That didn't happen. I would have been the game to do it right yeah, and the second game was incredible, too
But yeah, we were we were serving yeah, I feel like I don't know even know what happened based on the clip
Well, I think that's what Dave
Was going for because that's kind of the Met Gala is you don't know what's going on you just see them outside and then on
The inside you just don't have an idea
But it was good. It was a it was basically just like a party where we were watching sports you guys look really good
Especially you really yeah, you know mr.. Formal wear fucking hooked it up. That was your formal wear. Yeah, no Mr. Formalware fucking hooked it up.
That was awesome. Mr. Formalware? Yeah, that's my guy. Yeah, that was nice. Yeah. You rocked it.
He absolutely hooked it up. Everyone else is good. Who? Penis is good. Penis? Penis.
Your penis. Oh yeah, I pissed one out at 2am.m. Last night when I got home. Oh wow Yeah, now that is that considered another one or this just remnants or was it? No, that's another way
That was a new one. I have two new ones
So when you just piss it out no doctor's appointment, I should have saved it
But it was 2 a.m. And we had just spent the whole day
Traveling and doing everything and I was staring at it in the toilet with my piss in the toilet
And I was like, I'm just gonna go to bed.
Yeah.
So, because what's gonna happen is I'm gonna pull it out, go to a doctor's appointment,
the doctor's gonna be like, hey, try to drink more water and eat less salt.
And I'll be like, oh, okay, cool.
Same thing as last time.
That's what it comes down to.
Yeah.
But I called my shot, I told Nick on the plane, I was like, it's coming.
You saw a split stream.
I was going split stream. And unless you- Oh, unless you was stopping that. I told Nick on the plane. I was like it's coming you saw a split stream I was going split and unless unless you was stopping that yeah
The split stream happened the split stream happens for like the two or three pisses before unless you e jacked at the gala
But I don't think you did you jack at the gala didn't Jerry O'Connell almost did he looked like he almost did you see his hog?
The movement was oh everything came together at that moment. Yeah
He's a TJ pull up the hog when he thrusts it was pull up the hog his hog the movement was oh everything came together at that moment yeah he's
a TJ pull up the hog when he thrusts it was pull up the hog it was something he
made Titus look like me look at this My goodness
He was just assaulting hang and a poke someone's eye out and what was how much did he win on his bet I think it was like ten bucks. I think I think you want 40 body. Yeah
But responsibly at some point during the 40 bucks at some point during overtime, Brandon turned to me and goes, is the, the let's go Nick's guy. That's Jerry O'Connell. Cause you could hear,
you could just hear like a guy just yelling, let's go. Let's go. Next. Then Jalen Bronson
all in Hank's here. And then, yeah, finally dawned on he would, that was funny. He would
do that. And then in the timeouts, he he would he would kind of rest during the timeouts where he would just get
Maybe an inch from Hank's ear and just whisper Bing Bong a thousand times
He was having the time of his life the time of his at what point
Does he just join the ship? I know I think he's still I think he's his he's got two daughters in high school still
Yeah, yeah We, we golf with him
I'd like the photo comparison ofody from Toy Story and the green dinosaur
You're probably not the best color choice for a Nick Celtics game
Yeah, he said he bought it a month before the event. He didn't think the Knicks were gonna make the
Yeah, Jerry yeah, we played golf with him
Yeah, yeah, he looked he choked out Dave got written up in the New York Post. Oh
He said he had no choice, but he had to Bing Bong Dave after
We're tied. I have to go Bing Bong Dave. Yeah. So yeah, it was uh flights
Nick did it he did it I was very very very nervous on the way there, and I thought about bailing as we were walking out to the line
The takeoff was vertical and nobody warned me and I was in the backward seat
Yeah, nobody warned me. It goes straight up straight up. Yeah, I think yeah, it's a lot of thrust. Yeah, yeah, I didn't know that
Flight back I was just tired and everybody smelled like smoke the flight there
Zupy shit smell the whole plane up wait. Yeah, we didn't talk about that wait
What's on the plane jet and he's not here to defend himself?
So I do think we should talk about this now wait because I was sleep was about 40 minutes 40 minutes left in the flight
I thought that was just a bad fart No, he took a shit on the plane said it was a long piss and I was like no piss is that long
He said but I also couldn't figure out the flusher tightest
Yeah, I watched Nick confront him and he had no story like like he the soupy soupy thought he got away with it
And Nick Nick had Nick took Zupy's camera put it on Zupy and was just like did you shit on the private plane?
He was flustered for like five seconds. I yeah, he had no response. I was sleeping
I got woken up by the smell right and I thought it was a fart and then oh
He didn't he open that door a savage he opened that door and immediately and the size of that plane
He might as well have shit on my chest. Yeah it woke me up from a deep sleep.
We might have to call him but he vehemently denied. I had shit pains 12 minutes into the flight.
It was a three hour flight. I took 35 tums. I had kidneys I thought my stomach was going to explode.
I was going to die up there I was not going to shit and that motherfucker just strolled back there.
It was like 30 minutes left in the flight. Oh my god. Yeah, you asked for my Tums and I yeah, we both were heroes. I was fighting it dude
I goose bumps when you have kidney stones
You have to like sometimes I just would sit on the toilet and just fart for like 10 minutes being like what is happening to me
I couldn't do that. Was that Zupes first time on the PJ? Yes. Yes. Oh
He said last time for sure
It's kind of a mile high club last time for sure. It's kind of a mile high club. Last time for sure.
It's not a lot of space. It's it's a quarter of this.

And right now it's just mad at Moog.
I can't believe it.
In my defense, all four of those, I wasn't the one who got it.

crossword puzzle Maddie natural I would say? I would say the majority of crosswords were natural.
The majority were natural, but it doesn't matter.
Do you know the first thing I did?
I can't imagine how you felt.
Horrible. Cheated. Betrayed.
I immediately went up and told Austin so we could get in Dave's ear.
Because I think you should go unnamed.
Everyone should know. I'm yeah. What's your I think your punishment is you have
to finish a crossword daddy pen and paper. You think you can even do it? No
chance. Fertility clinic donations. Over. It's over. I deleted the app.
No!
No, like I went home and tried to rewire my brain.
I can never do it again.
Wait, no you can!
You don't understand how astonishingly embarrassing this is.
You came in today and the guys that you cheated in front of saw you and you said you went
to take a walk?
Like you couldn't see them yet, you couldn't look at them.
I walked in the opposite direction of my home I needed
more time it's so embarrassing but Kyle not just the fact that I did that and
I've done that but I got caught in that manner in Van Moek by mook what was his What did he say? He screamed, Kyle! Oh, no.
And my heart sank.
Did you see it pop up on screen before he noticed?
No, I didn't even know my Google phone history was attached.
Kyle, I know that you're going through it right now.
I do think you love crosswords, so why wouldn't you just, like,
take a vow to just do every crossword for the rest
of your life natural? Make it a positive. Turn it around. I think you need like take a vow to just do every crossword for the rest of your life natural?
Make it a positive. I turn it around. I think you need to do a natty stream. Yeah, you do need to do a natty stream pen and paper
I'll just expose myself. I don't have it. You don't think you'd be ever ever get out of that shit
Right now you were the best right now
I can't even like think of like I you don't understand how devastated I am
Yeah, I'm pissed I got caught. I'm you know what you got to do is you got to find out
that everyone else cheated. You got to frame them for cheating. So then it's like we're
all cheating. Yeah frame them. Yeah you can frame him. You can frame him. Nick, is he exiled now?
I don't...
No, I'm not gonna do it.
I haven't been able to process it.
It's like half of your guy's day.
It might be worse for everyone else.
This has really, really hit me hard.
You're not even gonna...
90% of our conversations are about crossword puzzles.
Like you're not...
Our friendship is built on crossword puzzles.
I was gonna say, we're not gonna see Kyle ever.
I just don't know... That's half of your time
I don't know. I couldn't you know anymore. I'm not gonna stick around. Oh
I think we just need to drug test you
I think you need to I think you need to go into the program where you get a suspension and then there's just random drug tests
At random times like let me see your phone. Yeah.
And make sure that you haven't been cheating.
And I think you can get clean.
You can get clean.
Only if he wants to, though.
And I don't think he wants to.
The worst part is, I think he liked it.
I think it felt good to him.
Yeah, did you like it?
The worst part is, I was so good at cheating.
I didn't know that was going to happen.
Yeah.
I guess we have to forgive you then if you're that sorry oh
man
Kyle just change the puzzle. Maybe don't do crossword puzzle. Maybe do different crossword puzzles. Have you been cheating at the other ones?
The dozen yes
Dude I got a rebrand I got I don't know what to do. Maybe just become a dumb jock. I want
to be dumb. I think that's easier because I am dumb in a lot of arenas. Right. So just
lean into those. I'm going to try that. Yeah. Just be a dumb guy. Yeah. Yeah. You can't
do that. You're not dumb. You're not dumb. But no, I know. I know like extensive amounts
of facts about certain things. Right. But the majority general knowledge, but no I know I know like extensive amounts of facts about certain things right but the majority general knowledge
I don't know shit. What do you know more facts than most people about?
Very obscure thing anything
If you added up your totality of facts your your your stack is high no because like some facts are more significant than others
By the way, I was in a Boulder, Colorado over the weekend on Pearl Street the like main
Promenade thing that goes through the town. There's a guy that hangs out there
My wife grew up there and she said he's been there for her entire life
There's a guy who just stands there and instead of busking with guitar or doing juggling or shit
He knows every single zip code in the country. Oh my god
I sat there and watched him for ten minutes that I couldn't stop thinking about
Did you like quiz? Yeah, my mom my mom was with with us and she's from they live in a small town in Indiana now
And and he's going around and like people are saying New York City's zip codes and LA and stuff like that
My mom's like rubbing her hands and she's like watch this and hits him with her and he just he's like you're from you know
He said the town my my mom's from that's and then he even knew like restaurants that in the house
You do like one little nugget every single zip code blew my mind, and then I thought
KB would like to know about this now. I would because that's like that has to be like tens of thousands of different numbers one guy said like
10015 or something which you know is New York or something and the guy goes
You're from and I'm making up the streets obviously, but he's like you're from you're from New York City
Manhattan
126 Street and fifth or something like that. Oh guys the guys like what the fuck
That's incredible.
Yeah. Is there footage of it? Yeah, we got to see footage of this. I went back to record
it. I need, I'll just go back now. Next time I'm there. I went back to it. So funny. Cause
I was like, I should actually record this for KB and I walked back to record it. And
the second I walk up to him and I start, I press record, he's going through the whole
thing and he just stops on a dime and he's like you guys want to see Me juggle
Because he had been doing it for like 20 minutes, and he was like bored with himself. He's like all right
I'm gonna juggle now and I
Yeah, can we see this guy all this it was unreal oh?

