Starting point is 00:00:00 The McElroy brothers are not experts, and their advice should never be followed. Travis insists he's a sexpert, but if there's a degree on his wall, I haven't seen it.

Starting point is 00:02:12 TravNation. There is no way I'm going to blow that up. Listen, listen, uh-huh. We thought, we thought some of us thought that episode 700 might be enough of a turning point that it would be the moment to bring about a coup. Yeah But it was always have-harded Trav. It was always a not coming on your door soon Yeah, man. I'm sorry about that. I like hey, it's not ready. Can I tell you it's a dead drop kind of fit like I Didn't you don't you don't you triggered it. It's a dead man's trigger the second you say this point blank
Starting point is 00:02:42 You say the coup word Deadman's trick of the second you say, Grace Point Blank. You say the COUP word? Yeah. Grace Point Blank. If you said one time, Juice, I said cup weird and a Trav Nation agent did come to my house. Trav Nation missionary, please,
Starting point is 00:02:54 go when we go on like you. A Trav Nation volunteer. Thank you. Welcome to episode seven. Guys, we thought it would be really funny to do like a 700, in discussing like, here's another. Don't say we. I just, I thought about in discussing the,
Starting point is 00:03:11 hey, here's a big round number, a clean hundo. Let's, should we do something? Months ago. Months ago. We're definitely planning it. I will say, I've been listening to podcasts for a long time. Yeah. But when I, I will say this,
Starting point is 00:03:24 that when I dip into a podcast and I see 700 episodes, my reaction is still like, you know what I mean? It seems like too many. There's something plucky. It seems like a lot. There's something plucky and like kind of nostalgic about 600. Because you see a 600 and you're like, wow, they're still at it. 700 is starting to get a little bit like still at it.
Starting point is 00:03:46 Why isn't this a TV show? Yeah. You know what I mean? Well, again. Again, yeah. We did that technically speaking. We did do that. We did some webisodes.
Starting point is 00:03:57 I was thinking a 700 club bit would be fun. And then I realized that no one would know what that is. And the people who did Wouldn't like it. Yeah, that's true So that's a lose I was thinking we could talk about the new avatar live-action TV show and what does that have to do with 700 you ask nothing. I'm just very excited. Yeah, the first adaptation the first live-action Adaptation of Avatar the last airbender. I will hear about that when you watch the first live action avatar. Sorry, what? The first live action avatar, James Cameron's avatar,
Starting point is 00:04:32 which is the first live action avatar. We'll see. OK. Hey, Justin, does Avatar the Last Airbender appear an avatar? Because if if so, and I have somehow managed to miss that information all these years, boy is there egg on my face. Maybe kick ass. I have an exciting treat for you guys.
Starting point is 00:04:52 Oh boy. Because I have been in England. I don't know if you knew this. Oh, I was. Yeah. As they would say. And I went to England. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:05:00 And I'm, I'm still just, I'm picking up a hint of, I love a hint of an accent. The King's English. Thank you. Thank you. I noticed you were podcasting on the a hint of the King's English. Thank you. I noticed you were podcasting on the other side of the road. So that excites a lot. And I have a great game for you guys because I really got immersed in the culture,
Starting point is 00:05:17 really soaked it up. So I have a great game for you. I don't wanna thank David for helping me to pull this list together. He's a British friend. I have a list of British television shows. Fuck yeah. And I have a list of British television shows
Starting point is 00:05:35 that I made up that do not exist. So I'm going to give you guys some titles and you're gonna tell me if it is a show that I made up or is a real British television program. Okay. Are you ready for this game? Yeah, I'm feeling pretty confident. I'm feeling not. I got Dr. Who and Faulty Towers. Are you gonna say either of them? Okay, here we go. Ready? It ain't half-hot, Mom. It ain't half-hot, Mom. It ain't half-hot mum it ain't half-hot mum oh It ain't half-hot mum that's certainly feel less confident. Yeah, that's not a show

I think Anorak of the Year. I don't know that word. You keep saying fucking word, like you keep saying words I don't know. I think Anorak is like a sweater. Sports sweater of the year?
Starting point is 00:12:51 I think so. But think about why would they name it that? Why would they feature that? They have great sweaters over there, man. I don't know what to tell you. They also call them jumpers sometimes. I mean, I just Googled it and Travis is right. It's a parka. I know it is.

Starting point is 00:13:49 I made that one up. Yes. Congratulations. Travis. I mounted a real comeback there. You swept. Telly title tellers my name of this game that I revealed. That's a good one.
