From JJ McCarthy To Peyton’s Rookie Woes: Why Patience Wins

Send us a text

A case for patience with JJ McCarthy sparks a broader look at how strategy, not spectacle, steadies teams and fans. We move through Wolves rumors, winter food, oddball headlines, and a frank take on media noise, personal values, and where money really goes.

• JJ McCarthy’s seven-start stats vs Peyton’s rookie stretch
• Why a slowed offense and run game help a young QB
• Vikings defense form and ticket-price reality check
• Timberwolves trade talk, Rudy’s value, and fit over fame
• Winter grind: sauna rentals, Etsy orders, shipping choices
• Comfort food deep dive: chili builds, heat levels, soup wins
• Light news roundup: drunk raccoon, fast shed, RoboCop statue
• Media amplification vs everyday people, values vs legislation
• Wealth concentration, buybacks, and local spending
• Seasonal plan for the show: football focus, golf in summer

SPEAKER_01 (00:24):

SPEAKER_00 (00:28):
We're out of the playoffs.
No, we're not.
Yeah, we are.
No, we're not.
Packers won.
Fuck Packers.
We're out of the playoffs.
Yeah, now we are.
There's no way winning.
That's what I have to tellmyself in order to accept
anything.
I'm not going to get my hopesup.
There's uh is there any scenariowhere we can make the playoffs?

SPEAKER_01 (00:46):
No, we had to win and the Packers had to lose.
Yeah, that's what I think.
So we are statistically rightnow out of the playoffs.
So we're just gonna start thisBoss Two Boys episode off with
some sports, and I'm gonna makea case, and you can fight me on
it, or you can disagree, or youcan agree with me.
It doesn't really matter becausestats don't lie.

(01:07):
Am I wrong?

SPEAKER_02 (01:08):
No.
Stats don't lie.
Okay.

SPEAKER_01 (01:13):
Who would you consider one of the best
all-time NFL quarterbacks otherthan Tom Brady?

SPEAKER_00 (01:22):
I was gonna say Tom Brady.

SPEAKER_01 (01:23):
Other than Tom Brady, who's one of the first
ones that come to your mind?
The best quarterbacks of alltime?
Yep.
Fran Tarkenden.
More modern.
I'm talking like that wewatched.
Like when you talk aboutquarterbacks that you and I were
able to watch.
Brett Favre.
Okay, who else?
Aaron Rodgers.
Okay.
Donovan McNabb.

(01:44):
Okay.

SPEAKER_00 (01:45):
Arguably.

SPEAKER_01 (01:46):
Michael Vick, arguably.
I'd with m Michael Vick, likewith physical ability, I could
agree with that.
So I'm gonna throw out a namethat I'm I'm a huge fan of this
guy.
And I want you to just listen tothis and let me know what you
feel.
And I know that we're gonna havepeople that listen to this that

(02:06):
are gonna completely disagreewith me, and that's okay.
But I know people are upsetabout JJ McCarthy and how he
plays and how he has played,right?
Okay.
He's how many starts has he hadin the NFL?
Seven.
He's been he started he hasstarted seven games in the NFL.
Yep.
Okay.
Do you know what his stats arefor his first seven starts?

SPEAKER_00 (02:29):
I do not know.

SPEAKER_01 (02:31):
I mean cumulatively, no, I do not.
Okay, so he has a 52 or 54.2%completion percentage, ten
interceptions, passer rating of57.9, turnover worthy throws a
7.5 and a half, which is worstin the league, 32nd in the
league.
He's 2-4 as a starter.

SPEAKER_02 (02:49):
Okay.
So yards, not good.
Interceptions, not good.

SPEAKER_01 (02:57):
Okay.
Do you know what PeytonManning's stats were for his
first seven starts?
Peyton Manning in the NFL?
Probably worse than McCarthy's.
Okay.

SPEAKER_02 (03:08):
63.5 QBR passer rating.
1600 yards.

SPEAKER_01 (03:16):
Nine touchdowns.
So JJ has more touchdown passesthan Peyton Manning.
Than Peyton Manning.
In his first seven starts.
In his first seven starts.
And he had 14 interceptions.
Peyton Manning had 14 minutes.
Manning had 14 interceptions.
That's interesting.
His first seven starts in theNFL.
So for all these people thatthink that JJ McCarthy is just a

(03:37):
shit quarterback and we need toget rid of him right now, pump
the brakes.

SPEAKER_00 (03:41):
Oh yeah, I'm I'm there.
I am not, I have never I don'tthink we should get rid of him.
That's not my opinion at all.
But I definitely have heard thatopinion.
And I've been guilty of beingemotionally in the moment and
saying, God, this guy sucks ass.

SPEAKER_01 (03:55):
But I'm not saying he's Peyton Manning.
By any means, by any stretch, Iam not saying, and I am not cum
I'm not actually comparing himto Peyton Manning.
No, you're just saying.
I'm just saying that JJ McCarthyin his first seven NFL starts
has better stats than PeytonManning did with the Colts.

(04:16):
Now, do you know who the Coltshad on their team when Peyton
Manning was a rookie?
Marshall Falk was his runningback.
So he had a better running backthan JJ has because Aaron Jones
and Mason are nowhere near thetalent that Marshall Falk was.
Correct.
And he had a Hall of Fame widereceiver and Marvin Harrison.

(04:36):
Correct.
So you can't tell me that hedidn't have weapons to throw to.
Granted, not as good or as manyas JJ McCarthy has.
Correct.
But this is my argument for JJMcCarthy.
And I know we have people thatare going to really disagree
with me and they're going tothink that I'm comparing him to

(04:56):
Peyton Manning.
I'm not.
I'm just comparing the statsfrom their first seven starts.
That's my rant for the day.
JJ McCarthy played really welltoday.
He did.
He he did.
And the reason he played welltoday is because they slowed the
offense down.
They ran like 30 times.
Imagine that.

(05:17):
You think?
Imagine that.
I just they they made the gameplan so simple for him.
For a guy that doesn't have theexperience and doesn't have the
game sense yet, and the gamehasn't sped up for him yet.

