Welcome to part of my take presented by DraftKings best ball week is here. Download the Draftkings app use code take that's code take for all customers who enter the NFL best ball 15 million millionaire contest to get a bonus ticket and get a shot at being crowned one of two millionaires. It's best ball week only on draftkings. Today is Monday, July 8, and the boys are back in town.

We're back in town. I think we, I think we picked a decent week to take the vacation. Because the one thing that you have to always be on the lookout for the week of the 4 July is the, the Friday afternoon news dump.

Yeah.

And we didn't even get really one of those. No, it was like, Biden might not run for president.

I did. I don't, I don't want to get political, but I did that, that tweet. I don't know if you guys saw, I quote, tweet it the other day. Someone was like, it's telling that all these people who love politics have just never been through a coach being fired before. And it was the most apt analogy ever because it is. We're, we are. One of the things that I think we do better than anyone is we can tell you when a coach is on the hot seat, when he gets.

That sad look at the podium and.

They are literally doing the, like he's going to give up the offensive play calling just so he can coach the whole team.

Well, pretty much what, what's going on is the DNC is saying Joe Biden is our candidate.

Yeah. Yeah.

We have, we have a full vote of confidence in Joe Biden. Right.

So they're just, you know, doing all the moves. Everything's going to be fine. But we are back. It feels good to be back. What do you guys want to talk about? You guys want to talk about Brawny.

So we can talk? Ronnie, you want to do that right off the bat?

Let's fucking talk about Ronnie the dude. I don't know if you saw, but.

Brawny, biggest four points in NBA history.

Dude, he hit a layup in transition. Holy shit.

Yeah. And, and LeBron watching said, damn, that's tough.

This is great. I hope there's, I hope there's some Bengals fans that are tuning in for the first time. And, like, what is this? It's about brawny.

Yeah.

Podcast about brawny.

We're just a brawny James and Charlie woods podcast.

Can I say something about brawny? I really don't like the fact he's going by brawny.

Why not?

His name's LeBron James Junior. Just go, LeBron James junior. I don't like calling. Like it's even in the box words. Yeah. B. James.

Yeah, I don't like that, bro. I agree.

Name is Lebron James Junior.

I wasn't sure where you're going until he told me the box score thing. Yeah, that's weird.

It's annoying.

It should just be. Just go by junior.

And also, it would be cool if he ever got in a game. And it was L James and L James Junior right next to each other.

Remember when he wouldn't. He said he wouldn't wear his dad's number because he doesn't want people to know who he is.

Yeah. Now he's just. They're doing so.

That's probably why he doesn't want people to. Maybe he'll think that he's not James. His name's Brawny. Not.

He's there now. They're just literally doing 69 now.

He's a guy that would just go out there and you'd be like, wife. That guy on the team, is he like LeBron James son or something?

Yeah, no, that's brawny.

Just go. It's brawny. Yeah, it's. Couldn't. Can't be a. They should do the brazilian method and just go, LeBron Nino.

Yeah. Oh, I like that. Yeah, I. I gotta take about Bronny. I actually kind of am addicted to how mad Bronnie's making everyone well, because it's like, the updates on ESPN are like, brawny. Brawny has a transition layup. Brawny has an assist. Watch LeBron James Juniore. Oh, it's not. Watch brawny. Watch LeBron react to Brawny's two points.

It's an ecosystem, and everyone's getting so mad.

And it's very funny because I, like, this is how I consume sports. Like, I also was like, this is ridiculous by LeBron. It's a very egotistical play. Yeah, it's cool. They're playing together. And then as soon as everyone got very upset, I was like, actually, I kind of like this because it's a fucking NBA summer league, and they know what they're doing.

How do they do all star voting? Is there a fan vote?

Yeah.

So what we should do next year is just, we should try to get. Try to get Bronnie into the all star game.

Yeah. People getting mad about his contract. Yeah, it's great.

Well, full guaranteed.

Well, that was a big time ball, knowers. And I did not know ball until I looked it up. But that is also part of the new CBA, so. The new CBA has different contracts for second round guys. Tyler Kohlik, who is a nick, went to Marquette. Also very funny. When Josh Hart. Celtic. What?

Tyler Kohlik from Arquette. Who'd you think he was thinking?

Sam Houser.

You're not.

Everything's about you. Hank.

The other white guy. Yeah.

That was crazy.

We talking. We're talking Celtics.

Are you thinking of Bailey Sherman?

Yep.

Yep.

Yeah.

Just another big east guy.

White big east guy, different player.

Okay, we're back.

Anyway, Tyler colicous, there was like, a fake Twitter troll, started a rumor that Tyler Cola couldn't read. This happened last year during, during Big east play, and Josh Hart, on his podcast with Jalen Brunson was like, it, can he read? He, like, I legit was like, I don't know if he can read or not.

Yeah. So every time somebody gets ball sacked out there.

Yeah.

There's always, like, 5% people that never realized that it was a joke.

Right. They just keep going around with it. Right. So anyway, Tyler colicous did break the record for, I think, most money for a second round pick. So he got, what was his exact contract? He had guaranteed money, 6.6 million. So brawny probably didn't deserve a non two way contract. But the new CBA does have very different contracts for second round picks. So people were like, this guy five years ago got paid for blueberries, and brawny gets 7.9 million. That is partially the new CBA. I do. I don't hate. Maybe I will become a Bronnie Stan. I don't know.

I think that maybe LeBron pulled this move just so he can write $2 million out of his son's inheritance.

Yes.

He's like, that's just 2 million less than I. You're getting this upfront.

Yeah. Well, there was, there was the bra. LeBron took $3 million less than the actual max he could have had. He did do that, like, oh, he was just stashing away for Bronny.

But, but I also think that in his, in his new contract, if he gets traded, he gets, like, an extra kicker that goes in. He does have a no trade clause, but he can accept a trade. And then I think he would make, like, $3 million.

Yeah, he's, he said he'd take less. He then took the max, or $3 million less than the max bronze sexuals are saying. Well, he said he'd take less for the right free agent, which then boxes them in the corner. No free agent in the right mind wants to go to whatever this iteration of the Lakers are going to be.

Yeah. Demar Derozan didn't.

Yeah. He was signing trade.

He was sign and trade, but he was probably the last good player that was out there.

Yeah, well, he will. Yeah. He wanted Clay Valentine's, and they got nothing yet. Demar DeRozan is now a Sacramento king, and the Bulls, yet again, mistimed an asset, but they're kind of on the right direction. Of trying to be bad.

Well, Demarted Rosen. He wanted to leave the Bulls after the Josh giddy trade. After the Caruso, forget he trade. Somewhat similar to our rule that we have in our dingers only league, where he's like, I'm allowed to exit this team.

I must say that it's. The NBA did investigate. I don't want to defend Josh giddy, but he's a bull now.

They didn't mind anything. The first, when big cat told me that he jumped on just to talk about the Josh giddy trade, the only thing I could think of was Caruso for giddy is a real life version of pervert or italian.

Oh, man. And I love Alex Crusoe. Yeah. The bulls, Demar DeRozan's gone. They're trying. They're trying to blow it up. They mistimed everything.

I saw crazy Demar DeRozan stat.

Okay.

And I didn't verify it. I didn't look it up to see if it's true.

Those are the best stats.

I think he's scored almost as many points as Steph Curry.

Okay.

In his entire career.

Let's find out.

Let's find out.

All right.

I saw that.

I was like, whoa, career points.

That's. That real. I'll just talk to the boys.

Okay. He has. Yes, 23,500 h. I mean, he's played longer, and he's, he's played a lot, a lot of games.

And he was the number one option on not.

Yeah, he's scored. He is scored 150 less than Seth Curry.

That's pretty cool.

That is pretty cool. And he's done it the hard way.

Yep.

With twos, not threes.

Yep. That's right.

The showboating.

Old fashioned.

Or you could say Seth Curry is probably insanely more efficient.

No, I would just say tomorrow.

Tomorrow.

DeRozan is the working man. Steph Curry.

Yeah. But, yeah, this is the, the bulls are going to blow it up for the next year until the Rhines Dorfs are like, hey, let's win 40 games again.

That'd be nice.

They'll go back to that. What other, we also had in NBA news, Kevin Durant, who got hurt, I guess, during Olympic scrimmage, also shout out Anthony Edwards, who said, the team has to, everyone has to do it around him.

Yep.

It's not a fit it. They have to fit in with me, not the other way around. He's just a bulldog. But Kevin Durant did a sit down article with Yahoo. Sports and was essentially like, everyone just does the smashes, the Kevin Durant could be traded button for clicks.

We should get that button.

Yeah. I mean, I, listen, that definitely happens. Kevin Durant is someone who's very online. You, you of all people should know that happens. But also, you have been on a good amount of teams. He's been on a few years.

He's been on four teams, right?

Yeah. And he's. Well, he's been on four teams and he's been on, what, three teams the last four or five years.

Yeah.

So, but, yeah, he, he said yes, it's a button. What else is going to get people going around this times? Oh, the journeyman is leaving again. That story is always going to hit.

I did. Now, I did hear that Kevin Durant was unhappy and wanted to be traded.

Yes.

And so I think that if you're Kevin Durant and you're on those suns, you want to leave. Right.

Tune in to Wednesday's, pardon my take, where we actually will have the inside scoop on Kevin Durant possibly being traded.

I hear he's unhappy.

People gonna think we have on the show. We show. I think that's. I think that ship is sailed.

Yeah. LeBron would want to be traded to the suns.

Well, he wants.

He wants all the sun.

Yeah. He wants them all. And he. What he wanted. That was the one team that brawny was allowed to go to.

Oh, really?

Yeah, it was the sons of the lake.

Would they have to change the spelling of the name?

I don't know, but he, he's ended up on the Lakers. It's crazy. Yeah. I. What other.

We've got all star game snubs.

Yes.

Now if I'm a baseball player and I get snubbed for the all star game, I'm secretly excited about it because at least you get to go have like three days where you don't have to work.

Yeah. Although it's probably pretty cool. I mean, it's, it's such a. I always think with the all star game in baseball, it's a short enough time that you'd probably just rather be in the all Star game because it is three days. You know, if it was a full week, I'd like. Yes, I'll be. Every time we have a problem because Christian Yelich might be returning to form and he is in the all Star game, which makes me very nervous that he's going to potentially compete in the.

Home and derby, and he's got an ax to grind. No one drafted him.

And where is the all star game this year? I know, but I'm asking Max, because he loves.

I was about to say it, so. Yeah, I'll just let Max.

Yeah. Yeah, you were. I know you're about to say it, Hank.

Obviously.

Yeah. Austin, it is not Boston.

Come on.

It is in. Max. Can't even google it. Max, I thought you knew it. You don't know where it is. Max. This is embarrassing.

Dude, everything's bigger there.

It's.

Oh, it's in Texas.

Yep.

Globe life is in Globe life.

Yep.

Okay. We'll have to look and see how that does for lefties.

Yeah, listen, he's hit, what, three home runs in the last couple games?

Yeah.

So it's just. It's a small sample size.

Well, he might have taken it personally that he wasn't drafted into.

Well, he can suck my ass.

Yeah, we might have to tune in. Tune in soon. We'll have to stream that. That will be quite some streaming.

Eating each other's asses.

No. Watching Christian yellow. Potentially making us do a stream where we eat each other's asses.

Yeah, this is gonna. I'm confident.

I was so confident he was washed.

He still is washed.

I like. I like Christian Yelich a lot. He's a friend of the program. Been a friend of the program for a long time. But, dude, don't do it. You're gonna get hurt again. Your back's gonna hurt. Oh, is Pete Alonso gonna be in it?

Pete Alonso with the home Run derby is the worst.

It's the most.

He is the biggest loser in sports. When the home run derby comes around.

It'S one of my all time meatball sports brain takes that. When Pete Alonso gets talked about potentially for being on the cubs, I'm like, I don't want him. He cares too much about the Home run derby, dude.

He gets laser focused. He meditates backstage. He goes into a little panic room by himself in between rounds. Just focuses and visualize home runs. That's in. The Home run derby isn't even that fun anymore.

No, they're changed it did they fun. They made it funny.

They refunded.

Refund it.

Are they doing? What are they doing?

They are doing. I think it's swings now, right? Or it's.

No, it's the same way initially. I think it's still like two and.

A half minutes, but it's not head to head either.

But then they get five. I think it's four extra outs after they do the. We need to.

We gotta look it up. We gotta.

Pretty sure that's. I'm pretty sure that.

Look it up. Home run derby rules. I'm pretty.

Home run derby used to be like, the best night of the summer. Yeah, it was so awesome. I loved watching the home run derby. The old rules made it so. You know, the problem with a new home run derby is you don't get to appreciate each dinger because the next stinger is already while the last stingers in the air. Then you have to watch this. The score bug to see if the last dinger went out or not.

Yeah. All right. They didn't really change it. I I disagree with my own statement. It's still three. It's still three minutes.

Yeah, I don't like.

I'm pretty sure they get additional outs, though.

Yeah, but who cares about additional.

Yeah, that's not our problem. We want. I wanted to go back to, I want to go back to ten outs and guys taking balls over and over.

And what, the 10th. The 10th ball is worth.

Yeah. You could just sit there and just marinate in it. Watch the dingers fly. Not, oh, who can hit the most dingerse that, oh, this one lands before the next one or this one doesn't land before the next one's even hit.

Josh Hamilton, Bobby Abreu.

There are no there. They did change. It's not head to head until the final. Until the semifinals, which I like.

That's better.

That's a little bit better. So just be the top four. Three minute round, 40 pitches, one timeout, three bonus outs. Yeah, the bonus outs don't do anything.

Now, was it three minutes with 40 pitches last year or was it just three minutes or.

Oh, yeah, you might be right. You might be right.

Cuz that's. I think that's better.

Some good podcasting. I feel like we're getting back in. It's like training camp for us. We took one week off. I know personally, I spent an entire week just saying, put your shoes on and then watching paw patrol. So my brain is mush. I haven't talked to, like, adults for like, a real meaningful conversation in a while, but, uh, yeah, I feel like in your sick.

Pft, I'm sick. I also spent the last week just negotiating with street vendors. Oh, my friend. Best press. My friend.

Yeah. In Greece.

I love Greece.

They don't pay taxes.

Greece, they don't know.

That's why their whole economy, the taxes in Greece. And this is. This could be.

I paid a lot of taxes while I was.

This could be totally made up. But as far as I know, and this is based on a twitter thread I read a few years ago, in Greece, taxes are optional. And then their economy just crumbles every, like, 1015 years. They're like, hey, we should probably start paying taxes.

Their soccer, their club soccer teams should be a lot better than if you don't have to pay taxes. That's how, that's how you get all the good players.

I think they might charge foreigners taxes, but the actual Grecians, they don't. They just, it's a, it's kind of like a leave a tip or not.

Yeah.

They're like, oh, should I do my taxes? No, I'm not gonna do it this year.

I love Greece. It was a great place, but I just kept thinking about Stavi when I was over there.

Yeah.

Also shout out, Stavi gave me a great recommendation to go get a euro in Athens. And I showed up and I was ten minutes late and it closed.

Oh, no.

So wait. Very bummed out about that.

Oh, how do they close the euro shops?

