Episode Date: July 14, 2026"Is this movie literally six hours long?" There’s nothing worse than putting your favorite movie on with your girl, hitting the hour and ten-minute mark, and realizing she is secretly scrol...ling TikTok on mute. The clubhouse maps out the reality of movie nights that completely spiral relationships, and why putting on The Town or Goodfellas might actually ruin your life.We break down a massive Mel's Best Available draft for the most underrated nights, from the absolute magic of an accidental drunk music video night to the pure invincibility of a Tuesday with no homework and no practice. We analyze the complete anatomy of a house party, debating the warm South Beach vibes of the kitchen group versus the scary NFC trench warfare of the garage groupPlus, we talk about the epidemic of fake teeth on celebrities, the cargo shorts of week three high school football, and what happens when your homie takes a moped to school and leaves it dead center in a real parking spot.

Had a homie spent the night, school night, last week of school, Joe King, opted out of taking his car to school, took our moped to school.
I was like, I wouldn't even try that, but you can, you got it.
I just took my car. Hey, passed him on the way to school.
Hey, hit him on the way to school.
Me passing him, him.
Not bad for a fat guy.
What up, Clubhouse is Benny Plitzy.
Joey Mulanaro on this week's
TG, did they talk about watching movies
with your girl and how they hate you after?
No. Did they talk about how the Mac
should be sponsored by Little Caesars?
Nope, never. They never talk about that stuff.
Or do they talk about your neighbor's sick garage
or the time you drove a moped
to school? I don't know.
Let's start the show.
Take your sexy time.
Beautiful people.
Oh!
Don't you know, don't you know?
Oh,
oh,
Hey, Chris Brown,
just 700 platinum hits?
That may show up
in Mel's best later tonight.
It may be a feature of Mel's best.
That may show up as a feature of Mel's best this week.
It just got me thinking about it.
Put some respect on Chris Brown.
Do we talk about that?
enough? I don't know. TG. TG.
194.
194. Hey.
Ah, no. How we doing?
Oh, eh, oh. Colt's third down sound.
Not a local podcast.
No, I don't think it was the third down sound.
I think it was just a random.
It would be like during TV timeouts or something.
It would always get me hype though.
I think it would kind of play maybe while Manning was in the huddle.
Maybe?
What is that even from?
But I think other stadiums do it too.
Like, I swear.
You ever been to a different game and be like, they do that too?
Yeah, it's a weird feeling.
Hey, copycat league.
Yeah.
Dude, yes.
It would be like during a dead time in the action.
A little bit of downtime.
I would love to be that MC guy up there at RCA dome and just,
oh yeah, I think now's a perfect time.
Flip open the button.
It really was always perfect timing.
Like the crowd was kind of dead.
You were kind of like thinking about something else.
Then you hear,
oh,
and you'd be like,
all right,
let's go.
Got to kind of lock in a little bit.
Yeah.
They're down.
Every guy in the clubhouse is alarm tomorrow.
Oh.
Let's go.
Hey,
and go ahead and set your alarms to go by those tickies.
New York City.
The show is on.
And some of you may be like, wait, wait a six.
So they go to New York City.
What is it?
So is it Benny and Joe?
They're doing stand up.
Are they doing it?
No, no, no.
This is this show.
Yep.
It's these guys.
200th pod episode 200.
Breaking it down.
Gramercy Theater.
So it's not going to be 20 minutes of Joey, then 20 minutes of Benny or 20 minutes of Joey and 50 minutes of Benny or vice versa or anything.
No, it's going to be.
The show for us, babe.
Anywhere from 60 minutes to 90 minutes to hell if it goes well,
220.
I don't know.
We'll go on that.
We're going to be talking Jason Seahorn Mike Piazza.
We're going to be talking Tom Coughlin's red face in the 2007 NFC title.
Might be doing some AFC NFC.
And here's the best part, in my opinion.
You guys get to be part of the show too.
That's one of the best part of this.
whole thing. It's the best part. It's the best part. It's got the email. It's got the
Discord that we have every single week. But then at the live shows, the one in Indy, two years
ago, the one Chicago last year, we had like half the show, 40 minutes plus of the show where
people, people just shout themselves out to us. We were going over. We were talking about it. We
were bullshit. They're asking questions. It's awesome. It's different when it's live too.
Exactly. I'll see you there. Bring your questions. Save them. Don't
email them. Well, you can't right now, but like when we get close, don't email. Put them in that
back pocket. Scream it out at Gramercy. So that's what's going down. Gramercy Theater. September
1st show post seven. It doesn't matter. September 1st, Gramacy Theater. These guys live,
this show live going down. Get your tickies now. Get your tickets. We'll have the merch there.
We'll be there. The jerseys will be there. Jersey off? I don't know. Kind of a tradition for the live show.
We've done it the first two times
So can't wait to see what NYC brings
Yeah yeah yeah
Rex Ryan will be there
You will only see his teeth though
God Rex Ryan's teeth
Hey best teeth Mel's best available teeth
Man they're up there
Real or fake fake for sure right?
Hell of fake bro nobody's teeth are real anymore
I'm kind of starting to realize that
I'm kind of hey the question's gone through the head
Should I get fake teeth
bro I thought about it a lot
like before everything
I was like I kind of want to fake teeth
dude I was listening to
the rewatchables
pod with Bill Simmons
and that crew
and they were talking about
Armageddon I think
they were doing rewatchables
of Armageddon
and they do all these different categories
and these different you know
subplots of the show
and the movie and everything
and they got into the details
about
how I guess Ben Affleck got fake teeth for that movie.
Michael Bay, the director, I guess he was like,
your teeth are too, they're too little.
They're two bitch of teeth.
I like close up shots and I need big teeth.
Got him a whole thing of fake teeth.
So Ben Affleck had, and he did, he had little ass teeth.
Like, if you go back and you look at Goodwill hunting and his early roles,
you're like, oh yeah, those were some just little chicklets.
It's a good friend right there.
He did Armageddon and he did, now he's got big ones.
I'm like, shit, Ben Affleck's doing it.
Bro, of course Ben Affleck's doing it.
He gets more FaceTime than anybody in the history of the world.
Yeah, but you're right.
Everybody.
Anybody that you look, anybody you see online, anybody you see in the movies on shows, fake teeth.
Get you a homie that'll tell you that you have little teeth.
That's a guy you need.
That's a real friend right there.
Hey, you got little teeth.
All right.
New teeth tomorrow.
they'll do it anywhere too bro
they'll hook you up with the nears on a street corner
you would definitely be that friend you you have been that friend to me many
times it's a good guy man
but it always makes me feel better because I know I can do the same thing back to
Ben because he's waiting for it if I say so like that day
he's like thank God you said that to me man
how else would I know that I had
how else would I know
Little teeth gang

Kids there running through the place.
Hey.
Looking at the lights.
Halloween decor all the way out at Lowe's.
Summer's over.
Right when you see the first beer of Halloween.
Summer's over.
Bro, that was another thing.
That was another thing I was about to say.
I literally said that to Rye the other day.
I think last night I said, no.
On the way to Lowe's.
I said, God, there's two things that I'm just itching for.
Going to Spirit of Halloween.
God.
Going to a high school football game.
Like week three high school football, getting kind of real.
Seeing where it stacks up.
Week one, I'm good.
Big one's a little too hot.
Everyone's a little too excited.
You know, the crowd is overly packed because week one, you know,
you don't just have mom and dad.
You got grandma and grandpa and aunt and uncle, like,
Superintendents.
Somebody might travel in from out of state for like week one of senior year.
The guy doesn't even play either.
Let's go to his football game.
He plays three snaps.
You know,
just like you didn't have to make this trip.
Yeah.
Aunt Jody.
You didn't have to do all that.
But they're there.
All the Aunt Jodys are there week one.
But week three.
Real ones come out.
Week three.
You have to hope that you're missing homecoming, you know, because that's always, it's kind of after week three, anywhere from week three to week six, you're like, that's homecoming range right there.
Never know.
But week three, you hit that.
Hey, it's like always lines up with the high school football season.
Always lines up week three is like Labor Day weekends.
So you're like, I might be getting fucked up after this.
Week three high school football.
Who's real?
Who's fake?
We'll find out.
Cargo shorts on the sideline?
You wearing them?
Are you in the game?
You're returning punts?
You wearing cargo shorts.
Cargo shorts with not a brace on you?
Not a boot, not a brace.
Not a cast.
Should have played soccer.
Just jersey and cargo shorts?
Okay.
Okay.
Just wanted to be in the picture.
Okay.
All right.
Just wanted to wear a jersey on Fridays.
All right.
Okay.
You got 35 guys on the sideline.
I don't see one brace.
Well, okay.
You come out for the football team,
but I didn't play football.
Okay.
My ass.
Got a concussion.
My ass.
Week three, though.
The,
uh,
hey,
the sun starts setting a little sooner.
Oh,

Sailor's Delight?
Whoa, hey, long sleeves a little bit.
Hold on.
Do I see a guy out there wearing cold gear?
Hold on.
Do I hear something in the air?
Hey, is your friend that's always been cooler than you?
He showed to the game.
You go back as alum.
He showed to the game and he's got a Nike quarter zip of that high school.
And you're like, what's going on?