SPEAKER_00 (05:34):
So Trevor and I talk about our the Vikings need to
run every week.
Every week.
Every week, Trevor and I talkabout this.
Run the damn ball.
And then we score, and thenwe're like, see what happens
when you run the ball?

SPEAKER_01 (05:49):
I d I just I I like that he committed to it because
you could tell that KOC was justscratching to throw the ball.

SPEAKER_00 (05:58):
Yeah, because he's a QB quarter.
He's a QB.
He's a you know he's aquarterback.

SPEAKER_01 (06:04):
He's a quarterback, and that's where he's a coach.
And that's fine.
But when you have a guy that'sas inexperienced and as you
know, as as as much strugglinghas been going on with McCarthy,
you can't do that.
You have to lean in on yourrunning game, and this was the
first week in however many weeksthat our offensive line was
healthy.
We had everybody, which helps.

(06:26):
And it it helps thatWashington's horseshit, they're
garbage.
That as well.
But even still, they're knownfor their run defense.
Like they have a really good rundefense.
Our d our defense, the MinnesotaVikings defense, is top ten in
the league in everything.
Yeah.
Harry played really well today.
Did you know that was the firsttouchdown we've scored on that

(06:48):
in like eight quarters?
Yeah, it's wild.
Which is insane.
And last week when Brosmerplayed, I mean you you can't
expect much from an undraftedguy out of the University of
Minnesota.
Like he's never he's never seenathletes like Seattle had.
Correct.

SPEAKER_02 (07:08):
So I mean I don't I I didn't get mad or upset with
that whole game.

unknown (07:14):
No.

SPEAKER_01 (07:15):
Anyway, like I said, JJ JJ's not Peyton Manning, not
yet.
I mean, maybe one day he couldbe.
That'd be awesome.
But in his in their first sevenstarts, he has better JJ has
better stats than PeytonManning.
That's in some aspects.
Isn't that crazy?
That is crazy.

(07:36):
Because Peyton Manning set therecord for interceptions by a
rookie.
He threw like 32 or someinterceptions.
He threw a stupid amount.
And then he went from a 3-13team to a 13-3 team.
He started a streak of like 12years with 10 or more wins.
Oh yeah.
With the cultures.

SPEAKER_00 (07:57):
They were a powerhouse when he was a
quarterback.

SPEAKER_01 (07:59):
Between him, Marvin Harrison, Reggie Wayne, there
was Mar Marshall Falk gottraded, but then they had Edrin
James.
Edrin James.

SPEAKER_00 (08:07):
I mean You're throwing out names I haven't
heard since like Madden 07.

SPEAKER_01 (08:12):
So it's it's definitely something that we can
build on.
And I and I know that JJ's inyear two, and Manning was a true
rookie.
But Manning never won an NCAAchampionship like JJ did either.
Truth.
Couldn't beat Florida.
Anyway, welcome to Boss Two Boysthis week.
I know we've skipped out on acouple weeks here because we've

(08:33):
been busy and doing stuff andlife's happening and much busy
all time.
All that kind of stuff.

SPEAKER_00 (08:39):
Winter's my overtime time at work, like my day job
work.
So and I I mean I've been kindof pushing the sauna stuff.
This week at gym's, we'resupposed to be there Tuesday.
We might swap that to Thursdaybecause that's the community
night light thing, night of thelights or whatever.

SPEAKER_01 (09:00):
Light the town or light the alright.

SPEAKER_00 (09:03):
So we were talking about switching it to Thursday
just because there's gonna bepeople out and about.
So we'll see.
I gotta let her know tomorrowwhat the plan is.

SPEAKER_01 (09:15):
Yeah, and you've got that, and then I started the
full swing into basketball now.

SPEAKER_00 (09:20):
Basketball.

SPEAKER_01 (09:22):
We played down at the target center yesterday and
won, and then went to theTimberwolves game with the girls
with all the the whole team.
So nice.
That was fun.
It was a good game to be at.

SPEAKER_02 (09:32):
That's for sure.
They're another team thatthey're just underperforming
right now.

SPEAKER_01 (09:38):
Ant is struggling a little bit.

SPEAKER_00 (09:41):
But I thought the game went well the other night.
Last night, two nights ago.
Whenever they last night.
Well, we played last night,yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (09:47):
We were down as many as like 16 or whatever and came
back and won.

SPEAKER_00 (09:51):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (09:52):
I think that was an audition to trade for James
Harden.

SPEAKER_00 (09:55):
Really?

SPEAKER_01 (09:55):
Yep.

SPEAKER_00 (09:56):
Interesting.

SPEAKER_01 (09:56):
I don't know what they're gonna give up.
Cause the I mean, I I wouldn't Iwouldn't let McDaniels go.
I wouldn't let Nas go.
I wouldn't let you know who theycan have?
They can have fucking RudyGobert.
Rudy.
Rudy Gobert is fucking useless.
He's he's a gazelle.
He's a flamingo.

(10:17):
An ostrich.
He is useless.
Uselessless.
Tits on a bull.
I just don't understand how youcan be seven four and that inapt
to offense.

SPEAKER_00 (10:30):
If I was seven football dunk ball.

SPEAKER_02 (10:33):
Do you know what I would be doing if I was seven
foot four?
Not this.
I don't know, probably not this.

SPEAKER_00 (10:43):
Do you know how hard it would be to have a vehicle at
7?
Do you know how hard well see7'4 is crazy?
Who is the tallest?
This is way off topic.
Kind of not, but at the sametime.
Who is the tallest NFL player toever play in the NFL?

SPEAKER_02 (10:57):
6'10.
Too tall Jones.
Deacon Too Tall Jones.

SPEAKER_00 (11:04):
Richard Sly in 1967 on the Raiders.
He was seven feet.
He was a defensive tag call.
Could you imagine trying toblock that guy?
Could you I I well I mean thatwould be equivalent.
Well, I guess I'm fairly at 6'3.

