I'm a YouTuber. I'm a YouTuber. I'm a YouTuber. I'm a YouTuber. I'm a YouTuber. I'm a YouTuber. I'm a YouTuber. I think it amuses you it does for dribble, and I like things to amuse you Hello friends. I'm damn. I'm I'm Blake Jones. We're here high atop my garage. We're not in the game day men's health studios in downtown, Dallas So I suppose the dens naming rights are still up for grabs. We can go with Community Mechanical for today because they installed HVACs to... Oh, or Qualis Roofing. They installed a roof above this place. Yep. Got a Game Day hat on.

Oh, God. Got a Game Day hat. Don't encourage him. Oh, we had... Don't encourage him. Oh, we had... Parent. Parent of little kid, I can tell right away. He says that all the time.

Or he's told that by his wife, as his little boy is laughing at poop or something. Look, now he thinks it's funny. And then it somehow transferred the blame on to you because you encouraged that as if dude let me tell you it's just gonna do whatever you say something when she gets on to me about something like that I am the NBA superstar who wants to get on the good side of the refs I'm holding my I know it's my foul every time I'll hold up my number for you yeah I was encouraging encouraging him yeah it was

funny anyway with the fam yesterday well good business Wednesday afternoon fam date really yeah man think back whenever you were you your kids were my kids age if you just had one day a week We're like I got to get all this stuff done, but I don't have to go in Your kids were school age. It's It's awesome. Especially in the summer. So kids are awesome, man. It's a lot of fun Yeah, you're in the sweet spot. I don't think I want to keep I know that you're right But I feel like if you say it's the sweet spot and these are the good years

Then you're just acknowledging that at some point it has to be total shit, which I know it will but I don't want to think about it I want to think it's all gonna be good yesterday I don't know that it goes to total like I wouldn't call my life total shit. I think it's going great No, I mean the relationship with the paint with the kids, you know, like oh, yeah, you'll hear your parents talk about yeah with the kids, you know, like, you'll hear parents talk about it. Yeah. We went to a pizza place in Louisville. This is the power of moms on the gram. I'd never heard of this place, but apparently there's like an old downtown Louisville and they got like, you know, a brewery and whatever and they have an Italian place, a pizza place, I think it was called Donona.

And I think it was maybe 12, 14 bucks per kid, but if you go between two and four on Wednesday, they let the kids make a pizza. You know, I mean it's pretty simple. They've got the dough and a huge ball and they want you to knead it or roll it out, put the seasoning on it and spread. But you know. I've been to a place like that. They used to have one in Colleyville. It's a good gimmick. It's a lot of fun. And the kids love it. They just want a cheese piece. It's too big for them. So I eat the rest of it. Now your life is everybody's winning.

Kids having kids, it's fun, but it is about killing time with them. Can you make it educational? I don't know but otherwise Try to you're right to kill time you're trying to try to get something that is worth something in that time Not just hand them the iPad But even that if you're handing the iPad well this one is kind of education Yeah, they before it. They need to learn about the cowboys. Yeah, uh...

I've told you, that's my problem with my weekends with my kid, because my wife works weekends and so I'm solo with Brooks on Saturday and Sunday, and my goal is to just get to Sunday night when this can all be over with. Get him tired enough to go to sleep. But then I think of you, like, just like you said, we're in the sweet spot. This is the fun time with kids. And so there's just such a dilemma here

of how do I enjoy my time but also get this done with as soon as I can. Don't think of it like you're trying to tire them out. Just thinking of it like you're just. I mean, that's what you're thinking at night. Like all the stuff we did and you're not tired, but go skating, go. Yeah, I'm not trying to. You're just I mean that's what you're thinking at night like all the stuff we did and you're not tired, but yeah skating go

Yeah, I'm not trying to I just try to think of it like See the world just like you're hanging out with your bros But it's just him instead like you're kicking it You know I used to just go do shit with my friends in my 20s in the evening if I had nothing to do Now we just do now. I just do this yeah, And honestly, when it's just me and him, it feels very similar, because if he's in the back of the car and the song changes, no matter when it changes, he's like, who is this?

But he says it in kind of slurred, he can't really talk. He's like, who is this? That does sound like when you hang out with your bro. That's what I'm saying, and from the front seat, three or four times, I've instinctively thought about somebody having the aux cord in like the back of a 2004 Altima that I'd rolled a blunt in.

And he just goes like, who is this? Who is this? And I'm just like, you like this shit? I hit him exactly the same as if I was just playing something for my buddies. And and we just hang out So it was fun and after that there was a little uh you know the move after that ice cream near me And there was a place in downtown Louisville called Shake Land and they had ice cream But what they also had was they called it Dubai

chocolate you know they have like different treats in different parts of the world are you guys aware of this have you seen this yeah so they're like I guess this is something that comes from both like Iran and Turkey and they use Belgian chocolate but it has like these pistachio thing you were into a sitting was indicating he'd heard of it okay it's got like some I don't know some weird pistachio it's like a KitKat almost but it was crazy good and the lady you know she's got the news on max volume. And it's kind of like, oh, and Kristen was like, God, that's aggressive. I'm like, well, I have a feeling this is pertinent for her.

And yeah, I walked over there and I was like, okay, so like, where's this? Is this made in Dubai? And she's like, no, I make it here. I'm like, that's not what I meant. I mean, does this style of chocolate? She's like, no no Bedford or Louisville You know and so we just started talking and it was depressing and Encouraging at the same time because I could tell she was about 45 which means and I could tell she was Persian

Which means I know why you're here you left in 79 or your family left And so I just started talking to her about it and it was I don't know she was a sweetheart of a lady It was cool. She people like that, you know, they get joy to give you their weird culture thing You know, and so she was the kids taking a bite of it. She was really into that. She was like, you know I think it's over and I was like the conflict and she's like well for today I was like it might be for today. I was like, I don't think it's over though. Why? She was just like, yeah, it's hard for regular people.

She's like, I don't have anything to do with this. And I was like, all right, got to go. I'm definitely the idiot of the show. Or at least the middle idiot. I have a college degree. Oh, I'm the idiot of the show. I think a lot about the fact that if a three of us took an IQ test I would a hundred percent finish third not by much, but I would look at this same beggar. We I know

Just cuz I know a bunch of stuff doesn't mean I'm smart. I Just might a bunch of shit, but you did say like I know she left in 79 and I don't have any idea what that means No Well, they're so I know she left in 79 and I don't have any idea what that means. No Well, they're so They really wanted Ronald Reagan to be no well So if we find ourselves in a weird position here where we're like man, we should go get that regime over there out of there Those are no good We want democratically elected ones and I'm not gonna sit here and pump up the Iranian regime and obviously I also I don't really want to talk about this but the point is in 1979 you know they overthrew the government that we

had installed right like we had a CIA backed like run and you know I don't say banana Republic we ran the country they were like we're tired of this shit and if you ever watch parades of 1979 in Tehran, that was the first time I had ever seen revolutionary parades before. That's like the hostages, right? Yeah, right. That's the Iranian hostages, yeah.

And so, you know. That's a big deal as a little kid. You meet people from over there, a lot of times, their family came here right then. And a lot of times, they were born here family came here right then. And a lot of times they were born here, like right around then. OK. We'll send them back anyway.

The chocolate's dope is what I'm saying. The chocolate, oh yeah. It's phenomenal chocolate. Dubai chocolate. Nice looking lady. I knew Dan would be interested. Not my type. But I need you to be very aware that Persian...

Persian... this lady's whiter than I am. Okay. I do not... I reject whatever claim you just made about my racial preferences. My only rule is no Asians. Oh! Interesting. I have standards here. Personal. I have I have standards here personal Oh the other thing I did yesterday real quick is I had to go Nora did like a three half-day dance camp I guess it's just through like Colleyville heritage or something going time 100% killing time

She's done a couple of other things this summer already where I'm like that was valuable I can't you signed up for that and you're like, you know what? It's a similar price if I just paid a babysitter to be at home with her. Yeah, it is. So why not? She's with two or three friends. And in my mind, I think of it as she's

getting four hours of follow instruction practice. Fine, it's cool. It's cheap. But then to put on the parents that we're going to have a quote show off. I believe that you've been teaching them dancing. I don't worry about it at all. Yeah, that's probably for that.

But calling for me to be there at noon on a Wednesday. Oh, and here let me tell you something. I went to a dance recital the week prior. They had worked on those dances for five, six months and it was awesome. You know, they were very proud. This was two and a half days. It was like a one minute dance. Dance Pride Night. It was a joke. I was upset.

Did you go nuts? Did you go off? Did you give him a piece of your mind? Yeah, I'm actually going to show up at the next school board meeting about it. But why would we need a camp? She went to the camp at the lake last week at Grapevine Lake. They did not ask me at the end of it to be like, watch your swim. Yeah, like graduation. Check this out. Three day camp graduation.

Do the slide, Nora. Show them what you've been doing. Oh, I know. You don't need me. So on Business Wednesday, we actually recorded a Business Wednesday interview for next week. And it was with some guys from Whataburger. And we have not promoted yet.

We need to make sure everybody knows about this. We're going to be at Whataburger in Texas. No. Is it Frisco officially? Yeah. El Dorado and the Tollway, Tuesday, July 8th, regular show time is we record at 1130 every day. We actually go live every day too, if you care, you can go to YouTube and see that. But so, El Dorado and the Tollway. Damn, my car tray is in my car. and the tollway. Oh damn, my car tray is in my car. That's okay man, we got a video. I'm gonna go get it. People want to see it, they can see it. No I want you to talk

to the the introduce our sit-ins and stuff while I go. Okay yeah. Go get the car tray. All right we've got Justin Hayward. You not have one of your last name out there. That's fine. Yeah, that's cool Yeah, so my thought here is just why go get the trade of Britain We did it on the show the other day and we have a visual of the tray out there on social media right now Funny little send up. He must have a bit planned for it. That's probably you know, why should I ever doubt him? He certainly has something better than just he's gonna bring the trade back up here so what's your bit Justin what do you do yeah beef in here today yeah yeah these boys push the sled if we need a yard yeah yeah yeah yeah no I just long time fan

of no like work light what's your bid yeah so I'm a a long time fan of... No, like work, light, what's your bid? Yeah, so I'm a management consultant, so right now I'm attached to a roofing company. So I kind of specialize with... How big of a roofing company uses a consulting, like bigger than Qualys? No, no, no, no, no. Or is this company that size?

No, no, no, no, no. They do about four to five million a year. And so... I guess I don't really know. A lot of like, you know, entrepreneurs in that space got a skillset, they're great at like getting stuff fired up. I'm sure you guys probably went through some of these same growing pains where you get it going.

And then you just don't have that structure in place to kind of help you scale and stuff. We have a fractional CFO. It's basically what I do. And he's like Christ to me. Is he? I mean, just from what he's taught me to also just how easy he makes everything. Yeah, I dance back

How was it when I was gone terrible right learned a little cool Well, yeah, the show just isn't the same without you. No Blake is waiting He said probably Justin Blake said you probably have a huge bit planned Oh, which is why you went down and got it. So we were just waiting for it. No, I just wanted to show everybody the tray. It's the car tray. This is Jake's dream. And they have made these exclusively for us.

Like, you can't go on the Wada store. We've been to the Wada store, and you can buy a lot of cool stuff there. Like gear, shirts, hats, cups. This Wrangler, Wada-Ruga shirt. Not that one one though, baby This is going to be free for the first 75 people That show up you you're gonna have to indicate that you're a dumb zone listener. We got to be careful about that

We can't just give them to any idiot Yeah, I go cuz fresco is full of them I had an idea for how people could prove their loyalty But thought I'd probably be pretty sleepy after we gave out like four or five trays. So I'm just like, ah. OK. Anyways.

Like 90%, 10%, is that what we're talking about? So. I mean, that would prove you're a fan. Yeah. But we've got to come up with some sort of purity test. Yeah, so El Dorado in the tollway Tuesday July 8th, we got to pump it up because we're gonna be gone next week and we will have some programming for you, but

And I think you have to buy a number one Okay, so the copy said No, it didn't say you have to buy a number one to get anything. Okay. It's just we want to promote. Let's see what the copy did. I'll look at the copy. I was looking at the copy this morning.

I'm looking at it right now. What does the copy say? Water Burger's 75th anniversary. We're celebrating it with a live Dumb Zone podcast. And the Dumb Zone Water Burger Cartray. Oh, here's their their they put in the copy tell your boss you're taking an extended lunch to get your number one with cheese hang with us and get your car tray they didn't put so you copy

got it so you interpreted that as you must buy a purchase require you have to buy something with contact or else. Like if you're a... I would imagine Water Burger wants you to show up and get lunch, not just roll in and get a tray and leave. It wasn't... you know, they're a restaurant. I think that just... That's implied. It's implied, yeah, you're coming to Water Burger.

