Hello, folks, and hey, bear.
Welcome to the Nateland podcast.
I'm Nate Bregazzi.
Brian Bates here in Weber, Dusty Slay.
All right.
And a new baby.
New baby.
Yeah, I had vertigo last week, but I'm back.
I'm still spinning a bit, but I'm here.
I feel good.
I felt like I woke up on Sunday and I was like, maybe the earth is spinning.
Yeah.
That's what it took.
I could feel it. I was like, the government is our friend.
Trust the doctors.
And I was like.
That's how we feel all the time.
Yeah.
I was like, wow, science is real.
And it felt good.
Yeah, we did not say that you had vertigo.
No.
We don't ever know to put out.
I don't know what you want the government to know about.
Yeah.
I don't know about.
And we didn't know if you, you know,
did they need to know you were weak at the moment?
Well, I think I was maybe targeted with 5G.
I mean, who knows?
That's true.
You know what I mean?
That's true.
Mike James filled in with a broken toe.
Oh.
Yeah.
Wow.
You know, I have a hurt toe as well.
Oh.
Wow.
It's a chair.
So Mike may be getting vertigo soon.
Is vertigo you just feel like you can't stand?
Yeah, it's like when you look at something, it's like it moves and then adjusts and then moves and then adjusts.
And you just can't.
I got so dizzy, I threw up.
Sunday, I could not even get up for most of the day.
And do you like, can you watch TV or anything?
Or you got to just close your eyes?
No, you just want your eyes to be closed.
And we did, there's a maneuver that you could do.
And I went to the chiropractor today.
He's hooking it up.
I would be, never in a million years would think that's where you would go for vertigo.
Yeah.
Is a chiropractor.
Like that.
Well.
I mean, that's unreal. They're the guys. That's the vertigo guys? Is a chiropractor. Like that. Well. I mean, that's unreal.
They're the guys.
That's the vertigo guys?
I actually did know that because conspiracy theorists don't go to doctors.
Chiropractors, they hook you up with everything.
Yeah.
Chiropractors.
Oh, so.
Chiropractors, they're like a sage for us.
Is it like you go to just a chiropractor?
Or does the world know, if you've got vertigo, go to a chiropractor?
Well, some people will go to a doctor and get madison yeah and suffer with vertigo their whole life yeah other people go to
the chiropractor and he adjusts the head and yeah it the the deeper you get into vertigo the crazier
it sounds yeah but apparently there's crystals in the ear canal it that that can get dislodged,
and it throws off your equilibrium.
So there's a maneuver you can do that's supposed to get,
slowly work those back into place. Wow.
Jason Day had it as the golfer.
Oh, yeah.
And he had to pull out of events in a major championship,
and it was a crazy thing because it seems
it's like when you hear it you're like what you were dizzy yeah you're dizzy you lose it like
it's just and but it's he couldn't he was on the golf course you have to sit down and he just
yeah yeah it's crazy i mean that's like turf toe uh It's not like turf, but it's kind of like you hear athletes get turf toe
and they can't play, and you're like, your toe hurts?
And then you're like, it's probably the worst thing you could –
like you can't move.
Or like a quarterback will be out because their pinky finger is broken.
Yeah.
You're like, to be a man, you can't – and then you're like,
well, that's the main –
Yeah, they can't grip a football.
Yeah.
Well, didn't you injure your toe in the bathroom?
Well, I was moving a recliner.
TMZ over here.
Tell what really happened.
I was moving a recliner.
Into the bathroom.
And I drug the part over my toe and it like sliced my toenail.
It was bleeding.
And then I like was got it healed up.
Right. And I was using the bathroom and I like was got it healed up. Right.
And I was using the bathroom and I was, you know, on my phone.
And as I got up, I set the phone on the toilet paper dispenser and it started to fall in the toilet.
And I swatted it midair.
So it didn't go in the toilet, but it landed straight on the toe.
It wasn't, it's not the big toe. It's a random little toe in there. Show the video.
Right down on it, bleeding
again. It was a real
mess. Then I got vertigo.
There's nothing like a little vertigo to take your
mind off your toe. I'll tell you that.
Did you save the phone?
Oh, yeah. It's nice and dry.
It was worth it.
I just got a new phone. At least you
brought a baby into this world. Well, it was worth it. I just got a new phone. At least you brought a baby into this world.
Well, that's the thing, right?
Into this – like the baby just doesn't know.
It's dad was a mess the week it was born.
I had vertigo all day.
On Monday, I was still shaky.
Later that day, my wife goes into labor.
So I drive my wife to the hospital post-vertigo.
But he had a very Sefeldish day i would say yeah
and that you made a couple pit stops and well after you dropped her off you went out for snacks
yeah my wife was just laying there i can do for so i was like i gotta go get some stuff out of
the car and then i could see kroger in the distance so i thought well i'll go pick up
some snacks here yeah i'm gonna be here a while yeah they'll feed her not me so i went got some you know a bag of popcorn and it was funny that
it ended up being popcorn because as i i told my wife i go you mind if i munch on some popcorn
over here she goes this is just a show for you yeah you're just gonna sit in the corner and watch
i'm trying to make jokes with the nurse. I probably got popcorn in my beard.
The nurse was not happy.
Can I get a little more daikon?
Yeah.
Just shaking the cup
a little bit.
Hannah said at one time
during her labor pain,
she's in so much pain
and Dusty goes,
huh,
the Wichita Funny Bone closed.
She's like,
could you focus?
Well, that was sad news.
That is a bummer.
Wichita Looney Bin closed.
Oh, Looney Bin.
Excuse me.
Yeah.
Looney Bins are going away.
Yeah, we're only down to two now.
Oh, wow.
Every time you bring a kid into this world, a Looney Bin goes.
Yeah.
It's specifically Dusty's kids.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's awesome, man.
Congratulations, dude.
Yeah, thank you.
Did you say the name of the baby?
Yeah, we went with Samuel.
Samuel.
We like the sound of Sam Slay.
We think that seems fun.
I like Sam Slay.
And also in the Bible, Hannah, that's my wife's name, gives birth to Samuel.
And I thought that was fun.
Yeah, that is good.
I really like Samuel.
Yeah.
Is that one of the names we had?
No, we didn't talk about it at all.
The original, the four listing, it was number four.
Oh, okay.
It got the least amount of votes, but we didn't have a name until he was born.
Yeah.
Sam seemed right.
I really do like Sam Slay.
That's a good name.
Yeah, I think so.
I think it's fun.
It's going places.
I just couldn't bring myself to tell people that my, I couldn't bring myself to name my son Duke.
I wanted to, but I just, it felt like more for me than for him.
Here's the fun thing.
You can still call him Duke.
Yeah.
I can call him.
Like John Wayne.
Call him whatever you want.
It's, yeah, it's alarming.
Duke can be alarming.
Yeah.
When it's like dusty.
It's almost like it doesn't let up.
Yes.
You know?
What's your daughter's name?
Daisy.
Daisy, yeah. So Dusty, Daisy's name? Daisy. Daisy, yeah.
So Dusty, Daisy, Duke.
You're like Dusty, Hannah, Daisy, Duke.
It would be like someone's like, I don't, they might get vertigo.
They're just like, oh.
Yes.
This was like Sam, and they're like, oh, it's a nice American family.
Yeah, we got, yeah.
And then their wife's Canadian.
They go, wait a second.
But now an American citizen.
She just took her citizenship.
Now she is.
She is here. Yeah. She now an American citizen. She just took her. Now she is. She is here.
She's one of us.
Sam, born from just an American family.
Exactly.
Yeah.
That's true.
Yeah.
Does Daisy get any, like, because her mom was still.
I don't know.
I think she can apply for dual citizenship.
That'd be interesting is like, does Daisy have to go through a lot more headache?
And then Sam's going to be like,
I mean, I'm just rocking and rolling.
Or Daisy can travel more.
Daisy was born in the U.S., right?
Yeah, so she's an American citizen.
Automatically.
She's got a passport already.
Yeah.
Because we went to Canada with her.
Yeah.
Okay.
I got a passport for the first time at like 26.
My daughter already has one yeah i didn't get
on a plane till about 26 yeah i got one late too yeah well i think you just travel more now it's
like it's it's uh uh you just didn't take planes back then you had it was you had to call the
airport it was a whole thing so it wasn. Now you can book one on your phone.
I can book one in under a minute.
You can book a flight.
It's crazy.
So it's just a lot more attainable than it was back then.
Yeah, I mean, I was booking flights in the hospital.
I was just hanging.
I was like, I got nothing going on here.
There's really nothing.
I mean, it seems funny, but it's like my wife's in pain.
She doesn't want me over there going, you okay?
You okay?
How's it going?
So it's better if I just do my own thing.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
The other thing I'll tell him, Dusty, is he has a meal train for people to deliver meals
and he shared it on all his social media for the whole world to see his address and phone
number.
Oh.
I had no idea all that info was in there.
Yeah.
We were just like, well, not a lot of people have signed up was in there yeah we were just like well not a
lot of people have signed up i mean we're fine but not a lot of people had signed up but hannah was
like we were talking we're like why not just share it on social media see what happens so we did and
then someone messages me like an hour later maybe don't share your home address yeah i go wow that's
that's good thinking yeah did you take it down yeah yeah did you get any meal what does that do
well people will sign up and then bring us food they drive it to you yeah brian brought me some That's good thinking. Yeah. Did you take it down? Yeah. Yeah. Did you get any meal? What does that do?
Well, people will sign up and then bring us food.
They drive it to you?
Yeah.
Brian brought me some food yesterday.
Oh.
Yeah?
Did you make something?
Yeah.
What did you cook?
No.
I stopped and I asked him what he wanted.
He said, whatever.
Panera.
Something good.
Cheesecake factory. Cheesecake factory.
Now, he picked up some Whole Foods meal for us.
Oh, that's nice.
Yeah.
Some chicken.
And you take it to the house?
Yeah.
Oh.
Our little daughters hung out yesterday.
Yeah, and played.
Daisy and Eleanor.
Yeah, it was fun.
That's fun.
Yeah.
Got them some Ben and Jerry's ice cream.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know about DoorDash?
Yeah.
Maybe you don't get to.
Actually, Aaron got me some Grubhub.ub hub oh yeah he was willing to drive no see
this is the i'm all about individual choice personal freedom so i said why don't you make
your own choice you get your own food i'm not gonna show up at your house and bother you after
you have a kid you know what i mean you pay for it is that what it is like you just say
it's just a gift card.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And then you can use whatever you want.
Yeah.
That's nice.
Yeah.
So, you know, and my sister's been up all week.
My sister's like a professional mom and she has been knocking it out.
I mean, we've got the house is cleaned.
She cooked all these soups and froze it.
And we got meals for weeks now.
I mean, we're set yeah well i didn't know that when i was bringing that food over well we didn't know she was gonna be doing that
either he's very scraping by yeah go by yeah like this poor mill train yeah only last well you know
what though uh we tore that up yesterday it was so good. Yeah. We tore it up. Daisy appreciated it.
I did not bring anything.
Yeah. That's the bottom line.
That's why I wouldn't even bring up the story.
Yeah. No, it's crazy.
We've been blessed. It's been great.
I've been saying blessed a lot
lately. I'm like an old lady
now. You would like to get, you know that movie
The Village? I watched that with
M. Night Shyamalan.
It's great.
It is a good movie.
How many movies are you going to watch before you watch Shawshank?
A lot.
I got another one I want to talk about today.
Okay.
But it's not that.
But you would like to live in that.
I've never seen it, I don't think.
But it's a village where it's like you want your world.
You want like a town.
It's a major spoiler, by the way.
It's almost like the Amish.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yes.
That is a major spoiler?
Yeah.
What did I say?
They live in a village.
They give that away in the title.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's not.
They live in a village.
They're all like.
But it's like they help each other.
It's like you want.
Like you're a person that likes that.
Like you like, the mill train is part of that.
Like, you know, everybody comes over.
Yeah, I want a little community where we all live and farm together.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And you also put that pressure on your fans.
Yes.
That are just trying to enjoy your comedy.
Just to go, will you also bring me food?
Exactly.
Yeah, it's understandable.
I'm trying to get it.
That's what this comedy is all about. Yeah, yeah. I'm trying to get it. That's what this comment is all about.
I'm not really into comments.
Someone's just like, you know that comic I randomly found?
I got to go drive him to some KFC this weekend.
A lady did, a fan did bring me some food.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah.
Signed up.
We had no idea who she was.
That's nice.
Yeah, she signed up.
I met her at a, actually, my specific address number was not on there.
So you could figure out the street, but not the house.
It's pretty easy.
Well, I mean, they could probably just look for the fence that's wrong.
Yeah.
The only fence that's wrong, and then they narrowed it down.
Well, but I'm not too confident everybody can narrow
things down these days i know but if they go you're the only fence in the neighborhood you're
like you're i mean i'll be out there barefooted in the front yard yeah grass yeah there's a lot
of it's like just drive down the street and go who looks like the problem yeah and then go that's
dusty i asked ruth yesterday so which one of these you house? She's like, it's that one. What pointed
it out to her?
I just realized
a tinfoil on the roof.
That's all in the backyard.
I've been to all
your houses. It's painted, the whole house
is black. It's got that 5G
on the outside of it. I looked up some
5G paint the other day. It's very
expensive. It's dark colored, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, it doesn't look like it's good.
You almost got to put it down as a base coat and then paint whatever color you want over it.
Several coats of primer to cover it.
Yeah.
Well, you did have some random copper wire kind of sticking out of the ground.
Well, that's the electroculture that I've been to.
Oh.
Have I talked about that on here?
I don't think so.
Okay.
But that's maybe one tip for Ruth.
Well, yeah.
I mean, that's where you get the copper wires that you make these antennas that's maybe one tip for ruth well yeah i mean that's the you know electro that's
where you get the copper wires that you make these antennas that's supposed to be collecting
energy from from the atmosphere to bring it down into the garden yeah i'm trying oh that's into
your actual garden yeah yeah the copper wire goes down and runs into the ground and then it
supposed to i mean the garden looks good yeah yeah i don't know i
mean it could be the years the water and sunlight years i've been putting into it but it looks good
this year everything uh i'd imagine for hannah it's a year a lot yeah and like everything's
gonna be we have a garden and then she's got to be like we also have copper wire coming out of the garden it's
everything's gonna be one extra thing yeah she gets a normal life but then also has to go well
we also you know well that's a great thing about this podcast see i put it all out there so
everybody knows yeah so when they meet hannah they already know yeah they say bless her heart yeah
yeah exactly yeah i realize I've been
to all your houses
numerous times
and none of you
have been to mine.
