bro let's go out this weekend there's a crazy event
all right we're back circling back podcast wash media headquarters, Austin, Texas. My name's Will DeFries.
My absolute pleasure to introduce to you Dylan Chivary.
Wow, man.
Without Dave being here, you're forced to introduce me, and it feels really nice.
Really nice.
Even if it's forced, it feels really nice.
So yesterday, I dropped Parks off at the bus stop for Camp Longhorn,
which is where he is now.
And last year when this happened, so they post picture updates every day,
photo drops of kids at camp.
The first two days last summer, on the first two days,
he was crying in each pick.
Just super homesick.
I felt terrible.
I'm happy to report that the first photo the first photo dump has been posted and he is smiling. That's big. That's big. He's got a picture here with the
whole squad is his bunk mates just looking happy. And so his dad, that makes his dad happy. And
we're, we're, we're off to a good start. My mom's going to kill me for telling this story
because she is a backer. She has not transitioned over to the dumb zone yet, but she'll get there eventually, I think.
Because we're going to make those dumb fucks laugh.
You guys are going to love us by the end of this.
And so my parents set me up.
My dad was a big camp guy growing up.
My sister went to camp the entire summer.
And my parents decided that it was probably good to send, you know, fancy boy Will to camp,
toughen him up a little bit, get him off the golf course, get him away from playing wave race
constantly. And so they told me that one of my best friends was going to camp with me
for two weeks. And leading up to it, we didn't really talk about it. I didn't like the idea of
going to camp. The day before I was like, dude, I really don't want to go to camp tomorrow. My buddy's like, I'm not going to camp. I was
like, what? He goes, dude, no, I canceled a long time ago. I'm not going. I was like, oh,
so my parents just didn't tell me. They didn't tell me. They knew about it? Yeah. And so I just
put my foot down. I was like, I'm not going to camp. My dad was like, you're going to camp.
Like, did not want to, did not even want to have the conversation uh and my mom was just like you can't we can't send him look at him he's beside himself you can't
do this and uh it caused the biggest fight in the history of my parents per them uh the fact that i
wouldn't go to camp and they never even attempted after that they did make me get a job though yeah
it was it was soon after i think the next summer is when I was scrubbing tubs of whitefish chowder.
Dude, like – so he's nine.
He went when he was eight.
Like that's intimidating.
Oh, yeah.
Away from your parents.
He didn't know – by the way, didn't know a soul at camp.
Like that's hard stuff.
As a kid, I couldn't have done that.
No.
It is so good for him though.
The kid needs to toughen up a bit,
learn some independence.
You know what I mean?
Oh, dude, I was the least independent kid of all time.
Yeah.
I didn't do anything.
I hated...
I remember one time we were switching...
You know in church when they'd send you to the kids' stuff?
I don't remember what they called it.
Just like kids' school.
The rainbow room?
Like, whatever.
It'd just be like, all right, now the kids can go do their thing
and they don't have to sit through the sermon.
I remember one time they were like, oh, yeah,
you're going to the classroom that's like three down now.
You've switched.
And I just buckled.
I was like, I can't go three down.
This is my classroom.
I was very similar.
My family moved after my second grade year.
Or maybe it was my first grade.
I can't remember.
Anyway, I had to make all new friends
at a brand new school.
And I was just like terrified.
Terrified.
Like, I don't know anybody here.
No, no.
I was such a P.
Parks has a little bit of that in him,
but he's tougher than I am.
And stuff like this is so good for him.
My number one thing is going to make sure,
I want to make sure that my kids are not like I was
because it was crippling anxiety. And I think I still like reap the benefits of that today.
I still don't like – even now I don't like going to big events where I don't know anybody.
Yeah.
I'll cancel before going to like an event where I was like invited to that I feel like I should go.
It's a really bad thing.
Parks has a lot of personality but if you're just meeting him for the first time, you would never guess because he's just super shy and shut down around people he doesn't know very well.
That's kids.
Anyway, I'm stoked.
He's having a good time, hopefully.
I'm not sending him off to military camp.
We could do that, though.
This is like a paradise for kids.
Should we do that to him?
I don't think so.
So who won in the end, your mom or your dad?
Did you go to camp that year?
I did not go to camp.
My mom won.
There's part of me that regrets not going to camp but i also think that my parents really should have never uh tried
to deceive me in that way i think they would deny trying to deceive me at this point in life like
i'm gonna get a phone call later today from my mom being like that's not how it went down but
that's definitely how it went down like that's a hundred percent what happened but i don't know
i like the idea of summer
camp. Did you guys ever watch Bug... You never watched
Bug Juice. Did you ever watch Bug Juice, Randy?
It sounds really familiar, but I
don't remember it as one.
I remember Heavyweights.
That's one of the...
Bug Juice,
which in hindsight, I think this is actually
fucked up to do. Bug Juice was a
reality show set at a kid's summer camp where they would, like, follow the kids around and stuff.
Reality show?
A little weird.
Huh.
Like, maybe we don't need camera crews at kids' camps and stuff.
That's a little strange.
Heavyweights is all time.
Yeah.
And that camp is cool as fuck until What's-His-Face took it over.
They did fun stuff.
You mean White Goodman,
aka, or the same exact character?
Same character, yeah.
Randy, you've considered doing an adult summer camp.
Yeah, Camp No Counselors,
and I'm still thinking about it, too.
It's just, they had a really good thing going right before COVID,
and now they've scaled back
to only doing New York and California camps,
but they're doing them all over the country,
and it looked awesome. What is it? I wanted to it do is it like outdoor like remote outdoor like by lake style
camp it's pretty much i think it's just like a summer camp that like except everyone hooks up
and does drugs and stuff pretty much it's only one weekend it's all inclusive like it's a long
weekend and it has all the summer camp things has the blob all these things i mean like set up in
companies that sounds like a lot of fun.
I could never go to something like that alone
and make friends there,
but it would be really fun to get eight people together
and be like, all right, we're going to adult summer camp.
If you and your boy became single right before summer
and you're in your late 20s, yeah.
Yeah, let's try it.
Let's fucking, let's run it.
Let's let it rip.
Can you drink there?
You drink and stuff? Yeah, it's 21 and up Let's fucking, let's run it. Let's let it rip. Can you drink there? Like you drink and stuff?
Yeah, it's 21 and up.
Everyone's just hooking up.
Yeah, yeah, that's.
I think in their like initial video,
they're like, we don't promote relationships,
but you know, what happens, happens.
But you're adults and you're drinking
and you're staying in a camp
and you're in bathing suits all day.
Like you're going to hook up.
Yeah.
So I still want to do it.
Okay, okay okay you should
yeah i kind of forgot about that idea i don't have it in me no i'm not gonna force fritz to go to
camp but i i will encourage it if he shows any interest yeah i was really worried that after
how things went last summer he wouldn't want to go back and when i first asked him like after
picking him up he's like no i don't think i want to go back then a month later he's like what are you thinking man he's like i kind of want to go back again i
think if you go if you go once i think you get the bug yeah my sister ended up going for three
months out of the summer like the entire time wow and your boy was feasting on that desktop
computer in the office like it not not arguing with my sister it was like the greatest thing ever
but i do wish he was around during the summer sometimes.
Just wearing that lime wire out.
Oh, dude.
Oh, yeah.
Like it probably ran a thousand times slower when she got back from summer camp because I just had everything on there.
Yeah.
I wish I got to go as a kid.
I went as a high schooler to running camp.
It was for the cross-country kids.
So it was summer camp.
But in the mornings, they did like runs and stuff.
But, man, it's been so cool doing it as a kid i did i did one camp uh called t bar m i don't know
some people have heard of it i'm sure it's a it's a christian camp um i hated it not because it was
not the christian element to it i just i didn't just i don't i don't know it's not it wasn't my
scene i had fun in spurts but it was like man i just want to go home i think
a lot of the summer camps up in the midwest were very christian they are so i probably would have
not enjoyed that i wouldn't have joined that my buddies went to like an extreme sports camp
that was also like christian based and they were like i think they went thinking it was going to
be like have you ever heard of camp woodward it's like we're all it's like it used to be like the
it might still be a big deal but it used to be like the big place where everybody would go like get really good and they'd have really good coaches
there and you could it was just tight it's like the dream summer camp if you skateboarded or
whatever any extreme sports and uh like they yeah they went to the summer camp and they're like yeah
it was cool but like we did way more like church stuff than anything and then i was like yeah i'm
not going to skateboard camp i don't want to do that.
