all right we're back circling back podcast coming to you live from austin texas my name is will
today in the studio with me, Dave Roth.
I might look 39, but I do not feel 39 whatsoever. Honestly, feeling 36. You remember 36?
I am 36. Sorry not to flex on you too hard or anything, but yeah, I'm currently 36 years old.
I pray. I pray for two things. I pray for my ops. I also pray that when you turn 39 you feel like you do right now i probably i feel like i feel like right now okay other than that thing
i feel like i feel awful so if i feel like this when i'm 39 years old we're gonna have a major
issue not like okay i don't mean like any kind of potential digestive tract issues but i mean just
you know inflammation wise yeah so when you turn 39 it just feels like you always just ate sweet green you always just hit that romaine that
just got recalled see there's a lot of people who don't know what you're talking about so they're
probably thinking oh that must be great you know you're eating healthy but they don't know what
it's done to many people including you no the austin the aust the South Congress, Austin, Texas location, Sweetgreen has,
has really taken a lot of victims. Not this time for me. I'm probably unjustifiably slandering
them as I cannot pinpoint where I might've contracted some type of foodborne illness.
Yes. But I think I might have some sort of foodborne illness. So this is the foodborne illness game.
Speaking of illness, Dylan's not here, but he's not sick.
He's just on vacation.
Sick with it.
He's sick with it.
I don't know.
More on him later, right?
Maybe.
Speaking of illness, would you like to hear the 2023 summer playlist
carefully crafted by President Barack
Obama? I always love looking at the playlist that he puts out every summer as if he actually did it
himself. So let's see this year if he actually did this himself. I'm not going to read everything,
but I am going to look at some standouts. We've got Fast Car, the Luke Combs cover.
Terrible.
Terrible.
How are you going to put...
He put the Pretenders, I'll Stand By You,
two spots above that on this list,
so you know that he's got some 90s in the mix.
And he's going to hit us with a Luke Combs version of Fast Car.
Is he Brett Merriman?
Maybe he's trying to reach across the aisle a little bit.
Yeah, maybe.
Maybe.
Does he have any Jason Aldean on here?
No.
Glaring lack of Aldean, but he does have Ice Spice and Nicki Minaj.
I don't...
No offense to Ice Spice, but I don't think Obama was listening to Ice Spice before Ice Spice hit that Taylor Swift concert.
She did get featured on the Karma remix.
We have him listening to Tootsie the Maytile's Funky Kingston.
I actually do believe this one.
I do think he's got some reggae in him.
Yeah, I feel like that's a staple of these.
How long has he been doing these plays?
A long time.
A very long time.
And I don't know if it's just summer.
I think he might put out other times, too.
Personal favorite of mine, Jackson Brown,
Doctor My Eyes.
Great song.
Great song.
Four Tops, Reach Out, I'll Be There.
Let's go.
A little Pearl Jam.
You're a big Pearl Jam guy.
You were jamming Evenflow on the way in today.
I heard you when you pulled up.
I just have absolutely no desire to listen to Pearl Jam
for some reason.
If you put on even flow,
next time you're in your vehicle,
maybe not the best timing for you,
given the nature of what's going on,
but you're going to have a good time and you're going to drive above the speed limit.
I do guarantee that.
I never drive above the speed limit.
Everyone knows I don't text and drive.
I always use my blinker
and I do not eclipse the speed limit.
Sitting on the dock of the bay, Otis Redding.
It's a classic.
Dude.
Some Righteous Brothers, too.
This is a good playlist.
I think pound for pound, I actually believe this playlist more than I have years prior.
Is this the playlist of the summer?
No.
No, it's not.
What is?
Your daily mix, too?
Not this.
I think that Cruel Summer has really become become the uh oh i don't know what to
listen to but it's on my spotify like apple airplay thing like it's one of the first options
so cruel summer just gets put on all the time which then i listen to lover and then every time
i hear lover i start thinking to myself why is there this weird part at the end that starts going
off on like a random tangent and now taylor switch is going to be yet again atop my Spotify most played.
Yeah, if that song is not in my top five, something's wrong with the algorithm.
Because I never turn it off.
California love.
Two buck.
Dr. Dre.
I just don't.
Pretty good.
It's just weird to me that like we feel the need to have obama get someone in his
life to curate this make the graphics for it do it do we really think he's sitting on vacation
just cooking up playlists i'd like to think that he is yeah
yeah he got criticism recently on vacation did you see that no he gave uh michelle his wife a little tap on the tush as
they were walking up some stairs and people thought it was a little too much i don't think so
i think if you're barack and you see michelle walking in front of you upstairs on vacation i
think you have more than enough clearance to give a nice little thwack did he know the cameras were
on him probably he's a president he probably
assumes that like anytime he's like not in a room with four walls there's a camera close that's a
great point yeah you know sounds like they've got a good healthy marriage why can't why can't a next
president slap the bottom of his shoddy that's a great point i think um i think back to what some other presidents have
done while while in office not great i think about what like other first ladies have done in office
um who nancy reagan for example the war on drugs is that what you're referring to
you're definitely referring to that.
She's got a track record.
Just didn't want people doing drugs.
Didn't they call her
Sloppenheimer for a little bit?
You know, I don't know.
I don't think...
What, Randy?
Randy's giggling over there.
Where did the first ever
Nancy Reagan thing
actually come off?
Twitter.
Was it like someone just said it?
Or was it like an article that said like...
I think somebody saw a photo of her sitting on Mr. T's lap or something.
And it just went from there.
I think it was in someone's like memoirs.
It came up and like that.
Like someone like got that expert.
Sinatra?
And put it on Twitter.
It was in someone's like memoirs. that she was very good with the neck.
Like a stand-up comedian.
Jesus.
Who's got their neck, you said, Randy?
That's a little far.
It's a former first lady.
Yeah.
She's also deceased.
Respect the office.
You don't.
That's the thing about Randy.
You haven't respected the office in a while.
It's true.
Stealing valor on weekends. I don't steal don't steal hanging out with his firefighter buddies just kind of just hoping people are like oh this guy must
he's first responder fuck yeah man thank you for your service the mustache doesn't help
yeah you do still yeah you still firefighter valor more than like anything else
nah yeah nah what percentage of your firefighter Valor more than like anything else. Nah. Yeah. Nah.
What percentage of your firefighter buddies are doing the mustache?
Oh, I would say probably maybe a little under 50%, but it seems like half of them.
That's a good number.
You see a firefighter show up to your place and he's got a mustache.
Do you feel more comfortable?
I think I do.
Yeah.
I think I'm like, okay, this guy's got me.
Yeah.
He's going to carry me out of there as my as my i get a little grease fire on my stove or something and just panic i love to say i didn't trim my wick you didn't will didn't trim his wick
and he just has to throw will over his shoulder you guys ever watch Backdraft? Yeah, actually.
Heavy movie, man.
Fucking scary movie as a kid.
I watched that on summer vacation one time,
and I was like, I looked at my hand,
and I was like, why'd you let me watch this?
Why are you watching Backdraft on vacation?
I don't know.
It just sounded dope.
You familiar with Backdraft, Randy?
No.
I mean, I'm familiar with the movie,
but I've never seen it.
