Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, son of a boy, dad listeners, you can find every episode on Apple podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad free on Amazon music. Okay, okay. All right. Let's not put any of that in. Alrighty welcome back to the son of a boy dad podcast. Today it is Monday, January 13th.
Starting point is 00:00:24 It's 1130. Son of a Boy Dad podcast. Today it is Monday, January 13th. It's 11.30. We are here live from HQ3. Hello. Hello. Hello. If there's a lot of ads this week, it's because this show has become the most successful podcast on the Barstool Network. Yeah, that's it.
Starting point is 00:00:40 Look guys, this is the trade off, all right? If you don't want us behind a paywall and you want us remaining the guys that we are, you're going to have to listen to some ads. It's honestly, it's because of all the infighting that has been going on at Barstool since the whatever pink wedding, all this stuff, everybody's going at each other. And we have just used that as a way to catapult ourselves directly to the top. We've cut through it on the strength of our camaraderie, our levelheadedness, and our just general avoidance of conflict in this group. Anything to add? What? No.
Starting point is 00:01:20 Anything to add? No, I'm not. We have a lot of ads. Is that what we're getting at? I mean, no. But we're the most successful podcast at Barstool, I think, is what we're getting at. And the ads are the byproducts. And we might as well just kick it off right now with the first nod, which is to the industry of fly fishing. SAS is wearing a new sweater.
Starting point is 00:01:43 And this one's brought to you by classic fly fishing, as opposed to the more progressive abstract fly fishing he often engages in. That is classic. This was established in what's that? 1845? 1845, so right before the Civil War. Slaves used to wear this sweatshirt.
Starting point is 00:02:03 Yes. Because it was legal. Yeah, it's quality apparel. It held sweatshirt. Yes. Because it was legal. Yeah, it's quality apparel and held up pretty well. Yep. For damn near 200 years. Do you ever see the pictures of old Levi's that are from like 1899? No. Yes, I have.
Starting point is 00:02:16 Do you know what I'm talking about? Yeah, they look like- Are they just stiff as hell? They look like pants that were worn by a guy who cleaned out a locomotive steam engine. Yeah, yeah. They probably honestly were. They're like actual gold miner pants. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:34 But I guess they held up relatively well. I didn't know that... I didn't know until... Well, I knew... I've known for a while, but for a while I didn't know that those Nantucket Red pants. I didn't know that, because the color that they sell them in now is like a pastel pinkish color.
Starting point is 00:02:53 Oh, you think the Nantucket Red has changed colors? Well, I didn't know that the original Nantucket Red is red and then it wears off into the pinkish color. More of a salmon. Yes. Sure. Interesting. I did not know that until I was... I had some reds. I learned that probably actually at a very appropriate age to learn that, More of a salmon. Yes. Sure. Yes. Interesting. I did not know that until I was...
Starting point is 00:03:06 I had some reds. I learned that probably actually at a very appropriate age to learn that, now that I think about it. Not too young, not too old. I was probably in seventh grade when I learned that. I had some reds. You know, I grew up in Freeport, Maine. Maine, I think Maine, I would call it almost like a preppy...
Starting point is 00:03:21 We were like phony preppies. Preppy stolen valor. Yeah. preppy, we were like phony preppies, preppy stolen valor. Yeah. I know that the throwing fits guys have blue collar stolen valor, which I like a lot. Main was preppy stolen valor, because I lived in Freeport where we had all these
Starting point is 00:03:35 outlet stores, that's what it was known for, anchored by obviously the flagship store of LL Bean. But I used to go to the Brooks Brothers outlet and I would always have my eye on some fucking preppy shit from there. And I remember I bought a pair of Nantucket Reds pants from Brooks Brothers. And I bet you they were like $26.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Yeah. That's the type of- That's preppy stolen value. That's the type of deal you would get at the Brooks Brothers outlet, which was right next to the Orvis outlet in Freeport, where we would buy our dog beds. Is there a- Orvis outlet. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:16 Now you're talking to us in language. Intriguing. But is there a price limit on what, is there a price threshold for preppiness? I think you have to, there's a basement, yeah. For? You gotta be above a certain, because then for the first time, after my freshman year of college,
Starting point is 00:04:30 I went to Nantucket for the first time. And I went into a store there, I think it was a Vineyard Vines store, maybe. And I saw a pair of Nantucket Reds shorts that I really liked. And they were $100. And the real Nantucket Reds, like there's a store, I forget what it's called, but there's like an actual-
Starting point is 00:04:48 Reds. Reds, it could be reds. And I think they're like over 200 bucks. Really? For a good pair of reds, traditional reds. The ones that fade to salmon, yeah. The ones that you're gonna get the- I knew my Brooks Brothers ones were not real
Starting point is 00:05:04 because they remained red. I feel like Nantucket reds sounds like a derogatory term that settlers would have used for the indigenous Native American people. Yeah, 100%. Ah. There's some Nantucket reds over the ridge. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:17 Mm-hmm. I'm going to get about 20 Nantucket reds. They are perfect, though, if you get the ones that wear off. Because if you get them and they wear off, because like you could, if you get them and they're red, great for Christmas. Yeah, they turn into that sort of that rust, rusty red. And then eventually around, say they wear off to a nice salmon, perfect for Easter.
Starting point is 00:05:35 And the 4th of July. And the 4th of July. Which is really when you wanna be wearing them, yeah. But I think I would want pure red for the 4th of July. I don't think I would want salmon pink. Oh, you're gonna get another pair by then? I would probably get another pair, yeah. That is two pairs of reds in a very short order.
Starting point is 00:05:46 That's two pairs of reds a year. Same calendar year. Yeah. My dad tried to steal Preppy Valor for about a five year period of his life, maybe just three years, but he started popping his collar. Really?
Starting point is 00:05:59 Yeah. Bad bastard. How crazy is that? Dude. I like it, I like it. How crazy is that? I. I like it. I like it. I went to a middle school dance where I was wearing two polo shirts. Both collars were prop. That was a thing.
Starting point is 00:06:14 I wore them both. That was like finding you were a child and Kanye West was influential. Who was influencing my dad in his 60s to do that? Insane. Look, everybody goes through phases, man. We all have to find ourselves. There was a period of time in the, you know, the 2010s that the preppy, the preppy movement was a big thing.
Starting point is 00:06:33 I was wearing a tuck at Reds all the time. But you were trying to find yourself. Yeah. My dad is an established man. He's found. There was a period of time where I tried to be a visor man. I was rocking visors and it just never, it didn't, it doesn't work with my kind of hair because my hair is so straight. So it would be like, I'd have the visor and then my
Starting point is 00:06:53 hair would just be like hanging over the side of the visor. You look like an old Asian lady playing blackjack. Yeah. Like a fucking forgotten home. It was not a good look for me at all. Yeah. You look like those over, you know those, the bridges that they put over highways
Starting point is 00:07:09 so that deer can cross over them where they let the vegetation grow up? No, I genuinely have no idea what that is. You see this by the way when you drive down to, I think Philly or Pennsylvania. Yes, you look like a fucking overpass dude. I look like a bridge. You look like the overpass that they let, they let,
Starting point is 00:07:26 they let they grow so that the deer don't cross on the actual highway. I still have no clue what you're talking about. I know what you're talking about. I'm sure I would know if I saw it. This dude looks like a fucking bridge. You look like a overgrown bridge. Yeah. Check yourself. Highway overpass. I can't believe you overpassed.
Starting point is 00:07:45 For dear. On paper, the Visor is one of the most, it has a lot of upside as far as the swaggy ways that you could turn it sideways, upside down, backwards. Soldier boy. Soldier boy. Two of them. Soldier boy wore a Visor upside down, right? I'm pretty sure. I just remember the dude in Cheaper by the Dozen wore a visor upside down.
Starting point is 00:08:09 And I remember being like, is that like cool? Because he was supposed to be like the cool character. Yeah. He was like a bully. And you tested it out after that. No, I never went upside down. I think I knew. I was like, that looks really dumb.
