Generous
Generous 58 you're her
Tj's her right now fucking love it. I got you some shit.
Yeah.
Oh.
What's that?
Something came in the mail.
I think it's like remnants of a sex swing.
Wait, it was addressed to you?
Yes.
It was just that or that's one part of it?
Bring the more in.
Bring the more in.
Okay.
I gotta do something while I bring it in.
I wanna start with something. I actually just did it on PMT as well, but I got to do it because I just got ripped the band-aid off
so I don't know why I've
Been ashamed of this for a long time, but I have and it's stupid and I need to just fucking say why am I ashamed?
This this is dumb. I think a lot of people know probably the whole chat because they're spamming it
Originally from Newton mass. Yeah, I was born there. I know I've said it on other shows
But here's the thing that I I shouldn't I shouldn't be ashamed of something like this
But I have been and it's stupid and I need to just fucking say it all so that I like it doesn't it
Used to bother me. I got to get to a point where it doesn't bother me anymore
KB's putting on a random thing. That looks like Japanese armor.
So here's the story, long and short.
So born there, lived there till I was 18, moved when I was 18 in 2003 to obviously went to
school at Wisconsin.
Haven't lived there since, went back I think my freshman, sophomore summer, but after that
stayed in Madison.
Moved to Chicago right after college in 2007.
So my background is this, I do have some family from here that I would come visit once a year.
Love the city of Chicago.
Rooted for Boston teams and Chicago was kind of my second
team's. Michael Jordan was my favorite player growing up. My
uncle, I think it's he's passed in 2019. I so I never got to
ask him, but I'm pretty sure he was lying to me, but he told me
when I was a kid that he was friends with Phil Jackson and I
was like, that's the fucking cool. It's probably never. It's
true. We're going to keep believing that. Also, I looked, I
was just going like thinking about everything and what to say last night. And I looked at
my last text to my uncle from 2019 and I texted him. I was like, this was like a week before
he passed away. And I texted him, it was September 2019. And the text was like, I'm starting
to think Mitch is not the guy. Yeah. And so that's that was like shit. That was our last communication. But
anyway so yeah I wasn't I wouldn't say I was a die-hard but I rooted for the
Patriots. I didn't really root hockey much. You know growing up I rooted for
the Braves a little bit, the Cubs a little bit, because the WGN also was on the Cubs in Little League,
the Red Sox, all that stuff.
When I moved here, I still was kind of rooting,
but I lost my connection to Massachusetts,
and I slowly started being like,
hey, these are the Chicago teams or teams that
I had a connection to with my uncle,
and they always were kind of my second teams, and I made them my first teams.
And so how this all kind of came about was when I first got hired,
I was working, I was blogging, I was blogging Chicago Sports for, I think, two years before I got hired.
The guy before me, Neil, he wasn't from Chicago.
The comment section ripped him apart, killed him.
Moe, who is a Philly guy way back in the day,
he was living in Brooklyn.
Comment section would kill him, rip him apart.
So I told Dave, I was like, should I say something?
Should I just say it?
And he's like, no, just leave it.
Just go about your job and do your job.
That was a mistake.
I should have just fucking said it right away.
I should have just said it.
Because years and years go by,
and I think in my head, I'm like,
people are gonna not like me, people are gonna hate me,
people are gonna stop listening to me.
That's the dumbest thing ever.
I don't know why I thought that.
I don't know why I had that in my head.
But it definitely bothered
me and I need to just say it so it doesn't bother me anymore. Like it's that simple.
Like I said on PMT an hour ago and I already felt better. Like good. It's it is what it
is. So anyone would give a shit. I think some people will be like, oh, you're a fraud. Like
you're not faking being a bear. No, I mean, I've
been a bears fan for, I mean, like I said, they were always my second team. So I'm not
going to say they were my first team growing up, but they were, you know, I've been, they
have been my only team for whatever. I've been doing this for 13, 14 years. Um, I bad
switch by me by the way. Yeah. Terrible Terrible, terrible switch. Wait, you switched back.
Well, I grew up, they didn't win.
None of the sports teams in Boston won anything.
Like, the Patriots won in 2001.
I was in high school for that.
But then I moved.
I moved in 2003, and I kind of lost a connection to the city.
And I love the city of Chicago.
That's why I wanted to move back here.
That's why I wanted to raise my kids here
This is home to me, and I know there'll be people who are like fuck you you're a fraud. That's fine
I I'll deal with it because now it's out there
Yeah, no, I know you guys do but like I'm not for the fans like I'll go loves you back
Yeah, but it's just like yeah, no, it's for the city of Chicago. I was wanted to rep a life long Chicago
Yeah, I was wanted to rep the city. I Chicago. Yeah, I was wanted to rep the city
I shouldn't have I shouldn't have been ashamed. I shouldn't hit it. I should have been honest. Yeah, really stupid of me
Starting off like it's unsure if this is gonna be your career or not
so I didn't kind of snowballed and it's just like then I got 14 years down the line and I'm just like fuck and
And it's just like, then I got 14 years down the line and I'm just like, fuck. And so, you know, it is what it is.
And if you don't like me from this or you think I'm fraud, I understand.
I think there's going to be a lot of people, I know there's a lot of people on my back
just obviously in this office, but online as well.
And I appreciate all those people.
And I know that like, so many people listen to the Yaks, so many people listen to Pardon
My Take, and the fan base is huge,
and like all these people have my back,
and I appreciate that,
and I'm gonna just keep trying to be funny
and make good content.
Also, one thing that I see all the time,
which is very funny to me,
so I was in a couple plays in high school,
and that somehow has turned into
I never played sports ever
I played sports growing up
12 years old I think maybe 13 years old my travel basketball team, which is basically a you I
Ripped every tendon and ligament in my ankle.
So fucked it up so bad.
Like a break would have been better.
Was out of sports for, it was like six months.
I was in a cast.
I was in rehab, all that shit.
And I kind of was never, I kind of fell out of love
with playing them.
And then I also was just not as good,
because I would just turn my ankle every time
I step off a curb and shit. Yeah
Probably should have done more physical therapy didn't
So yeah, I was in a couple plays because I wanted to try to get laid didn't work
But tell me Dan it's Dan, right? Yeah
You weren't the lead were you?
Which tell me it ain't one of them? Oh
Before we move on on which plays because this matter that does matter. Are you a greaser or were you like? Oh, I was telling me
And of all the kids the last day
I was in lane is I was in like a
Joseph in the Technicolor dream come up. He's called coastal disturbance, which was the fuck? Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat. Oh, that would be sick. I think it was called Coastal Disturbance,
which was like not, it was like an off-broadway.
That sounds sick.
That could be cool.
I was trying to fuck the other.
But what's the end goal aha moment
you were in a play as a youth?
I don't know, people just run with it,
which like I understand, people are gonna run with it
and it's totally fair for people to come at me,
but I just wanted to say that like,
my biggest regret in my sports career,
my illustrious sports career was when I was 11 years old, my baseball team was in the
city series and I was the number three pitcher on my team. And it was like the third game
of the tournament. So we'd already use our first and second pitcher. Remember when you're
in Little League you you had like a innings limit. Yeah. Our pitch count.
So our first pitcher had a three innings limit. Yeah. I had all my innings. They started me.
I went three innings, one hit shutout. Oh, they put in the first pitcher. They pulled
me because they're like, well, the first pitchers better. We lost the game in extra innings because then in seventh inning, our first
pitcher couldn't pitch anymore. They couldn't bring me back in. No way. I'll always wait.
That sounded like you were setting up to be a failure on your part, but that was a failure
on coaches. I should have demanded the ball. Yeah. I should have fucked that. I it's my
ball. Look at how I'm throwing. It's my fucking ball. That's how you became the lead at Les Mis. Yeah That was a
Remember the fucking no, I was it was our ceiling is
Did throw shot put for a little bit that was fun
That's I remember the fucking I went up for a layup and just my entire ankle exploded
There's no way you were good at acting right? No. Yeah
I'm the one Hank asked me to do a commercial or something. I'm fucking
Terrible at it huh, but it's not really acting so all actor like all people that are like into drama or either gay
Or get the most pussy. Yeah, well I was trying to like more got there's more got hurt in sport
Yeah, there's like no one beats, but when people
Like you think of the famous actors yeah, like that's awesome. Yeah lifestyle. That's no one's like no one beats, but when people like, as you think of the famous actors, like that's awesome.
The one in lifestyle, that's, no one's like,
oh, what a loser that guy is.
Yeah.
So yeah, I mean, that's the whole story.
Again, I did root for Boston teams.
Yeah.
Kind of slowly fell out of love.
I mean, I loved Tom Brady.
And then yeah, like way around probably 09-ish,
I was just like, I'm gonna make my life in Chicago.
Like if Barcell had never come around,
I would still be, I would have never moved to New York.
I would have stayed in Chicago.
That was always the plan.
And then, yeah, so again, a bad trade.
Bears are never gonna win anything.
I'm gonna ride and die with them,
but they're never gonna win anything.
But yeah, I wanted to just say it because it it's so stupid like Hank would always tell me like dude
It's so stupid that you think that people are just gonna all of a sudden be like we don't want to listen to big cat anymore
Right, but I had it in my head
Starting off when you weren't established
Yeah, but then I just let it go and I just should have I should have just fucking done something about keeping kayfabe alive
Yeah, and I should have fucking tight, how are you gonna tell your child?
I know, it's tough.
My child will be born into a world where there is no.
You know who's a way bigger Steeler fan than me?
Way bigger?
Jersey Jerry.
You'll never guess where he's from.
Doesn't matter.
Yeah, I mean, yeah.
I know the feeling.