Kind of hard.
Kind of tough.
Yeah,
not a high school podcast.
QZs.
QZs on week three.
Hey,
September 1st,
though,
that's going to be
September 1st.
Going back to that,
like,
we don't have to do
the whole sales pitch,
but.
Yeah.
except one, New York City, East Coast of the Sun, you know, starts, that's what's going to be happening.
It's getting a little chilly.
Just so you know.
Chili and chili.
Am I right?
Hey, I didn't want to bring this up.
Had a clubhouse member sent to us.
And I didn't do enough research to confirm if it's real or fake or not.
But I'm just going to, for the sake of discussion, for the sake of argument, for the sake of you, the listener.
I'm going to go ahead and assume that it's real.
The Big 12.
Now going to be the Monster Energy
Big 12 conference.
I like this.
We're sponsoring conferences now.
So it's like how Home Depot sponsors college game day.
It's like Big 12 Monster conference.
Didn't have Monster
pegged for the Big 12th?
definitely not the worst sponsor for a conference
or the football
but of course now
and true these guys clubhouse fashion
I believe the discussion has to be had
who's sponsor in the other conferences
we're just going drinks here
go whatever you are dealer's choice babe
I feel like big 10 would be like
whole mills
Milk.
Big Ten.
Menards?
Cross my mind.
Big Ten.
Speedway gas station?
You got to think what's only Big Ten.
Big Ten area.
We'll see what really fucks it up is that, you know, we had to go out and get USC and Oregon and UCLA.
They know deep down.
They're not Big Ten, though.
Oregon's like, we're in the Big Ten, but we're not.
Like, they know.
I think they know that.
Absolutely.
So we know what the real big 10 is.
All right.
So we got Monards.
We got Speedway gas station.
Here's one for you.
Country crock.
Big Ten Cracker Barrel.
Okay.
Kind of in the same light there.
Country crock butter?
It's a good
But that's the only butter for me
That brown tub
It's got the barn on the front
You're like, are we in Iowa?
We go to see the Hoosiers after?
Is this Cracker Barrel butter?
Country Crock and Cracker Barrel, same guy.
Yeah, definitely
First Cousins
Big Ten dollar general
Big Ten
John Deere
Oh, wow

Underrated night
Hold up
All right let's hit some SEC

SEC
I think it's clear as day
Talk to me
Waffle House

That sauce.
All those places have that sauce.
Saxpies, Popeyes,

Mm-hmm.
It kind of is already.
It's good at Cains.
Cains?

Vineyard Vine, not bad.
LL Bean, ACC.
The ACC powered by
Forloco.
Carolina Brands, here you go.

The Speedway branding is tough.

The running logo, like on Ohio State's Jersey?
The S with the speed.

Does that designate the leg out like a superhero?
Is Jeremiah Smith the only one that has that?
Kind of want a Speedway hoodie.