great leave without paying I know where you live yeah that's the guy right there

Like Grits and Hushboy
Wait, so has he been all these places?
And so it's really nice to have him here

I was skeptical, I thought like, does he have plants working for him, and then I want to have my mom do it
I don't want it forever. I do my mom's on his payroll. I don't know but
Yeah, he'll just sit there and do it for hours
Wow Oh, he came all the way from Hyderabad. Wow. Oh my god.

This lady came from a place that doesn't actually have too many restaurants.
She came from one of my favorite national parks.
Yellowstone National Park.
Oh my God.
Oh yes.
And they have this really nice geyser there called Old Faithful.
He's incredible. But I... My wife said that he was there when Old Faithful. He's incredible.
My wife said that he was there when she was growing up,
which would mean the internet was kind of in its infancy.
Right.
To where how would he have done this?
I think he's maybe been everywhere.
Library?
Is there like a book?
Yeah, he goes to the library and studies the book.
But like how would you?
He's that committed to doing it.
He said the Charlotte Airport, which I've been in, and's right, you know the the Rockington. Yeah. Yeah, but like
That's not something you find out on Google, right? Oh
Well, I mean look at me. I was looking up like Springfield facts to have yeah true
What did yeah, so he wasn't he doesn't even think about it
He just I mean the second you say right he's always cheating TJ TJ Can you look up how many zip codes there are in the US?
And I expected him to be more socially inept yes, oh he's in it
Yeah, then he gets bored with himself. He's like all right. I'm gonna juggle now and the starts juggling
Remember to put that in perspective like I know only a hundred and ninety eight capitals. Oh
My god, and we're blown away by yeah, you knowing that because I mean that is insane that you know all those
And that's a hundred ninety eight of those fourteen thousand and forty one forty one thousand
Yeah, like do you think you could even?
if you sat down and you're like hey name just professional athletes
could you could you get to 41,000 I don't think I don't know oh yeah there's
that game people play on a flight they try to name a thousand before their
flight lands on a notebook that's crazy yeah probably not thousands I don't know
if I remember all the zip codes I've lived in in my life. No, I couldn't even just do that.
No, I don't know at all.
Oh yeah, I definitely can't.
I don't even think I remember the one from Brooklyn.
I don't remember New York.
Insane.
Shit.
Hutchinson, Kansas.
I know the one I grew up in and the one I live in now.
I can't remember any other one.
Damn it.
I just want to go out there and I want to go out.
Yeah.
I want to take 1,000 guys with me
and I want to go down the line.
I just want to watch him do it.
In my head, he wouldn't be able to get wheeling and name
restaurants there, but he would.
Absolutely would.
We'd get out there, man.
Put him to the test
Shit, that lady you live at Yellowstone. Yeah, that was weird. I was where I think she's trying to throw him off Yeah, I had a buddy. It was born in Yosemite. Oh whoa Casey Casey
Casey Hancock
so this shouldn't
We should still like Kyle did she oh yeah
We should still like Kyle did cheat. Oh yeah.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
So I think the plan is to have him do a...
A natty.
A natty, natty's natty.
So pen and paper.
Pen and paper.
He doesn't seem interested in doing a natty.
And then he has to agree to routine checkups.
Fair.
Where it's just like, hey Kyle, let me see your phone real quick.
I think it would be anticlimactic.
Yeah, can I just cuz I would nail him and he's gonna go it would soften the blow of the cheating act
He's going on more. Why didn't you go in Cognito mode? Yeah here on out start. Yeah
Private mode has saved you oh
Man were you did you sleep last night? I mean I
Read a self-help book
David Bayer, I don't want you to did you yeah, I had to change something
quit uh
Crossword puzzles though love I have to does he love the puzzles love cheating
Yeah, what did you love one? Did you love more?
thrill of cheating or the thrill of getting the puzzle that you knew the ones you knew are the ones you cheated to get which
Were more satisfying or is it the power you held over everyone in the room you were the Savior you knew something
They don't know I'll say I cheated when I when it was over and we weren't having fun anymore
You recaptured the fun in order to get make people feel pride in themselves. Yeah. Oh, I did it you cheated for them
Yeah, I cheated for them.
They cheated for you, Nick.
So I should thank you.
But how many have we collectively given up on and checked?
A lot.
Didn't cheat those.
No, that's fair.
Actually, I have a couple of them.
It's a joke.
Shit.
But honey, think of all the women I didn't
Man I could have could have oh yeah
I'm like heartbroken for you. It's a weird emotion cuz I like anyone else I'd be like I can't believe you did that but it's like yeah, I know you love the game
And the game led you astray
No, no the game did not lead him astray. Can we stop that
narrative? Did you? When did you start doing it? Did you feel the
game was passing you by? And you needed to you always been doing?
Yeah. Yeah.
Even in New York, we were standing all together. Yeah,
more so than
you would just like take a step like 15 guys easier to do it. Oh man
Do you regret the cheating at all? I regret getting caught
I'm not even lying that I got caught. Yeah so much
So really if you didn't get caught it would never have you never would have Had the feeling on your own volition being like maybe I'll stop now. Yeah, I've never felt guilt doing yeah, yeah
Yeah, and the crossroads are hard. I don't know how you guys do it. I used to walk over and see it and just be like uh
Yeah, I got nothing yeah, that's me, too
Would you I was never good before yesterday that he was the best far and away
Like we're and I use who I strive to be we're taking a hit as a company because we just lost like what our
Shining beacon of intelligence. Yeah, we lost our best puzzler. Yeah
Yeah, it was all I think our next best puzzle. I saw me smokes
Man, he's like Barry Bonds. You were already a Hall of Fame caliber guy, but then you wanted to be a god
Yeah, I can't even accept that company. I
Mean I guess I can say it's very rare that I did it but yeah, it doesn't have be a lie
It would be a lie it would be a lie it was it was but
it's worse to make excuses the the younger kids around here idolized Kyle
when they walked in that room they just wanted to impress you they wanted to get
one right in a puzzle and And I loved that feeling.
Lucas Blutman came in here before this.
He was like head down kind of moping.
I was like, what's going on?
What's happening?
He's like, I'm just disappointed.
He's real beat up.
And yeah, he's like, Kyle, I got a question for you
that's going to hurt all of us possibly.
When we when we do Sporkle as a group.
Oh, too. It's like no one even notices
Cheating on this work. I'm out like every time no. I'm kidding
I've never done that okay, and I don't do I don't cheat on the personal ones that I do on my phone
But the sporkles it's I again. It's like I'm trying to help everyone else be happier.
It is true.
When we like finish one that we're stuck on...
The happiness is still real. The moment was still real.
For them.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He created the moment for them.
Right.
If anything, you should, like, your only crime was that you wanted people to be happy.
I did so much for them.
Right. Like your only crime was that you wanted people to be happy. I added so much for them, right?
But that's like letting your dad like your dad lets you beat him and basketball or something. Yeah

