Happy birthday, Billy Football.
Billy.
Our young boy is becoming a man.
You didn't think we knew.
We knew, Billy.
You didn't think we knew.
It's birthday month here at part of my taker.
You didn't think we knew, my friend.
Billy knows my birthday.
Billy, I gotcha something?
What?
Yeah.
There you go.
Look at this.
Billy, I know how much you gained, so I got you $100 worth of meat.
What?
We're gonna let the meat sink, wait no, hang on.
Alright.
It's a now. It's a hundred dollars worth of meat. There we go. There you go, Billy. We have a big announcement for Billy coming up in a minute
We're going to talk about the national championship. We had to say happy birthday. Don't open your present to the Mike dude. Come on
Come on. Oh, look at that can tuna and chicken
It's the tuna of the land beef sticks. Oh my god. You are truly a Labrador retriever
He's so happy. This is this is the exact same thing when I open up my bar
When I open my my bark box for Stella, she has the same exact reaction. All right, happy birthday, Billy
We got the Billy announced for coming up in a minute. Let's talk national champions. Can you put the bag down?
So you put the bag down the Alabama
Crimson tide have won another national championship Nick Saban is the greatest coach of all time
unassailable seven
National titles six with Alabama one with LSU. Can we say in any sport Nick Saban is the best coach to ever coach anything?
It's getting there man, and he's not slowing down like the craziest part is he's gonna be 70 next year
And he just won another national title
So that he's got the best recruiting class in the history of recruiting classes already
It's crazy. He has the number one recruiting class in the history of recruiting classes, let alone, Alabama
He has now won six titles at Alabama in 14 years
If Nick Saban walked into your living room at any point in the last 14 years
He could say to you and your family you will win a national title if you come to Alabama and it true
And it is true. Mm-hmm. You can look at it. Oh nine eleven twelve fifteen seventeen twenty
Even if you only stayed for three years, you were guaranteed to win a national title. Mm-hmm. That's fucking insane
I think the biggest problem for coach Saban is when is he gonna get bored because he could keep this going until he dies
And if he never gets bored
Then I think he would get mad at himself if he started to get bored. Yeah, and be like Nick
You got to get back to work. All right. I think that he's gonna he's gonna keep doing it
The biggest it's like the Elijah Moore effect that we talked about the butter the new butterfly effect the Elijah Moore effect
if
West Virginia had not won that fiesta bowl against Oklahoma when they beat him by like 20 points back in 2008
Nick Saban wanted to go to West Virginia to be their head coach
I think I would love to see Nick Saban at some point go finish his career at West Virginia
Just like maybe once he turns 75 get the get the end of the run for Saban have him bring a couple titles to the mountaineers
He's not gonna slow down and so the crate the craziest stats are that Nick Saban has so he's now like we said
He if you've walked into a living room in the last 14 years
He could actually guarantee that you would win a national title if you went to Alabama and it became true
He he has now won six national titles in Alabama
Five different offensive coordinators three different defensive coordinators. That's crazy
He basically has to just turn over his staff every single year
He had to turn over his strength and conditioning coach. He had forever this year. They got somehow better
Davante Smith was insane and then the
2017 recruiting class is going to be football porn for like ever because they so depending on how this draft goes
There will be ten guys that will be drafted in the top 50 picks right now
They had so to a went in the first round
Jedrick Wills
Henry rugs Jerry Judy and Xavier McKinney went in the second round that was last year this year
It'll be Mack Jones Devonte Smith Naji Harris Alex Leatherwood and Dylan Moses
Those will be like first second rounders ten guys in one recruiting class are going to be first or second rounders
They had three highs been finalists. That's fucking insane like think about how
Insane of a recruiting class that is to have ten guys that are drafted in the top 50 of the NFL draft
From one recruiting class and on top of all this you'll love this pft
So all those guys, you know, it's gonna end up being somewhere around seven eight nine first rounders
They also in that recruiting class got Thomas Fletcher long snapper
four year starter
Not one bad snap. I love that. So even
Him
Pellechecks gonna draft that guy turn him into a slot receiver. He's the next gunner
That's Nick Saban though down to the details all these guys all these insane prospects
He's like yep
And we also have a long snapper who didn't who played four straight years and didn't miss a single snap
It's incredible. It's the run that he's going on is nuts
But it is it's it's starting to make college football a little bit boring if you don't appreciate greatness us as a podcast
I think one thing you can always say about us as we we respect great. See I I still
I still don't think I mean, I guess it would change it
My view would change if I were a fan of Ohio State or Clemson
Well, even even Ohio State like Ohio State
No, it's kind of the point where they are the Alabama the Midwest
Yes, where it's like they're always they're gonna be dominant and they've got the program set up to a point where
They're not gonna have any really down years down here for them. It's like maybe they lose the big 10
They lost to Purdue or Iowa with the one of those weird
That's like as worse that's as bad as it's gonna get there, but Alabama is like so far above
Don't know what's going on behind the scenes there. Frankly. I don't care
Well, I if you can reach a point where you're able to get away with cheating for as long as Nick Saban has been dominant in the SEC
Like good for you. Yeah, that's that's also that's actually more impressive than winning all those things
If you can just continually duck all the NCAA investigate whatever it is and Saban might I was about to say
He might not be bending the rules or cheating at all, but I'm not gonna say that but it's it's just all impressive
What he's done down there and it's crazy credit to LSU for being the combo breaker there. Yeah
Yeah, and it's crazy because he's done it with defense. He's done it with offense. He basically changed the entire like that
I've referenced it but the kick six game when they were running RPOs against me couldn't stop it
And I think there was that moment where he even said like is this how we want football to be and everyone's like yeah
It is member Brett Bielma tried to change the rules and Nick Saban co-signed
But Nick Saban also was like if these rules don't change, which they won't we'll just beat them with offense
So he's completely changed how he's molded Alabama. It's it's insane. There's nothing really else
you can say besides he's the best ever and
Yeah, I don't know. I don't know what else like the the
Bear Bryant so I was looking up last night
I was reading more about Bear Bryant just because I don't I mean he was a coach before we were born
You died before we were born
But he might be the ultimate football guy because I didn't realize this so Bear Bryant also has six national titles
Nick Saban broke his record last night
he said in his last game he played the Liberty Bowl versus Illinois they won and
The reporter asked him. He was retiring. He said what are you gonna do and he said I'll probably just croak in a week
He died four weeks later. Yep. That's the ultimate died once you left
He literally died four weeks later. Uh-huh after coaching his last game. He outlived his own diagnosis by three weeks
Yeah, I remember reading about that in a Bruce Arians book that he wrote because Bruce Arians used to be
Yeah, the assistance for Bear Bryant. He said like coach said he was probably he would always say like I'm probably gonna die
Once I stopped coaching and there's I think there's an element of football guys where it's like, yeah, that's how I want to go
Yeah, it's like leave it all out on the field
But it's so my back to the point of like has Alabama kind of ruined college football
I really don't think unless you are an SEC West fan