Well, let me, let me tell you a little story about how, how Greece works. Nothing opens until like, 11:00 a.m. because everyone stays out until like, 02:30 a.m. yeah. And then they open for lunch for like, two and a half hours, and then they don't open again until like, seven or 08:00 p.m. i said, a guy. Tell me. Yeah. You'll make it there by about seven in the afternoon.

Yeah.

Oh, that was weird.

Yeah, that is weird. All right. I looked, I just, I just googled it. Yes. Currently, more than half of greek households are exempt from any personal income tax.

Okay.

That rock feels like a lot. And you can also. Yeah.

How do you get on the bad 50%?

I don't know.

Gotta make a lot of money, probably.

I think it's a cultural thing.

Just like, earn your stripes.

You will. I don't know if it's a total or not.

I think it's just seniority.

I don't know. I don't know.

I think it's, I think it's a cultural thing because I. This is a very funny headline. Did Greeks fail to pay 89.5% of taxes?

They're just like, if. That's actually genius. If they say, what if we just all didn't pay taxes? They can't audit everybody, right?

That's. I think it's cultural.

Yeah. That's good.

Yeah.

All right. Stick it to the man.

Yeah. Yeah. They just, a lot of them just, they do it as optional. I think we should probably take that. Yep. Where were we?

Oh, for years from the front.

Great tangent. Great tangent. MLB. All star game.

All star game. Yeah, that's, it always happens when we talk about like non football sports. Well, time stamp, this is baseball talk.

In this week of sports it's always like the all star snubs. Which the reason I wouldn't mind being an all star snub is because they would say you get your own day where people are just mad and they're lobbying on your behalf.

So yeah, that shine, it's like an afternoon. And you also get, you have to be the number one snub. I know that the Mets fans are mad because Nemo and Lindor, my guy, Christian Walker, dingers only legend, he went back to back nights hitting two home runs. Both nights he got snubbed. Christopher Sanchez, Jordan Westburg, shout out the o's. Who, who got, who got snubbed there? Max?

Christopher Sanchez. Even though the like the entire pitching is the Phillies pitching.

Someone asked me to ask you, Max, have the Phillies won a series against the Braves this year?

They've played twice.

They're playing tennis. Playing tonight. They were they gonna win tonight?

I want you to ask that person the last time the Braves beat the Phillies in a playoff series.

Okay, I will. Also, since we're talking baseball, how did the, how did the team pug end up?

We got slaughter rolled in the playoffs. We only had a lot of. Our team was traveling for the 4 July so we had to scrape.

But everyone who was in town went, right.

Everyone except for Max. Max went to twelve baseball games last week. Couldn't miss the game on Tuesday because he had to go on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

Max is doing load.

Man, I went.

Slaughter ruled.

Well, Hank didn't even show up to the start of the game.

I was. I started the game.

Oh no, man. Were you, you let the boys down.

I let. I told the boys I wasn't gonna be.

You told, you gave him a notice that you're gonna let him down.

I think Garrett Stubbs recognize me.

Oh yeah.

Already?

Yeah, we did. I think. I think we mentioned it. Yep.

Cut this.

Wait. What? We didn't talk about this.

I think we did. Max. Max yelled at Phillies, said let's go.

No, no, this is something different. He.

Oh right. That's what we talked about.

Yeah, this is different. Max had got a wink. So from the doug.

Okay, nice. So we're on show number two in a row of Max screaming at Phillies.

And maybe they recognize, did he or.

Did he, did they or did they not recognize Max?

I honestly don't know.

This is now two shows in a row.

Because he looked at me, gave me a nod, winked, and then he. And then he started going like this and saying, drive the boat. Or like, are you driving the boat? And I was like, what? I couldn't picture what that meant. Yes.

He thought you were Hank.

Yeah.

I think he thought I was Hank.

Yeah.

Oh, he thought duck boat.

Or maybe the duck.

Or. Yeah.

Or I thought, yeah. Or maybe he was referencing story of the. Of the beer Olympics.

Ah, got it. I don't. I don't know.

I think he was saying to be a real shame if you crashed your boat.

Yeah.

Maybe was not you.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Which is.

So the Phillies think that you're Hank.

That's cool.

That.

That hurt.

Is that a win for hang?

Yeah.

And smart by them.

They're like, they see a guy, and they're like, that guy's somehow related to PMT. Oh, it's Hank.

Yeah. Well, your hair grew back real fast, Hank.

Yeah, that's. That's tough. And you're sitting with a little baby bib in the booth right now having to go through because you texted me, very excited. You said, we're back.

Well, yeah. I didn't really understand.

He was getting slaughtered. Max was getting winks. That were for Hank.

Kinda.

Yeah.

Who from the Phillies is in the all star game?

It is Bryce Harper. Trey Turner. Ranger Suarez. Zach Wheeler. Matt Strom.

No, Castellanos.

Castellanos is not.

Cassianos in the home run derby would be awesome because it'd be just tragedy after tragedy after tragedy happening somewhere.

Alec Bohm. Also Hoffman.

What's that, Hank?

A bombing somewhere?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It would just be the worst.

Like, a terrorist attack happens.

A terrorist attack. Slash, like, tornado.

Like world War two.

Yeah.

Sharknado happens.

All these things happen at the same time. Okay, what else? That was great MLB talk, boys.

It was really good.

I really. Dingers only. Scott going hot and heavy right now. We're. We're off and running.

NHL free agency.

Sure. I said my piece. I think the Blackhawks did a good job.

I think my take caps did a wonderful job as well. Celebrini. He's doing stuff. Think he signed his contract?

Yep.

That's cool. Also, hockey. Hockey should just go away for like a month.

No, that wasn't gonna be my take. I was thinking about it. There are some jerseys, and I like the jersey in general, but the San Jose Sharks, like, they had a picture of him in the sharks jersey. I was like, this isn't a real franchise.

Looks kind of like a 1990s video game.

Yeah, it's like, let's make a. Let's make a franchise. I don't know. You just put on the.

Well, the ducks. The ducks kind of had that vibe going for him when they were the. The Anaheim mighty ducks.

Yeah.

And then they just switched it up, and now they look like a real hockey team.

Yeah. So good luck to Celebrini. He's gonna be great. Yeah. I'm trying to think what other. What other big stories we have. Michael Rubin's white party. That was cool.

Yeah, we were there.

No one except the people there.

We were definitely there.

So sick. That was so sick.

Ah, man.

Joe Burrow was there.

Was he?

Yeah, he had a. He had sleeve. A sleeveless, like, white button down shirt.

Good for Joe, and we'll get into this with Joe when we talk to him. But going into the interview, I was a little worried that Joe's gone Hollywood. Honest.

Yeah, you said that to me before.

Yeah, I was a little bit worried. I can confirm that. Joe Burrow still as cool as he ever was.

Yeah. He's not Hollywood.

He's a man.

Cool.

Tom Brady got picked off by DeMar Hanlon on the beach.

Oh, really?

Okay, let's. Cuz we're. We're doing some loose podcasting right now. There's not a lot going on in the sports world.

We're comeback player of the year next year for Damar.

Well, we're feeling our way back into the podcasting game. How. How long is Tamar Hamlin gonna get invited to these things?

I think if he plays his cards right for a long time.

Forever.

Yeah.

Okay. Good for him. I'm not judging him. It's just, like, saw him pick off Brady. I was like, oh, shit. Is that Tamar Hamlin? Oh, he's there. Okay. And Grant Williams is my favorite. Like, just pops up at all these parties.

Mm hmm.

I don't know how that. He just. He must, like, wash the dishes or something after. Like, he helps out around the house.

I have no.

He doesn't get a straight invite. He's like Ruby, like Rubens, like, oh, yeah, Grant, you can come. Can you. Can you, like, just park a couple cars before, and then you're. You're welcome to come in.

Maybe someone's plus one.

Yeah. Yeah.

Who's dating.

I don't know.

Yeah, he didn't get a tribute video. He's getting a white party invite. Everybody at the white party should be somebody that gets a tribute video.

But I like. I like the Grant Williams there just because it's very funny to see him pop up and DeMar. Good for him. Just keep. Keep doing it.

You think Tom let him pick that off?

I don't know. I feel like Tom Brady was pissed. Yeah, because I feel like anytime Tom Brady has a football in his hand, he's like, am I back?

Yeah, like, am I.

Am I gonna do this fake punt?

Those are the VP of the players association. So maybe he's just a great who people person. I don't know. Grant Williams.

Oh, is he? Yeah. Oh, okay, so that might be why. Yeah.

Wait, so who's the president? Is that Chris Paul?

I think so.

No, it's CJ McCollum, I think.

Oh yeah, yeah, that's right, that's right, that's right. Yeah, that, that white party, that was cool. That was. I was really, really cool.

So in all honesty, I think this was the first time that the white party happened that I thought to myself, I, I never, ever want to be there.

No, I. Cuz it was also like what you'd. If we were in that we would know some people, but I think we'd get a lot of people being like, those guys are way too ugly to be here.

Yeah. I would definitely stick out. I would probably be asked to leave the second I stepped in.

Yeah. And I'd spill, I'd spill on myself instantly.

It's. And it's a white party.

Right.

Right.

So there's, there's no chance that you would have, be able to say it was in bead there?

Oh yeah.

Oh, of course.

Meek Mill was there holding the trophy.

Drake looked sad. I saw one picture. He kind of looks sad. Yeah, he's, he's got to have going for worst summer ever.

Drake. Yeah, well he had the video, Kendrick Lamar's video for not like us came out and then while he was at, while he was at the white party, which is. And then everyone's watching the video while he's at the white party. And then Demar DeRozan came out when the. When the Kings introduced him to not like us. So it's just gonna. That song is just gonna be around for the entire. So probably much longer than that.

Yeah.

So I don't, I don't know what he's gonna do about this.

Yeah, good for the white party.

I don't think Embiid was there.

I don't think so either.

Cuz he should.

Yeah, he, he's been, but like Kevin Durant and Devin Booker were there.

Kevin Durant got hurt.

Well, I know the white party happened before he got hurt.

Oh, fuck.

So when did you think they did the white part?

Now we do.

Speaking.

Speaking of white parties, we've got an update here from Chet Hanks.

Oh, yes.

White boys summer was created to be fun, playful, and a celebration of fly white boys who love beautiful queens of every race. Anything else that it has been twisted into to support any kind of hate or bigotry against any group of people is deplorable, and I condemn it. I hope that we can all spread love to each other and treat each other with kindness and dignity. Love Chet Hanks. You know he's serious when he ends up with Chet Hanks, not Chet Hayes.

Yeah.

So don't get it twisted.

People trying to co opt white party.

Yeah. White boy summer was supposed to be white.

White boy summer.

Yeah, that's.

Yeah, don't. Don't take it away.

Um, I don't think I beat. Was there anymore.

Okay. Was Tatum there?

Oh, yeah. Brought the trophy.

He did.

Because he doesn't have. Or if he doesn't have a trophy. Yeah. That's actually sad. Like, the fact that he brought that. As a heck, you have to admit, the fact that he brings the trophy with him everywhere he goes.

He's like, yeah, he players would.

It's me. That's different. The Stanley cup is different.

He's like a guy who gets a puppy trying to get a chick.

Yeah.

I mean, if you guys want me championship, you do the same thing.

It's me, remember?

I would never bring the trophy anywhere, ever. Yeah.

You wouldn't, like, follow the trophy around.

That's the Stanley cup. Big difference.

With me, also, you can.

That's the best trophy in sports.

And drink out of the Stanley cup. What do you use the NBA, the Larry O'Brien for a giant dildo?

You think anyone's ever brought around the Lombardi trophy? People don't just bring that around.

Absolutely.

That's not like a traveling trophy.

No.

The Stanley cup is the only traveling trophy. That's a fact.

I also don't think that you guys are arguing that you guys have aura. Like, if. If the argument is more aura, big cat or Jason Tatum, that is not a good sign for Jason Tatum.

Yeah. And also, I. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But the fact that you. That you're walking into a party with the NBA championship trophy, it's like, hey, remember me, guys?

Yeah. Hey. To finish off the baseball talk, there is no worse trophy than the World Series. That trophy stinks.

Yeah, it's a bad trophy.

That trophy's just literally like, hey, how can we make a trophy that looks like, it's gonna break at any moment.

The coolest part about that trophy was when George Costanza dragged around the parking lot and it broke everywhere.

I was like, yes.

That's what I want to see that trophy do.

It really is, it's, it's really a blowout when you go from like the Stanley cup to the World Series. Like the World Series trophy. The problem with it is it, it looks cool if it's in a glass container, but to actually celebrate with it, you can't celebrate with it.

Right. You can't do anything. You're going to fall down and hurt yourself with it.

Yeah. You're going to break one of those flags.

I would say the crystal ball that they used to have for college football.

Yep.

Great trophy.

That was a great.

Bring that trophy back.

That was a great trophy.

I put that at power ranking number two. Actually.

We should do Mount Rushmore.

I think we have trophies.

Yeah, but just be like, we get one pick.

Okay. You want to do impromptu?

Okay.

All right, I'll go first. Stanley Cup.

Lombardi.

Larry O'Brien.

Low man.

Good. Pandora pick.

I was good pander. Yeah, that was a good pander pick. Memes.

Memes. Panicking worlds.

You have World Series still there. Memes. World Series still there. Memes. Would a gold medal work?

No, not a trophy.

Not a trophy.

World cup.

What about like a rivalry trophy? Like Paul Bunyan Jack.

Yep.

Yep. That's a good pick.

Oh, we could actually do this.

Avn.

Alright, we'll do this. Do this at some point. Yeah. No, we absolutely could do this. Okay. Anything else before we do who's back of the week?

My who's back of the week is wild.

Okay.

Shout to jake.

I saw brawny.

I saw a very. No, I saw a very wild stat today. Speaking of golf.

Ah, don't. What are you gonna do? Okay, go ahead.

This is wild.

Well, we'll be the judge of that.

Is it?

What is your stat about living.

Okay, I thought you were gonna talk about that stat that's going around. That's very mean. That just has every single Chicago sports team ranked this past year, and they're all in last place.

I was pro Chicago. I wants to be.

Well, it's a very, it's Bears last NFC North Bulls fourth Central Division, Cubs last NLC Central or NL Central Blackhawks last Central Division White Sox last AL Central, 379 combined winning percentage.

Interesting. They don't have the draft order on there, though.

That's true. Number one pick. Bulls had the 11th. Blackhawks had the second anchor.

You don't address the necklace.

Oh, yeah, I got my, my Jalen Brown necklace. It. I'm bio streaming chemicals into my, you know, insides without having the side effects of things like caffeine. So I get all the effects of them.

You like coffee?

It uses small musical frequencies to activate the cells that.

The buzzing we hear.

It's nanobots.

No.

Okay.

Yeah, it's awesome.

All right, so what should.

You should get one pt. I love it.

Do want one very much. Can I, can I get a hit of it?

You want some streams?

You look like. Honestly, it looks cool. It looks stylish. Kind of like a dog shot collar, though.

Mm hmm. Yeah.

Dog shot caller. Yeah, it looks like some type of.

I keep thinking it's a visor that you're gonna put on the, in the.

Picture on the thing like that. And the brochure they had a lady that wore like this. I don't know how you tighten it, but she had it around her head like a visor.

