Ladies and gentlemen, 6'7", 310-pound left tackle for the Tennessee Titans, Taylor Luan. Thank you. Thank you, folks. Electro-stack to be here. Thank you for having me, Pat and the boys. I'm excited.

Hey, we're excited to have you. I reached out to you this morning because I know you're down to Pro Bowl. I should come on. You made some time. How has the Pro Bowl been? This isn't your first time down there, but what is it like each year? Are you excited to be among the NFL's greats? Yeah, I literally tell

everybody all the time, this is the best week in the NFL. It beats everything. I haven't been to the Super Bowl yet, so I'll tell you when that happens, but right now, the Super Bowl is the single best time for any player. When I hear that guys just don't go just because, I get upset.

Unless you're Tom Brady. You do whatever you want, Tom Brady. I honestly believe these guys come in here, they have no ego, they just relax, have a good time, everyone's excited to see each other. You swap ghost stories, football stories, everything, and you make some friends along the way.

That's all that really matters. Okay. Who is somebody that you have befriended at a Pro Bowl that you did not expect? I'll give mine. J.J. Watts sat next to me in the locker room of the Pro Bowl. He had no clue about me at all before the Pro Bowl thing. By the end of it, I feel like we are on good terms. If we see each other, there's a full dap up. We are friends. Nobody would have guessed me

and J.J. Watt become friends there. Also, Martellus Bennett, another guy, Marty B., and I became friends. It's a cool... Yeah, no big deal. How about you? Anybody that you made friends that you would have never guessed? Well, I've never been a Watt family fan,

so I didn't know what to expect yesterday. I actually sat next to T.J. Watt during the team welcome. You know the little introduction thing where it's five minutes and the coaches make a bunch of bad jokes? Do you believe? You go to the welcoming party? So I'm sitting there, Alejandro Villanueva, grabs him, grabs me, pushes us together,

and we did the awkward, hey, how you doing kind of thing. And then fast forward 15, 20 minutes and he's not half bad. I think I might have been wrong about the Watt family this whole time. So the jury's still out on JJ. But I think TJ, he's not half bad. He's not half bad. You know, I can understand the Watt family hates. I think they could come off as a group of hardos, basically,

a group of hardos. That might be the perfect thing to call them. But after you meet them, you realize that they're just incredibly – like, JJ was incredibly nice to me. He didn't have to be, and I'm happy to hear TJ is the same. That opening speech for the Pro Bowl, when I went, it was in Arizona, and they gave us a speech about prostitutes being in town, so watch yourself because the Super Bowl was there the week later.

Warren Sapp got busted. I guess he wasn't at the opening meeting. Those opening Pro Bowl meetings are something that are truly special. Oh, my gosh. Yeah, that happens. I think a couple years back, I'm sitting in a meeting and we get pulled up before we went to practice

if that's what you want to call it. And they're like, hey, just want you to know some guy NFL player. He's not a pro bowler, but he got roofied and got a bunch of jewelry stolen. And I'm looking around like, who is this guy? What happened?

I never found out who it was, but, I mean, that stuff's out there. They're out to get you. And it's terrifying, to be honest. I fear for my life every single day. Okay, you mocked the practices because they were a joke whenever I was there as well. This upcoming game, normally the people that are trying to get the MVP in the truck are DNs. So at left tackle, you're going to have to actually play. How do you handle the Pro Bowl?

Do you make agreements before plays, before the game? How do you go about handling the whole situation? So in the season, what I do is I try to figure out as much as I can about the opponent I'm playing and then use that. I figure out his mom's name. Does he have siblings? What can I use to get him going a little bit?

In the Pro Bowl, it is the exact opposite. I'm shaking hands, kissing babies. How you doing? What's your favorite meal? Do you want me to grab you something? I give him a wink and I'm like, hey bud, do you want, what do you like? I give him like a, hey, it's a pass on this one and then you really figure out

what these guys are about. But there's always a couple of guys that go super hard. First person that really comes to mind, Michael Bennett, absolutely goes hard in the paint every year. But, yeah, there's Diaz, man. They want that. It's not a truck anymore. It's a Hyundai Genesis.

So I don't know. I don't think any of those guys are driving a Hyundai Genesis. It's car of the year. Hey, what a dream, though, for offensive linemen for the NFL to make that announcement. Like, the winner of the MVP of the Pro Bowl will be getting a Hyundai Genesis. Every D lineman is like, I don't want a fucking Hyundai Genesis. Good for you. You honestly sit there and you feel the room just go, ah, Hyundai Genesis.

You know what I'm saying like you don't get anything like you don't get like any extra money or anything you get i mean you might get a cool trophy but i don't see this to me this week is all about just having a good time this it's that's the only thing that matters to me you do some media stuff hit universal studios you hit disney world with with everybody. It's a blast. Okay, so you try to learn everybody's name, their family's name, their mom's name. You talk an excessive amount of shit during the game and also after the game.

That situation with you and Josh Norman is one of my favorite situations in the history of football. I don't know how you maintained your cool through that whole thing. The whole situation was I didn't go over there out of my own egotistical attitude. I went over there because I thought that he was trying to

hurt Derrick Henry during the four-minute drill. If you watch one of the plays, we actually run to the left, which is a very smart coaching call. And we go, we get five, six yards. And Josh Norman hits the ground with him or whatever and starts pulling his leg and gator rolling the whole thing.

So I went over there after the game, gave him a little shit, shot his little bow and arrow at him, the cute little celebration that he does. And to me, that was it. It was done. You know what I'm saying? Like, Derek didn't get hurt. Hey, don't do that type of thing.

We moved on. And now he's jumping on calling and all this different stuff, talking about me. And, you know, Pat, if he wants to get a hold of me, it's easy to get my number. If you're in the NFL long enough, you can get anybody's phone number. If he wants to give me a call, have a conversation, you know, meet up, we'll play checkers, and we'll figure the whole thing out.

I don't care. But, like, it's gotten out of hand at this point. I feel like he needs to move on. Well, so I respect the fact you went over there and let him know, like, hey, that type of shit ain't going to fly. I respect that's your job as an offensive lineman. Whenever I tweeted out how savage it was, I mean, you did the violin thing. You are savage on the football field.

It's awesome. When I tweeted that out, though, we had a bunch of people. I had a bunch of people respond saying, like, if Taylor wanted to kill him, he could kill him. And then you get people underneath like, oh, just because he's big, he can fight. I'm like, no, just because he's a fucking NFL offensive lineman is probably why he can fight.

I'm just guessing there. NFL offensive lineman, has this always been the goal, the dream? Have you been a huge guy your whole entire life? Yeah, I've always like, I was like a tall, lanky cat. You know what I'm saying? Like I've always been like super tall tall the tallest kid in my class but i was always like that kind of i looked like mike from monsters inc you know i'm saying circular body skinny arms skinny legs like there was there was not a lot like you know like 13 year old 14 15 year old the one wasn't slaying

by any means but uh you know i had my senior year things started to function better and uh it became an office alignment literally did not play office line from my senior year, things started to function better, and I became an offensive lineman. I literally did not play offensive lineman my senior year. And it took off. I got a scholarship offer from Utah State. I looked at my coach. I was like, this means I'm going to the NFL. That's not how it works.

You don't get it. You don't get it, coach. And that was kind of it. But, yeah, I was kind of the weight bloomer. I had that, like, shaggy hair with the curly, the pig curls in the front. And I wore like right in front of my eyes. I wore like metal militia t-shirts. I was,

I was a kid, not gonna lie. I would honestly, I would go to like, I would go dirt bike. I would roll over to like Target and they'd be like half smoke cigarettes. I think it was like super cool. Like smoke a half smoke cigarette,

like 13, 14 years old. Looking back on it, obviously not, not the best life choices, Pat, but we're here now and that's all that matters. Hey, listen, if it wasn't for those choices, you wouldn't be the man you are today.

So it's a part of the story, and the Taylor LeJuan story is one where you go to Tennessee. Tennessee is always talked about as being good, but then nothing ever really happens. Vrabel comes in there as a coach. All of a sudden there's an entire new mentality. You get rich, have one of the most electric boss hog press conferences after getting

rich of all time, and then become a leader of that team. The Titans are trending in the right direction. It has to feel good after all these years. It definitely feels good. I mean, first year going 2-14, but next year going 3-13. Michael Ruse was the left tackle before me. I really called him.

I was like, dude, how did you do this for 10 years? This is out of hand. Two years in the NFL, won five games. This is ridiculous. Not to mention the nicest guy in the world, Andrew Luck. We literally haven't beat him. He's 11-0 now against us. It's a tough world out there, man,

but I think we're definitely trending in the right direction. What has Vrabel done? What has Vrabel done to change that team? It seems like he's just a not a hard-nosed, but he's like a relatable hard-nosed OG type of guy in the locker room. Now granted, he probably had to win you over

to win over the whole locker room, but he definitely has you on his side. It seems like the team is behind him and rally behind him. That's a huge deal. Yeah, no doubt about it. I think when he plays 14 years in the leagues you already respect that enough but like he's young and he comes in he wears this this stupid chest pad to give him padding and he literally runs he runs drills with me like he's a kid i want you to base block me i'm like well get get your face out of it and he's like you

know he's hard oh he's like oh i'm good you just put you put your face and i'll get out of the way i block this guy i do individual drills with him get out of the way. I drive block this guy. I do individual duels with him sometimes instead of the online coach, and I'm hurting a little bit worse than I'm with the whole boys doing the whole line with them. The guy, I mean, he's got an intensity about him, but he brought the whole coaching staff in that way. You know, the cornerback coach, I swear to God,

his veins are made of coffee. Like, I have not seen that man with that coffee in the fans since we've met. It's hard to bear. Hey, I have not seen that name without a coffee in the chances we've met. It's hard to be here. Hey, I'll tell you what. That Dolphins offensive line coach might be traveling to further places in the National. You never know. You never know. No doubt.

Hey, I mean, everyone keeps a pick-me-up, right? Everyone has a fight. You go for it, bud. Hey, I'm not a judgmental fella. You know what I'm saying? You like a little nose candy? It's each his own. Okay. You're a Michigan man.

Obviously a great school, kind of in a questionable time with their football team. But the guy who is going to be known as the greatest football player of all time is from Michigan. He's playing in a rather large game next Sunday in Atlanta. How do you see the Super Bowl going from your professional standpoint? Man, that's a tough one. That's a hard question. I think anybody who is in the right frame of mind knows you never bet against Brady, ever.

And then I hear him talking. I hear this story come out. He pulled the team together and said that the reason why we're going to win on Sunday is because I'm the baddest motherfucker on the earth. On the planet! As soon as I heard that, as soon as

somebody told me that story, I didn't even fact check it. I said, it's over. I literally sat back in my chair. It's wild. I'm a huge fan of the left tackle for the Rams. Huge fan of Andrew Whitworth. He is an unbelievable dude. He's an awesome guy. You guys should have him on if you haven't already.

He's amazing, but man, you can't bet against Brady. I don't want to gamble that much. I don't have a bookie, but if I did, I'd put it all on Brady every single time. I'm going TD12. As soon as I heard that I'm the baddest motherfucker on the planet, I bet on the Patriots three times. Max

bet three times on them. What else are you going to do? Literally every time. Even at the Super Bowl when it was like two minutes left in the fourth when they were playing the Eagles, I was like, yeah, they got it. I mean, they didn't go there. You know what I'm saying? Like never count on Brady.

And like people kind of question it. And then ever since that 28-3 thing with the Falcons went down, it's just ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous. And it's different, because you play against amazing football players all the time. When we play the Patriots, and Tom walks on the field, it's like he's gliding.

It's like he's on a magic, a lattice magic carpet coming onto the field. You're like, oh my God. These guys are the most poised in the entire world. What is going on? It's wild. Let alone Bill Belichick standing on the sideline. I was like, Ieline with a good football. Where's the same hoodie?

Dude, I think I still think he was sticking it to the NFL when he wore his hat, the tassel cap. He wore the new era thing

straight with the hood up on top, not the Patriots and not the NFL logo. I honestly, Bill Belichick doesn't do anything by accident. I think that was on purpose.

I think people should investigate a little bit. Last question for you, Taylor. The room has a couple questions for you. The boys got a couple questions for you. I love it. I love the boys. Hey, for the boys, you guys picked that up. I like what you guys are doing over there.

I'm begging it. Who's the hardest defensive end pass rusher that you've gone against where you had to with i know you probably talk shit in every game but who's somebody by the end of it you were like god damn this guy everything they say about this guy has lived up to the hype oh that's a tough one because say it. I'm good at football. I'm just kidding. I'm not totally. There's,

there's, there's good pass rushers in the league, but there's like, like five, I'd say like maybe the 10, probably more like in the seven days. They're just like truly, but those cool little Mac guys, those vaudevillers hate to say it.

JJ Watson there too. But I think one guy I played against and I was like, yeah, this dude's a real deal, is last year we played the Raiders. I think it was the first game of the year, and we played Khalil Mack. The dude's just, he just gets it, man. Like, he's so good.

His balance is insane. Like, he's so good at turning the corner. His inside move, he's got so much power. There's really no way to really defend him. Those guys you talk about, you can't beat him. You can beat him. It's super cliche. This guy's fat.

Him and Vaughn, man. Those two guys, they're electric. They're really, really good at football. It's always fun, but it's tough. Do you talk shit to them? You,

you, like, I never like go into a game. Like, I'm going to say this term. I'm going to say that. Like, what I do is like,

I'll lay like a, I'll plant a seed. Like I'll, I'll, I'll pass block a guy. I'll get, I'll have a really good rep against them. I'll be like,

yeah, that's good. When you want it, did it, but I'll kind of like jog off. And if he wants to stir the pot back, that's when it's on. It is. It's a sure back and forth the entire game.

