Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello, I'm professional broadcaster Dan McDowell, letting you know that you were about to hear one of our free podcast.

So if you forgot how to use the 15-second rewind, that's dumbzone.com to subscribe. Now, on to today's program. Fairlease.org. That is where I would like to direct you to acquire your next vehicle, be it for you, a family member. Probably like your wife or kid. I don't know. It would be weird if you bought your uncle, or at least your uncle, a car. But it could also be a commercial situation. Because you don't love your family like I do.
Starting point is 00:00:47 I don't. But I would, if I had an enemy, I would send them elsewhere. Because Fairlease is going to treat you right. They're backed by the credit union to Texas. That means they don't have to call a bank. There's no middleman. They're going to give you a great rate. They're going to work with you. And they like working with Dumb Zone listeners because it's a good experience. Pleasure is all on that side of the table. Call Connor or Nick at 972-708-48-1815.
Starting point is 00:01:13 972-705-4815. Fairlease.org. Hit them up. Tell them the Dumbzone sent you. Now? I mean, hit the thing. Fair lease, when you don't know what to do about a car stuff is hard. You don't need a dealership, baby.
Starting point is 00:01:34 In the Dumbzone, I'm Dan McDowell. I'm Jake Kim. I'm Blake Jones. I feel like Blake's hair looks. A little out of sorts, a little wild. His hair looks nice. It just sounds like a bald guy, jealous of some hair. It just looks like a guy who rolled out of bed and is disheveled and has two crying babies handed to him.
Starting point is 00:02:29 It's a little oily, but that's kind of his vibe. It's just long. You said you were going to get a haircut. I know. I didn't. So it's like if you said we're going to get Mexican food and then you end up going to sushi, you know? Used to whenever I get fired up for it. People don't know.
Starting point is 00:02:45 They're fired up for Jake's, or Blake's head. They're really, they don't know. They're not tired at all hearing I used to drink a lot. But when I did and I would get accused of that, especially if it was by someone else who drank, I'd be like, well, what are you got going on, right? The point here, Dan, is let's not talk about Blake. What? Let's talk about you. Why?
Starting point is 00:03:05 Because you're drenched. Look at you. hats all fucked up. Your hat looks like it's got a vagina on the top of it. You were panting. You hit the sound weird. Branda. And I got here. Hold on. Hold on. I saw you. But what's your plan for the sandwich? Are we going to wait until the break? Well, I wanted to eat it during your fairly spot. You did. You gang. And then you made me think of a funny line. I had a third of the sandwich pregame. And now I'm just worried. Yeah, I ate one bite. But I, and you don't want me to eat on the shows, what you're saying? Are you intimating?
Starting point is 00:03:39 I'd prefer. I don't think he's the bad guy for not wanting you to eat during the show. All right. We'll be back in a moment. You know Hock toa girl? Oh, wait, no. Okay. We're not doing that. Yeah. I got here at quarter till 11. I was like, this is great. Yeah. Because I, you know, paid the rent today at the gym. Somebody's wife is home. Wife is home. It's time to leave. Yeah. We're staying late at the office. We go in early. this is what we do every day, honey. You just don't, you work at a school so you don't know this.
Starting point is 00:04:14 Yeah, then I just thought I'd have all kinds of room for activities, but then I got to talk into Clayton a little bit. Then I got to talking to our man downtown, John Kukla. Then we did a little pregame meeting, you know, then all of a sudden... In my experience, very few weaknesses in your game, knowing what time it is, it's in there. But we always, I'm always here to start the show on time. Oh, no doubt.
Starting point is 00:04:41 But like we're on the road or something. You'll just be. And I'm also. That's all wet now. Yeah. So I didn't think you needed to acquire food. Like you would basically, you're like a bear at this point who's stowed away all of his fish for the summer. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:00 I could just eat fish right there. There's a prana. It's not piranha. You can't eat piranha, can you? I hope not. I bet you would. You can. And then this effing building across the street, downtown Dallas, I pay my taxes.
Starting point is 00:05:16 Lots of them. And it's the Renaissance Tower, the Wren Tower, they call it. IMP painted it, built it brick by brick. Manatees. Some think, was it alien? No, it was actually I am paid. Eighth wonder of the world. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:35 And so you go there and they're like, oh, so you run across the street and you're like, okay, here I am, I'm going to go get my food. I don't know which of these eight doorways I should pick. There's so many. They're all glass and it's great. This one, this one, actually, none of them. They're all closed. You can't go in. It's an exit.
Starting point is 00:05:57 So you got to go around the hallway and now, and it's a million degrees. But game day men's health. Thank you, folks. Got me around that building. Gameday. Dot dumbzone.com, the Game Day Men's Health Studio. Yeah, I mean, my question is always like, okay, what if there's a fire?
Starting point is 00:06:15 Do these doors not work? It does say emergency exit only. Okay. Which means they work fine. And somebody's tired of doing their job. Right. Right. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:06:27 All this BS. And I'm a hardworking, tax-paying American. Now they're letting Brendan Sorsby play. Oh, my God. Like the guy, we have a sit... We're downtown. We are. We've already kind of established that
Starting point is 00:06:40 without officially saying it. The Game Day Men's Health Studio. We have a sit-in, and he is Andrew. Right? Did I get the name right? Or I forget it already. Yes, sir. Your name is Andrew.
Starting point is 00:06:52 And you know Blake. That's how you got in. That's how he got in this club. That's who you know. Because he knew Blake. Yeah. Does he know Donna Willard? He does.
Starting point is 00:07:03 I do. How so? Because of her kid? Yeah, we all went to the same high school. The trashy private school in Garland. So this is Andrew. Does he know that you view Donna Willard's son as your bestie? Oh.
Starting point is 00:07:17 And not him. Damn. Or did you tell Andrew he was your best friend? Here's how lame I was. I had co-best men at my wedding. Co? He was the best man? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:28 Half. And the other guy. Yeah. You want a co-best man? Both of them, what? You want them both hit? for the boys. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:38 What did you do on your, what was your bachelor party? He set it all up. Set it up, what was it? Now you can't say it sucked because he's sitting there. No,
Starting point is 00:07:47 I told you we were drinking vodka and Baja Blast. That was a couple weeks ago. No, we took a limo to Bob's, had a nice meal, and we hit Deep Ellum. It was a good night.
Starting point is 00:07:56 He did good. Is that the one where you left Ted Emrick in the lobby for three hours? No, that was another birthday party. Did you go to Bob's then? I did.
Starting point is 00:08:04 I've never been. It was your birthday? I've never been to Bob's. Oh, you know what? What's that? When I was traveling, a man named Heart Attack Man, I ran into him. Now I have to find this. I've got to think of what I had on me.
Starting point is 00:08:26 Because he said he won, he was planning to travel to Dallas. And so I think on the Normathon, he bid on a Bob's Steakhouse dinner. won it, but then his travel plans fell through. So he handed me this like $300 gift certificate to Bob's Steakhouse, and maybe we'll just take the whole crew. We could try. Do you guys eat dinner at 430? Go pat through your James Taylor Windbreaker and see if it's...
Starting point is 00:08:57 I bet Bob's actually is a pretty popular 435 place, you know, Olds with money. Do you think? Yeah, I bet so. But they stick around, though. Having a co-best man is not any more gay than having a best man. Like, how we've decided societally that's... You're my very best man.
Starting point is 00:09:18 Right. I mean, that's just as bad. Well, it's just you're putting somebody in charge. Someone's got to hold the ring. Someone's got to organize it. For the female, though. Well, I guess that's true. But I kind of ended up organizing all my own stuff.
Starting point is 00:09:32 I'm a control free. You kind of are. You kind of are. I'm like, I want to take it. And that's why you understand this guy, right? Yeah. Because we're like, hey, let's take something off Blake's plate. He's like, ah, it just adds more to his plate by trying to take it off because now he has to manage that person.
Starting point is 00:09:47 Now I got to work with somebody. Cool. Yeah. Anyway, I have a couple things I wanted to start with. Oh, I saw something very bold. Driving around yesterday, it was business Wednesday. Thank you, Sean Kernan, 360 wealth management. What a day.
Starting point is 00:10:06 I'm driving behind a car, I'm like, did I see what I thought I saw? And then he pulled off into, like, a business or something. I'm like, I got to go. So I turned around, I went back just to try and find that car. And then I found it parked. And I'm like, I wasn't seeing something. It's the boldest bumper sticker I've ever seen. Look at that.
Starting point is 00:10:33 Read it. Only gay cops give me. me tickets. That's good. Yeah. I was like, wow. That is good. That guy has...
Starting point is 00:10:43 Yeah. That's very good. That's even more than you would have ever done, right? Oh, way more. Because you would have not given him the satisfaction of knowing where you were or why you're traveling so fast. Sure. Back in the old days.
Starting point is 00:10:56 Letting them know about my constitutional rights. Yeah, that's along the lines of... Was shoe polishing? on cars and windows in high school? Was that a thing when you were around in high school then? Or did that not, was that a 90s thing? I mean, like, to hurt the car? No.
Starting point is 00:11:19 But to just say, just married or happy graduation? I feel like I see in movies, but then by the time, like homecoming. Yeah, yeah. And you'd have, like, you'd put a box around where the driver would be, and somebody would be like, haughty in a box. all sorts of things like that. The closest I ever got to only gay cops give me tickets is in the months after 9-11, we would just put the box on random people's cars and write al-Qaeda in a box with an arrow.
Starting point is 00:11:54 And somebody would just come out for work in the morning, some 40, 45-year-old guy in the suburbs in his car would. That's good. See, that's good vandalism, right? Comedic vandalism. You're going to have to stop at racetrack on the way out of Wataga. It's not mean. It's not... You know, rinse it off? A bad word. It's comedy. It's a comedic vein.
Starting point is 00:12:19 And you know how I look at that now? I look at that now as a good thing because it's made me... It's part of making me a calm... Like, if somebody could throw a rock through my window and I'd be like, I earned so much more. I was going to say, what would happen if you woke up to that now to your car? I would laugh. You know I would laugh. You wouldn't even get it washed off. Look, you were all thinking it when I put it on the window.
Starting point is 00:12:46 Oh, that's fun. I can also give you a home story and it'll lead us into sports. Well, let me go first then. Okay. So yesterday, a lot of our phone calls, I was in the car. I was driving around the Metroplex, running errands, preparing to move out of my house, which is now a real thing that is happening in two days. your Airbnb for the whole month of World Cup.
Starting point is 00:13:10 You guys know me and you know how I kind of, like we started playing in the GSE in February. And when it comes to that sort of stuff, I think I'm pretty on top of it. But in my personal life, I kind of show up at the gym and they, you know, tell me when it's time to go. That's why I never know when I'm supposed to be on vacation
Starting point is 00:13:29 and Blake always book stuff. And then I have to tell him two weeks later, hey, I'm supposed to be off that day. My wife's really mad. because I never know what I'm supposed to happen more than I know oh yeah kind of but then in this like she's mad at me for some reason no no no no no no but we're actually moving out it's actually happening so I was like picking up you know my wife's on Facebook marketplace they women love Facebook again I was trying to tell Dan about it yesterday I was like dude you just have to look at it like golf like it's a hobby because there's no way it's what dude I drove to little elm is that what drove got to all the women back to Facebook? Marketplace? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:10 For sure. Because I told her about the Wiley Flower Shop the other day, and she already knew about it. Oh, yeah, that was on Facebook a couple days ago. It's like a little trading post for them. It's like they're back in junior high summer camp or something trading bracelets, except it's dressers. It's like a garage sale. Like our parents used to take me to garage sales like every weekend. Now it's... All the time.
Starting point is 00:14:31 I don't know what started it, but yeah, antiquing is back. hard. So I went and bought a bed or picked up a bed in Little Elm. Way far, far past Little Elm actually. What did you do to the kids' rooms?
Starting point is 00:14:44 So that's what... You have to make it like an adult room? Kind of. Yeah. But we've been... Here's a thing. Right now, anyway, she's viewing this as an opportunity
Starting point is 00:14:55 to thin out the house. That's good. So it's almost like we're moving. This is what you want. It's 100% what I want. And you just did it with your your reno. Pretty much, yeah, but you know how it is with kids.
Starting point is 00:15:07 Stuff loads back up. My wife buys things. Oh, it loads up. At an addict pace. But it's actually happening. Where's the dog going? Well, so for the next week, I will be living at my mom's house, but they will not be there because they're taking my kids on vacation. So I'm just going to sleep.
Starting point is 00:15:25 You're the richest man alive. Well, my parents live in a rent house down the street. I'm just saying all this time away from your kids. Oh, in that sense, yes. There's no doubt. And do I have to feel bad about it? No, because they'll be at the beach with their grandparents life maxing. You're having a great time.
Starting point is 00:15:42 Yeah. Grandparents will be happy. They're happy. Now, where? Everybody. Do my wife and I sleep? For how long do you have here? Not in your mom's bed.
Starting point is 00:15:53 Probably six nights. Oh, I had that problem. We stayed at my mom's house years ago. and I think we slept in her bed. We changed the sheets. I don't think you can do it. I'm not doing that. Even when sheets change, you can't sleep in your mom's bed.
Starting point is 00:16:12 You know what's happened there. What? Ghosts probably aren't real. Probably hasn't been happening in a long time. You might be surprised. Ugh, all right. You think the olds are doing it? That's what he said.
Starting point is 00:16:24 They're doing it more than anybody, unfortunately. Game Day. com. So I was playing, Domino's with my grandpa last night. Heck yeah. And I can tell which women he likes in there because there's one woman he doesn't because he calls her that woman.
Starting point is 00:16:42 Everyone else has a name, but that woman over there won't leave him alone. He did say that this couple is moving in, but they can't move in together because they only have one room available and they don't want the same room. They're married? Married. And so the husband is moving in. and she's got to wait for the next available room. That's incredible.
Starting point is 00:17:06 Such a boss move. That's incredible. Hey, call me when... Call me when you get in. Dude, that's so awesome. And she's not even mad, right? They're both, they're so old, she'll go visit, you know. But he took the room.
