Our pals at Quack Daddy Donuts.
You guys who have been following me for a while, you know I have a great love for Quack Daddy
donuts, worked with them, you know, the past couple of Mays.
And our pal, Andy, came in and brought us.
He brought us some donuts.
And coffee.
Dude, this coffee is so good.
I might just drink it all right now.
And I haven't even showed Ben the donuts yet.
I can't even look at them.
All right.
Here we go.
Here's a big reveal.
See if we can.
I'll show you first and then we'll show the camera.
All right, right.
All right.
Oh!
Is that a cinnamon toast crunch donut?
That's a CTC right there.
What kind of sick?
Oh my God, dude.
What kind of mad scientist made this?
What is this?
That's what we got to.
Is this fruity pebbles?
Oh, a 4th of July one.
Nice.
This is what QDD does, man.
They're all cake.

Is that bacon? Yep. That's the maple bacon. So our Canadian friends, it's a special there for
old James Hinchcliffe, even though it is 4th of July this week. Canada Independence Day was this weekend too.
So, uh, yeah, there you go. We appreciate the. What's going on right here though? This little
blueberry right here with the blueberry. You know me. Blueberry cake is my favorite donut. So Andy always hook

Do you guys sing with the...
Mm-hmm.
That's, yeah, that's a, that's a...
It's like a watermelon?
That's a night out where you end up at a place where you're like, I don't really expect
to come here, but this is fun. Got to drop the top. Can't let these sit out. I know, I know, I know.
It's tough to, and I've done interviews with people. Great box. Yeah, the box is awesome.
It's the color, the color scheme is great. So Quack Daddy Donuts, we love you. Um, Westfield.
That's where you can find them.
If you're in the indie area,
and Andy will take care of you.
It's like,
I've told you before.
It's like subway of don't,
like,
it's not like subway.
It's better than subway.
But it's,
it's like you get there and you can customize your own donut.
And so you go and you start out and you have like the cake donut.
And then you're just like,
yeah,
I want this and this and this.
You put it on paper and then they're like,
there you go.
I got to go in now.
Yeah.
It's awesome.
Like I'll take a foot long.
Mm-hmm.
I'm sure Andy can make it happen, dude.
Don't a lot of things his way over the years.
Throw me a donut sub.
Dude,
how about that Brett Farv TikTok that I sent you?
That documentary.
I wasn't gonna, yeah.
I didn't, last night I came up on mine and I couldn't make it through it.
And then you sent me it and I was like, okay, I got to watch this.
Rye this morning we're laying on the couch and she was like, why is it?
Why are you crying?
P-O-V, your mom watching the Brett Farrb documentary.
They're drooling and I'm crying.
I know. It did kind of hurt a little bit.
Dude, it was amazing.
I know.
And then they had the, I didn't even remember the Packers fans who literally had a funeral for Brett Favb.
Even though he wasn't dead.
We drove by a steakhouse and we burnt the place down.
I was like, Jesus Christ.
They had three, uh, one of those, uh, one of those cars.
Oh my God, you're done already.
It's that good.
Wow.
It's really, it's like that.
Quack Daddy coffee.
Three of those casket cars for a fake Brett Farr funeral.
That's what they did in GB.
The G.B. Packers holding the funeral for old Brettie Fav.
Now you're on to coffee number two.
Oh, we're not stopping.
But, uh, yeah.
It was kind of moving.
Switch to the switch to the song.
He's like, I wanted to play whatever team was playing the Packers.
I was like, dude, Brett Farr.
And then he goes.
And then he goes, and the Vikings play them twice.
I was like, that's kind of cold, Brett.
I didn't know he had it like that.
I thought he was just like, yeah, let's play some from big scales.
I just want to go out there, tossing around.
Yeah, no, no, no.
That was very calculated for old BF.
Dude, so you're at, you're at Taylor Swift.
Oh, my God.
Can we talk?
Best night of my life.
Are you a T, are you Swifty?
Were you Swifty before, like kind of on the low?
So this is one of the fun things about marriage is that, oh, yeah.
So.
You got any extra bracelets?
Well, you got to trade me, bro.
This is how it goes.
You want to.
You want a rubber band from Staples?
You want a, you want a hair tie from a girl that I dated senior year in high school?
Still got it.
It's purple.
It still smells good.
So one of the fun things about marriage is that you, you start to get into each other's interests, right?
And some more than others, you know what I mean?
And so, like, for me, like, right now she'll go to Wrigley Field and have a good time doing that.
And, you know, she'll go to Pittsburgh and go to a Steelers game because she knows I love.
that shit.
And you during a Steelers game, bro, nobody loves that.
She's probably like, I'm going to sit on the other side of the stadium.
Bro, Joey during a Steelers game.
No one, no one.
I was like, I don't care about anything in my life.
Like Joey cares about the Steelers.
I was like, I need to reevaluate my like interest in everything, dude.
Because this is insane.
When we were at the Steelers Colts game, you get literally, there's a few times Ben was like,
bro, stop.
Because I'd be like,
I'd be like,
yep,
there you go.
I'm like,
dude,
second down in the first quarter.
Like,
it's not that deep.
Really?
That show is insane.
But I get it.
I get it.
Not really,
but I get it.
Oh,
shit.
Hey,
it's a big part of my life,
right?
And I've never just experienced
Joey Steelers like that.
But yeah,
I can see how.
We went full on
because the first time
Ben experienced
Steelers Joey
was front row seats
on the field. I kind of liked it.
In an opponent territory.