Okay.
I'm trying to think about all the movies i've watched on vacation now even steven's movie was the only one i could think of i don't know that i've ever watched
a movie on vacation oh dude we used to just crush them crush them i remember watching i remember
like disney channel original movies would come out and i just go to like sit on vacation and
just watch those when my parents got ready for dinner every night.
What do you think Dylan's watching on vacation?
The salmon just going circles in the microwave.
Just waiting on that salmon.
You can't get diced up abs like Dylan's putting on the TL right now
without eating just a ton of salmon.
That's all he's eating.
Is he more cut than he used to be i feel like he
used to be a juiced up gorilla and now he's just this cut up like adonis i feel like he's been
prepping for this trip i feel like he he knew he was gonna get these photos off yeah he he probably
ate very very clean the last week or two and um klein our friend klein our group text complimented him and asked him to work out and
dylan mentioned he was doing as dylan would say h-i-i-t known commonly as hit workouts
high intensity interval training familiar i'm familiar that was that was a big staple in will's
peloton journey yeah i could see that i was watching the tour de france recently you familiar
with this it's it's a tour of france just ended um i remember i said something one time when i got
the peloton about how like i was gonna maybe try to train for the tour and there were like a couple
backers that were like dude it's crazy that will actually thinks you could do that wouldn't idiot
and then i was like hold on hold on are you guys are you guys serious right now you guys actually think i think i can train for the tour i can barely get i can barely even get in the top
10 of my peloton class i can barely get the top 25 the idea i did love the idea of you taking uh
epo getting on some banned substance just for peloton numbers i think there was a time when
i would have like when i was really in the throes of pel. I think there was a time when I would have. When I was really in the throes of Peloton,
I think there was a time when I would have taken something to up my game.
It got really competitive during lockdown.
You would go look at your boys' numbers and be like,
Oh, fuck, dude.
My buddy Jeff, he put up 100 more KJs than me today.
That doesn't shock me, though.
Jeff's got some trunks.
Dude, and we got some –
I got a buddy who was like –
He's like top three in classes sometimes.
So, like, I'm up against, like, actual, like, cyclists.
It's hard.
After the Open Championship, I was watching a little post coverage
with Brandl, Brad Faxon, and they're talking about Rory.
And Brandl noted that he's, you know, he's in his mid-30s,
so he's out of his physical prime, technically, in his opinion.
Brad Faxxton jumped in was like
he literally said he's he's in the top 10 of peloton or something he said his peloton rides
are legendary i i see now i need to know i do follow rory i just haven't been on his profile
in a minute actually let me just do a live let me do a live check of rory's uh peloton numbers
uh because somebody released a bunch of somebody released a bunch of Peloton usernames for famous athletes, and Rory was
one of them.
And I was like, well, I obviously have to add Rory to my shit.
We're talking 955 kilojoules of total output in a 45-minute ride.
How many?
955.
Yeah, that's fucking insane.
What do you do normally? You don't have to... Are you serious? That's better than 10%, dude. How many? Nine 55. Yeah. That's fucking insane. What do you do?
Normal?
You don't have to,
are you serious?
That's better than 10%.
That's golf digest.
I'm glad faxing came with the receipts.
Faxing for my,
for,
for,
for some,
uh,
for some,
uh,
reference here,
David,
my PR like all time on a 30 minute ride.
Okay.
Was 420.
Oh, did you, I did not do that on purpose are you sure i i swear to god birth of your son i thought that for the last 10 seconds or for the
last 30 seconds of every ride i go i sell out i go as hard as i possibly can and on this one i think
i was at like 405 and i didn't think there was any way that I could get up past like 415 and when I
looked up and saw that I'd gotten to 420 I was just like oh that's hilarious they're really gonna
hate this Rory right now could probably take six weeks and be ready for the Tour de France next
year dude get Rory in look at those numbers he's got a lot of kilojoules guys they should have
they should have gotten him for the ESPN thing that they did when they had like Gola Jr. on and
stuff they had an Olympic Jr. on and stuff.
They had an Olympic athlete who was, I think,
a long-distance runner or a sprinter,
and she just absolutely crushed the competition.
Really?
It makes sense.
Was that a pandemic play?
Yeah, for sure.
I was thinking about SNL, how SNL did a remote show.
Yeah.
And they got a lot of shit because it did suck,
but looking back, it's like they tried.
Yeah. What were they going to do? Yeah, it's like, they tried. Yeah.
What were they going to do?
Yeah, there's not much you can do in that scenario when the entire world's shut down
and you probably have, like, a lot of, like, advertisers and stuff.
The Peloton idea was, that's a good call.
What was yours and Micah's group called?
The Bad Boys of Pelly?
Yeah.
Is Micah still on that Pelly grind?
I don't know.
I don't know.
I would like to get back on,
but I just had to accept two terms
updates when I logged into the app to go check
Rory's stats. So that tells you how long
it's been since I've actually
done anything. I actually saw that Peloton
was recently acquired by X.
More on X in a few.
I am so out on
X right now. Let me see.
Yeah, I unfortunately
think I might have unfollowed
our man uh rory because he's not showing up on my stuff anymore maybe he just went private maybe
he deleted all his followers he got tired of all the ops well yeah that is that is impressive
though i'm glad faxon uh tracks rory's peloton rides brando had no comeback it's just like okay
well that sounds impressive good brando needs to shut the fuck up every once in a while.
Yeah, I like it.
I like faxing on there.
It's time to recap this weekend in fun presented by our friends over at Bird Dogs.
Bird Dogs are some of the goat shorts out there.
They're made to make you feel good and look good.
They've got stretch khaki shorts that are designed to fit slimmer through the thigh and leg,
giving you a truly sculpted look.
I mean, I'm a little cheeked up.
Bird dogs always help that a little bit.
Yeah, I've got a pretty thin lower body,
but the bird dogs really complement my legs,
which a lot of shorts don't,
but I'm a big fan of wearing them to the gym.
Sometimes I'll wear it to the bar,
maybe to the bibliotheca.
If we're going to get wild,
do bottle service at the discotheca.
I might wear them there too.
You're doing bottle service wearing bird dog shorts.
Yeah.
I respect that.
No one's doing that but me.
I have several pairs of bird dogs.
There's several things I like about them.
Do you want to know what I like about them?
Tell me.
I like the color palette.
They have several different colors that all kind of suit me pretty well.
I like the length of them.
They're not too long, but not too short. Like, I can wear them out in public
and not feel like I'm just showing thigh to people.
I also enjoy the fact that their liners
are so much more conducive
to toss in a little bit of a thick thigh in there
as opposed to a thin thigh.
You got, like, these people,
like these dorks over at Lululemon and stuff,
they got these thin-ass liners on their things
as if we don't just have absolute quads on us you got quads i got quads i need a bigger one
randy had multiple quads that he pulled in a softball game that's true but i wasn't wearing
my bird dogs if i was i don't know if that's a part of the claim but yeah they are nice shorts
these fit way better than regular shorts that are made with stiff restricting cotton and bird
dogs fix this issue by inventing cloud knit fabric that looks just like khaki.

You won't want to take your Bird Dogs off.
We promise you.
Dave, what did you get into this weekend?