(11:24):
At 6'3, when we were doingdrills in college, I had to
block a guy that was 6'8.
And and so, you know, afive-inch difference.
You figure if somebody thetallest guy in the NFL besides
seven feet is six seven, sixeight, then that's yeah, that's
the same difference.
Yeah.
But still, I mean, like ifyou're talking, if you're

(11:47):
talking like we had a guy on ouron our college squad that was
like six even, and he was aguard.

SPEAKER_01 (11:53):
Trying to block a defensive.

SPEAKER_00 (11:55):
Trying to block somebody 12 feet tall or 12
inches taller than you would beway more difficult.
Defenders are notorious forusing their arms.
Like, so that that's the key tobeing a good defensive tackle.
And if your arms are fucking Howdo you get in on a guy like 10
inches longer than the offensivelinemen's?
You you got an easy advantagethere.

SPEAKER_01 (12:14):
You just shoot legs at that point, but even still, I
don't even know.
By the time you get to him, likehe's pushing your face into the
ground.
Oh, yeah.
It's over.
There's there's no chance.
It's over.
I don't even know how you woulddo that.
And I'm 5'9.
Back to reality.
Oh, there goes gravity.
I guess there's some kid that Idon't know, he's a high school
football player.
He's one of the top-rankedlinemen, offensive, defensive

(12:38):
linemen in the country.
He's he's like 6'10.
Oh.
Yeah.
Which is That's massive.
That's huge.
That's a massive human being.

SPEAKER_02 (12:47):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (12:48):
That's that's massive.
That's a large man.
I mean, you look at some ofthose left tackles and right
tackles, they they stand aboutsix between six six and six
eight in the NFL.
Tackles, tackles.

SPEAKER_00 (13:00):
Guards are typically anywhere from 2'1 to 6'5.
Yeah.
I mean, there you don't see alot of guards that are 6'4, 6'5.
Most of them are 6'1, 6'2.
And those tackles that are 6'1,6'2 in college normally get
converted into guards.
Yeah.
You cannot be less than like 6'5in the NFL if you're going to
play an offensive tackle.

SPEAKER_01 (13:19):
Just because of the arms, lengths, or even you know,
you can put them at center.
Well, they're shorter.
Yeah.
Centers are between 6 feet and6'3.

SPEAKER_00 (13:26):
Yeah.
You can't have tall centers ortall guards because the
quarterback can't see.
Right.
I mean, that's right.
That's you would definitely seeif if there was a seven-foot
quarterback, you would be ableto see a six foot eight, six
foot nine center and guard.

SPEAKER_01 (13:42):
So Ryan Mallet, I believe his name was, played for
Arkansas, played for thePatriots.
I think he was like six, six,six, seven played quarterback.
Okay.
Massive man.
Cam Newton's 6'6.
So even a guy that's CamNewton's size would have a hard
time seeing over something likethat.
Like Matt Cleal played tacklefor him for us.
Yeah.

(14:02):
And he was like 6'6, 6'7.
Like that's a massive man.
Big boys.
I just could not imagine.
Anyway, back to theTimberwolves.
Yeah, it was a good game lastnight.
McDaniels, I mean, he had agreat game.
Randall had a good game.
But like I said, I think I thinkit was an audition for James

(14:23):
Harden to see if we wanted himor not.
There's a bunch of rumors goingaround between him, Trey Young,
John Morant, Lamello Ball, andthere was one other guy that I
saw.

SPEAKER_02 (14:38):
I don't know.
I don't know what you give upfor someone like that for a
point guard.

SPEAKER_01 (14:42):
Because for as useless as I think Rudy is
offensively, defensively, he'she's a four-time defensive
player of the year.
He's an asset on defense.
I mean, you can't deny that.
It's he's just so frustrating onoffense.
D Vincenzo didn't do shit lastnight till he hit that big shot
at the end.
And I love Di Vincenzo.
I really, really do.

(15:03):
He's probably one of my best ormy favorite players on the team.
Uh, but he'd probably be one ofthe guys that would be in that
deal.
Rob Dillingham, Shannon,something like that.

SPEAKER_03 (15:14):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (15:15):
But yeah, we got to sit up in section 222 last
night, way up the rafters.
Yeah.
Which was fun.
Kids loved it.
Oh, for sure.
Gianna had a blast.
She was nervous to go up allthat distance and then have to
sit there and look pretty damnhigh and look down, but she's
very high up there.
She acclimated to it well.
Gav liked it.

(15:35):
Our high school team ended upwinning by 16, which was a big
win for us.
Sweet.
Yep.
It was cool standing on thetarget center floor.
Like I I never was able to dothat as a player or a coach yet,
so that was really cool.

SPEAKER_02 (15:50):
Yeah.
Traffic was fine.
Got in and out real quick.

SPEAKER_01 (15:57):
One of the players, her parents bought uh Vikings
tickets for today too.
Oh.
So they got to go to theTimberwolves game.

SPEAKER_00 (16:05):
We got a good game today, at least.
Do you know how much ticketswere for the Vikings game today?
Were they cheap or expensive?

SPEAKER_01 (16:10):
Like$55.

SPEAKER_00 (16:12):
That's cheap.

SPEAKER_01 (16:14):
Like for I'd say lower level almost the whole way
up.

SPEAKER_00 (16:19):
Like the concourse area?

SPEAKER_01 (16:21):
Well, just just below it.
Yeah.
Like those seats just below theconcourse area.
$85.

SPEAKER_00 (16:27):
Yeah, that's dirt cheap.
Well, that's because they suck.
Yeah, our fans probably gave up.
I gave up.
I mean, I'm I knew it I knew wehad to win and the Packers had
to lose, and I was like, I'm notgonna rely on the Packers losing
because that's just how itworks.
It was a good game.
Yeah.
The Packers game?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I watched I watched more of thatgame than I watched the Vikings

(16:50):
game.
Because that game mattered forus.
If the Vikings would have lost,it would have been whatever
we're done for sure.
But I was watching the Packersgame and I've never cheered for
the Bears before, but I washoping they could pull it off.
Well and and if that throw, hehad the guy open in the end
zone, he did.
It was just a bad throw becausehe was running and off his back

(17:10):
foot.
It was just a bad throw.