I think I'm gonna be inside all summer why I've been playing halo
Yeah, I got an Xbox. Do you know what I might want to start playing again? It's GTA. That'd be fun
I didn't know and this is just me next year 26. Yeah, I got moved back again
I thought it was coming in like three weeks
Move to the year. I didn't know that there hasn't been a new one since 2013 a long time
I didn't realize it was that long. I didn't had no idea because I've been out of the gaming world
It's still I just thought they put a new one out every two years
My son's a huge Tommy's a huge gamer and he doesn't know
He's never played GTA. That's crazy. This next one, he'll be.
That'll give him so many new ideas.
He'll be 15, he'll be 16 years old when it comes out.
15.
I need to get like a limitless drug
so that I can not sleep and start gaming again.
What was the one where you could be
like an evil ice cream truck?
That was Twisted Metal.
Twisted Metal was another one I remember.
Sweet Tooth.
GTA.
Those were days.
Yeah, just like being like, oh, the new GTA is out.
Just clear my schedule for the next three weeks.
I'm not going to see sunlight.
So it's 2026?
Yeah.
It's a show.
Laying outside last week.
Oh.
But a new trailer came today.
A new trailer hit today.
Yeah.
I don't know why they're doing a trailer a year in advance, but whatever.
I think movies do that, right? How does the trailer look?
It looked like GTA.
A lot of, what did you say, TJ?
Big booty Latinas?
I said it looks like your big booty Latina girlfriend
is a main plot point of the game.
Oh, that's pretty cool.
It's a GTA about Nidu?
Yeah.
It looks like there's a romance element to it.
What?
Nidu, he said last night, the reason he didn't come
was he couldn't have a plus one.
He couldn't have a plus one.
But nobody had a plus one.
Nobody in the entire, none of us had.
Pep did, Gilly did, but yeah.
Yeah, he said that he wouldn't have felt right going
to a back gala on Cinco de Mayo without a hot Latina.
And then he posted a guy that looks just like him with a hot Latina.
Yeah.
To prove that it's possible.
To prove that in an alternate world.
I wasn't invited to the Beck Gala.
Sadly, I had to decline due to the fact that when I am dressed to the nines, I only show
up when I can have a baddie with me.
Me including my beautiful plus one was declined and to be fair
Latinas on Cinco de Mayo only made sense anyway. Sorry y'all I
Know we were all
What did he say was the dumbest question he's ever been asked oh?
It was like quote tweeted it was like live with Rico for a year or something now if you'd ever been with a Spanish one
Oh, that was
Dumb question
Man I want to go back to the back. Do we have a update on mincy today? Oh, yeah
All time
We get we get we leave the back gal around eight o'clock. We get back on the plane to come back
we're in we're in the air and We get we leave the back gal around eight o'clock. We get back on the plane to come back.
We're in we're in the air.
And so like to explain, we flew down on Monday morning. So it was a one day trip. We flew down Monday morning.
We all had like backpacks or whatever.
Threw it on the plane. Get there.
Do the back gala.
Throw our backpacks back on the plane. Get there, do the Beck Gala, throw our backpacks back on the plane, get
it back to Chicago.
We're in the air and we get a text from security guard Mike and he said, hey, just a heads
up, Mincy's bag is on your plane.
How?
There was at no point, I don't think I saw, I saw Mincy for like two seconds.
There was at no point did our bags cross each other and at no point
Would he have his bag?
Like I don't understand how his bag ended up on our play under the impression that he was always gonna be on the plane
I don't know how he was never in a car with us never in the car that had the bags
He was never in the hotel where our bags were temporarily where we change
It was there a day before I was never on the plane there, and he wasn't on the plane back his bag
Ended up on the jet and he didn't take a red eye last night. He's flying back with no bag
so why soon because
Like I think Megan took a red ice or yeah took her bags to the event so she could go to the airport
You do that, but he wasn't
He wasn't getting on a plane. Oh
At least I'm the best dressed guy in the Phoenix Airport
Why am I wearing the same suit last night?
No, it was not because I was an all-night bender. I checked my bag at DraftKings yesterday I saw my clothes on it put it up up, did everything right. What? No! No! Unfortunately misunderstanding,
our security grabbed all the bags
and threw them on the flight to Chicago last night.
So, hey, I'm here, I'm having to rock my suit,
my new shoes, whatever on the flight back,
it's totally on brand, but hey, we're in one piece.
We're looking pretty damn good. It's a threes.
Far from the course.
So, I mean, it wouldn't have it any other way.
We got an email that if you're flying out tonight, bring your bags.
He had no reason to bring his bag.
No, no, no, that wasn't even...
That was a text.
The group, the text that he was not on saying, hey, bring your bag.
But I think there was overarching to other people.
But there was no need for him to bring...
He wasn't flying out.
He brought his bag to the event
At the hotel
Email told him to yeah, I thought he traveled
After the event was over he would go to the back back back check
He packed up his room to go to draft case We checked into his hotel on Sunday bring his bags to the event he had already spent a night there
You already spent a night there. You got there Sunday
And he was expecting at the end of the back alley gives back back go back to the hotel
reopen and unpack
And he's like I did everything right oh my god
Everything right and the only thing that would make it more crazy is like it means he was in the bag himself
Yeah, how about possible I?
Thought we were gonna have his wallet. I have I had I don't know how many bags yet
I have one in my house
You have as we were leaving last night like the guy that was handling the bags at the airport was like anybody know who do
I do with this and I was one of the last people to leave so I was like I guess I have to take it
Oh my god. Yeah, he's something else. What should we do with it? Should we I think we got it would you have it at your house? I forgot to bring it in shit
I was to say we should do it on boxing
Yeah, I don't I couldn't even imagine what's in there different slimes and goops
Pocket for goop and one for slime and then like a side one for crud
and then what a side one for crud And then what desktop computer
But like I just need I need to know what he
Did everything right he did one thing did one out of one thing wrong yeah?
One thing to do any he missed he went on purpose you try to smuggle. You can't do it on part
What if we knew? He was doing on purpose. You try to smuggle. You can't do it on part. Oh
Shit if I got shit at my house right now. Yeah, what if that bag is hot? Oh shit? I got a you got a live chicken or something. Yeah
And then what about him saying that the sperm ray sirs had contact. Oh, yeah
Oh forgot about that made no sense. Is that real mincy was like yeah real crazy coincidence
My friend wants to be in a sperm race. This was right after we talked about it on the yak yeah
They contacted him, but he said it was before we even talked to them. That's what he claims
He's got a bunch of sperm in that bag ready to go
There's no way there's no way the campy boy about sperm
race what do you mean somebody wanted me to do what what what the same mincy
what who invited you to the sperm race I have a buddy that's gonna do it the
poker world and he was like tell me it it would be the funniest thing of all time if you did it.
The funniest thing of all time.
Did you do it?
It's not yet.
It's open invitation right now.
Are you going to do it?
I mean, the funniest thing is the same day I got invited,
Big Cat brought up me and the sperm race and the act.
So I got hit up about sperm race.
Yeah.
It's pretty funny.
Oh my God.
Funniest thing.
How devastating would it be

Am I wrong to say he looks like a hot Malisek?
Oh that's not fair.
Especially the one on the left.
Wonder what his drink taste was.

That stubble dude, that might be the,
you could pick one thing, like I think I would take the stubble over six-pack.

