When WestJet first took flight in 1996, the vibes were a bit different. People thought denim on denim was peak fashion, inline skates were everywhere, and two out of three women rocked, the Rachel. While those things stayed in the 90s, one thing that hasn't is that fuzzy feeling you get when WestJet welcomes you on board. Here's to WestJetting since 96. Travel back in time with us and actually travel with us at westjet.com slash 30 years. The good and the bad of two a day's Dan.

Over this week, I've got good news and bad news when it comes to Dan Overlock. First, the bad. I've got a text, what I would describe as a very disappointing text, that Dan tried out Ella Langley and decided not for him. That hits my mind and attention this morning because Ella Langley has a brand new music video out on YouTube for Choose in Texas. It features Luke Grimes, Dale Brisby, our friend, Shea, the country music singer from Australia, also featured in this music video.

And it just reminded me again, what a songbird, an absolute angel, is Ella Langley. And you have tried Ella Langley, and you have decided, Dan, not for me? Yeah, she writes great songs. They're very lovely to listen to. It's just the poppier country I just don't relate to as much. That's all. Yeah, and Patrick had your back on the concept of pop country, something that I, as well, wouldn't put as the main course on my meal, but it certainly deserves a place on the plate.

Let me just say something. I'm not a music snob. I like. Red dirt country, some bluegrass, real country, outlaw country, 1970s country. These are main entrees, but I'm not a snob. I'll drink a bush light. And let me tell you something. There's a place for pop country. And here you are in your flannel, once again, in your garage band ethos, and you have decided you're too good for Ella Langley. Who, by the way, I would say, is not necessarily pop country. Not all of it. You're right. I did a deep dive into other songs, and you're right.

But the ones I heard, the main ones, just had a little more of a digital vibe than a, you know, rustic vibe. There's a place for it. Choos in Texas? The trash can. You don't like? I just mean production-wise. Patrick. If you were here physically, Patrick, I would make you.

I would destroy you. I'd make you bend down and pick something off the floor so you would turn red and start breathing hard. Well, jokes on you because I can't bend down

very easily, so. Well, that's what I do if we got to fight, Patrick. I'd just go low then and make you bend at the waist. I'd be done. Wrap the legs. I'm worried about my kids.

The boys are getting really big now. Like, ugh. Oh, dude, I'm kind of there. Don't get me wrong. I can take my boys, but... Well, we'll get to that. But yours are six feet... I think I'll keep dad strength on my boys six foot five for the oldest.

And I don't know how long dad strength lasts, that whole thing. Like, when it expires... We have a prediction on that, by the way. I do think it's potentially you could... You could be... So let me just get this straight. I'm 50, and my oldest is 18. So when he's 28, I'll be 60.

I'm 51. Yes, I'm 51. When he's 28, I'll be 61. I think I might still have dad strength on him. Do you think? If I keep myself together, if I keep working out, the psychological advantage to me will be so great that I think I could take it.

Your kids are huge, dude. No? Your kids are huge. They're only going to get stronger. They're only going to get stronger and bigger. But we also have a crystal ball for that. What is it? What's the crystal ball?

Well, we'll get to it later in the show. We did a Will Kane, Chat, GBT, BT, Crystal Ball, what your life will look like in the future. So we'll get to that in a little bit. Really? Yeah, we did. Yes. Y'all did.

It's fantastic. It's all the rage. Everyone's doing it now. Yeah. But yeah, they're just going to get stronger. They're just going to get stronger. Look, they guys acting like they actually do a job around here. Imagine that.

It's a novel idea, but yeah. On the macro scale, set my kids, six foot five kids aside. On the macro scale, when does. biology overcome psychology? When does size and strength overcome the advantage of being someone's father? 24.

Do you think the kids go... 24? Yeah, probably. Do you think the kids go less hard in the dad because he's older, maybe? And so there's a little advantage there? Yeah. Yeah.

Take it a little easy. There's that. And fear. Fear of your father. that like has a long tail. Rare these days. And a lifetime of meanness built up in the father that no son can actually match. The psychological advantage of having been the one that actually spanked your bottom at one point, all of these things.

And a lack of will and desire to actually win because no son actually wants to submit his father. Like he thinks he does and it has that spark. But when it comes down to it, the submission point. He actually doesn't want you to do because he knows of what that, uh-huh. Imagine taking down your dad? The actual effect on both of your minds. Yeah. It would mess me up.

Yeah. I'd be like, wait, I can take my dad. No. You have to Harry Carey then after you lose. Is that what it's called? Yeah, it's almost like you're the... You have to submit to... You know, if you beat your dad, then it's like you're not just beating your dad.

You're taking on the responsibility of now being the alpha. It's hard. to call him for advice. It's definitely harder to ask for money. It's definitely harder to fall back on your dad. There's a lot in the head there, a lot, unless you hate him. If you hate him and you had that relationship, that's totally different. But I think that I'll take my sons for another 10 years.

Do you mean physically like, but to your point? In a wrestling match or in sports? Yes. No, in a wrestling match. That's what we're talking about. Okay, got it. Or like a fist fight. Yeah.

