Not more on that later Write this very second Run over there take a look at it You'd be like, woo. My look, my stars. Fanning yourself as the T courses through your veins. You'll be like the Southern Bell Reef. Jerome Booger.

I miss him. R.I.P. At the 45. It's a false start. I replayed it down. Oh, my. Oh, it's on sportsman lock out here. We're not at our Game Day Men's Health Studio.

That means we are broadcasting high atop my garage. in the Dragon Den of Inequality. We have sit-ins. Oh, you know what covers the Dragon Den? Qualis roofing. And the sit-ins are here at the behest. I don't know about the behest. They probably don't make you.

They probably don't really care, but they will allow you. They got a roof from Qualis and said, hey, I'm here because of the dumb zone. And Qualis is like, oh, cool. We will buy you a sit-in. We will send you. You can get to go in the den, even if it's raining, you'll be fine. Totally, yeah.

And so we have David and Mike, they are brothers. It would suck. The same mother, I think. It would suck. Although one was, oh, okay, turn up the mic for a second if you can't. One blessed with keeping his hair. Well, that's what I was going to say, is that it would suck. They're both attractive men, but if I had a brother of roughly same age and he had all hair and I had.

had none hair. Yeah, no. There's a rivalry there. It would suck. You gave them, you made the muscle like, yeah, I'm the better brother. Correct. Yeah. I am the younger brother.

Alpha. He's 10 years older. Oh, so you might be seeing your future. You may be, I wouldn't be your little Leon Lett here. I wouldn't let Don B.B. chase you down. Yeah. Okay. So you can't trash talk.

Well, that's a lot of hair to just be gone soon. Thank you for the compliment, by the way. 10 years and you guys thought it was closer, right? I definitely did. it's a ball thing it's just like with dan yeah just like with me otherwise you know you'd be gq's hottest man or something i don't know jordan's i'd look at jordan's age what's her last name hudson hudson's age yeah bellichick air jordan jordan jordan quick update uh before we can check i just i feel like i have to mention this on the health

front since we're talking about health and looking younger air fried the broccoli outside this morning we've a solution here the it just now stays outside so you break you cook your broccoli outside what if you have to micke it up do you take the microwave outside too i'm using that and uh that hasn't come up yet in fact i usually just heat it up in air fryer so it may just stay outside now yeah an outside appliance right next to i'm not even familiar with You're like Arden Spade. Like a pioneer wife. Basically.

Cooking outside. Yeah. So besides David and Mike. Try it, Dan. See how he skated right past that? Because any mention of like trying to reduce smells for those of you around him. And he's like, look. This is useless information to me.

Guess where I was till 25 after the hour? Downstairs eating my broccoli and salmon because Blake complained about it. I retract. Don't put that on me. I'm not going to eat up here. Respect. Thank you. I don't eat apples in front of it.

Like, I've changed. Why are we so afraid of each other? Well, because you're brutal. You're mean. You're so mean to me. I haven't said a word. I'm actually moving on because I would like to introduce the other sit-in guest today. He's not here because of Qualis roofing, but he's happy that Qualis has roofed this den.

He is Jordan Jorts Richardson. Yeah. He is, of course, the guy, when I introduce, or when I talk about him to other people, I say he's a drummer that was the drummer for Ringo Starr's band.

And they're like, whoa. Ringo Starr, all-time great drummer, chose this guy to be in his band and drum. Is that true? That's true. You know Ringo Starr? I know him. Could you text him right now?

I could text someone who could relay the text to him. I don't think he texts. But he's that big that he wouldn't give you his cell phone. Yeah, I don't know if he carries one, man. But you could probably get in contact with, like, what is it, Al Gore's daughter or something? Yeah, I could reach out.

I could reach out awkwardly. I almost sent Dan the 2013 Observer feature about you this weekend. Oh, boy. I bet Dan hasn't read this back in the day when I, that's how I knew Jorts. I'm like, look at cover boy. We can hang the cover over there. He's out of a pool. Next to the Letterman Rolling Stone.

You're on the observer? Yeah. It was a sweet time. It's the future. Is that the height of Jorz's power? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And now you're-cover boy. And now the depths is, you're creating new theme songs for local podcasts.

That's not a depth. That's a peak. Okay. That's a highlight. Because I guess we're going to hear it after the break. We're going to get into the making of. Yeah. We have a new theme song.

In fact, like kind of in mid-show today, I'm saying we're installing. like an iPhone update where some things are going to change. You know, you ever get an iPhone update? It's like, oh, man, this is different. And then it's kind of all the same. But it looks different and it feels the... Yeah, it's going to be dark mode after the break.

Yeah. And day one, you're going to absolutely hate it, but it'll grow on you. It'll be used to it. So that's what we're trying to do for the fall. My theme is like the U-2 album. It's just automatically downloaded. Yeah, I don't know that anybody's going to hate

the new theme on day one. I do, it used to drive us crazy how we wouldn't, we were resistant to put a fresh coat of paint on things sometimes at the station. You know, like just if you're, it's the same wife, but if she buys a new pair on, where, I don't know. Yeah. That's pretty sweet. You guys fear change, typically. Yeah, but I think people do. We have freedom.

We can freshen this thing up. I'm excited. It's hot. It is very. You're going to like it. It's great. Caitlin's still involved, too. Unless that's a surprise, but...

She'll be here. Yeah, she'll be here after the break. Nice. She has a real job, whereas apparently you don't. So here we go. No, man, I'm... Can you tell him. Came in my work clothes.

I'm in Slipknot. I'm in corn. That's my job. We have a weekend check. It'll be brought to us by Game Day Men's Health. And I'm sorry to release the new sponsor website early. game day dot dumbzone.com if you feel like ass

if you're 10 years older than your brother and you can't you're like why can't I keep up with this guy game day men's health is for you brain fog just kind of help straighten you up maybe it'll be do it through peptides maybe just go get a B12 shots what if you get the TRT the testosterone treatment

you can get 10% off that testosterone for life when you mention the dumb zone at game day men's health you can and you should and it's apropos to have a weekend check sponsored by game day because that's when it really kicks in for me is kid time listen you're going to have to hang out with these kids all weekend yeah they might as well try to be in a good mood and move around a little bit and enjoy it while you're doing it that is the biggest benefit of game day just get back to having regular energy and enjoying regular things. They got 12, maybe 13 clinics here.

No one knows. Locally. It's like a skate. They actually have a feature. Never mind. What's the website? Gameday. Dot, dumzone.com.

Starts with getting your levels check. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. All right, weekend check. I'll go first. It was interesting to be off so early on Friday. Friday, last Friday, we did a show at Waterberger, gave out all our car trays, good time was had by all. Loved it. And then we're off.

And I'm just thinking in my head, what if this was every day? Should we do like a morning show? Should we do a 9 a.m. show? I would love it, but. Would you be for that? Yes. But what? I don't know that you would, either of you?

It was tough. But, you know, you just adjust, right? You adjust your schedule. Do more stuff the night before than you did do in the morning. I don't know. It felt good to be off. And we still got, like, I felt like I could get more accomplished last Friday than I do generally. Because then we get done with this show.

Usually it's like 2.30, 2 o'clock. I don't know. It's just a weird mindset. Yeah. That it felt like we could actually do a bunch of stuff and be productive. Maybe take a nap. I don't know. Do whatever you want.

The whole day's there. You know. You know Clayton was banging a nap over there for sure. Play 18. You could. Why stop there? I prepped. This weekend, you see, I have the new chairs were delivered last week, so I got all that ready.

They're in the closet now, but we're prepped for Thursday night. Look at all the Lone Star beer in that fridge. Dude, I'm very excited for the new den. to have its stream cherry. People are texting me, like people who have been in before, like Jameson's like, hey, can I invite two of my brothers? And I'm like, I don't know, what if you ask me not three days before? Like, no, we're packed.

Did I come? I was going to ask. I'm asking on the show. We are packed, but I will just tell you. You might have a obstructive view seat, but you can come. That's fair. And you won't have a mic. That's fine.

I'm just going to walk around. Yeah, you can just walk around and hang out and be George. Great. But no, I'm looking forward to Thursday nights game. One thing, we do have sponsors, like we have Trident for our garage door. We have Qualis for the roof. Who am I going to leave out? Community Mechanical for my HVAC.

Got Window Nation for Windows. Floor and Direct for floors. Fair least for your vehicle. It's so great. Lucy, when you need to chill out. So here's the sponsor I need. I don't need a refrigerator sponsor, but we've had this fridge now for like 10 years, 12 years, however long we've lived in this house. And it's developed this problem where it has a really loud buzz if you close the right, the left door first.

Okay. So like if you close the right door and then push on the right door, it'll stop the buzz. Like I figured this out because it was buzzing really loud. I'm like, are we going to have to get rid of this fridge just because? because it's buzzing. Like, how do you get the buzz away? So, I don't know. I don't know if anybody else has these kind of little problems that we have,

but, like, it's a perfectly good fridge. Everything's cold. It's big, all that. Ice maker works, the water. No, I think you just call a refrigerator repair person, probably. They're just going to look at it and be like, what? It's just got a buzz. It's got a hum.

Like, what am I going to do about it? And then I paid some guy. whatever to come out here i feel like and maybe i'm wrong but i feel like whether it's jorts with with music or the care that we put into this show i like to imagine that the refrigerator guy shows up and he's like absolutely not this fridge cannot be running this way we're going to get you taken care of i want to be able to eat off this mf her like clean as a whistle no sense like that he cares about the the product it's hard to find those people well i mean your other option i would say is probably to get a hammer and start looking around you know what i mean that i'm

serious just where's the noise coming from start hitting yeah that's see if you get it stop that why am i asking you for advice like you're me you don't know anything about things because that's right yeah okay i'll just but anyway i have at least decided that if i push the door in a certain way it'll it'll it'll work uh clayton got a weekend check I do. Clayton, of course, was very excited about that Friday show because it was at his home away from home. It was.

What a burger. They're bright and early. Got my breakfast melt sandwich I made. You did make that. I saw a custom item show up on social media. Solid Texas toast replacement. Yeah. I need to issue a public apology.

Oh, no. I have not been giving Jason's deli the, respect it deserves there's something to this folks there's something to it they have one of the best delicatessant lineups out there and I've been sleeping on them and not giving them their due um great sandwich this weekend uh California club toasted uh croissant roll that's great it is so great that's the move that's what I go with and then uh if you're feeling a little different you get a little baked potato with uh some texas barbecue on it yeah i forgot about that this is this is what's going to get jake just jake fully in on jason's deli i already know they that you served

your own soft serve ice cream brother yeah because everyone deserves dessert shorts everyone deserves it that's right but uh yeah it's great for the kids my buddy hit me up and said hey man when's the last time you had Jason's deli. Shout out Drew, a friend of the show, friend of mine. And I started digging through the menu and I was like, I was not aware that their game was still this good. Unfamiliar with their game. Bro, you can get a muffaletta. You can get a muffa letter. And not many people are going to give you that sandwich option up here. What is that? It's a New Orleans sandwich. It's got an olive top of nod. It's, it's not, I'm not a fan, but you can get it. They're good. I think a lot of people, I always thought of Jason's deli and I'm like, that's

fucking work people lunch food. Yeah. I'm just like, ugh, God. That's Logo Polo. But if you go in there, you see there's much more than meets the eye, you know? That croissant, for example, avocado, bacon, who. Salad bar, too. Yeah, I mean.

The toasts. Muffins, the little muffins. Oh, yeah, I had some cream bread muffins. They're trying to regulate, though. Last time I went, I was like, can I get a little mini plate? They're like, bread's for salad bar. only. Oh.

So I just went and popped a couple in my mouth. I love that. Champy. Well, thanks. Yeah. Shout out Jason's deli. I'll go next. So last week was a busy week.

I had a couple of fantasy football drafts, and then it was week one for Argyll. Oh, yeah. I had our fantasy football draft. I'm sorry. But I forgot that. The punishment for the big league this year is a spirit flight to New Orleans. and then a Greyhound bus back. Okay.

So one day you've kind of traveled. Is anybody else meeting them there? Are we just bagging on Spirit there? What, Spirit, bad? Fuck, dude. You don't want that. They're not going to sponsor us. Yeah, Spirit sucks.

Okay. Actually, they're definitely the most likely airline to sponsor us as a low budget. Well, if you want luxury travel, they're going to be experiencing that to New Orleans and then a Greyhound bus back. Is everyone meeting them there? like last time? No, he's just flying out coming back. It was too lofty of a goal for all of us to meet New Orleans and welcome him.

Yeah, so. Is he allowed to stay or does he have immediately have to go to the bus? If you want to kill your weekend, go for it. But I would imagine you'd want to do it as fast as possible. No, you're in New Orleans. I want to take advantage of that. Although, if you spend too much time in New Orleans and you're looking forward to having to take the bus back, I might get out of there quickly, actually.