Starting point is 00:17:25 Didn't give it to her, didn't wait. This is mine. I've seen a little bit. King. Yeah. No, my little personal story that will lead us into sports, we can make these guys the sponsor of sports if you want. So I've been telling you that we're going to schedule the new floors. They've been talking about new floors.
Starting point is 00:17:49 They, the wife, have been talking about new floors for such a long time. Did you have wadage in your cottage yesterday? Yeah, so Rick Renner came over. Whoa. He actually came over Tuesday after. afternoon. And, you know, he's an aggressive guy. And you're like, what will this be like? I didn't know what my wife, you know, my wife, as he was there and when he went upstairs to get something or went to his car or whatever, she's like, he's the greatest, whatever. I don't know
Starting point is 00:18:24 if you want to say salesman, because it wasn't that he was pitching her, like, we're already sold, right? we're going to do FlooringDirect, DFW.com slash DZ. That's our Dan Ratcliffe. I've known him for a long time. I've heard from a ton of people who have gotten work done from them. So I already know that they're awesome. I know they give great deals. And I know they have everything that you could want.
Starting point is 00:18:47 They have a showroom, but they bring, but they're like, we bring the showroom to you. And even my wife heard that and was like, all right, I guess they're going to bring these tiny samples. They're not tiny samples number. one. They're not little tile. Like, they're like pillow-sized. They're all big. And he's got his whole car. He brought like a whole store in. It was insane. And just to watch Rick Renner in his element. And my wife's kind of corny too. She doesn't mind a dad joke or two. So she loved
Starting point is 00:19:20 this guy. She's clapping. And then he's, well, he'll start into something. He'll be like, so he's showing you the stuff. And then he's like, oh, of course, when you work in flooring, you're going to have stories. Like, as if everybody would know that. Like if you said... Like, it's Sealed Team Six. Or yeah, it was like he's the emergency room overnight at the hospital on weekends. You know, it's like, no, I wouldn't have thought that, Rickrenner.
Starting point is 00:19:46 What's the craziest thing you've ever seen someone do with Lenolium? Yeah, but he's got it. But he knows, like, all of the man... He's like, oh, that one is the leader in Laminate. Oh, that one is manufactured by this company in Rockwall. and we can get a good deal. And he knows effing everything. Is he the closer then?
Starting point is 00:20:04 I don't know. And then he's like, you know, she's talking about going to a warehouse or looking at it online. He's like, this is why you need it in your home because you see it under the light that's in your living room. You don't see it under the fluorescent light. So many people will go to a warehouse, get it installed and be like, I don't like the way that looks. I don't like the way that looks next to my... Anyway, I just want to say it was great. You let you test drive the floors at all?
Starting point is 00:20:31 Oh, christening any of them? No. Just have like a small amount of sex? We did not have any amount of sex. I didn't even think of that. Well? But I should have. I know how you and your floors are.
Starting point is 00:20:44 So flooring direct DFW.com slash Deasy. I swear to God, it's great. If you get Rick Renner, you can even, hell, I don't care, ask for Rick Renner. They probably got other good sales dudes there, too. Maybe even ladies. Just kidding. Slow down. Just kidding.
Starting point is 00:21:02 Women couldn't do that. From the wonderful world of sports, radio sports, scoreboard. Oh, yeah, I like that. Do you want to lead into the top story and just kind of make mentions of a couple little guys before we get to the NBA finals? Sure. Like our guy, Kyle Harrison. See what happened to him last night? I saw they blew a lead.
Starting point is 00:21:24 Was that? I must have been two nights ago when I was looking then. No, I didn't see this. Well, they had, the A's are playing just a six-game homestand in Las Vegas. They usually play in Sacramento, but they're playing at the Las Vegas minor league park, which they say, I don't know what this means, but I know it means it's small, a bandbox. Yeah. I've seen the stat cast numbers from some home runs that have left that park.
Starting point is 00:21:55 Jonah Heim hit one That would end up tying the game at 14 With two outs in the ninth Kyle Harrison is one of the best in baseball He came into this game with a 157 ERA And it's nearly the midway point of the season He now is a 272 ERA Gave up eight runs and two and a third innings
Starting point is 00:22:20 But I just wanted to let you know What's going on with the Brew Crew overall I think they might have the best record or close to the best record in baseball. We would expect nothing less here. Yeah, they're interesting. A couple weeks ago, there was a deal that went viral, at least on Twitter, that was looking at the raise approach to contact. And I don't know, the rays have always done their own thing.
Starting point is 00:22:50 I don't know that they've ever been like a team that was like ahead of the curve when it comes to power hitting because you kind of have to pay for that. But in any case, they have the most grounders. They make the most contact. They put the ball and play the most. Which nobody, it's very cheap now. Like the new market inefficiency is just playing baseball the way they did in the 80s. And not every single thing being a home run or a strikeout. And the brewers have a lot of that in them as well on the offensive side for sure. It's just different. Pat Murphy You know
Starting point is 00:23:28 Got the boys Another baseball game occurred Did you see? The Republicans won their six straight Oh no I did not It was the congressional baseball game In fact I was hoping you would see There was like one
Starting point is 00:23:48 The guy who won the MVP I should look it up I didn't print the stuff off So you got a C or B C Well, he is a senator or a congressman, whatever. He's a guy. And first of all, he tweeted out, I won the MVP. I don't know that you should acknowledge that you won the MVP on Twitter.
Starting point is 00:24:11 Why? I don't know. You're actually not humble if you say I'm humble that I won the MVP and put it on Twitter. Like you're now saying, hey, look at me. Did he say he was humble? Something like that. Okay. Maybe he said he was honored.
Starting point is 00:24:27 I mean, if I'm just saying, hey, dubs in the chat. Some of these articles, these political writers have to write a sports report. I can tell they've never done it before. It's Dork Central for sure. And if I'm going to be totally honest with you, I never knew this existed. Until the shooting. And the shooting was a tough one because it was like a Bernie guy, which should feel like the sort of thing.
Starting point is 00:24:54 I'm like, you know, you condemn, but you're kind of like, oh, wow, that came out of nowhere. The Bernie guy shot. I'm pretty sure he was, yeah, yeah, while they were practicing. But it's hilarious. Like, I remember seeing Chris Christie in a baseball jersey. Very funny. Very funny. He's not in Congress.
Starting point is 00:25:17 At one point he was. Oh, this is a bad look. Are you looking at Chris Chris? Christy? Yeah. Well, I'm trying to find the guy's name. I want you to see his supposed diving catch. Well, I'm reading about it here.
Starting point is 00:25:37 You got to take a look at it. God damn it. Just look up diving catch Congress baseball game. Schmidt made a fourth inning diving catch on a ball hit down the left field line, landed hard on the outfield grass, emerging from the ground with blood gushing from his nose and dirt covering the front of his jersey. And that got him the MVP. I just view it more as a fat old guy kind of tripped.
Starting point is 00:26:01 He could have just caught it running along. You know, you would have never fallen down. It sounds like a guy who's never caught a pass from Patrick Mahomes to me over there. Sounds like a guy who's caught many, you know, fly balls in left field, though, while jogging under the ball. And a guy who also has been fat and just tripped and fallen down. So I'm watching that saying, yeah, I've been there before. but this guy gets an MVP out of the deal. If the Democrats were serious, then they would start here.
Starting point is 00:26:36 And it's not exactly like baseball is the vast. Voting in like Rusty Greer and? Well, at a minimum, I mean, listen, there are ways to learn to do things. These people barely have jobs. Go get in the cage to get on some PEDs, right? Like, again, go go throw. That's not a bad catch, Dan. Don't just show up.
Starting point is 00:26:58 You think? That's not bad. Watch it again and again. Okay. That's what I did. Covered a lot of ground. He didn't fall gracefully. He covered some ground out there.
Starting point is 00:27:11 Kumar Rocker and the Rangers have an hour to change their mind about starting him today at 110 as the Rangers decided to go for 500 yet again. I looked this up. Can you open for him? It's crazy. So they said at the time they were going to circle back after they did it, which they haven't, really, right? Despite the fact that he's been good since then, but bad in the first inning. So it's almost, I don't know, like maybe the point was to get him to realize like, hey, even if you piss yourself in the first inning, the game's not over. I've been thinking about this lately.
Starting point is 00:27:49 So the thought is that they're not going to keep doing it because that could affect him mentally, right? Can I also say you brought up your guy who tracked a foul ball or his track many fly balls? I don't think like that. I started researching this and someone pointed out like this could jack up your bullpen a little bit if you really had to do it every single time. Because Cody Alexander is a pretty important piece. You don't just want to throw a spare out there for the first time through the order. but I would just think it moves it. So I don't know if I find that compelling or not,
Starting point is 00:28:23 but it's something I didn't think about. But that's kind of the same, along the same lines as I was going to say, because you said, that was your thought the other day, Blake. That mentally that could really jack him up if that's the only way. And I remember they kind of used to do this sometimes with guys who got a personal catcher. Like they made him work with other guys sometimes. Although you're like, yeah, it works with Greg Maddox,
Starting point is 00:28:47 likes his personal catcher, but doesn't it also mentally mess with you if you're yanking a guy because it's the third time through the order and I just don't, like I've, like you just do what's good for the team. You kind of don't worry as much about their mental. Like if he's going to break down mentally because of this,
Starting point is 00:29:08 I'm not sure I want this guy pitching for me in game seven of a World Series either. But maybe you don't, that'll never happen. So in your mind, you know, that's another thing I've thought about. That's kind of why I have the lack of evidence-based faith I have in the Rangers is just that if they get to a playoff series, the players on your team who suck matterless, at least on the pitching side, right? So to me, he'll never be in that spot.
Starting point is 00:29:38 They need him to cover bulk innings and not get rocked every, you know, they need to be able to skip some of these other guys every now. then because they're old. They need to be, but it's an interesting, because, you know, he's a first round pick. This is not a guy that no one's ever believed in. There was a time when people thought he was going to be good. And they're, you know, reasonably close to that now. All right.
Starting point is 00:30:04 The big story is, of course, the NBA. Let's mention a new sponsor right now before we get to that. It's megprimepay.com. Basically, this is a thing where you can pay your rent. through an app and then you can earn points through making the payments there's like a crypto
Starting point is 00:30:27 element in it as well but it's basically you know Megprimepay.com that's the way it is. You're not trading or speculating or anything like that it's a payment app with rewards. We've talked to these people a lot and if you're paying for rent or mortgage
Starting point is 00:30:43 big purchases like that you can use their payment platform, super, super straightforward, and they start giving you back, you know, credit card type rewards immediately. It's at megprimepay.com. Megprimepay.com. You're paying your rent every month. You're paying your mortgage every month, getting nothing back. You can fix that. That is what they would like to do for our audience. Megprimepay.com. Go check it out. Report back to us. You don't change your current behavior, right? You don't have to do anything. You're already paying your bills. You just go through Megprimepay.com.
Starting point is 00:31:17 It's the first of its kind. Check it out. So now. Speaking of first of its kind. I heard Windhorst say there's been 441 NBA finals games, and that puts it in perspective. Because if it ain't top three, it's... I mean, it's a different era.
Starting point is 00:31:36 I mean, we're squarely in it if you were thinking... That's true. Like this era, comebacks are available. Comebacks in series. Like, I will tell you that I may have increased my position this morning. I was thinking about you all night, of course. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:55 Am I shorting the Knicks stock? Yes. Is that what I'm doing right now? Wow. Because I am, I do have a small position on the Spurs, and I still believe in it because they were winning by like a million. As they have been in every game. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:11 So it's not, I mean, you can legitimately, look, if you're something, somehow not mentally crushed, because that's potentially mentally crushing, I suppose. But you have to be able to tell yourself, we can obviously play with these guys. We cannot, you know, we belong on the same court. Hell, if I change one play out of yesterday, I think they're walking home with 2-2. And it's not the tip-in. It is the worst decision I've ever seen by a guy that the spurs acquired
Starting point is 00:32:49 to help shepherd these young bucks into the next level. He's the guy that's going to be the steady hand on the helm. He is going to be the point guard. This is the veteran. Like if you're going to have a veteran amongst this group, I'd want it to be the point guard, right? This is the Chris Paul in Oklahoma City theory. Wait, wait, wait, it's a fat, you know, fat.
Starting point is 00:33:10 No, no, no, slow down. This is the time. to slow it down. Because not everything is equal, right? You don't play the same way in the first quarter as you play, you know, in the fourth quarter, if it's a tie game, whatever. But it's Deer and Fox, man. That was just a huge boneheaded mistake that he was asked about after the game,
Starting point is 00:33:38 kind of summarily dismissed it as, well, you know, I was just trying to make a layup and we go up three. So what? He gets a rebound. Was that a Brunson missed shot? Yeah, I think so because he was, you know, Wembe affected the shot again. Brunson's awesome, by the way. We have to say that.
Starting point is 00:33:58 He's going to get it off. But so now, yeah, rebound, long rebound. Deer and Fox has it. He's ahead of the pack. Ends up getting it blocked by Ananobe, who some are now saying that's our new MVP. I can see that one. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:18 Yeah. And yeah, so he tries for the late. There's 15 seconds left. You get the ball back. There's 14 seconds left in your hand as you start driving. That's where you peel off. Try not to get, you get fouled, right? That's, uh,
Starting point is 00:34:38 yeah. Oldest, oldest time. But it's just, it's not a real rebound. You know, the ball's loose. But you're a deer and fox, the point guard, the steady hand on the helm, and now you have the ball in enemy, now you can just settle. Let's all settle down here, right? That's what you're supposed to be the guy that does that.
Starting point is 00:34:59 He could have dribbled two more times and they would have a 3-1 lead. Just, you know, people were posting a clip of like Genobley doing that. 2-2. Once upon a time. Oh, excuse me, yeah, 2-2. Because that's, you know, game four has often been called the most important game in a series, you know? Because going to 3-1, going to 2-2. Now, 3-1 might or might not mean as much as it used to, but it's still only been overcome once in the NBA finals.
