It doesn't have to just be the TRT. peptides are all the rage joined the ranks of us peptidians I was hoping Travis
Starting point is 00:01:06 and Matt Grimm would be in here when we did a game day spot because Travis informed me he's a big man like 6-7-68 that due to his 6-7 due to his his peptides usage
Starting point is 00:01:21 he is under three bills for the first time in like 15, 20 years Oh really? Yeah looking great well get out to one of those It's 12 area locations. Game day.
Starting point is 00:01:34 Dot, dumbzone.com. Is that where we send people? Hello? No? In the Stinger? Then we do the open. I won't do that, sorry. We're touchy in Oklahoma.
Starting point is 00:01:55 No D-Hull drumming. Hello, friends. Happy Monday. We are not in the Game Day Men's Health Studio, downtown Dallas. We are not high atop my garage. We are in Oklahoma. We are the Dumb Zone. I'm Dan McHell.
Starting point is 00:02:30 I'm Jake Kemp. I'm Blake Jones. Foodie CK is here, of course, on a break from a Bigfoot hunt. Yes, you already mentioned we have Travis Gafford is here from Community Mechanical. Wire Will is here from Wire Will. Matt Grimm is here. Did a reversal, drove him. Right?
Starting point is 00:03:02 Yeah. You drove Matt Grim? I did. Did he respect the 100-mile rule? He had some pointers for me. Ask grass gas. Oh, yeah, we did that. The roadie?
Starting point is 00:03:14 Yeah. You watch me piss in a piss jar? Hell yeah. I think given our limited exposure to the audience yesterday, we should act probably like it didn't happen, right, and proceed. Numbies were okay. That's fun. It had a lot of fun.
Starting point is 00:03:30 But just to restate, yes, we are at Jeremy from Trident Access Services. Jeremy. Jeremy. Cabin, stay away, the bucket list. Lodge in Broken Bow slash Hoachetown, Oklahoma. This is great. It is great. He offered it up to us.
Starting point is 00:03:51 And then Travis from community, Wire Will from Wire. They're men of business so they can just come up here for a couple days. They got in last night at about 11 o'clock, 10.30, 11 o'clock. Wire Will had had to travel for a memorial with Wire Scott, his brother, for Wire dad who had passed away. Oh, no. Wires got frayed. He shorted out.
Starting point is 00:04:19 All right. Will's outside right now. And speaking of that, they got in last night, we finished up the fight. I went to sleep on the couch. We were all out within maybe 45 minutes of them getting here. Alexa, our friend who lives up here leaves.
Starting point is 00:04:37 So we're all done by maybe 1130. We started wrestling about it around 6 a.m. this morning. Got up, got moving. I went out to my car. And when I came back inside, they were not in here. So I went out back to Jeremy's patio where there's a kitchen, an entertainment area, and a hot tub. Were they? And there were two dudes both giant.
Starting point is 00:05:04 At 6 a.m.? 6.10. I looked down. 6.09. The both of them are just, and I don't know. Is there any water left in that thing? Because they're big. Big boys, dude. Those are two of the biggest guys they know.
Starting point is 00:05:15 The sun was up. I was telling you guys last week how crazy it is that it's bright-ass, you know, early outside at $5.50. It's a lot lighter in Oklahoma, too. And this hemisphere. Farcer to the sun, yeah. The windy city. And there, you know, it opens up the back of this cabin to, like, the woods.
Starting point is 00:05:33 So it's an open porch. The hot tub is basically just at the entrance to the forest. And they're just sitting there. The two of them. I'm like, man, I really want to get in, but I just, I feel like it's an ender. Do you know what I mean? Like, I feel like there are just some activities. It doesn't, it's not the start of your day.
Starting point is 00:05:52 Right. What? Is it just a sauna almost? It's like a nice, a nice early bird, you know, gummy. And the sauna, you wake up? Well, the sauna, the 5 a.m. sauna club is very, or the early morning sauna is really nice. And it does kind of, but you got to have enough space, I think. in between when you want to do stuff,
Starting point is 00:06:12 which for me is not immediate. Speaking of doing stuff, so we did the thing we did it do on all trips, right? We overplan thinking we're going to be so bored because we're not at home. We're going to have endless hours to do everything we ever want. Right.
Starting point is 00:06:30 And so... Family photos organized. That's one that'll make it to every trip for me. Oh, dude, I brought a book. Like, I'm going to start this book. I've been meaning to read this book. I charge... When in the hell am I going to read a book?
Starting point is 00:06:42 I charged my Kindle. Every second. Very presumptuous. And so now I'm wondering how we're going to fit in anything because long ago we did schedule, hey, what if we do the quarterly business review? It's a thing we do every, you know, quarterly. Every three months. And we'll do that in Oklahoma because we'll just be there.
Starting point is 00:07:05 Nothing to do in Oklahoma. So we'll just fire that off from the high. house, it'll be cool. And now I am wondering, do we postpone it? Uh-oh. And would that be wrong to the quarterly, what would those people think? Those are our most precious, right? Listener, like big supporters, but would they be cool if we said, what if we did this? I take my lead from you on this. And my wife, right, but I operate in a space of, I'm real worried that, It's mostly selfish, but I'm worried people are going to think I'm a flake. Or I'm worried that I'm going to be like making them have a bad time.
Starting point is 00:07:46 So I'll do shit that I don't want to do is suboptimal, et cetera. I would never consider moving it. But now that you bring it up... We have a lot we would like to do. Yeah, I mean... That includes bowling, a maze. I would like to do all that stuff every day, but you have things you agree to do and then you do them. But this is the only thing.
Starting point is 00:08:08 only day we can do those things. I'm not against it. Because we're in Oklahoma. You can't do them and. Well, you know, we're not all going to be together. No one's handing you a crying baby. Right. Right.
Starting point is 00:08:18 What time did we schedule review for, five or six? Six. Six. I put a poll up in the chat. Okay, pull the chat and pull, what's that other thing? Discord. And then I guess, I don't know, but I guess if we were going to decide this, that's just you know what?
Starting point is 00:08:40 I think Matt Grimm is a. a premium subscriber, we can kind of ask, like, could you speak for the, he has, speak for the group? At one point. And we'll do it. Many people are like, well, socialists, what sort of policies? Well, you can force companies to have a board seat that is occupied by a representative of the workers. Elizabeth Warren once had a policy similar to this. Do we call that?
Starting point is 00:09:06 Is Matt Grimm, the board member for the workers for the? Right. Yeah. When he comes down, we'll ask him. Typically, they vote for him, but they're just going to have to deal with what he decides. And if he says it's time to review business, then. This will be like when the Cowboys say that the players voted for DAC as team captain. Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 00:09:25 What if they had a secret ballot? Now they say that it's Brandon Aubrey. And Dak didn't make the team captain. Would they ever actually reveal? No, they couldn't. This is the thing. There are so many things that you could actually be critical of him for. I'm just, I'm not being critical of Dak.
Starting point is 00:09:40 You pick one of the things that, you know, it would be like taking Patrick Boholm's deep ball away from him. The guy's a goddamn leader. Like, I don't know how many, I don't know how many times we have to do this. Leads him to 17 games a year, for sure. I want to agree with you that he is a dork, but not marrying a woman because she won't let you sleep around is such badass behavior. Well, we don't know for sure that that's what happened. But after, you would think, though, was the, I'm tearing this house down, so I'll never have sex in this particular house with anybody but you, wasn't that enough? Like it's the, hey, then you will admit that I am an NFL quarterback and I can do my thing.
Starting point is 00:10:27 Like Jerry, Jerry does stuff on the side. Does he drag another's down with him? I, uh... All my buddies do it too. Yeah, look at CD has four phones. I really hope. I saw a tweet the other day that was like very cryptic, and I probably shouldn't even repeat it,
Starting point is 00:10:45 but it said something like hearing that there's an NFL quarterback who has knocked up a friend, like recently separated NFL quarterback who has knocked up a friend. When we heard about him with his, quote, friend, the rodeo? We have a listener who says he's known her and him for a long time. They've been friends for a long time. Have you ever had sex with a friend? Uh, yeah, probably.
Starting point is 00:11:12 College type? Yeah. Yeah, your buddies and you just, yeah. And it's weird because now I guess I'm just older, and even with Game Day, I guess just not quite as horny, because that actually seems like a reasonable idea to me, like being friends with a female and not, you know? It's very possible 10, 15 years ago.
Starting point is 00:11:29 I'm not sure that was really in the cards. But in any case, if you want to do Cowboys talk all day to day, I think that's what most people are thinking about after the Knicks have won the championship is just, is it is it a year for legacy teams to that's that is what most people are talking about dude i swear let's i shouldn't even tell you guys this but i say that to you guys in jest but sometimes i don't know that you guys realize that that's how i actually feel and that's the sort of things i'll say to my wife there's no there's no recording there's no one to call me gay
Starting point is 00:12:07 and I'll be like, just imagine what it's going to be like when the Cowboys win this. And she's like, have the Knicks not won it a long time. I'm like, yeah, you know, the Knicks, Lakers are kind of like the Cowboys of the NBA, except the Knicks haven't won it a long time. I was like, you know, look how people are reacting to this. This will be this times 10 in Texas when the Cowboys win. And she was like, that will be so cool. And the next morning, I swear to God, dude.
Starting point is 00:12:33 I swear to God. she goes you didn't tell me that the Knicks hadn't won since 1974 she's like that's 22 more years than since the Cowboys have won. So what is she saying? Like it's going to take that much longer? Yeah. Yeah. I was like a halfway there.
Starting point is 00:12:54 I was equating it as like, see. Yeah. It all comes home. Boston Red Sox. New York Knicks. Cubs. And I tried to explain to her. I feel like we have zero because they were all pre-cap.
Starting point is 00:13:09 Well, yeah, and there's a lot of cowboy fans now who are adults who can go to games who can say they haven't won in my lifetime. Yeah, it's true. They were all pre-capped. Let me tell you about no cap. That's what you're going to get from Fairlease. Oh, all right. No BS.
Starting point is 00:13:26 They're going to shoot you straight. They just did a deal with our good friend Brandon Aubrey. They did. And they'll do the same sort of good deal with you because they're backed by the credit union to Texas. That makes this very easy. They don't have a bank to call for financing. They can work with you. They can take a look at your credit history, your business is credit history, because they also do commercial stuff. In fact, there's a Fair Lease vehicle parked right out front here today, a community mechanical suburban that they got from Fair Lease.
Starting point is 00:13:56 Is that one he's really been beaten up? Well, I don't. Yeah. I mean, that's, I think, probably okay within the terms of your very fair lease agreement. Yeah. Call 972705. It's like the jackass thing. Remember when they rented the car? That's what the Fair Lease vehicle looks like right now, if Danny's listening.
Starting point is 00:14:14 They get you any car you want, though. Get it to you. And like I said, the financing angle here is great because, you know, they're not just ripping you off. If there's a profit, they roll it back into the Community Bank customer base. It's a good bit. Fair lease, when you don't know what to do about a car, because car stuff. is hard. You don't need a dealership, baby.
Starting point is 00:14:43 Before we get to sports, let's do a quick weekend check. All right? Yeah. I mean, we can call, because there are a ton... This might be the biggest sports weekend we've ever had, if you think about the magnitude of... I mean, off the rip, I want to reject that, but if you... Because I was thinking... If you add in game four.
Starting point is 00:15:10 No. We don't have to have... Game four of what? I just mean if you add in the fact that we had the comeback in the NBA finals and then the NICS closed it out. What do you mean? I mean, since we were on a broadcasting Friday, because I was thinking about the NHL finals this morning and how they got monged over the weekend and trying to think, well, what has happened? Since we were on the air Friday, the USA has a dominant World Cup victory. It's a story.
Starting point is 00:15:41 I agree. I agree. It's a huge story. But I realize not everybody cares about it, but it is a big story. The Knicks win the NBA finals. Which is the bigger story? Who knows? The NHL finals, Carolina. The UFC fight on the White House lawn. So that pushes aside like the Texas Tech story.
Starting point is 00:16:12 And on a. normal weekend, maybe you would have walked in here on Monday and said, holy S, that my top story here is that Alden Smith is dead. Yeah. That's out of nowhere. No? Just rough. Yeah, no, I mean, he was only been, do you remember how he ended up in Dallas?
Starting point is 00:16:37 Jay Glazer. I just remember he was having lots of troubles and. A lot of trouble. You know, you're always going to take a chance on a troubled guy that might get you double-digit sacks. And then he was gone after a year, right? Yeah. Jay Glazer has kind of become the mental health meathead. And he was working out with him.
Starting point is 00:17:00 And he trains with a bunch of NFL guys and sort of like vouched with him for McCarthy and Stephen. I remember what's the story. Is he NFL Rogan? Big time. Big time. Because he just feels like Joe Rogan. Yeah. And that's really good too because, you know, Rogan, one thing about
Starting point is 00:17:18 Rogan is he'll just get interesting people together and that's definitely something that that what's his name does. It's like he's getting Guy Fiery and Al Pacino together. I like it. Yeah, no, I mean, Alden Smith was a very troubled individual. So that...
Starting point is 00:17:36 Says recently he was working at a roofing company in Texas and living out of an extended stay hotel. Damn. Yeah. Speaking of... that. That leads into my, so I'll do some weekend check because driving to Oklahoma was a big deal. I programmed my car, my watch, everything to stay on Texas time, so we're good.
Starting point is 00:18:02 Nice. Nice. And I have a new challenge for you because I stopped in Idavel, Oklahoma, not Isabelle. Idavel. Ida Bell. Ida, I-D-A-B-E-L. And my new challenge is, maybe it's just for a week.
Starting point is 00:18:23 You have to stay at the economy in. Done yesterday, bro. If you've passed... I'll do that. You haven't passed the economy in in Ida Bell, Oklahoma, dude. Okay, well, I'm going to look it up, but I need you to know who you're talking to and understand that if I am in solace,
Starting point is 00:18:39 then I am happy. Now, if you need to, you can walk down the street. Why would they even put pictures of these rooms online? Are they AI? It's, no, no. It's the worst thing you've ever seen. It's like, I didn't even know they were still, like at this point of having this small of a TV, don't have a TV. It's like a 17-inch black and white TV.
Starting point is 00:19:02 Walk down the street and across the road and you will walk to a casino in a strip mall. Okay, I mean. In Idabell, Idavel, Oklahoma. And then as you work your way up here to Broken Bow. or what's the now incorporated place called? Hotchatown, Hoachetown, Hokotown. You do start to see, we got emails about this. If you're going to Oklahoma, you're going to hear a lot about Bigfoot.
Starting point is 00:19:35 There's one outside. Yep. It's got a Roswell. Roasted marshmallows. You know the kid peeing on something or whatever, the silhouette little metal thing they sell. Right. That you can put in your yard and it's like, oh, well,
Starting point is 00:19:50 the Sasquatch, the silhouette Sasquatch is all over. We've fought about this. Sasquatch? I didn't say it. They both looked at me and went... He made the bad face first.
Starting point is 00:20:03 Well, it's like Porsche. Yeah. I'm the high-tone saucequatch. The pinky is out when I drink my tea and I mentioned that I saw the saucequatch.
Starting point is 00:20:15 I think the saucequatch fajitas. Yeah, it's a thing. which means you got nothing right the go-kart place is called bigfoot go-carts and they even have a gas station now this isn't just a little sign it's like a corporate gas station it's called gas-quatch hell yeah pretty good pretty good like is that like a shell but they're like hey let's just put a different name on it in this town we love it okay we love it um i did see the welcoming committee of broken bow he was walking on the of the road. He had an extreme mullet, a trucker hat. It was 90 degrees out. He's wearing jeans, mustache. He was probably 6'3, 140 pounds. That's your standard Oklahoma build. And a, don't worry, he won't lose his wallet. It's chain to his pants. There is a long chain, just letting me know, don't even try to steal that wallet. Sure.
Starting point is 00:21:21 Maybe a t-shirt representing a band made up of rapping clowns. Yeah. I feel like ICP, their heat map is heavy in these parts. Now, I went out and just took a little walk around. There's a lot of cabins out here. We're at a place called the Bucket List Lodge. I understand you guys had to go drive somewhere to have a walk. We just drove to the State Park.
Starting point is 00:21:51 Okay. Well, I was walking around This is like a state park to me I mean, that's cool And they have wacky names for the cabins That I was walking by You know, liquid therapy lodge Now that one
Starting point is 00:22:05 When I pull in, I'm going to do some drinking, bro I'm here I'm at the liquid therapy lodge Get the IV in here Oh, okay It does. It has like Yeah, I looked it up You got your caddy shack
Starting point is 00:22:19 You got your Deerfield Lodge your moon over paradise, your tiny forest retreat. One is called On a whim. And then you've got, I think it has maugged the bucket list lodge for names. It is the high-h-I-bear, like in the woods, B-E-A-R nation. Yeah, High Bear Nation. All right. And then you can go in there and high-beared nation as well.