Oh, your hair grows fast. Let me get ahead. Let me get.

All right, so what's your stat? It's not the insult. Stat. Did. Yes, I got. I saw everyone tag me saying, don't let me see this. I saw it many times.

For the last three years, each winner of the John Deere classic has stayed in the same rental home in Illinois.

Whoa.

Officially the trophy house. Davis, Thompson, Sepstracca, JT Poston.

How do you get this over your head?

In the same.

In the same exact place, same rental home.

Holy shit.

That's wild, right?

That is wild.

Big tournament, a lot of big field, pretty random golfers.

That was about life. What? You said it was about life. The stat.

I said wild. I said golf.

Oh, golf.

So how much is that?

Oh, yeah, I think you said life and. But you meant to say golf.

I think you said living.

Yeah, I think you said living. And you meant to say golf or.

Living in the house. I don't know.

No, I think you life. Is golf synonymous for living?

Living is golf.

If you can't go screw that up. And. Yeah, if you can't play living. And you meant to say golf like.

You said, it's about living.

Yeah.

So you're like, if I can't golf, then I die.

Yeah.

True. Yes. Wild.

That is wild. How much do you think they're gonna be able to sell that house for next year?

I mean. Yeah.

How?

I don't know how the bidding process goes for getting that house, but if you're playing in the John Deere and.

You'Re not trying to get it right.

Now, whatever you can to get in.

The house, you could win it. You could win. John.

Yeah.

Rent.

Rent it right now for next year. Man, I'm fucked up about this necklace.

Look into it. Yeah, it's good stuff. Are you probably feeling much better?

Yeah, I'm feeling.

How excited are you for this golf tournament?

We're going to my balls now.

I'm gonna be sick.

I'm very excited.

Also, we're not golfing. I had to break that to hank today.

No, I thought you were. No, this was about a video. I thought at one point you were golfing. I knew I wasn't. No, they thought you were golfing, and we were filming.

So the. The Tahoe, the chill week. We've always wanted to go to this tournament. There's, like, a ton of people we want to interview it's gonna be awesome. But so, when we were setting this whole thing up, the american century celebrity golf tournament, people have been super, super nice. We're, like, so pumped to be out there. They asked us if we want to play in the pro am. They're like, what are your handicaps? And I think we made the right decision. We're like, this is a bad idea, because there's going to be a lot of people standing around, and we might kill someone.

Yeah, that. That was our big, nervous moment. We were thinking about doing the pro am thing with Brooks last year at the live tour, where there are gonna be people that are potentially standing on the sides of the tee box.

Yes.

And that's bad.

Yeah. So we're not golfing, but we will be there. I think we're caddying for a couple of the guys. We're gonna do some videos. We're gonna get some awesome interviews for the awl, some, like, really awesome ones. I'm very excited about a bunch of them.

Are we allowed to take, like, celebrity shots? Maybe we can have the celebrities.

We can ask.

I think I've seen. I've seen people do it.

Well, the problem is, I don't know what the vibe is. Like, I think guys really want to win this. Like, our. I thought that stuff you guys are.

Doing is, like, the practice round.

We are.

Is not. Like. It's not like, still, I want to.

Win, but Blake Griffin takes golf very seriously. Yeah, I don't think he wants. Oh, did you guys see? I saw a tick tock account they're bringing back. Honking in people's backswings, and it's so fucking.

Oh, I love that.

Yeah. Jackass.

Jackass. When they bring the air horn up to the golf course.

Love it so much. I watched an hour of these tick tocks the other night, just guys getting so angry of. And they would just. They would honk in the backswing, and someone else from the foursome would stand up, and they would just, like, kind of fake him out, and they would still honk in their backswing, and then they drive off.

I used to do that when I was just driving by the golf course in my hometown when I was, like, a teenager. Just got my car. I would just drive by the golf course. Every hole, I would just lean on the horn, because what are they gonna do? Yeah, they can't chase you.

You don't think it's funny, Hank? No, you don't. Which sucks, because it's funny. So funny. It's so fun.

Why can't baseball players, they swing when people are, like, honking and making noise and whistling in their backswing all the time. Why can't the golfer do it?

I think people were cheering the whole time. That'd be one thing you can get used to, but the silence sucks.

You are probably the same guy that said, it's not cool when people post videos of them running over their friends with the golf cart.

Those videos are funny.

Very funny. Right? Honking a backswing is funny. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I. He does. He still.

He doesn't think it's funny.

It's funny, but I don't want to say it's funny. And it, you know, it happens to you. It's not funny because you don't think it's.

So. If it happened to me, it'd be funny.

It'd be like, remember, I shoot free throws and the kid just yelled out the window, Hank, that. Whatever. Patriots fucking suck.

Yeah.

I miss my free throw.

And it was funny.

Yeah.

That was a very funny moment. Yeah. Okay. Pft, your who's back.

My who's back of the week is Archie Manning. Yeah, Archie Manning's back. This was, I believe, on Tuesday of last week. Wednesday of last week, the Clarion Ledger posted an article and a tweet, and it said, archie Manning, Ole Miss football legend, dad of Eli Peyton, grandfather of Arch, is 75.

Yeah.

Everybody thought that Archie Manning was dead.

I 100% did.

When you read that headline, you think is dead at 75, and then you go back and you reread the headline and you don't know what the fuck they're talking about with this art. Like, why is this an article? Yeah, you have to assume that arches 75th birthday is today. No, when you read that plot twist, it's not even his birthday. He turned 75 on May 19.

Yeah.

So for some reason, they just decided to write an article about his age, his best life, accomplishments.

Yeah.

How you know him, and then just ended the sentence.

They. I guess they've been doing this.

Oh, this. This one newspaper.

Yeah. And then Florio, uh, like, took him to task big time. Like Spider man meme.

Yeah, so Florio has never pronounced anybody dead. Mike Florio announced that Terry Bradshaw died of twelve years ago.

Listen, it's a Kevin Durant clickbait game.

It is.

What are you gonna do? You gotta get the clicks.

So. But it was a very. It was a very funny headline, because everybody thought that Archie Manning was dead for a second thought, and he's not dead. And. Listen, I don't want to get into talking about John Cena. He did announce that he was retiring from wrestling in the ring, but it would be cool if you were Archie Manning. Just, you'd probably get some people saying nice things about you, and they're like, oh, shit, he's still alive. Yeah, I stand by that take.

Do you think that if we had John Cena on at some point in the next year, which I think he's doing a year long retirement ceremony, if we're like, hey, like, you think LeBron will retire? You would say, that's not funny to me.

I just. Some people just retired recently.

I'm going through that myself.

Do we want to get back on the show?

Sure.

John Cena.

Absolutely. Absolutely. I think John Cena is one of those guests that we have on every, like, four years, just enough time passes that he just forgets that we exist. And then he comes back on. He's like, oh, these guys.

If he comes back on, we will definitely ask him how cool it was when people thought that you were dead for a second.

That is. Run it back.

We'll run it, and we'll see what is react. It might be totally different.

Yeah. Because he. Well, unless he has someone die.

Yeah. We got to make sure that everyone around him is safe.

Yeah. But I definitely want John Cena back on because, yeah, he is. He's in that list of, like, I don't think he has any idea who we are. Although that one time, he did want to fuck my belly button.

Yeah.

But it's enough time passes where he's like, yeah, I'll do this podcast. He doesn't realize till he's in the interview where he's like, shit, these guys again.

He does so much media to that.

Right.

There's a good chance that he might just forget.

Okay, we're gonna try to get John Cena on, talk about his retirement.

Come on the show. John Cena.

Yeah. Okay, my. Who's back the week? I have two. One is Joey Chestnuthen still the goat? So on July 4, I don't know if you guys watched. I did not. The Nathan's.

I did not.

I did not. They didn't have it on in Greece for some reason.

The winner who. Listen, I feel bad for the guy because he basically, like, he didn't ask for this. He just went and won. He had fit. He ate 58 hot dogs. Joey Chestnut. In ten minutes. Joey Chestnut did a an event with the troops. He ate 57 hot dogs in five minutes.

That's. That's pretty good. That's pretty impressive. There's an asterisk around. It was a Berlatoni, that one.

Yeah, I think so.

Yeah. Big asterisks.

Yeah. I feel bad for him. Like, he, that's not his fault. He just went and competed.

It does show it, but it sucks.

Because everyone's like, dude, that's not real.

Like, Joey Chestnut is, is the biggest thief of joy. We talked about the, the Tom Brady's of the world, the Patrick Mahomes is that have taken joy away from so many different good quarterbacks and good fan bases. Joey Chestnut is like that for anybody that's ever eaten anything.

Yes.

Like, you'll never, these, these other guys are great eaters in their own right, and they'll never be known because they're not Joey Chestnut.

Yeah. No, it's a fact. All right, then my other who's back is, I guess, blowing up spots. I don't know if you guys saw this headline, but the Daily Mail on July 4. I'll read a headline. Let's read a headline together. Meet Derek Blassberg, Hollywood socialite accused of fleeing Gwyneth Paltrow's Hamptons home after catastrophic diarrhea who counts Jeff Bezos and Demi Moore as pals.

So basically, Gwyneth Paltrow got on the phone with a Daily mail after this guy left and said, I want you to put an article about how bad his diarrhea was.

So I don't know if it was Gwyneth Paltrow because the whole article basically says, this guy is so connected, but he's not like a list. People don't really know who he is. And apparently this, the diarrhea was so bad, the story, just like, word of mouth, got back to the Daily Mail. It's crazy. But he got, yeah, look, he, first of all, he blamed, he tried to blame Ozempic, which is so funny that he's like, oh, I had ozempic diarrhea. The Internet was whipped into a frenzy last week when a blind item in a popular gossip newsletter claimed that Goop founder Paltrow had been faced with cleaning up someone's ozempic induced diarrhea at her home, insiders later told Daily Mail. Blastberg, once described as one of showbiz most well connected, Mendez was the culprit and that he had conveniently blamed the incident on the popular weight loss wonder drug before allegedly fleeing the property. And then it goes on to say, it's not Ozempic. That's just what he told everyone, the insider said before revealing how the secret made it way through the Hampton set. Ready for this, Gwyneth told Oprah, Jerry and Jessica Seinfeld and Larry David went from there somehow through the grapevine to.

So this guy's diarrhea was the talk of the town.

This is crazy. So this guy, Derek Blassberg, he has, he has interacted with Gwyneth Paltrow in the past online, their friends. Their friends. And he's saying, they're saying now it was not ozimpic related.

No, they're saying it's not Oz epic related. And then it basically became the talk of the town in the hamptons. And then finally it ended up on the front page of the Daily Mail on July 4. Just blowing up this guy's spot. Yeah, he, the guy is, the guy's weird. They talked about Gwyneth Paltrow meeting him for the first time, and Paltrow admitted she had questioned if Blastburg was simply a professional hanger on. When I first met him, I was a little dubious. I was like, are you a professional best friend to celebrities? And why are you everywhere at once? What's your deal? After 10 seconds, I fell completely in love with him. Sounds like she just fell for the professional hanger on. She's like, that guy is a professional best friend of celebrities. Oh, my God, I love him. This guy's no diarrhea.

In my house, this guy's got 245,000 Twitter followers.

I would say now he's just diarrhea guy.

Now he's diarrhea guy.

Like, you could do everything you could do. You could have all these friends. You could write. I think he's a journalist. You could write a book. But you do one bad diarrhea in Gwyneth Paltrow's house. Your diarrhea guy, Eric Blasberg, diarrhea.

Maybe if this Derek Blasberg guy is such a good friend to celebrities, maybe it was somebody else's diarrhea and he's putting his hand up and taking the blame for it. You know? I'm saying, like, I don't know, man. Like, if, what if it's Gwyneth's diarrhea and he's such a good pal? I think, like, just tell Oprah it was mine, but I think.

I think he is the exact guy. Like, that would be a normal thing for a regular person to. But if his job is to be a professional hanger on, you, you have to be like, diarrhea could ruin my whole career.

You don't want to be known as the guy that you can't invite over to your house.

He's got diarrhea and now he's diarrhea guy, like forever.

Has he made any comment about this?

No, but I really want him to because I was thinking about it more.

Sounds like a notes app.

I think there are definitely some crimes that you could come back from faster than diarrhea and Gwyneth Paltrow's house.

Yeah, I mean, Marion Barry was arrested for smoking crack and then he got elected mayor of DC.

Any, like, small drug paraphernalia? Yeah, don't drink and drive, but a DUI like Justin Timberlake, is that good? That's gonna be a blip on the radar. He's not gonna be dui guy.

I'd even say robbing a bank is kind of cool.

Tax fraud. Yeah, all these things. You can definitely bounce back faster than diarrhea and Gwyneth Paltrow's house.

And she had to clean it up.

She had to clean it up herself. I'm gonna go to Goop founder Gwyneth Paltrow.

I'm gonna go to his website and see what he advertises here. I mean, if I were him, I would just put on my own website, which is Derek plasberg.com. i do not have diarrhea.

Right.

Not I. The diarrhea is fake news.

There was no diarrhea. And if there were diarrhea, it was ozempic diarrhea. Cuz that, cuz I. It's clear he's ashamed of it if he's blaming ozempic. This, this sounds like also just kind of a fuck. Think about that. It's like a fucked up just comment on our society that the guy was like, oh, it was, he's not even overweight and he's like, yeah, it's the weight loss drug I'm taking that caused the diarrhea. And no one was like, hey, why are you doing that? They're just like, nah, dude, that was your diarrhea.

This guy also might be paid by Manjaro. True to say that oz bad diarrhea, that Paltrow will tell Oprah about it.

True. And it's pretty fucked up, this story, because if they just had, like, pictures of him and his partner and like, their two kids being like, blast Blasberg welcomed his two children a couple years ago and it's the name of his kids. And in the diarrhea article, you can.

Also have diarrhea and then not make somebody else clean it up. That's, that's the bad part.

Yeah.

Are we thinking just real bad stained porcelain like, guy.

No, I assumed that it was in.

The bed, that he shit the bed.

I think he shit the bed. I don't think this was a bathroom thing. I think this was a bed.

He crapped in the bed. And then Gwyneth had to clean it.

All the way to the bathroom, and then he just left. He hightailed it out of there, man.

Derek, come on the show.

Yeah, please come on the show. We won't call you. We'll introduce you as diarrhea guy.

Diary boy.

Not call you diarrhea guy after that. We'll call you DG. Max, you have a. Who's back?

Not really.

Caleb Martin.

NASCAR.

Caleb Martin. Also Anthony. Anthony Edwards being. Being the best.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Where he said he's the number one option.

Yeah, that was. NASCAR is back, though. We went to the race. It was awesome. It did rain. Also had one of the weirdest interactions Hank and I did. So we were at this thing beforehand. Pft. That was like, a bunch of, like, athletes, celebrities, whatever. And.

Which are always fun when it's random, like, super bowl party, when it's.

Yeah, it was very random.

Bumping into people.

It was random. Like, we bumped into, like, Dana White was there. I was like, can we go to the total chaos?

Yeah.

Um, but anyway, we see Stephen Coletti from Laguna beach fame.

Mm hmm.