You know, so it was Molinard
for three hours. I was like
in heaven kind of.
You were getting all the Molinard
minutes because I was going off on Matt
Canna's play calling.
I was like, this is fucking awesome. Get off the field
on third down and dropping punts
and shit.
Dropping punts. Stephen Sims.
Stand it up and shit.
Front row. So you're
like that around like Rye and your family at
Steelers games. Oh yeah. But like I keep it more. I keep it. And it's honestly you're like like,
like I keep it way more in check at the stadium because I'm like, I don't want to make an ass
of myself in front of people. Like if I'm going to do that, I'm to do it in the comfort of my own
living room. Oh. And there's just me and Ryan, my dad and mom, you know, like that that's what I'm
worried. That's where you really don't want to be around me. I like that solo me and you there
because you were kind of letting loose a little bit. Right. You know I can, yeah. But, but, but
I'm with you on. You don't want to see that in living room, you know, Sunday.
night football.
Kicking over lamps and shit.
We've dialed it back from that.
Yeah.
What's some thing you've broken?
Is there something that you got pissed at when the Steelers like fumbled?
Did you like break something?
Let's see.
One of the things, obviously I wear a hat all the time, but I'm a big hat thrower.
Against the wall.
Just whipping that thing?
Yep.
Yep.
You know, because I'll get stressed out.
And so I'll do the move where I like, you know, take my hat off and like rub my hand through
my hair.
But then I'm just like, throw the hat.
yeah just in a safe spot the jesse james catch that was reversed and not called a catch against the pats
that was about the closest i ever came to destroying a house i wish i knew i think i know you
you're talking about i don't think i do know what you're talking about 2017 battle for the number
one seed it's a week before christmas stealers are hosting the patriots they're both i think at the time
12 and 3.
The winner of that game was going to, you know,
go on to be the number one seat in the EFC,
have home field advantage throughout the whole thing.
Who won in the Super Bowl that year?
The Patriots.
No, wait, no, the Eagles.
The Eagles.
Oh, okay. Yeah.
Dunnard is bad.
Yeah, that was the, that was the Nick Foles,
what do they call that?
A reverse thing.
Dilly, buddy, dilly, dilly and whatever.
Philly, Philly, the Philly Special.
Oh, yeah.
where they did that.
Yeah,
that.
And so,
yeah,
it's a week before Christmas,
Ryan Chazir
just been paralyzed
two weeks before that.
And a lot of emotions
running high.
They had,
you know how now ESPN does like
when it's a big game
and they do like
their version of college game day
randomly.
They'll go.
It's like such a big NFL game
that they'll do Sunday NFL countdown
from the site.
Oh,
they do that every week?
No,
no,
or it's just like randomly like three.
That kind of a matchup.
Oh shit.
For the Steelers.
There's pats.
They were, you know, countdown was in Pittsburgh.
It was a 425 game.
Romo Nance on the call, like everything.
You know what I mean?
This is going down.
So Steelers are leading.
Two minute warning.
Tom Brady takes him down.
Gronk absolutely eviscerates us.
Scores a touchdown with like 50 seconds left to play to take the lead.
All right.
So we're like, fuck.
So then the Steelers get the ball back, of course.
You're dialed in, dude.
You're not even sitting on your couch at this point.
Oh, hell no.
I don't sit for the whole game.
I'm interested for the whole game.
Joe, he watches a Steelers game.
Just in a wall sit.
Yep.
So the first play of the ensuing drive, you know,
we're starting on the 25 because it's a touchback.
Big Ben just throws a little like drag route to Juju.
He was like,
it was just like a four-yard drag route just dragging across.
He was honestly like the safety outlet.
That was it to him.
He goes up the sideline.
Somehow like the Patriots don't tackle him.
Like they, you know,
it was one of those where like my guy like thinks he's going to and then he doesn't.
So Juju's just streaking down on the side.
all of a sudden.
So we're set up.
We're like, oh my God, this is going to happen.
Very next play, Big Ben, throws it to Jesse James.
He catches it, goes down.
He reaches for the goal line, crosses the goal line, goes down.
The ball kind of bit of a bit of a...
That's that game.
Kind of like that Des Bryant thing.
Kind of, yes.
And I went absolutely holistic.
Dude, if I just had surveillance footage of you.
Thank God.
We and Rye were just dating at the time and she was not there.
Whoa.
Oh, she wasn't there.
She was down in Florida.
not be married. She even, like, they were watching down in Florida at her grandparents. And she like,
are you okay? Question Marshall. She, she messaged me. She was like, I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
If you don't want to talk for a while, I understand. Wow. A while. Four years later.
Hey, I'm good. I said that's this. I want to marry this girl because she, she knew and wasn't trying to
like be in it. She was just like, my, I just saw what happened. Even I know that sucked. I'm sorry.
Oh, shit. Do you have?
homeowners insurance.
The next deck,
dude.
The roof is just ripped
off of your house.
Deck just shattered to pieces.
And we all we still joke about this,
dude.
So we're watching, right?
And all my whole family's standing up,
obviously.
And that play happened.
I'm pissed at Grunk at the time because
Gronk was like,
you know,
he's being a dick,
right?
And he was celebrating and kind of time and everything.
And so when Juju's streaking down the sideline,
I'm jumping up and down just going,
suck my dick, suck my dick.
And my mom's going, my mom's going,
she gets in on the chant.
Suck my dick,
your mom.
My mom was just like,
go Juj!
Yeah, this is all happening.
Oh, it was unbelievable.
