Mauro Ranallo, the Spanish announced team, and myself all hopped in an Uber
Starting point is 00:06:11 after the takeover. Drove back to the hotel and I was wide awake on Friday night after the NXT team. He held an Uber, right? He held it himself. Yeah, he held it. We're looking for an infinity. Is that the infinity? We're outside with all the fans.
Starting point is 00:06:28 There's a Mamma Mia chant happening. For those of you who don't know what that is, Mauro Ranallo is the play-by-play guy for NXT, WWE's NXT. He's also the play-by-play guy for basically any big combat sport event of all time. Floyd Mayweather, McGregor, he was there. You name it, he's called it he's just a magician with his voice and it echoes no matter where he's a fucking good guy but we're running around in the rain trying to trying to uh what's that called hail nope yeah yeah yeah find the uber
Starting point is 00:06:59 that we're supposed to be at it was a wild scene we get back to the the hotel i'm dead tired right we it was a long day at the arena those those the hotel i'm dead tired right we it was a long day at the arena those those tapings with the wwe are long days but you're just hanging out at an arena just waiting around you said it man you're just waiting around you're just sitting there waiting around there's a lot of passing time i just imagine you don't have anything to do there you're not allowed to leave i mean you actually have shit to do we were just like well all right strap in so do the show go back do the thing with uh morrow and the spanish announced team which is they speak english by the way that was awesome really
Starting point is 00:07:32 hey hey i started checking the twitter man wrestling people hate me i i honestly and i'm not saying this for a pity situation i am not saying this for a pity situation i have been very forthcoming and forthright that i'm not for everybody i come in i come in very strong i'm coming in i'm gonna be very confident no matter what i know who i am i'm always gonna be in these wrestling fans hate me man and i have a nice little life on the internet like i enjoy the little community that we have created here on the internet. I'll put out a tweet. If you don't like it, we're at the point where people just don't respond to me anymore.
Starting point is 00:08:12 So it's like mostly a pretty positive little situation. People talk about the toxicity of Twitter. I'm like, I don't even know what you're talking about, man. And I stare at my notifications all day. It's a very positive time. Friday, late night, Saturday morning, about 1 a.m., I couldn't sleep after the wwe thing i was getting a lot of hate in there from them wrestling fans and it was it was bloggers you know a lot of tweets from bloggers so they got like 5 000 followers 6 000 followers but i'm handcuffed because i'm not allowed to respond so i think that was my biggest problem
Starting point is 00:08:39 is that i was just getting pounded by these super nerds like these people that i scrolled through their profiles and they did not want me to reply. I mean, I would have went off on a two, three tweet tangent that probably would have made them quit Twitter. But I did. I did. I just kept to myself, and I just read it, and I ate it. I'm like, man, these wrestling people hate me.
Starting point is 00:08:58 Hey, keep your emotions off the internet. Hey, Antonio Brown said it best. I mean, Antonio Brown said it best. Keep your emotions off the internet. We will get to that. But then Saturday happened. It was the Hall of Fame. Bret Hart got attacked by a guy, obviously.
Starting point is 00:09:12 Insane. What a moment. Got his ass beat. Hey, Travis Brown, Ronda Rousey's husband, almost beat his motherfucking ass into the ring. If you watch the tape back, Travis Brown, who's a mixed martial art fight mixed martial artist badass of an individual he's also six foot six with this goatee and he wears shit kickers every
Starting point is 00:09:31 single day like whether you like ronda rousey as a ww character or not or the way she was a fighter or whatever she married a fucking animal that couple right there if they go to a couple's night and there's something that breaks off, everybody's dead. And they didn't know. Ronda Rousey and Travis Brown win in every single situation I could see. But he beat the guy into the ring. And that made me wonder. I wonder how many people are watching it like, oh, this has got to be a work.
Starting point is 00:09:57 You know what I mean? We thought about it. We thought about it for a second. And I said to myself, why Brett, though? Yeah, Brett Hart would be the last one they would try to screw over again again exactly again so travis brown beats him in there by the way if you see it it's like uh it's a it was incredible i think but i think travis brown's over by the new day was right after though right like new day they came they came flying in yeah but the guy got his ass kicked as he should have i mean streakers are a thing of the past just take
Starting point is 00:10:23 it easy bro that's not about you you hate the Just tweet about it. You don't have to actually show up at it. Nobody wants to see you, you fucking weirdo. I found him on Twitter immediately, though. I knew who it was. And I took a screenshot of his last tweet. It was with a picture, and he was standing upside down with the same hat on with clown makeup on. And he was tweeting at Vince McMahon
Starting point is 00:10:40 or Triple H, like these obscenities. And I sent it over to old Nicky Tweets. I was like, yo, this is the guy, I think. I was like, I want to let you know, I did the detective work. Tell the cops I figured out who the guy is. He was like, yeah, he's in custody, man. Like, we know who he is.
Starting point is 00:10:57 So fast forward to Sunday, okay? This is the final day. WrestleMania. Big day. Big day for everybody yep we had been told on friday that the rv potentially makes an appearance during the kickoff show of wrestlemania to showcase the people are filing in to metlife parking lot to tailgate for the grandest stage of the mall the biggest event of the year wrestlemania so what had to happen the rv grandest stage of the mall, the biggest event of the year, WrestleMania. So what had to happen? The RV had to get to the stadium.
Starting point is 00:11:28 What happened at the stadium? We'll talk about it in a minute. Let's talk about my WrestleMania day. I go over. We have a bus at like 8.30. Ends up leaving a little bit later than that. We get over to the stadium. I hang around all day.
Starting point is 00:11:40 I had a tux. I had a tuxedo top. Good-looking tux. We all saw the tuxedo top I got. Gorgeous. We've told the story. It was me and six high schoolers getting their prom tux i had a tuxedo top looking tux we all saw the tuxedo top us i got gorgeous we've told the story it was me and six high schoolers getting their prom tuxes i got that tux for wrestlemania at the same goddamn macy's i had tuxedo shorts by the way i was told specifically no jorts oh yeah oh yeah no jorts so i said you know what. Wear pants. No jorts. So I said, you know what? I'm not going to wear jorts on WrestleMania.
Starting point is 00:12:09 WrestleMania deserves a little bit more. You know what I mean? Yeah. Of course. So we took tuxedo pants, and what did we do? Made them tuxedo shorts. Yeah. So the show is supposed to go live at 5 o'clock,
Starting point is 00:12:22 the kickoff show for the WrestleMania. WrestleMania. On USA Network, by the way. I had three little parts on the kickoff show. Very excited to be a part of that. Just a year ago, I was pumped just to be announced for the NXT pre-show. Now Michael Cole is putting me on the WrestleMania pre-show, which is a kickoff show, which is incredible. This is awesome.
Starting point is 00:12:44 One year. In the middle of MetLife Stadium, 80,000 people there. Let's go. So we had like five rehearsals scheduled. None of them happened until about 4.15, 45 minutes before then. I'd been sitting in Gorilla
Starting point is 00:12:56 for about two, three hours at this point, just waiting for rehearsal to happen. Less than 10 feet away from Vince McMahon the entire time. Didn't say a single word. He looked busy. So I didn't say anything. I was just sitting over there.
Starting point is 00:13:08 We finally do the rehearsal. I come back in for the rehearsal, and it's Michael Cole on the phone panicking with the entire McMahon family in the gorilla. I believe there's a couple other superstars in there. Celebrities are in there. And I just start getting yelled at by Michael Cole in front of all these people. Like, you know whenever you're a child in like the grocery store and you knock
Starting point is 00:13:28 over everything and your mom like yells you in front of everybody oh yeah that was connor yeah it happens on a regular basis four weeks ago yeah that yep exactly that happened to me just a couple just a day ago just yesterday by michael cole for wearing shorts um he said i told you no no shorts. I said, you told me no shorts. He said, you look unprofessional. You look sloppy. He was like yelling at me in front of all these people that I've looked up to for so long. So I looked at Michael Cole.
Starting point is 00:13:53 I said, they're tuxedo shorts, man. And he said, you look terrible. He was like yelling. This wasn't like a rib or like a gimmick. You could tell there was actual panic. I'd been wearing this outfit for 10 hours at this point. So now we're 45 minutes before i show that i feel like i could have been told earlier and also potentially not getting yelled at in front of everybody else that's there you know what i mean right so i i told michael call okay i gave him like you know okay
Starting point is 00:14:18 and then walked out of gorilla and then i walked back to where the watch along was happening and i grabbed my bag and i told uh the digital guy i said hey you tell michael cole same thing that happened by the way with an old gm same thing that happened with oh yeah you could tell michael cole to go fuck himself i am leaving right i am not getting punked and yelled at like a child in front of everybody like that you guys think i'm some schlub you guys think i'm just this is a second job to me i'm very lucky to be here very excited to be here but i'm not just gonna get yelled at like i'm a fucking child in front of people so the digital guy who had set up a five-hour watch-along show was like is there any way that we can maybe not have you leave right now i'm like no i don't know i don't give a fuck
Starting point is 00:14:58 about any of this i'm not gonna get punked like a little child in front of a bunch of people he's like i'll go talk to vince mcmahon okay so this all happened in front of vince mcmahon right though so i'm i don't even know if he even realized it was happening because he has 4 000 things happening he's gonna set up a whole show so digital guy just quarantines me basically in the back of the watch long room i call you guys tell you hey i'm about to fuck you i'm out of here oh yeah we're ready i don't play these games i don't this is this is gonna be the death of me i said this a lot of times it's gonna be the death of me if i feel like you've disrespected me you might as well just be dead to me it's just i i've been blocking people and unfriending people for a long time and it doesn't
Starting point is 00:15:36 take much if i feel like you've slighted me at all you fuck me once you'll fuck me again is exactly how i look at it if you've done it once whenever I've done a lot for you, you're going to do it again. If you even think you could do that, I have an issue with that. So he quarantines me in his back room. I took a picture of myself. It was the child's room. It was like no, it was in a MetLife stadium
Starting point is 00:15:58 where the babysitters are. If the player has a kid, they put him in this little... I took a picture of myself because it was so ridiculous. There was's like a pink playhouse was like legos and stuff legos pink playhouse there's like a couple like uh uh cradles and shit in there and i'm just sitting with my legs up on one like just threatened to walk out on wrestlemania and i'm like this is a joke i take a selfie of me like literally holding my hand up. This is outrageous. I'll post that tomorrow, obviously. So digital guy texts me and says, I'm coming back.