My wife came to your house.
When have you been
to my house?
I've picked you up
and taken you places
when your car wasn't running.
Oh, okay.
I went to your house
a ton though,
your apartment.
Back in the old days,
yeah.
Yeah, well,
I get,
everybody gets,
now it's easier on the road.
When we were shooting your.
Yeah, we were at the resort four times a week shooting auditions.
Yeah.
I can't recall an invite from you.
Yeah, neither can I.
Well, all of you are welcome.
Yeah, thanks, man.
I'll see you tomorrow.
All right.
Now, I came over and you helped me with some Adobe.
Oh, that's right.
I remember that now.
Yeah.
Okay.
Sorry I forgot about that.
It's all right. it's all right it's all right you uh we're doing a big race this weekend huh so yeah so i had uh i went
and did uh i was the pace car supposed to be driver so when they they asked me to do this the
pace car driver uh i was like well they're not gonna let me drive like it you know
you're like it's 2023 like they're not letting people just drive the pace car in front of these
cars that are worth millions of dollars uh but you were i was going to get to which is insane
and uh but but you have to get certified so they like you got it like at 130 i'm supposed to get
there and i gotta go drive around the track a few times so they can be like,
all right, you're good, you got it.
And there was lightning.
So every time there was lightning.
And then it was like I was going to get to do it,
and then there was another strike of lightning.
So then I just never got to get certified.
So I was just a rider in the pace car, which is what I thought I was going to be doing.
But now I'm like, well, I'd like to come back and drive this car.
It's so insane driving it, the pace car, and those cars are behind you.
I mean, they're – Ross Chastain, who won the race, he is directly behind us in the pace car.
And look how close he gets.
He gets – I mean, dude, in these cars, you're seeing them do that turn.
How fast are you going?
Only like 45, 50.
We're not going fast.
Okay.
But it feels like you're going fast.
Yeah.
And then those, I mean, they're just right there, dude.
Like it's, and they're just so, it's loud and they're, like, you get like a little sense of like what it would be out there.
Just like, this is crazy, man.
And it was an awesome, awesome experience.
And going to a live race is really, really fun.
Yeah, it's awesome.
Like going to NASCAR races, when you hear the cars start and they're going,
it's just like, it's very like, man, this is exciting stuff.
Yeah.
And then I met Dale Jr.
That's awesome.
Insane.
I was back there waiting to go get in the pace car.
And then, I mean, he came up to me.
And, like, I mean, I was like, Laura was like, you know,
none of us were just kind of in shock.
And then he was very nice.
And it was, like, super cool to meet him.
Like, I mean, you know, I'm such a big fan of him, obviously.
Yeah.
And then he, you know, you're, I don't know if it is it.
Yeah, I'm doing a gig for him.
Yeah, yeah.
He told me that.
Yeah.
So, yeah, he said we got Dusty doing a charity thing for him.
It's very exciting.
Yeah.
That's how I get the rest of my family to know I've made success.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He was pumped about it.
And so it was, yeah, that was crazy to get to do that.
And the whole day was.
Yeah.
NASCAR's so fun.
NASCAR is fun.
I mean, I don't get into it as much as I used to, but I've been to Bristol.
And you can see the whole track the whole time
because it's such a – it's wild.
Yeah, I would like to go to Bristol.
Yeah.
It would be – when we went to all the kids, because my buddies went,
and then my parents, and then – so all the kids, the girls picked Ross Chastain.
Is that his name?
Yeah, I think it's his name.
And then they picked him at the beginning.
He was the pole setter.
So he was the one in the car that got real close to me.
And they picked him because they don't know that he's a pole setter.
But someone just goes, if he wins, he throws a watermelon on the ground.
So then all the girls are like, well, that's our guy.
And so they picked him to win.
We got shirts with a watermelon on it, and then he wins.
And Justin Smith, our buddy Justin Smith, his girlfriend,
they went to high school with him.
Wow.
And so they're all very proud of him and everything he's doing.
I mean, he's killing it.
And it was, yeah, the whole thing was awesome, dude.
Any idea why he throws a watermelon?
He's from a watermelon farm.
Okay.
So that's the, and then he throws it on the ground and he eats it.
And he eats it like one thing of it where you're like,
ah, that's for show.
And then he picks up another part and eats again.
You're like, I mean, this guy's eating this watermelon.
He's getting after it.
Like he loves watermelon. That's his way of being like, I mean, this guy's eating this watermelon. He's getting after it. Like he loves watermelon.
That's his way of being like, I don't have to work on a farm anymore.
Yeah.
He's throwing it.
Yeah.
We can afford now to just waste watermelon.
Yeah.
So, yeah, the whole thing was awesome.
And we got to go.
And Old Dominion was there.
And so I could see them. It's a band was there, and so I got to see them.
It's a band.
Oh.
But I do like them a lot, and so it was fun to see them
and the Bustin' and the boys, Taylor LeJuan and Will Komp.
They were there.
And so it was like a fun day, a lot of stuff.
All the kids loved it.
Some Titans were there, I saw.
Yeah, I didn't see them i think i saw that now that i saw a picture of him and then i saw that they were there i was like oh i might have seen him standing there at one point i didn't realize
who it was but what more do you have left to do in nashville uh you know governor
I don't know
he skips mayor
goes to state
you should run for mayor
I met the mayor of Lebanon
oh you did
yeah I met him
did he know Brian
did you grow up with him
yeah Brian
I told him
I think he knew you
he didn't know you
and knew everything
but I talked to him
for a second
he was very nice I don't know is it Philip everything, but I talked to him for a second. He was very nice.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Was it Philip Craighead?
Oh, Rick Bell.
Rick Bell.
Yeah, yeah.
Because he worked at, yeah, he was a professor at Cumberland University,
and my sister, when she went there for a second, she took a class with him.
And then her husband works at that school,
and so he was there when he first got hired.
So we just knew a lot of the same people and
then uh uh super nice guy yeah it's cool and then uh yeah yeah i don't know i mean there would be
uh i don't know what there is to do you know have you done the coin toss at a titans game or
something like that no like being 12th man man be cool. 12th man would be good. You rode out on the chariot, but 12th man.
Being 12th man would be good.
What does that mean to be the 12th man?
You're one of the more important men on the team.
Top 13.
You're better than 13th.
The 13th man is he would kill to be in your position, and you know that.
That's why you stay at the 12th.
So it's 11 football players on the field.
So you're the 12th man.
So you represent the crowd.
Oh, okay.
It's like an honor.
I've heard the audience being the 12th man.
Yeah.
Oh, so you just represent the crowd.
Yeah.
And you go and do.
You go out there and you take a big sword.
A sword and stab it in the ground.
Yeah.
Everybody goes.
Yeah, it's fun. All right. I. A sword and stab it in the ground. Yeah. Everybody goes, yeah, that's cool.
Yeah, it's fun. All right, I like that.
Yeah, it's very cool.
And so, yeah, to be 12th man.
You can lead Vandy out on the field.
Yeah, yeah, I've never got to do that.
Lead Vandy out.
I like that.
It gets hard when, like, because we tour when all this stuff is happening.
So it's like I'm just never here.
So when you get asked to do stuff, you just are now busy.
You could present at the NHL Hockey Awards.
Yeah, I'm doing that tonight.
Tonight I'm presenting at the NHL Hockey Awards.
I believe it's on TNT.
I actually have what I got to say.
And I'm going to just do it.
Because it will be out.
I hope this comes out tomorrow.
It's probably live, right?
Yeah, I think it airs tonight.
Yeah, so I can read this now.
But they wrote this, so I got to read this on the-
Give it a run through.
I'm going to get a run through and see how it sounds.
What's up, Nashville?
They got a question mark and apostrophe.
So you're presenting by yourself.
Yeah.
Okay.
I like to do it that way, too.
It shows you're excited.
Yeah.
It's obviously a question, but you're not really asking.
Yeah, it's both.
What's up, Nashville?
Yeah.
You know?
I'm presenting the James Norris Memorial Trophy for Top Defenseman.
Did I say that right?
Defense man.
The first one.
Defense man.
They wrote this joke, and I think I read it quickly.
I think I'm on board.
This person wrote this joke.
I'm pretty impressed with it.
Okay.
Personally, I've never defended anything in my life,
especially myself.
If someone wanted to fight me on the ice,
I'd pull my own jersey over my head
to save time. I'd rather help you so I can get in the penalty box quicker where it's safe.
If the refs gives me five minutes, maybe I'm talking them up to 10 or just kick me out so I
can go to the locker room and shower off my tears. And I'd never get in front of a 100-mile-per-hour
shot, even if my wife was the goalie. I'd be hiding behind her like,
you got the pads, babe.
I'll be the big spoon.
That's just me.
So here are your finalists.
It's pretty good, right?
It's pretty good.
It's pretty good.
It's not bad.
I can probably nade it up a little bit.
Yeah.
And then,
Trevor, top defenseman.
I've never defended anything in my life.
If I had to get in a fight on the ice,
I would pull my own jersey over my head.
And then, let me see.
It would really help me so I can get in the penalty box quicker.
I would just pull my own jersey over my head
and just go right to the penalty box.
And the ref's like, you got five minutes.
I'm like, just give me 10 minutes.
I always thought, too.
I like that.
Yeah, I'm like, just give me 10 minutes.
Give me 10 minutes.
You know what?
I'll leave.
That's how terrifying hockey is.
I would think any time I got kicked out of the game, I would be like, all right.
Like now, I would just be like the relief, you know, just to be like,
I don't got gotta be out there
the rest of the day
alright I'll take it
it is terrifying though
yeah
to think that you
like
to just be able to skate
it would be amazing
but then you also could get
shoulder blocked
you know what I mean
so here are your finals
checked
yeah
so yeah I might be
do I gotta say the whole I guess I, I might be. Do I got to say the whole?
I guess I could.
I might type it out.
I'm presenting.
Yeah.
Personally, I've never defended anything in my life, especially my wife.
You go that and you're like, what?
And you go, what?
And here are the finalists.
I could do my joke about defending.
My old joke, like, we have a gun and I don't remember the joke, but sleeps on their bed.
Personally, I've never defended anything in my life, especially myself.
You could do the one about my wife asked me if I'd take a bullet for me.
Yeah, yeah, that's what I mean.
Yeah, that joke, but like.
I thought you were talking about the home intruder.
Yeah, that's what I thought.
Oh, well, that's what it is, right?
Taking a bullet.
I think about the one with the switchblade.
I thought there were two different jokes.
Yeah, I don't know.
They're all blurred together.
If someone would fight me on the ice, I'd pull my own jersey over my head.
Get right to the chase.
If someone would fight me on the ice, I'd cut right to the chase
and pull my own jersey over my head.
I'd really help you so I can get in the penalty box quicker where it's safe.
See, I don't know if I've never defended anything in my life.
That's the part I don't.
But as it seemed to go,
I'm presenting the James Norris Memorial Trophy for top defenseman.
I'm not a defenseman.
If someone wanted to fight me on the ice, I'd pull my own
jersey over my head and save time. That's better, right? A little right to it. I don't know if I
like... If someone wanted to fight me on the ice, I would... I'm with you. I would just not fight.
I would ask them, if someone wanted to fight me on the ice, I would say, I do not want to fight.
I would say that. That's funny, right? Just to say, I do not.
He goes, let's fight.
I go, I do not want to fight.
Just yell that.
Can you yell that?
You know, just in my mask.
I just, I lifted it.
I do not want to fight.
No, thank you.
And then the ref said, we got to go in the penalty box for five minutes.
You go, I'll just do 10 minutes.
I'll be honest with you, I'm fine with just leaving the game.
I don't know how I made it this far.
And being a goalie, you're like, are you out of your mind?
That puck is so fast.
That's crazy.
And you have all the stuff.
I was a catcher once.
All right, here here your finalist
uh yeah a little something like that it's getting better every time yeah that's getting better a
little choppy little little nady little nady all right all right yeah be a mix of that adam fox
new york rangers uh eric carl carlson eric carlson san jose sharks cow oh boy macar Eric Carlson. Eric Carlson, San Jose Sharks.
Cal, oh boy, McCarr.
Cal, it's C-A-L-E, but it's pronounced K-A-Y-L.
Okay.
Cal?
Cal.
Cal McCarr, Colorado.
It sounds like they just confused the pronunciation.
It's like, that's how I'd say it anyway.
Yeah.
I'll be honest with you.
I kind of hope Adam Fox wins.
And just going off the names.
Yeah.
I hope they're all winners.
Carlson.
That's not that bad.
Kel McCarr, Colorado Avalanche.
Who's going to win?
Did I do it?
Do you have the winner on there?
No, I don't.
Then the James Norris Memorial Trophy goes to...
Read winner's name.
Winner walks up.
They don't give me the...
He'll read that part.
You say it all.
Announce.
Yeah, I keep going.
Winner graphic.
Go.
Winner acceptance. Winner play, go. Winner acceptance.
Winner playoff prisoner.
That's all.
Exit.
And then I keep going.
What's up, Nashville?
I'm presenting the James Norris Memorial Trophy.
All right.
It's exciting stuff, man.
I'm top for top defenseman.
I've never been a defenseman for anything. I don't defend anything.
If someone wanted to fight me on
the ice, I would ask, why am I even
on this ice? That's not
that good, right?
If someone wanted to fight
me on the ice,
I would say, I do not want to fight.
Especially on this ice.
That's pretty good.
Just be very direct with them.
Yeah.
I mean, those hockey fighters is like, what if they did that?
Y'all just start fighting.
Just what if someone goes, I would like, I don't think we,
I don't want to fight.
I'm not a defenseman of my own self.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's a, personally, I'm not a defenseman. You're like, I'm not a defenseman of my own self. Yeah. Yeah, that's a –
You can just flip it all on its head.
You're like, I'm not a defenseman.
I'm more of an offense guy.
I'll come straight at you.
Yeah.
But then I would be fighting.
Yeah.
I'm saying I don't want to fight.
I'm coming right at you.
Yeah.
The ref goes, we'll just go to the penalty box.
Couldn't – would love to.
