Oh my, what a bargain. Now, on to today's program. The Dunza, Dunza, Dunza. I'm pumped to say hello as Clippers to Paul and Kawhi. Come on! Come on! Come on! Get up! Come on, get up if you're as psyched as I am! Get up!

Yeah! Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright Yeah! All right, you know how we're like No Puppet Network now or something? No Puppet Productions, and we hope someday we will perhaps even add more around us, but we don't want to get ahead of ourselves. We got problems just as it is. But should we ever do something like that, will you promise right here on this day, Thursday, May 2nd, 2024, live to tape, live to videotape, will you, Jake Kemp, promise, solemnly swear, that you will recreate that Steve Ballmer speech?

Like, let's say we were adding, I don't know. Let me give a hypothetical we'd never actually do. Like, remember Julie Dobbs? Yeah. What if we were like, we're going to add her. Would you do that pumped, unpumped speech for... If I had the words in front of me, I'd do it right now. Well, we're not ready to do that.

We're not adding anyone. Okay. Especially not her. A poem! Now, pretend you're worth $50 billion and you're doing that. The best part of going to go see the Mavs play the Clippers is you can't miss it. Oh, my gosh, yeah. Doesn't matter what side of the court you're on.

You can find him over there just doing the Frank the Tank. I told you I would love owner cam for this series. Yeah. I want one trained on Cuban, one trained on him. I was getting annoyed seeing him every time they showed Luca on the bench last

night. Cubes? Yeah. Because I feel like he's just... time they showed Luka on the bench last night. Cubes? Yeah. Because I feel like he's just... Did you guys see the thing the other night or a couple weeks ago where Mark Zuckerberg was somehow associated with an MMA fighter? Yeah, he's all ripped now. Yeah, yeah. He does MMA, but he was a part of a UFC guy's team. And he's part of the walkout group and he is in between

the fighter and the guy who has the stuff the fighter needs like water a towel his mouth guard and so the guy's trying to hand it to the fighter but Zuck's in between so he's just kind of like putting his hands on it like as they hand it over like oh yeah I'm part of it unnecessary assembly line. Yes. That's how I feel when I see Cuban behind the bench sometimes. That they're all like dapping each other up and they go through the wars together and then Cuban's in the background like, high five! Hey! Well, top sports news today besides the whole Mavs win is, as reported here first,

Ezekiel Elliott will be changing his number. Yeah. Yeah, you were on top of that. A friend of mine was. I feel like we talked about it before that. Didn't we? I'd like to take credit. No, yeah, but I mean our show.

Okay, well then it's all... No, our show, yeah. Yeah, like right away. When I say I, that means all of us. Right away we were like, yeah, this is just a marketing opportunity. Yeah, so you've already got your 21 Zeke jersey. Guess what? Now you can... You've got to get a 15.

You've got to get a 15. Can I make a prediction? Please. That he will have under four yards of carry next year and also— What's the easiest prediction? I'll take three. And also be top seven in jersey sales. Okay, top—

This is a layup. Okay, so under three and a half— What about bottom ten of— Yards per attempt on actual backs? Yeah, guys who are considered RB1s. Or even twos. How about bottom five? Bottom five of the

top 60 running backs by carry. Yards per carry. Top five jersey sales. That's a great one. Write that down. One of my buddies pointed out in the old group chat boy he's gonna look so fat that number yeah like the one five that's a skinny man's number that's like a wide receiver number you know maybe right like cd has a fat number he should have 11

he yeah i mean he he wanted 11 had the number what Didn't he want? 88 is not a skinny guy number. Two? Yes. I think it was two in college and he wanted it. And then Jerry's like, no. Oh, I thought he wanted 11. Okay. I think it was two. But either way, Micah looks great in 11.

Yeah. He's lean and sleek and fast. 15. With his gut hanging out. I know. He's going to have it pulled up over his belly. He's going to feed me and ask out of the game. So if you're listening today, which most people I think do, you do not know we are actually in our studio with a video show today.

Video Man is here, and we are broadcasting. So this is now our temporary, possibly permanent studio home. It's our home away from home, which is really freaky because if you think about it, our home is my home where I live. It's my home. So my home is now going to be, like, if this becomes our home, my home will be our home away from home. Okay, yeah. But it's my away from home. Okay, yeah.

But it's my home. I got you. I don't. How do 690 remotes and stuff fit in this deal? That's like vacation home? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like tomorrow in Tyler? Because those are all homes we could never dream of being in.

The street continues. We'll see what happens tomorrow. Oh, that's not a home, though, is it? No. Where are we tomorrow? Want to promote? Oh, before you promote, I would like you to promote. Well, go ahead.

Let's get your little promotions out of the way. Blake's very good at promoting. I think we're not. The other day, he was concise, bang, bang, bang. We're going to be at Meat Church in Waxahachie. But when is that? That's not tomorrow. No, that's next Monday.

Oh, dude. He's like borderline world famous. Yeah. Your stepdad is stoked on meat? He's a dad. Okay. That's a great point. Yeah.

Hey, we can order some and then take a picture of it and put it on social media and be like, hey, look what I'm about to eat. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Maybe a little meat emoji or something. I'm going to show people the temperature of my brisket oh that'd be great how about the ring and then tell you how long it was on the smoker tell you what time i woke up to put it on the smoker well that's not tomorrow though that's monday that's

ETX Brewing. ETX Brewing. Sorry. We'll be there tomorrow. You said beast and that threw me off. So those are good promotions from him. You were about to do something and now I'm going to redirect you back to that so you don't forget. Well, I want to introduce our in-studio guest today. If you're on video, all the horn dogs can get fired up because it's a lady.

She identifies as a lady. Bird dog in that. You identify as a woman? Are you a cis woman? So many questions. As far as I know I'm a woman This is Julie Dobbs You may remember her

Hi From Stars Sideline What do we call that? It's not sideline Rinkside reporter Rinkside reporter Yeah yeah

What do you think Of Leah Hextall? Oh Bag No She's great She's good How do you like her bangs?

She's great He said bag Oh my I like her bag. Oh my God. She's got a bag. She's got a bag or you would bag. No. Over. Well, oh sure. I'll. Cause that's the other thing guys like to talk about with bags and women, right? Put a bag over her head or whatever. she's not hot oh do they like if sure her face isn't good but her body is okay no i would never is that just me yeah i mean i've heard it but you want to put a bag over leah hextall's head i absolutely do not but i was trying to figure out your use of the word bag we've graduated from butterface to put a bag over her head. Baghead. Kids these days.

Jeez, what's wrong with me? Anyway, one week ago today, I was on a radio station in Dallas called 97.1 The Freak, and it was on Julie's show. Yeah. And last week, I said, hey, could you be on our show at 1 p.m. or noon? And you're like, I can't. I have my own show. And now this week, all of a sudden, you're like, oh, yeah, could you be on our show at 1 p.m. or noon? And you're like, I can't. I have my own show. And now this week, all of a sudden, you're like, oh, yeah, I can be there at noon. I'll be there as long as you want.

Anytime. So you don't have a show anymore. What happened? No, no. I don't. Did I kill the freak? You might have. Was I the last guest on the freak?

You were the, you, let's see, you were on Thursday. Yeah. You were on our very last show yes so you woke up friday morning and they're like hey guess what you at least killed the speakeasy you will not be working today it's pretty funny too you definitely drilled it but that i was on wednesday and you were on thursday listen off the air friday we had a feeling like i had a feeling i can't say we i can't speak for everybody but i had a feeling and that's why i was like kind of hustling like i wanted when i heard you were in that day for ben and skin jake i was like why don't you just stay like i want to get you on my show because i don't know if this show is going to exist much longer and then the

same for dan i wanted y'all to hop on and have some fun with us while we still could. Hey, maybe you'd still exist if you had us on a little earlier. Hey, you know I would have loved that. There's a lot going on. You know I would have loved that. And I hoped for that from the beginning. I mean, just book us earlier, man. We didn't have a producer, Dan.

Oh, really? Yeah. Maybe we're finding out one of the problems. Yeah. Blake's like, you could have called me. Someone that books guests. Blake would have loved to leave us. No, I don't think so.

I think what y'all are doing is amazing. I love it. I love this setup. Yeah, you what y'all are doing is amazing. I love it. I love this. Slow down. I love this setup. Yeah, you like the place? I love the place. I love your home away from home or whatever you said. It could be our home.

You're going to live here? Well, wouldn't that be ironic, though, if my actual home was my home away from home? He's going back to the bit. Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah. Blake is annoyed. So did you say you were telling us before you got on the air, because of this monumental change in your life. Yeah. Yeah. Blake is annoyed. So did you say you were telling us before you got on the air because of this monumental change in your life? Yeah. That for some reason you were complaining, as ladies do.

Yeah. That someone else retweeted. I wasn't complaining. A picture of you crying. Just commenting. And I was like, well, wait, you're the one who put a picture of yourself crying on twitter oh yeah yeah okay is that what you did i bet she didn't though let's talk through this how come there's a picture of you crying somewhere well i've i have cried i'm

not gonna lie and say that i haven't cried um and it is real and part of uh the mom game which is the podcast that i've now had with emily j for four years, it's survived a lot of things. And I'm so glad I kept it up throughout all of this because obvious reasons. Survived the pandemic? Yeah, it survived a lot. That's why you start your own stuff, right? Like, that's why you do your own thing and you own your own ass. Can I cuss here?

Fuck no. I just never want to. I don't know. That's why you own your own s can i cuss here um fuck no i just i just never want to i don't know that's why you own your own shit that's why you create your own stuff and you own it shit by us okay go ahead yeah um so on that show we're very real and we're very honest and um i was honest on our show which we just shot yesterday about like all of the different emotions or whatever and that's what that clip has there's a little bit of it's like I'm not crying but like

just after cry face so I'm not like but I'm like so hot I'm almost like that and so I'm like puffy face red eye kind of a Zellweger yeah beasting yeah it's very beasting but not like pretty beasting. That doesn't exist.

Nope. Zellweger has pretty beasting. You don't think so? I don't, but you know, I support women. I think she's nailed puff face. Some people have. It's a market that's cornered. It's not like.

So wait, that was a really long story so you could say that you did tweet out a picture. Yeah, and I'm like not ashamed of it. It's a full video. You're trying to shame me. Oh, a whole video of you crying. No, what I'm explaining is the beginning is the post-cry face. Yeah. And then I like and then the second little clip is...

Yeah, I like pre-cry or like crying in fear. That's really good. Yeah? But not after crying. Okay. Well, next time we post a clip, I'll ask you what you want. Signing an NDA. What type of crying you want me to do. So that's what it was.

It was a little bit of that, and then the rest was post-cry. So it's not like a full-on cry clip, but it is like... Okay. Is Emily just laughing? No. You can't believe how funny this is? She's lighting up her victory cigar. i told you it would fail yeah i remember her saying it would fail right away she never said that emily's the best not to you emily is the best um but yeah so i was i was cool

with the clip going out is my point but it's still shocking to like kind of see it go out and it was like you know brad townsend or you know someone like that that retweets it someone it could have been him it could have been someone else yeah what if adam silver sees it he's going to everybody from the nba universe i'm saying that it's cool it's cool i i see i put him in high regard so it's not a you know whatever it's cool that he retweeted it but it's just it's shocking a little bit to see it i'll say it brad townsend will retweet a female on you really really doesn't even have to be 18 either is that in his mo

all right all right i'm glad this is blake and i've been sitting on this i didn't know he was in that category you guys have all these little bits that you can't... I should make this public. If it comes up... Not my bit. You know, but it's... Oh, now Blake's backing away. Yeah, he is.

Well, it's tough to hide the receipts. I mean, the retweets and the quote-unquote cry emojis. He and I are not the only ones that have caught on. No, it's a popular thing in many, boys chats around so is it dallas fort worth i imagine just is it like older dudes don't understand what you're liking or is it retweeting yeah i think he does it's not a doesn't understand type thing it's that there's like this group of um i would say probably 16 to 21 year old female mavss fans that are really, really into the Mavs. And shockingly, um,

they will get a ton of followers from Mavs people. Okay. And so they are really into the Mavs. Like they'll post pictures of them at Mavs ball. They go to game. Yeah. I see some of this super locked in and, uh,

you know, it's younger. Yeah. They're young girls, but I don't, they'll post selfies on you. Yeah. And Brad will retweet if, you know it's young girls yeah they're young girls but i don't they'll post selfies on you yeah and brad will retweet if you know whatever he'll retweet it with like a cry laugh emoji when it didn't really need that

it didn't deserve a cry laugh emoji i mean cry laugh is like one of the highest order laugh emojis like that means it made you laugh so hard you cry. Yeah. You can't just be throwing that out there. Well, maybe that's what you were doing. Irresponsibly. Yeah. Maybe that's what you were doing with the crying. I don't know what I was doing, Dan. You were just emotional.

I don't know, man. I told you before I came in, I'm in a weird place. I'm in a weird place. And, yeah, just, it's just like a newfound level of, I know it's going to be okay, but it is a newfound level of anxiety. And that's what made me cry. Well, you're telling yourself, I know it's going to be okay, but it is a newfound level of anxiety. And that's what makes it bad. Well, you're telling yourself, I know it's going to be okay, but you don't actually know that. Okay.

It might be terrible. You're right. I just want to bring you back to reality and have you moving forward. She's not going to end up homeless though. Probably, but. Like you? Yeah, when you're a nice looking lady like Julie, you're never going to end up homeless. What does that mean?

I'm not going to sell myself. You're not going to sell yourself, but let's just say all really went awry. Then you hook up with a sugar daddy or something. I'm just saying. I'm married though. I can't do that. Well, we're- I canceled myself out of that business.

You're not married. Something's gone wrong there. The point is, a nice looking lady does not end up homeless. Yeah. Can you agree with that? Except for, I guess, that one I texted you about. Or no, I was on the phone with you the other day. Yeah.

There was a real hot homeless girl. I think. I'm like, Jake, all right. Right when you get on Woodall Rogers, look to the right. No. Under the bridge. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She was gone.

What do you mean hot? I mean, now we're probably talking homeless hot, but still. I think if you get addicted to drugs, you could end up... I've never seen a homeless person that's... I've never seen a homeless hot. Okay.

Well, then that goes back to my earlier theory that you won't end up hot or homeless because you are hot. It's also possible she has some marketable skills. That is possible. Oh, yeah and you always you're really good at stuff that is possible thank you but i'm just saying at the very end of the very end the very end you're still nice looking well thanks yeah i mean i don't think i'm trying to give you a compliment i don't think i'll end up ladies don't want compliments anymore they don't't want my hugs? It's woke. Yeah. I used to walk in and hug every woman in the office, and they loved it.

You never were a hugger? Were you? It is wild to think about. Talking about the sheriff. Remember that story? There was a sheriff in South Texas somewhere. Oh, yeah, he mandated hugs. Yeah, he got banned from hugging. Mandated front hugs.

He was like, oh, everybody loved my hugs every day. I hugged every woman in the office every day. It was very strange to be, this is like within the last, I would say, five to seven years, seeing people in positions of leadership where we used to work that would just hug female employees. Yeah. I thought that was so weird. Especially in the last few years, right? I mean, even before that, I just don't, you know, I could see if it were, and I'll just,

it wasn't always a guy who was 70. Right. Well, I'm trying to think who you're talking about. Yeah, I don't know. His position of leaders, I can think of a few huggers, but they were not. Well, they weren't hugging you. They weren't. Damn. I should feel sad. Aren't you sad? Yeah.