I mean, mine is like, obviously, I'm not even close to your stature or whatever, but every
so often people wonder why I'm not like a diehard Colts fan with Peyton Manning.
And it's a similar sort of mental torture of,
I'm a fake sports fan because I'm not.
Or I just sort of understand how you get there, where then you
just.
I think we all deal with imposter syndrome on some level.
Yeah.
I had this.
Also, I think Hank asked, or no, PFD asked me,
he's like, why didn't she ever have an accent?
My parents are not from Boston, so that's why.
So yeah, that's kinda it.
And then I wish my last text to my uncle,
I do think he was friends with Phil Jackson.
I'll text my aunt.
Don't dig, don't do this.
Don't do this.
She's so funny, she came down for Thanksgiving
and she lives in the North suburbs,
and she was just like, I was talking to her
and she was like, oh yeah, your cousin's coming into town in two weeks.
I was like, oh great, you guys are going to come down?
She's like, no, too far.
She also was like, I'm so happy you moved back to Chicago.
And she's like, too far to come down.
Like 40 minutes.
As a lifelong Chicagoan, we appreciate you making the switch.
We need someone else to listen to besides AM radio. I caught you in the stall one time eating chowder
Sneak a chowder
Home and yet this is if you lose someone for this you never had them. Yeah. No, that's true
That's a really good point, but it is I look I'm an over thinker you guys know that
Yeah, I care like over thinker. You guys know that. I care like
not do the Michael Scott. I care a lot about the quality of the product and what we put
out. And so I get in my own head. And that's that's you weren't wrong to think it either.
Chicago's it seems to my my interpretation. It seems to be a city of transplants. And
yet there is like a sense that if you are a transplant, you're not really yeah They'll shame like like I'm from the city, but it's like as far northwest as you get Edison Park still a city
But even then they're like, oh
Yeah, so it's a weird it's very weird you're not wrong to think that that's a thing
But the thing is you were always a Chicago fan. That's the difference
Yeah, I mean and I was a Boston fan growing up.
Not super diehard, but I always had that connection
to Chicago with that side of the family.
And I was just like, they were always kind of my second team,
which I know that sounds lame.
People are going to be like, second team.
Michael Jordan can make anyone a second team.
Whether you were from Newton or Barrington,
people would treat you the same.
And the Chicago people.
I appreciate that.
And yeah, I'm not going anywhere.
My kids are in Chicago public schools.
They're here.
Like someone-
They have Chicago accents.
Yeah.
I think Jerry, oh Jerry, when we went to the PAWS furball, he cornered my-
Yes.
Mark was there. Great event. Love pause. We're actually going
to do a pause day where Posh Chicago we do. We give money from Stella blue. We're going
to do a everyone goes that day and like from the office we're going to help volunteer.
So we're at the pause fur ball and Jerry is also in his own head all the time.
And he basically cornered my wife and was like,
how many more years do you think Dan's gonna work?
Oh.
And, uh, because he's, like, afraid that I'm just gonna be like, I'm done.
Yeah.
And my wife was like, well, our one-year-old is one.
Mm-hmm.
So we're not going anywhere for 18 years.
Like, and even then we're probably going to still live in Chicago.
Maybe we'll get a place in the winter somewhere else.
But like we have a home that we're this is our home and we're this is where we wanted to live.
We wanted to move back here.
And so, yeah, it was like, oh, yeah, right.
Your idea is one.
So, yeah, that's it.
Also, I got my tattoo. Yes. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, right, your idea is one. So yeah, that's it. Also, I got my tattoo.
Yes.
Oh!
Yeah, Tyreke Stevenson.
There it is.
Tyreke Stevenson.
I always think of you.
How'd it feel?
It didn't hurt that much.
So this is a Grateful Dead lightning bolt.
And I got it on my wrist because I was like,
I don't want my kids to see it.
I would say 90 seconds after I walked out the door
last night, my son was like, what is that?
And I was just like, well, we'll get you that.
That's nice though, if you ever want to,
you get covered up with a watch.
Yeah, I have a watch that I'll wear.
Well, that was a cover up, you had departed quote.
Yeah, right, right.
With my Pat the Patriot.
Oh, yeah. I understand it probably seems bigger when you're in the center of it, but yeah, I haven't really consumed
No, I know even survivors for the most part. I'm behind well
So we'll I was saving talking surviving when will gets here tomorrow. We could maybe do a little recap
I also talked about a pick them whole boy. Did that fuck me up mentally yeah
That show is gonna tear this company that show is seemed worth it for all parties Recap I also talked about a pick them. Oh boy. Did that fuck me up mentally yeah
Co-workers no yeah, there's a reason they're strangers on CBS. Oh my god Then they make you guys work side by side the next day Brandon does this make you rethink the?
Not being like when they were asking everybody in the company
That's worth a damn to be in this thing
and they didn't ask you, does that make you rethink?
No, I'm 100% glad, I actually declined it.
Oh, wow.
You did?
Oh, that's tricky news, wow.
People are gonna take that seriously.
Yeah, I like, I've replayed it a million times in my head
and the one that I keep replaying is Brandon
and I talking on Monday morning of the show
starting and him being like, I should have been in it and
Like thinking like god damn it. I wish I had just switched with him right there Yeah, yeah, but this is also a good thing because listen this was gonna happen anyway
I feel so much better now. I feel like a weight is lifted off me
I was so stupid to have it consume me to the way it did
I know the trolls will will keep coming, but that's fine.
Well, they're going to come regardless.
Yeah, and look.
They have no power now.
I've had a very good run where, you know, people like me,
and I think people kind of like the fact that I'm getting shit right now.
And listen, it's my turn to get shit. I'm cool with that.
Like, everyone needs to have a turn getting dragged through the internet.
Yeah.
My number came up today, or this week.
I think the trolls are going to be like the end of the Truman show where it's over now
and they just turn it off and they're like, now what do we do?
Yeah.
I think that's going to be the reaction.
Now that you've addressed it, it's like, well, fuck.
Yeah.
Now what?
Now I guess that's it.
I guess they delete their accounts or something?
Yeah.
And I shouldn't have been ashamed.
I shouldn't have been, you know, like I would, people would tweet me and I shouldn't have been ashamed. I shouldn't have been you know like I would people would
Would tweet me and I would DM them being like oh, please you know delete that like this was like six seven years ago
Like why would I see why was I doing that? No? I get it because it's like I was stupid
but it started off as almost a
Necessity because of yeah, but then it became something bigger that I shouldn't have but it was just too far gone
I know I shouldn't have let it be that and now you should just lean into it Yeah, just joke about it yourself
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll sing a song for you guys dude you should join a troupe a theater
I do have a good voice
Shit I do have a good voice and act for I'm from Syria
You have a good voice. Can't act for shit.
I'm from Syria. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha let people bother me anymore. It was so stupid that I was just letting it fester in my head
and bother me. If someone said something, it would kind of make me have a bad afternoon.
It's like, what am I doing? Hank is the best. Hank has had my back. You guys are obviously
the best, too, but Hank's kind of my sensei where he just like you know, I'll bounce stuff off him and he was just like
dude you have incredible life, incredible family, you paid well, you have friends here,
you have shows that people like, what do you care? And it's true. What do I care? Like
it's so stupid. It's so trivial and it's so stupid that I made it such a fucking big deal.
And I did. I made it a big deal in my head.
And it did bother me. And it's like, time to let it stop.
Yeah. There we go.
Anybody else have anything?
Brandon's sick. Oh, Brandon, go lay down.
Can you do one favor for me, though?
Can you tap someone in, and then we'll put a clock, TJ,
and we'll have the next person tap someone.
I like that. Yeah, that's good.
And if anybody has shit to get off their chest,
you open the floodgate.
I also murdered someone when I was 14.
Fine. Yeah.
That's fine.
Yeah.
It's like next season of Surviving Bar
is still gonna have, like, weapons.
I will not be participating.
Who will be?
Right.
I don't know. That right. I don't that game I
Don't I don't I I really don't know how to explain like the pink wedding was just
It was mental torture. It was five hours just sitting on this court, right being you know hustle around in the paranoia
And I mean I've been binging the certain the real show and I see what it does to like you said strangers. Mm-hmm
Having a personal relationship. Yes. Well in
Spoilers, so if you haven't watched maybe pause it or go ahead
I my biggest regret is I quit I shouldn't have quit but that's a part of the game in like I like people quit though
I know but I'm such a fucking pussy cuz like I should have just kept on going
I should have powered through and it was so and you know
It was just so stupid that I quit
And I really really regret regret that because I went into the game being like I'm gonna play really hard this year
And I did play really hard and I just became a shell of my oh no. Oh boy
Look at this get up today TJ start it start it come on I
Was tapped
But not to sit in his seat because he said Connor
Hello, how are you feeling? I feel your chain guy now. I am a chain guy. Yeah, okay. Yeah, why?
I'm a tattoo guy. That's true. We're all reinventing ourselves. Did you get a longer chain? I got an extender for it
Got an extendo
Two centimeter or two whatever
Length extender and it just made it a little bit long people were saying to look like a choker before
That was its original. No no no no this was a couple days ago, but I am a chain guy
Do you do you know how to put it on?
Yeah, now I've gotten better at it, but for a while it was tough
Do you want to go to my guy Eliante and get a piece?
You should get an a piece from Eliante you guys have a guy Eliante. It's Marasha's guy Eliante
I I would love to go yeah
Yeah, that was when we got all the chains from around the office, but yeah, I'm a chain guy
I've been trying to become a chain guy for a while
Well, we're at a point where I feel comfortable doing it and I found what what sparked this
I still don't understand cuz you're very much
You're very much a guy that like sees Glen Powell do something in a movie and you're like I should make that my whole person
Miles Teller had his haircut in this manner. I should do that too. So who was wearing the chain?