Starting point is 00:16:29 Don't move. We're 16 minutes before the kickoff show is supposed to go live on USA Network. I'm still fuming because I started thinking about it more and more. So I just started thinking about it more and more. The Impractical Jokers were there. I love the Impractical Jokers. I watch them all the time. Akbar Baha, Bia Mila, Bia Mila.
Starting point is 00:16:48 You've got a couple of vowels. American Ninja Warrior guy. He's there. He watches this happen. I mean, this is all happening. It was just in my head, I'm like, why would you ever do that? I feel like it's my job to potentially make fun, you know, make fun of people publicly. But I do it in a fun manner.
Starting point is 00:17:07 I was getting scolded like I was an eight-year-old. And I'm like, I don't, hey, hey, hey, I don't fuck with that. I don't play those games. So I'm sitting in that little child's room, you know, just like about to throw a full temper tantrum, about to grab a diaper over here. And I got this shit just running through my head like, this is what I've always dreamed of. Yeah, you, Pat, you're not going to be no bitch. You're not going to sit here and just take it. just running through my head like this is what i've always dreamed of and here i'm uh yeah you pat you're not gonna be no bitch you're not gonna sit here and just take you're gonna walk out of here you know there's no way you could just sit there and take that and then i was like yeah it is wrestlemania though i mean that's pretty cool
Starting point is 00:17:35 this is where you've been and i'm like torn at this moment i'm like nah man you walked out on six mil because a guy fucking disrespected you're definitely gonna walk out of wrestlemania for this for sure and then all of a sudden, digital guy and Michael Cole come back. Vince McMahon told them, and this is what I was told, that they showed him a picture of LeBron James wearing a short suit. And Vince McMahon said,
Starting point is 00:17:55 yeah, I'm hip. I've seen it. And I guess Vince said he loved it. Vince said he loved it. And then the only issue was Vince asked where I was going to be, and they were like, oh, he's out here on the stage. Why is he on the stage?
Starting point is 00:18:09 We're not showing the stage until. So they actually got in trouble. Oh, yeah. So that whole situation actually flipped, and they ended up getting. So that's why if you watch the pre-show at all, our back was to the crowd. It wasn't originally supposed to be that way. It was supposed to be our back was to the big-ass Tron, so we could talk about how big and massive and incredible that 4k tron was
Starting point is 00:18:29 which was literally it seemed like it might have been a hundred yards wide i i don't i don't know how they do it how they don't get a glitch you know like when your tv has like a little bit of a thing they don't have that a couple dead pixels yes it makes no sense to me so they come back michael cole comes back gives me one of the realest apologies i've ever got in my entire life he tells me you know it's been a long week we're gonna lot going on i saw you i thought this was gonna ruin it for you to be honest he said i thought he's he like gave me like a real real stress levels were high for everybody that's fair well and he told me that he thought i was gonna ruin it for myself because he wants me to do a
Starting point is 00:19:02 lot with the wwe he thought i was gonna ruin it for vince seeing me in shorts and being like who is this but instead complete opposite it's also a nice pivot yeah well what's that on his part well yeah it is for sure but it was well you guys are friends well that's probably what he was thinking because he did stress to me how important it was that this is going to be the first time vince McMahon's going to see you on tv so i it was a high stressful situation and I do think he did think that I might have ruined it for myself. So I took the apology.
Starting point is 00:19:29 First time in my life I've ever looked at a guy and I ran his eye while he apologized to me and been like, I mean, you definitely just punked me in front of a lot of people but I can understand where you're coming from. And I thanked him for it actually,
Starting point is 00:19:40 for the apology. And at this point, we're 14 minutes away from showtime. And he's like uh okay we got to get you fucking up to gorilla because you got to get mic'd up uh we're about to go live in what 14 minutes that's a 10 minute walk from where we were to get to gorilla so whenever you saw me go on for the first kickoff show hit i had just gotten my thingies on probably 30 seconds before that probably 30 seconds before that just ready to go
Starting point is 00:20:05 just yep lucky to be here in the back of my head i'm like what a fucking wild time to be alive here they gave you a nice pullout shot too so they could get the shorts in there and then wwe actually tweeted this is the top party on the bottom come on they got that's because backstage it was quite a topic of conversation it was uh all those super wrestling people that hated me. They were like, why is this jackass wearing shorts? And I'm like, if you only knew what all happened with these shorts, bub. Back to that for a second. Those people will complain about anything.
Starting point is 00:20:39 Vince McMahon could cure cancer. And they would be like, well, he didn't cure it our way. So it's not good enough for us. What's the quote? What's the quote? quote motherfuckers can see me walk on water and they would say it's because i couldn't swim yeah it's unbelievable it's a real quote but for me i have a happy little life on the internet you know i have a happy little life hey let's do a giveaway let's do some questions do some give and take let's have a good time here but then man those people come flying in from the top rope on me bro and i'm like man i really feel like you guys genuinely hate me and i'm sorry i am very
Starting point is 00:21:11 sorry but then i in my head i'm always like man there's other things you can do but i'm literally getting thrusted into their world yeah so i can understand i mean i'm like i'm like kind of balancing like yeah i am kind of getting thrown into your life here but if they meet you in person though they'll be like, oh, you're the coolest guy ever, right? So the guy that whenever I did the... I did commentating at that NXT for an Adam Cole match with Velveteen Dream. And there was a guy that actually asked for a picture with me.
Starting point is 00:21:35 And then I watched him talk shit on Twitter about me to the other wrestling people. I remembered his face. And then he was like, I was standing right by him. He was terrible. And I was like, that guy was literally asking me for a picture on the way out. standing right by him he was terrible and i was like that guy was literally asking me for a picture on the way out so it was yeah it was just uh wild but that's the wrestling world you know the wrestling world is that way sammy zane just got an incredible promo about it last night actually just calling all the people out it was really cool of him to
Starting point is 00:21:55 do that then the watch along happened so immediately after the kickoff show ends i have to sprint to the watch along which is a five-hour show about to launch, directly after all these things just happened. So, I mean, it was quite a wild Sunday for me. Watch Along, five-hour show. Incredibly thankful for all the guests that came in. Great people. Very fun. Two and a half million viewers.
Starting point is 00:22:16 No big deal. No big deal. By the way, two and a half million viewers is a lot of motherfucking viewers. Got a million views on the Road to Wrestlemania video. Shout out to all the sponsors that didn't approve to do that. Shout out to Natural Light, by the way, coming through for the goddamn watch-along
Starting point is 00:22:36 sponsorship. Some good gimmicks they gave out, too. Yeah, Wrestlemania was a long show, but a great show. I mean, we broke the news that Brock and Seth was going first. Big Show broke that on the watch along. You should have seen the panic on everybody in the room whenever we broke news that we're not supposed to do on there.
Starting point is 00:22:55 Thought the show was going to get turned off immediately, especially after what happened with the shorts. I mean, there was a lot of things going on. Big Show farted, too. Big Show farted on his way out. Just cropped us and all you out he he was out the door and then came back and turned around forced to fart out and then walked out i really appreciated him for that that guy that guy doesn't like me either he we can we can mark him in as the group that

We are a bunch of dum-dums. We are a bunch of dum-dums. But let's talk about what happened directly outside of WrestleMania in the MetLife parking lot,
Starting point is 00:27:24 where a man named Jose Perez, Zito, Road Trip Zit, Heel Zit, whatever you refer to him as, made a boo-boo, and I will let Ty Schmidt take it away from here. I sent out a tweet that said, Attention, the Road Hawks have been involved in quite an accident quite an accident and what you're about to hear is a pretty expensive accident and i think ty will break it down i was on the bus sitting near cory graves bobby rude wow aj styles baron corbin phenomenal name drop name drop name drop, name drop.
Starting point is 00:28:06 While that was happening, this was happening in the MetLife parking lot with the rest of the Roadhawks. So we get there about, I don't know, what did you guys say? Probably like 9 o'clock? Yeah. MetLife Stadium. Yeah, MetLife Stadium. Ready to go.