I wasn't hot enough. Too intimidating. It was probably just right after I had kids. Cut me some slack. Yeah, no one wants to hug that. Yeah. I'm still working off the baby weight. Damn it! Why was I not hugged? Well, I'm glad you don't have a job

anymore because you're here today. Thanks. That allows us to have a slightly better show today. So isn't it all worth it? Of course. She loses her salary and her health benefits. Yeah. So that we can have a tiny bit of an improvement on one show.

Yeah. I can provide a little bit of background noise for you. You can only worry about your own house, Dan. That's right. I don't mean to like just keep talking but one of the one of the weird bad things when they never do when something like this happens is like everyone comments right everything about you and one that i loved was like she was good as background noise for dan and jake so that's why i made that's

why i just made that joke i'll just be here for background noise. If y'all want anything specific, just let me know. I can do like animal noises, laughter, clapping. Where they said she was good, you know? Yeah.

Yeah. That's what I'm trying to do. Tell me if you want applause or I can make any kind of noise, whatever you need. I bet this didn't really happen with us because it was kind of on our terms, but does it feel like getting,

like the sort of things people would say about you, your own funeral? Yeah. Like everyone's everyone's just like oh she's so sweet and here's what i liked about her like you don't get that i've always been a big fan of the idea that we should do at some point in your life your birthday should basically be like a funeral yeah and people actually tell you maybe they have mean things to say like some people do at funerals but mostly they're just like, here's what I think of this guy. Yeah, it is kind of a waste that everyone says all the nice things about you when you're like under the ground.

Probably because that's the only way that you can get people to only say nice things about you. That's true. Because there's no recourse or retribution. Yeah. Yeah. Man, the human condition. What are you going to do?

I don't know. I have a couple stories for you guys, and I'm sure we'll talk. Julie job. Julie, no jobs. You like that? Yeah. I don't know. I'm here.

I'm existing. I'll do whatever y'all want to do. We can go in whatever order and hang out. You like my shirt, though? I love it. I'm very glad. We didn't even tell her. Yeah, Jake texted us. He's like, I'm going to wear a Hawaiian

shirt for Julie today. And I already had my Starz shirt on for Julie. I was thinking Julie right when I woke up. And yeah, then I also grabbed the Hawaiian shirt and thought, you know what? I'm just going to keep this in the studio. I love that. Anytime I and thought, you know what? I'm just going to keep this in the studio. I love that.

Yeah, I had a moment. And anytime I'm here, I can just fire up the octopus. And this is the only one I have right now. Oh, really? I have like 70 of them. Yeah, but I moved. What did you do with them all? We moved out of our house.

Oh, that's fine. Oh. We're in a rent house. You're remodeling. Yes. So brief story on that. I have two stories. Guilty as charged today.

So we are in a rent house um right by dan's house oh that's so cute yeah it really is we live down the street like in the back but it wasn't like intentional and people have asked me that it really is there's a scarcity of rent houses for a three-month term in the suburbs yeah i imagine that'd be hard to find it's pretty hard to find and when you do find it they charge you uh a butt load right because a lot of times that's being paid for by a corporate like relocation like oh i'm in town to work here for three months or my house burned down and an insurance company will pay for it right we're not in either one of those categories so we're paying an exorbitant amount of money more than than our mortgage. Like, by a good margin. And yesterday, we had a big

business meeting power lunch. And I was going to go get in the shower. It was like 10, 15. I had kind of timed things out to where I could leave on time. Leave myself some space. So I go to the bathroom and I turn on the shower and the shower

gives me no water. I'm like, okay. Is this thing clogged? The water's off. Nothing out of the shower head. Nothing. Nothing out of the sink. Oh my gosh.

Yeah, and I would think, because I know what you're paying in rent, that would be quite You think it would come with water? Stick around. Yeah. that would be oh well uh you think it would come with water stick around yeah because then probably i don't know 45 minutes later when i was getting ready to leave the power went off and then last night when i so okay so i'll tell you what I know about those two things. First, I was steamed to put it lightly because I'm like,

dude, we're getting absolutely bent over on this. Are we talking first of the month bills and so pay or something? So that's what I thought at first. I'm like, well, we're paying you this much for this house. At least just keep the utilities on.

The lady's been a little bit tough to get a hold of, but it's been fine, whatever. We haven't needed much. So wife gets a hold of her and the lady's like, oh, I'm so sorry. I'm going through a divorce and the rent house is in my name, but all the utilities are in my husband's name. And I guess he's just been shutting off the accounts.

Sounds like not your problem. I know, but I'm a little more sympathetic than get up crackhead. It now is your problem. It is my problem. So the lady's super apologetic. The problem is she can't just pay the bill. She has to have that account transferred into her name and then pay the bill. Yeah.

So the water came back on at about six. The power came back on at about six. The power came back on at about five. So then I'm sitting there last night watching the Mavs game, and with five minutes left in the fourth quarter, the internet goes. Oh, my God. And you don't have direct TV. You have streaming. Yeah.

I mean, I was able to just hotspot it to my phone. But still, you can watch it on your phone, but streaming on the big TV, that have streaming. Yeah, I mean, I was able to just hotspot it to my phone. Yeah. You can watch it on your phone, but streaming on the big TV, that's not done. I watch a lot of games on my computer, and I was able to just do it on the computer, but it's not optimal. Yeah. So this morning- You can walk over, you know.

You live that close to me. There were four minutes left in the game. I wasn't awake. It wasn't much of a game at that point. Yeah, you didn't get to see Jaden Hardy take over? I did. I just saw it on a very tiny or actually very large phone screen. That's right.

It was like your TV at home. It was like your TV, basically. Yeah, I mounted my phone. So this morning, I'm like, listen, when you call her today, be like, is there anything else we need to know about? Yeah. Like, is the trash going to stop coming to the house? Uh.

That's right. If you don't pay the city, what? Well, that's water. I know, but most cities have waste and water. Yeah. So I wonder if you just don't pay your city, do they also not pick up your trash? Like, does the. I bet not.

Does the garbage man have a little list of... There's no way they know. I think... They just got to go down the street and pick up everything. That's what I would think. Well, so there are some places that have it set... It's just built in. There are some places that do it separately.

But you actually pay a separate waste management company. Okay. They would definitely... I'm pretty sure the city of Southlake though. They do. It's together. Yeah. So maybe,

I don't know. Fortunately, I won't have to find out. Because they don't want woke trash. Woke trash. Woke trash picked up. Got my gnome chomps. They have Patriot Trash is picking it up.

Yeah. Yeah. So that's been a fun adventure. Patriot Trash. Speaking of that, I told you guys the other day day we were having a phone call after the show and i just pulled up to the rec center slash library in grapevine ah voting yeah and so i've told you guys before that when i go to vote in like the local elections people don't

really mess with you too much for like 80 democratic primary or even the presidential election i mean it just seems like nobody really messes with you at those there's a ton of signs but nobody messes with you but the last two times i went to vote in a local election it was like city council and school board i got bombarded by people and they were old trying to get you to their side yeah there were there was a guy who was probably 65 he was I got bombarded by people. And they were old. Trying to get you to their side? Yeah. There was a guy who was probably 65.

He was decked out in all the MAGA stuff. And he wanted to engage. And I matched him at the beginning. And then he got frustrated. And then it turned out. It turned into a pretty protracted argument. And he's like. What do you mean you matched him And he's like, uh...

What do you mean you matched him? He's like, you... Jake is a political science major. So you were, like, going and kind of arguing back and forth with him? Just at the beginning, he's kind of cordial. And then when I gave him my cordial version of no, he was like, well, why? And I'm like, well, here's why.

You had a new third person. Now it's time to talk about why. And he's like, aren't you worried about critical race theory? And I'm like, you don't even know what the fuck that is. I was like, you just heard that on television. And he's like, I'll explain it to you. And he started and I was like, that's wrong. You know, whatever.

This went on for probably five minutes. I'd like to see that someday. But as I told you guys a couple of weeks ago. Rewind the clock a little to get teed up, Jake. And it was like nine o'clock in the morning on a Saturday. You had time. Yeah, I had time. You had time today.

So I told you guys a couple weeks ago that I got pulled over for not having my registration sticker on. Like I got it done and didn't put it on. I'm a dummy. And the guy was very friendly. Very young. He was very, very friendly. Very young. He was very, very young. He was probably in his mid to late 20s.

Was he hot? Maybe cop hot. Yeah. Yeah. Uniform makes him hotter? Yeah. And I was, for the first time in a long time, just extremely compliant and cordial. He asked me where I was going.

I told him. For the first time in a long time. Yeah. Cause I usually it's like, I don't have to answer that question. Yeah. Jake knows all the amendments and the rules. But I only know him cause there's people, you know,

that'll, if you look around on Twitter that you can find out exactly what to do during. He knows his constitutional rights. Yeah. And they don't like that, but they really can't do anything about it. Except give you that ticket for sure. Yeah. But I hadn't been pulled over in a really long time,

so either I was out of practice or I just am a changed person. So you need to know that before I play you this. So this is from, and the audio is a little shaky because I'm outside, I'm on a phone, and it's windy. Is this voting day? Yeah. So are you going to vote? Yes. So you get that? Can you hear it at all? Are you going to vote What's up? Are you going to vote? Yes.

So you get that? Can you hear it at all? Are you going to vote? Yeah. What's up? Are you going to vote? Yes. Are you going to vote for him?

Yeah. Awesome. Are we getting your vote? What's up? Are we getting your vote? You are not. Okay. No.

That's all right. No, it's okay. So we're good there, right? Are we getting your vote? No. And he says, that's all right. Now. So you knew what was coming?

Yeah, they had the shirts on. Okay. And he's approaching you. What is there, school board? Yeah, there's all right. Now. So you knew what was coming. Yeah, they had the shirts on. Okay. And he's approaching you. What is this, school board? Yeah, there's two school board positions because the Grapevine Collingville school board, the Southlake school board, it's a mess. So one is like Patriot. Yeah.

A lot of them are, as you're about to hear, funded by Patriot Mobile, which is a far right Christian extremist cell phone company, which for some reason exists. Totally necessary. It's a front for political contributions. They use Verizon's network. It's not like they have a tower. Yeah.

You know? So they've been just obliterating, like people who were teachers for a long time and principals for a long time, and now they're 65 and they're on the school board, like they're career educators. and they actually will have little battles to see who's far enough to the right. I was going to say, for some reason, too, they're attacking their own sometimes, right?

Yeah. It's real conservative people that you thought were real conservative. They're like, oh, no, you're not. Not enough. You suck. Not enough. So the guy, we could have ended it here with, you are not. He's like all

right that's cool okay no that's all right no it's all good i think the whole like uh extremist christian cell phone company funding candidates thing was probably like the the breaking point for me you know yeah you do identify with some other things though so do you hear what he said there what do you identify with some other things, though? So do you hear what he said there? What? Do you identify with some other things, though? So now he's trying to see, like, well, maybe if you look at the platform. We've got to have some common ground. And see past that issue, there's some things which, trust me, there aren't. Do you identify with some other things, though?

That was a pretty big turnoff, so that might have been the deal breaker. But appreciate you guys. That was nice, Jake. Fairly cordial. Yeah. That was cordial. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was cordial. Yeah.

So I went in and I voted. And then when I got done voting, I went over to the rec center. They're connected. Do a little jog, a little sauna. And probably taking a lead from Dan, there are three options for the locker room at that rec. There's the men's, there's the women's, and there's the family. Now, the family might sound creepy, but what it really is is it's a locker room

where they have four on one side, four on the other of individual changing rooms. So you can go in there, lock the door, and you have space to change and do whatever there's a i would absolutely go there i do it every time like you have room there's a toilet in the room the family restroom is the best thing like in a movie theater oh yeah you're not supposed to use it though i know family i don't but this the worst thing is when you walk out and there's like a lady there with her two kids yeah she's just glaring at you falling out of the diaper and

it's like hey really needed the space people look at me a little bit funny but i know someone that works there and they're like dude i do it yeah like it's a nice space but you do still have lockers on the outside of the changing rooms so i put my stuff in the locker i'm gonna go run uh you gotta enter a code right a four digit code um they make you enter it twice so i i turned the lock what six nine six nine of course i didn't even have to ask so i did that and i finished my workout and i went back in there and i couldn't get the locker to open oh so now you have to go to the front desk i was like uh and kind of tell on yourself it's like but you're hoping to find your buddy yeah i'm in the family oh you're in the family yeah so i had to go yeah and it was and it was

a probably early 20s in the car early 20s feet she had to follow me back to the family changing room and uh she's like well let's try the code that you have first. Oh, now you have to tell her 6969? I was like, yeah. And she's like, let's see. We need to see if it's malfunctioning. My dad's birthday, June 9th, 1969. So maybe I can. I was like, code 6969.

She's like, okay. It's not working. Yeah, but Dan, you've seen a movie how it starts like that, right? Oh, yeah. I've seen this movie for sure. Next thing you know, we're in a family changing room. Then she walked over and she locked the door. So then she opened it with her manual code and I sheepishly had to walk back by the front

desk where she works after I had changed. That's embarrassing. That's good stuff. That was a tough day. So what did you learn? To not use the family bathroom or not use that code? Honestly, I don't even think you have to lock your stuff up. I don't take a wallet in there.

Would somebody get to steal my car? I keep my phone and my headphones on me. It's just a towel and flip-flops or a towel and an extra shirt. Or your keys. They could steal your car, yes. If you grab someone's keys now, you just walk through the parking lot and have to hit the button. I'm just trying to imagine this scenario because you can shut it and it looks closed. It just doesn't lock.

So somebody's going to go through every open locker and be like, oh, there's keys in this towel. I'll take my chances. And then you don't have to remember a code. There you go. I wouldn't have to remember it because there's only one code. You're going to stick with it despite the embarrassment?

One strike is not enough. You should have been watching her to see what the master code is. Honestly, I was kind of at first, and then I felt like she kind of side-eyed me. Yeah. And I turned away like you do when someone's getting money at the ATM. Yeah. I don't want to look.

I don't want to look. I'm not trying to look. Yeah. Or when you're a woman in a cowboy's locker room, and the guys are changing that same look away. Like, I'm not trying to look. I'm just here. It's working. Yeah, you know what? We've never talked about that.

I've always thought that's weird just being a dude. Yeah, it's real weird. And seeing Dong hanging out yeah yeah but if it's uh you know you especially like young you too right yeah yeah yeah you're not really it was my first job out of college didn't to hit on you yeah yeah he did was he wearing a towel uh yeah i mean it was it was more of a Like a long I know it's long, I would think it's long

Oh dear Yeah, when you look at T.O., I'm like, yeah I never saw that See, before she becomes homeless, she always has T.O. to fall back on That's right I'm not sure there's much to fall back on there these days But you could try I'm sure he's got an apartment

Last I saw, did y'all see the video of him that surfaced where he's really mad at some Karen that lived in his development in L.A.? That sounds vaguely familiar, yeah. Yeah, I don't think he's doing very well. But no, yeah, it was an interesting

time period being thrown into the workforce and into the Cowboys locker room. You know, I personally know two Karens who are great. Like their name is Karen. Well, I don't.