Starting point is 00:22:50 That's very good. That's very good. Yeah, plenty names a thing here, for sure. The pizza place is called Grateful Head, which at first I didn't really, you know, it's whatever, Grateful Dead, grateful whatever. There's a bar clearly aims at Cougars called Girls Gone Wine. We need to go there. I know there. I will be there tonight at 6 p.m.
Starting point is 00:23:15 No. No, and Alexa told us like it gets rowdy. There's a place called Tipsy Beaver. There's a Beaver Mountain or whatever is the thing here. There's a couple other ones too. And then this morning I went to a vape shop. Just right there. So I wake up and get coffee.
Starting point is 00:23:35 We were all three hours. We went on a hike. And I still had three more hours of sleep left. Blake wasn't out. They're in the hot tub. And maybe this is common in some of your sketchier head shops at home. I feel like I've been to plenty, but not a big place, and one whole wall was dedicated to fleshlights.
Starting point is 00:23:59 We can go, it's on the way out. I want you to see it. I believe you. Like on the wall, and it's got like porn stars, I guess, that you would know or something on the cover, and it's like, here's... What kind did you get? Well, I wanted to come back and, because if you bulk by, we can get a deal, so I wanted to three for one?
Starting point is 00:24:17 Kind of take orders from a... everyone. Yeah, I don't know where we went this morning. What was that called? Just Brocabo State Park? Beaver Bend. Beaver Bend. Beaver Bend State Park. There it was. Yeah, there's like a pretty sick of trails, river, waterfall. Will you tell Dan everything you had to go through to try to order pizza last night? Oh my God. I mean, you know, it's just all in the game. This is a master class of patience. He called me very meekly. Yeah. His spirit had been drained. is his thing is he you know he mocks me makes fun of me that i can't order a pizza because he knows how to do it and he's got all the codes and the by the way the rangers the rangers did get you
Starting point is 00:25:01 50% off today i saw america where everywhere yeah every pizza place no says i will celebrate the rangers no the papa well well yes the papa but uh there was a time where it didn't matter where you lived they used to not like oh they wouldn't check on that so it's called geofitzing really Yeah, there's like a little swimming hole We're going to go back tomorrow morning And get in now that we know what we're looking at That sounds gross What?
Starting point is 00:25:30 It's like it's a natural Like what is gross about the being in nature Like Okay, yeah, nature swimming hole versus that hot tub on the back That wire will and Give me the hot tub Yeah What's up?
Starting point is 00:25:48 You know what I did? I got a video that was great Are you not going to talk about ordering pizza? Okay, so, yeah, there's a place called Grateful Head. It was a big talk at Miracle League basketball on Saturday because a lot of people had been up here and it became a, hey, that place is popular, but it's overrated. Like Billy, our CFO was like, yeah, it's, and I'm like,
Starting point is 00:26:12 so it's kind of a Joe T's type thing. They're like, you know, it's not that great, but it's going to be slammed. Well, we tried to call in an order that, you know, I sat on busy for a total of probably 15 minutes calling back. I hadn't heard a busy signal in so long. But that's the type of places you get them. Small town restaurants. Because either they just are too busy, they don't have the service to pay for like an actual phone system,
Starting point is 00:26:37 or they do what they had done, which I found on a message board, which is they take their phone off the hook during peak dinner hours so that they don't have to fill to go orders. I called two or three other bars. I like hearing the fax sound if you call a certain number. Oh, my God. Bars, breweries, they were all doing the same thing. It's apparently a thing. They just don't want a dude to go, so they don't answer their phone.
Starting point is 00:26:59 I finally got to a place. Jake did at one point. I guess it was Clayton. Must not want my money. Yeah. Yeah, Jake did. I established the right guy. I was like, God, must not.
Starting point is 00:27:10 Yeah, so. But eventually got a place, and I'm like, oh, shit, we're making moves. They're taking my order. She's like, yeah, we can do it. We'll be ready to have it. an hour, two large cheeses, a large pizza called a tubby Keith, named after Oklahoma legend Toby Keith that had like meatballs and bacon on it. Which I think Jake had the menu in front of him and he knew what was on it, but he wanted
Starting point is 00:27:36 to hear it from her. He said, what comes on your tubby Keith? I wanted you guys to hear it. Yeah. And we're, you know, we're at the five-yard line. and I hear like a little commotion from somebody else at the register. And I'm like, don't listen to her. Fuck her.
Starting point is 00:27:55 You stay focused. Press go. And she's like, what's that? Oh, we don't. Oh. And the other lady hops on. She's like, this is Rebecca. I'm the manager.
Starting point is 00:28:06 We're out of cheese. We can't make any pizzas with cheese. And I just go, sadly, I feel like that's all of them. He was so. Like McDonald's is out of Big Macs? He was so dejected. He looks at us. Sounds like that would be all of them.
Starting point is 00:28:21 And hung up and I was just like, what the, you know. And I guess I thought this was a bigger. All you really do is cheese. A little bigger area maybe than it was, but I was out of it, dude. I quit at that point. But he had just with so much gusto pulled the chair back, sat down, started Googling like, I'm the pizza guy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:38 Watch me work. You get to see me in action. Put on a little Italian music. And then by the end of it, he just put his phone down. It was disappointing, man. I let you all down. Gotta be responsible, don't it? We came up trying to get some stuff for breakfast,
Starting point is 00:28:52 and the Walmart was out of eggs. What about eggs? That wasn't a real Walmart. You're probably right. They got a little satellite Walmart. Maybe they'll just run out of stuff up here. Yeah, I guess that's a thing in most places. We're just really spoiled.
Starting point is 00:29:07 Yeah, no, this isn't an eye-opening experience. His damn redneck. It was fun for me because I spent four years in Oklahoma, So we would, on the weekends, we would just go to these small towns and find a camping spot. I've been camping all around here and stuff. And then just driving back in, I just forgot about the amount of the signage is just a piece of plywood that's painted on the side of the road. Like half of their election signs are just plywood painted on the side of the road. And no one's putting on airs in Oklahoma.
Starting point is 00:29:44 Yeah, we're not spending money on that. It is what it is. We say Sasquatch. And then, you know, just keep praying. But no, this is a fun little drive up. I missed the rain. That was a big thing for me because I had to get here a little earlier. I had to dodge the rain in Dallas.
Starting point is 00:30:01 What are the chances we get carried off by a twister tonight? Higher than if we were at home. For sure. Definitely the call to my mom yesterday on the way. That was a big concern of hers. what are you going to do if there is a tornado i don't know stand on you know you're in tornado alley because i gave her a link to this bucket list lodge and she's like a lot of glass windows where are you we're gonna what if there's a tornado where do you i go i don't know yeah i mean
Starting point is 00:30:34 like if it's your time is that why you chose the first floor room i i channel my inner jake on look just understand someone else's point of view like when i'm talking to my mom because i'm like why do i call you just yell at me about everything on the doing. You have to frame it like you're letting her do something she likes, even if what she likes doing is complaining. Is yelling at me about my choices. But if that's what she likes to do, then you're helping her do that.
Starting point is 00:30:58 Great concern. Then she'll Google like area, things in the area. What she come up with? Well, there is a paintball place, but it's closed. Girls gone wine. So a couple things, on my couple days off last week, I thought I had a little more time on my hands so I decided to unsubscribe from every email that I didn't want. Yeah, that's pretty good. You know there's an easy way to do it, though.
Starting point is 00:31:23 How? Relatively easy way to do it is if you go to, there's a mail tab that catches all these. I swear to you there is. Is it promotions? And it works? Try it if you're in Gmail. But it is a satisfying feeling. Well, one of my primary emails is still an AOL. It still comes to the promotions tab, though, right? No.
Starting point is 00:31:52 Well, it does, but then you can unsubscribe from it there, right? You can, from there, yeah. I always wonder about, because they say if you unsubscribe, or like if you answer a scam call, that just shows the computer that there is someone that exists on that other line and it'll increase the scam calls, or even if you say no to something. I know.
Starting point is 00:32:12 But every email, I scroll to the bottom, click the unsubscribe button, put my email address in, unsubscribe. All right, that's one of a hundred, two, three, and I don't know if it worked, but it made me feel better. My nephew is playing indoor soccer. I went to go watch them last week. And it's a big complex, like there's a couple indoor soccer fields. There's a ton of volleyball courts, a ton of basketball courts. But what there's a ton of is just other kids. other siblings running around.
Starting point is 00:32:44 And I typically don't like this person. It's the person who has very little power, but will exercise it to the nth degree. And this guy is in charge of keeping the other courts clear. So my kid and other cousins are running around. They need space. They don't need to be running around in the stands. So they'll go to the empty basketball court.
Starting point is 00:33:10 Hey, keep this one clear. clear. Here's this MFer. Hey, this court's closed. Hey, talking to four-year-olds. What are we supposed to do? Have no rules? Just let everybody go everywhere all the time? We are at a place to play. There's a schedule. This is like, this is a schedule. This is for Jaguars versus Meteors at noon. At three, it's, yeah, but it's 11. We got some time. What do you think? They're not going to mess the court up. Just let the kids run around. No, I love that. Did you say this or just mark it down in your head? just got my notes at the that's right i'll say something tomorrow did you guys
Starting point is 00:33:46 stay back let the kids play goodness indoor's pretty wild huh yeah it's better right at least it's indoor yeah that's what i mean at least it's indoor you know it's not rained out you know you're not gonna
Starting point is 00:34:01 get a somber i got to witness the american dream at my uh my gas station where i have my chug club membership um the first red flag is i saw tesla parked at the gas pump Uh-oh. It's like, all right? What'd you do? That's a strong move. Go inside and there's two Indian ladies in there at the counter.
Starting point is 00:34:23 One of them, I think, was the mom, did not speak any English. The daughter spoke very little. And they were taking their time up there and I had to stand behind them as they were buying $200 worth of lottery tickets. Love it. And I just thought, yep. Wait, the Indian people weren't, they were in line? They were at the counter. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:34:45 I thought you were saying who works behind the counter. No, they were there. Speaking to an American. Okay. Merk. What a twist. But isn't that the American, they come over here? I would like to play your lottery.
Starting point is 00:34:58 Yes. Yeah, I mean, it's something that really brings the whole world together. Gambling. Yeah, it's a real good investment. Sure. In your future, yeah. Yeah, I think so. I want to add to Jake's, are they having a good time?
Starting point is 00:35:12 list. First was animals, right? Oh, yeah. Is an animal just ever having a good time? Pharmacist? Yeah, Akash has a bit about that at his new hour, right? Pretty harried.
Starting point is 00:35:27 Oh, my God, dude. I was so glad when he said it, because I had been at the pharmacy like that day. I have to go a lot, I feel like, between the four of it, I'm the guy, and so it seems like it's once every 10 days. They're always...
Starting point is 00:35:40 That's all we... Help you. Can I help you? You're like, just pick something up. They're like, it's going to be next week. It's like, why?
Starting point is 00:35:51 I called it in. Why will it be so? I don't understand how any of this is a hard process. Do you go in the drive-thru? I mean. Because I walk in thinking that that's going to make it quicker. I walk in. I walked in and I just needed antibiotics for my kid.
Starting point is 00:36:08 I'm looking back. There's a ton of people back there. Kind of seems like you just pull what you need. What are we doing? God, yeah. And they, you've never met one that's like in a pretty good mood. No, no, no. And so the tech guy helped me and he was flustered, you know, gave it to me, whatever. He's like, before you leave, you need to talk to the doctor or pharmacist, whatever.
Starting point is 00:36:27 All right. There's a different line for that. So let's go. Let's take my four-year-old as we've been patiently waiting in line. Let's go wait in another one. We get to the front and the guy just said, yeah, keep it refrigerated. Yeah. That was it.
Starting point is 00:36:39 The other guy could not have told you. Said it right here. I didn't really need your consultation. but thanks for that 20 minutes. You know what to do with this medication? Yeah, you give it to them. You're just splashing it all over your face. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:36:50 Is this right? And then final thing, well, second final thing. We had a listener birthday party on Saturday, swim party. Brooks is really not into swim. Really? At all. But he kind of knows, he's now knowing the shortcuts of the birthday party because I told him I was at a swimming pool.
Starting point is 00:37:11 He's like, I don't really want to swim. Can I just do the pizza and cupcakes? Just all a carding. I said, yeah, sure. So we hung out in the shade. I asked him multiple times if you would like to get in and swim. He said no. And he just patiently waited and then got his cheese pizza and cupcake.
Starting point is 00:37:30 I mean... First down. Yeah, absolutely. He's figured it out. And then we bonded because my wife did not know this was a thing. we were at the grocery store, opened up the freezer, and I would say one of the top five smells
Starting point is 00:37:47 on this planet is the smell of the grocery store freezer. Yeah. My wife had no idea about it. There's something to that. I guess I've never thought about it. Is this a thing for you? I don't think he saw me, but I, of course, did it, and then he did it.
Starting point is 00:38:03 Brooks, my four-year-old. Because I love this smell. It's awesome. Does it matter what freezer it is? I don't think so. Just you're smelling the cool air. With plastic. It doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:38:17 It's a great feeling. I've never thought of that. Try it. Well, we are here for our weekend at Jeremy from Trident's Airbnb. And his business, which probably had some small part in this place, is Trident Access Services, Dan. TXTridant.com or 817512121212. Gates, garage doors, installation, repair. Tuneups.
Starting point is 00:38:47 Tuneups. We had them come out and, like, they had to fix a major problem that our previous garage door company had, like, the garage door might have fallen onto my car. They had putting it, apparently there's something called a stud, which is not just a hot guy. It's a thing in the wall that if you don't, like, fasten something into that, it'll just. just start ripping, falling out of the wall. And that's what happened. Like the old garage door company just pounded it in to wherever. And so, yeah, Jeremy and the guys came over.
Starting point is 00:39:22 Fix that. It's perfect. The garage door is so quiet. I can get in and out of there. You know, go on a late night, you know, milf hunt or whatever I like to do. Girls gone wine. And then get back in and no one knows. Sure.
Starting point is 00:39:38 It's great. TX trident.com. Dumbzone listeners will get 10% off any repairs. Get them out there and just have them check your stuff out. The springs, the lubrication. At TXTridant.com, please do tell Jeremy and the boys that the Dumbzone sent you. And it's not like going to a dentist, you know how you brush your teeth before and then they check your thing out? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:00 Like you don't do your own like, let me just grease this up and make sure everything's good. Just kick the rail. I don't want Jeremy to, you know, be upset that my garage door is noisy. No, they actually fix it and stuff for you. I asked the dentist. Not like the effing dentist. Or the dental hygienist. Hygienist.
Starting point is 00:40:19 The other day about the no-wrench thing. It was the first time I've been to the dentist instead of become an issue on the show. And she said, the newer dentists say that, which I thought was an interesting sort of split. We've got the dentist that want to go for it on fourth down? Yeah, that there's a film.
Starting point is 00:40:40 She was like, I don't know. She was like, I say, brush your teeth. Like, it doesn't, you know. Interesting. I'll have to remember that question. These new Dennis want to shoot threes. Yeah, definitely. A little high tempo.
Starting point is 00:40:53 Don't love the game. True outcome, dentists. I got a couple things here. Like I said, my family left on Friday. My kids left on Friday to go on vacation with my mom and my stepdad. I don't think I've told you guys this, but when we go on our trip, family trip,
Starting point is 00:41:15 we've got an Airbnb in Hawaii, we're bringing my mom for like a good part of that trip. That's a great bit because then it's like you care about her, so she's going to think that. Right. But you're actually paying for your nanny to go.
Starting point is 00:41:33 100%. Because it's a nanny. Some of the days I'm going to be doing the show and she's, yeah. But she love, like, That's a gift. It's like hiring Tom Brady to be your quarterback coach. It's Heather Locklear for a million dollars.
Starting point is 00:41:48 On that front, too. You can't beat it. She gets a trip to Hawaii on you, and she gets to be with her grandchildren all the time. Yeah. What could be better? So in this situation. And you fooled her into thinking that it's, you know. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:42:02 Yeah. So we had to be out of our house so that our World Cup renters could get in. That meant we went and stayed at my mom's house. Where are they from? I don't. Are they from a faraway land? No. They are from San Antonio.
Starting point is 00:42:19 Oh. However, I think their family's from all over because they did say that there were multiple people flying in to DFW and they were meeting. I don't know anything else about them. Whatever. Picked up one thing. I was in grapevine walking around the other day with my wife. There's a farmer's market there. and I had to show Dan this.