But if he doesn't really say it, he's not. Where the fuck are you, man? Hey, I think Khalil Mack and Von Miller are beating the fuck out of your service right now. You're dropping out like Jason Witten every fifth word. Oh, really? Yeah. Just right now. All right.

Am I better now? I literally haven't moved. This might be your guys' fault. It might be. All right, the boys have some questions for you, Taylor. Hey, Taylor, I have a feeling this guy is you, but outside of you, who lights up the locker room, the entertainer, the team?

Always, never fails to crack you and everybody else up. Dude, Will Compton is, he's easily like the funniest dude on the team, hands down. Like if you guys have a chance to follow him on social media, like it's pure comedy every single time. He's always like that classical one white guy, one defensive white guy on the team. And he just, like, he brings the whole team together.

Like, he is one of those dudes that just keep all the boys going all the time. He's hilarious, man. He's fun to be around. Nice. I just followed him. I literally just followed him. I'm excited to see him. That's a solid recommendation.

Digsy. He's at the Pro Bowl with me right now. And he's going to be like, I'm looking at the phone and be like, yo, Pat Mack, we just followed him. Oh, yeah. Taylor, I just want to let you know, I saw the Titans put out a tweet of you wearing this gray hat, and I

needed to have it. So I drove four hours down to Nashville with a picture of you and went into a hat store. And I walked in the store and I showed them a picture of this hat. They're like, oh yeah, that's Taylor. It's Taylor's and Taylor's hat. And they gave me the exact same hat. You made him a hat guy. It's like the gray Stetson. It's like a

flat brim and it has a nice... Oh, buddy. Oh yeah. You're slaying it. You're slaying it out there. Where are you guys at? Indiana? Where are you guys at? Yeah, Indianapolis. I don't think I've ever seen a guy wear a Stetson flat-brimmed hat up there, but you stick out like a sore thumb there.

Oh, yeah, yeah. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. But my question is, what's our next hat? Hey, you missed 100% of the shots you don't take, and I'm proud. Went to Nashville, got you some style points, came back up, and now it's hitting the trend. Oh, yeah, yeah. I wear it probably three or four times a week to be honest with you. Do you really? Yeah.

He'll go scarf with that fucking hat. Go ahead, go ahead. No, I said he'll go scarf with that hat here in India. It's like a whole new fucking ball game here in Indianapolis. How many compliments do you get on that thing? There's a lot of compliments. There's also a lot of not compliments.

Yeah, it's up in the air. It's up in the air. Not everybody's going to love what you do. I'll go and we'll go to games, away games or whatever. And every single outfit, I always put that hat on. And my wife is like, literally, you're killing the hat. I'm obsessed with the damn thing. I get a very similar reaction from the girlfriend.

But you know what? I don't care. I don't care. It's great. I love it, man. I love obsessed with the damn thing. I get a very similar reaction from the girlfriend, but you know what? I don't care. I don't care. It's great. I love it, man. I love it. Be you. I love it. I feel like in 2019, we're going to try to be similar or not. I'm glad there's somebody like you out there taking some liberties. It's because of you. I think you should take credit for what

he's doing, too. You're a trendsetter all of a sudden. Nick Morata, next guy. Taylor, everyone, everyone I think on the planet has seen the clip of you and the rest of the boys at the Nashville Predators game chugging beers in the playoffs in the stands there. Were you always a hockey guy or did you get into it because of Nashville and the success they've

had? My dad's from Minnesota and so he played hockey growing up. My brother played juniors for hockey and I was like some trash eight-year-old hockey player. I was actually terrible. But, like, I always grew up watching hockey like that. And I know, like, my wife's from Canada.

Her brother played juniors hockey. Like, it's been around me my entire life. And when we had the opportunity to go up there, I remember the first time we did it before, like, I brought a catfish. And all the boys were like, I don't know, man. Should we do this? Should we not? And then finally I was like, we're doing this, boys were like, I don't know, man. Should we do this? Should we not? And then finally I was like, we're doing this, boys.

We're going to get up there and have beers, and we're having a good time with it. That's what we're doing. So everybody jumped on board, and it was awesome. It was a good time. They brought us back a second time. Then I think we did the catfish beer luge thing, which was just disgusting. I think I was sick for two and a half weeks. 1,000% worth it.

It was absolutely worth it. And the next one, if they bring us back one more time, I'm not going to tell you what I'm going to do, but I have an idea that I think will just top everything. You got a little something for the Predator fanhood out there. I'm excited for it. Marcus Mariota. Everything's premeditated.

Everything is premeditated everything is premeditated marcus mariotta i don't i think the first time i saw it he wasn't i don't know if he was excited that you guys were just slamming beers or he wasn't a part of it now it seems as if he's like all in with it it was there a little bit of hesitancy from marcus because he is the face of the franchise at the time and you you guys are shirtless, slamming beers in the stands. The best thing, like, that guy wakes up in the morning, 3.30. No question. Like, absolutely 3.30.

The mountain of a man. His shoulders touch both sides of the room. You have the worst phone in history of phones. You got the new Razr? You have the worst phone in history of phones. You got the new Razr? You have the worst? Did we do this again? Yeah, you said Marcus woke up at 3.30 and then complete silence. Give me a...

Mm-hmm. Yeah. Now you guys are gone. Huh? We weren't talking. Are we back? We're here. What?

I hope to God we're not live. We are. I was excited to hear what you were saying there, though, and you dropped out. Marcus wakes up at 3.30? No, quit in Spain. Oh. And he's just a big man.

He thought it was the greatest idea in the world. Yeah, you go for it. You do it. Yeah, the first time we, what happened was, the Pred. So we're like, yeah, you go for it, Q. Do it. Yeah, the first time we, what happened was, the Predators wanted Marcus to come, and Marcus was like, bring the O-line too and all.

And then the O-line, we kind of just stole the show. But like, Marcus, he was definitely like that. He's like, he's the DD. He definitely watches over us. He's got like that, that you don't want to disappoint here.

And I think the first time he was a little like, okay, what is going on? What do we get ourselves into? And then he's been awesome. He's bought in. He's had some ideas. He throws some stuff out at me. So it was Marcus is all about it. He's definitely for the boys. Alright, so this is what I think we do. I think everybody

takes their shirts off this time and you drink beer off of the fish. I think that's like what Marcus is saying to the audience. All right, next time. You guys did okay that last time, but I'm thinking next time we're going to drink beer off a fucking fish. It's awesome. You guys are crushing it out there.

Best hockey fan is probably out there right now. This next guy's name is Gorman. He's very old. He used to live in Nashville. Yeah, and when he was on my show, I first went at my old show. His second week in Chippewa. I didn't hear it.

That's a weird question. Sorry, just go ahead. You wouldn't understand anything. No, no, no. And stand still. Quit pacing, all right? Stand still for this question. I'm sitting in the same chair.

I have a vote. Okay, good. All right. Anyway, Matt LaFleur. A lot of people were shocked. Oh, great question. Matt LaFleur. A lot of people were shocked. Oh, great question. Matt LaFleur. A lot of people were shocked.

Like, wait, wait, wait, wait. They didn't exactly line up the scoreboard. The Titans, good team and everything. What's your take on that when they're handpicking your OC to be head coach of the Green Bay Packers? Matt LaFleur. I think every assistant coach wants to be at the same point in their life, so I can't be mad at the guy for leaving.

But, yeah, I was a little disappointed. A little disappointed when he headed out the door. I think we had a good thing going. But when I found out that we got Arthur Smith for our OC, dude, I'm fired up. That guy is – he should be on the show. He is an absolute – he's a bro's bro's bro. He's the man.

Oh, I like a bro's bro's bro's for the lads is what the Brits call that. Zito is one of the most intelligent humans on earth. He has a question. Mr. LeJuan, how far in advance did you plan the boss hog outfit? Great question. That's a good question. I thought about it when I made my first pro ball. I was like, you might get paid, buddy.

All right. So, honestly, I had the idea in my head for a little bit. And what I wanted to do was I wanted to pull up. I thought you'll get paid the day before camp, you'll pull up to camp. I was going to show up in that convertible, all-white interior with the steer horns Cadillac DeVille, that long one, with the outfit on. But I was like two days into camp by the time I seen him. So like six, seven weeks before, there's this place in Nashville called Stitch that I go to. I looked at him.

I was like, I need an all-white suit, three-piece, make me look like this guy. And I didn't go old school, boss hog. I went Reynolds. I went full Reynolds, boss hog. That was probably the best decision I've ever made. Do you still rock that suit? I got it hanging up. I'm afraid to bust it back out because the first game we played in the NFL,

I got knocked out. I was doing the back talk thing. I was eating my words a little bit. Hey, the thought of him talking to himself at his first Pro Bowl, like in the bathroom, you know, he wakes up the first morning of the Pro Bowl, I got to go to a meeting, looks in the mirror'll tell you what taylor you're about to be rich honestly i'm not gonna last exactly how it went all right i think we i think we did it boys i thought like after the first one

they're gonna call the titans are gonna call. Didn't figure out that's not how it works. I'm sitting there for three months like, okay, do they want me? It was cool, man. The whole situation is awesome. Next question is from a guy from Boston. He's a diehard Brady fan. His name is Connor. Taylor, how are you?

I am a diehard Brady fan. As a guy from Michigan, do you think they've got to get rid of Harbaugh? Because every year it seems they're close, but they're never actually close to the national championship. Literally the last time I was in Michigan was for court. I haven't even been to a game since. Harbaugh's rad. I know nothing about the guy.

I've been in the bandwagon this year. They're trending in the right direction. I think that Shea Patterson, he's going. We were doing awesome all year, and then we played Rutgers, and we played Indiana, and things did not go well. And then Ohio State, I was betting house. I mean, obviously, I was betting the maximum $250 bet you can with the NFL based on the rules.

Of course. With anybody that was based on the rules. Of course. With anybody that was willing to take it, of course. I ended up losing $250. I was pissed. So you think you should be fired? $250? Yeah. Honestly, I think a little patience.

He's been there, what, three, four years now? Of course. Of course. Give him a year, two years, and then you'll figure it out. I mean, you have to have consistency at quarterback. You have to have the defense play good all of the year, not just 10 games. And then the receiving court and stuff like that.

I mean, there were some balls I could have brought down earlier in that game, but that would have changed the whole thing. Did you win your court case, though? How did we do there? Yeah, I took a plea deal. We did okay. It was actually with an Ohio State fan right after my senior year. It kind of killed my day.

Hold on, hold on, hold on. If you're going to tell a good fucking story, we need to hear this. Hold on. I mean, you're breaking up there. We need that thing glued to your face. What happened? You're an Ohio State there. We need that thing glued to your face. What happened? You're an Ohio State fan. It hurt your draft stock.

This is the makings for a story that I should hear. No, so I was in Michigan, obviously, and the Ohio State game ended. We lost. It was like 43-42. We went for a 2.8 version to win the game. I remember that. And we didn't get it.

Heartbreak Hotel, right? Population. I go back to my house or whatever I'm staying at and drink some hams. And we decided we're going to go out to the garage, dating at the time, my brother, and a buddy from high school. We ended up going to this place called the Brown Jug,

the fun little bar. They do karaoke night on Sundays, and I like to get my dad dancing. I was a little singing. And we karaoke night on Sundays, and I like to get my dance on. We go out there, and some citizen jag off with a big microphone in his mouth yelling. He's an Ohio State student. He's yelling how Michigan sucks. It doesn't bother me when I get to the bar with my

brother, 19 years old at the time, says something to him. This dude is so drunk he hip checks a pole. Long story short, these four guys are like my age now, 27 years old. They're literally about to fight my next year old brother. I ran over there.

I pushed the guy down. And then they ended up making a big Fugazi satisia. And I knocked him out and all that different noise. Ended up breaking up with the girl that I was with. And then she told the cops that I totally hit the guy. Oh! That's on Dateline all the time. Oh, man.

Tough living, boys. Tough living. She apologized, though, so we're all good. Hey, thanks for telling us that story right there. By the way, as an offensive lineman pushing somebody, I mean, you would think it would help you. Just like I thought Laramie Tunsil took that gas mask to the face and didn't cough.

I was like, that should be a fucking first pick of the trip. He's got the greatest lungs of all time. Of all time, face and didn't cough. I was like, that should be a fucking first pick of the trip. He's got the greatest lungs of all time. Of all time, Taylor. Last question here. I was like, he won. Yeah. He won the gas that night. Yeah, and everybody's like, this is going to hurt him.

I texted Chuck Pagano. I was like, hey, I've hit a similar gas mask there. The fact that he did not cough one time, I think that guy might be in the best shape of any human on earth. Pat, just relax, Pat. Ty Schmidt from Iowa has a question. It's the last one. We appreciate you, man.

Yeah, Taylor, I haven't been to Nashville in a while. Just curious, what are some of your favorite spots out there or places that I should check out? Yeah, I love that question. It's awesome. All right, the one place I'll tell you to go if you ever go to Nashville, don't go to Broadway. Don't go to Midtown. You're going to go to a spot near Midtown. There's going to Alright, the one place I'll tell you to go if you ever go to Nashville, don't go to Broadway. Don't go to Midtown.

You're going to go to a spot near Midtown. There's going to be a place called Winners. You're going to drive right past that place. There's a place right next to it called Losers. That's where we are. That's it. Is that where we were playing foosball? Yeah. We were playing foosball there? Winners is full of

egotistical assholes because they think they're winners. Losers, everyone's like, yeah, we win some, we lose some, but here we are. And everyone has a good time, man. That is the bar, in my opinion. It's so much fun. It's actually owned by the same guy. The same guy owns both those bars, but it's a blast.

We are winners. You check that spot out. And when you're out there, you let Daddy know. We are losers. Chainsmokers and boozers. We got something. Boys, I love it. Hey, are you a country music fan?

