tank is. Still, it's a tank that can go in water.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Is he a powerful scot like eighty knots on the
water and like, is he a cruise ship? No, he's
not a cruise Okay, they could use a cruise ship,
though they can use two cruise ships in that organization.
Right now, welcome to Dudes on Dudes. I'm Julian Edelman

And the NFL season is in full swing, full swing,
flying by. Well, what are we talking about? In this episode?
Woll one of the best wide receivers in the game.
And then will the Ravens make the playoffs?
Speaker 2 (00:47):
We'll see what the Crystal Balls have to say, and
then we answer questions from Discord and the Chillest Dude
of the Week presented by cors Like Let's come. Dudes
on Dudes is a production of iHeartRadio Jules.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
What's going on? Bro? What's going on? Been a while
since we've done an official dude segment in person. Should
we do one? Now? We got to. I think we
should step into it. It's been it's been a little
naked without the segment. I like our our our little
vamps on weekly updates and stuff. But I feel like
we need to feel like we need a dude we do,
(01:27):
we really do so. I think we should set the
cock the cock. I think we should set the.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Clock, a clock, Julia and that cock. I think we
need to set the clock.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Do we have the AI? Yes we do. Here we go.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Oh, it's the AI synopsis.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Oh, we're back, We're back. This is when you know
we're back in the night house.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
We got the AI synopsis going, Robbie g reading it off.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Oh this is a short one too. I like that
some of the AI synopsis.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
We're getting a little bit mean long, too many as
too many accolades.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
But here we go. We gotta know what a I got.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
We take out a short, short one right here. That's
just gonna explain this guy just like that all right.
Standing at six foot two hundred and one pounds, he
is a wide receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals. He won
the twenty twenty one NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year
after a record breaking debut season. He is a two
time Pro bowler and helped lead LSU to a national
(02:25):
championship in twenty nineteen. Known for speed and physicality, he
continues to be one of the NFL's most dominant young receivers.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Let's get on, Mr Chase. You know, Chase, what's the
first thing that you think of when you hear Jamar Chase? Jules.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
I'll let me go first, Rob, what's the first thing
you think of when you hear Jami? What do you
think the best wide receiver in the NFL?
Speaker 1 (02:52):
It's hard to argue, hard to argue. You can't even argue.
It is hard to argue. I mean, we just watched
those Week five games. Would you say earlier.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
I said the Cincinnati Bengals should have lost to the
Detroit Lions thirty five or whatever, thirty eight to zero.
But the Cincinnati Bengals have Jamar Chase, so therefore they
lost thirty eight to seventeen. Because Jamar Chase is that
dominant of a player, and he is a seventeen point
(03:22):
swing type of player in these NFL games.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
That's how good he is. Now, I agree it was
garbage time. It wasn't really garbage time. You see those routes, No,
the routes were elite, elite, elite. Yeah, and he brought
him together and everyone was guarding Jamar and it was
crazy impressive, but it was garbage time.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
It was garbage time. But he's still a seventeen point
swing in my eyes, he's he's done it many times
in games. I mean some games bat seven point swinging.
Some games he's a seventeen point swing. And I do
kind of feel bad for him too, because without Joe Burrow,
I mean, this Bengals team has been just a complete mass.
They finally got off to a hot start two and
aw now they're two and three. I mean, maybe in
(04:06):
the future they should just go all into from the
very beginning, because bad things happen when they go to
and I'll get the hot starck.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
It's bad. It's sad because they really were trying to
focus on starting the year fast and then then you know,
Joe Burrow breaks his toe and it still show, you know,
watching Jamar play, he's still he's still working hard. He's
(04:33):
still the guy on the field when I think of him. Man,
when I first started watching him, He reminded me of
a big Steve Smith. Remember Steve Smith, like he made
the Islan. He had great routes, he could rouch you up, wrestle,
he could, he could, he could tough do well in
fifty to fifty balls and he was only like five
(04:54):
nine five eight. I think Jamar is like a big
version of Steve Smith, with more speed maybe. And Steve
could walk guys down like he was a fast dude. Yes,
like Jamar is. He's six foot, he's two ten. He's
elite at running routes. His explosion in and out of
cuts is spectacular. You never see him get ran from behind.
(05:16):
He can. He can catch a curl route and then
outrun the pursuit that's chasing him from behind, and then
cut on a guy that's coming from another angle. His
yards after catcher are crazy. He can get fifty to
fifty balls. I remember early on in his preseason of
his rookie year, people were, you know, talking about his hands,
(05:38):
and this guy has elite hands. He's just been everything
you expected him to be being. You know, what is
he the third fourth overall draft pick.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I think he was a fifth over y raw. I
mean for his size, he's so smooth. I mean, he's
one of the most powerful wide receivers to ever play
the game. He's explosive, Like you said, well built lower body.
I would say that helps out well. I mean, however
he's training. I mean, just keep that going because it's
working big time. He's got some blistering vertical acceleration and
(06:10):
I believe that's what gets him open on the deep
balls because of the acceleration. DB's aren't ready for that.
I kind of had that in my game. It kind
of threw linebackers and DB's off. When you know, when
I planted my foot and went to the flag, I
had that little acceleration, extra burst and they weren't expecting
that at the moment. It's like another gear in mid route.
(06:32):
He has that as well. His hands are phenomenal and
he's strong.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
Hands, strong, strong hand catches.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Big playability is up there obviously. I mean he makes
some of the biggest plays in the NFL. He's great
in scramble situations.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
On the same page always so like he's a complete
wide receiver all across the board.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
I mean one area I think he needs a work
and maybe blocking, But like when you're that good, you
don't need a block, right.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
I think their whole their whole offense needs to learn
how to block for the run game in the past game.
But how crazy is it that this LSU group of
receivers Jamar Chase, Justin Jefferson, who else the elk neighbors,
Odell Beckham. I mean, is LSU receiver you.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
LSU was wide receiver you from about two thousand, like
sixteen to twenty twenty two. But now I'm giving my
crown to Ohio for the last couple of years.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
And like Amica a Buka, Amika a Buka, Amica a Buka.
First off, I want to apologize for getting your name Ron.
That was genuine the other day. It was very genuine,
but everyone knew who I was talking about. You can't
not know him. He's too damn good now. It was
just a little apology, that's all, Jules.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
I'm sorry, but he is that good now and he's
taking Ohio State to a whole other level in the
one gym, the wide receiver for you because of what
he's doing. But it was LSU LSU for the couple
of years, you know, beginning of twenty twenties, and now
it's Ohio State, you know, university.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
How cool would have been to play with your college
quarterback that fed you in the pros? I mean, like
when the college quarterbacks like really goddamn the most. That's
the most ideal situation, that is it.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
And that's why these two are are such great, you
know players, and their chemistry is so good together because
they've been doing it since their college days. But playing
with Jamar Chase, you really don't even nique chemistry with
him sometimes because he routes up to his defenders so much.
He's opened by five six yards sometimes, especially on the
deep ball, and if you just have an army, you
can just chuck it down the field while there's no
(08:46):
chemistry needed. You just throw the ball up and Jamar
Chase is getting it.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
I bet you he would have been a good rebounder.
And that's wrong, you know what I mean? Yeah, I
feel like he can box out guys. I mean he's covered,
he still makes the play, Yeah he does. He's still
like he's he's a and that's a good rebounder. There's
guys all all around you still going up for the
rest as well, But you're the one who comes down
with the ball. I bet you he was. That's what
(09:10):
he's doing. I mean, he won the Triple Crown last
year and didn't even go to the playoffs, which is
crazy to me. That's elite. He's got the best rookie
season to date when he was playing for a receiver
until Puca just broke that. Do you think he gets
twelve hundred yards?
Speaker 2 (09:28):
He's at least gonna get a thousand yards, that's not
even a question. But twelve hundred yards, yes, that's very doable.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
I think he still gets it. Yeah, because he's gonna
he's gonna knock off a two hundred yard game. He
knocked off like he's knocked off some crazy games league.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
He'll at least knock off to two hundred yard games
this year.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
I mean, this dude's an absolute beast.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
I mean, Jamar Chase was just so elite in college
as well, and on the big stage whenever the lights
are on, it just didn't matter. I mean, look at
his stats national Title game versus Clemson. He had nine
receptions two hundred and twenty one yard. I mean, how
many two hundred plus yards games has this guy had
in his career? And we're talking not just in the pros,
but college as well. He had two touchdowns in that game.
(10:09):
He's the first LSU player with three two hundred plus
yard games in a season. He's just been a stud,
you know, since he stepped on that football feel in
his college days. I mean, probably unbelievable in high school
as well, obviously, but we're talking when you're going versus
elite competition. He's been an absolute animal.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
He also switches his cleats up at halftime every game. Superstition, superstition.
