I was at the live podcast last night.
Oh, shit.

Mm-hmm.
And then Frank the Tank.
And we have a great show for you.
I'm going to tweet it out right now.
You guys say something real quick.
Do the Roman read.
Do the Roman read.
Most guys have tried different ways to last longer in bed,
but thinking about Pat's giant nut doesn't always work.
The folks at Roman, an online men's health company,
are changing the game with Roman Swipes,
the secret to longer-lasting sex. They're effective, easy to use, and fast-acting,
but don't require a prescription.
Roman can ship swipes to you in discreet, unmarked packaging,
and each swipes packet is small enough to hide in your wallet for whenever you need it.
They're super easy to use.
Just take the swipes out of the pocket, swipe it on, let it dry, and you're good to go.
That's it.

Oh.
It's like a natural Adderall.
It really helps you concentrate.
Oh, bonus.
Gives you that caffeine boost without the jitters.
So, yeah, there's a little bonus ad read.
Bonus.
Frank, what's up?
Oh, I'm going through hell trying to move.
Oh, no.
Moving is the worst.
Oh.
I moved two big crates of baseball cards yesterday, and I almost threw out my back.
Whoa.
Take a sip of water.
We got to make sure.
We have barstool bites here, which we'll talk about in a minute.
But we've got a little, like, you know, you get your chicken throat.
You get your hot dog throat.
Yeah.
It's bad for the listeners.
So you're going to move all the stuff that you have.
You're not going to throw out any of the old memorabilia?
No.
I might put stuff in my storage unit.
And, of course, I saw Roy Schreider come and say,
I'm going to need a bigger storage unit.
Because my storage unit is pretty much already jam-packed full.
Have you thought about selling any of this stuff?
It's crossed my mind.
Yeah?
Well, how much do you think you'd get for it, Jerry?
Pose for the picture I'm going to put on.
What about the butter soda, Frank?
Is that going to make the move?
I don't have any more butter soda, fortunately.
Okay.
That was, yeah.
Although I have two bottles of pumpkin pie soda.
Ooh.
Ugh. That sounds pretty good, Frank. That does not sound good, Jerry. I'm a pumpkin guy. bottles of pumpkin pie soda.
That sounds pretty good, Frank.
It does not sound good, Jerry.
I'm a pumpkin guy.
I like pumpkin pie.
I like pumpkin too.
If you want one of the bottles, I'll bring it in for you next week.
Yeah, I'd love it. There you go.
Well, you don't even have to bring it in.
We're neighbors now.
Oh, yeah, sure.
So Jerry and Frank are neighbors, like literally same block?
Pretty much, yeah.
So Frank lives, I'd say.
Don't say the address. No, I'd say
last time Jerry was on, or
a couple months ago, Jerry just said his entire
credit card information.
I heard about that. Yeah, well, I didn't
think we were on live.
Even though it is very live
and it's always live. Yeah, but I'd say
me and Frank, if my house
is here, Frank's house is the golf ball over
there, that big giant over there. What?
That big giant golf ball, yeah.
That close?
It's really close.
Very close. It's close.
It's a block or two.
Not even a block, Frank, because I'm right behind the Super Super Fresh.
I'm behind that.
I'm in front of the Super Super.
That block, right back.
Yeah, I know where your street is.
Are you guys going to be commuting? Yeah, we'll commute together. Nice. That's nice. Yeah, I know where your street is. Are you guys going to be commuting?
Yeah, we'll commute together.
Nice.
Well, that's nice.
Devil's Games, right, Frank?
Oh, yeah, Devil's Games.
I have two tickets to every Devil's Games.
So I know sometimes I'll be bringing Dougs with me whenever he's up,
wherever he finds a place here.
I'll bring anyone with me that wants to go to different games uh i know i might invite someone here and there whatever days i'm gonna
go i know i'm actually going to miami over the weekend to go watch the dolphins oh hell yes
yes maybe get a win for frank and then are you staying in miami uh i'm gonna to be doing this, going to SeaWorld or some sort of aquarium.
I've never actually seen a live dolphin.
Oh, shit.
So I want to see a live dolphin and, I don't know, tap its head, shake its fin.
Yeah, why not?
Whatever you do, don't tap the clitoris.
That's actually how I learned what a clitoris was.
From a dolphin? Yeah, when I swam with the dolphins, I was only like 10, and they were like, don't tap the clitoris. That's actually how I learned what a clitoris was. From a dolphin?
Yeah, when I swam with the dolphins, I was only like 10,
and they were like, don't touch the clit.
And I was like, what is a clitoris?
Yeah, you don't have to tell us that.
We just won't do that.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's like one of those ones, like,
I wasn't even thinking about touching the clit,
but now what's going on here?
Yeah, they're like, you'll start something
that you won't be able to stop.
Jesus Christ. It's very ominous able to stop dolphins do like i think they're i read this story once this dude who fucked a dolphin
and like wow he like stopped fucking it and it was like the dolphin like gets like human feelings
yeah and have you ever seen a photo of a dolphin pussy it actually looks very appealing i don't
want to it's very clean to see what it looks like. You would? Yeah.
It looks like a freshly Brazilian
waxed human vagina.
Jerry, tell the story.
Steven, you'll like this
story. Jerry told us a story last night
about in middle school.
You want to tell them?
