You know, Community Mechanical is our HVAC company that we love so dearly. I got an email just the other day. Says, Dan, I'd like to shout out Community Mechanical.

Early this week, my daughter's air conditioner stopped cooling the house. They called some guy that works HVAC in her neighborhood. He gave him a quote. It was about $1,500 to fix their system. I recommended to her. They called Community Mechanical to give them a try. They had come out and fix one of our units recently. They came out the next morning.

They discovered the unit parts were still covered by warranty. And then they ordered the parts. Took a couple of days. My daughter and her husband are extremely happy. Community came out. They fixed their AC. They ended up paying for labor. And that's it.

Saved hundreds of dollars for my daughter. Be like that guy's daughter. CommunityDFW.com. Be like Brandon Aubrey, who had a similar experience where he was told something was going to cost an arm and a leg, and it ended up being like a finger. Nobody ever follows up on that and says what an acceptable amount would be. His leg is especially costly. It's communitydfW.com. Hit him up about that preventative maintenance.

469-66727290. Community Mechanical. Travis and the team real cool. You don't want your house. Splot. Don't be a bitch, so pick up the phone. Dan almost died. Welcome to our Thursday edition of the Dumb Zone. To tape today from Zollies in Fort Worth on Hulon.

I guess just say Fort Worth. It's good enough, right? There's not five Zolies in Fort Worth. Not yet. There's one. I'm Dan McDowell. I'm Jake Kim. I'm Blake Jones.

Foodie CK is here. T.C. is here. I saw Snap here. Intern Henry is here. But nobody cares about those people, especially when you get Julie Dobbs here. Wow. What's up?

The boys love. Do they? Does the manager know? That milkshake brings all the boys to the yard. Yeah. Or something like that. It's probably just the pizza and the booze, but I'm happy to be here.

There's things that we probably all wish that you could just forget about your buddies or your friends. and you're like, I love 99% of you. For me, the 1% is Dan's obsession with Kleece's milkshake. Great song. I haven't thought about that song in a long time. Well, he's obsessed with it. He used to listen to it on repeat.

I loved it without knowing the true meaning. And once you learn the true meaning, you're like, whoa. That's pretty gross. It's really, it's even a better song. He would say it. He would go around saying, my milkshake brings all the boys. Yeah, it's just a fun tune to sing. Everybody has to get so into the lyrics.

and the artist over the arts and all that kind of stuff. And what color, like, paint the actors were wearing when they were singing it, you know? Yeah, like whatever, you're just trying to be accurate. Well, anyway. Zollies is the best. It's part of Pilf Catering and Conne Roso. They can serve all of your needs in different parts of the Metroplex. I remember when they came out here.

This was a big deal. You used to live around here. Very close, and I left right before everything. The Chisham Trail is close by. I passed it on the way. Yeah. Almost got stuck down. There.

You can. Yeah. It can get thick. Yeah. The traffic there. Milkshake and Chisham Trail right off the top today, huh? Yeah. And those are probably, those don't require this.

Despite Dan's tepid interest, I'm going to proceed. Right before you walked in, Julie, there was a table in front of us of probably 10 people, a couple of adult females and small children. Okay. And did they leave already? No, but they did walk in, kind of make faces that looked like, I don't know if this is okay and then they moved over there. Yeah.

But there are still speakers, and I want those people to know we will be buying your lunch. Because this is going to... You should tell them after so they don't order a bunch of extra stuff. I don't care if they order after. I want them to know while we're doing the show so that they, when they start to come over here and say, I wish that guy with the goatee wouldn't have said that. They'll think, yeah, but we already ordered food. I like that. I support that.

I mean, it's inevitable. It's going to happen. Yeah. I don't want them to leave here thinking... You know, they learned just what milkshake men. We didn't really dive into it. No, they haven't learned. We should see if they know. We're four minutes in.

I have a feeling we'll find our way, right? So to those folks over there, dig in. Jake loves to spend our money. Just loves to spend our money. And on people who don't listen. I'd rather give it back to the people, but whatever. Maybe we're going to convert a couple. It's possible.

Maybe she'll be one of our huge listeners of 2027. I think I'm going for the kids You know, that's more of my way. You're trying to get younger. Yeah. Okay. You can have the kids. Okay.

And I will interview the moms. Okay, so I wasn't here for the past few days. Don't know if you guys knew that or not. But so I have a couple things to tell you about my little trip. Obviously, tons of news as keeps happening. I don't need any pictures of me. I feel like right. Yeah, why does T.C.

to get close-up pictures of you. And it's not because it's not like they're not going to be great pictures. Just far away pictures. You know what it is? It's the comedy show thing. And now T.C. is going to do it even more. You know how this works. It's the comedy show thing.

Our marketing lady is like, have them take some pictures of like the three of you or the full scene. She goes, I have all these really artistic. They're great, you know, poignant Jake looking off into this. You know, it's like. But what are we going to do with that? I was just making a face just. Well, you do need a headshot. Well, I was making a face.

I was like, that's going to look really gay whenever I see the photo. We could use this headshot on the comedy club wall. And you'll be up there with carrot top and whatever else. It's fine. But I have a couple things. So there's lots of sports. In fact, I'm sure T.C. And maybe even Blake would love to get into my, I got some hot opinions about what just went down at the baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown.

Oh, no. But then LeBron does this thing. And then Romo does this thing, and, like, all this stuff is breaking. So we're not going to get to Cooperstown talk today. I don't think. Okay. Also, just in my ears, I'm really not hearing myself that much anymore. It changed.

I just kind of faded away. Was the Rangers game on live right now? What do you mean? I mean, there's a Rangers game on live right now. They're closing up a series in Tampa before heading to Houston. Yeah, that's why I don't want to talk. The replay thing. So what do you want to start?

Start with then. What are you teasing here? I saw a movie. So I have a couple things. So since this is even before my trip. My trip was I had to, my almost graduated fully from college daughter, I had to drive her from Clemson to Nashville. But before that, I have a photo to show, and I want to make Blake angrier because right now he's angry because he can't fix our headphones. and I know how he likes perfection. But I went to, so this is sad,

I've never even talked live on air, I guess, about our comedy show. So we were, I was last year Friday. Then we did the comedy night on Saturday. I think it was very successful. I thought it was great. I thought you were great, Jake. The whole night was unbelievable. Thank you.

But before that, I had gone to Lowe's in the Moritz. morning and I went not just to walk. Oh. But I also went to buy Christmas tree storage. What? A quest. Which I learned that I cannot do at Lowe's or Home Depot.

I think I, they've suckered me into it. Like the container store has one that's called Christmas tree storage and it's red and green. And so that makes me, yeah, yeah, this was made for a Christmas tree. Whereas Lowe's just has the big, the exact same container. but it's just white and it's yeah it's like five dollars less probably yeah but I've learned I can't just buy that one you want the red and green the one that was made for the Christmas tree right I have the red and green yeah it's pretty awesome but despite Lowe's uh well Lowe's makes us upset in that way they don't have the red and green uh I want to show this photo um this was July 25th at Lowe's Blake oh sweet

July 25 at Lowe's they have their I get my Halloween stuff they had to their Halloween displays are up now and you can buy your yard art for Halloween or just whatever. Yeah, it's right around the corner in three months. July 25th at Lowe's. So I don't know the first day they did it. That's next quarter. Yeah, like, and they got a big pumpkin man up. Maybe let's put some Valentine's Day stuff up in late October and just kind of make sure that you've got your full quarter, your full three months to get ready for every holiday.

I think probably part of what the thing that is happening there too is I think that the front yard stuff, is becoming more popular. What do you mean? Front yard stuff is becoming more popular. Like putting giant decorations in your front yard, right? Yeah, because when I was growing up, like, I feel like you had to make them almost. And my mom did, or we would buy them, you know? Like, if you're in the, my mom was a seamstress.

Yeah. We were in the country. Like, people would make their decorations. Wooden cutouts of, like, Rudolph and paint them. And you would put them on, like, a steak in your yard. you just got that. And I feel like when you drive through suburb neighborhood now,

everybody's got some giant shit plugged in in their yard. I don't remember that being at Home Depot period, like 10 years ago. And the, they might have a little bit of Halloween stuff, maybe 20 years ago. The inflatables have crossed over

from like a little bit cringy to like very cool. The cool people have inflatables now. And the cool, the bigger your inflatables are, the cooler you are. Sounds like someone who just bought a inflatable. Yeah. I can't afford the big ones.

I get like the small ones. They're not cool at all. Just to check the box. Everything's bad about them. But you're right about that. There's a lot going on in people's front yards these days. Hell, I think sometimes I've seen some that are non-holiday anchored. Like they're just like, well, my kid likes cars.

So they just have like a big race car. I haven't seen that. I feel like your property is worth respect yourself a little. So, yeah, then I get to Clemson and they have a thing. I was going to rent a U-Haul, or I had rented a U-Haul. and she doesn't have a lot of stuff, but she has a bed and a dresser and just enough,

big enough stuff that it couldn't fit like in a pickup truck. So you need to get a U-Haul, and we don't have a thing to pull it on a car, the hitch or whatever, so we had to rent the 10-foot U-Hauls the smallest you can get. And when I called, they said, you know,

call ahead and just confirm everything. So I called, and they were like, oh, yeah, we're out of 10-foot U-Hauls now. we have a 20-foot one that you can have for the same price. Don't worry. It's the same price. Yeah. I've been in this spot many times.

So do you know what I said? We only have magnums, right? That'll be okay for you? Yeah, I was like. Actually, I don't. Absolutely not. I can't. I'm not sure I can drive a 10-foot U-Haul.

Dude, we're such betas, but it's so true. So they were like, well, the next closest place, because Clemson's a college town. There's nothing around Clemson. Yeah, but I would think that that's where you would be like, you hold out. Well, they had one U-Haul center, and they didn't hold my reservation. So they're like, well, there's another one. It's like a half-hour drive away.

Do you want that? And I'm like, yes, I will go a half-hour way to get a 10-foot U-Haul. Because I can't. And in retrospect, greatest decision I made when I drove, it was. So the U-Haul truck doesn't have cruise control. they don't have modern luxuries like power windows. Oh, no. I had to roll it down because they somehow have because you can't see at the back,

so they have a little camera that will show up superimposed on your rearview mirror. They got that, but not cruise control. So seven hours was this drive without cruise control. This is modern guy complaining. Yeah, I guess I don't. It's hot. The air conditioner will aim right at like a little spot on my arm would stay cool. And the rest of you is hot.

And then I could aim it up and a little spot on my cheek would be cool for a while. Just rotate it around. So I'm sweating my balls off. We're paying for your lunch. I can sweat them off if I want. Yeah, that's tough. A couple quick questions. Am I an outlier?

Most people are cruise control as a matter of regular course. I can't, I don't. On the highway for sure. I never adopted it. I've never used it. I don't use it. Blake doesn't count. Love highway cruise control.

Yeah, I'll haul ass. Love the adaptive cruise control. It'll slow it down if you get behind a guy. Oh, I thought it has one leg. It reads. Oh, yeah. And then the definitely just guys listening to us right now out in these type of trucks, just gripping their steering wheeling.

Oh, no, no. And I was telling my wife, I can't be a long-haul trucker. But as bad as that stuff is. Great respect for those guys. As bad as those parts are. You know they're being filmed. Oh, yeah. Now.

They can't take their phone out now. Oh, wow. Get distracted at all. In those type of trucks, yeah. Oh, wow. If you work for a company, like my dad's company. Painting a truck or something. They know.

Like if you got in a wreck and you're on your phone in the minute before, you'll get fired on the spot. Damn. Yeah, you're like, oh, I love technology. And then it gets that point. It's invasive. The fleshlight was not on. It was just attached. I think the other thing is just

Maybe you don't feel this way because you think you're Emmitt Smith Not sure how that would widen out to you being able to drive a big body But I can't do it I drove our RV for vacation one time I picked it up and drove it From like one spot in Collieville

To one spot in Bedford And I thought I was going to die I thought I was going to kill someone else Wow an RV Yeah insane And my stepdad could just get in anything You know, he drives furniture all over the country. It's like Matt Grimm, yeah.

Or every other man probably. But I don't know. It's just us. It sucks. But I'm like, listen, I'm doing you a favor by not offering to drive this. We ever pulled a boat? I've done. That's scary.

I've done jet skis on a trailer. But I've not. I've never backed a boat into a lake. Yeah, that's like one of the hardest things on earth. I can give you labor. And then driving the boat onto the ramp. Oh, so hard. I'll give you energy.

I'll give you sweat. You can do this thing. Yeah. No, I'll do whatever, but I can't be the guy in charge of that. So I had to, so my Wednesday was, wait, Wednesday was travel. So my Tuesday, though, was getting picked up by my daughter. Like I had left the U-Haul at her apartment. We had packed everything in it except her bed and bed frame. Because she's like, I got to sleep in the bed tonight.

I'm like, why don't we pack the bed frame? No, no, no. Like I was going to leave her just the mattress on the floor. But she couldn't do that. So she picks me up like at 6, 6.30. This is Dallas time. Because East Coast time, I had fully committed to East Coast time for my two days in East Coast time going to bed at that time. So that when I woke up at 7, it's actually 6.

So it really worked out for me. I love to manipulate my mind. So I woke up at 7, but it was 6. A beautiful one, they'd say. And she picked me up. Then we got on the road by 7 a.m. Dallas time. I was leaving. We didn't get to her apartment in Nashville until 2 p.m.

Which gave us a lot of business call time, as you know. And then gave me time to listen. I listened to just pretty much both full shows that you guys did. And I have a few problems with things like that are. I got to be honest. I also listen when I have been gone, although neither one of us are, usually one of us is here.

I'm gone tomorrow, but I will listen to tomorrow's show. You guys having Mike Soroy on? Some problems, Blake, I will focus on Blake. Both of you guys, though, you were talking about the new, the series quarterback on Netflix, and you claim that the Cam Ward is great,

and he's funny, and the dumb zone is on the Cam Ward train. Slow down! Maybe two-thirds of the dumb zone is on the Cam Ward train. Are you kidding me? You guys are betting on Cam Ward? Yeah. Give me the under.