Starting point is 00:08:24 And upside down and backwards. Yeah, that's fire. And the guy wore it in a B movie. I'm pretty sure if you think about it right there Yeah, but but when it's been longer than this it can get even more lush Yeah, it's it usually has some like willow ebbs interesting. Yeah. No that is similar to what it looked like If you think about it though if you if you can see it, but it's a really cool hat. It's got really nice, really nice, really nice, really nice color. It's got really nice, really nice, really nice color. It's got really nice, really nice, really nice, really nice color. It's got really nice, really nice, really nice, really nice color. It's got really nice, really nice, really nice, really nice color. It's got really nice, really nice, really nice, really nice color. It's got really nice, really nice, really nice, really nice
Starting point is 00:08:56 color. It's got really nice, really nice, really nice, really nice color. It's got really nice, really nice, really nice, really nice color. It's got really nice, really nice, really nice, really nice color. It's got really nice, really nice, really nice, really nice color. It's got really nice, really nice, really nice, really nice color. It's got really nice, really nice, really nice, really nice Yeah, it's like keeping the sun like it does it's not doing anything for you Yeah, not a single there's not a single productive reason to wear a visor upside down backwards Let's just swag yourself. Yeah, I'm thinking like baggy cargo shorts a wife beater and You're playing maybe touch football or something like that. You have spiky hair.
Starting point is 00:09:25 Yeah, you frosted tips. Yeah. Sugar Ray. That's what the dude in Cheaper By the Dozen had, I think. I think that's a sweet look if you have like, if you're pretty jacked up top. I feel like that look in those movies in that era was typically like Jamie Kennedy,
Starting point is 00:09:41 Malibu's Most Wanted, that kind of thing. That guy in those movies was always a guy who thought he was black. Yeah. Which is interesting because that's not how black people dress. No, not at all. And I don't think they ever have. I don't know that there were many... I guess Soulja Boy did dress a little bit like that. Let's look at, let's see, I'll see if I can find some...
Starting point is 00:10:03 Jinko shorts with a wallet chain. Yeah, that was, Soulja Boy did definitely have that look a little bit. He did do? Yeah. And Soulja Boy was very popular around that time period. And look at the first person that comes up, that's exactly the type of dude we're talking about.
Starting point is 00:10:19 Spiky hair, chin strap. Goatee as well. Or yeah, chin strap. Beautiful blue eyes. It's like the lead singer from 98 Degrees, Nick. Here's Nelly hitting it, but it's a flag football game. I think he's just trying to swag out the outfit a little bit. Nelly could do whatever because he was so athletic. I forgot that he was a minor league baseball player.
Starting point is 00:10:40 And he was incredible at football too, I think. That's why they had it. They cast him in Adam Sandler's remake of The Longest Yard. Yes, great movie. Was pretty good. Very funny. Lot of weirdos in that movie.
Starting point is 00:10:52 Joey Diaz is in that movie. Stone Cold, Steve Austin's in that movie. The one. It's a good one. I think it was Stone Cold. Stone Cold was in it and I think maybe Goldberg was in it too. Who's the big Jack Black brother that got diddled in Hollywood or something like that?
Starting point is 00:11:07 Yeah, that's the ho from America's Got Talent. No, no, the other guy. He's the- Not Jamie Foxx. Terry Crews. Terry Crews, yeah. And he's so jacked in that movie. He hits the robot under a basketball hoop at one point
Starting point is 00:11:20 and he's like, baby bat bitch, baby bat bitch. Yeah, I remember that. And he just hit the robot. It was indelible for him. Yeah, I remember that robot. Yeah, it was Indelible I gotta rewatch Adam Sandler has to earn Michael Irvin's respect by taking lots of obvious fouls and not calling them Remember when Chris Rock dies? In a fire Forgotten about that I was gonna watch that's an insane spoiler. I always forgot it though. That scene was like weirdly depressing
Starting point is 00:11:46 Yeah, it was there's like a massive explosion. Do you know that that? That movie has been remade about four or five times. I knew it would be remade once I didn't know there was I think the original movie was with Sylvester Stallone where they played the guards in soccer and Stallone was the goalie and Then it was that might not be there might have been an original the longest yard But then they also remade it in England and this was my favorite the longest meter There's thrown acid at each other the whole movie I don't know what it was called
Starting point is 00:12:20 But it had it had that great guy who had played soccer for Leeds United, and then shifted his career to becoming an actor. He was in Gone in 60 Seconds. That British guy who was always sort of an enforcer. I don't know. Is he the one who puts his sandwich down on the dead body? Maybe. Let me look it up. I'll find out. Who am I thinking of? He's like a quiet guy. He's in Snatch.
Starting point is 00:12:46 I don't know. Yes, this guy's in Snatch. I'm pretty bad with actors. No, don't say that, bro. You're great with actors. No, I'm really bad. You're a great scene partner. I don't know any names or anything. Except for like the A-lists.
Starting point is 00:13:00 Vinny Jones. Vinny Jones with his famous locker. This guy. You know that guy, right? Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. That's who we're talking about. A star, a star is born was also remade like ten times. I know. Here's an interesting fact about Vinny Jones. Vinny Jones Walker. He's a British actor, presenter, former professional footballer, and designer of the overgrown overpasses that cut back on the roadkill instances in Eastern Pennsylvania. Holy shit, bro. That guy designed your haircut That's fucking nuts. I desperately need to get my hair cut and it's infuriating
Starting point is 00:13:40 You should just take you should just keep the beanie. I was thinking about doing that this morning. May I? Sure, if you want, yeah, at this point. May I do the honors of beanie cutting you? I was going to do it this morning, and then I woke up, and I was like, I'm so tired. That is basically what the mushroom cut was, right? What? Just like a bowl cut.
Starting point is 00:14:02 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. But like, tight to the head. Yeah. That was a fire. Did you ever have that when you were growing up? The mushroom cut? No, I didn't. I had it. A large amount of like young boys have that haircut.
Starting point is 00:14:14 Now? Well, when I was growing up, all my friends had that haircut. But like when you're like, when like your parents decide what your hair is gonna look like. I thought it was a cool haircut when I was a kid. I desired the mushroom cut, but I also had no taste as a child. I thought it was a cool haircut when I was a kid. I desired the mushroom cut, but I also had no taste as a child. I didn't want it. My parents didn't want me to have it.
Starting point is 00:14:30 They came from more of like a European school of thought that, you know, that sort of a haircut was actually like, in some ways, child mutilation. It would be hilarious if France had Andrew Schultz's haircut when he was like six. Was that the reverse mushroom? The one that he's got like the Nazi haircut. Was that ever actually the Nazi haircut? Maybe, I'm not sure.
Starting point is 00:14:58 There's no pictures in Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. No there isn't. It don't really go into detail. And there should be. There should be. There should be illustrations. They need to have an illustrated version of Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. I'm sure you could find one. I'll tell you what, I read that and then I watched some grainy footage of the Nazis.
Starting point is 00:15:14 Not even close to the imagery I had come up with in my mind. Really? From reading Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. Did you read the full book? Mm-hmm. Damn. You'll get there. That book with illustrations would be like, I mean, you need to have a fucking forklift to carry it around.
Starting point is 00:15:30 I'm bringing my Ulysses S. Grant biography with me on this trip. And it accounts for half the weight of my bag. Yeah, it's a big one. How many pages? 900 pages with like a 100 page appendix. Jesus. Who's that for? Who's the fucking appendix for? Well, that's for anyone out there who wants to comb through a 900 page book and say, I bet you somewhere in here, they did not properly cite their information.
Starting point is 00:15:58 Ron Chernow. That's so insane. It should just be available online somewhere if you really want the appendix. You know, you think that those people are You know should kind of just mind their own business and yet those are the people that brought down the president of Harvard. Oh Yeah for plagiarism. It was her plagiarism scandal. Someone went back through that Dissertation she wrote it's probably like this is plagiarized good strategy for blackmail It's probably like this is plagiarized good strategy for blackmail
Starting point is 00:16:31 Like if you figured out if you went through the woman, yeah, that's I was looking for one and you beat it Mine wouldn't have been anywhere near as good because I was gonna say something like actually I think they handed her the letter To tell her she had to quit you beat it so much good. I liked male, female better than like, you know, snail male. Understood. Still damn good though. Understood. He's just like four seconds quicker. Yeah. Which in humor is a lifetime.