But I will, to your, hopefully it's not a fist fight. Hopefully it doesn't have. But I will say to your point earlier, it's getting harder. Like, I don't actually want to do it. Like when they want to do it, I, I'm looking for exit ramps. I'll be honest. I'm looking to get out of this. I don't really want to.

I know I could win. Big softy. I know, no, I know I could win. Oh, sure. But it's not, I'm tired. And I don't really want to do this. And yeah, it's not fun anymore. There's too much resistance.

And they're both soccer players. So the legs are a new thing that's really hard for me to deal with. I never had those because I was a swimmer. So, like, I had a best friend since I was one. And we would wrestle, like, all the time. Like, it was a constant battle of who is the alpha. Like, that's like having a brother. Do you know what I mean?

The same age, if you have the best friend since you're won, it's just what you do. But legs were not a big factor. It was usually who could get on top, pin the arms down, or do something like that. And with my boys, they've got these soccer legs that can be like donkey kicks and things like that. And it's not pleasant whatsoever. And they're long. Yeah. Kicking is a masculine.

I hate that. Talk to Bruce Lee about that, bud. Kicking is it masculine? I mean, tell that to Anderson Silva or one of the MMA guys. Yeah. Joe Rogan. I just think is so weak. It's like, use your hands like a man.

Well It's just because he can't use his legs That's like kicking wise That's true Is that a Is that a Western civilization product Like Patrick's point of view Because I'll admit

I have a little bit in that Me too Like why are you kicking like a bha What are we doing here? Like aren't we supposed to be standing up and hitting I'll admit I have a little bit of that in me as well Is that like the old English Western civilization like put them up man

Put them up like Like, you know, say, put your dukes up. Well, it reminds me like Bobby Hill. Like learning the lady's self-defense and kicking in the groin, you know? Like, I feel like it's weak. But that's Eastern. That's Asian. Yeah, but then you look at the rise of MMA and it's all about winning and the legs are a gigantic part of it.

So we're not doing that gentleman's boxing match anymore. Now we're doing full-on violence and who can win. It's because the short guys wanted advantages. That's why. leverage. That's why. Because a short guy can't win in a boxing match to a tall guy. So you need to get low. You need low center of gravity.

That's how you win a fight if you're a shorter guy. So that's why I think the rise came. Look at all the fighters. They're all really short. It's a really good point. Yeah, I mean, the Brazilians had something to do with this, the Jiu-Jitsu, all that stuff. Brought the legs back in. But long and short of it is, I don't have to do any of that to take Patrick out. I've just got to make him breathe hard.

So there's a place. for Florida Georgia line Patrick. There's a time for this is how we roll. And if we're having a good time, and that is the ultimate in pop country, like if this is how we roll comes on and we're all having a good time and you're like, this belongs in the garbage can,

you're the turd in the punch bowl, Patrick. You are the guy that has ruined the vibe. So there is a place for pop country. But Ella Langley is better than pop country. Choose in Texas is good Dan and it's I would agree it's better than Florida in Georgia line. She throws in there every once in a while.

Is that authentic? And the way she just kind of emphasizes a certain word here and there. It pulls you in, baby. I mean, I don't know. I'm listening. I'm listening on the boat. I'm listening at a cookout, but I'm not choosing to listen to it myself as all.

Are you, like, as I age, I like yacht rock better than I did, you know, like Steely Dan or whatever. Eagles, yeah. Like, I can see that. Yeah, that rocks great. I just don't. Fantastic. Yeah.

Let's come back. Yeah, what about Jimmy Buffett? You got a place for Jimmy Buffett in your life, Patrick? Sure. Yeah. It's fun. Dan gives it the thumbs down. Lest anyone forget, okay, these two music snobs.

Dan was on American Idol singing Jason Maras or something like that. Ed Shearer. Okay, before we forget, he just as good. Ed Shearin. Dan was on American Idol and a pair of skinny, jeans and some, what do you call those boots that are ankle high, and singing Ed Sheehan to J-Lo. So let's just not, let's not give him a little more music snob credit.

I agree. So, very disappointed this morning and two of days, Dan. But on the plus side, we got a note this morning, here on Good Friday, Dan has found God. He's going back to church. I'm uh you know we we talked a lot about we talked a lot about faith and morality and stuff this week and it gave me a lot to think about and I was walking by the bigger churches in New York City today I was like you know what I think for myself and my soul and my like just mental state I should go into one today on a good Friday and see how it feels because it's been a while and did you I don't know later on

when I after work I'm going to walk by And go try to go in a church, see how it feels. The old church legs back. Are you going to a service? Are you just going to go in quiet prayer and contemplation and sit in the sanctuary? I was originally going to sit just quiet and by myself and just contemplate. But there is a service in my town later on tonight that I might try to go to. We'll see.

Nice. Yeah. Nice. Catholic? Yeah, I was Catholic. I was a big part of the church. I taught. I was a peer minister.

It was a huge, huge, huge part of my life. I was raised Catholic. Just, you know, life happens. So you're in for an hour and a half. Yeah. Oh, not on Good Friday. Of a lot of...

