We have Randy. Hi. Who is joining us today, who is... So happy to be here. He actually works for the NFL. I do.
Starting point is 00:01:32 And we have Tyler, who is in town from Houston, Texas. Oh, wow. He has a family. I get the most cheers. Why does Tyler get cheers? Why? Well, he flew in all the way from Texas. That's true.
Starting point is 00:01:42 He works on the Sean Salisbury Show. He sure did. He's on the Sean Salisbury Show. He sure did. Morning sports radio show in Houston, Texas. And we're here live at Morongo Casino. Yeah. And we're very excited to be here. We always love hanging out at Morongo. And apparently a couple of you guys already got here way early that I saw a photo.
Starting point is 00:02:01 Were you hanging out at the pool before? Yes. Yeah. How was that? It was perfect the pool before? Yes. Yeah. How was that? It was perfect. The weather was great. Yes. We got off of work and I was like, hey, how quick can I get out here?
Starting point is 00:02:11 Yes. And how much time can I have at the pool before we record? So I had about two hours at the pool before we were even here. Oh my God. That's amazing. Dude, it's a bar and there's a pool. What do you think I'm going to do? I'll jump right in.
Starting point is 00:02:23 I'm going to take my time getting out here. That's awesome. Hold on. So I'm driving with Randy the I'll jump right in. I'm going to take my time getting out here. That's awesome. Hold on. So I'm driving with Randy the whole time. This dude refuses to get in the carpool lane whatsoever. He does drive with a cool lady. Oh, I thought you were driving, Eric. No, no.
Starting point is 00:02:33 I drove with my fiance. We drove together. Oh, so it was Randy and Tyler. Why didn't you get in the carpool lane? I'm a safe driver, man. We get there when we get there. I'm a safe driver, man. We get there when we get there. I'm sorry. I'm not going to merge into the carpool unless I'm allowed to legally.
Starting point is 00:02:52 So how long did you wait? Like 90 miles? I can confirm. 77 miles from Downey to out here at Morongo. There was no opening in the carpool lane. I can confirm that he merged illegally into the carpooling several times. Oh, wow. It's okay. He works for the NFL. It doesn't count. We're very excited to have everybody here together.
Starting point is 00:03:11 I usually, you know, Randy, he doesn't work with us anymore on a daily basis. He's moved on to greener pastures. We have Tyler, who is in Houston. And I never, you know, we never really get any updates from Tyler too much. A man of mystery, always working.
Starting point is 00:03:28 He doesn't text us anymore. He's on a group chat. We get these little tidbits of what's happening in Houston. And we actually read a story this morning. Oh, no. That Houston is one of the number one places that people are moving to in America. Yes, I can actually confirm that. Now, do you see a difference in the time
Starting point is 00:03:45 that you've been there and the population is growing? A little bit, yes. There's a lot more houses being built in the suburbs. That's really easily or easy to tell. But the reason I know this for a fact is because my childhood best friend, his wife, his two kids, they moved there last year. One of my other best friends and his wife moved into my apartment complex about a month ago.
Starting point is 00:04:07 And one of my other best friends and her girlfriend are moving into a house in Houston in two days. Jeez. The city is so big. I learned this from Tyler. There are two airports in the same city. That's just... No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:04:21 Within the same city limit. And they're very close to one another. Yeah, and they're big airports, right? Yeah, they, no. Within the same city limit. They're very close to one another. Yeah, and they're big airports, right? Yeah, they're pretty decent-sized airports. And it's funny because when we book flights to get Tyler to come out here to Morongo, I always forget what airport we've got to use for him to come out. What airport is it? You've got to be really careful.
Starting point is 00:04:40 So the one I usually fly out of is Bush, which is IAH. You can very easily confuse it with Hobby, which uses H-O-U for Houston. How easily can you confuse that? Very easily, I found out. Okay. Why are you guys smiling when I'm asking about that? Okay, Menace, there's been some weird hidden story that we don't know about that they're in on. And Eric said that...
Starting point is 00:05:03 The breadcrumbs are there, man. Eric said... We've got to lead it. Just follow the trail. Eric said that the breadcrumbs are there man we gotta lead it and just follow the trail eric said that tyler pulled the most tyler move ever and let's not forget tyler's the same guy that went up the wrong mountain once we went no no i know i'm not justified that and we just brought up how there's two airports in the same city easily confused so what time did you get into los angeles tyler? This morning Where did you fly in from, Tyler? Dallas Wait, what?
Starting point is 00:05:29 So I drove to the wrong airport because I did not read my ticket correctly Idiot! Okay, so yesterday What time was your flight supposed to leave yesterday? 2.32 In the afternoon Yes Plenty of time to read your ticket
Starting point is 00:05:43 So you went to the wrong airport in Houston. Yes. And then what happened? Did you walk through the gate or did you? So I get to the ticket counter. I type in the code. Yeah. And I notice it's not working.
