This is the Josh and his show. Well, howdy, everybody, and welcome in. It's Josh and Jilly and, of course, the legendary Luther Van Dam,
who, if you're watching on Twitch, you see laying right there on his couch.
It was a nice day for the most part here in Nashville today, but...
Well, it's the last day that's under 95 for, like, the next two weeks.
So it's going to be really fucking nasty for the next two weeks.
And not a pity party because I believe Houston was like 110 today with the heat index.
It's even going to get to the 90s in Detroit where I was the last couple days.
And when I woke up on Saturday, I, by the way, had a wonderful time in Detroit.
I got in Thursday.
The program director took me out to have some beers and some dinner with some of the people from the station.
It was great.
Loved it.
And the weather was kind of overcast.
It was cool and breezy, and it was great.
Boy, overcast is the best day.
It is.
And then we end up, then the next day I have to get up.
I go to the radio station and do some stuff.
Have an awesome lunch with their salespeople, which I felt very welcomed.
It was a great rapport I had with everybody.
We're shooting the shit.
We're having a good time, everything. Then go to the ball game Friday. And well, actually we had an appearance
after that at a brewery, a bunch of the sales people showed up, a bunch of listeners showed up.
Dude, there were people in Detroit and I've been on for two months there. People showing up,
Hey, where's battle? Where's Jilly? Like Jilly's not even on in Detroit, but they're like, where's
Jilly? Where's Luther? I'm like, I'm having to kind of lie. Like, they're at home here in Detroit.
But it was awesome.
And then we go to the ballgame Friday.
We get there.
Me and my boss go to the Tigers game where I drink the beer out of the giant bat, which was wonderful.
I mean, I was pretty much drunk the whole time I was in Detroit.
And we go to the game, and it just starts pouring on us when we get into the stadium. But neither one of us want to do that thing where one of us says maybe we should get up because they were still
playing they were playing through the rain so we're both sitting there and i'm like so which
one of us wants to make this move huh which one wants to do it and then eventually they they bring
the game into a delay and we're like you want to get up so they had a cool uh bar area in this
ballpark in detroit we drink some more beers. We watch most of the game.
It was like a 10-0 game, so we left in like the eighth.
You got to see a Springer Dinger.
Did.
The second we sat down, there were three consecutive home runs from Toronto.
And then he takes me back to the hotel.
Nice seeing you.
I get up the next morning at like 7, catch an Uber, which, by the way,
Ubers were like 50 bucks, two of them from the airport to my hotel i get in go to the airport at like then my flight takes off at eight something detroit time so 750
here by like nine o'clock here i'm back in nashville having to go do a remote at a gun place
i felt almost important i felt almost i was like jet setting like sorry guys i gotta run
i'm very important and i'm very busy right now and I got things to do
but it was a great time in Detroit they're awesome I like I felt welcomed which I very rarely feel in
places but the people at the radio station were awesome it was great had a lot of fun drank a lot
of beer met some really nice people it was a fun time and now here we are on this Sunday doing a
pod for you guys and we're glad you're with us.
Well, I drank the remainder of our Boda box while you were gone.
I hope it was great.
Yep.
I drank Boda box and watched a lot of Vanderpump Rules.
Well, that's good.
And dealt with Luther, who was not okay with you not being here.
I know.
He's a nut bar, though.
Did not sleep in the bed with me, barked the whole first night.
He is a psycho.
So you look at him here, and you're like,
there's no way that guy buried in all those cardinals blankets is a psycho he is he is a nutty bar
so uh i got a question here from roddy richards had you gotten the 97.5 job do you think you
would have been casted in hustle instead of anthony gargano no uh let me start there with
with that movie really not good now we watched it last night in its entirety and it was
not good no like here's the reality right i think two hours and not much happened no here's what i
think i think philly people liked it because it was about philly and i think philly people are
easy in that way like hey it's smooth like they probably think the garbage picking field goal
kicking philadelphia phenomenon's a good movie because it is, but they probably like it because
it's in Philadelphia or Rocky because it's in Philadelphia or, or, or invincible because about
Philly. And I get that, right? I would understand that it's about your city and your team. So it
just makes it easier to like, well, it was cool. The only part that's cool for us was because the
training scenes are like, he's running up the Hill and the stairs was literally around the
corner from where we used to live. So that was cool. And I understand how it's cool to like see places from your city in a movie, but the
movie itself sucked.
It was slow.
It was basically the same plot as a whole line of movies that were about scouts for
pro teams going to other places and, and trying to find talented players.
There's a movie called talent for the game with Edward James, almost basically the same
concept, the scout with Brendan Frazier and Albert Brooks, same fucking thing.
That one movie where Jon Hamm gets the Indian kid to come pitch, same fucking thing. It's just,
oh, the guy is a scout and everybody doubts the player he's bringing back, but then the player
is fucking great. It was a generic movie. It just happened to take place in Philadelphia
and it was lazy because it just had a happened to take place in Philadelphia and it was lazy
because it just had a bunch
of famous people in it,
like athletes.
Like, one of the reviews
I read for the movie,
like in the movie,
I didn't even read this.
It was in the trailer.
And in the trailer for the movie,
like usually it says like
a nonstop thrill ride
or whatever.
One of the three quotes
from a critic
they put in the trailer
for this was,
it's a who's who
of NBA stars.
Well, that doesn't make a fucking movie good.
So is Uncle Drew.
Yeah, so is it.
So, like, I'm just fascinated.
And then someone comes at me on Facebook.
They're like, you're just a Philly hater.
I don't think hating this piece of shit movie has anything to do with Philadelphia.
Stop taking so much pride in this shitty movie.
It's not about you.
The only part we liked about it was seeing the places in Philly
that we lived. Correct. And if I hated movies
because they were based in Philly, I wouldn't obsess
over Rocky, which I've loved since I was a kid.
Or Invincible, which I love.
But like, this movie fucking
sucked. It was boring.
It was long.
It was like science fiction. Like, who believes
that Queen Latifah isn't a lesbian?
Nobody buys that.
And if she wasn't a lesbian,
would she really fuck Adam Sandler?
Probably not.
There's so much about it that's unrealistic.
That people think that Beaubon was worth visiting
and wherever the fuck the movie started.
It's sci-fi.
It's all it is.
It is complete sci-fi.
And I just didn't think it was a good movie.
I thought it was boring and slow.
Like, that movie did not need to be two hours long.
The guy was hot, though.
Good for him.
That's great.
I was kind of dozing in and out of that because I was, I really made a mistake and took one
of the gummies in there.
Also, also the other unrealistic part, why was Anthony Gargano, like, on some sort of,
like, R&B station?
Yeah.
Oh, that's a good point, Jilly.
So the first time Gargano is in there, you hear, like, some sort of like R&B station. Yeah oh that's good point Jilly. So the first
time Gargano is in there you hear like some urban song playing like you know like a slow jam
and then Gargano breaks in with breaking news. Hey this is Anthony Gargano to cuz. And then like
they announced that the owner of the team just died. I'm like what fucking radio station that's
playing R&B music has the cuz on it? And he's in there multiple times.
It's funny.
He's got, like, 10 jobs, right?
Yeah, but he's, like, a TV guy.
He's a TV guy.
He's a radio guy.
And he's on the street, like, asking, like, questions.
And this isn't even a knock on him.
Like, whatever.
I wouldn't say no to being in the movie either.
But, like, there's so much about it that was just stupid.
And I think what's happening is you get all these Philly people, and they see that it's a movie that take place that takes place in philly and they're like you know what it's fucking great because it takes
place in philly it was a piece of shit was the morals like never quit man you know what the
problem i have with this is like basically if you put adam sandler in a drama these critics just
jizz over it like what was that one he was in that gems was pretty good it was but all you gotta do
is put adam sandler in a drama and they're like boy that's good shit that is Like what was that one he was in? Well Uncut Gems was pretty good. It was but all you gotta do is put Adam Sandler in a drama
and they're like boy that's good shit
that is awesome. Like what was the one that the
Punch Drunk Love or
Spanglish. You just put him in some
movie that's sort of a drama and they're like
Adam Sandler knocks it out of the park with
this shit. But the thing is like do you think if like
McDougal realized that LeBron
like his company produced that movie that they would
hate it? That should be a topic on the Cuz Show.
Would you see a movie that was about Philly if LeBron produced it about?
