All right, all right, all right, all right, all right I never listen I'm gonna listen to the dumb zone Ah yes, Jake, here we are again. Happy Thursday. And same to you. We're doing a video pod today,

so we're kind of moving around the frees and the paid-fors. Generally, it's Monday, Thursday is free, Tuesday, Friday paid. Okay, so I guess we're not moving this one around. No. But we did move the Tuesday to a freebie, correct? And made Monday unfree. That's what we were supposed to do. Really?

Because of the video. We videoed Monday. Oh. I don't care. I love this so much. I don't even know. I can't stop grooving. I can't remember what we did.

I remember yesterday was Business Wednesday. Somebody has a wah pedal. And I think it's him. A wah-po? No. You've been in the WAPO? I have Yeah I have

So today If you haven't noticed Is a little bit of a different vibe As We are in a studio But it's not our studio Correct It is a music studio

Music Music Music And it is the music studio. Music. Music. Music. And it is the music studio of the well-known band Prophets and Outlaws. And they're taking a lot of my job from me today. I can play this for Prophets and Outlaws, no? You guys don't have that, do you?

Nice try. Matt? Yes. Are you a prophet or? I'm a prophet. I don't know about these other guys. Okay, is that? Well, certainly there are more than one prophet.

There is. We kind of came up with the name thinking like we would be the prophets, fans would be the outlaws. We all have different personalities though, prophet days and outlaw days and this is your abode this is my abode this is where we get all of our work done we do all of our records here a lot of rehearsals here and uh it's great it's i mean it's everything we could ask for for getting together and working on our craft i would agree jake got here well before me and he said, you're not going to believe this place. Because we've been at two really high-toned places this week. Correct.

Michael very so adequately put it, it's been the week of houses. Yeah. We're the Clarence Thomas of podcasters. We have friends. Pubes? Yes, we do throw pubes on Pepsi cans. What? You don't know about that?

That was what was in the way of Clarence Thomas getting not... Didn't really get in the way, but... How does he not know about that? He probably wasn't even born yet. What's a can doing down there? Clarence Thomas, who makes most of your laws. This is a Kemp spin. Write it down.

Put a pube on a Pepsi can that one of his law clerks was drinking. Ew. Yeah. Anita Hill. Anita Hill, in fact, yeah. His pube. Yeah, trying to- I don't know if that makes it better or worse, but-

That's like a- It was a courting thing, a mating ritual. Yeah. I thought that might lead to- Oh, she might like the taste or something? I don't know. And you might wonder, if you're doing that, has it worked before?

Are you telling me that's the first time he ever threw the pube on the Pepsi trick? That's certainly always your question, and I think it's valid. That means you should try it. I think there are very few things I'm grossed out by. Pubes, one of them. Is that why you shave them all off?

Yeah. Matt, are you regretting this yet? You demand that she shaves them all off? I'm watching Stephanie and Mike laugh over there. What's your pube sitch? Can you shave them all off, please? And can you get braces? We're moving on from that.

You don't shave them at all? Me? You're a light guy. No All right. You don't shave them at all? Me? You're a light guy. No, I do the beard trimmer for sure. Yeah? The Lawn Mower 5.0? Yeah. Yeah, there's still...

It's like the frog hair, right? You golf, right? I'm just guessing he golfs. There's like a putting green and a golf simulator out back. That's true. So maybe that's not for him. Maybe he just rents it out yeah maybe um yeah dude this is uh this is a very cool setup so prophets and outlaws have not only they've said they're going to be the music for today's show they kind of like just took over like all right fine we welcome that yeah and um so obviously you've got the open

down and if we do go into different bits and stuff you ready for like viewer mail and news and and all that kind of stuff we are you are guys that have heard of this podcast we've heard of the podcast going way back we've even read some of the court documents. Oh, yeah? That's right. Favorite part? It may be what's on the pillow that you got. That's pretty classic.

It's tough to beat. No, I don't. I've never researched something I've never heard of. No. Okay. Okay. We just want to... Jake asked that because it's like when Jake once asked LeBron,

what's your favorite Godfather scene? All of them. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The whole 32 pages. At first, you kind of seemed like you were going there. But no. You obviously have read it. Read it. Maybe read it on Reddit. It was on Reddit.

Yeah. Yes. That's what I heard. Yeah. That was a good bit. Was it? I was pretty pretty active i think the whole scene was pretty uh interesting to people very interesting fascinating yeah and then it was a good bit when people jumped on reddit and talked about it because like they're kind of pro us so that makes it a better bit i don't think it's a good bit if you're anti-us. Yeah? Who can say? I mean, who is, though?

How would I know? No one's ever been anti-us. No. They just support us. So you guys not only have, though you told us, you not only have all the intros and outros and all that kind of stuff today, but you've also come up with an original, like a different theme song. Like we used to have in our old open, we had the Mark Rubbier open.

Yeah. And then that would end and then it would go into something that was your idea. It was kind of a late night talk show typey open. And we have one of those perhaps? We do. You want a late night talk show typey open and we have one of those perhaps we do you want a late night this is how we start our our show when we you know play out when we ripped off the your guys intro okay so you use this this isn't just for us we well yes we needed an intro for like our show to like start everything okay and it all came from the idea of something that y'all did.

Oh wow. A derivative of sorts. Yes. Okay. So this is not Trailblazers. Trailblazers. You know us.

Yeah. Ready? Swashbuckling. You're listening to the dumb zone today on the dumb zone jake with nba audio viewer mail a bill belichick profile by don van nada and the moment you're all waiting for, here he is, folks, Blake Jones.

So you say your show, what does that mean? You know, when we perform live in front of people. Oh, okay, it's not like, okay, that's... God, that's good. Yeah. We are a traveling music band, as Matt likes to say. A traveling band? A traveling music group.

A traveling music group. Yeah, a confusing phrase that I said once on the video. Do we have a tour coming up? No, we tour here. We'll be gone for the weekend maybe, but we don't tour. Just around the Parker area? Five, six hours. What are you doing in Vail?

Oh yeah, that's a gig. Yeah, we do travel. We have a private party in Vail. We do private parties and occasionally they'll fly us out. All right, what, that's a gig. Yeah, we do travel. We have a private party in Vail. We do private parties, and occasionally they'll fly us out. All right, what's that cost? As you know, it's pretty cheap to get the old dumb zone out here. It's not pretty cheap to get Profits and Outlaws in Vail. Okay, yeah.

What does that run you? Steven broke it all down. He could give you how much we put, or renting instruments and renting sound and flying out there. Yeah, we charge. Is it at least, is it 10 times what we charge to be here today? Yes. Is it... What would be more than that?

He wants to keep it shut up. 100 times? Not 100 times. Not 100 times. That would be cool. I think he would tell us. Tens of times. The old 69,000 would be great.

Yeah, what are we talking? I want Providence and Outlaws at my birthday party, but... In Vail. I don't know you. Because I feel like you'd give me a little bit of a discount. In town or out of town? Vail. Vail, like 15 to 20.

Okay. That's a deal. Now, do you also say... Much like people do in my neighborhood. We've had a problem and we found a tree guy. Okay, good. So tomorrow... That's huge.

While we're doing the program program high atop my garage, our trees, we're going to have six trees cut down during the show. So I hope the noise level will be okay. Cut all the way down? Yeah. Removed. Okay. Yeah.

Stumps grounded, grinded, ground, ground. Stumpfest. Down. Stumpfest. Down. Stumpfest, yeah. Anyway, why did I start talking about that? You were asking them what they make. I can't even remember why I was saying that, though. They're going to Vail.

No, I had a real good lead in. The problem with your neighborhood. Oh, the problem with our neighborhood. So, no, when we were getting tree estimates, you know, when you drive into my neighborhood, it was a really old neighborhood and you live in one. Yeah. But people will buy up the properties and then put a mansion where this old shack used to be. Yeah.

Now, I live in a, I would say, a medium home in our neighborhood because we do have the old shacks on my street. But then we have, like you've seen across the street from me, a builder just bought that old piece of property, and there's a huge mansion going up right across the street now. So when someone drives in to give us an estimate, they are saying, hmm, they're adding money to it right away. Of course. So because it's this neighborhood, we're going to ask for this amount of money. I would guess that you guys might do that with,

hey, if I'm going to Vail, Jack it up a bit. Not like if somebody in Nebraska invited us. They probably couldn't. Yeah, Vail, they're not going to blink at 20 grand. And it's more expensive to get there. And it's more expensive and all that kind of stuff. Sure.

I'll buy that. You've been in Vail recently. Yeah, last week. You guys want to have a little Vail talk? Sure. What's your favorite part? The snow?

We haven't been yet. The snow. Oh. Oh, okay. Did I tell you guys about the guys in my new neighborhood who are throwing

the baseball around? Mm-mm. We haven't talked about this, have we? Like father, son? I think they're twins. Okay. What?

What if I went out there and said, can you teach me to throw a baseball? How old are they? They look to be about 16. I think they would laugh at you. Yeah. You should roll on it. But what if I could learn to throw a baseball? From 16-year-old twins? Yeah. You should roll on it. But what if I could learn to throw a baseball? From 16-year-old twins?

Yeah. Like, you kind of have Dan and Blake here. We're not bad at the whole... Yeah, we can throw. You would both make fun of me to no end. I don't think so. Yeah, we're going to make fun of you to 16-year-olds. Both of them are just out there.

Every time I go get dinner, they're just out there firing into the mitt. I feel like that would harsh their buzz that they're getting, right? I don't know. It could be like a special thing. Like what if you were out playing catch with someone? Cuba Gooding Jr. radio type thing. Some old man from down the street is like, hey. Teach me how to throw, son.

Maybe? No. No? That would be weird. Okay. Just like the kid at Cane Rosa that just invaded into the father and son throwing the football. That was weird. No one likes a third person joining in. Okay.

You can't throw a triangle. They're in front of my house. Oh, that's right. That's right. The Cane Rosa. I know, but we felt bad for him because he was 11. Jake is 40. Yeah.

I'm just asking. Can I ask them to teach me to throw? I think you'd get mocked. Does it bother you to be called 40 when you're 38? No. I think it sounds kind of cool. Okay. It's not like it is with women.

I think a man being older is cool. There's a line, though. I mean, I'm going to die, obviously. But once you get to be 48, you are quick to say, I am not 50. Yeah, I could see that. I am definitely not 50. But gray hair doesn't bother me. Stuff like that.

Yeah. Jake was on The Freak yesterday. Oh, yeah? Radio station. Yeah. In Dallas. You guys can applaud. I don't care. Were we supposed to applaud for that? I'm just mentioning. In Dallas. You guys can applaud. I don't care.

Were we supposed to applaud for that? I'm just mentioning. You really don't have to. Dan, they do have applause that they can play. That you're on terrestrial radio yesterday. Your dream has been realized. That's right. Without me, for the most part.

Big part of it. But you couldn't resist. I had to call in because you guys were, I don't know, it seemed like you were struggling. Jeez. Seemed like you needed a little help, needed a little lifeline. And I thought it'd be fun.

And indeed, it was fun. I texted groups for their hotline, so I got the freak hotline now, if anybody wants it. Fantastic. I can be bought, as the prophets and outlaws know. That's our motto. One of our video guys, Clay, I was talking to him this morning.

In fact, because he's putting the finishing touches on a video which we will premiere this Saturday. Not only at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, but on YouTube. www.youtube.com

www.youtube.com slash the at symbol the dumb zone. And Clay said, you know what? He never plugged the YouTube stream

on The Freak. He had an opportunity, Jake did, to kind of build our numbers. And instead, you decided to kiss Dan's ass for 30 minutes. Okay. Well, he's my friend. You know, I'm sorry if I'm nice to a guy that I owe a lot to. Well, the message was clear. We needed subs.

I don't know if he really kissed my ass, but I do know that somebody put together a montage of Jake on The Freak yesterday. I don't know. Let's just see if Blake's correct or not. Let's take you back to yesterday. And we're best friends.

I know that sounds ridiculous, but we are very, very close. I feel like the person to me that I trust the most when it comes to programming is Dan. Dan is the type of person you can learn a lot about how to do your job from. So I just feel like me being linked up with Dan is, it's the best thing that's ever happened to me. I feel like Dane is like Jim Morrison of like ushering in a new sort of comedy to radio.

He's a savant. Like, I feel like he's so good at what he does that if I were to take programming instruction from anybody, it would be him. It's okay. It's okay. No, I love him, and I think he's radio like Teflon. That's how good I think he is. Maybe later, we'll all be gay No pause for that, guys?