Starting point is 00:16:53 It's necessary. No, that's not true, brother. It's true. I just got lucky once. It is and it's necessary. No. Timing is everything. I'm saying that it's not true that I'm four seconds quicker four seconds is a lifetime when you're racing for pinks
Starting point is 00:17:09 Truth a lot of truth there. I know it's the fucking truth. I see that you're on the DCS Taking after Tommy smokes. I needed some caffeine in me. I almost went for a Red Bull and then I said that could get ugly You're stealing bits. Basically, you're stealing Tommy smokes bit of drinking diet coke Now I stopped drinking coffee and I stopped drinking Red Bull. And now I'm just drinking more DCs than ever, which is probably worse. But I need some sort of, I need some form of caffeine. And I can't, I can't take the full hundred milligrams. What about coffee?
Starting point is 00:17:37 It's, coffee's worse. Why? I just get super jittery. Coffee's worse for you than Diet Coke? Oh, no, It's definitely not coffee is definitely a better in every single way than diet coke for you. It's just pure bean juice Yeah, I'm gonna throw out something that you Is so preposterous that I'm even suggesting this to you, but is it gonna be that mushroom fucking? I was gonna say matcha mud drink matcha matcha
Starting point is 00:18:02 The green shit you should try it the tea. It's pretty clean energy. It's They say it's a lot more healthy lots of antioxidants. I'll give it a go. I'll give it a try I've been big on the chai. Yeah, you know chai means tea. Yeah, I did know so when people say chai tea They're repeating themselves chai latte chai latte is what I'm on I was talking to somebody who's involved with the military this past weekend and they were like, everybody pays attention to Russia and China as America's main, quote unquote, enemies right now. But they said kind of in third place, not, you know, blue banner enemy, but right there
Starting point is 00:18:48 in third place, India. And I had no idea that we had beef with India like that. I think it's just because India is so populated and they have so many. And I think because of their links to China and Russia, specifically China. But it's like, it would be crazy if India linked up with us over China. Yeah, we would be fucked. No, I'm saying they would look so disloyal to China, China would be looking at them like, oh yeah, yeah. I mean, China and India together make up like half the world. Yeah, maybe, yeah, probably half, more than half.
Starting point is 00:19:24 Yeah, I think it is more. So if they link up, we the world. Yeah, maybe, yeah, probably half, more than half. Yeah. Yeah, I think it is more. So if they link up, we're fucked. I also saw India has the highest percentage population of their population that have gym memberships. Really? 24% of India's population allegedly has a gym membership, which means that there's 500 million people with gym memberships. Yeah, I'm not buying that. I'm following bullshit.
Starting point is 00:19:47 Look, just, you know, yeah. I'm not buying it. It can't be true. So like, what kind of gyms are you going to go to? What constitutes a gym? Going into a river and beating your clothes? I don't know if that's technically a workout. You don't have to flash a pass for it. I was gonna say something like that, but then I was like, India's a pretty big country. They definitely have gyms.
Starting point is 00:20:14 Yeah, I guess. I don't think it's just them throwing mud around all day. What, parkouring through a slum? Jumping from one tin roof to the next? I don't think so. Oh my God. I love travel videos. They've definitely got like a Planet Fitness out there. It's a massive country.
Starting point is 00:20:33 I don't know, man. I don't think it's like when you see the videos of like the Taliban working out. I think they're a little more updated than that. Yeah. Oh, it is? It's just gyms. I think they're a little more updated than that. Yeah. Oh, it is? It's just gems. It's not like, oh, there's a rickshaw waiting. Let me step into the squat rack and lift it 12 times.
Starting point is 00:20:55 I was picturing just those barbells with just like the cinder blocks on the side. Yeah. They're not even mounted. They're just balanced. And just like a big jacked Indian dude Yeah, like a amazing mustache. Yeah, I guess there are a lot of really jacked Indian dudes Yeah, but the barbells have the round ends. Yeah in the ones I'm picturing
Starting point is 00:21:15 Just the big bulb. Yeah, no sled bushes. Just there's a stubborn cow at an intersection Someone has to lower their shoulder but finding it going at an intersection, someone has to lower their shoulder, get it going. But finding out that there are number three enemy makes me realize that I just haven't been close to xenophobic. That really surprises me because that discounts, you know, Syria, fucking... North Korea. North Korea, Northeast Africa, where there are breeding grounds of actual terrorism with anti-Western slants.
Starting point is 00:21:45 I just don't know if I'm gonna agree with that fact. Why did they say it? And what was their status? They were talking pretty deeply classified. I think you got bamboozled. You think so? I don't even think this guy was in the military. Why didn't you say guy?
Starting point is 00:22:05 Wow, you just revealed yourself as a sexist. Well, yes, I am but also Yeah, no, I'm assuming it was a man Brother it might not have been You're revealing your I think it's well now I know I know it's not now. I know it's not true Well, if a woman's hey, yeah, just gossip Well, if a woman said it, it's just gossip basically. If a woman's saying facts about the military. Let's look it up. But they were saying it was specifically linked to our
Starting point is 00:22:30 likeliness to be, to share like nuclear information. Interesting. And where were you when you were in this conversation about nuclear warfare with a high up person in the military? Birch game, dude. Yeah. Wait, wait, wait. You said what, Ron?
Starting point is 00:22:54 Our likelihood of sharing nuclear information? Yeah. So these are countries that would not want to share their nuclear information with us? Like, we're not going to give them what we know about new. Oh, okay. Well, I mean, I guess I kind of get that. Yeah. Develop it on your own. So here's a chart that says the share of Americans who said the following countries were the single greatest enemy of the US. 50% of America said China was the greatest enemy.
Starting point is 00:23:27 32% said Russia. 7% said North Korea. 2% said Iran. And less than 1% said Iraq. Yeah, but I think this is- Bro, you got God. You're judging the people. You're letting the people decide who our biggest enemy is.
Starting point is 00:23:44 This is like, this is something that you would do. Like you'd go to an Eagles game and you'd tell the person next to you, You're judging the people. You're letting the people decide who our biggest enemy is. This is something that you would do. You'd go to an Eagles game and you'd tell the person next to you, I'm actually high up in the military. And believe it or not, India is actually the number three threat. See that Indian guy right through us down? Do not talk about our nuclear program. Do not trust him. Keep this from doing anything. Whatever you do. He's a spy. I don't know if you know this, but they're number three on the list of countries I would not want to share our nuclear secrets with. Honestly, just assume any Indian person is a spy.
Starting point is 00:24:09 They've got two billion Indian James Bond's out in the world. Go to New York, see what they're doing with the bodegas. They've already established ground space in New York. They're selling us the weed. The transportation market cornered. Yep, motels. You ever stay in a motel? Let me ask you that. 50% of them. What was your stat? Wait, someone sent me an incredible piece on this. It was the Patels, right? Patel. Let's see here. Oh, good. I've got it.
Starting point is 00:24:44 Okay. Can I give us this really quick? Of course. I have nothing to do. I'm not going anywhere. Oh, wait, that wasn't it. Hold on. Fuck. OK. All right. Where is it? Fuck. No, keep talking. Well, you look for that.
Starting point is 00:25:03 I have a question and it goes back to the ancient Levi's. People buy old jeans, like vintage pants. Would you ever buy pre-owned pants? No. I think it's crazy to have pre-owned pants. Pre-owned shirt. Okay. I could see it maybe. I've never even looked in, like when I go to maybe. Something that- I've never even looked in, like when I go to like a vintage shop, I've never even looked at the pants. Right, it's crazy to look at the pants.
Starting point is 00:25:29 Shirts, okay, fine. Pre-owned pants, someone has ripped ass in. Yeah, they've shit and ripped. Okay, I got this. Are you ready for this? Yep, yep. We're gonna clear this up. So this is a friend of mine.
Starting point is 00:25:40 I'm not sure if we've ever met, but a buddy of mine, I think we have met, Anand Patel sent me this. Hello, Francis, I had a ton of notes and needed the help of chat GPT to organize all my thoughts. I have it on high authority that everything is accurate. My family has been in the business, the motel business since the early seventies.
