Starting point is 00:01:58 the person that I had spent a lovely weekend at Augusta with might have recalled me as a potential Did he utter your name? I don't believe so. But... Brandon? He's off. He's awfully quite a lot. Thanks for rushing in here.
Starting point is 00:02:17 T.J. You want to run it from the top? Yeah, let's go. Yeah. Cool with that. What were you talking about? We can talk about that during the show. Joey, hey man, how are you? Good. How are you? Great. Thanks. Joey. I'd do something wrong? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:02:31 No, Joey. That was odd. That master's trip was incredible and awesome. It was, yeah. But I also gave you free tickets to the Masters. I'm rather grateful. So I don't know if I owe you. I don't think it was an owed.
Starting point is 00:02:46 I just thought it wanted to come up. I don't know if I owe you the end of year recognition that you seem to because you. He did a lot of heavy lifting on the program. You did like a weak residence. I've been here a lot. I just feel like. Oh, you've been great. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:58 You've been great. There was a lot of ride-ins. I feel like, you know. But you're not, Chef Donnie's just stupid as fuck. Well, I don't understand what's been happening. So that's the thing is I didn't really know what's been happening. So I went back and I reviewed some tape and immediately watched him get outed for booty calling a girl over and over.
Starting point is 00:03:15 And I was like, that is good. His own neighbor. That's what we're looking for. Look, I'm not saying that I beat that. I'm just saying I should have been on the list. Yeah. You're too flawless. We're looking more for a character.
Starting point is 00:03:26 That is. Someone with lots of flaws. Did we do your letter to your college baseball coach this year? That was embarrassing. It was. I did put that. I made a graphic for the people's yak guest of the year, and I had a UCSD Triton's jersey on for that. And the pride of Saratoga Little League, which I think was the previous year.
Starting point is 00:03:44 Are you really trying to make your shoulders look big there, huh? Those are my shoulders. No. The neck right there? Yeah, that's, it's all me. You were hunched. Natty. Well, I was leaning on a table.
Starting point is 00:03:55 Oh. But, you know. As you do. roster photo? No, no, no, that jersey's photoshopped on. I didn't make the team. I didn't make the team as Yack listeners will well know. I sent a salty letter to my college coach and we read it on the program. So that's the first time I wore a UCSD baseball jersey right there. Big Cat will be in. He's pickums running late. Where's Mark Titus? Finishing up his launch area is right there. He's coming. We tried to sneak in the lunch between mostly and Yack. So we got it. no yeah i eat a little quicker my my food was in nugget form yeah makes for a quicker lunch and what was his in lettuce form his was in lettuce form yeah great teammate brandon no i were you guys eating at the same table and he just hurried through and left was brandon's like hey
Starting point is 00:04:44 i know we're starting the yak early but like we got to eat lunch so like let's let's let's let's let's just both agree we'll eat lunch and then we'll go in together a lunch that way it doesn't look bad when one of us comes in later and the other and i was like yeah great plan that's great But then I stood up and said, are you ready to go? And you said, yeah. No, I didn't. I was eating my salad. I went like that.
Starting point is 00:05:03 I thought you said, yes. I don't listen to you. I'm sorry. That's my fault. I probably should listen. I said, are you ready to go? And you definitely said, yes, I am, Brandon. I'm ready to go right now.
Starting point is 00:05:13 Lead the way, sir. I don't know. You kind of walked in here pretty guilty. No, I got a bad attitude. Yeah, you had a real bad attitude walking in. I walk in here. Now it's all coming to light. You're guilty as fuck from your lunch sabotage.
Starting point is 00:05:26 I walk in here guilty every day. And Mark, I definitely said. From what? You're guilty? You think you're guilty of something every day? Every single day. You feel guilty or you're guilty of something? Dude, I'll forget somebody's name here.
Starting point is 00:05:40 I'll forget. No, no, no. You've never learned their name. I'll never learn their name. I get made to feel guilty here all the time. I'll walk outside. Somebody say good morning. I'll be like, hey.
Starting point is 00:05:49 And then I'll be like, why didn't you say good morning back? I don't know. I just said, hey. We have a secret Santa within the whole office today. Do you know the person you have? 100%. I'm a little pissed at him. Is it Mark?
Starting point is 00:05:59 No, it's Ryan. Oh. Oh, wait a secret. Oh, come on. Guilty. I see, there we go. Guilty. Insane.
Starting point is 00:06:07 But my guy might not even be here because he got hurt. Brushing his teeth. Prushing his teeth. He threw his back out. Really? He coughed while brushing his teeth. Got his back blown out while brushing it. It'll come for all of us.
Starting point is 00:06:18 Damn, crest back shots. Oh, yeah. Do you know Colgate made lasagna? No, you can't do this two days in a row. Really? Yeah. I don't let that slide. You can double that up.
Starting point is 00:06:29 They didn't give a fuck yesterday. Right. Well, why would we give a fuck? Yeah, no one gets that love. And guess what? Lausanne. They just, they deny it ever happened. Really?
Starting point is 00:06:38 Yeah. They're trying to fill up Morrison. They want the end to end. They want to, like, stain your teeth and then also clean it off. So they didn't just do this. That's old. Okay. Is that the only food they ever tried?
Starting point is 00:06:50 I kind of want to get a box of it. Were you around, Brandon, for the advent of frozen food? I think I was very close to the start of it When did it start? I'm pretty sure TV dinners started in the 70s But like by 83, 84, when I'm getting cognizant of the world They were pretty big in our house When did microwaves come out?
Starting point is 00:07:08 That's when... Microwaves came out, I think, in the... I don't know when they got big in every house. Like, big in every house was probably the 80s. Did you have a microwave in your home growing up? No, no, because the aluminum siding on the mobile home. You can't have it. But yeah, it was...
Starting point is 00:07:25 I got a microwave when I was 12. Wait, you got a personal microwave? No, well, you got a microwave in my house when I was 12, yeah. What was the first thing you put in there? A gerbil. Popcorn, probably. I can't believe we navigated away from Colgate lasagna. Yeah, Colgate made lasagna.
Starting point is 00:07:41 Again, when did Brandon have a microwave lasagna? That's crazy. Thank you. You ever made that? Like, that, I want to know. Yeah, what was that meeting like? I wish I could imagine, imagine trying to get another job. Yeah, I'm at Colgate lasagna.
Starting point is 00:07:54 I don't know if you know this. I'm actually a man behind. Part of one of the biggest failures of all time. Was it an abject failure? Yes. Yeah, because it's Colgate. The image of squeezing the toothpaste tube and lasagna going on the toothbrush was pretty appetizing. That'd be awesome.
Starting point is 00:08:12 A tube of lasagna. We're in the car. Lazzania is a condiment. You just have some chips. Put lasagna on your hot dog, dude. He's got to roll it up to squeeze one. He's meeting with Starbucks. He's like, what about a car?
Starting point is 00:08:32 Now we're cooking. Now I can put it to rest. That was all I need to like one minute. The rare run back that worked. Yeah. It didn't. That's like a good like O'Connor thing too, though. Like that's going to capture Chris's imagination.
Starting point is 00:08:47 Probably the entire weekend. I think you're going to be thinking about that. Colgate lasagna. Yeah. I also want to know, did they try anything else? I think they had other frozen dishes. I don't think lasagna is the first. That should be like a documentary.
Starting point is 00:08:59 Oh, yeah, the truth behind Colgate's beef lasagna. Museum of Failures. Hey, what else is that? They're theorizing whether this existed or not, actually. They deny it. They're saying this is a reconstruction of what they think the packaging would look like. It's like a woolly mammoth. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:09:17 The product line was Colgate Kitchen and had two entrees, one from dry chicken, and the other from crab. Dried shrieve. Crabb. This is just an artistic. Colgate Crablozazes. They made this. This website made this.
Starting point is 00:09:30 This is based on the fossils they found. They found it in solidified amber. Based on scientific research. You know it would be sad. What if it ruled? What if it was like the best lasagna ever? See, look at what we're doing right now. I know.
Starting point is 00:09:42 It's good. It does feel like it was like the president of Colgate's kid. They like gave him a job. He's like, I want to do something. All right. How old was the kid when he got the job? Well, I just imagine he had that voice well into his fifth. Dad, I want to make a lezine.
Starting point is 00:10:03 A CPG Nepo, baby. It's a hilarious concept. It's Procter & Gables, boy. All right. Any other products? No, that's about it for me right now. We can do products. So there's no actual.
Starting point is 00:10:20 Eminence or footage or pictures of the real Colgate lasagna? That would be an interesting thing to try to do is like find if it was true. Is it possible that it didn't exist and we're... Not no. Okay. No. Definitely not. Does it seem possible though. Yeah, there's no evidence.
Starting point is 00:10:34 Somebody's got to have it. There is no evidence. Did you make this up in like 2019? No. People were saying it was a fake product made up by the Museum of Failures that went viral. Okay. Oh. Propaganda.
Starting point is 00:10:44 All right. Nearly the entire internet. That's on interesting as fuck. You guys all believe. believed it, too. Hey, KB, are you aware of this... A riff went too long for you. Yeah, right, see.
Starting point is 00:10:56 Are you aware of this whole map thing with the island Jeff? No. I didn't understand any of that. The island... I don't understand it either. Matt thing with the island... I don't know how I found this.