And they're really bothered by this. I would be too. I don't know. I had a friend's mom growing up who was, she didn't know it yet, but she was a Karen and her name was Karen. Oh, maybe she's.

But as I think back on it, Karen was named after. She might be patient zero. Yeah. She's the one. That's how it all began. Oh, we got to promote one more thing. I was not going to force you into it, but I was waiting.

The Raymond thing? Yeah, at the beginning we were doing promotion stuff. But then we had to do Julie. Oh, is that what you were trying to push me into later? Yeah. Okay, sorry. They've lost it. They've lost their chemistry.

you're trying to push me into later yeah okay sorry yeah they've lost it they've lost their chemistry east of it e6 sportswear uh raymond wanted us to promote that they have new shirts up on the site and i guess they're like kind of state-based yeah we got listeners all over yeah so you could buy your your texas shirt with dumb zone logo in it. That's pretty badass, actually. That's very cool. He's got a big contest going on as well. So if you buy a shirt, you could win $690, he claims. So go to the website. We'll put the website in the show notes. But what is it, Blake?

Because I don't know it. The website? It's Dumb Zone Merchandise. No, what is it? Like just life. Yes, I'm talking about the website. No, what is it? Like, just life. But yes, I'm talking about the website. What else would I say? I don't know.

It's up there on your screen, E6 Sportswear. How many people are listening compared to watching? Don't you miss it? Most people are listening. Dumbzonemerch.com. That'll redirect you right to the store. That's all I was asking. We could have just been done with this 10 minutes ago

Merch is short for merchandise I didn't know we had dumbzonemerch.com We do How about that? This is fun Look at these states Can you name them all? Or did you just put one on the other side?

No, one side is this Julie has a Like all women women do, a 128-ounce Stanley cup. Yeah. That was probably $95. It wasn't $95. Like, I don't know, maybe $30. So it's a freak cup. Bullshit.

And now it's a freak slash. That was not $30. What was it? Maybe $40? I have one. I would say between $40 and $50. They're great cups. It costs way too much for a cup, though.

I use it every single day. It's amazing. They're elite cups. I will give you that. They're elite. I have a Freak sticker, and now the Freak's dead. But even before the Freak was dead, I had my Dumb Zone sticker on the other side. Lovely.

So I was just drinking it, and I just made a point to turn it around. Now I need to rip this bad boy off. No, you don't need to do that. Well, the Freak is dead. You can have memories. Yeah, it's a collector's item that. Well, the freak is dead. You can have memories. Yeah, it's a collector's item. I mean, I still have... You're wearing a Hang Zone shirt. Yeah, but this is like the second,

you know, the reincarnation of the hang zone. Yeah, but the Hang Zone's dead. Actually... Legally. I actually still have my... It's been legally killed. My Ford Explorer wrapped like the ticket hummer from the 90s. Yeah. Your Ford Explorer? Yeah, have it wrapped.

I mean, just because it's... I don't work there anymore. It's time for the sports portion of today's program. What do you got, Julie? You said you were prepared with tons of sports. Oh, yeah. I was thinking I'd lead this segment because I've watched everything

and been super locked in. My brain's in a great spot. She's like, I haven't seen a thing. I don't know what's going on. Does Kelly still watch the stars very closely? No. He doesn't? No.

Julie's husband was the former video coach for the stars. Yeah, for 14 years he worked for them. This is his first year. He taught everyone how to watch video. It was a lot more than that. He was a coach. Well, I mean, you're a coach first everyone how to how to watch video it was a lot more than that he was a coach well i'm your coach you're coaching how to do video he used the video as his form of coaching um but yeah it was it's his first season not doing that i applied for their audio coach and uh they never responded how would that look what would audio coach i don't know but anyway let's talk mavs yeah

yeah right that's our big sports topic of the day besides i just thought it was interesting if somebody works somewhere for that long if you just leave what's your relationship to the to the former job it's weird it makes them have weird feelings to watch but he's happy for them and he actually went to the game last night he was invited by like a random golf friend and went i was like really you could have gone probably if you just asked for tickets but he went to the game um it would be weird to ask for tickets yeah i think it would be weird so we haven't gone but we did watch i've been following i'm still you know we're still stars fans i can talk hockey with y'all i just haven't been as locked in as i used to be when we did a show together so that's

the only reason i said that to you. But yeah, let's talk sports, DFW. Let's do it. What a night. Yeah, last night was awesome. It was. It synced up almost perfectly. It was great.

If you wanted to watch both live, which I did, with some brief like bath time breaks, try to time those around intermissions. But it was perfect. It was like six straight hours of dominant Dallas sports. I started the Stars game behind at maybe like 7.45 or 8 o'clock, and I was able to skip through every intermission, commercial break, and I caught up with the Mavs game with about four minutes left.

I mean, I timed it perfectly. Nice. So you didn't watch a commercial all night? No. That is good. Yesterday, I had a couple of people, Mavs type people, who were preparing me for, hey, he's just not right. Like, this is bad. Luka. Yeah, with all the things piling up. Well, going into a pivotal Game 5. It was so pivotal, Kevin Harlan and Jamal Crawford, but everyone that I talked to about that. 82% of the time a team wins a Game 5. He's so great, though.

They did the same thing during the Stars game. I think 79%. Yeah. They have to tell you, pivotal, pivotal, pivotal, pivotal, pivotal. He is good. I like Kevin Harlan. Everyone that I had that conversation with Luca about, we were like, okay, well, he's either going to be complete butt tonight and miss everything and look slow, or somehow

he's going to have one of the best playoff games of his career. It's hard to imagine anything in between, and he went with the latter. And he looked so slow at the beginning. Looked like he was laboring. Have you ever seen really terrible Luka, though? I'm trying to think. The other day he was getting criticized. He was 29-10-10 or 29-9-9.

Paul George will throw a shitty game out on you. Yeah, you're right. Like Luka never has those. No. He's usually tired, Luka, I guess, sometimes. Or like, you know, in his like, I don't want to say fat Luka phase because I wasn't a fan of fat Luka, but there was a phase where maybe he was a little

bit slower. But even at the start of the series, like he just looked bloated. He just didn't look good. So the sick thing makes sense. So he had a cold? Yeah. I have a little bit of audio on that. But right out of the gate, it's Kyrie's show.

Like we talked about the other day. Like, alright, they're going to have to do something to help Luke out here. He was very intentionally taking over, although he wasn't scoring a ton. What did he have, four, six after the first quarter? Yeah, he was getting people open. Even in the whole first half, yeah.

It was awesome to see, like, you know, there was possessions where Luca didn't touch the ball. Yeah, but usually in the beginning of games, Kyrie is kind of hanging back. Yeah. And this time, yes, it's kind of like they talked or even what they were all talking about after the game the other day. Like

Luca felt bad that he wasn't there for Kyrie and Kyrie is like, yeah, I needed to read that room a little bit better and assert myself. And I guess that's what happened. They're the best of friends. It looked like it. On that failed two-on-one last night that Kyrie then scrambled

for and got a Derek Jones, I think it was Derek Jones, dunk. Watching them come off the floor together looked like a couple of old haggard buddy cops. How about Derek Jones? Frisco zone? Just saying. I don't know that. Oh, he's been great, man.

I really don't like juniors, but I like the Mavs juniors very much right now. Well, One-Om's not playing at all. And it's probably a good thing. It probably is a good thing. One of the juniors. Yeah, the juniors who are playing, though. Yeah.

I've really fallen in love with. And, yeah, I mean, obviously, I don't know if this is a championship run. If it is, that's sweet. Might even have a couple bucks on that. I don't know if this is a championship run. If it is, that's sweet. Might even have a couple bucks on that. I don't know. I'm sure you do, right? PJ's. Yeah.

PJ Washington is the other one that's a junior. And he's from Dallas. Currently playing. Oh, okay. That's what I was mixing up. Yeah. No, Derek Jones Jr. is a freaking spark plug. Yeah.

And he can actually put it on the floor a little bit if he has to, which is great as Reggie and Dorian were. That wasn't happening. Playing a little defense. Oh, a lot of defense. A lot of defense, yeah. He was all over Harden. Yeah.

That was great to see. I thought it was interesting, too, that they went to Livelymore and played him with Maxie at times. They went to Livelymore, yes, because heading into this game, Kidd was like kind of sticking with his bit of yeah, we're going to give Harden all the floaters he wants. We want to make sure

he's not hitting threes. And the flip side of that is that they wanted to have Maxie out there to stretch the floor for Luka and Kyrie as the only big. So if Maxie is shooting like that, that's going to be very effective. I think we said this the other day after one of their losses. It might have been game one when I was like

Maxie was not good yesterday. I think Blake said, I don't think Maxie's good period anymore. And all my thought was, which we both said was yeah, but there's going to be a game where he hits just a ton of threes out of nowhere and it will swing the game like it did against Utah three years ago. Yeah, game one, he wasn't even standing in the right spots. There was a fast break where he just stood in the way of Luka, and Luka got very upset with him.

But, yeah, if he hits five threes, and I think his lone miss hit the side of the backboard. Yeah, that's weird when that happens. It's that off. So he hit four threes the backboard. Yeah, that's weird when that happens, you know? It's that off. So he hit four threes, like, all in the second quarter. And at that time, did I hear Kevin Harlan say the Mavs were, the other Mavs were one of 21. Wow.

For threes at that time. And I think the, yeah, so there was one, one might have been P.J. But they're still winning, like, whatever. Derek Jones. Derek Jones. Yeah. Yeah. That's right.

But every other Yeah Luka couldn't buy one Until But then Just Late the third Yes

All the options That they seem to have Right now You might get a Gafford Lob dunk Or a Lively lob dunk

Or a You might get a Gafford Rough That's good for Isn't it great though For Maxie to see a game like that and didn't he finish with more than kairi point totals i think he'd like one more point than kairi did maxi in a playoff

game yes the clippers in the first round and a lot of people were like blake throughout the season and kind of wanted him out of the lineup like didn't want him even playing but he was he hung tough because he was in there helping out defensively right even when he couldn't buy a shot and now to see him helping the team win games when Luca might be a little off or sick or whatever I just love the way the team is kind of showing that they have Luca's back and it doesn't have to be Luca it doesn't have to be Kyrie and that's what you need in the playoffs if it's going to be a long run and that's what we're seeing.

It's awesome because we didn't know, especially after game one, if the Mavs were going to be versatile enough, I guess, to win this series. So it's exciting. They can win in different ways. Yeah. It was brought to my attention that perhaps Maxie's balling out so hard because all the – we were talking about this before you got here, Dan. The WNBA is kind of getting

hot. They're having a moment. It's going to be more than a moment. I don't just mean popular. What do you mean? Because of your hot lady that's entering in. So the four members of the LA team were

at midcourt before the game yesterday. They're hot now. Four of them were hot? Four for four? Yeah. And it was put forth to me. Maybe Maxie was like, all right. Showing off.

Is he single? I think so. Nice. Can you imagine those babies? nice um you imagine those babies um i would yes you commit your number one draft choice to them in 20 whatever 40 the other maxi note did you enjoy uh people saying that i didn't even check this but so it it can't be true but somebody put out there that uh dirk's not even the leader and made playoff threes from wurzburg germany is that true you know he wasn't shooting a ton of threes you know he was drilling them for that era but right right right that's it's possible um but there's no way to find out that's the problem

uh i was concerned early when Kidd loses a challenge. That was a weird challenge, too. I didn't think that had a prayer. Yeah. The lively elbow on Harden. And Harden, you know, I think they were trying to send a message, hey, this guy just keeps yanking his head back to get these fouls. Kyrie did it again last night.

Yeah. But then that, I guess, allowed the, or, you know, you couldn't get Kyrie, the Kyrie play where he's diving for the ball and he got called for a foul, even though he was the first to touch it. That would have been overturned. That would have been overturned. But I never know what to do. I guess the point is, yes, if it's really egregious and you really know you're

going to win, do it early. But if it's 50-50, no, it it's really egregious and you really know you're going to win, do it early. But if it's 50-50, no, it didn't end up mattering. By the time Kyrie is diving for the ball, they're probably up 10 or 15 and then that third quarter, they just kind of went nuts. As a general rule, I would never challenge a play in the first half.

Never? Never. I mean, what if it's real? Just in case? Unless the game is already getting out of hand on you, but if it's real, like, so just in case? I mean, unless the game is already getting out of hand on you, but if it's usually games in the first half or. Is there a time when it goes to just automatic or never? You always, like, is there 30 seconds left in the game? You have to have that challenge in your pocket?

I can't remember. It might be the last two minutes, but. Like in the NFL? Yet again, there's no way to find out. No, no, no. That's why I'm asking you. So at the end of that third, so the Mavs had an unbelievable third quarter. That's where they won the game for sure, right?

I mean, what were they up at half? Ten? I think that sounds right. 56-46, yeah. Okay, so then by the third, and they go on a huge run. They're up 23. Luka had a 9-0 run on his own. Another Luka stat.

We love Luka stats. They put it up on the screen. Third fewest games to 1,000 playoff points. I love when I see stuff like that because I know that the rest of the country, or the basketball country anyways, is watching. And you know there's only, you can always name the two people. If he's third in something, you can name the two, right? Wilton, Jordan.

Yeah, and that's what it was. But, so now here we're at the end of the third. So the Clippers are still, the Mavs are up like 15 at this point still, Blake, with the audio you turned me on to? I thought it was more than that. Okay, they're up by a ton. Anyway, Clippers have a little mini run going. Pretty small, but here, let's hear the audio.

Because we like to talk about momentum here, and they do on the game too. And sets up with a shot clock at nine and a three. And another one. George sinks two in a row from distance now here comes the biggest stop here for the Clippers if they can get a stop and score at the other end have a little momentum going into that fourth nine two Clipper run there's the difference of seven seconds. Game clock and shot clock. Winding down the third. Tucker is in there again on Dachshunds.

They'll double him with Westbrook. In the corner. Green free. Hit by Plumlee. It goes down. Plumlee the foul. Could be a four-point play. This is huge here.

Josh Green puts it in. And you've got to run to the side of him if you're Mason Plumlee here. You've got to know time score. He's got a little bit of slop voice, doesn't he? Reggie? Reggie? You've got to know time score. Your team is on a roll right here. You were on

a 9-2. And then you foul here. Josh Green sending him to the line for a potential four-point play. Talk about a momentum kill. Green at the line, 7 of 8 this series, and hits one right there. You're right. The momentum was definitely making a turn.

It turns. They got it back, though. Yeah. It was the talk about. Talk about. That was. Yeah. It was the talk about. I mean, they started with. That was the slop. It was the slop tea. They didn't really have momentum at the beginning, right?

He said, if they can get a stop. That's a good point. And get another bucket. Then you've got some momentum. They would have won the game. They probably would have won the game because they would have momentum at that point. And at that point, you also have momentum in the series the series right because then you'd be up three games 80 you go to sleep with it you take it home you cuddle with it yeah wake up you have breakfast

with it uh dirk way more playoff threes really yeah dirk 149 maxi 56 no no single game okay yeah maxi hit eight against Utah. Oh, then I don't know what I saw. But that's crazy it's even that close. What was the total? Dirk basically tripled. He has 140 more. Yeah, 149.

