What's up, kids? Ha ha.
Starting point is 00:08:34 To eat candy. Yeah, but it was cool. It was. Like you said, like, once I got the kids down and I was just like sitting there watching football with wine, some candy. I was like, okay. That's a wrap. College football final. But actually, so on Saturday, I went down and stayed with my sister and her husband and brought the kids and everything.
Starting point is 00:08:59 Because I was like, you had Notre Dame, Texas A&M at 730, you know, LSU, Florida at 730. I was like, I want to watch these games with you guys. I'm not going to go down there and then come back. It's too late. The kids need to go to bed. I was like, I'm just staying down there. And so overnight bag? Overnight bag.
Starting point is 00:09:18 Yeah. Packed up the whole thing. I was really proud of myself. Clubhouse. I was a real, like, I made a packing list of everything I needed to get for the kids and myself. Micklob, Mickelob, Mickelob, Mickelub, Mickelob, monitor, zins, sour candy, sleep sack.
Starting point is 00:09:44 Pumpkin to throw in the middle of the street when Notre Dame gets stopped on the three-yard line. Zin, zin, zin, zin, zin, zz, zin, z z z z zx. Facking list. Spelled it wrong. Hey, hey. packing list. Packing lips.
Starting point is 00:10:04 I mean, packing lists. Shit, sorry. Remember how much you'd want to be able to make that sound in high school,
Starting point is 00:10:11 dude? When I was in kindergarten, the kids in eighth grade were whipping it. Oh, my God. I was like, bro, Keith Hatfield
Starting point is 00:10:19 can click it like that? That's crazy. I forget, I forget the oldest grandee's name, but I was like, bro, he was outside waiting
Starting point is 00:10:29 for his mom to pick him up. Just, whoosh, what, I was like, yo, I got to learn. I was in my backyard, walk around in circles. I got to get like the eighth graders, dog. I couldn't function, man.
Starting point is 00:10:42 It just didn't make any sense to me. It wasn't in my little brain. I didn't know. But then I did start dipping. Gotta get the wraps. The reps. Let's go, Schmitty. Dude, did you ever, would people ever, would people ever,
Starting point is 00:10:58 would dudes ever give you a hard time about being bad at packing, a packin can't. No, whenever I ever dipped, it was like pouches, man, I don't know. I was ripping, dude. Look how nervous he is at talk. Can you believe this shit clubhouse? This man actually used to chew tobacco. Who is this man?
Starting point is 00:11:21 Everybody did. I was like, all right, we're just doing this? Dude, believe, though, believe. Believe, I was thrown up all over the place the first time I did that. Oh, yeah, it's a right of passage. Just on some gimmey that. Bro, there was one kind that was sour and it tastes like sour candy. Not a reminiscent podcast.
Starting point is 00:11:41 But I was like, what? That was like kind of fire. There was one I fell in love with my freshman year of college. It was a green apple crisp. Make it sound any better, you know? God dang. Yeah, just in your mouth playing video games? I mean, freshman year of college too?
Starting point is 00:12:02 What the hell else am I doing? I'm just like walking. No idea what I'm doing. No clue what I'm doing. I vividly remember one time, it was probably a Monday or a Tuesday at like 2.30 p.m. Me and Alex Bill walk from the dorms at Ball State all the way to the nearest gas station.
Starting point is 00:12:24 We're like, should we, should we take the bus? And we step outside. We step outside. We're like, I don't know, it's a pretty nice day. You down to just like walk and talk? And I was like, yeah, let's do it. So we just trod at our happy ass, not a care in the world,
Starting point is 00:12:39 just going to get some apple crisp chewing tobacco. Then on the way back. On the ground. Let's go. Two dip heads. The rest of those two dip heads. Dude, I also, ball state again. I remember vividly,
Starting point is 00:13:02 I don't know why this happened. This is the, So a little bit of more origin for you guys. One of my favorite parts about me and Ben's relationship is that before we started working together and then doing espresso and our videos and now this and everything, we would always end up just the most random times to where someone who I would be with like DJ Dialon or or I don't even know who, Danny Rojas or some shit. it'd be like, yeah, I think Politsi's coming too. I'd be like, what if we'd be going to a party? One night, it was like 2013 or 2014.
