the porch, but what would you call that?
Like the sidewalk and the shrubs in the front of the house.
And you walk right up to where in between the,
these shrubs the door would be and it's just a massive vacant lot on a hill it's a field it's a
field it's a few it's back to a field yeah the university is uh has purchased it but anyways on the way
down there this place it's almost like glamping for families it's uh it's a it's a it's a place with
i think it probably started as an rv park you know there's a lot of land down in the hill country
and i was telling uh that's just there and i was telling dan this the other day much like i invented
YouTube TV, I used to drive up and down 35 and just see all this beautiful land.
And I love camping.
And I would think, like, who owns that?
Can I get out on that?
Like, why couldn't I just pay $25 to go?
Yeah, for one acre in the middle of this?
Yeah, I just pay a small amount.
Yeah, and even to go, like, chill for a few days or whatever.
Like, what if you wanted to do that?
And you're like, no, somebody owns that.
Well, somebody who owns that.
It's like sharecropping, but.
But for vacation.
You're just sitting, yeah.
Share sitting.
share sitting.
I explained to Dan, what share cropping was while you were gone.
Cropping, yeah.
So now I'm really into it.
It's a good deal, man, for everyone.
It feels like owning the land is great.
Yeah.
So somebody down there, I guess it probably started as an RV park,
expanded that RV park into, man, there must be two or three hundred little cabins.
And they're like one room, basically a living room, a bedroom, a loft up top, and a bathroom.
and they charge you 175 a night.
And there's just neighborhoods of these.
And it's out in the hill country.
So you've got the backdrop of the hills, the quote unquote mountains.
It's beautiful.
Then they have...
It's Airbnb like they don't clean it every day, right?
They do, actually, if you ask them to.
And they have a water park with a heated pool on one side
and then, you know, like huge hot tubs.
So they have like a full water park set up.
They have another pool that's huge.
They have a zipline, like a badass adult.
My kids are too young for it.
Zipline.
All sorts of just activities.
They've got an arts and crafts thing.
They've got, oh, you know what they had that was sick?
An alpine coaster.
You ever been on one of those, like in Colorado or something?
It's like a little roller coaster that's built into the side of a mountain.
and you sit in like a little,
it doesn't feel safe, dude.
Like when you press those handles down,
you're going, I feel like
25, 30, 35 miles an hour
on a little cart.
And if it goes into the curve,
you're like, a lot of trust here.
Because if I fly off here with my 7-year-old
in my lap, we're both dead.
Like we're flying into a tree
30 feet up into the air.
But you still did it.
We did it, and then the boy wanted to do it again.
You got to book it and pay.
So I got to do that the next day.
But it's just a bunch of, it's just an activity camp.
It's like summer camp for going with your family.
And you just, they have restaurant or two there.
A lot of, the adults are all drinking.
It's definitely a party place.
But it's super chill.
And it was not that expensive.
So, uh, yeah, big recommend.
And then we also had the, I'm sure there's a lot of people who are like, duh, about this next, uh,
piece of advice, but just go out of your way to vacation with another family with similarly
aged children.
It really lightens the load.
Yeah.
Like we went with Doyle King's son who coaches soccer with me.
Well, he's way older than Nora.
Okay.
Yeah, he's, but he was held back.
He's in first grade.
Doyle's son and his daughter, and they have an older son and then his wife.
So, yeah, they just keep each other occupied the whole time.
Plus, maybe you get into a little couple thing, like a little swapy.
Oh, sure, yeah.
You can.
That can happen.
It can.
I'm not saying it did.
And you swap, swap, and then everyone together at the end, you know?
Yeah.
And eventually, maybe you swap families.
Like those relievers.
Like Mike Clevenger or whoever from the Yankees.
But it was an excellent time, man.
You know, I'm very, very lucky.
I don't know.
I'm at this.
I'm just gay.
I'm just fucking gay now.
I'm overwhelmed with joy when I'm hanging out with my kids.
It's very hard for me not to just sit there and do the Dave Chappelle thing where I'm
watching the two of them go on slides together possibly after an early bird.
I'm like, damn, these people came from my balls.
And now they're like friends and they make friends and I'm crying.
And it's just awesome.
It's just I'm at the happiest time of my life.
And it was super cool.
And then we get home this morning and they're still on break.
So Dan the other day was like, man, it's kind of tough.
My wife is home.
She's not going to work.
We went through this.
Then I have to talk to her.
Dude, when I left this morning, there were three people engaged.
One of them is 37 in a full-fledged Royal Rumble.
All three of them are hitting each other.
Not hitting.
But Kristen's trying to separate them.
They're yelling at each other.
They're crying.
And I'm like, deuce's.
See ya.
Yep.
Dad's got to go.
to his job.
Got back this morning?
We got back last night.
Okay.
We got back last night, but they're going, you know, they got to kill time today.
Yeah.
Spring break.
And I'm like, oh, yeah, duty calls.
Gotta go to a brewery, jerk around.
Got to read up on Afro, man.
But it's a great place, man.
And I feel like there's a lot of, there's just a lot of, in the last 15 to 20 years,
whether it's like restaurants or there's just, I think there's just more cool shit to do
with your kids than there used to be.
Yeah.
Like that land has been there forever.
And now they're like, what if?
This is like the joys of capitalism.
Like we got this land.
People want to enjoy the land.
And you had the idea.
Let's figure out a way to make money on it.
You know?
Let's make it easy to go camping and have a bathroom.
You know?
Like it's what you would do, frankly.
Like it's not uncomfortable.
Yeah.
You can step outside and be in nature, but you don't have to.
Yeah.
Great time.
Yeah.
We had a QBR.
while I was gone.
That was great.
You were on it?
Yeah.
It was fun times.
Yeah, we said a lot regarding the summer event.
We ruled out little people wrestling.
So a couple nights ago, my wife actually had whatever.
I think it was a book club because I was telling Blake, she told me, you'll have to tell
me about your wife.
Does she, what does it, Sparks Notes?
What's it called?
Spark notes.
Spark notes.
My wife will spark notes a book so she can participate at book club.
It's just modern day cliff notes.
Yeah.
It's the same thing.
Yeah.
But she'll do that and not read a book.
And she's like, yeah, it wasn't capturing me.
So I spark noted it the day before a book club and then went to book club.
I definitely put that below audiobook.
But I think if you're, if.
the purpose is to sort of engage with other people about the topic and maybe learn something
about it, I think it's better than showing up. I think people show up with no knowledge
are bad people. I think you should stay home. If you can't participate at all, because if somebody
shows up to drink and talk. I know, but you should know what's up with the book if everyone else does.
Yeah, at least she's giving it that. But what if you admit it? I didn't read it. I'm here to hang out.
I don't know if she admitted it to them. That's what I'm saying, but the person who's reading
Spark Notes is showing up like they read the book.
Right.
That's disdemeanor.
And getting in arguments.
Yeah.
No, actually, he meant this.
No, but I wanted to say that.
That's just saying that.
That's a fantastic point.
Then when I was leaving today, she's like, oh, yeah, I forgot to tell you I'm going on with
Jennifer tonight.
I'm like, oh, you know, oh, you're going to have to eat without me.
Oh, man.
Yeah, I know.
But inevitably when your wife goes out to a book club or out with Jennifer or whatever,
it is.
A couple false idols.
A couple of a little drinky in the bloodstream,
and then perhaps they are ready for a little...
What's going on?
What do you got there in your pants?
Yeah.
You have to be ready to perform at that moment,
and that's where Game Day men's health comes in.
Boom!
This guy's just shooting arrows.
Which is what you'll be shooting.
If you're not hooking up with Game Day men's health,
gameday.com.
What if you're not really?
ready? What if you're not prepared? What if you're Drew Henson over there on the sideline? Like,
what? Oh, I got to go in. Like, you know, you got to be ready. Tom Brady. Do you want to be Tom Brady
or Drew Henson? Yeah, proper planning leads to proper execution at gameday.dumzone.com. I'm on,
I just started my little peptide run for my healing. And I lifted a car this morning, actually,
with my broken arm. Is it helping the bone thing? I really do feel like it is. I'm about
It's a bad ass scar.
Thank you.
Look at that.
Have you seen it?
Yeah, it's pretty sick.
He didn't have to tattoo stitches like it's a baseball.
Yeah, I did.
And it Rawlings on top of it.
But Game Day is a big part of my life.

Please do yourself a favor.
Check out game day men's health.
Does she want to go check it out?
Yeah.
Here.
What?
Nothing.
Okay, well, if it was just visual, I wouldn't have commented, but it was audio, so...
Oh, I didn't know.
Oh, okay, you got that.
All right.
Yeah, sorry.
Sorry about that.
Yeah, we've got secret shit going on over here.
I have a quick, just overheard my wife doing some calls story from the trip.
Some guy told my wife, I'm kind of a digital nomad now.
I just thought that was certainly why Hillary lost.
The internet is, in fact, like, what do you have?
A VPN would be like a digital nomad.
It's the internet.
What is he?
Yeah, what are we saying that?
He means he, like, works online and can move anywhere.
But, like, that's just a nomad.
Like, the internet enables, like, I just wanted to punch.
Punch the phone.
Like, there's no, you don't attach why you're a nomad to.
No, I mean, yeah, you're moving physically.
Like, that makes you nomadic.
I think you're a digital home ad.
Yeah.
Can we be a nomads?
Yeah.
We can't.
We're moving the show to New Bronvils.
I mean, we could do the show from Denver, right?
Just in perpetuity.
Yeah.
And not tell anybody?
Yeah.
Just like...
Come down for the summer event.
In the Rangers game.
I don't know.
Whenever we started the show was...
Just say we're at...
Is this too much for Jalen Wattle?
I think people would be like a little confused.
It's a good question about Jalen Waddle.
Would you have traded a first rounder for Jailen Waddle?
Oh, man.
Probably not.
Probably not.
What has he got?
Two years cost control left or one?
I thought it was two.
You probably don't, but I guess the question would be,
this is very simple,
but if you were like, hey, you could draft a guy
who's as good as Jalen Waddle is right now.
imagine how good that guy would be in college right now
but you only get him for two years
at that number and you probably do that
right yeah I guess that's why they did that huh
but the downside of it obviously is when you bake in
the economics of the NFL only having a guy for two years
and then having to pay him I mean the franchise tag on a receiver
or the fifth year option will be
30 million dollars before long
long, right?
So it's really, do you think in a couple years,
do you think he's a guy that you'll want to do that with?
And maybe he is.
Maybe if he becomes a one, he will be.
Yeah, I guess I just haven't been paying enough tension to jail a model.
To think that he was worth that.
I mean, just from what fantasy football tells you, he's heard a lot.
Yeah.
And that could be Tua getting him killed.
Who knows?
But, yeah, he's a little receiver.
That's some sportsy stuff.
We also have a Today in Twitter that's pretty sporty, so let's take a look at that.
The Dumzel presents Today and Twitter.
This has to do with the...
Dallas Wings?
Not the wings, but they're back.
They're not only back.
They have news.
Do you see that?
Is it the WNBA in general news?
They're playing at the AAC next year.
The whole year?
I guess so.
I swear I saw that news.
they would have to tarp the upper deck.
Yeah.
Or just have it look very sparse.
Yeah.
Right?
They don't get 5,000 people at a game, do they?
I bet you they do.
I bet you they do.
I'm betting it's under.
I think there was a page bump.
That's what I'm saying.
Page and just the recent rising tie to the whole league.
Yeah, where the whole league was athlete of the year?
Yes.
One year.
Okay, league average last year.
the Dallas wings themselves average under 5,000.
Go.
How about I meet you in the middle?
72, just over 7200.
League average is about 11,000.
They are the second lowest attended,
second lowest attended team.
In the entire league out of all those teams.
But they are steadily climbing,
just like the whole league is.
I mean, dude, Golden State led the league last year.
was their debut season at 18,000,
but Indiana is at 17,000 the last two seasons.
Do they do it like college basketball where they do it before the Golden State Warriors game
and they count those fans?
Like it's JV?
Isn't that how they do college basketball girls?
No.
They did when I was there.
Really?
No.
They do for high school.
Yeah, they'll have the high school game.
Okay, maybe I'm just thinking of the girls high school.
Yeah, girls basketball.
I swear to guys.
Women's basketball in college is a big enough deal now that there's people.
who like really care.
I swear to God, when I was there, they didn't.
Because they had like a 15,000 seat stadium
that wouldn't, they wouldn't get a thousand people at a game.
Maybe a non-conference.
T.C. will do that where the women's and men will play on the same day,
but typically not. You're not playing a conference game back to back.
They got their CBA done.
Thank God.
Did they win?
I don't know. Everybody's posing it as a win.
Good.
That's what you want it.
They get 20% of,
Of BRI?
The revenues or something.
That's a story I don't understand.
Like, I don't, I don't understand how one league.
It must just be that the overhead is so much that, like, a new league can't afford.
Because in the real, the real league, the men's leagues, it's like 48 to 50% goes to the players of basketball-related revenue or whatever, or income revenue, whatever they call it.
20% is nothing, like, comparatively.
And it must just be that the league has a lot more money that needs to be put into it to advance it or something.
I was reading, you know, very little I was reading about it, but it had something to do with the,
they're working in franchise value as part of that.
So it's not the same as the NBA is doing it.
Okay.
You know, they're trying to get their salaries up by juicing the numbers a little bit.
I don't know.
And quite frankly, I don't think I care.
You know, I don't think I care.
This is an interesting thing to talk to you about because you had girls who were to different degrees like athletically interested, but they were athletically interested and they were at no point interested in women's basketball.
It didn't seem like.
Yeah, no, my older girl for sure, really into sports.
we went to a San Antonio
what are they called?
Silver Spurs?
Silver Spurs might have been the dancers
but it was whoever Becky Hammond played for.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Becky Hammond was playing that night.
Yeah.
And so we went to a game.
They came down there, the Silver Stars.
They went down there for training camp,
Cowboys Training Camp, one year.
and so yeah we went to a game one night and my daughter
I mean they had fun at the game because they had fun at
they will have fun at any game
it was flannel night
they were giving away a free flannel to the first 5,000
wow that's really incredible
ladies we had just messed
yeah the night before was berber carpet
night
do they ever have anything for the lipstick
like did they ever have I don't know
we were just there on this one
Is it only particular
They gave away
Home standard
They gave away Adidas slides
But yeah
And then we'd go to Mavs games and stuff
But the point is that you were saying
Never an inch of it
Like hey I want to watch some of it on TV
I want to follow it at all
And see that's what's weird
Because it's just not that good
I like it more than you do
And that is not virtue signaling
I think the sport has gotten better
I think all women's
I think it's like everything
Yeah better
Athletes have gotten better, so have female.
The product to me is just more watchable.
Don't watch it.
Don't have time.
But when I do, I'm not as disgusted by it as I was 20 years ago.
But I've noticed there are little indications with my daughter that she does care about, like, representation.
And I know that sounds weird, but she'll ask me things like, do girls do that?
Or is there a famous girl that does that?
or who's the, it's weird, because I don't think she's like into women's sports by any means.
She's like seven and a half.
But I just wonder if like if there is a place for like the WNBA to be able to stay drawing
11 to 15,000 a night in a 12 team league, if women would actually, by the time my daughter's
like 17 or the age your daughter was, give a shit about it.
Because like it feels like that's what they need for it to work.
is more women.
But who knows?
Yeah.
No, here's the thing I wanted to show you.
From TIT.
Today in Twitter, it was Miami of Ohio
beat SMU yesterday
to get into the big dance.
I hate to derail you again,
but I had a gummy thought on my trip,
which is that they should play those games
at midnight Sunday night.
So there's about 12 teams on standby.
That's cool.
And they find out at like,
5 p.m. They probably played that day.
That you have to play that night?
Yeah.
And we're putting it on TV and it's going to do huge numbers as just these.
This gets you into the tournament.
Basketball team because it's the first four, right?