Go very unnamed.
I go, how great is the penalty box?
The penalty box has got to be just a nice relief.
You've just been in a fight and you're just.
I always think because when the clock's counting down on the penalty,
as soon as it's zero, they open that door and that guy shoots out.
If it were me, I wouldn't have my pads ready.
My stick would be over there.
It would be 15 seconds after it's over and I'd still be gathering my stuff.
I hope the door's locked and they're like, we can't get the penalty.
My dream would be they can't get the penalty box open.
And they go, you got to just stay in there.
And I go, all right, man, I'm so mad.
And I go, I can't get in there.
And then I would say, I couldn't get back in.
I'm so mad.
I couldn't get in there.
And then I would say, I couldn't get back in.
You go take a shower early.
No one's in there.
That's nice.
Your shirt's already off.
Yeah.
They already yanked your jersey off.
I think I'd want to start a fight just to get them to help me.
It'd be hard to get that jersey off with all those pads.
Once a jersey goes over your head, that's tough to... It's tough to come back from that.
It's tough to come back from.
Once someone gets a jersey over their head, that's a tough one.
It's hard to get past that.
Yeah.
All right.
All right.
We'll see how it goes tonight.

I don't know.
We got your baby. I've said a lot.
I've said a lot already.
I've talked about electroculture, which is really what I'm trying to spread.
Yeah, yeah.
Look, I'm just trying to bring some entertainment to this show.
Podcast stuff. I put it in. What is what is oh i did a member guest this weekend too
uh so uh you did what a member guest so the course i'm a member at um every every like private course
has a member guest tournament so you to the member brings a guest and you play yeah and so we made it so we finished second place overall first so there's flights so there's like uh you know like
six teams are in a flight and then you kind of get paired up and then if you win your flight you go
to a shootout and when you go to the shootout everybody that didn't make it goes and drives
golf carts and just follows you around oh wow and wow. And so you're hitting in front of – it's honestly the most nervous –
I honestly, it's more nervous – I was more nervous here than I was Bridgestone.
Really?
I mean, yeah.
I mean, now, Bridgestone, you're doing something I'm way more confident in.
But it's – look at these carts, dude.
You make these putts.
These carts are everywhere.
And then, of course, it's just – you're at a golf course,
so these dudes are loaded.
Yeah.
And they're just yelling.
They're chirping.
There's a lot of like – I was like putting –
so I played White, England.
My buddy Wyatt played out of his mind.
He just really – he's the only reason we were even in this thing.
Kind of bumped you there.
Oh, well, he was pumped, dude.
And he did great.
I had a great chip here.
But Wyatt was the reason we were in play.
And, I mean, there's just carts, dude.
I mean, there's 50 carts just sit with people.
That's crazy.
And you're, you know, and they're like, I had one putt.
That was a little putt.
They're like, you going to make that one?
They're just yelling at you.
And you're like, I don't know if I'm going to make it.
I had a tap-in putt that was two inches, and it was the most nervous putt I was a little putt they're like you gonna make that one they're just yelling at you and you're like i don't know if i'm gonna make i i had a tap-in putt that was two inches and it was the most nervous putt i've had over anything when i played pebble beach i was more nervous over this
just because it was like it like it would just be embarrassing to mess up uh so we finished second
place uh and it was it was very fun and it was a very they they do a great member guest
or i'm sure a lot of people that are golfers play in these and i think i mean every course
the member guest is usually the funnest event uh and it's uh you know it depends on where you're
at they can just be i mean they can get you know there's another one course that why it's a member
they said they did one and there was just a big fight like i mean people
you know it's like any of these dudes are just they go out and just the people that drink they
start early and i mean it's 8 a.m that's what golf is all about i thought was about the drink it's
well i it's people like to play it but a giant portion of it is the is the drinking and uh so
they're they love it.
Yeah.
Like, you know, and then you do something like this.
It's like their wives know, like, it's member guest.
You know, they make a big speech about it, I'm sure.
It's member guest.
You got to, it's going to be, and they know they're going to get there at
8, 7 a.m. and they're not going to leave until 7 or 8 p.m.
And then they're going to come home and, home, and it's going to be a problem.
Like these dudes, it's just a bunch of old dudes that are getting after it.
But we loved it, and everybody was super cool, and it was super fun.
And so we did that.
So the movie I want to say, because I know I feel like I've talked a lot.
So I watched Vertical Limit. you got so the movie i want to say because i know i feel like i've talked a lot uh so i watched uh uh vertical limit you ever seen vertical limit no i don't know it never heard of it uh it's got
uh those people in it so chris o'donnell's in it bill paxton's in it uh robin tooney
like you know them all yeah that main That main guy, though. Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's been in some stuff.
Scott Glenn.
He's not the main.
He's one of the, I mean, he's a somewhat main guy.
Bill Paxton, probably.
Bill and Chris O'Donnell are probably the two big ones.
But they want to climb the K2 Mountain, which is like the crazy mountain and then they get most difficult one on earth to climb they say so he wants to go climb this mountain in the movie
uh it was like there's just funny stuff in it uh like i've talked about it i've talked about
when you write a tv show it's like you got to have conflict sure you know and so like that's
what if you if you a movie or a tv show like if you go try
to sell it to a network or somewhere they're going to be like well where's the conflict
and this was nothing but conflict it's a it starts with the hardest mountain ever to climb so there's
your first conflict yeah and then it's like the second uh and then the conflict after, it was like too much. So to start the movie, the girl, Chris O'Donnell and that Robin,
or Toonie, are brother and sister.
Their dad dies.
So their dad dies in a climbing accident with them.
So there's your first conflict.
Their dad's gone.
They're still into climbing.
Yeah.
Well, yeah, they're both into climbing yeah they're well yeah they're both into climbing they don't talk that much the the uh robin has become the best
female climber in the world and uh chris o'donnell is i forget what he is he's like 1000 journalists
no he's like a he's i don't know what he is he's like a journalist or something like that
and uh but he's in still climbing.
So then they randomly are at K2 at the same time.
And so now they're there.
And it's like, oh, you know, I don't want to tell you,
your sister's down there.
And it's like, oh, how's she doing?
It's all these mountain people that are like, you know, she's doing art.
They all just know each other.
And I guess they were.
How's she doing?
She's the best in the world.
She's the best in the world.
Yeah, she's on the cover of Sports Illustrated.
She was like doing all this stuff.
So then they go down there, and she's climbing Bill Paxton, who's a billionaire that wants to go up there.
He wants to climb K2, and he wants to push it.
He doesn't care.
He's going to get up to the mountain.
Last time he tried, I think people died, and the weather became bad,
and so he couldn't do it.
So this time he's like,
well,
I'm going to do it.
And they're like,
the weather looks good and all this stuff.
Weather's not good.
Did you watch this movie because of how relevant it is to everything that
happened over the weekend?
No.
With Titanic?
Yeah.
With the submarine?
No,
no.
The parallels are pretty,
pretty obvious.
Oh,
it's crazy.
A billionaire who.
Yeah, that is
everything goes down yeah i'd say with this the that with the titanic stuff i felt like i there
was a lot of jokes and stuff but you're like i didn't really love all the joking i hated the
jokes you're like so memes and stuff and you're like it's as a society you want to go you know
dude like i mean they had no idea like what are these bad people
like everybody's like happy there's a lot of that like a lot of that where you're like what's wrong
with you like it's sad i totally agree with you dustin nickerson had the best tweet i saw he said
the reason that james cameron had to put a leo dicaprio a poor young kid in titanic is because
if it wasn't for that, it would be a comedy.
Just rich people dying on a ship.
Yeah.
You got to put a poor person there for people to care.
Yeah.
Which I thought was a good point.
Yeah.
That's funny.
Yeah, it's still like, you don't root for it, man.
Like, it's whatever.
Like, it's crazy.
What do you think really happened, Dusty?
Well, I've not been able to keep up with it,
but I always think it probably just didn't happen. Oh, yeah. That's what I you think really happened dusty so well i've not been able to keep up with it but i always think it probably just didn't happen oh yeah that's what i always think yeah i didn't i didn't
get to you know it's hard to watch stuff when you got vertigo and a baby i can't be like hey
keep the baby down i'm trying to watch a video on the submarine yeah but that's always my thought
and also i thought you know what maybe have nasa build
you some submarines yeah it was just uh uh they've been down a bunch can't seem to figure out this
water thing we got space down pretty well let's get nasa working on these submarines it's someone
it's it's i think uh it's gonna roll i think everybody like takes, like now with social media, weirdly enough,
it's like people take things very lightly.
And this is my back to how great life is right now,
even though the terrible things.
Everybody thinks like, well, you can't die anymore.
Like nothing's going to happen to you.
Like life is amazing.
And they almost, so they're they're like yeah we'll just go
down there and go see it and you're like hey it's uh nature and everything's kind of like yo we're
still like a problem and if you go i mean once you go down to a certain level like light is not
down there and then like you get so deep it's like that submarine just goes and crumbles and so then
the guy that's making the submarine like like, seems like there was problems there.
Like, that guy's just trying to, like, make money.
I mean, they don't, no one, you can't trust anybody who wants to put in hard work.
And they just picked, and it's horrible, but they got a guy that was running that thing that apparently did not want to work.
He doesn't, they don't want to work.
They don't want to overly check everything.
They don't want to be,. People are not serious about things.
You might think about getting a remote control operator
to try that thing a couple of times before you send people.
Well, they have.
That was the thing.
They've made successful trips down there.
But it's just-
In that submarine.
Yeah.
But it was just a matter of time before.
So who were the people on the submarine?
Maybe they were trying to kill those people.
No.
Well, I mean, it's a billionaire and his son.
I mean, it costs like 150 250 grand
250 000 250 000 so i saw one thing mr beast said he was asked to go on yeah yeah and then he didn't
but it's like uh yeah i mean i luckily it's like not luckily but like that's something i would
never be able you're in a just a two size of a minivan almost smaller yeah and you're just
sitting in there and it's eight hours down yeah i'm not into it and like that would be
if you want a contest somehow you can go for free would you do it no no i couldn't say if
they're giving it away i would need i don't know if i would enjoy like seeing the pictures of it
you're still seeing that titanic through a window uh-huh
so it's like what's the difference of me i would be more interested to like go down enough where
you can't see sunlight like i think that would be kind of crazy oh you can do that yeah no i know
pretty easily well i'm saying like there's stuff like that i'd be more interested in like just
being like let's go down to like whatever the safest areas that's like no sunlight and i don't know if i need to go down to the
bottom of you know that stuff but most people want to see things you want to see less you want
to well i'm saying if you're seeing it through a window and then like you're just like stuff could
go wrong there's like a national geographic video where this guy talked about going way deep down
and he was like they got so far down that they were like underwater lakes and i don't even know how
that's possible but he he did it was a national geographic thing where he talked about there being
underwater lakes wow it's so wild that's why i'm like always like the ocean seems so much
more interesting to me than space uh i just don't know why that's not our main exploration.
I think we're trying.
Yeah, and then everyone laughs when you die trying.
Yeah.
Yeah, they should.
Well, I don't think it's funny if people die, but I always question if that even.
Yeah, if there is an ocean.
Exactly.
Exactly.
Say there's been a lake and an ocean.
You tell me.
Well, if you've seen some of the Great Lakes, you're like, wow, is this the ocean?
Yeah, you can't tell.
Yeah.
So I did not do it because of that.
So I was watching Vertical Limit.
I guess I don't know if I'm going to ruin it.
This is a very old movie.
This came out in 2000.
Yeah, it's 2000, and it's like, I'm not, there's no, you know, this is not a.
I've never even heard of this movie.
Yeah, this is not a movie that you're like, it's not Sixth Sense.
Oh, I thought it was great.
Yeah, I know.
This means, this increasingly, the Rotten Tomatoes score means nothing to me.
Yeah, but the audience one is usually pretty good.
I don't even care about the audience one.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, it was like...
Have you ever filled out a review on Rotten Tomatoes?
No.
Well, there you go.
It's just like, who's taking the time to review this stuff?
Chris O'Donnell really had a moment, but he's kind of gone now.
He did.
He's still great.
So they go in, right?
So he wants to go climb up he's using this person
so then there's that guy that you said is in other movies uh scott glenn scott glenn so he's like a
guy that's climbed the mountains forever and uh he's been up there he's lost all his toes and he
took the billionaire guy the first time he took them up.
And then, so this billionaire guy goes up again.
And then that's when he gets them to be like,
Chris, my sister's up there.
We need you to go help us climb because we got to get there in 24 hours or they're going to die because there's an avalanche
and they got crammed under the avalanche because there's a storm.
Because when they're climbing, there's a storm.
And then they go, hey. Obstacle after go obstacle after i mean just like conflict conflict they goes there's a storm and
then they go uh all right the guy goes well we're just going to keep going bill paxton the billionaire
goes we're just going to keep going and then the other guy's like i mean it's a storm like it's
like it's just over and then he talks them into it. And then the girl, that's the greatest climber ever, is like, I'm sure it's fine.
Like, she doesn't, you know, her whole life is on a mountain.
Yeah.
And you're on the craziest mountain ever.
And that's like the most known thing, that storms come.
And so they go, they fight through it.
If you're looking at this picture, million bait back back breaking falls those falls
where you got a rope just tied around you yeah i mean everybody fell like that three to four times
i mean your back would be shattered it would just be okay like you know uh so a ton of those falls
and then uh they go up.
They get that helicopter.
I mean, everybody almost dies with that helicopter.
There's a war going on between India and maybe Iran or something.
Pakistan?
Pakistan, maybe.
It's something.
So that war is going on.
And that's just kind of the backdrop.
Is this mountain in that part of the country? Yeah. Okay. the backdrop is just like there's a war going on between these countries
and then the uh i think the indian dudes that were like ran the government were like oh well
we have these like uh explosives you can take and try to blow up the hole to get them out of
the avalanche they were buried underneath yeah so they take that
up and then uh they realize well sun gets on that and it makes it explode so then they gotta then
they gotta put the they gotta get it immediately in snow and cool it down uh but i mean they all
all of them explode there's three of them and uh all but one explode the other two just explode
just on their own,
like randomly,
like they drop.
It's a big thing.
Then the avalanche comes.
I'm trolling off now.
Oh,
then when they're climbing the mountain,
so they finally get that guy to go.
That's the big climber with no toes.