Starting point is 00:05:57 So the woman who's helping me, she looks at it and she's like, oh, you're at the wrong airport. Wait. And I was like. Wait, wait wait wait so you made it through tsa you made it no no i hadn't got it through tsa oh my god so this is that like the the that was gonna be weird yeah so i just look at my i have never felt my eyes get bigger my jaw hit the floor like the most oh my god i effed up okay so badly you remember me giggling you remember me yeah yeah earlier today i couldn't tell you and i was like dude when you hear this story so but tyler as a
Starting point is 00:06:32 responsible human being you gave yourself plenty of buffer time to drive to the other airport to get to your flight right so there was technically yes there was buffer time but there was one catch he drove to the wrong airport. No, no, no. There was that, yes. No, no, no. If I would have drove and parked directly in the airport parking lot,
Starting point is 00:06:52 I would have probably had just enough time to grab my car and drive to the other one. Okay. The problem is I parked at one of those parking spots that are off the airport grounds, and I shuttled to the airport so there wasn't going to be enough time for me to shut all of that grab it and then do it again it wasn't going to happen wait okay so no wait well there's one part we're forgetting about the story too oh no there's more
Starting point is 00:07:14 to the story there's a lot more well in the beginning of this story uh tyler booked his own flight bro i've been to houston yeah i've been been to Houston and he's like, oh, I went to the wrong Houston. I was like, oh, did you go to Hobby or George W? And he's like, uh, George W. The worst part about it too. So, continue. So you're at the airport. You realize that you're at the wrong airport. I realize I'm at the wrong
Starting point is 00:07:37 one. And she's like, okay, the ticket person can help you out. I'm like, okay. So I go to the girl or whatever and she says, don't worry. This happens all the time. I'm like, what does that mean? And I asked her, I'm like okay so i go to the girl or whatever and she says don't worry this happens all the time like what does that mean yeah and i asked her i'm like okay now i'm curious how often does this happen at least seven or eight times a day no way are you serious yeah for people that are out of town but think about how many people go through that airport yeah yeah seven times i do this i've been there yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:08:06 so it's a massive airport so what happens is and she says okay you're not gonna have enough time to catch your flight at the other airport i'm saying okay cool she'll just rebook you in your straight right yeah kind of so because i'm at a completely different airport i can't necessarily be rebooked i can but i'm on a standby list okay so I can't necessarily be rebooked. I can, but I'm on a standby list. Okay. So I got to the airport about 1230. I did not leave Houston until about six. At night?
Starting point is 00:08:33 At night. Okay, perfect. Then direct flight straight to California. No. Oh. When I booked the flight, I had a connection through Dallas. North. Okay, but I mean dallas is really quick
Starting point is 00:08:46 that has to be like an hour it is so we got into dallas at eight o'clock there was one flight for l.a uh-huh and i did not get on it why didn't you get on the flight i was on the standby list it was booked it was completely full oh my god so you hung out in dallas it's eight o'clock at night you missed your flight god you're a dumbass what happens now uh we spent the night at the dallas airport we meaning me and my conscience who now realizes that i'm an idiot wait so you just slept on a random chair yeah okay but i didn't even sleep on a random chair i slept on the floor so he called us he called us and uh the first part that that's awful is he's talking to us and making it feel like it's a normal thing like i hate it when this happens they're like it doesn't happen but then but then
Starting point is 00:09:32 eric asked him like okay so who are you with and it's like it's just me and two janitors there's like two custodians mopping the floor and me speaking okay so you missed that flight and then you know what do you do so is the ticket booth even open so i got there and i didn't technically miss the flight like i got there before the flight left the problem was there's no more standbys there's no more room it's a full flight so i asked him okay what do i do now he said well we booked you for the second flight the next morning we put you on standby for the first flight out to LA. And I said, okay.
Starting point is 00:10:07 But he's like, you're for sure out tomorrow morning. And I'm like, okay, so what do I do now? Well, you can either go get a hotel or you can spend the night here. I'm like, well,
Starting point is 00:10:14 spend the night here then. Dude, that's something that I've always wanted. You always hear somebody's like, oh, a travel nightmare. I've been, you know,
Starting point is 00:10:20 I can't get on a fly. I can't get on a plane. And then I had to spend the night at the airport and you're like what does that mean yeah and you always and like and tyler from what tyler painted it doesn't mean much no it doesn't i you know you know you know me i've been to many airports and i see those people that are just like laid out on the floor oh yeah it's all times of the day but usually it's because of some system crashes or some massive outage. Yeah, or the flight got canceled.
Starting point is 00:10:46 This was self-inflicted. Not on their own doing. Most of the things that happen to Tyler are self-inflicted. This is true. Have you not met him? Have you not heard
Starting point is 00:10:54 of all the other stories? That's why when I'm telling you, when you guys talked to me earlier today. You were so giddy. I told you when you're like, oh, you know a story. Has anybody heard from Tyler?
Starting point is 00:11:03 And Matt's like, I think he's landing today. And Brett's like, no, he posted a photo at the airport yesterday. And I go, oh, that's weird. And I'm you're like, Oh, you know, a story. Has anybody heard from Tyler? And, and, and man's like, I think he's landing today. And Brett's like, no, he posted a photo at the airport yesterday. And I go, Oh, that's weird.
Starting point is 00:11:09 And they're like, Oh my God. Okay. In my mind, I know everything that's happened. I'm like, you have no idea. And I'm like,
Starting point is 00:11:14 I've been sworn to secrecy. He's like, you don't say anything, Eric. I'm like, I won't. We told him. I may have told you guys.
Starting point is 00:11:18 No, you should poke around a little bit. I'm happy though, that you saved it for the pod. We said we wouldn't say anything. However, Eric made a really good observation. He texted me about this.
Starting point is 00:11:26 He noticed that not only did Tyler delete his Instagram story photos, he also turned off his location so nobody could see him. All of a sudden, that ask me anything because I'm at the airport and have time to kill is gone. And his location is gone. I was worried he didn't answer any questions. Because I'm like, this is not good. He answers like a thousand dumb questions about movies.
