This is an I-Heart podcast.
Hello, America's sweetheart Johnny Knoxville here.
I want to tell you about my new true crime podcast,
Crimeless, Hillbilly Heist, from Smartless Media,
campside media, and big money players.
It's a wild tale about a gang of high-functioning nitwits
who somehow pulled off America's third largest cash heist.
Kind of like Robin Hood, except for the part where he's still,
from the rich and gifts to the poor.
I'm not that generous.
It's a damn near inspiring
true story for anyone out there
who's ever shot for the moon
then just totally muffed up
the landing. They stole $17 million
that had not bought a ticket
to help him escape. So we're saying like,
oh God, what do we do? What do we do?
That was dumb.
People do not follow my example.
Listen to Crimless,
Hillbilly Heist on the IHeart Radio app,
Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcast.
The murder of an 18-year-old girl in Graves County, Kentucky, went unsolved for years,
until a local housewife, a journalist, and a handful of girls came forward with a story.
America, y'all better work the hell up.
Bad things happens to good people in small towns.

And this week on our podcast, Hungry for History, we talk oysters plus the Mianbi Chief stops by.
If you're not an oyster lover, don't even talk to me.
Ancient Athenians used to scratch names onto oyster shells to vote politicians into exile.
So our word ostracize is related to the word oyster.
No way.
Bring back the OsterCon.

Happy five year anniversary
T II Nation
Oh wow the nation out there
Lito
Feels like just yesterday we posted the best of
I would say growing strong
But we're not
We're stagnant
We are stagnant with our growth
Strong strongly stagnant
Yeah the fans that are there
they listen er week.
Yes.
And we appreciate, we appreciate you guys.
Yes, we love them.
Yeah.
We really do, man.
That is pretty crazy.
Like five years is an insane amount of time.
You know, like, when you're in a crowd of people like a concert or a bar or something and you like, you don't want to move.
You've got a good position.
Yep.
You got to stand strong.
Absolutely.
And when someone kind of like pushes through, you know what they're doing.
That's how we're standing.
That's how we're standing.
We're standing strong.
Okay.
And Blake, close your eyes.
Who's performing at this concert?
I'm still going to say it.
Sticks.
This is Sticks.
Sticks.
Yeah.
A band that was popular when our dads were...
Adam?
He said it.
I'm honoring my father by being at this concert.
I'm with my dad at the concert.
Oh, okay.
And they're trying to push in between...
Your strength together.
They're trying to push between me and my father.
A band that was very successful when our dads were 25 years
younger.
Does Sticks did Sail Away?
That's who Sticks is?
Who does Stix?
I think so.
Yeah.
Come sail away.
The big, the super drum set, that's them?
Oh, it's either them or yes.
That was Rush.
Rush had a super drum set.
Oh, Rush, okay.
It's definitely some frog rock band, for sure.
Neil Purt.
Yes, all right.
Neil Purt.
Neil Purt is from what band?
Rush.
Rush.
Rush.
Yeah, he's a very important member.
It's a good documentary.
Mm-hmm.
Yes, my uncle, when I learned, I was trying to learn how to
play the drums in like the eighth grade and my parents bought me because it's just fucking
pussy magnet dude i was like i gotta be slurping i gotta be slurping give me a drums i gotta be slurping
daddy needs a drum stick daddy needs a drum set once i get in a high school i gotta be slurping
so i got a drum set for like 70 dollars it was such a piece of shit it was like you punch you
like when you would hit the like a you you you're a head the head drum head the drum head when you
would hit it the head would like dent in sure it would like dent it had soft spots like
you mean like the rim or in the like on the canvas thing or whatever no in the part that you're
that you're that you're supposed to hit yeah the skin do they call this skin the skin yeah
you were hitting the skin sure like i said like i said yeah because that's what they say the if you hit the
skins, you'll, you'll be slurping in no time.
Slurping.
Daddy wants to slurp.
And so then my uncle, I was like trying to learn how to play.
I knew one beat, and I'm pretty sure you guys have seen me play this beat.
It's, do, dun, da, da, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, da, da.
Yeah, you always do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
Yeah, that's so I got my one beat.
And then people were like, oh, you could play.
And I'm like, I cannot.
Yeah.
So I was learning how to play, and my uncle then
gave me a DVD
of, it might have been a VHS
at this point. Oh, hell yeah.
And yeah, I think it was
a VHS of
Neil Pert.
He took all of his, because
my uncle, like, loves live, like
recordings of live shows. Yeah. And a lot
of them are, that he snuck
in his camera and filmed himself. So it's
like a shitty back of someone's head.
Right. Uh, viewing of
Neil Purt drumming. And he cut
like a super mix. That person probably
standing pretty strong, though.
Yeah, that guy was standing strong.
There's no doubt.
Absolutely.
There was a super mix of that.
And then I saw Neil Perk actually drumming, and it made me want to quit.
He was too good.
Yeah.
You don't, when someone's first starting, you don't show them the best that there ever was.
Yeah.
Where do you start?
What drummer?
Maybe you go with, like, the dude from, like, presidents of the United States of America.
I think he used, like, just a snare.
That's all he used.
A snare.
Maybe there was some symbol.
Yeah, I feel like that's probably where you got to start.
Start was just a dude who's slaying a snare drum.
He just had a snare.
Well, I bet he's fucking really good at it.
I feel like the beginning of the lump song is just the dooms, doon, doom, doon, do you know what?
I could just be envisioning a music video I saw.
Like the only song I know from these guys starts off with just a doon, do.
No, that's bare naked ladies.
No, that's crash test dummies.
There was this girl.
Yeah, sorry.
Sorry.
Yeah, that's crashed test dummies.
Bare naked ladies is...
We are so old.
...is the chicken song.
Yeah.
Chick-a-Chinese, which we come.
Yeah.
And President of the United States of America, of course, it's lump.
Of course, it's Peaches.
Of course, it's a little blue dune buggy.
Yeah, they fucking...
Of course it's that third one, you mentioned.
Third one.
My mock five.
That might be from the second album.
I followed it all the way to number two.
Yeah, I mean, you say,
that, but that band actually kind of fucking
rips. Peaches, rocks.
Pot U.S.A? They're one of the best. Lump is a party
started for sure. That album, their first album,
is literally flawless. Is it called
the Presidents of the United States? Yeah, and it's got
like the golden little statues.
I like when they do it. I like when they do that.
Like, um, like the frog.
And what decade was that?
The 90s.
Bald guy sings?
Yes, he actually, the lead
singer. A lot of bald guys in the 90s singer.
The lead singer actually...
Michael Stipe, live.
True.
They looked very similar.
The lead singer actually went on to become like a...
I did.
Mm-hmm.
But he became a kid's song performance.
Was that a Slingblade prefer?
He said Slinger, man.
Goofy!
All right?
Fresh fried taters.
Okay?
I'm quick with it.
I want to just say
that's got to be the only Slingblade reference ever made
in the last five years.
Ten, yeah, five years for sure.
Slingblade was such a moment.
Slingblade is a great film.
I know, but like no one talks about slingblade.
They need to.
I think about it absolutely 100%.
Every time you get friends every five years.
I see Billy Bob Thornton.
Oh, yeah.
One hundred percent of the time.
Every time I see him, I think of him.
Oh, yeah.
How fat he was in Slingblade.
Well, he wasn't that fat.