You see that he had the Dion looking ones. Those
those old those are used to look like the old
d On's, like those U zebra stripes up top with
the orange. But that's got to be creat Do you
have any stuperstitions at halftime?
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Oh well, Jamar Chase he was doing every game and
started sophomore year at LSU because his socks would get
wet and I don't like that makes so much sense
man and LSU, what is it? Ninety five degrees the
human humans popping And every.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Single time when we were playing in training camp Tampa's
in Tampa as well, your socks would get so wet
and drench it would feel like you're running with one
hundred pound weights on your feet and it's the worst situation.
It's so uncomfortable and you feel like you're like a
shell of who you can possibly be out on the
football field. Blisters, yes, blisters as well. And honestly, I
(11:22):
remember doing that every once in a while when we
used to have double days. You change your shoe and
cleaton have dry in the second game or the second half,
Like it is a changer. It does make it feel
like you can cut better because you get in that
wet sock, you slide on the cleat and then it
just chafes your toe. You get a big bunion. It's
the worst, the worst. All right, Well, what kind of
(11:44):
dude is Jamaar Chase Man? Let's get into it. Let's
get into it. I mean, he could hit all these
dudes I'm and he seems like a cool dude, you
know what I mean. Like he's just a calm, cool
dude in the locker room. He seems like a great
locker room dude for the biggest star he is in
the locker room. But I think it's one thing. I
think so too. I Mean, he's a for sure, he's
(12:06):
a dog, for sure. But on three I think he's
a one two three freak for I.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
Mean just the explosiveness he brings to the table at
his size, at the wide receiver position, you got to
have freakish abilities.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
To be able to do what he's doing. He's like
an aqua tank that goes like seventy miles an hour.
Like I've seen. I get in these wormholes of all
these these new weaponries and stuff, and there's like these
tanks that go like hella fast and then go in
the water, and I think they may even be able
to hover.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
That's what he is. He's like an aqua tank. He is, well,
aqua tank, aqua tank.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Well that was fun to get into. I don't know
what an aqua tank is. Still, it's a tank that
can go in water. But also this one goes fast.
It's just you could do a lot. Is that a submarine?
It's like the ductboat or a speedboat? Is he a speedboat?
Is he a powerful boat? With speedboat? It goes like
eighty he can go like eighty knots on the water.
(13:08):
And like, is he a cruise ship? No, he's not
a cruse Okay, he's not a cruise all right, all right,
they could use a cruise ship, though, I sure can.
They can use two cruise ships for that organization. Right now,
let's go crystal ball segment.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Robbie, you started all right, Well, with so much football
I have to play, there is so much uncertainty for
so many players and teams around the league.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
That's where our crystal balls come in. Handy crystal balls.
It's time for another edition of crystal balls. Let's get
into it, Chris, let's do it. Yes, I remember everyone,
I call it crystal balls because Greg said, let me
looking at my crystal balls. Well, what's the real name.
(13:56):
It's crystal ball. Yeah, it's a crystal ball.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
But the crystal balls yeah yeah, because there's two of us.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Yeah, it's honestly, if.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
It was just me doing this segments, let me get
my crystal ball out. But well you hear Jos, it's
crystal balls plural. I just needed the explanation. That's all.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Well, let's get into it. Russell Wilson will get his
job back as QB one in New York before the
season is over. Does the crystal balls say yes? Does
the crystal balls say no?
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Okay, before we get into it. I feel like Russell
Wilson's job was to be the quarterback of the New
York Giants, no matter what situation he was in. It
was to be a leader. If he was going to
be the number two quarterback. When he signed with the Giants,
it wasn't like he signed to be guaranteed as the
number one quarterback, but he had to work himself and
(14:52):
earn the job, which he did at the beginning and
training camp. But if that wasn't going to be the case,
I feel like his job all so was going to be, Hey,
if you're the number two, hey lead as a veteran.
Show this young buck, you know the ways, show him
how it's done. Lead by example. So, Russell Wilson, where
is this crystal ball? Where is it? The crystal ball says,
(15:15):
no matter what situation he's in, he has a job
and he has to earn it. So if he's the
first quarterback or the second quarterback, he has to be
a leader, no matter what the situation is.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
So he's got QB one mentality, but he could be
QB two on the field. Well, my crystal ball says, yes,
he probably will be the QB one at one. My
crystal ball was all over the place. Did my crystal
ball make any sense to Did you understand what I
was trying to say. I did. He's got to be
QB one as a mindset and as a professional show
QB two, who's really QB one, how to be a
(15:49):
professional because QB one, who's really QB two is still young? Yes, exactly, Yeah,
at least you understood. I understood it. I think yes,
because I think QB one Jackson Dart right now, he's
he's exciting, he's electric, but he he's gonna get hurt.
I feel like he's gonna get banged up.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Yeah, the crystal ball, says Russell, Wilson will be in again.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
He'll be like I just think Jackson Dart, he's he's
he's very fun, exciting, but like it's.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Gonna be a year for the Giants where they're just
going to be trying all different type of experiments.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
I just you can't play as hard as Jackson Dart
does when you're in the NFL. I mean, when you
can't get hit when you're that young, you can get
away with it for a couple or two or three
or four. It's just it's it's hard. Let's get into
the next one. All right, more than three head coaches
(16:48):
will be fired by Thanksgiving this year. What is your
crystal balls balls?
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Uh, well, my crystal bass has no I think maybe
one coach will be fired. What owners are now doing
because there's really no benefit of firing your coach mid
season because you still got to go through the whole
process of finding the coach after the season. So just
dismantling your organization like that, you know, halfway through a season,
(17:17):
really doesn't make sense. And you see these owners giving
these guys head coaches more time as well, because firing
them just just is going to keep that organization where
exactly they are. I never seen an organization fire a
guy really and then the interim coach takes them to
the playoffs and then it's it's happened before. But the
(17:38):
percentage is low. And we're talking before Thanksgiving. I mean,
there's a lot of football left to be played after Thanksgiving.
There's a couple of coaches in mind that I feel
like are going to get fired. But I I don't
think it's I'm not gonna say okay too early.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
I just don't even want to bring it up.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
I think it's unfair, But uh, I think it just
before Thanksgiving not gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
I think it's gonna be close. Really maybe one guy,
I don't two guys. That's close. Actually, that's really close.
Because all we need here is crystal balls asking about
thre three is three. The spread. Three is the spread,
so it has to be four. You can push it three,
you can push it three. I might have to push
(18:22):
I don't know, man, it could get pretty ugly here
for a few teams. And I won't say no names either.
Let's get on to the next one. Chador Sanders will
get a start for the Browns before Christmas.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
My crystal ball says, yes, Shador Sanders will get a
start for the Browns, because why wouldn't he get a
start for the Browns. Cleveland Browns aren't gonna be the
my crystal ball says, the Cleveland Browns aren't gonna be
in playoff contention. That's also what my crystal ball say.
So if they're not in playoff contention, why not put
Shador Sanders in at least for a game or two
(18:56):
to see what he has to see if he could
possibly be the future of the Browns, or possibly trade
them eventually and.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Get some value for him. Mike crystal Ball says it's
up to Gabriel because I thought he looked decent last
week in London. I mean, he played a solid football game.
He took care of the football. Everyone thinks he's decisive
with the football. Whenever you hear any kind of guy
talk about him, they'd say he's a serious guy that
knows what to do, gets the ball out quick. If
(19:26):
I think the Browns in a kind of beat up
division and AFC North Division, that's kind of struggling right now.
I don't think they're quite out of it yet. They
always just hang around. Stefanski knows how to just hang around.
Let's figure some things out, have a really good defense,
(19:46):
maybe get Dylan Gabriel to maybe, you know, get things
going in the right direction. I don't know. I think
it all depends on how Gabriel plays. That's what Christian
Ball says, even though that's probably like the scapegup all
right next one. So is that a yes or no?
Speaker 2 (20:04):
Like like you shake up the crystal ball and it
can only pop up yes, and it can only pop up.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Now before Christmas. No. I think Gabriel, I think he's
gonna do all right.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
I think he did pretty solid, you know, with all
that pressure on him versus the Minnesota Vikings defense Brian
Florish type of you know defense where he's scheming and
mixing things up. He did very good for that first
first start of his you know, being on Cleveland.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
So I do believe.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Yeah, if Gabriel stays healthy and he and he and
he shows potential and he shows improvement every week, then
you cannot pull him, you can.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
You can't pull him. Well depend they keep on losing games. Yeah, yeah,
I bet they're gonna win a couple. We'll be right
back after this quick break.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
All right, let's go, let's go get Let's get onto
the next The Baltimore Ravens will miss the playoffs in
two thousand twenty five.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Whoa, my crystal ball says last year they were two
and two through the first four. But what are they
right now? One and four one? Yeah, that's way worse
than two and two. And Lamar's got a hamstring? Ham
string and bad grade one? Is it a grade two?
