country, promoting signature dish,

1:40

and he just did good day LA

1:42

before this. uh... same exact kind of

1:44

show this in good day l a

1:46

same vibe yeah don't you think oh

1:48

yeah same energy rhythm yeah i got

1:50

bumped for a traffic helicopter they're like

1:52

listen we got a we got a

1:54

brother of those you got to cut

1:56

the helicopter yeah was it was it

1:58

a uh... high-speed chase no just like let's

2:01

look how beautiful LA is. Yeah high

2:03

speed chase would be kind of tight

2:05

to get bumped for that because those

2:07

when those happen we all get very

2:09

excited. Do they happen that often? Oh

2:11

yeah I think I would argue they

2:13

happen well often is a subjective

2:16

term but I would say at least once

2:18

every other week right I would say twice

2:20

a month is fair. Oh my god.

2:22

Oh yeah do sometimes in the summertime when

2:24

crime is that it's high? That's when

2:26

it's like every week. You're catching one

2:28

a week. Yeah. Okay, okay. So I'm

2:31

not in the season of it, right?

2:33

You're not really, you're a little early.

2:35

In 2022 there was 971 pursuits and

2:37

348 of them resulted in a crash.

2:39

Hell yeah, dude. That's insane. That's pretty

2:41

good odds. 900 pursuits and only 300

2:43

crashes? That's like one and three crashes.

2:45

Yeah, 33 percent is, but no, but

2:47

that means... Good for who? The criminals?

2:49

The criminals, 66, 66 percent of you're

2:51

going to you're going to get away.

2:53

If I'm a criminal on the run, and

2:55

if you told me, there's a 66%

2:57

chance you can outrun the cops, I'm

3:00

taking it. No, it's not outrun, it

3:02

didn't crash. Well, dude, if they didn't

3:04

crash, they probably got away. It's still

3:06

a win. If you don't end up,

3:08

thank you. If you don't end in

3:10

a deadly accident. Yeah, and that's a

3:12

W. Chalk it up. By the way,

3:14

I don't know if you've watched enough

3:17

of enough of these to know. a dangerous

3:19

enough situation where they feel like they're they're

3:21

putting themselves in danger they do let them

3:23

go and they publicly talk really well because

3:25

it's at some point it's like they can't

3:27

they're not gonna sacrifice their life to catch some

3:29

guy who most likely is like you know skipping a

3:31

skipping bail and he's out and he robbed a gas

3:33

state it's like yes something low low he didn't kill

3:36

anybody he probably did something stupid and then was scared

3:38

to go back to jail and then was scared to

3:40

go back to jail and you know I mean

3:42

that's usually what it's usually what it's usually

3:44

what it's usually what it's usually horrific they're

3:46

not in a police chase the police chase

3:48

guys just don't want to go back to

3:50

jail because they just got out for robbery

3:52

and they're doing it again it's true dude you

3:54

got to let him go man yeah and and by

3:56

the way the dream for everyone in Southern California is

3:58

to get to the Mexico If you can get

4:01

to the border, you're home. How far

4:03

is it from here? It's pretty far.

4:05

San Diego is like two and a

4:07

half. Three hours, give or take, but

4:09

I mean with traffic. I mean, that's

4:11

doable. How many miles is here to

4:13

the border? Tijuana is probably 300 and

4:15

something, maybe? How many kilometers for the

4:17

people overseas? Yeah, if you don't mind.

4:19

Because we do want to. How do

4:21

you visualize a mile in your head?

4:23

I was just thinking about this. When

4:25

I was growing up, my dad told

4:27

me the distance from her house to

4:29

the school was a mile. And I

4:31

still, to this day, when I think

4:33

about a mile, I think of the

4:35

distance from my house to my school.

4:37

That's really interesting. That is really a

4:39

mile to me. I always saw a

4:42

mile as... Because I ran track. Oh,

4:44

okay. So if I could four laps

4:46

around yeah if I can physically visualize

4:48

four laps around something like if I

4:50

could unravel the four laps I'd go

4:52

that's about Four laps tracks away or

4:54

When I first went to Arizona State

4:56

I went to college there. I remember

4:58

this might this might have not not

5:00

be true anymore because they changed but

5:02

Campus main campus was one square mile.

5:04

It was exactly one square mile. Okay.

5:06

So I was like that big chunk

5:08

of space to me it's like that's

5:10

how far that is to the interesting

5:12

you still kind of think about that

5:14

when you say yeah that is funny

5:16

because the miles are hard well because

5:18

you know when you're on the highway

5:20

and each if each exits are a

5:22

mile if it says a mile away

5:25

yeah it comes up so fast you're

5:27

like that is a That is crazy

5:29

to think how short it is when

5:31

you're on the freeway and how long

5:33

it is when you're on standing ground.

5:35

ASU is 660 acres, aka 1.03 square

5:37

mile. I mean, that's close enough. So

5:39

I was right. Yeah, 1.03. 1.03. 1.03.

5:41

1.03. I remember, somebody had told me,

5:43

they're like, oh, campus is one square

5:45

mile. So if I had to see,

5:47

if I was skateboarding around it, yeah.

5:49

What was your mile time, your peak

5:51

mile time when you were running? I

5:53

was never good at mile. I was

5:55

good at, so I was a sprinter.

5:57

Sprinter. I was good at four by,

5:59

four by fours. Each of us do

6:01

a hundred, you know, or whatever? 400.

6:03

400. 400, sorry, yeah, the four by

6:05

four. With the baton? Really? Four by

6:08

four. Okay, so what do you think

6:10

about this going on where the the

6:12

girl hit the other girl with the

6:14

baton? Love. Yeah, yeah. But you have

6:16

expertise, is that possible to do that

6:18

by accident you think? No. Absolutely not.

6:20

No, it's it's that by the way

6:22

the amount of timing that you need

6:24

to line it up it's so deliberate

6:26

that she thought about I bet in

6:28

her dreams she was like I'm gonna

6:30

hit that woman in the head so

6:32

hard when I come around that turn

6:34

I bet there's been so many races

6:36

where she's wanted to do that 100%

6:38

and then something about this one girl

6:40

didn't like to look well it's rubbing

6:42

his race in NASCAR theatrics in in

6:44

foot races now because for years NASCAR

6:46

has a code of like who you

6:48

can bump who you can rub who

6:50

you can take out okay like a

6:53

seniority thing or what it's kind it's

6:55

like in but there is a you

6:57

hear them tell the other they'll tell

6:59

the pit I've heard them tell the

7:01

pit they're gonna do it in it

7:03

and it's like excusable if it's like

7:05

if you bump me but I deserved

7:07

it I have to like take that

7:09

hit so to speak. Okay. It's almost

7:11

like a, it's extremely proper. It's very

7:13

formal. NASCAR for those who don't know,

7:15

no, it's colloquial. It's extremely, it's very

7:17

like bowed to the senior and if

7:19

I screwed you over, cut you off,

7:21

and you tap me, it's almost like

7:23

a, it's like I deserve that. Wow.

7:25

Yeah, it's not, you know how like

7:27

in hockey, when a teammate will fight.

7:29

Because someone else clicked or or cross-chactor

7:31

did something to their teammate, but it's

7:33

well respected by the other team Yeah,

7:36

it's almost like that's what has to

7:38

happen That's what used to be the

7:40

case in baseball, right? As if you

7:42

did something it was just the understanding

7:44

you were going to get peg when

7:46

you're up at bat and and by

7:48

the way And it was part of

7:50

it both sides knew it yeah, I

7:52

could be wrong about NASCAR experts going

7:54

to be like that I know how

7:56

goes one bit But I met a

7:58

after a show who played the MOB

8:00

in the late 70s early 80s and

8:02

I was asking him about baseball now

8:04

he was talking about all these bat

8:06

flips everybody's doing oh yeah at home

8:08

run you throw the bat up a

8:10

hundred feet in the air and I

8:12

said what would you do if somebody

8:14

did that against your team and I

8:16

said what would you do if somebody

8:19

did that against your team and he

8:21

said the next time you slid in

8:23

the second I'm taking that glove and

8:25

I'm smacking you as hard as I

8:27

can he's just how we did it

8:29

I think putting the bat down softly

8:31

is so boss. That's always the move

8:33

is acting like you're not even impressed

8:35

with what you just did. It just

8:37

happened. It was the coolest part about

8:39

Bo Jackson as he never looked like

8:41

he cared. He would jump up a

8:43

wall, run up the wall and catch

8:45

it, then just throw it in like

8:47

it was a routine play. Right. And

8:49

then like look at his arm to

8:51

see if there's a scratch. Like didn't

8:53

even celebrate, he would just be like,

8:55

did I hit the wall there? I

8:57

think I think Bo did the same

8:59

thing the same thing the same thing

9:02

in the same thing in football in

9:04

football in football? where when you score

9:06

a touchdown, that old, I don't even

9:08

know what coach said that, but like

9:10

act like you've been there before. Is

9:12

that a Lombardi? It sounds like a

9:14

Lombardi. John Wooden. Yeah, it's gotta be

9:16

one of these, yeah, it's gotta be

9:18

one of these old school. Urban Meyer,

9:20

somebody like that. Someone who wore a

9:22

suit, someone who had respect for the

9:24

game, but the act like you've been

9:26

there before, my dad used to say

9:28

that. Lombardi. It was Lombardi. When you

9:30

score a touchdown, they want to, no,

9:32

don't, you don't need to celebrate. But

9:34

you would not be that way if

9:36

you were in the NFL. No! I'm

9:38

showing off. You're doing something wrong. You're

9:40

getting fined every game. Every single game.

9:42

I can't wait, I can't wait to

9:45

see the celebratory dances that these younger

9:47

kids come up with together. As long

9:49

as, my opinion is. If it's team

9:51

celebration, if you're with your, if you're

9:53

doing it with the squad, great. I

9:55

don't like the single, the single celebration

9:57

is two me, me, me. This is

9:59

not about you, dude. It's about the

10:01

name on the front of your jersey,

10:03

not the back. Vince Lombardi, once again.

10:05

It's not, as soon as it's gonna

10:07

be, it's not about the sponsor on

10:09

your top left sleeve. It's not about

10:11

Pepsi, it's about you. But I do

10:13

think that team celebrations are so much

10:15

more respectfully fun, because it's like we're

10:17

all in on it. When you see

10:19

one guy do one thing, like T.O.

10:21

used to do, you're like, brother, that's

10:23

why people are mad at you, because

10:25

you're making it all about you. You

10:28

didn't, you didn't block, you're like, you

10:30

didn't, you didn't block, you did nothing.

10:32

But when a team goes out there

10:34

and does a dance together, you got

10:36

any love? I mean, no, you never

10:38

get any, you never get the credit

10:40

for when something happens, you only get

10:42

blamed. And I was a center, so

10:44

I mean, any time a snap is

10:46

bad, I was blamed. So anytime a

10:48

quarterback drops a snap now in the

10:50

NFL, my instinct is still like, well,

10:52

let's not blame the center. Like, catch

10:54

the ball quarterback. I go, it's hard

10:56

to snap. When it's raining out and

10:58

there's mud, it's hard to snap a

11:00

football. Yeah, give some respect to centers

11:02

to centers. who we have now coming

11:04

in the historic pipeline between like Cal's

11:06

you know like there's guys now that

11:08

have kind of made centers phenomenal again

11:11

and like notable again you don't think

11:13

so yeah I mean they're I mean

11:15

are we talking about their performance on

11:17

the field when people idolize those guys

11:19

what's his name why can't I think

11:21

with with paid many Jeff Saturday Jeff

11:23

Saturday okay another guy that like made

11:25

himself outside of the game that's true

11:27

but that's two versus 500 wide receivers

11:29

you can name. Yeah, I know, but

11:31

they're the showoffs and they're the pretty

11:33

boys. You guys aren't the pretty boy

11:35

showoffs. You want centers to start showing

11:37

off a little bit more? I would

11:39

like to see it. Our offensive line

11:41

in high school as a unit, our

11:43

motto was when we would break down

11:45

just the offensive line, we would say

11:47

Packers on three, parachute Packers. Because our

11:49

coach made us identify with there's a

11:51

unit in World War II where all

11:53

they did was pack parachutes. for paratroopers

11:56

they never jumped they never actually all

11:58

they did was pack the parachutes and

12:00

so they never got the credit right

12:02

but obviously they couldn't have done it

12:04

done it without them so you got

12:06

to learn to love the process and

12:08

love not necessarily getting the glory but

12:10

knowing you were important to what happened

12:12

so that's like the motto of an

12:14

office I'm getting fired up I was

12:16

just gonna say you're vibrating right now

12:18

I'm such a sucker for that kind

12:20

of stuff well it is important to

12:22

instill that in young men in team

12:24

sports because otherwise going back to what

12:26

we just said it just becomes all

12:28

about me it's like a it quickly

12:30

can be a me mee mee game

12:32

and by the way yes the NBA

12:34

as a kid growing up in Chicago

12:36

with Jordan to me was it was

12:39

basketball and baseball that was all I

12:41

love football I like the Bears but

12:43

I didn't play football I played basketball

12:45

baseball and basketball and basketball and basketball

12:47

the NBA became today this me me

12:49

thing that you see these young kid

12:51

games they're like he dropped 80 you're

12:53

like well so nobody else got the

12:55

ball like there's nothing impressed there's not

12:57

doing this yeah they're putting their hand

12:59

down like oh it's crazy it's just

13:01

not impressive I see this kid he

13:03

comes up on my feet every now

13:05

and then it's like a kid mikeded

13:07

up in a child oh yeah literally

13:09

game and he's miked who do you

13:11

think you are oh I know this

13:13

is insane the little kids now in

13:15

uh what's the football league that i

13:17

can't remember the name snoop dog yeah

13:19

well yeah with the uh... it's big

13:22

here in california it's like the little

13:24

league football but it's like the top

13:26

it's like what a u is for

13:28

basketball you know my league grown up

13:30

was we were called the midgits yeah

13:32

hey man do you want it? slow

13:34

down slow down i mean it's a

13:36

historical reality it is we were the

13:38

midgits Montgomery midgits yeah well no no

13:40

that wasn't the I hope we ever

13:42

called it that. I would have to

13:44

guess they've changed that by now. 9798.