Starting point is 00:13:43 We were going up to a party at Ball State, and we were meeting at the school you guys are at. And Dylan, I'm pretty sure. It was just like, yeah, I think Ben wants to come too. And I was like, all right, yeah, like, Politi, let's go. Like, anytime Politi comes, it's going to be fun. Like, I know I'm going to laugh. It's going to be fun.
Starting point is 00:14:02 But then, like, whatever been. But then whenever been. Ben would come. It was always cool because, like, we just spoke the same language even then. So then, like, me and him and a couple of our other buddies would always just end up being the idiots that are, like, sitting in the corner, playing the music, chewing tobacco. And I remember at this party that we were at me, him, and DJ Dylon sat on this couch and literally had the best time doing nothing but just like, just, just horseshoe dipping being morons. Like, it was so fun.
Starting point is 00:14:36 R1, R2, L2 R2. Yeah, we had that PS2 controls. Because, yeah, all right, you can't expand on it because no one knows what we're talking about, but yeah. I don't remember that at all, by the way. Really?
Starting point is 00:14:51 I remember going there, but I don't remember, like, on the couch, I don't think. Dude, I just, yeah, because I was just like, I always got, I like, you know, some real shit, I guess, but like, I always, I was never great. get apart. Like I always would get like in my head and like nervous and shit. And I wouldn't want to like, I wouldn't want to like get out of my zone. So once I found people, I was just like, cool.
Starting point is 00:15:13 I'm got my people right here. I'm good. We're going to have fun. I was, I'm never a big. It's like, what's up, bro? Yeah. Okay. Oh, yeah. So what? Oh, so you live cross campus? Oh, oh, sick, man. Yeah. You're studying. Oh, you're studying fun. Okay. Yeah. I was just, that was never, ever me. Didn't give a shit. Didn't, didn't want to. No, I still can't. And, yeah, we were just like, we would play, like, the all-of-that team. Yeah. I know what you're talking about now.
Starting point is 00:15:43 Chill. Didn't. That's kind of me at every party. This is a good night. I don't even know we were going on it. We were talking about dip. Diphead. And walking across, we're all walking across campus.
Starting point is 00:15:58 I just like to give a little peek. I just like to give a little peek behind the curtain. for people who only know you as Benny from F Boy Island or Benny from Play cat calling. Just a normal guy, man. Just your normal JV guy. Normal average JV running back should be my username. Average JV running back.
Starting point is 00:16:25 Bald JVRB coach. It's really me if you really boil it down. I'm not. not all these things, babe. I'm just the guy signaling the fake play next to the head coach. Dude, maybe you give a little insight into that, actually. You know, we're heading into week four college football, you know, week three of the NFL.
Starting point is 00:16:54 And so these things pop up on your screen more and more that you kind of forget about all summer and spring. And one thing for me is especially in college. really only in college. When the four different guys who wear like the baby blue Notre Dame hat, the bright green Notre Dame hat, the bright red Notre Dame hat, I know they're doing the dummy calls, but do you know, like, do any of them actually,
Starting point is 00:17:20 are they actually providing any of the real calls or is it all just BS nonsense? One of them is, for sure, one of the guys is the real one. The other two are fake. Like, there's one guy, unless they've got another guy in the press box. But, like, the quarterback has to get the play from the sideline, you know? So, I mean, they don't have, like, mics in their helmet, so he's got to get it from somebody. So if the guy is just giving the QB the play, the defensive corner is like, I saw him do that last time. They're running the out.
Starting point is 00:17:53 So there's two dummy guys, like, doing kind of the same thing. But different directions or different, like, formations. Oh, my God. Then they're all, like, three, two. two, one, and they all all three of them in sequence like, end the call. I don't think it gets talked enough about how
Starting point is 00:18:11 much pressure that is. Oh, bro. Yeah. It's a big job. But like if you got both the backup quarterbacks, the quarterbacks know the playbook. So like if you if you tossed a DB in there, like they would not, yeah, that guy's the dummy guy, like for sure. But the QBs know what they're doing, dude. Like, they're in the playbook.
Starting point is 00:18:33 They know, they got it. I wish we could get a college team to, like, put one of us in uniform or both of us in uniform go out there and be, like, two of the four dummy guys. That would be a really funny sketch. Purdue Pete head on. Hey, hey, hey, hey. You know, I'm going. Michael Myers mask. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:19:05 Now, that would be hard, bro. Like a good team? Oh, my God. I don't even think, dude, one ghost face, one Michael Myers, doing all.