Starting point is 00:14:00 There can't be that many more funny named. Hey listen, Brits, you know how to get at me if you guys go ones hit me up This is an advice show This is an advice show and we're gonna help some people if you need help email mbmba.maximumfund.org I recently moved to a new part of town and so I have a new grocery store In an attempt to ingratiate myself to an employee there and maybe make a friend I made a joke about having that dog in me. Huh. Since then, this employee has asked me,
Starting point is 00:14:31 you got that dog in you? And I panicked and barked in response. Brothers, this has been going on for months. They asked me if I've got that dog in me and I bark in the grocery store. Is there any way I could get out of this joke or have I made my bed, dog bed, and I bark in the grocery store, is there any way I can get out of this joke or have I made my bed dog bed and I just got to sit down stay as from a dop don't shop in hilltop apple. Okay, it's really important when you're trying to make new friends and you're trying to meet people and I think we've all fallen into this. It's really important that you try to act like the person that you are, and not the person that you guess that person would like. So you made a read on that person, you're like,
Starting point is 00:15:13 this seems like the con person, it's really gonna dig if I say I got that dog in me. And that person's like, ah, Kendred Spirit. Excellent. You just assume, right, that original, no, now I'm interrogating you. Oh, you're interrogating me. Okay, please.
Starting point is 00:15:28 Can you tell by his body posture, Justin? He's just entered. He does have a very like bad cop look. You just- I'm gonna be good cop, I'll be good cop. Go ahead Kevin. Okay, you just assume everyone's gonna love original flavor juice.
Starting point is 00:15:41 Everyone's gonna come. I don't. I don't, I don't. But you have to make everyone happy and like you. Yes. Yes. This is this is. Hey, Justin, I like you just the way you are. Thank you. And if you admit that you did the crime, it's not going to change the way I feel about you at all. If you meet Justin in public in this setting, you're going to get a very mellow, very chill, like very all the rough edges sanded off, right?
Starting point is 00:16:06 Yeah. I've got about 10 minutes of good normal person material that I can pull off, right? I would not employ a phrase like, I've got that dog in me, even though it would make me insidiously memorable. Right. Right.
Starting point is 00:16:19 I would hear myself say it now and be like, wait, I'm wrong because this kicks ass. I have a friend for life and also a go to call and response. Fuck. At my local grocery store. At a fucking grocery store. Now there is also a chance here.
Starting point is 00:16:36 I'm, I'm trying to think of like when this joke, when this joke would be employed and maybe you're like, Hey, you know, you're new to the story. You don't know everything is you ask that person like, Hey, you're like, hey, you know, you're new to this story, you don't know everything. You ask that person like, hey, where's like the dog food? And they're like, oh, you're looking for dog food. And you're like, yeah, I got that dog in me. And now they're thinking this is like a shaggy dog situation
Starting point is 00:16:56 where maybe perhaps literally they're worried about you. Yeah. You have a dog. 100%. It was not because they wanted to buy dog food. They probably checked out with, I'm going to gonna say maybe they were preparing for a Super Bowl party and in doing so they bought a dozen packages of Condoms of little smokies Just a little pepperage farm little sausages ready to go and they were probably like wow
Starting point is 00:17:20 That's a lot of little smokies that you're about to eat and they said I got that dog in me That's the way to funny to suspect. I don't know when the phrase I've got that dog in me might be important Yeah, it's not when you're referring to having actual dog like characteristic. No, I'm no I'm not now Yeah, I should on the but I also didn't think it was I'm gonna eat twelve packages of little smokies by myself. I I am Do you guys have relationships of this ilk? And Griffin, I know you, you're probably still establishing them. Trab, do you have any in your area that you have like that are patterned responses like this situations where you see someone at a store you go to and you,
Starting point is 00:17:59 you have like a beat or a routine? I wouldn't know. Absolutely not. I'll give you time to think because I have a lot. There's my lady at El Ranchido. Why didn't you just ask yourself that question, Justin? Why did you ask me? Do you want one of us to ask you that question?
Starting point is 00:18:14 Well, I gave you the thought starter and then I'll answer the question, then you can answer the question as well because I got my lady at El Ranchido that said every time she sees me, she's like, I know, I know, not so many chips because they send a lot of chips. And I had to say, like, guys, a lot of these chips are going to waste. Please don't send me chips. I'm here every week. And they're like, OK, no problem. So that's kind of our back and forth.
