I'm Blake Jones. It means I ordered them on my way up here, and they were waiting for me when I walked in.

Oh, you do the Amics. You don't get to claim that. My six special ingredients. You don't get to claim pickup. I just did. They handed it to me when I walked in. Kemp style is ordering on the app. They didn't throw on everything.

thing you can on the Tequito. Well, anyway. It's a great day. Where are we? Pioneer Parkway and the bush-ish. You're asking the wrong guy. What do you mean? Do you go to the wrong one?

I didn't go to the wrong one, but I think I sent Marv to the wrong one. Yeah, I heard about that. Perhaps. There's another one on the bush. We have a show calendar. We just hit copy. This is like the Houston. This is like the Houston of the bush.

There's one up there, but if you keep going, it goes forever. and there's a The bush does It gets a lot lower than you think Yeah Yeah So yeah

Pioneer Parkway And The Bush And the bush And the bush And the bush And we are here today

For another Car tray Giveaway Plenty of people are here You know it's okay An okay remote When you have to park

At a different establishment People at Panned Express are very confused. Parking lot is full at 8.30. So the car trays, oh, we're not giving them away quite yet, but there is, Marve. There is somebody just taking two car trays. She could just take two car trays, huh?

Okay. I don't currently have a tray, so if we could end the day with me having a tray. Yeah. I would like that. What we would like to do is give those trays. away and i thought like we would be starting the show and the trays they would already be a line there was a plan we can't talk about it and get up and so but but i feel like they're going to start giving them way any time there's a lot of people standing around waiting for their trays one

one would ask what we're waiting why are we not giving them we had a whole like right at nine o'clock well yeah it's it's after nine o'clock it's four after nine right now and uh anyway um now Travis did have one guy that we were putting in the front of the line. He was the guy, the last guy at the last Waterburger remote. He was standing right there to wait for a tray. With his head pressed up, his face pressed up against the window. When T.C. has handed him or handed it to the other guy in front of him. So that guy is the ceremonial first tray receiver.

Yeah, wow. Really, what a moment. What a day. Big, yeah. Congratulate him. Now he just walks out. What an interesting. Oh, okay.

That's fine. No, you're good. Take it easy, man. Also, what we have here, remember Nate from Silverback Construction, had given us some, a bunch, not some. He bought $250 worth of gift cards, and if you want to grab some breakfast while you're out here today, going up to the counter, mention the dumb zone, and while the gift cards last, they will give you one, and you'll probably have your breakfast paid for it for you. Incredible.

What a deal. From what I understand, Travis will be out here later as well from Community Mechanical to do some similar shenanigans. Maybe he will wrestle Nate from Silverback. They were sizing each other up earlier. They do the little dance where they walk around one another. I think they did the way in over in the corner over there. You know how sometimes you meet a friend and they're like, what's the best show you've ever watched and you say The Wire? And they say, I haven't seen that.

And quickly, you're very like, wow, man, I'm jealous. Your life, your entertainment perspective is about to be changed. That's how I feel about all these people in line right now. They think, oh, there's a little dumb, drunk radio guy who eats in his car. He's got a little thing. This is more than that. Do we have a pen in case anybody? Bye, ma'am.

What's up, buddy? Like a Sharpie-type thing for autographs? It's quite presumptuous, but... That is, and... I don't think I have the silver one. Oh, okay. We have rose gold this time. Gold.

Rose gold. it's all the rage so go get you a gift card come on out here yes grand prairie is where we're at the bush and pioneer parkway or 161 in pioneer parkway if you think the bush is just a number to you and we'll be doing a program here till noonish uh so jake got to eat breakfast here oh yeah and then we'll have a little lunch

i don't even want to tell you how fired up I am for Monday's weekend check, or I suppose Tuesdays. I have three straight nights of no kids. Damn, dude, how are you doing this? And I didn't even ask for it. It just kind of happened. This is what you get when you have grandparents left him right. Well, you should know this.

Yeah. Yeah, because, you know, one of them's down the street, but then the other ones are like, well, they see them so much. Maybe I need a night with him. Wait, caveat. You have grandpa, but you also have other siblings who have kids and all that. Very. Jake's grandparents are starved.

Undivided. for grandchildren. They have none except from Jake. Right. So they are over. And then there's a battle. Like if grandma sees that grandpa got a day with the kid, oh, well, why don't we get a day with the kid?

Is that how this goes? I would think. Yo. I think so. And for us, it's fully undivided. And sometimes things happen where they just offer. And it's a little weird because it feels like they're sensing tension. But my wife just offered to watch the kids last night.

And then it kind of took a weird turn where she's like, you guys don't need to feel bad about this. Your wife or your mom? My wife feels bad about it. And I'm telling my mom. And she's like, I'll watch the kids. I'm like, well, Kristen feels a little bad about it. She's like, you shouldn't feel bad about it.

It's good for a relationship. I wish your father and I would have thought of this. Oh, wow. Dude. She kind of just blamed you for the divorce. Invertingly, yeah. It's like, I kind of always. If it wasn't for you kids being around, maybe our relationship would have been out doing stuff.

together but uh i am going to uh the the orchestra saturday night to go see juvenile new orleans rapper that ron washington used to work out to in the outfield with a symphony i thought you were just going to get cultured no uh because what's wrong with a nice symphony what's wrong of that on a date night everything oh you know i mean i'll go to i guess i've never done it i was gonna say you We've got a lot of... But I mean, it's classic, right? The Cleveland Philharmonic. They are world famous.

I'm sure they are. That feels very bore at. Like the Dallas Orchestra. We have biggest go to the U.S. Somehow they have a good hospital, the Cleveland Clinic. And they have the Cleveland Philharmonic. And the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. There's not a joke anymore up there.

You know, nobody's going to make fun of Cleveland. No more Cleveland jokes. But we got football. We got Monday off. Nothing bad can happen to us. It's already happened. I talked to Jake last night. Was he crying?

He was very sad. He was despondent. This is a different Jake. Because of soccer practice or because of Micah? Well, I think it was because of Micah, but he was on his way to soccer practice. So maybe it was. Yeah, let me give you another realizing he's about to get cucked by the rest of the parents.

We've talked about. this before, but somewhere along the line, we went way overboard in lightning overreach. Like lightning warning overreach. Oh, yeah. Ooh, it was. The skies were darkening

when I was... It's soccer. What's that mean? I feel like in baseball, you're holding a metal bat that at least scares you a little bit. Yeah, it's still... I mean, and then everybody's looking around, like, is anybody just going to ignore this shit?

Because I was ready to. But then the first... There's a mom coaching a team, just the mom's coaching a team. team, and they're like, we're out of here. So now we look like a-holes if we stay out there. Got cut short. So practice broke up?

Yeah, pretty quickly. Pretty quickly. The drive there and back was longer than practice. We'll put it to you like that. Okay. But no, yeah, of course I was sad. The snowflake culture we live in. I know.

Of course I was sad. I thought you were trying to get the best out of your girls. They used to make us stay inside and wait until they saw lightning, and then they would send us out there. We practiced in a tornado. We had to wait a half hour for the lightning, too. appear. And now it's just a... They're like, now it's not close enough. Stay in. No, no, no. Take your water break, yeah.

You don't know what gender they are. Did the counting when the thunder. They're out there for a lot. Yeah, I don't know. But yeah, fired up. It's a great day. Let's just act like this didn't happen. Okay. Well, we kind of have to cut it. Blake has a big day. Argyle has a massive matchup tonight. Yeah. It's going to be a big one. You are dressed all Argylly. T.C. told me that somebody out here wanted to talk a little ball with you when they saw your your eagle shirt.

Yeah, Brody Beaumar's grandpa's down there. We talked a little ball. Okay. Wait. The Brody Bomar? The. Relation?

For what? Therette? No. Okay. No. No, I'm ready? Yeah. Week one.

Mike Leslie will be there. You got to let the Mike Leslie thing go, man. No, it's all that matters. You got to let it go. Well, so yeah, coming out here to Waterberger. What's their, What's the special they want us to really pump? Oh, heck yeah.

They've got that a Wrangler burger. Then we'll get into Micah. The bacon wrangler double. Okay, is it too early for that? Yeah. Okay. Well, it's not too early in my mind. It's too early, I think, from the menu.

I don't know if they'll give it to you. But they got the Dr. Pepper Blackberry shake. You can definitely get that. Have you had one? Not yet. I've seen a couple around the restaurant, and I almost took a sip of theirs, but I'll get my own. What have you had today, Clayton? Oh, I don't know, Mike?

Clayton had his breakfast on a bun on Texas toast. He was really proud of that. Okay. Clayton is, like, it's not like because we're at Waterburger, Clayton's eating Waterburger today. I can't remember the last time I've seen him walk into the studio or the den without a Waterburger cup. It's a good cup, too.

It is a good cup. So, anyway. See, dude. Happy Waterburger. And yes. Happy car tray. Remember, when you get one of these car trays, this costs more than the car tray you could have got in Frisco. China.

Tariffs have taken effect, and it did substantially affected the cost of these. You know what we said? Yeah, we said we're in. Yeah. Because that's the way we are. So do you want to make some opening remarks on the moment? Micahist. So, yeah, what a shock very soon after we stopped recording yesterday. We see the news come down. It was really funny, just the whole, I don't know, the last couple of days.

There was a lot of Dallas media getting pretty high and mighty on the, uh, the, uh, this is all an internet creation. This whole rumor to Green Bay, it's fans, it's internet. It's, it's internet. It's, it's, There's absolutely nothing to it. Certainly the Cowboys would never trade him to an NFC team that has broken their hearts in the playoffs the last few years or quite a few times over the past decade or so. I heard Machota point out last night, there are three best teams over the last, let's say, 15 years,

all lost to the Packers. It was like 14, 16, and then 23. Because those teams, you know, it's Deskatch. It's the Aaron Rogers Drive, and then it's 23. 23 was devastating. And we can talk about that at some point today if you want, because my main issue with this is the timing. It sucks from an excitement standpoint,

because the team, he's a guy that you stand up off your couch to watch. The thing that I think Luca and him have in common is they're the type of guys who you watch and they can get you into the sport. They're that appealing where you just watch and think something crazy is going on with this one. But in a vacuum, not paying a pass rusher $47 million is not like an indefensible move. It's the fact that they backed themselves into this corner, or Jerry did, where this was really the only option.

He'd pissed off the players so much and the agent so much and confirmed that last night that he actually got what he wanted, which was Micah and the agent coming groveling back to him, which apparently they did in the last week, saying we wanted to engage with empathy unlike when they first approached him after the April meeting and said this is the agent speaking we're starting at zero so they came back in

somewhat grovelling at least in Jerry's mind I bet and he said we're done here you can play on the fifth year option this year and then we'll talk next year and at that point you had to trade him because he was going to be a problem all year and so the question is

why didn't you just fire Mike McCarthy after the Packers game, let your quarterback walk and trade him then. He was an all-pro. Instead, they signed their quarterback to a way above market value deal, then signed a receiver to pair with him for five years, then traded for another elite receiver so that they can score a lot of points, and now they can't get to the quarterback, at least on paper. It doesn't fit.

All of it doesn't fit together. They're not driven by any sort of price. process where you know that Howie Roseman is involved with the negotiations with the backup linebacker and Jalen Hertz. Jerry only gets involved when it's on television. So by nature of that, there's no cohesive plan. They have all these plans that they're working on and these processes. And then when it's a big time player, Jerry's like, showtime. And things get effed up. I think that's the biggest foul up here is the way that this happened is Very suboptimal, but do not compare it fully to Luca, in my mind.

Luca broke me. Our friend David Ruff from circling back tweeted that last night. A part of me died that night. I can't feel about sports that way ever again. Well, this wouldn't have done that either had Luca not happened. I don't think. It wouldn't have done that, but that softened the blow for me, I think. Because, of course, the thing with the Luca thing, we even said, you know.

You could remain a fan of the team if it turned out that it came to a contract, stalemate. And he wanted to leave. I want to leave, and I asked for a trade. Micah asked for a trade. Micah's to blame for this as much as Jerry, I think. For sure. Just because Micah should have never been talking to Jerry in the first place. And I think his agent is to blame for this.

When we were talking last year, playing Micah kind of talking cash with Bleacher, report, or whoever, why didn't his agent that day step in and say, gag order, what are you doing? But he kept doing it. He probably did. And he just doesn't listen to him. Because that's why. He knows how to do things.

And then April. I'm a young kid. I'm on the internet. You don't understand me. He talks too much. Because then April comes around. Him and Jerry are talking. You know Jerry pulled out all the stops in that meeting.

He's probably crying, telling him stories about cut up credit cards and pouring it all out. And they come to this deal. Jerry feels like, I've done my show, and then the agent says, come on, you know it's just Micah. Like, we're starting over here. Right. But that's the problem. Or they wanted to start.