Yeah.
I'm 13 years old.
We would sit around on like blankets and just do like Bible study stuff.
And I just wasn't into it.
I was like,
man,
there's a zip line right here.
Can we just go do that?
There's a freaking zip line.
Can we go do that?
Hey,
we've got a loaded episode and we have a lot of announcements.
The meetup in Chicago is less than a month away, Randy.
It's next week.
It's not this weekend.
It's next weekend in Chicago.
It really sneaked up, man.

Tony P in D.C. is going to show up.
You see Tony P's Father's Day post yesterday with his dad?
I missed it.
I don't follow Tony. It makes total sense that he turned out the way he did.
Okay.
Like, there's a video at the end of the post where he and his dad are dancing together,
and it's like, yup.
Is he just a carbon copy of his old man?
Oh, dude, it's hilarious.
Like, I didn't really see it until I got to the video where they were dancing, and it
was like, yup, he's cut from that same cloth.
Yeah, happy belated Father's Day to all the daddies out there.
For sure, dude.
Let's do this Father's Day in fun, shall we?
Let's do it.
Bro, let's go out this weekend.
There's a crazy event happening.
I'd like to turn up.
Bro, bro, bro, there's a crazy event happening.
Let's just go have fun and let's go with it.
Let's go.
Recapping this weekend in fun.
Presented by our friends at Roback.
We just put in a giant Roback order.
We did. Their American Summer Collection just dropped and there's a lot of heat in the hopper
um i have to say i'm very excited to receive some children's polos for my boys they have a new
tailwind performance tee and they sent me one a few months back and it is i'm not this is no
no cap whatsoever the softest piece of attire that i owned are you
glazing this tia it's unbelievable they they they have the tech tees they've had those out for a
while and those are also soft but nothing like this tailwind performance it's unbelievable i
have to say the color selection of this is just beautiful i know i, I know. Just beautiful. That's facts.
We also got in some of their swim trunks recently, and they have some goaded liners.
It's an appropriate length of swim trunk.
They're good looking, and it's just as high quality
as pretty much everything else Roebuck does.
I love it.
And of course, they have over 300 polos available.
That might be a modest estimate.
If you can't find a polo you like,
then you just don't like polos.
If you want 20% off your Roebuck order, use Washed't like polos. If you want 20% off your Roback order, use Washed
20. Again, Washed 20
for 20% off of your order
at Roback.com.
Dylan, what did you get into this weekend?
Thanks for asking.
Friday, pretty low-key. Hung out with
Chels. Nice little
quiet night.
And we did step out, actually, for
Pine House Pizza. Wow! We did step out actually for Pine House Pizza wow
hot honey
didn't do the hot honey
imagine dipping
a pizza roll and some hot honey
oh man
that's dangerous
Saturday
big family day big
the little guy and I went to my dad's house where That's dangerous. Saturday, big family day, big.
The little guy and I went to my dad's house where my sister and brother-in-law and my two little nieces were hanging out.
We just vibed all day, had a couple cocktails and spent the night over there.
It was a fun family day.
What was the nectar of choice?
Margarita.
Wow.
Rocks.
How original. Margarita on the rocks and a couple of frosty
boys as well. You were just talking about doing some at-home margaritas, some frozen Johns. I
have a question about this. Yeah. Are you blending these in a normal blender? Yeah. Is it a high-end
blender? It's a Vitamix. Oh, okay. Okay. So yeah. Okay. Because I was going to say, the reason I
don't, we don't have a nice blender at all. And so I never even think
about doing frozen margaritas at home.
Chelsea's been in the lab
just trying to concoct
the perfect frozen marg.
And she's doing a damn fine job of it.
Dude, we need to have a party
where we get everyone together
because Sally's on her spritz grind right now
just trying to test out
every single spritz known to man.
Yeah.
And I think we just need to have,
I think we need to have
an end of summer thing
where everyone brings their best concoctions to the table.
Then for Father's Day Sunday, I took the little man to the bus stop,
the bus pickup area at the mall actually is where it was,
and I saw the little guy.
I didn't cry this time.
I cried last year.
You wanted to.
I cried last year.
His mom did cry.
She told me.
Big time, big stepping for the little guy.
I almost cried seeing your Instagram story.
It was so sad just watching.
There he goes, man.
Hope he's okay.
And he will be.
Do you ever worry like the second he gets on the bus, he just looks around and doesn't know where to sit and just gets intimidated?
He's going to sprint off?
Because that would be my fear every single time yeah so they were about to
leave and the door is still open so i walked up to the the bus driver who was standing outside
i said can i go say bye real quick he goes yeah yeah i walk up there and he's he's 30 he's three
rows in i'm sitting on the right side he doesn't have a a seat mate his next seat next to him is
empty and they all a lot of these kids be fair, they know each other already.
Yeah.
So like,
he was one of the only ones
like not sitting next to someone,
but he makes friends fast.
I'm not,
I wasn't worried about that.
But it is like,
man,
I hope this goes well.
Yeah, yeah.
I hope this goes well.
The rest of the day,
I went out to go see Chelsea
and we did that
nice little pool day.
Little pool charcuterie?
Little pool day.
She made some poolside charcut which was great
and then she made me just an incredible father's day meal i that i feel like i didn't deserve she
made surf and turf for me and she knocked it out of why don't you deserve it's father's day you're
a good dad like i don't really understand why big gift basket for me too and it's like
man she's she's a real one dude that's what's solid it's a great it was a great weekend overall how about you i didn't i tried to keep it low-key this weekend i didn't really um friday was a
pretty much a wash um just kind of wanted to do absolutely nothing just wanted to to hang at the
crib and that's exactly what your boy did uh have i'm just deep into love island right now
shout out to the uk uh saturday saturday was the day it's been a long
time since i've hung out with producer micah i famously missed his st patrick's day party and
it still pains me to this day that's right uh but i got a i got a nice dinner invite from producer
micah we went to uchiko a nice sushi nice sushi place down from where we live.
And Dylan, I've got some really tough news to report to you
regarding my Uchiko experience.
The service was incredible.
No more gaitoro bite?
The food was amazing.
We ordered four gitoros to finish out the meal.
What's the bad news?
For anyone out there who doesn't know what this is,
if you ever go to Austin, you ever go to Uchi or Uchiko
or whatever restaurant group has the restaurants,
they have this bite called the Gitoro,
and it's this piece of steak that's been sous-vided for like 72 hours.
Isn't it like A5?
Yeah, it's like A5 Wagyu.
It's $12 for each piece of sushi.
For a bite.
One bite.
But it's so good that like you borderline can't go there
and not get it because it's just so good. And they run out of it. So you kind of have to order it,
get it done. I ordered it. We got it. And so the way that you eat this, the best way to eat this
is by flipping it over onto your tongue, which is apparently how you're supposed to eat all sushi.
I learned recently. Okay. And you're supposed to flip it over on your tongue so you can let
it melt on your tongue. And it truly does melt. I picked it up and it immediately fell apart on me because of
a fumble that I had made, not the construction of it. I panicked and I just shoved it all in my
mouth. And it was just this ball of rice and meat and it tasted good, but I didn't get the full
experience. And it broke my heart because the last time we went there, they were out out of it and it's been a year since i've had a good one considering there are
usually months go by between those bites yeah you can't fumble it like that i fumbled the wagyu dude
damn it's unbelievable fumbled the wagyu i ended up listening to records until 1 a.m that night
i usually don't do that i just didn't want to go to bed. What's so funny, Randy?
You're so mad. I can't even go to sleep.
I just sat there. Father's Day was the day. Woke up. Sally had gotten me a nice coffee to my liking. She had gotten some pastries, some balloons that said world's best dad.
I don't know if we can prove that. It seems tough to prove.
But it was pretty good.
It's subjective.
I ended up playing golf out at Spanish Oaks and shot an ugly 92.
Just a bad 92.
Triple bogeys were just my – they were just killing me yesterday.