Yeah.
They get him to come climb.
And it's a big deal that he's,
cause he's done it that quickly before.
And so he's going-
But he had toes last time.
He lost his toes because of frostbite.
He's lost his toes, but he's going to do it.
And then Chris O'Donnell's going up there.
They need his help.
They're trying to save his sister.
It's always funny to me when you're like, you got this time strain in a movie,
but they still got to have moments of they're just sitting there like hanging out laughing.
And you're like, I mean, wouldn't you be – I think the vibe would be pretty crazy.
Yeah.
Like there doesn't feel like a sense of urgency when the urgency is like we have 24 hours or they're dead.
Right.
And –
Got to humanize them a little bit.
Yeah.
And then so he's climbing up.
Chris O'Donnell and him are climbing up the rocks. And then Chris O'Donnell just taught them.
They're on the side of a two-mile rock, just nothing beneath them.
And Chris O'Donnell's like, he goes, I don't feel like you're climbing for the right reasons.
He tells that guy that he needs.
And he goes, if you've got another agenda, then maybe we don't need you to do this.
And you're like, and the guy's like, your sister's going to die in 12 hours.
Yeah, climbing for the wrong reasons.
Like, he's like, I'll just do it on my own.
And then he goes, then he just gives him the things.
And he goes, then go do it.
You've got 12 hours.
He's like, you know, like you need him.
So then he agrees to keep climbing.
So then there was that fight.
Like, it's crazy that Chris O'Donnell's mind would even go to his sister.
He sounds like a journalist.
He's trying to press his –
Yeah.
He's trying to help his sister, and he just out of nowhere just goes,
yeah, you know what?
I don't like this.
I mean, the way you vibe.
I don't like the vibe.
I get it.
The way you describe it, though, makes me see why I got 41%.
You're describing it negatively.
It was very fun though
what was robin in she was in 90210 sure uh i don't know i recognize her she's been in a ton of stuff
dex so then when they're in there dexater is like this whatever they take dexater helps them
take a shot of dexter i guess it's like a steroid or something and it helps them if you do it. And so not to give it all away, but that billionaire, Bill Paxson,
he has dexater.
They're trapped.
What's dexater?
It's like I think a steroid.
I don't even know.
But it's like you take it, and it helps you stay alive.
But it could not be real too.
But there's three of them trapped.
One guy looks like he's dying so then bill
paxton's like well we don't need to give him the dex star he's gonna die but the girl's like no
we're gonna give it to him so they both take it and then bill paxton ends up killing him and then
the then you find out the old man uh his wife was killed by bill paxton the last time they went
because the dex this exact same thing this exact same thing. Whoa. This is the exact same thing.
Bill Paxton has gone to the K2 Mountain twice
and got himself in the exact same situation.
Both times, got trapped, had a bunch of Dexitar,
and then just immediately was like,
well, none of y'all can have it because you're basically dying.
And then the guy's wife was no, you know.
And then so that's the movie.
Did they make it to the top?
I bet if people made it through that, that's pretty impressive.
If people probably fast forward it, as I was doing this,
I was like, this is not making sense.
Did they get to the top though?
They got to them. They weren't getting top, though? They got to them.
They weren't getting to the top.
They got to them.
They reached their vertical limit.
Yeah.
They reached, yeah.
They go, you're past the, there's a lot of that.
You're past the vertical limit.
So vertical limit is the past of the point where they said,
you're not dying up there.
You're already dead.
That's what the guy said.
So everybody was already past the point of like.
Don't you like when they say the title of a movie in a movie?
It's fun for me.
I like it.
He goes, you can't.
Well, it's when it comes out of nowhere.
Yeah.
And you're just like, I don't know if I like-
The best is when Tommy Lee Jones in The Fugitive does it.
Yeah.
Well, how does he do it?
Well, he comes and he goes, we got ourselves a fugitive.
You know, something like that.
That's fun.
Yeah, it's a good one. That's a good one. It's like how you do it? Well, he comes and he goes, we got ourselves a fugitive. You know, something like that. That's fun. Yeah, it's a good one.
That's a good one.
It's like how you do it.
I think that was special.
It was like I did full-time magic.
Kneel Down by Clown or Two that I say.
But after that, I was like, I didn't think I wanted to do it.
Like it felt weird.
But I think it'd have to be.
It's like how it's done.
It's a tricky thing.
It has to be done in a way where you almost don't even realize it was done you didn't say hello world when you started your special no
i said i did say the tennessee kid yeah when i walked out like i'm the tennessee kid
uh all right all right look All right, look. I'm the Tennessee kid.
They constantly called.
I wrote all this down.
You took some real show notes.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Man.
They say the storm is coming.
They go, it's coming.
And he goes, we're fine.
You know, stuff like that.
I like Bill Paxton.
Rest in peace, man.
Yeah.
He was great.
He died, huh?
He did, yeah.
Oh, he did?
Mm-hmm.
Oh, that's tough. He's been in a lot of great movies. Apollo 13. Tomb great. Oh, he died, huh? He did, yeah. Oh, he did? Mm-hmm. Oh, that's tough.
He's been in a lot of great movies.
Yeah.
Apollo 13.
Hmm.
Tombstone.
Oh.
All right.
We've got to read some of your comments.
We're worried.
Well.
What do you got to do?
You climb a mountain like that, you make all those back-breaking falls, you're going to
need a Helix mattress.
That is true.
And thanks to our friends at Helix Sleep for sponsoring this episode.
thanks to our friends at Helix Sleep for sponsoring this episode. Now, I bought a twin-size Helix mattress not long ago for my daughter. We're going to transition her into that mattress. But
because we brought a new baby home, my wife has been kind enough to really do all the baby stuff
at night and lets me sleep. So I've been sleeping on this Helix Twin mattress. And I got to tell you.
me sleep. So I've been sleeping on this Helix twin mattress. And I got to tell you.

Everett, hello
folks and hey bear.
12 minutes in and it's clear this episode is going to be an all-timer.
Buckethead has really brought his stage slash podcast persona to the next level.
Fun times, gentlemen. Thanks for the laughs.
When I read this earlier, I didn't realize they were talking about Brian.
I thought that you guys were mentioning the guitar player, Buckethead.
Oh, there's a...
Yeah, and I was like, whoa, what happened?
We brought him on.
That's a real person?
Buckethead, what band is he in?
I don't know if he's in a band.
Ex-Guns N' Roses guitarist, Buckethead.
Yeah, I feel like he played with...
I don't know.
I don't know his whole history,
but yeah, Buckethead's a...
Is it Slash?
I don't think so.
It looks like he's got long hair like Slash.
But apparently very good.
Yeah.
Tyler Johnson.
In a span of 30 seconds, Nate asked where they run the Indianapolis 500
and said the race is run through the city and said,
never mind, it's run on a square track.
That is what keeps me coming back.
Do a little circle of emotions there.
Brandy Sheckles Coy.
Brandy Sheckles Coy.
It was PF Flyers in the Sandlot, Aaron.
Maybe Brad Pitt wore Chucks and Moneyball.
Now, I've got these two shoes pulled up.
Tell me these don't look similar.
That's a PF Flyer.
That's a Converse shoe. Almost
the same shoe. I mean, they're built
exactly the same with the rubber bottom
and then a canvas
on the side. Were the PF Flyers like a cheaper version?
I think they were the
premium. Oh, really?
I mean, in the movie, they're built up to be
this is a huge deal that he has these
shoes. Yeah. These are the fastest shoes
in the world. Yeah.
And they look exactly like Converses.
But they're not.
But they're not.
And I'm sorry about that.
Yeah.
Get it right.
That's embarrassing.
Yeah.
Sarah Cranston.
I work at a specialty running shoe store,
and I just have to say the book Born to Run made some good points,
but it didn't mention concrete at all.
We live in an industrialized nation. Good recovery. Yeah. And people read that book,
read that book and went out to buy those five finger shoes, then injured themselves. And there
was a class action lawsuit. If you're hanging out on the golf course all day, wear whatever you want,
but if you're hitting the pavement, please have some cushion.
So people were buying those five-finger shoes and going and running on concrete?
Mm-hmm.
Wow.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, there should be some laws in there for just people's own stupidity.
You know what I mean?
Like you're buying these, and you're like, oh, there's not a lot of cushion. I'm going to go run on concrete.
And so they'd be breaking the law.
You should not be allowed to sue.
Oh, yeah. That's what I mean.
You know what I mean?
Yeah. Well, I mean, suing is
like a fun thing.
What are these golf shoes, Nate?
Five-fingered golf shoes.
You think if I showed up on the course with these?
I think your swing, they'd be like, that makes sense.
What kind of comments would they say at the member guest round?
Yeah.
If you showed up like that and was like a two handicap,
then you'd be.
But yeah, if you showed up like that and you swung,
you'd be like, we're in for a long day.
Josh Case.
While Nate was giving Mike a hard time by the size of his shoes,
he said they cost more because they have to use a wheelbarrow
to bring them into the store.
I'm just curious how many of the band know that it's actually wheelbarrow.
I did not.
Is it?
That's what I've always said is a wheelbarrow.
It is wheelbarrow.
I got into this because a children'srow. It is wheelbarrow.
I got into this because a children's book had that in there like that.
And I had no idea.
I've always called it a wheelbarrow myself.
And it is a wheelbarrow.
Wow.
Yeah.
I've never heard of that.
But then you think, why would it be called a wheelbarrow?
A barrel?
Yeah.
I would think because it's like half of a barrel, almost.
You turn a barrel over, cut it in half.
But I think a barrel, I think of a wooden barrel.
Oh, I think of a metal barrel that you could burn, put a fire in.
Oh, I think of the wooden Donkey Kong barrel.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I mean, that's like one that you like,
do they just switch it to barrel then? Just because you're like, we're all doing that. Look, that's like one that you like, do they just switch it to barrel then?
Just because you're like, we're all doing that.
Look, that's just.
Yeah.
Is it, you say if you buy, I've never heard that.
That's unbelievable.
Barrow is a derivation of the old English baroo,
which was a device used for carrying loads.
That's where barrel comes from. You would say it.
That's what I was taught growing up.
Yeah, you were taught the right much the rest of us have just heard old relatives say it over the years
when that wheelbarrow yeah we dug into the etymology at my house so you've always said
it the right way wheelbarrow is how i've always said it yeah it's unreal i know unreal very educated yeah it is a long line of education
long line that's how you get into it's good we shouldn't criticize aaron for being educated no
that's right i'm marveling at it take a submarine down to sorry uh michael caulfield michelle michelle caulfield my husband is a retired fire captain yeah
my husband is a retired fire captain all the guys in his city's department have a saying for calling
out sick throwing a shoe what all the guys in his city's department have a saying for calling out
sick throwing a shoe it originated from the fact
that way back before motorized vehicles fire engines were wagons pulled by horses and when
a horse loses his shoe it can't work until the shoe is replaced i like that yeah that's fun
they know the reason behind it old sayings like that are fun yeah uh that's what i'm you know the reason of throwing a shoe
you know this throwing a shoe saying no i didn't know oh okay well i thought that's not real mad
there for a second it did sound like you were saying like oh i've only said that now i know
what i'm saying i like old sayings like that that's a fun to learn a new one yeah yeah i'm
gonna throw in a shoe next week i don't know know if I can handle them, but not back to back.
Yeah.
Not Will Barrow, and then you also know throwing a shoe.
Well, throwing a shoe seems like more of a-
I need one in between.
That seems like more of an expression people that say Will Barrow would know.
Oh, yeah.
That's an old school.
Like Aaron's family had cars before everybody else did.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, he didn't know P.F. Flyers and Sandlot, so.
Y'all probably never owned a donkey.
All horses.
Yeah.
Like, you know.
Get that mule off our yard, as you say next to the slave family.
Amanda Zirdirek.
Zirdirek. Zirdirek.
They say all three names for serial killers as a courtesy for people who have the same name.
I assume people appreciate it if their name is the same as the killer.
Still probably awkward for your neighbors who don't know your middle name.
Excited to see you in Tampa in December and looking forward to Nate's interperation
of how my name is pronounced because I can't even say it
correctly.
That's funny.
Yeah.
Interper...
Why don't you say that word?
Interperation.
Aaron's sitting this one out.
Interpretation.
Yeah, you got it.
Interpretation.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know what it is, Aaron.
It's killing you inside.
I was just in Tampa.
Did you know there are chickens everywhere in that city?
Oh, really? Just on the street. in that city? Oh, really? Yeah.
Just on the street. Ybor City?
Yeah, Ybor City. Just packs of chickens
running around. Yeah, it's wild. And everybody
acts like it's normal. It's like, this is not
going on other places.
Key West, it was like that when I was there, too.
What happened? I think they... Like Florida.
Yeah, they just let them roam.
Maybe there's not a lot of coyotes down
there. We need to introduce some coyotes into that.
Yeah.
There's a lot of big snakes.
Yeah.
That's true.
They're not on the street, thankfully.

I'm loving the throwing of the tennis balls after the wedding.
Weird family traditions are the best, and they seem so normal to you,
but no one else gets it.
My uncle heard about this, and he sent me some pictures
to verify that this happened.
Looks like Hillary Clinton behind him.
What was that?
Young Nate?
It was a young Nate hanging out the tennis balls.
It does.
This is a family friend, Peters.
I think that's who that is, handing out tennis balls.
We got them very... Peters? Yeah, Peters is his name., Peters. I think that's who that is, handing out tennis balls. We got him very...
Peters?
Yeah, Peters is his name.
Plural.
Yeah.
Last name, I'm guessing.
No, that's his first name.
Oh.
He played football at Purdue, actually.
What's his last name?
Dry.
Dry.
That guy right there handing out the tennis balls.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
That's my sister on the right.
You want him to throw a tennis ball?
No, he's younger than this.
He won football?
Yeah, yeah.
Peters is his first name?
Yeah, it's a family name.
And then this is a picture of them actually getting pelted here.
That's your sister getting hit?
No, my sister's not in this picture, but these are my cousins.
Oh, look at that.
She's wearing a bag.
Yeah, they're really getting hit with these things.
He says this is payback for he had played some pranks on his uh couple of his other sister's
weddings yeah and then this was getting back at him and then it just kept going yeah and it just
became a thing yeah and the way you would have a history like that the webers have a history
what do you mean like a tradition like this is like it seems like you're like an old saying
like the throwing a shoe is like that.