Then he had rum all in the call.
She's like, oh, my kid.
Oh, they're going to, oh.
Like, it was.
Oh, this place is.
fucking Jim.
Oh, dude, I fucking love Tony Romo, man.
She's such a guy's guy on the call.
I know.
I, like, you're giving him shit a little bit.
And sometimes he is kind of hard to listen to it because I'm like, just finish your
thought.
But at the same time, it is cool.
Yeah.
I like him.
Just like your homey, just in there, like announcing a game all of a sudden.
Because everything, like, they're so often.
You know how like a lot of, you know, like Troy Akeman or, you know, he's such a pro.
Like, he's going to commercial break.
And you're just like, yeah, doing a real nice job.
Dallas is up by seven.
and then it's like going to commercial like smooth.
Romo's always like,
oh, we're going to get,
oh, Jim, that's,
well, he tried to,
it's going to be tough.
And then it's like going to,
I like that a little more.
I like it a little more raw.
Like,
kind of like amateur.
Well,
tell us what happened here,
Tony.
Well,
you see,
he's looking at it.
It's just,
it's just,
yeah,
I don't know,
Jim.
Thanks,
Tony.
Anyways,
that was,
um,
I look back at my Steelers fandom.
But you were talking about you and Ryan at T. Swift.
Anyway, so yeah.
So Riley has obviously always been a huge Taylor Swift fan.
And so being together for six years now, like, you hear more and more of it.
And then you get into it.
And you're like, oh, wow.
Yeah.
Like, you know, I always knew kind of just like the T. Swift like hits.
But then you get into all the rest of her music and everything.
And man, it's just good shit.
And she puts on such a show.
Oh, man.
Such a performer.
Really?
Oh my God.
Yeah.
She had like costume changes in there.
Between how many songs.
I've never really been to it like a concert like that.
Bro.
Like in an arena.
Oh, man.
I mean,
it was the most unified,
powerful crowd I've ever been a part of.
What do you mean?
Like everybody's just like on the same page.
Same page.
Everybody singing the song at the same time.
I cried.
Because I would have like.
I just,
if you said no,
I'd been like bullshit.
Oh,
yeah.
So.
So, okay.
I've cried seven times.
Me and Rise, our first dance song was lover.
First dance song.
Oh, okay, bad.
I thought you danced at the concert, which I would.
My lover.
Ooh, big cry.
Oh, big cry.
Get the cry out.
We got it out because she came out and she did love her first.
Sorry for, sorry for spoilers if people are on, you know, going to see her on tour or anything.
She might twist it up, though.
Well, she might, but like she started out.
So it's called the Erez tour.
So she went through all of her different eras, all of her different, you know, albums and everything.
And so she started with Lover.
So it wasn't chronological or anything.
And that's the name of the album.
Name of the album is Lover, but then a song on there is called Lover.
And so that was her third song was Lover.
And we got the cry out early.
What was the first song?
Cruel Summer.
And that's like a, that's a heater kind of.
It's a bop.
You know.
Yeah.
She said that's so like casual.
Hey, no shit, man.
Like it's a bump.
When when, so she had she had obviously huge screens and like there was a clock that
was counting down once it hit two minutes.
It was a two minute warning and literally it was counting down all the way until it got
to midnight.
You know, so you knew when she was coming out.
So then the show starting at midnight?
No.
Like on the clock and like the hand was going around once it started.
And so I mean, I'm like filming because I wanted to have it.
You know, I'm like watching, but I'm also filming it.
And I, like, I had a visceral reaction when like the reveal happened and she was just
there and all of a sudden she was in performing.
She was right in front of us.
Like I got chills, man.
I kind of like welled up a little bit.
You're like, whoa.
I think on my video, you would probably hear me.
I'm like, holy shit, there she is.
Yeah.
Yeah, dude.
It's like one of those, dude.
I mean, you know, it's like Taylor, so she's not a real person.
You're in the presence of God.
And there she is.
And then she did.
her third so we were crying through that
good cry but then everybody was dancing
dude you know dude once it got to like
she had a four stress four song stretch
that was just like I mean
it was a fucking part I literally looked to ride
and I was like now it's a goddamn party
I love that fucking moment
this is what we came here for
it was like dude she was just
fucking she had blank space and then
all of a sudden and all of a sudden shake it off
and oh shake it off
Shake it off was the best three minutes of my life.
I bet.
It was unbelievable, bro.
I bet.
Oh my God.
Everybody.
I felt like I was,
you know,
like,
you know,
at the end of a movie
when like they're kind of doing the credits,
but they keep like,
it's still in the movie kind of.
Still fun.
You know,
like a song's playing and like they're,
you know,
maybe like at a cookout
and they're kind of like tying up loose ends of a,
oh,
I love it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So I guess it works.
Oh.
Yeah.
Exactly what that was like.
I felt like, because everybody's on the same page.
Oh, he did.
He went back and saw her.
I'm like, this is the credits.
The credits are happening right now.
That's very specific.
I never miss a beat.
You know, everybody's kind of like looking at each other like, yeah.
Dude, it was so, it was, it was unbelievable.
It really was.
I mean, all time, all time stuff.
You know, the lighting, you know, the everybody,
had wristbands. They gave you a wristband when he walked in.
For what? Just because like...
Because like it would light up. It was like coinciding with the show.
So like, you know what I mean? So you look around and like during, uh, because baby now we got
blood. The whole stadium was red, you know, flashing. Oh, dude. It was, it was unbelievable.