A smart person would. That's a rough drive that usually comes with vomiting. The guy that lost that went to New Orleans and back on the Greyhound a couple years ago was retelling the stories. And I'd forgotten how nuts it was where he had paid for a premium seat with Wi-Fi and all that kind of stuff. He gets on the bus and he looks over and there's a guy slumped over with a hoodie on in his seat. And so my friend is like, no, I paid like 50 bucks for this. So he gets the courage, taps him on the shoulder, nothing. Taps him on the shoulder, nothing.

And one of the ladies, like, in the next row was like, just let him go. Yeah. And my buddy was like, I paid for the seat. She's like, trust, just go. Yeah, this is bus law now, bud. And so at one point, I don't know where this was, but they had to pick up inmates or something. It was just, it's exactly what you think. Yeah.

And he said it was the worst day of his life. So I'm looking forward to that. But it was a busy week because I've got to, like you guys, make all the commercials. Thank you for your commercial. Played it twice on Friday night. I don't know if you received any feedback or not. But getting all the equipment straight and all that and procrastinating with the fantasy football drafts, I was up until 3.15 Friday morning getting everything done.

The alarm for the Waterburger remote was 5.30, so it was a good start to the week. So because of that... You had two hours sleep Friday night? Can I recommend something to you as a douchebag? Because I didn't sleep Thursday. night at all. I just don't tell you guys about it until afterward, because if I suck on the show, I don't want you to be like, eh, it's because whatever.

Can't blame booze. Dude, you've got to just, and I'm not kidding you, take like 20 grams of creatine if you're not going to be sleeping. Really? Yes. I've been doing, I've seen all the dorky science people say it, and I feel like it works. Like, for just brain function.

If you can't sleep, just hammer it. It's not like going to keep you up. It's not caffeine, but it's just good for your cognitive function. In a pinch. But creatine is all their age now. It's back. Proteins.

It's back. Tits. Yeah. All back. So because of that, I did something for the first time, and I don't know how long, and that's the car nap. Yeah. Where I found a parking lot in Argyle next to the stadium, and I had about 90 minutes of seat

back air conditioning on car nap. Oh, I'm so bricked up right now, dude. Mav's post game show. I'll just go out to the car every day. Like, grab a little hour in here? Yeah. This is the problem? That little pillow in the car.

Have you ever done that? When's the last time you have? Oh, yeah. Well, I'll do the, uh, give me five minutes. In the car. Yours are extended, though, huh? Yeah, I need it. I had, I had some time to kill, but I also needed some sleep.

I don't know. It was a sound machine on the Bluetooth? Whatever. Whatever. It was really nice. Now, they're, obviously, it's, It's geography dependent. I wouldn't advise falling asleep for an hour in your vehicle everywhere.

No. At a conoco. I would say in Argyll, you're probably safe. It was a... In Argyll, Walgreens, so I thought it was safe. And you're like... Kind of the mayor. Yeah, you're like the king of Argyll.

I had protection around my car. Yeah, it's shooters everywhere. So then the Argyll game, boy, high schoolers will talk some shit now. It's amazing the amount of... Just during the football game, like the gestures, the seat belts, the thumbs down, the celebrations. Yeah, I know I'm old. I get it. I get it.

But it's amazing. It's amazing to witness and how much it bothers me as a 35-year-old man. Yeah, I mean, I would say that if you don't want another team celebrating all over you, you don't give up. I get it. I get it. Tough night. Lovejoy, a little more than we expected. Friscoe Lone Star.

But yeah, they've... Close enough. got a lot of guys and so then on my drive home i'd finally made it i'd done the show doesn't that feel good oh like the 37 hour run finish for sure it's just it's you can't beat it it's why you do it yeah you just want to collapse but then you just got a dopamine from like hell yeah yes it was a great day uh got pulled over no god blake why are you so blake you were at the finish line take your time where were you how close to home I was three miles from the stadium

Oh, you just left That's not that bad I'm saying It's worse when you're three miles from home I couldn't have just slowed down here Like I'm not gaining that much now Three miles from the stadium though You look like can I get seven minutes off of this drive?

Yeah, you're king of Argyll too Now that I was going to say but he's in Argyle though So he was pulled over Closer to the stadium but now it's like look Flash that booster card Come on yeah I hinted him my credential first I'm like, oh, that's not right. Sorry.

Here's my license. Like you needed a credential with you head to toe and Argyo Peter every day. I just give him a knowing head nod. 57 into 45. I don't think that's that bad. Yes, it is. Why? Just from a percentage standpoint.

Think about it. I thought like, kind of 10 over is. Okay, so what would it be? That's, I don't. 10 over is highway driving. Let me tell you something. No. This is crazy.

And I am not a smart person, but it is a smart person, but it is. It feels diabolical to me that you guys, smart people will be like 10 over, or it's about the percentage. So 57 over 45, whatever that is to 70, it would probably be like 88? Here's the problem. Right?

What's wrong with 88? The problem is, this is just like bunning in a no-hitter. List the unwritten rules. Like, I've been pulled over by a cop for going 12 miles over, you know, whatever. So it's 82 and a 70. And he's like, look, if you just go 10 miles over, we're going to be cool. I'm like, oh, okay.

Well, now I know. At least from that guy's unwritten rules. But he pulled you over for two over his industry standards? But it was unwritten rule. It was 12 over the real. Yeah, but then at 30. So you have to have some lines somewhere, but the point is if we in America, like, is that a stop sign or not?

Like, you can roll through it. Sometimes and you can't sometimes. Like the video cameras on the red lights used to, at least it was, that's what it is. And you would know there's a camera, I'm going to have to come to a complete stop, and then I will go because that's the rule. There is no unwritten rule with that. I like objective rules. If the speed limit said 55 and they would pull you over with 56, we're all going to go 55. Like, don't just have this wide variety of unwritten rules

because now you got this guy going, well, no, it's a percentage. It's not 10 miles over anything. It's a percentage of what, oh, okay, well, where is that written? That's not in the book. On the ticket, it did say the speeding in excess of 10% over the speed limit. Huh. And that's what it is. By the way, it was 88.7.

Wow. I didn't know. I've never heard that. Well, maybe that's new, but it should be that way. I've just heard 10% over the speed limit. Oh, really? Yeah. My father-in-law is a cop, and I asked, that's one of the first things I asked him when I met him.

Of course. So he pulls me over, and I'm like, really, dude, okay, it's 11.15 at night. There was no one on the road around me. There are people drunk driving everywhere. But yeah, get me in my little blue car for going 12 miles away. I'm with him. So, yeah, to protect and serve against 57 and a 45. Nice job.

So he walks up. Do your license? You know how fast you're going? No, I don't. I was on an empty road by myself. I think I owned this place. I was kind of pissed off, and then I had to keep telling myself, don't tell him thank you.

Don't tell him thank you. Because my natural reaction, when he hands me stuff, oh, thanks. Or he's your license back. Oh, thanks. No, F this guy. How'd that work? No, I'm not good. You already have the ticket, though.

So there's no, how does it work? You don't need to thank him in the same way. He's just doing his job. You don't have to thank him. No. But I know, but that's like my natural when I'm around somebody. Oh, thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks. What are you thanking him for not killing you?

Like he just wrote you a ticket. That's the job. You move on. And I find it quite rich. The two of you, oh, if they made a 55 speed limit, and I knew, no. If it says, the only way you wouldn't go over 55 is if the second you went to 56, 56 it printed you a ticket. If there was still a chance you could get away with it. Well, yeah.

You both would. Sure. So that's the thing. Unless we do like the Tom Cruise, what was it, minority report or something. That's what you guys are asking for. Otherwise they're going to give you a little leeway because they're trying to be good to the people and they give us a little leeway and you guys

fuck that leeway. He is kind of right. That's what you do. They'd give you more leeway if you had big jugs. Yeah, no doubt. I saw a lady tweet the other day that she got a ticket in a bikini top and she knew she was cooked.

Like she's 40-something. That's when you know. It's over. It's over. At that point. But on the way home, I did calculate. All right, what's 10% over? That's what I'll do.

I can't stop at the speed limit I just get bored Did you So you didn't speed home the rest of the way Because usually I would think Lightning is struck Little Nate Newton Yeah there's no way

They're going to do it again Yeah No it was What are the odds I almost got pulled over The next day But I was It is it is weird

Like we have a lot in common You're not going to change me This is just not something I deal with Like there's never been a time where I'm like, two days in a row, I almost got pulled over. I can't tell you the last time I felt like I almost got pulled over. Because I drive normal. Yeah.

You two are the outlines. You know over on Dove Loop. It's like 30. Have I told you that I've been pulled over twice in two days by the same guy? Oh, they just... Oh, he loves that. And the guy didn't give me a ticket on day two. He did on day one.

Did he forget? No. He said, come on. Come on you again, and I'm like, I go, I know you won't believe this, but I will slow down. And he's like, I'm not going to give you another one, but come on, man. Jesus, dude. Did you just start going a different way home? Well, if I'm ever on Dove Loop between Northwest Highway and Dove, I will now drive the speed limit.

So I have learned from that little part of the road. Yeah. Although, you know, now that Google, like, Google. Maps, I think, bought and integrated ways. I'm not the type who would upload Hey, there's a cop here, but there appear to be enough people who do it

to where you know every time now. I definitely do. I thumb up it if they're still there. I like when it asks you, are they still here? Yeah, it feels like, it feels very like, hell yeah, I'm sure they are. Comrade. Yeah, right.

Down for the cause. And then I hit another kid's birthday party on Sunday. A listener? Yeah. Yeah, and I took my wife this time because she's not working. wants to get out of the house and such and she was very confused

so we don't know this kid, no I know the dad and did you bring baby? And do you even know the dad? You brought Benny? Yeah. How well do you know who was the dad? You want to shout him out? He's the part of our, we went to the Munster Golf Crew, so I mean I knew him

and I knew both of the Corey's there, but I don't know I've only talked once. Look, how's a cake? Nice haul? I mean pizza was great and Brooks had a great time on the bounce house water slide. That's all that matter. Dude, this kid's life rules.

Like, this is what he thinks it's every weekend. I was approached by a couple of the moms, and they were like, don't you think this is kind of weird? Like, no? Look how much fun my kid's having. Yeah, do you not love yours like mine? I just ate your pizza. Because what I do is I try to get my kid having a good time.

Is that something you want me to stop me? Right. Yeah. Feels good to stand up to a couple moms, too. Dude. You don't know. Hey, let me slide in a little Qualis love real quick. quick. David, grab that mic. Qualis roofing. So what was the deal? Why did you call

Qualis? So my guy, Travis Christie over at Qualis roofing, a good buddy of mine, coaches football, flag football with me. And yeah, needed a roof, had Travis come over, jump up, said, hey, yeah, you need a new roof, and then there you go. He jumped on the roof. Well, I think he flew a drone. Not that's sick Do they really drone the roofs now? Oh, for sure. Oh, wow. Okay.

Top point, buddy. Lawless roofing. Yeah. We've got drones. Yeah, but they're great, man. They help me. I wasn't even sure. I just got the free inspection because they're like, that's what we do.

You should get your roof inspected. They say twice a year. I think that's kind of insane, but that's what they say. How about just start with once at all? Yeah, I've never done that. Oh, I'll just go get a free inspection. So get an inspection. They're like, you got a lot of hail damage up there over the years.

You know, I'll bet you insurance would cover this. Why don't we take care of that for you? They did. They called the insurance company. They dealt with it. All I paid was the deductible. We got a brand new roof. What is that website over there?

QualisGC.com. That's the CTA. Call to action for those not in the biz. 817-500-900-0-0. they have drones that's right and you could be like David and bring your brother to the

den if indeed you get a roof if you just get that free inspection they give you a dumb zone t-shirt too I'll wrap us up here we'll do the the juvenile thing Clayton you don't have to play it right now so Saturday night I went to a concert

with my wife I the back story here is I don't go to that many shows anymore but I feel like the ones I'm going to go to I'll make it count and so year and a half ago machine Mike Marshall and I who will be on tomorrow show with fantasy football advice we flew to Atlanta to the symphony to see young Jeezy in Atlanta rapper play all of his first album with an orchestra and it was one of the most incredible experiences I've ever had in my life from a cultural standpoint that album is like made with strings so it was perfect

It was an anniversary of the album. It was great. It was in Atlanta. Come on. That wasn't the Young Gravy one? It's still not. So then I saw a couple of months ago, Juvenile, who was one of my favorite rappers from like middle school.

