So Corny, my our disagreement bring I do. And here
we are Divide live on Fox Sports The Gambler. I
was just reading that.

Speaker 4 (01:24):
I think you sent me.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
Good God, I got some research to do. Uh. End
of the week. So many things happening. Did I even
say it? In one of two five Philly one four
to one, Trenton and check us out on the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 4 (01:40):
Dude, I feel like if you don't say it like
you'll just like have an aneurysms might let you say it.
My head will let you finish.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
My head will just hit the table. Bro so much
this week, what do you want to die? First of all,
you had a great Monday. Monday, Yes, let's start. Let's
start with that. Yeah, and I'm going to tell you
about my Thursday and we'll see who had the better
week so far.

Speaker 4 (02:08):
So I was out there repping iHeartRadio, Iconic Candy, Children,
Specialized Hospital, Eat Clean Bro at the first ever Eat
Clean Bro. I don't want to get it wrong because
my apologies. You know your local lenders Eat Clean Bro

(02:30):
golf outing. So it was pretty awesome. It was that
Trump National or yeah, Trump National Golf courts in colts Neck. Now,
the only thing I'll tell you is like, regardless if
you like this guy or eat this guy, my man
knows how to make a golf course. Okay, Yeah, it
was awesome. They have Whole nineteen and that's where iHeart
and Iconic Candy was set up. And it's just like

(02:54):
a fun hole. So it's like you get to play.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
It's short. From what I saw, it.

Speaker 4 (02:58):
Looks yeah, it's like a one up par one twenty
like part three one twenty, you know, but it's like
it reminds me like a little bit of mini golf
because the green is centered in like water is there,
so like you're gonna lose your ball if you don't
get on the green. So it's green or nothing. Right,
there's no fair away, there's nothing like you got to

(03:18):
get one on the green. So it's cool. So either
you waste the ball or you know, being that it
was you know, best ball. We obviously had a couple
on the green, but it was it was so much fun, man, DJ.
Normally there's shots taken, there's a lot of money on
a whole nineteen that is lost or won, so it's

(03:39):
it's a lot of cool stuff. So you could win
back your whole round or like you know, if you
lost like fifty bucks turning the round, you could double
down right there. It's it's really cool and it it
ends right in front of you know, the turn in
the halfway house. So it's just a pretty remarkable thing.
And shout outs to Kayla and Jamie of v Klean

(04:00):
bro They know how to party. Uh. There was a
rubber ducky uh longest yard they had a they had
one of the launchers that you can launch your ball.
My guy, Kevin, my boss, actually he uh you know,
had the longest drive. I don't care what anybody says.
Of the day with the with the Paul launcher was insane.

(04:20):
They had like seven drivers that you could borrow on
this one hole and they're like, hey, you want to
hit your drive with a seven hundred dollars driver. I
was like, absolutely, dude, I knuke this thing. It was
like and it was awesome because it was a loaded back, Yeah,
exactly like it. It just oh, this is what money
feels like if you could golf right. So, like they

(04:41):
had uh, the two Italian twins I forget their names, jeez,
comedians heckling you out of court at a on a
thing and our boss, our president Jeff and then like
had a viral moment. It was pretty funny because their
caddy his name was Josh. He was good, but it
wasn't like expectations I had of my first ever caddy.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
A lot of second everybody got a caddy.

Speaker 4 (05:04):
Yo, and it had iconic candy on the back. It
looked insane.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
So each foursome had a cat had a caddy like
and it's funny because you know where it says do
not step on the back, like they that's where the
caddy hangs out on the back of the car.

Speaker 4 (05:17):
So I was like, I even told Jeff. I was like,
they should change that to do not step unless you're
a caddy, uh, because they just like ride hatchback. Uh.
But Josh was either new or like just like kind
of you know whatever. Like I assume a lot of
people are members so they know the course so he

(05:39):
doesn't have to share it with them. But we were
new to the course, so we're asking a lot of
questions and there wasn't much answers. So when we got
to the to the comedians, Jeff whips out his phone
and he's like, oh, I gotta pay this guy, Like
he hasn't given me anything, Like I literally I should
have hit a four four iron and gave me a five, like,

(05:59):
you know, And I was I was begging Jeff to
be like, yo, can we have like a happy Gilmore
moment where like you ask them what kind of club
you should use and then you use a different club
and be like yeah, good call, and you're fired. Yeah,
So dude, it was awesome, but I thought it was
like having a built in GPS, so I didn't use
my app. So, like I'm not saying like that took

(06:21):
me mentally out of the game, but I definitely, for
the first time in my life, everything was clicking except
for my irons, and I've never had that issue. We're hidden,
fair ways, we're hidding everything. You know. Drives looked great.
You know, I laid us up for a Birdie on
a part three. I felt great about that. You know,

(06:41):
there was just my irons I couldn't figure out for
the first time, and I was just like, very point
wide irons.

Speaker 3 (06:47):
Are your wedges wedges?

Speaker 4 (06:48):
Yeah, wedges, yeah, all the above actually so uh probably
six iron all the way to like my gap.

Speaker 3 (06:57):
Yeah damn man. Yeah, it's normally pretty good with you.
Yeah irons.

Speaker 4 (07:01):
Yeah, oh I had a couple.

Speaker 3 (07:03):
Well the par three you must have laid on My
wedges were good. Now the par three were you laid
up for Birdie?

Speaker 4 (07:08):
That was that was it was like a yeah five
or six, you know a lot of it was like
when this when that like so it was like two
hundred yards, Like every part three was two hundred even.

Speaker 3 (07:19):
The swinging and ding it was yeah, yeah, holand one
one hundred and eighty with up on a mountain with.

Speaker 4 (07:26):
An afro around the fair way.

Speaker 3 (07:29):
No way try to get loft under the your four iron.