That was incredible. I'm gonna vape. Mom? I wanna vape. I wanna vape. You guys familiar with that tune? Mom, I wanna vape It's incredible

It's a good tune Have you heard it before? Oh yeah Yeah I ironically told you it wasn't It's not Joe Walsh That must have been tough to search It's Frank Zappa

Got it Okay, well sorry that I am complimentary of my friends Sorry Oh, I'm sorry We put together a montage for you You queen Got it. Okay. Well, sorry that I am complimentary of my friends. Sorry. Oh, I'm sorry. We put together a montage for you. You queen. Must be horrible to hear.

So let's see here. Nobody's doing queen anymore. Just to their queen buddies. Anyway, what do you want to do first, Jake? We do have viewer mail. We have a variety of sports. I have a question for Jake first. Oh, great.

What happened this morning? What do you mean? In your automobile. Oh, yeah. I got pulled over. Whoa. Yeah. Yeah.

You? Yeah. I got my registration done like a month and a half ago, but I haven't put the sticker on. Jeez. It was like my bill and my daughter. This old buddy pulls me over. You got to do everything for him.

Right after I dropped a girl off at, thank you, at gym school, as we call it. I was just going to get gas, and he pulled me over. It's a weird moment, too. It's kind of like with athletes, when you realize you're older than them. Like when you see a cop. A cop's younger than you? Yeah.

That's emasculating. That's weird. He was probably late 20s. And he came up. But now he's an authority figure, and he's your boss right there. Big time. And he came up but now he's an authority figure and he's your boss right there big time and he has tattoos and he's ripped and he came up to the car window and I had the proper sticker

like in my hand and I was like dude I just haven't put it on and he's like oh why I was like I don't know man I'm just lazy and then it took like 20 minutes Why? Yeah. I was like, I don't know, man. I'm just lazy. And then it took like 20 minutes. And I'm like, do I have a fucking warrant or something?

So he went, he's like, all right, hold on a second. Goes back to the car, starts beep, beep, beep. Yeah. Beep, beep, beep. Maybe he just wanted to make your day a little longer. It felt like that. Have you calmed down with how you treat cops? Big time. Yeah, I was going to say. That's really the reason that- Usually for you, it's a,

I don't answer questions. No. Just get to it. You know what it was? He asked me a question and I felt like I had a slight sympathy play. So I was like, oh oh I just dropped my daughter off at a therapy for autism okay and he was like sir I'm sorry just put it on he's like I'll be right back okay so not put it on right there like get out of the car no but I mean he was like just put it on there it's fine you don't have to get out no but why didn't you just take off then? He was behind me. But he also did ask me, like, where are you going? And I was like, oh, well, my daughter. What? Is that a question for 9.45 in the morning?

8.45. It was weird. Aren't you going to work like everyone else? For sure. It was strange. But I did play along, which means I'm a change of man. That's great, man. Thank you. Thank you, keyboard

man. Do you think that attitude was better than your previous attitude towards officers? Definitely. Do you think it worked better? I used to say... Where are you going? They say, where are you going? Why if they say where are you going?

Why is that your business? You would literally say that. Jesus Christ. Like that will never get you out of a ticket. I bet cops love that. I'm positive they like it. Keep going. License and registration?

They're right here. So does he yeah how do they respond to that's not your business? Sir you're going 70 in a 55? Where are you headed this morning? I miss a sign. I'm taking my daughter to school.

Now that feels like white privilege to be able to say that to a cop. Without a doubt. And have them not rip you out of the car? Yeah. Without a doubt. Yeah. Yeah. But you knew your law.

You knew the laws. You knew your rights. There's no law that says I have to answer this question. That's right. And you're high full of tea. And you're like, I just want to spew some of this tea somewhere. Right. It's got to go somewhere.

Damn. But not today. I'm a changed man. See? And isn't, is life better like that? I feel like- You went ahead. You jogged.

You tried. You got out of it. He didn't give you a ticket. No, but you know what? They actually wrote like a printed warning. I thought that was weird. Yeah.

So you're in the system. Yeah. That's cute. Yeah. That's not the first warning you've got. But it was weird. Not the first thing

authority has put in his file. No, definitely not. But it was weird that he was younger than me. Like I could just see it in his face. No, definitely not. But it was weird that he was younger than me. Yeah. Like, I could just see it in his face. Like, he's probably late, mid to late 20s.

I'm like, dude, I'm old. Yeah. Little fella. It happens to, uh, to all of us. And there were two of them, too. That was weird.

Two cops? Yeah. Like, one of them was at, like, my driver's side rear tire. Do you feel like this is the... Oh, like he got out of the car? They both did.

Huh. Did you feel a little dangerous? Do you feel like this is... Like Grapevine needs bigger crime? Definitely. Like you got two cops. Is there a cat somewhere? You know?

Well, now imagine him pulling you out of the car, searching your car, and say, well, sir, there's murder, and then there's liquid THC. So I hope there's nothing in that in the car. You ever been pulled over? No, no, I'm just, unrelated story. It's a hypothetical.

Never happened, ever. All right, so on the plate, Jake. Sure. Dealer's choice, Jake NBA, Baseball Blake, Belichick Dan. Let's just call it that. Is that what it is? We each have our three sports items we want to get into today. And then off the sports page, we, of course, have Viewer Mail.

And I think that's kind of about it besides your news. Let's do some Viewer Mail right now. Okay. I don't know how to lead into it, though. I mean, is there any way? I don't think it's possible. Oh, yeah. Wait a minute, Uncle Hotmail.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, Uncle Hotmail. Uncle Hotmail, look at me. Is there any mail in your box for me? Gross Amazing. Dude. Can we do every show here? I could start with some birthdays. Okay.

Which would have... Do we like a music bed? Do you guys want to do a music bed? He's got you. Okay. I don't have to use any of my music beds today? This is like Fox 4. Let's see. You got some wind chimes?

My boyfriend Alex Castro listens to you religiously. He's 35 April 18th. That's today. You're good. He has not so casually mentioned how you guys do birthday shout-outs to me twice now. I don't really listen to the show, but I hear clips.

His favorite one to brag about is when he sent you guys a gift and you gave him a shout-out. So for his birthday, will you do the same thing? Allie Schmidt. Then she says, thanks for keeping him entertained when he's not listening to me. Let me tell you a little something, Allie.

Even when he appears to be listening to you. No chance. He is not listening to you. No. So that's Alex Castro. Alex and Allie. Isn't that cute? Very. Yeah. I bet she thinks it is. She's like, yeah, whatever. Fuhrer Dan, Matt and Phoenixie. Isn't that cute? Very. Yeah. I bet she thinks it is. She's like, yeah, whatever. Fuhrer Dan, Matt and Phoenix here.

Number 2020. Hashtag team COVID. Oh, his DF number is number 2020, so he's team COVID. All right. That makes sense. Does it? Yeah. COVID, remember?

Remember 2020? 2020 is when COVID came out. Yeah, okay. When COVID dropped. My best friend Quigs is celebrating his Pat Tillman birthday. Hmm, 47, Blake? What do you think? What do you guys know?

His leaders are Mouth Braces Dan, Frederick Douglas Jake, and the seldom heard Heart Attack Man, 40. There's just the right amount of Blake. Let's see. That is from Matt in Phoenix. He says, also, may I jump on a Reddit idea of you guys doing a sort of a summer celebration or a camping trip?

And invite some former coworkers and friends, perhaps. Just an idea. Do you know what that's about? I've seen that. Like, Reddit's going crazy wanting you guys to do a camp out or something like that. Like a camp out. Did the Ticket recently announce that they're doing their camp out? I think Reddit just wants you to have fun.

Yeah, we want to have fun, too. What if we just glommed on and went to Vail with the boys Vail's a good time sure sounds like fun to just call them up and be like hey

actually there's an extra we got to throw a little extra something to get us there we have people up there we have a ton of people in Colorado yeah Matt and Phoenix that's his thing his birthday Dan To get us there. We have people up there. We have a ton of people in Colorado.

Yeah. Matt in Phoenix. That's his thing. His birthday. Dan, Jake, and Blake in no particular order. My best friend, Alex Castro. Oh, we already got this guy, right? This guy's popular. Good Lord.

Yeah, that's from Byron. So the girlfriend beat you to it. Let's see. Yesterday was my friend Adam's birthday, DF number 528. It was his Zaza Pachulia birthday. No idea. His leader is TC's dentist. Oh, a veteran.

This is from former bad radio intern and weekend board op, Josh. Kerber? I believe so. Good dude. Let's see oh he made it through my filter of uh trying to not just hire white kids now we have non-birthday or uh non-birthday i was producer non-birthday viewer mail does anybody have some non-birthday viewer mail before i fire into it i have one okay is it like an ender? I don't know if it's an ender,

but we were talking about taxes, and you were talking about your daughter's working and filing taxes and that sort of thing, and P1Vincent I'll call him P1 He sent me this screenshot from TurboTax where they actually

ask you when you are filing, is your spouse under 16? Whoa. Oh, my. So, yeah. This would lead me to believe that there are places where that's a thing. In the United States. Yeah.

Whereas TurboTax might be everywhere, right? It says U.S. TurboTax, Thailand. Roll Tide. Do you get a tax break? Yeah, is that good or no? Dependent? Or is this just a dumb test

and then they knock on your door? Yeah, like Chris Hansen. It's a setup. Yeah. Hmm. I mean, Indiana Jones also, right? What's that? Indiana Jones, right? Yeah, like Chris Hansen. It's a setup. Yeah. Hmm. I thought that was strange. Indiana Jones also, right?

What's that? Indiana Jones, right? Oh, man. Didn't he like marry a 14-year-old? Dan? Well, that would be a Kemp spin, right? He married Ally McBeal. What, the character or the actor?

The character. Oh. Oh, the character or the actor? The character. Oh. Oh, the character? Oh. I don't know what you're talking about at all. Anyway. I mean, if he filed his taxes, he would have to check that box then.

He would. He would. Let's look. Day one, DF number 87 here, hoping for some clarification on the timeline. You can bounce back. I believe in you.

Yeah, that was rough. Clarification on the timeline of events for your Alamo Drafthouse 420 event. Does the movie start at 420? Blah, blah, blah. What's the arrival time? No.

So, Saturday, at 420, so on 420, it's April 20th, at 420 we will start a live stream. And it will be at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, our first ever live stream public event. Right? Because we've live streamed from the den before. So then we're going to do a show for about an hour-ish. Like we always say.

It'll probably go long, but I'm hoping it does not go long so that we can get the movie started at least by six at the latest, and then we can get everybody out of there by eight and go home and just do some hardcore doing it and stuff. That's what I'll be doing. Sure.

So, yeah. So, again, you can kind of show up. I's what I'll be doing. Sure. So, yeah. So, again, you can kind of show up. I think doors will open around four-ish and then you can just show up and get in there and get yourself ready

for the live stream and all that kind of stuff. That's from Cristobal. Also, we had another idea. People are always sending us ideas. Money-making ideas,

for sure. Oh, great. Any chance the day one subscribers could have the opportunity to purchase a brick or something similar with our name on it for any potential studio, Cleveland Stadium style, like I used to have a brick outside Jacobs Field. That's a great idea. It is. All right. Mark that down, Blake. Okay.

Because I'm going to throw this thing away. Hey, put the camera on that guy. He looks like Boban if Boban wasn't that big. Okay. Is that a compliment? I think so. Am I wrong? We need to check the size of his ears real quick.

Doesn't that guy look like Boban? Now there is a resemblance now that you say it. 100%. Well, I don't want to look at him and make him feel nervous. You have to squint. But yeah. He's just like right in my line of sight. That's what's been distracting you for the past few minutes?

Yeah, kind of. A little bit. Let's see here. Talk about Boban again for a second. John Wick movie to get to. I think we have a female offshoot coming out soon.