Starting point is 00:28:19 Just looking for a place to put the RV. And whenever you go to these types of places, you always run into like, you know, you got all these different guys with vests on, different color shirts, traffic. They tell you to go one way, you get to that area. That guy tells you to go back the other way. So we basically... They're all badge heavy. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:28:38 Exactly. Everyone has a job. Everyone has a job. These people have been given a little bit of power for the first time in their entire lives. You've all seen them. They're at concerts or at stadiums. They're shirt yellow vest orange shirt so it's one of the ones that met life are wearing i believe it's just they're the worst these people aren't real cops but for the moment they think they are and it's a terrible situation
Starting point is 00:28:57 exactly so not all of them are the worst i'm sure there's some of you that do a great job barely yeah so we we get there and we think we find the spot where we're supposed to be because, again, we're still assuming that the RV is going to be on the watch along. Potentially. We need to get this thing parked safely somewhere. So we
Starting point is 00:29:17 find an area. We think that's going to be good. The guys tell us, no, you can't do that. There's an RV lot down there. Take it down there. By the way, no cars in any of the parking lot. No. Not wide open. Completely empty parking lot. The guys tell us, no, you can't do that. There's an RV lot down there. Take it down there. By the way, no cars in any of the parking lot. No. Wide open. Completely empty parking lot. The only other trucks that were there were the WWE TV trucks. Also,
Starting point is 00:29:33 awkward though, because we don't want to say we're with the WWE. Exactly. We're not. Because we're not. Yeah, we're not. We're working in conjunction with them. Potentially, maybe, we were told we might get in the shot. So we didn't want to say, hey, we're with the WWE. We just wanted, Foxy had his passes. Yeah, because you don't want to get
Starting point is 00:29:49 bad Chevy to the bad Chevy. No. Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay. So we get up to this one spot and then they tell us, no, that's not going to work. Go back down and see those guys. So we end up swooping all the way around to near where we think is the loading dock. Okay. Which is where we assumed they dropped you off, where we're just going to pop in, go sit in the watch-along room until the watch-along starts, essentially.
Starting point is 00:30:11 Yep. And what happens? So we're driving down there, and this is probably about maybe 60 yards away from the front gates of MetLife Stadium. Maybe even less. Maybe even less. Who's driving? Zeet's driving. Okay. Road trip even less. Who's driving? Zeet's driving. Road trip Zeet. Yeah, road trip Zeet.
Starting point is 00:30:28 And ahead of us is this I don't know if it's where they bring the food in. We were told it was a hotel. It looked like a hotel. It was like a clubhouse I think it was called. Yeah, it was the club something. So anyway, it's got
Starting point is 00:30:43 a clearance of probably 15 feet or so. And what happens? And this guy tells Zeke, yeah, hey, just follow that car right down that way. And so we're thinking, okay, no problem. A yellow shirt says yes. A yellow shirt says that. So Zeke moseys on down this way and just fucking. Play the clip.
Starting point is 00:31:04 In that moment, I think we all thought we were going to die. Play the clip. Did you already play the clip? I was going to just insert it. Do you want to actually play it? Yeah. I want to hear it. Play the clip.
Starting point is 00:31:15 Yeah. Play the clip. Jesus Christ I think it's stuck Jesus Christ! I think it's stuck. Shut the fuck up. I fucking told you guys! I These guys did it. You're supposed to come through this shot like right here. I didn't tell you to go out through these bags. You're supposed to go in. Yeah, right down this side here.
Starting point is 00:32:30 Fuck. Come on, guys. Fucking hell. We're looking out there. Oh, fuck. Oh, fuck. So what you just heard was the RV that was clearly too tall for an awning that was hanging over. And Zito was going so fast in that the entire RV ended up under the awning.
Starting point is 00:33:21 And it wasn't until they were all the way under that zito said oh i think we're and at that moment he puts it in reverse and rides back through all of it and that's what the this the piercing sound of metal that you heard ripping through was zito just double downing on the fuck up and ty you could we talked about it. All of us felt like we were in a trench in World War II. There's fucking soot raining down. There's mangled metal dropping through holes in the roof. I will never forget that sound. It was terrible.
Starting point is 00:33:55 Yeah, I put my hands over my ears. Because first I thought Nick was going to get crushed by the awning. So I was in the cabin up top where the bed is above the driver's seat. If that awning was literally six inches lower, I'm dead. My body is snapped and mangled and cracked into pieces. Can we talk about you guys took
Starting point is 00:34:15 you just like tuna canned the top of that thing, right? We gave it a moonroof. So we back out. We didn't do anything. Zeet. Zeet. Zeet. Literally, light bulbs are falling. The ceiling is made of styrofoam.
Starting point is 00:34:30 There's styrofoam dust falling everywhere. Ty stood up. He covered his ears. He stood up, and he ran into the back of the RV and was looking at the sky like he was ready to jump out. I thought, see, because I thought zeke hit the fucking corner of the awning i thought the entire building was coming down so he backed he backs out and then we get a thousand you know the paramedics show up the cops show up the fire department shows up so at
Starting point is 00:34:59 this time while they're doing this i am on the bus i am on the bus with the rest of the wwe roster driving by there's two fire trucks there's a cop there's paramedics there's quite a scene and we're just rolling by going into the the fucking metlife stadium and i get a cory graves is that your RV? It's the Roadhawks, Gordon So they blocked me in And a part of me was just like Oh, I'm just going to drive back I just parked the car Like not thinking anything was wrong
Starting point is 00:35:34 Yeah, yeah, the roof was missing Yeah, they just blocked me in Like I was a convict of some sort We got a hundred different guys coming Oh my god Hey, who the fuck told you guys to drive down there? Just so many, hey, why the fuck did you guys drive underneath the awning?
Starting point is 00:35:50 And Zeke just kept saying, these fucking guys told me to. Zito's one of the best ever. Him and Connor are one of the best ever at just deflecting blame. With a blocker and a glove side, they just deflect the blame like goddamn Tommy Barrasso.
Starting point is 00:36:06 Hey, the good news was second time this week that it happened. So there was a, what was it, a bus? I believe a school bus had already hit it earlier. Oh, so there was a precedent on what to do. Oh, yeah. But we apparently, well, Z has the record for most damage. Yeah, I asked the guy. I mean, Ty has the quote.
Starting point is 00:36:23 I asked the guy. I was like, uh like has this happened before like is has there any ever been one that's this bad and ty i don't know if the guy said hey i'll tell you what that's the furthest i've ever seen any vehicle get underneath that fucking awning look look at the ladder on the back of the rvs almost fucking off the satellite dish the air conditioner all the anything you could think of that's on top, gone. The clean-up crew, too. The clean-up crew that came to help out
Starting point is 00:36:51 was just a cast of carrots. At first, the air conditioning unit probably weighs like 250 pounds. It's just laying up there. We're like, what should we do with this? The guy's like, oh, Serrano, you want to fucking take that with you. Trust me.
Starting point is 00:37:06 So we tried putting it into the lower compartment. This thing's fucking ten times too big. So eventually he was like, actually, it's leaking a good deal of coolant. Why don't you just throw it down the fucking hill over there? The damage is done. We look over to the hill that he's talking about. It's the other side of the fence that the awning is sticking out on The damage is already done
Starting point is 00:37:30 Just throw that thing down the fucking hill So the cops show up And obviously there are some things on the RV That probably shouldn't be on the RV Hold on The Roadhogs travel heavy Okay, so hold on. So I get a text from Nick
Starting point is 00:37:50 that says, call me when you can. And I never get that type of text from Nick, right? Call me when you can. And I go, what happened? Because I'm on that bus. And he goes, bad spot. So I automatically assumed, in my head, I automatically assumed rv is currently getting
Starting point is 00:38:07 raided right now and any vitamins that are in there are getting wiped out there was also some potential other stuff that connor decided to pull in there potentially not nothing serious no that needs to be said nothing nothing that would cause any jail time but definitely some things that would raise some eyebrows especially when you just crash into a fucking building. So I texted him back, what happened? And he goes, low bridge, just lost the roof on the argument. And I couldn't have laughed harder. That bus was so quiet.
Starting point is 00:38:39 That bus was so, so quiet. And I just started fucking howling, laughing. And I just responded, there's no other way for that trip to end. There's no other way for that RV trip to end other than Zito taking the fucking roof off of it at MetLife Stadium at WrestleMania. The road is a tough one to WrestleMania. But it turns out once you get there, that's when the real problems start. That's when the real problems start. Dude, and we were shitting our pants.
Starting point is 00:39:04 We thought you were going to fire us all, going to be so pissed. And then we look at the group chat and you say, boys, the hashtag road to Wrestlemania is not always a smooth one. Somebody send the RV agreement to Phil.
Starting point is 00:39:21 And then in all caps, with a quote, we took the roof off at the Met Life. And then after that, we were good. We were all positive. Everything was good. We needed that. Dude, I was sitting on that bus.
Starting point is 00:39:34 I didn't even see any of the damage. I had no idea what had happened. Just this simple text message of, Zito just took the roof off of the fucking RV just made me just cry laughing just so so hard and all i could think of was that rick ross song where he's like i took the roof off at the red light and i was like we took the roof off at the mad light that's all i could think of these cops come over they grab our ids they want to see our IDs. And they go, oh. Yeah, how'd you guys weasel your way out of there?
Starting point is 00:40:05 We got a collection of guys here. What do you guys do? We go, oh, this guy's from Mass. Oh, well. It wasn't good. I knew I wasn't going to do well in Jersey. I knew it. You got profiled.
Starting point is 00:40:16 The shadows of New York City, please. Let's stay with this. So I heard, Connor, you just invited the cops onto the RV. Well, I mean, the way to be the least suspicious is to be the most trustworthy. So, of course, what I did was. Here are the vitamins, sir. I actually. That's a lamp, sir.
Starting point is 00:40:38 That is a lamp. It's the only lamp that's not broken. There's no lamp. That's not a bomb. No, no. But, I mean, seriously, there was a bag full of things, and it was the closest bag to the door because the first thing that they're going to search
Starting point is 00:40:54 is the back of the bus. Johnny Depp said it best. Johnny Depp said it best. You've got to be the most unassuming person in there. Yep, Boston George. You would never ever just welcome... That cop knew that you would never ever just welcome him on there if there was an insane amount of vitamins on there
Starting point is 00:41:07 to get a group of six men back from New York, the shadows of New York City to Indianapolis for 10 days. What a magical moment that is for you, Connor. Yeah, they asked him where he was sitting. He goes, oh yeah, you guys want to check out the RV? I was like, oh, some of us were up here, but we got some beds in the back
Starting point is 00:41:24 if you want to look at them. Oh my God. So after they do some snooping, they talk to Z. Z, what was the damage done from the police to you? So he basically said. Hold on. Zito is reading from notes right now. This is the first time I've ever seen this.