It's a gimmick.
Yeah.
So it's Miami of Ohio, I think, was 31 and 1, but they had maybe one win against a, was
even a ranked team or something.
I don't know.
Their record was very suspect.
So somehow they're 31 and 1.
yet they're, you know, in the play-in thing.
And they beat SMU, and you know how SMU is.
They're always yelling about how great things are,
and then they have something like this happen to them.
So anyway, did I watch the game?
What are you kidding me?
But I did see this.
I thought this was funny.
So when a SMU player is shooting a free throw, this would happen.
The Miami University,
swim team would run down in their speedos behind the basket.
Wow.
To jump up and down and cheer and then you get a missed free throw.
Innovative and electric.
Because I've told you many times,
my idea for a home field advantage, a home court advantage,
is complete silence from the crowd.
I think that would be way better than holding up the Acme bricks.
Because they're so used to everything.
that you can't throw them off.
Yeah, I mean, there are people that push back on that and say, like, in practice, it's quiet.
Is it?
But I don't know.
In an NBA practice, it's not.
It's pretty loud.
It's like unnervingly loud.
But maybe when you're out there at midnight.
Well, I like pushing back on it without actually trying it.
So let's do a, we need a test.
We need a placebo.
We need a.
That's great, though.
But that is great because it's so different and shocking.
I don't know that I've ever seen.
And you're probably laughing at the line.
And this is just giving context for the video.
It is a swim team.
These are all white men.
These are all relatively ripped white men.
Yeah, as white as you can.
And they're wearing red speedos,
and they're all going, like,
basketball fan maniacal.
And it's one of the scariest images I've ever seen.
They're wearing the swim caps.
You've never seen that many swimmers together yelling before.
They don't ever have.
Well, not outside of a pool.
Yeah.
You know, like they're in a basketball arena.
So they're all hiding kind of.
of up in the
that's great
the concourse
and then they run down
you know they won't get tired
it's not like the fat guy
with his shirt off
who has to
reserve energy
yeah so there's a little
today and Twitter for you
and that
was today in Twitter

or you should play it earlier rather to shift away.
You're right.
It is my fault.
Trying to get better.
Having a little trouble today, though, because...
Oh, yeah, I like that.
As I do have the audio in front of me, I didn't bring all my printed papers,
so now I have to toggle back.
You don't understand what I'm going through.
It's a toggle back between windows.
Your wife thinks she has a tough day.
watching the kids.
So many tabs.
This is horror.
Look at all the tabs.
A couple of small sports stories, and then we have a big story to get into.
Oh, we got Viewer Mail Day.
Oh, and I forgot to tell you about this.
Blake gave me this.
Somebody else mailed me one as well.
So if you want to read it.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, I know what this is going to be.
Yeah, for sure.
On Becoming a Woman.
Yes.
Isn't the cover everything you thought it would be?
Yes, it's exactly that central casting book material there.
The book that my mom had to, that's just how my mom learned about boys and periods and whatnot back in the,
yeah, in 1960s, I guess this would be.
Let me paint a picture for the listener who can't see the book.
It is a 50-style, 50-style illustration of a woman.
He's shown me.
And then in the background, as the woman is looking at,
the camera with a kind of a demure look on her face,
there are two men in the background sitting on a park bench,
sort of ogling on her so as to say,
yes, become a woman with me.
It's really creepy.
Really creepy.
No, it's just the way it is.
Yeah.
Not creepy at all.
A couple of quickies.
I have the Mets.
have announced
that they are going to do
they were introducing something that I assumed
was already out there.
Now, you weren't a baseball nerd, right?
No, more of a football, football nerd.
I could probably remember the guy in football way better.
Do you ever listen to a game
while at a game?
I've done that, yeah, because my dad
and my dad's friends would do it, and I thought it was cool.
We had the over the year.
My dad had the, you know, over the ear with an antenna on it.
Oh, wow.
He would wear that in game.
It's finding over-the-air radio stations.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This is a no-delayed digital radio broadcast for fans attending games at City Field.
It says they're aiming to synchronize the in-stadium experience with live play-by-play commentary.
I'm surprised this has just never been done before.
because typically they say there's a 30 to 90 second delay
if you're listening to like the game on MLB.com or something.
Yeah.
And apparently a lot of college broadcasts
are already kind of doing this thing.
Interesting.
Partnering with sports bug to bring real-time radio audio
to the ballpark will transform how fans connect with the game.
According to some guy with the Mets,
by syncing the atmosphere.
and energy of watching a game at City Field
with the iconic voices of Mets Radio on Odyssey,
we're delivering a more immersive and connective experience to our fans.
So when I was doing that as a kid, too,
I didn't know I was more immersive.
You were immersed.
And connected.
Yeah.
Well, look at you now.
I thought I was watching the game and then kind of hearing like,
what happened there?
Oh, okay.
That's what I was trying to do, just know what's going on.
Yeah.
Out in the bleachers.
But, I mean, dude, I got to the point where,
when I go to a football game,
I'll keep the game up on YouTube TV on my phone.
And I'll watch replays on my phone.
And I do it whenever we're watching the game at our house.
That's why I hate watching football at a stadium.
Yeah, it's very tricky.
You've got to know what have,
you break down that play afterwards.
But with baseball, though,
I feel like it's pretty important if you care about pitching,
which when I was more into baseball,
I was fascinated by how Buzz could just,
with his eye be like
calling out of
you.
It's just a
he missed with the slider
by about an inch
there
like his grip
was and I'm like
dude how did you
so to me
that's the value
of the baseball
broadcast
and you have
I mean
I'll just speak
for myself
like we're in
AA
I have no chance
of doing that live
at a baseball game
I don't care
if I was sitting
behind home plate
I don't have
that sort of
like institutional
knowledge so
baseball
and the other thing
the other one too
that I would think would be great.
And it's because I used to board off the games would be hockey.
Because we used to kill the ticket stream.
I believe that was like an NHL rights thing.
But, you know, it's on and the break in the arena.
The tickets intermission show and pre and post game shows.
So, you know, they're getting the radio feed.
But hockey just having a play-by-play guy rules.
You got to have the local play-by-play piped into the
bathroom.
Oh, that's a big deal.
Some places don't.
That's a big deal, man.
Yeah.
We do that at Argyle.
Even the Argyle bathroom?
We have it running through the concession stand in the bathrooms and stuff, yeah.
Does we mean because you did it?
Yeah.
Because I think it's cool.
It's not like some other guy figured that out.
We also have the in stadium delay-free call because the two people that bring an old-time
Walkman that want to listen to the game can.
Super service.
And I don't know.
If you're a fringe guy and you don't.
know every player's name or stats or where they're going.
I think it's a nice accompanying.
It's a company.
How many D1 teams are there?
In which?
110 or something?
Football?
I don't know.
I'm just saying...
Or basketball, there's like three times as many, right?
Okay, let's say there's 300.
I'm just saying the Argyll...
Right, yeah, it's 99th percentile shit, for sure.
High school has better in-game stuff than...
I'm going to say over 50%.
So, you're just...
You're saying that like, hold on, there's like a small operation and it is able to produce
sort of a better product with better equipment, just overall better produced and like a larger
operation would be able to do.
Maybe you're just cutting out some of the overhead or something.
I don't know.
One more sports story for you.
The NFL is talking rules changes right now.
I know you like that.
I love it.
and they will tell you, like, who proposed the rule changes.
I kind of like that.
Yeah.
Like, last year, Green Bay proposed Ban the Tush Push.
Yeah.
And I guess it got pretty close to being passed.
But this year, no one reproposed that.
That's weird.
It wasn't as successful, right?
Yeah, that's true.
So is that all its recency bias?
No, I don't.
don't think it's recency bias. I think it is, this is the way that policy works. So they,
they bring it up and they're like, I hate this, because what about this, and what about this? And
then they talk about it and they say, well, what if we just agree to really make that a point
of emphasis? A word you hear in the first two weeks of every sports season. Also, if they bring it back
up, don't you think the rest of the owners are like, damn, this didn't pass, let it go. I would think
that, but some stuff does come back up.
Like the kickoff thing and the, dude, I swear to you, I should have, if I would have
known, I would have looked this up.
I think the Chiefs proposed the fourth down 15-yard thing twice.
There was a very XFL-type idea that you could, after a touchdown, go for a fourth-down,
like a fourth and 15.
That was for instead of an outside kick, right?
Correct.
Yeah.
And they're like, well.
Yeah, we're the Chiefs.
We can score, get 15 yards at any point.
Yeah, that probably was voted down pretty easily.
Yeah, but what I'm saying is I think they put, like they kept trying or there's some of
them that have come up more than once.
They did try twice.
Yeah, I guess I think about the reason I think you should keep trying.
Okay, the reason I think you shouldn't keep trying is like you said, Blake, and that's how
we get with even kind of good things we have in our pipeline for the show.
It's like, well, stop bringing it up because it keeps not making the show.
maybe it's just actually not good.
But I also think, who was it, Andrew Jones or somebody who got 5% of the Hall of Fame vote in his first year eligible?
And seven years later, now all of a sudden, 75% of the voters think he's a Hall of Fame.
Like, if you keep doing it every year, maybe you'll keep thinking about it.
I don't know.
I thought this was funny, though.
The proposal by the Browns.
The Browns.
So apparently you're only allowed to trade first round picks three years into the future.
Ah, yeah.
The Browns want it to be five years.
Like they can't, they don't understand this rule is to save you.
We are trying to help you.
Ted Steppian is entering the league and saying,
I want to trade more first round picks.
Yes.
So if you don't know, there is a.
rule in the NBA, it's the Cavs owner?
Yes, he was in the early 80s, and I think there's a very big Mavericks component here.
Yeah, because they were, so you may have to explain that part to me, but the rule is you
can't trade consecutive first-round picks in the NBA.
You can put protections and swaps in the middle, but you can't trade back-to-back first-round
picks because owners, I don't know, almost like in a private equity ownership type way, could
They will come in and just be like,
yeah, I'm just going to trade my next 10 first round picks for ex-player.
They're protecting them from ruining the franchise.
They're protecting competitive balance by not having a team that is just fucked, basically, you know?
And that's what Ted Steppian did.
Boy, I'll have to look to see the exact what he did.
But I remember part of it was trading, you know, the number one overall pick, like, to the Mavs.
Excuse me.
Yeah, to the Mavs for, I don't know what.
You know, just the thing is he was a new owner.
And you know how it is maybe in a fantasy league.
If you got a new player or something, you know, hey, I'm going to start.
Let's just, we're going to try and figure it out.
Who are you?
So let's just start tossing some trade offers at you.
But the NFL or whoever.
Hey, look at this guy.
He averaged 14 points last year.
Why don't you just give us that number one draft pick?
Yeah.
But for the reason that they do it, it's because.
that horniness will lead to having a team
with like no players that can play.
You know, they don't want to have,
like when you go to this city,
that's tank, that could be tanking, right?
So they want to preserve competitive balance.
The Browns are run in one of the,
this is like probably like what being Catholic is like
when you see some news and you're like,
or Twiggy on a car chase.
The fact that the Browns are like
the most analytically inclined organization
in all of pro sports
or among them,
it's not great for my platform.
Yeah, but you got to listen to those people.
That's true, but that's always really hard to...
Paul DiPodesta was pounding the table for...
Deshaun Watson was a definite, though,
and I believe that was evidence by the fact
that after it blew up in their faces,
the owner extended the GM.
Yeah, well, that's...
Yeah.
So that's what I'm saying is just, you're right,
but...
That's what, Andrew Barry, Deep Podesta was there, whatever guy.
Nobody ever gets that.
chance to, you know, the graveyard is littered with guys who were like, they didn't listen
to me. I had the right ideas. I don't know. So it's not surprising to me that they're like,
hey, you know, we could get creative. The more picks we can trade. And really, they don't want
to trade them. They want to acquire them. They want to be able to go to a team and say, hey, you could
give us something for five years from. Yeah, you want this guy who won't even be in the league.
the Browns say that the changes would lead to a more active trade market
and greater roster flexibility.
I feel like the trade market has become much more active in the last.
Yeah, I don't have pinned to paper on it, but that definitely seems true.
Like the NBAification of the NFL, I mean, the Jalen Waddle thing.
In a normal year, that would be like maybe the biggest trade in the off season.
Is it because the money is so high?
that's a good, that's probably it, right?
Like, and that's sort of what it is in the NBA, too.
The idea you can't, the idea that you can't pay one guy too much is becoming more common, seemingly in every sport.
But Micah's the perfect test case, right?
It's just I'm not going, there's half the league probably that says, I simply won't pay a guy who doesn't play quarterback that much money, no matter what.
I did a different way of thinking about how much the owners make today.
Maybe this is Gummy thought too,
but it was like he do Turkleu's birthday
or somebody like that.
Somebody who got an obscene amount of money.
Yeah, and this happens all the time, though.
I'll check guys like, oh, I remember that guy, kind of.
What did he make?
91 million over his career.
Chris Kamen?
For that guy?
Oh, my gosh.
Chris Kamen probably did better than that.
Right?
It's just like, and this guy was never one of the top five.
players on his team, I would say.
I don't know.
The point is, like, all these people were making this much money.
What did Mark Cuban really make at the end of it all?
You know, if you just say, if a player's one year's roster is making whatever it is,
the salary cap of the NFL, isn't it like $480 million?
No, it's not that much, but it's a lot.
It's going to be up to, like, $350 or $1.50.
or 330 or something.
$3.50.
Well, that means the owners are making that plus because then they also make stadium money
and concessions.
Yeah, and I know sometimes I bet Cuban would retort, you know, that he never really made
money on the maps because of the luxury tax.
And I'd be interested in seeing how that actually shakes out.
But when you say, I wonder how much money he made in the end.
Like, I know he made $4.5 billion and he bought the team for...
$250 million.
Yeah, so I think he made like $4.2 billion.
billion, at least, you know?
Even, so that's what they try to say is like, we're not making any money on this deal.
Meanwhile, the valuation of your asset seemingly doubles every couple years.
Lucas balling.
Dude.
Last night, hurt.
Last night?
What about the two nights ago?
Was that the game winner?
Or was that three nights?
I don't know.
Whatever it is.
I thought last night he was just killing Houston down to the first.
stretch.
Oh, yeah.
LeBron helped out.
No, I thought you were talking about the Nuggets game winner a few days ago.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, he had another unbelievable fourth quarter where no matter what defense the Rockets
threw at him, he was either throwing a lob to Hachimura or LeBron or hitting a step back
and yelling out the crowd.
Aitn's been playing well.
Dude, for all, it's really funny.
I guess this is Lakers.
Lakers are like the Cowboys, right?
Yeah.
All I see really is negativity about the Lakers.
Luca doesn't play enough defense.
He's lazy.
LeBron doesn't want to be there.
They need to move on.
They can't play the three of them together.
Like, AR, LeBron are terrible together.
Then you look at the standing.
They're going to host the playoff series.
Third right now.
Three C.
Like nobody's catching Oklahoma City,
but the rest of the West is just kind of there.
And you tell me in a playoff series?
That's the whole thing.
If you got a guy like Luca in a playoff series,
you could even beat Oklahoma City.
Yeah.
Yeah.
If he's healthy, I would still bet on him to win every series he plays in.
That's why you get a chance against Boston that year.
Sure.
There's one guy you know is showing up.
Maybe not Kyrie.
Maybe not whoever, but...
L.A. broke up our boys' family, though.
Dude.
I hate thinking about that because I feel like it's kind of true.
It is true.
I feel like that wouldn't have happened here.
No.
Absolutely not.
He was safer here.
You protect him.
Man, you brought up Luke?
I wasn't even going to bring up Luca today.
Well, once a month when he's averaging 40 over the last 10 or 12 days or something,
I feel like it's maybe more on that in the underdog spot.
Hammer the higher.
I wonder if he'll never win the MVP just because of, well, maybe they got to win a title before him to.