SPEAKER_03 (17:14):
I hate that could have been good.

SPEAKER_01 (17:15):
You know who we get to play next week?
No.
The dumbest fucking team in theleague.
The Dallas Cowboys.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 (17:23):
Fuck yeah, that's an automatic win.
Sunday night football.
Hey, I think I I uh my fantasyyear is in shambles.
Mine's shit.
My I mean I was so at my workleague, I was champ last year.
I am going to be the bottom thisyear.

SPEAKER_01 (17:40):
Yeah, that's how I was in the Antonity League this
year with my uncle and cousins.
I won it last year and I think Ilost today.
I think my team only scored like48 points.

SPEAKER_00 (17:48):
Oh my god.
Yeah, I've had terrible.

SPEAKER_01 (17:52):
Which whatever.
I'm not if there's no moneyinvolved, I'm not as competitive
or worry about it as much.

SPEAKER_00 (17:58):
Just the bragging rights.
I don't even care about themoney portion of the work
league.
I just care so it's the that'sthe more competitive one I'm in.

SPEAKER_01 (18:06):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 (18:06):
The other fun league I'm in, I'm winning.
I think I'm beating Chad thisweek.

SPEAKER_01 (18:11):
And I think you're middle of the pack with our
league?
Yeah, somewhere like that.
As long as my sister-in-law'shusband doesn't win, I don't
give a shit.

SPEAKER_02 (18:19):
Yeah.
That's all I care about.
I hope Gav wins it.
That'd be cool.
That'd be cool to see Gav winit.
I'll buy him a little trophy.
Fucker.
What else is going on in thesound world?

SPEAKER_01 (18:34):
Anything else?
Anything new?

SPEAKER_00 (18:35):
No, it's too goddamn cold for me to do anything in
the shop right now.
So just waiting.
I have three rentals over theweek Christmas week area.
I had my first couple sales ofthe bench butter on Etsy.

(18:57):
Nice.
So I s I still actually have tosend one out.
One I sent out last week.
Tried to get to the post officeyesterday, but I looked at the
hours and they were open tillnoon or two or whatever it was,
but the box drop was only opentill ten or something.
So that's weird.
I gotta drop it off tomorrow.
Hopefully.

(19:18):
Luckily, my shipping date is soEtsy gives you like a ship buy
date, and it's December 8th.
So as long as I get it inDecember 8th, yeah.
That's good.
Where are you shipping thisstuff off to?
Washington.
Really?
Yeah.
Washington State?
A couple different people fromWashington State purchased a two

(19:42):
pack and a three pack.
So that's it was kind of cool.
I was excited about it.
Yeah, that's hopefully you know,and if that takes off, that's a
little it's it's easy and anddifficult to manage at the same
time because if it it it's allin how much what do I want to
spend up front.
On shipping supplies.

(20:03):
Because right now I literallyjust if I get an order, I go buy
a single box and pack it andship it.
Right.
But if it is going to take offand I'm going to get whatever,
we'll say 10 orders a month, I'mnot going to buy one single
boxes for those.
You know, I'd rather order inbulk, but how much is too much,
how little is too little.

(20:24):
I have a shipping printer andeverything, so that's cool.
I print off the shipping labelright at my desk and that's
pretty neat.

SPEAKER_02 (20:40):
It's cold as it's cold as hell.
It's cold.

SPEAKER_00 (20:45):
It's cold out.
It's 11 below right now here.
Supposed to be colder.
I'm supposed to get some snowtomorrow or Tuesday for sure.
Hopefully there's enough snowwhere I can play around with my
plow and snow blowers.

SPEAKER_02 (21:01):
Yeah, we had to buy a new furnace.
Really?

SPEAKER_01 (21:04):
Yeah, we just got it installed last week.

SPEAKER_02 (21:06):
Oh nice.
It was less expensive than Ianticipated, actually.
Which was nice.

SPEAKER_01 (21:13):
But we always go through the same like shop that
put the original one in thehouse.
So and he's been to our house acouple times, so it's it's
always been it's always been thesame guy, so they gave us not
not necessarily a deal, butdefinitely something that would

(21:33):
have not broken the bank.

SPEAKER_02 (21:36):
Yeah.
Oh man.

SPEAKER_01 (21:41):
I'm surprised you guys didn't didn't go to Tom and
Jerry's today.

SPEAKER_00 (21:45):

And butter.
And then Maya had something withmac and cheese.

(23:01):
Oh, shrimp.
Oh, and man, that shrimp wasbomb.
Really?
It was it's like grilledseasoned shrimp.
It's over a rice pilaf.
I'm not a big fan of the rice,but the shrimp was amazing.
And the mac and cheese is prettygood too.
I like rice pilaf.

SPEAKER_01 (23:16):
I don't know if I'd like that place's road house.

SPEAKER_00 (23:20):
I didn't like it.
I whatever seasoning they use,meh.
It just it tasted like it camefrom like a box.

SPEAKER_01 (23:27):
Probably did.

SPEAKER_00 (23:28):
Yeah.
But food-wise, I've been on atear lately.
I made so Maya requested loadedbaked potato soup.
Found a really good recipe forthat.
It was awesome.
Very simple.
In a crock pot, you just takelike a bag of the Southern style
cube hash browns, a half a bagof bacon bits, a block of cream

(23:53):
cheese, a few cups of cheddarcheese, a box of chicken broth,
and a can of chicken, cream ofchicken soup.
That's it.
Yeah.
Set it, forget it, four hours onhigh, come back to it, and it's
it it's better the second day.
It's better after after it coolsoff and then you reheat it.
It's all the flavor is there.

(24:15):
It's so good.
That's only how it is with anykind of soup.
I'm drooling right now.

SPEAKER_01 (24:19):
I always do cheeseburger soup.

SPEAKER_00 (24:20):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (24:21):
I love that one.