Starting point is 00:11:08 What did you say? TJ, Google Jeff Island. Yeah. Just see what pop up. Yeah, it's Jeff. Like, you got to, come on, man. I don't know. I just realized as I said that,
Starting point is 00:11:20 No, no, it's not Jeffrey Epstein. Fuck. I just realized I said this, I was like, it was maybe late night after taking like a sleeping pill. And all right. Do you make the aisle of Jeff? I'm going to just, you know what? Hey, hey, guys, I'm out of this conversation. Can't do that.
Starting point is 00:11:35 You can't say. No, you got to at least. Is there a mysterious aisle? You got to. They finally named the aisle of man. Yeah, man is now Jeff. Yeah, they named the aisle of man. Just try to remember any other words associated with private island.
Starting point is 00:11:48 Mr. Beast, is that way you talking about? Wait, Mr. B. Stone's Jeff? Why would Mr. Beast name an island, Jeff, giving everything we know? That is something Mr. Beast would do. That's a little Epstein coated. Yeah, it's coming for him. Mr. Beast has a Jeff? Was there, what's the scandal?
Starting point is 00:12:05 Yeah, what's the... Jeffrey Epstein kind of is living a Mr. Beast video. We got every major politician on one jet, and you'll never believe what happened. That thumbnail would be awesome. Fuck Fuck I know you said you're out But we're not
Starting point is 00:12:25 Now we're paralyzed We're all We're all very much in Are you doing something else? Do you remember it being controversial Funny Why do you block us through the whole thing It was like an old
Starting point is 00:12:36 There's like an old map That has a weird island off of like Portugal And it's labeled Jeff on the map I don't know I'm really embarrassed right now But the island's gone now How did you stumble It's so funny if they found
Starting point is 00:12:49 Atlantis and it was the actual city's name was Jeff. Oh, yeah, man, it's not Atlantis. So, thanks for coming. I'm Jeff. It's not Atlantis. That's way better. We should have thought of that. Jeff. Where was Atlantis supposed to be?
Starting point is 00:13:03 Don't they have it like triangulated? No, I'm staying at it. Wait, is that based on a true story? I thought underwater city. There's a few of those, right? I think Graham Hancock said it was like in the Caribbean somewhere. Yeah. Yeah?
Starting point is 00:13:17 He do be saying. Graham Hancock said it. It's not a really reliable source. It's just under Atlanta. It's that island right there. Where? What? Right off of Europe.
Starting point is 00:13:30 What is that? That thing? That's talking about Jeff. No, no, no, no. Down, down, down, down, down. That's the whole of America. I mean, all of the earth. That's the United Kingdom.
Starting point is 00:13:40 That's where they think Atlanta's is. Oh, that. You think that's Jeff? That's Jeff. A little big to be Jeff. Confused the UK with Jeff? No, no. They got the UK.
Starting point is 00:13:49 Oh, you were thinking... Joffrey. Yeah, he was thinking of United Kingdom. Oh, nice one, nice one. Wait, what's... Yeah, yeah. No, no, no, no. My God.
Starting point is 00:13:57 That's coward. He didn't even commit to the phone. He's already off of it. Drop a bomb like that. He just... I wasn't sure he was looking it up or just disassociating. I'm going to go through my text now. Do you think it was a dream that he had?
Starting point is 00:14:14 Is that what we think happened? That's something his brain would be able to do. Nothing more. But he didn't. Why was it so aimed at you, KB? He just walked in and he had something for you. He was like, oh, to KB. Yeah, Jeff.
Starting point is 00:14:25 He had the remnants of something. He didn't even really, yeah. It was just like, you know of Jeff Island? And he was hoping you'd be like, oh, yeah. Go on and on. When you said, no, he's like, fuck, that's all yet. It's a map issue. It's on the heels of a Jeff segment on mostly sports.
Starting point is 00:14:40 Yeah, we had a Jeff, Jeff segment. I'm really, I'm really in it deep because I'm realizing that just Googling Jeff Island is not. It's always not good. Yeah is a problem I'm going to figure this out Do the minus Epstein thing You got to do the You got to do the
Starting point is 00:14:56 That's even more suspicious He's just He's Googling How do I get to Jeff's Island Flights to Jeff's island Way more suspicious Yeah Minus child porn
Starting point is 00:15:08 Why did you call that out So specifically Okay Hey, Joey, hey Chris. You can minus on Google. Oh, I got it. Minus. Wow.
Starting point is 00:15:24 It's not, Jeff. It's James. Oh, that's also the same thing. Yeah, let's look up James up. Shit. Eight years late to his story. What's going on? It's a little island.
Starting point is 00:15:43 I'm not realizing it's just a meme. It says 99% of Americans can't name this. country, it's just a random fake country off the coast of Spain, and everyone just said, that's James. Why did everyone say it? Worst 10 minutes. So the fake internet's gotten us twice already. Already. What was the first one?
Starting point is 00:15:59 The Colgate lasagna was. So I actually was kind of on the same topic. We're all done faking on it. All right. All right. Yeah, stuff we fell for. James. The island's James.
Starting point is 00:16:08 Not the other island, James. But it's also. And not Jeff. Not Jeff. Isn't it the Azores? Isn't it just the? I think so. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:18 James. That's really nice. James. Everyone's just like, yeah, that's James. Who is St. James? His reputations. Well, no, but they not great. Why little, though, was he?
Starting point is 00:16:27 Well, is there two of them? No, we man. Yeah, it's probably a bigger thing. Got to put the vibe out there. Okay. Is it the island or the man? I don't know. St. James has to be pissed.
Starting point is 00:16:37 Yeah, he's. His whole life be canonized. Depends on what he's the saint of. Yeah. The James, the St. Had to feel here. Yeah. It's really on the,
Starting point is 00:16:45 fighting in plain sight. The saint of fucking little boys. I try to tell you guys. The Catholic Church would have to say. Probably a lot of those, actually, to be honest. That might be redundant. Most of them. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:17:03 It's always the third miracle. It fits. Oh. Yeah. Oh, no. Oh, fuck That was a killer joke Are we gonna
Starting point is 00:17:24 Yeah, are we losing sponsors I actually don't know what the boundaries Of their show There aren't any That would have been close Some sort of line Censor just went off Some sort of shit
Starting point is 00:17:42 So what's up boys Joey how is you got snubbed I did I did I couldn't believe that I didn't make the list the yak guest of the year yeah I mean we had some right-ins we had some support but I thought you know amongst the many people
Starting point is 00:17:58 here maybe someone would have remembered I fought for you off air Joey oh yeah off air I don't know that he I fought as hard as I possibly could I got shouted down uh-huh now can I can I just in defense of us the yak guest of the year was something that was created
Starting point is 00:18:14 on the fly specifically to fuck with Donnie, Chef Donnie. So really wasn't a lot of thought into it. That makes sense. This is Barstow Beast all over again. Yeah, it is. We created it as a joke, and then we heard a lot of feelings a lot of the way. He did get $1,000.
Starting point is 00:18:29 And Donnie didn't care. No, he was not want. Well, he didn't know. Yeah, he still doesn't know. He doesn't know. He's had a rough few ways. He still has no idea that that was all just like a Truman show. Fake competition so he could win it.
Starting point is 00:18:46 and we'll never tell him and he could listen to this right now and he still would look at it and be like what yeah I saw he's been having trouble spelling it's been bad yeah the spelling's been very tough it's just it's very tough
Starting point is 00:18:59 Chris how is how is your talk recruiting that was great I mean well I was bad of course but he was great so Chris was like he texted me because you have shows tonight or tonight yeah one tonight
Starting point is 00:19:12 two tomorrow two Saturday are there still tickets that people can buy oh yeah okay also true in Batavia where I'll be outside of town I saw Chris was in town Chris and I are friends it's actually amazing that he's here today I couldn't I haven't seen you in forever it's great to see you but I like saw that you were in Chicago and I was like this is going to be one of those things where we're really close but we're not seeing each other
Starting point is 00:19:35 because Batavia is just too far away and then it was like did you just land yeah yeah yeah we both you might have been on the same flight did you come from New York no I can't Philly. Yeah. Wait, so where's your show? Chicago Improv, Schaumburg. Okay, and you're at Patavia. Yeah, so go buy tickets.

Yeah, yeah. And we've got to have some type of prize for that guy. That guy can get a free office tour. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:09 I think that's a great job. You got a show proof that's fantastic. You double dipped. I love that. I got presented with my first. kiss coin in no shit Portland oh no
Starting point is 00:20:18 did you honor it I did good first time I've ever kissed a beard oh oh man she was hot yeah
Starting point is 00:20:25 you're Portland you never know no I don't do lips but I feel like you know cheek is reason I sometimes mixing lips I've thrown a lip
Starting point is 00:20:34 yeah yeah yeah what's the point of the kiss coin if you do cheek it's good point I don't know I'm I'm not I didn't even make the guest
Starting point is 00:20:43 of the year honors I don't think I that is outrageous by the way that you didn't get the nominee or the kiss call I know that it's a fake thing and it was just to hurt Donnie's feelings now do you what because you just said that was outrageous
Starting point is 00:20:58 it still is outrageous even are you playing the role of chef Donnie I'm saying that what happened to him going to the Masters is such a monumental event that wasn't exactly an accomplishment on his car by the way he got a free fucking wife I immediately would have said yes you're acting like you achieved this
Starting point is 00:21:13 I did achieve it You were shocked when I said yes. You're acting like you were in control of your feelings. He came on here and he's irresistible and you brought him to the mat. Exactly. It was nicer of him to say yes than you invite him. I gave him a trip to. That's a crazy thing.