So pretty much last night
needed James
Harden. We needed a double-double.
So we needed 10 points, at least 10 points, 10 assists, or whatever, rebounds.
He had the 10 assists.
He was just chucking up threes.
You know what I mean?
He finally hit it.
But the one before he hit it, I was complaining, saying that when I was in middle school, my middle school basketball coach, he brought us on a trip to where the Nets play, and I hit a three.
You know what I mean?
So I could hit a three in that game.
If you put me in that game, I'd be able to hit an open three.
And he was missing a few of them.
I totally understand.
I think everyone as a fan has been there like, hey, if I'm wide open,
how are you missing this?
It's harder said than done. Especially especially have you ever shot in an arena like not like a gymnasium but like an actual big arena the glass backboards the death perception is so
much different than like high school yeah i hit the three where the nets play oh okay okay okay
in brooklyn i mean feasibly if you get however many attempts, five attempts, you should be able to knock one down if you're wide open.
Now, you know what's even harder, they say, when they have the final fours at those domes.
Yeah.
Yes.
The dome?
The shooting background, yes.
Is very bad.
Yes.
Yes.
That is a fact.
Oh, Jerry also doubles on 12s, which is the craziest thing I've ever seen in my entire life.
Yeah.
Always double on a 12.
There's a lot more little cards than there are face cards in 10s.
So I'm actually going to look into that blackjack training I came up to you this morning,
and I told you I didn't get to watch the blackjack last night,
but my dream in high school for a career was to be a blackjack
dealer on a cruise ship so that was your dream yes like your your your your highest level of
employment was blackjack dealer on a cruise no that was what i aspired to be right yes and how
old were you 16 17 i like it that's that's those are dreams. I played blackjack in Atlantic City once.
Yeah?
And I played.
I had $100.
I put $100 in.
I played five hands.
Each hand, I had 12.
Each hand, I hit.
And each hand, I got a face card.
Really?
That's a fake Frank stat.
Because we did it last night.
That's a fake Frank stat. I'm calling right now. Fake Frank stat. Yeah, because we did it last night. That's a fake Frank stat. I'm calling right now.
Fake Frank stat. Yeah, because we did it last night.
He's got the smile.
Frankie Fibs.
Frank.
Come on. You're ruining my skin.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I love
fake Frank stats.
Frankie fake news.
Frankie Fibber.
Oh, man. Seven for nine yesterday and the double for twelve. It was crazy. Frankie Fake News. Frankie Fibber. Oh, man.
Seven for nine yesterday and the double for 12.
It was crazy.
It was wild.
I don't actually think that's a smart strategy, but God damn it, it was fun when it hit.
When the nines hit, it's fun.
It's a good-ass time.
And it was weird.
We weren't getting threes and fives.
We were getting nines.
Right.
Right.
It was incredible.
Incredible. Percentage-wise, you're likely to not get a ton. We were getting like threes and five. We were getting nines. Right. Right. It was incredible.
Incredible.
Percentage wise, you're likely to not get a ton.
Yeah.
But then, yeah, doubling means you only get one card.
So, yeah, you're stuck on whatever, 14 to 21.
You might get lucky and get an eight.
That's not a bad card either.
Yeah.
That's true.
Not a bad card. I don't know. Is it bad card either. Yeah. That's true. Not a bad card.
I don't know if it is.
Is it actually percentage wise?
Yeah.
Yeah, so four out of the, was it 14 or 15 cards are 10. Can hurt you.
So, yeah, will kill you.
Yeah.
So then, yeah, you're rocking with a 25 to 30% chance of.
Fuck, maybe it is smart.
God damn it.
But the thing is doubling, because doubling.
Right, you only get one card.
Yeah.
Right. Yeah. Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right.
What else is going on?
So, Donnie, how was Italy?
How's it being back?
It's great to be back.
I'm dropping my new series, Barstool Abroad the Balkans, every Wednesday at 7 p.m.
That's sick.
Dropped the first episode last night and then went to the live show.
The Yak Boys crushed it.
A lot of Yak fans in the audience. Yeah. Tell us about last night and then went to the live show the yak boys crushed it a lot of yak fans in the audience they they um yeah tell us about last night they when they started they the viva chant
like this one dude who was there with his girlfriend he starts going nuts like viva viva
and she like his girlfriend pats him on the back and she's like oh you always love when they do the
viva like she did she was a very supportive girlfriend uh there was a little
drama at first i had um i had asked twice to make sure that i was on the list for the show
okay and i was told twice that i i was on the list and then i showed up and was not on the list
had to talk my way in they're like well all right i guess like if you claim you work with these
people we'll let you sit in the back.
So yeah, it was a rough start to the show,
but the boys ended up calling me on stage.
Oh, both shows?
Both shows.
I went up to close out the show by singing Dragonfly Sinner,
my smash hit with Nick and KB,
and still Nick and KB refused to sing it with me.
That's bullshit. I even had KB in a chokehold holding his head up to the mic.
And he only has one lyric in the song and just refused to say the one word.
He's a very shy man.
Yeah, he is.
He's very shy.
So was the show good?
How long was the show?
Yeah, the show was great.
I think they did two shows back to back.
Each was like an hour.
Did they repeat any jokes?
A few.
Oh, no.
A few, but no one needs to know that except for me because I was at both shows.
Right, right, right.
A lot of females in attendance, actually.