Starting point is 00:41:38 And Zito knows that everything he says right now is going on the record. And he is definitely being fined by pmi because once we got a side angle to finn ballard just so happened to be in a car with a guy named dustin who works for wwe and they saw the roadhawk rv and they saw what was happening and they actually got a cell phone wide shot of zito pulling into the awning pulling again into it and then and then back. We have an entire side shot. It looks as if it's set up too good to be true. Can I say something about that? And I promise you it's not.
Starting point is 00:42:10 And with that being said, as a person who had to drive that RV, it is very obvious that you are in a tall vehicle. If you see an awning, the first thing I thought of as a driver was, of course Cito did it. Of course Cito is the fucking one. Because there wasn't even a thing.
Starting point is 00:42:28 Watching the video back from inside the RV. That's my favorite part. You're fucking about to sing. You're like about to sing a song. And then the whole fucking roof gets thawed. You didn't even think that there was a chance of the top getting hit. And that's why you're getting fined a substantial amount. So you better read from your motherfucking notes.
Starting point is 00:42:45 And this is going to be a pretty important little thing. To further that point home, I can't stress this enough. I'm laying in a bed above Zito. Right above his head. Above him. There's a whole other human on top of him. Zito thinks he's in his fucking Kia. Zito thinks he's somehow in that shitbag Kia
Starting point is 00:43:01 just about to drive under his car. The Kia would have cleared it. The Kia would have cleared it. But I will say, though, the yellow shirts were harassing Finn Balor. But then they came to me, and then they were able to park. So I helped them out. And you were forced to go where you went. He was.
Starting point is 00:43:15 You were forced. Let's be honest. I mean, I don't know if you can really see it that well in the video. Zeke hit that thing going about 45. You had to fucking switch gears down. Fucking transmission. Okay, Zito, read from your notes that you have a prepared speech for. All right, notes.
Starting point is 00:43:40 Nope, number two. No sign, no clearance sign there. There should have been a clearance sign. I did see a lot of people potentially tweeting. My dad actually, I sent my dad the video. He started crying, laughing. Oh, no. As a former truck driver, my dad said, always got to know your clearance.
Starting point is 00:43:58 Always got to know your clearance. That's rule number one. But if they don't have a sign, what are you supposed to do? Get out and try to jump and touch it? Yeah, I can't do that. So, yeah, so I basically was looking up. It was it was clear you're eyeballing it i was eyeballing it and the guy said follow that car okay so you thought the guy in the yellow shirt with a little bit of power that was sending you in a direction i bought it for you with the person in a right above your head that could potentially die so the guy who yells in that video i didn't tell you to
Starting point is 00:44:21 go there he told me to go there and then there's so i don't know how to explain so the awnings there there's one lane there's two lanes on the opposite side they have cones between uh the cars coming towards us and the car is going away so you're you had no other option there was one lane but that was blocked up by another person so that other car that was supposed to follow was the lane did the awning yes got it so basically what happened there after all this happened all the yellow shirts disappeared and they moved the cones back to two lanes so they made it look like i was way more so you're saying they rigged the scene of the crime yes a hundred percent it's on video too i think evan got that part i was filming the whole thing what did i say
Starting point is 00:45:01 as soon as it happened yes i said make sure we get everything on film everything has to be on film because in my mind this is the greatest ending to the week that there could possibly be i mean this is a comedic it's a comedic crash sucks for the lady that rented us the rv we are going to settle the score we are going to settle up with her because we are a fair bunch of people uh we got insurance for it obviously we're going to help out as much as we possibly can probably gonna buy anything obviously i don't know if there's another option so we're gonna take care of that business but for for me i just wanted to make sure we if we
Starting point is 00:45:35 were gonna end up being this is gonna be mightily expensive we might as well have it all in film you're saying that the yellow shirts rigged the scene afterwards to make you look like a dum-dum there's a possibility i might be suing the yellow shirts. Oh, come back around. Maybe we take MetLife. Maybe it's ZeetLife. Oh, I like that. Now we're talking.
Starting point is 00:45:51 I'll put a roof on MetLife. Yeah, put a roof off at the red light. So they dispersed after making you look bad. Yeah, so the cops showed up, and I look around to look for the guy who told me to go. They're all gone. Evan was yelling at one because he happened to take his pass. This fucking guy. This is the same guy who told me to go. They're all gone. Evan was yelling at one because he happened to take his pass.
Starting point is 00:46:06 This fucking guy. This is the same guy that told you to go through. Yes. That guy took your pass? He took my pass. Didn't give it back. Then I had to go over there, yell at him, get it back. Because that's an important pass.
Starting point is 00:46:16 Is that on film? I might have been recording during the conversation. Now we're talking. I might have been. So I'm looking around, though. He's not there anymore. Every yellow shirt. This was the busiest intersection of all time this was like where
Starting point is 00:46:27 all the like mayhem was there was nothing else happening in the entire lot except no exactly yeah there's no other cars i guess this is like the lot for all like the the talent to go and uh the wrestlers and whatnot so i'm looking around the cops like i was trying to explain to the cop like this guy and i'm like looking around no one's there and i'm like shoot and he was basically telling me it was supposed to be a $500 ticket. A cop was saying it? Yes. They call it summons there.
Starting point is 00:46:49 They don't call it tickets. They call it summons. So he was like, but I brought it down to $85. But I was like, well, what do you mean? It wasn't my fault. The guy told me to go. And the cop basically breaks down. He was like, well, it was careless of you to go.
Starting point is 00:47:05 Yeah, but you didn't have to go 65. For those listening at home, the little pop there after Zito tried to blame somebody else for that was me looking at him as if he was a fucking kindergartner. When a guy who dropped out of high school was wearing a yellow shirt
Starting point is 00:47:23 tells you to go into something that you clearly can't fit under, and you just go, well, fuck, that dumb, dumb back there shit, I'll fucking hammer. Let's go flat on this thing. Throttle down.
Starting point is 00:47:33 Come on, guys. Come on, guys. What are you doing, guys? Jesus Christ. I fucking told you. I think we're stuck. Can we play that video again one more time, please? Just so everybody can remember what we are referring to.
Starting point is 00:47:52 Now that you've got a little background into the situation there. There goes the jet roider. God. Jesus Christ. Loves you. I think it's stuck You went in more So I was actually There's the ladder I fucking told you
Starting point is 00:48:45 Come on dude Who told you to go through here? These guys did You were supposed to come through this shot Like right here I didn't say to go through these bags You told me to go through them These guys did. You told me to end. Come on guys. Fucking A. How we looking out there?
Starting point is 00:49:23 How we looking? How we looking? The eternal optimist, Fox. I had to do it. So my first thought was the- How we looking out there? How we looking? Fox is staring at the generator on the ground. The trench is a world war two.
Starting point is 00:49:41 Fox gives a look around. How we looking out there, boys? Nick's like, wow, the roof just crashed on my fucking head. I think the only words that were uttered after, like, in there, in the RV, that didn't get picked up were me going, what the fuck, Z? Yeah, dude. Hey, man. You guys, and I'm going to say this from a perspective.
Starting point is 00:50:02 Congratulations on surviving that. Oh, thank you. Thank you. You need to see the video. It's on our YouTube. It's surviving that. Thank you. Thank you. You need to see the video. It's on our YouTube. It's on our social medias. You need to see the video just to see how much destruction this caused. Because that sound you heard there was literally the bottom of that entire awning coming down through the RV's roof, which was getting ripped off.
Starting point is 00:50:22 And there's just five little soldiers sitting in there just getting rained hail basically down on. And Zito decided to go in even more and then all the way out. So I thought the day was already done. I thought I had enough clearance after everything fell off. You're going to forge the river? Yeah. And that might have killed Nick if I would have kept going.
Starting point is 00:50:44 So after this happens, they clean up. They clean up forge the river. And that might have killed Nick if I would have kept going. So after this happens, they clean up. They clean up all the debris. They finally give us a parking lot to park in. We get parked. We get settled. By the way, the EMTs, the cops, the people that cleaned it up were actually all incredible. We were in and out of there within like 40 minutes. First responders, by the way.
Starting point is 00:51:00 Good people. I actually asked. We're going to have to pay for that. We're going to have to pay for the first responders. We have not, which is good news. They have not billed us. That's great news. Let's just maybe not Good people. I actually asked. We're going to have to pay for that. We're going to have to pay for the first responders. We have not, which is good news. They have not billed us. That's great news. Let's just maybe not mention that. Which is crazy because when you do like $750,000
Starting point is 00:51:12 in the gym, you think you'd be around for longer than 40 minutes. We even talked with a guy who walked by. He was part of the security. Not security, but he was wearing a red shirt. He was just shaking his head, walking straight down. Some some guy slick back hair arm sleeve tattoo his his orange red vest whatever it was walks by just shaking his head doesn't say a word shaking his
Starting point is 00:51:33 head and i think connor said something to him like how we doing buddy he goes i was like what do you think huh oh that's that's the most amount of damage i've ever fucking seen i'll tell you what the wwf will be proud that's that's a lot of fucking destruction yeah so we go and we park the rv in the parking lot where it's finally supposed to be everyone's tailgating around us it's an awesome scene uh we talked to you you're like uh we don't know what to do at this point we really are at a loss like well you think we're still getting in i don't know and then you facetime us and you're like, well, you think we're still getting in? I don't know. And then you FaceTime us, and you're like, well, did you guys patch it up yet? We got to get back to Indy. And we're like, oh, well, I guess we could take a shot at it.