I would get it because like that's got to be frustrating but college football for
Everyone except maybe six teams. It's not really ever about national titles and once you realize that you enjoy it for what it is
It's about the stadiums. It's about the tailgating. It's about traditions. It's about rivalries like that's what it's about
It's about winning mayo bowls. Mm-hmm. So it's okay
Like if I get it if you're a Clemson fan or your LSU or USC and you're like fuck
How are we gonna beat Bama? But for everyone else 90% of college football? I I have there's no
I don't have any less fun watching Alabama win the title every year for my college football enjoy
I didn't like the second half. I really enjoyed the first half
Yeah, when Devante was going off and then that was video game. That was the most dominant and got rock ball
Since Blake Bortles in 2018. Yes, like this was elite shit. Like it was unfair to 15
I mean three T remember
I think I think Greg Kittle did that a couple years ago pretty much
And then they just didn't throw the ball to him at all in the second half
But that wasn't due to an injury. That was just due to being fair. It's like he's too good
So we'll just have him block this right or even Kittle was probably like I'm sick of catching balls
I mean let me hit somebody but it was insane the shit
They were doing the first half and then the second half it would it you run out of ways to start talking about the game
So like Kirk Herbst Street and Chris Fowler just kind of resorted to the fact like it's just great to see excellence
And at that point I was like, you know what the guys, right? It is it's great to see excellence
Yeah, and they had their center come in for the last snap, which was awesome who tours ACL in the SCC championship game number 69
Jalen waddle was out there a lot of hand-wringing on Twitter
Jalen waddle. Why are you out there? Like well, maybe he wants to be all he definitely wanted to be out there
But like it was painful watching him run and then the the clip that will will live on in this
National title is poor tough Borland the linebacker for Ohio State who I likened it to a
Person trying to drive their car with a boot on it. That's how he looked when he was running
Trying to guard Devonte Smith in space someone actually said on Twitter, which is perfectly put
He actually tried to change his running style halfway through to see if something else would work and it worked even less
Well, what he did it was it was like watching it was like watching that clip in Forrest Gump when Forrest is playing at the University of
Alabama and trying to run now in the movie
They obviously made him look really fast
But it was the same exact running style and tough was thinking to himself. Well, I'm not able to catch up to this guy
So maybe if I just stomp the ground harder with my feet I'll get faster and he tried it was I thought it was gonna be a
DK Metcalfe 2.0 where he was able to chase him down
But it was you should never have a guy named tough guarding wide receiver and it was just a baffling
I guess you don't really know what to do because Devonte he actually looked like he was floating because he's that he's that good and that fast and
Like then we don't even have to talk about Najee Harris who's incredible as well
They have so many weapons. Do you think so the debate now is which is crazy to say
Last year's LSU team was dubbed the greatest college football team of all time and now
People are saying well, maybe it's this year's Alabama team
I'm just enjoying the fact that we had back-to-back years where you can actually make that claim
Yeah, because I think the last year's LSU team was incredible and then Alabama probably gets the slight Trump
I do think I'm gonna 2017 UCF. I would I would pick last year's LSU team
But I understand the argument that Alabama played an SEC only schedule. Yeah went undefeated. Yeah
I mean, they were both really great teams and and the Alabama
It was a remember Alabama LSU when they played with the nine-to-six game. Yeah a while back
Like both teams completely change who they are a hundred the only way nine to six and then 21 to not the only way
That this can change because you can sit there and you can yell at clouds and you can fight against the wind
But it's not going back to the way that it was
It's never good. The only way that it goes back is if they say
The defense is allowed to use 12 guys on third downs, right? That's it, which might happen one day
Who knows if this shit keeps up, but we're gonna point. We're gonna get a lot of points. I took the over last night
It was great. It was
In what world can you sit there and bet over 74 and a half points and then at halftime be like this is awesome
Yeah, I'm good. This is awesome and
it will be the the worst news for anyone who is
Against Alabama is so Nick Saban is like I said gonna be 70 who knows let's say he coaches for seven more years
There is a world
Where Davos Sweeney goes home and and takes over for Nick Saban afterwards. That's not the craziest thought out there
He played at Alabama. He's from Alabama like I would say it's probably a low chance right now
But who the fuck knows and could you imagine if that they go Saban to Sweeney?
You know what I would do if I were Nick Saban
I would say I will make you my head coach and waiting
But you have to come here and be be my offensive coordinator for five years
Yes, and then after that I'm retiring the program's yours. Yeah, that'd be I think
Sweeney would think about it now because he's the king in clubs and I actually don't think he'll do it
But it is it's one of those weird things where right now you sit like if I had to go gun to head
I'd say he's not gonna go to Alabama in ten years
But you never know what ten years looks like and you know if he just gets pulled back there
It's like hey, I want to just go dominated Alabama
We got to see something last night after the game that I never thought I would see Nick Saban cried
Mm-hmm Nick Saban was crying
I don't know if he was upset because he was hungry need another oatmeal cream pie
If he just was mad because he wishes that he was practicing instead of playing in a game
I don't know why he was he he was really emotional after the game and I didn't think that it could happen
I didn't think that he had tears. Yeah, I knew we always said like after Nick Saban wins the national championship
He he jacks off one time and that's his that's his moment of pleasure
He's got a little mayonnaise packet filled with KY jelly in his pocket pops that sucker open
He keeps in there all year long as a reminder of his great goal
But then after the game when his eyes start to lactate it was like he didn't he didn't even know what to do with himself
He was like, I'm I'm very emotional. I'm overcome. Yeah. Yeah, it was so Alabama
Dominate it does feel good that
Like they're the clear winner and it was a weird year and there was all this so you know without playing out of conference
Could we get a real yes? This was a real winner. So there's some finality. I think Georgia could have beaten him
Yeah, maybe Texas and I'm Georgia and I'm shot
I would like to see Notre Dame actually all things considered held them
I think they're lowest total all year. They should actually they should definitely let
Notre Dame play against Ohio State and just have Ohio State wax the shit out of it
Alright, let's get big cat wait. What we're all saying like the college season's over
How many people out there have forgotten? We get FCS football in like a month. Yes
We get an entire season of spring football. We got Dion Sanders. We got
Trey Lance is not playing. No, so Jamie you has a shot this year at winning the Natty
We got it. We got a second football season. It's true. It's true. It's coming soon in February
I'm excited for it. Dion is gonna we got to go down to a game. That would be awesome
All right, let's get to our big news. You want to get to our big news? Let me do this ad real quick

This guy who's a can suck it. That's what I call him. No, dude. There's a very good chance. He dies in the ring
The Ovan do you want to kill him in the ring? That was a great. I would commit manslaughter. I wouldn't commit murder

There's rumors on the street that you are going to make yourself a weapon
I'm gonna make myself a lethal weapon. Okay, so that's confirmed without the intent to kill
That is how are you gonna travel rumor that's confirmed
So yeah, how are you gonna travel? Hmm?