Really?
Yeah.
And what was the style?
Was it just kind of riffing?
Yeah.
Shooting the shit?
Riffing.
They shat on Mark Wahlberg a lot.
I didn't appreciate that.
I think a lot of people in the crowd didn't appreciate that.
Made a couple Boston is racist jokes.
But yeah, and then they just shared some stories.
And yeah, it was kind of just like a podcast, but they had certain beats that I assume they, like, I assume they planned to hit,
right. But it was, it was, it was pretty free flowing. Um, SAS was on one. I can't believe SAS is still not of legal age to drink. That just blows my mind. Yes, that is true. Yeah.
It's true. Well, he's a very young, young man. Yeah. I would say, say um after the show they went to the green room and then um i was just like
walking back towards the green room and got like stuck with all the fans so i had to take most of
the photos um for them yeah i mean taking pictures is great with fans but like the fact that they
didn't and you did yeah they came out at the very end, but I got
wrapped up in that.
How did you get back and they didn't?
I was just walking back towards
the green room.
How did you get back here and they didn't?
I flew at 9.30.
I think they took a 2pm train.
Got it.
So they weren't even trying to get back in time for this show.
I guess not, no. Damn. They just needed
a day off. Hurtful. Hurtful.
Speaking of day off, I will not be here tomorrow.
I'm taking a day off. You know what was funny?
Speaking about photos,
two bad brands are not here to confirm this, but
one day, we were
both getting out of Penn Station
at the same time to come here. Who?
Brandon Walker. Yep.
And some guy walked past Brandon Walker and said, Frank, the tank! Can I take a picture? Brandon Walker. Yep. And some guy walked past Brandon Walker
and said, Frank, the tank.
Can I take a picture?
Brandon Walker's like standing there like,
What the fuck?
I'm not.
Yeah.
What?
Oh, yeah.
I'm taking tomorrow off.
Try to take Fridays off.
Try and take Fridays off.
First time we haven't had to travel
in a really long time.
Going to maybe do some sleeping.
Sounds good.
Are you going to take a walk?
Are you going down to Piscataway on Saturday?
I am not. I am not.
I have an extra ticket if you want it. Oh, TJ, you're gonna get
fucking smoked.
Wisconsin is playing
Rutgers on Saturday. No, this is
the first time we haven't had to
travel in like two months, so I'm gonna
try to actually
mellow out for a weekend and just chill out.
Yeah.
Hang out with the kids.
Yes, exactly.
Just hang out and, you know, watch football.
Sounds like a crazy weekend, isn't it?
Are you going Sunday?
Yeah, I'll be there Sunday.
Monday.
Monday, Jersey Jerry and I are going to Pittsburgh for Bears Steelers.
Yep.
It's going to be great.
It's always the Bears. Never been to Pittsburgh for Bears Steelers. Yep. It's going to be great. It's always the Bears.
Never been to Pittsburgh.
Great city.
Yeah, it's cool.
Blue collars.
The most blue collar city.
It's actually also beautiful.
The mountains, or not the mountains, the hills and the rivers.
They have that tram that goes up.
The bridges.
I didn't ride on that, but I saw it in the background.
And I love PNC Park, walking PNC Park.
They actually have a river walk inside of PNC Park.
Yep.
That's awesome.
It's beautiful.
It's a gorgeous, gorgeous city.
So very excited to go to the game on Monday.
Yeah, that's it.
I don't know why we got on me just telling my schedule, but that was my schedule.
Hey, at least you get a day off.
That's nice. Enjoy it. How was yesterday's show, at least you get a day off. That's nice.
Enjoy it.
How was yesterday's show, by the way?
It was good.
It was good.
Greer was in here.
Yeah, he was.
It seems like he'd be a solid radio personality.
Yeah.
Yeah, he was cool.
Oh, I do have a story that I'd like to share that Jersey Jerry told me yesterday in the
car that was quite something.
It was very remarkable.
You told me a couple stories, but this one I think I can say out loud.
I don't care.
OK, well, there's one that I'm not going to say a lot, but this one I think I can say out loud.
Jersey Jerry, his grandmother, when before she passed, gave Jerry a book of her recipes.
Italian unbelievable recipes.
Jerry,
this is his mom's mom,
Jerry
refuses to let his own mother
look at the book of recipes.
Jesus, Jerry.
Oh, crazy.
And he said that it's a weekly conversation
that his mom's like,
Jer, let me look at the recipes.
Let me look at the recipes, my mom's recipes.
And he says, nope, she gave it to me, not you.
I mean, do you even cook?
I do cook, yeah.
From it?
No, not from it.
No, that, I'll be honest,
I've never cooked from that recipe book.
So your mom would actually probably
put the recipes to good use.
The thing is this,
my mom, she's a very, very good cook.
Not like my nanny,
but she's a very, very good cook. And it gives my mom, she's a very, very good cook. Not like my nanny, but she's a very, very good cook.
And it gives my mom, how do I say this?
What's the word?
I want her to get better and better and closer and closer to how my nanny's food was.
Without help.
Without help, correct.
Wow.
This is a wild move.
I'm actually doing her the favor. Yeah, you're like motivating her to become a better chef on her own.
Exactly.
One day she'll get it.
One day.
Maybe not, actually.
I don't think.
I don't know.
No, it doesn't sound like you'll ever give her the recipe book.