Starting point is 00:21:27 Every little kid grows up and hopes someday they'll be at Augusta and Joey Avery made it happen. Yeah. I'm grateful. I just thought you would remember our beautiful romantic weekend. It was an incredible weekend. We had a dinner? Yeah, we did. I voted a lot?
Starting point is 00:21:42 Yeah, I was going to say, actually, I don't think we ended up. Oh, we did. We had one dinner. Yeah. The other one, yeah. A dinner. Yeah. The other one he was puking. I brought him a dinner. Oh, but wait, you met Guden? Yeah. So, Chris was texting me last night because I saw he was doing the show here, or here this week. I was like, you better stop by. And then he was like, I might come in Wednesday night. I was like, I just found out Gruden's going to be here. Chris is a diehard Gruden guy to the point that during the Super Bowl last year, the Eagles versus Chiefs, he was.
Starting point is 00:22:13 Chris was texting me it was actually no it might have been actually the it might have been the Rams game whatever it was somewhere in the playoffs it was a Super Bowl Chris was just texting me hey ask Gruden why the hell aren't we running this play I'm like I'm not with him right now Christmas hammered he's like
Starting point is 00:22:29 but I need an answer dude I was begging for that play action which they did run and score like the most epic touchdown of the Super Bowl yeah they wouldn't run it yeah and I was losing my mind I just dude I yeah that's why I was worried I was worried I was going to come on too strong so I was very like trying to I was trying to hold it back you can't with gruden
Starting point is 00:22:47 dude I just want to be in man dude I want to see what he's doing I feel like he's like mainline in the secret truth of the universe I really do I like I just want to see him work yeah yeah I mean it's there's something about being a football coach at his level that's just like I don't know he's finding order in the chaos yeah and there's also just managing people and helping guys up motivating guys the right way and he screwed him yeah i want him to do that to me i could do that he should just coach you one-on-one yeah i just yeah i mean the lukewan uh pump-up speech that he gave at the internet was unbelievable off the cuff that was just him that's what he can do for people i was showing that to anyone who would listen yeah did you give him uh your
Starting point is 00:23:36 your snap count what no i didn't i didn't i didn't i didn't no i wouldn't dude that's My voice would have cracked. That speech, by the way, the loser in that speech was Ryan Whitney. I think we can. He knows that. It was like, it was the editing of Whitney just like dogging Lu Kwan. And then two seconds later, Gruden being like, we all make mistakes we're a team. Ball up our fist and pound the fucking rock.
Starting point is 00:24:02 Woo! Dude, standing there like, fuck, man. Just like in my underwear and bed going like, let's go! I don't think I have the ability to pump up a man. It's not my bad I'd be too afraid of the NFL stars I would respect them too much Yeah it's all I don't think I could do it either
Starting point is 00:24:20 It's like you get You get a couple sentences in and you're like Where do I go? Joey I think you could I think I could too I was doing this in my head I was like yeah I think I could do it Yeah Yeah I do it in green rooms a lot
Starting point is 00:24:32 Because comedians all have really Self-defeating ideologies And like every once in a while I just be like enough of this You need to see things differently Yeah Like, I don't want to post on social media. I'm like, you have control of your own goddamn career.
Starting point is 00:24:45 I know about that. That's a gift. It's hard to pump up a comedian when their act is being sad. Yeah, but the problem is it's not an act. They're genuinely sad and they say things that will get in their own way for the rest of their life. I've tried to do that before on, like, shows, just come out and be like, let's go, everybody. And then I got nowhere to go after that. Yeah, no, you can't do it to the audience.
Starting point is 00:25:07 If you try and pump the audience up, it's very odd. That's why, like, people have, they screw. up when they do a special and like the intro is like super sick and then you get up there and you're like my penis smells weird it's like the weirdest like non-concruent thing to possibly do pump them up about their local team yeah i can't believe you just burnt your joke dude that's my favorite part of your set you found that really related it's actually really fun that would do it for me first words out of your mouth amped I was doing that for a while, because I was opening where I would basically get the crowd really pumped, and then I would just be like, my dad just died, and then people would be like, what's happening?
Starting point is 00:25:53 And I'd be like, let's start the show. Gruden could make my penis smells weird, motivational. I'm glad that sentence kept. You're like, everyone in this room, yeah, yeah. Everyone in this room's dick smells like shit. That's how I know you've been pounding away. you got to shove it places for it to smell that way no i do i feel like gruden's the closest i'd ever get to like ed harris's character in like apollo 13 it's pretty accurate wow
Starting point is 00:26:26 and i just want to yeah i want to be around him yeah yeah yeah i got to i got to like share an air Airbnb with him at the super bowl last year and it was just i would just wake up at seven in the morning he had been up for two hours taking notes and just like walking in the living room and having john gruden there he'd be like you know who led the yard who led the league in like yards after a catch this year i'm fucking know it's seven a m that's awesome does he drink at all does he booze it i think he has like wine with dinner and stuff okay yeah i'd love to see him tying one on but i don't know if that's too much energy yeah he was out with what was the crew he was out with last night spider mccarthy tables
Starting point is 00:27:09 What a crew Malice Malicek what a crew He just takes the boys out to dinner That's sick What What did you say Quiggs as well
Starting point is 00:27:20 Oh quigs Is there a little tism in there with him Or do you think he just loves football that much That is a tism Yeah I think that is a football tism But I've never seen a deviation in this personality You can't even order a nice bottle of wine How did you got up
Starting point is 00:27:36 Yeah He's got no idea. This thing's glitchy as fuck. Fals, F-A-U-S-T. Okay, I did that the first time I was going to say. Try F-H-T-E-H-T. Bang. Pretty dang good.
Starting point is 00:27:53 He just coached the table. Yeah, he did. Yeah, there could be a little tiz. I mean, that's all great football coaches, right? Like, Jim Harbaugh's shining examples. Have you guys all got it? He has the iPad at the table like it's a sideline. Yeah, right, the Microsoft surface.
Starting point is 00:28:07 Thank you, sorry Have you guys all gotten a pretty damn good from him? Have you guys all done something where he's gone pretty damn good? Yeah, he's... I feel like, yes. He kind of pumps you up. Damn. Just like a little...
Starting point is 00:28:20 Even like a fist pound with him is just like... Unbelievable. Every day and then, like, even though he's, you know, a little older, like... You're like, if you hadn't seen him in a long time, he'd do a little, like, chest bump. Yeah. Solid. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:34 Yeah, he likes it. He can tell. He's like, I like this contact. You want to hit his shoulder. Yeah. The fist pound works with him because his face goes along with it. Yeah. Every time he fist pounds, he's like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:47 It's just something about the human body. Oh, yeah. Contact. He was talking about the Eagles and his face scrunched up, and I was like, oh. That face scrunched. It doesn't get any better. This is the cutest face scrunch. He doesn't get any better than this.
Starting point is 00:29:07 It feels like he has, like, synesthesia for football, you know, when people can, like, taste colors and shit. Like, I think he's seeing stuff that I don't see. He feels it in his body. Yeah. Yeah. I wanted to get him with Mikey Betts today because I don't know if you guys saw the box score, but that team is.
Starting point is 00:29:24 I could not believe they lost that. So we have a rec league basketball team. Dana's doing a documentary, and the team is now 0 and 3. It's pretty embarrassing, especially considering the fact that we have a basketball court. He should go no nut until you guys win. Yeah, it's like that you can't crank until. Look at this thing. And the team they played last night was also 0 and 3.
Starting point is 00:29:46 Yeah. I hear they brought in ringers. Oh, they did. But I think that's going to happen. Five new players. Oh, that's bullshit. You guys show up as the Barstool team with cameras. Ringers are going to show up every time.
Starting point is 00:29:57 Yeah, true. Yeah, someone just turned the audio on the TV up for some. Oh, yeah. Yeah, we hear it. Wait, go back to the box score. Yeah, I hear the TV as well. Tate. So the team they played like really good basketball
Starting point is 00:30:12 players? I guess. That's what I heard. Dana Beers were one for 12. Yeah, they were okay. They weren't great. I was hearing some complaining about the officiating. Well, yeah, Mikey Betts. But they won by a lot. Mikey Betts. Yeah, right. A really good point.
Starting point is 00:30:28 Great point. Good point. 29 points. Yeah. A couple tough calls at the end. Came down to a couple calls. What, uh, Mikey Betts's fit was incredible, though. He looked like he was basketball coach slash, slash like bookie out there on the court. I don't know. Do the guys respect it?
Starting point is 00:30:51 Look at him. That's a guy. That's a guy. Yeah. That's a guy. Just eating an Italian sub on the side. Yeah. He's playing in the game or?
Starting point is 00:31:01 That's the coach. I was going to say. Yeah. This was the game they were confident about. They had to win this. This was the one last night they were like, we will win. this one. They lost by three.