Speaker 4 (07:33):
I asked Jeff. I was like, yo, dude, did they
like not mo the night before just because they knew
they were having us there? And there's all these competitions.
It's like they do that to protect the golf course,
but legacy is normally hard. I was like, I just
played a week ago and I was like, this was
and then we played.

Speaker 3 (07:53):
It's gotta protect this club for real serious.

Speaker 4 (07:57):
But shout out to e Clean Bro, Jamie Cala, Kayla
uh and everybody over there. I mean, it was just unbelievable.
Jordan and Kim from Kind of Candy Squeeze Pop just
got released today, which is sick ouch. Bubblegum is on
its way. You could go to five Blow, you can
go everywhere. But Icon of Candy. Not only is it
are they resurrecting your favorite candies? There are, legit the

(08:21):
coolest couple that I've met in a long long time,
and they had a blast. Felt like I was family.
Alexa was there, she felt like she was family. And
it's just like whenever I see those people like I
just want to hug them and and wish them the
best of luck. So they're really cool. I met Kim's
twin brother. He's really cool too. Oh yeah, And I

(08:44):
just pointed out because Corey is also a twin. And
it's funny because at I hired, everybody's like, man, that
guy Corey. He's on every freaking chow every time it
turned on, it's Corey Barrel. I'll bro that's Burt. That's
Burt Man, that's Burt. So yeah, dude, next year, will
we'll do it big. The divide will be there. You know.
I already have ideas of ways we could make Cold

(09:06):
nineteen better, you know. And and Nugget killed it. Shout
outs to q Ando two, Nugget, Alexa and her boyfriend,
they were there and they also did an amazing job.

Speaker 3 (09:18):
That's good man, that sounds that sounds. Are you ready though,
because that was your Monday, that was my Monday to Thursday.
I got to go to the mall. My god, it
was awful, which mallbridge. Yeah, yeah, dude, I haven't stepped

(09:38):
footing them all. So first of all, I think we
said I know, I definitely said it in the group chat.
All right, this is a couple of months ago. So
around Father's Day, my wife let me know that as
a part of my Father's Day gift, she was gonna
come with me to the mall and we were going
to pick out some new cologne for myself. Yeah, because
the cologne that I've been wearing the last twelve years

(09:59):
of my life, probably more. At this point, She's like,
I can't stand the smell of it anymore. Dude, it's
my favorite Colonne. So she's like, we need to pick
out a new one. So great, Yeah, thank you, Happy
Father's Day to me. Let's pick out a Colonne that
you're gonna like. So we get there. First of all,
when was the last time you stepped foot inside an
actual mall? Probably a lot sooner than me, since you

(10:19):
have a young child that likes to shop.

Speaker 4 (10:22):
Yeah, it's been a while. But we also we went
to the mall. What is it?

Speaker 3 (10:27):
Oh, you like the New Jersey Mall of America, whatever,
super or whatever. No, this was just the Quaker Bridge Mall.
This was like this saidest dude. Half the stores aren't
even there anymore. They're just like the other half. I
don't recognize. It's not crowded at all. It's just it's
such a terrible experience. And then you walk in. Of course,
we go to like Macy's, the Fragrance, Fragrance Department, fag

(10:50):
Wins Department, and uh, Susan Wallman was there. Now we
go to the Fragrance Department and there's nobody in this
It's a Thursday, nobody's in this place. So of course
all five women at the counter are trying to help me.
My wife's like we had the baby. She's like, I'll
walk around with her. You pick out what you want.
I'm like, why you're the one that smell. Yeah, she's like, no,

(11:10):
goes pick out something. So I like, I find too
that are like okay, And then she comes over and
she's like no.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
Like so we walk out of the store and I'm like, hey,
not for nothing, Like, why wouldn't you just come over
to the counter with me to begin with?

Speaker 4 (11:24):
Yeah, She's like because it's what did she say?

Speaker 3 (11:26):
She goes, Ultimately, ultimately it's what you want. That's like no, no, no,
no no, no. Ultimately it's what you want. Initially, initially
it's what I want, but ultimately it's what you want.
It was just God, it was a waste.

Speaker 4 (11:41):
That's so fun.

Speaker 3 (11:42):
It did end we found a really good pizza spot,
a new one.

Speaker 4 (11:46):
I thought you're gonna say, like, i'd not wear your car.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
No, no, no, we're still in the hunt. There's a
few that she doesn't mind, or I should say that
she hates less than my current that I actually enjoy.
So we'll see what tomorrow brings. But what was the
new pizza place called Corleone's. It's actually like fifteen minutes
from here. It's not far, it's like seven minutes from me.

(12:09):
But here's the thing. I don't know if you've noticed
this before. This is like the anomaly. I have yet
to find a pizza place that does both really good
pizza and really good like hot sandwiches as well. Yeah,
it's fair like I have yet to find one that
does like both really good. I found at least three
fantastic pizza places near me, but there's sandwiches like if

(12:33):
you get a chicken palm with your pizza, yeah, forget it,
it's not good at all. Right, But then on the
other hand, I've found places that have really good sandwicheszza,
but the pizza's garbage. Elios yeah, why why someone help
us out here? You recommend I can't, man.

Speaker 4 (12:49):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (12:50):
It angers me, Like it's twenty twenty four, who's working
on the cure for cancer. Let's get these pizza places
like really up here, you know what I mean? Like,
where's where's that fundraiser? You know I want pizza places? No, No, we.

Speaker 4 (13:04):
Had that there in Covid. Like we're like, you know,
trying different spots or just like trying to keep small
business alive. Dude, that's the other thing, like shout out
to Manja, that's my favorite place to go.

Speaker 3 (13:18):
Yo.

Speaker 4 (13:18):
But they're spaghetti is the best spaghetti in those drei
spaghetti like.

