Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello, I'm Dan McDowell, longtime professional broadcaster. Why subscribe to our Patreon podcast? Well, perhaps you support our struggle to get out from under the oppressive thumb of the man. Or, objectively, if you sign up at patreon.com slash the dumb zone, you'll get the two episodes per week that are available on all podcast platforms, like this one, plus an additional two episodes each week that are exclusive to Patreon. So subscribing on Patreon gets you four episodes per week. Oh my, what a bargain. Now, on to today's program.
Starting point is 00:00:37 The Dunza, Dunza, Dunza. Hey, it's Tiger. I need you to do me a huge favor. Can you please take your name off your phone? My wife went through my phone and may be calling you. If you can, please take your name off that. And just have it as a number on the list now. Just have it as your telephone number.
Starting point is 00:01:09 Okay, you've got to do this for me. Huge. Quickly. All right, bye. Cheers. Oh, shit. Will you just mix the thing? You're not going to do it, are you?
Starting point is 00:01:31 I don't think so. All right. I don't like behind the scenes. You're not going to do it because we're doing video today and you hate me. It was pretty funny, though. Oh, yeah, yeah. It was a good start to the show he's pent up who Blake
Starting point is 00:01:50 yeah pent up on not being able to yeah ruin our lives for a whole week you're right that's what was missing
Starting point is 00:01:58 from my vacation just punching up to you guys punching up punching up take a look at that payroll. You heard what I said. So yeah, I talked to Jake this morning and he was like,
Starting point is 00:02:11 remember Blake wasn't here last week. I was like, you sure? Because everything ran great. You know, I felt like there was an extra little pop, you know? If you need me to take another week, I'll take another week. Don't threaten us. But I did see some complaints about the timing
Starting point is 00:02:31 of the release of the episodes. Oh, geez. And there you are sitting right next to Michael. Hey, Michael. Good to see you, bud. Cakeland right there, just filling in dutifully. I thought he was doing a great job. In fact, he said, let's leave them wanting. Let's just see the desire, if the desire is out there, and it was.
Starting point is 00:02:51 He was edging the listener. We have a weird move of, and I suppose this will become more apparent in the coming days and weeks, as a great man once said, of putting all of our best-looking people behind the camera. Yeah. Other video man, striking. You and I, potentially on a commercial for HIV medicine. We're falling apart.
Starting point is 00:03:17 Yeah. You're the before model in actual commercials. It's okay if y'all just don't kiss, please. Sorry about your grandfather. They don't need to see that. Yeah. Yeah. I think they do.
Starting point is 00:03:32 We are here and we're out on a, we're not doing a 690 sit-in today. Is this a 690 sit-out? Sure. Yeah. We are out and it's a video show as well.
Starting point is 00:03:45 Thanks to Michael Copeland. Is it copelandproductions.com? Put it here. Copelandproductions.com. That'll take him an hour. Okay. No, it'll take him less than a minute. That wasn't even a joke.
Starting point is 00:04:01 I just meant like adding... Michael, that was not a shot. I'm sorry about Jake. I just... That was even a joke. I just meant like adding that. Michael, that was not a shot. I'm sorry about Jake. I just, I want people. That was not a shot. I just feel like, I'm just saying like Dan asking for something. Because last week we were, Michael was trying to figure out how to do the audio stuff. And Dan's like, get a speaker.
Starting point is 00:04:19 Get an extra headset. We got a guest. We need another mic. And Michael looked like the Kermit typing meme. A got a guest. We need another mic. And Michael looked like the Kermit typing meme. A very demanding guy. Yeah. We're at a sit out.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Yeah. And the person, I gotta admit, well, let me just welcome Caroline Pfeiffer. Is it Caroline or Caroline? Line?
Starting point is 00:04:44 Do you have the mic? Grab the mic. Yeah, grab a mic. Caroline. Don't be shy. I love your house. Oh, my God. The best house.
Starting point is 00:04:53 Beautiful house. I'd like to stay here. The best house. In fact, I'm now here. Oh, you're not leaving? Try to legally... You're squatting? You're squatting?
Starting point is 00:05:01 Squatters rights type thing? These days, yeah. My mom said Rose called her and said Rose was concerned because Rose was in Florida visiting her daughter. Your mom's friend. Rose is 80 years old and she's stoked on, like, she told my mom the other day, because my mom said, what is this?
Starting point is 00:05:20 She asked me, what is this news place? She goes, Rose just told her the only real news is news max yeah that's and it's really big uh so rose was concerned because she was visiting her daughter in florida that that somebody was going to squat in her house in ohio and when she got back she wouldn't be able to uh to get That's awesome. Like she's legit. Like she had to get back quick. Being old sucks. Like you just believe everything.
Starting point is 00:05:51 Yeah. I know. I think she was telling her. You don't really have time to not believe it. I said, if you ask Rose, where's John F. Kennedy? Because she was also telling her he was going to appear in Dallas on some day. Yeah. Why was I talking about Rose? What were we just talking about? Caroline. You in Dallas on some day. Yeah. Why was I talking about Rose?
Starting point is 00:06:06 What were we just talking about? Caroline. You were going to squat here. Oh, I'm going to squat here, yeah. This is kind of part of the deal with Caroline. Beautiful house. Back to Caroline. So I'm very sexist, though.
Starting point is 00:06:15 I found out. I thought I wouldn't be. I'm a girl dad. As you're a girl mom, right? Correct. Two girls. Kind of the same thing. Jake used
Starting point is 00:06:26 to be one of us. He didn't even say one cop. Then he... No, no, no, no. He's growing. I try not to say that with my daughters, but you're right. With Caroline's daughters, I should have. What am I doing not
Starting point is 00:06:41 picking up that fumble? Anyway, I walked in and I thought, oh, okay. She introduced herself, Caroline, who's very nice. And then I thought, well, certainly Caroline has set this up for her husband. She has bought the 690 remote, and this is kind of a gift, because we've had that happen a couple of times already. We have. Last week, maybe.
Starting point is 00:07:06 Indeed. A street man. So I was profiling. Yeah. Caroline just figured, okay, now we'll meet the guy who actually wants us to be here. But no, then the guy
Starting point is 00:07:19 is very confused. Who are you two losers? Very confused. He's like, well, I'm happy to meet the guys that my wife listens to every day. Yeah. How did this occur, Caroline? This is true.
Starting point is 00:07:33 Take us back. P1. So I think for probably 10, 12 years, when I became a stay-at-home mom, it's on all day, every day. Okay. Either on the house speakers or on my headphones. So Mark unfamiliar with He is familiar when I tell him
Starting point is 00:07:57 when I feel like he needs to know something. Usually all the funny stuff. But over the years, he's become, he listens a little bit. He's picked it up because of you but he's doing deals he's yes yeah he's got things happening he's lubing the deals you know what i heard about the ticket actually uh no subscription that's right i actually have yeah you don't have to enter your credit card number you don't have to you don't have to pay anything and it's just there on demand all the time. One of my pieces of viewer mail addresses that.
Starting point is 00:08:28 I'm sorry, addresses what? Just the fact, it says I was listening to the ticket and they did a promo basically about how there's no monthly subscription for it. Oh, I didn't even know that. And the email says petty F's. Well, I think they're just
Starting point is 00:08:44 providing facts. It makes me want to go contribute to your Venmo as an FU to them. I'm never going to turn that down. Venmo at the dumb zone. Yeah, that's our... It's the most amazing house I've ever seen. Digital tip jar. How about that?
Starting point is 00:09:02 I just, I don't even know, dude. I don't know where to begin. I could live like in their kitchen. Yeah, I feel like we could get lost here and they wouldn't even know we were here. I know. Got a grand piano. Not a piano. They got a pool boy. Are you upset
Starting point is 00:09:17 the husband's home when the pool boy's here? A little tension there. Yeah, well, thanks for having us out thanks for being here this is good times do you know like your number or your day and all that
Starting point is 00:09:30 I was telling Blake I'm actually very disappointed in my number because I couldn't find you guys I'm searching Dan and Jake podcast and it was either the D Magazine or the Mom Game I think it was when you were on the Mom Game
Starting point is 00:09:43 that I finally me not you. I think it was when you were on the Mom Game that I finally figured out what it was called. I'm not very proud of my subbie. So you're not on the Twitter because that's kind of the only place we do promotion. Oh, no. Not on the Twitter. Yeah, we got to branch out.
Starting point is 00:10:00 Are you on the gram? I am on the gram. Okay. I'm a mom of two kids and that's my prime. What's the gram? I am on the gram. Okay. I'm a mom of two kids, and that's my... You have to be on the gram. Prime, yeah. What's our gram? We do okay there. It's just hard to put links.
Starting point is 00:10:13 I think he meant like... At the dumb zone 69. Yeah. Yeah, I tagged you this morning. Is it? So we didn't get the dumb zone? How do we not get that? I tried to change my Instagram to Bracket Dan
Starting point is 00:10:25 because it used to be Graham McDowell. And I just wanted to... I'm branding myself and I'm trying to be consistent across all platforms. And Bracket Dan is taken. Must be from P1 or whatever.
Starting point is 00:10:41 So if you are out there, come on. Help a guy out. So I'm you are out there, come on. Help a guy out. So I'm BracketDan69 for now. Yeah, I think I'm going to have to start a new one because mine is like Kemp1310. But honestly, like... No, you can change it. Oh, you can just change the handle?
Starting point is 00:10:56 Yeah, because I was... Yeah, the problem with Instagram for me, I would love for the show to do it more, but the problem for me is I'm a big fan of butts. And it feels like every single time I look at Instagram, which is like once a week, I'm just overrun with butts. Well, see your previous comment. If you're just liking pictures of butts,
Starting point is 00:11:19 I'm going to show you butts. I've never liked anything. I've never commented on anything. I've never posted on anything. But I've probably looked at one A-butt. Yeah, and it could tell how long you hovered there. Yeah, how much I zoomed. And so now it's just delivering me NBA free agency rumors and butts.
Starting point is 00:11:39 Both of which I'm into, but I feel like I need to look at less butts. Seems like it has you nailed pretty well. Yeah. But I don't want that in my daily life, though. Like Twitter, I can just go see people fight. Yeah. Instagram, it just seems like a lot of... I always thought Instagram was just, it's Twitter, but just pictures.
Starting point is 00:12:01 Yeah, but it's now, it's way more like glossy. Would you say that's fair, Caroline? I would. Yeah. It's your highlight reel. Yeah. And you can't put a link? It doesn't like links.
Starting point is 00:12:14 Yeah. You can correct me if I'm wrong. It's just anytime I try to put a link on the post, it doesn't do well. Yes, I can understand what you're saying. Because Instagram doesn't want you to leave Instagram oh none of them correct correct but i mean people definitely like influencers definitely like put the link to their shop on there yeah but that's keeping them that's also that's then you're getting your swipe up you know what about link in bio okay yeah can we put that that's been then where is it gonna take? Where is the link in your bio taking you?
Starting point is 00:12:47 That's the question that none of us can really answer now. I have a brief weekend story for you. All right. This is Jake Kemp. I'm Dan McDowell, and that's Blake Jones, by the way. I just don't think we have to do all that anymore. You've got to stop doing that. Oh, really?
Starting point is 00:13:03 I actually got some support on that. People are telling us we need to do all that anymore. You've got to stop doing that. Oh, really? I actually got some support on that. People are telling us we need to do that. Yeah. Why? Branding. Brand yourself. So we went on Saturday to Chicken and Pickle, the pickleball place. I thought you said you would never go there.
Starting point is 00:13:19 We didn't play. Nobody played. It's essentially just like a large outdoor area. Like you brought your kid? Both kids. Yeah, everybody brought their kids. There's a huge playground. There's like a big Jenga.
Starting point is 00:13:34 Yeah. Big Connect Four. Okay. You know? I'm on board. The Masters and the Rangers and the Stars are on. They got drinks. They got food.
Starting point is 00:13:43 Whatever. So I go over to the playground. Wife and I did with both kids, five and one and a half. And there's probably a space from where the playground construction ends to the fence that's like maybe 10 feet wide. You know, and it's wood chips. Right? And then it's probably about
Starting point is 00:14:11 40 to 50 feet long. So it's a pretty slim little area. And it's not that long. And there is a youth baseball team there for their post game. Their parents probably wanted to go knock a few back and hang out. And there's like 15 of them in their uniforms.
Starting point is 00:14:34 And they're playing full-on tackle football. What are they, 10, 12? 10, I would say. Yeah, somewhere around there. 10, 11. A lot of grab ass. Dude. Horseplay. Ten, twelve? Ten, I would say. Yeah, somewhere around there. Ten, eleven. A lot of grab ass? Dude.
Starting point is 00:14:48 Horseplay? My wife got drilled in the head with a football. Oh, no. And the kids are coming down the slides, and it ejects them into what is now the field of play. And I was very close to being that guy. I was going to say, now do you... Because I probably just
Starting point is 00:15:11 try to gather everybody and just walk away. Yeah, but then that comes with a whole... That comes with a whole... Or I just hope someone else will step in. Yeah. With higher T. Did you do it? No, and I didn't even, it wasn't even really
Starting point is 00:15:27 like a T thing. In my mind, I'm like, man, I was This is like the slap. It's exactly like the slap, yes. Because you're worried about, yeah, your kid. But like, you know, a one and a half year old, like he runs like it's Tecmo Bowl. Like he runs in an S curve, you know?
Starting point is 00:15:42 He doesn't have a straight line. If he wants to go from here to say where Caroline's sitting, he's going to run to where Dan is sitting and then over to where Caroline is. He doesn't... Maybe. Maybe. His moves are unpredictable. Now I've got a team of 10 and 11
Starting point is 00:16:00 year olds who all have Patrick Mahomes' haircut and Oakley blades on. Some of them even have Be' haircut and Oakley blades on. Some of them even have wireless Beats headphones on. Don't know if they're listening to anything. Don't know. The rest of them have AirPods in. They're just running.
Starting point is 00:16:16 I saw another little girl get trucked. That was the point where I was like, dude, I'm telling you. If this ends up landing at my front door, I'm going to say something. Yeah. Not to the kid. Yeah, do you wait until your kid gets hit?
Starting point is 00:16:33 What did you do? How does the date end? I basically boxed them out. Okay. So I turned back towards the playground. So you're blocking for your kids. Pretty much, yeah. And, like, kind of had my arms out a little bit and, like, backed up,
Starting point is 00:16:48 which definitely messed up their game. I mean, I was eating 20% of the field. You know? So they would just run around me. Now, is wife imploring you to be the man of the house? No. That's always a weird bit. No.