He'll win at least one retroactive MVP.
He already deserves one.
Right.
the only guy who ever really got screwed in my mind on MVP's was Kobe.
Most guys get their awards if they deserve them, even if they'd get them screwed.
Because Steve Nash won back one, come on, dude.
Those are...
Okay, I didn't even think, I didn't remember it was Steve Nash.
Don't even correct me on the timeline, but I feel like it was post-rape
and everybody was still mad at Kobe, and it was like, Steve Nash had this redemption story.
He was cool shit.
Seven seconds or less was like a big deal.
Kobe was...
He's the worst two-time MVP winner.
I think that's right.
But if you're Luca, you'll get yours.
You just may get it in a year that you shouldn't have, and then you won't in a year you should have.
Because I thought I've also read that Russell Westbrook's MVP was very undeserved.
Once you look at the numbers, it was just that he averaged a triple double and everybody
went out.
That was it at the time.
It's a litmus test for how you look at basketball in many ways.
What you mean?
Well, it was pretty obvious he was stat hunting and padding.
Yeah.
But you also kind of get accused of being a wet blanket if you are not that impressed by it.
Oh, I was quite impressed.
But yeah.
And also everyone likes him.
Oh, yeah.
He's so well liked.
Yeah.
Cool media guy.
Do you want to do viewer mail now or are outside of the news news story of the day?
Let's start with viewer mail.
And then we'll just see what our time is like.
One way or another, we're spending a lot of time on Afro Man today.
What if we make viewer mail brought to us by Fair Lease,
when you don't know what to do about a car?
Because car stuff is hard.
Fairlease.org is the web seat.
Yeah.
He's the web seat.
And the phone number is 972-705-4815.
Connor or Nick are contacts out there at Fairlease.
Met with these dudes a couple times.
And they're here to help you.
Whatever your car situation is, you're upside down.
lease.
D&M.
We've had some people
who were with D&M
who got bought out of leases.
They work,
fair lease,
not work with.
They are backed
by the credit union
to Texas.
That means they can
give you a better rate.
They're not going back
to call the bank.
Their rate is the
community bank rate.
They're going to work with you,
maybe a little more flexible
on your credit history.
Also big in the commercial game.
So if you're,
I don't know,
what was Harry and Lloyd's
business called?
Muttcuts?
Like if you're getting into that game
You need a couple vans.
Fair lease, they will find those vans for you.
They were telling me that day, like, hey, we got this car here from halfway across the country yesterday.
Name the kind of car you like.
You're going to get it.
And you're going to be dealt with Fairlease.
Fairlease.org, click request a quote, and tell them the dumb zone sent you or call
972-705-4815.
Fair lease, when you don't know what to do about a car, because car stuff is hard.
But not with Fairlease.
Please, you don't need a dealership, baby.
All right.
Oh, yeah, wait a minute, Uncle Hot Me.
Oh, yeah.
I got a toggle.
Terrible.
Let's click back over here.
I got a couple quick hities here.
Nathan, has anyone thought about putting Sean Rab on the Nancy Guthrie case?
You know?
We need Sean Rab on the show.
You got me, Blake?
Yeah.
I just put this on my sheet, on my thing to just stay up at all times.
We're here today.
What is this?
This is his theme music.
This is when he's talking to the cops, like, all right, give me the details.
What did these two Neer-do- Wells do?
All right, Sean, we've got a tattoo shop here, got broken into.
They stole about $2,500 in cash.
All right, now we're going to call 817.
Talk to Sergeant Austin.
It's electric.
I'm telling you.
It's a great show.
heard from a listener named Brian.
I like hearing from listeners.
Well, it's great second.
Excuse me.
If you are in the dating game and you're like my age, send me your emails.
Because like my wife and married women in general or hitched up women, boyfriend, whatever,
there's nothing they love doing more than swiping through their single friend stuff.
You ever seen a group of relationship women sit down with a couple of things?
They're like, oh, disgusting, disgusting, you know.
And then they get to time.
stories about it.
It's horrible.
I don't get those stories anymore because most of my boys are hemmed up.
But Brian sent me an email that was interesting about he was at a dance, like a dance class
type situation, started talking to an older lady.
And he said he's running to this before.
It's the fake wedding ring.
Fake.
Like they have a ring on and you're like, oh.
Ladies will wear a fake wedding ring?
Yeah.
Like to keep away the riff.
wrath.
And I guess like, how do they ever hook up?
I guess like if you are kind of vibing the guy, then at that point be like, oh, like, so you're married or something?
And then they're like, no.
But I'm just trying to think of a situation where a male whatever.
Ugh, disgusting.
Yeah, oh, no.
You're married.
I'm sorry.
That's why, yes, that's why I guess you can do it as a lady because the guy doesn't care that he's seeing.
that wedding ring.
Yeah.
He's going for it anyway.
Yeah.
Whereas if a guy was to pull that off,
you know, ladies would be like,
oh, I shouldn't go after him.
He's married.
Not the cool ladies, though.
Dr. Garrett had one for Dan.
Dear, funny female anatomy fellow.
This is a medically related movie trope.
When someone gets shot,
the first thing that they try to do
is, quote, get the bullet out.
Getting the bullet out from a gunshot wound
does nothing for the patient.
Trying to dig out the bullet
causes more damage.
that is one you always see.
Like they got the foreseps or whatever they are.
Yeah.
Got a couple other movie things.
Me too.
Go ahead.
Mine chooses to remain anonymous.
There are two things.
Movie inaccuracies I have to get off my chest.
I would like to remain anonymous for obvious reasons.
First is cocaine usage.
When you watch a movie like The Wolf of Woller,
Wall Street, the amount of cocaine these people are doing is astronomical. It would kill them.
Yeah, that's very true. Because it doesn't look that dramatic. If you do like an actual bump
of cocaine, it's not that. And I actually contend most people when they do it, you die. And then it flows
up in the air like you're LeBron. Also, like anybody who has cocaine, they're not like being
free and easy with it. Like, dude.
Hiding it. Costs a lot of money. You don't know on the ground. Like, I think I got it.
We're not wasting any of that.
Yeah, they say it's grossly overdone,
has the potential to kill newbies with misinformation.
Do your drugs slow, kids.
Yeah.
I mean, drugs in movies.
Yeah.
I'm not one with a lot of cocaine experience,
but, you know,
I've always thought pot,
and that probably started with Reefer Madness, right?
Yeah.
Because you're trying to depict it,
you can't show anything positive about it at all.
Yeah.
Can't show that it reduces some pain.
Their second one,
Orgies.
Okay.
They are never as amped up as they are depicted.
Far less girl-on-girl than Hollywood would have you imagine,
and people are more reserved about it than they would have you believe.
But they're at an orgy.
It's mostly touching, groping, flirting, intimate stuff,
but as someone who's attended quite a few,
I can assure you that people don't have open-air sex
or have their fetishes out for everyone to see.
I'm going to talk to a guy who's been to quite a few orgies.
Yeah.
This says, I'm happy to answer any questions or relationships.
to this topic as a woman.
Oh, because I was going to say, if it was a dude, I feel like I know who it is.
But now I want to talk to.
Yeah.
Could we interview her and change her voice or something?
Yeah, sure.
Boy, that'd be great.
I mean, I guess that makes sense.
You know, not everything's.
Could I interview her like, I just have her over in the den?
Well, we should talk.
Just her and I.
But honestly, though, that sounds.
She doesn't sound like she's into one-on-one thing, though.
That sounds, like, really gay.
It doesn't sound like, oh, it's most.
just cuddling, flirting.
Like, it's the parts you don't want to do.
Yeah, right.
Like, she's saying it's actually, you know,
everyone just kind of bonding and like,
oh, what do you, like, the stuff that you...
You don't want to cuddle with your bros?
Uh, no.
I mean, I'm a hugger, but I don't want to cuddle
somebody else.
No, I don't...
I don't know.
Like, it sounds like there's a lot of talking.
Yeah, an orgy would probably
really be bad.
Like, it's probably, like, NPR-type people,
it sounds like...
Can you be like the guy in the pool that wants to keep his shirt on?
Can I keep my shirt on?
I just want to watch.
My feet are cold.
I got to wear my socks.
Yeah, I mean, they can't shame you.
What if you, like, wear little nipple tassels because it makes you feel cute?
Now they're like, oh, fucking weirdo.
No, we're not an orgy.
You can do whatever you want.
You're right.
I bet you there is a lot of judgment.
There had, I...
And that's why I don't want to go.
That's right.
That's exactly right.
other TV movie things
Oh Shane and Colleyville says
I really want to be in an extremely tense situation
Look over at someone else in the room
Give them the slightest of head nods
And then they jump into action
Because that was a signal to do something drastic
They could start shooting, throw a knife at someone
Or reveal that as of that morning
I own the controlling shares of the company
I don't care
Yeah
I just want a barely perceivable head nod
to start some dramatic occurrence.
That is in movies.
And then here's another one, movie arguments.
Usually with the girlfriend, tempers are flaring.
They're both saying horrible things.
And one of them is like, hey, let's calm down.
Then everything kind of stops and they get over it.
In our relationship, we need three days of passive-aggressive behavior
before we're even sniffing a resolution.
Right.
Yeah, bring up something from the past.
Been holding on to that one for a while.
It was last time you talked to him.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't know.
Everyone should go to rehab.
That's how they teach you to fight.
That's how they teach you to lose the fight, right?
Hey, come back later.
Take a walk.
It's not a fishing scam.
It actually will get better.
Let your cortisol levels drop a little bit.
James has a protein ice cream.
Have we had this one?
Rocky Lode?
Bluebell's Rocky Lode?
Very solid.
Let's see here.
I saw a couple of these myself.
These are the text dot signs, Clayton,
from listener Clayton.
Man, text dot was wild in this weekend
because I saw one that was like,
uh,
pump the spring brakes.
B, R, A, K, E-E-E-S.
And another one that was something,
I think it might have been,
uh,
drive sober,
not shake it or stirred.
And then these two.
This was supposed to stop.
I know.
Uh, Clayton,
emailed, you know, if you're a normal person who's not an elementary school or works at a bar,
you don't know that it's just St. Patrick's Day.
I said, I was driving in Houston this morning, saw this sign, and listened to the dumb zone.
So at first I was trying to figure out what a shamrock alert was because the sign, one of the signs says like,
Shamrock Alert, slow down, drive safe.
McDonald's shake.
Yeah.
And then the other one, I wish you drive safely, happy St. Paddy's.
Irish. Oh, okay.
Racist.
Not.
Against who, Asians?
No New Year.
Rish you a happy New Year.
I don't think that it was signed by a Laotian man saying I wish you would drive so.
That's how I read it.
I got a couple people asking for our advice.
In fact, the subject line on this email from Jake and Austin was emergency question, need guidance.
It was all caps.
Oh, wow.
Emergency pod.
Flying to West Virginia for a business trip,
wife is traveling with me as a side vacation.
Bad bit.
Should we just stop there for a moment?
It's a horrible bit.
I took me a minute to recover from you saying you took your family to training camp earlier.
Well, my wife was going to visit her.
It was a long thing.
They always have a reason.
Yeah.
Trust me, dude.
My wife was very set on coming to California when we were out there.
Well, I will tell you this
I'm like, dude, Dan will curse.
They stayed at a different hotel.
Baller.
And different room, like they were in the room
and I'm like, I'm here for a pro athlete.
I'm here for work.
Training camp.
Yeah.
Okay, flying to West Virginia for a business trip,
wife traveling with me.
I got upgraded to first class.
Oh.
She did not.
And he gives three options for us to choose.
One, give her the opportunity.
upgraded seat.
Two, take the upgraded seat myself.
Three, turn down the upgrade.
Immediately removing that one.
Okay.
Yeah, I mean, I think obviously you give your woman the upgraded seat and you sit there and think about
getting jerked off later.
Like, we're being honest here.
It's just a matter.
Well, you don't care where you sit.
You're a man.
This is quid.
Women like to be comfortable.
You want to make out later.
I would like my pro quo later.
All right.
It's down here.
A lot of honesty there, yeah.
When's the last time she put it out?
Doubled up?
Yeah, that's a good quote.
Like, just in general?
Yeah.
Just put out in my dad.
Wait, what are we saying?
I think he's...
When's the last time she did something for you?
I think that's what he's trying to say.
Sexually?
Yeah.
Well, the point is your woman matters.
She wants to be comfortable.
It doesn't really make sense because you're probably bigger,
but this is how society's set up.
So, roll with it.
And it's West, so it's probably like a two-hour flight.
From here, West Virginia?
Yeah.
I would think that.
That feels longer, but I don't know.
No one does.
You give it a seat.
And then the other one is from Dustin.
I'm a long-time listener.
I know Dan is a bit of a germaphobe.
I remember him saying during COVID that he hoped handshakes went away forever.
So then every time I saw Dan after that, I would go in for a fist bump, but then Dan would go for a handshake.
Then it was very awkward and I felt like I was doing something wrong.
So I need to know, does Dan want a handshake or a fist bump when I see him?
This is from business lawyer Dustin.
Oh, wow.
I think I've seen a couple of these very unfortunate interactions.
Yeah, you end up grabbing the fist.
Right.
Like you're an emperor.
Then he feels like the asshole.
Yeah.
Right.
And you've got his fist in your hand.
Yeah.
Real power play.
I try to assimilate to society.
I'm trying.
And that's why, okay, I'll just shake hands.
You're a lawyer.
You're a man of respect.
Yeah, but you're famous.
True.
You're famous.
You're a bump guy.
That overrides?
I think so.
And also, you're like kind of, you know, this is opening, making your daughter's open,
making seems harsh.
Letting your daughter's open presents when you wake up at noon.
It's just bending the world your way.
Go for a bump.
And everybody knows I want a five.
and a hug.
Like we're checking into an NBA game.
Yeah, but often I'm like last in the group and everybody else is doing five and a hug.
Right now you're like, me.
And it's like, yeah.
It's the Obama.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Key and peel.
The Texit truck.
Clayton, we've been getting images of the Texit coin truck.
Got one from Tyler.
What's that?
Well, Texit coin was the, the cryptocurrency that got shut up.
shutdown that was being advertised.
What's the truck?
Well, there's a bunch of trucks all over the Metroplex.
I don't know how many there are, actually, but you see trucks wrapped, like to get you
involved, the future of money in Texas, Texacoin.
Oh, so they wrapped all these trucks and now they're driving around with them?
Yeah.
Yet.
So a couple listeners have sent me these photos, but the interesting part to me was it made
me want to know how hard is it to get those bad boys off.
Yeah.
So I looked into it.
Not easy.
It's incredibly hard.
They say that once you wrap
They say that once you want to do it
It will take several hours
It's straightforward but time consuming
requires patience to avoid damaging the heat
It is manageable for non-professionals
But it says you should pay someone
And it's about $800 an hour
Because the sun like
Bakes it onto the paint
So if you're doing the car wrap
You know like try to make sure that your business
is not a complete Ponzi scheme
that's going to be shut down within one year.
I don't know.
It just sucks.
It would suck to be,
we used to joke about,
like, the guy who would walk to the crowd,
or walk from the crowd to his car at a sporting event,
like wearing,
like a goofy, like Longhorn's hat or like his face painted,
you know, and you're like,
fuck, we lost.
Oh, yeah.
Now you're driving around scam truck,
and it's going to cost you $5,000 that you don't have
because your assets are frozen
to get the thing off your F-250 combat edition.
This is a very funny story to me.
We had a couple guys say they would wrap their car with a dumb zone thing.
We outlasted Texit.
Hey, good for us.
We may be doing this at a smaller scale,
but we're going to be doing this for a long time.
Do you know why?
Because we can't do anything else.
Yeah.
This will be here.
We don't know how to scam.
Yeah.
It took me about an hour to get the Justin Beaver back window decal off my car.
Oh, wow.
That was just the back window.
Yes, and that was just the back window.