Might I suggest... My size suggests a nice 50-minute Protestant service as your entree back into the faith. Maybe it'll turn me Protestant. I don't know. Go to Episcopal church after this. It's too long. The songs aren't as fun.

Normally we have Catholic Mass, and those go long. But like, my sons did did the Tritium yesterday, and it was like two and a half hours. Yeah, no thanks. Oh, my. But today it's like Good Friday, so there's no Eucharist. I've gone to a two-hour Easter mass before. It'll be under, it'll be under an hour.

Oh, my. I sang at those. You know, it's a very Protestant thing to say. My grandfather was a preacher, and I think about it sometimes when I'm doing my job, whether on TV or if I have to give a speech. And he used to say on his sermons, if you can't get it done in 15. 15 minutes. You can't get it done. That's a good point. And so, uh, I think about that sometimes when I take to the microphone. Um, well, Dan, happy for you, proud of you. Might I just give you this one piece of advice? Sure. Turn off your critical thinking brain. Check aside skepticism.

And for that hour and a half or two hours, whatever you're going to do. And even if you don't go to service, if you just sit quietly in prayer, just be present. That's why I'm doing it. That's all. Just be present. That exact thing is why I'm doing it. Because I think I've gotten throughout my life just overthinking everything and trying to be too rational and trying to figure everything out that it just hasn't got me to a good place. So I think maybe trying something different will be good.

Let's take a quick break, but we'll be right back on Will Cain Country. All right, man, I love it. I love it. Can't wait for the report back from Dan's return to church. In the meantime, big story yesterday. really the second major firing of the Trump administration. Attorney General Pam Bondi out, serving President Donald Trump at the DOJ. The headline reads, I think it's time, the inside story of Pam Bondi's ouster from the Wall Street Journal. The Attorney General was always on the ropes,

but thought she was finally on safer footing. She wasn't, reads the subhead from the Wall Street Journal. Inside the article, it suggests that the major factors in President Donald Trump moving beyond Pambandi was the negative fallout from the Epstein files and a reluctance to pursue criminal charges against the adversaries of President Donald Trump. It's interesting. I've had a lot of thoughts on this because I've joked this is the one job I would have wanted where President Trump to have called and say, would you leave Fox? Would I have said yes to Attorney General? The article, and many of the accompanying editorials, suggested to no-win job, that being the Attorney General for President Donald Trump is the most no-win job in a Trump administration. And the reason for that is, as the opinion section suggests, that he asks things of his

attorney general that simply are not possible, that the demands are too great, and that he very much is aware of the criticism from within conservative media and conservative X towards, in this case, Pambandi for not going after more vigorously, the people who prosecuted the Russia collusion hoax or any of the other attempts to use the DOJ to go after President Trump. And what I would say is this, not in defense of Pambandi, but I, as a lawyer, do appreciate this. Making a case that is no less true, but in a different venue like television and certainly in a different venue like social media is very different than making a case in a court of law. The burden of proof goes far beyond common sense. So something that you and I might know that might seem obvious on its face that has enough evidence to persuade you towards the truth is not enough to get a guilty verdict.

Beyond a reasonable doubt is an incredible burden for the state. It's an incredible burden for anyone. Where I to go on TV and have to convince you of something, beyond a reasonable doubt, is not the same thing that we would have to do in a civil case, which is preponderance of the evidence, essentially 51%. And certainly not the burden of proof that I have in going on television and convincing you of someone's guilt. We did a fascinating story that went viral yesterday on the Will Cain Show on Fox News.

about some seven or eight odd scientists who have either gone missing or dead. And those scientists have together worked at places like Los Alamos National Laboratory or the NASA Jet Propulsion Center. And it's really odd that in a two-year time frame, and really just over the last couple of months, several have just walked away, walked into the mountains, gone on a hike, gone on a walk, and disappeared. A couple of others have been murdered with no resolution as to who, who, who, is the criminal, who is the perpetrator. And these are people with high-level security clearances and big jobs. And it certainly raises your eyebrows, should raise your antennas and should

raise an investigation, but that in and of itself is obviously not enough to even file charges, much less get a conviction towards anyone or anything. But that doesn't make the story unworthy to discuss. But obviously, that's very far away from the burden of proof that someone would have to have to begin to get a lock-tight case. And President Donald Trump is a dealmaker. That is his ultimate bearing. That's his bearing with Iran. That's his bearing with Ukraine.

That's his bearing with Vladimir Putin. That's his bearing with tariffs. That's his bearing with Congress. To make extreme demands, see the counterproposal, ultimately find something in the middle that is better from where you're started. But that's not the way it works in law, not in criminal law. It might be the way it would work if you were a civil lawyer, if you're a plaintiff's lawyer. I sue you. I want $50 million. We will settle for $20. Deal. That's just not the way it works. There is no compromise.