You have to be, I guess. I'm a country music fan of real country music. I'm not into the whole, like, they got beats now. I think EDM music with a twang in it. I'm not a fan of that. But I do like the old school country music. And Eric Church, right? I love Eric Church.

Have you guys listened to a band called Midland? No. Love them. Hey, you guys need to get on those boys. Those boys got it all figured out. They're bringing back the good 80s, 90s country. Nice. Midland, Chris Stapleton, Eric Church,

those guys have got the whole thing figured out. Are you still tight with the Kings? Of Leon? Yeah, I'm tight with the boys. Yeah, they're awesome. Those guys are characters, dude. They are Nashville. They're so much fun. I learned that one night. I had a great time with the Kings of Leon. Go ahead and

tell them about old Pat McAfee. I think they would enjoy that next time. I haven't talked to him since. I was in an article, though. They had an article about them, how they were trying to stop drinking. It was like a Rolling Stone article. And the only time any of them drank was in Indianapolis in the basement when Pat McAfee ordered 15 tequilas for everybody. And it was like they almost spun the article as if it was like me

that was going to tear them down. It was a nightmare. It was a fucking nightmare. It's the rise and fall of an empire. The rise and fall of an empire because of Pat McAfee. It's not the first. It's not the last. Taylor, we appreciate you so much, man.

You're the greatest. Have a great Pro Bowl week. Are you going to do the dodgeball game or anything like that? No, no. I think it's an invite-only thing. I think Tennessee doesn't get enough. We don't get enough love. I got nothing over here.

I'm just hanging out. This is the highlight of my week right now. Anytime you want to call in again, you do that this week, next week, whenever. I appreciate you so much. You're a legend. I'm going to buy a Luan jersey and hang it in the studio here. I'm going to have to get you signed at some point.

We appreciate you and good luck, my brother. Alright, fellas. I'll be out there someday. I don't know when I'm going to Indiana next, but when I'm out there, I want to see the whole place. I want to jump on the pod for a little bit. Well, I mean, as long as you have a better fucking phone. All right, fellas, I appreciate it. All right, see you, Taylor.

Good luck, man. Taylor. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Taylor was absolutely incredible right there. His phone was garbage.

A little bit spotty. Like A.J. Hawk, these guys who have all this money and all these accolades, their cell phones somehow don't work. He told us that he was holding that thing right to his face, and he was right in the same area the entire time. It sure sounded like he was walking around. It did. He said he had a couple rum chadas

before he got in there. I'm a big fan of Taylor LeJuan. I am going to try to get his jersey in this studio. I think I'm going to start doing that. People that I think are hilarious humans, I'm going to start hanging their jerseys. That's a good idea. I'm going to start hanging them.

AJ Hawk is obviously going in here. AQ, obviously going to have a good thing. Taylor LeJuan in here. Darius Butler, friend of mine, he's going in here. People that I'm like, you know what, that guy, hilarious, get in the jersey. I think you're right, too. I think he is the benchmark of one of those guys who, if he's not on your team,

you just kind of hate him just because of the way he acts and then you listen to him and stuff like that and it's like, oh, this guy's actually hilarious. No, but he knows that. Yeah, exactly. Which is even better. Yes. When he's giving those answers, he knows that everybody who isn't... He knows that there's people who aren't fans of his

and he's like, yeah, I don't really give a shit. Yeah, he's very comfortable in his own skin. I'm happy he came on, man. Chuck Pagano was supposed to come on. What are you going to do? I'm never going to let him on this fucking show. That's what I'm going to do. The first time he backed out, a couple minutes before we started doing it,

because of the Chicago press conference. He says, I'll come on for next week. Now the Chicago press conference isn't until this morning. So he was like, I can't record it because of the thing. He's like, how's next week? I'm like, we're three weeks out now. This is old news. It's old news, Chuck.

I didn't even want to talk news you becoming it's old news chuck it's old i didn't want to talk about you becoming d coordinator maybe you're becoming like a coach to battle leukemia and beat it how about that chuck i want to talk about you chuck not you being d coordinator you're not piece of meat to me but now he's never coming on the show it's over i'm done with it he sent me that text this morning he sent me a text that was like yo my press conference is tomorrow excited to chat when am I getting on I'm like today you were supposed to be on today

that's how I responded you were supposed to be on today he was like Pat I can't check press conference tomorrow morning my show's coming on tomorrow Pat come on and I was like come on Jesus is what I responded with seven s's jesus and i said you're

done you're cut never come on the show i hope those bears defense does well i wouldn't want to have an opinion about it i'm joking hopefully we get him on the show doesn't seem likely like we couldn't get aaron rogers there for a long time and then we got him on the show and it was awesome it was a good chat and we formed a friendship it's almost like chuck a guy who i travel to japan it's the same type of feel it's like trying to get him on the show is impossible it's like this is an impossible why is this such an impossible thing makes no sense if you're at the chicago press conference this morning with Chuck Pagano announcing his being decoordinated and taking questions, if you ask him why he hasn't come on

the Pat McAfee show, I will give you $500 of my own money. If somebody in the Chicago Bears press conference this morning with Chuck Pagano, somebody in the media asks him why he hasn't come on the Pat McAfee show 2.0, I will give you $500.

Imagine that first question. We will now open it up for questions. What's Chuck saying? Oh, Jesus. I was supposed to be on. I'm going next week. In his head, though, he'll be like, how the fuck did this happen? That'd be hilarious.

It would be. It would be a magical moment so if you if you're a media member from chicago and you are going to that thing just ask him why he hasn't come on the bad mic for show 2.0 500 in my own cash 500 bucks nothing to sneeze at 500 bones bro even if you're wealthy 500 bones is a good win any of you can do it i think we have a pretty good little following up there in chicago i think so so maybe get the word around maybe if you're not in there tell a friend referral fee there you get it you know what i mean yep tell them split it with you and there you go look at that what we

Like if you were the best weed smoker, they would give you that trophy. Are you guys trying to name it? Is that what's happening? Well, we got it delivered. We need to name it now. I'll post a picture of it. In my experience, it's best to name it after first smoking. Christening.

Yeah, because then you get to experience it. It's like Scootsie. And then post in the thoughts. It's like Scootsie. And then post in the thoughts. It's like Scootsie, the three-legged cat, didn't get her name until we lived with her for a day and we're like, oh, this thing literally just scoots around. Yeah. Yeah, because this thing could be a fucking steamroller.

It could. It could be a plow. Or it could be a steamroller. Or it could be super smooth. A steamroller is a different type of smoking device. That was very, very original, what you just did there. No, I didn't. Well, I'm unsure what I did, so you've got to explain it to me.

I appreciate it. But this thing could be a forklift, really. It could lift you up and go to another place. Good one. I feel like it's going to. I think so. I mean, listen to the sound of this. It's got a deep one, man.

It's got a deep sound. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Call that thing a concussion. CT. Not bad. No, yeah. Call that thing a concussion. CTE. Yeah. Not bad. No, CTE is negative.

That's negative, yeah. Hey, you want to take a hit on CTE? I'd love to take a hit on CTE. I don't hate that. Hey, something to think about, maybe. You call it James Earl Jones. Because it's got a deep voice? Yeah.

Yeah. Oh. It's got that deep pipe. I would have to know what that is, though. I am your father. Mm-hmm. Who is that? He was the voice of Darth Vader.

Sounds just like him. You probably know him from the, he used to do the phone commercials back in the day. Our beast, we have the beef. Oh, the African-American man? Yes. Yep. Kind of rounder looking fellow? Yeah, exactly.

That's him. What was that, Zito? No, there was something on my screen that popped up. Oh, is that right? You were pointing at the bomb being black? I think Nick put a suck sign on my computer. It sure felt like you were pointing at the bomb being black. No, that can't be it.

It sure felt like it, Zito. Wow. Appreciate whoever sent this to us. I have no idea. It came with no letter. It was kind of weird. Where was it from? Sweden.

Sweden? Amsterdam or Sweden? Netherlands. Netherlands, which is Amsterdam. Oh, Vichy. So Amsterdam. I was wrong. Sweden was a from? Sweden. Sweden? Amsterdam or Sweden? Netherlands. Netherlands, which is Amsterdam. Oh, Vichy. So Amsterdam. I was wrong. Sweden was a Vichy.

We thought that possibly because we talked about Vichy in the last one that his team sent us a bong like, hey, hey. Yeah. So that's how I mistook Amsterdam from whatchamacallit. It could be Cerrone. Is that his name from Major League? Cerrone. Cerrone, yeah.

Because he's got the same deep voice. Avicii, also a great name for that. Oh, Avicii, because it's still alive. It's from a... But it could also kill you. The true meaning. Look at that! Hey, Avicii, what's going on, man?

I don't know Cause then I'll think I'll be smoking Out of a dude Good point Suck it Easy over there I'm just saying

Isn't that what you do When you smoke those You gotta suck it Have you ever smoked One of these Guys I've dropped More weed than y'all Have smoked

So I'm just saying I will bet Every single dollar That you've ever made In your entire life and your previous bosses that that is not accurate. Okay.

That that is not an accurate assessment. Were you a weed guy, though? Big time. I feel like back in the day, everybody was a weed guy. He spent more on spilt weed. On this side of Mississippi. Oh, man. From one side of the world.

You got to go to Amsterdam. That's what brought it up. You got to go. Well, see, now Colorado, though, is just like Amsterdam. Not even close. Without the prostitutes. But from a weed perspective, if you get, for instance, if you get weed from Colorado, it's like, okay,

this is going to be a good time. This weed is recreational weed. This is for people to have a good time with. If you get some stuff from California, there's a chance that that is legit medicinal weed, and that is a potential game over. Flip. Flip.

Flip for you. Because it's not for recreational use. Colorado became like the Amsterdam of America. That's why they made like, what, $100 million or something in the first couple months. Oh, yeah. It is something like that. Without the whores in the red light district. Plus the canals.

You're stumbling out of the thing. You're right on a canal. It's beautiful. It's exotic. It's wonderful. It's exotic. It's wonderful. It's artistic. The Rockies, bro. You got a problem with the fucking Rockies?

Not at all. I'm just saying. You got to go to Amsterdam. Smoke that shit right next to the stream. Go to both of them. Go to both of them. Have you ever seen Coors Light commercials? There's a lot of streams and canals out there.

Blue Mountains. Blue Mountains. It's gorgeous. I do want to go to Amsterdam. You do. And by the way, fresh squeezed orange juice In every coffee shop Really Delicious

Every coffee shop Delicious I'm allergic Orange juice No Yeah when I was a kid I used to drink a bunch of it And then I got a bad bout

Of Ty Schmidt butt I tell you what That's one Like when you're a kid And you just run Like you just came in From outside From playing ball or something

And you run right into the kitchen Open that Sunny D Just drink the fucking orange juice, ice cold, right out of the cart and put it back in there. There's nothing better than that. Sonny D used to be a real player in the game in my fridge. Is it still around?

Sonny D and Elio's? Oh, yeah. Elio's Pizza? Who? Elio's Pizza? You know what? Let's just make more local jokes. Sonny D.

I'm sure I'll fill with people that are just not. What the fuck? I wish I could have got Helios pizza. Yeah, okay. That was a combination for me. All right, I'll step off. Yeah. I wish I could have.

The best part was you looked around like us to agree with you. Somebody listening knows. Somebody listening knows. Yeah, they agree. Somebody listening knows. So you can't drink orange juice anymore? Makes you gag? What, if you even smell it?

No, this is just something. It's in his head. It's just the way I operate. If something like this happens, I'm never going back. I did that with golden grams. Those are delicious. I can't even smell them right now or a projectile vomit. Really? Probably because you had them

right before you got sick one time. 10 years old. It was the same trip, camping trip that I was on and I found out that Elvis died. That was a tough weekend. Okay. It was the same trip, camping trip that I was on, and I found out that Elvis died. Okay. That was a tough weekend. Oh, fuck. Okay?

Yeah. He dies his hair, bro. And I ate Golden Grahams outside, and I was like, give me another bowl of that. And I just huffed that one down, too. Started to feel sick. Projectile vomited, Golden Grahams, never again. Can't touch it again. No, and that was, what, 40 years ago?

Okay, so what happened to me, I was on the same cruise where I was accosted to go fuck a man's wife in his suite not bad i was offered that up uh good cruise very interesting but we stopped at uh this one island and they had magical mushrooms like trippy mushrooms but they had drinks for them oh so you drink it as opposed to eat the mushrooms which tastes terrible they had the drinks they had like a malt like a mushroom mold it was called a magical mushroom malt almost and obviously i can chug things like a soup yeah no it was like a malt probably not something you should have chugged yeah yeah but i i impressed the locals by the way with how much i took down i mean you gotta do what you gotta do when you're when i was in morocco when i was in

morocco i chugged the tea. I got a standing ovation from the locals. I brought people together there. There wasn't a lot of camaraderie. I felt like I did it. Same thing with this goddamn magical mushroom malt. Chugged her down. Have a good time.

Start tripping a little bit. It wasn't really that. The liquid, I think, kind of ruined the trippy. It wasn't as... The mushrooms weren't as... Potent? Good of... Yeah, potent of mushrooms

as i had had in the past so i was kind of judging them for that for this is what they were known for but the drink the the ability to drink it at any of the bars was something that's like oh that's a lot better than what i had experienced in the past so it was like uh it was a win-win yeah anyways tasted a lot like mushrooms so i drink that that thing. I have a good time. I trip a little bit. Get back on the boat. This is the same cruise that I missed the one island to the next island boat call. So, I mean, a lot of things happen in this cruise.

I get back on the boat, though, and I puked for three hours. That mushroom thing. I don't eat mushrooms. You won't see me fucking around with mushrooms anymore, strictly because of that situation. I won't even. What about psychedelic mushrooms? Well, those are hard to find.