Hasn't thought about travel as a weapon. Yeah, hmm. Can cross the line travel wait
But wait, no, you're a weapon. No, Billy
Wait till you get down there to weapon if you're like, yeah, if you're like Megatron Megatron turned into a gun
So you know if you just turn yourself into a transformer you can
Unweaponize yourself and then once you get to the location. I'm so high you're gone again. I'm fucked the feds
I'm a lethal weapon everywhere. Yeah
Like I'm so excited or I have a question Billy like yeah
Once it got announced and it's official or you a little bit like oh shit
This is actually happening or I was cuz I was like oh my honor. This is really gonna happen. So basically, you know
When we first discussed it when the tweet first surfaced and I was like doing my laundry
It was a it was a Saturday there. Yeah, it was just no, but think about it's a Saturday
I'm just like trying to get all my stuff done on my day off. You know that
Saturday is the day when Billy does all of his work
I have a whole other like school
How many Call of Duty hours do you log a week?
Well, it's the only thing I can do in my free time right anyway cuz I can't leave right anyway
So I'm just like doing all my chores. We didn't kidnap you right
You can leave I know I know I know but like but like it's Saturday's a good day to get a lot of stuff
All right, you're down anyway, so
No, so then I'm like suddenly my phone starts blowing up and of course like my mind goes like to a worst-case scenario like oh
My god, like something really bad is Billy got cancelled. Yeah, like something terrible or like, you know
What would be terrible in that case? I don't know like
The vegan rumors got picked up by the news. Yeah, like yo someone saw me buying vegan stuff anyway
No, but then it's like oh like hundred K. I was taking Seiko and I'm like let's fucking go
Yes, then I'm like so basically the first thing I did was just you know
Shadowbox for three straight minutes to see if I had the conditioning on your day off right. It was my day off
Really, we're gonna have to get you training with your chickens chase your kids around trying to catch him. I've been doing yeah
Yeah, it worked for Rocky. Yeah, so no, I've been I'm excited you are a weapon dude
You're in the prime of your opinion me. This is gonna be belly football
And it was a he's a big fucking fraud. Yeah, and not only is he a fraud
But he's like trying to stir the pot a little bit trying to tweet at people trying to be clever
Yeah, that's not even Jose that's tweeting by the way
That's his little cuck want to be steps on Evan do your POT's comments. No no my honors already on the line
No, they're they're my comments and I will own them
He's got a little little thirsty little cuckboy Evan that likes to tweet at people and DM people being like yo
Jose actually really thinks that he can come on your podcast if you pay him $20,000
Billy you're gonna take down there. He's got a little reek. You're gonna. Yeah, a little reek
You're gonna send them back to where's he live now? Does Jose even have a permanent lost are you worried at all?
That it might be Ozzy that shows up. Yeah, but I'll beat him both
Okay, I see Ozzy was the one who did less steroids and that's why he's not
No, I think I think Ozzy did more more steroids. I don't really care. It's all dead weight now
I look at a picture. I'm I'm hyped
I'm gonna do it yourself because you are positive energy
Weaponized Billy football everyone gas them up. We're gonna do it once I you know if I beat up Jose
Canceco and he loses fight. I don't see how he can even show his face in public again
So literally wiping him off the face of the earth, right? We're never gonna hear from again
I'm so excited and then it's I'm so and if you if you're thinking yourself. Hey, like I don't really like Billy football
Like he's annoying whatever like you might see me get knocked out too. Well, no
You you're fighting for my honor. So for me my dignity

He didn't tell anyone why I wasn't playing Steve Nash was like I have no idea why he's not playing. I haven't heard from him
So that's a tough look, you know just in general
Yeah, he's getting very well acquainted with Kyrie Irving very quickly and then now he's being investigated because there's pictures and videos
Servicing of him partying while he's away from the team for his father's birthday and sister's birthday
Yeah, so I'm actually I'm team Kyrie that matter
Ever since I mean ever since a little different than like just a random stripper party, right?
Well, James Harden was supporting his his girlfriend who's a boss now
Yeah, and Dwayne Haskins had a strip party at his house. That's true. So he didn't go out for it
But Kyrie I I like Kyrie now ever since I saw the video of him cleansing the arena with sage walking around like
How can you not root for that? How can you not possibly be on the side of an NBA player that why?
I forget what there was a reason it was
Because it's a Native American ritual, but Kyrie is part Native American, right?
So that was problematic for you for what for just whatever. I don't know. Is he is he part? Yeah, he is
Like Kyrie Warren Warren. Yeah. Yeah, no, they're they're related
Yes, they're first cousin very closely, but yeah, I like Kyrie Irving. I like it when he does weird shit like this
What's weird about just not showing up. Yeah, it's the same thing as doing has so I'm I would never
I would never like it on my team, but I
Kyrie in the mix that's the important part. I as
Someone who doesn't root for the Nets. It's a cool interesting story and it's like hey
Let Kyrie just do whatever he wants like he's made a ton of money. He can come and go as he wants if you're a Nets fan
This probably sucks and it's probably very frustrating
Mm-hmm, and the the NBA is imposing a new rule
So I guess they're having like a bunch of outbreaks
You're not allowed to do
Handshakes before the game Hockey would never you have to do a fist bump and then like return to your side of the court
And then after you come out of the game
You have to put a mask on unless you get like a one-minute cooldown period in a cold seat
Or the cool throne as it should be known nice where you get to sit by yourself in a chair
That's 12 feet away from your teammates like LeBron James in 2019, but wait
They're still playing. They're still playing on the court. Yeah, and still they're trying to put in there
They're kind of like they just need to kind of suck it up and accept that there's gonna be like
They're trying to put in protocols that just are not gonna work
Like they're trying to say that you're not allowed to go anywhere except for your house after games
It's like how are you gonna enforce bubble it again, right?
That's I mean that's it seems like that's the only logical solution, but they're not gonna get there
They're not gonna go to a bubble. I don't know, but they're gonna have to yeah, I don't know
It's gonna be interesting to see over the next couple weeks free throws can't tap hands. Oh, that's when you go over
Hey, keep your head up. What is your teammates?
What is Duke gonna do when whenever the ref blows a whistle for literally anything are they gonna be able to huddle up his boys?
