Hello folks, welcome to Nate land. Always glad to have you sitting with Brian Bates. Back is Aaron Webber now. All right, everybody, we're back. This is like you're about to be getting a bunch of, not a bunch, but some podcasts that are going to be just, we have to prerecord some. I mean, I don't think I'm home until November. And this is, what is today?

This is coming out. On the 13th. October 13th, me and my wife's anniversary. Wednesday the 13th. Congrats. How many years? Too many. No.

16. 2006. So what is that? No, 15. 15. 15. Yeah. Is that a big one?

Is that a one that's like a milestone? No, I think 20 is the big one. 10 is big. Five is kind of like, all right, we're still. She just told me 15 was big. Is it? No, she didn't. We're not even doing anything.

Oh. She'll be lucky if I see her. I'm going to walk by her, pat her on the booty, and say, happy anniversary, and kind of walk on my way. Head out to the golf course. Give her a little slap. Good game. Good game out there.

We've been doing pretty solid for these 15 years uh yeah we'll be together actually because she's coming they're on they're coming on the road with me uh fall break usually we're not together we actually will be together but i'm we're i'm you know you're working the whole time uh we just always end up doing something later so i'll just plan for something later i think 20 or 20 year we're kind of like going to try to take a really big trip or something. But yeah, 15, we've always just worked, man. It's always been busy. Yeah.

You know, we do stuff. I'll do something, you know, I'll do something. Kind of thinking about it right now. I'll do something, you know. Yeah. I'll buy a rose and a Kroger and just go in. Sitting hard to pick it up? Yeah.

Just be like, you should be getting something from Publix soon. Two roses and some Valentine's Day candy and happy anniversary. Card that says happy anniversary. You write on it. After 15 years, you're years like i can't believe we made it this far we love each other so it's the same that's what marriage ends up coming you should write for hallmark i know well we're here doing it 15 year card should just be hey we're still here the fact that we love each other still is enough.

I actually am good at writing cards out. That's my one thing I am good at. I'll write like a man. You write your own cards. I'll have a card. I don't even care. Sometimes I'll buy a funny card, and I'll write like a very sweet message. But I'm really good at writing sweet messages. She just buys the card and says, no, they're saying everything that I want to say.

And I'm like, but you didn't write anything. I think it was the King of Queens about that. Or he had an old joke about that or something. He had a bit in Sweat the Small Stuff

about men and women buying cards. I don't think the card, I don't, like, it's like, I think it's got to come from you. You're taking the opposite position he took in the special.

Like, almost give me a blank card. Yeah. If I'm, that's why I could buy one that's like, it could say it's like, you're my favorite aunt. I don't think I've done that before. It's like, that's funny.

Yeah, that is funny. And then you write a very sweet thing in there. Yeah, because it's not really you saying it. If you just hand the card, it's someone else. Yeah, it's like they're going to why I picked it out. I mean, I think this is his old routine. Oh, it is? I don't know. I think so.

But it's like that yeah it's the idea that they they picked it you know it's like yeah but i chose that one for you and i write something in we have a lot of stuff i think it's like we're kind of switch roles of she's very husband-like and i'm very wife-like yeah uh could be my legs by the way i got trashed by my legs that picture you put i mean everybody i think the picture was it's a beautiful picture and it though it just looks not as uh flattering well it was done one of those uh angles uh yeah yeah somebody compared them to minute bull yeah that's why he wore those big socks uh yeah the angle wasn't just because it wasn't about the legs yeah it was about the

the theater everybody ignored the theater yeah everybody's where was this taken i don't see i can't see past your legs it was uh i you know i think i my legs are not as bad as I think they think, but I got made fun of Jay Cutler. When I took the picture of Cutler, people were like, well, those legs. No, we all got trashed on that one. Yeah. Because we all looked pretty silly standing next to him. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Wrinkled, tacky shorts. I don't know. I want to work my legs out now. So I'm going to try to start doing that. I'll see. But your last question, you complained that that's all you do is legs. And now it's like, well, now you know why. Yeah.

Yeah. I've been lying to you. He does do legs a lot. But I even said, well, I guess we got to do more. Yeah, there it is. It's just like a knot. Your shoes look giant. That's what we have is the bargettis.

Our stomach goes out. Then we got little legs. Your shoes look giant. That's what we have is the Bargettis. Our stomach goes out. Then we got little legs. Big feet. Well, now we've covered this feet. That's nine and a half feet. Looks bigger. That's an awesome looking theater, though.

Yeah. Is that a good show? Yeah, yeah. The show's amazing. Where is that? West Palm Beach. They're the strictest on COVID. It's kind of funny.

Really? In Florida? Yeah. I mean, everybody else has been like, there's whatever the venues. I don't make these rules up, you know. But they always, you have to do, usually it's like a, show a vaccine card or like a COVID test. And some places are like kind of whatever. And some are a little,

obviously the places you think would be. In Florida, you just wouldn't think, I was like, I thought it was like free. And then Jacksonville was cool. I mean, Jacksonville, we only let people in that had COVID. And then- You had to show a positive test.

Yeah. Do you have it? Proof of COVID. And they go, no, I i don't think i've never had it they goes well i guess you're never coming to this show tonight are you and then we got them out of there and i was a part of that i decided get out of here right now i'd walk out uh but then west palm was like i think it was their first show back wow and they were i mean i i like going to the backstage was like yeah yeah, everybody had to do a –

I had the mask on. I had the mask on until I walked out on the stage. And you were in like a big room. Like none of us were near each other. It was a enormous stage. There was four people back there. It was just very funny to be like, all right, we'll wear our masks, and then we go sit in a bus for

14 hours together like uh but you know what you know good you know it's all it's a tough thing right now we'll get through it and then we'll do the smallpox uh bring that back yeah they uh so uh yeah that was great i went to to, I played Sawgrass this weekend. Big, big course. I got to play with Paul and Reed Joyner. Reed is 11 years old and I lost 40 bucks to him and he beat me. How old is he? 11.

Wow. He's a really good golfer. And that's the hole. That's the famous hole i've seen that the famous hole so i got asked a lot what happened on it i i think i posted if people saw it but i hit a little nine iron had a little win a great shot right over the flag i mean i thought i was like oh man this is going to be super close a little long but the wind was in there so i probably should hit a pinch of wedge but i don't want to be short yeah and so i was in the kind of the back spot which the famous thing is better than most with Tiger Woods.

Better than most, better than most. And I was kind of around there. My flag was in the middle. His flag was always in the front. And I three-putted. So that was the only difference between. Mine was, yeah, he was like, it's about average, about what everybody does.

That would have been what he said. For Tiger, it was better than most. Mine was like, it's about average, about what everybody does. That would have been what he said. For Tiger, it was better than most. Mine was like, this is routine here. Three putt from there, I'm going to lift out on. But I played terrible. I was on like three hours of sleep. Shot 91, which is not good. I was hoping to break.

I'm just going through some swing issues. Looks like an awesome course, though, man. Swing changes. And I got help with Chris Como, which Chris Como is Bryson DeChambeau's guy right now. Oh, wow. Jason Day's guy. And he did Tiger Woods. And he did me and my brother.

It was pretty special. And now me. Me and Derek Bargetzi. It was a special trip because uh it was uh that Boyd Summerhays too that commented on this he's a big coach he does female his son is unreal his son's a great great golfer uh and then Boyd is you know but Como's like just such a big deal dude I mean a lot of people are not going to think this is crazy, but it is the craziest that we got to talk to him and me and Derek.

And it's special just to get to do with Derek. Yeah. We played sawgrass, and then we got a lesson with him. That's awesome, man. And then like so just working on some trying to get that swing down. It's like you can feel it where you're like you know there's a swing that's like gets consistent that's the hard part about golf is like you start hitting some good shots and you're like well there's a way to figure this out and then i don't have to think about this anymore and it's just naturally there and i'm just there like

where he's like you end up being like a someone wants to be people always ask my handicap i'm three at my course i'm probably a five at most other courses but you want to be a five but you want to get to like a plus two and you're like well how do i you know how do i do it is that consistent i mean it's chipping and putting but i know you got to get that swing down and when you hit it right it's like amazing so we're seeing either that or i'll throw my clubs away uh but i still like where it's going. It was a fun, yeah, bit of fun. Trying to think about it. We met a lot of people.

So let's go, folks. Jacksonville, unbelievable. I almost, I mean, we did the show there. I would shoot a special there. I almost wish I would have known how good it was going to be and how that theater was. I mean, every show was awesome. Mobile was, like, super fun. They were, like, one of the loudest pops i've heard when i went out west palm was so great even with all that's going on there like it was like everybody was just super

cool and like uh that crowd was great and jacksonville just that theater was uh beautiful and uh the crowd was so good and i was like man i if i would have known they were that good i would have just shot a special there i'd have been like let's just wait and do it next year and shoot a special uh but i'll just have to do another special it was great yeah jacksonville's cool the weather they got good breeze from the ocean yeah jacksonville gets trashed a lot i'm very impressed but So you, okay. Yeah, I loved it. I mean, I didn't do a ton, so I don't know for everything.

Yeah. Sawgrass was there. I know they got good golf there. I don't think it's as hot. Like, they're hot. When it's 95 there, you at least have a breeze from the ocean. It's kind of like L.A. where the parts, if you go to the valley, it ends up being 105 degrees.

But if you go by the ocean, you always kind of got a breeze. So even when it's hot, there's at least a breeze. Yeah, I just enjoyed it. I don't know. Were you there Sunday? We left Sunday. I could have went to Titans. I didn't realize it, and then I saw it like last week.

I was like, oh, man, we could have went to that game. But I did the Chris Como thing, so I would do that over. How much I'd want to go to the Titans. I'd love to go to the Jags game, but it's just too hard to do some of that stuff. We played in our first charity golf match yesterday. Oh, that's right. Yesterday. Who was that for?

It's for a soldier's child. It's an organization that helps out children who lost a parent in the war. Oh, that's awesome. So it's a great organization. It was fun. It was your first time, right? It was my first time doing something. I was with a cool group.

They didn't expect a big celebrity. They didn't care. They also didn't expect me to be good at golf, which was really nice. That's all you want with those groups. You will sometimes get guys that like want to win this thing and they make it really not fun yeah uh and if you can get like one of i remember i played one and we bogeyed a bunch of holes which is pretty rare for a scramble like you just don't bogey holes and we were like the guys that the people i was playing with were just terrible

and i'm and i wasn't it's not like i, we played my ball a lot, but I wasn't, I mean, I wasn't a guy going to go out and like, I'm not a pro. And so I remember we had to take the sand shots because that was our best option, which is very funny to be on the scramble. Out of all four of you, the best option is the trap. And we would make bogeys. And I don't even know if we, we might have been over par by the time we were done. But to this day, one of the best groups ever – I mean, I've played with a bunch of them now.

They're all fun. But that was just a very – like, they didn't care at all. Yeah. And they just were, like, having a good time. You're like, these people are great, man. Well, just to speed things up, we had – it was automatic two-putt and par. Like, automatic par. Oh, we didn't have automatic par but i think we had automatic

two putt and we still would bogey yeah but we the par thing the par thing is a good thing like just put par down just speed things up man what was your group uh they were fun i played so bad even by my standards i get really nervous because i get out there. I've never met these guys. They all know each other. I feel like they're immediately disappointed that I'm the celebrity. Yeah. In my head, I think that. Yeah.

And then I'm so bad at golf. I feel like they just think, this guy is bringing nothing to the table. Yeah, he's bad. They didn't put pressure on me. They were a really fun group, but I played really bad. I could just tell I was nervous. Yeah. Did they talk to you about keeps?

We were all wearing hats. Yeah, yeah. You didn't take it off when you shook hands? No. At the end? They were more interested in, we had to do a silly photo. Yeah. Which I hate.

Comics, I think, usually hate doing those. And everyone thinks the comic's going to come up with something. These guys were all into it, and it immediately went dirty. Yeah, yeah. That's the woman taking a picture. She's like, can we do anything we want? And she's like, yeah. They really got into it.

And now I'm just with this group of people trying to play along, and they're sticking tees at places. I mean, it's almost like we couldn't even show it on the podcast. I mean, probably not. Probably not. We'd have to blur a lot of it. But Brian's in it. You're in the picture.