Because you got to sit there and scrape it all the way.
Oh, yeah.
I don't know.
You guys have taken some L's, the three of you against me, many, many times.
It feels like most of the time.
But this toothbrushing thing is really, it's not going well for you.
Whether it's Travis from Community or whether it's Rosalie, who is our 80-year-old female listener,
who says that until that show, where she heard me,
that I do not rinse my mouth out after I brush my teeth, days before going to rehab.
I still knew that.
She said she looked it up, and it's the recommendation of all mouth scientists.
Let me hit the 15 second rewind.
So this 80-year-old is Googling, and she found that you were right?
Travis Gafford.
I've had a huge sweet tooth my whole life.
I used to get cavities all the time.
Once I stopped rinsing after brushing, I stopped getting cavities.
I didn't have a dentist tell me this until my mid-30s.
He, of course, included tons of research here.
Modern fluoride toothpaste is designed to leave a thin layer of fluoride on your teeth after brushing.
That helps your enamel, strengthen your teeth, protect against cavities.
Fluoride guy?
Probably wants it in our water, too.
Yeah, what else do you want?
I had my kids at birth injected with fluoride.
Just trying to control us all?
I wanted my daughter to have her autism, so I gave her fluoride.
And now I've been thinking about it.
I've been thinking about it every time I brush my teeth now since you guys, like, fronted me up about this.
And that is what I do.
I guess I spit out whatever's in there, but I don't put water and rinse.
Like I just brush my teeth.
If there's a little bit of extra, you spit, like, but this is the way to do it.
I've never had a cavity.
Have you?
Yes.
Have you?
Yes.
You didn't weigh in, so I'm not going to.
I just hate that feeling with the foam in your teeth and it's still.
Rinsing it out.
Yeah.
Like don't you rinse?
Do you rinse your mouth out after you eat, I don't know, popcorn?
What was it that Kobe said?
It'll probably be easy.
The Mamba mentality?
No.
I think I'd rather have a cavity.
Then that's your choice.
But I'm letting you know, you're wrong.
And shout out to the fact we have an 80-year-old female listener who emails me.
What's up?
Yeah, we should hook her up with the dude and the, uh...
Remember my daughter worked as a server at the old people home?
Oh, yeah.
And a guy there was a listener.
That was awesome.
Rosalie got really mad at me about my Santa story.
Yeah, she'll check you.
Yeah.
Which I've told her.
We need that.
We need a grandma.
Yeah.
You got any gummy thoughts?
Just because I want to make sure that you know that early bird gummies are, it's early bird CBD.com.
And they have a code there, dumb zone 20.
Oh, like no spaces there.
DumbZone 20.
You get 20% off on earlybird CBD.com.
If you previously use the code DZ20,
you can use this new one and get 20% off.
It has THC, 2.5 milligrams of natural THC,
also 12.5 of CBD in each gummy.
So it's the best CBD you're going to have.
Now if you get drug tested at work, quit.
We're going to go, well, either quit your job.
or don't use early bird gummies.
But you want to take the edge off after a tough day?
Maybe business Wednesday.
Maybe your buddy will call you and business Wednesday and be like, hey, you want to?
And I'm like, ah.
Actually, I've already saved 20%.
Which did happen last night.
So yeah, go to earlybird CBD.com.
Dumbzone 20.
We love you, early bird.
Uh, what was that?
Any particular gummy thought?
Oh, you know what?
I have a super quick one.
This is really half-baked.
Really half-baked.
But the other night, we, so we used to make fun of Donovan for doing this, and I think we
make fun of Dan's wife for doing it.
But I don't watch really any TV, but maybe 20 minutes a week, I'll be there with my wife.
Scrolling?
It's not bad.
Like, occasionally you're like, what if I just watched?
25 minutes of Bad Boys 2 on IFC.
Yeah.
And for those 20 minutes, you're like, God damn, this knocks.
It's the only time you would watch Bad Boys 2 if you're scrolling.
Right.
What am I going to, and I also don't really.
You're not going to grab it off your shelf.
It was in progress, so like it's already kicking ass, you know?
No, and you're trying to remember like a scene that I've, oh, yeah.
Okay, this is, I'll sit here for a little while.
Not bad.
You don't want 90 minutes of it.
No.
You just want 20.
Yeah, it was not bad.
You know, my wife's like, I've never really seen this.
I'm like, oh, it's great.
And I'm watching Will Smith, and I'm thinking, man, there was a time when I thought he was like the coolest person alive.
Yeah.
Like literally whenever I was like 12, 13 years old, my thought was, this is Frank Sinatra for me.
And I sort of long for a day where I knew a lot less about.
I long for a day where Kempspin didn't exist.
And I just thought of Will Smith and enjoy them for what you think they are.
His albums that I liked, because I was in junior high,
didn't know that they were not real rap music,
or whatever, people said.
I thought all of his movies ruled.
I thought he was a nice guy.
I didn't even know what Scientology was.
Do you think he invented rap?
I thought he was certainly on the forefront of, you know,
he'd been in a TV show.
He was in movies.
He'll never get better than this.
But seriously, when you're 12 or 13,
and especially if you're like a white kid.
He's right about parents, man.
They don't understand.
They don't know shit.
And now all I can think about is,
is his wife making him sit down on her Facebook show
and telling him that she had sex with their son's friend.
The fact that they're kids, I don't know what's going on there,
Scientology.
He fucking slapped Chris Rock.
Just a lot of stuff happened that I forgot there was a time
when he used to basically be a god to me.
Boy.
He was so cool.
How many times did you picture yourself with that cigar?
Oh my God.
After saving the earth.
The cigar dragging the alien out of the desert.
Maybe a cigar on a boat in Cuba.
Just getting jiggie with it.
All the time.
And now...
I had a couple that are audio-related.
That could be my last ones.
One, I can't...
I don't think we can play the audio
because we just don't know about these rules.
I'd rather be my own master.
I love it.
What does he got there?
Oh, we got a Independence Day based?
That is literally a glass with a fist punching an alien from Independence Day in the face.
That's awesome.
Somehow they have that here at Falsight.
With a false thing that's incredible.
Absolutely.
Very meta.
I'm blown away.
So you know this?
I do.
The Dice Man cometh.
That is the Dice Man.
So we're informed by, and maybe everybody else knows this, I didn't.
Informed by somebody who says it might be obvious, but did you know the O and the song EMF Unbelievable is the Dice Man?
I didn't want to play the song for fear of YouTube yelling at us.
But you know the things you say.
Unbelievable?
Unbelievable.
Oh.
Is it really?
That is wild.
Yeah, it's listed on the Wikipedia's
So they must have to pay for it.
Damn, that's wild.
Not very believable, but there it is on Wikipedia.
And my last one
is actual audio,
which is the subject line,
Aaron Rogers Math,
Dear Roast Beef Wrangler.
We've probably had that one, but I like it.
It's disgusting.
I want to call back to the banter about Aaron Rogers
and his quote,
impressive math calculations.
He thinks of himself as somewhat of a savant
in making these split-second decisions on probabilities.
But really, he's closer to Michael Irvin math
than anything that would be accurate.
I was interested in watching his documentary,
but as a math teacher myself,
I had to turn it off when he was gloating over his abilities
to square numbers.
If the calculations he is using are helping him with his confidence in what a play he's running,
then great.
But don't let his overconfidence deceive you.
He is no different than any cheeseball sales guy throwing meaningless numbers out to sound more intelligent.
He couldn't logic his way out of a wet paper bag.
Never punt, always back in, keep chasing that money from Nathan Price.
Here is the piece of audio in question where I was impressed.
Math teacher is laughing at me.
So, you know, there's ways of saying that,
but you're throwing the ball to the open guy,
you're going through progression,
but in the end, it's all percentages.
Like, so in a goal ball out there's a 40% completion
on a high one and a 20% on the back shoulder.
And I have a checkdown that's a 90% completion right here.
I gotta factor in what down the distance it is,
who that guy is, like James Jones back in the day,
every jump ball to him, 20% with both guys,
50% with him.
So that changed your mindset, like, oh, there's a 50% throw out there,
and then a 30% here, and then 80% here,
and a 90% here.
In the end, it's all percentages.
Wait, but he didn't say anything about squaring numbers there, did he?
I don't know if...
So I thought if he said squaring numbers, then that he got it wrong.
That to me is just...
I thought the guy was going to say he's just verbalizing something that's intuitive.
But like I...
I think I screw this word up, but the term like Bayesian probability...
That's all that is, right?
It's just like I make different decisions based on the cost,
like the value propositions.
of them.
But is it also like...
If he's talking about something else,
like,
that's...
Well, I don't know if he was
meaning the,
the roundness of the numbers
because you never believe
something that's going to cost
the...
To rebuild this,
it'll be $500 million.
Really?
You know that exactly?
No, but...
Like, this is 10%,
this is 40%,
this is 20%.
I thought that
might have been what this guy meant.
But as you say that,
I also think
it's kind of obvious, right?
Of course it is.
A long pass is going to be a less percentage.
And the checkdown, yes, that will be 90.
And if you have a really good receiver,
I bet he's able to catch it more often than the normal.
Now, is it 20 to 50?
I would like to see those stats.
Yes.
An actual breakdown.
Or is that just Aaron Rogers saying,
I trust that guy because he's caught a couple of tough passes in my past.
In my past, I've thrown a couple,
and I know he caught him and I didn't expect him to.
You're saying it's science?
his independent research may be a little off.
Yes.
Well, I think it's, what he's doing is what frustrates people about him.
He's describing something that's pretty obvious,
but making it sound like he's very smart to do so.
And everything he talks about is things where I'm like, yeah, shit, I mean, that's true.
You just sound like a tool talking about it all the time, right?
It's kind of like with shoddy to an extent.
But, I mean, there are certainly young quarterbacks that they have to teach
by hitting them on the head with a whistle,
like check the ball down.
How do you not see that this is a more obvious solution
to this problem on this play?
But I also don't think he's like reinventing the wheel.
You know, maybe that's what the math teacher is mad about.
Although I imagine if you're a math teacher,
you just get mad anybody else talks about math.
Well?
I would and be like, no, fuck no.
It's like if you're watching, well, not Fraser,
that's real realistic, but another news radio.
and you're like, hey, that's not how a radio station runs.
Right.
That's good stuff.
Real good stuff.
I think that's all I got.
Okay.
Do we want to do news outside of news?
I think we should drain veins and then do Afro-Man and then news.
Okay, everyone take a silly bus and pass it to the Amigo behind you.
Hey man, what the hell do you think you're doing?
Yeah.
Mr. Cartmenez is here to make sure you all get into college.
Getting into college, man, we ain't getting no college.
Fuck you!
Yeah, man.
Yeah, man.
This is crap.
How do I reach these kids?
The reason that you think you can't get into college
is because you haven't been taught how to cheat properly.
How do you think white people always get the head?
Because we cheat all the time.
I mean because they cheat all the time.
cheat all the time.
This is Bill Bealichick, coach of the New England Patriots.
He's won three Super Bowes.
How?
He cheated.
He even got caught cheating, and nobody cared.
Bill Bealichek proved that in America it's okay to cheat
as long as you cheat your way to the top.
Hey, I don't want to be called a cheater.
No, no.
If you cheat and fail, you're a cheater.
If you cheat and succeed, you're savvy.
This is bullshit.
I don't want to waste my time learning to cheat.
Go ahead. The door's right there.
Bye-bye. Have fun. We will miss you.
How do I reach these kids?
You're listening to The Dumb Zone.
One week from today will be Thursday, March 26th.
And we will be in Fort Worth at Zollies.
Tarrant County back-to-back week, stand up.
Yeah, 1130 to 2.30.
Is Joe Exotic still in jail?
Ish?
We'll find out.
Over here.
We'll find out next Thursday.
We will not be in the Game Day Men's Health Studio.
We'll be at Zollies Pizza.
Zollies, part of the...
It's a burgeoning empire?
What kind of an empire does Jay have over there?
I think it's well beyond burgeon.
It's established?
Yeah.
Yeah, it's an empire for sure.
Jay J. Javier, our guy who owns all the Cane Roses,
also popped up a Zoli's pizza.
What kind of pizza is Zolis?
Does it have a, like, Kane Roso is like in Italy.
Yeah, yeah.
If you go to Italy, that's the exact kind of pizza you'll find.
I do know this about the Zolies in Fort Worth.
It is the place that debuted the Press Box Hot Chicken Sandwich some years ago.
Ah.
Will Julie be with them?
us.
One can only hope.
One can only hope.
She's on spring break this week.
Julie, though, is always
with us in some way.
There's a little Julie in all of us.
Speaking of Tarant County,
that's the only place I've been,
well, it's the only county
jail I've ever been to.
We were driving through San Marcos where I went to
college, and my wife, we drive by the San
San Marcos jail.
And you've ever been in there?
With my kids at the car.
So I'm like, no, I hadn't been to that one.
There's a time.
Where have you been?
Have you?
Someday for that.
I'm right.
Dude, what are we doing?
How am I supposed to answer that question?
It's a cop's fault.
Speaking of it was the cop's fault.
It's time to talk afro, man.
It's brought to you by.
Oh, let's make this brought to us by Ownwell.
Ownwell.
Affordability, it's all the rage, Dan.
You could save a little bit of money.
Maybe you skip your coffee one day or you don't order out anymore.
And that's nice.
You save a little bit of money.
But with Ownwell, you can save a lot of money.
And if you don't, there's no harm, no fouls.
To help you save money by protesting your property taxes without you having to, like, get a brick.
I think that's how you normally protest them.
They do it for you.
And you only pay if you get a reduction, the good kind.
86% of homeowners get that reduction.
You're going to get a better rate as far as what,
Ownwell takes is their cut than the rest of the market.
It all starts by going to ownwell.com slash the dumb zone.
Just takes a couple of minutes.
You give them your address.
You give them a couple other pieces of info.
And they start fighting for you.
Blake saves money on his cable bill, all sorts of things.
Yeah, saved money, obviously on property taxes.
But yeah, internet bill, phone bill.
They have TV cable bill.
It's all under their own well concierge service.

Dan
Oh
No well
So back in the summer of
2022
The home
of rapper Afro Man
was rated
Afro man if you don't know him from anything else
You may know him from
Because I Got High
But Then I Got High
Okay
As has cleared up
up in the court, right?
Oh, that's right.
Did you mark that?
I did not.
Okay.
So this has all played out very, very publicly.
I don't personally know the statutes on what trials end up on TV and with cameras in them
and which ones end up with Tom Brady being drawn like a ghost.
It seems like it's up to the judge maybe.
Don't know.
But in this case, over the last week or so, the afro-man.
man defamation trial has been all the rage on social media so afro man lives in ohio and the local police
raided his home in 2022 they had a warrant and that warrant was based on information they got from an
informant now if you do some digging on social media or wherever it sounds like there's informant
like a lot of cis are is just like a crackhead you know you know most of people
think about watching the shield.
Most of the people that they were getting information,
that's the problem when you're like in the military
and you've got to get info. This is a big problem
with the Taliban.
They would lie and say like, oh, this guy,
it's just their enemy. But in this case,
this criminal informant
tells these police in Ohio
that Afro-Man has a
sex dungeon. And he's
got women underneath
his house.
Now, it might also be
that Afro-Man, like,
his whole neighborhood probably just smells like weed all the time because he's afro man and he's a black guy he's got a lot of money and so they raided his house they took some money about five grand from a jacket that they found took some of his weed some bait pens small amount of weed but nothing else they didn't find the dungeon and uh so he has been hitting back at them for the last few years by releasing songs
and music videos about the local police.
I think you also have to say they broke his door down.
Oh, yeah.
They destroyed his door.
Can I just say this as a blanket statement here for all my,
this is for all my libertarian homies out there that still go to like reason.com.
The police don't do anything without fucking your whole shit up.
And they don't have to pay for any of it.
If you get illegally searched, they're going to bust down your door.