That's what you think about?
He wasn't fat.
He was fat.
Yeah, he was fat.
for that. He's not that fat. He's just...
Hefty. No, no, no. He was a thick bitch.
Not really, dude.
You don't think about Billy Bob Thornton
on the red carpet saying
we fucked and they'll get on the car the way here?
That's the one. Yes, exactly.
Because that is the clip that goes viral
every... But that's also
when I see him
doing that, I'm like, that guy right there
was Slingblade, who was
morbidly obese and Slingblade.
Wow. Gotcha, bitch. He wasn't.
He was hefty.
He was hefty in Tombstone.
In Tombstone, he was hefty.
Who was he in Tombstone?
He's the guy who gets slapped in the face by, I believe, Kurt Russell?
That's Billy Zane, man.
No.
Billy Zane is beautiful.
He plays the actor.
This is top tier.
This is important stuff, man.
You could look it up, but I have a few.
Look at that link.
I just fucking sense.
That's him when he won the Academy Award for Slingblade.
And look at those chins.
That's a...
Jowls.
He's got jowls.
Come on, man.
That's not that bad.
That's not, that's a normal human.
Pull up Billy Bob, Billy Bob Tombstone.
Hey, hey, Todd, find a fat photo of Billy Bob Tool.
He's never been fat.
He's literally only been fucking cool.
Have you seen his photos when he's in like his band?
Oh, hey, by the way, oh, so now you think fat isn't cool?
How dare you?
You're such a fattest.
I agree.
Thank you, Adam.
You know how I feel.
I know.
I remember in, what was it, Seattle?
Yeah, you fucking took me to town.
It was Oklahoma, all right?
And I fucking destroyed you.
Check the fucking chat.
Right now.
What do we got here?
You got a chunky looking...
Look at that.
BBT.
Tombstone.
Okay.
Is that actually him?
Yes.
That doesn't even look like him to me.
That looks like an actor who kind of looks like Billy Bob Thornton.
Hey, Blake, you are so dumb.
Okay, maybe.
That is Billy Bob Thornton.
And also...
Zora?
He's not that heavy.
I think you guys have a...
I think you have a really crazy slagely.
sliding scale.
Not obese, but he's got
jowls, and I believe Adam just said
neck. No, he's not obese, but he
looks, you know.
He became super thin.
Yeah, now he's like, rail
thin. When he's fucking Holly Berry
and Monsters Ball,
bony. How do you know this dude's whole
entire fucking... Well, he's fucking
Halliberry and Monsters Ball. That was...
I mean, I think of the one where he goes,
we fucked in the car on the way here,
and then I think about him hitting a doggy
with Holly Berry.
Oh, my God.
So, and Adam thinks of him going French fried tater.
I actually don't think about that movie at all.
That's a great film.
I think about it's the size of Texas, sir, from Armageddon.
That's him, too.
I think about the man who wasn't there, Coen Brothers movie.
I think about none of those things, I think about him going,
and being kind of fast.
I think about his band.
I think about him when he's in his rock band.
Name them, and his cool, like, bandana he wears?
I don't.
Is it the matchbox racers or something?
You got that, right?
You're literally a stalker.
No, it's Maxbox 20 is world famous.
It's the boxmasters.
Wait, do you think that's a double meaning?
For our little sex fiend?
For sure.
Boxmasters?
You dog.
You dog.
Let's just say he's playing the drums.
No, the bummer is, is I hear he's like, I hear he's not that cool.
Like, not that nice of a guy.
And that saddens me.
What do you want them to be for you?
I want him to be for me
If I were to work
With him
I would want to have a little
Relationship with Billy Bob
And talk about his obesity
And how he battled it
And how he overcame it
I want him to just be
The best he can be in a scene
And he keeps saying
God damn it Anders
Just fucking say the lines
Oh you want him to pivot you
Wow you do a good Billy Bob too
Dude he's truly obsessed with him
There's no way he wouldn't
If I corrected him
is like, Honders, he'd be like,
okay, all right, Anders.
And I'd go.
Fucking, no, I would like to see you go toe to toe.
Hey, remember in Toothstone when you were Billy Blob?
Then we're fighting.
Wait a second.
Hold on, I was looking at it.
Yes, points.
Very good.
Billy Blob Thorpe.
Tum, okay.
A unit of weight.
It doesn't stop.
I like that.
It doesn't stop.
I like that.
And Ders just said he didn't like doing the podcast.
a minute ago so and then he comes out firing on all cylinders very good five years later
and you're still cracking me up but hang on what's crazy is Adam wasn't even he said slinger and you just
said Billy Bob or some shit can't remember well that's a very front of that is very front of mind
movie to me I'm constantly thinking about it because one of my greatest heroes is in that movie
of course. John Ritter is
excellent in the film.
Yeah, yeah.
Crushes. Has a,
not a Mohawk, but like a
strange buzz cut? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But he's, is it set in
the past or is it set in just a different
state?
Well, because he has an old school.
Is it said in the past or South Dakota?
Well, the thing about John
Ritter's character is he's a
homosexual in a place in
where you're not supposed to be.
Yeah, and I can't remember if it's
because it's the past, or if it's just in a different part of the country.
I don't think it's the past.
I thought it was just in a state that, you know, that doesn't fly, my guy.
But also, Billy Bob is wearing like a prison outfit the whole movie that seems kind of old school as well.
I would like to give a shout out to Nebraska.
I've been to Nebraska twice in the last two weeks.
And, uh, oh, you were just talking about it.
I feel like it used to be a place that you wouldn't want to be, um,
gay.
I ran into so many gay people there now.
They're husk in the corn now.
Hell yeah, baby.
Yeah, they're husk.
Thank you, God.
Give him more points.
The guy's on fire.
He really is, man.
Five years.
Yes, points!
Slingley takes place in Arkansas in 1996, so yes,
the past.
Didn't that movie come out in 1996?
Yeah.
Half of the joke was that.
Oh, no.
Over his head.
Oh, I didn't know.
So wait a second.
You're saying Lincoln is just the gay capital of the Midwest now?
No, no, it wasn't Lincoln.
I was in, I mean, I was in both places, but yeah, I was just, I ran into quite a few gay people.
Move over Columbus, for sure.
That's awesome, inclusive.
And what I assume are some them days.
And when you run into these people, you stand strong or are you?
I don't even know if I need to stand strong in that case, but.
You absolutely do.
Oh, I do.
Oh, yeah.
I actually, are we still on?
I can't get into it.
But if we're still on, I can't get into it.
but you sure you sure do we're still on
we are still on we don't ever go off
go off king we're on for an hour
and then we don't talk to each other for a week
and so you're saying you're saying Omaha
Omaha is inclusive you're feeling the inclusion
yeah yeah I really did I really did
in a way that I don't remember
I don't remember in the 90s
when I was a kid it being a place where
it was free to be you could beat yourself
where like you would just run into a bunch of gay people
Again, you're running into these.
Shwing.
What was, like, how did you know these were gay people?
And what were they doing?
Were they at the football game?
No way.
Just stores, bars, bartenders, you know.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Sound about.
Yeah.
And I'm not, you know, you know, I didn't say, hey, I'm a gay guy, but.
They just ran into you.
There's some tells.
Sure.
What are your top, what are your top one tells that someone's gay?
Uh, dangly earring.
What?
No.
We'll do.
One or two?