I'm in the photo just doing this, staring at it like Jay Cutler. That would always be like when someone comes up and asks you, I don't like silly photos either. You're just like, let's just take the picture. It's like, let's do a fun one. You're like, is this not fun? It's a picture. I'm smiling.

Yeah, I'm smiling. I don't want a fun one with my family. I don't want it. It's not like it's just people. Right. But it's not, I don't, you know, like, let me just take this picture. And then, but I would always feel, too, like, I'd always get people like, hey, we flicked the camera off.

And there was a couple times, because, like, at the beginning, you're just like, you know, you feel like you're like, well, I guess I have to do whatever this person says. And there's maybe been, like, two or three times I had to do it and i thought i you know it was like a long time ago now i'm like i never liked it i hated it every single time and then now i just say no i'm like no absolutely no you can do whatever you want but i'm not yeah we're good i'm gonna yeah sit here and smile yeah i'm gonna smile and be a regular person i I mean, I'm 42, so I think those days are gone. And you feel that old too, sir.

So those days should be gone for you. People hang on to stuff too long, and they're doing that kind of stuff. Golf is a little different. These dudes, were they drunk? Yeah. Yeah. So that's a whole different. I mean, at least I didn't have to come up with the idea.

They had their own ideas. They were ready. They were, yeah. Did either of the people know who you were? No. No. Your group? No.

No. That's the hard part. Still didn't, even when we were done. They had heard of you. Oh, they have? Yeah, they hadn't heard of me or Brian. I'd say that's a group that you would think, I don't think they would have even heard of me.

You can get to some. I feel pretty confident my group would not have known you. Did I tell a story about my golf thing at Old Hickory Country Club? So I would do one every year for my high school, Donaldson Christian Academy, DCA. And so we do a golf tournament, and it's turned into, like, it's just the Nate Bargetti Golf Tournament. I didn't mean it to be that, but I, like, paid for, like, I guess something one time, and it's turned into like it's just the Nate Bargetti golf tournament I didn't mean it to be that but I like paid for like I guess something one time and it's become that

and so it's like I love it like coach Goodwin a football coach there he uh always runs it he's great he's about to retire uh just a sweet man and so we do it and then so sometimes my dad always wants me to like go around and like take pictures with everybody or something. And like, so one year I played in it. The second, next year, I think I was like, all right, well, I'll do that. I'll just go drive around and like take pictures with everybody. And it was just like, no one cares. And then I told him, and this year I was, this year I was like, I'm going to play.

Like I'll be there, but I want to just play in it. And I'll take pictures with everybody. I don't, but I was like, I'm like rolling up on people being like y'all get a picture and they're like i guess i mean some of them i know like forever i mean some are very nice but i'm in this one group i was uh i walked up to go take a picture of this group uh a younger kid, probably 16. He comes up and is like nervous. And he's like, me and my mom watch you, I mean, all the time. We're such big fans. I don't know when I take the picture, I can feel him kind of shaking a little bit. And in the same group, an older man walks up and he goes,

you still doing comedy? He's at a tournament that's named after me. And he's like, you still bouncing around a little bit? I go, I'm just trying to plug away. Just keep knocking chips away. It's all you can do, right? The other kid is marveled by me. Yeah.

And this guy doesn't know. Hey, you still working? Keep plugging away, dude. What are you doing? You still at the water company? Still working over there? Like, ah, you know. Yeah, i'm the

best water reader i'm so good that they named this golf tournament after me he thought it was a charity for you yeah yeah this money going to you right because i don't make sure it doesn't go anybody else hang in there buddy yeah hang in there you get on your feet that's the beautiful thing about comedy is you just end up it's it's kind of a perfect thing you get knocked right back down i was gonna say i had a very funny moment with some podcast fans this weekend opened for henry cho and walhalla south carolina and a big group came out uh that knew me from the podcast and i didn't know they were there until at the end of henry's show he does a q a yeah he'll just take questions from the crowd, and I didn't know they were there until at the end of Henry's show, he does a Q&A.

Yeah. And he'll just take questions from the crowd. And somebody yelled out, how far could you throw a football? And I'm in the back just dying, and nobody even knows. They're like, what a random question to ask this guy. And there's got to be a couple people in the front that they don't know why they're asking that, but they like let's let's hear what he says i love this yeah harry was like uh i mean i don't i guess like i don't know he was like what a weird question yeah the other

ones are like who's your favorite comedian who inspired you yeah it was great but that was a that's a better question yeah i'd like to know i would rather that question if you ever if i ever took, which don't just yell questions out, but if I ever say, let's do a Q&A somewhere, I would be like, but ask me weird. Ask me those kind of questions. One that I got was in D.C. one time. Someone goes, are you really?

Because I did try a Q&A, and this is what made me stop it. A, the audacity I feel when I do that sometimes. Like you're sitting there and you're like, anybody want to ask me some questions? And you're like, I mean, who do you think you are? I'm not saying Henry. A lot of people do it, and it's great. But for me, I honestly just was like, I feel uncomfortable.

You do have a golf tournament named after you. It's my high school, though. Just messing. That's true. I'm just messing. i don't like those questions aaron those statements yeah don't you dare and they wait what did somebody say uh yeah i'm still saying oh sorry man i feel like you're trying to move it on because no i thought you're embarrassed that you said that to me i have a golf tournament named after me. That's the ego I have. I feel like you want this to move on. You don't like it. What did the guy say?

He goes, are you really this dumb? Just yelled it out. Did it sound like your wife at all? The wonder of a voice. Did it get a big laugh when he said it? It did. I think it got

a laugh. think but he was serious i was in washington dc so it felt like a serious question hey are you okay like you know that was about the last time i took questions because i was like hey you can't really can't come back from that there's no come back from that what's that yeah well they call him galooly yeah yeah after they uh took out bett midler's. Yeah. Yeah. After they took out Bette Midler's understudy. Yeah. Or took out Bette Midler.

Yeah. Yeah. And he goes, there's no comeback for that. Yeah. Yeah. So, all right. But I do have a golf tournament

named after him. Do you think we could get on it next year? As a team? You could. Maybe put y'all on as some celebrities on there. Yeah. As a team, you could. We could maybe put y'all in as some celebrities on there.

Put quotation marks around the celebrities. It will be how we're doing is I'll walk y'all to each car and go, do you know who these people are? And they go, no. And then we move on until we can find them. And if we find someone, y'all get to play with them. If we don't, y'all just go. Y'all drive back home.

My group at one point goes, so, Andrew, you're a celebrity? And I go, well, that answers your question. You just got my name wrong. Getting asked if you're a celebrity. Andrew. Yeah, Andrew, you're a celebrity? You go, yeah, I guess. Can't go places.

It's Aaron. It's Aaron. Yeah, that's me. Yeah, it's Aaron. But I mean, I'm you know pretty big when I walked to my cart when we were all starting I ran into a buddy of mine from high school I hadn't seen in a while and he said uh is this just a charity that's near and dear to your heart I was like yeah no I'm one of the celebrities and he just started laughing yeah and I was like who's

the celebrity in your group he's like my buddy's brother yeah plays guitar yeah and he like you're a more celebrity than that I think so but to him he was more surprised his buddy's brother just plays like

I guess he plays like somewhere professionally he just knows how to play guitar yeah which I don't that's what you should say

your celebrity is you go he's like a decent piano player and they go dude that's very funny to be like celebrities are literally nowhere but they're they're just really good at a craft like you know like you know this guy would work uh it's called the most rattlesnakes in uh southwest

texas and you go oh that's cool man yeah i think those celebrities. Yeah. Like, don't get a real famous person. Just get someone that's really great at what they do. Just like an interesting person. Like an interesting person. Yeah. And that goes. My brother, we played my brother's buddy. We played guitar.

For like a band? Did he play? No. No, no. He just, he knows how to play it. We don't. So that was all it took. That's what everybody just compared to the regular group, and go all right who wants to be a celebrity yeah and then you got to pick

that almost could be fun too out of your group you got to pick who's this celebrity yeah and then just what all right well what do you do and everybody's got to ask what they do and then everybody decides you know i sell insurance and like you if you do so insurance you're like have you sold it to someone faint like you need to have some connection you know be sell insurance and like you if you do so insurance you're like have you sold it to someone faint like you need to have some connection you know be like i did uh you know vin diesel's aunt's house and they go all right whoa all right you did you insured her house yeah did you meet him no she had pictures everywhere though huh my team was southern stump they dig up stumps for people and so the whole time we're out there

the guy's just looking at trees like that would be a 350 job i mean he's just telling us the different trees out there yeah what they would be well that's interesting so he was really the celebrity yeah yeah yeah he has all this yeah he was giving more than you gave yeah yeah yeah do you uh tf when you hit up when your foot comes up late? Have you been working on that? That's my good shots, and I didn't have any. Oh. A few times they'd be like, make us laugh.

And I'm like, watch this tee shot. Yeah. And then that would make them laugh because they'd see me play. Yeah. That was my go-to. Yeah. Did you all drive anybody? Were they good?

Yeah, they were good. They were very good. No. Did you ever not tee it up and say, like, we're just – I wanted to. You can do that. I almost suggested it a couple times, but I just – Just do it.

I just – yeah. They would like it. Especially when – I'm not trying to be – No, I know. It's like if you know – I mean, we played with a guy at Sanderson Farms. Played with a great group, And they all work at Sanderson Farms. They're just super fun.

And I mean, one of our group was like, he was super, super funny. But he would do that. So he's like, alright, I'm not going to drive. I've done it sometimes. You're like, one guy would rope it 310 down the middle. You're like, we don't have to. Why waste our time? Let's just go. Unless you want to hit,

you're like, well, I want to hit. But if you're not hitting good, just go. I'll just meet you up there. Even like I would just kind of – and that's also if you're the worst one in the group, kind of maybe sometimes go first. I would. Yeah. But it was just kind of a waste.

Like, why am I doing this? Yeah. And I'd always putt first so they could watch my line. Brian gave me that advice. I offered that every time. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

So at least they can watch what your ball does. And make sure you're yeah that's the only thing just try to be in the ball around the hole yeah don't go short yeah don't go short and don't go super long sometimes you think that you're gonna you're like oh y'all wanna watch my line then you just fly it by the hole and you're it was useless yeah you're like that we got nothing out of that because you can't i didn't get to see anything it does you're like that we got nothing out of that because you can't i didn't get to see anything it does you're like i guess it tapered off and broke off at the very end back there 100 feet from the hole all right let's read some comments that was a long oh look at that wow uh animal part two comments dan the man with the pants

that's his thing dan, the man with the pants. That's his thing. Dan, the man with the pants. I don't think I mind that. No? He has pants. But how would you know the difference? Maybe always no shirt, no shoes.

That's how he would be. And then who is he? He's the man with the pants on. With only pants. Only pants. Maybe there's a xylophone in it. Yeah, maybe there is. Xylophone?

Is that how you say it? Yeah. Of course, a topic as complex as animals needed a part two. Glad they finally listened to the fans. Brad McClung. Nate's saying, yeah, that's college, you know? As if he actually knew was like when Michael Scott says campus, brings me back so many memories that I would have made.

Yeah, that's an amazing line in the office. Yeah. How many memories I would have made. Robert James, Nate said the Pistol Shrimps would be a good name for a minor league team. James. Nate said the Pistol Shrimps would be a good name for a minor league team. Aubrey Plaza played on the Pistol Shrimps Rec League basketball team

with other comedians. I didn't know that. Yeah, Aubrey Plaza right there. Was it like a movie? It's a documentary called the Pistol Shrimps. Oh, really? 2016. And there's a podcast. Oh, really? Called the Pistol Shrimps Radio. Didn't know that. at that that's good yeah

it's a fun logo yeah it's a good name shrimps don't care about it yeah short people offended but other than that everybody kind of likes it you're anti uh you're anti-gun and anti-short people You got to find that group. And they're like so furious. Andrea Deicher. Deicher? A Dog's Journey is a movie series with Dennis

Quaid and the dog's name was Bailey. So that's why, that's probably why it's a popular dog name. That makes sense. Yeah. You know. A Dog's Journey. so that's why that's probably why it's a popular dog name that makes sense yeah you know was that the one you were questioning why bailey so popular yeah i just usually there's an explanation i don't know if this movie must have been really popular i don't know it's a movie series which already is something that's never existed sequels oh is it a series and it's sequels i guess i think so yeah a tv series so you're telling me the one the only movie series that's ever been made was a dog's journey

with dennis quaid dennis quaid who's been in literally every he does everything uh i think he lived here yeah i think he lives here he's the only actor I've ever heard my mom think is attractive. We were watching The Parent Trap, and she was like, that Dennis Quaid. Yeah. I was like, oh my gosh. Handsome guy. Yeah, is Dog's Journey?