Thanks for asking, yeah um yeah let me kick it off with what i did thursday um you guys have accused me of being the last person to go to the mall like who still goes to
the mall on a fairly regular basis if i go to the mall maybe a few a few times a year basically
if i go to the mall the only thing i'm doing is parking my car outside of the men's side of
nordstrom going in there and then leaving i'm always talking i'm not entering like the the
depths even if you're not buying anything at nordstrom park there walk through it's just
sometimes you got the piano player it's just a good vibe ever since that episode ever since the uh the storyline of stranger things that took place in a mall i just really associate malls with
stranger things now i don't know why well i went to the mall um because i decided it was time that
i i bought a new ranger texas rangers cap wow and uh was it not going down at the mall i went to lids bought this hat
it's a fitted it's the first fitted baseball first fitted cap i've purchased probably since
uh a red new york yankees one that i acquired in high school stop what to the people out there
who ask like wait you didn't have like a hat after like the last season of the season before
like obviously you'd have a good answer for them i have a dad a dad cap there you go i wanted i wanted the
new the alternate powder blue okay i've been eyeing this for a while i love the powder blues
and i finally went and got one dylan's a big powdered white guy more on him later
is that what dylan's doing on vacation just hanging out with the sharks the cocaine sharks
you think he's just doing coke on vacation with his family the entire time that would be that
would be a problem yeah i don't think that's happening i don't think that now based on what
i know about his entire family i just don't think they're doing that no but um so about that's that
was my thursday not that exciting but i just wanted to put that out there i can't like when
you go to lids now how many people are there like like trying to get a lid, trying to get a hat off?
There was two other people in there.
Okay.
And got to say, they have the little – they have a little station there where they'll – if you want your hat bent, they'll steam it and do that whole deal.
I'm keeping it like the kids.
I'm keeping it as straight across as possible.
But yeah, so I was in and I was out. I was
tactical. Didn't buy anything. Didn't even
look at anything in Nordstrom. Just got
my lid. Got out of there. What are you doing?
Stop going to lids at the mall. It's the first time I've been
in lids since high school. There's no doubt about that.
Friday night.
Friday was
my birthday. Turned 39.
Happy birthday. Thank you. Happy birthday, dude.
Hey, thanks, man.
Did we even confront your birthday, the Love Island no i think we did that's fucked up that's okay we're
there to talk about love island not me went to june's it's a restaurant on south congress my
my wife and i we decided to go great spot highly recommend it's one that we've probably recommended a number of times
over the last four or five years it's a staple great fried chicken sandwich but i have to tell
you you don't need multiple apps if you're going with the fried chicken sandwich see i always get
very weirded out not weirded out i always get nervous at a restaurant when their sandwiches
or burgers or chicken sandwiches do not come with
like fries or something and you have to order something on the side because i'm like wait like
are they trying to say that this burger is just huge or are they trying to just say like we're
not giving you anything free you this is a tailored a la carte experience sir not kidding
there's i don't know where they would they would have to put the chicken sandwich atop of a bed of fries to fit it onto this plate it's that big of a sandwich it's great very spicy he's
got jalapenos on it so if you don't like that stay away have they changed this sandwich it
definitely had a little bit of a different flavor this old one did not have jalapenos
no this one i think they i think they're on spice level five right now. Okay.
Went home after that.
Thought about going somewhere for dessert, but I was like, let's just go home.
Let's go to sleep.
Saturday, I saw you.
We went to Uptown Sports Club.
Uptown, things will be great when you're Uptown.
It's actually on the east side. Yeah, I don't know why they say Uptown. It's on the east side of Austin, Texas. It's actually on the east side.
Yeah, I don't know why they say uptown.
It's on the east side of Austin, Texas.
It's not uptown at all.
Uptown, I know of every downtown,
I assume major metropolitan area has an area that's uptown.
But every time I hear uptown,
I associate it with uptown Dallas.
There's no uptown Austin, right?
I don't know anything about uptown Austin.
Uptown?
It smells like up dog in austin
sometimes what's up dog not much dude how about you man randy you're playing along dude god you
rock dude rock dude randy's voice sounds like he had a weekend in fun no he's yeah i think there
was talk of randy last week he was like i got invited on this like barge thing but like i'm
not gonna go because it would just ruin my mond. And I'm just not going to do it.
And then sure enough, I go on Randy's Instagram yesterday.
And what do I see?
Just Randy just volume shooting from Lake Travis.
I put one post.
He did tell us he was going to try to get a thirst trap off.
Yeah, he did.
His AMA thirst trap was very thirsty.
It's a story thirst.
It was appropriately thirsty.
So wait, you were just walking to Kohl's shirtless?
Yeah.
And then what?
Clearly, you put the shirt on atop your sweaty body?
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, any more questions?
Yeah.
I got a few, actually.
What'd you buy from Kohl's?
Did you get anything from Kohl's?
You just take a photo out there.
I got some socks, but I got some crew socks, but they're too long.
I don't need them.
I need to get some ankle socks. I'm going to return them. I them i had 40 off so okay what's what size is the ankle sock like
how tall where does the ankle sock go up to i i have no clue that's why i need to get some ankle
socks because the crew socks went like above my calf you don't want them you don't want them atop
the calf in fact i don't even want a midway calf i think i think i'm gonna start doing the
ankle socks not like the no-shows i'm gonna do the ones that go up to that bone that you always
like knock into like a desk yeah you know i'm talking about just like this much out of the
shoe like this much out of the shoe speaking of that bone this is a different bone thing
my neighbor had a bunion removed which i'm really wasn't familiar with what that was
it's like a serious recovery dude you're so
much closer with your neighbors than i am with mine well we were i was like where's so-and-so
ben i haven't seen her walking the dog and oh she had a bunion removed i'm like fuck i thought it
was like a just go in get it frozen off or something it's like a bone spur type deal
on the side like if you like weren't responding to like text from alissa and she knew your home
and she was worried about you she probably probably has numerous people in the neighborhood she could call and get over there to check on you.
I was thinking about it the other day.
There's no one Sally could call in our immediate vicinity that could just go check on me.
Yeah.
No, I have a lot of babysitters in the neighborhood.
She's looking for me.
It turns out I'm just in the garage.
Crushing beers?
I'm in the garage with my headphones on just thinking about Oppenheimer.
Does your wife just accuse you of being high when you're just sitting in the garage yeah yeah she walks in i just got my my raycons in she's like are you high like no i'm just in the garage
in the garage sweating get out of here later sitting on a one of the 40 boxes you ordered
from amazon i'm just playing i didn't feel playing
sally hit me with that hey do you have time this week to return something for me and it's like dude
we're not doing that i am i am averse to returning things i don't even like returning stuff that i
buy alone i don't like doing it i don't i don't even return stuff that i buy i'll do it but i
hate i really hate doing it even though every time i do it it's not that of a deal. I just don't like having to go into FedEx or wherever.
Definitely don't go to the post office.
Returning something for someone while it takes less effort, it's on the same level for me as helping someone move.
It's just like, why would you ask me to do something that is so unbeneficial to my life?
It doesn't have immediate gratification.
No.