And I've continued to listen to Juvenile until my adult years. And he was going on tour with Manny Fresh, who is a DJ who has made like all of the production of my life. basically hip hop wise and they were going to tour together because they had done this tiny desk the NPR tiny desk and it was awesome and everyone was like really really fired up for this and I think juvenile was like hey man I'm actually a lot more popular than I realized let's take this thing on tour not everyone who has a successful tiny desk needs to go on a 50 date tour on the strength of that so here's what I would tell you had a great time

It was a lot of fun. Did you get a tux? I did from Adam Deere. Oh, yeah. The private eyes son from the ranch. He met me. Oh, okay. I saw you on Twitter asking for a tux.

And here's where it gets weird. So when I went to the GZ show, let's just be candid here. It was like 1% white people. There was probably 10 white people there, machine and I being two of them. And in the, so people are already like going to look at you. and when you bought the ticket it said black tie dress code strongly suggested or something it didn't say required so i wore a suit a black suit with a tie same as him we wore sneakers it didn't look out of place now we were underdressed a little bit but that's not because we weren't black tie it's because we were not black okay it's because we were around people who were doing it up and like dressed really really well Now, this one said black tie required. Black tie formal wear required.

And then it had like this long thing about like, this is a celebration of the 99 and the 2000. If this doesn't mean something to you, you shouldn't be here. Yeah. Like this is celebrating the pinnacle of this generation of hip hop, New Orleans hip hop, Southern hip hop. This is a night of like celebration. Don't bother if you're not in like on that.

It was intimidating. So I was like, I got to do it then. Like, I have to get a tux. So I did. I definitely did not need a tux. What is they said required? I know, but like, it's one of those things where I feel like because I'm the racial outlier, I feel like I have to follow the rules.

But no one else did. So is this just because it's Dallas? It was at the Winspeer. Okay? So in my mind, that's like orchestra. It's not. Where's Winspeer? It's next to, like, where the orchestra is.

It's very nice in there. It's super, it's downtown. It's all that AT&T Plaza downtown. So I thought when I bought these tickets, I was going to see Juvenile with an orchestra. I was not. Oh. It was black tie required. It was at the Winspeer, but there was no strings to be found.

Oh. And so what you get then is, first of all, It started at 8, and there's a long lead-up to Juvenile and ManiFresh, which included a guy with an electric violin. But Juvenile didn't get on at 8. Juvenile came on at 11.15, maybe 11. And this was... What a beating. Particularly a beating.

Because I'm there to see him, and I've got to see all these other people. And all night, they're like, all right, let's get a check on the crowd. Like, who in here's 2530? And some murmurs and, like, boo. How about 30, 35? How about 35, 40? How about motherfuckers who 40 and up? So it's like, you know your crowd.

Why are we sitting here? Why are we doing this? We had an hour of like a stomp group, like a step group with like a choir. And like a fucking gospel choir came on after. Now here's Cedric the entertainer with a sassy violin. No, the violin guy was just, the big boy who was

and then Juvenile came out and he did 45. First, Manny Fresh came out. It said featuring a DJ set for Manny Fresh. Here's what Manny Fresh did. He wore a tuxedo. He pressed play on a series of 20 Manny Fresh songs

and he stood there. And then when it was Juvie's turn instead of sticking around and doing the songs he's on with Juvenile, he fucking left. Manny's gone. So now it's just Juvie up here. And I don't know if this makes sense

you are not jorts but when i go see live band hip hop and it's not done the way that like the jeezy one was it just feels like you're at church yeah the drums the guitar it's just like being at like a big i felt like i was at fellowship yeah in grapevine like the guitars it's the same kind of players and they're playing the gospel chop kind of like well they'll play the arrangement of the tune but at the end it's like boom pump pump bum that you know like all the little Chord substitutions. So now it doesn't sound like the record, and it doesn't sound cooler than the record.

Either one of them. And it was three hours and 50 minutes long. At least it wasn't just the rap shows where it's just the rapper with an open mic kind of screaming over the album track. I won't go to those. Yeah. I saw Playboy Cardi before the weekend, and it was rough.

That's how most shows are, rap shows are, and that's why I stopped going. But live band, you have a chance. this one it just didn't work but i will tell you this though just from uh like again being candidly racially here like again this is probably five percent white crowd you're just not going to have a better time than a theater full of mostly black people listening to r and b and singing like it was so much fun dude it yeah here's project bitch Now, my wife is from New Orleans and realized that she was singing, like,

this is like when I listened to when I was 10 and 11, and it's just all about sucking up all the nuts. Yeah. New Orleans people are different. He do Ha remix? He did Ha multiple times. Yeah. He did.

He did. A shout out to Juvenile and the Winspeer and being the lone white. Did you want to take part in weekend check? I didn't do too much on the weekend, but I did catch, what's it called? Big Noon. Is that what Portnoy's doing now? Yeah. I made it an appointment because I hate him so much.

I wanted to see it. And the larger, like, cultural feeling around that is, like, we live in such a lame time that, like, dudes like that are thought leaders. These dudes who look like they have. like anemia or maybe might be male porn stars that gross like they have weird moles they should get removed are just like the dudes now that are cool with their suit and their sneakers and like used to be like john wayd yeah and i think a new type of rosanne is a portnoy like mark zuckerberg you know total like nerds in charge yeah i hate this shit it's just driving me crazy Your Teal might be one.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And so I checked it on that, and it was gross. And they all, all those dudes are either from Michigan or Ohio to me in my brain. So the fact that- Did they let him in? No. No, not into the game.

But they, dude, I saw, like, they had an intro. They're playing the Michigan fight song. Like, he's a wrestler. And he's coming out. And Ohio State fans are, like, booing. Right. Trying to give him high-fives. And he's doing F-Us.

And it's more than they do. did for McAfee. And McAfee, like, has real juice. Yeah. And it's weird, too, because I don't know how much we, not to hijack your weekend check like I do everyone else's. He ain't McAfee. McAfee was a player. McAfee was in those locker rooms. McAfee was getting suspended by the league. You know, for, he's a total badass, whether you think he's a douche or not. Right. This is a big difference. Yeah. Let's just get a guy who bets who's had a couple DUIs to be a host. I just can't handle that.

And then it was Labor Day weekend, so I'll call Monday Labor Day. I watched the Big Frog, Big Frog family. So I watched the game with my dad and Stan. With Stan. And I've mentioned this before, but as soon as I walked in, it doesn't take long for my dad to kind of devolve into this, like, his big conversation starter is all based on History Channel's food that made America. and he'll be like he'll be like just sitting there and he's like Jordan did you know that

Colonel Sanders actually had a rival or something like that that is dad-brained yeah he'll be like did you know Granola was actually invented at a mental institution by Mr. Kellogg and he had a patient whose last name was Post and that's why there's two serials and he owns it like he knows all this stuff but like it's getting up to like 60 to 70 percent of what my dad has to say is from foods that built america and so i i always ride for him for that and then oh just hearing him making jordan hudson jokes i know there's that's probably coming later in the show but i wish i had his jokes that was good stuff real good stuff did you uh did you experience this i feel like i had a phase like this with my stepdad uh stepdad when dirty jobs was

yeah yeah it's it's it's real similar he's like you ever see how they see how they have to clean a reservoir man i want to i can't wait to get old yeah i'm i'm sitting there it's good i'm right on the edge how is it blake um it's not bad oh let's get my dad's not totally run the ball guy he's definitely kind of like a woke cool dad to a point and then it's then it drops off very quickly you know something about being in your late 70s where like you're legally required to just like talk about the clinton's whether or not it's how you keep it's how you keep getting your social security yeah you have to like they got a quite quite the most you ever made in 1996 why does Why do you hate this?

He's a bitch. Yeah. You look up with what I was Foster? Yeah, yeah, exactly. I remember going to my grandma's one time and my dad was like, come back here. We used to like have Tuesday night dinners over there. And he yelled at me from a back bedroom where there was the VCR and I went back there. And he's watching like someone's bootlegged VHS about Whitewater scandal that someone at work gave him.

Like it's like watching the 9-11 like homemade documentaries that we all watch. And he's just like, this is interesting. Yes, it is, Dad. Yeah. That was my weekend. Sorry. Have you ever heard of TXTridant.com? That is our garage door place, Trident.

Garage doors. Actually, it's like Trident Access Services, right? They do more than just garage doors. They do gates. Accesses. I don't know what that, yeah. Oh, yeah, you can access. That's how you get in.

Oh, okay, cool. It's all coming together. Why are they called that? This Texas part's going to blow your effin' mind. TXTryDent.com. Where are they located? Right here. Wow.

Right here. Yeah. So veteran-owned company, garage doors, entry gates. That can change the whole look of your house for sure. You get a new garage door. How about put some windows in that bad boy? Don't let him get hot. Yeah.

817, 512. 817, a Texas area. code, 817, 512, 12, 12, TXTridant.com. DZ customers get 10% off. What? Seriously, go check out the website. TXTridid.com. They're doing insane things in the garage door space these days.

Go on. If you don't believe it, they look better than they used to. I don't know. You can control them and ask them. You can control them with Internet now, I'm hearing. Whoa. Yeah. Internet?

Oh, yeah. Like your phone? Only a veteran-owned company. I tried an access services can help you with that. Access, you get in. That's what that means. From the wonderful world of sports, radio sports, scoreboard. Oh, yeah, I like that.

Okay, so a couple of big things over the weekend. One is just Micah fallout, because the Micah trade just happened. and in this world doesn't it feel like we move on so quickly from everything but really there's articles there's a lot of, you know, Micah's stuff

this is a weird thing for ESPN because it's like a real cowboy story. Usually you can manufacture some stuff for the A block or whatever they say on all the shows but this is like actually the biggest trade in the NFL in like a decade if not

more and it's the Cowboys, you talk about bricked up, bro. That's, they're nuts. The Packers thing doesn't hurt either. And then we also have a farewell on ESPN, the whole Lee Corso. That was his last thing. So instead of it to be, that's weird to schedule that for the beginning of a year. Well, I think it's because they don't want him on the show at all anymore.

But if they schedule for the end of the year, it's like, are we sure you're still going to be here once the beginning of next year starts? But anyway, so which one do you want to start with? Well, now that you mentioned it, how about a little Corso? Okay. Am I up, Blake? So this is the first time. So it was his final show. They're at the shoe.

And here we go. he's wearing a tux this is my final show I'm wearing this tuxedo coach coach So McAfee gave him the like hey let's bask in it a little bit here before you try to eloquently state

whatever it is that you're about to state For my final show I'm wearing this tuxedo as a way to go out in style. With gratitude in my heart and deep thanks to everyone who's been a part of the journey. It looks great.

You were fantastic. You walked through the net talks. No, I'd see this last show. What was you wearing? A tux. All right. Yeah. So it's like you.

A little bit shaky, but nothing wrong with that. You know, hey, I'm walking gratitude. Thank you guys. But, you know, there was three hours of show left, and we had a lot of games to talk about. Here's just a sampling. for the whole show? He hasn't been on for the whole show in years.

But he was Saturday? No. Oh, all right. He's on at the beginning and he's on at the end. Okay. But there's a lot of non, you know, non-corso time in there, especially since they've added Macfee, they've added Sabin. He's a puppet.

They need a camera on him for what he's doing for those two hours in between. Would be all over that. Carnap. Yeah, he's not awake all three hours. But they did have to get him back out there for analysis of the big game. U.T. Ohio State. And I think, guys, one last thing I'll say to you, coaches, talking a lot about Texas and a lot about Arch Manning.

Remember, there's not just Arch Manning. It's got some new receivers. He's got some new offensive linemen. This environment, they've got to help him settle in where he doesn't feel like he has to do everything because this Ohio State defense has a lot of new faces, but they've recruited well and they will bring the heat when they can against Arch Manning. Okay, so they really set it up for him here, Coach. you've had a lot of time to think about what's next.

Arch Manning era begins with a lot of the expectations. Yes. If someone releases the expectations, 12 of the last 15 quarterbacks have won the Heisman. 12 to the last 15. Wow. And this is the first time in history. Wait a second.

I can't follow. I'm sorry. Are there some statistics that he's, oh, you're not an analytics guy, I think. But I'm not following him, but you have. that was it kirk next to him or what or her yeah it was kirk saying wow wow oh you're going to get full okay grandpa because they're all this like lofty expectations yes if someone realizes the expectations 12 the last 15 quarterbacks have won the heisman well from where

this is the first time and it's the history that texas is number one in the coach's bowl first I had no idea. I'd like to see if possible, patience. Patience is the key. It's possible. So you're point, Lee. The number one. Which was?