Do we not? That sounds woke. Yeah, probably. Ghostbusters. Like female Ghostbusters, yeah. Mind fewer, I don't think Blake's voice sounds gay,

but it does sound like he missed puberty. This might explain why he's such a little bitch. Then he says, more Blake from Trevor. How to make sense of that. That was quite a

wild ride there. But he likes you in the end. Cool. Thanks. He likes gay voices. Dear Leader, I said it wasn't gay. Please don't play that des nft audio ever again i usually really love cringeworthy audio like that but that one makes me sad i can't listen to it

i think it's the first time i've ever fast forwarded through part of the show from michael busher um and i have trouble remembering things sometimes. I'm quite old. And so I think this was, I think he's referring to, Blake had put together a different montage of Jerry talking NFTs and Dez talking NFTs, right? Is that what this is? Or crypto or something? I don't really remember what this guy is talking about,

so let me hit this here, because we won't play it again for sure. 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 um how you monetize and how you do that is um um what you do is um you know i'm apologizing i'm kind of nervous you know um you know i apologize i apologize i'm kind of nervous you know um blockchain com

named after the very essence of what it is to begin with well you know it can be an initiative anything you know um like i said um it can be um whatever you like like for example um um it can be memorabilia you know you can tie in you can tie memorabilia to nfts i'm just giving you small examples of you know how big this could be you know and um yeah am i gonna buy my cryptocurrency through blockchain com you bet i am and i want to encourage millions and millions of people to do the same thing and um you know yeah you know like i said you know i'm kind of nervous i feel like i'm put on spot but um yeah i don't know if des understands the meaning of put on the spot yeah not when hey we've set this interview up weeks ago. Yeah, there are 20 production assistants in your home.

It's called a softball interview. You're trying to plug your NFTs. They're asking you, so what are NFTs? Don't put them on the spot. You were lost at that moment. Yeah. That is today's viewer mail. So we'll give a little...

I'm asking for applause. I can tell. Hello, Parker. We're in Parker. Am I allowed to say that? I think so. Okay, yeah. All right, let's go now to NBA.

Got to open for that? Yep. Or is this just sports in general? Oh, no. This is NBA. Okay. That's absolutely fantastic. I love it.

I absolutely love it. So I was very wrong about the tip time for Sunday. How about that? I've been wrong a lot. We just assumed it was in LA, so it would be at 9 o'clock. Yeah, it's going to be a 2.30 tip. That's a 12.30 Clippers tip. Okay.

Do you guys remember what happened one time before Christmas whenever the Mavericks and the Clippers played on a Sunday before 1 o'clock? Yes. Is this the one that the Mavs beat them by like 40? They scored like 80 points in the first half. Okay. It was 86-26? I think so.

Something like that. Yeah. But then I remember us thinking that, and then game seven. Yeah. Was another mid-afternoon game in the Clippers one. It was a real mid-afternoon game. Anyways, we've got a, yeah, I got it, 2.30 tip Sunday.

Okay, that's good. It's very good. It's very good that it's not Saturday while we're doing the live stream event. Yeah. On www.youtube.com. And, yeah. And we don't have to stay up until 1 in the morning. That's right. Do we know broadcasters yet? It's ABC. It's not Jeff Van Gundy.

So it's probably going to be Mike Breen. I would imagine. Okay. Love him. And if I saw right, games two and three are on Bally's? Yes. And only on Bally's? Believe so. So we can't watch it? Well,

I mean, I bought you a ticket. Okay. So I'll see game three in person. That's correct. But game two? Sorry, Dan. That's correct. But Game 2? Sorry, Dan. That's all right. Yeah, that seems weird. That kind of sucks, right? I think, I mean, do you mean Game 3 and 4?

Game 2 of Home. I thought Games 2 and 3 of the series were on Bally's. Game 2 is on TNT. Okay, good. Yeah. So Games 3 and 4? I believe so, yeah. Yeah, that does kind of So games three and four? I believe so. Yeah. Yeah, that does kind of suck.

It does. For much of the fan base. You know, it might be on ESPN. I don't know. I don't feel like there's any first round games that are exclusive to cable, but I could be wrong about that. I don't know. Yeah, I don't remember.

Either way, I'm super, super fired up. It's going to be so great. To see the boy actually get to take over. The boy Luka? Yeah. Like this is his time. Oh, yeah. Yeah, no, expectations are high.

We've talked about it. I think it'll be a big disappointment if they don't advance at least one round. I would agree. But he doesn't have to go off like that anymore, right? No. Because he used to have to score 40 for the Mavs to be in it, at least through the first two Clippers series. But now, I don't know, maybe he doesn't have to do that.

Maybe he doesn't have to get his worn down. Yeah, and there's also the fact that, like I've said before, I feel like this is the freshest he's looked late in a season ever. And that is in no small part due to the fact that Kyrie carries 40% of the load. I don't know. I feel like we're about to see something that you've never seen from a Dallas Mavericks team before. They ISO teams in the playoffs.

They can do that, and they can defend. And I don't even think Denver wants a piece of that. Just as far as being fresh, the way you feel during a game, too. Of course. Because usually, I mean, he's the guy that would have to carry. You know, they have two guys that can consistently score. Yes. And Kyrie doesn't really do a lot of that in the first half.

Lays back. So, Luka does kind of have to carry everything during first halves, but now he used to have to – well, he also has to do everything in the fourth quarter, and Kyrie's actually great at that. Yeah. And so, yeah, if you were going to choose one to have to just be 50% of, that's what you would do. That's the way you would set this up.

For sure. Like if Kyrie wasn't a clutch player, but he is. Because that's when you win your games. Yeah, I mean, again, it was great having Jalen Brunson and Spencer Dinwiddie. But I would take Kyrie by himself over having both of them. Yeah. No, it is great. It's very exciting.

Yeah, so my other NBA note was, we've talked about this a little bit over the last couple weeks, but Jonte Porter of the Toronto Raptors has been banned for life by Adam Silver. So is this the guy that there was weird betting? Really weird. On his over-unders, and he's like not some real hugely well-known player. No, he was splitting time between Toronto and the G League.

Whatever their team is called. It's like Toronto 905 or Raptors 905 or something like that. But he was betting his own unders. And it wouldn't be like this egregious thing, but it would be like he'd go out with an injury, quote injury. Correct, like four minutes into the game. Yeah, and he'd guarantee to hit the under. Yeah, so—

What was he making? $450. Okay. So not like a crazy amount. Like the minimum of the NBA. Yeah. Okay. So when certain books saw like

$80,000 prop bets come in, that's what instigated the investigation from the NBA. He was letting bookies know whenever he was going to

fake an injury. He was bricking threes on purpose. And he got caught. Good dude. Yeah. Yeah.

So lifetime bet. Excuse me. Lifetime ban. Pete Rose, obviously, like the name that comes up. But Pete Rose never bet on the Reds to lose. John T. Porter was betting on the Raptors to lose a lot. I see this on Twitter. Don't know if it's true.

Three of the bets were bets that included one, that included one Raptors game in which Porter bet that the Raptors would lose. All three of those bets lost. Correct. So they actually won those games.

Yeah. He screwed up a couple times. He couldn't affect it enough to make them lose. Yeah. Which also makes me wonder if this were a player of some note,

do they ban him for life? Because it's very convenient that it's this guy to send the message to the NBA. I don't know, but I do think the message has been sent, though. Like, that we will literally strip you from a check forever. Yeah, that seems unpr...

Although, I guess they used to do it for drugs and whatnot. They did it to O.J. Mayo. O.J. Mayo? Yeah. For what? Drugs. Really? Yeah.

Banned for life? I don't know if it was banned for life or if it was banned for three years and it's essentially like it was his prime. Okay, I know. Wait, who's the guy here? I just lost his name. Roy Tarpley. Yeah. Was banned for life but actually got reinstated.

Yeah. So funny enough, I didn't realize that John T. Porter was Michael Porter Jr.'s brother. Oh, is that real? Yeah. So, Michael Porter Jr. was recently,

he has a podcast. Who doesn't? And he had a porn star on with him named Lana Rhodes. I'm going to ask the entire band to stay to themselves and not react to that. And he started talking to her about... Oh, okay, we have a...

I mean, I thought we've all missed it for so long. He started talking to her about the kinks of NBA players. So she's out of the game. This is typically how this happens. They do like three months of porn, and then they're like, I'm an advocate now. And she's really, really smart. Advocate of what? For women's rights.

Okay. I think she did more than three months. She might have. Blake, it sounds like you know. I'm going to leave it to you. A couple years ago, she was trying to date Kevin Durant. And she has Blake Griffin's baby. Yeah, it sounds like you know. I'm going to leave it to you. A couple years ago she was trying to date Kevin Durant. And she has Blake Griffin's baby. Yeah, that's right.

Yeah. She's been passed around. Jeez, bro. It was a basketball analogy. I meant it as a basketball. So she was on... Oh, jeez. She was on John Tate Porter's brother, Michael Porter Jr.'s podcast.

And I wanted you to hear this. Which I've seen this with celebrity men, too, that have hooked up with a lot of girls. They get so numb to just regular sex or just women that they end up having these really intense fetishes because they can't get off to normal things anymore. I've met guys who like being peed on, who buy cookies with poop in them. Okay, you know, we're going to listen to the rest of this. And they say romance is dead.

Certainly heard of number one. As it were. No pun intended, yeah. Have not ever contemplated. So like a cookie. Yeah, I got a sweet tooth. Is baked. And there's poop in that.

Yeah. Like a pot cookie, but it's not pot. It's not pot. It's a poop cookie. Yeah. There's corn in this It's not pot. It's a poop cookie. Yeah. Is there corn in this? Gross. Yeah. The nuts. The almonds.

Buy cookies with poop in them off the internet and watch guys pooping. Wait a second. Wait a second. Back it up. Let's hear what she says. Buy cookies. Go ahead. Guys who like being peed on who buy cookies with poop in them off the internet and watch girls pooping.

Honestly, I know what you're talking about. I think what she said was watch guys pooping. The third thing is, yeah, watch girls pooping or guys. Guys, yeah. And that's important. Honestly, I know what you're talking about because even in the NBA, like you talk about and this is why i think uh like porn is dangerous but also hooking up with too many people and

because you get desensitized to the to the normal thing and this happens in the nba like i hear i hear wild stories about some of these dudes but like you said oh trust me other celebrities too that their fetishes get so crazy you know they might be a straight a straight man but they've done so much stuff with so many pretty girls they have so much access to pretty girls that you know now they're over here messing with trannies or now they're over here or now they're over here messing with dudes and it's like yeah uh the term tranny not exactly acceptable anymore oh come on let's slow down well i'm just saying like as far as the response to this like he got i'm like hey i feel like you're missing the poop cookie so yeah we're dragging him because he said tranny yeah that's

not the highlight all right yeah let's uh yeah so anyways that's what's going on with the Porter family. Wow. Jonte's band, MPJ, is discussing poop cookies with Lana Rhodes. And there's today's NBA. I don't know if they have something ready for everything. There you go. That's perfect. Let's slide over to baseball Blake.

How do I follow poop cookies? Okay. Well, we can slide over to Belichick if you want. If you're not up for the challenge. And ladies and gentlemen, time for Blake. Oh, I thought you were going to play a little something. Sports ball. Fantastic. I don't think y'all played this while I was gone,

but this made waves because it centers Angel Hernandez. He's good. Very good. I saw someone say the other day, the worst part about it is being pro-union. You know what? Yeah. But then you're like,

boy, Angel Hernandez should not have a job. Like somehow he is so protected by the MLB umpires union. That's like the Larry David meme, I think. In fact, I was telling Blake this morning, just for an unrelated thing, I was kind of booking Brunig for next week. Yeah. I feel like this will be a good one

for Brunig to handle. Sure. You know? Yeah. I do love the meme going around next week yeah I feel like this will be a good one for Bruning to handle sure you know yeah I do love the meme going around of like 20 missed calls on your phone and they're all from Angel Hernandez so how can you be so bad that just everyone knows like that's that is the it's it's the uh the term for you know for bad umpire. Casual fans know who Angel Hernandez is. You can barely watch baseball at all, and you know Angel Hernandez. Yeah, and I saw on Twitter that day that Angel Hernandez was going to be the behind-the-plate umpire for Rangers and Astros.

And we see him so much on clips and Twitter missing calls that you don't think it's going to happen to you, but it did. And it happened to Wyatt Langford and he's up to bat and coming out of college, like he has a really good eye. I think him and Evan Carter swing at the least amount of balls or something like that, which is impressive for their age. So Hernandez is behind the plate and it's three balls egregiously outside that he calls strike in a row. Wyatt doesn't swing at any of them. He does a good job of just walking back to the dugout, but our good, good friend, Dave Raymond on the call, he kills it. And so here's Dave Raymond.