Because if you're returning it for another size, you're like, it's going to be like seven days at the earliest seven days at the earliest yeah three to five business maybe oh just go at lunch and it's like oh yeah because
the ups store famously has no one waiting in line at lunch i love going in there and just seeing all
the people who have like thriving like etsy and online shopping businesses that are just like
boom boom boom like they're in and they're out and they're clearly making good money doing it
shout out to them i'm like making sure i don't even know how to tape the label on properly
without getting in trouble. I'm always worried they're going to yell at me
for taping over the barcode.
I've made that mistake multiple times.
What happens if it gets wet and the barcode starts running?
I'm using ink from my at-home printer.
From my office printer, I guess.
How are we doing on ink?
I think we're good.
No, we're not.
We're doing terribly on the color ink front. We have black and white. I don't think we're good we just no no we're not we're doing terribly on the uh color ink front
we have black and white i don't think we have white ink
saturday night we went to dinner you were there your wife was there barrett was there
his fiancee was there i'm gonna punch randy he's way too amused by his white ink joke
it's just the paper
so yeah i guess that's all i have to say about that randy doesn't want to hear about my fun by his white ink joke. It's just the paper.
So yeah, I guess that's all I have to say about that.
Randy doesn't want to hear about my fun dinner that two guys on Twitter were trying to kill at me
for wearing a hat to dinner.
To Uptown Sports Club.
If the establishment has the word sports in the title,
I got news.
You're allowed to wear a hat at the establishment.
This is a good talking point.
Because I do not like when people wear hats to nice restaurants yeah like you're not wearing a hat to a nice steakhouse yeah tony soprano style tony soprano he might walk over when you're on a
date with your your lady friend and tell you to take it off is that what he did he did i don't
know it's been a long time it's a ballerer move. It was like season two, maybe three.
But I went in there, and in addition to the 15 other people in there wearing hats,
the vibe in there did not make me feel awkward for wearing my backwards Malbon cap.
Correct.
And also, I had taken a nap and not done my hair, and I was just like, I'm wearing a hat.
To be fair to you, we thought it was going to be more bar-y.
I did too.
We thought it was going to be more of a bar situation.
It ended up being a very high-end, quote-unquote, sports club.
It's also an interesting thing to be called a sports club. It's a New Orleans-style restaurant that's really good drinks.
More on that in a minute a minute no tvs no tvs except
for a novelty tiny one that had a skate video on which i'm fine with but like if if i was going to
go watch if i was wanting to watch some sports you might think that i'd be the place to do up
restaurants and i saw uptown sports club we should go there and watch some some footy or something
no no no you can't no no no tvs No, no, no. They had TVs at all?
No.
Like you said, they had one tiny TV that was playing a skate video the entire time.
It's like an old school TV, which again is objectively pretty sick.
It is sick.
Pretty sick.
Great spot.
I had some gumbo and a wedge salad.
Power order.
Great order.
Felt really good about it.
And drank a little bit.
Felt pretty good the next day, surprisingly.
My first non-hangover of 39 went well.
So, yeah.
We'll talk more about our orders.
What did you do?
I didn't do anything crazy this weekend, David.
After the last weekend of being out of town,
I decided to keep it pretty low-key.
Unfortunately for me, some of Sally's college friends
decided they would like to go out for dinner on Thursday night.
We went to Matt's El Rancho.
It's something I've never done before.
I didn't get it poncho style like everyone thinks.
I ordered the...
Lefty style?
The redfish tacos there, which is something I get often, okay?
But they also have some redfish on the menu that's blackened.
So I thought to myself, what if I got these fish tacos blackened?
And what I discovered is that it's one of my favorite things i've ever gotten from matt's el rancho and i can't wait to
go back again okay it's gonna be a while uh corn tortilla or flour corn i don't trust the flour
tortillas at matt's el rancho i do but i think i think a fish taco pairs better with corn. I do too.
I just don't... I don't like their corn tortillas.
I'll just say it.
I don't think their corn tortillas at Matt's are that good.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
You don't like the flour or the corn?
Corn.
So you did the fish on flour?
Correct.
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah, fish and corn would be a ridiculous concert.
Dude.
That's not a good jonathan davis i'm not gonna do it i thought it was good i watched elissa came out the other night i was watching their set at woodstock 99 stop doing she was like what are you
okay because she's literally worried she's like are you in a bad place right now i'm like no i'm
actually in a great place it kind of pissed off 99 watching corn kind of pissed me off that like corn was a
top trl for so long that's when i that's when i started to i did the thing where they get too
popular and then you kind of like man people ruined them so i did that's when i started being
out on them i was just annoying although dude freak out at least does not deserve 60 straight
days is number one not that good of a song. No, no.
Well, Saturday was the day.
I didn't do anything Friday as I felt a little sting from the Matto Rancho trip the night before,
so I thought I'd take it off.
On Saturday, I had lunch with one producer, Micah.
Just had an absolute blast.
Got to meet his young daughter.
Oh.
Shout out, Jane.
Cutest little girl I've ever seen.
And then I went to have a little pool sesh with my buddy,
and I had something I've never had before.
Tell me if you've done this, Dave.
Have you ever had a clarified margarita?
I don't even know what clarified meant.
Can you clarify what that means?
This guy.
Oh, man.
Give me a point for that.
It's a margarita.
Future point. It's a margarita where you say something to it,
and then it over-explains back what's going on.
Okay.
I like the mansplain, Marg, better.
So clarification is a process that involves adding milk to a cocktail mixture
and letting it sit for a period of time.
The milk proteins will coagulate and form curds,
which can then be strained out leaving behind a
clear silky smooth liquid motherfucker said curds he said this motherfucker said coagulate
curds and whey so is that what clarified butter is too bitch i do not know what clarified butter
you're not gonna get the right answer how long have you been doing this we don't know yeah we
don't know shit you don't you think the clear the butter is going to clarify itself just to clarify brandy i have no fucking clue what clarified butter is all about
yeah you good so how is the margarita yeah really good really good so you just all you do is pour
milk and just let it sit dude i guess i don't know my buddy did it and then my sally said so
what does that entail and we were kind of hoping for an explanation of the process and then he said
like well it's more clear and he didn't explain the process,
but we also felt so uncultured
that we couldn't dip back into that question.
Well, the milk has a lot of cultures,
a lot of active cultures.
It's good.
It's good.
You should one-up him, invite him over,
and do raw milk clarified.
That's good.
Be like, actually, the enzymes coagulate better,
therefore creating better curds and clarifying the entire situation.
That's good.
That's how you have to speak on that matter.
But I did have the pleasure of following up my clarified margarita
with something I never do.
Imagine having breast milk clarified.
Yeah, that'd be tight.
I'm going to have Sally do that when we have a new kid.
I'm going to steal some from the pump
and make some breast milk clarified Campari spritzes or something.
You run in the nursery.
Don't put those away.
Do a Marx.
Sorry.
White Russians.
Oh.
We do Russia.
Let's say the merchant of death
returns back from the United States.
Let's say that the merchant of death
gets his wife pregnant. He might be on house arrest's say that the merchant of death gets his wife pregnant.
He might be on house arrest because he's the
merchant of death.
But he wants to make
some clarified margaritas using
his wife's breast milk. Oh, man.
Tough. Tough.