I mean, that's why that island was such a God's gift. So you wanted, like, normal mushrooms? Yeah, because it tasted like... It reminded you of it. It reminded me of it. It, like, brought it up. And I puked for three hours on a ship. It was a bad situation.

That's miserable. Especially those cruise ships. Your room's, like, this big. So I'm... Not a lot of room. I'm puking with my ass like basically out the door it's tough to get on your knees and puke in that toilet it was an embarrassing because by this time the boat had known me right i mean i just chugged a bunch of this place's magical mushroom with a

group from the i mean the boat like where's pat where's pat and they open the door and all you hear is me just fucking howling i mean it was a tough situation but i won't fuck with mushrooms i have that same feeling with roasted marshmallows, like campfire roasted marshmallows. It sucks. You go camping, everyone's enjoying marshmallows.

I can't do it. I ate a bunch one night, got sick afterwards, puked my brains out all night just marshmallows. I don't think you're missing anything. Yeah, they're overrated. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

You guys don't like a good s'more? I do. Yeah, but then you got graham cracker and chocolate. He's talking just marshmallows. I like it just roasted on a stick. If you got s'more? I do. Then you got graham cracker and chocolate. He's talking just marshmallows. If you got s'more ingredients there versus hot dog ingredients for the fire, I'm going hot dog every single time.

Completely different though. Or mountain pie? You get a good mountain pie, pepperoni and cheese? What's a mountain pie? I'll go graham cracker and chocolate without the marshmallow too, by the way. I will do that. I do that at these camp things whenever people i don't like marshmallows i don't fuck with the marshmallows either keep them off my

goddamn hot chocolate too i don't know what we're doing stop taking up room in a goddamn cup with your little fucking marshmallows i want hot chocolate that's what i'm here for great conversation it's only getting started too i've been talking a lot about food being delivered to my house a lot it's my new thing staying in is my new thing.

Foxy, you're a real one. Back to the combo. Yeah, I'm on that side. A mountain pie is you take two griddle-looking things, and you spray some Pam, and then you put four pieces of bread down, and then you put some tomato sauce, or whatever you want.

It could be ham and cheese. It could be pizza. I've only done ham and cheese. Ham and cheese is very good. Pizza's also very good. And you close it, and you put it in the fire, and it comes out like a homemade Hot Pocket. I like that.

It's beautiful. It's unbelievable. And you look like you're you put it in the fire, and it comes out like a homemade Hot Pocket. It's beautiful. It's unbelievable. And you look like you're some goddamn Paul Revere, too, because you just did it. It's very, very good. You just whip something together. You just throw it in the fire? No, no, no.

So it's a griddle, and it folds into two, and then it comes in like a case. It's the pinching. It's like a waffle maker. You've got to go to a camping place to get it, though, right? Yeah, probably. Or Hump Depot or Lowe's, probably. You've got to be with somebody who has it. That's howowe's. You've got to be with somebody who has it.

That's how this works. You've got to be with somebody who has it. You can't really make your own unless you're an iron maker. And then they bring it out. Pittsburgh. Iron City. Blacksmith? There it is.

Yeah. Yep. I don't mind camping out, by the way. I think I would camp out. Here's a couple. I would do it a lot by the way I think I would camp out here's a couple I would do it a lot more often I think if wifi was guaranteed to be a good speech

because it feels like I'm camping out of my house and I can't fucking load a goddamn photo it takes me 7 minutes to upload some things it is insane and by the time I upload it that play is already gone towards the end of the season somehow the way the weather has gone my wifi has gotten worse at home upload some things. It's insane. It is insane. And by the time I upload it, that play's already gone. Towards the end of the season, somehow, the way the weather has gone, my Wi-Fi has gotten worse at home.

So these For the Brand videos come out like two series later. Everybody's like, we're past that, bro. Is every part of your house the same, internet-wise? It's all shit. It's all shit. But I think camping is a good time. It is. I enjoy it a lot. I'll sit around a campfire

and have a good time, but I want a camper. I don't want no fucking tent light on. I'm sleeping on the floor. We're talking about log cabinets here. I'm an adult. I'm a fucking adult. You like glamping? Yes. I would do glamping. Some of those tents are pretty impressive. I'd still do a tent. One night though.

One night max. Nick, you do a tent for what 20 30 minutes and when it's quiet and then you're gonna be sitting in the tent saying should have been with pat and the fucking glam oh don't get me wrong if there's an option for a cabin or a cab or a camper or something like that i'm all in but if it's just one night in a town i could do it i still want that school bus man i want to soup up a school bus they're called schoolies on the internet they're wider than the the tour still yellow no no no we we fix it up that thing gets probably blacked out we probably

put on some uh some big tires on it to have it souped up a little bit we probably break it into sections too there's probably like a green screen room where i can film stuff in it bedroom in the back probably a nice little living area and then then probably a diner maybe in there. Stencil the legend on the front as well. I fell in for $5,000. Yeah, but the upgrade is going to be because you have to flip the entire thing. Are you going to camp in this? That was the plan, yeah.

Because you've got to get a shower then. Well, yeah, that's back in the bedroom. So you put a shower in there, and that just dumps right to the floor. It goes right out the bottom. We'll get that on the road press a button somebody i apologize there's enough shit out there literally someone's windshield wipers uh big wi-fi on the top of that though oh yeah like i don't know how back in the day tour you guys used to tour and you would just drive around and there was no tv in any of these buses there's no internet there was no service people were just driving around in the backwoods for nowhere i could do that for a

couple days i think i'd love it to kind of get lost but man when you're talking like weeks at a time i don't know how people do it well they didn't really know that much difference back then when black crows were hot the internet really wasn't a thing it was tvs and stereo that was it burke kreischer right now is traveling around for that world uh he came to indiana i couldn't go i had to record something but he has a tv in his bus that's operating at all times and wi-fi that seems like that would be a good thing i'm like i think i could just travel around and do that that looks like as long as i got a good bed in the back yeah as long as i got a good bed lisa hooks it up with a bed in the back i'm in a good spot how much do you think Like having all that in there

Like for the TV Internet I think it's expensive Well if you took a bus And you redid the bus You're looking at You know I wasn't even talking

About that part I was talking about Like the internet And TV itself Having live TV It's just a hot spot Right No it's just a

To receive cellular data Communicates with some cell towers It's not that expensive Probably Yeah don't be a fucking idiot bro Just some cellular data With some cell towers As long as you connect To a cell tower, you're in good shape. 5G is coming very soon, so.

Yes. DirecTV is on all the buses. That's the only option, really, on the buses. Really? I know. I know. But DirecTV barely works at stationary house that I have. Barely works.

I don't need to be driving across Iowa wanting wanting to watch the iowa hawkeyes and then just have a fucking 7-elevens code on my goddamn things how much do you think it would cost for what for a proper to flip the entire thing yeah oh to flip it flip it how much how much you buying the shell for the the bus the school bus yeah let's say i buy the school bus for 10 grand it's a pretty good one it's a nice size 10 grand yeah 100 g's you're laughing if you want if you want 10,000 i'm out the door with a souped up school i would have said anywhere from 100 to 500 depending on how nice you want satellite on top i bet you definitely could i mean we were really get some wi-fi we were on jake owens bus and that thing was incredible like white leather and that's one of those

million dollars. Those rock star bus, I've looked into this because I've wanted to do this a lot. I've wanted to just kind of drive around and just live but those tour buses, whenever they're not open up, there's no room in those goddamn things. The aisleways are like a foot wide

and when they're parked and they open up, it's awesome but whenever you're driving, the actual miserable part, there's really no room in them right so those buses are so expensive just about to begin with that's what led me to the school buses i'm like all right we get an old school bus that thing's already naturally wider than one of those buses now granted those buses whenever they're perched open they got the windows open and uh the seats open very beautiful but the school bus i think is a pretty wide operation there you can get comfortable in there set up a little diner a little cozy couch why don't. But the school bus, I think, is a pretty wide operation there. You can get comfortable in there, set up a little diner,

a little cozy couch. Why don't you keep the school bus, get an extender on that rascal? What do you need a diner for? Huh? What do you need a diner for? I just want to be able to walk around and make myself some coffee,

sit back down. I drink tea, by the way, so it would be tea. It's like just a little kitchen. Yeah, diner. I was like, if we were on the road, we could stop at the best diners.

Yeah, true. True. Not going to have a lot of those beds in there. The way they stack up like 10 beds on the side, I don't know. Like Sean Latham did that with Fluffy. I don't know, boss. You're in a little shell. It's like a little locker of a human locker.

We did them at the 500 one year. I couldn't fit in there. I couldn't either. I had to have my knees bent the entire time to lay out. Nought's great. Yeah. But you're touring. You're seeing the world.

That's good. I want to do one of those one day. A world tour. I just want to go and bounce around the world. That'd be awesome, right? Oh, yeah. What would you call it? World tour.

World tour. Patch world tour. The world tour. Just the. Anybody ever say that before? Professional world tour. We should probably trademark that. PWT. The world tour. Just the. Anybody ever say that before? Professional World Tour. We should probably trademark that. PWT.

The World Tour. Nobody's. Copyright, copyright, copyright. Nobody's ever called their thing that. No. No. Not the World Tour. No way.

No. What is a city that you would want to go to in the world? Outside the United States? Ibiza. Ibiza? Oh, yeah. We got to go to Ibiza. Bartholonew. Sydney, Australia. It's tough to get your bus to Ibiza. Ibiza? Oh, yeah. We got to go to Ibiza. Barcelona.

Sydney, Australia. It's tough to get your bus to Ibiza. Barcelona. Barcelona is phenomenal. See, when I went there, it was just all homeless people hanging around that goddamn church. I think that's most of Europe. I go to Mother Russia. Really?

Yeah. There's a lot of homeless people in Italy. Why don't they all travel to Ibiza? That's tough to get a... They'd have to swim. No money. Expensive over there in Ibiza. That's why I always wonder, like, in America, if I'm a homeless person,

I am on the first thing smoking to Los Angeles. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know how... I see homeless people here in Indiana. I look at them. Like, today we saw... We left from a Buffalo Wild Wings shoot today, by the way.

Something huge was happening at Super Bowl with Buffalo Wild Wings. Atta boy. It was pretty good. Atta boy. If that game goes to overtime, Buffalo Wild Wings is giving free wings to everybody. Let's go. If the Super Bowl goes to overtime, Buffalo Wild Wings is giving free wings to everybody in America. That's incredible.

And I'm a part of the whole thing. I just recorded for like three hours with them earlier today. A lot of takes. Hey, get you excited. I was like, how many videos do we have to make to get people excited for fucking free wings? I don't know how you guys are giving away your company literally. It's kind of messed up though

because they control that. They just have that one guy hits the button and then ref cuz he trips. Yeah, they're the overtime experts. People are wondering if maybe they were the ones that did the old pass interference no call. Because you see the one ref wave off the other one maybe he has an earpiece to buffalo wild wings possibly that's their thing overtime

but yeah overtime happens free wings for america shut up buffalo wild wings we're filming with them at the downtown buffalo wild wings here and then we get out and i hadn't been downtown a long time like actually on that side of the city we saw like three homeless guys in his back alley trying to work some deal they're trying to find somebody like azito yep and i i i we stopped and i stared at him for like 30 seconds but in my head i was having a full thought like i want to get out and go tell them like yo every drug you want everything you could possibly want including good weather you don't have to hide out from this because they had shit over their head for the rain yeah i'm like yo just get the there's a homeless capital of america get to california how do we get you guys to california why don't you for like two weeks just use your little panhandle money and just take a ticket to

california instead of spending drugs for one night just pocket half of it maybe just save half use other half for drugs or alcohol and just get your ass to fucking California because you get your ass out there and you find that fucking place. That's going to be good for you. I'll never understand it. Never.

Was one of them wearing a gray North Face by chance? There was a guy in gray. Gray or green? Gray. There potentially was a guy there was the other day i had my gray north face taken from my car oh oh he's under some bridge z he's under yeah he's i know where he's at but he's not gonna be there for long because i talked his ass in a go to california he's not gonna need the coat anymore well he's got a great new jacket doesn't have to

go and when we were in la that homeless dude was shooting hoops with Lamar Odom. You can look forward to that. If any of you in here ever become homeless. Yes, including me. If I ever become homeless. Promise me that you were on the first thing smoking to California.

I used to tell this to my cousin all the time because he's on and off again homeless. He's homeless right now. And I was always like, dude, what are you doing in Indiana being homeless? You're way smarter than that. Go to LA and be homeless. Homeless people there are like I have a normal life.

Hurricanes. Florida, I'm not really worried about the humidity. It's like, oh, if I'm going to be homeless and outside, alligators. Yeah, a lot of Florida gators. Plus the homeless people in Florida are just violent. They're just eating people's faces. Yeah, they're crazy.

Dismembering people's hearts. Homeless people there are crazy. Yeah, because they do the spice and become zombies in Florida. Out in L.A., it's just acid, and they just have no idea what's going on. Hawaii would be a good place to be. Yeah, if you could get there. It's tough. That's tough.

You're going to have to swim. You're going to have to train for that one. A lot of shows. You're going to have to train for that one. I'm going to Hawaii. Oh, boy. You are? Oh have to train for that one. A lot of shows. You're going to have to train for that one. I'm going to Hawaii. Oh, boy. You are? Oh, yeah.

Excited? I am. I guess it's not going to be like super warm, though. What do you mean? What are we talking? 80 high? No, I think it's going to be like 70, low 70s the whole time. So definitely warm.

For me, it's going to be perfect. It's going to be delightful. I like that a lot. For me, it's going to be perfect. I don't know if it's going to be like a full. Yeah. Like getting in the water is going to be kind of tough. That's what I'm saying. I think the water is going to be perfect. I don't know if it's going to be like a full... Like getting in the water is going to be kind of tough. That's what I'm saying. I think the water is going to be cold.