So you're saying no one had plans of just walking in and getting the tray and leaving. I'm saying that if they did... I'll kick their ass if they even try it. I was trying to... I had a plan in place for how to Filter people out you guys demered at that the point is we can't say you have to do anything We would like we could say that we would like and if they wanted us to say it we would like that's a thing But they're not saying that they're saying these are free

Yeah, that's right I'm just saying trying to impose these draconian measures on the people that are listening. I want to do Rybuyer sponsors. But our people are good people and they're going to show it like Justin, if you went out there, would you just grab a tray and leave or would you actually buy something? No, absolutely not. And we know that, but here's what this is. And this is the problem. You know how like, you know how like, uh,

Look at Troy, that guy's gonna eat some water burger. You know how like cops, cops end up having maybe slightly hot racial opinions at times because they're on the front lines of like how society has mistreated people based on race. I think Blake's issue here is that he's dealing with Angelo and he thinks everybody is just trying to free Turn He's like trying to keep him out like no, I want him to show up use the money get the tray But not everybody's trying to pre beat right now bilky you like you there's more and Is this like, is this like Jackie the Jokeman where there's a lot more going on than you tell us? Yeah.

Jackie the Jokeman used to text Blake every day. Dude, that's a list. Jackie the Jokeman, Jenna Ryan. Jenna Ryan, yeah. We're Facebook friends now. Yes, I'm severely beaten by Angelo. I was not beaten by Jackie the Jokeman who would send me a joke of the day. But this situation has just gotten out of control.

What are you gonna do when you go out of town? What's he gonna do? How's he gonna celebrate the fourth? How much is in his account right now? Well he lost his card. Oh no. So that sounds like an AP, not an MP. And you say, this is all now over. How would you, if you were Angelo,

isn't that the thing you're really holding onto, like second to your phone, I think. Okay, and I'm not a- This is a constant stream of free food My the likes of which I haven't gotten because I'm going to the high tone plate. He's going to like a Bob steak and chop house like he's yeah He wanted two carrots. I agree with Dan. It is his lifeline But also I bet homeless people are losing shit all the time Well, but they're not always on top of keys wallet phone

This is funny cuz I started this to be a good person and it's turned it me into a way worse person Because my first thought was like dude you have six possessions. How did you lose the biggest ones? I'm saying right so no I'm getting him a new card. So now I'm back to buying buying him food It's just you're gonna get him an air tag with it No, like he's a like he's an orca Tagged yeah, I mean I wouldn't I wouldn't mind seeing where he goes. Yeah, you should air tag him Next time I'll give you the one of my wallet right now. I don't really use it. Tell him this thing will keep you safe. It's magic.

It's a magic bean. So I told him I'd order him a new card. He's flipping that. I'll be here in two weeks or something. He said, well, how much money will be on the card when you get it? Yeah, my crewing interests. Because I think he's thinking, well, I might have 75 bucks on it. I said, no, you'll have 25 on it, because I'm also buying you

food during this downtime. And how are you doing that? It's easy to order on apps. He tells me where he's at. Yesterday, he was at a water burger in Dallas. I ordered. He knows to say Blake. Food comes to him.

Boys, though. What are we doing? The drive to Mount Tom was just a therapy session just spilling all of his Angela thoughts so so now is there a that was different okay because it takes all of my strength to not change his order because the orders like an idiot that's my question is have you been like hey no, no bacon. Do you ever have to reign him in a little bit?

Clayton and Henry and I, we came up that if he will send me, he sends me a recommendation for his order. Now if McDonald's, which they do a lot, buy one, get one McGriddles, or buy McGriddle full price, you get the second one for a dollar. If that's available, that's what you're getting. Yeah. And so that's my new rule is available, that's what you're getting. Yeah.

And so that's my new rule, is you can tell me what you want, I might get it. If there's a value. But if there's a better deal, I'm not paying for your $16 breakfast. Right. That's insane, with three hash browns. Yeah.

Who does that? I told you the second unit says that. I know, Dan, I know. But we did come up with a pretty good exit strategy of, it's not if, it's when I get tired and I just can't do this anymore. I'm gonna tell him, I'm going to put a year's worth of money on your card

and don't ever talk to me again. Now, that will be a fun experiment, so when he has $1,000 on the card, how are you gonna spend your money then? What, dude? You know how. But I'm interested. It won't last a week.

I'm interested in that too. And you have to block his number. I have to, yes, explicitly say, Here's a year, you can talk to me one year from now. I will not answer your calls or texts. I'm not helping you anymore. What if he comes back? If you hit me back before one year from now,

I take the rest of the money? No. Well, you could threaten that. You could threaten that. But if he does hit you up, don't answer, no matter what. Right. OK. Yeah.

No, this could be great. Wait, then you're going to run into him on the train. You Yeah? No, this is gonna run into him like on the goods or no What if he's like what if he's like Will Smith when he like got that job in the sad movie you see him like? You'd have happy yeah, you seem like a heater You know solving Rubik's cubes yeah, it's exactly or you know He's like leading a team at community Mechanical or something and he's just super squared away. It happens. But the likelihood is that he'll have like three days of living like Harry and Lloyd and Aspen. It's great. What if he loses that and then he's like the crypto dude that lost the jump drive and all that?

He'll lose his mind. Sorry. I like this. I like it. That's awesome. So come on out to Waterburger. Yeah, I mean speaking of Community Mechanical, let's let them sponsor sports today,

because they may have Angela working on a crew in a year from now. Not now, I'm pretty certain. All their crew seems very tall and very put together. They are our HVAC company. Communitydfw.com is their website. They also have a phone number, which we will give you in a moment, but the main thing with that number, you can text, you can call. Travis is, they're huge on customer service. One of the things I talked about them when they were, to them, about when they were over here is just my old HVAC company

actually was passed down from a dad to a daughter. And then when I called them, and they were like, yeah, we'll be here somewhere between 8 AM and 4 PM. I'm like, OK, I got to leave for work, whatever. Can you just give me a three hour window? And they're like, we can't do that. Apparently, you worked with my dad and we do things different now. Like they're trying to be more efficient. You know what I used to do for their dad? If he said I needed a new air-conditioner, like I just bought

it. I didn't ask him. That's, you know what I mean? So, you want a good customer-server, a customer relation. I think that's you know what I mean that so I do know what you want a good customer server customer relation I think that's what a community mechanical is doing for sure and I we could talk about that that part of it more later because I doubt that the family owned that company you were talking about anymore no they did oh I'm very aware I'm very companies are sold no I knew the old man the daughter no no no so it was just a lady issue Not not the case with community mechanical I've seen Travis get back to or answer the the work phone during a stars game I have a buddy who we're going to see it a sit-in soon

He he his wife was trying to get bids for their house and community for you know things fall through the cracks They missed one guy reaches out to me I sent it to Travis Travis gets back into the bid process they get the business the guys coming to do a sit-in they're gonna take care of you so the contact is communitydfw.com and the phone number answered Yeah That's the number right it is four six nine six six seven seven two nine oh yeah like that Clayton can you pull that announcement video up that I have in there, just a real quick one. This is a story that we've been following

and will continue to follow. It's a story of one of the, well, I know it's Dan's favorite college football player for this upcoming season. Play the video, Clayton. This is... Upcoming season play the video wait this is a

No, what can I get yes? The viral high school yes, he has arrived at Eastern, Michigan Now you know what you're looking at you can see his teammates This is's gonna be famous. Teammates 80% black I would say. Obviously think this is hilarious. His very white coach has a bullhorn and introduces him like a wrestler fully leaning into his last name if you have the ability to play it another time. Another time No one a seer No one a seer

How funny I don't know who's the first company to crack the code or solve the Rubik's Cube That is in IEL money based on his last name man. How what's the company that how can we do it? Yeah, think about it no, please Yeah, something. Um, I have a sports quick hit before we get into some meteor nba type topics Um saw a headline that said there was a mammoth trade made. Oh, I probably did that out of order. So I'm reading about this mammoth trade. And it seemed to be with some hockey players. So I didn't do the punchline correctly.

Did you know there's a team in NHL called the Mammoths now? Yeah. You did. I did know that. If I said, who's the Utah hockey team, you wouldL called the Mammoths now? Yeah. You did? I did know that. If I said who's the Utah hockey team, you would have said the Mammoths. I probably would have said FC, but I do know that they did it for this season because I followed a controversy where a fan had the receipts claiming they had kind of created

the logo they ended up using and the team was like Yeah, yeah, so and it's a cool logo too. It's an angry-looking And mammoths are just sick right like that's it. But why why? Utah I guess I don't know did they just they oh probably discover a mammoth anywhere Right, but if I were to just ask you dumb guy United States even though like you know it was probably closer to like Pangea when mammoths existed, if I said where in the United States right now where would we find mammoths? Utah would not have been far down the list for me. This is a guy with a master's degree. I can't keep up with that.

No, you wouldn't have said like. I wouldn't have put it anywhere on the list. I don't know. I wouldn't have had the first guess on where a mammoth would be, except to say, I think all the land used to kind of be connected, and then it broke apart. So it could be anywhere.

I don't know. The Pangea thing. Like a mammoth is pretty long ago, I think. Long, long time ago. Although, I think they have a new one in Texas, don't they? Didn't that company? That's part of the plan. Clone the wooly mammoth?

Yeah. I've wasted so much time reading about that. See, that's why I would never have said Utah, because I think of Utah as being hot. However, they did host the Winter Olympics once. Blowing my mind. So I really... I'm super, like this Utah is hot thing is confusing to me.

So it's not hot? I'm sure it gets hot, but I mean. It's not like in a hot, it's not the desert? It's in the mountains. It is? Yeah. I don't know where Utah is I Swear to God. Well, it's like one of the I can see how you could confuse it with one of the other three that it touches but I

What's that New Mexico, Nevada and hot hot? Colorado New Mexico is not hot all the time. This is the mountains. OK, any time I've ever been there, it's hot. Like, you know, I've been skiing there if you're from Texas. And I watched Breaking Bad. I never saw him skiing. In Texas, you know, that's.

It always looked hot in Breaking Bad. New Mexico's skiing. I went skiing in Utah. That's where I messed my butt up real bad. OK. Very popular. OK. Nevada, that's hot. Anyways. Very popular. OK. Nevada, that's hot.

Anyways. That's totally hot, right? Lots of heat. Anyway, Utah has a team called the Nevada. Lake Tahoe. You can ski in a lake? How do you ski in a lake? Oh, water skiing.

No. There's a mountain there. God, boy. After announcing, annunciatingating we can't do this So what's the big trade? It didn't have I don't know some guy thing Buffalo or so I didn't know I'm like, okay cool But again, it was a mammoth trade. I don't know if it was big or not Okay, they did say it was a mammoth. You've wrapped it all up for me. Yeah, Jamie Ben is back dude

We talked about that a few weeks ago like well, what's his move? That's it's very interesting One year one million dollars can earn up to three and I didn't know this but the way maybe it's like this in all sports, but the way that incentives are structured if you earn them And you go over They count on next year's cap So his salary counts on this year's cap but the Incentives for what it's worth trying to build your team out. I mean how two millions a lot of the base is one so I

Don't know how I regard him right now like I think he's awesome I love watching him play I love guys that are a little bit of shithead crazy but he's just made some really dumb decisions for a guy who's the you know the consummate purported leader. It might be weird because he was an Art Ross trophy winner to now being like Jared told us the other day your Brad Miller matters your Travis Jankowski matters so maybe he's just shifted into a captain that's just the room guy. You can be a room guy that's fine but you can't be bad it's not a... I think he's been great at accepting his role. My question that I try to like, you know, read smart hockey people or pay attention to what they're saying on is if he's even good at all as a third or fourth line center and penalty killer. All you really have to just be is replacement level. But man, last year he just stuck out.

If he sticks out like that and you're like, it'd be better to healthy scratch him on this night. Can you do that to the captain? Well, that will be very interesting. I guess that'd be a good question for you to ask when you go to the press conference that announces this. are they going to have a press conference? Maybe not.