Starting point is 00:42:42 This is, they had a, they're big on sauces there. Look what we got there. Bacon flavored ketchup. I had to bring it up here on the road. With a, and it has a beard on it. It has a beard and it, no. Right. And it's trans.
Starting point is 00:43:02 Are we over bacon? I thought of you at Fox. You may have seen this. I'm convinced that every news program after 10 a.m. just has people cook for them. Yeah. It's a big part of their programming.
Starting point is 00:43:14 Well, on Thursday, they had a cookie platter. Wow. They were bacon cookies. Bacon cookies? They were bacon cookies. Yeah, cookie with bacon on top. I see absolutely nothing wrong with that.
Starting point is 00:43:28 I do. That sounds excellent to me. Why not bacon-flavored toothpaste? That's probably out there. And you can keep it in your mouth and don't have to rinse it. That's probably out there. It always tastes bacon.
Starting point is 00:43:42 And then, yeah, once we got up here yesterday, it was time to watch MMA. And that's what we did for the evening. And it was a lot of fun. It was a lot of fun. Here's a couple things I'll get off the table before we get to sports. This is like sort of sports, but I played this during the stream yesterday. And I went and read the article from 2000. that produced this audio.
Starting point is 00:44:11 This is something that was floating around online the other day. It's from a 2003 Monday night football game between the Cowboys and Giants. Jeremy Shockey made a lot of headlines during the offseason called Bill Parcells, as you know, a homo and a magazine article. Of course, if you say it to a magazine these days or say it to anybody, it goes everywhere.
Starting point is 00:44:32 All right, so that's the first part of it there. So much. Al, wait for the Internet. Yeah. So much there, though, but it's... Homo and Like is he blaming the magazine? Well,
Starting point is 00:44:44 he's blaming media for amplifying this kind of like, I mean, he just called Bill Parsell's a homo and all of a sudden everybody's like, ugh, back in my day, you could just say it. Yeah, it was great. You could kick a homo and,
Starting point is 00:44:57 you know, bury the body somewhere. Nobody'd say a thing. They called that extra points. And then he, in effect, said, no, I was misquoted. But Jeremy has to learn. When you talk to a writer,
Starting point is 00:45:09 And you don't know him that well. He's really not your friend. I mean, in a way, he's looking for something to sink his teeth in, too, and it's not a misquote. He said it. He was reported. And Bill Parcells has tended to poo-poo it as Tiki Warburne gets tackled at the line of scrimmage. Bill is sloughing it off as, you know, young guys say things that sometimes they wish they hadn't said.
Starting point is 00:45:30 So this is a... Bill's like, way do you hear what I'm about to say at the press conference later today. Yeah. No disrespect. 2003, there's a New York Magazine. article when Jeremy Shockey was early in his career with the Giants called Jeremy Shockey is living large. And clearly he had just never been around like a real reporter before because it's insane.
Starting point is 00:45:51 He's at like a photo shoot and this New York magazine reporter shows up. And here's just some quotes. As the photo shoots happening, he's coming off a three-day bender with Kid Rock and Pam Anderson. Wow. And he's having to do this shoot and he says, I'd rather play some golf and drink some beer with my friends. Like right now, I hear Montreal has the beautifulest women in the world,
Starting point is 00:46:18 and we're in a warehouse shooting a commercial. Tonight, his plans include a, quote, titty bar. I know all the French I need to, he says. Monage eto. Hell yeah. Chucky begins to perk up. He starts talking about his season. He says, the only guy who was hating was parsing.
Starting point is 00:46:37 As head coach of the Giants, Parcells won two Super Bowls last season. He was a commentator for ESPN. Shocky, quote, I never watched TV. But my buddies were like, why does Parcells hate you so much? He's talking about I've never seen a player get so much hype off of doing nothing. Parcells is not my kind of guy. He says he quits, then he wants to come back and coach, do something. Stay in commentary or stay in football or get out of everybody's life.
Starting point is 00:47:05 He says, all my buddies are like, why is he dogging you? Why is he dogging you? Shockey's chest swells. Let's see how much Parcells wins this year. I'll make him pay when we play them, the homo. Jeez. Like, that's the quote. Was that a Cowboys?
Starting point is 00:47:25 Yeah. Okay, when he first became Cowboys. Yeah. John Fossil condemned this in the... With the strongest. Yeah. Jim Fossil. Oh, that's right.
Starting point is 00:47:40 Bones' dad. Mm-hmm. Oh, he might have been around there. He might have been. Young Bones. All right. That's kind of sports. Right?
Starting point is 00:47:52 Yeah, I got a bunch of kind of sports. We have a bunch of big sports, though, too. Oh, yeah, I like that. Do we do some of the big? I mean, we got... Yeah, let's go big. We'll get back to the stuff. Will we start with the NBA Finals?
Starting point is 00:48:15 Disappointing to me? I won't start with the disappointing. Let's just... There you go. Let's just start with it's awesome what Jalen Brunson did. He certainly won that MVP that at one point was Carl Anthony Towns. Maybe Ananobe's. Ananobe was kind of the leader in the clubhouse going into that game.
Starting point is 00:48:41 but Jalen Brunson then goes out and scores like half their points, everything in the fourth quarter, just the steady hand on the helm. It's just incredible for, you know, they built a team. They built a team around Jalen Brunson. Jalen Brunson is certainly not one of the three best players in the league. No one's ever going to say that, I don't think. But big credit to him. It's good to see.
Starting point is 00:49:14 Yeah, I don't know. You always try to do the, like, what can you take from this? What could other teams emulate? What do you need? Do you have to have a two, a big two, big three, whatever? We always do that in every sport. What copycat sort of thing? It almost feels like we're getting to a point where that won't necessarily be the case.
Starting point is 00:49:32 Like, every team, there's multiple ways to do it, several ways to skin a cat. Then they did it different. I mean, they traded away all of their picks, but they did do it for a significant number of like quality guys rather than superstars. Like who's their homegrown guy? It doesn't feel like they have one. There's no one in the starting lineup, right? No.
Starting point is 00:49:55 They signed Brunson. They traded for everybody else. Mitchell Robinson probably started there. But yeah. Mitchell Robinson, great patriot as Trump. I don't know. He must be a big maggot guy because, well, Trump was congratulating the team. And never in a million years that I think Mitchell Robinson would be the one that was
Starting point is 00:50:13 Trump was like individually congratulating. But yeah, I mean, listen, they hired a bunch of guys from the world. They hired World Wide West. Tell me about him. I've told you about it many times, but it's probably been 10 plus years. All right. Yeah, so William Wesley was, he's just, honestly, he's not that different from what you kind of think of Nico as being before Nico. went real sideways, except he was like an agent.
Starting point is 00:50:47 He was a consultant and an advisor for CAA. He was just a guy who knew everybody, you know? He was a connector, a fixer. He was the guy in NBA circles. And there was a famous Bill Simmons article where I think it might have been in Dallas, actually. The All-Star game was in Dallas. And this is back when the sports guy used to write for Parenthood. page two and on ESPN.com and he had an article where he had gone out with Wesley William Wesley
Starting point is 00:51:22 we call World Wide West. And it was like 2 a.m. and they were leaving the bar or something. And Bill was trying to figure out what they were doing next. And that's when West told him, you never chased the night. And that became like a quote that people started using. Bob used to say that all the time. That like that was his like, I don't know, it's very basic, but just like the wisdom of like nothing good happens here. But he's just an advisor. And he became like a revered figure in NBA circles. And then they made him their CEO or executive of basketball operations.
Starting point is 00:52:01 They made Jalen's former agent and Rick Brunson's agent, Leon Rose, their GM. And now Leon Rose's son is Jalen Brunson's agent. and Rick Brunson's on staff. How nepotism-y? You know, I mean, yes and no, right? It is, but also they know what they're doing. And James Dolan, who is as awful of a human being, it seems like, as you could get.
Starting point is 00:52:33 To his credit, seems to have kind of gotten out of the way. Step back? Yeah, I mean, he does a lot of shady stuff with, like, fan stuff and, you know. Charles Oakley. Charles Oakley, the AI surveillance stuff they were doing to, I don't know, I think like keep a trans woman off camera. Just weird. He's just a weird guy. But kind of looks like he let people who know what they're doing for the most part run his team.
Starting point is 00:53:00 Because this is not how you thought a Knicks team would end up winning a title, right? You always figure, yes, the good players are going to go to New York. They're going to go to L.A. They'll make it easy for him. that's where they want to go. So cheat, easy mode. But they built a Milwaukee-ass basketball team. I mean, hell, maybe that's not even doing it justice.
Starting point is 00:53:23 Because they had Yonis. But this is not the way you would think the Knicks or the heat or something, you know, would be built. Right, a destination-type franchise, in theory at least. You mean, you got Brunson, but that's not, you know, again. Brunson was not this touted, you know, even like back when they got Carmelow or something, you know. That was a major name. Kyrie forever was going to be the savior. But it was the thought of LeBron when he first left Cleveland was, was it the Knicks?
Starting point is 00:53:56 Because it's the biggest stage. Blah, blah, blah. You know, when they drafted Porzengis, that was going to be the next one that was going to lead them. Vingas, pinguis. The cool thing, or I don't know if it's the cool thing. the NBA probably thinks this is a cool thing, that a franchise can win a title and set themselves up to be a serious contender for years,
Starting point is 00:54:21 you would think, here, without tanking. They never really said we're tanking. We're going to lose for three or four years as many games as possible so we can get one of those top players, because that's kind of... If you can get a Luca, LeBron, or whatever, a Janus, you know, obviously Janice wasn't well known, you know, to be the top draft pick.
Starting point is 00:54:45 But that's the way you can easily build. The easiest way to build a team is find one of those guys. Sure. And then you can build around it. That's what Patrick Dumont didn't understand, right? So, but you got to get one of those guys because those guys are really rare. And knowing it, even now I don't think you think of Jalen Brunson as one of those guys. Yeah, but I've always, and maybe this is just, you know,
Starting point is 00:55:10 It is eight different champions in eight years, so it seems like things are changing. But I've always somewhat rejected that, hey, who's your one? Who's your two? Because you don't, your two changes depending on how good your one is. But most NBA franchises, you need a one. Yeah, but how good the one is depends on how good the two is and how good the three is and how good the four is.
Starting point is 00:55:36 And so to me, it's... Yeah, but I'm going back. If we go back 10 years or 8 years, right, when this thing started, you always had to have one of those ones at scene, almost always. Right, and maybe that's... You had to have LeBron. You had to have Steph. You had, that was the whole...
Starting point is 00:55:53 Is Jason Tatum that? Well... Maybe, but I don't know. Yeah. That's widening it out. Well, it's like Dirk. Is Dirk that? But Dirk had to have quite a supporting cast around him.
Starting point is 00:56:06 You know? Yeah. I mean, even LeBron. He never won it. without some pretty significant pieces around him. I think it's more fun now than it's been in a long time. Even though that was five games, it was four games that were crazy close, super competitive.
Starting point is 00:56:22 It felt like in the first, second quarter, I was watching a, you know. Which game wasn't close? Was there one? Yeah. Was it game two? Okay. Because that last game, yeah, it was also double-digit deficit that they came back from. Yeah, and that's why I know a lot of people are...
Starting point is 00:56:42 Wimby's taking it in the shorts for saying that they dominated the series. I thought I saw something that they led. 70%? Oh, yeah. Some percent of the minutes. Yeah. Which is, I mean, that is the, a microcosm of what the NBA is all about. It's the fourth quarter.
Starting point is 00:57:01 Right? You boil it down. That's the big... And that's where Jalen Brunson does fit in. because Jalen Brunson is cold in the fourth quarter I mean a cold killer he he can take over
Starting point is 00:57:16 he can say I'll do this and that is something I don't know that Wemby can do just yet he certainly has more ability in the long term and we'll probably figure that out like what's his go-to like give me the ball I'll do it and that's what Brunson provides
Starting point is 00:57:33 it's just works so well in the playoffs too you know that Brunson, the NBA just reverts back 10 to 15 years to 20 years in the playoffs for some of the possessions, you know? And that style, like I'm going to get a two-point jumper and you can't stop me from getting to the spot I want. It's time tested, man. I don't like being this guy, but, you know, they set to record for a point differential on the playoffs. They went 16 and 3. I don't think they had the toughest run.
Starting point is 00:58:08 Now they played the schedule in front of them, and I'm not trying to, you know, tear them down. However, they didn't have to go through Tatum and Brown Celtics. 76ers were beat up. They played a really young Detroit team. And honestly, if the Thunder had had Jalen Williams, they probably beat the Spurs. Probably so.
Starting point is 00:58:26 And then I think the Thunder gave them way more fits than the young Spurs did. I just thought the Spurs through every fourth quarter just played like idiots. and that really helped the Knicks and their comebacks. Now, they did earn it, but the Spurs gave them plenty of leeway. It's funny, though, to say that afterwards, like, ah, clearly, but the Spurs were favored going in. You know, I mean, they were the betting favorite. But now on the- Going into the series. On the other side of it, everyone's just saying, oh, they're too young.
Starting point is 00:58:57 Right. They're too young. Yeah, but think about the games, though. That fits with what happened in the games, which is that they had more talent. possibly. We are better. We are dominating. We are winning most of the time, but we just don't know how to get it home. That's usually baked into the- So you're right in that sense. It might have been more fortuitous that they faced the Spurs. Absolutely. Than Oklahoma City. Right. For sure. Well, you don't think that the- But many said, that's the real championship is Oklahoma City versus the
Starting point is 00:59:28 Spurs. And then whoever wins that's going to win and then it didn't happen. So. Yeah, but I I don't know. But you're right. It got me thinking because everyone wants to say this was Katz Dirk run. And I think that is utter BS. Yeah, sure. To compare what Dirk had to go. Because Dirk had to take down Pau and Kobe and the young three in Oklahoma City and then
Starting point is 00:59:49 freaking LeBron. Like the Knicks didn't have that. Oh, damn, they took down this. But in retrospect, like if we look at this five or ten years from now and say, wow, they took down Wembe, four-time NBA champion Wemby. And that's what we did with. LeBron. But then it's going to be like, well, Wimby needed that.
Starting point is 01:00:09 Right. You know, it's all going to be about, it's not about the Knicks. It's about Wimby or what have you. Which, there's something to that. Had they just played decent basketball down stretches, they'd still be playing. Yeah, it's interesting. I'm looking at it here, and there's no way this is preseason. It says preseason.
Starting point is 01:00:28 The Knicks have the fourth best odds to win the title. I feel like the mavericks were considerably lower than that that year. I think so as well. Yeah. We had the defending champion Lakers. We had the up-and-coming Oklahoma City. I mean, just looking at who the... Right, who they beat.
Starting point is 01:00:49 Who the Mavs beat, yeah. The NBA Cup predicted this, right? They won the Cup? Yeah. They beat the Spurs. Oh. In the NBA Cup. So quit diminishing the NBA Cup.
Starting point is 01:01:06 My apologies. I was laughing at the... I didn't cut this off, so we're just going to play it from here. This is Ernie with James Dolan. And this is not a novel point I'm making, or that the guy I'm attributing it to made at the time. But Sam Monson from PFF, he's an English guy, and he'll always comment on how it's uniquely American
Starting point is 01:01:31 that we bring the owner up. That after a big win, here's Lamar Hunt first. There's a 5-5 guy in a suit with hair plugs before we get to the people who actually did, you know, just the way we do it. So here's Dolan up there first. You were saying, you know what? I think we should get to the finals and I think we should win the finals. And buddy, I'm talking teeth. Great fake teeth.
Starting point is 01:01:59 Oh, yeah? Yeah. Next level. How does he afford that? What did you see in this team in January that thought that you're going to be standing here on this night? I saw a team We were a team We've been a team the whole time
Starting point is 01:02:12 So fucked up F'd up And Does he feel like he's I mean You ready to run through a wall Already right We're a team
Starting point is 01:02:21 This fucking dweeb The Knicks The New York Knicks Just one Think of all the hoopers Who have dreamed Of being a part of this Throughout those burrows
Starting point is 01:02:31 And then they get this guy up here Isn't that right boys? We were a team We've been a team the whole time, but I want to say something to New York. Hey, New York. I'm sorry it took so long, but here we are, and hopefully it won't take that long again. That was my favorite part. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:53 Yeah. I just, okay. Yeah. Dork. Hooray. I felt very emotional watching this. I don't know why. Jalen Brunson just has that ability to make you, I don't know, like think about life.
Starting point is 01:03:14 Like, you can just feel the hours in the gym and his dad being a prick to him just radiating off of him. Like, this dude is the closest thing we have to, like, basketball whiplash. And he's just, you can't break him. That's how he was raised? It seems like it, dude. Yeah, I mean, there's videos. Yeah, it's circulated again this weekend. What was that?