13:46

But this is Alabama, dude. They might

13:48

still be doing their same. We're starting

13:50

to rename all the public schools down

13:52

there. Really? I just looked the other

13:54

day. The high school right by my

13:56

house was Robert E. Lee High School.

13:58

I think it became Lee High School

14:00

and then I think they changed it

14:02

to like, I don't know, Maya Angelou

14:05

or something. I think they changed it

14:07

to, which I mean, they should have,

14:09

I don't know, but it's just, they're

14:11

all changing. It's the sitting rebels, the

14:13

resting rebels. The resting rebels. I think

14:15

the difference of when we were growing

14:17

up, this whole like coat of team

14:19

mentality thing, was that you didn't have

14:21

social when we were kids to show

14:23

what other kids were doing, you had

14:25

to hear about it? Yeah. So that

14:27

was more of like a mystique. If

14:29

there was a kid. who was phenomenal

14:31

in the conference. You'd hear by way

14:33

of people being like, do we were

14:35

at summer league? This kid is unbelievable.

14:37

But there was no show off tape.

14:39

You know what I mean? There was

14:41

no way to like brag. So you'd

14:43

have to play him and he would

14:45

cook you live. And then you'd go,

14:48

damn dude, that kid is unbelievable. It

14:50

was. It really was. And also the

14:52

opposite. My coach and I never got

14:54

along in basketball and his son played

14:56

out of conference. So we never really

14:58

played them in summer league. and I

15:00

remember when we played them in summer

15:02

like I've told this before I couldn't

15:04

wait to guard him so I took

15:06

it all out on his kid I

15:08

filed out within the first half I

15:10

filed out dude I beat him I

15:12

hit him as hard as I could

15:14

every time down I'd follow him as

15:16

hard as I could I went for

15:18

the neck like three times and by

15:20

the way my coach didn't say a

15:22

word about it because I think he

15:24

understood like the baseball you know hitting

15:26

some of it was like this is

15:28

a this is what you get what

15:31

you get that was I played eighth

15:33

grade eighth grade eighth grade basketball and

15:35

eighth grade basketball and in the same

15:37

a foot shorter. So I was a,

15:39

you know, I was a locker room

15:41

guy. Yeah. I wasn't contributing much on

15:43

the court, but every now and then

15:45

I would get put in the game

15:47

two foul kids to stop the clock.

15:49

I was the bruiser and I leaned

15:51

into the roll. I mean, I think

15:53

I did the math at one point.

15:55

I got thrown out of a game.

15:57

I got thrown out of more games

15:59

than I had minutes played. In the

16:01

season, my parents stopped coming to the

16:03

games quick. I mean, it was probably

16:05

humiliating for them. And I would just

16:07

bulldoze kids on the court. And the

16:09

bench would be dying laughing and then

16:11

I'd have to get out of the

16:14

game. But mission accomplished. I did what

16:16

I had to do for the team.

16:18

That's right. Once again, you're a backer

16:20

for life. But then we did that

16:22

thing at the end of the season.

16:24

I remember the coach was like, all

16:26

right, we're going to let all the

16:28

kids that. and I mean it was

16:30

the worst probably 14 seconds of basketball

16:32

anybody's ever I got pulled so quickly

16:34

dude I remember I inbound at the

16:36

ball and I hit the back of

16:38

the backboard it bounced out so we

16:40

lost I mean I'll turn the ball

16:42

over twice in like 14 seconds and

16:44

coaches like all right this is a

16:46

failed experiment let's get the starters back

16:48

in there but I'm glad we tried

16:50

you know yeah you need a speech

16:52

or something at halftime yeah I was

16:54

the guy senior year of high school

16:56

for football. This is Pope John Paul

16:59

II High School, Hendersonville, Tennessee. And they

17:01

didn't change that, hopefully. Because Pope John

17:03

Paul, did he do anything wrong? They

17:05

could change it to Saint John Paul,

17:07

because he became a saint since the

17:09

school was started, so they could. Okay,

17:11

change it. I don't know. A Pope

17:13

sounds great. I'll have to check in

17:15

on that. Pope's, I think, Pope Prep

17:17

that go by now. Pope Prep, you

17:19

know that's in the, Pope, that's in

17:21

one of those like, oh, oh, oh,

17:23

Pope, go night. But they let a

17:25

senior give a speech to the team

17:27

before every game. And I got to

17:29

tell you, dude, I destroyed that speech,

17:31

too. I contributed very little on the

17:33

field, but that speech. I still think

17:35

about it every now. I really worked,

17:37

oh I worked so hard on it.

17:39

I wasn't doing comedy yet, I had

17:42

no outlet. Right. You know, it was

17:44

the 10 year anniversary of Columbine. Oh

17:46

God. And I, you brought that up?

17:48

That's what the whole speech was about.

17:50

It was a Columbine massacre. I, it

17:52

was a pet peeve, not a pet

17:54

peeve, but I noticed that a lot

17:56

of time, people would just make analogies

17:58

to war with football. Yeah. And I

18:00

remember thinking, I'd like to do something

18:02

not about war. in the Columbine massacre

18:04

who's in the library when it happened

18:06

and he hid behind a desk or

18:08

something and then he ended up taking

18:10

his own life ten years like years

18:12

later because he couldn't live with what

18:14

he didn't do in the moment so

18:16

no joke I said fellas Boys when

18:18

we wake up tomorrow. I don't want

18:20

any of us wondering what we could

18:22

have done tonight It was such a

18:25

reach in retrospect, but I was so

18:27

proud of that dude, and I think

18:29

it fired people up. Did they win?

18:31

Uh, we did win. There you go.

18:33

We won that game. I mean, I,

18:35

and I like to take a little

18:37

credit for that. That, that, and, you

18:39

got to give a little credit to,

18:41

to, to, Clebold Dylan and the, and,

18:43

and, and, and, and, and, and, and,

18:45

and, and, and, and, and, and, and,

18:47

and, you must, Clebaldin, Harris, yeah. You

18:49

must, Cle, Clebaldin, Clebaldin, and, and, and,

18:51

and, and, and, and, and, and, and,

18:53

and, and, and, and, and, and, we

18:55

got to, and, and, and, and, and,

18:57

and, and, and, and, and, and, and,

18:59

and, and, and, and, and, and, and,

19:01

and, and, and, and, and, and, and,

19:03

and, and, and, and, and, and, and,

19:05

and, and, and, You're going to hide

19:08

behind a desk? You're going to get

19:10

out? I do want to know, I

19:12

thought if he hid behind a row

19:14

of books, I'd want to know what

19:16

books he hid behind it, if that

19:18

affected him as well. And at what

19:20

point do you take a book out

19:22

and read it? Because you're sitting there

19:24

for a while. Yeah, it's a long

19:26

time. Absolutely horrifying. Think of cops get

19:28

in? You're like, come on, let's go.

19:30

He's like, I'm lost in this book.

19:32

in X players that are now either

19:34

pro or did something to give speeches

19:36

a lot. That was a big thing

19:38

because we had my tenure of school,

19:40

we had an unbelievable amount of people

19:42

go pro and different stuff. It was

19:44

kind of crazy. We had Chris Brown

19:46

the running back. I don't know if

19:48

you remember, but at Northwestern with Gary

19:51

Barnett and then left and went to

19:53

Colorado with him and he was like

19:55

big in the NFL at one point.

19:57

Then we had the two McCarran brothers

19:59

and this is all like while I

20:01

was in my four years of school.

20:03

Justin and no, no, no, no, older,

20:05

older, older, Justin and Justin and older,

20:07

older, older, Justin and God, what's his

20:09

brother's name? So they would come back

20:11

and fire up and give some love.

20:13

Yeah, yeah, he was big on that

20:15

Henry Damer. Yeah, Henry Domer can't. Oh,

20:17

Domer can't do that. Domer can't do

20:19

that. And our sister's school was the

20:21

one of the greatest female basketball players

20:23

of all time in, um, Cheryl Swoops.

20:25

No, no, no. God, how old you

20:27

think I am? Yeah, Kansas Parker. Yeah,

20:29

Kansas Parker. Yeah, Kansas Parker. The girls

20:31

from double teamed. Oh, yeah. Double teamed

20:34

on Disney? Double teamed! It was a

20:36

Disney Channel original movie about two twins.

20:38

This is pre-WMBA. Because I remember at

20:40

the end of the movie, they go,

20:42

you know, they do like a where,

20:44

what happened now. And they're like, they

20:46

join the new women's professionally. But it's

20:48

about two women basketball players. What's the

20:50

name of the girl? Who are the

20:52

actresses? Heather and Heidi Burge. Yeah. But

20:54

who, that's the real name of the

20:56

actresses? Yeah. The Burge sisters? Where are

20:58

they now? Yeah, those are the real.

21:00

Where are they now? Look up where

21:02

the Burgh sisters are up to and

21:04

out. They're still acting. I think they

21:06

were both, they both played in the

21:08

W NBA. But that must have been

21:10

like 30 years ago. I don't think

21:12

they're dead. Aaron from 97 to 98.

21:14

Wow. They don't want only one year

21:17

in the league though. That's pretty tough.

21:19

What a success story. That's a movie

21:21

about it. Yeah, that's a speech from

21:23

the locker room. You want to play

21:25

one year in the big show? That

21:27

was the most heartbreaking thing, by the

21:29

way, was me going to college and

21:31

then befriending college athletes and seeing some

21:33

of their dreams like come to fruition

21:35

and other people have to quit playing.

21:37

Well, did you go in with the

21:39

expectation of I might play? No, good

21:41

God, no, nothing. No, no, no. I

21:43

went in just to go party and

21:45

have fun. Yeah. I gave up high

21:47

school. I knew that was my end

21:49

of the train. I was like, this

21:51

is it. This was just for fun.

21:53

That was me at 11. But yeah.

21:55

I waited. Kids started hitting puberty and

21:57

I was like, oh gosh. It's different

21:59

out here now. I loved the intramural

22:02

ball, like I played a lot of

22:04

ball, like I played a lot of

22:06

ball in college with people and in

22:08

college with people and I'd with people

22:10

and I'd practice with people and I'd

22:12

practice with people and I'd practice with

22:14

people and I'd practice with people and

22:16

I'd practice with people and I'd practice

22:18

with people and I'd practice with people

22:20

and I'd practice with people and I'd

22:22

practice with. But then you'd see people's

22:24

kind of dreams, because ASU was a

22:26

home for golf and baseball. If you

22:28

were good at golf or baseball, I

22:30

saw kids every summer come through that

22:32

were like trying to go pro, trying

22:34

to get a spring training, and I

22:36

gotta tell you, it is heartbreaking. Because

22:38

you see them, here they are, they're

22:40

what, 20 years old, or whatever, and

22:42

they have to reconfigure their life and

22:45

go, well, I guess I. I guess

22:47

I don't play sports now. And you're

22:49

like, oh. Yeah, and that's all I've

22:51

been doing. And that's all I've been

22:53

doing. And that's all they know, since

22:55

they were six. I met a guy

22:57

after a show. I talked to him

22:59

for a long time. He was a

23:01

coach of a double A baseball team.