And we're like, we gotta go. We gotta go. Say what's up? Yeah. I got excited before we could even say, what's up. He went up to Hank and was.

Like, hey, Hank, that's cool.

So he's a PMT listener.

Oh, shout out him.

Sorry. He was a PMT list until I went up to him and I was like, hey, what's up, man? He's like, hey, big cat. And I was like, hey, just so you know, I'm a J guydev. And he was like, okay, that, like, I dated Kristen Cavallari, like, 20 years before, and I was like, yeah. But I wanted it that clear that.

I'm a jake from the get go.

It was so awkward. He was a good sport about it, but it was awkward.

That was a. That was such a moment in time.

Yeah.

The Laguna beach era.

I just. Listen, I'm loyal. I'm a loyal guy.

Yeah.

My guys that.

I mean, obviously there's a lot of interactions we have with a lot of famous people, but it's always the people that, you know, when I was younger, like, when I watched Laguna Beach, I was like, eleven. So walking past him and him being like, what's up, Hank?

Yeah.

I literally thought it was a different person. I thought this was Stephen, but the fact that he's talking to me means it can't be Steven.

Steven, if you're listening to this right now, I apologize. I had to do that. I have no regrets, but I apologize for making it awkward. Thank you for listening. You're a cool guy. You're also a very good looking guy. We also were told this is not our finest moment. Someone told us that CT of challenge fame was there, and Hank and I both just started, like, going around, like. Like fucking drug dogs. Look, just looking for him everywhere. Where is he? Where is.

Didn't find him.

No. Couldn't find him. Couldn't find him.

I kept hoping, like, I was walking, being like, is he.

Think.

I think I backpacked.

He knows. Come on.

I don't know. I never watched.

He's sick.

He said, I never watched the challenge.

Sick. Did CT get back? No. CT backpack. Johnny bananas.

Oh, I thought. Johnny Bananas.

And he tried to eat Adam's brain.

Oh, I thought that. I thought. Johnny Bananas, backpack CT, zero one.

There's one season I got ball sacked. There's one season where CT was just. He clearly, I. I don't think it was right headspace. He didn't want to be there, and he just beat the fuck out of the smallest guy within, like, the first five minutes of the season and got kicked out. He's like, I'm gonna eat your brains.

You know what?

Be good.

Mount Rushmore is Mount Rushmore of, like, celebrities that you had when you were younger that are just definitely not really celebrities to most people.

Yeah, no, it's a cts.

Yeah.

Ct for sure.

That the. The beer games made me think about that show and how, like, what we did for the beer games was similar to those shows where they would just get fucked up, but, like, it would just all play out. Yeah, they, like, imagine, like, because those fights and, like.

Yeah.

You know those scenes where you're watching, like, how are these guys saying this? And how is this happening? Every night they're getting thrown in the pool.

They just went online with alcohol. Yeah. Yeah. And they're just like. They're. They basically.

And then wake up and go do a challenge. They put them in a drunk again.

No cell phones, no tv, unlimited alcohol. Go.

It's a pretty easy formula.

It works every time.

No board games.

Never.

They're never playing, like, Scrabble.

In the last interaction we had, the beef with Joey Logano is still on.

Good.

Yeah. Joey Slogano.

Yeah. So I went up to him and I was like, hey, we. You blocked me on Twitter. Will you unblock me? He's like, well, what's your pitch for unblocking me? I was like, I actually don't have a pitch. If you unblock me, I'm just gonna tweet you. Joey Sliganore.

Yeah, that's it.

Okay, so I'm not gonna unblock you. It's like, that's fair.

Who was the NASCAR driver that came to the studio like, a month and a half ago? Was it chase?

Yeah, that sounds right.

Was it chase? He just won the cup.

Yeah, chase. Yeah.

So we were playing golf with him in the simulator, and I don't really know that much about NASCAR, so make it small talk. I was like, you know Joey Logano? He's like, yeah. I was like, how much of a dick is he in real life? And he, like, chuckled. I was like, I hate that guy. That's his, like, closest teammate.

Yeah. Oops.

Hand up.

They are.

But he is slow. The thing about Joey Logano, slowy. He's fucking slow.

And I Blaney.

Ryan Blaine Blaney.

And I told him, I said to him, I was like, hey, when you're in your car today, just think about how slow you are. Slow. Gonna.

Speaker three is slow.

And he was dead last for a.

While, cuz he's slow.

Because he was think he was like.

Damn, I am slow.

That, that. That big. That big cat guy was probably right. He probably doesn't know my name, but he. That guy who came up to me and asked me to unblock him, he was right. He's slow.

He's very slow.

But shout out, NASCAR. We had a great time. We got to walk around the pit row there. They do a great, great job. And they were very welcoming. What do you say, Hank?

No, it's just a cool. It was a cool big event, and in the city, it was like, yeah, it was awesome. They were driving same streets we drive.

Yeah, they were.

I was driving the street on Friday, and I was like, look, I saw the fences on you doing turns. It's like, I think I'm on the NASCAR track.

Yeah, it is fun to pretend that you're driving NAScar.

Oh.

Talking to people in the pit.

Also news that I got, we have, apparently we have two race simulators in this office that are yet to be built.

What? Yeah, I thought that we couldn't have simulators in this office, Hank.

Yeah.

I thought they were too big.

I thought we were getting one. I think we're getting one.

I think delivery.

Yeah, we might be getting one back.

What the fuck?

To Spider was like, we got to build it, but I'm so excited for it.

If we get a massive if, like, you know, the US Air Force wants to do a partnership with Barstool.

Yes, yes, yes.

And we will.

I will. I will sign up.

Yeah.

I'll enlist in the Air force if they. If they install it back right now. No, no, no. I want to be very clear about what I'm saying. If they install, like, a real world f 22 Raptor flight simulator in this office, I will enlist in the air force.

Take that back right now. What are you then, gonna drop out?

I'm gonna. Yeah, I'm gonna go a wolf, am I?

What? Oh, yeah. You might be too old.

I don't know what the rules are.

Shit.

I'll try to enlist. I'm tall enough.

I don't know. Yeah, I don't know if you're. I think we might be too old. I don't think they'd take us anymore. That's kind of.

Why would they?

Yeah, why would they? I'm an excellent pilot. Oh, this is weird. On my flight back from Greece, we land, and then the. The pilot gets on the speaker, right? And he goes, I want you guys to notice that awesome landing. And that was just pulled off by our cap, our co captain on this flight. He's my son. This was our first father's son flight. It was like a little Lebron. Brawny.

Yeah. Little nepotism. Oh, no, you're good.

You got three years.

Okay, there we go. If we get an f 22 Raptor flight simulator in this office, I would enlist in. The air force has to be full.

They take 39 year olds, 17 to 42. Air Force?

Fuck yeah.

Army, 17 to 35. Coast Guard, 17 to 41.

Yeah, I'll. Dude, if it flies, it dies.

Okay, let's get a simulator. Yeah, we have a. We have a racing simulator coming up.

Marine 1728.

That makes sense.

That makes sense. Okay, let's get to our interview with Joe Burrow. This interview is brought to you by body armor sports drinks. Real hydration, real ingredients packed with electrolytes, vitamins, and nothing artificial. Body armor sports drinks has all your hydration needs covered. Sports drinks, light, zero sugar, flash iv, and, of course, sport water. Body armor. Sports drinks are available at all major retailers. Walmart, Amazon, et cetera. Go get body armor right now. It's the greatest drink ever created. Okay, here he is. Joe Burrow. Okay, we now welcome on a very, very, very special guest, one of our good friends. You can't tell this history of, pardon my take without this. Mandeh. It is Joe Burrow, Cincinnati Bengals quarterback. First of all, great to see you, Joe.

Great has.

I actually want to compliment you at first because I think it's, I think we haven't had you on since 2022. So before we do interviews, I always try to, like, look and see if someone's on another podcast. You basically only do this podcast. You did one other.

I've done one other podcast, yeah. But I have gone off the podcast train for a while.

Yeah, you're ride or die.

I think I've done your guys podcast.

This would be a third time.

Yeah. And I think I've done a total of four.

Okay. So I just want to say I see it and I appreciate it very much.

Welcome home.

Yes, absolutely.

Also, I want to compliment you. I don't know if the cameras caught this, but right when the interview started, Joe fixed his hair, and then, and then that thing, that thing fell down naturally. Does your, does your hair thing fall down naturally?

It does, yeah. Get out of the shower. I push it all back, and then that thing goes right there.

It goes rogue. That's very cool. So we were going to interview Orlando Brown before you. We didn't get a chance to do that. So I'm going to ask you the first question I was going to ask. Has Joe gotten to Hollywood now that.

He'S in fashion shows in Paris? Some might say I've gone Hollywood. I went Hollywood for a week.

Yeah.

Now it's time to lock in.

Yeah.

So I think I'm allowed one week of Hollywood, if that's.

Yeah, I think so.

I actually respected your answer when you said, I'm trying to get out of my comfort zone a little bit.

Yeah.

Try something new.

Definitely out of my comfort zone.

Does that just mean that that is in Paris, that's just wearing suits with no back?

Is that what.

That's all the above, man. You think it's above?

Are the bros to be wearing backless suits?

I think so.

I think backless suits are in.

Good.

I'm in.

I'll wear.

I think you guys should wear backless suits.

Yeah.

For some. Whatever event. If you guys have net takeies.

If. Yeah, maybe the takes.

It doesn't even have to be it. Can you just cut it back out of a suit? You don't even have to, like, make it. Yeah, just cut it.

It is showing your range that you were. What was that? Was it Paris fashion week?

It was vogue World fashion show. Yeah.

And now part of my take.

Yeah.

Two of the highest of high class.

Yes, I agree.

High society.

Yeah.

Wait, so what happened when you showed? Did you know you were wearing a backless suit?

I showed up, and they gave it to me, and I said, sure.

Okay, that's cool. Yeah. Have you been roasted any group chats with the boys?

I've been roasted in just about every group chat I could possibly be roasted in.

Yeah, but you did look cool when you did it.

I did look cool, and I was fully prepared for all of the criticism and roasting I knew was coming my way.

Listen, I'm just gonna throw this out there. If you ever need us, like, we could be, like, a tag team partner. You tag us in, you just throw us in your group chat for, like, a day, and we just roast back, and then you can kick us out.

I'm all for it.

Yeah.

Yeah. You don't even have to say who it is. Just, like, bring in a new number and then let that person go to town until they kick us out.

Backless suits are in. I don't know if you guys are losers for not realizing I'm with that.

Big time.

All right, so I read a report that you are. That you are bigger and stronger than in years past.

Correct.

You are.

Yes.

How much bigger and stronger?

1015 pounds ish.

Okay.

Yeah.

Stronger, stronger. Yeah.

You tell me. How do you want me to climb?

You look so strong.

How many push ups can you do?

I haven't done any push ups with my wrist this year.

Okay, all right, fair. Bad question by me.

Squats.

Squats.

Yeah, I could squat a little more.

How much stronger do you feel?

I feel a lot stronger.

Like, if you were 100% strong two years ago, what are you now?

120% strong.

Wow, that's good.

So that's the headline right there. Joe Burrow feels 120% strong.

There you go.

Yeah. There was a moment a couple months ago when I feel like half the Internet got tricked and they thought that you had really long.

Wish I had that. I don't have the patience for that hair.

Yeah. I was like, do these people not see pictures of Joe Burrow where they know that his hair was never in like, that, in between phases? I think he just showed up one day with, like, a Beatles haircut.

Yeah, I would have. I could have got some extensions, I guess, but that was pretty sick mullet.

Yeah, it was. It did look good. I was at the Star wars haircut.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

It was good. But I was also shocked by how dumb people online were to get. Everyone felt like legitimate news breaking NFL accounts were like, wow, look at this new look.

Lots of lies about me out there. I would say.

Yeah.

What do you think the biggest lie about you is?

Well, I had a bunch of people hit me up this week asking me if I was turning 30 this year.

Oh.

And that's just not even close.

How old are you?

27.

Okay. Yeah. This happens to us. People call us 40, and we're actually 39 and a half.

It's completely different.

So it's way. It's crazy. People do that to you.

I wonder how that rumor got started. Did you know that Joe Burrow is 30?

Yeah. I don't know.

I probably. It's probably a rival fan base because I've been thinking about, like, jordan love. I obviously hate the packers, but I've been thinking about just saying Jordan love is about to turn 30 because he's like. He's about. I think he's in his fourth year.

He's in my class.

Yeah. Right. So I think I could get away with that just being like, yeah, if you want to sign a guy beats.

And turn 30, get away with just about anything on Twitter these days. Yeah.

Well, also, he went to school in Utah, in the states, so some people might be like, oh, he probably went on his mission overseas.

Right.

He's 32 years old.

Right. Okay.

Yeah. Jordan love is actually 32 years old.

Wait, so you're 27. When's your birthday?

December.

Okay. So, yeah, you're gonna be 27 for the majority of the season.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That's pretty good.

You're still in quarterbacks. Come on. 27 is.

I got a good 1015, I would say.

Is that. Is that the plan, like, 15 years?

1542.

See how the. See how the career plays out until then?

Yeah.

So I saw an interview of you where you said that you were thinking about maybe trying to join the USA flag football.

Yeah.

We need you because we just lost to Japan.

Who? What?

The US lost to Japan and what? Black football today.

No, we didn't.

I think it was real football.

It was. Was it real football?

It might have been real football.

So the world's catching up. So I think it was like 41 to 20. They kicked our ass.

Yeah. So that's real.

That's real.

Yeah, I think so.

Okay.

We also could use it in handball if you want to do that.

I'll stick to the football. The football shaped.

Okay. Because handball, you dominate. I. Yeah.

I don't know the rules of handball, but it's literally confident I could pick it up. He's water polo without.

Yeah. And. And we have a long feud with the handball community because they're like, you. No chance could us win? Like, dude. Yes. Joe Burrow could be an awesome handball player.

Yeah. If. If all the best athletes just trained handball from when they were five.

Right.

Like, not even LeBron and.

Yeah.

Katie and Miles Garrett playing handball.

Yeah.

They actually call traveling in handball. So LeBron, maybe not, but, yeah, Miles Garrett. I feel like that dude could do just about any sport.

Oh, I got. I got the biggest lie told about you. People use you as the NBA to NFL, NFL to NBA debate. They're like, Joe Burrow could drop 20. Cause I think you might have said.

That I could spot up in the corner and hit some threes.

Okay.

I'm not guarding those guys, and I'm not dribbling, and they're gonna steal it from me. But I could play with LeBron and stand in the corner.

And stand in the corner.

A couple threes.

Yeah. So if you have to bring the ball up, it might be a problem.

That would be a problem.

Defense.

I mean, I could play great team defense.

Okay. But I'm not good.

Any individual. Yeah. Like, I'll get everybody situated in the two three zone, but picks. Yes. Like, I'll be standing in the corner guarding the guy in the corner.

Yeah.

And then I'll go to the other corner and do my thing in that corner. I'll just go corner to corner.

Yeah.

I did notice that you got a small look in your eye when you. When you found out that we lost to Japan. Like, I think you really want to play.

Disappointing.

Yeah.

I really want to play for the Olympic flag football team. Yeah.

Yeah.

It's gonna be awesome.

Like, me, Jamar, Justin.

