How about let's talk about this Puma Alternate Red Eddie George we got going on here I don't know if I told you about it or not But this is the one This is one of the grails. Pure sex. Just read. This is pure sex on HBO.

Look at this shit, dude. Golly, dude. I don't know. I've wanted it all my life. I think about it every night. I mean, ah! Dude, that all-time secondary logo. There's only a couple.

There's some teams that have better secondary logos than the primary logos. I think this might be one of them. The sword that's a T? Dude, I mean, they were in their, the Tennessee Titans were in their bag when they redesign. Do you remember that? The Tennessee Titans, the Tennessee Titans were Andrew Nimhard game one on SGA.

Do you, do, do, do, do step back, bang. That's what they were right there. Just everything about it. Just this, this thing on the sleeves, first time you saw that, what? the flame on the helmet the light blue the white helmet and then all of a sudden this is just in the window at foot action

I'm like a red the way I didn't even ask my mom for it no hey hey hey I had it so sick bro you little bitch I think it was like sick

I think it was my birthday present when I turned eight. So jealous of you, bro. Eddie George, just the running, the running back that you created on Madden. Eddie George. He always ended up looking like Eddie George. Oh, for sure. The four, what's that

facemask called? Two bar. Two bar robot. Hey, plug mouthpiece, just cause. Spats, still faster than everybody. Six, seven. Who's tackling him? It's crazy that you just make that guy's speed 99.

When you create a player, I'm like, it's kind of unfair a little bit. Like, I didn't earn it at all. It just made up for it because we were never going to be able to do it in real life. And that's the whole point of a video game is we can fantasize and play it that way. That's me. Dude, getting a jersey every year for your birthday. Just like, what was that? I remember my birthday simply by the jersey that I got that.

Yes, dude, you are, you had a great life. You had a great life. That is, dude, that is a dream, dude. Just, just pulling trig on like a Dante Hall yellow chiefs. Like, just, that's amazing, dude. Seven years old, the white Titans Eddie George Jersey. Eight years old, the red alternate joint that you got on right there. Nine years old, red Michael Vick went on a big red kick.

I think 10 years old Red Omar Garcia Parra Red Sox I've never smiled so hard My life It's just Bro Hey that Falcons jersey bro

On the cover of Madden I'm telling you There's just nothing cleaner Just Oh dude He was hey he was running He was holding it like the bridge Clean

boy crazy you're getting Titans jerseys though when they always played the Steelers and it was always like a heated rivalry just saying you're a fake you're a fake fan I was seven years old as Eddie freaking George can we get a minute can we get a minute on Aaron Rogers can we get a minute on Steelers situation then we'll get to the emails minute minute minute clock them clock them oh man

yeah here we go got a lot of we got a lot of DMs and text about it what can you do it as somebody maybe please No, no. This is Molinar. This is Molinar. That is who I'm doing it as. It'll probably inevitably end up merging into Kuiper a little bit. But anyway.

I didn't want to say it. There we go. Got a bunch of texts, got a bunch of Instagram messages about it from Clubhouse to different friends. And look, dude, all it is, all this is, all it is is a vast waste of nothingness. That's going to be disguised as another miraculous, fabulous. fabulous job by Mike Tomlin. Oh, how does he get it?

How does he make it happen? How does he make it work with this old quarterback and this roster? Oh, you mean the quarterback that he vouched for? You mean the roster that he put together? Oh, yeah. And that's going to happen. They're going to go 10 and 7. They're going to go 9 and 8.

They're going to go into playoffs. They're going to limp down the stretch. Like we've seen the past seven years in a row. They're going to get their asses handed to him. And it's going to be, oh, Rich Eisen and Joy Taylor telling you how lucky you, are that Mike Tomlin's your head coach and that oh man you don't know how good you have it. Yeah, we have it so good that nine years to get our fucking dick kicked in every single year and get talked about how freaking lucky we are the situation that we have. My ass.

What if they get Terry McLaren though? Not going to happen. It's all a contract ploy to get him to get a better deal in Washington because why would he want to leave Jaden Daniels and what they got going on there to come over to freaking Mike T. Limpin it out there and rolling the ball out with whatever old hag washed up quarterback you can get so you can stay in the thick of things and talk about how

we're chasing trophies. Yeah. My ass, dude. Tommy Maddox. Oh, I did want to point out. Well, cool. Two things. Prima for me. So next Wednesday, June 18th, Vice TV, Sports Gone Wrong.

The boy is the narrator of that whole series. And the premiere is June 18th, Wednesday, 9 p.m. on Vice TV. Really fun, like documentary style show. That's just like highlights all kinds of different messed up stuff that's happened in all different kinds of sports. You learn about like the history of streaking. You go through injuries. We touch on the mouse at the palace.

It's a 10-week run. It's a 10-episode run. So it premieres episode one, June 18th. Wednesday, Vice TV, 9 p.m. Give it a tune in. Check it out. Because you hear your voice, your stroke meter. You hear your boy's voice throughout. So really, really excited about that.

That's coming out on Vice TV Wednesday, June 18th. Saw the promo. Looks sick. History of streaking. That's what I want to talk about. Yeah. There's a whole bunch of stuff that like you know about. But then it really, we tell you about, you know, the origin and the way, the history of it.

And you're like, oh, wow. That, I knew about it. I didn't know it went down like that. And it's a very, like, John Sally's in it. Jess Smentana from the Levitard show. Godfrey, the comedian. Oh, sick lineup. Yeah.

So they all are like the commentators, the talking heads. And then I'm the one that, you know, Andrew goes the show and has a commentary that takes you story to story and gives you the background and every. and everything. Yeah, so it's really, really proud of it and really excited about it. Schmitty on vocals. Yeah.

So that's coming up. And then, yeah, real quick. So, dude, crazy. So Sunday night, because we record on Mondays, comes out on Tuesdays. So Sunday night was game two, the NBA finals. And one of my buddies has a basement. And he calls it the boom. bar.