23:03

And he himself had played in the

23:05

MLB for you. He played in a

23:07

bunch of different teams. And he's like,

23:09

we got two or three. And I

23:11

go, how many on your team? Think

23:13

that they're going to and he's like

23:15

all of them you have to I

23:17

guess you have to yeah You have

23:19

to yeah, you have to yeah You

23:21

can't be the guy that's on the

23:23

team that going probably not going to

23:25

go pro Well, that's probably the same

23:28

percentage at like any open mic in

23:30

America, right? Same thing you go all

23:32

of us have dreams and aspirations to

23:34

do this but there's maybe one or

23:36

two that could hack it. Most open

23:38

mics there's you're probably you're probably there's

23:40

got to be less people that try

23:42

stand-up that make it than well no

23:44

the percentage is probably the probably pretty

23:46

I bet it's the same because every

23:48

kid plays baseball it's like one to

23:50

three percent of people that try yeah

23:52

and look at you now do you

23:54

made it I didn't want to wake

23:56

up and think about what I didn't

23:58

think about what I didn't do and

24:00

think about what I didn't think about

24:02

what I didn't think about what I

24:04

didn't think about what I didn't think

24:06

about what I didn't think about what

24:08

I didn't think about what I didn't

24:11

think about what I didn't think about

24:13

what I didn't think about what I

24:15

didn't think about what I didn't think

24:17

about what I didn't think about what

24:19

I didn't think about what I didn't

24:21

think about what I didn't think about

24:23

what I didn't think about what I

24:25

didn't think about what I didn't think

24:27

about what I didn't think about what

24:29

I It all comes back to Columbine.

24:31

You couldn't have done that Columbine thing

24:33

on good day LA by the way,

24:35

couldn't have done that? I tried to

24:37

make an OJ joke to them today

24:39

and they didn't, they moved on quick.

24:41

I go, I don't know a lot

24:43

about LA, I watch a lot of

24:45

OJ documentaries and then they go, so

24:47

you got a kid. They were really

24:49

nice, it's just, you know, you have

24:51

to be such a sterile environment. In

27:25

and let that and have a laugh

27:27

at that. It'd be more endearing for

27:29

the mass public. Like there's just no

27:31

way there's enough people still around that

27:33

are like, I don't like that kind

27:35

of stuff. I just don't buy it.

27:37

I think I think they're a fair

27:39

amount. You do? Yeah. I think so.

27:41

But OJ is such a harmless joke.

27:43

What do you think? They're trying to

27:45

tell ads though. Everything is so commodified

27:48

now. Yeah, well yeah, they nestly needs

27:50

to get in there. They're 50 seconds.

27:52

Ovaltine juice. Ovaltine juice. Get over here,

27:54

Ovaltine juice. But I call her the

27:56

juice. I'm her, I told her, I

27:58

told her doctor, and you know, they

28:00

come in and they go, oh, what's

28:02

her name? And I think I'm gonna

28:04

call her OJ. And this nurse goes,

28:06

I wish you wouldn't. I already got

28:08

some towels monogram sorry, but OJ is

28:10

her that's her initials is OJ. Yeah,

28:12

OJ Weber OJ Weber I thought it

28:14

was like like we just lost one

28:16

Yeah, let's bring another one let's bring

28:18

another one let's restore balance to the

28:20

universe OJ Weber by the way is

28:22

an athlete's name O.J. Weber? Oh yeah.

28:24

My God! O.J. Weber down the wing?

28:26

Oh yeah. I can do that is

28:28

such a good playing. Feel hockey or

28:31

something, dude. Some. Yeah, for sure. Soccer?

28:33

Soccer? Soccer? No. Doesn't have that. Well,

28:35

why? You can really embrace soccer in

28:37

the South the way they have other.

28:39

There's a competition. The soccer players. I'm

28:41

not super proud of, but I think

28:43

it was pretty prevalent. Yeah. Either football

28:45

or baseball. So it's like these kids

28:47

have to make a choice And it's

28:49

like why did you choose the objectively

28:51

lame or sport? That's what we would

28:53

say But where the top look up

28:55

where the top? Women's college soccer schools

28:57

are. I wonder what those are Notre

28:59

Dame's up there, I think I would

29:01

say I would say I would say

29:03

also probably yeah I would say there's

29:05

Stanford up northeast like like Oregon or

29:07

see up in Seattle what is it

29:09

Stanford's number four okay no one's listed

29:11

the top three okay wait wait you

29:14

know oh okay we haven't named any

29:16

yeah I bet you is it is

29:18

it is it is it is it

29:20

is it northeast is it this list

29:22

gave up after yeah Stanford and you

29:24

got tired yeah yeah it's fine I

29:26

bet you is it in is it

29:28

northeast is it northeast is there an

29:30

SEC school in there He

29:32

doesn't know what that means too. He

29:34

honestly doesn't know and don't and and

29:36

honestly It's a big point of contention

29:38

inside the studio here that he knows

29:40

nothing about Is there any is it

29:42

Northeast schools like a Boston schools or

29:44

anything in the in the New England

29:46

area? For some reason you know like

29:48

the layout of America, right? Yeah, but

29:50

some of these not really to be

29:53

honest with you. That's also a big

29:55

harmful D1 ACC school Wake Forest. Yeah,

29:57

it's at North Carolina. That's insane that

29:59

you've never heard a wake for it

30:01

That's how little he watches guess what

30:03

their mascot is. Yeah, that's actually really

30:05

wait for us if you had the

30:07

guess Well, don't look if he's looking

30:09

at it's not showing you Yeah, yeah,

30:11

yeah, no, what do you think it

30:13

is? Something satanic. Yeah, like Yeah. Like

30:15

the Bohemian Grove where they like burned

30:17

that giant owl? Yes. Sacrifice it to

30:19

the devil? Pretty close. Not quite, do

30:21

you know about colleges and stuff? He

30:23

went to a liberal arts. He went

30:25

to a liberal arts school. The Wake

30:27

Forest goat heads. Yeah, that's what he

30:29

did. The demon deacons. All right, so

30:31

who else? Who's number two? That is

30:34

there, number two. Oh, who's one? Number

30:36

one is University of North Carolina. UNC

30:38

is number one. Another ACC school. Yeah,

30:40

it kind of shattered your whole premise

30:42

here, huh? Wait a minute, wait a

30:44

minute. No, yours. You said the South

30:46

is no no to soccer. Oh, man.

30:48

It shattered your premise. I did say

30:50

that. But I'd like to, I'd like

30:52

to, I mean, I actually was just

30:54

proving how wrong you were. No, no,

30:56

no, no, no. We'll pull up the

30:58

roster off air and I want to

31:00

see where these kids are from. I

31:02

wonder why they have such good women's

31:04

soccer programs. But I don't know anything

31:06

about the history of it, but there

31:08

you go though. OJ Weber could ship

31:10

up to... Which would hurt you more?

31:12

UNC or Duke. Neither would hurt, it

31:15

would hurt my... Well, you're an SEC

31:17

guy, right? Well, I went to Notre

31:19

Dame, I'm Notre Dame guy now. But

31:21

I still kind of pooled for the

31:23

SEC, because I grew up there. Because

31:25

you grew up there. Right. Yeah, yeah,

31:27

yeah. Like, yeah. Like, yeah. Like, yeah.

31:29

Like, yeah. Like, are your parents' are

31:31

your parents' parents' Bama. Like, your parents'

31:33

Bama parents' Bama fans' Bama fans' Bama

31:35

fans' Bama fans' Bama fans' Bama fans.

31:37

Like, Bama fans. My mom went to

31:39

Auburn but doesn't really care that much

31:41

and the rest of the family went

31:43

to Notre Dame. So, wow. Yeah, so

31:45

we're fighting Irish man. Have you ever

31:47

talked to Shane about Notre Dame? I

31:49

have. Because he's a hardcore... He's a

31:51

more intense fan than I am. Well,

31:53

but you went there. I know, we

31:56

didn't even go there. Like, I'm not

31:58

going to like follow recruiting while I'm...

32:00

student there. You know what I mean?

32:02

Some people do man. But I didn't

32:04

know many kids that are like on

32:06

rivals every day when like you got

32:08

to go to class there. It feels

32:10

lame at a certain point. Well I

32:12

didn't have to worry about it. I

32:14

went to Arizona State. We had no

32:16

talent whatsoever when I was there. It

32:18

didn't even matter. Like I think the

32:20

last guy to be good before right

32:22

before I left was Jake Plummer, the

32:24

quarterback for... I'm a little bit older

32:26

dude. I remember when Boomer or Sison

32:28

was walking around, can't be like, my

32:30

God. When Naismith was in the hallway.

32:32

Yeah, man, I went to school many

32:34

moons ago, but back then there wasn't.

32:37

We didn't have a lot of talent

32:39

and the Arizona Cardinals were just leaving

32:41

ASU to get their own stadium. That's

32:43

how long ago that was. Do you

32:45

regret going to college now that you're

32:47

not doing it? I think about that

32:49

sometime, you don't. I loved every... It

32:51

solidified some relationships for me that. That's

32:53

the one thing, the new relationships for

32:55

me that, that's the one thing, the

32:57

new generation of kids that you hear

32:59

a lot of people, and if you

33:01

have the financial... wherewithal or ability or

33:03

the gift to get into school and

33:05

to do a college. I recommended for

33:07

the social aspect alone, right? Like it

33:09

was great to like grow with people,

33:11

meet people out of my world. I

33:13

moved across the country. It was beneficial

33:16

for me. I get that for some

33:18

people it's like a waste of time.

33:20

Whatever. But if you look at college

33:22

as like I'm trying to maximize my

33:24

ROI on it. No, then it's terrible.

33:26

Yeah, but I was never thinking about

33:28

it like that. I was never thinking

33:30

about it like that. I was a

33:32

philosophy mate. I mean, I never thought,

33:34

well all right, well I got to

33:36

get this money back. I was just

33:38

never thinking about that. No, mine was

33:40

a sneak away. How could I get

33:42

to get to the west of the

33:44

west coast? and Arizona state was so

33:46

close. You almost got there. Yeah, yeah.

33:48

It's like one state oil. I know.

33:50

I just couldn't afford it. I literally,

33:52

you know, V was like the other

33:54

maybe option. That's even, that's even closer.

33:57

Okay. But still, dude, I couldn't, like

33:59

California schools, I was either too dumb

34:01

or too poor. Because it was either,

34:03

you know, it's like the Northern, up

34:05

north schools. I'm not getting into Stanford

34:07

or Cal or whatever, you know what

34:09

I mean? But if I could, but

34:11

UCSB, I couldn't afford to live in

34:13

Santa Barbara. Banana slugs, right? Banana slugs,

34:15

yeah, banana slugs. Crazy. And, and, and,

34:17

and, and, and, and, and, and, and,

34:19

uh, Long Beach is the, the, the

34:21

dirt bags, is their baseball team name,

34:23

dirt bags, dirt bags. Isn't that funny.

34:25

Well, isn't that funny. Well, Oh, that's

34:27

phenomenal. And we had, I remember when

34:29

the team came, we had a citywide

34:31

vote where we got to pick the

34:33

name of the city, which is a

34:35

fun thing. What do we want to

34:38

rally around as a town? You know,

34:40

what's our identity as a people? And

34:42

it came down to the river rats

34:44

versus the biscuits. Both, both very good.

34:46

World famous Montgomery, Alabama biscuits. That's what

34:48

we're known for. Seriously? No. But by

34:50

the way, how, how, how easy would

34:52

that be true? If you're like, we

34:54

do biscuits, but it's like, sure, I

34:56

wouldn't argue that. You could make and

34:58

they go, okay, I guess they have

35:00

great biscuits. How do you fight it?

35:02

Yeah, you wouldn't even know. We're not

35:04

claiming pastrami sandwiches or something. It's biscuits.

35:06

If I said, where's the most famous

35:08

biscuit? I go somewhere in the South

35:10

and you go, yeah, it's Montgomery. Well,

35:12

that lines up. But I would have

35:14

loved to have been in the room

35:16

where they start cooking up ideas because

35:19

they did biscuit cannon at the games.

35:21

I'm not kidding. They shot biscuits like

35:23

a t-shirt cannon but biscuits into the

35:25

crowd. This is incredible. And you got

35:27

concession stands that serve breakfast food. Selling

35:29

gravy? Did they ever have gravy attached?

35:31

I think there's definitely gravy in the

35:33

ballpark. By the way, because biscuits and

35:35

sausage gravy might be when it's done

35:37

right, one of the greatest breakfast sides.

35:39

So good. So good. All meals, but

35:41

breakfast is the only one I give

35:43

a shit about at all. It's the

35:45

only one I care about. No, and

35:47

now they tell you that's like the

35:49

one that you should skip. Don't care.

35:51

And what are they? Who are they?