Now you're just naming your friends.

Yeah. Me and my friends out there playing football.

If Joe is a guy, that could be like, yeah, me and, like, my best friends could beat anybody in the world in football.

It's true.

Which is a cool thing to say.

That's a very cool thing.

I think it'd be really cool.

Yeah. Yeah.

I think you can do it. We can't lose. We can't lose the gold medal. The first time that we have that in the Olympics. Yeah.

You.

That would be embarrassing.

I had another question for Orlando here. Orlando. Who's the best quarterback that you've ever played? So he's played for Lamar Patrick Joe and Patrick Joe.

Time will tell.

Yeah.

It's a fair answer.

I like that answer. Do you think people have forgotten about Joe Burrow?

I believe that.

Yeah.

That's what happens when you get hurt, though. You don't play football, people forget about you.

Yeah. Which I kind of. I like the spot you're in right now because I feel like I love the spot. Yeah. Like AFC. Everyone's like, oh, well, you know, you know, Josh Lamar and Patrick, CJ Stroud. It's like you're forgetting one guy.

Yeah, I agree.

Yeah.

But again, that's part of the game. You don't. If you're not out there and people aren't watching you, then there's nothing to talk about.

Yeah.

So I'm gonna give people to talk about something to talk about this year. Well, I'm excited about it.

I feel like the spot that you were in last year must have been tough for you because you. I don't know how involved you were with the team as you're on the sidelines, but being in that situation where your team's playing meaningful games and you just want to be out there and you're just, like, chomping at the bit, unable to be there. I feel like dad has to take a small toll, mentally at least, right?

Yeah. Very difficult. But I would say, you know, this injury was different than my previous ones because, you know, it was my wrist. So I was like, I couldn't throw and I couldn't do my job, but I could still grind in the weight room and get all my workouts in. And so my offseason started, you know, ten to twelve weeks earlier than everybody else's. And so I think that gives me kind of a leg up on the year. But definitely watching you guys go out there and play meaningful football is tough. But I was excited for Jake because great family.

Great move by you.

Great family.

Your sweet up.

Yeah.

So that was a great.

I'm not using it, so why would. Yeah, I give it to him.

No, you did America a favor.

That was one of those moments where we forget that we actually have a big podcast because we. We complimented Jake's lovely girlfriend, and then I was like, I wonder if he's a fan. And then I. He. I saw he followed us. I was like, hey, man, great game. Yeah, I'm a listener. Okay. No, we were. We were very nice. Yeah.

We were very polite.

Appropriate.

Okay.

But that was nice of you to give him the sweet.

I'm sure.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Why not?

So we talked about this before we sat down, but this is the day after beer Olympics. Me and big cat are sweating out Coors light right now. We're replenishing with body armor, which is great.

Shut up. Body armor.

Getting very hydrated. But every time we interview, it feels like we are at death's door.

The first time, we definitely were. Well, maybe not quite, because I was still feeling pretty good from the night before, but we weren't. Yes.

You remember PFT's question that went nowhere.

I was actually trying to remember that on the way over, and I was like, how awesome was it that this year, you just, like, beat every team? You just destroyed every team. But in the true spirit of that, I asked Hank to write a question for this interview because he's hurting. Hank is, like, a hundred times worse than we are right now, and it took Hank an hour and a half. I had to remind him constantly, like, hey, you got to get a question to me. Took him an hour and a half, and this is the question that he came up with, and it's not even a question. It's just like, Joe Burrow likes to sit crisscross applesauce.

Yeah.

That's comfortable.

So that's. That's next. That's next question.

That's Hank's comment.

Yeah.

So, you like crisscross applesauce?

I'm pro. Yeah. I. That's how I've always kind of sat.

Mm hmm.

It's just my external hip rotation is probably better than most.

Okay.

I don't even know what that means.

Crisscross applesauce is comfortable for me.

So, like, when we're sitting like this, does this mean that we have good external. Oh, yeah.

You're probably crisscross applesauce guy.

I could be.

I just sit like this because you don't look like.

I don't look like a crisscross applesauce.

I just want people to think I. Big balls, but I can sit like this, so you can. I just let everyone know.

What do you think about that guy right there? Max?

Yeah. That's how he says, chris cross applesauce. He looks like a sumo wrestler. He's our little big baby.

It's great.

What I said at the start, though, was true. We can't tell the story apart. My take without Joe Burrow, because that was, I would say, one of the funnest interviews we've ever done, and one of those moments that, like, we point to him as we go through our history, and we're like, that was a big break. That was a big break. But getting to interview the Heisman trophy winner, national champion, 6 hours after you won a title.

Yeah.

So I want to thank you, and also, would you do the same if you ever win a super bowl?

Yeah, I did love how in that interview, coach oh. Was still in coach mode. And he was like walking around the hotel lobby like screaming at players that they're gonna miss the bus.

Yeah.

And they're like, we don't care if we miss this.

Joe was not letting anybody miss the boss.

Yeah.

Do you still keep in touch?

Oh, hell yeah.

Yeah.

He's down and he's living in Miami right now doing his thing.

Yeah.

But yeah, we stay in touch. He's great friend, by the way.

I did a bad job of asking that question. Will you come on? Pardon my take the morning after when you win a Super bowl.

Sure.

Yes.

Okay.

I said if.

Yeah, yeah. When you win a super.

Yeah. When you win a Super bowl. Sounds better.

I feel like maybe this year we'll just pencil that in.

Yeah. Okay.

You don't have to say nor.

We could stay an extra day.

Oh, New Orleans Joe's and he's. Oh my God, it's perfect.

It's probably know if that's the right word.

What a storyline.

Yeah.

Yeah. So I was also trying to think, because we need to, we need to figure out how to recover better as human beings from nights like last night. And I remember reading something that you go to bed every night at 08:00.

P.M. during the season.

During the season. So in the offseason you stay up later as a treat.

Yeah.

Well, you don't watch Monday football?

I do watch Monday night Football, but I'm in bed.

Oh, so you go to bed, you don't go to sleep?

I don't. I don't watch the full game. I'll watch like the first half. Okay. I sleep probably by 930.

Yeah.

Okay. Yeah. Cuz in the fall that would make more sense. I was thinking that in the springtime it's like it's fully late outside. You can't go to bed.

I'm, I'm up. I've got some gaming nights that I have.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Offseason I'm enjoying life a little more.

I'm always jealous of people who can go to bed or I early. Yeah. It's like a superpower.

I mean, I'm pretty dang tired during the season.

Yeah. But still, it is a super power. Because even if I'm tired, I'm like, I gotta squeeze the last hour out of this day doing nothing.

Yeah.

And then it hurts me on the other side.

It definitely hurts you in the morning.

Football season is tough for us too.

Yeah.

But we can't go to bed early.

Yeah.

So it's probably harder on us than.

It is on you?

Maybe way harder. What would you say to Ohio State fans that try to claim you?

I didn't play football there. I mean, I practiced football there.

Did a lot of practicing.

I did a lot of practicing and lifting.

You graduated?

I graduated, I I would say. I usually tell people that I went to school at Ohio State, and I played football at LSU.

I like that.

I got a lot better from practicing at Ohio State, but I didn't get to play, so I don't really say that I played.

That's a fair answer.

I still have relationships there that, to this day that I care about in that building, but I didn't play there.

Yeah. LSU is your playing home.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Do you feel anything when. When Michigan plays Ohio State?

Not. Not as much as the LSU rivalries, I would say.

Yeah.

Yeah.

You never lost to Michigan, right?

No, we were. We were 30 when I was there.

Yeah. So.

Interesting. Very interesting.

Never lost to Michigan. Maybe that's what Ohio State fans, you can't call claim Joe Burrow, but you could say, we never lost with Joe.

That's true.

Yeah.

Is Jamar Chase open right now?

He's always open.

Always open.

Yeah.

Always open.

Are you. Is there ever a moment where he's like, dude, I'm opening. Like, I got it. I got. I understand. Please stop telling me. I get it.

No, I love when receivers come and tell me that they're open, because if they're open, that usually means they are. So I'm going to try to throw them the ball.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

But he is so. He's always open.

I mean. Yeah, for the most part, yeah. If he's coming to the sideline and telling me something, I'm gonna listen to that guy and I'm gonna throw him the ball.

Yeah.

Because it usually works.

Yeah.

Yeah. That's how we work on this podcast. Big cat's always open. So I can. I can kick it right now to.

Big cat, and I can be like, yeah. Hey, Joe, remember when you said that players should taunt? I agree with you.

Why can't. I don't really understand.

Always open.

I think if you're getting paid to play football, you can taunt a. I'm all for not taunting in college, in high school.

Yep.

Once you get paid to play, I think we should be able to taunt, and nobody's gonna get their feelings hurt. Like, we're all big boys.

Mm hmm.

We're gonna be okay.

Yeah.

And if you're in the locker room and you hear the stuff we say to each other in there, it is a million times worse than, like, pointing at a guy and being like, huh, first down, you know? Yeah.

That's the part I think a lot of the media misses is like a locker room. When you go through the trials and tribulations of a football season, like, it's not a regular. You're not going to a nine to five work job. And I always get upset with the anti taunters where I'm like, you're asking these guys to put their bodies on the line, play a super physical game, an emotional game, and none of these guys know how long their career is going to be. Why can't they get the most out of it in every way?

I agree. And you don't see all the little interactions that you have with other players throughout the game that can kind of build tension. And so people are talking shit the whole game that you don't see. And so when you make a play on that guy, just like, if you're playing backyard basketball and somebody's talking shit to you, you're going to taunt that guy if you score on him. I'm gonna taunt somebody if he's talking shit. And then I go, make a good play, and I'll give you a quick story. So when we won, we beat the Chiefs in 2021 in the AFC championship. I posted a picture. Cartier glasses, I won't even peek at you, Lil baby. Shout out, lil baby. And then the next year, Chris Jones gets a sack to basically pinch the game, and he runs up to me after and yells, Cartier glasses, I won't even peek at you. And I was. I just smiled and, like, zapped him up. I was like, you got me.

That's all great.

I love that shit.

Right?

Like, why not?

Like, you wouldn't take it when Angel Reese did that to Caitlin Clark that you can't see. Use somebody's own taunt against them. That's good.

Yeah, yeah, that's awesome.

Yeah, yeah.

It's like, what sports is all.

That's why what sports is all about, right? That's why going to Texas sucks, because everyone's gonna horns down yourself.

I don't know why they get so offended.

It only makes it worse.

Yeah, it only makes it worse. Like, you want to do it even more?

This bothers me. Okay. Horns down again.

They, like, had the big twelve write it specifically into their rulebook.

Yeah, that's.

Can't do horns down.

That's weird. They were doing horns down when we played them.

Yeah.

And I feel like in the SEc. I have an idea that the SEC is not going to cater everything towards Texas football. Big twelve used to sure hope they.

Don'T ban horns down.

Yeah.

Now, when a receiver spins the ball after making a catch. Now that's taunting. Arrest that guy. Throw him out of the game. That was the funniest. When Roger Doe was like, spinning of the ball is now a 15 yard pin.

Yeah, dude, shut the.

That was. When was that?

It was. I feel like ten years ago.

Yeah. Remember when Randy Moss fake moon give Joe boss?

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. He gets mad at us when we bring it up.

Disgusting.

He admits that that was, like, his. His biggest misstep in the booth. He really regrets saying that, but it's very funny that his biggest regret is, like, making fun of a guy taking his pants off.

Yeah, I might. Maybe if I get a rushing touchdown this year, I might bring back the fake moon.

That would be awesome.

It's got to be on the road, though.

That would be awesome.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Do it against Pittsburgh.

Okay.

Oh, do it again.

Speaking of Pittsburgh.

Well, yeah, hold on. I had one question about the taunting real quick. I heard you say once that you don't. You won't start the shit talking, but if someone shit talks to you, you'll. You'll go back at them.

Yeah, I don't usually start it.

Have there been games where there's just no one ever shit talk you?

Yeah, definitely does that.

Not like, do you. Do you find yourself missing, like, a little edge?

Yeah. It's not quite as fun.

Right.

Without should talk.

I wish I'd done this because now people are gonna just never shit talk you. You might have to change your policy. You might have to start shit talk.

The thing is, I don't.

Sometimes I don't know what to say first. Like, I'm not great at, like, coming up with shit talk to say on the fly, but if somebody says to me, then I. Can I get my wheels turning a little bit?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, at what point does the line cross between just, like, saying, oh, yeah, after a play and then shit talk?

Yeah. Well, if. If I start it and then they don't say anything back to me, I kind of just feel like dick.

Yeah.

And because it's gotta be a two way street, I can't just be out there, like, spouting nonsense to the world.

Yeah. Yeah. I got a very important question for you. Do you have aura?

Don't know what that means, dude.

Answer to it.

Joe Burrows got them.

You have the aura okay. Yeah.

Whatever you say. Yeah, you say, I got it. I got it.

You're doing it more. Yeah. This is more.

Or not.

Or you're spitting out. Or stop. Yeah.

No, I think. I think Joe's one guy that you can say in the NFL that's an.

Or a guy.

You just know it when you see it.

Right?

Jaden Daniels aura.

Yeah, I agree.

Yeah.

You like Jane Daniels? I like it. Good quarterback.

I think he's gonna be really good. I like his motions.

Oh, I like that. Did you see his elbow, though? There was a picture of his elbow he had. I don't know if it was bursitis or whatever. It was, like, all funky looking, but I'm excited to have him. Cause I always. I always go back to a Miami Dolphins, Washington football team. Two point conversion back the year before you were drafted. And if we had lost that game, we would have drafted Joe Burrow to the Washington commanders. And that's a big sliding. My life would have been so awesome. Your life, maybe not so great. Just. I know you don't like that field.

I got hurt on that field. Yeah.

Yeah. And I feel that field has been.

The site of a lot of injuries, is. What are your thoughts on that?

The field needs to go. Yeah, I'm anti that.

I remember the grass being great, so.

The grass is good, but sometimes they do this thing where they just spray kitty litter down on it, and then they spray paint the kitty litter.

Yeah, they do that. Pittsburgh.

All right, Jerry. Come on over.

Pita. Sometimes the Panther college team, Pittsburgh, plays on Saturday, and then we get there on Sunday, and we're like, what is all this sand?

Right?

Yeah, I guess it's kitty litter.

Yeah.

I hope it's not.

But low class field, low class organization, Jerry. I said it.

But if you're ever interested in coming to Washington, we'd be. We would love to have you.

All right, Jerry. So, Jersey Jerry, Diehard Steelers fan, he said he has two questions. He said the third question, he couldn't ask.

Yeah, I'm not gonna ask the third one.

Okay.

I just don't think it'll fly.

Okay, let me read it. You have it?

I think.

Oh, you deleted it. Okay. You can type it when you go back. You're whispered to me. Whispered to me real quick. No, you can't ask that question.

Okay. Ask me after.

I'm protecting you. Yeah. Here we go.

And thank you, Pft, and big cat, for flying me out here for this.

When you played, you were with us yesterday. Who specifically home yesterday? I know, but you were with us.

We flew them out.

Yeah.

All right, Joe, when you play the Steelers, can you feel TJ Watts presence on the outside and if so, what does it feel like?