Mart used to be called Starvin Marvin.
Did you know that?
No.
Yo, maybe that's something I made up in my head.
Hold on.
Starvin Marvin SEC or Starvin Marvin SEC.
Starvin Marvin Speedway.
They convene the stores of a Speedway.
So Speedway gas station was like red and white and then you go into Starvin Marvin and that
that was like Speedway's bro.
And it was blue and black.
So it was like AFC, NFC, NFC one gas station.
Like, ha, ha, ha.
Wow, it was just a Super Bowl every day at Speedway.
Bro, it was a party at Speedway.
And they only had them in the Midwest.
Like, there's a Speedway Express out here.
And I'm like, what is that?
You know, try to use an OG like Midwest Speedway gift card in there.
They're like, we don't take those.
I'm like, you're not the real thing.
Yeah.
The Speedway, yeah, yeah, the rewards cards, right?
Doot.
Anytime you go to go ahead.
I just had a gift card.
My dad gave me like a 12.
$25 Speedway gift card.
I was like, I'm going to buy like 15 Clif bars right now.
Yep.
Best way to go about it.
Starvin,
Marvin, bro.
Yeah, once the conferences start getting
named like that, it's over.
I mean, everything.
College conferences getting sponsorship names like that.
CUSA.
I love those little,
I love those little conference.
The American athletic conference.
Oh, dude, what's Mac?
Wow. Now we're talking.
Mac needs to be like AutoZone.
Michelin.
Michelin Mac.
Like the Michelin tires.
O'Reilly's Mac.
Does O'Reilly's have a bowl game?
Yes.
Yes.
Mac.
Chili's Mac.
Skyline.
Skyline.
Yeah.
Yeah, I think just because I'm thinking it's the conference championships always played Detroit.
So I'm just thinking something.
Little Caesar's Mac.
Oh.
Oh.
Yeah, that's it.
That's it.
That's it.
God, I saw a little, dude, I was in Michigan yesterday or low-key today.
And they had like those signs on the highway that you see like what's coming up on the exits.
Actually, best idea of all time, whoever thought of that.
Like this is what's on this exit.
How would we ever know without those signs?
But there's a little Caesar sign.
You know when you see like a cool like restaurant on those that you don't normally see?
You're like, damn!
Like, oh, Charlie's made the sign?
Like, let's go.
I love seeing that.
You ever have what sometimes they don't make the sign or there's two signs?
Because like somebody on, you know, the shotgun passers would be like, yeah, there's
there's a B-dubs coming up here at this exit.
And you pass a sign, you're like, such food, right?
See any beat-ups?
on there. But then you go up like 500 yards. They have another sign. More food, the same exit.
You're like, oh, wow. This place must be off the chain. They got two signs. Yeah, places lit,
bro. Good exit. We're going to have a pick of the litter here, man. Jeez. I know. You see that
Taco Bell and you see Chick-fil-A? You're like, I want to live here. I know. Exit 87. Like,
can we move there? Good gas stations, too. I was about to say good gas stations. They got like a pilot.
Pilate the BP.
Hey, and it's like not too far off of the exit.
You don't have to do like a mile and a half down.
It's all just right there.
You're like, sick.
I get it bang, bang, bang.
And then I'm back going 65 south of Florida, baby.
Weirdly a dairy queen.
You're like, we could just stay here for vacation.
I love seeing that.
I'm like, yes, lit exit.
Weird when they had the mix of fast food.
But then, yeah, like, you know, Charlie's in a Texas road.
roadhouse pops up.
Should we just stick around for a while?
Shake our legs out.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hey, you start asking, so are we trying to like make a certain time or?
We good on time?
We left pretty early.
I mean, check-in's not till, what, three?
You're a little afraid to throw out the old Charlie's of the Texas Roadhouse,
but you want to so badly, just hoping that somebody takes the bait.
Would it be too weird if we just, like, got some apps?
but you know your mom or dad are both.
Your dad's on-clocked.
Your dad's,
dad can't shake the like schedules, you know?
Once a dad's got a schedule in his head,
it's not, there's no flexibility.
It's a bang, bang, bang.
Dude, mom swing that way through.
My mom, man, she's the biggest culprit in our family.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
If we were caravaned down to Florida and I pitched Texas Roadhouse for a stop,
she would literally want to shoot me in the face.
Get out.
Yeah.
Like she's like
She's like yeah
We'll go through the chick flight
Through and while we're sitting in the drive through
We'll each go to the restroom
And like hop back in the car
As the car's going around the drive-thru
Efficient mom
Clocked
I like it
I like it
Like we're literally on vacation
What is the rush
I know I hate that
We got nowhere to be
I know
Let's stop for some cinnamon butter and roll
man. Let's tell the peanuts on the ground. Let's tell someone it's a birthday when it really isn't. Get the song. Let's do it all.
Hotos. Come on. Yeah, dude. And then yeah, a lot of those exits too, yeah, you'll have like a Texas roadhouse.
I'd know Charlie's sprinkled in with a Taco Bell and a Chick-fil-A and a Wendy's. But then there's like a Minard's too back there.
Like a big ass or you're like, damn, this really, yeah, yeah. If we were a caravaned down on a Friday night, this would be your problem.
We wouldn't be able to stop here.
There's too many people.
There's always a target.
Exactly.
Then I'm like, what's the high school look like around here?
Catch a game?
I can hear the band.
Did Kyle Rudolph go to high school?
I think Kyle Rudolph went to high school around here.
Centerville or something, like real rich school.
Oh, I think they're nationally ranked.
Yeah, traveling through Tennessee.
You know, this is like the pocket of neighborhoods where like Kirk Herbstree and like Trent Dillfer and all them or it's where all they live.
Kyle Rudolph definitely went there.
Every high school you've ever seen.
Didn't K.R. go there?
Met him one time at the Kentucky Derby.
Total asshole.
Not a fan.
Yeah.
Sinnerville though.
That sounds like an exit that you'd be like.
What's their mall?
Poplar.
Probably over Centerville.
Yeah.
It's a good, this is a good one.
You know, you pop in any of those gas stations over there, like, bathrooms clean.
Yo, and they got something in the gas station that you're like, what?
Like, this gas station's paired with like a, like a Orville Redenbocker, like popcorn thing.
You're like, what, dude?
Their gas stations have, like, crossover stores with them.
Yeah.
Like, how is that, how is this subway in this?
When you see a subway gas station, you're like, kind of a lit situation here.
Okay.
Okay.
McDonald's gas station?
Yeah.
There's a blondeys cookies inside of the Speedway?
That this is really in the malls.
They got samples?
Yeah, I used to take those samples out.
I used to.
Literally, you would take them out.
Violently.
Like take whole cookies
Nobody had a better sample claw than your boy
I was like ha
Full cookie
Yeah that was good
Never bought anything from there
But sample slap
All right
What is oh
You got dripping or tripping for you
Oh talk to me talk to me baby
Drippin or tripping
Nutter name is 2026
Shamrock series uniforms.
I saw them, but I got
looking at them again.
I understand what they are going for.
I like...
It's never dripping, dude.
I like the design up top.
I just wish
that they didn't have
the monogrammatic pants
jersey combination.
I think that the
I think that the...
I think that the Jersey...
Yeah, I think that the jersey itself and the gold helmet,
it's like, okay, this isn't straying too far away from Notre Dame.
I get what they're going for with the Packers influence.
Different color pant.
Yeah, it doesn't look good.
It looks like, it doesn't look like Notre Dame at all with the Navy on Navy.
What is it hurt to have gold pants there?
I think, yeah, like the gold that's on the, like, uniform, too, like metallic.
would be insane.
I just say,
can we put N.D. on the shoulder?
What's it going to hurt?
I love that look.
Like Jerome Bettis era,
Notre Dame.
ND on the shoulder.
And they had like,
remember,
Notre Dame had like a badass linebacker too.
Number four.
I forget who it was,
but it was like back then,
when pads were big,
when pads were big.
When pads were big.
New podcasts on these guys network.
when pads were big
ND on the shoulder
a white number
outlined in gold
just and put the last names on there
I think they are for the Shamrock series
yeah they always do it for the Shamrock series
but they weirdly had an era too
I think at the beginning of Brian Kelly era
that they had the names on the back
I'm pro name on the back
but they went away from that too
yeah I don't care what the tradition is anymore
we play as a team.
So we don't have names on the
it doesn't matter bro.
Put the names on the back.
It just like aesthetically,
it looks so much better with like bang last name.
Oh, I saw a little,
now I'm searching here,
there's a little Reddit thread
that had a rumored
or a mockup of what the 2026
Shamrock series uniform could be
because they're playing at Lambo
against Wisconsin.
Would it have been too far
if Notre Dame busts out the green jerseys
with Notre Dame gold pants
and it looked like the Packers.
No, that'd be fine.
So that's like in the Notre Dame rotation, right?
Like green jerseys are like whenever.
I don't know if they're whenever,
but they definitely wear them once a year.
But one thing I don't like
is that they recently have been wearing green jerseys,
Kelly Green. Wow.
That's Notre Dame.
That's Notre Dame.
Just the outline of that photo right there
when pads were big underneath them
that's the logo of the pot.
Who's not listening?
Look at that.
That's dude,
ND on the shoulder
and then like a,
the clover right there,
green just to pop it off a little bit.
Oh yeah,
they got green too.
Hey,
underrated part of those uniforms.
Gold.
Gold.
Just like that,
babe.
Just like that.
The gold elastic on the,
on the sleeves of the shoulder pads
and the collar.
Yeah,
they were hitting.
and the little green they're hitting it with the the the accents of the pop pop pop
pop back then yeah uh drippin or tripping
Wisconsin shamrock uniforms
those are big tripping
tripping why are you trying to be with western kentucky
I do like how teams are like
we always talk about how like
you know don't