I'm going to take out of that that slow down. Let's not anoint him just yet. That's what I'm evaluating that. Patience. No, if he had just said that. But I didn't understand anything else that he had said. 12 out of the last 15 quarterbacks of one. He was building him up for Heisman, Texas is the number one in the poll.

but hold your horse slow down is it 12 of the last 15 Heismans have been quarterback it has to be yeah that's what it is and that's not that remarkable of a stat that's probably a rolling yeah at least since the you know the last 20 years but uh certainly the last 15 just a bit tough just a bit tough uh yeah and then there was the that carried over to uh last night we had as jordan said the

Jordan Hudson game TCU North Carolina which Kirk was on the call for that and you know TCU scores or excuse me UNC scores in their first drive and then not again and so

wasn't the big meme online did you see the when the score was 41 to 7? Yeah that I was curious as to why people took that like why do it then like that's much smaller than their actual age discrepancy, right?

Because their age discrepancy is 50 years, right? It's got to be. Isn't he 76 and she's 20 or something? It's over 50 years. Yeah. Yeah. So, yeah, they took that and said, oh, ironically, that's the age Bill Belichick was. Yeah.

They're the ages of Bill Belichick and Jordan Hudson at a certain point in time. But they, yeah, like you said, that's, they should have waited. So, uh, Kirk is. call on this game and I guess at one point there was a little bit of audio of him coming back from break and he said you're bad and that made it to the broadcast

and it was at the time I think it was 417 and the first time I heard it I did hear they're so bad. They're so bad it's just a quick comeback from break but if you listen to it enough times it's clear now several meme accounts or sports meme

accounts like pardon my take the podcast their account tweeted it out and Herbie did not like that. He's like, you know, but you're putting words in our mouth. I was clearly talking to our producers such and such who had said something funny off the air. And he, I actually believe him. He was. I'm commenting on something much worse.

Yeah. But he thinks I'm doing. Of course. That's what I was telling Blake off the air is, you know, I've, the producers like, hey, check out the tits on Section 202. You're bad. That's what it was. But because people decided to clip that and try to. to take a shot in Herbie's mind.

He was not having it. And then I saw him tweet out after the game. Shut up, Blake. I saw him tweet out after the game. Instead of making things up about, instead of making things up, I said, how about giving Reese, Holly, and I some love for getting through that game?

Those games are by far the toughest games you announcers have to call. I could not believe. that I was seeing this dude. Like the level of tone deaf, it's definitely the sort of thing a guy would do who thinks he's the only person on earth who owns a dog. But like, imagine this.

He wants you to thank him and tell him he did a great job because he was able to suffer through calling a Power 5 game on Labor Day as part of his $10 million a year compensation package where he probably was flown private there, both ways. um probably had sushi at some point and my god dude you had to you had to call the whole game the whole the whole game a neutral party yeah how what do you think north carolina radio sounded

like it's just one of the toughest things i have to do in this job maybe you don't get it i don't know i prepared for this by being tortured in abu grave the only other thing is bad is having to call tc u north carolina for four hundred thousand dollars you fucking pussy And you didn't even have to do the whole game. You put your headset on your dog in the fourth quarter. What are you doing? I don't care about the dog, but what are you complaining to the internet for? I can't, look, I had a rough weekend on social media, I'll admit.

But I can't get over people who do this job at such a high level and make all this money being this concerned about what the internet says about them. I don't get it. You've won. You've won. We all have to look at your dog. Who sucks? But we have to do it because you won. How is he getting away with this?

Hey, why don't you thank me? How is he getting away with this dog thing, too? The other dog died. And now all of a sudden, like, I'm going to guess this is a young dog, and now we're going to have to see this dog for like a decade plus? Oh, don't worry. If it's less, there'll be another one. Because Kirk Herb Street is awesome at his job.

I should say that. The college one. He'll be around for a while. There'll be another dog. dog. Hopefully that whole time there's an internet to be nice to him and he has to do charitable work like calling TCU North

Carolina. But does this change the so when my wife dies can I bring my new 24 year old wife like right out in the public right away? Because like what are we doing with this dog thing? Yeah and it's pretty I'm pretty sure he had the dog

in waiting too so that's like another you just have one around. They look exactly like but I think he's messed up because the last dog, Ben, rest in power, by all accordance was kind of a good dog, like he could walk around, he'd stay on the sideline, what have you. Peter's a little shithead. That's why I'm kind of... Ben was the dog, like that's it.

You just get one dog, you can't just keep rotating. Now he's the guy with a dog. It's just a dog now. What if he brings up a furry next time? Like a 22-year-old kid in a costume. Peter got in the fountain. Peter took a dump. Peter, like, it's not a good dog, so it's, like, he's going to have to scale it back because the dog sucks.

Also, it's like if you met somebody who was like, yeah, I'm into music. It's kind of part of my identity. I'm just getting into new shit or whatever, and you're like, what are you on right now? And they're like, The Beatles? You have a golden retriever, dude. Like, listen to me. There's nothing unique. What are we doing?

Celebrating. Did you get to be dog guy? Did you get him at the shelter? Oh, no, I probably paid $10,000 for it. This one's a clone. We're celebrating the most basic things in society and culture right now. Like the 1960s had Steve McQueen. Now we have Dave Portnoy and a white guy with a golden retriever.

So lame. I just don't like bitching about people being mean to you on the internet while you're... Heavily compensated. And then Micah got traded. Yeah, then Micah got traded. Can I say one thing about that is just we didn't move on from Luca immediately. Because that was truly different. This is like, the more I thought about it, a guy saying, I don't want to be here.

Trade me. Getting traded, the Cowboys really screwed themselves on how they backed themselves into this situation. But I feel like the reason people have moved on is because the guy was kind of trying to get traded for two months. Yeah. No, it's way, way different. As far as like how we move on. No, look at comparison, except for they were kind of the best player on their respective teams, and they were both 26 years old, and we thought we'd watch them for another 10 years.

Yeah, that's my comparison. Yeah, that was the first thing I heard. I was just like Luca, except Jerry had a press conference the very next day. I was like, well, at least he's willing to do that. Yeah, Jerry's not hiding. Jerry's not. Got a Twin Peaks. What?

Okay, so I guess I— Hold on, hold on. I want to get into that. Okay. First, community mechanical, our HVAC company, great dudes. You're a little hot. Let's see here.

Call Community Mechanical.

Bob Woodward or something over there I was like dude I don't care I'll correct it but so I did and then you know it blew up and I know

Dallas, Texas TV gets it, it's big. Yeah, they might have even sent it to them, and then I just posted it first. But it was way big. I mean, it's like on the NBA Cintel accounts and stuff. And here's what was weird about it. All these massive aggregators, they were reposting it, but they would tag me every time to thank me, like the hat tip. And I'm like, I do not care. It's not me.

It's not even my video. But what that does, at last check, it had over two million. views. That's imps. That is imps. Those are big imps. It flings you into a part of the internet that you are not

familiar with. Because it's all over the world now. People are arguing in different languages. And I would, it was funny because I would go away from my phone for like two hours. I think we were at Great Wolf Lodge yesterday and I would come back. And there would be like racial battles

that have nothing. to do with Luca or Nico or Twin Peaks. Like, you FNJ, I knew it. I looked you up. And then some other guys like, yeah, that's why Arabs can't assimilate. And I'm like, what is going on? It's insane. And then also, I've come to find out that at least online, black basketball fans who are not Mavericks fans,

actually don't see the problem with this trade, apparently, based on the informal poll I took. it was a lot of like this is racist like hating on Nico is racist and if somebody came up to me like that I would have killed them or stomped them out or something and you know I don't know I guess it is kind of a larger conversation about what is okay you know when it comes to expressing your yeah anger or frustration with number one people were saying this is not okay and then they were saying you're a bad guy because they were thinking it was you yeah and that didn't bother me as much as like everybody thought I was fat and I'm not

I had to delete so many tweets dude I was like replying to people with seven followers in like Oslo and being like I'm not fat that's not me this guy may be cool but it's not me and then the other thing

some of the Nico defenders or light defenders were saying hey that's not right to do that while he is at dinner with his daughter. So I don't know if these sleuths actually determined it was his daughter or just some lady. But... I have had it confirmed to me by people that I think would know that it was his daughter.

Okay. Now I got this question. It's a natural one. You had a night to go to dinner with your daughter. And you thought, where should we go? Cold beer 29 degrees on draft And you went to Twin Peaks

You went to You ever had those sliders, bro? I mean, look, as a sports bar I'm pro twin peaks existing and all that Sure But It's really weird It might be the last

Well, strip club last place I go with my daughter But maybe, you know It's a similar Yeah You're in Addison We're like, oh, there's no other Right

They have a place called Restaurant Row. You make millions of dollars a year. I don't know what, but they're way higher end. Just go to a steakhouse, go wherever. And to sit in the window. Yeah, yeah. It's wild. That's kind of look like you're asking for it to an extent.

Like you're sitting by the front door at the open window. To me, that's a part of it. Nobody was talking about. At a twin peaks in Addison. That, to me, is almost like I hope people see me. that's the first seat you see when you walk by but a lot of questions i mean wife is weird wife would be it'd be weird if we found out wife girlfriend you're like yeah me and my wife just go to twin peaks daughter way weirder though i want to be clear way way weirder don't have a good answer

probably the weirdest part of the video yeah that's right let's focus on that's not on what the guy said to him anyway yeah it it was a wild wild couple days on the internet the dude who used to intern us for us at the fan uh body bagged me on twitter and that was a tough one i had a rough weekend so what was that they were somebody like found a clip of the fan somebody in another city or something was like hey the fan uh handling the parsons stuff extremely well and it was just like them talking, Micah, maybe wasn't a good fit, maybe he actually wasn't very good. And then the guy who used to be our intern, Zach, he, so I should stop here and point out, he has, and a lot of these guys over there have this, because I like, I like their morning

show. Like, we've played stuff on. I thought they were great with Jerry last year. But a lot of people have a thing, so try to talk and eat your ear at the same time. I call it ear eating, right? I don't know why people do it, but when they get it. on the radio, start as a second round pick because of good compensation for this draft pick. Try to eat your ear.

You can't do it. So why would you try to talk? Well, yeah, actually, I think if you talk to Brian Broad us about this, he's very high on the player. And it's not just him. A lot of people in radio do it. I don't know why. They must teach ear eating. So he's like, most overrated player in Cowboys history.

And he kind of like laughed afterwards. So I guess it was a joke. But it didn't seem, I don't know. funny, whatever, so I feel like as a neutral observer here, which is what I am, that is the difference between, one of the differences between the ticket and the fan to me. There's not a whole lot of like bombastic, see if I can go viral shit at the ticket. It never has been, but the fan, that's like been their bit for a long time. So then it's weird to me to be like, no, it's not our bit when I feel like it's kind of the thing

that they do, and it works for the people it works on. then he was like hey i was your intern not cool but hey i guess if this is your opinion have another drink on me i was like god damn dude was he doing that intentionally does he know yeah of course oh okay oh i didn't know well if he didn't he didn't he didn't apologize afterward when everyone was like jesus christ dude he fucking body bag zip rolled me off into the east river is it off limits are we not allowed to i mean i didn't reply afterward or maybe i did but i i don't know i felt like he won that one then it was straight back to baseball opinion yeah yeah i was like yeah i can't listen i think you talk kind of funny

but i have a real problem that almost cost me my family you brought it up is he the guy it's it's it's honest uh you won that one you've told me we have like a former intern that kind of will treat you coldly because oh they and they like talk shit about the ticket and whatever I don't, whatever, do your thing. I don't care. But I'm also going to, we're renting, me. It is just a thing where, like, our job is just talking shit about people. Like, our job is like, oh, I don't think you do a good job at your job.

And our job is to be like, hey, you know what I think that person should do? Block out the noise. Block out the criticism of others. But for some reason, when it happens in industry, it really bothers people. Let me roll through some shoddy micaw audio. Let's have it be brought to us by Fairleast. That is the place where I was just, actually my mom is in Cleveland. So she was complaining to me that my brother is borrowing her car because he totaled his car.

And she's like, so he works five days. So he hasn't, I told him he's got to take those two days off and just go looking for cars. I go, man, if he had fair lease.org, I was just telling my mom that, you know, you go online now. You can buy cars online. They don't even have a place to go. you just go online, they deliver cars to you, they're fantastic. And it takes, you don't have to have, oh, I need four days to go out to dealership after dealership and waste my whole weekend. That's the thing.

My brother doesn't. Too bad he doesn't live here in Texas because Fairlease backed by the credit union of Texas. You do live here in Texas, hypothetically. Fairlease.org is where you're going to get your next vehicle or at least give them a shot. You'll get more for your trade-in. And if you're in a bad lease, if you're upside down, maybe with a national leasing company, we've heard from a number of people who they helped out with that. So maybe you're in the commercial game.

You're looking for vehicles for your business. They helped out community mechanical with that. Fairlease.org. You'll see, how did you hear about us on the website? And then select Joe Rogan on the drop-down menu at fairlease.org. I prefer the dumb zone thing, but, you know. I don't want to do bits here. I might have old copy.