Had one single birdie.
It was on the first hole.
No one birdied the rest of the day.
Hot as hell out there.
Unfortunately, the barbecue station was shut down. You guys know how much I love that barbecue taco out there. It was just devastating, but had a great time. Got home. I had a dinner
that's much opposite of what you did for Father's Day. I didn't get surf and turf, Dylan. We did
mushroom pot pie. So we've been buying these pies from this lady who uh who sells them out of a parking
lot okay and they're really good like they're really they're really really good that was the
mushroom one i thought it was going to be like i thought it was going you know like beef bourguignon
do you know what that is like the the beef stew dish almost people make it with mushrooms it's like it's almost like a it's
like i imagined it to be like a mushroom stew inside of a pot pie and it was just a chicken
pot pie with mushrooms instead of chicken and i was like well that makes sense so i went i went
pot pie on them pot pies how i got i got really fat in college though so i need to like really
be careful but if you're not buying pot pies from some lady in a parking lot like what are you doing facts just go do it i'm intrigued maybe i'll copy one next time where are they
where's the parking lot i don't even know really far away from where we live it's like a 30 minute
drive from where we live okay it's really annoying oh but yeah it was pretty pretty good weekend
honestly probably the best father's day i've ever had mine was mine was pretty solid too despite not
not gonna spend most of it with the little guy yeah your boys just straight up put on a pedestal it's a beautiful
thing what's all about man next week on order chicago we will be doing our meetup with our
friends over at mugsy mugsy makes damn comfortable clothing for guys everywhere they started by
reinventing the jeans game in 2015 and now they make the best jeans chinos and joggers and tops ever

that it's the downtown location downtown okay street is called armitage i believe yep armitage
uh armitage location we will be there from five to seven next friday there will be an on-site code that you can use in store for, I believe, 20% off.
Yeah.
So stop by, make it happen.
These guys work exclusively with some of the best designers and manufacturers around the
world to deliver the finest quality fabric straightly to your door.
We love their stuff.
Their entire goal is making guys more comfortable at work, at the bar, on the course, wherever,
by giving them one place to shop.
Made with buttery soft patented stretch materials
that look stylish but are insanely comfortable.
They're never too baggy, never too tight.
Y'all know I'm not a denim guy normally.
Once I put those Muggsy's on, it changed everything.
It was like, oh wait, jeans can be actually comfortable on my body.
They're so great.
It's beautiful.
We even swim in them.
I wear them all the time.
First time customers can get 20% back on their first order right now.

So the only risk is not knowing how great they truly are.
And again, Muggsy happy hour.
We're doing 20% off in-store Friday, June 28th from 5 to 6.30.
Come join us.
I'm sure there's going to be some refreshments and good times had. Oh yeah. U S open was yesterday. I watched more of this
U S open than I think I've watched of any golf tournament in the last or any major in the last,
like forever. This is one of the more entertaining, uh, non-masters majors I've watched in a long
time from a course perspective from the
leaderboard like there was just a lot going on and it was really fun this was like the first time
in a long time that i've watched a course just being like thank god i never have to play this
right now it is nice to watch the best golfers in the world be absolutely humbled by a golf course
which is what we saw over the weekend like just seeing like a guy like over just like going back and forth
on a green, like it's just like, okay, okay.
You saw that throughout the entire, I mean, just kicking it back and forth
on the other side of the green in the bunker.
They'd stick one that you thought was going to hang up there
and just see it fall off the green 15 yards off.
It's just insane golf course.
My father-in-law stopped by our place Saturday while I was watching, and he had played it somewhat recently.
And so I started just peppering him with questions about the course and stuff.
And once he gave me like the certain holes to look out for and everything, it became really entertaining for me to watch and see because I just had a different perspective based on what he was saying.
But it just made it fun. The U S women's open was a couple of weeks
ago and that was on a really hard course where balls were falling off the green. And that's the
most I've watched of anything. I think they just need impossible courses for me to like, love
watching it at this point. Have you ever played a golf course like this one where there's essentially
there's no rough off the fairway. It's just goes just goes from perfect plush grass of the fairway
to native area,
which is like you're hitting out of sand
and there are weeds and grass.
I've never played a course like that.
I can't imagine the pressure teeing off
knowing that if you don't stick the fairway,
which runs, by the way,
then you're hitting out of shit every single time.
Yeah. I'll take your medicine. You ever played a course like that before?
No, no. The heart, like honestly, the hardest course I've ever played was, uh, when we played,
you didn't play, you gave your, you gave your spot to Dan Regester, but we played a sawgrass,
not the TPC course, but sawgrass country club. I forget what it's called, but we played sawgrass
and the greens were rolling at like a 14 that day. And I was putting, it was the first time
I'd ever been on a course where I was putting numerous balls off the green. And it was just
like, this isn't fun anymore. That was a mosquito round.
That was the skeeter round. Yeah. Yeah. Anytime you are covered in mosquitoes,
when you're setting up to hit your drive on the tee box, it's not a fun round to begin with. But
then when you're, we walked in and the starter looked at us and he was just like how'd you roll him out there and we were like
dude those are the hardest greens i've ever played and he goes yep they're at a 14 right now we're
like oh cool dude yeah cool yeah we made it impossible for you guys hope you had fun yeah
yeah it was a really good time dude where do you stand on bryson right now um i still think he is a chotch but he's becoming
a somewhat of a likable chotch and i don't know what he's i can't even like put my finger on what
he's done to win me over um maybe he just like owns who he is and he's just like a self-aware
chotch but i don't hate him like i
used to hate him he just i don't like i don't like him but i don't hate him i think i like him
like he okay he's made some weird moves in the past he's he's been very polarizing and you can
make fun of him a lot there's a million things you can make fun of the guy for and i think he
knows that at this i still have the rope incident just ingrained in my in my brain what was the rope incident again he was he was crossing crossing a rope um and someone was holding it for
him and it slipped out of their hand so it snapped down and it caught him caught him like under the
chin and he he went like that and he his react he overreacted times a million he goes he was like
come on guys then he it was like he got sniped he just hit the deck it's like dude get up he was just i think he was just super embarrassed and he took it out on
yeah i was holding the rope and it was just a really really bad look yeah i mean like there's
i saw a lot of tweets this weekend about people saying like he's clearly taken some sort of media
training he's clearly changed the way that he's approaching being in the public eye.
And I think those things are maybe true,
but it's working and I kind of enjoy it.
Like seeing him signing autographs
mid final round of the US Open is awesome.
Yeah.
Like seeing how he has embraced...
The Lyft stuff too, by the way.
It still bothers me.
But like, okay, the Lyft stuff is very,
that's very justified.
When we were talking about him yesterday, Sally said, she's like, well, wasn't one of the reasons that people didn't like him was because of the Brooks drama with him?
And I was like, yeah.
But I feel like that was all started by Brooks just heaving stuff at Bryson and Bryson having to respond in a way.
And it was during the Liv time when everybody was real hot about hating on Liv golfers.
And like, it was just kind of not great but like he's just he's so likable right now and he the sand
shot he hit on 18 was so big nuts that i was immediately just like okay like at that point
before he hit that sand shot i was like rory blew this like rory totally blew it and i still think
that rory did blow it but to hit a sand shot like that on 18 at the U.S. Open in that situation
when no one's gotten up and down all weekend.
Yeah, I was thinking, oh, we're going to see a playoff.
Yeah, we were in the group text talking, like,
they got rid of the next day playoff format for the U.S. Open, right?
Yeah, it'll be immediate.
Like, okay, let's do this.
Yeah.
And when he hit that, it was just like, okay, not only did Rory blow it,
but somehow Bryson simultaneously just won
this thing by doing that granted he put himself in a bad position unreal shot it was just cool
his his stiff arm uh putting style bothers me too i've never seen anybody do putt like that
i hate just completely locked elbows do you think he's onto something in general when it comes to
equipment or do you think this is like he's still they're all the same length still all of his clubs
yeah i don't know man like i feel like he might be onto something and he like it's possible he
could change the game in this way but like also people can't just be making adjustments at the
clip that he does does anyone else do that i don't know amateur golfers who have tried this i don't
know but i don't have i don't have some deep like knowledge these days so i don't know. Do you have any amateur golfers who have tried this? I don't know, but I don't have some deep knowledge these days,
so I don't know how common it is.