everything's too plain and simple now looks like high school jerseys
know, we've been saying that a little bit.
So I do like how, like, for these one-off unis,
they're just, like, going crazy and trying to hit home runs.
So it's, like, not that bad, but this is, like, an ugly jersey, honestly.
Like, the new, the new Wisconsin joint is,
it's just trying way too hard.
And you can't really see it.
I don't like when I can't see stuff.
Yeah.
But look you, that Colvers patch on there, though?
That's what I was just about to say.
I think the jersey itself is tripping, but the Culvers, that's my dream.
That is dripping to the max.
That is my dream when schools just embrace or teams just embrace who they are and where they're from.
Yeah.
Come on.
A white Wisconsin with Culvers on there?
Talk to me nice.
If you don't think that I'm watching that game and then immediately hop in to get a Snickers concrete
mixer from Colvers, forget it.
Concrete mixer.
I don't know.
Dangerous, dude.
Dangerous.
Concrete mixer.
How much better does that jersey get, though,
if the numbers and lettering are just bright Wisconsin white instead of Western Kentucky
Chrome?
It's so,
it's so Hilltopper Nation.
It really is.
Hilltopper Nation.
a very very dripping like team name too the hilltoppers
and then there's their logos just
that guy
lost you
I think you hit your mic
yeah there you got me
a guy with a flag
who am I thinking no who am I thinking of
who am I thinking of that's yeah yeah it's like
he's like the
he's like a hand with a towel
he's like grimace's brother or something
I guess he's like a human form of a hill
I mean I'd imagine
One of those dripping helmets of all time
W are Western Kentucky's eyes on there
Eyes on the hell
Oh shit yeah
Western Kentucky always the school is like
Hey if your team drafts a dude from Western Kentucky
In the fourth round you're like
Uh oh yeah yeah yeah
Watch that guy don't yeah just the people don't know
But we do
Yeah no he's a guy
during the combine and during all the draft shit
you're like, God, stop talking about
the dude from Western Kentucky.
I want the guy from Western Kentucky.
Sleeper pick.
That's so funny.
All right, you got any other dripping or tripping?
Nah, that's funny, though.
When people start hyping up dudes during the draft,
you're like,
don't let everybody know, because it actually works.
I swear to go.
When we start hyping people during the,
it's just like, you get him, yeah, he's right.
Like, we climbed up four rounds.
We talked about that with Tavon Walker.
The Jaguars literally drafted him
because everybody on Twitter was talking about him.
I swear to God.
I swear to God that's exactly what happened.
All right.
Let's hit some Mel's Best.
Alternating Weeks.
Last time we did Mel's Best eyes.
That got a lot of people talking,
a lot of engagement, the Discord.
And on YouTube.
Definitely some ones that you're like,
oh, fuck, yeah.
I forget about that.
Yeah.
A lot of people hit me with Randall Cobb.
A lot of people hit me with Kelly Ubre.
Hey.
Now a local pod.
Now in Indiana Pacer.
Kelly Ubre is on the Pacers?
Yeah, just signed up to your deal.
Let's go.
Pretty excited about it.
Yeah.
Pick up.
Also got Larry Nance.
Shut up.
The Pacers have Larry Nance?
Yeah.
Squad.
Yeah.
Dunker, bro.
Him and Obie Toppin?
Larry Nance was my favorite.
I didn't know he's still in the league.
My favorite.
Yeah.
Kind of regret about that, too, until he signed him.
Bro, the Pacers got not a local podcast, but.
Bro, he's got some high flyers on the team.
Yeah.
I, you know, I consider myself a big Pacers fan,
and I, like, follow more than just, like,
you know, you're casual or whatever,
but, like, my guy's in the know and the group chat in the know.
And the group chat in the know.
I kind of, I always throw this in there,
to kind of like gauge and they're all just like
they're about to be
Lob Nation not even Lob City
Lob Nation with Obie Toppin at Larry Nance
and possibly Ubrey
off the bench
Kelly Ubrey wore that Supreme Sleeve
and that's
British knowledge of Kelly Ubre and that's why we have him here
And that's what it's all about
I mean that's everybody
knows about Kelly Ubrey didn't just hot
guy.
Wait.
Yeah, no more Pacers games is here for you guys.
Hey, you got a girlfriend?
Hey, don't take her to the game.
Oh, hey, Kelly Ubra's hurt.
We can go to the game.
No, that'd probably be even worse than, bro.
He's not, he's not focused on the game.
Then he's got time to look all over the place.
During timeouts, all the different timeouts, all those guys,
they're not doing anything.
They're just wandering around back.
there looking for chucks.
Also, when guys are heard in the NBA,
they're getting their fits off too.
Yeah.
Who's that guy that stood up during that timeout?
Yep.
Hey, girl wears heels to go see
the Pacers play this year?
Not you know.
Guess what? Not your girl anymore.
Night night.
Oh, man.
Mel's best available this week.
Mel's best available.
Underrated Knights.
I touched on it last week
kind of got the ball rolling last week
the seed was planted last week
when we got talking about the video game night
you and the boys all of a sudden
you just say you know what
let's just pack it in and play FIFA
and 2K for six hours
and dip
and it's gonna be awesome
listen to music bullshit about whatever
underrated night
you first
I'm excited to see where you go with this
because I don't really know
yeah I'm excited to see where you go with it
because I don't know either
You always come up with body parts and shit
I always kind of like these are kind of my shit
that I come up with for Mel's best, you know, how my brain works.
So I'm always like, what has Ben going to come up with?
But that's the fun of it.
Mel's Best Available Underrated Knights.
First pick, got to take it there.
I think it's a no doubt or franchise changer.
The accidental drunk night.
Okay, okay.
I like this.
I like where this is gone.
So it's, it's, it's,
doesn't even have to be drunk, but it's just accidental drinks.
So let's say it's Friday night and you don't really think anything's going on,
haven't heard from anybody.
Maybe the weather's kind of shitty.
Like it's just kind of like, nah, it's not one of those nights.
No.
And then all of a sudden your boy, one of your boys hits you up, kind of made one that you
don't really like think about that would like be into that.
You'd be like, oh, he probably already is like meeting up with people or going out or something
for sure.
but all of a sudden he hits you up
and just like
yeah, should we
should just be like a music video night?
And you're like, whoa,
you're down for that?
Or like, hey, like I was,
I was gonna come over to,
I had something that I needed to drop off
that whatever it is.
Some bullshit reason why they're there,
you know, it's like,
oh, I'm bringing diapers over
for the diaper party that I had to miss.
And you're like, all right, yeah, cool man.
but then they get there and all of a sudden it's just like
hey you want a beer or something
yeah sure I'll take one and then
all of a sudden ball starts rolling
and it's Friday night
my girl said I could stay out
right
but then sometimes even
like your sometimes even like your girl
and your wife your girlfriend even like they join in
and it's still like really fun they're having drinks
you're having drinks friends having drinks
all of a sudden what rolled into like yeah I'm just stop by
and drop this off real quick yeah sure
I'll have one.
Yeah, let me get another.
You get to the after.
Let me get another.
Then I'm saying like, here's a make a break.
But number three.
Then if they go get number three before you do at your house, you're like, it's on.
It is on.
Low expectations.
We are doing this.
Didn't see this coming, but my plans are way different tomorrow.
Uh-huh.
Tomorrow's looking a little chill.
But that night is so fun.
And it always, like, you can't, you can't create.
it. You can't plan that.
Can't teach that, man. And that's why
it's an underrated night instead of one of
like the best top nights because
the best top nights for me are like
I mean,
this would be in that. But
that is like the show where it's like the annual
Christmas party. Somebody's 30th
birthday. A guy's golf trip.
You know, that's like way
up there. But you have to plan that.
And that can't be fun with the planning.
This is the shit where it's like
absolutely no idea.
You probably thought that you were going to bed early that night.
And then all of a sudden, it's 1 a.m.
We're going out.
You're not even going out, dude.
You're firing up like M&M music videos from 2001 on YouTube on your TV.
And you're still having drinks.
It's just so fun, man.
It might just be music video night.
Yeah, that's true.
But the key is the accidental, the not planned part of it.
Yeah.
That's number one for me.
Now we're just watching tip drill.
Fuck yeah, dude.
Music videos are so sick at like 2 a.m.
During the day,
like I don't think anyone's ever watched a music video during the day.
Definitely very, very vampiry.
So locked into a music video at 2 a.m.
Oh.
The only comes out of night,
you pick up something different.
You remember something different.
He's in this?
Did you see him back there?
Like, like, I'll never forget.
When me and DJ Dial on,
we're having one of these nights.
We're having one.
one of these nights and we were watching
When I See You by Fantasia music video
and Larry Johnson pops in it.
Sheesh Larry Johnson.
Is he wearing the jersey?
I think he might have been wearing
his Penn State jersey actually.
Oh my God. No way. That's a dream.
Yeah. I think that's maybe something
that we talked about.
Something we made it made up
Never know when you might walk by.
Larry Johnson and a Penn State jersey.
Oh!
bro, I would geek.
But we still talk about that night.
That was like six years ago, five years ago.
We still talking about that night.
Those go till 5 a.m.
And that's the best shit.
And you literally were like, yeah, I'll probably watch a movie.
You'd probably be in bed by 9.30.
All of a sudden, 11.30.
You're like, uh, uh, uh, YouTube's hitting you with bangers too, like up next.
And you're like, that?
Oh, yo.
So fun, dude.
Never even thought that song.
had a music video.
But the way I'd sum it up is that the accidental night is the night that you can't plan,
but it's all you ever want to do.
That's why it's the magic when it happens.
Yeah.
Get some food.
You wanted to low-key eat, but you didn't tell anybody about.