Speaker 3 (13:23):
All of their pata No, typically the spaghetti spaghetti because
because a lot of times what do you get, Like
you sub spaghetti for Penney, right, like everybody gets spent
of course, spaghetti's forget about.

Speaker 4 (13:35):
It, yeah and forget about Yeah. Steve Is the owner
is from Brooklyn, just like me. But the spaghetti is
to die for. The spaghetti is you're really setti right now. No,
I'm not a spaghetti guy either, Like we're like.

Speaker 3 (13:54):
A tramp, dude.

Speaker 4 (13:56):
I would I would definitely like share with the dog
if I had to. That's how good it is. I'm
not kidding. I'm not kidding, Manja, spaghetti is to die for.

Speaker 3 (14:08):
What is your So you said you're not really a
spaghetti person, I'll tell you. Might be the reason I
always substitute the spaghetti for the penne, because I know
I'm gonna make a mess with myself if i get
to spaghetti and I don't know how to eat it properly.
Like when they give me a fork and a spoon,
I'm like, what the hell am I supposed to do
with this? I'm supposed to do with this? So I'm like,
just give me the penne. I just don't need this spoon.

Speaker 4 (14:28):
Bake CD was my go to Italian thing, so then
like when I discovered penne, it was like, oh, it's
kind of like bake c D light, right, So like
I went penne also, like it's just I think it's
easier to cook. So a lot of places don't mess
it up as much as spaghetti. All right, yeah maybe,

(14:49):
but maybe Steve knows how to make some spaghetti.

Speaker 3 (14:53):
I've never found a pizza place that has good pop
Mom spaghetti.

Speaker 4 (14:57):
Uh No, Manja is great.

Speaker 3 (15:00):
I know I've been introduced to the sandwiches and pizza
a man, just not I mean the Super.

Speaker 4 (15:05):
Bowl, they well know the watermelon then they sponsored that. Yeah,
that's coming up on her anniversary.

Speaker 3 (15:15):
Man, let's get into some sports here, guys, unless you
guys want to hear us talk about the mall and pizza.
I mean we're talking about golf earlier, so that works.
The Mets are in second place in the NL East.
The Yankees are in second place in the AL East.
The Phillies are still on top. But my god, I mean,
don't get me wrong. Look the Phillies, Uh, they played

(15:36):
great this last week, taking care of the Dodgers two
out of three. You know, the Mariners, of course, uh,
you know, you drop two against them. But but ultimately,
you guys are headed in the right direction, and more importantly,
you're you're still in first. You got the Diamondbacks, when
the Mets the team you have to worry about behind it,

(15:59):
come on, smooth, smooth sailing here. Yeah. And then you know, obviously, uh,
trade deadline came and went right, Yeah it's gone.

Speaker 4 (16:08):
Yeah, yeah, get at it. You'll get some moves on waivers.
But even that, like it's like playoff Edgible like that.

Speaker 3 (16:15):
To me, that's like the most exciting point from here
on out is not like the pickups off waivers, but
at when playoff baseball comes around and you see exactly
who's on that roster. Yeah, they add and subtract just
and you kind of you try to figure out what
they're thinking. And if you're Filly, you're trying to figure

(16:35):
out what your manager is thinking. And if you're the Yankees,
you're trying to figure out what the front office is thinking.

Speaker 4 (16:40):
Well, like, yeah, it's once I got better at poker,
once I realized I should think this, Like once the
table gets smaller, you have to then realize you need
certain assets on your team, uh, and you need to
make certain bets. So like with poker, I started thinking
with a baseball mind. I was like, oh, when there's

(17:00):
like three or four of us left at the table, uh,
you know, I need to like assess it almost like postseason,
you know.

Speaker 3 (17:08):
And then I got taught probability and all that other stuff.

Speaker 4 (17:11):
Right right, So like that's that's now the fun part
of the postseason.

Speaker 2 (17:15):
Like I like that, like start counting cards, yeah, or
just you know guys that could hit a home run,
off the bench, Like, I mean stuff like that, guys that, Okay,
we need another lefty because this guy can't he's batting
one eighty against the lefty.

Speaker 4 (17:30):
We're gonna put him into the pin bullpen, and like
just different things that that allow you to kind of
realize that, hey, like it's you know, it's a playoff
season maybe, so I agree with that. In the roster spots,
you know, people that are injured that might come back
for the next series, stuff like that. So it's just
kind of cool.

Speaker 3 (17:51):
It's great. Uh yeah, No, listen, what I what I
love the most about the way things are looking right now.
Now granted it's the beginning of August, still okay, and
we don't really have to start looking at certain scenarios
till probably the first or second week of December. So
there's a lot of baseball, you know, and things you

(18:13):
guys hopefully listen from week to week. I mean, you
realize how quick things change, you know, the two three
weeks ago I was cursing at the Yankees, and now
they seems to finally found you know, a few things
here and there. But come September, if things stay the
way they are, that met Philly series is gonna be
fan thing tactic thirteenth. It's gonna Friday the thirteenth, and

(18:37):
Mike heroll promote it. But set your calendar, guys. That's
gonna be probably the biggest back nine series that we're
gonna see. That's really gonna mean a few things. Hopefully,
I mean Philly. Hopefully. You guys are sitting pretty and
it doesn't matter if you drop one or two. But
I have this sneaking suspicion that it's gonna mean a

(18:58):
lot more for these guys, and they think it is
gonna mean. But Mike, tell them what we're gonna win
on Friday at thirteenth win. I don't know, you know,
it's a game show thing. Tell them what they're gonna win, Johnny.