Dangly earring.
Dangly earring.
I agree unless there's a feather on the dangle.
And then you fuck anything.
If you have a feather, you'll fuck whatever.
You're saying Kyrie Irving.
Yeah.
Kyrie Irving will fuck anything.
He's got a dangly earring.
Yeah.
For a feather.
Who's, yeah.
Probably him and Mr. T.
Who else has a feather earring?
But I feel like athletes don't count because they make, they made too much money too quickly and they take insane swings.
Okay.
Just absolute bizarre swings
Like fashion swings
Yeah, fashion swings
Yeah, fashion
Well, and also you have to
You have to spend your money somewhere
Who do you think is dressing these people at them?
Yeah, yeah, it makes sense, make sense
Oh, I didn't, you guys think it's gay people
Okay, I was gonna say, what the?
Oh, you walked us into that.
Just their best, I was going to say their best friends, but okay.
Okay, dokey-dokey.
Styleist.
Wow, you're really walking us into traps, man.
Yeah, yikes.
Didn't realize.
Hitch-machi, muchy.
Blake, what's your number one tell
that someone's probably a gay person.
I love podcasting.
Let's make some headlines.
For me, it's if there's like fucking a guy.
That's number one for me.
Well, that would be number one.
I don't see that.
I don't see that a lot.
I did.
Number two is dangly.
I was going into Not Scary Farm one time.
Me and Chloe was wouldn't.
Actually, we were meeting Blake and his ex-wife.
It was that same night.
Blake.
Okay.
We were going in and Chloe was meeting your wife or ex-wife for the first time and she was a little nervous.
And we were going in and I look over and there's two lines to get into the parking area.
And we're in one line.
This car right next to us was obviously in the other line.
I look over.
One man is bent over the dash and the guy who was driving the car was fingering his asshole.
Wow, dude.
blasting it.
He might have sat on something, lost something.
Yeah, was he, maybe something was stuck.
Yeah, I don't know if he lost his keys in there or what was up his ass,
but it certainly seemed like it was leaning gay.
It was leaning gay.
You can always.
I can see that.
Yeah, you can assume things, but you never draw a total line in the scene.
Yeah, you don't know.
There's a strong, strong probability, but I don't.
Strong probability.
Do you guys like what?
When there's somebody who you just don't know.
I don't know.
This is five-year stuff, man.
This is heady five-year stuff.
What are you asking, brother?
I might have to listen to this one back.
Hold on.
What are we?
What are we?
I'm going to start jotting down some notes.
I love Blake has glasses without frames that he uses for dress-up on Zooms.
You meet somebody and they have the equivalent of what you would.
call a feather earring.
And so you are going, all right,
okay. Yeah. So you're saying
like when you meet somebody and you go like, what's
this person's story? Right. So Blake
with those glasses right now. Yes.
Yeah. If we didn't know Blake and
we just met him and you're
like, oh, you're talking to him and you're like
huh. Right. Those glasses
don't have frames
in them. Or glasses, rather.
A lot of what you guys are talking about
are fashion choices. And is that
so they can be fucked?
through my eye
so you can take a dick straight to the eye?
Well, I never thought of that, but...
Yeah, I mean, yeah, I think what we're talking about here,
and I don't want to put words or anything in your mouth on yours.
Uh-huh.
Okay, wait a minute.
Why are we here, then?
Yes, points!
What are we even doing?
You're talking fashion.
You're talking fashion choices.
No, I'm talking vibe, and then...
But then they say something like,
my girlfriend or my wife or my kids,
and you go,
mm-hmm.
Yeah, I think that happens a lot, a lot, a lot.
Yeah.
I think that happens a lot.
I think it's just interesting because in my mind, I go, okay,
but in the other back of my mind, I go,
the deep, not right.
We're all, hey, man, as soon as you're out, great.
It's fine.
Yeah, we don't care.
But like, come up.
But also I think sometimes, you know, they,
I mean, that's kind of best case scenario for these guys, right?
if they swing both ways, they get a wife.
It's easier to walk through society if you're like,
yeah, my wife and, you know, some people are homophobic or whatever.
You can always be like, hey, I got a wife.
But then these wives are cool.
If they know, if they know, we just fucked.
They know they're gay.
And then they'll probably let you go fuck dudes.
It's kind of the best of both worlds.
Don gay!
But I'm also like, do they know?
Or are they both like?
No, no, no.
They're figuring it out.
They don't.
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know, man.
I don't know.
Blake, how's it work for you?
I feel like I just try to live my truth, man.
Yeah.
Just try to live my truth.
Behind prescriptionless glasses.
What does that mean?
Yeah, behind those glasses with without actual, what do they call it?
Just the glasses, right?
What do they call the lenses?
Lenses.
Lenses?
No, the frames.
Lenses and frames.
The frames are what you're wearing.
The frames.
By focus.
The lenses are what's not in there.
Because the lenses are scratched.
I have, you know, I have these by my side.
just in case I need to do some prop comedy.
But, yeah, again, these are Teddy's old glasses from a long time ago.
Vintage.
I think I remember those.
Super scratched.
Yeah, they're very scratched.
And then was it hard to get the lenses out or did you have to, like, crush them?
No, they pop right out.
They pop right out.
And you kept those.
Yeah, I keep everything.
Because it's like keeping a little piece of teddy around.
I keep everything.
That's true.
That's right.
I keep everything.
I'm not a hoarder, though.
Hmm.
Okay.
We'll let that lay right there.
All I know is what I've been told, and that's a half-truth is a whole lie.
For almost a decade, the murder of an 18-year-old girl from a small town in Graves County, Kentucky, went unsolved.
Until a local homemaker, a journalist, and a handful of girls came forward with a
story. I'm telling you, we know Quincy Kilder, we know. A story that law enforcement used to
convict six people, and that got the citizen investigator on national TV. Through sheer persistence
and nerve, this Kentucky housewife helped give justice to Jessica Curran. My name is Maggie Freeling.
I'm a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, producer, and I wouldn't be here if the truth were that easy to find.
I did not know her and I did not kill her
Or rape or burn or any of that other stuff that y'all said it
They literally made me say that I took a match
And struck and threw it on her
They made me say that I poured gas on her

Jenna World.
Jenna Jamison, Vivid Video, and The Valley
is a new podcast about the history
of the adult film industry.
I'm Molly Lambert,
host of Heidi World, The Heidi Fly Story,
and I'll be your tour guide on a wild ride
through adult films.
We get paid more than the men.
We call the shots.
In what way is that degrading?
That's us taking hold of our life.
In the 1990s, actress Jenna Jameson crossed over into mainstream culture,
redefined stardom, then left it all behind.
I'm a powerful woman.
I think that's intimidating to a man.
With a cast of hundreds of actors and comedians playing key figures,
we'll take a look at how adult films became legal in the 70s,
hugely profitable in the 80s and 90s,
and fell off a financial cliff in the 2000s.
Listen to Geno World on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
And we're back.
I actually had a quote.
Nice to do.
It's going to take me a while to find.
That was about hoarding that I wanted to send you guys because you guys have accused me of being a hoarder.
Well, you're a Uber collector.
You're not a hoarder where you keep like pizza boxes and trash around.
There we go.