Starting point is 00:35:29 Do you remember what you wore right after that? I do. I was looking at it this morning. It was the Cavs. Going through my... Defeating the Warriors, and I think we all had some kind of bet on that. that but then we doubled down and i think i doubled down right when it was three one you did got you guys wearing lakers full uniforms calves full uniforms excuse me calves full uniforms at cowboys training camp yeah and i
Starting point is 00:35:56 wasn't even mad at it that was a really tense fun but tense time also for the noon to three show like just a lot of dogs just because i was like i didn't even care that was the most amazing sports performance I'd ever seen. I was so happy for LeBron in the city of Cleveland. Bob was not. And I think I said on the air that this is back in the days of DVR, that it was like the one thing that I had like gone back and rewatched and would never delete. And it really got Bob fired up. And I don't remember why. But do you remember that? He was mad? Because he was like, he was like that we were over indexing like how cool that was and how big of a deal that was. And I'm like, I don't think you were. Man, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:36:38 They were 73 and 9. Like, we were talking about all the... Yeah, it wasn't just down 3-1, the first team to ever come back. This is the storybook of all storybook, like, tournaments. And I don't know. You didn't remember how we were. Sure. It was a fun time.
Starting point is 00:36:57 Hostel. But Deere and Fox made several boneheaded plays last night. And you hate when it just turns out. into narrative town, but it kind of feels like they just don't have the experience. Wimby looked like he was going to piss himself at the line, taking those two free throws last night. I don't think he could have breathed deep enough to get his breath
Starting point is 00:37:21 to where he needed it to be. Do you buy that he was gassed? Yeah. That's a lot of minutes. Because they don't, he doesn't play a lot of minutes during their regular season. Yeah. They were up whatever it was, 20 or 30. Their coaches unexperienced or inexperienced.
Starting point is 00:37:37 Yeah, and then he had taken him out earlier in the game. And I can't remember the matchup, but they threw him right back out there after like a 50-second rest and you're up 20. Like, let's use this time to get him a little time. But, yeah, kind of threw him right back out there. Some are saying he was gassed in the fourth quarter. the other thought is just that they were not Okay, so if you look at the Falcons and the Patriot Super Bowl,
Starting point is 00:38:16 some of their criticism was that the Falcons didn't change the way they were playing in the second half. But you have to know there is a clock, and we can control that somewhat. when we're on offense, and the Falcons did not do that at all. And I don't think the Spurs were thinking about that at all in the second half either. I don't know what you think about this, because you got there with this way. You got built a 30-point lead like this. If I need to shoot, and there's 18 seconds on the shot clock, but I think it's a good shot, I'm shooting.
Starting point is 00:39:02 No, I think you change it. But, yeah, I do, I do, too. I mean, down the stretch, they were just chunking threes. You got an alien down there. Just whatever you can get in the mid-range. Fox is a good mid-range guy. Like, slow the game down. Get some twos.
Starting point is 00:39:17 I might not turn the dial to the way that we used to back in the day of, like, oh, we're going pre-vent type thing and four-court. But what it means to optimize the offensive possession changes with the score and the clock. and you absolutely have to be thinking that way. Obviously, right? I mean, look at an extreme example. De Aaron Fox at the end of the game. He needed to not score.
Starting point is 00:39:40 So there's plenty of other times. Generally, you would just go for that. So there's plenty of times throughout the game where I absolutely think. And that is coaching. But it's hard to think of it when you're up 30. Sure. You know, why do we change now? They're the ones who suck.
Starting point is 00:39:56 But, you know, you're still firing away. You're still just playing the way you were. but they're chipping away at that lead. Yeah, I mean, the reality is that right now, Wimby doesn't really have, like, I mean, he's, I'd say he doesn't have an offensive game. But compared to what he's going to look like when he's 26 or 27,
Starting point is 00:40:16 it doesn't feel like he can reliably just go get a back-to-the-basket. Like a go-to move? Yeah. Like your Dirk shot, your whatever, Luca can find his spot. Right. Brunson. Brunson has the whole, yeah. Brunson, it does.
Starting point is 00:40:30 I have no idea how he gets there, but he does. But you don't just go give it to Wemby and get out of the way. It's not there yet. So when the shots aren't falling and he plays his worst half of basketball and probably his career, they're a lot more human. And also the Knicks play a pretty crazy style. Not crazy style. They're just a very frenetic defense.
Starting point is 00:40:54 They seem to make teams nervous. Which again, we were told you could not do with Jalen Brunson as a starter. I would imagine if you're a Knicks fan, you're loving every time Wimby takes a three. Especially in the comeback. Like, it's so easy for you close to the rim. But you're going to shoot a 27-foot jump shot, have at it. Yeah, you probably take it. The other thing, are they, you know, why was Brunson played off the floor?
Starting point is 00:41:28 In doubt, like, is there a way for them to attack him more? Well, that's why I should have cleaned up what I just said. The issue was playing Brunson and Luca, right? And the Knicks, I guess, if you want to look at their lineup. Although, I mean, they get away with playing guys who are Jose Alvarado was on. Clarkson. They play guys who are not good defenders. So, yeah, you couldn't convince me a team with PJ Washington and Derek lively on it.
Starting point is 00:42:00 Is Luca that bad that you? No, I don't think he's. Brunson, they take him off the floor at the end of the game. Yeah, but you would do that. Luca, too. Like, if it's a trade possession thing, they're going to call a timeout. Most the point guards in the league, they're bringing off for that. But I don't
Starting point is 00:42:14 know, it doesn't seem to me like he's a liability. Again, they finished 10th in defense the next day this year. So they figured it out. Although the Mavericks had top 10 defenses with Luca for long stretches of seasons, including the one where they traded him.
Starting point is 00:42:32 In the games that he had played, they were top 10 on both sides of the floor. when they had KP and Luca they were and kid they had a top 10 defense so it's yeah I don't know the Clippers series that is the one that got Brunson traded it looked really bad at the time
Starting point is 00:42:50 but they probably out thought themselves you got a fucking Hooper keep it figure it out that's really all you know and I know that it's like a common thing on NBA social media now to be like, I don't even care about spreadsheets.
Starting point is 00:43:07 I don't care about 3&D. I don't care about shot optimization. I don't care about passes. Who's a dog? It seems like this comes down to who wants it more. And I swear to God, the older I get, the more I believe that. Yeah. Because their talent levels are too close, and it's all the old Cliffley thing.
Starting point is 00:43:26 Like, at that level, it really does seem to come down to. And that's hard because I don't like subjective stuff. I don't like making that the predictive factor. But I don't know. They went and got four college teammates and put them on the same team and they all hang out together and it seems like it's raised their level of play
Starting point is 00:43:46 a little bit above what their collective talent otherwise should have been. Has that helped the wings? How's their record? Two college teammates? Pretty good. Are they good? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:57 You're the one who knows. Yeah. No, I mean, the numbers are not going to tell you, but Wimby was playing scared in the fourth quarter. order. Right. And most of the spurs, a Fox, something was in his head. So yeah. I mean, also, dude, obviously it didn't pan out the way that they thought it would for 85% of it, but that's the most intense sports situation I've ever seen on TV. I can't. I could feel it. Yeah, I can't take my eyes off of it. All the celebrities in the building, the crowd going nuts. Just scrolling, watching all
Starting point is 00:44:29 the replays. It's unreal. Crazy. It, you know, it feels, it feels like, Roman Coliseumee, you know? Yeah. This is the closest we'll get. Presidents there the night before. Which, if they are going to win it, it would be cool if they won it there. I know. And not win it on San Antonio's floor.
Starting point is 00:44:47 I know. I think San Antonio has one more in them. Do they have three in a row in them? That would be hilarious. It would. It would be profitable for me. Oh, yeah. And that's how we started this.
Starting point is 00:45:01 And it would just be. hilarious for to see Spike League be all sad. Yeah, and you know what's funny is you pointed out, right, like the variance in these games feels a lot higher. I guess that's just a natural byproduct of more scoring. Because in every sport it feels that way now, right? The little no lead is safe, the passing, the threes, the home run, whatever. But it doesn't seem like we take it easy on calling people chokers in accordance with
Starting point is 00:45:31 it's become a way less of a feat, you know, to blow a lead. Nobody's like, ah, yeah, but it's, shit happens. I saw, and dude, Wimby's 22, and I saw he was getting, by NBA, like, they were talking about him, like they were talking about Luca a couple years ago. Like, oh, God, you could just see, does he have it? Like, e. He's young, he'll be fine.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Yeah, he will be, but I lived that life, dude. And I know that it's not the same as Dirk. And Wimby's immensely talented. He's more prepared, whatever. But it can be... What do you mean not the same as Dirk? I just mean he's not the same... The criticisms Dirk faced?
Starting point is 00:46:11 Yeah, Wimby's not... Dirk had it a lot harder. I don't want to compare their plights. People were really rough on Dirk. But once you acquire the tag that you got some bitch in you and you're a Euro, like... Well, also the next one is always going to get that, right? Yeah. He's a Jordan, he's a LeBron, he's a Luca.
Starting point is 00:46:34 And he knows it. He's, like, he is at that level. Like, I don't think even like Shea. He never, he was never anointed as the next one. He's thought of as a great player. Now, there are other guys that were closer than that. But when you're the next one, you're then going to take a ton of praise,
Starting point is 00:46:52 ton of criticism too. Because LeBron, after going to the heat, that was also viewed as a failure. and LeBron just doesn't have it in him. Number one, it was LeBron doesn't have it in him because he wants to, he needs someone else to be the best player on the team. He's not going to be.
Starting point is 00:47:08 And at the time, I was like, are you crazy? He'll be the best, he's... He's the best player ever. Yeah, possibly. So, yes, that he's not going to defer to, you know, Dwayne Wade. But number two, then, when he did meltdown against the Mavs, you know, did he melt down, or did the Mavs step? up. You know, Dirk certainly took control of it, but in that case, you look back at the whole thing
Starting point is 00:47:37 and you say, well, that's something, I mean, LeBron grew from that, and he really, you know, that helped him realize how difficult it is, because it seemed like it was going to be easy. After the first couple games against the Mavs, it was like, oh, he'll win the title. They just got their friends together. They're going to win the title. It wasn't even that easy. You have to maintain incredible intensity and focus and, you know. You got to have a coach. For the whole thing. You got to have a coach that you believe in.
Starting point is 00:48:07 So maybe this is just Wemby, you know, going through this will strengthen him immensely for the future. I love it. I love the story. I love the way that sports and the ball just seems to bounce in a way that produces these stories. I like Wimby. I think that it's cool that he's into different stuff. I'm a little bit, tiny little bit suspect of the performative nature of some of the stuff he does. Oh, yeah, he's self-aware.
Starting point is 00:48:42 Like, I'm going to walk the halls of MSG barefoot. Well, you also talked the other day about he was, I got an email about him doing art in the park. Yeah. Akka shit is up. Oh, is that Akkad? Yeah, it's like a private park. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:56 But clearly, though, if you are taking your stuff out there to draw, you know. Yes. Do you think people will see Wembe? Yeah, like people know what he's going to do. He was doing it so that that would be publicized. And I have a hard time. Look at the thoughtful Wembe. Look at.
Starting point is 00:49:12 Because he does like all this like. Like wearing the monk outfit. Well, he went to a, you know, a temple. And he studies Buddhism. And he's like he fast. And he does these things that if we were being honest, you know, religious advice that probably does lead to like a good centered happy life. The problem, this is a small problem I have, a little dissonance in my brain is he's also like
Starting point is 00:49:37 the guy who says, I only care, winning is the only thing that matters, is the only thing that feels in conflict to me. And I think sometimes I get annoyed when athletes try to use the thing. But I guess the way you talk yourself into it is that he uses that piece to get. to the winning is the only thing. But it feels kind of patronizing to me to use all this like religion talk about like really not
Starting point is 00:50:07 being too obsessed with any one thing. Right. And then say the things that he says. I find it a little bit annoying. And because of that... He's trying to say the right thing that the people want. Correct. While also weave in his own philosophical journey.
Starting point is 00:50:23 And shoving players' heads and getting flagrants. That's also true. But that stuff really bothers people, right? So when LeBron failed, yes, he had the decision. People were going to mock him. But at the end of the day, he was an American, and he was a bad MFer, and everybody wanted to be him. You're from France, and you're wearing a dress.
Starting point is 00:50:47 And you're not wearing shoes. And now I feel like people are probably, you know, he's got an uphill battle to face, I feel. One last thing on the atmosphere, because it's probably the most amount of money in arenas gotten for a game. Oh my gosh. But it's the most electric. Like, that's what we hear here, right? Is there's too many suites.
Starting point is 00:51:07 It's too expensive to go to a Cowboys game. That's why there's no home field advantage. You know, that's a really good point because for some reason, and I don't know if it's because it's football. I don't know if it's, I don't know what it is, but there's so much money in DFW and in Texas. it seems like when you see celebrities in New York at Knicks games, like they're going apeshit. Like they go crazy like regular fans. But you never see like Taylor Sheridan.
Starting point is 00:51:37 Like, I don't, maybe it must just be that it's the NFL. Chicken Joanna. But you don't even really see that, I guess. You know, in Mab's games, I don't know. You're just, you're never going to see people going crazy like the celebrities in New York do in Dallas. That last inbound pass was nuts. Like I was watching the SkyCam and you can see the overhead and there's a fan almost literally in the way of the inbound pass just like clapping defense.
Starting point is 00:52:09 And I was just like there's no other arena that happens in. Was that Rick Brunson on the baseline? I don't know what shot you're talking about, but probably. The entire second half, he was running out on the court saying, oh, out of bounds or foul. Like he was going nuts. Nobody ever stopped him. Yeah, they were just like, let him go. No one's listening to him anyway.
Starting point is 00:52:29 His whistle doesn't work. We give him a fake whistle. You mentioned the most money an arena has ever gotten. Like, can you imagine if they get a game six? Yeah. And knowing they could win the title on that night for the first time in 50 years? In fact, there was a lot of consternation about all of the Knicks fans that descended upon San is that going to be a big deal two nights from now?