Starting point is 00:17:05 She normally has to dial you back a little bit. She does, but she also, if you would rewind the tape a few minutes ago, got hit in the head with a football. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Exceptions to every situation. So you're ready to step in if one of your kids gets hit. Yeah, I mean. But they're blood.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Yeah. Your wife is not a blood relative of yours. So, I don't know. It's just one of those things. And you run into this at like, you know, the bounce house place. We go to one called Kid Empire. It feels like a ton of birthdays are there. There's Cheeky Monkey.
Starting point is 00:17:42 That's another version. I mean, this is why they have... Where you're just like, this kid is being a dick. But why they have the Easter egg hunt in age groups. Yeah, for sure. So if you've got a bunch of 10-year-olds playing with a 1-year-old and a 5-year-old, that's not going to mix.
Starting point is 00:17:58 Right. Yeah. Especially 10-year-old boys, right? Because they're idiots. Yeah, I mean, although I will tell you this, uh, one of the kids who I, uh,
Starting point is 00:18:09 on site just hated, like he looked like he probably will even 30 years younger than me be my boss one day. Um, they had a female with them. She must've been one of the older sisters for the team. Like one of the boys' older sisters. And she had braces.
Starting point is 00:18:29 And she looked like she was probably 13 while they were 9, 10, 11. Leg braces or mouth? Yeah, it was mouth. Nobody ever, ever thinks of that. And you're aware of how they talk, right? Like kids now? I don't remember.
Starting point is 00:18:51 I'm aware of older teenagers. I'm going to fill in the name of the kid, and I probably won't be that far off. She goes, Mason, bruh. Oh, my God. Why are you so short, bruh? And it was like the shortest kid in the group uh-huh and he goes well that's something his balls she's like well uh he said that's something that i cannot
Starting point is 00:19:12 control oh wow uh so um why do your teeth look like that and she was like bro i was born premature bruh oh my god whoa she was like my teeth are like this because I was born this way bro and he goes that's what I mean that's something you can't control but I didn't point it out
Starting point is 00:19:32 until you pointed it out dang awesome damn bro yeah that's a our future lawyer yeah
Starting point is 00:19:39 gained a lot of respect for him in that moment he was like that's what I'm saying. I didn't point it out and I wish he wouldn't point it out for me. So I've never asked my wife this, but I'm going to ask you.
Starting point is 00:19:52 So you find that your husband was searching porn, let's say, right? Whoa. Okay. He's just sitting here. He's going to take it. He's exiting the room.
Starting point is 00:20:03 But I've always had this hypothetical, and I've just wondered what would be more disturbing. Okay, so back in the old days when you could access Pornhub.com or something. RIP. So sorry, guys. A guy hooked us up. It works.
Starting point is 00:20:22 You've already tested it. The VPN? I just tested it. I didn've already tested it. The VPN? I just tested it. I didn't test drive it. Some guy said he set us up with a VPN. Yeah, I responded to that. I said, thanks. I'll watch the next Rangers game with it.
Starting point is 00:20:34 That's what I said. Jacob's testing something else, apparently. No, I was watching soccer. Sure. What blackout on soccer do we have? The beautiful game. The world's game. The beautiful game.
Starting point is 00:20:43 The Windy City. So you find that there's certain searches within the porn site. Oh, geez. Keywords, you know. For me, it's always missionary. Wife. Like I'm just looking for something with my wife and it's missionary. I just search loving wife.
Starting point is 00:20:59 Okay. I don't even care what else is going on. I just want two people who are in love. Cuddling. Cuddling after. Actually, you know what I search? Communication. what else is going on. I just want two people who are in love. Cuddling. Cuddling after. Actually, you know what I search? Communication. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:09 Listening. I search guy listening. Because that's what I love. My favorite part of everything is just listening to her problems. Stepbrother listens to stepsister. That's right. Did you search it before or after your couple's dinner? Ooh.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Did you search it before or after your couple's dinner? Oh. So, my question is, you find out that he's on, you just see that he's searching porn. And you see that he's searching braces. Would you be more concerned if you were to go down that hole and find that he was searching mouth braces or leg braces? It still gets me every time. I think that's an easy answer. Is it?
Starting point is 00:21:54 Mouth braces because of the age that's normally associated. But otherwise, he's searching for crippled ladies. I'd rather it be a lady. Let's just assume they're all ladies. Oh, they're all ladies. Right? Yeah, okay, yeah. Are you getting weird over here? No, yeah, we're not searching 13-year-old girls, but... Well, that's just assume they're all ladies. Oh, they're all ladies. Right? Yeah, okay, yeah. Are you getting weird over here? No, yeah, we're not searching 13-year-old girls, but...
Starting point is 00:22:08 Well, that's my first thought. See, that's what I've always said, too. I've always, though, thought it to track... I've been... I think this is wrong. You should be careful with whatever you're about to say. Don't you think kind of a 30-year-old or whatever 35-year-old lady that has braces, there's something appealing about that?
Starting point is 00:22:28 No. Or is that like... No. No? Not at all? No. I don't know. I have to say this was not on my bingo card. Is that wrong?
Starting point is 00:22:37 Of what we were going to talk about. Should I not say that? Can you cut that out, Blake? Well, I mean, I think what you're saying is that you want adult women to cosplay as younger women. But I mean, it's just, it's a cute look. But I feel like you're using the euphemism. I'm going to try and dig out of this hole. You're using the euphemism cute for prepubescent. But I am repulsed.
Starting point is 00:23:04 Not so repulsed, but I'm not on board with, like I don't like, pigtails on a 35-year-old lady. Well, that's a bold stance. Don't you think that's weird, though? If you're trying to allege that I'm just into dreaming
Starting point is 00:23:19 that she was young, then pigtails, that would be certainly a... Sure, yeah. That would be a bit over the top. But I'm way against that. But on the leg brace... But I've always thought a lady who's that age in braces,
Starting point is 00:23:33 I think that's attractive, and I don't know why. Is it because they're trying to better themselves or something? I don't know. I mean, that's really weird. When is the last time you saw more than one or two people with braces? You don't see that very often. When his VPN fires up? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:53 Yeah, my wife has thought about getting them and now I definitely know. So leg is the pro. You're helping them. You're hoping that it's leg. I think so. I think so, but you're not 100%. Not 100%.
Starting point is 00:24:10 Is there an option C? No. Iron lung. This day and age. Search iron lung. Yeah, what if it was a wheelchair search? As long as she's over a certain age, though, you're fine with it, right? Nobody else had to say that.
Starting point is 00:24:28 Okay. No. They're all way over a certain age, okay? Way over. I'm not talking 18-year-old. Nobody's being exploited. I'm not talking 18-year-old with braces. I was talking 35-year-old with braces.
Starting point is 00:24:43 Anyway. Jeez. Let's move on. On today's show, the WNBA draft is tonight. Kaitlin Clark was on SNL. Yeah, I saw that. Hey, I'm going to issue a watch. Not a warning, but a watch.
Starting point is 00:24:59 SNL? Come on. On the way back? Dude, it's been pretty good lately. It actually has. If you haven't seen the Beavis and Butthead sketch from this weekend with Ryan Gosling, that was hilarious. That was funny.
Starting point is 00:25:12 See, I only saw it because I saw a couple clips, and those are the ones that were floating out, the Caitlin Clark. Well, I think they figured it out, right? I was asleep at 9.15 on Saturday. So Sunday morning. I don't at 9.15 on Saturday. So, Sunday morning. I don't know how you vary so much. Used to, I was pretty consistent. I can't go to sleep three hours different
Starting point is 00:25:33 than I went to sleep last night. Well, I guess I did once, and I was in France. Yeah. I try to stay... My wake-up time is pretty consistent. Yeah. My go-to-bed time is a little bit different. So, if you go to sleep at 9.15, you will get a nice full eight hours? Yeah, and if I go to sleep at midnight, I'll get five. Okay.
Starting point is 00:25:52 So, yeah, I went to Chicken and Pickle. Had a couple cocktails. Oh. And we went to, oh, I popped my Bob Jones cherry Saturday. You never been to Bob Jones Park or the Bob Jones Nature Center? Neither, but we did the Nature Center. Okay, yeah. Because it's, you know, that's, we have four more parks on the way to there.
Starting point is 00:26:16 Yeah, my older daughter worked there last year. It's super cool. Yeah. Yeah, so we did that for like two hours. You could learn stuff about science. You can. Like butterflies. Yeah, my daughter's stoked on butterflies, so it was really cool.
Starting point is 00:26:28 And then ate a little candy and went to bed at like 9.15. And then next morning, I feel like I consume SNL now way more because they figured out like we'll just put a five- or six-minute clip on Twitter or Instagram. Yeah, I enjoy that. And then I often will go from there too. All right. The full episode.
Starting point is 00:26:47 Let's kind of scroll through the episode and see if there's anything on here we like. I don't know how we started talking SNL, but... Caitlin Clark. Caitlin Clark was on there. Yeah. I mean, that bit was like, you know, that's something they do a few times per year. But she did well. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:03 I was a little bit distracted by, she didn't really know where to look. So it was like obvious that the whole time if I were talking to you right now, Dan, that I'm just looking like this. Hey, I watched that. You know what I mean? You know what her jacket was?
Starting point is 00:27:17 It was like an in, like a Nebraska in, but she's not from Nebraska. I assumed it was maybe like her high school. I saw something on the social that said it's a Nike logo. Oh, really? Yeah, it's like a new Nike brand. That makes sense. She's about to make bank, bro.
Starting point is 00:27:34 I can't believe she would just sell out like that. So that's tonight. Venmo at the Dumbo. Possibly. That's very loud. That's all right. You got a high ball. Cup of ice.
Starting point is 00:27:51 Yes, that's right. I have an old fashioned. Possibly we will put the raps on the eclipse with a little audio. We have golf audio. We have Trump audio. That's in the news. Oh, we're saving that
Starting point is 00:28:07 for the news? Yeah. Because I found a really nice thing. Oh, also, I did want to promote the fact that we sold out
Starting point is 00:28:18 our big 420 events, but unlike some events that are sold out, you can still be there on YouTube. Mm-hmm. H-T-T-P. No, just Google YouTube the dumb zone.
Starting point is 00:28:36 Oh. It's just going to be so much easier. No. Yeah, on 420, that's Saturday, at 420, we will do a live stream from the Alamo Drafthouse in Las Colinas. You know what's funny is like, I think I've told you this story before, but my mom has told me, she didn't really tell me this until they got divorced. When she was like, you know, the first time I ever went to your father's apartment,
Starting point is 00:29:03 he was growing pot. Oh, wow. Chappy? Yeah. I'm like, that's awesome. Yeah. Why are you telling?
Starting point is 00:29:15 I thought you wanted me to not like dad. He's like, just backfired. But, that being said, I was telling my dad about it. And he's like what do you mean i was like well it's like a pot thing he's like what about it oh he didn't understand the 420 thing no i was like yeah we're doing it saturday and he's like what time i'm like 420 he's like 420. He's like, not 430? Thank you, man.
Starting point is 00:29:46 He just had no idea. That missed him. But yeah, that was a very funny moment in my upbringing. It was like, your dad. Have you ever talked to him about that? Like said, hey mom once said this to me? It took a while, but I've done it
Starting point is 00:30:03 for sure. We gotta remember that come football season. I'd like to discuss that. He's pretty available whenever you want him. Publicly, yeah, I know. We could probably pop him on right now. Yeah, so watch our YouTube page if you want. Yeah, I think it'll be cool.
Starting point is 00:30:20 We have a world premiere of a video. Yes. That we will lead off with and talk about. We have golf audio today because Jake, you know, Jake. Major Jake. He loves him some golf. Dude, I got to tell you. In all my years, not just of watching the sport,
Starting point is 00:30:41 but of watching that tournament specifically, I've never seen aiming corner play like that. Like what? Not just of watching the sport, but of watching that tournament specifically. I've never seen Amon Corner play like that. Like what? Just hard and fast. You know? And you could tell how it changed from Thursday to Sunday. Incredible.
Starting point is 00:31:01 You got to give it to him. You got anything before we dive into golf? It was the Masters weekend. Yeah, Blake was on vacation for a week. He left. Was he? During the eclipse. What do you think of that, Caroline?
Starting point is 00:31:14 Unbelievable. Actually, I thought it was pretty awesome. That he left? No, no. Oh, the eclipse was awesome. Just going back. I was kind of like, Jake, I didn't know if it was going to be that big of a deal. But at our kids' school, they brought them all out to the football field we went. And I was kind of like, wow, it was amazing.
Starting point is 00:31:32 So I'm sad. I'm sad Brooks missed out. And now Brooks will never remember it. How will he grow up? And all those kids are going to have this cool memory. Yeah. Except one. And Brooks could have had it.
Starting point is 00:31:42 Oh, man. Yeah. Missed it. It was a collective experience. Yeah. Like one. Brooks could have had it. Oh man. Missed it. It was a collective experience. Yeah. Like it's what we yearn for. Unity. We want that. It brought all together. Like Breaking Bad.
Starting point is 00:31:54 Mm-hmm. And black, white, purple people. Yeah. Everyone. I don't care what color you are. Yeah. Well, we had booked this trip before space.com alerted us that there would be an eclipse. Yeah, that was probably years ago. I was talking to you about this a year ago.
Starting point is 00:32:08 Fucking 25 years ago. Thousand years ago, they knew this was going to happen, but definitely within the last year. There's no way, Dan, you knew about it a year ago. Check the tape. I might. I was promoting it to you guys. I was trying to get you stoked. Didn't work.
Starting point is 00:32:25 No. So, yeah it to you guys. I was trying to get you stoked. Didn't work. No. So yeah, we went skiing. And I'm glad y'all had a fun time with the eclipse. The videos were great about how it was dark for three minutes. That looked awesome. I was sad to see it. You're going to hell. Y'all had fun?
Starting point is 00:32:41 And I had fun. What's wrong with this situation? Anyway, went skiing in Colorado. My wife's family was, they gifted her a timeshare. Oh, a little South Park type? Kind of, a little bit. Did you have a bad time? No.
Starting point is 00:33:02 No, so we, our timeshare is in Avon, which is about two hours west of Denver. And the vacation hack that we explored this time was taking the grandparents. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And that's a lifesaver. That trip that we went on recently to New Mexicoxico pretty much everybody had parents there except us okay yeah we've done that we did that for our and it works out well because we don't live near our grandparents yeah or the kids grandparents because we met them in florida so they remember that a few
Starting point is 00:33:39 years ago yeah yeah it's quite some time ago probably when you went to go see the leprechaun yeah yeah yeah that's when the grandparents came. So I could just leave. I could do whatever. And the grandparents are happy. Like, oh, I get to spend all this time with my granddaughters. I'm like, yeah, that's why I'm doing this. For you.
Starting point is 00:33:54 Yeah. I'm leaving for you. So it kind of works out for both. Because my wife and I really enjoy skiing. But there was no way that we could take Brooks and ski. And so my dad skied for the first time since I've been born. Uh, he had been away a long time. And then my mom just watched Brooks, uh, one day at the, at the ski resort and another, uh, just back in the timeshare.