Right? Which is what he's used to. And there is no compromise in the criminal world. Yes, of course, you can plea and that type of thing. But that burden of proof still lurks. That beyond a reasonable doubt still lurks. And I do wonder if the demands on Pam Bondi or any other attorney general to get to what might be right and to get to the truth simply don't work within the realm of criminal prosecutions. Do I think there's a lot of Biden administration officials who weaponized the DOJ created false charges? When after Donald Trump as a political witch hunt, absolutely I do. Does that mean, I think, that Merrick Garland can be prosecuted for those things? It does not necessarily.

It doesn't mean I don't either. It just means that the evidence and the burden of proof are high. And that would mean the demands on the Attorney General are really, really, really high. And it might just go against the bearings of President Trump. I agree. You know, it's funny you said that at the top. Or it's reflecting on what you said. You guys not know when I've opened the floor to you, or do you have nothing to say?

I was waiting for Patrick. Oh, okay. Touche. Great job. Oh, okay. I agree. I don't know who the next Attorney General will be. It will be Lee Zeldon, perhaps.

That's where a lot of the conversation is. The acting interim Attorney General is Todd Blanche. People talk a lot about, like, loyalty with Trump, and where does that lie in this conversation, you know, for you? with someone like Pam Bondi. And like, does he, how does he look at people that work with him in the mindset that he has with dealmaking? You know, is it quickly transactional

or how do you think it works that way? I don't know. I mean, I saw some IQ deal the other day. I don't, you never know what's real and what's fake. I did see, these weren't conservative pundits. It was actually one of those videos of those guys it wasn't those two dudes that I never remember their name where they did like the top five lists.

It was another one that hits my algorithm, a man and a woman, and they're doing that like ranking stuff. And it had the IQ of presidents who was the highest and who was, it didn't have the lowest. It just had the highest, like your top five. Donald Trump came in at number one.

I don't know if there's actual, if there's actual, do we have that documented what different people's IQs are? But I'm just telling you these two people doing this video, like one of them has face tats. They're not, they're not like,

this isn't a Fox News video. Like this was from an unlikely source, at least visually. They're not AI. They were real people. And the female was, did not like it. She was like, oh, okay, it is. But I think he said his IQ was 175.

I really don't know if that's true, but I find it fascinating. I have a list here. For more? Oh, let's see. It's recent. What is this from? This is from Reader's Digest. The 13th presidents with the highest IQ scores.

Presidents ranked by IQ. So we have John Quincy Adams at a score of 175. At number what? Number one. Well. John Quincy Adams at 175. And then we have Thomas Jefferson at 160. After that, we have James Madison also at 160.

John F. Kennedy at 159.8. Then we have Bill Clinton at 159, the old grad. Jimmy Carter 156.8 on the IQ test. Woodrow Wilson, 155. John Adams, 155. Teddy Roosevelt, 153. James Garfield, 152. Okay, I'm getting bored. Where's Trump?

Was this before Trump? No, this just came out. It just goes down to Abe Lincoln at 150. So Donald Trump is not in this list. How do they know Abe Lincoln's? By the way, this is where, how do they know John Quincy Adams' IQ? Was there even IQ tests around in the early 1800s? That sounds like a 1900's invention.

You were taking one of those tests? Did John Quincy Adams go on the internet? He saw a post on Instagram and it said, take your IQ test here. And John Quincy Adams clicked through. and he took that quick test. He got all the way through, and then it said, for $15 you can buy your results,

and John Quincy Adams goes, I'm out. No, the source is whitehouse.gov. But it logged it, and we've had it forever. So now we can go back into the cloud and get John Quincy Adams' IQ. Mint has only been around since 1940s. How many times, by the way? So how long have they been doing it?

Quincy Adams was... Yeah. Harvard grad. How would they go back? and get... Fluent in seven languages? How would they go back and get their IQs? Impossible.

I'm calling BS on Reader's Digest. Had they rebuilt the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park? You just get... Come through historical records, speeches, writings, biographies, and documented achievements to estimate

the cognitive abilities of each president after the age of 18. Oh, I'm screwed. Oh, I'm screwed. I don't think I've ever taken an IQ test, but Patrick already told me X said I'm like a fifth grade level in elect

from my posts on X. I'm bad at tests, so I don't think I'd do well anyways. How many times have you guys been sucked in to Instagram telling you your personality type or whatever? You know what I'm talking about? Yeah. What kind of man are you? Are you a leader? Are you a father?

Are you an artist? You seen all those ones? Yeah. Four or five. And you're like, I do want. I've done it enough that I'm like, I do want to know. Am I a wolf or am I a bear? And yet I don't know, Ed, because.

now I'm burned. I've been burned so many times of like, I've taken the actual test and then I get to the, now you owe us 20 bucks for your results. And I've been like, no. I'm just picturing you sitting there. So I don't click them anymore. Being like, am I a bear or am I a shark? Like will It literally takes 20 minutes. You spend 20 minutes doing this and then you get to that point and you just don't know. You just wasted 20 minutes. But you know at the end they're going to ask for email. That's exactly what happens, Patrick. You know. I know. You know at the end. You know, we're or go, maybe this one will be free. Maybe this one's going to give me the results right here at the end.