Whatever it is. Mark this. You like to mark stuff for the future when Jake predicts that... Horse racing. Whatever it is. Yeah, you guys got into that yesterday, but... It's looking good. I got more info.

If you guys want futures on Cam Ward, I'm... How about playoffs in his rookie contract? Ooh, I'm it. What is it called when... I'm in. I'm shorting that stock. I mean, you could take the option. Any option.

I will short that stock. I'm Cam Ward. I don't know. I like a guy who... He will not get a second contract with the same team. How about that? Okay. What you have to go off of whenever you just don't know anything about a guy and I'm going to judge him, it's his parents.

His parents seem like very involved and cool and like small towny and not like trying to get famous. And he seems to like watching. film. Okay. Which I halfway wonder. He's not Jamarcus Russell. That's the thing. He cares. I halfway wonder if because he didn't play football or quarterback at a high level in high school if it's because he's not beaten by it yet.

Do you know what I mean? I'm going to steal from another sport. Same case, Paul Skeens. Didn't really pitch until college. And look at him. He's got Livy. So Cam Ward is Paul Skeens and football? I'm in on Cam Ward.

All right. I know. Okay. I'm very familiar that you two are in on Cam Moore. You know what I downloaded for when you start doing? Pull me up, boy. I just had to bring a voice of reason to this before everybody just starts. All right.

So that's jerking it all over Cam Moore. Next stop. Point two. Just play, I'm just going to play laser sound effects because you're just yelling. Go for another one. Here we go. All right. My second point, Blake read some of today's birthdays the other day.

He said former Ranger bump Willis. Very disappointed. Very disappointed. Wills? Bump Wills. Blake, who has a picture of himself with Rusty Greer when he was like two or whatever, and all of a sudden it's, I'm biggest Ranger fan there is. I can't tell you much about it.

Try reading a book. He thought that the people at... Jake. He thought the people at ES Sports created the word gulog. And nobody corrected him when Jake confidently said, Maya Rudolph, Quincy Jones's daughter. Everybody just nodded and... looked and said, yeah, Jake, God damn, let's put you on our shoulders to carry you up today.

So racist. That is, of course, Rashida Jones is Quincy Jones's daughter. My Rudolph. Don't use the last name. Does not have famous parents. She does, though, as I had to Google it, just to make sure I was right, have four kids with Paul Thomas Anderson. Who knew? Not me.

They're just a couple. They never got married. They just said, hey, things are going well. Why get married? Four kids. Yeah. I don't know. What?

Why not, people? Look, apparently we're not supposed to talk about what is and isn't nepotism anymore. We get angry emails. Oh, I know she was in show business and stuff. I'm not saying she didn't get help. Her dad was a composer. Her grandfather owned all of the Wendy's and dates. Oh, I'm not saying that didn't help her.

Quincy Jones is different. Got it. Now, that you didn't follow up on, or did, I'd not say anything about him having sex with the guy who wrote The Godfather. I don't know if I heard that. Interested that you had Cash Soroy on for a 15-minute infomercial on the most confusing game I've ever heard. He was kind of just theirs. He kind of just was sitting down.

Yeah, but then he started talking about this game, and I was like, all right, so you got to. You find these things. You follow them on Instagram. Then you've got to post something, and then I got to. And then you win big. Then I got to. Big money. If I walk.

from Watauga and then I got a I'm not hearing a problem here Would you expect anything different from the Soroy twins? It was so confusing but yeah, Cirque has a new game show where they're giving away money possibly. Is the winner of that? I know they like to make it

so confusing that you can't win it. Is the winner of that going to do their bet payoff for the football picks that they lost with this? And then my last note on our show that I listen to, Aggie Game Day Sweet.

absolutely gold. I want to replay it. I might like to hear it right now. Wonderful. Wonderful. Loved hearing about the Aggie Game Day Suites. I'm going to make it the break. I can't do it. Got a good break today. Okay. Maybe we'll play it later.

But I appreciate you wrapped it up with a compliment. No, it was great. No, the show. I liked the show. It was great. I just had a couple of... This is how it is. When you meet someone that, hey, I listen to every show, and they have five complaints, though. You know, here's the two things. You know, when we do sit-ins,

they'll be like-closing remarks. Yeah, closing remarks is like, hey, Jake, remember this thing you said two months ago? Yeah, you were wrong on that. And you notice how nobody really ever brings up something I said and I was wrong. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're just like, hey, Dan, keep doing what you're doing,

Playboy. Needle didn't really move for me, but yeah, I guess I wouldn't, nothing to complain about. And as I drove into Nashville, and then we'll get to Romo. here. Oh, I got something quick. All right.

I just wanted you. Blake, I thought you'd be interested in a lady running for election in the Tennessee House of Representatives to represent District 60. Ava Romero, EVA Romero. Her Insta lists her as CEO, broker, podcaster, founder. Great. Unseen to unstoppable. Oh. Yeah, that's how she is. What a catchphrase.

Dang. That sounds like a YouTube channel. Also, when you search your name, she's like real estate agent. Instagram name inspired Ava. That checks so hard. All real estate agent means is for the right price. She's on OnlyFans. I didn't put this together until later in the night.

I may have had an early bird gummy before I was checking into my hotel room. But my daughter was with me. My daughter's like 23. Okay. So I'm checking into this hotel room. They have a king and a couch in this hotel room. And so the lady at the desk starts telling me, she's like, okay, well, she starts telling me about how the pullout couch works. And I just went like this. I put them up in my hand and said, oh gosh. I don't need it. Don't need it. Don't need it. I go, we don't need it. I said we, but meant the royal we, but I didn't put it, like I said,

I didn't put this together until later, because I'm standing there with my 23-year-old daughter. I go, we don't need it. Yeah. And she's like, oh, okay. We'll be lucky if we make it to the bed. Oh, gross, gross. I never thought after we had, you know, then we went out

and got a bite to eat or whatever after checking in, but I was like, I think that lady was like kind of telling me that just to kind of fish to what is this going on here. She didn't know Abe was just dropping me off. like we were walked we were together and I was checking in asking for a key she gave me two keys she didn't ask do you need two keys she just said here are your keys like everybody needs two keys right I was only going to be there one night anyway in case she's trying to escape yeah so then I made uh I made my daughter like I said hey make sure that you like because she I make sure you like

say something to her as you're walking out you know as you're leaving hey dad can you believe that weather outside Because I wanted to still have a chance with the front desk lady. Sure. Sure. Yeah. She knows you help your chances to know that you're a caring father, you know? All right.

Well, anyway. This next little portion is going to be brought to you by Trident Access Services, Kings of the Sea and Kings of Gates and Garage Doors. TXTridant.com. A1-7, 512, 1212. Once again, I got home. Nobody knew. And, yeah, my dogs didn't run down from upstairs.

They sleep over the garage. And came home, opened the garage door. They didn't wake up and come down because the garage door is that quiet. Oh, wow. And it used to be very, very noisy. Yeah. Trident Access Services came out and fixed our garage. You have a gate?

Yeah, I have a gate. Yeah, they do gates. I think about Trident Access Services every day when I press that button and my gate opens. You kind of feel like a queen. You got a swinging gate? No, it's just like a... Or sliding, yeah, sliding. Yeah, sliding.

They got the swinging, they got the sliding. Yeah. It's amazing. They got it all. I got it all. Feel like a queen with Trident Access Services, TXTridin.com. Please do tell them that the dumb zone sent you. It's 817, 5121212.

I tell you this because I'm now going to give you my very brief review of the Odyssey. Oh. Which I went to go see on small screen. screen, I guess, relative to normal where people are seeing it on Tuesday night with my wife because she wanted to go. I think next weekend when we're in Los Angeles, T.C. and I are going to go into the city for the weekend. Two rooms.

So we are not asked to the question that we've been asked many times. I can see it. Bob and Donovan used to get that a lot, right? How many? What's the deal here? Yeah. No, but so I think we're going to go into L.A. where they have one of the, like, what, 20 in the country?

Yeah, I'd have the 70. So I went to go see it with her funny, because I don't know, she didn't, she grew up between, like, Louisiana, like, private school and public school here, but somehow she missed, like, all of this, really. Like, I feel like I know the whole story. I don't know what's in the Iliad, what's in the Odyssey, but I know the whole story.

Maybe we had, like, Greek six weeks. for like it's something. Yeah. But she, that was interesting because she's like, oh, this is all the stories from all of them.

I'm like, yeah, it's also why the guy's name is mentor, right? His friend, Telemma, the root words of all these are from this story. Tella means long way.

Delemachus is his son, all this stuff. Oh. You're telling me a lot of stuff I don't know. You know, like, Achilles is not the same story, but you know Achilles is a person who had the term Achilles heel

comes from that story. So this is why they teach it in school. This is the same reason they teach. This is the argument for teaching the Bible in schools. And if they did it a certain way, I would be on board with it, which is like a lot of the stuff you're going to hear people say is it comes from there. So it was cool. It's an interesting story and that it's like the story that all the other stories are based on.

You know what I mean? Okay. So I enjoyed it, but this is not the place to review a four-hour movie. I'm not even really movie guy. I'll tell you this. I support that they have different types of food at an upscale version of food at theaters now. I'm on board with that.

Yeah, for four hours. But I think they should have upscale versions basically of foods they've always had at the movie theater. And I say that because when I set down to watch this movie, I was hit with a strong scent of orange chicken, which I don't think belongs in a movie theater. No, it doesn't. Like I said, I was like, what, where?

That's, that's Chinese food. And I looked over and we just had a... So you don't like ribs? You don't like... No, I think if you want an upscale burger, hot dog, or nachos or something, like ballparky type food, but I don't want to look over... You can't eat with a fort. It was really weird. And it was a full, like, you know, gangist type bowl.

Like, I don't know. You want to do sushi? That's, yes. That sounds great. Let's get habachi in there while we're at it. That's... I mean, do you hate that? Yeah.

Do you hate that at ballparks when they have sushi? I've never seen that. I guess I've never, maybe where you people with gates sit. Yeah, yeah. No, I don't want to, I don't think you can do that. At least the ballpark you get room. Like, this is all like just, it's based on what. Who had the wantons?

What was put in history, if, you know, you're just a victim of society and the way it is. It's the way it is. And had it started. I had spaghetti for breakfast today. had the first. Yeah. I don't, you know, I'm convention I'm okay with bucking, but it just

didn't feel right. There's a part, you know, like you've heard like the song of the siren, the siren song, this is a term you hear, right? Yeah. It's from this story. Okay.

It's the song, you know, he's going to listen to it. It's a message about your fear, whatever. Fine. The song, it sucks. Does not slap. Zero of ten. not a banger, will not be a summer hit. The song sucks.

So if that's what that was all about, that shit, low-key, not fire. Final point. I think in 500 BC, you are not allowed to ever be like, oh, my bad. I think once you offended somebody in times before, I think we're more forgiving now. You had a duel. You pull up to an island, you're like, what's here? And then they run out and they're like, time for you to die. There's never a conversation of like, oh, shit.

all got this one, we'll leave, our bad. No medication. At some point in civilization, communication got to where you didn't just kill somebody you saw right away and it was not then. Because back then it was, oh God, every group. So when you got up to Columbus, you didn't kill him right away. No, you kind of saw, how can I exploit them? Yeah.

You learn about it first and then kill them. And that's probably what it was, is that once you figured out how you could get. Hey, if we killed everybody right away, we don't know what's the lay of the land. This is a four hour, or however long, three-hour movie. One hour of the movie is Odysseus and his people running back to the boats. Like, oh, shit. Is it great? It's pretty great.

Okay, my kid loved it. It's pretty great, but, you know, it's also, again. Are Sidney's big, uh, milk can't? I thought she's in it. Just a general question you ask about any movie. Is that there on a, no, it's got, just looking at Twitter? There's lots of, did you just get Paul Sacks? Lots of people in that.

I got Paul Sack. Here's Cassie from Euphoria. know. Well, because people are mad about who's in it, which is really weird because it's not a real story. I don't know. I guess it's about, it's Greek in nature. But, no, it's great.

And I'll tell you that, you know, despite the fact that Anne Hathaway is in it. And I do not like Anne Hathaway as an actress. She's this generation's, uh, Jody. No. Foster. No, not Jody Foster. Jamie Lee Curtis. The one that kind of looks like a monkey.

Julia Roberts. Julia Roberts. Just always whine. Everything is whining. I disagree. Her face is always whining. Very far up. But I loved it.

Julia Roberts' greatness and not a monkey at all. And I agree about Anne Hathaway, though. Unlikeable. Not a monkey at all. That's what I have to say about that. Do we have Frank standing by? Has he been standing by for quite some time? Yeah.

It looks like he's enjoying the show, though. Oh, okay. There's got to be a way to communicate that. Frank, your appearance is going to be, we have our lawyer, Frank, Cawley. He's great. He's one of our dream team lawyers. I'm the only one who thinks that, and no one else clap for him.

I've had breakfast with Frank in the last couple months. Oh. And he didn't charge me. Do you all have sushi or? Spaghetti. Typical breakfast. Frank, your appearance to talk about the Tony Romo situation is brought to us by Plum Quick. That is one of our newer sponsors.

Frank Colley, folks. He's one of our dream team of lawyers. The Texas jigsaw. Did you ever think about trying to grab one of those days? We thought we'd have him on to talk about this Tony Romo arrest. as the whole video came out. So Friday is when this thing broke. The Tony Romo, hey, he got pulled over.

He got arrested by Wisconsin police. And when we were doing the show Friday in the den, one of our other lawyers, Frank would say one of our lesser important lawyers, McCool was with us. And since he's a lawyer and stuff, He's like, hey, what like, I'll file the freedom. What is it?

FOIA. Freedom of Information Act to get the officer video that you always see. And we're like, oh, okay. How long is that going to take? He's like, oh, I just did it. So lawyers, they know where to go. He filed it. Over the weekend, he sent us a thing that said,

hey, I got the written report. I'm really surprised they got it back to me so quick. And then when was this? Wednesday or Tuesday night? Tuesday night. You got done with doing the show. I was in the movie. Yeah, okay.

