It's June 22nd, we are here live from HQ 3, welcome back. We are back in studio, back from Chicago. You just can't expect me to keep your secrets. It's just, I don't care. Back from Chicago. How we feeling? How we feeling guys? I mean, I've been just non stop moving. I'm in a bad place, basically and mentally. He says this, but I walked past him in the hallway earlier. He was on a zoom call with tell your right bush and his head was literally like his, he was throwing his head all the way back laughing. I mean, the back of his head was touching between his shoulder blades. Just gone. No, that's how he came in here and he was like, yeah, dude, I've had a tummy ache and shit like that. I was telling that we talked about my tummy ache on that too, so talk about it here as well. I don't, I don't really know what more to do. It just is so apparent that this is an imposition and that is his joy. No, no, no. That was great. We had to, I had to record. I came in early and I did that here and now we're doing this. Like Ron did his show with J will and I didn't crack a smile and I didn't crack a smile. You can watch back the tapes. I didn't crack a smile on that. You were fucking scream laughing. You're allowed to crack smiles. There was really nothing to even laugh about on that. It was a more of a serious conversation. Well, then why were you laughing so hard that I heard it through soundproof glass doors? I just kept on seeing you walking behind and looking in. I walked behind because I just kept on. I thought that the firmament of the building was shaking with how hard I was here because I was like, I don't, I feel like I don't walk in when you and J will are filming and just stand there. You're like across from the bathroom like a voyeurist. Go to use the downstairs bathroom running just because you're laughing so fucking hard, but he was complaining about he had a vicious tummy ache and I said, what else is new? This is like one that we've never experienced where it's like shitting and vomiting. Once you start vomiting, that's when you're like, this is no longer like funny. No. That's scary. Yeah, now this just sucks. That's scary. That's scary. Yeah. I don't know what to tell you. Nothing. Here's what I've learned. Okay. We spent two and a halfish days together in Chicago and you and I always spent more time together because probably that octopus that did it, honestly, well, well, you and I had to run to the, we weren't, we weren't part of the dozen. So, yeah, yeah, Ron was off doing, you know, dozen stuff and he was catered for him. What not? Correct. Districtly dozen food, dozen four catered to and catered to. Yeah. No, I was catered for it. Yeah. I had to get like the people who built the set to sneak me to sandwich house, you could grab me a meatball. Yeah. Francis was in disguise as a teamster. Yeah. And he was walking in with like grappling hooks around his waist and the hammer and his. I had voodoo tattoos on my arms. But we were, we were spending, we spent a lot of time together, you and I, Harry, and I came home from it and realized that I was just telling everyone how tired I was all the time. Yeah. Yeah. You told me about that. It was just like, is if I was just speaking your language, your attitude made me tired. Yeah. It's not even like, but the, like we talked about it a little bit like you're not even tired when you say it. And you had munchows and by proxy by proxy. I did, well, explain that. He has munchows and by proxy and you got it by proxy. I don't know what munchows is. So explain that. Munchows and by proxy is when you keep someone, usually like a child sick. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, so you just have munchows and I'm just saying munchows and by proxy, but munchows and by proxy would be as if I was keeping Harry tired. Right. Got it. But so, but he's keeping himself, so you don't have munchows and but you have munchows and yeah. Have you guys seen that movie where the girl I can't walk? And then she finds out it's because like her mom had been giving her like dog medicine for like 20 years. Are you talking about the show's sharp objects because it's in that no, but I've seen that that's this is a different. That's munchows and by proxy. Yeah. Yeah. That's a great show. It scared the shit out. A little dark. A little dark. It was the cutting stuff was. Yeah. That was a little too heavy. I'm not into that shit. But the rest of the show was great. The ending. The ending's unbelievable. Haunting. The teeth. Oh boy. Say less because I want I don't want to spoil don't want to spoil. So yeah, we don't know if it was munchbox and by proxy or what, but the point is that after hanging out with Harry for a couple of days, I just started feeling eight gear and less willing to do things and annoyed that people were reaching out to me. I just wanted I just and it took me. I had to step out of myself and realize this isn't me. This isn't who I am. I embrace life. I move towards the light. I need to get back to that. I need to re embrace the fact that I'm not constantly fatigued. Let's get in the gym. Let's eat clean. Let's be positive. Yeah. So you're feeling good now? Feeling great. 91 sleep score last night. Oh my god. More of that. Great outfit. I call this. This is a backstreet boys outfit, but because it's pride month, it's a backshots boys. Oh, that's what I'm going for. That's damn good. I could see you hitting like the Michael Jackson, the wind blowing on your top shirt at your bottom shirt stays tight and I'm so glad you brought Michael Jackson up because I have been watching the Michael Jackson documentary on Netflix. Oh yeah. Either of you two seen any of it. Yeah. I finished it. I think I brought. I think I talked about it a little bit. Two episodes in out of three, so I, I get that you get that you get that just I'm doing it. He was doing it. I only wanted to have everything. He was accused though. Yeah. Yeah. Right. Yeah. I mean, they go a little bit more into like both sides of it when you get to the third episode, like the, because it's more like the core case. Um, so that's kind of where you see like the more like opposing arguments of like maybe why he maybe didn't do it, I guess. You had a box of porn in his bedroom that he was showing the kid who was sleeping with him. Yeah. So I'm going to go with he did it as well. I'm not looking. I'm not on his side. I think he definitely did it. It sounded like you were like, no, I think you wait to hear them out. No, I think he definitely did it. But the third episode is where you get like the other side. I'm not going to watch that one. Yes. There's really no point in watching. I'm going to believe what I believe. Yeah. I don't want both sides. Well, the third episode is kind of crazy because that's when like the kids start testifying and they're all just saying he didn't do anything. They are recanting. They're like a McCulloch Cullkin. Why would a kid ever recant their original account of abuse? Yeah. I mean, like McCulloch Cullkin comes in and it's like that's when it's like the stars are out. Yeah. I know. But Michael Jackson didn't touch him because he knew he would be the star witness. Or he touched him and McCulloch Cullkin didn't want to admit it. And he's got much as in my proxy now. That's it. That more likely scenario. I doesn't make you guys look at Chris Tucker and usher as like kind of fucked up too. Why? Yeah. That after all this entire trial, they're like going up on stage, like having a dance off with Michael Jackson. Um, there's a lot of people that don't like, I don't know what it is, but like it's, it's not. It's almost similar. to like the Epstein files in a way of like there's a lot of people that are just such hard Michael Jackson fans that they're just like, I refuse to believe that. Like the big Jeff Epstein fans out there, well, you know, like I just love his financial advice. I'm being. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. He made me millions. He got me rich. So I can't say a bad word. He got to. He was always nice to me. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Jeffrey Epstein doesn't seem to have anything lasting from which people can benefit. I kind of meant more like, I don't know, like Trump. No, but I was going to say that I didn't want to say it. I was going to say that MJ's music, Michael Jackson's music, indoors, right? And people still get so much joy from it. Yeah. If Jeffrey Epstein's plane were still in service and paid for in perpetuity for a handful of people, maybe they would be like, I don't think he did anything. Right. If you could, if you could ride his, his plane at Universal Studios Orlando, I feel like people would be like, he actually wasn't that bad. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. You could go in a couple of loops or just like if his island was public access for seasons was there now. Bingo. Yeah. Or top to top vacation destination in the States. And honestly, it looks like kind of trash. It kind of, it does. It does. It doesn't. Like where is Cloudy? Where's the, and like, where's like the nice architecture? Like it was like folding chairs. Yeah. And that big blue like temple. That shit sucks. Yeah. It doesn't look comfortable. It doesn't look like there's enough seating or like enough pools or anything like that. It looks underbuilt. Why haven't they like destroyed it? Like why don't they like blow it up? Were you talking about Epstein Island? I'm talking about both. That end, that end, and, and, and Neverland. The end of Neverland seems CD. Yeah. Yeah. We're not going to see it everywhere. Yeah. Yeah. You don't want to go anywhere. The door and it's just like, maybe a billion movies and someone's like, we're going to have to go through this. Oh, yeah. How the fuck are you guys going to go through like at what like pace are you going to go through every recording that he has in his home? Yeah. AI. Dude, the eye it. The ordering of the child pornography videos where the magazine, the guys like, yeah, we just went through a phase. Oh, yeah. But there's a magazine like you're getting like a baseball glove. Like that's it was like there's a newspaper magazine for kids. Yeah. I've been through some some weird phases in my life. Never that though. Skateboarding. You know, I never once like, uh, you were never led to me circling illegal. Yeah. Yeah. Portography and imagine. Sharpie. Circle. Yeah. No, spin wire just came out with this crazy edit. It's skate and then they fuck. Yeah, you're begging for the release. And I mean, the fact that that assistant guy was also one of his victims. It's like, of course, there were victims that aren't the famous people too. Like they're saying he probably had a deep roster. 100%. I mean, he's the key was the king of the world. Did you guys ever, um, did you guys ever experience anything with your parents? No. Come again. No, I didn't. Thank you. I'm going elsewhere where you reveal like I'll give it just I'm just gonna tell you what happened to me. So I was thinking about the skateboarding again. And for my birthday, I asked for this seminal skateboarding movie called The End. It's Native American skateboarders. No. Seminal. Oh, it's Seminal. Oh, God. I got it. Um, with Tony Hawk is in it. I mean, it was like the movie to watch. And there's a scene in it where they kind of pretend that someone's head has been cut off. Yeah. And it like rolls around and they're, you know, tendons and like things like that falling off the end of it. And it was so gory and I was so revolted and I was watching the movie with my parents. Yeah. You took it back like you returned to them. We returned it after purchasing it. What do they say when they got to the, well, I was, I, I, I was just mortified by it. I was, I don't know. And I was probably nine. Did you ever watch a movie with your parents when you were too young where there was something in it that was like awkward for all of you? Yeah. But like, so yes and no. So I have a story. So I was like, I would think I was in fifth grade and I slept over at one of my buddy's houses. We all played like hockey together and it was like four of us and we would always like sleep over at one of his, one of our friend's houses. And we would watch like a movie and he, he had like older brothers and stuff. So it was kind of like a little bit more relaxed on like what movie like my parents, it would be like, they'd be more strict because I was like, my sister was a year older than me. Like we were young and we watched flight with Denzel. Oh my god. And then you saw that movie as a child is fifth grade and that movie came out way into my adult. Yeah, I know. It's funny. It's funny. I think I was working at Barst. Pre-confident. I would, I watched it on a flight when I had status. I think I saw it with KMarco. But so we watched that movie obviously while I was watching it, I was like, this is pretty insane. I've never seen anything like this. And then my mom picked me up the next morning and we were like driving home and she was like, what do you guys like? You guys watch a movie and I was like, yeah, we watched flight and she was like, really? She was like, we watched flight last night. And she was like, we turned it off like how graphic it is. And so yeah, she was. Well, that movie within the first like three minutes has like tons of titties and an upside down frame crash. Yeah. Full frontal in the first, 30 seconds of the moon and a plane that like crashes into the amish. And then a guy doing blow and drinking himself to death pretty much right right away into the movie. Yeah. Great flick. What a movie though. This doesn't seem like it was that bad, honestly, which is like that just the head was rolling around. Were you mortified by it or just your parents were? I think together we all felt disquieted. This is a little much for us. Yeah. Yeah. A little heavy. Yeah. Do your family have like a word that you use because my mom will always be like, that movie is a little too dark for me. Oh. Oh. And it'll be like anchor man. My mom. I'm trying to think we definitely had a movie. We had a word for when there was like, you know, nudity and stuff like. Yeah. It wasn't. I can't remember. Racie. Racie. Racie is exactly the word. That's exactly what it was. Because I was thinking was it risque? I knew it was an R. Yeah. But I know it was, it was racy for sure. Yeah. I mean, my parents were like, we still don't watch movies like that. Yeah. And I don't want to have love Island on in front of my now, now, that's basically porno. Yeah. I mean, me and my dad watched Shane's special live in Austin. We got like 30 seconds in and my mom was like, turn this off. I think my mother-in-law and her new husband tried to watch that too. And it was like, it was a little bit too much. It was a little bit much. I remember the line. It was when he goes me and my dad talk about eating pussy and fracking. And that was when my mom walked by and she was like, Jesus. Fracking. Did you see the picture he posted of his dad? Was that his dad? I thought that was Phil Mikkelson. But it was weird because I saw the photo and I was like, well, Phil's a lefty. He looks so fucking jacked. I know. That's a dense body with ropey muscles. His dad was playing golf and looked very much like a very jacked version of Phil Mikkelson. God's and fucking, but everything about him was in like the US Open or a master's gear. Damn. This happened. Francis, your story happened to me. My senior year of high school, I went over my friend's house and we were sitting down about to go out and his dad called him into another room because he had had a party the weekend before and his dad called him into a room to yell at him. And his mom was still in the room and I think that she'd been drinking. We broke back Mountain on Benos to me. I'd never seen it on the TV screen. And it literally like jumped to a gay sex scene as his dad called him out of the room and I was sitting there in silence with his like teetering mom. So you watched, you watched broke back Mountain just with his mom. I mean, that scene was on and then basically like that feels illegal. It felt illegal. It was massively uncomfortable. It feels weird. It's hell. Why did the mom not be like, Hey, let's just maybe what's there? Something else on. I think he was teetering. I don't know. I don't know. He's not being Irish too. Yeah. She was just being like, Oh, this is uncomfortable. It's presses forever. Yeah. Quite literally pause. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We could have been. We could have been. That's disgusting. That's very risky. I wish that either of your parents had been there. I know. They would have shut it down. I wish they'd shut it down. A little bit too much. It's not your fault. It is. It's not your fault, man. How do you guys look at Mountain at a young age? How do you guys feel about? I will. Oh, sorry. How do we feel about? No, no, no, no. I didn't mean to. No, I was done. Yeah. I was done as well. I was kind of peering at what? I was going to ask. How do you guys feel about friendship at this point in life? - Wow, great question. What are you at with it? - I think that I've been struggling a little bit with the concept of friendship and I'm struggling with this thing where I have friends with whom I've been friends for many, many years, many years. But those people don't, they're not necessarily continuing to be good friends. - Yeah, yeah, like well, just distance. - Either they're drifting apart, they're drifting into their families or, or they're just, they've become assholes, kind of. And when we hang out, it's not that fun anymore, whatever. And then I meet new people who I find amazing. I've met some amazing new friends in the last couple years of my life. And I wonder if I owe it to the people I've been friends with for many years to maintain that friendship in spite of, or can you kind of like one-in-one out of it? - Well, I think it's more so if they're putting in the effort to be friends, if they're not putting in any effort to reach out to you, like then no, I don't think you owe them anything. - Was that the end of it then? I don't think that's necessarily a 15-year friendship. - Yeah, I don't think you got to look at it as it like it's the end of it. But I think, you know, people grow apart. If you don't live in the same city as people, if you don't like, like if I didn't play video games with my friends from home, I would barely speak to them. But you wouldn't have had falling outs necessarily. It just would be on ice for a bit. - I've come in contact with this problem before. The club's at capacity, but nobody's dancing. (laughing) - That's really good. - And what you have to do is you gotta turn the lights on. (laughing) - But get some people out of there, bro. - Oh, I see, okay. - You need to turn the lights on and just be like, hey, like, we're closing up for the night and then get a new group or, you know, stock the club with the people who are gonna dance. - Yeah, you gotta tighten up that circle it sounds like. - Yeah, I think that, but I also think that you describe two different things. If people are becoming assholes, kick 'em out of the club. - Yeah, fuck 'em. - They're not involved, they're not invited to the club. I will say people recessing into their families. - That's fine. - That might not be their choice. And I know, 'cause I feel like I'm going through that somewhere. It's like, I'm not with a lot of my friends, not because I don't want to be, because a lot of that time isn't now otherwise occupied, but it would really be valuable for me that if I could hop back into that club, whenever I have a couple of dance moves, you know what I mean? As opposed to just being excluded from the club, just 'cause I couldn't dance at that one point. - I understand that the onus is on me to make plans with the people who have families because I have no family and I have the time and the energy. And I also feel like fundamentally, it's just easier for someone who's married with kids to be like, so-and-so asked me to come. - Yeah, yeah. - Instead of being like, I've organized a night away from you. - Yeah, yeah. - And it's children. - When is the last time you organized something for us? - Yeah. (laughing) - I want to go to Fort Drone. - Yeah. - Yeah. - That's actually my favorite restaurant. - Yeah. - Oh, really? - There. - Stop listening to my combo. (laughing) - But there's that, but then I come back to this thought, which is that someone once said that people who have friends, who have no friends for many years before and all their friends are new people, that's kind of a bad sign about that person. That they're conscious. - People do say that, I've heard that before. - And I know people for whom that's the case. - Yeah. - Boys or girls? - Both. - Does it happen more frequently with one of the genders? - Yeah, it does. (laughing) - Okay. (laughing) - Yeah, it does. (laughing) - I'm not saying it's all of whichever gender, but it does happen more frequently with one of them. - Yeah. - I actually don't know a lot of guys that are like that. - No, but I do know a couple. - Yeah. - Well, fresh set of friends. - Yeah, I just know when people proclaim you, they're best friend or something early on. That's weird. - That is weird. - That's not a good sign. - Yeah, I haven't had that happen in a long time. - I don't even really like the term best friend. - I get awkward hearing that. - Yeah, it's a lot of, it's kind of a little bit of a commitment. - Yeah, it's also non-consensual. - Yeah. - Right. - You're not my best friend until you have the other half of my moon bracelet. - Yeah. - You need to be asked. You can't just like assume that. - Yeah. - There's a lot of people who are their best friend. - Unrequited. - Yeah. That person might have another best friend. - Bingo. - And then you're going, well, is this just like a one way best friend? - Yeah. - 'Cause that's not, one way best friend is not a best friend. - No. - That's a friend. - Well, for you one of them's a little bit obsessive. - Right. - If one of them belongs in a watching. - Yeah. You know, if you've been telling people, you're my best friend. (laughing) - What the, you're not even in my top five. (laughing) - I'd like. - But. - Best friend seems extreme. - Yeah. - Maybe in certain groups, like I'll spend the most time with you, or like work. - Son of (beep) - Hey son of a boy ad listeners, we'll be right back.

All right, now back to the episode. Yeah, it is tough. I mean, I've always felt weird about it because I feel like I have my really good friends, but I also feel like that's definitely stopped me from making a lot of other good friends. 'Cause I'm like, well, I already got my boys, which will probably backfire at some point. I do think at some point in your life it feels a bit needy to be trying to create new friend groups. But I think that's toxic. I think that that's a toxic problem that I have. Like I don't fucking need any new friends. Like for me, it has happened naturally. Yeah, the golf course. Yeah, new places, new towns, new jobs, whatever. That all of a sudden I've just been spending a lot more time with people I didn't know two years prior. Yeah. But with you saying, I don't need any more friends, there may come a day where you realize that Bo and Nate and Peters and me, we're not as available as we once were. In fact, I got to tell you around. I want to hear something awesome. What? Harry called me this weekend? Oh my God. And I didn't pick up. Yeah. How did that taste? Nor did I even fucking reply. Oh no, you replied. Hours later. Yeah, that is true. Hours later. I was a bit thrown. I was like, what the fuck? Shump over here. And then texting and no response. I was like, what the hell is going on here? When I call you, you don't know if there's an emergency. I need you to pick up. Y'all leave. Wow. Now take that and multiply it by 4,000 and you know how I feel. But I didn't complain. I didn't complain. No. And by him bringing it up now, that is kind of him responding. Yeah. Yeah, definitely. If you had never brought it up. Yeah. I ultimately did. I knew you knew it. I'm too good of a person. I can't. Right. I can't. I also knew you would stick it to an all thing. Yeah. I played a lot of golf this weekend. I knew. I knew not to call twice. Yeah. If it's the weekend, I'm golfing. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm out there. Because you got on a t-shirt. You hit a nice course this weekend. No. Oh, I did. I played national. I was in the United States of America. Where's that in the Hamptons? Yeah. It's in South. It's adjacent. It abuts Chinacock where the US Open was. And there's a hole. I think it's 11, 10 or 11 where I mean, I was 200 yards from a green on Chinacock. Damn. You hear people clapping. That's pretty stupid. My buddy who hosted us was like, gentlemen, I want us to stop and realize that this is the closest we'll ever come to playing golf in the US Open. That's pretty cool. We'll play golf very next to the US Open. Yeah. That's pretty sweet. I'm having a pickup game right right next to the finals. Yeah. Should have started just shooting some balls there direction. Hit throw them off. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's nice. How'd you hit them? I played pretty well at national. Yeah. But it's not a very hard course. It's amazing. It's probably my favorite course in the world. But it's not that hard. You can mess anywhere. There's no, there's no real out of bounds. That's nice. Yeah. So nice fat ones for the, for the rich guys to go out have a good time on vacation. Yeah. Yeah. Bro, I was in, I was in North Carolina this weekend. Did you pick up a sweatshirt? UNC Wilmington? I did not know. Moook did though. Bro. So we were in Chicago last week, obviously flew back Thursday, flew to New York. in Wilmington on Friday morning, brutal. - That really pretty easy flight. - Pretty easy flight, but when it's the third flight of the week, when it's the third flight of the week, you're like, I can't believe I'm, like I was just at LaGuardia yesterday, and now I'm back here again today, like that sucks. - You're getting money, bro. You're just going one place, getting money, going to another place. - Exactly, that was, I had to remind myself, I was like, well, I'm getting paid, so this is good. And also the club, I gotta say, have you done that room? - No. - It's one of the best rooms I've ever done. - Come on, really? - I swear to God. - Wow. - Dad Crow Comedy Club, it is an unbelievable. - It's where Hinchcliffe shot his last breath. - Oh no, it's not. - What about it? - This isn't Wilmington? - Why didn't you just drive? - No, North Carolina, not Wilmington, Delaware. - North Carolina, not Wilmington, Delaware. - Multiple Wilmington, valid, valid. - Thought it was dull. - Valid, yeah, no, two out of drive to Wilmington, Delaware. - North Carolina, I highly recommend doing it. - Okay. - Very, very fun club. - I'll see if they have enough seats. (laughing) - It might be a little small for you, perfect size for me. (laughing) If anything, maybe a little too big. - This is called the club. - This job's broad. - I saw that, I saw it still imaging. There were people sitting on stage with you. - No. - Yes, there were. It was like, they were under the spotlight, so they were like right up on the stage. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it was like, I don't know how to, I mean, but they weren't on the stage. But, whatever, but that's besides the point. It was a very fun club. This was a first for me. I don't know if this has ever happened to you guys, and I would be curious to know your longest times. Checking into the hotel. I pulled up to the hotel. I almost fell to my knees. What's the longest amount of time it's taken you guys to check into a hotel? - 45 minutes in Vegas, where I had to wait in a long line. It's like a long check-in line. - This was over an hour. - Come on. - I swear to God. I waited, there was, I counted. I was 30 second in line. - Oh my God. - My whole system was down, I mean, it was, that's pretty much it. - Was there some sort of, but the thing that was annoying was it's all, it's all people on vacation. So they don't give a fuck. Like, I'm looking for someone to match the energy. Like, I'm ready to get loud, you know? Get angry. - Oh, yeah. - And these people, they're just thrilled to be there. So it's like, I'm in the worst mood I've maybe ever been in, and there's people in front of me, like, playing like fucking, fucking yacht rock music, like, out loud off of the JBL in line. - Yeah. - Yeah, it was, I, yeah, I was tough, tough. - Just getting a drink out of line, sending the wife - Oh, they were all drinking in line. - Yeah, yeah. - You get a drink in line, send the wife to the pool. - Yeah. - Send the kids to the pool. - Yeah. - They were all, like, so happy to be in line. And I was like, this is the most angry guy I've ever been. - Let's just shout out one. - Yeah. - And when Harry and I went to O'Hare for our first effort, to get out of Chicago on Wednesday. - Well, Harry. - We were getting delayed and delayed and delayed. And finally, we said, okay, let's just give up on this. It doesn't look good. And we stopped at an information desk. - Oh my god, this was ridiculous. - And we're, I'm on the phone with Delta, 'cause I have the Diamond Medallion Hotline, which is never more than a single minute of waiting. - The last one. - And I'm talking to her, and she's telling me to rebook for the next day or whatever. But we finished up and then we got to the guy, and Harry turned to me, and he's like, this is the type of situation where like, I feel like I'm gonna get mad. (laughing) He's like, I feel the need to get mad. - Because we waited in line for the Delta help desk or whatever it is. - The green one. - Yeah, so we wait in line. We get to the front of the line. We're like, what's going on? Like, do you think any of these flights are gonna go out? The guy pulls out the weather app on his phone. (laughing) And he's like, he's like, man, it doesn't look good. And it's like, dude, we, like, we've all got iPhones. Like, we weren't waiting in line for some-- - To open the window, yeah. - We were waiting in line for someone to look at the fucking weather on their phone. - Dude, Harry, Harry, at one point, like, turned to me and said what at that. And then he was surprised that I wasn't mad. - No, you were fired up too. - No, I was just, I was annoyed, but accepting. - No, we got outside and you were like, I'm trying really hard to not lose my cool. Right now, I'm saying what you wanted to hear. I like to feed the beast here. You're the tone center. - Misery loves company. - I feel the only time you like hanging out with me is when I'm fucking miserable too. - No, no, no. - I were both mad about the same thing. - But I genuinely don't, I can't think of a war, maybe JFK, I can't think of like a worse airport to have to go to to then leave. 'Cause that airport was so far away from everything. - I spent three hours in Ubers two and from O'Hare on the same afternoon. - Yeah, you went back, I was like, I'm dying. - I went there, I waived the white flag. - And then there again, because all of a sudden it was sunny. - I don't know, and what the fuck was that? They're like, it's gonna, I'm here and for everyone, there's gonna be tornadoes. - Yeah, you kept going to tornadoes. - Yeah, 'cause that's what they told me. - You were like, we need to find the tornado shelter here in O'Hare. - Yeah, on the yak, everyone's telling me there's gonna be tornadoes. And then I'm like, I'm telling friends, 'cause I'm like, apparently it's just gonna get worse, like this is gonna keep getting worse. - Harry was throwing tornado around in the airport as if, you know, like as if it was some kind of ice cream treat that he was hungry for. - Really, you were saying that that one? I treat tornado like saying like, gun in a movie theater. - Yeah, so do I. - I don't even put the energy into the air. - So do I. - That's how they start. - No, I was throwing it around. He was telling, didn't you tell other passengers? - Yeah, what? - I told a lady in the Delta Lounge. - That's what it was. - I said this flight's not going. - Tornados. - I said there's gonna be a tornado. - That's what he told her. 