(21:19):
Every guy that I know on the team is on
the injury report, literally, Humphrey, Hamilton, Ricard, just everyone that
you know on the Baltimore Ravens. Christ Yeah, I don't
think they're making the playoffs. My ball says no, they're
not making the playoffs this year. This is bad, bro.
It's they can't stop anyone right now. They got bamboozled
(21:41):
by Houston, who really hasn't been able to get their
offensive clicking. It was good to see Stroud and Houston
get clicking on offense finally, but that's not good for
the Ravens, and I don't see it getting any better.
Mike Chris the ball says no as well.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
It's like everything was clicking for them, plenty of games,
you know, on the offensive side of the ball, solid
defense last year, and now just everything's collapsing. The missing
I know they're missing a lot of guys, but just
to collapse that much, it's kind of be hard to
climb out of this hole that they're in now one
(22:23):
and four. The offense isn't clicking, the run game isn't
there as well. I mean, I feel like they really
don't know how to use Derrick Henry this year. He
went for what he went for two thousand yards last year, right,
two thousand yards, and now it's like, let's not handle
them the ball.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Yeah, he's also you know, he's had some fumble problems.
He's fumbled a few times, he has. But it's just
it's been a tough year. This is this has been
nothing's been going their way.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
They can't stop going. They can't stop anyone right now.
I'm just gonna go no, No, they're they're in too
big of a hole now.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
And they really haven't played any division games. And those
that division, they know, they know each other. Tough division. Hey,
little Dylan Gabriel might look all right against him, but Multimore, right,
they beat they beat Cleveland, don't know, but they're gonna
play again, play. But they still got to play the
Steelers twice. He still got to play Dylan Gabriel once.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
Yeah, and they got to play the Bengals that have
Jamar Chase.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
How are they gonna stop Jamar Chase. He's gonna he's gonna.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
Be a thirty point swing differential type player in that game.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
I got faith that they're going to be competitive. I mean,
the Ravens, they're going to figure some things out. But
it may be too late. Man, it's one in four
is a lot. That's, like you said, though they haven't
played that much in the division.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
All right, next one, all right, Stefan Diggs will finish
the season as the Patriots receptions leader. My Crystal ball
Well says, well, let's check out his stats right now.
Is he leading the Patriots right now on receptions?
Speaker 1 (23:49):
He is?
Speaker 2 (23:50):
He is, and he's just getting better. He's coming off
the ACL and you can tell every week that he's improving.
His stats are going up. His big play making abilities
are getting better every we just hasn't had a touchdown yet.
Once he gets in the end zone once, I'm sure
it's gonna you know, he's gonna get even more comfortable.
And Drake Made's gonna keep finding him in the red zone.
But I say not, I say my Crystal Balls says yes.
(24:14):
I mean he's already leading them in with.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
What's the whole team right because I think Hunter Henry
might be a guy that's steal.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Yeah, Hunter Henry is very very solid player, very reliable
tight end, very consistent here. But Stefan Diggs will be
the Patriots leader in receptions by Hi. It's not even close, Julian,
it's not even close. He's twelve more than the next guy.
And the next guy is Hunter Henry. Who's a tight end.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
I know, but you know, it's a long season.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
It is a long season. But he's getting better, he's
getting improvement. I think he does a weekly basis. No,
it's not what you think, is what your crystal ball says.
My crystal boss is yes, so it's technically you're not
even wrong. You just blame it on the crystal ball.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
Stupid crystal ball.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Like it's kind of like Rocky Gronkstone. Did you see
Rocky Gronkstone playing that u of a basketball game?
Speaker 1 (25:09):
I mean last week in the Red and Blue game,
this guy just kicked.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Out Rocky Gronkstone got kicked out, you know, for a
following too hard and then spiking the basketball. But he
also had three attempts at the three point line, and
he airballed the first one and then he bricked the
next two. But that was Rocky Gronkstone. I thought Rocky
Gronkstone was gonna Rocky dunk. Yeah he did, he won
the dunk. Oh no, actually that wasn't Rocky Gronkstone, his
(25:33):
lookalike that everyone thinks who Rocky Gronkstone is, which was me.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
Everyone thinks I was Rocky Gronkston. I wasn't.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
I won an airball three point shot and I want
to throw near. I would never airball a three pointer.
But Rocky Gronkson was But everyone who Everyone thinks it
was me, But I was there and I won the
dunk contest.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
I jumped over a range over the little one. Yeah,
the little range over saw it like the kid range
drover freaking wrong.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Yeah, that was sick. It was really fun. It was cool.
Tommy Lloyd's great. He's there. He's their head coach. He's
been there for a couple of years. He has that
program in the top ten every single year. Every year,
they just can't. They just can't win that big game.
Yet in the sweet success you get it in the tournament,
they will. I mean it's not Rocky.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
Rocky Gronkstone's going to get him some recruits.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Yeah, Rocky Gronkstone came out of the transfer portal. He
was at the Buffalo State Penetary. Uh entry, Yeah, penitentiary.
Uh he's not that smart, by the way, he was
in jail for a while. But uh, he's he's a
really good player. He has a lot of heart, at
a lot of soul, a lot of passion.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Uh is he even an IL deal? He's got one one.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
It's to a gas station. You know he's got he
gets one hundred bucks in free gas a month.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
That's tight. Yeah, what's he got to do for it? Uh?
The how would you know? Anyways, I don't know. You
don't know what he has thought. I just talked to
him real quick.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
He's like, Yo, my ANIL deal is one hundred bucks
and free gas man at the gas station Circle K
and Tucson, Arizona. I didn't ask him what he had
to do for it, but he's like, yeah, he gets
a hundred bucks and free gas. And I think he
has a motorized bike that he puts the gas in.
That's not a car. I saw him pull up. Motorized bike.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
What kind of bike? Just like a Harley?
Speaker 2 (27:33):
No, No, No, like a like a bicycle that has
an engine on him.

So what's the chillis? Dude of the week, I think
(29:03):
we should answer some questions from Discord for the chillis
due to the week this week, this is new, this
is new, let's do with discords new, Let's do it.
Here's the link in our bio on Instagram. An X
for the link and join us in the Discord. Question
number one, what's Rob and Jules perfect Meal? From KDP
(29:27):
sixty four ninety four.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
All right, KDB KDP sixty four ninety four.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Great numbers you got in there. They're just a little off.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Oh, six four nine, that's why it's six four nine
four six four nine four. Saw the sixty nine is
for you and the other six in the sixty nine
is back for you. I see what that person, that's
a different number. That is a good one right there.
That's creative KDP six four nine four. But my perfect
meal to me, it was my chicken sou fe. But
(30:01):
now it has been taken over by another meal by
my mom. I love when she cooks on the grill.
And there's this sauce that's only in Buffalo. It's called
Chovetta's sauce and it's like a vinegourette sauce and it
just has a couple of spices in it as well,
very healthy for you, and you put it on chicken
and then it's called Chovetta's chicken. So my mom has
(30:21):
the Chavetta sauce at her house. And also she gets
her unbelievable steaks that she gets from Costco. She gets
these ribbies and these tomahawks and stuff from Costco.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
Unbelievable steaks. They're very you know, Kirkland brand very under rings.
It's not actually underrated.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
If you know about Kirkland brands, it's the best one
of the branders out there, it really is. And she
cooks on the grill and then she has twice baked
potatoes and then she also grills the asparagus. And that's
the perfect meal in my eyes, with a side of
blue cheese from Buffalo to dip your Chavetta's chicken and
(31:00):
your steak into.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
Wow, that's a good meal. I was gonna say French dip,
but that that was really good. I like a good
friend dip, always a good friend tip. Let's get on
to another one favorite dunking on the bills moment for you,
Rob from Pigeon Man all right.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
My favorite dunking on the bill's moment. I would say.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
I have like a couple favorite of Robs dunking on
all right. I remember when he was younger, you just
scored touchdowns anytime we play there my favorite? Yes, but
what was my I think you did it like you
did it like a a running jump spike there.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Yes, yes, yeah, where you like hot double hopping like
I get a little momentum with a skipping and then
I hop and then I spike it. And that's how
you get the most power behind the gronk spike. You
gotta get that momentum built up. And that's what I
was doing in Buffalo because I was playing in my
hometown and I was excited. I wanted to ground spike
that could possibly do. But my favorite dunking on the
(31:57):
Bills moment. Man, Like, there's so many great moments that
we had going against the Bills. It wasn't like any time,
we like never really knocked him out of the playoffs
or anything. They just were never you know, a team
to be, you know, almost making the playoffs, so that
we never knocked him out knocking out They weren't like
they are now. So like I would say my one
(32:21):
handed touchdown catch versus one that was a sick one.