Starting point is 01:03:37 Rick Brunson's making Jalen like hours in the heat outside. Shoot your free throws, run in transition, stop at the elbow, like just telling him. How old is he? Ten. Okay. How many? As many as I say. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:53 Okay. Well, that's interesting. Yeah, I would think if you had an NBA dad, they might be kind of absentee. He was overdoing it. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, I enjoyed, I don't like New York City, but I enjoyed all the different shots. and like in the West Village,
Starting point is 01:04:08 they just had a massive projector on a building and people were gathered watching. And I think that is what if and when the Cowboys win, that's what will be missing from their title. And an affiliation with the Epstein Island. Wait, what will we miss it? Well, just in New York City,
Starting point is 01:04:25 you just got these boroughs of just people gathered in the streets watching on the building. But now they have that IMP wall is just blank and blue. You can do anything you want with it. We can project it on there. And maybe they put it, yeah, maybe they do dress.
Starting point is 01:04:36 I don't know, But I thought that was just people mass gathered in streets. Yeah, I mean, if the Cowboys won the Super Bowl, they would not have the parade in Arlington. They would have it in Frisco. But they could make that cool. It doesn't matter. Wherever it is, it'll be the littest thing that's happened in a long time.
Starting point is 01:04:55 You guys won't see me for three days. You get that, Nick? Oh, you're going to go back? No. Oh, all right. No. I mean, I imagine probably, especially knowing Brandon, like, They'll probably send something out to, like, their top 20 or 25 fans to have them involved in the...
Starting point is 01:05:13 And you're claiming to be one of those. I don't think that's even... I mean, if I say one plus one is two, is that a claim? So this Knicks team, too, many are pointing to a Mavs loss. The loss to the Mavs as something that really jarred. them awake. There's a big loss in December. December or January?
Starting point is 01:05:40 This is like when a couple dies in a terrorist attack overseas and you have to find out that one of them was a teacher in Carrollton for a year or something. We just need to make this local somehow? What's our local angle? Well, my local angle is, though, it's kind of like the Mavs when they went to the finals a couple years ago. There was a point where kind of everything started to click.
Starting point is 01:06:03 And it was probably when, you know, Luca came off the injured list. and the trades happened. And there was just kind of a time where, oh, wow, this is actually one of the best teams in the NBA from this date. If you remember, that's how the Mavs were. And then they kind of just, then they ran up against the very talented, more experienced, you know, team in the finals. But that's kind of a way I tried to make that local.
Starting point is 01:06:31 Another big story is that there was a Wembe, be foul on Brunson that went uncalled that everybody agreed afterwards media-wise that that should have been called a flagrant the landing area yeah and in the NBA they certainly uh review those afterwards and then retroactively award the flagrant again this is all the media I've read or heard talk about this have said you know these are NBA media they're at all the games they do the pool reports with the refs. And they're like, they would have had to award him that flagrant, which would have been his, the flagrant that would have kicked in an automatic one-game suspension.
Starting point is 01:07:16 Yeah, his 10th. So could you imagine? No. What would have happened if they had, well, it would have been a big story no matter what. Either they didn't suspend him and he's playing in game six in New York or they did suspend him. and they're playing game six and it feels a little... It would feel a little empty, but you would have to say, I mean, these are the rules.
Starting point is 01:07:45 And if he didn't commit those flagrants, then that wouldn't. Because there are a couple, they say, throughout this series, they could have called a flagrant on him and they didn't, knowing that he's got, is it three flagrants in the playoffs or something? And then the fourth gets you something.
Starting point is 01:08:02 The point is that would have been a big storyline. That's not a storyline. anymore. I would say they wouldn't have done it, but they did suspend Dremont in 2016. Although he, didn't he get that call during the game? Did they retroactively? The doing it, you know, between games, it feels like they did do that between games. Your Dremont suspension. I don't think it is something that kicked in. Anyway, I, uh, we'll take that title though. I, yeah, fantastic. Hang it up in Willow Bend or Valley View or something.
Starting point is 01:08:36 If he didn't kick LeBron in the junk, he wouldn't have that. I thought you were going to say the local angle is like all of the Mavs, people that left during Nico's tenure seemed to go to the Knicks. Specifically Casey Smith. Yeah, and he took a couple people with him. They're a director of performance.
Starting point is 01:08:55 But I personally, even though Rick Brunson kind of seems like an asshole, I marvel at the fact that they have good father's son relationship. And I feel the same way when I see Lamello, Leangelo, and
Starting point is 01:09:16 who am I missing? La Fonda. Lonzo with Levar. Like, I don't know how you just... I mean, I'll tell you what happened where I grew up whenever there was an overbearing dad with an athlete kid. It turned out like it does a lot of times.
Starting point is 01:09:32 Their family was in shambles. In that case, he murdered the dead. You hear a lot of those stories. You hear a lot of stories where it doesn't work out. You hear a lot of Aaron Rogers stories. But you just don't hear too many stories where it's like that hardcore of like on your ass about everything. Like Tiger hated Earl at some point. Yeah, I don't know, though.
Starting point is 01:09:55 He would credit him. Credit him. And talk, you know, about him. And I miss my dad. And it's the first tournament I won without my dad. Maybe that's it. then. Maybe they're all, maybe at this extreme. I just, it's Stockholm.
Starting point is 01:10:10 Why can't you be hard on your kid and love them too? It's just weird because Jalen obviously, I mean, I can't imagine being an NBA player and being excited to go play for a team where your dad's on the bench. That just seems crazy to me, but they obviously have like a very cool bond. And he was like, you know, he was speechless after the game. That was interesting. Like that's the proper response. It's just standing there like, I can't believe that this is actually happening.
Starting point is 01:10:39 The guys in the hoop collective said it's the best free agent signing ever in the NBA, and it probably is. If you just weigh... It wasn't even Max, right? Right. You weigh... Full Max. All involved.
Starting point is 01:10:52 You know, it's not like when LeBron went to the heat. Obviously, he's a great player, but it's not, you know, but to identify Brunson. Yeah. And then he ended up taking less money once. they did start making these trades to keep his teammates happy. And that's a great world we live in, right? Where you can take $30 million a year, and you're like, benevolent.
Starting point is 01:11:17 Just the guy who he just cares about winning. He's only going to take $30 million. He left $100 off the table, though. I used to say that about Dirk too, because Dirk, like, took 20. He could have gotten 22 a year. You were right to say it. I think if college basketball would be,
Starting point is 01:11:34 is a bigger deal, would be a bigger deal, would be a bigger deal. The Villanova boys, I think, would be massive. Like, if the NFL did that. Right. Like, if you took everyone from the LSU team, which you kind of did Burrow and Chase, which was neat. Right, but if they had, like, three more guys on one team.
Starting point is 01:11:48 You just rebuilt a college team, and then they dominated or won a title. Let's do some other sports stuff. Is that cool? Do you have more NBA? We could do more NBA tomorrow. Other sports stuff is very cool, as long as it's cool for me to tell you about puddle pools.
Starting point is 01:12:08 Oh, wait, I think we have some new copy. Puddle pool. It was texted this morning. Here's my new copy. My pool looked incredible again. And I, you know, I honestly feel like my kids are trying to get my pool as dirty as they can every week. And yet, here we are. All right.
Starting point is 01:12:26 I love puddle pool. Yeah. Puddle pools is great. In fact, my wife texted them over the weekend because there was something wrong with. our, what is it, the pressure or something? I don't know. But then they came out Monday. Like, they'll just follow up and be like, oh, okay, we were there Friday, but we'll come out Monday.
Starting point is 01:12:43 Puddlepools gave us some new copy. Now, I don't know if this is World Cup related or if it's just sports related in general. But I'm going to give you the new Puddle Pools copy. Okay. This is brought to you by Puddle Pools. The team that's helping North Texas score big all summer long. So it's like team and then score. Okay.
Starting point is 01:13:06 With the World Cup taking over North Texas, everybody's chasing goals. But while the world's best soccer players are working on theirs, puddle pools is making sure your backyard wins the cup. Okay. No. Need weekly pool cleaning? That's their bread and butter.
Starting point is 01:13:24 Looking to remodel an outdated pool, they'll give it a total makeover worthy of a highlight reel. Dreaming of a brand-new custom pool, Puddle Pools can take you from kickoff to championship with a pool built specifically for your family. No. Now, kickoff would indicate start of a game, but then champion. I don't know. Whether it's keeping your water crystal clear.
Starting point is 01:13:47 No, that's not a soccer punt. Upgrading your backyard oasis or building the pool you've always won. A puddle pools has a full roster. That is. Of services ready to go. And right now, take advantage of their Father's Day special. When you sign up for recurring pool service, puddle pools will throw in a professional filter cleaning absolutely free. That's a $175 value.
Starting point is 01:14:12 Don't get caught sitting on the sidelines this summer. While the World Cup chases goals on the pitch, puddle is making your pool the MVP. I heard he gives it. Puddlepools If I said it then I'm in it Puddlepool Wow Wow
Starting point is 01:14:37 Right I meant to say dingy Putterpools.com slash Dumbzone This is Wow Wow Thanks Mike
Starting point is 01:14:50 Wow Of course there was soccer Greg And there was Fanfest action And I want to talk about that But first we got here as quick as we could yesterday
Starting point is 01:15:01 so we could settle in to watch the final of the RBC Canadian Open. It's a tune-up for the third major, the U.S. Open, which is this weekend at Shinnock the house that God built, as they call it. And Nancy was on the call, and there's a guy in golf named Bud Cawley.
Starting point is 01:15:27 Now, Bud Cawley, is not an alderman in Chicago in the 1950s. He is a professional golfer who seven, six years ago, was involved in a major car accident. Major car accident. And he's never won on tour. So back of 2018, five broken ribs, broken left leg, collapsed car crashes.
Starting point is 01:15:58 has happened in Dublin, Ohio. He didn't play for like two years. So he won yesterday. And Nance is going to come. So... He loves a story. Right out of the gate here, we've got an interview with Bud Collie,
Starting point is 01:16:16 his wife and his two kids are standing there. It's worth the way. It's that noise. Gross. It's that noise. It's the noise when he takes the mic back and goes,
Starting point is 01:16:31 All right It's been a long road But it's worth to wait It's just amazing To see this tearful joy That you get on the tour There's the latest standings now

Starting point is 01:17:02 I think your son just asked is at my turn. We might have a future announcer in our future. Do you want to say good job, Dad? I'm a shop, Dad. Back to you, Jim. That was tremendous. Good job, Cooper. Congratulations.
Starting point is 01:17:17 Save a seat for you. And that interview said it all, didn't it? I got asked recently. We had J.T. Posting. Dude, he's heating up, man. That's tremendous. So that's wonderful. A little kid said something.
Starting point is 01:17:34 Save you see. Back to you, Jeff. I got asked recently. We had J.T. Poston. He was crying after his win last week. See it here. The joy. The emotion.
Starting point is 01:17:49 Why is it? What's going on out there in golf? Somebody asked me, doesn't follow it all that closely. It's just a reflection how hard it is. How hard the journey has been to get here. That's really what it is. It really is. And you never know what it will spawn from here.
Starting point is 01:18:05 What, wait, what tournament are we talking about? Dude, it's the Canadian Open. The Canadian Open. The RBC. All right, all right. And you never know, right? Go ahead, yeah. Really is.
Starting point is 01:18:14 And you never know what it will spawn from here. You know, you get that first one. You know you can do it now at this level. It is, you hate to say it over and over again, but it is career changing. It's life changing. He just saw it right there today. Yeah, and now he's going to get that little.
Starting point is 01:18:31 All right. Enough, Trevor. How many? Okay, I'd like to hear the list from Nance of guys who didn't win for like 10 years on tour. And then all of a sudden, now you believe you can do it. And then they start winning. That's what happened to Tiger? Left him right.
Starting point is 01:18:44 No, actually. It's really good when he was like 12. All right. So this guy's name again is what, Dan? I forgot already. It's important. The golfer's name is Bud. Bud.
Starting point is 01:18:54 Bud, Bud Dwyer. Callie. Cooley. Cowley. Cowley. Cali. Frank Cowley. But Bud.
Starting point is 01:19:01 Bud. Bud. Okay. Here's how we ended the day. Wait, can we guess? This bud's for you. He's not that cool. This bud's, what do they call? What do they call like a nug, a tasty nug?
Starting point is 01:19:17 A bud, no. The pot. How would we indicate that's really good? Here he is, folks. The bud of the month. No. And there it is. A shot. It was a shot of a good. career.
Starting point is 01:19:31 Just warm it up. You know, but Cawley, you know something special to watch today. Folks, you know, sometimes it takes a while for a bud to reach full bloom. You saw it today. All right, right to CIA. And listen to how he gets up on the horse, where he goes, you know, folks, you know, but Cawley.
Starting point is 01:20:06 even something special to watch today folks you know sometimes it takes a while for a bud to reach full bloom I saw it today oh that's good that's really good that's really good so we heard about this last week
Starting point is 01:20:32 but there was a there's some fan fest activities happening out at what I call the Coca-Cola Starplex in Fair Park. I might go to one of these next week, or this week, I guess. You can watch the games out there.
Starting point is 01:20:48 They have a bunch of interactive stuff. You can see all the chance fans doing the, like they gather out there, right? See, my concern, you say, oh, it looks like there's a lot of cool stuff going on. Here's my concern as a veteran of being around cities that are hosting big sporting events. like I don't think the NFL experience
Starting point is 01:21:13 no and I love everything about the NFL and football that sucks like I at least like walking around seeing the logos of teams I like and gear and stuff but dude there's videos like the people are going to do it for you got 10,000 people in orange
Starting point is 01:21:30 like following the Netherlands bus down division or something I mean it's they're doing stuff I don't know how worth it the fan fest is, but I know that the other day they had some guy up there and he's letting you know how great it is to be here and he's going to introduce a guy we're very familiar with.
Starting point is 01:21:54 We hope you enjoy everything that Fair Park and the city of Dallas has to offer during your time here in our city. Now it is my distinct honor to introduce... Yes, he's wearing the hat. The 60th mayor of Dallas, Mayor Eric Johnson. Oh. Are we booing him? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:22 Got some booze. Dude, he gets booed for 30 straight seconds. And now his fellow stooges on the stage are given the, like, Peyton Manning and don't. Like, hey, settle, settle down. Well, that's not going to make me settle down. Wouldn't that make the general crowd do the opposite? And he's not exactly, you know, J.F.K or Ronald Reagan or something. You know, he doesn't command a room.
Starting point is 01:23:03 He's got a very, he's got an effeminate delivery. Today. Today. Hey. FIFA. FIFA. 2020-206. We love it.
Starting point is 01:23:17 Go soccer. I'm the mayor. We are proud to have the best fan festival anywhere in North America. Ever! People are still booing, dude. I think he's kind of, I think he's also getting invitations a little bit because he's trying to pause, but the feedback is jamming him up. And that never really stops.
Starting point is 01:23:46 So here's the end. Never for a better time to be in Dallas. Never. Never. We're ready, we're excited, and today we are proud to open the doors of the best FIFA fan festival in the world. Let the festivities begin. So dorky. Let the games begin.
Starting point is 01:24:24 I don't know what Al Michaels is talking about. That's way out of line. All right, we got to do the UFC thing, but I all right. also have to drain. Let's do it. The duns, a dunce. Hey, burn. Where at Burn?
Starting point is 01:24:41 Get that old TV antenna fix. Put this and here and that and there and that and this and here. The Channel 4 News is about to come on. Whatever it takes, wherever it breaks. Clarice Tensley, Steve Bosch, James Span, and Paul Crane have got it all, buddy. Clarice, Steve, James, and Paul, the Channel 4 News team. A great bunch of guys, know what to me? Farner!
Starting point is 01:25:05 You're listening to The Dumb Zone. Flooring Direct, DFW. So I want to talk about right now. It is new floor Cizzen. Summer is here. Home Improvement Cizzen is here. Upgrade. How about brand new floors from Flooring Direct?
Starting point is 01:25:41 They got their biggest offers ever right now. Effer? Biggest offers of it. That mother effort. You can get your whole project for less than $100 a month. They get that 36-month, 0% free financing. No money down. The exclusive five-star installation package.
Starting point is 01:26:04 What are each of the five stars, Blake? I knew you wouldn't know. No idea. I don't either. I just know that it's a... Proper planning prevents poor. I don't know. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:18 It's like Shottie's three C. Right? But they'll move your furniture for you. That's one star. Yeah. Well, how many pieces of furniture? It could be like a million stars. You're a free estimate.
Starting point is 01:26:33 Free estimate, free in-home visits. It's great. They'll bring all these samples to your house. You can lay them down there on the floor under your lighting. Dan just did this. Next to your walls. Yeah, it's fantastic. It's a great experience.