Then there's like consensus.
Yeah, let's go get that.
What?
Mm-hmm.
All right.
underrated nights
nothing to do
don't have plans
looking for trouble though
Walmart night
okay
I know I know where you're going
but kind of know where to go
I don't know we could go to hit
he can't go to his house
we could go no they don't want to do anything
I'll just go to Walmart for a little bit
there's nothing you want to buy
you're just going to check it out
let's go walk around
I don't know
maybe we'll think of something
maybe we'll see somebody
mall's closed bro
there's nowhere to go
Walmart night
yeah
sometimes there were
some Walmart nights
where there was actually a plan
Walmart night
video games dropping
Walmart night
got to pick it up at midnight
Walmart night
I was going to say
that's one thing
you can be there late
you don't feel like you're going to be in trouble
because God knows what's going on there.
We're not anybody's house.
We're not like a bad kid's house.
We're in public at a place regulated with the Walmart.
And you also feel like you can hang out in their parking lot for a little bit.
Big parking lot, sash.
Kind of like on the outskirts of the parking lot.
Like kind of by the outback steakhouse.
Two cars pulled up.
One's playing music in a parking lot for,
way too long.
Wait, tell them to stop by.
We're at Walmart.
Yeah, you have to kind of stick and move a little bit because, you know, you don't want
popping up on you thinking it's like some sort of drug deal or something.
Trunks are open.
Walmart parking lot.
Somebody has a great black and mild.
All right.
Hey, football being thrown around?
So we're just had a tailgate?
Half, half filled vodka water bottle?
parking lot?
Okay.
Dude,
what I would do
to roll up
in the outskirts
of a Walmart
parking lot
with you
can of wintergreen
dip,
I'd do it right now.
Just sitting there.
But yeah,
dude.
A little bit of Drake on.
All right.
Okay.
That's a good one.
Walmart night.
Yeah.
All right.
Mel's best available
underrated nights.
rack of my brain thinking back to all what are some nights that were just like oh wow you know it doesn't come around too often but damn so sick needs to get more love
Mel's best underrated nights the no homework no practice night
doesn't happen often man you're that that crossover does not happen a lot no it's like it's like when when when when
Fairly odd parents went to Jimmy Neutron world and vice versa.
You love that.
Yeah, you're like, whoa, whoa, what the, what?
You know, hold on.
Hold on.
You know, like, hey, I'm trying to think of some other like rug rats and,
hey, Arnold, no, I don't know what hang around, but like, yeah, that kind of shit.
I think the back of my head blew off when Batman popped in a Superman cartoon.
I was like, oh!
Exactly.
Same type of response.
Them talking to you.
each other.
I'm like nervous to see if they like each other on the cartoon.
I'm like,
oh my God.
Totally.
That's a big deal.
It's a big deal.
It's a big moment.
Yeah.
But it's the same reaction when all of a sudden you're like, wait a second.
No, so I don't have anything to do tonight.
Then I don't have to feel bad about it.
So this is kind of like a weekend night on a Tuesday.
Kind of feel guilty.
But then, uh, then you try to like spice it up.
up a little bit and you're like, hey mom, can we get KFC?
Right. You think because you're off that your parents are also off?
So you're like, yeah, we might, we're probably having like some out to eat food tonight.
Throw it out there. Maybe your mom doesn't want to cook. Hey, Domino's 799 one topping on Tuesdays.
I don't know. Happens to be Tuesday. Hey, Tuesday, Fazzoli's kids eat free.
I'm not, you know, you don't got to, I can say that for as long as we're, because I don't
get homework to do. Technically, a kid.
kid. Yep.
I'm a sophomore.
I'm a sophomore and I see that breadstick fairy.
Roaming around on the inside of Vizole.
You got a fairy?
I always had like a weird guy that would try to like sing to us and shit.
Kind of a dream job.
Real sad place to be inside of Vizolez.
Can't say I ever want to go back,
but had plenty of great memories there.
Yeah.
Walk into the bathroom,
Italian music playing.
You're like, right.
Yeah, dude.
It's once in a blue moon.
But the satisfaction that you have
walking out those doors,
you kind of feel like Ferris Bueller.
You're like, I'm getting away with something here.
And like, it's just now starting.
Like, I'm going to, I'm going to make the most of this next like
seven hours that I have.
Stars are aligned.
No practice.
No homework.
It's,
3.30 p.m.
And I'm just home.
What am I going to do?
I guess I get on the computer.
I guess I'll...
I could like eat a bowl of cereal right now.
You kind of start and you kind of start like doing the math in your head around like
six period, fifth period or something.
You're kind of like, you're looking.
You're like, okay, well, I already know I've done a practice tonight.
But like I've made it through somehow to this point, no homework.
So six period I have religion
That should be fine
Seventh period
You know you start like mapping it out in your head
You're like can I pull this off
It's kind of like when like
Yeah you're drafts like 16th
And all of a sudden the guy starts to slide
And you're like
Hold up
You're the ravens and you're like
Are we gonna get Kyle Hamilton?
I don't think anybody needs a DB
In front of us right now
Like is this really about to happen?
Like we thought we're gonna
I thought I was going to have to do some homework tomorrow morning
or like try to get it done now in order for this to happen.
We thought we were going to have to trade up a few picks maybe to get this.
But I think the board's going to fall our way.
It really depends on math.
Like if you don't, because you always have homework and math stone cold lock, bro.
But maybe you get it done during the day.
Maybe it's a test day.
Yeah.
And you're like, that's what I'm saying.
it doesn't happen often.
Nah.
But needs more love
for those days on like a Tuesday
and like the fall of 2007
when you're a kid again.
What's that girl doing tonight?
Wonder if she has homework.
No homework, no practice.
No homework, no practice.
Text night?
So we like had pizza tonight.
What would you do?
Fire.
Firing off some stuff because you're like, you're feeling hot.
You're feeling high and mighty from the no practice, no homework.
You think you can get away with anything?
Throwing out some haze here and there.
Feel a little invincible.
It's never happened.
Don't get a text back.
Just start petting your dog.
All right.
That brings you back down.
You're like, fuck.
I should probably pull out some books, get ahead.
Yeah.
Yeah, let me actually read for the next chapter.
Oh, shit.
Underrated Knights.
Card game night?
Okay.
What kind of card game?
Yeah, yeah.
It's like Euker Knight, you and the boys.
Okay.
I'm going, but I'm not playing.
You guys just chilling around a lot?
Oh, my God.
Yeah, of course, man.
I'm just sitting there
Just nothing matters
I'm just making fun of random things
They're playing
You're in charge of music
It's a good like it's a different night
That you know it's a little switch up
Some different guys are there
You're like all right all right okay
Yeah
See what they can see what they bring in
It's you're now
Oh yeah it wouldn't be Uker back then
Poker probably
But Uker now
Not Local Pod
Yeah, you're in charge of the music and like,
you're not at the table,
but you just got like the bar stool at the kitchen island.
Yeah.
Just throwing out comments.
Yeah.
Oh, it's so like relaxed, you know, there's no pressure.
Pantry access.
Everybody else is locked in, you know,
getting with their chips and everything.
Big basement night.
The guys who are like,
don't want to play either,
like they start like coming over.
You're starting to talk to them.
You don't play 2K?
Yeah.
And for the guys playing the game, like they're happy, you know, their spirits are up.
Like, they're worried about that.
Yeah, you're just like.
Yeah.
Good snack night.
I feel like, I feel like if you ever, if that ever happened, you'd always show up and, you know, the dude's mom or dad.
Because, you know, the dad would be like, like, take pride and like that his son was hosting the card night.
So you'd want to set the boys up.
But then also, if they have a card night access.
then you probably have Cool Mom.
And Cool Mom's probably like making sure all the snacks are out there.
So I feel like either way at Card Night like that,
like you're going to have a pretty killer lineup of snacks and drinks and food.
And when you're the guy that's just like, oh, I'm just here hanging,
you get all that access to it.
Peanut Butter pretzels.
Big, big, big this night.
You go over and make a comment.
Oh, yeah, you're going to want to pick that up.
Shut the fuck up.
Yeah.
charge the music and charge of everything.
It's nice.
This actually made me think of another one.
I kind of want to toss it in.
You mind?
Sure, good.
When somebody's parents are having a party
and you go over there.
And also it's like, it's like 14, 15 parents party.
But like you and like seven dudes are like kind of there too.
And you're just like, you know, they're like, they're a sane.
cool stuff.
They're kind of like,
they're kind of drunk.
They're acting.
You have access to all their drinks and food.
Like, yeah,
my parents are having a party.
It's like,
another killer food spread.
Yeah.
And you know no matter what,
you can't really get that much trouble because.
Nope.
They're staying up.
They're staying up.
They're cool with you being there.
Somebody's dad is a Bluetooth speaker.
Right.
Cool dads are there.
Didn't that guy play for like the,
didn't,
he played on like the practice squad for like the.
He had a cup of coffee on the Colts practice squad,
but yeah,
he played a Purdue for three-year starter.
Like, damn.
Like, man,
I bet his knees are fucked up.
You still got it kind of.
Yeah.
Nice bread in the kitchen.
Full access to everything.
It's almost like,
it's almost like a little bit of a graduation party vibe.
Right.
stuff's out.
No one
of those parents
are eating at that party
because you know
all the bombs are
you know
they're all trying to
like impress
and not be a fat ass
the dad's
I don't know
they're just focused on beer
this one be in the garage
drinking you know
so like the mom
who's hosting
the parent party