'Cause we were on her flight. We're sitting in the Delta Lounge. We're on her flight. First of all. - This was pretty baller, though, you gotta admit. When you know, like this just kind of just goes to show, like we've been here before, we've done this before. Like we didn't wait for more than five minutes. And we were like, let's get the fuck out of here. - No, hold on a second. First of all, Harry's behind me, 'cause he went through security. He doesn't have TSA precheck. I don't know why. He's some kind of conspiracy theorist. - No, I just don't. I haven't gotten it. - He doesn't want his name on any sort of pepper. - The only person that's ever waived it. - Yeah. - The only person that had it, gave it up, and I'll wait some lines. - You know how he always knocks clear? Guy jumped right into the clear line. - Oh, yeah. - You paid for it? - I've been paying for it. - He's had clear, but he hates it. But-- - I hate it. But when it's useful, it's useful. - Yeah. - It isn't not the exact business model. - Yeah, but nothing's more annoying when you're depending on it. The thing is, I just don't depend on it anymore. I used to rely on it, and then you get there, and there's more people in the clear line than the general line. - He's a bit of a clear weather fan. So the point is, he's behind me, 'cause I had TSA Priya, I just got right through, and I go into the lounge, and he comes in after me. I've chosen for our seats. - Yeah. - Which ones at the very front? Or did you go back to the left? - Back to the left. - Back to the left. - Middle of the pack. - Back to the left. - All the way back. - Not on the two food stations, not all the way back, but like kind of closer to the bathroom. - Yeah, more seating over there. - And we're there, and I went to go get some food, and when I got back, Harry was there, and then sitting next to us, was a young guy who had his shoes off and his feet in socks on a food table. Not a fucking table like this, a table that is at, you know, one person to eat food off of, and he's got his bare socks on the table, and stinky black socks. - Black? - Yeah. - Those hold more smells than white socks. - Yeah, they really do. - And look, I'm not like, I was saying to Francis, I was like, I'm not like a manor's got, like I obviously like, but like I'm not super picky about stuff like that, that stuff doesn't bother me. That was genuinely one of the craziest things I've ever seen. - Did you go smack his socks? - The guy was with his dad. - Yeah, Harry said to me. - My dad would have knocked me clean out if I did that. - And I liked hearing that from you. - Yeah, I mean, it's crazy. - We were raised similarly. I would never have done that. - I've never seen that ever. - It was truly, I mean, you know. - You gotta, we'll have to send a photo to Tyler. - The story of it, but you know, it was truly like the Chicago black sock scandal of 2026. - Really? - And his ass. - Yeah, and we walked out. Oh, as we're leaving, there's a woman who was sitting near us, 'cause we're talking about tornadoes and tsunamis and Armageddon's and talking about all the reasons we're probably not getting out that day. And we're going to La Guardia. And we're like, yeah, let's fucking bail. And this woman sees us bailing. And she pulls her headphones out. And she's like, were you guys on that La Guardia flight? - We were, yeah, we were. And she was like, and you think it, you don't think it's gonna go. And Harry was like torn it, not with the tornadoes that are barreling down. - I said, what I said was like, I've been in this situation so many times where they keep delaying it and then they just cancel it. - Right. And did you show with the max velocity, YouTube live stream? - No, but that is what all of my knowledge was coming from. - Maximum. (laughing) - Which, I don't know if there, I'm hope, it seemed like there were some tornadoes somewhere. - I mean, he was dead on where he was like, if your flight's a two, you'll get out anything later. It's gonna be dubious. - Yeah. - And it was 230 flight. It was dubious. - It was dubious. - The velocity was on the fucking money. - The velocity nailed it. But then the flight ended up going. - Yeah, I went back to the airport just hoping on a prayer. - Back to the lounge. - I checked in and I was flying standby now on our original flight that I had been booked off of. This is the plot of Home Alone. - I know. And. Um, the woman at the front desk was like, oh, there's a lot of people on standby, but maybe given your status, you'll have a shot. There were 10 seats that were not filled. I was the 10th of 10 added off of the standby list of 50 standby passengers, so you jumped some people then. I jumped 40. Oh, you were 51. I was. You were Puerto Rico. Yeah. I beat out. Yeah. You jumped to fucking. I was going to show Obama. Exactly. Yeah. It's crazy. Yeah. What the fuck? That's amazing. You know, that's how that worked. I was the last guy on. And there was a woman to my right when I sat down. I did have a middle seat, not great, but she was like, she was like, I'm surprised you're not flying a front. She was like a boy, dad fan. Oh, really? Yeah. That's funny. That's what I do. And I'll be honest. I loved it. Yeah. I got it for the first time in how I can't remember how long. I got off the flight being like, boy, my eyes don't feel bloodshot. I don't feel strained. Yeah. There's red verdant two hours. That's nice. And I'm also loving my book. I've already mentioned it a number of times. The sun by Philip Meyer, holy shit. What a book. How long is it? It's like probably 450 pages. I like that. How many else did you get through on the flight? Page a minute? 15. 80. 70. Something like that. Yeah. I don't know. I'm not that fast of a reader. No. Don't say that. I'm not even being self-deprecating. I like to enjoy the pros. Nothing wrong with that. Appreciate the grammar. Yeah. Appreciate that punctuation. I love the Jennifer. The grammar. Love what the semicolon there. Like a boy who enjoys the bachelor party in Columbia. I like the pros. Oh, wow. Very nice. And the Dominican Republic has the pros too. Is that so? I've heard. I've heard it's a very professional city. Preel. Books. The flight. All right. Hey, son of a boy ad listeners, we'll be right back, but first, a quick message from one of our partners. It's Fran from Chicks in the office. The weather is getting cooler and Abercrombie's fall drop has everything I need for the season. The best selling A&F Sloan Taylor pant is a closet staple for me. I'm always wearing it to work events. Happy hour. Anytime I want to be a bit more dressed up. And the viral Dylan dress is easy, one and done perfection. But my fall uniform will always be denim pair with a Henley sweater, a bra free top. It's comfortable, effortless. It just never fails. Change your fall capsule at Abercrombie, shop in the app online and in stores. All right. Now back to the episode. I'm going to the Senegal Norway game tonight. Oh my God. Really? Yeah. Where's it meant life? Yeah. I wanted to go to a game. That's the one. That's going to be. I mean, I don't know if it's the one. It's the one I'm going to early morning. What are you rooting for? Come on. I think Norway. I don't have anything to prove. I can root for Norway, right, with impunity. It feels like if you think they take the title for me, they're not going to. Yeah. Get on a Norway gear, though. Like what's your gear situation? I have a man's a man's sit. I mean, just like a man city, Jersey. Rolling Holland, but it's not a Holland, Jersey, but it's just like a blank man city. So does that. I don't know what that means. He play. That's his club. He's a striker on that. Yeah. That should play. That should play right? Yeah. Yeah. That's going to be sick. That's going to be like, I'm excited to hear about it, because I've heard you didn't hear about it. What the world to come? Yeah. No, I've heard. I've heard. I just don't know anyone that's been personally. But my sister and her husband went to your sister's married. Yeah. We've had this conversation like five times. What? When? Over a year ago. We went. They went on their honeymoon. Isn't that good news? Have I met her yet? No. To a game in England. Where do they live? Massachusetts. So I'll meet them at Logan? Yeah, probably. It should. I'm going in next week. Yeah. You should see them. Can you tell them to swing through? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Upstairs. Delta lounge. But they went to a game and said it was insane. Really? Yeah. Yeah. It's got to be. Who's playing? Was it the. I forget. Oh, you said it was in England. It was in England. No. It just went to like a massive soccer game. I forget what it was. A friendly, probably. Probably something like that. Uh-huh. But I mean, they look so sick. It looks so fun. Yeah. Like the environment. I got to get in with the Norwegian dudes. Just be like. Oh. Yeah. Ready? It should look sick. I think I want to go to an England game. That would be awesome. That's who I'd like to see. Yeah. It's probably expensive. Right. This one's like a random. There's even a Philly game. I think Philly, Iraq or something like that tonight is what. Or France. I'm sorry. France against Iraq and Philly. It's like what? Philly's playing against Iraq. I think I rap. Philly PD. I didn't see that coming. Yeah. No. Philly is really good this year. The Union. Uh-huh. But I think that take us to see France and Philly are more expensive just because it's France. So England would probably be expensive was the point I was clumsily trying to make. Makes sense. My clumsy has point. I haven't really kept up too much. I watched. I watched the U.S. of course. I didn't. I missed most of the get their second game. That was actually when I was checking into the hotel and I could hear people in the bar yelling about it. Yeah. But I didn't. They look good. They look good. Yeah. They look good. Are they going to win? No. No. But they could make the quarter final though. I think that they have a nice draw so far. That would be sick. We do. They say that our group has been a historically easy group. Oh, really? We haven't. This is what they always say. They say that about any team that's doing well. It's about the Patriots last year. You know, people love blaming the schedule. Fine. Yeah. They've been playing. There's just a humility around knowing that we haven't been exactly tested by worlds for power of soccer. No messy. But like random teams, you know, Spain's getting weird ties and Belgium's getting weird. You know, everything's. Yeah. It was Spain. The one where that guy looked like. Did that bet? I don't know. I don't know. You know, people do like, they'll do like the liberal. I bet a million dollars to make 80,000. Yeah. Maybe. Yeah, I saw that against Cape Verde, right? Yeah. Because people will do that with a bet like LeBron to have over 10 points. And it like for, I mean, up until like, I think towards the end of this year, it had hit every single time forever. Wow. I think pretty much since he started playing. And then one day it just didn't hit. Yeah. Lost. That's a tough way to live. Well, it's a pretty tough bet to make where you got to put in a bunch of money to make not a lot of money, but like the idea is that it's like a guarantee, it's a lock, but then it isn't. Right. Yeah. That should sound nice. Right. I've been asked betting the World Cup. Luckily, I did good during basketball, I'm like one in 10 betting the World Cup. I need some winners. Yeah. Francis, I need some winners from your brother. I won. I won when the US won the first game. And then I put another bet in and I lost in them. I'm done. Yeah. I just don't know the game. I don't know the beautiful game. Yeah. I respect the beautiful game, but I don't know it. Nothing but respect for the game. Yeah. But I do not understand. They're saying that the American team's playing a little tiki-talker stuff. Oh, really? Are they now? Who's the coach? Is it Mario and Shalottie or whatever? Marion and Shalottie. This is name. Really? And Shalottie? I got one. I got one. The Marinade and Shalottie. We got Marinade and Shalottie out there. Yeah. She's going to be sick. I'm going to, but I don't know what the travel's going to be like. It's going to. Sean said it. Yeah. We played for Parking at the American Dream Mall, which is supposed to be right next door. So it's a 50 minute walk. Supposed to be. Is really good. Supposed to be. Like that. Supposed to be. And it was pretty expensive, but just get, I mean, I just don't want to take the transit seems like a nightmare. Why is the transit so much worse than a Giants game? I don't. I actually think it's probably the same. I think just the, have you, when was the last time you've been to a Giants game? It sucked ass. Yeah. It was impossible to leave, but I didn't. When I went, last time I went to MetLife, I went to a Bales game with Shane. It was the opening game where Aaron Ames dropped her. Yeah. I'm going to name drop and I'm going to go a little bit further as well. Aaron Rodney. We had. We had field passes. Yeah. From Josh Allen, that we're given to Shane and me, of course, don't forget about me. I was in there as well. I'm sure Josh knew that. I went to Shane's apartment at 3 p.m. and he was like, we just got to get to the, we just got to get to the stadium by like 730 to get the team to get the field passes. And we left his apartment. I think at 330 and we got to the game at I think 825, yep. We did not get the field passes and the first play of the game that we saw was Aaron Rodgers getting hurt. How did you walk? We were stuck in traffic for hours, hours. There was a, there was at one point where we were at a, we were at a red light for so long. I got out of the car, went and got us beers and then came back. to the car and it had not moved. - What? Where? - This was like, it was like right up, it was like by like midtown. - What? - Yeah, it was also pouring out. - The traffic was in the city. - It was in the city and it was going into the game. It was, I think it was the first game of the year and it was Aaron Rodgers first game with the jets. - What a fucking trash stadium city set up. - And I've also had a times where I've gone and it's taking me like three hours to get home. Getting home is brutal. - Fuck, I hate to hear this. So best of luck. - Fuck you. - Yeah. - So just scumbag. - I'm just letting you know what I'm saying. I think it's probably just as bad for those games. - Yeah. - You know it wasn't bad. It was going to the Cubs game with Big Cat. - Yeah, that was super easy. - How nice is it that there's a beautiful ballpark right smack dab in the middle of the city? You just walk in. - It's pretty sick. - We walked in. - And Big Cat is like fucking Godfellas. Like that felt like we were walking in. It felt like the beginning of Godfellas. - Yeah, that was crazy that we came out through the dugout. It's all three of us were like, - You just gave that man $20. (laughing) - It's pretty crazy because I don't know if you guys felt this. It feels like there's kind of like a mutual respect between like Big Cat and like his fans. - I agree. - He'll say hi, but like don't come up and don't be like bothering and don't be annoying. - It's as if he's there so frequently that people who are there know not to just-- - There was like a couple people that would be like, can I get a photo? But for the most part everyone's just like, hey, Big Cat, and then he's like head down just like, hey, and just keeps walking. - Yeah, it's pretty cool. - That was cool. I totally agree. - And his seats are insane. - Yeah. - Right on the dugout. - Second row just passed the first base. - Yeah. - The picture comes up to you before the ending and asks like, what should I start off with? - Yeah, yeah, shakes your hands. - Should I throw the curve? - We were in a difficult spot to get foul balls or balls that were sort of foul tips that caught the pitching coach or first base coach. - Which you were pretty torn up about. - Well, I certainly was because I'll never forget getting a foul ball at a Portland Seedogs game. - Yeah. - Of course. - I ever got nine at the Boston Braves and the Born Braves. - You went to the Born Braves? - Yeah, of course. - Yeah, I didn't realize anybody was still going. - Yeah. - Pawtucket, you ever go? - Yeah, yeah, of course. - Pawtucket's got a good squad. - Great team. - Love what they're doing. - Pawtucket's a wonderful team. - I like the grandfather and tug ever last. - Who tucks his dick between his legs? - Old Pawtucket. - He's always running around the campsite with his bird out. They're like, "Pawtucket!" (all laughing) - Oh man. - Oh, very good. - Lots of e-sports stuff going on this week. - Okay. - Counter-strike Major just wrapped up. - Wait a minute, I have a question. I'm seeing all these clips. - Yeah. - Other groups are talking about you guys. - Who? - Face. - Who is it? - Oh, like the LA thieves were talking about us. - Did they all have podcasts? - Yeah, they do. They're like, they all do like a podcast with like their players, that's usually like, wait. - I had a hard time understanding if they were being a little bit like kind of, you know, curving you guys a little bit. - No, no, no. - That's the right term guys. - That's curving? - Yeah, they're curving you. - I mean, that's like, that's the top team in the league right now. - Were they being a little snide about you guys? - No. - Or were they being appreciative? - I think they're