No.
But, you know, I didn't really think about that.
I probably should make something from it.
She has one thing in there when she used to make
these zaples.
Never heard of it.
That's your thing, right?
You get the zaples.
Zaples are
so bad but so good at the same time.
She used to make them really
really good.
In the book,
the temperature
in my nanny's book is lower
than what my mom uses and every time my mom does it she she she always burns the dough really why
don't you help her out yeah so she's you know the temperature you watch her you just watch her do it
too hot and you're like in the back of your head, you're like, I know that's too hot, and you don't say anything.
Yeah, no.
You're crazy.
That's fucking crazy.
I mean, all the Italian festivals around us, they just specialize in those zappos, you know?
They're so good, Frank. You know, and if I see an Italian
festival and I go to one, I have to
get them.
But they're so bad.
Do you get the six or do you go for the 13?
Because they give you the extra one
for free if you buy a dozen.
If I have a couple people with me,
I'll get the 13. But if I'm by myself
or only one
person around, so I can only have... So I don't indulge in 13 of them.
I could eat 13.
You could eat 13 too, right?
Yes, I can.
It's just not good to eat 13.
No, it's bad.
So bad.
So bad.
All right, what else do we got going on?
Anyone got any thoughts they wanted to bring to the table?
Well, Frank, so you're from Naples, right?
Your family.
My great-grandparents are my father's mother's parents are from Naples.
Okay, because I was planning a trip to Naples to find the origins of the Fleming curse.
Do you think the curse started in Italy?
It could be from them.
I mean, they live in the foothills of Vesuvius.
Oh, Mount Vesuvius?
Yes.
Fucking A.
What's the actual Fleming curse?
What is that, Frank?
That my family has the worst fucking luck in the world.
All of our teams fucking suck.
But beyond that, trains, derailing trains, being delayed.
I was coming home from a Nets game last week,
and the train stopped because someone on a station ahead of where we were at
punched somebody and then tried to run and escape the police
by running down
the subway tracks
so they had to shut down
the entire line.
So I'm on a
rail car
that's like 800 degrees
because he turned off
all the air conditioning
and all the electricity.
Remember last week
when we were on the train?
We were coming here
and it just stopped
for like 10 minutes?
Yeah.
I don't like when they do that
They just stop
And they just sit there
That happens to me
At least twice a week
Just stop
I don't understand
That's because I was on the train
Probably
Because that's
That's the only time
It's happened to me
Fleming curse
I mean just look how I got famous
I was on a train
There was a back of a train
That derailed
And it stopped
And went back to
Seacock Station
So it sounds like the curse
Is kind of a blessing.
I always say that to Frank, and it kind of makes him pause where I'm like,
is it a curse if you have a dream job because of going viral on a news report?
I would just like to have, during this dream job,
to have one day one of my teams win the championship.
I think that that will happen.
I think the Mets will probably win one.
No, not the Mets.
The Mets are getting worse.
What about the Nets?
The Mets are in trouble, Frank.
Bad, right?
They're going to lose some prospects.
How? Why?
Because they have nobody actually running the team,
and they may not be able to get contracts out to people and
may not be able to protect people from the rule five draft.
Damn.
I'm sure you'll have a rational take on all this.
It really is like, and KFC just goes, oh, Uncle Stevie.
I trust Uncle Stevie.
I'm tired of hearing the word Uncle Stevie.
I want to see Uncle Stevie actually do something and not look like a total buffoon.
Yeah.
That's a fair request by you.
Yes, it is.
Fair request by you.
The fact that every one they interview not only turns down the Mets,
but act like they've just seen, like,
have you ever seen the old show, The Monsters,
where they walk into the Monsters' house and they go running out of there as fast as possible.
That's how everyone's acting when they interview at the Mets.
Maybe you should try, Frank.
Interview for the Mets?
Yeah.
That would be actually great.
Great content.
I would have us winning a championship within two years.
Guaranteed.
What?
Guaranteed.
Tell us the moves.
Give us the moves that Frank the Tank would have the Mets winning a championship within
two years.
Detailed moves, Frank.
Yes.
Detailed transactions.
First off, I'd resign Baez.
Okay.
Ooh.
Interesting.
I'd resign Stroman.
Okay.
I mean, guys who literally hate me. Yeah. But you can put it aside because you're a businessmanign Stroman. Okay. I mean, guys who literally hate me.
Yeah.
But you can put it aside because you're a businessman first.
Yes.
Okay.
Yes.
So those are two moves.
I'd want to add a third baseman.
I think I'd kick the tires on Bryant.
Chris Bryant?
Yes.
Okay.
Maybe sign him.
Let's throw him in there.
Yep.
I'd sign Marte.
Okay.
Starling Marte?
Yep.
I'd fast track Francisco Alvarez to the majors.
Okay.
So he's up.
Yep.
And then is that it?
And then boom.
World Series.
I'd look to add another pitcher or two.
Throw out a name.
Maybe a Scherzer?
Not Scherzer.
I don't think that's possible.
Why?
Robbie Ray.
Robbie Ray.
Okay.
So did Robbie Ray, he didn't win the Cy Young, did he?
Well, that's not known yet.
But he will probably, right?
He could.
Yeah.
So you'll just add Robbie Ray.
Robbie Ray, and I'd bring in a medical staff that's top notch.
Okay, good doctors.