Like it's going to be, you know,
when people read the encyclopedia about the Webers.
Yeah.
And it talks about your family, how dominant y'all were,
and just on the, you know, came from a lot of big money.
Right.
Stuff like that.
Even that basket looks fancy.
Yeah.
And then they're going to go, and then now we all throw tennis balls.
And they go, how did that get started?
And you go,
well.
Yeah.
You know,
the Weber family,
everybody goes,
of course.
Of course.
In defense of Aaron,
he counted out donuts at his wedding.
He's taking it in a different direction.
I do like the tennis balls.
I would love to have done the tennis balls.
I think we just forgot about it.
Maybe the next one.

Birdseed Baits is not wrong
It was tradition to throw rice at weddings
But there was an urban legend that it would kill birds if they ate it
They changed it to birdseed in the 80s
After Connecticut banned throwing rice at weddings
Do we know that's an urban legend?
I looked on Snopes and they say it's
not true. I don't trust Snopes.
I know you don't.
But it's like, yeah, it makes sense though. If the birds
eat the rice and then it swells
up in their stomach. I don't think it makes
the birds explode, but it could kill them.
What did they tell you not to give seagulls
Alka-Seltzer, right? At the beach?
That's one of the things they tell you.
They do.
It's a little different.
Who would be doing that?
I think people were doing it.
I have heard that.
Because if you're-
If they can't digest it, they blow up.
Sailors out at sea would take Alka-Seltzer, and if they're stranded at sea, they would throw it up.
And the seagull comes in, snatches it.
Dies, and then you got some food in your boat.
Oh, I thought they were doing it just for entertainment.
No, I think it's a way to.
That's good that there's a purpose behind it.
Okay.
Yeah.
So don't do that at the beach.
I may have totally made that up, but I feel like I heard that.
I just think people at the beach are like, oh, man, this fish must be giving these seagulls heartburn.
Yeah.
Dead gummit.
Guys got to climb down a ladder.
Hey!
Hey! Look at the sign. What does it say about Arkansas? Yeah. Dead gummit. You guys got to climb down a ladder. Hey! Hey!
Look at the sign.
What does it say about Alka-Seltzer?
Yeah.
No Alka-Seltzer.
How much Alka-Seltzer does a man need?
Let's throw Alka-Seltzer at weddings.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
I never heard that at all.
You never heard about the rice or the Alka-Seltzer?
The Alka-Seltzer.
Yeah.
Enough that it was like when you walked out to a beach, they were like just to head down.
Yeah.
The Gizmodo said they will not blow up if they eat Alka-Seltzer.
But they might die.
It sounds like they're encouraging us to go try it.
Yeah.
Who was bringing Alka-Seltzer?
All out of popcorn.
I guess I'll start throwing this Alka-Seltzer.
I think the people that need Alka-Seltzer, they don't have the freedom to be wasting it like that.
I wouldn't be wasting it.
Yeah.
This guy said, do not give peanut butter to small birds.
Man, we're finding out the hard way.
They can't eat a lot of stuff.
And at the end of it, he says,
I have not fed peanut butter to small birds.
So he writes this thing and goes, do not give peanut butter to small birds. So he writes this thing and goes,
do not give peanut butter to small birds.
They can't swallow it and it will harm them.
I have not fed peanut butter to small birds.
For the record.
Yeah.
I don't know from experience.
It feels like I know a lot about this.
That's just coincidence.
You're like, okay, guy that probably fed peanut butter to small birds.
Like no one says, no one at the end of it goes, by the way, I have not.
Yeah.
You shouldn't do it. Listen, I've seen this dog, but it, I have not. Yeah. You shouldn't do it.
Listen, I've seen this dog, but it did not come from my jaw.
He goes, I did not do it.
You should ask Greg Warren.
Yeah.
To their meat eaters.
This guy says, I've eaten seagull once.
It was pretty good.
We caught a young one which lived outside the city and probably eaten most fish.
Oh, so there's a big debate going on whether you should eat seagulls.
Personally, I don't think you should.
What if you're lost at sea?
This guy says the eggs of seagulls are pretty good, though.
Check the local laws before gathering.
Yeah.
How do you go find these local laws for this stuff?
Yeah.
Where do you go?
Do you go in the court?
You can go to City Hall.
And you go,
what's the filling
on the seagull eggs here?
A few seagull eggs.
Yeah.
Do you just have a seagull section?
Yeah.
I just want to dig into that.
Can I go to your seagull section, please?
And then you go over
and you open a big book.
And it's like no accessor.
It doesn't say anything about the eggs.
Yeah.
And you go, oh.
Now, what nest is it
you have on your front porch?
Doves.
Oh, dove nest, yeah.
They hatched, grew up, and flew away.
Oh.
It was amazing.
That's, well.
I watched these doves grow up.
They flew away, and the next day I had a baby.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
Oh, that's nice.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I hope they don't come back.
Well.
Well, me too, I guess.
I don't know why I hope they don't come back, but the way you've said it, I hope.
I'll throw a tennis ball at them.
Josh Lute.
I deliver for DoorDash.
Late last year, I delivered Chick-fil-A to Michael Jordan.
Oh, wow.
He lives here in South Florida, and he ordered two spicy chicken sandwiches
and a waffle fry.
The tip was not great, but it was pretty cool to see his house
and the golf course that surrounds it.
That's nice.
I think the problem is everybody expects Michael Jordan's going to give a huge tip.
I don't know what you're going to give.
You can't be like he's going to give you $100.
I'd imagine if you're Michael Jordan,
you got to at least, you need to at least go to the top.
I think you got to do more than that.
I know, but that's like a lot of extra, like you got to go type in $10 or something.
But I mean, how much are you going to give?
For a, you just give a spicy chicken sandwiches and a waffle fry.
So that's probably $11, $15.
That's probably $30 total with all the DoorDash fees and stuff.
No.
Yeah, dude.
It adds up.
I'm telling you.
So $30.
I trust Aaron on this.
With no drink, maybe $26, $27.
And then, so then what do you think he's going to give, $20?
Yeah, if you're Michael Jordan.
If it's $20, is someone going to consider $20 great?
Like, are they going to be like,
well, he's Michael Jordan.
He should give me $1,000.
Like, you know, it's like.
I guess you're right.
I guess it would take a lot
for somebody to be like,
yeah, it was a nice tip
from Michael Jordan.
Tell us how much it was.
How much was the tip?
Well, I think Josh.
Tell us where his house is.
No, well, yeah.
I think, but Josh is saying,
like, it was, you know,
it's like, it is pretty cool to see
you see the right things that you're like
yeah the tip might have been great but like
you know I delivered to Michael Jordan
it's like the story was worth it
you tell that story the rest of your life
but why even include that the tip wasn't great
because we would have asked about it
because everybody's going to immediately say what'd you get
he's like take him to two houses
yeah
and you go what I know he's rich? He's like, I think he gave me two houses. Yeah.
You got one?
I know he's rich, but it's like for the rest of his life, every time he orders food, he's got to tip
people a hundred bucks now.
I think a lot.
Some people, I think you got to tip
you could end up, when you're that
you have to tip more.
You got to tip
a hundred percent. Is he a billionaire? Yeah. That, no, you have to tip more. If you're a, you got to tip 100%. I mean, I think.
Is he a billionaire?
Yeah.
But it could, you got to tip 100% of the, whatever your thing is.
There's a point where you like, I think you probably just give out hundreds.
Maybe Josh didn't have good service.
No, Josh.
The way I read this is Josh did great.
It could have showed up cold.
He asked for three spicy chicken sandwiches.
Josh wrote it.
Of course he's going to act like he did great.
I think I'm on team Josh.
I was until Dusty made that point.
Now I'm on team Jordan.
As a server, I was always honest.
When people didn't tip me well, I would ask myself, was that service good?
Sometimes it wasn't.
I don't think he's really saying.
He's saying the tip was not great.
Like he's saying it like, you know,
how was the tip?
You're like, not great.
He was like, whatever.
It was fine.
But I got to see his house and stuff.
That's pretty cool.
Like that's how I'm reading him with Josh.
He's like, he's not mad that he's not tipping.
No, I'm joking.
He should hand out some of his old shoes or something
just out the door.
Just leave him with a billion.
What I'm reading is this guy had everything
and he had an opportunity to give me something and didn't.
Oh, I don't read it like that.
That's how I read Josh.
No, because it would have been way more about the tip.
Because when I worked way to tables, a girl did that about a Cubs player,
and she called in a radio.
Like, I saw people act like that.
Oh, yeah.
And they ain't acting like – they don't sound like Josh.
They sound like, can you believe this
like they
you know
people that are rooting
for the Titanic
but Josh has said
all this for a year
or so
six months
he hasn't said it
we've never talked
about DoorDash
until last week
yeah we talked about
famous people
that ordered DoorDash
rich people
yeah
so that's where
it all came from
but who knows?
Sarah Taylor.
Brian, I was at that event at the Music City Center.
I felt terrible for you.
They had you go on at the worst possible time.
We couldn't hear you at all.
We were all chatting with friends we had not seen in a year and all so confused.
They should have had you go on during dinner.
I am so sorry.
We felt terrible for you.
I got three or four comments.
People that were there?
That were there.
Hers was the nicest.
I like that she says, I felt terrible for you.
And then she said, we were all chatting with friends.
Yeah.
Like, not they were.
We were. Yeah. Well not they were, we were.
Yeah.
Well, it's a tough situation where they haven't seen them in a year
and they're like, oh, I can't wait to catch up with you and all this.
And then they do the show.
Even the same, they should have you gone during dinner.
You don't even want to go on during dinner,
but that would have been better.
In this rare case, it would have.
It really hurt that they had no idea that there was going to be entertainment
and they're just confused.
One person said, was that a youth pastor up there giving a testimony?
Yeah.
They just didn't know what it was.
Youth.
The senior pastor going up there, the youth pastor.
Well, it doesn't mean I'm a youth.
It just means that's who I oversee.
I still don't think you're.
Well, you're giving me a compliment then.
You're paying me a compliment by calling me the senior pastor.
I'm saying. However you want to spin it. I think by calling me the senior pastor. I'm saying...
However you want to spin it.
Yeah.
I think he's just calling you old.
I don't think you're in charge.
I think you talk to the seniors.
Yeah.
I think they willed your group
out of the main church
and now they're in another church.
I think as a youth pastor,
I don't know if they're going
to have someone that,
you know,
their grandfather... I mean, I missed this, though.
Is there a way to tell me what happened?
I did a show at the Music City Center, corporate, and they wanted to recreate a night at the Opry.
Okay.
So they had a country music singer go.
So they didn't do it.
No.
I showed a video last week.
It was a Wednesday night at the Opry.
I showed a video last week.
video last week there's a Wednesday night at the opera yeah I showed a video last week uh the tables were so far back and then there's a giant dancing uh a floor in the middle for them to dance on and
it was just terrible stuff and apparently everyone said they could not hear me at all which I didn't
know that was an issue the worst part about those gigs is like when people in the audience actually
think that there was a chance
that you could do well in that setting where they're like what happened and it's like this
was not set up for all the comments i've seen from this it's like they didn't it's like they
were hanging out and they look up and like is that brian bates they're talking that's what it
sounds like it's like they weren't even told hey there, there's a show starting. This video is from the stage? Yeah, I took that during soundcheck.
That's how far, oh my goodness.
Yeah.
I've done better.
And you could have taken the same video during the show.
Yeah.
I've done better bar shows than this.
I mean, that is unreal.
It is funny when you have to do a show and they're so far away from you.
Yeah.
That is always like kind of crazy.
This looks like a casino in sue st marie michigan
there's a dance floor in between you and the audience this could be one where you go up there
and you're like i'm gonna sit down so you like i'm not a pro sit down comic like unless you're
but like this one you could be like if you don't want to walk out to the thing you could be like
i'm gonna sit down because it's at least demanding something, I guess, I kind of feel like.
So you could maybe sit down and at least just be like,
just sit down and just talk.
Maybe just eat a meal.
Yeah.
And demand like from them.
Yeah, like you're sitting down on a stool, and I think that's like,
I don't know.
I'm just trying to throw out like an idea, like what you're just trying to eat.
How long were you up there?
20 minutes. That's a long 20 minutes.. How long were you up there? 20 minutes.
That's a long 20 minutes.
It was.
It was a very long 20 minutes.
You had done two hours worth of material in that 20 minutes.
I know.
And I said this last week.
I don't have many act outs, but when you do an act out or a voice or anything and nobody's listening, it's really awkward.
Ryan's on the floor for a minute.
Doing John Chris material.
Yeah.
Rolling around.
Just yelling.
Eh?
Before I do that, I considered joining Rocket Money.
That's how bad I needed to.
Oh, did you really?
Yeah.
Was that stressful?
I had to make some cuts.
Well, I say, listen, rising prices are stressing me out.
Yeah.
I mean, aren't they stressing everybody out?
If you're looking for ways to cut costs, I recommend Rocket Money.
You could be wasting money and not even realizing it.
I talk about it all the time.
I sign up for stuff and I forget.
And then, you know, you're not combing through your credit card statement every month.
Rocket Money.
Hey, I'm Jillian.
And I'm Patrick.

Stitch us on Apple Podcasts,
Spotify,
or wherever you listen.
A movie,
and just said,
all right,
let's wrap it up.
And you go,
what?
You're not,
the movie's like,
that level of,
Yeah, it's like like we're enjoying ourselves.
Yeah.
If you're not, you can get out.
All right, how long is this going to go?
Go home.
Yeah.
Like, what are you talking about?
Go home.
I need everything to be done.
Daryl, if Dusty lived in Australia,
he could not name his son Duke
as we are banned from naming our children after royal titles.
So no Duke, Duchess, Prince, Princess, Queen, or King.
However, I worked with a woman born in another country whose legal name is Queenie,
but who went by Queen for short.
And the name Kingsley is legal.
And you can drop the sleigh and call yourself king
why would you drop the sleigh though you know king sleigh um well yeah well that's why i that i like
duke right because it is like a royal kind of name and then his middle name is richard right
that's my middle name so do and then richard is also like a, you know, an old British King. So it's like Duke Richard.
I thought it would be great, but.
You could probably still switch it up.
He's not probably, is he coming to a name yet?
Well, not yet.
No.
That was a joke.