No, no
Sad my other hot seat chase Claypool
They had a bad loss to the Browns. He said on Instagram live
He said it's a bad loss of the Browns. I know it's a bad loss, but the Browns to get clapped against the Chiefs
So that has wait. He said it again because he said it last week. I'll do you oh, dude
Also
Shit
Right, right chase people after the game after they lost so that's a bad loss, but the Browns are gonna get clapped
So who cares? Oh my god, do they?
What and then Sammy Watkins said that they're not gonna have a problem with the Browns
I like that Sammy Watkins is getting on there on the shit talk, too
I mean the Steelers you just lost right just shut up, right?
Crazy my cool throne is Stefan Thomas. Oh, that was mine
So he this is the guy he has a shit ton of Bitcoin a digital wall that holds
7,000 Bitcoin
But he forgot the password of it. Mm-hmm. And so he was he have like three more
He has done two more guesses two more guests. He has ten you have ten guesses on your passwords
He's used eight of them and he has twenty two hundred and twenty million dollars in Bitcoin
Just sitting there and he was like I just sit up at night trying to think about my passwords
And I just I don't have it
So you would think that would be put him on the hot seat
But I put him on the cool throne because this is basically the greatest game show ever invented
Uh-huh you get you get how you figure it out
So where does it go if he doesn't get it right? It just goes to the internet self-destructs. Yeah, Al Gore gets it
Yeah, it's you know what you should do remember the night that I forgot my password
I just got to get up and take a walk. I what I forgot my password my computer took up got up took a walk came back
Boom had it, but you didn't have steaks. I mean
Everyone's thought I was losing my mind and that I had COVID so there were some steaks if I were him
I would I would try every drug, but either way you better like take acid or mushrooms
That portion of your mind. Yes, you because whatever you do you try to sober it didn't work that way kill your ego
Yeah, there you go. You go to ego death and then go back in time and watch yourself enter the password
Yep, I just hope that one of these networks can figure out a way to turn this into a game show because it's an electric concept
Yeah, yeah, it also sounds like a great like rom-com. Yeah, it doesn't it either
It sounds like a game show like idea or like a script girl that he meets ends up like somehow knowing the password
Yeah, now would he be allowed to show treasure. Could he could he hedge out of this?
Is there anyone that could like buy his last two guesses from him for a hundred thousand dollars you would never
Like how would you get like you you just guess he's got a ballpark? Yeah, you'd either have to guess or
Maybe like someday in the future you could like that's that's internet real estate those bitcoins
I have no idea how Bitcoin works
But if you if you deposited Bitcoin into a wallet at some point you should in theory be able to get your
$220 million back I know how Bitcoin works every time I buy Bitcoin it goes down. That's happened twice now
So I did buy some last week. I always buy at the peak. I'm heavily very smart investing heavily legend leverage and doge coin
Well, Bitcoin the craziest thing about Bitcoin is you just hold it
By and hold I listen to a podcast right, but then I understand any of it like the whole point
To spend money and do cool shit
Bitcoin have a bit coins in the next ten years. It's gonna be the only currency that exists
There's gonna be at least a few people who die and they're like
They're gonna be on their death bed, and they're gonna be worth a hundred million dollars
They didn't spend any of it, but they're like, but I was right
Is it possible to just get money for Bitcoin now? Like it's really hard to liquid if I've got like six bitcoins
It's hard to look can I just can I get money for it? You can but it's hard
Small amount I want to turn my if I had a million dollars with a Bitcoin
And I wanted to go to the store and buy a cherry Coke zero. No, I couldn't do that. No that kicks ass
It's actually pretty cool
You transferred some of it to like a cash app account and then you can liquefy it easier there
Buda Ben is actually accepting Bitcoin for a sweatshirt
I like that Bitcoin's kind of like if we create grit coin and then told everyone else
Every all of our listeners to make a wallet and then you know, it only has value to us
Right, but then we made all our merch the only way you could buy is with Bitcoin
Okay, and then it would raise in value because of all of us right own
So my much we think my great coins are just photoshopped of coins with Danny Woodhead and Mike All-Star on them
But they're only available if I tweet them at somebody that's how they're authenticated
So I there's a centralized authentication process the blockchain is different. You'd need a little more
Crypto, yeah
Crypto, okay, the blockchain just fascinates you can put blockchain in front of anything and it goes up about you remember that like two years ago
There was an iced tea company that decided to call themselves like blockchain tea and their stock went up 5,000 percent
That's business. Realistically. We should do blockchain voting. That would make a lot of sense
What do you got my hot seat is Tampa Bay
My hot seat is a Tampa Bay Buccaneers because Tom Brady tweeted out a photoshop yesterday
after somebody said to him online that every future Tom Brady game should be played on the history channel and
Tom Brady's photoshop that he put out was him and Drew Brees both looking very old
But both looking very old and very very different ways Tom Brady looks like he's Kenny Rogers
Bodyguard or like Kenny Rogers on P90X while he's still alive
And then Drew Brees looks like a guidance counselor and he's like very bald
He's got a fucked up. He's Tom Brady in this photoshop gave Drew Brees neck cancer
He's got like skin cancer on his neck. He just looks old out of shape and
It's gonna be bulletin board material for the Saints
I'm calling it right now Drew Brees quote tweeted and said this is good exclamation point
Which is the most passive-aggressive thing ever well, it's accurate. Yeah for Drew Brees
What why is Tampa Bay on the hot seat because it's bulletin board material for the New Orleans Saints got it
I think that like I don't Tom Brady definitely went out of his way to make himself look good and make Drew Brees
Look really really really really bad in this. I don't like it. I don't like it for Tom Brady
I think Tom Brady's gotten too online in the last couple years. Okay. Um, yeah, it's gonna be I'm excited for that game
I'm very excited. Mm-hmm. My cool throne was gonna be the Bitcoin guy, too
So instead I'll just do my cool throne is
Nate Sudfeld because the
Philadelphia Eagles sided with Nate Sudfeld over Doug Peterson. Yeah, so my hot my cool throne was gonna be Doug Peterson because he's actually
Free of Philadelphia, which seemed like he hated coaching there. Yeah at this point
Well, he's he said he got sick of being told what to do all the time
Which is a pretty big part of being an employee and
The hot seat is like Carson Wentz is now because I assume that they will keep Carson Wentz
I it feels like I mean that was that that's pretty much the main point of it was like like get right
Got fired for he risked it all for Nate Sudfeld essentially and they're like we need to keep Carson Wentz as our starting quarterback
Let's give him another shot. Although Carson Wentz
He was starting to become like it's my new favorite game to play mentally in the NFL
It's like just close your eyes and imagine this quarterback with Kyle Shanahan. Mm-hmm. It's like, oh man. Okay, Carson Wentz
I am Newton could be good Justin Fields
Talk about Pratt Kelly with Kyle Shanahan talk about pressure that like your coach gets fired and now you're probably gonna start again also the
I mean the statue
Deserves to be up because it was the first Super Bowl in Philadelphia history
But the fact that we're three years removed mm-hmm and Doug Peterson and Nick foals are no longer there. That's wild
Yeah, I mean listen, they took down Jopah statue. They might take these guys down too for different reasons different reasons
Yep, uh, Billy you got house equal to run. Yes hot seat Jack Easter by
All these Easter B
How do you pronounce the last name Easter by just say whatever anyway? Well pretend that's right Andre Johnson and
The Andre Hopkins are all you know bagging on the Houston Texans
For saying that the Sean Watson should stand his ground and get traded
Everyone's just piling on saying that Houston Texans are a terrible organization
So you match the Sean Watson with Kyle Shanahan. Yeah, I did the Sean Watson did just tweet like when Trace speaks
Listen about or no, that was that was the Andre Hopkins. Yeah about Andre Johnson. Yeah, basically everyone everyone
Texans organization. I don't know
Did the Sean Watson have it in him like he has to sit he has to sit if he wants to actually get traded
He has there has to be a real threat that he would not play for this to work
I honestly think that if he if he sat Texans fans would be like we understand
I don't think he has it in him though
I really don't and that's I just think he's wants to play football and it's
It'll be interesting to see, you know, you should do like a you know a repair of knee surgery like anyone did before the surgery
What I really want is for the Dolphins to trade three and two for the Texans because it'd be the biggest cock trade of all time
Yeah, they're on get your pick back. Yeah, we've been holding it. Actually, it was like ransom. Yes under draft pick
Yes, would you what if it was like we'll trade you this pick back?
