Hey guys, it's us.
The Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe.
I'm Kevin.
And I'm Nick.
And guess what?
We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to it.
We're the first people to do podcasts.
We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions.
Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it.
But, you know, tired and sick.
Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you.
you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it.
Another podcast from some SNL late night comedy guy, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smygel
and friends. Me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you
funnier. This week, my guest, SNL's Mikey Day and head writer Streeter Seidel, help an
a cappella band with their between songs banter. Where does your group perform? We do some
retirement homes. Those people are starving for banter. Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and
friends on the ice.

Last night, a blown call changed a game.
This morning, the internet lost its mind, and nobody's telling you exactly what happened.
That's where SportsSlice comes in.
I'm Timbo, and every episode, we're cutting through the noise, breaking down the biggest
moments in sports and giving you the real story behind the headline.
And we're going straight to the source, the athletes themselves, their locker room stories,
their reactions in the moment, and the stuff nobody gets to hear.

Winning on Clay is an art.
The rallies are relentless.
And at the French Open, only the toughest survive.
I'd know.
I competed there for decades.
Join me, Renee Stubbs, on the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast for no nonsense breakdowns of the biggest matches, the toughest players, and the moments that define Roland Garris.
Jen should win.
She's an outsider to win the French friend.
and she likes Clay.
Listen, Leonard Rabakina is arguably the best player in the world right now
and I actually can win on any surface.
Listen to the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast on the IHeart Radio app,

Presented by Capital One, founding partner of IHeart Women's Sports.
She had an extra movement after the ball and just elbowed and nailed Lexie right in the fucking face.
Like, too much, way too much.
And Lexi, like, it was bad.
And that should have been upgraded because I know.
If I was anyone on our team, if it was me, probably because I talked shit on here and then my reputation, they would have probably thrown me out.
Good morning.
Good morning, West.
How are you?
I'm good.
I think we should start this podcast episode by asking, Sophie, did you use the restroom since we last talk?
Honestly, do I have a hell of a bowel movement story for you?
I'm sad.
So yes.
and I think that I've lost about 20 pounds.
So cheers.
Oh.
So then the laxatives are working.
Dude, listen to this.
So I, it had been almost like a good week.
And I like, I took, so it says on the box to take two laxatives.
And I did.
And within like an hour and a half, nothing was happening.
So I'm like, all right, maybe I'm just like that backed up.
And so I took three more.
So I think I might have like overdosed a little bit.
Dude, I was ready to be done.
Oh my gosh.
I'm not kidding.
I had no, but listen, it was supposed to work within like an hour to like two hours.
I did not go until like the next day.
And then after that I was like on the toilet the entire time.
I had to cancel meetings.
My agents were calling.
I had big sponsors and endorsements of meetings.
I did cancel everything because I was literally on the toilet.
for the next day.
It was awesome.
I can only...
I can only imagine
how special
that the whole day was for you.
It sounds beautiful.
I don't think I'll ever do laxatives again
because I always, like,
it always sounds good,
but you know when you get those cramps?
Yeah.
God, you get the hot sweats.
Yeah, but I do think
when you do take painkillers,
especially post-surgery,
it's like known that you have
to take laxatives to like counter the painkillers.
So you didn't do anything wrong.
Maybe you just took a lot, but I bet it was worth it.
Oh, I will never do that again.
Don't overdose on laxatives.
Wow.
That's a fun Labor Day weekend, though, for you.
While you were on your pain meds,
is that when you posted the picture of your ass on Instagram?
How did you know?
I don't know.
I'm joking.
what? I think that's what I commented. I said put down the
to painkiller so we... I think you did.
Because that since surgery, like last episode, I don't really, I don't remember what we talked
about. Like, I don't, I don't remember much at all.
4,724 comments on that picture. Not bad.
Yeah, that's a mistake. It was, it was sent around. It was DM 32,000 times.
I should also, I should also say,
how much I love
Caitlin's comments
on all of your
risque Instagram.
It's so funny.
She's such a hater.
But she does it so tastefully, like, it's so funny.
She said...
No, she's not...
What?
She said, geez, Sophie.
And then she said, like, nope, can't like this.
I often if she wanted to buy a truck,
I could get her a great deal, a great discount.
What is this? Chevy?
GMC.
Oh, GMC.
I think that...
I drove a GMC at Rockbridge.
Do you remember?
It was red?
Yeah.
Yes, I do remember that.
Yeah.
I haven't had a car in six years, but here we are.
How's your weekend?
Well, I think I kind of just told you my weekend.
It was...
Yeah, it's true.
It was on the toilet.
I feel like I was peeing out of my ass, so that was fun.
Love.
And I posted a thrift trap out of that same ass.
That's horrible.
That's really bad.
My weekend.
Great.
They all say that Labor Day is the end of summer.
I don't know if that's true or not.
But yeah,
she was in the Hampton, saw some friends.
I saw you on a TikTok.
You guys are filming for something.
There's a huge thing.
And you were like carrying a spike ball
and then trying to take off your burks.
Oh, yeah, that was on the beach.
Whenever we go to the beach, people film us.
Yeah, and I had on socks.
I guess we could talk about that.
I had on socks.
under my burkenstocks.
Birkenstocks are kind of rough,
and they really rub my feet, like, in the worst way,
and I get blisters if I don't wear socks.
I had on socks on the whole day,
hopped right into a pair of clogs,
and then, yeah, was on the beach,
took my socks off, and then walked normally,
and there were a bunch of people, like, annoyed I wore socks to the beach,
but, like, whatever.
It's not like I wore them in the sand.
Yeah, but it was just funny.
It was like the most best thing ever.
I got so many people commenting like,
Sophie, get your man.
Like, oh, that's just him being him.
Fuck off, everyone.
It's also chilly.
I had a sweater on over my t-shirt.
Like, it was a nice, cool, brisk September day.
Wait, but didn't you,
I saw that you guys went to the launch a soft bar.
Yeah.
So that's been in the works for a long, for a long time.
It's a beautiful.
beautiful space.
Wait, tell people what Sahara is if they're not familiar with it.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
Okay.
So on my show, there's a guy named Carl Radke who has been sober for, I don't know for a fact.
I think it's four or five years, but he's like very passionate, very articulate, like about his sober journey and trying to like share his story with other people.
and so he is opening a bar in Brooklyn called soft bar where it's I want to make sure I get all the
verbiage correct because he's been very intentional about it but it's like drinks with benefits
and non-alcoholic premium beverages and premium coffee so it's like a space where people
who aren't drinking whether that's sober for life or are just like you know like there are so many times
especially living in New York where I'm like, holy shit,
like a friend's in town, whatever, and I want to, like, go out,
but I, like, really don't want to drink that night.
And you, like, can go there and have coffee.
Like, they had espresso martinis.
They had fruit and stuff.
