Everything. Dude, I get God every year on April Fool's.
With a uniform reveal.
A uniform reveal?
Remember the Colts did that? I was like, guys,
you got to be good to drop in April Fool's like uniform reveal.
Those were like the Curtis Painter days when they're doing that.
I was like, come on, dude.
bro one time when I was a kid my dad told me a train just took out the marsh that we always went to and I cried dude
what a cruel I cried April I was like no way he was like yeah train just got derailed and just crushed it
I was like no that's a marsh we always rent movies at you know what I mean that's that's like our home
groceries I was like no way we drove by it it just looked beautiful as ever I was like no
Did he hate you?
April fools, B.
Every year something happens
or like the first tweet you see
and you're like, what? And then you're like, oh,
April Fool's. What a psycho.
Jesus.
Yeah. Hey, Ben,
your mom fell off a cliff and splattered.
She's dead.
I love it, bro.
I love it, bro.
I'm down with that.
You always have the,
because it always gets sit in the group
chat, right? Whatever the tweet or the uniform reveal or piece of news that's fake gets
sit in the group chat. And you always have the one friend that immediately is like April
fools dog. They're like, bro, it's April 1st. Like, it's not real. And you're like, oh, damn,
I'm an idiot. I'm an absolute golden retriever moron. Always get me on that one, dude. Because I,
like, who really knows the date? Come on. What friend of mine do you think that that is? That sends you
that shit?
No, that, like,
immediately,
he's just like,
it's April Fool.
It's April Fool.
Andy Ward.
Andy would be the one
who would send it.
Dylan is the one
that's like,
it's April fools, dog.
He'd be like,
oh, it's just so whack.
Just makes you feel so dumb,
bro.
Yeah, I'm like,
ah, I was kind of excited
in it a little bit.
But yeah,
fuck that.
Shit's so whack.
Dude, the friend that just, I don't know, man, just everything sucks, you know.
They're just, they're never, they're all, you know, they're the friend that like,
they're the friend that didn't believe in Santa when they were like four.
God, just fucking have some fun.
Yeah, they're just like so black and white from like the moment they come out of the womb.
You're like, damn, dude.
I mean, I still want to believe in Santa.
Like, can you commit?
Like, just fuck, just goof around a little bit about it.
Doesn't have to be so cut.
I know it's not real, but like, can you just fake it for a little bit just for me, for fun?
You mentioned your home Marsh.
So you had like fond memories of your childhood grocery store.
Like you, you had a tie to that place.
Big time.
Marsh and Meyer, just depends on, I don't know, we mixed it up a little bit.
Marsh had movies, like we rented movies there.
This was like when I was like, eight.
Damn, that's wild. That's before Redbox, way before.
Oh my God. How do they, that the fuck they do that? Huh? How do they do that?
They just had like a, they just, they had a little back room, bro, and they just had like a mini blockbuster in there.
Nice. They just had their own, like, movie system. It was really weird. It probably was like kind of illegal now that I think about it.
So they didn't have like licenses to those movies, I guess. They were making. So they had, they had purchased those movies.
to sell, but instead of selling them, they're putting them up to rent so then they could just
keep slinging them. Yep. And there's like a person working the door and there's just be like,
you know, uh, home alone or some shit. Tom and Huck. Like Huggler-Bern?
What of those, yeah, I don't know. One of those weird movies and then there'd be like three behind
them. They'd have some hot releases though. I was like, yeah, we got to watch that.
See, I'm the exact opposite, dude. Me and my sister were like, like, we, I'm just now.
going back to Meyer as a 30-year-old man because my I we grew up pretty pretty pretty pretty
near the same spot and Meyer down there that was like our childhood grocery store and I don't
know what it was just fucking sucked going grocery shopping man it was always like Monday like 515
the sun was in that weird spot we were like God I got to like go do my homework and then I
got to go to bed and I saw I got school the rest of the week yeah mom wouldn't ever get you any
fun shit, right? It was like she had
the list. It was just like, no.
Business trip. Right.
Man, I stayed
away from Meyer, like I said, for like
20 years. And now I'm just starting
to go back. I'm like finally getting
over that childhood PTSD
of, oh, Monday night
grocery shopping with mom.
Oh, bro. That's a bad feeling.
I was getting yelled at in the store.
Don't touch that, you know.
Stay by the cart.
Just so bored.
Can't go look at the fun shit.
Like you had to just be in the produce.
I don't give a fuck about these cold cuts.
Your mom looking at a pan for like way too long.
I'm like, and she's on the phone.
You're like, oh my God.
Like, I can't do anything here.
Yeah, my dad would be the one calling and he had to like, you know,
kind of work a little bit later.
So she's already kind of like flustered because she got the kids at the grocery store.
Dad's like working late.
So then he's going to be pissed.
So you're like, oh, we're going to go home to dinner.
and it's just going to be a giant fucking stress fest.
Great.
Stress fest.
Never get to look in the toys.
Like my dream as a kid would be like,
y'all be in the toy aisle,
you just do your thing.
Hell no.
That would never happen, bro.
The closest I got was like my mom would be looking at like the romance novels
and I'd give a look at the magazines, you know.
Check out a little sports illustrated.
The college football one.
A little college football preview.
Like the regional guys would be on the cover, you know?
Yeah, you're like Ohio State's best three players.
You'd be like, oh.
Troy Smith, Brian Hartline.
And then you open it up and it's all like the gambling one.
You're like, God damn it, you know.
I don't even know what this means.
Where are these numbers?
All the pages are white and black inside.
I'm like, why did you make the cover look so cool?
Here.
Yeah, it's like that time of the year, that's like when school has really started
so you didn't really have any homework, you know?
so you're still kind of feeling good.
Maybe preseason NFL games on that night,
like Monday night football.
That's the best shit.
Hey,
you got football practice after school.
You're like,
brother,
there's a preseason game tonight.
And it's the first day of school.
So we like don't have homework yet.
Right.
Dude,
I always,
I always wanted that to like just keep going for weeks,
you know?
Like, dude,
what if they just don't assign homework like for the next three weeks?
Like how long can we get away with this?
I think Ms. Schmidt
it might be a lot of just like in-class work.
Like if we're good, we sure won't send us home with stuff.
You know, you start having those conversations.
That rumor.
Yeah.
Bro, last year they said they didn't get homework until after Christmas.
I think it's just kind of like, you know, a lot of in-class work.
And then, you know, there's like some tests.
So like you got to study for the test eventually.
But like it's not a lot of homework that you got to go do.
Dude, that's the way to do it right there if you're a teacher.
You live off that.