All right, so, shoddy. Just for fun, I missed a couple of things over the past couple of weeks. But apparently somebody was asking a question that is referring to our old employer in a situation we had online. Let's just listen to this question, and if you know, I F K

Y K I thought I definitely got more comfortable with some of the ways that we communicate on game day listen what have you learned about how

you have to moderate between A your responsibilities as the offensive coach and play caller and B the defense and you know

everything on that side of the ball as well well I think you know that's the job of head coach and I think you know did you catch Let's play it again Moderate

A B That's Slick son of a B What about this? I did play it again I thought You know

I definitely got more comfortable With some of the The ways that we communicate On game day What have you learned about How you have to moderate Between A your Responsibilities as the

Offensive Coach and Play Caller And B the It's excellent And it's a good question Mike, it's also a great question. This is a good question, too. Enjoy this one. This is just a bonus coverage.

I feel like massage. Like, just the world is on stage here. Just like directing and pulling strings. Listen to this. John. Sotis of the athletic. Ryan, you talked about the conversations with players. What have your conversation been like with Matt Ibrose

where, you know, would he like to have a talented player like Mike? I'm sure he would. But, you know, just going into. having a player like Kenny then and plugged him in and just how he goes about Steve. So he asked the question and answered. Would he like to have a player like Micah Parsons? I'm sure he would.

Which, of course, even during the post-Mika press conference, did Shottie do it? He did. Do you feel the need to sort of communicate with Mazi and kind of keep him engaged and make sure he's sort of still there? Were you in my office on Wednesday? Whatever day it was. No, I brought Mazi up and spoke to Mazzi and why? No, no, I thought we were doing.

A floater. That's a really bad one. Why? Why? Man, just really, really solid that we have to have a little parent-teacher conference with a first-round pick to make sure he's still engaged in football. I noticed a crutch. You told me lots of coaches do this.

But this is Shottie's crutch for sure. Well, I think, you know, we just went through the whole process. And at the end of the day, it was unanimous. This is not something we came about. It wasn't something where it was like an overnight thing. We just, we had talked about it. And at the end of the day, I think when you look at a football team, again, when we looked at it, it was, you know, something that at the end of the day,

when you get a chance to get things back in return that you're excited about, then, you know, you make the move. And so, obviously, at the end of the day, we've got to maximize the picks that we have. You know, I think at the end of the day, you know, happy for Micah. But again, you know, you just, you never know. I mean, you never know how these things are going to play out. And at the end of the day, I'm excited about, you know, at the end of the day, we're about trying to. Do we need to hear the next 30 seconds?

But I just said that at the end of the day, you know, this business. Okay, I'll let it go. I don't want to hear them all. It makes me want to end my day. this is how though he was talking about reacting to the mica trade okay so I reached out to I'd say I don't know how many was a bunch of the leaders and just I wanted them to hear my voice you know you never know how guys are going to take you know the news like that but I thought it was important for them to know two things you know me I'm a connection guy I'm not afraid to have

hard conversations and so you know I talk to I would say 12 to 14 guys and And we had some real candid conversations that I thought was very good. And again, at the end of the day, it's one of those things that some people might shy away from wanting to do that. But I just felt very strongly that these guys needed to hear my voice. So right there is the key. Some coaches might not do that. But at the end of the day, I'm not afraid of that. Trayvon was one of the guys I called.

Obviously, he and Mike are very close. and he and I had really good conversation. And again, I'm not going to share that with you guys, but he appreciated the phone call. And again, not everybody feels like they have to do that as a head coach, but I do feel like those guys, I wanted them to have a chance to talk to me. And I said, you guys can say anything you want to me. Here's kind of why we made the decision.

Here's what went into it. And again, those conversations were powerful. Powerful. Yeah, there's a lot there, man. I mean, the biggest thing being that I would pay a lot for to hear those phone calls. Like, what is Trayvon thinking? Can you have 14 calls that are all real powerful? Right, yeah, at some point we're devaluing the connection piece.

Like, let's just say, how long does it take to have a powerful call? Let's say it takes 15 minutes. Boy. What is, how many hours is that? Four and a half, five hours of just powerful phone calls to tell guys Micah got traded. But seriously, when he calls, how many guys are just like, you had nothing. thing to do with this. Right.

You think Trayvon cares what he says? Just rolling dice. I feel like it's got to be just a lot of... Okay. Okay. And Blake's right. I thought... Borderline thought shot he was going to be like,

oh, at the end of the day, you know, not every coach will call code switch and say, brother. You're going to love this one. Just checking on your brother. Hey, brother. You're going to love this one. I think that that's part of how you move forward

is you have conversations. And again, a lot of coaches probably don't feel that way. But I thought it was very important that once this happened, that they heard it for me. A lot of them had heard it broke pretty quick, which it does nowadays. But you still get on the phone and you say, yo, what's up? It's Shottie. Got a few minutes.

Oh, no. And you visit. That's right. A new drop. Yo, what's up at Shottie? God bless. In fact, maybe the name of our week, we'll go over Shottie's post game press conference every week and we'll call it. Yo, what's up, and Shottie?

I'm going to need that. I'm making the theme with that. Awesome. Yo, what's up, and Shottie? He might go down like a Chan Gaylee, but his body of work's going to be like Tarantino. Yeah, just the short period of work. Question and answers, intentionality, paintball.

I was pissed off learning about it that Micah got to play paintball. He knew he was leaving. He was getting free paintball. And that's like why I went to youth group. Yeah. He came to camp. He's calling the guys to say, I wanted you to hear it from me, like, they care. They already knew.

It's been verified by everyone. Jerry had a press conference and shot he's calling him two days later. Why don't you to hear it from me? It's also really funny. I don't know the inner workings of the team, but to imagine that there's 12 or 14, like, who's guy 12 and 13? Who be calling? Are you calling Maris Leophow to be like, Maris?

I know this is tough. Well, this might have something to do it. Hold on. Because they asked about team captains. Yeah. If the player selected captain, Jeff. We actually voted on today. And so I'll let you guys know when I get them all tallied up.

And we are going to do, I think I share with you guys, we are going to do a year-long captains along with, you know, a captain of the week based on guys that deserve it. But like I said before, I think it's really, really cool to be able to say you were a captain of the Dallas Cowboys in 2025. Yeah. So it's a participation trophy this year. They should get it sponsored by Captain D's. I actually don't Captain D's captain of the week. So by the end of the year, how many people will be able to go to the bar and tell some chick they were the captain of Dallas Cowboys?

There's six every week and there will be one more in rotation. Okay? And I think it's a huge deal. To have one in rotation. No, just to be one of the six. That's a huge deal. To be one of the year long captains? Yes.

Yeah. My point is There's a lot of guys that have been to Cowboys training camp and are telling girls that they were on the Dallas Cowboys But, okay, so I just need you to know this Oh, unless you want to hold on, I got a little game to play Play name that coach We're going to move the pieces around

And we'll always be looking for matchups I think that's what Fluse and A-dub A-dub we'll always be looking for matchups. I think that's what Fluse and A-dub. Defensive Yaron? I can't remember. We'll always be looking for match-ups.

I think that's what Fluse and A-dub, white-cotton. When I say A-dub, you guys know that. White-cotton. No, but they have a guy, what's his name? It's not white. Aaron White-Cotton, yeah. All right, so. What do they call him, A-dub?

A-dub. Okay. So, all right, there's a half-hour press conference. It's right after Micah. Every question is about Micah. Micah. Micah. It's Brad Shan's turn.

Oh. Oh, good. Brad Sham, Cowboys Radio 1053, the fan. In other news, you mentioned the two... So snarky. So snarky. He's upset that all... All these people just want to talk about, Micah, when are we going to move on?

In other news, the season starts in a week. Well, what's... In other news, you mentioned the two defensive banks you claimed a couple times. You better not! Do you envision a competition in practice for the slot position? Now you've got the two guys you used back on the press. What do you like about the guard from the Eagles? Yeah, well, I'll talk about Bridges first.

that's masterful and that is another edition of yo what's up it's shoddy and listen if we do this right the next sound you hear after this little stinger will be the new dumb zone theme the dumsah

dungza dungza I don't know I'm going to I never listen to the dumb zone All right, all right, all right, all right. Alright, alright, alright. I never listen, I'm gonna listen till the dance song.

Alright, all right, all right. I never listen, I'm gonna listen to the dance song. Alright, all right, all right. Don't know Tom Time Oh right Oh right

Oh right Oh right I never listen to the Dumb Don't listen to the Dumb time Yeah

There it is. Turn up the mic, please. Real nice. That is Jordan, Jorts, Richardson, and Caitlin, Kno block. I don't know. Do you have a nickname? That's it. You got it.

Well, I would probably choose a different nickname or middle name, right? Yes, yes Caitlin Kristen Something besides Caitlin yeah make it Real obvious Real obvious Oh okay more the other way

I love it Yeah so that is The new theme song The iPhone update Slapped on our show That will Start now I suppose But

Hell yeah Starting tomorrow That's the new theme song That's the new theme song That Play it again We actually will Later on today, tonight

Did we decide when we're dropping the documentary? Let's say this afternoon. So we actually have a documentary That was, they did the filming of creating the new theme song Behind the music And if you think like Jorts is like Jorz is a real live music producer He's got like a real studio he's not just sitting there on his laptop he's it's awesome to watch the documentary is very cool

because a lot of thought went into what you did you got to give something a lot of thought when it's as a momentous as this because we did say we want to do a we want to do kind of an iPhone up let's just freshen things up and starting with the theme song and starting and doing a lot of the daily elements and all that kind of stuff. But I was concerned about, you know, the... Caitlin sent us that song, and I saw you talked about it in the documentary. Like it was August of 2023 when we first started doing the pod. And as I recall, there was a lot of...

There was a few different songs. Like, if you listen, go back to the archives in our first few shows or first couple weeks even, I don't think we were using Caitlin's song. Like there was another guy, there was a couple different ones, and then Caitlin's rolled in, and we're like, oh, this one's sweet, and we just never stopped using that one. Other people had sent other songs, but we just kept rolling with that one. And then, you know, obviously right now, then we, I was just concerned that Caitlin would be upset. No.

They were looking to mix it up a little bit, but I'm glad you were in. involved in the process with Jorts. Was that cool? It was amazing. I got to kick it with T.C. and Jorts all day. I got to watch this, dude. I mean, it was. That's right.

That's right. No, it was actually a really, really good day. I've never been in a studio like that, so it was awesome. It was really cool. Your studio's like in a barn or something, right? It is in a barn. Yeah, not far from here. Not far from the dead.

I just don't think most people know, like, what a producer does a lot of times. And it's different for every person. Yeah, in the music world, like, you see Rick Rubin and people are like, okay, that's probably, he just, I don't know. I think you think of producing, you're like, oh, they make beats when it's like hip-hop. That's right. That's not what he. I mean. It is what he does, but also just what he does, I don't think most people know how that comes together.

So that documentary to me is. Yeah, that gives you a pretty good look into what, like, I'd say, the general picture of what a music producer. is kind of a some some producers are the engineer too so they're actually setting up the mics and plugging the stuff in and getting the sounds which i do that i'm kind of a producer engineer then there is your rick reuben type who just like quotes you know uh Carl young or some guides them you know into being their most creative self yeah people just quote like some old esoteric art author and i said i need to move the bridge or i don't really understand what you're saying and then there's

that where there's like, you know, let's arrange the song together. So we did all of that. And you'll see in that documentary, it's pretty, it's, it's a great watch. T.C. made it and it feels like, kind of like one of those classic albums. And this will go down as a classic. Sure. It's getting ahead of album. Why I have to go back and do it later.

It's a great watch. It's 90% me talking, but it's a great watch. That's really what you're saying. Yeah. I mean, that's how you know you're going to get something good. Yeah. but Caitlin had the hook already. There's no reason to, like, go far off of that.

I was a little concerned about, you know, going down to three all rights out of five. I didn't know how people were going to take that, you know, but it. Radio edit. Yeah. So we took the hook and just kind of flipped it, as they say, that's a term. Yeah, dude, you're so inside. We just flipped it. We kind of put it in a different key and made it bounce a little bit more.

What did you want, like, dark and hype? Dark and hype are the adjectives I heard, and not a dirge. Yeah, so when we did the dumb zone or the hang zone theme, I don't know if people liked that or not. I can tell you that that came out exactly how it sounded in my head. So for months before that, how I had heard it in my head, we sat there with George for forever, then he worked on it, and I'm like, this is exactly it.