I just got my ears back. High 60, low 42 all February. That's what I'm talking about. It's going to be... I think it's going to be nice. In fucking Hawaii? Yeah. A lot of hiking. By the way, we booked thinking the same thing you thought. Yeah, Hawaii. It's going to be warm.

We paid for this very nice suite and our travel it's still gonna be nice here's the heater the next day sam like googled it and she sent me a text it was like don't even look at the weather for hawaii i was like i won't i know it's gonna be great it's hawaii and she was like it's almost making me depressed i was like why she was like we should have looked at that before i was like yeah and i looked it up and i was like probably we're just going to fucking we're going to like right here this is the weather indiana's like 40 so i looked when we're supposed to go when we're supposed to leave it's supposed to be like 20s here thank god because if i was leaving indiana and showing up at worse weather i would have been in terrible. Indiana goes from negative something to 45 today or something like that.

Yeah, bananas. And it's going back to negatives. Yeah. It's supposed to be snow in here when we bounce out. Bounce out. Good. I like good snowfall. First one.

I can get sick of it. I guess the Farmer's Almanac was saying that this was going to be a bad winter. Hasn't been at all. No. I missed that one. A couple of big storms. A couple of big storms. Really? Hey, don't sleep on winter. Hasn't been at all. No. I missed that one. A couple big storms. A couple big storms. Really?

Hey, don't sleep on winter. There's still time. Oh, fuck snow. It's supposed to snow this weekend, isn't it? Is it? I think so, yeah. It's another like

three to five minutes. So what, snow is a weekend warrior all of a sudden? I know. That feels like that's the only thing that's been happening. It's unbelievable.

Usually you don't like snow. Not anymore. I used to like it, but now after living in warmer climates, California, Georgia, Tennessee, I'm like, fuck snow. It's real, though. When you go to California and the weather's nice or something like that, it makes you want to be outside. So when you're outside, you're going to do something probably active,

which is probably going to boost the endorphins in your body. You're getting vitamin D. It's good for you. Speaking of that, I need a spray tan. I need a spray tan. I've got a big weekend coming up. Where are you going? Foxy and I are traveling to Phoenix, Arizona,

for the WWE NXT TakeOver. He's excited. That was terrible timing on that one. It was really bad. That yawn couldn't have come out of it. That's going to be awesome. I am excited. This is like my fifth one, I think.

Fourth or fifth one. Is there a WWE pay-per-view there? Royal Rumble. Oh, yeah. Really? Royal Rumble is this Sunday. How many men in the ring? 30. Oh, my God. Let's How many men in the ring? 30.

Oh, my God. Let's go. How's the outfit? Hey. Cocky. I got a cocky outfit. I don't know anything about it. So this one, every single time it's a whole decision because when I go work with the WWE,

I mean, I understand that the expectations are just like they were in the NFL. They look nice, right? Like we are a professional company, look good. So nothing's ever been laid out for me like what I have to wear. I've always just been wearing what I think that I should probably wear, right? Granted, jorts I've worn a couple times, but that's under the table. I mean, they make an appearance because I have to stand up and let people know what's going on. Like this might be business on top, but it's party on the ball.

We got a mullet outfit going on. So this time I'm going for it. This time I'm... I can't wait. Let's go. This time I'm pretty comfortable. I still look professional though. I think I've been able to piece together an outfit

that is both comfortable and professional. And I've lost weight, so everything fits very nicely. That's all about. That's Okay. And I've lost weight, so everything fits very nicely. That's what it's all about. That's good. So I think this particular outfit, I wanted to set the precedent for like, hey, if I'm going to do a lot of these shows with you guys, which isn't guaranteed, but if I am,

I would like it to be known that I am not going to be putting on those tight suits that you guys expect everybody else to wear forever. Right. But maybe I will have to. Maybe I show up and when I'm planning on wearing it, they're like, you're not going on TV. I got to go buy some shit then. I don't got anything else.

I'm only packing one outfit. One outfit. I'm sure you know this since you've played in a Pro Bowl there. Exactly the same weekend, actually. It gets cold in the desert at night. It does get cold. It gets windy as a motherfucker too. If you drive two hours out into the desert

to attempt to do football practice, it's going to be miserable. It's going to be windy. It's going to be cold. You've got no shot. The NFL did great with that. Shout out to them. Great job.

So a 9 a.m. tee time could be pretty cold. Yeah. Probably be chilly. Never been to Arizona. Yeah, we are. We're golfing with AQ Shipley out there. Nice. Friday morning.

So tomorrow morning, we're golfing. Yeah, it could be a little, maybe a three-quarter zip. All right, I like that. Good book. You can peel off halfway through.quarter zip. All right, I like that. So you can peel off halfway through. It's like fall golf. I like that. Yeah, but without the leaves. You wearing shoes tomorrow?

No shoes? Shut up. Bare feet? Yeah, I'm out of my eyes. I'm going bare feet tomorrow. Careful, there's scorpions. Oh, yeah, yeah. The cactus is fucking poisonous spiders.

I'm putting shoes on Yeah I'm wearing shoes Check your fucking Check your closet Check your shoes Before you stick your feet in them Snakes is a real deal out there Oh yeah

Who? Snakes Copperhead Road Snakes I got a snake in my boot They'll kill you I've been thinking of some one liners For this weekend though

Okay I'll tell you what That murder mountain Really helped me out Nice I got a lot of questions I'd be watching that Murder Mountain, and then they'd say something,

and I'd be like, let me write that down. Like the one lady or guy said, stealth is wealth up here. Oh, I like that. That's working its way into the show for sure. For sure. Like if somebody doesn't like to talk a lot,

I'm like, I think the motto they live by is stealth is wealth, which I found out on Homicide Mountain. You can't say murder mountain. You cannot say murder up there. Do you know what time the show is? I think it's at 6.30 or 6 o'clock. It seems to be a longer one.

I got to run a show this morning, and if it's based off of this, it's going to be a longer one. Because they had NXT awards, too. So it's like an awards show slash pre-show. So I'll be giving out awards. Let's go. Basically hosting the Oscars there. Yeah.

Basically. Congratulations. That's a big deal. Yeah. Good for me, man. Good for you, man. That's good for you. Who would have thought I'd be hosting an awards show?

I'm the third host. I'm on the edge of the table with the least amount of lines to start not to finish start to finish every show so far I've been very much on the far end every time I go out to these though it's it's crazy

it's just crazy to think about you know because growing up you watch it and then you get to experience a couple and I'm sure it'll happen at some point but it feels like how i felt whenever i was in the nfl in like my first six years probably it was like man this is awesome like i'm having a good like this is i'm enjoying like this is awesome like you're looking i'm looking around at everything trying to think like oh let me remember that for if i ever tell a story let me remember that and then you just see like fucking stinger oh shit and he's like out of out of his face paint

you know he's just walking through the hotel with like his wife it's like i wouldn't recognize him well see i mean i would that's why it's such a big deal it's like holy hell it's it's a it's all a very wild thing it's always another another mask, right? Well, that's what, that one gift, that's what you're talking about. But when I get on those shows, I never know what they expect of me. I never know what they expect. Even now?

Well, because if you know anything about wrestling, every commentator, there's one good commentator and one bad commentator, right? The good commentator is on the good people's side. The bad commentator is on the bad people's side. Makes sense, yeah. For sense yeah for me it's like they don't tell me they don't do me anything they're just like you just act however the fuck you want to act and i'm like you got it so i just start firing shots at sam roberts poor sam's got no hope there but i'm like i don't know if that's so i i literally i go in there with zero direction it It's just like, all right, let's see what the brain thinks up here.

And the only thing I know is that I hate Adam Cole. Adam Cole I hate. I love EC3. Now he's on the main roster. Good for him. Me and Riddle. We're bros. Me and the Riddle are bros.

I think the Riddle's blown up a little bit more too, by the way, through the whole thing. So I don't know. Hopefully I'll get to see him again. And then I just take it as I go because i don't know any of them really so whenever they get up on the set normally that's the first time i'm talking to him and it's just like oh this guy either likes me or he doesn't because i think they all know about me it's just whether or not they like me or not i got a message from lars's people hilarious on twitter lars sull, who... Can't say it.

He looks like Shrek. I said it in the first one, and it's what got me in trouble. He looks exactly like Shrek. He's just this beast of a man, just a genetic freak. Literally, that's what he calls himself, is the freak. He's a genetic freak. And that's what I said to him. I didn't say it to him.

I said it to the TV. Next day, i woke up from to a tweet from lars saying i heard you had some disparaging things to say no no no so then i go down to the next show and i see him and it's like i'm a fucking like a little nerd in high school it's like i'm trying to stay away from this guy trying to hide from him because i don't know if he's really pissed off yeah yeah so finally i built up enough courage i was like what would evan foxy do smart he gets bullied all the time yeah lars is another example he's another result of the uh homo sapien having sex with the

neanderthal yeah he's one of the product there lars sullivan who else did we say? Oh, shit. You get it. Oh, AQ. AQ Shipley. He's a Neanderthal. Jason Witten? No, no, no. We're talking about physical, not brain. Look at his brow next time.

No, these guys have giant heads. Yeah, look. The Big Show. Yeah, real thick skulls. Big Show is another guy. You get it big shows you get it but you get it so i finally built up enough courage to walk by him didn't even look at me didn't even look at me so now when i'm up on that stage and i'm doing that show and the way my brain works everybody in here knows i'm like two sentences ahead in the back of my brain and then i'm just hoping that the

rest of my brain catches up in between and then the mouth does the thing so there's been a couple times on these takeover pre-shows where i have something cocked and loaded in the back i'm like oh here we go let's burn them down and then somebody in my brain like whips out like a yield sign he's like yeah we should think about this and then i'm like ah don't be he's great he's great it's fucking awesome man It's really cool I'm excited to get out there Foxy's coming Gonna be filming Behind the scenes a little bit

He'll get your creds Yeah I'm very excited Corbin did you come through With our creds for Super Bowl? Yeah On the way Look at you buddy What comes first

The cars or the creds? How about the cars? Cars are Probably get those before the credentials. Cars are soon, boys. Buffalo Wild Wings, I'm going to be doing some Radio Row stuff. I have that Buffalo Wild Wings thing down at Radio Row both on Wednesday and Friday mornings. So I think I'm going to be on Florio's show on Wednesday.

I think he said he's trying to make room. So I guess all these shows get booked like a month out. Sure, yeah. And we're trying to come in here like last week. Well, that's classic. Classic. I'm happy Buffalo Wild Wings is on the same page as us. I'm happy.

I'm happy Buffalo Wild Wings is on the same page as us. But so we're trying to get in. Florio's, they asked Florio if I could on Friday. I got a text from florio's like bud friday we got like 35 hall of famers coming through the show is there any other day you can come and i'm like and i do though dude if you can't have me no worries yeah i'm obviously gonna remember that next time we talk and he was like he actually responded like no no no no no he was like we'll do something for digital and we won't have any

time i was like let me see if we can go earlier in the week so we're gonna go wednesday and friday so i'm excited to see what we come up with and then we're posted up at top golf all afternoon shooting some incredible live stuff with wrangler i mean our super bowl week is about to be fucking dope yeah legit legit the wranglers we're going live on all of our social medias and YouTube, right, Z? Yep. IG, somebody would have to hold a cell phone. I mean, it's going to be a favorite stop of all these people that go through on their little media tour, you know what I mean?

It's going to be probably their favorite stop. I mean, I can hold a cell phone for IG. The only thing that IG won't have is the graphics, right? Correct. Well, why does Instagram got to fucking be like that, by the way? Well, you said that your guy over at, what do you call it, GoPro, so there might be a chance that Instagram doesn't allow that. Yeah, I think GoPro might be the game changer for the Instagram.

I don't know why Zuckerberg doesn't just like, yo, just do what everybody else is doing. Because we can stream live on Periscope, YouTube, and Facebook. And Facebook. It's not marked on. At the same times if we want. Instagram is the only one that doesn't allow it. They have to be their own source.

Yeah. Which I guess I respect that. I think they want to make it more personal. Yeah, I agree. Well, it makes sense. Yeah. They don't want it to be doctored up and shit like that. But Wrangler is-

Except for every fucking model's picture. Wrangler's setting us up to do a celebrity charity shootout. So it's the Wrangler Celebrity Charity Shootout at Topgolf where notables, both athletes and celebrities. Herschel Walker is locked in. That's one particular person who's going to be in. Some other names that I've been told that are coming. I don't even want to say because I don't want to let me down. Go ahead.

Go ahead. Some big fucking names. Go ahead. Go ahead. That's your thing. I'm not. I don't want to let people down. I don't want to let me down.

Normally, if I put something out there, I'm pretty sure of it. Okay. So I don't want to let anybody down, but some very large names are thinking about coming through. Like, for instance. I mean, if you were a for instance type of guy. Not a go-ahead guy. I think Tessitore is going to come through. I think Tessitore is going to come through.

Good pull. And I'll be live on a microphone while Tessitore is hitting 10 Topgolf shots to accrue points. Most points out of all the celebrities win $10,000 to their favorite charity in their name, blah, blah, blah, the whole thing, right? We're going to set up Top Gear. If you've ever seen it, we're going to have a scoreboard for everybody that's come through throughout the Thursday, Friday, Saturday,

or I think Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Wednesday. I think Thursday, Friday, Saturday. We're just going to be posted up at that Topgolf in Atlanta. It's going to be an absolute fucking blast. I can't wait for it. We're going to turn it into a party. Electric. Big party.

Some really big names, I've been told, are coming. Get it! Oh, yeah. I think it'll be funner than last year. I mean, doing radio live radio was awesome. It was awesome, but our time slot was tough. 10 to 12 was tough. Yeah, we had to wake up real early.