That would be really weird now that I'm thinking about it. A press conference that I am interested in was Nico Harrison last night. Dude, I didn't even, I paid no mind to the draft. I put it on in the background for about 45 minutes, wasn't paying attention at all, happened to be up kind of late and I think I saw Sam Gannon tweet, Nico Harrison scheduled to speak in five. I'm like well yeah I guess he's a GM. Amazing. I'm just so used to the idea that he's ducking everybody that I'd completely forgotten that a draft comes with a press conference. Got an email from Carter

which is he says pretty much how I was feeling last night he says I tried to give the Mavs a chance and watch the draft well I didn't watch the draft and I just can't do it I still hate this organization until Nico's gone let's say they win the championship Then we'll all have to look at that smug son of a bitch holding the trophy go Luca go Lakers from Carter I'm not to the point of like go Laker. I just can't do that either That's why this thing is really painful You can't all of a sudden just start rooting for the evil Empire that you've rooted against all these years

Even when your baby is on that team, it's really a weird feeling. And the feeling I have about the Mavs, I think a lot of people do share. As far as Kyrie is concerned, and I've seen some people say, he's showing his belief in the organization because they're talking about a new contract He he has a one-year player option he could pick up, but they're talking about like a three-year extension It's done. Okay the hundred and whatever. Yeah million dollar extension Which

If I'm not mistaken, that extension would be pretty much the size of his one-year option he was picking up times three. Yeah. So, it's not like he's taking some kind of a discount because he's a true believer in the...what Kyrie Irving is doing is the only thing Kyrie Irving can do. He could take the one-year option, but teams are not just sitting around with

$45 million of cap space. Like, Kyrie Irving could not say, you know what, I don't believe in this organization, I'm not going to sign this contract. I'll go one year. And that would not work out well for him financially. No, it's crazy. I mean, it's a basic financial decision that we all make. Like if I said

to you I'll give you $10 now or $6 every day for the next three days, like it's, it's not, he didn't make a decision to give a discount. He made a decision to get guaranteed money, mitigate risk, and to do so traded some dollars back. But the media does this all the time. When a player does that, they're always like, looking out for the team. I'm like, it's either the team or that he's like 34, both of his knees don't work,

and somebody's willing to pay him $120 million to play basketball for the next three years. Right. I don't think he really, I mean, I'm not saying he's not to pay him a hundred and twenty million dollars to play basketball for the next three years Right, I don't think you really I mean I'm not saying he's not a good dude and a team player But when an athlete does that the only reason they wouldn't do it is if they were betting on themselves and He's clearly not in a position to do that and his style of play and he is I'm worried about that injury and him coming back as insane as it is because we flipped as far from Our thoughts on Kyrie whenever he first got here when they extended him the first time Nobody else was gonna do it and they had to do it and we were like, that's weird But I guess that's how it is. Well, guess what? They're in the exact same spot

Nobody else was gonna do this and they would have been royally effed from a PR standpoint had they not I Would have traded it. I Would have traded the entire team other than PJ once you get once you did Luca, obviously Yeah, yeah, I would have I would have started out. Maybe this is a sign and trait. I would have done that that deck There are teams that absolutely will give you real real whole type assets for three years of Kyrie at this age for sure. They may be like 2030 picks, but dude,

right now, right now, if the Mavericks wanted to, they could take Anthony Davis. They could take Kyrie Irving on this new deal They could take Daniel Gafford because he can still be traded on his new deal at three for 54 They could go get I'm not gonna say a thunder type war chest But those three players would net you over ten first-round picks I promise you that. You start throwing some other shit in there with the Jayden Hardys on his way out, whatever.

PJ Washington is here, Derek Lively is here, Cooper Flagg is here, and they can, if they want, run the draft for the next several years, but they won't. Because, you know. Because, Fico. Everything they do now is like a saving face thing you know right and it has to be for win now because you were in the NBA Finals yeah you were a win now team so to make a move from there you can't unless it was announced hey this is all financial and we're stripping this whole thing down Right, which it was not it was not about that

and I'm Listening to Nico and I'm just pissed. Anyway, let's go to the press conference You know what? I'm just gonna start it at the start so we can Hey, thank you all for being here. We're just going to have our general manager, Nico Harrison, just do a quick remark. Alright, thank you all for being here. We're just going to have our general manager, Nico Harrison,

just do a quick remarks and then we'll open it up for questions. Thanks everybody for waiting. I know it's been a long night. Gosh, what an exciting... And is this the first we've heard of him since? Like, this guy is in such deep hiding. Because... Well, after the...

Since the lottery, they've just been running... They've run Rick Welts out there. And... Jason Kidd's done a lot. Jason Kidd's done a lot. Their whole thing is a PR nightmare. And Matt Riccardi. They've been hiding Nico for sure. Exciting night for the Dallas Mavericks franchise,

for the fans, for the city of Dallas. Just his voice pisses me off. We're just super excited. It's worse when you see his face. You know, you get Cooper. It's generational talent. Ah! I hate hearing that.

I hate hearing that. You shouldn't be allowed to use the word. No. word. No top to bottom. We're excited. So He opens up for questions right away That wasn't even like a 20-second opening. That was it. My guy is good. He's a generational talent like okay, okay, gosh and generational talent that all remains to be seen many people say he is what if you had one that was already proven like only LeBron and Oscar Robertson were delivering better seasons in his first five years in the league what if you had that can you imagine anyway I'm pissed I'll get some questions.

What position do you see him primarily playing? It's funny that Jake and I have this joke. I paused my TV last night when I heard that, like, there's no no way there's no way he's doing this again not after Cleveland He's got a little chuckle face It's funny Jake and I have this joke When the seasons over with he passes me the ball and then when the season starts I pass him the ball back And so that would be a jk then how the fuck did Luca get traded it was during the season How did you end up with the ball back and so that would be a jq then how the fuck did luca get traded it was during the season How did you end up with the ball?

If it's supposed to be his team at that point You know, you just traded a guy midseason right like the main guy. It doesn't really hold here You got a settle down I'm still laughing over the J-Kid Niko joke. It must be a riot sitting with them at dinner. Dude, you know the other thing? Like these players they brought in for dinner. Did you think that was funny? Oh yes, I thought I was a funny...

The thing I was thinking last night when I was watching this, just getting blood boiling all over again, because the guy really makes Me want to hit him My thought is just like I'm not like the most Riz guy in the world don't have aura for days How did this guy swindle these fucking billionaires this guy is a total chud this dork I was thinking No charisma no aura at all. I was thinking about that too. This guy has no charisma, no aura at all. I was thinking about that too, walking around, like how many times have you had a boss

that you know just sucks, yet his boss, who's a bit removed from everything else, has no idea and in fact, kind of thinks he's the reason everything's great around here. I know you've had that. Yeah, and it's crazy because I just assumed. That's what this guy somehow has. He's like, no, we were in the championship last year.

Nico. You know, I'm trying to think of like- Nico. There's been executives before that I got hoodwinked by because they talked a bunch of analytic shit and they were like, you know, Sloan business or a sports conference II and I've been fooled but that how is that guy getting the ear of a guy who my understanding like owns the Chinese mafia through gambling and he convinces him with that with Patrick are you busy this afternoon I had an idea for a training but really

He's a he's a basketball player. He can handle the ball. He can shoot he can make plays for people. He's a good passer He's gonna be on the floor and the big thing is who can he defend and he's a great see he subteach tweets Luca the whole This whole press conference. He's sub tweeting Luca He's gonna be on the floor and the big thing is who can he defend and he's a great defender So I think you know positionally I think you're gonna see us play a different style of basketball With him and PJ on the wings. It is interesting. You're looking at his the roster construction and it's it is kind of zagging if the rest of the NBA is zigging right? Definitely. Yeah the last

two things I wrote were the last one was you got to play you got to play flag you got to plant your flag at guard especially with Kyrie out but then then the other one was, well they also just re-signed Gafford, which doesn't really make sense, but in their bizarro world it kind of does. They're just a weird team because Anthony Davis sometimes is going to have to be the only big out there, like a lone five. All right, well now there's Gafford.

And he's been very against that vocally. He's very against it, but sometimes they need it. All right, well now Lively Gaffer. And he's been very against that vocally. He's very against it, but sometimes they need it. All right, well now Lively who's a ascending all-star, he's on the bench. Gaffer's making 20 million. He's on the bench. You don't have any guards. Their roster's just very... It's huge, but the idea of them playing two bigs Washington flag and Kyrie, that will be fun. I will promise you that. It makes Kyrie's even back this year.

Go ahead. Post all star game. It makes you mad because in his mind trading Luca got them Cooper flag. Yeah. That he's going to get to that too. I think, or at least do you have the, we're going to, we're going to get, yeah. I've listened to the whole thing. He believes that I've said that for, since night of the lottery hold on let's hold yeah And then during his visit here. What was the most memorable part about getting to know him in person? Honestly, I think it's it's really the way people talk about him see and then he doesn't even answer this question either

It's just gonna be about how his coach loves him See and then he doesn't even answer this question either. It's just gonna be about how his coach Loves him and he talks about himself, but other people liked him and like it's nothing to do with getting to know him at all relationship guy This is where I need shoddy teammates will say I'm right here was competitive person the GM of the team. It's like he's not entitled So it's just like all the intangibles. See again, we're this is this is sub tweeting Luca. All of this. Most competitive person, the GM of the team. It's like he's not entitled. So it's just like all the intangibles that he has is what really gets me excited. Abby Jones, DLL Sports. Yeah, yeah.

Luca's entitled. This entitled little F who won't listen to me, the great Niko Harrison, who thinks that he should wait a little longer to make sure that injury is really healed so they can be ready for their playoff run. What an asshole. I got to get rid of this guy. He wouldn't listen to me. Basketball's Niko Harrison. Look it up in the encyclopedia. You'll see a picture

of me next to basketball. Like Jesus Christ. You know what's weird about him using the word entitled is I don't have a problem with Anthony Davis. I think in general NBA players are the talent. Most of the time they're bosses or morons. But if you were going to use the word entitled, like Anthony Davis's career would be it. Where you know, he just forced his way out of New Orleans and did bits while he was doing it and then you know, he played center in LA for a few years but was complaining about it the whole time, was complaining about it when he got traded, has made it known now, like no I'm a four that's pretty

entitled to me. Abbey Jones DLL Sports LeBron James was kind of saying how rare it is that a rookie gets to start his career with established Hall of Fame players how do you think this is going to accelerate his development in the NBA? I think it's actually awesome that somebody gets to like develop on their own time whatever that is And we have the support that we can allow him develop on his own time We'll be able to win when he's having good games and also win when he's not having his best That's a It's a bold statement I don't know if it's going to work out that way especially Especially with the roster right now. If you want to say, yeah,

but we're waiting for Kyrie again, when Kyrie returns, the Kyrie style of play, will it be exactly the same? I mean, I don't know. He is getting older. No, probably not. But I, uh, I don't know if they're going to be good because also they're now counting on Jason kid to be the one to mix this magic potion and make them a good team I think they whatever their over-under is right now. I will be taking the over Alright find that out Blake cuz I'll take the under right now. We're doing a bet right now for supremacy of the show doing a bet right now for supremacy of the show. Kind of building off what Abby said, it's a unique situation because number one picks

don't typically join a team that's in a win-now window. How do you see things going in terms of him being a focal point versus the you know kind of being their team yeah I think when you're when you really have a good culture I don't I don't think it matters like this is a I feel like this is more shots at Luca like somehow it's but culture and he's going to try and tell us how their culture so I don't think this is a shot at Luca by the way but I do think it is a shot at Tim McMahon or anybody who has said like, hey, it ain't good over there. Ah, okay. Okay.

Who's the focal point? Who's the guy? I think if you're just playing and everybody's focused on winning, then it just kind of like the ball is going to find people and you're going to play. When he came here, six guys took him out to dinner the second night, so I just think, you know, it's kind of unique for a team that didn't make the playoffs, and six of their players are taking the potential draft pick out to dinner.

So I think our culture's a lot stronger than people realize. Is that unique? I don't know I I don't know I don't know I don't I don't such a dweeb. I don't think it is You know, there were six people like, okay, dude It was three Ten I don't care like like where's everybody pissed when Zion was making this visit to New Orleans and did they not? Treat him well that you know when when there's like a consensus number one pick type thing?

He's reaching. So I don't worry about the focal point thing. I think it's just really, we're just going to play basketball. And as he develops, as he progresses, I think this team again, yeah, his cadence, one of the things that he did a workout while he was here, everything about Nico Harrison, PJ was there and I said, Hey PJ, you think you guys can play together? He's like, oh yeah, we can play together. So.

Oh, I guess everything's fine then. Yeah. We had some fun. We had some fun in the group chat last night. I'm like, okay, well like what's he going to say? Right. Like, well, we play the same position. He's probably bet like, and also I get the sense.

I don't know this. I'm fan-ficking here a little bit, but I get the sense that like, you know, Nico goes up and they're shooting or practicing, he's like, do you think you could play with this guy? Isn't he great? PJ's like, yeah, Nico, he's the number one pick. I can play, I don't know. I just feel like they're tired of him too.