Starting point is 00:18:33 And she says, I know, not so many chips. And then she doesn't give me as many chips. Yeah. You're just your little chips, Justin, to them. Yeah. Yeah. Just Justin, just Justin, little chips. Mm hmm. There is the guy at the liquor store that calls me Mr. Four Roses. That's fine. Did you walk in there with four roses one time? I just buy four roses there all the time. And I buy the biggest
Starting point is 00:18:59 bottle they have because I don't like going to the liquor store that much. Have you thought about saying please Mr. Four Roses is my father, oh, I'm sorry, is Four Roses? It's a whiskey, it's a whiskey. Okay, I thought you were making floral purchases at the liquor store every time you went there. Yeah, that would be cool actually. The story of the dad who buys four flowers at the liquor store every week when he goes there
Starting point is 00:19:23 is a short story. It's heartwarming. I actively go outside and thank my sanitation workers when they take my trash. Yes, that's huge. And they love that. Yeah, everyone loves being thanked. Griffin, do you have any interaction to people
Starting point is 00:19:37 more than once? You miss that? Did you have that in Austin? Did you have like a little community there that you? Yeah, man. I had like friends and stuff, but I didn't, I didn't, you know, COVID was hard on. Yeah, it was.
Starting point is 00:19:51 COVID ruined a lot of our, a lot of stuff. A lot of my gimmicks. Like I don't even remember a lot of them. There was the Planet Fitness when they, I would walk in there and they would throw a medicine ball at me as soon as I came in, but I would never know what the weight of the medicine ball was going to be.
Starting point is 00:20:07 And so it was always a gamble of like, do I catch it or do I get out of the way? That was Tony who did that at the Planet Fitness in Austin. That was sort of a game that we played. I had Larry at the post office downtown, near the one on Veterans Memorial, the main branch. That's where my P.O. Box is.
Starting point is 00:20:27 Yeah. And he would get mad at me every time I came in, because I hadn't come in frequently enough to collect the packages and they'd be... Sorry, I think we all have had that for when we had P.O. Boxes at various times. The number of just withering looks I've received from our nation's post office workers for the the sheer number of what is happening on this show. What I mean like I'm people write in for advice they ask they wrote that the funniest thing I've ever heard which is I made the joke I got that dog in me and now they say I got the dog in you and I'm forced to bark and you guys are like let me tell you about how I get
Starting point is 00:21:00 chips in a restaurant and I get too much real a trap Trav Trav think really fucking carefully right now Think about the fucking razors edge that you Travis Patrick McElroy the first are Dancing on right now. Do you realize you are at you did you didn't take out a loan from the bank? You robbed the bank and you had this all this money in your hands and you're what? Wobbling down the street and coins are spilling out. You robbed the bank and you had all this money in your hands and you're wobbling down the street and coins are spilling out. You're like, back on target, everybody.
Starting point is 00:21:29 Keep on task. Yeah. Unbelievable. I'm just saying we could be discussing what to do instead of barking. There's nothing to do. There's nothing to do. You're in it.
Starting point is 00:21:40 Here's what you do. It's sick. Ask me. Griffin, ask me, you got that dog in you? Hey, you got that dog in you, Trav? Not anymore. Bad. Bad. Bad.
Starting point is 00:21:49 Not today, feeling a little down. No, you're not. What about you? You do have that dog in you. It's okay to have, okay, this moment of regularity in this person's life and in your life, it brings you both joy. There's one thing that you know is gonna work out
Starting point is 00:22:02 and if it's this guy comes in, he's gonna say something about have the dog in you. That's great for everybody. We love this regularity. Okay. Then how do, if you're looking for new friend, how do you elevate? I got that dog in me. Do you have that dog in you?
Starting point is 00:22:14 Let's go to a dog park together by which I mean, hang out. Now this is cool. Actually. If you can, next time you go to check out, ask him first. Hey, you got that dog in you? And then see what happens. Do you want some of my dog in you? Wait.
Starting point is 00:22:30 Do you want me to put my dog in you? Woof woof. Woof woof, here comes the dog. Hey, do you all want me to do a wiki-hub segment joke? Yes, please. Yeah, sure. I mean, this is- 700. If you have one ready. 700th one, sure. Great. I mean this is. 700.
Starting point is 00:22:45 If you have one ready. 700th one, thank you Scotty for sending this in. It's a big one. And it's how to fake that you know about football. Oh. But I'm not gonna know. This is maybe coming in maybe a week or two late. But.
Starting point is 00:23:02 This is a good time to start. Cause you don't want to fake like you know football is a super bowl, too high stakes. Yeah, you get some practice in with some low stakes games. I am, I'm on, I will say I'm on a fucking real tight swivel with this article. If it tries to get out of line and teach me about football, Yes.
Starting point is 00:23:20 I'll be furious. Uh-oh. I mean, let's skip step one, which is learn the basic rules. Okay. Now that's not faking it. Now, now, hold on. Now, now, hold on.