And every time they want to know my birth certificate, my passport number, and then they want to know my bank account. And I'm like, oh, my God, have already given them too much. I'm out. X, X, X, X. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, it's the definition of insanity, literally. We know what's going to happen.

But yet we keep doing it. Let's take a quick break, but continue this conversation. we come back on Wilcane Country. Welcome back to Will Kane Country. All right, Patrick, you've got a couple, uh, where is it here? Let's pull it up. You've got a couple of reader, listener, viewer, comments. Tracy Trout.

Tracy Trout says, funny. Yes. Go ahead. You can read, Patrick. Oh, God. Would you consider the AG position if offered? Apparently you were. This thing we just went through.

Well, I don't know now. I used to say yes. Yeah, Ed, I have my bar card. I'm an inactive status. I haven't taken my continuing legal education. I'm probably suspended. My entire career, knowing I'd never go back to be a lawyer, was just keep it active so I'd never have to take the bar exam again.

And I will admit, over the last five years, I've lost track. It's possible that I don't have my bar card anymore. Let's check it live on air. I never thought I'm going to go back to being a lawyer. But if he calls and I'm going to go to B.A.G. You'll go gray real fast after that. I'll tell you what. Oh, yeah.

Wrinkles. You have white hair. I can do that job? In six months. Do you think Pete his grade over the past year? Has Pete gotten more gray? It works for him, but yeah, I think so. Yeah, I think he has probably too.

It's fast. Is he still pretty? Yeah. One of the most stressful jobs in the entire world, literally. What is? Pete now. He's probably 46, 47. He is 45. Born

1980. Forty-five. He's almost a millennial. He's got to have a birthday coming up. I've got to pay attention to that. He sent me a nice birthday text the other day, and then we ended up talking on the phone for a bit. June 6th. Dylan Rivers says, Will, who is your dream pick for the Cowboys at 12th? Can I tell you guys something? I think I've told just before.

I would say, this is kind of embarrassing. Every day, maybe every other day, I do a mock draft simulator. Every day. I've got one that I love. You do know? Do you do it for the Jags? No. We don't have any picks in the first couple rounds. Oh, yeah. If the Cowboys didn't have a first round pick, I wouldn't do it. but I got it good up here, Dan, if you want to put it up.

So I've done this so many different ways. All right. So I'm very, very, very, very capable of answering this question where you're doing. In fact, I should, I am basically Matt Miller. I'm basically Dane Bruegler. I am basically Mel Kiper. I know everything about, I'm telling you, I know everything. I can go five rounds deep in the NFL draft.

I can give you the whole thing, who I want, all. the way through. I get bored by the sixth and seventh round, but I can get you five rounds into the NFL draft and where I want the Cowboys to go. I mean, I want Bud Clark, the safety from TCU, if we haven't taken the safety before that. I'm interested in Kyle Lewis, the linebacker from Pittsburgh and the third round. If he's around, maybe Caleb I'm Orm, who's a linebacker from TCU as well. He's a later round draft pick. I've got every position of need and every round targeted of who I want for the Cowboys. The question is who's available, right? Dylan, the question is who's available?

The Cowboys' biggest needs are at safety, linebacker, and edge. Am I just fluently going through this? I'm trying to go somewhat quickly because I know there's a good chunk of the audience is going, holy shit, where is the fast forward button? 10 second, 10 second, 10 second increments. I know what you're doing. I do it all the time. Is it 10 or 15 second increments when you get bored?

I can't remember. Hopefully it's 30. If Caleb Downs is there, the safety from Ohio State, I want Caleb Downs. If he's gone and one of the edges are there, like Ruben Bain from Miami, I want Ruben Bain. I don't think David Bailey, the edge from Texas Tech will be there. And then finally, if a cornerback like, oh, he's got a weird name, the guy from LSU, Mansour Delane, cornerback, is there. Then that's who I want.

I would love one of those three dudes, all right? And then at 20, we come back and we fill in the gap on the guy that we didn't get. But truthfully, I want to trade down. trade down, trade down, pick up some second and third round picks, and I want Jacob Rodriguez, the linebacker from Tech. You're going to have to get him probably in the second round. He may creep into the first. Hope that answers your question.

Do you practice this in the mirror? That's... He doesn't have to. No, why? Was that good? What you're saying is, that was good. That was good. That was pretty good.

That was good. Get him back on ESPN. Mike. Desotel says, what is your favorite Easter candy? I hope it's not Kit Kat. Do you guys know I gave up sugar? I gave up sugar for Lent. Really?

Did you know that? Oh, that's why. Okay. First time I've ever done, I've never given up anything for Lent before. It's sort of a Catholic thing, I feel like. Yeah. I know a lot of Protestants, some do it. I've never done it.

Presaint and sacrifice. And I failed. Yeah. I failed twice. Two times that I could. remember. And I failed simply forgetting. When I was on spring break

in Mexico, it was like eight people at the dinner table, and somebody ordered a bunch of desserts for the table, and I did stick my fork in this bread pudding thing that was amazing. Doesn't count. And then the other day,

when old Chuck DeVore comes on our show, his wife always comes with him, and she He always brings, what is it, Ed? Pumpkin, but it's like a pumpkin cake. Yeah, it's like a, it's not full pie consistency, and it's not full cake consistency. So it's somewhere in between.