Starting point is 00:19:15 One Chucky. One Chucky. With the knife. Dude, that would go, I mean, I think that would kind of, I don't know if that's allowed.
Starting point is 00:19:29 Because I don't, I think maybe you have to, I guess the numbers would be on your chest. But I'm just wondering if covering even, but I, everybody covers their mouth
Starting point is 00:19:39 with a play sheet, like the call sheet anyways. Yeah. funny. Now let's go down to the sideline. Oh my God. Dude, imagine it. Hey, imagine it too, like Halloween weekend. Yep. Neeland Stadium.
Starting point is 00:19:59 Tennessee wearing all black. Tennessee does do it the best on Halloween. Kind of makes me sick to my stomach, but they do. It's too bad. Hey, one guy, one guy too just has a jack a lantern on his head. There's a straight pumpkin head. Pumpkin seeds all over the side.
Starting point is 00:20:18 The guts all over the sideline. What a cool, what a cool behind the scenes all access a little special that would make. Going shopping at Spirit Halloween at that wall of masks with the backup quarterbacks doing the dummy calls. Stop, bro. I love that wall of masks.
Starting point is 00:20:41 That's like my dream for some reason. It's awesome. Why is it so sick? I'm like, how'd you even come up with that? Seven eyes on that alien? I'm like, yo, the time it had to take to make that mask. Did I imagine my mom walking in there and being so mad? Just every time I'm in there.
Starting point is 00:21:00 Has a mom ever been like, I'll go in there? No mom. I'll be in Walmart while you guys. Yeah, she opts for Walmart, which arguably could be worse than Spira Halloween. There's a few places like that that a mom. no matter what. It's like a baseball card shop. Every mom.
Starting point is 00:21:18 God. Five minutes. Not giving you any money. You can look. Baseball card shop. Spirit Halloween. Halloween store. Game stop.
Starting point is 00:21:31 Game stop. That's the three. That's the holy triumphant right there. Just nothing in there for him. I'm like, can you pretend for a minute? Nothing? Yeah. Those are all the places.
Starting point is 00:21:43 one to go going up to. That's literally my top three. Masked store. Dude, a one time mask store, video game store. And then like just, dude,

Starting point is 00:42:41 7 and 5 but Kentucky's like 9 and 3 somehow yeah that is so crazy I would watch that hell out of that I always hate I would too but I was hate when like one school has an incredible season that you're like wow this is kind of a magical ride and they end up yeah the gasperillible against some team that like you know
Starting point is 00:43:02 so disappointed definitely definitely underwhelmed I'm like this doesn't it doesn't equal it doesn't match up right I know just like a big program that had a bad year
Starting point is 00:43:15 right Florida but but for the other for the other team it's the biggest game of their of their entire program history damn what a start there Gasparilla dude
Starting point is 00:43:28 let's go to Ken Ken says, Station, know about Howie Long's new frames? Hey, guys, I know this isn't a big NFL pregame show podcast, but what are your thoughts on Howie Long's new glasses? I turn on Fox at noon to see Howie rocking the clear frame glasses. Feels a bit too modern for Howie. A pair of dark frame glasses of the perfect compliment to his pristine flat haircut.
Starting point is 00:43:58 And he attached a picture. Ben, if you want to pull that up. Oh, shit. God, should this just be Actually, you know what? When you see it, should this just be our profile picture for these guys, L.O.L. follow at these guys L.O.L. It's Howie Long and right below him,
Starting point is 00:44:16 the graphic is Lions at Packers later today. God, this might need to be the profile pick. Yeah, this is so perfect, bro. Just him mid-sentence. Lions at Packers, dude. Yo, I can, dude, put a circle around him. Howie Long hanging on. The frames match the hair, though.
Starting point is 00:44:50 Not bad. But yeah, he does look like a completely different person now. That's not my Howie, honestly. That is true. Later today. That is true. And it was, that's a good point, Ken. I did notice that.