Drinks with benefits?
Is that like the, there's, like, vitamins and, like,
stuff that's beneficial to your body?
Or is it just, like, the kind of plant, like, drinks with benefits?
Well, there are, there's, like, mushroom coffees and stuff like that.
But then there's also, like, electric.
But not, like, mushrooms are getting.
Now is you burning people into druggies?
No, it's not even like, it's not like mushrooms that get you, like, fucked up.
It's like mushrooms that like have like health benefits and like Zen knew out or whatever.
And also people use mushrooms now a lot for like a lot of things.
Like it's mushroom powder.
But then there's ones with like electrolytes.
There's ones with caffeine.
There's ones with magnesium.
And they're all like good for you essentially.
But they're beautiful.
They have like a ton of bartenders who are like very invested in what they're doing.
And so we went to like a friends and family event and got to like see it in real time.
The building looked beautiful.
I'm not just saying this.
And for people who haven't watched the show, which I know a lot of people are starting to now,
so Carl used to date Lindsay and they were engaged and they were like he was discussing this with Lindsay while they were engaged.
And like she kind of shot it down.
And I get her perspective too, but I also get his.
And so for him to like actually now.
do it and it like be worth that.
Yeah. Cool.
The original concept was a sober sports bar and Lindsay shot that down and I,
yeah, I think that was good for him to kind of like pivot and figure out like what this was
going to be.
So I do think sports bar with no alcohol is, would be a bit challenging.
Yeah.
But I think this is like, it was good.
But like, he made it better.
This is like a more upscale.
and it's nice inside and it's like really pretty
and they have like an event space in the back
where people can like have meetings and present and talk
and like they have a pop-up bar in the back
like where people who are introducing like now there's so many like
drinks that have like THC in them and like all these like just
interesting weird pivots on like drinking alternatives
and so people can go like try to you know
test out their products in his bar so like it'll be it'll be fun
but we went to that and showed some love.
No, it looked beautiful,
and I was really excited for it to talk about it
because I think next time we should go there
when I'm in New York.
But I think it's really smart that he actually put in event space
because you can make more commission back there
so you're not just relying so heavily on the drinks.
You know what I mean?
So like he's getting it from both sides.
That sounds awful.
Carl is also probably the biggest, like, sports fan
on our show aside for me.
Really?
And so he, well, yeah, when we launched this, he was, like, stoked.
Because he obviously knows who you are.
Wait, can we get Carl on the show?
Yeah, Carl would do this in two seconds.
He would be, he would be thrilled.
He's from Pittsburgh.
He's got, like, Midwest sports in his blood, you know?
Oh, dude, that just, like, fucking hype me up.
How are you feeling so?
I'm good, but I just have a lot to get off now that I'm in a right mind.
Oh, yeah.
Um, cake balls back.
I've been dying to ask.
We, uh, how you hurt yourself?
Did you guys win?
No, we, so we just got like let in.
So it's like season starts in two weeks.
But we like, our team got into the league that I was like really nervous we weren't going to get in.
Why?
It sells out fucking so fast.
And I like was not paying attention and like missed it.
but the way they do it is they used to have people could join by themselves
and just be like free agents and send to other teams and now they like it's only team
so there's like a lot of there's no space for if you don't fill your team up so then if teams
don't fill their roster up you have to I'm sure have more than like 15 but we have like
25 it's fun but I was so nervous that they weren't going to let us in
and I was like,
I don't know how to like tell you guys
that this means everything to me
and I don't get to like, I'm not,
I like have to be in a sports league in the fall
or I will fucking die.
And it finally happened.
God bless, Thursday nights in Chelsea.
But I think we're going to have to start doing,
it's going to be a weekly segment.
You're going to have to say,
what's the score?
And I'm going to give you a break up.
How does every, if you have 25 people,
how does everybody play?
not everyone's playing in the field at once,
but like you go through your whole, like,
line up.
Yeah.
25 people out there.
But it's,
uh,
it is co-ed.
So it's like,
you can't have dudes kick more than three times in a row.
So girls have to be like in the batting lineup like so frequently.
And you have to have at least five girls in the outfield at all times.
Wait,
can I say something mean?
Yeah.
It's like not.
mean because I know I should be more about like women's sports, but like these girls on your team,
do they actually know how to kick a ball or is it like, oh God, she's on?
No, that's why kickball is the best co-ed sport is because you can like, everyone can kick a
ball and baseball kickball is so random, like where the ball falls.
Like a lot of the girls who are just like, I'm here for the T-shirt.
Like they still kick singles all the time.
Yeah, I pop out more than some of the girls do.
It's like hit or miss.
And it's also a big round fucking red ball.
So like the most hype moments in kickball
are when one of the girls who's like not paying attention
catches a pop fly and all the dudes are like,
let's fucking go.
Like just so hype for her, you know?
And it's beautiful.
And it's truly beautiful.
Well, I just love, I just remember last year you would be playing
and you guys would all be wearing like your,
I think it was like a blue shirt?
I've been.
I've been blue orange yellow.
and pink in order.
Yeah, I can't remember, but you guys would always go,
and then you guys would all go drink after.
Like, like, die bar, like burgers and whatever.
So here's the thing.
Every game on the schedule is worth two points.
So you would either be one,
you would either be two and oh or oh and two after the game.
Then you go to the bar and you do best of seven Flipcup
against the team that you just played.
And then that's one more point for the night.
So Flipcup is a part of your record.
you have to go.
So could you be two and one?
Yeah, so you could be like if you won the kickball game but then lost Flip Cup,
you're two and one for the night.
So then that's your record.
So then you're like,
you're stacking like a lot of numbers,
but,
um,
dude,
that's actually dope.
I thought you were just going for like making a tradition,
but the backup they put that in there too is kind of fun.
Yeah.
So then you're like playing the team and like you can,
it's to either salvage the night or like really put a stamp down.
the bar and it's so fun and that gets like more intense sometimes that even kickball because like
you put someone in and they can't fucking land the flip cup and you're like dude get out here like
see you later like we need someone good uh which is been like 1040 yeah so you should go like
oh great well actually i was thinking about maybe i could do a guest appearance but i anything
even regarding walking or trying to sit on the toilet just kills my knees so i can't even
imagine trying to play fucking kickball do you know it's so crazy
my biggest
memory,
like bad memory
from when my leg
was broken
post surgery
was trying to sit
on the fucking toilet
and I couldn't
get up
and I couldn't
bear weight
on my left side
and I made me
want to cry
every single time
so just so I'm thinking
about you.
Thank you
but I've only
an appearance
to flip cup
I guess I just
realize you probably
won't be good
until
when's your time
timeline for
return
they say like four months
yeah
they say like
four months. I'd say like January, February, but I feel like I,
not trying to say anything, but I think I heal quicker and recover quite fast. And so
it may be a tab before, but oh my gosh, I can't. Let's knock on wood for that one.