So cool.
God. Best crowd I've ever been a part of. Probably best live event I've ever been to.
And that's including the 2020 national championship in New Orleans.
Jesus.
Because at sporting events,
because of sporting events,
everybody's a dickhead.
Everybody's a dickhead and everybody's on a different.
Everybody's a cock at a football game.
You're just like,
ugh.
Who do I kind of want to punch?
Right.
Everybody's just,
everybody's so tense.
Everybody's looking to fight each other,
throw a beer at somebody's head.
Yeah,
Taylor Swift,
you're trading fucking friendship bracelets.
You're all just dancing,
you know?
Oh,
that's like a big thing was the bracelets.
And everybody,
everybody's just like,
everybody's singing.
man. Like there was times where like Taylor, you know, I was like, I paid for a fucking sing-along just because I could barely hear Taylor because everybody was on the same page, you know.
It's kind of annoying. No, because during those times it was a party. Yeah, you're having so much fun. Yeah, you're having so much fun. Sold out. Been sold out. I mean, yeah, not even why it's. They try to get tickets with the old night of. I showed up. What? It was like impossible to get tickets. Did you go? I know my two sisters already had tickets. Yeah. Me, my brother.
and my sister-in-law, we showed up, like, basically trying to get tickets.
Trying to scalp.
We were clicking, like, the app.
And there was just, like, there was thousands of people ahead of us trying to get tickets.
Like, it was impossible.
Did you end up getting in?
No, we were, we.
I would have thought like you, though, and been like, I'll get one.
No.
We, uh, we kind of, like, scammed our way into the arena.
Wait, did you?
So you got in?
We got, we got in, but, like, there was a gate.
Like, we weren't in the arena.
We were, like, basically on the side.
But we could see the screen.
Like, we were almost, the vibe was kind of there.
You were halfway there.
Yep.
No, it's good enough. I mean, that's good enough. Yeah. It's, we, I kind of had a freak out because I got, we were in the lower bowl, but we're the last row with the lower bowl. And so we get there and we're looking for our seats and we're in row 37. There's only 36 rows.
So I'm like, got scammed. What the hell happened? Did I get scammed? Did I buy my wife with Christmas present? Oh, dude. Was she freaking out a little bit? No, she had no idea. But I was internally freaking out. There's no 37.
And I was like, is this fucking standing room only?
You know, I was like, they didn't even say that.
I'd be down with that.
Well, I mean, we ended up standing all the time anyway.
It's right.
But it turns out, dude, that they made it to where like, you know, at arenas, at the
lower level, like when you get to the top of the lowest level to have like the walkways
and the pavilions where a lot of time, you know, folks with disabilities who have
wheelchairs or whatever, they sit, that was real 37.
So we did have seats.
So I actually worked out perfectly because we weren't like in stadium seating like shoulder
shoulder with people. We kind of on our own. Yeah. Oh, I'm always so jealous of a handicapped spot, bro. I'm like,
oh. Yeah. I mean, you know, you give and take there. But sure. Dude. So it worked out really well. It was
amazing. Yeah. That's that's the sum. That's a summary of it. What were we saying about like a
firefighter thing? Thank you for reminding me. So the next morning we're in, so my parents came with me
with us to watch Frank.
And so they stayed with Frank Friday night
while we were at the concert.
And so the next morning we're all going
and we were just trying to get coffee
in downtown Cincinnati.
And so we're in this little neighborhood
of downtown Cincinnati, real cool,
kind of like a fountain squareish,
you know, type of neighborhood.
Like it.
And we're at a coffee shop
and we're sitting outside
and this fire truck goes by.
And we're, you know, Frank's looking at it
and everything.
We're like, look, Frankie.
and you know fire truck and he's kind of getting excited and stuff oh yeah kids love trucks
right it's loud and it's red right you stop I see a crane I'm like who's oh is there somebody up
there how are they doing what are they carrying up there they putting a they putting a pipe down
how high is it how thing not falling down where they yeah where they putting that huge pipe and so
we wave and everything and the firefighters are you know they kind of obliged and I think they
kind of honed for Frank.
And so we're like, oh, yeah.
So then about five minutes later,
the same fire truck comes back around.
Oh, no.
And we're like, oh, man, look, Frank,
it's a fire truck again.
Fire truck comes and we're waving.
And we're like, oh, man,
they came back just for Frank.
That's so nice because they saw this baby
and they saw how much he enjoyed seeing the truck.
And this dude in the back of the fire truck,
this fireman leans his head out of the window,
just goes, Johnson!
No.
way.
Yeah, they slowed down and they were like, Johnson.
Are you kidding me?
And they were pointing and they honked.
And I was like, oh, this guy.
No, what they?
Dude.
It was.
It was amazing.
It was so cool.
And of course, like Rye and my mom were kind of laughing and a little pissy because
they're like, here we are thinking that it's just because we got a cute baby.
And they just know you for your stupid shit.
I love it.
I was like, yep.
It's always the biggest idiots.
I'm like, Johnson.
I'm like, I love you, man.
A fucking guy in a fire truck saw you.
That's a, that's a perfect.
That's our demo, dude.
Fireman.
I was like, please.
Yeah, please.
I hope they just listen to these guys, you know, for the 12 hours that they have to just
be sitting inside their firehouse and hanging around.
It was great.
Slowed down and everything.
Like, it meant a lot because, like, they, this dude made the driver come back around.
Circle the block.
Circle the block.
We got to see Johnson.
We got to see Schmitty.
Where the hose at?