Okay. Yeah, so that was a terrible tweet. And that's why you shouldn't go look things up, Blake. That's why we're running a gun. We should have just let it be. Yeah, it was a lot better when you just say it and we don't follow up on it. Don't fact check. You know what?

I was even thinking that about when I was telling you that I listened to the whole Rogan-Akash thing. Mm-hmm. And you think about Rogan and what people say about Rogan and everything.

I guess he had had like, who's the big right-wing guy? Tucker Carlson. That got fired. Yeah, he had Tucker Carlson on. And then I told you, Rogan's show seems to be, he just wants to do Rogan stuff, but then he's got someone else in there to listen and nod to him. And that's what Akash's role was for like the first hour.

And then he was like, oh man, you know the CIA actually did this with Richard Nixon and blah blah blah. And he's like, Akash's like, I don't know, I don't know I don't know and he goes here let me play this audio for you and it's Tucker Carlson you know laying out how the CIA is the one that got rid of I don't know I don't even remember and then at the end of the clip

Rogan's like I mean I didn't really look it up or anything I think it's probably I mean he said it he does that a lot like he's I'm not going to look it up that That's how a lot of people got COVID. Yeah. Hey, by the way, I'm going to congratulate myself. It was not a bad tweet because it is technically true.

What is it? Maxie has made eight threes that one time, and he made five last night. Dirk, career high five in a game so it is true that dirk does not hold the record for career high mavs threes in a game yeah he made five player from the most he ever made was five which is what maxi did last night yeah he's laughing at dirk and maxi made eight ones but that's the only one hired. So Maxie just needs 20 more of those games. Yeah.

He's right there. And he'll be right there with you. Right there. I mean, heck, he's got 13 more this year. Any other Mavs stuff, audio, anything you want to do? Is that right, 13 more? What? Mavs games this year?

Oh, I hope. I could play the NBA TNT clip that was going around. So Blake doesn't care anymore. He's checked out. It's not really Dan's bit. What? I'm pretty into it, but not near as into it as the real hip-hop heads, but the Drake and Kendrick Lamar situation.

Oh, okay. Yeah, I told you I'm aware of it. This is Euphoria, the song that dropped? It's been going on for a month. Kendrick Lamar, probably my favorite, if not ever, certainly currently. Drake, can't stand it. I've never liked him. Just don't get it at all.

And the song that Kendrick lamar just put out is a it's pretty personal it gets uh quite a bit beyond what your normal rap beef track does so i thought it was odd that coming back from break at halftime that's what they chose as their soundtrack maps led by eight clippers went nine to two to cut it to one Mavs go 13 to two And Kyrie goes to Daniel Gafford up top Ten point lead For the visitors

In a game five that will give some Talking about the mix Yeah it's bad The mix is really bad It's too much It's almost like they left the track loud to make sure you knew what they were playing. Yeah. That will give somebody the series lead before it goes back to Dallas for game six.

American Express Halftime Report, Studio J here in Atlanta. Ernie Johnson. Again, I cannot explain to you how scathing this song is. It's basically like wrecking somebody's career. Telling secrets they don't want out there. Talking about basically murder. scathing this song like it's basically like wrecking somebody's career telling secrets they don't want out there talking about basically murder and then it's just the the crew what a euphoria he has no idea what's going on. I think he does.

Ernie's around, but, you know, he might not know the ins and outs, but you can hear him go, a little euphoria. Is that euphoria, brother? Ernie's the me. We're in the middle of the rap beat. We're in the middle of the rap beat, man. Come on, man. DJ Dunz.

We're going to play one side. You've got to play the other. I hear that euphoria in the back, no doubt. By the way, the Mavs are shooting 50%. Bring it back to the game, Ernie. It's a cis boy. That's his life. Rap, rap, rap beef.

All right. So let's get back to what the... It's like that some producer that was like, find us the latest, coolest, hippest song. I know. To bring it back from break with. And their production crew is awesome. So they must be pretty dialed in. But bad news, guys.

Friday, we're screwed. What do you mean? Are they playing at the same time? 8.30 and 9. Oh, my gosh. What in the world? What do we do? Who's 8.30?

I'm pretty sure. Mavs are. Are they both at home? Yeah, they're sharing. They're doing kind of a half plan. They're splitting it down the middle. Kind of a half and half deal. Yeah, the Mavs are going to play where the Wings are going to play. The Dallas Dream.

Like half court. So yeah, I think the Mavs are at 830 because there's an East Coast game at 6. And then the Stars are at 9 because they're in a West Coast game. Sucks. So what's the perfect viewing situation? How do you make this work? I will tell you, and people who have YouTube TV probably know this, they have a multi-view.

Last night when the Stars started, I could see whoever, what, Heat, Celtics maybe? Can't remember, but they'll show you the two sporting events that are on, like the big ones at the same time. I didn't know that. Their multi-view has come a long way. It was great during the tournament.

Kind of gives me ADD brain. That's what I was going to say. Can y'all multi-view different sports? I can't. I think the perfect viewing scenario for me would be two separate rooms with the games on in either room. room just run back and forth like put a different shirt on like the road runner yeah that's exactly what you do

based on how you're feeling at that moment like i'm feeling like watching hockey right now i'm feeling like watching the maz well the hockey game's getting a little boring i'm gonna run into the mavericks room that's what i would like to do. One thing that's helpful, you can take advantage of the hockey intermission. Yes. It's huge. Like, what is it? 18 or 20 minutes? 18? 15? 15. 15. You can let that build up and it helps

a lot. Yeah, but you got to see Leah interview somebody. You know I don't. So she's y'all's new target. Well, last night it was Emily Kaplan who's just as creepy to me. She's creepy to me. Yeah. She's creepy to you? She doesn't annoy me the way that Leah does.

It is funny with Emily Kaplan because she was an ESPN hockey writer. And so she knows hockey well. And they'll just say, let's throw her up on the highest platform of hockey broadcast because she knows hockey, right? But no TV background and that's what you get. But she's knowledgeable at least. All right. Well, we'll try to sort that out.

Yeah, I'm cool. It doesn't matter. We've been going about an hour. You want to take a break? Okay. This bothered me and it probably shouldn't have, but I was at a Met game. I'm a Met fan, and I was watching... I'm at the game, it's not the point.

I'm at the game, and they sit me next to a guy, and he's eating an apple. First of all, does that not piss you off right there? Guy eating an apple at Chase Stadium. You shouldn't be allowed fruit in a ballpark, first of all. It's like beer, hot dogs, peanuts, and maybe the little ice cream in a helmet that's about it this guy's eating fruit you know and you know what the problem was he was eating it way too long he was like way too into it he's like flipping it over trying to find the good part oh look He's like flipping it over, trying to find the good part.

Oh, look, I got a little... I was like, dude, they're 39 cents a bag. Let it go. Grab another one. It's fruit, Frederick. Jeez. 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. Give me one of these. The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone. The Dumb Zone. That's from Jake had really cool voice. That was Jake?

Yeah. Well, one of them. One of them's a real voice guy. And then one of them was when I was sick. And I'm like, I want to take a crack at this. Nice. Yeah. You nailed it.

No puppet. And there it is. We've all drained our respective veins. We've changed a little bit. The beautiful Julie Dobbs is in our studio with us today. I am. So great to have you. Talented.

Smart. Respected within the community. Charitable. Julie Dobbs. Hard worker. Here with us today. But I within the community. Charitable. Julie Dobbs. Hard worker. Here with us today. But I know what old ladies really like. They just want you to compliment their looks.

Now you call me old? I'm just having fun. We're having fun here. This guy's in quicksand. You know I'm joking around. I do. Julie is the best. I was thinking you could say unemployed.

You got the mom game. Yeah, you got the mom game. Does that count? I had to check in in the best. I was thinking you could say unemployed. You got the mom game. Yeah, you got the mom game. Does that count? I had to check in in the building and it was like company. Yeah, no, you're totally- I wrote the mom game. You're totally employed if you just have a podcast. Okay, good.

We're all cool here. That's what we're trying to tell each other. We're all cool here. So moving forward today We It is the first of the month So Blake likes to You remember his bit? Blake's bit at the end of the month?

Oh yeah like month in review thing That's right We're going to do month in review thing tomorrow apparently Because of so much content But Blake wants to tease that To whet your appetite Yeah video man. I have one video from the month, and it's shocking to say the least.

We played it, I think, a week ago on April 23rd. And shocking development. I'll never view this celebrity the same ever again. And it's a sit-down interview with christy alley i get there and i got there my sister and i we were all sitting in this waiting room and we were sobbing and as i'm crying i said my sister's here and i wasn't looking at her but i said where were they going can you pause it and she said to a hell so the setup here is christyey's parents died in a car accident. Yeah.

And she's sitting down to explain what happened, how she got through it, whatever. And so apparently she found out some circumstances around their car accident. And she's explaining this on national news. All right, go ahead. And she said to a Halloween party. And I said, what were they dressed as? Why would you ask this? Why would you?

And she said, the odd couple. And I said, oh, I'm thinking, what odd couple? Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon? Well, what were their costumes exactly? She said, mom was a black girl and Dad was a Ku Klux Klan member. And we started laughing. And the whole family, I guess,

had heard this conversation and we all started laughing. And it was the greatest tribute that you could give my mother. Do you know? How? How? There's so much there could you share that i think i might keep that to myself yeah yeah yeah dad dad died and uh actually when the paramedics were trying to save him

uh they found a trunk full of dildos so mom mom's in blackface and he's wearing a Klan outfit. Yeah. Maybe that's why he wrecked. Yeah. Can't drive with that hood on. Yeah, it's tough. Yeah, so that's one of our- Tiny little eye holes.

Videos from the month of recapping April, which will happen tomorrow at ETX Brewing. Wow. And Tyler, I'm very excited about both that remote and tomorrow's MBR. Get some phone calls done on the way. We could. You got a lot of time for phone calls. They asked us why we want, why don't you guys drive together, Video Man and Blake? And I'm like, you know, obviously it would make sense environmentally and economically. And we live like really close now. It would be two seconds. I'd have to drive 15 minutes to your house. But the thing is, now it would be two seconds 15 minutes to your house but the thing is we will talk in the morning about the show but we're not like just shooting the shit for an hour and a half you know i don't

like doing that yeah you just want some quiet time well just with dan like i want us to you know what if i make him laugh that's a burned one that i had you know like i don't have many right and then you can tell me this the uh land lady story this morning right you have to wait but also phone calls yeah if you make them laugh in real life you think that's one less time you'll make them laugh when the cameras are rolling 100 there's only so many i don't think it's finite i don't think that's how it works by the way you said your uh land what's your landlady look like? You mentioned she's divorced. I've only seen her once and, you know...

Yeah, I mean... Okay. Yeah. Maybe I'll just... Okay. Hang out? Come by. Hey, what's up?

Is the internet on yet? Go on. Offer some help, yeah. Yeah. Take a look at this. What would I do? Okay, so that's tomorrow, the MBR. Worst handyman ever.

But I think we have some other stuff today that I don't have anything to do with, but I do. To explain, here's Jake, or Blake, or someone that's not me. or someone that's not me. So someone sent us this video clip, or it's 30 minutes, of a television show back in Dayton, Ohio that Dan appeared on. Now, what years were Dayton? 98, 99.

Okay. 98, maybe late 97. Like you had moved there from Cleveland or from Youngstown. Cleveland to Youngstown, Youngstown to Akron, or excuse me, Dayton to here. Right. Okay. So we're talking about 1998, 1999.

You were hosting your own show. Yes, on WHIO radio in Dayton. And as local TV stations will do, and I'm not exactly sure the circumstances around this particular television program. To me, it seems kind of cable access-y. It's absolutely what it is. Okay. They will have, you know, hey, somebody from the radio on. And in this case, the William

Pace show had the host of the Dan McDowell show on. I don't know if you want me to set this up at all. You can. I don't even know you want me to set this up at all. You can. I don't, I don't even know what you have. I just know you found that video or it got found.

Probably Jason from the internet. And if you want to know, uh, when I was looking for the link, because I didn't want to scroll through 50 tweets. If you YouTube your name, it's on, it's not on the first page. I don't think it's on the second page,

but three or four pages in it's there. On YouTube. Yeah. Somebody did that. So, William Pace, yeah, you know, like you'll do when you're a stoner dude and you're watching TV, you're just flipping through all the channels. The William Pace Show through the years

has been a beacon of light in the Midwest. It's all good. Okay, so this is the guy. Take a look at him. I'm very excited. He's a large... We'll get to him. Large, overweight black gentleman.

This show he had was insane. He would just sing gospel songs, but then he would have a local politician on to talk about, or just an author. But it was uh it was cable access yeah but he would come on and sing songs and he was not that great of a singer but he looks very flamboyant he looks gay i don't know if he is gay right but if you can look gay

then he does you know he talks he just has this inflection butlection, and he's just insane. It's so weird. Yeah. And I can't believe this guy exists, and he has a TV show. So we would book him on our radio show, like, hey, come in studio, and we'll message you. And he didn't get it, anything we were messing with him. And it was just like, we were amazed that this person exists in the world. So that's the setup.

We had had him on our show plenty, and he invited me on his TV show. And as an aside, RIP to cable access being a thing. Yeah, it was great. It was so, I mean, that's like how Alex Jones got started. Not to say that that's a great thing in the world,

but that sort of show would exist on television in Austin. And then on this show, I think you're going to have me and my cohort cohort big jim uh big jim was my co-host in youngstown or i brought him on he was an intern him and tommy lowe were our interns they were from like the school of broadcasting around cleveland and um tommy lowe was the blind. So we had carts back then, which means it's like an eight-track tape,

and that's probably a bad reference too, but it's just they were a physical thing that you would have a, you know, it would be like as big as a CD or something, and it would have a sound bite on. So in fact, I have a cart from way back then with this. And it says Y-Y-Y-Y-E-E-A-A-H-H-H. Yay. It's big yay. But you would have to put it in the hole, press a button, and it would play that. And then it would rewind, and then it would cue

up again. And so, wait, why am i starting to tell you about carts uh the blind guy the blind guy yeah so we would have the blind guy set us up with our sports cuts of the day in the morning but he would always mislabel everything and so he would like he had braille on him but he'd be like one is uh you Indians manager, Mike Hargrove, or two is going to be Michael Jordan or whatever. But they were always out of order because he was blind. Yeah. And then that was part of our, we thought it was comedy of the show. So we'd be like, oh, Mike Hargrove last night says it was a tough game.

Ah. Yeah, it would be Michael Jordan talking about just having passed Wilt on the all-time record. And I'm like, no, no, no. And then we'd yell at him and stuff, and Big Jim was his handler, kind of, his buddy. And so Big Jim, his claim to fame was he was once on Star Search. And he

wanted to be a comedian, but he didn't end up being that. And he was like 400 pounds. You'll definitely see. Four might be low. And he was like 400 pounds. You'll definitely see. He was incredibly big. Four might be low. But he was in Youngstown, and I got him brought up as the production coordinator in Dayton. So the open of the show, if you want, you can see this on YouTube at the Dumb Zones page.