Maybe they settled at $40 million or whatever the price was. And then he's like, well, that's where we'll start. Now that I know you can get there. Yeah. I mean, I feel like the agent, it's tough to say the agent didn't play this correctly. He kind of played it perfectly. But he also had a hand in getting him out of Dallas based on his ego matching up with Jerry's, I believe. I don't think Micah's bummed.

I watched a bunch of Instagram stories last night. Oh, no, he's not bummed. Dude, they're popping bottles. It is the biggest celebration. He's running around, going yelling, we rich, bitch. Yeah. We finally made it. I thought you would enjoy that since you've been talking about how he could have just gotten franchised

and had life-changing money. Last night was the moment where he was just yelling, we finally made it. Yeah, that's the thing, too. But he has been very honest and open about how players think. Where I've always said in the past, that's the way players actually think. Like, they want to get to that contract, and they think made it is getting to the contract, whereas the fan wants you to think making it is that you won the Super Bowl. Like, what's your real goal?

Sure. And as we, you know, we play the game of, oh, no. Like he said, I play for the name on the back, not the front. That's the first time I've really ever heard anybody say that. It's literally what my dad used to bitch about. These guys are playing for the name on the back. He's like, yes. And the more you can pay me to do that, I will leave the name on the front. Some of the things you were saying, though, 47 million. Do you know the breakdown? Because Jerry in the press conference was alleging that he, His offer actually was more guaranteed than this current offer that he just signed.

I don't know, I mean, I know it's been reported. The 136, I think, was the number of guaranteed. But I know that a lot of people were throwing shots at his agent on Twitter last night. Like, oh, these are cute numbers, but it's fluff and funny money, I'm sure. And his agent was talking his shit. He was retweeting every one of them like, yeah, we'll see. We'll see how much fluff there is here. I think the Packers legitimately decided as one of the greatest talent evaluation operations we've ever seen.

This wins us a Super Bowl. There is not a price that's too much. He's that good. And if we put him on this team, we can't be stopped. So the difference between 47 and 42 to them, way less important than the pigs. That was interesting that I saw the agent now all of a sudden he's on Twitter and talking trash. Really? Yeah.

That happens every time. Part of the game. Then I just wrote a couple notes when you were rolling there. When you said he had to trade him because then he knew he was going to be a problem. Because also in Jerry's mind, somewhat he's old school. And he does, you know, supposedly Michael was talking about, I'm going to be a team leader and I'm stepping up this year and because part of this giant contract is being that team leader that others can follow.

Well, once you lay on the table during the game, once you make it known that it's going to be a problem having me in the locker room, that's not a phrase that you attach to someone who is a leader of a team. Like a leader of a team doesn't become a malcontent that's walking around not practicing, lying about his injury. Yeah. Because especially if he's playing week one or like he's practicing tomorrow, it was just a blatant lie. And probably even the fact that he was going to get a second opinion, you know, will prove that.

Yeah, I wonder. It feels like we were trying to make the... A team leader, though, doesn't do that. We were trying to make the Micah Leadership Glove fit all offseason. And I'm not saying the guy can't lead people, but I don't know that he was ever really. It's very hard to be that much of an individual and be a leader. It's very hard.

Because at some point, you know, you're going to be talking about yourself and what you've done well and you're not going, like he would kind of trash his teammates in not so many words on his podcast every week. I got we can't stop. I mean, we can't stop the run. What do you think? the room is like now?

I don't know for sure, and I'm not in there, but knowing a few people in and around, I would not expect this to be a massive hit in the locker room. I'm not saying there aren't buddies on the team. I'm not saying CD tweeting out the broken heart isn't for real, but I don't think Dak Prescott woke up unhappy today about this. I don't. And he's stuck here, so he doesn't keep.

He's like, all right, if we get picks for a couple years from now, that'll actually work out for me. So please stop with Arch Manning. They owe DAC a billion dollars. It would cost them like $130 million to cut him next year. He's here, dude. They signed that contract less than a year ago, and they made him the highest paid quarterback in the league,

and no one's even close in the intervening year. He's stuck here. You're not getting another quarterback. Well, and that's why also Jerry didn't, you know, Again, there is no consistency with the way the Cowboys do things. Once you've given a quarterback that much money, you are so pot committed. Just do everything else. Go get George Pickens, keep Micah, get a running back, and then die.

But that's the one time that actually the contracts didn't keep escalating. And I think that's a big part of it. When he signed Romo, that was kind of the highest deal in the NFL. But two days later, it was somebody else. like it kept escalating. Dak, he signed it to the highest paid, and he's still the highest paid. Yeah. And that's where...

It's like the matcher tying Kobe's number. But that's where his... Again, he will shift with the waves. So he had Michael Irvin. He was in a lot of trouble. They could have drafted Randy Moss. I don't know. That could be a lot of trouble again.

I'm not going to draft Randy Moss. He saw how great he was. Okay, next time it's up. Here's a Dez. Could be a lot of trouble. I'm going to draft him. so same thing it just goes back and forth to whatever happened to me last and what happened to me last was I signed this huge deal I was assured that this is just going to set the market for a day and it's going to keep going up you better get in now and then I was told that again with Micah I'm not believing that now and it's this these numbers that you know I've just been rehashing my whole history on why how much I paid for the Cowboys and now I'm seeing how much I'm going to pay this guy and this guy is going to cause a problem in the locker and this guy was just laying on the

thing and this guy like no he doesn't fit and that's why the DAC thing he even though he references it every five minutes he kind of probably feels okay with paying DAC that money because DAC bent the knee or plays the game or didn't kept his mouth shut never publicly challenged Jerry Jones you know what's funny is so David Mulligetta is Micah's agent that's athletes first is the agency Todd France is Dax agent, which is the same agency. And I saw some agents last night writing about how, I don't know if any of you all have seen the video, but Dax agents set down at some point in like the last six months

and talked extensively about that negotiation. And kind of talked about how they fleeced the Cowboys and how they put them, like they used the Cowboys name against them, kind of. And like, here's how we got Jerry where we wanted him to. And this guy was putting forth the idea. He didn't like that. the idea that these guys are like yeah here's how we got him to go to this number and we put him in this bind that jerry's not the type of dude to forget that that he knew that and was like

we may lose mica but it's not going to be because you know there was an overpay on the table uh that we couldn't match it's going to be because it was one we wouldn't match and a match is you know obviously the cowboys were never going to pay mica that much and then the other thing too tc and i were talking about this last night the five and four year thing The Packers will give you four. The Cowboys want five, which is interesting because it used to be the other way around. The player wanted more, the team wanted less, and that seemingly is flipped. But the reason the Cowboys want five years, and teams like the Packers or the Eagles can do four years or three years is because they guarantee all that money.

That allows them to spread it out. To have like a spread out cap hit, you have to be willing to guarantee that money because it's going to go to the player. The Cowboys don't want to do that. they don't want to be on the hook for anything more than a year or two you know on average down the road and this is why they stay good but not great they're never pushing enough in um and that's the same sort of deal here they probably told miko we want four and he said well i'm going to i'm going to shop this around do you think the timing of the documentary has anything to do with it i can't tell you how much i think it has

to so okay so that was my first thought my first thought yesterday was documentary is a Psiop to wreck our season. I blame this whole situation on Netflix. It's unbelievable. What's the guy's name? Let's get a hold of him. He had just sat there watching this documentary, and in every press conference, he waxes nostalgic.

He keeps bringing up the Herschel Walker trade. Then people talking about who was really responsible for the Herschel Walker trade. He wants everybody to know that he was. He's the gambler. I do things that people don't think I should do. And look how it turned out. Look at the stadium. And look at the Forbes just yesterday, I think, released again, right?

They went up another 27%. They're worth $13 billion now, at least according to Forbes. So he wants credit for being the big deal maker, you know, and watching all these, wow, I forgot about that crazy press conference I had when I bought the team. And look at this press conference. I kicked ass. Let's go having it. You know what?

I'm not dealing with all this stuff right now. Let's trade this malcontent. We'll move forward. I'm the guy. I'll have a press conference. conference and uh everybody will know who made this deal this wasn't brian schottenheimer of all things that pulled the trigger on this this wasn't stephen this was me i made this deal i made the call right away you have defied me you have challenged me publicly players don't do that players are my friend

you don't just go to war with me publicly and uh it's a pretty crazy you're spot on It might seem like a pretty deranged reaction, but every single person in this room would do the same thing if you sat there and watched an eight-hour documentary about how badass you were. You'd come away from it thinking, like, I'm God. I could trade Michael Parsons. It's not a mid-life crisis.

I don't know what life he said. It feels younger than me. I want to make sure, though, like, I'm still in the game. And he said it last night. And I wrote about this last week. This is the problem. He's addicted to the juice. He's got to have some action.

some skin in the game, and he likes the moment and the sizz. And I can tell you, as an overly emotional person, it helps to recognize that and be like, I should try to stay away from that. Jerry's like, that's my whole shit. I'm just going to get really emotional, really tied up in the moment, and see how it shakes out. And that's why they drunkenly stumble from decision to decision, and sometimes they end up on one that's somewhat sensible. And you think that this is that?

I mean, it's a weird deal. I don't, here's what I really hate. They drafted him in 2021, okay? So they're talking about how bad their run defense has been. In 21, they spent the least amount of money on their interior defensive line in the NFL. In 22, they jumped up to 31st. In 23, up to 30th, and in 24, back down to 32nd. The entire time they've had Micah, they've spent by very first.

far the least on the rest of their defensive line. They drafted Mazi. That was pretty apparent that that wasn't going to work out of the gate. He's still on the team, but that's one guy. They've drafted no other big one-tech nose tackles. So they've done nothing for their run defense. They get punched in the mouth for four years. And somehow they wake up and they're like, this is crazy.

We can only rush the passer. We're just going to have to trade the only good player we have on defense to solve this problem. Rather than the second you draft him, you start thinking, we have to be getting guys who can stop the run. We don't need to go draft Sam Williams for the other side. We don't need to go draft Marshawn Neeland in the second round for the other side. Or Donovan Azaraku in the second round this time, although that one might have been because they thought Michael was leaving. But my point is, they did nothing to help their run defense. It's not his fault.

He's fine against the run, but it's not his position. So they did nothing else. And then all of a sudden they're like, well, this is the only solution of this problem. I don't know. You could have like stopped drafting edge rushers or stop drafting tight ends. There were plenty of times they could have drafted defensive tackles. Plenty of times they could have signed them. They did nothing.

And now they're blaming the reason that they get curbstomp by tough teams on the only guy who shows up for them. It's bullshit, in my opinion. That's the part of their backwards of logic, retrofitting logic onto this that I don't like. you think the green bit you think packers are going to be bad at poor against the run i doubt it so the player they got by all accounts is pretty good but declining a little bit and also 30 years old yeah 30 in october and yeah pretty good in 23 they say he was hurt in 24 but i'd be lying if i told you i knew more about the guy than his pff grade throughout the years every week when you look is good but then they haven't had anything like him in a long time

Two first-round draft picks, which you would think are going to be pretty late round because the Packers, you know, have a young quarterback, have a... Jordan Love injury history? Game record, yeah, yeah. It's one of the few things you can root for right now. It's the vision, as Nico would say. That's right. That...

Going back to when you were talking about, you know, what they should have done. was just fire McCarthy, strip that down. Like that is if we're going to actually be a rebuilder, which when your owner is 82, that's not happening. You're not going to get in rebuilding mode. So whether you believe them or not, they're going for it now. Like they think this. I'm going to, let's just all take our wild prediction shots.

When he said last night, hey, you know, we could trade one of these first round picks. I think the most cowboy thing I said this to the Soroy's last night I wanted to trade a first round pick for a running back in like week three My first thought was Breeze Hall Immediately when he said that Then probably they'll get back like a fourth or a third

And they'll get a running back But dude Jerry's feeling himself right now So you know he's thinking Like can we put a little gas on this thing Like I don't know how much I need these future picks I don't have a future So it's funny how He is the

He's the gamboling and the dealmaker with the first round pick or the top players on the team. Right? He's not making deals for... That's why it's a mess. He's not interested in negotiating with Maris Leofal. Right, just when he's talking about, oh, we do all, I do all the contracts one-on-one. No, he doesn't.

He didn't with Dak. No. And it's because Dak initially said, this isn't my game. I play, talk to the people who do this, and then he did, or they did. But he only seems to be concerned with it when it is the first round picks. He wants to say in that. Yeah. And negotiating contracts with Des, with Zeke, with, you know, the big names, he'll get in on that.

Otherwise, he leaves it to everybody else. And to Blake's point, again, I think the documentary has a lot to do with it. He randomly started talking about how they put cameras in the draft room last night when he was just like, you know, I love the media. Remember, I put cameras in the draft room. The only reason anybody remembers that is because it was on Netflix last week. Nobody's been talking about that for 30 years. And somehow he thinks he swindled the Packers because he said the Cowboys were not interested in trading Micah Parsons. Like that's a big media tactic.