And you saw it on my Instagram story, I posted about it, but it's fully themed all Pacers, a little bit of fever, but it's sick, right? It's this awesome setup. Burpy boy, whoa. And he's been having watch parties over there for this Pacer's run. So that's my first time that I've gotten to go over there. Just because I was busy and there were eight and no without me and I wasn't going to mess it up because I'm superstitious like that.

And so I didn't go. And so I finally went for game two. Didn't work out. probably won't go back, but, um, I'm sitting there and this dude comes down, shows up to the watch party, and his name's Bailey. And I was like, oh, what's up, Bailey? You know, it's Joey, nice to meet you, you know, whatever. And then I get an Instagram message later that night and was like, yo, dude, not your fault. Don't put that on you for how the Pacers played because you're at the BBB, the boom baby bar. And it's from our dude, Bay.

who emails in all the time and who is in who messages both of us on Instagram texts on Instagram it's that Bailey and I had no idea I was like dude why did why did you say anything oh shit dude yeah say something dog damn I was like to make us you have to make a scene about it but he could just been like hey Joey yo clubhouse man and I'd be like Bailey or he couldn't not bad for a fat guy be like oh my got it would put the dots to go so much. Instead, I'm just sitting there. Probably thinks I'm such a dick because I'm like depressed that the Pacers are getting their ass kicked. You know, I'm like not even saying anything. You guys were just in the same room? Yeah. In the same watch party in this basement,

the boom baby bar. God got to figure that one out because the inside jokes would have been cracking if you would have known. I know. But I just wanted to give some some quick props to Bailey in that funny situation we found ourselves in. But yeah, regular email or regular listener. And sorry that I didn't put two and two together and that you probably think I'm an asshole now. Wow. Dude, that drive home for him?

I'm never listening to that podcast again. I didn't even say shit. All right. Pacers lose it. All right, I'll shut the, I'll shut up. No, no, no, no, no. I want to hear. I want to hear.

Pacers lose and Sunday. I mean, what, what? Two words the rest of the night. Brutal, man. Cubs had already lost that day, too. These guys even watch sports. The only saving grace was that

we celebrated my dad's birthday. His 54th birthday, the day that we're recording here. So happy birthday to you, Dad. But we went back to his house on Sunday before all that. And mom made chocolate cake with white icing and chocolate chip cookies.

Was there ice cream? Sorry, I'm not excited or anything. No ice cream. Got a big lactose family. A lot of lactose problems. Gastatational or gastational know about this problem. Gastrotation

Gastrotational station problems. Gastation know about this? Station about the gassy problem and Moulnard's family? Station, how about that? Dude, oh my God. Puts a piece of cake in front of you on a table. Station out about this?

Holy shit. Does the station know about that? Stationing, you went camping? The amount of messages I got when I put that, it was like, hey, no show this week. I'm in Tennessee. Station, know you're in Tennessee? I was like, yes!

Somebody just sent me a big ass, like, drink from a gas station all the way filled up and go, Station now about this? Like a polar pop and that's it. Station now? Station had no idea about that. Back to Bailey. You know, I pop in a Zen. Just poke your head around.

Station out by that, yeah. Oh, oh. Dude, imagine if you would have waited, like, even, like, later on, like, till halftime. You'd have been like, what? That's like, that's like, uh, usual suspects. That's, that's like one of those reveals in a movie where you're like, yeah, jaw dropping moment. I see dead people.

Station how about that Zen? Directed by Amn Knight Shamelon. Station how about that Zen? Station, oh, you pop that in? Pacer Nation, know about this? All right. Let's get to, uh, yeah, because we, missed last week and we got we got a bunch of mail from the clubhouse so we're just going to dive right

in you meet johnson a whole lot of fun after this um let's do it team these guys at gmail dot com catching up um this is from charlie title east bay archive oh my god joey and benny short email that i hope makes tuesday's pod just was on instagram and stumbled upon east bay archive on IG. Wonder if I follow it. Or if you, if not, let me put you guys onto it.

Lots of potential screenshots for wallpapers for Benny on there. I can smell the pages and I've already ruined my iPhone circling things I want in black Sharpie. Slat my ass with a soggy East Bay magazine after I accidentally spilled milk on it for my breakfast cereal bowl before the last day of school

where I don't have to bring my backpack and I know I'm coming home with bloody knees and an NEPPAS rating from PEE football. Charlie. old bloody knees bloody knees through the school pants not a lot of people not a lot of station know about that

dude yeah I've had a couple of those little blood dots just two blood dots on the knee what's up I was going hard at kickball put some cold water on it it did dude it did you felt like you felt like a real warrior just bloody knee dude social studies

seventh period what's up I'm kind of a badass what's up uh what's up nat you checking out this bloody knee you see my bloody knee ask me what happened hey Alyssa you don't know how I got this bloody knee two sacks what's up did the Javon curse in the backfield

I was always so amazed that Javon curse could hold an entire ruler I hate that that story just crushed all my dreams of being an NFL player. From his middle finger to his thumb could just hold the whole roller. It might have been the moment my dreams

vanished. Oh yeah, Javon Curse's hand. It's the size of a folded newspaper. I was like, let's just go to grandmas this weekend. I'm ready to eat some cookies. I guess I should read more. I need to find a passion.

I need to find a passion. Yeah. Yeah, Charlie, East Bay Archive. Me and Ben have sent that to each other a few times. Probably the Eddie George. Would the Eddie George alternate make it in East Bay magazine? There's a lot of really good alternates. I don't know what year that would be.

Maybe like 2000, like I don't know. Like 2004, maybe. But a 102 is kind of that era of Titans. Yeah. Yeah. But there's a lot. The really old East Bay magazines just felt like the Wild West. They were just throwing everything.

They had no rules. And then East Bay kind of got a little more corporate, like as we got older, kind of sad to see on those archives. It went from like, oh my God, I can't believe they're selling that to like, this is just a Dick Sporting Goods magazine. I don't know.

Kind of sad. Kind of like everything else. You know, I mean, you see like what Taco Bell and McDonald's used to look like and what it is now. What all of these professional sports teams logos used to look like. College team logos used to look like as compared to now. It is a sad state of affairs. I hope we swing the pendulum back. Please go crazy.