Was it a... I don't know. I've heard of A Dog's Purpose. I've never heard of A Dog's Journey. Look up A Dog's Journey and see what it was. Kyle Dally. Kyle Dally. Or Killy Dally.

Killy Dally? I think it's Kylie. Kylie. Kylie Dally. Kylie Dally. I'm a dog groomer, and I get a lot of odd requests. When I first started, I had a customer schedule an appointment for a dog's baptism. I thought she was joking, but she was dead serious.

Also, I confirmed that the most common name is Bella. In the grooming world, there's a negative stigma with the name because most Bellas will try to bite you. Ooh. In the dog grooming world. I liked it. Well, it turns out A Dog's Journey is the sequel to A Dog's Purpose. Oh, okay. So it's all part of the same movie series so it probably was pretty big yeah yeah okay it's a it's a part of the series was it there what is the movie the movie is that you say a movie series i've never seen it like

that yeah it did strike me as weird movies yeah because it's not really like a it's not a sequel it's not a sequel so maybe it is a series it's a sequel to the 2017 film a dog's purpose oh it's the same dog i don't know if it's the same dog lost maybe it's bailey maybe it's on dennis quaid after a while if the dog keeps disappearing kyle when uh, I mean, having your dog baptized. That's good. I mean, I bet she did. She laughed.

She goes, I don't know. It's funny you go. I don't either. I'll get her ready. TR, when you were talking about animals not being native

to certain places, it made me think of my family's trip to puerto rico iguanas are not native there and they have no natural predators a tour guide told us to do our part and swerve our cars to hit the iguanas to help control the iguana population he also told us that years ago the government tried to convince people that iguanas tasted like chicken that did not work iguanas are everywhere i mean what about that you show up on your trip you go hey guys we'd love you just to run over all iguanas with your car i mean try swerve into traffic would you get into it about trying to hit them i don't know if i could

it feels weird when you're they're big they're like big you know if they're bugs i don't care but that's like a big thing like a big thing you want to feel it you got a face oh yeah they're big they're like big you know if they're bugs i don't care but that's like a big thing like a big thing you want to feel it you got a face oh yeah you're gonna feel it you're gonna hear it maybe that's happened tiger woods is correct what if that was the cause of it he was swerving two-headed in iguana yeah don't really yeah he's trying to help the environment that's what he should say. He goes, well, have you seen the iguana stuff going on over there? I was swerving to get it. Got a little out of control.

And then everyone's like, Puerto Rico, definitely back him. They'll be like, this guy's a hero. All right, game show comments. Ryan Carey Robb. Ryan Carey Robb. I wonder if that's the married. Or unless that's her. But there's a posture. I was going that's the married. Or unless that's her. But there's an apostrophe.

I was going to say the first name's hyphenated. Hyphenated. Ryan, Carrie. I almost said apostrophe. What's an apostrophe? That's at the... Half a quotation mark. I didn't use those.

Why would I say that? I didn't know why they would be used. To show possession. It shows possession. Well, it's one way, yeah. Like I own this. So it should be Ryan apostrophe Carrie. Like show Possession. It shows Possession. Well, it's one way, yeah. Like I own this. So it should be Ryan apostrophe Carrie, like he owns her. Ryan's Carrie.

Ryan's Carrie. Like Ruth's Chris Steakhouse. Yeah, like Ruth's Chris. Yeah, exactly like that. This is Carrie's YouTube face. This is her YouTube page. She's like, but Ryan, obviously I got to run stuff by him. Ryan's Carrie, Rob.

Ryan, yeah. The fact that Nate has taken a DNA test and found out that he is an Italian but chooses to trust Cousin Ronnie instead tells you everything you need to know about this podcast. I agree. He said, what do they know? Who's doing these DNA tests? I'm shipping them off to some who knows where.

Cousin Ronnie's more reliable. Yeah, I think so. He's lived it. He's been around almost one of the longest of the Bargettis right now. He's our leader. He would be the famous person in a golf scramble right there. He actually would because he coached a Vandy, and everybody knows him in Nashville.

Wow. So, yeah, you joke back right there. He actually would because he coached a Vandy and everybody knows him in Nashville. Wow. So, yeah, you joke backfire there. Andrew. Good job, Andrew. Justin Pruitt. He's a Tennessee coach, right? Isn't he Pruitt?

Jeremy Pruitt. Jeremy Pruitt. But this is his family. It's probably his brother. Pruitt's probably not a common name. Probably the most common. I can't believe you guys didn't even mention Supermarket Sweep. I remember watching this with my grandmother at school every day 20 years ago. I was the best eight-year-old at identifying name brand products as well as knowing the prices and how to map out a grocery store.

Now, there's been a reboot in season two with Leslie Jones. Do yourself a favor and watch every episode. I did watch that. I forgot about it, but we watched it growing up. Yeah. I guess that would be considered a game show.

Yeah. It was a game show. It was kind of a cool game show. Yeah, why would you think maybe not? Well, I haven't watched it, but it's a race. It's shot on location

at a grocery store, right? It's a set. Oh, it is? Okay. And it's a race and you're competing. What do a grocery store, right? It's a set. Oh, it is? Okay. And it's a race, and you're competing. What do you think? What do you think you thought it was? Most races.

I was watching people's best strategies. Well, most races that you're competing in aren't game shows. But you're buying groceries. And there's aspects you've got to pick out the right amount of pricing. I get that it's a little different. I'm just wondering why it doesn't fit your definition of a game show or why you would think it would. Well,

I guess it's because I haven't seen it. That would be my biggest. I thought it was shot on location at a grocery store with like, like different cameras, not like on a set with a host. Like it'd be just a show about like someone wanting to go, here's my strategy. And we would just watch people's strategies on how they shot.

They go, huh? That's good. Yeah. I like what she did there she went brad first hmm uh jesse rothacker dear nate aaron and bling bling my mom and her siblings were on family feud in the early 90s and my mom gave such a horrible answer that the judges actually stopped the show to help her. During the bonus round, one of the questions was, name something imported, and my mom answered birth control. The judge literally interrupted the host over the intercom to explain that they think my mom misunderstood one of the questions and let her take another stab at it. When they repeated, name something imported. More clearly, she got extremely embarrassed and explains, I thought you said name something important.

They won almost 50K, which sounds like a lot. It was divided between the five of them. Still 10K a lot. 10K. That's really funny, though. That is very funny. I would think that would almost be a famous clip of it, because it's very funny. Yeah, he said he couldn't find it online.

I think it still came out. Yeah. But he said he couldn't find it online. That's a shame. If that had happened in the Steve Harvey era, it would be on YouTube. Millions of years. They'd be famous. They could be a celebrity golf tournament.

I did that imported birth control. I remember that. I remember you. Yeah, I saw it like my aunt showed me. I was kind of busy then. Katie Parker. I was a of busy then. Katie Parker. I was a contestant on Wheel of Fortune. The taxes that are owed on game show winnings are done first in every state, but good old California.

So while some people do go broke from it, if you get cash, you are in the clear. The prizes are like you all agreed. A defiant burden if you don't win big enough cash-wise. They do prep you a ton, though. Is that not the way you say it? A definite burden. Oh.

I don't think it's a defiant. A burden is defiant. It does defy. No one likes a burden. Yeah, that's true. And so you're... Yeah, I think Nate was right on that one. Birth control.

Define... No, a definite, right? Yeah, definite. A definite burden if you don't win big enough cash-wise. They do prep you a ton, though, when you're signing all the paperwork and you spend all morning going over all the rules and prize information. You just don't want to walk out of there not ahead. Right.

I would almost be like, just let everybody do whatever. There's Katie, by the way. Yeah, Katie. Oh, really? Yeah. Oh, wow. Preschool teacher. Did she win?

Looks like she wins $100,000. Put a little pep in your step. She won $100,000? $100,000. How many views is that on YouTube? 145,000. 145,000. A little pep in your step. She won 100,000? $100,000. How many views is that on YouTube? 145,000. 145,000. Katie, go be a celebrity at a golf tournament.

I mean, you're... I might have you on the podcast. You're more famous than the two that I have. I've never been on TV. I need some heat. She's been on TV. I need some heat. She's been on... Y'all have been on local dish-only cable. The only TV that y'all have been on had multiple dashes in it.

4-1. 4-1. Who gets it? No, I wish it was 4-1. It was 4-3. Oh, man. Not 4-3. Yeah. Oh, man. Not even a one. Yeah.

So go to 4-1, head on up to 4-3. And you were on just straight four. Number four. Isn't Well, Fortunate on number 10 on NBC? No, it's syndicated. It's on ABC here. No, okay.

Number two here. Yeah. Or with... All right. Tom Clark. Three's a Crowd was a New Luet-style show from 1979 where the objective was to determine who knows a man better, his wife or his secretary.

That aged well, huh? Yeah. Almost every episode resulted in one or more of the husbands stumbling into admitting he was cheating on his wife with his secretary. Whoever had the most points at the end, the wives or the secretaries, would split $1,000. The show was pulled after a few months and a lot of outrage. It supposedly resulted in 12 divorces. Alex Foster.

Happy anniversary to Nate and Shaddy. Oh, because of the name. That's funny. Yeah. That's great. I know this is Tom Clark, but it's a comedian. Very funny. Man, that's funny, man.

Three's a crowd. They should do a documentary on that. Yeah, there's videos of this, and it's so weird. They'll answer questions, and then that one shot right there, the women are kind of fighting. Yeah. Right there. What are the kind of questions that they ask?

It was like favorite recipe or something. And the secretary said, making spaghetti on my body or something like that. Oh, really? Something like that. And then the wife, she gets upset. And I don't know how much of it staged. I don't know. This is like stays. Yeah, I would say. I don't know.

This is like what got Jerry Springer started. Yeah, it's like Family Feud meets Jerry Springer. Yeah. That's fun. You cover two comments in a row there? Oh, yeah. I almost read it like it was a letter. That's why I was so confused. You didn't jump right to the next comment. Oh, yeah. I almost read it like it was a letter. That's why I was so confused.

You didn't jump right to the next comment. Oh, yeah. No, I did. You thought it was like a sincerely. Yeah, I thought it was like a sincerely. I thought, well, that's weird. Why does the top say Tom Clark? I guess that's not his name.

And then I thought their name was Alex Foster. And he said, happy anniversary to Nate and Shaddy. And I read it as literally as sincerely. And I was pretty confused on it. And would just moved on though and that's what i said tom clark's a funny comedian so maybe that is tom but uh tom clark one of the first comedians ever met chicago uh super funny dude he's in california now uh but i remember he's the first one i first started like he came and talked to our class and i was like yeah so every time i see him i'm always like hey you know you're just always like blown away by the guys you first get to meet in comedy is he a long time boston comic uh

mate yeah i might be getting confused with someone else yeah mate is there no you're thinking uh tom dustin or or bob clark yeah that's tom clark i don't know i don't know he was in chicago it could have been i forget lenny clark maybe lenny clark from boston yeah there's tom he's got a bunch of conan stuff stand up stuff just look him up uh so uh yeah then alex foster your own special thing happy anniversary to nate and shatty thank you so much alex it is our anniversary and that's the gift i was giving her just your comment alex if you know what shatty is you got to listen episode one yeah people that's people's favorite thing is that in the best of uh i don't think I'm going to get the final cut.

That was one of the. We had some other hitters, man. That was a good one. Worf. People really liked your brother Worf. Yeah. That's a good one. We're going to post it all again on Instagram.