Starting point is 00:34:17 And it worked out perfectly. Uh, all flew out there and, uh, got the rental car, got driving up in the mountains and then they would just have these spotty snow storms just randomly like you'll go up into the mountain and you'll drive through like this little mini blizzard and then you'll drive down a little bit and it'll be clear and then you go back up in the mountain and it's driving through another blizzard and so driving up in the mountains through ice and snow was pretty troubling just because I'm not used to it. But made it through. I think we should probably pay
Starting point is 00:34:49 our ice road truckers a little more because that seems pretty crazy what they have to do because they were having to chain up their tires just to get through it and their runaway truck ramps, which seem insane. Like if you just lose your brakes.
Starting point is 00:35:02 What's the fatality rate situation is there? I don't know, man. I just, anytime, even when we were driving. I mean, enough to where they made a reality show about it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:13 But I felt for them, man. It was, like if you've, I don't know, just going way, steep grades up and down seemed problematic for them. But they have to.
Starting point is 00:35:22 You ever put chains on? No. That's surprising to me. Yeah, but I've always seen it. It's a tremendous, tremendous beating. It looked like it. Just to get it put on? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:34 Yeah. It's like either roll into them or back into them and hope you have it all. So you've done it? I've seen it done. Okay. Multiple times. No, I mean, I've been stuck in the snow plenty of times. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:47 But never really. I guess our big snows would at least dissipate enough after a few days. I think if you lived in Buffalo or something, you probably would. Yeah, I would imagine so. That's deep snow. So you drove back and forth the whole way? Yeah. I think we put, I think, 600 miles on that rental car.
Starting point is 00:36:07 Because where we stayed is about 45 minutes from the mountain that we skied at. And so every day it was, you know, 45 minutes back and forth. And then on Sunday we drove to Aspen just because I wanted to see it. That's crazy, right? Yeah. And I'd been there once before, but I wanted to show my parents. But there's a restaurant there called Poppy Cox that is really good that Jerry Jones frequents. A couple years ago when we went, I had a Cowboys shirt on or whatever, and the owner came up to me and said, hey, Jerry Jones' table is right back here.
Starting point is 00:36:43 They're known for their oatmeal pancakes, where it's like a pancake, but on the inside is basically oatmeal. And it's fantastic. Oatmeal pancakes. Yeah. And so apparently Jerry Jones buys this mix and sends it to every player on the team every Christmas. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:37:00 He'll buy like 500 bags of mix and send it to everyone that works for the team, the players, everything. And he has nothing but nice things to say about Jerry. Like really down to earth. Gene always circles the restaurant talking to people. That's what everybody says. I know, but it's still cool to hear. It is cool.
Starting point is 00:37:19 Everyone except his daughter that he won't acknowledge. He said he's like the greatest guy. Dan, Aspen is like if they dropped, I don't even know if I would say Highland Park. It might be nicer than that, but like Highland Park next to a mountain. Okay. Real high-toned? Oh, yeah. We were very out of place.
Starting point is 00:37:38 But it's like right there. Like you got the mountain, you have this little like downtown, but it's like, you know. No, yeah. So at the top, you have this little like downtown, but it's like, you know. No, yeah, you, so at the top they have this, the lift, and then when you get off the lift, you can literally take your skis off, go downstairs, and you're in the town. Yeah, and you're next to a Louis V store. Yeah. Window shopping was fun. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:58 In Aspen. But then we skied for three days, got a little midweek pass, skied for like 200 bucks, which is great. This is why we go out of season. And I discovered – Eclipse be damned. Yeah. I'm the opposite of Jake.
Starting point is 00:38:13 I'm still trying to haul ass. Yeah. Because I think, Dan, you missed this, but when Jake skied, he basically admitted that he's just scared of getting hurt now. And so he's just not a big skier anymore. In fact, you said you'd never go back. Right now, that still holds. It's going to be tough to move me off that spot. I'm really, really
Starting point is 00:38:33 afraid of getting injured. Man. That's tough. Dan gets up early. Yeah, you have those kids and you soften up and start looking at the whole future. I honestly think I would be like this sans kids. I just don't like getting hurt anymore.
Starting point is 00:38:53 Like it sucks. It takes like way, way longer for me to bounce back. Yeah, but I – I hate it. I still like that feeling. Like if I stub my toe now, I'm like, well, that's it for three months. You're not quitting flag football, though.
Starting point is 00:39:08 I mean, I'll gut through that, but... You even talked about retiring. I have. It's probably coming. Was Blake here when you were talking about that? Yeah. Okay. Yeah, that made me sad. Yeah. I still like that thrill.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Tearing ass. Fresh pal. Yeah, and then maybe you have a few seconds of, what am I going to do? I don't know. I like that still. I downloaded an app to track my speed. Oh, my God. Top speed of the weekend, 54.8.
Starting point is 00:39:41 That feels impressive. It does. I went to the very top of the mountain, and I just went straight down. Just because you wanted to test the app? Yeah, because I had the app running. I had my wife film it. Can we show that video?
Starting point is 00:39:54 You can put that on Instagram. Should I put that on Instagram? We should hire her. We should. That's what should go on the Instagram page. No link, just the video. I'll put that on the Instagram today. Can you
Starting point is 00:40:07 glom it on to the end of this show? Sure. On the video? Yeah, because we got Cakeland here. But yeah, that was cool. Special shout out to a restaurant at our timeshare. Faux20. Okay, that paid
Starting point is 00:40:23 off. Why? That's good. Well, that paid off. Why? That's good. Well, just because a lot of restaurants will put like faux something, F-A-U-X in the title. But, you know, it's Colorado, so Faux 20. I don't want to hear from you, guy who scheduled event on 420 at 420, who made our price to sub $6.90. That wasn't just me.
Starting point is 00:40:50 Oh, wasn't it? You're a big part of this. Oh, yeah? You're saying you were against that. No, I think I was neutral. So all it takes is one person being pro. It takes two to 69, my friend. Yeah, one of you is a six and the other is a nine.
Starting point is 00:41:02 That's true. And then if I have a minute, I'd like to give you my squared away for the spring list. Okay. These are things that you have done? Things I've done in the last two weeks for my house to get my house ready for the summer. Okay? Now, half of this is just going to tell you what I've been doing. The other half is I would love suggestions for upkeep for your house.
Starting point is 00:41:26 The first thing I did a couple weeks ago, get your sprinkler system checked. What does that mean? Make sure all of your heads are running the right way. Do I have to have somebody come out to do that? It's going to cost you $100, $150. Yeah, but it's worth it because you'll save that and more on your water bill this
Starting point is 00:41:41 summer. That's right. Make sure it's spaced the right way. Somehow the one now because of a lawnmower, is now pointing out in the street. The one, there's a big hole there. Yeah, we have to do this too. I had a leak in my front water bed that we got fixed. I had 17 heads replaced through my front and backyard.
Starting point is 00:42:00 This is a scam. All the check is... Because he's got a fairly new house. Don't you? Yeah, in a big backyard. This is a scam. All the check is... Because he's got a fairly new house. Don't you? Yeah, in a big backyard. There's no way you should have 17 heads replaced. How do you have 17 total? Like I said, we have a big yard. But to describe my sprinkler system in one word now, efficient. And that's what you want. Get your garage door lubed and tuned. Now, I hadn't had this done since I moved in, but they say you need to service this about once a year
Starting point is 00:42:32 and maybe every other year. So I got new rollers put in, and I had my system lubricated. So now my garage door is quiet and, again, efficient. Okay. Get your AC unit checked. You need to have your coils cleaned. It needs to be running good for the summer. And, of course, that means changing. Get your AC unit checked. You need to have your coils cleaned. It needs to be running good for the summer.
Starting point is 00:42:48 And of course, that means changing your furnace filter. Of course. I know Jake does that a lot. You're supposed to do that every three months. Maybe it extended out to six. Are you talking about the attic? Both. I do the attic and just the vents.
Starting point is 00:43:03 I'm pretty good about that. Okay. Furnace filter, though. I don't know what that even means. I I'm pretty good about that. Okay. Furnace filter, though. I don't know what that even means. I think that's the same thing. Okay. But yeah, I got the AC unit. It's not Freon.
Starting point is 00:43:12 It's called something else. But I got the coolant levels checked. It's like the dad I never had. Just telling me all these man things I should be doing. You were thought after three shots. Yeah. I just sprayed down the unit, cleaned the coils. I'm now good. The unit is is running great uh another thing get your air ducts cleaned what are you talking about those can
Starting point is 00:43:32 accumulate a lot of dust a lot of pollen a lot of things that affect your overall health now i have not done that since i moved in three years ago got it cleaned out and it looks a lot better. Flush your tankless water heater. I actually have heard that. Yeah, because ours, it started making a ton of noise. Okay. It actually sounded like an F1
Starting point is 00:43:55 pit crew every time I would run the washer. What? You have a tankless, huh? Yeah. I have like the automatic hot water. Always hot? Yeah, tankless water.
Starting point is 00:44:07 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. So you're supposed to do this every year and I had not done this in three. But yes, I have a buddy who's a plumber
Starting point is 00:44:13 and he was like, I asked him, I was like, dude, it literally sounds like I'm firing up a Harley Davidson. Every time we turn on hot water, he's like,
Starting point is 00:44:21 you got to flush that. That's something. Don't you say, well, you got to flush that. That's something. Don't you say, well, you got to flush that. You're exactly what I said. Yeah. The guy that did mine said it was the worst he'd ever seen. So that made me feel good.
Starting point is 00:44:37 And in fact, I have to do it again because now we have sediment in our hot water because of how bad it was. Jake, I think I've heard you talk about this. You need to have your dryer vent cleaned. That is your dryer and actually your washer too. I didn't even know this was there, but if you pop off, this is a top loading washer. There's a thing on the
Starting point is 00:44:55 bottom that you pop off. There's a little pull out rubber spout. I had to get a little bowl and express it from there and it was disgusting. It was black. Hair.
Starting point is 00:45:13 Disgusting, dude. Yeah, for sure hair. And then we like cleaned out the ring. Yeah, it feels like I don't want to. The rubber ring. I don't want to do that. It's gross. Can we just have Blake come over and do all this stuff for us?
Starting point is 00:45:26 Well, see, I don't do any of this, but this is just. Oh, you're just saying you get people to do it. The washer and dryer should be cleaned more often than most people do. Like more than never? More than never. That's correct. And then the final thing that I did when I got back that has made the biggest difference is I got my carpets cleaned. Oh, dude.
Starting point is 00:45:48 C'est magnifique. You can't beat it. No. It feels incredible. Yeah. And in the kids' room, it just gotten like so stale and musty. Because your house is pretty much all carpet. Only the rooms.
Starting point is 00:46:00 The kitchen is not. Only the rooms. Okay. The living area and the kitchen are hardwood. But, yeah. Got the carpets cleaned. And a good DF hooked me up. You want to? CBC Cleaning, yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:15 Okay. Call Harold. He'll take care of you. Call us. Yeah, those are just a few things I've done as spring cleaning to my house. And I'm interested to see what other things I've missed. The carpet cleaning is a big one. We don't have much carpet, but the rug cleaning.
Starting point is 00:46:33 You know, we have a big, you know, normal sized, I guess, big rug in the living room. And it kind of sucks because like three days later, somebody's already spilled milk on it and rubbed applesauce in it and probably pissed on it. See, that's what I, when my kids were your kids' age, I just figured we'll clean this when they're, you know, 18 or whatever. 16 years from now. Yeah. But it's nice every now and then to get it done. I think one thing would be like if you have a house cleaner that comes every two or three weeks,
Starting point is 00:47:08 it's cool. But you need to occasionally call in like an airstrike. And get somebody that you pay $300, $400 to clean your whole house. I feel like every spring, Blake. Right? Is that what you're saying? Yeah. Blake is saying now is the time.
Starting point is 00:47:23 Yeah, now is the time. Yeah, like baseboards, your ceiling fans. You ever look at your ceiling fans? Disgusting. Yeah. Absolutely disgusting. Especially when you flip them in the winter and all the dust on the top then just falls on your bed. Horrible. Wait, when you flip them?
Starting point is 00:47:39 You're supposed to flip the rotation of your ceiling fans based on the weather. Yeah, which is something. I have heard of that, but I don't know which way is the right way to start. Well, I think you run counterclockwise in the summer because that pushes the... Because the way the blades are angled, it'll create cool air.
Starting point is 00:47:56 Either pushing it down or pulling the air up. Well, I can tell you right now in the rent house, they're not all on the same page. Like our living room, you turn the fan on. You turn the fan on, it does nothing as far as cooling it off. So I'm like, do I have to... It's just a little switch on the top.
Starting point is 00:48:16 Didn't see a switch. Didn't look that hard either. Yeah, I don't know how much that does, but yeah but I always flip the fans. So hit up old Blake. Blake's tips. Gutters.
Starting point is 00:48:36 Cleaning your gutters out? I think you should do that twice a year. Really? Yeah. Okay. Well, it depends on your tree, Sitch. I'll add that to my list. What about smoke alarm batteries?
Starting point is 00:48:48 Yeah, that's another good one. I'm down on that right now. Like all these things you're supposed to remember. How are we supposed to remember all these things? You know, for a while, I had a spreadsheet. I just started mine. And then date it? Yeah, like, okay, events change.
Starting point is 00:49:03 Kind of like you're closing at the restaurant. You got to check everything off as you go through it all. Like, okay, events change. Kind of like a closing. You're closing at the restaurant. You got to check everything off as you go through it all. Yeah. Bathrooms. Yeah. But then I had kids and I... Have you done... There's a dishwasher filter similar to the washing machine.
Starting point is 00:49:16 Really? It's gross. Dishwasher filter. Especially the way my wife will put stuff in the dishwasher. So when you do your washing machine, do your dishwasher. Because I basically clean the dishes before I put stuff in the dishwasher. So when you do your washing machine, do your dishwasher. Because I basically clean the dishes before I put them in the dishwasher. Yeah. But she'll just put a bowl of spaghetti still full in there.
Starting point is 00:49:36 What? It's a dishwasher. Yeah. That's how she talks. Spot the lie. Is that your bit? No, but I figured that's something they would say that's uh like you and i have been talking like you'll ask me like hey how's the rent house or whatever i'm like yeah it's not that you
Starting point is 00:49:50 know it's a nice house it's uh it's in a nice neighborhood it's stuff like that the fact the quality of the dishwasher it's crappy it's ass complete complete ass like it holds like half as much and it doesn't really get things clean. It doesn't have a dry function. What? No. So you've got to wait hours for it to just drip dry? The sort of things that bother you and I. Yeah, the little things in life are important.