Oh, God.
Yeah, so shout out to that fireman
and that fire crew out in Cincinnati.
I didn't get the truck number
or anything like that,
but I appreciate you guys.
Super cool.
Dude.
Yeah, we got to rip
Johnson and Schmidt soon
just for the fireman.
Johnson and Schmidt's Fireman episode.
Should we get in some mail time?
Can we please?
All right.
Dude, today.
Fourth of time.
All right.
This is from Tommy.
He says,
Help settle a debate.
Oh,
yes.
Ben and Joey.
Glad to hear you guys riff
on the Grandpa Priest's confession story.
My buddies and I were listening to one of them
and wanted to write in again
to see if these guys would help settle a longstanding debate.
It's going to be a tough one.
In college,
my family would get me B-Dub,
Buffalo Wild Wings gift cards for Christmas and shit.
and I'd use them when my three other buddies and I would go to B-dubs.
One time I only grabbed one card and one of my buddies said I should have grabbed another just in case.
I said it was probably enough to cover us and it turns out it wasn't.
He was pissed that I didn't listen to him and it wouldn't have hurt to just grab an extra card.
But my argument is that I didn't even have to pay for them in the first place.
This has been a debate in the group for five years now.
Help us decide who's in the wrong.
Thanks.
Tommy, Nick, Al, and Roland.
Whoa.
Who's in the wrong here?
Well, I mean,
So your pals were saying, like they were just expecting you to pay for their beatups because you have gift cards?
It seems like he was kind of flaunting around the gift card a little too hard.
And then when it came down to the bill, he was like, oh, no, I'm just paying for me.
That's what it feels like.
His friends were like, oh, I thought you had a gift card.
That's why you were saying that.
So if I had a gift card and we were going out to eat, I probably wouldn't talk about it beforehand.
You know, when it came to pay, I'd probably be like, oh, I had a gift card.
And you'd be like, oh, cool.
But it's beforehand, I was like, yo, I got a gift card for B-dubs.
And we go to pay and I'm like, no, I'm not paying for yours.
It's mine.
You'd be like, damn, dog, why did you bring it up then?
So I'm thinking he brought it up.
And then he's like, oh, I didn't bring the other.
Because it sounds like they were running around trying to get out of there.
Bring the other gift card.
Yeah.
So I think homies in the wrong dog, you are like your friends of beatups, dude.
Probably enough to cover us.
It turns out it was.
And he's pissed.
I didn't just listen to him.
I mean, it's interesting because this honestly sounds like a marriage argument.
Dude, this sounds like some shit I go through every day.
This is something that definitely me and ride, I'd be like, no, it's going to be fine.
And it's not fine.
And then she just stares a fucking hole through my soul.
Oh, bye.
You know?
And then I'm like, damn, I should have just grabbed the extra card.
Yeah.
So I'm always conscious of that, you know?
Plus, it's like I hate when you do have a gift card.
And it's like you have to do that shit with the waiter.
it's just like, I don't know, I don't know how much is on this, but like, you know,
and then they come back, you're like, all right, well, you're still 1864.
And you're like, okay, so, um, not shit on $3.26 on a gift card.
I guess it saved me on the tip maybe. Um, yeah, so I do hate when that happens.
I, Ben says, Tommy, that you're in the wrong. I think he's in the wrong.
I'm going with Roland. I say, you're in the wrong. You're rolling with Roland.
Rollin with Roland.
I have a podcast called that.
I'd say you're in the wrong for not just being like,
yeah,
I couldn't hurt to have it.
You know,
like that's tough to just be so stubborn about it and be like,
no,
this will be fine because you never know how much is on a gift card.
And like the most that you're getting on a gift card is 20 bucks.
And who is eating for two people,
maybe not even just one at BDubs on 20 bucks?
25 is a standard amount on a gift card.
Okay.
Every time, boom,
25. If you're getting 50, like, you got a rich grandma or something. Yeah, that's,
but I never got a $50 gift card. Those are crazy, dude. But, uh, yeah, one, one, like,
sitting down and eating at B-dubs is how much? Like, $48? I would know. You're the B,
I know. You get beat, how many people? Like, it's just you, you're starving. You haven't eaten
all day, really. It's like dinner. It's like around like, I don't know, 930. You're just,
going crazy at beatups.
How much...
Dude, dude, 28, 30 bucks.
Yeah.
You can go crazy.
What are you getting?
Especially because I know why it probably
smashes wings.
Like an animal.
Not just like...
Not in public.
Eat them in private.
Close doors.
Not just, you know,
I can probably get away
with a snack size because I'm like,
I'll do a snag and then wedges
and the snack always ends up being like eight wings
and I'll do the wedges and everything.
That's enough to hold me over.
I know why it's crazy ass is probably like,
nope,
give me the fucking large, whether it's like 20 wings.
Yep.
Bodeless.
I don't want anything interfering with my chicken.
That's it, 20 boneless.
Oh, but I don't think you're stopping there.
I don't think you're stopping there.
Four sauces?
You ever get something like just on the side just in case you're a little hungry?
You don't, so you don't even mess with wedges?
You're just like, nope.
I just straight up want my wings.
No, well, I get 20 boneless and I'm usually going to side of fries.
Oh, okay.
Just fries.
A little party.
That's on the weekend.
Ben hasn't been to B-dubs in 14 years.
So he has no idea.
All right.
Hope that helped Tommy.
It's a sticky place.
And now.
All right.
From Mike.
Boys,
great show.
Always funny.