But you do keep everything.
which an ex-girlfriend called me a hoarder actually i'm a collector and i archive and that spoke to me i do
collect i have my comic book collection right and i have my figurines and then i archive things that i think
are important to not only myself but maybe maybe that later in life you guys would be like
stoked on uh yes and i will say sometimes you'll bust out a t-shirt like from our lives or something
from Game Overman or workaholics or even older than that, that I'll be like, oh, shit.
Yeah, I should have saved that shirt.
That was awesome.
Great job, Blake.
Thank you.
But, you know, it's a lot of work for maybe the three times that's happened in my life.
You don't have to do that for us.
I know.
It's my burden.
But when I see it light up for the, you know, when you see the t-shirt.
For just for that moment?
For that moment.
Oh, shit.
Are those those dice we used to have at the house?
Fuck.
All right.
Cool.
I have to go.
My little heart smiles, and it makes it all worth it to me.
I love you, buddy.
I love you, buddy.
Hey, happy five years.
Happy five year anniversary to us.
What was happening five years ago?
Well, there's a global pandemic.
That's right.
And we got, what happened is we got so bored during the pandemic that we decided to do a podcast.
Yeah.
And then, uh, we just kept doing it.
We really did.
We just kept doing it for five years.
That seems kind of crazy.
I mean, it's kind of the, it's a, it's a good deal, you know?
Yeah, it's fun.
I get to catch up with my guys.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
When you listen, you know, when they drop these bests of when we, you know, we can't, we can't find time in the day to get one of these motherfuckers off.
Can't feed the hordes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Those best ofs.
There's some really funny.
Gold in them hills.
Oh, absolutely.
Do you listen to the best of?
That's actually the ones I like.
Are you archiving them?
Yeah, I like, I do like the best ofs.
Really?
I didn't listen to this last one, but I do like a best of.
Because, you know, you forget about those.
If you listen to a podcast that we just filmed a week or two ago, you're like, oh, I remember this whole damn thing.
Do you really?
Once it starts to go, I'm like, oh, yeah.
But then a best of, I don't remember a thing.
Right.
And then people kind of, they listen and they bring up stuff.
Like, there was one question where we never solved.
I was trying to figure out what singer from the 90s, he had a very specific, raspy voice.
We never answered the question to it.
People were like, is it this?
Tom Waits.
The answer was, I remember it was Richard Marks was the, was the, yeah, yeah.
I don't know that I haven't listened to the newest best of, but I guess that was a question we had left unanswered.
but it was Richard Marks.
Great head of hair.
Incredible.
Richard Marks.
I feel like we covered him, right?
Didn't we like go?
We talked about Richard Marks a lot maybe.
Well, maybe.
I believe it.
I feel Richard Marks, he was a good, like, roller skating music.
Like a couple skate when they'd say, it's a couple skate.
Right.
You're scanning the, you're scanning the floor.
You're like, where's my girl's, you know, Sarah Perings?
Sure.
Where's Shannon Toma out there?
Okay.
Where is that one specific person?
Where's Keegan neither, Deppie?
I got a roller skate right now.
And even if you're, like, holding hands and you both fall and you look at each other on the floor in that song still playing and you look into each other's eyes, you're like, we're never going to forget this.
And then your hands out there and then fucking Ryan Jonica's bitch ass comes to just inline skates directly over your fingers, dude.
What the fuck?
Well, where'd he get those cool rollerblades?
What is this guy's deal?
Those are sad, dude.
Damn, but he kind of, he kind of ruined the moment a little bit.
It is kind of that. It is kind of that.
Happy fifth anniversary.
You know what's funny?
Yeah.
To us, when they send the like, hey, what do you guys want to title this week's episode?
And I read the like seven suggestions or whatever.
I'm like, I don't know what these are pertaining to.
Oh, yeah.
No, I never quite remember.
Yeah.
They're like, zip pop.
made fun? And I'm like, what?
Well, because this is all just off
the top of the dome, man. We're just
freestyling, baby.
It is fun
when people ask, or like,
what's the point of your
podcast? What is the
idea, the theme, or whatever?
I'm like, it's called this is
important. I'm like, oh, do you have important
topics that you cover? I'm like, literally
it's just us talking about bullshit,
usually pretty nostalgic from our
childhood in the 90s. And they're
like, oh, that sounds fucking stupid.
And I'm like, yeah, I'm a dumbass.
That's right.
Yeah, my dentist asked me today because he's like, what, what are you doing later today?
And I'm like, I got a podcast.
He's like, well, oh, yeah, what do you guys talk about?
I'm like, don't listen.
Please don't listen.
Yeah, don't, please.
None of your business.
You have to be, have your fingers in my mouth.
I just, I don't even want, I don't even want you knowing what I'm talking about.
I had an older neighbor double down on it.
He goes, no, what's he called?
I go, this is important, but I don't think you'd enjoy it.
And he goes, well, I'll give it a shot.
and I go, honestly, don't.
Otherwise, it's just going to be, like, weird.
And he goes, I'm going to check it out.
I'm like, I wish you wouldn't.
I'm begging you.
So I push him over.
I steal his mail.
You're done.
He went missing.
I told you guys that my neighbor, they've since moved.
They sold the house, but because I think he listed in the podcast.
Okay.
The neighbor's kids, the neighbor was 96 years old.
He since passed away, R.I.P.
Wayland, he was the man.
Great name.
He passed away.
And his kids.
kids were, I think, in their 60s, and the one son was like...
Too much for you, Blake, 60s too much.
I'm going to listen to the podcast.
So I was like, I don't know, maybe not.
And then next time I saw him, he said, I listened to every episode.
And I'm like, what?
It's been 48 hours.
And he goes, I'm just the kind of...
I mean, it was like months and months.
But he was like, I'm the kind of guy that I have to start at the beginning of something.
So I started at the beginning and I listened to everyone.
And he was like, I actually loved it because I love what a friendship you guys have.
You can tell that you're best friends.
And I fucking cried.
And Adam, come on, sing, sing happy anniversary.
Happy anniversary.
I hope it's okay with Blake.
I had the 60-year-old people here.
By the way, he's 60.
He's not like 90.
He doesn't sound like that.
but happy anniversary to you.
Damn.
Yeah.
I mean, yeah, it is the,
I mean,
it was the funniest podcast of 2023.
Three.
Yeah,
right.
According to IHeart Radio Awards,
which is,
it's kind of the one of the biggest awards
for podcasting.
Besides,
now it's going to be the Golden Globes.
Oh, my God.
What does that mean?
Oh, my God.
They're going to give podcast awards.
Oh, they are?
Yeah.
Oh, this is news to me.
Yeah, golden globes.
And I guess,
Dust off the,
They, uh, I guess Theo Vaughn is, uh, is like the front, you're going to be a frontrunner.
And then he straight up said like, I don't, I don't want it.
I don't know.
Okay.
Well, easy for her to say.
I mean, don't you just accept, don't you like, because I get it.
It's like, who gives a fuck?
But don't you accept it for everyone who like works for you and with you and like puts their
time and effort into it to go?
Like, I'm here to represent that.
I mean, we, we for sure would go.
we'd be stoked.
Yeah, and I'd be like, I don't need anyone.
Well, yeah, that would be cool.
But generally, it doesn't matter.
Like, an award is, you know, it is what it is.
You don't, that's not why you do it is to be awarded, right?
Speak for yourself.
What?
Why you do it?
Why you do it?
Like, any form of, I suppose, if art.