And I might have done it because she loves it so much sharing it with everybody. And it's like Jesus or Chuck DeVore's wife, you know, and it's really in this moment. And like, would Jesus want me to do this? And then, but the truth is that was the day I took off right after this show to go to my kid's soccer game and so I missed lunch and I hadn't eaten and I came back and there it was and I was like I'm so hungry and I just ate a piece of that and then I remembered afterwards you gave up sugar for live shame so that's my two failings so that's fine it's it washes out shame you think so yeah I mean the whole thing is like you're just trying to be better you're not trying to be perfect

there's only one perfect man there you go and he died on the cross today well I hate peeps I hate peeps I hate peeps. Those are gross. Jelly beans. Marshmallow-based candies. There's only one good answer. Jelly beans is highly dependent upon two things. Jelly beans are highly dependent upon two things. What flavor jelly bean you got and what else is available.

If nothing else at all is available, a Skittles-flavored jelly bean or red variety. I'm always a big red guy, you know. I wonder why. You see what I'm saying? Republican, red. I like blue. Like communist. Man, blood. No, but the strawberries, the cherries, the...

Those are good. The raspberry flavors. That's where I go on those things. Yeah, right. Raspberry is blue. That's why I'm a blue. Blue's a good flavor. Blue's my snow cone.

I go blue on snow cones. You know, because with blue, you're getting coconut or vanilla or raspberry. You know, another good snow cone flavor is clear? Clear, clear or white, you know. It's all the ice. It's not just ice. It's, it looks like ice, but it always, that's, that's usually coconut or something good, too. You know, the clear. That's how you do, everybody knows that's how you do snow cone flavors. What color? Yeah. Yeah. All of green. So, but if there's anything else there, even the best jelly bean starts to fall down the price. already ladder.

Anything else. There's a best answer. If there's nothing else around and you have a few jelly beans, you're like, oh yeah, jelly beans can be pretty good. You tell yourself that. But the minute something else walks in the room, you're like, man, jelly beans suck.

So it's like the prettiest girl in the room thing on jelly beans. You know what I mean? Yep. The best Easter candy is any version of a Reese's peanut butter cup. Bang. It is a...

The egg. Chocolate peanut butter, rabbit. The egg? There are some of them egg shaped? They're just peanut butter cups shaped in a different thing. That's the answer. But that's what it is. Did you hear the news?

That's the answer. The grandson of Rees's was pissed that they changed the ingredients to like high fructose corn syrup and things like that. And so now they're going back to the original formula next year. You know, I did see that headline, Patrick. And is that why I do feel like Reese's. has gotten chalky, too chalky. Yeah. And is that the new stuff they've been doing?

They're going to go back to a better chocolatey thing than this chalkiness we got going? That's what they say. Yep. One more on the Easter candy, because this one's good and divisive. Were you guys on like a Cadbury egg? Nah, too liquidy and weird. I'm not a fan. Yeah, I don't.

There was a phase where I was like, these things are good. These things are good. It just tastes like artificial something. The Cadbury Egg. Yeah, I know. I know. Yeah. I remember there being a phase when I liked them.

I don't know. I haven't had one a long time. Like if I broke open to Cadbury Egg right now, I bet I'd be disappointed. Yeah. I bet I would be. For sure. I had a peep phase.

Let's take a quick break, but we'll be right back on Will Cain Country. All right. Finally, one more. Let's do Elise Winters before we move to the next topic. You showed my question on your podcast, when to break, then never answered. Are you doing the seal swim again this year? I don't remember not answering that, Elise.

It was two questions, and you only gave half of one. You gave half the answer. As you notice on Fridays, this is a bit of a stream of consciousness show. I just go with whatever pops in my mind. I don't even know which topic is next. So I forget sometimes. And I do think I have conversational OCD. I'm usually pretty good at keeping strings together.

And what was I talking about again? I don't, at least I don't know. I feel a little less commitment this year. I really do. And it was rough last year. And the seal swim is going through some changes, some different affiliations. I have to see where Bill, my buddy Bill, is on this year on what's happening with the SEAL swim. I haven't checked in in a bit.

But as a side note, this is totally apropos of nothing, really. Last 9-9, I did an event for the Adaptive Training Foundation. The Adaptive Training Foundation is an absolutely phenomenal organization. Okay. And one of the guys that I've gotten to be friends with is through the Navy SEAL swim. He is former Navy SEAL swim. He is former Navy SEAL Jeff Gum, who sits on the board of the Adaptive Training Foundation. But you guys remember ATF?