Speaker 4 (19:09):
And Yeah, we're gonna have a lot of sponsors. We're
gonna be a Infinity live broadcasting with all one of
four point five Fox Sports, the Gambler. We're gonna have
a crew, a panel, you know, I know the seven
Line crew is gonna be around. We're gonna do something
with them on Saturday. You know, Sheffield Shuffler is gonna
be there. Our guys from j Matt Customs, the creator

(19:33):
that Oh my god, sign Uh, there's gonna be a
ton of people popping in and out from both sides,
both angles, you know, because we like to keep it
neutral un till it's not. But personally, my feeling is
I think the Mets are gonna be down double digits
by that time. I'm not gonna lie to you. Yeah, come,
it's a little bit of a reverse THNX. But honestly,
like I look at it, I look at everything, and

(19:54):
I'm like, oh, this is logical. The Braves are playing
like complete garbage right now.

Speaker 3 (20:00):
They are.

Speaker 4 (20:00):
Yeah, they've lost four of the last six, five in
a row. You know, I'm laughing because we caught hunted
the Chicago White Sox a little bit late. They were
in the teams with their loss losses by the time
we started following, but like they almost got twenty two
losses and row. Yeah, and then you put money on them.

Speaker 3 (20:18):
I put money on them, but I parlayed. I parlayed
them with a few other teams and a team and
I won't name blew it.

Speaker 4 (20:26):
But that's okay, it's all right. Like look like so
there's there's like you said, there's still a lot of
baseball to be played. We got to get out of August. Uh,
talk to me August thirtieth, and then I'll let you
know how I feel about Frita of the thirteenth. Regardless,
the Mets are still going to show up, whether it's
a spoiler role, whether it's you know, a role that
could land us into a playoff spot. Like I'm all

(20:48):
about it so ideally, Like if we could just keep
status quo, I'd be happy. Like Friday the thirteenth can't
get here any sooner.

Speaker 3 (20:56):
Yeah, man, it's gonna get here quick, and I really
can't wait to see kind of what we're playing for. Uh,
when when that time comes around, we gotta take a
quick break, guys when we come back the Olympics. I
know we said we weren't excited about it last week,
but we are on board after seeing how much USA
is really dominated. What feels like the last four days
USA USA Stay with us. Will be right back to

(21:17):
vide live on Fox Sports.

Speaker 1 (21:18):

it's currently known. Check us out to give us a
shot network on.

Speaker 4 (21:37):
Our Ubi wh comes back.

Speaker 3 (21:41):
You know what's funny is even like any any correspondence
that you read and they have to mention X, they
always say X and then in parentheses formerly Twitter because
people just like saying Twitter. It was like, I'm trying
to think of like a rebranding where people refuse to
take the new brand iHeartMedia.

Speaker 4 (22:00):
There are some older people are like, oh, how's it,
how's working for clear Channel?

Speaker 3 (22:05):
And I'm like, well, like, oh yeah, that's ancient. It is.

Speaker 4 (22:10):
It is. But that was a quick transition, like everybody
forgot I would say, like you know born seventy nine up,
they forgot about like Twitter, uh, clear clear Channel like that,
you know, because it was kind of like Viacom where
they were like quiet, you didn't realize how much they owned. Yeah,

(22:30):
and now with iHeart it's kind of more in your face.

Speaker 3 (22:33):
That's fair. I just don't know if any I guess
we gotta wait for the new generation, the new wave.

Speaker 4 (22:39):
Because do you know what Viacom owns?

Speaker 3 (22:43):
No? Right? Everything?

Speaker 4 (22:44):
But and they might not be called Viacom anymore, but
you know it was them in clear channel for the
longest time and now it's iHeart cable Vision.

what do we do?

Speaker 4 (23:10):
Ohm on the not I don't.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
Even know how we missed this in the first segment,
But on Wednesday you had a birthday?

Speaker 4 (23:19):
No I did?

Speaker 3 (23:20):
You did? Why don't you?

Speaker 4 (23:22):
He was why because a Wednesday birthday is kind of
crappy and absolutely I feel bad for kids, like it
didn't bother me much, but like a Wednesday like so
for example, even for me like Jen's parents wanted to
celebrate it last Friday, I'm like, it's not even close
to my birthday, right, and then like this, Hey, we

(23:42):
know you were.

Speaker 3 (23:43):
Born this day, but do your mind like six days beforehand?
For us?

Speaker 4 (23:50):
So it's yeah, so Peyton like did this elaborate like
find us thing like where I had the like follow
arrows and stuff. So I filmed it because as soon
as I figure it out, She's like, Dad, I set
up some traps like make sure you're ready. So I
filmed it like and it was her screaming happy birthday
at me. But it's like almost six days before my birthday, right,

(24:11):
and then like Wednesday rolls around your middle of the week.
People are responding to like your work stuff, so you
have to actually work, right, So.

Speaker 3 (24:18):
Adults do they work on their birthday. If you're an
adult and you take off on your birthday, I get that,
but it doesn't correspond with like another holiday, Like if
your birthday is Christmas, it doesn't count. But if you're
an adult and you're like, my birthday is Monday and
I'm taking off on my birthday and it's not like
a milestone birthday or something like that, you're I hate you.
You're a stupid adult.

Speaker 4 (24:38):
But when you have an eight year old or.

Speaker 3 (24:42):
I'm talking about someone that's like, I'm not going to
work on Tuesday, dude. If your birthday is on a
Friday and you want to take off and do something right,
like by all means, But if your birthday's on a Tuesday,
and you're like.

Speaker 4 (24:53):
Right because of the e cling brothing, and I'm not
complaining like my work was already like bogged up, right,
So Monday was strictly with my clients.

Speaker 3 (25:03):
Yeah, still worked Monday.

Speaker 4 (25:05):
Oh of course I get that, but like there's like
other things that I had to take care of that like,
so Tuesday got crazy. Wednesday was crazy.

