This week we talk Randy Health Update, Sad Food News, Free Streaming Apps, Online Deals and more!

What's new? What's new with Metis? What's up everybody and welcome to another edition of What's New Pod. I am Metis. I'm joined by Bortz, a.k.a. Bretz. He's an audio expert and syndication expert with the Woody Show Morning Show that you can hear across the country and around the world on AFN. He has an assistant. His assistant's name is Eric, a.k.a. Nick Soundwave. He no longer works at Fox Sports. I don't. I'm officially off the hook, I guess.

Yeah, I'm over here full time. Yeah, you didn't get laid off. So if people don't know, you've always been, what, four days a week with the Woody Show. Yeah. But yeah, now I'm over here full time Monday through Friday. I was only missing, what, like eight hours a week. I was doing the overnight producing gig for about three of my five years at Fox. So yeah, it's a little new, a little different.

But yeah, I will not be working 7 p.m. to 3.30 in the morning this Saturday. I will be sleeping. You're all Woody Show all the time now. Yes, yes. I love it. You say eight hours. I say a whole day of torture for me. True, true.

So I'm much happier with this setup and arrangement. We do have a gentleman from Houston, Texas. His name is Tyler, and he works in sports radio. From the Sean Salisbury Show. What is up, Tyler? How you doing? I guess I just realized I'm the only sports radio. Oh, my God. Here we go. I just realized it. No, no, no. I just realized

you have no idea how close I am to just I'm oh, dude, this guy shoe horning his I'm a sports producer into our group chat. I am this close to just driving out to Houston and killing him. He dropped it. You were here. You were here. You had just driving out to Houston and killing him. He dropped a... You were here. You were here.

You had your chance. You wasted it. He dropped a, oh, while I have somebody on the phone tomorrow, I'll ask him, bro, I was a sports producer for three years. You can't fool me with this. I have so-and-so's phone number.

You talked to him for five seconds before he talked to the host. It was a full minute. It was a full minute. You triggered me so hard right now. He's been shoehorning this. I'm a sports producer so much into our conversations in Tailgater. Oh my God.

Tailgater Sports Podcast. I was going to text you a few days ago when this happened because Tyler completely tried to flex on Eric. He was like, yeah, I'll ask Ian Rappaport about it. Dude. When I talk to the rap, by the tomorrow well i haven't even got to randy randy from the woody show who is also a radio dj on alt 987 in los angeles you'll find a way and the last podcast

we were in just drama with randy because he was living in a hotel. Yeah. His whole family got COVID. He didn't know if he had COVID or not. We're waiting on the test results. And if you've been listening to the Woody show, Randy has COVID. So he went back home just to wait it out with your family. How's that been going?

And how do you feel? It's been kind of annoying. Being here like this definitely solidifies the fact like, all right, man, this is the year I got to get out of here. But, uh, but I mean, as far as like symptoms go, I got no fever, no cough, no, not that many chills or aches anymore. I just can't smell or taste anything, which kind of messes with my head. Cause it's like, okay, well, I'm not eating anything for pleasure. I'm just eating stuff to survive now so you still have hunger though right yeah yeah i still get hungry but it's just like okay for instance yesterday i ordered a uh bowl off a grub hub from a local spot and it was typically it's typically yeah i know i know i know but i had a credit that's the thing

for christmas credit but i want to i want to test something out so i ordered something i usually wouldn't get it was like quinoa and like wild rice and yams and just gross veggie stuff. I ate it all and I couldn't taste anything. So then for the rest of the day, I'd take veggies that I found at my house. Bananas. Yeah, because this is a great time to lose weight, right? I'm telling you, do a push-up or two, maybe a crunch. You know, with those things you crunch your belly and your abs.

Yeah. Dude, you could totally like push this into like dropping some poundage yeah because 80 of it is all eating yeah and my buddy who had it he said that he couldn't taste or smell for five weeks imagine five weeks of a diet my sister my sister knows somebody her friend who's day 28 this week without taste wow yeah i would slowly start long helmet yeah i would slowly start eating healthy right away. My girlfriend, one of her coworkers, came down with COVID, and she's like, I lost 23 pounds. Nice! Dude, this is not even like a jab at you. Do it, man.