Probably smart. I don't have wood around me, so.
I got you. CC, new logo. Fucking sick. Do you like it? Are you excited?
Dude, I'm so proud of her. And honestly, I'm really proud of all women in our league that have a logo.
because they truly are all badasses and they deserve it.
And so I do think Caitlin was next.
And yeah, like it's so simple,
but it's still abstract and confusing enough that it fits her perfectly.
And so I'm excited.
Like, it's awesome.
She deserves it.
I want one of her little diamond necklaces.
I don't want the T-shirt.
I want the diamond necklace she had.
She's selling jewelry?
No, but she's just, you know, sporting all of her, like, little boozy.
diamonds and shit. So I might have to steal that from her locker when she's doing rehab.
But is it the logo like in the diamond form? Yeah. That's tight. That's super sick. She
walked in which like when people get logos like brands and everyone they go all out. So like she
came in with like pants that had her logo. I think there was a sweatsher that her boyfriend Connor
was wearing. Then she had like a diamond necklace that had it. So they swacked her out. But I'm
pumped for it. She deserves it.
What to you is like a beautiful, perfect basketball shoe?
Like, do you ever wear low tops?
I feel like no.
I always wear low tops.
You do wear low tops?
Yeah.
I don't know how people hoop with low tops on.
Why?
Do you tape then?
Well, after I fucking broke my ankle, yeah, but no.
I hadn't taped for four years.
That's absolutely mind-boggling to me.
Why?
What about like, there's no, you have no ankle support if you wear low tops and don't, don't tape.
Well, I have strong ankles.
Like, I feel good.
I guess, yeah.
I will.
If you had two good shoulders, are you going to wear a shoulder race?
No, but it's sleep.
Like, it doesn't impact, like, it doesn't get in the way, I feel like.
But anyways, because, like, I'm trying to think of signature low tops.
Like, I think Kobe's were lows.
but everyone else.
So really pretty much everyone has
like a lot of people have like
top mid and lows so they kind of can get hit
all markets like it's a good strategy.
Some people like I know Hardin
Hardin kind of stays with the mid because that's like
that's the only thing he wears and whatnot.
But I like basketball shoes that are like tennis shoes.
So it's not like I'm running around in the backyard.
You know what I mean? Like I don't want something that's chunky.
I want something light and something
this is like I'm just on a walk or on a ride.
Who's your brand?
Oh, I'm Adidas.
Three Stripes, baby.
I'll give you some Adidas, Mag.
You need to start rocking it.
They're great.
Great people, too.
When did they sign you?
I think like four years ago,
but I just re-signed an extension.
But I'm trying to kind of hope that maybe we can switch that contract up
because I think they got me for a steal after I beat somebody up.
What goes into?
signing with a shoe brand as a basketball player?
Like, is it best offer?
Do you try to stick with who you wore, like, in college?
What's that process?
Honestly, I think for me it's best offer,
but I wore Nike's all growing up.
And I remember I had a couple of Ditas's,
but I loved Adidas.
But, like, just our high school,
we'd get free Adidas from, like, the,
because you get like a team, whatever, team shoe.
And then in college,
Reprise was Adidas, that's right.
Yeah.
And then Missou was Nike.
And so I just kind of got stuck wearing Nike's,
but then I switched and like,
the thing that I love about Adidas,
honestly, their basketball shoes are amazing,
and I'm not just saying that.
They have a lot of good athletes who have great,
um, signature shoes and whatnot.
But their streetwear is so fucking swaggy.
Like our,
our street style, top notch, like top notch.
For sure.
If you are signed with Adidas,
can you like be seen as?
in public in a Nike shoe or do you
like have to have Adidas
on at all times and have to be conscious
of what you're wearing?
Well, I don't have to be
conscious because I actually prefer
Adidas now that I'm wearing it
and I'm an athlete like I'm not kidding. Their stuff is
just way more comfy. Their shoes are swaggy. Like I'm not
I actually want to wear it.
I don't know. I'm just saying that for real like yeah I think
everyone else mad to be honest about it. But
there is one time that I was
it was winter
and I was self-tanning
because I had an event.
And I just threw on this, like, huge baggy T-shirt.
I think it was like one of my ex-boyfriend shirts, and it was Nike.
And I posted something on Instagram, and I got in huge trouble.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Huge trouble.
And I was like, oh, my God.
I was like, I'm so sorry.
I was trying to find a dirty T-shirt, so I didn't, like, ruin one.
But, yeah, you'll get in trouble for all that.
That makes sense.
I do, should.
If they're bringing you and giving you free profits, you should get in trouble.
Yeah, I agree.
But I always think when it's clothing-wise,
like you're not necessarily like going outside to like posts.
But if you were like if you were seen in something like that would be crazy.
But I do want to bring up one thing.
This podcast has made quite a splash in the WNBA world,
whether that's you being fined or just people like locking in.
And Skip Bayliss,
the biggest shit talker, dumb idiot in media.
I watched the tape.
It felt a little clickbaity headline-wise
because he didn't actually come at you that much.
But the headline said,
what did something, clout chaser?
Fucking, I don't know.
Dude, Skib, who's the clout chaser?
You're literally using my name as your headline
so people can click on it.
And like, my thing is, I don't mind the guy.
Like, I don't mind the guy.
Like, I have no beef with you.
I've never met you.
I've actually really never listened to you.
Like, I don't, like, I just some kind of in my lane.
and someone sent it to me and I was like, what is this?
He's calling me a Cloud Chaser.
Dude, you're the one who has my name plastered all over your freaking YouTube that had 36 views.
Like, get out of here.
Pretty awesome.
But that's kind of all he's done his whole career.
So it's just funny.
Hey, it's us, the Jonas brothers.
And guess what?
We have some big news.
What's the news?
Huge news.
We created our own podcast called Hey Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to it.
We're the first people to do podcasts.
Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there.
But this one's extra special.
So how do we actually come up with a name Hey Jonas, guys?
I honestly don't remember.
I think it was on a call about what we should call it.
Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers.
This is how you guys remember it going down?
Yes.
I have a very different memory of this.
We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast,
where people could call in and say, Hey, Jonas.
And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey, Jonas,
and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.
But thanks for remembering that, guys.
Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,

I'm Renee Stubbs, and on the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast, I'm breaking down everything happening
at Roland Garris, every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on Clay.
Jenchian win.
I mean, she went down in three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted.
She's an outsider to win the French for me.
And she likes Clay.
Listen, Lina Rabakina is arguably the best player in the world right now, and I actually can win on
any surface, because if she's serving, well, good luck.
Consider this your court-side seat to the French Open.
Listen to the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Presented by Capital One, founding partner of IHeart Women's Sports.
I listened to it, and like he was, I think he was being complimentary in some areas, which like, I guess thank you.