Starting point is 00:23:29 I know football, by the way. I watch football. I know how to football. I'm not trying to represent, like I don't understand the rules of football. I'm just saying, I don't want this article to teach me. I've seen football in the background of a couple of Justin's B-reels,
Starting point is 00:23:40 and it's an exciting era. It's a peak in the Justin's life that I never expected. Football era. I mean, what they are defining is the basic rules. That I think is sort of a sliding scale. I think that you should at least know that the ball is supposed to go to the other guy's side. And if it does, there's, you get seven points or six points.
Starting point is 00:24:06 Even that, even that, I think the only step one should be be able to visually identify football versus other sports. It's the longest game. It last long. The field is so fucking big. It's crazy how big this fucking Jason Park posted a TikTok. How in a three hour televised sport, a football game, how many minutes of actual football are being put,
Starting point is 00:24:34 like not like- It's one hour, not big. Not big, 60, yeah. Not game clock, not game clock. I mean, people playing actively, playing football, tossing the ball around, running, playing football. I say-
Starting point is 00:24:44 I've got to guess guess 25 to 28 minutes. 80. 12. It's boring. 12 minutes of actual shit happening. And the rest is talking in ads in a three hour telecast. Yeah. 12 minutes of football.
Starting point is 00:25:01 All right. So you don't need to know that though. I think I'm just going to go. I like football. I'd say So you don't need to know that though. I think I'm just into. I like football. I say it's wild. It is wild. It is actually why I as the type of brain that I have like football compared to basketball. Basketball is so much happening all the time.
Starting point is 00:25:15 Concealing. Check out for good stretches. It's got some respiraries built in football. 12 minutes spread out over three hours. That is exactly my level of concentration. I would love it. But baseball's like white noise. That's the answer.
Starting point is 00:25:29 I would love a 12 minute long football game. If they're like, all right gang, the Ravens are playing the Oilers out there. This Oilers is not. That would be sick. That would be sick. They just in turn may line the football into me. I don't have a lot of time.
Starting point is 00:25:42 I need the quibi of football. I need quibble. Just don't have a lot of time. I need the quibby of football. I need quibball Just like they score a touchdown and immediately start running to the other side. I don't even need to punch frankly He's Casper to come out be like I got a plan to save quibby We've got an exclusive multi-year multi-billion The field should be 10,000 yards long. And you both play from one end to the other? Both teams start at the middle and whoever gets the ball furthest down their zone
Starting point is 00:26:16 in 12 minutes via any, am I making rugby? Am I? Just give them two, okay, two balls, one for each team. They just start running. And however far they can make it, whoever runs the farthest. I gotta read this kickass little carve out here in the rules segment,
Starting point is 00:26:33 because it says, lots of the sports little rules change yearly and even ardent fans can have a hard time keeping up. Chances are, if there is a new rule, the commentators will explain to the audience possibly even several times. So keep listening to them I love the idea of you watching a televised
Starting point is 00:26:48 Football game with your friends and not getting that a first down happened and then being like must be one of those new new fangled rules You can't hit the guy when he doesn't have the ball Soft NFL rules are new. I hate him. No, I've been watching a lot of college football. It must be, sorry, I sometimes forget to switch over in my brain.
Starting point is 00:27:13 Yeah, that's assuming that- Super professional. Yeah. Find out a few players' names. If you wanna look like you know what you're talking about during a football game, you should probably know a few of the people involved. Quarterbacks are usually the most popular
Starting point is 00:27:24 and famous players involved. The knowing the names of the coaches in a few, no fucking way, no fucking way are you gonna make me remember the names of coaches. No way. Okay, okay. Listen, come to Travis to actually learn how to fake it. Call their numbers out like their nicknames for them.
Starting point is 00:27:41 Are you like, come on, number 15. That's 15. Come on. 12's kicking ass out there today. The, come on, number 15. That's 15. Come on. 12's kicking ass out there today. The names are on there, guys. Yeah. Yeah, that's why you're avoiding saying the name. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:51 You can also just give them your own nicknames. Like Striker. Or you're just like, uh. There goes Striker. Striker's Striker. Holy shit. Yeah. Do you mean Patrick Mahomes?
Starting point is 00:28:04 Yeah. Striker. No, man. Striker. Do you mean Striker? Do you mean Patrick Mahomes? Yeah, man strike Do you mean strike do you mean strider strike strider? Yeah, there's strider. There's Bilbo Gandalf the catch was a damn there's Gandalf again Look at that Gandalf out there running so fast like Gandalf did I have practical advice that I think would work What if you what if you get super drilled in on one player That's what everything about the kicker and that so like you only care about it And when the kicker comes out all of a sudden you're a font of knowledge. Yeah, one's gonna suspect Yeah, sliver, you know, we've taken a sample this sample says they know everything about football
Starting point is 00:28:41 We've taken a course sample. This course sample says they know everything about football. It doesn't even have to be a current player. Cause you could say, you know who that guy reminds me of? Neon Dion. That's fucking good, Kristen. You could say, what's great about Neon Dion, Dion Sanders, football and baseball, which every sport you're watching,
Starting point is 00:28:59 you can say that's shadows. I'm getting a whiff of Neon Dion off that guy. Oh, I like that. The shadow of Neon Dion out there. You can also throw out things along those lines of like, oh, they haven't been in this good years. And for some reason, that's always true. Or saying something like, this feels like the start of a dynasty.