You're always talking about these weird ways to get. You're talking about these weird diets, keto, or whatever, these meal preps. COVID is your silver lining. Bro, my breakfast has been bananas and vitamins for the past like six days. All right, good. Good, keep it up, good. Good. Keep it up. Yeah.

Finally. Water a day. Have we discussed that he's locked in his bedroom, by the way? His mom will not let him out. Which is weird because his family has COVID as well. My mom is patient zero. Bro, my favorite part was she's on the phone with one of the neighbors the other night and she's like, you know, honestly, like it's really just all about how well you take care of yourself like all myself okay and i'm like okay mom

yeah how's everybody's new year's guys doing anything a hotel alone i know the what is amazing i know our group chat was on fire but i was i'm telling you i was too far gone i had four bottles of champagne with spicy nacho, and all we ate was crab and shrimp. So we had nothing in our body and just blasted, wasted. That sounds kind of awesome. Yeah, it's kind of great. Weren't you kind of wasted, Bort?

Yeah, yeah. So I went to a local pub, picked up some food, Burbank Pub, shout out, amazing food. By the way, they have some great chicken, spicy chicken there in Venice. Sounds good. So I decided to switch it up some food. Burbank Pub, shout out. Amazing food. By the way, they have some great chicken, spicy chicken there in Venice. Sounds good. So I decided to switch it up for once. I never drink beer.

I'm like, oh, let me just go back into my old IPA ways and see how this goes. Yeah. Six, seven beers later. Yeah, I was drunk off my ass up until 7 a.m. It was great. Love it. Anybody else? Yeah, I actually went the same kind of similar route.

I had sushi. I had some sushi. I sent a picture to the group chat. We watched the Woody Show live stream while I was eating some sushi. Had a couple of beers. I was working the next day. So, I mean, you know, I can't get too crazy, but it was luckily, you know, just keep the ship afloat while everybody was kind of out on vacation. It was a little, a little blurry the next day, but I got through it.

I have to shout out your mom because, all right, so I'm much older than everybody else on the podcast. I couldn't hang the next day. I was totally hung over. I was throwing up. And I got to shout out your mom with all those blankets that she's given me over the years, because all I did was pile up the blankets and crawl under them. And I stayed under them for 24 hours.

Those blankets are the best. I did. I just wrapped myself. I'm telling you, listeners, these blankets are so damn comfortable. I know she sells them online. We got to set up where people can go buy them. Tell her thank you so much. You guys want to get into some food news?

Hell yeah. Okay, so last podcast, we talked about the red velvet Pop-Tart, okay? Now, breaking this week, pink lemonade Pop-Tarts. All in, all out. Oh, yeah. In. I'm in just on the fact that I love pink lemonade and I love Pop-Tarts. I know there's a possibility of this probably sucking because it's a Pop-Tart that tastes like pink lemonade.

But it's too positive, so it's got to be all right. But if it's tart, no pun intended, it might be really good. That sounds absolutely disgusting. No. What is wrong with you two? What? I feel like this has the potential to be the next episode of the, what was it? The 7-Up Cake, where it's kind of hyped up, and then it's just kind of a letdown. Dude, the 7-Up Cake was fire.

What are you talking about? Are you serious? It tasted like a lemon pound cake. Yeah, I just said it was just lemon pound cake. I wanted a little more 7-Up-y fizz to it. But was it good, though? Yeah, it was good. But like I said, I feel like this is going to taste like a lemon Pop-Tart or something.

But the 7-Up cake bites that we got were legit fire. They were way better than the cake. Menace, you had some. I'm curious as to what the icing flavor is going to be. Do you think it's going to be like a lemon strudel, basically, with just some like...