Starting point is 01:26:47 Can't wait to. Now, that they've been there and I walk around my house. These floors, so... Yeah, it really does. So I can't wait to get the new floors. Now, you know, it's based on the old ball and chain making that decision, which hopefully she's working out without me.
Starting point is 01:27:08 I doubt it. So I'll be back there. We'll have those floors in no time, though. Flooring direct, dfW.com slash dZ. Set up your free estimate. Flooring, direct, DFW.com slash DZ. How do we feel about playing a small clip,
Starting point is 01:27:25 Clayton, from Good Morning America? Do you think we'll immediately get killed? Just do it. The audio won't do it justice. So I'm just going to roll with that one in there, Clayton. And you guys watch this monitor. What we have here, don't, okay, I'll see it. It may not have uploaded yet, but I'll talk for a second.
Starting point is 01:27:43 So usually you get this, yeah, it's in there now. Usually you get this on college sports where the national champion has to go on the national morning talk show the next morning and they're hung over out of their minds. Usually the pros seem to kind of get it together. But the Knicks are back in New York. And they were on Good Morning America this morning. And is that one me? I don't think that was me. So I keep talking?
Starting point is 01:28:15 Why have we tried to fix it? Yeah, yeah, keep going. It's got, it looks like it's like Cat, J.B., McKell Bridges, and O.G. Ananobe. And O.G. Ananobe is sitting here in the front in this denim shirt. And when they throw it over to him, like with George Stephanopoulos is trying to do it. Mike Brown said that it was great to get you involved. When they go to O.G, he is so out of his mind that he can't answer.
Starting point is 01:28:40 Coach Brown made and how he brought you all together. I just answered. He's been great. He's been great. Mike's been great. And what he's been awesome of doing this, too, is listening to us and just hearing us out. Full screen saver, bro.
Starting point is 01:29:01 Full screen saver. He never, he never moved. We ended up turning his head later. Jalen looks over at him and goes, I guess I'll take that one. And then somebody else starts talking. He just freezes, dude.
Starting point is 01:29:12 What was the dumb question, too? Mike Brown put this team together. Yeah, we've set the Mike Brown Hornet's Nest. No, I'm saying Mike Brown. Brown did not assemble this roster. He is the coach. Tom Tibido sucked, and they got a different coach, and Mike Brown deserves a lot of credit.
Starting point is 01:29:28 We're going to focus on the fact. Okay, I didn't feel like that's what he was saying, but you're right. I don't even know what the question, but OG, he just, he hasn't slept yet. He's clearly probably, let's get a couple edibles in me to get through this. And he is just on live TV, not doing well. Very, very funny.
Starting point is 01:29:47 And then I wanted to show you real quick the Broken Bow Park this morning. So maybe I can entice you guys to go with us and we can have a little group, little group hike, a little swim. Do you guys know that this is right here? Like, I'm not saying it's Hawaii, but... You're like the... What we have on screen is a pretty spare little creek. It's not a creek?
Starting point is 01:30:08 This is beautiful. Look at these rocks and green trees. Oh, God. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Look in the back there, Blake. Wait. Put that up again. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 01:30:18 Like, wait, I swear I saw Bigfoot. Oh. I think I see the big foot in there. Yep. Look how big his foot is. What are we supposed to do? Like, just look at it. You know what? Die.
Starting point is 01:30:29 That's what you're supposed to do. Just die. Well, there's not enough water to even drown. It's that underwhelming. Can't even drown from it. I thought it was kind of welcoming. Thank you. Just be whelmed.
Starting point is 01:30:44 I want to tease something maybe for tomorrow. Or let's check in a couple things. Yeah. Have you figured out if you're... Are we going to do this? Did we postpone? Where's Matt? The chat thinks we should postpone.
Starting point is 01:30:56 The chat's probably not premium subscribers, though. The chat, if we were like, what if we postponed today's show by 15 minutes? No! Don't do that. Right. Is Matt Grim here? All the boys are gone? They're up there.
Starting point is 01:31:14 Okay. I think they're napping. Okay. Well, I'm going to need... I need Travis down here for... for today in history. So that will be coming up in a little bit. My other thing is, I think we should tease to tomorrow,
Starting point is 01:31:29 just because we've had a lot, we have a lot more still today, and it would be a nice little subscriber treat, I think. Tomorrow is kind of the subscriber-only show. How about Jake versus Chuck Cooperstein on Twitter? Tomorrow. Like we totally break it down, get inside. like we interview this man, Jake Kemp.
Starting point is 01:31:51 What is, what's behind his motivations? I really don't want you to oversell this, but in anticipation. Where did you grow the nads to do something like that? In anticipation for this, I just fired off a tweet to him in the break. Oh, yeah. Because I thought we might address it coming out, so I'll make sure to do that. Are you going, are we going to Ripkin this thing? Can you get more days of this than you've had of,
Starting point is 01:32:19 eating pizza in a row. What I'm here to tell you right now is that barring something out of my control, and I realize that me tweeting something that they find offensive enough to ban me, is technically within my control. But as long as I have a Twitter account, from this day, June 15th, until the end of days, I will keep this thread with Chuck Eberstein going. Every day? I will never, ever, ever end it.
Starting point is 01:32:48 And I don't care. Man, that is such hyperbole. Because he'll keep going. And I honestly feel that if I reply, he'll reply. You can break him. And even if people tell him what I'm doing, he'll be, I don't care. He's wrong. But he's wrong.
Starting point is 01:33:06 Matt Graham, what if we postpone? Oh, we got a mic for MacGron. Got a mic. The question is, do we postpone this evening's QBR? And it's only a question from Dan. I'm ready to do it. Oh, okay, then I'll do it. I thought you're the guy who wanted to go people,
Starting point is 01:33:24 and I got, look at water. You're going to get, uh, I want to get, uh, I need to get mosquito bites at 7 a.m. And not at, uh, 4 p at like, we got time. I think we have time to bowl in between meeting and QBR. So you want to get off, or end the show, I should say,
Starting point is 01:33:42 then get off, then go bowling, then come back, do the QBR. Mm-hmm. And then, Or we could, I mean, if you, I just, just kind of experiment banging each other because we're out in the woods and nobody who care. Swimming is happening tomorrow morning.
Starting point is 01:33:57 Swimming. That'll be a sunrise service down at the crook. It's magical out there, bro. It's got to be dirtier than, what? You're probably going to get a parasite in your anews. Brain-eating amoeba. What if you get a brain-eating amoeba and that screws the show? We can go ahead and postpone.
Starting point is 01:34:17 In the interest of Blake and Clayton, and having fun this evening. We do like that. It's easy for me to say from up here in my ivory tower. The timeline shortens considerably between when they're done and the QBR.
Starting point is 01:34:31 So that's fine. Rather than when the show is done. They have some post... This is true. Right. Just ask them. Yeah. You've never asked. Not like we have meetings or anything.
Starting point is 01:34:43 No, no, nobody else does anywhere except like... Anyway, tomorrow the story of, okay, so we're not doing the, yeah, I mean, I'm just telling you, I'm going to keep, quarterly business review. I'll just do it. I'll meet with everybody. You know, watch him bail on bowling. Yeah, now you got a bowl. There's a nice, great spot. I don't want to bowl like late night.
Starting point is 01:35:10 Nobody thinks you're doing anything. I figured we'd bowl and then get your dinner on the way home because you like to eat early. So 4 p.m. bowling. Yeah, sure. All right. We have a projector. We're going to put the ranges. We all have a separate cars, too.
Starting point is 01:35:23 We can just take 10 cars to the alley. I think we should. Yeah. I think we should. So we're moving the thing. All right. We're moving the thing. And we're also postponing to tomorrow.
Starting point is 01:35:36 Jake versus Coop. Maybe you guys can book him. You'd be into that, wouldn't you? Of course. Yeah. We welcome Chuck Cooperstein. The odds that he's ever heard one second of this podcast free, or let's just say free, there's no way he fired off a...
Starting point is 01:35:57 You mean like not from a social media clip? Yeah. Zero. Yeah. But that applies to most podcasts. He's not, I don't think that's a big part of his media consumption. Part of our media consumption yesterday was, uh, was mixed martial arts at the White House, which was fucking awesome.
Starting point is 01:36:19 and insane. There's a fine line between awesome and full idiocracy. What is that even, I mean, I know obviously when you see dirt bikes doing backflips in front of the, like it's hard not to think about that movie, but whatever. I mean, everything already is what it is. Who can't, if they're doing it there, is it any different? Let's not act like. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:42 I'm still on Facebook and I saw one of my friends cancel his Paramount Plus subscription because of the dirt bikes on the White House lawn. That's so good. I thought you were joke. There were dirt bikes? I didn't see the dirt bikes. Oh, they were doing jumps. Oh, on Saturday, dude, it was a full, it looked like a... I don't even know what you're saying.
Starting point is 01:36:59 Motocross. Like, doing jumps and wheelies, and it was fucking insane, man. But when it came down to it last night, I don't know. I mean, we're just watching that and we're like, yeah, this is where Abe Lincoln had walked through with his, you know... Secretary of State and the whatever. And then so, also here's this guy in flip-flops, meathead. Terrible tattoos. Yeah, ready to walk through the same hollowed grounds.
Starting point is 01:37:33 Okay, so obviously it's just, it's F Trump for me all day, every day. Odd. But if you're going to be. But think of this, though. And I'm not saying that we are like necessarily pining to wind back the clock. But there was a time. time, right? And these are cultures
Starting point is 01:37:51 that we aspired to build ourselves after where the greatest like warrior, I mean, it's not that different from what we do with football.
Starting point is 01:38:00 We've got a fucking F-15 flying over, you know, and the flag, the football that's part of what I'm saying, though, is if this was a,
Starting point is 01:38:11 an NFL game, I think we would think differently. It's because it's such a low brow, like on the lower tier of what we think of as sport in the United States. Like this is the knuckle-grabbing, you know, meat sport, meathead sport. And that's what accentuates it.
Starting point is 01:38:30 If it was a... At the end of the day, though, what if it was fencing? There are more people... Or shouldn't it be a World Cup? What if it was the World Cup final? It shouldn't. Because the... And you know why.
Starting point is 01:38:41 There are more people who are like, F, yeah, when they see those guys walking out and beating each other up than if it were like, golf. But like you said, this is more... Just design the grounds around the White House to be an actual 18-hole... I do love that.
Starting point is 01:38:58 Championship course. I really do love that. Trump owner of golf courses could have got that done. You could have DoorDash Grandma as a cart girl at the turn. I mean, I know I'm supposed to be bothered by it, and I'm not trying to make this into like a WHL thing, but it just feels like a lot of the people that sometimes probably... vote like I do are like way more bothered by this than they are like how hard it is to get
Starting point is 01:39:23 welfare and I'm like I don't give a fuck what they do there right that's that's probably the message of I mean at the end of the day I'm like of the whole uh party right the whole the core the decorum I'm like the whole left we do decorum after we do like right because the whole left was like hey stop saying these words before we actually do some good things for you financially right so yeah you're right. Now, fighting in general, UFC, I don't know, I had a stage where I would watch it with my friends. I'm not that fired up about it. But it did get us to talking about fight and combat sports in general.
Starting point is 01:40:01 Well, that first fight would look pretty gay, remember? Well, it started because... They were laying on each other the whole time. We'd asked Dan, what would it have to be for Dan to be interested in it? Right, because we'd already seen two hard-dee warriors grinding against each other. Well, being on the White House lawn does make me interested in it. Yeah, but I guess it was the fight in general. Like, I would keep you locked in.
Starting point is 01:40:22 And now that I'm thinking about it, Jake Paul versus Mike Tyson should have been at the White House. That's true. My God. Really do it upright. That turns me into Nance. Yeah. How about that?
Starting point is 01:40:34 Oh, no. There they are. A YouTube streamer. Could you imagine if they brought Mike Tyson out there? And make Nance announce it? Yeah, but, uh, But it was so funny to watch the the montages of,
Starting point is 01:40:52 so they'd show like the soldiers putting up the flag, wherever that is, right? Like Iwojima. Iwojima. They would have like recreations of the Potomac. Right. You're looking at Pearl Harbor. You're seeing an AI.
Starting point is 01:41:06 And then here comes the boom. Here comes ready you're not. And that's where Blake was predicting it. If you go to our YouTube thing last night, it was like at 8.45 p.m. Blake's like, they're going to end with UFC. They're going to end with, but there's no way they were going to end with UFC, because there was nothing in there about sports. It was all American history.
Starting point is 01:41:29 It was great moments, but God damn it, if they didn't end with the UFC, some guy punching somebody else right in the face. And that was in the first montage they would come up with on the night because we needed lots of them. We had a weather delay. Apparently in these fights, there's a ton of time between the fights. And we got more montage.
Starting point is 01:41:51 And if you've ever watched a pay-per-view fight or a UFC thing, you might not be used to. Commercials. Yeah. Which felt really weird. And now, they would only do one, like, what was the one fighter?
Starting point is 01:42:08 Oh, the guy, the controversial guy. Josh Hokit Who beat the big giant black guy What's that guy's name? Derek Lewis Yeah Okay Boy, we all had him too
Starting point is 01:42:21 Yeah He punches himself out real early David Ruff pointed out That yeah He doesn't really care about conditioning But if he can get you early You're good But otherwise
Starting point is 01:42:30 Like he got tired real quick I thought they were going to break his arm Yeah That dude was going to break his arm That was a thing I didn't want to watch but wait why did I start talking about that I could just transfer right into Josh Hokkaid if you want because I got his audio from his post his win he had a big win and it is a controversial speech at the end here is Joe Rogan out there interview on the fighters
Starting point is 01:43:04 congratulations sir I'm here with the winner Josh Hokit Josh once again you prove the doubters wrong, moved to 10 and 0. Everybody proves doubters wrong, though. Every second, right? Every time somebody wins anything. He's never been defeated yet. Doubters. And knocked out one of the biggest knockout artists in the history of the sport. I'm the man with the plan, the beast that's ready to feast.
Starting point is 01:43:33 You know what? Fuck the speech. Hey, shout at the Trump for having the balls to put some shit like this on. And if I'm going to say anything, there's only one person more incredible than the incredible Hulk. And that's my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Now listen. By the way, I've come to learn. Maybe everybody knows.
Starting point is 01:44:01 He is the incredible Hulk. Josh Hokit. All right. He is the incredible Hulk. I thought he was, of course, talking about the Hulk when I first saw it. but yes he uh and it says here he is uh he was invited or wait uh let's see no no he beat derrick lewis who is trump's favorite fighter i've heard trump say that about a hundred guys but okay okay well he also is the guy that the night before
Starting point is 01:44:34 staggered around and vomited on himself and someone asked him about he said whatever, maybe I was drinking last night. Yeah, okay, those are the things I think you need to know about the incredible Hoke. And then we'll continue here. Now listen, Alex Pereira, I want a shama on your mama. And lastly, Michelle Obama is a man. Am I right? Ladies and gentlemen, Josh Hulkin.
Starting point is 01:45:18 Okay, Rogan, thanks. Ladies and gentlemen. Now, it did seem like the Shama Mama could have gone with Obama in some way if we were to reevaluate that. But, yeah, that is a controversial thing. Now, is it his pitch, though? Is this his backdoor slider? Because in January, at the end of his victory, speech, he said, P.S. Brittany
Starting point is 01:45:48 Griner is a man. So, like, does he have another, like, what are we doing here? What's next? Yeah. Or does he have, this is the level of his, you know. But, you know, he does shape it for wherever he is. I'm not. You know, you got to do Cleveland
Starting point is 01:46:06 jokes from you're in Cleveland or Pittsburgh, yeah. Well, never mind. What? What don't you know? It was funny, just watching I mean, watching Trump walk in with Dana White. And you do just try to, I mean, play the game. Replace him with any other president.
Starting point is 01:46:29 And you just can't picture it, right? Biden crashing a bike, trying to ride it down there? No, of course not. No, Biden would have been in the wheelchair next to the guy. Because that's something they would do. They would bring a war veteran or something to walk down the red carpet or be pushed. down the red carpet with, you know, one of the Latin UFC fighters or something.
Starting point is 01:46:54 And it was just a weird, they'd fist bump. And this guy who, you know, stormed the beach at Normandy was saying, you know, good luck to, just very odd. Just very odd. A guy with pink cordroes. I think Hokic was the best because he's come, apparently he's got a macho man, Randy Savage bit going on. He's got the American flag bandana, the big glasses.