I don't believe that you just randomly decided
you wanted to be a chain guy.
You did it for a person.
I would just say.
Yeah.
Months ago, all the way back in the summer,
I saw a bunch of people who would just walk around
wearing chains.
Like, think of your chain.
Yeah, I have two chains.
Those were slaves.
No.
No, I became a chain guy, I don't know,
like five, 10 years ago.
Yeah, you've been a chain guy.
So one of my chains is-
Wait, you weren't a chain guy when you were younger.
No.
One of my chains is,
Rone gave me this chain.
It's the Saint of gambling luck. Hasn't really's that dude? Yeah, wait on it to the background on that um
And then my other chain is my wife got me a she has a matching
Chain as well. It's an asteroid
From outer space a real asteroid one like an asteroid rock that they mined in Africa
Well pretty fucking cool. Yeah, that's what I have since in
Kayatano patron saint of gamblers wait hasn't worked, but I appreciate Ron trying unemployed and bankers
Yeah, I guess gambling has been around. Oh my god. Yeah, I wish it worked better
Yeah. I guess gambling has been around. Oh my god, yeah. I wish it worked better. Maybe you need to get it blessed. Yeah. So wait, what, you became a chain guy? I just think
that in general you could wear the most basic outfit. There are a lot of people who just
wear like sweatpants, but then they throw on a chain and automatically it's like, oh,
this guy's pretty cool. Right. So I, I, I've been trying to reinvent my look for a while.
Do you want to be perceived as cool?
I just feel like I dress like a child, which is indicative
today of you know what I'm wearing, but this is especially
like a you're a nice pants and a sweater guy.
That's what you told me that last week.
You should lean into that's who you are.
You're like you should be doing that more often.
I yeah, I'm trying to be just a more present.
I'm 25 now.
I just turned 25 a couple weeks ago. Like I want to be more presentable and yeah, I'm trying to be just a more person. I'm 25 now I just turned 25 a couple weeks ago like I want to be more presentable and
Yeah, I just want to dress like an adult and
People see me and they go. Oh, yeah, that's a well put together guy as opposed to like oh he is wearing yeah like that
That's what you think I should be going for. Mm-hmm. I think you look great. Thank you, man. I appreciate that
Well today's a special day.
Today's a special day.
Penn State socks.
How do you think the streams are going to go tonight? Because we actually have like,
so it's from Notre Dame, it is a large Frank Chief and from Penn State it's Connor, Max,
Jeff D'Lo.
Yeah.
So 3v3.
Frank, I just found out about yesterday. I did. I did too.
Coming out here. That is a wild card. I'm Frank versus Max is the the top. I don't know
because Connor's insane too. Max is not Matt Matt like Penn State football is Max is like
fourth team. Yeah. I mean like yeah he's he's Eagles Phillies Nova basketball. So honor
is this is your car
if you think it's gonna be you and Frank or is it problems I think it's like she's a big
Notre Dame fan like who's gonna be doing the yelling and screaming and large went to Notre
Dame large I just found out is a dark horse then huh yeah it could be the I think larger
is in Rudy yes he was yes and yes he was he was in the crowd shot yeah oh my god so if
anything I think it would be me versus Frank,
because we were talking about it on Mostly Sports,
like I'm a Philly fan, but Penn State football is by far my one.
Yeah.
I would do, like, I don't know what I would do for a Penn State championship.
It might be you versus Chief.
Would you trade a sex tape leaking for a national championship?
Yes.
Yes.
Wow.
Yes, I would.
But you came like in 45 seconds, and you apologized
And you said I love you all your coming
Make it a minute and yeah, okay, okay, 45 seconds a minute would be yeah, how many pumps?
Not many one long pumps you steep it
What if it was only what if you came in one pump, but you came for like three minutes?
Oh.
So you're like, ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh uh you were naked but wearing naked with a belt., you had one loafer on. What if it landed on your loafer, Connor? You were naked, but wearing just a belt.
You were naked with a loafer.
Would you do that?
What about that scenario?
I probably, I would, yeah, I probably would.
But what if you were like-
I'd be dying for a Penn State International Championship.
I've been wanting it for so long.
What's the line?
I don't know.
I just, I think I love this team.
I love the school and I want to give back.
And if there's something I could do
to get an Asher Championship.
You wanna give back.
Yeah, because I mean, this is.
How much did you give them?
Yeah.
I mean, they gave me a lot,
and I'm wanting to then give that back, you know?
I'm not here without Penn State.
This scenario is the sex tape that you're giving back.
I suppose, yeah.
So.
I'm very, I'm terrified to be on the stream. I suppose. So I'm very excited.
I'm terrified to be on the stream,
because every single time I'm on a stream, we don't do well.
And it turns out to be an awful game,
whether it's the Phillies or the Eagles or whatever.
And it's just boring, and it's not a good watch.
And we're just sitting there like idiots,
because our team sucks.
And I don't like being in the cave,
because I have a bad track record.
But I'm hoping that changes tonight.
You said you're McDonald, though but I'm hoping that changes tonight.
You had your McDonald though.
I did have my McDonalds.
Yeah, you had your McDonalds.
So, I think I mentioned it a couple days ago.
We're going to change the streams for the weekend.
The college football streams are going to be packed.
There are going to be a lot of people in them.
I think tomorrow night we're going to have big Evs here.
Awesome.
Tate's here.
Gruden's going to be here.
Will Compton's going to be here.
And then on Saturday and Sunday,
we're gonna try a new streaming technique
of seven people per stream and no phones.
That's great.
But this one's gonna be a free-for-all.
Okay. There's so many people.
Like, we have to have a free-for-all.
I was gonna ask, yeah, with the phone policy and whatnot.
No, no, you can do phones.
I like to live-tweet.
It was college football was gonna be free-for-all.
NFL's gonna be, because I wanna do it for Gruden I want I want to
You know prove yeah that we we put lock in yeah, yeah, yeah
My introduction to Connors Penn State fandom was when Ohio State Penn State played last year
We did a stream and going into it
We were kind of feeling each other out on how how crazy was gonna get and I was like I listen
I love Ohio State football each year for him. I watch every second of every game
I'm not really a punch a hole in the drywalls yell and scream type guy
Yeah, I'm more of just like a yes, just vibe it out and then you know, sulk if we lose honestly
That's that's how I and you're like, yeah, I'm sort of the same way. You're like, I'm more of a chill guy
I hit you with the like I'm not like those other guys and you're like, yeah, I'm sort of the same way. You're like, I'm more of a chill guy. I hit you with the like, I'm not like those other guys.
And you're like, yeah, same, same.
Some of those Penn State fans are crazy.
I'm not like that.
And then I think the opening drive, Ohio State punted,
there was a scenario like Ohio State punted,
it went like 50 yards, but then it bounced backwards,
like three yards.
And on the bounce back three yards,
Connor like jumps out of his chair and he's like,
fuck yes, that's huge for us.
It was a field position game. Oh my god
We got better field positions. If you're jumping out of your chair for three yard bounce back on punt and then it's just been
Penn State's far and away your number one you damn near ship them. Yeah, he's crazy to you can Penn State do no wrong
To Mark's point
To Mark's point
When I say stuff like that I am not a shit talker.
And that's part of the reason why when I get on the stream, I'm like, I don't really know
what my avenue is.
Oh, you should do it tonight.
But that's not me.
And I already talked to Large too.
I've never really worked with Large, but I have a lot of respect for him.
Great dude.
In theory, you love Large.
Chief, in theory, I love Large.
Chief, love Chief. Frank Frank don't have much experience with
But point being like they're my co-workers love being around them
And I'm not the guy who's gonna be like oh fuck you like but that's not me
But he'd max to do that for ya possibly, but like when it comes to my own team. Yeah, I'm gonna celebrate
Yo, oh yeah, that's that's shit. Okay
No, yeah, that's okay No, yeah, you're gonna do a lot of celebrating tonight, right? I hope but again that room is
Torture I that that room is not suited for it's where dreams die. Yes. Yeah
But I hope we continue on and we're able to punch our ticket to just whisper in Max's ear
Whatever you want him to say whatever
It'll be your translator. Yeah, I max is a guy
I love going to battle with and when it comes to Philly sports like yeah, I definitely
Defer to him. I'm like is D low in town. Yeah, D max is kind of yeah
I think I described this the other day max's oh you're running out of time. Yeah, but max is kind of your
he's like your alter ego what you would like to be because he's like in terms of Philly sports,
he, he is just all instinct, aggressiveness, emotion.
You're a little more calm. Yeah. But I reserve,
if it weren't for the social faux pas, maybe that would be you.
That's what's inside of you. Yeah. That's who he wants to be. That's the man.
And yeah, everyone has an inner Max. Yeah, maybe it comes out tonight.
Max doesn't have an inner Connor.
I don't know.
No, he can't be.
Yeah.
He can't be.
Connor's a mask.
Is Jalen Hurts out of Concussion Protocol?
Yeah, he put a helmet on.
No, but is he out?
He's gonna be practicing.
I don't know.
Okay.
We'll see.
But I think he's going to play on Sunday.
See, if I said this to Max, he would literally try to play. He is going to play on Sunday. I'm not worried about that. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no I do know the final score.

To a woman it was 55 degrees outside, and she was wearing a winter coat mmM. I was wearing a t-shirt mmM
That's funny how weather works. Yeah, that was crazy
So that was a fun little story. I was a good weather story. Why don't we?