This has been a long one so far. All right. This week, we've got a guest. He's been on the road with me uh and hold on are y'all you better shoot him when he oh okay good uh all right so we got a guest this week uh and then uh he's been on the road with me excited to have him uh he's from oklahoma we're gonna talk about oklahoma uh so we're having him come in. Everybody, welcome Justin Smith.

Welcome, Justin. What a great shirt. I'm telling you, man. This is the way to do it. What's great about this shirt is they make them in all sizes. All sizes. Who knew? All sizes.

Cover the spectrum. What a spread. Yeah. For those listening, you want to describe what the shirt is? If you can't see and you're watching YouTube, and I don't know if you saw it with Nick's episode, but Nick wore a shirt with four mustaches on it. And then so Justin also was wearing a shirt with four mustaches.

He wore it on the bus, and I walked and saw it. I saw Travis just start laughing. And then so Justin also is wearing a shirt with four mustaches. He wore it on the bus, and I walked and saw it. I saw Travis just start laughing, and I was like, what are you laughing at? And he's just sitting there. And you don't have the other thing, do you? Oh, no, no. I left it. He has on the bus.

He also brought cortisone with him. I was just going to put it in the bathroom. Yeah. Just to bait him. That's great. I mean, so good. And when I saw it I was like

we gotta wear it on the podcast and then that's hilarious what's the thing about Nick is you get like once Nick gets

in your life you're like oh man I miss that dude all the time big time it's great any little thing

that happens anytime I mean anytime I smoke a cigar anytime I see a children's sword I'm always like I'm gonna FaceTime with Nick because we bought that sword for him to open the door

we told that story right like that i don't remember that i think so did we we had to i was just picturing him with the sword and that made me i feel like you told it yeah i can tell real fast and i don't know if it but on the bus uh the door to open the bus you just gotta press the door and it slides open. And so when he was late at night, he was going to get up to just go pee real fast. It's like three in the morning.

The front door is closed where Ricky, our bus driver, is driving. And then, so he walks through the door and he presses the door to close it behind him just because everybody's, that's where we're all sleeping. He goes to the bathroom

and then comes back out. Well, the door to go back in is higher. It's not as low. The knob is higher, so he can't get it. And he can't get to the bus door with Ricky. So nothing's funnier than me ever to picture Nick at 3 a.m. having to problem solve. How does he go to bed?

Does he just sleep on the couch and just be like, all right, I guess I'm sleeping out here now? And then so we get up the next morning, and there's stuff everywhere, like on the floor. And I was like, golly, I guess we swerved the bus last night. And Nick was like, yeah, I didn't feel it. And I was like, yeah, I don't know what's going on. And then Nick tells us the story. He goes, well, I got locked out last night.

I go, what'd you have to do? He goes, I had to climb up on that shelf and press that button. I go, well, that's where all the stuff was. And that's the stuff that's on the floor. He goes, I didn't do it. I go, I don't think there's any other way you would have felt a swerve like that. Like, you know. So, yes.

We all miss Nick. Do you have that custom made? No, I went to the big guy store. Yeah. And then I went to Spirit Halloween. Yeah. And that's where you grab mustaches like this. Okay.

I mean, are those the exact ones that he used? I mean, I think they look like exactly. They look exactly like it. Yeah. As soon as I saw them, I was like, oh, man, this is great. And you know what it's like to go to Spirit and put three packs of mustaches on the, when you already have a mustache, you're like, oh man, there's nothing but trouble happening right now. What's going on here,

buddy? You're like, I got four friends that want to be like me. Welcome to the show. Justin, me and Justin have been friends for a long time now. Yeah, man.

10 years or something. Yeah. Since the first time you came to Oklahoma. Oklahoma. Came to OKC. Big tornado happened that day. That's right. What took you? Tornado hunting? You saw an oil rig for the first time? Saw an oil rig for the first time you came to Oklahoma. Oklahoma. Came to OKC. Big tornado happened that day. That's right. What took you?

Tornado hunting and you saw an oil rig for the first time? Saw an oil rig for the first time. We just went out there and you dropped an envelope off or something. Yeah, well, that's back when I was working in the oil field. So I would drop filters off. Yeah. So I took him out there and he thought it was going to be like some- I thought it was going to be like a storm chaser.

Like a tour. Yeah. He thought it was going to be like Armageddon. Like they're going, you know, the opening scene where it's going to be like a storm chaser. Like a tour. Yeah. He thought it was going to be like Armageddon. Like they're going, you know, the opening scene where, you know, it's going to be, you know, Japanese businessmen. Hey, Harry! And then I just walk out there and get a guy to sign something. And he's like, that's it?

We drove an hour and a half. I was in the back of a truck going like this the whole time. And I'm just running an errand with you? Like I thought we were, you know. But, yeah, so we started becoming friends there, becoming great friends then. It comes out a lot with me. From Oklahoma, as you can see, big OSU fan.

That's kind of, you got to choose that in Oklahoma, right? Yeah, that's a big thing. It's a big choice. This is the blue-collar choice. Yes. This is the Vanderbilt. I was going to ask, because we talked about this one of the last episodes, but can you tell a lot about somebody by which team they choose?

Oh, of course. It's like if you live in New York, it's like Jets versus Giants. Yeah. Okay. Or like Yankees versus Mets. I'd imagine everybody that roots for them is from Oklahoma. Oh, yeah. And then people from Oklahoma or Texas.

You can do anybody. Anybody. People just like to win championships, basically. But it's going to mean more when they win it. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. So if I moved to Oklahoma, I would be an OSU fan. Right.

Because I would be – that's – I like Oklahoma too, though. But, I mean, it's – but if I had to choose, I think I'm going to go OSU because that's what I'm – I like the idea of, like, when you win, it means – Our culture has a mullet. Yeah. I'm working my way around the table. I mean, Aaron i'm converting aaron aaron's got okc you know okc dodgers hat yeah did you go to one of the games i went by the stadium there wasn't a game going on that park that i went by there that whole area of town's awesome man jim thorpe museum down there i saw

that jim thorpe's a famous oklahoman one of the one of the greatest one of the greatest athletes ever lived yeah he knows a lot about Oklahoma. I'm a big fan. He talks to us a lot. Did you go to OSU? No, no, no. I went to Christian College. Yeah.

So I went a different way. I wish I would have. Yeah. That would have been amazing. You ever do that thing where when you go to a college football game and you look at all the students and you're like, man, they're having so much much fun down there yeah and you try to bring some of that student section energy into like season ticket holders they're like hey can you sit down please yeah my feet hurt yeah i got gal yeah i got a lot of gouts down there you know yeah you get an age and you're like

that's yeah that's why you go over there don't come over here michigan's like that i'm in a michigan game and you thought it's going to be – their student section's wild, and the rest of it's kind of like, yo, sit down and watch the game. Like it's not – you think it's going to be routier than it is, and it's – the one game that I went to, so maybe it is other – I'm sure when they play Ohio State or Michigan State, it probably is. They played Iowa.

Awesome stadium. And then – but it was like a little – I was like, They play Ohio State or Michigan State. It probably is. They played Iowa. Awesome stadium. And then – but it was like a little – I was like, oh, y'all are – I mean, sold out to 107,000 people. Yeah. But everybody's kind of – which, I mean, I think I would like more now, to be honest. Like, I think I would enjoy that experience to be like, yeah, I want to go watch the game.

Oh, so then you were wanting everyone to stand up. I don't – I mean, I was younger. So I was probably 24, not 25 or something. You're basically the same age as those students. Yeah. And so you're thinking, like, is it going to be so rowdy? Are we going to be screaming at everybody? And you go there and you're like, no, everybody's like, you know,

they all probably went there, grew up there, and they're older, and they just want to sit and watch the game, which is probably the way it should be. I don't know. I don't like when a team does well for like a long time because then it is very much like that NFL atmosphere where it's like, hey, can you guys sit down? Like when Oklahoma State, we were bad for so long

and then all of a sudden we got like – Barry Sanders. Well, no. I mean, even after that, we got – it's kind of like we had these – Rashawn Woods, who was a very famous – he beat Oklahoma twice. But we went from being really bad when we had Les Miles,

and then all of a sudden Gundy comes along, changes the entire program, runs off a lot of riffraff, and then all of a sudden the team starts getting good. And now you have all these fans that are like, oh, my gosh, we're good now. So now everybody's into it. For a long time we were like, nah, we're going to mess it up. We're going to mess it up. One time we were playing University of Texas with Vince Young was playing. Yeah.

And we were up 21, which is crazy. Yeah. I mean, one of the greatest college football players of all time was on the other side. And we're just sitting there the whole time. I was like, man, we're just going to enjoy this. We're going to enjoy this because it's going to all go down. And then right before halftime, that famous clip of him

where he does the pump fake and you see our linebacker just fly through the screen and he runs 60 yards for a touchdown. That was the moment everybody in the stadium goes, you know, this was fun. This first half was a lot of fun. We're going to do a lot of sit in the second half. And what did they do? Did they blow you all out?

Oh, yeah. They killed us by like 20. Yeah. They went on and won. A lot of swings in Oklahoma State football. Who's the big donor in Oklahoma State? us by like 20. Yeah. Yeah. They went on to one. A lot of swings in Oklahoma State football. Who's the big donor in Oklahoma State? Boone Pickens. Yeah.

He passed away. T-Boone. Was it T-Boone Pickens? That's what's crazy is when you – because you just – in Oklahoma State, you're just like, oh, it's just some guy. And then you watch like The Wolf of Wall Street and the joke is like, ah, T-Boone Pickens just walked in my office. Yeah.

You know, they talk about him there, like American Psycho. Like he's – any Wall Street movie, they bring up, and you're like, you mean that guy? Yeah. That they call him, like, a corporate raider? And you're like, that, you mean the guy that has to, like. He was just from. He's so sweet looking. Oklahoma.

Yeah, he went to Oklahoma State. But just, like, a brilliant Wall Street dude. Yeah, and he made, like, tons of money. He was a guy that, he would go into corporations, basically take them over. I can't wait to hear the emails about me doing this thing. But he would take over business and then kind of sell off its assets. He was that guy. Yeah.

You know, whenever they point to a shipyard, it's like, you remember when I used to make ships? He was the guy that would come in and like, you know, sell everything. Yeah. He was that guy. Is it good or bad? I mean, depends on how you work. If you work in a shipyard, it wasn't great.

Great for Oklahoma State. Yeah. Yeah, OSU. That's right. We got a great stadium there. Yeah. Because it is a famous name. Yeah.

Oh, that's a great name. Yeah, T. Boone Pickens. It's an all-time great name. Yeah. T. Boone Pickens. Yeah. I just didn't like that. He did the thing where he would always say,

I'm the biggest Oklahoma State fan. And you're like, dude, you're sitting up in a box. Yeah, but he's giving the biggest Oklahoma State fan. And you're like, dude, you're sitting up in a box. Yeah, but he's giving the most money to them. I know, but dude, if I had the money, I'd give it. You think I wouldn't give it? I know, but he does have the money, and he is giving it. Percentage-wise, do you think you give as much as he does? I mean, I'm just going to tell you

something. If it came to eating Chipotle for the day, or making sure I got to go to an away game, or go see them play, I'm going to skip chipotle for the day yeah or making sure i got to go to like an away game yeah or go see them play i'm gonna skip chipotle but he's paying for the stadium right but i'm saying like percentage wise have you ever been away game oh i used to go all the time okay away games are my favorite you go to kansas state i mean like all there's all these schools that are amazing way what's your etiquette when you go to an away game do you wear all the oh yeah i wear i wear all the gear you You just don't care?

And you're respectful. I like giving people a piece of our culture. Because when I sit in the stadium, our family season tickets are right by where the visitors allotment. So all the players' family

that come to the games, they sit right next to us. So it's kind of cool to see, because we get to see their culture too. Kansas State is still one of my favorite Big 12 schools, because they're kind of like us, just in the north. And so they're very blue-collar people. When you go tailgate with them, there's a big pasture. And you just go and you just hang out in the pasture. And I'm like,

man, this is, I love this. It's awesome. It's great. Because everybody's cooking. If you, if you don't have anything,

like you just have drinks, you know, other teams will come and invite you over. You know, you don't get that in Norman, you know? Yeah. Well,

y'all, that's a big rivalry. Yeah. So that would be, y'all do that to Oklahoma fans or y'all treat them the same? I think we're, we're more cordial than they are. Yeah.