Got one on Stephen A. Smith there. He's like, oh, yeah. Like I'm going to. Wizard of Oz over here. Hey, we could use one of these first rounds to make a trade. Wait, so now you, what are you doing? Are you now snowing the rest of the league because you actually won't trade one of those first rounders? I just want them to play football.

I just want the team to play football and us to watch. I liked how they were framing it last night, too, kind of like a, they were trying to make it sound like they traded him for four first rounders. Because they kept saying, we got four first rounders in the next two years. Four first rounders, and they also, Jerry was like, these picks, that could turn into three, five players. You know, like, are you already making these suck? He could get you, like, tons of thirds for these. Like, the whole sell job is weird.

But I don't have to make any sort of, like, am I bailing on the Cowboys decision like I did with the MADS? Right. You're right. That's an entirely different situation. The only thing is, I mean, it is funny. It'll be a national, like, every game you see. We're so screwed.

All we have is each other, folks. This is going to suck. When the NBA shows. is a Lakers game. They'll mention... Michael Parsons. When they, you know, game one next Thursday. There will be a Luca graphic up there when the Cowboys play the Eagles.

We can't escape it. They're working on it now. It's going to be horrible. In fact, it's probably animated and really annoying. I'll tell you what I hate about, well, many things to hate about the Internet, but I don't like... Why don't you focus on the good stuff? I don't like already seeing Michael Parsons wearing a Packers uniform. Like, what if we wait until we puts one on, take a picture of it, and then put that out?

God, there's a cloud over there. You want to go, yeah, all right. Give it a piece of your mom. How about establish the wrong guy. Are you with me? Let me get off your grass. Are you with me? Photoshop.

What is this magic that you, like, he's never been in a Packers uniform. No, I think the thing we're all, and yeah, at that point you just made is that that's going to be a tough one. We're about to get a full frontal psychological assault, you know, when you're on calls. Did you know Clay and Kershaw? And they're like, where are you from? Oh, Dallas. Like, oh, damn, dude, you a sports fan? You got another six months.

They just reset the counter to zero on the days since. Did your neighbor come over? He called me. I bet he did. That's right. You had a story yesterday about your packer neighbor. That was my first thought, is Jake has a flag now. He offered it.

He offered it. And I'm like, I don't, I just, that's not, it's not the same. It's not the same. I'm happy he's going up there. I think it'll be fun to watch them ride the roller coaster of the edge brought to you by nationwide insurance every week because it's a, It's a wild ride. I have, if you want to talk about differences between Micah and Luca,

I have more confidence that Luca will be really great in three years than I do Micah. Well, that's also the curve of performance, right? Luca could be good for, I mean, he's not LeBron, but edge rushers kind of fade by 32, 33. You know, and that's only so many Vaughn Miller's out there. I just don't know if Micah is that hard of a worker either. That's, I don't, well, I've heard things, but. Even from Micah himself, when he was on that Undertaker podcast, he was talking about when he went to work out in this offseason with Miles Garrett,

he couldn't believe what Miles Garrett was doing. That's not good. Like he, you don't want to hear that. Like he, he's like, oh man, you really do have to, like, he couldn't, he was huffing and, like, He was very taken aback by how hard Miles Garrett trained. That's interesting, because he does get tagged with breaking down. He also plays a lot of snaps. I feel like that should be mentioned because they ask a lot of him.

But the real crushing blow here is that we were all waiting for the debut of the Terence Parsons and Tad Prescott podcast. Oh, no. We had had teased so many times. Boy, Micah's brother on Twitter has been a... awesome ride over the last couple days. Really? Yeah, he's full Johnny Drama, dude. He's just on the internet, reading everything, playing Madden against fans and talking trash,

planting rumors. It's just, it's a different world out there, man. And hadn't heard from Tad Prescott. I'd like to hear Micah do a podcast. Oh, I bet that'll be tough to book. I am pretty interested. No, not like his podcast. Well, yeah, yeah, yeah, I know what you mean.

But you have to remember, too, he is Bleacher Report buddies with Jordan Love. Oh. C.J. Stroud, too, right? But I think he's done some stuff with Jordan Love. It'll be on, he'll be on with Jordan Love. So you're better with a Packer trade than the Eagles trade? For a hundred different reasons. But the biggest one, and I think Jerry is defendable on this, trading them in your division is insane.

But the NFC, that doesn't factor in for me at all. As he said, they wanted to get a defensive tackle. They had to have somebody who was willing to pay Mike a billion dollars. You can't just be scratching people off just because they've, you know, bent you over three or four times. I actually think that he deserves credit for doing it in spite of that. Because some teams would be scared off by that. That's a bad way of doing business. The focusing on a defensive tackle makes me think there's a look of analogy.

Like you are limiting yourself on certainly had you opened up the market before the draft. The Mavericks were not a bad defensive team when they made the finals. They were good, like really good, especially down the stretch. The Cowboys were verifiably at one point last year the worst run defense in NFL history. so Nico whole cloth out of thin air being like it's just because we can't play defense we're a terrible defensive team when they weren't the cowboys actually are they can at least like you said before like making it a defensible sports position for why and everyone was like no dude no we're not buying that but when it comes down to both guys it does seem like a it got personal and that's why both trades were made definitely i feel like you know and everybody's been saying it over the last couple days but the old heads in the media i've seen edwarder say it a bunch of times the don't let your money get mad thing which is weird because jerry's the one who i heard that phrase from and i felt like

he does it all the time like routinely um but that's his advice you know and it feels very much like the money got mad here and uh one more conspiracy theory as far as why the packers uh Another one of my buddies is like, there's no way they weren't trading them to a team they were playing this year. They're going to own like eight days of media. They already, it's the Cowboys, but Jerry loves it. I don't think that, but. No way. I don't put anything past them.

Like they looked at the schedule. Yeah, I got up. This will be a little bit of a lull. Why don't we pop Micah in here? I mean, what do you think about the locker room? Do you, does it seem to you guys like, man? No. You know what?

Do you want to weave in some jerry office? audio? Sure. Because. Is Julie coming? Is Julie arriving at Waterburger later? Well, yes. Unnecessary.

Well, he's the one who was like, she is arriving at some point. Okay. But she's got stuff going on. Okay. So here they were talking, Jerry had said early in the press conference, this is a cut from late, that this was a unanimous decision from the coaching staff. And I think he's going to be asked about that again. And then he will talk about the locker

room a little bit. You said that it was a unanimous decision to make this deal today. Yes. Who was involved in that process? The entire coaching and the representatives of the entire coaching as well as our entire front office, everyone that is involved that has an interest in going forward that we counsel with. And as I've told you many times, contrary to maybe something it's written sometimes to what. I really do get huge input and and dialogue and opinions from everybody in our organization and this was unanimous. Was the Leadership Council of the players part of that part of that talk?

People that were on it were certainly had commented at points informally because of the fact that we were around the training camp and we got members that were training camp that are on that count. So I don't know who's on the leadership council, but I would guarantee DAC is on the leadership council. Yeah. And I would also think he's one of the few guys that probably can just walk, say whatever he wants to Jerry. And what I'm taking from that is that Dak informally was not pleased with the way Micah was handling his business. And that it wouldn't have been upset to see Micah just leave.

It's not surprising. We know that DAC is in, he's like the fully formed DAC now, you know. He's gone through being pissed off. I'll leave if you want me to. I don't care. And I got $60 million a year. He's Teflon. And yeah, it doesn't surprise me at all.

If I camp, he would have just kind of talking to Jeremy, like, dude, I'm tired of this. You think this is helping me? He might have planted his head. What if we did end up trading him? You think that would just kill this team? Absolutely not. That's probably exactly how it happened. And as weird as it is for Shottie, they're not going to fire him after this year.

I know you guys want him to, and he could be terrible, but they're not going to fire him after this year. And it's not because he's not, I'm telling you he's not going to suck. It's because I'm telling you Jason Garrett was the head coach for over a decade. There is a precedent here. But so for Shottie, he's looking at it like, you know, this is going to suck on the front end. But this really helps me out. One, I don't have to talk about it anymore. and two, they don't have to say we're rebuilding,

but this at least looks like there's a little bit of pressure off of me to get this thing to the Super Bowl right away. What was I supposed to do? You traded Michael Parsons. He's probably pretty pleased about this as well. In the long run, because Michael was never going to listen to him. That's a lost cause. Yeah.

That's not one he's getting in the room. If he ever had truth serum, he would say there's a guy because he, him saying he's an elite friend maker and teacher. But I can talk to people and I really know what, how to, you know, after having a couple dinners and all that, he probably is like, I don't get this guy at all. No. Like I have zero idea what he, what he's about. Won't break eye contact with me.

Dan would have had a much better chance being Micah's head coach than Brian Schottenheimer. He's never run into anything like that. You can tell. Hey, what's up, bud? We talk about Dack. Hey, bro. Like I said, he brings up Dax's contract all the time. And I really believe that contract broke him.

He really references it all the time. Had four quarterbacks since signed a higher deal? I don't think he'd be saying a word about it. Okay. Let me say to the fan base that looks at this and says they're rebuilding right now. Well, again, we've certainly got. a new coaching staff and a third of all the players are new and so obviously there is freshness we'll use the word new on that basis turn over but we have the highest paid players in the NFL

at quarterback and we go and we made that commitment last year and we're proud we made it and had everything to do with this decision everything I'm trying to struggle for a quick and analogy here but it is like nobody made them do that it is kind of weird to like really go over the top it's all do it yeah man all and everyone's like no dude don't don't do that he's like well yeah i mean i did it so now we got to do it this way no one was telling you to make him the highest paid by that much half your fan base wanted you to let him walk and now he's like well you got what you wanted it's a it feels manipulative doesn't feel honest like to hear his reaction.

He was asked about, like Micah Zonfield, shenanigans last week, or, you know, on the sideline. Does it bother you at all with the way maybe he carried himself, the laying on the training table during the game, and some of those things like that? Oh, that's not. That is not. I didn't see it. I saw pictures of that. So you did.

I didn't see it, but I saw pictures. Does he think every time someone ever says I saw pictures? something that they were there physically to witness it those aren't ways that you make decisions make that you handle being a player and a team concept and the sharpness and paying attention first of all ask our Booker and you can get your butt run over down there if you don't look at what's going on out on the field okay now he's like this is irrelevant that's doesn't not the same thing but he was saying, yeah, you don't do that.

Yeah, he's not going to do that. You don't act like a little baby. And that might have been the time when he called the Packers or called Stephen and said, Stephen and Will McLean said, figure out which team, what can make us better now and in the future, or at least kind of we could sell it as good as now in the future. I'm done, done with this. Yeah.

And that's probably why when his agent did kind of crawl back, but certainly they weren't going to go back to the numbers they had in April, he said, you know what, he's playing this year on the fifth year, or he's not playing here. It's bold. And I almost would have liked to see this play out to where I wanted to see them come back with a doctor. Side show looking doctor.

Well, yeah, no, Eagles fan. It's just Dom. Dom, with a lab coat on. Actually, it's the Eagles team doctor he went to. The second opinion, I almost would have liked to see that because it was getting so wild. But clearly they realize, you know, that would have, that probably would have been too distracting. That probably would have been worse than making this trade and going forward this year. People, they're human beings.

That's not Mike is full. Jerry's fault once the well is poisoned. People are going to act differently. That's just, that's how it is. I wonder, my last thing on this is just, is this a mica thing or is this a generational thing? Like, Micah is definitely like the Zoomer athlete times 10. He's super online, all of that.

And Jerry's really, really old. So it's not like every GM that deals with these players is, is in their 80s, but I just wonder, you know, we've seen that, you know, loyalty to the team, as we've talked about, sort of fades over time, whether it was a real thing or just putting on airs before. I wonder if it'll just become more common for guys to be like, I don't want to, I don't care that you drafted me, I want to go somewhere else. Just because I think it'd be fun. Like, I never in a million years could have seen Des doing this, because I think Des knew, it's going to be good for me in Dallas.

That's where I belong. That's where I have a support system. They'll take care of me. But I feel like Mike is a different generation of player. And I wonder how many, if there are more after him or what? But also, I mean, he was trying to sell everybody on the, yeah, I've been a cowboy fan forever. Remember, even during the draft, he was dreaming that the cowboys would pick him. And then they did.

And then it's, you know, wearing the star is so important to him. And, you know, and then publicly, you know what, I don't have to have the most money. I do not have to make the most of any defensive player. But then his agent is like, yeah, we do. And then he backed up going, well, okay. Like, he's, I don't know. He backed himself into a bit of a corner.

I mean, it worked out. It's not like he lost and he's not going to. He's not a better team making more money in a city that probably has a better fan base. The only thing you can think is maybe when it's negative five degrees in the NFC championship game. Thank you for your service. And they're in Green Bay. I said it.