But I think just hearing the audio and the production, I can't believe that this is not an SNL bit. This is the open to the William Pace show. The William Pace show through the years has been a beacon of light in the Midwest, taking you to such destinations as the Navy Pier, the Palmer Hilton Palace Hotel, the German Village,

the Showboat Majestic Theater, the Ohio Village, and the Krohn Conservatory. There's always something? Now is it the Botanic Garden? Everything is a one-second cut. Okay, yeah, look at it. Do the shuffle? What a group. Now, without further ado, we proudly present The William Pace Show on CATV,

coming to you from the heart of the Midwest. The William Pace Show. Asking the questions you want to ask. Now, what you're getting now is like a PowerPoint presentation where just pictures float across the screen. It's very Tim and Eric. Yeah, it's extremely Tim and Eric. There he is singing.

Yeah. See, this is current day William Pace because those old pictures, when I knew him, he had this big giant hairdo. I don't know how you would describe it. I guess you'll see it. I'm just staying in the course. Here we go. Apparently, I'm just staying in the course Is some sort of a tagline And I'll tell you this too

I'm very confused About this show because it's on YouTube As are dozens of other episodes And that presentation Or production right there The last part that looks like Tim and Eric PowerPoint That did not exist whenever he was doing this show

So someone is like Updating The graphics or something Tim and Eric PowerPoint, that did not exist whenever he was doing this show. So someone is like updating the graphics or something. Yeah, because now he's doing it online. Those aren't up there. Oh, okay. It's really weird. No, that stuff was available because it's pretty 80s, 90s, early computer. I don't know, man.

You think? You think they're currently updating? One of those pictures. I mean, the pictures are, 90s, early computer. I don't know, man. You think? You think they're currently updating? One of those pictures. I mean, the pictures are, yeah, they are updating it. Yeah, for now, I guess. Okay. So that was the open of the show I'm on? Yes.

And in fact, in the YouTube video, they play it four more times. You're about to be on that show? Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's what we're talking about. I know, I know. I'm comprehending this all. Oh, you're going to love it. It's going to be so amazing. This is why you're here today.

I can't wait. Just wait until the first frame. So we're going to open the show. We're going to open the show. And they don't really – they dive right into it. Okay, so we'll do a quick intro with Dan. And then apparently this is where Dan got the idea for Viewer Mail. William Pace does a letters segment,

and he's going to turn that over to the host of the dan mcdowell show on this very special occasion he's the voice you hear every day on the radio from 3 to 6 p.m on news talk 1290 whio radio and if you're listening carefully he looks like an atlantic character your voice singing you're making a first time call on the radio welcome welcome welcome to the dan mcdowell show please welcome my special guest dan mcdowell good to have you on the show tonight all right thanks very much william thanks and you're going to help me with some of my duties tonight i understand this is a first the first time you've ever had a guest read your letter segment yes and maybe this might become a regular thing on the show we'll see how well you

do oh really okay well yeah i love it our letter segment here we go okay this is uh of course william's favorite part of the show it is it is my favorite part everyone's just messing with things off this week's letter william comes from uh lavina wilson who writes dear bill getting a little familiar with you huh william looks at the camera with interest to your show it is informative and shows that you've put much time and thinking each show through making a viewer stay with you until the end this is the sort of thing blake would read good work bill and And continue to let us know what is going on in Dayton. Sincerely, Lavina Wilson. So are we going to be able to

send Lavina a box of Esther Price fine chocolates? You clearly watch the show, right? Light and dark chocolates. You know what Jimmy Walker said to that? He said, I guess that means white and black people can have this. And yes, that's what the William Pace Show is all about.

Yeah. Multicultural. Very much so. Very much so. Multicultural. He's got the box of chocolates right there on screen. So, yeah, I figured whenever I saw this that it's exactly as you described it. Like, you and your friends or you or whatever, you're just kind of baked late at night, early afternoon or whatever.

How does this exist? But then you learn the guy's bits so that when you go on, you're like, this is William's favorite part of the show. Does this mean we get to send the box of chocolates? And he loves it because he's like, man, this guy's a real... But yes, that's the kind of letters he would read. Oh my gosh.

Okay, so a big topic of the show that we build to will be weight loss. As William is a large man at this time. Apparently he used to be larger, used to be smaller, but he's just a big guy.

I'm in the 240 range. Yeah, I think he's outpacing you quite a bit. And just to set the visual here, without sounding like a complete bigot, William is a large black man with black white guy hair. Like, it looks like a wig or a hairpiece or something. You don't see a lot of black people with white guy black hair. It's weird.

Al Sharpton? Al Sharpton would be one. Feels like that hair. Yeah. So we're going to get into weight loss talk with this third one here. Now here's a shot of old Dan McDowell in his studio. Coming back from break.

Looks like he's got a full body Pepsi Pepsi there. My special guest is Dan McDowell from News Talk Club 90 of the Dan McDowell Show. How are you? I am fine, William. Good to have you here. I'm fine. Just trying to stay on my diet.

It's a challenge. I'm still at a plateau. Just out of nowhere, he dives right in. I know what you lose so many pounds, and then your body won't lose anymore. And so you have to do more. I'm at a gaining plateau right now. How many pounds have you gained? I think I've gained at least 15 or 20.

Well, not since Christmas, but like in the last year. So, in fact, later on in the show, I didn't want to get into it just yet But I wanted to talk about weight loss in my new program. Okay. Yeah, I'm interested in getting some tips and suggestions You know, I've sort of been well almost every size there is to be you look great though You look better than you did last time. You know, thank you. Thank you It's becoming noticeable in my face and I still have the situation with the stomach and so I've oh my god I got a double-breasted. You lost a little hair, too. Maybe a pound or two off the...

Well, this hairstylist of mine, she got carried away, and I went in there, and she went clip, clip, clip, clip. And next thing you know, I was bald-headed almost. Oh, my. But I guess this is a little bit better. It's grown out some a little bit. I'm getting used to it. I take it that you like this as a better look. That's short hair for him? Well, losing a few pounds doesn't hurt anybody. Kind of, so I don't know. I'm getting used to it. I take it that you like this is a better look for me. That's short hair for him?

Well, losing a few pounds never hurts anybody. Except for Ally McBeal. Damn it, I talked over the joke. Okay. I'm getting used to it. I take it that you like this is a better look for me. Well, losing a few pounds never hurts anybody, you know, except for Ally McBeal.

Okay. Well, I want to. Okay. We're all familiar with Ally McBeal. Okay. Well, I want to. Okay. We're all familiar with Allie McBeal. Yeah. She was, like, so skinny. Yeah. And very topical at the time.

It was the hot show, I'm sure. Probably, yeah. Yeah. So you guys move off of weight loss talk for a minute. You know what? Let's play this one, the one I said stop at 32, because it's an interesting look into Dan's future. Cut four, and we'll stop it at 32 seconds.

Take this golden opportunity to thank you for your support. You know, folks, it's rare that you find one on-air personality willing to promote another on-air personality. There's Dan. From the bottom of my heart. Oh, sure. I really appreciate that. I try to pattern my show

on the radio. It's kind of a radio version of the William Pace show on TV. I didn't even know that before we met. We break the rules. The William Pace show, throw the rules out the window. You know what I mean? Have the guests read the letters.

You get crazy. You get crazy you get crazy he just has no he has no clue what is happening no rolls out the window well you know what i mean have the guests read the letters you get crazy Oh my gosh. You haven't changed a bit. This has always been you. Oh my gosh. It's amazing. Yeah, but like William noticed it.

He was an asshole 20 years ago. No, no. Just the fact that William's like, hey, it's cool that you would go on another, you know, a lot of people are too much ego. And we've talked about that forever, whether it's NBC and CBS, whether it's like, oh, I'm not allowed to tweet somebody who works at The Freak. That part is 100% Dan. Yes.

And it's also 100% Dan that he's just doing his own bits. Like this guy has no idea and he knows it's funny to himself and he doesn't care who else thinks it's funny. Just wait. He's just going to go for it. All right, let's go to cut uh five then this is a very strange he's he's trying to promote uh like a charity bit he's gonna be involved in and it's a bit convoluted uh cut five you know a couple of weeks ago i got a

call from muscular dyspnea and uh wait what inviting me are you okay oh you don't have no no no no not me not me no no i'm blessed i'm i'm fine i'm okay uh but they want me to go to jail what to help raise money for muscular dystrophy and i said yes if i could do a show uh so we're going to tape a show there with me in jail and so i've got nice at the marriott Hotel. And I thought maybe I could call you up on the line. Maybe come on. I think I'm supposed to be there at three or something like that, three to four.

Sure. On the radio? Oh, yeah. I can say, help, help. I need some money. So what's the thing? They take you off to jail and you need to get people to call in donations? I have to call people up on the phone lines and raise a certain amount of, they call it bond money or bail money or something like that, to bail me out of jail.

Okay. So you'd bail me out of jail. Well, we can try and get some of our listeners. As you know, I'm pretty strapped this month. It's after Christmas and everything. But you would give me a few dollars. I'd love to put the word out and have some listeners call in. That'd be great.

Help get William out of jail. What day is that going to be for the viewers? I believe it's... If they wanted to maybe tune into my show and help you out. Okay, yeah. So, at first I thought that's kind of a cool bit. Like, they're going to take him to a jail. He's like, I'll be at the Marriott Hotel.

A fake jail, yeah. I'll be in a suite. Yeah. You called to get me out of jail. It's not jail. All right, so we have two pretty long clips. Oh, my gosh. Are you okay?

Yeah. You okay? Well, he said it really weird. I got a call from muscular cancer. Yeah, like the disease just called him out. Hey, William, I'm coming. You interested? You're in trouble.

I need a body. so this next one um it's uh you can kind of see where you get the classic dan rant this is uh whether it's forget the rice whether it's uh you know he it apparently they just had a large snow storm in dayton um and this got Dan all fired up. Well, you know, when you had all this ice, I guess you're not used to this ice and snow. I heard you talking a lot about that. Oh, well, here's the thing. Yeah, we shut down Dayton for two weeks, right,

with all this snow this winter. It didn't shut me down. I kept going. Oh, yeah, I was watching the William Pace show every night. Didn't shut down my show either. So I'm from Cleveland originally. So I'm used to having snow and ice, but I'm used to having a city that will respond to the fact that nature will snow once in a while. And I live in downtown Dayton.

I'm always supportive of my town and very proud of the fact that I live in downtown Dayton. I'm always supportive of my town and very proud of the fact that I live in downtown Dayton. But apparently downtown Dayton has a guy named Jeb and his plow that will clean up the streets downtown. Because they did not plow my street. The whole two weeks, they did not plow my street. And I don't think they know what salt is i mean we live in ohio correct uh-huh so you i mean you know that dayton doesn't get tons of snow and there wasn't a big snow like this for a few years right right we haven't had this kind of snow in a few years but you would think i mean at the william pay show if something goes wrong if you have a

guest scheduled and the guest doesn't show up, you have a backup plan. You have a plan that you will do something. The show must go on. Absolutely. At our radio station, we have a plan that if it snows, we have people that will come in at night and we'll get the school closings on for you. You know what I mean? They do it at Channel 7 TV, too. They'll get the school closings. We'll get that out. We have a plan if it snows. Now, the city of Dayton, I'm thinking,

should come up with some kind of a plan because it snows once in a while. And they should say, when it does snow, let's call the plows. Maybe that same day. Because no plows are out on the streets until a day after the snow. By then, as you know, it was like zero degrees out. So all the snow that had fallen was now this frozen brick of ice. And when they did try and salt and shovel it, you can't shovel it off. So it just snowed everybody in for two weeks. So I didn't think the city of Dayton had a plan until the two-week period lapsed. And I realized that their master plan was to allow the sun to melt the snow

and it really did work because we had two days in a row where it was like 50 degree weather and it melted all the snow and it rained so I guess the city of Dayton saved money and I have egg on my face for bashing them and and in fairness to uh one of my earlier guests this week was uh commissioner Dean Lovelace, and I asked him about that, and he said he thought that they did an outstanding job. Really? So maybe I need to have you, Commissioner Dean Lovelace,

and you come on the show together. Okay. Would you come on the show? Yeah, I'd love that. Okay, that'll be a show, a feature show for us. Jeez. Well, with all respect to my guest, man in control of

city maintenance. Oh my God. This has existed this whole time? I know. It's amazing. I can't believe it. Would you like to book him on this sometime? Oh my God. Because I can do it. Absolutely. Yes absolutely yes please so we'll skip over my next

couple cuts one of them it's really weird he starts talking about rosanne and saying that you would host a great show with rosanne and you're like i guess i don't know he put you in that box uh the next one after that which we can skip because we have a really long one coming up that we're going to have to stop and start, is you detailing Mighty Joe. Joe, yeah, who works for the staff now. But at this point, you're – What was I talking about? You want to play? He did the gallon challenge.

Yeah, we could play it. I don't remember. We'll do eight. Hi, we're back with Dan McDowell and his producer, Jim. We were talking about Joe, Joe drinking a gallon of milk. Yeah, Joe, my on-air partner, just started to tell you before the break, by the way, you got a lot of new advertisers. We should give a little hand to the new advertisers that we saw.

Very nice, very nice. But I was telling you before the break, Joe did a scientific experiment for the city of Dayton that he wanted to see, can you drink a gallon of milk in one hour and he made it almost to the whole gallon this is our radio he deposited this is what we would do the garbage can look dude really yeah he never made it through oh he didn't don't try i got a tattoo on the air throw it up did he well he I didn't want to say that. Yes, he did. Oh, my goodness.

Okay. William, well, you had to ask that. Right. I thought this was a family show, William. It is. A lot of families up at midnight watching the show together. Oh, it's a midnight show. He made it three quarters of the way.

Yeah, he made it almost through the whole thing, but don't try. Let me just say, don't. Well, if you want to try it here on the William Pace Show, think it'd be great we are not advocating for anyone no no oh you make him so nervous yeah he wants to make sure nobody out there is getting any crazy ideas and then the william face show gets sued the show host up here okay so this next one's going to take us some time. We will stop and start it, but this is the meat of it because Dan came with a bit. Of course, right? You know, it's not, this is far above our bit of like coming to Fox 4 with you dressed in a headdress and me dressed as a gay biker from the village people.

This is better than that, but it's always been in us, always been in you. So you're going to see a large man on camera. That's the guy you were talking about earlier, right? Big Jim. Big Jim. So this is where you guys get into the bit. We're going to go back to weight loss talk with Nine. William, I wanted to talk a little little weight loss i mentioned that at the

beginning of the show and i'd like to introduce you know joe is my partner on the air but one of the big guys i'm saying not 400 dan you're saying over yeah dude he's like six three is he not he's pretty big yeah so yeah he's probably 500 pounds he's a huge man very very very because he's yeah super tall too but, he's sitting next to Dan. William's confused already. Instrumental to our show off the air is Big Jim Wilson. He's our production guy. He's wearing Zubas.

Very strange. I was talking weight loss. As you can see, it's January. It's post-Christmas. Very strange. I was talking weight loss. As you can see, it's January. It's post-Christmas. I'm wearing my big clothes. These are my big pants. This is my big fat shirt.

You know, it hangs over so you don't have to see the gut hanging out and everything. We have to camouflage things. Every year, every January, I'm trying a different weight loss thing. I'm going through eating two ounces of chicken and I'm trying. Do you really have to watch your weight? Oh, yeah, for sure, baby. Yeah. Do you have to watch? I mean, like.