Starting point is 00:45:04 It was jarring. I don't know. I think maybe because of the switch to the frames that matched the, the, the light hair with the light frames that made me realize oh wow this guy like he's aging yeah I know
Starting point is 00:45:19 what are we talking about here right old Howie Long that Howie I'm like he can still like give you like a rip move and get to the quarterback he could come in on third downs third down package
Starting point is 00:45:37 he's barking he's gonna run away anyway that's all good I just like dude everybody's asleep. I'm trying to do. It's 9 o'clock. What could you possibly be barking at?
Starting point is 00:45:50 Either somebody's breaking in my house. I'm going to die. Or they're just being obnoxious. God. Go get them, dude. We need to do the station ID again. How long up there? Oh, it's Terry Bradshaw.
Starting point is 00:46:13 Oh, my God. Even worse. You go upstairs Terry Bradshaw behind a wall. Believe this. My house got broken into by the Fox pregame show. That sounds, dude, that sounds like, that sounds like a commercial that would be our favorite commercial of all time.
Starting point is 00:46:34 Oh, yeah. Wait, check the kitchen. J.B.'s in there drinking coffee. You're like, how he's like bringing in groceries. Terry's sitting. Terry, of course, like coming out of the bathroom in a towel. Dude's always naked for some reason.
Starting point is 00:46:53 Gronk, like breaks through your garage door. You're like, whoa! just wanted to check the oil or some shit I just thought that maybe it'd be good if I came in this way butabum butababoo all probo to watch Fox about how like they're part of your family
Starting point is 00:47:14 you know like you're family with Fox on NFL Sunday I would love that that that'd be that's an awesome commercial right there that's great all right anyways I It was the young one. It was the new one, the puppy that we got.
Starting point is 00:47:33 He was just in the dining room, just barking. I don't know. Doors are locked. Nobody's at the front door. I have no idea. Shilling. Whatever. Okay, from Blake.
Starting point is 00:47:44 Tony Romo on Dallas Mavericks. Boys, followed you both on Instagram for a minute, but just discovered the pod in the past few months. Welcome. Wow. My email title is in reference to the time that Dallas Mavericks. let Tony Romo suit up for a regular season game before he officially retired. He practiced with the team leading up to the game, went through game day procedures,
Starting point is 00:48:10 including pregame shoot around and warmups, not me buying a ticket that day to go thinking he may get some minutes. Oh. I mean, you don't want to be the guy who missed out on that opportunity. I'm like a weird Wednesday night. Let's just go. How did I miss Tony Romo playing for the maps? Yeah. It's a corner three.
Starting point is 00:48:33 Romo Mavs, Jersey. He's so hard. Throwing it back to last week's pod, a few accessories to add to your funeral bed fit would be a cowboy collar and a helmet with the communication device complete with a green sticker blasting. My God is an awesome God. Also from that pod, while I'm going to failure repping 135 on bench, the part of the pod where you guys were talking about girls always trying to. to bring you down in your highest moments
Starting point is 00:49:04 and calling you a hot shot who literally smelled like shit broke me mid-rep with laughter to the point where I almost needed to spot to get the bar back up. Finally, not a sports pod, but throwing it back to a few months ago talking players who would look good
Starting point is 00:49:20 in other jerseys, I have a few modern day examples. Luca Donchich, Orlando Magic Penstripe jersey with stars, Justin Jefferson, Tennessee Titans red alternate. it. Otani Diamondbacks
Starting point is 00:49:36 white vest steel purple jerseys. Oh, that is great right there. I can picture that. Like you played for him almost. Sent from my sidekick phone in one hand I could never afford while my other hand holds my motorized go-ped scooter.
Starting point is 00:49:50 I could never afford. And he said, dude, he sent the screenshot. This is a screenshot pod, but he, you know, watch, babe. Oh, my God. Sorry, I just opened my phone.
Starting point is 00:50:04 Holy cow. This is from Blake. And it is, it is, it is, Romo in the flesh. Screenshot podcast. Screenshot podcast.
Starting point is 00:50:16 No way. Oh my God. Jesus Christ. I vaguely, when you were, when I was reading that, I was like, I think I remember that.
Starting point is 00:50:27 Like I was in my senior year in college or I just graduated. It's kind of can give me memories back. But the picture, I, now I'm like, Yep. I can see the SportsCenter segment where they played like his intro and everything. This is going to be fun.