You live off that for like a.
day and a half and then the next day
fucking six worksheets. You're like
damn. She must have changed
up for like her teaching lessons or something.
An annotated bibliography.
Fuck. But that first
day of school was kind of hard because you're
like, all right, it's the first day of school, but we're not getting
homework tonight. No.
So that was always like the silver lining.
Oh, first day of school.
Everybody's got the
shoes. Who's in my home room.
You get to wear your new shoes. Everybody's
rocking it, you know what I mean? Like, they got the freshest for the first day of school.
Like the weird crusty smelly kid and even weird crusty smelly because it's the first day.
His hair. He's got the wave. Like, damn, Tyler did his hair. You're like, am I getting,
wait, where's my, where's my new flirt? Where am I getting my new flirt on? You know? Like, this chick
I was kind of talking with last year that I was into, but all of a sudden summer break did
something crazy for this chick. She kind of hot now? Am I in love?
Are we talking on AIM after this?
Is Amelia kind of hot?
Hey, hey, you see her and her mom at Meyer afterwards after school?
Don't even.
Never been more embarrassed, bro.
Holy shit, I think I just saw Amelia.
She was the nerdy girl last year.
Now all of a sudden it's like, oh my God, I can't even.
Now she's hot and smart on top of the world.
Hey, us though, like for where we grew up like we're still in our uniform.
She's like changed out into something that's like kind of sporty, hot.
And you're like, wow, I'm an absolute fucking schmuck in my school uniforms.
I still wouldn't idiot.
I still have school pants walking around in Meyer right now.
Grass stains on my knees.
Hey, we're, your mom's yelling at you.
Amelia's right there.
I don't care about Amelia.
You're like, oh my God.
Bro, is there anything.
worse.
Seeing people from school or from anywhere somewhere else.
I'm like, oh my God, this sucks.
Seeing your teacher at the store, I was like, we got to get the fuck out of here.
Not real.
Dude, even my mom would be like, you're right.
Let's go to the marsh.
We can't.
Mrs. Collins is here.
Like, dude, that's weird.
You're lucky because my dad would go out of his way to go and greet them and have a conversation with them.
that probably score some points for you like on the back end though so he kind of was thinking like
uh joey's got a got a 76 on the science test but his dad's kind of cool bump him to an 80
probably worse than that bro i used i was in the 36 to 42 range for a while there on some science
test you're failing like that yeah dude i thought i was the only one that was just straight
bombing dude i i knew i knew as a 12 year old i was like i'm
This is, I'm not ever using this.
This is not anything to do with me at all.
I don't care.
As long as I don't have a fucking F, big red F on my report card, don't care.
Sorry, Mom.
Sorry, I'm not an honor roll.
I'll do well in social studies.
I'll do well in history.
Maybe I'll get like a B minus in math because it's kind of fun to like, you know,
figure out the equations and like you feel like, if you tell your parents that you did something good in math, they're like, oh, fuck.
It's totally different.
I'm like, hey, I got an A on my English paper.
Oh, okay.
Hey, I got a B plus on this math test worth 100 points.
Whoa.
Totally different reaction.
Yeah, true.
I was fighting for my life for everything, bro.
Oh, my God.
Everybody wants to be good at math.
It's just not happening for me.
It's just not it.
I don't have it.
Well, that's where I was like, okay, math, at least I'm like, yeah, this, I see where I'm going
to need to, yeah.
some of the stuff.
Science, bro?
Ecosystem?
Might as well have been fucking Saturn.
Ecosystem?
Not even that.
Like all the cells and the chemistry.
Like, oh, what?
Come on.
My ass.
That was me from the jump, dude.
Hey, how about when you get a,
you get assigned a project or something?
Yeah.
And it would be something that was, like, pretty hands-on
or like science fair is coming up.
Burpee boy.
Whoa.
And you would have to go to the store to get supplies.
And you always would run into like a handful because everybody would be doing the same shit.
Late night.
Got to get your trifold poster board.
Yeah.
Everybody in the same section.
You have to like peek your head around and be like, oh, fuck.
Is there anybody?
Okay.
Go, go, go, go.
It just seemed like we had four months to do science fair.
but I always did it the last week.
How about the kids that really didn't try it all
in Science Fair?
You're like, could have been me.
You're getting arrested one day.
Like just wrote impermanent marker on the board.
I was like, bro, you don't have parents.
You don't.
Your mom looked at that and was like, okay.
I'm starting to feel bad now.
Like you do kind of feel bad for them.
You're like, dude, how about not?
even the week, not even the week before. How about the night of? I was getting a lot of work done
the night of. It got to a point where my parents were like, all right. He knows he's got like
an eight hour bender here that he's going to have to just lock in. So it's all it took though.
I think it, looking back, you didn't need four weeks. Right. But you always had, you always had the,
you always had the Sophia Gillams of the world
where she'd be like a week into getting the project assigned
she'd be like, yeah, I've already done my research
and have my board cut out and everything put together.
I just have to like finish taping these things and I'm done.
I don't like those kind of people, dude.
Because I think that I was,
when I say I would almost break my neck from turning and being like,
huh?
Can't even imagine.
You're already done.
So what are you doing now?
I can't even spell hypothesis.
Dude, I just imagine those people that get done early.
I imagine they just go home and watch Disney every day for like four hours,
then eat macaroni and go to bed.
I'm like, what is your life?
Hey, but I was...
They live by the school.
I'm like, you're just perfect, huh?
Fuck you.
And your golden retriever, dude.
Like, dude, do something...
Here's the deal, though, is I was also kicked up with the gold fish
and pardon the interruption on,
except I hadn't started yet.
So we were just on opposite ends.
So we're doing the same shit.
Oh, okay.
So I had to sacrifice one night of stress and misery
for nine hours to log in and do it.
Big deal.
Still got a fucking 86 and I'm fine.
86, dude.
The things I would do for an 86 on anything.
I'm so down for an 86.
I think that's where my love of Heinz Ward came from.
initially. Oh, that's true. It was just like, yes, dude. I know if I get an 86 on anything,
I am in the clear. It's solid. My parents are like, yeah, all right. You know, they're not like,
wow, way to go, son, but they're also not fucking sitting me down and, and ripping my ass. 86, it's
like, that's solid. That'll get you into some school. This guy knows what he's doing. That'll get you
into some school. 86 even looks better than like an 88 sometimes. It's pretty, very,
distinctive. Yeah, you're like, I'm proud.