Starting point is 00:52:11 Oh, shit, yeah, we got to drive this fucking thing back. So we rip out some garbage bags. We climb onto the roof of the RV. We get some duct tape, and we start duct taping the garbage bags through the holes in the roof of the RV. Meanwhile, everyone around us is tailgating, having a good time, drinking beers, throwing footballs, playing wrestling music. And everyone's just kind of casually glancing at the two of us idiots on top of this RV. And then more yellow shirts.
Starting point is 00:52:34 We made the convertible. Don't worry about it. More yellow shirts, more security come by, and they keep yelling, hey, you guys got to get down from up there. Oh, yeah. And I was like, no, we actually damaged our RV. We got to patch it up. He goes, oh, you guys got to get down from up there. Oh, yeah, and I was like, no, we actually damaged our RV. We got to patch it up. He goes, oh, you guys are the guys from the audience? You guys are my fucking heroes.
Starting point is 00:52:52 Come on. He just drives away. I was like, yeah. You guys are fucking cult heroes over there. They're going to be telling stories about you. Every Jets and Giants game. Hey, what did that security guy say at the first Jets tailgate to the one RV that was
Starting point is 00:53:06 thinking about going underneath the awning, Ty? Hey, who the fuck told you guys to drive underneath there? What happened last time? Has anybody ever drove under here before? Yeah, the last time one of you guys came in here with the RV, you almost took the whole fucking thing down. The best part is, I think Mike Francesa, actually, the legendary New York broadcaster, heard about this and he spoke about it. Did he really?
Starting point is 00:53:30 Yeah. I think we have the clip. Hold on. Let me pull it up. No fucking way. This is an honor. Okay. Listen, I've spoken to the Roadhawks, okay?
Starting point is 00:53:44 And they're okay. They're fine. They're fine. They're okay. But the awning at MetLife Stadium, I mean, that thing is fucking destroyed. Okay? And granted, that thing is lower than it should be. Okay?
Starting point is 00:53:57 So I don't really blame Zito. Okay? But, I mean, let's be honest, okay? The roof over there at MetLife, it's taken off the roof of a lot of RVs, okay? Granted, it's unfortunate that, you know, the boys, the Roadhawks didn't have their WrestleMania moment, okay? They were in that RV for about 16 hours. But listen, hey, listen. I mean, you think that's not going to bother them at all, okay?
Starting point is 00:54:24 Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Okay, they've been doing this for 25 years. No, they haven't. And they'll continue to do so. The Roadhawks are still number one, okay? Okay? I'm glad they're okay.
Starting point is 00:54:35 Ty, if you get a chance, tell them we said thank you for that. I will. I will. I'm looking out for you guys like that. Even adding to your resume like that, 25 years of Roadhawk-ness. Yeah, exactly. He knows the road code. By the way, road codes yeah exactly he knows a road code uh by the way road codes very one of the road codes by the way i think maybe rule one of the road code is uh god know your clearance yeah that might be the number one road code
Starting point is 00:54:55 should have a spotter i will say i should have a spotter out there oh man dude and the amount we've been laughing just in this show we did this at least 15 to 20 times yesterday, crying of laughter. It was the only way to get through it. It was so fucking funny. These videos carried me home. Granted, we had to drive this thing back. Immediately after WrestleMania, by the way,
Starting point is 00:55:18 the roofless RV. In the rain. In the fucking rain. It became a jacuzzi. I FaceTimed the boys when I was leaving WrestleMania. I was like, what are you guys doing? And Conor was driving. And I was like, oh my God, it's that bad.
Starting point is 00:55:35 Conor's driving. Everybody's scared to drive. Zito's being kicked out. And Zito goes, I wasn't kicked out. I got the night shift. And I was like, what does that even mean? He goes, we got to get home. Got to beat the rain out of here.
Starting point is 00:55:48 It was a downpour. There was no rain to beat. The rain had already won. There was no rain chasing. And you guys left straight from WrestleMania, straight back to Indianapolis. What time did you get back? I don't know. It was like 6, wasn't it?
Starting point is 00:56:03 Yeah, so we got at 3 in the morning. We got just outside of Pennsylvania. Well, because when you called after the show, and you were like, how are the garbage bags holding up? We were like, good, it's great. It's perfect. We had the lights off. Really, it was pouring down water into the middle of the RV.
Starting point is 00:56:19 Oh, so that's what it was at. We get back to the hotel, and Zeke and I run upstairs, and we just start raiding uh towels from the hotel rooms you might have a charge you might have a charge your credit card well that's why you guys said to me earlier that i haven't seen my room bill yet yeah that was said to me earlier and it was kind of just like a throwaway comment now it all makes sense you guys took 14 to 15 different towels from the fucking nice place we're staying at uh maybe like five because the rv actually had a bunch of towels in it.
Starting point is 00:56:46 So we stuffed them up in there and jammed them up in there as best we could. And then we said best wishes to Zeke and Connor. Yeah, because we had to drive from MetLife back to the hotel first and then leave from the hotel to go to India. I mean, I don't even know where we got. I was just hoping the whole entire thing stayed together.
Starting point is 00:57:02 Yeah, well, you guys made it. Lady Hawk will never take another voyage. But you know what she did? She persevered after quite a scalping of a situation of hers. And I've never been more proud of an RV than I am of
Starting point is 00:57:17 the Lady Hawk. We all say I will never forget April 7th. Never. I will remember that. That might be the last thing I think about on April 7th. Never. Never. Never. I will remember that. That might be the last thing I think about on my desk. One more laugh. Can we play it one more time here, Nick?
Starting point is 00:57:35 And then we'll move on to some topical stuff. This also doesn't do the sound justice of being on air. Hold on, Nick. Hold on, Nick. I would like you all to know that are listening that we will hold Zito accountable for this. As you should. Don't you? Yes. Zito is being fined a handsome amount from PMI.
Starting point is 00:57:55 Phil, who has not answered any of our calls today. Connor's not exactly thrilled. Zito's not exactly thrilled with the Phil. Nobody's really thrilled with the Phil at the moment but Phil and I will have a conversation tomorrow after the dust settles a little bit and we will tell Zito his exact fine amount that he will have
Starting point is 00:58:15 but I would assume that Zito is going to be doing car washes the standard fundraising things to raise this money back because you will be fined a substantial amount for this situation that you sped, fucking hammered down, pedal to the metal,
Starting point is 00:58:35 old lady hawk into this situation outside MetLife Stadium. Oh, shit. Forge in the river here. God. Jesus Christ. Zito doesn't know how bad it is at this point Let's keep going I think it's stuck I fucking told you guys. The last one.
Starting point is 00:59:33 Come on, dude. Who told you to go through here? These guys did. You were supposed to come through this shot like right here. I didn't say to go out through there. You told me to go out through the left side. Fuck. Come on guys. What shot?
Starting point is 01:00:02 Fucking A. They're looking out there. Oh fuck Oh fuck So after all that the only 85 took it summons so far yeah yeah so far yeah uh we have not chatted with the rv rental lady who is very hesitant to give us the keys yeah yeah hesitant and i did get an email after uh zito did notify her politely as he should okay so zito let her know that we could have potentially took the roof off, and we will deal with that at another day.
Starting point is 01:00:49 We will own up to what Zito did because we are a team here. But Zito will be punished heavily. Hawks or fly or die? You're about to say fly together. I heard that. Fly or die is not a bad. That's a road code, too. I like that. Fly or die. Fly a bad. That's a road code, too. I like that.
Starting point is 01:01:06 Hey, fly or die. Fly or die. You know what three is? And maybe that's like our shield thing. Fly or die. Fly or die. Oh, maybe, yeah. We put the wings on.
Starting point is 01:01:15 Put the wings on. Anyway, Zito, you're not a road hawk anymore. I did throw my pipe into the Jersey River. Did you have the pipe in when you crashed? No, that's why I needed it and I threw it away because it didn't help me. So Foxy, you said that you were recording all that because Zito was having so many interactions with these
Starting point is 01:01:37 red shirts. Yeah, exactly. You know, there's a lot of loopholes to get through and I was just like, something's going to be funny here, so I'm just going to record it, keep the camera on, I set it in the cup holder and little did we know. Something was off with Zito in the morning because we all made a plan to meet down in the lobby at 8 a.m. He didn't show up until about 8.30.
Starting point is 01:01:54 He never said a word to anyone who was very quiet, which is unlike Zito. He's usually very talkative. What, you woke up on the wrong side of the bed? No, I just had a bed vibe. He did say it. He's like, I had a bad feeling all day today. I know why too, because he went to bed as heel Z, and he woke up as road trip Z. He had no idea who he was.
Starting point is 01:02:09 You're lost to yourself. Yeah. Now we just know you're crashy. Oh, no. Oh, no. Take some pride, man. You may as well be Mr. WrestleMania. He did say before we left, I remember we talked about we were slightly worried that Zito might jackknife the thing on 70,
Starting point is 01:02:29 but that his only concerns were busy cities and parking garages. Oh, U-turns. So U-turns and parking garages. So the clearance was a concern of yours. It was. And it turned out to be a real one. Bit me in the roof. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:02:45 See you guys later. Hey, in hindsight, Z, I probably would have tried to drive 75 through that thing. Poor Z. He feels terrible. Oh, God. It was bad. It was bad. That last one where it clink, clink, clink
Starting point is 01:03:04 like 10 seconds afterwards. You hear the roof falling apart after we after so zeke and evan left to go put it in this parking lot and we're just like me nick and connor were sitting on this bench like just get these guys the fuck away from me like who knows what's about to happen and we all said like hey zeke is not in a great spot right now let's let's take it easy easy on him. And then we did what we just did now for like 15 hours. Zito's just been buried. That's why he's being fined. We'll figure that out after Phil answers a phone call. All right, let's get to some other stuff.