Starting point is 00:50:45 It's going to be fun with Jim. The things I do to have that jersey. I wonder if you could look. There's got to be some available. I'll make it. I'll customize it. Romo 9. How come I always have you told me Romo?
Starting point is 00:51:00 I think it's Darren Rovel every time I see him. Like, why is Darren Ravel at the Mavs? it's Tony Romo. Yeah, I can see. Like, Darren Ravel is like his, Darren Vell's like the little runt brother of a guy like Tony Romo. Everybody's first follow on Twitter, Darren Ravel. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:23 You know how like there'll be those superstar athletes, like the quarterback who has it all. And then his little brother is just like, didn't get any of the genetics. It was just like a nerd. I hate that. I'm like, nothing, dude. You don't play or try
Starting point is 00:51:38 Yeah, I know you got it in Yeah Romo and Revelle dude Wow how much a new podcast They're new Mike and Mike Romo and Ravel Back and better than ever Let's go to Ty
Starting point is 00:51:56 Subject line Tyrone Wheatley Oh my God You have my attention Hey guys Ty from Atlanta here Third Time emailer Joey I heard you as a guest on the Fine Bomb show weeks ago.
Starting point is 00:52:11 Typically, when I've seen, I heard you on these sports shows, you're highly entertaining, going from impression and impression. However, in this one, it was very cringe, awkward and entertaining all in one. I couldn't tell if you and Paul
Starting point is 00:52:20 were both trolling or legitimately being serious with the back and forth. However, it was a very good banter between you and Powell on SEC versus Big Ten Japs. That got me thinking about your first guests
Starting point is 00:52:30 on the podcast. My recommendations for your guests at no particular order are Fine Bomb, Marty and McGee. Oh, yeah. You and Ben, just 15 years older
Starting point is 00:52:38 and Southern. Your friend Schiller, your friend Joe King, Casey from F. Boy Island and his dog, Bill Murray. That's crazy. Dude knows ball. Yeah, thanks, Ty. No, it was super weird. Like, I've been on Five Bomb show before and it was fun. And he, like, had me do impressions and stuff.
Starting point is 00:53:00 And it was all good. But then, like, him and his people reached out to have me on after I announced that I was doing this produce show. this year. Like, hey, we'd love to have you on to talk about, like, what you're doing now with this Purdue gig and just kind of like college football in general. And I was like, okay, yeah, sure. And then all of a sudden I got on there and Feinbaum was just like, just being the biggest fucking dickhead. And I was like, what was he saying? Dude, he was just like being such a prick. And I was like, you asked me to be here. Like, I don't, I don't need to be here. I didn't want to be on your show. didn't have like a PR person hitting you up to have me on your show like you people reached
Starting point is 00:53:45 out I was like sure yeah like if you want me on I'll come on and then a sudden he's like got me in a corner man it was an ambush attack like it was fucking bullshit do you get out of there alive or what are you gonna go back on the show I about left the call like he's being such an asshole I was like fuck you what he say like could you remember what he said he was just like giving so many jabs and shit at Purdue and like me and like what I do and like doing the whole like so how's a comedy you know it's a comedy thing you're still doing it like is it still working for you and I was like yeah fuck stick I was like yeah it is you know I like I have a really good life and like I do whatever the hell I want like it just pissed me off so much man I was like don't ask me to
Starting point is 00:54:31 come on your fucking show dude and then make me sit here like I'm in rocky Balboa facing and Mr. T in the corner. Your impression of him, dude. Dude, it was so annoying, man. I thought it was just like a friendly, like, yeah, well, come on, we'll talk college football. Maybe you'll have me do a Saban impression. Glad to do it.
Starting point is 00:54:54 And then he came on and he was acting as if, like, I begged to be on his show. I was like, I don't need to be on your fucking show, dude. Like, he was such an asshole, dude. He was such an asshole. and I like oh man so like yeah all those things you said Tyler I just want you to know that like
Starting point is 00:55:12 I too was feeling all that because I was like I don't know what I was supposed to do here like I'm gonna defend Purdue because I work for them and like this is it was just it was really weird and annoying you think you'd go back on if he asked
Starting point is 00:55:27 I don't know anyways um yeah uh chiller Joe those are all be good guess insane
Starting point is 00:55:41 insane line up yeah now I'm all pissed off thinking about that bullshit interview again can't wait to look that up we'll link it underneath dude
Starting point is 00:55:56 dude I'm like sit down here I'm like what am I doing here why am I I know though I swallowed it I swallowed it
Starting point is 00:56:06 and I just was like I just went with it and just fulfilled the rest of the interview because I was like I was hovering. I was hovering over leaving the Zoom call. My mouse was right there.