Seven. Drinking shots of whiskey with fish in them at like 8 a.m. Yeah. I feel like we had a pretty good party there. Oh, yeah. Oh, we did. Topgolf, we're going to be there all afternoon. I'm pumped up.

Big names. Big names. Big names. Hell yeah. Get it. Get it. All right, let's play it. You guess. I'll say if I think they're coming.

All right, Tony Romo. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know if Tony Romo. He's not on the list that I've been to. A.Q. Shipley. He's definitely in. I think he's playing for the Pat McAfee Foundation, actually. That's not on the list that I've been to. A.Q. Shipley. He's definitely in. I think he's playing for the Pat McAfee Foundation, actually.

That's his. It's a good ringer. Will Smith. Will Smith is not. He's filming in Atlanta, though. So maybe we put out a couple feelers to give Will Smith over there a swing cup. He might win the whole thing. Hey, bring Martin Lawrence over, too, guys.

I'd love to see Martin Lawrence. Patty Mahomes. Snoop. I don't think possibly Nice Yeah we'll see how that goes Snoop Dogg Is Vinatieri going down?

He'll probably be down there for some company And I would definitely blackmail him into coming What about your best friend? Aaron Rodgers? I guess his name has been floated out there I guess his name has been floated out there Perhaps He's a big time golfer

Oh yeah He could probably win it Raise money I guess his name has been floated out there. Perhaps. He's a big-time golfer. Oh, yeah. He could probably win it, raise money. He does that philanthropic stuff a lot. He would probably enjoy it. And we're going to be live during it. I think the thing I like about it most is we're just going to be popping in live on people's social media things out of nowhere. Hi, we're live with Aaron Rodgers at Topgolf.

He's going to be mic'd up. I'll be doing an interview while he's doing the shots. Be like a three to five minute thing. Winner gets money. I mean, it's a win-win. 18. I was going to say... No, his name. I was going to say Goff. I asked him to come on the show when he was in town. Yeah, but we can get some

Rams and... Aaron Donald, Penn Hills. There's names from those two teams. I don't think he's a big talker, though. Yeah, but if he's just playing golf, I could talk to him. I mean, Edelman's a fan of the show, right? Yeah, but Pat, hold on. You play in a Super Bowl.

If it's Thursday before the game, did you have the availability to go out to Topgolf, hit 10 shots, and you're playing in a Super Bowl in three days? Well, I think they're practicing in the afternoons. That's the only issue. If it was later, like if we were setting up six to seven, because they're probably still getting dinner with their families on Thursdays. You know what I mean?

I think I could swing somebody into like, hey, I think you should maybe just have dinner here. We'll get dinner for you. You know, I think I could talk them into it. Thursday, though, any game week, man. Thursday, Friday, you're with your family still. I mean, that's just the way it goes, you know? Kind of keep it as normal as possible.

As much as you can. That fucking Friday night before the Super Bowl was a wild moment. Just laying in bed. I can imagine. What about Saturday night? Saturday, we moved to a different hotel because Bill Pullian didn't like the hotel we were in.

Jeez. He thought the hotel was too loud, so he moved us to a different hotel, so we pick up and moved to another hotel. I feel like that's a wild move. Yeah. Yeah, it was. You were probably really comfortable.

You probably would have won if you didn't. Oh. Might have won, too, if we would have tried to go undefeated instead of losing. Yeah. You know, maybe there's some type of rhythm. I mean, was it a quieter hotel? It was definitely a quieter hotel.

I got a shitty fucking room. I mean, I was in a great room at the other one. Then we go to this new hotel, and it's just this tiny little old thing. Yeah, Chris. That after party would have been incredible. Dope. That was a hell of a setup they had. The lobby, the back patio, it was like 40,000 square feet set up for a party, basically, ready to go.

Jim Irsay was going to play the guitar, I guess, on stage, I had heard, afterwards. Paul McCartney was going to show up? I don't know of McCartney, but I think there was somebody from The Who that was going to come. Pete Townshend. Yeah, I believe somebody from The Who was going to come. Good halftime show they had that year. I was putting the balls over.

That's pretty cool. I felt like I was definitely going to go kick balls over. What's your meals beforehand, leading up to it? It doesn't matter? Definitely, I go kick balls. What's your meals beforehand, like leading up to it? It doesn't matter? I ate the same thing before every single game, both college and NFL.

I didn't like eating much before games. Rich Rowland used to say, don't eat a lot so you stay hungry. I think that's a mental thing, not a physical thing. Rich, what you're looking for. Interesting guy. I would make a bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit sandwich. Just one of them, though. Just one of them.

That's not good. Crazy. I'd get the scrambled eggs, and then I'd go get the American cheese, and then I'd get the bacon and put it on there. I would toast the biscuit, cut the biscuit in half, and then that was all I ate. Three pieces of bacon? Big meal after that? Yeah, it was three.

You got the X, and then you got the one down the middle. Any ketchup, mayo, nothing? No. Dry. Literally, the night before, I'd go ham, though. I mean, I'd go in the night before because I knew I probably wasn't eating

for another 24 hours. So the night before, I'd go very hard until the nutritionist came and changed. They ruined everything. Well, I'm sure it made everybody perform at a higher level. Maybe not.

I don't know. I ate a milkshake and pizza the night before. Every single one. I tried to diet this week. Games tomorrow. Might as well eat like shit. Shit my brains out in the morning. Ambien every night, night before the game.

Always took an Ambien. Always. Watched Saturday Night Live every single Saturday night because there's nothing else on TV. Normally on the Ambien still wondered why these people were on television that might have been the reason why I retired to be honest

watching Saturday Night Live every week like these motherfuckers are making a lot of money they're terrible put a camera in his room we can do a better TV AQ borrowed my Ambien one time he was an easy sleeper and he borrowed the ambient from me he came down he's like you got an extra ambient i'm

like i got you man so he goes back up in the room i get a call from him an hour and 15 minutes later it's a face time and his eyes are wide open he's like bro am i supposed to be tripping right now he's like the walls and i like, what are you talking about? He's like, I took the Ambien. I didn't fall asleep. I think I fought it too much. And it feels like this hotel might fall over. I was like, what are you?

Just close your eyes, man. He's like, how? And his eyes are like peeled open. I was like, just lay down, man. It's going to stop. And he was like, I don't know. And he just hung up on me. And then the next morning i see him

at breakfast and he like walks in you know he's got his fucking crocs on i'm like how did it end last night he was like i'm never doing that again good to see you buddy he's hilarious the pro bowl is this weekend yes we got into it there with taylor lawan a little bit about the pro ball how nobody gives a fuck and now he's literally bartering deals for DNs. My Pro Bowl experience was not a great one. I mean, I did not love it. I did not enjoy it. And Clay Matthews tried to fucking ruin it completely.

I mean, Clay Matthews attempting to block a punt in a Pro Bowl is the biggest hard-o move I've ever experienced in my entire life. Easy. Scumbag. I like Clay Matthews. Is it harder than Sean Taylor absolutely wiping out? It's a fake punch. But he was actually running.

Yeah, yeah. Like, he's actually running. Now, granted, I feel like Mormon should have maybe zigged at some point. Just zigged at some point. He's so tiny, too. Bro, that's like if somebody sets up, like, a charge. Like, they're trying to take a charge, and you're at half court. And you're running, and that person is just standing underneath the hoop that's almost

what that is like because he comes flush taylor comes flying in from 40 yards away and mormon doesn't even think about avoiding him it's just like they're too there wasn't even a thought of avoiding him and i think sean taylor was going to sell out regardless whether or not he moved or not and it just so happened that mormon chose not to move and he got murdered and boy the nfl loves posting that it's not great for them uh i wish we would have done a fake i wish we would have done numerous should have well nobody on your team wants to try either it's like who am i throwing the fake to nobody on my team wanted to try either. It's like, who am I throwing the fake to? Nobody on my team wanted to try either.

I tried talking Andrew Luck into playing in the fourth quarter instead of Andy Dalton because there was like a $30,000 bonus on the line. And we were down like six, I think, or like one score. J.J. Watt's on the sideline. Luck's on the sideline. T.Y.'s on the sideline. Everybody's on the sideline. And Andy Dalton's in the game for this game-winning drive.

So I look at Luck. I'm like, why are you not in the motherfucking game? Were you not the first pick of this draft? There's $30,000 on the line right now. Luck's like, no, no, no. He didn't want to be rude to Andy Dalton or whatever. So JJ Watt pipes in. He goes, you go in.

I'll go in. I'm like, look, we got a tight end. That's our look around. I'll go in, too. You can put me a wide in, I'll go in. I'm like, look, we got a tight end. That's how I look around. I'll go in too, man. You can put me a wide receiver. I'll go in. And Andrew just walks away like pissed off. And then Andy does what Andy does.

We lose. I think he threw a pick. I don't know what happened. And I go to Andrew and I go, thanks. And I just walked away. And that's roughly our last conversation. I think you could have talked one gunner. That's all you needed was one gunner into a fake. I know would have been nice with it but that gunner is getting blocked by the

other special teams guy who's not trying no he he is trying that guy's only there it was slater i think was on the other team and we had justin bethel so those two special teams guys yeah they are those two are trying like because that's their their only role is there for that and there's no way like our guy Bethel I think tried to block Vinatieri's field like extra point and they put the skinny uprights in the day of the game Vinatieri had no idea that they were going to put in skinny

uprights so they actually did it for the Pro Bowl they made smaller uprights Vinatieri missed like an extra point and something else it was the year he was almost perfect too like the greatest year of his else. It was the year he was almost perfect too. Like the greatest year of his fucking career. And as soon as he gets out for the Pro Bowl, they make like these gimmick fucking uprights.

He's like, what is this? What the fuck is this? It was like Arena League uprights to put in. It was bullshit. Absolute bullshit. He wasn't on my team either. He was on the other team. Would have been nice to get a photo,

you know, maybe hold a ball for him in Pro Bowl. You know, maybe him cheering me on's Clay Matthews trying to block him. Instead he was cheering for Clay Matthews. Thanks, NFL. You got it. Glad you had a good time. I had a great time. Wish we could have you back.

Yeah. I sat out the last one. Taylor LeJuan made fun of people that sit out of the Pro Bowl. You were injured, though. I did. I did have a dislocated kneecap. But Ursae did the right thing. Ursae did a really cool thing.

I had a substantial bonus for me to make a Pro Bowl. Added it into my last contract. And I made the Pro Bowl. But I had a dislocated kneecap. And I couldn't walk for the last six weeks. Any day I would kick in practice or a game. I just couldn't walk afterwards. I was just in bed.

Miserable. Completely fucking miserable. I just couldn't walk afterwards. I was just in bed, miserable, completely fucking miserable, getting fined for fucking photos during Thanksgiving. Like just everything was, all signs were pointing towards like, I hate everything about this. So then I make the pro bowl while miserable, dislocated kneecap,

have a great year, probably the best year of my life. And I was so excited i'm like cool i made it it's a huge bonus too i get a huge bonus here this is awesome so i go in the next day for the trainers uh after our season ends a week before or a couple weeks before the pro bowl and i go can i get that scan for my knee the thing fucking hurts i can't walk yeah find out dislocated kneecap that was when i found out i didn't know earlier and the year. I was like, oh, shit. This is a real problem. And they're like, yeah, this is a real surgery.

You're going to need real surgery. I was like, okay. But I answered that I could play next week if there was a game. So if we're in the playoffs the next week, could I play? I was like, yeah, I've been playing on this for six fucking weeks. I could play. They're like, okay, but since you said you could play, like to get your bonus, you have to play in a pro bowl.

I'm like, well, I'm not training for three fucking weeks and not being able to walk fuck them that's what i said i said fuck them i won't go so then word got back to ursa that i wasn't going to the pro bowl and obviously his law team or legal team was like uh we don't have to pay him the bonus because he said he could play and he's choosing not to and then all of a sudden like three days later before the pro bowl even happened i i had my pro bowl check showed up at my house made the pro bowl bro yeah and i was like holy shit like i would say really cool because i know there's a lot of people in that building that were trying to get him not to fucking pay me yeah i know those people are gone by the way but because i didn't didn't play in it, he sent it to me.

It was very cool of him, though. That was just like a moment where I was like. Yeah, but you made the Pro Bowl, bro. You made the Pro Bowl. Yeah, you're goddamn right. He said something. All fucking on. Every media person wanted Marquette to make that.

I was having a year of my life, and every single fucking talk show was like, God, best partner in the game. And he dances and has character and charisma, too. And I'm like, he's motherfucking. Fuck you. I mean, I like Mark quite a lot, but I was like, I'm having the year of maybe the history of football. What gets you through that pain? Because, like, your broken knee, basically.

Oh, a turtle. Turtle. And then I would take some Advil. But I had to practice. So my issue was I had to practice. So if I didn't practice, I didn't have confidence going into the game. Soil. But I had to practice. So my issue was I had to practice. So if I didn't practice, I didn't have confidence going into the game. So I had to practice.

It was a nightmare because I wasn't going to go into pro bowl and just shit all over myself because I was like, I'm just going to do terrible. So I have to practice for the next three weeks. So that means I'm going to kick a ball and then I'm going to be bedridden basically

for the first three weeks of my off season. and I was like, that's not worth it It's not worth it and my mom and dad were like just three more weeks. We can't just do three more weeks Where was that one at our Orlando? Hmm still wasn't a why we're kicking like that's dumb question. Yeah, okay was kicking like By the way, my orthopedic surgeon gave me a lot of compliments That's good Was kicking like, by the way, my orthopedic surgeon gave me a lot of compliments. That's good. He said, if people were to look at this x-ray, they would wonder how they walk, let alone how they make the Pro Bowl punting a ball with his feet.