I think it's Dave Valley with him. And Dave is hilarious here. Whoa. First ball way outside, called a strike. Wow. Angel, come on now. Yeah, this is a shame right here. This pitch is well off the plate.

Oh, man. A little slider. 2-1. Man, oh, my goodness. Well, heck, France could finish this game for Houston if he's going to get these calls. What in the world? My goodness. Are we trying?

Come on, now. That should have been ball four 2-2 You have got to be kidding me What in the world We've just completely lost it here This is just bad. So then they go on, but I don't know. I love it.

I love it. Because you try to play the balance of, you know, you're kind of diplomatic in your call. You don't want to be a homer. But when you see something like that, you just let it fly. I love it. Yeah, and it's great, too, now that we have the umpire Twitter account, right? The scorecard?

Yeah, the scorecard. That's brilliant. Yeah. And it just matches it all up to pitch, track, or whatever. Yeah, even on the MLB app. I mean, the live-by-live, here's where the pitch is, and people can just screenshot that. Yeah.

And so they close out the inning pretty funny. By the way, Jack White is getting rocked. Already? Oh, my God. Well, Wyatt Langford is a better man than me. I thought you had a fastball. Still keeping his cool. Never even looked back at the umpire on any of those calls.

He's like, all I can think about now, it's 8-1 Rangers. The 0-2. And that is strike three called, and you better believe it. That's awesome. He's so cool. That's awesome. Yeah, like you say, you don't think it'll happen to you. I also don't think it's not that bad. Because of Twitter, you're like, okay, every one mistake will be amplified because now everybody sees it and retweets it and it's like I'm – but yeah, that was like all in one at bat.

Three pitches in a row. Yeah. Yeah, for some reason, I guess just the Rangers carry that where you see a broadcaster, you know, maybe play favorites, and you think, ah, that's not a big deal. But then John Smoltz, like, loves the Orioles and hates the Rangers. I don't know, just these big things that just, this would never happen to my team.

But then now your team is on Twitter being shared around on awful announcing or wherever of Angel Hernandez blowing these calls. Yeah, not to like alibi for Angel Hernandez at all, but I think it's absolutely insane that we think that the human mind can dissect that in real time. I think that basically about every single officiating job, right? Like the field hasn't gotten bigger. The court hasn't gotten bigger. court hasn't gotten bigger you have faster players who are bigger who either hit harder run faster throw harder i don't know it doesn't it doesn't make any sense to expect like a human being to be able to stand behind the catcher and properly

execute a ball and strike call yeah and it's also very difficult for a human being to hit 100-mile-an-hour pitches or curveballs. Yeah, but they make like 40 times more because they're unique individuals. What I want to say, though, is there are hundreds of human beings trying to do that, hit the baseball, and there are some that are really good at it. They hit it 35% of the time, right? So they hit 350, but there are some, they hit it 18% of the time, and those people, well, they will just not be in the game anymore. Yeah, that's true.

And so if indeed there is one umpire that's the outlier, because they kind of show those stats at the end of the year when this guy is missing by far the most amount of calls, so clearly there has to be somebody trying to get into the majors who could actually call balls and strikes better. I guess I don't know the ins and outs of the union contract. Because clearly, baseball players are in a union. But you can still cut a baseball player.

How come you can't judge an umpire's... Yeah, I don't know. Performance? Because I agree with you. How come you can't judge an umpire's, you know? Yeah, I don't know. Performance? Because I agree with you. It's very difficult. The bang-bang plays, and that's kind of why I think you need replay. Especially, you know, going to first,

you're trying to watch three things. The guy catch it, and the foot down there and all that. Yeah. Yeah. It's shocking. But how about Dave Raymond? Dave Raymond. The great Dave Raymond.

Throw up 6-4, though, Blake. Okay. Still in line for the win. Lighter's getting rocked. Hopefully. Well, it's not totally rocked. Only four in how many? Two innings.

Oh, okay. Oh, jeez. Okay. I'd say that's... Would be a high. Oh, okay. Well, that's... Okay. I'd say that's... Would be a high ERA then. How's his change-up look? I don't know yet. I don't know it. Yeah.

All right. Time to drain the main vein. Do we have anything for that? No? Matt? What are we doing? No, no, no. We'll just go to break what's he about it's like if i saw an oj i'd be like i love what a comeback he's lived a full life people like i've done it all no you haven you haven't. Heisman. Have you?

Heisman. Cut someone's head off. Decapitated his wife and her boy. Got away with it. Got away with it. Walked. Went back to jail. He's the healthiest person on Twitter.

He's out golfing. How is he the most well-adjusted person? You're listening to The Dumb Zone. You're listening to The Dumb Zone. Give me one of these. The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone.

The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone. No puppet! That's right. Here we are. The home of Profit and Outlaws.

The studio home. Profits and Outlaws. Well, I don't know. Matt was kind of indicating he feels he's the only prophet. We might be changing it. I don't know. Yeah. We're wearing sweatshirts.

A little chilly in here, but I suppose that's for the equipment. It should be warmer in here for the equipment, honestly. No, but this gear creates a lot of heat. It can get hot when you have everything on. So you've got to keep it cool. Okay, pretty new house, right? Just a few years old. Still getting the hang of the AC and the HVAC.

Dumb question. Quaint. I'm going to do it, though. I did it Monday. Okay. Generator? No generator. And I wanted one because of you.

No generator. No generator. All that you have here. I know. You have a golf simulator. And no generator. We have a generator in the family. And so if things go down, I guess we have a place to go, but it's not here.

Wow, that's really surprising. It is. What's the thought process there? I know the one that we have in the family, there's trouble with it, and occasionally they have to replace it or fix it, and it's a big deal. How would you even know? Right. Because you never have to use a generator. The only time you know if there's trouble.

That's true, and that's a bad time to find out it's broken.. The only time you know if there's trouble. That's true. And that's a bad time to find out it's broken. Is if I'm at Cash Soroy's house, as I was during the big freeze. You know what? So I forgot. Blake sent me this a little while ago. Okay. And I thought you'd be really interested in this.

Okay. This is a piece of audio. I was just talking to you guys out there about audio of my daughters. We don't like to play a lot of audio from our family. But when we do, we think it's worthy. So this is little Brooks. Oh, you're going to play this? Playing outside.

Yeah. On a trampoline? From what I understand? Yeah, I sent you the video. So how old is Brooks? Two? Two and a half. Okay.

And it was a very dejected video that Blake sent me. A dejected text where he said, you won. I go, what does that mean? Well, let me watch the video. Here we go. Say dude perfect. You're doing dude perfect? He's jumping on the trampoline.

What are you doing? What are you doing? Dude perfect. No, you're not. I'm like jumping. not. I'm jumping. Ouch. I have more. Say do perfect.

That hurts. That really hurts. That's what he thinks of with jumping. If you're jumping around, it must be dude perfect. Yeah. They invented. And it's all because of that dumb book you got him. You just saw it in his room. Bedtime stories or whatever?

What do you want to read? Dude Perfect. No. Dude Perfect! Dude Perfect! No. Dude Perfect! You can't read Dude Perfect.

Dude Perfect! No! Dude Perfect! Dude Perfect! perfect. Do perfect. No. Do perfect. Do perfect. Do perfect. Let me do perfect. No. Why don't you let him love

Kobe and Cody and Kobe and Kobe and Cody? This kid might make you millions, dude. That's a great leader to have. This is also transcending generations because I sat watching, you know, stereotype videos, the Dude Perfect comedy series. Dude, have you seen the Pick Up Basketball one?

I think it's actually very funny. Pick Up Basketball stereotypes? I think the stereotypes on softball is funny. The stereotypes on restaurants are funny. In fact, we'll often reference it when we go to a restaurant. They're so good. When you go to a restaurant and there's like a half an inch that you've drinking out of your water

and they come over to give you more water, like they did that. Yeah. And it's real funny. Super funny. Because everyone can relate to it. I know. That's what's so great about it.

Or like when they go to a really expensive restaurant and then it's like you just get a really small portion. Yeah, because we've all done that. Then Dude Perfect was like, well, I ordered the shrimp salad. And he's like, yeah, shrimp. One shrimp. Yeah.

You didn't order the shrimp's salad. Then we're both laughing and everything because it's so funny. It's really good. Then we're doing a little pound it noggin at the end of the video. Love noggin. Yeah. The book is worse.

It can't be. It's just all of that in word form. It can't be. You know what? I'd like to see the book. Actually, it can be. I never looked at the book. It's exactly what you think it is.

Do you think there should be an audio version with Cody? An audio book? Let's make one. That would be what a comedy podcast would do. You've ruined my life. And I believe the unique blend of chemistry and conflict is what we have going here. That's what you're viewing. But also recreation.

And listening to. Time now for football. Oh. Sports ball? Sports, yeah, whatever. Sports ball. Heck yeah. I like it a lot.

So Jake turned me on to this this morning. He's like, hey, did you see the Belichick article? I got excited. Oh. Belichick article? I'm all in. As you know, just the other day, right? Last show, I think, I did a review of that Belichick book.

Correct. Yeah. And I still can't believe that entire fat book is all before Brady. Well, I mean, he had like 25 years before that. Seven Super Bowl wins or whatever, yeah. No, no, no, pre-Brady. No, it's pre-Brady leaving. Yeah, yeah.

Oh, okay, okay. I think you misstated it. Did I? You did, but it's okay. You said before Brady. It's not theBrady leaving. Yeah, yeah. Oh, okay, okay. I think you misstated it. Did I? You did, but it's okay. You said before Brady. It's not the post-script. Before the Brady breakup. Yeah, there's no...

Oh, okay, okay, okay. Yeah, there's doing the Atlanta Super Bowl, all that kind of stuff, but there's not Brady leaving and then Brady... Because the big thought is Belichick versus Brady. Yeah, okay. And so I kind of think we need a couple more years. I still think there's like 25 years of his career that has nothing to doick versus Brady. Yeah, okay. And so I kind of think I misunderstood. we need a couple more years. I still think there's like 25 years of his career

that has nothing to do with Tom Brady. Okay. Yeah, yeah. I'm so sorry if I No, and in going back and remembering what you talked about

in the book, I should have known that. Okay, yeah. No, it's pre-Brady leaving. I think it was right before Brady left. Yeah. Anyway, so like I said,

I got excited when Jake told me there's a Belichick article because you guys know I like me some Belichick. But it's Tiger, Tyson, Belichick, LeBron. Yeah, that's his Mount Rushmore. Yeah, that's pretty much it. I don't know. Things that are really, really great. Am I weird?

Look at this weird guy who likes LeBron. As he pulls out his LeBron jersey. I have my Lakers jersey on today. That's right. Did MJ ever win a play-in tournament game? Absolutely not. Anyway. Think about it, Blake.

I'm excited because there's a Belichick article, and then Jake says, written by Don Van Natta. Ooh. And if I've learned anything about Don Van Natta over the last few years, it's that he's not doing any kind of a puff piece just to tell me how great Bill Belichick is. And it's actually called, what is it called? Voted Off the Island, Inside Bill belichick's failed job hunt and so

it's basically about of course you know him parting ways with new england this offseason and then the many many options that we kind of thought he had you got your Chargers. You've got the Titans. You've got, I don't know. The other big one, of course, was Atlanta. I think a lot of people thought the Chargers would be a great one because they do have a young quarterback in place, and they're in a situation there where they're kind of the little brother in L.A. And that would kind of give everybody a little bit of attention towards the L.A. Chargers. And Bill Belichick could get that record.

He's 15 wins shy, I think, of Don Shula right now. So that would take him a couple years, certainly, with an established quarterback in place, you would think. And also, the Chargers have been thought of the past few years to be an underperforming roster. They've got a really good group of guys there, but they just need a guy like Belichick who can get the best out of a really good roster.

In fact, the last couple years, you would say, if you have a criticism about Bill Belichick, it's kind of been their drafting and the front office work. But still, as a coach, you kind of think he's second to none. So I was a little surprised, but apparently the article at least says they had their eyes on Harbaugh the whole way. They were going Jim Harbaugh. The Chargers.