Yeah, I can definitely feel. TJ is a unique player in this league. There's no other defensive lineman that I have to treat like a DB. Like I have to be conscious about where he's at because he's just gonna jump up and catch it.

Yeah.

And there's nobody else that can do that.

So would you say he's like, is he more of a threat than Miles Garrett?

You would say, I mean, I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna fair.

He just goes around Miles.

I just a different. You have to be alert for him in the past game, which is very unique, I'd say.

Take the compliment.

I love. Jerry's question was literally, what's it like feeling TJ watt behind you?

Yeah. My last question is.

That's actually a good question, I think.

Okay.

Would you rather win the Super bowl this year? You play like shit in it, but you never play football again or go to the Super bowl for the next five years. You lose every time the Super bowl, but you win five straight MVP awards.

Ooh. He can't play football after he wins the snow.

I'm one career.

I'm one and done.

That's it.

That's fucked up.

But it's the next five years and then I can continue to play after that.

No, no, no, no.

You're saying he's done playing football. Done playing football for good. But you go out, win the Super bowl, it's nothing like nothing happened.

But if I went five straight MVP's and then I could go out the 6th year and win the Super bowl.

Yes.

That is tough. It's basically guaranteed Super bowl. Have to retire 28 or 31. Nobody doesn't have to retire.

Nobody's third.

I'm gonna, I'm gonna bet on myself in that 6th year and take the.

I love that. I love that. Yeah. Thank you. Just. Good answer. Oh, do you want to, do you want a game with him at the. What games do you play?

I called gaming. No, I don't play Call of Duty.

Come on.

Too many. There's too many. Like, I'll hop on there. I'm a right shield guy. Oh, my God.

Those are the worst guys.

So I can't, I can't shoot with anybody on that game because I'll hop on like once every couple weeks and everybody's already grinded like 38 straight hours. Yeah, I get. They know all the camping spots, and they know all the head glitches. And so I get killed. Like, I get spawn killed, and then I just get demoralized and I don't play. But I haven't been playing this one because I got to level 55. And then there's an unlock challenge to unlock the riot shield.

Yes.

And I can't do the unlock challenge to unlock the riot shield, so then I gave up.

But would you game with Jerry? If you guys, would you game?

Yeah.

All right.

Love that.

All right. You'd gaming them? Yeah.

Hundred percent.

Okay. So I asked that specifically because before we got here, I said, are you gonna ask Joe if you. If he'd game with you? And Jerry said, I'll never. I'll never game with a. A Bengal.

No.

And then the minute he's in front of your face, he's like. He's like, oh, yeah, I'll game with you.

It's.

It's. That tune changed very quickly. He was, like, adamant, like, I'll never game with jokes.

That's wrong.

What other games do you play, really?

The only game I'm playing right now is my friends from home play pro clubs on FIFA. Okay. Star wars battlefront, two. I've been playing a little bit. That's kind of it.

Yeah. Is that, like, what you do to unwind?

Used to be. Not much anymore.

Yeah. Are you getting more comfortable being famous?

I am, I would say.

I think it's very difficult.

Yeah, sometimes. But I'm starting to just, like, not really give a shit anymore, which I think is good. And it's just a very odd I life. And so I'm starting to just starting to be a little more open, because it came. It became exhausting to try to keep as many things private as I wanted to.

Yeah.

So I'm getting better at it.

Yeah. I mean, I can sense that you are. It's also, I always, like, appreciated that you kind of were open. You're like, yeah, being famous is weird because a lot of people are famous. Like, this is the best thing ever. It's like, it can't be the best thing ever.

So I wear sunglasses indoors because I'm a people watcher.

Yep.

And now when I people watch, everybody's looking at me, so I make eye contact with everybody in the room.

Yeah.

And that is just the weirdest thing.

Yeah, yeah.

And that is like, every time you look around, you get that, like, jump in your stomach of, you know, why.

Are you looking at me?

Yeah.

Yeah. That's why we're dying.

The corner.

Yeah, we get that. We get the people. People watch us. Yeah. We have infinite more fame than us.

Ours is more like, what's that freak doing?

Yeah.

Or, he should not be here.

The best way I ever described it is every bar we ever walk into is a gay bar just for us. That's it.

Yeah.

Every dude turns around, every girl's.

Yeah.

I do. I do empathize with women and understand what they must go through.

Yes.

Yeah.

I say the same thing. I sometimes feel like a hot chick. Yeah.

Yeah.

Because everyone's guys are just looking at me.

Yeah. Bros. Yeah.

You're like, yeah, you. But you in that equation, you're like a New York ten. We're like a Indianapolis five.

Sure.

Yeah, whatever you say.

And the girls in our situation, like, who are these losers? Yeah, I would imagine. And the girls in your situation, like Joe Burrow, will you marry me?

Yeah.

A little different.

Yeah. It is weird, though, when you talk about fame. I don't think that the human brain was ever set up to have millions of other people have opinions about you. Right. So there's nothing in human history where millions of people could even know your name. And now you've got, like, enemies, you've got haters, you've got people that love you, that have never met you. And it can be very, very overwhelming to be able to process that. And the fact that you've reached the point where you realize, you understand, I don't have to give a shit about any of this is a big thing.

Yeah.

It's a. It's a cool step to make. Also, you're not that active on social media, I don't think.

Yeah, I don't.

That helps.

Really enjoy that.

Very good.

I'm starting to be a little more active, I would say, because I was pretty active back in the day, like, in high school. I would make some, like, funny tweets.

Mm hmm.

Or some funny vines.

Cleveland Cavs jersey.

Yeah. Like, something like that. It's a great picture. And so I'm starting to do a little more of that because I kind of enjoyed that, but I just stopped because, like, social media is weird when you're in my position. Yeah.

Because no matter what you say, everyone's like, oh, that's like, yeah, what the fuck?

Yes. But I would also say. I can tell. I can see why some people go crazy.

Yeah.

Especially, like, people that get famous when they're, like, twelve or, like, 13 or 14.

Yes.

And I empathize with that.

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I think that also your perspective is probably a lot, based on your path, because you went to Ohio State and you weren't the starter, and you got to live that, and then you, you know, obviously blew up at LSU, but you got to see both sides, where if you had gone to Ohio State and was a Heisman trophy winner your first year, but you might have a different perspective.

100%. Yeah. I wouldn't be the person I am today, that's for sure. I got to live the backup quarterback lifestyle back then, and that was fun. Got that out of my system, and then I was able to walk in.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Starting is a lot more fun. I would.

A lot more fun. I would love to be back up, though.

I would.

It seems like.

I mean, it was pretty fun for a couple years.

I'd like to be a third string. You don't have to be that, because you're really, like, if you get to the third string, everyone's like, well, we're gonna suck anyway.

Yeah. I wouldn't say I was super happy.

Yeah.

But I did have fun.

Yeah. Yes. Yeah. Yeah.

And so when you say that you've been getting more active on social media, I saw that you did your first dump.

Yes.

Your first photo dump.

Yeah.

Which is. Yeah, that would be fun. Social media let people see my personality. Here's the shit that I.

That would be a dude's rock moment. I'll just say, you don't have to do it, but if you do it, I'll support it.

Yeah.

100%. Yeah.

But doing the photo. Photo dump is very powerful.

Yeah.

We make the excuse. We say, like, oh, I gotta unload some memory on my phone. So here are all the pictures where I look the best that I'm gonna put.

Yeah, exactly. That's exactly what it was. And that first picture, I was playing chess with a random guy on the street in France, and I had him on the ropes, and then I blundered my queen away, and he dismantled me after that. And there was an international chess master that was watching us right there.

Mm hmm.

And every move that I make, he'd be no good. And then I tried to, like, the first time I tried to ask him, he's like, no English. And so he was just. No. Chirping me in my ear. No good.

No.

Every time it was tough.

And you couldn't shit talk him back?

No, I couldn't do it.

Well.

Didn't understand me.

Is there anyone else who plays chess in the Bengals locker room?

My friend Cheeto. He just went to Tennessee.

Okay.

He was. He was always pretty good. We used to play.

Oh, no. Is that gonna. Is that like, a storyline we need to grab onto? Like, Joe Burrow lost his chess partner.

Mmm.

Yeah, I did lose my chess partner.

That's bad. So I'm gonna find a new chess partner.

I do have to find.

That would be a great way to have, like, that the Matthew Stafford Cooper cup connection, where they do breakfast every day. Like, somebody on the team that wants maybe more receptions should learn how to play chess every morning. Me and Joe play chess. You developed its bond together.

I'm with that. I like that.

Yeah. I'd say that's a good way to do it. Do you have any. Do you have any heroes right now? Because I remember when you were in college, one of your heroes was deli, which I always appreciate about you, Matthew Delvedova. But as you're at this level, do you have, like, guys that you look up to in other sports still?

I mean, I respect people's skills and what they do. I wouldn't say have heroes, though. I think my perspective on that has changed a little bit now that I've met a lot of those people that were my heroes and they're just people. And so I would say my perspective on that has changed over the last several years.

Yeah. Yeah. Hey, can. Pop quiz. Can you name who this person is?

Zach Taylor.

Okay. Yes. He knows his football.

I do know my coach.

There's probably a lot of people who don't. I know. I'm saying not, not Bengals, but. Oh, I feel like he's got an unassuming look that.

Yeah, I would agree with that.

When, like, the national, like, public football fans, like, I know that guy's a coach. Zach Taylor. He's great.

I feel like maybe that's a part of the reason he doesn't get the respect that you.

I agree.

He needs a thing.

Yeah.

That makes him stand out. Like, I don't know, an earring or.

Maybe like a top hat or like a suit on the sidelines.

He should swap names with his brother Press.

Yes.

Cuz that would be a thing.

Yeah.

Oh, shit. This guy's name's press?

Yeah.

I remember the first time I met press, I was like, what? What do you mean? Your name's press?

Yeah. That's an interesting. It's interesting that his. Their parents went Zach.

Yeah.

And then press. I think they're like, I didn't like that name. Let's do this one.

Let's go crazy.

They were warming up. I think confidence. After you get one rep in, then you're like, okay.

Yeah.

We can get a little bit crazier with a play calling in the second quarter.

Press Taylor is a great dude, but also crazy name.

I agree.

Yeah. What do you think the perfect football schedule is in terms of weeks and.

By weeks, how many games are we playing?

You tell me.

18.

Gotta have two bye weeks. And I think it'd be cool to do. I've said this before in interview, like, six games or, like, normal bi week schedule that it is now. Have it spread out. But then, like, week 13, do, like, the Pro bowl break where you're doing, like, the seven on seven and all the skills challenges, like the. Like the NBA does, because I think that would get more ratings for the Pro bowl.

Yes.

And then it would also give everybody that by week going into, like, the last six games.

My big idea is, especially now with the expanded College Football playoff, you do the week before Christmas and no NFL college football playoffs. Give everyone a break to go do their shopping.

Yeah, I'm with that.

Yeah. And then you get everyone reset. The whole league is on a level.

Playing field for the guys that are injured that would be able to potentially come back. And you want your best players.

Yes.

Out there as a league, you want them in the last six weeks of the season. You want your best players on the field. So I think that would be a smart idea.

I think we fix football and then you get the. You get the president's day Monday after the Super bowl off.

Is that what that would. That's where I was gonna ask, when would that Super bowl then fall? Cause that would be a challenge. But that would be perfect.

Perfect.

I also think that'd be just good for fans where you can just, like, take a weekend to be a normal human being.

Right.

And not have to sit on your couch for 12 hours.

Yeah. We just. We have to, like, do, like, a p. Maybe like, an amber alert out to everyone being like, just remember, you don't have to say there's no football. Like, I would just tell my wife. I'd be like, I'm gonna skip the games this week. Yeah, no games.

I like that.

Yeah, she'd figure it out in two.

I love you so much. More than football. So no football today?

We give it up.

You'd have to, like, pretend to check your phone all the time to look at the scores. Oh, no, I'll put this away. I'll put this away.

Yeah, exactly.

Like, prop it up in the corner and, like, just play, like, YouTube videos.

Yeah. Right, right. We also have a big idea in terms of outfits, so you started to do some cooler outfits. Going to the game. Do you bring a losing outfit?

Yes.

Okay, good. Because that was. We've always had this problem. Wherever. If you're going to wear something crazy, the game. Love it. Go for it. If you lose the game, you got to get into sweats. Yeah.

You can't show up to the presser in the.

Right.

In the outfit. If you play like shit, you lose.

Okay. I like this. Yeah. Like, Cam Newton, who we like, but he used to show up in the top hat after a loss. Maybe don't do that.

I think it depends on what I walk in with. I wouldn't. There's definitely some that I wouldn't wear to the post game losing presser. I would show up in my depressed sweatpants.

Yeah.

What's. What's the craziest thing you have? I mean, you probably haven't planned any out, but, like, what's the one that you've done that? You're like, that was. I went out of my comfort zone.

Mmm. I wore a. This wasn't into the tunnel, but it was on the plane when we were playing Vegas in 21. I wore, like, a sweatsuit that had all these colors and crisscross lines on them with a Dunder mifflin blue Beanie and red.

And pulled it off.

I did pull it off.

Here's a crazy one you could do. And this is like, crazy fashion because I obviously wore the backless suit. What if one week you just wore a t shirt that just had me and PFT's face on it with no back? No back.

I'm with that.

That get made.

That could actually be. That could be the losing shirt.

Shame. Backless t shirts.

Yeah.

Oh, with your guys face, that would be an all time clip. If you have to answer a bunch of, like, hard questions after loss, then you stand up and walk out.

Yeah.

Oh, what if you did backless pants?

Mmm.

Now we're talking.

So that's chaps.

Yeah.

You think you get maybe a fine from the NFL for that?

Yeah, I would hope so.

Yeah, that'd be worth it.

It's like, remember when LeBron stood up from that press conference and he was in those shorts? No, I don't remember suit on, but it was like, shoot suit shorts. And everyone's like, whoa. That was what you were wearing, dude.

Interesting.

Yeah.

Leg reveal for LeBron.

Do you have.

Does Evan McPherson have your number yet?

Evan McPherson has my number.

Okay. All right.

He didn't before Super bowl.

Definitely had my number. I texted him on draft night.

Okay. Okay.

He said that he didn't. He would, and, I mean, it had.

To be a lie.

We gave him the business about that, and he seemed like he was very insecure.

I'm sure he was lying.

So how quickly after a guy gets drafted do you reach out?

Try to reach out within a day.

Is there. Is it undrafted guys, too?

Used to.

Okay, okay. So you got to be, what, like, what about a 7th round? Are we reaching out?

Yeah, try to.

Okay.

Okay.

Undrafted guys get a burner. Burner cell phone.

Just got my second phone, so I'm just now getting into the burner.

Oh, nice.

Yeah.

Smart. Yeah. The undrafted guys. Yeah. They have to. They have to kind of stick around for a week or two before you can.

Yeah. As I'm getting older, you know, guys are coming in and out so much. It's definitely harder to remember everybody's names. As you're getting older, I would say.

Yeah. Is the window open?

What does that mean?

You know what that means? You're that badass quote, man.

It's always open.

You're like, yeah, the windows open if I'm here.

Yeah.

I was like, that is.

I mean, awesome. If you don't feel like that, then why are you playing football?