Starting point is 00:52:56 Yeah. One night? When is the next day? Saturday. Yeah, I'm sure it will. Priced out. Unless they have the ability to change the way they did it from the game before, because I read something from some San Antonio paper,
Starting point is 00:53:11 and it was like, there's really nothing you can do about this. Yeah. So if you believe that things are fixed for money, then you should definitely put some money on the spurs. to win the next game because that could be huge. A couple other things. You mentioned the ball bouncing a certain way. Now, the Knicks have to win the title for these things to happen,
Starting point is 00:53:39 but that's going to be an iconic photo. Just an Obie's hand up there, like, that was not lucky either. That was very... No, no. That's your high school basketball coach is showing you that one, you know? Yeah. Nobody getting the body on the inbounder. perfect. But yeah, it was a beautiful shot and you can see Brunson in the back.
Starting point is 00:54:02 But think of all the people around in the arena that might have pictures of that too. And then I wanted to ask, because you mentioned a couple times already, your favorite celebrity or what stood out to you? Who was there? Anything? I love seeing Larry David there. It's cool seeing Larry David and Seinfeld together. I care less about Seinfeld.
Starting point is 00:54:22 but there's just so much good social media content out of that my wife loves Timothy Shalameh loves seeing him there dude I saw the funniest Instagram post some lady or guy but their mom thinks that Timothy Shalemay's name is Landry Shammett because like the names are close enough like his Instagram account says like T. Shalameh
Starting point is 00:54:52 looks like sham it. And so she's just texting him, like, she thinks he plays for the team. Fat Joe. No longer fat. Yeah, it looks good. Is he Ozempic Joe? Big time. I've listened to a couple of his podcast episodes, and he's Ozmpic Joe. All right.
Starting point is 00:55:11 So then I don't know if this is Photoshop, because I didn't see it on the TV, but was Herbie's dog there? Yes. I saw Herbie. Somebody, uh, yeah, somebody sent me a. Somebody sent me a picture this morning saying that, yeah, there it is. It's definitely not real. Oh, that's not real? Okay.
Starting point is 00:55:32 Because it was like, he has his dog right in front of him by Brunson? No, they didn't let a dog on the court. Okay, all right. I put it on the list of the ball sacking. Kirkhurtree did have like an insane angle of the way, though. That's a great bit. Next to Jalen Brunson. That's.
Starting point is 00:55:50 I mean, if you're keeping your leash on him, he's. I could see it. Could have been. Yeah. It's not my fault. Let's do some viewer mail. It's Thursday. Have you found that you get like, people are timing it up?
Starting point is 00:56:10 Yeah. Because I save emails throughout the week and then Thursday morning. Wait, what happened? I don't have 50 emails now. I think we're going to start with one that could be our sponsor. Is that right? Do you want that one? Or me?
Starting point is 00:56:27 Let's see. It's from Patrick at Puddle Pools. It was about the Dumb Zone summer event. Hey guys, thanks for letting us be a part of your event. Here's some yeas. Shout out to our partners, especially community mechanical, who was fixing our AC this week.
Starting point is 00:56:44 And, of course, tried it did garage door repairs who came out and fixed a broken string this morning. Now some booze. I would personally like to recognize Jake for shitting all over our carnival game. Well, he may think it required no skill or thought that numerous amounts of children that came over and played the game
Starting point is 00:57:02 not only had a great time, but also walked away with either a free t-shirt or a squeezable version of our beloved puddlepool's mascot, flip-flop. They have a mascot? Name flip-flop. The emotional distress he has caused the team has truly humbled us. We will try to rehab our approach next year. Oh, another guy just sliding in a shot at you.
Starting point is 00:57:24 A little jab. That's all people do. Patrick, owner of puddle pools. Well, Patrick, I'll have you know my pool looks great. Puddlepools.com slash dumb zone. Sign up. Month-a-month, or if you go for a year, you get a month free. It's great.
Starting point is 00:57:42 They clean your pool. They check the equipment. They do the chemical balance. They send you pictures afterward. We had a thing popped up over the weekend. Like our pressure was effed up. So I texted my guy Thomas, he came out there on Monday. Fixed it up.
Starting point is 00:57:57 Just saying, that's included in the whole thing. They're great. Puddlepools.com slash dumbson. I got a childhood thing. Okay, I got one too. Nick brought this up. What is this? Things that you thought would be a bigger player in your life, the Quicksand list.
Starting point is 00:58:15 This one. Amnesia. It was the one I had with my, I was talking about with my kid. Nick brings a good one up. tetanus. Yeah. You step on a nail, bro? He says, I work in a major auto manufacturer of my choosing and have cut myself on lots of
Starting point is 00:58:32 metal over the year. My wife always says I need to get a tetanus shot. I've never been, and life's been pretty chill. Interesting. Because I was under the impression. Your arm just rot and fall off. Something. And then they kind of scare you with, like, the tetanus shot kind of hurts too.
Starting point is 00:58:47 Yeah, it's actually just getting a six-inch needle. It's not that big. But I guess if you think about it, when is the last story you read that, oh, my gosh, you hear about him? You didn't get his tetanus shot. Yeah. You'll hear about shingles. Somebody got shingles. Sure.
Starting point is 00:59:02 You'll hear about, you know, all kinds of stuff. Yeah. So, tetanus. Have we ever heard of what happens? Let's add rabies. Oh, we. Have you ever heard of someone that didn't go get the rabies shot? And then they were like, oh.
Starting point is 00:59:21 God, I turned it. into a frothing. Wait, human beings get a rabies shot? Don't, like if you get bitten, you have to go get a shot. Oh, yeah, no.
Starting point is 00:59:29 In fact, that's another 18-inch needle that they shove in. Yeah, that one's bad. They shove through your stomach down into your bone. Right, yeah. Like five of them.
Starting point is 00:59:40 My playground thing is from Max. He said for as many times as they were taught to stop, drop, and roll, he thought we'd be catching on fire like once a month. It's true. It's one of the few things.
Starting point is 00:59:52 things you knew in life is how to not be on fire. You're like, this will probably be every day. Oh, did you say your buddy, Andrew, you're a fireman too? Yes, sir. Okay. For closing remarks, can you find the picture I had, one of the things I bought at Costco? I want to, in fact, we could throw it to him here if we're doing kids things. Because my wife bought this thing at Costco and said,
Starting point is 01:00:22 said, ask any firemen. This is why, like, because I said, we're waste of money here. We're never going to use this. We do not need this. She said, ask any fireman. Okay. I see one here. And you claim that you are a fireman.
Starting point is 01:00:34 Beth has a good one. Here it is. So she made us buy this. This is our first ever purchase at Costco. It's called the Wrap It Off Fire Blanket. So apparently it's a big blanket that if indeed something catches on fire on the stove, I can get out the blanket and just throw it right on there. Or look at something's on.
Starting point is 01:00:52 fire outside. Oh, run in and get the blanket. What say you, person who is claimed to be a fireman? I'm asking any fireman here. I would probably do it to make your wife happy, but other than that, I wouldn't put a lot of stock into it. Okay. Happy wife, half Elylein. You don't show up in the cruiser with a bunch of fire blankets and just throw them on. Let's go on the Tesla. Hey, the, uh... Oh, the electric fire. Yeah, there you go. That's right. Oh, really? Okay. Is that prevalent? Yeah, they go on electric cars, so that's about it, though. This looks like a kitchen fire, I guess. I wouldn't do it there.
Starting point is 01:01:32 That's a two-pack, though. Maybe if you do both, it could work. It is a two-pack, but yeah, have you ever heard the firemen be like, oh, we can't get the fire hydrant, don't worry. I've got a couple blankets. What if we just got one of these, though, that was as big as that flag that they do the National Anthem at Jerry World? Right.
Starting point is 01:01:53 You stand on one side? That giant flag, but what if we drop this giant flag on a house? Drones. Yeah. Drones just dropped the giant fire blanket. We could save so much water money. Yeah. And in this, you know, this economy?
Starting point is 01:02:07 That water could go to a data center. Yeah. Like it needs to. Because I just had a question about Kumar Rocker's splits. Oh. And I needed a couple gallons for that. Well, big springs in a drought now. Beth, this is a good one for us to really make note of.
Starting point is 01:02:24 I think one of us said it on the show, or Blake specifically, the prediction that Shottie at some point will claim a Valentine's Day date with the Super Bowl. Because the Super Bowl this year, he probably won't even be the only one, but he'll be big on it. And she says she'd place an extra bet that he will include and laugh at a joke somehow involving his wife. Like I had to tell Jimmy, baby, sorry. Oh, that's good. Got to date this Valentine's.
Starting point is 01:02:53 Look out for that. It's coming. I like it. The other day, the former Rangers first round pick, Bubba Thompson came up. Cody says, update on the life of Bubba Thompson. It's not what you think. Okay. He's 28.
Starting point is 01:03:16 He's still an athlete. But he is now, after a red shirt season, a quarterback at West Florida. He has gone back to football at the age of 27. and he was a quarterback in high school and chose baseball. So we always see this happen the other way. But we've never seen it. But with NIL now. Yeah, he's got no real NFL prospects, but you can make good money doing this probably.
Starting point is 01:03:41 He might end up at an SEC school at the age of like. He's probably making more money than he's ever made. He was a, not yet. He's at West Florida. So I think he's trying to climb the transfer letter. And then end up, he can end up getting a million a year. I think he's got three or four years of eligibility left. He might be at like age 29.
Starting point is 01:03:57 or 30. He was a three-star recruit in Alabama and had a lot of offers. He played a... Nebraska? Where did he go? Let me see. Because he played with like Jalen Tolbert or something. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:14 He was teammates with Jalen Tolbert's quarterback in high school. What Brandon Whedon did. But he came back to football. Yeah. Oh, yeah. He was a Yankees pitcher. prospect. So we've seen it happen like this.
Starting point is 01:04:29 We haven't seen it happen in college. That's the distinction. Yeah. He went back and played at Oklahoma State at that time. Yeah. He was 30 in the draft. Chris Winky did it originally. Winky.
Starting point is 01:04:43 That's why he wasn't going to need a lot of time to get ready to be the starter for the Browns. Because he's so old and he's so experienced. Right. Do you want me to read the one about words Dan has ruined? I don't have it. Okay. Maybe D. Lance just sent it to me.
Starting point is 01:04:59 Hello, friends. I've been stuck on a word that Dan is completely ruined, and the epitome of this whole bit came up on last Tuesday's episode when Taryn was spilling your heart out about her cousin battling cancer, and she made the comment, ease the load. Load? And I couldn't do anything else than other than think about Dan cracking the smallest, cheekiest smile while whispering the phrase,
Starting point is 01:05:25 I'll give you a load. Yeah. That's a good one. I'm totally bringing this to light in a comedic vein, in no way claiming that Dan's antics are taking away from the serious things like Meg Matters, just thought it was an open shut case of words that Dan has ruined. Yeah. I concede the remainder of my time from Lance.
Starting point is 01:05:39 Oh, good. Thank you. Thank you. I have one of those, too. This is from Coleman. Carpet and drapes. Mm-hmm. They got a match.
Starting point is 01:05:47 Mm-hmm. Or has he enhanced these words for you? How about that? One from Sean, Things that should be back. should be back. These aren't things that are back. Mm-hmm. But Sean wants the Jake's
Starting point is 01:06:04 Bubba-Bah-Basskball song. Yeah, that's good. Don't know if that trips anything on our... It might. Our partners, which... The platform on which we do the program. Mm-hmm. Oh, Annie says things that should be back
Starting point is 01:06:24 commenting about Mike Brown's dumbface, which he's right. It's been years since we've pointed that out that Mike Brown is a card carrying member. That's a list we haven't really done here as much. Now that we're here on this platform, everything's Jake. Oh, Jake came up with Roseanne. Jake came up with the Miss Piggy.
Starting point is 01:06:50 Did you come up with the Miss Piggy? I don't know. Speaking of the swine line, Eric writes in, a political pundit Anna Navarro Yeah Anna Navarro Also
Starting point is 01:07:04 Don't know who she is Don't be your charger Blake So we don't have to stop Sorry I should have done it earlier Clayton's is better She has a very funny When Trump uses the P word Which one?
Starting point is 01:07:20 Cat one Okay She got real fired up about it It's very funny and she's a she's a oh okay yeah I got one we have Tara Lipinski
Starting point is 01:07:34 you're the best ooh yeah I like that who is that ice skater I haven't seen her lately let's see if Travis is right well she
Starting point is 01:07:48 I was never never really found her to be super attractive though she does have swine line qualities one that everyone finds attractive this was brought up this week is Tiffany Amber Thesson. Oh, yeah. Which is, uh, Byron brought that one up. Full, look at that.
Starting point is 01:08:05 I mean, that's, as he says, not me, he says, big hog energy for Kelly Kapowski. This is Travis who says, Dear Fuhrer, the people of Poonami, have two great additions to the swine line, Tara Lipinski and Danielle Fischel. Oh, yeah. Topanga, it says. Topanga. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:31 Both made my little boy pants crazy. No doubt. And still make my big boy pants crazy. More Jake Obama voice. Yeah. And more singing of horrible butt rock songs. Topanga. From Baltimore Me's World.
Starting point is 01:08:46 Got one about our trip that's coming up. We have a little... Andrew liked it. We have a little trip coming up to Broken Bow. Just kind of a little getaway. Just some boys' time. Our buddy, Jeremy. Jeremy owns Trident Access Services.
Starting point is 01:09:06 He owns also this Airbnb. And has been asking us for a couple years to go do a show there. So we're going to do two there. We'll be there Sunday night, I think. Can we officially say it? Yeah. We're going to do a live stream from the couch there Sunday evening during the U.S. on the White House lawn event.
Starting point is 01:09:35 That's all words made sense. Those words were supposed to be in that order. I'm excited for those words. We'll do that, and then we're just going to do our show Monday and Tuesday. No big deal. Just getting away. Just getting away. The World Cup is coming, so we're leaving.