Starting point is 00:29:19 Always true. Yeah. Um, like these are things, only at the start of the season you don't want to employ that Let me be clear last game of the season when they're like, I don't know like three and twelve or whatever You don't want to be like this is the start of a kind of stay. I I let's make this practical for our friends at home I think you have to know At least if you want to keep this rules going for football players names And I know that's a lot lot but you can't say if
Starting point is 00:29:46 Somebody throws like wait team or just total total total total Because main thrower the main catcher I mean throw the main catcher the main runner the main hitter if you can't if you can't say like you know I hate it. Nobody knows anybody's name on the defensive line in the real world. Nobody football guys do football guys Definitely, I guess are we faking like expertise or just the good news is. Refrigerator Perry William refrigerator Perry. Yes. Was a defensive player. I think fuck we're showing our asses even doing jokes about the thing. Research the teams playing. No. Thank you. That's learning about it.
Starting point is 00:30:25 That is where that is a level of fidelity that you should not fuck around with. You do not need that. You do not need that. I think you get mad about the refs. That's a classic, right? If the referee stopped, you just yell let them play. And I think yeah, that's a good one. Let them play. You say let them play. This is why I think the vocabulary you say, let them play. You say NFL, huh, no fun left. And then everybody around will be like, yes, pound it. And then you like go to the bathroom and lay on the floor for about a half hour.
Starting point is 00:30:56 It's just like, OK, OK, OK. I mean, I think you can get away with a lot of thinking by just learning some key vocabulary. Like you feel like, oh, good drive, right? That, oh, that feels so, that feels so right. Doesn't it? A good drive. You learn when the first down happens.
Starting point is 00:31:14 Because if you can say like, that's first down right there. No, no, no. That'll, that's too much to learn. The fourth, the, once you get in the first downs, that stuff's all confusing. You don't want to worry about any of that stuff. It's fundamental agree It's not it's not it's it's bored. It's too hard It's too hard to know when they got they draw a line with computers now And if they cross that line you just say first down but they look four times
Starting point is 00:31:39 But sometimes they do it again. It's it's it doesn't make any sense I don't want I don't want to learn a bunch of shit about the rules of football, but I will find some trivia to discuss. These can be obscure facts about the game. Did you guys know, or maybe a crazy story involving one or more of the players?
Starting point is 00:32:00 Absolutely not. But the fun facts about football, did you know the stitches on a football are made from violin bow strings? Not a lot of people know about that. Well, the stitches on a football, it's one lace done all the way through. So you can tell.
Starting point is 00:32:18 No, actually that's how it used to be when they made balls out of, you know, hide and stuff like that, but now it's 3D printed. Another one you could throw out, someone gets hurt. Oh, a lot of entries this year. So many entries. Always true. Because football is an overly unnecessarily violent game. Even if it's the first game of the season. A lot of entries this year. A lot of big names getting taken out by football in football. Did you hear about the guy who had a football thrown through his chest last week?
Starting point is 00:32:53 You didn't hear about that? Google it. I'm gonna go to the bathroom while you Google it. Listen to the commentators. These people are paid to explain the game to the audience, so take advantage of that. That's awesome. And he gets a first down. I said it first.
Starting point is 00:33:09 I said it first. The guy came after me. This is why I hope they said what they did on Nickelodeon for the Super Bowl and have Patrick and SpongeBob commenting through every game because then I would love to have a very one-sided disagreement with SpongeBob's calls where I'm like, no, SpongeBob, that was not.
Starting point is 00:33:29 I disagree, SpongeBob. Yeah. Because then you seem like you know a lot about football and hate SpongeBob. How do you guys think they deal with players who are injured on the field? In the SpongeBob broadcast? They have to turn it all off. Why do they have to turn it all off. What? They have to turn it off? You can't have a fucking, you can't have
Starting point is 00:33:47 fucking squidward behind a man whose career has just ended in front of him. Like, get off your winner, like you can't do it. You need an extra leg, I'll give you one of mine. Oh no, he's been down too long, he's getting the cat dog leg hump. Oh, cat dog. Oh no, no. Oh, there's Larry the lobster dancing leg hump. Ah, cat dog. Oh no, no.