Starting point is 00:26:00 So he wrote me something. Surprise, surprise. The rise of Indian owned motels in the US, a historical overview. He wrote this? With the help of chat GPT, but I think he has notes. Like he's deep in the game. He's like in the giver, the keeper of memories. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:19 He's that for Indian owned Patel motels in the United States. Understood. All right, let's hear it. He's the keeper. He's the grandmother Willow. Yeah. I'm going to try to say this as quickly as possible. In the 40s, many Japanese immigrants in San Francisco ran single-room hotels with shared
Starting point is 00:26:37 bathrooms. But during World War II, the US government forced these Japanese residents into internment camps, leaving the hotel operations without managers. White hotel owners, in need of someone to run their properties, found a solution in a small group of Indian immigrants who had arrived in San Fran seeking employment. Seeking employment. Yeah, nice. Nice, nice. These Indian immigrants quickly demonstrated their business acumen, taking over the operations successfully. Recognizing the potential for long
Starting point is 00:27:05 term success, they approached the hotel owners and negotiated leases for the properties. This early success led to a wave of correspondence with relatives in India, encouraging them to join this growing nature venture. Slowly throughout the 90s and 50s and 60s, everyone washing their clothes in rivers, left their clothes behind and came to America to help gentrify the hotel business. Wait, so what happened to the Japanese brothers when they got back from the camps? They went into the rivers to pick up the laundry and swapped. The 1970s marked a significant shift as immigration from India increased dramatically. We need a dry way to clean this. The sun is not as, the fog in San Francisco makes it hard to spread it across.
Starting point is 00:27:54 Indian families came in larger numbers, eager to capitalize on the thriving motel industry. The rise of roadside motels was spurred in part by Eisenhower's push for the construction of interstate highways, many of which included overgrown overpasses that would be likened to hair tumbling over the top of a visor. Hair balls. Providing travelers with convenient rest stops
Starting point is 00:28:17 across the nation. Indian families employed a unique approach to running these motels. I don't know why I'm reading this, this is too dense. They would move into the property, living behind the front desk and take on all responsibilities. Their tireless work ethic allowed them to keep expenses low and generate substantial profits. Now this sounds like it's a little bit of a puff piece. That sounds like propaganda.
Starting point is 00:28:39 Their tireless work ethic. I didn't realize chat GBT is Indian chat Gupta Patel here I got, I got a good one. White owners thought that this would be a temporary thing, but the Indian immigrants thrived and then bought more motels expanding their operations. And by the eighties, many of them owned multiple motels and more and more relatives came over. But as the eighties drew to a close,
Starting point is 00:29:06 the opportunity by more motels got scarcer. And then in the 90s, a pivotal shift occurred when the owners began approaching franchises like Days In, Super 8, Econo Lodge, Quality In to establish franchise agreements. This made them even richer. You telling me Howard Johnson is an Indian man? And then in 1889, the Asian American Hotel Owners
Starting point is 00:29:31 Association, AHOA, was formed to support and represent the interests of this rapidly growing community of Indian motel owners. They just kept growing in dominance. And then this led to like them expanding into Indian owned banks, entrepreneurship, supply companies, real estate brokers. And now we find ourselves today
Starting point is 00:29:56 that they're generationally passing down the motels and they've gotten into like Hilton Marriott, Hyatt franchises, no sign of slowing down. The biggest franchises of the top three hotel brands are all Indian families And they all came from one part of India known as Gujarat and have a lot the last name Patel Interesting that said sorry that took so long that was drier than I thought it would be but now we know now we know I didn't know they were breaking into the hotel world as well. Yeah.

Next time chat GPT we're going to ask chat GPT to sprinkle in a little just like a joke every every paragraph. I like that.
Starting point is 00:35:01 Dude, I asked chat GPT a question yesterday and they told me that they could not give me the answer to it and I think they were lying because the question was, I guess, a little bit controversial. Tell us. And they didn't want to give me the answer. What was the question? I was watching football
Starting point is 00:35:18 and I was looking at the playoff picture and what's coming up. Yeah, we got Ravens spills next week That's gonna be an instant classic instant classic night and I was just curious and I looked up I said on chat you BT and I said I said which team in the NFL currently has the most black people on their roster and They said they said whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Why are you asking? They said who's a they said we said whoa whoa whoa why are you asking they said who's asking they said we don't have any statistics or we don't have any information that could provide an answer to that and I said really like no one
Starting point is 00:35:56 the no one knows that answer can't be that hard to figure out I think chat GPT isn't up to date but like how would chat GPT not know out. I think chat gbt isn't up to date. But like how would chat gbt not know that? Well I think it's just like two years old or like six months or it used to be two years old maybe now it's six months old the information like you can't be like chat gbt what happened yesterday. But this is I'm talking about the 2020 2024 25 season. I know but I'm saying it's not the information is not up to date. I think if you said who had the most black players in 2023 they might be able to answer that.
Starting point is 00:36:26 Well, apparently this year there's more black people in the NFL than ever. Fucking DEI, bro. Which I'm fine with, but I was just curious to see if it was the Ravens or not. You just assumed it would be the Ravens. I assumed it was the Ravens because I was watching Hard Knocks and it was like Jim Harborough talking. Harborough? Harborough. Scarborough. Scarborough. Harbaugh. Harbaugh talking and he was doing the team meeting and there was
Starting point is 00:36:56 literally not a single white dude in the entire, the only person I could even think of on the team that was white is Mark Andrews. Patrick Ricard. Who's that? Their fullback. Their fullback? That big fullback that they have? I've never seen him ever. He's like 300 pounds. He's fucking massive.
Starting point is 00:37:14 Yeah, no. So I guess two. That's two whites. You know, my guess would be that Chatchie BT has a hard time with this because rosters are always fluctuating throughout the season. They pick someone up off waivers. yeah, I guess it's true. You can't really like.
Starting point is 00:37:28 Well, they haven't picked up any white boys off waivers, that's for sure. I'm just saying. I think the Ravens might be working with a little bit of an unfair advantage going into the playoffs. I think there should be some sort of quota that you have to hit with the amount of white people you have on your team. That's what the DEI should really be. Yes, like I think there should be some sort of quota that you have to hit with the amount of white people you have on your team. That's what the DEI should really be. Yes. Like I think like, like I think the Ravens need to have, they should have to sprinkle in like there's got to be at least two white dudes on the field at all times. I love the idea that there's like some guy who is, you know, half black, who like has to check the box of being white.
Starting point is 00:38:08 Yeah. And it turns into a scandal in the same way of like... Rachel Dolezal. Or I was gonna say like in Friday Night Lights when they find out that some guy lives in a certain school district but all it is is an empty mailbox. So he could play for the better team. That's so funny. Yeah, I was just curious.
Starting point is 00:38:28 Nothing. No, no, we need more representation. Well, no, I don't think we need more representation. Obviously, like, the brothers are a lot better at football than I didn't say we need better football said we just need representation. We need some diversity or maybe some equity or maybe a little inclusion. Yeah, I think it wouldn't hurt for some of us to be included. I just want to be included. There should just be one guy slow as hell out there.
Starting point is 00:38:53 I mean, I get why you have an issue with this. I don't have an issue. You're a fan of the whitest team in the NFL, the Patriots. Well, no. Trust me, I would love the Patriots have a lot less white people on their team. That would make, nothing would make me happier than that. Yeah. But that, that ship is fast. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:11 I mean, it's just, you know, Ron and I fans of teams where we don't really see color except for the color of the Jersey. Right. Interesting. And you are- Cause I was thinking the Eagles might be number two. Blackest? Yeah. We have Cooper Dejean. Yeah. He's not. Because I was thinking the Eagles might be number two. Blackest? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:25 We have Cooper DeGene. Yeah, he's not white. What are you talking about? He's like, he's like, he, I don't know. If a white person is athletic, it makes them not white. Did you see what Cooper DeGene said about his welcome to the NFL moment? Just covering Adam Thieland? Yeah. Yeah, that was hilarious.