Starting point is 00:50:16 Yeah. That's what I've found. All right, well, thanks, Blake. Thanks, Michael. And, hey, welcome back, Blake. Hey, thanks, Blake. Thanks, Michael. And, hey, welcome back, Blake. Hey, thanks, guys. From the wonderful world of sports, Radio Sports Scoreboard. So the Mavs playoffs are set next Sunday.
Starting point is 00:50:44 Not 420. Thank you. So we're concerned that 420, we'd have a Mavs game. Yeah, I was quite worried. No real controversy, but they sat everybody these last two games. Yeah, and I mean,
Starting point is 00:51:00 Oklahoma City couldn't. I mean, they probably could have, but they didn't. But they had an opportunity. Had they won one or two of those games, they might have got home court. It's not worth it. But you do wonder, yeah, is it worth it?
Starting point is 00:51:14 And then would the Clippers have played harder if they thought they were going to lose home court? Because they also were sitting people. Although I guess Kawhi was going to sit no matter what, right? Yeah, I mean... He's kind of still questionable. You never know. The whole play-in is weird.
Starting point is 00:51:34 The fact that you have a whole week until the playoffs start is very weird. I'll take it. But I guess, yeah, all the teams are going to be going through the same thing. So, yeah, get some rest. Yeah, and that's wild dude because I think I heard I think it was Nick from Locked On say
Starting point is 00:51:51 this is the first time that there have been in the West 10 teams 10 games over 500. Oh wow. Look at the play-in. It's the Lakers and Pelicans and the Warriors and the Kings. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:09 Like, all four of those are legitimate playoff teams, even though the Kings are in a tailspin, the Warriors are old, the Lakers are old, the Pelicans are young. But that's 47, 49, 46, and 46 wins. That's the play-in. You got Atlanta's like 10 games under.500, aren't they? Yeah. That's a plan. You got Atlanta's like 10 games under 500, aren't they? Yeah, that's a... I don't know.
Starting point is 00:52:30 I'm not a huge fan of the way the NBA operates on conferences, but... It's been decades since I remember the East being the better conference. There was a time... I don't know about better, but I think they were equal a couple years ago when you had,
Starting point is 00:52:45 and you can help me, Blake, but Toronto, Boston, Philadelphia, Milwaukee. Like in one year, we're all really good. Yeah, recently. Like two, three years ago. Okay, that was a pretty small window then. It was very small. Because Dirk's whole career, it was like the West. Yeah, it was like the Cowboys and 49ers.
Starting point is 00:53:05 And I guess Durant, LeBron, all the defections, the people who have gone West, Kyrie. Yeah. Yeah. Harden. Yeah, so they got a week. Yeah. I can't wait. Obviously looking forward to that. Yeah, it's going a week. Yeah. I can't wait.
Starting point is 00:53:26 Obviously looking forward to that. Yeah, it's going to be great, man. I think they're actually Vegas dogs right now, which I was kind of surprised by. They are the five playing a four, but if you just look at the last month and a half. Yeah, the run they've been on. I guess that'll be interesting if momentum indeed exists in any way.
Starting point is 00:53:51 It doesn't. Does it matter? For the playoffs, it doesn't. 16-2 heading in. It matters for betters sometimes, but this is not your, I was going to say your dad's Clippers. Your dad's Clippers were owned by a racist slumlord. But
Starting point is 00:54:07 they don't have what they had a couple years ago in those two playoff matchups. The bubble and then the year after. They don't have that anymore. They don't have that. Yeah, and they got Westbrook. Westbrook's been giving them good minutes. Yeah, just think about if you would have ever thought
Starting point is 00:54:29 those four would be on a team together Kawhi, Paul George, James Harden and Westbrook yeah yeah they don't have the two villains that we hated from a few years ago Montrezl Harrell and Markeith Morris no and they don't have Batum
Starting point is 00:54:43 who would check the hell out of Brunson or Luka. Luka would kind of body him. I liked – Iztok had a tweet, said, I appreciate the Mavs doing the final push for Luka's MVP campaign. By not playing. That's supercharging his on-off stats. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:04 Because they just got rolled yesterday, and they got beat Friday, was it? Friday wasn't bad. Yesterday, I barely paid attention. That is a Luka – you know, that's another storyline. Yeah. Do you find that during the playoffs, the MVP? Yeah. Because Dirk got his before...
Starting point is 00:55:25 Being eliminated. Or right after he was eliminated. I think it'll be this week. Okay. Yeah. I think. Didn't they do Dirk's banner? The series that we lost?
Starting point is 00:55:40 Oh, no, that... I'm talking about when he won the MVP. Yeah, that was the series that he lost. Yeah. Against Golden State, right, that. I'm talking about when he won the MVP. Yeah, that was the series that he lost. Yeah. But that was the... Against Golden State, right? Yes. Yes.
Starting point is 00:55:51 2007? Donnie Nelson. When will we find out game time? I don't know. Let's look at Sunday right now and see if they've already decided any of them. I don't think they have. But there'll be the late game.
Starting point is 00:56:05 You would think, because it's LA. Because the Thunder are hosting, the Bucks are hosting, and the Celtics are hosting. They'll be the late game. Okay. Yeah. Golf? Yeah. I mean, I don't know. I watched a decent amount of it. It's just all in the background.
Starting point is 00:56:24 You know? Dan, you didn't win your big money. I don't think I won. See, now Tiger had a lot of – Started out super positive. He had the most points of anyone, though, as I looked at the end. No, that's not how that works, though. You want to go down.
Starting point is 00:56:38 He was like plus 16 points. Everybody else was like minus stuff. No, because you're thinking of Stableford scoring. Oh, okay. Or something. He did birdie one on Thursday. He made the cut. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:53 He made the cut, and I think that's a record, right? 24 straight? Yeah. Master's record? I called Dan on Friday afternoon. He was like, he's in it. He's in it. So remind me, did you bet on him to win?
Starting point is 00:57:06 Oh, yeah. To win the whole tournament? What do you think? It was like plus, what was it? I would have bought this house had I won. It was a stupid number. You would have won 9,400, right? Was that it?
Starting point is 00:57:20 Yeah, it was plus 9,400. I think that's about what this place is worth. Yeah, 9,400. Yeah, 9,400, OBO. Yeah. Take it 9,400. Yeah, 9,400, OBO. Yeah. Take it or leave it. It was really hard to watch him on the weekend. Look, man, just that he's out there and he's healthy.
Starting point is 00:57:35 I know. He's not healthy, but. Oh, you know. Just that he gets to spend some time with his son. Okay. All right. They made a big deal out of that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:47 Well, the big thing that came from Tiger is just who he played with on Sunday. He played with some amateur kid. Yeah. Have you seen this guy? Neil? Neil Shipley? Yeah. Is it the Ohio State or something?
Starting point is 00:58:00 Yeah. Yeah. Because he's kind of a weird guy. He does seem weird. And I don't know what this is from, but his picture is all over social media because he's looking weirdly offset. It's from Butler's Cabin. So yeah, I don't know what he's looking at, but he was asked in his, I don't know, postgame, whatever you call it, about playing with Tiger. And this was kind of an awkward moment.
Starting point is 00:58:31 I left the first question in because he's just asked about playing with Tiger, which is cool. And then I think Dan will like that Tiger's still somewhat in it competitively. But then there was a really strange moment after that. Neil, when Tiger was struggling today, did you find yourself rooting for him, and did you at all wish that you caught him at his best in his prime? I don't think anyone wants to catch Tiger at his best. No one's going to win if he's playing his best, but certainly rooting for him and rooting for good golf shots. He's awesome.
Starting point is 00:59:05 So wishing him nothing but the best. You know, I really appreciate all the work that he does to keep his body ready to come out here. He told me that he woke up at like 345 this morning just to get ready for the day, which is I got about three hours more sleep than him by that. So he's really grinding and making a big commitment to be out here for everyone. So it's been awesome to see the patrons, you know, really appreciative of him and really enjoy having him out here. Okay. Up at 345, he still got it in him, Dan. He could win. So before we get to the second part, I wanted to say,
Starting point is 00:59:39 I thought it was really silly how crazy people went over that idea. He teed off at 8.45. Like, what time do you think an NFL player who plays at noon gets up? It's before 7. And if it's later, it's not by much. Getting up five hours before you have to be on the tee, that's just normal. Why are you taking this from us?
Starting point is 01:00:11 I just think it's silly that, like, this kid's like, five hours before. Crazy. Okay, well, I mean, what time? I don't know. It just, I saw a lot of people, and even, like, there's some golf guy from CBS that I think the Hardline's had on before, and it was his tweet that got me mad. He was like, dude, still got it. Incredible
Starting point is 01:00:29 fire. That's right, man. I'm like, what time do you think they get up? I'm with you. He actually doesn't still got it because he has to wake up to have that many hours. He had to move his body. That's what he says. It takes him that long. So an hour to get to the bathroom.
Starting point is 01:00:48 Alright, then second part. I saw on one fairway, on a fairway, he wrote something and handed you a note. What was that about? No, he didn't. I thought he wrote something and handed you a piece of paper. No, that didn't. Oh, I thought he wrote something and handed you a piece of paper.
Starting point is 01:01:05 No, no, that didn't happen. Okay, okay. Thank you for your time. Good luck. Congratulations on a win. What a weird moment. Super weird. And I haven't been able to figure out if there's video of this.
Starting point is 01:01:18 I don't think there was. You know, because if it's not captured by a broadcast camera, it's not captured. Yeah. Nobody has phones. Ah, that's right. Yeah. Yeah. Anywhere else it would be.
Starting point is 01:01:27 Yeah, for sure. But it was weird. Like, he looked at one of the officials and was kind of like, what are they asking me about? Like, he looked off camera to one of the green jackets. He was like, that didn't happen. He was like, what is, he's like, slides over, he's like, Israel's gonna retaliate.
Starting point is 01:01:50 Wasn't there something a while back where Tiger handed like some kind of joking, or, oh, he handed a tampon to somebody,
Starting point is 01:01:58 right? Yes, because he outdrove him. Yeah. So he definitely handed him something. Yeah. Like some little joke or something.
Starting point is 01:02:05 How did Tiger have a tampon on him? For bits. For bits. He planned the joke. Because I'm trying to rehab my image. That's an hour of his morning before the tee time is planning jokes. Yeah. He's finding tampons.
Starting point is 01:02:19 Yeah. It is funny. I saw for sure Brooks and one other golfer. There were a video of them. This is the new wave now where they walk up to their caddy. It wasn't like mid-round. It was during warm-ups or whatever, practice shots. And they're just like, hit me.
Starting point is 01:02:39 And the caddy knows to go right for the Zins. So Zin is an acceptable chewing tobacco basically you um for some reason cannot get off this idea of chewing tobacco well yeah even though i've tried to explain it to you a thousand times but it's it's nicotine and that's really why people do chewing tobacco right i think some people actually do like yes for sure but i think some people do like tobacco, right? I think some people actually do like... Yes, for sure. But I think some people do like the flavor of tobacco. Okay.
Starting point is 01:03:09 I don't mind it. The taste of it. Yeah. I hate it. But I think some people do like it. I just think it's certainly dirty to have brown spit everywhere. Zin is just a...
Starting point is 01:03:22 It's like a piece of gum. Do you spit? You don't have to. Okay. Yeah. Did you see the, the Bryson controversy? Controversy?
Starting point is 01:03:32 Mm-mm. So, it was a big story Thursday going into Friday whenever he was killing it, but he had a new set of 3D printed irons in his bag.
Starting point is 01:03:43 Oh, okay. I did see something like that. That were approved by USGA on Tuesday. Yeah, that week. Yeah. So this got people all, you know, hot and bothered over the rules. But as much as I think that guy's kind of a tool,
Starting point is 01:04:01 that's awesome. That he's never really used them anywhere? No, I just mean you put in your time, your money, your R&D. You tested them out. If everybody else is like, I'm just going to play with the clubs I had, that's your fault. It's not football where everybody has to play
Starting point is 01:04:17 with the Duke. You get to choose your clubs. And your ball, for that matter. Tiger used to do this all the time. I'm still confused by 3D printing. Yeah, I am too. What do you mean?
Starting point is 01:04:34 Do you have a club that you print? You just make a copy of it? No. Okay. It's like a CAD file, right? Does Michael, Michael, you have any, no? Anybody? Caroline? Just how you get something 3D,
Starting point is 01:04:52 like, I remember people were making 3D printed guns. Oh yeah, that's big. It's like, oh, okay. Yeah, I understand that. I mean, it's just, it's essentially... I'm just more of a 2D guy. Yeah. I always have been.
Starting point is 01:05:08 I was going to go 4 for you. Yeah, 2D. Two dimensions. We should go watch one. Two dimensions are my favorite. So you can see what it looks like. You've never seen one? My favorite way to get something printed is 2D. 2D, yeah. Dan here for two-dimensional printing. Yeah. No, I'd like to go see it.
Starting point is 01:05:24 Yeah, I mean, it's insane. I haven't seen a gun or a golf club, but I've seen small models of houses. Okay, I'd love to see that, yeah. You just put the file, you design it on the computer, on the computer, and then it just basically
Starting point is 01:05:42 fabricates it for you. What can computers not do? That's a great question. What else did I have golf-wise? It's like it's your calculator. Yeah, it's crazy. This is one that I found kind of by accident the other day, and I don't even know these people's names,
Starting point is 01:06:05 but the way the Masters works, confusingly to me still, is it doesn't start until 2 on CBS and then 1 on Sunday. I ask this question every year. Somehow their thing is like limiting access makes it more golden once you get it. Exclusive and scarcity. I mean, that's their whole bit totally. And they don't care about money. They don't care about whatever.
Starting point is 01:06:36 They want you to go to their app. Every shot's on their app. The app is great. The app is actually great. That the Masters owns itself? The Masters app. Yeah. It's the best sports app out there.
Starting point is 01:06:46 I mean, they do care about money because they make more of it than anyone. Yeah, but like the fact that they don't sell their merch anywhere but there. Yeah. If you want to watch it, go to the Masters app. But in the morning, they run something called Live from the Masters on Golf Channel. And they don't really show any live shots, ironically. But I was looking for a piece of audio and then randomly heard this.
Starting point is 01:07:14 Just because I have, you know, I just have Live from the Masters on Saturday morning at 9.30. Sure. Well, on top of the fact, I mean, in talking to Bryson about the physical changes, like he had to train to train. Like he had to put in the time to get the muscles. Excuse me.
Starting point is 01:07:34 To get. Yeah, Bryson DeChambeau continuing to be as warm of it as he goes. Sorry about that. The entire bag got past the driver. Okay, so. What are they laughing at? Well, this guy gets, he has a very Jimmy Christopher, only on Inside Edition. Oh, okay. But I just randomly heard this guy, he gets super choked up, and then he starts kind of trying to laugh through it.