Have you gotten him to like heartily chuckle at you? Yeah, we have a good time
We've fun but like a real laugh like that was a good one Jake. Does he think you're weird?
Yeah, I think he thinks that I'm weird based on the things that other people have told him But we've only said your weird things right, but I think but the things that we tell that we tell people are the things you've told us
Yeah, so based on fact yes, but I'm saying I haven't done anything
Myself for him to be like that was fucking weird, but based on the reputation that I had here
There are some weird things have you done your impression of him Tim no that scares me a little bit
Do for us?
Pretty good the add a meal with him?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like a stew or?
He invited me over to the house.
We had a food.
Oh, that's huge.
It was fun.
That's nice.
Did he have beer for you?
Yeah, I don't, I don't, I'm, I drive and stuff, so.
So you're just living Stephen Che's dream?
Well, if Stephen was like 25 then maybe, yeah.
But I don't know if Stephen's in for this now.
I'm living my own dream, brother
Steven I tried to explain to my wife last night you're swimming and she was just as flabbergasted
She was like, what do you mean? He's combined two different challenges. He's being very efficient
Can I ask you a question about your lap Steven? Yeah. Oh somebody told me that yeah lap is just one
No, no cuz that's Tate's bullshit
Tate was like take off some swimmer months ago Tate was getting fat
and he was like I'm gonna start swimming laps in my pool in my apartment building and
he said okay, I'm gonna keep myself accountable by telling you how many laps I swim every day and
He said he came in he said I did six laps
I was like good for you goes. Yeah three down and backs
So I said you did three laps so are you doing down and back is one lap or down?
I would do what you would count as three okay, so you're doing down and back is one real laps, but then
Depends on the size of the pool. I guess but it's but it shouldn't so it's down once in the Olympics. Oh
Shit 25 yards all right well then Michael's 200, but oh
Whatever I mean, I don't know how fucking big the pool is
Just getting a little complicated
Yeah, yeah, cool. It actually this is mad confusing to read Wow
What started as such a simple challenge of hold your breath and swim?
Three and three calls look you can only do one and a half has become while holding his breath. Oh
Hold my breath to one side, but not underwater to one side while also looking ahead to see where you had
Straightforward so swimming yeah, yeah, but above water above water water holding breath
Wait no
Holding your breath above the water too many people are day keeping my New Year's resolution. I'm, I'm, I got my, in my mind,
I got a goal. I'm going to achieve it. I'm looking for clarification though. You're
holding your breath, but you're above the water. The above below thing has me very good.
I, I'm swimming on regular, regular freestyle. But I'm swimming regular regular freestyle. Oh, yeah holding your how are you holding your breath?
This is down. What do you mean? How am I holding my bread? You're just not you're just not breathing
So you didn't breathe first, but like you three lengths if you wanted to inhale you could I
Mean inhale water I'm underwater my face is underwater. So you're not looking where you're going
You know how a regular swimmer I asked their head that he's still looking his head straight down, but he's still somehow when I get close
Eyes are up, and I'm looking at the wall, but then you don't breathe
Why not breathe? Why you don't breathe? Yeah? Why don't you invest like a snorkel is very important?
I just chain know that swimmers breathe well. I do
Good question TJ my body my choice
But okay gonna debate that
Defeated and he got us
Some a snorkel maybe or something yeah there at the floor that would be pretty cool. They make those
So you're open to breathe you invented. Oh, they would still hold his breath with the snow with the
into breathing invented oh she would still hold his breath with the snow with this yeah I'll not breathe I know some people like died with snorkels yes yeah
then they know that yeah so you do well yeah when you're snorkeling like you'll
go down in the water so like it get a closer look and then you come up and you
you go I thought that was for like the pros. It's not breathing? No, like that type of snorkeling,
where you're just going fully under with the nozzle thing.
What?
Yeah, I don't know.
Jake has been fun.
Yeah, I missed you guys.
Miss you, Jake.
I'll be around all weekend.

Job check so I want to talk about this just the boys before everybody gets in
Girls get it. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, it's fucked describe the ideal
Girls get it yeah, yeah, yeah, it's fucked up describe the ideal
Chocolate chip cookie yeah, we can't have the chicks here muddy in this up um I think I'll start I mean I don't want to describe the whole cookie, but I'll start let's all take it one word at a time
See what we build chocolate
I'll tell I'll go round
I'll tell I'll go round um Liam we're describing the ideal
chocolate chip cookie all traits fragile
you want a fragile I like it when it
breaks apart I want mine to have some bend
crunch oh hot
what chay crunch for the girls get in
what I don't know chase it well it's
just describe the ideal chocolate chip cookie
Crunchy I disagree. I love the crunch me too. I live for a car
Do you want to smash out the I wouldn't mind is that I wanted to borderline melt snap is the wrong word
Because snap would be like like a frozen doughnut or something like the tape
Because snap would be like like a frozen doughnut or something like the tape
The Entenmann's you ever freeze the Entenmann's now never thought about that or frozen all right better that was stupid a frozen
thin mint
That's a snap, but I don't really like you don't want that I want the crunch want a crunch a step below a snap
I want mine to be I like Sam near a liquid like plasma really
Yeah, like marshmallow. I like the soft inside
Crunch on the outside sweet manny bees and some need I don't know those perfectly you know see maybe no
That's close to you
You gotta go. It's is it best cookies. Okay. Yeah best cookies. Do you like chips ahoy big cat?
No, they suck suck but
Why I like the M&M ones okay? Okay?
How how old do you think is too old to be buying chalk chips ahoy cookies? I don't know why you bring each of this. I think that matters because if you're
22 out of college with you know limited life skills
I think that's totally fine. That's very limited life skills. That has to do with cookies?
What does that have to do with cookies, brother? You can't have life skills and cookies.
Brother, talk to me. You can't have life skills and cookies both.
No one man can have all that. Well what do you do you think like 25 is
tool do you think 20 is tool do you think 35? I don't think there's an age limit on
cookies.
For snacks, if you're hungry for a snack, get a snack.
If you want it, buy it.
Chay and I got in a heated debate because he was saying I'm way too old to be buying chips ahoy this morning.
You are.
Yes, and I was like, I don't even really know what age has to do with it.
Naturally, Jack McCarthy jumped in.
It's like, if anything, you got to buy the Tate's cookies, a nicer cookie.
I'm like, I want a bigger bang for my buck. I'm going to gonna buy two sleeves of chips ahoy you should probably just buy whatever you want to buy
That's what I told you is a little boy snack see and then I said and then they were saying oh, that's girly
I'm like you know what's girly throwing on an apron and making your own cookies. Yeah, what the fuck kind of name is chips ahoy
Yeah, where they going for they going for you can see it Stephen
No, this is a little boy snack.
What's a big boy snack?
I think even Tate's because they'll sell it in a deli.
Like, I think that is, that's okay.
So Oreo's a little boy snack too then?
Oreo's you can't make yourself at home.
But I don't see, I don't know why that applies.
You can't make chips ahoy.
If you're an adult, you can make a better version
of a chocolate chip cookie fairly easily.
Or you can just get a store, a baked one from like Jewel or whatever, the bakery counter or any nice bakery.
Right. But you were saying chips ahoy are little boys ones based on like where you can buy them and where you can't.
You can buy Oreos same place anywhere you can buy chips ahoy.
But there aren't any Oreo alternatives that are that you can't make an Oreo that's going to be better than the Oreo.
You can make any chocolate chip cookie or get any chocolate extremely easily that is better than chips
So this is a crazy today
I
I'm at a loss for words. Yeah, if you
How much of a boy? I'm not I think they're grotesque, but anyone could make a worry. Oh, what's your most eaten food?
He loves your candy boy loves ranch dressing no
Remember I I just I looked up
I made the mistake of googling what ranch dressing was because I got curious last month like the ingredients
Yeah, I'm off well. You should never do that with anything. I know, but I was like, you don't like that there's mayo in it, huh?
Yeah.
I was like, yo, has anyone even thought of what ranch dressing is, where it comes from?
I was the first, hopefully the last.
If you do that with your Mike and Ikes too, though, you'd probably be grossed out by that.
No.
The sour watermelon Mike and Ikes are good and will always be good.
Most eaten food. I
Don't know price what you have for breakfast used to send me pictures of your breakfast. Yeah, I only breakfast I'd send you pictures of dinner
Do you know what's incredible? Yeah, I gotta put you guys on to it
I don't know if I've said this peanut butter checks. I can't have peanut butter cuz of Luke. Yeah, I would love a check
I'd love a peanut butter checks is maybe my favorite cereal. You can't find the cereal
Yeah, you don't eat peanut butter at all because of your brother that's all amazing
Oh, I'll sneak when I can or when he's not in the same state as me. Yeah, you're a really good brother
Yeah, there it is peanut butter. Sharks. Yeah, they're so fucking good, dude. I
never had those
Someone told me this they saw you and your brother walking home, but you were two blocks apart. Yeah that checks out
You guys leave the apartment at the same time is it a pace issue?
Well, we haven't been walking because he's been over and cuz it's colder but normal days. Yeah, I'm just faster walking
Don't even attempt to keep pace. You guys leave the door.
You leave the front door together.
Yes, but I drift further away because I'm faster walking
and I want to get to work because I like working here.
And then he, I guess, is slower.
He still likes working here.
But he's slower.
And then does he do you say like bye to him when you walk?
Oh, just coasting.
It's a natural. So you have like kind of conversations when you walk on just coasts the natural?
It's a you have like kind of conversations that fade into the horizon. Yeah, I'm not I don't I don't well
What would you have headphones on?
But do you to also make it a point to leave the house at the same time?
music oh
No, yeah
But why leave the house the same time if we're not gonna be walking together?