Listen to your pods with driving.
Cool.
When you talked about the seating arrangements
were watching the Super Bowl,
I was laughing so hard I had to pull the car over.
Wait,
wait,
thanks for all the laughs.
What was that about?
Like where you sit during the Super Bowl?
Yeah, the setup at the Super Bowl.
Oh.
you know how there's always like the person who's trying to be way too into it at the front
that you don't really want to talk to yeah you know but then you have the the mom that's also
kind of to the side that's trying to have a conversation that's everything but the girls are on
the side you're like come oh girls never sit in the front do you not realize what's going on
right now yeah you know it's going to happen though so you just let it slide like you guys are
going to do your own thing we know that during the super bowl yeah then you got the
the fans front and center.
Yeah, but it's like,
you're never at a Super Bowl party
with people who are fans of the team
in the Super Bowl. Yeah, never.
Wait, has that ever happened to me?
The last, I'm, I shit you not,
the last thing I would ever want to do
if the Steelers are playing the Super Bowl
is go to like a family friend's
Super Bowl party.
Ew. Are you kidding?
You'd be a train wreck at that thing.
I'd be like, get him in his own
environment.
I wouldn't let you go.
I box you out the whole time.
Yeah.
To your security the whole time?
That's what I'm saying.
No, no, don't talk to them.
So that's what makes it weird too, is like,
you know, there's so many other things going on with the Super Bowl.
And you have the representation of all those fucking things at the party.
The mom's talking about the commercials.
The guy who's fringe football fan is like trying to ask you questions about shit.
You say plainly obvious.
French.
Fringe.
Oh, I thought you said, like, there's a foreign guy there that's trying to, like, you know,
somebody brought out like a foreign guy and you're trying to, like, explain football to him.
Because, you know, random shit like that happens at football parties.
You're like, fuck.
That's what I'm saying.
It could be.
So, first down.
It could be French or fringe.
Either way, the guy's like.
So, this is, my home's guy.
He's pretty good, right?
You're like, he's only the best player in the league for the last five years.
Yeah, dude.
Yeah.
No, he's pretty solid.
you're not supposed to be here.
Right. Like, dude, you, yeah, you're, you are my wife's girlfriend's fringe boyfriend or French boyfriend.
And I don't want you here in the first place.
You can never really get the, uh, the party atmosphere right with the, with the personnel group.
Like, even if you have like four of your friends that are like dialed into the game, it's also kind of like a train wreck.
You know, like four people that are on the same page, it's, it's always kind of like, I don't know.
Is he into this?
You start thinking about the other people.
You're like, is he having fun?
That's just me anytime you're around
when we're not like recording something.
Oh, really?
I'm like, oh, fuck.
No, don't worry about me, man.
Because I'm doing that for you.
But like, you had a Super Bowl party as my nightmare.
Oh, no, I'm good.
I'm good.
You like to worry about me.
I'm just like, I'm the dog that doesn't have to have a leash and I'll be there.
It's my dream, but it's also my nightmare.
You know, it's like, it's so fun.
But I'm like, man, you just never know what he's feeling where he's bouncing around.
to, if he's got to get out of there, like what kind of time, what kind of clock is he on,
you know, because Ben Time is a whole different, you have a whole different watch than everybody
else, bro.
That's funny.
Ben time.
Might have to dip.
I don't know.
I'll be in the back, though.
All the back.
I'll make the rounds.
I'll sit up front for like, for like 14 minutes.
I'll be in the back, like, eating a lot of like dip and stuff like that.
Like, God, the fucking Betts guy at the Super Bowl party.
Shut up.
I don't know where that guy's sitting.
I think he might be in the middle, honestly.
Don't care about your props.
Betz guy's front and center.
And he's talking about it.
Jesus.
He's talking.
Oh, yeah.
No, I saw that.
Had to hammer it.
Had to hammer it.
I don't even know.
I can't even,
I can't even relate.
Absolutely hammered it.
Shut the.
fuck up.
All right.
Guy.
God.
From Walker.
You take the over?
It's like take candy from a baby.
Had to hammer it.
What are you talking about, man?
All right.
Title, these MF guys from Walker.
What's up,
boys?
Love the pod.
This email will have nothing of substance
other than the fact that Joey seems to really enjoy golf.
Fuck yeah, brother.
Please get Benny to play around with you.
I'd pay $497 million to watch that content.
Love that random number.
You knew what you were doing.
Anyways, keep it up.
Clubhouse seems to be growing,
and I look forward to these guys dropping every Tuesday.
Put a cork in my ass and kiss me.
Yeah!
Happy New Year!
Champagne.
But we should do guys who golf.
Have we done that?
Champagne.
I like how you had to clarify that for us.
No, we haven't because I can't get you to a golf course.
I'll do it.
Hey, dude, if we're making a vid on there.
No, I know.
I was wondering about that because I'm like, you know, if I want to make a golf video,
do I have to go schedule a tea time?
You know, like, am I scheduling a tea time to get out there and like be on the course just to do that?
Because you're probably not using all 18.
Just one.
Literally, if you're in and out on the, yeah.
So you got to pay 50 bucks for just one hole?
So would.
Yeah, I know you would.
I would too.
Or I'm like, are you thinking about sneaking in or like just asking them?
You would have to, you would have to either know somebody who like runs the front desk at the golf course or they would just, you'd have to get lucky and have it be like a cool college kid that's just like, oh, okay, right on. Yeah. I don't care. Like you got to have a cart and play.
