about Michael Irvin. But right now it's time for this,
all right.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
So something that has made us laugh in the past
and still does to this day, there's a clip from
Little Posts, maybe a little in COVID, but a little
post COVID. Just by twenty twenty one, Ish Fortnite was
a big deal. I think it helped a lot of
people get through COVID I played a little Fortnite, and
I'm not even like a big gamer guy, played a
little Fortnite festival stages like Guitar Hero back in the day,

(01:15):
I play that like every weekend, play.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
Guitar on it. Now, Yes, that's bad, it's really fun.

Speaker 3 (01:20):
Christina and I grew up in the Guitar Hero generation,
so that would really hit home.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
Yeah, but Ben would often play.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
Ben even bought me a headset so I could play
with him, so we would play sometimes, had a good group.
I don't think I was a part of this game though.
Ben was playing with a couple of guys that you
got to know. Happy Chop was one guy's name. Yeah,
Shooter mcswagen was another game. And I'm assuming a cop
from prosper.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Now, keep in mind that I grew up playing video games,
but arcade games, and then I had it in television.
We weren't in television family. Some families are Atari, some
are Callico Vision. We weren't in television family. And then
moved on to PlayStation and went down that road. But
I'd always played games like Madden and stuff like that,
and then I'd never played the first person shooter games.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
But my kids started playing Fortnite.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
So I was like, let me make sure this isn't
like Grand Theft Auto and it's safe for him. Yeah,
And while I was testing it, I got addicted to
it and fell in love with it.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
And had a blast with it.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
And the most fun I ever had was when we
all played and Christina played, Oh my God, because I've
never heard anyone cuss that much. The guy was blushing.
I was uncomfortable. It was powercussing.

Speaker 3 (02:22):
I call it video game Tourett's Yeah, she can't control
what she's saying, which she's thinking so much. And let
me just say, there's a lot of buzz in the
gaming world about Grand Theft Auto six. It's gonna come
out in November or something.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
Ben.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
When I started working with you guys in twenty thirteen,
back at the Fan my first full time foray Into Radio,
I was twenty five years old. Ben goes, hey, Man,
do you play video I was like, man a little bit,
because man, I bought this game for my kids and
I just don't think they need to be playing it.
And he handed me the physical disc of Grand Theft
Auto five.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
It's been thirteen years since that game has been relaxed. Guy,
but Ben gave me that.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
Because he realized that there was the strippers in there
doing lap dances instead for health.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Yeah, they'll rejuvenate your health by pulling over and picking
up a street walker. And also, like we were playing,
you had to start the game and you're calibrating everything,
and my son goes, Dad, why are.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
We shooting the police officers? Are we the bad guys?

Speaker 1 (03:10):
I was like, all right, turn this off, bring this
off immediately, let's give it to KT.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
So what you're gonna hear is wild and chaotic, but
it's been playing Fortnite with his friends.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
And this is Battle Royale. It's usually four. You have
teams of four and you go out and play a
bunch of other teams of four. So I'm playing with
three other dudes who are very good, and I'm the worst.
I just happen to be the one at live at
the end. So they're communicating with me, trying to coach
me to the victory.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
On shooter, He's gotta shoty over here.

Speaker 4 (04:06):
It's so chaotic, and then adding the fart audio and
the scene from step brother on top of it, but
just those guys being so happy and so elated that
Ben got that kill.

Speaker 1 (04:17):
And Ziggy was happy chopping there. He's the one going oh,
and I go, hey, was your wife asleep or something?
Is that why you were being quiet and doing and
celebrating that way? He goes no, I'm like, wait, that's
just normal celebrations, like the Cowboys scored a touchdown.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
Hey man, I just got a promotion. This sounds very sensitive.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
Well, that made us laugh, So we're gonna revisit the
laugh Vault every day at seven o four, and that
one made us laugh. Coming up next, though, and trending
had been this made my jaw drop. The most shocking
Michael Irvin story that I've never heard.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