Baby. Oh, baby. This is the baby era. Dude, you have no idea. I was like passively listening. Like, okay, this is going to be like, because I knew the whole bit. And I'm like, a baby. Oh, yeah.

This might have been the era of swingers and yes. It's okay. I might have incorporated baby in my language a little often. It's okay. Don't get mad at us about it for playing the baby guy. You might say, oh, this is the same guy. Yeah.

But there's subtle differences. Yeah, about 45 pounds and no baby. I've shed the baby. There's nothing wrong. Yeah, about 45 pounds and no baby. I've shed the baby. There's nothing wrong with that, baby. That's right, baby. Don't worry about it. Oh, yeah, baby.

You're a beautiful baby. Two ounces of chicken, and I'm trying to- Do you really have to watch your weight? Oh, yeah, for sure, baby. I mean, you could probably eat a pizza and- God, I suck. I'm the worst. Yeah, yeah. I mean, like, a pizza and... God, I suck. I'm the worst. Yeah, yeah.

I mean, I'm a loser. I've always thought that if I ever had an eating disorder, I could be a bulimic, but I could never be anorexic because I have to eat. You know what I mean? Uh-huh. Have you analyzed why you eat so much? I've analyzed why I eat so much.

Really? What's the driving force of you eating so much i think because my parents were divorced when i was like eight years old and i just started eating eating and uh so that was a hard time for you yeah it was a psychological because i believe that weight loss has something to do with the psychological oh for sure you're eating for to to fill yourself for other things that are not in your life. Here's the thing, though. I have employed Big Jim here. He's my

spiritual advisor and personal trainer, pretty much. Weight loss consultant. He's pointing at a 500-pound man in sweatpants. You don't see a guy that looks like Big Jim to be a weight loss consultant. Are you a weight loss consultant? I am, William. I've developed a two-phase plan

to help Dan, and I believe help others. Phase one of the plan, of course, is just hanging out with me. As Dan sits here now, it's a visual, yeah. He appears thinner than he would if I weren't here. Think about it. When you first were watching the show, you thought I was a little chunky, didn't you? But now what do I look like? Yeah, I'm a world-class athlete. So that's the first part of the plan.

You must seek and find someone larger than you. Jim, so he hangs with me all the time, which is a little weird during showers and when my girlfriend comes over, but I don't mind. Showers? Now, the second phase of the plan, William. And now William is nodding.

That would be weird. Dan eats at certain times. In fact, it's worth it. Is it time to eat now? Is it midnight? Yes. Now Dan will pull a briefcase out from underneath his chair. Here's the plan.

Here's how Dan stays thin by standing next to me. This, by the way, is this briefcase from Pulp Fiction. Before you open this up, is this food here? What is it? Oh, he's nervous. It is Dan's regimented meals. Yeah, I have a little something. I have my lunch. I brought my lunch with me.

I brought a sandwich. Can you hold that for a second? What kind of sandwich is this? That's a turkey. Really, though, here's the thing about my new diet. Does it have mustard on it? How do you like that thing? Oh, this is more like for my diet. Questionable.

Yeah, here's the deal with my new diet, William. Dan just handed William a banana, so you'll love that. I can eat anything. Oh, a Bud Light. Dan has pulled out a Bud Light. A lot of diets you've got to eat like an ounce of chicken, or you've got to eat this much rice. This diet, i eat anything pizza hamburgers whatever and are you gonna pop the lid on the butt light see what happens is william well what's the rule what's the rule on the beer the rule is you start the

beer i finish the beer well only light beer only light beer right exactly any food dan wants to ingest i hope to be most of it first and then i give it now this we have we have we have families watching the show so i don't know if oh no we're not going to drink this beer on the air right that's just a prop that's for you after the show so jim is just going to town on the food that he has yeah he took the box of uh pretzels and yeah box of pretzels stop eating i'm talking with pretzels. And won't stop eating them. Talking with pretzel mouth. As Dan is now back to the sandwich, I believe, as we're getting into explaining phase two of the weight loss plan in full here.

So, yeah, phase one, just hang out with me. The thing kind of is that Jim just hangs. Hand me that box. I want to see the nutrition. See, the thing is I can eat anything I want. What are you folks doing? But Jim hangs out with me all day, so I order a pizza, and I want to eat this pizza. And before I can even eat two pieces, he's finished the rest of it. You know what I'm saying?

I mean, look. He's taking a sandwich out of Dan's hand. It kind of makes me mad, but I'm losing weight like a maniac. I mean, every meal that I eat, he eats like three-fourths of the meal. I never can get through it. Now, the calories here, what is it? William, now, checking the nutrition facts on the pretzels. This is not listening at all.

Or watching Jim is just ripping food out of the pretzels. And you know he's supposed to have one. I have 34, Dan eats six. The thing is, he never orders anything. That's the problem. I mean, I go out to eat, and I order a meal. He just sits there. He doesn't orders anything. That's the problem. Well, tell me, Jim. I go out to eat and I order a meal. He just sits there and doesn't order anything. Let me do some analyzing here.

Now, why is it that you have to eat so much? Did you have an unhappy childhood? No, no. I've analyzed it as you and Dan have And it comes right down to hunger for me I'm just usually hungry Hungry? And do you have any way to curb that appetite?

I just keep the thought in my mind That eventually I will get taller You've got to find somebody that's bigger than you Right I've got a couple of six-inch cutters You've got to find somebody that's bigger than you. That's funny. You know what I mean? I got a couple of six-inch cutters. You got to find somebody bigger than you. Yeah, this is turkey, baby. This is really good.

This is turkey, baby. This is really good. Can you cook? A lot of gold right there. Dan just thought of the idea. You should find somebody bigger than you. Andre the Giant. Now how many press...

Oh my God. Oh my gosh. I can't handle it. Is that the end of that one? Okay, good. We got a little bit of time, so let's play the last two. This next one is how we get into the exercise phase. There's no banana one?

What? Oh, I thought we were eating the banana, too. It might have gotten cut off. Okay. That went on for like seven and a half minutes. Is there? Okay. Oh, you didn't cut that part?

Okay. I guess not. Eating a banana centrally in front of William Pace is... That obviously stuck with you after all this time. No, I'm just saying, I remember my wife, who was my girlfriend at the time, was like, that was mean. The whole thing is mean. Oh, well, she thought the banana part was mean. This is the exercise portion of it this is

number 10 i got uh something else too we've been doing the gym has uh made me still both this year for the first time ever i've joined a bowling league that yeah anything and there's a little exercise yeah anyway right because wait will you pause it I hadn't even noticed until now. Do you like the... This is my sideburns era. Yeah, it's a little bit grainy on the video, but yeah. Once you get up close, you can see. You definitely do have sideburns. I would grow them pretty big.

Yeah. You're a whole vibe. Oh, I forgot to tell you, though, that I don't want this to be weird, but when I first started going through this a couple mornings ago, my wife was like, what is that? And she looked and she was like, Dan used to be kind of cute. Oh, no. I don't know how you want to take that. Yeah.

I mean, she doesn't think I am anymore, so, you know. That's just wives. Because you were like, this is like late 20s mid-20s probably uh late 20s yeah so uh yeah back to the the strenuous exercise portion and the funniest thing is you're clearly joking and then william's like yes anything you can do to get active yeah because that's what you think when you walk into a bowling alley and see all the regulars like these guys are very active like they're they're really getting their heart rate up william wants to commend you because he's a sweetheart of a guy he is because it is you know i think i'm sure i think it has to do with caloric intake

big jim rubbing dan's arms how many fat grams you're consuming and i think it has to do with cardiovascular i think you know do you do the treadmill? No, I've just been bowling. It's been so cold that it's hard for me to get outside and work out. You must understand that. I do understand that. Anything under 60, 65 degrees, I just can't make it out to work. I do understand that because there are days I start to moan

when I get up at 6 o'clock to get out to hit the gym at valets. Full mouth of food. Can't hide your smile either. I have to keep working on trying to perfect this body. Well, here's the thing. I can't believe we've made it this far. I showed you a picture of the way I used to look. Remember that?

Oh, yeah. You had to have like two pictures to fit you in. No. Oh, no, the skinny one. Yeah, yeah. You had to have half a picture. That's what I'm trying to get. I don't know if it's possible, but I'm going to.

See, you look fine now. I think everybody's predisposed to be in a certain body type. Well, I think there's some truth to that. You might be able to lose like five, but you're looking good. What do you think as a trainer? Maybe like a 30 to 50 pounds. Oh, wow, man. You'll be wasted away.

Yeah, you'll look like Callista Blockhart. Extra skin. Right back to it. You like that one? Find somebody bigger. I think the key is, though, and I'm no personal trainer like Jim, but I think the key is that everybody has to have their own. Treadmill might work for you.

I think a lot of it has to do with. Hanging out with a real fat guy might work for me. I think a lot of it has to do with what stock you come from. You know, when you look at my father, he's a bit of six feet and he's about 240, 250. My mother was about, I don't know, 5'9", but she was a big, heavyset woman. So for me to think that I'm going to be a little thin person. How is he still acting like this is all normal? Like trying to carry on a normal weight loss conversation.

Right, right. But, you know, you just have to, I think a lot of it has to do with what you come from. And then I think you have to really, you know, constantly, you know, watch your weight. I really do. We'll be back in a moment with more conversation with Dan. I'll tell you what. The whole time he's issuing that last part in the wide shot, it's just Dan and Jim eating. Just the whole time.

So great. And now we'll go to the ender. The show's pretty much over. We'll back sell the charity bit. It's the William Pace Show with Dan McDowell and Big Jim, cut 11. Well, tell me, we were almost out of time. Now he's eating the banana. Coming up on the Dan McDowell Show. coming up on the Dan McDowell Show.

I'm coming up on the Dan McDowell Show. Don't forget to tune in February 24th. That's a Wednesday. William Pace will need your support for muscular dystrophy. Because they're going to put me in jail over at the Marriott Hotel. I've got to raise money. I've got to raise a lot of money for muscular dystrophy. And Dan's going to come and help bail me out.

You're going to give me what? How much money are you going to give me? Oh my gosh, too much to mention now, William. That's for sure. And I'm going to call you on the radio. Call on the radio, so you watching out there, make sure you call into our show that day. It's WHIO Radio, of course.

And William Pace will need your help. Okay. Well, that's it for us today. We've got to go before this becomes a zoo. I'll see you next time. Thank you. Bye-bye. Oh, my God. We got to go before this becomes a zoo.

I'll see you next time. Thank you. Bye-bye. Can you cut that off and put it at the end of your outro every day? We got to go before this becomes a zoo. Yes. It's a great idea. I fell out when I saw the end of this thing.

I'm like, it can't get better before this becomes a zoo. Well, that's it for us today. We gotta go before this becomes a zoo. The little laugh after the laugh. Oh my God, he's so awkward. Oh, my God. He's so awkward. He's cute, but he's so awkward. He's the sweetest guy. I can tell.

He's sweet. Yeah. And way over his head. No. That's sweet. And, Dan, you're just, like, just so freaking funny, even way back then. And the funniest part to me is, like, I was this like there will be some corporate there's probably some corporate exec that like would watch that and be like that william pace has really got something yeah i don't know about that dan guy whereas dan's the obvious one

that's like so talented in that whole thing oh my gosh i wasn't prepared for you know it's kind of like whatever it's kind of like, you ever heard somebody say this about like The Wire or The Sopranos? When they tell you they haven't seen it and you're like, damn, I wish I could go back to that. You're going to use that on this? Yeah. I've watched it like four times now to cut.

Like the William Pace show in general? Yeah, in general. Like you wish you lived with me i watched in 1999 watching oh my gosh yeah at midnight yes and even watching now like you guys seeing it for the first time yeah and i'm like oh now i'm on like time four or five i watched his interview with bb king oh really yeah he's got a he's got a bunch of them up there y'all could break down his show, probably have a little segment once a week in your show. Now here's William Pace with Kirstie Alley or whatever it is. Ooh. Oh.

Ah. Maybe they wouldn't be a good fit. All right, should we do the news? Sure. We do the news, Julie. With the Dumb Zone News We do the news, Julie. Have you been a guest on our show? I don't think so.

Have we had you on the phone or anything? I know we had you at a... Yeah, I did something with y'all. A stream, a live stream. Yeah. Cowboy game. Yeah. Well, it's been just a pleasure so far, Julie. It's been fun.

I needed... But we gotta go before this becomes a deal. So Blake probably not going to be interested in this story at all because the last time I tried to tell him how interesting it was, he completely checked out because it was a day that you weren't there. So why would I have needed him to support me in the story I was doing? Tension. The Boeing whistleblowers.

Yeah. Do you know about this, Dan? Have you heard about this, Kev? Tell me. So Boeing has had some serious problems with their planes. And there was about to be... There were some people, whistleblowers, who were talking to the government,

talking to regulatory agencies about things they had seen um like in the places where they make the planes like they worked on overseeing the construction of the plane i think i saw something about this on john oliver yeah yeah yeah so they're all falling apart people are dying and whatnot yeah it has been it's been a very rough time for they bought their ticket. Yeah, that is true. So a door hatch flew off a Boeing 737 during an Alaskan Airlines flight that was in January. There's been a handful of other incidents. And these people had filed a complaint with the FAA and said that they were scapegoated by the company trying to keep the production issues

you know secret because these people had been fired well one of them uh about a month ago unalived himself the one of the people that got fired yeah and was talking to the government and he had uh he was actually in town i think it was in charleston um to meet with them that day like to meet with the faa oh wow yeah and he killed himself yes hmm well come on yeah oh that's what we're saying well so at the time i was like at the time I was thinking possibly the fact that you're like about to have to testify against a massive, massive, massive company. One of the, I would imagine biggest in the world. Maybe just that pressure and people making threats, veiled threats of like, hey, I don't know if I'd go through with this. You know, you love your family and everything.

Maybe that is enough stress to just think I'm out. Do you think it's stress and pressure to have to testify against a company that you once worked for? Is that possible? It is possible. I can't speak to it. Okay. But if so, then I think that guy's a huge

pussy because we went through it. Yeah, man. You just vomit a couple times and get over it. Got it done. He's dead. It's the inverse of saying nice things about somebody. It's not like they can do anything about it. That guy, like I said, a month and a half ago, he died by suicide.

I believe he was found in a car. Well, now, a former quality auditor at something called Spirit Aero Systems, which had done some work with Boeing, 45 year old Joshua Dean died Tuesday morning from a fast-growing infection.

He had reportedly been in good health until about two weeks ago when he was admitted to the hospital. And he had, like, a bunch of, he had... What's the allegation here? What are we two weeks ago when he was admitted to the hospital. And he had like a bunch of... What's the allegation here? What are we saying? Well, he was also a whistleblower. So kind of something

a little chemical warfare? I mean, you know, people in Russia, they don't all fall out of buildings and windows. Yeah, didn't they? It's like poison. Yeah. Somebody will just give you a pinprick or something walking through the airport or something like that. Didn't that happen to like Putin's whatever brother, uncle,

something like that. I think you're right. And I think also they might have tried that with one of Kim Jong-un. Maybe that's who I'm thinking. Relatives. But it does happen in those type of places. Yeah. You could even just be regular antique poisoned

where someone puts something in your drink. So the thought is that possibly even big business is doing that here. Big boing. Big boing. Big boing. Big boing. Yeah. They're killing people. They did a deal with Spirit Airlines. Allegedly. Allegedly.

