Speaker 1 (02:16):
So are you just going straight to the pool after

in at the gym, and then I'm gonna come home
and shower up and then I'm a yeah, I'm a
grill and I'm gonna go in the pool.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
And then how many drinks are we think of today?
You're gonna get buckled?
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Ah Man, you know I've been drinking watermelon in tequila.
That's been my drink lately. And there's something I guess
there's a study that's been done about how healthy watermelon
is for you, and watermelon and juice and stuff like that,
like freshly squeezed watermelon juice. I kind of been filling
really good drinking watermelon juice and tequila. So it could
(03:08):
go down today, It really could go down.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Have you seen the what people do? They'll cut a
hole in a watermelon. Just let me finish the story
before you take your take us somewhere else. They cut
a hole in the watermelon and they they empty. I
got this show's full of land mind?
Speaker 3 (03:26):
How big? How big is the hole? What's filling the hole?
All right? Got? God?
Speaker 1 (03:33):
God my case? But no, So you you cut a
hole in a watermelon and you empty you It's unbelievable.
I can't even.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
It's go ahead, good, you got problems.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
You got three twelve year olds doing a radio show.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
You Okay, tell us what you do after you drill
the hole? All right, So you drill it, all.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Right, So you cut this hole in a watermelon. Spray
it with perfume. No, but you cut after you put
a wig on it, you know. But you cut this,
you cut the watermelon. Uh. And so you take a
(04:21):
bottle of tequila or whatever your alcohol is, and you
empty it in the watermelon, and the watermelon will soak
up the tequila. You put it in the fridge or
the freezer, you know, whatever it is to make sure
it keeps cold. And then you cut slices of the
watermelon afterwards like a shot. Yeah. And so when you're
eating the watermelon slices, it's soaked with tequila.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
Yeah. You know that's like drinking like that's like drinking
a stolely doli. You know how they like stack the
the pineapple slices and then put all of that vodka.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Oh And then it just sits there and it just
soaks up, and then it's ready to go and you
get that nice, nice taste with it. I'm not a
big I used to drink a lot of stolies like that.
Used to be my go to drink, especially when I
go to like Capital Grill. Thats like Stolely Dolies at
Capital Grill are amazing. But I've just been in tequila,
(05:17):
Like I have not been able to leave from tequila
for for years now. It's been a really really long
time of me, you know, being on a run with tequila.
I don't know, it's like really all I drink anymore.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Do you like your marks blended or do you like
them just like them?
Speaker 3 (05:34):
I like them wet, man, Yeah, I like it wet.
Listen the type of day it was like over a hundred.
You don't want it dry, you know what I mean?
You want uh you know today yesterday was like over
one hundred. It was like over one hundred degrees.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
It's gonna be hot, man.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
So so when it's hot like that, a you know,
the the blended ones are pretty good. It's not that's
not it's tolerable to the blended one, yeah, you know,
but generally I just like it on the rocks.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
You know, you got to add a little something to
a margarita and called a vargarita.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Well, I don't like see margarita's to me is because
of the rim, you know, and for certain you know,
for me, I'm not a rimmer, you know what I mean,
I don't I don't. I don't like rooms.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
So talk about your car, like the in your car.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Yeah, I don't do on my car anymore either. That's
that's like, yeah, that was when I was younger.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
Well, in these parts, that's the way the way it's
going out here. You'll lose those uh well dependently yeah,
I mean you know that or a catalytic converter.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
Uh yeah, they were, Yeah, they'll come get them right
in the parking.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
But it's like, you know, like the LeVar Islands, like
it's a little uh you add a little something specialto Yeah,
So you gotta find something.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
You got it, bro, you gotta try it just one time.