Starting point is 00:31:09 That's my cat's like an Uber because he knew he was going to celebrate Yeah, he was going to party after. Yeah. You need a Gruden speech. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:16 But they promised they were going to get their turnovers down, which they did. There you go. Yeah, he needed to get into Gruden's year today.
Starting point is 00:31:24 So, Chee, you guys just got, are people respecting Mikey? Is it a coaching? I gave, by the way, on behalf of the ownership, I gave a vote of confidence to Mikey Betz. Your voice is my voice.
Starting point is 00:31:34 Okay. Yeah, I figured you would have no problem with the vote of confidence. Wow. What a graphic. That graphic is awesome. No disrespect.
Starting point is 00:31:44 He does look like a winless coach. He looks like the coach before the coach. The last coach before the rags to riches. Yeah, before the guy who showed up who found the fun in basketball. Gordon Bombay takes over this team and wins it all. He's energetically a winless coach. Yeah. You're like, how did you turn the season around?
Starting point is 00:32:10 Well, we got rid of the coach. The last guy. I would love to hear Gruden getting his ass about planning the party after the game. Yeah. That's a big no-no. In hindsight. I know a coach. I wonder how Gruden would like the fake benching that Betts does.
Starting point is 00:32:30 The test benching. He'll go up to the players and say they're benched. And if they're mad, they're not actually benched. it's a good strategy I think I like that yeah right it's a really good shredding but they'll also lie to people and tell them they're starting and then they don't start right
Starting point is 00:32:45 it's a little confusing at times so chay are you like when you're down 20 with five minutes left like what is yeah what are you doing oh we're down I think the score at halftime was like 34 to 8 oh no embarrassing oh my god um and you just said they weren't that good
Starting point is 00:33:03 Che that's what they they they the first thing we played was like amazing. I've played men's league basketball for a while. That was one of the best teams I've ever seen. This team was like, they had some players that were certainly good, but like they weren't an overwhelming team. We just didn't make any shots. And we just had no offense. It was just like dumped the ball in and nobody moved. A lot of ball watching. Ebo told me Tate was the best player on the floor, even though he won for 12. I don't think Tate played a bad game. He was one for 12.
Starting point is 00:33:33 I want to hear the craziest stat I think is that Tate had three points who's our third leading score Not a good night But this is the mid-level team, right? Like it's not the advanced team It's not the lowest, yes We got to get into the lowest
Starting point is 00:33:50 We got to relegate ourselves You got to do whatever it takes to get a win Including go to the lowest league I do think there was a turning point In the second half Because we're down by so many points Is that in the first minute of the second half I think it was Dana or maybe it was White Boy, or it was Rick, got fouled on a layup and they didn't call it, got his own rebound.
Starting point is 00:34:11 And before he even goes up, Mikey Betts gets on the court and starts screaming at the official. Rick gets fouled. They call it. And then Mikey Betts gets teed up. The official comes over and starts yelling at Betts. And then Betts goes back at him, almost got thrown out of the game. But then I think we went on, he bets said we went on a tunnel run after that. Oh, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:31 It's about getting the next call. That's like a 50% of your point. You scored 29 and had a 10-0 run. That's amazing. We started out the game, or before the game, Betts took all the balls away, and he would shoot and we'd practice boxing out. Why?
Starting point is 00:34:50 Oh. So you guys didn't get a shoot to warm up. And then you mysteriously could not make shots during the game. Coach needs to get some shots up. You practice dealing with. shots you watched mikey betts shoot well it kind of sad because you said you guys were getting out physical in there too didn't you uh i don't know if we're getting out physical i think betts sounded like coach thought we were he said her biggest problem is second chance points
Starting point is 00:35:17 i don't know what was it was there any part of the game that you're like we did that well we did change things in the second half where it's like in the first half it was like dumping in and then if dana rick can't score like nobody's moving nobody's doing anything and we wouldn't we were in hanging shot. So that was just a terrible offense. In the second half, we figured out something where Rick would go deep. Me, Tate, Chief, Ebo, Connor, whoever's in, is going to rebound, get the ball to Tate, and then let's try and get Rick on like essentially a one-on-one or a post down low where he's got, you know, nobody else doubling him.
Starting point is 00:35:50 And that actually worked. So hopefully figured out some type of fast break offense, we got a rebound. Wait, what was the final score? You were down 28-9 and 1 half? I think it was like 34-6 or 34-8. 34-8? So they called the game. If you get doubled up, they call it with like two minutes.
Starting point is 00:36:06 So we gave up a basket and we got doubled up. Wait, you got mercy ruled? Wait, they stopped the game and then you played the second half? No, no, no, no, no. They stopped it with like two minutes left. Oh, my God. I didn't know you get mercy. That's kind of.
Starting point is 00:36:19 The final score is 58, 29 because I believe it was. Oh, my God. There was like a minute of 45 left. The reclory game. I didn't know you get mercy ruled. That's also against the team that you were going, that Mikey Betts said we will win this I didn't know that was a thing But it was only two minutes left
Starting point is 00:36:35 Yeah They couldn't have just Yeah that's really like that's rude Wait so you guys actually were competitive in the second half What was the halftime score? I think we won the second half Wait No
Starting point is 00:36:45 34 8 oh 21 It might have been 346 It was We were losing Oh my god You're down 34 6 at half That's like a That's like a 116 women's bracket
Starting point is 00:36:57 score Yeah It's like when you Yeah No Yukon plays like St. Mary's of, you know, Pennsylvania. Are we, like, has your guys, how's your guys conditioning? Can you, can you?
Starting point is 00:37:11 I don't think it's bad. I don't think anybody was like that huffing and puffin. We had seven guys last, last night because Smoke's set was suspended. And then Dana got hurt at some point, I think, late first half. He definitely rolled his ankle pretty bad. And it's, it is tough, though, because you guys, like, you're not together near basketball court ever. so you can't really practice. No practice.
Starting point is 00:37:33 Yeah, I think we might be practicing some more. Also, okay, good. I'm not her shaming, but Dana gets hurt all the fucking time. Yeah, he's injury prone. Yeah, he's injury prone. He's your best player. I would love it if Betts came out with just no balls practice, just on the end line. Is he here?
Starting point is 00:37:54 He's probably heated listening. He's so mad. He's here. All right, get him and have him. I'll get it off. Where you are, Chey. The player who is suspended is suspended because he left the group chat, the team group chat. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:07 So he got suspended for a game. Yes. Why would you leave the team group chat, though? There's a whole thing. Because he said he was sick, and he was like, I won't go to the game if you don't want me to. And they're like, yeah, it's best you stay home. Smokes is not the best player. He said smokes is their best player?
Starting point is 00:38:20 I think so. He left because they didn't want him to play sick. Rick's the best player. Yeah. Yeah, that's probably true. You can't hold me? He's fixing his hair. Yes.
Starting point is 00:38:30 what about joining the co-ed league and letting sydney wells play yeah that could be a good way to build the whole team around sydney well yeah well someone also volunteered to play that is a barstool employee but not necessarily in this office uh mr jason williams oh that would be big you would be used i think that would probably be a nice touch that would help yeah still lose you guys lose by 15 with jason williams betz is like that's we can build on this we can work with this. A lot of good stuff out there. That's benches him because he played a mind game with him that Jason Williams fails. Yep, you're

Had to.
Starting point is 00:40:30 There was only six people. I had to. I couldn't go with four. You should have sent a message. What could be, what would happen with four? You'd be like down like 34, six and half? I just, I don't understand. No shots.
Starting point is 00:40:44 No shots went down. That's a famous move. Norman Dale did that. Yeah. He rolled four. I didn't watch out there. But yeah, no. How are you good?
Starting point is 00:40:54 Are you upset that I said you, that picture of you looks like the coach before the coach. I mean, I kind of look like Iber flew. and tibs combined, so I get it, but it's... Do you take any responsibility for the loss? No, I don't... No, I'm a rec club basketball call. I have courtside tickets to the O-N-3 Yuggrenots. That's what I have.
Starting point is 00:41:14 I call occasional timeouts, and I tell who to go in. Now, that's leadership. Did you call for a full court press again? No, I didn't. There was no need. You know what? I kept saying, let's get tight, play tight, and nobody played tight. They didn't listen to you for playing tight.
Starting point is 00:41:28 That's what I'm, it can't be my fault if nobody's listening. Like, the problem is, is lost the locker room. No, I have the locker room. They just don't know how to shoot. Everyone's showing up late. It's showing up late and not shooting well. What's the half? Also, aren't you supposed to play loose?
Starting point is 00:41:43 Yeah. Not when you're down 25. Like, you're supposed to, like, play a little tight. What was going on at half? Play tighter? What was going on at half? No, like, deep defensively play tight. What was going on at half?