None of y'all did perform. Look, I mean, the only real sensible ending here is that they make the playoffs again. And he just ragdolls DAC for an hour. Oh, let me look at the schedule. Where is that? I think it's like week four. right for here september 28th yeah so they got philly dub giants two come on giants at home may need to move a stream around what maybe maybe um what would

you think what is the reaction going to be when they lose to the Giants at home week two. I don't. They're Owen. I'm just asking right now, predict. Predict the reaction for something I don't think will happen. What do you want me to do? I don't think they're going to be as bad as you guys do.

I think everybody forgets that they had a really good season in 23. How are they going to get to Russell Wilson? Might be the three second round picks at the edge that they've spent over the last three years. Legitimately, dude, for normal teams that don't have an ace, that gets it done. Like, if you're a team that doesn't have Miles Garrett, whatever. What's the – you draft three defensive events. Yeah. And he's the top 25 –

By all accounts, he's been awesome. He's been awesome in camp. The people that, you know, I trust, the draft people, Bob included, were super high on him. He was a steal. And again, now I'm thinking, you know, they kind of knew something was coming when they took him. Because they already had Sam Williams and Marshawn Neeland. They knew. They put their trust in flu.

Because even Stephen said you can disguise pressure. You can scheme it up a little bit. And that's a real thing. You can't scheme being 340 pounds. A couple more from the press conference. Don't take a little break out here at Waddeberger in Grand Prairie. Meal 2? Are you ready for Meal 2?

No. Okay. No, I'm not. Here, Jerry, I think, came up with a word. and so that was on our mind the minute that we saw that we were quite possibly we're going to have an issue about whether or not we could do a contract or not that gave us time that gave us um imaginering that couple with okay so that was the word of course uh the imaginering they did.

Is that a word? I don't think so, but I feel like they use it at Disney World, like the Imagineers is what they call the people who design their stuff. I love it, actually. Why just be imaginative? Be both.

And then this is what, you know, one of the many reasons that I think he's been watching that Netflix doc. He's got a little air under his wings there. He's like, you know what? Yeah, I'm the gambler. I'm the gunslinger, man. I make deals. I do this. I made that

Herschel deal. You think I didn't make that Herschel deal? And he even brings up the Herschel deal here last night. And I wish him so much success. I don't want him to have success when to play the Cowboys as much as I do want him to have overall success. But Michael Parsons did an outstanding job for us for four years, and a little bit of the way Herschel Walker may have had his greatest contribution to the Cowboys, what he brought to us when he left could be a tremendous thing for our fans and the success of this team. Ring of honor. The trade.

Yeah, the trade. If they're able to get like a rotation guard and a slot corner, they can put it right up there. Because I swear to God He hasn't mentioned Herschel Walker in the last five years It's been forever We haven't talked about it in forever But in the last four or five press conferences We've saved from him

He mentions it multiple times usually And the draft camera Which only came up again in the documentary I'm telling you they are being run By him and Gene binge watching this show every night And she's like, you were awesome And he's like fuck I want it

Yeah We're just stuck in nostalgia Yeah, overall, I think, you know, I wouldn't have done this, but where it led to and where it was and where they were both kind of shown off against each other and I feel like it's not a terrible, terrible move. It's not terrible given the circumstances they created for themselves. Yeah. But I would say they could have avoided this. There's millions of ways they could have avoided. And we could spend all day on this, but they could have signed.

him after 23 when he says he went to them and tried to do it well they don't even really want to talk about that because that would have required them doing something early which doesn't end up in the news cycle but for them to sign him after 23 they would have had to also done DAC and CD at the correct time yes because right then they were talking about a plan they were dealing with DAC and CD and then I mean sometimes they do guys way ahead of time they used to do Romo ahead of time all the time Romo's in the white shirt crew though he's in the Italian vacation crew with Witten. You think Witton ever had to grovel?

I don't think so. All right, well. How's Jason Witten doing, Blake? He's good. As a high school coach? Yeah, he has a really good team in Argyll. They won state last year, right? Did they?

I saw where his kid is like a top recruit, obviously. Who was in ninth grade when we went and saw him that year, Dan. But they had to play him because they only had like 30 kids. Yeah, it's not like that. It's not like that anymore. Is this kid a... Awesome? His name is Cooper, so I would assume.

Ah, and hilarious. It's funny. Yeah. And hilarious. Do we have a few car trays left still? I think we have four left. Four left. Wow.

Okay. What a day. Hey, Courtney's here. So if you are actually tuning in on the tube, are we on the tube today? We're on the tube. Red tube? Oh, shit.

Geez. I think we're blocked. I hadn't thought about that one in a long time. Great pool. Hey, thanks, man. Hey, is the HVAC guy and the construction guy get a fight or what? Are they here? I don't know.

HVAC guy's here. Okay. Oh, he left. The gorilla left. He said that. He saw Travis. He left. You know what?

I'm not ready for that. All right, you want to. Okay, so on today's program, we do have the monthly business review. Are we doing that? Whoa. Let's do it. Julie said she's going to stop by and hang out. Somebody just WNBA fan.

Blake's in the yard. Oh, I'm aware. I was choosing to ignore it, but thank you for bringing it up and bringing it to light. Let's make sure. And can I promote the Dumbzone Knockout League? How do people get involved in that, Blake?

We already have... We have well over 100 who have joined, but... Yeah, we're creeping up on 200. You can go to knockout.dumzone.com, or we have a tab on Dumbzone.com. That'll take you there. Efficiency. There you go.

All right, let's take a little break here at Waterburger in Grand Prairie. We should say the Bush and Pioneer Parkway. So don't go wherever Jake is sending everyone else. The Dumbza. All right, we're here. What a Burger in Grand Prairie, which is on the bush and Pioneer Parkway. And I believe there's literally one car tray left. And it has scratches on it, says Clayton.

You weren't supposed to say that. Why? It's an immaculate shape. Come get it. Gently loved. There we go. We're going to be here till afternoon because Jake wants to make sure he eats lunch as well here. So if you want to come by, Waterburger and Grand Prairie, please do so.

What are we promoting? What's the big item? Got a bacon, wrangler, double. Got some crispy onions, strings, little Chipoli, aoli. And also the Dr. Pepper Blackberry shake. You got to love where aoli's at, right? we're loving where sauce in general is headed but garlic aoli uh aoli mayonnaise huge year for the aoli space

i would like to try the dr pepper blackberry shake i'm just saying that in the air wondering hold on let me turn the speakers up i don't have a what a dr pepper order people around blackberry shake right here i I would like to see it there. I think it's just going to fly over to him with some angel wings and land right in front of you. With its top off.

That if there was a Dr. Pepper Blackberry shake right here, I would like that. I just want you to know. No one's moved yet. Good. He thinks he's a prince. Good. Oh, there goes Marv.

I'm just mentioning. You don't have to buy me a shake. Wes just bought a sit-in. They're going to walk over. They're going to walk over. They're going to spin. BVB's money on your milkshakes. I was just hoping, like, once, like, I thought maybe while she was here at a show

that Jasmine would ever listen to our show, but apparently... She didn't even hear that. That's what I'm saying? Like, what are we doing? So you wanted her to not only listen, but then buy you a milkshake? We're asking a lot. Bye? Yeah.

Yeah. I expect to be given things, not to have to pay for things. You don't understand what it's like to be in this world. It's not easy. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Julie Dobbs. Yep. By the way, if you guys are wondering what it's like to run a business with Dan and with Julie, the line of humor he just did, you don't know how hard it is to be a man.

While funny, not always needed on calls with several people, some of which are women. Yeah, that happened yesterday. They don't all know your bit. Look at Marv. They don't all know your bit. How did this happen? I have a Dr. Pepper Blackberry shake here, Wadaburger, Dr. And see, this is why he can keep doing it.

He just ignores it. It works. It's a shake. People bring him whatever it is that he speaks into the ether. I was doing a self-evaluation and a post-game show after our business call yesterday. I left you alone. I felt like the player just needed to sort through it in his own head. Didn't need to hear from coach or teammate.

I'm just like, that's it. He knows what just happened. Yeah, no, like, look, you want, you want the dumb zone? You want the dumb zone? You get the dumb zone, even on business calls. Yeah, we're going to talk about how. There's no off switch for Dan McDowell. I could not. Turn my camera off, quick enough. Be barefoot and pregnant. Isn't that fun? No? Why are you even on this call, ma'am? Shouldn't you be in the kitchen? It was. How did you turn on your? It was walking up to that. How did you turn on Zoom? Did you have to ask? I see you're in your car. That's even more advanced. Very impressive, woman. She was having fun with me.

I think her and I, when we lose the account. It's my fault. That was fun. You know, one more thing on Micah, and then we can move on. I have one more thing on. I've moved on in general. That's impressive. But it is just when you look back someday or even,

just even today it is you do have to marvel at the fact that you could in this one sports market you would have these two they say generational talent it's because you want to oh my gosh this is the kind of guy i want to wear the uniform their whole life when you have dirk early and you know it when you have cow ripkin early whoever it is that these names that you want to associate with your franchise that you could screw it up so royally to wear not even even right when they're kind of maybe hitting their prime, they're gone. Like, it is incredible. Like, I can see the Jerry Hemming and Hawen on the DAC's contract.

You weren't quite sure. They had a bad, good year, bad year. He needed a lot of great, he's not Mahomes. He's not ever in that top five. Okay, well, Hem and Haw about that one. We might even Kirk Cousins ourselves into some franchise tags. With a guy like Micah, right away. Like, right away.

am I able to let's get it done right now so we know we had that forever the same you know obviously with luca when they are able to do this we're not going to mess around like Cuban he knew it right away I'm signing him I mean like now the maz were like I don't know what about this supermax stop talking because I'm just looking at it if I think about it too much I mean there's lots of reasons you watch sports there's lots of reason you get into sports but a pretty big one is you're like waiting for the lottery numbers to come up for guys like Micah and Luca. So I don't really want to think about the fact that twice we hit that lottery, because you're not going to hit it twice again.

You know, the Mavericks are not going to have a player of Luca's caliber and Micah's caliber at the same time again while I'm alive. So, yeah, that's the part of it I don't like thinking about, is that a truly once-in-a-lifetime thing of having two guys like that in the same city who are in the same age. and want to play here, you don't get that. You just don't get it, and it's gone. I don't know what you want to say. We had our next decade mapped out.

I know. We had our, it was... Dude, I'm down so bad I try to watching baseball this year. I get it. I'm grasping. I don't know what I'm going to do. But the Cowboys, I think, will be entertaining, and, you know, they're just not going to be as exciting.

And it's all because everything has to come with a side of BS. How's the shake, brother? This Dr. Pepper Blackberry shake is amazing. Wow. We love to see it. I've never had this before. This is only available for a limited time, as I understand. Yeah.

So. Enjoy him just arrogantly. Sipping on, is there anything more condescending than sipping a milkshake? What do you mean? It's just, it's not you. I'm serious. That is just very, hmm. Hmm.

I don't know. He ate a grilled cheese last time we were here. What does that mean? Why are you criticizing me for eating food? Yeah, where's your little grilled cheese? Put it in your little backpack? You know, there's a empty spot here where there could be a grilled cheese with a tomato on it, but there's not. So what do you want to do?

I want to do a monthly business review. It's the very end of the month. Next week we're going to be kind of full into football once the week starts. The week starts Tuesday. Right? We have some kind of holiday. Monday. So yeah. It's that time of the month.

It's time for the dumb zone's monthly business review. And now the king of all note takers, here's Blake Jones. Yay! Yay, Blake. Thank you, voice man. Subscription numbers, we're down. What? We're down in the month of August.

I love it. But we did balloon up and just grind. We ballooned up in July. and since June we're still up 15. Fifteen. So the number just corrected a little bit, but I think we're all in all, we're doing great. I'm not, I'm not that focused on this.

This paid subbies? Yes. Okay. I feel like we've. I would like to, can we track like the other, the YouTube and the, no, really, I want, because we always want more people,

we tell people to go sign it. In fact, I'm not laughing at you based on the idea of metrics. I was just laughing on the question of can we track YouTube and stuff. Yeah, like I want to know. Can you track the Apple? We can tell right now. So tell us, are we up on the Apple?

We're up on the Apple. Oh, all right. That's what I want to hear. I want to hear Up, Up, up, don't tell me down. Tell me up. I'm just being honest. This is the monthly business review. I didn't ask for Honest.

I asked for Up. Business is honest, Dan. So this is just the paid subbies, so you don't find any value in the imps. What are we doing? No, emps matter, for sure. Imps truly matter. They do. Let's go with bad bits.

I'm really glad Julie is here for this one. We mentioned this on the show recently, but Julie, recently, a lady had missed her high school prom. I think because her parents were a little too strict at the time, missed her prom, and instead,

he recently, for her 65th birthday, threw herself a prom. Okay. Don't say it. Hadn't thought about it when she was 30 then? Or 40 or 50? No, you're busy kids and stuff. Rinding away at her until she was 60 years old.