Starting point is 00:11:45 He's probably like, oh, and it's, you know, took a lot of time to plan for me to come out here. And I totally screwed it up. Okay. So you have a standby on the first flight out. And then you have a guaranteed seat on the second flight. So what happened? I was able to get on the first flight. Oh, sweet. Which is cool.
Starting point is 00:12:06 So I landed at LAX at about 7.30 this morning. On the past 36 hours, I am running on about an hour 30 of sleep. I admit it. So he didn't sleep at all at the airport, from what he told me. Why? I don't know. Maybe an hour.
Starting point is 00:12:22 What's the distance? Dallas to LA is what? How long is the flight, Tyler? Three and a half hours. Okay. So he could have taken a three and a half hour nap. What do you think he did? Don't answer. What do you think he did?
Starting point is 00:12:32 Oh, he went to a bar. No, no, no. On the plane. On the plane. You get on the plane. You've been up in Dallas. Oh, you've been up. A travel nightmare.
Starting point is 00:12:39 Okay. Real quick. Real quick. May I add, I feel bad for the person I had to sit next to him. We were talking about that. Toiletry's nowhere near him. Slept overnight in the airport. What seat did you have, Tyler?
Starting point is 00:12:54 Oh, I had the middle seat. All the way in the back. Thoughts and prayers for those two people. What do you think he did on the flight? Okay, so he could have sat back a little bit, napped. I could not do that. Got some rest in. He should have been exhausted. He should have slept. Dennis, what do you think he did on the flight? Okay, so he could have sat back a little bit, napped. Yeah. I could not do that. Got some rest in.
Starting point is 00:13:09 He should have been exhausted. He should have slept. Yeah, yeah. He probably paid for internet and he was on his phone the whole time. He watched Jurassic Park. I didn't pay for the internet. Instead of sleeping. But the reason I couldn't really sleep, my one seat, and I was the only standby that got on the plane.
Starting point is 00:13:27 My one seat was in the very back. You can't recline at all. Right in front of the restrooms? No, right next to me is the wall for the bathroom. Tyler was that last guy on the plane that everybody watches walk down the road. And everybody's like, don't sit by me. Don't sit by me. Yeah, don't do it. Don't sit by me.
Starting point is 00:13:43 Don't do it. So that's why i offered to drive him because there's no way this guy's gonna make it he's gonna die and so we stopped at a gas station to get energy drinks he drank two full-size monsters in less than 15 minutes and i guarantee i guarantee at some point tonight i'm gonna look over at him and he's gonna have an effing vodka with a red bull can upside in it of course of course everything he drinks has an upside down can and some color in it we're very happy that you made it here with us today it was quite a journey
Starting point is 00:14:09 i'm not gonna lie part of me is sitting in the houston airport freaking out like if i don't get there which airport hobby or george w george so okay um you're gonna hang out with your family for another day here oh yeah, so I leave Monday. In the LA area. Awesome. Two days, yeah. Some time to hang out. You know which airports you need to leave from and to land to, right?
Starting point is 00:14:32 I know it's not Burbank. Actually. Are you sure? So he tells me this on the drive here. When he landed in Dallas, he realized that his return flight is the correct airport. Is the correct airport. So where's his car? Exactly.
Starting point is 00:14:46 So Tyler, explain what you did so i was able to call the airline they were able to not only switch me to the airport i flew out of but it's a straight shot instead of a layover and it's 66 bucks cheaper so i get a refund oh nice so there's a bit of a happy ending. It's a win, bro. But it makes me seem like he looked at the wrong airport for flights, because if that flight is a direct shot and it's cheaper, maybe you should have probably booked with that airport. Now, again, to recap, he booked his own flights. He is local. He is the one that didn't pay attention when he was booking a flight.
Starting point is 00:15:22 Wait, one follow-up. Who paid for his flight? Did you pay for follow-up. Who paid for his flight? Did you pay for his flight or he paid for his flight? It was like a collaborative effort, I believe. Okay,
Starting point is 00:15:29 so you mean Menace got the $60 refund. Yeah, who gets the refund? Because he didn't pay you for the last time that you gave him Uber money to get here from the airport.
Starting point is 00:15:36 Menace paid for the content right now. Yeah, I paid for that incredible story. It would be valuable because we got to the gas station. I'm like,
Starting point is 00:15:44 are you going to help me with some gas? He's like like with these prices no way yeah what is it california what gas prices when i left my apartment yesterday uh the gas station my house was 396. wow yeah he's living in america everybody yeah another uh reason to move to houston texas actually can i just call you train wreck tyler from now on yeah that's fine he told me this story when he went to the gas station to buy some stuff the guy saw that he had texas actually can i just call you train wreck tyler from now on yeah that's fine he told me this story when he went to the gas station to buy some stuff the guy saw that he had texas id and he's like what are you doing back here yeah he's like don't ever come back here just stay where you are true he's like i mean that in a nice way just don't come back all right well we're
Starting point is 00:16:17 recording live at morongo casino here hey yeah yes hey? We're going to be doing some giveaways, but if you're not here, what you can do actually is go to our Instagram, or if you're here and you're listening, you can go to the Woody Show Instagram, or you can go to my Instagram, Menace, M-E-N-A-C-E, and we're actually giving away a hotel stay for Morongo
Starting point is 00:16:39 Casino, and all you got to do is go to our Instagram and fill out the information on there. You know, tag a friend, the usual, and then follow Morongo Casino on Instagram. All the information is there. Just go to my Instagram, at menace, M-E-N-A-C-E.