How about when you would, when you found out that, you know, your cousins who went to
non-Catholic schools or, you know, public schools or whatever, they would compare their grading
scale to yours? You'd be like, an 81 is a B? Yeah, you're like, what are you guys doing
over here? You'd be like, I would be a fucking honor student. What the hell? How about when you
figured out your cousins were so much smarter than you. I was like,
dude, I have a cousin that I am convinced could probably like run the world. He might already.
All my cousins. Everybody I know. Straight A's. I'm like, what is going on here?
Yeah, she's on a high honor roll again. She's going to get into Notre Dame. I'm like,
what happened? I'm out here cheating my dick off. Uh-huh. No chance, dude.
Dude. Getting 71. Sign the test. Have your parents sign the test when you get home. Have your dad sign it. That's crazy.
Dude, Mrs. Jaffe one time. Have your dad sign it. I was like, fuck off, dude. My dad doesn't even know I go to school.
Did she know? Did she know? Like, was she, were you, were you picking up on Amy's signature and just getting away with it?
No, dude. Just my dad was like, my dad, finally like I, my grades were like, eh.
And my dad just had enough, dude.
And I think he, like, called one of the teachers and was like,
what the fuck is going on here?
And that's like the first they ever heard of my dad.
So they're like, oh, Ben's dad's like invested.
You know what I mean?
So I get like a, you know, I'm trying real hard.
Like I'm asking questions.
I'm going up there after.
I don't get this.
I don't get that.
I end up getting a 74 after studying my ass off.
Yeah, have your dad sign this one.
I was like,
I'm toast.
I'm done.
Dude, how about,
did you ever have
where you would get home
and your parents
would just slide a piece of paper
across the table
and it would be like a printed out email
from one of your teachers?
Dear Mr.
Mollanero,
I wanted to contact you
because Joey has really been struggling
with everything
in Maldrum 2.
Dude, imagine you're a parent reading that.
You just got to be like this dumb fuck.
It's coming for me in like 10 years.
Oh, for sure.
This doesn't give a shit.
Dude, all this guy wants to do is go home and play NFL Street.
You know my punishment for Frank is going to be if something like that happens?
What?
I'm going to go take him to an open mic night and say, get up there and do five.
Holy hell.
What a punishment.
Hey, but also it's on the back end, it's like, if he gets a laugh for two,
It's like, hey, see, son, like, you don't need that fucking school shit.
You can do that.
That's a really good idea.
And it gets him working on, you know what I have a kid now.
Just drop that on you.
Drop five real quick.
Oh, man, I got a 68 on this test.
My dad grounded me for two weeks.
Oh, man, I got a 54 on this math exam.
My mom took away my PS7.
Frankie, you didn't do well either. What happened, man? Are you, you all good? I yeah, my dad just took me to crackers and maybe do five.
The owner called me a bitch. I got heckled a little bit, but I got a laugh at the end, so finish strong.
Dude, can you imagine doing an open mic when you're like 14? No. Oh, I can do it. I can barely imagine doing an open mic now when I'm 30.
I know. Every day I'm like, man, the way I don't want to do this.
It's pretty much presenting science fair. That's your first open mic.
Yeah. It really is. You got a PowerPoint presentation, bro. You're doing a hot five in front of your hot people in your class.
In front of Amelia, who all of a sudden blossomed over the summer. Can you imagine that? Like, what were they thinking?
when we were up there presenting.
Like, what a dumb ass.
I was really just trying to make my friends laugh, right?
Oh, yeah.
Weren't you the whole time?
Yeah, because, hey, what?
Dude, I did this thing.
This is so, so high school me, bro.
When my friends would be presenting, uh, anything,
I was always in the front row for some reason.
I would just stare right at their dick the whole time.
Hey, for, a solid 12 minutes, me.
I'm stupid.
And they would just look at me and be like, God damn it.
God damn it
See I never had that
I just had like
I just had some idiots
who I mean they're just
you know
just classic faces and shit
or they were like
be sitting next to kind of a weird chick
and like
and I look at them
and when I looked at them
they'd be like this close
to the chick's face
just like this
nothing funny
and the chick like
didn't know what they do
like the poor girl
you know
and so then you like
kind of feel bad
for her, but you can't help but just laugh your ass off.
Breaking in front of a teacher like that that you couldn't break in front of up there.
Oh, man.
It's so funny.
Acting like you're giving somebody head and shit.
Who's not?
It's so awkward.
You're like, God.
Tough.
The best.
Yeah.
Those were.
That's another thing where some of your friends are like, God, how do you just like,
not have the balls, but just the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the disregard to do something like
that. Because I'd be like, I'm sorry. This is, I don't, I'm putting you in a weird spot. You know,
I'm too, like, concerned and self-conscious about that. Oh, you like, you don't want them to mess up.
Like those friends, I would just literally be like, right in their ear and shit.
Dude. Oh, man. That was me because they would do that to me. So I was like, all right. Like,
I'm going to get you back.
Man.
During everything, bro, we'd be maxing out an APC.
And I'd have Joe King in the back, like,
Oh, yeah.
Like, yeah, your Joe King is my Jordan Reeser.
And it was so funny, but I was like, bro, like, just damn.
We're dropping names.
We're dropping names today, baby.
They're dropping them.
These guys.
It's a big inside joke.
T.J.
Inside base.
baseball in the clubhouse.
So did you do anything for Easter?
Absolutely not.
I can't remember how your family feel.
Because I know, I know you're of Christmas routine,
but like the Easter routine for you guys,
was it even a thing ever?
Dude, we hit the holidays real hard and real traditional
until I was about 13 or 14.
Once I got to high school,
It was kind of like, are we going there this year, you know, to see the family in Michigan.
We don't know.
Hit or miss.
Always hit Christmas, though.
Being the youngest, yeah, you were just, I think it explains a lot about you.
But by the time they got to you, they were just like, yeah, I mean, whatever.
But like until eighth grade, dude, we were hiding the baskets at my grandparents, waking up.
I can't find mine.
Dude, one time I couldn't find my Easter basket for like probably like 43 minutes.
Oh, wait.
We do that.
The Easter bunny would come and then he would hide your basket?
Yeah, I forgot.
We've talked about this before.
You don't do that, but mine did.
They'd hide our shit.
Whoa.
So like part of the was like, where is it?
Interesting twist.
There'd be like a family kind of Eastery basket on the table.
It was like, oh, that's for everyone.
So I'd go, oh my God, we got, we got mini Twix eggs.
I'd pop a couple Twix eggs in, look for my basket.
A family Easter basket?
Yeah, it was kind of like, you know, probably just like the rest of the candy.
Yeah.
But to make it look good, you know, there'd be grass all over the table.
There'd be some, you know, some eggs got a little fucking,
you know, Hershey kiss or a quarter in there or something.