35:53

Nutritionists? The powers to be? Right. Elon

35:55

Musk? You need to skip breakfast and

35:57

buy a Tesla. Who's that dude that's

36:00

just like? I see him all the

36:02

time, he's just like healthy, I don't

36:04

even know what he does. What, what,

36:06

healthy guys on the internet? He just

36:08

like claims to be, I'm the healthiest

36:10

guy ever. Oh, yeah, what was that guy?

36:12

We were gonna have him on the

36:14

show. Brandon Johnson, what was his

36:16

name, Johnson, or whatever? Yeah, he's

36:18

the healthiest, he's trying, he's

36:21

trying, he's trying, his, his, his,

36:23

Brian Johnson, his metabolic age

36:25

is four years younger than

36:27

his actual, literal, literal age.

36:29

It's pretty good. He's going to get hit

36:31

by a car. I was just going to

36:34

say, wouldn't there be a little bit of

36:36

comedic irony if he died in a train

36:38

accident? A train hole is a thing that

36:40

rarely happens. That's even better. You think about

36:42

it with the planes now? Everything? Do you

36:44

worry about it? I had bad turbulence on

36:46

the way here. And I think about it.

36:48

Did you see the Charles de Gaul film?

36:50

The thing that just went up yesterday from

36:52

from Paris? They had to like... It was so

36:54

bad, you don't do French stuff? No,

36:57

no, no. I tend to stick to

36:59

Nashville and that's really about it. God

37:01

bless. No, I get freaked out now.

37:04

I just flew in from Chicago

37:06

yesterday. I get freaked out only

37:08

because I feel like it was never

37:10

this much, but I think we googled

37:13

it and it's not true. I

37:15

think this was as frequent as

37:17

it's always been. We're seeing it

37:19

more. Oh, okay. Which is a little bit

37:21

conspiratorial that I don't like, which makes

37:23

me think, man, this is another time

37:25

the media is making me feel something

37:27

that actually has always been consistent. And how

37:29

often are they doing? You know when they're like,

37:31

dude. Robberies are up and then

37:34

everyone goes around going dude robberies are

37:36

up but it's like then you check

37:38

the stats are like no it's been

37:40

this way for 25 years and then

37:43

you see all these companies are owned

37:45

by home home security right and ADT

37:47

is ADT puts out reports every week

37:49

the robberies are higher ring doorbell yeah

37:52

this is fact well what so so

37:54

so um Dylan I think Tim was

37:56

just on going to Columbus and they

37:58

had to come back but this is

38:00

what's crazy not because something

38:02

on the plane because not

38:04

because of the plane someone on

38:07

the plane had like a freak

38:09

out or whatever and so they

38:11

turn around and came back a

38:13

freak out yeah probably threats or

38:16

someone's high or someone's on drugs

38:18

or something happened day and just

38:20

get scared something happened like you

38:22

do the amount of people overseas

38:24

I've tried to pull the door

38:26

open mid-flight this is

38:29

happening a man Eating cheese,

38:31

try to open the door

38:33

with lights and we have

38:35

to land in the Tim

38:37

River. I think it's happening

38:39

as much as it

38:42

always has happened. We're

38:44

hearing it more because

38:46

the media is finding

38:49

ways to hype up. What's going

38:51

on? Or what are we not looking

38:53

at while we're looking at this? It's

38:55

a bit of a smoke screen. What

38:57

are they doing? Yeah, what could this

38:59

be? What is next? Like the asteroid

39:02

is coming and it's getting to us

39:04

faster. And the percentage keeps increasing the

39:06

likelihood, right? Of that, yeah, I know.

39:08

What are they called? The doomsday clock,

39:10

like we're almost to midnight? Yeah, five

39:13

seconds. But no, isn't there an actual

39:15

asteroid heading towards the earth? There is

39:17

like a three percent chance it. a

39:19

billionth of a degree or whatever it'll

39:21

kill us and you know what

39:23

it's not an extinction level no no

39:26

but it'll destroy a town or two

39:28

so not but where does it hit yeah

39:30

okay so where can we push it where

39:32

can we push it too smart chance of

39:34

impact in 2032 yeah oh I'll be gone

39:37

I'll be gone look where would you okay

39:39

how about this how about this where would

39:41

you divert it to what would you

39:43

divert it to what content would

39:45

you divert it to I mean, it's got to

39:47

be Eastern Hemisphere. Yeah, they've had it too good

39:49

for too long. They certainly have. Yeah, yeah. I'm

39:51

not going to do that to South America. I'm

39:53

not going to do that to North America. Leave

39:55

these people, well, North America, we can't, we're number

39:57

one. I mean, go, something's got to keep the

39:59

world. going. I think you throw a

40:02

dart at the eastern hemisphere and I

40:04

think I think it's you know I

40:06

appreciate your sacrifice. Appreciate you.

40:08

Thank you. Thank you. By

40:10

the way the landmass size of

40:12

Russia for people that don't

40:14

really know. is so big

40:16

that you're like, let's do

40:19

Siberia, there's nothing up there.

40:21

There's nothing up there. Yeah,

40:23

yeah, yeah. Like give me,

40:25

give me the, give me

40:27

this, give me this, like

40:29

the actual mileage, like square

40:31

footage of Russia. I looked at it

40:33

one time on a map on one

40:35

of those realistic maps where they show

40:37

you the true depth of how big.

40:40

It's the amount of land, what is

40:42

it? That's insane. And Americans get flack

40:44

all the time for not knowing a

40:46

lot about geography, but I was blown

40:48

away where I looked up where Moscow

40:50

is. It's so far to the left?

40:52

It's Europe. It is Europe. You think

40:54

it's going to be top right in

40:57

the thick of it in Russia? It's

40:59

just nothing out there. You ever look

41:01

at the nuke map? nukemap.com no

41:03

but bring it up you can

41:05

pick any nuclear device and then

41:07

drop it on any city in

41:09

on Google Maps and it'll show

41:11

you how about the casualty count

41:14

it'll show you where the radiation

41:16

will go I've spent hours on

41:18

there like what if a new

41:20

gets dropped what if like a

41:22

little boy gets dropped on the Tennessee

41:24

Titan Stadium. Like, am I gonna be okay?

41:27

Is that how they're taking care of it?

41:29

They're gonna rip that thing down and build

41:31

something. We gotta bulldoze it some way. You

41:33

should? Yeah, because they're building the new one.

41:36

You do know, I have said that it's

41:38

Nissan, right? Isn't it still Nissan Stadium? Yeah.

41:40

From the bottom of my heart, love Nashville.

41:42

We have so many family and friends out

41:45

there. One of the greatest... pathetic football

41:47

stadium I've ever seen in my life. Well,

41:49

we're about to build the best stadium in

41:51

the country. It's gonna make Sophie look like

41:53

a high school stadium. Good luck. Good luck.

41:55

Good luck. I mean, Sophie is phenomenal. Yeah. You

41:58

can do it. You can go to town. Yeah. That's

42:00

funded by billionaire tech lunatics.

42:02

Do we have dip and dots? The one thing

42:05

you have? Space ice cream? We gotta get

42:07

it! But they're building it to be a

42:09

state of the arts. I know I am

42:11

excited for you guys because every time I

42:13

cross that beautiful river on that bridge and

42:15

those games are fun to go to because

42:17

it is just like college football where you

42:19

kind of. You collectively walk together over to

42:22

the stadium? Yeah, exactly. I love that. Exactly.

42:24

But the stadium itself is real sad. What

42:26

do you want? Like lazy boys in the

42:28

stands? No, I want a real stadium. That

42:30

looks like a high school stadium. What about

42:32

it? Nissan is pathetic. What do you want

42:35

to say? And every player who plays

42:37

there has said it's the saddest place

42:39

to play. That's because we haven't been

42:41

winning. If we went a Super Bowl,

42:43

all of a sudden that stadium is

42:45

pretty nice. You got close? We did

42:47

get close. You got real close. Yeah,

42:49

we got, I mean, we got a

42:51

yard away from it. Are you looking

42:53

at the nuke map right now? Yeah,

42:55

give me the nuke map right now.

42:57

It's pretty fun, right? Yeah, give me

42:59

the nuke map, it's pretty fun, right?

43:01

I dropped his bizarre bomb, which is

43:03

the biggest bizarre bomb, which is the

43:05

biggest nuke god right. This is what

43:07

I came in here. In the middle

43:09

of like the loop, the fireball would

43:11

go all the way up to Lakeview.

43:13

Oh my god. All the way down

43:15

to Washington Park, out past West

43:17

Garfield Park, and pretty far out

43:19

into the Lake Michigan. And the

43:22

radiation itself goes into Michigan City,

43:24

up past like, I mean, they will

43:26

not be able to tell the difference

43:28

in Michigan City. Like the fireballs up

43:30

past, or I mean, the radiation goes

43:33

all the way to Gray's Lake. Wow.

43:35

And what's the casualty count? Says

43:38

on the bottom right four thousand

43:40

hot dogs 28 hundred the tailing

43:42

beef sandwich over a million right

43:44

God way over a million Chicago

43:47

Metro I don't know Chicago. They're

43:49

pretty resilient. Yeah, some of those guys

43:51

would take the blast and keep moving Yeah,

43:53

this here from my face fell off and

43:56

I can't feel my right side of my

43:58

arm, but for the most part it's

44:00

not a fact I bowl left-handed

44:02

anyway it doesn't really matter one

44:04

point two million how about that

44:06

that's a day Chicago's first place

44:08

I heard people honk their horn

44:11

I remember we will honk at you

44:13

I'm from Alabama I lived in Tennessee

44:15

and then I was in college we

44:17

took the train through Gary in Michigan

44:19

City just just to see the scenery

44:21

and we got to Chicago and I

44:23

remember we got off the train station

44:26

and I just heard horns honking yeah

44:28

I was like this is Wild worms

44:30

my heart I've never I'd never heard

44:32

that I honk here. Where are you

44:34

all going so much? Where are you

44:36

going to where I need to go?

44:39

But why the urgency get out of

44:41

the way? Just you know what it

44:43

is a honk is a? It's like

44:45

a throat clear exactly it's a

44:47

dad going hey hey That's what a dad,

44:49

it's when a dad corrects you and goes, uh, uh, uh,

44:51

uh, uh, uh, uh, that's what a hon. It doesn't come

44:53

across that way, though. Comes across with a real anger, man.

44:56

Yeah, yeah. But it is a dad going, uh-uh, hey, mm-mm,

44:58

that's what a hon, or a hon is going, eh, come

45:00

on, hey, hey, come on, hey, hey, hey, hey, it's really

45:02

just a, it's just politely, it's just politely, it's just politely,

45:04

it's just politely, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's,

45:07

it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's,

45:09

it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's

45:11

But you're right, there is a tonal depth to the horn

45:13

that changes. If it's, yeah! That's rude, that is. But if

45:15

it's, come on, come on, come on, let's go. I'm a

45:18

big pop-up guy, I beep-beep, but I never, I never

45:20

be. Like if somebody's not going at a light or

45:22

something, you just go, pop-up-up, two taps, just, hey there,

45:24

hey there, hey there, hey there, hey there, buddy. That's

45:26

really, buddy. That's really what it, that's really

45:28

what it, that's really what it, that's really

45:30

what it, that's really what it, that's really

45:32

what it, that's what it, that's really what

45:34

it, that's really what it, that's, that's, what

45:36

it, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's,

45:38

that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, what, what, It

45:40

doesn't feel like a honk city. I think

45:42

I've probably honked once in 18 months. You

45:44

lease a car in Nashville, they're like, listen,

45:46

y'all get three honks a year in

45:49

this. Because doesn't a honk use, isn't

45:51

it gas or something in there that

45:53

does the honk? No. Am I insane?

45:55

There's no chance a hunk, it's a

45:58

lecture. It's like, I think it's... like

46:00

a whoopie cushion type. I swear to God.

46:02

I think that's how it works.

46:04

I think if you honed too

46:06

much, you have to put more

46:08

gas in it. Replenish the hunk?

46:10

The horns are electrical not. They're

46:12

electrical. I'm not talking about LA

46:15

cars. I'm talking about real American

46:17

vehicles. It says if your horn

46:19

stuff is your battery ran out

46:21

of charge. Ford. Our horns will

46:23

last longer than Chevy. We put

46:25

enough gas in our Ford horns.

46:27

to honk for years. I don't think,

46:29

not helium, but I thought there's some

46:31

type of gas. Brother, you are a

46:33

Notre Dame graduate. Well, I didn't major

46:36

in automotive studies. Well, you showed up.

46:38

It would have helped if they offered

46:40

it. The idea, but I will say.