Who just got a new, someone got a new something. The magic. Oh, yeah. What do you think? The white, pure, the blue, solid, the black was a little too Mickey Mouse for me, pun intended. Yeah, I'll hurry up. But it all made sense to me to the fact that they couldn't use their original font

because, like, somebody else has the rights to it. So I was like, oh, okay. Still could have been a lot cooler. But I like the black because it looks like they're old. warm ups they used to have. Like you ever see that? You ever see that like when Shaq had it on? He was like playing Jordan one-on-one and he was like wearing that.

I think that's what they did with that. But I guess it's pretty good. I don't know. Could be. Why are they always better on the internet? Like two days later, somebody's like, why didn't they just do this? I'm like, I don't know. Hindsight's always 2020, man.

So it's exactly what I was going to say. And I didn't say it because I knew you'd make fun of me. from Ryan Johnson, Schmitty and Brian Cushing. These guys, keep the episodes coming, boys. I recently found this five second clip that pretty much sums up what this podcast is.

Johnson and Schmitty jokes and 2000s football players attached below. Also, what's the best lie your parents ever told you growing up? Mine was that Mountain Dew was illegal. So I kind of think it is. And then if you leave the house without turning the lights off, you get arrested.

Curious to see what you guys have to say. Let's go, sirs. Dolphins Brandon Marshall. That's funny. God dang, Dolphins, Brandon Marshall's unstoppable. And also, was he in the Broncos? Yeah. And he was on the Bears.

And he was good on every team? Brandon Marshall on the Broncos, I believe he broke the record for most receptions in a game with like 22 against the Colts in Indianapolis. Pro is just a dog forever? Kind of a problem, though, too. Hey, Brandon Marshall from? Damn.

Is it UCF? Ding, ding, ding. Nice. Is it? Oh, that's a scary one. Hot, hot, hot. Your boy went out on a limb. What a dog.

Hey, Brandon Marshall, respect that he always just had the single bar. I do love that. It's so wide receiver one. Hey, was he number 15? Oh, yeah. If you would have been like in the 80s, dude, yeah, you got to respect receivers just with the OG face mask.

The football face mask, just one bar. All right, let me, I download this clip. Let me see if you can, you probably won't be able to hear it. I don't know,

maybe you will. Did you hear that? This guy, yeah, I heard that. Pretty, pretty good. That's awesome.

pretty good. He has no filter. Station about Brian Cushing's forehead, leaking blood. Stational about Brian Cushing's American flag cleats? Station about his triceps? American flag

cleats, dude. Oh my God. That whole era of Under Armour American flagged stuff I was like, I got to I got to go to a different country. This is crazy. Deport me. Texans.

Texans with Brian Cushing and JJ Watt. Hey, every mom loves you guys. Just the whitest, meanest team. Hey, we know who you voted for. The Texans with J.J.

Watt and Brian Cushing. Jesus Christ. Hey, you're the bullies in every Disney movie. Got it. Hey, did your dads have guns? in the house when you were growing up. Hey, your dad owned a car dealership.

Okay. Your dad's name was on the press box. We got it. We got it. We got it. We got it. We got it. All right.

The best lie. This is fun. I don't think we've ever, I don't think anybody's ever asked this question. Great question, dude. Great question. And both of your parents' ones are very funny. Mountain two illegal and you get arrested.

If you don't turn the lights. Kind of seen. legit. If you're 10 Mountain Dew's illegal, I'd be like, I mean, yeah, have you seen it? Looks kind of illegal. Lights on in the house. Like, that's just some like grown up rule stuff you don't know. So you're just like, I mean, they're probably

right. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I got a good one. Go. My parents told us my mom's told me

my mom told me and my sister she was allergic to cats. my dad told me and my sisters he was allergic to dogs so we couldn't have any pets everybody you know because when you're a kid you always just want a dog

you know what I mean like every kid ever has been like I want a dog but we're just like yeah we can't get one dude mom and dad they're both like well played our friends at school you don't have a pet

nah parents are allergic yeah I sorry me and you were the only kids growing up that didn't have a dog yeah every other friend Big ass golden retriever Late to the party on dogs

Okay It's kind of a relief Well that's what I was about to say is that every kid wants a dog And then the parents immediately say no And then they just back up playing to a cat They don't even want the cat They just want something They're just like but it's easier right

You don't have to walk a cat You don't have to It's all it dude cats are such backup plans Nobody's been like cat first option. Never. You're always like getting ready for a dog. Cat might be like the stepping stone. Cat might be your Cincinnati

and then when you make the move to Power 5, you know what I mean? The only person that asked for a cat first is the girl that was obsessed with horses in middle school. Oh, she's cat first? Yeah. The one that like wanted to end up going to then be a vet.

Too many animals, yeah. Mine was similar to... Mine also had to do with lights. And it wasn't with the house. It was in the car. Parents and lights, bro. Get over it. You couldn't have...

If it was nighttime when you were driving, you couldn't have a light on, the ceiling light on in the car. Either in the front or in the back, wherever you couldn't have it. Or they said that if a cop saw it, they pull them over and you get a ticket or worse. Yeah. It does seem a little like a little risky.

Like it could impair your vision or something like that. Right. So I get that part, but I'm pretty sure that my wife, like when we were dating, she was the first person to tell me, what are you talking about? Oh. Is it? Really? You can have the light on the car when it's nighttime.

That's allowed? dude you're gonna love this my dad drives with that on at night time just like dude early early early morning like you know your dad's got to take you to the airport or pick you up early for something it's still dark outside my dad one of them on not both but just one I'm like you turning that off he's like I kinda

kinda like it a little mood lighting in the car yeah a little bit too dark hey try it try it try it does feel good Like he turned it off just because he was like, all right, turned it off. And I was like, turn that back on. Like, damn. I was like, now it's like really, really depressing in here. It's a little fireside, a little fireside combo, but in the car. Yeah.

A little night light. So you, so riding to school in the morning in like December, January, February when it's dark as sin outside. So dark in the morning, dude. I forgot about that. But he would have that on, but he would have that on? Yeah. It's nice, dude. It's like a little party. Dude, the car's a party.