Would you?
Because I mean, they won't eat chips that have Anthony Davis on the fucking bag.
Why would they go see a movie that's got, you know, that's produced by LeBron?
But like, like, again, this has nothing to do with Philly.
Like, I don't hate movies because they take place in Philly
No we actually watched it because it was in Philly
Yeah we wanted to see all the places
And you mentioned it the hill that he's running up in that movie
He's running up that hill
That's our hill
That shot took place less than half a mile from our house
It was a one minute drive
From that place to our old house on Fleming Street
Yeah
So that was kind of cool.
But like the idea that this movie was good,
it wasn't.
And I'm so sick of fucking movie critics.
Like,
I just think movie critics see what,
like they're afraid to write negative reviews about movies unless it's like an
anti-Trump movie or like some kid rock did.
Then they'll write a negative review.
Otherwise every movie is like a nine out of 10.
Like that,
like that one year that I was so excited. well, lady Ghostbusters gets blown and it's a piece of shit. The Lady Superbad
gets blown. It was a piece of shit. The John Cena Superbad was blown and it was a piece of shit.
Maybe I've lost my mind. Maybe I have no idea what's good anymore, but none of this shit is
good. The Adam Sandler movie sucked and it had nothing to do with the fact that it takes place in Philly or I'm anti-Philly or whatever.
It fucking sucked.
And I'm just baffled by people.
Oh, boy.
The mountains have been blue all afternoon, baby.
I got a whole cooler of them, and I'm ready to go tonight.
Trevor says, Josh, I'm with you.
Thank you.
It's like when Robin Williams has a beard.
You know he's going to give a stern performance.
Good point, Joe.
Anytime Robin Williams has a beard and he's in a serious movie,
you're like, oh, look, it's Jacob the Liar.
Boy, what a movie.
Oh, shit.
I didn't go into it thinking it was going to be awful or wanting to hate it.
I thought it would be fine.
It was just really not good.
But it just, it was like, but the thing is, it wasn't even like watchable not good.
You know what I'm saying?
Like some movies are not good, but they're funny.
And you're like, yeah, you can tell that this movie kind of sucked, but at least you laughed
a little bit.
Or at least you can make fun of it a little bit.
This was so predictable and so slow.
But it was, it was boring.
Yeah, it was very boring.
And slow and tiresome.
And you're watching it
and you're like, what is happening in this fucking
movie?
Like, why is this movie happening?
And you know it's a bad movie when at the end
they're starring and it's like all the NBA players
who were in it for like, Luca said
one line on a FaceTime. Honestly, I don't even
remember Luca being in it.
Yeah, and it's like, it was when the guy was going
viral. Oh, like honestly, I dozed in parts, obviously, and it's like, it was when the guy was going viral. Oh.
Like, honestly, I dozed in parts, obviously. And it's like starring Luca Donchik.
He was in it for.3 seconds on a video call.
That's how you know it's a sad movie,
when you have to claim that all these players were in it,
when literally most of them were in it for like.5 seconds.
I watched, there were parts where I fell asleep, admittedly.
Because the Delta 8 gummies mixed with the alcohol alcohol mixed with the fact that I was tired.
I just kind of like would doze off.
So there were parts I may have missed, but I don't feel like I missed anything important enough that would have changed it from a mediocre movie to a great movie or to a decent movie.
It just sucked.
Boy.
So yeah, I took like basically one Delta-8 gummy last night. The problem I have with the Delta-8 gummies is that like they make me feel tired the whole
next day.
So like I couldn't do one of those tonight.
Like I bet you there are people in here that are like, Josh, what if you took like two
Delta-8 gummies so we could see like what it's like when you're on these things?
I can't do that because I have to get up at four in the morning to go to work tomorrow.
So that would be kind of troublesome if I did that.
Like, I would be a zombie.
But all the alcohol, that's fine.
Dude, alcohol, I can live through that shit.
Yep, you'll pop right up.
If I take these Delta 8 gummies, if I do that, I am going to be, like, tired as shit.
Like, I feel like today we woke up at, like, 10 and I felt like a zombie.
It's like when you drink too much NyQuil.
That's not true.
We woke up at 8.
Well, we woke up at 8, but we laid in bed for two hours.
Yeah.
Because I couldn't get up.
I couldn't function.
Like, I take it, and it's like drinking too much NyQuil, basically, that same feeling you get.
Trevor's the same way with the Delta 8 gummies.
There was one moment two weeks ago that I felt sort of high and kind of into it,
and it was like I finished off two gummies not at the same time but I
finished off you know two of them and then for a brief moment in time I felt like I was flying
very loopy yep but like last night I took one like a whole one not even by the halves I took
a whole one I felt nothing but then eventually I just felt kind of tired now in Detroit apparently
you can get the real gummies there I did not because the hotel I was staying in wasn't near anything.
We were out in the middle of fucking nowhere where the radio station was.
But Detroit was a fun time.
I enjoyed it.
Ballpark seems nice.
We do have your giant plastic bat you brought home.
I did.
I didn't realize that more ballparks didn't have giant plastic bats for the beer.
I've never seen that.
I thought it was awesome.
Everybody commented, hey, Phillies, why don't you get these?
Hey, Astros, why don't you get these?
You sent me that picture, and I was like, is that beer in that?
Like, what is this?
I didn't know what it was.
It was.
Steve from the 713 with 25.
That starts us off.
Oh, God.
Are we doing shots tonight?
Well, we have options, okay?
We have one of the options.
Well, I'm fine with doing shots, right?
So we're 75 away.
Let me get my tally going.
If M.W. Solgrove is in here, he can also do math like last Sunday.
He liked that.
Yeah.
But we have obviously shots to do for every 100.
Yeah.
I also bought some fantastic spicy pickles.
And if you remember during the Rona show, you hate pickles.
I'm not eating pickles.
I think it was every time that you brought up Philly you had to eat a pickle.
I think it was 790.
Or 790.
Yeah.
So we can either play that game
or if someone reaches 100
they can choose
if we should do shots
or you should eat a pickle.
We also have dog treats again.
Oh, come on.
I'm not eating dog treats.
But these are like human ingredients.
It's chicken jerky.
What are you doing?
Why are you offering me to eat fucking dog treats?
Chicken jerky or a chicken chip.
The chicken chip is tenderloin, chicken tenderloin.
The chicken jerky is literally like chicken and some sort of vegetable.
Why would I?
Do I eat the entire?
This is bullshit.
A bite of one.
This is bullshit.
So those are a lot of options of all the things we can eat.
But shouldn't they be different?
Shouldn't it be more than like eating a dog treat?
Shouldn't that be more than like eating a dog treat? Shouldn't that be more
donos than a fucking shot? Well, I don't
know because I mean if we say 200 then someone might just say
do two shots.
This is bullshit, Jilly.
Bullshit. So I'm just saying whoever gets to
100 can choose. And I just got a text from a
friend who's watching. It says, well, why don't you
just, why don't you add something to do
some Delta 8? I told you
I'm not doing any fucking Delta 8 gummies tonight.
If I do those, I will not wake up in the morning.
I will be a zombie.
And I have a radio show in two big cities to do tomorrow morning.
Now, for the Delta 8, that would have to be an extreme number there.
Like, it can't just be $100.
But also, like, see, I don't think you guys want to do Delta 8 because then you're going to fall asleep.
And then we're not going to be on here very long.
Delta 8 really does that to you, Asht we're not going to be on here very long. Delta 8 really does that
to you, Ashtray. It just makes me
tired. It makes me kind of tired. But I stayed
up for a while last night.
But the Delta 8,
the way I felt the next morning
made me feel... It was like NyQuil,
as I told you. I don't really get high from it or
anything. I just feel like I drank
a lot of fucking NyQuil. And the pickles,
frijoles are pickle
chips so they're the little circles but they're sweet and spicy and they're really good and i
love pickles and josh hates pickles yeah um so yeah that's the option for tonight shots
pickle chip how much do i have to eat of the pickle a whole pickle it's a little it's a little
circle i hate pickles so why do i why jilly why like it was so much simpler when it was just hey
we'll do a shot because you said that like when p PK and DK do live shows, they do wacky shit.
So I found wacky shit in the form of human edible dog treats and spicy pickles and shots.
Trevor keeps asking me for bar recs in Chicago.
Honest to God, I don't go out in Chicago.