What about your bullpen?
Are you going to add someone?
I'd look to add a couple arms.
Okay, add a couple arms.
Manager?
Manager.
I'd like someone who's not necessarily hooked on the analytics.
Right.
I'd actually try to consult someone like Leo Mazzoni,
even though I like Jeremy Heffernan as our pitching coach,
to bring back the old philosophy of instead of 75 pitches,
going back up to 125 pitches.
Stretch out my starting pitching staff.
That would be where I'd start.
I'd like to have a type of old school type manager
who only uses analytics to determine where to hit the ball
and who's pitching.
Got it.
And not to robotically every game.
Sounds good, Frank.
Sounds really good.
That I'd go back to
an old school philosophy where
you spray the ball around instead of
just trying to pull everything.
That I would want all my left handers
that I want all my left handers
as soon as they see someone go into the extreme
shift to slap the ball
down the door baseline.
To the point
including dropping bunts down the dirt baseline. I like that. To the point, including dropping bunts down,
the dirt baseline,
to the point where you do it so much
that they stop shifting
and you open up the holes again.
Yep.
I love it.
I like the old school philosophies
of hitting and running.
I'd want a speed guy
and I'd go up to Javier Baez.
He's kind of a speed guy.
I'd say, look at this.
Look.
Don't blow innings, but if there's two outs and you're on first,
I want you within the first or second pitch to try to steal second base.
We need to put everything that Frank just said with maybe like the Rudy soundtrack.
Oh, yeah.
This is, we just won a World Series.
I want old school baseball back.
Because I think if someone comes back and brings back the old school baseball,
they'd run circles around these frigging morons.
Yep.
Or robotic baseball guys.
And the fact is, and people wonder why baseball ratings are down.
Because you've taken the feeling out of the game.
You're right.
I want to see my pitchers pitch 125 pitches.
And if you stretch them out, they will be able to do it.
I mean, Nolan Ryan, he never had arm surgery.
The Braves pitching staff, they did that all the time.
Glavin and Maddox, they went 125 pitches.
Just babying the arm is actually counterproductive.
And I go up to Jacob DeGrom and say, you know, I like the fact you control 100 miles per hour,
but you know what? Tone it down a little bit.
Oh, wow.
So you're doing pitching coach, too, because you were just the owner a second ago,
but now you're pitching coach.
Yeah, okay.
Yes, I think you're overthrowing too much.
And then I go over to Noah Syndergaard, who I will definitely resign, and I'll tell him.
Okay.
Well, you didn't say that at the beginning, but yep.
And I tell him, look.
All right.
The reason why you're getting hurt so much is because you have too much muscle.
Just tone down the weights.
Tone down the weights. Tone down the weights.
Tone down the weights.
If you tone it down maybe just a fraction,
you'll have more durability.
Frank, didn't the Mets training staff,
didn't they mess up whatchamacallit more?
Yeah.
They hurt him actually, right?
He was in a tight, they went to the discount MRI center.
Yeah.
And he got stuck, right?
Didn't he get stuck?
His elbow kind of got in an uncomfortable position, and then he aggravated the injury more in the MRI tube.
Got it.
That's fucked up.
That's fucked up.
Hey, Che, did you write the sheet, right?
This is you?
I did, yes.
One of the questions, if the sun burns out or explodes, what should we do as a people?
What?
I mean, we wouldn't exist as a people.
Yeah, there's no surviving that.
You ever seen The Matrix?
Oh, yeah.
What does that have to do with the sun exploding?
They lived underground.
It's a good jumping off piece.
That will not work.
Yeah, no, I think even underground you're fucked if there's no sun.
No, if the sun explodes, it takes out the whole solar system.
When the sun explodes, and it will explode.
The sun didn't explode in the Matrix.
They scorched the sun.
The sun will explode one day.
It will take out.
Yeah, it will.
It will be right before Yeah, it will.
It will be right before the Mets clinch the World Series.
It will take out the top, the four closest planets.
Is that a fact?
That is a fact.
So, Mars?
Gone.
Earth?
Gone.
Venus?
Gone.
Mercury?
Mercury will be the first to go.
Damn.
Wow.
What about Uranus?
You mean Uranus?
Oh.
Frank, you got me.
Uranus will actually survive.
Okay. It'll just be a cold rock floating aimlessly out there like the Met's church.
He fixed the Met.
He fixed the Met.

Can you guys hold the fort down?
I want to take a piss because I went from interview to interview to this.
I'm going to take a piss.
Yeah.
All right, I'm going to take a piss and be right back.
All right.
You know, we have a place in Belleville that's a ghost kitchen that's on Courtland Street.
We don't want to talk about one of our competitors.
That's true.
But, you know, maybe one day they might adopt.
They might adopt Barstool Bites.
We could actually partner with them.
Yeah, yeah.
You know what?
They probably will be one of the kitchens making the food.
Let's bring that up, Frank.
I mean, it's quite a unique concept, these ghost kitchens.
Yeah.
Frank, are you a fan of truffles?
I've never really had a truffle.
I'm not.
I don't like them.
You think the taste is too strong?
Mm-hmm.
I had the chance to go truffle hunting for the first time.
And you actually go with dogs.
And you just walk around the woods, and they have to sniff it out.
Oh, wow.