So what I'm saying is when you are awarded, it is a recognition of what you have been part of creating.
And so I'm saying they don't want his.
whoever to show up they want him to show up
and if he shows up it can shine
on all these producers
who tell their parents what they do
and the parents are like okay
it gives them a moment to be like
hey I saw him say your name on the golden clothes
that is very cool through these five years
there's no way we could do it without
Anna and Todd and of course
Isaac has been so fundamental
integral integral integral I like to say
seminal and integral
seminal yeah and that one time he gave us the list
of one thing to talk about which was
just the cruise.
He was like, I'm going to give you a list.
And then...
Well, trash pandas.
And then...
Is that real?
You remembered the list?
Yeah.
It's amazing.
Yeah, of course.
He gave us a list.
He told me before the podcast,
I'm going to give you a list of like,
just things to talk about to bring up.
And I'm like, okay, yeah.
And he's like, I'm just going to be more involved on the podcast front.
And I'm like, yeah, hell yeah.
What happened?
What do you think happened?
We made fun of him.
And he got his feelings hurt.
He gave us a list and the list was one...
one thing long
and it was just
talk about the cruise
so I'd like to bring up
the cruise
yeah absolutely
the cruise

It's going to be an absolute banger.
And we've got some very special guests that we're locking in right now.
So please, please, please buy your tickets.
No hints.
No hints about who the guest is.
No, absolutely not.
It's Vegas.
It's a city of mystery.
Will it be?
Will I am?
Will I am?
Will it, will Bruno Mars come pay off some of,
of his debts? Will it be Bruce Willis? Does Bruno Mars owe us a favor?
Bruno Mars.
That's going to pay out some of his debts. That would be cool.
Oh, someone tried to come at me about the, um, we had a podcast where we talked about
who wants to be a billionaire, and I guess it's Bruno Mars. And they were like, it's fucking
Bruno Mars, not the guy who got arrested with his mom for whatever. I'm like, no, that was
the Sean Kingston debate. Right. I said that like, it's Sean Kingston did the, who wants to be a
billionaire. And they were like, it's. What is who wants to be a billionaire?
I don't know beautiful girl I don't know but these people came at me like hard being like yo it's actually Bruno Mars and I'm like awesome you know that I don't and we're back we don't know much it is it is a crazy how people will retain information from the podcast I was just back in Omaha I do I go on a hunt with family and friends yes once a year and we just did it there's no drama if you remember last year there was a lot of drama
That's great.
We almost weren't invited back.
This year, we squash the beef, and we are back, and we are back killing birds, which is so fun.
I hate birds.
Dude.
Yeah, he's got a history.
It is weird to think, like, I eat a ton of birds.
And you don't think about that, really, when you're looking at these birds.
Murder them.
They're so delicious.
They nourish me.
They nourish me.
If you want to come sometimes, Blake, one year.
I always want to.
I'm going to come.
Feel free.
The invite is wide open.
but for the both of you, if you want to go hunting.
Okay, okay.
That sounds great.
Yeah.
Can I smoke weed inside?
Absolutely.
Let's bon rip, bro.
God, no.
Dude, it's just for the pod.
It's just for the pod.
Let's fucking dabbing up, brother.
Oh, God.
But we just went and we go to this steakhouse every year, the night before we leave.
We fly into Omaha.
We stare there the night before so we could leave super early in the morning and make the two-hour drive to the cabin.
Right.
So the night before.
we go to this steakhouse, the drover,
which is a famous steakhouse in Omaha.
It's so good.
Whiskey marinated.
Ooh.
Whiskey marinated.
Mommy.
And they've got a sick salad bar set up.
Okay.
And you know Daddy loves a salad bar.
Of course.
All you can eat?
Oh, yeah.
Your boobs are huge.
I love that.
You could keep going back to the salad bar, baby.
It's all on ice.
It's fantastic.
I can't stop eating.
And so I'm there.
And they're grilling the steaks behind, like a partition,
behind the salad bar and this guy goes
what's up Adam? And I'm like oh shit hey man
how's it going you know and uh and he goes
you're here for the hunt right
and I go uh yeah and he goes
you hear with uh Mikey and your dad
yep and I go uh uh uh yeah yeah
yeah actually I am and he's like that's sick
yeah you said on the podcast that you always roll through
with Mikey and your dad yeah and I'm like
fuck yeah dude
Look, look, and I think the person you're talking about who retained all this is listening right now.
Yeah.
And I just want you to be careful about how you, the tone, I guess the tone.
I'm just a little worried about the tone.
That shit's important.
No, no, I love that.
It was fucking awesome.
And what I'll call this guy's passion.
Yeah.
About the details.
Yes.
It did throw me for a second that this guy knew my dad and Mikey.
Of course.
Sure.
Of course.
Passionate man.
It threw me.
That being said.
loved that it happened.
You love being thrown.
And I loved the Drover, big shout out.
I made their Instagram, so you know it's real.
Wait, is that, what is, uh, the drover's Instagram?
I think it's just the drover.
Blake, Blake, stop.
I want to go on the drover right now.
Are you, how old?
Are you 60?
They gave me a hat.
I wish I was wearing it.
No, it's Drover Steakhouse.
Of course it wasn't at the drover.
You can't, you can't get that.
What do you mean?
What?
Drover Steakhouse.
Yeah, okay.
Yeah, you fucking kick-out.
And you did.
Look at this.
I mean, yeah, look at there.
That's massive.
Look at that.
Is that the Mikey?
That is.
That's the Mikey.
Dude, you guys look great, by the way.
Thank you.
Oh, you got Drover hats?
Oh, yeah.
You got merged out?
What is the vibe of the Drover?
Sounds fancy.
Hey, by the way, look, it's not.
That's their mascot.
Just a guy.
Is a Drover like a cattle drover?
It's just a guy frowning so hard.
He doesn't look happy to be there at all.
I love it.
It's the best mascot.
Just a fucking guy who's very unhappy.
Charles Bronson-looking motherfucker.
He's so tired from working.
Like, he can't even smile.
It's a nice steakhouse, but it's not, you don't have to be, like, dressed up.
People have hats on and people are, you know, car heart jackets and shit.
Yeah, yeah.
You know when you eat somewhere where, like, you go for breakfast and everybody's there in their
camo in the morning before the hunt?
Yeah.
But this is a nighttime steakhouse.
No, it's a nice, it's a nice steakhouse.
Got it.
It looks delicious.
It is.
And next time you guys are back in Omaha.
Is Dover a past 10 situation where it's like you're somebody who just drove cattle all day?
Like they didn't know driver.
I don't know what the drove.
I don't know what that means.
I truly don't.
I'm guessing it's a cattle drover.
If this was who wants to be a man.
Cattle driver, and then they retired to open a restaurant.
And he was like, honey, I'm a drover.
And she's like, you drove her crazy, honey.
Hey, can you get out?
Look there and get the cattle.
No, I'm a drover now.
I don't drive no-mo.
Yeah, those days are drover.
Now I'm cooking steaks and frowning my ass off.
A drover is a person who herds or drives livestock, such as cattle or sheep, over long distances, typically to market.
Okay, so now we know.
Somebody's been on here five years.
Look at that.
Celebrity Jeopardy pays off again.
And are you a tenderloin guy?
Are you like a strip?
Are you a...
I'm a herboy...
I'm a rib-eye.
for the most part.
I might do a New York strip.