Whenever we go to Chicago, we stay at Bobbo's house,
and that is where we stay. That is it.
I can't tell you the last bar that I went to
in Chicago. I don't even know what's open.
All I can tell you is for pizza, go to the South Side
and go to Vito and Nick's and get a
picture of old style.
That would be my recommendation.
Trey says, any bar recs in Dallas? No.
The only bars we've gone to in Dallas
is Hooters.
And that place right by the arena.
That's about it. That was like a Mexican place, right?
Or something next to the arena?
No, it was something.
Yeah, Trevor, I would just go to Vito and Nick's
get some
thin crust pizza and a pitcher of old style.
Pickles, bitch, just donated
$100. Oh, well, I guess that means
a pickle we've already
that means also that the 25 carries over so we're still just 75 away from the next challenge oh
shit let me go get the pickles this is bullshit i didn't ask for this i planned on coming on here
tonight telling you all the shit i've learned from john taffer's first book don't bullshit yourself
crush the excuses that are holding you back i've read half of it because my flights were very short,
but I've read a lot of very good stuff that I think I can tell you guys about and I can spread
my wisdom. But now you guys got me doing fucking pickles here. It's, I mean, we've been at this for
15 minutes. You've already got me eating pickles. Oh, what is, what is this shit? Deliciousness.
Oh, come on. What the fuck is Wickels Pickles?
They're really good.
I don't want to eat this shit.
Well, we have Pickles Bitch tipping $100, so you will be eating a pickle.
This is bullshit.
This is absolutely bullshit.
And I will remind the chat that every hundred you get to choose dog
treat or a shot or
now that he's already eaten the pickles, that's off the table.
This is absolute horse shit.
Make sure you get a big one too.
Oh Christ. And there's like
peppers and shit in here? They're spicy.
They're good.
This is a bullshit start to this night.
This is an absolute bullshit start.
Harold says he's Pickles Bitch.
Thanks, Harold.
Thanks, Harold.
Oh, man.
Like, I hate pickles so much.
They're gross.
Smell them.
Get a big whiff of that.
Yep, get a big one. This is fucking gross. gross oh it's dripping on my pants
oh shit i have to eat the whole thing yeah this is absolute bullshit and you know this is bullshit
i didn't sign up for this i thought it was typical we do a hundred bucks for a shot now you're
offering me to eat fucking dog treats and fucking pickles what is this shit i didn't sign up for this. I thought it was typical. We do $100 for a shot. Now you're offering me to eat fucking dog treats
and fucking pickles? What is this shit?
I didn't sign up for this, you crazy
bitch. I go out of town for like two days
and you become a monster. To be fair, I mean, if we
do the dog treats, I would sample them too
to be fair, but pickles are delicious
to me, so that's not anything.
I bought the pickles
because I thought they were great.
Do a shot of the pickles.
Fuck you.
Fuck you.
That's another $100.
No, that's not just $100.
It's not just $100.
To drink out of this nasty-ass jar?
Oh, no, we'd pour it in a shot glass.
Oh, come on now.
Okay, so Trevor says that's $300 to to do a shot to drink out of the jar.
Yes, that is $300 to do a shot out of the jar.
Ain't nobody going to do that, and that's fine with me.
But what if we get $100, then $100, then $100, and then we do two shots, and then someone else's?
Whatever.
They ain't going to get to that point.
That's too convoluted.
All right, I'll eat this.
This is so fucking bad.
Oh, it's dripping on me.
God, it's going to make my underpants, because I'm sitting in my underpants.
It's going to make me smell like goddamn pickles.
Shut up and eat it.
You're like my dad.
My dad used to force me to eat.
He's like, Josh, you're going to love it.
Like, Dad, you know I don't like pickles.
So why would I eat this?
Do you think my opinion of pickles is going to change because of your one fucking pickle?
Okay, this is fucking terrible. And again, this isn't just a pickle. my opinion of pickles is going to change because of your one fucking pickle? Okay.
This is fucking terrible.
And again, this isn't just a pickle.
This is a wickle.
A spicy and sweet pickle.
This is bullshit.
Fuck all of you.
I genuinely don't want to do this.
Well, eat it already.
It's only going to get worse. What is that noise?
It's so gross.
It's so good.
I don't want it.
Eat it.
You have to swallow it.
Oh, it. Eat it. You have to swallow it. Oh, fuck.
It's so bad.
I can't swallow it Oh the juice is so bad
I don't want to swallow it
The more you hold it in your mouth
The worse it is
I finished it you you assholes.
Fuck all of you.
Oh, God, it's so gross.
Who likes this shit?
Me.
Oh, you're a monster.
It's a sweet and spicy pickle.
It's so good.
I don't want any more of that shit.
So good.
Oh, it's so gross.
So we've already done the pickle, so that still leaves the dog treats.
What are you doing?
No one.
I didn't sign up for this.
Like, what is this?
Oh, well, now we have dog treats.
What kind of fucking asshole am I?
I said I would do it, too.
I don't want to, but I would.
And, of course, there's always the option for a shot.
Oh, that's so gross.
We have tequila.
We have vodka.
Oh, shit.
Now my hands are all sticky and shit. Oh, God, that's so gross. We have tequila. We have vodka. Oh, shit.
Now my hands are all sticky and shit.
Oh, God, that's gross.
Also, pickles hydrate you, so they're good.
Oh, that's so nasty.
Oh.
I guess hating pickles is anti-Philly because, you know, the pickle juice game, right?
This guy hates Philly.
He doesn't like pickle juice.
What a fucking asshole.
He doesn't like the Adam Sandler movie, and he doesn't like fucking pickles.
What an asshole.
Oh, God, that is so gross.
Whew.
Whew.
So I see I like pickles, bitch.
The tip is no Delta 8.
Like, I've never taken two of those at the same time.
And, again, I know that it's not fucking pot. I get that. But there was one brief moment in time that I was sort of high off of that.
But you also didn't drink anything that day. That's true. So maybe the alcohol kind of,
you know, balances it out. I don't know. Oh, that's nasty. So anyway, don't bullshit yourself.
Crush the excuses that are holding you back by John Taffer.
I didn't get a chance to read walking with Petey cause I haven't even finished this. The flight was considerably shorter. Um, then, uh, then I thought it was like an hour each way.
So I read about a hundred plus pages of this 200 page book, but let me tell you something, man.
And this is like, I really feel like I've had a
breakthrough thanks to John Taffer. I need to get him on the pod. Be like, Hey John, I read your
book. Let's talk. He tweeted you back. He did because you know what? I've learned to embrace
solutions and not excuses from reading this book. But there's something in here that was really like
big to me. And like, it was basically like six different things, like six ways to, you know,
that people, you know, blame, like for instance, like to basically people blame fear for why they're
not successful or knowledge for why they're not successful or time for why they're not successful
or circumstances. That's as far as I've gotten. I'm in the middle of circumstances.
There's still ego and scarcity, but circumstances really stood out to me because I do make a lot of excuses
for circumstances and this is big. So one of the things is, and this was, and I found this very
interesting in the Taffer book. Okay. It was that like, basically I feel like I blame my
circumstances a lot. And I think a lot of people do but like let's look at 790 one of the key things that
old John Taffer said in this book was that that it's easy to blame your circumstances but like
let's look at people let's say you work in a toxic work environment which without a question
790 was right yep 790 was a toxic work environment but I made it worse because I couldn't just let it be that it was
toxic. It's very possible for shit to be toxic. I don't have to be toxic. I didn't have to do all
the shit I did. You probably added to the toxicity. I did. Well, I added to the toxicity because I had
to fight these people. They were toxic and I had to keep fighting the fact that they were toxic
instead of just saying, fuck these people. Like big picture, Adam Clanton's a nobody. This is as high as he's
going to go in the world. Michael Conner, this is as high as he's going to go in the world.
At least back then, I had golden opportunity to be the fucking guy. Multiple times I've had that
opportunity, but instead, just like in Philly with the cousin, all these assholes, I let the
circumstances play it out, and I played into the circumstances instead of
just saying, fuck it. I'm bigger than these people. I'm going to be bigger than these people.
I didn't do that. And what annoys me is people like Michael Berry would tell me that he would,
I used to bring me into a studio sometimes and he, me, him and Jim would shoot the shit.
And he'd be like, Josh, ultimately none of these other people are doing anything.