Hey, but when it started getting lighter and warmer as you went on the school year, that was absolutely insane. Last day of school, I was like, oh, okay. Oh, my God. Last day of school smell, first day of spring break smell. You know it. You know it when you smell it. When you step outside to this day, you can be 45, you could be 28, you can be 62.

You step outside and late May at like 701 a.m. You smell it. Smell it. Hey, you know what I hate? First day of school smell. Smells all. Get it together. Let's go.

Uh-huh. You got your number two pencil? Everything felt so rigid on the first day of school, bro. I was so over it. We probably have homework today already. Oh, I just got a little bit of chill, man. Hey, but when you're at that last day school, the smell, ooh, it smells kind of like, smells kind of fun, smells kind of like, what were you going to say? Smells like a pool party.

Yeah, it does, like sun tan lotion in the air. School isn't supposed to smell like this. And then you walk down the hallway and the desks are outside. And one are, they're on top of the, you know what I mean? They're stacked and the legs are in there. I'm like, this bitch is over. Hey, hey, hey, you slide across the, you slide across the tile floor in your classroom,

like you're messy after he scores a goal. Bro, what's this bitch? I hope Mrs. Williams is in the hallway. The last three days of school, you're sitting in a totally different spot in your classroom. Oh, yeah, my desk is just on top of the vent in the back now. Nothing matters, bro. Me and Tyler, bro.

Yeah, we've just been chilling here for three days. It's so sick, bro. just trying to see the amount that you can get away with. No one's toe in the line more than the last three days of school. I walked around the school for seven hours, bro. No one said anything. Just laps. That is a fun time when you just take a lap in your old school.

Oh, yeah. Just walking by the third grade classrooms. Looking indoors. That little window. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Weirdo. face in there?

Yeah, dude. Get like two laughs. Not even. Get in trouble. All right. This is from Ken. Another East Bay. RIP East Bay.

Hey, boys, second time writing in. I'm the guy whose wife said your podcast sounds like, quote, two friends in the backseat talking about nothing on a road trip. So good, bro. Both big fans now. Love you, Ken and Mrs.

Ken. I think about that every day. Did you ever have a time in high school when you had the perfect class schedule? I was a public school kid who had blocked scheduling four 90-minute classes a day and think I peaked in the fall of my senior year when I took Italian one, a study hall,

aka breakfast, and two gym classes, which was just dodge-bought to end my day. Did your school give you any say in how you wanted to take classes or was it a more traditional approach? Love the show. Hope to see you guys in Philly sometime.

If not, maybe me and the wife will make a trip out to Indy for these. guys live pod wouldn't hate it. I love you, bro. God damn. I love you. Thank you. We had Chris and his wife from Jersey. We had Austin and his wife from Ohio. I mean, I'm just saying, tap during Christmas. Do it again, do it again. Um, great, great. Man, this question just can't do with East Bay and of us talking about nothing about school. Same pod. Great, great question. Um, Italian also. Jesus. What fucking. What school did you go to?

Zoe 101? Yeah, your school is definitely outside. Your lockers were outside. You had outlet mall school. Outlet mall school. Dude, school's on TV. I'm like, get out of here, man. Ain't no way.

Just eating lunch in the fucking commons outside with nobody around. Colorful background. Everything's so fun, so fresh, so, new. We're living in this dusty dungeon of a school. With like, prison. With like a boardroom of teachers and faculty sitting above us watching our every move like it's 1984. God, man. We've got the president's cabinet up here looking down on us. Jesus. And then they're over there and God knows where California all have brazenes.

in their hair. Fresh old navy clothes. Kins just eating pasta and breadsticks, learning Italian. Okay. And then study hall, then gym, then gym? Go to hell. That's really tough to be. That's really tough to be. I think I feel pretty damn good about my first semester senior year lineup. We didn't have the block classes. My wife had the same thing. She had like, I forget where they do like half days or they'd have like, Tuesday and Thursday off or something because they do like four two hour classes on Monday, Wednesday, Friday. I don't know.

That wasn't how it was for us. It always confused me. And I'm glad we never did it kind of. Yeah. Because the block classes, the classes were like two hours. Can't do that. Jesus Christ, man. Can't do that.

But then also way too much freedom for our dumbass. Like you just have Tuesday and Thursday as just like half days or off days because you you did Monday, Wednesday, Friday when you're eight. Stupid, stupid stuff. Yeah. I had, okay, so I started. So my start was a little, a bit of a rude awakening, okay? I had English, like English three or whatever, first period.

Not bad, not bad, not bad. I had to kind of lock in, but, you know, we're doing like some Gatsby and some like, all right stuff. Teacher was pretty cool. You know, you do vocab. Not bad. English is always so doable though It's like that hard Class but you're like who can't pass

English like who can't get a B Right it's not math or science Which for me for us probably Yeah I was like my brain works more in the English way Than it does in the math and science English is a nice class bro Always kind of like a it's just English Like a little break almost Vocab will save you

Just do the vocab homework and they do well on the test, everything else is fine. Big cheat class, dude. English. Cheating on everything. Everything that comes across my desk, what's for? And you didn't even have to hide it. You'd be like, dog, let me, dude.

Because the way ours is set up is we were in rows and you're like this close together, but then also there was computers in front of you. So you had a natural blocker. Fire. Fire, bro. Everybody had a full. back.

She studied for that test. Now I got Lorenzo Neal in front of me. What's going on? I'm good. Yeah. I mean, what are we talking about? So I had English first period.

Fire. Fire. Second period. Second period was religion. Oh, another easy one, bro. Religion's like, okay.

God told me to. I don't know. what the answer is. Right. Third period was office assistant. Shut up. Shut up. Yeah.

You could only take in special circumstances or when you were senior because you've done all your other shit. And so it was just like a filler credit course. So what you do is you'd sit in the front office area. It was a study hall. And then the office administrator lady would be like, Joey, can you run this note down to room 203? Oh, I get to do laps around the school now and go.