So what is pink lemonade? Strawberry lemonade, basically? It's pink... What is pink lemonade? That's what I'm saying. So I'm assuming it would be like a lemon strudel with the pop. And then the tart, the icing, would be like a strawberry, maybe? That's what I'm saying. I'm assuming it would be like a lemon strudel with the pop. And then the tart, the icing would be like a strawberry maybe?

That's a good question. What is pink lemonade? What's the flavor of pink lemonade? It tastes like pink, okay? I want to say it's strawberries incorporated into it. But that's strawberry lemonade. Okay, next. Klondike has a new coffee donut.

All in, all out. I haven't had a Klondike bar in probably 20 years. I never eat those. Wait, you haven't had a Klondike bar in probably 20 years. I never eat those. Wait, you haven't had a Klondike in 20 years? Yeah. Have you seen their selection? It's just like vanilla, though. But have you seen the selection at the store? No. Reese's Klondikes. Reese's Klondikes are so good. How do you know what you're

going to do for a Klondike bar? How do you know? Shut up, Tyler. I'm kidding, Tyler. They have Reese's, Heath, Oreo, everything. Everything Klondike now. It's amazing. Menace, guys, just to loop back real quick. Pink lemonade is pink because of food coloring. That's it? That's it? Cool. So it's just lemonade

and we've been bad boys all this whole time? We're like, mmm. It's sometimes colored with cranberry juice, raspberry juice, or crushed strawberries, but it's often colored with red food dye. So those things that you see behind all these fast food restaurants where there's a pink and a yellow and they're just mixing. It's just the same thing.

It's just the same thing with a pink and nothing. In-N-Out tastes different. I think they have a little cranberry in there. There's a little tartness to it. All I know is Big Lemonade is out here crushing my dreams. That's all that matters. I'm going to hit Tyler with the twisted tea in a minute. All right. Oh, we talked hit Tyler with the twisted tea in a minute. All right.

Oh, we talked about this on the Woody show. All in, all out. The new Korean fried chicken sandwich at Shake Shack. All in, all out. Is this like Korean barbecue flavored? I've never had Korean barbecue,

so I'm kind of like... Oh my God. Korean barbecue is the best. Yeah, I've never done the Korean barbecue thing. It's like barbecue, but Korean. Is that just like a teriyaki kind of flavor? Pretty much, yeah.

Okay, yeah. So I'm assuming, yeah, it'd be good. Yeah. I mean, if anything, Eric, when you go to a Korean barbecue, it's pretty awesome because the best places are all you can eat, but it's pretty ingenious the way they set it up because you're basically paying to cook your own food. Right. And my thing is, whenever I get offered, I guess I've never really been offered, but

I think about it and it's like, oh, let's go to the Korean barbecue spot. And it's like, oh, an hour and a half wait. And I'm like, I will just go next door. I know. Why so? Wait so long. It's always long. That's my thing.

And with Randy's point, it's you cooking your own food, too. Maybe that's what takes so long. That's my thing. I'm not the guy that's going to be, oh, I'm going to go wait in an hour and a half, two hour plus line because this thing is kind of hyped up. I'd rather just go ahead and in and out drive through and guess what in line for that too. The thing is, a lot with those spots,

they're all you can eat. So people are just sitting there all day cooking their food so it takes forever. The problem is if you go with a group bigger than like four people, you're there for like three hours because every serving only gives each person like a scrap of meat.

Yeah. Another thing I want to shout out is Pillsbury dough. And I did this on the Woody show. I shouted them out, but I've been having a pizza thon at my house lately because you know how they make the biscuits. Well, now they have pizza dough that you can just roll out onto a sheet and make

your own pizza. And it cooks in like 12, 14 minutes. It is super legit if you get the right ingredients. Pillsbury pizza dough has been a thing for a while. I've been using it for years. I love it. I guess I just found out about it. Hold on.

Hold on. If we need to know anything about bread, we need to go to Tyler, as we all know. Bread expert. I got Pillsbury biscuits in my freezer right now all right so how many different bread options do you have in your house right now four four okay what are they and you live by yourself i have yes uh hot dog buns burger bun white bread and then the pillsbury frozen yes dude i support it i love it wait you can't even try to be like half healthy and get like wheat bread or something?