and
But we have to hire Bill O'Brien. Oh
Okay, Nick Saban might do that. Yeah, he's the latest name is flew right there
But I think Deshaun Watson his whole thing is like he wasn't part of the process
For hiring a general manager or head coach. Yeah when they told him that he would be it was very funny watching the press conference that they gave when they were explaining
Like how the process unfolded because they just referred to Deshaun Watson by his number
They just kept calling him four. No four was a very intimate part of this process when we were bringing in Nick Casero
They gave everybody a name and then they were like they just always referred to their star quarterback
That's as number four. That's why it kind of feels like
It's not totally the same but Aaron Rodgers remember how mad
Allegedly, he was mad that Matt LaFour was hired without his say and eventually he's like, yeah
Well, I'm gonna keep playing. I feel like Sean Watson is gonna keep playing. Yeah, I don't know
He seems mad to Sean if you want to come to a functional franchise feels Washington football team
We know how to run an organization, buddy. Cool throne. We'll have you
That's okay. Jay. Did you have any hot seats?
Hot seat canons
Because the PLL just came out with a new team the cans lacrosse clubs
So the water dogs no longer the new kids on the block canons canons LC. Yeah tits
No, I like the canons. They were the most popular MML MLL team. They just did a merger
Boston we merged. Yeah merged with another league
I think that this is actually probably like a huge moment in the lacrosse history. This is like when the
No, but it like we have the cannon
Merging yeah, yeah, so now we're just gonna have to refer to all the championships pre-merger is not really counting so exactly the water dogs
Not win a long thing. Yeah, it's just cool
Yeah, it is and cool throw in the masters allowing limited fans in April hell. Yeah, okay back to normalcy as usually like limited fans
Still, right? Yeah. Yes. Yeah, are they still are they doing pimento cheese? That's the only thing I care about
These alias are gonna be back
Hell yeah. All right. Let's get to Stone Cold Steve Austin before we do that
What do you got a PFT?
One of our favorite advertisers is back Roman swipes. You guys know Roman swipes
Most guys have tried different ways to last longer in bed, but thinking about baseball doesn't always work
Well, I know when I think about Bud Selig, it's just a volcano
It's just slime time down there. It looks like the game is being played on Nickelodeon
The folks at Roman an online men's health company are changing the game with Roman swipes the secret to longer lasting sex
Roman swipes are a clinically proven way to last longer in bed. They're effective. They're easy to use fast acting
They don't require prescription
Roman kinship swipes to you and discreet unmarked packaging and each swipes packet is small enough to hide in your wallet for whenever you need it
They're super easy to use. You just take the swipes out of the packet. Swipe it on let it dry and you're good to go
That's it. Go to get Roman comm slash take you can get your first month of swipes for just five dollars when you choose a monthly plan
That's get Roman comm slash take now here is Stone Cold Steve Austin
Okay, we now welcome on a very very special guest it's actually I'm gonna say it you're a good friend
Can we say you that you're a good friend? It's Stone Cold Steve Austin. We're friends, right? Absolutely. Hell. Yes. Okay. Hell
Yeah, I love that because I did
Try to give you the shirt off my back. I wish you were still in the studio right now, but we have to do it over zoom
So Stone Cold's here. He's got his second season of his talk show coming out January 11th
Straight up Steve Austin. Let's talk about that real quick. So I was looking at the guest list
You got Steve. Oh, and you got Brett Favre is part of a great guest list now for people who do it and watch
It's the first season. It's essentially a
Cooler more badass version of Jerry Seinfeld's comedians and cars getting coffee
You're hanging out with these people all day. Tell us real quick like Brett Favre
Is he gonna come back? Did you get any sense that you can play football still? Oh, I get a sense
You can still throw the football. He threw me one, but I don't know if he's coming back
You'd have to ask him that but yeah, it was great to go out there in Mississippi and hang with him
Would you guys do out there? You did you go hunting? I know he likes to spend a lot of time
Out in the woods. We did something that could be construed as hunting related because I guess he hunts just like a
Myself I do so we all know things are common actually him growing up in the South and being from a small town. So
It was really cool because I was wondering how that guy would be
I've watched his whole career and then to go down there and hang out, you know where he comes from and if you got many
He's a laid-back guy and what you see on TV is Brett Favre not the football player. Just just the guy
He's very humble dude. Yeah, I'm trying to think what that means when you say we did something that could be construed as hunting
That could mean a whole a whole lot of shit there, Steve
Yeah, it could be but you in the vein of and
You know using something, okay, did you try to I guess that's a great tea try to kill a squirrel with a football?
You can did you did you start a moose?
You can
Last I checked there wasn't no moose down there in Mississippi
Is that is that like a something that people ask you even when you're hosting a talk show and you're interviewing them
Has anybody ever been like?
Sir, will you please stun me? No, that has never happened
Like I've told that story a long time ago. I stunned a guy down there and we was Germany somewhere
They gave someone a stunner on a concrete floor. God dang it hurt my ass some severe
Best place to give a stunner the only place to give stunners a damn ring. Yeah, or pool pool stunners are always fun
Yeah, but you you're not gonna get the full impact the water is gonna slow you down sure
You're not gonna hit the same man
But you're not gonna deliver the full impact of this region catching right and underneath that gel
What was the last time you gave like a true stunner?