Starting point is 00:16:54 I've tested out the pool, and it is sick, so it's worth it. So after this, we have a little meeting, a little get-together at the Marketplace. Now, we've gone to pretty much every restaurant at Morongo. We're standing actually right next to Wahlburgers, which we absolutely love. But the Marketplace is something that they've been working on for quite a while. Now, it is all-you-can-eat fine dining.
Starting point is 00:17:19 So they have different stations. Now, look at Tyler's eyes as I'm talking about this. Tyler's like, I suffered at the Dallas airport with no food. Actually, Tyler, what have you ate in the last 36 hours? Ham sandwich, and I think that's it. Okay. Well, we're going to treat you right. I am starving.
Starting point is 00:17:35 We're going to check out the marketplace. I'm so excited. If you want to check it out, as you're on Instagram, entering that contest, which is going to end by noon on Monday. Brian. So I see Brian here. He's from our station, our local station here. It's Alt 101.3.
Starting point is 00:17:51 Can you come here for a second, Brian? Give it up for Brian, everybody. Brian's one of the DJs. I saw the hat in the crowd. I was like, dude, that's a radio guy. That's definitely a radio guy. That's a radio guy for sure. But that hat.
Starting point is 00:18:04 Brian, I's a radio guy for sure. That's definitely a radio guy. That's a radio guy for sure, but that happened. Ryan, I have a question. So as we're standing right here right now, is this considered the Coachella Valley? Yes, it is. Okay, cool. Are we on the very edge of the Coachella Valley? If you go kind of like back west, you're kind of like in the IE, back in the Inland Empire. So it's kind of like the Coachella Valley, just on the border.
Starting point is 00:18:21 Yeah. You're like 15 minutes away from Palm Springs. I know. Usually when you come to like Coachella, I have friends that live in Palm Springs and stuff. You get to Morongo and you're like, okay, we're border. Yeah. You're like 15 minutes away from Palm Springs. I know. Usually when you come to like Coachella, I have friends that live in Palm Springs and stuff. You get to Morongo and you're like, okay, we're there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:29 This is, you know, this is the market. It's like, hey, you get somebody to wake up in the backseat. It's the beacon. Well, we talked about this. Like when people go to Coachella,
Starting point is 00:18:35 like the festival, they think it's in Palm Springs. Yes. But it's not. Never. Like it's all the way out at the polo grounds in India. Like you still got to go
Starting point is 00:18:42 like another 35 minutes until you actually see the Ferris wheel. Like it's not in Palm Springs. I know I, I've shared this story a billion times, but when I lived in San Francisco, I booked at Morongo. That's why I was so familiar with Morongo because I'm like, oh, this is the best place to stay for Coachella because I don't want to camp.
Starting point is 00:19:00 And then a lot of people don't know that Coachella the music festival is actually an Indio not Coachella itself the city of Coachella and you can't be Stop Menace, literally you were everywhere you've been at the NFL Draft you literally were at Coachella, you were at Stagecoach you were at Gronk's Party to put on ESPN, you can't Stop Menace you can only hope to contain it
Starting point is 00:19:19 I'm just trying to keep up with Tyler, this guy, multi-city traveler right here as long as I get to the correct starting point. Menace just documents it better. For sure. Yeah, for sure. I mean, I guess the difference between Menace is like, Menace will document everything.
Starting point is 00:19:33 I will have the dumbest story in the history of time. Well, I mean, it's very good for the podcast. Yeah, what happens to Menace? He ends up inside Gronk's party, partying next to Gronk. How did Tyler do? Oh, he was stuck at the Dallas airport. Sleeping on the floor. Spent the night.
Starting point is 00:19:48 Now, Randy has a new job, and you have been doing some traveling. Where have you gone? I've gone to Indianapolis for the NFL Call of Duty. How is that? We have a station there, Alt-1033, for the Woody show. Go ahead, Brett. Can we park it here to complain about Randy for a second? Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 00:20:04 That's when we do the best. Randy never tells us he's going anywhere. We don't know where he is. All of a sudden, we'll get a random picture going. Working on that. Man, Indianapolis is a pretty rad town. It's like, oh, you're in Indianapolis? That's great.
Starting point is 00:20:17 That's what happened last week. He texted us a picture of the UFC fight, and I'm like, where is that? I look it up. Oh, he's at Phoenix. Yeah. It was a fun time. I'm working on communication as a whole. It's like the ultimate humble brag.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Well, when he went to Indy for the Combine, he texted us, dude, you know what sucks? Airplane movies, right? And we're like, oh, you're on a flight? And he's like, yeah, I'm going to Indy for the Combine. I'm like, dude, I was literally drinking with you on my couch yesterday. Like, you did not bring up that you were going to be
Starting point is 00:20:44 on a flight tomorrow morning. I don't want to talk about stuff. Wait, hold on my couch yesterday. You did not bring up that you were going to be on a flight tomorrow morning. Why am I talking about stuff? Hold on. Hold on. He says that. I want to ask. Is he doing it to flex? Is it a flex?