Starting point is 00:34:05 Oh, there's Larry the lobster dancing behind him. It's all better now. But what if Plankton comes out and he's like, I did it. I got another one. I've built an Android to hide in its brain, and now I'll take your place in the game. Make occasional comments. This is starting to reach expert level, like,
Starting point is 00:34:28 Sutterfuge, because I feel like you could probably just sit there and like, all right. I guess maybe that's what they're talking about, but they specifically are saying, it's best to keep your comments as generic as possible. Something like a what-a-play or great move can contribute to the conversation without having to actually say anything specific now
Starting point is 00:34:45 I will say someone gets injured on the field and you go what a play or That's where he just yell got him. Yeah, somebody gets tackled into a camera person who then crumples Like a like a can and you go what a big play is Good you should understand, before you do that, you should understand what team you like and the other team people. That is, yeah, because you should only say anything when the when the team you like is throwing the ball around, like, because you could say what a play when the bad guys do something
Starting point is 00:35:21 and everyone in the room be like, Judas, they don't like you anymore. If you promised it, listen, I have to admit, you gotta admit, good play, right? I think you can get away with that. But here's my question for you based on this article, boys. How many times do you think you could employ the phrase, great move, but for people like, hey, yeah, I was just thinking textbook in my head.
Starting point is 00:35:42 That was the phrase. That's good. So we're coming up with the best generic thing to say at a football party that you can drop maybe a dozen times without people clocking it. Textbook is gonna get flagged, I'm afraid. You're thinking more than classic. What about there it is?
Starting point is 00:35:59 Fundamentals. There it is implies that it is a good thing that has happened. You may not have that awareness. Okay, Juice, but if we strip down to that, then the only thing that works is wow. No, they could fuck up like, text book. Text book, they're always fucked up like this. What about tighten up?
Starting point is 00:36:18 Tighten up, come on guys. Get it in there. Or, and when they do something good, you say, that's tight. You guys are really tight. Hey loosen up a little listen. I was some fun out there When when the team I like doesn't have the ball the only thing I the the nuance of the game is completely lost on me The only thing I'll ever say at that point is all right big stop We need a turnover All right, big stop. Big stop. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Turn over, come on, we need to turn over. Getting this going too, I did it instinctively, but like, get a little clap going,
Starting point is 00:36:49 it's just really into it. And maybe like a readjusting your seat, like okay, let's get, come on. This is a big one. Oh, this is a big one. This is a big one works always, because they only play 12 minutes of the sport. It's all always pretty big.
Starting point is 00:37:01 We need a big stop, big stop here, come on. Or a big go. I think just a big one is preferable. One thing that this article doesn't mention, I mean it does say find out which team everybody's cheering for and sort of focus your efforts on them, which is very good. What they don't tell you is that some of the times
Starting point is 00:37:19 the jerseys look mad similar, extremely. When I started watching Blue's hockey in like 2017, and we watched a lot of it because we had a newborn and didn't have much else to do. He loved hockey. He freaking loved hockey. And the number of times that the Blues were playing a team with Blue in their jersey, and they would score a goal,
Starting point is 00:37:41 and I'd be like, yes, baby! And Rachel'd be like, that's actually the bad guys team And it's very it's embarrassing every time. They don't warn you about that. So you just always have to keep your head on a swivel I Think by the way football is thinking about this the quarterback should have special colored jerseys So that everybody knows not to hit them too hard, right. Like they like goalies have special jerseys in European football, in real football. And so why don't they give special colored jerseys and like extra padding and maybe a pillow on their front and on their butt for quarterbacks or better yet, put them
Starting point is 00:38:20 in a pod that can't be reached. I mean, they don't, they wear special little pads from what I understand. So you should be able to identify the quarterback. Where's little pads? They need bigger pads though. They're precious. But they can't...
Starting point is 00:38:34 Oh, spikes is awesome. Airbags. What about that? You get hit, they just inflate out and knock all the defenders away. They should be on a series of rip cords so that after they throw the ball, they can be pulled upward into the sky so that no one can hurt them.
Starting point is 00:38:50 I love that. Robotic avatars. Guys, we gotta stop making better versions of football. If it was this cool, everybody would watch it. You know what I mean? I'd meet these explainers. I say put the quarterback up on like a three foot tall pillar so he can't be reached.