That was a sick one. It was in the corner
of the end zone at Gillette Stadium. I was one
on one with their all pro safety. Who was it
at the time, Poyer, No, not Poyer, the other one, Hi, Yeah,
one of Michael High one of the best cover safeties
all Pro at the time. He was covering me. But
(32:42):
I'm uncoverable because of just my size. I'm not saying
because of how great I am. I'm saying because I
can use my size to my advantage. And then I
have the athleticism at my size to be able to
move around so and get the ball over a smaller defender.
So Tom placed it where only I could make the
playoff my hand out, turned around a little bit, grabbed
it one hand, cut my two feet and bounced tippy
(33:04):
toe into the end zone and made it one unbelievable
one hand catch at Gillette Stadium.
Speaker 1 (33:10):
That was a good one. It was like an alley
oop basically. That was my alley oop dunk on the
Buffalo Bills. I had a couple two touchdown games against
the Bills on the road there. Thirteen one was kind
of cool. It was like my little breakout, a little
two piece. That was probably one of my favorite movies. Also,
the one when we clinched before you got there in
(33:31):
two thousand and nine or something, or were you there
in twenty ten when we clinched and we got snowed in? Yes?
Oh no, I was there. That was twenty ten. That
was two thousand and.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
Eleven, ten, yeah, two thousand times my rookie year. Yes,
And we got snow right storm the game, A snowstorm
came so we couldn't fly barbecue. Yes, you guys went
there in Rochester. I actually stayed back and I caught
a ride up in the morning to meet you guys
to fly out, because obviously my family's there in Buffalo,
so I stayed back with my family, and I actually
missed that trip. And I heard so much about that
(34:03):
trip when you just went to the dinosaur Barbecue.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
But that was a good game. That was. Let's get
into another one. We got a couple more here all,
here we go.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
If both of you are gamers, what games are you
currently playing? From m J see, I'm not really a
gamer right now, but when I was in college, it
was Halo. Halo was just to me one of the
best games to ever, you know, come about my life.
Oh another one as well, because I gamed a little
bit going you know, that was college life was Halo.
(34:33):
Going into the NFL, I played Zombies. Yeah, Zombie Zombies
was on call of duty, and I used to run
home right after team meetings, right after you know that
you practice ends at like two thirty and then you
go in the meetings at three thirty to four thirty
to watch film and then we would be cut from
the stadium at four thirty. I literally used to run
home so I can get on the couch with Nasty
(34:55):
Nate Doug, you know, Nasty NAEs, and we would put
on Zombies and we would play Zombies from four thirty
five the moment I got home because I hustled home here,
don't tell.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
Hopefully Josh McDaniels isn't listening right now.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
I would run out of our meetings, play zombies from
four to thirty five to like literally ten thirty at night,
and then go to bed.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
And then do it again the next day. Yeah, that's
that's the NFL life. Yeah, I got to like level
thirty eight. That's a I wasn't a Zombies guy. I play.
I liked the war zones and stuff, and I was
in the Fortnite for a little. Right now, it's just
FC twenty six, Football Club twenty six, the new FIFA.
That's the only one I'm playing. That's the only one
(35:38):
I'm playing. How does taking a sick day in the
NFL work? From the kid with like five d's the kid,
it's this kid rid. This has to be a kid
rid because the rid always wanted a sick day.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
He just wanted to chill out hall, get some rest,
do his thing on the couch. I don't think I've
ever had a sick day. Yes, So how do sick
days work in the NFL? I mean you really truly
have to be sick in order to be sent on.
Speaker 1 (36:06):
Actually I got well, the COVID I got COVID.
Speaker 2 (36:08):
Yes, well, I got COVID was totally different. That's not
really a sick day. That's called COVID days. Like if
you had COVID, you were sent home for a week.
That was a whole different protocol sick days.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Like he told you in the trainer's room, like say here,
here's some fluids and you have to sit there by yourself.
Like that was like I just remember doing that once
when I was really sick. Yeah, and like they isolated.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
They would send you home if like you truly have
like the sweats, they would only send you home. Is
like they take your temperature and you truly just show
right on the spot that your temperature.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
You know, you're you're you have a fever, right, Yeah,
they'd send you home. They would send you home. Then
your hands down and then they'd have a trainer, come
check on you or something like that. You're they take
care of you.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
But only if you're like truly, truly, truly sick, Like
you can't just have like a little cold.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
They're never gonna send no sniffles. It's not just like
I'm going to go in, no running nosey, Like literally,
you gotta be dying, dying. Food poisoning. I got. I
had food poisoning. Once they sent me home, it was bad,
you know, I kind of had to like you had
to kind of prove it. So like I had like
food poisoning and I would like one in and I
(37:18):
was like, yo, Jim, look at the toilet. I puked.
I would show him. I'd be like, yo, I'm throwing
up while taking a diarrhea and I.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Feel like, watch you ship. I would say, come here,
come watch me, just to prove it. And he'd be like, oh,
I believe you.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
I believe I'm not.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
I'm like, no, come freaking watch me diarrhea and throw
up at the same time, Jim like I'm sick. Like
that's the only way you got sick days in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
That's the only way. Yeah. So that to answer your question,
that was it. Yeah, we got one more. I like
this question.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
This guy's asking me about my puzzling skills. Who I
like so, Rob, you recently on your Instagram story were
showing off an elaborate five hundred piece puzzle that you
had completed.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
Yes, I did, thank you very much.
Speaker 2 (38:01):
And by the way, I only showed off one of
the five hundred piece puzzles I completed. I actually completed
two five hundred piece of puzzles and that equals a
thousand pieces. WHOA, that's a lot of pieces, jewels, that's
a lot of piece, a lot of pieces.
Speaker 1 (38:15):
I can tell you that.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
Have you ever glued together a completed puzzle and then
framed it? I never glued together complete a puzzle, But
there are like these cases now, like it's like, what
is it like models?
Speaker 1 (38:28):
No? You three dimensional? No?
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Like you clear? It's like clear, it's like puzzle holders.
Oh you oh, puzzle piece holders. Yeah, and you frame
them so you don't put them together. You don't glue
it together. It was just a beach house. One of
the puzzles was and the other one I was an
ice cream stand. And I'm becoming so good at puzzles.
Back in the day, A five hundred piece puzzle like
(38:51):
this would have taken me about, you know, probably fifteen
to twenty hours to do. And now I'm knocking out
these puzzles, five hundred piece puzzles. I sat there, I
did it for five and a half hours, and I
woke up and I did it for another hour and
a half.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
So I knocked it out in a total of seven hours.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
So once you get on a stroll, Once you get
on a roll, I mean you just boom, you start
knocking it out.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
What are you thinking about when you're doing these puzzles?
Speaker 2 (39:13):
You're just thinking about finding the next piece and getting
it done and fitting them together. Because every piece you
fit together, you feel accomplished, you feel satisfied, and its rewarding.
So five hundred pieces you feel satisfied four hundred and
ninety nine times, not five hundred times. Why, Joel's because
(39:33):
the first piece isn't done. You can't. There's always gonna
be one piece that doesn't connect. Out of five hundred
the very beginning, four hundred ninety nine connections you get.
Speaker 1 (39:45):
Is not five hundred. No, there's five hundred pieces, but
you only get four hundred ninety nine matches. Like pieces together. Yeah,
I think so. He's a number of guy. What a
question from Rachel c on Discord. I want to you
know what, that's gonna be my new gift. Like whenever
I'm in like a new state, or like I travel,
(40:07):
I get lily like candy and like a snow globe,
and I'm gonna get drunk like a puzzle.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
I'm telling you this is why I do puzzles. Puzzles
put your brain chemistry back together as well, probably you
know it. Really start doing puzzles. Say you're partying, you're
traveling back home six hour flights that I do, and
you get home You're like, wow, I feel woozy.
Speaker 1 (40:24):
You know, I feel jet lag. I feel like I
can't even form a sentence. All that stuff. Well, what
do I do.
Speaker 2 (40:30):
I go to the puzzles, and the puzzles they make
me feel satisfied. And also if I'm bored, I go
to the puzzles. If I'm not feeling complacent, if I'm
not feeling present, I go to the puzzles. And within
five six hours of just going straight, within the first
thirty minutes, you know, it's kind of tough. It's like
working out the first five minutes is tough, and then kaboom,
you get into the groove.
Speaker 1 (40:51):
Well, same with puzzles.
Speaker 2 (40:52):
You're just sitting there, you're bored now, the first thirty
minutes you're not really feeling it. Then all of a sudden,
everything just starts turning and kicking in and you get
it and you sit there for five six hours straight.
You knock out the puzzle and you're done. You get
up and you're like, oh my gosh, it's eleven pm
at night, like, what happened?
Speaker 1 (41:07):
What happened to my hole?
Speaker 2 (41:08):
Until your night, you don't think about food, you don't
think about drinks, nothing. You just go and you're satisfied
and it makes you present. And that's why I do puzzles.
Speaker 1 (41:16):
We're making a Dude's on Dudes puzzle. It's gonna be
one thousand piece puzzle. It'll be coming to you guys soon.