Starting point is 00:20:53 I think it's a sneaky flex. Yeah. This is not. I think it's a, I'm not going to bring it up, but I'm going to bring it up when it's a thing. And I'm like, oh, by the way, he did it in Seattle. He went to Seattle. He's like, oh, you know what sucks about Seattle? I'm like, oh, you're in Seattle? Oh, I was in Portland. I was about to tell you. Or Portland, whatever, dude. Yeah, I'm to Seattle. He's like, oh, you know what sucks about Seattle? I'm like, oh, you're in Seattle?
Starting point is 00:21:05 Oh, I was in Portland. I'll tell you. Or Portland, whatever, dude. Yeah, I'm in Portland. Portland's such a weird, strange, but cool town. Oh, you're in Portland? Great. Thanks, buddy.
Starting point is 00:21:12 Hey, Randy, what are you doing? You didn't text me. He's like, oh, I was graduating from ASU today. I was in downtown Los Angeles. I didn't go anywhere crazy. Buddy, thanks for letting me know, dude. The ASU thing, I was a little disappointed you didn't give us a heads up on that
Starting point is 00:21:23 because I would have gave you major points. He's wearing an ASU jersey right now. Oh, yeah. Randy graduated from college. When I get my master's. After all these years of us waiting for him to go through college and suffering and trying to help him out. And what happens?
Starting point is 00:21:33 Hey, Randy, are you going to meet us at the Disneyland takeover? Oh, sorry. I was graduating today. OK. All right. I'll give you an honest answer as to why I didn't mention Disneyland. Because I was going to wait it out to the bitter end and be like, I'm not going to ask
Starting point is 00:21:46 until it's brought up organically. That you graduated from college? No, the Disneyland. No, no, no. See, he's deflecting. I'm not deflecting. This is the exact thing Grant does. He talks in circles. He has a scheme in his head. My mom didn't even go to my graduation. A magician. He like,
Starting point is 00:22:02 you know, he misdirects you. I want to bring it back to a little bit more of sports real quick though. I am going to ask Brian, are people aware of the Firebirds,A. We've been dying for an actual concert venue, an actual arena where you can hold 5,000, 6,000 people. So not just do we get the Coachella Valley Firebirds, but we're also going to be having some huge headlining acts coming out here as well, too. There's probably going to be some indoor basketball as well, too. So, I mean, this is going to be like a multi-purpose arena. It's not just going to be the Firebirds. And for this desert, they've been screaming for it for a long time and it's such a tourist attraction as you said like there's some people that come out from la to stay here at morongo and now to go to the arena you're about
Starting point is 00:22:52 like 15 20 minutes away like it's so convenient oh that's close i didn't because i'm obviously i don't live out here so i was no like you're basically like yeah you're 10 minutes from like palm springs and like the arena is right off cook street in palm desert which is like another 10 15 minutes on the highway so it's so convenient to come out here and have a great weekend and see some sports. It seems like we're going to be out here a lot, guys. Honestly, you know what's the funny thing about expansion teams? Obviously, there's the Seattle Kraken expansion,
Starting point is 00:23:15 so it's a new team in the NHL. They're going to be a new team in the NHL. If you nail the jerseys, if you nail the look of the team, it goes a long way. And the jerseys, the look of the Firebirds, it's awesome. It's on point. Yeah. If you look good and you have a good social media presence, you're killing it when you're brand new.
Starting point is 00:23:33 Yeah, you're golden. I did wake up this morning and I said, Eric, aren't you excited that the Bills are going to be in town. Your beloved Bills will be in Los Angeles on September 8th playing the Rams. The very first game of the NFL season. This is huge. This is awesome. I thought you'd be excited. And then I also informed you,
Starting point is 00:23:58 which you weren't even aware of because when I said that, you weren't even excited, which I thought was a little bit... I'm honestly a little salty about it. I was like, that's a little bit bizarre. He's not excited that his favorite team is going to play. And then I also let him know, like, hey, by the way, that is also when we have vacation time. What do you call vacation week? Yes.
Starting point is 00:24:17 So now I'm a little more excited about it. Yeah. So you can go to the game, do whatever you want, get blitzed, have a great time. But season opening game, banner game for the Rams at SoFi. We've been to SoFi. It's a little pricey. Parking alone probably costs $200. Thursday game, before you told me about the vacation week, I was like,
Starting point is 00:24:36 dude, how the hell am I going to tailgate a Thursday game, pay for the tailgate section, which is like $300 to get to SoFi, go to the game, which is probably going to cost like $200, $300. You can sit on the moon at SoFi. But now, you know, I'm a little, I think, honestly, I'll go tailgate and just get blitzed in the parking lot. It's fine. I'm going home. I offer to handle parking.
Starting point is 00:24:55 I'm like, I'll just get dropped off and I'll take you home. We live next to each other. Honestly, if there's one window in an NFL building right there where Randy works, right next to SoFi at the top, I'm going to be staring across trying to just peek so I can see the billboard or something. If only there was someone that could actually get you in that works for the NFL or maybe get a parking pass. I can't do that. Or maybe you could park at his work or something.
Starting point is 00:25:19 No, I have looked into it. So since you've brought that up to me, I have shifted my momentum a little bit. Because your mood, yes. The tickets are not as pricey as I thought they into it. So since you've brought that up to me, man, it's okay. I have shifted my momentum a little bit. Okay. Your mood. Tickets are not as pricey as they, I thought they were. Well, tickets are already on sale,
Starting point is 00:25:30 right? You could throw them like literally 90,000 people in that effing stadium. Yeah. So it's not as pricey as I would be. It's like 200 bucks to sit on the very top row. We've been there. Yeah. It's not a bad seat in the house.