Starting point is 00:39:42 So yeah, it was just a tough day sticking him. It was very straightforward tough day sticking him It was very straightforward with him read blanket ship our whole offensive line. Yeah, except outside of Bechtin and Mylada Still though pretty white. That's pretty white. That's decently white you got Jaylen The there has to be some white brothers up front for the Ravens Maybe like one. Mike McCarthy out as Cowboys head coach. Wow. Really? Oh, I just got that as well.
Starting point is 00:40:12 That's so weird, because I got a notification 25 minutes ago that said Mike McCarthy hasn't negotiated a new deal with Cowboys. And then immediately after. How about variable? You got to be excited about Vrabel. Yeah, I am excited about Vrabel. That's awesome. Yeah, I think it's pretty huge. That's so fucking awesome.
Starting point is 00:40:31 I love this. I love this. The fact that coaching in the NFL seems to be shifting away from old man bullshit into former player who is still in shape and yeah respect Yeah, I will say like the only thing with variable is he is like a defense He's a defensive guy like that's like his coal coaching Fossils was champion You get the good quarterback. That's fine, but you still have to have a great defense. Yeah defense us win championships, but it also
Starting point is 00:41:04 like It doesn't really seem like the good defense is really able to slow down that many teams anymore. I just tried to search what the Vikings have one of the best defenses in the NFL and the Lions put up like 30 points on them. True. Eagles have one of the best defenses they gave up 10 points. Yeah, Eagles probably have the best defense in the NFL. I just looked who I just typed in Ravens white players. The first one says Daniel Falele. Can't be a white guy.
Starting point is 00:41:32 100% is like a Samoan or there's no way. The next, they said Justin Tucker. Okay, kickers white. Oh yeah, I forgot they got Justin Tucker. A guy named Brent Urban. Urban is the white guy. Yeah, but he's probably more from like the Keith camp. Then they have some M. Amovae Lualu. French. Cannot be. They also say Davantes Walker is one of their white players. That's definitely wrong. Devontes? But that's what I'm saying. Google doesn't know the fuck they're talking about. Okay, so if you can look up
Starting point is 00:42:07 and they can give you a list of all of the white players on the team, why can't they tell me how many, which team has the most black players? Because ChatGBT's information's old. No, because ChatGBT doesn't want to. Because that somehow was like a controversial question. Well, then try it with the white one.
Starting point is 00:42:26 Try chat, GBT, what NFL team has the highest white devils concentration of white players? If this gives you an answer, I actually might say that you might be onto something. Which NFL team currently has the most white players? Holy shit, the suspense. What's the answer? TachyPT is lacking. Yeah, they gave me the same answer.
Starting point is 00:43:00 Okay, that's good. Now that I'm reading it again, actually, they're like, they said, teams with a higher number of white players in these positions may have slightly larger proportions of white athletes. Teams like the Packers, Patriots, and Vikings have often been noted for having a higher representation of white players compared to other teams. How do you think the Samoan bros got so damn big? There's definitely an answer to that. You know how just the average Samoan man can just clean and jerk 450 pounds and then also play the ukulele? Yep. I do know that. All the
Starting point is 00:43:38 average dudes can just do both of that. Both of those things. It has it's gotta be an evolutionary thing, right? Is it diet? Is it that they had to be some kind of warrior or there is a lot of physical labor involved? It's probably some something like that. Is it glandular? I would bet diet has a big part of it, you know? I mean, they eat a lot. That culture, I know for a fact that their typical meals when they get together as a family are big, big amounts of food. Yeah, what are they munching on over there?
Starting point is 00:44:15 A lot of plantains, curries, sea foods, you know, fruits of the forest. That sort of thing. A nice pig. A little pig. Yeah, pig with pineapple. Yep. A pig curry.
Starting point is 00:44:34 Yeah. A beautiful... Pork curry. What's the main spice in curry? Bailey? Sriracha. I believe it's pepper Pepper and Sriracha. I don't actually know the answer to that
Starting point is 00:44:50 We've got to get a nice ass dinner tonight. Yeah, we're gonna I think something Culturally interesting. Yeah I'm down for that. Have fun. I cannot wait to not be a part of that dinner Yeah, cuz you're gonna be a national factor. Sitting around fucking sucking each other off. How great are we? Oh! Can't believe what we've done.
Starting point is 00:45:15 Are we not the greatest? Look at this dinner, look at this dinner. Sass would never like this dinner. You don't like going out to dinner, I feel like. No, I like going out to dinner and I like going out to places that you guys go. Except that one place that we went last time was really good. The Thai place. Was it Thai?
Starting point is 00:45:33 Oh yeah, that was good. Chinese, Indian. That place was really good. No, it wasn't Indian. What was it? Chinese? It was. That was good.
Starting point is 00:45:41 Duck, duck, go. Yeah. Yeah. Those noodles were amazing. But I didn't even think, you didn't even really eat. You were waiting to eat. No, I ate. We were eating and trying to pass stuff to you and talking about how I was getting divorced.
Starting point is 00:45:53 And you just let the food get cold while you checked out the square footage of the Citizen M Hotel. I ate those noodles. I forget what they were. Those big, wide, flat ones? Yeah, so good. Delightful.
Starting point is 00:46:05 Are you guys going to go there again? God no. Last time we were in Chicago, he and I went to an incredible French restaurant. It was awesome. We ordered so many preparations of duck. They had about seven different types of duck preparations on their menu. Very nice. You would have hated it. A whole portion of the menu was just duck.
Starting point is 00:46:25 Yeah. Have you ever had a duck? I haven't now. See? I've actually never had duck. How about rabbit? Ever. No.
Starting point is 00:46:32 How about squab? No, I haven't had rabbit, I haven't had duck. Have you had pigeon? I have never had pigeon. Who's the dude on the, what is he on, is he on LSU that's always eating like squirrel and shit? Yeah. Panthers dude. Leg squirrel and shit Yeah, there's dude Legate oh he's on the Panthers. Yeah, I don't know. I thought he was a college player. He was on South Carolina last year and then he got drafted to the Panthers and he's just the most country boy
Starting point is 00:46:57 Time did you see he just killed a squirrel this week? Yeah. Yeah, he's like this game fell off the squirrel Yeah, me and Luke were watching. It's so funny after every game They ask him they're like, what are you gonna go eat for dinner? And then he'll be like we got some raccoon tonight and then they'll he'll post videos of him like outside just like with like a skin Fuck you'll have like five squirrels in his hand. There was a battle rapper named Water boy. Yeah. Yeah, there's a battle rapper named Tay Rock who battled this guy named Swamp. And I think he battled him in like South Carolina or maybe the guy's from South Carolina.
Starting point is 00:47:30 He battled him somewhere in the South. And he was like, making fun of him for how country he was. And he was like, you eat fucking raccoon. And the whole crowd, since they were also from the South and I guess country too, they just started booing him for making fun of the guy for eating raccoon. That's where we draw the line. I don't know if I could get around to eating raccoon.
Starting point is 00:47:51 I bet squirrels probably decent. There was an amazing thing I saw, just came across my Instagram feed, where it was this people who had found a squirrel that was like dying or stuck or something, and they're playing that soft music, that sad music. They're like, we found him and he was clinging to life. He was shaking.
Starting point is 00:48:14 They start nursing him back to health and it's this montage of them feeding him little nuts and drinking from a little milk bottle. Then he starts playing and they're like, we never knew what impact we'd have on our life. Then the next slide is them grilling him. What? That's crazy. And eating him is so funny. I feel like that's also like not the kind of,
Starting point is 00:48:36 if you're gonna eat a squirrel, you probably don't want one that's like dying of like, natural causes. No, but they nurse it back to health first. They took the long road. Yeah, I guess that's true. But like he was sick at one point. Like wouldn't, just go get one of those squirrels that's fucking doing back flips over trees and shit.
Starting point is 00:48:51 He was stuck. Those are hard to catch. It's much easier to catch a disabled squirrel. A disabled one. Yeah. And they make for good eating. That is grilled with disease. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:00 I bet half the chickens we eat are fucking sick as shit. Yeah. I bet they're never healthy a day in their life. Just jammed in a cage with 100 million of their closest friends and family members. And they're just tipping over because they're so fucking fat. They're so fat, they never see any day.