What was the last time and in and do you think you're maybe a little out of practice because it sounds like?
Like do you lose that is that something you lose or you just it's like riding a bike you can stun
You know you can roll out of bed and start stunning people
Dude, I can roll out of bed and start stunning people
That's that's one of the things that you don't forget you can go out there
You can lose your timing and have a little bit of ring rust or you know your punches might be off at the stunner
I mean, I hell I did that so many times
It's just like you said like you know once you learn how to ride a bicycle you don't forget
Do you have like a mental list that you keep when you see people like either on the news or just
Like on television that you keep and you you're like it's on site with that guy. I want to stun that person
Because I mean hell I mean, you know that that was stone-cold wrestling related
You know I and I'll sit there and look at people that I could give a stutter to you because you know if
It's basically I guess you could shoot with it. I've never shot with it, but you know, it's a work to move. Yeah
So you had Steve oh on there have been some people on TV that I'd like to punch in the mouth
Yeah, so yeah, you throw the stunner out and you know if I if someone's making me mad
I just rather punch him in the jaw. Yes. Yes
So when you had Steve oh on did you guys compare injuries because I would say you too might be the most injured people on earth combined
We did run through an injury list and then that guy's been through the ring or just like I have hella
Him probably even more so than I had a broken bunch of teeth and stuff like that
So, you know, it's funny watching that guy, you know from back in the jackass day days and there's they're making another movie
But back in the day, you know that was that show was a thing
And it was kind of right along the timeline. Yes, we were really hot. Yes
All these years later sit there and talk to that guy after watching him do all of the carnage
He's a highly intelligent human being and very well spoken and you never thought it watching him back then
But what a cool guy is and what a smart guy and a smart self-marketing. Yeah, I agree. We like
Being you know in our mid 30s
I would say we're the last generation that has our feet on the ground and a sense of normalcy because we weren't raised by the internet
We were raised by jackass and the attitude era. So like come on. We don't know Facebook. We're just stunning
We're just normal normal throw any ourselves off buildings and stuff. Yeah pushing my friend in a shopping cart and into like a cactus
That's how we were raised. Yeah
Around just eye jinx
What have you what have you learned doing this talk show because this is something that's been
Like a different career path for you trying something new and by all accounts that I've seen it's been a real success
Like people are like damn stone cold is actually really good at not fighting people but interviewing them also
I was there a transition process or was there a moment when you're like, okay?
This is easier than I thought it'd be no
It's not easier than I thought it would be because it was all the work in progress
But I guess, you know, like I was talking with Bogartita day and you know working in the business of pro wrestling
You know, you can learn how to work in a ring. You learn how to cut promos
You learn how to deal with people and then get into the podcast business, you know, I did that for
You know damn your six years. So you're interviewing people and you're having these conversations with them
So now of sudden you get someone out there a guest and you put a couple activities in front of them
So you're doing stuff that you can bond over kind of helps facilitate the the conversation
But when you first start doing it, it's kind of like trying to you know, walk and chew bubblegum and juggle at the same time
So there's a lot of different things going on on the show. So it's a work in progress
But after getting the season one in us and we did really good in the ratings and now season two
I really know what the show is all about. It's about my guest and a little bit of me having fun and sharing their stories
It's it's got me easier with repetition
But if we get season three and we don't wait so long to film it because of this
COVID thing it'd be really great to get it'd be really great to be able to get back to work
Yes, yes, absolutely. So if for people who are listening to us right now the first time we had Stone Cold on he was in studio
It was like about an hour interview. That's when I fanboyed out and asked all my fanboy questions. So now we're just friends
I don't know if I asked you though
What was the maddest that like Vince has ever been with you behind the scenes?
What was the the like most contentious moment between Steve Austin and Vince McMahon behind the scenes and what what caused that?
You know, I don't think there ever was that time now
I wasn't there in the building when I no showed in Atlanta
Yeah, so it wasn't face-to-face. I'm sure he was mad as a hornet
But I was on an airplane drinking Bloody Mary's headed back to San Antonio. So I can't I can bring it up
But I can't speak to it. I'll never forget
Early on Stone Cold characters started getting hot
So automatically the two biggest things back in the day was Stone Cold and the Undertaker or should I say the Undertaker and Stone Cold?
So they were just gonna put us together in a match because we were the two biggest things going at the time and so
You know taker was a baby face
I was that kind of turn baby face and I figured hey if they're gonna book this match
I think it was in the garden I went out there and cut this scathe and heel promo just to try to elicit and get some heat and
I went back to the dressing room after the interview and Vince calls me aside
It was almost like a learning lesson or putting us you know putting me under the learning tree who goes God dang it Steve
He goes, what were you doing?
You know because I'm figuring you got to have it and this is back in you know mid late 90s
I'm thinking you got to have a good guy and you got to have a bad guy and if he's kind of a good guy
I'm gonna be the bad guy. So that was a learning lesson and not even a stern talking to but that would have been one of those moments
Yeah, yeah, I mean that's that's a fascinating speed just because
Vince McMahon, you know through the years
I think his eye for the story and the talent
Is what has made it all work and and like knowing it's the famous line
Like I know what you want more than you know what you want and that's that's really true, right?