Bro, my family did it big on the candy.
They king size, you know what I mean?
Mm-hmm.
But like we'd see that throw a few jelly beans in.
I wonder where my basket is.
And I kind of underestimated.
We'd have my grandparents.
So I underestimated my grandma and grandpa.
Like they're not going to hide it well.
Bro, they would mess with you.
Put some time.
Yeah.
Like in the basement closet.
Like I didn't even know we could go down here.
Yeah.
They're kind of afraid to.
Yeah.
By your.
Grandparents basement
Tough
What's going on down here
But yeah
It took me a really long time
One time
Like I like my sisters
Found their baskets
And they had to like help me
Because I was like yo
I
For a while they're like
Find it
We're not helping you
And then it took too long
They're like
We're getting ready for church
I was like I still can't find it
I was all
Yeah
I always like
I think that it's a good
Easter's a good case study
for expectations, right?
Because you go into it and you're like,
I mean, it's Easter.
The basket's not going to be,
it's not going to be anything great,
maybe some chocolate, right?
It's just an Easter basket.
It's not Christmas.
And then lo and behold,
I always came away being like,
damn,
I got that big of a basket?
Like, you're putting like gift cards in there and shit?
Yeah, once you start getting some gift cards,
it turns into a whole different thing.
I kind of like Easter.
All of a sudden,
Easter's cracking top five.
Yeah.
I got an iTunes gift card.
Right.
How about the kid
that would get like
need for speed?
You know what I mean?
Oh yeah.
You guys are getting PSC.
You guys are getting GameCube games
in your basket?
Bro, what?
Dude, had a kid
who got the pair of Carmelo Anthony shoes
when I was in fifth grade for Easter.
That kid can go right
to hell.
Yeah, dude.
Carmelo Anthony's shoes.
Insane.
You remember those?
When he was first,
when he was first with the nuggets.
Oh,
I know.
I had them,
but I had to,
I had to work,
I had to cut grass for an entire summer to get them.
Those were slick,
man.
Those white and light blues in the basket.
Dude,
can you even?
No,
they weren't even the white and light blues.
They were like,
the black alternate,
like the ones that you're like,
you got those from somewhere.
Those aren't on the market.
What?
Yeah, those are East Bay.
For sure.
East Bay Cop.
Dude, Chiller got a basketball hoop for Easter.
I was like, how like, that's just their parents just being like, there has to be a reason for getting it, you know?
You can't just get them something to get it because then that sets a standard.
But if it's for Easter, then it's like, yeah, at least it's for Easter.
Yeah.
A random present like that is insane.
Did you ever ask for anything for Easter?
No, I didn't know I could.
I mean, either.
I was like, all right, candies.
Candies where it's at.
Yeah, let's get candy.
Yeah, asking for something for Easter just sounds insane to me.
It sounds like who do you think you are?
You entitled little bitch.
Can I get a basketball hoop for Easter?
Whoa.
It would have been a good like toss out, you know, just to see, see if they bite, you know?
Because what do you got to lose?
Yeah, maybe they do.
Maybe the Easter Bunny's feeling good this year, right?
Hope you're hoppy.
Guys on Easter, should we re-release that?
I don't know, maybe.
I don't think we ever did.
That's in the archives.
No, I think I've, we've released it, but I can't remember if I put it out again last
Easter or something.
Guys on Easter, bro, we've done them all.
We need to do another last name one.
That was so fun.
people love the people
I've posted
I've reposted the opening day one
every year since 2021
when we did it
that was a nice one
every year and I'll like
it's like an annual thing
I'll have the same guy
he'll quote tweeted on opening day
every year and be like
glad we're back
tradition
which is great you know
have we done a golf one
no we need to
bad there's so many there
holy shit we really
let's have a threesome

it's like the crown jewel
that's still out there
that we haven't
you know the white whale
that we stuff
us on a golf cart
just us on a golf course
you know
you take the front nine
I'll take the back nine
Don't give it away, dude.
Clubhouse is going to know already.
I know.
They're just too good.
I'm playing all 18.
Dude, I'll never not laugh at that.
Clubhouse, you, because you're here and you're here every week, you're just privied,
pivied, what is it, privied?
I think, yeah, privied to the first three lines of golf guys.
Guys at a golf course.
on the green, this guy.
He's out of golf cars.
Wow.
Come on.
Yeah.
Can't wait.
I'm already.
Dude, I've been watching golf recently.
How?
It's a lot more fun for you.
No.
But, but, you know,
it's a good watch.
You know,
they hop back and forth.
How about going to like a golf?
I don't even know what a tournament.
Is that what it's called?
Yeah.
going to the masters
I'd be like
seems like a lot of down time
make sure your phone's charged
yeah
number one ingredient
for going to one of those
a mobile phone charger
like that you can just take with you everywhere
doesn't have to be plugged in
you're waiting for your one guy to go drive
and he hits it and then what
you walk down to where he hit it
yeah well I think that
and clubhouse
correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that, uh, excuse me, about burpee boy.
I love you burpy boy. Whoa. That's insane. What flavor is that?
Just blue. They don't even have one. It doesn't have a flavor. It's not like frost.
It says monster energy low carb. Oh, okay. Low carb additions blue. You just got,
you went off coffee and just went right to monster. No, I had,
coffee this morning and then
we took Frank to
the Jurassic Quest
so he's going to seeing all these dinosaurs
and everything at the fairgrounds
and he was loving it
and then actually
hit the garden table bro I thought about you
shut up. Dude is so good
I love that place. I know
the lighting in there. Yeah
the lighting is great. The music
you know it's like you got a good
yeah you feel like there's like a party
there's energy, good food, good drinks, good coffee.
Like, I need to go there more often, man.
Asaibol, slaps.
It was like we left the Jurassic Quest thing, like 10.50 a.m.
And Riley's mom was with us.
And so we were like, yeah, you know, you guys want to get some food, get some lunch?
I was like 1050.
So by the time we got, I was like, garden table would be perfect.
Did Rye like it?
Oh, yeah, Rye loves garden table.
Hell yeah.
They even had these like fluffy powdered pancakes for Frank.
I mean, it was money, dude.
It was great.
Take your kids there.
That's insane.
I didn't know they did it for the kids like that.
Part of me is like, I want to get drunk at that place.
I have.
It seems like a great time.
Evening.
Oh, evening.
I was going to say some, you know, the mimoses with the most.
Oh, I've done that one.
I did that with my dad one time.
Crazy.
Your dad drinking mimoses?
No, my dad was having, he probably had like two, but he was just buying rounds.
It was really, it was a really weird time in my life.
What was it?
Father's Day?