I don't know.
I just feel like I don't know.
How do you, when you go on walks, are you just looking straight ahead and getting to
where you wanna go or are you observing your surroundings?
Straight ahead, looking down, sometimes looking to the side if I'm crossing a street.
Whoa.
But you're not one of those guys.
You're not looking at the... Like how those guys. You're not looking at the.
Like how Chase swims.
You're not eyeing the restaurants you're walking by.
You're like.
No.
I got to window shopping.
No.
Window shopping.
Do you check yourself out in the window as you walk by
and you can see your reflection.
No, I don't need to do that.

He won't leave.
Shit, Mark.
He almost left.
Close?
OK.
I don't know how close.
He says not close.
Well, kind of close.
I don't know.
I'm the wrong guy to ask.
Yeah.
Yeah, that clears it up. That's terrifying. It's bad. Yeah. not close well kind of I don't know I'm the wrong guy that yeah yeah that's
clears it out terrifying it's bad yeah it is bad it's like well I don't even
know my brain can't comprehend like how you rebuilt mmm it's crazy it's 50
billion dollars in damowee happened and yeah Colorado like I said a couple years ago. New Orleans, Katrina, like how do you rebuild? I don't understand it.
These, these, yeah.
It's mind blowing.
Excited for the game tonight?
Yeah, like 2013 kind of feel.
Notre Dame.
You think they're gonna get killed?
No.
Oh.
No.
I, 22-13.
Oh, I thought you had the year.
I even, 2013, I couldn't remember when they played Alabama. Did they play Alabama 2013?
Was that I remember I think that was one. Yeah when they got killed in the PCS probably checks out. No
See how I'd get yeah
Team probably what?
2213 ish kind of game Notre Dame wins
Just I think they're very tough team play
okay I think I'm gonna bet on them did the FCS championship happen yeah yeah
bison they have a fucking date are they going to the sport they own like the
Mountain West or what well KB oh well the king leave its castle that you think
they'd prefer if you ask the play watch the coaches, they stay in the FCS? They get a
chance to win for a national championship every year. Don't
you think it's time to like step up and compete? What does
stepping up to the mound? What if there's a bigger castle
around? Making the play, like the real playoff? What if the
big twelve offered? Then yeah, I think they'd be all for it. I
don't think the mound in the west is moving the needle. It's
just, it's just not,
if they could stay, compete for a national championship every single year, whether undefeated
or not, I think they're going to keep adding trophies to the dynasty. I get the appeal. Yes.
But their castle doesn't have a moat. It doesn't have a moat. It's not really a castle. They got
to need a moat. You know what a moat is? You know what a moat is? No. You have a moat, bro? A moat. It's not really a castle without a moat. It's not really a castle without a moat. You know what a moat is? You know what a moat is? No. You're even moat bro?

Yes.
You cooked us cookies before.
What's your favorite type of cookie?
My favorite type?
Describe it in one word.
Chocolate chip.
Yeah, that's two words.
No, no, but like the texture or whatever.
Soft, warm, crunchy.
Warm, soft. Yeah okay so you like the soft
yeah I like a little crunch on the outside but I like the the end to be
nice and soft and chewy warm I need the crunch mm-hmm so you like the Tate's
ones like a bag I do know those are oh my god those aren't the best I'm not
gonna stand on them on the mountain for Tate's being the best in upper-class
cookie though it is an upper-class cookie the best. That's an upper class cookie though.
It is an upper class cookie.
I just don't have an upper class palate by any means.
I know you don't.
It's just Chips Ahoy.
I like Chips Ahoy.
What is it I don't like Chips Ahoy
but I like the M&M ones?
Is that key word?
I think you like M&Ms.
That's fine.
I think you just might like M&Ms.
I hate the chewy Chips Ahoy one, the red bag.
That's the one I like.
Oh gross.
I don't like the chewy one either. Yeah, that's the only one I like. I wouldn't eat the normaloy one the red bag. That's the one I like oh gross. I don't like the chewy one either
Yeah, that's the only one I like I wouldn't eat the normal chips ahoy really you guys aren't looking for any crunching your cookies That's what it boils down to I think I like the Kepler with the with the M&M. Yeah, those ones love
Not ahoy
Megan were you part of the Mackenzie dream team?
Yes.
So we had 2,500 apples.
Insane.
Yeah.
Yeah, we're gonna have a lot of luck.
That's overwhelming.
Yes.
How are we getting through that?
We're put them all in the tunnel.
Yeah.
Fight to the death.
And then they put one knife in there.
And uh, ho.
Like squid games?
Survivors come out in a conga line.
I like that we just have a camera that just sticks out. come out in a conga line. I like that. We just have a camera
That's probably really expensive
Is it permanently out there the first thing Stefan said is yeah, we could put a camera in there
But it's not gonna be permanent. Yeah, it is
We got to get grewed in the tunnel tomorrow. Oh, man. Yeah break my heart
But it's a rite of passage. Maybe malice like it is a passage. passage yeah I want to put the painting in it in the tunnel yeah my idea is if
we put the painting at the end of the tunnel with a sharpie marker and then we
can have guests be like oh go go sign the poster that said that you were in
the tunnel and that's how we trapped them in the tunnel plus then they sign
it and then we have a painting whoa we should put like a couple human bones back there though. Just like one one femur
They have to walk past it imagine like a trap chute in the middle of the tunnel. Let's buy a real human bone
You think you could do that easy? Yeah? Yeah, how would you acquire one bone dot-com bones calm?
I don't think you could buy I think you can I think a lot of the ones in schools are like real humans.
Those are human?
Oh, okay.
That's terrifying.
You can.
Bones.com.
Oh, hell yeah, the P-Rod wheels.
Bones.com.
P-Rod X-95.
Bones.com.
Wait, so, Megan, how are we gonna get through
these applications?
You're part of the dream team.
Yeah, so Kate was texting me earlier,
and she just sent me just the first application she saw,
and it described, when describing unweight,
it said probably too much.
Oh, poor God.
Pass him through.
So yeah, we're gonna, we have a lot of work to do.
We're gonna obviously get some guys in here
that'll bring some fun, but we gotta eventually find,
we gotta find a good match for McKenzie.
He deserves a good boy.
So have you looked through a bunch?
I haven't looked through a bunch.
I've looked through like five or six.
Are they like real or trolls?
Some are definitely real, but there's gonna be some trolls
and just be some weirdo guys that are like,
do you know Dan Katz?
Can I hang out with him?
I think.
Who really does at this point?
Yes, no one.
Yeah, they're gonna hang out with me.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Fuck it.
Fuck it.
Why not?
I mean, this is gonna be a lot.
We're gonna find a friend.
Maybe so, maybe so.
We're gonna find,
I think we're gonna find somebody that's like one of one.
Yeah.
And I don't know if that'll be good or bad.
So we're gonna do, so next week we won't do it, but the week after we're going to find somebody that's like one of one. Yeah. And I don't know if that'll be good or bad. So we're going to do, so next week we won't do it,
but the week after we're going to start.
So that will be the whittling down week.
And then the following week we'll do in person.
Yeah.
We're planning on getting in the conference room
and bringing a bunch of comfy clothes and snacks
and just basically having a Tinder board on the screen
just scrolling through them.
Just yes, no. I would, my only request would be be I would like Blutman to be there. Yeah. Yeah
The which one the we're talking Liam, right? Yeah, and if we're choosing like how many did we have for malice?
How many would did it start with like four? No, no, it's the beginning
35 80 applicants we will it down to
25 or 30 and then from there
Should we do like a March Madness 64?
Honestly, I'm like I'll head to head. That's awesome head-to-head matchups. That's pretty cool. Only one kid
Oh, yeah, you could do like and then the final. Yeah is here
I feel like you should make them run the gauntlet to see how coordinated they are
So we were thinking they could submit a video
of them running and Quigs could just outline it
so you can't see their physical.
I like that.
I like the tournament bracket.
Yeah, that's interesting.
Could you imagine just throwing a Mincy running video
in there even though he's not an applicant
just to throw it off?
Just Mincy's blacked out body running.
Mincy should be an applicant.
He might be.
Yeah, but I think you could tell like you can tell that silhouette
How's this is take him in there? So how's been see doing Megan because you know he and I we've we've repaired our relationship
But he I assume he always just unloads everything on you. He's doing good
He he's really has a really good plan coming up for content
He's gonna just tackle baseball season really hard nice not even if he don't think he's really has a really good plan coming up for content He's gonna just tackle baseball season really hard nice not even he don't think he's really worrying about basketball
I think he's gonna go straight straight to baseball
He kind of quartered Gruden up there for a little while course
And when he got up Hannah, and I got to see so much of his back slash ass
Yeah, it was it was insane
backslash ass, it was insane.
When he stands straight, I feel like the line from the top of his butt goes all the way down
to the bottom of his shoes.
He just has one big butt.
Yeah.
But his big plan for baseball season,
can you give us a hint?
Just really hit it hard.
Hit it hard.
Hit it hard, yeah.
No spoilers, please.
He's gonna hit it hard.
Okay. Really hard.
Like super hard.
He's been low key up there.
Yeah. Yeah, he's been doing... Yeah, he and Really hard, like super hard. He's been low key up there. Yeah.
Yeah, he's been doing.
Yeah, he and I start, we've been talking again.
Good.
Yeah, it's good.
He seems a bit neutered.
He, well, he got-
I'm starting to miss him.
Yeah, he needed to have a little bit of a, I fucked up.
Yeah.
He's kinda realized that.
Once he topples down those slippery stairs.
Oh my God.