Oh, and she's so nice too. He was a nice guy
Yeah, was he oh, I was yeah, hoping I hope he was a nice man my back out
Losing a lot of money and also feeling like my stomach was gonna explode so it wasn't the funnest
Man, what's the pain?
Yeah, how does that work? It's one to ten it
Goes in like wait. It's like starts so when it goes from your kidney to your ureter
That's where the like significant pain is that's Saturday was I woke up and I was like oh my back really hurts
Is it is peeing it out the worst part, though? Peeing it out is painful, but it's not as painful
as when it's moving in your body.
And then this time was weird because I had crazy nausea.
I just puked randomly twice this weekend.
Like, I was sitting on Sunday night.
We came in to do PMT, and I was sitting
watching the Cavs-Pazers game.
Oh, I heard that.
Oh, you did?
Yeah, it was loud.
Yeah, I'm a loud puker. And I was just sitting there, and I was sitting watching the Cavs Pacers game. I heard that. Oh, you did? Yeah, it was loud. Yeah, I'm a loud puker.
And I was just sitting there and I was feeling totally normal.
And then all of a sudden it felt like I took a tequila shot on a roller coaster
and just went and puked.
Like, it's like it was it's one of those like instant like, oh, shit,
now I have to puke.
Like, and I ran to the bathroom.
Yeah, I was next to Jack and he was like, your guy, Jack Wiper.
It's like, I think like it's at the point where we should check on him. I think he's fine. He's got kidneys. Yeah, I was next to Jack and he was like your guy Jack Wiper. He's like, I think like it's at the point
We should check on him. I think he's fine. He's got kidneys. Yeah, I'm fine
But we were growing up like they would say like pissing out kidney stones was ten out of ten pain
Well, I think that if it's like so mine are on the smaller side. They're five millimeters and up they do the lasers
Oh surgery minor mine were four millimeters and three millimeters. So they vibrate you? Yeah, they vibrate you. And then yeah, I mean, I
pissed mine out. It hurts. You can feel it coming too. Like last night I could, my
stomach hurt all night and I was like, I think this is gonna happen soon. And then
the dual piss on the plane. But like having passing one on a private jet had
to have been like, no, it wasn't. It't it was at home yeah it would have been sick wouldn't been as sick as Zupy shit we need it all right
he's on a plane we need to talk to a hound dog you send him the zoom link and
see if he's crazy move yeah the PJ toilet is a prop he's gonna deny this I
don't think sounds like he tried to like it, but he was flustered and then just said I didn't do it
And I here's the thing that really I was filming him when I accused him and he goes I edit this this won't make the car
Oh now it will zoom II
I mean, we don't have to ask that's the guiltiest man alive. Yeah
That's so crazy that I cuz I went back to sleep
But I vividly remember waking up your head was probably
Yeah, five and a half inches from turd. Yeah
Yeah, I was right there
Yeah, it's not far. You're on the same plane as the turd eyes looking a little pink. What hour was it in into the trip?
Well, it was it was on the way there. I
Want to say it happened. It was late in the flight. It was it was like
It was on the way there. I want to say it happened.
It was late in the flight.
It was like probably 30 minutes left in the flight,
maybe 45 minutes left in the flight.
We had been on the plane for two and a half hours.
So he probably had tried to make it.
And then he finally saw the finish line
was just a little too far.
And I think he gave in.
He was in there a while.
And as soon as he opened it up, stink.
What a savage.
So you-
It's a savage move.
How could he have, let's, let's,
let's live a, let's say that he has to poop.
He does, there's no avoiding it.
Yeah.
What's the best way to go about it if you're him?
Where it's like, I am going to poop on this plane.
You say, listen everybody, I'm sorry.
Yeah, this is bad.
Pre-apology.
Yeah, like I have an issue.
I have no choice.
And everyone would be able to, you know,
stop breathing through their nose.
You'd have to wake me up.
Yeah.
Oh, because now I'm thinking, I've
been trying to breathe through my nose when I'm sleeping.
Right.
So I was just, I wimped.
You really.
I just got deep in there.
Yeah.
It's embedded in your nose fibers.
Oh my god
That is a savage savage move, but like you don't even do that on a boss innocent No proven guilty you don't all I'm saying was he was in there for a long while and it smelled of pure
unadulterated shit you you
We I've been on the RV many times and there's a very hard and fast rule
You do not shit on the RV and the RV is like four times the size the cabin. So would you rather him sneak shit
or try to hold it and shit himself? No the only thing the only play if you
have to do it is to just be like I have an emergency yeah and then everyone has
to be like oh we feel bad but even we know we're silently judging you. Brandon
was battling emergency yeah he asked for my tums five minutes into the five minutes into the trip. Yeah, I was panicking. I was panicking bad
I was I
Was closer to asking them to turn around than I was going? Oh
Man Nick would have not liked that
Would they do that no, but
What so he has two bags? What's Stephanie just sent me this
Oh my god live update from the plane. I
Don't wait
Now this is even more so he had another bag, but he didn't check that one
Also, I got a Liam sent me a clip of Mark going through the bag
It was just his like suit bag with his stuff put in it mark who can he put his yeah?
Yeah, I mean, I don't know I'd wait because he put his clothes in a suit
He's a suit bag yeah the bag
I have is his suit bag and then it's like just a bunch of shit at the bottom like a bunch of shit
So I I mean I wasn't like snooping as much as I was like trying to figure out if there's a better way to go
About packing this stuff, so I just like zipped it open and then it looked like a bunch of just wadded up clothes
And then there's like a shoebox. Oh you we brought drugs back. Yeah, I think there drugs in there somewhere. Yeah
But it's just at a soup bag
Diamonds I Am
To a jewelry box
Nice shoes Edmonds not diamonds
Just making sure if I'm
holding his bag
Bummin said Hank has his other bag. I don't know if that means here. We get three
He only checked two out of three?
What if he just had a gun?
You don't mind taking a bag to the airport?
Wait a minute, this is just very confusing now.
Three bags.
Why would you not bring all your stuff to the...
Yeah. Oh!
Hey buddy! You!
Hey!
How's it going?
What's up?
I didn't realize this happened because I was sleeping,
although I did wake up during it.
But what do you want to say for yourself?
Brandon's lying.
Brandon?
It's Nick and Brandon.
It's everybody on the plane, dude.
I mean, just didn't happen.
And I know how this goes.
Zupy, stop.
Stop right there. I didn't know you were going to this goes. I'm so be stop stop right there
I didn't know you were gonna do this. I didn't you went back there myself
You were you were in there for ten minutes. You came out. It smelled like pure fucking shit
Ten minutes is wildly dramatic
Wildly dramatic soupy. I going to give you one chance right now.
Okay.
And I'm going to give you immunity, and you can edit it out of the stool streams, but
you have to admit right now if you were shitting or not.
I will say hand up. Was not. And I know how this goes.
Okay, well then it gets in. Then it gets in. Then the clip goes in.
What clip? Of Nick interrogating you on the plane. And I know how this goes okay. Well then it gets in then it gets in then the clip goes in
What clip of Nick interrogating you on the plane? Oh, they already deleted it. I already deleted it
You're so guilty
Yeah Okay, I know how this goes. There's nothing I can say that'll make you guys be like, oh you didn't
This the poop stuff happens like quarterly at this company. So
been accused of it before
This is his first
He's getting so much the light out of this look at
Just look how gleeful he is I take a page out of Kyle's book who has been cheating on the crossword for his entire life
and just admit it I
Listen if it was me I would admit it because
If well no one else who went in there. Oh, jays if I did it did you guys really smell something it woke it?
That was a brother like it's felt like I until I thought you were farting in your sleep
He never I I had no idea
That this all had occurred except for the fact that I woke up being like man
It smells like shit, and then went right back to sleep so this story Nick's telling it right now
There's no joke about the odor Brandon when we landed he was like y'all know to Zupy shit
And we were like was it a fart Zupy? It was a long piss you farted
Farts dissipate like like two okay, and then you said not you said not how long were you in the bathroom?
Like five minutes maximum I couldn't figure out the thing
Okay, my first time on the plane
I literally was pressing every button in there trying to figure out which one was flushing and I couldn't oh cuz you had to flush
the shit
No, no, I was toilet paper. Why toilet paper?
Wait, why was there toilet paper in there, Zupy?
Well, because you pee standing up on a plane.
It's not always going to be the cleanest operation.
I don't want to just, like, leave that for you.
Oh, my god, I think I'm starting to believe Zupy.
Yeah, guys, I'm being as honest as I possibly can.
I'm sorry. There is no believing Zupy.
He can do whatever he wants.
The man went in the bathroom when he came out.
I'm not a bad guy
You're not a fan of all your work
Brandon and do it Nick brought it up. Okay, so this whole I'm gonna
Know Brandon didn't do it Nick brought it up. Okay, so this whole I'm gonna I all I know
Two guys who I thought were my friends. I am your friend all I'm I I'm it smelled it smelled I'm sorry can I give one other theory sure the worst smelling farts in the world are pre poop farts and
Somebody else on the plane was holding in some serious poop from the beginning
Maybe they saw soup he go in the bathroom and said this is the plane was holding in some serious poop from the beginning,
maybe they saw Zupy go in the bathroom
and said this is the right time to let it out.
He was to the point where he couldn't fart.
Right.
Oh, because it was gonna come out.
It was a sprint to the...
I was clenched.
Zupy already admitted he farted.
So I think twice.
Yeah, there's two farts when they're that bad.
When there's right there's nothing,
that's just how it goes.
Zupy, we were home playing for three hours.
It looked like you tried to make it, you didn't quite make it, and you finally gave in.
I think that's a human thing to do.
No, I just, the only reason I went to the bathroom was because we were going straight
to the golf course and I didn't know if I would have a chance out there.
All right.
I think he's, he would he would tell us yeah we're all
Zupy fans though yeah what he he would he would yes maybe yeah but you are on
you are on thin ice when it's one when it comes to odors now I think you're on
odor watch yeah okay I can't trust you Brandon you don't start out buying it. I
Mean I he wants to turn into personal fandom and everything
I'm a fan of Titus and I'm fan of Dan fan of Kate if any of them shit on the plane
I'd say this shit on plane. That's fat and and you should on a plane
So you're 100%? I'm a hundred percent
You're a hundred percent wrong. Oh, damn. That's fine, 100%.
You got 100% off.
I've...
100% off.
There is a slight difference of smell between fart and shit.
And this was a shit smell.
Undeniable, yeah.
This was an open-air turd smell.
The delight on Zupy's face, as he's talking about.
He got away with it.
That's the, yes.
We don't have, we don't have. There's not enough proof. That's the most damning proof. I wasn't on the plane, I don't know, but I am seeing ay's face. He's talking about. He got away with it. That's the, yeah. We don't have, we don't have. There's not enough proof.
That's the most damning proof.
I wasn't on the plane, I don't know,
but I am seeing a man's face.
Can they pump the?
Yeah, I wonder if we could talk to Chuck's friend.
Let's call Chuck's boy.
Dude, there was so much.
Yeah, that would be great.
That would be great.
That would clear my name.
Zuby, what shape was your fart?
What does that even mean?
You know what he's asking.
What did it look like?
Was it a big cloud? Was it a big cloud?
Was it a slow leak?
I would say probably closer to a slow leak.
OK.
Yeah, that's a good description.
Slow leak.
There's just no way.
I have a brain.
Why would I do that on a small little thing?
Why would you hold grueling pain in your stomach for four hours?
I don't have stomach issues like that.
Everybody has to shit, Zupy!
Everyone poofs.
It's not grueling pain, like I can always hold it.
You don't have emergency shits?
No, not really.
Wow.
They're called diarrhea.
Yeah, because you just go to work.
That's just wrong.
Alright, we're gonna have to make him have an emergency shit.
Everybody has this feeling, Zupy.
It's not unique to you or anybody else.
Look at the fucking smirk.
I did when I... Yeah, now his defense is like, I don't shit. Unique to you or anybody else Look at the fucking smoke. I think we're gonna
Like I don't shit. I think next time we're gonna have to go in yeah
Yeah, we're gonna do a smell test
If it's yeah, I'm gonna have to fall asleep in the Wilcompton Museum and see if you can wake me up
That's that's unfortunate. Yeah
The fart all right, man. He's gonna as soon as he hangs up. He's gonna have the fucking
But you won't believe that's what I just pulled on these guys
See you later, I appreciate it guys Kyle does every Kent State dude look like you yeah, right? There's a lot of us like that
Yeah, I
Have never been social my god. No. Oh, he used to be one of my favorites
Oh, I'm catching heat in the group
That word to say about him, but now no longer to think he probably had his phone is look at that brotherhood