But they also have – I mean, when you – you know, you think you're better than everybody else because you got – I mean, they got the banners. They got the championships. I understand. You know, I understand that's the way you want to live your life. You want to be the Yankees. That's fine.

Would you rather win one national championship or beat Oklahoma? Excuse me. We have a national championship. Oh, yeah. Thank you very much. 1945. Oh, wow. That was a big year. Yeah. They didn't vote on it until five years ago. We got it.

But if you could pick right now, you beat Oklahoma for 20 straight years or win one national championship and then lose every year to Oklahoma. One national championship. Because I think that would do more for our school. Yeah.

I don't know. I. Yeah. And I, I, I don't know. Like I'm always like, I want to, I'm more now like I, cause everybody complains about bowl games. Now I love bowl games.

Cause like also my uncle was like a head football coach. So I know those players, you know, work hard all year and there's still kids. People don't understand. There's still, there's still kids. There's still there.

I mean, they're putting their bodies on the line for nothing. Yeah. And it's like they get those little packages when they go to like – they get like a hair dryer and like a PlayStation and all these things. That's a big spread. But there's all these things that they get, and they get to go on vacation, and their family gets to go on vacation.

Yeah. And it's like they work hard. Even if it's in Shreveport, Louisiana. I've been to there. It's still – The on vacation. Yeah. And it's like they work hard, even if it's in Shreveport, Louisiana. I've been to there. It's still. The Vandy. Yeah. The Vandy.

But even then. The Wade Wacker Bowl. No, NC State, I think. Yeah. I feel like it was NC State. We lost. It feels like a bad boy mower bowl, though, for sure, though. Yeah.

Yeah. Cajun Bowl or. Kraft Mac and Cheese sure. Yeah. Cajun Bowl? Kraft Mac and Cheese Bowl? No. I thought it was like the Shreveport Bowl or something. I'm telling you, that Cheez-It plug is great. Their whole thing is like, hey, listen, we know we're ridiculous, so here's what we're going to do.

We're going to put Cheez-Its in everything. So the Gatorade bath after is like Cheez-Its. Oh, really? Oh, my gosh. There's a picture of Gundy getting doused with Cheez-Its. Oh, really? Oh, my gosh. There's a picture of Gundy getting doused with Cheez-Its. Yeah. And then they have like Brandon Presley, who's one of our receivers. He caught three touchdown passes.

There's just him just eating a box of Cheez-Its after. Oh, it's, yeah, look at it. It's amazing. Oh, that's awesome. Yeah. That's really cool. And it looks like they mixed it with water. Oh, it's so good.

It's just wet Cheez-Its. Yeah. It's just great. It's great. It's my favorite thing. That is my fantasy by the way like if i ever if i ever get like a like a big special just have somebody come on and just dump cheeses on top of wet cheese yeah i love it we used to argue we could make

that happen i think we can make it very specific you just had to throw it out there i mean is there's no other there's no other Gatorade bath thing. Like, getting dumped in sports is, like, the coolest thing to me. Yeah. And there's no, like, for a coach even. There's nothing like that. I mean, basketball, they do, like, the bottle thing when somebody comes in. I get it. Sports are great.

You want to do it after just a special. Yeah. I mean, even a Tuesday. Wake up that way. I'll wake up that way. Of course.'ll wake up that way you just have a weird fantasy yeah do you have a good set it was fine i didn't kill i didn't bomb just one of those that's like yeah they're set so you're like i think they were they wouldn't complain about me you know all right cheese it is we just dump them on you you just get famous enough you're just like hey

listen uh don't ever go don't ever go to cleveland yeah because uh i put in my rider that i need a cheese at bath immediately when i come off stage and guess who didn't have a cheese at bath ready yeah they looked at me like i was crazy you're the new uh green m&ms that's right when your rider gets to go i would like uh cheese it's poured on me afterwards and they're like and not just one and not just one guy i need yeah a person on each side to really get the lift. I want to celebrate it. Wet Cheez-Its. Wet Cheez-Its.

We used to debate, not debate, but we would discuss who's more likely to happen. You get to the level where you could be a celebrity guest picker on game day or Vanderbilt getting good enough that they would be the place on game day. But they played on game day. They did years ago but after that.

Now. Yeah, you're way ahead of Vanderbilt right now. Yeah. I mean, you're going at least the right direction. Yeah, going the right direction. Could I be, if they go to Vanderbilt, would I be big enough that they would? There's so many country singers here, though.

But are any of them outspoken, ardent Vanderbilt fans? No. You're listed on Wikipedia as one of Vanderbilt's great athletes. Oh, really? Yeah. No. It says notable Vanderbilt fans. You're listed on Wikipedia as one of Vanderbilt's great athletes. Oh, really? Yeah. No. It says notable Vanderbilt players or athletes, and you're one of them that's listed on there.

Yeah. I mean, who makes the sign after they have like a great – every late night set, you do the thing. Yeah, that's crazy. I think it's the list. Go to the – Well, there's a separate – I'll find it. Yeah, it was the second one.

Yeah, that's crazy one Yeah That's crazy Yeah I would love to be A game day picker I mean they came We beat Auburn When they came That was amazing It was so crazy

When they came to get You're just like I can't believe they're here Yeah I mean And we won We won Yep

We won They were going to come One other time Well known American Football athletes Include former students Nate Bargetts Right ahead of Jay Cts right ahead of jay

cullen right ahead of jay if i would have known this i would have shown jake i'm gonna i we i'm gonna we i'm gonna get it and we're gonna text it to jay i'm above jay i mean i know all like oh man yeah, dude. Whoever did that is awesome. I mean, that's so great. That's so funny. Vanderbilt's first football team. I was at that game. Yeah.

Thought I'd beat Nate. Brian didn't want them to start football because I don't agree with it. It's a good thing going here. I don't think we should start a new thing. And then, even back then, I was like, can everyone just sit down? Yeah. Why do we have to stand? Score that game was two to three.

Two to three. Oh, my gosh. If that. What's the first thing about Oklahoma? It's a Choctaw word. Oklahoma means people in Huma, which translates as red. So it's red people. Red people.

We talked about that on the bus. Oh, you did? Yeah. It's not offensive. I don't, I mean, it's a native language. Okay. I think you should change it, but. Yeah, you're calling people red, you call them red people?

That's where that name comes from? Yeah, but it was the Choctaw that came up with it. Yeah, it's our, I mean, like. I mean, I'm not saying I'm offended. That's the whole thing is like, it's kind of a thing where it's like, oh, this is what we, this is our thing. Yeah, it's our, I mean like. I mean, I'm not saying I'm offended. That's the whole thing is like, it's kind of a thing where it's like, oh, this is what we, this is our thing. Yeah, yeah, I agree.

I'm not, I don't, obviously I don't ever care. But I think it's just very funny to be like, it is like, what does it mean? This is the problem. Somebody that like, people that live there are like, no, no, this is our hair. And then, go ahead, do it. I think you should call it the football club.

That's what I think. Football club. Football team or whatever yeah has there been any talk seriously about someone wanting to change the name no they don't even they don't even know they don't know until until somebody uh from seattle that looks like aaron oddly enough whereas no kc had to be cool i think you should i think you should change this yeah you're like okay you think we should change our so you want You're like, oh, okay. You think we should change our... So you want to see...

Is that what you... Well, we did purple people eaters. We got rid of that. And now your whole state is named after red people. That's what they call them. Oklahoma and Texas are separated by the Red River. Man, you're just obsessed with the color, huh? Why can't this river be just normal?

Yeah. Just be a regular... He's just out there living his life, man. Yeah. And y'all got to give with the color. Why can't this river be just normal? Yeah. Just be a regular. He's just out there living his life, man. Yeah. And y'all got to give him a color. Is it red? Yeah. Well, no.

That red river is all just because Oklahoma is filled with red dirt. Oh, yeah. So that's why even like the music, the country, famous country music, it's kind of like edgy, is called red dirt music. It's because even in Stillwater, like all the earth is red it's like clay so red is also a big part of our culture because of that's that that's the way our soil looks yeah so i know it's also a farming so everybody knows what i mean it just it just means kind of it's yeah being red dirt is like another way saying blue collar is basically what it is but it's a big part of our culture i think i like red dirt more than blue collar yeah

red dirt sounds kind of cool. Yeah. I think I want to be red dirt. Yeah. Just start saying it. Yeah. Can I? Yeah, of course.

I'll give you permission. I don't think. Just this once though. Well, we are red people. Yeah. You call yourself an okie? I don't. Gotta think about it.

Sometimes, yeah. When Herbstreet says okie yeah i don't like it yeah yeah but like when somebody else like if nate called me an okie i'm cool like yeah when somebody else it's country like it's it's not like it's not poking fun where's he from he from ohio yeah but he's like he's very much like he used to call us okie state yeah you're like i don't you know nobody calls it that i don't like i don't You're like, I don't, you're not. Nobody calls it that. I don't like that. Yeah.

Yeah, I don't. The boy can't even handle an earthquake. Ooh. You know? You ever see that photo of him? Yeah. There's a famous photo. He's on the air, and there's an earthquake happens in Stillwater when he's calling a

game, and it looks like, it's like, it's the, see that? There it is right there. That's his face. Yeah. That's a highly educated man. That's his reaction when there was chaos right there i'm in a ground shaking uh but i do love that's very funny we put him on we put him on the projector that's that's our that's our oh well i love that great i mean i love it that you're like, what a loser. An earthquake? You can't take a little earth moving around, surprisingly. I mean, the first time I ever felt an earthquake,

if anybody's never felt one. I've never felt one. It's wild, dude. It's the most, like, you have no control. There's nowhere you can go. Like, you're just on the ground and you're like i can't go do y'all get a lot of them uh well we have a lot in the last uh 15 years yeah because of fracking yeah just because of is it because of fracking i don't even know what fracking is

it's essentially when you drill in the ground they shoot water into the ground so that it makes a well more productive basically okay so instead of having to drill 15 holes you drill one like an old well yeah oh or you can you can do a bunch of like it makes the hole come up it's it's it's a whole process but yeah basically it's it's creating more of it's more friction in the ground and so people are you for fracking or against fracking i mean isn't that a big political thing? I think so. It's kind of very funny to be like, that's like,

that guy hates fracking. And you're like, are you kidding me right now? And you get a big fracking conversation. From 2014 to 2017, Oklahoma exceeded California in earthquakes magnitude three or larger. Wow.

My only earthquake experience was in Oklahoma. Yeah? Oh, really? I did a terrible casino gig in Miami Oh my gosh, that place is I got food poisoning at that place so bad Oh my gosh

You know the gig he's talking about? Yeah, I did, because I did it I did it a long time ago It's a terrible gig, but that morning My hotel earthquake happened I was so excited, I was like That's the best part of this whole weekend It was a very small one I was like, I's the best part of this whole weekend. Yeah. It was a very small one.

Yeah. I was like, I think that was an earthquake. And I turned on my news. How bad was the show that the earthquake was the highlight of the trip? Yeah.

Pretty bad. I called you that weekend to tell you. Yeah. It was the same day your commercial came out for AT&T. Oh, yeah, yeah. And we were talking on the phone about it. And I was like,

I just felt an earthquake. I was so excited. Yeah. The gig was terrible. Oh, yeah. Really, really, yeah. And we were talking on the phone about it. I was like, I just felt an earthquake. I was so excited. The gig was terrible. Really, really, really bad. I felt it in California. I mean, there was one I felt. I felt them now. I maybe felt two or three.

I felt the one in New York, which was crazy. We were living in New York, and you just don't think they have them. And it shook. Laura was working. That's when she had a real job. She made all the money. And I was at home playing video games. And she's up in one of the big buildings.

And so she was up at the top when it happened. And then I remember I felt it. And I thought, I looked out and there was a dump truck driving by. So I go, was that a dump truck? I go, it did that. that i think i felt it again and i was like this is this is how neighbors don't talk in new york is we i we all walked out to the everybody has the same reaction we all walk out to the our patios in the front everybody's looking at everybody nobody talks really like we all just had an earthquake no

one goes you feel that you did that we all just stared at each other and then just walked back in our homes. You wouldn't give a pretty crazy, huh? Something like that? No one did. Or what was that? Yeah, no one did. I remember seeing all of us. There was, I mean, honestly, eight people come out and we just went back in.