So you guys got done with doing the show. Stressful. And he texts like, holy crap, I had the Romo video. Yeah. Like they sent him the Romo video. Well, apparently they sent it out to everybody who requested it right at the same time. at TMZ,

McCool, everybody. So I guess we put a bunch of the clips on our social media because we weren't doing a show on Wednesday. Blake claims, let's see here.

What was the text we had from Blake? Romo videos got us one million impressions on Twitter. Oh, then everyone's launches. We'll be paying an impression, sir. That's right. Put it on our impression test. I will give 10 impressions for a tip today.

I'll spare you an impression, sir. This is early Bitcoin. Well, anyway, so now it's out there like a full 40-minute video where they pull him over, they do some roadside stuff, they end up putting him in the car, they drive to some other location, I guess the police department, and they actually do then the more testing there to determine if he was drunk. I thought in the initial video, though, I thought, like, right away you can kind of tell something's going on.

You know, not just because it was so loud on the highway. I don't know what you guys thought. Overly cheery. I just think anybody who drinks who's been at the golf course, unless there's a reason they're not drinking that day, they're drunk when they leave the golf course. I just, maybe not effed up, maybe not, like, bad behavior, but, like, legally, just about every dude who, who drinks, when they golf, they're leaving over 0.08. So on the weekend especially, right? As you might.

It wasn't the weekend for him. I'm just saying his whole life is, he don't have anywhere to be. It's a factory to go to at 6 a.m. the next day. And despite the fact that he makes, what, 30 million a year or whatever, and he's already got a hundred-sum in the bank, even when he started that job, you know, he's, it made me think about like the societal, not societal, because one of the common things is, hey, he's so rich, you should easily call an Uber, you should never be driving, you should, that's ridiculous.

It's not societal, but it's family. It's like, and I don't know if he has like a drinking problem, but, um, you know as a guy who used to have a drinking thing and who wanted to not get his ball. busted about it when he got home like getting an Uber yeah and taking that to wherever your location is and telling your wife though I just had to leave the car at the that's like going to be really frowned upon and so it's probably just better if I just drive I'm probably okay I'm Tony Romo I don't know that's where I feel for Tony Romo in a way yeah I mean also I don't know if it's feel for him.

It's not excusing his behavior, but the type of people who end up, I guess, ascending to the top of their profession, in that profession especially, there's such, quote, unquote, alphas that you're not getting to be Tony Romo by being the type of guy who's like, I've had a few beers.

I should call someone else. You think you're the effing man. That's how you've got to where you are. Somebody's paying you, $25 million a year to talk football. Humble went out the door years ago. The idea of like, oh, I'm not sure. That's not an excuse, but that's why I think the excuse or the way to do it would be

you just got a guy. Yeah. You got a guy. Pay a guy $100 grand to tell him, you can do other stuff, but when I call, you're available and you drive me wherever I want to go. Yeah. Yeah, or I guess if you... It can't be an in-the-moment decision.

You won't make that one. Yeah, if you do it from the beginning, and you say, I'm just Ubering because I'll probably have one or two beers. And you know what? That's going to show my young kids. Even if I'm having one drink, I'm going to have someone else drive me. That's probably the way you have to do it. Anyway, we have a lot of Blake cut up some of this.

I wanted to play some of the Romo stuff, and then we can react and have Frank's thoughts on the legality, because I see there's also lots of questions about, you know, is the cop in trouble here? Was everything done? was everything done right? So where do you want to start, Blake? I want to start with the initial stop

because it's funny because Romo doesn't know he's in trouble yet. And so he's like, hey, what's your name? Oh, I was just coming from the course. I didn't know the cars had speakers. It just hadn't hit him yet. He's still funny Romo. So let's start with the first video. Hi there.

Deputy Coram, Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office. Did you speak about there? I was. I didn't know you had them. That's sick. That was what you said. Yeah. Reason for my stop today is the unsafe passing on the right, the lane deviation.

Say it louder, I'm sorry. Unsafe passing on the right, cutting across the gore. Obviously, the gore? Yes. The marked area. Gotcha. Where are you coming from? Well, I live in Dallas, so I can't make any of this.

I'm going to grab to grab us, so we're here, I'm going to do that, but I got the gore. You got the what? The gore, you said? Yeah. That's what it is for you cross it? Yep. Okay. And you were coming from grandma and grandpa?

What did you say? Not a lot of chemistry. I can't hear you either. Yeah, I know. We got to basically yell at each other, right? I feel like I'm yelling at you. Okay. All right.

Where are you coming from? The golf course. And I'm going to meet Grandma and Grandpa. Okay. Okay. I'll take a driver's license from you. You got it. What's your name?

Deputy Court. Here you know. What's your name? So I've seen some people say, Oh, actually, Tony Romo's grandparents died. He means his parents or his wife's parents. Right. It's obvious.

He's got kids. Right. Anytime I refer to my mom now, it's grandma. Yeah. So I think that's what he's saying. Of course that's what he's saying. I didn't see it as that way. It's weird to call them grandma and grandpa without your kids present.

Not if you're half in the bag. Right. Then that should be giving away. He's in the bag with repeating like the gore. And also his family's probably up there. and he's just, you know, and he's like going to go meet up with them. They might have the family there, right? That's exactly what he's saying.

Now, the gore, I've never heard that word in my life. Me either. No. And she said it like he was a dummy for not knowing. Yeah. It's the gory. Cross the gore. I think the grandma-grandpa thing.

Now, I would also add, Romo's a fucking weirdo. He's just a super strange guy. As far as like, you know, like, dad. is a really straightforward character. Romo's just kind of always doing a little goofy, too silly, what are we? And so, you know, I'm not surprised that this looks a lot. This is how he is.

He just is goofy. So add the freeway, some booze. Yeah. So I'm glad. I keep forgetting Frank is here. We had Frank on. No, no. And I'm glad this next video is basically for Frank because I did not know this.

So she, in picking up later details in the video, She can smell the alcohol from his car. He cut off people on the highway. He's coming from the golf course. She knows. He's hammered. And so she wants to do the field sobriety test. And Romo is kind of heard you're not supposed to do that maybe.

And so he wants to call his lawyer, and he is denied multiple times. So play video two. All right. How many drinks have you had? It says zero. You're coming from a golf course? I'm playing a golf trip in Wisconsin State Avenue. Okay.

So it's like a USJA events. Okay. All right. I'm going to run you just in fields. What's that me? Field sobriety tests. Are you willing to take any good sobriety test? I'm sorry?

He's going to call his lawyer. Yeah. You're denying to step out of the vehicle pending fields? I'm just going to call my lawyer. Okay. Step out of the vehicle. I'm going to call my phone. No, step out of the vehicle.

I'm not allowed to. Okay. Now he's sitting and thinking. Yeah, he's pondering what to do. So Frank. So, so yeah, he's saying. number one, no, I want to know because she's like, will you take a field sobriety test?

Like she asks him to do it. And then it seems like she's kind of demanding that he does it after that. So yeah, go ahead. I'm sorry. But Frank, so it seems in that situation he should be able to call, but in further learning he's not. So could you explain why you're not allowed to call your lawyer at that point? Yeah.

What's going on there is he hasn't been arrest. You're entitled to a lawyer. and Miranda rights read to you once you've been arrested. And what that typically means is that you're taken into custody and you're subject to be an interrogate. And so at the point where she's just investigating or looking into whether there is probable cause for an arrest, your Miranda, your constitutional rights to a lawyer

and Miranda warnings haven't been triggered yet. So it's what they call in the law a temporary investigative detention as opposed to a custodial arrest. That's what I was going to ask you, because you possessed that right before that interaction begins. And so you're saying for that period of time, that's what it's called. A temporary period, like you're detained. You don't, you can't call any. You're doing what they say or you're disobeying a lawful command. Right.

And they're just at that point, the theory. is they're just investigating a crime. They haven't deprived you of your liberty yet. They haven't done anything for which you would need legal counsel at that point. You know, it's like if you, you know, if you stop somebody whose description is consistent with a crime that's just been committed and you just want to check them out to see if they might be the person, the suspect, they can't just stop you and say, well, I want my lawyer. Okay, so he says no.

and then she's like, then get out of the car. And she's entitled to what? He said no to the field sobriety test. That's when she was saying, then get out of the car, it seemed like. See, I didn't see it that way. I don't think he was rejecting or declining the field sobriety test. I think he was saying he needed to call his lawyer to figure out whether he wanted to do it or not. Okay.

And the police officer in that scenario was correct that he's not entitled to consult with a lawyer prior to determining whether he's going to undergo the field sobriety test. And that is for officer safety, right? They could be calling anybody. Yeah. Well, yeah, I mean, it's for officer safety. But again, it's really because at that point in the in the process, he hasn't been arrested. So he doesn't have his constitutional rights to a lawyer triggered as of yet. I think there, I think there is arguably a point. where where where he was at least you could make a colorable argument that he was in fact arrested but at that point where she's just questioning him he hasn't he hasn't yet been taken into

custody and therefore his right to an attorney hasn't hasn't been true yet but also it seemed like she was asking him are you willing to take a field sobriety test yes so what's the play there? Well, he doesn't have to take a field sobriety test. He can decline and what happens if you decline? Then you get arrested? Well, you're going to get arrested

and they're going to, that's going to start the process of they're going to take you into custody. They're going to ask you if you will undergo a chemical test, breath, urine, blood. And once you refuse as one of those, then

in Wisconsin, in Texas, is too, there's an automatic license suspension for refusing those tests. And in Wisconsin, I took a look at their law a little bit last night. And in Wisconsin, they can use the fact that you refused those tests against you in determining whether they have probable cause to arrest you. So, yeah, once you start refusing those tests, you're, I mean, you're going to get arrested. So I'm not sure if it's in one of your cuts, but Romo does say something that I've always heard, which is I shouldn't, I'm not going to take a breathalyzer because I've always heard from lawyers that you don't do that. Would you agree with that? Don't do a breathalyzer?

Well, you know, there is that advice out there from most criminal defense lawyers that I know. I think there's a little bit more nuance to it. I mean, obviously, if you haven't been drinking at all, which is what he said in the beginning. Yeah, which we all know wasn't true. But if you haven't been drinking at all, there's, you know, there's some argument that sometimes the breathalyzer machines are not properly calibrated and it could lead to a false positive.

You know, I think if you haven't been drinking at all, there's not a lot of danger in doing the breathalyzer. if you have been drinking at all, even just a little bit, I would not. Because all that is, all that, all the breathalyzer is designed to do is gather evidence that can be used against you. And, you know, if there's a potential that you might be, you might be at the limit or even close, I think it's just always advisable not to. Now, having said that, most places,

is Wisconsin included, once you refuse those tests, there are consequences for the refusal alone, whether or not you're ever found guilty of the DUI or the OWI, is what they call it in Wisconsin. So, you know. I guess the theory is if I know I'm going to blow over, you know, versus, well, then at least we could argue something. If you have it actually on paper that, yeah,

he was point whatever you're not coming back from that yeah yeah yeah you're at that point you're so yeah you don't want to give them the evidence for which they can use to convict you um if you know if you don't have to um now in in wisconsin it's a little bit interesting on a first o w i offense the consequences of refusing the blood test are actually worse than being convicted of the OWI. You get a full year suspension of your license and you have to use an interlock device just by refusing to take the test. Whereas if you took the test, it revealed that you were over the limit and you were convicted, you would only get a fine and no jail sentence and a six to nine month license suspension. So it ends up being worse to refuse the test in Wisconsin

and on a first offense, then to actually take the test and be found guilty for being over the limit. Is the device you just referenced? Is that the thing where you have to blow into just to start your car, like in pluribus? That's the breathalizer.

You can refuse to take that test, and then what they'll do is they'll get a search warrant from a judge to take your blood from. Yeah, but he's talking about the start. You said interlock device. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, yes. The interlock device.

He doesn't know. Yeah, the interlock device. He said like pluribus. There's people in this room right now who have that out in their car. Oh, really? Yeah. Well, I saw the lady in the show Pluribus. That's what I'm saying.

I didn't know either until I learned, but they're everywhere. Do you have one? No, I never got to. Oh, okay. You would know if I. No, I just didn't know, like, if your wife asked you to do it or something, yeah. No, but they'll slap it on you quick now, quick. quick in Texas.

Like while you're waiting for trial, you got, I don't know. That's good. Yeah. That means you got to go get a buddy. But you also hear about other, I think that have ways around that. Bring your kid.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. So he's sensing that asking to call his lawyer is escalating the situation. So he tries to put out the fire. He agrees to the field sobriety test. But they're on the highway. And so she wants to get him off of the highway,

which then creates a little more chaos because they cuff him and they're going to put him in the police car, but there are cars coming at them. So Romo is really scared to get out there. No problem, dude. Cool in the pocket. Well, yeah. He eventually gets in there. He's cramped in there.

And so they go to this garage to do this field sobriety test. But Romo has been cramped up in the back seat and his back tightens up. Yeah. And so before they start the field sobriety test, he asked if he can do some stretches to get the, His back limbered up. So he's out. He's doing the handcuff thing or his wrist or sore. Go ahead, dude.

And he's just on the front of the car, just stretching his legs. That makes him look drunk. Yeah, definitely. Definitely. I've done that. Just like, I'm going to brace you outside. Let's go outside. Yeah, no, that looks like when I wake up, I'll do that kind of.

And it's really hard to hear. He's looking at the male officers. Dude, he's doing a full routine. Yeah. When I tell you to start, take nine heeled of toe steps on the line. He can't understand her directions at all. nine heeled toe steps. What does that mean by turn?

What do you mean my turn? Okay? When you turn, you're so primitive. Keep the front lead foot on the line. I know. And turn by taking a series of small steps. Now he's on the ground stretching. With the other foot.

I'm going to demonstrate with three. You will do nine, okay? This is crazy. He's stretching as if he's about to run a sprint, right? Two back surgeries. Two back surgeries. Two, three. Two,

I'm sorry. I'm sorry? Sorry, my bad. You go. I can't even watch. I know, I haven't watched this. I knew we were going to watch it on the show, so I was like, I'm not going to watch this outside of this. Let me take one shot at this and be done.