Yes. Yeah. The Cowboys were also mentioned as possibility. It says here in the Don Van Netta article, on paper the Cowboys seem to make sense. Belichick and Jerry Jones are decades-long friends. Both are in win-now mode. Nobody is better than Belichick at converting a talented roster into a championship team,

and Belichick told a friend he liked the idea of sticking it to the crafts by working for Jones. But Jerry Jones, for all his flash, bluster, and vows this offseason to go all-in, is change-averse when it comes to head coaches. He decided quickly after Dallas' blowout exit in the wildcard round to let Mike McCarthy coach the final year of his contract. I don't, I mean, Jerry is whatever Jerry is now. So now we call him change-averse because he stuck with Jason Garrett for a decade. Yep. And because, despite a lot of media yelling

that Mike McCarthy is about to be out of here, he sticks with Mike McCarthy. I don't think it's so much that, as I, this is my opinion, I think that he still is desperate to win a Super Bowl but if he were to hire Bill Belichick and they did get over the hump this year and they won the Super Bowl that would be Jerry still couldn't win the Super Bowl. Yeah. Because he can do so much, but he didn't win those first ones. That was all Jimmy.

And he did swallow his pride to hire Bill Parcells, but he's kind of got control back. And there's no question who is the bottom line in control with the Cowboys now, In his mind, at least. Yeah, McCarthy's kind of like a happy middle ground. Between a Garrett and a Belichick or a Jimmy Johnson. Lincoln Riley. You know?

Yeah. Like, he's right in between, I'm okay with this, however it goes. I'm not going to take too much credit. And also, you don't have to take that much of a leap of faith to hire me. He's used to working with a strong front office in Green Bay, and he's happy to do it here. Sure. Ted McCarthy.

Whereas Bill Belichick, that's another thing throughout this article is – He does mention Jerry multiple times, though. But, no, I got more Jerry, but a lot of things throughout the article is one or the other. You know, I guess the Eagles also kicked the tires on it, at least had internal discussions. That was surprising to me. According to Don Van Etta. Just because Sirianni has had some pretty good success in his short time there.

Tremendous success. I mean, they're a half away from a Super Bowl win. They were 26-5 over a certain 31-game stretch. It seems like he just zeroed in on the NFC East because they just mentioned the Redskins, commanders, Giants, Eagles, and Cowboys.

Well, yeah, I don't know what the Eagles tie in, but there does seem to be ties everywhere else. I think it's probably just that Belichick knows owners more than probably most head coach candidates do, and he's just friends with them. He's friends with Jeffrey Lurie. He's friends with Jerry Jones.

He's friends with the Maras. But I thought the Arthur Blank thing was really interesting, that Arthur Blank basically torpedoed his Atlanta candidacy. Like that he just called Arthur Blank, or excuse me, Robert Kraft, called Arthur Blank and was just like, you don't want this guy. He's going to be difficult. Yeah, so it says... That's crazy.

It says one source close to Belichick said Kraft, the guy who... Look, Belichick took over the Patriots, and I guess Parcells had turned them from not so much a laughingstock, but they're just the Patriots. It's just team. It's some team that...

I don't know. They were not on the map. Right. They were not the most valuable franchise or one of them in the NFL at the time. But because of Bill Belichick, they became that. You know, and how many Super Bowls does a guy have to win before you kind of say, yeah, we kind of owe him everything. Like Dirk, we're going to let him be on the roster as long as he wants to,

you know, because he's Dirk, we're going to let him be on the roster as long as he wants to. You know, because he's Dirk. And Bill Belichick, you kind of almost think, all right, well, I'll let you keep coaching, but no. Yes, so one source says, close to Belichick, says, Kraft was a big part of why the Falcons passed on hiring him. Now, see if we can keep all these sources straight. Hmm. Because we're doing a lot of Kevin Bacon game here.

The source said, Kraft made clear to Blank that you'll never have a warm conversation with Belichick, echoing what Parcells told Kraft in 1996 when he wanted to bust the budget and hire Belichick. what Parcells told Kraft in 1996 when he wanted to bust the budget and hire Belichick. He says, Arthur Blank likes coaches

who feel part of a family. It wasn't going to be that way with Bill. That seems like a weird prerequisite to hiring a coach. Like I would think I'd want to win games and increase the value of my franchise, but that's what these guys own, the teams. Yeah, and I think the value of your franchise is going to go up either way.

So a guy that makes Arthur Blank feel good, probably what he's after with his dastardly mustache, looks like a villain. Another source close to Kraft said that he found Bill to be extremely difficult, obstinate, and kind of stubborn, and in the end, not worthy of his trust. Also, very, very, very arrogant. Three varies. Three varies.

Yeah. Which, if any coach could... Count the fingers on my hand that don't have rings on them. I feel like any coach that should be arrogant, it's Bill Belichick. Of course. Yeah. And expect, hey, if I'm on the open market, there's going to be a line

of people waiting to hire me. Yeah. No, I think what it comes down to, and this is what I found most interesting about this article, we watch Mike McDaniel and now Cliff's getting brought back into the NFL as an OC.

The biggest question is just, is there a place for a guy who is a total control freak anymore? And maybe there's not. I don't know. I mean, that's kind of how college coaches still work. So I would say in the NFL, in that sport in particular, you would think that the pro players would be more open to,

I'm a tyrant. Would you say that... There aren't that many of them left, though, man. I was going to say, is Mike Shanahan a total control freak? Or Kyle Shanahan? Because they hired him, and then he hired the GM, essentially. John Lynch, yeah. I mean, he's definitely the strong,

we talked about Eric Johnson yesterday, the strong GM model of Kyle Shanahan is in charge, but I don't think he's like a dick. Whereas, like, Belichick is. And that worked for him for a really long time. I just don't know how many more head coaches there are going to be that are hired like that. Yeah.

If it's working, it's cute. You'll put up with it. I think Kraft even said that. One of Belichick's, again, another source, apparently close to a longtime friend of Belichick's, again, another source, apparently close to a longtime friend of Belichick, it says, says, I don't think Bill Belichick will ever be a head coach again in the National Football League unless it's for Jerry Jones.

The article does end with some Jerry, so we'll end with that as well, but not just yet. It's a very weird quote. Like, unprovoked. Yeah. Well, if he actually is inside with Belichick, he's telling you something coming from Belichick. Yeah, and...

And maybe he's just reading the whole league. Because, okay, they cite Washington, and you already said Washington. But I thought Washington might have made sense. Washington, of course, maybe not of course, but it is the place where Vince Lombardi ended up. He's from there. But Vince Lombardi left the Packers and actually ended his career with Washington.

But yes, Bill Belichick is from Annapolis, Maryland. And a very good point by Don Van Netta. He says, the combination of his hometown ties and football acumen might have helped the Commanders win and land a stadium in D.C., where that's the prime spot that they're trying to get, which is, many have surmised, that's the reason Jerry Jones hired Bill Parcells.

Well, I mean, he actually said it. Did he really? Yeah, you guys... Has he actually said that? You don't remember? That was the Tebow audio, where somebody's playing piano in the background

and Jerry's all drunk. That's not the Romo is a Miracle audio? That's exactly what it is. Okay, find it if you can. But yeah, that's He's like,

the only reason I hire Parcells. Did he? Yeah. I don't recall that. I remember the Romo is a miracle. Are you saying Jerry was drunk

in public? Yeah. I think he was quite inebriated. And not the time whenever he was like, hey, he's with a black girl. It says here the majority owner, Josh Harris of the Washington team,

wanted the same leadership structure he has with the Sixers and New Jersey Devils, a strong general manager who hires a head coach, overhead coach. I didn't know that this guy owned those properties as well. Yes. But it makes sense, right? All the rich people own everything. Okay, so here's my... When I said let's... Gosh darn it.

You can't find Romo's a miracle? No. Blake, what do you got? Let's see what I can do. Oh, you're now... Matt can just recreate it for you. Drink real quick. So here's my source.

How many sources do we have? Sources of sources. In a conversation with Arthur Blank, Robert Kraft delivered a stark assessment of Belichick's character. According to a source who spoke to two other people. So the source spoke to a close craft friend and a longtime Belichick friend. That source quoted the Belichick friend as saying, Robert called Arthur to warn him to not trust Bill.

And then the close craft friend backed that up. So you have one guy saying, hey, I talked to a friend of his and a friend of his and they both said this. That doesn't seem like... Yeah, it's weird. It's airtight. I'll bet that wasn't the Jerry audio.

That sounded a little too lucid. Let's see what we got. What do you think, Dan? Let it roll. Romo was a miracle. He was a miracle, wasn't he? He almost never got in, and he almost got. Tebow was never there.

What if you were the Jaguar? So they're asking him about why didn't they draft Tim Tebow. And he's like, Tebow would have never got in. Boy, that guy is just kind of egging him on too. It amps up. Yeah, for sure. What if you were the Jaguars owner? Would you just... It's so powerful, man.

The only reason I brought in Bill Post now. Wait, play that part again? Yeah. Bill Post now. Bill Post now. The only reason I brought in Bill Post now. Give me ten more seconds. Let me hear all that lead up.

Pretty much the beginning of it. What if you were the Jaguars? Would you just draft him to South Park, New Jersey? That's the only reason I brought him to Bill Post now. Tell him to give me a fucking raise. That's what it is. That's not right. That's not shit.

I love it. Yeah, I know you do. That wasn't it is. That's not right. That's not shit. I love it. Yeah, I know you do. I was shipping. I wanted a business. They were on my ass so bad. Jay's got to have a yes man. So to get this fucking statement, I need to bring his ass in.

You wouldn't take Tebow in the third round. Why? You never get on the deal. I can't get him out of there. I can't get him out of there I can't get him out there. Yeah, so the phrase that plays is he's like. Okay, so at first it was selling jerseys. That's the only reason I bought Bill Parcells.

Yeah, so that's why you bring in Tebow is to sell jerseys. And he's like, Bill wouldn't worth a shit. But I brought him in. Yeah, Hotel California. I was just thinking Jerry has been drunk in many bars with pianos in them. Oh, yeah. It's very rare. Bill Woodenworth is shit.

And then said he just had to get that effing stadium. I had to get that fucking stadium. Boy, that's great. Yeah. And who are those people? They're just random people. It's not like he's talking to some famous guy. And that's why I thought, yeah,

I just thought that maybe Washington would have gone that route as well. That makes sense, you know? Yeah. Last couple years, chasing the record, blah, blah, blah. He's from here, hometown boy. Man, and I've been wrong a lot before when it comes to broadcast stuff, but I just don't think he's going to be that good on television.

It is going to be very interesting to have him and Brady debut in the same year. Brady's doing the game of the week on Fox, and now Belichick is doing Monday Night Football with Peyton and Eli. Have you ever seen him in a couple of those viral things, like when he's explaining... Peanut butter sandwiches?

No, like Lawyer Malloy, or why Peyton Manning was so great, and game planning against him. I think the same thing about Brady, but just personality-wise. Yeah, can he play with others? Yeah. But what I understand is Belichick might, or at least this article alleges, he's going to sign with Peyton's company. Yeah.

And does that mean he might do games kind of like that? Just because... I assume so. Remember, him and Saban were fascinating. That was great, yeah. But, I mean, when they pop Amy Schumer on, what's Bill Belichick going to do with that? Do you know what I mean? Yeah, no, maybe I mean, when they pop Amy Schumer on, what's Bill Belichick going to do with that? Do you know what I mean?

Yeah, no, maybe I mean... Like Travis Kelsey or whatever. But isn't there a way to use him, like Coach's Film Room? There's some way. You can't do what Peyton and Eli are doing. Right. You can't do regular... We can't put him in a studio with Bill Cowher and...

Definitely not. Fricking Terry Bradshaw or whoever. We can't put him in a studio with Bill Cowher and... Definitely not. Fricking Terry Bradshaw or whoever. We can't, you know... He's probably not a game of the week unless he's the game of the week. Bill Belichick isn't going to sit with... The C-team? Yeah. Yeah, definitely not.

Yeah, it'll be interesting. I mean... You know, he's old. There's also that. Like, they're talking about him like he's, they're like, oh, he's 71. He still has some time. I'm like, dude, 71? Yeah, for a president.

Yeah, and like they, in this article, Don Van Etten mentions Harbaugh, and he's like, he's still got a lot left to tread on the tires. He's 60. Right, he's only 60. Yeah. I'm like, dude, I don't know. They expect him to do it for a decade. A 90-hour-a-week job at the age of 60 is going to wear on you a little bit.