He designs his own club face and club head.
Let's say he went on some generational run
where he started winning everything.
Would people start acclimating to what he's doing
and trying to do it and adjusting their clubs like that?
Because I would start to consider it.
There has to be other people out there who are trying this.
But to even try it, you would have to go to like –
you have to get custom clubs made for yourself.
And that's a huge investment.
And what if you don't like it?
Maybe you can just go try them somewhere.
I don't know where you would go to try like same length clubs.
It's weird.
He is – he's very innovative obviously.
I'd like to give Brett props.
I was in a draft where I got to draft any golfer – not any golfer, but whatever.
I was the last pick in our draft, and it's a short draft,
and I drafted Bryson based on Brett's pick.
I got to Venmo.
I told Brett that I would be paying him a certain percentage of the winnings.
Should he win?
Yep.
Good for you.
He got to Venmo last night.
Good for you.
Very happy about that.
Rory, is he – how long is this going to stick with Rory?
Forever.
He hadn't won a major in what?
It's been like, what, 13 years?
It's been a while.
13 years, I want to say.
And to have a chance like that at the end, he was –
10 years.
He had, what, like a two-stroke lead down the stretch?
He won the PGA Championship at Valhalla 10 years ago.
10 years.
Okay.
Yeah, like his MO right now is like the dude just doesn't close during majors.
Yippee vibes.
And so this is – hopefully he has short memory syndrome with this one
and he can put this behind him, but that's a tough one to get past.
I legitimately feel bad for Rory.
When they cut to him after Bryson made the putt to win,
it was just devastating.
He got roasted for flying off the property in a car which have you seen the video of him actually
leaving yeah i didn't think it was that i did he drove away the video of him walking to the car
is not as bad as people like there was one tweet that went viral where people were saying oh he
threw his clubs in the back of the car and sped out like he was walking very under control to the
car he backed out at a pretty normal pace he had cameras all around he couldn't exactly scream out He threw his clubs in the back of the car and sped out. Like he was walking very under control to the car.
He backed out at a pretty normal pace.
He had cameras all around.
He couldn't exactly scream out of the parking lot.
I can't imagine being Rory.
You've had to go through all the live PGA tour stuff.
I would have left too, by the way.
You've been spurned by everybody at the PGA tour. Like you were the face of this whole thing.
And now you are a guy who is dealing with public drama surrounding your divorce you just blew the
u.s open and you're getting killed for not doing any media or sticking around at the tournament
that just broke your heart i i can see both sides of the argument i get why he would just get the
fuck out of there i do think that i do think that he should have probably stuck around maybe and just been there.
But that was heartbreak.
He blew it so bad that I'm not going to blame a guy
for doing what he did.
I saw a stat that he – it was a three-foot putt that he missed.
He was like –
What, 494 for 494?
Yeah.
Yeah, and his last putt'sts inside three feet and for that to be
the one yeah just tough yeah i feel bad for worry i do too not not not the best look and i don't
blame him for getting out of there i would the last thing i would want to do is is have a camera
in my face and answer questions about the putt i feel like you have to though yeah i feel like you have to but
i get it is there um and other sports like you are fined for not not going to press conferences
tron from nlu had a kind of a threat about it and he said like tiger sticks or tiger stuck around
savvy stuck around things like that um and all the like if if you're in the nba and you skip
fine you get a fine, yeah.
So,
same goes for MLB,
NFL. I'm kind of surprised
the PGA Tour
doesn't have a fine
for skipping media.
If there's no fine,
I'm out of there.
Yeah,
that's true,
that's true.
But if,
yeah,
just,
even if there is,
he can afford to be fined anyway,
but,
oh yeah,
I guess that's,
that's where I'm,
is that where I'm just here
so I don't get fined came in?
Yeah.
Or is that like,
is that a training camp thing?
It's a real,
it's a real,
he would have been fined
if he didn't show up for the press conference the interview yeah it's very much a
thing you have to show up and answer but you don't have to give them answers so he had to sit there
and like respond and like be there so it's just like yeah i'm just here so i don't get fired and
then just moved into you know why i'm here would it be fun to do those interviews not after a
heartbreaking loss like rory's but would it be fun to do media uh? Not after a heartbreaking loss like Rory's, but would it be fun to do media at some point?
I think after you get some reps under your belt,
you get comfortable in front of the cameras.
Some of the guys have a lot of fun with it.
They have a personality.
You get to know all the people in the locker room.
You start to know the personalities.
I feel like you can kind of mess around a little bit.
I think it'd be fun.
I'm not sure if golf has the same fine.
And plus, this isn't a PGA Tour event.
This is a USGA event. I don't know. I don't know how it works. You want to talk raw doggy?
What kind? Flights. Oh yes. I don't know what kind of other. Right. I don't either. Yeah.
Not really familiar. Brett in the office the other day asked, what's the longest flight you're
willing to raw dog? And I was like, what are you talking about? Like, what? Okay. Sure enough, he was talking about a viral tweet where a guy posted a photo of himself
on a flight. He appears to be in general economy, even though the seats look very comfortable in
this. Maybe he's not in general economy. He might be in a little upgrade. It might be an upgrade
situation. But it said, just raw dogged a seven-hour hour flight new personal best no headphones no movie
no water nothing no water incredible the power of the mind knows no bounds okay sitting stationary
for seven hours is not something to be applauded uh that being said this is psychotic to me
the no water thing that that was a bathroom break play he didn't want it to get off
he he just wanted to rot like he raw dog to the point of not even unbuckling so i have a like a two hour threshold
for flights i will i will raw dog two hours and under i don't i don't plan on it going in but i'm
like that's two hours i can just like zone out and i usually don't even do music or anything i don't
know why okay it's not a reason for it's not insane two hours is like pretty short flight but i can't sleep on flights i feel like if i don't have my kids on a flight i
need to take that time to like watch something that i don't have time to watch at home and enjoy
stuff i have no desire to raw dog any flights the only time i ever do it is when i take a 45
minute flight when it's like from like detroit Detroit up to Harbor Springs or Austin to Dallas.
I'll raw dog those,
but going no headphones, no movie, no water
just to prove a point of how strong your mind is,
I'm not that impressed.
That's so long to just not have anything
to stimulate your brain.
This guy is also wearing an Ed Hardy hat.
Is he just doing a bit?
Why are you so proud of being bored?
Maybe he didn't actually do this and just wanted to go viral.
I still am interested, but if you're a backer,
I want to know how many, if you're a raw dogger,
there's people out there who just don't listen to music anyway.
We had an intern at Grand X,
and we all got free tickets to Lollapalooza,
and I was leaving the office, and I was like,
why are you still here?
I'm the second to last person in the office.'re the last person here why aren't you going he just
looked at me ACL yeah sorry so Lollapalooza ACL and I looked at him and he just goes no I don't
really listen to music like okay okay okay it's like Brett doesn't watch uh TV movies movies yeah
my friend Mikey doesn't watch movies either he hates films it's like
they're they're so great they're so entertaining i i i have to say since covid i don't watch nearly
as many movies as i used to i just don't like i just i just do tv shows i'm on a big movie kick
right now i wish i was i don't do it i haven't even finished hitman yet i started a week ago i watched the sting over the weekend it's just insane to me you two that
like you guys can start a movie and not finish it the only time i don't finish the movie is when it
doesn't finish on the flight and i have to go finish it at home randy i need you to understand
yeah yeah yeah i'm tired man i'm fucking tired okay well you could have finished the movie
instead of you of listening to records
to one in the morning.
Sometimes I fall asleep.
Last night I watched a movie
and I fell asleep like 45 minutes ago
and I was really enjoying the movie.
I just couldn't keep my eyes open.
Part of the reason we don't watch movies
is because I will pitch putting on a movie
and Sally will say,
no, you're going to fall asleep.
Let's watch a TV show.
And I look at her and I say, fair point.
It's a good point.
Fair point.
Yeah.