Yeah. Try to dick around with my friends. Okay. Boom. There you go. No problem. Right. Then I could come back and get all my homework done that I didn't do the night before for periods four through seven.

Bro. That's my homework period. Dream. Dream morning so far. Station, how about that? Office assistant third. Choir fourth. Get out of town, bro.

Are we hearing this right now? Oh my God. into announcements. That was a 20 minute homework period that you could do. Our school had 20 minutes of announcements. It was just like a free period for everybody. Announcements was butter, bro.

The things I was doing during announcements. Right into fifth period luncheon channel one. Oh my God. I can't get any better in this. So my whole first semester from second period through six period, I was like, I'm just having a time of my life. I mean, I'm doing whatever. I want to do. How'd you

pull that, dude? You start to feel guilty and stuff. I don't know. I'm not learning anything. And I'm like, I'm kind of a piece of shit. My parents are paying for this. Whoops. I'm a piece of shit. Yeah. My parents are paying for me to just sit around.

I remember I was like sleeping as an office assistant sometimes. And then they had to pull me to aside. They're like, hey, like this is kind of the front window of the school. So like when people come in and just see you sleeping like that's a bad look it's like ah well i hate it because it i don't have anything else to do and i'm tired but also fair point you guys got like a back room then hey this is avery there just let me go slump out the cot the cot the cot let me get cozy 1054 a m farting and

shit. Hey, a 12 minute nap in school, never better 12 minutes to sleep in your life. That's a four hour nap in real life. 12 minutes in school. How am I getting away with this? How am I getting away with it? Twelve minutes in school, dude, that'll get you, that'll keep you up for the next three days. You're just, mm-hmm. What about you? Do you have any of those? Good schedules? Yeah. I don't know how you remembered that honestly. That was very impressive. Because it was so fun. I was just like, this is the best fall of my life. I remember a couple times I had APC or PE going right into lunch.

Yeah, it's dangerous. Nice back to back there. Real dangerous. Remember one year I had PE first period. Didn't really know how I would work out, but it saved a lot of days, I think. Because you're just getting up and getting going. Like the rest of the day, I was like, charged. I was like, I felt like I got like a workout in.

Yeah. Good tone setter, man. Set the tone, man. Sorry. Skip. Hey, freshman year, my freshman year, I had PE eighth period. So I essentially had a 50 minute shorter day than everybody else besides everybody who's in there. Was I the assistant?

You were the assistant. For some reason, I was like, this feels kind of like is hitting home. I like that a lot when they said eighth period, P.E. assistant. I was like, I'm not doing shit. Oh, man. I'm out of that. Yeah, clubhouse. So that's another Johnson-Schmidt origin story.

I know people ask a lot and we told you that we grew up together, went to the same schools and everything. But I was a freshman and Ben was a senior. And at our school, again, kind of like the office assistant, you could do like PE assistant when you were just senior and you just kind of like fill credit time. And so I was taking PE as a freshman

and then he was one of the assistants in that class. So you know, nothing going on. Just BS and the birthplace of some Johnson and Schmidtie bits right there. I'm trying to think. I think you were kind of good at Ultimate Frisbee for some reason.

Because I'm like, what did we I know we talked? I know he talked. I can't. I think I might have been on your team or something for Ultimate Frisbee. I can't remember. or maybe that was a lapse I'd do his laps oh yo those are very underestimated because those are

difficult especially if you dude I got I had a dude in my freshman PE that would always try to like beat me and I'd be like damn I got to try like I was just kind of like jogging it out

like I wasn't like last or first but I was like you know top of the top five but just not trying and then Homeboy started like racing me so I was like oh my god not to be yeah

tough dude tough waking up every morning now now I gotta beat this kid in a race every day like Jesus crin sign up for this shit it's just PE we had an all-star lineup too Baker Andy Ward Heckman

yeah I walked in I was like this class is sick oh that's when I realized Andy Ward was so funny dude every day every day I was like this dude It is so, like, every day I was like this motherfucker, because I'd walk in, dude, you guys just be like, what did you do today? That was like illegal probably. Yeah. Every day you guys had something cooking.

I was like, I like this a lot. Good squad, good squad, good squad, good squad. This is from Gregory. Dennis Northcutt. It says, Jake for Sincy. Go ahead. Where'd he go to college? Ooh, why do I feel like it was like Northern Iowa?

Yeah, it's something weird. I'll look it up. Go ahead. Okay. What's up, boys? I've been listening following for years. First time emailing. I wanted to take you back to 11-year-old pee-wee football.

In a blowout game, I took the wingback tossed 30 yards from my first TD, spiked that baby with all I had, refed through the flag, and coach let me have it. Get back to the car after the game, and instead of my dad being excited, he ripped into me about the spike.

Try to tell him, quote, I swear I didn't spike it. I just dropped it. Bro wasn't having it. Either of you have a celebration that went too far. P.S., does a station know about the Andre Carolinko choosing number 47 and forever being remembered as AK-47? Hardest nickname of all time. Sent from Sam...

Thank you. Sent from my Samsung. Jake. Dude gets it. Yep. Great first email, Gregory. Thanks. Or Jake.

I don't know why your email shown up is that new Jake. Anyways. Actually, I actually played NBA... 2K10 the other night on PS2 and played with the jazz and Andre Karolinko was on there. Anyways, where did Dennis Northcutt go? Arizona.

Oh. That's one that you, that's a tough one, bro. Tough pole. Yeah, it is. But we'll remember it locked into the vault now forever.

Yeah, maybe. Um, yep. I, one time, we were playing. we were playing a school that like wasn't that good

I don't know and I was like if I if I break one if I know I'm talking I'm talking eighth grade I was like if I break one I'm celebrating I don't care and I think my girlfriend at the time is at the game so I was like dude I'm trying to ball out like and I kind of know these guys and they're not that good like this is like low key a scrimmage but it's a real game

OLG So OLG Ro Kind of the school I should have gone to Because I lived there But I went to

Our school So I was like Dude this is kind of a wash And I knew I was gonna score And I was like Dude from 20 yards out I just did I just did one of these

Like the whole way Just like maybe it was this Just a whole way In the end of Really? Well, like while running. I didn't want to do anything too crazy. Because I was like my dad's at the game.