I couldn't play you enough. The amount of times she had to demonstrate repeat directions, and you heard it in there. What do you mean by turn? Like, it just took forever because he's a moron. But also the stuff they're asking you to do, bend over, take nine toe to heel forward steps, and then nine heel to toe steps. And she's not helping. This is not occupational therapy. At some point, let's just be like, let's take him to jail.

I don't know. I'm probably making a point that's like anti-freedom here somewhere. And I don't know. They have so little chemistry. Yeah, no, I'm not listening to Romo and Sarah's mornings in Milwaukee. I don't know about... Not good. Not good.

I don't know about operating heavy machinery. In fact, you probably shouldn't. But I was going to say, if you do want to get a buzz a little, take the edge off thing. Maybe that's what Romo was all about. He didn't want to go back to grandma and grandpa's, you know. There are better options. Yeah, we're talking early birds CBD gummies.

Yeah. That's right. It's not your grandpa's CBD anymore, Blake. This CBD has THC in it. 2.5 millies. Yeah. So it's a tiny bit, but enough to take the edge off. Maybe a guy like me, I want two of them.

I'm not telling you what guy you want to be like. I tell you we don't want to be. You don't want to be like Tony Romo getting pulled over. No. That's a bad bit. And you don't want to pay full price, right? So we can get a deal? Z20.

Earlybird CBD.com. Promocode DZ20. And if you like drinking more than you like, you know, you get your buzz through the drink, get the drops. You can drop that in the water. You can drop it in your soda. Good stuff. Maybe your lemonade. Maybe in the milkshake.

Oh, I feel like I'm back to become a lemonade guy. I bought a couple of, like, crafty lemonade. I don't know. I think I was at Eatsies. I go to Eatses once a week. I go to breakfast on Sunday, every week. And I got a couple of lemonade. And I was like, holy shit, is that what you're all doing with this?

It's like mayonnaise. It got better. Anyways, here's Frank. Well, we're promoting early bird CBD right here more than... Yeah, but you can put the drops in a lemonade. Jake just did a live spot for lemonade. Just in general, yeah. They said put it in lemonade.

I don't know. All right, back to Romo Fund. So one more, one last video. The sobriety test is insane. It takes forever. Play one more. Yeah, this four. It's the one-legged stand test, which he kind of does good at.

He doesn't, it's just, he's so drunk. It's awesome. Here, go ahead. And then you just tell me which foot you want to raise, okay? I think I'm going to raise my right. Okay? Approximately six inches, 1001. and she's just reading straight from the manual she's not doing him any favors and so on until

i tell you to stop okay all right right foot up got to tell you to begin my bad he's forward officer has to walk up and tell him to get off of the police vehicle yeah he was balancing with his hand on the car that he's off the whip do you understand okay which foot are you choosing a razor so he's saying he doesn't know which one to pick since he's had so he's talking about it out. Yeah, now you're saying the left. Maybe the right. No, he's going to go with the left.

Maybe again. All right, here we go. And she's got her phone out, so you can see how long he's going. But he's staying there, got his right foot up. Does he have a big smile on? He says, I might incorporate this into PT. I feel like I might incorporate this into PT. What an a-hole.

Nah, that's my quarterback. And he's saying like, oh, you know, my physical therapist does this, that, and the other. Okay, he falls over at 21 seconds. and he's like, that had to be at least eight seconds. And so then he keeps doing it for some reason. He's showing off. He's going to be stopping the test. Okay.

Now he's just... Okay, you need to listen to this part. Oh, okay, cut off. Okay, so she says, do you want to do the breathalyzer? And he says, no, I've heard to not do the breathalyzer, so I'm going to deny that at this time. And before she can speak again, he says, so did I pass this test? And she said, will you go to the back of the vehicle? He goes, no, huh?

Okay. I'm just blown away. Is this how long an average? How does an average DUI stop? How long does it take? Is this normal where we're just, just feel like this is the rest of this cop shift? Frank?

Well, what happened was because she stopped him on the shoulder of a bridge, there was virtually no room to do a field sobriety test, and it was an unlevel ground. And, you know, if they were to do a field sobriety test where the ground is unleveled, that gives the defendant an argument as to why they didn't perform very well if, in fact, they don't.

So what they did was they transported him from the scene of the stop to a police parking garage somewhere in the vicinity. So it's, that, that, that kind of gets into the weeds, but that sort of starts to look like an arrest at that point, for which there has to be probable cause.

Yeah, they put handcuffs on them. Yeah, they handcuffed and put him in the car, drove him to another facility somewhere else. I don't know how far it was, but I did look at the timestamps from when they left the body cams, time stamps from when they left the scene of the stop to the time they, they started the field sobriety tests at the police facility. It was about 20 minutes later.

So I think he has a really fairly strong argument that a reasonable person in his position, having been cuffed, put in the back of a car, transported to a police facility, would think that they were under arrest. And the reason that becomes important is because to arrest somebody, you have to have probable cause. And I don't think they ever had probable cause. cause just from the interaction between the police officer and Tony while he was sitting in his car. So if they did, in fact, arrest him and there was a determination that there was no probable cause, then all the evidence they gathered after that point would be suppressed. And so, you know, this guy's the man.

Oh, yeah. I think he has a colorable argument. Now, they are allowed to take you from the scene. If doing the field sobriety test there would be dangerous, they are allowed to do that. But it starts to look like an arrest at the point. I think what they did starts, would make a reasonable person think that they were under arrest. And like I said, if they didn't have probable cause to arrest him, then any evidence that they had developed after the point at which they arrested him without probable cause would all be suppressed. Tony's going to have great lawyers. And I think, I really think this is going to be a difficult conviction. Now, having said that, he did refuse the blood test. So, you know, that's that, that, that charge sticks whether they had probable cause or not

for his OW IRS. So I, I think, does that, does that make a problem? Does that make a problem? Kim, he can't drive in Dallas, too? Is that just Wisconsin? Well, that's a different issue. They state, when you get, when you get arrested or convicted of, of, like, a DUI in one state, there's a national database that they report to. And, you know, I'm not, I'm not conversant with all of the, the details of it, but it's sort of a reciprocity thing.

If you get arrested for a DUI in one state, your home state may deem that as the same as getting that DUI in your home state. And so the Texas may recognize the OWI arrest as a basis for revoking his license in Texas. What if, because you said he got pulled over on a bridge or whatever? whatever. How do cops take it if you are like, yeah, this seems like a bad place. Dude. I'm going to keep going and look for like a more of a better place to pull over. I can tell you my experience, they hate it.

And I'll just tell them, sorry, dude, I'm not doing it. I'm not putting a son. I don't care if my stepdad was a cop. I don't. I pull, I'll exit. I'll put my hand out the freeway. I'll put my hazards on and I exit the freeway. I'm not pulling over on the freeway.

It's the first thing I say, sorry, I wanted to get you off the highway. He's like, write me the ticket for not doing it, but I'm not doing it. And that's a good evidence that you're not that drunk. You're at least got that. Yeah, I mean, if that's your spot, yes. Well, and did when they, the first clip that Blake played when he was kind of bantering with her and he says, did you talk to me over a speaker? I didn't know y'all had that.

That's because she was telling him on the speaker, pull over, pull over onto the shoulder. She was telling him to pull over. and he's not pulling over. That's where we started the problem. Yeah, that's a good indication that. Yeah. Well, Frank, it's a joy to talk to you. Thanks for joining us.

Great seeing you guys again, especially you, Blake. Thanks, Frank. Go, Bears. I think it's pretty cool. There he is, girls. Frank Colley. I wouldn't recommend this for every athlete, but I've noticed with the kids now,

there's like a lot of really sick Romo edit. out there over the last couple days. People like, damn, this guy's a baller. I'm like, don't forget. And I saw, you know, Tavon Austin the other day. There was a video, definitely bad bit potential. But it's him, and it's filming him showing his, like, two-year-old or three-year-old daughter his highlight tape for the first time.

And there's a moment where she realizes it's him, and she's like, Daddy's fast. And the look on his face is like, it's crazy. I once played, my daughter was four. and I played her the Lee Corso exchange. Yeah. She was very... You played the campound joke. Very excited about that.

But maybe that's a move for athletes that people forget about. Get yourself in a little trouble because now... It's a good way to get your highlights out there. All right. Let's take a break at Zolese. The Dunza...

The Dungza. I wake up tomorrow and keep living. I mean, you don't. You just keep playing the game. It's a fun game. It's enjoyable. We're going to try and win next year. We're going to try and get a bit.

back in the playoffs and we're going to try and win a Super Bowl. That's all you can do. I mean, if we don't, okay. If you do, okay. Then you're really a great player and you're all these things. If you're not, then you're just a pretty solid, good player. And, you know, that's me. I'll have to deal with that. None of you guys and people will. And that's just part of the job. So you don't sound worried that your confidence would be shaken or anything of that. I've had a lot worse happen to me than a loss in a sporting event. That's for sure. And if this is the worst than that ever happens to me than I've lived a pretty good life. You're listening to The Dumb Zone.

Janus says the same thing and it's, oh, what a great leader of men. What a great message to our kids. You joke, but I think honestly that shows how much culture changed in the intervening time. You could write a paper about that. The way the media reacted to Romo and the way they reacted to Janus. Is it different if you already have a championship under your belt? Definitely. But I also just think Kobe died and the whole everything's got to be a maniacal winning all the time.

But fortunately, the people at Zolai's in Fort Worth still on the Mamba mentality because that's the best pizza in DFW. I just had one slice in the break just to remind me. It's like Gabe, putting the ice cream in his mouth to taste it, but he didn't want to eat it. I'm like, let me just have one bite to remind me. Oh, okay. So Blake was right. You can just have one and everything's going to be fine. Hey, so the Fort Worth Game Day Men's Health is very close to here.

And the Fort Worth Game Day Men's Health folks are out here today, or at least were Allen and Kristen. Or Kristen and Allen. I think she demands that we say their names like that. They are the Fort Worth Game Day Men's Health, Game Day.com. Everybody can go there. and you could drive across the plex if you want to go to the northern edge of the medical district one block south of i-30 it is south of downtown totally orange cone free it's like the best area of fort worth it's where this particular game day men's health is um so we invite you to go down there and check them out mention the dumb zone maybe you want to look into the peptide You do.

Maybe you just want to look into whatever Alan is doing. If you're like, if I could look like he does at that age, I don't even know what age he is. He looks like he's about 16. What he's having. Yeah. So anyway, gameday.dumzone.com. Game day built Jake into the man he is today. And that's quite impressive.

And we are at Zollies in Fort Worth with Julie Dobbs. Hello. Hello. Hello. How's it going, Julie? See you guys. Oh, did they leave? I'm doing pretty good. It's going great.

Oh, that's right. We have a Zoli song. I guess it's more of a... She got two words out. It's fine. Play your song. I'm sorry, go ahead. I was just going to compliment the pizza in the pepperonies that are little bowls.

Those are the best pepperonies. I saw it. yours and I had to just go take some pepperoni's off of that pizza. I don't know when that started, but we used to you could just kind of sometimes find the crispy cups. Yeah. But now everyone has decided crispy cups. The best.

I love it. Isn't this the one with Julie in the song? Carre loso Zoli's pizza pill catering to any food you want, most likely they can do. Even burgers. Even burgers. Thank you, Julie. Oh, gosh, what's wrong with me? For all that you do for us.

Anytime. Yeah, also, so I was trying to decide what to play for the break today. We didn't go with Aggie Suite. We went with Romo after the Philadelphia. Was that a playoff loss or it was right before the playoffs? I think it was playoff. 44-6 was playoff because there was a lot of times where they lost and then they would play the same team again.

And I think that one was actually a playoff game. Okay, because I also found a T.O. And I didn't know if it was the same game. But we all remember Terrell Owens after a big playoff loss. It's not about, you know, Tony. Is this the same game? You guys can point the finger at him. You can talk about the vacation.

And if you do that, it's really unfair. It's really unfair. It's my team. It's my quarterback. And if you guys do that, man, it's unfair. We lost as a team. We lost as a team, man. Certainly listeners who have already corrected this in their head know this.

That was from January 2008, as indicated by T.O. there, that's the trip. This is Cancun. That December in 2008, so the next season, they lost in week. week 17 to the Eagles to clinch a playoff spot. The Eagles clinched it. Okay, so the Romo thing wasn't a playoff game. It was to get to a playoff game. Yeah.

Tio was. So the T.O. thing, I just thought this was like, yeah, I'm supporting my guy, but no one brought up the trip, Tio. I know. No one brought up the Cabo. You planted it in our head and you go, hey, if you're about to bring up that trip he took to Cabo, it's not because of that. He's an actor. He's between being a little mentally unstable actor.

No, but I love that bit, though. I mean, your wife does that all the time, right? Like, you'd be like, you know, and I'm not even mad about this or that. Well, why do you even bring it up? Or this or that. And I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa. I thought we were. I'm not even talking about this interceptions.

That's great. So let's do some cowboys just because cowboys are in camp now. We will be heading to camp. in a couple of weeks. Yeah. And we'll be out there from the 12th to the 21st, I believe, because we wanted to make it a palindrome.

Well, never mind. My birthday is 8-5-85. My daughter's is similar type of deal. Well, you're such a numbers guy. I know you love that kind of stuff. Have you seen the stuff about if you add LeBron's, whatever, all his numbers? I will leave.

You're the one who just said, my birthday is a palindrome? Pallendron. My birthday. My birthday. It's like Julie. My daughter's name is a palindrome. Palindromes are awesome.

Anna. I, uh, work it out. Work it out. I'm very sorry. What's your favorite Rangers palindrome ever? Oh, that's a hard one. Is it? It would have to be Toby Harrah.

All right. Don't you give me that. I just gave a great sports palindrome. This guy's more young norm than you all realize. You don't want to play this game with him. He's got facts. Anyway, let's play some cowboy audio from the opening press conference to camp. Can I tell you this as a connoisseur of these?