SPEAKER_00 (24:22):
And then I made a pile of chili today.
Oh.
Because my grandma and I hadchili at Val's last week.
It was chili week at Val's.
Yeah, I missed you by like 10minutes.
Oh, really?
When I went there, yeah.
Yeah.
So we had We had the Val's uhtheir traditional chili.
We went on Wednesday, I think.
It was traditional chili night.

(24:43):
So we had the traditional chili,and then I was going shopping
today and I stopped at mygrandma's on the way to see if
she needed anything.
She's like, I'm gonna make somechili.
And I was like, you know what?
I'm gonna make some chili too.
So my grandma making chili forherself only used a pound of
ground beef.
I used four pounds of groundbeef.
Made a massive pot of chili.

(25:04):
I mean do you like your chilihot?
Like spicy hot?
Yeah, but I can't make make ithot here because other people
have to eat it.
Like, do you like it hot whereyou're like sweating hot?
Or just like tickles the back ofyour throat.
Well, what I made, I thinkactually I enjoy what I made.

(25:26):
It's got a little bit, just alittle bit of spice.
It's not like your wife wouldprobably say it's spicy, but
it's not at all.
But it's not at all spicy.
Because I use I and actuallythis is my favorite chili I've
ever made, and I just kind ofwhipped it up.

(25:47):
I got the diced tomatoes,crushed tomatoes, chili beans,
dark and light kidney beans,green pepper, serrano pepper,
jalapeno pepper, paprika, chilipowder, cumin, and salt and
pepper.

(26:08):
But how I served it, you take myrice, my Mexican rice, you put
it in the bottom of the bowl,and then you put the chili on
the top of that, heat that up,sprinkle the cheese.
If you're a cracker person, youcan still use your crackers, but
the rice is there too, so it'sThat sounds delicious.
It is de freaking licious.

SPEAKER_01 (26:29):
Well, people in Texas say beans don't belong in
chili.
Fucking white people.
I disagree.
You know how white you have tobe to not like beans?
I like the beans and the chili.
See, my grandpa used to make itwhere you needed a roll of paper
towel to eat it because it wasso hot.
Oh, really?

SPEAKER_00 (26:48):
And a half a gallon of milk.
It depends on what you put init.
Like uh there's different styleschilies, too.
Like, I I could make like asouthwestern style chili with
black beans and corn as opposedto the peppers and the pinto or
lime.
Kidney.
Fuck.
Kidney and chili beans.
Like the southwestern chili, andthen my wife's fucking chicken

(27:11):
chili.
White chili is not chili, it'schicken goop with beans in it,
is what it is.
I don't like white chilies.
Really?
I'm not a fan because it's tooyou know how much cheese goes
into white chili?
Yeah, I've made it.
It's too soupy cheesy bullshitfor me.

SPEAKER_01 (27:26):
My wife likes it because of her acid issue.
Like she likes the white beanchili.
I I prefer normal traditionalchili.

SPEAKER_00 (27:37):
Whereas, I mean Southwest chili, yeah, there's a
spin on traditional, but it'sstill tradition, it's still
chili powder, right?
It's still ground beef, beans,corn, you know.
I like that.
You can do like sweet chili, youcan do hot chili.
If if I were to do hot chili, Iwould make it the same way as I
made this, except I would addcrushed red pepper, and instead

(28:01):
of using two serranos, I wouldprobably use two habaneros.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 (28:06):
So it'd be one or two habaneros, two jalapenos,
four green bell peppers.

SPEAKER_00 (28:17):
And I intend on experimenting more with this
chili recipe because this turnedout really good, and I think I
could add some more vegetablesbecause I like veggies.

SPEAKER_01 (28:27):
I just like regular chili, like the traditional
chili.
Well, that's what I grew up on,and that's what my mom always
made.
That's what I always made.
So I mean it was always a kindof a staple thing in our house,
especially in the winter.
And I'm a soup whore.
I like soup.
Jimmy made dumpling soup todaywith his turkey stock, and oh my

(28:50):
god.

SPEAKER_02 (28:52):
I just I I love that shit.

SPEAKER_01 (28:56):
I don't know what the hell he puts in his dumpling
mix, but he says he lets it sitlike a day and then he puts
flour in it, and then he makesand he mixes it all up to make
the paste for the dumplings.

SPEAKER_02 (29:09):
It's so good.
So good.
Twenty four days until we willbe in Jamaica.

SPEAKER_01 (29:20):
You're gonna grow your hair out and put some
dreads in?
Yamon.

SPEAKER_00 (29:23):
Yamon, you gotta wear the Bob Marley hat wig
thing.
I I isn't that like isn't thatlike cultural appropriation?
Shouldn't I not do that?
Something like that.

SPEAKER_01 (29:34):
Something like that.
So moving on to some news topicshere.
I've got news topics for thethis last week, and I kind of
just wanted to make it light,make it funny, make it something
that we don't have to get tooserious about.

I thought it was funny.
That's a big tongue.

SPEAKER_01 (31:15):
That's a massive tongue for a dog, for anything.
A black bear roommate, a man inSouthern California discovered
he had an unwanted house guest,a 500-pound black bear.

SPEAKER_00 (31:29):
I watched the video of that.

SPEAKER_01 (31:31):
He's taking up residence in a crawl space under
his home.

SPEAKER_00 (31:33):
Oh, no, different video.
I saw a video of a guy thatheard the bear break into his
house.
Oh, really?
And then he he grabbed his gunbecause I mean bears aren't
quiet.
So he thought his house wasbeing like legit broken into.
And there's it's a video of hiscamera, and you he's he's got an

(31:54):
a sporting rifle.
And he waited.
He's got a sporting rifle with aflashlight attached to the
foregrip.
And you can see him look downthe hallway, and then he turns
the flashlight, and the bear islike coming from the kitchen
into the hallway, and he's likePow Pow Pow Pow Pow.
Oh, obviously, the bear diedinstantly, but I well like to

(32:17):
have that happen would that'swhy I have dogs, right?
Well, yeah, dogs would neverallow that to happen.
Like, I would never be startledawake by somebody crashing a
window.
I would be startled awake byheadlights at the end of my
driveway.
I'd be startled awake by afigure.
There's a bin of bear at likeone in the morning in my yard

(32:37):
before, and the dogs goabsolutely ballistic, and I'm up
and I'm like, Well, thank youfor that, because I guess that's
why I have you.
I can't get mad at them becauseI like I like the the security.