They're going to maybe let your dog out that you'll never get back.
And it doesn't matter.
What they did to him, I understand why you're pointing it out.
It's what they do to everybody.
Well, I'm pointing it out because you're going to need that information for some song titles.
Yes, but they wrecked his house.
That's what they do when they do these things.
They turned your house upside down.
And they turned off his security cameras.
Yes, they cut the cords to his security cameras because at the time that the raid was happening,
Afro-man's ex-wife
let him know, hey, the
sheriff's deputies are at your house,
and he was able to pull it up on his phone
and, like, watch.
And I think was able to talk, at which point
they were like, snip, snip.
Because that seems
pretty nefarious.
Yeah. Like, why?
Yeah, what are you hiding?
That's where, when you said
they got that five grand out of
a coat pocket or whatever,
and then I guess it said five,
grand on the evidence bag and then later
there was $4,400
or $4,600 in there.
Yeah.
And so that's why he
did he write a song about
Did you steal my money?
Something like that.
He wrote a song called One of them's Will You Help Me Repair
My Door?
Pretty straightforward.
There's a music video for that.
He raised money.
He used the footage.
Yes.
He used the actual footage from the raid from before they
turned it off during
in his music video.
Yes.
And he's a little more civilized than TC and I were because on his countertop, he has a full pound cake.
But it is covered by one of those glass cake covers.
And one of the officers, who's a heavy set fellow, as he walks by, he stops and really ogles the pound cake.
It's a lemon pound cake.
He looks like he wants to take some.
Yeah, if you ever seen a guy, like, get busted checking out of girls behind or something?
He's I-Fing the pound cake.
That's his big fat cop on the...
So he named that guy Officer Poundcake.
Nice.
And release some songs about him.
He, all of his videos...
One song is called Why You Disconnecting My Video Camera?
Okay.
Yeah.
There's one called Lickett Lisa, where he...
The female deputy who cut his, who cut his security camera.
He illustrates her eating...
performing oral sex on another series of women several times.
It's clearly her because he filmed her in the same seat that she was giving her deposition in.
So the police department is suing him for defamation.
Now, that's where you're wrong.
The police department is not.
Those, I'm pretty sure those deputies are suing him individually.
Okay.
Which I think is important.
because if the police department was doing it,
they probably have more resources behind them.
These are police.
That's true.
So they have a fair amount.
It's just the case is the case.
But it's not brought by the police department is the state.
Yeah, that would be tough.
Defamation is going to be tough to prove against like the state, right?
It's way easier, I would think, an individual who can prove harm.
This Lisa, whoever, yeah.
Right.
She's not famous.
She can't.
Right.
So they take the stand.
One of the songs name is Randy Walters is a son of a bitch.
Yeah, and here's how I found out about that.
And Randy Walters is one of the cops.
Very long song titles.
Here's how this showed up on my feed first.
It showed up, I'll just play the audio, of Randy Walters, Ohio Sheriff's Deputy on the stand.
And he's, do you want to play it?
Yeah.
Go for it.
Yeah.
Affirmation statement is that he said he had sex with your wife.
Yes.
Okay.
And that's painted you in a false life?
It's caused tremendous pain in my life.
I'll get to that.
We have to go through false light first.
So does it paint you in a false life?
Yes, that my wife is cheating on me with Mr. Foreman.
But we all know that's not true, correct?
I don't know.
Wait, you don't know if your wife's cheating on you or not?
You want to go there?
No, I just want to ask that question because you said we don't know.
I just need the answer to know.
Been with that woman since middle school.
I know.
I would hope she wouldn't.
But once somebody puts it out there for their fun and entertainment, it's out there.
And it's a problem.
So it's something we cannot verify the truth of?
Is it a thing that can be verified, true or false?
Ask your client.
Okay, so this is Randy.
The songs, you know, it's about having sex with his wife.
But I saw that clip first.
Okay.
And then I'm like, well, how bad could it have been?
and the very next thing that popped up on my feed was this.
It's an affermanent a flag suit.
Randy Walters is the son of a bitch.
Wow, pretty to the point?
What else?
That's why I thought his wife and got to.
Okay.
Now he's playing video from the raid,
and he's miming having sex with Randy's wife.
Pictures of her and him together
So that was great
The actual songs, you know
Really to the point
All right, that's enough of that one
He's also in the video
He's wearing like this
American flag suit
Which he showed up to court in
Every day
And he was wearing American flag sunglasses
Like you can't see black on the front
It's like you can see black on the front
It's like
You can see through the flag.
It's like a wrestler.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And he's been posting all throughout, you know,
and for the last few years,
he's been making parody videos
where he hires actors that look like these police officers
and making fun of them.
And he's had, there were supporters,
because this is the sort of thing that catches fire.
And I reference, like, the libertarian,
that is a cause.
You can get people who have never heard of Afro Man before,
who were like, you know what I care about,
that the police shouldn't be able to do that sort of thing to you?
Yeah.
So there were people at Afro-Man's trial from all over.
I mean, he drew large support.
And, you know, there's a, let's play the lick at least,
lickum Lisa one, Clayton,
because this is the female officer that cut his security camera.
And you can see that she starts actually crying on the stand
as they make her,
much like us when we were in court
and we had to look at images of
ticket Reddit in court
they just make this lady
sit here and watch these videos
that Afro Man made.
Now she's a fake
cop is chasing. The woman's a little
heavier than the actual lady.
Now he's implying.
She's got a penis.
Now here she is performing moral sex on a stripper from behind.
Now you could go back.
Now we're back in the courtroom.
We've got tears.
This is so absurd.
That she went down on my spouse.
Okay, there you go.
That's enough.
Now, this has come up before in court, the rap lyric thing.
And it has, I don't know that anybody's ever gone to jail for lyrics,
but there have been times where people's lyrics will get brought up in court to build a case against them.
Yeah, and reading the lyrics?
Yes.
And the lawyer always has to be like, okay, this is a joke.
this is art, this is poetry, and they're like, yeah, well, what about this one where he says,
I shot this guy nine times and we have this video of him with a gun in his hand?
And then they're like, okay, but this is art.
But in this case, Afro-Man is not describing him breaking any laws.
He's just talking shit about public officials.
I mean, maybe they're not public officials, but there are other citizens that, you know,
I guess ultimately the jury decided this is not, this is freedom of speech.
That if I'm saying that I'm having sex with your wife, there's really nothing you can do about it.
Yeah, I'm not.
Is that defaming you?
Well, I think when taken in some, there's the art part of it, right?
Like he's putting music video, he's hiring actors.
Like, this is clearly a joke, right?
Was there ever something in the Tiger King case?
You remember the video about Carol Baskin's husband or Carol Baskin feeding her husband to the lions?
Yeah, maybe a C-Sindicist or something where you weren't allowed to depict that?
I don't know.
But he, Afro-Man in this case, is very focused, because he was on the stand for half an hour.
He's very focused on the idea that this raid was illegal.
And it probably was.
I don't think that mattered.
But that's not, yeah, that's not what's on trial here.
It's just.
No, ultimately they just decided.
But you've got the right to.
He kept in every, yes, I mean, he had his talking points that he kept out.
Oh, yeah.
And I want to play a little bit of that.
But here's the first moment of his testimony that I realized.
Well, I shouldn't say that.
The first moment is probably whenever I realized he was wearing the American flag suit in the box.
But a couple minutes in, he started kind of bragging, and I thought this was funny.
You have a large presence on social media, obviously, correct?
Depends on your definition of large.
There's bigger people than me.
but I'm all right.
And on Instagram,
is it fair to say that you have
247,000 followers?
Yeah, I just got some of them the other day.
You've got millions coming all the time.
Yes. Not all the time, just here lately.
Because the trial's coming up?
Y'all, the publicity from the officer's lawsuit
and me is running up my numbers.
Yeah.
That's a subtle one, but just to let them know, like, hey, I'm going to make a killing off this.
Yeah.
And I saw so many people on social media this morning.
From me, it's not because I'm making these songs.
It's because you put a lawsuit on us.
Right.
Or him.
Now I'm transferring this into a personal situation.
But yeah.
Sometimes getting sued can be good for your business.
Yeah.
Here was his main point of.
Afriban is still going to have to pay these lawyers.
We know how that can be.
True.
His main point of attack is here.
My whole thing is they never should have raided me in the first place.
That's your whole thing.
That's my whole thing.
That's the whole thing.
If they never would have showed up, there would be no songs about them.
I wouldn't know who they are.
Their faces would not be on my video cameras.
None of this.
We wouldn't be in this room right now.
If they hadn't arraided my house and didn't press no charges, didn't even know what they was doing,
this whole thing is their fault.
they're suing me for their mistake.
And so you don't really care if they stole your money or not.
You're just mad by what they did.
I do care about if they stole them.
The police officers shouldn't be stealing the civilians' money.
So I do care.
All of it is an outrage.
This whole thing is an outrage.
Add it to the list, I want to say that,
in a setting where it can be taken seriously.
All of it.
This whole damn operation.
It's an outrage.
age. He sort of restates that at the end, but I thought this was a nice bit of a heater.
So what they did searching your house gave you the right to do everything you did?
Under the circumstance that I got freedom of speech, after they run around my house with guns
and kick down my door, I got the right to kick a can in my backyard, use my freedom of speech,
turn my bad times into a good time. Yes, I do. And I think I'm a sport for doing so,
because I don't go to their house, kick down their door.
flip them off on their surveillance cameras,
then try to play the victim and sue them.
You were at Lisa Phillips's deposition, correct?
Yes, sir.
In your lawyer's office.
Okay, so now they're going to remind him,
did you saw she was sad?
And every time they're like, she was sad,
you saw all that affected him, he was like,
I was sad when you kicked down my door.
Yeah.
My kid was sad when you had an AR-15 in front of him.
Like, he just played it perfectly.
And, yeah, it ends here.
Is there anything that can change my mind about the fact that they shouldn't have been at my house in the first place?
Is there anything that can change my mind about how my money shouldn't have been touched in the first place?
No.
That's all the questions I have. Thank you.
You're welcome.
It's a great triumph, man.
Yeah, it's a good half hour.
It did make me wonder.
Cross-examination.
Back to that first point of how I have never for a second believed that people that
get selected for a jury, follow the rules about what media they're allowed to intake or not,
especially today.
No way.
There's just no way.
And so, I don't know how all this works, but I wouldn't be surprised if somebody or a few people in the jury knew, like, hey, everybody's roasting these cops.
It's like we cannot be the guys who side with these dorks and lick at Lisa right now.
Like, Afro-Man is the king of the people out there right now.
I just, I feel like that that has to impact the jury pool in some way.
Maybe not, but.
Yeah, you would think.
I feel like it's tough to get around.
But it just feels like that'd be, do you think it was easier?
Back in the day?
Previously, yeah.
Yeah.
I definitely do.
Because now everything like, oh, you wanted to look something up, maybe a newspaper.
paper.
I'll just avoid the paper.
It's like avoiding a score type thing.
Your phone.
Yeah.
Or even 20 years ago, these songs would not be released.
He would not be able to do this kind of stuff.
But if you live, but the jury pool where you live, if it's where Afro Man lives, this big
thing is happening here finally, you probably can't avoid it.
In that case, you're probably right regardless of technology.
Yeah.
But he's, I saw a bunch of people who, he's very entertaining.
He's very entertaining.
than me that were like, damn, I didn't know anything about Afro-Man.
Like, this is like playing the Super Bowl on a small scale.
When he wakes up next month, his Spotify numbers will be ten times what they were the month before.
You're very familiar with Afro-Man, are you not?
Or somewhat familiar?
I mean, I know the song.
You know what I remember about Afro-Man before now is like he got attacked on stage and, like,
hit some woman or something.
He might be on Kemp's Ben for that reason.
Let me see here.
Like he hit her with a guitar.
Because he plays guitar.
Wow.
Number two on the list just below Abraham Lincoln.
Afro-Man clocked a female at a concert.
Yeah, dude.
Don't get a lot of rapper guitars, do you?
No.
He's more of a rap.
He's not much of a rapper.
But he's like a comedic rapper, right?
Yeah.
He's got like a weird owl element to him.
But he's a real musician.
Like, you know,
A lot of those guys are.
They just don't play.
And what they really don't do is smash a lady in the head with a stratacaster.
Right, but he's real musician slash bit, whereas Weird Al is like bit.
Are you sure?
I don't.
You think he's real musician, too?
Am I going to get in an argument with Ty Walker about this, about his ability to play the...
What is this thing?
Accordian.
I mean, I could be wrong about this, but in my experience,
most of the people who are the best at writing, like, weird,
effed up parody stuff are people who are extremely musically talented.
I bet you he's, I bet you like he can compose.
I could be wrong.
Well, I'll take that bet.

A lot going on out there, Dan.
A lot more than you think.
So much more than you think.
I just have to get to the right window here.
People just don't understand.
I know.
Tabs.
Whatever happened to printing.
It's a good question.
This is kind of an odd story.
Not printing is why Hillary lost.
Because you're all like, oh, I'll save the tree.
Right. There's something to that.
We'll go to a coffee shop and work.
Right.
All right.
Did you guys ever go to Kennedale Speedway when you were kids?
Kennedale?
Yeah. It was a thing around here to go out there.
They would have like drag races.
They had an actual like dirt track out there at one point.
It was a big deal.
I want to know the amount of cities that have a dragway and run the wingtie offense like Kennedale.
I would bet it's a pretty
The Venn diagrams and overlay
Yeah
I don't think you're running
State of the Yard offense
In a place where you have
ATV buggy races
on Friday night
Do you think you would have ever gone
If your parents didn't get divorced?
Probably not
It was absolutely something
Chappie took you guys to right?
No this was like a high school thing
Oh
This was a
I don't know
Cars were a really big deal around here
You know you'd have like
all the party
parking lots in this area on Friday and Saturday night, they'll have like, you got to also remember,
I was in high school when Fast and Furious came out. So like, I wasn't car guy at all, still am not.
I just want a fair lease. But other than that, I don't give a shit about a car. But it was very popular
here. And Kenndale was where you could like take your car. And then you know at some level,
one of the coolest things the ticket ever did was Friday night drags. They would go out to Texas
Motor Speedway, Rich and the OD would be on the call.
Beating.
I board opted.
I'm sure you thought it was a beating.
Soroy would be in the crowd.
Did you have to go?
I had to set it up.
Soroy would be out of the crowd.
I had to run mics down the damn strip like it mattered.
Dude, but it was awesome.
They would just, you just race your car.
Yeah.
It would just be like Red Dex and like gearheads would just show up on Friday night at TMS.
They would just race the straightaway and like a souped up, you know, whatever.
And it's rich.
Yeah.
Dude, I had fun.
The Roy would be hammered in the crowd, like talking to the racers and talking to chicks.
It was a great time.
The only one that took it seriously was the OD who would have his sheet of the cars in the bracket.
So he knew this 1996 Saturn was going to go up against this 06 Cadillac.
I got the Cadillac in this one.
Let's see how it turns out.
And then you hear them.
Oh, it's Tracy from Watago by a carling.
Dude, it was fun.
But anyways, I'm doing this story because Kennedy Dale's racetrack popped back up in the news.
in a
you can either call this
a die doing what you love
or something very ironic
because
the track safety official
died in an ATV crash
Saturday night
that's a great headline
I mean not
people loved him
yeah a lot of positive comments here
he was a volunteer
and career firefighter
since the 80s
he had been help rescuing
Sprint car drivers for more than 20 years.
A force field.
They say he was a champion of driver safety.
Well.
Right up until that moment when he wrecked his ATV into another firefighter's ATV Saturday night trying to save a driver.
Oh, okay.
He was trying to save somebody, but he wrecked.
The lifeguard drowned.
Yeah.
Basically.
Yeah.
While trying to save.
That's happened.
Yeah.
This guy's, okay.
Give this guy a little.
something.
It's a little something, but he died in a car accident at the track that he's the safety
official of.