You know what before We continue on because I the meat the really good stuff is coming up here in a second But we got to plug Trident One of our sponsors one of our awesome sponsors. Oh look at this. Let's see King of the seas and more. They fix your garage door. They always keep their calm. It's TXTridant.com. It's so bad. That's our website. TXTridant.com. Yeah, that's right. Trident's see. But I got a couple of emails already from people who have, did you see that? I did. People who have hooked up with Trident, gotten new garage doors, they love it.

We're not advertising any sort of discount here, but I have seen the discounts have been given to Dumb Zone listeners. I've had receipts sent to me. So you know, at TXTrident.com, tell the fellows that the dumb zone sent you. They'll help you garage doors, entry gate services, customer services, top notch with Trident, good dudes over there, veteran run company, 817-512-1212 for TXTridant.com. Tell Jeremy the dumb zone sent you.

Tell him you hate NACO. Maybe just because it was in New York, but Cooper got asked if he had assurances that Jason Kidd was going to be the coach next season. You obviously brought up J.Kidd just a second ago. But since it keeps being asked, since the rumors are still out there, just wanted to see if you can conclusively say that J.Kidd is going to be the head coach next season. Are there rumors still out there about J.Kidd? Apparently.

I thought I shut him down. He will be the coach next season. Are there rumors still out there about J. Kid? I thought I shut him down. I thought I shut him down. He will be the coach next year. I thought I shut it down. You know why people didn't know because the Mavs didn't say a goddamn thing for like three weeks. You were in hiding. No one said anything. There should have been an immediate statement that Jason Kid is our coach. He's under contract and of course he's going to be the coach, but there wasn't! No. And that's why this became a story. Haha, it's Jay Kidd, haha, that's so funny.

God, I hate them both! But I especially hate Nico. Just get rid of Nico, and I'll sign Kidd up to a lifetime contract. Like did you see the story that Sean Sweeney didn't want to leave Kid Staff. I mean, he's been with Kid for a long time. And the Mavs didn't match money in years, I guess, because he's still an assistant now in San Antonio. The reports where he wanted to stay, that everybody's bummed he's leaving.

But man, I don't think he's alone. I think Nico has attempted to, and maybe successfully for the moment, leapfrogged, leptfrogged Kid. As far as what? Power. Oh, I think there's no doubt about that. The interesting thing is that he still remains there, because he leptfro him to make that Luca trade.

Because certainly we don't like. I don't know. Yeah, that's the thing. You can't believe it. The thing these guys say, the whole organization. Hey, their lips are moving, they're lying. Grandpa. Nico over here.

You had mentioned in past press conferences about trades that you've made or deals that you had done to kind of win now But getting a player like Cooper I Would imagine changes it so how does it change your kind of operation moving forward in terms of how you see this team? Not only in the next year or two, but how you're gonna this is we're going to get to the Statement of the night. I think it's win now. It's also win in the future and we don't know when eventually it's going to be Cooper's team. We don't know when that when that transition will happen. So I think it's win now and then set yourself up to win in the future as well. It's coming. Niko right here. My name is Joey Mastrata

with Clutch Points. My question is, heading into the NBA draft lottery, 1.8% chance you guys win the lottery, what is your initial reaction? And just how surprised were you when you found out you guys won the lottery? Yeah, I was extremely surprised. All my draft prep up to that point was us being in the 11th position.

Number one, I'd like to see that. Let's see your notes. Let's see all the prep us being in the 11th position. So number one, I'd like to see that. Let's see your notes. Let's see all the prep you did for the 11th pick in the draft. All my draft prep up to that point was us being in the 11th position. So that's just, but things happen. Fortune favors the bold. So exciting, exciting things. That that is not how that works.

This yes, you're right. You said it immediately too when the trade happened. Yes, he's saying or maybe when the Cooper flag thing happened when you knew they'd get the number one pick. He's he is putting in his mind. I am bold, I made this move, and I'm rewarded for it. And you could make an argument. I wouldn't do it. But you could make an argument that Luca for Anthony Davis and Cooper Flagg is a fair deal. It's a more fair deal for sure because, and this is the big

problem with Anthony Davis, is the future. You got a guy that's ten years older than one of the other guys and heavily injury prone even when he wasn't this age. So that's the whole argument. That's why it's such a horseshit trade from the beginning, is that you're anyway. But yes. So I still wouldn't do that deal. I would not do Anthony Davis for Cooper Flag, because Cooper Flag is still a question mark.

I'm not positive. I'm positive about this guy and what he means to the city already, what he means to us, what we've already been through. Again, it's like when my wife first learned about it and she never watches any sports but she said, he brings so much joy to us. He brings joy to the city. He brings joy to those around him. Yes, just viewing him gives you a warm feeling. Sure. And he was R, he's R's our not this and Anthony Davis just sucked Anthony Davis is the impractical jokers Luca Donchich is I Can't see the boys or stranger things

So children's hospital, let's try to get something that we all love Is there anything is Is a big jugged... Is Sydney Sweeney? Yeah. No, but the thing, the brass taxes, they didn't trade Luca for Anthony Davis in Cooper Flag. They traded him for Anthony Davis, because that's who he wanted. And yeah, I think now he's the type of megalomaniac or just asshole like the universe rewarded me exactly who has you know you're you you

see everything through like you're the main character all the time so I'm not surprised that he thinks that at all you know I don't think it's all religious people I don't think it's just a religious thing I think this happens to I think not religious people do this as well. But I do know that him, he thinks from a, I'm rewarded by God for my struggles. But like, you know, to my recollection, like Job didn't murder his kids.

Job didn't really ask for it the way that Niko did. Yeah, like Job was like, why does this keep happening to me? Where it's like, he views himself in that way but it's i don't know maybe i gotta reread that book like just a couple more i'm not gonna play the entire press conference again like i played the first five minutes there just to uh show you how how mad i got throughout the whole thing but a couple more things it actually wasn't that long out the whole thing but a couple more things. It actually wasn't that long. No it's only 12, 13. Yeah but again this is the one that's going to come out of it

that. Fortune favors the bold. Unbelievable. What was this that I marked? Neekertz piggybacking off that. Are you hopeful, optimistic that by drafting Cooper some of the anger that had been directing it directed at you personally Will subside now? I I'm hoping so, you know, I'm assuming so a little bit maybe No, no, that's not no why would it that's a thing, okay So like if you're right because of the great move I made yeah, look at this cool pick I scouted this guy. I found your flag who else knew dude

Okay So like if you're the mafia or the cartel or the Taliban or whatever and you're gonna fuck people's lives up What you do is you like give them food and you like have a running water or their lights on or something You have to do something to try to be that like poor of a stewards of them. He's acting like he's giving us Cooper Flag because he took Luca away. The question is about, do you think people will chill out

now because you are drafting Cooper Flag? Well, they're only mad. They will. Why would I now be like, why they're mad is because of trading Luca. This doesn't address that at all. It's really weird to me that he's like looking down, like be grateful, be grateful of what I've done for you.

As an aside on the be grateful thing, my gummy thought watching the lottery last night was just Unless you believe it's rigged unless you believe that there's some sort of slide of hand going on with the accounting firm and the NBA I Know we all get it Where you get drafted matters a lot There's a ton of guys quarterbacks who would have had great careers if they'd been drafted to other teams. I'm sure of it. Do you know, Johnny, how lucky Cooper Flagg is to end up here instead of Washington or Charlotte from

just a how happy am I for the next 20 years of my life. I know he's gonna have all the money but that's already like you know that so what else well if you play for Washington probably Everything sucks all the time Probably Charlotte's not that far off a 1.8 percent chance that he ended up here which is to you know you got to give to them an which is to, you know, you got to give to them an extremely unique situation for a first overall pick to be going into. And this last cut.

He got very lucky. Is definitely subtweeting Luka. Nico, you talked in the past about having players who fit to the culture and having players who add to the culture. Can you talk about a way- It sounds like young, fake Peter King. Okay.

Are you with me on that? Let's see. Nico, you talked in the past about having players who fit to the culture and having players who add to the culture. Can you talk about a way or two you feel that Cooper adds to the culture and helps move it forward? I think the biggest thing is he's a two-way player.

That's my thing. When you the biggest thing is he's a two-way player That's my thing when you watch him play he plays hard That's not and culture guy that does that it makes basketball plays again, you know when you talk about like If that's okay, cuz he's a good player that adds to the culture. Okay. Well Again, that is both ways but he's tweeting he's subtweeting Luca throughout this thing and yes when he says he's quick answer is he's a two-way player that was the thing you said when he was going out the door yeah is that Anthony Davis is a two-way player he plays defense I know that's what wins championships because look behind me at

all the trophies I have yeah Kyrie Irving doesn't really play a lot of defense and clay Thompson. Oh my gosh I don't so the they we put clay fit on this team that one is very strange It doesn't you know why because he was acquired to play in a roster led by Luca He's probably thinking man if I had taken the Lakers offer I would now be next to Luka. Not even on the same half of the court as Luka. Like if Luka's over here you go stand in the opposite corner. Yeah we're kind of trying to get you out of the way as much as we can here Clay.

He started every game he was available in too. I forgot that for some reason that thought maybe there was a little bitch time now Interesting you undo viewer mail. Sure.

I love the tag Yeah, did you vote for this? Uh, that one I do vote on. Yeah, and I submitted that tagline from the end zone to the dumb zone Thanks. I Got one from Clark

I don't think this is the guy that saw Dan at the hardware store Because Dan did actually meet a listener at the hardware store when he was doing some hardware store walking. He he. But Clark emails, cause we'd also talked about my weight vest. And I told you, you know, for walking, you might as well.

If you're walking for half an hour, why not just get 25% more out of it? I put like a shirt on over it usually. But Clark says, you know, Dan with a weighted vest on at Home Depot these days may look... There's a tactical feel to the vest. And I think if you just showed up looking as Aryan as you do at Home Depot with a...

Why is that bad? That's not bad here in Texas. It's not... I'd be celebrated no i did but you may be right run away from you may that'll be perfect talking on the phone that's right because you're calling your mom about the weather in ohio yeah um oh jeff our good friend jeff frank uh wait did you know Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm So I'm telling you if you just go throw that many games you can probably clock something in the mid 200s

Just what that's high. Oh I don't hear mr. 277. Well, yeah, but if you're throwing a straight ball, there's like it's it's hard to throw 13 great balls it is that's why it's a numbers game You just bowl a lot. Like you've probably bowled over 200 a dozen times. Yeah, but I mean. I hate the way he said that. Yeah, I mean of course.

Yeah, I am. I'm Blake. Yeah. East Texas Paul says, he found out where Shodadi is getting his media advice from a movie called Zootopia. Are you familiar with Zootopia? Yes.

And he sent us a clip. Okay, press conference 101. You want to look smart, answer their question with your own question, and then answer that question like this. Excuse me, Officer Hopps hops what can you tell us about the case well was this a tough case yes yes it was do you see you should be up there with me we did this together well am i a cop no no i am not what can you tell us about the animals that went savage? Well, the animals in question... Are they all different species?

Yes. Yes, they are. He also says... That that movie sounds like trash? Well, it sounds like you haven't seen it, but Blake has yeah, you like it you can answer this question Paul says also where does officer hops rank among cartoon haunts? I mean I got I got sent this reviewer mail. Yeah That's a hot Fox no doubt fellas which It's implied right I mean

Fox can't be ugly. It's a fox. Right. Like, guys must have thought foxes were good looking in the past. That's a great point. Why would you say a fox is a good looking? There's no reason that it ever would have become a thing for women if there wasn't a guy who wanted to nail a fox. To bone a fox.

Yeah, looking at a bunch of animals there. God, that one does look a little different over there. There's a horse. That one, I could see it. There's a fox. Ooh. I mean, yeah, well, I mean, that's an interesting way to think about it. Looks like cute as a button.

You're looking at a button and thought, boy. Oh my god, look at that button. I'd love to do something to that button. Let's see here. Marcus says, I named both of my sons Marcus, which is my first name. Okay. Blake was talking shit about that. Tell him to have two sons, then decide if it's weird. Yeah, it didn't cross my mind for one second to name them both the same name. Yeah, no, that never...

Then he says full disclosure, it may have been out of laziness. Also my two girls have the same middle name. Laziness? It's not building a house. You just... I also don't think of myself as awesome enough to give him my name twice. Side note, my car got cheesed six months ago. Yes! While I was parked it was a nightmare to clean the melted cheese off. I office out of Grapevine. That's where the incident occurred. I honestly think there's a 25% chance Jake did it or it was one of his followers.