It wanted to sound like a late night show, have the intro, this one was like i wanted to sound like the old theme but it needs to be we need to have more pop to it um but i don't want it to sound happy i still wanted to be like hey this is dirtbag territory we're not you're not getting like nobody here's showered i wanted to feel like cigarettes and yeah yeah that it's sweaty like that yeah it's a good thing the new clips album came out like a couple weeks before and that you're a fan of that because I was just listening to like just the darker side of things that that hit like a beat you know and uh the old hang zone theme who knows how this theme is going to stay for the show but I wanted to incorporate like I wanted it to sound

like you're sort of uh hit you know out with the old and with the new so the old hang zone theme is kind of inside of that a little bit is that this let's see yes So this you produce for us Uh-huh For the ticket show Yeah So you use some of this In the open

That's right, the end of it The big hook The thing that I think you love the most Yeah But da da da da da da da Wait where is that again Let me get back to that, sorry Uh

Yeah. So that's the part you used for the start. Yeah. Okay. Wouldn't it to sound like you're walking up to a cloud? I think that means it's so special to go back and have that at the very big. Okay, and then the worst thing was, so now I don't know anything about music and everything. And you're incredible.

And so now we're talking about... That's all you need to know about music. Well, but now we're talking about doing it. You had made us this, and then I'm like, I don't know if I want that. Like, that's... I thought it was too much lead time for a daily... Because you do the old hang zone theme is like 14 seconds. Then it's another 10 seconds until it gets to even an alright, all right, all right.

And I just thought that's just too much hanging around time. I knew you'd be thinking that, too. I was like, he's going to want to shorten it. Yeah. And we're over there making the song just being like, I don't know. T.C. is literally making a documentary about something that they might hate. Yeah. So hopefully they don't hate it because I don't think we're going to redo the documentary.

Right. Just wear the same clothes. So you did redo it to where possibly we can use this on a daily basis and call the other one the OG or something. Yeah, just gets you right into it. But I felt bad like even giving those notes because I'm me and you're you and I should just bow down at the throne and accept whatever you offer. I'm used to it.

because I do like film and TV music and you'd be surprised the comments you get like they're like can you make it sound a little more I don't know warm but cold and make it a little more green you know like they'll use terms like that when you're reading stuff about SNL or whatever it's like oh these idiot suits

who didn't know anything about what we're doing all of a sudden they come in with their notes and so I felt like that guy I feel that but the difference is a suit you're on the show and you have to hear it's your creative product that's right of the day so the suit who's never done a tv show coming in and saying here's a tv show you know what it takes to do more than they do more like you're going to have to sit there for 25 seconds every day which is torture and but one more cool thing though uh the other option was like what if we keep the thing at the beginning

and then we move the all rights up but i really like lyrics that start like at the back half of the fourth measure or whatever it is like i like starting the line at the end and so yeah we actually have that part we kept that we have one where we move the lyrics up goes straight into the yeah i think that's too quick yeah you want that and lead up into it so you start in the back half of like the chorus yeah you got to give them an intro you know if you listen to your favorite song on the radio or something it starts and very few of them just start with a lot of stuff you have to explain to us intro is not one of them yeah you listen to a song it starts so i was messing with the intro and i don't even think i played this for you because jake and i

played it for each other off the air and like because i was wondering even this is that too soft so i was like let's say we're doing a spot we're doing like uh we do our pre-show spot is like a window nation right and so um all right so get your windows at uh window nation dot com 866 90 nation that is window nation dot com okay and then well i'm sorry just do it again i'm sorry i didn't have a cue you get a free estimate at window nation at 866 90 nation that website is window nation dot com And I was like, is that too, like that, I want it to pop and the open hits. Yeah, that's one of those bad notes.

Well, no. Yeah, it is bad. So he played it for me. So I did this. Without asking George to edit it, I thought, okay, I can at least edit it rudimentary fashion. And I could, if this sounds good, we'll have him go in and do it, you know. Go ahead. Window Nation at 86690 Nation or Window Nation.

but I don't like that I thought I was going to like it but I don't I think it's too quick I feel it and I also I agree as we did it with each other a few times and we played it out it's like that's a little too harsh yeah there's no foreplay at all like at least a kiss and go back to the other one

this is the corny Rick Rubin thing but I think visually when I make music so I see it as a graphic like flying at the screen Yeah, boom, and then it's in. Because if you do, let's do Window Nation again. Nice. You can schedule yourself a fast. Wait, do they have a, wait, do they have the whole.

We haven't talked yet. All these activities we could have done. Don. All the shoddy audio. Right. We wouldn't be talking yet. No, now. Not even now.

Now. Okay. Now try another one. I'll tell you the place where I think you want to start. Start talking. It's when it starts going whee-o- Yeah. Nice.

windownation.com. Got to hit it while you're still talking a little bit, right? Cook it up. Yeah, that's the move. Bring it. So, yeah, we did it a couple times. We did the... All the phone together is I'm reading the...

I'm like, all right. Do the Windonation. You'd be like, windownation.com. And, yes, it's... I love the... Yeah, that seems right. You're winternation.com. Too harsh.

Too harsh. Yeah, too harsh, too. Too harsh. The old Hangs Home intro, it was more like to satisfy an itch I had to be like, maybe this one will be played the first day. And here we are. So, uh, we'll play it. I want to play it every Friday,

but I don't think that's the only... I think you wanted to use it to satisfy the itch of they can't stop me from playing. That's exactly right. I really wondered about that. That's exactly right. I own that piece of music. No one ever asked me to sign that over to them.

You're a person I will not question about that. And thank you for you guys for sacrificing your bodies. Yeah. Yeah. It's all good. That's why we did it. So you could have clearance on that song. Yeah.

I love that. But just your description, though, and it's in the... documentary of course 20 minute documentary but just you were on the phone with us after we first heard this and we're fist pumping loving it and all that yeah and then like can we take the first 14 seconds out i know like you spent like hours on that but uh just the thought i don't know can you give us a 30 second or a quick you did it to us on the phone you're like oh i used this i used the j z's this and i used this from this and uh this is what i've Yeah, I just, I wanted to incorporate the old theme, at least to, you know, for almost as a bit, kind of thinking you might not use it.

And I'm glad that you found a good starting point that's not that. And we could edit that in. But I kind of visualized, like, it starts all filtered like that. It's kind of, it's kind of crunchy over the, over the Internet. So I'm kind of glad it's not going to be used. But the, I visualize somebody walking up to their car. And if you hear in that intro over the hang zone, there's like this thing going like, ding, ding, ding.

And it's like your car door's open, but the car is on or something. So like there's an abandoned car or something, then somebody gets in, closes the door, and now it's the dumb zone. It's not the hang zone. So that was kind of like the narrative idea. And then, you know, he...

That might have been better if we started using that right when we left the ticket, right? Right. Because then it's like... Right. Yeah. More of a... There's been two years. I had to scratch the itch that I've had for two years to do that.

But, you know, the production elements were like, like we said, we heard dark and hype. So to me, that's kind of like, you know, Dre 2001 or Kanye or something like that. But I didn't want to make a straight beat because that's not as fun as setting up microphones around a drum set. So the beat is me actually playing the drums and stuff. And it's, there's nothing like there's no. That's in the documentary. Yeah, there's no samples or anything. We just, it's all keyboards or guitars or whatever.

And then Doty, who helped me with the hang zone theme, who's kind of my production partner, he's the guy playing the guitar on the new theme. And you get to a little bit later, and it's going, bunt da-na-na-na-na-na-na-all-right, all right, all right. Bunt da-na-na-na-na-na-na. They hook in the hang-zone theme at the end that you hear in the intro is,

but it's just in a different key. It's a minor key instead of a major key. so whatever it's not a music theory class but it's just all like inside jokes to like make ourselves feel cool it's got little easter eggs in it i guess and then it's all katelyn's hook from the original theme that we just put in the relative minor key of what's yeah yeah and condensed it and you know it's awesome it's good it's a beautiful thing yeah because we did have you also you took the rubbye thing and remix that too. Right. And that was part of my thought

process on, can you do something with Kate? Like, I don't want to lose Caitlin's theme. Yeah, I mean, he was able to do it with Rubier despite the fact that he can't stand to my... Listen, it's not true, Mark. You're fine. You hate Rubbyet? No, I don't hate Rubberie. You have to know that in the music world, anybody

who's doing something like, somebody's going to be like, all right, dude. I feel like that's kind of what your reaction is. You see it and you're like, all right, dude. It's okay. To us, it's like, oh, Yeah, fire to a cave. But if you know, like, you know. I'm just jealous of his manhood, how he looks in those boxer shorts.

I'm just jealous of that. That's awesome, man. It's so awesome. Oh, you have it a lone star? Hell yeah. All right. I've been waiting for this day. I've been waiting for the new theme, so.

Off the wagon. Celebrate. I truly, I want you guys to know that I walk downstairs at 5 o'clock in the morning, California. California time to Dan's little layer and I had brought my Bo's headphones with me and Jordan had sent the song the night before and I placed them on Dan's head and I ended in my phone. I was like, you have to hear it here first. It was incredible. Oh, that's great.

So you woke up to that? He was like we just got up and I was, yeah, he's grinding. He'd already flipped the tire. That's 7 a.m. Dallas. I live on Dallas time when I'm out there. But it was, yeah, it's so cool. I wish everyone should get a friend that you could just like talk to. really vague ideas about music

and then they just report back with exactly what you were thinking. That's... That is incredible. It's a good bit. It's a good bit. I guess start by having a friend. Buddy.

That'd be fun. What were we sad about for him the other day? Nobody will swim with them. Oh, yeah. Nobody will swim with Dan. I was in my car. I was headed over. They were probably listeners everywhere.

They were like, if I knew where, I'll come swim with you. I was talking to a guy this weekend. He said, oh, I heard you need a swimming, buddy. I was just out swimming in my pool. You guys should link. I was like, all right. Anyway, I love it.

Documentary. I feel weird calling it that, but it is really cool. Behind the music. Our YouTube page this afternoon. Behind the music on the making of the new theme song. Thank you guys for letting me stay involved. I'm super stoked I got to work with you. That was amazing.

Yeah, we're going to do more of this. Hell yeah. We're going to do more projects for you guys. guys too if you'll have us that shoddy drop from today my mind is yeah the wheels are turning we love it right now can you play it again dan uh yeah i got a lot to do not have to get to do the wind donation thing again are you no not the theme i want to hear the shoddy oh whatever he said oh yeah yo what's up at shoddy okay cool yeah yeah what's up at shoddy um all right let's tell you about Lucy.

Ooh. Boy, speaking of our special teams, boys, they love them some Lucy. It's kind of like whenever you... Oh, okay, see you, Caitlin. Caitlin's got to go back. It would have been weird if I kissed your hair. I almost did.

He's like, we can't keep them on the shelves because they're the only people who make 12 milligram pouches.

Hey everybody All right, let's do this Here's Jay Wow, I think he's a little grass Nobody won the Powerball Yeah, I didn't play, so I knew nobody won it Because they're waiting for me What'd you leave here, Caitlin?

She left her keys up here. Yeah, it's called a garage. Doge door. TXChrynet.com. That was unnecessarily mean. She's like, do I hit the thing to open it? She's trying to be kind. I know.

Staggering $1.3 billion. There was no winners last night. When's the next one? Wednesday, right? And this is the fifth largest prize in history. Okay, I'll play. I probably got a good chance of winning. This Wednesday will be the 41st one since they've had a winner.

you'll probably win if you pick your own numbers That is the case That's usually how it works But Like I just didn't have time this weekend I just didn't want to I don't know I was got the cold salmon in the car

TC said one of the weirdest things I've ever read in my group chat last night And I've been thinking about it since then So Nellie Furtado was a singer Is a singer but she was a big singer in like the 2000s And I remember her being pretty thick Yeah, I saw that footage. Nellie Furtado has put on hips, and she looks incredible.

Looks like she put on about 80 pounds, just crushing it. And apparently people were like dragging her for it, but I sent it to our group chat, and I'm like, guys, have you seen Nellie Furtado? We're happy? Oh, my God. I don't know if Dan will be. Dan might not be, but I said, to the group chat, I said, every famous skinny woman should try this.

Like if you were a skinny hot Just beef up a little And see what happens And his reply Oh Sarah Michelle Giller Jennifer Love Hewitt Jennifer Love Hewitt Yeah if she was at

I know what you still know what you did last summer And everyone was like eight Yeah I guess mean But no I said every skinny starlet should try this And TC's reply was When I win the lottery they will Is this some sort of program

Like it does How does money have anything to do with this? It does suck when they get skeletorish. Like the Who's the lady that's She was in Happy Gilmore, Modern Family The mom in Modern Family Sophia Vergara?

No, no, no, the blonde. I was in Happy Gilmore. Don't know her name. I don't know her name. Anyway, she was hot and Happy Gilmore. She was hot when Modern Family started And then she started losing a lot of weight And she just got a bit too skeletory.

So I'm going to have to agree with you here. This is a good topic. I mean, if you've got to go one way or the other, yeah, this is very hot-minded. Yeah, as we're back. Take shots at Dave Portnoy. Well, we're saying gain a little. That is the main thing.