But like, for people who know me and people who have actually been paying attention to basketball,
before Caitlin got here or when she did get here,
they started paying attention to everyone.
I've always been this way.
Like, I've always been like, in college I was that way.
Like, don't, like, don't mess with my teammates.
Don't mess with me.
Don't mess with my teammates.
I'm feisty.
I'm sassy.
I'm goofy.
Like, I'm probably the most unsurious person that you'll ever meet.
And people who don't know me probably think that, like,
I'm a big bitch, which I can probably understand that.
But, like, him coming at me.
And I'm like, dude, you, you just sounds.
so typical. So just get off my screen. I stopped watching.
Now that you do play with, I guess you've played with superstars in Phoenix, too, but
like Caitlin is like one of one, I guess. But like, do people try to use your proximity to
joining a superstar to like diminish your, not legacy, but like your ability to play basketball,
your ability to be your own brand, your ability to be your own person.
Yeah.
I think it's funny that people always, first of all, I just have a lot to say about this.
So just give me, give me my soapbox for like two minutes.
Yeah, yeah, I want you to go.
Here's my thing.
People are like Skip and others like, oh, she's just tag on.
No, I actually like Caitlin.
And I'm just being real and truthful that she has brought millions.
Billions, millions.
I wouldn't be surprised if it's billions of eyes onto the W
and onto women's sports.
Like, she is a Kobe Bryant.
And that's how Diana was.
That's how Sue was.
We've had these types of people,
but this is just bigger because the media platform is bigger
than it ever has been.
And so I'm just, I don't know if I'm only the only ones who are,
I don't have an ego, so I'm able to just tell the truth.
Like, if it was someone else, I'd like, yeah, like, Angel Reese,
she's also brought millions of fans.
You know what I mean?
I think Caitlin has brought way more,
but I also think she has too.
Like, I'm just not naive
and I might be blunt,
but I'm not fucking dumb.
So people who say,
I'm clashes or no,
I'm just being honest about
why the league is where it is at.
Like,
give the girls the flowers.
Like,
give it to them.
They deserve it.
Whatever.
And then when people,
like, come at me and like,
oh, she averages eight points a game and
I'm like,
yeah,
and how many pro sports?
minutes have you played?
And what do you do?
You're sitting on your couch
just talking shit on me.
All right, well, you bring attention to me, you're
making me more money, so keep talking your shit.
But my thing is also, like, if you really
do your research, like,
I don't know, I've been shoot the shit out of the ball.
Like, I've been playing good basketball.
It's not all about scoring.
Like, I've literally
been the blue to our team.
Like, I'm our energy.
I know what I bring to the table.
So you try to come at me, you will never get
to me because, first of all, I don't care enough.
And second of all, who are you?
Like, I just get two shits.
And I think that's my biggest, my best attribute is I don't give a shit.
And sometimes that's why I get fine because I don't give a shit.
So for people who come at me, if other stuff, good for you.
Like, I hope you got your rocks off.
It is interesting how the, in sports in general, just the closer you are to someone who's
already established, people use that to like diminish your game.
and it'll be this way forever.
You know, towards the end of the season, shit,
I was averaging like 15.
I had one of the best percentages of the W.
I think I was leading the W in percentages at three points.
So like, I know what I bring to the table.
And it's not like I'm out here like,
well, I'm better than Caitlin and I'm better than Nefisa and I'm better than Breit.
Like, I'm not comparing my,
I hate all those are freaking superstars.
Like, I know my lane.
I stay in my lane, but I also talk my shit too.
And I'll back up people that I love.
And for me, backing up Caitlin or,
people talking shit trying to diminish me like I don't care like you're still making me money because you're talking about me so thank you
fuck yeah so
speaking of people getting roughed up on your team our sweet girl lexie with the double black eyes um sick picture though that she'll get to keep uh forever and show her
you know, her grandkids and be like,
I was eating elbows in the WNBA for a long time.
But I don't know.
I know we got to tread lightly with ref talk,
but like,
just run me through what you saw.
And tell us how tough Lexia is, first off.
Well, I don't think I have to
to numb it down.
I think if I say the word ref on this podcast,
I'm going to get fine.
So I might as well go balls to the wall.
First of all, have you seen like the pictures, though,
of Lexi.
Yeah.
Dude.
Brutal.
It's crazy.
She's so pretty that if anyone's going to look like that,
let it be Lexi because she can still somehow make it look pretty in a way.
It's a dark mascara.
Yeah.
Yeah, something.
So what kind of really pissed me off about last week are three things.
And again, I was high on meds.
But it still triggered my hate for the refs.
So they were playing Minnesota,
which Minnesota is a great, great team.
But I think that what is kind of getting out of hand
is the rest are making, allowing it to be too physical.
And then people can get away with certain stuff.
And then that's when emotions flare.
And that's when you kind of see fights or people doing things
that they probably shouldn't be doing.
And so there's a jump ball and we can play the clip.
There's a jump ball.
And they called it or they called a foul, whatever.
And then after the play,
McBride, who is a hell of a shooter.
She's been shooting the shit out of it.
She's a great, great player,
so I'm not going out to her in any way.
But she had an extra movement after ball
and just elbowed and nailed Lexi right in the fucking face.
Like, too much, way too much.
And Lexi, like, it was bad.
And that should have been upgraded because I know if I was anyone on our team,
if it was me, probably because I talked shit on here and then my reputation,
they would have probably thrown me out.
And so that's,
that's not okay.
So that happened to, like, she got nailed, like, probably was concussed.
I have no idea.
I felt so bad for the girl.
She's probably the one of the toughest players you will ever meet, and I think that's
why I love her so much because she was just plays hard and she's fucking tough.
And she's a great teammate, great person.
Yeah.
And then the next game, we played Seattle, who's also a great team.
They're kind of struggling.
We beat him.
Woof, who I like 20.
Whew!
So.
Yeah, there's been big margins of victory the last few days.
And then her and Gabby, which Gabby's awesome.
She's like one of my good friends.
She did not mean to, but her and Lexi on accident nailed each other.
And then that's where Lex immediately had like a huge nod.
That's what gave her the five guys.
She looked like an avatar.
She sent me a picture and I like FaceTime to her immediately.
And I was like, dude, are you okay?
I was like, there's no way you're not concussed.
And I like texted Caitlin immediately during the game.
I was like, how concussed is Lex?
And Lexi's like, actually, it kind of woke me up.
Like I think my journal in here and like I feel better than I have like the past couple
weeks. Like, I'm not concussed. I feel good. And I was like, there's no fucking way.
And so she's good, but she looks brutal. But I did not like that against
Mugide. And then the Gabby accident was just an accident. So that's fine.
I feel like if there was anyone who would endorse the refs letting girls play,
letting the game flow, like let it be physical as long as you're calling it fair.