My followers. Yeah. My, my disciples. Your little army. Game day, maybe turning back the clock and you might be turning back into Richland Jake. So cheese is not out of your game. I did have an AR firing a dynamite the other day. Yeah. That's very funny. No I I can't imagine naming a kid the same thing twice or the same thing as me. So that's on the OJ book boy Jess Jess Walker hot name is that a dude is almost certainly a dude. Yeah, I've been careful about that one and he's a good dude Yeah, I

Want to think of it is like if Jess starts like DMing me and stuff Problem we're gonna have some you and me will have sex bro. I'm into it. Yeah, your name is Jess I almost showed up at Cassie's house. Yeah. I was like, hey, man. I was like, uh. Dear butcher of the beef curtain. Cass's spare apartment.

Gotta go delete all my emails. All right, it has to be asked plainly. Does Blake actually think OJ didn't do it? I mean, I get that he read that ridiculous book. Congratulations on your literary milestone. Man. But if he's seriously fuzzy on the case, he needs to carve out eight hours

and watch OJ made in America. It's basically required viewing for anyone with a fantasy football team and a shred of white guilt. If this book convinced him OJ's innocent, I suggest he slides into Casey Anthony's DMs next. They can discuss the dangers of being wildly misunderstood over dinner. More Kemp et al. More Julie Neverpunt from Jess.

Did he attach the audio of his segment breaking down who he thought was the case? If so I'd love to listen to it. Well you know he did tell you to just watch the OJ documentary. Yeah I'll carve out a third of my day to watch this documentary. We've all seen it, actually, I believe. And yeah, I think... The main thing to me about that situation was... It's enough of reasonable doubt, right?

The fact that they didn't talk to the sun at all is very glaring to me. And it would have been nice to be able to rule that out. Yeah, sometimes I think they do that. Just to check it off and say, just to show that we did it. That it wasn't in this case does give it some oxygen to me. The part that was really messing me up was the watch. The... you know... up was the watch. The, you know,

cause I don't know, like, okay, so they say her watch hit the ground and that's when it stopped. That's where the time was. Yeah, 9 59. Which would have been, OJ would not have been there at that time. It was on the phone. But like, in my head, I think, okay, well that makes sense.

Last night, I'll talk more about this tomorrow, the Karen Reed doc, well they had a piece of hair on a car, right, it was in a car accident. They towed that car in a blizzard for like two hours. And we're supposed to believe the hair was still there. After that. On the outside of the car? Yeah.

Oh. And everyone was saying like, oh, you know, obviously a piece of hair would have flown off the car. It's going 60 miles an hour. It's a blizzard. And like, yeah, intuitively you would think so, but I'm not a scientist. You know what I mean? I actually have no idea.

Maybe the force of the wind presses it against you. You never, like, left something on your windshield wipers before and gotten home and like, how is that still there? So I don't know, just stuff like that where you're like, oh the watch broke but can it move some after you fall type thing? Like they just sometimes put these pieces of evidence forward that at first glance you're like, well that's it.

And then also I don't know anything so Garrett writes about Whataburger have we mentioned we're going to be at Whataburger July 8th Tuesday July 8th never bad time we're giving away you know what I I'm gonna go in my car and get this. I think we're good for today, but. Oh, here it is. The Whataburger slash dumb zone car tray to celebrate 75 years in the biz. They're giving away 75 of these babies at the remote. And you have to eat 75 french fries to get one. You don't have to do anything, you do have to be there. You do have to eat 75 french fries to get one you don't have to do anything you do have to be there

you do have to be there or Be square okay That's some gold bro. I've got one from our couple in Alaska. Yeah who checked in on our musk ox Akadia And sent us a picture and found Acadia, took the tour, and says she's doing great. Is this the one, so this is what Plashley bought us, right? Yes, Plashley, as closing remarks gift,

bought us a Musk Ox in Alaska. And Christian took his family, took a tour, and said Acadia's doing great. Yeah, and he rolled on some audio, and I was going to play it. I've got it. OK. I couldn't find, like, a clear part,

but I do want to talk about it. I want to play one just little part, because it's tours being led by some chick, and of course, none of our people can just let someone do their job easily and tries to turn it into a ghost tour laugh. They're only about 15 to 20 pounds when they're born. They look like little boxes hopping around. Eastport-cent.

You can tell. Okay so I want people to start thinking of this. If you're in a situation where you know you're going to be on one of these tours, start rolling. Start rolling. Because the worst thing, especially if you're me or Blake or Dan, when you roll too late, like I had a situation yesterday at the dance show off thing where I'm, fuck, if I wish I had rewind life 20 seconds. Oh yeah.

What this lady just said was hilarious, but me telling it, not so much. That's why we gotta roll it all, we gotta be like a, a cyber truck. Recording at all times? Yeah. Yeah. So we're just- I never got to Garrett's Whataburger point. Oh. Oh. I never got to what, I I so that's the musk ox is from

Plashley. Oh, so I give these these are also from plashley. These are Luca socks mad socks I've given away every maps thing I have So I figured we just keep these in the den Okay, we actually cuz what a burger gave us some socks. I know we're gonna keep socks I got yo, Kiero socks. I'm up here for den attendees for for Andrew den attendees Although did you think I was a puss because the water burger guys are here yesterday I didn't tell anyone to take their shoes off. Yes. I thought you were puss and yes I would have done the same thing and knew you were going to do just that

They were like big wigs with the company. You got caught hard. I was like, you know what? I'm not gonna ask. I really, do I even care? I've lived here 10 years. Mr. Burger, can I shine your shoe? Garrett's point was, he says, how do the people at Whataburger feel about Jake calling them Water Burger water burger do you say water burger don't know Garrett's up your ass here bro what are you gonna say to him I love you I'd love to see you kick his ass are we doing it at fight night yeah man I'd love to fight fight night do you think they'd let you I do not what's your fight that seems discrimination that was rock I've got one from Clayton. I want to fight somebody I could easily beat so like

a child ladies old ladies working Do you think Dan would have an easier than this is not it's not really funny anymore cuz Dan's in shape. Oh, yeah, bro but do you think Dan would have a better chance against a super jacked male little person or a pretty jacked female 85 year old? 85 year old. Or do you think just the physics of it? She's bigger. She's not huge, but I'm gonna say she's like 85 though 75 Oh, you just dropped 10 years off it. Well, I'm reading the market here right we get our yeses and nos 75 I still think any 75 year old woman you could just kick the living piss out of anyone

Spash even the toughest 75 year old woman you grew that pulling her head up So all of her friends at Keno can see is just mashing her face into the pickleball court Like what's your first move with the little dude? Are you just kicking at it? Well? Yeah, dude First move is you're gonna be like whoa Back it up running around But it is the length advantage is is what I'd have to Yeah, but at some point. He's just gonna be like a little bull rush. Yeah super coordinated dogs. Yeah, no That's why I gotta go the lady and then who knows maybe me and the lady just it's possible

But again into it. That's how I'll beat her with my charm Disarm her yeah subduer before know it, we're just doing it. Dude, you would too with little Michael McDonald or some Yacht Rock or something. She's like, all right, let's relax together. Mine from Clayton is something about Madden. And we're two weeks away from the new NCAA, which I'm very stoked for.

The new Madden has potential because Madden is gonna lose the exclusive rights to be the only NFL video game this year, so they're putting a lot more. Oh dude, they are just throwing everything they have at the wall. This was so good back in the day. It was like nine, eight, nine came out live, whoever was making, well live was in beat.

Yeah, NFL fever was good, 2K was great. We had a really good run for a while. So Madden is doing their best to keep the lives. Wait, who's making the other one? Do you know? For what? If there's gonna be another NFL game, do you know who's making it if it's not EA?

I would imagine 2K gets back into it, but I don't know. But one of the signing points for Madden is true to life gameplay, yada yada, coach DNA informed by real NFL coaching trends. Madden NFL gameplay is built from Sundays. Clayton points out, we haven't quite seen the tendencies of Shoddy. Maybe the new Madden will have the players break out into a ping pong tournament during the game.

Yeah. Or you could see him at dinner with one of your favorite players. Buying, yes, buying the meal. And then- Yes, he's buying. He's got the Cowboys credit card. Yes, it says Jerry Jones on it. My last one is a bad beat.

This from Ryan. And Jake, you may have played this game before, but Ryan said that a really bad beat of his was the BMX Triple X game. That sounds familiar. Who's cover is on your screen now. Oh yeah! Yeah. And just a really hot female undershirt,

really tiny pink shorts. They have her nipples showing for some reason. But he said the bad beat actually came in the game whenever you, so to speak, put in the cheat codes and unlocked all of the naked cyclists. So put up the second picture. They would just have a tits out. And I don't know.

I just found one. Doing handlebar tricks. Yeah, I just up the second picture. They would just have a tits out and I don't know I just found handlebar tricks. Yeah, I just found one that with that car She's I don't know writer innovation, but it just had a you could just bike with a naked female. Yeah, you just This is prime like go Fulfills your Lara Croft fantasy. Oh, definitely. Yeah, you got box go back go back You go back to the cover. This game came out when I was in high school. And this is the type where you go to Blockbuster with Chappy, and you're all three walking around,

and you just walk by, and he happens to have that one. He's just kind of looking over his glasses. I went, what are you doing in the video game section? What is this one? Turn section. What is this one? Turn there. What is this one? You're an old man put it down. Yeah, those are the days for sure. Oh, yeah All right got any gummy thoughts. Oh Does it be brought to us by?

not a wizard I had the one the other day, I told you guys, somebody at one point said something to me about like, one thing that bothered them about America is that in all of our pride, we sometimes won't take stuff from other countries that's good, because we're like, oh, it's theirs. You know, like, ideas, you know know, were resistant to things like nationalized healthcare or whatever. Or the other way, like for me, there are, or let's say in general, people might say that America's got a little bit of an authoritarian bent right now. There

can be fun things about authoritarianism. Like I said, every city should have a set of colors for their sports teams and it should be mandated. I think the government should be way more involved in uniforms. Flat out. In sports uniforms. Yeah. Okay. I think it's a sort of thing that if you, and like I'm only sort of kidding, because other countries do actually do. In Japan, they have like campaigns where each pro, not province, but like small cities or whatever, will like have a mascot competition. Where they create a mascot that represents

the values of that. They do a lot more like city to city competition shit. And I feel like in Europe, in particular, they only really have one sport that they're really stoked on. Their basketball teams will wear the same colors and be called the same thing as their soccer teams. But over here, we got like three or four of them. I think it should be uniform. So you must love South Lake. And I think they should also well that you know what it does because every I don't love Oh, I hate it the Dragons, but it makes me hate it what I don't have is no reaction to it you know what I mean because

They generate passion I think the divisions it's gonna get a little tricky because Right now we have an uneven number of teams across leagues. But after my second term in office, there will be the same number of teams in all four sports, the same cities, the same divisions, and that's it. We'll have an even distribution. There'll be 30 cities that have teams and we'll play you'll have so you're not gonna have a city with just a basketball team no more that will no longer exist hmm but you'll have so do we put these teams in San Antonio or do they lose their team uh there can be yeah we're gonna have to get tricky like the Saints are probably going to San Antonio type thing or or you're gonna have to get creative regionally

how many probably gonna have to not exist how many cities do have uniform I can only think of Pittsburgh Seattle kinda has it and it feels very Pacific Northwest the Cascadia with the Seahawks and the Mariners, and I believe hockey now, right? Yeah, the Kraken changed to that. It's the same colors, so. Now, Will, the Grizzlies and the Titans are pretty close. The Grizzlies and Titans, that is sort of,

that's a good one, but it, that falls squarely into the 90s colorways and basically just if your city got two expansion teams you were gonna get two colors like that because if you look at any color of the expansion teams in the 90s they're all that same non-primary I don't even know what they're called but it's the diamond backs it's the rays it's the diamond backs. It's the rays. It's the Grizzlies. It's the old Raptors It's the Titans It's the say Jaguars Jaguars that color that shit is disgusting

And we need to fire it into the Sun and just treat it like it was a bad trend But the Grizzlies just ended up it was a bad trend but the Grizzlies just ended up having two teams that moved there in the 90s so they got two awful color palettes. So in these sports mandates that you are going to institute. These are definitely gummy thoughts too by the way. Yeah yeah in your second term are you going to have, you think the billionaire owners should spend their own god damn money to build their stadiums? Yeah that's right. Our owners should spend their own goddamn money

Stadiums All right fellas, let's take a break, okay Is somebody in there? Sir, can you hear me? Yeah, I hear you. I don't know if I'm okay. Can you get out for me? I'm hurting. Let me get my phone. I gotta call somebody. Alright. We're calling L.A. Before you call the insurance company, call Frankel first. Frankel & Frankel. Call 214 or 817 all threes.