Starting point is 00:41:54 What was the score? Yeah, it was 34 to 8. Do you guys have to go into like a, the men's restroom no we had uh like a 60 second like let's just get a water and what'd you say i said this is embarrassing we need to get our shots up we need to figure out who the fuck we are and let's let's cut this lead in half and try to get a win and then we didn't get a win we got slaughtered i mean it was it was a bad day like it's just we couldn't shoot we just could not shoot we shot what 23% yeah 11% from the threes do you take any blame for taking uber to the
Starting point is 00:42:27 game because quote unquote we're going to win and i'm going to party after no i also i drove there but i got it i parked in a garage because i was like i'll just pay for it overnight and we'll party and then i'll go in the morning didn't happen i just drove home so yeah it sucked how do how do when you get mercy ruled what happens like what that's stupid fucking ref he he could not wait to mercy rule us dude he was like looking at the clock more than he was looking at the players getting followed he was the word he wanted to go home the worst ref of all time. But the second the ball goes in, they blow the whistle, and
Starting point is 00:42:55 what do they say? What do you mean? Like, how does it actually... Oh, yeah. How does it transpire? The rep blows the whistle. Yeah. Said you guys suck? Basically, he said, good game, boys, that's it. All of them. Said, shake him up. Shake him up. Shuck him up. But after the game,
Starting point is 00:43:11 I went up to the ref and I gave him a good eye doctor. I told him good eye doctor. You said that to him? Yeah, he walked away. It's on film. I was so fucking. He said, here's a good eye doctor? I said, here's a good eye doctor? Because you can't see shit but you got into a screaming match he got into a screaming shot or a screaming match I screamed I said
Starting point is 00:43:28 hey that's a foul and then he's hey you need to calm down and I was like you need to call a foul and then I got on the court and like we were going back and forth then he gave me a technical I like that's coaching yeah I like well yeah we went on a run right after that because the Ozo missed two free throw technicals
Starting point is 00:43:44 and then we went on 11 no run but we still got so he calls a perfect game you guys make all your foul shots do you win No, no, we don't win. It's just, we could not shoot. We were just not shooting. When's your next game?
Starting point is 00:43:58 Two weeks from now. All right. Yeah. That's plenty of time. Time to get in the lab. Yeah, I talked to Gruden today. Oh, you did? Yeah, I said I need help.
Starting point is 00:44:06 And I showed him the box score. He said he's going to send a video to us. Wait, two weeks from today, that's New Year's Eve. Maybe then three weeks from today. Okay. Even better. So he's going to. New Year's Eve, Rec League basketball.
Starting point is 00:44:18 To go get slaughtered. As the clock strikes me. How many more games are there? I don't know. I don't know if this is true, but I've been telling the guys that no matter what every team makes the playoffs. I don't know if that's true. I've just been telling them that to keep them motivated. Yeah, that's good. Are you to get some shootarounds together?
Starting point is 00:44:39 If you're going to triage it, what are the... It's hard to get shootarounds and a practice going. I'm trying to get a practice for tomorrow, but we'll see if everybody says yes. There's a court. Sounds like you need some shooting drills. I mean, we do need shooting drills. They know how to shoot. It's just when they get there, they turn into these little, like, school girls.
Starting point is 00:44:54 I forget how to. They're playing tight. They're playing so soft, too. It's like they, there's no elbows. There's no, like, they're not, these teams are not scared of us. You're getting out physical. Out physical, then laughed at. Like, there's this little guy who was talking shit back and forth down to the court.
Starting point is 00:45:08 It's like, hit, hit him. Give him a hard ass foul and shut his ass up. He won't be talking anymore. Like, throw him to the floor. Get a file. You got five files. Use them. And we're acting like, I feel like we need a response from Steve because he said they were, they were not getting
Starting point is 00:45:20 out physical. We were getting out physical, Jay. You need an enforcer. But those aren't worth points, Mikey. Why don't we put Kadek on the team? I want Kadek on the team. Why don't you suit that? I want to suit up.
Starting point is 00:45:32 If Kadek can't play, I was about to suit up. I was like, we need somebody to, like, just use their fucking four-files. I think we got to get Kadek on the team and just let them play football out there. Yeah, just like get these guys to stop talking shit and then stop driving in. And then we weren't driving in to save our lives. We try to get the big guys separate the floor so the lane that the lane's not so clogged. and Tate just doesn't want to drive in sometimes. Tate had a bad shooting night.
Starting point is 00:45:55 But he was the best player on the team? Tate? No, Rick is the best player on the team. Who was the best last night? Who had the best game? Rick did? Yeah, shot 40%. Which is lights out for us.
Starting point is 00:46:07 That's Steph Curry level. It's disappointing. Like, I really thought we were going to win, and the fact that we got blown out. How many games in the regular season? No idea. I think six. So we can go, or let's say seven
Starting point is 00:46:20 So we can go four and three Oh, okay That's a big turn around I can imagine Yeah Okay, well thank you Mikey Thanks guys Hey, vote of confidence
Starting point is 00:46:30 What does that mean? Every time somebody says that They get fired Yeah, but I did give you a vote of confidence All right thanks, appreciate it, see God The loss was last night It was
Starting point is 00:46:46 Yeah, so it's still fresh Yeah, it's fine The vote of confidence, he had to Google what vote of confidence spent. Oh, man. I love the schedule of this league. The first 12 weeks of the season, they'll play four games. Yeah. They probably have a doubleheader somewhere.
Starting point is 00:47:02 The last two times I've been here, Mikey's gotten kind of an intervention. Yeah, yeah. That's that pretty every time. I think Gordon needs to pull him aside individually and talk to him. Yeah, a little private talk. It feels like the team, I mean, he's saying he goes out there, he yells at the ref, the team responds, but then he's like no one listens to me. I feel like he's undervalue
Starting point is 00:47:22 coaching leadership. I've been telling him that he needs to run a practice and he needs to slap someone across the face. And I said, I'll be that guy for him. I'll be on the team and he just slap me across the face. Because like they don't respect them. It's like I remember the Titans scenario. Yeah. Brandon, did you get to a yelling match with Mints over there? No, I said Mints. Hey, I got to talk to you. And he was about to lean over
Starting point is 00:47:44 the rail and I was going to ask him a question. And he Oh, he said, I don't... He's coaching right now. Oh, it's hot. I'm not throwing people on the bus. I told you what I told you. I told him what I told him. I told everybody the same fucking shit, right?
Starting point is 00:47:58 So what's the difference of me telling you and the whole thing? And then I'm going to tell these guys. What's the big deal? You're throwing your locker room under the bus. I told you. I told everybody. Rick's got to get that smile off his face. It's the same thing.
Starting point is 00:48:12 No, everything's wrong here. You take no responsibility. Then what do you do for us as coach? You guys need a fire. What are you talking about? So what adjustments are you making? What are you doing for us? What are you doing for us?
Starting point is 00:48:26 Hey, hey, hey, ball, ball, go fucking wrong or wrong, move, bro. He is the perfect last place, code. He just embodies every character. He's created the bad news. The drug. By no example. No responsibility. The coach being like, who the fuck are we?
Starting point is 00:48:54 The coach being like, it starts with everyone else. The buck stops with you. He's perfect. He's perfect. He's perfect coaches. Oh, he's back. So what do we need you for then? Nothing.
Starting point is 00:49:11 I'm there for fucking shits and giggles, I guess. But if I'm going to be there, I'm going to fucking hope, right? You have a vote of confidence from the locker. Me to fucking vote a copper. Just shove him your ass. I need you that. That's it. Fuck out of you.
Starting point is 00:49:25 Turn this thing off. That's the ass. That's the last thing. That's a great last line. He needs to coach. We need to just create more teams. Just every team we put out there, Mikey's the coach. I've never seen coaching like that.
Starting point is 00:49:46 That was awesome. Nothing. I'm here for shitting things. I don't matter. Turn this fucking thing. Working at a media company being like no more outside media. No time to the press. I need like with the end of 2026, like Mikey Betts has coached like eight different teams and his combined record is like four and 78. Trending that way.
Starting point is 00:50:09 He hasn't been able to take a one Uber home. He's actually like he's. I would love it if you could make him do pressers after the time. Oh, we should. Yeah, you need to. And just have a, yeah, press that's on his ad. Act. Actual questions?
Starting point is 00:50:22 Yeah, yeah. You should set up. We definitely should. What was your strategy there in the third quarter? I will go ask questions for sure. Did y'all see the mincy tweet this morning? Yeah, what was that? That's what I was getting to the bottom of.
Starting point is 00:50:37 Okay. So he said, if any Ole Miss College student in Oxford today wants to make an easy, $100, please, DM me. It's a Lane Kiff and fun favorites. I'm going to ask you guys. right now because I now know I had to ask him what do you think the favor is can I
Starting point is 00:50:53 can I make a real guess yes he needs somewhere to sleep I'm gonna say he needs someone to video him and that's what I thought tailgates that's what I thought okay hmm he needs someone to drive from Oxford to Memphis
Starting point is 00:51:09 to picking him up from the airport tonight easy and fun and I said I said Ben more fun as that I said Ben we're We're grown people around here. Let's rent our own car. You can run a car.
Starting point is 00:51:20 Just rent a car and drive down there. And he said, no, this is easier. And what college student wouldn't want to make $100 like this? How far is that? About an hour, hour and 15 probably. So that's an Uber? Yeah. He said he didn't think that time of night he could get an Uber.
Starting point is 00:51:36 So he does. Also, it is almost every college is definitely on Christmas break already. Yeah. Or at least close to him on Thursday night before. So that's what he wants. He wants somebody to drive from Oxford to Memphis. him up and take him back to Oxford. Has he had any luck?