So there is a little...
Interesting.
There's something to...
Maybe we'll go doing what he loved.
I haven't read enough about this story, and I'm not going to.
But do you guys know who Cesar Chavez was?
I do now.
You do now?
Yeah.
Yeah, I've known he's a guy with streets.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So if you grow up...
Once you drive under it?
Not grow up.
I grew up a good, faithful young man.
But if you, in your later years, turn into a communist like me, you learn a lot about Cesar Chavez.
I just assumed he was like the Mexican MLK.
Close enough.
Because everywhere you go, there's a street.
Yeah, he's a civil rights.
And a lot of it was like farmer rights.
I've come to learn that.
Agricultural worker rights.
Got to protect the farmers.
Of which there's a lot of.
We're going to get out the bad ones.
That's one of my favorite things Trump ever said.
It was when he realized, like, most white business owners have, like, a bunch of Mexicans they love.
Don't want to leave, and he's like, only the bad ones.
In any case, this dude, much like MLK, loved Poon.
Yeah.
And maybe loved it too much.
Loving Poon is one thing.
Yeah.
Forcing that Poon to love you back is another.
Yes.
And to our knowledge, all of that.
All of MLK's...
Nothing's come out yet.
Right.
It's like, hey, he made me.
Everybody was into it.
Yes.
We're all...
And we're all, like, over a certain age.
Well, a woman that he founded the union with, some 60 years ago, came forward and said that he had raped her.
Yeah, she's like 90.
Yeah.
She had a blog post.
Which...
Her and...
Why can't I remember his name?
The Spur.
Oh.
Yeah.
Matt Berry?
No.
He just exposed Magic City.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
The White Center.
Luke?
Is he a Luke?
Yes.
In any case, she put out this letter.
Luke Rittenauer.
It's sad.
Not him.
Cornette?
Luke Corny.
Yeah.
And now they're, here's why this story is obviously funny.
Because I see a lot of people.
So Greg Abbott's like, you've got to change all these names of these streets.
The guy's a pedophile.
This woman was underage.
And they're canceling, like, celebrations that they had coming up.
And, you know, this guy that I follow who's like a big right winger is like,
uh, care to comment?
This guy's clearly, uh, clearly.
a pedophile and a rapist
like, are you going to just deify?
I'm like, dude, have you no shame?
Like,
the Epstein thing is still hot.
We're getting new
shit every week.
Just sit this one out.
Yeah, and I, from what I've seen,
I don't see anybody being like, yeah,
you shouldn't change that street name. Everybody's kind of
like, okay. Like, no matter what side you're on,
right? Like, yeah. Allow me to be the first.
You think you shouldn't?
I don't know.
Well, if you shouldn't...
Well, then you've got to start looking at every street.
The Robert E. Lee...
Do you change Columbus Day or do you just roll with it?
Do you keep the statue up?
You know, it's like, whatever.
That, to me, is different because you are literally trying to tell a different story about what happened.
You're trying to...
Well, I mean, he did discover this land.
He was the first to set foot in theory.
But when taught that way...
Yeah, but when taught that way, I think the idea is that it sort of like acts like the natives
weren't already here and thriving.
Right.
But this is just, this doesn't change the fact that he fought for migrant worker rights.
Okay, so you put the statue up because he fought for migrant worker rights.
That's kind of my thing.
With Robert E. Lee, it's like, why are you taking it down?
Well, because I think he was fighting to preserve slavery.
Yeah, he was shooting at.
Yeah, slaves.
Americans, though.
Trader.
In this case.
Like, I mean, white Americans, too.
He didn't.
He was ordering the death of white soldiers.
New Yorkers and Ohioans and whatever, whatever.
was allowed.
I don't
know that
Cesar Chavez
he didn't sex his way
to union protections.
There's a good point.
I don't know.
I like the point.
This is a wild one.
But also the point of
okay, then change the street.
Whatever.
I don't.
I don't.
Just drive on it.
You can call whatever you want.
Not me.
No way you'll know where this is, Blake.
Sillsby, Texas.
Yeah.
You do.
Argyle played them a state semifinal game in 2018?
Looks like it's near Beaumont.
Down there.
Okay.
So I saw a couple headlines regarding something that was happening at the Sillsby City Council over the last two weeks.
I've never even heard of this place.
Did they condemn ISIS and Palestine or Israel?
No.
This is about a 7,000 person town, okay?
So what they have.
is controversy over their animal control situation.
They have scandal,
where they have accused their animal control operations officer
of euthanizing several dogs kind of on his own with his pistol,
with a silencer.
Yeah.
And they're saying that he's like there's no accountability.
they've been improperly disposing these dogs,
and here's how they know they've been properly been disposing them.
Because last week's city council meeting,
which I found,
it's about two hours long,
the first lady that comes up,
maybe the second lady,
I'm going to show you this, okay?
I left the front end in here
so you can immediately tell what kind of interaction we're about to have.
The lady's a...
She looks like you think.
She's a Karen and Beaumont.
Get as much volume as you can.
You need to give your...
address when you're okay so she walks up she's got a basket with a blanket over
where you live yes and she doesn't want to give her a dress we need the street and a
city so you want me to announce my address yes ma'am okay one two five dawn drive
silky again basket blanket over the basket I'm Michelle Lanner I'm the
angels of rest me.
I am the one that found the dogs.
Unfolds the blanket.
Well, there's a vacuum sealed bag with dog remains in it.
And it's a big ass bag, too.
In her woods.
And you sit up here, and you say that you don't know what's going on in yours.
And now she's walking around the city council room holding the dead dogs remains.
Camera pans away.
Yeah.
giving me the excuse you don't know.
And then you're going to stay here and like D.E. and Zimmerman.
Pause it.
This goes on for a few minutes.
So if you want to fast forward to about the two minute mark,
and now you get the shot of her.
She's not behind the podium or the lectern anymore.
She drops the dead dog body.
And now she starts walking around to every city council member pointing in their face.
Electric.
Heck yeah.
Electric entertainment.
Work together?
Or I could be doing.
Get your head out your butt and do your damn job.
Ma'am, you didn't watch how you're talking up there.
And you need to do your job and stop letting us corrupt you going on in your city.
Yeah.
Wow, she got the crowd.
Yeah, right.
That's awesome.
I'm with her too.
Yeah.
Fight the power.
Yeah.
Yeah.
She went on, I went felony charge for him that I dealt with.
Yeah.
felony charge for him on animal cruelty and neglect.
He needs to be charged for shooting a dog with his personal 22 and a silencer.
It needs to answer for these crimes.
City leaders say they were unaware of this issue.
Wow.
Yeah, but people are like finding these dogs and being like, what would happen here?
Yeah.
Well, your grandpa would be proud.
Boy, I know.
Blake's like, this is just Blake's version of Doge.
I can save a little money on animal control
The gun is too quick of a dad
We got your grandpa
We got this guy
We got Anna Kay
All loved to
Slice into a dog
Do you guys see
Do you guys see the Jasmine Crockett story?
What's that?
Well it's a very wire-like story
But there was
Last week it came out that Dallas
Swat
Had shot and killed a guy
I believe it was in a hospital parking garage
Like he had barricaded himself
he had warrants.
Children's.
And like a week later it comes out, the guy was one of the main security detail people for Jasmine Crockett's campaign.
And he was, despite not being a cop running like an Uber service type thing for off-duty cops, called Off-Duty on Demand, I think.
So he would hook up cops with, like I told you, my stepdad back in the day, would work at a dance club.
or whatever, and this guy would facilitate getting cops to where they needed to be.
But I guess he also took it upon himself to be her muscle.
He's on filing reports as like a paid employee.
He's in photos with her, and he was a wanted felon for impersonating a police officer,
among other things, I believe.
But that's just, I mean, obviously, like I say the wire, because it's like a black politician,
but it happens all over the place.
Look into the muscle anywhere.
Like, what do you want to do?
It's like hiring the FM DJ.
Yeah.
Some of your defense events are going to be bipolar.
Right.
Yeah.
And, yeah, it's hard to find the fresh out of college.
Yeah, and I don't know that I want to chill security guard.
Not someone who's been in the mix.
So we had the story last week of Lena Hado.
the very hot judge in Houston that was acting just in sense that she was not allowed to the most expensive
spot to watch a concert at the Rodeo Houston.
She was allowed to like it was the second most expensive spot.
Yeah.
But she wanted to be on that piece of dirt.
And she had been there days prior.
They had allowed her to, but not on this particular night.
She goes full Karen or what would we call it?
If I were Karen and I went to Spain, what would they call me, or Mexico?
Carina?
I don't know, but it's...
You know, because you have like...
Let me tell you who I am.
Right, but I just mean a name that could work, but she's doing that.
And they kick her out.
She looks stupid.
But the rodeo in Houston has, from afar, seem to really blow up in like the last 10 years to me.
I'm sure it's been there forever, but I noticed it when they started having...
like rappers of note play.
And I'm sure they have music out at like the stock show,
which we go to every year, but it's not real performances.
This is like...
It's not Bugatti Casino?
No, Tarrant County's own.
No, it's like, you know, Lizzo and Paul Wall and Bun B, like they get real artists
through big shows.
Oh, okay.
And, no, Bugatti Casino.
But he's local.
He's local.
Yes.
So those are local Houston.
I'm trying to pick a local rapper.
But it's been getting bigger, and I guess what it's been getting is more urban and more clubbish and more black people.
And that is the point at which Rodeo Houston has to say, we have new dress codes, quote unquote.
So apparently.
no more sag
after social media
videos of
people bitching
like I brought my family
to this and there's women
dressed like this or that
now they have to come out
with a
reinforcement of the policy
to let people know
that you need to only wear
family friendly outfits
to rodeo Houston
see that's
you can't have subjective stuff like that
but that's what they want
objectionable material
anything that exposed
is undergarments, they want it subjective.
So they can tell you no
immediately.
So first the airport, now the rodeo.
The airport, the rodeo.
You know, another one is cruise ships
that I see a lot on Twitter, people being like,
this is clearly you just got, you're mad
that, like, the community
found your
cruise. And that's what they
have, like, no dancing in this area.
Like, they put in all these
new things that probably
like my mom would be dancing.
on a cruise there.
It's like not a big deal.
But the cruise is mostly old and they just want to chill.
Yeah.
They don't want to see people in their underwear.
But yes, this is that thing where they're seeing a market they're not serving and those people have money.
Yeah.
So, hey, let's try to attract them to our venue.
Whoa, whoa, not like that though.
You know?
Yeah.
This is the one that I know, Dan, and.
and Blake really love.
Over in Richardson,
their school's crossing guard
had her car breakdown.
Okay. I don't love that.
And the dad's club
banded together.
Got our new car, boys.
A new car.
New to her.
Why not just fix the one she had?
It was beyond repair.
Because that wouldn't make the news
when it's all about you
and your little dad's club?
She was lifting to work, Ubering, to be a crossing guard.
I'm about tired of this.
Just Dad's Club in general.
Well, the JJ Pierce janitor got a new car.
Oh, yeah.
Enough.
Now, let me propose this insane idea.
People are getting visa cards and ripped hotel rooms.
You'd have to be high as hell to think this.
But what if they paid her a living wage?
She could buy her own car.
For being a crossing guard?
What if they mandated that she actually not have to be lower class
because she's a crossing guard?
Well, that'll put businesses out of order.
Out of business.
Is this Kevin Durant's fault for making $400 million?
In any case.
Yay to the Dad's Club?
No.
I do think we should get behind like a thing where
maybe we do try to vocalize.
that some of our highest paid athletes
are not paid enough
because like you just mentioned Kevin Durant,
what kind of value does LeBron bring to a franchise, right?
I don't think this is a winning issue for us.
We're talking about a crossing guard who can't afford a car.
Yeah, but LeBron should make more.
In a purely economic sense, you're right.
Right.
But what if LeBron could make more
and this crossing guard could have health care?
What did this crossing guard ever do?
Did she ever do like a, what, track down from like 90 feet behind and block?
In the finals, no less, you know?
Blake, do you know where Crandall is?
Yeah, East, Pirates.
Very good.
For the, I think this is third straight month in a row,
Crandall is the hottest zip code in the country.
for movement.
People are moving to Crandall.
Yes.
Where is it?
To further, it's like,
maybe 15 minutes east of Seagaville.
Yeah.
Get there and keep going.
Because I thought a few years ago it was like Murphy.
Murphy?
That's by me.
But was like a hot zip.
And this is why I'm doing this.
We're just checking in
on my repeated claim
that in my lifetime,
the Metroplex will touch Oklahoma and Waco.
No.
It will.
We're getting there.
You're going to live in Crandall.
Not in your lifetime.
There's so much land outside of the Metroplex.
Have you driven east?
I mean, previously, the idea that Crandall would be somewhere
that would show up on a national list for moving.
A lot of field out there.
Melissa has a Buckees.
They have luxury apartments now in Crandall.
Highly walkable, amenity-rich city.
Yeah, but what does that mean in Crandall terms?
Yeah, that's true.
It means they hold the thing upside down when they hand it to you at your window.
That is service.
All right, there's your news.
Shout out to the Crandall Pirates.
The Dumb Zone News.
Like and subscribe.
That's a good news.
False Idol has a THC Seltzer.
Yeah, they have a Baja blast one that I'll be taking a six-pack home.
I'm having some right now.
Getting Baja blasted.
You baked?
So.
Anyway, this is brought to us by Harry's Razors.
Oh, here you.
Your wife is keeping two kids from killing each other, and you're going to walk home.
Hey.
What's up?
I'm a big Harry's guy.
Me too.
Use mine this one.
morning. Now, I've been using Harries for a long time, but previous to Harries, I would get like the,
I don't know if it was the Bick or the Gillette or whatever. And I thought, oh, this is great.
It's got like three blades, you know, and this is the top it can ever go. We will never get to a
higher level than this. And then I got Harries. And was it four? Five. I don't know how many
blades it has, but it doesn't even feel like you're shaving. You're just kind of like,
wait, did that actually get it?
And then you look at it, it's all off.
You're like, whoa.
A little lubricating strip on the razor.
And let me tell you what else.
Let's say you're the dude here.
Is it Buster having a birthday today?
Yeah.
You notice he might have a bald head?
Yeah.
He would love Harry's razors.
Because it's just like, I mean,
the beating of shaving your head,
you wouldn't understand this for sure.
I feel you.
But the Harry's razor makes it so, so easy.
I suggest the Harry's Plus trial set for only $10 then.
And they, I think if you pay five or $10 bucks, you get a surprise gift.
I really enjoyed my big bottle of soap they sent.
What a shock.
Big bottle of soap slash dumbzone.
It's wonderful.
Just head to harries.com slash dumbzone.
Get your trial set.
Isn't it weird they're called Harry's, but they're taking the hair away from you?
Right.
Anybody ever think of that?
It's a good thing that Hitler's mom didn't name.
and love Jews.
Where am I?
What are we doing?
Oh, Viewer Mail birthdays.
Do I only have one here?
For today, Dear Uncle Hotmail, New York D.F.
Here.
Today is my Nolan Ryan birthday.
No.
My hero is the crime we all did
during the dark minutes under the path of totality.
Yeah.
The purge.
More Blake, more Julie,
Les Angelo, get a job.
hippie.
Sounds like he thought he had one.
P.S., I'm a friend of the
lesbian loft in New York.
Nice.
So when y'all come up for Giants game or Yankees
Rangers series, you have at least one more
listener that will be present.
Punt on first down and trust your D.
Let's put this on the list.
We do need to go up there.
I'm waiting on the schedule release.
Until next year from Justin S.
I would love to go to a Cowboys Giants game.
That is a dream for me.
Dream.
I did it.
It wasn't that great.
You're not a cowboy fan, and you've already said in this show that you don't like really going to football games.
MetLife is kind of boring.
I don't care.
I like going to pro sporting events.
It's very vanilla.
It's just more one of those things that I've seen.