SPEAKER_01 (32:53):
Makes you aware of shit that's happening.
The next one, Man Misses His OwnWedding.
An Indian man missed his ownwedding after his indie go
flight was heavily delayed witha video of the incident going
viral online.
Well, that sucks.
Maybe it was for the best.
Who knows?
Eagle drops cat on windshield.

(33:13):
A motorist in North Carolinacalled 911 to report a bald
eagle had dropped a cat throughtheir windshield.

SPEAKER_00 (33:21):
Odd use of 911.
Very odd.
I don't think I would havecalled 911 on that one.

SPEAKER_01 (33:26):
Probably would have called like a tow company.
Or animal control.
Or the owner of the cat if ithad a toe.

SPEAKER_00 (33:34):
I mean, yeah.
I'm not calling, I don't thinkit's in the case.
Unless somebody was hurt.

SPEAKER_01 (33:38):
Yeah, if if somebody was hurt, that's fine, but I
just know with with news lately,keeping it a little light is
good.

SPEAKER_00 (33:44):
All the bullshit that's going on and yeah, I my
I'm so disconnected from newsover the weekends because I
don't I only listen to the newson your way to work.
On my way to and from workMonday through Thursday.

SPEAKER_01 (34:00):
I just there's so much difference going on in our
country and the world with newsand politics and right or wrong,
left and right, up and down.
I mean, it's so it's it's soyou're either one side or the
other.
There's no middle ground.

(34:21):
It's hard to talk to peopleabout opinions and views and
things like that without gettingscrutinized or torn down or
name-called, no matter what sideyou're on.
And I just don't have time forthat shit.

SPEAKER_00 (34:35):
Well, a lot of people are really passionate
about their values.
And that's okay, and that'sthat's okay.
However, I will I I like tochallenge people just to be
like, they're your values tohave, they're not my values to
have.
Right?
Like you can have your values,you can think what you want.
And then everybody, I I just Ihave to make this point because

(34:57):
it's very relevant to the peoplethat kind of resonate with how I
speak, usually.
You can have your own values.
We're never trying to take yourvalues away.
That is exactly what we areagainst, right?
We are against trying to takeyour values away.
But the largest point ofcontention is that you you want

(35:24):
everybody's life to becontrolled by your values.
And that is not fair.
And that's where that's whereyou turn the argument around and
say, well, your values areimpeding on my freedom.
No, no, no.
Nobody is forcing you to havegender-affirming care.
Nobody's forcinggender-affirming care to happen
to you or your family.

(35:44):
Nobody is forcing you to marry asame-sex person.
Nobody's forcing you to do that.
If you disagree with it, great,avoid it.
Stay away from it.
And I am a hundred percent onboard with some of the rhetoric
about being too far on the otherend of the spectrum where it's

(36:07):
in your face all the time, likeobnoxiously, obnoxiously in
people's faces with a wholebunch of stuff.
But dressing in drag is notobnoxiously in people's faces.
It is it like there aren'trandom drag queens that go out
and find target people thatdisagree with them and and like

(36:30):
bug them.
That's a very, very, very, very,very, very little occurring
incident.
And so it's like back to sorry,I got on a tangent.
It's like we don't want to takeyour values away, but we expect
that that in return you will nottake the values of other people

(36:52):
away.
And again, you can live yourlife the way you want.
You just can't legislate basedon your personal values.
And again, the argument to thatis, well, you're legislating
based on your per your personalvalues.
And it's not, no, no, becauseI'm not part of that, I'm not

(37:12):
part of the LGBTQ community.
I'm an ally.
Let me know if you need helpwith anything, you know, right?
I'm here for you.
I I like listening to people.
But it's like, I'm not a memberof that community.
I'm advocating the members ofthat community that are that are
deep, deep into that communitynormally aren't out there

(37:33):
screaming and hollering No, theonly the biggest problem they
have, the biggest problem theyhave is that the place that they
live, the people who run theplace they live are actively
making laws that make it harderfor them to live.
It's a lot like civil rights.

(37:54):
Exactly it is civil rights.
It is, yes.

SPEAKER_01 (37:56):
Well that the the civil rights.
You're talking about the civilrights.
The civil rights movement thathappened in the 60s.
Like that's that's kind of whereit's getting.
That's exactly that's what itis.
And I'm not one, I don't I don'tcare if a person is in that
community.
Does not bother me.
I I know people that are in it,I know I know people that have

(38:20):
recently gotten in it, I knowpeople that have been in it for
a long time, and they're notones to go out there and wave
their flag and get it in yourface.
Like they want to be left thefuck alone, and they want to be
able to do what they want to dowithout being impeded or out
without being judged and thingslike that.
And then there's the other flipside of that where it's they're
in your face.

(38:41):
Yes.
No matter who you are, they'rein your face.
You're taking like it could beme and you walking down the
road, and they're in our face,you you're taking our rights,
and you're doing this, andyou're doing that.
So, I mean, it's on both sideswith that.
I don't know.
I will I will But I do agreewith you.