You thought you could walk in.
Morning sunshine on Zoom because it was COVID.
And she thought she was behind her background.
My green screen.
So she went and changed clothes.
And she just took her shirt off and was changing clothes.
And she was just coming.
You saw her tease?
Yeah.
No, I saw her take her shirt off. I looked away. I said, Kate! Kate! And was changing clothes and she was just
I saw her take her shirt off. I looked away. I said Kate Kate and she she's like what did you see that? But am I right that there's nothing to see really so you're not missing out. It's okay. Anyway, check out that tick-tock
It's new with you guys?
Chase, we need to get the lab.
Trained after.
He was in the cockpit.
Smelling there after, no.
What about smelling during the flight?
He was in the...
Great pilot, by the way.
Oh, he's the man.
Yeah, he's great.
Who else is on the plane with you guys?
On the way down is me, PFT, Brandon, Zupy, Nick.
We were the only ones...
And Blutman. And Blutman.
And Blutman.
We were the ones in the back.
Us three were in the back.
Oh yeah, Blutman.
Did Blutman know it all?
He didn't know the bathroom, no.
Blutman was asleep and in the front seat.
He and I were back to back.
Blutman, did you smell?
No, okay, so it didn't reach.
Blutman slept the whole time.
Yeah, that's true, he did sleep.
I passed to PFT, thinks that he did,
in fact, said Zupy was sweating a little.
Oh, a new witness. Damn. Time will tell. Damn. Both move. I
mean, y'all can continue. He wanted to make it personal and
he wanted to say, I thought Brandon was a better friend
than this. Listen, the facts are facts. Did you shit or not?
You guys did 100% off.
Yeah, facts don't care.
Never seen that before.
Yeah, you both are 100%.
I'm 100% right now.
That's if you take away the plain part
and like say we just put you on a metal pod right here
and someone's shitting the pod, that's crazy.
Crazy.
That's crazy.
Again, an RV is way bigger
and we all respect the rules of the RV.
Kyle chose his meme in the crossword group chat.
Who was it?
It's just the guy upside down in the Nutty Putty cave.
What?
The guy who gets trapped?
Yeah.
That's a-
He's still hanging there?
Everybody's shitting on him.
Oh, yeah.
He's still down the cave, yeah.
That's what he ran away to pick, that.
That's his group.
Oh.
Where is he right now?
I don't know.
I love how he's handling this,
where it's actually no remorse.
He's remorse, yeah.
Any hero getting caught.
Yeah.
He's mad at Moog.
Yeah, mad at Moog.
Not really saying sorry for anything.
He's not.
I think he's doing it right.
Yeah. Still sees himself as a hero. Yeah. He's not like. I think he's doing it right. Yeah.
He still sees himself as like a hero.
Yeah.
He's trying to help.
Yeah, the ends justify the means.
He spun it that every good moment I felt from Crosswords
is because of him cheating.
Oh, by the way, just so you know,
Steve Adore was 100% looked up.
Yeah, I know.
Because that's great.
None of us would have heard that word.
Yeah, how would he know that?
Is Ed here?
He's on his way
He had a doctor he's going to be Ed
Has a twinkle in his eye every time he looks at Kyle and sometimes Edward just do that silently head shake like impressed
Fuck man, I'm gonna tell him not to look at Twitter man
Have any of you ever cheated on anything
Yeah, 81% I mean that's that's a pretty pretty shit on the I used to cheat
I used to have to memorize prayers for school
And I would type them really small put them on the back of my tie
So I bend over and I could see it but cheating on a prayer felt so bad. Yeah, I mean I would cheat on my homework
Yeah, like that was yeah. Yeah cheat on many as soon as I've said it before
But as soon as I found out that every other answer in the was
In the back of the math textbook
That's where my math career ended because I would just scribble for the even numbers and then give the right answer for the odds
Kyle we got Ed coming in you ready to see his face now
Who's the most vocal in the group chat
The scariest is Austin this group has been dead for
years yeah I just it was our New York group chat yeah what's Austin saying
there they're shocked they're speechless pretty much Austin text Kyle separately
and said I heard period disappointed period and Kyle said everything gone
Kyle said everything gone
Yeah, not gonna try to explain myself or my level of innocence in any way guilty is guilty I'm going to completely disassociate from all things crossword word games and puzzles. I'm done
Wait all I will also retire from performing any acts of intellect
any acts of intellect. Okay.
Say that again.
I'm serious.
I was texting Eddie to tell him to not even look at Twitter.
I want him to come in blind.
I'm not going to try to explain myself or my level of innocence in any way.
Guilty is guilty.
I'm going to completely disassociate from all things crosswords,
word games, and puzzles.
I'm done for good.
I will also retire from performing any acts of intellect
Also, you should be throwing like and I also don't apologize. I'm not yeah, I'm not sorry. I'm still in the mad stage
Yeah, don't apologize who is who are you most mad at?
The cat all three of the dudes yesterday just who saw it didn't like maybe pull me aside afterwards in private
Yeah, maybe it maybe Google for showing that stuff that
You know wait so did once they saw in the room. How did everyone else find out they posted it on Twitter?
I got a word spread and I don't blame them for spread for spreading the word like it has to be acknowledged
You should have just threatened to kill him
No, I'm not I'm not mad if Kyle had to kill all three of them. Hey, what does it get out? What happened?
What would his if we showed up and Kyle had killed those three people those three individuals?
What would we have accepted? Well if he had said they found out about the crossword thing. I would have been like well
That's kind of funny. I feel like Kyle's terms terms of murder that would be one of the funniest murders possible
Crossword it looks like I got I felt cornered. I had to murder yeah
You like the meme I sent nutty putty
Of nutty putty that was the cave. Oh, yeah, this belongs out. It's called. I didn't know that I think that's right. Yeah, I think so
Yeah, the man was trapped is how you feel right now
Yeah
so much of me wants to explain like
Here's why I'm not that guilty, but you can't do that
You can't
Yeah, that's you all right, that's Dean Shit. You can't... Yeah.
That's Dean.
Quite the predicament.
Man.
There's no way you can give it up.
You can't.
I will.
And any acts of intellect whatsoever.
Anyone here who could do it, it's Kyle.
Who could just be like cold turkey, I'm never doing it again.
What are you gonna replace it with?
being dumb
Just chilling around shadow White Sox Dave for a week
I can't if I like oh like look at this crazy thing that Kyle knows look how look how smart he is
Look at what he memorized
It does it will look so fraudulent
Look at what he memorized. It will look so fraudulent.
And pathetic.
We should have like, we should create a workspace.
It's just like White Sox, Dave Mincy, and you.
And we have to sit every day.
You have to get dumber.
It's an easier life.
You want to get lobotomized.
You're self-lobotomizing yourself.
You're severing yourself.
I want to completely change how I feel, act, and perceive the world.
This is bad. You're self-lebotomizing yourself. You're severing yourself. I want to completely change how I feel, act,
and perceive the world.
This is bad.
No one's saying anything.
In the group?
They're just letting it sit.

Hit a couple natural.
Your phone.
You're giving the group chat an ultimatum.
You said we could do this one of two ways.
What does that mean?
The second way is giving up puzzles.
What's the first way?
The first way is me to try to like earn your trust and
like prove myself as a good crossword player to like show
like genuine sorrow and sympathy. How would the group
know that you're not cheating though? Exactly. So, I'm done.
Oh my god. Unbelievable. Do you guys see uh by the way, it's
not uh we didn't invent it but uh there's just a new sport Oh my god. Unbelievable. Did you guys see, by the way, it's not,

picture and left
That was that that was that I was literally that
Did it like ruin your day? Oh?
Well that was right before I went to the emergency room for the kidney stone so my day was already trending
In a downward spiral, but it didn't help yeah for sure there was no part of it that I was like kidney stones weren't the worst
Part of yeah, yeah, Cody probably was thank God. I have these kidney stones distract me from
weren't the worst part of yeah yeah Cody probably was thank God I have these kidney stones distract me from Cody yeah it Yeah, so. Let's be great. Let's be great. Sentence at best.
Yeah.
All right.
He's a weird.
It is a big shirt.