You gotta do. And it's got to be a place
like you gotta it's it's weird. You gotta go to
like I don't want to say cheapy place, but you
got to go to like places where you know they're
going to make a really good long island. Like if
you went to like TGI Fridays or Applebee's, you know
you'll get a good long island there.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
It was the that was the most difficult glass to
clean when I worked at TGI Fridays as a bar back,
because they would put the sugar on the rim and
then they would make the long island and so like
you could just smell all the alcohol, and trying to
get the sugar off the rim when you would clean
the glass was always a pain in the ass.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
Interesting.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Yeah, listen, they they sold so many of those and
I couldn't figure out why. And then somebody told me
how much alcohol is.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
In quickly it gets you there.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Like literally two of those for a happy hour. Oh
to get you there, Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
At Amaretto never thought to do it until I was
at at at Zimbeest shots out to Zembest, home of
the LeVar Island, and they added Amaretto. And I was like, dang,
this is this is amazing, this is this is the
most phenomenal one I've ever had in my life. I
can't understand it. What did you do? They were like,
(08:07):
it's an well, I don't know, like this like they
I don't even know if they were aware that they
did it. And then we talked through it and then
we figured out that the missing ingredient was amaretto. I
mean it gave it such an interesting taste to changed
the whole dynamic and personality of the Long Island. But
yet it was still Long Island, but just became Levarlan.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
We're talking about bottling it up, We're talking about selling it.
There's a strong chance we may do a Zimbie's LaVar
Allen and sell it.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
How about it. That's in State College, right.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
It's a Harrisburg. It's in the capitol, so it's a
capital drink, you know what I mean, It's a capital affair.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
I would also like to say this that, uh so
they've got the Nathan to hot Dog eating contest coming up.
And I think you said yesterday that you could could
you do what was it, a dozen Krispy Kremes if
you had to, like the Christma Kream donuts.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
I could easily do in a time frame too, like
ten minutes. Easily a dozen I could do. I could
do a dozen Krispy Kreams in less than five minutes,
fresh like like you know, light on, like light on
Krispy Kreams.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Yeah, I mean that's impressive.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
I could do probably two boxes of those. I could
run through those now, I would get sick, but I
could run through them.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
So because I've been thinking about this, So these guys
are you know that aren't Joey Chestnut. He's going to be,
you know, with the soldiers doing whatever he's doing, I
think on YouTube today. But they've got the Nathan's Hot
Dog Eating Contest coming up later on and that was
part of our over unders. You can gamble on the
Nathan's Hot Didding hot Dog Eating Contest, And I was
just thinking to myself, like I always wonder what does
(09:57):
this do to them from a physical.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
Standpoint, because I really do.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
I'll say this. I when I was working out this morning,
they were showing a thirty for thirty on Kobayashi versus
Joey Chestnut the hot dog eating contests, and I super
and they're they're gonna be the ones that are going
head to head on Labor Day. Like that's the big
event that's taking place on Netflix. But I don't know
(10:23):
what it did to Kobe Ashi from a physical standpoint.
But that guy looks like he hasn't brushed his teeth
in at least ten years. Oh, Like I'll just say
that he's he's got a mouthful of margarine. And I
don't know if it's because of the stuff he was
eating and how much he ate in like a matter
of ten minutes at a time, but I never see
that's a guy who when they brought out the mask,
(10:46):
Mandates was like, sweet, can we do this forever? Like
it is shocking how bad his teeth are straight yellow,
like no mouthful of butter. I'm I'm not making that up.
You can look it up. It is just it.
Speaker 5 (11:01):
Is just.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
I don't know right now. I don't know if that's
like sort of a side effect from competitive eating throughout
the course of your life. But they showed him early on, young,
look in good shape, you know, a decent looking guy,
great smile, and then they show him for thirty for
thirty and it's just like he's got abazaba rappers in
(11:27):
his mouth and he's like it's just like it is disgusting.
The kid is so I listen. I don't know if
that's what they're going through, but you know, if they are,
just hope it was worth it. Say that, just hope
it was worth it for you guys. It is uh,
you see it, you see it. You see what I'm saying. God,
(11:58):
what I'm talking about.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Florescent color.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
I'm telling you, like, you know, like it's just hey, man.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Goad, come what what what you know? No better for his.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
By the way, literally from eating all that colmb bread.