We'll have a DOCU series of grunk doing the puzzle.

of the Week presented by cors Like Let's come. Dudes

Speaker 1 (01:04):
What's going on? Bro? What's going on? Been a while
since we've done an official dude segment in person. Should
we do one? Now? We got to. I think we
should step into it. It's been it's been a little
naked without the segment. I like our our our little
vamps on weekly updates and stuff. But I feel like
we need to feel like we need a dude we do,
(01:27):
we really do so. I think we should set the
cock the cock. I think we should set the.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Clock, a clock, Julia and that cock. I think we
need to set the clock.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Do we have the AI? Yes we do. Here we go.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Oh, it's the AI synopsis.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Oh, we're back, We're back. This is when you know
we're back in the night house.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
We got the AI synopsis going, Robbie g reading it off.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Oh this is a short one too. I like that
some of the AI synopsis.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
We're getting a little bit mean long, too many as
too many accolades.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
But here we go. We gotta know what a I got.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
We take out a short, short one right here. That's
just gonna explain this guy just like that all right.
Standing at six foot two hundred and one pounds, he
is a wide receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals. He won
the twenty twenty one NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year
after a record breaking debut season. He is a two
time Pro bowler and helped lead LSU to a national
(02:25):
championship in twenty nineteen. Known for speed and physicality, he
continues to be one of the NFL's most dominant young receivers.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Let's get on, Mr Chase. You know, Chase, what's the
first thing that you think of when you hear Jamar Chase? Jules.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
I'll let me go first, Rob, what's the first thing
you think of when you hear Jami? What do you
think the best wide receiver in the NFL?
Speaker 1 (02:52):
It's hard to argue, hard to argue. You can't even argue.
It is hard to argue. I mean, we just watched
those Week five games. Would you say earlier.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
I said the Cincinnati Bengals should have lost to the
Detroit Lions thirty five or whatever, thirty eight to zero.
But the Cincinnati Bengals have Jamar Chase, so therefore they
lost thirty eight to seventeen. Because Jamar Chase is that
dominant of a player, and he is a seventeen point
(03:22):
swing type of player in these NFL games.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
That's how good he is. Now, I agree it was
garbage time. It wasn't really garbage time. You see those routes, No,
the routes were elite, elite, elite. Yeah, and he brought
him together and everyone was guarding Jamar and it was
crazy impressive, but it was garbage time.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
It was garbage time. But he's still a seventeen point
swing in my eyes, he's he's done it many times
in games. I mean some games bat seven point swinging.
Some games he's a seventeen point swing. And I do
kind of feel bad for him too, because without Joe Burrow,
I mean, this Bengals team has been just a complete mass.
They finally got off to a hot start two and
aw now they're two and three. I mean, maybe in
(04:06):
the future they should just go all into from the
very beginning, because bad things happen when they go to
and I'll get the hot starck.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
It's bad. It's sad because they really were trying to
focus on starting the year fast and then then you know,
Joe Burrow breaks his toe and it still show, you know,
watching Jamar play, he's still he's still working hard. He's
(04:33):
still the guy on the field when I think of him. Man,
when I first started watching him, He reminded me of
a big Steve Smith. Remember Steve Smith, like he made
the Islan. He had great routes, he could rouch you up, wrestle,
he could, he could, he could tough do well in
fifty to fifty balls and he was only like five
(04:54):
nine five eight. I think Jamar is like a big
version of Steve Smith, with more speed maybe. And Steve
could walk guys down like he was a fast dude. Yes,
like Jamar is. He's six foot, he's two ten. He's
elite at running routes. His explosion in and out of
cuts is spectacular. You never see him get ran from behind.
(05:16):
He can. He can catch a curl route and then
outrun the pursuit that's chasing him from behind, and then
cut on a guy that's coming from another angle. His
yards after catcher are crazy. He can get fifty to
fifty balls. I remember early on in his preseason of
his rookie year, people were, you know, talking about his hands,
(05:38):
and this guy has elite hands. He's just been everything
you expected him to be being. You know, what is
he the third fourth overall draft pick.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I think he was a fifth over y raw. I
mean for his size, he's so smooth. I mean, he's
one of the most powerful wide receivers to ever play
the game. He's explosive, Like you said, well built lower body.
I would say that helps out well. I mean, however
he's training. I mean, just keep that going because it's
working big time. He's got some blistering vertical acceleration and
(06:10):
I believe that's what gets him open on the deep
balls because of the acceleration. DB's aren't ready for that.
I kind of had that in my game. It kind
of threw linebackers and DB's off. When you know, when
I planted my foot and went to the flag, I
had that little acceleration, extra burst and they weren't expecting
that at the moment. It's like another gear in mid route.
(06:32):
He has that as well. His hands are phenomenal and
he's strong.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
Hands, strong, strong hand catches.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Big playability is up there obviously. I mean he makes
some of the biggest plays in the NFL. He's great
in scramble situations.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
On the same page always so like he's a complete
wide receiver all across the board.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
I mean one area I think he needs a work
and maybe blocking, But like when you're that good, you
don't need a block, right.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
I think their whole their whole offense needs to learn
how to block for the run game in the past game.
But how crazy is it that this LSU group of
receivers Jamar Chase, Justin Jefferson, who else the elk neighbors,
Odell Beckham. I mean, is LSU receiver you.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
LSU was wide receiver you from about two thousand, like
sixteen to twenty twenty two. But now I'm giving my
crown to Ohio for the last couple of years.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
And like Amica a Buka, Amika a Buka, Amica a Buka.
First off, I want to apologize for getting your name Ron.
That was genuine the other day. It was very genuine,
but everyone knew who I was talking about. You can't
not know him. He's too damn good now. It was
just a little apology, that's all, Jules.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
I'm sorry, but he is that good now and he's
taking Ohio State to a whole other level in the
one gym, the wide receiver for you because of what
he's doing. But it was LSU LSU for the couple
of years, you know, beginning of twenty twenties, and now
it's Ohio State, you know, university.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
How cool would have been to play with your college
quarterback that fed you in the pros? I mean, like
when the college quarterbacks like really goddamn the most. That's
the most ideal situation, that is it.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
And that's why these two are are such great, you
know players, and their chemistry is so good together because
they've been doing it since their college days. But playing
with Jamar Chase, you really don't even nique chemistry with
him sometimes because he routes up to his defenders so much.
He's opened by five six yards sometimes, especially on the
deep ball, and if you just have an army, you
can just chuck it down the field while there's no
(08:46):
chemistry needed. You just throw the ball up and Jamar
Chase is getting it.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
I bet you he would have been a good rebounder.
And that's wrong, you know what I mean? Yeah, I
feel like he can box out guys. I mean he's covered,
he still makes the play, Yeah he does. He's still
like he's he's a and that's a good rebounder. There's
guys all all around you still going up for the
rest as well, But you're the one who comes down
with the ball. I bet you he was. That's what
(09:10):
he's doing. I mean, he won the Triple Crown last
year and didn't even go to the playoffs, which is
crazy to me. That's elite. He's got the best rookie
season to date when he was playing for a receiver
until Puca just broke that. Do you think he gets
twelve hundred yards?
Speaker 2 (09:28):
He's at least gonna get a thousand yards, that's not
even a question. But twelve hundred yards, yes, that's very doable.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
I think he still gets it. Yeah, because he's gonna
he's gonna knock off a two hundred yard game. He
knocked off like he's knocked off some crazy games league.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
He'll at least knock off to two hundred yard games
this year.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
I mean, this dude's an absolute beast.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
I mean, Jamar Chase was just so elite in college
as well, and on the big stage whenever the lights
are on, it just didn't matter. I mean, look at
his stats national Title game versus Clemson. He had nine
receptions two hundred and twenty one yard. I mean, how
many two hundred plus yards games has this guy had
in his career? And we're talking not just in the pros,
but college as well. He had two touchdowns in that game.
(10:09):
He's the first LSU player with three two hundred plus
yard games in a season. He's just been a stud,
you know, since he stepped on that football feel in
his college days. I mean, probably unbelievable in high school
as well, obviously, but we're talking when you're going versus
elite competition. He's been an absolute animal.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
He also switches his cleats up at halftime every game. Superstition, superstition.
You see that he had the Dion looking ones. Those
those old those are used to look like the old
d On's, like those U zebra stripes up top with
the orange. But that's got to be creat Do you
have any stuperstitions at halftime?
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Oh well, Jamar Chase he was doing every game and
started sophomore year at LSU because his socks would get
wet and I don't like that makes so much sense
man and LSU, what is it? Ninety five degrees the
human humans popping And every.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Single time when we were playing in training camp Tampa's
in Tampa as well, your socks would get so wet
and drench it would feel like you're running with one
hundred pound weights on your feet and it's the worst situation.