Like, wow, is this really comfy
but also fun?
I'd like to stay in this kind of an environment.
Yeah, kind of a beat up couch.

Can I sleep here?
It's not too matching.
Like, nothing really matches too much.
There's like a common theme, but the theme is kind of just like there is no theme.
So it's nice and you feel cozy and comfy in there, but, you know, it's not like it's all just, well, this is my Notre Dame garage.
Or this is my Coca-Cola theme garage because I like collecting Coca-Cola stuff.
It's like, you know, it's like a picture of him and Vince Vaughn randomly in the 90s at a South Bend bar up there.
You're like, wow.
And there's like a poster of Larry Bird.
There's like a really nice

That's where he puts all the,
he sets his drink.

Mel's best underrated night.
I was thinking of this Saturday when I was at my sisters.
Mel's best underrated night, Sunday night of Labor Day weekend.
Whoa, specific.
I like it.
Give me the deets.
So my sister and her husband put up this new pergola outside in their backyard.
So they used to just have like a,
a back pavement area, you know, in their yard.
And so the sun would just like be, be down crazy on you, you know?
And so they finally order this like really big, really nice pergola that also has
the ability to have a projector screen.
And so they're talking about how like, yeah, like this fall we'll do or watch football
games.
And I was like, you know what?
This is screaming the perfect night.
Sunday night of Labor Day.
weekend. Everybody has Monday off. You're out there, a little chill in the air, you know you're heading
towards fall, and on TV is like a primetime Virginia Tech, Boise State game. You know, there's always
like some kickass this year to be Notre Dame, Wisconsin, but they have that, they have like two
amazing college football games now on that Sunday night of that first weekend. So, that's Labor Day
weekend. You're like, wow, we had Saturday.
we had probably a Fox Friday kickoff sick
we had Saturday all day the first day of college football
it's back rah rah everybody's playing
don't care if they're all cupcakes
you get a couple sprinkled in there
but you're back and that's all that matters
and then you got Sunday with the next day off
on a three day weekend
but like I said it's Florida State versus LSU
on the Sunday night on Labor Day
you're like what on a Sunday
that is so crazy when they do that
I'm like they knew.
They knew we were starving for this.
Yes.
You think it's over.
It's not.
You're probably,
you got like Papa Johns.
It's,
it's,
you're out,
you get the pergola set up where you go outside and watch it.
Maybe a little fire going because it's starting to get a little chill.
You're like,
fuck.
Yeah, dude.
We are back and it's so on.
And this is going to be my life for the next four months.
Target fire pit.
Exactly.
In the middle of it on the patio.
Didn't know what a pergola was until.
three minutes ago.
Yeah, basically just a back awning.
It pops off the backyard.
Exactly.
You got one of those like little structures back there?
Like I want to be sitting under it.
Yeah, because they got the couches too.
Like it's not just like bullshit.
Patio couch.
They got patio couch underneath the pergola.
So I'm like,
so I'll be Sunday night, Labor Day weekend.
Should we see what the girls are doing?
Yeah, and it goes back though, it goes back as well.
That's current, but it goes back to when you're in school because that's the first weekend of a long weekend.
That's your first holiday weekend.
It's that first breath of fresh air after being in school for like three weeks or whatever.
Finally be like, oh my God.
Oh, thank God.
Dang God.
We get that extra day a little bit more.
All those school weeks, I'm all tense.
Now we got a day off.
Finally.
It comes at the perfect time.
Exactly.
Long weekend.
That's all jammed into my pick there.
Last one.
Yep.
Kind of the opposite of what you said earlier.
When your homie has to spend the night on a school night and you have like a project to do.
School night?
It's crazy because it's like I've never seen.
You don't have to have a project do though.
Like you can get like I've had later on in my career where it was just like,
like school night.
So you're coming over?
Yeah.
And it's like you get to see like, wait, how do you get ready in the morning?
Like what's your, wait, when do you brush your teeth and all that?
What are your parents doing during this?
Is your mom watching Fox 59 too?
It's like a Wednesday.
It's like a Wednesday, but it's at like the end of the year because it's not that
serious anymore.
Hey, sun's up a little early.
Sons up.
Hey, you see their car parked on the side of your house.
you're like, oh yeah, you're driving us to school.
Should we go to McDonald's first?
Maybe my mom will give us like 10 bucks.
If nothing, just for that rush of energy
when it's like 10-15 that night
and you're like playing video games,
you're like, we're really doing it.
We're really doing it.
Yeah.
What is going on?
Nothing counts anymore.
It's really that last week of like senior year
when like nothing.
You don't have homework.
It's over.
Yep.
School night, spend the night.
School night's sleepover.
Yeah.
Can be pretty fun because, like, you know,
you're not going to get too wild, you know?
You can't.
You just can't.
Still under, yeah, it's, you got school.
But it's a, it's a fun realization of like,
oh, I'm at that point in my life where, like,
I'm going to be able to start doing whatever I want.
Pretty grown up.
Whenever I want to.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, all the different, all the different, like,
you'd be
or you'd be like eating
having dinner downstairs or like
chilling at like 9 o'clock
and so not just the morning routines
but then the evening routines too
like what news channel does his mom watch
what yeah what shows
they locked into yeah what shows
they locked into do him and do like
his parents on a Wednesday night
go have like a little wine out on the back patio
like what just
is his mom reading a fantasy novel with a glass of
wine too. What's going on here?
Yeah. What do you
guys talk about on a week night
at the dinner table? You know?
It is.
It's kind of like that first
doing that is kind of like that first break
and it's top of mind because I watched Truman
show on Sunday.
It's
kind of like that first break where you realize
like, oh
it's not just my life. Like everybody
else is also living
their routine and their life.
do that?
Did we get a moped
for some reason?
For some reason we had a moped.
My senior year
had homie spend the night,
school night,
last week of school,
Joe King.
opted out
of taking his car to school,
took our moped to school.
I was like,
I wouldn't even try that,
but you can,
you got it.
I just took my car,
hey,
passed him on the way to school.
Hey, hit him on the way to school.
Me catching him, him.
Hey, got to school late.
Nothing happened.
Nothing happened.
In my head, the whole day, I was like, where'd you park that?
I don't even care.
I don't know.
On the moped.
Georgetown shorts.
Two T-shirt.
One T-shirt, but one underneath it, too.
Oh shit.
Yeah, some either Georgetown or Sinty shorts on it.
I don't know why that got me so good.
Just the visual of joking.
So long, dude, flapping.
Jordan Spizikes on.
Like, not the Jordans, but like this, you know what I mean?
Spizikes.
Hey, helmet or not?
No way, bro
No way
They definitely supposed to have one on though
Like could get arrested
Couldn't find it kind of late
Oh shit
Oh

Just going so slow dude
Yeah
My mom's like

You're like what?
Like when did you guys have this conversation
His car is at my house all day
You're like what?
It's like really fun and cool
Until yeah like after school
You're like fuck he's like
My car is still there
Oh that is so funny
Just the dude
I know the gas station
stops at a gas station has like a gas station bag
of like some vitamin waters weirdly
And like some sunflower seeds
like pulling up to the parking spot
like with that bag
like on his right hands
kind of weighing down the
mopet a little bit on the road
you're like what that you went to the gas station
oh man
I know exactly what road you're talking about too
oh yeah