Like he's going to get mad at me. But I was like, I can do something subtle. And I saw somebody low-key on his team do this when he coached. So I was like, maybe you won't care because he already saw it. You know? And I was like, all right, cool. No flags. Through it to the ref.

Dude, the coach on the sideline just buried me. Just rip me, dude. And I don't think I played well the rest of the game because of that. Like, I didn't feel like trying anymore. I was like, bro, if you're not going to like be excited, like, damn. Right. I just took it to the house at 42 yards. What it would, what?

42. Yeah. And I was like, I get getting tackled in the backfield after that. I was like, this sucks, dude. Just so check that out. I don't want to play anymore. Yeah, I didn't have one. I didn't have one that was a post.

celebration. I had one that was a pre-celebration. So, freshman year hoops. We go to the Marion County Tournament. And one of these schools that our team, our varsity teams

playing against, dude, they're fucking, I think like swag surfing was playing. I think like they're doing, they're doing handshakes in the starting lineups. They got handshakes with everybody. There's a guy at the end of the starting lineup. There's a guy at the end of,

you know, when they walk out of the tunnel, the starting lineups that does a handshake with everybody. Yeah, why are you talking about Pike like that? Why are you talking about Jeff Teague school like that? And I was like, you know, me and all my friends was like, oh man, that is so sick, dude. Like, that's awesome. Yeah, we got to do something. Our coach gets wind of it and he's just like,

absolutely not. Don't do any of that. Like nips it in the bud. Like at the, like for the player, intros you're about to? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But being a defiant 15-year-old, I don't know, me and my friend, Nick Baker, we just were like, yeah, it's just like a little, we were going to do a little, like, I remember, it was just like a

bang, bang salute. That was that was- kind of sick, dude. Kind of subtle, respectful? Right. My ankle was messed up at the time. I had a bad high ankle sprain. so I was out.

I wasn't even playing. So I was like, I'll be the guy at the end because I'm not playing. So like you get announced in the starting lineup. I'll be at the end. Well, bang, bang,

ha, boom. No big deal. Yeah. So we do it. We do it. All right. Ball goes up. Our coach

already looks down and has somebody subbing in for Baker. Oh shit, bro. Immediate? Immediately. it after the ball's tipped. So first dead ball. He might have even called a timeout as soon as

the ball was tipped. Oh my God, dude. Subbed Baker out. And then he chewed us out at half time. And I don't think, I don't think he played the rest of the game. And I wasn't playing because I was hurt. And yeah, it was like a whole big

thing. I tried to like negotiate with him. And he was just classic being a hard ass Catholic school prick. Yeah. Man. Why can't we do a little something, you know? Yeah.

Give us a little wiggle room. Wasn't post, but it was pre. And, uh, yeah, Jamie. He got me. Oh, really? Uh-huh. He was your freshman coach? Yeah.

So he was like eight years older than us, you know. We're like, oh, Jamie's cool. He'll get it. Nope, was trying to make a point. Yo, that sucks. And he made it out of us. Yeah. All right.

From Nathan. Not a nostalgic podcast after all this. Oh, I'm going to cry thinking about all this. All right. Hey, guys, really enjoy the podcast. I look forward to it every Tuesday. Thanks. All of the recent talk about NFL and NBA Street

has got me feeling super nostalgic. After coming home from a hard day at school or just practice in general, grabbing a gate rate and sitting down and playing NBA Street for hours and then playing Maddeno 4 or being, Falcons of Michael Vick as your QB. Sometimes I wish I could go back for a day

without all the responsibilities. My question is, if you had one day to go back in time and experience it for nostalgia purposes, what would you pick and why? Smack my ass with a Nintendo 64 cartridge hoping it would work while throwing down 100 pizza rolls and drinking 10 Capri Sons

all while wearing a Jamal Mashburn, Charlotte Horn and Sturzel. Oh my God. Jamal Mashburn. Oh, my God. Okay, sorry. But damn, man That dude was sick on the heat

Jamal Mashburn, Eddie House I was like, oh What a name. Eddie House Jamal Mashburn. Bro, I know. I know, dude, the best players

always have the coolest last name just such a weird thing. Mashburn, baldhead, always wore the sickest shoes ever. I wanted them so bad. Never got them. They're the ones I got away. Yeah

He's saying if you could go back One day to go back in time And experience it for nostalgia purposes Man I got I got a couple Go When I was in sixth grade Field Day

It's like the second to last day of school I've talked about it before It was just like it was honestly like a dream We were just playing Like all the other six graders Seventh graders and eighth graders And eighth graders and all the sports kickball, football, basketball,

I was like, this is insane. And we're just doing this all day? There weren't like made up games. Like there, it was just like now, we're just playing like actual like PE sports out here. Yeah. Like there wasn't a parachute wasn't out. We didn't have the little scooters out.

It was just like, nah, just like try to beat the eighth graders in kickball. Go. You've been practicing all year and you guys like kind of have some good athletes. So like try. And the teachers were like rooting for us. They were like, come on, beat them. We're like, oh shit. We got, they got our back.

Like, let's roll, bro. We were, like, putting the girls in because they played kickball. And we were like, she can, like, actually, because they could play. They could pitch, dude. They knew how to sling it, do that shit. Put Ashley left field, bro. She can literally catch everything. Like, let's roll.

We were like, you know, we were all, like, coordinated, attack. Like, we knew what we were doing. Got our asses whooped. But it was like, it was fun. I'll never forget that. What are the other ones? If I could go back. I would go back to like fall break, eighth grade.

We had a crazy setup where we lost our last game, still think about it every day. And the whole next week we had off for some weird reason, like the way the holidays and days lined up, the whole week was off. So I was like, kind of sucks. We lost our last game. But like, bro, we don't have school or practice for a whole week. just played Grand Theft Auto San Andreas just the whole entire and I think like maybe my birthday or something was in that like it was a wild like week I'll never forget with like I don't know stars were aligned bro and I was just chilling playing video games amazing yeah I don't I mean

I can probably like pinpoint a day I guess but I guess I'll just like pinpoint that time of my life and like what I would be doing if I were to go back. One would be kind of like grade school, middle school, late grade school, early middle school, summertime. He was summer, no baseball practice, no baseball tournaments. It's probably like a Tuesday. So you don't have shit to do. Oh, Tuesday summer.