Like that and I would assume that you got to that point too where you knew what the fans wanted before they knew what they wanted
Yeah, and and there's sometimes you know when we would disagree on finishes whether it was in the stage overseas
of what what Vince thought the fans might want as far as the finish went and
I disagreed and we we had a conversation and maybe something got changed
But I I agreed, you know 99% with most of the direction that that Vince always went
But there were times when we disagreed but but he's the smartest guy I've ever worked with
And I always tell everybody I've learned more working with missing man than I have anywhere in my life
You know including, you know five damn near five years of college. He's a smart smart guy. Yeah. Yeah
I think last time you were on we talked about a lot of the beer stuff
Like the time that you went swimming in the ring, which was I for my money
That's the best moment wrestling history when you're swimming in like an inch and a half of beer
That was wonderful when you sprayed Vince McMahon down with the beer hose from the beer truck another all-time moment
But I know if I'm looking back in my own mind about the best tasting beers
I've ever had I'm not talking about like different types of beer
But you know that beer that hits different when you think about like a certain moment in your life
Is there a beer that sticks out to you as the best tasting beer that you've ever slammed now the best tasting beer
I've ever slammed was probably down there in Tampa a couple years back at the raw
Whatever was one thousand episodes or a raw reunion or whatever it was and I drove
I drank my own beer broken skull IPA on television
In florida that was the best tasting but as far as kind of that moment that you're talking about when
God dang
This is almost a celebratory beer because I've been through much what been through so much was
right after
Well two two occasions once after working with the rock and Philly and uh, Russell mania 15
Because I was going through a divorce. I'd forgotten my vest had to walk through the ring in a t-shirt that sucked ass
So those beers after beating him was like
Yeah, I'm right. Yeah, and then another one was in the very live match against the undertaker
They actually wanted me to run that backhoe and I refused to because I think I thought I would have
Done damage to him because that thing was that was the one thing I could have learned to drive on live tv in short fashion
And I've been going through some kind of stomach virus for about three almost four weeks. I'd lost about
15 17 pounds going into that match. I'm notice I'm noticeably slimmer than I was
and my going through that match I was sick as a dog still
and
Making it through the match
Tearing up some cartilage off my rib cage during the match
And then guzzling those beers that was like
Yeah, I got through it
But drinking those beers was the most painful thing that I'd ever done because my my gut wasn't ready for beer
Those two moments
The first thing you have yeah, it's like you're you're sick for two weeks
Like first thing you have back is a beer while you're burying undertaker alive and that's why you're a legend
Yeah, you got to put your body through you got to see if you're ready for a performance yet
Best way to do that is just slamming two beers at once. Mm-hmm. Um, what's this buzz about you? Maybe uh coming back in the ring for
Uh, maybe another match. I see it. I see the buzz. You want to talk about it?
I don't see a buzz. I don't feel the buzz. Oh, I feel the buzz
No, well, I don't know because hell. I just got finished talking about it a while back
Rbd or somebody said I was looking for a comeback match and yep
I am not I could see talk like I do say I ain't looking for a rematch
I'm not looking for another match. That was a rumor whether he started it or someone else
but I can tell you right here in camera that
You know, I'll never wrestle another match in my life. What?
They always say never say never. Hey, I'll say it. I'm done. That was a long time. $10 million. Yes
I got done. I got I got done a long time ago and I got the wrestling bug out of my system
And that was a long process and I've talked about that
extensively on this project I've been working on but
I love the business. I love watching the business. I love watching the current talent or watching legends go back and having one more run at it
But not me. So a hundred million dollars one match
No, it ain't worth it. So wait, so that's interesting what you just said that it took you a while to get it out of your system
How long was it from the last time that you were wrestling like consistently?
How many years did it take for you to fully be like, you know what? I don't really miss it
I know you've done appearances and you've been involved and you've stayed in the limelight somewhat
But like how long was it?
Before you were like, you know what? I don't need to be back
Physically in the ring going through a 20 minute match
You know, it took me a couple years to get over that and it was a hard pill to swallow because I was a guy that had to pull my own plug
Based on, you know, the the injury that I had at uh summer slam of 97
You know, I had the neck fusion got back in the ring made a couple more years
But things just started adding up and it was kind of like dude
You need to get out of dodge and I although I made the decision the hardest decision I've ever made
Uh in my life and it took me a long while
A couple of years to come to grips with that decision and and deal with it and move on right
I was I was looking up some pictures of old school stone cold. What what should we call you? Mr. Cold
Steve Mr. Austin. We just friends you guys call me Steve. Yeah, I love it. So I was I was looking up
But if you want to come on cold just out of default or habit, that's fine, too
Okay, I okay. Mr. Mr. Steve. I was looking up these pictures of old school
Stone cold and I found one back when you had hair. This is an awesome picture. Look at that big cat
Yeah, so looks great. So the blonde hair that was like combed over to the side as you holding the uh, united states, uh
Heavyweight belt right here. Um, I can't see it, but that would have to be wcw. Yeah. Yeah, it was your wcw days
At what point did you decide like?
Okay, it's time. It's time to shave the head and did you feel a difference?
In yourself like in the character stone cold when you went from having hair to having no hair at all
Well, that little comb over job. I was trying to kind of reinvent
Stunning Steve Austin. They didn't think I was marketable. So
I tried to do that hairstyle
And then uh ended up going to japan tearing my tricep off my arm
But when I got fired right after this, you know during the rehabilitation of that injury
That's when I decided to let it grow out again
And I was growing it out. It was about halfway mullet halfway scruffy
I started that ecw run and so it's kind of getting along again
That's when I got the call from ventz and this is about the third time we talked
And he presented me with the ringmaster idea
And anytime you go up to new york
Wwf back in the day, they want you to kind of change things around
So, you know, it looks like you know, you've been repackaged. Shit the worst repackage of job in the history of the business
So pope fiction had just come out or a while back and bruce willis had that buzz haircut
So that's where that look come from. That was inspired by bruce willis from folk fiction
And so, you know, uh, that that look was not a good look me with the buzz haircut. No goatee
To say it was not money. I owed money. Yes, okay
And so me and uh gold dust dust and roads were traveling together back in the day
And we were working pittsburgh melano arena and I looked at myself in the mirror. I said, dude, it's
You know, it looked like crap
And I just got a razor out and I started shaving my head and I said, dude, what are you doing?
I said, man, eff it. I said, it looks like trash anyway. I'm just taking it off
So I showed a billet with the ball haircut and everybody's like kind of like, you know
Because you couldn't really see it unless the camera came in
And it was a different look and then that's when I started messing with that goatee
So really the question once I when I buzzed that hair off and then I started growing that goatee in
That's when I started feeling like somebody. Yeah, that's when I started feeling like
Stone cold and the ringmaster. I never had any
Identity or any kind of feel for that and as a character to try to make decisions
Not knowing who and what that thing was supposed to be and there I am looking like
Hollywood blondes boots, you know, emerald green trunks. I switch them to black
You know, they might have brought me in as a ringmaster, but they didn't have that grand of plans for me
And that's when I decided after six months. I I got to take you know matters in the mode hand
And we've we talked about this last time
But the the bald look always made it when you bled you bled and people that that always showed out
Um, so all right, so you're not so this is my last question. You're done wrestling
So because you're done wrestling we can do a hypothetical
If you were to wrestle one more match and you could pick any wrestler
Dead or alive any year from their career to have that one match against and also pick your year
What year stone cold steve austin would you pick match it up for us?
That's a good question, right?