Starting point is 01:07:57 Well, on top of the fact, I mean, in talking to Bryson about the physical changes, like, he had to train to train. Like, he had to put in the time. You can hear it right there right yeah he had to put in the time to get the muscles excuse me to get yeah bryson the shamba continuing I thought that was great. What's the deal with... So, Scheffler...
Starting point is 01:08:34 I thought his wife was going to be in labor because it was a big thing like Saturday or Friday, right? I think she's like two weeks out. Yeah, I think she's like three weeks. But she wasn't there and that's like two weeks out. Yeah, I think she's like three weeks. Yeah. But she wasn't there, and that's... Oh, okay. Because they were...
Starting point is 01:08:48 I thought they were alleging that they're having this baby Sunday no matter what. They were for the drama because they got the quote they wanted. Yeah, that he's like, I'll leave no matter what. He was leading going into Sunday. Okay, so that might have been a lie. We'll never really know. Yeah, I suppose, but I mean... If I was her, I'm calling the bluff.
Starting point is 01:09:10 I'm inducing labor. Unbeknownst to him. Yeah, let's just see. We got enough money, right? You're professing your love to me. No, we have enough money that... You don't have to win. If you don't win this, life will go on and blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 01:09:25 Yeah. Because I was kind of thinking that was a big storyline. I didn't realize it was three weeks out. I thought she was right up against it.
Starting point is 01:09:35 Well, the three weeks is kind of up against it. It's pretty up against it. Yeah. Dan's anti-woman and anti-pregnancy. No, I just used to, well, I'm anti-women who are pregnant.
Starting point is 01:09:47 That's for sure. Who wants that? Not even them. Yeah, I just remember the old days if that was a big sports talk thing with Phil versus Tiger because Phil said he would leave if his wife...
Starting point is 01:10:02 Yeah, and we've done this multiple times. I was like, that sucks. That, and we've done this multiple times. Had a baby. I was like, that sucks. That was before I had kids, I think. Of course. Because at the time, Tiger would never do that. So two things about that. The first one is we've done this before,
Starting point is 01:10:19 and every time I bring up, I think Phil bailed on a U.S. Open for his daughter's graduation. He did, and I think it was high school. It was high school, yeah. My God, I was looking for everything I could to get out of that. Yeah. And just tell my daughter, look, we had to record a podcast. Sorry, hon, I'm in the U.S. Open. You know, yeah, there's no way.
Starting point is 01:10:39 That was one of the worst times ever. And the second thing is, and I'm guilty of this myself, we probably all are, but it's so funny, I even heard Scotty say it, like, you only get to have your first kid once, that your second kid, you're like, I don't know, fucking leave it in a dumpster?
Starting point is 01:10:56 I'll pick it up. Right, it'll be fine. Call me when it's time. It shouldn't be any less special. It's still the creation of life. Boy, no, that's when America's time. It shouldn't be any less special. It's still the creation of life. Boy, no, that's when America was great. If you want to make it great again. You go smoke a cigar in the waiting room.
Starting point is 01:11:12 Yeah, no, guys would be asked to golf. Like, go golfing because you have no room in here. Take your mind off this, yeah. No, I mean, I think it's cool to be there. It's just, it's crazy how we collectively are like, your second kid, I mean. Right. It's like your second marriage. Like, nobody's crazy how we collectively are like, your second kid, I mean, it's like your second marriage. Nobody's coming to that wedding. But the second kid does get a lot of good things
Starting point is 01:11:31 because you mess up a lot of things at that first kid. The best thing they get is that they have parents who have learned how to parent. They get that a little bit. Now they got to wear old clothes. You know what, though? Our kids, that was Eden always just wore the same
Starting point is 01:11:47 exact things. Well, so you had a different situation because they were closer in age and they were both female. They're both identified as female. I think there needs to be like a documentary made. Almost like a, I don't know what the traveling
Starting point is 01:12:03 pants movie is about. Sisterhood. But like. Sounds like something about ladies. The amount of like, the trade of kid clothes is insane. No, I think Ava wore a lot
Starting point is 01:12:19 of things that belonged to somebody else. And then we give it to somebody else. Like I have so much of KJ's kids clothes. But at least all the photos of our kids, you will see the exact same thing at the exact same age that they're wearing. And I think kid number two has a bit of a problem with that.
Starting point is 01:12:37 But I don't really care. I'm going to play this real quick. I didn't pull it. Let's see. By the way, this is Zach Johnson on Saturday. Misses a putt. That tap in for triple bogey at the 12th. What did he say?
Starting point is 01:13:05 F off? I'll try it again. Yeah, triple bogey. Tap in for triple bogey at the 12th. We've all been there. Who's he saying it to? The crowd.
Starting point is 01:13:19 The crowd. A little sarcastic cheer for a triple bogey. Oh, fuck. Yeah, I love him. I could not get a clean copy of this because it was Thursday. Didn't Jordan Spieth have a real terrible haul, too? Yes. That was early, though, wasn't it?
Starting point is 01:13:37 Well, yeah, he didn't make the cut. Yeah, I think it was Friday. He didn't have what Tiger had. This is, well, let's see here. He would have gotten up earlier. That's right. He's had to wake up. Rolled out of bed.
Starting point is 01:13:49 What time do you fire out of bed? Hold on. Tiger had a really good weekend for memes. He did. The tree is awesome. Yeah, Dan, have you seen him handshaking a tree? Yeah. It's Vern Lundquist.
Starting point is 01:14:03 It still looks hilarious. Yeah, Vern's hiding behind the tree. Yeah. It's Vern Lundquist. It still looks hilarious. Yeah. Vern's hiding behind the tree. And then the other one is he's just prototypical dad with Charlie as Charlie's trying
Starting point is 01:14:10 to teach him how to swing a golf club. Do you guys remember this? Tigers rehabbed that image. He really has.
Starting point is 01:14:18 One million. All you have to do is get in a life-threatening car accident. You know what's weird? I was surprised to see him on that ad this weekend. It's like golfballs.com.
Starting point is 01:14:31 Really? Yeah, it's like a Bridgestone thing. And you know how it is. Just like your wife pointing out the third body problem doctor is too hot. Immediately, my wife sees Tiger and she goes, too much filler. I've noticed that third body problem thing is we're not the only ones saying that. But I mean, Tiger's face does look, and I was like, well, the thing is.
Starting point is 01:14:57 That he's got Botox and stuff? Big time. But it's like. He's puffy. You learned about him when he was 20. It's like, I'm like, he's puffy. You learned about him when he was 20. So you've watched him, like, that's an unfair, you know, judgment to make.
Starting point is 01:15:15 Like, he's old, and he can't, I've heard him say that he can't really even work out. Like, his back and his knees are so jacked up that it's very hard for him to stay in normal physical shape. You guys remember this? Third and nine. Pump fake. Eli's throwing it down the field. Is there a flag? No, there isn't. Yeah, I didn't see much there either.
Starting point is 01:15:36 Giant bitch. Bitch had everyone with their arms up in the air as Rushel. Rushel. Okay, so here's one from... When Jim Nance said giant bitch. Yeah. He knows it. He also knows there's a ticklish little bitch coming up.
Starting point is 01:15:56 DeChambeau. He didn't correct himself on that one. He did not. I don't think he knew he... A ticklish little bitch. Yeah. It's coming up. He knows not. I don't think he knew. A ticklish little bitch. It's coming up. He knows it. He also knows there's a ticklish little bitch coming up.
Starting point is 01:16:13 That's a bitch of a hole. I can honestly say I've never described somebody as a ticklish little bitch. Until now. Yeah, that's all I'm going to play for now. But yeah. DeChambeau. That's good stuff.
Starting point is 01:16:42 I'm here to announce that we're making an association and what I certainly would tell you I believe is a huge, huge look-see into the future of how things are going to be in this country, especially in transactions, currency, in that particular area. See, how you monetize and how you do that is, what you do is, you know, I apologize. I apologize. I'm kind of nervous, you know. Blockchain.com, named after the very essence of what it is to begin with? Well, you know, it can be an NFT of anything.
Starting point is 01:17:33 You know, like I said, it can be whatever you like. Like, for example, it can be memorabilia. You know, you can tie memorabilia to NFTs. I'm just giving you small examples of, you know, how big this could be, you know, and yeah. Am I going to buy my cryptocurrency through blockchain? Come, you bet I am. And I want to encourage millions and millions of people to do the same thing. And, you know, yeah, you know, like I said, you know, I'm kind of nervous. I feel like I'm put on the spot.
Starting point is 01:18:14 You're listening to The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone. I have to say this, Caroline.
Starting point is 01:18:25 Do your bit. What's my bit? Is this my bit? Oh, a smooth fade. I appreciate that. I have to say this to Caroline as puppet, no puppet. Oh, a smooth fade. No puppet. I appreciate that. I have to say this to Caroline as well. Beautiful house.
Starting point is 01:18:49 Oh, God. But clean. Clean. I can't find it. I'm looking for a speck of dust. I don't think they have pets. I wore my white gloves. You don't have pets, do you? No pets.
Starting point is 01:19:01 Hardcore no pets. You're anti-pet? We are both anti-pet. Oh, okay. Kids complain about that? Oh, yes. That's a bold stance to take. And then once you know.
Starting point is 01:19:11 You're like, hey, when you're old enough and you own your own house. They are dog-loving little girls. Okay. It's odd that you've never given in on that. No. You must really hate pets. I don't like to say the word hate in case anyone's listening, but I strongly dislike Because society looks down upon people if you say I'm not a dog person.
Starting point is 01:19:32 My sister and I have this conversation. My brother-in-law actually this weekend said to us, y'all are so perfect for each other. How did two people like you find each other? A lot of times you have to say you have allergies. Yes. Yeah. My wife lied about that. Whether it of times you have to say you have allergies. Yes. Yeah. My wife lied about that. Whether it's being checked or not.
Starting point is 01:19:49 Yeah. Yeah. But yeah, it's a matter. And then you're like, well, these dogs don't shed. You can't, you're allergic. The toy poodle is great. And no cats either. How's, you know, can't believe you turned to a cat person.
Starting point is 01:20:03 I'm a full onon cat person now. I don't want just any rat off the street type cat. Yeah. Give me a luxury cat. Gotta be a four figs. Gotta be a four figs cat. I'm in. I'm 100% in.
Starting point is 01:20:18 So before we get to the news, I did want to play you this audio that I had from last week that we never got to. And maybe Caroline being here is a good thing. Because the only reason I found out about this is because of a lady. The lady in my house who lives rent free.
Starting point is 01:20:36 It is my wife. And this is the only time I will ever see anything All she watches I think is the Today Show. She loves the Today Show. Today Show? Are you in? I'm a P1.
Starting point is 01:20:53 So you don't do the Today Show? No. Okay, so you're not aware of this. But I'm like, this is what people millions of people are watching this. Is this the one that Strahan is on? No.
Starting point is 01:21:07 No? NBC. You knew, so obviously something. It's Hoda and... Jenna. Hoda and Jenna do The Final Hour, I believe. Jenna Bush? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:21:17 Huh. She was just the best qualified for anyone in America. Right. So was he. I can't remember her little buddy's name. Oh, we'll hear it. Thank you, Michael. That was better than I got for that.
Starting point is 01:21:30 This is last week. He plugs on. This is last Tuesday, actually, how they opened the Today Show. Hi, everybody. Happy Tuesday. We're still kind of glowing after that breathtaking eclipse. We are. It's a special moment, and it united the country.
Starting point is 01:21:46 It's April 9th. This is today. It's a special moment. First of all, she sounds like she had a late night. I know what that sounds like, and it sounds like that. Yeah, I like her. Oh, I like her. Anyway, we go now to...
Starting point is 01:22:06 So, special moment that united the country. That's incredible. But that wasn't the only thing that happened yesterday. So we're going to talk a little bit about that. Well, good morning. So good to see you. We're so happy you're joining us on this Tuesday morning. Can you imagine waking up and being over there at UConn? Oh my gosh. It is going to be two in a row, 75-60 over Purdue,
Starting point is 01:22:31 UConn, much like the moon, blocking the sun, total eclipse of the other team. I had to kind of do a segue, right? And Coach Hurley will join us in just a little bit. He is a trip. It'll be fun to talk to him. But we are going to start with what everybody is still talking about, that amazing solar eclipse. Look, it was awesome. This is how it played out. What a mess. I know you love news people talking sports that they have no idea about.
Starting point is 01:23:01 Oh, yeah. Using sports analogies, yeah. Yeah. And then if we can mix that in as well. Yeah, here. Do you want a quick, can I play a quick Hoda? You can't block the sun? This is Hoda from the Sugar Bowl a couple years ago when Texas played Georgia.
Starting point is 01:23:17 Things got a little heated during a meeting of the mascots ahead of Tuesday's Sugar Bowl game in New Orleans. At a pregame photo op, the Texas Longhorns mascot, Beefy, suddenly broke through some barriers and charged... Beefy. Old Beefy. It should be called that. Yeah, you're right. Bevo doesn't make any sense.
Starting point is 01:23:39 No, Beefy would be better. It is Beefy's setup. Hold on, real quick. It's Walking Beef. The way that she started was, can you imagine waking up over at UConn? Can you imagine that? She's like, oh, well, yeah, they won. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:23:53 And especially, they can imagine. They win them. This is a very common thing over at UConn, actually. Relate the stats. And then when they give the score, it's just so precise. 75- 60. Right. Tiger had 16 points.
Starting point is 01:24:10 Okay. We just continue to talk about the eclipse. It's the moment that left millions of Americans in total awe. Look at this. Whoa. Is this exciting? Yes, this is so incredible. It's amazing. Look at this! Whoa! Yeah! Is this exciting? Yes, this is so incredible!
Starting point is 01:24:29 It's amazing! From Texas to Maine, a once-in-a-lifetime experience and a collective pause to take in one of nature's greatest phenomena. You know, Tom, you and I cover a lot of difficult things to report sometimes, but this is magical. No kid is dead here. I think it's a moment in which all of us feel connected to each other as members of the human family, but also to the galaxy. Okay.
Starting point is 01:25:00 The whole galaxy. This is bringing the galaxy together. Sure. And then, yeah, we'll just continue to talk about the true meaning of eclipse you know what else was nice we are so divided in this country there was no talk of politics yesterday no social wars this was all of us coming together and taking in this collective moment for all of us and living our humanity. It was phenomenal. Jeez. Living our humanity.
Starting point is 01:25:28 Yes. It's so ribby. All of us together. Living your humanity. Living our humanity. Just, this is what we need. Yeah. This, it equips Ted Lasso.
Starting point is 01:25:44 You're good to go. But let's finish our thought there, Guy. For all of us and living our humanity. It was phenomenal. By the way, we're not going to have another total eclipse in this country until 2044. It's coming back to Indianapolis in 2153. So I've already booked my hotel room because I know you guys are going to be wanting me here in 2053. Yeah, and you told us what your ticket costs to get out there, so it better get early.