No responsibility is dangerous. Right, right. You know, go over to Jordan Reister's house. Pool has the best food, best drinks. you're doing pool but then you're going and you also are like playing MLB the show

but then you're staying over his house that night and probably go into like an Indians game or something tight Oh my God the oh my Miami league baseball

nothing hits harder than the Indians game when you're just like we don't have anything else to do dude it's so fun hey his parents rich just like bias you know

awesome concession food whatever probably go to somewhere dope downtown before. I'm like, you guys are just going to Harry and what? My parents go here for like their anniversary once every five years. What the hell's going on? Thank you. Thank you. Same tax

bracket. And then during the day like we, while we weren't playing video games or in the pool, we would just be like on AIM with IMC playing on TV. Messaging girls in your grade. Like something's going to happen. Nothing happening. But still so exciting.

I think they're over at Lindsay's house, dude. Like we could get there. You know. Oh, because you live. close to. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That shit is so exciting. Bro. It is. You got no shot, but you're like, maybe though. Hey, like at night, what if we snuck out? Never going to happen. Too pussy. But, uh, maybe. Can meet halfway. Could meet halfway. Just to even, just to even see them for one second. Like, you go to Target with your boy. You see some girls in your grade? Oh, my God. We like just saw,

oh my God. Oh, my God. Russian back home to get on AIM and be like, yo, it's, uh, up. Just saw you. Just saw you. Like no shit. We talked. Mayfest later question mark. I got to kill myself.

And then I'll go to like high school. Yeah, fall break's great. I'd say like fall break, 2011. Yeah, everybody can drive. Like you have practice. Oh,

that's crazy. You have practice weirdly that day. You know, it's like we have practice on a Monday or a Thursday or whatever. at 9 a.m. What's going on? Your clock's all messed up. And then like afterwards you're like,

I don't know, probably just like going to McDonald's and dipping. And then like somebody's parents are inevitably on a fucking fall break in Florida. And so you're like, I guess we're just living there for the next three days having the time of our life. Crazy feeling. Like this is my house for the week. And they're okay with it.

And like, they don't know. They know, but they don't know. And who cares? What are they going to do? What, the parents? Oh yeah, are we talking about the friend or the parents?

Yeah, the friend. Oh, yeah, the friend. Yeah, yeah. Friends, friends like, dude, you better not leave. You're like, that's how I was, bro. Yes, that happened to me one time. And I was just like, yo, just stay for the week. Just pack your bags.

Stay for it. I don't want to see you leave once. No, live in here. Yeah. So you get that like first kind of taste of like you get excited because you're like, is this what college is? Like, this is crazy. There's so much to look forward to.

I'm so happy. we can do this all the time but then comes the other challenges are we you parents got some booze that we could take do we have to hit up Ben Polizzi

he seems pretty cool he's my here's my P.E. assist I think that maybe he could help us out bro maybe he has a CVS uh all right let's do one more there's a whole bunch

and we're going to get to all of them throughout the next and keep emailing Tim these guys at gmail.com do you like two more two more let's do two more from Greg Benny Balitzi's beats a barler

these guys not related to any recent topics but I've been thinking a lot that Benny Balitze beats a barler needs to be a thing here's the vision TV's only on ESPN classic college football games from 2004 to 2009 with no sound no paint or wallpaper only fatheads in early 2000s hip hop rap posters like the

G unit bag for mercy album poster drinkware and dishware simply stolen cups and plates from other restaurants menu items are clubhouse themes such as order your fan favorite supreme with all your favorite toppings all the puns in there with flavor names Julius Green Peppers, Reggie White onions, Garder Mintrums, Ed Oliver's. This is a whole sketch.

But who, dude, even if I didn't like all of Ed Oliver's or Reggie White onions, I'd still order it just for that. Like, this is crazy. Who's not putting that on? Who's not putting that on? Put it on the table. Love your thoughts on this idea and how it might make

some dough. Thanks as always. Jay Buneer. Genius. Genius. So clubhouse. That could be like, you know, that could be Benny's pizza, but you know how some restaurants or bars have like kind of a weird connected like pizza joint that you can only kind of like order from or do pickup.

Or you can only do like takeout from. Yeah. Like I'm envisioning like the clubhouse bar is like our mainstay, right? And it's got all of these things we've envisioned that we make for the clubhouse. But then Benny's beats a barler is that one that's on the side that has all of these options. And all of the cups are just, like he said, it's not only things from stolen restaurants, but it's also just every single like souvenir cup that you've ever had from any stadium. Packers Cup.

Like the 07 Colts from the last year, the RCA dome. Oh my God. Oh, my God. RCA dome cup. I'd pay probably $300 for it. That's what I'm envisioning. It's like you go to the clubhouse and you have a hell of a time and you do all, you know,

you have your drinks and everything, but then on the way out, you're like, let's hit Benny's pizza barler because we're hungry. We need some grub. And I like their cups. And yeah. It's like Pizza X and,

in Bloomington or everybody had all of a million pizza X cups, you know, because everybody's ordering it late night. He just got Benny's pizza barler and it's all the different souvenir cubs. Yeah. That place had to make so much money. Half the reason I was going out

was to get pizza at one point. Like I can remember 10 weeks in a row. You know, you'd go on a spree of like going out. Good routine. It was just, I forget the name of the pizza, but it was like three meats, bro. 3 a.m.? What was I doing?

That's a whole different. that's a whole different Johnson there one that not many people have seen and I'm glad to say that I have I love the idea Greg just added into the clubhouse empire here

let's go to Jacob hashtag set Humpty Free Couldn't wait to get to this one listening to the latest episode and y'all were talking about the most embarrassing moments since this is not a sports podcast here's my sports related moment playing junior high basketball, we had free throws.