46:42

But doesn't it feel like you're kind

46:44

of pushing, something like that? That's

46:47

where, that pushiness is because there's

46:49

an airbag behind there. You're

46:51

pushing an airbag. And that doesn't

46:54

contribute to the honk at all.

46:56

The air in the air in

46:58

the bag. It does say some

47:00

older vehicles or trucks have may

47:02

have air pressure horns. How about

47:04

that? Older trucks may have. Yeah,

47:06

the car's real American. What even

47:09

may have like we can't look

47:11

and see. What is it? F-350.

47:13

250 didn't have it. 350 and

47:15

above they had it. That's something I

47:17

could like here. You know, so I

47:19

have my connection to the South runs

47:22

deep. My dad and my sister both

47:24

went to the University of Tennessee. Oh,

47:26

okay. Go balls. So I have like

47:28

a very rich love for the South

47:30

in a way that a lot of

47:32

Yankees. So you spent your whole life

47:34

avoiding it. I love them, dude. I

47:36

go to a lot of the Yankees,

47:38

as my family would say. You hop

47:40

down there to take our money and

47:42

then you come back to LA. Correct.

47:44

Live the high life out here. Like

47:46

a fancy boy. That's crazy, too. At

47:48

least I pay taxes, okay? Oh yeah.

47:50

Tennessee non-state income tax pay and people.

47:53

How do they subsidize that income tax?

47:55

You tariff the other states? You do.

47:57

Everybody around you? Property taxes real high.

47:59

Not like that. here, not like in some of

48:01

the expensive state. Well, we didn't have no state

48:03

income tax in Tennessee. But I mean, how do

48:05

you? But what they always say is they go,

48:07

yeah, but where they get you is the property

48:10

tax. No chances that bad. They go. It's a

48:12

give and take between sales tax and property tax.

48:14

How does Tennessee, the state of Tennessee, subsidize income

48:16

tax? And I think our sin tax is real

48:19

high, too. Which I don't know if they call

48:21

that. It's called the syntax. What is

48:23

that? Alcohol, tobacco. Oh, right. Well, do

48:25

you sell through government stores? Like, is

48:28

it ABC stores that has to sell

48:30

alcohol? No, you can get at the

48:32

grocery store. You can. Alabama's ABC store.

48:34

That's the same thing in North Carolina.

48:37

And you learned about that, because the

48:39

DC sniper. Sorry to bring everything back

48:41

to the serial killers. The Montgomery,

48:44

Alabama, we took credit for capturing

48:46

the DC sniper. Did you actually

48:48

capture the DC sniper? they one

48:50

of them was caught on camera

48:52

at an abc store in Montgomery

48:54

Alabama no way that's how they got

48:56

them how pathetic like how pathetic

48:58

it gets sniped at a government

49:01

issued liquor store like dude in

49:03

Montgomery that's how they got you

49:05

but i remember the headline remember

49:07

uh... I can still see it. We had

49:09

a guy in the corner that

49:12

would hold the Montgomery advertiser. And

49:14

the headline was like Montgomery Ketch's

49:16

DC snipers. So we were like,

49:18

that's pretty huge. We, you know,

49:21

we did our part. I can

49:23

see that framed in many people's

49:25

homes in Montgomery. For sure. That's

49:27

in the walk, it says here,

49:29

Tennessee derives 58. We, you know,

49:32

we did our part. I can

49:34

see that framed in many people's

49:36

homes in Montgomery. Texas are unfortunately

49:38

not. Can you find something that's not editorialized?

49:40

Give us an opinion, dude. Tennessee's shameful tax

49:43

policy. You're like, come on, I don't know.

49:45

Yeah, I guess sales tax is high. They

49:47

clipped you. 10% on everything. But I do

49:49

love, I do love Tennessee. I've always had

49:51

a big crush on Tennessee. But I only

49:54

knew Knoxville for years when I was a

49:56

kid. We never went to Nashville. I wish

49:58

is one of those towns. I wish there

50:00

was a comedy club. There's good comedy there. They

50:02

do like a great don't tell show out there.

50:05

There's a couple really nice theaters in Knoxville. But

50:07

here's the thing in the South that I think

50:09

people don't get is you can't have a comedy

50:11

club there because you just you can't do shows

50:13

on Saturdays. Well, football. College of college football. Yeah,

50:15

you can't interrupt football. But this makes a lot

50:18

of sense actually because all of the great clubs

50:20

are in places that probably don't have good college

50:22

football. No, that's not I guess

50:24

that's not true. I mean one of

50:26

the best clubs in the country is

50:28

Madison comedy on state and that Madison's

50:30

a big football. I just don't I mean

50:32

look I haven't spent a ton of time

50:35

in Wisconsin, but I have a hard time

50:37

believing it's the same kind of

50:39

fervor But I mean, Wisconsin for

50:41

Midwest football, Wisconsin and Michigan are

50:43

big football. That's an Arbor is

50:45

Have you been to Ann Arbor

50:47

before? Yeah, I went to a

50:49

game when I was there. That's

50:51

phenomenal. We just went to one.

50:54

Dude, the whole city is... It's

50:56

incredible. Might have been the worst

50:58

fans I've ever interacted. Oh, why? Why? On

51:00

any level. Just the aggression is

51:02

unmatched by any other fan base

51:04

interact. People would just walk up

51:06

to your face and yell at

51:08

you. But you were wearing Notre

51:10

Dame stuff. Not today in Michigan this

51:13

makes sense. Yeah, but we were playing there.

51:15

It's not like we were invited But if

51:17

it was another school that doesn't have so

51:19

much vitriol hate for each other like dude

51:21

This is like Michigan Ohio State same thing.

51:23

They are going to eat each other alive

51:25

I know but to walk up to a

51:28

stranger and yell in there is crate and

51:30

it happened Oh, it depends on what he

51:32

yelled. Good luck! It was definitely

51:34

not that. No, it was. I

51:37

mean, I don't have any actual

51:39

like hatred towards Michigan, but I

51:41

was so struck by like, I'm

51:43

used to, you know, BYU coming

51:46

to campus and they're the nicest

51:48

people ever. Yeah. They're like, hey,

51:50

you want to hang out our

51:52

tailgate? Got some caffeine free diet

51:55

coax. And then you go to

51:57

Michigan and these dudes are coming

51:59

out. after a hard day's labor. They

52:01

call them Walmart Wolverines. Walmart Wolverines. Yeah, because

52:03

that's where they buy their gear. That's right.

52:05

And that's where they work. And these are

52:08

the greatest people in the world. God bless

52:10

Walmart and the Wolverines. God bless, God bless

52:12

America. I never had any of this rivalry.

52:14

Like I said, I went to Arizona State.

52:16

I never felt, you know, we had this thing against

52:18

Arizona. But that was like fun, because we both sucked

52:21

all the all the time. You know. I actually hate

52:23

the most, I actually hate the most is Navy. You

52:25

know, and count them as a, what

52:27

are they, what are they, they're not

52:29

competition? We've been playing them forever. I

52:31

know, it's not, it's not even, it's

52:34

kind of whack, by the way. I

52:36

know, but, but, but what annoys me

52:38

the most is every time we play

52:40

them, the, the whole narrative is like,

52:42

wow, the respect between these two institutions

52:45

is timeless. And you're like, do I

52:47

respect, I respect the Navy, like 40

52:49

years in a row and then, and

52:51

then, and then they beat us on

52:54

the worst year. And they've had good

52:56

teams every now and then. Goodish. Yeah,

52:58

and they'll run the wing tee, which

53:00

is like a nightmare to play against.

53:03

But I just get annoyed at how

53:05

it's talked about. They go, man, you got

53:07

to respect these. I mean, the

53:09

hard work, the dedication, these guys.

53:12

And you're like, yeah. I agree with all

53:14

of it. Sure. I'm tired of hearing

53:16

about it. Our kids work hard

53:18

too. That is right. Go Irish. Go

53:20

Irish. Give me the lifelong record

53:22

of Notre Dame versus Navy. I

53:24

guarantee you it's 98% wins for

53:26

Notre Dame. There's no chance it's

53:28

more than 2% of overall. I'm guessing

53:30

91, 92%. Wow. Yeah, because they come, I'm

53:33

telling you, they catch you on and off,

53:35

they catch you when you're down? They

53:37

catch us when they're down, when they're

53:39

down, where we're injury prone, and then

53:41

they chop block and they do all

53:43

that. And then they add to a

53:46

couple injuries? They layer it. I think

53:48

for me, the rivalry thing for me,

53:50

the rivalry thing was always fun, the

53:52

rivalry, was always fun to watch, We'd

53:54

go down and watch SEC football and

53:56

it was great. I had, because I

53:58

kind of had no. Skin in the

54:00

game. I just got to have enjoy these

54:03

like great football game and watch my dad

54:05

Just swallow the pill of Alabama beating

54:07

them all the time. There's always so hard

54:09

for my dad. Well, I mean, it's Alabama.

54:11

You know, I mean like when you

54:13

lose Alabama Who cares? I always felt

54:16

like that was like, dad this is

54:18

one of the greatest football institutions of

54:20

all time. But there is a stretch.

54:22

My childhood, I grew up in the

54:24

90s, that Alabama was not good. No,

54:26

yeah, there was a small one, I

54:28

think, seven years in a row and

54:31

they got a pretty big attitude about

54:33

it and I don't forget that. Well,

54:35

and your mom didn't, that wasn't a

54:37

thing for your mom enough. No, she

54:39

knew not to talk about football now.

54:41

81 to 13 Now do the

54:44

math young man do 13

54:46

divided by 81 do it

54:48

on your phone 13 divided

54:50

by 81 yeah point 16

54:52

16 Jesus Christ did

54:54

this is what I'm working

54:57

with this is what I'm

54:59

working with this is what I

55:01

love the skims. They got those

56:10

stretch five-inch boxer briefs. They are

56:12

my favorite. They also have cotton.

56:15

But I like to stretch because

56:17

I'm an active boy. I'm always

56:20

out and about running around town.

56:22

I know you've heard of skims.

56:24

I'm sure you've seen it with

56:27

the Kardashian family. You've seen stores

56:29

and pictures and videos online. But

56:31

you've got to try skims for

56:34

men. A lot of people think

56:36

it's just for women. It's not.

56:38

It's for us too. All right.

56:40

I like the I like that

56:42

as five inch boxer briefs. I'm

56:44

not going to lie. Underrated underwear

56:46

is what I'd like to say

56:48

about skims. Trust me, when it

56:50

comes to underwear, I've tried almost

56:52

all of them. I really have.

56:54

57:25

baseball season is here. One of

57:27

my favorite times of year. Okay,

57:29

Chavez-Revene and watch the Doyers and whoever

57:33

else that they are going to blow

57:35

out of the water. These guys are

57:37

wrong, that's pretty impressive. By the way

58:39

did you not know that that if

58:42

you divide that you divide that to

58:44

get the percentage do you not know

58:46

that in math stuff? I guess I

58:48

didn't exactly know what you're but then

58:51

I was like I figured it out.

58:53

See the future I need to tell

58:55

you something dude the future is so

58:58

screwed. This is a 25 year old

59:00

man and this is who they are

59:02

now. Uh-huh. They don't know how to

59:05

do percentages and they don't know. They

59:07

don't know geography? They don't know what

59:09

we're wake forests is! We're done! It

59:12

sounds like a made up school. Waki

59:14

forest? I was with Zach Townsend, our

59:16

mutual friend, last weekend. And he told

59:19

me, and I hope he doesn't mind

59:21

me saying this, no do it. He

59:23

told me he took algebra one as

59:26

a senior in high school. What? And

59:28

I took algebra one in eighth grade.

59:30

Yeah, algebra is not a senior year.

59:33

So I was like, you took algebra

59:35

as a senior? And I go, do

59:37

you know how to do any? So

59:39

I wrote on a piece of paper,

59:42

I wrote like 2X plus 1 equals

59:44

5. And can you solve for X?

59:46

And he was like, could not do

59:49

it. And this is insane, dude. I

59:51

was doing the 12 or 13. He's

59:53

trying to do it right now. 2X

59:56

plus 1 equals 5. You saw for

59:58

X, you isolate X on one side.

1:00:00

But let's be real. Yeah. You've seen...

1:00:03

photos of young Zach Townsend. Yeah, I

1:00:05

get it. It just, you know what

1:00:07

I mean? Math wasn't around. Exes too.

1:00:10

How about that, man? That's good work,

1:00:12

dude. How about that, man? How about

1:00:14

that, man? And you know what he's

1:00:17

writing it on? UPS, we missed your

1:00:19

delivery stuff that you have to pick

1:00:21

up. That you have to go pick

1:00:23

up. Uh-huh. My mom was my math

1:00:26

teacher, actually. My mom taught me algebraable

1:00:28

one. So I had, there was one

1:00:30

year where all six of us would

1:00:33

leave the house and go to the

1:00:35

same place. Your dad was principal. Yeah.