I don't think I'm like,
I think I'm just falling asleep at a dad rate at this point no but i kind of raw dog i as soon as i get through security headphones in and i'm not talking to anyone until i'm off
that flight you do headphones before you board the flight like oh i've become i've become head
if i'm standing in line at southwest i put my headphones on and i stand right there and the reason I do it is because I don't want to have the conversation with everybody going,
oh, what number are you?
What number are you?
I'm like, just get in line.
You have a one in, like out of all the five people in your little section,
are you really going to be that affected by the two other people in front of you?
Unless you're in C, like early, late Bs, early C, you know.
I like, I like airport vibes, uh, departing, not returning.
I mean, I like to get to my gate, sit there, and people watch.
There's my water at my side.
I got a snack going.
I time my bathroom break right before time to board.
I like the airport vibe.
I do too.
I like showing up early.
I like sitting there.
I like doing whatever.
And I like having the time.
I like people walk by.
I'm like, I wonder where they're going.
Sally likes to walk straight through security and onto the plane.
And it stresses me out more than anything in the world. I don't understand how people do this. I'm not, I wonder where they're going. Sally likes to walk straight through security and onto the plane. And it stresses me out more than anything in the world.
I don't understand how people do this.
I'm not built that way.
No, I want to get there.
I want to maybe get a little nibble of food.
I don't drink coffee on flights or even in the airport
because I don't want to have to go to the bathroom in that style.
Well, you got to check to make sure your gate exists, though.
Oh, yeah.
Make sure there's an actual gate.
Oh, yeah.
Okay, 18, 19.
Oh, there's 20.
I can go get my my snack okay
yep we're good we're good make sure it exists i've banned myself why is that a thing it is
more of us checking into we know where it is there it is so if like the flights mother go like oh we
know but i also check to make sure that i i missed a flight one time because they changed the gate
and i had headphones on so now i just make sure that the board says wherever I'm going. Yeah. I don't, I don't, I don't buy magazines in airports anymore. I've refused. I don't,
I'm not paying that price. I don't need physical media in the airport.
Honestly, if I'm parking at the airport, it's, it's headphones. As soon as I get out of my car,
I'll take them out at security and then put them back in just music and podcasts. Just,
I still look at the people watching stuff. Like you said, with the gate changing thing,
I need to know what's going on around when I'm
in an airport. I can't completely zone in inside my own brains. I feel like I'm missing too much.
When Sally and I first started dating, we were flying to Michigan and my flight was sold out.
So she took a flight that was getting in at the same time. And she hadn't met none of my friends.
She had not met my parents. And she boarded her flight and they had changed my gate to a gate across the
airport. And I didn't realize it until five minutes before the flight was supposed to board.
And so I had to sprint across this airport, which took me 15 minutes and sprint on the plane,
pouring sweat, just being like, this girl is going to break up with me because I just sent
her to my hometown in Northern Michigan. And she's going to be there for an entire night without me.
And I was just like, it's over. I somehow got on the plane, but it was like, what are you doing?
Don't put your headphones on right before the flight's going to go.
Seven-hour raw dog is insane.
It's stupid.
This guy's moving crazy.
That's so stupid.
Yeah.
I once read for seven straight hours on a flight home from London when we went to Italy.
It was the weirdest thing I've ever done.
I've never read for seven hours straight.
I did it one other time time and I took Adderall
and that's why I did it.
I read the whole way when I went to Europe.
I read the whole way from,
I think it was Washington to Paris
is where we flew from.
I read that whole way,
which is like seven hours probably.
I finished an entire book
and I was like, go off, Will.
I felt so smart.
On the way back, I watched like four movies though
because I flew from Rome to Dallas, which is 12 hours. Well, you can't sleep on the way back i watched like four movies though because i flew from rome to dallas which is 12 hours well you can't sleep on the way back yeah you gotta stay up or
else you're gonna be ruined i told you i was i was and i was on an aisle aisle seat the woman next to
me didn't get up from her seat the entire 12 hour flight dog behavior i was like you're my hero dog
behavior it was incredible i'm a good seat mate i won't get up to pee unless I absolutely have to.
Even if I really have to pee, I'll still just wait until the plane lands and I can go somewhere in the airport.
It's just how I'm built.
They don't make men like me anymore, Dylan.
I'm cut from a different cloth.
This guy's different too, apparently.
Got George Strait throwing the largest concert in American history at Kyle Field at Texas A&M.
How does this make you feel?
Over 100.
I saw him holding up a sign that said over 110,000.
This says 107.
The screenshot that I got, I don't know how official it was, but that's just what I based it on.
I based it on some article.
He was holding up a little piece of paper.
It had handwritten like 110 something.
That's a lot of people.
A big smile on his face.
So how many people?
I guess.
Kyle Field itself holds
102 000 yeah and they had like there were people um they had chairs obviously like on like field
level i'm kind of surprised you can only fit 5 000 people on the field surely you can fit more
than that they said maybe the stands were completely filled up or something did you
know this concert was going on beforehand no i had no clue they knew they had to have known
based on ticket sales before that this was going to be the biggest concert in american history right
surely like why is this not a thing that people in austin are being served and know about like
i feel like i didn't know any of this and i feel like i'm pretty dialed into like concert stuff
was this because i know that texas a&m for their like uh nil fund they were having a george street is this
the nil texas a&m event i don't know if so that's really impressive do you know where george straight
went to college yeah southwest texas i did not know that until right now dude he he started he
got to start at cheatham street which is a bar that
is still open and i used to go to he started playing there i don't think george straight
gets the respect uh in other states that he gets in texas i think he does he's he's his nickname
is the king of country music i know but i i think i think that the respect that he gets in texas
music. I know, but I think that the respect that he gets in Texas is almost unexplainable. It's not even a question that he's the king. Do you think maybe Tennessee people shun him because
he's such a hardcore Texas guy? I don't know if it's a shunning, but I feel like even growing up
when we were listening to a lot of country music, the pop country took over and and like george straight kind of fell by the wayside when it came to playing anything
on the radio in our hometown maybe that's just a very like pocketed thing but like i just i think
that when i moved down here i was like oh fuck people love george straight yeah yeah i i agree
with well now like i i really like him i had a really weird uh i had a i'm not gonna explain
the story but i had a weird event that i needed needed my dad to help me with really bad. And the next day, I just pressed shuffle on a 500
song playlist and a George Strait song about fatherhood started playing, and I just broke
down crying at my desk and I was like, oh my God. He is the king.
That'll happen.
He is the king.
He's the king.
I'm a little bummed about this because the the previous biggest show was
grateful dead i'm surprised that the wreck this is the record i feel like it would be more well
have you seen the concerts that they do in like brazil like when madonna went there they did the
million person concert on the beach that's simply too many people so this is the american record
yeah 110 000 yeah okay yeah so here's a niche Austin question. Why doesn't DKR do concerts?
Is there a reason?
Why doesn't Q2 have concerts?
Like they have one concert a year pretty much,
but why don't,
like,
why am I not on the field at the Q2 stadium?
I just hate when like big thing,
big artists are having stadium tours.
Like,
all right,
I have to go to either Dallas or San Antonio or Houston.
Like Austin has a big stadium. Is it because it's too hot in the summertime and in the wintertime the weather's
too dicey to do it i also think a venue like this is not really set up i mean this this wouldn't
appeal to me as much as it would it would be at like moody center because like the acoustics are
probably not great the seats are probably shit you're so far away from the stage oh for me it's
just too many people
like full stop too many people too many the only the only band that could go get me to watch a
concert with 110 000 people there would be grateful they're dead and company when i saw
justin timberlake at the super bowl not to brag uh it was one of the worst concert experiences
i've ever had in my entire life i couldn't hear him i mean okay, to be fair, the way they had the stage set up,
he was facing one side of the stadium
and I was on the other side, but it was just like,
is he there?
Can I get binoculars out?
He was so far away.
It sounded like shit.
Taylor Swift, Aries tour, Las Vegas, Nevada.
Third tour, halfway through, I looked at Sally
and I said, this sounds like shit.
Like it wasn't that the
music was bad it's just it sounded like shit yeah i mean if if george straight performed at dkr like
you said no doubt about it they could get this many people there but they could no they couldn't
get that many people why because how many people how many seats does dkr have over 100 oh really
it's one of yes it's it's also one of the biggest is that after the upgrade yeah it's it's over 100 000 for sure oh i thought it was under for some reason no it's um it's it's
like i think it's like fifth capacity wise in the country for college football stadiums 100 119 yeah
big out i still think the big house is number or maybe it's like penn state i think it's penn
state actually i could be wrong.