The first one was missed, and I run in for the rebound and put it back up, missed it and put it back up again and missed again, got one more. Looked around and everyone was just looking at me and said, bro, he gets two free throws. Well, got to go because Daddy's on air. Man, the way I can't believe I didn't do that. That seems very like a mistake that you would make for sure. Pretty easy to zone out during the free throws I always did it in soccer

When I played soccer grown up Like first couple of years playing sports Like they'd blow a whistle and I just keep going And one time I think I kept going for like 17 seconds And everybody was like I'm locked in I don't know I'm trying to score Totally

Yeah free throws it could kind of be like cornhole You know cornhole You just like he's zoned out And you're like wait what? Did we just shot like four times? Yeah. What's the score? What are we even doing?

I know. Yep. True. That's kind of free theory. You're like, is it a one in one? I don't know. I missed the official. I'm the king of not knowing that shit.

When I was playing basketball, I was like, I have no idea what this is. I'll just try to make it. Do I have another one? I don't. Okay. Bye. The amount of times, yeah,

how long it took me to figure out that, you know, the bonus and shit. still don't know. It's because the amount of fouls in the still don't know. Still don't know. I was like, oh, he says we're shooting.

Nobody, who's explaining that? I'm like, can someone explain this to me? One coach ever. The bonus? What the fuck? What is this? A game at Chucky Cheese? Jason Werner's dad says it's one and one.

I don't know. Okay, it's time for one and one. He says we're shooting two? Yeah, I just go by what he says. Didn't even know what one in one was. Me just. All right. Missed.

Let's get back on defense, I guess. Who knows? Someone tell me. No, don't ever. I don't ever want them to know. If I knew, I just,

it's over for me. The day I know what the bonus in one in one is in basketball, just end it there. Hit me with your car. So we missed last week, so let's just do one more and make it. I'll go a little bit longer here. From Pete. Subject line, Dwayne Jarrett and Steve Smith at USC go out of.

Oh my God. Were they there at the same time? Dwayne Jarrett. Yes, yes, they were. Dwayne Jarrett was so nice, bro. Number eight, kind of blue tinted visor. I was going to say super dark visor. Yeah.

Love the pod. First time emailer. Joey, I saw your Crymore Hacks comment on ESPN's dumbass IG post and really hoped you'd do a minute on the last episode. Go Pacers. Hearing Joey talk about his kid cutty phase reminds me of my high school days around the same time. Mac Miller was coming up and my boy put me onto him as a sophomore.

We were all obsessed. Copy to Stah would go looking for the sweater from the senior skip date music video, etc. As a kid from Omaha, Nebraska, our high school class was divided into the rap guys versus the fake redneck country guys. we were all in the same friend group for the most part

but eventually it became almost like a war country kids versus rap kids obviously also weed kids guilty didn't live in a trailer I swear Jesus okay we found weed kid two high school kids these days miss out by not having rap artists drop a mixtape that changes the fabric of the friend group

Mac Miller was Khalifa Kid Cutty they were like Christmas feel like kids these days don't have that slap my ass with John Halliburton's towel while Tyrese Halliburton's game tying shot drops of the top deck of Cambridge Arena. Yeah, dude. I mean, that's definitely our era, you know,

with like hot new hip hop and dat piff and, um, yeah, I always had to trust. I would always have to trust like the cool kids and like the, the weed kids too to like tell me. I had no idea when these things were happening. They would just be talking about like,

yeah, Wiz got new out tonight. I'm like, oh, cool. I would have never figured that out. I don't know. I was the same way. There was always somebody, well, I was kind of in on the hip hopper.

Like, I would check for new songs like every once in a while. But there were other people that would check like every day. And there's always somebody that would take the pride of being like, bro, download this. And you're like, oh, he's the guy that put me on all the songs. Like, I got a guy, Chiller. Dude, Chiller put me on so many bangers growing up. There's always a guy putting you on. Yeah.

Like I had a couple in there that I was like oh that's a dope song But I was never finding them like that I was never either and I never had the confidence to even if I had a song I was like I would never show them because I harsh critic dude if they weren't feeling it you're like ah fuck it sucks never fine Sorry sorry you go to a you you go to a party though and you hear one on the speakers and you're like I have never heard this song before bro What is this shit and then you end up getting like four new songs from that part? Oh my God And you run those into the ground for the next two weeks. Mowing the grass.

Listen to juice box. Immediately burning that CD. Oh, yeah. Don't really have the rest of the like songs to fill up the 12 tracks. So you just put on one through four. One through four, but then you fill you put in some like reg, some some some some heavy rotation ones in there that you're like, yeah, I can I can be happy with this to get this to track 16. but you really only listen to it for the for the four yeah yeah shit the shit that some people

have no i the younger audience at clubhouse no idea we're talking about but i think to answer your question bro i mean now it's just like they they don't have like datpiff and hot new hip-up i think that tic-tok and like instagram reels is just that's why they find it mm-hmm that's where i find all my music that i'm like oh yeah i forgot about that sign it's always from tic-tok yeah and you'll have full-ass songs and artists that just completely go off just because it becomes super trendy, trending, hot on TikTok. And then you're like, wait, what is that? And you go look and download it. And you're like, oh, shit.

Oh. You know, like Tommy Rich, Richmond, Rickman, Rick, the, this is going to me, man, a million dollar baby. Oh, yeah, yeah. TikTok is the new, like, kind of. lime wire, hot new hip hop. A little bit. Where else are you going to find new stuff? And that's where everybody is.

Like when we were that age, yes, we had phones and iPhones, but really all that shit wasn't around it. Like, you were still on your desktop. Like, you were still using a laptop to do all of your shit. Yeah. Whereas now everybody is just constantly on their phone. And so everybody, you go to Instagram and TikTok is where you find that instead of like, typing in hot new hip-hop.com, you know?

Mm-hmm. It's really all on TikTok and Instagram. That's where everybody's is. Entire life. Mm-hmm. Yeah. It's a good life. Good life.

Great life. All right. Team these guys at gmail.com. We have plenty more to get to on the other side. Next week we got a whole bunch still. But please don't let that deter you.