SPEAKER_00 (38:56):
Yes, and I I and I I I do have to say with that, it's
like there are crazy people inevery every single demographic.
Absolutely, every no matterwhere you're from, who you are,
what your beliefs are, there arepsychos in every single
demographic.
And the guy that's preachingfire and brimstone on the street

(39:18):
corner with you know, like thathe the guy that's open carrying
down downtown streets with bigUSA flag and saying, Don't tread
on me.
That these are fanatics, right?
There are fanatics with everysingle group of people.
And you what what mass media hasdone is allowed us, meaning the

(39:45):
majority of people were I I dareI say the word normal people in
every demographic.
I'm not saying like straightwhite cis man is normal.
I'm saying the quote unquotenormal people, meaning non
fanatic, non fanatic.
On extremist people, averageperson.
In every group, the mass mediahas convinced us that there are

(40:09):
way more of the fanatics thanthere actually are on both
sides.
And there isn't.
And there isn't.
The mass media's job is to takea molehill and make a mountain
out of it.
Oh, for sure.
Yep.
And so that by default causeseverybody to freak out and fight
about things because we thinkthe end is nigh and this is like

(40:32):
this is let's get down tobusiness right now because it's
gonna be it's gonna be bonkersin in a little while, you know,
and it's like it's not thatdeep.
It's not that uh urgent rightnow.
There are certain things thatare happening that are that
urgent.
I think from from an objective,non-partisan point of view,

(40:55):
there are a lot of thingshappening right now where
severely underqualified peopleare making decisions that have
ramifications that are gonnalast for decades because we're
not we're I'm not gonna get intospecifics with that.
I'm just saying there are somegrossly underqualified people

(41:17):
making decisions that are gonnalast a long, long, long time for
the people that they impact.

SPEAKER_01 (41:23):
And it's a bummer.

SPEAKER_00 (41:24):
And it's a bummer.

SPEAKER_01 (41:25):
It just seems like it's uh it's like the old
fisherman.
I caught a two foot two twinchtwo-inch fish, and the next
person, well, with no it was asix-inch fish.
Well, then it's a twelve, andthen it's a sixteen, and then
you know, bigger, bigger,bigger, bigger, and that's kind
of what they're trying to do.
They're trying to one-up eachother.

SPEAKER_00 (41:44):
And I think I touched on that.
I don't know if I was talking onhere or talking to somebody
else, but it's all right, Imight have been talking to my
fucking self in my car.
I don't know.
Could have it could have been aconversation with myself.
But it's like, yeah, you're likeone-upping, you're you're just
it's just a big pissing contest,and it doesn't have to be.

(42:07):
And and I feel like our wholepolitical climate, every single
time I hear a politician talk,it's like you don't have to do
that.
You just kind of talk to us liketalk to us like you're
presenting.
Don't talk to us like you'refighting or arguing or making a
point.
Just talk to us, present theinformation, present your stance

(42:29):
on the issue, present yourargument for the solution to the
problem that we all have, andthen that's it.
Then shut the fuck up and letthe next guy talk.
And it's like, I, you know, Ijust I've I'm so over these
politicians going we have to wehave to take this back because
it's so bad, and and you know,it's it's like one side make

(42:53):
America great again, one side nokings.
It's like a like yes, there aredire needs for both sides of the
political spectrum, but that isthat is a that is a fabricated
problem that the media and therich people have created, so we

(43:14):
will all get further and furtherapart, and they can just suck
all of the money out of everypart of the lower, middle, and
middle upper class.
And that's uh you can say that'sliberal fucking propaganda, but
uh it is not liberal propaganda.
The rich continue to get richer,and we don't.

(43:37):
Where does all the money go?
Every bottle of soap you buy,every bottle of every tube of
toothpaste you buy, every pieceof fruit you buy, everything you
buy, unless you buy from farmersmarkets at your in your local
community or local co-ops orlocal grocery stores, even if

(43:59):
you do buy from local grocerystores, they sell brand name
items.
I mean, the money all goesthere.
And then it never comes backhere because there's what do
companies use it for?
Stock buybacks.
Who owns the stock?
Not the middle class.
Can't afford it.
Everybody says, Well, it's in my401k.
Yeah, your 401k is maybe ifyou're a you know, if you're a

(44:22):
middle-aged, relativelysuccessful individual, your 401k
might be between 400,000 and 1.5million.
Maybe.
If you're lucky.
I'm saying if you're arelatively successful
middle-aged adult that's workedsince you were 18 to 20 years
old, your 401k might be 400 to1.5 million.

(44:44):
That is literally like that isone transaction of stock for
somebody that I'm talking about.
The people that I'm talkingabout, 400,000 to 1.5 million is
literally what they what theyday trade with.

SPEAKER_01 (44:59):
So I was watching The Last Dance, and that's the
Michael Jordan Chicago Bullsdocumentary.
They're talking about hisgambling stuff, and they were
talking about how he was makinglike$10,000 bets and this and
that.
And the one of the guys that'son there is like So to Michael
Jordan, betting ten thousanddollars on something is like you
going to a blackjack tablebetting ten dollars.

(45:20):
Yeah, he's got it.
Yeah, like that's the analogy Ican use.
A hundred percent.
Yeah, like a million dollars toa rich guy, uh, who cares who it
is, is a hundred dollars in ourpocket.
Yeah, that's the equivalency.
That's that's pretty much whatit is.
Yeah, and it's it's crazy withthat because you watch guys like

(45:43):
Elon Musk billions and billionsof dollars, all he would have to
do is donate a a third or aquarter of his annual income,
and it would solve the hungercrisis in this country.
A hundred percent or thehomeless crisis.
Whatever in this country.

SPEAKER_00 (45:58):
Whatever problem you want to pick, you can solve it.
I mean I mean, what was the costto completely alleviate all
student debt up to 2016?
The cost was like$1.6 trillion.
And Elon Musk is slated toreceive a$1 trillion bonus if he
achieves some certain things inthe next four years or something
like that.

(46:19):
Yeah.
So, like, one man is going toget 80% of what it would have
taken to completely eliminatestudent debt in the entire
country.
What do you even do with allthat money?
You be a dick face and youfucking act weird and fucking go
nuts.
Sorry, I know he's supposedly onthe spectrum, but he is

(46:43):
dangerous.

SPEAKER_01 (46:45):
I just I don't I can't I can't fathom having that
much money.
I I I just it it doesn'tregister with me.

SPEAKER_00 (46:56):
I wouldn't be able to fathom it because I would
kill myself.
In a good like I I wouldliterally do too much and die.
I would myself.
Not not actively like with a gunor with drugs or bleep out the
word make a note to bleep outthe word kill.
I can't you that's againstcommunity guidelines.