I'd like to go to all three divisional games.
You know what I'm saying?
No one ever does the, hey, I'm going to go hit every NFL stadium.
Like, they do the baseball thing.
Yeah.
But no one wants to see like MetLife.
Well, I mean, I think that's...
No, I want to see the Cowboys play a division game on the road.
I want to see the Giants.
I'd like to go to Philly.
I've been to Washington.
I like it.
I like football.
Leave me alone.
Hey, I like football, too.
Yeah, I don't know if we'll do New York
because Seattle's also on the list.
I know.
Yeah, it'd be fun.
And I want to see the original 12th man.
Yeah.
That's where it was all invented.
I thought y'all were all high and mighty and wanted to go to Brazil.
Take my spot.
I think...
I think...
Dance up for anything at this point.
We should capture this while it's hot.
Oh, that's why I texted Blake not to cancel that one remote.
Yeah, we're going to do it.
You very easily talked into it.
He doesn't want to do it.
I know.
I don't mind.
I know.
But the way I think of this is...
I'm doing it.
We're spreading the love.
If my wife wanted us to, like, mix in unconventional sex all the time, I would do it.
Right.
But if there's ever a time where I'm kind of like, I don't know, but she's like, let's do it the weird way.
And she's into it, I'm immediately like, let's go.
Right?
I feel that.
So if Dan is up for getting weird, then it would be a crime for me to be like, no, only in the front hole this morning.
Anyway, community mechanical does bring us this.
Remember, as far as Travis is concerned, very receptive to you texting or calling.
He will answer you right away.
469-667-7-290.
You got yourself a website, community dfw.com.
That's our HVAC company.
Why not just sign up for a little preventative maintenance?
Sure.
Because then you won't have to do the big maintenance.
Maybe you run a business.
The PM eliminates or at least lessens the need for the BM.
Right?
Absolutely.
Yeah, Travis at CommunityDFW.com.
You could just email him.
But good dude.
Good company.
Also, you've mentioned before, they will help you in the commercial area.
Maybe you got a brewery.
I think, I know he is serviced.
They've put in the new HVAC system at one of the Conne Roses,
and at least one of the Game Day men's healths.
I remember when they had a little trouble, gave him a call,
and he was right out there.
But he'll do that for anybody.
And that's one of the problems I have with Travis.
Right.
Like I want him to just, like, treat me better,
but it turns out that anybody that listens to the dumb zone,
like he kind of gives them a little extra love.
Even if they're Brandon Aubrey.
And I wish I was treated a little better than most people are,
but I'm not.
So that's the one downside to Travis and community mechanical.
Now I've got to go to another tab here.
And tell you that today is Thursday, March 19th.
They brought a bun cake.
Are we doing a closing remark?
and stuff?
Yeah.
Who's doing closing
remarks?
It's going to be Buster.
Come on.
You want to join us now?
Well, I'll throw you some birthdays.
On this day in 1966,
the Texas Western Miners
defeated the heavily favored Kentucky Wildcats
72 to 65,
winning the NCAA championship.
What was very noteworthy here
is that Texas Western
was the first basketball team
to start five black men.
players in a national title game.
And it was especially jarring because Kentucky was famously all-white.
Adolf Rupp.
Rupp Arena.
I once slept in the parking lot of Rup Arena.
Yeah, and you see, that's the thing where the basketball was related to the racism.
Yeah.
Yeah, but they were pretty good.
Right.
I'm just saying if...
Like, how come we, again, do we need a movie about the last all-white team to
win the national championship.
Like, think of the odds against Kentucky, still being in the national championship in
1966 as the rest of college basketball is integrating.
You're saying they're the heroes.
I'm just saying it's quite a, they're really those underdog stuff.
Kentucky.
I'm not saying they're heroes.
I am saying it is a story of, you know, the last something you want to, sometimes you
want to ignite, like.
Did you say something?
video of the last dodo bird?
I mean, let's see.
What happened?
You said something there that I laughed for 30 minutes by myself the other day,
just thinking of how obsessed we were with Charlie Sheen just saying winning.
Winning.
How did we collectively lose the plot so bad for...
I'm going to get that drop.
Winnie.
What were we doing?
I don't know, but I was buying a Sheenya shirt when I went.
to see him at the AAC.
What the fuck?
I guarantee there are more people there
than will be at an average wings game.
You're probably right.
On this day in 1991, Brett Hall of the Blues at the time
became the third NHL player to ever hit 80 goals in a season.
Can you imagine that?
No.
80 goals in a season.
One of the few sports that just somehow like stopped being,
Their heyday was the late 80s and early 90s,
or 80s and 90s, right?
I mean, I think it's rules, right?
I don't know specifically what they are.
But I mean, most sports are trying to get their rules
and shape them so they'll be more scoring.
And there was in the mid-80s and whatever.
Like, it was great.
It looks like 1981 was about the peak
when you almost got to four goals a game per team.
Gratzky killing it.
Right now you're at 2.9.
On this day in 1996,
Nelson Mandela,
who was released from prison
after 27 years in captivity,
a few years prior,
got out of prison, his wife stayed with and stayed faithful the whole time.
He'd been married to her for 38 years.
On this day, he divorced Winnie Mandela.
Look, I'm out now.
That...
There's a lot out here.
That's true, right?
That's absolutely true.
Like, that should be a bigger part of the story.
I mean, we talk about Newt Gingrich.
Can we still have Nelson Mandela Avenue or no?
It's not rape, but your wife staying with you for four decades of imprisonment
and you divorcing her the day you get out.
That's not the day.
It was a few years out.
Feels like...
I like...
The day would be back.
Feels like you were thinking about it.
Probably the whole time.
This is the day in 2003
that President Bush
ordered the start of war against Iraq.
Now watch this drive.
On this day in 2012,
Wendy's overtakes Burger King
to become the second best-selling hamburger chain.
8.5 billion in sales
beats Burger King's 8.4
despite operating fewer stores.
Let me tell you
a little problem I got in my life right now.
They're building a Burger King the 100 yards from my house.
Really?
North Coast Highway?
Yeah.
Well, where else would they build it?
Yeah.
And I, you know, I hadn't been a Burger King guy in some time.
Now be calling you?
Well, here's the thing.
If it's right there.
It's right there.
If you live near a Burger King, you'll smell the Burger King.
Yeah.
It's got to be the most aromatic fast food restaurant.
If you're near it, you know.
And now I'm just going to have like burger perfume in my neighborhood at all times.
I just don't think this is going to go well for me.
We got babes behind our house, as you know, roof snow.
And every Sunday morning, we are...
You smell biscuits.
Man, man.
I don't like that.
Mm-hmm.
I don't like that.
And on this day in 2024, Finland ranked the happiest country in the world by the United Nations for the seventh year in a row.
What is the lowest ranked?
Wait, you said that list.
Finland was happiest?
Finland was number one the happiest.
How many countries get ranked?
Like, is it 250 or something?
I don't know.
Yeah, let's say that.
I don't have anything except the highest and the lowest.
Okay.
Well, because I was going to say, like, if it was all of them,
certainly that, like, you know, not just develop nations.
But lowest, I'm going to say Russia.
Give me Chad.
That's a thing.
I don't know.
I guess?
No, I do not.
Okay, all right.
Well, it's smart.
It apparently is Afghanistan.
Afghanistan is what we're looking for there.
What happened there?
Get it together.
Afghanistan, the lowest.
I thought they were really happy there.
Yeah.
They seem super welcoming.
They always have guests over.
Cool hats?
Yeah.
It's the new Crandall, they're saying?
Super cool.
That's, yeah.
And today is March 19th, this day in Dumb Zone history.
Let's see.
In 2020, we're in the thick of it, coronavirus-related.
And I guess in Louisiana, they were having a really hard time getting people to wear their masks.
They have a hard time getting them to do anything.
So they were thinking, how do we relate to these kids?
A.
Forever winning team, a key to success has learned to play ball.
That's true in football, and it's also true as we take on the coronavirus.
The spread of the coronavirus is a serious matter,
but there's a game plan for keeping residents as safe as possible.
Everyone has a role to play as we face this challenge together.
Okay, so you remember, like, the whole, the tour that McCona had to talk to Texans.
Oh, yeah.
Like every state had their guy or whoever to try to get people to participate.
Yes.
That's true.
You find your mascot.
But hey, Kimosabi.
Yeah.
Throw that in 95 on.
And so the first was just the generic PSA.
And then the next step of this was they had to start talking to doctors.
Hey, Doc, do you think we have football season?
That's a good question, coach.
It depends on what we all do right now.
It's essential that we all follow the CDC's and the government's recommendations
regarding hand washing, social distancing, and staying at home.
God.
We lived through that.
We did.
You want to hear some of this?
Am I up?
Yep.
Imagine how this day.
The greatest phrase speech.
You say, let's go lose all you want, but you know what?
We.
We.
Guy who is taking pop-up song way too literally.
It's my effing daughter.
Wasted.
Yeah, but very logical, very like, let's go blues.
This is the wrong tense.
That was the rally cry previous to now.
Because once you said, let's go.
Former co-GM of the stars.
Former full-ass GM, like that.
Yeah, they might have had a handholder with him.
The year before.
They have a nerd that's it.
It might have been Army.
It might have been, yeah.
Was he the assistant g-inator they brought in that Sean Avery?
Sean Avery was in Brent Hall.
Yeah.
Sticked his claim.
He got us Brad Richards.
Five assists in his first game.
Davis got his bowl.
But if you recall, it might not have been the year prior,
but it was within two or three years,
he worked for the stars, and his title was Ambassador of Fun.
He was that.
He was fun.
But what a rise.
There is nothing more they have to do.
We got it.
Nothing.
Change the song!
One of the best...
Were you on that bus ride?
No.
Where he told the guy to change the song?
We were on a...
The Stars Media bus,
which would show up to the game,
like, right before the game.
And Brett Hull would be on that bus.
Not the one where you get in to watch skate
and talk to the talk shop.
Just the one that gets there real late.
And, yeah, they had a station on
that did not resemble...
resemble the Pizza Hut jukebox, and he said, hey, classic rock.
Find classic rock.
Like he needed classic rock.
Yeah.
So we could hear a little, I don't know, black magic woman.
I can tell you this.
If you're on the road with them and the Stars win in the media bus, it's just you're handed a beer.
Oh, yeah.
You don't really have to ask.
Yeah.
It's pop the top time.
Other birthdays today.
Wait, is that it?
Yeah, it was a high.
Yeah.
Damn, it's only a high if we don't...
Elsewhere, Clayton Kershaw is 38.
Sammy Kershaw.
Oh, we actually need to win this game.
No, no, no, no, no.
Tell Clayton to sit down.
Does he know Matthew Stafford?
Mason Miller.
Andy Reed is 68.
Damn.
Nico Collins is 27.
He's the Nico we don't hate.
Is he overrated?
Is he good?
I think both of those things.
It's kind of good, but he's...
possibly overrated as well.
C.J. Stroudgood?
Would you give a first?
No, right?
I don't think so, but...
Rick Meyer.
It's like St. Brewery.
He had a nice old career, right?
He's 56. I think he had a nice career as a backup,
but he was the number two overall draft pick
in the year that Drew Bledsoe was the number one.
God, how boring.
Just think about how far the NFL has come.
Your top two picks are just the most boring dropback passers you could ever imagine.
Steve Rick and Drew.
Steve Gleason is 49.
You look hard enough.
You can find a conspiracy theory that thinks he's not actually paralyzed.
Boy, looking at his body kind of looks like he is.
He'd want you to think that, wouldn't he?
I think he's gay or blind.
Or paralyzed.
He, of course, has Luke Gary's disease.
Folk hero in the 504.
I thought we cured that by dumping water on ourselves.
Didn't he also do a big...
Had a big play in the first game after Katrina and then New Orleans was healed,
and everything's been great since.
Hito Turcalu, 47, made last money.
85 million.
Times two.
85 million for Turcalu.
Chris Kamman, 86.
Hito was a better player than Chris Kamen.
But, yeah, the NBA has some dumb money, man.
Vladimir Konstantinoff is 59.
Buster, you seem to know your hockey.
What do you know about Vladimir Konstantinov?
Good dude.
I liked to party a little bit.
Smoked between periods.
Actually, I don't know anything about him.
So that was just boilerplate racism.
Boy, I was following him.
He was doing Sergei Zubov.
I think he's probably right.
I bet he's like every Russian player.
But what you need to know about him is that he was drafted by the Detroit Red Wings.
But there was no way for them to ever get him because he was a Russian.
And so a guy who worked for the Red Wings helped him defect, helped get his family out and everything.
And that guy is named Jim Lights.
Wow.
I'd love to talk to him about that.
I believe, yeah, I think we talked to him many, many,
many years ago about that and how he had to very clandette i mean it was spy stuff man he was it was
climbing through windows and escaping through bathrooms and that's crazy you hear about that in
baseball in the alley that that's wild jump in that car and we'll make sure at the same time though
we have to be getting your family out at this time you know is because i uh you asked earlier
if i was a baseball nerd i was even more of a hockey nerd than baseball nerd and so when i was
growing up, and maybe a lot of this is just like the imagery, but the Red Wings were like the
Russian team to me.
That's why.
And it wasn't until way later that I realized, like, Jim Lights was involved in that at all,
but it seemed like if you were coming over, your Russian, you're playing that.
For a little while.
Yeah.
Because they had this, you know, he was drafted, but like 200th overall.
Yeah.
Because it was like, ah, why are you even drafting him?
Okay, well, what if we go helping defect?
Okay, yes, when they defected.
Get in the car.
I talk to myself in my horrible Jim Lights voice often.
They had to take him to take his family by train to Budapest.
Jim Lights met them there.
They hopped on Mike Illich's private jet, pizza, pizza.
Wow.
Yeah.
And went back to Detroit.
That's awesome.
I'd love to talk to.
We actually, you know, Spinks is related to him.
Our good friend.
Oh, wow.
Instead of saying,
Dude, look at it.
Let's go, Blues.
We're going to say,
we went Blues.
So he's trying to get the crowd to follow him,
his logic, and they're like, what?
No, we're going to stick with DMX.
Okay, so he wanted to secure an army discharge for Konstantinov.
With cash provided by the Red Wings,
they bribed six.
Russian doctors to diagnose and then confirm that he had
inoperable cancer.
Okay.
And secured a medical discharge from the military in 1991.
Bought him out of his contract.
Yeah, basically.
I know that...
After a Stanley Cup finals win, they got an accident in a limousine,
and he was in a coma and impaired, like, now he's still...
Yeah, because he was going to...
be like one of the great of all time, right?
Like as you just thought of as that over there.
I know that like we bitch a lot about how American government works,
but I think most people here don't realize what a big deal bribery is almost everywhere else.
Like we do it, you know, there's ways.
But in Russia, Latin America, it's a lot of like, you know, you're just going to have to pay me for this.
Yeah.
It's really it.
In American, America, people find the party.
Right.
What a country.
In Russia, party find you.
You guys got to go to Branson.
Glenn Close is 79.
Just make sure you get there by four.
Bruce Willis is 71.
I love Glenn Close.
I always have.
Ooh, I'm anti-Glen Close.
She gave me the creeps and fatal attraction.
Yeah.
I like that.
What kind of comment?
Is Bruce Willis still with us?
Like, I mean, I know he's alive, but is he?
I think it's a sad.
It is sad, but they A-Ied him.
Oh, good.
Do you remember that story?
He was one of the first celebrities.
That's part of the sadness is because his family is cashing in on him.
I think he's got a young wife, too.
Have you seen we might be losing Chuck Norris?
Oh, really?
Rush to the hospital in Hawaii.
He's ducking my smoke.
You don't want to see me at the GSE.