Like a dog.
Sam, come on in.
And he goes, right now he's still.
Yeah.
He's just not responding.
Yeah.
Take it to it.
So we could, we have some wiggle room here.
But we have like John Wayne was called the Duke and Dukes of Hazzard.
So Duke has taken on more a different tone now.
I like Sam a lot.
Yeah, I'm a big fan.
Yeah.
Well, this week we're talking about names, the history of names and how they originated.
And United States is one of the most lax as far as walls on names.
But even in the United States, there's some names you can't give your children.
And King and Queen are two of them.
Oh, really?
Oh, wow.
If you scroll down just a little bit, there's some legal baby names in the U.S.
Santa Claus.
Yep.
At.
The at sign.
Sorry, I didn't realize. Oh, sign sorry I didn't realize
I didn't
some bad words on this list too
but the United States
is one of the most lax
you can't name your son three?
you can't name your son
you can probably name it T-H-R-E-E
different states have different rules
most states you can't name your child a number
in Illinois you can name your child a number.
In Illinois, you can name your child seven.
Oh, Seinfeld?
I think so.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's fun.
Yeah.
I don't know if you can do it with a numeral, but you can write it out.
S-E-V-E-N.
So you can't name your kid, in some states, you can't name your kid Jesus Christ, but you can name your kid Jesus.
You just can't have Christ in there.
I guess so.
Oh, interesting.
Yeah.
Jesus Christ.
Yeah.
It's a big part of it.
Yeah, it is.
Jesus.
That last name.
Yeah, the last part's crucial.
What about Jesus Christopher?
I guess you could.
Christ for sure.
You could work around that.
You're throwing a lot on that kid.
Yes, yes, you are.
You know?
Yeah.
So different countries have different rules.
In Sweden, you can't call your child Metallica.
But –
I mean, there has to be these – like, where where they go there was enough people that they go all
right yeah i'll get into more into some of the some crazy rules so names originated according
to anthropologists this isn't the biblical account but according to anthropologists about
10 to 12 000 years ago there started being enough people in the world where farming started taking off and you had different people doing
different roles so you had to call them by something like if you're the picker you know
you had to give them a name and up up until then there was no social need for a name up until this
they're saying uh according to this yeah maybe you went what do you need a name you just go how
you doing hey that guy over there needs to like you'd be in a town
but there were never groups where you would need to differentiate people you mean like a last name
or a first first name oh see i would oh they have a last name first we'll get into that oh
you have to have a first name to have a last name but otherwise it's just the first name right but
i mean just of course. Okay.
Slay.
But you got to differentiate people from it.
Everybody can't be like, hey, dude, guy, buddy.
Man. That's what everybody does.
Partner.
Yeah.
But you would have names.
They had names like the kings and stuff.
They have names forever.
Yeah, but I mean, 10,000 to 12,000 years ago, that's a long time ago.
Yeah.
Yeah, there were no people back then.
There's obviously no names.
Yeah.
So in the United States, at one time, the majority of names were biblical
and has gradually decreased over time.
Now it's the lowest.
The only baby name now for a boy that's popular that's biblical is Noah.
Noah is one of the most popular baby names.
But, I mean, look at this table.
Half of us are biblical.
Nathaniel, that's biblical.
I don't know if you knew that.
And Aaron.
Aaron.
And Brian, right?
Is Brian a biblical name?
I don't know.
There's no Brian in the Bible, dude.
Can you imagine?
We wouldn't be where we're at if they,
if Jesus had to go,
what's your name?
Brian.
Can you imagine Jesus meeting Brian?
Is that one syllable or two?
Brian,
the apostle.
Brian?
Brian or Brian?
He goes,
Brian?
Your name's Brian?
Yeah,
from Lebanon.
Dude,
how would the book of Brian,
if it was in the Bible,
just to be a book maybe just about complaining
and just about how hot it is and just a Brian.
Yeah, that would be funny.
Yeah.
Probably wouldn't have made the final cut.
It'd be one of those hidden gospels.
Yeah, when was the first Brian?
Being there with Enoch.
Well, most names that-
It's like a stock name.
They're just like, you know.
Most names that we use now that came from Europe was during the Middle Ages.
Where'd your name come from?
Well, I was about to get there.
So let me just go over.
Nate is a biblical name.
Nathaniel is one of Jesus' 12 apostles.
They think he's the same person as Bartholomew, a name you can't even say.
Bartholomew.
I can't say it.
It means God has given or gift of God, which I feel bad because all these years when you were telling me how you were God's gift of comedy,
I didn't know you were saying that that was based on the Bible.
So I feel bad.
Church tradition says Nathaniel carried a translation of Matthew's gospel to northern
India, and he was crucified upside down in Albania.
So did not end well.
It's a tough end.
Upside down.
It's just a little extra.
Unfair.
It really hurts.
Yeah.
Aaron? You could have asked for it so it doesn't be like Jesus. Is that just a little extra. Unfair. It really hurts. Yeah. Aaron.
You could have asked for it so he doesn't be like Jesus.
Is that what a lot of them did?
That's what Peter did, right?
Peter did it, yeah.
Yeah.
Aaron was Moses' brother.
Do you know that?
I did know that.
Spoke for Moses.
Moses had a speech impediment.
Yeah.
Moses wasn't a good speaker, so he asked God to give him his brother Aaron to do the talking.
Mm-hmm.
So.
Makes sense.
It means exalted or strong.
Guy that talks for others.
That's what your name means?
Yeah.
It means exalted or strong.
It could also mean teacher or mountain of strength.
I'll talk to him.
There you go.
He goes, I'll talk to him.
I got it.
Yeah, he goes, they don't know the words.
You're going to bust your...
Wheelbarrow.
Wheelbarrow.
Barrow.
Yeah.
Can you pass me the wheelbarrow he goes i'm sorry and he got there people are like i don't even know what to give them they don't even know
barrow he goes these people he goes i'm moses brother because obviously he's over here moses
can't get it out you know he's he's like, he's just like.
No, no, no, no, no.
No, no, no, no.
And he goes, Moses.
And he goes, hey, how you doing?
Aaron.
Can we get a wheelbarrow?
I don't know how to even say it.
Burrow.
Barrow.
Barrow.
Dusty means brave warrior.
Wow.
I don't know.
First became popular in the 1970s.
Dusty Springfield, a a singer i had no name
i assumed that dusty had no had no meaning but uh i couldn't agree more yeah but it was a name for
girls dusty springfield was a woman and people started naming their daughters dusty in the 70s
adam levine named his daughter dusty in 2016 goes Yeah. Well, that's why you have the long hair.
Yeah.
And then Brian means Devinero charming.
No, it doesn't.
Does it really or no?
No.
No.
Devinero?
Let me guess what Brian means.
Does it mean Brian?
There's no meaning?
There's no meaning.
Where's the word Brian come from
it comes from Brian
it just says
you know him
when you see it
yeah
you just know
a Brian
it means
it's an Irish name
means high or noble
has two syllables
so answers that question
that's always been
confusing to me
we talked about it
on here
yeah I know
did
is it
is any name
mean anything bad
like everybody's name
is always like high and noble,
or it's all these things.
If it is, I think it's just because of a story like in the Bible,
like Pilate or...
Oh, yeah.
The surname Brian can also sometimes be a French surname,
which is derived from the old Akatan word meaning maggot.
Oh, no.
All right, Aaron.
That's not good.
That's not good.
No need to look that up.
There you go.
But don't worry.
It's only if it's spelled B-R-A-N.
Well, I was going to say,
it says there's more B-R-Y-A-Ns in the U.S.
than B-R-I-A-N.
Interesting.
There you go.
You got some stick out.
Yep.
Pilots, that's tough.
That's a good name.
That would have been a good name.
Yeah. I bet pilot would be popular. That would have been a good name. Yeah.
I bet Pilot would be popular.
You don't know about any Pilots.
I don't know a single one.
Yeah.
A human being named Pilot?
Mm-hmm.
No, I've never heard of that.
Yeah.
Didn't you say Pilot?
I did.
Yeah.
Pilot from the P-I-L-A-T-E.
Yeah.
Oh, Pontius.
Yeah.
But they usually call him Pilot.
You call him Pilot.
You're some first name basis.
I call him Pontius.
Yeah.
Ponti.
The P-man.
P-dog.
Yeah.
Pontius was like, that sounds like it's backwards.
Yeah.
Pilot, I guess that could be a good first name.
Pilot.
Yeah.
If you have a boy.
Pilot Bates.
Yeah.
Pilot Slay. Yeah yeah that would be good
any name with slay sounds good yeah i agree it does i agree so uh junior and senior there's a
etiquette to when you're supposed to use that or the second or the third things like that uh if if
your name is identical first middle last name then you're supposed to do junior oh
okay if it's a little different or if you're named after your grandfather or uncle then you're
supposed to do the second or the third if you're not the direct next one in line so you can skip
it and then pick it back up yeah if you were named after your grandfather you'd still be the second
but you're not and your dad correct your dad could be whatever yeah and then yeah oh well that feels
weird it does i like that if you did that i know but it feels like i mean you just took over the
like the the grandfather knew you skipped the dad but i don't know if this is true. So my brother's the fourth. My dad's the third.
But somebody said at one point, it's a function of who's living at the moment.
So if the first two die, then my brother's now the second and my dad's the first.
Really?
Yeah, legally.
My brother's a junior now, technically.
Yeah, I don't like that.
Is that true?
I don't like that because as you build it up,
it seems like now we've come from a long line,
but each time they die, we're like back to square one.
I've never heard that.
I don't like that.
Well, who knows?
Somebody said that to us once.
Well, Aaron and them throw tennis balls at each other,
so I take it all with a grain of salt.
Now, I don't know if it's legally.
Like Barack Obama's dad was Barack Hussein Obama.
So Barack Obama should have been junior, but instead he was the second.
Most people don't even know that, but he was Barack Hussein Obama II,
but he should have been junior.
And back when kids often died in birth,
a lot of parents renamed their second child the same name.
Run it back.
They did.
Salvador Dali had a brother who died named Salvador.
Beethoven had a brother, Ludwin van Gogh.
That's when you just love the name.
You're like, no, no, this name sticks.
At what point do you go, let's try a different name?
Maybe the third time?
Yeah.
Second time worked
really well for these.
Yeah, it worked.
I mean, it worked
unbelievable.
And George Foreman
just doesn't care.
He mixes it all up.
He has five sons
named George.
Wow.
George Jr.,
George VI.
Do you know that?
No.
That's crazy.
All his kids are named,
boys are named George.
How does he identify them?
Do you know?
Think about sounds.
He says it a little differently for each one.
No, he goes like, boop.
One comes to that.
The other one, grrr.
That's like the second one.
That's what he calls them.
Yeah.
I think he calls them like George Jr. is the first and the third.
I think he just does whatever.
Native Americans wait and see the first, then the third. I think he just does whatever. Native Americans
wait and see the child
and then something maybe that happened to them
is how they
earn their name. And their names change over time.
That's what I wanted to do.
Change it? I wanted to give it some time.
You could have. I did wait
a little bit. I waited until it was born.
So often
it's the first thing the mother sees waited until it was born. So often, it's the first thing
the mother sees
after the child's born.
That's how they have
their first name.
But then,
if they do something,
accomplish something in life,
it can change the name.
So,
the name Dancing Wind
sounds beautiful,
but that really means,
it's an image of a tornado,
means they're volatile
or have an angry disposition.
You don't mess with a dancing wind.
Yeah, and you think you'd be like, oh, I brought home a dancing –
imagine a girl's name.
I don't know.
But you go, me and my girlfriend dancing wind.
It's like, you better get up.
Yeah, yeah.
You go, just a guy, like a guy that's not Native American has no idea.
A Brian.
The red flags are in the name.
A Brian brings home –
A dancing wind. Her. A Dancing Wind.
Her name's Dancing Wind.
She's real fun.
And you're like, she's about to rip this house apart, dude.
The name bear is common in Native Americans like John is for us.
But if you're named Wounded Bear, that means you're suffering.
You've got something going on in your life.
You're wounded.
Yeah, but would they call you just bear?
Not necessarily physical. I think I don't have Wounded Bear or I can't think of another wounded. Yeah, but would they call you just bear? Not necessarily physical.
I think a lot of them had wounded bear,
or I can't think of another example.
Yeah.
I guess, I don't know if it was just bear.
Little bear.
It'd also be in a different language
that would sound better than,
like, wounded, wounded.
Wounded bear.
But their tradition is to inspire individuals
to strive to be better,
or to heal, or to evolve,
and then you earn a more prestigious name.
So then you change it to like, you know, Hill Bear.
Or Big Bear.
Big Bear, Mountain Bear.
Yeah.
Brave Bear.
Dancing Bear.
So like some of these names from these famous names, Sitting Bull actually means slow.
He was slow and he never made it past that?
I guess not.
That guy was like the real deal, right?
Well, he was famous for, I guess, a fight with American settlers.
Yeah.
The Battle of Little Bighorn.
Yeah, that was a big fight.
Standing Rock, that's where he died.
1890. Sitting Bull died at standing rock that's about that geronimo means the one who yawns i wonder if he was like
i wonder if he was like i don't like this they go where we fight and he goes standing rock he goes
what he goes my name is sitting bull why we go, just go to something else?
He goes, I don't like.
I go, what?
It's just where the fight's going to be.
Standing Rock.
He goes, I know, but it's like so close.
All right.
He goes, I'll get over.
I'll be over there in a couple of days.
Slow.
He goes, all right.
He's all, every time he talked to him, it's like he's getting up.
Yeah.
All right. I'll get to it.
I'm coming.
And then around the Middle Ages, this is when surnames became a thing.
Do you know what a surname is?
Your first name?
Last name.
Boom.
Very close.
Yeah.
There became so many people that they had to start giving you a second name
because there were too many Johns or whatever.
So last names are basically based off of four groups,
either your father, where you live, your occupation, or a nickname.
So I'll give an example of each.
Do you know some?
Your father, John's son.
That's a fair point.
Oh, Johnson.
You would be John's son or Robin's son or Richard's son.
Or in your case, you would be Nate Stevenson.
Oh, yeah.
So Anderson, we get it.
Mac, if the Mac's in front of it, like McDonald or McGregor.
Mac means son of.
Fitz means son of.
So Fitzgerald, Fitzsimmons. That means
you were the son of those people.