Wait, Tyler, hold on. I have a very important question. I got pita bread. This is food news adjacent. Have you returned to the grocery store and have you bought the same amount that you did that first trip? I did return to the grocery store. I did not buy that same amount.

I bought maybe about three quarters. He got shamed buying less three quarters that's still like i know 20 pounds of bread well my thing is is that i go to the grocery store when i'm pretty much down to almost nothing what thing is i love how people go to the grocery store okay so my my fault question his bread thing is do you have do you have something to put on each type of bread like do you have lunch meat for the slice bread do you have burgers for the buns do you have hot dogs for the hot dog buns and i guess just are you gonna eat the biscuits yo i got butter i got cream cheese

oh i had bagels too that's right yeah i got um i got bologna i got cheese i got peanut butter i got salami i got dude whatever you want i got you I'm running my own deli out of my kitchen. Deli, man. I know. I'm running a deli then for real. Here's some food news that makes me super, super sad that Randy made me aware of that they're discontinuing the orange Red Bull. And what's sad about it is that is my go-to road trip drink is the orange Red Bull.

And I always stop at every gas station and pick it up and now it's going for a crazy amount of money online the screenshot that you sent us it was like a 10 pack for 100 bucks right yeah so if you guys find any more send to 3400 west olive avenue i know hook me up chavez so my backup is the yellow red bull don't tell me they're discontinuing that because i'm going to be at a loss. Can we stick on this trend of upsetting with energy drink companies? You guys know I love Monster so much. I drink it all the time.

They're great, amazing people. You wear the gear. Yep. I wear the bandana scarf thing, the shirt, everything. But how is it on every road trip outside of los angeles i can find monster hydro everywhere it was like my new favorite water yeah calorie free caffeine hydration but in los angeles i can't find it anywhere i'm trying to be healthy that's the closest brett's gonna get to water too man i know take that out of his life yeah liquid death that's all i have for water i refuse

brett for some reason has like this it seems like almost like this vendetta against just regular water. It has to be from a can. It has to be specific. Comedian Bert Kreischer was talking recently about how he's dealing through the same thing

and he said he discovered liquid death. Hell yeah. That's all he can drink. So is liquid death just water or what is it? So they have two versions of it. It's water from Austria. Water from Austria.

They have a spring water version and they have a fizzy water version. Alright. Which one are you going with? I go with the fizzy. Naturally. Because it also has the same texture as a Coors Light. So while you're drinking, you think you're drinking a beer and it murders your thirst. Coors Light. Same texture as water.

Who would have thought? Screw you. I hit up Liquid Death. I hit up Liquid Death because I used them for a business class I was doing. And the guy who reached back to me was a Woody Show listener, but he never got back to me again. So Liquid Death, if you're out there. If you're listening, send out the beacon. Let's go. Please.

I have a reorder coming already. Also, I see Randy's like all about these deals online lately. And I know you mentioned it before on the podcast but there's a public twitter account where you bought how many pop tarts and like how much food you sent a photo over and it was like your whole kitchen table was just full of items and how much did you get all these items for so how's it even work okay that's a loaded question so let's i'll break down i'll break down how much is on my table okay this is a guesstimate, so I don't have to bring up my app and start browsing through. Seabass here for bluechew.com with another customer testimonial. Dre hit me up on Twitter asking if Blue Chew is still working during all

the lockdown stuff. And I said, yes, absolutely. In fact, I got an email from them reminding me that they are totally open, fully functional. Blue Chew is perfect for these stay-at-home sort of times. Go to bluechew.com. Make sure you use that promo code Woody to get your first month free, just $5 for shipping. And after entering all your information, you will get a real doctor's prescription from a real pharmacy straight to your door, delivered contactless, as they say, with the actual same medications like you would get with a Viagra or Cialis, but at much cheaper price. And again, right to your door, no hassle, no going anywhere. So Dre hit me back and he said, quote,

the blue chew tabs are the best gifts from the Greek gods of sexology. I was going to pound town for hours. And then he has the double high five emoji. High five right back at you, Dre. That's B-L-U-E-C-H-E-W.com. Again, make sure you use that promo code Woody because that first month is totally free. Just that five bucks for shipping.