Starting point is 01:26:08 Tom, was it— I just love banter, the small talk. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, because they're all—the hosts who each make, what, $14 million a year, $18 million a year, whatever. Somehow, though, I mean, the big man does it. Somehow has to relate to everybody to, hey, we are just like you. Yeah. We're just like all of you.
Starting point is 01:26:36 And so they try to have their little banter like they worry about the ticket cost. That guy wasn't worried about his ticket cost. No, because GE Universal paid for it or whatever they're owned by. But yeah. Yes. We also saw the ball game last night. We speak to the heartland. That's what they have to do. Right. Yeah. It's very annoying. I think I've told you before, even though I think you have found the one that Nate Berthelsen is not on, which is CBS, and Michael Strahan is not on. But it's so weird to me. I feel like we could probably do a montage of this.
Starting point is 01:27:11 Like if you watch those shows, they will go. You think local news has weird transitions. They'll go to Nate Berthelsen being like, this situation in the Middle East is dire. And then he's like, and now the star of High School Musical. And then after that, it's like a tostada recipe. Where they have like some celebrity chef out there
Starting point is 01:27:34 and they're like, I prefer to put this on the shrimp. So they prove that you can be all things to all people. See, I think this is why my wife watches it. Because she feels like I am aware of the entire world. That makes sense. It's Joel McHale's The Soup. For world.
Starting point is 01:27:51 For world, yes. She's kind of aware that Israel's got some stuff going on. Ukraine. Yeah. You know, she could just give you surface level on everything. Not that I'm getting in deep on just anything in the world. But also, here's a fun tomatillo salsa recipe. Right.
Starting point is 01:28:09 And you're like, okay. Got it all. She also wants to leave me for Willie Geist. I think that's his name. Yeah, well, we talked about this the other day, right? Yeah, she loves Willie Geist, man. Who's the other one? Steve Zahn?
Starting point is 01:28:24 I can never live up to Willie Geist. Yes, she loves Willie Geist, man. Who's the other one? Steve Zahn? I can never live up to Willie Geist. Yes, she loves Steve Zahn. Boy, I feel like Willie Geist is within your... That guy's not... I'm not looking at Steve Zahn thinking that's a big... I don't know. There's something dangerous about Steve Zahn. Really?
Starting point is 01:28:40 You know what I mean? Would you agree? Yes. Willie Geist, I mean. He's a missionary guy. He's him. He definitely looks like a missionary guy. Maybe that's why she's into him.
Starting point is 01:28:55 My sports audio. I'm telling her to put on those leg braces for me. Oh, dear. I thought you were a mouth braces guy. My sports audio. Caroline convinced me to change. Don't let us shame you out of your kink. No, I'm into leg braces now.
Starting point is 01:29:08 Let me hear from you, ladies. I do not want to be remembered this way. Let me hear from you, ladies. Why not both? If you're limping around. And in fact, it probably usually is both. If you think about it. The big whole headgear thing.
Starting point is 01:29:24 People's court. So you may have seen this video and heard this audio on Twitter, Instagram. Boban missing a free throw towards the end of a meaningless game last night.
Starting point is 01:29:41 I went and found the longer cut. Was it the Clippers? It was the Clippers, yeah. The Clippers were resting everybody. The Rockets are up nine at this point. I think it's 104-95 with 444 to play, but neither team had anything to play for. Beaubon's at the line.
Starting point is 01:29:57 He had missed the first one. And if you think back to an open that we had last week when Isaiah Thomas signed, we played the he said he just wanted a Frosty. Because there are giveaways at the end of every NBA game. The Mavericks have it for chicken. They used to do it for Jack in the Box tacos, but I believe they now do it for chicken.
Starting point is 01:30:22 Missed free throws, end of a game, there's a giveaway. It's got to be – oh, okay. Missed two. So if you missed two in a row or something like that? Yeah, well, you have to miss both of them in the same trip. Okay, so within a certain time period on the clock. Yeah, it's usually like under five. Okay.
Starting point is 01:30:38 And everybody knows it every game. People go insane. Especially like the years that I was doing the Mavs games, they were not winning a lot. So that was the only thing you had to look forward to? And people would stick around for the Chick-fil-A thing. Okay. In our case, it was Chick-fil-A.
Starting point is 01:30:53 So we'll just take it to the – this is the Clippers broadcast. Bob Marjanovic right back at the line. He and Tobias Harris. It was built up that they were – Tobias Harris on the Clippers. Or was. Is now? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:31:08 He's back there, right? Am I? Yes. 6%. Good. and Toby show that was a riot, but they were legit. It wasn't one of those, we're teammates and we're seen together, this would be fun. Like you've seen them on Cheez-It commercials and all sorts of stuff.
Starting point is 01:31:34 Goldfish, that's what it is. Bobby and Toby, good name though. It is a good name. They are actually friends from their time in L.A. And like when the Mavs play the 76ers, they'll do big bro hugs and stuff. In the bubble, they were popular. The bubble, for sure. We're teammates and stuff. In the bubble, they were popular. In the bubble, for sure. We're teammates and we're seen together. This will be fun.
Starting point is 01:31:48 And Tobias Harris, one of the extremely nice gentlemen in the league as well. The ultimate home court advantage is ready to rise. Now is your chance to be among the most energetic Clipper fans on the planet. Join us in the wall at clippers.com forward slash the wall. Boban talking to the crowd. He missed two free throws in a row. So at this point, Boban, after missing the first one, the crowd is on their feet.
Starting point is 01:32:13 The remaining 5,000 people. All right. And Boban points up at the crowd and says, I got you. Two free throws in a row. And he told them, he told them, I'm making this. That's what he said. I think he said he might have missed it so he could get the free bird.
Starting point is 01:32:32 I told you he's the nicest guy in the league. Boston for three. It's gone. We got a ball game here. So, yeah, I don't know if it was Plumlee or somebody. Just immediately drills a corner three and, like, brings it back. The game was definitely not over. Like, after that three, it's a six-point game, you know.
Starting point is 01:32:57 Boban, man. It's gone. We got a ball game here. Four and a half to play in the game. How about that? Three chicken and a three ball. It doesn't get any better. It doesn't. You're gonna have to play in the game It doesn't get any better to bring this game with it to does it Holiday the runner
Starting point is 01:33:22 We don't go to dice the crowd is alive. The Clippers are energized. Here we go In the corner probably He puts up a three. Oh, it's a wedgie. Wow. The game. I left that in there for you because, yeah, Plumlee three from the corner right in the corner pocket. That's awesome. You hear the guy, oh, it's a wedgie.
Starting point is 01:33:43 Moon in the corner to Plumlee. He puts up a three. Oh, it's a wedgie. Moon in the corner to Plumlee. He puts up a three. Oh, it's a wedgie. Wow. Very disgusting. The wedgie has. Without an afternoon wedgie. Oh, man.
Starting point is 01:34:00 That's been big since Ian Eagle or whatever. Ian Eagle. Yeah. Those are two guys trying to get through game 82. Dude, and they're loving it, though. Oh, my God. This is an afternoon game against the Rockets. Yeah, this sounds like the best time ever. With nothing on the line.
Starting point is 01:34:11 It looked good until it didn't. Until it didn't. And Boban. Yes. You're welcome. You're welcome. Look at this, by the way. Okay, so now what we have, first they show a replay of Boban looking at the crowd going, you're welcome.
Starting point is 01:34:32 But now because of the wedgie, we have a jump ball at center court between Boban and one of the Clippers' guards. Okay. And they're like, look at this now. What a mismatch. Yeah. You're welcome. Look at this,. What a mismatch. Yeah. You're welcome. Look at this, by the way. I like this.
Starting point is 01:34:49 You can tell there's something on the line. Xavier Moore. He won the dip. Oh, my goodness. 105-100. Here comes Plumlee the other way. Into the paint. Rises.
Starting point is 01:35:03 Not there. Rebound goes to Houston. How about that? There might not be anything on the line, but we've got drama here in downtown Los Angeles. That's awesome. So in a matter of two minutes, they had Boban missing free throws for chicken,
Starting point is 01:35:20 a wedgie, and Boban getting outjumped by someone a foot shorter than him. How can you believe this? It's like that and the Wimbinyama three-minute stretch against Denver the other night. That was insane. The most exciting three minutes. 15 points. 17 points in three minutes of game clock.
Starting point is 01:35:41 And they beat Denver. Oh, I know. By one. That was a momentous occurrence. How And they beat Denver. Oh, I know. By one. That was a momentous occurrence. How would they beat Denver? Him. Well, how come they have 20 wins all year? The team is absolute garbage.
Starting point is 01:35:56 He's missed some time. But trust me. And so what do we got? OKC is one. Denver's the three seed? Yeah. No, Denver actually ended up two. Milwaukee, not Milwaukee.
Starting point is 01:36:10 Minnesota's three. Oh, okay. Yeah. How are Luka's MVP thought? No chance. I'm sorry, bud. No chance? No.
Starting point is 01:36:23 I'm losing Tiger and Luka? Yeah, the odds are like at plus 1,200 now. That's not good. For Luka? Yeah. You want to buy back in? It's good value. It is.
Starting point is 01:36:35 They usually let you buy out. Like I bought out of my Micah bet early enough to get half my money back. But this is probably a bit late. What's the point of, yeah, I mean, don't cash out now. Nah. Gotta just hope. Hope and pray. That's really my answer to most things.
Starting point is 01:36:56 News? Sure. Here's Jay with the dumb self-impedance. News? You good, Caroline? Is that all right? All right. News? You in, Caroline? Is that alright?
Starting point is 01:37:12 So, the big man. Trump himself was at a rally this weekend. And he decided that he would because he was in – where was he specifically? I searched it. It was some real weird – let me see if I can find – some city in Pennsylvania. Yeah, it was in Pennsylvania. But he decided – and you know what? I was thinking about this this weekend too, watching the Masters.
Starting point is 01:37:43 At some point this week, we'll have Ted Emmerich on who was there and was sending me updates throughout the weekend I think one of the more unstable looks is full suit and tie with baseball cap this is a really weird look
Starting point is 01:37:58 all the Masters guys have it they may not have tie but they have the green jacket and then they have a Masters cap have it. They may not have tie, but they have the green jacket, and then they have a Masters cap on. It's almost like, I would say it's like the reverse. You have your socks on, but you're naked.
Starting point is 01:38:14 Because that's also like, completely unstable. Yeah, you don't like wardrobe cross-pollination. I don't. But you've done the socks naked thing, right? I avoid it if I can. I mean, sometimes. Take your socks off.
Starting point is 01:38:29 That's so easy. It's cold. But you already took everything else out. The floor is cold, though. Let's see. Shanklesville or Schneckville. That's probably it. Schneckville.
Starting point is 01:38:44 Yep. I think you got it. Yeah, Schneckville. That's probably it. Schneckville. Yep. I think you got it. Yeah, Schneckville. So this audio went a little bit viral because this is the most I've ever heard him sound like Shane Gillis' impression of him. Do you have mine? What? It's labeled super long.
Starting point is 01:39:02 Super long. Okay. Let's see. I have it pulled up if you want long. Okay. Let's see. I have it pulled up if you want it. Yeah, go for it. But the way he starts it... So yeah, he's in Schneckleburg or whatever, but you're in Pennsylvania.
Starting point is 01:39:15 Yeah. So what does Chris Berman do when he's doing a thing in Pennsylvania? Hit it all the way to Gettysburg. So he knows all the cities' names. And so yeah, when you're... You know how it is. If you're at a concert and somebody said,
Starting point is 01:39:31 Hey, Richland Hills. You'd be like, Yeah! Hell, he knows my... You know? You ever been to one where they got it wrong? I've seen that at least twice. Because they're on the road and they don't know what city they're in? 60 date.
Starting point is 01:39:47 Hey, Cincinnati! Yeah. I've heard, hey, Houston and San Antonio before. Okay. Well, so that's what he's doing. We're playing, you know, as he does, plays to the crowd. And that's going to lead us to the Gettysburg viral moment. From Harrisburg
Starting point is 01:40:04 to Pittsburgh, from Easton to Bethlehem, and from Johnstown to Allentown, we stand on the shoulders of American legends who poured out their blood, sweat, and tears for our rights and for our freedoms. And it's been a very rough period of time, I'll tell you what, for this country. It's never had. I don't think our country has ever been so low.
Starting point is 01:40:27 Well, there was a time when like half the country left. There was a literal civil war. Yeah. There was a pandemic. Pandemic, race riots. Yeah, there was
Starting point is 01:40:42 a time when the president actually got his head blown off at a rally. Yeah, and was a time when the president actually got his head blown off at a rally. Yeah, and people were pretty upset about it. And then, yeah. I wasn't there, but that's what I've heard. We've been so low, but we're going to change it. I may have not been paying attention. Did you mention the time that those people, those hooligans, flew two planes into our nation's fucking district?
Starting point is 01:41:03 It was a pretty low time. I fucking... It was pretty low time. I feel like that was pretty low, but... Okay, sorry. But we're going to change it. We're going to get numbers like nobody's ever seen. I think we're going to swamp them. What does that mean? This isn't drain the swamp.
Starting point is 01:41:17 This is we're going to swamp them. We're also going to drain the swamp. It's a double swamp. Pennsylvania's where our founding fathers declared American independence. You have to stop it. That is awesome. It's stream of consciousness.
Starting point is 01:41:32 Yeah. Like he's like, well, I've used swamp over here. You know, like sometimes if you're, like if you write an article or whatever and you realize that you started two straight sentences with the word like, but or however,
Starting point is 01:41:43 or, and you're like, oh, that doesn't work. Yeah. But for him, he's like, no, it's just two of them. It's just two different ones. It's just two different ones. I'll work with this. We're going to swamp them and we're going to drain the swamp
Starting point is 01:41:58 because I already had that one on deck. All the swamps. This isn't drain the swamp. This is we're going to swamp them. We're also going't drain the swamp. This is we're going to swamp, but we're also going to drain the swamp. Well, yeah, because we. It's a double swamp. Pennsylvania's where our founding fathers declared American independence.
Starting point is 01:42:16 So much history. I mean, you have so much history here. Just think of it. It's where the army weathered its brutal winter. We're sort of weathering it right now, but I don't think. I'm basically a troop from the Civil War. It is funny when he'll do that, too. Like, try to put himself
Starting point is 01:42:31 in the same spot, and then that might... Like, it's rare that he ever backs off of anything. He's like, I mean, we're kind of... I'm pretty effing cold myself, but I mean,
Starting point is 01:42:42 it was probably pretty bad when you had, you know... Trench foot. Yeah, yeah. That was also was probably pretty bad when you had, you know. Trench foot. Yeah, yeah. That was also not good. But, you know, look, my lifestyle is I'm accustomed to this lifestyle. It's where the Army weathered its brutal winter.