Starting point is 01:09:52 So I have Deer Surveyor of the Slit. With your upcoming trip to Broken Bow to duck the influx of lesser people, soccer fans in parentheses coming to town. I was wondering if my fellow Oklahoma State alumni, alumnus has warned you about the Bigfoot population before your mandated walk in the woods. We were told in Stillwater that if you ever went further east than 15 miles away from I-35,
Starting point is 01:10:19 you'd immediately be sucked off by a tornado and carried to a meth house by the hairy man himself. Stay safe, stay strapped. My leaders are Baby Blake, and West Texas Clayton. Punt on third down after inside zone doesn't work twice and stay hard. Also, stick with the Oklahoma theme. Swine Line recommendation is from Ethan.
Starting point is 01:10:45 He says Miranda Lambert. I'll leave that to these boys. Yeah, I think that's a good one. What's her bit? What does she do? Country music. She got real sad after Blake Shelton left her, I think. Well, the basis of all the...
Starting point is 01:11:00 Oh, by the way, Topanga, do you guys remember... Oh, yeah. Do you guys remember when that guy tried to, like, sue Cinnamon Toast Crunch because he found some shrimp in his cereal? Oh, hot carl. Right? It is Hot Carl. Your book.
Starting point is 01:11:15 Yeah, give me my book back. Topanga's married to the guy who wrote... Yeah. Shanson... Something. Something. I've got two movie tropes. Okay.
Starting point is 01:11:27 Oh, I got a bunch of those. Yeah, let's go. The first, dear Mr. Pister-Fister, when business guys or lawyers or other suit wears wear their entire suit jacket included while sitting at their desk working. As someone who's had to wear a suit for 15 years, no one does this.
Starting point is 01:11:48 Yeah, that's true. You never see a guy just in a white shirt. They're always, yeah, full suit. That's weird, because I've been thinking about something. Dan told us about something recently of like how they show. got something on a street. They had to do the concrete, whatever.
Starting point is 01:12:03 Like just those little cues or whatever. They must have just... Spraying it with waria. Yeah, over time, figured out, like, oh, business, he has to have the jacket on. Or people are like, is he in charge? Right. That from Jason and Hermosa Beach.
Starting point is 01:12:17 And then my other one, this is from Andrew. People breaking a lock off of something with the end of a bat or an axe. That doesn't just work? He says no one is breaking a lock with anything. How about picking a lock? A lock. Picking a lock's not as hard.
Starting point is 01:12:33 Oh. I'd like to see it done. I can break a padlock with the axe. Easy. Okay. Sunday night. So how's it? I feel like there's going to be axes there. Definitely pick a lock.
Starting point is 01:12:42 I want to see Clayton pick a lock Sunday night and I want to. Well, I got to get the kit. Ah, here we go. Oh, now I need a kit. I thought we were leaving for the World Cup. Clark says movie trope. After morning sex, the woman gets up and removes the top sheet from the bed to cover herself as she walks around.
Starting point is 01:13:01 That's a good one. Ridiculous and never once happens in real life, nor would anyone want that, male or female. Like put my shit back on the bed. What are you doing? It took me forever and put that on there.
Starting point is 01:13:12 Not very considerate. I have one movie trope. Yeah. It's good there's a fireman here and we talked about this a second ago. In movies when people on fire, they never stop, drop, and roll.
Starting point is 01:13:25 They do. I was watching John Wayne's Hellfighters last night. And yeah, there's a lot of fire. Everyone just running around flailing arms. What are we teaching our kids? We're teaching them stop, drop, and roll. They're just not listening.
Starting point is 01:13:42 My personal movie trope that I wrote down this week was, I was watching something. And someone is very frustrated. They're working on a stack of papers, like a big stack. Like you would never see anybody carrying this many papers, but a big stack. and they were very frustrated, and they threw them across the room. And now everything's all over to, like, you would never do that. You idiot. You got to clean all that stuff up.
Starting point is 01:14:07 Same thing would be the desk, right? You're just so pissed. Like, ah, damn it! And you just rip everything off your desk and throw it on the ground. You know how long it's going to now take you to clean that up and organize it back to where it was? Yeah. Let's see. I'll give you my other ones that I got this week.
Starting point is 01:14:30 Shipwreck, boat sinks out. at sea. Somehow, they wake up, washed up on shore, coughing up water. Yeah. Most people drown, sink, get eaten by a shark, et cetera, but no. Highly unreasonable expectations. They just are face down on the beach so the story can go on. That's from Colin and Frisco. Here's one from, is it you got movie trop still?
Starting point is 01:14:50 Keep going, yeah, I'm just doing that. I'm at them. All right, I got two more quick ones. The fragility of glass. Batman barrels through the skyscraper window. It just shatters. fighting the bad guys, he pushes them through glass walls at the office. None of those things would work.
Starting point is 01:15:09 That's pretty good, because I've always thought for a long time I could punch a window, like a car window, and there's no way. No, no. T.C. recently had a story where some guy, like, he got a road rage incident, and the guy got out of the car, came up to his car, and punched the window. But yeah, you're right. It's like, bing. What happened? And then the guy got back in his car and left.
Starting point is 01:15:33 T.C. T.C.'s got an aggressive disposition. He's an aggressive driver? Well, no. I think he's more of some guy. I'll try to tell this quickly. He was going to pull out of a parking spot that basically put you out onto the street. And as he starts to eke out, some guy's coming up.
Starting point is 01:15:50 And the guy, you know, they don't hit. But he's like, oh, okay, didn't see you back up. And that guy turns around and gives him a fuck. Yeah. And T.C. gives him a. The finger, I think. Might have given him a finger.
Starting point is 01:16:03 I think he might have started, yeah. It ended up with T.C. giving the guy the finger. Yeah. And the guy, but there's a red light there. So that guy's parked. So he just hopped out. Walked over the car and was like, you know. And one more movie trope, actor from Matt, actors in movies with a drug problem,
Starting point is 01:16:19 always slam a handful of pills, no water. Yeah. Yeah. That's pretty common. We were talking recently about, um, body parts. I don't know why. Somebody lost their thumb.
Starting point is 01:16:36 What were we talking about? Jacob says, by hospital policy, anything surgically removed the Soroy Pindi, must be sent to the lab for analysis. However, some things have exemptions.
Starting point is 01:16:50 In our hospital system, we have to send everything to the lab except for skins, and if the patient wants to take her placenta home, we can release it to her. Everything else is analyzed in the lab. which involves thinly slicing the tissue, like what happened to the tip of Mike's thumb. I'm not aware of any laws regarding returning surgically removed organs to patients,
Starting point is 01:17:09 but the majority of hospital systems do not allow it by their own policies. Julie's uterus, right? Didn't we? Right. We wanted to put that in the new studio? Yeah, we were going to put it up with, like, lights on it, like a boxing glove. Tasteful. See if we could re-animate it, right?
Starting point is 01:17:30 Like we could actually get it to become its own thing. Our friend Edwin went to India and he had two observations. The first one, he met a lady named Anupima. A Nupima. That's a name that that show has ruined for me. Right. You can't use that everywhere you turn. You're like, I'm just thinking of Jeopardy every time I meet a Nupamas.
Starting point is 01:17:56 Then he also said, because recently we were talking about, about the white Indian guy. The guy from Norway who kind of looks, I don't know, maybe like Clayton, but he lives on the streets of Mumbai. Just a guy with a beard. He's just a big white guy, but these sounds like these. That was awesome. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:20 And Edward said I was at the airport in Mumbai, and I saw an albino Indian. He said, take what you think an albino looks like and multiply that exponentially. He was the widest person I've ever seen in my life, and I've been to a farmer's market in Vermont on a brisk fall Saturday morning. His hair was a crazy blonde color. It looked dyed, but it wasn't.
Starting point is 01:18:46 When y'all were talking about the white Indian guy on the talk, it reminded me to tell you all about this guy. Did you have an albino kid at your school ever? Dude, we did, and I felt so bad for him. I felt bad for him, too, but I thought, I secretly was like, that's so cool. Do you guys have a name? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:06 Now, this was sixth grade public school, my one year. Oh, he's going to blame the public school. It must have been as Andrew wasn't around to shepherd him. What did they call him? Yes. I called him friend and by his name. They called him Milky. Milky.
Starting point is 01:19:24 Kind of give up, but. We used to play pickup with an albino black. guy in college. One of my favorite rappers is albino. Action Brons, no. Brother Ali. Brother Ali, that's right. How come everybody knows albinos but me?
Starting point is 01:19:43 Yet, I'm the one that could be confused for one. Here's Anna Navarro. Let's see what this sounds like. And I think that every single Republican is going to have to answer the question. What did you do the day you saw the tape of this man boasting about? about grabbing a woman's pussy.
Starting point is 01:20:05 Oh, my God. That was on CNN. I've got three anchored words. Rightfully. So? Suffrage. Women's. Movement.
Starting point is 01:20:21 Women's suffrage. That's good. Kin. Wait, what? Kin. Kin. K. Next of.
Starting point is 01:20:29 K. K. K-I-N, I thought. Yeah. Yeah. Next, that's good. I have three gummy thoughts. These are my last emails.
Starting point is 01:20:41 And gummy thoughts today will be brought to us by earlybirdcbd.com. Early bird. What's the code these days? We are using DZ20 for 20% off at early bird CBD.com. They of course have the gummies with two and a half milligrams of real THC in them, but they also have drops. They're water soluble. There's no calories.
Starting point is 01:21:03 There's no sugar. They're flavorless, but you can just get them a little sparkling water, maybe a little lime. Good to go. A little twist. A little twist, a little mild buzz for about a buck. Not some $20 cocktail. You could do that at early bird CBD.com. Place an order and be the hit at your summer party.
Starting point is 01:21:22 I've always wanted to say that. Summer party? Just be, hey, and be the hit at your next party. I want to be a hit. Why? Okay, Marv. These are three gummy thoughts. If you guys have any, feel free.
Starting point is 01:21:40 We have Marv says, Why is there no punctuation that expresses sorrow or deflated emotion? The exclamation point is used to express with a heightened emotion. The period is for neutral. The question mark is you're inquisitive. Nothing used to designate the lower emotional spectrum in writing. That's so dumb. I love it. That's a great one.
Starting point is 01:22:05 What could we put down there? It has to be something drooping in some way. Maybe it's hanging below the line. I like take a comma and flip it upside down on the end. Is it French that has a lot of like bottom rookie? What about the leaning kind of a wilted exclamation point? An italicized one? Like it's just wilted down.
Starting point is 01:22:29 It's not full. It's flaccustomed. It kind of just feels like a Mexican exclamation point. It's like leaning. It's like, hey, yeah. Like, fiesta. Tracy says, why don't they make car windows out of the same stuff that they make the transition eyeglasses out of? The glasses that turn into sunglasses when you're outside.
Starting point is 01:22:50 I stared at this email for a long time. Tracy Belcher. God, this guy should be a billionaire. Great question. It's a lady. No, no chance. Definitely is. And, hey, Daniel.
Starting point is 01:23:04 Yeah, this one could be controversial. but it's a gummy thought from Ryan Daniel I was watching Band of Brothers with my wife Are we familiar with Band of Brothers? It's wonderful Watching Band of Brothers with my wife I had a gummy thought
Starting point is 01:23:20 And I thought I'd share it with her Thinking there would be no judgment Bad idea Uh oh So I looked at her and I said When Auschwitz was up and cooking Oh don't And you've lost it
Starting point is 01:23:33 Do you think any of those ladies ever flick the bean while in captivity. That is an interesting question about the human condition and experience. I think that is fascinating. That wasn't her answer. Fascinating. Well, let me tell you what. You should have replaced the verb cooking, first of all, and said operating.
Starting point is 01:23:56 You were behind the curve when you used an oven-based. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He didn't mean it, perhaps. the look of disgust on her face. He says, anyway, I'm probably going to hell. Have a happy football. Keep cranking hog.
Starting point is 01:24:12 Freedom hog. Not Holocaust hog. That's from Ryan. Yeah, that's a good... Thanks, Ryan. Why rob them of that, right? They should have every opportunity in the world to be as happy as possible, given the circumstances.
Starting point is 01:24:28 Yeah. You have to think... There were a couple hollow hollah. Are we good? I'm good. All right. You know Hock Tua girl? No, I don't even know what those words are.
Starting point is 01:24:42 God damn, what are you doing? Are you living under a rock? She's not online at all. Reading books and stuff. Level of this hostility does not match my not knowing hop to it girl. Boy, that's the... Oh, Hock, Tua. Yeah, I saw this on your Instagram.
Starting point is 01:24:57 I didn't know what the hell it meant. That's the kids'-bop version, Hot-Tuit girl. You're listening to The Dumb Zone. Can I promote something? Sure. It's your show. We had an email and viewer mail from Edwin. Remember when he went to India?

Starting point is 01:28:11 Is this where Parcell? came from? Romo was a miracle. He was a miracle, one of it. He's just at a bar and some fans are recording him, and you'll be able to hear the piano bar, Hotel California rendition playing in the background, which is too freaking good.
Starting point is 01:28:27 There you go. Romo was a miracle. He was a miracle. He almost never got in and he almost got in, and he almost got. What if you were the Jaguar? Sir, sir. Did you just just drafted himself
Starting point is 01:28:41 by the matter? for the only reason I brought in Bill post down. Tell them to him they fucking race. That's what it is not right. I love him. Yeah, I know you. That was shit, but I wanted a business. They were on my ass so mad about it.
Starting point is 01:28:59 Jay's got to have a yes man. So to get this fucking statement, he'd bring his ass. You wouldn't take Cibo in the third round. That guy is the worst reporter of all time. It's not a reporter. It's a fan. I know. But that's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:29:14 He just said the craziest shit you could imagine. And he went back to Tebow. What about Tebow in the third round? Because that's what he had started with Tebow. It was in the news, right? Oh. He was around that time. This is like 2011.
Starting point is 01:29:26 But he just said, everybody says Jerry wants a yes man. They got to get his ass in here to get this fucking stadium. And he followed up on Tebow instead? He's like, yeah, you wouldn't. Jay's got to have a yes man. So to get this fucking stadium. He can bring him his hand. Boy, you wouldn't take Tebow in the third round.
Starting point is 01:29:47 Why? You never get on the field. I can't get him out there. I can't get him out there. Hey, that's a two-time GM of the year right there that correctly identified the talent of Tebow not being one of a real NFL quarterback. I'm going to take that as the positive view of it.