We've talked about it in the past. Their founder is an absolutely incredible guy who's become a friend of mine named Dave Vibora. Dave was Mr. Irrelevant in the NFL draft, the last pick of the NFL draft. Played linebacker for a few years. I believe it was for the Rams. I can't remember. Went through a lot of things in his life, battled addiction. Dave ended up founding this gym.

based out of Dallas, the Dallas area. They bring in catastrophically injured people. A lot of vets, a lot of paraplegics, a lot of quadriplegics, and some other incredible people like, oh, a young lady in Idaho who had a car wreck, and she somehow in the midst of this car wreck, ended up 30 feet in the air, strung up on electrical wires, upside down for hours,

hours while they figured out how to get her down. She is, you know, she's lost, I think she lost one of her legs. She has very little use of her arms. She's a beautiful young lady. I met another one who was a cheerleader here in Dallas, Texas, and she was playing in the backyard with her friends. And they were going to do one of those deals where they throw her up and she does a backflip. And, you know, Lance did the whole deal. She landed on her head.

Quadriplegic. Dave takes all of these people. One of the guys I interviewed last night was Navy SEAL Dan Laccardo. Absolute badass. Dan actually volunteered at the ATF Foundation, helped train these people. Some years later, was in a horrible car accident, has lost both of his legs, and then he became one of the athletes at the Adaptive Training Foundation. I just come here to tell you, I've been there.

I'm talking about people without arms or legs. dragging a sled, a workout sled. You know what I'm talking about where you stack the weights on and drag it across the room. I'm talking about doing push-ups when you have arms only to your elbows. I'm talking about people who you would suggest and maybe at one point their life thought about it too. How the hell am I supposed to do that? Well, I've seen them put the rope in between their teeth and pull. Okay?

I've seen them do whatever it takes. And it was a fundraiser last night for the Adaptive Training Foundation because these people don't just get back their physical fitness, they get back their sense of purpose, they get back their sense of who they are and what they can do, and it rehabilitates the soul of the man and woman in this program, and it's absolutely worthy of checking out ATF, the Adaptive Training Foundation. I did that event last night, and the reason I thought about it, and once again dodged Elisa's question was Jeff Gum is a guy that I swim with every year at the Navy SEAL swim. And I just don't know.

something about turning 51. No, it's not that. I mean, I've got to saddle up if I'm going to do this. I got to start eating right, working out, swimming. I got to get right. You already cut the sugar out. I don't for, yeah, well, Easter's this weekend. We'll see how that goes after Easter.

After Lent, it's all systems go. On the sugar. All right, Patrick, what else do we have here today on the stream of consciousness edition of the Will Kane show? I think we should do the crystal ball. The quiz? The crystal ball? Yeah, let's do that. Could you lay it up and I'll read Will's.

All right, just do the crystal ball. Okay, so there is a trend going on among Generation X where they are using ChatGPT. Uh-huh? Gen Z or Gen Z? I mean, sorry, not Gen X. Gen Z, where they are using AI and chat GPT to, it guess is a crystal ball to guess their future. And so we decided we're going to do that with you.

We're going to, you're well-known enough. We know you enough that we can put in enough into JATGPT so that we know what your future will be. So here it is. So this is based on Chatch, GPT, of what I've inputted of our show and what it knows about you from the, internet. So, 2027, age 52, Will announces he's cutting back on nicotine, clarifies not quitting, optimizing, creates a new system pre-shows in, half-time's in, emergency debates in. He calls it

nicotine puritization. So that's what will happen for you in 2020. That doesn't sound like me. No, it doesn't. That doesn't sound like me. All right. Let's bump up to age 55. I'm cold turkey or all in. Okay. Let's bump up to age 55. There's no middle ground within. me, chat. 2030. Will fully commits to longevity mode. Cold plunges. 24-hour fast. Morning sunlight. Refuses one thing, yoga.

He says, I'm not stretching in a room full of mirrors listening to a flute. So I guess I'll listen to the Dave Asprey episode. I'm going to do this, but it's going to be another six years before I get to it. Another four years before I get to it. Okay. Yeah, yeah. So you're going to start doing cold plunges.

Basically the Joe Rogan method. at age 58, 23rd. By the way, I've already done those. Really? It's great. I don't have one. I've told you guys that, right? When I go on vacation, I always find out if they have one, and I love it. It's phenomenal.

I love the cold punch. Absolutely invigorating. I'm going to tell you something that I don't love. It's a hangover cure. Now I'm telling you, you're back, baby. That's true. You are back. Two minutes there at about 42 degrees.

Miserable, but you're a new man at the back end of the cold plunge. Maybe we should get Wim Hof back on. or on the show. All right. Talk about it. Moving long. Age 58, 2033,

Will Kane starts saying, I don't care what people say, but immediately follows with it. But here's what people are saying. That's going to be your new thing in 2033. That's what Chatsy BT thinks. Okay. I'm disappointed in this crystal ball so far.

Keep going. Okay. Age 60, 2035, his sons beat him in every sport. Will responds by lifting him. heavier, talking more trash, and claiming, I'm still stronger. It's a man-strength thing. So that's age 60.

That's like what we talked about exactly earlier. That's 10 years down the road. Age 60 is what happens. Nine years down the road. Yeah. Yes. Sounds about right. So you're just going to have to start lifting heavier to overcome your sun strength.