Huh. Hello friends, Jake Kemp. Hello, I did hear. Okay. Okay? Blake will cut that out. You're listening to The Dumb Zone. Or will he? You cannot trust Blake. That Dumb Zone, or excuse me, that Whataburger remote that we're going to do, the 8th, at El Dorado in the Toway is that Luca Day? No. I thought Dallas did Luca Day on 7-8. 7-6. Oh. Why would... I know the shooting was on 7-7. No, it's because it that that is taken Okay, so I thought they just did it the next day you're saying they did before we on that day

On Friday Dan, out at Possum Kingdom Lake, which was actually where the wife was over the weekend. You know that they've glowed up Possum Kingdom? What do you mean?

They have like a resort there. Like a legit, I think the ticket campground might have been there. Okay. It's like a nice, sick, on the water resort. The other thing they have out there is... They've done everything at the ticket since we left they do the indoor events now They do go to the awesome place for the campout. We were like intense. We were outside. I was outside with the bugs I know and the elements

Like back in my day. I had to walk to work. Yeah now people are driving to work I think they kind of like pay producers now, too They're doing podcasts Crazy. In fact, I have got I forgot in viewer mail getting a lot of viewer mail about The ticket doing a podcast and I've decided I will address this On tomorrow's episode a paid episode want it to be behind a paywall. Wow. If you want my exclusive thoughts on what I think about the ticket-allowing podcast

now for their host and promoting it, you will hear that exclusively tomorrow, not today. You couldn't pry it out of me today unless I was I was trying to muster up a fart and I was just gonna fart into my headset and say that's my response can you muster a fart I honestly I was about halfway there and thought this could go could be a poop yeah Yeah. Then you know, you know. Time to call off the dogs there. So back to Possum Kingdom. They have a resort there. It's nice. They also

play a lot of youth baseball out there. You guys know that Rockin' Bee place or what's it called? Do you know about that? I don't. There's a place out there where Rocker B Ranch. We did a story on it once, but it's like the most over the top youth

baseball and softball like they've got 20 field. It's luxury. They got a water park. I really they might have a hotel. OK, dude, I'm talking. I think we have talked about it, haven't we? This place is insane. Cool place for tournaments. It's THE place.

Yeah. John Rocker owns it? Yeah. It was a late career... late career shift for him. Were you surprised to see that he hopped on Twitter like he's like the new... OJ? What was he talking about there?

He's like for chilling. Nah, that was called off. I I know I think it was fake. John Rocker. College World Series or something. Who's the guy with... Chipper Jones is... Real hardcore right-wing. Baseball? Help me. Trying to remember. San Francisco Giants. Aubrey. Brandon, not Brandon, Aubrey Hough. Aubrey Hough. Yeah. Played with I, intern Carlos. He was on his high school team or something. Back to Possum Kingdom. Sorry. Oh yeah, baseball conference.

John Rocker. Rocker's got some nom-donny thoughts. Oh, wow. He wants to weigh in on the Democratic primary in the New York City mayoral race. What does he do? Well, for New York, did hot sports opinions that's where John Rocker made his name yeah he put a whatever you call it on the Statue

of Liberty what Dana's asked what it what it is oh the thing that covers your whole body but not your eyes that's a good one. All right. Yeah So out at possum kingdom there was a family visiting for baseball youth baseball They went down to a beach area at possum kingdom at one point. She realizes wedding ring off It had fallen into the lake The ring was from 1910 I think the ring was from 1910. So she was really old. Yeah, and I think she was an old bride too, so she was 167.

Nice. So did you know they have just a, you can call something Blue Diver Search and Recovery was called in to join the search. It's 100 by a 100 by 50 foot area. So they say, but I mean, it's a lake. I wonder what that costs to call them in. I would love to know.

Certainly it's not just taxpayer money paying for that, right? I don't think so. No. Because I don't think so. Like if it was a dead kid or something, you'd probably like okay You would County will pay for that one you would acquiesce I'd be gradually Allow them to search for the kid although I

Mean if you know the kids in there what was the point of just getting the kid out? So this dude from the dive team goes back out there Monday when the water is calmer He finds the ring And like possum Kingdom is not Grand Cayman. That water. Yeah, that's amazing. I don't have any idea how you pull that off. Especially a couple days later.

Maybe you have like a metal detector that you can use underwater. That is not. The worst idea you've ever heard. No, I don't think. Not the worst. You still ever heard no, I don't think not the worst You still see people doing that man When I go down to Galveston still still hits

Looking for a nice Like a little metal detected on you not shocked but also why Just learned how when I was a kid with my grandma and uncles. Well I learned how. I could probably pick it up without being taught. Yeah, you're not a native wind whisperer. They've got a fucking contraption you use. But you learn the different tones and like what that tone means. It's like, oh, that tone is like aluminum can.

I don't need to dig that up. Okay, so is it sound wait is that what is it so it picks up off the type of metal it is and it sends a tone like a higher pitch tone or a lower pitch tone and you can look on the metal detector and it'll kind of give you a gauge but you kind of learn over time all right that's a aluminum can I don't really need to dig that's probably not worth you know but then I've also dug up coins and stuff like that so yeah there's there's an art to it Jake and I've enjoyed many a afternoon doing it what's the coolest thing you ever found just

like some old like regular American currency from like the 40s you know those cans that doesn't seem like that long those cans you could end up getting 15 20 bucks off wet and wild yeah what if you found a lone star awesome did you just hear him say that yeah I felt like the old like you found a Lone Star beer from a hundred and forty years ago. You may You may the first Lone Star ever made We stay in Texas speaking alone star. Oh look our sit-in cracking a nice Lone Star Yeah, bet your buns Thursday is so basically the weekend, especially when it's afternoon. Yeah We knew he was getting a red can right? This is not that guy does not

This is not the day for the blue. I want full in it. Yeah, I told when you were downstairs I was like God man Blake just wants to see one of these guys pull from the guard position and dig out of my back DB what do you say? all right, this will be the the Houston video Clayton, so Alright, this will be the Houston video Clayton. So this is one that came across the social media timeline and then went and found the news story in Houston at the Galleria, their Galleria, very nice, massive, much like here. There was a theft Sunday afternoon and I believe that it was eyeglasses that this guy was trying to steal. But when the police pursued him, he jumped from the second floor of the mall.

So let's play this Clayton. I think there's some sound of people that were maybe trying to watch it. I ain't gonna keep plugging them. Stop playing with. So this is the thief. And he was posting as he was headed to go steal a pair of glasses. Now you can see him running here and at the bottom floor of the Galleria, you're gonna have an ice skating rink. Which he just jumped in. Oh no! He break his ankles? Ankle. Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo want to feel bad for him but they're gesturing down at him in a real like well what you think

move his legs are broken but he's not writhing around in pain he's probably on Instagram he is updating the grams just accepted defeat so bad yeah second level dacked himself got open to cramp. Yeah, let's run this back. OK, yeah. So if you guys pick him up at first, he's running, I think. You'll see him from the police. And then at some point, just decides, yeah, now he's over

here. He's over here to the right of the screen if you're watching. You can probably see through his leg over. And that is, for reference, you could see a skater below him like how far down It's dummy Dumb in that sense, but like dumb in the sense of what was gonna happen next? Let's say he did land softly He's still in the mall. He's going to get caught. He's not only in the ball It would have been funny if he landed softly and then tried to start running just peeled out

the ball it would have been funny if he landed softly and then tried to start running just peeled out but if it was a ball pit yeah you're surrounded Sunday afternoon yeah what are you doing and he's just chillin like, that didn't work. Oh, those kinda look like blood. So you just drag him off, like, skate him off? Now do you think? I just pull him? He's immediately on his phone. Since I'm so worried about our tax dollars these days,

so do our tax dollars pay to fix his legs, or is that on his personal insurance? Since he'll be like- Tax dollars are paying for some of that, for sure. So that is a way, if you are poor, and you can't afford health insurance. You can probably break your own legs. If you jump, yeah, onto an ice rink at the Galleria.

Oh, wow, you found a cancer diagnosis while I'm here. Well, I'm in prison. Now I can get my, because I'm sure they'll give you great treatment if you're in prison. Concierge. Cancer treatment. Top to bottom. It'd be cool if the stars girls just came out there and swept him off.

The big shovel, yeah. Zamboni. Everybody starts throwing hats on the ice. So weird. All right. So I found this headline intriguing, because we know that our governor, Governor Greg Abbott, has been embattled politically. Shout out to Brian Curtis for an only in journalism word. He had the THC veto to deal with,

then Dan Patrick's talking shit coming for his throat the next day Which is why I find it funny that his next order of business Was creating a task force to battle something called screw worms Which are apparently a massive threat to livestock and cattle in the state of Texas. The New World screw worm was eradicated from the United States in 1966. But in 2024, the parasite moved through Central America and established its presence in southern Mexico leading to concern it could end up in Texas. So these again, porous borders, immigrant strain of worm.

Write this down on things that are back. Yeah. So now, well, this might've been Biden. I don't know, but because he was letting through. Yeah. And I mean, I'm joking, but it is crazy that the government ate like the state body. How was it eradicated back then?

Vaccine. Vaccine. Was it a vaccine? Let's see. That's a good question I should have asked. And just do it again. Uh, using a sterile insect technique? So just make them not be able to repopulate I guess?

Yeah, I mean, again, we're way out of our... We release sterile male screwworm flies in this province to create a biological barrier. It's like an oxymoron. It's hardcore, man. That's great. It is, but I just think it's funny that when you think about government and you think about policy, primarily the politicians you know the names of, they're just posturing on television for the hot button issues.

But a big part of it is, man, we got a worm in Mexico that might wreck the cattle for this season, do untold damage to businesses. And again, not to make it political, but that is the sort of thing that when the government is doing science, doing science that's what it's for I think that's yeah tends to be yeah and it's not always like there's really no profit on it right until you need yeah there to be here like a charity bowling tournament got a tip apparently a friend

of ours has a friend who owns a bowling alley in Plano and is ready to welcome us. So we got to hook up for a bowling tournament. I'm down. They'll drive east. These guys look like they would bowl. Oh yeah. You'd be there right? Oh absolutely.

Yeah. Hell yeah. Bowling out. I hate to see him coming. You'd bowl a 90? Yeah I'm terrible. All gas, no brakes, straight gutter balls. You'll still be there though? Yeah.

Okay. Especially if they have the radar gun up on the screen. Exactly. See if we can, how hard we can throw that thing. Yeah. Couple red cans. Mm-hmm. Break a little personal record.

This is a story that happened in Fort Worth that has recently gained new life online. Because do you guys remember, or maybe you're aware from your own algorithms, there's a certain type of lawyer who loves TikTok and Twitter specifically. And they do bits, they're gonna give you tips on how to avoid the DUI or a search this weekend.

But they'll also put out, you know, like warning more serious type videos. There's a law firm in Fort Worth. And they have two clients from Houston who were visiting downtown Fort Worth for a business conference. They were at the Fairfield Inn on Houston. Or is it Houston?

So this week the attorneys released the footage from this case and it is a man walks to the front desk and says that he's married to one of the two ladies. Now he had seen these ladies like outside the hotel. And he apparently said, I'm married to the redheaded lady who just was up here. She gave him the room number. He went to the room, knocked on the door, this is like 2 o'clock in the morning. Nobody answered. He went to the room, knocked on the door, this is like two o'clock in the morning. Uh, nobody answered.

He went back down, said, Hey, this is the, that room, that's my wife. She's asleep. I need to get in. They let him in and he sexually assaulted one of them while the other one was able to escape and get help. And this, uh, hotel is being sued, obviously, for everything. And this attorney, though, is putting this video out to say, like, hey, you know, this is an industry problem.

This is something that if you work in the service industry or the hospitality industry, you should know this is a problem. But it's creepy, dude, because, like, you can just say just walk him and it's especially the fact the guy like wasn't deterred like that it didn't work and he's just like what if I get him to let me in yeah it's incredible it's insane actually the part I didn't read of this story is the amount 250 K each and damages that seems low. Yeah way low especially one of them actually got touched

51 year old Dallas letter carrier sadly passed away over the weekend on the job due to heat exhaustion Feels like it's the I think I would actually love that job Mm-hmm, and I think you would love love that job not walking though I think all three of us would like it now get your steps do they ever side and they don't ever seem pissed off My my male people are cool. They must have changed them Because when I was a kid that was going postal was the thing they would say. Right. Like guys would shoot back then we didn't shoot up schools. Right. Got a little more dignity. Shot up post offices. Yeah.

And apparently like cause the deadlines, it was just tough to get everything sorted and blah, blah, blah. I don't know. Yeah. I know Brunig is a big fan of the post office. Well it runs sneakily well. It is. If you think about it. It's crazy how efficient it is.