O means, like O'Neill, O'Brien
means grandson of.
And occasionally a woman. Madison means
Maddie's son.
Maddie's son, yeah.
But like
they do that to be like, we got to
meet Johns. Alright, John
Johnson. Let's's go what's next
you're john you're johnson too yeah john johnson yeah and then they just give everybody the exact
same names again yeah and eventually i mean because that would just keep your last name
would be changing every time eventually they're just like no we just got to come up with a name
last name and keep it for tax purposes and things like that. Imagine picking your own last name. Like when, you know, but it changes over time.
Like our names were spelled with a P at one point.
P-A-R-G.
Paragetzi?
Yeah.
Paragetzi, I think.
Z-I.
It's been spelled a few different ways.
Okay.
And you just stuck with this one.
I mean, that's the one we're at now. Could change. Could change. Harper could take it few different ways. Okay. And you just stuck with this one. I mean, that's the one we're at now.
Could change.
Could change.
Harper could take it a different direction.
She could do her own thing.
Well, I mean, if she gets married, then she won't have the name.
She'll keep it.
She'll keep her.
It'll be up to her.
I'm going to have her keep it.
By then, it might be doing that.
That'd be nice.
I mean, she changed my name to Bob Ripple Pants.
Location last names would be like Underwood, Hill,
or sometimes just the town.
Your last name's York, just where you live.
That sounds like a way to insult people.
That's Brian Underbridge over there.
Yeah.
You're like, oh, maybe that's that family.
Other side of the, Tim, other side of the track over there.
And you go, what?
That's a weird last name.
Occupation last names would be like Baker.
Smith.
Smith is the most.
It's got to be the biggest one, right?
Smith is the biggest one.
So if you're a.
Blacksmith.
Blacksmith, Ironsmith.
There's a lot of Smiths back then. Yeah. If any smith you know that's where that came from miller
farmer shepherd shoemaker wow oh that one's pretty on the nose huh yeah what do you do
it's in the name buddy yeah you're not you're not good enough to be a cobbler.
It's called a shoemaker.
I'm a maker of shoes.
He's a joke maker.
And then nicknames is a description of that person.
So Long, Short, Martin Short, Rich Little, Stern, if you're Stern, Howard Stern,
Doolittle, it's not a good one, but we know Doolittle.
Or if you're black, white, green, blue, those are some description of you.
Usually your hair color, not your skin color.
But obviously green or blue might be your eye color.
So if your last name's that, it's because somebody in your ancestors,
there were two Johns, and one of them was John Black,
and one of them was John White.
You think red would be a more common name then?
Yeah, I don't know.
Is there a Blue?
Is the last name Blue?
My cousin.
I got a cousin that named it.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, married a guy last name Blue.
Vida Blue was a baseball player.
Rest in peace.
There's Green.
Green's a common name.
Yeah.
Seth Green. Mo Green. And then let's see a mean joe green
yeah there is there a red or no well no one had probably no one had an eye color red but yeah
what had hair color red right yeah maroon i know some reds but it's with two d's oh yeah
yeah sure that's red huh yeah uh gold too is that probably where gold comes from
golden i guess so maybe the hair color or maybe yeah yeah healthy uh well and then orange
no it wasn't until recently that orange and red were different colors
i think i think did we talk about this on the podcast once
i don't remember this this is why because i wondered why people with orange hair were called
redheads so it wasn't until recently that we had different terms for red and orange they were just
kind of all lumped into one color okay And then the fruit was actually named first, orange.
And then they started calling that color orange.
Wow.
But it was all lumped into red.
So we were already down the name path probably before orange.
Yeah, yeah.
Really came around.
Purple.
Now there are some-
Violet.
There are some biblical characters that That meet all these descriptions
At least in the New Testament
Jesus was often called Jesus of Nazareth
Because Jesus was a very common name
In his time
Yeshua right? Joshua
Wasn't that his name? Yeshua
Mary Magdalene
There's a ton of Marys in the Bible
Mary Magdalene that's where she lived
Judas Iscariot, he lived there.
Then there was Simon the leper and Simon the tanner.
One's a job, one's a condition.
That's a bad name to stick with, Simon the leper.
You get over leprosy, like you get cured.
You're still just called the leper.
Yeah, he's in the Bible forever.
Jesus went to his house and hung out with Simon the leper.
John the Baptist, he baptized people.
So that's a way to distinguish the difference.
Let's go Brian Authoritis.
Brian the Authoriter.
Yeah.
The drugstore called Nate.
Yeah, and they're running out of you.
Yeah.
So I looked at our names.
I would have made fun of myself there,
but I actually have a joke.
So I had to switch it over to you.
That's the reason for the 154 episodes?
Well, that specific one was,
I have a new idea.
You have a bit in your act about it, yeah.
Yeah, but it's not,
it wouldn't have been,
it's not that.
It's somewhat,
and I just couldn't make it about me
because I've got to protect the act.
So I took care of it, you know, went closest.
So I looked at our names and kind of where they originated from,
although you've already shot yours down if it was originally a P.
No, I don't know.
I mean, they're all variations because most names you think of,
you couldn't see how they would fit any of those characters.
And Bates,
I still don't really know.
But a weaver is another popular last name based on occupation.
If you were a weaver back at the time,
but in German,
they called it Weber.
Right.
And we talked about this a few episodes ago,
how it changed,
but your ancestors were probably weavers of basket weavers yeah yeah
making a few wheelbarrows maybe oh that's why maybe you say it yeah yeah because you would
you have to the family trade yeah and it had basket yeah type wheelbarrows yeah i mean you
saw that basket with the tennis balls yes very good basket weird that's what we do this is what
you like weaving it's what the weavers do yeah that's cool we put baskets together and then slay was an implement used
in weaving to push the thread through so your ancestors probably worked with used to work
work for yeah i don't know we'll see yeah we You know. Also, slay means to kill.
So we probably got frustrated
with the weavers
once in a while.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well,
that's why you split up.
Yeah.
The one tennis balls at you.
You went down the,
you know,
if you look at where
you're both at now,
it's like perfect sense
where it goes.
Your family went down
to questioning a lot of things.
Yeah.
Not trusting the kingdom
that you were under.
Yeah.
And then your family bought into it, and it's the end of Notre Dame.
Yeah.
Big business.
You're both.
It makes complete sense.
Yeah.
That when you look now to go, yeah, you're barely hanging on and obviously thriving.
Yeah.
You know, that's how I would say it.
You have copper under the ground yeah uh obviously
yeah the he flew a helicopter today the uh the old spellings that i've seen as they go back
into england they would spell it s-l-e-i-g-h yeah as you go back like a sleigh like uh yeah like
santa claus yeah and you couldn't name your kid Santa Claus. It's illegal.
And maybe the sleigh was made out of basket weaving material.
I wonder.
So you sleigh, because maybe you do come from money.
And then somewhere along the line, it went another route.
Yeah, I mean.
And then once y'all ended up.
Maybe the Webbers and the sleighs were partners.
There's a chance.
Yeah.
And yours was spelled S-L-E-I-G-H, like a sleigh, which I would be like, wow, that's something that's fancy.
Yeah.
So the sleigh family goes.
Something goes wrong, probably with the Weaver family, the Weber family.
Probably like something happens.
Probably shorted us some money here.
Yeah.
Slays go down a path, end up kind of trailers.
And they go.
That makes sense.
Then when you're in the trailer you go well we
can't be you look ridiculous to be like you know the president's probably named slay with e-i-g-a
and you're like we gotta we look stupid so they go let's just say a-y yeah and then the band slayer
was out so you saw that i imagine this is around that times. Yeah. And then you go A-Y and then here we are.
But now,
we're on the grind.
We are,
the slave family is.
Right.
You're heading back up.
You're still writing
your family story.
No, it's going back up,
but you're not going
to know about it.
It's going to be off the grid.
That's where they made
the mistake
was they got,
you know,
you let the.
We pulled into the mainstream.
Well, until you posted
your address
for all the world to see.
Well, that's just a,
you know, that's the. That's world yeah well that's just a you know
that's that's the that's a little that's a hiccup yeah yeah that's not the real address that's yeah
that's where we spend some time oh yeah yeah yeah yeah they don't know we don't live they don't yeah
spend some time yeah i like it building back up and then bargazzi is a location name meaning by
the town gate or the keeper of the bar gate i did know that the gate
keeper yeah the gate am i the gatekeeper yeah or i'm not sure what a bar gate is but maybe they
had a gate to go to the bar and bouncer you keep it yeah you're a bouncer yeah i stand there and
they go you're not allowed in i like that like a defensive man like a defensive man yeah i am
yeah yeah so i was a defensive man yeah i should defensive man. Yeah. I am. Yeah. Yeah. So I was a defensive man.
Yeah.
This trophy should be named after me.
Yeah.
You're like, in fact, my family is known for defending things.
That's one of our main things was just going, you're not allowed in the town.
Yeah.
Who's the bar gate?
There's a guy.
What was it?
The bar gate and the-
Keeper of the gate.
Keeper of the gate.
Yeah.
Keeper of the bar gate.
Or someone who lived by the town gate.
Yeah.
I was just right there by the town gate.
He could have just been a poor beggar.
Just a homeless guy outside of a bar.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I might have, yeah.
Yeah, I'd imagine the nice houses weren't by the gate of the town.
I think about Frank Costanza when he went to Tuscany.
Yeah.
He was a eccentric fellow.
Yeah.
Some people call him the village idiot.
Yeah.
And you're like, I still think we're related.y. Yeah. He was a eccentric fellow. Yeah. Some people call him the village idiot. Yeah. And you're like, I still think we're related.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, every doorbell, knock on the gate, my family's got to get up.
Hello.
And we got to meet them.
Yeah.
Well, what about Bates?
Bates was the hardest one to find really any origination from.
Bates was the hardest one to find really any origination from.
One thing I read said it originated from the name Bartholomew.
So, same as yours.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But I really couldn't find much.
My name was just boring top to bottom. Now, do you know anything about your family history going back a long time?
I mean, I know Bates originated from ireland scotland okay but beyond that did anyone in your family have an identity with like being
irish or scottish no you didn't care about it at all nate's joke that my family's lived in lebanon
since the beginning yeah before lebanon was made dude he was born wherever wherever his family
started was lebanon i did ancestry.comcom. It just stayed in Lebanon the whole time.
It never goes off.
Every now and again, it gets on the one side of 109.
Then it goes right back to the other side.
West Wilson County for supplies.
They go, oh, we got a little movement here.
We're near the Davidson County border.
I popped up in Dixon for a couple days.
He goes, what happened here?
Even I started in Donaldson and just kind of worked my way west.
Did my toe in Davidson County.
Yeah.
So in Iceland, they don't really have traditional last names.
If you have a boy, it's going to be your dad's first name with son on the end.
If it's a girl, it's going to be your dad's first name with daughter on the end.
D-O-T-T-I-R.
So everyone's last name ends in son or daughter.
Oh, Juergen's son.
Yeah.
Wow.
Juergen Daughter.
Yeah.
What are some examples of those names, though,
with a daughter name?
We're all familiar with son.
Bill Tom Daughter.
Well, like the example uh they gave this guy's name's eagle that's his and he named his daughter helga so her name's helga eagle doctor
helga eagle doctor that's just an example they got a good that's what's a famous that's fun
isn't there a famous singer from Iceland? Bjork?
Yeah.
Bjork Bjork. See what her real last name is.
Oh, it's a girl?
I think it's, yeah.
Oh.
Looks like a girl.
Oh, yeah.
There it is.
Oh, yeah.
Gwonson daughter.
Oh, geez.
Yeah.
Well, okay.
We lost it.
Well, it was like, yeah, Bjork.
Bjork.
Yeah, yeah.
Wompson.
Is that where you go read the name there?
You don't look at the very top?
We look at just the breakdown on the right.
Okay, but when you go to Wikipedia,
we're reading the name in bold at the top.
I think I kind of lost it in the shuffle.
There's a lot going on in that first sentence.
But it's dark.
It's very dark.
It's bolded.
Yeah, it's bolded.
Yeah, it's dark. I thought we it's bolded yeah it's bolded yeah so i thought we were looking there you could go to that my instinct is to just let's cut to the chase let's hop over to
the right that's got a breakdown of all the important information it's got a date of birth
just doing her name yeah but i thought we might we're gonna riff on it a little bit right i think
we might we might but i think I think we said the name.
I mean, this first sentence on here,
this looks like how normal sentences look to you, I think.
Just a mess.
Different symbols.
They do.
BJ three.
And you're like, well, what's that?
What, you threw a number in there?
There is a three in there. There is. Why would you put a number in there? There is a three in there.
There is.
Why would you put a three in?
But her last name is Guamond Sedotra.
That's pretty cool.
I didn't know that.
So they already know who her dad is.
Guamond.
Yeah.
And she's, yeah, spouse is Eldon
But then also
She was with Matthew Barney
For a while
And so
That's tough
It's like, oh, this is my
Wife Bjork
And his dad is Gunner
Yeah, Gunner
Yeah, dad's name is Gwamondor Gunnarson But his name is Gunnar. Yeah. Gunnar Besson. Yeah, dad's name is Guamondur Gunnarsson.
Gunnarsson.
But his name is Gunnar.
Gunnar Dortur.
He was a leader of the Icelandic Electricians Union.
All right.
Oh, wow.
Her grandfather's name is Gunnar.
Right.
Yeah.
We can just keep going.
You can just go all the way back.
Yeah, that's fun.
Yeah, so in Iceland, they have a naming committee.
You can't just name your child whatever.
You've got to go through this naming committee so uh a lot of stuff to keep track of man look at this word look at that what is going on with that dude shuffston d cook corcoran it's the weird ae
letter they just start mushing letters together because the words are too long oh with a cross on it at the time i've never seen that in my life they go push these a's and e's in
yeah this word's getting a little long s j a l f but it's not just an a it's an a with an accent on
it oh uh a u uh s j a o what happens when you click on that? A-F.
I'm scared to.
Yeah.
Probably a virus.
Oh, it's an independent party.
It's the independence party in Iceland.
And they're like, why are we not taking off?
You're like, I got an idea.
Maybe because we got a niner in there.
That name is wild.
Crazy language.
In Iceland, you can't name your child something with the letter C
because there is no C in their alphabet.
Oh.
That's why they have to spell these words so crazily
because they're trying to get around not using a C.