10 to 15 times
We got a in a bodysuit. Oh
It's gonna be getting Clemmer and mincy and bodies. We gotta make that happen. It's gonna be that alone might just be the competition
Let us look at you for two hours. Yeah, like like just rotate for us
Like get him on one of those,
the picture things that like swings around.
Just like Clemmer and Minzy back to back
like doing a dance.
Clemmer's body suit's gonna look like a shooting sleeve.
That's all it's gonna be.
Clemmer by the way has a plan,
he's gonna get some purple hats going into the Super Bowl.
All right, nice, nice.
He's gonna drive down to New Orleans from New York and he will be in New purple hats going into the Super Bowl. All right, nice. He's gonna drive down to New Orleans from New York, and he will be in New Orleans, I
think, Tuesday at Super Bowl.
So we'll have him.
Where was the last one?
He got a new one recently, right?
Oh, yeah.
We have an update.
Over break or something?
He did.
Why do I have a vague memory of this?
Arizona?
Was it Arizona?
Was it a Suns hat in Arizona?
Yes, Arizona.
No, it was a Suns hat, but not in Arizona.
Not in Arizona?
Was it in Nevada?
Yeah, there we go. Purple hat every day across America. I will give you $40 that hat right now. Arizona no it was a Suns hat but not in Arizona was it in Nevada
I'll give you $50 cash American cash right now American Come from Paris. I bought it in Paris. You bought it in Paris. I appreciate that. I will he's in
Arizona every single hat and every single
My yes
Found a French son's
Dude just go down the street. What state is this in Arizona? Dude, just go down the street. What state is this?
In Arizona!
He bought it in Paris?
In Paris!
I must say, a vlog.
The Suns fan is like, oh I bought this in Paris, where will I find another one?
Wait, the guy's in it!
There's probably one at the register.
Is he a fake Frenchman?
Yeah, maybe.
He looks like he's from Pennsylvania.
I love Clemmer's purple hat search.
I think it's great.
The durag was great, and there was one with a K-State fan that was like, I can't give
it to you for the 40, and then Clemmer offered him 50, and he was like, oh shit.
Yeah, 50 is astronomical.
Yeah, once he gets past 25, it's going to start feeling really real.
Yeah.
Because like even seeing 17 with 33 to go, that's attainable.
Very attainable. He's got this. When he gets down to one state. Oh, that's attainable. Very attainable.
When he gets down to one state. Oh, it's gonna be electric.
There's gotta be some, like, I'm thinking,
can we like send hundreds of people in purple hats
as decoys?
Yes.
Like that scene from Fast and Furious.
So he walks into a room, there's 500 purple hats,
none of them will sell.
I think he has to keep Wisconsin off the board
so we could maybe go with him.
We'll go with him. Oh yeah. That would be fun. I think he has to keep Wisconsin off the board so we could maybe go with him. We'll go with oh, yeah
That would be fun. I think he has to parachute for his last one out of but the parachute has been remote all the previous hats
Yeah
Like a grandma's quilt yeah, we should quilt these together into one big purple hat
Or maybe to the shape of the US I
Don't know yeah, that should be easy easy I did I miss when he bought a
baby's hat did he buy a hat off a baby

Dude carrying around just to like an empty whoopee cushion so we can fart anywhere
Impresses for a little loophole. It's pretty good slides it under his own ass. Yeah, that's so you can just fart
What's up, Donnie? How we doing? Talk to us?
What do you guys want to? What's going on?
You sky dove recently.
That was back in Florida, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, over break.
How was it?
You're certified, so you do it yourself.
Yeah, I got my license, I don't know,
four or five years ago, almost.
Did you do it the correct way?
What's that mean?
Oh, well, come on, Nick.
That's, you're putting me on the spot there.
What does that mean?
It doesn't matter.
There's no correct way.
The rules to get your license are pretty wishy washy depending on where you go
to get them. That seems like something you don't want to cut corners on. Yeah, I know you're probably right. Am I ousting you?
Is this gonna? No, no, no, no. The place I went is like the middle of nowhere, Indiana. Some guy
just had a plane and he's like you're my first student, but he told me that after I got my
like certification for the first step. But the process is pretty much like to get your license you start
It's called a FF accelerated freefall so you go to the plane
Starts with two two guys follow you and they're kind of in the air with you they can you're alone
There's not a guy on your back. No one's on your back your first jump ever
First time I ever did was solo. I lied and said I did tandem before oh my god
You're supposed to that's what I was tall your first and that's fucking oh yeah. Yeah my first
It was not from that high. I was it wasn't from like the that's work
It was only from like 10,000 feet or 5,000 feet
It was a shorter one where you jump out and like the basically the chute opens up right away
But I just told him I like they're like they want you to have at least one base jump
Tandem and I just didn't I wanted to skip that so I was like I've already done that and then no one checks
So that's where I mean there's no like regulations really, but it's as day. I feel like it's safer than people think so you've done. How many now only like 88?
Which no no no I know how that sounds but in the sky having community. That's like people kind of like
Okay, does the experience ever differ is it generally the same type of thrill it depends on if you do if you say you do
Like three or four in a day by the end of it
it's not like but you wait like a I went like a couple
years without doing it and then that's when it's like yeah the thrills the
scare is the same. So you want to be scared? Yeah yeah the scariest is the
ride up the airplane ride up because the doors usually that's terror those
planes are all kind of sketchy and you almost want to jump out it by just from
being in that plane for that long but no the thrills thrill's there every single time. It's fun every time.
Does anything like happen like different sometimes, like a body phenomenon or like...
It slows down. Each jump you do gets...
It's... You can... You know, the first time I think the first like 10 or 15 jumps,
it's all kind of a blur and then you can actually leave the plane and I don't know what the principle...
There's some scientific term for it, but everything looks like it's in slow motion.
So you can... You see the plane going away and you like remember everything you get like the sharpest memory
Of ever and then you have the biggest high obviously from the adrenaline
So I recommend this to anyone too, so you never tandem jump no
I've skied over once in the tandem jump so it's obviously you got a guy on your back
The scariest part is when they do the shoot you feel like you're about to fall out of their lap
Yeah, the with the harness. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
I mean you have that same feeling kind of in your in your own harness to the scariest part is when it's called the
Snivel and you pitch your you pull the shoot out the pilot goes out and then there's like probably 10 to 30 seconds of where
It's still opening and it's going like it's sniveling. So you're like losing altitude but and then it opens
Oh, yeah, you did that jump where you bought a parachute off eBay
Oh, yeah, but I bought you what and then you didn't open it until you jumped out of the plane
Well that how else you gonna know you have been somebody's lunch. Yeah, you kind of trust it in a gag pair
I bought it was a big one because you
What was the parachute like as kids? I just I like it
kindergarten farting yeah, I bought it on Facebook 90 90 Little yeah the one that you got under the rainbow one
What was that? Yeah? I guess you just there's a lot of trust in the community
I don't know it's but buying used parachutes isn't that it's very common in the
Skydiving space yeah, don't they usually unzip it and look
You I don't there's no zipper. What if what I don't I'm ass pattern on
I don't really know how to pack like I only to get your license you have to pack your own parachute
And I did that to get my license, and then I'm not the best like shoot packer
There is that's not so I didn't want to want the best shoot
I didn't yeah
So I didn't unpack it to then reap do like a shitty pack job on it
So I just like was there a moment when you're about to hit it. We were like I was like I hope this one works
What's the risk of being a shitty?
Shoot pack just a bad opening like you can get
Like kind of like the shock effect if it's not like smooth pack it opens up And you just get whiplash or it's tangled and then that's when you have problems and you have to chop it away and chop it
Away, yeah, you have to give the reserve and you have the main like I think ever I haven't had to do it yet
But anyone that do that long enough has a couple cutaways, and they say that's when it gets really fun
It's like your first oh fuck all you
Have you or do you know anyone who's tried doing psychedelics while jumping?
Mmm. I don't know about while jumping
I mean you can imagine that kind of the crew of a like a lifetime sky like I'm
You can imagine that kind of the crew of a like a lifetime sky like I'm maybe like a hobbyist at best But guys that do it for a living and every day and day out
It's kind of like a like a deadhead scene almost where it's they live there
They drive around with the weather to wherever the skydiving is and there's usually a lot of drugs involved
There's a lot of like beer games involved in skydiving if you miss the landing zone by a certain amount
It's called like the beer line if you land too far away. you have to buy beer for a whole... So it's just guys who have adrenaline
addictions? Basically, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A new thing is running while high on acid.
And this guy is doing 100 miles while he's constantly getting redosed on LSD in this
adoptive manner. You have a video of it? I think it's about to come out. I saw, I feel like I saw
a promo for it. People are saying if you do that in the snow, it's one to come out. I saw I feel like I saw a promo people are saying like if you if you do that
Like in the snow, it's like one of the most euphoric experiences
Hmm, but you don't even feel like the how much acid the cardio effect. Is it like a full? I don't know
Yeah, I don't know anything about it
I've heard about people doing that with like like working out on mushrooms and they say it's cool
But I don't know I watched cross-league Mendota on mushrooms
That's frozen and it was obviously frozen.
But then it got really dark.
And we went all the way to the other side,
and then came back, and we're like, fuck.
And then we're just in pitch black.
I did a similar thing.
Yeah.
Mendota's fun on a clear sky, too.
You have a bunch of sunsets.
Yeah.
It's pretty good.
But that was not a mistake, but it was definitely like, whoa.
It's pitch black now.
We're on a lake on mushrooms.
How do you feel about the Vikings?
See, McCarthy just gave me a shit for this,
because look, I'll be the first to admit,
I'm not like a live tweeter of any of the games.