Starting point is 00:49:17 It's so crazy. They're in like damp, dark environments. Mushrooms are probably growing in their cages. Someone just died that was in the same cage like one minute beforehand. Yeah, they're definitely sick as shit. That's why for a while. But if you think about that existence, right? There's one great moment of their day, which is when the food comes.
Starting point is 00:49:39 Yeah. And maybe it comes a few times a day. I'm assuming it comes a lot. So I don't know if they're thinking about so much stuff. They're not that worried. And then meals are so fun and exciting. Yeah. But is it like I- Eating their brother's feet. Yeah, because they're just getting,
Starting point is 00:49:56 it's getting thrown around. It's like a fucking war. No, there's plenty. All right. They have to. They have to fatten them up. Take your mask off. Are you a bird?
Starting point is 00:50:08 Are you advocating for the chicken dry now? Now what I'm thinking is, it's actually not bad. Sass doesn't like to go out to dinner. Sass doesn't like to go out to dinner. He likes to have his food come to him. And it, you know, there's not that much difference between you and one of these chickens.
Starting point is 00:50:23 That is true. You're sick all the time. You're happiest when of these chickens. Yeah, that is true. You're sick all the time. You're happiest when you're in your cage. That is true. You have diarrhea 24-7. That is also true. Had a nasty diarrhea this weekend.
Starting point is 00:50:35 Bloomington? Yeah, I had to take a... Imodium? Imodium. Did you try the walleye? I did not. I didn't get around to the walleye. You didn't have any fish?
Starting point is 00:50:44 Dude, I didn't... We didn't eat anything. You didn't have any fish? Dude, I didn't, we didn't eat anything. You didn't go to Spoon and Stable? No, we didn't. We went to a restaurant in the skywalk. That mook was like, I think there's a restaurant up here. We got pasta, we both got a pesto chicken penne pasta. Phenomenal. Nice.
Starting point is 00:51:01 Like genuinely, like it was really fucking good. Yeah. And then I had insanely bad diarrhea after cuz I can't eat that much gluten True worth it worth it. Sometimes it's worth it. How much was the plate? 850 or like 2250. Oh, no, I think it was like 20 bucks 850 for pasta. I mean that's probably how much the raw materials cost, less than that. Penne pasta is like the cheapest substance. Yeah, I didn't know. I thought they were all the same amount of money.
Starting point is 00:51:31 Do you think that the pasta was made fresh in house? Just different shapes. Or did it come from like a box? I have no idea. I'd assume it was probably from a box. It's from a box, yeah. Yeah. I think penne is probably a pretty tricky one to make
Starting point is 00:51:43 from scratch, especially when you're working in a skywalk. Fresh pasta is pretty unbelievable. Yeah, I've had it. I've made it multiple times. Do you have a press? No, I made it with Bo a couple times. Crank?
Starting point is 00:51:58 He, no, we did, he has a crank. He has one of those crank things for gnocchi, but when we did spaghetti, we just stretched it out ourselves. You just took individual strings and stretched it? You use a roller and you roll them and then you cut them and you stretch them. Those are going to be pretty fat pieces of spaghetti. They are. That's not angel hair.
Starting point is 00:52:24 No, no, we were not doing angel hair. That's Hagrid hair. Yeah, we were doing Hagrid. Dreadlocks, we call them. Yeah, they're locks. Yeah. Wicks. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:32 But it was great. Phenomenal. I can't believe he has a gnocchi press. Yeah. Well, they used to do, remember they used to do gnocchi Thursdays. Gnocchi Tuesdays. Tuesdays. Of course. We got to bring that back. Yeah. Wenocchi Tuesdays. Tuesdays. Of course.
Starting point is 00:52:45 We got to bring that back. Yeah. We should get Italian tonight though. We shouldn't? No. We're getting it tomorrow. Are we? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:53 Let's stay away from Italian tonight. We don't want to spoil ourselves before the big Italian happens tomorrow. We got to eat something lean. When I think about Chicago, I think meat pretty quick, but I'm not really trying to eat as much steak. How about a nice piece of fish then? Oh, that would be nice. I can do that. Little walleye.
Starting point is 00:53:10 Sorry? Little walleye maybe. Yes, not too far from Minnesota. So when we were, I think when I was- Oh, is that a lake bass? Minnesota? The walleye. Oh, I have no idea. Does it come from the lake?
Starting point is 00:53:24 Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I think it's a freshwater fish, but I was saying that because Ron said walleye. Oh, I have no idea. Does it come from the lake? Yeah. Yeah, I think it's a freshwater fish But I was saying that cuz rones had walleye is really big in Minnesota the best Oh It was pretty cool when I was landing in when I was landing in Minnesota You know I was looking out the window at all of like the frozen rivers and and lakes and there was your phone on you were in Canada no didn't I never got any notifications, but I did you I did see a ton of people ice fishing Yes, like just sprinkled out on the lakes. You ever done that? No, I haven't I want to though
Starting point is 00:53:51 I got a couple offers while I was there, but never took him up. It's pretty cool Yeah, I just didn't think I had the right apparel to be going and sitting on ice. Well aren't you supposed to wear shorts? It's like kind of a harto thing right you go you wear shorts. No If you're a harto thing, right? You go, you wear shorts. No. If you're a harto, I think you wear shorts. Yeah, I don't know why you would ever wear shorts. Would you want to be in a hut? Would you want to be in a hut or would you want to be out exposed to the almonds?
Starting point is 00:54:17 I'd do either. The huts look pretty sick though. The huts look pretty sick, but at a certain point it feels like you're not even really fishing. That you're in like, you have like a TV on. You're like in like a living room with like heat blasting everywhere.
Starting point is 00:54:32 And then you just have a tiny hole with a tiny little fishing rod. They use this, they use tiny fishing rods for ice fishing. So small. Yeah, they're like this big. Why? I don't know. They look like toy rods.
Starting point is 00:54:43 Why do they do that? Well, the line doesn't drop down that far and the fish typically aren't that big. Really? Yeah. The videos that I see online of people ice fishing, they catch fish bigger than any fish I've ever seen. Those are bigger rods. No, they're not. When you're talking about those types, those are, that's a different rod. Yeah. No, it's not. It's the same type of rod. No. Yeah. Where they catch like they'll catch like they catch like 30 plus inch like pike and like lake trout like bass.
Starting point is 00:55:15 Did you see? Yeah. Did you see the YP video ever of him catching that fish while he's ice fishing? You know, it's like as he's about to leave, he catches a fucking whale. The YP would have been like this, bro. Did you guys ever chop it up? No, never. I actually, the only time I ever saw him was when he was, it was after he made the video coming at Dave, and then randomly he was in the office
Starting point is 00:55:38 the next day, and everyone said that, like I remember like Frank, he was saying that he was going around being like, looking like he was like taking it all in for the last time and then he quit the next day. Really? Yeah. I remember him being like, I don't know who any of these people are.
Starting point is 00:55:53 Yeah, I didn't, we never spoke. You guys would have gotten along great. Yeah, maybe, I don't know, I don't really know him. I thought he was a good vibes guy. Yeah. He's like a positive guy to have around. Yeah, no, I genuinely never knew him though. Did he do Idol? No, he came in at the same, right around the time that I came in because he arrived
Starting point is 00:56:13 at the office like with an animal, with animals. With a chinchilla and a dude with dreadlocks. He came with like snakes or something, right? I thought he brought in like a chinchilla he bought that after the fact I don't know I could be wrong I don't remember that was a different fucking time chinchillas make for good eating it was it was a it was a great day that's the one thing that I do miss about like about not really this office not being crowded. Also, I don't know what's going on here right now, but I got here. Dude, I got here and this dude who I had never met comes up to me and he goes,
Starting point is 00:56:52 he goes, yo, do you know if there's anyone else here? And I was like, well, like Ronan France. And he was like, no, like anybody. He's like, you're the first person I've seen. And I was like, what? And I guess the office is just completely empty. I noticed that today too. I wonder what it would be.