Yeah. And that's Brunig's thing is, because everybody will start screaming the word socialism. Maybe that New York mayor guy, right? He's not the mayor, he's just the candidate. Right. But like, oh you don't want, I don't ever go to a grocery store that's run by the government. Well, they do a pretty good job

with the mail. Like, maybe you should try it. Yeah, I mean, my thing is always, and I get that it's different, but like, I feel like, don't feel like a socialist when I call the fire department. When my house is on fire, I'm like, well, I pay these taxes. Everyone just gets the service. Yeah, that's the thing. I do think health care should be under there. But, I don't know. And I only think that because health care just is a beating to deal with, man. That's something you don't get told. It's a beating to deal with, but actually that's kind of a pretty kick-ass business model to be like what

if you'd rather be dead then deal with us like it's well then you're subject to the terrible business model of the the mortuary reason it's all bad, dude It is all bad, you know I did I did I think I have a problem I talk more that now that I'm sober like I'm more interactive with people and I asked the lady at my eye doctor who owned the place Cuz I so you're turning into chappy not quite hola sit down in a Mexican restaurant I I can't rule it out, but it's not happening yet No, but we had talked to somebody who had told us that they were they knew somebody in like the eyewear game And they had told me like hey the place you go that's owned now by like Berkshire Hathaway and it had been purchased during the time that

I've been a patient because I was bitching like it sucks now like I feel like it used to be a smaller type shop oh you were saying my old HVAC company might be yeah and I actually John Oliver also just did an episode on that but I don't know I was talking to the lady I'm like her she kind of lit up and I was like oh I heard it's kind of different she was like oh is that what you mean you can tell yeah it sucks I was like yeah you guys this you knew it sucked yeah yeah but also she was like I'm old I'm out of the game on like trying to change things or whatever and then but yeah then we didn't bone but she blew me right there

whoa yeah right there and had her do the little eye puff thing on my wiener do you wear contacts yeah they don't do the eye puff thing anymore by the way no no I've recently been to the eye doctor yeah no more puffs might have had a Persian I died it was great I don't know what you do and I did again I think the point missed earlier you do know Persian Indian not the same quite different Indian I don't know that much darker so like the woman you're seeing that you've been reporting back to us on, collection of women, they're almost certainly Indian. I don't know

that you would give a clock a Persian right away. They're darker than me. Which is like every other person in the world. That is true. There's your news, Dan. We have a phone call to make. We do? Well we can, and we do need to talk about it. You're the whitest person I've ever seen unless you're watching the documentary about the Boston police officer killed in a small town in Massachusetts. I just started that, the Karen Reed thing. In which case you may.

Here's proving I'm not that white. Look at my, I got a great tan line. Look at how, there you go. Isn't that amazing? Holy God, dude! Yeah, isn't that kind of amazing? I've been doing a lot of walking. Yeah? Look at how 10 how there you go in that only God, dude Amazing I've been you know doing a lot of walking Yeah, and so when you look at me without me taking off my sock you're like wow he looks really white no No, this leg is not really white. It's exactly like big Jim. That is really white being fed dance gonna be on feet binder now

So if you're making a call before you make a phone call, or while you make a phone call. I have to tell you this. My dad texted me, and he doesn't. Just let me handle it, OK? We're calling Chappie? Yeah. OK. There was some stuff I wanted to talk to him about that he

doesn't want to talk about. Can it be brought to us by Frankel and Frankel? Of course. Personal injury attorneys? 8174 333 3333 the Frankles are your first call to make sure you're okay first if you're involved in an accident or you're personally injured but then they're wrong maybe what that guy you off when that guy landed on the ice he just picked up his phone and he started dialing because he saw my legs are broken

yeah this ice should have been softer i was told it was water there's we could run the video again i didn't see a sign that said no jumping to the ice right so you call franklin now they may end up saying look dude i think uh this is frivolous and I can't take this case but if anybody but can see merit and get you what you deserve if in fact you do deserve anything it is the Frankles yeah so you start you start you dial on the phone or what are we doing here how long do you want to start like today in history or something I don't know it's just add him whenever yeah okay ha god it's so funny to the way that the guy's legs go out like different ways for a I could start with your male birthdays then

On this day, the toothbrush was invented. What year would you guys say maybe the toothbrush would have been invented? Now, I will tell you, there was at one point in the world other cleaning tools like chew sticks that existed in ancient civilization. So we haven't totally ignored our dental hygiene for our entire existence on the earth. But in years that we measure... I'm gonna say 1865. That the Civil War did not see a toothbrush. Give me 1890.

Josson, do you want to play? Mmm. 1901. Yeah, 1901. That's my guess. 1498. No! We're playing fast and loose with what is a toothbrush. In China.

Using boar bristles attached to bone or bamboo handles. Can I just say something about how I view the world through a western lens? Thought we did it. Well not only did I think we did it, when I was playing history back in my head, I forgot China existed. Completely. Yeah, they did like gunpowder and stuff, right? Yeah.

I was thinking about Europe and China's got a whole thing going on over there. Yeah. On this day in 1963, President Kennedy visited West Berlin. He delivered his famous speech, expressing solidarity with the city's residents, declaring Ich bin ein Berliner, to which with the city's residents declaring Ich bin ein Berliner, to which many people to this day will say that he kind of did the subject verb thing and slang wrong and he said, I am a jelly donut.

Look it up. I said look it up. Damn, man. On this day in 1974, the supermarket price scanner made its debut in Troy, Ohio. Detrex, you like being able to scan your stuff now? I hate doing it myself. You know you got to pick up the thing now?

At some places, they won't let you just the gun Yeah, yeah, I don't like the gun um Brooks does Let's make him do it. I hate doing it. I do think it's taking our jobs I especially hated at Central Market because I used to love to go to the I'm only buying a few items I go to this the quick aisle, but the only thing at the quick aisle now is the The six count and they have one lady standing there to help you through there. What's she doing? How's your guy Xander? I haven't seen him in months. Did you know I think he was I think he got stolen away right away, right ice Potentially, but I would have petitioned to keep him here for sure for his unbelievable grocery skills.

But he's probably scanning in the big city now. Yeah. You know? Maybe on a private jet or something he's doing the scanning up there. Just somewhere. Did you watch baseball yesterday? I didn't. It's pretty cool.

I know. I'm going to watch some of it later. I'm not going to try to say the guy's name, because I don't want Jared to make fun of me. But Paul Skienz V. Mizorowski. He was badass. Sorry, Jared. You're watching that when we had a perfect game going?

I actually didn't watch the Pirates at all, but I saw a five minute thing of it. But yeah, I watched Jason Pettit de Grom. Yesterday afternoon. He was, dude, here's the thing about watching de Grom. The game is over very quickly. Throw it on and you're six innings in, an hour and ten in. Now the rest of it?

You don't know. Did you drive here on Dove Road? Uh, yeah. Is that how you drive here here do you go to the highway well today i was coming from carter's school but i still put me on both so speaking to see what else is taking our jobs so certainly these computers are scanning things taken our jobs now we're doing it

so it took the jobs of people and then gives us more work to do i'm uh... heavily against it. Heavily against all of it. But on Dove, at least this was yesterday. Did you drive there? Oh no, you weren't here. Yeah, you were. They have, they now have, they've taken the jobs of the traffic construction flag waivers. There used to be two dudes that would have a job because of the traffic construction that's going on for a little bit and you know one dude might hold the sign that says stop and then he turns it over slow and then or the flag waiver whatever they now have that automated. They have the one on Dove Road yesterday. Did you have to sit and wait in a 20 car line?

Yes. And then this thing, it's just like the thing you go in and out of a garage. Yeah. And so you just sit there and wait. I did used to think that guy would cause me to think, because you'd sit there and you're staring at him and he's just staring and it's hot.

But you're like, it doesn't look that bad. And I think those guys make decent money. I'd always get my oh, yeah I've been thinking about his life. I'm in this or not like well I think you got a better I would think you got a better gig than the guy in the hole over there who's like digging You're standing there with a flag although. Maybe they're like yeah make You know Steve I'm gonna give him a name he makes more in the hole and also maybe everybody's like put the bitch guy up there you may

be looking at the bitch and you don't even know it you're looking at that guy like oh right guy works outside he's a man not like me he's tough but everyone he works with thinks he's gay on this day in 2015 Richard Matt was shot and killed by authorities in a wooded area. That's Dan Amora is it not? He was one of the two convicted murderers who escaped from the Clinton Correctional Facility. Blake did you ever watch that show? No. It is a hundred percent worth your time and I think you specifically for some, would love it. I heard very good things about it.

And I mean, I don't know how much he had to do with it. But I think that was Ben Stiller's first big direct tutorial thing. So as you see in Severance, he's great. And one famous wedding on this date, I only note it for, well not just because I feel like Saroy kinda knows Don Johnson, but Don Johnson married Melanie Griffith on this day in 1989.

But the big note is, it's for the second time. So they had been married before, they got divorced, they did some stuff. I just It's always in very interesting to me. Yeah got a buddy whose parents did it yeah, yeah It's I wonder if he's happy like at first when you're a kid and your parents get divorced you're upset So would you be happy if five years later they got back together? And you had seen your mom just running dudes in, left and right. Oh, I'm sorry Clayton, I messed the camera up.

Justin, can you grab that off my sock? It's not supposed to. The Velcro stuck to it. I think if there was clear separation, then probably a lot of kids are like, actually I was over this. But what usually I think happens is you kind of stay, maybe bone every four or five months

and you see, you're never really fully off it. I think. Other birthdays today we have JJ Barea, 41. Rudy Gobert, 33. Wait, this bear's mentioning, her first marriage to Don Johnson was less than a year? And her second marriage was 13 years later? That's like a way different deal. That's like what the guy was talking about yesterday. Reuniting the fling.

Alright, sorry, go ahead. And then they got divorced again? Yeah, but that time they made it a decade Antonio Banderas Chad Pennington is 49 yes he's Shannon sharp is 57 you'll have sex on you. Michael Vick is 45. Coach? Yeah. I can't remember. He had been coach of a team before.

Right? Is this a joke? A dog fighting game. Yeah, a video game. He's a coach at Norfolk State. Hey, close that door. And go put that dog down. Greg Lamond is 64. US Bicycling Hall of Famer. Now how full can that be? You got to think about it. I know. Is it just every kid who learned? when I was uh in college a

they had a bike race for some reason scheduled in our town and in Athens, Ohio and Greg Lamont was gonna be racing so I went and Stood in a one spot and saw Greg Lamont drive by. Kind of rode a bike by and Oh, there he goes. Five inductees this year into the Bicycling Hall of Fame. Also, if you'd like to rent the Hall of Fame for your next event, click here. Host your next meeting, party, or gala.

Where is it? At the Bike Hall of Fame? In Davis, California, the United United States bicycling all of fame? It's where we're having a Christmas party. What was his name Matt Haro? Like can you name another well Lance Armstrong and Greg Lamond those are the only ones I could name American bike racer. No, I don't know any racers I was thinking of the freestyle guys Ryan Nyquist yeah there you go right like was the game yeah Derek Jeter 51 so overrated that that Hoffman that's the one I was trying to think of. Nick Offerman, 55.

Jason Schwartzman is 45. Man, he's had a cool career. How much you know about him? I don't know a lot about him, but I do love... He's a Wes Anderson muse, obviously. Yeah, I know he's on board with Tim and Eric Yeah, he's been in some bits with them and I love it. He was in gemstones Yeah, he was also the drummer for Phantom Planet which was like they got really big

I went saw him they open for Incubus It's like that feels like the shortstop quarterback best- looking kid thing. You can't be on the TV show and the band. Actor Sean Hayes is 55. He's the one on the Smartless podcast that you don't understand why he's on there. The one from Will and Grace? Yeah.

Yeah, that's a tough listen. That's not for me, folks. Smartless? Yeah. Yeah, that's a tough listen. That's not not for me folks smartless. Yeah Yeah, same I tried they had somebody recently oh That was probably why it was fine, but I'm I'm not speaking of Shane Do you see No You did espies. He's hosting the SBs, bro.

I thought there's no way. Are they letting him go? This is 100% the Trump era. That's what that is. You're not getting that otherwise. Are they going to let him be funny? Because the last guy that was funny hosting the ESPYs was Norm MacDonald. So I'm not as long time of a Shane guy as some others. But I don't think there is a chance in hell that he's doing anything other than like exactly what he wants. Dude, he just called Saban like a cheater on game day, like with him sitting there. I call the national championship. He's gonna do, yeah.