You don't have to keep gaining. Although I did love the era of anore. Look at this. Look at those hips. My God. I like the era of anorexia. Settle down. That's what I grew up in.

Your computer's moving. But just a little. George, you ever go to Burning Man? Hell no. Don't hell know me like that. You couldn't have bumble after your way into... You're right. You're right.

With like the Prince of Morocco or something. That's how I would have gone. But no, it's not... No, I can't handle that. Well, there was a man found dead at Burning Man. The festival. The art and music festival. This guy just found it a pool of blood in Black Rock City.

which is the makeshift encampment. I saw that the wind knocked down the orgy tent. I saw that a wind knocked over a tent. I did not. Yeah, it was the orgy tent. It was branded, too. The guy might have died from that. I just, this is one of those things where I imagine,

I guess this is what, like, Ricky Jervais did with one of his guys, but just the idea of, like, a series where Dan's at Burning Man. That's thought was going through my mind right now, too. I see Dan. We've been to festivals that are not Burning Man, but close enough to where I can kind of imagine how it would go. But Dan having to deal with whatever that is, that sounds like the worst bet payoff for him ever. It's just a – try to describe it for Dan. So it's not like sponsored.

It's not like ACL or Lollapalooza. Buy tickets. Yeah, it's just if you can get there, right? And it happens to be like, wooks – do you know what a wookie is? Like someone who's at a jam band concert who's just – just looks like they live in the forest. It's like that kind of person combined with tech billionaires. And it's like they're all out in the desert kind of wearing, you know,

straps and leather and crow masks from like the Black Plague era. Kind of a Mad Max feel to it as well. And it's all like we don't deal in money out here. It's all like, you know, the currency is your body and your soul. And they construct art and they have orgies and they invent Uber. and stuff like that basically yeah they did it on Silicon Valley in the last

last season that the main guy he threw his music festival at the end of it it was sort of based on Burning Man but it's like anything goes and this is how the future should be and we can get out here and then they burn a guy and that's like

you know cleansing your soul or whatever they don't burn a real man like big techs or something yeah it's like they burn a big text in the desert and you've never been I haven't been to Burning Man you don't desire I don't desire to do that okay no like hotel rooms and stuff

yeah no I was going to say Jake you could probably just make me go to any actual festival like with a VIP badge and I'd be like this is a bad payoff that I have to be here the VIP badge it's pretty sweet that's a lot better because there's air conditioning and places to set and get away from the music

I think we've got to get you a general admission ticket I'll never do that again. No way. I'll never GA a festival. I'm done. That ended early for me when I did my first, like, played a festival, and they let you hang backstage. And it's like, oh, that's cool. There's, you know, there's a girl from the OC and Liam Gallagher.

I'm never going to just go to a regular festival again. Stand out there with the woks. Yeah, with the woks. A man in Houston has been charged with murder. Very sad story is the fatal shooting of an 11-year-old boy. who was doing some ding-dong ditching. Oh, I saw this. Yeah.

What's up with that? Man, it's a horrible story. All of our local news is led with it last night. We should have more guns then. Here's the weird part. You first see this story, and you're like, it's Texas, dude. Like, you're knocking on somebody's front door, Castle Doctrine. But the guy was running away.

The kid was running away. Yeah. Like they knocked. take off, person inside the house comes out. Witnesses said they heard a couple of different, a couple of gunshots go off, and the kid had multiple wounds. Dead?

Yeah. Yeah. Died on Sunday. He was, then the kid, the guy was arrested, I guess overnight. Old man? No, dude, he's 42. Ugh. We were a 42-year-old guy and-teed up.

Yeah. uh i tend to focus on like how it you know would help you with brain fog and just enjoying time with your kids that's true uh more more for me but this is ticot related although that's kind of an interesting a ticot trend is to shoot people that are running away it's a challenge yeah they have to be running away and they have to be pre high school for it to count but the shooter can do a dance while it's happening on top of a milk crate yeah uh i mean people say like oh this is a you know We're bringing up TikTok, and we're saying it's a TikTok phenomenon. And, like, I certainly buy that there's an accelerant factor to social media and spreading things.

But, you know, people have been doing this forever. The way you used to do it was, like, you found out about a friend who did it. So sometimes I feel like we boogeyman social media a little bit. Maybe TikTok especially because it's kids in China. Yeah. Of course it would exist. But all it took back in the day was one friend to come over and you did it. Right.

There's a matter of showing off. One friend with more balls than you. Or sure. Because if I showed up at someone's house, they weren't like, boy, the balls have been up here. Let's do something crazy. They were like, the snitch is here. But ding-dong ditch is like the lowest level of all the things.

Like you're not egging a house. Yeah. Even toilet paper is a beating to clean. It's the lowest level as long as you call it that. It's terrible. And not the other word, the other name that. It was quite common down here. That one only down here?

I would imagine. It didn't even make sense to me. No. But you wouldn't bring the doorbell, right? You'd knock? Yeah. Yeah, okay. It's terrible that a 42-year-old was the shooter

because he grew up doing that. That's true, too. Yeah, it's not, like, from, he's not 90. And from, like, Denmark, where that's an ultimate, like, it's a witch or something. Yeah. Like, then he grew up doing that. Just rough.

Just rough. Like, how inconvenience must you be by getting out of your chair? Yeah, like, what is it? How about this? Don't get up. Yeah, I know. When I hear the door? No.

Somebody knocks at the door? Especially not at night. You got to knock a couple times. Someone knocked on our Airbnb when we were in California and nobody went to the door. Yeah. I forgot about that. And you guys ordered pizza, didn't you? I don't know what it was.

I'm scared. I just assumed Dan or Jake would take care of it, and nobody did. I assume not. It's like a UPS or something, right? Don't they all do that now? Man, I got a real problem with that, too. Because they'll wake up the baby? Why do they need to knock?

If you're going to leave the package, knock if you need a signature. Because they're worried about your porch pirate. Yeah. I guess. I appreciate it, but if I had a sleeping baby at home, I probably wouldn't. It's not their fault. It's my dumb dog's fault. Yeah.

Dog not doing well, guys. What do you mean? Don't feel like we're... I want her to see this Super Bowl. You've got more time than you think. My dog's been on death's door for a year and a half. Oh, we're, yeah, I mean... And you'd be praying for her to die?

Yes. Yeah. I've got the shovel ready to dig the hole. I was disappointed by how prepared my children seemed for it. Like, Nora was not sad by this prospect, really at all when it came up. She was like, she's old. I think we've been hanging out with your mom too much. What a good handle on things she has.

Yeah, right? I'm doing this quick story here for Clayton, but also just because there's a word in it that I want us to focus in on. So McDonald's is bringing back extra value meals, Clayton. This is $5 for breakfast, $8 for lunch and dinner. This is something they did back in 91 and did away with in 2019. So they have, okay, I was thinking Happy Meal. No.

Value meal. These are like drink side item for $5 or $8. It's a good deal. All right. Now, the reason I did it, though, is because the press release says this. Joe Erlinger, president of McDonald's USA, said in the press release, the chain is, quote, laser-focused on delivering value and affordability. So if we could somehow work that into our up, the dumb zone, laser-focused on getting some of the reeds right each day.

Just wobbling. Wobbling back and forth. Maybe you'll get it right. You know the quick trip, Dan? Burger King. What are they doing over there? Playing broiling. We're laser-focused over here That's right Quick trip, what? On 30 and...

Oh, this is more me, not you. 30 and beltline I used to go that way a lot. By the Waterburger and the race track. Correct. Saturday night, Sunday morning, Grand Prairie Police gets a 911 call from a lady screaming

said that her drunk boyfriend was driving armed with a handgun, assaulting her as they were driving So this guy had sort of like ditched her I guess in this parking lot At the Quick Trip

The cops show up He's still in the car They're giving him commands Get out of the car Get out of the car Show us your hands He doesn't According to police starts reaching into the back of his vehicle

And they double tapped him right there In the Quick Trip parking lot unloaded yeah and a search of the area in the vehicle afterward where he was reaching revealed a loaded handgun

all right you don't get too many that feel as justified but it is weird I don't know if you guys feel this way when you see a gas station that you've stopped at

a lot in the Metroplex when there's a murder or not a murder but a shooting or some big crime sometimes a murder like the 7-11 down in Grapevine

by grapevine mills there was a shooting there like four months ago i'm like i'm here often i don't i mean it can happen there's a lot of shootings yeah i guess that's a great point what are you doing just reaching in the back i mean like hammered that's the thing you're hammered yeah no i'm not have you ever been drunk to the level where you're like i still have an awareness as drunk as i've ever been i still have awareness that i might i shouldn't grab a gun in front of a cop i think one thing that works in my favor is i'm a lightweight so i would just pass out before i got to let's make a life ruining decision of that nature uh did you guys know we were still doing uh bigamy which i guess is kind of another word for polygamy a north carolina

a man was subject to a criminal investigation and arrested for marrying three women. Nice. So, I'm trying to make sure I get this right. So it's all a matter of being officially married. It is a matter. We have a bigamist listener. Yeah. He's got two wives.

And it looks like the reason why you have issues with this here for legally is financial. So the guy had gotten married in a few different counties and was running this game. Like they didn't each know? No. Okay. No. Full family everywhere? Don't know that.

I was talking to my dad about side. I had lunch with Chappi yesterday. You give Chappi an opportunity for lunch, George. Sure. And you buy it? I bought, but also there's like a million places I'd like to take him. My man wants Mexican in. Yeah, he wants Mexican in.

Those Fritos. It just doesn't want to, and I'm like, that's fine, Pop, so. Does he say, oh, la to the server? To a white one yesterday. Indeed. But we were talking about, like, separate, like, secret families. I'm like, you think he could pull it off? And he's like, man, I had some buddies, you know, I kind of wondered about, like, they'd be gone for all week.

But I don't have, I figured he might have known someone. I bet Stan's known someone before. Yeah, definitely. He's car salesmen in the 80s and 90s. Yes. So, yeah, I don't know full family, but it is illegal. It is illegal to get married multiple times. And then what do I want to finish with here?

That's big government getting into my business. Big government overreach. We've done all the new laws. Oh, this is a fun one. One in four, so that would be about 300 Texas school districts and charter school. have signed up for a state-developed Bible program. So I guess it's just your district, but, you know. What does that consist of?

It's materials, reading materials, religious components. It's what you think it is. It's Bible education. It's Bible and Christianity education at school. I'd like an infograph of the problematic mascots related to the people who signed up. Oh, boy, no doubt. If you brought back Robert E. Lee in the last two weeks, you're like, get it in here. You might be on the Bible study list.

So the commandments had to go up, right? Yes. But there were some holdouts. There are some holdouts. I heard about some teachers. And I think also your district, maybe your district can give you a little leniency on that. but I don't know. I know I sound like a flaming, woke-tard,

but I just would rather my daughter or my son not be taught religion in school. Seems like obvious to me. At all. And it's weird, too. Unless they start teaching math and church. It's kind of like my porn and sports. I really don't need it. I don't need scantily-clad women.

I love them both. Love porn, love sports. Love math. Love religion. Love your children. church love your school yeah to me it's uh it's i think it cheapens religion i think it it cheapens it to be like hey right this thing that's like the core of your existence what does it mean to be a person what is the afterlife uh we're going to get to that right after we get to uh who was at

the alamo on texas side like these trivial i don't know i just it seems odd to me that that this is not weirded to people like I was listening to our buddy Ethan Strauss who's about my age I don't know where he grew up but he definitely spent a lot of time living in the Bay Area and he's talking to another guy from California

and they're just talking about the culture war and how we've never lived in a center or right wing culture in our lifetimes and like that may be true but I feel like growing up here I don't identify

with that at all certainly like I would go to places and realize like I definitely can't tell my girlfriend's parents that I'm agnostic I remember when grible like on bad radio in 2007 or something I heard him say that he was an atheist and it was like a huge you guys were like what like you're saying that on the air yeah and so to me it's weird when I hear people say no it's a left way I'm like Fox Fox News is on at my gym every day isn't it the same thing as saying a man, the white man being kept down, and we don't have anything anymore. Like, that's a joke. Religion. Right, no, but people say that for real. Right. And if they're like, oh, religion under attack, you can't, it's

just... I'm like, man, I don't know. It feels like everything is very religious. Yeah. I feel like we do the anthem before the sports... Sports Scott God and it. Anyways, there's your news. All right. Let me lean over here.

Where I discuss a bunch of things that... I say bother me that I'll do nothing about. It was funny going from private school where, you know, we're learning inside whatever, or inside Bible stuff, I guess as you will. And then going to like secular stuff where they're like, all right, let me explain the ark. Like, okay. Yeah. Got it.