It's so uncomfortable and you feel like you're like a
shell of who you can possibly be out on the
football field. Blisters, yes, blisters as well. And honestly, I
(11:22):
remember doing that every once in a while when we
used to have double days. You change your shoe and
cleaton have dry in the second game or the second half,
Like it is a changer. It does make it feel
like you can cut better because you get in that
wet sock, you slide on the cleat and then it
just chafes your toe. You get a big bunion. It's
the worst, the worst. All right, Well, what kind of
(11:44):
dude is Jamaar Chase Man? Let's get into it. Let's
get into it. I mean, he could hit all these
dudes I'm and he seems like a cool dude, you
know what I mean. Like he's just a calm, cool
dude in the locker room. He seems like a great
locker room dude for the biggest star he is in
the locker room. But I think it's one thing. I
think so too. I Mean, he's a for sure, he's
(12:06):
a dog, for sure. But on three I think he's
a one two three freak for I.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
Mean just the explosiveness he brings to the table at
his size, at the wide receiver position, you got to
have freakish abilities.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
To be able to do what he's doing. He's like
an aqua tank that goes like seventy miles an hour.
Like I've seen. I get in these wormholes of all
these these new weaponries and stuff, and there's like these
tanks that go like hella fast and then go in
the water, and I think they may even be able
to hover.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
That's what he is. He's like an aqua tank. He is, well,
aqua tank, aqua tank.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Well that was fun to get into. I don't know
what an aqua tank is. Still, it's a tank that
can go in water. But also this one goes fast.
It's just you could do a lot. Is that a submarine?
It's like the ductboat or a speedboat? Is he a speedboat?
Is he a powerful boat? With speedboat? It goes like
eighty he can go like eighty knots on the water.
(13:08):
And like, is he a cruise ship? No, he's not
a cruse Okay, he's not a cruise all right, all right,
they could use a cruise ship, though, I sure can.
They can use two cruise ships for that organization. Right now,
let's go crystal ball segment.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Robbie, you started all right, Well, with so much football
I have to play, there is so much uncertainty for
so many players and teams around the league.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
That's where our crystal balls come in. Handy crystal balls.
It's time for another edition of crystal balls. Let's get
into it, Chris, let's do it. Yes, I remember everyone,
I call it crystal balls because Greg said, let me
looking at my crystal balls. Well, what's the real name.
(13:56):
It's crystal ball. Yeah, it's a crystal ball.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
But the crystal balls yeah yeah, because there's two of us.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Yeah, it's honestly, if.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
It was just me doing this segments, let me get
my crystal ball out. But well you hear Jos, it's
crystal balls plural. I just needed the explanation. That's all.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Well, let's get into it. Russell Wilson will get his
job back as QB one in New York before the
season is over. Does the crystal balls say yes? Does
the crystal balls say no?
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Okay, before we get into it. I feel like Russell
Wilson's job was to be the quarterback of the New
York Giants, no matter what situation he was in. It
was to be a leader. If he was going to
be the number two quarterback. When he signed with the Giants,
it wasn't like he signed to be guaranteed as the
number one quarterback, but he had to work himself and
(14:52):
earn the job, which he did at the beginning and
training camp. But if that wasn't going to be the case,
I feel like his job all so was going to be, Hey,
if you're the number two, hey lead as a veteran.
Show this young buck, you know the ways, show him
how it's done. Lead by example. So, Russell Wilson, where
is this crystal ball? Where is it? The crystal ball says,
(15:15):
no matter what situation he's in, he has a job
and he has to earn it. So if he's the
first quarterback or the second quarterback, he has to be
a leader, no matter what the situation is.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
So he's got QB one mentality, but he could be
QB two on the field. Well, my crystal ball says, yes,
he probably will be the QB one at one. My
crystal ball was all over the place. Did my crystal
ball make any sense to Did you understand what I
was trying to say. I did. He's got to be
QB one as a mindset and as a professional show
QB two, who's really QB one, how to be a
(15:49):
professional because QB one, who's really QB two is still young? Yes, exactly, Yeah,
at least you understood. I understood it. I think yes,
because I think QB one Jackson Dart right now, he's
he's exciting, he's electric, but he he's gonna get hurt.
I feel like he's gonna get banged up.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Yeah, the crystal ball, says Russell, Wilson will be in again.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
He'll be like I just think Jackson Dart, he's he's
he's very fun, exciting, but like it's.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Gonna be a year for the Giants where they're just
going to be trying all different type of experiments.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
I just you can't play as hard as Jackson Dart
does when you're in the NFL. I mean, when you
can't get hit when you're that young, you can get
away with it for a couple or two or three
or four. It's just it's it's hard. Let's get into
the next one. All right, more than three head coaches
(16:48):
will be fired by Thanksgiving this year. What is your
crystal balls balls?
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Uh, well, my crystal bass has no I think maybe
one coach will be fired. What owners are now doing
because there's really no benefit of firing your coach mid
season because you still got to go through the whole
process of finding the coach after the season. So just
dismantling your organization like that, you know, halfway through a season,
(17:17):
really doesn't make sense. And you see these owners giving
these guys head coaches more time as well, because firing
them just just is going to keep that organization where
exactly they are. I never seen an organization fire a
guy really and then the interim coach takes them to
the playoffs and then it's it's happened before. But the
(17:38):
percentage is low. And we're talking before Thanksgiving. I mean,
there's a lot of football left to be played after Thanksgiving.
There's a couple of coaches in mind that I feel
like are going to get fired. But I I don't
think it's I'm not gonna say okay too early.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
I just don't even want to bring it up.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
I think it's unfair, But uh, I think it just
before Thanksgiving not gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
I think it's gonna be close. Really maybe one guy,
I don't two guys. That's close. Actually, that's really close.
Because all we need here is crystal balls asking about
thre three is three. The spread. Three is the spread,
so it has to be four. You can push it three,
you can push it three. I might have to push
(18:22):
I don't know, man, it could get pretty ugly here
for a few teams. And I won't say no names either.
Let's get on to the next one. Chador Sanders will
get a start for the Browns before Christmas.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
My crystal ball says, yes, Shador Sanders will get a
start for the Browns, because why wouldn't he get a
start for the Browns. Cleveland Browns aren't gonna be the
my crystal ball says, the Cleveland Browns aren't gonna be
in playoff contention. That's also what my crystal ball say.
So if they're not in playoff contention, why not put
Shador Sanders in at least for a game or two
(18:56):
to see what he has to see if he could
possibly be the future of the Browns, or possibly trade
them eventually and.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Get some value for him. Mike crystal Ball says it's
up to Gabriel because I thought he looked decent last
week in London. I mean, he played a solid football game.
He took care of the football. Everyone thinks he's decisive
with the football. Whenever you hear any kind of guy
talk about him, they'd say he's a serious guy that
knows what to do, gets the ball out quick. If
(19:26):
I think the Browns in a kind of beat up
division and AFC North Division, that's kind of struggling right now.
I don't think they're quite out of it yet. They
always just hang around. Stefanski knows how to just hang around.
Let's figure some things out, have a really good defense,
(19:46):
maybe get Dylan Gabriel to maybe, you know, get things
going in the right direction. I don't know. I think
it all depends on how Gabriel plays. That's what Christian
Ball says, even though that's probably like the scapegup all
right next one. So is that a yes or no?
Speaker 2 (20:04):
Like like you shake up the crystal ball and it
can only pop up yes, and it can only pop up.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Now before Christmas. No. I think Gabriel, I think he's
gonna do all right.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
I think he did pretty solid, you know, with all
that pressure on him versus the Minnesota Vikings defense Brian
Florish type of you know defense where he's scheming and
mixing things up. He did very good for that first
first start of his you know, being on Cleveland.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
So I do believe.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Yeah, if Gabriel stays healthy and he and he and
he shows potential and he shows improvement every week, then
you cannot pull him, you can.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
You can't pull him. Well depend they keep on losing games. Yeah, yeah,
I bet they're gonna win a couple. We'll be right
back after this quick break.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
All right, let's go, let's go get Let's get onto
the next The Baltimore Ravens will miss the playoffs in
two thousand twenty five.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Whoa, my crystal ball says last year they were two
and two through the first four. But what are they
right now? One and four one? Yeah, that's way worse
than two and two. And Lamar's got a hamstring? Ham
string and bad grade one? Is it a grade two?
(21:19):
Every guy that I know on the team is on
the injury report, literally, Humphrey, Hamilton, Ricard, just everyone that
you know on the Baltimore Ravens. Christ Yeah, I don't
think they're making the playoffs. My ball says no, they're
not making the playoffs this year. This is bad, bro.
It's they can't stop anyone right now. They got bamboozled
(21:41):
by Houston, who really hasn't been able to get their
offensive clicking. It was good to see Stroud and Houston
get clicking on offense finally, but that's not good for
the Ravens, and I don't see it getting any better.