I was like, thank you. That means, look, you put that on paper. So I can put that on my fridge. Maybe get my dick sucked. You see this? You see this right here? So that's the whole thing. That's life.

It's great. Check out the Pro Bowl this weekend or not it's great check out the Pro Bowl this weekend or not actually check out the NXT TakeOver pre-show there you go time's out

I'm gonna have a good time I think it's 6 or 6.30 maybe 6.15 it's on every WWE social though they play it on their Facebook Twitter

they play it everywhere YouTube and then the TakeOver itself which is directly after is electric. These humans do Cirque du Soleil type shit. It's next level professional wrestling, sports entertainment. You have to get the network to watch that, though,

which is free for new subscribers. Free. For new subscribers. For a month, you also get the Elimination Chamber if we're going to go into full sell there. But the pre-show is broadcasted on a lot of social media platforms. So Saturday, 6.15, maybe 6.30. You're a little bored, go ahead and scroll on over there.

I'm going to be looking relaxed but professional. And I think I got some zingers. I don't know if I'm going to be able to work them in, but I think I got some zingers. I'm excited for it. That'll be cool. Saturday afternoon, got some football, too. Senior Bowl.

Oh, yeah? I played in the Senior Bowl. Friday afternoon. Dynamobile. NHL All-Star Skills Competition. Nice. And that's... Hockey time.

Hockey time. I got 6 p.m. I like the Skills Challenge, though. Yeah, yeah. It's the best thing. Every sport should only do the Skills Challenge. That's all they should do. Besides baseball.

Baseball could play the game yeah but the nba all-star skills challenge awesome the mlb skills challenges awesome give me the home run derby maybe you get some outfielders trying to throw a ball into a bucket you can add some more to it i mean granted the game matters whatever no it doesn't anymore yeah so the game doesn't even matter no like the nfl just give them a bunch of skills challenges because there's enough there's enough pride in those locker rooms you can get some people to try in these skills challenges like who's the fastest guy in the nfl used to do the fastest the fastest guy in the nfl is going to want to prove that he's

the fastest guy in the nfl it's just the way every single conditioning every single workout ends is if somebody says they're the fastest, who won it? This is just standard operation that they race. It's just the only way to handle it. Why not take advantage of that, knowing that they're going to give effort and pride is on the line? Maybe give them a little extra money for it. Let them do that.

Would you watch fastest pitcher? Yes. They would never do that. Never. They'd fucking pull a little fucking Tommy John right after. Hey, if they did longest punt, you're probably going to that Pro Bowl three weeks later. Well, and I wanted to do the quarterback.

I asked if I could get in the quarterback challenge. That was the first year where they started with the real quarterback thing. And I was like, oh, I would like to be in that. Is there any way I could be in that? And they were like, quarterbacks only. I was like, okay. And I can't walk. I'm fucking out. I was like, okay, and I can't walk. I'm fucking out.

I am out. I like the NHL skills challenge because they do hardest shot and shit. Yeah, hardest shot, fastest skater, all that good stuff. Accuracy. Accuracy is my favorite. When they're breaking plates. Oh, yeah. Love it.

I like the NHL skills challenge. Who's the guy that we had on? Jonathan Todd. John Scott. John Scott. Todd. I don't know how Todd came up with that. John Scott was the MVP of an All-Star game.

Correct. I think he's going to come on the show again pretty soon. He was good. Nice. Whenever hockey gets good again. He almost fucking died recently. What? He fell into a lake, a frozen lake.

Wow. He lives right down the street from my brother. I mean, fun fact. I don't want to one-up every situation. Yeah, go ahead. It's hard to do this. But I also fell through a lake as a child. Whoa.

You didn't have your cinder block. I wasn't attached to a cinder block. I wasn't doing it for strategy purposes like you. That's what happens when you don't. You fall in. See, I fell through because I didn't have the cinder block on my ankle like a digs. What were you trying to find out? See, I felt weird because I didn't have the cinder block on my ankle like a digs. What were you trying to find out?

I would throw the cinder block out to make sure that the ice was thick enough to walk on. And then you would just scurry up behind it, pick it up, throw it again. Not thinking, I might have just cracked all the ice that I'm getting ready to walk toward. And I'm about to get dragged to the bottom. Why was it tied? You can't lose it. It was a very cold one. The tideside's 50-50. I was also tied to a tree, though dragged to the bottom. Why was it tied? It was a very cold winter. You can't lose it. It was a very cold winter. The tideside's 50-50.

I was also tied to a tree, though, on the shore. We'd have been fine. What a tear job that was. Cinderblock dragging you down and the tree holding you up. It wasn't a smart time in my life. I fell through the ice, though. I actually fell through the fucking ice. Scary as fuck.

My dad took us ice fishing, me and my brother, way out in the middle of the pond. He parked, obviously obviously on land and i went to walk back to grab something to drink and i was all by myself i had the keys in my hand too oh geez oh yeah i get like 15 feet from shore probably 10 feet from shore crack i go right down like all the way to my titty i go all the way into my titty and i'm just holding the keys up in, and I'm just holding the keys up in the air. Good move. I'm just holding the keys up in the air like this, and the rest of the lake starts making some obvious noise,

like, oh, this child just fell into the water. It's a real freak-out moment. Yeah, and my head's outside on top of the thing, but my body's down. But you're athletic, though. Pretty athletic, yeah. I didn't have a hole in my eardrum at this time either, so I'm pretty comfortable.

That's pretty good. But it was cold as a motherfucker now. Pretty athletic, yeah. I didn't have a hole in my eardrum at this time either, so I'm pretty comfortable. That's pretty good. But it was cold as a motherfucker now. It's not crazy. Tim McAfee, looking like how he looks now, but probably a little bit more ripped up, sprints across the ice, and they tell stories about his footprint from him sprinting. It looked like Bigfoot was sprinting.

Snags me with one hand and pulls me out and drops me on shore, shore basically in a full sprint and then they take off all my clothes they wrap me up in a bunch of towels sit me in the car turn on the heater and then my dad goes back to fishing for like another like hour he came back like checked on me like you good i was like yeah he's like all right we got like 10 more minutes i'm bringing that story up yeah he's awesome oh on the drive down he literally just yeah because zito and my dad are driving to a place because we got a bunch of shit for the wrangler celebrity charity shootout just grabbed me snagged me out of the

fucking water it's incredible it was it was electric that That Senior Bowl, though, that Senior Bowl was good in theory. For me, it fucked me up. Where's that, Mobile? Yes. The home of Mardi Gras, Mobile, Alabama. And the leprechaun. That's what Mobile says. Anybody see the leprechaun, say yeah.

Say yeah! That Senior Bowl was bullshit for me, though. I didn't get invited to the Combine, so getting invited to the Senior Bowl was a huge deal for me. Field goal kicking. And when you field goal kick, somebody has to hold the ball for you. Thomas Morstead,

who is now the punter for the Saints, good friend of mine, was the Senior Bowl South. I was on the South team. I don't know why, to be honest. West Virginia, I guess. But he was the holder and he had never held before and nobody played catch with thomas morris that growing up he had the worst fucking hands in day one of the practice day one of the

senior bowl practice thomas who's a friend of mine at this point is like pat i am not a good holder and they just like are forcing him to hold because normally punters are holders that's just the way it goes so the first day of practice, the snaps are coming back. Jake Ingram was their snapper. He got drafted to the Patriots, but he got cut because he snapped the ball too hard. Really? He snapped the ball too hard. He was too – it was just a hard fucking snap.

So Thomas Morstad was back here just taking bullets, basically. So the ball would just fly back, hit his hand. Jake Ingram, incredibly, he was a talented guy. Something happened to him. I don't know what happened to him. Something happened to him,

but he snapped the ball way too hard. Like people told him that it would hit Thomas's hands. It would bounce on the ground. He would pick it up and hold it. And then I would kick. And this is my only time to kick for NFL scouts, right? Only time.

This is it. So we would have like seven minutes before practice starts when the scouts are at the field for the field to be used for special teams. So punt and field goal has to happen at the same time. This is the only time the scouts are going to see you. Even if the field is empty for two hours before the practice starts, there's no scouts there. It's just me on the field.

So these field goal periods turned into these – it was like a circus. The ball gets snapped back and hit Thomas like in his fucking face. And then he put it down and then I would kick it. And it was like, I did pretty well. I was making kicks. They were going through, but it wasn't like a NFL ball,

you know, like it wasn't going, it was, it was a tough thing. Whenever you have a bad hold, it's a tough operation. Thomas felt so terrible. Like Thomas felt so bad.

Cause he's such a nice guy. He has since learned how to hold. He holds now, but for the first five years of his career, he didn't hold. Who's the guy that played for the Bears? Mitch Daniels. They had Mitch Daniels hold. Chase Daniels.

Chase Daniels. Mitch. Mitch was the governor of Indiana. Former governor. They had Chase Daniels holding because Thomas couldn't hold. He couldn't catch. So it was a complete shit show. Complete shit show every single time

and then during practice there was nowhere to kick so i was just standing on the sideline for two and a half hours when this practice was happening nobody talking to me just standing there just me and thomas morris said just standing there for two and a half hours and then we get on a bus go back to the hotel nobody would talk to me go to my room wake up next day i have seven minutes to kick in front of the scouts. Holder can't hold. Got no shot. Got no fucking shot. Got no shot.

So during the practice, I started playing catch with Jake Ingram. And I started doing one-handed snacks. I was like, at least I can show off that I'm a little bit of an athlete. So then I get back after one of the practices, and one of the scouts from the team asked me if I was taking it serious enough since I was playing catch during practice. And I was like, well, I thought it was a way to kind of stay active since I couldn't kick any balls.

He was like, oh, okay. And he walks off. So I'm like, oh, there it is. I'm not going to make the NFL because I played catch. So in my mind, the Senior Bowl was like this huge opportunity for me. It was like the biggest thing ever. I'm going to go kick a couple 70-yard field goals. I'm going to fucking just bomb it here. We'll do good.

I'm not going to the Combine, so this is my only shot. And in turn, it was just like the biggest cluster fuck in the history. I talked to the Cincinnati Bengals coach. His name's Darren Simmons, I believe. Darren Simmons. Friend of mine now. He was the coach of the North. The Bengals were the coach of the North. Jaguars coach of the

South. They had just fired their special teams coach too, so we didn't have a special teams coach. So literally it was just a full-on waste of fucking time. So we did meetings with the North coaches though because they couldn't see the practices because they were with the North team the entire time. So I sit down with Darren, the Bengals special teams coach, and he goes, so what are you?

Are you a kickerer are you a punter because you got to be one or the other i was like i don't know i think i can do both i think i have the talent to do both if i was given the opportunity i think he said well you're in the senior bowl as a kicker so if i were you i would never punt a football again that's what he said to me exact words okay so i was like all right i'll take that to heart i appreciate you so much you know this is an nfl special teams coach this guy is a words. Okay. So I was like, all right, I'll take that to heart. I appreciate you so much. You know, this is an NFL special teams coach. This guy is a big deal, you know? And I was like, he starts talking to me more because I could tell he's like one of, he

was a guy, like a good guy, you know, we were having a good conversation. He was good dude. And he was like, I run the drills at the combine too. I'm excited to see you. I was like, I'm not invited to the combine. He was like, how are you in the senior bowl? And you're not invited to the combine. You have to be the only person in the senior. I was like, how are you in the senior bowl? And you're not invited to the combine. You have to be the only person in the senior bowl.

I was like, I am. Yeah, I actually am. I am the only person in the senior bowl that is not going to the combine. I think it was me and maybe one other person. He was like, I'm going to try to get you in there. I was like, thank you. He tried. It didn't work out.

So I didn't punt. I didn't punt. I didn't do it. I was like, this NFL coach just told me not to do it. Focus on this. We'll do this. So then obviously the coach drafted me to punt. It like a whole fuck okay we got a punt and then our first playoff our first preseason our first preseason ends against the cincinnati bangles

right and by that point i had already won my job they cut tim mastay the first uh preseason game i hit two 60 yard punts like my first two punts for the Colts were 60 yards and, like, 63 yards. Wait a minute, Tim Mastay. Yeah, he's a punter for the Packers. He was on the – he was – Well, Hunter Smith was – it was Hunter than you, wasn't it? Yeah, Hunter was cut. Tim Mastay was brought in to compete against me in my rookie year.

Gotcha. Special teams coach told me to my face, I wanted them to draft Tim. Bill Polian wanted you. So we're bringing Tim in to compete with you. I was like, oh, thanks, man. Appreciate that. I also have to learn how to fucking punt.

Tim is a natural punter. That's awesome. So that whole thing happens. Then we go through. I win the job. Second game was average. I was trying to hit another 60-yarder. So it was like I didn't do as great.

Third game I did well. Final game was against the Bengals. And in warm-ups, Darren, the special teams coach for the Bengals, walks over to me, you know, and I go, well, thank God I fucking punted a ball again, huh? I would have had a fucking job. And he starts laughing. He said, I would have never guessed.

He said, I would have never guessed. And he and I just have like, from that moment forward, it's like a really good really cool relationship and joe deacon millis who was with the cowboys he wanted me to do all three he wanted me to do all three he wanted me to come kick for the cowboys and then eventually punt and kick off and every time we played against joe deacon millis in any team that he was coaching for he was like i still think you could be the guy that could do all three i'm like thanks but my knees are saying no.

So I still have a little unfinished business with field goal kick. And we talked about this the other day. If this business has a good run for the next five to ten years and we make enough where I can cash out, I would not be surprised if I kick a field goal for some league somewhere, probably the NFL, if I can build up these legs long enough. But, yeah, the whole senior bowl to NFL process was crazy for me. And then I missed the fucking flight to the ESPN skills challenge the day after the senior bowl because we shut down fucking Mobile, Alabama.