You can't, you can't walk in there and get the guy who has the polo shirt tucked into the khakis. Jesus Christ. That guy, that's my final boss worst enemy. That guy had a country club.
Not a chance that's happening.
Work in the merch store.
He would look at you like you have six dicks coming out of your head.
No.
No.
Not here.
Maybe at Riverside or something, but not here.
Not on my.
You want to do what now?
Always just kind of has like a lot of mumbling.
A lot of noise going on.
Never completely silent.
Always.
Yep.
A lot of that.
Takes a big old deep breath.
Got a nose whistle going.
Sucks the air through the teeth.
That kind of.
of breath. I don't think we're going to have that happen here. Any guy with the tucked in shirt,
I'm kind of, really? I've been tucking. Really? I've been tucking and fucking. I've been tucking in
my joggers. Like I'll tuck a t-shirt into my joggers. Like when you're like in the morning or something?
Because I hate when I got too long like you have to be going for a certain look to have a shirt that's
kind of longer baggy. You know, if you have like black jeans or jeans on now and you have like a, you know,
kind of a longer bagger shirt.
All right, that's kind of, you know, I'll look going.
But like, if you're just wearing gym shorts and you have a T-shirt on, it's too long,
that's weird ratio.
I just tuck it in.
Yeah, I feel you.
I got to see it.
Joggers tucked in shirts next week.
My family gives me a lot of shit for it.
But I'm like, hey, I like it.
I feel more comfortable.
So you with joggers tucked in a shirt and a coffee in your hand?
And a hat on?
Come on.
Thanks, water.
He's not fucking and tucking.
Appreciate that.
And we will try to take you up on the $497 million.
From Daniel, this is titled Cleveland.
We had a conversation about Cleveland last week.
Follow up here.
Hi, fellas, first and foremost,
I enjoy listening to your podcast when I am in the car
because it's like I have my friends riding with me goofing off
and talking about sports and silly things in life.
Hell yeah.
Secondly, you have to come to Cleveland.
You could do a show at hilarities on East 4th Street.
Please let me know first if you do so I can get tickets.
Definitely well.
and also pop-up college game day on East 4th.
These are plenty of bars right there.
That dude just scooted by.
Plenty of bars right there that would make it perfect
and obviously make sure to have some pee-pee to draw the people in.
Oh my God, we're not doing it without pee-p-p.
That's also where they posted up for the NBA finals.
I agree with you on the Browns assessment.
My dad grew up in Pittsburgh and I still have some family that way,
so I was raised a Steelers fan.
I've been to a Steelers-Browns game in Cleveland
and 80-20% comment is accurate.
Got hit up a Cavs game though because they have a young,
talented team. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. They need to go. Johnny's a little bar for a good
dive bar meal and experience. If you need any other thoughts or recommendations, please let me know.
I love living here. Hope you have a great Fourth of July weekend. Yours truly, the mayor.
This is Christ, dude. What else is going on with the economy? Somebody from visit Cleveland
listens to our show. My God. Right there, man. Write in our Yelp review for it. Holy hell, bro.
No, I'm just kidding. Daniel. I'm not. I appreciate the, uh, appreciate you listening. And
and glad about that, but that is pretty funny.
Yeah, it's just like straight.
It's like the second paragraph.
That sounds crazy.
Second paragraph on Visit Cleveland.
It's just that.
Copy-based.
The whole intro.
Great young team, young talent.
Johnny's little bar.
Yeah, that sounds pretty fun though.
That does.
Hilarities on East Forth.
All right.
I get down with that.
Sounds like a fun place.
I heard that club was very nice.
V nice.
Really?
But any bar called Johnny's.
Anything called Johnny's.
I'm going.
For some reason, Johnny's house.
Johnny.
Just the funnest guy.
Johnny.
Yeah.
Such like a movie character name.
You know,
it's so basic,
but also such a movie character.
Yeah, that's Johnny.
Yeah.
Or TV.
Yeah.
Just a character on television.
Johnny.
Kind of a Johnsony guy.
Yeah.
I had a Johnny growing up,
but he didn't fuck with me really.
Why?
He would always,
he would do the thing
where like he would invite everybody over from the class
and I was the only person he wanted to invite.
Really?
Yeah.
What'd you do to him?
I,
you just didn't like me, bro.
That's so cold, man.
When you were younger like that?
He would literally have like,
yeah, fuck Joey.
Everybody and I would be the only one who didn't get.
Were your friends like, why didn't you invite Joey?
No, man, my friend, the fuck.
I'm kind of pissed.
They were just like, hey.
They didn't stick up for you.
They were like, it was like that gif of 50 cent
when he's just like,
and like takes off in the car.
That's what it was.
They were like, oh.
They're like,
nice pull.
Yeah,
they're like,
oh,
you're not going to Johnny's?
I'm like,
I didn't get invited.
And they're like,
oh,
well.
I don't think my friends would do that for me either, though.
They didn't give a fuck.
They were just like,
hey,
I'm invited.
Hey,
get your shit together with Johnny.
And we'll see you there next year.
They didn't give a shit.
They got the invite.
So fuck me.
God,
the phoma you had grown up.
There's nothing compared to that.
Yeah.
So.
you know you I didn't have I didn't have the best I didn't have the best Johnny I didn't get that
Johnny I didn't even had a Johnny honestly I met a Johnny recently it's pretty cool though
nice from Dustin Steelers fan you you dig good let's see here from Dustin was a gentleman question
for these guys I definitely do not hate the show I have rated it 10 out 10 on my notepad
and I use my ballpoint pen when I scored it I have to admit I'm feeling pretty gunky I
I just got finished with my 2024 fantasy football mock draft and prepping for 2025.