Because I like to think of listeners to this show is like, you're never going to listen to the Cowboys press conference on your own. But maybe we can give it to you at 15 minutes. These are usually like an hour and 15 minutes long. This one was 40? Yes. And even for, it's the shortest one they've been, they've ever done since I've been doing this by far. Even they have to be tired of them by now, right?

No. Like even Jerry Jones has to be getting tired of this. I don't know. Time to shine. I'm so tired of these press conferences. There wasn't as much to do. And they just kind of got through it. Not enough old-timey Jerry stuff.

But when you talked, when Jerry talks, he definitely, it's funny because the longer you get away from success, it seems irrelevant. when he bring up something that happened 30 years ago. In fact, he kind of did when they were asking him about, like, playoff chances for this year, but the weight of the eternity that it's been since they've had real playoff success. He correctly points out these players weren't part of that. You know, these players, what's coming this year, does not have anything to do, really, with what has happened in the past.

I mean, unless it's your current quarterback. But he didn't say that. he does like to bring up the past when talking about the presence. What I'm excited about is that I really believe that we can do something. The last time there were this many changes of any team that I've been involved in, where we changed the system, changed out all the players, and plus changed out the coaches, was the first year with Jimmy Johnson. Johnson and we won one football game.

So we know that changing out and starting new can obviously create quite a challenge. But I like what we've got to work with. I, of course, have a lot of confidence in our head coach, Shottie, and have a lot of confidence in the coaches that he's involved. I believe we ran it up. We probably interviewed as many as 40. It could be 45 coaches. that we interviewed. Which we pointed out before.

It's very odd. He does put so much faith in Shottie. He loves Shottie. They all love Shottie. And then the process they went through to interview these assistant coaches seems great. The way you should do it. And Shottie headed that up. Different than the way they've ever done it before.

But also the opposite of the way you hired Shottie. You felt comfortable with him. You knew his dad. You gave him the job. That was it. Like you didn't hire, like let's go to get a search for them, the 40 best possible candidates for this head coaching. No, they interviewed a guy that had no shot at getting a head coaching job anywhere else. So it's just sort of odd.

It's odd, but as I try to make sense of it to myself, I think it kind of makes sense. Because the head coach to them is just the guy who's going to be at the podium with them and they think carry their message. It's kind of like when Kat hired Blake. That's a great one. Cat thought that when he hired Blake, he was like, this guy's on my side. He'll really rein these two in. And instead, he had just obviously hired another one of us, one of us. And so the head coach is always kind of in that job with the Cowboys, not every team,

but with the Cowboys, where are you going to be on that slider? And now why they didn't do this before with the position coaches, I don't know. But I think he views those guys as like, that's where I need real football dudes. so I don't like grind as hard as I can to find those guys with the top guy I just need a guy I'm comfortable with who's going to be more comfortable than Marty's son. But you remember back in the day, really just in the last 10 years,

every time there'd be like a hot name assistant, it'd be like they'd interviewed with 30 teams. They just didn't interview with the Cal, not 30, but you know what I'm saying. You'd hear this guy interviewed with 12, 14 team, but never the Cowboys. It's like, well, why aren't they at least doing the meetings? Right.

They're not going after Ben. the stuff that he knows, right? So this is, it's totally different. I also love the bit. It's kind of like you saying like, I don't know, I'm personalize it, but yeah, I'm going to quit, but I'm probably not going to be acting any different for like a year. He's like, I mean, last time we did this.

So he's setting you up for the Super Bowl by mentioning Jimmy Johnson, but also being like, I mean, Jimmy took one in 15. Yeah, yeah. What are we supposed to? So I love that bit. He does love bringing up coaches that he knows who have said things. I think we've got a chance to really be good. It's going to be hard.

It's going to be nip and nip and tuck. As a little switcher used to say, we're going to burn some of these wagons on the way to California for firewood. We're going to lose some folks. We're going to have some barn, but the wagon train is going to get there. Okay, that's still greatness. Yeah. I thought this one was supposed to be somewhat normal.

What? Just this press conference. That's what I was hearing. No, no. It's just a lot less of this. But that's gold. He's normally doing when you're circumcising a mosquito. Right.

But I like that. It made no sense at all. He's got bridges and boats and he's burning them. And in both cases, it can work, right? Burn the boats, burn the bridges, burn the wagons. But in either way, he wants you to know. That's going to be rough. Yeah, there's things that are going to happen that aren't totally expected.

There might be a kid that I don't know I have. Right. That shows up in the middle of the season. But again, Jerry loves things that you, you, tell Jerry things and he remembers him. Like he remembers that Switzerland from way back. He loved hearing it. He loves saying

it now. And there's been something else that has been said over and over and over again in the off season and then leading up to now. And apparently it's said in Jerry's presence enough that he is now going to take it and make it the theme of

the season. I think we've got a chance. Oh wait, here it is. All that. What a great setup, and then I secured it up. Here we go. I don't care whether they are rookies or whether they're 10-year guys. If they can't communicate with each other when they get out there, it didn't make any difference on an individual basis where they were. We're going back to Iber flus was a clown. He didn't even have these guys talking. I thought it was weird that he taught the defense in Spanish. Yeah, like, but.

And they were all like, I don't know any of these goals. Okay. It's like you want to explain something to the, this is the way I'm viewing this. They want to explain it to the old man. So this is the easiest way we can break this down is they were just having communication problems. This guy is clearing that up. You can say the way. And you can even say Caleb Williams or Caleb Downs is, that's his thing.

Yeah, for sure. He communicates. Yeah, he might be four foot eight, but he does talk a lot. Here, anyway, that's. That's the key to this year, I believe, is the word communicating. And one of the main things that I have heard us talk about and say in interviews, countless interviews, and after we made the decision of who's going to be doing the coaching, the word of communicate, talking to each other, understanding what it is that the other one is expects

of the other one. This thing has been as ad nauseum, the chant. If you listen real hard out there when you're watching practice, you'll hear it be one of the real focal points of this whole camp is communication. See? I love it. I do too. Just hear him talk.

What's great about him is every year it feels like he just discovered football. And it makes me feel excited about it. But when he talks about that, I can only think of John Gruden talking to Kellyn Moore about communicating. You see, all these shifts, all these formations are causing a lot of communa what by the defense. A lot of communication. No one has ever done that. Communa what.

Finish this word. Communa. Communo. All right, I'm going to turn this over to Dave and transport. Shottie only had one bingo, so I'll give it to you. He's going to start at left guard, and we're going to get him some reps to tackle. Why? Just because we're going to be ready, but that's no different than that.

He did. That felt like long toss. You're coming back for a few months off and you're like, let me uncork this. If you're looking for a future cowboy problem, this is a simmering one. The offensive line, the tackle spot? Yeah, it's Tyler Smith got signed to a really good contract for a guard. And they don't want to renegotiate? Yeah.

And if they all of a sudden make him the left tackle, his agents are going to want to renegotiate that immediately. I think they already have something in place. And I'm not saying that because I'm an insider. I'm saying that because very rarely do I see someone correct Bob on Twitter, and I saw it happen on this story. Oh, yeah? It was Nick Eapman. And Bob was, and I only knew because Bob was fighting with Coop and Brad Champ.

Why was Nick Eapman? What was the fight? Bob was saying he doesn't think. Yeah, they can't move him because this, and there's no way he's going to go for that. and they were arguing about it. Like, I don't know when, usually when Bob, Coup, or Brad alone are fighting, but when all three, my phone explodes.

But you feel like somebody got the better of Bob? Nick Eapen was just like, I actually know that when they worked this deal out, they talked about this and said, they don't have to report all that publicly in the deal, but that there are triggers in, like, this many games played at this spot will mean different money. Ah, okay. So, like, they covered it type thing.

So it's a problem for their office. offensive line because he can't play two positions. I don't think it'll be a problem for the player. Okay. Because I didn't know much about Nick Eatman. All I know is somebody get, some people get upset with their generic answers that the Cowboys can sometimes give. And I would only say generic questions lead to generic answers. My example?

I want to talk about the cornerback room, obviously going to be one of the more heated competitions you guys see out here in Oxnard. What's your confidence level and how excited are you to see that competition? I'm a Nick Harris fan, but you guys should have to ask a lot of questions. What if he said seven? My confidence levels is seven. Next question. What do you say? But they don't.

My confidence is a million, and, you know, I'm very excited. That's a thing, though. These guys sometimes are writing an article, and I just really, I know what I'm writing, but I need to use a quote from you to enhance what I'm saying. So I'm just going to throw you this and then just say the normal thing. But we all have to be witness to it. I guess we all don't. Well, you have to be because every now and then you'll ask how you feeling about your coordinators coming into this week.

And then Bill Parcells will drop a racial slur. And you're like, whoa, that didn't have that in the bingo card. Just a couple more. These are mostly Jerry. But this one is another reporter. It is Tim Kallishaaw, who saw you go up Jake last Saturday night. is like, man, if he can do five minutes, why can't I? Tim.

Tim Kalashaw, Dallas Morning News, still printing seven days a week. Sorry, let me enhance that a little bit. Yes, still printing seven days a week. That's good stuff. Yeah. Yeah, printing seven days a week. Journalism joke? Yeah, because, you know, Tim's having to sit there and listen to people

read off all the websites they work for. and hey, Landry's Ballsack.net. That's not a real credential. Would you know what I'm saying? It's weird for him. He works for the Dallas Morning News. That's old. I think there's plenty of great places out there, but that's a funny guy.

Is that your helicopter, by the way? There was a helicopter, like Shottie had been talking. There was a helicopter going over camp, and yes. Tim, what Tim did. He heard that laughter, and he's like, hold on. I want him. Got him in my hand. It's addictive.

Because I went to a lot of church camps and Shadi is just ripped straight from there, I promise you that while they were practicing, if he saw those helicopters, he worked it in somehow. Because for us, it would be like, that's the devil trying to distract us. I promise you, he's like, somehow, they don't want you to have to, they're trying to get your head here. Everything is an opportunity for a lesson with him. I'll tell you, Jerry, is that your helicopter, by the way? I'll tell you this. Long way out in a helicopter.

You're going to scrimmage the Rams in a couple weeks. Oh, bring it on down. Actually, I wanted to play you then. He's going to, he has a Rams question. I think it's a pretty good one. And this is kind of like the, sometimes, like if this question wasn't asked, we would have people saying, why don't you ask them about,

you know, whatever it is. Hey, hey, you never, get out there and add, hold their feet to the fire. Okay. You're going to scrimmage the Rams in a couple weeks, and they won a Super Bowl four years ago, and you talked about them betting it all for one year. We were back in the championship game last year.

They made huge moves to get McDuffie and wild scares. You look at them and see maybe there's a way more aggression, and being more aggressive than you have been that works in this era. You look at them as a model to that because you're talking about making a kind of move that you haven't been making. Yes. Yes. I've had the discussion coming to camp with all of us. I admire the job that the Rams have done and how they've done it. That swapping quarterbacks was gutsy.

And so they've done it. They've done it. And yes, I admire the way they have put teams together and the way they have competed and sustained the competition. Yes. All right. And then you almost feel a little let down after like, oh, damn, he's just admitting that they were wrong. Yeah, yeah.

And I wish that he's got Rams envy, yeah. But like at the time, that's when the Cowboys were kind of on the cusp. They get blown or beaten by San Francisco or Green. I can't remember wish the order, but that's where Philly goes. for it. They go get Sequin and the Cowboys are like, well, what if we let a couple guys go and we just run it back? Like, they did not get aggressive.

They did not say, we're so close. Let me, which is really the, is it the dichotomy? What is it that you always think Jerry, I mean, Jerry Jones, he kind of gets in his own way, but he'd do anything to win that other Super Bowl, to prove that he could do it without Jimmy.

I don't know that that's true. I don't know that they would do anything. That's the first time I've ever heard him talk like that, though. And you just say yes. Yeah, yeah. That's because, you know, usually they're like, oh, you've got to pay for that later and all this bullshit.

You're like, I don't hear about that nerd. These guys are having parades. So that's the first time I've ever heard him talk like that. And again, I don't know if it's just because I went to go see The Odyssey the other night. But I feel like this is where Jerry learns the right lessons. We're almost home. We're almost back to his queen. Yeah, he's like 90.

I know, but they're not going to. to win multiple, right? Final one. I'm going to win at all. Final one here is just Jerry's expectations for this year. Expect. I expect us to be significantly

improved defensively. Significantly improved. And I actually expect us to improve overall the offense. And I expect the enthusiasm that coach has talked about here to be contagious on the field. And if something like that happened, you can have somebody get in the big hunt and get in the deal that maybe a lot of people didn't think we're ready for it.

So let me let me just say this. There's no way that I would do anything that would delay until next year or the next year. to try to get to a Super Bowl this year. All right. And I think what he's referring to there is, would you make a trade during the season? Would you even make a trade before the season? You know, is there something else in the offing? And at least that's what you heard there.

I always think it's tough. It's a, I guess it's, you know, I've been through the Campo era, you know. And if you want to say, talk about enthusiasm. Enthusiasm is fun and it's great and it's content. until you go five and eleven it's you know three years in a row i'm not saying shoddy has done that but enthusiasm is no i mean you know what i think that's not even in the cards they've got a winning quarterback campo was dealing with what chuch oh speaking of a god of winning quarterback i mean they've got one to give you a chance so i i think they've got uh what is dack calling

the the team i was hoping we'd get out of here without having to admit this but he's uh you You know. He has like a nickname for the offense. G-O-T-I. What is that? Greatest offense there is. But it's also just a cool, it's a cool thing to say because it sounds Bob like. Godi's a cool word.

No, it's not. Just get over it, guys. Like Louis, like L-V, because it's where the Super Bowl is in Las Vegas, that's why I bought some Louis. It's not cool. That's why I built to build a whole new house. Just wait until he starts saying it in press conferences. I think he said it. That's why reporters are putting it out there.

Like, DAC has told us his nickname for the offense is Gotti. I was hoping they just picked that up secondhand. He's actually saying it. That's awesome. Yeah. This is a single DAC, by the way. This is his first move post-divorce or whatever you want to call it. Gotti.