I think in total, as far as Pop-Tarts go, I bought 140 plus Pop-Tarts. Okay. Sort of variety. 36 or 24 Fig Newtons. They come in like those store packs. Two big barrels, peanut butter pretzels. Five boxes of peanut butter of granola um from that uh

the really popular granola company what else am i missing here i think i got a few more things oh some bags of chips and that's pretty much it and it's in this massive box from amazon pantry and the whole reason why i found out about this is because i'm a part of a group and the group is actually the brother-in-law of my of a friend that i went to high school with because my friend kept getting playstation 5s this is all from the playstation 5 thing so i joined this group to fulfill orders for people and then from there i've just kind of just been in the group and i snagged small deals here and there and this has also opened the door to like different other groups now is this mispriced items or just price

cuts the way it works is uh there are certain computer programs called bots and some are called monitors and the monitors literally monitor certain websites and what they do is based off the computer code that's released when something is relisted depending on the set price if the discount is significant enough uh it alerts us in the discord channel and then depending on how big of a discount and how and how big of a product it is it'll get pumped up to priority and then from there it gets released onto the discord channel the moderators are posted onto the main channels and be like hey guys check this out yada yada yada so when this went live i saw it and i was like you know what i'll just see what they got available and so i got a bunch of snacks for all

of us behind the scenes guys we come back so i decided to get all this so all in total everything i have behind me and everything i saw in the picture was a little under 70 bucks. Oh, wow. A ton of stuff. Randy getting Rona is awful and all, but him sitting on all these Pop-Tarts and just knowing these are just waiting for us

has been the worst part. Yeah. I know. Did he test positive literally the day after he got everything? Yeah. He's like,

I came home and there was like six boxes waiting for me. Dude, I'm loving Discord, by the way. I know you've been shouting out probably for a year now on this podcast, Discord, but I just recently joined it over vacation and it is a great place to learn things, get the heads up on stuff. I'm all about it. Definitely. Speaking about online stuff, let me shout out a quick sponsor. If you're

looking to move to Las Vegas or out of Las Vegas or to Arizona or out of Arizona or Utah, in or out, whatever, go to homie.com slash menace. That's homie.com slash menace. H-O-M-I-E.com slash menace. They have flat rates. You will not get ripped off by agents who are overcharging you for free. So if you're looking to move, hit them up. Homey.com slash menace. You want to get into some tech news?

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. All right. I love the double tech news. Bort, I got to give you some love on this. Pluto TV. I'm loving that as well. Dude, hell yeah.

I'm on it 24-7. What are your favorite channels on there so far so you guys are probably too young for this but rescue 911 oh yeah hell yeah hosted by william shatner okay so unsolved mysteries was massive back in the day and then kind of like an offshoot reenactment show like it was rescue 911 and it was hosted by william shatner and so i'm like reliving all these episodes that i watched as a kid dude yeah that was a great show we we would watch that and uh unsolved mysteries like back to back it was like on what was it like lifetime or something usa oh is you saying yeah that's why i would watch all the wrestling and i would watch

unsolved mystery that makes sense because i was watching the USA Cartoon Express earlier in the day. Dude, I love Pluto because not only do you have all the on-demand options, you have all these channels that continuously run. So there's things like Beyond Belief, Factor Fiction, like another version of Unsolved Mysteries. I found Crank Anchors. Yeah. Comedy Central released a Comedy Central animation channel.