I don't know what it was, bro, but I was just sipping mimosas.
They were so good.
Yeah.
No, but I was there with the, uh, the F boys one time.
Maybe, uh, was that like, it was like 4 p.m. or something?
4 p.m. like on a, on a Friday?
Yeah.
Oh, dangerous.
Dangerous.
They had the outside seating set up.
Love a patio.
Well,
little,
little,
uh,
Indy insight for everybody.
They always sit you way too close to somebody on a patio,
though.
Every time you eat outside,
I'm like,
butt it up next to a guy.
I'm like,
I can hear everything you're saying.
Yeah,
I always think about that with your dad.
Like,
can we go over here?
But as a mat.
He's like,
take me to like the other end where nobody is.
I love that when,
when old.
when guys get old, they're older,
they just,
they completely drop any care in the world for politeness
and or just like normal social functioning,
you know, functionality when it comes to situations like that.
They're just like, actually, no, I'm going to do your job for you.
I'm going to decide.
But we'll take this table over here.
Dude, it's kind of on the server.
Because like I've, I served and like you can spread people out.
until it gets crowded,
then you got to be like,
sorry, dog,
I got to throw you right here.
I get it.
It's crowded.
But when it's not crowded,
it's like,
y'all got this whole section.
I'll put you here.
One person comes in.
I'm not going to put them right here.
Like, put them right here.
Yeah,
but I feel like they like to cheat the system.
They like to sit them right there.
So it's like,
it's a two for one.
You know?
Oh, yeah.
Hey,
I'm here.
How is everything?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, right.
Turn my back.
You need a refill spray?
Yeah, sure.
Instead of like,
check,
oh, I forgot.
corner. I know. I could never. But I feel like, I mean, what, what, what customer is like, yeah,
sit me right next to these strangers that I don't know anything about when there's all these other
options here. Nobody. Hearing everything they're saying. And then you, you always start talking
loud at a restaurant too. Especially after you've had some mimosas. Start getting into the convo a little bit.
In 2012, they had, sorry, sorry. And then you don't feel like saying it. You're like, never mind.
totally took my energy took took took the energy just suck the winds right out of the story
wind out of the sale bro nothing nothing takes the wind out of my sale like somebody saying
hey you're being pretty loud right now forget i even came here bro i'm at i'm out of here it was fun
don't talk you don't say another word the rest of the time when you're talking to somebody
and they go like this dude the hand down with the mouth
Oh my God.
Yep.
Never been more mad in my life.
Yeah, at that point, it's like, hey, let me figure it out.
You know, like if a stranger wants to make, like, if a stranger wants to make a comment,
all right, then it's like, okay, I really reached that point.
And now I really know.
But for you, my friend, I thought my friend across the table.
Fuck off.
It's an amazing moment.
Oh, I hate when people tell me I'm being too loud.
especially when you're like excited for someone too
like
what are you doing
is it their birthday
they sing it what
you're like good job dude
I saw you and you're like
the other person's like
hey I know but like
oh yeah okay
you know what I mean
you know what I mean
never mind you fuck
you did terrible
yeah
we got any
emails? That's had to have been us though. Sorry, I'm just thinking of like, you know,
if you're at like a bar or something, somebody's had a little bit too much. Hey, whoa, dude, you,
you killed it. Hey, man. But then, yeah, yeah. So we've, we've probably been on both sides for sure.
I got a vivid memory of one. We picked my sister up from high school. I had to like go with my mom
to pick her up. Because I was like 10. My other sister was in the,
car too. My sister ran to the car to the window, started like screaming in the car like,
oh my God, okay. So like we just got done and like we, and dude, everybody in the car was like,
shut the fuck up. And my sister was like, like first day of high school, dude. Started
crying. Just mortal. Just. All right. Never mind. Got in the car. Just drove home to complete silence.
Gets home. Goes up to a room.
cries. Oh, for sure. My sister cry at the weirdest
things, dude. On her birthday every year, I was like, I thought this was like
what girls doing movies. Because it didn't, it didn't add up. I was like, you don't
seem like a birthday crier, but you do it every, I'm like, this has to be like,
is this a bit? What would spark it? What would spark it? Just the randomest shit.
Bro, I don't know. Maybe like the presents. Bro, like three times though, cry on the birthday.
Oh, dude, that breaks my heart.
Dude, I was kind of like, as like the younger brother,
I was kind of like, what the fuck?
She got like good shit, right?
We're like going to dinner and having cake.
I know.
And then I was like, maybe she doesn't even want to go to do that.
I still want to, though.
Oh, that scares me for like trying to get your kid a present, you know,
especially like your daughter when they're like 15.
A lot of shit going on in the mind and the body.
Yeah, that was the age too
And everything
A lot going on there
You know
And so it's like
I never understood
Thinking you're doing a
A good thing
And like getting her something good
But then like
Something just triggers
That's you know
Maybe she went like
How she looked in or something
I don't even know dude
And then she just breaks down
I can't wrap my head around it still
I could get a pile of mud
For my birthday
I'd be like
Texas Roadhouse later though
Texas Roadhouse, all-time birthday dinner place right there.
Texas Roadhouse, yep.
Yeah, it is.
That is the one.
There's no other one.
There's different.
It's like there's different levels.
It's almost like, you know, the big leagues, the AAA,
or like Division I, the Division II, like, me and you were both in the Texas Roadhouse,
outback steakhouse, birthday dinner.
Big time.
I always wanted to go to Chili's because I like the pepper.
Chili's, yeah.
But it seemed like to, I don't know, it seemed like it was for like older people or something.
So I never went.
I was like it looks a little like sexy or something.
Yeah.
That bar in there.
They got a pretty kick-ass bar in Chili's.
You're like somebody, the huge margaritas right next to you.
You're like, I don't know.
My mom doesn't want me to be here.
I know that.
Yeah, I felt a little like, eh, this is for like.
This is for like teenagers.
This is for like work,
work party people.
Yeah.
Like they might have like a like,
I might see some boobs on TV or something if I look up.
Applebee's.
And then me and you,
right.
But me and you had some,
oh charlies,
you know,
slip that in there.
Which are all,
listen,
I still,
I trust me,
I will go there once a week.
I will knock out some O'Charlie's,
some Texas Roadhouse.
Texas Roadhouse are like prime 47,
Texas Roadhouse.
We also, well, that's about to say, we also had friends and people that we grew up with.
That's like their birthday dinner, they were like going to Ocean Air or like,
huh?
St. Elmo's or something.
You're like, oh.
Absolutely.
I still haven't even been to St. Elmo's.
Man, you're missing out.
I will say, but it's super good.