being appreciative. - That's not the way I took it. - Well, you don't know them. - I'm neither do you. - I do. - You don't know them personally. - I genuinely do. - What are their names? - Which ones? - Oh, see. - Scrap. - Scrap. - Well, government names. - Ernie. (all laughing) - Wait, wait. That's his name, it's Ernie. He's the best player in the league right now. - Right. - Talking about the bush. - One of them had like a French accent. - Yeah, that's Hydra. - Hydra. - Government. - I don't know. - I sensed a little bit of guff coming from Hydra. - Well, he's like, I mean, he's king of the world. - He's the best. - He's like, yeah, I mean, right now. - The best player of Call of Duty. - I think he won MVP at the last major. - He's the best. Call of her duty player in the world. Probably like top three. - Really? - Yeah. - If not number one right now. - Just hard to believe that a Frenchman would be good at war. - The major, the major this weekend is in Paris. It's the biggest Call of Duty event ever. There's gonna be like 30,000 people there. - Fair. - Fair. - Fair. - Okay. - That French, they love esports, love them. - Right. - I wonder why. - I don't know. - So wait a second. If you go back and watch that clip, I'm gonna tell you right now. I think you're gonna read between the lines and see that they're not that thrilled about what you guys are up to. - I don't know if we're talking about the same clip, are we? I mean, we must be. - I think they were talking about how they didn't think that you guys were paying your players enough or something like that. - Or are you saying that? - There was like, there was someone said something like $2,000 and like, they were asking for more. Maybe they thought you guys were asking for too much money for a certain player. - Oh, oh, they were probably talking about the buyout thing that happened with C9. That's what they were talking about. Now I know what you're talking about. Yeah, that's like a whole different thing. That's, yeah, we were asking for an insane amount of money. - How much? - $10,000. - And then you settled for what? - $2,000. - That is a high amount. - Yeah. - Negotiating. That's what Shaq does. - Yeah. - Start high. - Uh-huh. - That's exactly what Shaq does. - Start high and lower than you were hoping for. (laughing) - So Shaq does big deal with the magic. - And way below what you guys were expecting. - But the bush, I mean, my god. It's a dynasty. We've won the last four tournaments. - When's the next major? - This weekend. - In Paris. - So if we win this major, the dynasty will be cemented. We will be, I think we'll be the greatest challengers team of all time. - You won the previous major. - Yes. - And that was where? - In Atlanta. - If I'm another challengers team, I'm like pissed off. - Oh yeah. - And just like, all right, just go to the pros now. Like stop being like a super team and like let everybody compete. - Yeah, that's what is happening. - Now that I think about it, they were saying that they thought you guys should be pros. - Yeah, yeah, our team should be. - Is there a chance you'll get promoted? - No, no. - Why not? - Because the way that it works is there's so much money and it's enough with the money. It's all out here. Can we argue? - I'll give you the full rundown. The way that what happened is the way that all esports work pretty much is that it's like open bracket. Like anyone can really compete and you can sort of work your way up to being considered like a pro team. Call of Duty in 2019, I think franchised. So now there's only 12 teams and they want each of the 12 teams to like represent like a city. So that like the idea would be like there's a team like the Boston breach. Like the idea would be like people from Boston would be like, go breach, like I love the breach. In reality, no one in Boston gives a fuck about the Boston breach or really a lot of people don't really care about esports. So that didn't work at all. Those teams all had to pay $20 million to get into the league to get their spot. A couple years later, no one was getting the returns that they were promised. They were all promised that like they were gonna be making a ton of money off of like. - Who got the 20 million? - What do you mean? - They all paid 20 million to who? - Activision. Activision's the company that owns Call of Duty. - What? - So they were all promised these things like they were gonna make a bunch of money from like the micro transactions in games, like buying skins off of like sponsorship, off of viewership. All this did was actually it hurt the league more than anything because now instead of getting this like open bracket style where you're like there's like pro-ams. Like it used to be like every tournament would be like a pro-am. And now it's you're watching the same 12 pro teams play each other every single time. When in reality only four of those pro teams are even competitive. So then the bottom eight teams are like our players could beat a lot of those teams. So the reason that we can't just get into the pro league is because those people, they were refunded their 20 million dollars because of how poorly everything went. But still like there's this exclusivity to it where they don't wanna just let us in for free when they've had to go through all of this. - When they had to give money and got all the money back. - Well, I think they got most of it back but they didn't get it all back. - Got it. - So like they don't want us to just come in and reap all the benefits that they were promised when they had to spend all this money. - Oh, so they got an embargo on you guys. - Pretty much. So like we have to like right now would not even be, it would be stupid for us to go to the league right now. - 'Cause you really should be trying to just like be like, hey, nobody should have ever gave money to Activision. This should be by the people, for the people. - Exactly. - And everybody should just compete at our league. Like you need to get pro-ams going against those top four teams and just get them down to play against you guys. - No, that's like exactly like what needs to happen. - Would they be allowed to do that? - No, by no means. - But like allowed by Activision, by the man, by the corporation. - Activision would not let that happen. - Paul Raeble started a rival LaCrosse league a number of years ago called the PLL. Up to that point, it was just the MLL. As far as outdoor LaCrosse went. - Yeah. - And they underpaid their players. It was poorly organized, fan turnout was not very good. He built a new league and then all the MLL players came over. - But then he starts dating Diana Rossini and it's like, what's, all right, coach Raeble. Like, I don't know why you want to do that. That kind of like undercuts the whole PLO thing because they had a good thing going. Yeah. Well, yeah. You fucked it all up. But AJ Brown is going to be playing PLO this year, so yeah, I mean, the whole thing's broken. It fun fact. This is a fun fact. We have out earned with the, so we've won eight tournaments this year. We've out earned eight of the 12 CDL teams this year in terms of winnings all of them combined. I mean, no, like we have made more money from prize winnings than for the players. Then yeah. Right. For the players. Oh, oh, the top flight then, uh, it can comparison to, so this is kind of my point. Isn't there an argument to be made that the pro league would benefit from the exposure that Bush brings to the game that the esports goals 1,000%, but why don't you make that argument? That's the only argument. Okay. That's some point. It's not it's like they know that the league knows that we know that it's the billion dollar owners of these teams that put all this money into it that would refuse to let that happen. I'm just saying that if you somehow got into the top flight, I bet you that these sponsorships for Bush. Oh, yeah. The level of, uh, seriousness with which the company would take you guys 100 every thing is going to start floating your way. But also something you have to consider is that the overhead for us right now is very small compared to if we were in the pro league, everyone has to get paid at an actual $60,000 a year salary, including the coach, like it's just not an option right now. Yeah. And the people he's fighting