1:00:37

Now this has got to be tough.

1:00:40

Dad principal, well, I'll say this, principal

1:00:42

in. Principal in. Principal in high school

1:00:44

versus like, what is it called in

1:00:47

middle school junior high? It's not principal,

1:00:49

it's like the. It was called the

1:00:51

principal. Was it? Yeah. Oh, I think

1:00:54

we had a different name. But whatever

1:00:56

it was. Principal

1:00:58

in high school didn't really matter as

1:01:00

much. I feel like principal middle school

1:01:02

I saw more of, it was more

1:01:04

around, and we called it junior high,

1:01:06

six, seven, eight was junior high. Did

1:01:08

you do junior high or you did

1:01:10

it all the way up to high

1:01:12

school? There was an elementary school, the

1:01:15

middle school, and a high school, but

1:01:17

they were all linked. It was under

1:01:19

one umbrella where my dad was the

1:01:21

president of that whole thing and the

1:01:23

principal of the high school. That, you

1:01:25

know what, we had, yeah, we had

1:01:27

such separation because I think that was

1:01:29

a part of the, they wanted to

1:01:31

get the six, seven, eight together because

1:01:33

it made sense and they didn't want

1:01:35

them together with high school and I

1:01:37

always thought, yeah, nine, ten, eleven. 12

1:01:39

makes sense yeah but then when I

1:01:41

go in other parts of the country

1:01:44

people like no I went to school

1:01:46

with high school kids when I was

1:01:48

in like third grade yeah that's crazy

1:01:50

crazy it's not good for either of

1:01:52

them no that's creepy and weird why

1:01:54

they need to see each other these

1:01:56

people don't need to be near each

1:01:58

other in buildings and the young kids

1:02:00

don't need to see older kids doing

1:02:02

wild shit no influencing them to do

1:02:04

something and you You want the high

1:02:06

school kids to feel like they're young

1:02:08

adults in some way and that doesn't

1:02:10

help when there's six year olds running

1:02:13

around. I want them to feel like

1:02:15

you have an actual high school. My

1:02:17

dad was really good about keeping it

1:02:19

separated. He used to always quote, there's

1:02:21

an episode of Seinfeld where George says

1:02:23

there's coffee shop George, there's relationship George,

1:02:25

and George divided against itself cannot stand,

1:02:27

and he would think about it like

1:02:29

that. There's like me here at home.

1:02:31

and then there's me at the school

1:02:33

and I'll do my best to keep

1:02:35

them. Did you ever have an interaction

1:02:37

with them? You never got in trouble?

1:02:39

Yeah, you had to go. Did you

1:02:42

get in trouble? You seem like you

1:02:44

were probably a pretty good kid. Look,

1:02:46

I was in some groups that got

1:02:48

in trouble. I was never a trouble.

1:02:50

I was always the guy that was

1:02:52

like, guys, come on. guys the guys

1:02:54

1:03:21

that guy everyone has that guy everyone

1:03:23

has that guy everyone has that guy

1:03:25

a little too far. You need a

1:03:27

little too far guy. Yeah, rain and

1:03:29

end guy. Somebody to reel it back

1:03:31

in. We had a little too far

1:03:33

guy, my buddy, Tommy, Tom was the

1:03:35

man, always a little too far. A

1:03:37

little too far where something broke. He's

1:03:40

like, it broke a window. You're like,

1:03:42

uh-oh, yeah. Didn't need to do that.

1:03:44

You can't actually vandalize. Yeah, you don't

1:03:46

want to do something bad at the

1:03:48

house. Did you guys ever do so

1:03:50

you teepee? Did you teepee? Did you

1:03:52

egg? Did you egg? Did you egg?

1:03:54

Did you egg? Did you egg? Did

1:03:56

you egg? Did you egg? Did you

1:03:58

egg? House would you have to clean

1:04:00

your prank every year? Yeah, we got

1:04:02

our our minivan got paintballed one year

1:04:04

That dense a car that will dent

1:04:06

a car. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was

1:04:09

structural damage to our 1991 Toyota Previa

1:04:11

with one sliding door. That's shut up

1:04:13

Yeah, yeah, yeah, we got egged T.P.

1:04:15

Somebody took a dump in our mailbox

1:04:17

one year. Clever. Yeah, it's pretty. I

1:04:19

like I still think about logistically how

1:04:21

they did it. Well, they had to

1:04:23

put it in with their own hands.

1:04:25

Oh, I always, wow. I always assumed

1:04:27

they did it directly into the mailbox,

1:04:29

but I guess you could even bag

1:04:31

it and bring it from home, I

1:04:33

guess. Yeah, I mean, I think it's

1:04:35

more creative to do it live. We'll

1:04:38

do it live. We'll do it live.

1:04:40

I was imagining the guy doing a

1:04:42

handstand, leaned up against the mailbox, but

1:04:44

my mom, my mom would clean it

1:04:46

up every year, because here's what would

1:04:48

happen, is these kids, they vandalize our

1:04:50

house, and it was never like, like,

1:04:52

like, like, like, like, My dad would

1:04:54

get out there and try to stop

1:04:56

it or anything. It was like, just

1:04:58

let him, whatever. But they would come

1:05:00

back in the morning when the sun

1:05:02

was up to see it. So between

1:05:04

when they did it in the morning,

1:05:07

my mom would go out there and

1:05:09

clean it up to not give them

1:05:11

the satisfaction of seeing it. And then

1:05:13

my mom would get a cup of

1:05:15

coffee and sit by the front, front

1:05:17

window and watch this parade of pickup

1:05:19

trucks come by to. This is your

1:05:21

mom putting the bat down after hitting

1:05:23

the home run. That's what it is.

1:05:25

She didn't bat flip. Puts it down

1:05:27

politely and jogs around the basis. That's

1:05:29

what it is, man. And nods, tips

1:05:31

the hat. That's right. Hello, thank you,

1:05:33

thank you. Have a good day, boys.

1:05:36

Have a good day, boys. Your mom's

1:05:38

every coffee. Have a good day, boss.

1:05:40

Have a good day, boys. So we

1:05:42

did it with plastic forks. Forks, you

1:05:44

could do it. Yeah, you got anything.

1:05:46

And they'd break. Yeah, what a nightmare.

1:05:48

And I had the mow the lawn.

1:05:50

So that was, you'd have to get

1:05:52

down and pick them all out. Well,

1:05:54

they did this at your house. People

1:05:56

did it. Well, everyone got it. You

1:05:58

know, like people were doing it to

1:06:00

high profile targets, not just like a

1:06:02

random guy. If you played on sports

1:06:05

team, if you played on basketball, they

1:06:07

would hit you. you know like from

1:06:09

rival schools oh yeah oh my god

1:06:11

yeah also internally like if seniors would

1:06:13

go out and they'd hit the freshmen

1:06:15

they hit the or the JV kids

1:06:17

would get hit so you were you

1:06:19

good enough that kids from other school

1:06:21

you were a target no I don't

1:06:23

know I don't know I wasn't no

1:06:25

I wasn't no I think I was

1:06:27

more of a target because people the

1:06:29

redhead thing they're like we got to

1:06:31

get that guy for something you know

1:06:34

what I mean like that's stupid ginger

1:06:36

we got to light a Because when

1:06:38

I moved, when we moved to the

1:06:40

suburbs from downtown, my first year of

1:06:42

schooling, guys that I met, they all

1:06:44

went to a different high school. So

1:06:46

I lost all the friends that I

1:06:48

made right away. My childhood best friend,

1:06:50

we went to different high schools, which

1:06:52

kind of stunk, and I would try

1:06:54

to go over there and I would

1:06:56

hang with them, but then I'd try

1:06:58

to make new friends at mine, but

1:07:00

it was tough because all these guys

1:07:03

I knew. They went to another high

1:07:05

school. Would you ever go over there

1:07:07

and eat lunch during their school day?

1:07:09

No, I'd be so sad though to

1:07:11

show up over my little bag lunch.

1:07:13

Hi guys. It's not going good over

1:07:15

there, oh Santino. No, but it stunk

1:07:17

because I was trying to do both

1:07:19

and I was trying to make new

1:07:21

friends a lot and then also keep

1:07:23

those old friends, but they're also growing

1:07:25

into new groups. That was the hardest

1:07:27

part was making new friends at a

1:07:29

new school with half the kids got

1:07:32

divided into some other spot Your school

1:07:34

probably wasn't big enough for that to

1:07:36

happen. So I moved to Nashville in

1:07:38

the middle of high school. Oh, you

1:07:40

did So between my sophomore and junior

1:07:42

year I moved to Nashville my high

1:07:44

school in Alabama about 250 kids the

1:07:46

whole school good God and the one

1:07:48

in Nashville about 650 so it was

1:07:50

like It felt huge to me at

1:07:52

the time now we did this thing

1:07:54

called family lunch once a week at

1:07:56

my high school in Tennessee where you

1:07:58

got this random group and that was

1:08:01

your family all year. And then once

1:08:03

a week you sat at a table

1:08:05

with your family and had a family

1:08:07

style lunch like bowls and you pass

1:08:09

it around. And the idea was to

1:08:11

prevent just exactly what you're talking about.

1:08:13

Yeah. You meet a lot of kids,

1:08:15

you wouldn't normally sit with? Oh yeah,

1:08:17

yeah, I remember. Give me the first

1:08:19

names. Cole, Cole, Tucker, Bree, Jeremy. Yeah,

1:08:21

I remember that. Did you all have

1:08:23

to assume a family role? Like were

1:08:25

you the pop-up? I sat at the

1:08:27

head. I led the prayer before the

1:08:30

meal. That's fascinating though. Well, I mean,

1:08:32

dude, my high school, when I was

1:08:34

there was 3600, something like that in

1:08:36

the whole school. Nine through... High School,

1:08:38

yeah, nine, ten, eleven, twelve. Thirty six

1:08:40

hundred? Yeah, and there are two sisters,

1:08:42

two sisters. College. I mean, dude, I

1:08:44

think right now they probably are over

1:08:46

four thousand, if you look at... La

1:08:48

Salle, Chicago. No, no, no, high school,

1:08:50

high school, high school, high school, high

1:08:52

school was Naperville. Naperville, north and Naperville,

1:08:54

central. I think there, yeah, and the

1:08:56

burbs are, dude, western, western, southern, two,

1:08:59

eight, eight, hundred. 20,000 now things are

1:09:01

going great. Chicago enrollments. A lot more

1:09:03

back in the old days. What's central?

1:09:05

Yeah, maybe that's higher. They're going to

1:09:07

better smaller schools. 28, well, they're probably

1:09:09

going to private schools, to be honest

1:09:11

with you. Oh, it's a public school?

1:09:13

It's, oh, it's a public school? It's,

1:09:15

oh, public school, right? Oh, public school?

1:09:17

Oh, public school? Oh, public school? Oh,

1:09:19

it's, oh, public school, public school? It's,

1:09:21

oh, oh, public, public, public, public, public,

1:09:23

public, public, public, right, public, right, right,

1:09:25

right, right, right, right, right, right, right,

1:09:28

right, right, right, right, right, right, right,

1:09:30

right, right, right, right, right, right, right,

1:09:32

right, right, right, right, right, right, public,

1:09:34

right, right, right, right, right, right, right,

1:09:36

right, right, right, right 6.50 was probably

1:09:38

in my class, let alone the high

1:09:40

school. You know, 17. So you would

1:09:42

just not know kids at your school?

1:09:44

Most, you didn't know most. You just

1:09:46

didn't know most kids. That was just

1:09:48

a normal thing. I knew everybody. Yeah,

1:09:50

I knew everybody. Yeah, I know. And

1:09:52

for me, well, you know, like, and

1:09:54

or I'd meet kids years later after

1:09:57

getting a little bit of like success

1:09:59

or people knowing me. was James Holtzauer

1:10:01

the Jeopardy champion. But never. heard of

1:10:03

the guy in my entire life. Was

1:10:05

it class below me? He wasn't on

1:10:07

the quiz bowl team or something at

1:10:09

school. You didn't know him? No, too.

1:10:11

He was a year or two below

1:10:13

me and never heard of the guy

1:10:15

in my entire life. But you know,

1:10:17

but I mean, yeah, that would happen.

1:10:19

You'd hear, you'd hear people that have

1:10:21

come through there like, oh yeah, they

1:10:23

were like a freshman when you were

1:10:26

a senior and now they're like an

1:10:28

Olympic athlete or something. Oh, are you

1:10:30

kidding me? Yeah. I'm so bad. Don't

1:10:32

know the celebrity jeopardy or anything? No,

1:10:34

I'm a little scared of being embarrassed

1:10:36

because I'm too so stupid. Yeah, yeah.