I think that that would be you.
I agree. Like, I am for physicality.
But like you got to, there's a certain, we are elite level athletes and it is physical and you get frustrated and you get tired of people hitting you.
But yeah, it's going to get out of hand.
And that's where I think everyone is just like, like jump balls.
Call a jump ball fast.
So then you're not like.
Yeah, get it over.
Yeah.
Just do it.
Like both teams want you to call it.
So just call it.
You know what I mean?
It's just like little things like that.
And then Kelsey Mitchell, we went to L.A. and beat L.A., which was a huge, huge win for us when it comes to where.
where we're at in the standings and wins and losses and whatnot.
Kelsey Mitchell should be MVP.
She is playing the best basketball anyone has played all year.
She's been playing the best basketball of her career.
She's a phenomenal player.
Nobody can stop her.
Literally, Wes, when I tell you, no one can stop her.
It doesn't matter who you have on her, any defensive scheme.
She's still scoring 30 on your head.
Like, it's insane.
Oh.
Love playing with her.
But she had the ball at the top of the key.
and right in front of a ref
Kelsey Plum
literally grabbed her arm
and like kind of flung her around
and Kelsey like spun.
Like how are you not calling that?
You're protecting all the other stars in a league.
Why would you not protect Kelsey?
Like that, it's just like stuff like that
that just really grinds my ears and then...
That's your fine right there, Sophie.
Wait, what did I say?
You just said,
you're protecting all the other stars.
How are you not protecting?
Kels.
I didn't,
I didn't even think that was bad.
It's not.
Sensitive. People are sensitive.
So enough about the W.
I think that I've said enough.
I got my rock song because I'm trying to protect my girls because it's just been ridiculous.
So time for Westworld.
Dude, are you so high for the NFL's first week?
Like, give me everything.
Um, this is like why I was put on this earth is to wake up in the morning,
go get maybe a little ice coffee and turn a corner in New York City and then have a fall
breeze fucking hit me right in the face and be like, oh, I'm going to need to put a hoodie on
and then drink beers and watch football this weekend.
Like, I just fucking love the fall, Sophie.
It is so fun.
And it just makes me so happy.
And, yeah, Chiefs, Montana State.
I've been paying more attention to Missouri, honestly, in the last few years.
But there's just something about a fall breeze and football.
Like, I'll also say this.
New York City in the fall, like, the city is like, there's a lot of transplants, right?
So everyone's from everywhere.
a Sunday in Manhattan
is just a bunch of groups of friends
in different bars and everyone's got their stuff on
from where they're from
like chiefs for me
like there's Vikings people over here
there's pat like it just is so cozy
and there's so much good energy
I can talk about this for a whole podcast episode
but it is just so far
this is the most like exciting
and like awake and high five seeing you
since we've started this podcast
I think it's because the NFL is here
and follows here.
And it also helps that, like, yeah, the NFL's quite fun being a chief fan the last few years.
There's a lot of other teams we, you know, could have to be born in that state, but we weren't.
We were lucky.
But, yeah, Chiefs play the Charters on Friday.
They're playing in Brazil, which the NFL now is, like, going international, like, super hardcore balls to the wall.
I think it's eight different countries this year.
Wow.
And a lot of people, I'll also just say,
we don't have to get too into the weeds,
but like the media loves,
and I get it honestly to a point
where you like need to say different shit
and like you can't just beat a dead horse
and say the same stuff.
And like, oh, we love the chiefs.
But like people have picked the chargers
and the Broncos to win the AFC West.
I think the Chiefs will make the playoffs.
But they've been saying this for the last seven years.
And at this point, I kind of just like stay quiet and wait until the middle of the season
when the Chiefs have like a two-game leading the AFCUS and people just have to realize
that they're wrong again.
I get that that people get tired of the Chiefs and people whatever.
But like in history, when you look back in 25, 50 years, like, why would we not embrace this time
that we're watching a freaking dynasty.
Why would we not hype that shit up?
People get bored.
And people, it gets old and that they're easy to do on new stuff and get jealous, you know?
Work harder.
Get better athletes.
Pay them more.
But it's not boring if you're a Chiefs fan.
I will say, though, that part of the reason why the Chiefs being good
or why NFL dynasties are so much harder to come by is that the NFL does have a salary cap,
and so you can't, unlike baseball, like, everyone's paying their team accumulatively the same thing.
So, like, the structure and the way that these owners and GMs have to, like, build a team
and somehow keep them, keep success going is, like, really, really impressive.
and yeah, Micah Parsons just got traded to the Packers.
I know.
I saw that.
I just thought to bring that up.
He's making more than Patrick Mahomes.
Like on a year-to-year salary.
Mahomes' contract obviously is like super deep.
And he signed it for like 10 years or whatever.
But like Mahomes knows he makes money in endorsements.
He knows that he's going to be remembered by Super Bowls and team success so he takes less money.
and like
tell other QBs to take less money.
The Dak Prescott makes so much money
and they're fucking horrible.
Well, I was just trying to say that
I think people are so worried
about that number that they sign
and to an extent you should be in a way.
But if everyone is taking less
and you're able to stack a team
and you win and you continue to win,
all of that is going to come back
through endorsements and other things times 20.
So it's just like, let your ego go.
Who cares what your salary says.
You're good.
Stack your fucking team.
Go win a championship.
And now everyone's thriving.
It just makes sense to me to take less so you can stack your teeth.
I think it's easier said than done for sure,
especially when you have an agent in your year who also makes money off of what your contract is.
And as professional athletes, your window for making a lot of money is obviously shorter than if you were,
like an orthopedic surgeon or whatever.
Like you have like 10 years, if that.
So I get it and I'll never be a hater for someone like taking,
like getting their bag when they need to.
But there are instances where like Tyree Kill left the chiefs for like a little more money
and like he was he was already established.
The chiefs would have paid him well.
And if I'm him and my QB is Patrick Mahom.
and I'm playing next to Travis Kelsey
and my head coach is Andy Reid.
Yeah, I would hope that I could recognize
in that moment that like it's probably better for me
to stay in Kansas City than go to Miami
where so many,
there's so many question marks and make a little more money.
There's also no income tax there,
which is kind of cool, but you know, for sure.
And I did that.
And I will never hate on someone going to get the bag, like you said.
But I also think winning helps everybody.
I agree.
And winning helps your bank account.
And winning helps.
everything.
So you also have to
money is the root of all evil too.
So.
Oh,
is he still,
is Tyree Kill still on Miami?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because I'm actually going to the Colts
in Dolphins game on Sunday.
Oh, did I,
did I inspire you to go
show the Colts tomorrow?
Yeah.
And like I'm going to travel with the team.
And like one of my best friends
from A. U. Ball, she's married to
Zach Seeler who is
he's like a
really good. He sacks the quarterback. What is that? A D-9? Yeah, Sophie, lock in.