Almost like we looked at each other and said, I don't want to do this, man. And then we went back in. Almost like we looked at each other and said, I don't want to do this, man. And then we went back in. That Miami, is that how you say it? Miami? Miami. Miami. Spelled like Miami.

It doesn't matter. There was a plug up front near the stage, and a woman got up during the show, went up there, charged her phone. I do remember this. And then later went back up and checked it during the show i'm on stage to see what messages she'd missed yeah that was kind of gig it was yeah riveting stuff they make you they were like you were bringing riveting yeah she goes i'm gonna go check my i always think the confidence of that is crazy yeah to be like how would you go oh there's a plug people are obsessed with plugs they want them so bad and

you watch them just hunt look at the airport at the airport it's just crazy a guy's laying under a trash can and you'd be like what's he doing people no one cares he goes there's a plug and everybody goes oh i understand that and you're like how do you get your life together and if your phone dies it dies and move on get one little extra charger i guess if you're if it's that bad but what are you doing it's 9 a.m and you're already had had that kind of day that you're like a fiend trying to find you know i mean just like you're under people you don't there's no regard to any human being they They're just sitting there, just to crawl under you. And everybody kind of lets it happen because they, I understand.

You lift your feet. You lift your feet for me. They go, I understand. Been there, buddy. I've been there, buddy. You got to look for that plug and they're hunting it like a. Have you ever seen the plug stickers that people put on the airports? No.

They're just stickers that look like an outlet. Oh, yeah. Oh, just to mess with people? Yeah. They just put them on the wall yeah and i've seen them a couple times i'm just like that's i just yeah it makes my day yeah people just go up and hit it and so my favorite is when i when they have the outlet in the chair yeah and i'm sitting there and i just got my huge hamstring yeah with my with my extra satchel just sitting here yeah and they just gotta uh like they're trying to decide if they're gonna ask me to move or not because they can't be like plugging in it's like dude i i can't even i can't get my own yeah you got a mirror i can maybe like well people won't go out of their way that's the thing like if i need like if you need a plug and this is this is i know people always say my

rules that i have made up for it i think everybody should follow i understand that so do whatever you want uh but they i don't like when they don't care like to me it's like you need a plug at least go try to find an empty spot but people will i mean people have like been like can i use that plug that you're standing in front of and then they just put it in there and you want to go like well i'm maybe i'm eating right here if you're at the airport and just eat you know and there's those plugs that are kind of everywhere and but we're all sitting up there and somebody can have that plug i'm just and they would leave their phone up there to charge it you're like well you got a problem yeah like how do you not go walk go walk somewhere go walk. There's got to be an empty seat or next to a wall that's not, you know, but I want to be right here.

I can only be right here. All right. It sounds like y'all left. No, no. People listening at home, they're like, I think you're ready to walk down. I agree with you. Oklahoma became a state in 1907. A little too soon, I thought.

We could have used a little maturity. I think you little. We little gonna let that wine bottle sit in that cellar for a little bit yeah it's pretty crazy there's people alive that when they were born oklahoma was in a state yeah yeah only about 10 of them but there are some yeah i mean i just but i also love like people don't i mean oklahoma is great because like for the longest time like we've had so many people it's like we've been a life raft for so many groups of people where you have, you know, for the longest time, Native people spent, you know, a long time in Oklahoma because it was Indian territory.

And then it was kind of like for a while it was outlaw territory. So everybody would rob in the areas and then they would hide out in Oklahoma. And then when the land run happened, you had all these immigrants from the east coast that didn't have anything that's why there's you know irish and czechos like in my hometown there's czechoslovakian people like it is a huge gathering every year like it's a huge thing so you have all these different groups of you know like eastern european people all over oklahoma is it a life raft for the outlaws? Yeah.

That was my little league football team was named the outlaws. Well, it's funny. Your other two groups are people that needed a life raft, and the other group, all the people that killed people. They'd come here and hang out at Oklahoma because we were cool with it. I mean, cattle rustling. Nobody has to get hurt there. Still some cattle.

Just taking somebody's livelihood and selling them to somebody else go to Oklahoma they clearly don't care they'll let you do whatever just don't steal here go steal from everybody else that was just always my favorite word growing up was rustling rustling some cattle it's called the Sooner State because people try to sneak

into Oklahoma and make land claims sooner than they were allowed that's during the land run do you guys know the land run. Oh, yeah. So, you guys know the land run, right? No. Do you know? Is it the premise of Far and Away?

I mean, you mean the actual thing that Far and Away is based on? He's like, you know the thing of Far and Away? That was real? I don't know. So, basically what they did was they wanted to give Oklahoma away to people. Yeah. So, what they did was is they had the army set up all the way around the state and they divided up into a bunch of like large acre plots yeah and they had

everybody line up and the army fired off a cannon at noon and you just went and the whole thing was you tried to run to get a stake and then you had to go claim the land that's the whole thing so and then you had to go claim the land that's the whole thing so Sooners which is with University of Oklahoma you know the other school yeah their whole thing is there were people that tried to sneak across the land like the before the time yeah and then they got the plots early that was the whole thing and so Sooners is what they called those people and how would they go you just put it in the land and you're like, how do you know what? They had different checkpoints set up. So you would just go and claim it and then it was your land.

And it'd be like, you do this. And you're like, so I got from that cone to that cone. In the movie, Far and Away, it's Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. He has the fastest horse. So he outruns some people to get to the land. But I think her parents sneak on, right? And plant a flag. Yeah, because they were running the horse around like it was tired.

Yeah. Yeah. Sooners. Oh, it's the bad people. Yeah, so what we're saying is the University of Oklahoma. Okay. They are cheaters. The University of Oklahoma is named after cheaters.

Yeah. Well, you're talking to Aaron Land. Not a lot of people listen. So I don't know if maybe that's going to get out that much. Did you know that was happening the whole time? No, that was great. That was great. Oklahoma has been described as the world's prison capital, 1, great. That was great. Oklahoma has been described as the world's prison capital.

1,079 of every 100,000 residents have been imprisoned. Highest incarceration rate of any state, higher than any incarceration state rate of any country in the world. Right.

Outlaws. Yeah, outlaws. So because of that, that's why you're never, but you've been in jail? Not yet. Not yet. I jail not yet not yet I like not yet

you don't have to say no I don't know I can't say no because you don't know might be who knows man who knows that's what you do

you're rolling the dice yeah I mean I think I got the facial hair for it I'm just working one thing at a time yeah we worked out today

I'm on my way I mean yeah I think you'd get caught quit but I mean I could maybe get some toothbrush tattoos yeah you know just

baby steps yeah I think they'd walk in you'd be sitting there and they'd be like alright we gotta go caught quit but i mean i can maybe get some toothbrush tattoos we can you know just baby steps yeah i think they'd walk in you'd be sitting there and they'd be like all right we gotta go to jail there's gotta be an app for that like you know like 30 like 30 days to a marathon couch marathon yeah with a couch to jail there's got to be an app for that oh yeah you just go to jail ready be a good tv show i think the couch is going to jail because you're not going to get away, is what I've been saying for three jokes now. So the couch is couch to freedom. Right. Because you're going to jail.

You're going to go in there, and then it's going to be like, we've got to run. And then it's like, they're going to just go after the other people and be able to come back and get you. We'll swing back around. He'll still be here. There you go. Just let him. Should I get this one? He goes, I would get him. We'll swing back around. He'll still be here. There you go. Just let him.

Should I get this one? He goes, I would get him. That's just these other guys. Those guys are what we call runners. Yeah. We did. Just go on without me. We worked out today.

Yeah. So we got after it. He pulled more weight than I did. Yeah. I think it hurt more than me. That's my whole life, basically. Yeah. more weight than I did. Yeah. I think it hurt more than me. That's my whole life, basically. Yeah. That is.

Yeah. Good or bad. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you could be. You could be robbing some banks. Yeah. I had a friend that robbed a bank.

Really? Yeah. That's cool. Yeah. It was a weird thing. How'd he do it? That's crazy, because wore like a nun's habit from like he watched the movie the town yeah which is uh i mean it's kind of crazy that he was like

he he robbed a local bank from our hometown yeah and he'd like drove his own car so everybody and then he drove back to like his house like he just didn't like it's like he watched this movie where they're like they're like third generation bandits they have false dna switch cars a whole plan they have automatic weapons you know they have they do everything right and he watched the car he saw the costume he's like i'm just gonna wing it yeah after that like i'm just gonna i'm just gonna figure it out on the fly after that is he in jail he was yeah he's out now and then he got out like they just came to his house and said yeah they just they just knocked on the door and he answered.

And he's like, oh, I should throw this mask away. Yeah. Oops, am I still wearing this? Yeah. Did you rob a bank today? He's like, do you think I robbed a bank today?

Does it look like I robbed a bank? Yeah. Do you guys have any footage of anybody robbing a bank today? Yeah, you actually do. With that... He told me... Did he get money?

I mean, yeah. He tried to deposit it in his account at that bank. Did you get your deposit slip? He robbed and then went to the, and then he went and just stood in the back of the line with the same gun, and waited, and he goes, I'd like to deposit this money. Checking, please. Checking, please. I had a cigar with him when he got out, and he told me, he goes,

it's really kind of funny because now like every time there's a bank robbery in the city i have to immediately think about what my alibi is yeah because he's got like a parole officer and all this he's like so he's like i'm just i'm always like like because like as soon as there's a bank robbery he says he gets a phone call from his oh really from his guy so yeah he's gotta make sure that he's like oh here from his guy. So he's got to make sure that he's like, oh, here I am. This is me. He's always going to be around people. He's posting on Instagram, hey, this is me.

Sitting here working out. Yeah. Not robbing a bank. Did he get any money? Like, how much did he rob? Did he pass a note or have a gun? No, I think he went in with just like a pistol. Oh.

And then do you know how much money he got? I don't think he had time to count it, honestly. I mean, they caught him within a day. Like, it wasn't. I mean, it was. Super quick. Yeah. Yeah, you can't go back home.

Like, we literally heard it. We heard about it happening. And then we saw it was him. Oh, y'all put it together. It was like bang, bang. No, I mean, like, it kind of. I hadn't'all put it together. It was like bang, bang. No, I mean like it kind of – I hadn't talked to people in my high school for a long time and then it just made the rounds.

Yeah. You're like, oh, wow. Yeah. It's like I know I haven't talked to you in 10 years because I didn't even go to my high school reunion. Yeah. You're like, hey, I haven't talked to you in 10 years, but did you see this?

Why didn't you go to the reunion? I just – I don't know. How many kids went to your high school? My class was like 500. That's pretty big i just don't i if it's that big i get it like i'm i'm such a small class i was 56 or 7 and so i still talk to most of them and then i love a i love a reunion i love it but i have a small class i could see 500 i could see you're like there's no point to it like why like you had so many people could see you're like, there's no point to it. Like, you had so many people there that you're like, whoever you're talking to is like, you're like, yeah, I still talk to the people that I want to talk to.

Right. I kind of understand that. I really just didn't because I was doing this, but I wasn't where I wanted to be. And I felt kind of like, so like people knew that I was doing it, but I wasn't like, you know, I hadn't, I hadn't, I mean, like I did live with DePaulo, but I mean, I went to the whitest high school on the planet. So they don't even know. I mean, they're like, I have no idea, you know, except for one stoner kid. I had math with one kid in this remedial math class. And he's the guy that told me about Mitch Hedberg, which was amazing.

He was the coolest dude in our high school. Yeah, and he probably keeps up with you still and just being like, see how you're doing. I hope so. Yeah, I hope so. Maybe he's not a fan. I mean, maybe not. Could be in jail.