Starting point is 00:57:08 Well I know a lot of people are going to Chicago. No it's because of Stanko's memorial. All right well yeah I didn't know that I didn't know that. Yeah. Well don't fucking look at me like I'm like I did something crazy bad. You're making light of the fact that everyone was out honoring. I thought I assumed it was I assumed everyone went to Chicago for the what's it called for surviving.
Starting point is 00:57:31 No, that's not it. But yeah, well, now I know that is not it. Stanko. I mean, I don't know if we said on the show that was the man. Yeah, he was the best. He was the nicest dude of all time. Yeah. But one thing that I do want to clear up is that everybody keeps on being like,
Starting point is 00:57:47 when Rhone told that story about Stanko being ass naked at the- At the house in Philly. Making eggs at the house in Philly, that Stanko rolled with it so well right away. He didn't roll with it. He was ass naked fucking making eggs at the stove. Oh, I thought you said it was fake.
Starting point is 00:58:07 No, it was real. Oh, it was real? Yeah. Oh, that's hilarious. Yeah, bro. He was just ass naked. That's so funny. Wait, where was the house? Oh, it was the gambling house? The gambling house in Philly.
Starting point is 00:58:18 And I got there like, I was somewhere else that morning, so I was like the first person to get there by hours. And he was ass naked at the stove wearing an apron And he didn't even lay just looked over his shoulders I Mean weirdly, you know if a woman did that I think that's one of the sexiest things dude It was sexy when stanko did yeah, right a little side boob popping out the side of the apron. He had a great ass. Yeah, I'm sure. Incredible. He's a runner.
Starting point is 00:58:48 Yeah. Yeah. But it is sexy when a woman does it, I guess. Side boob. All right, Sas. It's time. Rank the three best kinds of boob. Classic.
Starting point is 00:59:03 Side boob, under boob, standard cleavage for me in order says rank in your mind America's biggest enemies see India is the regular cleavage of America's energy it's sitting right there in plain sight. For me, my biggest enemies? Canada, Mexico, Russia. In order. What's your problem with Mexico, bro? I want them. We're getting Greenland. We're getting Greenland, Mexico, and Canada. We're going to have Greenland like that. Yeah. There's going to be Delta flights to Greenland.
Starting point is 00:59:45 It's going to be unreal. Dude, there was this thing, there was this thread after Trump said that he wanted, he, you know, suggested that Canada become a state. Yeah, we're taking it. There was this thread of people that were like, you know, maybe tell Trump to look at what the Canadian soldiers did when the Nazis tried to take us. Like, and then it was all them talking about these unbelievable atrocities that Canadian soldiers committed.
Starting point is 01:00:11 Yeah. Being like, yeah, the Nazis came over and basically, well, let's just say that every one of them was raped. And you're like, dude, you're bragging about this? I don't know that that is- Nazi rape is rape That's still right. It is it is it is still rape wait and Nazis the Nazis tried to invade Canada. I Don't even know I found this thread happen and it basically there was 1970s weird
Starting point is 01:00:41 Weirdly recent Canadian weirdly recent. It flew under the radar. He came over the North Pole, just slaughtering reindeer on the way. I think if you want to invade Canada, you don't even have to, like you just fly commercial to Canada. Oh my God. Dude, we got to, uh, no disrespect to our Canadian. Speaking of, speaking of Delta, we got to know disrespect toward Canadian speaking of speaking of Delta. We got to
Starting point is 01:01:08 we popped over to the facilities this weekend out in Minnesota skull and You cannot be saying skull skull hole bro. So are you with the Vikings that they play the Eagles this week? No, no not at all okay, but uh Can't throw out a skull here and there? No, a skull means you're with them, means you're against us. How is the Vikings facility though, beautiful? Unbelievable. Their stadium location is awesome.
Starting point is 01:01:35 Well, it wasn't the stadium, it was the practice facility. But I guess that's like where they spend all of their time. I think that's cooler to see than the stadium. But yeah, we got to go see everything and it was so sick. What was the smell? Just like, it was like if you walked in, it was like when you open up a fresh pair of shoes. Amazing.
Starting point is 01:01:55 It was so sick. And the dude that gave us the tour, he was like, you guys can take as many photos as you want, just don't post them anywhere. And he was like Jay toured the stadium, tou photos as you want, just don't post them anywhere. And he was like, Jay, toward this as well, and they said the same thing to him, you can take as many photos as you want, don't post them anywhere. And he did post them, and the one that he posted was
Starting point is 01:02:18 of the washer and dryer, the laundry machine, and he said, and the caption was like, this is the key set and the caption was like this is the kind of stuff that just goes like a forgotten like just such a cool behind-the-scenes look at like the process of watching the jerseys and it was like out of all the things dude like we were like standing next to Justin Jefferson's locker and out of all the things to post he posted at the laundry room look at the mop that they use to clean the floor. No one ever thinks about where the sweat goes
Starting point is 01:02:48 after it falls off the jersey. It was really sick though. The washing machine? No, no, like just the whole thing was super cool. Well, how big were the washing machines? Normal size, like the size that you would have at your parents' house. In college, after practice and stuff, we would, we had this
Starting point is 01:03:07 a ring. We had like a ring with a buckle. Yeah. And it had our number on it. Yeah. And Harvard lacrosse. And you would put like your penny, your undershirt, your shorts, your jockstrap, your socks on that. And then you'd put it in the big bin.
Starting point is 01:03:21 And then when we came back the next day for practice, it would all be washed. You'd fish out your clean ring of stuff and have more clothes. Yeah. There was a guy on our team who started like sneaking in some of his regular clothes. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:35 To get that washed. Yeah, that's hilarious. He put like t-shirts, like a pair of, he got so bold. He tried seeing what he could get away with and he'd like put khakis on. Yeah. Khakis is amazing. Cause it would be in this huge, you know, thing, I got so bold he tried seeing what he could get away with yeah, like put tackies on yeah Cackeys is amazing because it would be in this huge, you know thing but then they like
Starting point is 01:03:55 Industrial dried it in a fucking yeah, you know kiln. Yeah, and his khakis got shrunk Yeah, I'd imagine they probably turned extreme like comically small. Yeah They're definitely just well what makes stuff small cold or warm harm warm. Yeah. Yeah. They're definitely just, well what makes stuff small? Cold or warm? Hot. Warm. Yeah. Yeah. They're definitely washing it with super warm. Well, you know what was interesting to me
Starting point is 01:04:12 is like the whole process of the washing of the jerseys and like if someone has like a tear in their jerseys, they'll like repair the jersey. It made me- Yeah, why aren't they just buying new ones? That and also like so- They hand sew the things on. When someone does like a jersey swap,
Starting point is 01:04:27 is like the equipment crew just like, fuck! And you die. And they're like, no! No, no, no, no. There goes my night. Yeah, yeah. They gotta go hand stitch up a new jersey.
Starting point is 01:04:40 Yeah. And it's always like Van Ginkle. Yeah. That's a long ass last name. Yeah. Dude, you see so many jerseys that are you know game worn jerseys as memorabilia and stuff like that. Yeah, I Completely agree with this and you only see that in hard knocks the polishing of the yeah Yeah, what else is crazy is I remember watching the Miami Dolphins hard knocks and seeing that they relay the sod for the
Starting point is 01:05:05 fucking stadium after like every game. Yeah. They have fresh grass. Yeah. Every game. Dude, did you see the new Bill Stadium and what they're gonna do with theirs? No. Are they gonna put a roof? No, they're not. And but they're they're doing this. So they're gonna have I might be wrong on this, but I watched a video when and I think it was like they have they're doing this. So they're going to have, I might be wrong on this, but I watched a video and I think it was like they have, they're going to have natural grass. They're going to have a grass stadium, not turf. And then they're going to have this thing. It's like, I guess it's supposed to be like the most, it's going to be the most advanced like stadium yet. And it's going to have
Starting point is 01:05:40 like this thing underneath that like heats the grass so that the snow doesn't stay. Yeah, similar to a platform tennis court. I bet you it's the same technology. And also it has some sort of thing so that grass can continue to grow in Buffalo in the winter. That's nuts. I think a lot of places heat their field with coils underneath.