Starting point is 00:25:40 I spent like 400 bucks to watch the bills plays the Buccaneers in Tampa Bay last year. Watch the Bills lose to Tom Brady again. That was awesome. But, I mean, honestly, when it comes down to it, you know,
Starting point is 00:25:52 I'll probably bite the bullet and pay it, but I'm just trying to be disgruntled right now. It's all right. All right. All right. Well,
Starting point is 00:25:56 I'm trying to be disgruntled. Honestly, probably going to be the best game of the season. And I was excited for you. And then I was a little disappointed when I, you know,
Starting point is 00:26:04 you poo-pooed it this morning. Yeah, you also asked me at like 3.30 in the morning. I'm just a grumpy person early in the morning. This is a fact. He is. It's true. And also, in his defense, communication isn't like the number one thing on our show.
Starting point is 00:26:16 I mean, ask Randy. Randy learned that's why he sucks at communication. So, I'm a product of a tortured household. Yeah. We didn't know about the vacation. It will be cool when the Bills play in the first game of the season and win, and they play in the last game of the season and win. Well, also, I just want to shout out our good friends at the Chargers,
Starting point is 00:26:35 who are our partners. Hashtag Volta. I did record a new commercial to let everybody know that tickets are on sale. And I had to call Eric just to make sure my pronunciation was correct. There was no explanation. It says, man, it's calling. I answer, he says,
Starting point is 00:26:49 Khalil, Matt. It's Khalil, like heel. And he's like, no, it's not Khalil. I'm like, no, it's Khalil, Matt. Khalil. Yes. I just want to make sure
Starting point is 00:26:55 I got it correct. And also, I want to point out, the Chargers, if they would have won their division last season, the Bills would have came out and played the Chargers last year.
Starting point is 00:27:01 We could have done a big thing, but they let me down. Are the Bills going to play the Raiders at all? No, not this year. No. The furthest west they come after the Rams is the Kansas City Chiefs. Okay. What, Randy?
Starting point is 00:27:14 What? That's funny. Actually, let me bring it up. Since you brought up the Chiefs, yes, myself, Woody, Greg, and Ravy are going to be in Kansas City next week. Actually, next Friday. That'll be May 20th. See, like you said, he's a world traveler.
Starting point is 00:27:30 We're going to be at KC Beer Co. from 4 to 7 p.m. And the first 50 people that show up actually are going to get some beer chips and some food catered by us. So if you want to come hang out with us, you're listening from Kansas City, you can do that. If you're listening from Philadelphia, we're going to be in Philadelphia. That would be June 5th. Yes. We'll be all of us again. Woody, Ravey, Greg and myself are going to be at the summer block party that's happening at Xfinity Live.
Starting point is 00:28:01 So if you want all the details, check out our station in Philadelphia. And it's a free event, so all you got to do is secure your tickets online, and there's going to be a bunch of bands, there's going to be a bunch of food.
Starting point is 00:28:14 There's a place called Chickie and Pete's that I love. They have lobster, french fries that are quite delicious. Will Randy be there? Will he all of a sudden
Starting point is 00:28:22 text us that he's on a plane in Philadelphia? Hey, guys. I could swing a few things. Tyler will fly into New York before he goes to Philadelphia. He's like, hey, I was supposed to go to Philly.
Starting point is 00:28:30 I ended up in New York. Is this where I'm supposed to go? I was supposed to go to Philly. I confused it for Pittsburgh. Oh, wait. Tyler's still here? I don't know where I'm talking, by the way.
Starting point is 00:28:38 Are you awake? It wasn't my turn. I was just waiting. I was just sitting there. I will say. Usually when he doesn't talk, you just assume he's playing the MV of the show or something. Matt, I was just finding you mentioned him say. Usually when he doesn't talk, you just assume he's playing the MV of the show.
Starting point is 00:28:45 Matt, I was just finding you mentioned him falling asleep. So My Chemical Romance released a new song the other day. Tyler's like, oh, I'd love to hear it. So I play it, and we listen. It sounds like six minutes long. It's a very long song. So come the end of the song, he's like, I'm like, what did you think about it?
Starting point is 00:29:00 He's like, oh, I liked it. It sounded pretty good. Even though I fell asleep in the middle of it. I'm like, you fell asleep? He fell asleep for three minutes of the song yeah i'm exhausted dude i mean i would support a radio edit of that song it's quite long but it's actually like upbeat and actually like and i'm not a my chemical runs fan whatsoever but like it actually had energy behind it it was a nice switch for once yeah it was. Yeah. I'm a big fan of those guys. They were always super nice when they were like at their height. I got to play
Starting point is 00:29:30 Wii bowling with them. That's how long I played. That sounds fun. That I hung out with them. We listened to this song too because I brought it up to my fiance. We're driving out here. So we listened to the song and we I was like, oh yeah. So that means they're obviously they're going to be playing at We Are Young. When We Were Young Festival in Vegas. What is it? October or whatever. And she's like, oh you yeah. So that means they're, I mean, obviously, they're going to be playing at We Are Young. When We Were Young Festival in Vegas,
Starting point is 00:29:46 what is it, October, whatever. And she's like, oh, you remember, they were going to start doing it all again, but right before COVID happened. And I'm like, damn, that's right. Two and a half, what, two and a half years ago, they had that show at the Shrine. And everybody was like super excited,
Starting point is 00:29:58 like they're back. Everybody's there. Yeah, they had some dates in Vegas that I wanted to go to. They were going to do like T-Mobile Arena, like massive shows. But they're on a lot of lineups for music festivals across the country. I know that they're on the lineup for Riot Fest in Chicago. Hell yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:13 That's pretty awesome right there. Chicago, again, I've said many times, one of my favorite places to go to a music festival because you can sit in your hotel room and then walk across the street and go into the venue, which is awesome. And the best festival to go to? Riot Fest. Riot Fest. Brett loves Riot Fest. I was this close to going to Riot Fest one year when the Misfits first reformed and we're going to be there.