Boy, he's going to wake up and he's going to just rip the shit out of his arm and get out of there.
scale down the
dude that's still
that's an actual scene
in Fast 5
the rock
who's at a commission
for a big part of the movie
I think you might have seen that scene
he's in a hard cast
and he's just like
he just flexed it
just breaks it
I met Chuck Norris
outside of Gravely Mills
probably 10 years ago
everybody in this room
can take him
he's a squirt
he's a little guy
he's he's a little guy
He's a chipper.
He's cute.
I love the idea of Chuck Norris at Great Pine Mills Mall.
Harvey Weinstein is 74.
I get by karate stuff here.
He's bouncing back, right?
He could take Chuck Norris.
He said that the women are lying.
Harvey's fighting back?
They're just exaggerating.
Oh.
Let's give him a little grace.
He appeared in court this morning.
He made swingers.
Eduardo Savarin is 44.
Who is that?
How do you not know?
He's the co-founder of Facebook.
You know the other guy.
This guy's like...
He's the one who got screwed?
This is the not Mark Cuban guy.
I don't know if he got screwed.
The Winklevye got screwed.
Yeah, is he one of the Winklevoss twins?
Sirhan, Sirhan is 82.
He assassinated.
I tried to.
RFK.
Oh, no, did, yeah.
He's a dead.
Yeah, yeah.

Dumb Zone birthday of the day
By a landslide
30 years old
Young Gravy.
On the phone now.
We couldn't get him.
I think Jake and Machine
went to his concert in Atlanta.
I think once
I had a lot of people believing that.
Here's the proof.
Young Gravy.
The song is actually worse than his name.
I honestly didn't
know that Young Gravy was
not a joke until today.
He looks like a joke.
Jake is going to Atlanta to see him, and they're all wearing tuxes.
He's playing with the Atlanta Phil Harmonic Symphony.
And I thought that was a joke.
He's actually, you know, let's tell Corby.
You don't think he's actually going to see Young Gravy, right?
He's going to see Young Jeezy.
The joke was Young Gravy.
Dan was just making fun of him saying Young Gravy.
Right there.
I heard Dan talking about it today.
I was like, Young Gravy.
wearing a tux to see young gravy.
Now hearing this with an orchestra,
I'd be lit.
Whoa.
That means a lot of people believed it.
Yeah. Just people listening.
Yeah, I think if you think you need to tell me this, that's interesting.
At some point, I just stopped replying to people who were like, I've tried it, man.
I'm like five songs in.
I don't get it.
Like, is there something?
Where should I start with gravy?
You're the gravy boy.
Who do you have for the gross of this year?
I don't vote on that, and I don't.
I think the Florida State kid is going to be good.
I understand that...
Man, I love fun.
Asking my friends to take an artist named Young Jeezy
much more seriously than Young Gravy is an ass,
but one of them is an actual real thing.
Dude, Young Gravy...
It's pulling a lot of wool.
Didn't he, like, make out with some...
Like, he's into the old.
Yeah, like some actresses' mom at it.
award show or something.
He's a hot dude.
So is Jeezie.
Born in the Stay Now Dead,
Jay Burwanger,
the first Heisman winner.
There you go.
Jack O'Dell,
the inventor of matchbox toys.
What does that mean?
The little car, he's like,
what if he made a little car?
So like Hot Wheels?
Is a matchbox car
descendant?
I'm saying yes.
Like downstream?
Okay.
If you're putting me on the spot to ask, what does that mean off me just reading one thing I saw?
Dead on this day is still dead.
John DeLorean.
Calvert DeForest, who is Larry Budd Melman.
And M. Emmett Walsh.
He was a great character actor, especially in Raising Arizona.
Oh, yeah.
And that's what happened.
Been in some Tim and Eric, I think.
It's kind of what Afro Man reminded me of.
Like it all felt very tim and Eric.
Like, what are we?
Is this real?
Okay, so Buster here is here for, we're here for his birthday.
It is closing remarks.
We can say it is brought to us by Game Day Men's Health.
Just another reminder, gameday men's health.
Gameday.com.
That's right.
If you want to just be ready for her.
She gets back from Book Club, she might want to fold around.
And if you're not ready, that opportunity doesn't come up very,
often.
Yeah.
So when she gets home, have your fairy wings on.
That iron is hot.
Yeah, that's right.
Maybe she wants to do a little fairy porn.
Well, yeah.
Whatever.
Do they ever roleplay that stuff?
Do you think anyone does?
Yeah.
Accetor.
Are there any couples?
A quarter of thorn and roses.
Because you've heard of, like, people that will roleplay the, oh, pretend you're selling
something at the store, at the, at the,
You're coming to the house.
Or pizza?
Yeah, something like that.
Lawn guy?
Yeah.
Absolutely.
No, no.
Valerie over there,
she'll get stuck in the washing machine from time to time.
Yeah, okay.
Game day's men health.
Men's health has me ready.
Game day.
Dot dumbzone.com.
Just in case Valerie is stuck in the washing machine.
She was reaching for it.
Yeah, like she does dishes.
Like she's reaching in the back for a dish that got stuck for sure.
Oh, you can't get out?
Yeah, help me out of here.
Help me out of here.
Watch.
Wait, what are you doing?
Right.
I'm sorry, honey.
I went to Game Day Men's Health, and I mentioned the dumb zone.
Got to jostle you forward to get you back.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
All right, yeah, so Buster, we're here for his birthday.
Uh-huh.
It's just us.
But it's just, yeah, I thought there was going to be like 50 people here for your birthday.
No, no, no, no, no.
I'm a much more chill than that kind of guy.
I was hoping two people would be here.
They're going to be here soon.
Okay.
I mean, there are other people in this establishment, but they're not here for you.
They're giving us the UDF.
They're very confused.
We get that a lot.
Trust me.
That is not uncommon.
Yeah, yeah.
So, no, I'm stoked.
I'm really chill, but at the same time, I've been following y'all forever.
Like, a moron dog.
I think I was at that remote with my dad.
Or wait, that wasn't S&B.
No, that's Dallas, some restaurant, right?
Moron Dog actually was in a back room
Oh, pardon me
Of a camp
Of training camp in Wichita Falls
Pardon me
There was some
I brought my dog to training camp
Maybe Lee Corso, who knows
Right
Yeah, yeah no
And I was a ticket
P1
Like my dad told me about this new
All Sports Radio Station
And I'm like eight
So that doesn't mean anything to me
Like I
Like a new one, cool
Right right
That didn't mean anything.
Yeah, no.
You mean not just Galloway?
Yeah, how are they going to get away with this?
Right.
So, no, no, no.
My dad, he's an OG in as far as listenership with the ticket.
He basically just did the Louis C.K. clown thing, or like we've talked about doing with Mavs' man.
Yeah, have your own party for you.
Well, no.
We are at a public establishment, and this is a lot of fun, and there's another dude here who knows us.
but if you had us just to your apartment.
Dude, and I thought about having you all out to our house.
You guys have so many successful people
that have you out to these penthouse, beautiful places.
I'm like, this is my house in North Richmond Hills.
I think you know we would have been fine.
You didn't have us out of just embarrassment, of worry that.
No, no, no.
This is like my dream 40th, which is I'm turning 40, Lordy, Lordy,
and this is everything,
I can imagine.
Yeah, not, yeah, this is a very chill spot that I love to spend time at.
And I have my favorite people here with me, which is y'all and my wife.
So, uh, oh, my daughter just showed me.
And your daughter.
Hey, this is Mindy right here.
Your daughter is one of your favorite people as well?
Oh my gosh.
I was sad when I found out she was staying the night at my sister's place last night.
Oh, you got a sister, huh?
Yeah, yeah.
All right.
Michelle, she's yoga instructor, and as far as I know, she's single, fellas.
Wow, what a sales job on that.
I know, right?
Yeah.
She's even got a shirt that says, Aunt Vibes.
That's right.
She's the fun aunt who doesn't have to do the real dirty word.
When my daughter decides to run away in a few years, that's where she's going to end up.
Nice.
That's right.
First cigarette.
Right.
First cigarette.
You could try pot, honey.
Oh, yeah.
No, she can smoke a girl dad, huh?
Yeah.
Girl dad.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, she's an incredible.
person. Doesn't matter if she's a girl or boy. Yeah, Dan. Well, I was a girl dad, and I only
pointed that out just because everybody knows it's a little harder, harder job to actually
for me to have to pretend that the burden. Right. So I just, for closing remarks, I just have a
couple of quick ticket things. Donovan, does he really poop naked? Like, is that a bit or does he,
is that legitimate, like, he's got to get naked to poop? Now you're,
assuming that one of us has been in there while he's doing that.
Of course I am.
Yeah, I've never seen it, but I think he's a very trustworthy individual who would never lie.
Don't you think he's one of the most trustworthy guys that you know?
Without a doubt.
Yeah.
He's a great personality, and I would put him up against any on-air personality that is out there.
We're probably not having to change his street name.
No.
Right, yeah.
No, that one's safe.
I feel good about that one.
Yeah.
Lewis Lane is safe.
Let's see.
Let's see if you'll do the rest of him with his daughter standing there.
Are you kidding?
There's nothing that I could say.
Hey, Mindy.
Oh, no.
Say fuck.
No.
Just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
Just kidding.
You see the confusion in her face.
She's three and a half.
I'm curious, you used to do the Stars post game.
How many interactions have you had with Daryl?
is he a good dude? I want him to be a good dude. If he's not, I understand. Because I know
Ralph Strangis was his partner, and I know that they don't necessarily talk a ton.
You know, like they're not friends, you say. But I am curious as to whether or not, like,
you have a list of people you want to be good dudes, but you don't necessarily think they are.
Is there all right a good dude as far as you know?
I'd say absolutely a good deal. Yeah? Yeah, I've never heard anything about him to suggest otherwise
and the way he's always been towards us.
He's like the king of that.
I have one complaint.
Really?
He's the king of the media bus, though.
Okay.
There's no doubt.
He's like one of the coolest him efforts you'll ever meet.
My complaint about him is one I was reminded of the other day
when I took my daughter to basketball skills class
because it's at a gym where they have volleyball.
And it's a very, very popular volleyball gym.
And they have all the girls who were very successful with volleyball
who trained their big pictures of them up there,
and one of them is his daughter,
who I know went on to play volleyball at Oklahoma.
And I only know that because Daryl Ray,
who knows that he's got 200,000 horny hockey fans
as his Twitter followers would tweet out photos
of his college-aged volleyball daughter.
And I think probably you shouldn't.
I think you just got to read the follower room and know,
don't want to do it.
Don't want to do it.
Right.
she's hot.
Yeah.
Is what you're saying.
Yeah, I mean,
it made it uncomfortable.
Yeah, I think you just don't,
you just don't tweet the picture.
I mean,
because that sort of raises the possibility
that you're proud of how hot.
And that gets into Dan and I
always talking about there's a level
you don't want your daughter to be above.
You prefer not.
And, you know,
he would tweet
the hot photos of his.
daughter like in a volleyball.
Now, that doesn't make him a bad guy.
It doesn't make him a bad guy.
I said I had one complaint.
Yeah.
Again, and one day she will be college age, my daughter, Mindy, and I hope that she is.
You'll tweet out her only fans.
Well, I mean, however you want to make money.
Part of this, the gear that they make the volleyball players wear, that's going to, if you're
hot, you're going to look really high.
Yeah.
Like, why not some loose shorts and a lot?
They don't have to be.
They don't even have, I don't need you wear an A and one, 11 inch.
seems like you could just wear regular like like soccer shorts are not as insane as volleyball shorts
yeah you don't need to see the whole the toes and the the knuckles why did that even begin
i don't understand why volleyball shorts are a thing but it's definitely a stigma for sure uh i'm sure
the guy who wrote this designed them it's a guy yeah of becoming a woman is all written by a man
right right i read a few expert excerpts on monday it's playing to be an athletic
to explain on being naked while you do it.
Harold Triaghan.
Yeah, not only is it a guy, it's a guy named Harold.
Harold Triak?
Okay.
Big Harry.
Okay, so.
Rolling.
He's rolling.
I grew up at the Texas Rangers ballpark in Arlington, and my dad, he actually, he worked there
a few years of security for sweets, and I just wanted to tell you all the story.
You've mentioned her on the show before, but the sports princess.
Ah, yes.
Man, the sports princess in my mind was an angel.
Like, I would watch Ranger games.
We'd listen to the sports princess after the game.
She'd play at Friday's Front Row Grill.
By the way, one of the coolest setups.
That was cool.
Man, you could go have a milkshake after the game,
I'm talking as an eight-year-old,
and you could just, like, it was a really cool experience.
That was a good spot.
And then they had the broadcast section.
I don't know the terminology, but she would broadcast from Fridays.
And the first time I ever saw the sports princess was the most disappointing moment in my entire life.
The sports princess.
It's radio, bro.
You build her up in your head.
She's got the most beautiful voice in the entire world.
She's talking everything you love.
She knows bad.
Every girl on radio I've ever heard I've loved.
Royce Clayton went three for three.
And when he hit that home run, it was a thing of beauty.
And then...
Cindy Skull.
And then the first time I ever saw the sports princess,
my dad saw in my eyes.
You know, I died a little bit inside.
And he was like, she's kind of more of the sports piglet, isn't she?
Aw.
And so for...
This is a different time.
Dad made different.
Sure, sure, sure.
Different time.
And, yeah, so in my brain, she went from the sports princess to the sports piglet.
Like the, what was the Olympic?
Olympic.
Yes, that's what my brain associates Olympic with is sports piglet.
And then I really enjoyed getting to meet Blake's family.
They are super sweet.
It was awesome.
I got to say hi.
And then I saw why he didn't want skin on skin.
Like he's working.
his kids over there, his wife's there,
and then he's like, he kind of nods
and waves over his kiddo.
And like, it was a very formal, like,
now you may approach me, son.
Like, it was absolutely,
yes, yes, they shook hands.
After a salute.
Right, they nodded, and they bowed.
And we went on from there.
No, that's...
Very disciplined.
Right, right.
I am a card-carrying member.
of the B.I. He's a great dude. Again, I feel the same way you do Blake as far as
Angela is concerned and everything he did win in with in that. It wasn't just great for the show,
but for humanity. Yeah, humanity. He, he did a good thing.
Plus Blake was laying groundwork, you know? He might score eventually.
Exactly right. Yes. And why are you knocking weird out? Are not like Garfunkel notes the same
bit? Like you earlier in this show?
I think Garfunkel notes have real musical talent.
I don't believe Weird Al does.
I could be wrong.
I feel like they do...
Why is everybody up my ass about this?
I feel like they do the exact same thing.
You don't come for a weird owl on my wife, bro.
Not open here.
Not open here.
No, no.
I'm a huge Garfunkel notes fan.
Macucci is great.
The other one's cool.
And then Clayton, I really enjoyed seeing him get super pissed when y'all played that
earlier.
Like, Dan was elated, but I saw...
Foodie K.
What was it you played earlier?
It might have been some audio for YouTube purposes.
It's going to get us in trouble.
Right.
I saw him pop a...
I saw him Papa Zen and he was looking...
He was playing a freaking whole song to the...
Afro-Man.
You tell me those things aren't going to trigger things?
It's interesting.
I don't know.
You were playing Afro-Man literal.
videos. I was playing Young Gravy behind the hardline talking about him for 15 seconds.
But you got piss and I really enjoyed it.
I enjoyed seeing that cross. All right, so that's everything I got. Thank y'all so much.
Again. Come check this place out. False Idol. This place is sick.
Right. Come do it. Just don't come here. Before, what time is Buster going to be? You're going to be here
all night? How long you stay in today? Oh, man. I'm hanging out. My buddies aren't going to be here for
another 45 minutes or so, and then I got some volleyball to go play in Grand Prairie.
You play volleyball?
Recreational.
I thought you were talking about playing pickleball.
Oh, I'm a multi-sport athlete.
All the balls.
Multi-sport athlete.
Prime time of North Richard Hills.
That's exactly right.
Thanks for having us, dude.
Happy birthday.
This was fun.
Thank you.