Starting point is 01:30:06 I'm going to say the negative view. He didn't necessarily say, I don't want him. He acknowledged I wouldn't be able to get this guy on the field. Everyone else would know he sucked. Because I got Romo? Because he's saying, well, just like I've got tickets to sell. I would do it is what he's saying, but I can't get him on the field. You know?
Starting point is 01:30:23 But just the part where he's like, and Bill ain't worth that shit. I love it, but he ain't worth a shit. I love hearing him curse. I love the audio and I'm sad for it too. Like, it's the old, these guys, those guys that were drinking at the bar, what a nice cool thing that happened to them. They got drunk Jerry Jones talking, but then they publicized the audio. Yeah, well, that's not near as bad.
Starting point is 01:30:51 I mean, he's had way worse ones get published before. Sure, sure, sure. Remember the one where that guy was getting married? Here, I'll play it. No. Some guy was getting married, and they're at the bar, and, like, the grooms party walks over to Jerry, and they're like, hey, a buddy's getting married.
Starting point is 01:31:11 And Jennifer, congratulations on the wedding. Wedding. Now, you know he's with a black girl tonight, don't you? Jerry's standing there hammered. The camera immediately pans to a black guy that's standing with Jerry laughing. Like, nobody's mad about it. But Jerry, they're like, say something to the bride. Dude, and he is hammered looking.
Starting point is 01:31:43 Yeah, you know. You know. You know. Black girl and I, don't you think? Yeah, you know he's with a black girl and I, don't you? He looks my help. Right here, Jerry. Thank you, buddy.
Starting point is 01:32:01 Thank you, buddy. Man, Patrick DeMont would never do that. Ah. Close. All right, sorry. That's awesome. No. I just want to follow up on a quick today in Twitter.
Starting point is 01:32:12 Then we'll do the news. That is the... Remember, I was thinking I got ball sacked again the other day because they showed, I think this is picture one for Space Force. Remember, I saw this and it said, this is real, not Photoshopped, and you guys all laughed at me. Rightfully so, based on some of my history, that this lady is getting sworn into the U.S. Space Force. And maybe you were thinking it was fake because she's a major job. general and it's a lady. And I know you guys don't think women can accomplish anything in life.
Starting point is 01:32:50 I do as a father of two daughters. But in the background of this picture, so she's getting sworn in, holding her right hand up, swearing to God that she will abide by all the Space Force regs. And behind her is like a stormtrooper and other space things from movies, I guess. Darth Vaders there. I don't see Darth Vader. He's Darth Vader. right. He's on the right. He's got that. Well, there's a red guy there and there's another white guy.
Starting point is 01:33:21 I know this stuff. These are the bad guys. All right. Oh. Oh, it's all the bad guys. That's why if you're about to tell me this is real, I was doing the math in my head. It's absolutely real. Show picture too, because then I went and looked. Well, let me look up this lady. Yes. Yeah, that's BobaFet, right? Yeah. She was being sworn in, but this is now the way Twitter works or media sometimes. right? This was 2021. Or maybe it was 2020. The point is it wasn't like last week. But I saw this picture last week and that made today in Twitter last week. Okay.
Starting point is 01:33:58 You guys said it was all fake. Search her name. Search sworn in. You're definitely right. And you will find a picture of a lot of space characters from movies with her. And I didn't even think about it, but you guys are now pointing out it's all the bad guys. Yeah, the empire was the bad bad guys. You don't want to necessarily say, this is us, the empire. But that's what we are, right?
Starting point is 01:34:25 Yeah, but I, even I, have to point out that America's been a pretty chill empire. Overall? Yeah, think about it. Historically. We played a tough schedule. We've been pretty chill. Not near as many rapes as the history books. It's true.
Starting point is 01:34:44 What are you all looking at me like that for? I'm just waiting for a punchline. There isn't one. This is just a patriotism. I'm just saying it's not as bad as people make it out to be. Give us a couple thousand years. Yeah. I would like to promote before we do the news, Poncho.
Starting point is 01:34:59 Hey now. That is those shirts that have the SPF in them. Oh, I have an idea. Let's go. This isn't for poncho necessarily. But it is, maybe Poncho could use it. but it's a sunscreen
Starting point is 01:35:18 slash insect repellent slash TRT replacement because you can do the cream okay you don't have to get a shot you can do the cream
Starting point is 01:35:32 in the inside of your elbow or can you use it as lube slash see why not that's why we brainstorm let me tell you're going to need that lube because you're going to be fending off
Starting point is 01:35:45 tons of pussy in your poncho outdoor shirt. Is that in the copy? Oh yeah, I didn't see. That is in the new copypoints. com slash dumbzone. And it's important, poncho outdoors.com slash dumbzone two O's there.

Starting point is 01:36:12 They don't shrink. You don't have to iron them. They're breey. the bull. Blake wears them with Steve Burline. Yeah. You can sweat in them if you're a sweaty pig like me. Good stuff.
Starting point is 01:36:26 Ponchooutdoors.com slash dumb zone. Get 10 bucks off. Here's Jay with the dumb zone news. All right. Let's navigate back over here. Don't have the full details on this damn, but it looks like Phil Mickelson is in some trouble. Oh, no.
Starting point is 01:36:47 Money? Tax? No. although this could result in that. You may recall he stepped away from professional golf earlier this year, said that he needed some private family time due to a health issue. Golf Digest reports today that a female club employee at the Farms Golf Club, the prestigious golf club near his Rancho Santa Fe home. This is like his home club. Yeah, he's been kicked.
Starting point is 01:37:18 out. Dang. Yeah. Allegedly approached a female employee initiated non-consensual physical contact with her. Employee reported the actions. His attorneys say that video will absolve him. Hmm. But, yeah, they kicked him out of his club. And he's out. Which doesn't happen. She didn't want to party with Phil? I bet you, though, that since he's Phil and he pisses people in golf off, there are people at that club he's pissed off that are like PGA guys.
Starting point is 01:37:57 Like they're just waiting for this moment? They're friends with Jay Berwanger, who I think is a name. No, I think that you got a couple guys mixed up. Is Jay Berwanger the first Heisman Trophy winner? Yeah, it looks like it. What's that guy's name? Is it Jay something? J. Monaghan.
Starting point is 01:38:19 That sounds right. The leader of golf? No one looks anything up anymore. We just sit here with say it. We don't have time. We're going to eat a sandwich. Let's see here. What would we like to do?
Starting point is 01:38:38 I got to tell you, Jay Berwanger is not making Flower Mounds eighth grade team. There's no chance. Just by looking at him. The Heisman winner in 1930 or whatever? Dude, you could go to like the 50s. I'm taking the elite eighth graders of DFW. What are his stats? What are his dimensions, you think?
Starting point is 01:38:59 I mean, he, like, what, $5.6, a buck 40? No, you're six. This guy's not 6'1. They measured you by horse hands. Yeah, right. A lot of sentencing news today. We've got a 28-year-old man who's going away for 45 years. He was arrested by Wataga Police in October 20.
Starting point is 01:39:22 25 after a standoff. He was arrested for theft. Coffee makers, vacuum cleaners, PlayStation controllers, but mostly Legos. Oh, this guy.
Starting point is 01:39:39 You got 25 years? Forty-five. For stealing tens and tens of thousands of dollars, a major theft ring of Legos. Oh, no, man. Should you ever go to prison for 45? years for theft no it's hard to unless it's like stealing you know virginity souls probably virginities
Starting point is 01:40:02 now that's another crime though too i don't know that souls is a crime i don't know that you can prove that i just mean like people's uh life savings type thing scamming olds out of all their all their money maybe yeah that seems worse maybe all the four skins that they were saving Didn't you say they save those in the hospital? Yeah, $30,000 in merchandise. That's not... Doesn't feel like 45 years. Because Carmelo Anthony, for his lack of effort on defense and poor shot selection,
Starting point is 01:40:38 yesterday was sentenced to 35 years. He is eligible for parole in 17. This is the kid who did the stabbing, the local track meet. And I pulled the picture of his mugshot because... He's gotten older. Well, no, he's certainly gotten older. They give you a haircut. But I'm interested in what we're putting prisoners in now.
Starting point is 01:41:01 For a while, we went through the, we're going to put a towel around their neck. Like a DUI arrest or something. They would block out any signifiers on your shirt, you know? But I'm just going to say it. They have Carmelo Anthony dressed like a slave. Whoa. It's like a burlap. Sacky thing that looks like prison in Louisiana in 1925 or something.
Starting point is 01:41:33 I'll say it. It's giving property. Like, what, that, am I crazy? Yeah, yeah, you're right. It's like a Belichick cut or something. It's a weird. Yeah. Like an old nightgown or something.
Starting point is 01:41:51 Weird. It's weird. So he's eligible for parole half. way through. So he'll be like, what, not even 40? Yeah. It's a horrible, I mean, horrible, what do you say? Horrible, horrible story. Yeah, I don't like to see online talk about that one. Speaking of online talk, a big online influencer guy got arrested for the second time out because of this. Jake Lang, he's like a white nationalist guy. He was at the Frisco City Council maybe last week and then outside the
Starting point is 01:42:23 courthouse What was he doing? Trolling people yelling at people, calling them ins but then you know find the line, the cops will I think they just get you for trespassing
Starting point is 01:42:40 and then let you go. Just to get you out of there? And a guy who was in there and is now out of there is back in there. A former Texas inmate re-arrested but this just makes sense to me right like any job you go into or setting you go into you're absorbing information you're learning try to pick that up and take that with you into your next step in phase in life and this guy was sending fake weed back into jail he clearly had figured out there's a market
Starting point is 01:43:17 for this and figured out how this works and thought i bet you this is so common to when you're inside and you're just like, you know, I'm not going to be here that long. Like, I'm going to study how they do this. I'm going to figure out how they get it in. And I remember my roommate at the hab, Eddie, he got in trouble for this because his sister would bring it in. And he was, like, selling it while cutting hair. And that was kind of his whole story, at least as he told me,
Starting point is 01:43:47 was like, I went to prison and then got like six more felonies. and while in prison in five years at the age of you know 22 or something but shout out
Starting point is 01:43:58 to this guy have you seen the latest prison thing like they can put drugs on paper now and smoke it
Starting point is 01:44:04 and so now a little liquid like acid like acids on paper but yeah but now they're saying like they have to investigate every note
Starting point is 01:44:13 every book like every piece of paper that comes into the prison now has to be tested genius are you uh Andrew
Starting point is 01:44:23 firefighter EMT, are you a proponent of the flared base if things are going to go in somebody's bottom? Have you ever seen bottom action? I think I know what you're talking about, but I don't want to assume, so a little more. Have you ever had anybody have something stuck inside them? That's where I thought you were going. Yeah. Yes. Yes, unfortunately. It's... What was it? It's like a cucumber, I think. I know it was like some... something you should be eating, but, you know, pretty standard. How do you get that out? You just take them to the hospital, man.
Starting point is 01:45:04 Oh, okay. You don't permit the curb and say, I'm a firefighter, bro. Yeah, exactly. It's a YP. Yeah. If anyone's wife is a nurse, they probably can have more answer. Yeah. If we could only find someone.
Starting point is 01:45:15 Yeah. A previous suspect and subject, I suppose, of trackdown here on Fox 4, was arrested in North Carolina. That's right. Rabid Rab got on him. And I actually went and found the trackdown segment from back in October when this murder happened. I'll play that for you in a second. But this is a lady who was arrested in North Carolina, 31-year-old lady.
Starting point is 01:45:47 This all stems from a shooting back actually in March. Okay? Guy was killed at his house when a delivery driver that he didn't call. call showed up. Okay. So now I'm going to take you to the track down. A doorbell camera on the victim's house did not record the critical moment when he was shot. Fox Wars, Sean Rabb, has this week's track down.
Starting point is 01:46:12 The 1800 block of Sedona Lane, Detective Michael Bowie, Detective, what happened here earlier this month? You had a guy shot at his front door? Yes, sir. On March the first, 2026, at about 4 p.m., the victim, who opened the door for, food order, but he didn't order that. An unknown suspect set the online order
Starting point is 01:46:36 with the victim name and the address. We believe this is a planned attack. Once the drivers arrive here, he knocked on the door, and on the video, what we can see that the suspect hide by the garage and whence the my victim opened the door,
Starting point is 01:46:56 the suspect approached him and fired multiple times. at my victim, the suspect turned around about to leave, but he returned and fired some more shot at the victim. So shot this guy like nine times in the stomach. And the pizza guy ducks, dives into the bushes. But it's important to note that detective several times said, he. This was no he. This is a woman.
Starting point is 01:47:23 And on video, she can do anything. She's moving like John Wick on the video, too, dude. Yeah? She's hiding behind the corner of the garage. garage, and as soon as the delivery driver doesn't see her, he walks up, she slides over, and then she just pops out. It's pretty crazy. Is this a love triangle type? They say they knew each other.
Starting point is 01:47:44 They say that they were known to each other. But yeah, that's, I don't know. It feels like that's one that's kind of surprised you don't hear that being used more often. Like, I don't really open the... Well, it's a monetary thing, too. You're going to lose 20. or whatever. Yeah, but maybe you're...
Starting point is 01:48:07 I feel like once you're down the road of murder, you're pretty committed to the... Your user score goes down. Do you think you use your points? No, I'm just saying that's why you don't hear about it as often, because... Yeah. Like, what if this doesn't work, and now I'm out 20 bucks,
Starting point is 01:48:21 and my enemy is eating a pizza. That's before tip, dude. Right. I have a confession. Do you tip, do you think? Peak hours? If you're doing the... Guy had to go through a lot.
Starting point is 01:48:32 If you're doing the DoorDash... Okay. Go ahead, confess. No, that gave me a second to think about it. That was very true. Oh, man. It's confession Thursday. It's not so much a confession.
Starting point is 01:48:44 It's just that all I'm eating these days is delivery pizza. Like every, I don't eat with my, I don't eat on a schedule with my family anymore. And every pizza place has a buy one and get one. And I'm just ordering two pizzas a day and eating. Look at this. I saw your lunch that you brought is just pizza. Yeah, and like Blake, I don't eat. I just eat all.