Yeah. I would think. One of the Belichick friends, so this is the game you got to play, said, talking about Kraft and his motivation to keep Belichick from coaching. He says, if Bill goes on to have success, and Tom, Tom Brady, has already had success, then who does Kraft have to blame? Because right now it's kind of a, look, Brady left,

and look, everything went to S. So it must have been all Brady. He could at least play that game, yeah. Right, well, we're even glomming on to that. As many have said, the documentary The Dynasty, the docu-series is on Apple TV. Brady had his own documentary series

about the Patriots' dynasty and it was on ESPN plus I believe and but they just came out with on this off season where I think we've talked about this a little bit where like there's very little credit given to Belichick about the dynasty but it is like a Kraft production Kraft's production company put it together. Kraft is interviewed in there and everything. Kraft, in fact, blames Belichick for the team's, one of the Super Bowl losses when he benched cornerback Malcolm Butler against the Eagles.

But to me, that's also conveniently picking that because you have other Super Bowl wins where he'll bench Terry Glenn. He'll bench whatever. Was it Lawyer Malloy that he released right before the season started and he went and signed with the Bills? So that's very legendary, and that, in theory, galvanized the team. But that's what Bill Belichick does.

If he believes something is right he does it and it doesn't always work he's not 10 and 0 in Super Bowls so but that's kind of what you live with is the percentages kind of play out to where if you follow Bill Belichick it's going to work out for you more often than not does anybody else else think it's kind of crazy that Robert Kraft is still just on television all the time, and we all know that he got whacked off the morning of an AFC championship game and got his butt eaten? I think it's incredible. Jim Nance doesn't bring it up. His butt eaten

I think so right or was it a finger I don't recall that in the story but yeah I know there was something but drummer knows but I mean

there's butt stuff Marv Albert was back doing games like immediately after no it took him a year I was gonna say it was a season

but it was like late season and then he went on the sidelines for a year I think then he just did, it took him a year. I was going to say it was a season, but it was like late season and then early. He went on the sidelines for a year. But that's not the same, though. I think then he just did Nick's Radio for a year and then he came back. Robert Kraft is the owner of the most successful sports franchise of the last 20 years. Yeah, but when you're the owner, you control things. You're right. Look at Jerry.

I suppose you control the dude. Look at all that Jerry does, and he just still walks out there. Yeah, he's got a kid here. He's got a hooker here. And I don't even know how this makes sense, but somehow, having an illegitimate child

seems less sultry to me than getting fingered by a hooker. I think she was a masseuse. Jerry... Am I wrong about that? But Jerry floods the zone, dude. There's a million things on Jerry. That's like the Robert Kraft thing you can find.

Really? We got seven Robert Kraft stories? I mean, you've got like Spygate, Deflategate. Okay, but those all can conveniently stay away from Robert Kraft. He's not a football guy. He's not involved in that. I guess that's true, but... Yeah, but if you had found out that Jerry did what Robert Kraft did, you would think football guy. He's not involved in that. I guess that's true, but... Yeah, but if you had found out

that Jerry did what Robert Kraft did, you would think, oh. Of course he did. That fits. Yeah, that's... Now, he just wishes he could get to the championship game to get his buddy. Hey-oh.

Yeah. But I bet he would. Okay. A big theme here, and you've heard this with different people as well, like why the Falcons didn't hire him. If you hire Bill Belichick, you hire all of him. Yeah.

Which means, you know, even if Bill Belichick is sitting there saying, I don't need all full control, I will work with others, I will do this, that, and that, you still have the aura of Bill Belichick. Now, they did say this was a hiring or a not hiring by committee where they all put in their votes. What do you think the current general manager and the current personnel guy and the current president of the Falcons are going to say when you say, let's bring in Bill Belichick, do you think they're going to be like,

oh yes, I would love someone else to kind of do, or direct, maybe even be able to get me fired. Because if you're Bill Belichick in the room, every room he's in, unless he's in a room with Paul Brown,

or I don't know who. He is going to be the smartest guy in the room or have the most skins. And you're going to have to say, I'm going to defer to Bill Belichick on this one. But, yeah. So if they're doing a vote by committee, yes, all the guys who don't want Bill Belichick to kind of take their jobs are going to vote against Bill Belichick. Yeah. I think the Eagles were very similar to that as well, as far as the reasoning. Yeah, Roseman or whoever on down the line.

I mean, dude, he could tell you all day, hey, I'm just going to be the coach. I just want to be a coach. Come on. Mike Lombardi. Mike Lombardi had a good point. You know Mike Lombardi? Used to work with the Browns. Big Simmons guy, right?

Musers? Has he been on the Musers? He was a weekly guest on a radio station that we worked at. Was he really? Yeah. Yeah. The whole band is nodding. Okay, well, remember once we had John Daniels in,

and he reminded me that he was a weekly guest on my show, and I was like, really? How about that, little guy? That must have been something for you. Did you enjoy it? Yeah. What was I like? Yeah.

Sure. So, the Eagles' thoughts, Falcons' thoughts, if you hire Belichick, he will inevitably run the team, even if he doesn't demand total control. Mike Lombardi says, you have to be all in. But where I think he's not getting a fair enough evaluation is you have to have a good way of doing, if you have a good way of doing something,

he's one of the all-time best listeners. He's open to change. It just has to be smart change. And I think that's a big way of doing something, he's one of the all-time best listeners. He's open to change. It just has to be smart change. And I think that's a big part of the book when it lays out different stuff. Bill Belichick wants people who think differently, who can help him think differently. And I think those are the kind of people I really respect is that, you know, in politics, you might say, oh, you're just a flip-flopper. Well, in reality, though, it might be, hey, look, even if I'm this age,

I can learn how to do something different. Bill Belichick used to be a pound the ball, three yards in a cloud of dust. We win all games with defense. And then he was also the biggest offensive innovator of his time with Tom Brady. No one threw 50 touchdowns in the season before Brady. No one had the two tight end offense. They were airing it out, man. So I think that's a little short-sighted.

And then we end with the Dallas tie-in. Don Van Natten knows what he's doing. Of course. Let's see. Belichick has told confidants he thinks he'll get at least one interview next year. Dallas could be an option if Jerry Jones moves on from Mike McCarthy, a lame duck in the final year of his contract. Belichick has a strong relationship with both Jerry and Stephen Jones,

dating back years. On the other hand, Jerry Jones has been close with a lot of excellent head coaches who he has never hired. On the other hand, Jerry Jones has been close with a lot of excellent head coaches who he has never hired. And we also know, despite the Jerry needs the credit, which I think is that's the main motivator to me, of why Jerry wouldn't hire a Bill Belichick, you might also wonder, although everybody says financially they'll do anything they can, financially it's going to cost $20-25 million to hire Bill Belichick. Double, yeah.

Double what? What Mike McCarthy is. What I would imagine McCarthy's making, yeah. Or any other head coach that he could get for sure. Even though we always say, oh, Jerry would do anything, but he just wants the credit. I've never believed that, actually. I've never really seen that.

Yeah. I just want it for you. Well. I want it for you. I believe you put your prayer abilities to work last year when you wanted Kyrie to get traded here. That was me. Okay. And it worked.

Look at us now. Yeah. I'm already exhausted by next offseason. Cowboys? If they don't extend Dak, you're going to have Dak. And McCarthy. Yeah, and if they don't make at least the conference championship, it's going to be bring in Belichick.

Yeah. Bring in Belichick, let's get a new quarterback. Maybe it'll be fun. Look at him smiling. Look at this asshole. He's smiling because he loves it. It's incredible. And then let's draft Shador Sanders.

Oh, my God. And then maybe bring in Dion as the DC. Dion's not doing DC. Whatever. Although, head coach in waiting. There you go. What's wrong with the two of you? That'd be great.

No, it wouldn't. Why? I want to win games. They're not going to do that. Oh. That's not an option. You've wanted to win games for 25 years. What have you got?

My favorite team simply exists as a sitcom for the two of you. That's what it is. Two of us. For all of America. For all of us. For all of us? Yeah. For all of the prophets. It's us. For all of us? Yeah. For all of the prophets.

It's like talking to Matt. And the outlaws. Each and every outlaw. It's like talking to Matt. This is his take. You two have the same take. Yeah, it's just a comedy. It's my favorite show on TV.

Season whatever. He wants all the drama, all the mess. Bring Manziel back. Yeah, he was pumped on that. Des, were you looking for Des to get to training camp? Yes. Absolutely. It's not over, is it?

No. He could still do it. I know he could. He looks good. You know Zeke's coming back, don't you? Couldn't be more excited. Yeah. Let's get a whole band back together.

Romo OC. Jeez. You guys want to do some news? Sure. Jake's got the news. Jake's got the news. Jake's got the news. Jake's got the news.

Jake's got the news. Jake's got the news. Jake's got the news. Jake's got the news. Incredible. Be ready for when I end this. Red Lobster is considering bankruptcy partly due to $11 million in losses

from the Endless Shrimp deal. Oh, no. Yes. Yes. Chapter 11. Incoming. Endless Cheddar Biscuits doesn't help either.

They're really citing that? Yeah. I thought you were just making that up. I'm not. I'm not. It's an article in Bloomberg. Under the sea. Yo, who just pulled that off?

Redemption. Who just pulled that off? Redemption. Don't ask me to play any more of it, though. I just pulled that out of my ass. Under the sea. These are guys with kids. Under the sea. Not me.

I don't have any kids. Oh, you don't have any kids? You're just kind of creepy that you know that? Just a creepy dude. Should be on a list. Fan of all the mermaids. I teach piano lessons, man. Okay. Kids love on a list. Fan of all the mermaids. I teach piano lessons, man. Okay.

Kids love Disney. Okay. I feel like it's a restaurant that has gotten a really bad rap. There, I said it. Why? People joke about it like it's a divorced dad type restaurant. What's different between Red Lobster and like Fridays or Chili's? Nothing.

My wife has always hated it. Yeah, everybody I know hates it. Red Lobster pretends to be upscale. Do they? Yeah. They're in bankruptcy. Well, now. But I'm with Blake a little bit and my wife has always said she doesn't like it

because everything there is brown. Okay. It feels racist. All the food, everything is brown. Yeah. You get your shrimp. That must mean everything is fried, everything is breaded.

You get your shrimp. Grilled shrimp. You get your baked potato. Everything looks the same. You get your biscuits. I get it. It's a big brown meal. Did we talk about Subway the other day?

I don't know. I don't remember we had John Daniels on. I think we've yo-yoed too far into thinking Subway sucks. There. I've never said Subway sucks. Yeah, you have. No, I'm pro. There have been times where I've been on my way to your house,

and you're like, why are you doing that? You don't think every sandwich tastes the exact same, no matter what you get? I like it. You know what I don't like about Subway, and you've probably seen me do this. The pedophile? Yeah, Jared, yeah.

No, he was a good guest. What I don't like is that they put the meat on the top. Oh, my gosh. I'm so tired of this. So they cut the top part, and then they put the meat on the top. And I'll reach over and go, hey, will you just put the meat on the side closest to you? And they're like, what? Yeah, yeah, just put.

You know what I want? I want the toppings to be, hold on. Guess where I want them. You got two choices. You got the bottom. That's all I want. I want my tomato and my lettuce and everything on the top of the tuna. Right.

Or veggie patty, which are really my orders. Because I'm a gay. Just say it. I'm a gay. Just say it. I'm a vegetarian. That's what you want to say. I get it. Okay.

That's cool. No, I just... I actually don't think it's that bad. It's all I eat. I think what happened is they got caught up in the proliferation of sandwich restaurants across America, right? Like we had like... Whoa. We had like a... The proliferation of sandwich restaurants across America, right? Like we had like, whoa. The proliferation of Subways, though. There's one on every corner. Yeah, for sure.

But then like, you know, with Jimmy John's. Schlotzky's. Schlotzky's. Jersey Mike's. Jersey Mike's with all of it. Quiznos once upon a time. Everyone was like, oh. Say again?

I said Quiznos. There's no Quiznos, right? Rip Quiznos? Yeah. Rest in power Quiznos. Is that the one that had Muser money? I don't remember. They had a promotion where you could get

Muser money and spend it at Quiznos, I think. Or maybe it was the place with the olives. A man who went by the name Father Martin. He is an accused burglar allegedly posed as a priest to steal money from churches across the

US including here in Texas. I've always thought that would be a pretty good grift. Implicitly trusting folks. 45 years old. You know, I mean, people are like, oh, you're here to help us, God, and stuff. So he rips off churches? Yeah.

Catholic churches. In particular. Well, they've used their implicit trust in church leadership to do some things over the years. What sort of things? To go to Subway and lose lots of weight. That is a fantastic workaround that you just pulled there. I like that. I like that too.