Even though they're called Iceland, but they spell it like we do island.
Oh, they put an S in there.
Yes. Do you just go
just put the C?
You know what we're doing.
I guess it's their thing.
There's not a lot of ice there either, is there?
No, it's beautiful.
Yeah, it was like Greenland is like a lot of ice.
I always heard that.
I just heard that.
That could not be true.
I've been to Greenland. So they have the-
I've been to Greenland.
There was a lot.
It was dark the whole time.
Yeah?
Not a lot of green.
It was all ice, but it was completely dark because it was the whole time I was there, 24 hours.
Wow.
Couldn't see anything.
You walked around, you had to watch out for polar bears because they're, to walk around at night.
Wow.
Mm-hmm.
Did you do shows there?
Mm-hmm.
How'd they go? It was good good it was like a base up there
and then uh it's a very important base like they're they're your first line of defense
of like if there's a nuclear attack or something like that like the first thing that right from
russia because it's kind of between us and Russia, right? You know, it is where it is.
But if you look at it right here, here's Russia.
Yeah.
Here's the United States.
Yeah.
It's kind of between Canada and Russia here.
Yeah.
At the Arctic.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Cool.
And it's...
It's all daylight there right now.
There's a thing.
So my joke to them, I was like, you're like putting a green,
and I'm like, well, losers, they got up here.
And you're like, that's the most important people.
And you're like, oh, okay, sorry.
And that was fun.
So, yeah, so they have a naming committee in Iceland.
They have basically three rules.
The name cannot cause harm or any trouble or harm to the child.
An example is if you want to name your kid Satan, you can't do it.
That's a good call.
I feel like what if your name rhymes with something, you know,
that you can get bullied with.
You should include that as well.
I mean, if it's going to cause harm to the kid, where do you draw the line?
I think Satan's a good place.
Yeah. Well, yeah, I'm not saying I object to that. I'm not harm to the kid? Where do you draw the line? I think Satan's a good place. Yeah.
Well, yeah, I'm not saying I object to that.
That's a good line to draw.
Yeah.
I'm okay with that.
Second rule is boys must be named boy names
and girls must be named girl names.
You've got to be able to tell the gender by its name.
If they want to name their daughter Alex,
you can't do it.
Or Taylor.
In Iceland.
In Iceland.
Or Jesse.
Or any of those.
Wow.
I guess so.
And then the third one I already mentioned,
the name must follow Icelandic grammar rules and alliteration.
So if you want to name your daughter Camilla,
you'd have to do it with a K because there is no C in there.
This is making a lot of sense.
You're on board with it, aren't you?
Yeah, I mean, it makes a lot of sense.
Like, let's keep it clear.
Yeah.
Clear with a K.
And you have six months to name your child there.
After that, you're fined for not registering a name.
Because it's a big process.
You've got to go through this naming committee,
and they have to approve it.
In Norway and Denmark,
you're required to pick from an approved list of names.
Failure to get prior approval for unlisted name results in fines and the
child's name will be forcibly changed later.
This is the kind of fun stuff that you can do when there's 500 people in your
country.
You know what I mean?
When you don't have a real country,
you can do fun stuff like this.
Yikes. Wow. I'm just trying to spice it up yeah yeah it's a conversation role yeah i'm just saying you can't implement something like this in the united states how
many people live in iceland oh man 30 40 less than a million it would be tough to do that's
for sure in america to be like i mean we got a lot of names here we
got some wild names iceland population is 370 000 i mean it's less than nashville so yeah you can
have a fun naming committee you do stuff like that i'm not saying it's wrong no it's good you
can't scale i like that they're doing it yeah you. Especially, I like if you're that small of a place that you're keeping that kind of like
identity of your own.
Yeah, you need to.
I like that.
You'll get swept up and forgotten.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
France, the same thing.
France, it's got to be a boy's name, girl's name.
It's got to be clear.
A woman, try to name her daughter Liam.
Liam?
Mm-hmm.
Oh, daughter.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
her daughter, Liam.
Liam?
Mm-hmm.
Oh, daughter.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
In Portugal, you can't name your child Tomas or anything like that.
It's got to be because you can't shorten it.
Or you can name your child Tomas, but you can't call him Tom.
You've got to go by the name. Oh, okay.
So you'd have to be Nathaniel.
They've banned shortening versions of names.
But you can still call him Tom.
Yeah, I guess you just can't.
But like we were talking about Hank and Henry.
You have to name your kid Henry and not Hank.
Oh, yeah.
Even though it's not that much shorter.
Yeah.
Not really the same name either.
No, it's one of those weird ones, yeah.
Yeah.
Bob and Robert, that always got to me.
Yeah.
Where's the B come from?
Right.
From Robert. Yeah, but Robert starts with always got to me. Yeah. Where's the B come from? Right. From Robert.
Yeah, but Robert starts with an R, dude.
But there's a B in there.
Don't challenge me on this.
There is another B, but there's two Bs in Bob.
They had to go get it.
Yeah, they had to get it from somewhere else.
They barred it.
Yeah, like Bob is short for Bobby.
Bob is short for Robert.
But it shouldn't be, though.
That's what I'm saying.
It's short for Bob.
Oh, okay.
Bert is short for Robert. Yeah. Or't be, though. That's what I'm saying. It's short for Bob. Oh, okay. Bert is short for Robert.
Yeah.
Or Albert.
Or Rob.
Oh, yeah.
I wonder if that got confused.
Bert Kreischer's name is Albert.
Oh, yeah.
I read somewhere.
That's a different person, though, man.
Robert and Albert are two different people.
Albert Kreischer wears a shirt.
Bert's different.
Well, I know, but like.ischer wears a shirt. And a Bert. A Bert's different from all of them. Well, I know, but like...
He wears two shirts.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Ripley's Believe It or Not said the first last name ever was Katz, like Louis Katz.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
K-A-T-Z?
Yeah.
I guess that's a rabbi's name or something like that in Jewish custom.
So they say that was the first surname ever.
In the United States, you don't have to name your child right away.
You got to have it on birth certificate.
But if you don't know when you're leaving the hospital,
they'll just write baby boy or baby girl.
And it says a lot of hospitals will threaten you by saying,
you've got to have this before you can leave the hospital.
But that's not true.
And some parents wait a while to even name their child i don't know if you guys familiar with the olympic skier peekaboo street no one they took some time on that one
that seems like they had a gun to their head
well i remember she was an olympic skier back in, what, 98 Olympics.
Yeah.
And she was originally named Baby Girl.
And then about when she was six months old, she liked to play peekaboo.
That's obvious.
But they also went to a Mexico vacation, and the place was called Peekaboo.
So they named her Peekaboo Street.
All right.
Peekaboo. Good thing they peekaboo street all right peekaboo good thing
they took time with that one yeah yeah maybe that that's like almost uh the the lesson is don't
you don't actually don't take too much don't overthink it yeah yeah but you know it's a
different name many spanish-speaking countries have two last names.
How about if you name that Peekaboo?
Look at where she ended up.
I wonder if that stuff does make...
You're just different.
You're just...
Because your name's different, so you got to come at everything with a little more...
It's like...
My name's Peekaboo.
Oh, is it?
You're just going to...
It's like Boy Named Sue.
It's the whole premise of that song.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
You know that song? the Johnny Cash song?
Yeah.
I don't know the words on it.
He's named Sue and he's a boy.
He's mad his whole life.
And then at the end, he finally, he's trying to find his father who named him this to get
back at him.
And then he meets his father and his father says, I gave you this name so that you would
grow up to be tough because you'd have to fight and defend yourself all the time.
Because I'm going to abandon you. Yeah. Yeah. I'll be gone.
So he's like, thanks. Well, at the end, he said, if I ever have a boy,
I'm going to name him Frank or George, anything but Sue.
Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Spanish countries often have two surnames,
your father's last name and then your mother's last name.
And then when you get married, you keep your, if it's a woman, you keep your father's surname and then your husband's last name, like Angela Johnson Reyes.
Yeah.
Oh.
Okay.
I didn't know that.
Yeah.
Well, that's why we're here and for you to learn something a lot man
yeah i didn't know this in greece um if a man like yannis do you have two daughters yeah so
depending on if it's a male or female different last names so it'd be papas would be his child's
name if it was a boy but if it was a girl it would be papa lou Where's the Lou come from?
Just, I don't know.
You know how like Spanish L or law, depending on masculine or feminine?
Well, they have kind of similar,
they changed the ending of the name based on masculine or feminine.
Oh, interesting.
All right.
Yeah, I'm starting to check out a little bit.
I just think the audience might be.
Okay.
It's not your fault.
Thank you.
That last one,
I was like kind of.
I thought you might be interested
because you have a friend
whose daughter.
I did.
I think I've just hit a time limit
where I'm zoned out.
All right.
No, but I'm back in now.
All right.
So the most common last name
in the world,
anybody know?
Simpson.
Simpson?
Mohammed.
Ben Bazir.
Oh, I want to say It's Mohammed
Mohammed's most common
First name
Last name
Patel
Is it Patel
Let's go Patel
It's a good guess
It must be a Chinese name
Park
Lee
Like L-I
That's good
Good guess
Wang
Wow
I think all of y'all
just got canceled
where's Patel
the way y'all all
were going at everything
it was
none of that was good
and then the
the real answer
was not good
coming out of that accent
coming out of 11
no it's Wang
there's a lot of Wangs
out there boys
I better zone out
because next week
I'll be alone
I guess when the Chinese dynasty fell I'll be alone. I guess when the
Chinese dynasty fell,
I say I guess, like I just, this is what I
said, and I read this, in 206 B.C.,
many families adopted the last name
Wang to hide their
true identities to avoid being assassinated
by the rulers of China.
So, that's why there's...
Patel must rank very high. Patel's got
to be up there. I'm sure it's up there,
but yeah, I don't have it.
Devonshi Patel.
The most common...
She's a comic we started together.
She's a writer now.
Oh, okay.
The most common first name in the world is Maria.
I believe that.
Mary Maria.
Most common first name in America.
James.
Yes.
Oh, really?
Is it James?
Yeah.
Wow.
Jim.
I would think John. James. Yes. Oh, really? Is it James? Yeah. Jim. I would think John.
John was third.
Second, Bill.
William.
Robert.
Robert.
Oh.
Snuck in there.
Robert Sun County.
Yep, that's right.
Good job.
David Sun.
He's back, baby.
David Sun. He's back, baby Davidson, he's back, baby
Let's do another hour
So there's two Major League Baseball teams
That allow names on the back of their jerseys
As of 2023
I think this changes
There's only two?
That don't allow?
No, no, no, I'm sorry
Maybe not allow
That do not allow
Yeah
I'm sorry
Red Sox and Yankees.
Correct.
Yeah.
There's three college football teams.
Notre Dame's one of them.
The Navy.
I don't think so.
Okay.
I can't think of the others.
I think it changes some.
Penn State and USC.
Oh, I can see that.
But Notre Dame allows.
For the bowl games.
For the goal games.
They put the names on.
Yeah.
So, that's who you guys are for.
For Nate and I, we have our own problems.
During Derrick Mason's very first football game as coach at Vanderbilt,
they played Temple on ESPN,
and they put the name Acre down on the back of their jersey.
It didn't get NCAA approval,
so they got penalized one time out per quarter
because it was a jersey that wasn't official.
Do you remember this?
And then we got beat 37-7.
Yeah, we got trapped.
It was not a –
Well, Temple was good that year, right, weren't they?
No.
I'm just trying to cut it off.
Temple was better than they were, but it just started off.
It just was not a good start.
And then it was like Mason had trouble, obviously, from that get-go.
I mean, we just get blown up.
We're like, all right, we're going to start with a win.
We love it.
And then just – and not even barely lose, just get – it wasn't a game.
Yeah.
I might have been at that game.
I don't know.
I remember watching it.
I was at it.
Yeah.
Yeah, I think you were
still in New York
at the time, right?
Yeah.
Maybe.
Because there was
a long weather delay.
Yeah.
It was a terrible,
terrible start.
But in fairness to Vanderbilt,
they did provide an email
that showed the NCAA
approved it.
So I think they got
their timeouts back.
After the game.
After the game was over.
Oh, that's helpful.
Yeah.
They go,
the next game, they go, y'all can use whatever time you want.
We get two extra demo?
They go, yeah, yeah.
The most famous name on an XFL jersey?
He Hate Me.
He Hate Me.
She Hate Me.
I went to Western Kentucky with him.
He Hate Me.
I thought it was She Hate Me.
No.
No, it's He Hate Me.
He Hate Me.
Have I talked about him before?
Who hates him?
You have.
Yeah.
He meant the team he's playing.
Their opponents are going to hate him because he's going to dominate.
Okay.
Played at Western Kentucky.
By semester, I was there.
He went by that then?
No, he went by his real name.
Oh, okay.
He was a big star football player.
Real name, she hate me.
That's where you got that from.
It's pretty good.
Everybody still knows it.
I mean, it's probably, it goes XFL and then He Hate Me
are literally probably the two things.
I mean, they rock now.
Yeah.
But it's like, that's how.
It was like the first game.
It was televised.
Everybody was curious to see what would happen.
And he's out there.
And then after that, ratings dropped.
And it was gone soon.
And then I'll end on, there was a Harvard study about names and do they matter.
And depending on your profession, depending on your name, supposedly your profession will change.
If you have certain common names, you'll be more likely to be a doctor, or if it's an unusual name,
you'll be more likely to be a garbage man. And if we share the initial with the name of a hurricane,
we'll be more likely to donate to the relief fund.
It's called implicit egotism effect.
We're generally drawn to the things that people that most resemble us because we have value, our own names and initials.
We prefer things that have something in common with us.
I really dodged a bullet, huh?
Dusty.
But my initials are DRS.
It seems very doctor oriented yeah yeah no one's gonna let a doctor
a dusty cut him that's true that is true you would i would have to be dr dusty dustin you
have to be dustin and dr slay doesn't sound too good it's not good no yeah who's my guy
dusty slay dr slay butcher maybe yeah yeah you, well, I'd like him to bring his license in.
Yeah.
His doctor license.
His doctor got paperwork.
You would have to show all your stuff.
I'd have to roll around with the credentials.
Yeah.
Just have them.
Here they are.
Here's my medical degree.
Yeah.
You'd spend most of your life proving who you are.