Yeah. She had to go have a prom. I thought more about the great point I made the other day. Okay. Is that what you were thinking about late at night, tucked into your bed? We're not, we are just not ready for the gender reveal Instagram. generation of women to turn 60 or 50 or it's going to be insane we're getting there we're getting there like if you had a gender reveal party and you're a female i don't think that we can just have

a chill time for your 40th birthday you're going to have to go to like bezos space and have a party there you didn't do gender reveal did you um not party no not a party we had big event film it with my son who was our first born, we, like, slapped the hockey puck and it exploded. Of course. So you did. Blue or picked. It was just for, like, grandparents. Doing it for your...

Still. No, no, no. Cut off. I say the problem is doing it for the show and the... Look at me and look how cool. Do whatever you want in your own house. Like, that's just a bit with your kid. Yeah.

Filming it and putting it out there. You filmed it. It's on my phone. I don't think it's really ever even gone anywhere. Well, but why couldn't you just, like, call him and tell him. Call who and tell him. The baby that wasn't born yet?

Your grandpa. Or whoever you hit a hockey puck for. Well, Grandma was there. And I'm really glad we have that moment, Dan, because she's no longer with us. Well, what if you just verbally told her? And I'm glad that she was there

and that we celebrated as much as we possibly could while she was with them. While she was there, you just talk. Why do you got to do a bit with the hockey puck? Well, then what do you do with the rest of your time? You got to do, have some activity with the in-laws in town, right? That's why you loved her so much that you're all broken up. She's dead.

And now it's like, oh, I didn't want to spend too much time with her. Why are you entertaining him? Why are you patronizing him? Because this is what we do. Let it go. Why didn't Dan do the show from home today? I don't know. Get on to do stuff. Because I had to have a Dr. Pepper.

There you go. Blackberry shake at Waterburger. This thing is unbelievable. It's a horrible bit, Blake. I'm defending her a little bit. If you're turning 60, you're dealing with so much crap in your life as a six-year-old woman. You are. You've like survived. You've survived menopause. You've raised kids. You can do whatever the hell you want. If you want to have a prom birthday party, you go for it. Sista. I never have, I never have Sista at anybody, but it felt cool. You go for it,

sister. You have that prom birthday party. Some horny year old, 72-year-old guys putting GHB in the LaCroix. He said you wanted a prom, huh? All right, let's do this. Binge, Dan and Jake Wander. We're still at Waterberger. 161 in Pioneer Parkway. Things Dan or Jake want. There's a lot.

Let me give you this one. Dan wants to make a Twitter account that outs people who park poorly. I was told, I don't know if I forwarded this year or not, but there's certainly an ample amount of Reddit pages for you to participate in. You have a community of people who come together. and shame others for their enjoyment.

Yeah, I don't know if it's a YouTube page or a Twitter account, but I want to have a place. Did I tell you my other idea? Have I told you guys my idea about the bathroom rating? No, let's go. I like it already. I have a great idea. I just have to start doing it.

I want to go to different places like Whataburger, like Fox 4, wherever you go to the public restroom. And I want to rate it based on how much soap comes out of the thing. if it's touchless or not because you ever go to one of those touchless soap things it goes it's got a little tiny

and so you got to put your other hand under it and then you do it again like you have to do four things same thing with the touchless towel dispenser like I think the one at Fox will be like here's three inches

and you pull on and then you got yeah it's all it's wet so it's all crumpled up but I think there's a way in those machines you set it for you can set it for you get a foot or a foot and a half. And, like, I love those. So you're going to get a positive rating.

Right. If your thing does that. It's probably, like, proportionate to how well your business is doing. If your bathroom only has... You're like, let's give them another inch. If your bathroom only has the air dryer, that's way... That really lowers your rating. It's woke.

Isn't that terrible? Yeah, you want to have the paper towel choice. Yeah. Because you end up walking out like this and then you're rubbing it on your shirt. I very much mark that down I enjoy the idea it is a great idea I'd watch the series but it would be very foreign to me because I am learning

the more time I spend around you I am basically feral like there's not a bathroom I walk into I'm like what's bad or good I'm just like whatever that's not just because you're around me I wipe my hands you're a disgusting there's just air I wipe my hands on the cloth

that I wear everything you got rags all over you I know I'm not rags But you're trying to act like I'm the weirdo. No, you're the weirdo that can think every bathroom is like a palace. I mean, it's not. It doesn't. It doesn't. There is a rating.

Some are worse. Yeah. I can't identify. Don't wipe your hands on your clothes, please, for the love. Why? Just because they're clothes. I might have somebody in my family that does this and it's now being passed down to the next generation. I understand.

You're just walking around with. So you have, like, you'll be walking around with jeans with like little hints of mustard on them. Maybe a little ketchup, some crumbs, and you just go on with your life, and then you don't wash the jeans, because we know that jeans are something that don't get washed often.

Wipe your hands off, like, on the back of your pants. Then nobody will know. It's so gross. Yeah, I do that. Much like the Blackberry Shake, I think Dan wanted to speak this into existence. On August 21st, Dan wants to see the Matrix at Cosm. Oh, yeah.

Didn't that happen? Didn't we see some... Somebody did, and I said, I want to do that, too. Really? Okay. Yeah. Dan wants a half shirt. Like a crop top?

Came up again the other day. Well, that's a joke. Shimmel? I can't throw my, show my big fat belly. Come on. Come on. Come on, bud. You're looking lean.

Aw, Dan. I was looking at where to get you one. Dan, Dan, Dan. Yeah, yeah. And then Jake wants a book written about Zeke's return season to the Cowboys. That's not a joke. I feel like somebody could write, because it was obviously a lot going on there. He was not coming to one.

work he was late every day he's that they're suspended him for the first half or maybe he stayed home from chicago Atlanta Atlanta and then uh wow there was a lot dude that's funny there was a lot i was thinking about zeke yesterday and like if he was still a cowboy or not i really was well this time last year he was what's happening with that guy he was running through the gauntlet drill out of camp and it smacked him in the nuts and he fell down like oh very funny into a career So I talked to the same lady. She's probably about 65. She works at the gas station where I get my coffee of the day at.

And I told her I was going to Cowboys training camp, and she says, oh, how's Zeke doing? Yeah. How did you answer that question? I said he was great. I didn't have time to explain. Well, look, you know, his yards per carry was way down. Kind of really dependent on the offensive line. He was not really versatile.

He's still going to go in the ring of honor, but it's cool. That's cool. Time Capsule. All right, time capsule. A couple Cowboys things here. First, really good one from Dan. Says Trayvon will get hurt at some point in the season and he'll say the Cowboys rushed him back early.

Yeah. I bet he's going to be a real fun customer. For the next little handful here. That'll be nice. Jake says the Cowboys will start 9 and 3. Kind of like last year when you said, or both of you made a bet that they'd start 5 and 0. That's 100% not true.

And here is Dan's grilled cheese with a tomato on it. Oh, hey, thanks. Who's doing that? Who's enabling this monster? Marv. Of course it's Marv. Come on, man. Oh, you got cinnamon bug bites?

Would you get a kids meal? Is this a kid's meal? You don't deserve that. You want the bug bites? Heck yeah. I can take those home. Thanks, Marve. Everything goes to a snack for the kids.

Anything I can put in my bag that I can have a snack. Sure. Yeah. Oh, I took it out. I have a box of Rice Krispies in here right now. Wait, what were we just talking about? Oh, I didn't say 5-0. Wasn't that just?

I did, I bet. I thought it was just Dan. I know Dan did. It was the Browns here, yeah. Yeah, okay. I actually put a bet on it. Yeah, I was going to really cash in. They almost got there.

No, they lost the second game. Well, they were four and one. I mean, obviously, we're amongst friends here, so I don't mind bringing it up. But one thing we haven't talked about is, like, when I was in the half, was when they were giving up 400 yards. on the ground a game, and I would kind of only be allowed to watch those games, like maybe 30 minutes of them. You'd pop back in, and it's just like, are

the Saints up 28 to 3? And the next week it's just Baltimore, 31 to 7 or something. It was the most brutal stretch of football, I think, they've ever played. You had Eddie, though. I did have Eddie. Well, Dak must have been hurt

then. That's when he was playing. Well, then Micah had to be out. He was playing. 44 points to the Saints if Micah Parsons is rushing the passer, right? Maybe losing Dante Fowler? I don't know. It was a bad stretch. Dan wanted this written down because on August 4th, Jake says he doesn't regret the pool.

And Dan says one day this will change. It's a very... You owning a pool. It's an odd thing to... You're acknowledging that there's going to be a negative side of it. But you're not saying that will make it a neutral thing. Like, I'm getting so much positive now. I know it's going to suck later, but this is great.

You're right, though. I did get a lot of positive. It's got to be frustrating to look at every day right now. If I didn't have those years of, we would go in the pool every single day. I'd get off work, be home by 4 o'clock. And I'm in the pool at 405. From an established-the-run guy standpoint, for years. I know that we're paying for the maintenance.

I know we paid for the pool. But in my head, every time we're in there, I'm like, I'm saving money somehow. I don't have to take them somewhere. That's a zillion degrees. I'm Jerry. That pool is DAC making $60 million. I'm just looking at it because it was great when he was making $700,000 a year.

Now it just pisses you off and everybody. And I was gaining extra on that. Your kids are like, we didn't have anything. You're like, you had a pool. Look at it. I didn't know your pool's making you sad, friend. It's just a beating to deal with right now. A lot of guys say that.

Like when their kids are older. And no one wants to go in with me. Oh. Do we just get to the bottom of this? Yes. So I can't go swimming. That needs to be the next remote. How long your prince of her?

Yeah, we've got to come over and swim with Dan. Let's go swimming with Dan. Come have a swim with Dan. Yeah. There we go. Do some races, play some Marco Polo. There's all kinds of fun pool activities we can do, Dan. All right, I'm looking at the Cowboys schedule from last year.

Yeah, I bet you are because you just accidentally said out loud. The problem is no one will come swim with me. Right back to the Cowboys schedule. I think they could probably come out. Hold on, I'm looking at the Cowboys schedule from last year. With his grilled cheese. And yeah, they were three and five, so I almost got to five and no. Of course, then they lost one, two, three, four, five in a row after being three and five.

So, Dak gets hurt. They were three and five under Dak. So the next week, they play Philly. And this just looks really comical. So they lose 34 to 6, and the ESPN thing will list high passer, high rusher, high receiver, you know? So isn't that funny to look at when you look at the leading rusher game one was Zeke with 40 yards. Hard fought 40, buddy. It would take four games for the Cowboys to be able to best that mark when Rico Dowdell went off for 46.

Why are we doing this? Well, no, no. What's funny is the week after DAC, so against Philly, leading the team in passing was Cooper Rush with 45 yards. How do you have 45 yards in the air? Well, the sun. That was the sun game. 45 yards?

Like, what about the garbage time? We streamed that game. What about when they're not trying in the fourth quarter? That's when you get. He couldn't even complete a pass then. Did we run for 300 yards? Let's see. Leading rusher was Rico Dowdle with 53.

Oh, but the leading receiver... The leading receiver was Jake Ferguson. He hauled in 24 yards of passing. There's a new season. What does this have to do with anything? That's true. It's a new season. You're right.

That's a good reminder, though, that we just shouldn't care. What? All right, let's move on. Jump spins. Kempspin You're up to 556 6 new ones in the month of August

Reminder there's Kimspin.com if you want to take a random spin on the Kimspin A random spin Meat spin A couple Uniques here Christian Slater

This was a good one Because I feel like Dan was proud of me It was an early 90s pool But Christian Slater got arrested for biting somebody And that was a note Followed him around for a long time a fairly deranged thing to do, you know? Like a photographer or something?

Like if you got in a fight? Paparazzi? I think it was, yes. I feel like you can't bite past age five. Like if you're little and you're just figuring out life, that's okay. Beyond that and you bite someone. Biting, spitting. Right.

Anything mouth involved. That's way worse than punching. Yeah, when you're mad at somebody, come on, man. Lakeith Stanfield. Well, I think I messed it up, right? I can't remember anymore. Yeah. I think it's actually Daniel

It's the guy from Get Out. Which they're... Well, okay. They're both in it. The main character from Get Out. Yes. I believe Daniel Kaluya is the one that... Am I saying that right?

Who... We don't know. Got like a life coach, which is a girlfriend, which is kind of like a shaman. Think like the guy on Silicon Valley who had his little... I don't know what you call those people,

but Shurpa type. But he doesn't really act all that much anymore. Apparently, if you deal with him, deal with her and that's the level i want to get to i just have some religious figure woman that i'm following around she's living off of my wealth to spread her curious religious message and trademarking things around a i start wearing robes does she make jewelry yeah oh my god yeah you realize that this woman bill bellichick's girlfriend is setting you guys back like a hundred years. All of us? We don't claim

every woman. I don't claim her. You're not proud of her a little bit? I mean, she's banking. That's what I thought. That's exactly what I thought. When they get exposed, it's like mask off for Micah. I mean, there's that. All the pressure's off. Of course that. They love it. Follow him around.