It's so cold where I live, near Siberia.
Do you have a bar cart, merchant of death?
I do a martini.
Really? Dirty ice on the pond. I take it because you're Russian, you like a bar cart, merchant of death? I do a martini Really? Dirty, ice on the pond
I take it because you're Russian, you like a good vodka
Oh, love it
The Cormix, plastic bottle, the best
Do you squeeze it out of the plastic bottle?
I squeeze all of it
Do you take the fun stopper off?
I do a pint a day
I have a problem Yeah, that's a lot i quit cold turkey
and super max that's understandable then i went to tj max not as good as coals our producer also
likes coals he loves it i saw him thirst trap what does the merchant of death purchase at coals oh
socks and other clothing What does the merchant of death purchase at Kohl's? Oh, socks.
And other clothing.
Have you seen what Britney's been doing in the WNBA?
What if he just became her biggest fan?
Like, what if you saw photos of him in Russia and he was just wearing Griner jerseys
because she's the one who freed him?
I want to see a picture of him just rocking it,
just throwing, like, double deuce in the air.
Dude, if I'm him, I would be the biggest
Britney Griner fan. What if they became like
what if it became like kind of a fun little
like friendship? Friendship, yeah.
That'd be great.
They linked up in Ibiza.
That'd be funny. I don't know why Ibiza.
Is he allowed to leave the country at this point?
No, I can't leave. She must come here, but I understand
if she does not want to. It's like the dude who got the wrong number text about Thanksgiving,
and now they just do Thanksgiving together every year.
If that ever comes out as fake, I will be sad.
I don't think it will.
It's been long enough now.
It's like 20 years ago.
I think they've been doing it a lot.
I actually think that, unfortunately, the older gentleman passed away,
and they still go in remembrance.
Nothing more important than family.
It's facts, dude.
Dave, I do have a question, though.
Now that as the merchant of death, he has to go, right?
He's gone.
He's gone for the rest of the time we do this show.
Dave and I got wild.
So they had something on the menu the other night.
They had four beers on draft, which I always like to see.
I had a couple of them.
And then we saw something below that that for six dollars you could have a shot in a beer and this was an eight ounce beer
with a shot of whiskey and so dave i saw dave trying to convince barrett to do something i
didn't realize that you had also ordered the shot in a beer and once i caught wind of that i had to
edit my order immediately it was a birthday play had it not been my birthday weekend I probably wouldn't have done this um also I was not driving a vehicle so
I was like had no issues with doing this I think I've done it one other time in my life actually
ordered that uh-huh and yeah when I saw it on there I was like well may as well may as well
do it and I needed total buy-in from the guy's side of the table.
We were split down the – we had a girl's side.
That was the move that night though.
We needed that.
The lads were chatting.
And yeah, it was a shot of bourbon and I don't even know what the beer was.
It was a lager of some sort.
I just feel like people don't do that these days.
But I also feel like binge drinking is not as popular these days.
So people aren't as likely to order a shot of beer. i like that it was an eight ounce beer same and it works
out for somebody like me who i might take more trips to the gents room facts than most um the
shot in the in the eight ounce beer that that's that ended my night i didn't have anything else
to drink i didn't either great yeah i was a little worried about you you looked um I didn't have anything else to drink after. I didn't either. Great. Yeah. I was a little worried about you.
You looked – I didn't know I was hitting you.
I didn't know if you were tired or like –
I was exhausted.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You had a big night prior.
No.
Yeah.
I was ready to leave.
I was ready to go back downtown and go to bed.
Yeah.
I was – while I would have gone to a a second location i wasn't bummed when no one
was like actively trying to promote going to a second location no no i wanted to keep my sunday
intact yeah it was probably it was probably the move the shot in the beer like i don't know how
many places offer that i don't know if you could just pull up to any bar and and i mean you could
clearly order a shot and a beer they can't stop you from ordering a glass of water or shot or a
beer or steak or steak uh but like i don't know it feels like it feels like kind of like a cool like
austin this place is on the east side austin like east side hipster thing we're supposed to be
sipping our shot instead of taking it like we did because we took it like absolute ruthless
rowdy gentleman if it says shot I'm not sipping the shot.
And it wasn't high.
It was okay bourbon.
It's true.
It wasn't like.
It's true.
Pappy.
Yeah, it's true.
Pappy would be hilarious to shoot.
We would have made the Davies special.
We would have tossed some jolt in there.
Called it a day.
They didn't have jolt.
They had code red, which I thought about.
They did have a good bourbon selection.
Yeah, but code red's better with the 15 year, not the selection. Yeah, but Code Red's better with the 15-year, not the 12.
That's true.
12's better with the Jolt.
And also, dude, secret, when you make that, put a little milk in it.
Clarify it?
Clarify that, Pappy.
Yeah.
I like that idea.
Sounds good.
You thirsty, buddy?
Randy stays thirsty.
Always thirsty.
I think shot beer and a cigarette used to be a thing on like Rainy Street.
It was.
It was at Lucy or something.
Yeah.
I ordered that a couple times, actually.
Proud of myself for actually following through.
Can you get it and like hold the cigarette?
Like, I don't really want to smoke.
They would do a hand rolled.
No, you don't do it.
You take it and then you give it to someone.
Someone's gonna be really excited when you give them a hand rolled cigarette.
Because they give you the cigarette, but you can't smoke it at the bar, right?
No, you have to go outside.
Fuck, that's cool, though.
That's some cool shit that I'm not on.
I did it a few times.
I mean, not that smoking's cool, but you do look cool.
I actually wanted the shot less than the hand-rolled cigarette.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I get it.
I get it.
Hey, today's episode is also presented to you by Rocket Money.
If you're not familiar with Rocket Money, Rocket Money is a personal finance app that finds and cancels your unwanted subscriptions, monitors your spending, and helps you lower your bills all in one place.
I love Rocket Money.
They give me an email every single Monday letting me know the state of my finances, of which, you know, I kind of need that.
I'm one of those people that doesn't like to check their bank account until, like, Wednesday of that week and stuff like that.
Having that email go through and kind of – it clears out a little question that I have
regarding my weekend every weekend.
Keeps me honest.
Yeah.
Gives me up in the game.
Yeah.
It's a nice clarification.
But what it also keeps honest is all these people
that require subscriptions that you forgot about.
Chances are you're probably one of those people that did it.
Hand up.
Facts.
This guy.
My wife and I, we had three different ESPN accounts
that we were paying for because we're
idiots. Dude, I swear to God, I go check mine every month to make sure that's not somehow
happened to me. Luckily for me, I don't have to check anymore because Rocket Money doesn't
for me. They're absolutely goaded. They will quickly and easily find your subscriptions for
you and any you don't want to pay for anymore, you just hit cancel and Rocket Money will cancel
it for you. It's that easy. Rocket Money also helps you manage your finances in one place and automatically categorize your expenses so you can
easily track your budget in real time and also get alerted if anything looks off over three million
people use rocket money saving the average person about 720 a year that's something i can get behind
that's a lot of money it's a lot of a lot of skrill serious it saved me money because i listen
i used to listen to random podcasts on different apps
that I paid like five bucks a month for and I paid for one for like eight months that I was not
using. Rocket Money got me. Stop throwing your money away. Cancel unwanted subscriptions. Manage
your expenses the easy way by going to rocketmoney.com slash circling. That's rocketmoney.com
slash circling. Again, rocketmoney.com slash circling. Twitter is turning.com circling again rocket money.com circling twitter is turning into
x it's already been done dave how do you feel about this it hasn't updated on mine yet it hasn't
updated on my mobile app at this point but it's definitely in full bore uh on on the the web
browser um this dude is such a fucking this is what this is lame i know he does a lot of changes
to twitter and just to to gauge the reaction of things and see what's going on like with uh i
don't know tweet limits i never actually got limited on my tweets he's done that uh with us
forcing people to pay for verification uh not letting people who were previously verified
just keep their checkmark
even though it was deemed fine by other people,
things of that nature.