Starting point is 00:30:34 In the last three years, all I've heard Brett talk about is Riot Fest, his Rammstein show, and what's the Star Wars celebration? Star Wars celebration. It's almost time. Star Wars celebration. Two more weeks and I'm going to be there. I've been waiting three years to go to this thing. Nice. Because I haven't been since.
Starting point is 00:30:50 I posted a photo on my Instagram at St. Bort. You can follow me there. I posted a photo recently. The last time I was at Star Wars celebration, 2007. Wow. That was crazy. I was a 19-year-old young me that has so much youth and energy and thrive and happiness in myself. He was there.
Starting point is 00:31:08 He's going there to recapture it, guys. Yes, exactly. He's going to find it there. So are you saying that Star Wars Celebration is your fountain of youth? Maybe. How do you think I've stayed so young and youthful and happy? For the most part, I look pretty young. That's how I did it.
Starting point is 00:31:21 It's just Star Wars. Interesting. The Force is strong with me. But, Menace, if you're asking if there was anything highlighted that anyone else would want to do, you can meet star of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Ewan McGregor himself. We'll be there. Oh, hell yeah. Photo op is $300.
Starting point is 00:31:37 Oh, no. Worth it. And he doesn't set those prices. That's the promoters. But $300 the moment I heard that. So what's his cut of that? They usually pay him a flat fee, right? Yeah, they pay a flat fee up front for anyone that's actually doing signings and photos.
Starting point is 00:31:50 I'd be pissed if they paid me a flat fee. And I look at my line and it's just like. They're making so much more money. It's going to be thousands upon thousands of people. How long do you get to talk to them? Well, so it's funny you should mention that. It just depends on the person. And usually there's a certain timeline that they want to cut but it depends on how much they like you so when i was at star wars celebration in 2007 star wars celebration 4 the only person
Starting point is 00:32:13 i wanted to meet was darth maul ray park he was there he was in my price range of 60 or whatever it was for a photo and a signee everybody else got about a minute to two minutes. I got ten minutes because I was the only person that wanted to talk to him about his role as Toad in X-Men. I was like, dude, I loved you as Toad. That's a deep cut, bro. Dude, his eyes light up. He looked up and he's like, I love playing Toad. Everyone wants to talk
Starting point is 00:32:37 about Star Wars. I want to talk about Toad. I actually spoke in that movie. You can actually see my face in that movie. Nice. Yeah, so Star Wars Celebration. You can find me trying to buy random ass action figures. Nice. Have you been saving your pennies? Are you going to drop ducats? No, because I just spent $30 at the
Starting point is 00:32:54 Inland Empire toy store over in the 909. Outside of Star Wars Celebration, Brett has only been looking forward to this one toy shop on his way out to Morongo. I'm making a pit stop. I'm going there, bro. I'm making a pit stop. And I did. And it was pretty cool.
Starting point is 00:33:07 There were so many cool. I got the Star Wars table that I want to see. And I spent $60 on AEW action figures yesterday. Nice. At Walmart. Sweet. I got somebody somewhere. I'll find it.
Starting point is 00:33:19 All right. Well, another event that's happening is the NFT Expoverse. And I'm actually doing a giveaway for that. Give it away to VIP passes for it. That costs $3,000 each. You can enter. You're giving these away. I give them away on my Instagram.
Starting point is 00:33:35 That's like 10 photos with you and McGregor. I know. I'll go to the right airport for those. Go to add minutes on Instagram. You can enter to win right now. You'll see the post for the uh nft expoverse and the event is going to be happening at the LA Convention Center at the end of July uh it's so funny because well funny and sad at the same time because again
Starting point is 00:33:59 uh there's a there's a gentleman that's been on the Woody show. He's like tech expert guy. Many years ago, he told us, guys, check out Bitcoin. It's 20 cents. Buy some. 20 cents per Bitcoin. We're like, okay, cool. Didn't listen to him. Could have been on a yacht right now. So a couple months ago, he starts talking about, hey, I'm going to launch this podcast about NFTs.
Starting point is 00:34:24 And I'm working on a project. If people want to be a part of it, just listen to the podcast. Check out whatever I got to do. It just came out about a week and a half ago that his NFT project that he was talking about sold $287 million. He took home, personally, $100 million. What is this guy's number? Can I put it in my phone? He seems to be ahead of the curve.