Let's see.
Kyle Field's definitely up there.
Michigan Stadium, 107,000.
Beaver Stadium, Penn State, is 106,000.
Okay, so they're number two.
If you're Penn State, how are you not just adding 1,000 seats?
Why are they Beaver Stadium?
Their mascot's the Nittany Lion.
Why the fuck is it called Beaver stadium i don't know okay i feel like i feel like i'm like
is it called beaver stadium why does it say beaver stadium here are you sure it says penn
state next to that says beaver stadium university park pennsylvania 1960 penn state nittany lions
i don't know maybe it's maybe
this is a they know they're a person named beaver i actively don't watch penn state games like i try
not to because i just don't like penn state and so maybe i just don't know they pretty they play
a pretty boring brand of football but their fans are like they have some excellent fans yeah they
they show up oh yeah no i respect penn state from a uh like uniforms like
their fans are about as good as it gets yeah um but like i just don't i just don't care to watch
them on tv for some reason i get it i don't really have any yeah kyle field's number four
on in ohio state's got number three and what's what's five is it dkr oh yeah i forgot that's
why i pulled up that list they are five let me that tab, Dylan. They might not be if they're...
No.
It's number seven.
Okay.
They got beat out by both Tennessee and LSU.
Tennessee's stadium is cool.
The Swamp in LSU is badass, too, by the way.
I would love to go to literally...
A night game at LSU is really hard to beat.
Really hard to beat.
When's Texas play there?
Not this year, right?
No.
It might be a while.
They're supposed to play during the COVID year, but it got canceled.
I know.
I was definitely going to go to that game.
Yeah.
Like 100% going to go to that game.
That was unfortunate.
It was very unfortunate.
Named after James A. Beaver, the governor of Pennsylvania
and president of the University Board of Trustees.
I had a Mr. Beaver teacher in high school.
I did not.
I just look like one.
How about that?
We solved that one.
Okay.
Yeah.
How did we not...
How is this not more of a thing?
Concerts in stadiums like that?
And just knowing that Beaver Stadium is the name of Penn State Stadium. Oh, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know the names of many stadiums like that? And just knowing that Beaver Stadium is the name of Penn State Stadium.
Oh, I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know the names of many stadiums.
I don't know the names of many college ones, I guess.
I didn't know it was called DKR
until I moved here.
Someone said it, and I was like, what?
Yeah.
Dave drove by.
He's like, yeah, let's go drive by DKR.
We're driving home from a tea time.
And I was like, what are we doing?
Darryl K. Royal Texas Memorial Stadium
is the full name, which is a mouthful.

yes right there this next segment is going to be a little bit of a uh this weekend or this this
week in restaurants um
i tweeted this the other day from circling back but uh dylan are you willing to go to uh
a place where you can get a 1900 wagyu burger oh my god that comes with caviar crab and a custom
cowboy hat what comes with a custom cowboy hat should we start doing this at the dick saloon
how nice is this cowboy hat i mean you got to imagine it's pretty nice if you're paying 1900 for a burger okay 1900 you get a wagyu burger caviar crab and
a cowboy okay so here's here's what the caption says so sally and i got married at the montage
laguna beach it's a hotel in laguna beach this is the montage deer valley so it's there it's
a kind of wintry one oh my god God. It says, burgers and bourbon has introduced
the extravagant 1876 burger experience featuring an A5 Wagyu burger topped with caviar, tempura
king crab, and more for a whopping $1,876. Oh, those big things on there, that's the crab.
Oh, that's the tempura crab, dog. Oh my God. It says the meal includes bourbon, champagne, a cigar, and a custom cowboy hat excursion.
Okay.
I can absolutely see how this would be a draw for a very specific demographic.
There's a hyper-specific demographic that loves this.
It comes with a cigar, too?
I think Bezos would do this.
That cigar's included?
Oh, yeah.
You get it all, dude.
Champagne, bourbon yeah
all that shit okay take away the cowboy hat and the meal itself with all that stuff it's probably a
180 meal i don't know how much if if a bite of a5 wagyu at a sushi restaurant costs 12 dollars how
much is a full patty this isn't a it doesn't equate no one no one's eating a5 wagyu in in
ground beef form.
Correct.
I don't, even if it is A5, if it's in burger form,
I am not giving it credibility.
I think the term Wagyu is thrown around a lot. It doesn't always mean like, you know, cream of the crop.
It's been bastardized.
Top tier.
When I'm at the grocery store and I see something that says Wagyu,
I always think, really?
Yeah, it's that emoji we're like really yeah it's like wagyu is only if it's in the wagyu portion
of france that's what it's yeah correct yeah randy's exactly right uh but this cowboy hat i
mean depending on how nice the cowboy hat is are you are you are you trying to are you justified
considering it's at the montage yeah no no you're you're right. It's probably like, okay, if I'm going to buy a hat anyway, and I'm going to spend over a thousand dollars on a hat,
let's get the full experience. Like I could see how this would appeal to certain people.
Cowboy hats can get out of control expensive. Western hats in general can get out of control
expensive. Like there, I don't know how you did this, but you've actually convinced me that there
might be a world where this is reasonable based on what you're actually getting.
Cause it's like, all right, I'm going to gonna plan this vacation i got a little bit of cash to spend on it and i
know that i need a cowboy hat like let's let's just go let's get the full experience it's gonna
set us back two grand but we're leaving there with a dope cowboy hat and the memory of like
spending all this money on this elaborate meal with a cigar and bourbon and champagne and caviar too.
Caviar is expensive.
I didn't account for that
in my estimate.
Oh yeah,
if you go to Central Market right now
and you go to the caviar section,
it's like,
it's wild.
It's probably really good bourbon.
Probably really good bourbon.
You know?
You want to do this so bad.
Dude,
let's do a burger challenge.
I could just see how like
under the right circumstances,
I could be convinced.
You know what I hate about this?
The one thing that I really fucking hate that makes me mad i don't like the gold flakes on the bun oh i know i'm not okay oh i see that now like yeah that's it took me a while but i don't need
gold flakes on anything that's just an excuse to upcharge you an astronomical amount correct it
doesn't do anything to the actual food when When Sally and I, we didn't do it
last year, but we did it the year before. We would go out to the hotel where we got married and
stay there for the weekend and just make a weekend out of it. And every day we had a $150 credit
to use at the resort for food. And so for lunch, we could just know, all right, we can go off and
have a good lunch, whatever. Unfortunately for us, it rained and it was windy the entire time that we were there.
And so on the final day of the trip, I looked at Sally and I said, I'm using $150 credit.
I'm going to the bar.
She's like, what are you going to get?
And I said, I'm getting, they have a thing of Pappy Van Winkle there for $125.
And with tip, I can get it for free.
And she looked at me and I was like, she's going to deny this.
I guess that's probably a good way of doing it.
Wow.
And so I was like, okay, I'm going to go buy something ridiculous.
And it was a great way.
I was like, you know what?
I'm glad I did this.
Because a chicken sandwich wouldn't have moved the needle very much.
Yeah.
Like if this is something you plan for and it's not like – no one looks at the menu
and like, oh, I could do this and get a cowboy hat.
Like you plan for this.
If anyone's ever been to like Aspen, like the big thing to do for a lot of people is
to go to their like really popular hat place yeah kimosabe and people spend crazy
amounts on hats there yeah but it's hard not to for people like if you're in aspen you already
know you're gonna get killed on price for everything like it's it's such an experience
in there that i get how people get wound up and it's like suddenly it's like how did i just spend
all this money on a hat do they come up with a custom hat they come up and like measure your hat while you're at the dinner table or you
measure your head do that be kind of tight and they just make it like it's table side hat making
i was i was so scared we went to keep wasabi that i like i didn't even want to go off they might
roll that that steam machine up to your table and do it all right there which would be fucking cool
like really cool that would actually be watching the guy make my hat by hand
was a really fun experience see i i didn't get like the full custom would actually be watching the guy make my hat by hand was a really
fun experience see i i didn't get like the full custom experience i did like the cheapest possible
kimo sabe thing you could do mainly mainly because i didn't want to spend the money on it and i knew
that i wouldn't wear this hat all that often but like they did when they were steaming it and like
shaping it and doing all that i was like this yeah when i got my hat from allen's they when i bought it was the the brim was completely flat
and had like a dome top and he did he formed everything by hand and i thought it was really
cool to watch him do it that's cool if they did that table side while you're eating this
ridiculous burger that you can't you can't fit in your mouth by the way you got to like take it
apart to eat this is like the most retail fun this is the most retail therapy feeling circling
back segment
where we've somehow justified spending $1,900 on a burger and a cowboy hat.