But yeah, never, man.
Talk about a place.
I was like, I'm just not welcome here.
Kind of still.
I'm like, yeah.
I don't know
Everybody knows it
You know
I'm too suburb to be in here
Oh yeah
Levels levels of birthday dinners
Alright let's check
Let's check the mailbox
Olive Garden night
Oh
Olive Garden in there too
It was such an event dude
You got the little
You got the little vibrator thing
That like
Our table
We gotta go
That's a different level
Of excitement right there
Yeah
For a while, you're like, is it working?
Is it on?
Yeah.
My mom, yeah, if it didn't buzz for three minutes,
she'd just be like, I don't, I think ours is faulty.
I don't think it's working.
As you're walking up there, as you're talking to the person,
hey, we haven't, I just, it hasn't gotten.
Oh, now looking at you like.
That is funny.
It's funny like what, like, we just all went to our car.
We would just go in the car with the VVV-V-T thing.
Yeah.
Damn, yeah.
At that case, I would be, I'd be like, I don't know if it reaches.
Like, I don't know if the Bluetooth for this thing fucking reaches out to our car.
My dad asked one time, he's like, how far can we go?
Because I got to return something at Best Buy.
I was like.
Walking around Best Buy.
In his back pocket, dude.
We got to.
I swear to God, we're at Best Buy with the V-V.
The olive garden, vvv.
I was like, we gotta make this quick, bro.
Yeah, we're gonna lose our table, dude.
If we're not there in five minutes, they give it away.
Dude, when that shit went off, bro, that's the most exciting moment of your life.
Was that the?
Yeah, let's go.
Dude, you've never been more.
Let's talk about, hey, when you got to the point once we all get, you know,
2010, 2011, when everybody really had phones and everything, 2009, whatever.
you go out to one of these places
and you'd be sitting
like in the lobby
or sitting on the bench outside
and you get the false alarm
because someone's phone would buzz
your sister would get a text
is that?
Oh my God
it's just your phone
you don't have it in your pocket
you have it on the bench
the false alarm
bro that'll kill the vibe
then you have to wait
like another 12 minutes
I always take
way too long.
You're like, I think your vibrate took our vibrate.
Like I think the wires were disconnected
and because you got that text,
ours's not going off now.
Now your phone,
your phone like, yeah,
deactivated our vov.
No one knows that that's called.
It's just a voo.
You make your family put their phones
on airplane mode while you have the voovo.
Everybody shut up.
Leave your phones in the car.
We got to hear the voovov.
Vuvv.
Because right when that thing goes off
and the thing smells like breadsticks and shit
So you're like
The vv has a smell
What it would light up with different colors
You know like not different colors but like the red
Red red would be in like different rings that would flash
Oh yeah
Different formations
I think that one means we're late
Yeah I just want to go out to dinner now
Dude I want to go to a spot
So bad
It was always Olive Garden.
That was the OG Vuv.
Olive Garden was big.
Olive Garden was big.
Road house.
Yeah, it's all these tiers of restaurants.
It did kind of feel like you were family
when you're in Olive Garden.
Now I know that's like their thing.
But like it did kind of feel like, whoa.
Like it was warmer in there.
Like the lights were hitting a little different.
it always felt like
I don't know, man
it just had a different feeling in Olive Garden.
Texas Roadhouse is more like
State Fair.
Yeah.
Olive Garden felt like,
hey,
dun dun dun dun dun dun
yeah.
No-no is going to come up
and give you a kiss on the cheek, you know?
Yep.
Breadstick fairies just
I'm starving.
All right, I'll shut up.
from Travis
Tim Couch
So,
this is a listener
since the beginning
and I think this is my
third or fourth time
emailing
can remember
recently I started
driving for Uber
on the weekends
and get some extra cash
and I usually throw on
TG or some other
podcasts on driving people
around.
When you guys were talking
about the legend
of coach Smitty
on the most recent
podcast,
I can see my passenger
and my mirror
rolling her eyes
after every joke.
I guess only
Clubhouse understands.
To answer last week's
question,
I think Schmitty's
song would be
T&T by
ACDC and when it gets to the part where it goes,
Oit,
Schmitty would make the team pound their fist in unison.
Slep my ass with Zach Edy's sweat towel.
That's a pretty,
that's, yeah,
that's a pretty good picture there.
That's super bold playing podcast while you're driving people around.
I didn't know you could do that.
And that chick is probably just someone who
like got denied by Ben or something or Ben like,
or she's not a fan of him on F-Boy
and such
bro but like
she had to know we were kidding right
she had to know we were kidding
I don't know
dude that fucking
I
I hate that so much
dude there's nothing I hate more
what ACDC or the
oy just a
I'm like
guys, oh my God, again with this.
Had a few kids who got way too into classic rock
when we were in middle school who would really go hard with that.
There was always like four kids that would just bang that like ACD.
I was like, you guys really think this is good?
I'm like, I guess this is what we're listening to.
This is insane.
I.
I went at the vovvoo was just,
oh.
Hey, we could go eat now.
We got to run over there before I
kill myself.
I hate.
I hate that.
I hate that.
That and the fact
that the cults haven't changed
their like in-game music
since like 2002, dude,
I just cannot get over that.
Yeah, it's pretty wild.
It almost feels like they're in on it now.
You know, you have to.
You guys are still playing Let's Go by Liljohn.
I still get down with that.
That was hard. That was hard.
When the colds did that kickoff thing.
Bro, that's when the cult are the coolest.
That's when the cult are the coolest.
All right, from Patrick.
Vanderjack was like.
Yeah, you know Dungey didn't approve.
Didn't approve.
From Patrick.
Church Neeler Technique.
What's up, Joe, Joy, and Benny.
As a kid who was always required to wear khaki.
pants to mass, even in South Carolina
summer, the portion of last episode
talking about church dress code was cracking me up.
I need to know y'all's opinion
on resting your butt on the pew while
kneeling at church since my parents
were not having it. You can maybe get away with
it during a July Saturday Mass, but don't even
think about it on a Sunday during a Lanner
Christmas. No shot you're all getting
away with it, right? Anyways, head to the
parish hall and smank my ass with some dry banana bread
from the Women's Guild bake sale.
Oh. P.S. Thanks for reading
my long-ass flag football submission a few episodes
back. PPS. You need the NFC
South Atlanta tour soon.
Oh, yeah. Just getting longer
and longer. Just be SEC
SEC tour there, Patrick,
but for sure.
Yeah, the kneeling of the church.
Yeah.
Dude, my dad would
literally curse at me in church if he saw my
butt resting on the pew.