They're just who they are. Like this is the end game for them. This is, Hey, I'm making 50 grand a year to do a radio show in Houston. This is who they are.
They will never be bigger than this. You have potential to be bigger than them because you
are better than them, but you cannot get in the mud with them. But for whatever reason,
I get this fucking rush. I get this rush from jumping into this and fighting with these people because
for like, whether I have to prove them wrong or whatever, I have to get in the fucking mud with
them. And then it costs me guys like Adam Clanton are still going to be, you know, $50,000 a year
losers. But me, I had potential. I'm better than him. I'm better than Michael Connor, better than
anybody in Houston, in my opinion. Or in Philly.
I'm pretty fucking good at this shit.
But I fucked myself because I couldn't just sit there and leave it alone when these people were toxic.
And that's the problem.
I sat there and said, well, this is a toxic situation.
And I made it worse by fighting with them instead of saying, fuck them.
And that cost me multiple opportunities.
Thank you, John Taffer.
Thank you.
We've also reached $100.
Shit.
Boy.
Boy.
Okay, so.
So we're doing shots now?
That's what I believe Harold says.
Shit.
It's going to be a good day tomorrow.
Oh, God.
And what's going to happen, as usual, is that you will wake up just fine and dandy,
and I will be the one that is struggling.
The only way that I will not wake up and be just raring to go is if we do those gummies.
And I get Trey's point.
He goes, I'm talking like Delta eight, like it's LSD, dude. I'm not telling you that it's impacting me, but it
makes me tired. Like I feel like, like I feel groggy after I eat some of these gummies. Like,
so I wake up tired. That is the only way that I, and hopefully nobody puts in fucking money for
that. That is the only way that I think I'll wake up at four 20 in the morning and be like,
I can't get out of bed. Otherwise booze. I can wake up at 420 in the morning and be like, I can't get out of bed. Otherwise, booze, I can
wake up just fine. Let's go. I mean, it happened to me multiple
times when I was in Detroit the other day. I don't
know. Depends how many shots we end up doing
tonight. Which I
guess I have to go get one. What do you want?
It doesn't really matter. Just go
tequila. I don't know.
Oh.
Please put the pickle.
It's all pickle juice all over the table.
My God.
Nice haircut, Josh.
Thanks, Expreme Sam.
Thanks.
I find myself to be quite handsome.
Going back to the gym tomorrow, by the way.
Get my fat ass over the gym, ready to face the fucking world, baby.
Got to get back at it.
But I'd say this John Taffer book has made me feel nice.
I think you would all agree with that. That like, and you guys weren't on the inside, but I've told you enough
stories that you know that I fucked my... Oh, I guess we'll do this. Jelly loves this coconut
tequila from 1800. It wasn't from the year 1800. That'd be something. Yeah, we went back in time
and got us a good old 1800.
Josh, what's your workout playlist?
I don't have one because I'm at the mercy of what they play at the boxing gym,
which I'm fine with.
But if I did, me and Jim used to hit the elliptical and stuff.
Our old building in Houston had a gym, so he and I would work out before the show.
He'd get on the exercise stationary bike and watch episodes of like whatever show he was watching. And I had a mix that had like longer songs on it.
So I would go with, um, I would have like, can't stop loving you from a van Hagar.
I would have, honestly, I had the, uh, what's that fucking song? The Billy Joel song. Like
I'd liked long. So, Oh, the scenes from an Italian restaurant because it was
like seven minutes. I would just put a lot
of long songs on there so I knew that once I got
through three or four songs, my 35 minutes
on the elliptical was almost over.
Alright.
There's our first shot of the night. Maybe our last.
Hopefully our last. I don't fucking know. I've already
eaten pickles and everything.
Oh, shit. I don't like that nearly as much as you do. I love coconut, pickles and everything. Oh, shit.
I don't like that nearly as much as you do.
I love coconut, but my God.
And I don't really like coconut.
Isn't that funny?
You will lose more weight if you play Boosie while working out.
Boosie main.
Ooh, that burns.
It burns very much so.
Also, I'm drinking, I haven't talked about this, these Lover Boys,
which are kind of my favorite things now.
This is probably the one alcohol that I can chug.
You've been handling it pretty good.
Yeah.
They're 4.2, Sparkling Hard Tea.
And this is the lemon one, kissed with ginger.
There's a hibiscus one, too, I think, kissed with lime.
And then the other one I like is the white peach something.
Yeah.
I don't know.
They're all really good.
There's an orange one, too, but I've been scared off of, like, orange alcohol.
Yeah.
Because of that one time.
Now, how long ago was that?
Like, five years?
Yeah.
When I got that big Bud Light orange at the Astros game.
You did.
It was horrible.
Worst heartburn I've ever had in my life.
Yeah.
Now.
And ever since then, anything orange flavor, like, even Blue Moon, I'm kind of like, whatever on.
Yeah. anything orange flavor like even blue moon i don't i'm kind of like whatever on yeah and even
orange deep eddie which i used to love like everything orange now is kind of fucked so
apparently trey's birthday is coming up says you're gonna call me for my birthday birthday's
tomorrow your birthday's tomorrow trey in a few hours well shit maybe we're gonna have to call
you i haven't set up all of our our facetime and stuff maybe we will we're going to have to call
you think my mom's awake i kind of want to to get a review of the wrestling match she went to.
Oh, it's early enough.
She probably is.
Let me see if she'll answer.
She was just sending me pictures of Paul Heyman earlier.
Is she turned on by Paul Heyman?
No, but she thinks he's really good.
Well, he is good.
All right, so guys, should I try to call my mom
and get a review of the wrestling match?
Oh, Trevor's birthday was last Monday.
He just turned 30. Well, congratulations birthday was last monday he just turned
30 well congratulations rock forever 21 but just turned 30 should we call my mom and get a review
of the wrestling matches she had great seats dude she like my sister sent me a picture and they were
right there man they were like right by the entrance like she said she had a blast i wish
she could have got to meet him, but I know maybe not.
Maybe if she would come to town for the,
uh,
summer slam,
but I don't know.
Like battle talks,
a big fucking game.
Like I can get us tickets to summer slam.
I'm still questioning that.
I think he can.
I don't know.
I'm calling,
I'm calling him on that.
Cause we rented a fucking hotel in downtown Nashville for summer slam.
And he's like,
yep,
I'm going to get us some tickets.
I'm I question that.
Just like I question his shooting ability because I beat him in that shooting contest
yesterday because I'm a fucking savage.
Ratchet, moody, nasty.
Okay, let's see here.
So people are saying call mom.
I'll give her a shot.
Let me find mom in here.
Okay, let me see if she'll answer.
All right, we're calling.
Throwing those donuts for more shots to get
Josh hungover on a Monday and probably
me. Oh, that's really loud.
I gotta hear it though. Put your
headphones on like a normal human.
Mom might
be asleep. It's 630.
She
sleeps early. I don't know. your car oh see see what it is she probably
knows that you're on twitch because she watches i don't know that she's watching she watches i
don't know she listens every podcast i don't know she knows everything that we do i don't know
but i was surprised to find out all the shit my mom did know because she doesn't have a facebook
yet like she would know shit solely based on what was on Facebook.
But then it occurred to me that Don, her husband, is on Facebook, and he probably sees everything.
So mom will send messages to you, and she's like, is Josh going to get fired?
He said he was going to get fired on Facebook.
Like, no, it's just for show, Tammy.
It's just for show.
I was like, what's Josh doing in Detroit?
Why is he in Detroit?
Did she? Yeah. I believe that. because I'm on the radio in Detroit now they seem to like me there but I'll
tell you guys this this is a little secret of the way the radio world works now they don't like me
to go on the radio in Detroit and let people know that I'm in Nashville right well no shit well no
I get that but like no but my point is that some people are just syndicated and you know that they're not
in that city like people know the breakfast club is not in toledo it's in new york they know that
but the way i'm doing this show is it's a unique show for detroit so they're like hey don't mention
nashville shit or whatever make it sound like you're in detroit because it's not as we discussed
on here it's not syndicated like everyone was, oh, wow, congrats on your syndication.
It's not syndication.
It is a unique custom show for Detroit.
But it's actually doing well.
We've climbed from like 13th to like 7th.
But anyway, because I'm awesome.
But that's fine.
So they don't want me to mention Nashville, whatever.