She's their hero. Finally, Bob Barker. I mean, I know he used to put up wilt-like sex numbers. I think he used to say that during like Price's right tapings, he would be dozens. in a day or something. I've written here a poon hound. With the models?

Yeah. We had a lot of rosands this month. Wow, yeah. Let me just roll through them. Alec Baldwin, Johnny Damon, David Justice, Pat and Oswald. Ooh. Buck, Showalter, Don Vito, and Lou Penel. That is a big.

We don't even do lady rosands anymore. Well, they've all been exposed. I think we did the female. Because they all got the fat shot. Jain Paywall, Gin Pawall. yaw wall oh the umpire yeah

I think we have a website for rosane to Roseans too we got a lot of ancillary websites yeah don't forget to check out for no reason

check out the bumzone dot com yeah uh things that are back the presidential fitness test oh

so I went to my trainer yesterday yeah did you do pull-ups I did way better than Clay Trout like that's not saying much so no but my trainer was laughing at Pete

Hegziths um oh no Pete because he said oh yeah I saw that and he was doing like tiny little so Clay Travis his bar was right at like forehead level and then he'd just jump up for like one

really weird knees up but I guess Pete my guy was criticizing, first of all, he was saying RFK was kicking ass. It's tough to deny. He's 71. He's no snack. That's an entree.

He's doing the fist forward. That's a tougher pull-up than this. Yeah, okay. Bicep to back. Yeah, if you're doing kind of bicep pull-ups, that's easier. That's the kind that Hegseth was doing. No. And he was doing like a.

No, because Clay wasn't even doing that. Was he? Clay has his hands going the right way. Right. Heg-Sept flipped his grip. Yeah, Hagseth was right next to it, and he was doing this. Like, real quick. But he was also trying to do 50 in five minutes.

Right. Bro. Yeah, he just basically just jumped up. These are tough guys. Midland Lee is back. Oh, yeah. Dude, if I played yet, they played tonight? Probably tonight.

I know a bunch of teams played last night. That's going to be very lit. Do you think there's anyone? The locals are very fired up to get to have their Confederate hero back. Do you think there's anyone at Richland who is proposing? We become the rebels again? There's no question. But I like to think we're maybe a little.

I don't know. And I don't care. As I'm realizing, don't care. And apparently Yeezies are coming back as well. Boy, Dan came in real hot with that one day, and I was like, okay? I like to tell you. what's bad. Everyone's looking to you to find out what's cool.

That's true. I did see some lady last night who appeared to be media member of note, college football person, and I don't think she was like, you know, some lefty, you know, whatever, but she was an A&M fan, and she's like, am I the only one who feels kind of weird about playing power now? Like the guy has a song where the chorus is just like avowed Nazi, like, slogans. it's a tricky spot because it's a great stadium song

you have to look I know but there are some love it's just a great song yeah great song is a great song no matter what else you've done Gary Glitter Cook in the NHL for four decades after he was arrested and God knows where

shouldn't you? I don't I feel like somewhere there's a like a good song is a good song but they wouldn't like John Lennon you've said before he's smacking around his wife make good songs. That's your opinion. It is tough. I was watching a kids show.

Look at him. The other day. And they, like, did a whole little, it was sing. It was sing, but like a Halloween version, it was all set to Thriller. And it was for kids, and it made me think along these same lines. I'm like, can we do that? Like, can kids sing Michael Jackson? It feels a little weird.

Like, to do a kid's bop of Michael Jackson feels. Yeah. Or you'd rather have him sing Michael Jackson than actually be with him. Sure. Yes. Yeah. Sure. Midland Lee played, I think.

But also, once he's dead, does that, is that different, too? Can you be like, okay, let's cool. We're cool with this? I think it helps a little bit. I think it helps. Mm-hmm. The question would have been, what if Hitler did a really hit song? Like a really good one.

Like, what if he wrote? Just like, written by one of those Swedish producers who just nails every pop song. But what if he wrote Happy Birthday? And it's great for. bands, it's great for stadiums, it's great for karaoke. It just plays everywhere. There's a birthday version of it. You're like, art and artist, art and artist. You've got to separate it. That'd be too much. That'd be too much. He wrote it in the bunker. Oh gosh.

Let's do this. Jake has a buddy. I think Midland plays Alan tonight. Here. Oh, wow. Here? At Waterburger? You want another one? I shouldn't. Yeah, you got to eat your grilled cheese first. I got to eat my girl cheese first. Okay, this is a big month for Jake has a buddy.

Let me just roll through these. What a great shake. Good job, Jake. Lots of buddies. I don't know, Joey. I'm proud of you. Thanks. Maybe they can go swim with Dan.

If nothing else, we get out of here today, with Dan, had a couple of pool buddies. These are Jake's words, not mine. Jake has a buddy who would brag about how long it took him to crank his hog. Oh, dear. It's a weird brag. You probably aren't known a guy like that. I don't know why you're talking about it.

It's like, who you're trying to impress? Who's like, oh, man, that's awesome of you. Do you guys talk about this stuff? No, but every guy group, we don't really have one because I feel like you can avoid him. Filter him out. There's a guy in every guy group that's way too into his own. like conquests or his feeling of his conquests. Feels the need to share his experiences.

Yeah. Do women? And maybe if I could conquest anything, I'd be that guy. I don't know. I know. You know? There's guys. There's always a guy that'll fire his shirt off to play shirts and skins.

And you're like, I might do that if I was hot. There's guys we've worked with at the ticket. Me in particular on the weekend, because in the weekend, you got no clue what you're running into. It could be a guy you've been. never met before and we had weekend guys guys you'd all know uh who just would not stop talking about having sex and they weren't guys that you'd be like boy that's uh but he's killing it with the ladies like maybe he just experienced it for the first time or something just really into talking about it

yeah jake has a buddy who's mad his uncle didn't call him on his birthday jake has a buddy whose kid plays football and there's a fight at every game we back up to the uncle we were all talking one time about like I got some pretty I got some whiskey tango like my family's yeah yeah uh there's just a lot of drama and uh we were talking about it one time and a buddy of mine who had like an idyllic upbringing was like I know like a couple years ago we were like 18 he's like my uncle didn't even call me on my birthday but he's kind of the black sheep of the family you know and I'm like dude we have no one knows where my uncles are like they're they've been I don't don't know. People who don't know real family mess are funny. Yeah, it's funny, like,

just observing over time, when you're a kid, you get all the birthday stuff, right? And then it's kind of like, at what age do you stop getting presents? Do you stop getting calls? Do you stop getting texts from your family members? Like, there's certain members of family. Maybe they give you $50 for your birthday every year. And then it's like, you turn 18 and it just stops. You're like, where's my $50? Where's my $50? I don't know what that age is. But I hope to, if I were to be able to make some goals and list my wishes and dreams here on your show, as you guys do, it would be to be a family member that gives my nieces, nephews, and grandkids $50 for every birthday until they're 50.

Dude, my grandma, my dad's mom was exactly like that. And she was like my best friend. And then she got the cancer and she started giving us more. Yep. Like on whatever date. And I'm like, you know, I feel really bad about this. I would tell her. I'm like, I don't, give me a hundred bucks now, like, just randomly.

And I'm like, I feel really guilty about this. And she was basically like, you're a pussy. I'm dying. Take the money. You're a 19-year-old kid. Like, I know you party. I know you're out there having fun. You need this money.

What do you think I'm going to do with it? Yeah. Like, I'm dying. And I kept the letter, she wrote me, and it was awesome. The grandma's, that's normal. But Julie's saying, I'm going to give money to my nieces. and nephews. I don't have very many of them.

Still. It just seems a little weird. I haven't started this yet. I have to get to the tax bracket where I can actually start this and then I'm going to keep going until they're 50. I feel like you can only do that

if you don't have kids. But are you going to adjust your $50 gift with inflation or no? It's going to remain $50. Well, some of them are in Canada, so I'm saving money there. How old are your kids? My kids are 10 and 7.

Okay. What is the going rate for tooth fairy these days? $2. $2. I'm holding strong. I'm not going to go five. Like a lot of parents, I know. Some even go 10. I think we went five on the first one. Yeah, we did five for the first one and then brought it back down to two. I also put a little, like, piece of candy. It's a whole thing. It's very stressful.

Yeah, that doesn't seem healthy for promoting tooth awareness. Okay. The tooth's gone, man. RFK. Let's just do two more of these. As he sucks down a black friend. D.C.'s pointing out. Jake has a buddy whose dad passed suddenly in the past year, and he had to drive his dad's truck that says enact term limits now.

D.C. saw the photo when he was telling us the story the other day. And then Jake has a buddy who has a kid in 8 U.S. soccer, and their team name is Dude Perfect FC. It's so much worse than that. I told you guys more off the air, but I don't know. It's the luck of the draw with youth sports coaches. I'm sure my team can't stand me too. And then just a few notes from the show

and we'll end with a dear Julie submission. Shortened words for the month, Tissy for rotisserie chicken. Oh my God, that was great. Guy in line at Walmart? That's great. Grab a tissy? We've got...

Why does it sound dirty? I guess I know why. Mistow for misdemeanor. Yep, saw that on like next door. Stolen butt. Is this a misto? An imps. Imps.

We're loving MIMS. I figured you would. If you look at one of our tweets, that's an imp, right? That's an imp. Count that imp. Go look at the tweets. Julie could probably help with this one. On the 14th of the month, we couldn't tell if Shottie is a walking lakehouse sign or Etsy shop.

Would you ever in a million? Lakehouse site. Is Kelly still here? He's a football league. No, Kelly left. Okay. So nobody in Canada would do this, but if he had a tattoo that said faith family hockey, like when being on his form, would you have been interested in that or kind of like, that's a bit silly?

Faith family hockey. You can't even imagine a hockey player doing something like that. That's how outside of the bounds of tough that is. Yeah, no. Lakehouse son. I think he's a walking lake house sign. More than an Etsy shop. And Etsy shop, like, it's borderline.

Like, can be cool. There's some cool, different unique things on Etsy. No cool lakehouse signs. A little more thought out, like quite intricate. Lakehouse signs a lakehouse sign. Live, laugh. Take your flops off. Fishing in, forget.

We don't skinny dip. We chunky dip. Yeah. Dan got his wife a cameo from Carl Marino because he played a young Joe Kenda. I don't even know, man. She likes the show. search term, popularity's got to be exploding over the last two days. And then, so Julie, Jake's wife threw a really nice party for Jake's 40th.

She really set the bar high, and we're trying to tell Jake he's got to take her somewhere really nice for her 40th birthday coming up. I would if I was Jake. I mean, it's only fair. I would start planning it today. Maybe a trip out of the country with a lot of her friends. Yeah, I would pay for all of her friends to travel overseas. If I was Jake, though, I'm not. He can choose to do what he would.

But I love my wife, and that's just how I would treat her. Don't they have, like, islands where, like, older, like, cougar-type ladies can go in groups and just get crats? Don't they have, like, resorts like that where it's just hot dudes? Kind of like what you saw on White Lotus. I was thinking, you're only thinking of White Lotus. Yeah. I've never heard of this in the real world. Oh, I've absolutely heard of it.

So there's just hot dudes that are, like, you know. Like, there to play? Yeah. That's the implication. And, like, you know, not the 40s old, but older women go there. And then let's end with this dear Julie's submission. This from Anonymous. Okay.

Not really sure why. The wife has struggled to lose weight after the birth of our daughter back in November, and it's really taking a hit on her self-confidence and overall mood. She comments about it often and makes me sad to see her like this. That said We go out to dinner and she orders like she plays nose tackle for the cowboys Can I say anything or do anything for her to find her own path to weight loss Oh my gosh

There's so much we don't know This is a tough one right There's just a lot of context You know Yeah Well it's probably like I really wish I could lose weight Yeah I'll take the double cheeseburger with mac and cheese Right.

Yeah, like the context being, has she always eaten this way? Right. Is there a mental health situation, perhaps? Did you lose a parent? Some people, their health goes. But he probably would have mentioned that if she had any modicum of an excuse at all, rather than comparing her to OSA or the other one. But I can see the guy's snowball because in the beginning was probably like,

oh, she's just druglins postpartum. Okay, my beginning worse. damn she eats like Malik Collins No and that's the problem too is you don't want to be judging what your partner's eating That's a really weird

I know people do it But It's probably not judging what they're eating Every meal for the sake of judging what they're eating But if they are getting overweight And you notice they're not trying to do anything To help themselves There's a line where as a spouse

You need to look out for their health If you have kids You want to make sure they're healthy for their kids So I think it's okay to say something, but it is such a fragile subject. So, okay, reversing what I, if it's a husband talking to a wife, then probably no. Just no. Yet again.

But it's a wife talking to a husband. How many times do we have to see? Why do we have to live with this double standard? I thought we're all equal. I'm just being honest, y'all. Don't attack me. Well, then don't complain about the 75 cents for every dollar we make. Then we're being honest, too.