Yep. But man, I wanted to do it so bad.
It's so easy. You know, it's just
a little slide back, you know?
It's just, it's not even, it's
barely anything.
It looks bad.
It does.
It looks lazy.
Looks terrible.
You know what I always thought of?
And I think maybe one of my parents said this to me one time.
That's why it's ingrained in my head.
But I'm still just like, man, the big dog, the big guy was nailed to the cross for us.
And I can't kneel on these cushion kneelers for it does hurt though.
Four minutes.
I wonder if that like has something.
I wonder if our knees took a little.
toll, you know. Catholic people's knees.
I got knee problems. Were you Catholic? Yeah. Explains everything.
Were you a catcher? No, I didn't play baseball. Must have been Catholic. My whole life, yeah.
Yeah, a lot of hillberries. Yeah, I always thought it was lazy. I always thought it was a bad look.
As much as I wanted to do it, trust me. But what pissed me off even more is that like as we got older,
you know it's like I'm surprised it didn't work like this with you I guess because you were the only boy but like my sister basically could just fucking sit down and my parents want to really say I'm like what's going on here are you serious oh my god they could never fly I was hated too when if you set up front and then you had the people who sat like front row like you were talking about and like they just got to sit because they just got to sit because they
They didn't have kneelers.
Oh, that's a crazy church hack.
That's bullshit.
Well, I mean, there's no kneelers.
What do you want them to do?
Neal on the ground.
Yeah, that's it.
My family would have done that, but I can see the loophole being like.
Oh, the loophole gets invoked all the time, but it's a bullshit loophole.
Right.
Because you're sitting up front, like you said, because you want to be the upfront family.
You want to be the people up there that father can see.
Fucking Neil.
Prove it.
exactly. Thanks Patrick.
This is from Mickey. Field trips.
Mickey.
What's up, Joey and Ben? Huge fan of the show. Thanks.
I was wondering if you guys had any memories of school field trips growing up.
For me, it was sixth grade going visit Teddy Roosevelt's house in Sagamore Hill and mooning kids from other schools while on the bus.
I also enjoyed the bag lunches, i.e. subway sandwiches my parents would make for said field trips.
just wanted to know if you all had any fun stories or thoughts about school field trips.
Slop my ass with a honey baked Tom and Jerry Ham while yelling Antoine Randallel L, Indiana University.
Oh, dude.
Money.
I think that's Mickey's first email.
I haven't seen his name come across.
Hey, Mickey.
Antoine Randallel L was the like cheat code on every game.
Every football game?
Oh my God.
You ever put,
you ever play Madden and put Antoine Randallel at quarterback?
That is insane.
Yeah.
Because like they always had another,
Steelers always had another slot that could kind of play.
Or you could move some people around.
You probably know who I'm talking about,
but throw Randall Ellen there on like a third and two.
Well, do a option.
Do a option? Yeah.
Do Staley back there for some reason?
Field trips.
Yeah, man.
My eighth grade class was so bad.
We didn't have an eighth grade trip.
I remember that.
I was like, God damn it.
And we just went to FedEx.
Like the building with the boxes that are on all the treadmill things, that's what we did.
Because somebody's dad was like, take him to FedEx.
Make it put in a little manual labor.
Horrible.
We were supposed to go.
The tradition for a while was like to go to Chicago to go to a Cubs game.
That was shut up at St. Barnabas?
Yeah.
And then my eighth grade trip, we were like,
first ones who hadn't done it in a while.
We just went to Navy Pier.
I was like,
what the hell's Navy Pier?
It's up in Chicago.
It's a big old pier.
It's right there on Lake Michigan.
It's pretty cool.
Not as cool as a Cubs game.
Actually,
a Cubs game when you're in eighth grade
probably wouldn't be that cool, though.
What?
Are you kidding me?
Wrigley Field with all your friends
at a baseball game
where you can yell whatever the hell you want.
Yeah, it's cool for like five other guys in your grade.
But like,
you know,
I think about like the nerdy girl.
What does she get?
out of that, you know.
Hey, don't care.
Right.
Yeah, but.
I remember we went to,
we went to,
what was that place,
fucking Indiana,
the,
the old country-ass place.
Connor Prairie.
Oh, I hated that,
dude.
Connor Prairie, that was rough.
Oh,
one of my fat friends fell down
and rolled down a hill at Connor Prairie.
And,
and like,
I laughed for so,
long. I think I laughed for two days. Of course. How can you not? But like, yeah, it was so funny.
Dude, and we'd be like going to different places at Connor Prairie and I'd still be laughing.
And they're like, are you laughing at this guy? And I'd be like, no, no, no. Something that happened like
four hours ago. I'm still laughing at it. Dude, grown up in Catholic school, Mickey, like,
a lot of our, like, all of our field trips would just be going to like other Catholic churches.
Like, we would leave our Catholic school. And they'd be like,
we're going to St. Peter and Paul's Basilica Cathedral.
I'd be like, okay.
I guess we're going to check this out.
Like, is it a trip or is it, what are we doing?
Are we going to church again?
I never understood that.
I was like, why are we going to this big church?
Dude, field trip was so risky, man.
You had to like, because you just had to, you had to know the line really well
because it was so easy to cross it.
And you're so tempted because you're so, like, jacked to be out of school during the
your friends.
It's all weird territory.
But you got to know that line.
I never.
I kept it low key on field trips.
So I was like,
I feel like this can really get out of hand.
Exactly.
And like,
and you can ruin the whole field trip.
For like,
you know,
when you get,
do you ever get back from a field trip?
That's crazy.
And like you're waiting for the teacher
to either yell at your class
or like,
oh,
I guess we were good.
Like you never know what the reaction is going to be when you get back.
Do you ever have your any, I know the answer to this, but I got to ask.
Do you ever have either your parents, like be one of the parents chaperones?
Okay.
Definitely not on a field trip.
But my mom was a room mom one year.
Oh.
That was nice.
Amy stepping up.
Just third grade room mom.
I was like, my mom's going to be at the Christmas party.
Right.
Like setting up.
Yeah.
Making little cookies.
I was like, Christmas party's about to be lit
because it always is in school, like your Christmas party.
And my mom's going to be here?
Right.
Yeah.
I had my dad down.
I had my dad chaperone on a couple field trips.
Yeah.
He was basically,
it was basically just like real life Billy Madison.
Like, you know, he was basically, he was like 27 at the time.
You know, first grade field trip going to the fucking apple orchard or whatever.
27?
Just like fucking around with all the kids, you know, like putting on a show.
It's basically his like stand up comedy hour.
Oh, yeah.
He's doing five at the orchard.