Starting point is 01:03:37 Aaron Rodgers was buried this weekend in a Bleacher Report article that came out. A lot of anonymous sources, a couple of real actual old teammates went on the record, but I don't know what the deal is right now. McCarthy, I think he's on a big PR campaign right now. He went on a couple of interviews and I'm assuming he called all the dogs that he had in the back, uh, in the, Ooh, what'd I say? Behind the scenes writers like, Hey, is there any way you can write this to kind of spin this? It seems if McCarthy could potentially be looking for another job. Uh, so anytime to do that, you kind of got to correct your image and you got to bury whoever the other side is. Aaron Rodgers
Starting point is 01:04:10 came out and said that it was all bullshit. Is that right, Ty? Yeah, pretty much. A big part of it was like, hey, listen, these guys that are shitting on me, it's the same guys every single time. It's always Greg Jennings and Jermichael Finley and three guys who either didn't match with him, but Rodgers made those guys' careers. Greg Jennings didn't shit without Aaron Rodgers, so he basically just said, yeah, that guy who's a smear campaign, he's trying to advance his career, and all these negative quotes you're getting from these people are people who have had issues with me
Starting point is 01:04:39 in the past and just keep bringing up this old dirt, like never have anything new to say. Well, it's just like polls, right? You can't trust any polls because you never know who's getting polled. I mean, if you were to go ask 100 people in Indianapolis, do you know who Pat McAfee is? A hundred of them would say yes. But you could say we polled 100 people in America
Starting point is 01:04:56 and 100 people knew who Pat McAfee was, but those could all be people literally within a 100-foot radius of where I'm at. Yeah. If you poll, same poll, you could say we pulled a hundred people in america and you could ask people in portland washington california and they'd say no you say zero people out of a hundred people answered that's why polls are such bullshit these days and the same thing whenever you get an opinion on person everything has a spin that they want it to have everything is slighted in the direction that they want it and that's why we live in a woke society. And that's why I don't even think Aaron Rodgers had to answer this,
Starting point is 01:05:27 by the way. Although it was a talking point for a lot of people in a lot of shows, like, oh, Aaron Rodgers is a bad guy to be a teammate with. LeBron was kind of getting his same kick. I mean, anytime you're at the top of the world, you're going to get things thrown at you and you're going to get judged. And let's be honest, these elite characters are interesting characters. To be elite, you've got to, A, be selfish because you've got to care about yourself mostly throughout your entire life. And that selfishness also drives them to work harder than everybody else because they want to be great.
Starting point is 01:05:54 It makes them look out for themselves. I mean, Peyton Manning is known to throw a touchdown, throw the ball on the one-yard line to pad some potential touchdown stats. Him and Jeff Saturday got into a verbal altercation that was caught on Mic'd up but there's a reason why the greats are great and most of it is because they're a little bit off they're a little bit different and obviously they're different because they're better than everybody else is at what they do aaron rogers falls into that category when i talked to him when he was both on this show and whenever i was interviewing him for the packers uh lions game he was nothing but cordial and nice. Joe Philbin, who was his coach, left and then came back to be his coach again,
Starting point is 01:06:28 said nothing but nice things. The people that work for the Packers said nothing but nice things. Would any of them bury Aaron Rodgers to a member of the media? No, but I don't think they'd go out of their way to say nice things about Aaron Rodgers, which a lot of people have. So it's all in who you ask. Everything is all in who you ask, man. And I just think we need to stop jumping on everybody's opinion
Starting point is 01:06:46 because not everybody's opinion is always the most honest. Well, and I thought you would know more about this than any of us, obviously. But wouldn't it be pretty easy then if this was true and the guys did feel like that? All of his receivers and current teammates were the first ones to step up and be like, hey, this is bullshit. Yeah, I think also well, also, there's current teammates. Well, that's what I mean,
Starting point is 01:07:08 though. You've got to take everything. Those guys want the ball, too. For sure. It's just like if they win, by the way, if they go and win, none of this gets talked about. Winning cures everything. But you could find somebody that I'm sure hates Peyton Manning. You could find somebody I'm sure hates Tom Brady. I hate Peyton Manning.
Starting point is 01:07:24 No, but what I'm saying is you never played the fucking NFL. Oh, you have to be, you have to. Like as a teammate. With the cleats. Look at AB, the situation with the inside. I was about to pivot to that, but I'm assuming that there's somebody you could find for anybody that whenever one person has the ball in every situation,
Starting point is 01:07:42 which is what a quarterback does, the people who their lives depend upon getting that ball, there's going to be some people that feel slighted. The coach screwed them. A quarterback screwed them. Front office screwed them. There's always reasons for why somebody didn't succeed. And normally it's hard to not blame yourself and blame other people,
Starting point is 01:08:00 just like what Zeke did with the yellow shirt. Speaking of interesting situations, the Antonio Brown situation has escalated into a nightmare status for the ABPR team. Also, dream scenario for all Pittsburgh Steelers fans that have been saying this entire time, get rid of them. We don't need them.
Starting point is 01:08:17 Get them out of the locker room. And it tends to be situations on social media that have got Antonio Brown into his most trouble. Explain what happened on the Internet for Yinzer Nick. So he took a shot at Juju kind of out of the blue, basically saying, you know, someone tweeted at him. Pittsburgh, it was actually Pittsburgh radio host Bill Crawford tweeted at him and he said, oh, Pittsburgh fans are still, he retweeted it, said, Pittsburgh fans are still salty, go buy my Raiders jersey. Then someone replied to that tweet with a picture of Juju,
Starting point is 01:08:48 who was voted as the team MVP in the New Orleans Saints game last season. AB then replied to that tweet, quote tweeted that, and kind of bashed Juju saying, or bashed everyone for loving Juju. And earlier in the day, he had tweeted, keep your emotions off the internet. He said this himself. He follows that up with quote tweeting the MVP tweet of Juju saying, emotion. Boy fumbled the whole postseason away in the biggest game of the year. Everyone went blind to busy making guys famous.
Starting point is 01:09:14 Not enough reality these days. By the way, check the list. Referring to his previous four MVPs, team MVPs. Okay, so out of nowhere, Juju takes a ricochet shot because a Juju fan tweeted a picture of Juju to Antonio Brown. Antonio Brown, who was in the same wide receiver room, then goes on and buries Juju for his fumble that ended the game against the New Orleans Saints, right? Yes, and this is after Juju had come out and said nothing but love and respect for AB. You know, basically trying to distance himself from the situation. Okay, so Pittsburgh fans have been saying for a long time that Antonio Brown saw Juju's success, was jealous, and that's why he got so angry.
Starting point is 01:09:53 I always just said, no, that's not why Antonio Brown is mad. Antonio Brown gets angry whenever the quarterback, who's supposed to be the star of the team, the franchise, gets held to no standards at all. He goes on local radio shows and buries wide receivers, rookie wide receivers. So I thought Antonio Brown was actually mad because Ben Roethlisberger was burying people in his room, where it turns out I was completely wrong. It was very much a resentment.
Starting point is 01:10:17 It's still a valued issue, though, that you bring up. It could be. It could be he's a super teammate and is mad about Ben burying his teammates, but now it does appear that antonio brown is giving ammo to the people that said that he was resenting juju for his success and his popularity and that is why it all went down in pittsburgh and he ended up in oakland to begin with who knows how it all plays out and what really happened but this is not good for the antonio brown pr firm so then he follows up today with an instagram post of a dm conversation between
Starting point is 01:10:47 himself and juju from 2015 okay juju dms him as a young college student he's playing at usc and this is the exact picture he takes the quote of it says what's up ab i'm a receiver at the university of southern california i appreciate all your work you're a great man on and off the field do you have any tips that can help me take my game to the next level? Thanks, man. AB, post that with a mic emoji and hashtag on to the next. What does that mean? It makes zero sense what Antonio Brown is talking about. Juju Smith-Schuster reached out for his help.
Starting point is 01:11:18 So this is just good for Juju. Oh, yeah. Hey, maybe it's Antonio Brown being such a good teammate just like i've been saying this whole time hey just like i've been saying this whole time he's like you know what let's put over juju that's what in the wrestling business putting over is basically making somebody look good i'm gonna put over juju in pittsburgh by burying juju and making him look like the good guy just so that the pittsburgh steelers fans will embrace him as the new number one guy just like they did for me for my first couple years in pittsburgh what a
Starting point is 01:11:50 great hey hey how about sonia brown how about sonia brown being such a good guy making juju smith-schuster look like such a good guy like this he didn't have to he's in oakland now he's got a whole new team to worry about but he's always looking out for the younger receiver in juju sm Smith-Schuster. It's very nice of him. I'm a little confused by your tactics right now, and I don't know if I like it. It's not like we just figured it out. He's gassing up Juju Smith-Schuster.
Starting point is 01:12:14 Now Pittsburgh loves him even more. Yeah, exactly. Now it's just like, hey, sometimes you've got to burn the bridges behind you so you have nowhere to retreat. That's exactly what A.B. did. He burned a bridge behind him so that Juju could be on that bridge shining for Pittsburgh. It's the city of bridges to retreat. That's exactly what A.B. did. He burned a bridge behind him so that Juju could be on that bridge shining for Pittsburgh. It was the city of bridges, actually.