Stop running for president. It's not working. In theory, we're on board, but it's, we need a better. Like female contingent, what you said. I think the move here, and she's right, it is obviously worse if it's a do, but the move here is you just let it play out. And, you know, King Solomon, let your garden weed itself. If you decide five years from now that you want to leave, you can be like, babe, I mean, you got all fat. You kind of stop taking care of yourself.

I mean, I've done little, and I try to stay healthy for the kids. If you don't care, how can I be blamed for leaving? That's so manipulative. I don't know about that. I'm not the one eating like Vita Vaya. You can try to take control without taking control, meaning you can start doing all the grocery shopping husband and maybe just buy a really healthy thing. You can start cooking dinner. That doesn't work.

And cook a healthy dinner. I don't know if it works, but it feels way too icky to me. Just slowly. I mean, not all of a sudden, like wake up and all of a sudden I'm, you know. Just get a sidepiece. You can have sex with her Or treat your wife like your side piece as she's getting bigger And be like, look, if I'm going to be with one person

What if she just changes sizes every five or six years And sometimes she's a bigger girl? I love her for that And then ride the waves as it were And also if you model like being a very healthy, nutritious person Then it's easier for her to do it too It's his fault somehow? This is insane He's asking how to help without busy to help

No, he's asking for advice. That's my advice without saying, like, because there's no way to look her in the eye and say, like, hey, babe. A best bad option is what you're looking for. Yeah, so if you just do all these things around her, then maybe... Well, Dana's saying that doesn't work. I don't know if he's... I do think there should be a, you know,

marriages should be on a five-year deal, rolling five-year deals that you renegotiate at the end of every deal. Performance review. And you both talk to each other about. You know, hey, maybe this ain't going cool. Well, you want to sign it again or not? If you actually have to go sign something again, I think it might make you, you know,

you're going to up your game around, you get a contract year. Yeah, for sure. You know, all of a sudden. Put up some numbers. She drops 20 pounds. She's all hot. Right. It's my contract year for my marriage.

Yeah, but then guys would be bitching him about getting fooled by that too. I knew. She only signed up for a one year. Well, no, it goes her way, too. I want her to be able to, I want out of this. I know, but what I'm saying is, stinky drunk. If you're like, I think I'm out of here,

then she pops up and has like an 11-sack season and you're like, let's do it again. That's never coming back. It's tricky. Like kids know, the risky run. Yeah, they start acting. They're on their best behavior to try to help moms. Can you have a franchise tag on her?

Can you trade? A one year. Can you trade? Relegation. Oh, dear. Blake's a swinger. Well, I'm just saying if it's a contract year and I got this other lady signed up

for three more years? He's just pragmatic. There's your August. That was fantastic, Blake, thank you. Oh, no wait. Bless my star, Mr. Jones's NBR. People listen near and far to Blake Jones's NBR.

It's beautiful. Here's Jane with the guns. Audio Blake In local music and violence saw this story on Fox 4 last night A 21-year-old rapper from Dallas was shot at a muffler shop in Irving Heather Hayes of Fox 4

Take it away Irving police are investigating after a local rapper Was shot at a muffler shop By the way the condescending has already started at a muffler shop. A local rapper was shot at a muffler shop. Police say 28, 21-year-old Cato Rivers, also known as FBG murder is the suspect.

Sorry, what? It's FBG murder. Murder? Murder. Yeah, and so now we have Heather Hayes and then the reporter in the field. Suspect in the incident, along with another 21-year-old. Police say there was a fight with the business owners,

and the suspect dragged one of the owners with a vehicle. Fox Sports, Amelia Jones, live with more. Amelia. All right, let's go to Mr. Murder. Amelia in the Fields. Rivers, who goes by FBG Murder, has 300,000 Spotify listeners, and he was recently featured as a Dallas Fort Worth rapper to watch

in the Dallas Observer. Why is that delivery so funny for that piece of news? FBG Murder. Rivers, who goes by FG Murder, has nearly 400,000 Spotify listeners, and he was recently featured as a Dallas-Fort Worth rapper to watch in the Dallas Observer. It is a crazy story. Just the fact that there are shops that only do mufflers, that's kind of a crazy.

I was thinking about that too. You don't just take it to an auto buy, a regular, like, this shop only does mufflers. I feel like when I was growing up, that was a lot more common. Like just muffler, just tire, just this or that. But now it does seem like you buy a, you buy the building, put it under one roof. It's the mom and pop. Mom and Pop. But it was a confusing story that I was very interested in once I knew that FBG murder had been shot

because FBG murder is also in custody. So him and this other guy go into this muffler shop, they get into an argument with the owners, they draw guns, the owners physically restrain them, at some point a gun goes off and the owner gets shot. So does FBG murder. So they should... What did you happen at? The tail is oldest time. This is a v-

He said it just like Jesus. So he is in jail with a gunshot wound, likely from his own gun, handcuffed to a bed. And that's... Oh, man. That's no good for the image of FBG Murdoch. I bet it's awesome for the image of FBG Murda. You're probably right, but you also very much turned into mystery. Murder.

I got more on the tree, lady. Oh. Do you know anything? Wait, what's the tree lady? So a tree fell on this lady over in Lakewood. In her SUV, she's just driving in the neighborhood, and a tree fell on her SUV, and she survived, but they say she does have probably some level of paralysis. It's going to be a long road back.

She has a six-month-old daughter. And, you know, the images are crazy, but they actually, the news went out there and talked to the owner of the property where the tree fell. and I think this is just a matter of like he says that the trees get really wet and they have these seeds that get really heavy when they get wet on the tree and it just it can just happen but he for his part is actually

he is the chairman of the Texas Trees Foundation he's a tree man like he's made his whole life out of working with trees he's tree guy past chairman of the national tree trust. What's a Tech Tree Foundation? Texas Tree Foundation. I mean, my guess is that they're

big time stoked on trees. Well, yeah. The Texas Trees Foundation serves as a catalyst in creating a new green legacy for North Texas through transformational research-based plans. So, trees.

Kind of crazy, but he's a tree man, and then his tree randomly fell down and paralyzed this woman. it is great like why did he have something to do it he's like the tree whisperer did he actually tell the tree to fall on no but it's got to be real like

mortifying for him obviously it's terrible is he sadder about the loss of the tree or that this lady's paralyzed fair question well and now everyone's got to be like questioning his tree wisdom right his tree knowledge like how do you have he's a tree pose or your trees are falling

right what hope do I have one of the worst tree catastrophes that of recent one of let's rank them one of recent memory belongs to the tree of course there was uh Johnny Applesee he he uh yeah uh okay let's move on this is a wild a wild story that I think he would like quite a bit and before you ask you catastrophe very good I was not able to to find a photo of the accused. But this is a pretty generic news story. It's basically just a press release from the Eastern District of, I guess, the U.S. It's a national case for two people in Farmers Branch who were caught.

They're a husband and wife, 30 and 28, had five stash houses across DFW, heroin, meth, coke. They had a massive drug operation in DFW. Married, 30 and 28. find something hotter. It's awesome. It sounds like it was a massive operation. They were good at it? Yeah.

At least five stash houses imported from U.S. to Mexico. I'm positive. My wife could never figure out how to run a drug ring like that. No. This lady's impressive. And she's positive. You could never figure out how to run a drug ring like that. Well, I just need the right partner.

Okay. I've got a lot of the right thing. they both got life in prison oh not so hot anymore i don't know i mean i think it's still going to be hot in prison for they get to have conjugal visits with each other there's no way right that's a good question married people in jail well no i thought we're promoting families and because we've learned that you do get to go like uh you know crack your uh old lady on like if she's out but if you're each incarcerated in different jails there's no way they're letting you meet up there's no way but if each one of them is allowed because remember that's why we had the story that one story of that that lady who got

pregnant from a paper towel yeah when she was in jail there was a guy like three cells over and they just passed it they passed it through the ventilation she got pregnant what do what do you you know this is a miracle of life okay whatever you say a teen like a bounty that really soaks it up the bounty

it does triple picker upper an 18 year old Fort Worth high school student was arrested late Wednesday for a

fake threat made against their school Northwest High School sent a text message stating that an unknown person was right outside

the building with a gun this gets you as I guess you have to arrested and charged with making terroristic threats. Slight twist, it's a female.

Good to see some representation in our school threat. Since the threats have worked its way to an online thing, that's not surprising, right? That's their arena. Yeah. You're saying that women are more likely to... They would make an online threat more than... That's probably.

fair you got your tickets for the power bowl tonight is it tonight thank you is it tonight tomorrow night okay Saturday and Monday 50 what are we at 950 6 largest in history okay this time I'm going to use my own personal numbers you want to give those out no because I have determined that the odds of a random number being generated from a computer system, the same computer system is twice is more rare than if I guessed a random number and then that computer system hit it. That's what your models have indicated.

Much better odds. I probably have a one in a hundred chance of winning Saturday. You're fired. Why? I don't know. I've been deciding stuff I want to do. Because you've got it coming. Yeah.

That's on your list? Just things I'm going to do win. Because you were just not receptive to the things I wanted to do before. And I need support. If you could win the lottery. You didn't want me to have this Blackberry Dr. Pepper Shake. Oh, I think I'd help to make it happen. And the grilled cheese.

Okay. You get a race. Thanks. All right. We'll move on. Do you still watch Saturday Night Live at all, Dan? I guess I would know if you did. No, usually just clips.

Looks like they're having a pretty wholesale turnover. Now, Shane Gillis or somebody was hosting, I'll try to, Nate Bargotsie. Did you guys do the draft? You know what? I forgot all about it. I did it. And Jake did it. And then I saw Jake just got roasted for.

And I looked at his picks. He should have got roasted. Who'd we get? I don't know. Your first pick was like Father John Misty. He'd done it twice in the last. And Nate Bargotsy was sitting there waiting for you? Yeah, I guess I think.

feel if S&L is so desperate that they have to go back to Nate or Shane this year, I find that hilarious. Like, hey, the fine, we got two guys. They will go back to Nate because he's kind of killed it twice. Shane's second. When did we get into the world of a stand-up does S&L three years in a row? Who's doing that? Like, nobody did that. Well, I remember when like, well, it doesn't have to be a stand-up, but like when Alec Baldwin first did it and they're like, oh, this guy's pretty good. Let's do him again. infinitely more famous than Nate Bargazzi. I feel like the reason they have to get Nate and Shane

is because they can't make anything work because their show sucks. Yeah. Well, yeah, they have to get funny people. They have to. They can't used to. They could get anybody. They would get an actor and they would be funny.

And that's what I'm saying is that maybe they'll go back to that well again, but I think it looks pretty sad if they do. But I don't know. I don't, I said yes to the text message. I thought you and I would have some fun with it and then I don't know. Well, then, yeah, you didn't remind me. I called you.

I'm sorry. But it was also, like, pretty late in the evening. Heidi Gardner, she's the one you, it was. Heidi Gardner is the one cast member that you might know. She's semi, I think she's got a good bit. She's on a lot of commercials. She's the blonde? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

She's gone? Yes, eight seasons, among many, many others. Yeah, she was really good. I liked her. Lauren had said... Is Tim Meadow still on? No. Wasn't that the bit?

He's not. But Keenan Thompson is. Is he really? Right? Oh, well, yeah, he has not... He was there last year and they haven't said he's not there next year. He's the longest running cast member ever. Got to be.

I like him. He's great. There's news. Nice burp. When I try to make it silent, than uh see what he does he's not getting the cuts none not after that comment i don't appreciate it oh should we play uh me and mica do we have that i was laughing really hard thinking about uh like that audio is uh funny to some people and like they can't play it

What audio? Me and Micah at the Super Bowl With Breaking the News I don't have it But I thought of Billy If we could Who knows They can't play it

Because it's you They've not played a single thing That I'm in since we've left You're in a bunch of them But my voice is not on there Are you out Are you on the list? I guess

No it's not It's hilarious It's sad for the listener So today is Friday Why? The listener is here. The listener is here. That's right. You're exactly right.

Today is Friday, August 29th, so I have a couple of viewer male birthdays. Do you think these are too short? I already assessed that in my head. And I think, no. Okay. Yeah, I like them. They're pretty short. Underwear is a little bit long.

Yeah. Yeah. Do some people these days let their underwear hang out? Because that's the thing. Shorts are getting shorter. Underwear is, like, becoming cool. Like, my son wanted to buy these. Underwears becoming cool.

No, you know, like, how there's those brands. Yes. And they have, like, a wolf face on it, or it's like, you know, some mountain lion, and it's, like, all tie-dye. There's this one brand, and the boys are all wearing it, but it hangs out longer than the shorts. And it's really, like, messing with... I'm starting to wear my underwear on the outside. I just don't know if I should let this happen or not. You know, there was a trend.

Is this still going on? When my daughter was... I was probably 10 to 13, somewhere. in there. So it's like a decade ago where she had to buy socks that cost like $10 or $15 a pair.

The Nike elites. Yeah, because they had a left sock and a right sock. More than that. She needed like she needed them because all her friends had them. And I'm like, oh, okay. That's what I do.