And it's that Beavis and Butthead drawn together. I've been watching Tosh too. All the old Tosh episodes. Pluto TV it's free. Download it. Check it out. Also found out that the because I started tweeting about how much I love it. Found out that the person that runs a social for Pluto TV

huge Woody Show fan. So shout out to them. So we got to support them. I did download discovery plus i'm loving that as well so did i oh you did yep what do you download it for bro you should know by now what's on there i'm trying to think what's on there because they have eight hold on they have hgtv yeah they have tlc that's why i got it because it has all the crazy freak shows on there that's half of why shasta wanted to get it, yes. And then they have Planet Earth, which I think Eric would love.

Yep. There's tons of documentaries on animals and Planet Earth. So what would be on there that you would be interested in? I mean, there's this channel. It's called the Travel Channel. But really, it should be named the Paranormal Channel. Oh, yeah. Every season and exclusive episodes of Ghost Adventures are now on Discovery Plus.

So did you get the commercial-free version or the commercial version? I went with the commercial. I did, too. So it's $4.99. The commercial-free is $6.99. Oh, that's it? Yeah. Yeah, I wanted to try it out.

Look, Randy's already, oh, I'm ready to buy something. I got a lot of time at home right now. Yeah. Yeah, and besides that, Oh, I'm ready to buy something. I got a lot of time at home right now. Yeah. Yeah. And besides that, they also have everything on the History Channel. So if you like ancient aliens and stuff. But the commercials, I don't mind them because it actually gives me a moment to think I need to get up.

Thank you. And you get to see what products are out. Yeah, that's cool. Yeah. I love it. So it'll be a cold day in hell the day I pay for Peacock just because I don't want to pay for that. But they have a free version, right?

But they have a free version. So I've been watching my favorite NBC show, Parks and Rec, and the commercials run. I gotta admit, man, I kind of like the commercials. I'm like, alright, I'll get up, go get something to eat, do something else instead of sitting on my ass the whole time. Yeah, and the commercials are not really that long. Yeah, it's the same thing with Pluto TV.

They have about a minute of commercials, maybe once or twice an episode, and that's it. And the same thing with Tubi. If you have about a minute of commercials maybe once or twice an episode and that's it and the same thing with 2b if you have to be which is only on demand bunch of free stuff like cartoons from the 80s and horror movies and stuff minimal commercials and it really doesn't bother me anymore am i the only one that watches cable still yeah like i was talking to all smart tv yeah i'm Yeah, I'm sitting here. I'm like, I was watching TNT yesterday on my Spectrum subscription. Dude, get Apple TV, get a Fire Stick, do whatever. Or get the new T-Mobile setup.

It's all about streaming, man. I just don't know where to go. Because my thing is I have the internet with my cable. And then I don't know where to go to make sure I have my sports channels. That would be YouTube TV. YouTube TV? We did a free trial for Fubo. I have YouTube TV.

How much sports? Is there a lot of sports on it? Yeah. I mean, I usually just stick to the main ones, which is just ESPN and then Fox Sports. But there are some different variety of channels. I think the Big Ten Network is on here. Remember, I showed you. I was watching Arizona State versus Michigan Hockey that one time.

So there's a bunch of different channels here. I mean, the only down part, if I'm being honest, the price is like $68 a month. But they do send you a free Chromecast. And four different people can use it at the same time. And there's basically unlimited DVR. Oh, for family and stuff. But then how do you guys get the internet? God, am I the old man here?

Yeah. Jesus Christ. Dude, you don't even have the free streaming options. I know, I don't. I like that we didn't ask the sports producer, by the way, which streaming option he has for sports. I know. What do you have? Well, I will shout out Randy for this. I

mooch his NFL Sunday ticket. I appreciate that. That's real love right there. A couple other things. Hold on. This jerk. I'm probably not going to share the password next year either. I'll be watching the Packers play and he'll join in. Eric has seen the text.

He'll be like, I'm going to boot you out of your Sunday ticket. I don't feel bad about it. I'm like, alright, man. You suck. You know you would be watching Green Bay. I mean, true, but Atlanta's on at the same time, but I got to watch the Nuggets, man. It's his Sunday ticket. True, true, true.