Wait, really?
I'm going to Jerome Bettis my league this season.
Anyways, I have a hypothetical for Joey.
I can't ask my girlfriend hypotheticals anymore because she doesn't like them.
Oh, shit.
This doesn't sound healthy.
How much would it take to pay you to play one more celebrity,
slow-pitched softball game with the same guys from last year where you went in yard and retired?
But during the first at bat, you intentionally whiff on your first swing and pretend to hurt
your back from it and then to clear yourself out for the game.
You'd have to pretend like it was real and never tell anyone except your wife that you
did it for the money. One million? Ten million? What's the minimum amount it would take for you?
Thanks, brethren. Keep up the championship level play. This is crazy. From Heavy D.
Man, I don't know what's going on there, Dustin. Uh, what time did he send that?
Were you like coked out when you? What time did he say that? I don't know. 224 a.m.
It just, it says June 30th.
What the fuck was he on? I don't know what was going on there. I appreciate you listening.
but that's about it.
No.
Well, I don't know if he's like, because a dude did that.
What?
Like the first year I was playing that game.
Uh-huh.
Jason Gilden, you remember him?
Yeah.
Yeah.
92, bro.
Yeah, yeah.
He was playing and like he literally struck out in slow pitch softball and he swung on his third,
you know, his third swing when he struck out.
He like went down with an injury and like hurt his back or something.
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
And like we were all, for a second, we were all.
kind of thinking it was like, oh, he's just playing it up because he struck out. And then it was like,
oh, no, maybe he actually has hurt. And we're like, also, you're Jason Gilden. You just struck out
a Slopitch softball game. Go on, bro. Hey, J.G. It's loosening up a little bit for the game, huh?
So, I mean, yeah, it could be a bit, but if you want to pay me a mill, I could do that. No problem.
No problem. A mill? All right. So it was mail time. Team these guys at gmail.com. Appreciate.
you and the clubhouse.
Ask us anything.
Are you doing it?
Are you going to a pool for the fourth?
I don't know, man.
I got nothing right now.
Really?
Nothing.
Nothing?
I love it so much.
You're going to be at the wit 100%?
Nah, I don't know about that.
Might be just be a chill fourth.
So you mean you're going to like, I don't know.
Throw your chill forth.
Probably listen to some Lincoln Park.
Eat something has nothing to do with Fourth of July.
Spaghetti.
Lincoln Park slaps.
Dude, I can't wait to have so many hot dogs these next couple days.
Oh, it's the ones on the fifth.
The hot dogs on the fifth.
That just are killer.
You know it.
Of course you can't eat.
I mean, they're good on the fourth.
Can't have a hot dog on the fourth.
They're good on the next day.
They're good on the fourth.
But on the fifth, it's like, yeah, the bread's kind of like a little soggy.
You know, you ever get that hot dog in the foil the next day?
Oh, I love it.
And it's like the bread's like part of the hot.
dog. It's not it's not two things. It's almost like a corn dog. Yep, yep. That's the hot dog
with the with the ketchup on it and you just put way too much on there with the mustard. I fucking,
I do. I love two bites. I love the, uh, I love the aluminum foil hot dog. The foil hot dog.
You show up at a party and they have foil hot dogs. So, like there's 600 of these things happen.
Like these are going down. You kind of think you're just. You kind of think you're just.
Joey Chestnut for a little bit?
You're like, I could.
If I wanted to be Joey Chet, I could.
I see how he does it.
Yeah.
Like, you're dunking it.
Oh, damn.
You know what?
I might do that tomorrow.
I've been watching like some hot dog shit on, like, it's popping up on my TikTok.
The way he's dunking that shit in water.
So gross.
It kind of looks good now.
No fucking way.
If you did it in Coke, I can see that not being too bad.
Like on some weird shit, you know.
Obviously, I'm not like, hey, happy fourth.
like I'm not doing that right when I walk in.
You're so right about the bun.
It needs to be fucking cradled around the dog.
Yeah.
I hate when the bun is like open and flabby and the dog's just kind of in the middle.
You need to like squeeze it together.
I'm like this isn't.
The bun,
that means the bun is kind of like too crusty a little bit.
It's like,
yeah,
it doesn't have that same warm feeling.
It's got to,
it's got to be a little soggy for me.
Sogy buns.
Sogy buns.
Sogy buns.
Gung. Soggy buns fourth right there. Soggy buns on the fourth. All right, man. Well, I appreciate
everybody listening. Hope you have a fourth, a good fourth of July, safe fourth of July, fun
fourth of July. Hope you get to listen to this way or on the road or on the boat or because apparently
I'm the only person, me and you are the only people who aren't on a boat or on a lake during the
4th of July. Yeah. So I appreciate you guys. Team these guys at gmail.com. Love the clubhouse. Love you

You're the quack zaddy.
Yeah, what are you telling the folks?
Yeah, can buy it in Westfield. 161st and Spring Mill.

We've got donut sandwiches too.
Shut up. What happens with that?
So they are the subway of donuts.
It's going to be kind of like a...
Come down here.

So I wanted to get you a fresh one.
But yeah.
Come on, man.
Oh, I'm coming through for a Sammy.
Shout out of quack daddy.
Thank you so much, man.
And to you guys.
Have a good fourth.
We'll see next time.
These guys.
Bye-bye.
Thank you.