Mike Chris the ball says no as well.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
It's like everything was clicking for them, plenty of games,
you know, on the offensive side of the ball, solid
defense last year, and now just everything's collapsing. The missing
I know they're missing a lot of guys, but just
to collapse that much, it's kind of be hard to
climb out of this hole that they're in now one
(22:23):
and four. The offense isn't clicking, the run game isn't
there as well. I mean, I feel like they really
don't know how to use Derrick Henry this year. He
went for what he went for two thousand yards last year, right,
two thousand yards, and now it's like, let's not handle
them the ball.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Yeah, he's also you know, he's had some fumble problems.
He's fumbled a few times, he has. But it's just
it's been a tough year. This is this has been
nothing's been going their way.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
They can't stop going. They can't stop anyone right now.
I'm just gonna go no, No, they're they're in too
big of a hole now.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
And they really haven't played any division games. And those
that division, they know, they know each other. Tough division. Hey,
little Dylan Gabriel might look all right against him, but Multimore, right,
they beat they beat Cleveland, don't know, but they're gonna
play again, play. But they still got to play the
Steelers twice. He still got to play Dylan Gabriel once.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
Yeah, and they got to play the Bengals that have
Jamar Chase.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
How are they gonna stop Jamar Chase. He's gonna he's gonna.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
Be a thirty point swing differential type player in that game.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
I got faith that they're going to be competitive. I mean,
the Ravens, they're going to figure some things out. But
it may be too late. Man, it's one in four
is a lot. That's, like you said, though they haven't
played that much in the division.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
All right, next one, all right, Stefan Diggs will finish
the season as the Patriots receptions leader. My Crystal ball
Well says, well, let's check out his stats right now.
Is he leading the Patriots right now on receptions?
Speaker 1 (23:49):
He is?
Speaker 2 (23:50):
He is, and he's just getting better. He's coming off
the ACL and you can tell every week that he's improving.
His stats are going up. His big play making abilities
are getting better every we just hasn't had a touchdown yet.
Once he gets in the end zone once, I'm sure
it's gonna you know, he's gonna get even more comfortable.
And Drake Made's gonna keep finding him in the red zone.
But I say not, I say my Crystal Balls says yes.
(24:14):
I mean he's already leading them in with.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
What's the whole team right because I think Hunter Henry
might be a guy that's steal.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Yeah, Hunter Henry is very very solid player, very reliable
tight end, very consistent here. But Stefan Diggs will be
the Patriots leader in receptions by Hi. It's not even close, Julian,
it's not even close. He's twelve more than the next guy.
And the next guy is Hunter Henry. Who's a tight end.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
I know, but you know, it's a long season.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
It is a long season. But he's getting better, he's
getting improvement. I think he does a weekly basis. No,
it's not what you think, is what your crystal ball says.
My crystal boss is yes, so it's technically you're not
even wrong. You just blame it on the crystal ball.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
Stupid crystal ball.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Like it's kind of like Rocky Gronkstone. Did you see
Rocky Gronkstone playing that u of a basketball game?
Speaker 1 (25:09):
I mean last week in the Red and Blue game,
this guy just kicked.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Out Rocky Gronkstone got kicked out, you know, for a
following too hard and then spiking the basketball. But he
also had three attempts at the three point line, and
he airballed the first one and then he bricked the
next two. But that was Rocky Gronkstone. I thought Rocky
Gronkstone was gonna Rocky dunk. Yeah he did, he won
the dunk. Oh no, actually that wasn't Rocky Gronkstone, his
(25:33):
lookalike that everyone thinks who Rocky Gronkstone is, which was me.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
Everyone thinks I was Rocky Gronkston. I wasn't.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
I won an airball three point shot and I want
to throw near. I would never airball a three pointer.
But Rocky Gronkson was But everyone who Everyone thinks it
was me, But I was there and I won the
dunk contest.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
I jumped over a range over the little one. Yeah,
the little range over saw it like the kid range
drover freaking wrong.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Yeah, that was sick. It was really fun. It was cool.
Tommy Lloyd's great. He's there. He's their head coach. He's
been there for a couple of years. He has that
program in the top ten every single year. Every year,
they just can't. They just can't win that big game.
Yet in the sweet success you get it in the tournament,
they will. I mean it's not Rocky.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
Rocky Gronkstone's going to get him some recruits.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Yeah, Rocky Gronkstone came out of the transfer portal. He
was at the Buffalo State Penetary. Uh entry, Yeah, penitentiary.
Uh he's not that smart, by the way, he was
in jail for a while. But uh, he's he's a
really good player. He has a lot of heart, at
a lot of soul, a lot of passion.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Uh is he even an IL deal? He's got one one.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
It's to a gas station. You know he's got he
gets one hundred bucks in free gas a month.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
That's tight. Yeah, what's he got to do for it? Uh?
The how would you know? Anyways, I don't know. You
don't know what he has thought. I just talked to
him real quick.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
He's like, Yo, my ANIL deal is one hundred bucks
and free gas man at the gas station Circle K
and Tucson, Arizona. I didn't ask him what he had
to do for it, but he's like, yeah, he gets
a hundred bucks and free gas. And I think he
has a motorized bike that he puts the gas in.
That's not a car. I saw him pull up. Motorized bike.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
What kind of bike? Just like a Harley?
Speaker 2 (27:33):
No, No, No, like a like a bicycle that has
an engine on him.
Speaker 1 (27:36):
Oh wow, yeah, pretty cool rock. We gotta get this guy,
We gotta, we gotta, we should get him on the podcast. Yeah,

Ball says no, I think my crystal ball says maybe.
I mean, we keep on turning ball over there, it's
Tommy coming out. No, no, he's no, he's not. I
(28:20):
had to ask it the crystal ball, is it mindset? No? Yeah? No,
Well I mean could he yeah he could? Could he?
I don't, but the crystal ball says no. All right,

(29:03):
we should answer some questions from Discord for the chillis
due to the week this week, this is new, this
is new, let's do with discords new, Let's do it.
Here's the link in our bio on Instagram. An X
for the link and join us in the Discord. Question
number one, what's Rob and Jules perfect Meal? From KDP
(29:27):
sixty four ninety four.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
All right, KDB KDP sixty four ninety four.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Great numbers you got in there. They're just a little off.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Oh, six four nine, that's why it's six four nine
four six four nine four. Saw the sixty nine is
for you and the other six in the sixty nine
is back for you. I see what that person, that's
a different number. That is a good one right there.
That's creative KDP six four nine four. But my perfect
meal to me, it was my chicken sou fe. But
(30:01):
now it has been taken over by another meal by
my mom. I love when she cooks on the grill.
And there's this sauce that's only in Buffalo. It's called
Chovetta's sauce and it's like a vinegourette sauce and it
just has a couple of spices in it as well,
very healthy for you, and you put it on chicken
and then it's called Chovetta's chicken. So my mom has
(30:21):
the Chavetta sauce at her house. And also she gets
her unbelievable steaks that she gets from Costco. She gets
these ribbies and these tomahawks and stuff from Costco.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
Unbelievable steaks. They're very you know, Kirkland brand very under rings.
It's not actually underrated.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
If you know about Kirkland brands, it's the best one
of the branders out there, it really is. And she
cooks on the grill and then she has twice baked
potatoes and then she also grills the asparagus. And that's
the perfect meal in my eyes, with a side of
blue cheese from Buffalo to dip your Chavetta's chicken and
(31:00):
your steak into.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
Wow, that's a good meal. I was gonna say French dip,
but that that was really good. I like a good
friend dip, always a good friend tip. Let's get on
to another one favorite dunking on the bills moment for you,
Rob from Pigeon Man all right.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
My favorite dunking on the bill's moment. I would say.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
I have like a couple favorite of Robs dunking on
all right. I remember when he was younger, you just
scored touchdowns anytime we play there my favorite? Yes, but
what was my I think you did it like you
did it like a a running jump spike there.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Yes, yes, yeah, where you like hot double hopping like
I get a little momentum with a skipping and then
I hop and then I spike it. And that's how
you get the most power behind the gronk spike. You
gotta get that momentum built up. And that's what I
was doing in Buffalo because I was playing in my
hometown and I was excited. I wanted to ground spike
that could possibly do. But my favorite dunking on the
(31:57):
Bills moment. Man, Like, there's so many great moments that
we had going against the Bills. It wasn't like any time,
we like never really knocked him out of the playoffs
or anything. They just were never you know, a team
to be, you know, almost making the playoffs, so that
we never knocked him out knocking out They weren't like
they are now. So like I would say my one
(32:21):
handed touchdown catch versus one that was a sick one.
That was a sick one. It was in the corner
of the end zone at Gillette Stadium. I was one
on one with their all pro safety. Who was it
at the time, Poyer, No, not Poyer, the other one, Hi, Yeah,
one of Michael High one of the best cover safeties
all Pro at the time. He was covering me. But
(32:42):
I'm uncoverable because of just my size. I'm not saying
because of how great I am. I'm saying because I
can use my size to my advantage. And then I
have the athleticism at my size to be able to
move around so and get the ball over a smaller defender.