Oh shit
Hitting speed bumps in the school parking lot
Oh man
He's kind of swerving like going up to a hill too
Like just kind of like a little sort
You're like oh fuck
You're from behind you see like a little
Little hand twist
You're like Jesus dude
You're gonna get my mom in trouble
After school though
He's doing all kinds of stuff in the parking lot
just showing off.
You're like,
Tom's going to get so bad.
Found a way to make it just like going to circle on its own.
You know,
fires it up and like tilts the hand enough to where it just bringing.
Not even on it.
Oh, shit.
That's too funny.
Go ahead, go ahead.
you look at the window during econ it's just like taking up a full parking space with a kickstand down you're like dude
he could have just pulled up this side of the building he keeps telling you too he's like hey pointing out the window
just like so like just in the middle of the whole parking lot jam packed parking lot but just one space has a moped in here
I'm gonna get suspended how dumb does that look
It just perfectly parked in the middle of a parking spot.
And the best part, too, is that, you know, so many different, like, you know, those ladies
who, like, would work at school, but they, like, didn't really work at school.
They kind of, they kind of come and go, like, randomly.
And, like, you're kind of just like, I don't even, I know I got to call you miss.
but like I genuinely have no idea what you do here.
You know how many times they would like pull up into that spot
and then they had to back out because of mopeds there.
Yeah, it happens like seven times.
Just different people keep them coming in.
Oh, there's a spot here.
You run out for APC and see it.
You're like, you kind of see like the wood shop teachers
like kind of out there looking at it.
You're like, oh, no, dude.
Oh, God.
Blochop and janitor, you're like,
they know something's up.
I'm done for, bro.
I'm done for.
They know it's you too.
I think they saw me looking out the window at it.
Whoever parked the moped and the teacher's parking lot?
You're like, oh, my.
Damn.
A couple honorable mentions.
These are the best.
Well, we'll stick with the Sunday night theme.
Sunday night before Thanksgiving.
So Thanksgiving is coming up.
And, you know, you got Sunday night football.
Yeah, yeah, yep, yep, good feeling.
There's always a test that week.
Fun day.
Yeah, kind of dragging you down a little bit,
but that's why I didn't make the list.
But I still think that like, oh, shit.
Yeah, Thanksgiving, it's going down this week.
Friday night of the NFL draft.
So hype.
but not Thursday right
no Thursday
no the second and third round
way better than Thursday
Thursday's just like
it's it's too much to handle
it's honestly it's too much to bear
I love it got your big names
wow
it's a big field
Friday night
or Friday
ooh day you got some teams
taking some chances on some guys
oh no uh they took him there
Oh.
Mm-hmm.
Things are getting a little freaky, a little loose.
This is, it didn't make the list because I felt like it was too similar to one that did,
but the snowed in night.
Yeah.
Like, you know that you already know that the weather's so bad.
You already know that the weather is so bad that you don't, like,
everything's canceled the next day and you really can't go anywhere anyways.
for that night.
So just ran,
you know,
who knows what goes down that night.
No?
Who knows who is already there that stays there?
Who knows who,
who knows who decides to venture over?
Like,
yeah,
they just got to,
all it is two turns in one main road.
They're there and you're like,
oh,
fuck,
okay,
well,
if they want to do it,
I'm not going to say no.
Like that kind of shit.
That's where I first experienced,
uh,
the 2K room,
snowed in night.
There's like pockets of people.
all around the house. We all knew we were staying there.
Maybe till like 3 p.m. the next day.
So we were locked in. You're not going anywhere.
Nope.
You literally can't.
So there's, you know, I'm like visiting different like corners of the house, garage group,
kitchen group, living room group, other living room group.
I go upstairs for a second.
2K room.
Yo, you want to play?
All of a sudden, I'm getting like seven games in up there.
It's just like three guys.
You know, you got the two that are on the.
and then you got a third
that's always waiting for you
we got next.
He's in and out though too.
He's checking saying funny stuff every time.
Yeah.
Dude, we need to
next week or something
we need to do like
the anatomy of
all those rooms.
The garage group,
the living in the kitchen.
I love the kitchen group.
I'm always in the kitchen group.
That's where my heart is.
Yeah, for sure.
Sit on the counter.
So much fun is going down on the kitchen
Should we make something?
It's just easy access to everything
Probably usually good seating
Speakers usually in there
Yeah I'm good
Homeways
Living room I feel like too much
I guess we're just doing now
Living room yeah
See living room that's what that's for
Now you're right
The other living room was where like
He had some weird shit going on there
That's where like
That's where like Gerbach and Sophie
you're kind of fighting, but not like loud.
It's like, you just know.
Are they okay?
Okay.
Yeah, something's off.
There's like somebody's having heart to heart.
Someone's a yeah, a real annoying heart to heart.
Okay.
Girls crying, but for like not a bad reason, you're like, okay.
Yeah.
Let that play out.
Garage group, dangerous.
Dangy, that's a scary.
Hey, either that or.
Mm.
Kind of loud in there.
Not talking about the music.
A lot of killer traps hanging out in the garage.
Yeah.
A lot of Carhart's and Copenhagen's, the old C-C's.
Dude.
Yeah, it's always cold.
Never warm.
Never.
You're never in a garage when it's warm.
Plastic chairs.
In my experience.
It's always cold.
Always people braving it out.
Always got a little of the NFC.
of the house party.
Big time.
Oh my God.
Hey,
big guys are in the garage.
Not tall either.
Nope.
Line men nation in the garage.
Stretch mark friends in the garage.
NFC of the house,
exactly.
You kind of feel like,
can I be in here?
You feel like you need to ask them
for permission.
You're like,
totally.
How long can I be in here once I'm in here?
You got to gauge the temperature
in more than one way.
You know,
like,
is it too cool for me to be
out here.
It also is,
am I not a warm welcome?
Do you guys hate me?
That,
the garage group,
it's,
it's instantaneous,
you know right away.
You open the door,
it's warm,
it's warm.
You open the door,
everybody turns and looks,
go back out.
Go back out.
Yeah.
You know,
you know what's going on in here.
That's where for me,
2K room is kind of like,
it's aFC.
You can,
you can warm,
You can work your way into it.
You know?
Maybe if you don't,
maybe it's not a huge reaction when you enter the room.
But even if it's not,
you just kind of focused on other things.
They're focused on other things.
And like if you come in there and you don't make yourself everybody else's problem,
you can warm up to it.
And all of a sudden,
you're a part of 2K room.
All of a sudden,
you're like laying on the bed in the room while two people are playing 2K
and you're like making little comments on the game.
Getting some dubs,
getting some laughs.
Mm-hmm.
Found my room.
Hey, one of them offers you to chew.
you don't even chew i'll take it yeah now we're talking now i'm in the 2k room yeah you know but
you go outside yeah you go in the garage they're kind of talking about some they're kind of
on that floor no you got talking they're kind of talk about some scary shit though yeah a lot of
pocket knives on belt out there a lot of stories where they're talking you're like they did what
to that kid man i definitely am not going to talk out here
talking about guns.
You're like, I don't know how to shoot those.
Never held one.
Yeah, you kind of gauge it out there for a little bit.
Maybe you want to cool off.
Maybe there's one of your boys that you haven't seen out there
for a good amount of time or something.
You really want to try to catch up.
So you go make the effort.
But then you're like, I think I'm just going to sneak back in the kitchen here.
I don't think I'm going to go down to South Beach
and warm myself up a little bit.
Better sense of humor in the kitchen a little bit.
You're like, these guys kind of get my jokes a little more.
They're just drunker.
Garage is like, there's like a girl in the garage that's dipping.
You're like, what?
There's a dog in there in the garage.
Yeah.
Yeah, all of a sudden the dog becomes your responsibility.
Like that group's responsibility.
Because host of the party is definitely in the kitchen or having a heart to heart in the weird room.
You know?
Yeah, I guess I'll take care of this dog.
Does you go to the bathroom?
Hey, garage is open like this much.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But you're like, it's so fucking cold.
Yeah, but the people in the garage don't even feel it.
No.
They're just locked in.
But you know that dude.
You know the dude who is hosting the party.
Like, he'll freak out if you don't have the garage all the way.
Or if you don't have, if you have the garage shut because he doesn't want the smoke smelling up his garage, his parents garage.
one of those dudes
are just like,

Let's go to...
You should we go to here?
Let's go to Walker, who says Daiske Matsuzaka.
The gyro ball?
I remember the gyro ball.
Yeah.
Walker says,
Hi, pity ladies.
Daywin listener a long time since I've emailed
to the program. Since this isn't a baseball
pot, I've wanted to drop by the
station and put some respect on how sick the name
Daiske Matsuzaka was back
in that day. I mean, phonetically,
it literally sounds like
dice K, yes, sir. Two things you
want out of your Japanese pitcher who doesn't
speak a lick of English. Dicing the line up
and racking up K's. Also,
why did his number 18 look so
crispy on the back of the Red Sox Uni? Something
about the wide block number
gets me. I appreciate you guys.
keep killing it, clubhouse forever, hit me in the dome with a Jacob Mizoroski fastball and slap my
ass as I'm being loaded onto the stretcher, Walker, sent from hell, parentheses, I live in Arizona.
Yeah, surface of the sun, but not as hot as you, lady.
Hi, lady.
Hot, hot, hot lady.
Hot stuff, lady.
Dice K. Matsuzaka.
Jesus Christ, man.
The amount of times I heard that on.
Sports Center.
But like old
Sports Center.
Dice K.
A lot of
God.
Top name.
Who's the other
old white guy

Baseball night.
Dude.

Nope, not that Peter baseball tonight.
Peter Gammons!
I love Peter Gammons.
Dude, the amount of times I've heard Peter Gammons say Dice K. Matsuzaka.
I love Peter Gammons, bro.
Peter Gammons, saw guy.
Same guy?
Peter Gammons, how tall?
Peter Gammons, jigsaw.
Same guy.
Man, Peter Gammons.
height.
Peter
Peter.
I'm going to go
here's a wild one for you.
I'm going to go Peter
Gammon 6-1.
There's no way
Peter Gammon's
5-7.
Ah, yeah.
I mean, that was,
I was trying to.
I thought it was weirdly 6-3.
Yeah.
I was like,
was he a pitcher?
Was he on the mound?
Was PG on the mound?
I was trying to go,
you know,
5-7 was like minus 120.
I was trying to go,
you know,
plus 410 on the odds that maybe he was maybe he's like he got he's like a he's like a
larry david type to me i feel like peter gamins is kind of like larry david yeah the amount of
times i heard that and about the gyro ball what is that it's like a pitch that dyeske
montezaka created or like had it in his arsenal and yeah i remember i think that there's a guy
and indie who I think he was
like running a racket where he was
claiming that he could teach people
the gyro ball and
I remember he came into like where I used to like
practice and train and stuff and was trying
to teach people the gyro ball
it's like a different kind of pitch
yeah it's just some I think it's just
a mix of a few different pitches that
broke a way that it should normally break
and whatnot