Okay. You were witnessing remedial God. I'm sure. I didn't realize. You already up to speed. I didn't realize that in church school, like my wife went to a, you know, for a time, a small private church school, that there were, like, Bible,

there was scripture in the math books and stuff like that. They would incorporate, I thought it was just meant, like, for a part of the day, you also do church. Like, we had chapel. They were talking about religion all day long, like in all the subjects. Why not?

But that's Hood County. There's math in the Bible. Girl math. That's how you get made out of a rib. It's girl math. So your mail birthdays will be brought to us by Lone Star Beer. We have a remote this Friday. Dude.

Brought to us by Lone Star Beer. I want to let you know about that. Very excited. Nomad Grills. We're there. It's a Rangers Astros watching party. I probably don't have to tell you, Dan. It's Bishop Arts.

Yeah, what's the deal with the Rangers? I didn't come in hot. I quit. No, but I was just talking to somebody this weekend. Like, hey, man, we're two games out of it. Wait, you told me last week we're done, and I'm never going to watch this team again. Like, stop it. Are we done or not?

Are we done or not? Are we done or not? It's a crazy stretch. All right. Well, watch Rangers Astros, eat Zavala's barbecue, and drink ice cold lone star beer or lone star light. Jorz is having a lone star beer right now. The red one. It's great.

Hell, yeah. Reminds me the glory days of South by. Oh. Don't say that. And we're doing the show starting at 4 p.m. That's important to note. So we'll be there at 4, do some program. Then we will let you watch some Rangers on the big screen, all that kind of stuff.

That's the guy she hooked up with, right? Yeah. You guys did the dating game for her? I don't think they're still. They're not, but it's amorous. But they might have. The D was enough to get a happy birthday. Yeah, yeah.

That's quality. And for 50, might want to run it back for his sake. At least hit him with him with. Are you up? Yeah. Dear Muffin Man. Day 1, D.F. number 329. Yes, I paid for that day one gash, because that's how we do it in America.

If you don't like it, leave. Nothing wrong with that. It is my Jerry Robinson with the Raiders' birthday. Who? I don't know. Number 57. I submitted the requisite Venmo for the shout-out. I would like to submit a request to change the term for beatoff to executive time,

like what Trump put on his schedule all the time the first term. That was a very cool flex of his. And it was funny, too, because when Biden got elected, they tried to do the backwards hustle of like, we're going to fill its whole schedule out and show you how awesome. He's working all day. You see how that worked out. They didn't even put executive time on the schedule this weekend.

They didn't? No, just nothing. That's how Belichick did his depth charge. Did you see that? No. Nothing. He gave the media, the broadcast of chart. He used first names for the positions, you know, like for the various linebackers.

It's just like Will, David. That's all it said. Other than that, it just said position. No, he's listed Will, Sam, and Mike linebackers. Yeah, that's right. He's just, he's not giving you anything. Yeah. Okay.

Real cute. Well, that helped, right? Didn't they do pretty well? Go frow. I don't, like, I don't, I'm sure that if they're going to be good, it's going to take some time. But it occurred to me last night, and maybe this is obvious. They're going to get people wanting to skull F them. Oh, yeah.

Everybody's going to be like. What's like what you get if you have Dion on the sideline? It didn't take Dion very long to kill TCU. No, they might be really bad. Yeah, game one. Let's see. I'm a quitter just like Jake, except I didn't need the hab like a pussy. It's true.

Hard as F. In a speech at the Minnesota State Fair, I learned this morning. Was that the Minnesota State Fair? Yeah. That's a big deal. I learned that that is an African proverb. So why don't you go back to Africa? Theodore Roosevelt.

On this day in 1921, the first bowling shirt was designed. I was pretty fired up about that. Boy, I bet. I used to be a big bowling shirt guy. Do you still have the one from Cleveland? I do. That's not a bowling shirt. That's a bowling theme t-shirt.

But I also have a dumb zone bowling shirt. Matt Grimm made him for us. Yeah. Why did you say his name like that? Matt Grim. Yeah, that's a good one. That's a very good one. On this day in 1963, the governor of Alabama, George Wallace.

This would probably be good. Well, there's a high school. Tuskegee. Was that the Jerry one? No. Tuskegee High School. They were like, hey, we're going to integrate. And so the governor sent state troopers to circle the building so that no black 14-year-olds could walk in and learn.

That's the only bad thing that's ever happened to Tuskegee black people. Yeah, I think he was just, it was just about local rights, Dan. It wasn't really a race thing. Oh, yeah. Okay, cool. I'm trying to have something. On this day in 1969, many regard this as the birth of the Internet when two connected computers at the University of California, L.A., UCLA, passed test data

through a 15-foot cable. All started there. Really? I thought my lover's father invented it. He claims it. And why not? On this day in 2012, 19-year-old Jerksson Profar became.

the sixth ranger ever to hit a home run in his first at bat. Also the third teenager to ever accomplish this. He's Major League Baseball. On his way to being the greatest baseball player ever live. Turns out he's pretty good. Yeah. Just not here. And heavily aided by steroids.

Really? Yeah. They had a little run. Not that long ago, right? I think it was after Dan Bailey when they were in the aftermath of that, yeah. Jeff Russell, former ranger, 64. Good dude. Terry Bradshaw, 77.

Now, what do you know about any interactions with him or his family? With Terry Bradshaw? Yeah. He's out that way. I saw Terry Bradshaw when there's a mall by Fox Studios. In L.A. In L.A. Me and I took my dad over to see where Ronald Reagan's offices were, which are also in Nakatomi Tower.

It's the same building. And so we were checking off a few boxes, and Bradshaw was headed to get lunch. Okay. Yeah. We both yelled at him. He and Stan both were like, Terry! He gave us a knowing nod. Jimmy Connors is 73.

Eric Dickerson is 65. Brian Westbrook, 47. says here Kempstman next to Marcus and Markeith Morris. I mean, that's kind of a roll the ball out one. But the funniest one by far is when they confronted a guy who was banging their mom at a youth basketball tournament and beat the brakes off of him. Because I don't even think he, it was it, did he threatened their mom? says beat up a guy for texting their mom.

I think he was just texting their mom like, hey, is everything okay, you good? Like somebody had just died, like her, I don't know, but he was, they were mad that this guy was buttoned into mom's situation. And they, like, they jumped him. I bet he didn't text her again. I bet not. Dude, Markeith was in all sorts of trouble last month.

I love those guys. It was the gambling thing. Like some casinos said he owed X amount of money and was, I don't know, a lot going on. Lennox Lewis is 60. That might have been the first Tyson fight I saw. Rick Manning is 71. He is a former Cleveland Indian great. Who, I believe, was traded.

What was he traded? Maybe they traded Dennis Eckersley because one of them was banging the other one's wife. Okay, this is that story. And they had to get rid of someone. It might have been Eckersley was banged. Manning had an affair with Dennis Eckersley's wife, Denise. They eventually married and then divorced. Like if they eventually married and still remained married 50 years later, you'd have to be like, okay.

that actually was your soulmate, even though it was your buddies and teammates' wife. But absent that, it just looks like you're kind of a horny jerk. Yeah. Yeah. Like, you have to stay together. You have to do it for the kids. Selma Hayek, 59. Dude, this is, I'm sorry.

Go ahead. Who's fantastic. Let's talk about Rick Manning. So. I'm trying to see Okay, it was his first wife I'm just making sure here it was It was Eckersley's first wife

Because then he got married to a model named Nancy O'Neill Do you know who that is? Okay They adopted two children Then got divorced He married his third wife Who was a former lobbyist

And marriages manages his business And charitable affairs But I thought I thought they were on the same team while Rick Manning was... They were. Okay. Yeah. I just thought, okay.

Even when I was little, I thought Dennis Eckersley looked insane. Yeah. Like just a hobo, sketchy drifter. He's pulling models and... Looked a little bit like... And lobbyists. Wait, what did you call it? A wook? A wook. Yeah, he's a wook. Yeah. A little bit of a look. Yeah. Eckersley's like a wook.

I never heard that. He looked scabby. Like, he'd have scabs on his face. Yeah, definitely. in the in the payday oh my god MLB Hall of Famer Dennis Eckersley reveals he is applying for guardianship of homeless daughter's newborn son she abandoned in a freezing tent

Cat Williams, 52. Dude, he set this whole thing in motion. With what? I contend that in the same way that, Hannibal Burris got Bill Cosby arrested. Cat Williams got Diddy put on trial. He went on, like, Shannon Sharp's podcast. It's like the start of 24, 2024, and was like,

there's a whole lot of people who are hiding things in this community. I remember that. It kind of started happening. Like, people started getting popped. TD Jakes had to retire. Mm-hmm. Who Cat Williams mentioned. Do you, Cat Williams?

Wait, was that. Harvey Levin is 75. Nice. Looks great. Was he on the bus when he took the TMZ tour? No. This is likeness appear on it. Dude, the TMZ tour is good.

It was good. Harvey Levin also co-hosts People's Court. Really? He's got to be a lawyer. They'll go out to, yeah, they'll go out to the street to get the man on the street opinion. I've seen that. That's 11 with the mic. That's a good addition to that show.

This is like Twitter right there. Let's see here. Oh, then Dumb Zone birthday of the day. 61 years old. Kianu Reeves. Wow. Johnny Utah. He's taught us so much.

Special agent Utah. I knew I could count on you. I've been to every city in Mexico. Came across an unclaimed piece of meat in Baja, turned out to be Rosie. Let's see what else we got. Okay, man, okay. Johnny Utah gets his man.

I want to go to jail and I'll pay and Johnny Utah gets this guy. Right? Just for you. That's real good All right Might be a servant You know It's a crime

That we haven't done that movie In a theater As the Dumb Zone I agree We need to figure this out We might have been over leveraged On one theater That closed and foiled our plans

We need another one Born on the Stay Now Dead Adolf Rupp He was not really into integration either, as I recall. And I once slept in the Rupp Arena parking. So we get a car naps. Yeah.

That is the Kentucky Arena, or at least it used to be. I don't know what they do now. And Krista McCullough, born in the Stay Now Dead. She is the... She's not dead. She's part of the Yebu from last week. We announced we're going to put a school teacher in space. Yay.

She never really made it to space All of the Challenger astronauts took a slide once they were loaded onto the shuttle and they all have surviving. Two of the Challenger astronauts have twin, identical twin brothers. There's a lot of lookalikes out there. One of them started a company

that the logo is like a, looks like the contrail of the smoke when it exploded. It has a rock. a chip there's some stuff out there if you want to look about the challenger wow it ain't all what they say it is okay i've never heard any of this that's all one real it sounds awesome i thought blake might know about it no yeah he will by tomorrow yeah nice you bring back dumb zone reports investigates and dead on the stay still dead i'll give you

deceit money Denver. That was Gilligan. Gilligan's Island. You ever watch that, Blake? No. Are you aware of Gilligan's Island? Yeah. We never did our Henry review, did we?

Leave it to Beaver, maybe? Yeah. Well, let's just see how the second half gets of the Cowboys Eagles game. When we're parking the bus. Yeah, when the Cowboys are up 48 to 3. I think they can be good this year, but if

they get stomped Thursday, it's going to be tough to stem the tide of negativity in that locker room for shoddy-hottie. I mean, Philly, they're the defending champs. Dude, if they do what they can't do to you. Now they lose week two. Yeah. Even if it's barely. That will be something.

Good news is they won't. Again, I feel like I'm the only one that knows that the Cowboys have receivers named C.D. Lamb and George Pickens and the Eagles have white defense. offensive becks. That game is over. That works with Jalen Tolbert, but we're not playing that anymore. The most valuable handicap I've heard about the game. It's right there.

It's good to know. You can have white cornerbacks against guys named Jalen. What about eight and ten minute drives from the Philly offense? Have you met Kenny Clark? Our savior. I do like looking at, you know, you see. people put out. Well, let's take a look at the Packers' defensive rankings against the run then the last few years. Yeah. Wasn't his fault. Yeah. Micah does need injections. That is an interesting

part of that story. I half way wonder if he's just faking it now so he doesn't seem like an asshole to Cowboys fans. Oh, he has to? Yeah. You ever take NyQuil just to stay home? I'd not consider that. I got Hall's breath. And dead up to stay still dead. J.R. R.R. R.R.R. Tolkien. Who has a character named after him on South Park. Jokin, roken, roken, Tolkien.

And that's what happened on this day in history. How about that, folks? closing remarks brought to us by Frankel and Frankel personal injury attorneys if you do get in an accident and it's not your fault and you're dealing with the insurance companies

you might want to call the Frankles personal injury attorneys they're the best in fact they use those insurance companies tricks because they have people at Frankel and Frankel they used to work for the insurance company

so they know their mindset they know what they're trying to do and they will get you what you deserve Do you happen to know the phone number there, George? 214 and MASH 3 until sweet climax. Also 817 will work for that as well. That's how the Frankl's roll. That's more my speed.