Maybe rob something. What's next? The Bridge Creek Moore Tornado of 1999 was the fastest wind speed in the world ever clocked. Over 300 miles an hour. Wow. Pretty fast. Yep. That's an EF6. Yeah. Ooh, what's the highest? I think 5's

the highest, but... That one went 6, so it's not the highest. 5's not the highest. Well, I was joking about the 6, but it's the fastest ever. I mean, when that happened, that one... There's been two that have gone through more that are like bananas. Yeah. Well, that one, when that one there's been two that have gone through more that are like bananas well that one when I was there

and I left that morning I kind of think that's the one that's the one it wasn't 99 though or maybe it was yeah there was one in 2000

the one that I mean Kevin Durant still there like those guys were still at OKC and they and so I was going I remember I flew home that morning and it came through Still there. Yeah. Like, those guys were still at OKC, and they...

And so I was going... I remember I flew home that morning, and it came through the town that morning. Because it went through Norman when we were there. Right. And it was, like, crazy what it did to Norman. And then there was the other town that it crushed. Moore. Moore.

Moore. And then that was the one that was, like, crazy. And that was, yeah, the news lady we saw. Yeah. Oh, you made a whole joke. Yeah. I still think that was the one that was like crazy. And that was, yeah, the news lady we saw. Rob Markman Yeah, you made a whole joke. I still think that's the funniest. One of the funniest riffs is still my favorite because in Oklahoma, whenever there's a tornado, they have all these people that are on the ground.

And there's like 10 of them. And so what the guy does is he literally just bounces from people to people. And there's these famous storm chasers. There's a guy named Val that's super famous and uh they'll throw them to these people and this one she's now like a weather woman now i forget what station she's on but she would like vows like very calm like all right so we're picking up wind speed over here we're starting to see a little hail and then all of a sudden she'd be like hey can i cut in real quick i need to cut in real quick yeah there's lots of like she would cut in with nothing to say.

And then he was just like, okay, thanks, Jenny. We're going to go back to Val. Val. And he goes, yeah, still here. Wind speeds have still been the same. Just interrupting everybody. Just like, guys, can I – you just don't know what's going on here. You're like, door just opened on its own.

Shut back. And you go, okay. And I just remember, because we were coming back from the rig, and Nate was just losing it in the backseat. Yeah. He was like, why is this, like, you're like, it was so funny. She just went, and they're like. Oh, that was the same day y'all drove out?

Yeah. Yeah. And then we were watching. I think we were listening to the radio. And then they were, like, playing one of their things. The problem is, is that we went to see the oil rig in eastern Oklahoma, and tornadoes kind of start in the northwest, and they kind of follow the highway, the interstate. So they go kind of from Kansas, and they follow Elk City, Clinton.

Then they hit Yukon, which is where I'm from, and then Oklahoma City, and they go down. So basically they start. That's the creepiest thing. When I worked at Woolfield, you would drive down the highway, and you'd be coming back to town about 3 o'clock, and you'd see all the Weather Channel trucks and storm chasers. I mean, the guys look like they're going to battle because they got these big armored trucks and stuff

with all the satellites on top. I want to do that. If someone listens to to this i just mentioned about the golf thing and we've got we've got i've got we've got all your emails about golf and me wanting like i do want to go play with them it's kind of hard right now i got to play sawgrass because it's sawgrass but you know there's a couple unique ones that i'll just be like but i've got uh this is separate but i did want to let people know i do see them i'm not trying to ignore i've got uh this is separate but i did want to let people know i do see them i'm not trying to ignore any of them uh there was a lot of them and i do want to go play but it's it's just we have two shows uh i'm doing eight shows a week it's like i've got to

also like be like i can't like it just takes too much time so sometimes we have one show i can usually do it but you know it's very hard but i hard. But if I can make it work, I'll come play. But same way with Storm Troop Chasing. I want to go do Storm Chasing. I've loved it. And I love watching it. I would love to go see these tornadoes. I mean, it would be the best.

Yeah, you can all go. We'll all go. We'll do a Storm Chasing episode. That's the new Krispy Kreme challenge. That's the new Krispy Kreme challenge. We've got to go out there. I mean, Aaron looks like he fits the part of a tornado.

Can I say, on our weather episode, we had an argument over what is scarier, a tornado or a hurricane. And I believe I took the position that a hurricane is scarier. And they both disagree with me. And I was in Oklahoma City,

and a fan of the podcast confronted me about it politely but said your position is idiotic yeah basically it was just like yeah i live in oklahoma i know about tornadoes they are horrifying yeah okay and they come out of nowhere and they can hit anybody hurricanes get a two-week notice yeah yeah i mean hurricanes like call you you can take the window up. Yeah. They call you. They give you a shout-out. They send a couple emails out.

Now, if you live in an island somewhere... Tape the window up? Yeah, tape the window up. You could put your house on the market. On a hurricane, yeah. You tape the windows up so when the wind

starts kind of bashing it, if it shatters, it doesn't go all over your stuff. Tape the windows up. I love it. That's a hurricane. Just tape the window up. Yeah, tape the windows up. What are you complaining about? Just tape the window up. Come on, hurricane just tape the window tape the windows what

are you complaining about just tape the window come on there's a fun time it's a fun family thing to do yeah hurricanes are 10 feet of water coming through yeah yeah if you stay in the house it's going to be crazy but hurricanes are just like and look i know some people don't get out there's a lot of stuff like that but there usually, it doesn't just appear out of nowhere. I mean, a tornado at night is maybe the scariest thing you ever experienced in your life. When we had one go through here, because you can't see it. A lady not too far from here, her whole house got destroyed. She got killed.

Doesn't even know. It's like, at least during the day, you can kind of be like, there it is or something. But I mean, it just, at least during the day you kind of be like there it is or something but i mean it just yeah at night it just comes but the weather that produces tornadoes doesn't come out of nowhere like you know that that's coming but this tornado does like the hurricane they're telling you it's happening now there'll be like five four three two now hurricane like you don't just go here's the hurricane coming and then it it disappears, and then it's over New Orleans. And you're like, golly, where'd it go? We went underwater.

And he's like, I've been hiding for a couple weeks. Tornado, you're like, the setting is there. Maybe it's going to happen. Maybe it's not going to happen. I mean, I could tell you some tornado horror stories. I mean, I kind of feel like that's Bates territory. I don't want to get too sad. Bad news, Bates. Bad news, Bates. I got a lot of it. I'm sure we got some stats horror stories. I mean, I've thought, I kind of feel like that's Bates territory. I don't want to get too sad. Bad news, Bates.

Bad news, Bates. I got a lot of them. I'm sure we got some stats coming up. No, no, I'm not even sad. Just, I mean, just personal things. I grew up in Alabama. We had tornadoes.

No, you're not better than them. No, I'm not. Don't try to be. I'm not claiming that. I'm trying to claim that you went through it. We had a hard time. No, I mean,

Alabama does have tornadoes. Not as much as we do. We probably do the most. Yeah, you have those. Yeah. You have ones had oklahoma tornadoes uh no democratic presidential candidate has won a single county in the state since 2000 it's pretty rare that's always the funny that's always the funniest thing i used to do a thing about it but i it was literally like, you know what it's like to have your state turn red before the polls even – I talked about how other states are still counting votes,

and we're just like – it's like you're counting votes for 15 minutes. Like, all right, guys, we're good. We're good. We're done. It's red people. We're done. Yeah. Shut it down.

They all really stick to the red thing. Yeah. We got to keep it there. Yeah. There's down. They all really stick to the red thing. Yeah. We got to keep it there. Yeah. There's a county in Oklahoma. It's the only county in the nation that borders four states. Oh.

Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas. Wow. It's crazy. All right. Shove this in my eye. I should know. Geography's usually you'll, you don't go for that. It's interesting. It's like, go for that it's interesting it's like

I mean it's a county so like it's not a state it's like well alright there's a part of Oklahoma that borders four states I mean I thought

he was going to come with me with fast food facts where it's like Sonic is from that like you're like oh man let's talk about chili cheese dogs you know I can talk about

Brahms ice cream all day like you do all these and you're like and he's like the county the county he's a big county guy i wanted to ease into it he likes counties yeah yeah who doesn't he thinks all the counties should break up in america the uh center of the universe as it's commonly known oklahoma is in downtown tulsa i don't we'll be there. You can go visit? It's not literally the center of the universe. It's a mysterious acoustic phenomenon. If you stand in the middle of the circle and make a noise,

the sound is echoed back several times louder than it was made. I'm going to play the video you sent me here. Yeah. You're standing in the middle of a circle that's caused by concrete benches You gotta hear it No there's not

I mean this is That's good We're good That's what it sounds like Yeah okay I mean That's kind of cool We're having local news

Do you know Have you heard of that? The center of the universe? Look, I think it's very cool. I'm going to... Tulsa's famous for a few things. That's not one of them. I'm going to go for...

We'll take Harper to there. I'll show her. I'll be in Tulsa this weekend, which is kind of crazy to do this. It makes sense why you're here. But it's like we're being in Springfield, OKC, Tulsa, and then OKC again. And most are sold out i think late the added shows are have some tickets but they uh i'll go where i'll go show arper this i think i'm not saying

it's not a cool thing i don't know if we need to watch a four minute video we're not gonna watch the whole thing i would have maybe sped it up to like right when the. I just wanted to hear what it sounded like. Yeah. Well, I mean, how long. It took us. Yeah, 41 seconds, which is a long time. Nah, I started at 15 seconds in. Whatever you took, it felt longer than 40 seconds.

And then it just, you know. I mean, most shows, I feel like when you play a sound, they play the sound. You go, let's play that sound. They don't go, let's have a little buildup to it. You got to give it some context, man. You can't just jump in. But we just did a county thing that brought just the earth down.

I mean, people started nodding off and sliding into a rail. And then we go, let's turn it back up, man. Can we get it going? Here's a local news. We're going to explain it all. All right, I'm going to try this one. Lottie Williams from Tulsa, Oklahoma, is the only person who's ever been hit with space junk. In 1997, she was on a walk and was hit by a six-inch long piece of a rocket that fell from the sky.

Does it always just come down anywhere on Earth? Usually it's in the ocean. Yeah. But in this case, it hit her. What? I mean, you know the odds of that? It was like one in something trillion. Yeah.

It's much more greater than people on Earth. Did she die? No, it didn't even hurt her. Oh, really? Just hit her in the shoulder. Yeah. How big was it? Six inches?

Is that what I said? Yeah, six inch long piece of a a rock did she get to keep it how does it not hurt you that's just grazed like a squirrel so it's a piece of a ship though yeah it's a piece of a rocket i mean how did but how do you know how do you know somebody just didn't throw like a screw over the top of a building well i mean i think it landed there and then they looked at it and could tell it was part of a rocket yeah how confident do you have tell it was part of a rocket. How confident do you have to be to see, like, a screw fall and be like, oh, I should go get this tested? I should go start asking questions. I'll be honest with you, if you ever get hit by a screw walking a dog outside,

just a common rule should be go get that screw tested. I don't know where you're getting hit by screws so much outside. I'm just saying, if I get hit by a screw, I just don't walk my dog in that neighborhood anymore. Yeah, you just- That's how I go. That's all your screw experiences? You go, guys, I get hit by screws every day,

and I've never tested one like a loser outside. I mean, in my neighborhood in New York that I lived in, I lived in a Dominican neighborhood, and if they ever made fun of me, I just walked a different way. Whenever you walk past a barbershop, they would do me. Oh really oh yeah oh that's funny and i just like well i'm just gonna i'm just gonna walk like i'm just gonna take a different train

home for a while i like that you didn't want to say they would like act like you no they would they would put a they would take like a one of the kids pillows that they sit on the barbershop and they'd put it in their stomach it's funny it's yeah it's mean but it's funny though that you like were whispering it and you're like well you're the one that we wouldn't want to hear it yeah and you're the one and you're like they would do i don't want to say this but they would make fun of me and you go i think that whisper quiet you don't want to hear it you don't want to hurt aaron's feelings yeah yeah i mean it's got to be people by the way it's got to be blowing people's minds I think that whispered quieter if you don't want to hear it. He didn't want to hurt Aaron's feelings. By the way, this has got to be blowing people's minds that Aaron and I are sitting together. Oh, that is true.

By the way. Yeah. I've been tagged in multiple posts on Instagram of pictures of Justin that said Aaron killed it tonight at the show. It's like the evolution of man going across here. Yeah. That's always a... No one knows about that. I feel like he wrote that last night and thought, I got to get evolution of man in there somehow.