I like how on Friday we were talking about
whether to tag you or not,
and he just double tagged.
Yeah.
Caption and photo.
I was like, don't tag me
because it won't get as many reachers.
He's double tagged.
The design may be gaudy,
but at least it doesn't fit him.
Drop your Derby day fits.
Oh, 1 million views.
That counts.
Damn.
Preseason.
Absolutely not.
I mean, Cody, we were saying, because Connor did his Mostly
Sports Star Wars episode yesterday,
which was great.
Everyone should go watch it.
I still don't know why Cody died.
No, it was, it was one of the early highlights of it though. Cody being brought into the
body.
But that still doesn't match up in my head.
There was no real logic to it.
Just so we could say somebody had to do it.
Maybe we found out Connor's actual feelings toward Cody. First thing he could do, it killed
him.
Yeah. Yeah. I was, were saying I was sitting in the
room and I still left a little confused. Oh I don't know if Mark's alive or dead right
now. Were we playing ourselves? Were we the good guys? Yeah. Were we? Don't know. Were
you Mark or were you Calis crew the whole time? Next year he should just kill everyone.
Well he did. He asked him about him about kill me within the first 10 minutes
We asked him about it, and you know how long is he gonna do this He said he had this story that he is doing is a trilogy okay, so this set up the third rates
I know I will eat mushrooms next year. Yeah, it was not as fun sober you have to
Totally different experience
different experience you guys oh man Connor's special brain he's a good boy yes he is the best um is Eddie gonna be able to come yeah this is going to break
his heart oh yeah Jerry O'Connell's going after the big boss man. Love that. Dave
said I want to take full responsibility for Celtics game one loss. I wasn't fully locked
in at the backgall. I had a bad angle for the TV. Too much going on. It won't happen
again. Jerry said all due respect sir. You were directly in front of one of the largest
TVs I've ever seen in my life. You were on your phone and making vids with chicken fry we just
want it more Dave appreciate all you do appreciate all you do is nice that's
yeah cuz you can't be mad if you after that blatant lie there was a wall in
front of me in front I had to watch left TV at a brutal angle Wow Oh sir again
Hank and I had a perfect view of the largest TV ever made I could have told Stephen Shade is scooch over for you sometimes when teams and cities win championships. They lose that hunger is appreciate
You can't do anything with that when he hits you with the appreciate all you do
He's the fucking best.
I wanna get to the bottom of the mincy bags as well.
Yeah. Yeah.
He brought three.
And two made it to the plane.
But why'd he choose to bring two and leave one back
but the two he brought were his clothes?
He did everything right.
I saw him walk in so he didn't change there.
He didn't wanna pay to check it back. Oh, that's it. Yeah, he knew somebody would that's what it was
That's exactly what it was. I'm Dustin to say he kept what he needed. That's exactly what it was
But he's not that savvy. He's not that smart
Is he did he do it? Did he?
Was he still in a suit if he had two other huge bags with him like what was in that?
Big backpack couldn't you have just like I could you just I said that He had two other huge bags with him. Like what was in that backpack? He might not have ever had. It was a big backpack.
Couldn't he have just like,
couldn't he have just said that?
Yeah, hey guys, can you guys take this one?
Hey, can you guys take these bags for me?
Yeah, I don't think he's that cunning
to have figured it out.
Maybe he did, I don't know.
I don't know.
Something is right. Maybe he thought
you guys were changing into regular clothes
after the bet gala and like hanging out longer?
Yeah, don't bring that up.
No, okay. There was a big blow up in the car on the airport. Yeah. Ran and screaming at everybody regular clothes after the bet gala and like hanging out longer yeah don't bring that up no
There was a big blow up in the car on the airport
Yeah, red and screaming at everybody even though I was on your fucking side punk you weren't fast enough to be on my side I was letting everybody
Everybody everybody who was against me so I'm allowed to talk to Dan everything I say isn't a fucking joke. That's right
That's right, And fuck you,
Mark. You're always sucking on Dan's cock. Yeah. Go on. What's your fucking lap dog?
Nick, you didn't have my back quick enough. And the whole thing was just Brandon asked,
are we going to change before we get on the plane? And Dan was like, that's a stupid fucking question. It was a stupid question. I thought that they were on ice.
Of course we were going to change. I thought we could have got on a plane and save 30 minutes.
Of course we were going to change. But we got there, vindicated Brandon because our
bags were already packed on the plane. Our bags were on the plane. We had to get the
guy to take our bags off the plane and then change it took cost us 30 minutes
We could have been back by 30 instead of one. You could have been at 1230 sleeping on the couch
Why did you say notice sleeping at everybody's house? I don't like sleeping at people's houses
I don't want to have to take a dump at your house. I don't want to have to sleep at your house
I don't want to get an erection at your house. I don't want to do anything at your house
I don't want you hard in my house
I don't were you hard bands offered me to sleep over being nice. I won't do it at your house. Okay, you know what I get. I don't want you hard in my house. Right, I don't.
Were you hard in my house?
Dan's offered me to sleep over, being nice.
I won't do it.
Jerry offered me, you offered me.
I'm not sleeping in any of your house.
It's like disrespectful to all of us though.
I'm not sleeping in any of your house.
Did you sleep here last night?
Yes.
I slept on the little couch.
And you showered here.
But I have a bedroom in the basement.
So does Nick.
Literally no one would know that you were there.
I don't wanna poop in your house.
I don't wanna have an erection in your house. I don't wanna sleep in your house. I don't want to poop in your house, I don't want to have an erection in your house, I
don't want to sleep in your house, I don't want to do anything in your house.
You don't have to do those other things.
Yeah, but isn't, I mean, what if I want you to have an erection in my house?
What if that would mean a lot to me?
Well, no, I just, I can't, I don't want to sleep in anybody's house.
I want to sleep at my house or that couch.
I don't want to sleep with a crazy...
But that's, we bought the house we bought with that in mind.
My kids call it Brandon's room. Brandon might want to have my kids call it
Brandon's room. Yeah, we were doing the walkthrough and we're like, oh, this is the room where Brandon will have a boner. Yeah
I've never been to yeah any of your houses. Yeah, I
Don't I don't know. I just I can't I don't want to be the guy that sleeps over
That weird no, are you like scarred or something? But it's like-
Sleepovers?
I understand what you're saying because I don't like sleeping in other people's houses.
But if the option at two in the morning is sleep on a couch in an office versus sleeping
in a nice comfortable bed ten minutes from the office, I would take the bed.
When we get away from stuff, when I get away from here, I'm pretty fiercely independent.
I want to wake up the way I want to wake up. I want to make breakfast. I want to do everything
the way I want to do everything. You made breakfast here? Everything you could, you're
explaining you could do in my house because it's in the basement and no one would know
you're there and you could literally, I could set you up and be like, Hey, I'll just see
you at the office. I won't even see, like I won't even see you in my house. You could
just be at the office the next time I see you. All right. Well, I don't know. And it was 1 30. It was one. It was late. Did you have a good night's sleep here?
No, it was awful. My body's wrecked right now. I was one to leave all I want to do is leave I
Like how you have no problem getting hard in the office
Yeah, it's a problem. Did you leave the league in the office?
When I when I when I nap you go right to your rim sleep.
Yeah, that thing's popping right up.
Whoa, good for you.
It's popping right up.
It's a motherfucking Bet Galaman.
Yeah, it is, yeah.
And we were telling about y'all not letting me talk last night.
Talk about the blow up in the car
on the way to the airport.
Brandon, actually.
There's Eddie at O.
I don't know.
Oh, no.
Watch.