We don't want to get ourselves in these sort of... I don't want to go to court that sounds like it would suck yeah too soon? no I just had a flashback so earlier this year there was the guy who's now

dead from poison or not talked to the Wall Street Journal and said, it is known at Spirit that if you make too much noise and cause too much trouble, you will be moved.

And Delta and Spirit, I suppose, had this joint agreement to deliver a certain number of aircraft by a certain time, so they were cutting corners. And that's why, and this guy,

who was technically a Spirit employee, also went to the FAA. And now he's... He gone. He dead. So those airlines were trying to move the aircrafts quickly. Like, they were being made quickly by Boeing,

and that's why shit was falling apart? That's what people are saying. Okay, and then... And there was also some story about, like, there was, I don't know if it was anonymous or or on the record but a bunch of people who worked for boeing were asked would you get on one of these planes and it was like seven out of ten said no right did this all happen is it because um like did they go public like, why would they have to be moving planes quickly? I mean, it's all about money, right, I guess?

Like, at some point, I can't remember. Like I said, I saw a story on this on This Week Tonight or whatever that's called, that Boeing used to be, like, the top dog, you know, and those were the, you know, best safety, all that kind of stuff. But then, again, I can't remember. Is it that they went public and now they're beholden to the stock price more than just quality and just making money is not good enough.

You need to make the absolute most money. Yeah, I don't know when they went public. I believe they've been public for quite some time, but there's a Time magazine article from late last year that said that a shareholder group in Boeing had filed a lawsuit accusing the manufacturer of covering up production flaws. So, you know, if you own a part of the company

and you're like, you guys are making really bad planes, this could really, because every time one of these stories comes out, their stock price tanks. Whether it's a door flying off or whatever the case is, you look at the market the next day and it tanks. I guess it comes

back, but... I look at a door falling off as a buying opportunity, Blake. You too. You too, financial wizard. Up 9% today. I don't know why. Boeing? Yeah. Really? After the news of the whistleblower? That's weird.

Seems fishy. Well, they got rid of him. I guess that's true. So, I was unaware of this, despite the fact that this story emanates from my hometown, North Richland Hills. There is an 80,000 square foot recording and rehearsal facility in North Richland Hills.

About 150 bands practice there. The largest recording studio in the United States by square footage. And it is where the jail used to be. Hmm. It's part of a larger complex called Platinum Music Complex which basically took over a handful

of years ago. I don't remember. Maybe five to seven years ago. Northridge and Hills moved all of their stuff to a better location. So they moved City Hall. They moved where you go get your everything. Administration stuff. the police station, and the jail were all in this one big sprawling complex. So they moved the whole thing to a newer place.

And now they have this, a company called Platinum Music bought it. And they kept intact some of the jail parts. and they kept intact some of the jail parts. So you can go shoot TV spots or movies or lawyer commercials or whatever there. Maybe have William Pace there to raise money for muscular. Y'all could do a show there. Honestly, it's the first thing I thought about whenever I saw this story. I mean, I've been there.

You've been to that jail? Overnight. Before it was remodeled? No, actually, I haven't been to that jail? Overnight Before it was remodeled No actually I haven't been to that one Oh Yeah look at that It's on the You got it on YouTube now But it looks pretty badass

Oh wow Is this where the future janitors of America played? No we played at the rec center The old rec center Is 80,000 square feet too big for us video man? We're looking We'll scale oh yeah stop saying we'll scale it was business wednesday yesterday and i got all this business stuff in my head yeah we're gonna scale up yeah however the one story i do have that ties into this is uh when i was in a band this this is probably more like first year of college, maybe senior year of high school.

There are like five people listening who will remember this. There was a place in Arlington over by Baby Dolls. So not exactly like the nicest part of town. It was called Dreamland. And it sounded, it was basically like an old, I don't even know what it was. It was like a massive warehouse that they had constructed little recording booths in. And you could rent to have time to practice there or to record there. And it was so beaten down and so run down.

And then like half of the warehouse was an actual concert, like venue. And they would have, uh, they had a stage and then they had the floor on that half dirt. Literal dirt. Yeah. They,

I mean, they would break it, but it was not, it was not paved. And, uh, so you would have to, and everybody who worked there was shady and high and drunk and

you're like i'm 17 and this is really weird and uh i saw a guy kill a snake in a recording studio there one time like a big snake yikes it was so they would never pay you you know ever this is a really weird vibe because we were kind of like pop punkish we weren't like death metal or anything but as you can imagine it being arlington that's the type of people it attracted i remember the first time we ever went to play there we had a show there the people who were playing before us they all all had suits on, white, like, reservoir dog style suits. They were covered in blood. And they had hung stuffed animals up to the lights all across the front of the stage, covered them in blood, and put, like, knives to them.

Yikes. Hmm. And my parents did come to that show. Did they like it? I think they were just happy at that it was like my big gym they're like my son's in a band this is terrible and they saw that and they were like that's not so bad yeah yeah this song's about next to that your girlfriend broke up with you yeah and then our final story do you have any of that music gym i get it now don't you think we need to evaluate that i promise you that you that my parents have at least one.

Because we might have, you know. Like, are you singing on it? No. That's why you don't want it. I would sing backup at shows. But whenever we actually did the tracking of the record, I guess you would say, we would just have our singer track his own harmonies. So it's like, why get a shitty singer on here if we could just have the good guy sing

all three of them? And he was awesome. You know him. It was Brevig. Oh, nice. He's a good singer, huh? Dude. Voice of a generation. Like Jim Neighbors? Like Gomer Pyle? Yeah. He was great. Any video? There certainly has to be video from the guy who's

There was some video in the Jackass video we did that we showed before Jackass 4 or whatever. I just need a touche for today. I need to come back for something next week. Now it's your turn. I knew that's what you were working on. I'm just like, boy, this guy's interested in my life. He's a true friend.

He's digging deep. We're really connecting here. Dan just wants something to throw back. And our final story. Dave and Busters is in the news. As they will now be offering a new level of gaming. As you can make $5 wagers on Hotshot Basketball, a bet on skee-ball competition, or another arcade game.

So they will, through their app... So I could bet on watching you play Papa Shot or whatever? Yeah, I would be like minus 200. Take the under. Okay. You're bad at Papa Shot? Nobody's really good at it, except... I've seen people who are good at basketball. Except Kenny Lofton.

It's not basketball. Yeah. No, it's not basketball. I once saw Kenny Lofton. You did? He would, number one, he was a college basketball player. I heard about that. Does he hoop at all?

But he would throw it like 100 miles an hour with a little spin on it right at the bottom, and it would just drop right in. And he would just pick them up and just do that over and over. I mean, he would beat your best scorer by like 50 or 100. Yeah, because he's also getting more volume by playing that fast. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, it was incredible. Yeah.

You've got to figure it out. You can't just try to play regular basketball. You know. The greatest pop-a-shot player I've ever seen in my life. Yeah. It was a pleasure to be in the building when he was doing it. Huge crowd. He was in Cleveland, and he was a big deal.

Yeah, so I guess he would be minus 200. I would be plus 200, right? If you were playing against? No, I'm saying. Just whatever. Yeah. Yes, yeah. Plus is bad, right? If you were playing against? No, I'm saying. Just whatever. Yeah. Yes, yeah. Plus is your bet, right?

Yeah, yeah. Put that backwards. So anyways, now when you're at Dave & Buster's, you can download the Dave & Buster's app and you can make bets. Is this a good idea, do you think? Well, I don't know that any of it is a great idea. Like being able to gamble on all this stuff. So you're using the app and then that app pays you out or whatever? it. It's a great idea. You can gamble on all this stuff. So

you're using the app and then that app pays you out or whatever? Yeah. Okay. I mean you can do that with your friends. How much extra money on Dave and Buster cards do you have? Like have you wasted over there? Is that an always sunny bit?

Is it? I think. Because you go home and you still have two bucks on it, right? Yeah. And you got a bunch of those. And you're like, don't forget, don't forget, don't forget. Next time I go to Dave and Buster's, bring your card. You know, I never really spent a ton of time there. I didn't either.

They were not, I mean, at least in Tarrant County, that was not, we had other places like that. Yeah. Gaddytown? What's it called? Gaddytown? Did you ever hit up Gaddytown? It was like Mr. Gaddy's? Oh, like on 183?

I don't know. They were all over back in the day. I definitely spent a lot of time at Mr. Gaddy's, but I never went to Gaddytown. They had games? Yeah, it was awesome. Yeah. Boy, in Garland, we had Nickelrama. We had Nickelmania.

Nickelrama or Mania. One of them's still there. Yes. It was very fun. Yeah. Yeah. Kidzania? See, Dan, you would pay a nickel. Kidzania's fun. Right? is still there. It's very fun. Yeah. Yeah. Kidzania. See, Dan, you would pay a nickel.

Kidzania is fun. Right? Uh-huh. And you would play a game. It was kind of like Mania. It was so fun. We had that and we had one. These are just simple arcades, though.

Dave and Buster's has a lot more stuff to work with. We had one called Tornado Terry's. And it's funny that we bring that up today because the owner of tornado terry's the first thing i saw when i saw big jim was that's tornado terry oh that's what he looks like huge huge and just lording over the the arcade and he created an arcade and named it after himself. You know what? I might try to see if I can work in a little Chuck E. Cheese this weekend. It's fun. I'm having my daughter's birthday party there.

Nice. In June. And I feel like I might be. Would you invite Jake? Yeah, you want to come? I'd love to. Not his kid. Or no, it's May.

I was thinking of the wrong kid. It's May 25th. What a terrible parent. Yeah. I feel like it's vintage, and the other moms are laughing at me because everyone else pays a million dollars to have very fancy parties these days. Bounce house. And I was like, let's go Chuck E. Cheese.

It's awesome. It's so awesome. And you can buy beer there now? Yeah. And wine. You definitely used to be able to buy beer there. You can buy wine and beer. She knows.

Don't worry. I remember there was a night where a buddy of mine and each of our- They also have gluten-free pizza. Oh, I forgot you have to eat that. I've tried it a couple times recently. All their pizzas taste like it's gluten-free. No, their pizza- Like a piece of cardboard.

Their pizza's great. Yeah, they've upgraded, Dan. Really? Yeah. It's always been great, so if they upgrade it now, it's Michelin. It was always like that. Jake would go there by himself with no kid. I have done that.

Yeah. If you can. Just to go in the ball pit. All right, there's your news. I was just checking my odds. Dave and Buster's? No. Mavs.

I couldn't remember if I did. The Dome Zone presents Today in History. Because I think you got in on the Mavs, right? Yeah. I am not. I'm just still on Luka. I have to pull mine up. The Mavs are plus 1,200 right now.

Mine might have been 2,000. One, two, three, four. They're the fifth best odds to win it all. Wow. All right. Does Dan have a problem? I just like looking at it and looking for value. It's not like I'm betting every day.

And then you just like, oh, odds. What are my odds? If he wins, though, think how much you guys could scale. Oh, my gosh. I love scale talk. Right? So today is, oh, you know what I never did? Maybe put this in the show notes.

We'll have to do viewer mail birthdays right here. Here on Thursday, May 2nd, if you don't mind, Blake. I've only got a few today. We have Dan, it is my mature Kobe Bryant birthday. 24? The two teenage girls in Jake's phone are my leaders, along with Pop Warner, with what Pop Warner invented, because you mock it.

And Mom, I Want to Vape from Jason Metzler. Uncle Hotmail, in the interest of making Jake unhappy on multiple fronts, I will wish my son a happy Marcus Simeon birthday today. Don't ask me. From Ryan Blue. Now, he did not give the name of his son, though. So he

must be a two-year-old kid that he just wants to make Jake mad. Is baseball the sport where you're least likely to know the player's number? Unless it's the New York Yankees, because that was the order. That was them in the batting order. Did you know that?

Oh, really? Like, Babe Ruth's number is three because he batted third. Lou Gehrig's number is four because he batted fourth. So they were the first team ever to have numbers. Keep it simple. Yeah, I like that. That was how they had one through nine. They complicate things.

All right. And, hey Hey Dumb Zone Uh I've shared a Video Audio clip I actually gave you A picture

Um From when my wife Turned 30 on Uh Okay We read this on the ticket She threw up the X At the Cowboy Stadium in her wedding dress.

That's so badass. Here's a current day photo of her. She just completed her MBA. Will also raise two girls, Evelyn and Olivia. Good names. I apologize for all the extra clothing. She was sad to recently hear that Dutch is dead. That was her favorite tier one host.

Well, tell me, we were almost out of time. We got that in the can. It fit. Nice. I'm working on selling her on the idea of hosting the dumb zone near Jake's hometown. We're in Benbrook. That's from Ben Haas. So he sent a picture of her.

He sent a clip. She's throwing up the X. He says great things about her. She's raised two girls. She's got an MBA, whatever the hell that is, and didn't give her name. So if you're married to Ben Haas, he seems to like you a lot, but he just knows you as his wife. You do not exist as far as...

Ben better just hope that two people don't reach out to you and say... Yeah, yeah, what if two people? Anyway. Elsewhere. On this day in 1863, during the Civil War, General... Confederate General. Sorry, Julie's going hoodie and Sinbad blanket. What is with...

Tried to warn you. I know. She's very cold. Sorry, sorry. Civil War. It's okay. General Thomas Stonewall Jackson, accidentally wounded by his own men in Virginia. He died eight days later. So he was kind of the original... Pat Tillman. The original Pat Tillman. On this day in 1939,

speaking of Lou Gehrig, he was hitting just 143 over eight games. He went to manager Joe McCarthy, said for the good of the game, he's taking himself out of the lineup. So his 2,130 game streak ended.

A streak that will never be broken. No one will ever play that many games in a row again. What is that? Is that many games in a row again. He's going to try and... What is that? Is that my computer? Oh, sorry. Just keeping it exciting around here.

It's fine. On this day in 2011, Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, who was killed hours earlier in a raid by elite American forces at his Pakistan compound was buried at sea. Do you think that was weird? When it happened? I don't remember that. Did they do that for some kind of a religious thing?

That's what I remember hearing at the time. But of course that immediately got into the conspiracy theories. Did they really get him? Do you want to try to play this? If they didn't get him John Cena What's John Cena got? So do you also recall I walk out here every night with

hustle, loyalty, respect on my sleeve John Cena's shirtless ripped That is a credo I have adopted for the men and women who defend the freedom of this country. Jean Shorts. Jean Shorts.

We have caught and compromised to a permanent end Osama bin Laden. But the crowd didn't know. That guy said we got him? That's where they found out. We got him? How weird. You also know that one of the first tweets, I believe maybe the first tweet,

about the death of Osama bin Laden was issued by The Rock. Oh, really? Yeah. He wrote the day of. just got word that will shock the world landed the free home of the brave damn proud to be an american on the day of and he said uh when asked about it i have my sources just got like he's got intelligence yeah how did he get it before everyone i'm gonna tell you exactly how Because Rock's done a bunch of USO tours and hung out with a bunch of super badass Green Berets and Navy SEALs and every type of elite special forces. And they get to know him a little bit, and he gets to know them a little bit.