They are an awesome, awesome family. Love that. Well, anyways, I think that'll be good.
They'll probably push you on the Jumbotron and go just plant those Indianapolis roots, you know,
showing that you care. And it's good.
Dude, so who are you like looking forward to, though? Like, I haven't, I've kind of been in
my own world. So, like, what do I need to be watching out for for week one?
Week one, I just now, to be so honest,
like this is crazy and super spoiled,
but I, the Chiefs just,
whatever they do in the regular season,
I don't put all my fucking coins into it
because they peak in December
and then they turn shit up when the playoffs start.
Like, they can do it.
They can do it.
Yes, I agree.
I think with the Chiefs,
you always want to see how they draft.
and see if there's any rookies that are going to, like, ball out.
And I think they're, this is going to be, like, super random for you.
But, yeah, they drafted a left tackle who I think is going to be really good from Ohio State.
And some skill players across the board.
And so you kind of just, like, see how Andy Reid, like, peels back the layers and test things out.
And then we'll sit on stuff until the playoffs.
But for me, it's just, like,
For me, it's just like the camaraderie of football season.
People just tailgating going out, going to bars, going to games, traveling away.
Like, it just is, it's lovely.
Hey, and for our listeners, I think we're going to go to a couple games
and maybe do a couple live shows.
I think it's in the works.
So that'd be kind of fun.
People are dying.
Dude, people are dying for us to come out of voice and merch.
Say what?
And we're going to do a, we should do an episode from Andy's bus.
Yes.
On top of the bus.
The Cool Bus.
I think to kick football off,
you're going to do a little Chiefs trivia.
Oh,
you and I.
I'm going to be so bad at this.
I didn't write these questions.
These were our boy Kevin.
West, you're going to know like all these.
I'm not going to know anything.
Kevin told me that they're really hard.
So.
All right.
You ready?
Right.
Yeah.
The Chiefs defeated the 49ers and took home
the title in Super Bowl,
LIV. I think it's 50. That was Super Bowl 50. What color was the Gatorade bath after the win?
A, purple, B, orange, C, red, or D, yellow. I've got it between two. Yeah, it's not purple.
I think it is purple. I would. Oh, is it if? I'm going A.
Okay, well, I think I'm going to go D yellow. It's orange. Damn it.
All right. Oh, no.
B, orange.
All right.
That's fair.
Screw that one up.
That's okay.
Okay, I got number two.
Yeah.
Patrick Mahomes is the fastest quarterback in NFL history to reach.
How many passing yards?
My first thought is you just go the first one,
because, like, if he was choosing that fast,
but I don't think 10,000.
I'm going to go see 20,000.
I don't really know.
I think I'm going to go
B
20,000 C
All right, that's one.
Question three, he won a national
championship at Texas in 2005
alongside freshman teammate Vince Young.
Who is his former chief
All-Pro running back?
A, Priest Holmes, B, Jamal Charles,
C, Derek Johnson, D. Larry Johnson.
Well, again,
I don't even know how old I was in 2005,
but I kind of feel like
a Johnson is calling
my name, so I'm going to have to go
C. Derek Johnson.
Johnson is calling your name.
Whoa. I can tell you
C is going to be wrong.
Derek Johnson played the linebacker, so this won't be him.
I said D,
not C. Oh, D,
whatever. Larry Johnson.
No, I'm kidding. I told me. I said C. I said C.
I'm going to go
B. Jamal Charles.
Even though Priest Holmes
also went to Texas, I think
Jamal Charles
Fuck, you know what?
No, because pre-salms played for the chiefs in
the early 2000.
So I'm going to go Jamal.
I'm going to go Jamal and Hope.
Yeah, I'm going to go Jamal Charles B.
Yeah, I already.
All right.
Dude, some people just have these brains and you have this brain.
Well, I, like, I'm really good.
I'm really good at where people went to college
because I care about it.
So, question four.
I don't even know if I have a brain.
Oh my gosh.
You're really good at this.
No.
All right.
No, for real.
Okay.
Number four.
And Netflix's Happy Gilmore 2.
Travis Kelsey fires bad bunny from his restaurant after the,
after he offers BGA pro gopher, Jordan Spife.
Is that how you say it?
Speath.
Speath?
Well, I'm going to say Spife.
Kind of like I said, Jazeel.
Which item below?
A salad.
bread, C champagne, D. Lobster.
Okay, so I watched Ivy Gilmore, too,
but I was not locked in at all.
So I actually don't know the answer, but I'm going to go a salad.
I'm going to go.
This isn't count.
I was on medication when I watched this.
Hey, it's us to Jonas Brothers, and guess what?
We have some big news.
What's the news, name?
Huge news.
We created.
our own podcast called Hey Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to a...
We're the first people to do podcasts.
Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there.
But this one's extra special.
So how did we actually come up with a name Hey Jonas, guys?
I honestly don't remember.
I think it was on a call about what we should call it.
Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band.
before Jonas Brothers
was...
This is how you guys remember it going down?
Yes.
I have a very different memory of this.
We were talking about a thing,
a bit for the podcast
where people could call in and say,
Hey, Jonas.
And then I wrote down
on my little notepad,
Hey Jonas,
and offered it up as a potential title
for the podcast.
But thanks for remembering that, guys.

The French Open is one of the toughest tests in tennis.
And I know firsthand because I competed there myself.
I'm Renee Stubbs.
And on the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast, I'm Breast.
breaking down everything happening at Roland Garris, every match, every upset, and what it really
takes to win on Clay.
Jenchian win.
I mean, she went down in three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted.
She's an outsider to win the French for me.
And she likes Clay.
Listen, Lina Rabakina is arguably the best player in the world right now, and I actually can win on any
surface, because if she's serving, well, good luck.
Consider this your court-side seat to the French Open.

I do feel like it would be something simple.
You go salad.
I'll go bread.
All right, be bread.
I love.
Here we go.
What is the average price of a beer at Arrowhead Stadium?
Oh, wow.
A, 797, B, A55, C, 920.
D-1041.
So I did see this on Twitter the other day,
and it was a list in order of all the NFL
stadiums from least expensive to most expensive
beer prices.
And the chiefs were like very moderate,
but I'm trying to remember what the moderate was.
I kind of, it's either B or C though.
I'm going to go B then.
I was going to go B, so then I'll go
S.
Well, we could just go, we could both be right.
You want to go B together?
Yeah. Let's do that. Let's be together. 855.
Fuck me. Oh.
All right.
Here we go.
In the early 2000s, Dante Hall nicknamed the human joystick for his profound kick return play,
spent one season in the NFL, Europe before returning to Kansas City.
Which team did he play for? A, the Amsterdam Emeralds.