Mel's Best Available Movies that annoys the Pili-Lity in your life when you put them on.
Oh my God.
Oh, my God.
He says, for him, he says, Rounders.
Actually, just watched that for the first time a couple weeks ago and really enjoyed it.
Matt Damon, Edward Norton.
I love the show, fellas.
Wish you guys would talk about sports on here, but I know that's not your thing.
See you in Phoenix, Scottsdale one day.
smack my ass with hand towels in the bathroom.
We weren't allowed to ever use as a kid.
Gabe and Scottsdale.
Good email.
Great email.
I'd love to get out to Arizona.
Yeah, I remember you saying that before, Gabe, about us coming out there.
Yeah, that's even more wild in Arizona bringing home to fall candles right now because, as we just
heard from Walker, fellow Arizona clubhouse member, surface of the sun there, hot, I'm sure.
But fall don't sleep for anybody.
The fall marketing certainly doesn't sleep for anybody.
Dude, last year was a weird year, though, where, like, people were acting like Halloween wasn't happening.
Remember that?
Yeah.
It was really, it was bad.
We were, like, we talked about it forever.
We're like, it was like three days before and people were still like, yeah, whatever.
I feel like we missed out on a lot of Halloween commercials last year.
For some reason, I feel like I, or maybe I, this might have been my complaint.
is that they were all playing at like the end of August and beginning of September.
And I was like, I know that like your marketing campaign is probably not worth it in October because it's, you know, that you're trying to cash in on that long run.
Like, I don't give a shit.
Buy it out.
I want to hear Will Arnett talking about Reese's cups in October.
I want to see the Eminem, Pina Eminem is on my screen.
I want to like just.
Can somebody wear fangs for the love of God?
What do we do?
Can I get a Dracula cape?
Can we get Mike and Mike to do their show just for October, just for Halloween week so they can dress up?
Bolts on necks?
Come on.
Yeah, I mean.
Movies that make your girlfriend mad?
Movies that make your girl bad.
That would be fun.
Hey, huh?
You know what it is?
I got, I go.
Go ahead.
Eight crazy nights.
Like the Adam Sandler cartoon one?
How fast.
I got the exact complaint.
It's just like really bright and annoying.
It's always really bright.
Hey, can you like turn this down?
Any of the animated shows, movies, it's just like bright and just loud.
Cartoons, girls in cartoons just don't even try.
Yeah, can't.
Not meant to be, babe.
And especially he's like being like super.
annoying with his voice, like on purpose,
you know, the whole time.
It's a technical phone.
Yeah, it's so bad.
And you catch your,
you catch your singing it like the next day.
You're like, oh. Okay.
Gotcha.
He didn't like it last night,
but now you're saying technical valve.
Okay.
That's interesting about rounders.
It's a very guy movie.
I mean, it's just, you know,
Matt Damon and Edward Norton playing poker.
But still, it's like,
you know, it's good.
It's a good, you know, you're kind of into it.
Action movies.
See, like, it's interesting with my wife,
because I wouldn't say that like anytime I put on a movie,
she's like, I don't like it turn up.
For her, that's more like shows or,
I don't even know, like sketches or Instagram videos or something,
TikTok's like that shit.
She's like, no, I just don't want to know.
I don't want to like it.
movies it's like she's just so far removed that she when she knows that a movie's coming on
she's just like i i just get to like be on my phone and not care
because any movie that i actively tried to like hey like let's she can kind of get down with
you know she'll like making an effort to be like okay like you you clearly said like
something in there right one thing that is funny that i say it's for in my situation my
situation.
It's not so much about that as it is
every movie
that I watch with my
pity
right about the hour 10 mark.
Is this movie literally six hours
long? God.
Not now.
Not now. Now I can tell the
whole movie you're just waiting for it to be
over. And you can't
recover from that because now all you're
there sitting and just thinking about like God,
doesn't even know though there's literally like 45 minutes more and like the best part it hasn't even
happened right yeah but like you know that she's checked out so she's not gonna like it
every time cook I can I can feel it coming I can almost predict at any certain point of the movie
that we're watching because like I said I've already seen them and I'm like hey like I really like this
I think you'll like it it's really good who's watching it like I can pinpoint when it when it's
going to come I can feel it dude like a spying sense
go imagine saying that to your girl when she picks out the movie
how rude
yeah just on is this ever gonna end
princess diaries yeah
it like means a lot how much longer we got here
because you know what means something to do you have something to do
do you have something better to do
we're gonna be up all night watching this crap like that's pretty much
what she's saying to you
uh-huh and in that that movie to you is like
Yeah, it's like
Goodwill hunting.
Yeah, it's like I cry every time I watch that movie.
Hour and 10,
they're like to like the third meeting with Sean and Will.
Like nothing.
You know,
you have all the,
all the important heart-wrenching,
like emotional moments still to come.
I just feel like this movie is like six hours long.
Or like you're super into it and you're like,
oh, she's locked into.
You look over at her.
Hey, would rather.
Rather than be asleep, you're locked into it.
It's like, wow, yeah, this is all you look over.
Oh, my God.
Like, the movie's so bad that you're watching TikTok on no volume.
Like, it's that bad?
Like, damn.
This is the-
For my movie.
This is the Empire Strikes Back.
What more needs to be said?
Have some respect for my movie.
Please?
Like, at least, like, protect.
tend to watch.
Yeah.
So it's not so much about the movie itself.
It's just like the movie watching experience and my situation is more of the hurdle to get over rather than the movie that's being on being like, I want to leave the rear of this movie.
I just can't do it with this.
You trying to watch the town tonight?
Yeah.
I'm like, they haven't been robbed the bank yet.
I know.
I think we watched this for two and a half hours.
Just, oh my God.
I know you don't know, but they like put on nun masks and like it goes hard.
They haven't robbed the stadium.
Can you just like have a little poise?
How bad do I want to be that one of those those nuns?
Great a group of us.
Those nuns.
I know.
The cop sees him and he's like.
Looks away.
Goes too hard.
He's like, right.
He's like, they're on that shit.
All right.
I understand.
I want to best with that.
I'm good off that.
I'm good off that.
A little too much for me right now.
You're,
look at you with the town.
Now,
yeah,
misses the whole thing.
Hey,
you got to,
dude,
you got to be,
it feels like such a bitch
because you're like,
oh,
wait,
blue this part.
You almost rewind it.
No,
don't.
Don't rewind it.
You're like,
oh my God.
Now you're the boss.
I thought this is mine.
It's all that is,
is all of that.
the worst or is movie or super excited excited to show to show her she sit down happens wow
maybe caught her doing a little TikTok scroll maybe only twice in like a two hour 10 minute
long movie so you're like all right i think you got through yeah credits rolling wow what'd you
think it was a movie oh my god
why don't I just kill myself
why don't I just kill both of us right here
like it's like that
it's that serious bro
like that was your
the whole thing
and you're like I didn't like
direct this movie like
this is like a pretty high rated movie
in theaters like what is
Martin Scorsese
Robert De Niro
yeah I mean
she's blaming the movie on you
yeah I mean it was
it was fine.
Like I,
you know,
I,
there's a couple parts
that I thought were cool,
but.
I guess I'm never picking the movie again.
Okay.
Just like,
this is just like a big basis
of how I live my life
and like what I believe in.
But yeah.
Yeah.
It's my whole entire existence.
It's all right.
Sorry,
I adopted my personality from this movie
and you hate this movie.
Therefore,
you hate me.
So what's the point of going forward?
So why are we,
together after a movie.
Risky.
So why are we dating?
Hey, here's a little bit dating advice
for anybody in the clubhouse.
Man, I think you,
I say no movies really
until you're like five years in the marriage.
Five years.
Yeah, until it's just like, yeah,
like it's at the point where you're like,
okay, like I don't like some of the shit
that she likes or does.
She doesn't like some of the shit that I like or do,
but like, yeah, whatever.
Like, we're in this.
You, you're dating a girl for 10 months
and you have like a Goodfellas night.
Yeah.
And you watch Goodfellas and she either falls asleep,
is looking at her phone the whole time or just like, eh, I don't know.
I just, whatever.
You're not coming back for that.
Yeah.
And then a fight happens.
Because then all of a sudden you start panicking and realizing like,
wow, we are really different.
Like this is, you know, I've been meaning to talk to you about.
Yeah.
And then it's just all because she said Goodwill hunting was just a movie.
Can really spiral a relationship.
Movie night.
Make or break.
Okay.
Didn't want to watch X-Men Origins Wolverine?
All right.
Well, why are you here?
Keeping that one in the back of the head there.
Yeah.

Okay.