Me and Jake, the long snapper, went out with like my dad and some other people, shut down the motherfucking bar. Flight was supposed to be at 7 a.m. out of Mobile, Alabama to Orlando for the ESPN skills challenge. I didn't wake up till probably 8.30 to 9. like a terrible person i was like great i just had the worst week of my life and now i just missed the flight for an espn thing there's no shot i go there but we burned that town down we had a good time i showed up 20 minutes before the skills challenge started i didn't even know the rules i had to ask for the rules graham get out i was like what are the rules

uh you just got to do it all in a certain amount of time I was like do we take the steps he's like well that's part of the strategy I was like I don't think I've ever rushed through like eight kicks

what do you think I got to do he was like I don't know yet I was like did you guys get a practice run he's like yeah earlier today I was like great I won it

by the way was Connor Lee in that too or was it just you and Giddos yeah Connor was in there because Connor was texting me from the rules thing he's like where the fuck are you? I was like, Bob, Mobile, Alabama only has like four or five flights out of it a day.

I got to go to this place to get to Orlando. Conor was like, all right, here's the rules, basically breaking it all down to me. I missed all the swag, so they gave out a bunch of swag to everybody. Oh, no. But by the time I got there, there was nothing left. So it was like, it was already picked through. Everybody went back for the second. So I got nothing. I got nothing from the ESPN Skills Challenge. there, there was nothing left. So it was like, it was already picked through. Everybody went back for the second. So I got nothing.

I got nothing from the ESPN skills challenge. Couple of smalls left. Yeah, exactly. I got a size 15 Under Armour shoe. Size 15 Under Armour boots. And I think that was about it. Maybe it was a medium shirt, I think. Yeah, it was wild.

It was, my whole NFL process was awesome. It was a lot of fun. It was a blast. But I did win the Around the World Challenge. Oh, it was wild. It was, my whole NFL process was awesome. Yeah. It was a lot of fun. It was a blast. But I did win the Around the World Challenge. Oh, there you go. That was the first one. And then there was a long distance one that I should have won.

I pushed them 50 yard or right. Graham Gano won it. But I was swinging though. I mean, I was, I mean, I was still partially pretty hungover from Mobile. I bet. Yeah.

So the swing lube was, you know, like when you're golfing, it was still in there. I was still partially pretty hungover from Mobile. I bet, yeah. So the swing lube was, you know, like when you're golfing? It was still in there. I was whacking footballs. That Around the World thing was pretty cool. I think we still have some, my parents have some footage of it. They played it. And McShay?

Todd? Todd? Todd? Todd. He picked me to win. Oh, that's good. All right. And I think there's even like a slight –

I think one of them make like a slight comment, like the guy who missed like all of the meetings, the guy that didn't show up on time. We saw McShay out one time here for the Combine. Very nice guy. Very nice guy. He seemed like a great dude. He picked me to win.

I like that. That was good for you. Hey, we got to go – when Combine's here, we got to go to the OTB, which is literally like, what, six blocks away from here, if that? Every coach, well, every assistant coach. They're betting on horses? Is at the OTB during the Combine. It's great.

Really? What's the OTB? Off-track betting. Betting on horses. Like, I go in there, Sexy Rexy's in there. He's in Buffalo. He's got his whole crew with I go in there, Sexy Rexy's in there. He's in Buffalo. He's got his whole crew with him. I mean, everybody.

Rexy, right? Yeah, everybody's there. Hey, I've heard his name potentially. Oh. Oh. Now he's got a new job, though. Yeah, but I saw that. No, he didn't get it.

Yeah, that there was some blowback on ESPN that he hasn't been offered the chief job yet. Yeah, someone else got it. So he was trying to do the classic Gruden. Someone else was off. Rex Ryan was trying to do the classic Gruden where Gruden would always tell. There it is. Yeah, Spagnola.

Gruden would always release information that some team was looking to hire him through ESPN, and then ESPN would have to renegotiate his contract for Monday Night Football to pay him more. Rex Ryan was trying to do that? I think so, yeah. Okay, I just want to let you know that if Rex Ryan is doing this Wrangler thing, we will get

to the bottom. We will get to the bottom of that. Rex Ryan's one of the most intriguing humans on earth, though. The guy said he didn't even feel bad for Cody Parker. You didn't even feel bad for the guy? Not a little bit. You didn't feel bad for him? I mean, he feels terrible about it.

I'm not even talking about him being a kicker. I'm not talking about him being a quarterback. Just as a human, you didn't even feel bad for him? I mean, he feels terrible about it. I'm not even talking about him being a kicker. I'm not talking about him being a quarterback. Just as a human, you didn't even feel bad for him? That's an interesting... I think Kwon Kwon said that's his job, right? To make that like... Yeah, yeah. I understand, but if somebody's... I felt bad for Tom Brady

when he dropped that pass last Super Bowl. I felt like that was his job. I didn't. Yeah, fuck him. I did. Sorry. You felt bad for yourself So you guys just have no compassion Not for him Why? His life is fine

Whether he catches that pass or not His life is fine Well he ain't Going nowhere He ain't Going nowhere You fucked up though Nowhere. He ain't going nowhere. You fucked up the world.

When we go slower. I'll never listen to that song again in my life. Was that him saying that Gronk isn't retiring? No, I think it's just them doing the still here. They're going to take Gronk out back and fucking shoot him after this season. I mean, granted, if the Chiefs do win that game, Gronk definitely comes back because that interception goes off his hands and to whoever catches it. Just like Drew Brees.

Drew Brees cannot retire after what has happened. Both Diggs mentioned the Minneapolis miracle, and then the blown call is how the last two seasons of Super Bowl-ready Saints teams have lost. That's terrible. Drew Brees can't retire. There might have been a chance. Gronk, same thing, couldn't retire there if that happens.

But now, I mean, three Super Bowls in a row. That song does say, we ain't going nowhere. This year. That's right. They were going to put that in. No, but then it says, bad boys for life. It's not bad boys for life. Stop bad boys for life. Todd, I didn't know you had rap skills.

Oh, yeah. You're going to break my... Your fucking radio voice. That's right. Those rap skills. Have an incredible weekend. We all appreciate you so much. Heartland Radio 2.0 tomorrow.

The next round is coming out right now. St. Patrick's Day, we got some heat coming. Heat. Be ready for it. Heat coming. We got some St. Patrick's Day heat coming. It's my entire life I've been taught that St. Patrick's Day is just like Christmas. It is.

Just like Tim McAfee, actually, whenever he was running his own operation, it was the only day he shut down operation was for St. Patrick's Day. This is a huge holiday for this business. St. Patrick's Day is a huge holiday for us. It's beer Christmas. And it's our job to supply you with incredible stuff to wear so you can win St. Patrick's Day just like we're going to

for the 31st straight year. I don't know about Gorman. Well, the last St. Patty's Day that I celebrated, I spent 22 hours in jail. I don't look at it fondly as you guys. By the way, that's St. Patrick's Day. Those types of things can happen at St. Patty's. Part of the fun. By the way, that's St. Patrick's Day. Those types of things can happen at St. Paddy's. Part of the fun.

And as somebody who has celebrated St. Patrick's Day in Ireland and in America, very happy that I'm celebrating it in America. Ireland, they do celebrate it, but it's like all night before, all night before into the morning, and then a parade happens and everybody sleeps. So I was in a town where the night before the bar was open all night, we're at the bar all night, and then the morning you and everybody sleeps so like i was in a town where the night before the bar was open all night we're at the bar all night and then the morning you're like trying to keep it going and then the parade happens and then the entire town is quiet everybody just goes to sleep right after that so it's much different yeah you know saint patrick's day is

a kegs and eggs holiday here in america there in ireland they go all through the night now granted some other towns in ire Ireland might do it differently. That was just the town that I was in. And I was also called a stupid Yankee 45 times. Stupid Yankees. You don't even like the Yankees. What's that? You don't even like the Yankees.

I don't mind the Yankees, just for future reference. That wouldn't happen in Italy, by the way. No, we would never do that. Ireland was the worst I've been treated. Aside from france obviously paris austria because if you want to know how somebody feels about america i've said this you just send me into that country because i look exactly like a stereotypical american everything i wear is stereotypical american the way i carry myself as a stereotypical american

and then when you drop me in a foreign country i can tell you immediately the pulse on how they feel about me. The French are the worst. The worst. Absolute worst on earth. You're French, aren't you? You're French, aren't you? That might not be to everybody, but as a stereotypical looking American, I have been treated very poorly

in the French country. The France country. Morocco, a French speaking country, treated France country. Morocco, a French-speaking country, treated me well. I was treated well everywhere except for France. Do you add an accent when you're over there so they don't think you're American?

I do. Which is a shame because Paris is gorgeous. Yeah, but I think when you're over there you kind of have a little Middle Eastern thing going on there. I have an American accent there. So what happens when I walk into a place a little Middle Eastern thing going on there? They're probably scared a little bit. I have an American accent there. Yeah. So what happens when I walk into a place,

everybody just looks at me, and they go, oh, there's an American right there. Literally, as soon as I walk in, you see the entire place. In Ireland, it's all pubs. It's all pubs. They got live music in the corner.

It's a pub. There's a tiny little dance floor. They play the fiddle. And there's a bunch. It's either a fiddle or somebody on a piano or a guitar or something like that. I walked into a couple places in these small little towns. And the person playing the music even stopped. They looked at me and they're like, look at this fucking Yankee here.

And then I'd walk up to the bar. I wouldn't get service. They would serve everybody else. It's like, yo, I could see you. And then he'd finally come over to me. And they would say, Yankee, what do you want? And I was like, I'll take a Guinness, man. I guess that's what I could see you. And then he finally come over to me and they would say, Yankee, what do you want? And I was like, I'll take a Guinness, man. I guess that's what I'm drinking here.

I mean, that's what you guys drink or whatever. And I'd get like a deep sigh and he was sliding over to me. And then they would throw like the fucking check at me. And I'm like, my name is Patrick McAfee. What the fuck? Can we get a little bit of a homecoming here? We're in County Cork. Have a little respect for my grandparents.

Jesus. They were assholes to me though. They really really were you go to the wrong bar and that's exactly how it was it was i've never felt more uncomfortable in some places than try walking into a bar in ireland with you know six long hairs let's go have a beer yeah everybody's in there wrong they're just like record stops what are long hairs guys with long hair in the band. Long hairs. Oh, yeah. But they love American music. Not all of them. The lead singer was hocking loogies on the... Was spitting on the window because we were treated so bad.

So that's the reason why I... Exactly. Because you're fucking people. Not mine. Long hairs. Long hairs. Ruined it for all of us. That's what you guys call the band's people?

The long hairs? Yeah, long hair. Grab a long hair. We got to, you know, yeah. So you're the reason why I was treated like shit now. Probably. There was one guy that, like, followed me out. I went to another place.

He, like, followed me into the place. That was a buddy of mine. That's the guy. I was like, why are you? I actually stopped and told the guy, I was like, why are you following me, man? And he was like, I'm not following you, mate. And I'm like, you, yep, you clearly are. And then that was like, is there a problem?

And it's like, I'm not going to start a fight in this guy's fucking town. You tried two-stepping him? Juke him out? Maybe that's why you didn't go and accept their customs. I think you're supposed to go there, get drunk, and fight. Well, I did get drunk. Wait, is Fox going to say he fought there? No, no, no.

But when I was there, literally a 14-year-old kid ran up to another 14-year-old kid, socked him in the face, ran away, and the kid just started crying, and everyone just acted like it was normal. Everybody there was drunk. Now, that is the most stereotypical stereotype that is 100% accurate. Everybody I saw in Ireland was drunk. is 100% accurate. Everybody I saw in Ireland was drunk.

There was a 90-year-old man who was trying to get out of the pub we were in like this, and he was spinning on the wall, and they had the door open. He got to it, and it just literally, wham, disappeared out the fucking door. And the whole place had a laugh like that,

and then right back to it. And then that guy stood up probably an hour and a half later. I had no idea and just walked away. I was like, man, this place is wild. He probably came back like nine hours later. There was a guy like that at the bar we used to go to in Pittsburgh. It would just fucking stumble out like that every single time. The wall was literally holding him up.

He was holding. At one point, I wanted that to be me older in life. Not anymore. There's still time. Big goals to be me older in life. Not anymore. There's still time. Big goals. Still a lot of opportunity. Yeah. Don't do it.

Just to be a. You don't know how it's going to end up. Just to be a regular at a bar. Or a town drunk. He wore pretty much the same outfit every day. I think his name was Frank, ironically enough. He was drinking vodka straight. Drinking vodka.

Yeah. Vodka straight. Vodka neat. Sometimes on the rocks. Wow. I think we like that guy. Yeah. He was a miserable prick, though.

Never would have guessed, right? I feel like if you're drinking like that every day, there's something you're trying to keep down there. And I feel like that was literally the entire country of Ireland. Blarney Castle's a bunch of bullshit, too. Didn't go. Go see the Blarney Stone. Yeah.

We gotta kiss it. You gotta kiss the Blarney Stone. Yeah, but you gotta stand in it. What they don't tell you about is this circular stair way that you have to do in an old time castle yeah that's built for fucking like foxy to get through yeah and you just gotta go like inch by inch because there's an entire line of you americans trying to kiss this little fucking stone that literally they do this to kiss it yeah then you. Then you walk and then kiss it. You know locals are fucking spitting on that too

because they know Americans are coming to kiss it. Oh, they shit on it. Yeah, but they got a little towel that they do this to, so I know it's clean. That would be funny if there was an elevator for locals and they just put all the Americans go up that stairway. That's where I saw the blind guy. I saw a blind guy sightseeing.

I lost my fucking mind. Have a great weekend. Radio 2.0 to the right. Cheers. Everyone look to your left. You guys look...