Well, it's a tough question because there's so many great people that I have so much respect for
uh, you know
Undertaker came over to house mark came out of house and did some broken skull sessions
And we always talked about his match with bruiser brody
He got roughed up a little bit
And when brody used to come down to the sport of toy him down there
In uh, dallas texas. I was in college right before I got into business
I'd go down there and see him that beat us not out of people
And I always just loved the way him and stan hansson used to walk out to the ring in japan and swing those chains
They didn't care
So bruiser brody would be really high on my left list
And I it would obviously be in prime stone cold brawling years
Yeah, post power driver because that's the only way a stone cold could have matched
Up with the power force size and strength and wild man
tactics of a bruiser brody
bruiser brody's face like the mount the what he put into wrestling
The amount of like cutting he did on his forehead and just whew
Dude if bruiser brody walked to the doors of uh the
PC down there in orlando, wherever the hell it's at and there's guys that are bigger than him down there now
But there was something about brody the way he was built the there's athleticism and that look
man
The guy had money written all over him if you could invent another brody and bring him back into 2021 it'd be amazing
I love it. I love that answer. Um, all right. So you got other stuff you got to do
You have other shows you're going to go on
But everyone check out stone cold straight up steve austin january 11th usa
Uh, great lineup. I was I was watching the promo this morning. Great lineup of guests
Also, uh, we are friends, uh, I don't even know if I'm allowed to say this

Thanks for reading my question a couple months ago about whether functional athleticism is more important than being jacked
The same boyfriend who claims to have functional athleticism took your advice and administered his own combine
He's most impressed with his punt pass kick competition results of 132 yards
Is 132 yards a replaceable number for punt a respectable number
For punt pass kick and should he be bragging about it? No, it's 40. That's what 40 yards per
Yeah, that's
That's not if you 132. No, I because that's probably I would imagine not that far like he probably kicked a 40 yard field goal
34 50 yard 40 yard pass
44 is not that good. Oh, I I think that's decent. No, I think you could beat it. Oh million percent. Okay 35 yard kick
Yeah, exactly and then 35 yard punt and then 70 yard pass
Yeah, you that's yeah, you can easily beat that anybody I do love this guy because
There's something about like
Losing your functional athleticism overnight and you just don't even realize it because you're not using it every day
And then like as you know, so you basically think you're this great athlete
Maybe played a little ball in in college
Then you stop using it and one day you wake up and you got a fight hose I could say go and you're like shit
I don't have it anymore. Yeah, that's that can happen. No, no, no, but that's why you start training when the first inkling of it happens
So it's not day one today. You remember back in elementary school when we'd have presidential fitness tests
They should do those but just for adults every every age, but it gets like easier
You don't do the same. You don't do the flexed arm hang
You don't do the pull-ups. You don't do the visa as you get older
It's just like getting off the couch. Can you install a car seat in under five minutes? No, dude, that's actually the hardest
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. You have to get presidential in under five minutes
Can you walk up two flights of stairs and then have sex?
No, no, also. No, you have to be I know you're saying can you walk up two flights of stairs and say a sentence? No, no
Dear BMT fellows, I went to dinner with my boyfriend's family and they talked about how much they hate tattoos
Little did they know I had just gotten one the night before I'm going to the beach with them in a few weeks
And my new tattoo is easily visible in a bathing suit
Should I break the news to them or wait until vacation to surprise them?
Oh, depends on what the tattoo is makeup if it's angel wings
Then I think everybody everyone appreciates like a giant set of angel wings on the back of a girl
I think you actually should just tell them the
Actual truth because that's a funny story
Be like member the other night when you were saying how much you hate tattoos. Well, I actually got one 24 hours beforehand
Ha ha
And then hope that works
Maybe do maybe throw in the spongebob laugh. Just as like a icebreaker
Hello to my favorite boys. Sorry for your lost dad cat and pft. Maybe your teams will bounce back next year. Probably not
Should I be self-conscious about my boyfriend jerking off mere hours after I gave him a blow job?
I gave him a blow job in the morning on a Saturday and when I left
His house and met up with him a few hours later. He mentioned he jerked off before he took a shower
Oh, wow, that's a that's a compliment. So he's just he's memory. Hold the blow job
And he's like, I can't wait to rub one out while thinking about this
Prager. Yeah, like I've got like just being like I've come twice today. No, I mean
I remember my first time my first time I was at one point
I was thinking I can't wait to crank off to this later. This is perfect for the spank bank
Guys think like that
What's up chunk cat and big dig billy my boyfriend and I have been dating for a week and we have not had sex yet
Only kissed he jerks off in front of me. It makes me clean it up with a paper towel
I asked him. Why don't you come on my back and he says because it's nasty. Do you think he's gonna have sex?
We need to clean up guys on chicks. It's got to be less sex and more like actual functional like what do guys think
We got a we got to help them out. Well, no, it's about it's about chicks chicks
It's not chicks on guys. It's guys on chicks guys on chicks, but also how we can help everyone out
All right, here's here's one then. Hey guys and billy
Recently I moved in with my boyfriend and one day I went on his laptop to check for a recipe and saw that one of my
Co-workers instagrams was pulled up. There we go. I thought nothing of it at the time
But on separate occasions I was on the computer again and saw that not only my co-worker had an only fans
But then my boyfriend was subscribed. I haven't brought it up at all. What should I do supporting women in small business?
You gotta bring it up. You got a prince of the boyfriend. I can't believe Ashley has a only fans
How gross is that? I think you see what he says. I think you should do it in front of both of them
Just be like, oh, actually you have an only fans because I know that uh, billy subscribe
Subscribes to it right in front of them. What that would actually be very uh, and then film it and send it to us
I've read so many stories about girls with only fans recently that I feel like
65 percent of women between the age of like 20 and 40 have an only fans. Is that accurate?
It is news flashed. There's a horny
You found a way to pay wall the horny you found a you found a market weakness that you're exploiting
Billy has one
What only fans for my feet that was different
Billy can potentially win more money this month than he's probably ever had it in his life at one time
I would say that's between school streams and oh the rough and rowdy. Yeah
Billy might be rich
By the end of by the end of february. I could be very very well. Imagine what's gonna happen to the parlays
Imagine how many frogs he's gonna have in his barn. Oh my god. I mean, I wouldn't want to be a frog
In the new york's tri-state area. No, I'm getting goliath frog. Oh my god a huge aquarium. It's gonna be sick
Billy is the drill tweet like someone help me with my finances
Rent six thousand dollars on on yeah
50,000 dollars on new frogs. Yeah. All right last one. That was it. Oh, I got one. Yeah, go on
Hi guys

abstain from jerking off
Or
To jerk off seven times a day like tyson fury said what does he do? Oh, you're not as cool as tyson. Yeah, so I'm gonna
I'm gonna also ban your ban from warzone and pornography

To possibly date hosea's daughter. Yeah, if I beat up hosea, I'm gonna introduce frank to his daughter
Yeah, and you guys know frank. Yes, you know what frank's uh series is raw dogging with frank. Yeah
You know what? I'm gonna introduce frank to his

And then my employee continuing to pay him money. Yeah thin dong on a five monthly basis
You're gonna cash hosea out and then give him a stipend. It's I can't I can't wait to see how billy spins his winnings