That's fine.
So when people came up to meet me at this bar event last night or two nights ago, Friday, they were like, so how long you been in Michigan? I'm like,
yeah, about two months. Yeah, I've been there about two months. Oh, that's awesome. Where do you live? Michigan, Detroit. I live in Detroit. Well, it reminds me of? So when I came to town to interview for
the Philly job with Andy, he brought me up to the radio station to see everything, which was,
you know, cool, whatever. This was in November of 2013 or October of 2013. And he brought me up to
see the station on like a Saturday night when nobody was there. There was one or two people
there, whoever was running the board and Trev, Trev was there.
And he goes, listen, you're my friend.
Who's in town from Washington.
If anybody asks you, you live in Washington.
I go, well, Andy, I don't know a lot about Washington.
So what if they asked me like a specific question about Washington?
And he says, just say you live near the Capitol.
Like, okay. So Trev comes out
first thing. Hey, this is my friend, Josh. He's in town from Washington. Oh really? Where in
Washington do you live? Near the Capitol. Oh, that's cool. And it was kind of like that in
Detroit. It's kind of like, I just make up a place that I live, you know, like, Hey, where do you
live? I live in Royal Oak. Oh, that's very nice.
They're like, oh, wow, that's a very nice area.
Gru and Lady Gru lived in Royal Oak, I believe.
We live in Royal Oak,
so we have a good time at Royal Oak.
It's a fine time.
Do you think that the Arkansas Razorbacks
have the greatest hashtag ever right now?
It's hashtag Omahaogs.
That is a great hashtag.
I would agree with you. That is a great hashtag. I would agree with you.
That is a fine hashtag.
Not so much for Tennessee.
Spank and Slap, it says,
have you seen all these nasty-ass pride parade videos
of drag tranny people saying they have general
and lube to children?
Really weird.
Yeah, like, here's the thing.
Like, if, like, I just had a parade,
like, let's say it was a let's celebrate
Josh Ennis parade,
and I walked around with my cock flopping out, you wouldn't see much, first of all. If I just had a parade, let's say it was a let's celebrate Josh Ennis parade,
and I walked around with my cock flopping out, you wouldn't see much, first of all.
It'd be mostly balls.
But you'd be like, that's not acceptable.
Why is it okay for Josh Ennis and all of his friends to flop their cocks around all day?
You'd be like, well, that ain't right.
But people are so afraid of offending these groups that they're like,
oh, it's totally cool like what does walking
around with your cock flopping out have to do with being gay like everybody says we want to be like
everybody else like we want to be treated like everybody else which i totally get cool whatever
which you are by the way i don't think anybody treats gay people any different for the most part
yeah but for the most part nobody gives a fuck that you're gay like you make a big deal out of
being gay and then ask well why the fuck do we get treated differently because like nobody gives a fuck that you're gay. Like, you make a big deal out of being gay and then ask, well, why the fuck do we get treated differently?
Because, like, nobody gives a fuck that you're gay.
As we've talked about before, gay dudes love me, and I love them back.
Would I blow them?
No.
Would I let them blow me?
Maybe.
But the point being in all of this is I love gay dudes.
Some of my biggest fans are gay dudes.
People I love are gay dudes.
Well, see, Trey brings up a good point. I don't even think the gays like those people, but I love gay dudes. Some of my biggest fans are gay dudes. People I love are gay dudes. Well, see, Trey brings up a good point.
I don't even think the gays like those people, but I don't know.
And I was having this conversation with a friend today, too, that was like, do you think
like legit gay people are just like, why are all these straight folks wearing rainbows
and got their tits out and their dicks out?
I think that's fair.
Are you just doing it for attention?
But in the same way, though, you get these people, and I know what he's referring to,
because I guess that me and Spank and Slap both follow libs of TikTok.
And you see this one dude had fake tits, and he's twerking on a cop, and his cock's flopping
out.
You're like, what the fuck is going on here?
Here's the fun fact about being gay.
I don't know.
I'm not gay.
That sounded weird.
Let me tell you the facts of being gay, because I know't know. I'm not gay. That sounded weird. Let me tell you the facts of being gay because I know them.
But I have enough gay friends to know this.
None of those gay friends of mine have I ever seen them in a parade with their cock flopping out.
Not one.
Whether it's gay Johnny, whether it's gay Mike, whether it's our other gay friend, or I've got enough of them.
I've got a lot of gay friends.
And I've never seen them in a situation where they're wearing thongs
and fucking dominatrix shit in a parade with their cocks flopping out.
I mean, at least the people I know,
it's mostly the straight folks that are showing their...
Yes, but this person had like, this is a dude with fake tits.
So he obviously was not a straight person.
He was a fucking loony person.
He's probably straight.
Well, that's the big video that's been going around.
And he was probably straight.
He may have been.
I mean, that's the big video that's been going around. And he was probably straight. He may have been. I mean, these like, that's the thing though, is like, in most cases you get like weird
people that make the other group look bad. But like, if I were in a situation, like we, like,
say we had a victory parade, like a team one and like, like, let's say the Phillies won the world
series, right? And they've won 10 of 11. So they may, let's say they win the world series and
Bryce Harper just decides to just fling his cock around, like make a dick helicopter. You'd be series, right? And they've won 10 of 11, so they may. Let's say they win the World Series and Bryce
Harper just decides to just fling his cock around, like make a dick helicopter. You'd be like,
that's probably not acceptable. That's probably indecent. Like, think about this. Lenny Bruce and
these old comedians would get arrested for saying fuck on stage at a concert. NWA would get arrested
for singing fuck the police at a concert, right? Did you know what would happen?
And now dudes flop their dicks around.
Oh, mom's calling.
What a segue.
Now let's talk to my mom.
Speaking of dicks, hey, Drew McIntyre.
Hey, mom.
Oh, hold on, mom.
I'm having a hard time hearing you.
We're on the podcast now.
Oh, here we go.
Oh, yeah, we're on our podcast. We wanted to talk to you about the wrestling match on the podcast oh it was good
yeah i did so emily didn't send me enough pictures i wanted to see videos of you going crazy
uh and then right out of the video that so right out of the shoot you got to see drew mcintyre
though i knew it would be him who else first? First one. And I'm guessing you enjoyed
that very much.
Oh I did and I really wanted
to move the people. We were
just three seats away from where
you would be able to take them.
I felt bad because they were little kids.
I couldn't do that.
Mom would be like the equivalent
of the guy that steals the foul ball
from a kid.
She'd come over and be like, that's Drew. Hold on.
Move away, kids. Drew is here. She's tackling kids
to get a touch on Drew.
I gotta sweat,
Vinny.
It sounds like it was a fun time
though. Jillian, I didn't get a chance
to watch. I was in Detroit. I was at a baseball
game on Friday. No, but the Drew match was so
good. He wrestled Sheamus and they're like best friends in real life. They always put on a game on Friday. No, but the Drew match was so good, and he wrestled Sheamus,
and they're like best friends in real life.
So, you know, they always put on a good show,
and they always just beat the hell out of each other.
Yeah, it was very good.
They went all over the arena, like up close for you.
Yeah, I was like, hello?
I'm like, that was the best movie I ever saw.
My goal is at some point for you to meet Drew.
It just hasn't been able to work out yet.
But at some point, you will get the opportunity to give Drew some hugs and whatnot.
You never come to town for SummerSlam.
If you come to town for SummerSlam, that's probably our best chance.
You guys might have to come here.
The radio row.
Well, I would like him to sign my book.
Your boobs, you said?
Oh, okay. I misunderstood.
Like I would never
I just
put my boobs down because that's more proper.
That's what we're going to try to do is get you
here for SummerSlam because they do a Radio Row
thing where like on the Friday
all the wrestlers are out there and you can interview them.
My ambition, my goal is to
have you in town for that and you just get to interview
all these wrestlers
oh I could do that
you have the best questions too
if grandma can't be here you'll be the next best thing for her
can you imagine grandma sitting there interviewing all these wrestlers
son why do you have to be dirty
son why'd you turn crooked
and why would you hit Goldberg he's older than you
and then she'd break down fox news with him yeah yeah it'd be like i thought you said fox news
because um you know uh son's mom passed away and so his his dad is staying with his sister in texas and he loves
fox news but he's got him this newspaper um that's like a fox news newspaper and today it said
we do not report jokes we just cover the government
well that's the thing is like our audience and we're on Twitch right now, and, like, my audience would love you, I think.