You puzzle with us.
Yeah, the crossword?
Yeah, you like it.
It's fun, yeah.
I've been doing the mini ones to get better.
That's amazing, man.
Who's the best?
Yeah.
Is Nick the best?
Is Kyle the best at the crossword? Nick's really good. Surprisingly, White Sox Dave's pretty good. Yeah. Kyle's good too. Kyle's
amazing. Yeah, he's really good. But you guys are the top two for sure. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, No I die I'm a cheater I
Cheated I cheat often on the crosswords. Yeah when we do them as a team and we celebrate finishing them
No, we didn't I cheat it no
Really yeah Well, how like but we were doing today before I'll look at my phone Really? Yeah.
Well, how like, what were you doing the day before? I'll look at my phone.
I'll type the clues in my phone, yield an answer.
You're fucking around.
Did you know this?
No, I found out yesterday.
Keep passing Kleenex branded.
This is, this is, this is, oh.
Yeah.
What your brain is like. No, no. It's Google. It's not branded. This is so. Yeah. What your brain is like.
No.
It's Google.
It's not.
Your brain is you.
No.
There's this.
He got caught yesterday.
His phone was synced up to the computer
that we were doing it on.
Look at the top four.
No.
He might not have the brain we thought he had.
This is like Billy Mitchell.
Yeah.
This is bad. It's really this is bad This is really bad
I have to say Eddie, I appreciate your reaction
because it's very genuine and it's
I can see the hurt
These are hard
You make comments when Kyle gets them
You're like, you're amazing man
Yeah, it's honestly stunning
Yeah, and that was all
This going on for years you said?
Yeah stunning yeah and that was all this going on for years you said yeah we
shouldn't have done this live this is really fucked up how do you feel
betrayed I don't know the guy yeah Eddie he's retired from crosswords yeah he's Oh my God. Yeah, dude. How do you feel?
Betrayed, I don't know the guy.
Yeah.
Eddie, he's retired from crosswords.
Yeah, he's retired from intellect.
Accident, intellect, yeah.
You'll never do another crossword with Kyle again.
It's harder for you guys, gonna be worse for you guys.
I don't like to hear that either.
I offered for him to go into the program
where he has to do one with pen and paper and then afterwards
He has to agree to random drug tests where we look at his phone, and he doesn't want to do it
That's unfair to fairness
Because I'll probably do I'll probably do really well. I'm just gonna be honest
Probably finish it quickly right and then it's like then it's like always
He's cleared no I cheated no. It's not you're cleared. It's just that
Wow now I'm done
I'm stunned done forever. It was awesome to see yeah, cuz they're so I've you ever done with him
I've stood around in the room. I'm so bad at them that I just that's what I'm saying
It's like he's seeing like his brain just moves at a different level.
Google.
Google.
You continue to credit his brain and the brain is not...
But his brain is his attribute.
That's his thing.
Right.
Right.
It's Google though.
That's what you thought.
It's Google.
I mean, I guess I'm like, it's all Google.
I don't know.
I'm really cerebral about how I cheat.
I've never been caught in the act just after the fact I think we're anyone who even saw you looking at your phone though
Wouldn't even think that you were cheating
That's the reputation build up. Yeah, so what about like state capitals and NBA players hometown?
Doesn't matter. I'm done with those
No, I can't be done with those you can't be done with those
with those no you can't be done with those you can't be done with those stevedore was real most have been real you were in the room for stevedore we've
done hundreds and hundreds you probably done like a thousand crosswords Steve
door I've cheated on only dozens only about 20 maybe we're net no more than 20 it might be 50
I'm stunned it's
Yeah, sorry to have to do that to it where does this go now? I don't know I don't have a fucking clue
He'll be back who's who's in charge if I you high. You're such a person. It's high was the aisle was the
Leader I'm the guy of the you're the guy everyone looks he's the one that got everybody into him
So if there was another cheater
You would go to Kyle be like what do we do Kyle, but now you're the one cheating. There's there's no leader
There's no yeah, there's no one to figure out the path forward. I don't know fuck
So the whole operation falls apart
I just it was it was crazy because I just wanted to be like Kyle and I spent many a sleepless night
Trying to solve yeah, never meet your heroes right I should never met Kyle. I'm not kidding
I've been doing the minis to try to get better. Yes, I've been I've been luggage, but
Brendan how you gonna tell your kids about this I?
Think Tommy knew yeah, he's had some thoughts about Kyle
The I don't see Eddie
Well, I'm
Obsessing news, but I'm also upset that he's not gonna be a part of them. Yeah, that's where we got a fit
We got a fix. Well he has to keep doing may I say something? Yeah
Yeah, would joke would you guys be fine if he just kept doing exactly what he's been doing the whole time?
Yeah, every now and then he cheated every now and then he saves y'all. That's true
Why not go back?
That just do do what you've been doing don't cheat every time but treat 20 50, but then those triumphs
But everybody was happy right you guys
You guys weren't in the room for that's my defense. I've only caused joy. Yeah, right
Alright, so what if the deal is?
Kyle can't get caught cheating again
So he can cheat he just can't get caught cheating, but now every time he looks at his everybody's gonna
Yeah, I can't you gonna get smarter. You know and then the next time we can't ever play the little
Jingle when you solve it without a check
It's gonna feel like nothing nothing
Do you remember what I said to the group when we solve stevedore?
Stevedore was real man. I
My heart I said boys. Let's take a moment of silence. We can remember this moment forever
Yeah, we that was like an hour one. Yeah for an hour I
Can't you I can't allow you to stop?
But what do we do?
Can't bring your phone in the room. How'd you figure out stevedore? We guessed letters
We just thought it was Steve door. I thought it was Steve door a guy should we?
Should we just do it now?
Phones down?
Come on, Kyle.
All of us?
Yeah, let's do one just to see how it feels.
No.
Why?
Because I'll probably do really well.
I know, so that's good.
No, I need some punishment.
Your punishment is just random phone checks.
No, I can't.
It's over. We'll think of a I can't. It's over. We'll
think of a we'll think of it can't be over. It cannot be
over. Oh, playing halo now. I think you wanted to get caught.
I do too because I think he wanted he he was having fun
playing halo. Do you think there'll be a period where you
feel remorse or you're just gonna be mad? No, I'm pissed
that I got caught. It's but's but there will be no follow-up
Period of remorse after this after you're done being I mean I am like devastated
Who caught you mook
It was an impressive catch it was like a mil I had no I even when you pulled it up
I didn't know what I was looking at
suit products Milk I had no I even when you pulled it up. I didn't know what I was looking at suit product I
Didn't get any of those they said velvet black velvet they said lamp black
Yeah, what can I say there there has to be a path to retribution. We just don't know it yet, correct
You can't quit. I think he just needs a little time
Little time a little space from the crossword game, and he'll he'll realize what he was in it for in the in the first place
I'm just rambling. I mean if he hadn't done it you guys would have just failed at crossword all the time
You wouldn't if he wouldn't enjoy it. We would have never started failed at crossword all the time. You wouldn't have... If he wouldn't enjoy it.
We would have never started crosswording.
Yeah.
We've failed so many times.
This is a rare instance when I am not having fun and we've been stuck.
So then you did it for fun.
Okay.
And I'm like, let's wrap this up so we can all be happy and go on to the next one.
Yeah, so you guys just, you get stripped of your professional credentials, you're amateurs again. Right. You can go on to the next one. Yes, you guys just you get stripped of your professional
Credentials your amateurs again
Right you can't be in the world championships right, but you can do rec league right
No, I'm done. Okay forever. I don't hear you understand
Great you could just do it and never look at your phone. Did he quit biking forever after he got caught no I think he's thanks around
Cheryl Crowe yeah, then they got divorced yeah, I think Lance took a similar route, and he like just blame Floyd land this blame
So losses that make the winds feel better
Yeah, well such a such a good quote and that's
that make the winds feel better. Yeah, well said.
Such a good quote.
Well said, Eddie.
You're wise beyond your ears when it comes to puzzling.
You fit in seamlessly.
I brought up the way you looked at Kyle,
the way you nodded when he got one,
the wows under your breath.
It was impressive. Steve Doerr.
Well, you can't harp on that enough.
That was real. St enough that was real steve adore was real
Person employed or a contractor engaged at a dock to load and unload cargo from ships. That's right steve adore
You just think no matter how good you still can do without cheating your reputation will forever be tarnished?
Yeah, just be like, in my...
Who cares though? It's like, like I said, it's like this...
I won't be able to enjoy it.
No one says Barry Bonds wasn't like the best hitter of all time.
Right. I won't be able to feel any joy in getting an answer right.
Cause everyone's gonna...
What was Moog's reaction?
He was shocked. I don't, I actually don't blame him. I am pissed at him. But it was an impressive catch.
I think it needed to be done.
When God closes a steve door, he opens a window.
There it is.
You know?
Man, Grammys always say that.
What's up, Eddie?
What else is going on?
Nothing.
That's just.
Doctor's appointment? Yeah. By doctor. Oh, you're What else is going on? Nothing. That's just...
Doctor's appointment?
Yeah.
By doctor.
Oh, you're going to get Lasik?
I've had Lasik.
Oh.
When you get Lasik, you've got to get an eye check up once a year to report back to make
sure everything's still clicking.
You seem down, man.
You're still processing.
I didn't expect that.
Yeah.
Yeah, I know, because I told you, I texted you, I said, don't look at your phone, don't
look at Twitter. And I thought, like I said, don't look at your phone, don't look at Twitter.
And I thought, like I said, we talked about serial killers
on this show for like an hour yesterday.
Got dark.
We got a little dark.
Who cares?
That's fine.
Oh, you thought you were coming in being in trouble?
Yeah.
It's getting dark now.
And it was way worse.
This is way worse.
Way worse.
This episode's way darker than yesterday.
This is our serious episode.
What was the book you read, Kyle night a changed a mind I'm serious I David read an entire
book last night a lot of it by who David Bayer the bear what was the big takeaway
how does he say you change your mind I have to go to rehab For like three years
Re-engineer your reality that sounds pretty cool
So that's what you're doing you're changing your mind
Did you actually read it or just use spark notes? I read a lot of it a lot of the beginning
Majority of the very very beginning the preamble
Just quit with me, so what happened what happened today Nick?
What what happens today you guys doing man? I'm I'm gonna miss this. It was the best.
Right, that's right.
Get the text, let's run across.
It's like, yep, run in there. Kyle on keys.
Kyle on keys, that's what we always said.
Best feeling in the world.
Dean, you get on keys.
And not believe, like a cop.
Who missed that?
Who missed that?
It was after a day at Gabin,
you just go in there and you just lock it.
Yes, it's such, it's so freeing and therapeutic
Yes, it's
Man fuck mook
What the fuck really fucked this up
Cody and Luke both told me minutes after it happened
It's spread like wildfire in the office.
It's a big, this is a big country. Such a loser.
That's such a loser move.
Did you ever think you'd get caught?
No, not a chance.
But I did it for the well-being of everyone.
You did it for happiness.
I was like, let's wrap this up.
That's what I'm saying.
Like, the moments are still real.