So Tom placed it where only I could make the
playoff my hand out, turned around a little bit, grabbed
it one hand, cut my two feet and bounced tippy
(33:04):
toe into the end zone and made it one unbelievable
one hand catch at Gillette Stadium.
Speaker 1 (33:10):
That was a good one. It was like an alley
oop basically. That was my alley oop dunk on the
Buffalo Bills. I had a couple two touchdown games against
the Bills on the road there. Thirteen one was kind
of cool. It was like my little breakout, a little
two piece. That was probably one of my favorite movies. Also,
the one when we clinched before you got there in
(33:31):
two thousand and nine or something, or were you there
in twenty ten when we clinched and we got snowed in? Yes?
Oh no, I was there. That was twenty ten. That
was two thousand and.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
Eleven, ten, yeah, two thousand times my rookie year. Yes,
And we got snow right storm the game, A snowstorm
came so we couldn't fly barbecue. Yes, you guys went
there in Rochester. I actually stayed back and I caught
a ride up in the morning to meet you guys
to fly out, because obviously my family's there in Buffalo,
so I stayed back with my family, and I actually
missed that trip. And I heard so much about that
(34:03):
trip when you just went to the dinosaur Barbecue.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
But that was a good game. That was. Let's get
into another one. We got a couple more here all,
here we go.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
If both of you are gamers, what games are you
currently playing? From m J see, I'm not really a
gamer right now, but when I was in college, it
was Halo. Halo was just to me one of the
best games to ever, you know, come about my life.
Oh another one as well, because I gamed a little
bit going you know, that was college life was Halo.
(34:33):
Going into the NFL, I played Zombies. Yeah, Zombie Zombies
was on call of duty, and I used to run
home right after team meetings, right after you know that
you practice ends at like two thirty and then you
go in the meetings at three thirty to four thirty
to watch film and then we would be cut from
the stadium at four thirty. I literally used to run
home so I can get on the couch with Nasty
(34:55):
Nate Doug, you know, Nasty NAEs, and we would put
on Zombies and we would play Zombies from four thirty
five the moment I got home because I hustled home here,
don't tell.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
Hopefully Josh McDaniels isn't listening right now.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
I would run out of our meetings, play zombies from
four to thirty five to like literally ten thirty at night,
and then go to bed.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
And then do it again the next day. Yeah, that's
that's the NFL life. Yeah, I got to like level
thirty eight. That's a I wasn't a Zombies guy. I play.
I liked the war zones and stuff, and I was
in the Fortnite for a little. Right now, it's just
FC twenty six, Football Club twenty six, the new FIFA.
That's the only one I'm playing. That's the only one
(35:38):
I'm playing. How does taking a sick day in the
NFL work? From the kid with like five d's the kid,
it's this kid rid. This has to be a kid
rid because the rid always wanted a sick day.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
He just wanted to chill out hall, get some rest,
do his thing on the couch. I don't think I've
ever had a sick day. Yes, So how do sick
days work in the NFL? I mean you really truly
have to be sick in order to be sent on.
Speaker 1 (36:06):
Actually I got well, the COVID I got COVID.
Speaker 2 (36:08):
Yes, well, I got COVID was totally different. That's not
really a sick day. That's called COVID days. Like if
you had COVID, you were sent home for a week.
That was a whole different protocol sick days.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Like he told you in the trainer's room, like say here,
here's some fluids and you have to sit there by yourself.
Like that was like I just remember doing that once
when I was really sick. Yeah, and like they isolated.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
They would send you home if like you truly have
like the sweats, they would only send you home. Is
like they take your temperature and you truly just show
right on the spot that your temperature.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
You know, you're you're you have a fever, right, Yeah,
they'd send you home. They would send you home. Then
your hands down and then they'd have a trainer, come
check on you or something like that. You're they take
care of you.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
But only if you're like truly, truly, truly sick, Like
you can't just have like a little cold.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
They're never gonna send no sniffles. It's not just like
I'm going to go in, no running nosey, Like literally,
you gotta be dying, dying. Food poisoning. I got. I
had food poisoning. Once they sent me home, it was bad,
you know, I kind of had to like you had
to kind of prove it. So like I had like
food poisoning and I would like one in and I
(37:18):
was like, yo, Jim, look at the toilet. I puked.
I would show him. I'd be like, yo, I'm throwing
up while taking a diarrhea and I.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Feel like, watch you ship. I would say, come here,
come watch me, just to prove it. And he'd be like, oh,
I believe you.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
I believe I'm not.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
I'm like, no, come freaking watch me diarrhea and throw
up at the same time, Jim like I'm sick. Like
that's the only way you got sick days in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
That's the only way. Yeah. So that to answer your question,
that was it. Yeah, we got one more. I like
this question.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
This guy's asking me about my puzzling skills. Who I
like so, Rob, you recently on your Instagram story were
showing off an elaborate five hundred piece puzzle that you
had completed.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
Yes, I did, thank you very much.
Speaker 2 (38:01):
And by the way, I only showed off one of
the five hundred piece puzzles I completed. I actually completed
two five hundred piece of puzzles and that equals a
thousand pieces. WHOA, that's a lot of pieces, jewels, that's
a lot of piece, a lot of pieces.
Speaker 1 (38:15):
I can tell you that.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
Have you ever glued together a completed puzzle and then
framed it? I never glued together complete a puzzle, But
there are like these cases now, like it's like, what
is it like models?
Speaker 1 (38:28):
No? You three dimensional? No?
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Like you clear? It's like clear, it's like puzzle holders.
Oh you oh, puzzle piece holders. Yeah, and you frame
them so you don't put them together. You don't glue
it together. It was just a beach house. One of
the puzzles was and the other one I was an
ice cream stand. And I'm becoming so good at puzzles.
Back in the day, A five hundred piece puzzle like
(38:51):
this would have taken me about, you know, probably fifteen
to twenty hours to do. And now I'm knocking out
these puzzles, five hundred piece puzzles. I sat there, I
did it for five and a half hours, and I
woke up and I did it for another hour and
a half.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
So I knocked it out in a total of seven hours.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
So once you get on a stroll, Once you get
on a roll, I mean you just boom, you start
knocking it out.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
What are you thinking about when you're doing these puzzles?
Speaker 2 (39:13):
You're just thinking about finding the next piece and getting
it done and fitting them together. Because every piece you
fit together, you feel accomplished, you feel satisfied, and its rewarding.
So five hundred pieces you feel satisfied four hundred and
ninety nine times, not five hundred times. Why, Joel's because
(39:33):
the first piece isn't done. You can't. There's always gonna
be one piece that doesn't connect. Out of five hundred
the very beginning, four hundred ninety nine connections you get.
Speaker 1 (39:45):
Is not five hundred. No, there's five hundred pieces, but
you only get four hundred ninety nine matches. Like pieces together. Yeah,
I think so. He's a number of guy. What a
question from Rachel c on Discord. I want to you
know what, that's gonna be my new gift. Like whenever
I'm in like a new state, or like I travel,
(40:07):
I get lily like candy and like a snow globe,
and I'm gonna get drunk like a puzzle.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
I'm telling you this is why I do puzzles. Puzzles
put your brain chemistry back together as well, probably you
know it. Really start doing puzzles. Say you're partying, you're
traveling back home six hour flights that I do, and
you get home You're like, wow, I feel woozy.
Speaker 1 (40:24):
You know, I feel jet lag. I feel like I
can't even form a sentence. All that stuff. Well, what
do I do.
Speaker 2 (40:30):
I go to the puzzles, and the puzzles they make
me feel satisfied. And also if I'm bored, I go
to the puzzles. If I'm not feeling complacent, if I'm
not feeling present, I go to the puzzles. And within
five six hours of just going straight, within the first
thirty minutes, you know, it's kind of tough. It's like
working out the first five minutes is tough, and then kaboom,
you get into the groove.
Speaker 1 (40:51):
Well, same with puzzles.
Speaker 2 (40:52):
You're just sitting there, you're bored now, the first thirty
minutes you're not really feeling it. Then all of a sudden,
everything just starts turning and kicking in and you get
it and you sit there for five six hours straight.
You knock out the puzzle and you're done. You get
up and you're like, oh my gosh, it's eleven pm
at night, like, what happened?
Speaker 1 (41:07):
What happened to my hole?
Speaker 2 (41:08):
Until your night, you don't think about food, you don't
think about drinks, nothing. You just go and you're satisfied
and it makes you present. And that's why I do puzzles.
Speaker 1 (41:16):
We're making a Dude's on Dudes puzzle. It's gonna be
one thousand piece puzzle. It'll be coming to you guys soon.

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