Well, now he's turned Twitter into an app
that looks like something that
if I clicked on the app in my phone,
my wife would look over and be like,
are you on a high-end dating site?
So this guy...
I would love it if...
Okay, I wouldn't love it for a number of reasons, but if you were on a high-end dating site so this guy i would love it if okay i wouldn't love it for a number of reasons but
if you were on a high-end dating dude the new the new logo looks like it's like a high-end
dating is that like the opposite of like farmers only no offense love our farmers love y'all i
love corn fed you can't go on there there's that one that you have to like be someone to be on raya
raya yeah we've talked about that i've never i've but the last the the last dating app that i was on
was bumble mine was the still got it app it's a very very long ago callback if we have any app
developers out there who'd like to reach out,
we would love to talk.
It's like week two of us doing a show.
It's a true story.
Yeah.
So he's had an obsession with the letter X.
Well, there's the Model X.
There's SpaceX.
In 1999, he co-founded X.com.
There's his son.
What's his son's name again?
I think there's an X in it.
There's probably an X in it.
I just don't get it.
Like some people are theorizing that he's doing this
because he's going to put all the assets
under a new company called X
and then just let Twitter go into bankruptcy
and try to like finagle that.
I'm not a financial whiz.
So I'm going to not try to further explain that.
I could see that being the case as he
clearly doesn't care about not paying bills that he owes money for you know like rent in san
francisco things of that nature the the red flag for me is i i think i watched a clip where he said
that like he thinks that up to 50 of like the world's financial system will be done on x it's
just not going to be that because, I don't know,
I think there's a lot of people who just don't want to support him.
50%.
Also, his quote is, yeah,
Twitter could become half of the global financial system.
And he also said it's the most efficient database for the thing that is money,
which is just a weird way of describing currency.
I don't know.
It's just – I don't – this guy can go from like –
has anybody ever gone from like people thinking like,
dude, this guy's a genius to like people being like,
wow, you are not that smart.
No, but I also think it's because of his public persona.
If he didn't have a public
persona i don't think people would even register this kind of stuff i think he's doing it down for
the public i think he's trying to come across as like an every every dumb guy and so he can get
away with more there's a lot of reasons people have criticized me directly to me about how much
i dislike him and i get it it's not a good look to have someone own that much real estate in your head. He owns a lot in mine.
X owns it now.
Yeah, it's an X.
Yeah.
Like, I don't like that he's kind of been ruining our favorite app or what was our favorite app.
I don't like that he's just a weirdo, kind of a creep, kind of like gent Twitter's like, you know, God at this point.
He's just a weirdo, kind of a creep, kind of like gent Twitter's god at this point.
And I don't like that he responds to tweets on his own platform and amplifies their voice for things that maybe could be considered things that just generally aren't great, like racism, prejudice.
He is someone that I have tried to tune out, but this appears like it's going to be a thing going forward.
And I feel like every venture he's had, he's had backing from the American elite.
I just want to know.
Government backing.
What's it going to look like?
What's Twitter going to look like when we're voting in the presidential election next year? Is is that is that part of this too like is he wanting to have some that wouldn't show
no i'm just worried that he would tank the company between now and then we got a year in a couple
months to uh to not have it get tanked but i'm worried that he's just tanking it yeah it's the
everything app so how does it become financial i don't understand how this social media
tweet thing is not becoming a financial thing i don't know randy he wanted to
he wanted to rename i think paypal x.com which is why he founded x.com i saw x videos getting
some love randy yeah apparently x videos has like a thousand x on their uh their traffic right now
because people are trying to type in x.com and it's just ending with people accidentally getting x videos populated in their safari i wasn't supposed to
come on y'all got everyone's everyone if you're listening like you got it you can't just be going
to x videos right porn hub shaking in their boots you guys just don't search like porn
you guys just don't search like porn porn.com porn.com boobs on google images yeah no that's that's a late 90s move yeah yeah we've all been there that's on an aol browser looking up boobs
it doesn't affect me at all to have twitter go away but all the people like clamoring and saying
that it's crazy to take this much brand equity and this much brand recognition and just throw it down the drain it is kind of crazy i also didn't hate the
bird logo the bird no it's honestly compared to other apps that we use it's probably the best
yeah it's a good looking logo like the bird the little bird guys it's a cute little bird birds
though the birds though
i didn't realize how much their advertising revenue plummeted like 50 like a serious yeah
well yeah dave it's a it's a like he talks about advertising stuff all the time but then he's
building a platform where people can only or could only for a little bit see x amount of tweets per
day if you're an advertiser and you're paying money to like get on there,
are you really like psyched that people can't see your tweets?
Uh,
I wondered it cause I'm not doing the numbers I once did.
I wondered if I was getting, you're not verified anymore.
I'm not getting the visibility.
You're not.
Cause you're not verified and you have to pay for that visibility.
Hey,
it's important to eat local,
support local artists,
support unverified podcasters on twitter should we
should we make that shirt yep it'll go yeah yeah let's do it randy write that down
yeah i don't know man there's a lot of red flags on this deal he picked up his pen and he put it
right back down it's a trash logo a really cool thing to do if you're looking to get like objective like
uh commentary on this is just go search it on twitter there's a lot of like cool accounts that
give you like honest uh honest knee-jerk reactions uh i'm not biased at all yeah the the bots are i
understand why elon is so worried about the bots as it seems as though he's having a hard time combating these bots right now.
He's lost the war on bots.
That's okay.
Sometimes you gotta just let the bots infiltrate.
But I've always wondered how I can get $5,000
from some random doula lady.
Am I leaving money on the table not being verified
or signing up for that deal?
I will never...
$200 probably right now.
I will never get verified on Twitter if it means i have to pay instagram's a different story instagram's
a different because now you need like now you need like a check mark in order to make sure that you
can have like direct support from them um shout out to formula bone for getting the account back
oh we got it back got it back yesterday baby right right in time for the race huge yeah that's all i really have on elon i just
i know he's smarter than me but that's not saying anything no no he's definitely smarter than we are
i'm a classic dumb guy yeah he's definitely smarter than we are but at the same time like
it's this isn't this isn't the way i. Are we supposed to be calling it X now?
Like, we can't say we tweeted?
I'm not gonna do Zeet.
Dude, I... People are trying to make Zeet.
I Zeeted, dude.
No, Zeet sounds like something else.
Dude, call me Catherine Zeet Jones.