It's getting his swag back. Let's view some mails. Viewer mail brought us by Flooring Direct, DFW. We're still in the process. In fact, my wife got a couple more samples. She has trouble making decisions. I got to give her this. She had to go out of town.

She had some family stuff going on. That's why it's taking a long time. Now you're up to six samples? There's a lot of samples. She was looking at them today on the kitchen table. Look, I'm leaving it to her. We're getting new floors. We're getting them from flooring direct DFW.

What if she learns so much about floors and becomes so passionate, she goes to work there. And if you go to flooring direct, dfW.com, you might end up getting Dan's wife to come out and show you the floors. You have to go to floorindirect, DFW.com slash dZ. Now, if you told her, well, I have between one and four,

she would have a difficult time deciding what time to get there. But look, they've got a lot of great stuff. you know and they brought the showroom to our house literally the showroom is in our house right now yeah you hear the forklift they will bring they will bring the showroom to you as well now you can go to the showroom they got one in Addison they're local they're live they're local

they're DFW proud they might say they'll match or beat any deal in DFW but they're great great to deal with an incredibly patient if you have a if you have trouble making your decision. They will work with you as long as you need to, and they'll move your furniture for you. They'll be in and out of there.

They'll clean up. You won't even know they were there except that you'll have brand new floors. Like we will. At some point, Jake. Someday. Someday. No, it's very exciting. We have scheduling conflicts, too, because we're going out to camp.

Clayton would not let us do the den while he's not there. So, anyway, flooring direct, D.F. www.com slash dZ they really are awesome to work with and it's new floor cizzen I got one from Nick I didn't have to use this at the movies the other night but anybody who listens to me knows I got to go pee a lot

Nick says I need to know about run pee it's an app or a website where people figure out the best times when to pee in every movie are You can start a timer and get notified when to pee. Ah. Wow. You can also read about what's happening in the movie as you're walking into the bathroom.

That's brilliant. Golly, that's awesome. He says, you know, it's good for kids. Yeah, kids. Yeah. No, I think kids need that. Yeah. Stinking kids always need to pee during the middle of the movie.

We all do, but especially kids. There's an app and a website. They hold it in because the movie's so good and then they have an accident. Yeah. Hopefully just kids. Right. There's run pee. Runpee.com.

Ryan says, as far as Tony Romo, genius, he says he's always been playing the long con by sounding slurred on TV and conditioning us to think he's always blitzed. There is that. Yeah. Now we hear the body cam footage. Romo sounds like his goofy-ass self and a little more coherent than when he's on the broadcast. Or is he actually more drunk on the national broadcast than the moment of getting pulled over?

and he always has many bottles of alcohol in him. Well played, Tones. I think they did say he had a bottle, too, didn't they, an open container? Yeah, but he... Shooters? He said they weren't opened. Oh, okay. Also, my favorite part is she said,

there's, like, I smelled the odor coming from you. And he goes, yeah, the guy's at the... Okay. Like, he thought he was going to be able to blame his friend. It wasn't my weed. Do you do, though, when you get pulled over and they ask, have you been drinking at all, do you go zero? If you had eight, do you do zero or should you say, yeah, one or two?

I've always wondered. Yeah, don't lie. Don't get 100 on the test. Well, I mean, you're lying. Either way. You're lying one way. And you're opening the door to like all the questioning if you say, yeah, one or two. Yeah, what time was that drink?

And what was it? They're going to figure it out. Plus, he didn't know all that was going to happen. Like, you could have just said zero and then she could have said, okay, go on with your day. Well, and yeah, is he hoping it gets pulled over? Because he's Tony Romo. He's hoping he gets pulled over by a dude, right? Absolutely, a Packers fan.

I have one that's... Just someone familiar with the NFL. Yeah. It's semi-Cone-Roso related, but it's also... I think our people at Conne Roso and Zoli's are cool enough to understand. There are chain pizza restaurants that exist. This guy says, and this is actually because he's such a big Conne Rousseau guy.

He went to a Domino's on vacation for the first time in decades. Okay. This is a guy who copse to living a bit of an uppity health-conscious lifestyle. He's 44. My wife is a health, is kind of like a health influencer, like adjacent person. Yeah. Beating. He said I wouldn't know how to order from a McDonald's of a hot, homeless guy offered

to Winston woof me for a Big Mac. Then recently, my wife had dominoes at a kid. birthday party the next time the idea of pizza came up, much to my surprise, she said, let's order Domino's. I didn't know there was an app because Connie Roses is my right or die. Please come back to White Rock on Gaston. Why would I forgo bacon marmalade? Great point. He said, but F me, the chain dominoes was delicious. So we're on vacation and I order it. My wife placed an order for me to pick up while I'm out. And I walk in and expect someone to hand it to me. They asked from the back, are you here

picking up. Yes, I explained. Well, it'll be in the case, he said. And he's like, of course it's in the case. But like, a lot of these places now are not doing the case anymore. Like our pot belly in South Lake doesn't put it out there anymore. Because of people stealing them? I assume.

Because of Blake's. Hey. Blake's running around. They still have the stacks that say A through D. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Where's my food? I draw the line at stealing. Yeah, that one.

orange pizza man, you have to scan your code to get the case to open. I feel like that's a good bit. I think it's good to remember that chain pizza exists too. Again, you just need to be reminded of these things. I'm so glad my wife's not healthy. I got, I know you guys read this email, but have we heard back from a listener named Karen said she was having brain surgery yesterday. I'm not sure if Sean Kernan of 360 wealth management was performing the brain surgery on her.

But he did give us. He did give us a business Wednesday yesterday. But, uh, so can I ask, are you just asking, has the lady who went, underwent brain surgery followed up yet or not? And the person who might be dead has emailed us?

Yeah, because, well, let me ask you this. Do you know, did she like at least lock in a, an annual before? I can't confirm that.

If you're going to have any kind of major surgery, do your boys a favor and just lock in an annual. You're not going to need the money. Right. Right. I have a movie trope. The cat, it's like a sentimental moment you were saying goodbye or whatever. You're trying to make a decision fat, and the cab honks at you. Yeah.

Like, hurry up. To rush your decision. You don't hear that much anymore. Like gay or not gay? Yeah. Okay. Group of college buddies setting up. a Spotify joint playlist for everybody

contribute to. We are all 45 to 50 years old from Derek. I don't like that. Well, I think machine sets one up for our trips that only he can add to. So it's like here's the machine, here's the trip playlist, everyone you can play it. And it's like it's just his.

I don't think that's so bad. Everyone's tired and doesn't have time to make their own playlist, so why not contribute and work together? Well, these are guys though, Julie. Yeah, I know. I understand that girls are allowed to do that stuff. I like that. I feel like almost anything related to just trips and vacation,

Julie's going to be like, that's awesome. I thought I'd run into her in Nashville. Probably. No, yeah. Not this time. Mayor Pro Tem. Speaking of that, we got a follow up on Hippie Hollow. The nude.

You've been down there. Nude Beach and Austin. I've not been to Hippie Hollow, but I am from Austin. You've heard of it down? Yeah. You're well aware? Yeah, but I didn't like know anybody that went there. Well, we have listeners.

And one of them recently was there, and a guy, what did he start to drown? He gave a game day men's health shout out, too. He did. He said he had the confidence to go there because of game day. Yeah, he went there and a guy like somehow, I don't remember what it was. Somebody was drinking and got overheated, right? And he had to, like, do an interview with the park rangers. Who are closed?

Yeah. They're not nude with a hat. He's like, you know, I'm just standing there. Naked talking to like a cop, basically. No. But we got a follow up. This is a guy, he says, I have known as Backdoor Milf's husband on Cirque. We're big hippie hollow fans.

He says big weekends like Labor Day Memorial Day are musts. Pretty even mix of couples, single guys, and male couples most weekend. He says, among the single guys, there are men like your caller who emailed who typically keep eye contact with women when conversing a fair amount. This is confusingly written. But here's what I'm saying. He said there's guys who will walk around, and if you're a couple, he'll kind of check out your woman and then keep walking and maybe come back by.

He said, I particularly think it's funny when a guy will repeatedly make laps back and forth with me and my wife, sneaking a quick glance and showing a more erect manhood each time he walks by him. So obviously, this guy is sneaking a quick glance. at him. Absolutely. You've got to be paying somewhat close attention to notice that, right? Why is he looking at him?

Right. Judging all around. And he also sent us pictures of his wife. You know what I don't like? Put in the folder. Oh, really? What did you say? I don't like referring to another man's weiner as his manhood.

That bothers me. It's like a Danielle Steele novel or something, right? What would you like to call it? Yeah, what do you like to call it? Yeah, what do you like to call it? novel. His little pee. What do you like to say?

What are you like to say? Manhood? It just, I don't know. Let's go technical. Let's say the word penis. Can we be afraid of that? No. I've got a follow up.

None of it's okay. I have a follow up from Brandon. Dan, while you were out, we, Lindsay Sterling's opener sang a song with her. And I was, I was interested, like, what opener has had to sing for the headline

that they eventually get more famous than. And there's one. and Brandon says, we used to go see Josh Abbott band a lot in Denton at the county fair every year, and they would bring up Casey Musgraves to sing one of their songs. There's probably a lot of those around the years. She's way too big to do that now. Yeah. The country scene, I don't know if the rock scene is the same, but I remember at the,

it was like the McConnellsville County Fair, Morgan County Fair, in this small town, Ohio. I lived in McConnell'sville, but part of Morgan County. and it was like Lori Morgan was there. And then a couple years later, she's dating Troy Aikman. Tracy Lawrence was there. So you didn't know who they were, but a couple years later, because I had to cover it because I lived there and the news guy and stuff. I might have talked to him.

The guy that I... Yeah, but he's just doing county fairs in effing southern Ohio, like the most beaten thing you've ever seen. And a couple years later, he's huge. The guy that I posted... I posted an interview yesterday with a pastor in North Carolina, and he also does some stand-up comedy on the side, and I think he said it was 2018.

He opened for Bargazzi in front of like 15 people. Oh, wow. Who currently has a theme park. Yeah. Steen-up comedy is somewhere in North Carolina for 15, 20 people. I kind of love, too, like once Nate Bargazzi gets big, and this is going to be even more as time goes on. but you can find videos of young Nate Barkatsy.

Oh, yeah. You know? Fat Nate. Yeah, isn't that fun to watch and just to see how they've, how far he's come in his comedy? Yes. Yes, indeed. It's also fun anytime you used to be fat and you can look at it now. Way better than the other way, I'm sure.

There's a lot of people on that. I mean, I don't get mad when y'all put pictures of me up. Like, it's bad, but it's like, it's not now. Yeah, yeah. It's a picture that used to be healthy. Remember when he was in shape? Let's take a look at that. It sucks.

General Hotmail. Good morning, sir. Longtime listener, first-time caller. As the Dumb Zone's official Dallas Stars' hometown hero Marine Cobra Pilot, I will not stand for this continued helicopter bashing. Oh, man. Remember last couple weeks ago, we had like an Army guy or military guy in there who flew a jet. Oh, Air Force guy.

What do you call? Army guys who fly, oh, that's right, Air Force. Jet guy and Mrs. Brandon Aubrey simply don't understand how helicopters work. In an emergency, I can land anywhere. I don't need a runway. Okay. I also don't have the ability to eject, thereby abandoning my aircraft and turning into a cruise missile for folks on the ground to deal with. Okay.

It's going to go down. If I lose both my engines, I can auto-rotate. The blades keep spinning, allow for changing direction, the potential for soft land. if executed properly. And I could put her down in a parking lot, a field, or anywhere else that I want. Anyway, this guy is pissed. He makes good points. About the helicopter slander.

He says, our AI low overlords told me that there are just over seven plane crashes per 100,000 flight hours compared to just over nine for helicopters. But whatever, helicopters are hard to fly and have a lot of moving parts. Did he not just say that there's more crashes? But I think his point is we view them as death traps. So he's saying it's like almost the equivalent of a plane crash, which we find to be rare. It is, but also that's not good evidence. You think this is worse than plane crashes, but it's not that much worse than plane crashes. Here's a long-ass...

That's not good at all. There's a bad email. I'm on that guy's side. I'm not going to say anything bad about him because I don't want to have to feel bad when his helicopter inevitably crashes. No. not getting in a plane again. Well, if... See you in the car.

Yeah, I was going to say, though, if you are worried about possibly crashing, you should lock in an annual before you. This is not a good bit. I don't want you to start doing this. Are we struggling? No. I've got one from...

But I'm just worried about people that are about to die. Those are my people. I've got one from Dirty Dingus McGee. I don't know if that's his birth name or not. Oh, by the way, he also said, I'm jealous that Byron gets Wi-fly on deployment. Must be nice,

in the Air Force. Nobody's out to get each other. I like that. I love that military. Yeah. They hate each other. Alpha.

I like that guy. I took my son to a football camp at Fort Lewis College in Durango, Colorado last week. I saw this sign posted outside their gym. We acknowledge the land that Fort Lewis College is situated upon as the ancestral land and territory of the Ute people

who are forcibly removed by the U.S. government. It is important to acknowledge the setting because the narratives of the lands in this region have long been told from dominant perspectives without full recognition of the original land stewards who continue to inhabit and connect with this land. Thank you for your attention and respect in acknowledging this important legacy. Now what if they also discovered the Ute, whatever, stole it from the Chippewas? Like, what do we do then? Build another plaque. Yeah, I build another plaque. I'm not necessarily against the sign. It's more when they do it out loud.

that it's more annoying to me. Please, a solemn moment for this land. Yeah. Acknowledge it. It's like, I didn't. I don't think I'd ever seen. Why a sign, though? I mean, it's just like...

It's because of your dominant perspective. It'd be like you cheated on your wife or something, and you just got to wear that sign the rest of your life. Scarlet Letter. Yeah. I mean, it's kind of like, well, I don't know. We didn't really deal with these things when they happened. Like, don't you hear that, like, in Germany,

like, right after the war, they were like, all right, here's what we decided. We're definitely going to go with Hitler Bad. Yeah. And we're going to bury that. Not bury it. We're going to acknowledge it and be like, don't.