Starting point is 00:39:04 Yeah. He can get down off it if he wants to run. Yeah. Then he's making the choice to make himself vulnerable. Um, I don't want to, I've, that's all the football I've got in me. Touchdown. What a touchdown. We're gonna take a break of to go to the Money Zone and then we'll be right back with you right after this. It can be really overwhelming trying to find clothes, especially if you don't really know what your style is, or your maybe in a
Starting point is 00:39:36 transitional period, you're you got an event coming up, you're not sure what's appropriate. The answer to all these questions, my friends, is Citrix. We all on the show have used it and loved it, and it is service where you're gonna get a stylist that understands your look, your vibe, they're gonna ask you questions. How much you wanna spend on shoes?
Starting point is 00:39:56 What kind of hat do you enjoy? What's appropriate for your workplace, et cetera, et cetera. What events you got? You tell them all these things, budget preferences, that's a big one, and they're going to send you boxes. I've got a new Justin. You've just inspired me. I have a new tagline for Stitch Fix.

Starting point is 00:40:14 Okay. Hold on. Okay. Come here, moneymaker. Okay. Um, and they send you a box of five different pieces. You try on what you like, the stuff you don't like. You send back.
Starting point is 00:40:23 No problem. I just got an exchange. I got a great new denim jacket. It came, I was like, oh, I love this so much, but I've been working out, I've been worshiping at the steel temple, the iron god, who protects me in all things, and my shoulders, my lats getting too beefy, and I got bigger size, and now it's my new favorite jacket. High quality, good luck. Justin and I should get one of those, this episode two, where we get to talk about like how strong and huge we are.
Starting point is 00:40:55 Okay, all right. I think it's fair that we all get one per episode. I think it's kind of wild to do it in the middle of the advertisement, but just know we're gonna cash that in too. No, I just noticed that most of my clothes don't fit. And so I've had to use that first. Because of how huge you are.
Starting point is 00:41:08 That's now travel, you're borrowing. Next week you don't get to do one of these now because you need to open these up. No, that was the same one. That was an extension of the same one. All right. Yeah, got it. Anyway, style that makes you feel as good as you look

Starting point is 00:41:42 I would say by popping some kind of like fish or a bug or something in your ear that lets you just like know it. I was gonna say nano pills, like bots that are inside of pills that plug into your brain at specific junctions to teach you languages. That technology- Oh see mine is a reference though
Starting point is 00:42:00 cause the babble fish is what they- Yeah. Mine is also a reference. To what? Oh no. Oh no, it's cymbal shanks or whatever. It's skin-bullfrog it. But babble's also a really good way to learn a language because it lets you sort of immerse yourself virtually

I used Babel to brush up on my Spanish that I learned in high school and college and they didn't use for a very long time for a trip last year. And it is super great. It's easy to pick up and use. I think we're dancing around saying on the turlet, but like when it's implied. Yeah. It's implied when it's turlet time,
Starting point is 00:43:16 I'm not just, I'm removing something from my body. I want to add something to it too. Like a one in one out. Yes. They tried to call it potty talk and did not.

Starting point is 00:45:09 Hallelujah. It's on maximum fun. I couldn't have said it better myself. Yes, ma'am. Yes, you there. Gladys. A spirit of boredom. Oh my goodness.
Starting point is 00:45:17 We have the solution for you. It is to listen to the podcast. Ono, Ross and Gary. Here's another question. Hey there boyos. Hmm. I don't know. I think about that. You don't care for the family Gary.
Starting point is 00:45:40 I don't know about that. I don't know about that. I gotta think about it. So here's the sitch. I work at an office where. I gotta think about it. So here's the stitch. I work at an office where they buy our lunch every day in exchange for working during lunch. I absolutely love this, as lunch is expensive and I don't mind eating while I work.
Starting point is 00:45:54 I think what you can mind is- You can eat, not bed. I think what you should write is working while you eat. But God. God. We are a very small office, Max Four People, which is it on a given day max for people and when it comes time for lunch recommendations one guy every day without fail suggest Jason's deli
Starting point is 00:46:16 Say water every day. I let it slide for a few weeks as I was the newbie, but I couldn't take it anymore There's always so much Jason's deli one can eat one day I threw out a different option the next day he went at 9 a.m. That's suggestion Jason's for lunch I like the guy don't want to make a thing here in a small office, but how should I go about addressing this situation? That's from low some lunch lasts in lower Houston Is it pay you for that lunch work today? Let you off an hour early. I mean, as your rep, I've got some questions. You just worked through what this does sound like an ocean violation, but whatever. Yeah. Um, there's many Jason's delis that you could choose from.
Starting point is 00:46:54 Maybe in the, I'm just looking at this in the, in the Houston area, uh, there's three that I can see. So maybe just say, can we try a different, a different Jason's, different Jason's today. I heard the one down on Montrose is actually the one Jason works at. And so that one's going to be good. I think outside the context of this question, the side that's just popped into my brain, is this other employee having to every day suggest Jason's deli like it's just occurred to him. Hey, you know who I was, oh, I was thinking of a place earlier. What was it?