What's up?
We're not doing Zeet.
I'm trying to bust.
I'm trying to Zeet. Oh, Zeet, Zeet, goddamn. All right, we'reed. I'm trying to bust. I'm trying to Zeed.
Oh, Zeed, Zeed, goddamn.
All right, we're done.
I'm sorry.
I got nothing more on this.
Squarespace.
That's a site that I like.
Great logo.
There you go.
There you go.
That's all you need to know.
This podcast today, right now, is sponsored by our friends over at Squarespace.
I love Squarespace.
I just got an alert the other day that I started Sunday Scaries 10 years ago.
It turns out Sunday Scaries and Dave share a birthday.
Cool.
Makes it a lot easier for me to remember.
So I got an alert, and I was like, man, I'm so glad I went with Squarespace for this reason.
It's so good.
There's so many different things
you can do on Squarespace.
I do not have web design chops.
I can do graphic design.
Web design though?
How does that translate?
It's hard.
They have so many templates
that you can just mess with,
that you can tinker with,
that you need no design prowess at all
in order to make a good,
beautiful website.
They've got so many different features
that you can choose from, from their email marketing to their, uh, to their, their web shop.
You can sell products on there. You can sell your time. You can do gift cards. You can do it all
very easily. You can transfer that money from account to account. It's just, it's just very
simple to do everything through there. They have so many integrations, uh, without Squarespace,
I wouldn't have been able to create a website that allowed me to pursue a career in doing online content.
And there are so many other people out there, whether you're just selling small products, whether you're selling your time, whether you're selling whatever.
There are so many people that have benefited from Squarespace and built their business on it.
And guess what?
Just by having Squarespace in the mix, you look like you're an operating business.
You look good.
I don't know what this business would look like without it.
No, no.
The fact that I can get in there and do some work,
that says a lot.
Because again, I'm a classic dumb guy.

Dave,
can I get a knee-jerk reaction
to Oppenheimer as someone who didn't see the movie this weekend?
Oh, they
hate this.
Yeah, I saw it.
I didn't see it in 70mm
reel-to-reel
IMAX. I didn't drive. Wow, you don't respect
movies? Then did you even see it? What's your point?
I will say I did see it at the Alamo Draft House,
which I think they're big enough now to where that's not just regional, right?
I know they're big in Dallas.
Are they nationwide?
They should be.
I'm not sure if they're on our side or not.
But it's a place where you can order food and beverage,
and they've got waiters who come out and bring you stuff.
How many tanks? Just one. Wow. you can order food and beverage and they've got you know waiters who come out and bring you stuff how many takes just one wow and i honestly like it wasn't like a a bad one it was just like i could sit here and hold it but i'm gonna be aware that i'm holding it it's gonna interfere
with my enjoyment of the movie so i just went there's about a minute and a half trip yep that's
how you do it though the as far as the theater they had the deal
like the seats have like the rumble pack in it basically yeah where you know it shakes vibrates
for certain explosions there are i didn't know i will say there's some explosions in uh oppenheimer
knee jerk take no i did no i didn't do that i didn't uh do the pop didn't do that I didn't do the popcorn trick You didn't do it in the movie?
I didn't put a little, never mind Were there any good sex scenes in Oppenheimer?
Yes, yeah, there were
Really? That was kind of a joke question
I wasn't expecting you to say yes
I've heard
I will say, that is one thing I've learned
Oppenheimer was not afraid to
He was not afraid to hook up with a lady
Did he hook up with Florence Pugh?
Yes, he did oh wow
don't don't bring your wife around oppenheimer that's all i'm gonna say him and the founder
ray crock i was gonna say he got that ray crock gene where he'll just take your girl yeah crazy
a phenomenal movie robert downey jr's. I've heard really good things about him, Dave.
Killian Murphy is excellent.
You get lost in his eyes.
Yeah.
He's just an interesting-looking, handsome, hot guy.
His name's Killian with a hard C.
You don't see a lot of hard Cs.
Also, I believe he's from the Cork County area, Will.
Wow.
Are we brothers?
We might be related.
Distant cousins of Killian.
That would be fucking sick
are we peaky blinders technically too uh my wife's re-watching peaky blinders and i'm like
all right why don't you calm down dude they've been calling me the zd blinder
except i've been zeding so hard randy's the leaky blinder
why is that you're just a sweaty guy Saw you walking to Coles the other day. Wouldn't you be the meaty blinder?
Mead.
Oh, yes, mead.
I got to put in some more yeast nutrient in today.
I saw some takes on Twitter, people being like,
it could have been like two hours, could have been like 90 minutes.
Yeah.
I have no issues with the length of the film,
but that is something I've never had an issue with.
I thought The Irishman was great. I hate long movies. It does not drag on. Okay. At least it didn't. Now,
I did something a little strange. We went to like a 10.30 a.m. showing. No, I like that. Something
I don't think I've ever done. I like that. It felt good to get out of there and still have my
afternoon. I did that when I saw Mid90s. Okay. Yeah. Well, then you know. That's a matinee,
technically, right? Yeah. It's a matinee. I think anything that's like a that's a matinee technically right yeah it's
matinee i think anything before the sun goes down to matinee right sure right like randy knows yeah
when the sun goes i will say
i think all in all people are going to like this film. They already are. The critics love it.
It's going to win the awards.
There's a,
there's some cameos.
There's the,
the,
the supporting cast is,
is quite heavy.
There's one cameo that I,
I laughed at when I saw this person and I don't know if you want me to say who it is.
It's probably out there that this person's in it.
Matt Damon.
No,
Matt Damon.
He's a big part of it. He's a big part of it.
Okay.
I didn't even know he was in it until I saw it recently.
Oh, okay.
Your boy.
It's Remy Malek.
And, you know, he's a very controversial figure around here.
Talented guy.
You know what?
Was better in this, in his limited role, than he was in Queen.
Wow.
I'll say it.
Wow.
I liked his performance in in uh the queen
movie all in all fantastic do i need to go see it in theaters yes okay i'll do that i'd say so i
don't think you need to go out of your way to go to the imax but if you have a chance to do that do
it because there's only two there's only two locations in austin area in texas where you can
watch this movie in 70 millimeter dallas and san antonio correct how's austin not have one yet
you're not a real city unless you have 70 mil have they released this on vinyl
yeah i see vinyls on audio medium and you were aware could i play like what if i played like
oh how's the soundtrack yeah what if i played like a pink
floyd vinyl over oppenheimer dude you'd have to find that one three hour uh pink floyd yeah yeah
no you just run it back yeah call it just on loop and it actually somehow plays i'll see it in
theaters i think i will now at this point see it before barbie is i think i'm just gonna wait for
barbie to come out on on video i don't i don't think i need to see it on the big screen i don't think i need to rush to
it whereas it seems as though it's it seems like oppenheimer is a go pay for this movie type of
movie i don't really want to give hollywood any money right now yeah they're fucking our writers
and our actors a lot of people did yeah i think barbie did like
150 mil opening weekend am i crazy thinking that like that i'm surprised that that's not more of
a narrative with people or is it like hey support the actors while they still have this work like
support their work right now uh i did i did see some of that last week but i feel like um
big big entertainment the big studio execs they uh they have their uh their clutches on the media
so they can they can kind of set the narrative i've also seen like from the writers too that like
they're not calling for a boycott from the normal person they're saying don't cross picket lines
don't scab but like you can still go watch movies they're not calling for any of that okay okay yeah
because i have wondered if we need to feel guilty for like going to see these movies most likely of all of the wash media people to
be a scab uh brett yeah he just doesn't support labor yeah yeah i think that's the thing yeah
uh i'm excited for y'all to see it though it is it is the actual story it is a lot there's a lot
more to him than I think people know.