Speaker 3 (25:13):
Sorry. I tried calling you Tuesday morning. Oh I couldn't.
You were like, dude, I'm in the meeting, and I'm like, yeah,
put me on Yeah in the meeting. That's why I called.

Speaker 4 (25:22):
I want to stand that bro.

Speaker 3 (25:27):
It was when you do a Cory you interrupted my
online poker.

Speaker 4 (25:30):
It was the beer version the Catalina wine mixer that
we are working on Jeff and I. Uh so, it
was dude, it was just nuts. And then you know,
Peyton made me breakfast for my birthday, maybe dinner. You know,
I had all these gifts and she's like, we got
to make a video about this. We got to do
video of that. A lot of people think I make
these videos because I wanted it, Like no, she dictates

(25:51):
it like like literally it's like one of my clients,
like it's it's unbelievable. So no, yeah, thank you. My
birthday was awesome. But shout out to say kid, who
is like five to fifteen that has to have a
Wednesday birthday eventually, like they kind of suck, you know.
And then also, it's my last year in my thirties,
so I think I'm a little depressed.

Speaker 3 (26:14):
Man that went quick. Yeah, it sucks right, last year already.

Speaker 4 (26:21):
And then so the younger people I work with were like, so,
what are you like forty five and I was like, no,
I'm thirty nine. And then they're like, oh well, I
was like, yeah, I'm kind of depressed, like it's my
last year in the thirties, and they're like, you should
just stop celebrating your birthdays because they're all going to
be pretty much the same. And I was like, thanks,

(26:41):
twenty year old kid that has no idea what this
world's about. And then the older sale.

Speaker 3 (26:47):
Year olds, you twenty year olds go out and celebrate
Tuesday for no reason whatsoever.

Speaker 4 (26:51):
Yeah, the older salespeople were like, yo, what are you
like twenty nine? And I'm like, actually, I'm thirty nine,
and They're like, get the hell out of it here,
like you know what I mean. And so like it
was like, am I the only one in my age
group right now?

Speaker 3 (27:03):
I think twenty nine year old Mike still had hair.

Speaker 4 (27:06):
Yeah he did. Thirty year old Mike had hair.

Speaker 3 (27:09):
When did you shave your head?

Speaker 4 (27:11):
Peyton was about eighteen months old. And because I know
that because I cut the corner and she's like she
heard my voice, like daddy, daddy, and she's like, that's
not my daughter. It was like, like you ever see
like where me mim like just hits a wall. She
like hit that glass, that fake wall, like and it

(27:32):
ran the other way. It was so funny. Angelica hated
it in the beginning, you know, shadow Sangelica. She forgot
my birthday, but she's been very apologized. That's the best
thing about having a Wednesday birthday because everybody else's lives
are going crazy, right, So she forgot it, texted me
like later on the night, and now she owes me

(27:53):
a dinner. So I'm super excited about that.

Speaker 3 (27:55):
She's the worst. I know why you're friends with her.
She's there. Is she pregnant again?

Speaker 4 (28:01):
By the way she is?

Speaker 3 (28:02):
She is? People know that, right. I saw it on
social media.

Speaker 4 (28:05):
Yeah, it's now officials, so we could good for her.
Man Air down on the radio.

Speaker 3 (28:09):
Absolutely, congratulations and I'm gonna I'm gonna give you a call.
When I get off you say Congress and say whose
baby is that? And I'm kidding.

Speaker 4 (28:21):
Oh man.

Speaker 3 (28:21):
All right, guys, I don't know about you, but I've
been watching the Olympics like crazy. Dude. The TV is
just on in my house and I'm feeling patriotic. Call
it the election year, call it the Olympics. Call it
what you want. I am fifty stars and a whole
bunch of stripes are the thirteen I annoyed.

Speaker 4 (28:40):
Stay away from the White House in January sixth All right,
now let me in.

Speaker 3 (28:46):
But Team USA, guys, we are in the lead with
one hundred and three total medals. We have the most
medals out of any other country or sovereign state. We
have the most gold medals at this point in time
that anybody else about to be a lot more. As
soon as the basketball final goes down, we'll talk more
about that, along with the women's volleyball indoor made it
to the gold round. I think that, uh, actually, by

(29:08):
the time you hear this, it'll probably be over and done.
What's hopefully ad some more, But we are. Have you
been watching it all? First of all, it's always on.

Speaker 4 (29:17):
It's fans a gold zone I watched the gold Zone.

Speaker 3 (29:20):
Okay, yeah, all right, well you do watch a little bit.

Speaker 4 (29:22):
Also my new job, ironically, like I watched a lot
of sports now, like you know, watch less sports less,
whereas like my old job, there's TVs.

Speaker 3 (29:31):
Always there because you dictated what was on there. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (29:36):
But also like customer comes in like you and they
say Olympics. So it'll be like, oh, did you know
we got one hundred the USA? You would say, I'm like, yeah, man,
buy TV. You know what, buy microwave by this, you know,
so like now it's a little bit different. So honestly, no,
like I know, someone Bios had a heartbreaking thing on
the balance beam. I watched golf that was freaking unreal.

Speaker 3 (29:59):
You know that was not golf was wild.

Speaker 4 (30:01):
Yeah, golf was crazy, both men's and women's. You know,
that's really cool. I hope that stays forever. In the Olympics,
you know, I won't. I've been watching highlights of four
years ago when you saw Todd Frazier in the Olympics. Also,
like that mess with my head that that was four
years ago. It wasn't really well not really, your right,
it was the twenty twenty Olympics played in twenty twenty one.

Speaker 3 (30:23):
Right, it was only three not that it makes a
huge difference, absolutely huge, like one year. Yeah, but yeah no,
that is like a little bit of a mind uh
freak too uh because they keep referencing back, oh last one.
We're like, oh, that was four years, but it wasn't.

Speaker 4 (30:41):
For it wasn't it wasn't wasn't fake news.