Starting point is 01:47:16 and then the Medal of Honor recipient was in a wheelchair. And so Hokka's coming out doing his bit, and then he sees the guy in the wheelchair and he gives him a fist bump. Like, hey, bro, what's up? Who is the colored hair guy, colored tattoos? Okay. He was pretty wild. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:47:35 And a big Trump guy. And Trump, a big fan of his. I feel, yeah, I feel like the UFC, we got to stop saying a big Trump guy, right? That seems. Yeah, that's right true. Another controversy is that it was on Paramount Plus. It wasn't on big CBS. I was shocked by that.
Starting point is 01:47:55 I've never seen MMA on regular TV, so I guess I didn't know. I know, but I've also never seen MMA on the White House lawn. Yeah. Yeah. So you would think maybe this would rate, but also it's for politicians and Trump in particular, too, will complain if there's like an NFL playoff game that's not on free TV. And I just learned that sometimes people say something, but then they don't, you know,
Starting point is 01:48:25 not fully consistent. Attribute that rule to themselves later. Tricky. I just learned that. Tricky. About hypocrisy. Well, we were talking last night about what it would take for Dan to be into it. And I was thinking about it on the drive down.
Starting point is 01:48:40 because I always liked I liked getting in fights when I was younger and I really liked it if there were like multiple people involved on both sides that was just a way more fun
Starting point is 01:48:53 you know you don't want to jump somebody but like a game like two groups of guys fighting like boy this is great and I think it just and I'm also not an individual sports guy
Starting point is 01:49:03 I just don't like I don't like one on one and I don't like one versus the field it just it does it does nothing for me That doesn't represent the human condition in any way to me. So I think the easy solution to combat sports is you've got to get more people involved.
Starting point is 01:49:24 So at a basic level, two on two. Or last night we had Dan and Jake versus Sean O'Malley. Yeah. I said the whole room, including Travis and Matt and Wirewil. That would be unfair. I think it's still unfair to us. You think Sean O'Malley? You think just Dan and, like, if it's going to be two people, I don't even want in it.
Starting point is 01:49:46 I know. Because I'll run the other way and then Jake will just get his ass kicked. Although Jake might believe he could bear hug him and beat Sean O'Malley. Well, he sees... Not by myself. He sees he's got 60 pounds on Sean O'Malley. Boy, your knee is big, dude. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:50:00 I just noticed it. We're talking yesterday about how Jake couldn't complete this fight because of his knee injury. Do you need surgery? Probably. Are you going to get it? Yeah. Oh. At the end of the year, I got a first pitch to throw out.
Starting point is 01:50:16 Can we watch it? Can you watch surgery? Yeah. I don't see why not. They let us in the room? I doubt it. I don't see why not. With your mother-in-law?
Starting point is 01:50:25 Yeah. Cut the cord. So I have a couple of videos, right? So the first one, let's do the, in Russia, they've got leagues where they just fight five on five. Okay? So just tell me how much more. exciting this is because what you're going to see here is that when a guy gets knocked out he's now free you know it's like setting a pick like this guy's now he can spring some other action and so
Starting point is 01:50:52 so five on five if one guy do they oh they have five refs uh I know there's multiple refs I don't know that there's five but because one guy can just tap or something you can tap yes um and I just think there's a lot it just now it's five on four if one guy's out that's the yeah that's the It gives you more to look at and more to just kind of keep your eye. Now it's a power play. So if these two guys are on the ground over here doing gay stuff, it's getting boring. But these other two guys are fighting. I'd like to know the stats on it would seem,
Starting point is 01:51:24 it's like scoring the first run in a game. How many times do you win? You actually win. Look at this guy about to get just absolutely three on one in the corner because his buddy got talked. That's awesome. But if you knock out one, I would think your chances are way better. Yeah. Yeah, they've got to go ahead and win.
Starting point is 01:51:41 Handicapping rules, I'm sure. But what are the, yeah, what are the stats on? This is one version. All right. And then the other one that Travis sent me, sent me a short clip last night. I wouldn't found there's a ton of these fights online. This is a guy who is the world's strongest man. He's a cage fighter.
Starting point is 01:52:01 And he is fighting two little people who are also cage fighters. And I think they're brothers. They're not little, as in they're smaller. They're midgets. are? Yeah. I think, yeah. To me, they look.
Starting point is 01:52:13 I need to see them next to, because they don't look that much smaller than that ref, do they? They're pretty small, man. Blake, you saw the video up closer. No, they don't have the... As you can see, they're trying to kind of close in on them, and it starts to resemble, like, Discovery Channel very quickly. Yeah, but...
Starting point is 01:52:31 This big, like, moose. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're, like, stalking him a little bit. Wait, what does it say? The world? Fight Freak League. The World Freak Fight League. World Freak Fight League.
Starting point is 01:52:45 Let's see what else they got. But yeah, so I just, I think in general... Okay, that's pretty awesome. We need to do more. It ends with... Yes, here we go. Power bomb. Whaling on the guy.
Starting point is 01:52:59 It ends quickly. You can kind of throw one of them into the other one. Bang their heads together, three stoogs. What I do to my four-year-old? Boom. Oh. Yeah. That's a tough.
Starting point is 01:53:12 Oh. One more thing. And then they make him go one-on-one with the other guy. Well, I mean, that other guy bought his tickets, you know? I guess. And then he just, yeah. He just chases him down. He's like, come on, Ruff-bub-bub-bub-bub-bub-bub.
Starting point is 01:53:26 He's like, come on, Raff, what are we doing? One more subject from last night that was somewhat controversial, but it needs examining. And this was brought to us by Jake. Should the flute player in the military band get to board the plane before you do? Should the clarinet player get to park closer at Lowe's? Because they really ripped that scale. They are veterans. For any veterans, anyone who is served, please stand up.
Starting point is 01:54:02 They did basic. That's what I'm saying. Did they go through boot camp? They went to basic, yes. So they did some exercising? Then probably it's really hard exercising, I would imagine. Because no one but that clarinet player could have gotten through that. What did you get in?
Starting point is 01:54:17 Oh, infantry. Oh, yeah, what was your deal? Oh, I was a logistics officer. What about you? It was a soprano. Pace flute. I sang in the choir. Boy, boy, I swear, you, you, those boys would hear me coming.
Starting point is 01:54:37 They do, do, do, do, do. They do. What about the guy in the revolution? Or hitting the drum as he's in the front of the... Blake brought that up. And, like, that does seem cool. Like, and I'm sure that there's still some use for that. Probably a couple of those drummers got shot along the way, right?
Starting point is 01:54:54 Yeah, for sure. For sure. Guy in the woods, like, oh, no. That felt like an integral part of military strategy. I mean, yeah, we didn't have DMX to listen to. Yeah, that's right. That's what that was? I think it kind of was a...
Starting point is 01:55:07 That was a charge. That was the pill? What? The... Having a military base. man. Yeah, 100%. Yeah, now those guys again, yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 01:55:16 Back then they were chewing on roots and listening to their drummer. Now you just have like rip fuel and system of a town and the Hummer. But that, to me, there's a value in that. These people are just playing military concerts at the park. Like, this is no different than... This was their Super Bowl. Basically. Basically.
Starting point is 01:55:37 But no, yeah, I don't think they should get Group 1. Not like bad or something So you think there should be a class system Within the military too Because they'll be like any group Or like grade A military They do it to each other Right
Starting point is 01:55:53 Let them write the code Yeah but they're saying that all of us We're better than all civilians Even the flute player They would And you're against that I just don't want them to get to be treated Like Navy Seals
Starting point is 01:56:06 Yeah They can be above me Right should Joe Kemp be treated the same He should get on the airplane first. What about after families board? That's fine. Why are they getting in first?
Starting point is 01:56:23 They're slowing the whole process down. They really do, yeah. I'll get in there real quick. It's like letting me in traffic quick. Then I'm gone. You let me in. I'm not going to be then now sitting in front of you. We need to board from window to aisle.
Starting point is 01:56:37 I have a couple of world cup notes. Not who makes the most money to the lease money. Which are basically just fighting Dan's. false narratives. I don't have an exact number for you, but this is like being viewed as the World Cup of the diaspora. The Americans are far from the only ones who have players who were not born in or did not grow up in their country.
Starting point is 01:57:04 Oh, of course. I mean, that's the whole Olympics. It's everything. Morocco, yesterday, I think, yesterday or Saturday, for the first time ever, fielded a starting 11 in the World Cup with no Moroccan-born players. It never happened before. And so this is a part of soccer culture
Starting point is 01:57:23 that I didn't know anything about, but apparently it is something that came up yesterday, again yesterday or Saturday, but somebody scored a goal for Sweden in their match against Tunisia. And this dude, I think, was born in Tunisia, but he's Swedish. He scored.
Starting point is 01:57:42 for Sweden. And he might have actually been born in Sweden and his dad's is Tunisian. But after he scored, he didn't go like apeshit. He had like a kind of a muted like chill celebration. And apparently this is something that happens in club soccer where guys get promoted or they get, you know, picked off by a better team and they have to go play their old team that helped them and supported them and sold them up to. a better team and when they beat them they don't like like it's like a show of respect thing of like
Starting point is 01:58:19 yeah I get it like we're better than you or I took a better opportunity but this is like I know you're mostly just kidding or whatever but it is I thought honestly that it was just America or countries that had no soccer culture that did this but apparently every country is trying to steal as many players as they can that could legally play for like the kid that went off for america the other night went off again blake he was around the ball a lot uh he could have played for not just america not just england where he grew up but nigeria where his parents are from he has citizenship so a bunch of them have three to choose from and then the other thing is we talked about the expansion of the field uh from 32 to 48 that's when i really stopped watching
Starting point is 01:59:10 Cheapened it. Yep. To corporate. Because now it's just about TV money. But what they did was they did add a knockout round phase. I'm just interested in like tournament construction, like how they did it. So what they did, you have to win, I guess, seven games instead of six now or eight instead of seven. Like they still kept it as group playing four.
Starting point is 01:59:34 And they just added another layer or round to the tournament. Okay. So easier to get into, but kind of harder to win. Like it's almost like it's more forgiving in the group stage, but less forgiving, obviously, later because you added more games. Speaking of two corporate, if you said a moment ago, we would never. That's a note.
Starting point is 01:59:58 Well, no, no, I'm not about to do a spot, but I will if you want me to. It really did bother me. I don't think I ever followed up on it. I started with Jalen Brunson. It bothers me. And I said, you know what, let's talk about positive. positivity first. Remember that? Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 02:00:12 Remember that part of our show? It bothered me that Jalen Brunson was wearing the goggles and that they were sponsored by Mikhail O'Waltrow. It just bought the modern-day sports celebration sucks. Can we admit it? Like the richer these guys are, now they can't have a drop of anything on them or anything they own. We cover up the lockers.
Starting point is 02:00:39 like it looks like Y2K my wife was really worried about Y2K we covered our whole house but it's it's horrible is no one going to jump on in hip hip hooray me here you guys are all like
Starting point is 02:00:53 am I an old man yelling at a cloud it sucks it looks gay you're a pussy are we celebrating or are we like hold on I'll celebrate after I get ready let me get prepared to celebrate
Starting point is 02:01:06 let me uh oh hey let me put my phone away. Let me get everything dry. Are you celebrating? Are we celebrating? It's a little bit it takes a piss out of it. It's sex after being married for 15 years with two kids. That's what's happening now. You got to get the towel. Hold on. Let me go get the door. Oh, I'll do this. It should be the wildest thing you've ever done. Yeah, let's just go. Let's go at it. This is animal. This is the most amazing thing. It's the euphoria that this is a spur of the moment type thing. I I just won them.
Starting point is 02:01:40 Let's go crate. Whoa, whoa, wait, get the towel. Get it. I mean, it ruins it all. I mean, you're still going to celebrate. You're still going to have sex after 15, you know, but it's just not the same. But if you don't have the towel, then it's awkward. I mean, there are reasons why they do it.
Starting point is 02:01:55 But you're right, it all started, like, they do it because that's just the way we do things. If it was their third championship, all right. The first, yeah. You know? But every, and, like, baseball will end up doing this every round of a, oh, I'm now going to put on the goggles again. Yeah. Like I've worn these are my lucky goggles.
Starting point is 02:02:13 I've had these for four rounds here in this playoffs. Let's do ginger ale because Josh Hamilton's in here. Well, what should they do? I don't say that in front of Jake. Let me ask you. You couldn't be in a, or could you? You couldn't, you wouldn't want to, like, I always thought that was kind of cool for,
Starting point is 02:02:34 like the teammates would do that for Josh Hamilton. I think Jake would get really upset with us if we did that. I mean, you just figure it out. Just keep your mouth close. Right? Yeah, but Blake could be over there. Come on, dude. If some Bud Light got on your tongue,
Starting point is 02:02:49 I don't think you're rushing to the bar. No, I remember, though, well, no, you're not, but you're supposed to like, yeah. Because you pinky promised? Yeah, I have a card. No, I remember when Matt Grimm and I went to go see ICP two references in one show, that made, I mean, the cola is just the way, right?

Starting point is 02:04:31 All right. This is probably on my Dan as to Hitler list. A woman in Minnesota was rescued after she became trapped in Quillard. quick sand for several days. Dude, I saw this.
Starting point is 02:04:48 Yeah. She's like old, like 60 something, right? She is old. Yeah, 68 years old. She was stuck on it, like, for days. Yeah. She fell into like a puddle. A mud pit on an ATV.
Starting point is 02:05:05 And then some people came by and they thought they saw something and they said she was totally covered except for like the mouth and nose. No way. And they saw this little, help me, help me. It looked like a little fish. No. With a human nose saying help me. Not quite, but, I mean, she was stuck.
Starting point is 02:05:25 Now, would you? And they did say that you could see, like, her face. And they dropped like a little, first they dropped a couple little pieces of food in there to see if she would eat. They thought she was dead. And she'll hear, help me. Help me. And then they did what Walter White did. They just turned her over.
Starting point is 02:05:47 Oh, my God. I forgot about that. Was that chick's name? She's very attractive. But rescued. Quicksand. Jane. Jane.
Starting point is 02:06:02 This doesn't really count as an ATV scare, but I'm grouping it in. The 68-year-old was on an ATV? Yeah. No. Yes. Yes. That's how she got there. I thought it said she...
Starting point is 02:06:14 Oh. Her and two friends. Why she had... Friends. Where'd the friends go? Oh, they were trying to get rid of her. Yeah. I think she got, obviously got turned around, and then, you know, she was submerged.
Starting point is 02:06:30 I think I would go look for my friend. Turned around. Oh, are you stuck in that dryer? Oh, there's a mouth. Just hanging out of the ground. You guys are terrible. This is a sad story about a wonderful woman. James Hardin arrested over the weekend in Houston.
Starting point is 02:06:50 And the overworked Twitter jokes of the week ensued. I got one. Yeah, what do you got? The Cavs asking to work on his shooting in the offseason. Oh, man. Because see, he was arrested with a misdemeanor charge of carrying a weapon, and I've never seen Hardin good whistle for a carry. It's the first time Hardin's been a weapon in June in his career.
Starting point is 02:07:17 So, yeah, he got arrested. But you know what? I actually heard it reported this way and was proud. It said it was almost like a stat, you know, And it was, I think it might have been in a ticker on the fan sports update. It was like, this is the first arrest of Harden's 17-year career. Like, it's like going eight scoreless with two, like a walker. Yeah, it's just, this is just an anomaly.
Starting point is 02:07:40 Pretty good. Can I go back to the last story? I thought you got everything wrong. She drove a van there. It says all-terrain vehicle in the story. It definitely does. These two people that were riding in all-terrain vehicle saw this van
Starting point is 02:07:57 and they were wondering how did this van get out here? They weren't her friends, they were friends. So it's not like this lady had her friends with an all-terrain vehicle and then they left a 68-year-old lying in the mud
Starting point is 02:08:11 and didn't tell anyone. So these two friends who were on ATVs were riding around they saw a van, they're like, how'd this van get out here? Let's go see. Help me. Right near the van.
Starting point is 02:08:22 Yes, there's a help me squealing from this mud puddle. and they're like, oh, look, under the mud puddle, there's a 68-year-old lady. And then they... They pulled her out of there. Then they used the hole. That's right.
Starting point is 02:08:35 Then they used the hole. And they were like, oh, man, this will be a great video. And it's like a different twist on the whole glory hole thing. Okay, I got a video from Fox 4. This one's going to have to be video. We knew that this was going to be a thing. The local news is actually. trying to find people who don't speak English so well,
Starting point is 02:08:59 who are here to support their teams in the World Cup. And yesterday, our good friend Mike Soroy was there for Japan, Netherlands. He was telling us about it. They clean up the stadium afterward. You might have seen James Winston was there with them as he's just snoop dog now. We'll put him on anything and it'll be good. I have noticed that. You're right.