Starting point is 01:42:58 We're sort of weathering it right now, but I don't say. But I don't say. Theirs was much worse. It's where the Army weathered its brutal winter at Valley Forge, where General George Washington led his men on a daring mission across the Delaware, and where our union was saved by the immortal heroes at Gettysburg. Gettysburg, what an unbelievable battle that was, the Battle of Gettysburg. What an unbelievable, I mean, it was so much and so interesting and so vicious and horrible and so beautiful in so many different ways. It represented such a big portion of the success of this country.
Starting point is 01:43:35 Gettysburg, wow. I go to Gettysburg. We're not quite done, but... The last 20 seconds is the thing that makes him so easy to impersonate. It's quintessential, yes. Yeah, he just says the same thing over and over. I almost think he sounds more... I saw Gettysburg, and I said, you know, Gettysburg, it was beautiful, and people say that it's beautiful, and then Gettysburg, wow.
Starting point is 01:44:06 It's awesome. But also, as he's describing it's beautiful, and then Gettysburg, wow. It's awesome. But also, as he's describing it as beautiful, then he has to kind of remember, yeah, there's tons of dead people lying there. But I would give him somewhat of a pass on that. Because, I mean, you know, there are people that would look at battle and say, like, there's something beautiful about that. Like, from a human spirit standpoint, being willing to die for something or whatever. That wasn't really the worst part of it. The worst part of it, I think, is actually coming
Starting point is 01:44:34 because right now we're on the Union side. Right. Right now he's extolling the greatness of the Union, the daring mission from George Washington. Do you think he's real sure of what went down at Gettysburg? I don't. Yeah. But he knows, like, he's heard of it.
Starting point is 01:44:49 Yeah. Like, a lot of, we've heard of it a lot. They say it a lot. We've heard of it a lot. Allentown, that was pretty cool in that Billy Joel song, but I don't think it's as important to history as Gettysburg, so I'm going to focus on Gettysburg. Creation of the suburbs, though. The Battle of Gettysburg, so I'm going to focus on Gettysburg. Creation of the suburbs, though.
Starting point is 01:45:05 The Battle of Gettysburg, what an unbelievable... I mean, it was so much and so interesting. I feel like he's more of a James Austin Johnson. It almost sounds like his nose is stuffed up a little bit. Like, James Austin Johnson will have that effect more than not.
Starting point is 01:45:21 I agree with you. The Shane part is just the wow. Yeah wow yeah yeah yeah like it'll be looking around walking into a room and i saw this room and then i said this is a big room and a lamp wow i mean it was so much and so interesting and so vicious and horrible and so beautiful in so many different ways it represented such a big portion of the success of this country. Gettysburg, wow. I go to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania to look and to watch.
Starting point is 01:45:51 Wait, I want to keep going there. Gettysburg, wow. I go to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania to look and to watch. I love that. To look and to watch at what? Gettysburg, wow. I go to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania to look and to watch? What? Gettysburg, wow. I go to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania
Starting point is 01:46:06 to look and to watch. And the statement of Robert E. Lee... Okay, I thought he was going to say what he watches, but no. I'm sure there's a museum, I would imagine. Look and watch things. Yeah, but I just go to look and watch.
Starting point is 01:46:18 Gettysburg, wow. I go to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania to look and to watch. And the statement of Robert E. Lee, who's no longer in favor. Did you ever notice that? No longer in favor. Never fight uphill, me boys. Okay, we're going to get more.
Starting point is 01:46:33 Yeah, yeah. But yes, this is the whole, he knows like a nice part of his base. They're fired up about taking down statues. Renaming things. They're kind of on board with Robert E. Lee you know but yes this is where his grasp of history and how
Starting point is 01:46:52 we're not real sure but let me just send a nod to you it's kind of like you used to do or on terrestrial radio you used to have to kind of send a little nod to a fellow pot smoker or somebody who understood 420. You might just say 420.
Starting point is 01:47:08 Hey, it's 420, you know? Yeah. And that's it. It's just like you're giving a nod to them without being real overt. Sure. And then people would see you at a remote. Hey, dude, you down, bro? You know?
Starting point is 01:47:21 Anyway, but yes, let's continue on, though, because we need to talk about Robert E. Lee. Robert E. Lee, and it seems like she's sometimes not that big a... Have you noticed it? ...barn into that. Never fight uphill, me boys. Oh, wait, sorry, let me back up. And the statement of Robert E. Lee, who's no longer in favor.
Starting point is 01:47:42 Did you ever notice that? No longer in favor. Never fight uphill, me boys. Never fight uphill's no longer in favor. Did you ever notice that? No longer in favor. Never fight uphill, me boys. Never fight uphill. They were fighting uphill. He said, wow, that was a big mistake. He lost his great general. And they were fighting. Never fight uphill,
Starting point is 01:47:56 me boys. But it was too late. What is he imitating there? Is that the rally cry of Robert E. Lee? Yeah, I mean... Afterwards, like, because they were fighting up a hill? That seems to make sense. I guess I don't want to fight up a hill.
Starting point is 01:48:16 Well, I mean... I'd rather be on top of the hill. Figure of speech, like you're fighting an uphill battle? But he kind of said it a couple times as if he's just recently heard it. And he said, me boys. Like he's a seafaring captain. Never fight an uphill for me boys. That's all that was, the Battle of Gettysburg.
Starting point is 01:48:38 What an unbelievable, I mean, it was so much and so interesting and so vicious and horrible and so beautiful in so many different ways. It represented such a big portion of the success of this country. Gettysburg. Wow. I go to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania to look and to watch. And the statement of Robert E. Lee, who's no longer in favor. Did you ever notice that? No longer in favor. Never fight uphill, me boys. Never fight uphill. They were fighting uphill.
Starting point is 01:49:08 He said, wow, that was a big mistake. He lost his great general, and they were fighting. Never fight uphill, me boys. But it was too late. Me boys. Get you plenty of citrus to avoid the scurvy. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, I Googled it, but the zone is just flooded with stories about Trump.
Starting point is 01:49:32 Like, I don't know that Robert E. Lee actually ever said this. But, yeah, but somebody would have said, like, oh, this is a link to this text of whenever this was supposed to have been said. But I don't know. It's also really funny if you imagine. I mean, the Civil War is one of the bloodiest things that has happened. Let's just say Western Hemisphere last four centuries. It's tough to compare to, right? It's horrible.
Starting point is 01:49:59 But if you imagine that Robert E. Lee made a tactical error and then he was like, wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Big mistake. No, I don't think that's exactly how that went. Did you guys see the ERCOT warning? No. They're already bugging over high temps in freaking April, buddy. Caroline. Can we come live here? No, no. You got a sweet crib. Oh, sorry.
Starting point is 01:50:30 No, my bad. Whatever. And yes, we're going to live here anyway. You guys got a generator? We do. What are you doing? Come on, bro. I'm just saying, you just built this house in today's current climate.
Starting point is 01:50:46 It was after Snowmageddon. Yeah, and you're like, we're putting in a generator. Correct. Okay. You thought about it. So we could broadcast here? Yes. Is it open?
Starting point is 01:50:58 Are you saying, you just said that legally. Absolutely. That's legally binding if we get blacked out. Yeah. That's legally binding if we get blacked out. They're saying there could be a power deficiency tomorrow and Wednesday. And it's not even really supposed to be that hot. It's like low 90s, mid 90s. This week?
Starting point is 01:51:15 Yes. Oh, I thought this was like this June or July. Yeah, they're warning us for August. Dude, it's not even 90s. It's like high 80s, low 90s. Morning us for August. Dude, it's not even 90. It's like high 80s, low 90s.
Starting point is 01:51:30 You know what happened is that... Do you guys listen? Go ahead, Blake. That eclipse just took out so much of our solar power. I think you're right. Yeah. All the solar panels are in the red. Do you guys listen when they tell you to do it? No.
Starting point is 01:51:44 None of you do? No. No. I can't say anything you to do it? No. None of you do? No. No, I can't say I do. Mark? Caroline? No. Okay. You guys take it cooler. I don't do that.
Starting point is 01:51:54 You do like a Gaylord Hotel ice party where you have to have mitts to be in your house. I don't go overboard, but, you know, what do you... Come on. I kind of believe with absolutely no evidence or basis that the smart
Starting point is 01:52:16 thermostats can be manipulated by big, cool... We've seen that. I believe that to be true. Yeah. What do you mean we've seen that. I believe that to be true. Yeah. What do you mean we've seen that?
Starting point is 01:52:29 Like without you even doing it, I think it does it for you. Well, what do you mean we've seen it though? Exactly what Jake is saying. You've seen it at your house? No, no, no. There have been news stories. I think there's been news stories,
Starting point is 01:52:38 but they were always like, hey, this person said that happened. No, if I'm remembering correctly, it's some part of your agreement in some cities that they can control your thermostat. Yeah. Which is probably not a bad idea because, especially if people just go to work all day and then, right?
Starting point is 01:53:01 Yeah, but you pay the bill. Yeah. So, I don't... Look. I thought you were socialist. Yeah, I am, but I feel like on that one... Not when it comes to your air conditioning? I feel like on that one, the government...
Starting point is 01:53:13 There's a difference between socialism and communism. You still have some choices you can make. It's all the same to me. Is it? That's right. I don't even know what that means it's fascist there is a this story is from a couple years ago and it it does admit that txu uh can't control your thermostat and it's a part of an agreement that you are uh participating in the program but you actively have to like now if you want to talk about communist participating in the program, but you actively have to. Now, if you want to talk about communist, participating in the program sounds extremely communist.
Starting point is 01:53:47 You have to deliberately go in and uncheck or whatever, unsubscribe from this program, but you're just naturally put into it. Why didn't Blake ever remind me to get a generator? Dude. 20,000 times. I will tell you this, though, from the Brunig files. The rent house has an electric stove
Starting point is 01:54:06 i'm on board do you like it better than the gas i like it way better my wife had a gas put into our house yeah that's what most people people ladies love gas they do yeah and i remember like uh when i was trying to talk to my mom about it, she was like, no. The cooking is uneven. Dude, it's better. First of all, it's safe. It's environmentally friendly. And it heats way quicker.
Starting point is 01:54:36 Yeah, but it's not real, Jake. It's not like it's a grill. Like where you can actually taste the smoke or the charcoal or something like that i like it and this has been rent house update is it the coils uh just a flat it's just flat okay yeah you ever light a cigarette on the coils what do you think absolutely right we all have of course the knife. I started smoking just to do that. You know about knife rips? No. A knife rip.
Starting point is 01:55:09 Yeah, so anybody else want to help me? Or am I on my own on this one? The sole millennial pothead? Do these people look like knife rip people? People change. I mean, they have us here. Knife rip people don't live in a house like this. They clearly have grown out of some kind of, or almost grown out of some kind of...
Starting point is 01:55:26 So what you do is, you can do it with pot, but it's better with hash. Pot works, though. You take two butter knives, heat up the stove, and then put them in the coils. Okay. It feels like your hand's going to get pretty hot there. Just hold the knife, and then just stick it in the coil. Okay. Feels like your hand's going to get pretty hot there. No, no, no. Just hold the knife and then just stick it in the coil. And then you have
Starting point is 01:55:49 typically like you take a 2 liter or a 20 ounce right? Bottle. And then cut that somewhere at the bottom. Doesn't have to be halfway, but two thirds, whatever. You still with me?
Starting point is 01:56:05 Sure. So now we're going to take that bottle. Obviously, you're going to inhale from the top of it. Take those knives and then take your bud or your hash and, like, put the two knives on it. And it is going to absolutely fry that little piece. So does smoke up? And it's going to be like, it's basically like a..... You're holding the bottle over that and it's just funneling that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:56:30 It's basically like a... What do like the crackhead type pot people do? Other than what I'm describing? The thing that will blow up your house? No. I kind of know what you're talking about. I know in my head.
Starting point is 01:56:48 But it's basically like you're creating a torch. Okay. And it happens very fast. And I used to... So it really comes up. Yeah. Oh.
Starting point is 01:56:57 And I used to... I used to charge people for this. Like you would do it? Yeah. For them? I was like not participating. But I would have a line of like 15, 20 people at my house.
Starting point is 01:57:11 And people already had money for the keg, you know, so I'd be like, alright, buck a rip. I was a businessman. I know, and that's why I'm really confident in what we're doing. That's because of knife rip guy? Yeah, because you are just always thinking of a way to make another dollar.
Starting point is 01:57:27 Hundreds of North Texas students last year were sent to disciplinary alternative schools because they were caught vaping. There is a new state law. That seems kind of pretty far away. It says if you get caught with a vape, you're getting sent somewhere else. That seems quite a leap. Yeah. It says that...
Starting point is 01:57:53 It's just because vaping is so unknown, right? And olds get upset with anything they can't really... They don't know about. Yeah, and it's weird, too, because I remember... They were all smoking in high school. That's exactly what I was going to say. I'm positive that... It's just a different thing. Yeah, your kids in the 80s...
Starting point is 01:58:09 They were all impregnating each other and smoking and all this kind of stuff. Yeah. You're not sending kids to alternative school in the 80s if you found a pack of cigarettes on them. That seems insane. You don't want to have them at school. Is just texas um this particular law is is a state law yeah new state law cool pretty fired up about everything here it's ridiculous think of caroline's kids what if
Starting point is 01:58:38 they just happen to you know i'm gonna try it with my friends or something they get caught and now you get sent to another school yeah it, it feels like there should be some... I mean, also, I can tell you, you get addicted. So now you're punishing somebody for... I mean, I'm not saying it's not their fault, but something that's a little bit bigger than like... It's not like cheating on your test. You know, like an act of commission
Starting point is 01:59:04 where you actually went and did something nefarious. You know? I don't know. It's weird. It's not like they're doing ice. He just really wanted to say that. That's a thing, right? Ice is like a drug or something.
Starting point is 01:59:22 I think it's just meth. Pretty much, yeah. Did I ever tell you that there were two girls at my high school? Both very attractive. Probably seems like an unnecessary note. But they were known as the Ice Queens. Nice.
Starting point is 01:59:41 Because they really, really liked that stuff. I think having them be attracted... So were they meth hot, or they were actually just hot even if they didn't do meth? Because I would think that might have... The latter. Popped them up a couple notches for you.
Starting point is 01:59:52 Yeah. Like, cool, you do meth every day? I think... I don't think things turned out well. Oh. But for a brief moment in time, two of the more attractive females at my high school were smoking speed. Let's get them on.
Starting point is 02:00:13 Did you see them at your reunion? They were younger than I was. At Jerry World? No, I have not. It was at the Star, but pretty close. All right, there's your news. All right. I like to do it when he's leaning back. Alright, there's your news. Alright. I like to do it
Starting point is 02:00:28 when he's leaning back. We get it. We think that's all hilarious. Okay. Okay. You know what I never did is My article? Never did your article but you also told me before you didn't think you wanted to do it today.