I do you know this is a thing
B the Hamburg sea devils
C the Scottish Claymores
or D the Frankfurt Sausage
Uh wow
Is this a fake?
Is this a fake question?
D's got to be fake
The Frankfurt sausages
But is there even an NFL Europe?
Yeah, we have a lot of dudes who play there
It's just like kind of you don't want to give up
the dream.
So you just go to Europe and get your housing paid for it and play football all over Europe.
There's no way that there's a team called the sausages.
I'm going to go Amsterdam Admirals.
And that just feels right to me.
What the fuck?
Are you guys sure this is real?
Is our producer messing with us?
Okay, well, I guess I'll go.
I'll go to Sea Devils.
The Scottish Claymore's, damn, it's beautiful.
Okay, last one, and I'm getting my ask kit.
15 years ago, Patrick Mahomes appeared in the Junior League Baseball World Series Championship game,
now known at the Little League World Series on ESPN,
representing Tyler, Texas.
He recorded the game's first RBI.
What team did he play against?
A, Soul Korea.
B, Toronto, Canada.
C, Taipei, Taiwan, and D, San Juan, Puerto Rico.
Um, dude, you know what?
They love baseball in Korea.
Not that they don't in Puerto Rico, but they love baseball in Korea.
I'm going to lock in Seoul, South Korea.
Somewhere I like to go on vacation soon, so I'm going to go Puerto Rico.
Wow.
Fun.
I don't even know what our final score was.
I know I had one.
I think I had two.
Three to one.
I'm number one, baby.
Hey, let's go play Flipcup two rounds to see if I can catch up.
Perfect.
Good call back.
With that, I think we hop right into our new segment called Tell Me Something.
And we set up a voicemail for people just like ask a shit.
And it's a 573 area code number, which is dope.
And I think we're just going to answer some questions from people who called us.
I hope it's not my mom.
Is it her just saying she loves us and hopes we're having a good day?
Or it's your mom while she's delivering Lindsay's baby and like everything that goes into play with that.
She's dilated.
Just on voicemail.
There we go.
My name is Elizabeth.
And I'm from Missouri.
And I have a question and a challenge for Sophie.
My question is, who is really?
favorite player to guard in the league.
And my challenge is I challenge you to a game of horse.
Okay, Elizabeth.
Okay, Lizzie.
She sounds like that more of course.
No, it kind of makes me nervous.
I would think, when I just think of just people who
I just feel hopeless against, I would have to say,
John Quill Jones from New York.
She's just so strong and tall and just good.
So I'm going to have to go there because I just kind of get,
put in that position as like a small four to maybe sometimes guard her and it's just never good.
And then a game of force girl, I'm so down.
I, you sound confident.
I like that.
It kind of makes me nervous.
What would be your first shot?
Are you going to go trick shot or are you just going to go like left-handed layup?
You keep it simple.
Do you want to know something?
I beat so many people off layups.
And if you do them enough, people will miss.
Right hand.
They're strong hand too.
So like I'll do some jumpers, I'll do threes.
I might do a couple trick shots,
but when it comes down to their last letter,
I stick with layups because I get in their head so much
and they miss on layups,
on their last letter every time.
It's an incredibly interesting take, but that's good.
I think I'm psycho.
I like to mentally break people down.
That's awesome.
That's killer instinct.
Maybe that's why I've never kept a boyfriend.
I would do granny shots,
and behind the back.
All right, here we go.
This is from John.
You ready?
Mm-hmm.
Hey, guys, John here.
Hey, we also wanted to see what she thought about
the upcoming game between Missouri and Kansas
for the first time in a long time.
And Sophie, hang in there, girl,
for all you girls over there.
Do you guys?
Fuck yeah, John.
I'm Mr. Brightson.
What are you?
God, I love that shit.
I'll give you the floor.
I'll give you the floor.
If my knee was good, I'd be jumping around this freaking apartment right now.
I'm so pumped for the border war.
God, I hate Kansas.
I hate them, I hate them.
But inject Mr. Brightside into my damn veins.
Oh, my God, I'm so hype.
So, the Mizzou, KU, for everyone who doesn't know, who's like not from Missouri,
Missouri and Kansas hate each other.
It was the best rivalry game.
I've ever seen growing up, football and basketball, all sports, honestly.
There's like crazy, crazy civil war ties that we like don't have to get into, but there has
been hatred between both states for the longest time.
Even the team's mascots go back to historical like little militias in Lawrence and in
Columbia. I'll say, unfortunately, Missouri was on the wrong side of history when the Civil
War issues were unfolding. I think it was like the 1850s, 1860s potentially, but regardless,
the hate is there growing up. I think I was in, I was either in seventh grade or eighth grade.
the Missou is number four,
KU is number two,
both,
I think had like one loss.
They played the game at Arrowhead.
It was,
speaking of Chase Daniel,
that was his team,
Chase Daniel,
Jeremy Macklin,
Sean Witherspoon,
all those dudes.
So good.
Gosh,
we were so bad.
But it's a,
it's a beautiful game.
I think the,
the saddest part
about all the new conferences are,
like we've lost so many games like that.
And I don't believe that the game even lost itself.
Dude, but I'm so glad they're bringing it back because at the end of day,
it just brings back like just good memories for everyone.
Memories.
You know what I mean?
And it just like it's the continued tradition.
And like I just watched it 30 for 30 literally yesterday on Catholics versus convicts,
the Ohio or Notre Dame versus Miami.
Yeah.
Have you heard about that rivalry?
Yeah.
that was um because Notre Dame's never been in a conference that one just like
happened on its own like it's kind of dope yeah but I I watched the whole 30 for 30 and it was
awesome and now like I'm so invested that they brought that one back like I love a good border
war and they always get out of hand and I get that but like on both sides like yeah you got
to kind of get them up but like I will I I hate Kansas like I and I Kayla and Shayla remember
they went to our high school they love played there and
and my cousin goes there.
So, like, I have people that I love there.
And, like, if it's not really, like, basketball or football,
or I guess if we're always playing, I will always hate Kansas.
But then, like, I don't really hate Kansas.
You know what I mean?
Lawrence is a great.
Lawrence is a very cute town, too.
But sports-wise, and I've been detached from the University of Missouri sports for a while,
but I will say I was raised to hate Kansas.
Both my parents, all my family went to Missouri.
They hate Kansas.
Everyone where I grew up hates Kansas, it would be a disservice to not care about this game on Saturday.
And so with that, I will say, M-I-Z.
You better, because I'll kill you.
I'll be having to do a single, a solo podcast for the rest of my life because you're good.
Did you guys play them in college?
Nope.
They wouldn't let us do it because they were too scared to play us.
They brought back the men's game, but they wouldn't.
wouldn't, the women didn't play each other for some reason.
Oh my God.
I would have loved every second to that.
But I, I really, like, I, our family hates Kansas so much that our aunt used to live up there for work.