Starting point is 02:09:23 That's just what we are. That's what it is now. We're about to get over Jamest, right? And I'm sure some people probably would say we already are. But I'm not mad at it. He seems like a much better place in his life than he was when he was a younger man. So this one reporter from Fox 4 is out there yesterday in Arlington. And it's...
Starting point is 02:09:42 It evokes the thoughts of the Rangers parade because like Blake said, when the Knicks win and somebody takes a mic out onto Fifth Avenue or down on like 33rd and people are just crowding the reporter, right? they have to fight them off of them. In this case, this reporter is out in Arlington. It looks like she's just kind of at a pavilion at a park and like one Japanese guy kind of wonders up on her. You know, it's not mayhem.
Starting point is 02:10:09 But it is still a pretty good local news hit. I thought you guys would enjoy. That's my bad. My bad. It's live? It's live? Yeah, yeah, yeah. How excited are you?
Starting point is 02:10:24 You are so excited, right? Japan, right? Excuse me. Okay. I cannot speak English, but I'm excited. Yep, hell yeah. Japan, baby. Look, that's lit.

Starting point is 02:14:33 Jake's going to catch one in that swimming pool. He's going to go in tomorrow. Listen, I didn't take a picture of this. I didn't send it to Clayton, but Travis noted this morning, those trees out where we were hiking this morning had clearly been clawed by bear. For real? Yeah.
Starting point is 02:14:53 There are. So yeah, the second most common silhouette or sign to the Sasquatch would be the bear. Yeah. I'm looking at two, three, four. Yeah, there's just bears. The bear motif. Stoked on bears.
Starting point is 02:15:10 Is big here. Log cabins and bears. I mean, the trees, they'd clearly, so smaller, I think, like, black bears, littleer. I'm not familiar with the size of different bears. Black bears are small? Like a Tariq-Cohen-sized bear? More Rome-a-Dunes-A. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:15:32 A smaller bear. Don't fist bump, the two of you. You guys know that you. I want to see that. Jealousy. I know. I was like, oh, I didn't have the good line today. I didn't have the good line today.
Starting point is 02:15:44 I guess I know. know what's going to be on the Instagram later. So I watch those guys. Better luck tomorrow. So there was a popular restaurant in Houston called the Turkey Legg Hut. I've never been, but in talking to a couple of other folks from the state, this is a thing. Orty. Maybe a...
Starting point is 02:16:03 I like it that it's just different. Yeah. I like something different. So the former co-owner, a guy named Lynn Price, he pled guilty last week. and now faces five to 20 in federal prison. He pled guilty to arson charges. For burning down his own thing for insurance? He orchestrated the firebombing of a rival restaurant.
Starting point is 02:16:29 Oh, whoa. Yeah. It was owned by his former business partner. Yes. Oh, by his former partner. Yeah. Damn. So he paid someone to do it.
Starting point is 02:16:44 He's not out doing it, right? Correct. Okay. They have him on tape, paying four men to do it. What was the price? What do I need to pay to get my rival Firebomb?
Starting point is 02:16:58 That's a good question. Let's click through here and see if there's any numbers. Too bad we don't even have a rival DFW podcast or else we would do that to you. Firebubbub. He got half the sentence of the Lego guy. Now the Lego guy
Starting point is 02:17:13 had stolen a lot of Legos, And I feel like you're acting like that's just stealing anything. We got to reset. We got to reset. 2017, the turkey leg hut became one of the most prominent hot spots in Houston, where Drake, the aforementioned James Hardin, Snoop Dog would visit and post. Like, they would sell these stuffed turkey legs. Honestly, this is just a professionalized version of the d'abé-gé type food.
Starting point is 02:17:43 the pineapple we were talking about last week. I know what he's saying. Hood food. Oh, okay. It's a stuffed turkey leg that they're selling out of a... I was going to say it like just a state fair food. Basically, yeah. You sell all year.
Starting point is 02:18:05 What are they stuffing it with? Because a turkey leg is good on its own, right? I guarantee you there's bacon in here. Yeah, now you've got to church it up. Probably some cheese. deep fry it says you can cut a pocket in the drumstick and load it with ingredients like macaroni
Starting point is 02:18:23 and crawfish at two-faced all right okay I think those enhance it that sounds incredible that sounds way better than bacon see you don't have to put bacon on everything dude write that down you can try I had another World Cup story
Starting point is 02:18:43 let me get back over there somebody's oh yeah Two Texas men were charged after the English team's bus got robbed of gear. You just wanted some shin guards? You know, Suvies. Denied. You don't go Suvi?
Starting point is 02:19:09 Blake likes Suvi. Your denial has been denied. Yeah, two men. I want that to live forever. It's one of my favorite drops. It really is. It says cleats, goalkeeper gloves, a ball, and several sets of shorts. They were probably selling this stuff, right?
Starting point is 02:19:33 Wait, what was the cleat argument we had before the show? Oh, yeah. Because I was telling Blake, one of the great moments in your life is when you get your own bowling shoes. And he asked me if I had ever been. bought bowling shoes. And I explained to him that run the ball guy absolutely bought his own bowling shoes. Yeah, he did the math early.
Starting point is 02:19:54 I never got bowling shoes though till I was... I don't know. Yeah, was I like 30? And it was like the most... First of all, it was a revelation that I could buy bowling shoes. Like, wait.
Starting point is 02:20:09 I could buy the bowling shoes that they have at the alley, like the exact same kind, but they wouldn't have been worn a million times before. And they're like, yeah. You'd be the first one to wear them. Yeah, kind of wear them around your house and really just get a feel for the archers.
Starting point is 02:20:22 Dude, I did. I break them in a little bit. Of course you did. He was approaching it from the germ angle. No. Strictly monetary. You're strictly to monetary, but just the joy of owning something that I felt, I didn't know. No one ever taught.
Starting point is 02:20:37 See, you talk about in school. Like, they don't teach you about how to balance a checkbook, you know? They don't teach you things you need to know in life. Like, you could own those bowling shoes. You don't have to be beholden to the man. but big bowling rental wants you to think. They don't even want you to know. They don't want you to know.
Starting point is 02:20:54 There's no advertisements around for bowling shoes. Like when is the last time you saw a billboard advertising bowling shoes? Talking to a guy there and he's like, yeah, it's illegal to own. You can buy basketball shoes. You can buy tennis shoes. You can buy wrestling. I can go to the store right now and buy those wrestling shoes and walk out. Everybody's like, oh, okay, cool.
Starting point is 02:21:15 New Brunswick is really... But bowling shoes, you can't walk into... Mark. Any sporting goods store. They don't just have them on the shelf. You got a special order them. Yeah. And it's so great.
Starting point is 02:21:25 And then Jake's like, why is that so great? Oh, yeah. I remember the first day I bought cleats. It was great. Yeah. Just got a shit on everything. I just, I don't know. I mean, I played a lot of sports, and I just, I guess I don't really remember the moment I got a pair of shoes is.
Starting point is 02:21:45 These were out of reach. They were thought of as. The only, as a little kid, no one ever said, hey, you might be able to buy these one day if you work hard enough. They just, they just said, hey, you're going to be renting these for the rest of your life because that's the way it is, kid. Yeah, and I mean, these two entrepreneurial young men took it upon themselves to rob the most popular soccer team in the world's bus. Get their own shoes. I like rent my own cleats because I like to huff that cleaner that they let you spray in. there.
Starting point is 02:22:22 The bowling that cleaner? Yeah, the shoe cleaner that they let you I was thinking about that the other day. They pretty spare
Starting point is 02:22:30 with that. They're like, Oh, sometimes you get a self-service. Okay. Like, is it a Lysol can? Is that all they're doing?
Starting point is 02:22:38 Basically. Yeah. Basically. We had a female giraffe calf born at the Fort Worth Zoo, Blake. This is going to be
Starting point is 02:22:48 soccer related. It's not soccer related, but we are voting until June 27th online. It's not named flopping. It's not named human slave or... Someone did send us... Maybe we'll do that on viewer mail Thursday.
Starting point is 02:23:06 A good breakdown of how FIFA does and doesn't. Like, the countries it can help, the countries it doesn't. It's not all bad. It's just mostly bad. Just mostly bad. Let's see here. Where did we want to end up? You guys have any interest in watching that new documentary on Netflix about the lady who stole the baby in Texas?
Starting point is 02:23:36 Oh, yeah. It's the cut it out of the... Have you heard about this? Yeah. It was in New Boston. Yeah, we've talked about the story. There might have been an Ozark storyline. It's called maternal instinct. It's all the rage right now. I guess she pretended...
Starting point is 02:23:54 Yeah, they pulled her over. To have just had the baby in her car. but she had actually like just cut it out of some other lady like couple streets down something like that yeah it was in Texas but had like that that was her big plan is to well I'll pretend that I just gave birth it'll be great then I'll have a baby ma'am your vagina's still in pretty good shape
Starting point is 02:24:19 are you sure that yeah the dumb zone news Like, how did you not remember that part? Good, done something. Happy birthday. Thank you. Get out of a leaf blow, or.
Starting point is 02:24:36 I don't know. Figure it out. Viewer mail birthdays today brought to us by Qualis roofing. Qualis roofing. Qualis put the roof on my house, which means the roof on the dragon den of inequality. And it was soup's ease. it was we just had Qualis come out for a free roof inspection. That's it.
Starting point is 02:25:02 That was it. And then they dealt with the insurance. So they found damage because we hadn't had a roof inspection in definitely five years, maybe 10. So they found damage. Said, hey, I think the insurance company can cover this. How about we take care of it for you? Who's your insurance company? So they did all the calls.
Starting point is 02:25:21 We paid the deductible and that was it out of pocket. And we have a brand new roof. You can eat off it. That's how clean that roof is. And you know how many times rain gets in now? Mostly not. Most pretty much zero. QualusGC.com.
Starting point is 02:25:42 These guys are the best. Got to chop it off with some of those guys at the summer event. It's just, I don't know. It feels good to know that they like taking care of you. You're cool to them. It's all working very well. And it's like a really great bit because there's money up there on that roof. Let them take care of it.
Starting point is 02:25:58 QualsGC.com. And if you don't need a roof, they come out. They do the inspection. They give you a T-shirt right off their back. QualisGC.com. Then you walk, they go away, tarps off? That's right. I cut up some drops if you want to do something with those at some point.
Starting point is 02:26:17 Oh, the tarps off drop? Yeah. Drop trout. The more you hear it, you can tell that he's laughing as he says it. Hog out. Boy, I wish I could be a guy who could just go hog out. Man, no, you don't. Why?
Starting point is 02:26:40 Then it would be something impressive that I got a hog. Like, you wouldn't say that's a hog. I don't think. Maybe feral, but... Dear Mr. Michael Boubley of the seafood buffet. I'm writing to wish a dumb zone devotee Al Lopez, a happy 46th birthday. He woke himself up in that special way twice. There's nothing twice as aggressive, but...
Starting point is 02:27:07 I'm going to time for that. That's going back to bed. His leaders are the Puddle Poole's mascot, hot deaf girl, and his Lord and Savior T.C. Fleming. Just the right amount of Sarah Hepelah's dairy canisters. More the boys talk. Keep doing what you're doing, Playboy and chase that money. RIP Dutch Pentameter from Pelo in Plano sent from my Acer while using my Android device streaming episodes of King of Queen.
Starting point is 02:27:44 Hell yeah. That's a good dude right there. Hey, I know that I'm known for being not near as smart as I think I am. I didn't know Cape Verde was a country. Did you guys all know that? Cape Verde just drew zero-zero with Spain in the World Cup, which I am under the impression they just have countries in. Cape Verde.
Starting point is 02:28:12 Real country. Sounds like a sauce. You get into Mexican food restaurant. Cape Verde on a map. It's in Africa. No chance, yeah. Anywhere near the Chad? Oh, it's the tip.
Starting point is 02:28:27 Community Mechanical Presents on this name. Oh, where's Travis? In history. You want to grab a mic or you want to sit over here and grab a headset? What do you want to do? I got a mic. They tied Spain, Dan. Who would have thought?
Starting point is 02:28:41 Isn't Spain good? Well, that's what I'm saying. It's when America shocks the world. Hey, it's any given Sunday, right? That's what they say. Travis Gafford actually is a game of inches. One of the owners, he says the best owner, right? The most important owner of community mechanical?
Starting point is 02:28:58 I think that's pretty clear. Yeah. He's also a giant man. Under 300. You got under 300, huh? Yeah, the first time in a decade. Are you crediting the peptides in Game Day a little bit? Game Day Men's Health?
Starting point is 02:29:13 Yeah. All right, so community mechanical, though, what do you want to tell us right now? Like, you've given me a million copy points over the years. We got the mini-split you can do. We got the preventative maintenance. That's a big one, just calling these guys up. just kind of get everything looked over. What was the thing you found in my,
Starting point is 02:29:35 uh, my attic? Because I always get it messed up. Your furnace flu pipe was disconnected. The exhaust flu. So all of the carbon monoxide coming from the, uh,
Starting point is 02:29:48 the gas there was just leaking into your attic. Now it was probably going to be all right. It would just go, it's probably, probably, probably your attic event probably would have gotten rid of it. But there's also an possibility it wouldn't. So just having the preventative maintenance without that, we don't find that.
Starting point is 02:30:07 Actually had a very similar thing in Braynan's house. We went out for preventative maintenance and his exhaust from his kitchen hood was disconnected. So all of their extra gas from their gas stove was going into their attic. Now remember that next time you're not having to watch Nick Folk. I know. Think of that. Think of what that meant for the Cowboys Point Differential last year. What if Brandon died?
Starting point is 02:30:38 You hush. I'm just saying thanks to Travis. CommunityDFW.com. At community mechanical. What's the number, Travis? People text you? Yeah, 469, 66777290. One day Brandon actually texted him.
Starting point is 02:30:55 He said, can you come out here? Help us? Send out the signal. So if we turn the air, all right, it's like 80 degrees in here, let's say. If we turn the air on 78, the cool air that we feel coming out, would that be the same as if we turn the air down to 62? Yes. It's the same air. It's the same air.
Starting point is 02:31:25 It's just how much it goes. So the air that comes out is based on the air that's. You're telling me 62 degree air isn't coming out? It's not. No. You're just setting a set point. It's not different air. So the air that's going into the return then goes through and over your coil, which is chilled
Starting point is 02:31:45 by the refrigerant. And typically where you want that is between a 15 and 20 degree difference. So if let's just say the house starts at 80 and that's what the return air is, then it's going to be at 65 and it's going to blow it at 65. And then as your temperature and the return gets lower, so the air is, you know, air and the supply gets lower. You might want to get him out for preventive maintenance just to have him answer stupid questions. Oh, I got this spiel whenever he was shooting my vents when I had a humidity issue.
Starting point is 02:32:13 That's pretty sick, though. Shooting him. He can aim it, you know? He was, what's hot, right? Yeah. He's aimed it over me and was like, I'll aim it. I can't really aim it. Aim it.
Starting point is 02:32:28 I'm sorry, honey. I can't really aim it. I guess you can. No, you got to tell her. You can't. What are we doing here? This could go anywhere. Sonsei, I'm learning.
Starting point is 02:32:41 Sorry, look. You got to wear, these goggles are brought to you by Mikilova Ultra. Put them on. You can aim your pee though, right? Ah, it's different. It's a different. Yeah. Different hole.
Starting point is 02:32:55 That's, it's shocking you haven't yet used the, hey, porn stars still don't need goggles in your shaming of championship celebrations. Oh, thank you. Today's Monday, June 15th. On this day in 1785, it was the first ever fatalities
Starting point is 02:33:15 in aviation history. Okay. Two Frenchmen attempted to cross the English Channel from France to England in a balloon, which caught fire and crashed and they were all dead.
Starting point is 02:33:31 this is the first time okay so they took a series of photographs on this day in 1878 Edward Muggeridge had a bet with Leland Stanford Leland lost Edward was like I swear to God
Starting point is 02:33:53 dude we're going to take photos we're just going to take these rapid fire photos and it's 1878 so they probably had to have like 40 cameras and to do it and they go I'm betting you
Starting point is 02:34:06 that when a horse runs sometimes all the hooves are off the ground at the same time. See? And then they bet it and he won. That's awesome actually. Oh, 12 cameras. They actually use 12 different cameras.
Starting point is 02:34:24 That's very cool. They're like the myth busters of the late 19th century. On this day in 1938, Grego, Uh-oh. Reds pitcher Johnny Vandermeier through his second straight no-hitter. That is the only person to ever do that.
Starting point is 02:34:50 I say Grego, because that would be a big argument with Grego. All of a name. Yeah, should Johnny Vandermeer? If he were to do that every year. Right, but everything else. But he has like a five and 15 record. Totally spare pedestrian, but once a year. But he would do two consecutive no-hitter.