Starting point is 02:00:48 So now you're throwing that in the bush. Why would I ever say that? Your little article. That's online. All right. So at least let me do... I won't do all the viewer mail but I will do a couple of birthdays from subbies day to 1526 here can you wish me a happy 27th birthday also thank Jake for the Lakehouse story follow-up. I assumed it was something eating-related since it's you,
Starting point is 02:01:30 but not that kind of eating. Thanks from Topher. I do find that there are things that in our radio life we might have done five times on the air over the years. And people are like, I never knew the story to that yeah like even now people say i never knew the story to what's the no puppet thing what's that drop all about yeah and have you ever figured that out blake on where exactly that is because we we did break it down before bl Blake joined us here on the podcast that was my question for closing remarks
Starting point is 02:02:07 where did no puppet okay I guess we'll get to it then before she has to pick up her kids so move it along I'm sorry hey dumb zone world it's me yours truly this birthday wishes for Keaton DF number 498
Starting point is 02:02:23 it's his Dirk minus Dwight Powell birthday. What is Dwight Powell now? He's 34. Really? I don't know. Yes, you're right. Yeah, he's seven. Okay.
Starting point is 02:02:39 His leaders are Blake's gay voice. Don't make me do math with this every day, with your birthdays. His leaders are Blake's gay voice. It says make me do math with this every day with your birthdays. His leaders are Blake's gay voice. It says here his words, not mine. 69 bits, 420 bits, Lower Heaven OJ Simpson and the unbuilt
Starting point is 02:02:55 911 Memorial in Rose Hill, Kansas which is currently taking donations. Thanks for making a joke out of Damned Everything from number 945 Brian. And then he says, P.S. More Blake.
Starting point is 02:03:10 After he wrote that you had a gay voice. That's not cool. I would never say that about you, dude. No, you just thought I was gay. Right.
Starting point is 02:03:20 Your voice is hot, though. That did happen. And that's fine, dude. Is that why you didn't come to my wedding? I don't want to meet him. It'll never last. It's just a cover. It's just some dudes.
Starting point is 02:03:33 It's a beard. Let's see. So today in history, Monday, April 15th, on this day in 1912, the Titanic sank. 1,500 people died. Half as many survived. So I think I'd rather just die in that. I don't want to survive with all those others. I want to just survive
Starting point is 02:03:56 me. Yeah, I mean... I don't need 700 people. Do y'all believe it was an insurance scam? Is that a thing? Yeah. I've never heard of that, Blake. Only Blake would say that. Yes. Conspiracy theory guy.
Starting point is 02:04:09 It's great. I've never, ever thought of that. Said it couldn't sink, huh? We'll see about that. On this day in 1947, Jackie Robinson made his official debut with the Dodgers. Dan. So on this day in 1997,
Starting point is 02:04:22 the 50th anniversary of Jackie Robinson's breaking the color barrier. And not, I just want to make this clear. It's not because the World Series had been recently canceled because of labor disputes and Major League Baseball was trying to get back in good graces with their fans for the long run. That had nothing to do with the fact that Bud Selig announced that the number 42 would be retired in perpetuity for every team. Hmm.
Starting point is 02:04:50 Right. Would have done it either way. Would have done it either way, even if they had had extra World Series the year before. Why would they have ever had extra World Series? On this day in 1989. Jeez. Let's see.
Starting point is 02:05:11 In Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield, England, 96 people died in a crush of soccer fans. Do you think this is the legendary one? It is. With me and Bob? It is. It in fact is. You know the end of this story, don't you?
Starting point is 02:05:33 No, I was hoping. 96 people died. I know the end of the story, but I don't know the you and Bob part. Well, no, the end of the story is that, because it says right here, however, the 96 people that died, it says here, they were only soccer fans. So, I mean, it wasn't really that big of a deal in history. I feel like she might be into soccer.
Starting point is 02:05:59 I did play soccer. Are you stoked on soccer? I can tell by that. I'm not a European soccer. It's the beautiful game. Yeah, the world's game. That's what I call it. This day in 2013, two bombs made from pressure cookers
Starting point is 02:06:15 exploded at the Boston Marathon finish line. That was insane. Killing two women and an eight-year-old boy and injuring more than 260. Dude, I was in front of my television like it was an NFL Sunday. Watching the manhunt? Insane. I think it was like a Friday afternoon.
Starting point is 02:06:38 Have they killed the guy that did it? Well, one of them died, But the other one is in Supermax in Colorado. Did you watch the documentary Netflix did? I've not. Is it good? It's amazing. Funny? A real knee slapper.
Starting point is 02:06:56 Dude, because they had like... What's it called? Do you remember? They had like a... It's not infrared, but like heat signature type cameras. And he was under that boat.
Starting point is 02:07:13 Yeah, you've got to watch it. Okay. Interested. Oh, American Manhunt? And on this day in 2019, this is when the Notre Dame Cathedral was ablaze. Sorry, Dan.
Starting point is 02:07:30 Yeah, I've recently seen the Notre Dame Cathedral. You been to Paris? I have. It's pretty sweet. I thought it was cool. Yeah, it was good. It was a long time ago. I was a kid. I don't really remember it was good. It was a long time ago.
Starting point is 02:07:46 I was a kid. I don't really remember that much. No real, nothing there for me. A follow-up on that one. Today's birthdays, we have John Danks, 39. Really, really good dude. Former Ranger prospect, a 1-9 in 2013. John Danks, I don't think you know who he is. John Daniels.
Starting point is 02:08:03 Sorry. John Danks DVD. Yeah. Antonio Crom Daniels. Sorry. John Danks DVD. Yeah. Antonio Cromartie is 40. Is he 13? He's the one with all the kids? Yeah. We got Alonzo.
Starting point is 02:08:15 Who's nine? And like three of the kids, like all, many of the kids were born, like he'll go in waves, right? Yeah, and I believe. Or I should say he'll go in waves, right? Yeah, and I believe... Or I should say he'll come in waves. Okay, I love it. One of those waves came post-vasectomy. There you go. That's how good he was.
Starting point is 02:08:36 Yeah. Jason Sehorne is 53. No longer, but was married to Angie Harmon. Isn't there a white cornerback who's going to be drafted in the first round? Cooper Dijon. Iowa? Mm-hmm. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:08:49 Colin Allred is 41. There was definitely a time. Wait, who is that? Isn't he the politician? Oh, okay, yeah. The running against Cruz? Running against Cruz. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:08:58 I think I was thinking of Colin Mockery. Whose line is it anyway? Yeah, there was a time where that was a big player in my home. Seth Rogen, 42. Colin Albrecht, I believe, a Sooner? Ed O'Brien, 56, from Radiohead. Columnist Heloise, 73. Emma Watson, 34.
Starting point is 02:09:20 Hermione. Maisie Williams is 27. That's Aa Stark. Thomas Wilson is 65. Biff from Back to the Future. And Andy Daly is 53 from Eastbound and Down. Who's he? We're looking.
Starting point is 02:09:38 I think he's his little buddy, isn't he? Stevie? Could he be 53? Is that too old? No, that sounds about right. I love him. Or could he be the principal? Andy Bailey.
Starting point is 02:09:57 Andy Daly. D-A-L-Y. Okay. He's the principal. Okay. You know, Kenny, I... Played a little ball myself. Born on this day, now's the principal Okay You know Kenny I Played a little ball myself Born on this day now dead
Starting point is 02:10:08 It's Frank Vincent Went a lot of marathons Do a lot of biking Frank Vincent was in the Sopranos Yeah you know all about that Not trying to be the best And he was Billy Bats In Goodfellas
Starting point is 02:10:17 Who said go get your F'n shine box And how about this fun fact Oh yeah this guy's great When looking him up this morning, fun fact, from his Wikipedia page, skilled at the drums, piano, and trumpet, Vincent originally aspired to a career in music.
Starting point is 02:10:34 By day, he was a studio musician who worked with many recording artists such as Paul Anka and Del Shannon. Vincent had his own jazz band billed as Frank Vincent and the Aristocats, that played the evenings. In 1969, his band
Starting point is 02:10:51 needed a piano player to secure bookings, and Vincent hired Joe Pesci to play guitar. Okay. As the popularity of lounge music waned, Vincent and Pesci turned to stand-up comedy.
Starting point is 02:11:15 They performed as Vincent and Pesci from 1970 to 1976. Their act had Abbott and Costello-inspired double-act antics with Don Rickles style insult comedy, which proved popular. That's wild. Who knew that Joe Pesci was a stand-up comedian with a well-known... I mean, you could kind of see it, but the guy from Sopranos, I can't see it at all.
Starting point is 02:11:44 I found a couple of their comedy albums. Maybe we should play these more in full later. You could make me grow up tall. Some brand new toys. And another thing. Puppy, dog, and ding-a-ling-a-ling. The thing that I really... Fast forward here a little bit.
Starting point is 02:12:03 Yeah, he's... Can you fix the way I talk? Fast forward here a little bit. Yeah, he's... Okay, that's obviously some kind of a Christmas song. Okay, I thought it was going to be... Okay, that's supposedly their bit. You know what's weird, though, is just the death of the comedy album. I was thinking about the comedy album this weekend because I'm watching the Steve Martin documentary on Apple TV. And the first half is all about his stand-up comedy.
Starting point is 02:12:39 And then the Adam Sandler albums. Two huge albums. I just wore those out. Died on this day, we have Abraham Lincoln, Pol Pot, and R. Lee Ermey from Full Metal Jacket. You talked to him, didn't you? I did.
Starting point is 02:13:01 More specifically from Saving Silverman. And that was today in history. Which you should watch with your wife if you've never seen it. Well, I don't know that's more specific. That's pretty specific right there. Well, I guess I mean more notably, perhaps. I don't know. Saving Silverman, he's fantastic.
Starting point is 02:13:17 Put him on the map. No. When he did the full-blown jacket. Which one do you know him from, Blake? Saving Silverman. Thank you. Now, we welcome Caroline to the center stage. Is Caroline on video at all or no?
Starting point is 02:13:32 People are just going to be emailing us about that. You didn't want video. Oh, I don't know the answer. But that's all we get after Drop Beth was on the other day. It's like, bro, send me a pic. I asked Michael. I literally asked how old she was. She has a pretty young voice.
Starting point is 02:13:50 Okay. Well, I never asked her her age because I don't think that's gentlemanly to do. That's true. Although Jake did ask you. I think that asking a woman their age is the same as asking a man their age because I just see all of us as humans.
Starting point is 02:14:06 Okay. I just haven't seen him ask. He didn't ask your husband a damn thing. If you have special rules for women, then I guess you view them as fragile. The only thing he asked your husband is to get him to drink. I asked him what he does. We talked.
Starting point is 02:14:22 He hasn't been dutifully refilling my water, though, for two hours. He's got to be confused about what the hell is going on here. Closing remarks from Caroline. Thanks for having us out. Thanks for coming. It was awesome. I loved it. Okay, good.
Starting point is 02:14:39 We're glad. So you want to know about No Puppet, huh? No Puppet and line four guy slash heart attack guy same guy i i kind of thought i wouldn't no one knows no i was like the mystery i don't think i'm gonna get how did you put that together okay we'll go back to no puppet uh yeah so this is from 2016 in the Trump-Hillary... I have it pulled up if you want. Okay.
Starting point is 02:15:08 I'll play the longer one, I guess. But it's from the Trump-Hillary debates. And they were arguing about Putin and Russia, which I think will all become pretty apparent. I don't know Putin. He said nice things about me. If we got along well, that would be good. If Russia and the United States got along well and went after ISIS well that would be good if Russia and the United States got
Starting point is 02:15:25 along well and went after Isis that would be good he has no respect for her he has no respect for our president and I'll tell you what we're in very serious trouble because we have a country with tremendous numbers of nuclear warheads 1800 by the way where they expanded and we didn't. 1800 nuclear warheads. And she's playing chicken. Look, Putin, from everything I see, has no respect for this person. Well, that's because he'd rather have a puppet as president of the United States. No puppet.
Starting point is 02:16:00 No puppet. It's pretty clear. You're the puppet. It's pretty clear. You won't admit that the Russians have engaged in – Okay, so you've got that. And then within about a week of that, I got pretty much blackout drunk on a Cowboys live stream
Starting point is 02:16:17 that I was doing with our friend TC at the time. This is eight years ago. I was a different person. You haven't noticed that. Yeah. We were just saying this to each other all week. We were just like, you're the puppet. No puppet. You're the puppet.
Starting point is 02:16:32 Then I just got hammered. The Cowboys were playing the Eagles. I think it was Witten with a walk-off touchdown. That's when I just started yelling, you know, No puppet! Yeah, I think there's more. I mean, let's see.
Starting point is 02:16:49 There's a... Let's see. This one's a not safe for work. No puppets! Oh, it's beeped. We don't have to beep stuff anymore, but we have all the audio from beep days. But yeah, I just started...
Starting point is 02:17:03 That's it. Perfect. There's really not much more to it to trump wasn't it like a dez her fades back it was either a dez or a witten but yeah then it started like showing up in like tv shows and stuff there is no big picture there was a job and i fulfilled my duty and that's more than i could say for you oh come on you know damn well it's not how the dark army works you don't go from most wanted man on the planet to hero unless they have plans for you how can you not see that the things i did the things i sacrificed i earned my freedom that's the least they could give me you're being
Starting point is 02:17:34 added to a collection of puppets no puppet no puppet you're the puppet wake up yeah so that's pretty much it it It's not that entertaining. Oh, but now I know. Yeah, and so does like the bank because it's a name for an impossible company. Let me see what this is. They're putting the chains down. No use for them. Rest of this game.
Starting point is 02:17:58 Here we go. Now what you're about to hear, this is the drunkest I've ever been recorded in my life. Okay. Yeah, it's my life. Okay. Yeah. It's really embarrassing. Game. Holy. Fade. Des Bryant.

So embarrassing right there. But there's your full context. Do you have any other closing remarks? No. I'm still not going to get anything from Line 4 guy.
Starting point is 02:19:22 Oh, we don't know. Okay. Do you still have the mask that you wore at Campound? I do not. And you know what I actually have in the back of my car right now? There's a really weird deal. Over the past like 10 years, I have accumulated so many props and costumes. And like when we were moving, I just took a minute to look at each one of them.
Starting point is 02:19:46 I'm like, what do I do with this? I've got 30 costumes and wigs and masks and you know, like female underwear. I can't count that one here. I've just got so much junk.
Starting point is 02:20:02 Maybe I'll give some of it away this weekend at Alamo Drafthouse. At the 420 event. Which you can watch. On YouTube. HTTP. No, just YouTube. Okay. Thanks, Caroline. Adios,