And we would never, we wouldn't pay for gas.
Like, we'd always wait to get on the Missouri side to like buy food, gas, all of it.
Like, we try to spend at least a minute of money on that Kansas side.
I remember when I was a kid that the, like, drunk college kids had shirts that said Kansas
sucks on the front and in the back said and swallows.
And I remember asking my parents, I go, what does that mean?
And my parents were like, uh, you'll figure it out one day.
And I was like, oh, okay.
But I visually remember those shirts that said that and like not understanding the
joke and begging my parents to tell me what those shirts meant.
And they would figure them.
We still have all those T-shirts from when we were little.
And like Kansas City or Kansas, oh, first of all, I wanted those out there for
people who are hearing me shit on Kansas and they're like, but you're a cheese fan.
Chiefs are in Missouri.
God, if you don't know that and you're listening to this, just exit.
Kansas City is in Missouri.
We don't need your view if you don't know that.
So, but I remember like they used to have like a really, really kind of like bigger coach.
I don't know if you remember.
Like we would have been like.
Mangino was his name.
Yep.
Yep.
And like the amount of shirts that were like frying him and everything.
Oh my God.
and just like, oh, there's just some really good shirts made from the border war.
But yeah, but Kansas.
Let me also, for people who are listening, not from Missouri.
Missouri borders Kansas to Kansas's east, to Kansas is to Missouri's west.
So it's a very easy drive.
There's a big city right in between the two towns, Kansas City, Missouri.
So there's a lot of like overlap.
Kansas City is also a big city.
There's high schools on the Kansas side, high schools on the Missouri side.
Like we know a bunch of people from Kansas.
The rivalry is like, it's so historic and you have to choose a side.
Because even if you didn't go to Missouri or KU, like you have family that went to either.
You have friends that went to both like either.
And it is a huge deal.
And it's just, this is why sports are good.
It's schools to hate each other.
And it's going to be beautiful.
It's in Columbia.
Yeah.
Our little cousin is now on the Missouri football team, but his older brother goes to KU.
and so I'm like
like who are you choosing?
Are you going to go with family
or are you going to go with
your school?
It's going to be interesting.
I'm fucking mad for it.
But all right,
do you have another question?
I don't know.
That might be it.
Oh yeah,
we got one more.
All right.
Here we go.
I also forgot to mention
Montana State played Oregon on Saturday.
We lost,
but it's okay.
Door rush this weekend,
guys lock in.
All right, here we go.
Last question of the day.
Lock it in.
Sovian West, West and Sophie, you wonderful people,
you ridge runners from Missouri.
I need some love advice.
I met a woman at a conference for work recently.
Pause, it's going to be about dating.
Let's go.
This is going to be so awesome.
He gets to give dating advice.
Does he know who he's talking to?
I have started.
Ridge runners from Missouri.
I need some love advice.
I met a woman at a conference for work recently.
that happened to be targeted at churches.
She works at one of those churches.
I do not.
We started going out and have been hooking up since by Digger.
I think she thinks me.
She lives out of state and is flying in this weekend for Labor Day.
How dumb is this?
Could we keep enjoying it?
And see what you're in?
Love you guys.
You're doing a great podcast.
Take care.
First off, you probably couldn't have called two worse people, I guess, for this advice.
we're both going to tell you keep hooking up
no I was going to say West is going to say
definitely keep hooking up but talk to other girls on the side
no you said you're both having fun
she's flying in and you guys like each other
there's something really hot about
about people who work together
because it's a little taboo it's kind of frowned upon
should you tell HR should you not
should we keep it a secret from our co-workers
and you guys met at a conference also hot.
Keep doing it and see what happens.
As long as you're,
just don't start lying.
If someone higher up says,
hey,
she's got a twinkle in her eye when she's around you,
we can all see it.
Just don't lie about it.
Keep it 100 and have some fun,
especially if you guys have more conferences.
What if you guys have a conference in,
I don't know,
maybe Tampa in a few months?
You guys can go do a little boat day,
drink some marg.
you are running with this.
There's no way.
Weiss doesn't even put this much effort into his dates.
And he's already planning a fucking Tampa trip for you guys.
This is why you shouldn't ask us.
The trips are being planned for them.
That's kind of what I'm saying.
Like it's these conferences.
That's fun.
Wait.
So you have two thumbs up for me.
My mind goes, like conferences when people meet up,
it always makes me nervous.
I feel like there's always like, are they dating?
someone back home, are they actually married?
That's good.
Like that?
Dude, you just went on a fucking five-minute spiel,
not even thinking about that.
No.
No, but I mean, that's a question
you have to ask yourself, but if they're both
behaving correctly, then that question's answer.
Like, if they're both single,
yeah.
Yeah, I think, like, yeah, like, see, it's, yeah,
that's fun.
Like, see, dry it out.
You're like, you could maybe be married one day,
but...
I just, commenters make me nervous.
I feel like a lot of people cheat at conferences,
and I'm not for cheaters.
Like, yeah, it's black and white for me.
But I think if you're not, go have fun.
Why would you not?
Like, continue to, if you guys enjoy each other
and all that time stuff,
that you guys bring each other good joy in your life,
then continue it.
Why not?
I know an Applebee's haste to see y'all coming.
If the conferences are in the Midwest,
ooh.
Ooh.
Or Chili's, or Chili's, even?
Dude, apple bees and chili sounds so good.
Dude, chilies?
Damn, I'm hungry.
A triple dipper?
Oh.
That sounds so good.
I like a cheese pole and mozzarella sick right now.
Dude.
And like a beer and like a frosty mug.
You know what?
I think right now a good, a good margarita has been sounding so good to me.
But I also like a beach and a boat also sounds.
sounds good.
But like...
Oh, do you try to knock out all three?
Margarita with a
mozzarella stick from Chili's?
Fuck.
I'm down.
Fuck, that was fun.
Oh, my God.
Should we join them if they go to Tampa and they go on a phone?
He didn't leave his name,
but DM us and say that the next time you guys are getting dinner,
which again, probably at Chili's in like a Midwest town,
but if it is Tampa, we'll come to you.
Just let us know.
Unless you're married.
then we're against it
Wait
What is it
Like you have a thruple
What is it for?
Oh I guess it just be a double-
What do you mean?
Yeah
Yeah
Because there be four of us
Oh my God
Yeah
I would not have this for dating in life
Our longest recording ever
Um
Are you officially
Are you officially off pain meds
Or are you easing off them as we speak?
No, I'm officially all
I debated one last time maybe doing a lax div again.
I think you should.
Really get me out.
I don't think so, but I just want to end this podcast that I enjoy a lot of things in life.
And I love a lot of things.
I'm not really a hater.
Like, I don't take a lot of things too seriously.
But I absolutely fucking hate Kansas.
Boom.
See ya.