1:10:38

But the celebrity jeopardy, their, the questions

1:10:40

are so easy. Are they stuff like,

1:10:42

uh, is a horn filled with air?

1:10:44

Is it stuff like that? Any of

1:10:46

that kind of stuff? Too che, dude.

1:10:48

I had a buddy. This is so

1:10:50

funny. I was just talking about it.

1:10:52

I had a buddy. We had a,

1:10:55

at my high school, it was called

1:10:57

the hand in hand program, it was

1:10:59

kids with special needs, and there are

1:11:01

a couple classes, they would be integrated

1:11:03

with normal classes, so you'd have a

1:11:05

kid with special needs. You know what

1:11:07

I'm saying normal, but that's, that's offensive.

1:11:09

Well, yeah, just. Neurotypical, I don't know

1:11:11

the L.A. Terminal. I don't know the

1:11:13

L.A. terminology, I'm sorry. But we had

1:11:15

one class where the teacher, I guess

1:11:17

the teacher, you know, we take these

1:11:19

tests on these scantrons that were... I

1:11:21

hated scantrons. Graded automatic. Yeah, they'd... Yeah,

1:11:24

they'd... So, fail. Did a teacher, whether

1:11:26

it was laziness or whatever, but he

1:11:28

would give the kid from the hand-of-hand

1:11:30

program, he would give them... a different

1:11:32

test than the ones we're taking where

1:11:34

the questions are a lot easier. But

1:11:36

the answers would be the same so

1:11:38

that he could scan it with the

1:11:40

other. You wanted to get one both.

1:11:42

So I had I knew a guy

1:11:44

who kind of allegedly cheated off. The

1:11:46

other, because his test would be like,

1:11:48

the colors of the flag are red,

1:11:50

white, and blank. And I remember, I

1:11:53

was like, that might be like the

1:11:55

lowest thing I've ever heard. You could

1:11:57

do. You got to repent for that,

1:11:59

just a little bit. You could make

1:12:01

up for that. And we got a

1:12:03

chap. right there in the building. Stop

1:12:05

down. Well that's kind of what it

1:12:07

is. You do a little cheating off

1:12:09

of a hand in hand, you slide

1:12:11

right in. Father I have sinned. It's

1:12:13

been 10 minutes since my last confession.

1:12:15

We had the program, I did it,

1:12:17

what was it, my senior year I

1:12:19

think, I sacrificed my early dismissal. My

1:12:22

girlfriend at the time, the girl I

1:12:24

was Dayton was a junior so you're

1:12:26

younger than me. and I sacrificed my

1:12:28

early dismissal and I did a program

1:12:30

kind of like that where it was

1:12:32

like staying for a period after to

1:12:34

help help out kids, handicapped kids. It

1:12:36

was honestly the most fun I had

1:12:38

had in high school and I thought

1:12:40

at one point I said to my

1:12:42

mom maybe I'll do this, maybe I'll

1:12:44

do this, something like this for a

1:12:46

living because it was so... I don't

1:12:48

know man it was the most fun

1:12:51

I had ever had it was like

1:12:53

they were happy to see you every

1:12:55

other class I walked into nobody's happy

1:12:57

to see you. There go he's loading

1:12:59

up. Yeah we had to do I

1:13:01

think 80 hours of community service to

1:13:03

go to the next grades I worked

1:13:05

at a nursing home. Did you? In

1:13:07

high school yeah that's depressing. Yeah they're

1:13:09

on their way out. You know what

1:13:11

it was a nice nursing home? Oh

1:13:13

okay. I think it was a nursing

1:13:15

home for wealthy. Oh, rich old people.

1:13:17

Oh, okay. So it wasn't, I mean,

1:13:20

it wasn't great, it was still sad

1:13:22

and a lot of ways. Yeah, but

1:13:24

there was still well to do. There

1:13:26

was one woman who would every day

1:13:28

would pack up a suitcase and wait

1:13:30

by the door. Oh my. Because she

1:13:32

thought every day she thought her family

1:13:34

was picking her up. And it was

1:13:36

brutal, dude. And I'm like, you want

1:13:38

to play bingo? Now, dude, I've told,

1:13:40

this is, I told the story before,

1:13:42

but I, you know, I was a

1:13:44

growing boy back then. 1617. Still growing.

1:13:46

So it seems? I was growing in

1:13:49

different ways. Okay. Yeah, yeah. But I'll

1:13:51

be hungry working back there, right? So

1:13:53

it's like any job, any kitchen, you

1:13:55

eat. little bit off of the plate.

1:13:57

100%. So every now, you know, French

1:13:59

Friday, it was big. I just eat

1:14:01

the French fries off the plate. So

1:14:03

I get the plate back, I eat

1:14:05

some of the French fries and wash

1:14:07

the plate. And I remember a nurse

1:14:09

walked back and saw me eating the

1:14:11

French fries. She goes, a lot of

1:14:13

our resonance just sucked the salt off

1:14:15

the French fries. And then put it

1:14:18

back on the plate. And I was

1:14:20

like, I've probably eaten a thousand of

1:14:22

those french fries. Just seeing a whole

1:14:24

person soaking on a fry putting a

1:14:26

ton. Putting it back on, and then

1:14:28

I'm munching on them back in the

1:14:30

kitchen. Like I see the cutaway now

1:14:32

in my head of a flashback to

1:14:34

just like, there's been a more salt.

1:14:36

Okay, Dolores, we'll put more salt on

1:14:38

there for you. That's so funny. Good

1:14:40

memories there. Good great great memories. Did

1:14:42

you ever think you were going to

1:14:44

get left something? Like did you ever

1:14:47

buddy up to someone who maybe had

1:14:49

some money to leave you? You never

1:14:51

even thought about it. No, I never

1:14:53

even thought about it. I never thought

1:14:55

to manipulate people in need like that.

1:14:57

I talked to them. I remember talked

1:14:59

to them and they were like yeah,

1:15:01

after the war. They don't say the

1:15:03

war. Yeah, it's always the war. Their

1:15:05

life was before the war and after

1:15:07

the war and after the war. Which

1:15:09

that's 9-11 for me. Yeah, that is.

1:15:11

Four 9-11 after 9-11. I wonder what

1:15:13

the next thing will be. COVID is

1:15:16

a lot for this generation, right? COVID,

1:15:18

you're right. COVID's a clips 9-11. They

1:15:20

always say pre-covid, post-coVID. Particularly because his

1:15:22

generation was in the heart of college

1:15:24

during... Second half of my college. Oh,

1:15:26

isn't that crazy? Yeah. He lives alone.

1:15:28

He has his own apartment at 25

1:15:30

years old. So he's doing well enough

1:15:32

that he has money in his savings

1:15:34

and he's got his own apartment. So

1:15:36

he is. Mm-hmm. COVID did him well.

1:15:38

Okay. Let's say that. Okay. Yeah. I

1:15:40

told him many times I've done this

1:15:42

old man rant in that I was

1:15:45

like 20. I would live with three

1:15:47

men in one bathroom. I've never lived

1:15:49

alone. You only went from roommates to

1:15:51

wife. I went from roommates to, yeah,

1:15:53

in college and then roommates. Yeah, I've

1:15:55

never lived alone. So say, thank you,

1:15:57

thank you, I'm blessed. Thank you, I'm

1:15:59

blessed. Hashtag blessed. I mean truly though,

1:16:01

it is pretty. I had, you know,

1:16:03

I had roommates up until... You know,

1:16:05

I finally got my, like my feet

1:16:07

on the ground was doing stuff in

1:16:09

my 30s, but man, forever. I did

1:16:11

remember a time where I got into

1:16:14

a fight with my roommates and I

1:16:16

thought, do I have to do this

1:16:18

forever? Do I have to live with

1:16:20

some, another human? Were you a good

1:16:22

roommate or are you, I mean, were

1:16:24

you chipping it? Unfortunately, unfortunately, unfortunately. He'll

1:16:26

tell you too, I'm a neat freak.

1:16:28

So to my, it stinks, because I

1:16:30

did everything all the time. And would

1:16:32

you confrontational to your room that's when

1:16:34

they weren't? 100% it would bother me

1:16:36

so much. I could see that. Dude,

1:16:38

you can't leave this stuff out. That's

1:16:40

disgusting. You just can't let things go.

1:16:43

The food, the food stuff? You don't

1:16:45

like people being different from how you

1:16:47

live. That's right, you get in line

1:16:49

with me or get away. Once you're

1:16:51

done, you wash the plate and put

1:16:53

it away. I just put it in

1:16:55

the dishwasher, that's what the dishwasher is.

1:16:57

So you don't put it in the

1:16:59

sink. Do not let it sit, there's

1:17:01

no need. Let it pile up. No

1:17:03

need, that's silly. It doesn't even make

1:17:05

sense. It's right next to the dishwasher.

1:17:07

Do you mow the grass every day?

1:17:09

No. No. You wait until it's a

1:17:12

problem. Do you mow the grass every

1:17:14

day? No. No. No. You mow the

1:17:16

grass every day. No. The grass every

1:17:18

day. No. You mow the grass every

1:17:20

day. No. You mow the grass every

1:17:22

day. No. No. You mow the grass

1:17:24

every day. No. No. You mow the

1:17:26

grass every day. No. You wait. You

1:17:28

wait. You wait. You wait. You wait.

1:17:30

You wait. You wait. You wait. You

1:17:32

wait. You wait until it's a. You

1:17:34

wait. You wait. You wait. You wait

1:17:36

until it Camlon? Yeah, dude. Camlon's getting

1:17:38

sued right now, I think, to the

1:17:41

nth degree, right? Did they have all

1:17:43

a bunch of... Oh, no, no, that's

1:17:45

a... What's the other one? They just

1:17:47

got a huge lawsuit because they had

1:17:49

stuff in there. They had chemicals that

1:17:51

they found. Monsanto? No, no, no, no,

1:17:53

no. It's the company that makes, um...

1:17:55

The weed killer stuff. Roundup. Round up.

1:17:57

Round up got in trouble. By the

1:17:59

way, they still sell it. Yeah, it

1:18:01

works great. It does. It's amazing. And

1:18:03

it'll destroy those weeds. Round up is

1:18:05

a minute. They got sued pretty bad,

1:18:07

and then they said they had to

1:18:10

take it off the shelf. But this

1:18:12

is the same thing that if you've

1:18:14

ever seen the documentary, I've talked about

1:18:16

it. The devil we know. It's about

1:18:18

Teflon. Teflon is a... You had to

1:18:20

describe Teflon. It's a chemical that is

1:18:22

used in non-stick pans traditionally, that's what

1:18:24

we know Teflon is. Like bulletproof vests.

1:18:26

It's also in there, it's also in

1:18:28

your sweater, it's in your shoes. This

1:18:30

is Tef, those... And it's in my

1:18:32

brain and the water supply. Sadly it

1:18:34

is. It's like microplastics. Yeah, a little

1:18:36

bit more harmful. Okay, good. And it's

1:18:39

in everybody's blood and they dated it

1:18:41

all the way, they could date it,

1:18:43

they could date it, they could date

1:18:45

it, they could date it, they could

1:18:47

date it, they could date it, they

1:18:49

could, they could, they could, they could,

1:18:51

they could, they could, they could, they

1:18:53

could, they could, they could, they could,

1:18:55

they could, they could, they could, they

1:18:57

could, they could, they could, they could,

1:18:59

they could, After the war, we all

1:19:01

got Teflon, and everybody got Teflon in

1:19:03

their blood because it was used so

1:19:05

readily in so many products that, and

1:19:08

when I say everybody, globally, this is

1:19:10

not just America. So Teflon became such

1:19:12

a problem, this documentary talks about it,

1:19:14

3M said, we don't make that version

1:19:16

of the chemical anymore. So this is

1:19:18

not a brand, this is a... Teflon

1:19:20

is a chemical compound. I thought it

1:19:22

was like styrofoam. Yeah, right. Right. Right.

1:19:24

It's a brand. But it should be

1:19:26

a brand. Who makes Styrofoam? Styrofoam is

1:19:28

a brand. It is? Styrofoam is a

1:19:30

brand. And Teflon is technically a brand

1:19:32

name for the chemical. Look at that,

1:19:34

dude. Why don't you research this stuff?

1:19:37

Sorry about that. I apologize. That's my

1:19:39

fault. I ask a very reasonable follow-up

1:19:41

question. You look at me like I'm

1:19:43

in manufacturing. Yeah. Styrofoam. Styrofoam makes styrofoam.

1:19:45

But other companies are allowed to call

1:19:47

their styrofoam. But they don't call it

1:19:49

styrofoam. They call it foam packaging. Foam

1:19:51

packaging. Yeah. Maybe like tissues. Q-tips. Exactly.