They would love you because Don's a former cop, obviously,
and Don's a bad mamma jamma.
Like, that's a dude you don't want to mess with.
He's very smart.
You really can't lie to him.
No.
Like, he is.
Like, that's why I don't do it.
I don't even attempt to.
I just say, yes, sir, no, sir, and we move on.
You know, I would, like, go by. don't do it i don't even attempt to i just say yes sir no sir and we move on you know i would
like go by and you know i would i would say that i was stuck in traffic and i would stop at stay
and and i would go to get like you know now in all fairness i did buy off the clearance rat
i'm like i'm like well where was you i said well i was stuck in traffic on the interstate
i need to go out to your car for me they need to open the trunk because don was a detective right yeah a homicide detective
so like so he knows like his inclination is to question so like lying to don is a bad idea
yeah it wasn't good
he can tell.
Yeah.
He knows.
Don knows when you're full of shit.
That's why I'm completely honest.
Every time we talk with Don, everything I say is the whole damn truth.
I ain't saying anything to Don that's false.
And every time he says something, I say, yes, sir, I agree with you.
Well, and Don's funny because Tammy and I, we both like our true crime.
We like our dateline.
And you guys text about wrestling all the time. But Don hates dateline and I, we both like our true crime. We like our dateline. And you guys text about wrestling all the time.
But Don hates dateline and stuff, right?
Like, he hates all the true crime stuff.
Did we lose her?
Mom?
We got to call Mom back.
Keep in mind, she's in the middle of nowhere.
She's in Slaughter, Louisiana.
So we got to call Mom back here.
Hold on.
You'll see these cases, and, like, some of them, Don worked. Like, there's a couple in Baton Rouge, and he's like, yeah, these shows, Louisiana. So we got to call mom back here. Hold on. You'll see these cases and like some of them, Don worked.
Like there's a couple in Baton Rouge and he's like, yeah, these shows, man.
Oh, there you are, mom.
Mom?
Yeah.
So Don, so Jilly was saying Don does not like watching true crime shows.
No, that is true because I would like to say, you know, oh, and this is, I wait, no, this
is one I haven't seen this one before.
I go to bed so I can watch it.
And so I'm sitting there watching it.
And I did that for 31 years.
I tell you my story and you don't care.
There are no chance that I'm going to know these people.
I said, and I, and he went, and you know, at first I used to think he told me the stories
over and over because he thought that I forgot or he didn't tell me, but then he realized that
he told him to me because he just needed to tell him again and again and again. Cause some of them
are so horrific that, that, you know, it's just unreal. Because I remember the last time he got woke up in the middle
of the night before he retired, and that was
horrible. What happened?
Did someone get shot or something?
They were
calling him because he was in charge.
So they had to
tell him what to do.
Well, there was apparently
this girl. She was walking
naked through backyards with an infant, a really newborn baby.
And they were trying to figure out, you know, trying to find her.
She just kept walking.
And so finally they found her, but she didn't have the baby.
And so they called him, like, at 2.30, and they're like, well, you know, we're trying to find the baby.
She doesn't have the baby.
And so you know me. I'm like, well, you get out there and you find that baby you know and he goes he goes your baby's dead i'm like you don't know they just trust me that baby's dead don doesn't
sugarcoat don you can't sugarcoat it because he was a detective and he was like the the in charge
was he like the sergeant or something i don't know how that works he was a detective and he was like the in charge. What was he like the sergeant or something?
I don't know how that works.
He was a commander for a long time.
So he's a commander.
Like he ain't going to sugarcoat it because cops don't have time to sugarcoat stuff.
No.
And that's the problem.
No, don't get me political.
But anyway, he does, you know, but the thing was, so they had to pair up and they searched
the field where they thought wasn't in the group that found the baby.
And, you know, you think a quarter inch of water isn't a lot.
But he said that she had put the baby in the ditch.
And obviously, bless his heart.
And I think that that was one of the hardest ones because it was the last one, you know?
And so it sticks with you.
Because this is me.
I was like, well, get out there and find that baby
and bring it to Emily or something, you know?
Bring it home with you or something.
What was the other case?
There was one that, like, they did a 2020 about or something
that Dawn was, like, on the lead for.
I think it might have been um
maybe Derek Pogre or something that's who it was yeah he was the Baton Rouge serial killer
and like Don worked that case yeah he did some a lot of stuff with that and um but it's like
it's sometimes it's funny though because I'll catch myself you know when like we'll be I'll
be riding with Emily or something and we'll be be, you know, going down a road or something.
And I won't use names or nothing, but I'll be like, that's where such and such was found in the septic tank.
You know?
And, you know, I would just go into that or that because I know.
Like, fun fact.
Hey, little known fact there, Emily.
There was a dead baby found right there.
Don found it and everything.
And it's like, I can't imagine.
And, you know, and that's something he has said.
And I think this is something that does hold true is that, you know, back then, if you showed emotion when they started, you were made fun of, you know.
And, you know, I really think that they should give, consider a lot of counseling.
Because they tell you how to carry a gun.
They tell you how to shoot it.
But they don't tell you how to retire and let go.
Sure.
And Don, how long has Don been retired now?
About eight years or so.
And you guys have known each other since when?
Like 2010, 9, 10?
Well, the very beginning
of 11 okay so he's been if we were married like a year and a half or so and in that time i know
he got like four or five calls in the middle of the night oh you know so speaking of guns i i
finished my gun shooting bit yesterday jilly told me that you do not want me to own a gun
no that would be not good you know and why is that why do you think
that is just out of curiosity because i i just think you know if you have a beer or so and it
doesn't seem as bad when you have it if you're if you you know okay now josh if he loses a bet
yeah i'll be like elvis i'll grab a gun and just shoot the TV in disgust.
Yeah, shoot the TV because the thing ran the wrong way or something.
I'd be just like Elvis.
That's what I would be like.
I agree.
To be fair, though, I did win the shooting competition yesterday.
And the prize was the winner got a Glock.
And I was like, listen, i'm not gonna keep i'm not
gonna keep my mom said i can't have a gun i literally told him that i said my mom said i
can't have a gun so give it to the other guy and they did well don had one of those that was
well you know of course obviously he has a lot because you know you get to keep certain ones
of course and they're locked up safely totally safely except for one that he carries but he had a Glock and that thing had
a light on it I'm like oh you can just find anybody oh I got to shoot one of those when I
was training and it's actually pretty cool yeah and they're pretty easy to pull they say you know
what's interesting about this and like because I had never shot a gun before this, and honestly, I just don't have any interest to it.
It's not what I'm into.
But you see guns in movies, and you see how easy people are with them and how easy they make it look to shoot.
When you shoot one of these things, they are like a hand cannon.
They really are.
Oh, I know.
That's what they say because they have to, when Don was in there, they have to qualify every year with a rifle, a handgun, and certain things.
And you have to score really high.
He was like, not bragging, but he was like top marks.
But, you know, he analyzes things, you know.
Have you shot a gun yet?
Uh-uh. I don't want to know no and i'm
not really interested either there's a couple of them that he has that i find really fascinating
because you know i know the man who built them and i mean and it's pretty amazing to just look
at like when don was gone to england you know he said now i'm leaving my gun right here
you put it on the nightstand it's like oh god no wait a second so when he so for the obviously the
people don't know this so don my stepdad his uh daughter lives in england so don just flew over
there to visit because i think they just had a kid right is that does that sound right well yeah
they have two um kids once they're not too young, but he wanted to, you know,
he's never been over there when it's supposedly their summer over there.
He's always been in the winter, and it's, you know, super drizzling cold.
So he wanted to go when you could kind of wear a T-shirt or something.
Gotcha.
So he's been over there, and he told you, hey, the gun is right here.
If anybody comes into the house, then, like, just plug them.
And I guarantee you were
nervous as hell with that gun there i was like i'm like please nobody come in and i'm thinking
to myself if this at night i thought i might have to teach the dogs outside how to unlock their
kennels well it helps though that you got you got two German shepherds out there, right? Are they German shepherds?
Yeah, nobody.
I mean, the poor Amazon people just sell our packages over the fence.
But you guys live in the middle of nowhere.
Like, I think that's fair to say.
Yeah, it's true.
I'm surprised Amazon can find you.