against are the Saudis sort of someone. Jordanians. No, no. They are the Saudis. Oh, they don't own the whole league. Got it. Got it. But those are the owners who are like, don't let them in. Oh, no. They don't give a thought they would probably love for us to be in. It's the owners that don't that wouldn't want us to be in. Who are those billionaires are the bottom teams who like think that they got like fucked over. And now they just like. Who's like, what statue do we have to to to a handcuff ourselves to to make this happen? Who's office? Do we have to storm in mass to make this happen? I don't want to say it, but Robert Kraft to be honest, yeah, wait till Dave could just talk to him. Okay. Apparently Dave talked to them and they were like, we lost a shit on the money. What about what what if meek Mill and Jay Z talked to him now that that could work didn't that I think this weekend they just bought him a May back. They bought him a new May back. Yeah. The one he's all I saw that I did see that yeah, meek Mill and Robert meek Mill and Jay Z and someone else bought Robert Kraft a May back. Yeah. I saw why? Cause he needed it. Yeah. He wanted it really bad. Yeah. And it was his 60 second birthday or some she wanted it really bad. But for some reason he didn't already have it even though he could probably buy the dealership and of those easily, but he had to get gifted a May back, the fact that they're going in on a gift is a little bit or yes, a little more. You know what I mean? By him your own may, yeah, let him ride them like Santa Claus whipping 12 May backs in front of him. That's the dream. Summer always change it.

Now back to the episode, see he he's still doing that whole thing, the whole like a prison reform. No, the craft, what the blue square, what's that the he's like he has a whole like is it in Gillette where they have the whole like system that's like monitoring like Jewish hate online. I don't know what he's you've never seen this no, I don't think I have. Oh, this is crazy. He's got like a whole like it's it looks like it's straight out of like the CIA. And they've got like like TVs on the screen like tracking tweets and stuff. And it's like if you walk into a stadium, you get banned because you know he's doing it as like a worldwide thing and it just happens to be happening like at Gillette. There was like a video of him like walking someone on the Patriots like through the whole thing. It was very it was it was interest got to be Edelman, it wasn't really. Yeah, I think it was will Campbell. He was talking will Campbell through it like you see this. Yeah, yeah, but if you seem like the actual like a lab that they've got they have a lab is it like in the dark night where he's like literally like it's genuinely like that. I'll have to destroy the system when I'm done with it. This is too powerful for one man. No, it is this. Yeah. Wow. He's got a whole fucking yeah, it's near joy at areas in the lab. All right, don't tell me it's just a computer. Blue Square Alliance against hate. That doesn't really roll off the tongue that well now. This is all craft. Yeah, look at this. Look at this. Well, they have it on really big screens. It's like a NASA launch. Isn't it? Yeah, it does. Like that. Oh, wow. It's in a boardroom. Yeah. They did they used jumbo tron technology on the fascinating and it's broken down in the like categories. Did you see that Holocaust related? I don't know any of the stuff. This is all. Wow. I do hate Jewish hate. Of course. Who doesn't? I don't know. You're kind of making a light of Jewish hate. I'm making light of the facility of the Jewish hate that proper craft runs. This is why this is why the Boston breach can't succeed. All of the money's going into the blue square alliance. But you guys are talking about them, the bush calls. They're trying to stop hate and by the way, they're getting gifted may backs. Classic. Fascinating. Truly fascinating. Shit. I feel like I'm getting a good sweat going in here today. So nice fits little sauna. We should get one of those, the rocks right here. Yeah. You pour some body armor on them and it just steams up the room. Yeah. Yeah. Pour some more, pour a little more body armor on those rocks. Is anyone ever done a podcast in a shower or is that dangerous or a sauna? Do you think that you would die? No, I don't think you'd die, but maybe you'd get like electrocuted guys. I turned my shower on this morning and the water came out dark brown. Really? Yeah. There's no picture of it. I'll send it to Tyler to put on the screen, but that happens every time I try to draw bath for my kids. I have to let it run for. There was this the whole time. Yeah. The fuck? Yeah. That happens to both of you? Yeah. We get, it's from the fracking. Jesus. I've never had that ever. Must be nice. Yeah. It's got fucking black sludge coming out of your sinks. Well, it's just where my kids fit. Yeah. Where I found a bunch of anti-smetic tweets of mine and changed my water. Now it only rains over his apartment. Where we divert the sewage pipe with the clean water pipe and see how he likes that for a day or two. Six months of black sludge for Alice. The black sludge that was promised. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely foul. Yeah, I can't wait for this game. It's going to be so fucking nice. Do you watch any Love Island? No. I did watch a documentary that would be right up your guys, Ali. It was the darkest, most depressing thing I've ever heard or saw in my life. What was it? It was about some lady that like gets pulled over for having a baby. Oh, I saw this. I saw the trailer and now I did not even. It's the lowest vibration, darkest energy. Yeah. Nothing from it. I don't really know about time. You got to see it. As soon as I saw the even the description, I was like, yeah, now I'm good on that. It's a darker movie. It's a dark number one on Netflix. It's so dark and terrible. You have to watch it. Is it actually worth watching? Absolutely not. You got to see it. Yeah. And now I'm not going to skip that. I literally added nothing to my life. And it's only and I hate to be going on a sexist rant, but it's for the girls. This is all for girls. Girls are doing this. Yeah. Dude, they're not clamoring for this. I'm kind of out on just like the true crime in general. Like I think that that crash documentary was kind of the last one for me where I was like, I was like, this wasn't even really that good. And it kind of just was like depressing, and then I don't, I'm not really getting anything out of this. Doc miniseries is for sure. And that's why I was drawn to this one as like, it's an hour 26 and they tell the whole story. Yeah. I'm in. But nope. Not worth it. No crimes where it's just like something that happened in like a local town that like no one's ever really heard about. And like maybe one person died brutally. It's like, do we really need a whole business, bro? - Yeah, that doesn't need to be made into a movie. Like it's just like a tragedy, like I get it more when it's like Ted Bundy, you're like, how's it going? - Well no, it's more so just like how did this even happen? Like he killed like 80 people or some shit. Like how did you go? You got to, you want to learn about it. That's more interesting 'cause of like the absurdity of it. But like, yeah, I don't need to see a documentary about a girl driving her fucking boyfriend into a tree. Like I'm sure that happens quite a bit, you know? (laughing) I mean, look, like we don't need to make a documentary about every car crash that happens. - Yeah, yeah. - It's just like, doesn't it feel a little wrong? - I totally agree. - Like when it's on a-- - I think it's dark, dark low vibration energy. - Yeah, but like it doesn't, like it feels more wrong when it's like a smaller story for some reason. - Well, 'cause it's, these people were never meant to be famous and now everybody who's involved with the story's life is ruined. - Yeah. - And it's like now they have a, there's a spotlight on them. - Yeah, it's just like-- - Now there's a chance they get like, like Oklahoma Panhandle pussy off of it. - Yeah, that's true. - That is true. - They'll get local, a local crazy woman. That's the best case scenario. (laughing) All right. (upbeat music) All right. - Cool. (upbeat music) (upbeat music)