And before they tell their mom, they're like, shit, I got to tell The Rock. That's exactly what happened. That's a great call. He's done everything. He's a true renaissance man. Breaking news. On this day in 2018, the Boy Scouts of America announced that they would now be called BSA.

Scouts BSA. They changed their official name. Uh-huh. Because they were about to let girls be Boy Scouts. Or Girl Scouts? Nope. Girls were Boy Scouts? No, girls could now be in Scouts BSA.

Yeah. Well, that's still not enough. Heavy reaction tonight to what Robert Gates, head of the Boy Scouts of America, had to say about the policy. Mary, I wish they'd stuck to their principles. It is, after all, a private organization. Because they caved to outside pressure, I don't respect them as much as I previously did. Paul, it's the Boy Scouts, not the gay boys.

The enormous amount of respect I had two days ago. It was off the charts. Yeah. But now, not as much. Dented at best. And, yeah. Today's birthdays include our good friend, Justin Monty Montemayor.

The great. Monty. I think he celebrates his birthday? His big old self. Probably with pool. Yeah. Little Kevin James comedy. Probably calls Blake. Yeah. They can watch a video together.

You start it in 3, 2, 1. They start the comedy special at the same time. I got a thing to go to tonight and he's actually just gonna hang out with me. Make me look thin. He's going to be your trainer. He's going to be my big gym. I subscribe to the Dan McDowell diet plan.

He makes me look agile. Damn. Damn. Yeah. Let's see. Former Ranger Niftali Feliz is 36. What a great moment. Former Ranger Jared Saltalamakia is 39.

Married his high school gym teacher. Oh. That is actually more interesting than what I was just thinking. Were you going to say his name goes all the way around his jersey and almost touches? That is not as interesting as what I was just thinking. Were you going to say his name goes all the way around his jersey and almost touches? That is not as interesting as what I was just thinking. The first walk-off in opening day history for Texas Rangers? Also not as interesting. Fun facts.

Who's going to win? My thing was I'm just realizing that these guys have a birthday and they were both in the same trade. They were both in the Teixeira trade. I'll take Julie's. You want Julie's? Is it more interesting? Is it Matt Harrison's birthday, too?

I vote on Jake's. It's also Matt Harrison's birthday. Yes, everybody they traded for was born on this day. Where does the opening day home run rank? I feel like I got to get you better than that. Just a walk-off. Not a home run, just single? I don't know.

That's got to be way down here. Yeah. It was a big moment. I got the third best note. Yeah, mine was the worst. Quick little note off. I like it. Brian Cardinal, 47.

Didn't he get the yips, too? Salt-O-Makia? Salty or Brian Cardinal? Salt-O-Makia. When he was in Boston, he couldn't throw it back to the pitcher, right? That sounds right. Yeah, I think you're right. I know one of – was it him or Taylor Teagarden?

But he could still throw to second on a dime, so every time he would throw down to second, the pitcher would have to catch. They really needed a pitcher, so let's just work around it. Good God, man, again. Former Dallas star Brad Richards, 44. Good dude. Did you know him at all? Yep. Okay, yeah, man, again. Former Dallas star Brad Richards, 44. Good dude. Did you know him at all? Yep.

Okay, yeah, I liked him. I did. Ralph lived with him. He did for a while. Turtle Creek. Yeah. That's where he lived. You know what he hated?

Who? Tucking in his shirt. Yeah. What if I could untuck this shirt? Isn't that his company, Untuck It? I don't know. He was definitely a part of it. Yeah. Wow, I didn't know that. shirt. Yeah. What if I could untuck this shirt? Isn't that his company, Untuck It? I don't know. He was definitely a part of it. Yeah.

Wow, I didn't know that. Yeah. He has a crazy laugh, too. Dude, kind of big teeth. Sorry, Brad. I mean, y'all can talk about girls that way, so why can't I say that? I would never say anything. I don't judge women based on their appearance.

Okay. I think it's more just that he's a dear friend of yours, and now you're... What do you think about dudes getting faked? I didn't say he's a dear friend. What would you think if Dan and I, if this thing really takes off, we take like a week off and we both come back? You want some big-ass veneers? They don't have to be big.

That's how you spend your money. Dude, because now that... Dude, I was just at Dr. Titan's store yesterday telling him I want them. I go, now that we're on video, because he was asking what we're doing. You're getting all self-conscious about your teeth. Might want to do a little advertising. I always have been. And I had braces as a kid, but my top ones are fine, but my bottom ones are not.

And so. Yeah, mine are just. Yeah. I would love to get new teeth. Seeing y'all transition into video people and like now you have to worry about all the stuff. This is great. We can work through this together.

I'll tell you what matters and what doesn't. Don't worry about your bottom teeth. Are you going to help me find my. What's each tooth cost like like a thousand bucks a tooth no yeah that much yeah yeah yeah it's like 20 grand i got i got i got a deal for 250 at tooth i wonder if i could still get that deal and get you all that deal so you've looked into this yeah well i have six veneers up top that have been there forever and they actually need to be replaced. Really? Mm-hmm. You're up here

where I can see them? Yeah. Just for cosmetic reasons? Yeah, what happened? Do you have little chiclet teeth? You get hit with a puck? None of the above. Anybody else? Was it... Oh, meth! It was the meth thing, right? I did have a phase, yeah.

Was it related? My sophomore year of high school. To disease? No, it's not a cancer thing. Was it bulimia? Because that'll rot your teeth, right? No, it wasn't bulimia. It was just when I was younger growing up in Dallas,

apparently there was a lot of fluoride in the water, and my parents told me to swish with fluoride every night, and I got over fluorided, and I got spots on my teeth. And I was interested in being a kid actor I know you make fun of kid actors and so my mom was kind enough to help me get new teeth like when I was I don't know it wasn't I wasn't super young maybe high school um and so I've had him for a long time I had him replaced in college and now I need him replaced again my teeth were kind of chipping and spotty they were getting getting gross. I know a bunch of people that I didn't know before.

I know that they have them now. And if you watch television, it's like half the dudes on TV. It's every actor. Oh, yeah. Like Michael Bay, I think, made... See, Michael Bay or one of his early movies, somebody made Ben Affleck do it to get a part. Made him get veneers?

Yeah, because his teeth were... I mean, if you were super rich, I don't know why you wouldn't have them. If you could have perfect teeth... Well, because it would only work if people didn't know what they looked like before. I mean, I guess it would still work, but... Yeah. Like, if we did it, we would get a lot

of shit for it. Well... But at least I wouldn't hate myself when I look in the mirror. But I'm glad you're talking about it now, because we can now handle that S. Yeah. Because we're throwing it out there. Yeah. Get your shots in now.

Yeah. We're going to do it. Yeah, just do it. We can all do it together. That's our goal. I'll do it with you. I mean, I'll do it with you. To make enough bank to do that.

As just a guest person on the show, but we can all be veneer buddies. on the show, but we can all be veneer buddies. But since we don't really have the money now, could we just get one tooth like every couple months? Yeah. As the business grows. Phases. Yeah.

And then you go, you see your friends, and they can see you've got like five, and you're like, business is good, eh? He's got more teeth oh guys tough month that one's falling out I love it you said that you were in a commercial oh gosh

I have an old commercial but I can't find it. The AOL commercial. Julie has been on a TV commercial, Radio Man. I remember. So have y'all. I saw it. We have? I don't know if it was on TV, but I saw y'all's commercial.

Good job. Oh, the YouTube thing? Yeah. Good job. We're open. You're superstars. For business. Y'all are cute.

So cute. Damn. Damn. Oh, don't say that. So big time. We'll have to find that for your next appearance. Instead of that, we could put the Julie, Mino, Abby, and Brittany photo on the screen. Can we publicize that?

The one that we could never use. Can I use it? That's not my choice, chief. Oh my god. We never used it, right? We never used it. I vetoed it. Is that why?

Yes. Yeah. Yeah, but you were not. In the end, you vetoed it. Yeah, but you were lobbied. To veto it? Yeah. You thought it would hurt your career, and I disagree.

Yeah, look how that turned out. Yeah, look, that's what I'm saying. Might as well throw a Hail Mary now. I don't care. You can show my Abby and Brittany thing. Does mine not care? Can you send it to Video Man real quick? Yeah, for sure. I saw you tapping around over there.

No, I didn't find it. I'll continue birthdays. The Rock is 52. Oh, wow. If you smell. We were just talking about him. Happy birthday, Rock. The Rock.

Mr. Rock. Jumanji, he's got so many great films, and this is what you go with? That's not a bad film. I know that you're lying because Kevin Hart said it. Actually, that's the surprising thing. No, I saw it with my kids. I feel like I like it.

This isn't even the real Jumanji. That's Welcome to the Jungle. Pat McAfee is 37. Does this camera follow me or no? Because I was thinking, what if I did the whole show standing up? Can we ever do that? Oh, you need a tank top. Yeah.

You need a robot camera. Yeah, also the camera. Don't break it. Yeah, I'll break it. Save the money for your teeth. All right, thanks for being on the show. Yeah, I think the map's good. Alright, thanks for being on the show And then, Blake, who are you? What's the other guy?

I don't know I could be AJ Hawk, I guess McLovin Just smoking a cigar At home It seems like it'd be tiring standing up I mean, I'm spent David Beckham is 49.

He's a hot. For sure. Tell me when you get the Julie picture so we can send it up. I'm trying, man, but dude, this is on the floor. Oh, I thought you sent it to Rob. I'm trying to find it. Oh, my God. We might not have it, but we'll see.

I got it somewhere. I know we have it somewhere. You'll find it eventually. We have it. Y'all do a show every day. Then we'll tweet it so that Brad Townsend can retweet it. One day she's crying now she's conjoined with an ex

co-worker. I can't remember what year we did it. That's the problem. No, no, I got it right here. Do you? Oh, no. There's like ten of them. Yeah, I'm trying to find the one. We should go through all the photos before., I'm trying to find the one. We should go through all the photos someday. These are the before.

So I'm trying to find the good one. It's tough to do all this on the fly. I guess you couldn't do it, could you, Blake? Paul George. I don't have the pictures. You have access to the Dropbox. It's not in there. Yes, it is.

Search Abby. ABBY? Yeah. Not working for me. Yeah, not in there. Yes, it is. Search Abby. A-B-B-Y? Yeah. Not working for me. Yeah, not me either. Take it back. Say sorry. I will not because I've just found it in the Dropbox.

What month? What folder? Give us something. I don't know. I've looked through every picture of the Dropbox. You need to be able to pull it out of your ass the second that Dan wants it, Blake. See? She understands me.

Right out of your ass. She knows. Paul George is 34. He's on the Clippers. Roy Hinson is 63. Boo. He was a childhood hero of mine. They traded him for the number one overall pick in the draft,

which turned into Brad Doherty. The Cavs did, by the way. Actor Kumail Nanjiani is 46. Is that the guy from Silicon Valley? Mm-hmm. I just watched episode one the other day because my wife's never seen it. Oh, you're going to re-watch? Yeah, I think it's fun.

It is. I do think the end, whenever, you know, probably, I guess for good reason, I don't know, when T.J. Miller got run, it had a bit of a drop-off. As we all feverishly look for a stupid picture. No, I got it. I'm going to have it, and then I'm going to tell you guys where it is in the drop-off. We got it.

We have it. We have it. Maybe I don't. Oh! Such a tease. This is unbelievable. It'll be okay. No one needs to see it in the end.

I literally saw it like a month ago. So I don't know what sort of monkey business is going on with this Dropbox, but we had it. You'll get it next time. Where was I? Oh, Ellie Kemper is 44. The Office. That is correct. The office. That is correct. The office.

See, I'm looking at the picture right now. Do you need me to help you? Yeah. Since you're working? You want, like, look. It says photo in apps. There's the picture, but then I can't find it. You know?

Okay, I'll just send that. Can I just send it to your phone? Huh? Jesus Christ. Y'all have drives and truck boxes and folders. How do you expect me to get? I don't know. Email it to yourself.

Hey, I got an idea Why don't you just get up real quick and put it in front of the camera On your computer That would work It will work I mean trust me you'll get the effect all the same Okay this is the Photo we made for our calendar One year

That never made it That we never put on the calendar because Julie thought this would be Bad for her career. I was just embarrassed. Okay. Oh, my gosh. You've never seen that one? That's disgusting.

Wait, it's me and me? We have a ton of them. We have you and Mino. Yeah, what do you think? I thought it was me and Mino. No, no, no. We had one with Mino and Mino. And then we have one with you.

Yeah, I made the right decision not letting that go on a calendar. I think this is the perfect moment for this picture to debut. All these years later after I was fired from something called The Freak, sitting here on something called The Dumb Zone. That's right. That's when this picture needed to debut. That's a Hail Mary to save your career right now. It just all makes sense in this moment.

It didn't make sense then. That was definitely me and Dan's idea. We got you guys to do it because in my head it was just so funny to imagine somebody sitting in an insurance office when May rolled around. It was very confusing. Someone walks up to talk about a deal and my double heads there

in their cube. The guy's like, no, it's like Abby and Brittany. That was a funny scenario to me. Okay, Born on this Day, Now Dead. Big Boss Man. Ooh. Dr. Benjamin Spock. Who used to do this, right?

Oh, yeah. That's cool. No, Dr. Benjamin Spock is the baby doctor. That used to be a big book. Nobody knows that? Is it like... Dr. Spock, yep child raising it's not anymore no yeah now everybody just raises their kid by instagram i was about to say the exact

same thing i get one now we just look on instagram for parenting one more spectrum parent today has kristin started just sending you stuff yes it's every day. I'm like, I'm never going to remember all this. It's like 10 tips per day. Yeah, yep. How to talk to your kids. Yeah, get on their level. Don't yell at them. Yep. Why don't you come do this, bitch? Internet lady. So easy for you.

And, Bourne, we have Ted Dabney. He's the co-founder of Atari. He invented Pong. Okay. He's dead now, though. Atari... Did you say Dabney? Atari was invented by an American? It says co-founder of Atari, so...

Yeah, the word Atari makes you think of non-American. Yeah. Like, Nintendo was obviously founded in Japan. Died in this day, still dead. Leonardo da Vinci. in Japan. Died in this day, still dead. Leonardo da Vinci. Do you know that da Vinci actually

saw the Beatles break up? You're thinking of a different guy. Oh. Oh, that's right. He died in 1519. He got so excited. He were excited about that fun fact. No, we always say that about Picasso.

Do you know Picasso? Yeah. We assumed he was around in like the 16th, 17th. Yeah, when you say the word Picasso, I'm like, oh, 1400s? When was he? No, he saw The Godfather. Like in the theater. Okay, yeah, that's weird.

A little bit mind-blowing. Well, yeah, I mean, it had to have been in the theater because they wouldn't have released it. On the cave wall. He saw the guy. Right, I guess that's a bad point. Had he seen it on video, he would have been even older. I said, in the theater. Yeah, he saw it on Amazon.

Caveman was like doing shadow puppets. Also died on this day, Osama Bin Laden Jr. Seau. Sui? Yeah. Got his brain studied. And? What, did this guy play football or something? Died on this day.