Starting point is 01:12:29 It is the city of bridges. And Antonio Brown could just kind of move. Yeah, A.B. can go on to the next one, perhaps. Yeah, exactly. This is very nice of Antonio Brown to do this. I don't think anybody else has mentioned how nice he is to make Juju look this good, but Juju's jersey is about to be
Starting point is 01:12:43 top five jersey seller in the entire NFL probably after this, if I had to guess. Thanks, baby. Juju's not blameless. He did lay a shot in there, too, before that Instagram post, which is what inspired it. He said, all I ever did was show that man love and respect from the moment I got to the league. I was genuinely happy for him when he got traded to Oakland
Starting point is 01:12:57 with a big contract, and now he takes shots at me on social media. Crazy how big that ego got to be able to take shots at people who show you love. Okay, so a little bit of an ego shot there but hey by the way sometimes your baby face gets put over by heels gotta send another shot back to make sure people know he's standing up for himself and we all know that this was a choreographed thing between ab and juju it's very nice of them to do that uh also another situation where you can say oh so um i usually hate twitter beeps because i never know
Starting point is 01:13:23 the order i think twitter should like have a tab that puts them in order for you. The thread? Yeah, yeah. No, not even that because usually when they start quoting, it gets it out of the thread. Am I right on this? Yeah, quote tweets do get it out of the thread. So I believe that Twitter should have a system or people that work over there should put them in order in a tab that's called beef. Well, I think there's those
Starting point is 01:13:45 moments twitter moments there where they swipe you know they have those correct those moments where they swipe so that you can put it in but it has to become a pretty large one for twitter to make it a moment but i i think that is something they should try to do more of for the simpletons who crash rvs into awnings to be able to figure it out. I feel that there's more people on this. In your defense, this was a little bit tricky because it was cross-platform. Thank you. A, B, went on IG. And Twitter. Keep it on one.
Starting point is 01:14:12 Well, somebody should make a YouTube news. Oh. YouTube beef news. Oh. Beef Zeet. Who's got the beef? Zeet. Oh.
Starting point is 01:14:21 Yeah. Beef Zeet's back, baby. You got all the deets on the beef. Oh, I like this. Your friend, Zeet. Yeah, there we go. seen it back. Hey, you got all the deets on the beef. Oh, I like your friend. Zeke. Yeah. I can make some money off that.
Starting point is 01:14:28 That show will die in a while. Probably after episode two. I would assume you stop doing it after episode two. You just give up hope. And I'll go to episode 10. I'll make a season. Oh, is that right?
Starting point is 01:14:37 Yeah. Season one. Once MetLife comes after him for the 1.5 million. The MetLife massacre. Probably gonna have to dump this entire thing off the podcast after today. Anyways, we're going to be filed a fucking lawsuit. Connor, you signed for that, though.
Starting point is 01:14:55 It is 100% in Connor's name. Well, on that last piece of paper that you told me to send to Phil or whatever it was, it's all three of us. Because I wasn't actually free. It's you? Technically. Hold on. Just tell me who the names was. It's all three of us because I wasn't actually free. It's you? Technically. Hold on.
Starting point is 01:15:06 Just tell me who the name is. It's me, Jose Perez, and whatever the lady is, her name is. So Pat McVie Inc. is not involved? No, no, no. I use my Gmail email because you got to stay away. She doesn't have to know who I work for. Well, she does now for sure. But my name is legally...
Starting point is 01:15:25 Pat, this business is not legally involved to this RV. At all. The only thing that this business is legally involved with is the... Well, hey, we're going to find out if old billionaire Z is a real thing or not. Oh, yeah. Yeah, because this is going to... You're going to have to bail out Southie Connor out of a
Starting point is 01:15:41 situation potentially here because he's a co-signer on this situation. South, I mean, if we get into situations. SouthieConnor at gmail.com. That lady, man. She didn't want to give you the keys either. Oh, my God. She looked at us. She knew.
Starting point is 01:15:54 Please take care of it. Okay. On the complete opposite end of the spectrum, more Pittsburgh Steelers drama. It still doesn't end somehow. James Connor, Lev Bell had a magical moment on. By the way, Lev Bell released a minute new rap video, music video, and he actually tweeted the question,
Starting point is 01:16:12 is this fire flame or garbage basket, question mark, and the internet responded in a very negative manner. A lot of garbage basket answers, including other NFL players, that Lev Bell did not appreciate he basically said yo you're a real one you would have just texted me uh if you're a real friend you would have just texted me and then old cuzzy responded like well none of your real friends let you know that these were this was a trash bag before you put it out and it got a little dirty there but lev bell said hey nothing but positive vibes lev bell has very much been a
Starting point is 01:16:43 nothing but positive vibes guy he let his agent much been a nothing but positive vibes guy. He let his agent do all the talking whenever he was sitting out and doing everything like that. He was just on a jet ski wrapping around, having a time of his life. And James Conner, University of Pittsburgh running back, who's now Pittsburgh Steeler running back, he started last year in Lev Bell's absence. He beat cancer.
Starting point is 01:17:01 He doesn't want everybody to know that. But he did. He beat cancer. I mean, outstanding citizen in Pittsburgh. Very much beloved. Le'Veon Bell. Great hair. Not loved.
Starting point is 01:17:12 Nick had to get his hair cut for James Connors' hot start he had. He sent a text out of nowhere to Le'Veon Bell, it appears, that Le'Veon Bell did not tell him to do that. Basically saying like, hey, man, I appreciate everything you did for me. I appreciate the love you showed me. I appreciate the love you showed me. I appreciate the mentorship that you showed me. And nothing but positive vibes, basically. And Lev Bell was like, hey, I don't normally do this.
Starting point is 01:17:33 But in the wake of me and Antonio Brown seemingly being tied at the hip in this whole situation, he wanted to distance himself from that and show that, hey, I was a good teammate to James Connor into my room, which is, hey, that's big for Lev Bell. He showed up at offseason workouts for the Jets, too. This might be an entirely new chapter for Lev Bell. But I think all this drama helps out with Steelers fans in a Steelers locker room moving forward and saying, fuck everybody that we used to have here.
Starting point is 01:18:00 It's fucking better. I can't take any more. That franchise used to be the model franchise of consistency and you know no excuses no bullshit no drama and then they turned into the kardashians so the nfl seriously i think i'm gonna be at the draft by the way hey now let's go hey now we might have just broke some news i may or may not be speaking at the draft hey oh should we book another rv at the nfl draft it's at nashville i mean that's something it's i don't think there's any bridges from here to there or awnings i mean now we have
Starting point is 01:18:32 to get a permanent lady hawk too we need a nest yeah we need a nest i think that's what the the hawk gods were trying to tell us that this ain't your hub no this isn't it they got you here it was the nice intro into the hawk world but this isn't the nesting No, this isn't it. They got you here. It was the nice intro into the Hawk world. But this isn't. The nesting. The nesting world. Yes. I agree with you.
Starting point is 01:18:50 Yeah, so I'm going to be at the NFL draft. I believe third round. Let's go. Is when I will be in there. Big round. I don't know. I have no idea. I don't watch the draft.
Starting point is 01:18:58 But I'm excited to be a part of it. I know none of the draftees. Good round. James Conner, third round pick. Okay, here we go. Hey. Russell Wilson. Oh, hey. You can pull some studs out of the draftees. Good round. James Conner, third round pick. Okay, there we go. Hey. Russell Wilson. Oh, hey.
Starting point is 01:19:07 You can pull some studs out of the third. Shane Leckler, I think, was the third rounder. I think Shane Leckler. Was Kirk Cousins third round? Fourth. That fourth round will get you. Kirk Cousins, very much beloved by America, Foxy found out. Hey, I didn't know that, by the way.
Starting point is 01:19:22 I didn't know everyone hated Kirk Cousins. He's like the nicest guy in the entire universe. Is he? Yes, absolutely. He's like the model quarterback. He should be fucking teaching kindergarten somewhere. Model quarterback? What do you mean by that?
Starting point is 01:19:36 As in as a person and a leader and a teammate. Setting the example. Does he? I don't know. You like that? He's got good speeches beforehand. Does he? I don't know. You like that? He's got good speeches beforehand. Does he? Not good enough for Michigan State in the final four.
Starting point is 01:19:50 I didn't get that either. Why was everyone up in arms like, oh, Michigan State picked Kirk Cousins? Yeah, it's in Minnesota, and he went to Michigan State. He's one of the best quarterbacks to ever go through Michigan State. It makes a lot of sense to me. Well, you Michigan State people are upside down. I mean, we know that, but good run by Michigan State
Starting point is 01:20:07 and Tom is an incredible run by Virginia. Very proud of them. WrestleMania was incredible. National Championship was awesome. I hate the trifecta by the way. First half over whole game over. Virginia Moneyline. Ayo, made some money. No big deal. Had a blast with it
Starting point is 01:20:23 and we want to... How's hockey doing? money line. Ayo. Ayo. Made some money. No big deal. Had a blast with it. And we want to... How's hockey doing? Hockey playoffs this week. Wednesday night playoffs kick off. So the NHL starts this week? Yeah. For you guys? Yeah. Yes. Yes.
Starting point is 01:20:36 Welcome to the party, boys. Let's go Bruins. I'm cracking the whip on that bandwagon. Let's go. I rarely do this, but I will say, I mean, it's a big week here. NBA playoffs are also going to start on, what, Friday? Saturday. And then Game of Thrones, Sunday night.
Starting point is 01:20:50 And the Masters. The Masters. Huge week. What a week. I would like it to be known that we did have a hockey talk there, and Nick decided to pivot away from it. Well, I got to save that. I got to save the good stuff for my show.
Starting point is 01:21:03 Nick, I just want to let you know, Nick, I just want to let you know that I don't want to hear another one of your fucking fans telling me that we need more hockey talk. Because I just attempted to have it, didn't I? Yeah, you did. I just tried my best. I just literally gave the entire ship right over there to Nick. And he'd go on ahead and just move to a different pier real quick.
Starting point is 01:21:21 He was just like, nope, let's talk about the NBA, he said. Didn't even plug his show. Didn't even plug his show, huh? Didn't even plug his That's Hockey Talk. I literally just did. I said, I got to save that stuff for the show. What show? What show? That's Hockey Talk, Thursday.