We'll figure it out for next week. I also wonder I gotta watch it's his day ticket true true true Yeah, I also wonder what else he's probably mooching who knows he probably has my password so other crap too So what are you actually? What are you using the stream by the way though like a fire or something? So what I'm using well actually I stream everything through my xbox I just download all the apps but as far as sports goes I use CBS all access for any games on cbs because it's only five bucks a month so i'm like okay it's not bad and then uh any games that are on abc i use the abc streaming app that's on my computer and nbc has a free app i streamed that

on my xbox fox sports also has a free app on my xbox i use both of those and i just use my parents direct tv login info, and I get to watch the games for free. See, that's the thing, too. Then you get to these apps, and then you need to provide a TV provider login, and it tells you Spectrum,

DirecTV, Cable, or Dish, whatever. And now I'm like, okay, well, now I'm back to square one. Why don't I just get freaking Cable? Yeah, that is the frustrating part. for free. The whole reason you're getting it is because your parents

have a DirecTV login. And that's free for me. Stupid question. All right. Eric, that's 30 years old. We'll sit down and we'll figure out a plan for you. Tyler is useless. We'll work it out.

Oh, this is what I do. I just mooch off everybody else. Eric, you got to do the same thing. Hey, Matt, go to your mom and get her credit card, okay? And then go to Randy and get all his logins. I have an NHL Sunday ticket one that I got for a college student. So like 70% off, really good deal. Or at least I thought it was until I realized that you can't watch games that are local to you.

So, okay. I screwed myself over on that one. But anyways, Eric was trying to watch some international hockey that was going on. Like big thing, USA versus Canada, USA versus Sweden a few days ago. A week ago, really. And I was like, yo, just use my login if you want to. And then Tyler, in the middle of our our conversation interjects like, I'm totally going to be using that next year to watch some kids.

I called it. Shotgun. In other tech news, I just read that nearly half of all Americans picked up video games during the pandemic. That is huge. Dude, that's good.

Video games for years have been the ultimate medium for people. That is the media people want. That's what they're spending their money on. And it doesn't surprise me that is exploding out of every, like just everywhere. It's crushing everything.

And Randy still can't get a video game chair sponsor. Or a video game sponsor. Or a phone app sponsor. I'm going to get so mad right now. I think. I'm happy. Tyler, shut up. Happy Americans have found a new hobby and a new love.

I'm just going to leave it at that. If Tyler gets a video game chair before Randy. Hey guys, check this out. Sean Salisbury shows the right across the top. F you Randy embroidered across the bottom i love it this is what i wanted to ask randy i saw a tweet today yeah ps5 on sale click here best buy clicked on it already sold out so is this still extremely hard when do you see it becoming available for everybody probably around march march early april i i suspect that that'll be

they'll be easier to grab much much easier yeah i also saw in xbox news that there's problems with the controller disconnecting and they said that by the next update it'll be fixed that's the thing with these uh with like the wireless controllers especially now the way how these are essentially just computers these updates really do run everything. You know, kind of how like with your iPhone, sometimes you'll have an issue and it'll really just be the iOS update or your laptop can't run a program. It's because you haven't updated it. It's basically the same thing with these consoles because they're built as computers and these

controllers are simply accessories. If something is weird with the software, then the controller is not going to work. So I'm switching it up to football news. Now, who do you think's going to the big game? Now, I've asked you months ago, who do you think is going to be there in the end, guys? I mean, I'm pretty sure I said the Chiefs a while back, but guess who's good and who's going to win now?

The Buffalo Bills. Okay, come on. Let's ask the sports radio guy. Okay, so Tyler, who are going to be the two teams that are going to end up... He's going to find out a way to say the Texans who aren gonna be who are gonna be the two teams are gonna find out a way to say the texans who aren't in the playoffs at the big game eric's bills they're they are fun to watch and they are really good i am rooting hard for them those fans are some of the most passionate people i've seen for anything any sport in any city, those fans are insane. And like I said, they are fun to watch.