Starting point is 01:06:02 They have miles of coil. Yeah, in the famous ice bowl, Green Bay Packers, A lot of places heat their field with like coils underneath. They made like miles of coil. Yeah. In the famous ice bowl, Green Bay Packers, Bart Starr, the coils had all broken at Lambeau. So the field was rock hard, pure ice. But he was also, he moonlighted as a coil fixer. He was in the Union 162 and so he had to get under at halftime fix the coils himself. Yeah. Forgone era though. It's not like that anymore.
Starting point is 01:06:28 The spoiled athletes. The coolest part about the facility to me was we, so like we went in the locker room, the locker room was sick. Like that was awesome. The actual field was so sick. And how big was, how many, how many practice fields did they have? Multiple. Cause so they have one indoors.
Starting point is 01:06:49 Can you give me a number? Which also, I will say this, we went on the one indoors and we got to like walk around and like stay in there for a couple of minutes and we were in the end zone. And I will say the end zone is fucking huge. And it did make me be like, touchdowns aren't as impressive as I thought they were.
Starting point is 01:07:08 I was like, dude, this is fucking massive. But did you also think that looking from your end zone to the other end zone was such a large amount of space that to run like a 99 yard kickoff return or have a 75 yard pass play is crazy. Yes, it's insane. And also like seeing like when like Jayden Daniels threw like the 80 yard fucking Hail Mary. Like I was looking at it. I was in the end zone. I was like, dude, I don't even think I could hit the 20 from here. I was like, this is like throwing 80 yards is fucking insane.
Starting point is 01:07:40 And then the other part I would think is that, you know, kicking, kicking a 50 yard field goal makes you realize like, boy, that looks pretty small. In like the winter. Yeah. Yeah. In like a windy winter night. Yeah. But they have, they have, I think they said they had, they have three practice fields. They have one, they have the indoor one. They have an outdoor one that's kind of has like a little mini like bleacher stadium around it for when they do Preseason training camp so that like fans can come watch and they have another one that's like more hidden and it's outside But they said that like he was giving us the whole breakdown. He was like, yeah, like they do They do like they'll practice outside if they're playing somewhere outside and it's gonna be cold shit like that But this week they're in Arizona. so they're they got to practice inside
Starting point is 01:08:26 It's fucking sweet cool. Yeah, but oh what I was gonna say was the coolest part to me was uh I'm a gear guy. He doesn't know I'm a gear head. Always appreciate gear. Gears of War. When they pick up like a new guy like maybe off waivers or if it's like a rookie coming in They have this like right outside the locker room, there's this like one little area where they have like all these like insane machines for like fitting your shoes, like getting figured out which cleats are the right cleats for you
Starting point is 01:08:54 and it like runs through a whole program. And then they have like a display of like nine different pairs of Nike cleats. And then they have a display of like eight different helmets and like gloves and All this shit and in it and like you just you literally just get to go sit there and just pick which one you want It's like the matrix when yes Keanu Reeves is like I need guns lots of guns. Yes. It's exactly like that Yeah, yeah, and they literally just get a full like they get to pick anything
Starting point is 01:09:19 It's like in GTA going into the house. Yeah. Just picking your full ass outfit. Yeah. I remember watching them when they did 24-7 Road to the Winter Classic. I think it was when they had the, when it was Ovejkin maybe playing the Penguins or something like that. And they showed a scene of the hockey gear room. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:40 And it was just so sick. They can go get a new pair of skates, sticks, unlimited, unlimited. One of the coolest things about the NFL is that is picking your face mask. Yeah. The design of like what you want your great to look like. AJ Brown is so iconic due to his face mask. Yeah. Lydian Tomlinson, same thing. The visors.
Starting point is 01:09:58 Those are sick face masks. The dudes who have like the bar right in the middle here, that's fucking sick. It was sick, dude. The amount of detail and everything, they have so many boxes of receiving gloves and then they have different gloves for, because everything in the NFL right now is Nike and then Oakley does all of the visors. But if you have like a, if you're sponsored from like a different company,
Starting point is 01:10:27 they have like a, they have boxes with your name on it of your own personal gloves that have no logos on them so that you can wear your sponsor but not show off like the logo. Oh wow. Okay, here's a question. Which position in the NFL would you say has the best style? And by that, I mean, you know,
Starting point is 01:10:46 most swag the way they look in their game outfit. Running back. I was gonna say, I thought receiver would be the obvious answer, but then I was gonna say corners are pretty cool looking too. Oh, I was gonna say running back just because I think receivers are a little too long. Well, I like that. I like that over Stout.
Starting point is 01:11:07 I think Stout, a nice Stout running back. Well, this is why you like Nokie and I like Spaghetti. Exactly. I think it could be quarterback, honestly. Quarterback when you have the towel, the play calling sheet. Yeah, but there's more quarterbacks that get it wrong, I would say, than receivers. I agree. Well, then you have like Brock Purdy's who would be wearing khakis on the field if they had the opportunity. No I disagree I
Starting point is 01:11:28 think Brock Purdy looks great on the field. Brady looks really good. Yeah. Brady would look really good. Brady looks good. Josh Allen looks good. Yeah. Who looks bad then? Jayden Daniels looks good. I would actually say. I would to be honest and I know. I would say exactly the same thing. Jaylen Hurts. Jaylen Hurts does not look good. He was the one who I thought looked the best. He's the one I thought of when I... Something about Jalen Hurts on the field. It's the pads around his stomach that are too much. Yeah, you look at him and you're like,
Starting point is 01:11:53 that's not a quarterback. Yeah. What? Yeah. I agree. I completely, and his stance under center. Like there's something about it. Something about him. He's just not, he's just not a Super Bowl,
Starting point is 01:12:03 he's not a Super Bowl quarterback. No. No. It's not swaggy. put this on the fucking bulletin board Jalen Clip this print this out and print so we can just have this as actual bone so we can tape it next to his locker I'm like Vic had the best by far. Yeah, especially when he came to the Eagles Oh, yeah, she wore a visor to I think when he came to the Eagles. I was watching the documentary about him last night But I think Lamar's got a good style. Also the Ravens uniforms, especially when they do like the all-black ones are fucking sick. Yeah, the Ravens uniforms when they go all-black are super sick I think the Texans uniforms when they go all-black are pretty sick. Black brothers can wear purple so much better than the white brothers
Starting point is 01:12:44 Mark Andrews looks like a damn fool out there Cincinnati Bengals of sick uniforms I would say Joe burrow looks pretty good under center. He's pretty swag Joe burrows like maybe I think I mean look I might be biased. I think Baker Mayfield's the swaggiest white boy in the NFL Baker Mayfield is a fucking tank. He's a swaggiest white boy in Cancun right now. I was devastated that he lost. Yeah. He deserved that win. No he didn't. But I will say, I will say Jayden Daniels
Starting point is 01:13:11 is really fucking good. It's cool. All right, and I hope the commanders make it far. Yeah. Cause I, I, I hate Terry McLaurin now. I mean, he's dead to me forever, but you know, Jay and Daniels deserves it. There will be more ball talk later on this week.
Starting point is 01:13:32 Did that run from Baker Mayfield not fire you up? When you see Baker Mayfield taking off for the run and you know he's not gonna slide and he's just like banging against dudes, you're like, this guy's a fucking tank. I like when Josh Allen does it when he's near the sideline and oh yeah he's not going yeah he's not going anywhere all right see you guys later on this week all right goodbye yes I'm sorry. I looked older, till you came around
Starting point is 01:14:29 I was only falling one way I was only falling one way Days were drifting Before, before was I So, so then you listen Now I come alive I was only falling my way I was only falling my way
Starting point is 01:15:15 I was only falling my way I was only falling one way Fetish to your eye Did you realize No one can take me alive I was only falling one way See you just a distant light Be it fast or ever bright
Starting point is 01:16:03 Call it just a memory Take my hand and you can see I'm home Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, FANISHED TO YOUR EARTH DID YOU REALIZE NO ONE COULD TAKE ME ALIVE