But you retweet?
I retweet, but I don't, my take, you know,
my sports knowledge is, you know,
I'm not gonna pretend like it's great,
but my biggest thing is I love just watching the Vikings.
It's the one sport I can follow from Minnesota,
besides hockey here and there. It's just once a week
So I'll watch every game and I'm you know, but I don't add like if there's a new McCarthy give you shit
I like I enjoy watching every game and like, you know make but it's not like
Where I'm following who they're who they got in the draft coming up and who they got, you know
I mean, I'm not that that in deep
but I love watching the Vikings play
and it's been a very enjoyable season.
And I don't know about the Rams though.
It's not great that the last game, brutal.
And I don't know if Darnold just, he just was nervous.
I don't know how he had the worst game of the season then.
And then-
I think they just played good defense.
Yeah, but I don't know.
I mean, you guys know better than I would,
but I feel like Jefferson too had some passes there
that he could have caught that he dropped.
It didn't look like a great team.
And then the Rams.
I think a lot of people are taking the Rams.
All the team that beat us at home, too, against them.
I don't know.
But that's, but again, that's for a Minnesota sports fan,
Vikings fan, they've given us a lot this season.
So I think everyone's pretty content with that.
What, do you have another restaurant coming?
Pop-up?
Again?
This summer?
No?
Depends on.
I won't do it for the whole summer again, because it was fun.
But also just the most stressful summer.
I did two summers back to back.
The one where I was working in France while I moved here.
And then this last one, where this summer I kind of want
to enjoy.
So I might do a shorter term, just a quick grab and go.
Would you ever try to get in food truck game? Yeah for fun I want to do something maybe potentially
next year with like the college football show on campus doing if we do like a tailgating and just
have a food truck there while we do our live shows and I can just be looking for everyone so
that's the idea I've been kicking around hopefully that I think that'll work right if we're on campus
already. That's a great idea. Yeah just cooking food would be fun but no big pop- hopefully, I think that'll work right if we're on campus already. That's a great idea. Yeah, just cooking food.
Love that.
It'll be fun.
But no big pop-up, but I think I'll do something
in the spring that's like maybe a one or two,
one or two what, day event.
Okay.
What's the clock?
You guys are just bringing someone else in for a.
Yeah, you can pick anybody you'd like.
You talking about his feet or no?
Oh no.
TJ don't do anything fucky.
Oh man.
Let's not then, let's not do it. Don't do anything fucky. Yeah. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, My gift was a size 9 golf shoe and I was like, anyone a size 9? And Donnie was like, yeah.
And I was like, there's no way you're a size 9.
I am.
Over here.
Down here.
And I saw Nick retweeted some kid put someone edited it.
No, I did.
Did I do that?
You retweeted it, yeah.
I meant to like it.
It was me walking back to the kitchen.
It's just squeaky feet the whole time.
It's just little mouse feet.
Oh, no.
And then the story is your brother's eight years younger than you, gave you hand-me-downs?
There's hockey skates, but yeah, still.
I'm glad you found a community online.
There's a whole Reddit page.
What is it?
R slash what?
I don't know what the actual R backslash was, but I looked it up on that Christmas exchange.
But there's a lot of benefits, they say.
I saw you Googling benefits to small
There are benefits it was like cheaper shoes. No no no you can it's quieter movement
Spy community and
Climbing which I enjoy climbing pretty good at climbing so it makes sense you can climb better with small feet
And I'll take that as a win you know unless they're too small
Yeah, well, I think I have the perfect size okay. I maybe ten double digits would be nice
But you know I'm still growing look at them. I think I'm on camera
Look, I'll borrow. You know what I've never done the gauntlet so maybe someday. I'll put on like size 20
She never done the gauntlet no I haven't I haven't but can't believe that well
We're here every single I'll put big old shoes on someday
Are you prepared right now? I can do it. Oh, no. Oh, dude. Look at that look look at you next to Titus. Oh my god
There's gotta be something
Oh, no, Shane! There's a soul!
That's so sad, it's tripping me out!
That's pretty funny, I don't know how you did that, TJ.
TJ, good work!
Great work!
Tiny little guys.
Look at that guy.
Alright, I'll grab someone with bigger feet.
So, anybody?
So, Jerry?
Oh, thanks, guys. It's literally the only thing he has. Okay, so anybody so Jerry
It's literally the only thing he has that's all yeah, that's the reason why yeah the guys got it all we have to bring it Up every time it's the only way to ever get back down to earth
I bet you when he takes him his socks if they're perfect though. Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Oh, hell.
Oh, man.
Shit.
Do we want to talk case rates?
Yeah, sure.
I had a meeting with the graphics team yesterday about it.
Whoa.
They're excited, so.
They're about to break ground on it, right?
Well, we need to give them more details.
So I'm thinking we need to give them, like, number of teams, team captains, maybe off
camera we could talk themes so that they can make, like, intro videos, and that could be
a surprise to the audience
But we need like the format essentially what what day do we want to do it?
We want to do the 29th or the 30th. Yeah, we need to know like who what guests are joining to I think
alright, so tomorrow I'll have a
Just will be I'll have a better
Understand I would like will to participate
So, let me let me we'll talk to will tomorrow about it and then I'll have a better understanding. I would like Will to participate.
So let me talk to Will tomorrow about it.
And then, so wait, number of teams?
Someone said we should just do birthday boys, right?
So that'd be four captains.
Yeah.
KB, you, PFT, is he down to do it?
Yeah.
And Che.
Four captains, how many people?
Winning team gets the birthday.
Three people a team so 12 total 12 total
Okay, and I think we do the thing. I was saying where it's like we figure out the
Whatever the amount is where it's like first
30 minutes has to be 10 beers, and then it goes up from there. I like that
Yeah, yeah you so you could stay in and theoretically forever as long as you keep drinking
But once you lose that cutoff, you're out.
You're out.
OK.
OK.
And that way, 30 minutes is like,
at least we'll have everyone here for 30 minutes.
And I think people would be able to drink 10 beers.
I think the first year's.
We should set a finish line of 40, right?
You're drinking.
Oh, yeah, we could.
Well, that's just a case race.
I think it's just, it's last team standing wins.
It's last team standing.
It keeps getting, like, you go 30 go 30 minutes 10 beers and then it's like
Can I pitch 40 minutes 15 beers and then 50 minutes 20 beers so it gets it ramps up. I really want Dana back. Yeah
He'll come for sure. Did you see that video of Francis? No. Oh that was
I mean Francis Dana's series is one of my favorite series. one of the best clips of all time came from
I'm surprised Dana is in LA right now. Yeah. Oh, yeah, Dana beer called Dana. Oh
Here it is yeah, all right. Yeah, so if it's right here you good
I don't believe it. I don't believe that that really happened the snap of the leg
you heard it crumble I love France you can't be real you can't be serious
They're like you laid there for ten seconds. I'm just gonna live here
Have you ever seen the video of him catching the foul ball? No, Eddie. Yeah, it's great one of the best videos
Wait, yeah, I want to see that foul ball video
So much that series they do is
The perfect do yeah, they really are.
Tate, hello?
What's up, guys?
Donnie said come in here.
Tate.
What size shoe?
10 and 1.5.
Welcome.
Thank you.
Tate, I am thinking I'm not.
I'm thinking about doing a game of the year.
I'm in Ohio State.
Ooh.
On our behalf.
Yes.
I can't get there all the way yet, but
Do you feel confident? So I feel confident, but I'm a homer, you know Big T
Yeah, Big T just told me that he is placing the largest wager he's ever made
Oh, Ohio State. This doesn't give you pause at all. Yeah, it's it's the number one problem is that fat pigs get slaughtered
Yeah, right, but
Come in Big T. Yeah. Those are two.
Those are big cat and big two pigs right there. I just think that we I don't think it's adjusted
for how good Ohio State has been the last two weeks and like yeah I know you shouldn't just
base it on two weeks but like that is what they are right now. That's who they are yeah. Texas
in Dallas is the only thing I can tell you but it is a snowstorm. You guys travel. Yeah, 100%.
How jealous were you that Gruden got to interview Tressel?
Did you see what happened?
No.
May I tell you?
Yes.
So Malaszek texts me, and he goes,
can I have Gruden read your potential punishment list
and then let Coach Tressel pick the finalist?
Coach Tressel raised me. My mother is the biggest Coach Tressel fan in the world. Coach Tressel raised me. He is, my mother
is the biggest Coach Tressel fan in the world. I've read his book, The Winner's Manual. I
taught his book. Coach Tressel is the best. Taught his book? What'd you teach his book?
I'm sorry, Urban Winners, whatever. What's that? Nothing, nevermind. Oh, sorry. But huge
Coach Tressel fan in our family. Sweater vest when I coached a little bit. It was great.
So I was honored to be, to let him choose.
If you watch the clip, Gruden reads my options
and goes, these are kind of lame.
Why don't you come up with one?
Don't be afraid to make it a little evil.
And so Tressel goes, okay,
here's what Ohio State has to do.
If they lose, he has to walk from Dallas to Houston on foot, which is 250 miles.
Why Dallas to Houston?
Because he said that's where Texas's hotbed of recruits are.
Oh my God.
Big Cat, he did say, if I do complete it, Gruden and Trestle will be waiting for me to have dinner.
Oh.
After that.
So how long would 250 miles take?
What, like seven days?
We put it in the, yeah, it's like 91 hours.
But that's like on the highway.
I don't like this.
And I told you why.
I have a fear that you actually might be cheering for Texas
in this game.
No, no.
Because you're going to launch Tate after dark with this thing and waiting for you at
the end is a dinner with Jim Trestle.