Because a human can't smell it a human you'd just be digging randomly in the dirt for days but a trained dog
can sniff it out and so that that's what we did and then once you see him like scratch the ground
you just start to dig and pull them up how deep they're only like six inches maybe oh wow yeah
that's nothing yeah that's not bad at all those things can go for like if you get like a big rare
one they can go for like three hundred thousand dollars wow wow yeah i saw a uh there was a movie
that came out this year about a nicholas cage someone a truffle pig he had yeah truffle pig yes
yeah has anyone seen that movie?
I heard it was actually very good.
Pig, it was called.
I heard it involved bacon.
Okay, all right.
Spoiler alert.
Yep.
What do you put a truffle on?
Like pasta?
Yeah, pastas, truffled eggs.
But if you're at a restaurant and they come over and they're like,
hey, do you want some shaved truffles on your pasta?
First ask how much it costs because sometimes you'd be like, yeah,
I'll take some truffles, and then you get the bill,
and it's an extra $60 for just a couple shavings.
It's kind of like that caviar.
It's extremely expensive.
Yeah.
Are you a fan of caviar?
No.
I'm not really a seafood guy, especially with the fact I'm allergic to shellfish.
Yeah.
Do you like fish sticks?
Yes.
The only fish I eat comes in a yellow box with a fisherman on it.
That's a sad life to live, Frank.
What is that called again?
Is it Newman's?
Long John Silver's?
Oh, Long John Silver's.
No, that's a fast food chain.
Yeah.
I thought it was Newman's.
Gordon's Fisherman?
Gordon's Fisherman.
Yeah, now there used to be a chain called Arthur Treacher's Fish and Chips.
Yeah.
Got it.
Big Cat, I got to watch my first live handball game.
It was actually, like, one of the better spectator sports.
It's hilarious, but do you agree that, like, it doesn't look that hard?
No, like, I do agree that if we put our best basketball players
on a handball team, they could beat
a lot of these teams.
Soccer, we do that as a joke.
I do that as a troll. Soccer
is one of those sports that
if you aren't growing up
with it, if you aren't growing up at a very, very young
age playing soccer, you can't just be like,
oh yeah, LeBron would be a good soccer player.
Handball,
if you put all of our quarterbacks
on a handball court,
like Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen would
dominate handball. 100%.
Easily. Yeah. Right.
And I would too. Yeah.
Kyler Murray.
I mean, Kyler Murray would be... Dominate.
It would kill it. Yeah.
It involves all skills that you just learned. Yeah. It involves all like skills that you just learn, learn growing up.
Yeah.
It's essentially like dodgeball.
Like it's playing dodgeball as a kid, but with nets.
Yeah.
It's a lot.
It's a fun sport to watch.
Instead of when you're playing basketball, you got to aim and get it in this small little
hoop there.
You just got to chuck it at like a large.
I guess the hard part, Billy was explaining it because he played it was like there's,
you know, you can't just run next to the goal and throw it in there. No, there's like a large goal. I guess the hard part, Billy was explaining it because he played it, was like you can't just run next to the goal and throw it in there.
No, you've got to shoot from outside the three-point line.
Yeah, they can body you.
Yeah, but you can also jump towards the goal
and throw it while you're still in the air.
Right, right.
But, yeah, I just think it's a fun sport to watch, though,
even if it does look pretty easy. Yeah, yeah, I just think it's a fun sport to watch, though, even if it does look pretty easy.
Yeah, yeah.
Jerry, what do you think, Campbell?
I never played it.
Have you seen it?
I've never even seen it played.
Yeah, I mean, the Olympics are like the only chance to really watch it on TV.
You can push it down.
No, this one don't go down.
Yeah, it does.
You know what sport is fun in the Olympics?
Actually, the Winter Olympics.
And I think Barstool should come up with a team for it.
Curling.
Curling, yeah.
Pete loves curling.
Barstool's played it.
Yes, we have.
Pete, can we find the clip of Pete?
Yeah.
We've got to find that.
Did you play in that game?
I did.
No, I announced it.
You announced it?
You know what it was?
It was the Super Bowl in Minnesota, so we did Patriots versus Eagles.
Oh, okay, yeah.
I think Liz and I announced it.
It was Pete is, like, obsessed with curling, watches it.
It's probably his favorite sport.
He finally got a chance to go compete in it,
and he completely screwed up and looked like a fool.
And it was a fucking awesome moment.
Awesome, awesome moment.
I could picture PFT being good at curling.
Yeah?
Look, this is us playing curling.
Yeah, I mean, it's pretty much just shuffleboard.
It's shuffleboard on ice with brooms, more or less.
What does the broom do?
You can actually speed it up.
If you start to broom really hard, if you start to sweep really hard,
then it smooths the ice and the whatever, the stone, I think they call it.
Go to the end.
Go to the end.
Yeah, when he fucks up.
And then I got to meet the gold medal team that won,
and I got one of the guys to be like,
Pete, you suck at curling.
And that was...
That was him.
That was the big moment.
And you're supposed to release it.
If you don't release it...
And he just...
It's...
Yeah.
And he just fucked up so bad.
I could tell he was actually very upset about that.
Oh, he was very upset.
It's a lot to get
pete rattled and that rattled him to the core because he like hyped it up like curling was
his brand yeah it's his sport right right right that's why it's like very important to never uh
claim that you're good at anything here yeah because then people like prove it yeah which
actually i don't think I've seen you since.