But we never really did that with a lot of the stuff. We were kind of like, actually it was good. It was so long. It's kind of moved on. Look what we turned it into. Where I just was up in British Columbia, that's everywhere. Up on Vancouver Island.

I mean, a lot of things still have the native names. If you combine, if you combine, If you combine a bunch of liberal... It's very controversial. A lot of liberal whites with, like, ethnic sensibilities, you're going to get some weird festivals. You're going to get some weird... They want to be respectful.

There's a lot happening. Badly. I have a gummy thought. From Adrian. What is a chocolate chip cookie without any chocolate chips called? Is it a sugar cookie? Does that mean all cookies are technically sugar cookies? Yeah, what's the base package?

Is sugar cookie redundant? Or do sugar cookies have more sugar than normal cookies? What is a normal cookie at this point? A chocolate chip cookie without chocolate chips is not a sugar cookie. A sugar cookie is made of different things. I don't know what it is. It's like more shortbreadty or something. And then the chocolate chip is just the...

Interesting. Yeah. Plus you have sugar on top of a sugar cookie. It's got sugar in it and on top of it. Sprinkles, right? We're all just ignoring me. I made a really great cookie point. I'm taking it all in.

Too good of a cookie point. Right. Speechless. Are you out, Jake? Yeah, I might as well be. Well, sorry. We're a way to put that. But now we will do today's news.

It will be brought to us. Oops, hold on. Let's put that at the right level and say it'll be brought to us by Qualis roofing. We have a Qualis drone out here. It flies overhead throughout our broadcast. If you're driving by, if you're on Hewlin, you can. probably see it. That's how we mark all of our big PLEs. Right.

It's kind of like the Goodyear blimp, but it's the Qualus drone. Takes off from Kansas City. That might fly above your house and take pictures of your roof to see if indeed there is damage. And if there is damage, they will do not only the work, but they'll deal with your insurance company. And that's probably the biggest beating of all of it is dealing with that. The back and forth, the phone calls, you're busy. So don't mess with it. Let them do it.

QualisGC.com. If you do get a new roof, then they'll pay for you to get a sit-in to come hang out, do the show. If you get a roof inspection, they'll give you some free Dumb Zone merch. So you might have some money up there. Find out.

817, 500, 900,0008, qualusGC.com. Quallis roofing, we've got drones. Zone news. Oh. That's weird. Navigated away from runp.com. All right.

going to start with this one. Down in Kerr County. This is Kerrville, Johnny Football. They have confirmed their seventh rabies case of 2026. And they found one of us a rabid skunk in a

family's yard. Oh. If only Anna Kaye was back. I know. She's our veterinarian who loves, she has done it before, and she loves to do it. The rabies.

test because she says it's satisfying to cut the head off. Oh, my God. I didn't say it. Why are you guys acting like I said it? What do you mean? Like that's part of the rabies test? You have to cut the head off the animal. See, I thought everyone who grew up in Texas had this same story.

But here, I was taught that if a dog bit you, they were going to cut its head off and send it to Austin. Yeah. And she's had to do that. Do you hear about James' dog? Yeah. Send it to Austin. cut its head off.

So they can test it? Is that to save like UPS fees? Like we really only need the top part. Yeah. Probably. And there's no like just blood test they can do. We have to cut its head off.

No, they had to do this with a cat I had as a kid. Oh. It, um... Do they send the head back when they're done? No. No. So they had to cut its head off? Yeah, they had to cut its head off and send it to A&M.

I don't know why that's funny. to check it for rabies and my mom had to be mom. It bit my mom because it got in a fight or something. It was like in the backyard so we had to scoop it up. And when we took it to the vet, we were unwrapping it and it bit my mom's hand. So he's like, well, we're going to have to put him down and we're going to have to cut its head off and take it. They didn't need to tell you that part, did they? I was, I asked if I could watch.

They had like a tiny little cat guillotine. It was like eight inches tall. A little French flags. Was she like crazy horny after that? Stop. With rabies? You don't know, do you? How would he know?

Don't. Why was I was eight? Yeah, just give me a king, king bed and couch. What are you on? I don't know. It's a rabid woman. I feel like there's been stories.

Perhaps. She's listening to this right now. Well, then she can weigh in. Get to the bottom of this. Okay. I have a dumb question. You've come to the right place. I know.

Settle in. I like it here. So we like have all of our pets, you know, we get them all the shots and the rabies shots and this and that. But like skunks don't get that luxury. Stray cats. So like why don't they all have things? Well, because they're all, no, not, there's not somebody to give them the vaccine. If it's a stray, it's just out there.

Do all wild animals just have a bunch of like? Yeah, I think they do. I think that's why you don't touch them. I think wild animals in general, if you tested them, you'd be like, okay, this one has to go. It's just because this one has been a person. They're all, I think, carries. They all got something. Yeah.

Borrow time. Yeah. In this case, we won't even know because it says the animal was too badly damaged to determine the dog that it bit, I think. but this is a specimen that is too destroyed to test after an exposure, exposure must be treated as a positive rabies case out of an abundance of caution. Abundance of caution is back. Yeah. Ravies and COVID, apparently, elicits the abundance of caution.

This one hits a little close to home. Down in Houston, I think it's KPRC. That's one of their big TV stations down there. and one of their, like, hot lady TV anchors is in the middle of an ethics review after a report. And it's about her and several other, like, prominent people in Houston about getting free tickets to a World Cup game, to a Bruno Mart. Like, they're using the connects. Yeah, duh. That's, I would never.

Yeah. As a journalist, I would never do that. There's some sort of county entity that manages, like, their version of Starplex and they're getting some, you know. Yeah, that's terrible. Some kickbacks. I can't believe she would do such a thing. I know.

What's her name? You're going to be super interested. I'm just a journalist. Danielle Guzman. She's Houston TV. Yeah, she's cute. Could she run for office in Tennessee? For tickets.

Yeah. And they say, you know, I guess it's an ethics thing. You're on TV. You're like, what if... For the news report? Yeah, the news reporters are different, dude. It would feel like it. Like some of them paper reporters, too.

Remember, like going on a Star's Flight or something? Mike Haika used to just... He used to have to just do... Commercial. Yeah. And it was considered a big deal and a bad deal. One of the worst deals we've ever. When...

When the stars offered to pay for his flights or to have him fly on the team plane, like the Dallas Morning News said no. Right. That sucks for him. You're right, because he could just leave right after the game, just hop on the flight. But the appearance of if we're taking something from you, then we might offer better coverage. Which is. Whatever.

Valid. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, they wind and dine you on those planes. and you like them a little bit more. Yeah, but now you're going to compromise. That's right. And I won't be bought. Unless you want to lock in an annual.

Right. All right. Oh, she suspended. We suspended Daniela Guzman. The story last night, they still didn't have that. Unbelievable. They just said she was under investigation. Wow.

She's been investigated. God, it would suck to get in trouble over soccer and Bruno Mars. That has got to be a low ranked. Like, hey, look, I went to go see the Cowboys and Led Zeppelin or something. She's married to Hector Gonzalez. Oh, damn it. Who's that? If it's the same guy, he played football for Eastern Michigan, he'll kick my ass.

A million guys who played football from Eastern Michigan. That's their soccer, though. Yeah. I can't really make hedge or tails of what exactly is happening with the state of Texas and its THC laws. They do have new laws going into effect tomorrow, they say. These were supposed to take place back at the end of March, but there's been injunctions and injunctions and then some junctions and then some more

injunctions. But they say it's supposed to go into place tomorrow. This would have a 0.3% THC limit for consumable hemp products. Hey, we're doing good then. Earlybird, 0.25 milligrams. Well, that's different than percent. Oh. T.HC limit.

I don't. They may have to, like, change their, who knows. But it's clear they're trying to come up with some sort of framework where the people who are already making a lot of money on it, like, that are in government. They're trying to find that line? Yeah. What line are you at? I don't cut the chafe, get the dummies out of here and get it to just the, you know, the people making money on it.

I thought we don't like big government. I'm doing this one for Julie. A man in North Texas, I saw this on, I think it's Spectrum News, but it's from Carrollton, which right out of the gate, I'm not sure about this lead, but it says Texas is one of the country's top birding destinations. Nice. I would think there's got to be half the country's got to be better than us. I mean, I like this. I mean, maybe it's the whole state, right?

It's very pretty, pretty, but I'm just thinking. You got a bald eagle at White Rock. You got a lot of stuff here. But, I mean, if you're going to be into the hobby, wouldn't you be where the, go to the coast? Well, you don't know shit about birding. So how are you just coming up with this opinion? It would just seem to me that... If it says Texas is the best place, then Texas is the best place.

I think people who wrote local news stories sometimes get carried away with... But a dude in Carrollton builds custom birdhouses. and he initially built one to look like his mom's home. Oh. This is the problem. Somebody said, oh. It's cute. And it's brilliant.

And after somebody said, oh, the first time, he started doing it like as a thing. So he makes birdhouses that look like. Oh, you could give him a picture of your house? Wrap around porches,

archways, all right. Cathedral style roofs. Which are this? It's amazing. It's incredible. I mean, everybody's got to put their spectra,

used to work somehow in this case, but it just made me think of how funny the possibilities are here. Birds start complaining about property values. Right. Do they get to sit in on the design? You know, put in their preferences. I think if you're just a person,

he will take your design and make it. No, I mean the birds. The bird probably less, probably less so. Does it need a qualus roof? Yeah. Look at us. It would be very, but it'd be very funny to make him make, like a

mini trident door that's a yeah he can make a little dumb zone sponsor house I want to have it make like for the

AT&T Stadium like how funny would it be if you're like you know how Blake wants to have though or maybe

it was Shane and Collie but wants to the step up dugout porch in his backyard

so you just have you had a bird house that just looked like Kyle Field or something if you're

Aggie guy Game Day Aggie land Game Day Agie land I I like that. The birds deserve that. What do you mean?

Deserve that? Yeah, I mean, why are we the only ones that get these fancy houses? And then birds just land where they would make a home out of sticks and stuff. Don't they like that better? They've never had the opportunity. What do you mean birds deserve that? I don't know. It doesn't make much sense.

I just feel bad for the birds sometimes. A man in Houston fell into a manhole. This was a big worry of mine as a child. Person hole. Quick sand. Okay, sorry, Blake. Here's woke Blake. They never tried person hole, did they?

Human hole? I don't know. Yeah, this is something I was definitely worried about quite a bit growing up. It just felt like you could fall into the street at any time. Don't go to New York City. Oh, you know, another one that I think I accidentally communicated to my daughter was that, you could get sucked into an escalator. Because I saw one...

Oh my gosh. Why would you tell her that? I saw one... I've seen a Faces of Death video before. I think it's in China where a kid doesn't get his shoe out of the way. Yeah. And it gets it. And the mom's trying to pull him and the kids...

This is the problem with people seeing one thing. I know. And applying it to $10 billion. And I wouldn't make like a large life change based on it, but I do tell him like, why don't you just stop over, skip over. So if you're going to get on an escalator, Lock in an annual Berkeley City Council

voted in July of 2019 to replace gendered words in its municipal code changing manhole specifically to maintenance hole Oh wow Berkeley? Yeah

And finally, Armin, shout out to Jake's gastrointestinal pediatrician who finger-blasted young Jake on 9-11 as the second tower fell. Gosh.

That guy's a great memory, but that's a true story. Is there any coincidence that Jake would so bravely commit to sobriety exactly 23 years later. If there was ever a need for a new 15 for 15, keep pulling those piglets from Scott Harper. I just made awkward eye contact with the waiter. Oh, that'll happen. Don't look him directly in the eye.

He was looking at me when Dan said that. I can't remember if Scott has a woman with him on the road. Is he by himself? You have a guy who lives in like he just van travels. I mean, what woman would want to be with a guy just peeing in a bottle and living in a van? He doesn't have a sister. He's adventurous. Yeah.

Something to be said for that. Dear Uncle Dental Dam Daniel. I'm writing to have you wish a happy 20th birthday to my son, George, on Thursday, July 30th. If you're reading this at Zolli's Pizza, 3501, Hewlin Street in Fort Worth, then I definitely didn't procrastinate and wait until the last possible moment to write this. You may remember George from such things as stand-up comedy and Winston Wolf references in group chats.

He used to never listen, but lately has been moved up a tier from never listens to only listens when they're specifically talking about me. Yeah, I've been there. So hopefully this gets read to help you with those imps, from the key barely 20 demographic. Punt Life by the Box. This is from George Brown's dad, George Brown. Nice.

Yeah. George was a hit. Our young comedian. If my name was George Brown, I would like to have named my son, George Brown. Just such a strong name. Just keep it going? Yeah. It seems pretty generic.

I know. The name George Brown. But at some point, that becomes cool. I think that's kind of already happening. His name's not George with an X. Dear Evening's Only Sex Machine. I might be changing on that. Oh, yeah?

Yeah. We might like to get early. Everything's going earlier. You excited to hear about that, Julie? No, I'm watching the Ranger game. I'm thrilled. Everything in the world is going earlier. He's thinking about Dan having day sex.

Oh, God. Has everyone done eating? Well, I'm happy for you. Thank you. What is that? Top of the night? Down a run. What's going on here?

Yeah, it's over. I want to wish my brother Kirk a happy Roy Campanella birthday. He once had his scorecard signed by Justin Leonard at age 10, right before he hit a hole in one. Kirk is conflicted about loving the dumb zone and simultaneously hating Jake's baseball takes. Aw. Because in his words, Jake isn't taking in the whole scope of a 162 game season.

Blown leads don't mean they are unwatchable. His leaders are Romo's F-O-I-A's, Texas Senate candidates whose name sounds like they are Hispanic, but in fact, are super white. Jake's primate human OB-G-Y-N and the NBR. Yeah. What's up to Matt Malone? He admitted me at Trader Joe, admitted to me at Trader Joe's that he gets all his Kirk updates from these birthday shoutouts. Who's in two old today, but? Think you're back?

Anyway, that's Logan. Frisco. And finally, dear Ropes, McDowell, I know, uh, whatever, blah, blah, blah. 728 is the 12th birthday of my travel ball swag lord Vincent. His mother woke him up in that special way with breakfast in bed. Don't even imply it. That's okay. I asked him if he thought Jake could get a hit off of him, and he rolled his eyes.