It's not just like, like, I'll bang your wife.
Like, well, yeah, he will potentially bang your wife, but, um, just, uh, just his, his
relationships and who he has close ties to.
I'm excited to see it.
It's not a story I know anything about.
Yeah.
I might read a book on Oppenheimer.
I did a term paper on him and I don't know anything.
I want you to send it to me. I'll review it.
Okay. What'd you get?
Probably a B-plus or something like that.
No, you put off C-plus vibes.
No, I was like B-plus.
You're so fucking hungover.
Yeah, when I was a junior in high school.
Hey, Randy, when you were on Lake Travis yesterday,
did you do any cocaine with any sharks?
No, there's no sharks in Lake Travis,
but there's an alligator in Lady Bird Lake.
There's also a bunch of dead dudes.
Is that true? Did somebody put an alligator
in there? It is now.
Dylan said he was searching for some gator tails.
We're starting a rumor that there's a gator in the lake
and seeing how long it becomes myth
and legend in Austin.
Surprised it's not. I'm surprised there's not one.
Yeah, can they not just live there?
Yeah.
It'd be kind of chill.
You could put one in there.
It would scare off all those people that are doing all the supping,
pissing in the water, making it all gross over there.
Stand-up paddleboarding.
Something I love doing.
Oh, that's what, okay.
Stand-up paddleboarding, supp, gotcha.
Cocaine sharks may be consuming drugs dumped off the coast of Florida,
sending them a little crazy, per scientists. Are familiar with scientists they're reporting this see it's important to note that we are in the midst of shark week so big shark big shark
pushing this you always have to have your blinders or your uh you always have to be on high alert
whenever it's shark week just to make sure that big shark doesn't commit benefits from this story
yep shark week yep yep why are people dumping drugs off florida like if you're gonna like if you're gonna bring flow
drugs out of the boat like it's probably failed attempts to do so oh people just like dropping
stuff from planes and shit i feel like a couple you'll every other month you'll see a story like
family on beach finds 10 kilos of cocaine washed ashore and i'm like is that why dylan's on vacation yeah
is that why he goes to the texas coast for vacation
didn't the cartel have like didn't they make submarines just for transporting drugs like
they they had like little yeah they might have been more submersible than anything there's a difference you can't go if you go yeah the pressure they only have 48 hours of
oxygen i don't think i i just part of me just doesn't think that like trafficking like a huge
amount of drugs would be that difficult okay um like if you get if you i guess doing it consistently which is how you make a business out
of it that's kind of a necessity you think if you said like one time if you were like will
we need you to get this semi-truck of drugs across somewhere i think i could figure it out you got to
get it through customs you gotta get through the the border the customs parts the hard part i guess
you can always boof it.
Yeah.
If you put enough of it in your butt,
no one can really say anything.
Yeah.
No, they can't.
But they might put you through the croissant thing at TSA.
It's true.
They just lie you down there on the conveyor belt.
You just go through.
It should do that.
Just FYI for all the people out there, the croissantissant looking security machine takes longer than the other one okay so if you're if you're on
if you're in a rush go to the other machine don't go to the croissant that's good intel
um is it possible that this is what's got the orcas all
aggressive i think so i i kind of think big orca is sitting here like wait wait wait shouldn't we
be getting talked about right now like i know it's shark week but if you're big orca you got to be
on this story quickly they need that orca week yeah even though that we kind of have this podcast
which is basically but if you said if you said they were pivoting one year from shark week to
killer whale week you would watch that i if anything i think that sharkweed could benefit from a little just refresh.
Completely agree.
So to show you real life colliding with what we do here, very online,
my neighbor was telling me his daughter's on a trip in Alaska and that she went whale watching and that they saw a pod of orcas.
And all I wanted to do was like do orca bits
reference all the stories yeah i was like there's no way he's seen these these stories dude i feel
like it's orcas are doing i feel like the orca side of things has really done a good job of
explaining how dangerous they've been lately though yes i just don't know if it's made it to
i assume he gets his news mainly through um maybe maybe tom brokaw or whoever's uh through some zeets what's
the guy david mirror too much he's not he's definitely not zeting dude he's eating god
i don't know man i i'm sad no one's not here to do cocaine sharks but we'll bring it up again i'm
sure well studies have shown that pharmaceuticals including cocaine methamphetamines and ketamine have affected fish ketamine is uh they're using
that to treat depression not laughing at that i'm just laughing at the idea of like depressed
sharks just getting ketamine off ketamine is one of those things where like people talk about it
i've no clue it actually does to you uh you've been at k-hole no i think it's different i don't
know no i think it's the same is it i think you go in the k-hole? No. I think it's different. I don't know. No, I think it's the same. Is it?
I think you go in the K-hole.
No, but there's ketamine treatment available in Austin.
Yeah, they do it for PTSD.
PTSD.
Oh, okay.
Actually, just PTS, Randy.
What does it look like to be in a K-hole?
I don't know.
I said that I was in a K-hole because I I had so much Kohl's cash to spend this weekend.
That's a great contribution.
Thank you.
Randy used to have a scheme
where he would order stuff from Amazon
and return it to Kohl's
so that he could get the $5 Kohl's cash.
It wasn't a scheme.
I think he might have been committing mail fraud.
All I know is that they don't offer
the $5 Kohl's cash anymore when you turn stuff.
Did you?
That was actually the best.
That was the best.
When I would order something from Amazon and Randyandy would be like oh i'll go return
it and i was like fuck yes yeah because i'll just get five dollars kohl's cash yeah if i if if i
could get five dollars in cash if i dropped off like sally's returns i would i would be much more
likely to return things but that's just simply not happening yeah i need i need something at the end
of the tunnel i need a little kohl's cash dangled my way. Yeah.
It's just not, it just doesn't work.
I don't need to return this, like,
pair of shoes that you shouldn't have bought in the first place.
Are you going to be mad that if we go as a company
Thursday to see Barbie?
I'd be a little bummed, yeah.
I do think that we have an opportunity as a company
to see more movies in the middle of the week
while we don't have to pay a babysitter.
Alamo is right there, by the way.
It's under heavy construction.
It doesn't, it's not,
it feels like you're kind of at like an airport
that's getting like a wing.
I don't like that.
It feels airport-y.
I don't like that.
The theater, yeah, they're doing all new seating.
What's Dave Roth's theater snack?
What'd you order the other day, my dude?
I didn't eat any food.
Alyssa got a baked pretzel.
I ordered a Lone Star at 10.30 in the morning.
Ew.
My birthday, man.
Will you know my snacks, man?
I don't buy them there.
Of course, I bring them in because who wouldn't?
But Nerd's Gummy Clusters.