Starting point is 01:49:04 that with broccoli for like, it's just all, 6 a.m. midnight. Just. You're eating this pizza every meal. Every meal. So you're like the Matt Grimm of. It's just like, it's just there. I got us a pizza place for next week. Okay. He's scouted out Broken Bow. Oh, yeah. He's telling me about all the places I might be able to eat. Yeah, I have. Which aren't as many as him. Yeah. Just all kinds of things. There's a bowling alley there apparently. Go cards. There was a local DJ. of some note. His name is DJ ASAP. I guess like club DJ.
Starting point is 01:49:40 And he had a wife named Lashonda Moore, has a wife. No wife, fake wife. She's like an Instagram influencer. They were running, or they were accused of running, the pyramid scheme, B-I-N-T, blessings in no time. You may recall that we covered this story once upon a time. And actually, Sean Carnan late pitch to see if he could change the name of his business in the copy to blessings in no time. But it was like during the pandemic, they launched this scheme to try to help people who were struggling with money. And it was just a straight up pyramid scheme. You know, people are getting COVID checks. Is a pyramid scheme the same as the Ponzi scheme? I think so. You're just passing it.
Starting point is 01:50:36 So, yeah, the whole thing was a scam. They got found guilty five or six months ago. They were sentenced yesterday to 40 years each. Dude. For defraught. But this is more in line with Dan's thing, though. This is defrauding 10,000 people nationwide. And it was during the time when the country was, like, dying.
Starting point is 01:51:02 And people were getting money. You are actively hurting people. Yeah, and yeah, they're idiots for giving it to you. I don't care. That's not... Lego, though. You're actively hurting who? The Lego Corporation or the...
Starting point is 01:51:13 Well, investors. The stockholders of... I thought he was hitting targets. He was. The point is... Yeah. And I think they were Robin Target trucks, too. But yeah, as far as who's holding the bag,
Starting point is 01:51:27 this is people holding the bag. So I guess you could make that Robin Hood-esque distinction. But... See, this is another thing. You just... I didn't kill anybody. No, we didn't kill anybody. That's why I didn't get on a jury.
Starting point is 01:51:45 Because it was a theft case. They didn't tell us what the theft was. But they said, would you have a problem? Because the potential outcome of this could be they'd get 99 years in prison. And would you have a problem with that? And I said, yeah. Yeah, I said, yeah, because that's clearly monkey brain shit that you just pick the number 99 because it's still two digits as opposed to. to 100.
Starting point is 01:52:09 No, I know that's not what your objection was, but... But, yeah, maybe that's included, but it's like, for any theft, I get out of here, Mr. And they wouldn't give us any information. Like, I was like, well, I mean, was it, is it theft of, you know, old people and there's life savings? And they're like, we can't tell you. We just want to know if... And then there was one guy who said he would absolutely give that, even if it was theft
Starting point is 01:52:32 of, like, a pack of chewing gum. Principal. Yeah, he just, like, man's property is a man's property. Both he and I were walking out together. Yeah. The two ends of the spectrum. When in reality, the sort of things they should put you in jail for, I don't know a whole lot about the whole data center thing
Starting point is 01:52:52 and what's going on with chips and Greg Oster Tags City. But, yeah, we'll take one minute here. The biggest crock of shit that we have going on in politics today to me is the level of tax abatements that we offer to come. companies to move here. They're going to move here. You know why? Because it's awesome here. And so all these companies that move here and get these, this is how they get shit built. They freeze the tax rates. And now there's like this situation in South Texas where Tesla is threatening to move. They're going to move to South Texas? Yeah. Like we're going to threaten if we
Starting point is 01:53:30 don't get this deal because what it does is it freezes the amount of revenue that can go to the schools. So this is how you end up. It just, it's never made any sense to. me and it does the people don't ask this question all right well they're coming in here great they're coming they have to bring some jobs but they don't have to pay taxes no okay well they're going to still use our same stuff same roads same school so like we're adding to that part of it but we're not adding the tax part of it so anyways f them we'll fit we'll finish with a fun one here solely because of where it happened There was a big crime crackdown in Dallas yesterday where they were trying to do some gang busts.
Starting point is 01:54:15 Shooting broke out yesterday afternoon. Six people in custody. And this is a particularly, apparently, a particularly hot part of Dallas for crime. Gooch Street. Gooch? Yeah. It ain't uptown. It ain't north.
Starting point is 01:54:38 It ain't south. It's the gooch. There were two shootings on Gooch Street in two days. Suspects opened fire while officers were already on scene investigating the other shooting. Gooch. Did you want an urban dictionary? There's a Gooch Tom C. Elementary School in Dallas. Gooch Street.
Starting point is 01:55:05 Let's see where it is. That word was way more popular in my... Pretty South, yeah. That word was way more popular in my lexicon before Taint was. Gooch. Yeah, that's our football coach has said Gooch. So you grew up with the Gooch? I grew up with the taint.

I have kind of a strange question. We've been watching this Terry Schiavo case and listening to it on the radio. And it's been for a few weeks now. And me and some coworkers actually took a bet on to see when she would pass away and I won a considerable amount of money and I'm wondering I feel a little guilty now about this money so I wonder what you know can I keep this money or what should I do with it
Starting point is 02:05:54 give it all back to everybody who bet you think so tell him it was sick what about if I give it to charity no I think it's a lesson each person who bet needs to learn yeah I think you do better giving The most charitable thing you could do is hand the money back to each and every person and tell them this was sick. We never should have done this. Because we now got money on the Pope. So, I mean... Okay, so this is really a fake call and you're a jerk. I'm Dr. Laura Schlesinger, my number 1-800, Dr. Laura, and I'll be right back.
Starting point is 02:06:29 Yeah. Yeah. Community Mechanical presents on this day in history. First, a quick word about our boys at Community Mechanical. They are the title sponsor of the DZGSC this year. They are the title sponsor of the Brandon Aubrey show. Brandon Aubrey, in fact, uses community mechanical. He got that preventative maintenance.
Starting point is 02:06:57 Actually had him come out the first time because another AC company said his unit was shot and he was going to be about $10,000, $12,000 for a new one. Might have figured, might have seen dollar signs in his eyes because he was talking to a Dallas Cowboy, you know. It happens like that. But Community Mechanical, they'll shoot you straight. They actually fix Brandon's unit for like $100. It's going strong.
Starting point is 02:07:26 And they are going to install the new unit at his new house that he's getting with his shiny new contract. CommunityDFW.com. Hit them up, have him come out, do some preventative maintenance. If you need a remodel, something like that, a mini-splits, never a bad idea. Call or text Travis anytime at 817, or excuse me, 469,667-7-290 or CommunityDFW.com, Dan. So today is Thursday, June 11th on this day in 1955. I know we've talked about this in the past, but it was motor racing's worst disaster. The 24-hour Le Mans race in France, two cars collided and crashed into spectators,
Starting point is 02:08:12 80 people were killed Yeah I wonder if they just kept the race going though Right 24 hour race They Yeah because I don't think that all of the crashes were at once Well no
Starting point is 02:08:29 There was one crash but it went into the stands That's the problem I watched something about this before People were like all I mean Yes it was You're like right there On this day in 1962, Thrich.
Starting point is 02:08:49 Three. What, you're saying it's fine? And they deserved it? I'm saying if you go stand around in a hundred plus years ago, cars going at that speed, you deserve to die, basically. Like, you're asking to die. Do you think...
Starting point is 02:09:06 What are we talking about? Do you think a guy standing, like, if you want to watch Rory hit, and you're like right in there, And he happens to just slice it just a bit and it goes into your temple. Certainly it seems like the risk is much lower. I guess you've got to be ready for it. But again, I'm looking at this track, dude.
Starting point is 02:09:27 These people are standing there. They're not in a... It's like courtside at the NBA. It's like courtside at the NBA. Exactly. It is exactly like that. And it's just French people, right? On this day in 1962, it's the day that three prisoners at Alcatraz
Starting point is 02:09:44 staged and escaped, they escaped. And were never found. So maybe they survived. Yeah, then I think they took over the island and demanded some better treatment of veterans from the federal government and had a warhead, actually. That's one of your better movies. God, that movie, phew. Peek. On this day in 1990, Nolan Ryan pitched his sixth no-hitter at the age of 43.
Starting point is 02:10:15 Only needed 177 pitches. Yeah. Man, he was such a... You don't know how we would mobilize to go to Cleveland Stadium if Nolan Ryan was coming through town days. That's cool. I missed that. Like, we had to go see Nolan Ryan. Because when he was like 38, it's like,
Starting point is 02:10:35 maybe this is the last time we're ever going to see Nolan Ryan. Jake, on this day in 2007. You know what? Why should I give the story? Let me just say two words. let you give the story. Larry Craig. Larry Craig was a U.S.
Starting point is 02:11:00 Congressperson, Congressman. He's a big, big fella. And he was busted in an airport in Minneapolis as part of like a gay sting. He had, I guess, correctly pointed out this was a bathroom that was a hookup for dudes. And the signal was to sit underneath, or to sit on the toilet and put your,
Starting point is 02:11:23 foot underneath a certain stall and wave it around. And he did that. And they caught him. And he said that he was just in there taking a dump and that he has an abnormally wide stance. So his, maybe the greatest politician excuse of all time was just, I got a big base. And when I, when I, when I, when I, you said he's a big man. He's a big guy. Well, there you go.
Starting point is 02:11:49 Yeah. It's like, dude, dudes, dudes are really having sex at the airport. at least back then, you know, when it was a little bit harder to be gay. On this day in 2005, Kevin McBride was an Irish heavyweight boxing champion, and he beat Mike Tyson. I love to hear that one, that bad radio. Did that stop me from betting on Mike Tyson, what, 20 years later against Jake Paul? Or Logan Paul? One of the got polls.
Starting point is 02:12:28 Here's a weird story on this day in 2009, 29-year-old. Kimberly Crone. Look her up. She was in Forney, Texas. Jackrabbits. A bolt of lightning hit her home, entered through a recessed kitchen ceiling light, and struck a pan that she was holding.
Starting point is 02:12:55 Oh, my God. What did you do? And the electricity went through her and shot out of her toe. She survived and was hospitalized for three days. her little kid called 911. Good Lord. It bounced off the pan she was holding? Yeah.
Starting point is 02:13:17 That's crazy. Hit the pan and then went through her. We should get her on. Buddy? Yeah. Yeah. Let's get to know Kimberly Crone. Do you think she speaks Chinese now?
Starting point is 02:13:33 Can play the piano? I don't know. That's probably Quicksand too. And it might have also been the John Travolta the smash hit phenomenon. Such a great. But I think I was under the impression that if you got struck by lightning and lived, you could do anything. You should be able to math.
Starting point is 02:13:53 Any language, it's just right there revealed to you. If that was true, would people be trying to get hit by lightning? Probably. Yeah. Like if it were more verifiable, high risk. Even it's a 25% chance that you're going to be a super genius. Yeah. Or dead.
Starting point is 02:14:08 But you kind of got nothing going. right you're you're ready to do squid games okay and you're like all right i'll do this i'm sure this is bs but this this update from 2023 on the lady yes this is i think like the weather channel did it tell me a lot about her she says that she can now sense storms when they're coming hell yeah what does she displace dan henry all the like, Fox is like, look, I'm sorry, Dan. You've done all the book learning, you can. This is her thing.
Starting point is 02:14:48 She's like the griffy of, she's just naturally great. Man, that's awesome. My house got struck by lightning once. It's a traumatizing experience. I could tell her about that. My chest will get real tight when the storm's coming. Dan's pants get tight when storm. I know.
Starting point is 02:15:08 And on this day, in 2024 is the day the hawk to a girl was discovered. Hawk to a girl. That was 2024? Mm-hmm. That was a crypto scam ago. Yep. So we have June 11th, this day in Dumb Zone history.
Starting point is 02:15:27 In 2020, Dan's oldest daughter had three hats in front of her. It was Arkansas, LSU, and Clemson. Oh, really? This is the day she chose? Yep. That was our 115 segment. She chose Clemson. Uh, this was also the day we reviewed Zookeeper with George.
Starting point is 02:15:45 Oh, game changer. Shut up. My notes say, uh, Dan was shocked it made $170 million in the box office. Dan thinks it's the worst movie ever. That's just, I don't know, foolishness. I really enjoyed it, because it's funny. It's funny as hell. It's animals talking, Dan.
Starting point is 02:16:09 Here. Here's a scene. Look, is there anything else I can do for you? With Kevin James talking to a gorilla that he's hanging out with? Because he was a zookeeper, Dan. Look, is there anything else I can do for you? Can you get me my view back? You know, it's not my call.
Starting point is 02:16:29 I miss, you know, seeing the world.

That's being a guy who wants to make sure you get all the information out that you want. My other note was, if Jake could pick one country to choose women from, it was Brazil.
Starting point is 02:17:44 Yeah, I stand by that. Because of the waxing? No, just zest, buts. I just like the whole, I just like the, I like fire. Danes is now Indian. Cajuns are almost like white Brazilians. Yeah, India. Let's go.

Starting point is 02:18:23 Ranger at one point. Was a Ranger. Do you know? He's the only player in Major League Baseball history to hit for a cycle in the postseason. Wow. However. So much better than the three home run guy the other day. I'm going to move past that because I don't remember what you're saying.
Starting point is 02:18:43 Just a guy. Go ahead. Yeah. However. So he had a single, double, triple. Not in that order. But he needed the home run. They're winning 14 to 2. They served him. And the other team had their catcher pitching. In the playoffs? Yeah, well, it's 14 to 2. It doesn't. Well, maybe there's actually a reason at that point, right? And so Brock Holt needs a home run for the psycho. He hit it.
Starting point is 02:19:13 I don't like that. See, that's the thing. People are usually just raising that, using that fun people. of history and thinking, oh, look, I'm just going to give that. Give a little context and we're not going to be that impressed. Right? As impressed. That's fair. That's really, really lame. Especially for baseball that takes itself so seriously about stuff like that.