I guess it is just it's you know, but again,
Lesson learned, uh, don't eat highlighters because I could I
could result in uh in in issues uh with your
(12:53):
with your grill afterwards. So I don't know if that's
part of it. I don't know if that's what comes
with it, but yeah, it's it's been a shocking turn
for him from a from a dental standpoint, So is
what it is. That being said, we transitioned smoothly away
from that over to this Aiden Hutchinson, your guy of
(13:16):
the of the Detroit Lions. So he was talking recently
and he was just kind of pointing out how they've got,
you know, high hopes, high expectations for this upcoming season
and they feel like this year is the year and
every year is the year. Can I just say this
kind of lost in the shuffle of the chaos and
(13:36):
everything that happened last postseason. And we talked earlier in
the show about Jordan Love and you know what, they
did to Dallas, and they kind of gave away that
game against the forty nine ers. I know that everybody's
optimistic about the Detroit Lions moving.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
FROs gave the game away too.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
And listen in a conference championship game the way they
did it, like law the averages would say, more often
than not, that's as close as you get, like unless
you're a New England with Brady Kansas City with Mahomes.
The Niners have proven at time and time again. But
(14:13):
they were there, had that game on the road on
the doorstep of going to a super Bowl, and we're
optimistic there. But I'll just say this, I can remember
there was a lot of people who are optimistic about
the future of the Lions the last time where they
were in a conference championship game, that was nineteen ninety two.
It just it feels like if I were to bet
(14:37):
whether or not they get to that same place this
upcoming year, I'm not my odds on that. I feel
like would be in the favor of them not being
able to repeat what they did and the way that
they lost that game and Dan Campbell going for it
on fourth down like he did, and some of the
play calls down the stretch. I just wonder if that's
going to be a game that come back, comes back
and haunts that franchise and that fan base for the
(15:00):
time to come, for years to come.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
Rather, Yeah, I don't think so. You like on them.
I'm high on the structure of their team. It's it's
the way they're built is the reason why I think
that they will continue to have success. Now, can they
repeat and get as far as they did last year,
I'm not sure about that. But will they be right
up there in the mix? To me, are they the
(15:24):
far and away leader and and expected winner of the
the NFC North? Absolutely? Absolutely. I do think that Green
Bay can be an issue and be a problem. But
they play defense, and they play and they run the
ball and can throw the ball. So when you look
at the way that this this Detroit team is built, man,
(15:46):
I think they're built to have success and it's going
to be sustainable. You know, Dan Campbell and that that
team that that that group of decision makers, they really
did a great job of building out a team with
the type of personnel where it fits the personality of
the head coach. And so I don't I don't see
(16:08):
that's slowing down.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
To be honest, which which team that lost in the
conference championship game last year or you were more optimistic one,
Baltimore or Detroit.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
That's a good one. I think that's a really good one.
I'ma I'm gonna say Baltimore. I'm gonna keep saying Baltimore
because I just can't understand how they keep coming up short.