On the bus ride, like sitting next to me and then everybody else.
Yeah, dude.
Just crushing it.
Sitting by you.
Yeah, your friends are probably like, wow, your dad's cool.
Yeah, yeah.
Exactly.
Hey, how about the kids that couldn't go on the field trip?
You ever have any of them?
Some stuff where they had to stay back.
Big time weirdos.
Well, either that or they were like in so much trouble that they were like, you can't go.
You're staying here in detention.
Where's Jordan?
Why isn't he at Connor?
Oh, he had to stay back?
E.
Oh, he had detention.
Oh.
Somebody's got some Fs.
I'm like, what did he do?
I do that was so bad that he can't go to the field trip.
That's crazy.
Like, did he literally tell the teacher to go fuck herself to her face?
Probably.
I want to know.
Yeah, but like somebody on the inn, like somebody that he like carpools a school with like knows and it's kind of like, it's not good.
My mom said just stay away from Jordan for a little bit.
Yeah, Jordan's not a house I'm going to on the weekend.
his dad smokes
his dad smokes in the house
his dad has
X-rated movies in the Xbox and stuff
his dad smokes
his dad smokes
their cars kind of beat up
when everybody's getting picked up from school
he's like his dad's car is so rusty
and old
trying to start it back up to leave
it's like
You're like,
Oh shit.
This is from Chuck.
Says,
Hey,
boys,
any chance you can talk about your favorite coaches of all time
from your middle school days through high school.
Much love.
I don't know if this is like
one of our coaches incognito
who like is wanting us to try to talk about them.
Or if this is like a sarcastic like,
hey,
that's all you guys fucking talk about.
So.
Oh shit. I didn't take, I didn't think of either of those options. I was just going to start
ripping off some coaches. Rip them. Favorite coach of all time. We had this one really old guy
when I was in third grade. You had him too, I think. But he was cool. Is that Lanny? Yeah.
bro one of the dopest things like he was cool because he gave us all nicknames instead of like remembering
our names which is hard to do yeah it's way easier to remember like fucking a train instead of
you know Aaron you know I mean yeah yeah so that was dope first of all we all got nicknames
and then we called each other our nicknames around school like yo that's a flash you know what I mean
yeah it's hard sick and then after games
win or lose, he would tell us to get whatever we wanted from the concession stand. I was like,
fire. Fire coach. He's a good one. And then actually, dude, he gave us a, he was like, I'm going
to give you guys a test that has all the plays in it. So make sure you fill it out. He made it real,
like, we got to know our stuff. We're playing Carmel this week. First game. We got to know our
stuff. Or we're going to get, we're going to get our like handed to us. He gave us a test. It was like the
dumbest test ever, bro.
It was like two big black circles and it said like connect the dots.
Dude, it was just like a bunch of dumb shit.
I was like, what?
Insane.
What are he filmed right now?
Yeah.
We had one coach that was a buddy of mine's dad who since passed.
He was, my buddy was the youngest of like seven and his dad was older, older guy.
but he was just one that like, you're always like,
are you a little senile?
Like, I don't really know.
You're kind of like, you're hilarious.
And I'm glad you're here,
but do we really have to listen to you?
That kind of deal?
There was a coach.
So we had a middle school too that was like kind of a dick.
But it was one of those that like afterwards you really respected.
And he like, if you made it through his shit,
he was like, all right.
We're on the other side now.
Football coach, not a basketball coach.
One time I remember he was making us run a bunch.
And he kept like, I kept thinking we were done.
I was in seventh grade.
And he was like, all right.
Back to the baseball diamond and back again.
And we had done it like fucking so many times, dude.
I was just done.
I was like, so I literally was like, oh, you shit in me?
I just like let it out.
And I, and we start running.
And like, I kind of heard some commotion as a running away.
I'm like, I think he might have just heard me.
So we go and hit the fence, so we come back.
He's like, well, yeah, what did you say?
Oh, my God.
And I like froze.
She's like, what before you just went?
What did you say?
And I go, I said, are you shooting me?
Shooting me.
He was like, yeah, no, you did it.
I heard exactly what you said.
Guess what?
Go do it again three more times.
just you
no the whole team
oh
yeah
I was public enemy
number one
are you
shooting me
yeah
were you thinking
in your head
like what should I say
no I didn't think
he's gonna put me
on the spot like that
so I just
you know
came out with my best
PG reference for it
did not fool him
but like
we're cool
he like now like
I'll see him
out on the South
side or whatever and we'll talk.
Great dude.
He loves our stuff.
So it's one of those things.
It's like, man, I hate it.
You used to make us run so many dolphin sprints and I hated you so bad.
I was like, you cannot believe we're running this much.
Yeah.
Down back, down back.
Like it was not a joke.
Like it was the determining factor if you're going to play football or not.
Like you know how much they run?
Yeah.
Remember you heard like the horror stories?
Horror.
One practice, they ran laps the whole time after they lost to St. Matthew.
I was like, the whole time.
Right.
They had to run 20 dolphins.
And those were like the ones where you went to, you'd go sideline to sideline.
And it was like four downbacks.
Those are bad.
Those are bad.
Yeah.
Just practicing it.
It seemed like we're practicing until 10.58 p.m.
Like, it's like, remember the Titans?
Like our dads are pulling up with the cars that have the lights on.
And we're like, I guess we're still doing this.
It really was, dude.
We practiced so.
late one time. I was like, can they do this? I was like, I hope we're going to be good though.
Yeah. Like I got sucks. I got six pages of math homework to do. That was all I was rolling over in my head.
And I'd like need to get on AIM to see if Amelia is on there. No AIM after that, bro. All homework.
I felt like I was playing college football when I was in eighth grade at some point. Oh yeah.
It's like, whoa, we just practiced for four hours. My shirt's soaked. Now I'm just going to go home and
eat and go to sleep. I'm a college athlete.
It felt like that, dude.
You didn't know any different.
Right.
Yeah, dude.
Jeff Solar tackled me out of bounds. I've bruised ribs now.
My whole forearm is just nothing but black and blue.
Like, I think I might, like, am I anemic?
I might have a problem here.
You thought you're fast? And then there's like two.
kids that were just blazing it.
You're like, I'm not even the fast guy anymore.
Yeah.
What's the point?
That happened, dude.
Not even the fast guy anymore.
What's the point?
I know,
like recruited this kid to play football
that was just like random.
And I was like,
he'd be pretty good.
He plays.
He's the fastest kid
on way faster than me.
I'm like, dude.
Actually,
just go back to being the weird kid.
Go back to tennis.
All right.
Good show.
Crazy.
That's it from the clubhouse.