Starting point is 00:47:37 You mentioned Justin. You said it. What was it? Justin Steiner? Something. You know what would go down smooth today? I heard it on the radio. Yeah, it's 9 a.m. I know the office doesn't open until 10, but you know what would be so good today in four hours? Jason's Deli. Have you tried it? Jason's Deli would go down really smooth.
Starting point is 00:48:02 I mean... You could get into work at 8.59. I mean, you got one up, you know, always one step ahead. That's a good option. This is going to end with you two in the parking lot in your cars at two in the morning setting timers. That is a tall sandwich. It's a big sandwich.
Starting point is 00:48:19 I just gave a picture of the sandwich at Jason's Deli. I'm seeing some ruffle cut chips, just the way I like them. A pickle. Yeah, it's a sandwich. This is a deli sandwich. Which is given to my wife, a bowl of fruit. I'm loving the look of this. I don't blame for wanting Jason's.
Starting point is 00:48:33 I want some Jason's. Right now, I gotta be honest. What I'm gonna do is say. But it does say, it does clarify, not just Jason's deli, the same order every day. Well, I feel like. Well, I mean, that may be their, that may be their steeze.
Starting point is 00:48:47 I don't begrudge them that, but I do think that there's so many good meals out there. So many wonderful sandwiches, even at Jason's Deli. Yes. Now, you, just because they get the same order every day, doesn't mean you have to. That's true. Either way, through the Jason's Deli menu,
Starting point is 00:49:04 document it on TikTok, by the Bing, by the boom. You're famous. This would be a problem for me because there's typically maybe one sandwich that I could stomach at a place that is weird. There's usually like one. You're the other co-worker in this. Yeah, I'm the Jason's deli. I'm Jason's deli. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm Jason's deli. Yeah, thank you. I'll have it again. Perfect. Yeah, thank you. Okay. This is good. I like it. I like the sandwich. I'll have it again. Perfect. Yeah, thank you. Okay. This is good. I like it.
Starting point is 00:49:27 I like the sandwich. I don't want to get a different sandwich. This is a good sandwich. I have the same sandwich every day. Here's what you do. Monday, order Jason's Deli. Tell your boss order four more of that same thing for Justin. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:40 And then we'll order from different places and just keep giving him a taste of the deli sandwich. Boy, this pastrami sandwich usually smells better than it does right now. A dry age pastrami sandwich. Guys, listen, you know me. I fucking love Jason's deli, but this sandwich smells, have you guys noticed that the Thursday sandwiches smell off? Do they have bad beef on Thursdays? Maybe also the fruit flies More prevalent really bad this pickle is beige and Okay, what about this what about you go to a phone at the office and you call Jason's deli and you say hey
Starting point is 00:50:24 What's up? It's me from the office, and I just want to see you guys fucking Michael Scott There's no from the office of the orders everything I was gonna say is sandwiches shitty and you guys are shitty fuck you You're trying to get cut off you're trying to get cut off. They're like who is this? That guy fuck you. No You remember what you did? You heard what you called yesterday, I said our pickles are limp. You said we had limp pickles.
Starting point is 00:50:52 We're not gonna sell it to you anymore. Place it still like this, it deserves it. You said you have limp pickles and then you said fuck you like 15 times. And you said it under your breath like your word people in the office were gonna hear you say it. And then you start saying limp biscuit and giggling to yourself. What's wrong with you? Are you okay?
Starting point is 00:51:11 Hey listen, hey is this Jason's telly? Yeah, I'm gonna call back in like 10 minutes and I'm gonna order sandwiches, but I don't mean it. No, no, no. And I'm not gonna sound like me at all. I'm gonna be doing a funny, well a normal voice that's different from my own. But this is a funny bit And you tell me we're out of sandwiches that will never have more sandwiches again. What? Yeah. It's a prank you're pulling on me. I'll forget in the next 10 minutes.
Starting point is 00:51:33 Jason quit. Jason quit. Jason's doing other stuff now. So we don't do his sandwiches anymore. I am troubled by the fact that you make yourself infinitely assassinated. A bowl with this kind of pattern. This is what oceans 12 would be looking for, right? We put, he gets the same sandwich every day. So we put dookie pills in his sandwich. So he had the dookie all day. Every, every time he goes to a ranchito, he gets less chips.
Starting point is 00:51:56 So we just need to, we need to look for the bowl that only has a third of the chips for, for less hungry boys. We have to put more poison on fewer chips to get the dosage right. Guys, what I'm saying is I order a couple dips and then the meals.