I'll tell you what, Amazon can do anything.
I mean, and I'm not trying to, Amazon can do anything.
I mean, and I'm not trying to be mean about FedEx.
Please don't think that.
But I lost a $50 order of my bath and body work.
It's a semi-annual sale, which is a lot of bath and body work.
I bought some of that, too.
And that's like, and I'm like, the bad part was usually I don't use my own money to pay for it.
And this time I'm like, I paid for this myself.
And that's why I told the lady on the phone, I'm like, you don't think you can find my
daddy's body work?
I don't think so.
I mean, but you guys are out there.
Well, that's why when we send you stuff, we just send it to Emily.
Yeah, like we sent those shirts because I got my mom a Drew McIntyre,
for those of you listening, got my mom a Drew McIntyre shirt
and my sister a Ronda Rousey shirt to wear to the wrestling on Friday.
And I'm like, I just got to send it to Emily because, like,
you guys have a P.O. box, right?
Yeah.
And see, that's the thing.
You can't sometimes, you know, some stuff they won't send.
Then Amazon got on to me because, you know, I had so much trouble with them.
And there was a nice lady at the post office.
I talked to her all the time.
And this is like in the middle of Kodak.
So she's like, put the address of the post office on here.
And then just somewhere under it, put your post office box number.
And, of course, the one time I do that, they tried to deliver it to the post office,
and she's at lunch. And she's like, ma'am, we're really not supposed to take that type of material
to the, I'm like, well, I'm sorry, I just, you know, I misunderstood. And I'm thinking to myself,
they're just throwing me off the amazon now
i'm like this is gonna be bad and i actually i hate to say this but what i said i told my
husband not to do that oh yeah you've got to blame the husband of course
so some of the people who are just joining the chat We're on Twitch right now My mom is on with us
She went to the wrestling match on Friday with my sister
You've got to come for SummerSlam
Like Emily's always saying she wants to come visit Nashville
I think you guys should both just drive down here
Like the week of SummerSlam
Hopefully we can do like the Radio Row thing
And you can interview
Well they don't need anybody else to find their
I can do the Radio Row thing
Yeah no you would be great.
You would crush it.
I'd be like, first time you drew the first hour,
somebody the second hour, drew the third hour.
Didn't you tell Drew that, Josh?
Like, hey, I think my mom should come and do the interview. He thought it was a great idea.
He did.
So actually, here's what happened.
So I was talking to Drew that time that we tried to get you on the FaceTime,
and I said, I want to do a bit where I bring my mom to the radio row for SummerSlam
and just have her interview all these wrestlers
and he goes Josh that's a good
idea Josh I should bring my mom
like he's like I'll tell the WWE
we'll just bring everybody's moms to interview people
I'm like see it's a good idea
and my mom would rule
yeah I think that I would like
to like talk to
Charlotte Flair you know now nobody
talks to her let me say that
but she would be someone that would
be you know I think she would be
and I can't believe she wasn't in Baton Rouge
I understand getting married and having a
honeymoon but two weeks
is a little excessive yeah she did just
get married she did just get married I know
so I've kind of given her the benefit of the doubt
to Andrade and He's hot.
He's hot.
Yeah.
He is very handsome.
Do you like,
do you like Becky Lynch?
No.
Why do you not like Becky Lynch?
I wish she was not one of my favorites.
She's very pretty,
but I just,
you know,
I just,
it's not,
I don't like her.
She's just not my top 10.
Ah,
you know,
I have my preferences. So who are your, so do you like the Lacey Evans I don't like her. She's just not my top ten. Ah. You know, I have my preferences.
So do you like the Lacey Evans?
Do you like her?
Much better than I did when she was there the first time.
Emily said she was hot.
She did.
They really changed her higher up.
Yeah, I don't think, Josh, I don't think you've seen the new Lacey Evans.
I didn't because when I saw her, she was kind of like 1950s kind of pinup look.
Oh, no. They did aup look. Oh, no.
They did a 1950 her.
Oh, wow.
No, she did look very pretty.
But you like Charlotte Flair.
Oh, yes, I do.
Why?
She's so bitchy.
I love Bianca Belair.
Let me tell you.
I like Bianca.
I'm going to praise this for her because what y'all didn't see, there was another match.
I don't know if y'all saw it, but if it went on.
But it was after the 9 o'clock thing.
It was Bianca and Asuka.
Oh, Asuka's one of my favorites.
I like her a lot.
I know.
I know a good picture of her.
And that was the best match.
I mean, there was total respect.
And both of them, after the match, they went around that auditorium.
They're all the little kids.
And it was just so nice how they did.
I just thought they were class.
I think Bianca is great.
I think she's just fun.
I think she's genuine.
She just seems like the nicest girl.
She did seem that way on their team.
It was just nice.
She just took her time.
And she was like all the time.
Emily was trying to get up there, but there was this one kid that really wanted to meet her and touch her.
And so, I mean, I said, Emily, you might want to stay away from her.
I said, I mean, this is beautiful.
But here's the thing, Mom.
When me and Grandma used to watch wrestling, you would just make fun of us all the time.
Like, me and Grandma, you would make fun of it
and you'd say, you guys are so stupid.
And this is so dumb.
And now fast forward to now,
your grandma is who you are.
You've evolved into grandma.
So have you.
No, no, my wife has evolved into grandma.
I still make fun of you guys.
I watch it because she makes me watch it.
Here, this is Lacey now.
Oh wow, let me see this Lacey Evans. Oh yeah, she looks really good. I like that look. I watch it because she makes me watch it. Oh, wow, let me see this Lacey Evans.
Oh, yeah, she looks really good.
I like that look.
Her baby ain't that old.
Yeah, she just had a baby not that long ago. She looks great.
Yeah, she does. I like how they
got her now because
it was nice, but I think
this is more now
or something than she
was. There's something about bianca i love her out
yeah so and josh is happy that alexa is back of course you know he loves oh i love alexa the
crazy little thing she's so cute josh josh wants the alexa and live morgan tag team to happen
oh josh well i, but they look good.
Don's still praying for Lana to come back.
Well, Don's going to have to keep wishing because I don't think Lana's coming back.
Don loved Lana and the Iconics.
Oh, yeah.
Now, the Iconics, they were fun.
They were fun.
I liked them, too, but Don loved them.
Oh, yes, he did.
He did.
He did.
So, well, we got you here, mom, because people are watching.
So, when I broke my ankle, that was in like 1996, right?
No, it was 1997.
It was in 1997 when I broke my ankle, right?
And all I remember about this is you said, listen, Josh, don't you ride that four-wheeler.
You don't know how to do that.
But you lied.
And I lied, and I told everybody that I knew how to ride that four-wheeler you don't know how to do that and I said lie and I
and I lied and I told everybody that I knew how to ride a four-wheeler and then before you know
what I ran over my own ankle on a four-wheeler and broke the I almost killed my sister on this
thing well I didn't know that part oh yeah I almost ran her over I didn't know what I was
doing and so and then we first thought we're like yeah maybe it's just a sprain I got up tried to
walk on it and it was like destroyed so but I didn't realize that i flew did i fly in a helicopter
no they couldn't get it there you had to go in a regular ground ambulance so i went in an ambulance
from where from where to where from kennett missouri to st louis missouri which is about
what like a three hour drive four hour drive-hour drive? Four hours, probably. Oh, my God. And did you follow, like, in a car?
Yeah, I went and got the stuff I needed, and then I got there, you know, whenever.
So, I didn't know that.
Like, I don't remember any of that.
That's wild.
Well, that's because they gave you drugs.
Well, that was a good move on their part, so I was out then for four hours.
The only thing I remember about anything is how dreadful it was to be on crutches
and have, cause my, I had a cast that was bent at the knee for months and then they had to take
the pins out of my ankle and it was awful. That was pretty cool to watch though.
Yeah, I'm great that it was cool to watch, but I remember being just scared out of my mind to get
these things removed from my ankle. you were only 10 yeah and the thing
is and now I never thought anything of it they were like well you know you broke your growth
plate never thought anything of it now as I get older I noticed that my foot one foot is smaller
than the other so like one my left foot I wear a size 14 and in reality I could probably wear a 13
in my right foot that was broken easily yeah well that's that's not
uncommon but they did a very good job I mean they were they were very good there and I remember the
little boy that was in the room with you I felt so bad for him had been burned and they would come
in there and they would you know try to turn him and stuff How long was I in there? About three days.