So at some point it's gonna come together for Baltimore,
I believe, But I would not be shocked if it
is Detroit. I'm I'm high on Detroit. The NFC is
(16:43):
not the craziest, hardest division to to navigate anyway. No,
And and so when you look at what they may
have to to go through in order to get back
to that that championship weekend, I think the odds are
more favor of them than it would be for the
Baltimore Ravens. It's going to be a much harder, much
(17:04):
harder task for the Ravens, even though I still think
that they're they're built to be able to do it.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Yeah, the path is definitely easier. I just every time
I see a team come up short in a game
in the NFL. That and it's a team who doesn't
get a lot of opportunities to do it. Every time
they come up short and you look back and go,
you probably should have won that game. I just can't
help but think, like, damn, that might have been their
best shot. Like and I think the most recent example
is Buffalo, Like Buffalo giving up that lead with thirteen
(17:32):
seconds left to the Chiefs in the playoffs a couple
of years ago. It just hasn't felt like they were
anywhere closer, like that was their their real opportunity to
try and advance and do something special. And and so
now we get a wait to see this upcoming season,
but nonetheless it'll be fun either way. It is Two
Pros and a Cup of Joe. Fox Sports Radio, LeVar Arrington,

Two Pros and a cup of Joe, Fox Sports Radio,
LeVar Arrington, Jonas Knox with you here. Happy fourth July
to you and yours coming up here at about twenty
minutes from now from the tire rack dot Com Studios,
we are going to close up shop with a net
edition of You In or You Out. That'll be yours
here again twenty minutes from now. So uh Mark Schlareth
(19:09):
who is awesome and is a great broadcaster. Yeah, he's
also in a great interview I bother he would be
a guy that would be fun to have on the air, like, yeah, yeah,
he's he's fantastic. So Mark Schlareth, Uh, you know, I
think you just got a little bit fed up, maybe
from hearing from a certain fan base. That fan base,
(19:31):
as we mentioned, you know, a short time ago, we
were talking about the Baltimore Ravens and what the future
could look like this Mark Schlareth on The Stinking Truth podcast.
He spoke about some of the excuses that he's heard
about when it comes to their inability to get it
done into the postseason. Let's take a listen.
Speaker 7 (19:50):
I do not want to hear from all of you
out there that are telling me that Lamar Jackson, well,
they don't get him weapons. How many first round wide
receivers you need to draft, Well, they're not drafting the
right one. Well you're not developing them. Well how do
you develop them? Well, your quarterback has a long way
to go in developing wide receivers. So I don't want
(20:11):
to hear that bully from you anymore. And you Baltimore fans,
I'm tired of it. They drafted first round of talent,
They've drafted tight ends in the first round, they drafted
three different wide receivers since twenty eighteen. In the first round.
Aaron Rodgers went what sixteen seventeen years with the Green
Bay Packers. They never drafted a guy in the first round,
(20:34):
whether it was a tight end or a wide receiver
for him. So, don't tell me about it. I mean,
it's one of those things. Don't tell me about the
paint showing me the baby produced in the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
That was Mark Shleara talking about the Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
And that's fair. Yeah, that's a fair point. Agree, it
really is. I mean, and it's been long enough. And listen,
he's I mean, he just won the MVP Award again. Yeah,
so it's not like, well, give him some more time
to develop, and like you said, like no, And then
(21:09):
as far as it's who you're drafting and who he's had,
he's had talent from tight ends on out to receivers,
he's had talent. He still has talent. And this is
just one of those deals where I don't know if
it's a mental block or I just don't know, or
(21:30):
it's just it's very hard. It's very difficult to have
a large measure of success in the playoffs. But Baltimore
just has not been able to solve that riddle. And
while you can sit there and look at at Hardball
and say he does have a super Bowl and he
(21:51):
does come very close, very often to getting to Super Bowls,
he just hasn't been able to to do it as
of late. And with Lamar Jackson, So you're going to
come under scrutiny, and you're going to fall under scrutiny
when you have a quarterback of that stature and that
caliber and you're not you're not you know, getting it
(22:14):
getting it done. I mean you you saw it with
Green Bay and Aaron Rodgers. You know, two super Bowls
but only one one I believe, right or one?
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Yeah, he went to one super Bowl. He did went
to one Super but they went to a bunch of
NFC title game.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
Correct. There you go. So, so the whole thing with
having a guy that has the type of ability that
that Lamar Jackson has but can't seem to to get
it all the way done. Like if we're talking god
gifted skills and you align him next to line them
(22:49):
up right next to Patrick Mahomes, I can guarantee you
you're going to get more boxes checked off on Lamar
Jackson's side, and if you look at if you look
at how these teams were built last year, I think
you would say that Baltimore had the better team. That's
on both sides of the ball.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
That's my whole thing, is I like of all the years.