And then he goes, oh, here's your time. Here's your time, breakfast. And then he does it there. You don't know the evolution of man? Yeah, but it's not. It doesn't work there. You talking about them two? It's growing bigger.

No, that's not. That doesn't work at all. talking about them two? It's growing bigger. No, that's not. That doesn't work at all. Okay. Huh? All right. There's ways to make it work, but it's like it's not that. Okay. You gave it a go.

All right. I don't think he would be laughing that hard if it was a killer. Oklahoma City Thunder relocated in 2008 yeah he loved it that's right um know some other names they're considered calling it why are they called the thunder uh i think it's because it has to do with like thundering well the thunder like weather yeah and then also whenever like a herd of buffalo were running. Yeah. It's a thunder. It sounds like thunder. Like Marshall thundering herd.

So basically like why you would think that. So it's like multiple things. Yeah. I don't even know why you're asking this question. That's funny. Yeah. You're the one with the paper. You look at it.

It's right there. I was trying to tell you about it. Why do they call them the eagles? Well, there's eagles. And we just went with that. Yeah. I thought Thunder would be just because of the thunder in the sky. Well, you would have been wrong.

I mean, it's kind of that. It's the Buffalo thing, right? It's only the Buffalo thing? I don't know. That's why I was asking Justin. He said both. All right. The New Orleans Hornets relocated to Oklahoma City

after Hurricane Katrina got to watch Chris Paul play that was awesome and then he came back these are the facts you found yeah it's not like Oklahoma stuff

like more like I feel like there's there's tons of stuff everything I've said is Oklahoma the claiming your own land is kind of the land run is crazy The land run is crazy Yeah

Land run I thought Did you hear me mention that? Huh? Did you hear me mention that? I lost it I thought we were watching a news Story on it

One of the Top minor league ballparks in the country Is the Bricktown Ballpark Yeah Yeah Okay It's great It is

It is awesome Did we go eat at that restaurant? Is that Oklahoma City? Which one? Oh the Mickey Mantle Steakhouse yeah oh man we had i still yeah i'll go there when we go to okc it's still i still think about it i'm like it's still the best steak i've never had a really good that good wagyu there and i was like this is this is the best steak i've ever had and i've even had wagyu at other places and i still go it's not better than that mickey mantel restaurant well i always like i always like taking people to eat in oklahoma This is the best steak I've ever had. And I've even had Wagyu at other places, and I still go. It's not better than that Mickey Mantle restaurant.

Well, I always like taking people to eat in Oklahoma because they always think, even like I took you to Empire, the pizza place. Yeah. And you were like, dude, I was in New York for a while. And I go, dude, trust me. Because they have this pink sauce. Empire pizza is amazing. Brahms ice cream.

They have this frozen yogurt that's better than most ice cream anywhere. And you tell people this stuff, and they're just like, like oh you're just justin took me to a mexican place oh alfredos alfredos was so good i took the other comic to it the next day did not invite me to that though literally literally blocks away yeah what are you talking about you didn't text him the next day and say justin we're gonna go eat there again? Come on, man. Why not? Well, it was a spur-of-the-moment thing. It was like, you want to go get lunch? Yeah, Justin just showed me this great spot.

Let's just go there again. The spur-of-the-moment thing is a tornado. It's not a lunch that everybody has to eat every day. That's not a spur-of-the-moment thing. Yeah, how do they get to their table like this? Yeah, I wouldn't give them a fist bump after this. I'll tell you that right now. I'm going to earn one between now and the end of the show.

You better get cracking. Yeah, you better get cracking because it's… Concrete wall around me. Just play more of her. How many views does that have on YouTube? 468,000. Yeah. They could shorten it.

They could do the thing. Boise City, Oklahoma is the only city in the U.S. to be bombed during World War II. Y'all got space junk and that's crazy. World War II,

the only city that gets bombed and the only person that's been hit by space junk. And it was a mistake. They didn't mean to do it. They saw the city lights and they thought they were the target

they were trying to hit. Who hit it? It was a mistake. They didn't mean to do it. They saw the city lights and they thought they were the target they were trying to hit. Who? Who hit it? It was a B-17 bomber training. The U.S. Oh, yeah. Oh, it was friendly fire? Yeah.

Yeah, because I was about to say, I don't think they were shooting bombs at us over here. They were doing target practice and they got disoriented and dropped it on the town square. Were they... But they never fought here, right? It was a training session. Yeah. And they dropped a real bomb? Mm-hmm.

Why didn't they just not have bombs on there? Well, they were... Maybe it wasn't like the full detonated bomb, but I think they were dropping on a target to see what it would do. Their goal was just dropping on a target to practice. And so they thought it was the fake town that they built. They saw the city lights and thought it was the target lights because they were doing it in the middle of the night, and they accidentally dropped it on this town.

I mean, that would be funny. I mean, I don't know if you've ever been to Boy City before, but you're sitting there just like, man, they really built this fake town up. Look at that McDonald's. They even got cars lined up twice. World War II. Yeah. I mean, it's just you would think like, yeah, it is kind of crazy.

It was practice bombs with four pounds of dynamite and 90 pounds of sand. Oh. Okay. So it's a little bit better. Not to do some damage, but not to obliterate a town. Yeah. I mean, I've done as much damage after Chipotle. Yeah.

I mean, it's just. It's one that you fly away quickly and goes, get out of here. Yeah, they did a 50th anniversary thing. The pilots did not want to come back because they were embarrassed. Yeah. What? Yeah. The 50th anniversary.

The 50th anniversary. The worst mistake of our lives. At the time, y'all bombed or. Are they mad about it or they like it now uh i might like this town if they like it i think i like this town did he no one died or anything no one died yeah i think i like this town that's like you know what i'm fine with it now and then that's funny they go doing a 50th anniversary and the pilots are like i mean it's embarrassing like what you know i mean people probably love it they're like oh man look you know they dropped the what they ruined kevin's bathtub and then they built us a pool yeah what if you got a public pool

you just go to those two pilots all the time you see them you're like what happened man he's like you know like the guy who runs the marathon and seinfeld john paul john paul john paul john paul yeah yeah what happened we talked in the queues why did you you finish the alarm clock cause you just wanna know like what he goes we thought I don't know

that's crazy alright alright is that it I'm rolling well no I'm just getting warmed up

oh good I was just impressed I finally got one that you like yeah Town of Beaver

is the cow chip throwing capital of the world alright what's cow chip doing capital of the world all right cow chips when uh when a cow uh does his business in the field and then the sun dries it and so you can pick it up and it's like a perfect frisbee oh you can throw and there's an actual

like competition yeah to do it i mean a lot of times look when you're in your country, you make your own fun. So a lot of kids will go up, but you can play like dodgeball with cow chips. People do it all the time. Yeah, that sounds good. Ooh, God, what's happening? Maybe ship them some iPhones over there. The movie Footloose is loosely based on a town in Elmore City, Oklahoma. Oh, what's that?

They banned dancing. Never seen that movie. Me either. Yeah. I know of it. Patrick Swayze? No. Kevin Bacon.

Oh. I thought it was Patrick Swayze too. What's he in? Dirty Dancing. Dirty Dancing. I don't think I've seen that either. Or Roadhouse. I think I've seen Roadhouse.

Or Ghost. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All right. I think that's probably it roadhouse. Or ghost. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All right. I think that's probably it. That's probably it? I mean, I got more.

You want to do one more? Yeah. Find another one. Let's try to end on. How many more do you have? I mean, I've got a bunch, but I've already tried some that didn't work, so I'm a little gun shy. Oklahoma City is the softball center of the world.

That's true. They, I mean, have an amazing arena. People come from all over. You can't get a hotel room downtown because of all the... College World Series is there? Yeah. College World Series, the Olympics. There are so many visors that invade when that stadium is being kicked off.

It's crazy. The Joe Exotic Zoo, it was in Wynwood, Oklahoma. Yeah, you know, I thought it was Florida the whole time. Well, Carol Baskin was in Florida. Yeah, yeah. You don't think Oklahoma. You think, like, Carol Baskin was in Florida, and you kind of just think it's Florida.

And then I just didn't think about it, you know? And then I kind of thought that. Then you're like, oh, he's in Oklahoma. in Oklahoma he's running for governor of Oklahoma yeah yeah I mean I remember being in the oil field and seeing those billboards and you're just like did y'all know him I'm like not I mean not be everybody knew I mean like you knew when you saw the billboards yeah what is that and you look him up you're like oh my gosh did you vote for him for governor no I mean I'm no there was like I was not like so there's believe it or not in Oklahoma there were multiple drive Did you vote for him for governor? No. I mean, no. There was like, I was not like, so there's, believe it or not, in Oklahoma, there were multiple drive-thru zoos.

Yeah. And I was not a Joe Exotic drive-thru zoo. We had a thing called Arbuckle's Wilderness. So that was my zoo of choice. Yeah. To go drive-thru. So you voted for him. Yeah. Yeah, the guy from Arbuckle.

Yeah. Arbuckle. for him. Yeah. Yeah, that guy from Arbuckle. Yeah. Arbuckle. The buck. Yeah. World's first parking meter was installed in Oklahoma City. Wow. Shopping carts too.

Yeah. Oh, wow. There's a woman that owns a restaurant in Norman. Yeah. And I would promote the restaurant. Yeah. I don't like her very much.

Oh, yeah. But her family lineage is shopping carts. would promote the restaurant yeah i don't i don't like her very much oh yeah but she uh her her she her family lineage is maybe she would help you maybe she'll like you no no no why doesn't she like you oh well i just i don't like her very much why because just because you're gonna start a thing she wears a big pillow when you know so when so there was a thing a long time ago uh where uh they were doing when i was still in oklahoma there was there was a festival that was gonna allow a comic to come to the festival and i'm still like i mean i'm i have new york on the horizon so i want to start meeting people everywhere i can i'm traveling i'm literally

driving to kansas city to Improv to do spots. Like I'm driving everywhere to try to get spots. And so I'm like, oh, this is a good, it was a good festival. And so I'm like, I'm going to try for this spot. So the whole thing was, is that this restaurant would do like a, it was like an open mic thing, but it was like, they would try to, they would have people like you could win a spot and it was like all expenses the the this lady would pay for your hotel airfare i mean festivals that you don't make a ton of money so like this is huge right

and so i'm like and it was this lady it was this woman so her thing was she watched open mics every day for a month yeah and the best five from the open mics would go to like one show at the end, and then she would pick whoever it was. And at that time, I was one of the better. I was like, I could legit win this. Yeah. And so the first, and I was on the road for two of the weeks, so I only had two shots to do this. The first, and I was on the road for two of the weeks, so I only had two shots to do this. The first time I did it, she didn't even come in because you just kind of draw spots.

She didn't even come in and see my set. Then I'm like, so I'm mad about that. Then I had to wait until the third week. Then during my set again, and of course I didn't get on there. Then the third week comes, and then it's like, this is it it this is my last shot and she's in the back of the room finally and then i go up on stage and i start doing it and i do my first like i don't even do like a joke i do like a riff and it gets like a good pop which an open mic yes i'm bananas if you can do that and i look in the back of the room, and she's talking to somebody else. She talked during my whole set, and as soon as I got in, she came back.

And then, of course, I did not even get – I didn't even make the top five in two open mics. And it was – I'm still not happy about it. I'm still just – and, of course, somebody else that she liked got – and it was just a real frustrating thing because like I was legit trying to do it and I was doing everything I could. And then people were just like, you know, like they didn't care. And it was like, I treated, I treated comedy very professionally for like a long time. Yeah.

And that woman that is of shopping cart money. That just ran a restaurant. Yeah. Well, she's, her family, she got the money to run a restaurant because her family invented the shopping cart. Has the patent. Nothing to do with comedy. Yeah. Now. Yeah. Well, she's her family. She got the money to run a restaurant because her family invented the shopping cart. Has nothing to do with comedy. Yeah. Now.

Yeah. And then now she's trying to sit there and throw things around. That's cool. Well, at least you let it go. Yeah. We can go for two more hours if you want to do another episode. Episodes about restaurant owners that have done me wrong.