And then you just drive me home
to, at the time we lived in Arkansas. You don't remember any of that?
Like, you don't remember being in the hospital? Not really,
no. Really? No.
I was probably drugged up for most of it.
Yeah, but it was
a really kind of scary thing
because you didn't know.
I mean, but it was...
You know what I remember? I remember talking to dad on the phone once because he didn't know. I mean, it was. You know what I remember? I remember talking to Dad on the phone once,
because he wasn't there, obviously.
Did he even know what happened?
How did Dad find that out, Mom?
I don't know.
I think I told him, and then I got that whole thing about,
what do you think?
They do not know what country it is.
And you take them out there to nowhere.
It's like the time that, I'll never forget, Emily asked me to buy her a pig for FFA.
A pig, you said, for FFA?
Yeah, she raised a pig each year, 9th through 12th grade, for FFA.
And the first year, her pig went to the state fair, you know.
And the whole time, I was like, why does she want a pig?
What did she do there?
I said, well, if it makes you feel any better, she wants it wearing her cheerleading outfit.
I'm like, you know, I was like, you know, I said, not everybody lives like you.
You know, I said, everybody has different lives, you know?
Sure.
And I'm like, you know, just let it be.
But you expect me to pay for that pig?
I'm like, well, somebody's going to have to.
And it was the first thing I read along.
But whenever she was down at your desk, so when they got the pigs, I had to go pick her pig out.
How did you determine which pig to pick out?
Well, I was sitting there, you know, her friends were there.
I knew some of her friends because, you know, they were at our house all the time.
And I was like, well, I guess.
So how do FFA pigs work? Do they eventually become like bacon and ham and stuff yeah i don't
say that so i did not realize that because whenever they were taking them away i said
so where's the farm at they go to the farm oh no and then they then they go to a farm. Like, where do they go?
A spa?
She also raised pigs for FFA.
Oh, one of our friends raised pigs.
And then so I guess at the end, they take them and they slaughter the pigs.
And after that, each FFA banquet, I would never eat the food.
Yeah, but they served them.
Oh, no.
I was like, I bet you that.
I could think of like the exact TV.
But you guys like bacon and you like pork steaks.
Yeah, but I don't like my own.
I don't like to know it personally.
I don't like to be on a first name date.
Did the pig have a name?
What was that pig's name?
The first one was Kiwi.
Oh, no.
You ate Kiwi?
Yeah, that was him.
He was the best one.
And then there was Lily.
And what was the other two?
I can't remember the other two.
I don't remember Lily because I had to deal with it.
And, you know, like I said, Emily wasn't there.
So I picked this pig out.
And I'm listening to this instructor who, I mean, at that point, I wasn't old enough to be his mom, but close.
And all the girls at FFA, once I saw him, I realized, wait, they didn't.
And I'm like, okay.
So I'm saying, I'm going to explain to you.
And I'm like, uh-huh.
There's the music.
I'm down here so it can get familiar with you. So it'll know you. I'm like, uh-huh. There's the TV that comes down here so it can get familiar with you so it'll know you.
I'm like, okay.
So for three days,
I go down there and I talk to it
and how it's doing.
Like, well, Emily will be back in a month
or so.
And so I keep going down there.
A lot of them look just alike, okay?
But I knew what the thing was in.
I go there and i get this call while i'm at work and it's a little cute little instructor and he goes um i've been meaning to
call you i'm gonna be going to another pig auction and i'm gonna get emily another pig and And I'm like, well, why? Well, Peewee died like, you know, the night after.
I'm like, so who was I talking to?
And so I called him and his friend Casey. I'm like, Casey,
why didn't you tell me? We thought you would cry.
And so I was talking to this
pig under the pretense that I thought
it was cute because a lot of them
in all fairness look alike
yeah they're pigs of course they all look alike
well no they all have different coloring
this was the typical black and
white pig and he was cute
you know and they were all cute so
I'm talking and I mean I even
cleaned that pig's cage.
Everything, you know.
Yeah.
I'm like, somebody's going to set up something.
And then after all this, and I did a new pig.
It's like, mom, you know, Casey's pig is right next to your pig.
And then such and such is right next to theirs.
So since you're down there stripping that, did you just do theirs?
I'm like, really?
Oh, no.
So here I am.
I might as well have just cleaned all of them.
Oh, no.
But it was good.
He was good.
He did really, really well.
How do you determine how you do well?
Like, what determines that?
When you go to the state fair. When you like he won the competition locally then he won it at the county fair so if
you win a county fair you go to the state fair and now he didn't place well enough to like if
you place like the top 10 or something people will buy them to breed them, you know. And how do they determine what makes a pig breedable?
Well, it's kind of like a dog show, I guess.
You know, you feel their muscle mass.
You feel their, you know, just make sure.
They did this thing one time.
And each SSA person had to judge something.
And Emily got horticulture, which she had to judge trees,
I think is what that is, or something.
You know, what does she know about trees?
But anyway, so, you know, she had to do what she had to do.
And so the last people to get on the bus,
they were held up by the people that were,
what can you say on here?
Can you say, like, certain words or what kind of words?
I mean, you can say anything you want.
I mean, whatever you want to say
well I don't want it to sound you know nasty or something but um he she did they get on the bus
and they're asking for what he just said well we had to judge the pig and and and somehow it had
they said something about like and this it was the case this piece had a firm vulva on like
oh they had a what yeah because i guess they judge on that for a female pig i guess you know
but what was it it had a what vulva it had a vulva do all pigs have a vulva well female pig
i know jilly just went to the bathroom now Now she came back in. She hears, what are we hearing about pig
vulvas? Like what the hell? I'm like, so
how did they, is that like a good thing if a pig
has like a vulva? Well, I guess
I guess it was something to do
with judging them. And anyway, I guess
Emily didn't really get
the whole thing. She goes, isn't
that a car?
No, not quite.
No, it's not a Volvo.
That was a very learning experience, I'm telling you.
That sounds like it.
Yeah, totally.
But Emily is pretty smart, though.
She managed to not have to shave her own pigs or anything.
She always has someone to do it.
See, that's good.
That's a very smart thing to do.
Emily is very bright.
She's very entrepreneurial, or whatever you want to say.
No, but it was really fun.
We had a really, I mean, I love both pigs.
I mean, you get attached to them, and then you feel,
I can't even talk about it when you're driving them away.
Oh, no.
It was like it was yesterday. Oh, no. It was like it was yesterday.
Oh, no.
They were pregnant.
Well, everybody, that's my mom, Tammy.
Mom, we'll have to talk with you again on here at some point.
People love you.
We have to work on getting you here for Radio Roper SummerSlam.
We have to work on the details of battle.
When is that?
Well, SummerSlam is July 30th, so that would be what?
It gives me time.
Yeah, because I have to go to Mike's wedding.
You know, Mike is my nephew.
Did I tell you that we got an invite to that wedding randomly?
Yeah, because what was going to happen, she intended to send it all on my invitation if
y'all did want to come, but somehow she made y'all a separate one.
I failed to send it to y'all.
You were very confused, Josh.
I was like, I haven't talked to him in like 10 years, 15 years.
But he's such a good guy.
He is.
And his mom and dad have both passed away.
And I never thought he'd get married, kind of like you.
I'm glad you thought that.
But he made it further than you did.
He sure did, didn't he?
Here I am being married now for damn near, what, three years?
Yeah, and we didn't even have, like, a ceremony.
Although, to be fair, that was due to being fired and the Rona.
That was a double whammy.
Yeah, we were going to have an actual wedding.
Then we got married in Vegas.
I would still like to have, like, a five-year, like, everybody get together.
Yeah, vow renewal.
Yeah, something like that.
Well, yeah, you've got to have a party somewhere.
Yes, yes, yes
Yes, and I figure I'm probably gonna, you know
Try to go to that because, you know
That'll be fun, you know
I'm really proud for it
That's good
And he passed away, my sister, you know
It makes it, you know, somebody should be there
I agree, so that's good
And hopefully we can get you here for SummerSlam
We gotta talk about it
Yeah, I was trying to figure out Because because that's his wedding on the 16th.
Oh, you'll be good.
You'll be good.
You're good.
You're good.
Yeah, I'm going to tell you, I'll just start working on my questions.