Right?

Yeah.

Right now, that's also one of those honest answers that then people are like, oh, he's so cocky. He's like, no, he's honestly showing you his confidence.

I mean, what do you want me to say? Like, oh, we got two years left, and after that, we're gonna sell the.

Caps, gonna get tough.

We're gonna make some hard decisions.

You should say that. Be like, ah, secondary's getting older. We're gonna have to move some money around.

Yeah. It would be funny if when you. You gave, like, an undrafted guy your burner cell phone number, and then instead of doing, like, Athenae at college, where they do the scholarship reveals, you just reveal to him when he makes the.

Rock, like, always freaking out on the last cut day. Like, go up and write it on the board. Like, there you go, everybody. Yeah, that's it.

Yeah, there's the number. Oh, congrats on beating the Browns, by the way.

That was in 2022.

We haven't seen you.

Yeah.

And it was the only time you beat him.

That was the only time I've beaten them, yeah.

What is it about the Browns?

They're good, man. They got good players.

They're not that good. And then they. They just kind of have your number.

They got our number.

Yeah.

Miles. I mean, Miles Garrett plays a big part of that.

Yeah.

Their dbs are really good. They got Denzel, Greg Newsome, Emerson over there. Then their safety is really good. They got really talented players.

I'm happy you beat him, though, because that. That's, like, the one thing, and this is a fan's perspective. I know you don't give a shit, but you never want to have, like, a quirky, weird stat, like, follow you around for a while.

I need. We needed to get that one. I'm hoping we get two more this year.

Right. It's like Peyton Manning won two Super Bowls. Never beat Florida.

Really?

Yeah. Never. You. I. You could say that anytime. Like, never before.

Did he start four years?

Yeah.

Never be Florida. Alex Smith went, like, a year and a half without throwing a touchdown pass to a wide receiver. That was fun.

You got to get rid of those. Yeah, you did that. You got rid of the quirky.

People are going to use those against you, right? Sure.

They just throw it out there. Yeah. Never beat the Bronx, which seemed you.

Like beating the most.

I mean, any division team.

Yeah.

Any division team.

Yeah.

Stealing the Chiefs is fun.

Yeah. Brohead.

Yeah.

Do you like that nickname?

I mean, I'm gonna ride or die with my guys, so if they're saying it, like, I'm gonna go with it.

Yeah.

But I would not say. I would say that.

Yeah, but you wouldn't. You would nod if I said Brohead.

No, you're not on my team.

We can't say.

It's low key facts. We're not allowed to say, okay, I think it's Brohead.

I'd even. This just popped in my head, and we've had, you know, Josh Allen. We actually had Joe buck on after this, but how long did it take after the Demar Hamlin thing for you to, like. For everyone, like, okay, we're good. We can play football again, because that was definitely weird. Yeah.

I mean, it got late in that week, and I was like, guys, we were playing football.

Right, right. You don't think about, obviously, the story is the bills and Demarlandhouse, and it kind of gets lost that you're also on that field.

Yeah.

And dealing with similar things.

Yeah. It was definitely a challenge, I would say. But fortunately, he was all good, and, you know, he's doing his thing now, and I've seen him at all these events and always happy to see him because he's a great guy. But that was. That was a scary moment.

Yeah.

For sure.

Yeah.

And I. It was like, you and Josh that really let everybody know, like, don't let's not play football. Right.

What did Josh say?

Yes.

Josh said it was you and him.

I wouldn't. I think it was more so our coaches that kind of made that decision. But once we left the field, I think it was a collaborative. Both teams were like, what are we doing? We're not going back out there.

Common sense prevailed. Yeah. Thankfully, yes.

Yep.

All right, so I got a couple last questions. It's been awesome. It's great catching up with you. How's your brother doing?

My brothers are doing great.

He's a big time PMT fan.

Big time.

Yeah.

He's actually, he's the one that put me on to you guys back in the day. He would. We'd be. He would come to Baton Rouge and we would, like, drive to New Orleans. Wherever we were driving. He'd throw you guys on whenever we were driving.

Dan, right?

Dan.

Yeah.

That guy.

Dan Burrows, the man.

Yes.

He's the connector of all this. We have to thank Dan. Yeah, he's listening this right now. Dan, thank you.

Can't tell the story. PM.

Open your eyes. You're driving. Stop. You just got lost there for a second, Joe.

I got. I got a product idea that maybe. I know that you're getting into brands recently.

Okay. Is this gonna be one of your good business ideas or when your bad business.

I don't like the tone. You just. There.

They're all my best one yet. Name one bad business idea I've ever had.

I mean, the last time I was on, I think we had a pretty bad one.

What was that?

You told me to go to XFL.

Oh, no, no.

Yeah, UFL or whatever.

Yeah, no, there's a private conversation Joe and I had.

I was.

I was working. I was working the phone before the XFL back in 2020. And I was like, I. I think I can get you like 50 mil guarantee and you should do that.

Let me, let me.

That was, that was my worst business.

Let me come to the support of my co hosts here. The fact that you remember that means it probably wasn't that bad or left.

A mark or the really bad ones do leave a mark.

No, the really, though, anyone that sticks around, you're like, damn.

Okay.

Maybe there was some truth in that.

Well, that. Yeah, that league lasted several weeks.

Yeah.

You'd be as rich as you are today. I was good. I was going to tie it into body armor.

Okay.

So I've been trying to invent this product for like ten years called bro teen. And it's a recovery drink and it's got protein in it, but it also has alcohol in it. So you drink it after the gym as you're pregame to go out.

So it eat the good and the bad even out. It's a neutral.

No, it's just too good. You think alcohol is bad? Alcohol is good. Oh, they're both good things.

How do you guys feel today?

I got excellent.

Terrible. I retired. I retired yesterday. So.

So on the way over here, I was thinking about protein, and I was like, you know what? I do feel terrible right now. So what if we eliminated the. The alcohol?

It would be a good hangover remedy. Yes, because a little hair of the dog with some protein.

That's true.

Yeah.

If you do that in the morning, afterwards, I think it'd be good. But then I was like, what if nobody makes, like, sleep protein? Nobody. Nobody's weaponized sleep yet. If we market, like, aggressive sleep and you drink a protein drink that also has maybe alcohol, but maybe, like, melatonin in it knocks you out overnight, your body recovers.

I like this.

Right now, everyone's wasting their sleep. They're not getting better when they're sleeping.

Casein. Protein. That's what you drink before bed.

What is it?

Casein.

It's the slow absorbing stuff. Right. So, yeah, you put that in there with whatever's in Nyquil and maybe some booze. Yes. You fall asleep and you wake up stronger every day.

You're pitching me like, I'm like, well, you.

You got some money?

I do have some money.

And you got body armor on your shirt.

Yeah.

You're an entrepreneur.

I am not. I don't think I have money.

You could just. You don't have be. You just have to say you're an entrepreneur.

Oh, really?

Yeah. Bill Belichick's girlfriend. Entrepreneur philosopher. Yeah. You could just say you're an entrepreneur. Like, I'm an entrepreneur. Entrepreneur.

Okay.

CEO of life.

Yeah. So what do you think? You taking it?

I mean, probably not. I would have to see, like, a.

Little business plan, body armor sort.

You hear the word probably there?

Yeah.

That wasn't a. No, it's not.

No, that was a problem. I think it's got legs, but we'll see. If not, you can always join the XFL again.

Okay, there's probably not. All right, I have one last question. It's Roback. Question rho back.com promo code. Take 20% off your first purchase. Cusps, polos, hoodies, joggers, shorts. Roback.com promo coutique. Also, thank you to body armor for getting us here. We love body armor. The only water we drink. Only drinks. We drink in the office and everywhere. I've seen you at UFC fights are you. Tell me your top two fighters right now. I love that you're a UFC fan.

Alex Pereira. He's fighting this weekend.

Okay. We're going to air this after, so give us a prediction.

Very fun to watch. He's going to. I think he's gonna win.

Okay. This will suck if this.

Yeah.

Are you going?

No, I'm not going.

Okay.

I'm. My friendship was my traveling for the next month, and now I'm good. I'm locked in.

Okay.

And then suga.

Okay. Sean O'Malley.

He's electro fun.

Yeah.

He's electric.

We've hung out a couple times. He's a good guy.

Oh, nice.

Yeah.

Have you ever been in the tunnel of chaos?

What does that mean?

Should we tell them about the tunnel of chaos?

I don't know if we can talk about. It's a place in Las Vegas that you go and then you tell them how much money you want to win, and then you win that amount of money.

Oh, well, that sounds like a great time.

It's great. And the real reason is you're just gambling with Dana White's money.

Dana, bring me to the tunnel of chaos, please.

Yes, yes. I mean, he literally sits there and.

He'S like, I've heard stories of his legendary gambling.

Yeah, yeah.

He just gives you money. He's like, okay, now that you lost all your money here, just double it. Next. And most places are gonna keep doing that at blackjack, but since Dana, I think, runs that casino, he's double it again.

Probably owns Vegas.

Yeah, he's doing okay.

Yeah, he's doing okay. Are you? Last questions.

No, I think my last question was the business opportunity that he is probably going to accept.

Yeah. Oh, wait, Jerry, come back for one last question. I want. I want you to.

Not the third question.

Not your third question. Not the third question. But I know. I know, because this Jerry's always been thinking about. He's just walked right in front of the camera. You can. You can ask him what you think about what he thinks about your guy. Go ahead. Yeah.

Mm hmm. Honest opinion.

You're a quarterback.

Rossi. Does he still have some left in the tank?

Yeah, yeah, I think so.

There you go. You sure? Because I say vision rival.

I know, but I say it to everybody, and they call me crazy like Jerry. You're crazy. It's over. Rusty's. You know, Rusty's not gonna be good anymore.

Time will tell.

I think he's gonna be really good.

Oh, no shit. But, like.

But you guys make me feel like, oh, Jerry. Like, you're crazy.

That's the great thing about football, is you find. You're going to find out in September who has it.

Yeah. True. Yeah.

Prediction, though. Prediction. Can you give me a prediction?

I think he'll be good.

Oh, no.

This is a separate question. You can put. You can put your. Your team first. If you were to predict right now, the AFC north, you can pick Bengals first.

Who do you think.

How do you think the other three.

Fall Bengals first and then. I don't care.

Yeah, that's the good answer right now. Jerry knows you're a winner, and he's upset about that.

Yeah. Aura is getting to you.

Mm hmm.

There's too much. Yeah.

I'll be honest. I don't want. I'm gonna be honest. I never liked you, but I'm sitting in the chair and I'm like, fuck, he's cool.

Yes.

So now I got a. If the Steelers aren't in all row for you, okay. But still is.

Earn it.

I can't.

Okay. That's all good.

Cool. Yeah.

I really loves all the jobies.

Yeah. Yeah. All right, Joe. Thank you. As always. You're the best and best of luck this year.

Yeah, thanks.

He looks like a giant booger.

He's the worst. He's the worst fat fuck. Okay, meet me first pick.

I believe big cat does okay. Right?

Do I not?

How many have we done?

Three. Four? Three.

We can look this up.

Look that up. So get it right. Let's look this up while Max is looking that up. Quick. Charlotte the Stingray update. She died.

Oh, yeah.

Allegedly. I don't think she's dead. I think the aquarium, they just got too much shit. They got caught in their live by certain podcasters, and they know they. After they said that she's not really pregnant, then they had to pretend like she died.

Okay, so I was second last week. The last one we did. I was second. So I'm first, right?

Yes.

Okay.

Yep. And it goes clockwise.

Yep.

So I'm last. Snakes back around.

Okay, I will go meet steak.

It's a good pick.

One. One. I love steak so much. Did you guys have any steak this past week?

I did a lot of steak.

I had a lot of steak today at NASCAR.

Yeah.

Good daytime steak.

It's a. Steak is just always there for you.

Yeah.

It's like. And it's. We'll get into more meat. There's a lot of great meats, but steak is that meat that. I don't know if you guys feel the same way. You say, like, oh, I'm eating a big steak tonight. Yeah. Like, that's a. That's a get ready plan. Steak dinner. Let's have. Let's do it. Let's do a steak dinner. Tahoe.

Yeah, let's do it.

Let's fucking do one. The boys.

So you get all steaks with that, I think. Ribeye, filet mignon.

We were saying it. We could do a Mount Rushmore of just steak.

We could. Yeah.

Time. Yeah, but, yeah, we were saying, like, hamburger does not count, obviously, as steak. Correct. Yeah.

You're not taking beef. Not taking cow. Steak. Yeah.

Steak.

Flank steak.

Steak.

Skirt steak.

Steak. Oh, yeah, skirt steak. Little marinade.

Hank, what about steak tips?

Yeah. Oh, yeah, steak tips. Hank, did you. You seem shocked that I would take steak one.

No, I'm not shocked. I thought I had the first pick, and that was an obvious one. One. So you were gonna go steak. Yeah, I'm. And I'm not doing great. This year you're fine. Oh, you know, a little in my head. I'm gonna go chicken wings.

Fuck.

That way. Good pick.

Actually, I had them. One. One.

Don't overthink it yet. Don't overthink.

Good pit.

That's like you eat, I think probably chicken wings more than steak.

Yeah, yeah.

I mean, that's not. Yeah, but that's.

No, I know.

Everyone probably eats chicken more than steak.

Chicken wings is my favorite.

Healthier.

It is. It's.

Trinity. Too much to eat.

It is. I would take it one. One in a food draft.

Or actually, you should probably eat more steak because it's low carbs.

I think.

Yeah.

Burgers.

Aha. Good pick.

A pick.

Good pick, Max.

All right.

Also had some burgers this weekend.

I'm gonna go bacon.

Mmm.

Bacon. I feel like that's a, that's a good fourth pick. And then I'm gonna follow it up with hot dogs. Mmmdh oh, hot dogs. You don't like hot dogs?

I like hot dog.

Now I use as a meat, though.

The quality of meat. Hot dog is not good.

Pft in Chicago it is.

I love hot dogs. So problem with this.

But I was hoping I was gonna get burgers and hot dogs. Yeah, that would have looked good on Hank.

Does it taste good? Yeah, it's good meat, then. I don't care if it's lips, asshole, whatever they put into it, I don't want to know. It tastes good. And I used to. I used to be like a hot dog, not a hater, but I I used to kind of put hot dogs to the side. But then you have a good hot dog, and you're like, holy shit. This is actually good meat.

Trust tree. I grilled a lot this week for my family, and every single time I grilled, the grill was, like, kind of where we were on vacation, the grill was kind of, like, out of view of the kitchen area. Every single time I grilled, I just ate an entire hot dog or sausage. Wow. Grilling. And then came back, and I was like, dinner's ready. Oh, I'm hungry.

Hot dogs are great.

Just sitting there eating it and just not letting it, you know, just. Way to go.

Shouldn't the Mount Rushmore meets be something you don't need condiments for?

I don't need a condiment for. I need some sport peppers.

Wait, Hank, you don't need any sauce or chicken wings?

No, listen. Well, we had dry wings tonight.

Dry wings, no, seasoning.

Those have a little season, I believe, on him.

Yeah.

I don't think it's just.

Yeah, Hank, you walked into that one.

Yeah, but you don't eat hot dogs without a bun.