Starting point is 01:21:31 Oh, good plug, good plug. Probably going to do it twice a week in the playoffs, actually. Oh, I didn't know this. I don't know. What's it called? Something to think about. That's Hockey Talk, available on iTunes, Spotify, and whatever podcasts are heard.
Starting point is 01:21:43 There you go. I would like it to be known, though, for all you hockey fans out there with good lettuce and sticky mitts and all that shit i just tried to do a goddamn hockey talk on the show because the play of hockey's starting season start season starting yeah and nick just want didn't want to do it so let's let's go ahead and pivot foxy and i walked right past the game of thrones premiere oh yeah okay there was an entire block shut down. We had to get from A to B and that block just so happened to be in the middle
Starting point is 01:22:10 of it. A lot of people, a lot of people that didn't speak English, an entire crowd, police everywhere. And we're like, oh, something's happening. It's awesome. But Foxy and I were literally in a rush. So we're like bebopping through like you would in a club, you know, and everybody's just looking one direction, like in awe.
Starting point is 01:22:26 Eyes are open and everything like that. We're just like, excuse me, like coming through. We basically were in like the front two rows of everybody too, like pushing through, excuse me, excuse me. And then we turn to our right, and it's this big-ass Game of Thrones thing. And then a Game of Thrones bus comes by. I'm like, oh, shit, let me take this photo for the Throners that we're about to literally go meet
Starting point is 01:22:46 right now that wish they were probably standing right here. I take the photo and as I'm taking a photo one of the cops goes, Pat McAfee? I'm like, yeah, what's up man? Oh shit! Can I get a photo? I'm like, yeah, what's going on here? A bunch of nerds, huh? And he takes a
Starting point is 01:23:02 photo with me and I'm like, nice to meet you. And we walk away. Foxy and I don't even talk about it. We do. We have a meeting with me and i'm like nice to meet you and we we walk away foxy and i don't even talk about it no we do we have a meeting or something and we get with you guys later and like all the fucking news was like uh game of thrones premiere in down new york city man and foxy and i were like oh shit we're front row right in front of that bus we were front we were less than seven feet away from that. If we just parked it there, I think we would have probably been on every television station in the world probably.
Starting point is 01:23:30 That thing is, that Game of Thrones crowd, it was an entire block was filled with human beings. It's the best thing on TV since the moon landing. Yep. Whoa. He said it. Wow. And we did land on the moon.
Starting point is 01:23:41 You son of a bitch. And we did. One rule. We land on the moon. You son of a bitch. And we did. One rule. We landed on the moon. Yeah, we did. I don't know. A documentary. How we landed.
Starting point is 01:23:53 What was it? The Iron Throne, though? That was the giant chair. Yeah, there was Iron Throne. There was a bunch of this. There was a bunch of that. The Game of Thrones bus was gold at one point. It was huge.
Starting point is 01:24:03 You guys probably could have seen the premiere, though. You guys were probably all the way in there. Well, that one cop, too, seemed to be one of the head guys. I think we could have got on the bus if we really wanted to, but we were like, oh, we got a meeting with this guy that's going to give us nothing, so we're going to go see him. We got to go talk to nobody
Starting point is 01:24:19 about nothing real quick. That seems to be my life for the last fucking four years. No or no no four months sorry i've been doing a lot of glad handing with people just these agents you know these yuppies these yuppies these agents they're good people i think they legitimately want the best for for me and for us but if i have to glad hand and if I have to go kiss the ring of another motherfucker that is just going to do absolutely nothing for us, I'm about done with it. I'm fed up with it. What are we waiting for?
Starting point is 01:24:57 The Brinks truck. We've been waiting for somebody to back the Brinks truck up. You hear that? And just have us focus in one. Watch out. Watch out. There is, beep, beep. You hear that? And just have us focus in one. Watch out, watch out. There's a little roof here. Money's coming out. That's all we've been waiting for, though.
Starting point is 01:25:13 Hey, we're ready to go to war for you, too. We do like 45 different things in this office. Very well. It would be nice to have a little bit of a direction to go. Every day we wake up and there's a potential new thing we have to do whether it's a new platform we have to learn how to work because a advertiser wants to do this or we got a podcast we got a live show we got wwe content we
Starting point is 01:25:37 got commentating we got broadcasting we got a network an ad agency we got every single day there's something new so it seems as if a lot of people would like to talk to me and to us to do work with them. And it all ends up being a bunch of bullshit. They're all these old yuppies, old white people. They have no idea what we're doing. They've heard about the internet, but they don't know exactly how it works. And it's an hour conversation out of my life that normally is a good conversation, genuine conversation, but nothing comes of it. So instead of walking 14 blocks through all these throners and have to get there and sit there for an hour and do the whole thing, and then nothing comes of it. Literally, absolutely nothing comes
Starting point is 01:26:13 of it. I've been through 30 of these meetings where just nothing comes from any of it. I'm done with it. But I mean, I did four more of those. Just making it New York City. With that being said. Because the next one could be the one. By the way, that is always how it's presented. It's like, this one's a real conversation. I'm like, I bet. I bet. And I will say, today, I went into Spotify. I met with a pretty high-ranking Spotify.
Starting point is 01:26:38 They seem to really know what they're doing. I don't know if we're the exact demo that they're trying to dive into, but I was very impressed with the Spotify spotify folks today their office was incredible it might as well been on top of uh statue of liberty they they spotify is doing it right i don't know if we're what they're looking for exactly but the meeting was very impressive and i was very thankful that we put our stuff on spotify but most of these meetings have been with a bunch of fucking dumb dumbs right when i'm sitting across the table from these people who are these executives, I'm like, it gives me inspiration. I've talked about it on this show a lot. Whenever I talk to somebody who's very
Starting point is 01:27:11 successful and very stupid, it makes me feel very good about our future. Very, very good. You know what I mean? And when we talk to somebody who's worth a few hundred million and they're just reciting things that we have already said, and I've said this to you guys, when you think of an idea that's already been thought of, but that idea is very successful and you didn't know that that idea existed, what's your brain doing? It's thinking of a very successful idea. Even though it's already happened,
Starting point is 01:27:31 your brain is on the right path. Whenever I sit down at these meetings and we run literal intelligent circles around human, intellect circles around these human beings, it feels very good. And we're just waiting for that brain struck to come back. But I'm sick of these motherfucking glad hand in operations I'm sick of it. I you could tell I gave up hope today
Starting point is 01:27:49 I mean, I literally showed up in this is the most relaxed thing I've ever worn in my entire life into a meeting Mm-hmm size 34 jeans shorts on they're way too tight I got the engagement sleeveless hoodie that hasn't been washed since Hawaii Because my lady took my bag home for me on the plane because i had to walk around new york city i mean it was i'm getting to the point where it's just like i walk in i'm like i know how this is gonna go we're gonna talk for an hour it's gonna be an incredible conversation and there's gonna be nothing on the back side of it but that's why we're a small business and we're an independent operation damn right and we will stand our on our
Starting point is 01:28:21 own two feet oh yeah and we will flap our own two wings oh yeah fly or die and we will stand on our own two feet. And we will flap our own two wings. And we will fly. Or we will die. I'm happy that we just worked for ourselves, by the way. These motherfuckers I talk to, if I was to work for them, I'd probably have to get on top of that RV and have Zito drive on it. All right, that's the show good day tweet us man twitzee we gotta cheer him up he's facing a substantial fine from bmi this is our first time finding anybody so we're gonna have to figure out the logistics of it zito's gonna have to
Starting point is 01:29:00 sell those little coupon books that he used to sell his kids. Car wash. Whatever you need to do, man. You're going to have to figure it out because you fucked the company. I did. Made the RV look a little better, though. Did you? Did you?
Starting point is 01:29:18 There's sun coming out. Why don't you tell the lady that tomorrow? Why don't you tell the lady that? The satellite dish is in the sink. That's the show. Ty Schmidt, congratulations to Virginia. Yeah, good for them. I mean, that is an unbelievable turnaround. Good for them.
Starting point is 01:29:35 It was good for Texas Tech, too, by the way. Making a play there. Good for me for winning my bets. Hey, hey, good for you. Good for me winning my bets. And good for you for choosing to listen to this show. You don't have to, but you choose to, and we thank you for it. Hashtag endgame, hashtag endgame, hashtag we took the roof off at the MetLife.
Starting point is 01:29:55 Go ahead and send your videos or GIFs of what you think the scene inside of the RV was while the roof was getting tore off by an awning at MetLife. Ty compared it to the trenches of World War II. He also compared it to something else off air that I told him he should not say into a microphone or in public ever again. I said that in the RV. That's just for us.
Starting point is 01:30:21 That's just for us. That's in the nest. Exactly. It was a terrible situation. Absolutely. There was a lot of panic. Nick thought he was potentially dead.
Starting point is 01:30:29 So any gifs or videos of reenactments of what you think it was like inside the Zito deathmobile, we will be very
Starting point is 01:30:37 grateful for. And if you make us laugh, some free merch is all yours. Ty Schmidt, hit the music. If pyros and crips all got along
Starting point is 01:30:47 They probably got me down by the end of the song. Seem like the whole city go against me Every time I'm in the street I hear Yawk, yawk, yawk, yawk Jesus Christ Is he the broke character? We're not done. We're not done.
Starting point is 01:31:41 Have an incredible Tuesday. We appreciate you so much. I'm not fucking told. Have an incredible Tuesday. We appreciate you so much. RLN Radio 2.0 is tomorrow. Bro Bro Bro Bets is tomorrow. And the NHL playoffs start tomorrow night. We'll talk about it on Thursday. Cheers.