Starting point is 00:56:18 Like getting ready to click it. Oh, good call. Good call. Yeah. But I was like, that'll cause more of a thing if I do that. So I just was like, yeah, it's great, Paul. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:56:29 Yeah. All right. From Eric. We were talking about dipping earlier in the show. He says dipping on the bus ride home. Throw up city. Longtime listener and email a clubhouse for life And possibly a JV football coach and social studies teacher
Starting point is 00:56:51 But this is not a JV football podcast I'm also not 49 years old Nor did I watch lovers and liars on my patio While flipping channels back to the Boise State Fresno State game at 1130 on a school night Didn't happen I'd simply like to know if there's anything better in life As a JV football player
Starting point is 00:57:08 Than to sneak a dip on the bus right home From an away game after a win You just played in front of a pack stadium of 37 people. Missed your stalk block at wide receiver, but the running back cut the other way and it went on noticed. And didn't go off sides once.
Starting point is 00:57:23 He also did a great job of signaling to the official that you're on the line of scrimmage and it's a legal formation. I mean, great day or what? Ben, who's not buying that? Slap my ass four on pads that double as gloves and seven tans of Kodiak. Eric from Saratoga.
Starting point is 00:57:41 Ah, Eric, I knew. It's been a while since you emailed. I knew that who this was. Bro, the forearm pads that went with the pad here too, when our linemen had those, I was like, oh, shit's getting real in the trenches. I was like, whoa, we're padding up like that. We kind of got some swag on the O line.
Starting point is 00:58:00 All right. No, I was never one to sneak a dip, dude. Never wanted to get in trouble like that. You had to be, obviously, in like the last half of the bus. If you're halfway, through those getting risky. If you're at the very back, it was almost too obvious.
Starting point is 00:58:17 You had to be, I don't know, like three or four rows from the back, like three quarters of the way in the bus. I was always just like, in the back of my head, I'm like, dude, if we get caught, like it's going to be so much running. Like, not even worth it. Honestly, just not worth it.
Starting point is 00:58:34 Yeah, I don't think I ever did it probably because of those same things, but I know a lot of, like, a lot of our teammates. did it. A lot of my teammates did it. Never could, bro. Just didn't want that. Take that bag. Maybe not a lot.
Starting point is 00:58:55 But there were the guys and you knew. And like, it's always, it's a dudes that would go to the bathroom during the day and during school. That was wild to me.
Starting point is 00:59:11 Like, you know, that bad? Like, you know how bored are you got to be? I always thought that too. I was always like, there's too much of maintenance that goes on with that for you to be gone for that time that amount of time yeah what are you doing with that are you taking a spitter from
Starting point is 00:59:29 the cafeteria that you can then throw away like you're not gone you can't be gone for that long it's a bathroom break crazy I'd be too paranoid I mean you a line on that shit like yeah what I've wanted to yeah but
Starting point is 00:59:48 you know I'll all be soft or whatever And I'll exchange that for my mental well-being of like, all I'm going to be thinking about is how much trouble I'm going to get in. Jesus, not. Who gives a shit? Just to be buzzing at school. Like, hey, why not just hold out for 3.30 in the parking lot of McDonald's in your 2002 Chevy Impala?