Starting point is 00:51:49 Has he had any luck? I don't know. He doesn't feel like the safest stretch of road. It's not. And it's also late at night and, again, he could just rent a car. Is that who you want to spend an hour with is the person who responds to that tweet? Yeah. Well, do you?
Starting point is 00:52:05 Oh, I don't know. Yeah. Who's it? Yeah. Hour and a half, basically. Yeah. And then back for where this kid is. So that's three hours.
Starting point is 00:52:17 hours and then it's not like... 100 is way... Not enough. I can't imagine driving right to the airport and Mence knows exactly where to be. There's definitely going to be some waiting and searching involved as well. Yeah. It's a four-hour thing. Yeah. I feel like if you're going to do that, which I don't condone, you should be up front about what the task is. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:34 Say, I need a ride from the airport. Also, there's no guarantee that whoever respond to that's actually going to pick him up. Correct. Oh, no. Yeah, I'll be there. What gate is it? Venmo me first. Renting a car.
Starting point is 00:52:47 among the easier things you can do. Rented one this morning. Very easy. Very easy. He said he couldn't, he didn't know where to, he wouldn't want to take it back to Memphis. He wouldn't want to pay the fee to park it to send it somewhere else. Does he have his license? But you can, have you seen?
Starting point is 00:53:02 I've seen him drive. Yeah. He's driven to my driveway. You can drop. That's right. That's right. You can drop off a rental car at a different place. Anywhere, Dan.
Starting point is 00:53:12 Oxford's definitely got rental car places. There's just no chance he can't drop it off there. He's not flying out of the same airport. Joey. He may never come. Joey, Joey, this is a grown man who is flying to the airport tonight, getting picked up by a college student, taken to his buddy's house in Oxford. At his buddy's house in Oxford, he's going to spend three or four days.
Starting point is 00:53:33 He's going to go the game for free. At that point, one of his relatives will take him from Oxford to Monroe for his family celebration. And at some point, I assume, said relative will also take him from Monroe back to Memphis. You forgot that he'll tweet the hours he's at the time. the tailgate so he can swing by some places. I just feel like to live that lifestyle is awesome, but let's drive ourselves a couple of places. I think so.
Starting point is 00:53:57 Yeah, let's drive ourselves a couple places. My goal in 2026 is to make Ben Mets an adult. It's nicer to actually be alone in a rental car. Oh, it's a random college. That is a nightmare. That is desperate for $100. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:14 I would love like a lot of status. What was that realization to your face? What's your face just do? Does your hair suck today? Why is it? Oh, it's weird. It's so big.
Starting point is 00:54:27 You're looking at peak up. I'll knock it down. There. Still big. Better? A little bit. Better? You got a no on your account the other day.
Starting point is 00:54:39 You got to know? Huh? I'm good. Oh. That's not today, guys. Not horrible, though. But that's not today. But today will not be good.
Starting point is 00:54:48 Do yesterday. Do yesterday. Back. Okay, but today we won't be good. I haven't seen the mostly tape today. This is always a mostly decision. It seems pretty fine. I think it looks good now.
Starting point is 00:55:00 Yeah. Seems standard. It was really juzzed up. Sometimes I'll judge. You're the man, Brandon. I'll jose on these hos. Yeah, so you're going to make mincing adult. That's not going to happen.
Starting point is 00:55:09 Also, he'd be out of a job. I just feel like if he's going to Oxford so much, he ought to be able to just rent a car bang bang boom get himself to oxford get himself back no problem instead he is so dependent why is he so dependent on other people at all times i don't know i saw i saw that one video of him trying to drive a car didn't go so good yeah that was that was yeah yeah his driveway driveway i'm surprised you have so much confidence in his driving you want that guy on the road for an hour and a no it's just oxford it's not like you know i don't know man no he couldn't handle a cul-de-sac that's true it's cold a cul-de-sac through him for
Starting point is 00:55:44 multiple times. Wait, yeah, there's no way he can drive. Yeah. He couldn't handle the driveway. He got that wrong. No way. Didn't he do an after dark driving challenge with him? Am I misremembering?
Starting point is 00:55:59 I don't know if he's ever done driving. Yeah. Mincy. Mincy sunsets, too, probably for sure. Oh, yeah. He's sunset and big time. I'm surprised he can handle an airport. like he can no you can check he can check him go through security and get to his gate he they put him in the

Starting point is 00:57:57 I think he tweeted that he got it figured out. Oh, he did. But. You already got to have a $100? Yeah. Would you feel like that I need a $200 job? Yeah. You'd probably do it for a hundred job.
Starting point is 00:58:12 He's not a 50-minute drive. It's not a 50-minute drive. He's forgetting about... A round trip. He's not thinking of the person. Yeah, no. He has to get there. No, an Uber would be $200 if you went there and back.
Starting point is 00:58:35 Okay. So he found a... He found the person. he's going to this guy's going to get a job i'd pay that it's actually a hundred is a deal yeah i'd pay that guy i'd pay that guy another hundred bucks to hold out to for 400 bucks yeah yeah yeah yeah i'll pay you 200 not to pick him up that and say you will oh man start it He had three takers

Like every other guy you see here has hair. yes yes yes that's incredible yeah yes and what you don't have to take any like pills or anything you do you know after you get it done the rest of life i think and for like four months afterwards there was like 15 gargoyles walking around here like they're all they get all swollen look at it is this is the whole crew yeah they're all getting it they all got it done wow brilliant wow Nikki smokes hair really

Starting point is 01:05:08 Yeah. Yeah, so you can say it. Yeah, I can say it. I watched season one. I'm so pumped to see season two. It actually happened last time I was here when I was here for like a week. I think it was that weekend. I was somewhere random like Springfield, Massachusetts.
Starting point is 01:05:22 I just got the self-tape. I sent it in six days later. I was like in a scene with Vince Vaugh. That's fucking awesome. It happened so crazy. So yeah, we filmed through the end of January and then, or I guess end of Feb. I don't know when it's going to come out, but it's been awesome. Down in Florida?

Starting point is 01:05:51 See what happens in 10, but yeah. Yeah, we've been in a lot. That's going to be awesome. When did you guys start shooting? I think, like, very end of September. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, it's been really cool.
Starting point is 01:06:04 For tires, are you guys shooting? Is it, like, very quick? um yeah it's pretty it's pretty fast hectic it's like three months yeah it's always pretty hectic yeah it's yeah it's nonstop i'm sure it's it's it was i've never been on a like a set before so to see the scale and size of it and the interplay between like the trucks and the food and the sound stage and like the dance of getting it all shot is absolutely insane it's crazy yeah the production one thing screws up like everyone's in hell for two weeks it has to be perfect yeah the production staff is like unreal yeah how they put these things
Starting point is 01:06:43 together yeah yeah yeah I guess I haven't been on a real set before like what's the most amount of takes you've had to do both of you um I had to shoot like a perfect swish of a bad I wasn't even in it they were just shooting like a basketball going through the hoop and I had to shoot like a perfect shot and I did that maybe 50 you'd be perfect for our team Let's get that tape to Mikey Betts. I had to chase down a suspect, and so I was, like, sprinting, and we just kept doing it over and over and over again. On the last one, I felt like a pop, and I had a giant, basically, bruise. I tore my groin, essentially in the show.
Starting point is 01:07:25 It must have been a low grade, because it didn't actually hurt. I had a giant, like, bruised thigh, because I had to sprint on and off for, like, four different hours. It was insane. Oh, geez. Damn. Just fatigued. Other than that, it's been, like, you get it the way it's shot a few times, and then it's been really fun. They always let us improvise, so we've been able to, like, you know, write new lines.
Starting point is 01:07:46 That's cool. We live in the scene. It's been super fun. Did you pull up when you were running? No, I finished the play. I felt like a light pop, and I just kept sprinting, and it wasn't, like, crazy, and I was just like, I really hope we don't have to do that again. I know. You get to feel like an athlete, though, for a second.
Starting point is 01:08:04 Yeah, yeah. And then they're like, all right, now you have to do it, like, a job. jujitsu scene on the ground i was like i don't know how to do that at all figured it out you had jujitsu right after that yeah nice yeah i i did yeah because they had we had i had a stunt guy which was crazy like walking on set and there's just a dude dressed exactly like me like same height and like kind of looked like me and all that and was he what was he more handsome i mean no okay he was more athletic yeah yeah which is almost worse yeah he was just running like a gazelle he form tackled the suspect and I was like that's going to look so cool
Starting point is 01:08:42 when people think it's me yeah I'm the man yeah yeah and it is a thing when you're a little kid like when you're an athlete you're like I would do all my own stunts yeah not at all I was like this is too much sprinting yeah substitute the real guy in yeah like a stunt guy to run for you no I did the running I was gonna say yeah is that a cutthroat profession stunt guy yeah I would I mean, I think so. Yeah, I would assume so. But it was interesting because the guy, so there was a guy, there was a stunt coordinator, right? And his name was Troy.