What?

It's hamburgers too.

All right. It's a bad, bad point by Hank. For the record, I think.

No, I think it's a good point. I think I know real meat. Attician would say that the best meat that you don't need anything else for, like the great. But the best steak you ever had.

Yeah. I don't think you're real meat rider, because I think that.

I think now it's getting personal. Yeah.

I love hot dogs.

I love hot dogs.

I eat them raw, but most people don't.

Can we put them as glizzies?

You eat them more raw dogs.

No, I think they have to be hot dogs.

Two buns.

Two buns.

Now. I used to do that.

Okay.

What?

Max, chaser bone.

I'll take fried chicken.

That's a good pick, Max.

Good pick. I also had that on there. Okay.

Strong start by Max.

Hey, I am going to go with.

Come on, Hank.

Better be good one.

All right, should I go with option one or two?

Two. One. I don't know. Just pick ribs. Fuck.

Good pick. Hank, let me ask you, do you put any condiments on your.

No, sorry about it.

So I agree, Hank. That, like, ribs should go over hot dogs.

Yes.

Love hot dogs. Ribs should have gone over hot dogs.

I had ribs higher on my list. I just went with hot dogs.

Ah, fucking a, man. Ribs. Damn it.

Ribs is good.

Great pick. That was gonna be my pick. I thought for some reason I was gonna get all the way back. Ribs would have been okay. I'll go with my pick.

Come on, you.

Hey, don't, don't. Don't do that. That. Don't do that. I didn't do that to you. I didn't do that to you, my friend. I will go with duck.

That's a good pick.

Ducks are great meat. White. No.

Explain your face as a bougie picnic.

Uh, no.

What is bougie?

Bougie ducks.

Not a bougie pig, but it's Mount Rushmore of meats.

Listen, I, in all honesty, does meats.

You get her bougie places.

That's true.

Duck is. Is fantastic.

Yeah.

Duck is in my top three foods.

Nah.

Yeah, I find. I'll go. I'll go back. Listen.

No, no, no.

I have duck. I'm saying this is the beauty of me as a person, not Max. Little fucking hamburgers and chicken tenders over there. I went duck. And then the next pick I'm gonna go with his sausage. Cuz sausage is.

That was mine. That was my.

Yeah, so I can do it all. Bitch. How you like them apples? How you like them sauce, apple, sausage.

Sausage or hot dog for the rest of your life?

Sausage. Easy. There's so many different sausage.

Yeah. You can get. Yeah, yeah.

Breakfast, you get dry sauce italian sausage with. With pasta, it's sausage.

I'd say hot onions.

Hot dogs too.

I don't know. That's.

Rest your life one.

It's not even close.

Think of all the cookouts that you would have to go to not eat anything.

But think of all the time. Nobody talking. Yeah.

Like, I'd go, hot dogs.

It's sausage.

Sausages are so good, man. They're so good. Okay.

I'm gonna go.

I can't believe you took ribs. What was your other one? Yeah, tell us your other one.

Brisket.

Okay, good pick. Good pick.

Happy I got it back. Yeah, probably. I probably like brisket more than ribs. I just knew I wasn't gonna get ribs. But brisket is my favorite, favorite barbecue food. Absolutely delicious.

No seasoning.

No, I knew how to. If I knew how to make one, I would do it all the time.

Smoking meats. We're smoking a bunch of meats.

Okay. This is gonna be a good. This is a good Mount Rushmore.

I'll go pull pork.

Yep. Had it on there. Had it on there.

Good pick.

You were gonna go sausage? I fucking love.

Oh, yeah. I mean, I just started giving you all of my arguments for why sausages.

Yeah. I mean, it's the best.

It's such a versatile me. You can have italian sausages, breakfast, lunch and dinner. It can be the main of every. Of every meal.

It's a great point. Great point about my pick.

I love your pick.

All right, my next pick. I'm gonna go dino nuggies. I'm gonna go with lobster. What do they call it? Claw meat? Tail meat?

No.

Good Friday. Good Friday. You can eat lobster, you can't eat meat.

Okay, well, we're not. It's a meat.

Okay.

I was thought.

I thought for some reason I should have given you guys more credit that you weren't gonna go there, but no.

I had on the list. I had on the list. Absolutely. Max is just to his fucking caveman. Well, I just didn't think duck and lobster. No, no.

I just don't think fishes. I think fish is a different category.

We asked the pope if he approves.

Is a lobster fish?

It's seafood.

It's not a fish. Fish.

Is also meat.

Yes, there is also.

I disagree.

I know. I wouldn't, I would take meat.

I grew, I grew up saying that meat is different than fish. Like, you could eat meat.

You grew up in a house.

You can eat seafood on, on good Fridays and let your dad.

Also, soup.

Good Friday isn't a meat draft.

Yeah, good Friday. You can't eat meat. Memes back me up. Were you allowed, were you, were you allowed to eat fish on Fridays and let.

Yeah, fish.

Fish on fish.

Right.

Yeah, fish fry.

Because you can't eat meat.

I understand.

You can eat lobster. Lobster.

Yes. You can eat lobster on Fridays in lent because you can't eat meat.

But if you're a vegetarian, that there's.

Yeah, well, no, I, but like pescetarians, I say they don't eat meat, but I eat fish.

But if you say you're, they say I don't. And I, if you say you're a vegetarian, I don't eat meat. That person is not going to eat lobster.

But the pescatarian would say I don't. They would say I don't eat meat. I eat fish.

Yeah, those people suck.

Yes. Meat is considered meat because it is a crustacean and a type of seafood.

I actually might hate the pescetarians more than I do vegetarians. Because at least stand on something. Like if you're not going to eat steak and sausage and ribs and all these things, don't then also eat, like, lobster. Stand on something. Just be no me.

We haven't had a contentious Rushmore yet. This is good.

There's, and there's a lot on the board like this. It's usually you're scraping at the bottom of the barrel.

This is like a lobster.

Okay. You have another pick.

Yeah, my last pick. Titties.

What?

Titties is meat.

Great choice.

Thanks, Max. I think titties are meat.

When was last time you ate titties?

You suck on them.

Yeah, but that's not eating them.

I think titties counts as meat.

So are you saying that you're a cannibal?

No, just saying titties.

Okay.

You can look at them.

I don't know. I mean, that's okay. We do have a lot of meats left.

I think titties are so many meats left. I'm like really struggling for what to go with here.

Well, we have to deal with. Pft. Just saying.

Yeah. I mean, that just took him out of the city.

No, I would actually just pandora.

Yeah.

No, I love titties.

That's a pander pick.

We rattled.

Yeah. Graphic. That's. That wins.

You like. That's lizzies and titties.

That's not a meat.

I.

Which one do you like more?

I think that you guys are. I think this makes his watch first significantly worse.

But is titties of meat? No. I think that you could take chicken breast.

Titties is meat.

Why? In what way? We're talking about meat that you eat.

Is it the Mount Rushmore meat that you eat?

Oh, my God.

Fact or fiction?

Well, I don't think I've ever, like, swim meat. Yeah. What if titties ever been referred to as meat?

Good question.

Like, a cock has been referred to as a meat.

Yep.

Mmm.

Ever. I've never heard someone say, look at that. Those meat.

Look at those meaty titties.

No, no, I don't want to look at those.

I say that all the time.

Maybe, like, a pepperoni gets thrown somewhere there, but.

Okay. All right, listen. If you guys know it, if you guys don't want titties on that list, because I think. I think it's just not a meat.

It's not a meat. That's the only problem.

Explain how titties is a meat, and we can.

Yeah.

Slide.

Make us a pitch. On what? On. On the spirit of this draft. Titties being a meat.

They're made out of. They're made out of meat and fat. No, they're not made on milk.

So you're a can of.

No, I've never eaten them, but.

Okay, then how to get on your.

Mount Rushmore, because you can. I enjoy looking at the meat. Okay, I'll take it off the list. I'll take it. I'll take it off the line if this. If this is gonna be a big thing.

No, it's not. You keep it on.

I want you to keep it sounds like. I think it makes your list worse.

It's not. It just doesn't. It doesn't make any sense with what we like.

Putting titties on any list is gonna make it pop.

Yeah, I. But I think then when you see them stacked up against each other, like.

Yeah, you talking about titties?

It's gonna be like, oh, why they just say titties?

It's a curious.

Yeah, okay, I'll take it off.

What do you think means? You be the judge.

I was so confused when he said, I'll take it off the list.

No, you keep it on.

I want him to keep.

No, no, I I'm taking off.

Is he keeping it on?

It's been under protest.

Super.

I vote him. I want him to keep it on.

We vote no.

I vote yes.

Memes.

I don't think it should count.

Okay. Cuz I just don't get it.

Okay.

Yeah. All right, go something else, then. Memes will be the arbiter of these memes. You're the judge now going forward, because you're the only one who's not had done that pics here. So even the commissioner memes has to be the guy now.

Okay.

Right. Should we all enact them?

Yep.

Commissioner memese.

Commissioner memes.

Yes. Now, you can you admit that was. That you were trying to get cute with it?

I'm getting cute with it.

Yeah.

Yeah. I mean, that was. I was never arguing that I wasn't getting cute. So I guess instead I will do smoked turkey leg.

Okay, that's a good pick.

Turkey leg.

I had it on there.

Walking.

Snag it on my list.

It's a good pick.

That's a good pick.

Me.

Yeah.

I'm gonna go meatballs.

Ooh. Okay. I didn't even think you like the.

Big ones or the little ones.

I just like, like a nice homemade meatball.

Think about the meatballs.

If you go to italian restaurant, you got a meat. You got a couple meatballs for the table to start the meal. Really judge how an italian place is. And I had others that I. That I thought of. But meatballs is. Is the true answer to myself. And I went. And I went true to myself instead of pandering to the public. No, I mean, the public loves meatballs.

Yeah, the public loves meatballs. Everyone loves everything on this list. It's me.

It's gonna be closely.

It's gonna be a close list. And I think my only concern is, like, I would probably put a fish here, but I also think there's gonna be a lot of people who, when they see the list, they're gonna be like, fish shouldn't count as a meat.

I disagree with those people.

I disagree with those people too.

But, like, lobster was a very good pick.

I agree.

I agree.

But I don't want to then add a different fish to it. I'm just gonna go like, max with my gut salami.

Okay, good pick.

I could eat a whole.

Yeah.

Multiple rolls in a day.

I got a question about a technicality ass.

No, no.

I also had ass on my list.

I thought about a technicality pick as well, but I just went and went away with it.

What was your technicality?

One, I thought about saying prime rib, but I thought it was too close to steak.

That is fake. Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay, here's my technicality question. Chicken parm.

It's fried chicken.

Yeah.

Is it? Yeah. Yeah, it is, but it isn't. It is, but it isn't, but. Okay, that's fine.

It's steak, if that's fine.

It's a specific type of meal.

But.

But the, the main ingredient. That's why chicken breast.

That's why I asked. Um. Okay. Shit. Now. Hey, now, Max. In my head about being bougie. He's in my head about being bougie. Go bougie.

Max.

Yeah. You have sausage on there.

Don't let.

Can't believe this one lasted. Lamb. Fine. Lamb is good. Yeah, I like lamb.

Very, very thin meatloaf. Yeah.

A good meatloaf is good.

I slept on ribs. I should not have done. I should not have done. Hot dogs. Hot dogs.

Hot dogs is how you got titties.

Great.

Third.

Yeah.

But I think hot dogs led to titties.

I think if I got hot hot dogs, it would have played because it would have gone burgers, then dogs on the list. So the combo of the two would have been like, oh, that's a strong start.

Yeah. Okay. Good list. Good. Good job, boys. We got anything else? Let's go to chill week. So we'll be in Tahoe. We're gonna. We'll be live from Tahoe on Wednesday and Friday. Got some big interviews planned.

Why do you keep guys have clean laundry?

No. Cause I. Yeah, I just got back, so I've got a suitcase I was planning on just putting directly into the wash.

I do that every time. I actually don't ever not have a suitcase that's full of clothes.

Yeah.

It's either full of dirty clothes that has just been sitting, waiting to go in the laundry the day before I travel, or they're clean clothes because I'm going to travel.

Yeah. I just looked at my suitcase and I thought if it was good enough for grease, it's good enough for Tahoe.

Yeah.

I'll just run it back.

Yeah.

It's gonna have a look at the weather.

It's gonna be hot. It's gonna be hot out there. But, yeah, I'm excited for Tahoe. Shane's here.

Shout out, Shane, I. Yo, Shane.

Shane. How was your week?

Hello.

What? How was your week?

It was great.

It was great. Did you do anything fun? Went home, visited the family? Yeah. You go out?

Yeah.

Would you wear. Would you wear when you went out on the boat? No. Like, did you go out after? Yeah.

Or Sasha into a double gainer off the boat.

Oh, fuck. First time on a boat, right?

Yes.

What did you wear?

Um, I wore some nice.

Nice khaki color pants and a.

A new vintage charger.

Just got off depop.

It was a section.

It was a sick shirt. But it's just very funny because I made up the lie, like, two months ago that Shane, only when he goes out, he just puts on his best charger shirt and then sent me a picture for July 4. Shane just risen it up with his best charger shirt on.

Well, to be fair, I didn't have a charger shirt before I got this.

Charger shirt, so it is my only.

Wear chargers gear every day.

I only have sweatshirts. I have.

No, I have sweatshirts and I have jerseys.

God, those are.

You got your shirt. I'd like to see that charger shirt and tahoe.

I will wear it in Tahoe.

It would also be cool if the charger sent me more shirts.

Are you listening, Chargers?

He said he's a double xl.

I'll. How about this, Shane? I'll fund your chargers.

First thing Shane's ever said on the show is, let me get some charges.

Shane, I'll give you a full shopping spree in Chargers merch if you promise. And you have to give this promise that every first date you go on for the next year is Chargers.

What does that mean?

Like, a Chargers game or.

No. What are you talking about?

You said every first date has to be charged.

That's what you wear.

Yeah. That's what you wear to a first date. Yeah. So, like, even if you go like y'all, we're going to a classy spot. Chargers polo. All right. Just the offers out there.

I just want to be clear.

I didn't ask for. I just said it would be cool.

Yeah, but I'm telling you, the Chargers don't come through. I will come through with that one stipulation that you go chargers on every first date.

Can I think about it?

Yeah, absolutely. You have as much time as you want.

Perfect.

Hey, Shane, I got a question for you.

What's your decision, by the way?

I need some more time. This is, you know.

Okay, Shane, I have a question.

Yes, sir.

Our titties meet. Would you consider titties? Meat.

Has just, like.

Are we talking about consumption or just me?

Yes.

I think it's more fatty tissue, but I guess by the technic like that. I like that.

I guess, technically.

Have you ever eaten a titty?

I don't think so.

Okay, so you're not a cannibal. That's pretty good, correct? Yeah. I want. I want. I want your chart. I like. Dude, we can get some sick charges.

That's what I'm saying.

Like, we'll find. I might even buy you a suit. That's just chargers.

Get the. The Donny does. Susie. Yeah, you can get a suit, jersey.

I want you in chargers stuff all the time, every date.

I'd be happy to wear it.

Okay, so you. You made your decision.

You snuck that in at the end?

I don't know yet.

Okay.