And there's a few pages on like famous shipwrecks. And so she's asking me questions about the Titanic. And it occurs to me like both you, me, I don't know, it probably goes for all of us. If I were like a teen, just how good? God damn funny. I would have thought it was that they wrecked that boat on the first time out.
Starting point is 02:30:39 Yeah, because for weeks they're leading up to, yeah, months probably. First time, dude. Do you know how they build it? It was built as the unsinkable. Right. You know how boats saw before this moan in history were built? Not this one. This is the new way to build boats.
Starting point is 02:30:56 There is no way to sink. They never saw it again. The Japanese didn't sink it. No, you just hit a piece of ice. It's very funny to me. But I'm a bad guy, so I don't know, you know. No, if that would have happened today, Twitter would have been a fun place for a few hours. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 02:31:19 Oh, my God. This segment of the Dumb Zone brought to you by Frankl and Frankel. Even if you die in a car accident, we could help your living family get the bag. Frankl and Frankl. Insurance companies will try to take advantage of you. What? Or a boat accident? Sure.
Starting point is 02:31:38 It's personal injury attorneys. They have different guys that have different areas of specialty. Do they have a boat accident specialist at Frankel and Frankel? The way to find out is to call 214-333333-33. All threes. You will talk to a partner when you call, Marker Scott Frankel or Jean Burkett, and they'll kind of talk you through your thing. In fact, I think our buddy who got, his wife got an offenderbender, called Frankel and
Starting point is 02:32:09 Frankl, talked to Gene Burkett, and kind of talked him through his different, decided this isn't big enough for Frank. This isn't a big deal. But they're going to kind of shoot you straight and tell you what kind of a deal it is. So it's family owned, it's client first. They have all the experience, all the knowledge, like the voice said, to get you your bag, 214 or 817, and then dial all threes. and now we come to a place in the program that we call the closing remarks.
Starting point is 02:32:43 Yeah. And for that, we have a guy who knows Blake not willing to commit to say it's his best friend. It is Andrew. Now, do you consider Blake to be your best, if you got married, would you have two best men? I never thought there was a question. It was just one. You thought until this day. Yeah, unfortunately.
Starting point is 02:33:11 That Blake felt the same about you. Yeah, I felt a little weird sitting here, but I mean, it is what it is, I guess. You'll push through. Yeah. So he's got a lot of firefighter stories, and then I want you to let, first though, I want you to let them in on your trade-up challenge. How did it start and where are you now? So the trade-up challenge is a story you guys may have heard before. Like a paper clip?
Starting point is 02:33:38 Yes, exactly. This guy back 10, 15 years ago, traded a paperclip all the way up to a house. And I always thought that was a cool story. And I always wanted to try it. So, you know, just randomly one day I was thinking about it. I was gifted a 25-year shelf life, survivalist, doomstay, prep, food. And, you know, obviously that sounds really weird. Buckets and buckets of MREs just.
Starting point is 02:34:05 It is given to you. Six buckets as a Christmas gift. 25 years worth? 25-year shelf life. It's worth about one and a half years. Okay. Yeah. And it just sat in the garage, didn't think much of it.
Starting point is 02:34:17 And, you know, I looked it up, obviously, and it was worth $800, somewhere in there. I thought, oh, that's a good place to start this trade challenge. I've always been interested in it. So I was like, why not? So I went to Facebook Marketplace and started sending messages. And, you know, I had Chad, GPT, make me a message, looked pretty good, sent it. instantly I got some, you know, good feedback. They were like, oh, yeah, send me pictures.
Starting point is 02:34:41 So you would not have traded it for $1,000. You wanted to do trade? I mean, yeah, I was down for $1,000. Oh, okay, I didn't know. No one would have taken it. Okay. Yeah. I mean, I was open to that.
Starting point is 02:34:52 All right. I also listed it shortly, and then I took it off because I don't want someone to see it. Like, he's trying to sell it for $300. Why would I trade something worth $1,000? All right. So I took it off. ChatGBCC. ChatGBTBT made an awesome, you know, description for me.
Starting point is 02:35:07 started sending it got some awesome feedback people like yeah send me pictures so then um about 455 messages later i realized no one wanted it literally 455 finally someone said yeah i'll take it it was for a four-wheeler i wasn't specifically targeting four-wheelers i was targeting generators four-wheelers anything worth value the goal was always to trade up so i got a four-wheeler drove all the way to oklahoma to get it loaded it up turned out to be a piece of crap but you know i had a good friend works to me at the fire station he was pretty good at fixing it cost me about 50 bucks to fix it up change out the carburetor battery boom had a four-eular worth a thousand dollars awesome we're rolling so then i start you know give another description made awesome pictures shine up the tires
Starting point is 02:35:54 let's go you know let's get this traded for something else started targeting anything worth one thousand to three thousand dollars and this one took surprisingly the the feedback was great again Awesome, awesome feedback. People wanted more pictures, wanted more descriptions. 460 to 470 messages later, I got a response finally. Trade it for a 20-foot trailer. And now I think I'm really cooking. Nothing can go wrong. At this point, my goal initially was an RV or a boat, you know, just something cool to have recreationally, do with friends, have a good time. but now my goals are much higher.
Starting point is 02:36:37 Yeah, why stop? I'm thinking house. Yeah. That's the ultimate goal now. And unfortunately, the trailer had some problems. They had a broken axle. So that cost about $200. Again, I called my friend.
Starting point is 02:36:51 You know, he hooked it up big time. But I got this 20-foot trailer, and I think it's over. You know, I can do this. So at this point, I've got the trailer, 20-foot-long, awesome, looks good, shine it up real good, awesome description. And, you know, the feedback was even better. Each step I take, this is getting easier. And I have a lot of, like, confidence, too,
Starting point is 02:37:17 because I started with this bullshit food that no one wanted. So then I, you know, start targeting vehicles. And ironically, I didn't think this would happen just based on how I was going to start. But, you know, it took about the same kind of messages. So I'm thinking that's just kind of the standard. and I hit a roadblock that I didn't think I was going to hit, and Facebook had banned me. Oh. Yeah, that was a tough blow.
Starting point is 02:37:43 Too many messages. Too many messages. Wow. Rate limited you. Yeah. And they blocked me from messaging, so I was like, man, it's over, you know. I'm stuck with this 20-foot trailer that is cool, but, you know, I got to store it. It's just a lot. Well, I went to Craigslist, and I think that's where, you know, everything just worked perfectly
Starting point is 02:38:03 at the right time. went to Craigslist at the right time. I hadn't been there in 15 years. And I saw a mini truck. Japanese mini truck, 25,000 miles, right-hand steering. It was just awesome. There it is. Oh, hell yeah.
Starting point is 02:38:18 Wow. That's it. And you got it? I got it. I drove three hours there with the trailer. And I went to Mazeville, Oklahoma, which I had never been to. And I saw this thing and it was pretty awesome. That is sick.
Starting point is 02:38:33 Yeah. Yeah, it was awesome. How big is it? Is it like a mail truck size? I think if I laid from one end to the other, I could almost touch it. And then, you know, obviously. The length of the whole vehicle is only that long? About that, yeah.
Starting point is 02:38:46 Okay. And I drove it around a little bit, and it was awesome. It was so awesome. This guy was just like a great dude. It was a trucker for 35 years. I lived on this ranch. His wife is Chinese. He was like a hillbilly white guy.
Starting point is 02:39:03 And he was... Mail order bride? It's strongly possible. Yeah. But he was a great guy, very nice, very, you know, just willing to work with me. And the truck is just amazing. Everyone that I've shown it to had a similar reaction to which you guys just had. Just joy.
Starting point is 02:39:23 And I think the trade challenge may be over for now. Because I don't want to trade that thing. I just like it too much. I mean, that's pretty good. You started with $300. $600 worth of food you didn't buy. To me it was worth us, but retail. Food that you would put in your bomb shelter.
Starting point is 02:39:40 Exactly. Yeah. And each stage along the trade up challenge, the people were more weird. But the time and everything that you put into this. Two months. And the messaging and... The messaging was pretty annoying just because the food was the worst because not only were people saying no, but they were also insulting me. and you know I don't want to I mean my natural reaction was to insult them back but I never did that
Starting point is 02:40:10 you know a lot of people would be like why why would I want that and I'm like I know that obviously why do you need to tell me that so that was pretty tough so Craigslist is still popping huh no not really oh that was just the fluke because you know I was still looking just I still monitor it and it's probably like the same 20 to 30 items and that's with like a 200 mile radius that I put on my filter. I know a wild story. It's pretty good though. Buckets of food to a Japanese mini truck.
Starting point is 02:40:42 Yeah, it was good. Along the way, I did accidentally message one of my friend from the fire department. I didn't think that was going to happen. He was like, you know, whenever I got my messages, my yeses, it was like, when I saw the message, I'm like, okay, this is something. And so when I messaged him, he's like throwing a pack of cigarettes and we call it a deal. So I just saw that. I didn't connect the two.
Starting point is 02:41:04 I was like, hell yeah. you know, I got another deal. Because, you know, at this point, I'm like 500 messages deep. And then I see it's my friend. I'm like... You're just having with you? Yeah, he was having with you. And you have a business?
Starting point is 02:41:18 Did you want to plug it? Yeah, let's do it, yeah. What is this business? It's extermination. I do pest control on the side. And, you know, I do preventative. I do take care of about 150, 200 different kind of insects. Right now, summertime's real big.
Starting point is 02:41:31 But I do cockroaches is a huge one. Also take care of was spiders, ants, ticks, fleas. Right now it's kind of a big season for it. So, you know, I do a lot of... Tell me about, do you guys... I think I'll be made fun of if I say this word, but this is what we called it. Do you know what a potato bug is?
Starting point is 02:41:51 My wife has said that. I don't know what it is, though. Do you know what a roly-poly is? Oh, okay. That's a potato bug. Yeah. Well, when I looked up potato bug just now, something else came up.
Starting point is 02:42:02 where I grew up, that's a potato bug. A roly-poly. Interesting. And I took three of those out of my house two days ago. Is that like a... Yeah, they're dead. Do you spray for that? Yeah, they're dead.
Starting point is 02:42:15 Instantly. You would have eradicated the potato bug at my house? Not only them, but roly-poly's as well. What do you think about the muddobbers? They're nature's friend, correct? They can't hurt you? That's what they say, but I mean, it's your home, you know? Do you want muddubers there?
Starting point is 02:42:29 Yes. No, I don't. I work there sometimes, and I don't. No, he's leading the witness. He looks like a damsel in distress. He'll stand on top of a table and eke. He's got a stinger on it. He'll eke.
Starting point is 02:42:41 I've been attacked. It could land on you. It's, again, it's nature's friend. He's there to help you. They're predators. He's not going to use that stinger. Have you ever seen a good guy with a gun? It's just, it's, he's got a concealed carry.
Starting point is 02:42:58 He's fine. He's a guy you want. You want them around, because if those. those hornets come in, he'll take care of them for you. So you're a part-time firefighter, part-time exterminator. How can people find you? Oh, look at Blake, kind of moving that long. That's right.
Starting point is 02:43:14 That sounds been like a best friend of me. Not a co-best friend. Yeah, exactly. All you got to do is search 911 exterminators based out of Forney, but we work all over. We do anywhere from far north and 75 all the way down, you know, south. And we, you know, cover pretty much any area. the DFW and you just look up 911 exterminators and I'd be happy to work for anyone.
Starting point is 02:43:38 911 exterminators. Yes, sir. Anywhere in DFW? Yes, sir. And if they request you show up in the minotruck? That's extra, but I'll do it. You will, okay. I appreciate that you say there's cockroaches because when I first moved into my house,
Starting point is 02:43:53 yes, sir. Like 15 years ago or so. Mm-hmm. I think the lady there didn't really want to sell. They were getting divorced, and she really loved the house. She may or may not have slashed my tires once I moved in. A lot of conjecture about that. You ever hear about that when I moved in?
Starting point is 02:44:13 That's why we got the security cameras, because someone slashed my tires. That's aggressive. And then I got the tires replaced, and the next week someone slashed my tires again. Yeah. And it was the lady that sold the house? All conjecture.
Starting point is 02:44:34 but she's the one that sold it Nah Her ex-husband sold it She was still living in it Why she mad at you? Well I don't know I don't know
Starting point is 02:44:42 Honey, yeah I don't know But the point is When I When we were looking at the house Deciding whether to buy it or not The first day we Looked at the house We noticed something on the floor
Starting point is 02:44:56 And it was a cockroach And the realtor said Do you know what the realtor said? Do you know what people say in Texas? I don't know what she said. It's just a waterboat. That's a water bug. That's a water bug.
Starting point is 02:45:11 Yeah, that's a Texas thing. It's a water bug. I was like, all right. In Ohio, they look like, that looks like an Ohio cockroach, but okay. And I think the lady wasn't clean, like we went back three days later and that same guy was still there. So I think she was on purpose, like, keeping. the house looking crappy. She's nuts.
Starting point is 02:45:35 She was a little bit... But you'll get rid of the waterbugs and the cockroaches? Both American cockroaches and German cockroaches. There are different nationalities of cockroaches? There's even an oriental cockroach. All dead. Wow. Did you know the cockroach survives since the dinosaur ages?
Starting point is 02:45:56 That's what I've heard. Do you buy that? I would say more likely yes than no. Now, they didn't have 911 exterminator back then. Oh, yeah. It's a different world. And if they did, yeah. You talk about the butterfly.
Starting point is 02:46:09 That's a cockroach effect. Has anyone ever, go ahead. No. Has anyone ever told you kind of have the affect of Aaron Rogers? I have never heard that, but I wouldn't have seen that. I wouldn't imagine that being a good thing. No, it's not a bad thing, but does he not sound a lot? Did you hate Aaron Rogers?
Starting point is 02:46:25 Close your eyes? I mean, he's all right. I think I probably hate him more, but now that he's almost done, you appreciate him more. You're inoculated though, right? Not vaccine. Immunized. Immunized. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:46:36 Immunized. Well, thanks for coming up. Thanks for Blake. Thank you, guys. No. This must have come loose because I'm playing shit, dude. Hmm. Like I said,