And I'm hardcore rooting for them. On the other side, it's a bit of a mess, to be honest. On the NFC side, it's basically a wide-open race. But I'm still going to pick the Saints. I think that was my original pick, and now they're the number two seed on that side. Bills and Saints. You know what? It could shake out to be a Bills- super bowl really yeah and then i might not have talked around you

for like two weeks i have a so fun and then when the packers win i can wear like my packers super bowl gear all around work and be like hey buddy i have a question oh wait so are the texans still even playing no no they're totally out a dumpster fire okay they're so bad right now it's texas it's season's over for them okay so i never even asked you this were they even allowing people in the stands in houston in houston yeah they were allowing a very select few for the world series which was in arlington they were letting i think a total of like 10 000 people into that stadium the houston rockets over here they're allowing think, a couple thousand into the arena. Same thing with the Texans over here in Houston and with the Cowboys in Dallas.

They were allowing a couple thousand people. So it's slowly and steadily getting back to normal a lot faster over here, which I'm not gonna lie, it's kind of nice. But by next season, if COVID isn't fully solved by the time next season starts, I still expect those stadiums to be probably half full. Which works in the Texans' favor because every year their attendance is half full.

Yeah, I get it. Because every time I drive by a Legion Stadium in Vegas, I'm like, man, I want to go inside. I want to check it out. Well, that's the Raiders' choice on that one because they could have had it with the state. They actually had fans at a college football game. Reno, Nevada, and UNLV had a game there, and they had fans. I kind of agree, though, because it's a brand new stadium.

Yeah, exactly. They don't want a half-ass. It's the same thing with SoFi here in LA. They don't want a half-ass opening. They want the full bells and whistles, packed house. Yeah, it would be so weak. Yeah. But, you know, it's state by state, stadium by stadium.

The big thing, the bills actually got allowed by the state of New York to allow 7,000 fans in for their playoff game, but they haven't had any all year. Oh, okay. The funny thing about that, though, is that Cuomo, who's the governor of New York, he said, like, oh, I'm going to allow 7,000 people into the stands, and I'm going to be one of them to celebrate our accomplishments,

and none of the fans want him. Yeah, they signed a petition like 10,000 signatures and then all of a sudden he's like, I'm not going to make it. I got to rewrite a speech. So he gave his tickets away. I have a question. I saw I was looking at some numbers of all of our podcasts and I saw tailgater on there and it says how to break

up with your football team as one of the titles of your podcast. Did Tyler break up with Atlanta Falcons? It was a titles of your podcast did tyler break up with atlanta falcons it was it was that trash it was a dark time in his in his fandom this season um and i brought up one of the points where i was really down in the dumps with the bills and i don't know if randy had an example but i asked him like could you ever and we both pretty much came to the conclusion no even with how crappy our teams were playing you know we couldn't but that's what that was he i don't think he did. He definitely ripped them apart

for a little bit. Now, what would be the team that you would go to if you broke up with them? If I broke up with them, I think I would... I don't want to pick LA because I was there for so many years when LA didn't have football, and now that they have it, it's kind of the new flashy thing.

I might actually pick the Texans. But here's the thing. have it it's kind of the new flashy thing i might text i might actually pick yeah i might actually pick the text because i'm but here's the thing here's the thing here's the thing let me let me hear me out here he's like i just moved here and i will admit this as coming from the fans that have called into our show, they are very passionate. This isn't me trying to plug the show or anything. Just the people who call in are super... That's in every city!

It's not special to Houston! Guess what? You're in Buffalo. People in Buffalo are going to be passionate calling in. You're in Cleveland. That's Buffalo. Have you seen the people in Buffalo? Every city, dude. This isn't some special Houston thing. You guys. You sound like somebody who never moved away from LA. Sorry, this is crazy.

I don't want to get too passionate about it because I think you guys should save that for Tailgater Sports. You can continue that. You can continue that. Tailgater Sports is basically this version. It's what's new, but with sports. We're just basically getting that