I ain't afraid of it, you know.
And they're showing some lobster and some crab.
You've got to get that Omaha lobster.
Where are they getting that from?
Where are you pulling that out from?
If I had to guess the Missouri River.
Okay, that's that good old Missouri lobster.
Things, you're able to get stuff across the country.
FedEx, a flash, and a flash.
So it's fresh.
It's very good.
Maybe it increases the price a little bit.
No, this is Omaha.
Things aren't increased.
I doubt it, yeah.
Well, I just know when you buy stuff like in Alaska, it's very pricey because it takes a lot to get stuff out.
You got another market.
Blake, shut the fuck up.
Okay, this is Omaha.
Things are great.
Things are fucking great, okay.
Alaska's a different situation.
They don't have any taxes up there.
Okay.
It comes out to wash.
Okay.
Oh, God.
Okay, man.
Siri's talking to me now.
God damn it.
You just told your family to shut the fuck up.
I'm so sorry.
I'm alerting the police.
I'm so sorry.
It's a volume control.
That's just that.
It's my bad thing.
I wasn't trying to dis Omaha or Nebraska or Lincoln, any of that.
I would say this was maybe my best trip back to Omaha.
Like, we stayed downtown.
It was a beautiful day.
Like the old market in downtown Omaha.
It was just lively.
People are out walking.
There's bars.
There's restaurants.
That's like the city center.
Yeah.
We've been there, right?
where the Italian restaurant is.
That's so delicious.
Yeah.
We were there.
It was way too cold.
Oh, yeah.
I love that place.
Why am I blanking on it?
The old spaghetti.
The meatball factory?
Spaghetti factory.
Yeah.
Spaghetti works.
Yes.
The best.
The best.
The old spaghetti works.
Where I ordered terribly, of course.
I got some like pepper pepper something and it was too many peppers.
I should have just gone with the spaghetti.
Yeah.
That's a little bit of a tourist.
Yeah, remember how we've, we've said that you don't order what you should at the place.
I'm a terrible order.
Yeah, it's my bad.
Blake, well, I know what it is.
Against the grain.
No, because he doesn't actually want to eat food.
He doesn't actually want to eat it.
Here we go again.
Here's what he does.
We go to a restaurant.
It's a burger place, famous for burgers.
Love burgers.
Known for their burgers.
Oh, a side of asparagus.
I order a burger.
Anders orders a burger.
And Blake goes,
maybe what about their
flash fried
asparagus burger
and you're like
huh
sounds kind of hitters
yeah
that's what you would say
that sounds kind of hitters
I guess I'll order that
and then you get it and you're like
oh mine's horrible
I have a bite
yeah well you guys don't finish your meals
yeah and then and then you'll be like
can I can I get a bite of yours
and you're like
I don't finish fuck I don't I don't
I don't know. I mean. I can vulture your guys' stuff if you don't finish yours.
But we finish ours. Good luck. I get a cup of chili on the side, playboy.
Dude, I'm basically the Billy Bob Thornton of our group battling obesity every day until I get way too skinny here in the future.
Right, right. Well, I'm getting better at it. Once I get on my GPL ones or whatever.
We got to get it. What's the GPL one?
That's Wagovi and all that.
The Wagovi, yeah.
Wait, sorry.
Have we talked about this?
What's Wagovi?
Did we talk about this?
Blake, has we, I don't, I feel like...
I know the macros.
No, no, no, no, no.
It's the number one brand.
I can't even remember.
It's Osempic.
It's Ozempic, bro.
Okay, okay, okay, yes.
Which...
Yeah, we should all get on it.
I would like to see how skinny Blake gets.
By the way, I do love the idea of us being like,
have you heard of it?
Yeah.
I mean, I've, are you on it?
Are you on it?
If you're on it, I'm on it, but are you on it?
No, there's no shame in the game, right?
There actually is.
There's a lot of shame in the game.
Because why?
Because why?
I don't know.
I don't think there should be, but I think a lot of people don't talk about it.
They just say, yeah, I went to my doctor and they said I should stop doing all these things,
and I did wink, wink, and I lost 40 pounds and 30 days.
This is the only shame I see in any of these games.
As far as, like, if you're getting like any sort of Botox or Zempic or your changes, there's no shame in it.
whatever the fuck you want.
If it's really expensive,
go off.
Okay, maybe it's like, yo.
Yes, cream.
Like, chill, you're spending so much money on this stuff.
It seems a little unimportant because you're beautiful the way you are.
You know what I mean?
But also, what is your point?
Yeah.
If it's expensive, you shouldn't do it.
Even if you're wildly rich, it's all relative.
That's where I would see the shame where you're like, wait, we're just like, wait,
how much money do you spend on the way you look?
Yeah, but if you have money.
if you're a billionaire, then money doesn't matter. Yeah, yeah. I could see shame in that.
If you were like someone who like shouldn't be spending that much money on that kind of stuff,
that seems like maybe a shameful act to me. So to you, it's about money. If you can't afford food
for your children, yes. But you can inject yourself with skinny serum. You might be a redneck.
Yeah. If you pay to get some way govi, though, you're not eating and then your kids can eat.
Well, you can regovi your kids.
All I know is what I've been told, and that's a half-truth is a whole lie.
For almost a decade, the murder of an 18-year-old girl from a small town in Graves County, Kentucky, went unsolved, until a local homemaker, a journalist, and a handful of girls, came forward with a story.
I'm telling you, we know Quincy.
killed her. We know. A story that law enforcement used to convict six people, and that got the
citizen investigator on national TV. Through sheer persistence and nerve, this Kentucky housewife
helped give justice to Jessica Curran. My name is Maggie Freeling. I'm a Pulitzer Prize-winning
journalist, producer, and I wouldn't be here if the truth were that easy to find.
I did not know her and I did not kill her. Or raid for burn.
or any of that other stuff that y'all said it.
They literally made me say that I took a match
and struck and threw it on her.
They made me say that I poured gas on her.

Woo-hoo!
Can you believe it has been almost 20 years?
That's not even possible.
Well, you're the only one that looks that much different.
I look exactly the same.

Icons, each and every one.
All of a sudden, like, someone, like, comes running up to me, and it's Salma Hayek.
And she's like, you are my ugly bitchy.
And I was like, what is she even talking about?

Welcome to Decoding Women's Health.
I'm Dr. Elizabeth Pointer, chair of Women's Health and Gynecology at the Atria Health Institute in New York City.
On this show, I'll be talking to top researchers and top clinicians, asking them your burning questions and bringing that information about women's health and midlife directly to you.
A hundred percent of women go through menopause.
It can be such a struggle for our quality of life, but even if it's natural, why should we suffer through it?
The types of symptoms that people talk about is forgetting everything.
I never used to forget things.
They're concerned that, one, they have dementia, and the other one is, do I have ADHD?
There is unprecedented promise with regard to cannabis and cannabinoids, to sleep better,
to have less pain, to have better mood, and also to have better day-to-day life.
Listen to Decoding Women's Health with Dr. Elizabeth Pointer on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you're listening now.
I wonder if you can get, it's called GLP one.
If you can get a GLP one.
I'm waiting for the two.
And mix it with testosterone.
Now that's something that I would inject.
Hello.
Can we get, hey, all those pharmaceutical, those bro pharmaceutical reps listening.
Yeah.
Is there five years?