So we were like in the NBA, we were doing
this with the Celtics last year and then this year
to where listen, if you don't do it this year,
with everything set up the way that it is, when
is it going to happen?
Speaker 3 (23:22):
And ultimately that that was this year for Baltimore. That
was this year, bro.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Like literally, if you just want to go from inside out,
like in your own division, Joe Burrow got hurt, Cincinnati
was a shell themselves. Pittsburgh, you know, was trying to
figure out whatever they were trying to figure out. They
made the playoffs, but I think everybody recognized, you know,
if Baltimore had something to play for that final game,
maybe Pittsburgh doesn't get into the postseason. And then you
look at the Browns. Deshaun Watson got hurt, Joe Flacco
(23:50):
came in off the couch and led them to the playoffs,
and they got annihilated by Houston. But if you look
like and then you stretch farther out Kansas City, I
know we can look back and say, well, they're the
Super Bowl champs, best team in the league. All that
is true. Here's what else is true. It looked like
they were imploding last year, Like there was a lot
of you know, like Travis Kelcey frustrated them, not happy.
(24:13):
You know, is this a down year for Kansas City?
They're not the same team. Once they got to the postseason,
they figured it out. Baltimore was rolling and had the
AFC title game at home. They were a four and
a half point favorite at home against Kansas City and
looked awful, like completely melted down. People were talking about
(24:35):
the play calling they were talking about. I think you
even pointed out, like, man, if you're the defensive coordinator,
if you're Mike McDonald for the Ravens, how are you
letting Travis Kelsey do what he's doing to you when
he's all that he's got. Like just and it's not
only on Lamar Jackson from an organizational standpoint, they've kind
of melted down in the postseason the past couple of
(24:55):
times we've seen him, I mean every time right, yeah,
like it just and then every time.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
And I think that's what Stink is alluding to, is
that at some point you can't you stop the stop
the excuses. I don't think he's saying it in malice,
like I'm upset with you guys. You guys make excuses
for Lamar Jackson all the time in the Ravens. I don't.
I don't think that's the point at all. I think
the point is that you should be okay with criticisms
(25:22):
coming their way until they prove otherwise. You You can
be defensive in some regards, in some aspects, but don't
be delusional, right, Like, accept it for what it is.
What it is is you have a really good team
that doesn't do as well as they could do in
the playoffs with Lamar Jackson at quarterback, and he's winning,
(25:48):
he's winning titles in terms of a Player of the Year,
MVP of the year, and they're they're coming up short
every time they're in the playoffs. There's there's They're can
be nothing wrong with that because that is an accurate conclusion,
that is accurate information. And so until they change that. Now,
(26:11):
what makes it cool for fans is I do believe
at some point they are going to touch down. I
really do. At some point this Ravens team is going
to touch down and get all the way there, and
it might be going through Kansas City. It might be
Kansas City opportunistically got knocked off by someone else and
(26:31):
then it led to them having a clear path to
the super Bowl. But it's going to happen. I believe
it is going to happen for the Baltimore Ravens at
some point.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
Do you think it happens within the next two to
three years? And I only give that number for this reason.
With Lamar Jackson's style of play, Is he the same
player three to four years from now? Because I would
say no. And if that's the case, maybe this window
is a little bit smaller than we realize with him
at quarterback.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
It's it could. I think it could go either way. Jonas.
I think if he maintains his health and he continues
to love the game and not let it turn into
turn into a business, turn into something different, but yet
turning turning himself into an even more educated player. Because
(27:24):
I think he's complete already. Like for those who may
not think he's a complete player, I think he's a
complete player.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
Love today, he's made my favorite player in the league.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
I just think that there's more of the understanding of
what he can do to give himself, you know, more
opportunities for success, his teammates, more opportunities for success. What
does that look like, What does that element of evolution
for him look like? Moving forward into the future of
his career. And I think those pieces of his game,
if he's working to develop those, I mean, we could
(27:55):
be six seven years in and and just just in
all of how much he's grown as a player. So
to me, I don't I don't give him a small window.