Starting point is 01:00:17 That's where it goes down, dude. Circle K. Or in the basement of your. buddy's house where you're just playing NCAA and I need to be in a dip safe place good dip safe
Starting point is 01:00:33 dip zone dip zone certified dude basement dip zone yeah you're so right but then it always became like what do with the spitters it's just too much there's too much going on with all that
Starting point is 01:00:56 that was a grossest thing bro just collecting spit I'm like this is so what am I doing yeah I'm an animal like tell me anything more embarrassing than a guy with a bottleful spit I'm like you're disgusting bro
Starting point is 01:01:15 it's like seeds in there too I think excuse me I think that that it's also a dip safe zone to not get in trouble at that age but also a dip safe zone of it's just okay and welcome. And a lot of them, they coincided. There was crossover there because you're, you know,
Starting point is 01:01:40 if you're in a basement for a party, that's a dip safe zone because you're in a basement, but it's not a dip safe zone because there's girls there. And it's a party. But if you're in a basement on a Saturday night, not shit's going on, just you and two other your boys playing FIFA, or NCAA,
Starting point is 01:02:00 then it's a dip safe zone because it's basement. It's a dip safe, dip safe zone because it's just you and three other meathead idiots. You ever have the bro who like, who like can't dip around his girlfriend and his girlfriend pops up and he's like, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:02:23 And I was always the guy that didn't have that problem at all. So I'd have to like cover for it. him. That's so stupid. Thinking back to like, yeah, well, what is it your wife?
Starting point is 01:02:35 Dude, you've been dating for five months. Dude, pretty much, though. She's like calling, she's like calling him
Starting point is 01:02:41 by his full name and shit. In high school, when you have a girlfriend, you're pretty much married. Like, that's pretty much like trial run. For sure. Man,
Starting point is 01:02:52 if I could, if I could go back, just, that would, it doesn't matter. No of any of that matters. Oh, that high school shit? I just shake myself like Billy Madison kid.
Starting point is 01:03:11 I kind of knew a little bit deep down. I'd be like this, all this shit though. Like we're just doing it for now. I was never like, this is going to last for ever. I never really thought that. I mean, I think everybody, yeah, but the same, like, you're just so, your world is so small and you're just so like in everything. You know what I mean? Yeah.

Starting point is 01:03:48 Dude, that was big shit. Oh, it was. Yeah, absolutely. I'm just saying like every week I just, we remind ourselves, we just age ourselves out. We were from the generation that MapQuest directions to games that had CD play that had CD cases in our cars
Starting point is 01:04:06 and that one began the paper dude the paper sounds old but do they still do that do they still have the paper I bet they still probably do but I think for kids now who are like waking up on Saturday morning going to film and everything
Starting point is 01:04:20 like Twitter I remember we would pick it up on McDonald's or whatever it'd be like oh see it you know what the little write-up was who got the stats in there but now yeah I think it's just Twitter. It's like whatever Kyle Nedenrep tweeted from Indy Star He's kind of a boss. He's kind of a boss.
Starting point is 01:04:37 Yeah. But he was doing that shit for us just on the paper. And now he's just tweeting about it. Crazy. Yeah. Let's go to Let's start crying.

Starting point is 01:06:17 I don't know. I think I'm gonna puka. That's great. I love that. I think a lot of those espresso podcasts might be on my YouTube if you scroll all the way down to the bottom. But like, they might be kind of rough. But I mean, whatever.
Starting point is 01:06:29 Oh my God. That piss me off so much. We had like probably 100 episodes that all got deleted. Remember that? They were like trying to get the code switched over and dude, it was a mess. Yeah. I think there's probably those ones when we do it in that studio together. Wave 1.
Starting point is 01:06:56 And like, yeah, in like 2019, when I was like right at the end, we started recording them there before I went to Barstool. and then intermittently what I'd pop on with you all at that studio like the Ty Pendington episode I think is probably on there that's there for sure Yeah There might be some even older ones that we recorded At the station on my
Starting point is 01:07:20 Main YouTube page scroll all the way down So that was back when we had like segments and shit Kind of hard I'd like come up with them or try to And just like I don't know Hey, dripping or tripping. Dripping or tripping Matt Helmets. Tripping.

Starting point is 01:08:29 I can't do it anymore Dude even Michigan I'm like guys Get to shine Are you kidding me It's time to get the shine back baby It was cool for like a year a little bit.
Starting point is 01:08:43 Just because it was different. That's it. That's it. That's it. Like it was cool for like high school teams to like randomly bust that out. Whoa, Matt Helmets as a high school kid, that's raw. But like an NFL team with Matt Helmut, Vikings, kid. Be yourself, bro.