Speaker 3 (30:44):
Man.

Speaker 4 (30:45):
Also, it's every two.

Speaker 3 (30:47):
Or technically technically it's every four is it technically every
two years? We see an Olympics right right between winter
and summer.

Speaker 4 (30:57):
It's weird.

Speaker 3 (30:58):
It is weird, so weird, so weird, unbelievable.

Speaker 4 (31:01):
Also, like gymnastics also in the winter Olympics. Am I
crazy things?

Speaker 3 (31:07):
You are crazy? They're not they should be.

Speaker 4 (31:09):
I feel like it's like because I think of like
wrestling in that, like any indoor sport, even basketball, Like
it's weird that basketball is in the summer Olympics. It's
not played in the summer. Think of it, Jesus, like Christ,
He's right, Jesus, summer is out door sports. Why are

(31:30):
we playing indoor sports?

Speaker 3 (31:32):
You know?

Speaker 4 (31:32):
And I get it because the players are accessible.

Speaker 3 (31:37):
God damn it, man, it's so true. And I mean
it's technically it's not like a winter because I'm trying
to think of like, but I.

Speaker 4 (31:44):
Take exception to the fact that then the actual summer
sports aren't being played right now, right like baseball is
not being played.

Speaker 3 (31:51):
Well, I do think baseball should always be in it.

Speaker 4 (31:53):
I agree.

Speaker 3 (31:54):
I think it's it's similar to basketball. It's very easy
to do a tournament with baseball and you know the country,
I guess the Winter Olympics. Thinking about all of the events,
there's not really like even the indoor events are still cold, right,
like ice skating, hockey, Like it's all played like ice
is involved in some sort of way, you know what

(32:14):
I mean. There's not like a I'm trying to think
of like a Winter Olympic sport where a dude's just
competing in like a T shirt. Like you know, it's
not like but damn man, we won't have to revamp
this whole thing. I had to call the Olympic Committee.

Speaker 4 (32:29):
Hear me out, you guys have been doing this.

Speaker 3 (32:31):
Yeah, basketball, put baseball back on.

Speaker 4 (32:35):
But then, like my argument is like, in why can't
we then just shift because like it would be cool
to have the actual MLB players, including Japanese players, American players,
Latin players like in in the Winter Olympics, then playing
baseball like so it's like my brain just gets fried

(32:55):
over it.

Speaker 3 (32:56):
Like with baseball, I think it's more. Oh no, that
doesn't make it. I can say more of a contract
week where we got lucky.

Speaker 4 (33:03):
Team USA got lucky because you had veterans like Todd
Frazer other guys on the team, but you also had
this youth like Adlee Rushman, like all these guys coming
up right and you know they were able to play
for Team USA. So it was it was a good
mix of old and new. That's not gonna happen in

(33:23):
four years.

Speaker 3 (33:24):
I don't think you know it is coming back for LA,
right LA.

Speaker 4 (33:29):
Baseball won't be back.

Speaker 3 (33:30):
Good has a break. I don't even think break dancing
has been on yet.

Speaker 4 (33:33):
I haven't seen it.

Speaker 3 (33:34):
I have seen breaking that does that even happen? Anyway?
My mind is just blown right now. They're coming to
an end, uh the Olympics. The closing ceremony is on
the eleventh. I believe basketball had quite the dramatic game
on Thursday, almost dropping it to the Serbians. However, great dude,

(33:56):
So if you if you watch, they came back from
like a seventeen thirteen to seventeen point deficit at the
start of the fourth quarter. It was. It was insane.
In the nine minute drive from my gym to my
house the fourth quarter started, I'm like, all right, let
me get home for the end of this game. By
the time I pulled in my driveway, they had already

(34:16):
tied it up. Yeah, it was. It was wild. Steph
came up big, Lebron Embid, even KD. They all came
up big. But honestly, the more I watched that entire game,
like they just they they couldn't have been they were
putting it all out there when they were like, no,
up that creek and they played.

Speaker 4 (34:37):
With their food.

Speaker 3 (34:38):
Yeah, absolutely, Like coming was fun this day. And but
now they got France on Saturday. It should be a
good one hopefully, you know. Maybe No.

Speaker 4 (34:47):
I was laughing because I was thinking, like maybe they
figured out a way they could bet on the game.
It's not an NBA game, and they're like, yo, if
we lose, we pd this X amount, like we could
make a ton of mo because the money line was
like plus twenty thousand for what. Yeah, so imagined that.

Speaker 3 (35:08):
They don't nobody wants a bronze medal. Dude, again, that
Lebron already has a bronze. Le Bron's got two golds
and a bronze. I uh oh god, you just made
another good Pointna, what are the rules? Can like Olympians
bet on themselves? You can bet on the Olympics. This
is just the first Olympics were like pretty much at home.

(35:28):
Betting is a thing, like right, yeah, I feel like,
wasn't that big during COVID?

Speaker 4 (35:33):
No, we at least we weren't thinking that way, you know,
even we.

Speaker 3 (35:37):
Were DraftKings or whatever. Yeah, oh my god, oh my god,
so many good points. Powers Like all right, Noah Lyles
came in third at the two hundred meter on Thursday
and that was like his event, and then he claims
he got COVID and that's why he came in third,
Like do you think he dropped it because he bet

(35:57):
on on? Anybody been him?

Speaker 4 (36:00):
And also do they all have like their own versions
of the interpreter?

Speaker 3 (36:05):
Yeah what dude? God, we gotta take a quick break.
I gotta digest this what just happened. And then when
we come back, we're talking about everything on social media
that Mike and I had found and picked up. There's
some wild and crazy stuff, guys. You just gotta wait
to hear. This is the vide live on Fox Sports.