I like it all. Did you ever feel like... You know what? I've never actually asked you this. Your church experience as a kid. None? No. We went to church when I was little.

It must have been something my mom just thought you have to do. Right. Because she wasn't like real have to do. Right. Because she wasn't like real stoked on it. No. But she did tell me why she believed in God. She was a young mother. She's a nice lady. For sure. But it was a different time.

It was a different time. It was free love back in the 60s. Very free. So that implies that she's not a whore. A whore would get to pay her. Yeah, there's a pay. Yeah. So she was just there for anyone.

I stopped making it better. It's a lot better. That's why we don't know who my dad is. I'm a mix of many different father possibilities from that week. What did we say? Oh, yeah, church. Why do I know this? Isn't she lovely?

Isn't she lovely? There you go. I wouldn't have caught Blake to pull this one out. Good job, Blake. Why do I know this? What is this, Stevie Wonder? Good job, Dan. Isn't she beautiful?

Is Stevie Wonder the blind? Which we knew was. So you got some altar boys. Stevie Wonder? Yeah. No. No. No.

For real? He's not dead. Okay, so he wasn't was blind because he didn't get eyes, right? Stevie Wonder, 73. I'm going to be shocked if you tell me he's dead. He's not. He's alive. That was wrong.

Have you seen the We Are the World documentary? That's a dumb question for you. Have you guys seen the We Are the World documentary? I've seen some of it. I like where Michael just stares at people when they can't sing. Yes. He's like,

my dad whooped my ass my whole life. Is it like Cyndi Lauper or somebody in the background? He's like, God, you suck. Do the stink eye off of that one. Yeah. I love... That was a really good documentary.

So, Church? Oh, you've got some altar boys in the band. Really? Yeah. Never got molested. Not even once. Great. Yeah, fantastic. Good for you, man. So church? Oh You've got some altar boys in the band Really? Yeah Never got molested Not even once Okay great yeah fantastic Good for you man

I'm really happy about that yeah Are you ever a little bit upset like Why not me? Am I that disgusting? I think that often I think that often Yeah No for whatever reason

You know child of the 80s My mom thought I was going to get molested my entire life. She was always warning me about men and Catholic priests and stuff. I don't know. Well, that's good. That's probably why you don't think. Yeah, I was never able to go to... If you got the radar up for it.

Oh, yeah. But they'd come on strong. Gross. Yeah. Jeez. I don't know about the other one he may have gotten anyway not a lot of church but yeah i did certainly went for a while went as a kid you know you got your questions you're wondering well the only reason i bring it up in this case of in this case of fraud is i feel like there was always a blake probably knows about this. There was a charismatic figure that would show up

once every couple years, and you're like, oh, is this guy going to take over now, or is he youth guy? And then he would just move on. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, the traveling pastor. Yeah. Who's here to rejuvenate the church. Yeah. He's a mid-season addition, and he's going to fire things up. And then sometimes you had to go on like a Tuesday night just to hear him. Yeah, and then he would be gone. Yeah, he'd be gone a couple months later. Yeah. And I always felt like that was definitely a traveling grifter.

Like he would cozy up with some of the females in the flock. You're like, okay, Where'd you come from? Van Alstyne? Weird. And so do these guys charge the church for their services? You know what I think typically is the case is, at least at my church growing up, they actually were not paid. They were just like fully.

Taken care of. Taken care of. Like so that somebody would get them a house. That would be taken care of. Their utilities are taken care of. They have like some sort of a stipend. Or something like that. And like so they're not actually paid a salary.

Which I imagine is tax related. If I had to guess. Yeah. Knowing a little bit about that world now. Yeah. All right, there's your 130 News. Yeah, I said it. I said 130.

Jake's got the news. Jake's got the news. Jake's got the news. Jake's got the news. Jake's got the news. Jake's got the news. Woo! Jack's got the moves.

Woo! So I actually wanted to talk about that We Are the World documentary. That was awesome, by the way. Yes. You guys are the best. I think the whole day has been pretty awesome. But it seems self-evident. You don't need the... I just wanted to thank our friends.

You don't need to be told it over and over by me, do you? I feel like if I say it too often, then you're going to take it for granted. I have to do it like the way my father held out, saying I love you to this very day. This guy cosplaying as someone who knows his father. I thought it was great. I was about to say, you heard it? Ever?

I thought the... No, I said to this day. Okay. He's been holding out. All of them. Not one of the fathers have said that, that he loved me. My wife and I got in an argument. You guys are fighting a lot recently.

Yeah. It's happening more. It's because he's home a lot more. Home too much. Oh, is that it? Yeah. Yeah, it's terrible. You know, financial strains also.

You wouldn't understand that, Blake. Hand over fist over here. I'm about to buy this house from Matt. Yeah. So, okay, so first of all, the whole thing was amazing. If you guys want to jump in, if you all have seen it too, did you say you've seen it or you're interested? No, I mean, I've seen some scenes from it, and I am interested, for sure.

Yeah, it's very, very good. One of the things that was very interesting to me was, like, the year that it occurred. Was it 1985? Whatever. They had to get all these big stars together in one place. And they were all doing like the Grammys or the... No, it was the American Music Awards, I believe, that night. Yeah.

And it wasn't Stevie Wonder. It was Lionel Richie was hosting the American Music Awards. Not blind, but made a music video with a blind person. Did he? Come on. Hello? You guys have not seen the hello video. I don't know what you're saying.

Jesus Christ. Hello? Yeah, he's got a fucking blind lady with the pottery. This is one of the most famous music videos of all time. I've heard the song. I haven't seen the video. Okay, whatever. Okay.

Well, why are you getting mad at everybody? I just would have never thought that a group of musicians had not seen Lionel Richie's Hello video. Well, I've been supporting everything these guys do today, but if you want to rip them... It was just funnier to watch you get upset. It's fair.

That's generally my stance, too. Yeah. So it was like it was 1985-ish or so, and one of the awards they handed out was Best Black Song of the Year, something like that. Yeah. Like it was like, those were the categories. Yeah.

Like you have your best song, but then, what about the best black song? For you people who can't really do music like we can, even though we might have stolen it from you. So good. You know? And then sometime in the 90s, they decided to soften it to urban. Oh, did they really?

Yeah. But I think even that is out of favor. But the argument we got in was about, so they're interviewing everybody about how great it was and how emotional and what a night. Because what they did was they had to find all these artists who would be in the same place at one time. And that's never unless it's an award show. Sure. So everybody that flew in for this award show, they then, after the award show, drove over to a recording studio.

And they were there until 6 in the morning recording We Are the World. And it's really incredible, the moving parts that had to occur to make this even happen. Is this like a Quincy Jones type thing? Quincy Jones is a big player in there. So, yes, it's not Stevie Wonder. Lionel Richie, and he basically tried to get Stevie Wonder. Stevie Wonder never returned his phone call for two weeks trying to get help writing this song. So Michael Jackson basically wrote the song with him, and they put

the song together. They wrote it, and Michael Jackson obviously might have had some Jared tendencies, but obviously also he's Michael Jackson. He's a genius. So he knew everybody's part. He's putting it together. He's deciding when should Bruce Springsteen come in. Now how does each part play against the other part? People had to check their egos at the door because these are all huge superstars who I might give you one line.

You might just be in the background. The oddest person in the whole thing that was a part of this for some reason if you guys can you guys tell me who was

the person that was in the background singers that you were like what? There was one. I just remember the Bob Dylan part.

Bob Dylan had a part but Bob Dylan's not odd to be involved. Were there hip-hop artists or something? Dan Aykroyd. Dan Aykroyd? Dan Aykroyd, actually a great singer, though. Just seemed really weird. It is weird.

He's not known as a singer. Everyone else was known as a recording star. Yeah. Star. And Dan Aykroyd, known as a singer. Everyone else was known as a recording star. Star. And Dan Aykroyd, who in the mid-80s was a pretty big movie star, but really otherwise, why is he there? There was no other big movie star.

Mel Gibson wasn't there. It was just Dan Aykroyd. Arnold wasn't there. It looks very weird on the credits that Dan Aykroyd is there. But now at the end of it, we're going home. We're just talking about how great everything was. And one of the guys you're going to hear from is a crew member, like a cameraman that they called in.

Okay? When it was over, we were exhilarated and exhausted, to be sure. We'd been up all night. But even then, on the evening, you knew that we'd done something that was gonna live forever. You killed it. And we made it through.

Is it okay? Trying to get 40 superstars together in the same place at the same time is impossible, really. That's why all of a sudden, Springsteen said, right after my show, I'm coming to California. Paul Simon, I'm on my way. Paul Simon, I'm on my way. Billy Joel, I'm on my way.

Bob Dylan. Here we go. In this room. Getting up to the gun. This family grew. Woo! I assumed this was a paying gig, so at the end of the night when I'm getting ready to home,

I had kind of like made up an invoice, and they go, invoice? There's no invoice. This is all volunteer. Everybody here is volunteer. I went, all right. Well, I got this cool t-shirt and a great story. So, okay. So he was just a cameraman they called in.

And I said to my wife, that really sucks for that guy. Yeah. And she's like, what? He got to be a part of the world and blah, blah, blah, blah. Making history. Yeah, okay. All the other guys, though. Make $15 million a year.

Yeah. Make millions. They clearly know, hey, I will get the Goodwill Pub for this because you're going to look at this record and say it's for Africa and we're feeding kids, they're dying. Okay, now Bruce Springsteen, gosh, he gave his time. I might like Bruce Springsteen a little more now. You don't just do this.

This wasn't done anonymously. They all knew this is not going to hurt my career to be a part of this. Cameraman, until this day that this documentary came out, was just a guy that had his, now he had a cool experience, but he ain't making any points off of it. How much was his cool experience check? Yeah, he went to the mailbox looking for money. For me, basically, I just, I cannot, off the top of my head, conceive of the idea of having someone run video for you for no money.

Well. You want to pop in here, bud? run video for you for no money. Well... You want to pop in here, bud? I would think the difference between Michael Copeland... That would just be... That would be... Yeah, I... The difference between... Do we have a CopelandProductions.com

that we can put over me now when I talk about it? There, do this thing. Do this little number. Unethical at best. CopelandProductions.com. Michael Copeland knew ahead of time. There's no

after the whole show is over. Oh, by the way, Michael Copeland from CopelandProductions.com. You're, remember how much

he loved Bono? Yeah. He was so for Bono, he was, you would not say he was anti-Bono, right? Yeah, I mean, I...

And this guy was not... If you were told before, I bet he would have still accepted it. Probably. But it was a bit of a surprise. My point was to not have this grinding all-nighter. You didn't know you'd be there that late. I thought I'd be home earlier. And, you know, and my wife argued with me about it.

But then the makeup sex was so... Dynamite? So fast. It was like 20 to 30 seconds. Nobody ever says so fast. Which makes it great for me. Yeah, for sure. Do we intro today in history in some way?

Or do I just go ahead and hit my thing? Or are we just playing it throughout? What are we doing here? Whatever you want. I don't know what I want. I just know it's Thursday, April 18th. I can confirm that. On this day in 1775, it was the first confirmed occurrence of a thing that sounds dirty but probably wasn't intended to be. When Paul Revere began his famous ride from Charlestown to Lexington.

He was yelling out for all children to hear. What was he saying? Some lady named the British are coming. The British are coming. Think of the children. On this day in 1934, the first laundromat...

I wish I would have been alive back then. 1775? Yeah. You don't feel you're too soft for that era? I just don't think a British person could ever mess with me. Ever. They had muskets. Yeah, but they were like lining up in rows.

I know. I feel like you give me and Blake a night to plan and we could take out most of them. Yeah. I just don't think you're conquering me. Yeah. I just don't think there's any way.

They're British. You seem like a guy that would have thrown some tea into the harbor. Back then, man. They ran the world, though. Because nobody had stood up yet. Nobody had stood on business. All right. On this day in 1934, the first laundromat opened in Fort Worth, Texas.

Oh. Spell it backwards. You like that bit? On this day in 1934, the first laundromat opened in Fort Worth, Texas. Spell it backwards. You like that bit? No. What? You'll see a laundry place. They invert the letters for no reason at all. What is the point of that?

I think it's just to catch your attention, probably. I would imagine. Let's do that with our logo. Boy, I haven't been to a laundromat in a long time. I have pretty recently. I go to the one over by your house. Yeah, yeah, because you had a... Trey broke our washing machine. That's right, yeah.