To be honest, I give him, I give him, I
give him at least, you know, I give him six
to seven, six to eight, where I believe he's going
(28:16):
to be on a tear for that amount of time
at high level athletically. But to me, I think within
the next you know, next year or so, next year,
two or three at the most, you start to see
an evolved version of Lamar Jackson, a more veteran driven
(28:37):
Lamar Jackson, a more wiser Lamar Jackson that has way more,
way more effectiveness and some of the things that we
you know, might not have seen earlier on in his
in his career. I think he gets better.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
That's why when we were talking about, you know, just
based on last year, which team that lost in the
conference championship game? Do you have more confidence in getting back?
Like I look at it and I go, all right,
I would agree with you. I think Detroit, just because
the path to get there is a little bit easier
and just I can't help but look at Baltimore this
past season and go, if you were to tell me
(29:12):
before the year, all the injuries in your division, Kansas
City's got a down year, Buffalo's got all sorts of
issues going on. Aaron Rodgers gets hurt four plays in.
You're the best team in the league all the way through.
You've got home field advantage, your favorite at home in
the AFC title game. I'll take that every day. On
them being able to cash in and still couldn't figure
(29:32):
it out and looked like they were terrible in that,
Like like Zay Flowers fumble at the goal line in
the AFC like it like it was a it wasn't
just a Lamar Jackson. Yes, Like and I look at
it and I go, man, like.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
That's the gang, right, there, Yes, say Flowers, that's that's
literally the game.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
And just fumbled and then they got that the fifteen
yard penalty after he caught a ball deep down the
middle of the field and he was taunting and then
got popped for a bit. Like everything that could have
gone wrong went wrong for them in that game.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
At least big plays, big moments. Yes, it wasn't like
everything went wrong. It was like, but what to your point?
Big moments like things that actually change the momentum of
an entire game, not just not just that drive, but
it changes the momentum of the entire game. That's what
(30:27):
happened to them this last year.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
So I mean just didn't run the ball, didn't like it.
Just the whole thing was bizarre, man Like, I I
mean that that really.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
He was getting sacked, Yeah, getting rushed like who's fast
enough to make him uncomfortable? You know, but it was happening.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
So yeah, listen, I think Mark Shlayer's got a lot
of got a lot of valid points there. It is
a two pros and a cup of Joe. Here on
Fox Sports Radio, LeVar Arrington, Jonas Knox with you coming up.

if you were with us and you're a regular listener,
we will be back here coming up on Tuesday, So
make sure you stick around for that or I mean
you can stick around or just come back on Tuesday,
whatever you choose. Pick a card in any card, any
call before we get to another edition of you any out,
I want to remind you shortly after the show, our
podcast will be going up. So if you've missed any
(35:32):
of today's show, including how we called Lee de Lap
and got sent to voicemail because he's probably lying in
a puddle of vomit somewhere on Thursday mornings.
Speaker 3 (35:43):
He really did call in July, we did, and he
really did not even respond to the text messages after
the call, and I.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
Sent him one to you as well that I thought
for sure would get a reaction out of somebody, and
I got nothing. Nothing, completely shut.
Speaker 3 (35:57):
Out, shut out, can it?
Speaker 1 (36:01):
But you can search two Pros wherever get your podcast.
Be sure to also follow rate and review the pod.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
Again.
Speaker 1 (36:06):
Just search two Pros wherever you get your podcast. You'll
see this show posted right after we get off the air.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
This two pros in a cup of show?
Speaker 1 (36:14):
What even enough?
Speaker 2 (36:16):
If they're at least four?
Speaker 1 (36:19):
If they're out all right, Rowdy and Roddy, what do
we got?
Speaker 5 (36:23):
All right?