Speaker 1 (36:22):
The Game The Gambler, Philly's home for all things sports gambling.
You're listening to The Divide right here on The.

Speaker 3 (36:31):
Gambler Divide Live, Fox Sports The Gambler. We're back. Let's
take a look at our socials and see what crazy
things have popped up. What's been a little bit of
a slow week as far as life since Hurricane Debbie
has kind of blown some crappy weather up and around
the Northeast area. Such a Debbie down Such a Debbie downer. No,

(36:51):
what was not a Debbie downer? Is Hurricane Debbie Blue
nearly one million dollars worth of Cocaine's Abbie four upper.
Oh my god, that's Mother Nature really telling you. That's
someone's mad that they're missing a million dollars worth of cocaine.

Speaker 4 (37:08):
But I saw it like sharks, like they found cocaine
and a lot of sharks. Like there's coked up sharks
right now traveling around the show.

Speaker 3 (37:17):
Real man. But that's a hell of a lot of
cocaine to ruin somebody's day.

Speaker 4 (37:23):
That's crazy.

Speaker 3 (37:23):
Of course, Border patrol picked it up before anybody else could.
Narcs Our socials have been blowing up NonStop ever since
we talked about it. Mm hmm. But all of the
open swims at the Olympics, dude, I told you that filthy, filthy,
filthy river.

Speaker 4 (37:43):
It looked like the lake from wa.

Speaker 3 (37:46):
Dude, when Garian athlete swimmers were saying, they're literally avoiding
brown things in the water. What is it? The Sen
the sen scene, Sammy swim Son.

Speaker 4 (38:00):
Have sad tonight, the Cyan River that Siam.

Speaker 3 (38:04):
It's just absolutely disgusting.

Speaker 4 (38:08):
I told you that. I was there. I was there.
I was like, They're like, yeah, I would clean it
up the house, Like people are gonna swim in this
They're like yeah, I was like you know. And and
also like it's just such a hot take from France
because like they were like you weren't allowed to fish
or like try to retrieve metal out of the river
because they said it was a a burial place for

(38:32):
for people that passed away during all the wars and
that there was bodies down there. But all of a sudden,
like yeah, you could swim in it.

Speaker 3 (38:40):
Well, it's not even a river.

Speaker 4 (38:42):
Yeah, it's like, it's not. It's a body.

Speaker 3 (38:44):
It's a sword pipe.

Speaker 4 (38:45):
It's a sword pipe.

Speaker 3 (38:46):
That surrounds France and gives you great views of the
Eiffel Tower. It's not, guys, that's not a river. I
don't know why they keep do they even call it
a river. They might just call it like a waterway
or something, but it's it's not. It's drainage. It's where
the sewage going. It's literally what it is. It's it's not.
It's just coird. People are like, you have you have
Olympic athletes, you have had like the peak athletes representing

(39:09):
every single country swimming in it and getting eco e
sough like.

Speaker 4 (39:17):
And when I when I was there, like I was
asking some of the tourists and you know, tour guides
and stuff like that, I was like, oh, like what
are they gonna do like rowing there? And they're like, no, no,
people are gonna swim in it. I was like that
is terrible because like even the Trenton Triathlon like that
you guys did, I was like, are you really gonna

(39:37):
go in there?

Speaker 3 (39:38):
Like you know, Mercer County Park. I was worried about
that that's a nasty.

Speaker 4 (39:43):
You came out looking like reverse.

Speaker 3 (39:47):
So bad needles everywhere. Al Right, what's next? Dome the
list Pole Vaulter went viral for twerking after winning Metal
Collapse back at the critics. Apparently on Canadian what's her
name here?

Speaker 4 (40:03):
What's her name here?

Speaker 3 (40:04):
Alicia Newman.

Speaker 4 (40:06):
That sounds Canadian, it does, actually.

Speaker 3 (40:08):
Very Newman, new Newman Newman. She took the bronze medal
and Paul vaulting for women a little towerk afterwards. Apparently
she does have a fans account, which is interesting. Again
that name is Alicia Newman, but some people had some

(40:29):
things to say, and she's like, I made a lot
of friends on all these different accounts, and I'm not
going to be apologetic for it. So good for you,
especially for when the Bronze is still doing that sort
of thing.

Speaker 4 (40:37):
There's only one account people are worried about. But yeah, no,
that's cool. Like I don't know, like whatever, like I
don't think of it, like.

Speaker 3 (40:49):
I don't care anymore. Yeah, Like I feel like if
you talk to five people, I laugh one of them
has one of those.

Speaker 4 (40:58):
Accounts, not even the count part. Like I laugh about
the twerking because like dude. Like we had movies where
like we what was it, like Save the Last Dance
or whatever where or one of those dance movies I
can't remember, but they're like, we have this exclusive dance
club and like when they went there, like they're just

(41:18):
grinding up on each other, like that was like twirking
with somebody in front of you or behind you, like
it was never it.

Speaker 3 (41:25):
Was straight up dry humping on the dance.

Speaker 4 (41:27):
Like at least now the women are twirking and like
there's not a dude just standing behind them doing absolutely nothing.
That was our generation, man, That was our generation. Like, yo,
you want to go to you want to go out
to Chili's.

Speaker 3 (41:42):
All a sudden, three people just dumping each other, out
of control.

Speaker 4 (41:47):
It was out of control, like goddamn Chili's.

Speaker 3 (41:51):
Oh my god, actually getting off topic, which is what
we do best. Those movies would crack me up because
they would have things like Save the Last Dance and
then like or something like bring it on or whatever. Yeah,
and then they'd like it did so well and they're like,
all right, we need a sequel we need to make
We're gonna Save the Last Dance again. We're gonna bring

(42:12):
it on again. Then they phoned it in with the
title what are they Gonna Do Again? Yeah, the last
dance again.