Yeah. I bought them whatever they needed. Rather they said they needed. And they need it because their friends have it. I'm a soft parent. And there's some friends parent that's like just setting the trend and the thing is if you're a soft woke parent like me and you give them everything they ever want still they hate you when they're older they talk

about how they didn't have anything and so good to know so maybe you should just not give them anything maybe i need to later they're going to tell you how you didn't give them anything i will not buy a luboo what is that oh my gosh y'all what is it called oh my gosh oh my gosh La-boo-boo? Yes. Y'all haven't heard about the La-Boo crate? Is this the thing that, like, athletes collect and stuff? Yeah.

It's like the modern, it's like eating. It looks like a Tomogachi. They look terrible. They have these big teeth. They're very scary looking. I'm happy to. But people are. I'm happy to Easter baskets this one.

It's fun. Yeah. No, we have, we don't have this internet. La-boobo? Yeah, it's what the kids are wanting these days. And my friend has a couple friends who have Laboos. and now she's talking about La Boo-Boos, and you have to track them down, pay, like, hundreds of dollars to find them.

There's also fake ones called La Fu-Fu-Fus. I like that. And you could think that you're buying your kid a La-Fu-Boo, and then you find out that it's fake. Yeah, it's the whole thing that I'm just not going to even remotely participate in. Make them earn the money somehow. Beanie babies or something, you know, that used to be a thing. But they were actually cute.

These little boo-boos are terrible living. Pretty subjective there. I don't think so Show me a beanie baby That's not cute Try Just try me I can show you every single

The picture's the Korean That's very true Two Viewer Male Birthdays Dear Uncle Ball Beaver Blaster I just wanted to send my son Hayes a birthday shoutout

He's two years old It's a good name He can't listen to this birthday shoutout His leaders of the dog That was sexually assaulted At a college party Pond guy fighting I want to be very clear.

The dog was super into that. His poor child. And Blake's homeless payment plan. I would like to remind Blake that I pay his salary. He needs to bail on the Cowboys broadcast and do the job I'm paying him to do from Brandon. Wow. Why are you trying to hold me down?

And dear Barron Box, for my Magic Johnson birthday, please consider the most dumb zone day in history on this day in 1857, William Armstrong was accused of murdering a man with a slingshot, a weight tied to a rope. His lawyer won the case by proving that the moon was in the wrong place to provide light for a key witness's testimony.

His lawyer was the famous debater, Abraham Lincoln. Wow. Yours in dumbness from Scott. So Abraham Lincoln was basically just like an ambulance chaser? He's just coming up with, that doesn't feel like the sort of thing he was doing seven years before. If the moon didn't shine, you must decline. So today's birthday, or here, on this day, I should say. Some today in history, Friday, August 29th on this day in 2005, Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast.

that devastated New Orleans. Ron Washington's house got underwater and 1,800 people died. What were the explosions? 2013, the Justice Department said it would not stand in the way of states that wanted to legalize tax and regulate marijuana. As long as there were effective controls to keep marijuana away from kids, the black market, and federal property. Is that going all right? Are we happy with? Are the states that are doing it happy with it?

You see a lot of people complaining, but I feel like they're probably just the loudest, right? I mean, I think behind the scenes, the people who run the coffers are probably pretty pleased. A billion dollars in Ohio in the first year of recreational marijuana. Just think of all the money that's feeding to the schools. They don't want to give the schools too much. because they don't want to give the kids anything.

They're taking all that lottery money, too. 2017. Kathy Griffin. Oh, my God. Kathy Griffin retracted her apology. She had apologized for posing with what appeared to be the severed head of President Donald Trump. Then she said the anger against her was overblown. So I thus retracted the apology that.

that I gave last week. Like she, public announcement. No, you can't take back an apology. And a one famous wedding on this date in 2003, Amy Poehler married Will Arnett. They, of course, would divorce in 2016 after Will Arnett realized that Amy Poehler had nothing.

On this day in Dumb Zone history, Blake. So last year, I think Jerry was very optimistic on the season because they had both Ezekiel Elliott and Dowell, and Cook on the roster. Dude. Dude. One, two, inside, outside. And if you added their numbers up,

it equaled 58. No, I forgot we did a numerology. Was that for, that was the Super Bowl? 58 or? No, because this year's 60, right? I'm confused. Yeah, I don't know. No.

So it should be 59. Oh, this year's Super Bowl 60? Yeah. What did he care that it was 58 then? I don't know. Let's look it up. Did Dalvin Cook last year? Yes.

Saw I'm eating a fry. Yeah, Dalvin Cook was last year. In 2022, it was a big deal that Jake went to dinner at the place where the Plano woman got arrested for screaming at the Indian lady. I did. That was a wild story. All out in the parking lot? Yeah. Where was it at?

What did that Indian lady look like? Jesus, Clayton. Yeah, probably hot. Probably hot? I remember the whole situation. Most Indian ladies are. Being pretty hot. Just everybody involved, yelling at each other.

Both the racists and... Just don't take them to a steakhouse. Because these people don't. They worship cows. And then we were mocking that this fifth grade class got to meet Mike McCarthy's wife. All right, kids, gather up. That is so beaten. It's the wife of the Dallas Cowboys head coach.

So funny about that. Yeah, you probably would have been super fired up. Is the wife of a coach? Behind every great man is a great woman. An even greater woman. But she's just sitting there eating and eating and eating. Food, someone else cooked. Are you done?

I'm done. Oh, okay. We need to work on our game. I feel like I know when he's... He's got a little thing, yeah. Okay, well, maybe you're looking at him. He's retired, though. Other birthdays today, this won't be good for Jake.

Chris Sims, 45. Oh. Mother ever. Steve's already bad enough for him. I used to think he was cute. Yeah, he could be cute, but he was also... a proven loser who cost Texas a shot at the

national championship in the Big 12 championship game against Colorado. Yeah. Roy Oswald is 48. Didn't he want like a tractor when he signed here? Evan Carter is 23. Disappointing. That's an old 23. That is.

Aw. He's got a four-war. The mighty have fallen in y'all's eyes. No, he's got time, but he's not have a... Basically, he's not good enough anymore for the Rangers to need to trade him because he's the future of the franchise. He's falling out of that at least.

Will Shipley is 23. Exciting white. Very. Former Clemson running back, current Eagles. Noah Sindegard, 33. Thor played at Wired Will's golf tournament when we were broadcasting. That's right. Feels like he should be older.

Bob Beeman, 79. He's the long jump world record. Holder. Liam Payne is 32. Who's that, Julie? Is he the... Wait. No, he wouldn't be the one who just recently passed away because he would be turning

32. Who mind thinking of? I don't know. That was awesome. That was my brain. I'll peek it to the thought process. Who's the like hot team throbby guy that just passed away? The one who was like coked up in Brazil?

Yeah. Yeah. That's who I thought that was. Anyway, Liam Payne was from one direction. Yeah. Yeah, it's him. It is, so he didn't have a birthday. He's dead.

He died last year. Liam Payne's dead? Okay, I'm breaking news here. I need to be strong with my thoughts. I already was doubting myself like I was wrong, but Dan was wrong. Liam Payne is dead. Yeah, dude, it was real, it was real sad. He, like, jumped off of building.

Dude, your weekend is effed. Not Liam Payne. What are you going to do? Yeah. This news across the dead. on a Friday afternoon. It was pretty terrible. You know what I might do?

My wife said she had book club tonight. Oh, man. Or like night out. I'm going to tell her, like, what would she do if I text her? Can you cancel the night out with the girls? You had asked me if it's okay, and I... Babe, I really just need to be held tonight. I didn't know about this whole Liam Payne situation.

There's 100% dudes who do that. I wonder if just once... Why don't we just hang tonight? Why don't you stay home with me? Just once when she does this magical... Oh, by the way, I'm going out for drinks with the girls tonight. What if I said... Actually, I was hoping that we'd hang out to just to see what she'd say.

But then what if she called that bluff? And then now all of a sudden she's home. Pain. I'm like, oh, damn it. Absolutely pain. Keeping it real goes wrong. You'd turn to a jerk. Yeah. Beth Dover is 47.

She was in orange. is the New Black and Children's Hospital. I'm a fan. They're brothers, Ben. Brian Chesky is 44, the founder of Airbnb. Hmm, thanks. Yeah. Temple Grandin is 78.

Do you know who that is? I thought if anyone knew it would be you. There was a movie called Temple Grandin that's been on my watch list for a long time, but just looking at Temple Grandin this morning. I should have looked up Liam Payne. But I looked up Temple Grandin. appears to be like a very famous autist.

Oh, cool. Who this movie was about being autistic and stuff. Cool. Did he work in paints or more of a sculptor? No, artist is what you're thinking of. Not autists. Stop me down, too. I've never heard somebody say autists.

Oh, yeah. Thanks. And plus Dan's been on his British accent yesterday. Right. It could have been an accent for artist, or it could be an artist. or it could be an autist. Dumb Zone birthday of the day. Let's see who knows who this is.

Wow. You ready? Give Jake the first guess. Okay. Before anyone else jumps in. Tom 6 is 52. How do you spell the last name? S-I-X.

Writer? I don't know. You're correct. He does write. Books? I think he also directs. Okay. I'm out.

I should know. You should absolutely know. Fast, I'm curious. The writer and director of Human Centipede. Don't act all put out. Well, it's not put out. Let me just tell you. You know we had one of the great movie reviews ever when we reviewed that trilogy.

You've deemed your review. Oh, me and my daughter. Well, I thought she did a great job. The thing is just that I completely forget that the human centipede ever existed, does exist. until the moment you bring it up, and then I will hopefully forget until the next time. It's ridiculous. So for today, yes, out here at Waterburger.

Born on the Stay Now Dead, John Locke. Man, you don't want to be a human centipede after a trip to Waterberger. Not common sense. What was John Locke's book, T.C.? I'd be in the first one. Come on, somebody's got it. He is the father of liberalism. Yes, but there's a book.

Okay. So you must love him because you're a lib. It's not even the same thing. It's not the... Michael Jackson, born on the Stay Now Dead, and John McCain. Kids everywhere. And John McCain. Yeah, well, I like my heroes alive and uncaptured, so...

Dead on the Stay, still dead. Bring them young. Hell yeah. If you're going to bring him. Richard Jewell. Bummer. Is that J-U-U-L? the uh the Atlanta guy yeah yeah okay because that paper just shut down today right

Dark days, brother. Who was a former cowboy? Why? Was he bad? I...

He was before Norve. Was he? Oh, okay. I don't know. Do I have that wrong? I'm pretty sure that's what brought... That's how we ended up with Norm. Norve. So, yeah, that is a part of episode two, right?

Like, hey, we got Norve. Yeah. And they're like, oh, yeah, this is the greatest thing ever. Like, it was too complex. He decided to hand off to Emmett and let Troy Aikman throw to Irvin. What a genius. Let him cook. Okay, Norve was that...

Ernie Zampizi was after Norv. David Shula was the one before that... Because he had with Jimmy. So, Zampizi had a pretty inauspicious run here. Did they win a title? A chip? They won one. The last one.

And then he stayed on for a few more years. Hey, guys, I've been away from the media. Whatever happened with that mic could be. Hey, you know what? Fuck off. Well, everybody, I think this has been good. What is on your plate, or what is on your... Buy ham.

I immediately, like, exploded on everyone in my family. I made it through the call with y'all. I think I did pretty well with paint fumes in my brain. The fact you were able to, with paint fumes, withstand his misogyny. Just comedy. Comedy. That's what we do on the show. So we're out.

I know. I'm driving to Austin today and then the ranch for the weekend. I'm going to go see the cows. Your mom's ranch. Yes, my mom's ranch in Lano, Texas. How many cows does she have? Well, there were two, and then they had babies. I think we're at like five now.

This is a real, you're a real Texan. That's right. You ever delivered one of those? No. Okay. I haven't. Like, did you ever milk a cow? I'm not really a hands-on.

I've milked a cow lady. Is it weird? You probably loved it. Yeah, but I mean, you're a kid. It's like grandparents are, like, everybody come. We should get you all milking cows. That'd be a great bit. My grandpa would drink it straight.

That's hardcore. Right from the tap. I've been wondering about goat milk recently. Go on. you all ever tried it why would be is it tangy okay well i have a son with like a milk allergy i found out so i'm trying to figure out how to feed him so let's try to give him more milk well it's he's it's just cow milk

allergy yes sorry how do they know that casein it's like a protein in cow's milk and it causes really bad stuff for him and i'm like well what do i feed this human was already hard enough and now i can't feed him anything with milk in it remember back when the boys were getting ready for normandy The kid can't help it. What about a doctor? They lost half their force because they were like, does that milk have encase and protein in it? What if you just gave him?

Dr. Pepper, Blackberry shakes. First his name and now with his allergies. Leave the kid alone. I was just wondering if y'all had ever milked a goat. That's all. Thank you so much to Waterburger. What are you doing this weekend? The Julie.