We'll all celebrate getting the win, and we'll move on.
So like a monopoly, if you wanted the game to end,
what would you do as a kid?
I never played Monopoly.
You're no fucking idiot.
No, you're not.
He wants to re-bring this dumb ass. you know how to prevent this from happening again potentially what do you
mean well I think it would have to be that your Google account was logged in
on your computer that's an except that was also why I was upset yeah I don't
like the idea that anyone can see my Google search history hmm I think you
just want to put an Xbox in that room and just play Halo from now on. Yeah, I do want to play Halo.
Oh, he shot up in there. I thought he like on the big
school. Oh, his phone was connected during during a game,
right? You thought you're gonna do this forever. Oh, yeah.
Sammy so so I worked bad. I had ambitious plans to cheat
forever. I think y'all can still. Shit. I had ambitious plans to cheat forever.
I think y'all can still go back to that.
I think you can still do it.
I think you can still do it.
Nick's going to take some convincing, but...
I know I've only done maybe two crossers with you guys, but as someone who's done it at
least once, I can say I forgive you.
What if the whole room decides, hey, let's cheat on this one?
Yeah.
We're stuck, we're not having fun anymore.
Yeah, one lifeline.
Go ahead.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And you can make a joke of it like, oh, we need one lifeline, Kyle.
It can be funny.
Yeah.
I have to, right?
Yeah, you have to.
This is more than just crosswords.
This is friendship.
Yeah, I think Eddie would be cool with that, right?
I don't feel like Eddie's into it.
I don't want to lose him, but I don't. I mean, you said it. He wants to be right. You don't want to lose him, but I don't know.
I mean, you said it.
You don't want to win every single one.
No.
But you can declare Lifeline.
It's OK to lose a bunch, because then when you win, it's
such a try.
You're not getting this one on board with that either.
Would you be OK with the Lifeline every now and then,
just being like, Kyle, Lifeline? That's not solving the puzzle
Yeah, I think I think we wipe the history books yeah, sir fresh
What if we set a timer solved a puzzle?
Yeah, start. Oh today will be your first
Puzzle you'll ever saw we've we have zero we could do it right now
Yeah, that's our friend right now right now. Oh one up right now the band-aid off right now
Here we go Kyle sign it
Right now Kyle, this is the first puzzle of your life. We'll do it as a team.
It's gonna feel great.
Don't even think about looking at your phone.
If you give up everything intellectual,
what are you going to talk about?
Halo?
I don't...
Same sludge I always talk about.
But just without, like, the...
Without, like, the facts, like like oh, look what I know.
It's not that bad.
You get through.
Still on the yak.
Yeah, not knowing shit is kind of a superpower
where you're just like, I don't know.
You just paraphrase a bunch of TikToks you saw.
Yeah, we go.
Without really knowing.
Yeah, I mean, my intelligence has basically been boiled down to like, I think I saw a tweet about that.
Yeah.
We're all, we just know headlines.
Yeah.
You guys are treating me like a baby.
No we're not.
Treat me like a man. You should be, like what if, imagine if White Sox Dave got caught doing this.
Well that would be a dead story.
Yeah, it's true.
Yeah, it's pretty easy imagine
But he doesn't love it like you love it you want to call you a cheating piece of shit is that what you want
No, you don't want that either. Yeah, it's a big TG. Can you get one or no?
He wouldn't be surrendering like you one of them definitely has Nick. Do you have an account? I do come login
He's I don't know about login, but I hear searches try to get it his was a list his would elicit anger
Yeah, cuz he would be like who cares okay, so what's something you hate Kyle?
How can we punish you unnecessary proximity?
What about you solve a puzzle very close like a will cram like a subway car I would hate that yeah
What about a what about a? like a, we'll cram like a subway car. I would hate that. Yeah, what about a, what about a, like a sheep?
Oh, would you eat a sheep?
Yeah, a warm sheep.
Don't make me eat a sheep.
Would you hate it?
We reserve that for the worst of all.
Tell her to eat a sheep.
Yeah, you just need to be punished.
Do you want us to spank you?
We could spank you.
What about those parents that like,
openly shame their kids?
We put you on the main street with a sign
saying what you did wrong and like,
honk if you're ashamed of me.
Yeah, like a fantasy football person.
Or we shoot your laptop with an AR something.
I should be crucified.
What about a dunce cap?
You want us to crucify you?
Yeah, I mean you thought I nailed two across.
I should be nailed two across I Should be nailed to a cross
All right, we'll crucify you wait so TG we don't have a login can somebody come login
I'm on three percent really don't come over here and login. He doesn't want to do it. I know
Here's what you want. We will we'll do a vlog will crucify you and then your sins are wiped away
That's fair
Well, I don't like with nails
Well, what did you want to do you want to tape you up there? I don't know I mean do you want us to?
What did you want to do you want to tape you up there? I don't know I mean do you want us to?
How I guess rope how they how they get st. Peter was he upside down someone was rope rope upside down
Burn at the stake throw you in a lion
Yeah, maybe the belly of a whale tie you up and throw you in the lake. Who's the guy that wanted more weight?
Who was that? You want a big stone stone oh cut your hair stones on your chest you want leprosy what about you
can't you have to gain 20 pounds and then you can do crosswords you get
pretty gross you gotta get a schlub yeah I'm a schlub. I'll get gross. Okay. Yeah All right, if you got gross, I'll get really would be real I'll get chubby and bread
I don't know his gross is still far and away. He'd look great
Put on muscle. Yeah, okay get chubby and red
I like the idea though Nick said you just haven't done one yet
You literally your career starts this after start over and it's it's you're and red. I like the idea though, Nick said you just haven't done one yet. You literally, your career starts this afternoon.
Start over.
And it's, you're at one.
I think I should be suspended at least.
You're in charge.
I already declared retirement.
Yeah, you gotta unretire.
You can unretire.
I'm not gonna unretire.
Brett Harv does it all the time.
I'm gonna unretire.
Yeah, unretire.
It will be the fastest unretirement of all time.
Fucking do it on retire
Do we have mincey's bag
No, yet his second one
Were you were you out of the route when you were out we figured it out
He didn't want to pay for a check back
And we think he game the system and got both his
Cuz he had his back with so he was smuggling. Yeah, there's something that we brought back. He smuggled.
He smuggled.
I don't understand Stephen Chase prep sheet.
Do people racing on roads upset you?
What does that mean?
Like people racing on roads.
Like if you drag race on a regularly working road.
And he said, why aren't these outlawed everywhere?
I'm pretty sure they are outlawed everywhere.
They absolutely are.
I used to do it when I was in high school. We had a strip that
we did it. Um, it's absolutely illegal everywhere. Yeah.
And yeah, it would does piss me off. Bother me. Yeah.
How was Che yesterday? Uh, it was just kind of, it was, it was just Che.
It was just there. You think the next? oh, I do have one chase story. That's really really bad
Really really bad probably them
It changes oh
I don't know I want to say it Clemmer suit was so funny
He had a quote on the red carpet where he was like I was standing within 50 feet of
Clemmer and Dana, and I was like this is the first time we've ever been in the same room together.
It was really crazy. They worked in the same office for...
Chase said that? It was like he was like crazy story. I was out today, and I bumped into...
Who'd he bump into? Clemmer and Dana? Clemmer and Dana. He's like isn't that crazy? I was like no, they're here as well. Uh-huh.
What does he mean? I don't know. Nobody knew.
The Chase story, it bothers me even saying it.
So it was a DraftKings event.
There's a bunch of DraftKings employees there.
And I think someone maybe from the DraftKings trading team went up to Che and said that
out of everyone here at Barstool, Che is by far and away the sharpest better we have.
And it devastated me.
I was like, he told me this afterwards,
I was like, don't say that to Che,
he's like, I already did.
And I was like, oh no.
And I looked over and Che gave like a smile.
Oh my God.
And my heart broke.
He's a winner.
It's brutal.
Basically confirmed all the value that he's collecting without
winning a bet is great. Oh, he's profitable. Not profitable, just value. He's sharp. He
finds good value. He's brutal. All he does is win. Brutal. I guess good for him. But
not because you know this is bad. You see him trying to get out of technicality of the Warriors thing where he was like oh well you technically said it was over
After four so I was right. He said the Rockets were going to win the Western Conference Western Conference
Yeah, they lost in the first round. They lost in the first round and
I told and now he's trying to hang me on a technicality that after game four I said it's over which technically I was right
Took a few more games, but I was right it was over yeah and yeah he just finds a way to win at all times do you think the Knicks can or
will win this series no no like 20% the how many 3s did the Celtics...
45 miss.
15 of 60.
Does Che think they can win?
I don't...
He's a Knicks fan.
Yeah, no he certainly...
Like memes is a Knicks fan, he's like, I don't think we can win but it definitely gave me
a little more hope.
But memes isn't Che.
Che definitely thinks the Knicks can win.
So it was that lopsided, that though they're up one. Oh, it's
I mean they missed 45 three-pointers. They're not gonna still
The game went to overtime right like Hank put it perfectly is like if we made three more three-pointers who'd have won easily
They missed 42 threes they would
They wouldn't win easily
Instead they missed 45 45 3-4 is insane
All right, I got nothing else I hope I hope you can still cross he's gonna work through it
Yeah, what I think whatever is worst for me. Yeah, we have to we have to combine. Yeah. Yeah, we'll figure it out I'm up with your own punishment. Yeah, how would you punish yourself?
Yeah, yeah, we'll figure it out. Come up with your own punishment. Yeah, how would you punish yourself?
I think I should be I should be like seriously shamed instead of in a joking manner Okay, you should be judge jury and executioner on this
But we love you
right as I'm saying that shouldn't
Affect
Like how you treat me for this wrongdoing. I think crossword needs you. I'll just say it. Yeah. The game of crossword needs
Kyle Reed. Even if Kyle toes the line a little bit. I think the office
camaraderie needs you.
I agree. So that's that's the worst part. What if I what if I was just like,
Hey, Kyle, you have to do it. Then he's not that that takes away the joy of it
Enforce it I guess yeah, I might have to enforce it try that okay. You have to do a crossword today with the boys fuck
You have to it's part of your job now all right, okay fine
We're about to crucify we. We're gonna dock your pay.
Yeah, it was either crucifixion or just keep doing that.
Damn.
Okay, we're good.
We're settled.
All right.
And you're not gonna cheat.
Oh, God.
Kyle.
Can we set a time limit?
You just put your phone away. To you? I have to put my phone away? You gotta put your phone away until you re-earn the trust of the group.
These are all orders.
Okay. Okay. Because it's a timeline that gets to you, is that right?
Yeah, Eddie's right. Just do a time limit. Oh yeah, you don't like when they drag on. If it goes two hours, you're like fuck it.
I want to find out. So yeah. yeah at 40 lose no matter what I mean
I like when they drag on if we're having a good time
Okay, so why don't we have like a Kyle fun gauge behind you on the wall?
Yeah, it's a time once you announce to the room you have the itch to cheat and then you guys I will be out
Yeah, yeah, you like people can just like yeah
Yeah, like I'm thinking of drinking again. Yeah, right reports you there. We go. Yeah. Yeah, that's good