Starting point is 01:09:15 And then also on set, where's the stunt guy, and everyone was calling him Troy boy. And we were like, what's the Troy thing? And the stunt coordinator and the stunt man had the exact same first and last name. Oh, shit. So we were like, well, we assume that it's his son. It wasn't his son. It was his best friend's son. but he and his best friend had the same last name
Starting point is 01:09:36 so his best friend named his son after the stunt man and they were all stuntmen so it was a stunt family tight-knit world yeah but he was like he got hit by a car and he was like I didn't know we were doing car stuff today and I was like what a crazy and they made him get hit by the car like six times
Starting point is 01:09:58 really yeah he just kept in and like the older Troy was like harder and I was like really they didn't cheat it they were just crushing him with a car he was getting hit by that car that was CGI was coming like it was done to you know the standards of the stunt community it was cool but to me I was
Starting point is 01:10:18 shocked yeah you're yeah you got ice on your girl and there was like another stunt man there who's like oh this is nothing dude they've been sending they've been sending people to like Bosnia to do stunts you can do anything over there I was like what does that mean I don't know anything
Starting point is 01:10:34 Yeah, I think Alec Baldwin's going to go over there. Yeah. It kind of sucks that the guy took away. They're getting hit by a car. That's not good enough for him? Yeah, I kept being like, I think it's good. He just kept getting hit. This is impressive.
Starting point is 01:10:52 Cars kill people. Yeah, but he loved it, though. Like, you could tell. It was like the Gruden thing. Like, he needed contact. He would hit the car, roll, land on the ground, stand up, and keep running. and you could just tell he was getting kind of fired up by getting hit, you know, yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:08 It's not a lot of venues you can do that in. No, there's not. It has to be embarrassing for them if they, like, that's how they get killed. Yeah, out in the street in the regular day, if they were like, Oh, yeah. My car and died.
Starting point is 01:11:18 Fuck, I've portrayed my whole life. Yeah, the rest of the community has to be. Yeah, that's got to be the hard part about being a stunt guy. Is anytime you drop anything, you're like, am I losing it? Yeah. Can't slip. It's stressful.
Starting point is 01:11:33 Slip in the tub You can't slip in the tub Yeah Bonk your head Are you guys familiar With intimacy coordinators? Oh yeah Mm-hmm
Starting point is 01:11:46 Yeah Love actually Yes Right Good intimacy coordinator Oh yeah she's the nipple lady And she's pretending Yes
Starting point is 01:11:55 Yes The fluffer kind of Why'd you bring it up? Because I just found out That was like a real job Oh oh Are you thinking about it? No
Starting point is 01:12:02 That would be awful right yeah probably it would be so uncomfortable and is that to make the intimate seems more realistic or is it like I think it's like comfort level like saying it's such a how do the guys not like come yeah
Starting point is 01:12:17 I can just imagine the intimacy coordinator like going up to both people like what are you comfortable with the guy's like I'm fucking down for whatever I'm good to fuck her I don't understand that I'm totally down I'll just fuck her if you want me rolling around with like a super bottle if it makes your life easier I'll fuck
Starting point is 01:12:33 come I'm sorry I came again I don't get it that has to happen a decent amount but they would have to use that take right yeah because it's the most realistic take you I imagine they tape it down into the back or something
Starting point is 01:12:50 they do tape to the back I don't know how we're the bat wait what I go that way between the legs I imagine now you're coming in your own ass yeah let that be a lesson listen if you come in this scene it's going to be in your own Do you know, have you guys seen saltburn?
Starting point is 01:13:07 Yeah. You know when he fucks the grave? Yeah. That was improvised. You can't just improvise. Apparently it was improvised, which is my favorite, like, set story of all time, imagining the director just watching him pull his dick out and have sex with the mud and then be like, great coverage.
Starting point is 01:13:22 Let's do one the way it was written. I love we're not going to do that. And we'll probably definitely use it. But let's just do one in the spirit of the script, and I think we'll be good. I can't imagine walking away from that. as an actor being like, yeah, just I just really went for it. Yeah, you gotta be insane.
Starting point is 01:13:38 What the fuck is wrong with you? What are you major into the Intimacy coordinator? What is the background of those people? Maybe psych, psychology, I don't know. HR? It's weirdos, yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:50 Yeah. It's HR weirdos. HR? I don't know. Yeah. I feel like it'd be kind of a fun job. Yeah. We get to like find out of my modus department.
Starting point is 01:13:57 Tucks it into your butt. It's what they're wearing during sex scenes. Oh. That looks like it would feel pretty good. Yeah. I'm going to come faster. That's like silk? Clooney said he's done smooching, I saw.
Starting point is 01:14:07 What? Yeah. No. Huge news. No. So his wife won't let him smooch anymore. No. That's happening it.
Starting point is 01:14:14 How dare she? I want to see Clooney smooch. Clooney won't smooch in movies anymore. That's bullshit. That's crazy as a famous actor who's in his 60s to start getting rules. Yeah. But why? I mean, how old?
Starting point is 01:14:29 How long do you smooch though? Do you smooch at 70? yeah because the 75 he's still acting he's not smooching that much in movies it's cluity man what if it's an old he hasn't been in a movie in a while anyway right i don't know hollywood lets dudes be like the guy who gets a hot chick forever based he's just in that new and at whatever weight too yeah it's related it's what people want to see guys at least only guys but they want to be like yeah i bet i could get a hot chick he's doing it that old fat guy there must have been an incident there has been an incident there
Starting point is 01:15:02 The last kiss had to have been pretty. It probably like came up at a dinner, you know, when they're like, well, it's just acting. It doesn't mean anything. He had a few glasses of wine and he's like, well, sometimes it connects you. So you really enjoyed work today, huh, George? Or he didn't smooch hard enough hurt. Like, he went home and smooch wasn't the same. He gave her a movie smooch.
Starting point is 01:15:21 I think the actors get serious about it. Like, they want to feel the passion. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. You'd come. Yeah. Oh, it was the... Sorry, I'm a method actor.
Starting point is 01:15:28 Rehearsal. Yeah, that's what I'm thinking of. Yeah. The rehearsal, the dude just says. sitting there with Nathan and he's just watching his girlfriend, shoving her tongue down a dude's throat. Yeah. So many scenes. He's just like, well, you know.
Starting point is 01:15:41 How does this make you feel? I'm proud of her. I support her. What a show. Yeah, I was going to say, I feel like the Sully Speed Run episode might be the greatest episode of TV. It was insane. So good. I've never been confronted by
Starting point is 01:16:01 something. that made me laugh that hard of my entire life. I could have never expected what was happening. There's no way to. I fucking love that show. I think I'd rather see them behind the scenes. I never know how he gets such perfect, oblivious character. Yeah.

We did Skank Fest, this is comedy festival together.
Starting point is 01:21:01 This is maybe like three, four years ago. And you know when you're like kind of in a new environment, you link up with someone? He was my ally. We were like best friends. We'd wake up every day. We were going to the gym. We were going to the gym in the morning. We were doing Starbucks.
Starting point is 01:21:14 So one night we're having a good time. We're hanging with Shane. We indulged in a little, you know, extracurricular. We took some psychedelics of that. But we were, this is, this is. He's what, okay, yeah. No, go ahead. Oh, it was sass there?
Starting point is 01:21:27 No. He's told us a similar, okay. Maybe it was, I don't know. I think it was pre-Himp. It was like pre-COVID. It was a long time ago. Anyway, Chris was kind of like, I don't know if I should. My brain gets a little crazy.
Starting point is 01:21:40 And I was like, don't be a pussy. Just do it. And then we all do it. And Chris kind of disappears. And I'm like, where are you at? And he's like, I'm at the hotel. I'm listening to a podcast about China. I'm like, have a nice time, dude.
Starting point is 01:21:54 He likes, you know, he's trying to settle down stuff, you know, as he was locked in. And then he jumps off the map, and the next morning we had plans to, like, go to Starbucks. I was like, hey, you want me to get you anything? Well, I don't hear anything from him. Finally, at 5 p.m. that day, he goes, there's no easy way to say this. I went to the mountains. He booked a flight while on these drugs at 5 a.m. Went to the airport, flew from Vegas missing all his shows the next day and flew to Colorado.
Starting point is 01:22:23 No, fucking... I was to see the mountains. Yeah. And when you got there, were you coming down? Were you like, oh, this... Yeah, I was landing. I was landing and coming down, and I was like, what if I don't? The worst all that ever, bro.
Starting point is 01:22:40 You know, like, this is insane, and there's no way to hide this. Yeah, right. You're in Colorado. You're sober now. And all your friends are in one place wanting to know what happened. And, yeah, so, well, yeah, so then I get there, and I have no clothes for the mountains. Right. I'm no way of getting, I flew to Denver.
Starting point is 01:23:03 I have no way of getting into the mountains. And so I just got an Uber into the mountains. And the guy, like, the guy took me up to this glacier, like the Uber drove me up to this glacier. And I just like, I was like, all right, man, thanks. And as I was closing the door, he's like, how are you going to get home? And I was like, I don't know. I'll think of something. He's like, there's no service up here.
Starting point is 01:23:27 He's like, all right. He's like, do you want me to wait? I was like, okay. And he just took a nap in his car while I hiked a mountain. Took a picture, hiked back down. He was there, drove me back. It was great. And then you went back on the airport and back to Vegas?