And you walk away smoking a fat stogie with your cowboy hat.
I don't think I need to smoke a stogie with this meal.
No, you do.
You would be over laughing so much.
Oh, yes, you would.
Like, ha, ha, ha.
No, you wouldn't.
And the looks you get leaving that restaurant, like,
oh, this guy did the thing.
He did the- You're the copiest dude in the oh, this guy did the thing. He did the-
You're the copiest dude in the restaurant.
This guy did the $1,900 Wagyu burger.
This is how you feel like Doug Dimmadome.
This is how you do it right here.
Oh, true, true.
This is the most Dimmadome shit.
Do you like caviar?
It's not my favorite.
Yeah.
Not my fave.
I've tried it exactly one time,
and I wasn't really a fan.
It's so salty.
It's really salty.
It's just, yeah,
there's not a lot of foods that I don't like i'll pretty much i'll pretty much eat whatever as long as like
it doesn't taste horrible like as long as there's not some reason it tastes bad
yeah but caviar is something that i never truly understand the the juice is not worth the squeeze
for me when it comes to price of it like so pricey at restaurants it's crazy expensive when it's if it's on something i'm not like scraping it off
yeah but like i will never seek out caviar yeah by the way it's it's really easy to spend this
much on a hat alone like you can get a cowboy hat that's you know beaver oh yeah that's it's
two grand enough like it's pretty easy to do so i would love to know the quality and the maker of the hat before i'm buying this which obviously you can look that up but this isn't
this isn't the worst thing imagine the cigar out of your mouth sipping some bourbon with the machine
next to you just steaming that hat in the looks the looks of respect you get from the surrounding
tables like oh he's doing it he's doing it what would the dick saloon version of
this be okay you get a um fitted assless chaps chaps yep you get custom chaps set you up real
nice with some chaps brother hey stand up gal was i can get that measurement yep which way
do you dress yeah which way do you dress all right i'm gonna spend some extra time over there but you don't get a wagyu burger though you get a pork chop
oh you get a pork chop and you get an a5 wagyu yeah wagyu glizzy that's right you want it oh
you want our deal you get a little burger man you you gotta take that burger apart to enjoy it
yeah i don't need the tempura crab or whatever
it is on there. I bet you they're gas though. Dude, I bet they're really good, but I think
I would ask for that on the side. I think everyone just takes them out and you eat them on the side.
I don't frequent tempura that much. I like tempura. I don't know why. I've never had
tempura crab, but I like tempura things. You've probably had tempura crab. Maybe.
You know what I do like tempura? Jalapenos.
Sweet potato chips, tempura.
Okay.
Have you had those?
No.
We had pumpkin the other night at dinner.
Tempura pumpkin.
Okay.
That sounds good.
We kind of got talked into it, and he talked us out of something that I really like, and he talked us into something else.
I was like, man, I should have held my ground.
I'm such a coward when it comes...
If a waiter says like, oh, if I'm between two dishes
and the waiter says like,
this one's better,
I'm always just like,
all right, yeah,
I didn't want that one,
but I'll get that one.
Deer Valley, is that Colorado?
No.
Where is it?
NF Confession, I don't know.
Utah.
Okay, I don't think Cowboy
when I think Utah,
but I'm sure they got them there.
No, they got them there.
Okay. The mountains. Utah's got them cowboys cowboy cowboy territory yeah yeah okay come on
down like if you got money to blow this would be a fun thing to do yeah oh it definitely would be
definitely would because unlike unlike a meal where you just blow a lot on a meal you leave
with something you leave you leave with a memento like hey if the hat is nice enough i think i think we need it's like you wear it around your voice
hey remember that time we went to deer valley and spent all of our money on cowboy hats and
a burger like that was sick we need some we need like our richest backer to go do this and and
document document yeah i want someone to to vlog this i can't i can't believe we pivoted on this
i'm really happy for us awesome i was like i wonder if you get that knife too dude the knife is cool the knife is cool yeah probably you probably do it yeah it kind of looks
like our a knife that our old uh grandex co-worker makes the guy uh daniel barouse he does the
skateboard stuff by the way still my favorite thing about jay carver's the night oh the knife
selection the steak out there's a steakhouse in austin if you order a steak they bring this array
of steak knives and you get to choose your steak knife.
And it's like from different regions around the world.
Yeah, but you didn't...
So you told me about this.
I had only been there once, and you told me about this.
I was really excited.
You got talked into the house knife, didn't you?
Yeah.
And I was like, I don't want to choose the house knife, but I feel like an asshole not
doing the house knife from the restaurant that had it specially made for the restaurant.
I think I chose the Japanese knife last time I was there.
See, that's the thing.
Randy definitely would have chosen the Japanese one.
It treated me quite nicely.
That's a nice touch.
Dylan, would you drink a hot dog martini?
No.
Have you watched this video yet?
Yes.
Okay.
Randy, do you have the video?
Got the USB up?
The hot dog martini.
Hot dog martinis are the perfect savory cocktail for the summer, and this is how you make it.
In a mason jar, combine your cherry tomatoes and dry vermouth.
Let that infuse for three days.
In a shaker, combine your potato vodka, tomato-infused driver mousse, pickle brine, and celery butters.
Shake with ice for 30 seconds and strain into a chilled glass.
For garnish, add your five drops of sesame oil and the skewer.
This recipe from Art in the Age is so unique.
Let us know if you would try this.
Okay, I'll try it.
I think I'd drink this.
Okay, I'll try it.
Like, when she said hot dog martini, I was like, she's going to cut up a hot dog,
she's going to put it in a bottle of vodka
and let it distill overnight and get the flavor.
What it has to infuse for three days?
What?
Tomatoes.
The tomatoes.
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah, I'm going to try it.
Would you serve these at a campaign event?
For what exactly?
Presidents.
Oh, weirdly, i'm not running for
president and if i did again i'll point out if i did run i'd probably run as myself
not as a giant hot dog how do you how does your camp how does your campaign team feel about
the joey chestnut drama of him getting out of the nathans and then now immediately uh rendering our
entire segment on him useless. We're stepping in.
We're doing what we can.
Are you going to try to team up with Netflix?
We're trying to right this wrong.
You know how Trump shows up to UFC events?
You should just show up to hot dog eating contests.
Why is he at every UFC event?
How does he have time for that?
I think he's buddies with Dana White.
Yeah.
I don't know.
He knows that's his demo too.
Oh, for sure.
For sure.
He also is friends with Bryson.
When Bryson won his last US Open, he celebrated with Eric Trump.
Really?
No offense to the Trump family, but if I'm going to celebrate with any Trump after something,
it ain't going to be Eric.
Tomato infused dry vermouth.
Okay, sorry.
I'm still on this.
Yeah, I don't know.
That's weird.
That's weird.
He's buddies with Tom Brady.
Yeah, but Tom Brady's buddies with Trump too. That's what I mean. Yeah. We're Brady and Trump. Oh, yeah, yeah. Brady's weird. He's buddies with Tom Brady. Yeah, but Tom Brady's buddies with Trump, too.
That's what I mean.
Yeah.
We're Brady and Trump.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Brady and Trump.
Yeah, yeah.
I think I'd drink this hot dog martini.
Sesame oil.
Yeah, that's a big retail therapy no-no here.
What about the little globs and the martini?
The little oil.
I'm not proud of what I'm about to say.
She didn't overdo it.
It seemed like a tasteful amount of globs.
Two drops celery bitters.
Celery bitters.
One issue I have with this is that hot dog that she garnished it with is way too nice looking.