That's great. I'm actually gonna watch the ESPYs. The problem isn't that they've hired other people who haven't been good, it's that they've hired other people who can't be good. Yeah. They stopped after Norman Donald. That's what I'm saying though, is that they're bringing we haven't yet seen them bring in someone who we think is good and that person get kneecapped. If they bring in someone good

they're gonna get jokes about trans athletes. That's a hundred percent happening and everybody's gonna be pissed about it the next day but that's's new ESPN though I know new ESPN they got McAfee they they get people pissed at him and they're like what so you're talking about us huh I think new ESPN might know what they're doing if this is what they're doing I was thinking about Trump too because he is the funniest president, he's funny, he's legit funny, but he is politics funny in the sense that when he was not in politics, you didn't say that he's just totally hilarious. He was still above your Joe Buck and Michael Irvin and people that are sports funny.

But once he slid into fully the political, he can say some things that if you're saying it in a debate, oh my gosh, I can't believe it. But if you said that in real life, it wouldn't be like. That's true. That's shocking. Yeah. and he is funny enough like he's been on Stern and all that like he used to get on Letterman like he's that anyway I just think he has timing yes he just has a natural communication ability with his timing that is hard to teach. Aubrey Plaza 41.

So great. Kimsven? No way, really? Uh, don't remember it. I think she divorced her husband and then he killed himself. Yeah, that definitely happened. That was fairly recent. I guess I just want to kind of get inside the mind of Blake here where a woman should be put on

some sort of a shame list because her husband. She didn't please him enough? I don't know what the deal was. That was a funny morning on Twitter though because I guess he was like in the business also and people knew him. Yeah, so he's an actor I think. Producer, that's right, yeah.

So he kills himself and she's like a beautiful piece. And before I even thought about it, I probably saw 20 tweets that morning of like, if you think using her husband's suicide is a time to flood over Paul's DMs. I'm like, well, it's more of a time than it was yesterday, because yesterday he was alive. So, don't tell us what to do. We're trying to comfort her.

Ariana Grande, 32. Killed Mac Miller. Fuck man, that's so unfortunately mostly true. It hurts. He wrecked his range. Or G-Wagon maybe. Nathan Follwell is 46. From Kings of Leia.

I don't know what you're gonna do to my wrath. Colin Greenwood is 56. What happened? They got so big. Just got too big? Too big, too fast. They probably had some booze problems. Not enough foundation. They had one song.

They had more than one song. What was the one you just did? One halfway decent song. Colin Greenwood, 56. R-r-radiohead, no? Brother of Joni? And our birthday of the day... for the show I went with Paul Thomas Anderson, 55. Based on the strength of boogie nights alone.

But then he did a lot of good stuff after that. Born on this day now dead, Colonel Tom Parker. The Elvis guy? think of my neighbor yeah, she she will not take any Tom Parker slander The world's tallest woman ever was born on this day Zeng Jin Lian born in China Do you think you'll go to Graceland Lady's funeral? Like, will you get invited? I don't think so.

Not that close? No. My wife might though. She goes to... Neighborhood... activities. I just feel like if you have a bit like that, you have to have it as part of your funeral. No, there's... You just don't have a choice. Her whole life is Elvis, dude.

I don't know what it is yet, but she's probably got the casket... The impersonator? She's probably got the casket the same one that Elvis is buried in or something. She's... Yeah. I mean, she's made her house look as much like Graceland as she can. They decorate it for Christmas, you know, the same way Graceland decorates their, you know, whatever it's she's really stoked on Elvis, dude.

She has some like she has an agreement with her husband to position her on the toilet. He has I'm saying he absolutely has an Elvis get up that he puts on for her. And they do it. They have to. I don't know that for sure. But I feel it in my bones. I think you feel it in your bones because you know that if you had an awesome Elvis impression

and a wife that was horny for Elvis, you would be knocking it out all the time. Why not? As Elvis. Let's do it. Let's have some fun. No reason why not. Elvis was in Forrest Gump. Somehow Forrest is standing right there with Elvis. I mean how did they do that? It looks real. Oh man. And Babe Didrikson Zaharius who is that Blake?

BDZ you've never heard of babe didrickson's a Haris Rangers Rangers middle reliever Lefty she oh Was voted the top woman athlete of the first half of the 20th century, so they voted in like 1950 And like well, there's like three women that do anything. Okay, so we're talking... But take a look at Babe Didrikson Zaharia someday and you will see... Were you going for Bivens Dirks? What is this going for? I'm just riffing, bro.

Anyway, she looks very mannish and I think this is the problem with women's sports in general is that can't you be born with a little more man in you you know like some ladies are going to have a yes 100% natural advantage just like men our different men have more men and you know like yeah I know there most guys look at these guys yeah most guys are more manly than I am. Yeah. And that is why I'm not able to sports with them. Otherwise...

What sport did she do? Did we even cover that? Boy, I just remember when I grew up, I would hear her name as a great... Oh. Athlete. They just made him do everything. Yeah, probably Olympics. I don't know, look her up.

She's playing golf here, she's playing basketball here. Golf? She's throwing a javelin here. Again, she was like the one lady that did stuff. Hurdles, boxing, she did everything. She has to be the greatest Who would we say right now is the greatest female athlete ever they probably give it to like Williams or something right Serena would Serena and Simone Biles

You know with that award some I don't know we should probably just give it to all of the females We should probably just give it to all of the females Why single out just one that's a great point dead on this day still dead Strom Thurmond, no Dan I've been to his center In Clemson it does beg the question of like how? Racist you have to be for them to not keep something with your name on it. Cause he was super racist, way later than it was okay. Uh, Kinky Friedman died on this day one year ago today.

It's a Milton Glazer. He created the I Heart New York logo. What? Generic. What is that? Why is that in our birthday list? It's interesting, he died. He's the guy that created it. I remember telling you this story, maybe this is pre-hab, Jake,

but I told you this story that he created that logo and never made a dollar. I'm sorry I remember this you kept saying I heart and I thought you were talking about the radio station. Oh the I heart logo. Who the fuck cares who made I heart radios logo. I love New York but it's the heart. And I do remember you telling the story. Oh okay. But I did not immediately telling the story. Oh, okay. But I did not immediately put that together. You like wrote it, yeah. I'm like, I don't know, dude, when was the guy who made like the Yahoo business section look?

Okay, I didn't know why you were like, why would you mention it? When was he born? It's like, I don't know, it's what we do. But our death of the day, we're not gonna do that. On this day in 2019, Beth Chapman. Oh my god. Blake, do you know? No.

That is the wife, the wife of dog. And that was today in the history of... The Bounty Hunter. I'm gonna call my dad tomorrow. Oh yeah, I guess we didn't get your dad. It's okay. Were you trying him? You might have.

It's dude, chill studio. Um, anyway, yeah, so this is Closing Remarks with Justin Hayward. Hey. And I was looking in the past, you have sent us a few things. Oh shoot, have I? Yeah. Okay, hopefully it's good.

Uh, yeah, you knew one of them I guess, because you had tried to hook up with Qualys about some stuff. Yes, thank you for that. Brian was awesome. Really, really good guy. Very generous with his time, super knowledgeable. Had a bunch of questions for him. Looking to kind of hook up with him again. He offered monthly connections with him and yeah, really, really, really good dude.

So thank you for that you had once sent us a email the uc you know it is outdated but you thought it was interesting you happen upon a story from a dennison texas texas in twenty eighteen where a man that was uh... busted for student-teacher sex, right? So the man was the teacher. Right.

Right? Oh, this is a good one. Investigators asked Coach Day if that was true, and according to court records, he said, quote, he wouldn't deny it. And when asked if he sent pictures of his erection he said quote I ain't sending no softy Yes, I Mean Yeah, you know

If you are asked or not even asked but you're thinking you're I'm gonna send a picture of this Yes, you're not gonna wait till you get out of the pool. Yeah the logics there So you got to give them that oh and then you sent a very detailed which I liked you created a new college football format oh yeah nice based on based on like the European soccer model. Right, right. Where there would be relegation. Because I like Jake. I hate the disbursement of the regionality of it.

So my idea was just... That's just Jake. Yeah. Everybody else loves UCLA playing Maine. Man, I hate it. I'm an Oakland State guy, so obviously obviously we get beat up by you all the time But now they're gone. Texas is gone. You know, just big 12s. Yeah, I mean it is nice I can catch games all throughout the day on Saturdays with

teams and every time zone, but I don't know just seemed like it would make sense and It's just fundamentally changing the product. Mm-hmm like of college sports. Yeah yeah, so it's... And I think I've seen that kind of passed around a little bit more, but... What was your idea? Basically like the promotion relegation system. So you'll have like your top tier of teams and then bottom one or two, I don't even remember that, an email is probably pretty old, but bottom one or two teams drop out to the next

tier, top two have a chance teams drop out to the next tier. Top two have a chance to promote up to the next tier. Yeah, I do this in my NCAA dynasty. Do you? Yeah. Does it work well? In conference? Yeah, you can customize the conferences.

So I base them on tier and geography, have east and west for the national championship. 128 college football teams, eight divisions, each has 16 teams. Division one is the top tier, division eight the lowest tier. And that's how you do it. I like it. Yeah.

I think it would be great. So let's do it. What are we doing? I don't know. Socialists or something. You guys have pool? You guys get heavy hitters in here? Can you I know where the gay lord is? They're there a lot. Yeah, they do seem to be there

Quite a bit. Yeah. Yeah, like right now if I asked every person in this room individually sports fans, I assume What's the college football playoff format this year are you certain you this year? Cuz I think cuz I don't even know if they know right But it's not this year yet, not 16 yet Do you know Blake I honestly don't think it's set this year Did the SEC get their automatic big the four aqs? No, they didn't want them anymore last year was it 12? Yes, for yeah for buys Remembered they were the fifth seed somehow is your best bet

I don't because the they gave conference, you know champions the the buys. Yes, I think they did announce that this year They're not doing that. That is correct. Okay, so they might Okay So Jake I want you to well if you will I gotta get a kid name ranking from you This guy's a lot bigger than I am The teddy bear So I got three kids Daughter two sons. My daughter is Hollen, H-O-L-L-Y-N.

I like it. Second one, Dash. Don't love it. Third, Reeves. What's his middle name? William. That one I like. You like it?

Dash. Dash, it's Dominic's kid as well. I know. I've had to tell Dominic. You've had to tell him. Jason Day, the golfer his kids names dash Oh, yeah, but When let's just cards on the table here Dominic Robinson played quarterback and wide receiver, right?

I feel like and when his stormy his kids name was dash I was like, well, that's kind of silly, but he's probably gonna be fast chance. Yeah now you're gonna have a guard named but he's probably going to be fast. Good chance, yeah. Now you're going to have a guard named Dash. You're going to have a one-tech named Dash. Believe it or not, at one point in time I was fast. You do look like an athlete. Once upon a time, yeah.

I mean, I was a hurdler and stuff. Maybe we'll look alike. I would have picked shot put more than hurdled. I tried it. I tried it. I mean, you knew what I was going to say. But here's the thing, too, is if they are good at sports, people really not going to like the kid. They're going to be very jealous because a good kid,

a kid who's good at sports named Dash is just annoying as hell. They're just getting named something cool that sounds like fast. Yeah. Yeah. We're good. You play softball. Holland is, Holland is not. Man, I used to. I was a lot like Blake, a straight pull hitter. The smashes are OK. You don't get out of bed and slap it to the opposite field. Did you grow up around here? No.

So P1 Ashley, I'm from Pottsboro. Same area as her. I live in Sherman now. So I played a lot of rec softball up there, flag football, all that stuff. So yeah, I grew up in Pottsboro. Played for terrible teams. We were having to play Salina and all those guys.

And it was just, we'd run out of the tunnel with 15 guys. They got 70 dudes suited up on the sideline. It's fun when I meet someone like this, because we're the same age. And that was my exact same high school football experience, was just I knew most teams. I knew four or five guys on their team that were Super highly coveted D1 players and they would have their pads off sometime in the second quarter. Yeah Yeah, I like tape Saturday tape review was not good. It was just

Caught the other caught the coaches were always like, you know, I'd effort them It was just caught. You know, the coaches were always like, oh, you know, out effort them. Six, five. I'm just pointing at my arm. Yeah, I just don't. I don't think it's happening. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, no, this is this is awesome.

I've been a huge fan for a long time. I retired from reading a long time ago, but I did the night that the transcript from the the court pursues release I mean I stayed up all night and read it and just I was fist-pumping so hard and loved the Dan's quote about the geo-fencing and yeah I was just always been been a big fan and this is more than I could have ever hoped for so appreciate everything you guys do and give me something positive to listen to throughout the day and laugh about.