Speaker 4 (42:22):
Also, like in that era, they made like every scenario cool,
like the drum line, Like they had Nick Cannon doing that,
and it was the coolest thing in the world, right, Like,
I'm sorry, I don't care if you're the best drum
line in the world. I'm not watching a movie about
you anymore. Drum It's like watch me on one snow
so oh and we're all watching it like it's real

(42:45):
life too. Like that was the funniest part about this,
Like there was actually competitions like this that got that
hard that like thousands in bro.

Speaker 3 (42:54):
It's it just goes to show. I mean, of course
with all these these streaming platforms now there's like too much.
It's like you can't get excited for people get.

Speaker 4 (43:04):
Upset like because that DVD, like those movies would never
be made now, like and they're not being made.

Speaker 3 (43:10):
No, but even like people that would go see that
and they're like oh, like even they use drumline for example,
people went bananas over it. And it's like if that
were to drop today, people are like, oh okay, Like
it's just but like we had not we had exposure
to nothing else.

Speaker 4 (43:24):
We were like, Okay, you can watch it on DVD.

Speaker 3 (43:27):
Stare at my wall or watch Nick Cannon play the
snare drum for two hours.

Speaker 4 (43:31):
And also like schools are still showing that stuff because
like hilariously, like they can't find other content without like
downloading all these apps. Now pretty much speaking of that,
did you see Old Dads? Did you see that movie
on Netflix?

Speaker 3 (43:45):
No, Bibert.

Speaker 4 (43:46):
It's so fun, is it?

Speaker 3 (43:47):
It's so you gotta watch all right, It's there's so much, dude,
Netflix draw. I feel like either I haven't been on
Netflix in a while. They just drop like three new
shows or three shows that we usually watch all have
new c's I still have, dude, I have too much
on my list. Yeah, they abandoned my kid for the
next year and just watch them.

Speaker 4 (44:06):
They definitely took over like that whole Comedy Central vibe. Yeah,
and I'm happy for it.

Speaker 3 (44:11):
Good.

Speaker 4 (44:11):
I'm happy for it because they're making the movies. Adam
Sandler's back in the mix, you know, Bill Burr obviously,
Shane Gillis like, you know so, and my guy Francis
Ellis like there's a ton of people that are getting
their reps now in Netflix that they wouldn't have.

Speaker 3 (44:29):
Fantastic. Yeah, I thoroughly enjoy Shane Gillis all of it,
Like even it's just good. I have Netflix by Comedy
Central for all I care. I mean, just keep all
the funny stuff on Netflix. They're more the merrier. Yeah,
all right, last piece of news, because I'm gonna need
someone to explain this to me a little bit better.
Hul Cogan is considering legal action over Ben Affleck's movie

(44:53):
about his past lawsuit. Apparently, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck
are making a movie or in the process of spitball
in a movie called Killing Gawker, which would detail Hulk
Hogan's lawsuit against the now defunct website Gawker. Ben Afflack
would be the one playing Hulk Hogan. And I don't

(45:14):
know what Matt Damon's doing. I don't know if he's
just helping write it or what. However, it was, mancho Man,
You're gonna have to explain this to me because I
don't even remember. I remember his lawsuit. It was about
his sex tape that got leaked, right, Yeah, and it
got leaked on this Gawker website website. Yeah, but refresh
my memory. I didn't. Didn't he get a deal cut, Like,

(45:38):
wasn't he paid for it to get released.

Speaker 4 (45:41):
I don't know the inner workings of that. I'll leave
that to like the legal team and stuff like that.
But what I do know is, yeah, it was this
drawn out court thing where they were referencing his weekly
appearance on a radio show and like the size of
his member right again, he was like, oh, Cogan has

(46:01):
a nine inch I don't like so, like he was
separating the persona versus like him.

Speaker 3 (46:09):
So they had to like go through all her that stuff,
and they also like I remember the one thing was.

Speaker 4 (46:18):
In that tape he was caught saying racial slurs.

Speaker 3 (46:22):
Oh yeah, that part I remember. So.

Speaker 4 (46:24):
I what I love about this is like he made
a beer for strictly America, right, but he's like, you know,
we all just want to love each other, you know,
we want borders to be protected. Like he just nonchalantly
like drops things that happened to be conservative, like as
opposed to like just saying for all America. Yeah, it

(46:47):
just bought my beer, especially if you're white, like you know,
that's that's what he says. And it's just like it
blows my mind because it's like, yo, this is not
exactly for all America. So like with this thing, it's
gonna kick that back up. And obviously he's trying to
stop it from happening.

Speaker 3 (47:05):
Trying to stop the bleeding.

Speaker 4 (47:07):
But Matt and Ben do this, it would be epic.

Speaker 3 (47:10):
Trying to picture Ben Affleck as Hulk Hogan. Might I
might see it just for that.

Speaker 4 (47:17):
It's just greatly I noticed he he he's going through
the divorce. He made the reverse mohawk or the mohawk
like Ben. Ben has like yeah, he shaved off the
sides and just has the top now like it's a
high So I don't know what he's doing, but uh,
and maybe it's because he realizes, like that has to

(47:37):
grow back and then we'll shave that at the end
and then be Hogan. You know, I'm very curious to
see how he's hulking. No man, I see Matt being
Hulk over Ben.

Speaker 3 (47:49):
I feel like Ben could do a more serious version
where if Matt were to do it, it would just
be like two satire too, like to everybody wouldn't take
him serious, which they shouldn't because you're two people that
should not be playing. I'm sure if you just paid
Hulk he needs the money. I'm sure you need apply here,
here's the media go ahead. All right, guys, have a

(48:11):
good week. We'll be back next Friday. This was the
vide live on Fox Sports.

Speaker 1 (48:14):
The Gambler spreads total and all the prop that's in
the tweens. It's the Gambler.