That's all. Okay. All right. Age 62, 237 launches a new segment called Common Sense Check. Grades America Week. gives Congress an F, gives you sports parents a D-minus, gives himself a B-plus with room to improve. I think you could do that right now. I thought this was going to tell me like if I'm going to run for something and how long I'm going to do this for a living.

I thought this was going to tell me something more. You're doing this for a living. Like you're still making segments. You're still doing this. Clearly. Clearly. So, but this one. Clearly.

Age 65 is finally you get to something you've been wanting. to do. So in the year 2040, you're going to write a book called Still Right. And the subtitle is, and now I have experience to prove it. That's the name of my book, Still Right. Still Right. 15 years. Yes. I like the double entendre. Yeah. And I'm going to not write again for a while. So I'm not going to write. So this whole thing about I need to write a book. It's going to be a while, so I might as well relax. Yeah. And then, but by 2040, Play a little more bumper pool. By 2043, they're going to create a Wilcane bot,

so you won't even have to worry about anything after that. It's not going to be really well. Yeah. The audience will hate it. Audience still wants the original, but there will be a Wilcane bot. And then by age 75, oh, it's not going to go well. You're still hosting, still debating, still convinced.

The problem isn't that people disagree. It's that they won't say what they actually think. So you'll hold true to your principles. So you'll not be... I find this very, very crappy. Wow. I don't see... I don't see that future, boys.

I don't see that future. Hey, don't take it up with us. I mean, like, we use AI. Just, you know, everyone once AI, this is AI. This is what you get. You're 2035. Will runs against Congressman Brandon Gill for Governor of Texas. Loses miserably.

All right. Just putting... Comes back and does all these segments. comes back and does all these segments you just, you just articulated. Writes a book. Still write, even though I lose. I just put it in career moves for you. Let's see what it says. It's loading. Expans to... Oh, God. Is it loading still?

Nope, this is not going to work out. I don't know. It needs more information about you. All right. That's nonsense. There's enough information. Good try, boys. That was nonsense. We gave it a shot. Oh, well.

I'm going to do it on you guys now. That's what I'm going to do it. You said it had all this information about me. I'm going to give it all the information that needs about each of you. Wait until you get to the description, the prompt on Patrick. It's a screenshot. The prompt is going to be incredible. Let me describe for you, my friend.

That one's going to be long. And then I'm going to say, please map out the next 20 years of his life. I don't think you're going to get past five. Before we go, it's like it's going to malfunction. Patrick can be like, I only have five years of projections. What do you mean 20 years? Back to the viewers really quickly. John T. Cahill says, as an attorney, if you were given the opportunity, how would you

have argued the birthright citizen's citizenship question before the Supreme Court? It seems they were not swayed. Really good question, John. I would have vigorously, passionately, and devotedly centered my argument on the original intent, the original drafting of the 14th Amendment. I would have leaned on the legislative record, even though I know the Supreme Court justices do not like using legislative record. The reason they don't like going back into the legislative record and seeing what the senators who actually drafted the amendment thought is because their perspective is generally, once they draft it, that's the definitive answer on what they thought. So everything else before is like pregame. And pregame really doesn't matter when it comes to the game.

That's the mindset of the justices. But in a synthesized amendment, however many words are in the 14th Amendment, and certainly when you're parsing phrases like subject to the jurisdiction thereof, I find it instructive to go back and see what they debated and see what they meant. And I would have really tried to impress upon the justices to look at the legislative record. I also would have couched this in understanding. the difficulty in overturning a hundred and, 140 years or 130 years of precedent. But when you put it in the context of basically, they won't care about this.

This is all persuasive technique, not legal argument. The way that every other nation on earth considers the concept of birthright citizenship. What would have been the argument is, is it really rational to believe this is what they meant? is it really rational to believe they had intended the concept of birthright citizenship to apply to illegal aliens or birthright tourism? And the answer is when you look at the way at the rest of humanity and civilization has treated it, you start to understand that you're an outlier. Why are you an outlier? Well, not because of the way that the founders envisioned it, again, back to leading on the legislative record, but instead because of one case, one Supreme Court opinion, and I believe it was 1898,

Wick, Kew, whatever, Hopkins, the Chinese dude in the 1800s where they decided this concept of birthright citizenship.

I would have tried to argue both the consequence which we have already experienced, the world context, and the original intent. I do think

I would have failed for the record, John. I would have made a great argument and I would have failed because all of that carries less weight.

for at least Chief Justice John Roberts, then maintaining the status quo as a devotion to conservative consistency and not overturning 130 years of precedent. Before we go one more viewer question, and this comes from Brian Haycraft. Why are you such a douchebag? It's a great question, Brian.

And I think like every douchebag, you don't know the answer. You just don't know the answer. And that's why you're a douchebag. Yeah. For the record, I'm not a douchebag. Ryan, every dude is one of three things. An a hole, a D-bag, or a Rick. I'll let you pick which other two I am, but I know which one I am and I'm not a D-bag. As for you, Brian, I don't know. You're writing things like that on the internet. The world of options is wide open as to which one you are. That's going to do it for us today. Thanks for hanging out with us. Hope you will follow us on Spotify or Apple. We'll see you again next time. You know,