Starting point is 00:34:50 No, he's totally ahead of the curve. You should follow him online. His name is Kevin Rose. He started that website back in the day. It's called dig.com, which is pretty much like pre-Reddit, similar to Reddit. This guy is on it, so follow him online. Going to money real quick. I'm finding myself eating less and less at fast food places, not because I want to eat healthier, as I should be. The prices are too damn high. Are you guys
Starting point is 00:35:16 finding that? I mean, how's the cost of living for you guys going? What do you think? Ordering these food boxes, we would get them 50% off because they're desperate for people to subscribe, so they send you discounts all the time. So for like a couple weeks, we had food boxes being delivered, and that would just be our dinner. So we were spending probably like $40 in groceries a week. Cool. Guess who has a key to his apartment so his little Freshly boxes
Starting point is 00:35:39 don't sit on the balcony all day? Oh, wow. Me, of course. I thought that was actually because Randy locks himself out of his apartment once a week. That also. Yeah, he has locked himself out of his apartment
Starting point is 00:35:51 three times already. And he one time texted me. It was like a Saturday. I was not awake yet. He's like, well, I guess I'm just going to walk to Porto down the street. An hour and a half later,
Starting point is 00:36:00 he's like, well, you want these little potato balls? Wait, but what about the potato balls? That was before I had a key to his apartment. So then his, I'm going to call her sister-in-law because it's Gio's sister. But then she showed up and left him in the apartment. So now I have a nice little key to his apartment in my house. It's a Hello Kitty key.
Starting point is 00:36:16 But what about the day? Raising canes. It was a Raising Canes key chain. There was a day, though, that we were at work. We were live on The Woody Show. And Eric is getting texts from Randy. He's ignoring it. He's like, dude, I'm busy busy i don't need to deal with randy's nonsense right now all of a sudden i get text from randy tell eric to look at his phone yeah and i'm like why what is
Starting point is 00:36:34 he what do you need he's like i need the hello kitty key so we call randy randy's talking to us speakerphone in the studio and and I text my fiancee. I'm like, hey, Leanne, are you home? She's like, yeah. Can you go down and let Randy in? So then she walks down and talks to us through Randy's phone, and I hear, here you go, Randy. And I'm like, hey, Leanne.
Starting point is 00:36:55 And she's like, hey. Let's him into his own apartment because he locked himself out for the third time in, what, five months? The worst part, too, is you never realize you forgot your keys until the locked door closes behind you. Then you're like, wait a second. But he's not going anywhere. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:37:11 I wasn't going to work. That's what I'm saying. The one time he locked himself out, he just walked to Porto's for the next hour. The time she let him in, he just didn't go to work. So he's locking the door behind him for no reason. Okay, wait. I'm still kind of confused. Like, how are you locking yourself out of your apartment exactly?
Starting point is 00:37:28 Because he's not paying attention. Well, because for my apartment, I have to turn the key in order to lock it. And then I leave. So it's always on me. Yeah. Do you only have one bolt lock? Yeah. I'm not going to talk about locks with you.
Starting point is 00:37:42 The door gets locked, and it closes behind me. I don't realize I have my keys on. I like that the guy that went to the ROG airport is questioning you how you locked yourself up. I don't want to have a boring conversation about locks and locking mechanisms. Let's save everyone from that. I mean, Tyler, you would be screwed if you're locked out, right? You just recently said you had some friends move in.
Starting point is 00:37:57 Yeah, so my buddy that moved into my apartment complex, he has my spare key. Okay, cool. And he works from home. Nice. If I ever happen to lock myself out, which I don't because I have one deadbolt, so it's always on my key ring. You know, what's funny is
Starting point is 00:38:11 the only people that have spare keys to my house live in San Francisco. So that's very inconvenient. That is not a good idea. One thing that we did gloss over is that you are the handler of his packages, his food so it's kind of like a tier system though because we talked about how randy handles my garbage
Starting point is 00:38:30 and then you handle randy's uh food so if i come home and i it's usually he usually dude honestly though randy and geo get a ton of stuff delivered like really like are they secret millionaires that we don't know about man I don't know, man. And it's not small packages. Like big boxes. I'm like, hey man, what was that box you got?
Starting point is 00:38:50 He's like, oh, an AC unit. I'm like, oh, AC unit? Hey, what was that? Shelf. I'm like, what the hell?
Starting point is 00:38:55 They're big boxes. Yeah. But now I usually, it's usually when I see it's like a grocery box because I don't want food sitting out in the sun
Starting point is 00:39:02 for the most part. Is he carrying a man? What can I say? So wait, I have a question. Has Randy ever offered to make you food from any of these food boxes? No, the boxes. Oh, he did give us
Starting point is 00:39:16 ice cream. Shut your mouth. He did come over one day and say, hey, you want this banana pudding ice cream? I don't like it. So I got banana pudding out of it once. It's a nice gesture for myself because his food will sit in the sun if I don't see it. Yeah, it's very nice.
Starting point is 00:39:32 Because we get home earlier. I mean, it was second down. There was one day where it sat there, and I kind of forgot about it. And then I took it into his apartment. I'm like, hey, man, drop your box on your couch. And he's like, thanks. And then I see him literally five minutes later walking up the stairs. It's all right.
Starting point is 00:39:44 It's all right. Oh, thanks. And then I see him literally five minutes later walking up the table. It's all right. It's all right. Mark wave hot. Hope that hope that Sam is not cooked already. Anyways, well, we're going to wrap this up again.
Starting point is 00:39:54 If you're listening on the podcast, you have until Monday at noon. If you're listening to this over the weekend to enter to win a hotel stay at Morongo Casino.

Well, that's because Randy got ripped at you the last three times. That's what I told Eric, and Eric was like,
Starting point is 00:42:21 it's such a dumb reason not to wear sandals. I don't want to wear sandals. You're going to make fun of me. Don't you remember the last time we hear Randy was wearing the shortest short shorts I've ever seen in my life? Did any of you guys tell Woody that I wear Crocs?