You want our logo to be inverted? Nah, probably not. Okay. These guys are just jamming. I just say lots of stuff, Blake. On this day in 1966, Bill Russell, named player coach of the Boston Celtics, becoming the NBA's first black coach. You think LeBron will ever do it, or is he straight to ownership?

He'll never coach. Player coach? No. What if he could bring him back back what if he could coach Brawny okay we're reeling him back I'm in would you get rid of kid

for LeBron 100% tomorrow without a doubt sight unseen on this day in 1783 General Washington George George Washington, issued the

general order announcing the end of hostilities with Britain. Gave thanks to the Almighty, offered congratulations, and then, because he was a benevolent, he was a very good leader. Yeah, okay. He authorized an extra rationing

of alcohol for the troops to celebrate. Look at that. What a guy. You. Yeah, okay. He authorized an extra rationing of alcohol for the troops to celebrate. Look at that. What a guy. You earned it, boys. Hip hip. Hooray.

Do you wish you lived in an era where you could just yell hip hip and everybody else would just jump on board? Did I just hear a hip hip? Like you're just on edge.

Down the street. Yeah. You're waiting for someone to do that. Please. Please yell hip hip. And then you're a kid and you're like, I can't wait until I'm old enough to yell hip hip.

Hooray. Like when I was at a game as a kid and I can't wait until I'm old enough to start the wave, man. I can't believe you guys haven't seen this Lionel Richie video. That guy is the coolest guy. The guy up in front of our section who's starting the wave. Yeah. Once I get older.

Is that a barrel he's wearing? Oh, my gosh. What a cool guy. Birthday's today. Okay. Besides dirty listeners, former cowboy Kenny Gant is 57. Dude, this guy knows. Yeah.

Shark up. Did you have a little hat? I don't think I had the hat, but they definitely banned the celebration for my youth football league. Have we had him on? No. I thought we did. But it was definitely, I mean, everybody would do it. They banned that, and they banned the Dion bandana.

You couldn't wear the do-rags. Yeah, because I would wear a do-rag under my helmet. Of course you would. I was like eight. Former cowboy Sam Pileski was 40. There's a couple of notes for him. Yeah, there are. Do you have the audio of that?

I can probably find it pretty quickly. Oh, that's a couple of notes for him. Yeah, there are. Do you have the audio of that? I can probably find it pretty quickly. Oh, that's a good question. That's where Brad Sham dropped a C-bomb on one of the punts of Sam Pilescu. You could have given me a little bit of a heads up here, Chief. Well, I can tell the other Sam Pilescu note that I have is that he looks exactly like... Do you remember? I don't. Does anybody remember my wacky bit here?

He looks exactly like... So in the movie... That looks like a beep. You know, you can see the waveform. Yeah. In the movie Boogie Nights, when Mark Wahlberg has fallen on tough times near the end and people are paying to watch him pleasure himself. So a guy pulls up, pays Mark Wahlberg to pleasure himself,

but then beats him up because he's really just wanting to beat up gay people or whatever. I don't know. That guy looks exactly like Sam Pileski. Okay. Like, look at them both. Seriously. Okay, yeah, I will.

Seriously! Yeah, this... Everybody thinks I'm kidding. Do you even want to hear it beeped? Yeah. Pull me up. Pileski's kick. Oh, this is a good kick by the rookie free agent from Oregon.

Back to Kirkus at the 23. Up quickly to the 30. Left across the 35 to the 40. Really good return. A 56-yard punt by Peleskiw. I think the stammer and all that still makes it worth it. Amazing. Tressway is 34.

Speaking of punters. And a former. What college did Tressway go to? How do you not know? Wish we knew. Longhorn? He was a Sooner. Oh.

I'm looking at Sooners over here. Yeah. Well. That's our bad. Boyan. Bogdanovich is 35 35 How many Boyans did you I don't know Well there's Boyan and Bogdan

I know but how many Boyans do you know? Not many Miguel Cabrera is 41 Biggie Alia Shawkat is 35 Don't know it She is maybe from Arrested Development. Oh, 11.

Let's see. You never did Arrested Development? How much could one banana cost? No, I did. Anyoung, it's a banana, Michael. Is there money in it? Conan O'Brien is 61. Glow up.

He looks good, I think, for a 61-year-old. He looks fantastic. Kourtney Kardashian. 45. Is that the one you like? No. You like Khloe. I do.

The fat one. Oh, OJ's daughter. Yeah. Khloe is OJ's daughter. Yeah. Although he did deny that. Well. We'll never know.

And she did say she had sex with him, which makes it weird. She didn't have sex with him. That's what she said. No, Chloe didn't. Yeah. The mom did. It was a joke, but I knew.

Oh, okay. Or maybe not. What's the punchline? She said it. I mean, she said it. It was like an interview. See, OJ denied it, but has OJ ever denied anything else?

No, I think he's got a pretty clean record. For sure. Some spares from TV shows. Jane Leaves, 63. Jane Leaves? Daphne Moon in Frasier. Why do I always think you were stoked on Frasier? I don't know.

I do have that thought that you once told me you liked Frasier. I can't stand that show. It doesn't make any sense at all. You look like a Frasier guy. For some reason, you love Bulldog. There's a guy on there called Bulldog. What? Eric McCormick is 61.

That is literally the meanest thing anybody's ever said to me. I just thought you were stoked on Frasier. And every time I see a Frasier thing, it's kind of like, I think you're about to vote for the Davey O'Brien or the whatever. You didn't think Daphne was hot? Remember a couple months ago? Again, back to the British thing. Not a fan.

Okay. Okay. Remember a couple months ago, you were trying to sell us on the Frasier reboot? Do the next birthday. Were you? No, I wasn't. It was a fake video. God bless it.

Not in front of the prophets and the outlaws. Melissa Joan Hart, 48, says here, Sabrina the Teenage Witch. That is me. Is she hot? You Teenage Witch. Yes, that is me. Is she hot? You mean Clarissa?

Ah, explain it all to me. Oh, my God. Yeah, back in the day, she was... Melissa Joan Hart, huh? Top notch. Let's see here. Let me see if I can confirm that. Let's see if Dan can Google a boner.

Let's see. Like, why? How about yes and? Remember yes and? I remember yes and. I'm sorry. Not all this BS? I'm sorry.

This little man. Yeah, okay. Thank you. All right. Let's see here. Where was I? Approved. Rick Moranis is 71.

Always gave me just the strangest creepy vibe. Didn't like those movies as a kid. Oh, really? Nah. Boy, my kids loved them. They were always on. Yeah, everyone did seem to love them, but I don't know, man. Were you ever amused that his last name is Moranis?

Of course. Isn't that kind of funny? Yes. Do you know America Ferreira is 40? I don't. She is Ugly Betty, which was a program. Born on the Stay Now Dead, Clarence Darrow, the defense attorney at the Scopes Monkey Trials or Trial.

Probably just one trial. It'd be funny if they actually put the monkeys up there. Yeah. Are you telling me that we were once an ape? He's like, sir, I plead the fifth. Died on this day,

still dead. We have Albert Einstein. And on this day in 2012, this will explain the open to the show. Dick Clark. Oh, wow. It's funny. And that is Today in History.

I want to keep going. We've got applause. Look at that. I think keeping going would be great. I wish I had more stuff. I'm out of material. That's the main problem. Do we do closing remarks?

Yeah. Or do we want to closing tunes? What's your bid here, boys? You were telling us maybe your daughters might critique our song. That might be cool. Yeah. I'd be up for that. That's kind of a bid idea I had that I wanted to run it by these guys.

Should I tell them the origin of it? Yeah, tell them. Because I got... It's a good idea. We have an email from someone who wanted to debut their song on our show. Okay. Like next week. And they were going to pay us to do so.

Sounds great. At first, we obviously, when someone says, I will pay you too, you start nodding. Right. Yes, yes. But then I think, I'm an artist. Pure. And to mess with the fabric of the show, though, for us to sit there and play a three-minute song and listen to it, and then what if we don't like it?

What if we do? I don't know. That seems disingenuous. That doesn't seem like who we are. like listen to it and then what if we don't like it what if we do i don't know it that seems disingenuous that doesn't seem like who we are that we would be like oh yes i think you know and i don't know anything about music anyway i'm listening to andy gibb for god's sake so what's wrong with that i find nothing nothing wrong with andy gibb um but it's not like we're uh you know that's not our established critics Established critics. Yeah. And if people are listening, they're like,

this isn't your thing. You've clearly, but so the idea is for 690, we will, if, if they would let us, we will debut your song, but the song will be reviewed by the roast twins.

Holy shit. So my daughters will, they're just going to have it. They sit and listen to it, and you know what's going to happen. Yeah. So you know going in. Now, if you're listening, now you're also entertained, theoretically. I don't want to guarantee that. That's the idea, though.

But you, you know, that that's funny funny and they're S-ing all over it and then you still get some pub out of it and people know your song exists and they'll be able to go to, you know, Spotify and get the song,

download it and all that kind of stuff. Sure. And I would kind of think our audience, too, like I was saying to you, the man great in Norm MacDonald, some of the great all time,

you listen to some other podcasts, you say, well, just S all of their sponsors. Yeah. And you're more likely to support that sponsor. Way more. Because you kind of know they get it. Yeah, they're cool. They got the sense of humor. It doesn't matter.

You can joke about something. It doesn't really mean that you mean that. So if indeed, I would think that'd be good for all. If indeed people would want to do that. And you've even volunteered. You would do that for maybe the next song you guys come up with. Pour our hearts out and then let Dan's daughters just shit all over you. In real time.

A goo goo ga ga. Because there's no way, even if it's the greatest song in the world, if I say, hey, this is some of our listeners put this together, what do you think? First of all, they're going to kill us. Yeah. They're going to destroy us for doing this stupid thing. How many people even heard this?

Yeah. He just keeps saying hello. And what's this blind lady with pottery? Good video, but... Be cool if she could see. Alright, so that's coming to a theater near you. That's kind of like the whole 690 thing started organically anyway, so

maybe that'll start. Sorry, closing remarks. I stepped all over your closing remarks. This isn't my show. This is the Prophets and Outlaws show. Well, we're huge fans, guys. Thank you for coming. Thank you for my show. This is the Prophets and Outlaws show. Well, we're huge fans, guys. Thank you for coming. Thank you for having us.

We followed the whole journey. Most of us have been listening since we were in high school. We knew Groobz. Groobz! We know Groobz. So we just love you guys. Did you know the Groobz house

that Dirk bought? Yeah, I know of it. Okay. In the race car bed. I went to school with him. You went to school with Groobz? Yeah, I was in his grade. Oh, okay. Yeah. Good dude. We were talking. He's one of the bravest guys I know of it. Okay. In the race car bet. I went to school with him. You went to school with Grubbs? Yeah, I was in his grade. Oh, okay.

Yeah. Good dude. We were talking. He's one of the bravest guys I know. He would play catch with our star pitcher. He had to put on full catcher's gear just to play warm-up catch with Michael Knox, who would throw the ball 95 miles an hour. At his face.

I saw him throw it from home plate over center field. And then Grubbs would play catch with that guy. And I had immense respect for him. He could throw it from home plate over the field. And then Grooves would play catch with that guy. And I had immense respect for him. He could throw it from home plate over the fence? Wow. I mean, he was unbelievable. And Grooves would play catch with him. Maybe he could teach me to throw.

Yeah. Was Grooves not an actual good player? Oh, he was. He's not the biggest guy, and he played catcher, which is tough. It's tough. But, I mean, he had all the balls. He was the Eddie Goodell of your school? Yes. Knock's tough. But, I mean, he had all the balls. He was the Eddie Goodell of your school. Yes.

Yes. Knock, knock. Are these the closing remarks? I don't have anything substantial to say, but thanks for coming out, guys. Yeah. We can play you all out. You going to play us a song to leave

after Matt Brunick signs us off? Yeah. Or as Matt Brunick signs us off? Yeah. Or as Matt Brunick signs us off? All right, let's go. Let's go. Adios. Oh, God. Rain rolling down my window

Put a wretch in everything I had today And so I cast out all my plans Gonna find a new solution right away And when I'm down to get underwater to ease my woe I sing out my sins with the words I love You can find me at the soul shop Where my daddy taught me how to ride And my mama played the 88 top

I say come with me When you find me in the store shop, I'll be dancing on rooftop With the rhythm of the raindrops, singing melody Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na