Can we brand something?
Can we do a double whammy where it's just the T mixed with the G, LP,
And get this going?
And it's just called Daddy's Milkshake.
Oh, Daddy's Milkshake.
I like that.
That's something I would slurp.
Because of diarrhea.
You know Daddy's looking to slurp.
Yeah, we want to slurp.
Comes full circle.
Let Daddy slurp on his milkshake.
Do you guys see the Instagram feed with the guys like, I stop people on the street or
in shape, but I ask them how they do it?
Yeah.
I don't.
And I love that there's so many older guys that are like, I work out five days a week.
also taking a ton of testosterone, and you go, all right, well, it's almost, not all,
but like, it's a lot of these older guys are like, I'm on testosterone, what do we, okay,
yeah, duh.
Your boobs are huge.
Any old guy that's actually very jacked is on testosterone.
Right.
Or they're Italian.
And there's no shame in that.
Or they're Italian males.
I feel there's less shame in testosterone than the Ozempic.
Well, maybe you would feel shame if your body doesn't naturally produce it.
You feel like less of a man.
a shame element for some men.
Adam and I actually don't
have that problem. Some men are shamed publicly.
Some men are shamed at the Super Bowl
day after day after day.
And they just kind of have to eat it
and then they're told now
that there is no shame and that it's fine
to take. Well, Blake, there's no shame in
you having little
to no testosterone.
I don't think there was. I never thought
there was until the Super Bowl
where it seemed like I was kind of
to chastise about that is that well yeah sure that dude the the the shame came the shame i think
the funny part was how devastated you were when you when the numbers came in and yours was
the lowest no no no no no no because you know large margin i'm living a nightmare no this is fun
because it is a five-year anniversary and i kind of wanted to touch upon the you know our favorite
moments and you're saying there wasn't shame but hero after hero was brought on to stage with
Johnny, it was Joey Chesnut, Donovan McNabb, and you paraded and berated me in front of these people.
And it didn't feel good.
And we even went on-
Marated, castrated?
Even Flutie, Doug Flutie, who is pro-T, he does the Nuggenics commercials.
Of course.
Doug Flutie.
Did you say Nugentics?
It's Nugentics, right?
Okay, good.
I thought you said something else.
Okay.
They said eugenics commercials.
Different commercial.
I don't know what that is.
I don't even know where that is.
Okay.
But Nugenics, so he's...
Happy five years.
69, dudes!
So he does the Nugentics commercials, and he's pro, he's all about the tea.
So we're talking tea with Mr. Tee.
Yeah.
Sipping the tea with Mr. Tee.
But then we went on like Cam Newton's podcast, and you kind of paraded it out there.
And it was the way you were presenting it.
And I kind of recall you saying, like, who has the least amount of tea?
Who's like the biggest bitch of the group?
Like stuff like that.
No, no, no.
I was saying...
Do you think Cam Newton has more...
testosterone than us?
Well, yeah, absolutely.
Combined?
Well, I don't know, because I look at those hats and I go, that seems like a low team move.
Right.
Hot, hot, hot, hot.
Because it's your peacocking, so you're like saying like, hey, look at me.
Yeah.
And you think that that's an estrogen?
And I feel like that's what Blake's kind of doing with the hair.
This kind of brings us back to the start of the pod where you're saying, you know, you look at someone.
You're like, what's their story?
Uh-huh.
And are they closet?
it.
Right?
Yeah.
But no, I don't think that's the case.
So just so I can get the headline right here, you think Cam Newton's got a feather
earring?
I think he could rock one very easily.
That guy can rock anything.
And if you go, if you rewind the pod, I wouldn't assume anything about him because of that.
I would assume somebody pretty good quarterback.
Yeah.
Well, I don't assume anything about anyone.
Is he a hallfamer?
I've never made an assumption.
I don't know.
I don't know football that well.
He's great, but I think.
Dress is insane.
He's on first take a lot here lately.
I've been watching.
He wears like multiple vests, like three or four vests.
Yeah.
And then sweaters underneath it and then like a bow tie.
Yeah.
And then it was insane hat.
I'm like, what is happening?
Very shaggedy.
I mean, look, when you're worth $300 million or whatever, you're like, I'll take all four of those vests.
And I'll wear them all now.
I guess so.
You got to take swings.
You've got to take swings to make trends, to start trends, man.
Otherwise, is that what it's all about starting a trend?
Yeah, dude.
Don't you wish you started 6-7?
Yeah, man, it's killer.
Mine, I would like to start 5-8, 5-8, 5-8.
Good luck, good luck.
Yeah, you might.
Maybe.
5-8.
Have you guys got to the root of what 6-7 is?
I'm sure this is covered on it.
Yeah, it's a song, and then it was a kid.
Then it was like a kid saying it at some sports game.
that that got memeified or whatever.
Hey, guys in the comments, come at me.
I don't know, and if you know, way to go.
But I think it's that.
What's the rapper's name?
Trilla, Zilla, Scrilla, something like that.
You are so old.
I should not know these things.
And it's okay.
Happy five-year anniversary.
Two.
That's a little Sinatra sound there.
CII Nation, still strong,
holding strong, like they're at a sticks concert with their dad.
know it doesn't make sense the way
children use it. Sure. I love it.
I think it's cool. I think it's fun
that kids are just like, six, seven.
Six, seven. I like that they're doing their own
thing. Yeah. You know, it gives
you know, we did, you know, some
all kinds of dumb shit. We were
always like saying suck it. We were asking
everyone to suck our digs constantly.
But yeah, but that's, I mean, that's timeless.
That's not going out of style. Well, yeah, you
shouldn't do it to random strangers.
it seemed problematic.
Which you would.
You would.
I remember we would do it in the mall.
We would just walk around the mall
and just fucking go up to random people
and just say suck it and walk off.
You're like, man, that's just like a mom
with her two young children
that we just said suck it.
It's like a 13 year old.
And also half of the people doing it
don't realize how literal it is.
Yeah.
The message is very clear on suck it.
Because you're like, oh, things suck.
Like, that sucks.
And you're like, oh, suck it.
It's like,
You had no idea what we were saying,
but we were literally telling moms with small children
who had their hands full with bags
walking in and out of Sears to suck it.
Over and over and over.
And we would laugh and laugh
and not quite realize how fucking insane that is.
And in hindsight,
it makes us look even cooler.
Yeah, man.
You guys were renegades.
It makes us look cooler.
The fun house mirror of time, I tell you.
God damn, that was.
That's cool.
I remember getting...
Any takebacks, any apologies, any episland.
Wait.
Wait.
Adam, you want to kick it off?
It's time.
Yeah.
It's time.
Is it time?
This is a five year, man.
Can't we kind of extend it a little?
Well, I've got to go.
I've got a dinner I've got to make.
People to see.
I'm going to get massage therapy.
I remember getting in trouble real quick.
Do you have from nowhere to be, Blake?
Yeah, Blake is nowhere to be.
I have to carve pumpkins tonight.
I do have a very important date.
I cannot wait.
to carbon to some of these pumpkins.
But I did tell some
a teacher at my school in
elementary school, I said,
I told her to blow me.
You've told this story.
Because I had heard it in Ace Ventura.
Ace Ventura.
Yeah.
Okay.
I don't know if you told it on the pod.
Five-year anniversary.
It was also, that was one of my favorite
moments was telling you guys that
because I really needed to get that on my chest.