I haven't.
Oh, since the swim.
I haven't seen you since the swim.
The last I saw you, I was waving you goodbye on the Brooklyn side of the East River.
Yeah.
And you then swam.
What happened in the middle?
Were the cops?
There was a moment where you had to pause.
Oh, no, as you went around the bridge. I went around the bridge and the current was about to like push me up against the bridge so i had to
reroute and go around the bridge yeah and it was impressive you were you were i know
swim very well i backed it up because i was i was talking too much on twitter about how i'm like
aquatic good swimmer yeah how i'm an aquatic mammal, but I backed it up. Thanks for motivating me.
It was awesome.
The main question afterwards was just like, why?
Why did you do that?
But I like to set a goal that I can achieve,
and I knew that was a goal I could achieve.
I'm not claiming to be able to pitch a baseball 90 miles an hour.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That was a shot at Jared.
That sucks. baseball 90 miles an hour you know yeah yeah that was a shot at jared that's yeah um speaking of being uh being an aquatic mammal i i got to try playing water polo with the croatian olympic team
that's that sport is to me is like low-key the hardest sport of all time because you basically
are just trying to drown each other and and and I know a little bit about water polo.
Croatia actually is one of the top nations in water polo.
Yeah, yeah.
They're incredible.
Their Olympic water polo team is a constant medal contender.
Now, I mean, I don't want to flex.
I think if we played within the office and had two teams of just like barstool employees i could i would be
one of the better players but water polo yes but if i had to play against anyone who like has
some experience in the slightest it's so hard because you gotta like when you throw it you
gotta propel yourself out of the water and then fucking wind up and and toss it and i just don't
have the lower or the upper body strength.
And you know, you cannot let your feet touch the bottom of the pool in water polo.
You have to.
Yeah.
You can only eat one hand.
Yeah.
Wow, I didn't know that.
That must be tough.
Yeah, you literally, it's a sport where you just try to drown each other.
Yeah, and yeah, you can get very physical.
So you can like, yeah, that happens. You can kind of physical so you can like yeah that that happens you can kind
of like not supposed to but if you happen to hold someone underwater the ref probably won't catch it
it's like when we went to stew's house and we played uh that game with the watermelon the
greased up watermelon that one basically was just drowning each other yeah yeah it was it was uh
it was quite the show quite to quite the game it was. It wasn't even for camera.
We just did it.
And I remember being like, why am I at 36 wrestling Billy football underwater?
This is not going to end well for me.
It was not good.
I don't have that strength anymore.
And there was a guy from the Detroit Lions there.
Yes, that's right.
And you roasted him to smithereens, and then he basically left.
What did you say to him, Frank?
He just started making Lions jokes
right in this guy's face.
He shows up.
I think he was on the practice squad.
I think he's still on the practice squad.
He might actually be on the roster.
He's actually on the roster now.
He's on the roster.
He's from Stu's hometown.
He's friends with Stu's kids.
He showed up.
Stu was like, hey, this guy, he's on the Lions.
Frank was in the pool, topless, and just started fucking, like, unloading the clip on his Lions jokes.
And the guy just sat there and took it, and then, like, five minutes later, he just got up and left.
Jerry, you know what my favorite Lions joke is?
Thanksgiving's for three things.
Food, family, and remembering the Detroit Lions actually still exist.
Brutal.
Brutal.
That's the kind of, and there's more of where that came from.
Oh, I believe it.
Yeah.
Oh, you believe it?
Oh, I do.
Oh, yeah.
It's the truth.
I remember when we arrived in Detroit for that Super Bowl bet,
and I rode past the Ford Field.
I said, boy, I could feel the sadness.
Yeah, yeah.
The MAAC championship.
It's a sad scene.
That old video that was reposted, one of my favorite videos ever done,
when I was drunk at the MAAC championship going around doing a man on the street,
which I don't think we can do anymore.
Like, I don't think I'd be able to do a man on the street.
Caleb just did one.
Yeah, he just did like a man on the street.
He was able to pull it off because I think it's different when you do it at like those big crowded events where it's like chaos.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I would like to see you get back in the saddle and do one.
But you're right.
I think there would be too many people that would be like, oh, Big Cat, what's up?
Yeah.
You'd have to do it somewhere really random. Yeah. I mean, I don't think i'm not saying like it'd be like crazy like oh i can't
go anywhere it's just yeah if i did if you watch the mac video if i went up to the exact same people
now there would be like a 90 chance that those people would know who i was because they're
college kids so and sports fans going home this christ, you're more than welcome to come. Oh, yeah?
You got to go abroad.
Anyone watched it?
No, I'm not a big planes guy.
When was your last time abroad?
I mean, you have traveled overseas, though.
Correct.
Yeah, in the past.
But you don't have, like, a big urge to do it again?
No.
I went to Paris, like, three years ago, I want to say.
Loved it.
Loved it.
Absolutely loved it.
Would you go to the World Cup if there was ever, like,
a brand trying to send, pardon my take there or something?
No, I don't think so.
Well, just wait, what, six years now?
Now are we getting it here?
Yeah.
Yeah.
North America.
I was in France for, so I guess it was 2018 that I was there.
I was in France when the World Cup was going on, when they won it.
I wasn't there when they won it, but I was there for, like, the semifinals and the games before that.