His leaders are Sarah's stunning intellect. Thank you. Raising him well. I think it's pathetic how all anyone talks about is her milky sheds. I get very excited when I hear her talk about trans rights. Vinny says he could be her reverse Jordan Hudson. Interesting. He's 12.

Well, as we learned at the last counterfeit, so I was 13. Unrelated. I was wondering if you could just take a few moments to describe for us what her hair smells like. It's a very funny email. Weird. Supreme Leader is Queen Bee Blake. Thank you. Chase those coupons.

The proud bees send their regards. Let's see. Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba. From Joel C in Colorado Springs. All right, Joel C. As a kid. I'm going to play a piece of audio just kind of as we go here. All right.

This is from the Trump correspondent's dinner the other night, okay? I saved this for you. I hope that everyone finally got to enjoy their entire very delicious beef tenderloins, very special beef. And I want you all to know that Bobby Kennedy, who's right here, personally ran over the cow and his car. That's a great joke. Got a good one there, yeah. Now, his delivery is awful, and I'm not saying that as someone trying to write jokes.

He should have just said, I hope you're enjoying your meal, right? Instead, he had to flubber around, but once he gets a laugh, he really likes it. And he said, he brought it here for you to eat tonight, so it's very fresh. And Bobby also suggested an appetizer featuring his favorite cut of male raccoon roadkill. But we drew the line at that, Cheryl. We said, no, we're not going to do that. We're not doing that. We love Bobby.

I'll tell you. He's a piece of work. You think it's, it is fun. But he is a very. very different kind of a person. I will tell you. I'd pay so much for the buddy cop of just the two of them. Bobby hit it with his car.

Speaking of cars. Oh, yeah. Fairlease.org presents. Need a car to run over. On this day in history. Yes, where would you go? Fairlease.org. They'll give you a great deal on your next vehicle for you or for your business.

they work with or backed by the credit union of Texas. So there's no bank for them to call. There's no middleman. They're going to give you a great rate. They're going to work with you. And they'll deliver that car right to you like they did to Brandon Aubrey. They delivered it. Deliver it right on a football field for him.

So go to fairlease.org or call Connor or Nick. Those are a fair lease guys, 972-705-4815. It's Thursday, July 30th. that's today. On this day in 1956, President Eisenhower signed a message making, in God we trust the national motto. I thought it was Godi. It used to be

e pluribus unum. Right. Boring. Out of many, one. Which sounds, that seems better, right? Doesn't it seem weird? Like, that seems like... I'm American, so... Yeah, but we changed it. I'm American. In 1956.

We waited like a hundred and... God is the first word the Constitution. Okay. On this day in 19, on this day in 1976 in Montreal, the world record in the

Olympic decathlon was set dead name. By Bruce Jenner. Speaking of running people over with your car. You love that story. She killed somebody. I'll call her she. She killed somebody.

I know. How's Caitlin Jenner doing these days? What's... Would she run in the news? Still be bopping around? Doing her thing? Yeah. Just being a girl.

Is there a dude that has boned Caitlin Jenner? In the world? I feel like I'm the only one who wants to know. I want to know how it works. Like, what is the thing? And I'm not doing that to be insensitive. It's because I'm curious. But you even ask,

oh, you hate trans people? I'm like, no, I just want to. I'm asking too. But is there a dude out there that's like, oh, yeah, I had a one-night stand. What does her face smell like on Saturday? Just tell me. Give me an idea of what sort of part of the body it smells like. You tell me.

Isn't it weird to do it then, though, like when you're that old? Like, I don't know. It just feels like if you got through your whole life, let's just not. Like, did he do it in some ways because he was a reality TV guy and like, all right, I do things big. like this. Like, I'm going to do this because it'll be big. I don't know. I don't want to judge.

I just don't want her to run me over. On this day in 1990, Nolan Ryan became the 20th pitcher to get his 300th career win. But only the third pitcher to not win his 300th game with a complete game. Wow. I guess that just tells you a lot about. Yeah, he saw. He never went that many innings. On this day in 1998,

Do you remember hearing about this? You were young at the time, but it was 13 Ohio machinists. So what? They worked in a factory. They would all bet the powerball every week, and they had done it for 10 years together. And the powerball, like it was a hundred mile drive to even get the tickets. Like one guy had to drive to Indiana or something to even get the ticket. They didn't sell them in Ohio.

And they won it. On this day, they all split. Did it work out amicably? I did a, where are they now this morning? Wow. With Claude. It was, they were called the Lucky 13. Automation tooling systems in Westerville, Ohio, that's just north of Columbus.

Won a record $295 million dollar powerball jackpot. Oh, wait, it says here, it was their first. time. Okay, I'm sorry. They weren't doing it for 10 years. I apologize. But yeah, they sent in one guy had to drive 100 miles to Richmond, Indiana, the nearest place selling Powerball tickets. They all got a lump sum of $12.4 million before taxes. Good for them. Good for them that it worked out. I mean, not only, they may have. As Carmelo Anthony will tell you, that's not that much. Nah, but nobody in there has got to take care of their mom. But only a

A couple of the guys went public with who that, like, most of them stayed unknown. They wanted to remain anonymous so people wouldn't be hitting them up. You live in Ohio. You made the right decision. You'll have the entire state. One man, John Jarrell, did publicly let everybody know he won, and he planned to get his wife, Sandy, a hers, Harley Davidson, to match the one he already had. Oh, my God. That's so, Ohio.

That's great. he's living his best life. Beth reminded us to follow up the other day. I tried to find out about the guy who was heckling Baker, the Seahawks fan. On the Netflix show, they said, well, he won the lottery, and he bought Seahawks tickets, I can't figure it out.

I can't find it out. I wanted to hear more from me, you know? But he may have just won, like, the Seahawks ticket lottery. I think a lot of stuff that NFL and pro athletes probably tell themselves is wildly overblown from what it actually is. Just like your family used to do when you were, do you know about this guy? Not about that guy,

but I have another lottery anecdote, if you don't mind. Go for it. For a long time on the White Sox broadcast, whenever they hit a home run, they would say that's for the Alex Snelliest family in memory of Ursula. And that was just a lottery winner who loved the White Sox and then his wife died.

And that's all that. He didn't have to pay? Oh, he paid a bunch. Okay. Every time. Like, it was like buying a sponsorship. Yes, yes. It's like buying a...

That's what he used his lottery when he was off. My wife died. I want her mentioned every time the White Sox hit a home run. Like... Awesome. That's amazing. That's great. The Bob Steak and Chop House hotline.

Like that kind of thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's great. The Qualist drone. Yes. You know? That is a great... Yes, if you're going to win the lottery.

Yeah. You're going to be watching the White Sox anyways. You love them? And every time, it's for a positive. They hit a home run. Yeah. And they would actually read that. Oh, yeah.

I wonder what that cost him. Great bit, though. And there was stories about him in the Chicago press indicating that he was kind of crossways with his kids over. Spending all that money. What they felt like was their portion. That is, yes. My kids would hate that.

But if you're trying to tell me what to spend it on, Here's a nice middle finger. I'm going to give it to the White Sox Foundation. Right. Wow. That is great. That's awesome. Every Lucas step back three.

Yeah. Your kids are like, God bless, there goes away. And we all remember where we were on this day in 2002 when WNBA player Lisa Leslie became the first woman to dunk in a professional game. They gave her four points for it. We got wings tomorrow. One famous wedding on this date for you, Jake, Nicholas Cage at the age of 40, married someone named Alice Kim, 20. As a 40-year-old.

Can you see yourself marrying a 20-year-old? Boy, you're going to be tweeting like Dale Curry. I thought you were going to say an Asian woman. But it does seem that it happens to a lot of older Americans, like Stevens-A-Gall always had young. No, I can't. I can't imagine. I am not joking when I tell you based on conversations that I have in my life,

I would be much better off dating a 60-year-old than a 20-year-old. Like when I talk to somebody who's like 53 to 57, they feel the same to me. Like you've talked for a few minutes with my daughters. That's not. I'm not even talking about the sex party. I'm much closer to talking to talking to Amy and Beth, drop Beth. I don't know how old they are. but they're older than 20.

Yeah, and I, well, the other way, right? So there's no way. I can't do it. I don't know. They're like a different language. I wonder if they're... You know what I was thinking about last night? Like, do they call restaurants ever?

I don't think they call anybody ever. And I know that's going to be something. I had an image in my head last night of like being old and having my family over and then being like, look at him. He's calling the place. He's like, yeah. So I can talk to. to somebody and find out.

You know what? I don't even think they text anymore. They Snapchat everything. Like that's how they all communicate. We're talking about them like, wait over there. We'll never actually meet one of them. But I've heard that those 20-year-old

Snapchat instead of texting. Nicholas Cage met her in February, married her on this day, July, stayed together until 2016. Much longer than I would have thought. Yeah. She got too old. She got a bit too old.

The Leonardo DiCaprio. She got to be 32. My daughter heard me on the phone. I called a few different stores. That's kind of when they turn. I was trying to buy a pitcher's mound. Come again? I was trying to buy a mound yesterday.

After I threw off a mound, I was like, I want to get one at home. And she was like, what are you doing? I was like, I'm calling to ask if they have it. She's like, is there someone there that just goes and looks? I'm like, yeah. They work at the store. How am I having to explain this to you? They don't, but it's all.

Is there someone there that just goes and looks? All right, July 30th, this day in Dumb Zone history. Let's go back to 2024 when Dan established a new bit. New bit. It's letters to Dan from your pre-ticket days. Oh, is this when we started? I need to bring these up again. The file.

Yes. Yeah, I got a file of just stuff people complaining about whatever I was doing in dates. or wherever. Sea World. Okay, yeah, I've heard. Various restaurants. Local. I think they're all valid complaints. PTAs.

Most of the time. Let's see. Jake did the Reese McGuire Kim Spinn. Do you remember this? God, I don't. It's the catcher who got caught Yankin in public. Oh my God, that's so bad.

And this came up because Cal Quantrell yelled at him, who is now Ranger. Pitch him quite well. Yeah. Yeah, that sucked. Where did he get? He got caught.

Like he was, okay. That's brain draining. Okay. But do you remember the story? He's living with like five or six or seven guys in a little house. And he felt like he had nowhere to get a combat jack off. And he went to, he got caught in a parking lot and arrested. So now all of his minor league teammates know.

Hey, that's the guy that. Terrible. In 2020, Dan told his bird story. I think the Victory Park bird may have buzzed you on your way in. I forgot about that. I got a bird attacked me. I got attacked once. Yeah, those birds were attacked birds for sure.

See, Todd, thanks for having us. Toff canering for all your needs. Yes. We had a bird problem. We did. COVID, like, made them all crazy. That's what it was. There weren't very many humans walking around anymore,

but since we were essentially, employees, well, until some of us weren't anymore. We were the only humans walking around, and then the birds just wanted to eat us and stuff. I'm going to skip to 2021 and then go back to 2020 because we have something big that happened on this day. In 2021, you guys had on Rodrigo the Surfer. Maybe time to check back in with Rodrigo. He is a surf instructor out where we go to camp, and Dan and I took surf lessons together.

in the ocean. That guy was awesome. Do that again. He's so on. He looked exactly how you think he does. We had him on. He's like, all right, hang loose, dudes. That's the life.

All right, then the big thing. Get a van. In 2020, during why today doesn't suck, Jake said he thinks the Cowboys will never have training camp in California again. Bob responds. He guarantees a 16 game schedule and a Super Bowl. Jake bets $1,000.

Bob denies, proposes no golf for six months, or if Bob wins, Jake grows a beard for six months. Wow. Bob won. Yeah, there was actually quite a few. Now, the Cowboys training camp one,

I don't know, it was either better or worse than the football season one, but people forget how touch and go that was, dude. Like during the year, they were canceling games. They were moving games to Wednesday at two people.

and it just seemed like there's no way. There's no way they're going to get all these in. Oh, you're talking about the vid. Yeah. Oh, yeah. The year that they were like, I don't know if we can play the suit. So because of COVID, you were saying they'll never go to California again. Yeah.

It was a weird time. Well, I mean, yeah. We didn't know what was going on. Yeah. And I, you know, didn't have a beard. And so at the next training camp you had your beard, Bob said he would let you out of the beard if you watched boyhood. You denied. You got to stack your bits

Boyhood You see that It's actually pretty good That's not the one that like goes backwards In age Yeah Oh it is Or not backwards

No he Benjamin Button Yeah He followed a He actually filmed a kid For like what 15 years, 10 years Everyone Richard Linklater

From Days of Confused From Austin Uh huh He He like started a story about this kid who would grow up and his parents would get divorced and how the kid developed.

Well, he started filming this when the kid was like eight and he would go back every year and do more scenes. And it took him 10 or 12 years to complete the movie. Okay. Because the kid, he wanted the kid to grow up and be like a college age when it was over. Yeah.

It was amazing. Yeah. I just thought it was awesome. And it was actually a very good movie, especially for a fellow latchkey kid like my buddy Jake, who just like me, came from a broken home.

Yeah, same. And are you broken? Yeah. Okay. I didn't know that. We should have coffee and talk about this. Anyway.

Jake already beat you to the punch. He invited her to lay on his bed. Oh, that's right. Damn it. Not mine. Everybody gets a new bed, because it's a Brooklyn bed. That's right.

Yeah. I'll watch Boyhood. You sold me. Anyway, we now go to other birthdays. Alex Gologoski is 41, Julie. Goose. He's a good one.

I can't. I don't know what you think of Arnold Schwarzenegger, but whatever it is, you need to watch pumping iron and get back to me. Is it great? It is incredible. He is legitimately hilarious. You may have already known that, but just it's great. It's one of the best documentaries I've ever seen.

It's just about him lifting weights. It's great. Now, I guess there wasn't, well, I just wonder, what is the longevity of bodybuilders? Well, he's... Is it not good if you Royed? Well, yeah, Royd's a part of it, but he's, you know, you don't want to be Ronnie Coleman.