Starting point is 02:35:08 Yeah, put him in. That's cool. So it's, again, he's going to be a five and 15, five, nine ERA. He's barely going to eat a hundred innings for you. Yeah, but now that we're smarter with, wouldn't you throw him and if he gives up a hit, you pull him? Right away. Yes. Simple.
Starting point is 02:35:28 And just wait for. Yeah. For the time. But you start him every five days. He's able to get through the middle of the first inning. Start him every day. It doesn't matter. Then when he does pitch a no hitter, can you imagine the sellout crowd for the next game?
Starting point is 02:35:39 Dude, yes. Well, then you start. sit him into the playoffs. That's so stupid. You just wait. Do you kind of hold until game seven? Absolutely. Absolutely.
Starting point is 02:35:49 It's a guaranteed win. Yes. The Polly Marcus is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. But back then they were just like, yeah, yeah, sure. Throw your nine innings. See you tomorrow. On this day in 2008, it was Tiger versus Rock Omediate at the U.S. Open. The playoff.
Starting point is 02:36:11 Another Joe golfer. Yeah, probably somewhere in there. Dude, his name's Rocco. Come on. Jake, on this day in 2015, Rachel Dolazal, resigned as president of the NCAA... NWACP's Spokane chapter.
Starting point is 02:36:29 Yeah, the vibrant Spokane, Washington chapter of the NWACP. Yeah. She's on only fans. What's that? You heard me. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 02:36:43 How do you know these things? On this day in 20... I can show you. Oh, this is another Jake one. On this day in 2018, someone named Renee Boucher. Don't know if this is a man or a lady. Name Renee.
Starting point is 02:37:02 Because the story is that they were a neighbor of Senator Rand Paul. Oh, damn, son. This is one of my favorite stories of all time. This came up in a conversation the other day. You tell the world why this person was sentenced to 30 days in prison. Okay, so I'm sure some of the details are disputed by each sides of the political aisle.
Starting point is 02:37:25 Because I think this guy was probably like a Democrat. He was a guy who lived in the neighborhood that Rand Paul lived in. But like old men do, they had developed a beef over landscaping. And where their property lines ended and began. and who was responsible for what leaves. And this guy had blown a bunch of leaves over onto Rand Paul's yard, and then that – Rand Paul blew them back over onto his yard, and then the guy attacked him.
Starting point is 02:37:59 And, like, they fought in the yard, like, on the leaves. And this guy, like, fucked him up. Two old men? Yes. Like, old senator – I mean, one of them. The other one was a guy who lives in a rich neighborhood in D.C. And he, like, broke five of his ribs. And the other guy got messed up, too.
Starting point is 02:38:18 The guy who got 30 days. Like, Rand Paul jacked him. They beat each other up over. It was a better fight than anything we saw last night. Way better. And they were both really into it, you know? And that's what I swear to God. There's some backstory of, like, they didn't like each other.
Starting point is 02:38:33 But a lot of it was over this. Like, they had neighborhood beef. And eventually the guy was like, I've had enough. I'm going to go attack a sitting senator. in his front yard. It's very funny to me. So it is June 15th, this day in Dumb Zone history. I have a lot if we have time.
Starting point is 02:38:56 Where are we going to go? You guys can't the QBR. Bowling. We have plenty of time. Hey, you guys want to toss the pill around? I actually will throw with you. I brought my mint. Let's do it.
Starting point is 02:39:06 In 2020, Dan told us why he had to lie about leaving radio. when he moved out of Dayton. Because you moved out of Dayton for the job at the ticket, but you told the radio station you were getting out of radio. Because there was a previous program director who was going to move to Miami. He got a big offer in Miami, and the Dayton radio station denied it.
Starting point is 02:39:29 The radio host from my slot previously. Okay. Yeah, it had a big gig. Like for $200,000. Back then. And they said no. That's insane. And they said no because you're under contract.
Starting point is 02:39:42 they called the yeah so i'm like if these are the kind of people i'm dealing with i have to lie yeah and like we've joked about this before and like i get some level of the non-compete thing but the k t one really did always bother me at our place like kt was a weekend producer making seven 25 with no no path like regular work yeah was even getting 10 hours a week on the payroll if that and we were both you know we were weekend six to ten hours, seven 25, and he got a full-time job offer at the fan. And I swear to God, if that were his boss, I'd be like, that's cool.
Starting point is 02:40:22 And they were not happy about it. It's also a, I would wear like a thing of honor, badge of honor, is it? Promote people. We got. Just like all the bad radio interns, yeah. You used to do that, right? Hey, I hired this guy, and he turns out to be really good. Claim the win.
Starting point is 02:40:36 I guess I have a good eye for talent. But instead it was like a, it was really weird. It was really weird Look when you got a chance to go produce Elf and Slater You gotta dive at it Well that's also a real weird one too It wasn't Elfin Slater wasn't it No
Starting point is 02:40:51 It was Ben Skinskine? That was Roy But the elf thing is always baffled me too Because it's like I'm going to hate KT forever And never allow him Like to even think of applying for a job here Let alone I'll talk to him But yeah elf went
Starting point is 02:41:08 Went up against us on the against you. Me and Bob. Yeah, specifically. Said bad things about us publicly, me, particularly, perhaps, because he was on the list of 500 that figured he should have been co-hosting with Bob instead of me. More on that tomorrow. Oh, really?
Starting point is 02:41:26 Well, the coop fight. Oh, okay. He's on the list. Yeah, every's on this. Well. Anyway, publicly, like, bashed the ticket and said what we were doing sucked and all that. And then he's back working there as if, hey, this is great. and that's the way it should be though
Starting point is 02:41:42 I'm not bagging on that that is the way it should be he's a good friend you knew him previous he got an opportunity to do a full-time gig so he went and took it took his shot look you think you're gonna a lot of people took shots at the old bad radio
Starting point is 02:41:58 no it's true but he they they failed in their endeavor as did Michael Irvin before them as did you know whatever show was on so now yeah then he comes back, that's the way you should. Hey, good job.
Starting point is 02:42:12 You tried? Come back to the family here. Not, hey, fuck you, because you even thought of making more than $7 an hour. Yeah. It just seems very, it was always baffling to me. Then you also told the story of the program director that would time your return music because it couldn't go longer than 14 seconds and he would sit in the studio with a stopwatch. Boy, I bet Dan took that well.
Starting point is 02:42:35 I told you how I took it. Yeah. It's just hard cut. Yeah. would come back from break with a really, it was the, uh, return from break song. All right, welcome back. We're on the Dan McDonnell show. And it is, yeah. Whatever. Something's never changed. Uh, Jake, this was the day in 2020 when you told the story about how you couldn't find the block of Velvita cheese at the grocery store. Yeah, that went,
Starting point is 02:43:11 that went minivai. Which then resulted in Velvita cheese, tweeting at Jake where you can find it. Oh, I didn't realize that. Oh, yeah. They were aware they had a problem on their hands. They were to hit you up. Yeah, because people started tagging. I think they might have had like a local social media manager because they started
Starting point is 02:43:29 tagging me when they would put it in new stores. They'd be like, hey, just so you know. Wow, you affect change. It was a thing, man, where it just everybody seemed to all realize at the same time. Like, wait a minute, this is never in the same place. You know, knowing your history with cheese. That even really illuminates further. How devastating last night must have been.
Starting point is 02:43:50 It wasn't good. But Matt Grimm saved the day. No one out pizzas the hut in a pinch, and that's the play we had to call. It's not the play you want to call, but it worked. And I'll be eating the rest of it and have an hour. This was also squarely in COVID.
Starting point is 02:44:06 It's like a big block of LVita cheese could easily make or break your night. And it was a big deal that you couldn't find it. In 2021, we were having the rolling black. blackouts. Oh, yeah. Remember the grid? This was probably not the first time, but it is reiterated here.
Starting point is 02:44:24 Dan needs a power wall. Do you have one? Regular check on. Not yet, but this is the time that I'm really starting to look into it. Okay. Ercott suggested that you set your thermostat at 82 while sleeping. How do you think that went over? And see, I get called a communist.
Starting point is 02:44:45 And these people are trying to tell me what to do with my air conditioner. It's sitting at 82. This was also the summer when the model admitted that she gave seven Phoenix Suns players oral sex, and they went on to go 67 and 23 after that. That was a big moment. That's when I realized that the NBA players had a problem because Instagram Nookie Girls were going on podcast. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:45:14 It was right before the bubble. They were horrible, and they went like 10-0 in the bubble. And everyone pointed back to this one Latina chick. Was Mikhail Bridges on that team? He was. All right. And then 2022, a few Jake wants. The first, this is, I think the first time Jake said he wanted a cat.
Starting point is 02:45:37 Bingo. You get one. That's my cat. Jake wanted us to roll on us honking a boob. at home? That would elicit no response, I think, if I did that. I don't think she'd care. I'd probably at least get a, what are you doing?
Starting point is 02:45:57 Yeah. And then Jake wants to tell someone, Jake wants to tell someone, I'm not asking. Ooh. Some of this not your kid? Yeah, yeah. Because obviously that's a weird thing. I mean, you could definitely say it to your kid, but somebody that's, if you had the dynamic with, you're just like, yeah, oh, no, no, no, I'm not asking.
Starting point is 02:46:20 I've never been in that powerful of a position, but. Is that dickier than did I stutter? Man, that's a tough one, too. Did I stutter? That feels more violent. And then finally we had Dominic Robinson on, which I think earlier in this week or maybe the week before, you had told the Clemson story about going to the recruiting trip and, going to the game.
Starting point is 02:46:45 Well, it wasn't until this day that we had Dominic Robinson on who told us he saw Dan hold the same salad for two hours. That's when we got that info. Yeah, the story hit a brand new level. Got it. When Dominic Robbins game came on. He's an evil dude. I made it better.
Starting point is 02:47:05 Okay. More birthdays. I have a phone situation to where I messed up somewhere and I had double all my contacts. Oh, wow. And so I found a, like a get rid of your dupes app, did it. And when it did it, it reset everybody in my phone's birthday. And it seems to have like reset it to the day prior.
Starting point is 02:47:37 I don't know why. I don't know if anybody else has ever had this problem. But this was like a couple of years ago. So that means for. Like, yesterday I told you, my phone told me it was George's birthday. But I think it's actually today. Uh-oh. But I'm not sure.
Starting point is 02:47:58 So happy birthday to Jorts, either belatedly or today. Okay. Jordan, George Richardson. What a guy. He's great. What a guy. Proud to know him. I think it's probably today, because I have it listed on today's today.
Starting point is 02:48:19 history that I save every year. Elsewhere, though, less important people than Jorts. Travis Jankowski is 35. First base coach. Sala Mejuri is 40. Is Travis Jankowski a potential future managerial candidate? Because I've had roughly enough.
Starting point is 02:48:42 Yes. I've had it up to here. Sala, a big player in the Luka book. Mm-hmm. Because Luca was really not thrilled with what a prick Rick was to Sala. Like, Dirk had a little bit of that with Rick, too. Where, like, Rick wouldn't get on them, but they're the type of people that would be like, what do we treat this guy like trash for? Dennis Smith Jr. was the other one?
Starting point is 02:49:11 DSJ, for sure. But the match ended up in wrestling, though. No. Good for him. Here's a wild thing. So Sala Meshry is 40. Muhammad Sala is 34. Read a book.
Starting point is 02:49:27 He was named after Sala Mejuri, the six-year-old basketball phenom. Cooper Cup is 33. Justin Leonard is 54. Michael Block is 48. Your hero. No. Your golf hero. No.
Starting point is 02:49:48 You're always talking to us about how it's block time. And then remember we went to that one tournament, Lake's like, let's do the block walk. and then we had to That's where you follow that No Get to watch a lot of bogeys Mike Fires is 41 pitcher
Starting point is 02:50:07 Do you know what his big bullet point is? No, one hand Two hands 10 fingers He exposed the Astros sign stealing Oh that's right Because he was on the Astros And then he exposed it
Starting point is 02:50:22 When he was on another team later You know who that makes me think of and it might have been somebody different she was going after, but Jessica Mendoza, because remember, she's a female analyst for ESPN, and she came on and was like, yeah, this guy's a narc.
Starting point is 02:50:42 Like, I would want nothing to do. She basically Dave Bliss. Oh. Do you know, like... I was reading something about that. Like, had he anonymously given a writer this tip or something? it would have never turned in anything, right? Yeah, so that's what she was saying is like,
Starting point is 02:51:04 oh, he should have just gone to MLB. Oh, is that from her? Okay. That's one thing, yeah. And they're like, yeah, I'm sure MLB would have been like, you know what, we've got to take away a World Series. Let's, no, you got to go to an independent. Andy Pettit is 54.
Starting point is 02:51:22 A long story, but it's not that interesting. Mike Holmgren is 78. It looks like a walrus. Tim Likasim. Tim Linscomb is Philo. I love you. Wade Boggs is 68. D drank lots of beers on the cross-country flight, correct?
Starting point is 02:51:53 Lance Parrish is 70. He's a former baseball player. I coach his granddaughter and softball. That's one way to make the list. That's right. That's how you can make the list. If you had a kid play for me. Dusty Baker is 77

Starting point is 02:53:07 It's crazy. Did you have a phone? Nope. What about your iPad? It was different. You just had each other. Neopatiot-Harek. Harris is 53.

Starting point is 02:53:39 He had a party, because I think it was a Halloween party. and his charcutory board was stylized as the dead body of Amy Winehouse who had recently overdosed. So it was like her dead, naked OD body, but with meat. There wasn't even a cake, it was meat. It was meat.
Starting point is 02:54:01 See the salamiers, her nipples. It's so gross. And it's funny, too, because, like, Oh, it's super real. And he posted the picture. He wasn't worried, he didn't think about twice about, dude, you don't have the level of phone calls you have to get to get that.
Starting point is 02:54:15 made like this is not like oh dude you shouldn't have brought that can't cancel like you clearly put a lot of work into this paid a deposit he posted it and then like a few weeks later it was like all right i regretfully yeah we got to find a picture who's got the mic back there let's see if they know the significance got it right here of this uh guest ice cube is 57 do you know the bullet point for Ice Cube and the Dan, Jake, and Blake program.

Starting point is 02:55:29 Jingping? The president of China? Yeah. But that caps off whenever Dan took the wireless to the TikTok booth. Oh, yeah. Instead, no broadcasting here. Just like, well, how do you like working for Ziz Jinping? That was a lot of fun.

Starting point is 02:56:05 Won a Super Bowl. Boise State? Yeah. I don't get your note on this guy. Tony Clark is 54. I'm certain that he was like the head of the Major League Baseball Players Association at one point. We had something else, though.
Starting point is 02:56:20 But Blake wrote down next to him, and we need this explained, wife or sister? Wasn't that the guy that he slept with his? wife's sister or a sister-in-law and then we played the game all through spring training. We're asking Kyle Harrison about it and we weren't allowed to talk about it. I was almost going to say this guy should be the dumb zone birthday of the day. Well, you know why we can't do that.
Starting point is 02:56:45 Well, but yeah, this guy was a big deal to our show. That's right. I forgot all about that. I'm like, why would you write that? What does that mean? You're right. He was the MLBPA guy this year before. So what came out?
Starting point is 02:57:01 He was sleeping with his wife's sister? His sister-in-law, which then we had to ask, was it his brother's sister? Wife. Yeah, brother's wife. Brother's wife? Brother's wife. And it turned out it was his wife's sister. Yes.
Starting point is 02:57:15 And which one would be worse? Right. Or better. I mean, your brother's wife, you are betraying your blood, but also you don't choose your blood. your brother might have been an asshole right he was just it's a circumstance that you were born to that family you chose her you told her i love you i'm gonna be with you forever and all that and then you bang her sister that almost seems more egregious than then your blood like what is blood that seems more fun does seem more fun shout out to that guy

Starting point is 02:58:41 And one of us is not holding up their side of the bargain. She claimed that once she did get divorced, that she would entertain the prospect of hooking up with Blake. And now she's ghosting you. Kind of this generation's friend, Dresher. Think about it. Whoa. Kind of annoying, but...

Okay, well, first I want. want to just mention that if you do get in an accident, who would you call? I would definitely dial any area code in the Metroplex and all threes. See, when your phone dupied those contacts, easy money.
Starting point is 03:01:42 It's all right there. You don't even need to remember this. 214, 817, 3333, 33. Maybe you're taking road trips with the fam this summer. Danger is out there, awaiting at every turn. Inclement weather? Insurance type. Well, yeah, I guess you can't sue the weather, though.
Starting point is 03:01:59 But I'm just saying that could make for dangerous driving conditions. All of a sudden, something happens. You get a personal injury, and you need a personal injury attorney. Why not the best? Call the best. I've got to get my guys. Frankl and Frankl. I haven't heard that name in a long time.