Starting point is 01:09:03 Shiny purple with the sparkle. Oh! Metro Dome Lights. Mission. Michigan too though You're so right, man Michigan's a whack for that Give me a little chat handy
Starting point is 01:09:17 to Mario Manningham Shiny ass Navy helmet With the Nike swoosh in the collar Everybody forgot who they were Didn't they? It's too bad Hey Clemson purple jerseys Drippin
Starting point is 01:09:30 Those are hard White pants though Tripping White pants on the Clemson jersey I think they could still do it I'm a fan of like the triple mismatch. White pants, purple jersey, orange helmet, looks kind of good sometimes.
Starting point is 01:09:45 I just hate white pants with a colored jersey. Just looks like a practice uniform. Especially if the pants don't have stripes. I'm like, okay, somebody ran out of money. Somebody forgot their pants. Notre Dame did that. Notre Dame went from, they'd wear that with their green
Starting point is 01:10:01 jerseys. I was like, are we forgetting Joe Montana? Are we forgetting Brady Quinn and Jeff Somarja? Like, the gold top green jersey green pants yeah or gold pants they were wearing white pants with the gold
Starting point is 01:10:19 yeah yeah I hate it I mean Notre Dame's got to switch it up a little bit because they're so traditional and they'll do like those those like really bad uniforms like once every year do they still do that shamrock the Shamrock series dude like a lot of those I mean
Starting point is 01:10:34 Shamrock Station station out of that Shamrock Shamping now dripping or tripping Tyrese Halliburton's shoes. I kind of forget what they look like. I wish he would have worn them in the finals, right? Or did he? He did.
Starting point is 01:10:57 Oh, I wish I would have been available to buy in the finals. Those would have gone crazy, right? Like when the Pacers were like about to win the finals? Didn't account for him tearing his Achilles, but. Oh, whoops. Um, damn, I'm going to say, I kind of, I think they're tripping. Really? I like them.
Starting point is 01:11:25 Going dripping. I like them. I don't think they would look good on me because I'm 32 and white and don't play like pickup hoops or anything like that. But I like them. I like the look of them. I wish I could. I'm looking at the Pacers color way right now.
Starting point is 01:11:47 Are you talking about those? They're like the pink. I didn't think I've seen the Pacers color. Is it just the blue one? Because I've just seen the pink ones. He wore the pink ones in the finals. They're kind of tough. The Pacers color.
Starting point is 01:11:57 If you're, like, going to a Pacers game or something, I can see you wearing those. Just on some, like, go Pacers shit. They look comfy. Yeah, they do. I like, I think Anthony Edwards' shoes. Pretty dope.
Starting point is 01:12:13 Even though they're Adidas, I think they did the right thing. But I'm a big, I'm like, I like shoes that are, like, two, like one big design on them. Like, the perfect basketball shoe to me was the Dwayne Wade, when Duane Wade was like the flash for the heat
Starting point is 01:12:29 and it was just like him and chat. He had those all black converts with the white over the top of the shoe. Those were the hardest shoes to me. Because like you could just point him out on screen. You're like, dude, those wades. And he looked so fast in him. They just had like a white stripe. That's all you need, I think.
Starting point is 01:12:45 Just some simple little design on there. And that's kind of what they're doing with Anthony Edwards. Damn, man. Yeah. Like that just took me back there. I literally when I was in fifth and sixth grade, played in those. Those are hard.
Starting point is 01:12:58 And like TeamX too have that one little detail, that one white, that little like over the top. Kind of sick. There's a couple of others like that too.
Starting point is 01:13:07 They're just like so simple and white and black. I'm like, oh, it goes hard. But somebody has really good ones. Oh, John Morant's shoes
Starting point is 01:13:14 right now, bro. You've seen those? You've seen those. I know you have. With the swoosh, it's turned so it looks like a j. It's so you. Those are the coolest shoes
Starting point is 01:13:26 in the past. like 10 years dude. Like if you're a kid in like the AAU circuit like you're buying those shoes. I might have to get myself a pair. Dude those are the sour airheads of shoes right there.
Starting point is 01:13:44 We can talk shoes all day on this podcast. We really haven't opened up these guys shoe pot like we we can talk shoes on here bro. That's so true. As you're saying that was like the J for me it's sick but I'm looking at it looks like a fucking lickable ass candy.
Starting point is 01:14:00 That's a laughy tag. Like a lickable ass shoe right there. Those are tough. And they got like, I want to be walking around where, yeah, I want to be walking around wearing those, eating like some airhead extremes,