I like that.
Did you get in trouble?
I did get in trouble.
All right.
Any takebacks, any apologies?
any epic slams.
Shut up, bitch.
I have two of those moments.
And maybe since it's the fifth year anniversary,
maybe I've talked about this before,
but we can bring it back up.
But I called the teacher despicable,
like Daffy Duck style.
And I got like sent to the hallway.
See ya.
And then I had another one for like,
we were reading Romeo and Juliet.
And she was like, you know,
what are they doing as they're like meeting each other?
and she was looking for the word courting, I guess.
And I was like, you know, it's like before they hook up.
It's like the foreplay.
And she was like, hallway, called my fucking home, left a voicemail.
It was like, your son said the word foreplay.
I bolted home and deleted that fucking message so fast.
Nice.
I loved that.
That was such a solid.
Unreal.
Very shagodelic.
Yeah, I said in eighth grade science class, I was reading the last.
and said,
I was supposed to say organism,
but said orgasm.
And then I said that like three times.
By the way,
I didn't mean to do it.
It just came out because I think...
This has happened time and time again.
Yeah, I just said orgasm and then I got...
It was like,
Broidian slip.
Oh, she made me go on the hall
and she's like, you really expect me to believe
you meant to say,
you didn't mean to say orgasm.
Adam Devine, class clown.
Yeah, class clown.
And I'm like, I honestly did.
of the kid who's always like
oh mommy
yeah okay sure
uh-huh uh-huh gummy worm guy
and you gotta and adam you gotta see where she's coming from
who's constantly screaming at me outside of a sears
two years prior you to suck it you literally
just told my my niece to suck it your boobs are huge
yeah and she was like i'll give you an orgasm and you go hey what are there any
apologies takebacks from the last five years maybe something you guys want to
apologize for at all?
I'd stand by everything.
I just wish, you know, some people would come out to the Las Vegas, Nevada.
Come on out to Vegas.
I would love that show on November 20th.
It's going to be a blast.
I expect to have a lot of fun.
I might go a day early.
I might take the wife a day early.
Get a nice room and finally have sex with her again.
Nice, dude.
I'm really excited.
I love that for you guys.
Speaking of wives, just got a text
Apropos of, she doesn't know what we're talking about
Yeah, there's no, there's no bugs in there
She's at a track meet or something right now
She goes, OMG, because we're young
Just heard a kid say
Seisiette, ha ha
Oh, there we go.
It's international, bilingual.
Hot, hot, hot, hot. I like that.
How do you say it in German?
Sex, Sieben.
Seben, kind of cool.
And if you have a way to say six, seven in a language,
slide into Blake Anderson's DMs at uncle blazer.net.
Absolutely.
Did I tell you guys that my German teacher when I was in Lincoln for the football game,
some old guy comes up to me and it's a bunch of college kids at this bar, right?
So I'm surrounded by college kids.
And then the one old guy goes, ah, Adam, and he's pointing to his face.
And he's going, huh?
Yeah.
And I'm like, hey, man.
And he goes, remember me?
And I'm like, I do not.
I do not.
And I'm like, oh, yeah.
No, yeah.
Yeah.
No, yeah.
And he goes, uh, what is it?
And I'm like, no, uh, could you, uh, I'm sorry.
Did you sell me my charger?
Could you remind me?
No.
And then he was like, high school.
And I'm like, high school, high school.
You worked at the high school.
And he made me to step it out for like,
Janitor, you told to suck it.
Janitor, did I tell you to suck it?
And he made me step it off for two minutes.
And then he goes, Hare Seeger?
And I'm like, oh, yeah, okay, should have just led with, hey, it's Hare Seeger from high school.
Daddy, Daddy.
I also, I need to bring up before we bounce, my high school football team, it's one of the best in the nation.
Yes, Millard South Patriots.
Millard South Patriots, they are fucking dominated.
That's fucking cool.
too excited. I've been showing
Chloe, like, highlight videos for the past
week. Look at how strong these
kids are. Look at these boys.
They could lift me above their head. They've scored
280 points to
the opponent's 14.
They've only had two touchdowns scored on them
the whole season. What's the story?
Is it a star player
or something or what? Yeah, they have
something like 15 kids
that are going to D1
that have already committed to D1 schools.
Wow. They're
Starting quarterback is named Jet Tamala.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, this is all happening.
Yeah, this is, you guys won.
Shout out to Jackson Dart, by the way.
And he's, and he's 6.5, 230.
Sure.
That's the QB.
Yeah, and they're a star wide receiver is 6.7, 250.
6.7.
6.7.
Could you imagine?
Like, high school, dude.
Oh, yeah.
Beautiful.
I would slurp that guy.
Teams are, teams are saying it's not safe to play them
and are forfeiting games.
Yeah, that doesn't seem.
Right, because they don't want their players to get hurt.
What division are they?
They're like the top division in their state?
In state, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Because I know some of those littler division schools are like, um, what?
We're good.
We're good.
Yeah, there's 50 kids per grade here.
We have a class of 80 kids.
Yeah.
Oh, Patriots, man.
Yeah, it's pretty, it's pretty exciting.
And over the past few years, I've been here in Rumbling.
It's like, you're coming back for a game.
And I'm like, you should.
For high school?
And so are these boys staying?
in state, are you going? Are you knocking on
lockers and saying, hey, guys,
let's keep it in state. Well, that's
what I'm saying is all, they're all going, like, our
quarterbacks going to Alabama. I'm like,
Alabama. I think what it is
is we have a really great quarterback now
and he's a senior and he's going to go.
So he's not going to get a spot. So he's not going to get
a spot. Got it. Right.
Gosh. Alabama needs him.
Politics. Apparently. But
the list, on that
highlight video I posted,
there was like a list of
15 schools and none of them
are going to Nebraska. I'm like, what is
happening here? Well, Nebraska's
on a fucking run right now and shout out to the
University of Wisconsin's football team. They've gone
two weekends without scoring. Pretty cool.
I don't know if that's a record of some sort
but... Dungay! Very cool.
And a big shout-up to the Dodgers.
I've been to a lot of games
this postseason. I've been to
like four or four games this post-season.
I'm going to go to a game during the World Series.
I'm very excited about it. Were you at the one?
Were you at the one? No, I went to
the day before.
I could have went to the one.
The Showy Showy Show?
Yeah.
Where's Shohei Otani.
I don't know baseball, but I watched like a YouTube rundown of why that game was so insane.
And I was like, oh.
Yeah.
He won the game by himself.
Yeah.
It was truly unbelievable.
And he's been having a hard time this postseason.
So.
Yeah.
I think they're going to take it all.
Well, you know, I'll shout out the Seattle Mariners.
I'm really, I'm really sorry that they didn't make it to the World Series.
Me too.
I was, I was disappointed as well.
I was pulling for him.
but good for Toronto as well.
Only because I know a lot of Seattle Mariners fans.
Yeah, and they've never been to the World Series ever.
Oh, really?
They're the only team left.
Not even in the, what's his name, junior days?
Yeah, Ken Griffey.
No, no, never made it.
Never made it to the show, I guess, unless I'm completely wrong
and people jump down my throat.
And they will.
And with that said, you know, TIA Nation, five years later,
it feels like yesterday we started this thing,
but it also feels like a long time ago.
It does.
It's been very awesome.
It has been fun.