Starting point is 01:23:48 No, I never went back to Vegas. That was the end. It was the last day of the festival. Yeah, you posted a photo from the mountains in your Skank Fest shirt, and it crushed. It went locally viral amongst all of us who knew what it happened. You missed, like, a huge opportunity where you and Tommy were supposed to be on Tim Dillon's podcast. You're in Colorado because you put on a show about the mountains and decided you had to see that. Well, dude, what happened was we took the drugs and then it was all the boys, like, in a booth together in the green room.
Starting point is 01:24:19 And it was great. I was like, I had a corner seat. I was like, this is going to be great. We're just going to chill her to talk. And then, like, right as they started kicking in, everyone just, like, got up and wandered away. Oh. And then I was like, I can't wander around Vegas.
Starting point is 01:24:34 You should have wandered with me, dude. I was standing on a bridge, and we're on Fremont Street. Wait, was it acid or mushrooms? It was actually Molly. It was Monty. I was just standing on top of, like, a little bridge looking at Fremont Street, which objectively sucks in Vegas. And I was just standing there with Mike Cannon and other comic.
Starting point is 01:24:52 And I was like, this is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. We were a gay. I mean, credit to you, Chris, you called your shot, being like, my brain goes crazy. I knew it was coming for me, too, because when I flew in, we flew over the Rockies. And you were like, I have to have that. I want that bad. And then I got, so after I listened to a little bit about China, I turned on the Ken Burns National Parks documentary. And I can't.
Starting point is 01:25:19 Yeah, that drives me crazy. Chris loves the mountains. He has this book. You taught me about this. You have this book, and it's one guy draws every ski map. Yeah. That's crazy. Chris loves topography, underwater or overland.
Starting point is 01:25:33 That's why I couldn't let go of that MEP Jeff. Map Jeff Island. Holy shit. So was it worth it? Oh, yeah, it was great. It was so, it's so nice. You get up there. The only other people up there were some old couple that happened to be from, like, New Jersey.
Starting point is 01:25:48 Oh, that's a sick book. Yeah. Another James. I don't even ski. Yeah, you don't realize it, but every ski map was drawn by this one guy. He's so good. Holy shit. He's so good.
Starting point is 01:25:59 It's amazing. You just look at them? Yeah. Chris is really good at guessing depths. Like when I first met you, it was with Santino. And we were taking a boat, and he would just quiz Chris on how deep he thought it was, and he was always pretty much right. Yeah. Based on what?
Starting point is 01:26:14 How do you even predict? Just feeling. I know what the thing. I asked you if you were feeling. feeling it when you were at the airport and you said I was going through security and I could feel it in my teeth Yeah
Starting point is 01:26:29 taking off was nuts nuts Did you sleep on the flight or were you just rolling? I was rolling pretty bad That's pretty bad and I think I got like a quick nap right before we landed so then I woke up and it was just like
Starting point is 01:26:49 oh boy Oh shit That's so great though Yeah I love them out I did go to Telluride Because my lady's cat died Oh what You want to connect those dots
Starting point is 01:27:02 Yeah what We were like the cat The cat died We were like in the house She was having a really hard time And I was like let's just get the fuck out of here Where do you want to go I just picked a place on a map
Starting point is 01:27:12 I thought like maybe the cat was from Teller Ride Yeah I thought I always wanted It's not a lot It's like your solution Very uncomfortable is the mountain It, dude, it's cleansing. Yeah, it is.
Starting point is 01:27:23 The mountains. You got to get a place. Yeah, well, I've got some work to do for it. Maybe just a tent. I don't know. I do. You get a place, I'll visit. You guys don't go to the mountains?
Starting point is 01:27:37 I don't. I do. I love mountains. I'm a Tahoe guy. Tahoe's awesome. Yeah. Tell your ride is fucking sweet. We do that the golf event in Tahoe in the summer.
Starting point is 01:27:49 It's literally like heaven. Tahoe is bad. Every day is the perfect weather. Yeah. Perfect things to look at. Dude, and it feels like, I don't know. You can just wake up and like walk up a mountain and just not be fat. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:28:03 Yeah. It's right outside. You just like, you grab a coffee, walk up it, walk down. You're like, all right. Yeah. I'm good. Yeah. Flipside, what's also great in Tahoe is sitting on a beach, pounding 10 drinks and getting fat.
Starting point is 01:28:15 So you can kind of take it any way you want. But that's what they all do. They do they walk up. mountain they come down and you can have a million beers yeah it's all like old people having happy hour yeah yeah after paddleboarding yeah yeah life should we all move to Tahoe yeah why not yak to fuck it yeah what's what's go with Reno not much I don't think is that a nice place no you fly into Reno to go to Tahoe I know that it's like a much worse Vegas yeah yes much press considerably worse
Starting point is 01:28:49 it's like casinos but not in a fun way yeah yeah which actually is fun it's cool and bad casinos are fun in their own right yeah how do they fuck that up being by Tahoe I don't know I think that like the well people just go to Tahoe
Starting point is 01:29:07 yeah like you get you land and you just go to Tahoe some people like it like I've heard you know you can live in Reno and you live near an airport and you can get a bunch of space it's kind of cheap and you can be close to Tahoe but If you're going there for a vacation, it's like just the casinos aren't good. There's nothing really good. You know.
Starting point is 01:29:26 Yeah. It's just if you want a Vegas experience, you go to Vegas. If you want a Tahoe experience, you go to Tahoe. And then there's just, you know, sitting there. Stuck there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:29:37 It seems like people who like got, you know, we're mining for gold years ago and then just never left. Yeah. Got to get to the mountains, boys. It's so fucking big. Yeah, they are. So big. Have you been to Alaska? You're so poor.
Starting point is 01:29:50 You've got to do it. I know. I would love to see, was it Denali? Denali, dude. Get you away for that. I was just watching a video about some guys that died on Denali. Is it worth climbing mountains like that? Hell no.
Starting point is 01:30:04 Yeah. Everest isn't worth it, right? No, Everest stinks. Everest is, yeah. Everest is cool, like 30 years. Yeah, yeah. Now there's just making a Nepalese traffic. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:30:15 It's actual. You're in a huge line to stand at the top for like two seconds. And then you die. And then you die. Maybe die. There's something satisfying about it though. Like not Everest, but like smaller mountains. When you get to the top, you are like, hey.
Starting point is 01:30:29 Oh, it's great. You feel good about yourself. Yeah. But like if someone says they climb Mount Everest, are you impressed anymore? I feel like it used to be like, holy shit. If they did it with no oxygen, then I'm impressed. I'm still very much. Nah, I'm not impressed at all.
Starting point is 01:30:42 No oxygen's kind of nuts. But yeah, if I was in that line and the weather started rolling in, I'd be throwing people off that mountain. Freaking out. Yeah. Bad place to freak out. Do we have this guy on the Zoom? I don't know. I don't think so. Did anybody hear about Danny's
Starting point is 01:31:00 night last night? Oh, shit. Text him right now. We've got to get him on Zoom real quick. We're going to end this show a little early because we had to do our Christmas special, but we got to get Danny on Zoom. What happened? Our co-host was meeting his girlfriend's parents for the first time last night. His girlfriend works at Barstool. They...
Starting point is 01:31:16 Okay. The stool beach house is when they consummated their relationship. And the most embarrassing part, he has no livestock to offer. Yeah. So we brought that up on Monday's show, and we ran through scenarios of what he should and shouldn't do. And I wonder how it went. We said don't say he's a sex pest.
Starting point is 01:31:35 No, we said say. Oh, yeah, say you're a sex pest, right? Yeah. Reformed. And ask the dad if permission to hit the back wall. To go deep. Yeah. I've only been given her half.
Starting point is 01:31:48 Is she foldable because it's hard for me to get there? Sir, I'm a bit old school. I want to ask you. Is this the kind of mistake you would genuinely make? No. No. But. But maybe.
Starting point is 01:32:06 We're making it uncomfortable for him. Yeah. I wonder if he dropped the C-bomb on him. Cunt? No. Her daughter has a lovely cunt. Can I say that? I feel like we're close.
Starting point is 01:32:18 Sometimes your daughter's a cunt. I got to say it. I got to tell you. He's eggnogers. Dad. No, he beat cancer in high school. He had cancer for like two years. And he does not use it enough.
Starting point is 01:32:32 Like dropping it on people being like, yeah, I beat cancer. Right. So we're like, dude, just say it. Like, people will. You got to use that. I would lead with that. Oh, out of birth. No, no, you save that.
Starting point is 01:32:42 I think I was going to say you holster that for like when you're getting screamed at. And then you're like, I'm sorry. Yeah. I've been a little on edge since I began to. Yeah. Oh, you want me to take out the trash? You just pull back your shirt to show a ribbon. I wish I had it as easy as you.
Starting point is 01:33:01 Yeah, you got to save your powder, especially when you met on the beach house. It's a non-traditional. Yeah, their entire relationship has been very public. Yeah, that's got to be brutal. You guys are pretty tough about it in here. Yeah. Yeah. Except when she's here, then we just fold.
Starting point is 01:33:17 We're just like, we're so sorry. Why, what's, what's being? I didn't see any of it. What's going on with it? Oh, it's very normal. Yeah. As normal as it could be, I guess. I just meant you're tough about everyone.
Starting point is 01:33:31 We make personal life the second you learn something. Yeah. In general. Except our own. Oh, yeah. I mean, who wants that? Right. Yeah.