I will say that the man that raised you.
I'm worried that you're going to be.
I mean this would be an incredible stream.
Time out.
No.
It would be the best.
I'm worried that would be the best
Behind you timeout Cory and
Stefan have both and Lucas have all tried to call me into meetings about
This and I said I'm not talking about this and they've confirmed that it will be the first like that's what I'm saying
This is gonna be the debut of the new show. You're gonna eat dinner with Jim Tressel
Yeah, exactly, but I don't want exactly I don't want to
Be sure for Texas no no we gotta make this tape so you know what you're doing. What was the 91 miles?
What's the pace or 91 hours it was I think you go four miles an hour, right? Yes. Yeah
Yeah, it's kind of booking it that is a little bit. I think you you you remodeled for you
Yeah, it's 91 consecutive hours of walking to know. Yeah. I think you you you remodeled for you. Yes, 91 consecutive hours of walking to know
Yeah, I think you can't free you don't do that. You're gonna have to take rest my map say
Avoiding busy road would be 300 and 707 miles which would be six days and 12 hours of walking
Not counting would you jog? Is that okay? I gotta talk to coach. Yeah. Oh, I think jogging absolutely should count. You should be able to jog. Yeah, I gotta talk to coach. Whatever
coach says jump, I say hell hi. So trust listen, man, we interviewed him like in 2016, 17.
We just talked to him about punts for like 30 minutes. He's awesome. He loves punts.
He's a yeah, there are two people that if they ever make their way in this office, I
will use my big cat. Can I say say hello Urban and Jim Trestle.
Okay.
I mean he is sweater vest is iconic.
I'll do it in sweater vest too he's the best.
Alright so you're rooting for Texas?
No.
Oh.
Nope.
I mean this is incredible.
Yeah so your punishment is exercise then dinner with idol.
Yeah maybe uh.
And thousands of people watching.
And thousands of people yeah tons of attention and your your career explodes
Well something interesting about that is so my girlfriend now has the power to veto these punishments
I gave her that power she used it on
Oh, she has one she gets to veto yes, and so she used it cuz PBR
And I were talking there's a Chicago event Saturday night. I was gonna ride a bull
I didn't know did you know that's like the worst thing ever?
What, did you get fucking died?
I didn't, I honestly just didn't know that.
You're stomped on by a bull?
I didn't know, she used her veto on that.
And then she saw the clip this morning
and she's trying to use her veto on this.
This is not, no chance.
But like, you're gonna be gone for two weeks minimum.
And like, you're not just gonna like leave me on the side of the road, right?
Like I like no
No, there'll be a car going behind you. Yeah, that's okay. And then you'll stop at hotels. I assume right and yeah
That's what I thought. I gotta run it. I think you gotta run it. You gotta run a little bit
I mean you'll get so bored walking. That is a horrible. That's like 12 days of walking. Oh my god gotta win
What if you could take Healy's?
I don't know how many probably make it worse. Yeah, they'll make it a lot worse. I thought you could Healy much of that
Just go downhill the whole time. Oh, that's not a bad idea
Yeah, that's true straight down
Alright so Yeah, this game's going to be big tomorrow.
I'm excited.
Who's all going to the stream?
Tomorrow, I think it's Tate, Big Ev, and Gruden.
We have Texas people?
Are you coming?
You said Final Four.
I don't want the numbers to be skewed.
Oh, yeah.
We don't have Texas people.
I don't think we have Texas people.
Who cares?
We need Compton, Gruden. We should call McConaughey, Thressel, get Matthew McConaughey in here
yeah we should have McConaughey here hey dude I know it's cool to go to a
fucking stand on the sideline and high five everyone after a touchdown but have you ever
sitting between have you ever been in a camp? Have you ever had lasagna with Frank the Tank?
yeah pretty fucking good. Is Frank coming tomorrow? I believe so. Tomorrow? I believe so. Why? I love Frank, obviously, but I've never...
Word's making its way around the office that these are officially Frank's dreams. No, they're
not. Okay. Oh, he's not coming tonight? No, he is. Because he's in Notre Dame now. Oh,
but you meant... Oh, he's coming... Is he going to come back tomorrow? He's coming to
Ohio State. Frank is doing tonight, tomorrow, and I believe we have him on Sunday early game, okay?
I just know that myself I have the ability to lose control
It's something I truly care about that's what we want on this, but I can't do it to Frank
Even already gonna do this he takes it in strength Stephen's done it yeah
You know no I'm saying I'm the clip TJ like I will shut the fuck up, okay?
Steven KFC
Kick them yeah, and then Stu Stu fighter thought it was me. Oh Frank handles that really well
He does who's gonna be the Buckeye antagonist then if everybody's betting on Ohio State everybody's cheering for our state
You're gonna be fine. I need Dan to place his bet of the year, so he lays off me from behind
I'm gonna if I do get of the year, I'm gonna
It's gonna be fine, everybody everybody's gonna be in lockstep
Even everybody's either gonna be a Buckeye fan or a Buckeye better
Jack McCarthy asked us to bring in some Ohio steak here cuz he's making a game of the year. Oh
Yeah, you can't do that now
You're always optimistic though. Have you ever been pessimistic before a game? No, I feel I really feel great about this. Yeah. I'm extremely pessimistic.
And I've been and I still think we'll win. Since I've been like I was born in 1983.
It's over. We don't need to play it. Like we've been good my whole life.
Like Jim Tressel was like when I was 10 years old. And then from then,
have you ever had a losing season in your life? My freshman year of college was the year that Tressel got just the worst punishment in the
history of college football because of tattoos.
And we had Luke Fickle as our interim coach.
We went six and seven and I said, we're never going to do that again.
I went out and I got Urban Meyer.
Wow, good work. I'm a national champion
Frank shut the fuck up
Here look at the hair moving about
Teddy Bridgewater I want to be in the playoffs! I don't care! The match is in the playoffs!
The Devils is in the playoffs!
I haven't seen a playoff win in 40 fucking years!
Shut up!
This is a great fucking hour!
Alright, I feel fine.
Yeah, that's what we want.
That was an iconic moment.
That was the one time Che has ever broke.
I know.
True anger. Shut the fuck up! Iconic moment that was the one time che has ever broke. I know you were shaking true. Yeah, I'm true anger
I was really mad there was we go in for those reactions and the Bucks just scored a
Touchdown to win the division and the Dolphins were on commercial break and we're down 14 points
That's like all right, dude. Shut up for like one minute that first hair flip was amazing
Like Frank you play one more time for me bounce the co-op hair bounces the first bounce

I've had some.
I've had some. I've had some. I've had Seinfeld would be a good one, I think.
I think that would be a fun one.
Then you'd probably be talking about him.
Here's one from the wrestling world.
The guy just turned 81, and I was thinking about him because he was out on the stage
with Hulk Hogan the other day.
Jimmy Malfoy South Hart is actually a very interesting guy.
Yeah, what do you know about him?
Do you know that he was a rock star?
Huh.
Like a musician.
He was in a band called the Dgentries, which had a top five hit, I Keep On Dancing, in
1965.
Wow.
So this guy was a legitimate rock star. The Gentries at one time
opened for Elvis in a concert. So it's like this guy was like a legitimate like
like the 60s like pre Beatles like flip over to the late 60s. It's kind of like
the Beatles like I Hold Your Hand type vibe. Yeah. Yeah. Like surfer like dance like dance music
of the early 60s and the Gentries had a top five hit. I Keep On Dancing and Jimmy the
mouth of the south heart was in this band as the lead singer. No. I had no idea. And
then he like became like when he was like in the WWF there he wrote a lot of the songs. And so he's like a legitimate musician
who transitioned completely into a character in wrestling.
That would be an interesting walks.
Interesting.
Yeah.
Actor-wise, you know who I like that is a really good actor?
Paul Giamatti.
Oh my god
Yes, his father was not alone. His father was commissioner of baseball for six months. Mmm, what six months?
March
1st is September 1st 1989 Wow, he oversaw the whole Pete Rose affair and I think one of the reasons why Pete Rose
There's so much resistance to get people's back into Hall of Fame is
Roger Imani
Suffered a massive heart attack and died six months into his terms commission
And so it's like he never even got a chance to be commissioner because the whole his whole six months was the Pete Rose affair
Rose the Pete Rose suspension came down where he
got kicked out of baseball and like about maybe a week a little bit over a week later.
Heart attack. Yeah that heart attack. Damn. Wow. By the way congrats on Soto. Yeah thanks. We'll
see what the Mets do the rest of the off season.alanzos, I think Peter Lanzos fucking himself at this point. Yeah, he's got to push Boris aside and say I'll take the
three-year's deal or or he's gonna end up with one of these
last minute contracts signed at the end of spring training where he's playing one year and
betting on himself and yeah, he bet on himself once and he's already come out craps
because he turned down seven years in a contract
that he's not gonna even come close to seeing anymore
because his bat speed was bad this year.
He's slightly below average fielder
and the Mets attitude is okay, if you don't wanna be here,
if you don't wanna sign our contract,
we can replace you.
And I think the Mets can replace him.
Yeah, he seems pretty fired up about Soto, then.
Soto is the type of hitter I like.
Yeah.
How could you not?
Same.
He's not just a home run hitter.
He's a consistent 290, 280 hitter his whole career.
And he's got that 900 OPS where he he's on base.
He walks. He does everything. Good player. Very good player. Yeah. All right. T.J. Should
we spin the wheel? We hit all the ads. Oh, yes. Oh, Oh
I miss them. Oh did you call him about oh no I did
Just take a look
Lights out there bring a case of beer to that fire. Get it going.
All right, yeah, let's spin the wheel.