Speaker 10 (36:23):
So I'll start with this one as it requires kind
of the most setup. So Joey Chestnutt is going to
be streaming his own fourth of July hot dog eating contest.
You recall he was banned from the Coney Island Nathan's one,
So he's gonna be having his own streamed on his
own YouTube channel, and it's gonna be held at the
Fort Bliss Army Base in El Paso, Texas.
Speaker 5 (36:41):
He's competing against soldiers.
Speaker 10 (36:43):
The catch though, is that he's gonna be doing it
in five minutes as opposed to the ten minutes at
Coney Island and says that he can. His aim is
to beat whoever wins the Coney Island one in half
the time, So.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
To hey, what a goal.
Speaker 3 (36:56):
Hey, it's kind of gangster dope.
Speaker 5 (36:58):
I kind of respect it to but.
Speaker 3 (37:00):
Into that type of stuff. I mean, it's smart.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
What's your boyfriend do for a living? Shoves hot dogs
in his mouth in five.
Speaker 3 (37:06):
Minutes and buns?
Speaker 1 (37:08):
Guy's a disaster, Like it's so disgusting, Well you enter
out out. I'm not. First of all, I'm not. I'm
not going to watch the actual hot dog eating contest.
I'm gonna go like search for this on YouTube or
bumble or some other place to try and find Joey
Chestnut eating hot dogs in five minutes with soldiers. Now, listen,
(37:28):
there's a baseball game, and I'll watch a baseball game.
Speaker 3 (37:30):
I mean, the Soldier park has me sold. If you
told me that there was some type of give back
to the soldiers, is there.
Speaker 5 (37:39):
I couldn't tell you. Couldn't tell you that one.
Speaker 3 (37:42):
If it's just doing it with soldiers to do it,
I'm out, by the way. If it, if it benefits
our soldiers in some way, like he's you know, donating
part of the proceeds back, I'm.
Speaker 1 (37:51):
In yeah that that, but oh no, the ball again,
the balls on Joey Chestnut. Imagine if he did show
up there or just for five minutes to take their
money and leave I and not even donate back. I
don't know if that's the case, but if so, I'm
definitely out all right.
Speaker 10 (38:11):
Next up, fireworks past ten pm on the fourth of July?
Speaker 5 (38:16):
Are you er? You out?
Speaker 3 (38:17):

Speaker 5 (38:17):
And LaVar's in Jonas quick one?
Speaker 1 (38:22):
Enough enough.
Speaker 3 (38:24):
Enough old way frad So why not see some frying
in the air.
Speaker 1 (38:28):
It's just enough enough.
Speaker 3 (38:30):
I might be floating up there with with the head
with the fireworks.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
So you gotta you mentioned.
Speaker 3 (38:38):
I guah who like half baked out this jo it?
Speaker 1 (38:46):
So you bet like it gets dark out? Like what
do you like about nine nine fifteen something like that. Right,
you got an hour if you if you can't get
your if you can't get your rocks off in an
hour with your fire works, then you're just not doing
it right.
Speaker 3 (39:03):
Spoken like a true premature rocksoft guy. You know, damn
do you know? I don't know. I just I guess
I've been with you long enough.
Speaker 1 (39:13):
I just like I look at it like you've got
an hour.
Speaker 3 (39:16):
You Some people like to just let it linger and
let it let it be what it's going to be.
That's ridiculous because then something good could happen.
Speaker 5 (39:24):
Do you have to cut off time though?
Speaker 3 (39:27):
Uh? Fourth of July?
Speaker 5 (39:30):
Note when it gets you just do you so midnight
because then it's fifth of July.
Speaker 3 (39:34):
Like, that's correct.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
When cities do like their fireworks shows, they're fifteen to
twenty minutes. It's usually about what it is that's perfect.
Anything beyond that past ten o'clock. What are we doing here?
Speaker 3 (39:48):
Ark fire? Nobody said that it had to be for
like two three hours of just NonStop fireworks. We're just