It needs to be way more Oscar Mayer feeling.
And a little overdone.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's not the best hot dog work.
It's not the best.
Sesame oil.
What makes it really a hot dog, Martini?
Just that it's garnished with a little hot dog? I makes it really a hot dog martini just that it's
garnished with a little i think it's because it has chicago dog elements in it i guess so and like
and that's it but i i'll be honest i'm okay with not doing it right on the nose we don't need it
to have a hot dog flavor to it if it has elements of a chicago there's tomato flavor pickle flavor
celery flavor which yeah that's all stuff on a chicago hot dog okay yeah
this is chicago dog style yeah i mean i'm definitely gonna try this randy if there's
one chicago dog you want us to have where do we get it from if i'm gonna have one chicago dog where
i honestly that's a great question any place that has vienna beef logo out of it i mean they're all
amazing okay there's no like there's no one real place it's like you go here for chicago is it in my opinion like a street side play like like street vendors
or is it like trailers or restaurants they're more restaurants they're more like diner-esque
restaurants if you go to a place and it has a like the menu board is like the like the stick
letters where they put them in there then you know you're good yeah you're
cooking you know there's a trailer right here that has it's they they promote wrigleyville dogs oh
randy knows i i know that's the place that dave got uh stuff for the stream and i it's it's not
good i'll be honest it has vienna beef logo out there i don't know if they that they're lying
about those dogs left a little to be desired they're not good they're not made like ones the
ones that black sheep lodge to are just they're good but they're they're nothing like
the ones okay dumb question about chicago dogs is one chicago dog filling enough to be an entire
meal or do you need supplements because it's so much more aggressive than a normal hot dog i think
in you could but a lot of places serve their deal is uh chicago dog and fries and even a lot of them are two chicago
dogs and fries okay okay so so you can take down two chicago dogs and not be like stuff stuff yeah
yeah you'll be you'll be full you'll be like that's that's my hand up i've never had a chicago
dog in chicago i've only had it in other cities and i'm i am legitimately excited to have a chicago
dog yes we'll go to a good place okay fatso's Last Stand is probably like the one I think people know the most
for Chicago dogs.
Okay.
I mean, I'd go to Wiener Circle,
but I don't know if Dylan
can handle the roasting
that you get from the ladies
behind the counter.
I've never been to Wiener Circle.
I really want to go.
It's right down the street
from Sluggers, so.
Dude, they're making fun of me.
There we go.
Dude, why are they
making fun of me?
We're going to eat
a Chicago dog.
Dude, that lady,
she went too far.
Our final story in Restaurant Hour.
People are just getting banned from restaurants.
We've got a restaurant that's banned kids under five,
and then Dylan has a restaurant that's banned people under 30 yeah which i kind of respect um the first restaurant was a restaurant in indianapolis it was
closed oh it's now closed because i think of the backlash from this uh they they banned kids under five, and they also banned mothers from breastfeeding in their restaurant.
The reason they banned kids under five was because of poopy diapers being left on the table.
She said, this is not Chuck E. Cheese.
This was not made for babies.
That's the sad truth.
People were not happy about it.
The Indiana state law says that you can breastfeed anywhere where you're allowed.
And whenever you ban or whenever you discriminate towards parents who have kids under five,
you're going to get some backlash from those parents who are just absolutely going through
it and looking for an avenue to yell at you for it.
If I went to a restaurant with my son, who's three, or your son, who's seven previously,
um, and they told me, sir sir you can't go in he's too
young i would drag that place yeah uh p i don't understand people who get so just so upset about
a child's behavior when it's it's a kid who doesn't know better like i don't irritate it sure if it's a
bar if it's a bar and you're annoyed with kids yelling during something whatever then that's
fine i get it it's a bar like i understand it can be irritating if the kids like screaming
at a restaurant but you're in a public place and you're in public and kids are gonna be kids
you just got to deal it's something that's just life you just got to deal with it you used to be
a kid yourself you're in public yeah sorry yeah if you
don't want kids around then go go do something somewhere else where you can control the situation
but you're in public it might be like the parent in me talking like oh don't get upset by this but
like just chill out i mean just remove yourself and leave if it's that big of a deal or don't
you know oh yeah i'm sure i had takes like this back in the day like my worst take ever on pgp
was when i wrote a breastfeeding column because I just needed something to write that day, thought it'd be polarizing and funny to write,
took it down within 15 minutes because I was like, I don't feel good enough about this.
And the two comments that I've received on it immediately have really steered me to be like,
yeah, that's a bad take. And now after having a kid, I'm like appalled that I ever even thought
that because like you can't, it's just the worst take you can have is not breastfeeding in public at this point. Like kids need to eat and women need to get that milk out
of those breasts. Yeah. Like we got to get this moving. Very natural, natural situation. It's a
beautiful thing. There's another restaurant that we'll mention earlier. It's a Caribbean restaurant.
It's called Bliss. It's outside of St.is and it bans anyone under the age of 30
because they're trying to create a grown and sexy vibe lux vibe dude i kind of love it a grown and
sexy randy you're you you just sneak in i just made it you just yeah this is like at the amusement
park when i can finally ride the roller coasters i just got tall enough a grown and sexy vibe no one under 30.
that's ridiculous that is ridiculous man like you're chopping off like a a big going out
demographic the big going out demographic yeah like how busy is this restaurant i don't know
there's a few restaurants in austin that i'd love to like lop off the 20 to 29-year-olds.
Yeah.
It's not every restaurant, but like I support banning people under 30 more than I support banning kids under five.
Yeah, I do too, actually.
I like casting the wide net and making everyone a victim.
Under 30. That's funny.
If you owned a restaurant, Dylan, who would you ban from your restaurant?
Ooh.
Who would I ban from your restaurant? Ooh. Who would I ban from my restaurant?
Can I ban just shithead teenagers?
Can I ban...
Cool teens?
13 to 19?
Okay.
If you're a teenager, you can't come in?
12-year-old.
A 12-year-old goes to the door.
Nope, you're in.
One in, one out.
Hey, one in, one out.
Oh, 13.
Nope, can't get in.
You're done.
Teenagers that are without their parents.
Okay, that's good.
I'll limit it to them.
That's good.
Yeah.
Because they're the ones that are causing trouble.
I'm doing anyone post-workout.
Yeah.
They're the one putting ketchup packets under their buddy's seats.
You know what I mean?
It's just like they're shitheads.
And they're also not going to tip very well. I'm doing post-workout people i don't care if you went to
a spin class i don't care if you went to barry's boot camp i don't care if you went to i don't
care if you did a bike ride with all your boys you better you can't operate in austin no no that's
yeah you're right you're right but i get out of there with your sweaty ass all the moms you're
putting your sweaty bike shorts on my nice booth?
Yeah.
You're going to leave a mark there.
There's going to be salt stains from your butt.
A workout followed by a brunch right after is a big Austin play.
Oh, yeah.
Big Austin play.
2017, it was like, holy shit.
Everyone's in-
Outdoor voices?
Yoga pants.
Oh, yeah.
Everyone's in color-block blocked outdoor voices stuff oh my
god that was such a thing grove still is to some degree i guess now it's just aloe brand instead of
outdoor voices i don't get the aloe stuff that much it's the guys who wear the aloe hats to
the gym that are like an idiot dude they're like that the upside down dallas hat has been replaced for me by the aloe hat for being the
signifier of like just the bro-iest of bros yeah like and and we can be bro-y they're not even good
looking there's just a black cat that says aloe wine it's also because another guys are wearing
it like like dylan's wearing it right now like how you're supposed to wear a baseball cap they're
all wearing it super like tight like cocky t-man style but dude i think the
only reason guys wear aloe hats is because they know that girls love aloe and so they put the
hat on so that girls are like oh he likes aloe you think yes are they expensive is it like a
i'm sure it's like luxury play sure it's like lulu lulu's expensive yeah oh yeah oh yeah but
lulu makes really good quality stuff yeah i still i still
wear their boxers pretty much exclusively i've tried a lot of other boxes that i like but like
i love lulu boxers so much that i can't stop taking i can't stop wearing their stuff holds
up really well okay good episode all right we gotta go listen to dumb zone dude today's it's
i'm in my loading phase. Yeah.