It was fucking awesome.
It was great.
Normandy was sick.
It was really cool to go to.
How about you, Frank?
Could you handle that flight to Europe?
You know, I've never been outside the United States.
Really?
Me either, Frank.
I have a blank.
Let's get the boys outside.
I have a blank passport. I mean, I figure one of these days? Me either, Frank. I have a blank. Let's get the boys outside. I have a blank passport.
I mean, I figure one of these days next year maybe.
I want to see the NHL Hall of Fame.
I've seen the other three Hall of Fames now.
A little underwhelmed by the NBA Hall of Fame until I drew the Basketball Hall of Fame.
Yeah.
I mean, I couldn't believe it's in a strip mall.
Canton's great.
Canton's awesome.
Yeah.
Canton is really awesome. i need to go to
cooperstown i've been once but i haven't been in a long time cooperstown i love cooperstown
yeah those places let's do it but that's not abroad but i do like i don't know how we got
to the hall of fame well no but you could well you went from like france to the toronto hall
of fame oh that's right, you could drive to Toronto.
That'd be a fun road trip.
You need a passport, though.
I have a passport.
Oh, you have a passport?
You've never been abroad?
Never been abroad. Look at you.
You're ready.
Yes, I'm ready.
You're always ready.
I'm ready, but just haven't done it yet.

What's wrong with
Yeah one or two episodes.
He's got a...
What's up, Tico?
You want to sit down?
I don't...
What's going on?
I don't get the type of people
that can just watch a show
over and over again.
Like,
Glennie Balls,
every, like, five months,
he's like,
it's time to re-watch
all of Entourage.
Yeah.

Do you fuck with Entourage, Tico?
Yeah.
No.

A lot of baseball players

Entourage was like
the first cool white guys.
No, no, no.
They were the first
cool white guys?
Yeah, they were,
I mean, they were doing,
you know, they were having fun
with their friends.
Okay, yeah.
Yeah, they were really

He's a liar.
Oh, really?
He owes a lot of people money.
Oh, wow.

I don't think we'd want it to be approved.
The optics.
The optics for KFC.

We're going to do like five more minutes.
It's up to you.
Okay.
I'm in here.
Let's go.
Yeah.
We got like five, six more minutes.
Okay.
Let's do it. Frank fixed the Mets. Oh, I'm in here. Let's go. Yeah, we got like five, six more minutes. Okay, let's do it.
Frank fixed the Mets.
Oh, yeah.
He did earlier.
He fixed them.
What were you going to say, Donnie?
Oh, I was wondering who Maxwell Queen is.
Maxo Cream.
Maxo Cream, yeah.
So Caleb just did an interview with him.
He was on the act.
He came in.
Oh, wow.
That's awesome.
Maxo Cream, he's a good friend of mine.
He's from southwest Houston. I'm from Mo City. We kind of got beef, wow. That's awesome. Max O'Kreem, he's a good friend of mine. He's from Southwest Houston. I'm from
Mo City. We kind of got beef.
You know, different neighborhoods.
Mo City is short for what?
Missouri City. That's where Travis Scott is from.
Me and Travis Scott went to the same high school.
That's pretty cool.
Is Missouri City in Texas?
Yeah, it's right next to Houston. I mean, it's in Houston.
It's a suburb of Houston.
A lot of people are moving to Texas.
Yeah, man.
A lot of people.
Really?
Yep.
Good housing, man.
A lot of jobs.
No state income tax.
Yep.
Yeah, exactly.
Huge houses.
It's the Joe Rogan effect.
Yeah, it's true.
Austin, Houston.
Houston's got too many.
I feel like when I was in Houston, I liked it, but I was just driving in a loop in a
highway, and I was just on these service roads the whole time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like those off roads.
Yeah.
I feel like I spent the entire week when I was on one of those.
I liked it, though.
We had a good time in Houston.
We went there.
Did you get some good food?
Yeah, we had good food, good times.
We were down there for the Super Bowl.
I actually really liked Houston.
Oh, okay.
Houston, I think, is the fattest city in the U.S.
Is that true?
Definitely, 100%.
How'd you get so skinny?
I mean, I eat like a 300-pound man, but I have high metabolism.
Oh, that's luck.
That's luck.
We got to go eat sometime, Frank.
I'm telling you.
Is that metabolism going, Frank?
Yeah, kicking into high gear.
What do they mean when they say everything is bigger in Texas?
Tico and Tank do a food review show?
I think that would be so funny, right?
That's Tico.
Tico, what do they mean when they say everything is bigger in Texas?
What does that mean?
The asses.
The asses.
Really?
Really.
The big asses in Texas.
Huge asses in Texas.
Huge asses.
Yes.
Well, if I'm not mistaken, Texas is the largest state in the lower 48.
I believe it.
Land size?
Yes.
Not population.
That's California.
No.
California is larger population, but land size, Texas is.
I think that checks out, Frank.
I think so.
Go ahead, Frank.
What else would it be?
It's got to be Texas.
California or Montana?
Big land.
Alaska.
Alaska's the biggest state.
Alaska's the biggest.
Yeah.
But that's not lower than 48.
Not lower than 48, yeah.
Frank put that caveat there.
That was smart.
Texas is a big-ass fucking state.
You know, it's a big-ass state.
And it's always like, everything's big in Texas.
Exactly.