1:19:53

It's like Kleenex. Xerox. Coke. I still

1:19:55

call all sodas Coke. Well, because they

1:19:57

are. Geographically. I call it pop. Pop.

1:19:59

Pop. Pop is great. Midwest for life,

1:20:01

baby. Do you call them. water fountain

1:20:03

a bubbleer too? No that's that's that's

1:20:06

southern that's not a southern it's not

1:20:08

us we don't say bubbleers that's east

1:20:10

coast I'm guessing Wisconsin area no no

1:20:12

I think bubbleers no no I'm thinking

1:20:14

Milwaukee they're calling it bubbleers yeah dude

1:20:16

once again Wisconsin and New England that's

1:20:18

what I said we're both right yeah

1:20:20

we're both right what a beautiful moment

1:20:22

they say Bob yeah bubbleers no in

1:20:24

Chicago what do we call water fountain

1:20:26

Hazardous drinking fountain. We don't do we

1:20:28

don't drink out of them though. Not

1:20:30

in Chicago Usually hit a hose dude.

1:20:32

That's for homeless to wash themselves. You

1:20:35

got to hit a hose my time

1:20:37

about a spigot a spig yeah, I'm

1:20:39

talking about a suck about a suck

1:20:41

on that spigit more Hose water I

1:20:43

drink a lot of hose water growing

1:20:45

up so there's probably a way to

1:20:47

live Teflon's all in me well, but

1:20:49

hose water probably was Probably

1:20:51

better for you than than fountain water

1:20:53

taste so good because fountain water I

1:20:56

was thought about this when we played

1:20:58

basketball at the park and you'd go

1:21:00

get a drink of fountain water Birds

1:21:02

poop all over it. You're the hose

1:21:05

at the house never is never there's

1:21:07

no poop on the hose Yeah, yeah,

1:21:09

yeah, the hose never got contaminated. Yeah,

1:21:11

and I'm not getting my mouth too

1:21:14

much on the outside of it. That's

1:21:16

what I'm just staying on the you're

1:21:18

staying on the inside inside I don't

1:21:20

know what it is We had, we

1:21:23

had, I remember in high school, there

1:21:25

was the high water fountain and the

1:21:27

low water fountain, you know what I

1:21:29

mean? And this was crazy. A kid

1:21:32

we went to high school with got,

1:21:34

um, oh my god. He had to

1:21:36

get like his hand in his foot

1:21:38

amputated because he got, what's the, what

1:21:41

is the bacterial meningitis? Oh yeah, yeah,

1:21:43

yeah. And they claimed it was from

1:21:45

the water fountain and then someone said.

1:21:47

Don't worry, it's the low ones. And

1:21:50

we used the high ones, and I

1:21:52

was like, oh my god. This took

1:21:54

it back to like civil rights, they

1:21:56

were like, it ain't our fountains. But

1:21:59

bacterial mening, or no, no, no, sorry,

1:22:01

viral meningitis. Whatever the one is. V.M.

1:22:03

Which one is it? While it's where

1:22:05

you could potentially get a fatal brain

1:22:08

infection, uh, meningitis from water, not from

1:22:10

drinking water from a fountain, but water

1:22:12

entering your nose. So you caught some

1:22:14

up the nose and got some mening.

1:22:17

So you caught some up the nose

1:22:19

and got some meningitis. So if you

1:22:21

would have drank properly, it would have

1:22:23

been fine. And I said, we all

1:22:26

said that to him. Yeah. You got

1:22:28

a learn how to drink. You lose

1:22:30

a hand, you lose a foot for

1:22:32

something. We would. Save some for the

1:22:35

fishes. This is before everybody talked about

1:22:37

hydration. Right. Hydration was never a thing.

1:22:39

This is when kids used to throw

1:22:41

up and pass out at football practice

1:22:44

and they were like, get up! Still

1:22:46

got color in it. You got work

1:22:48

to do, buddy. That's why they say

1:22:50

we look so much younger. Like if

1:22:53

you look at like a... a 30-year-old

1:22:55

from the 50s, how like people used

1:22:57

to look older. Yeah, they never drank

1:22:59

water. They drink water. They drink, I

1:23:02

mean, they drink this. This all day.

1:23:04

And three packs of cigarettes. And then

1:23:06

they, you know, went home and that

1:23:08

is what's funny when somebody goes, look

1:23:11

at all more mature. Everybody looked back

1:23:13

then like they were closer to dying.

1:23:15

They were going to die at 38.

1:23:17

Yeah. It is funny to see pictures

1:23:20

of my grandfather when he was young.

1:23:22

he did look at 16 there's like

1:23:24

a photo i remember my grandfather at

1:23:26

16 he looks 40 my age he

1:23:29

looks like a 40-year-old man well he

1:23:31

was 16 I think well life life

1:23:33

was tougher back then right it'll do

1:23:35

that to you George Washington led an

1:23:38

army at 16 that's insane I actually

1:23:40

have no idea if that's true but

1:23:42

by the way I get fact check

1:23:44

what how old was Washington when they

1:23:47

crossed the Potomac how old was he

1:23:49

let's take a let's take a guess

1:23:51

I honestly think he was 25 tops.

1:23:53

I say 35. Because I think he

1:23:56

was leading men into battle as a

1:23:58

teenager. I say he's in his mid-30s,

1:24:00

it's cross the Potomac. Seems insane. Hold

1:24:02

is born in 1732 and across the

1:24:05

Potomac in 76. Oh! He had say

1:24:07

he was 34. Wow. I was right

1:24:09

on, I said 35. How about these

1:24:11

my age? Imagine me leading. No, no.

1:24:14

76 minus 32. Oh yeah, 44. 44.

1:24:16

We're done. That was tough. That was

1:24:18

bad. No, no, that's right. 44. That

1:24:20

is, should be able to do that.

1:24:23

So he's closer to my age. Yeah.

1:24:25

Wow, imagine me leading people. It's okay.

1:24:27

I took Algebra 1 in middle school.

1:24:29

Don't, don't, don't, don't do that with

1:24:32

a hat. You show your face and

1:24:34

be proud. Don't do that, don't tip

1:24:36

it down. My mom's a math teacher.

1:24:38

But I think he did fight in

1:24:41

the French and Indian War too. I

1:24:43

think he was a commander. Okay, yeah,

1:24:45

yeah, yeah, but I think he was

1:24:47

a teenager when he was, he was,

1:24:50

looked that up, was Washington a teenager

1:24:52

as a teenager, as a, but, By

1:24:54

the way, the men I am leading

1:24:56

are 15 and 16 years old. Of

1:24:59

course. So imagine me with a group

1:25:01

of high school, sophomore boys, trying to

1:25:03

get them to do anything. And you

1:25:05

got a drummer boy who's like 10.

1:25:08

He was 21 when he joined the

1:25:10

Virginia militia. 21. So 16. Pretty close

1:25:12

to 60. A neighbor. Spitting distance, I

1:25:14

think. By the way, the little drummer

1:25:17

boy. What's an unnecessary casualty? Because you

1:25:19

know he got shot. You know they

1:25:21

killed the drummer boy almost always. You

1:25:23

first want to go. I'm guessing that

1:25:26

was like some kind of war crime.

1:25:28

100% to kill the drummer. You know

1:25:30

what happened on accident. Have you ever

1:25:32

seen how these guns were shot? They

1:25:35

hit things on accident. Yeah, there was

1:25:37

no aim. You aimed here, it shot

1:25:39

there. You just go, yeah, you aim

1:25:41

forward, you aim forward. You just go,

1:25:44

yeah, you aim forward. Right. But why

1:25:46

did it have to be a boy?

1:25:48

Little drummer girl? No, I mean the

1:25:50

little drummer girl. No, they get a

1:25:53

little drummer girl. Put a girl out

1:25:55

there. I want to play with dolls.

1:25:57

You're going to be drumming for the

1:25:59

soldiers, Sally. What am I told you?

1:26:02

You got picked. I think this Napoleonic

1:26:04

warfare, it's called. The way those wars

1:26:06

used to work is insane when you

1:26:08

think about it. Just line up and

1:26:11

walk towards each other? I like it.

1:26:13

Crazy. I also like it that they

1:26:15

told you it was almost like a

1:26:17

date it was like a war date

1:26:20

and people picnic out and watch right

1:26:22

they bring they go get some sandwiches

1:26:24

together we got the Battle of Gettysburgs

1:26:26

tomorrow it's pretty cool to not sneak

1:26:29

well like sneak war was considered kind

1:26:31

of a disgusting act of like sabotage

1:26:33

and that was but so it was

1:26:35

like what Mel Gibson did in the

1:26:38

Patriot I was gonna say what he

1:26:40

did on p c h was pretty

1:26:42

bad that was really bad when he

1:26:44

said to that cop it was a

1:26:47

little bit worse than the patriot But

1:26:49

he was being a patriot. God bless,

1:26:51

Mel. Hope you're well. There you go.

1:26:53

Help you're well, Mel. He's back by

1:26:56

the way. He's making movies. You know

1:26:58

that right? He's back in effect. Are

1:27:00

they doing well? The movies? I think

1:27:02

he I think he's like back in

1:27:05

full swing, is he not? People are

1:27:07

ready to. I mean even Passion of

1:27:09

Christ's is one of the highest gross,

1:27:11

highest gross movies. I remember, I saw,

1:27:14

that's not a surprise, I saw Passion

1:27:16

the Christ in the theater, yeah, came

1:27:18

out on Good Friday, I remember, and

1:27:20

I watched, great marketing, I went with,

1:27:23

perfect timing, I mean, yeah, you can't

1:27:25

put it on Christmas. And I went

1:27:27

with my grandpa and my siblings, and

1:27:29

I remember a guy in front of

1:27:32

us had nachos, at the Passion of

1:27:34

the Christ's, and I remember thinking. I

1:27:36

know there's a concession saying that's how

1:27:38

they make their money at these books,

1:27:41

like what a bizarre juxtaposition. Also, let's

1:27:43

be very real here. Everyone in the

1:27:45

room, at a movie theater, I am

1:27:47

almost never getting nachos. You're getting popcorn.

1:27:50

It's something to get for the Marvel

1:27:52

movie. Let alone. Let alone like you're

1:27:54

watching the Scourging at the Pillars. I

1:27:56

was just eating Nachos. I was like,

1:27:59

yeah, I feel like I'm going to

1:28:01

hell for eating popcorn at this movie.

1:28:03

Nachos is like, yeah, it's almost like

1:28:05

you shut up to root against Jesus.

1:28:08

you have not yet? God God, Jesus

1:28:10

did not like bunch of crunch. Put

1:28:12

that down. That guy left before the

1:28:14

resurrection. I saw everything I wanted to

1:28:17

see. I know what happens. I looked

1:28:19

at Mel Gibson. He is a government

1:28:21

position right now. What? Man, Trump is

1:28:23

going off. Yeah, he's the ambassador. Special

1:28:26

Ambassador to Hollywood. Oh, I thought Australia,

1:28:28

because he's Australia. So that's just alone

1:28:30

in John Voiv, but it's an incumbent

1:28:32

position that was created on January 20th,

1:28:35

2025. You're Ambassador to Hollywood? What's he

1:28:37

doing? Just kind of just checking in

1:28:39

every now and then? What do you

1:28:41

all do? What's the casting look like?

1:28:44

What they're trying to do and Gavin

1:28:46

knew with some of these guys. And

1:28:48

you're going on Lift. Newsom's podcast next

1:28:50

week. He's on this, I think. Isn't

1:28:53

he coming right after this? Yeah. Big

1:28:55

fan. He right now... You had to

1:28:57

push it back for me? For you.

1:28:59

Are you kidding? Aaron's running a little

1:29:02

late. Governor. Aren't you sit back? Aaron

1:29:04

Weber. Gavin Newsom? No, he's going to

1:29:06

come. He's at French laundry. I love

1:29:08

you. I appreciate Mount Rushmore. of nice

1:29:11

guys. Get out of time. I'm not

1:29:13

even kidding. Really? I've made, I've made,

1:29:15

yeah, I have my Mount Rushmore nice

1:29:17

guys. I'm up there. And it sounds

1:29:20

reductive of you as a comedian, it

1:29:22

is not. I don't, honestly, I couldn't

1:29:24

care less. The comedian thing is the

1:29:26

thing that I do, that I have

1:29:29

to do. That's just put the lights

1:29:31

on. The nice guy thing is what

1:29:33

I really want. I'll take it. Please

1:29:35

go watch Aaron Specials Specials Specials. But

1:29:38

it's specifically specifically well specifically on YouTube.

1:29:40

Yeah, but are you putting it up