SPEAKER_01 (47:18):
I j I just I can't imagine having that much money.
Like, what do you do?
Like he doesn't even doanything.

SPEAKER_00 (47:25):
I never want to imagine may hope hope maybe
he'll try bringing himself toouter space and the then he'll
be gone forever, maybe someday.
Or maybe he'll try or something.
I don't know.

SPEAKER_02 (47:41):
You need to take that out too.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (47:48):
No, no, probably not a good idea.
Well, that went completelysideways on me.

SPEAKER_00 (47:53):

that I wrote down, and there wasa shitload of them.
I completely forgot.
In our last tournament we did,it was Miracle and remember the
Titans that were in thechampionship round, and they're

(54:01):
both Disney live action movies.
So I'm just gonna go throughthese and I'll tell you why I
have them, and then you can tellme if you like them.
And I did them like as a series,not as a singular movie for some
of them, because some of themhad multiple movies.
Holy shit.
Sorry.
So the first one that I saw thatI obviously I enjoyed as a

(54:23):
child, Honey, I shrunk the kids.
Rick Moranis.

SPEAKER_00 (54:26):
I could a phenomenal movie.

SPEAKER_01 (54:28):
I completely forgot that it was even a Disney movie.
Great movie.
First one was good, second onewas okay, and then one of them
was like Honey, I blew up thekids or whatever, and the baby
attacked the town or whatever.
But the first one is phenomenal,absolutely phenomenal.
Obviously, the Mighty Duckmovies.
Those are staple from ourchildhood, not just because they

(54:49):
were based in Minneapolis, butthey were just phenomenal
movies.
This one always was one of myfavorites as a kid.
Homeward Bound.
Mm-hmm.
With the dogs and the cat.
I love Homeward Bound.
Was it Michael J.
Fox was one of the dogs?

SPEAKER_02 (56:37):

honestly.

SPEAKER_01 (56:45):
Then there's these guys that robbed a bank, and he
found a blank check on theground, wrote a number in it,
cashed it, and bought a house,had a party, ran out of money,

Johnny Tsunami.

SPEAKER_01 (59:32):
Johnny Tsunami.

SPEAKER_02 (59:33):
Ey Pono.

SPEAKER_01 (59:36):
And the last one that I wrote Urchins.
Because I was getting a littlerushed from my wife at the time.
And I watched this moviewhenever it was on.
And when I first got DisneyPlus, I probably watched it four
or five times in a row.
Brink.
Brink.
Love it.
Brink got me into rollerblading,got me into wanting to do all
the jumps and the half pipes,and that's how I hurt myself a

(59:57):
lot.
But that was kind of the listthat I Wrote down for Disney
movies, and I'm still a suckerfor for a live action Disney
movie non-remake.
Oh, absolutely.
So, I mean, like you you can'tgo wrong with a lot of those,
and I and I didn't research itany more than that, but that was

(01:00:18):
kind of what we were gonna dolast time, and I know we were
gonna do top five for each, soif I had to name a top five out
of these movies in no particularorder, Mighty Ducks would be on
there, three Musketeers would beon there, heavyweights would be
on there.

(01:00:40):
I would probably have to putAngels in the outfield on there
and Pirates of the Caribbean.
And this is without Miracle andRemember the Titans.
Yes, obviously.
Because we did say before thatwe were gonna go without those.
So those would those would be myfive.
Three I could watch, I could sitdown and watch the three
musketeers right now.
I'll probably do it tonight whenI go home when I'm watching

(01:01:01):
film.
Because I do have to do thatwhen I get home.
Like my kids watch a lot of theother things on the Disney
Channel.
Like, I could have put what thehell was it, high school
musical.

SPEAKER_02 (01:01:20):
My kids watched all in this together.

SPEAKER_01 (01:01:25):
And you know, something like that.
Because my kids watch that.
They watch the zombie andwerewolf movie.
I don't remember what the hellthat's called, and like they're
big into the the Demon Huntermovie and all that music.
K-pop demon hunters.
Yeah, I just uh it is what itis, but I'm sure my parents and
your parents thought our movieswere fucking dumb when they

(01:01:46):
watched them or had to watchthem with us.
Oh, yeah.
The same way we think it'sstupid and what our kids watch
now.

SPEAKER_00 (01:01:51):
Although I've been told I should watch K-pop Demon
Hunters.

SPEAKER_01 (01:01:55):
No, no, you should not, because you're the type of
adult that's gonna love thatshit.
Of course I am and play thatmusic in your vehicle, and then
every time we come over for afire, we're gonna have to
listen.
I love the song.
Seriously.

SPEAKER_02 (01:02:07):
We're going up, up, up.

SPEAKER_01 (01:02:10):
Yeah.
Have you watched the TreyKennedy reel with that?
We need to watch that.
He thinks it's stupid at first,and then it cuts to him dancing,
learning the dance to it, whichis something that you and I
should do for prom.
We should do it and then go toprom and dance the song.

SPEAKER_02 (01:02:27):
Absolutely.

SPEAKER_01 (01:02:32):
A serial world record breaker ran a half a
marathon in Idaho while wearing137 t-shirts, adding 48 pounds
of weight.

SPEAKER_02 (01:02:40):
I don't know what that means.
Interesting.

SPEAKER_00 (01:02:45):
137 t-shirts.
Yeah.
Adding yeah, so that's how muchthe t-shirts weighed.

SPEAKER_01 (01:02:51):
Oh, I see.
I see.
Human rights to vegemite.
An Australian prisoner is suingfor his human right to be

Stolen infant Jesus, acontroversial infant Jesus icon
was stolen from a nativity scenein Brussels, Belgium.

(01:03:14):
Christmas tree for balloons.
A hotel in England constructed a25-foot-tall Christmas tree
using a hundred thousandballoons.

SPEAKER_02 (01:03:24):
Sweet.
So what do you think of thatlist?
Do you have any objections or doyou have anything that you want
to say about those movies?
I d I I said it already.
You said it already?
See.
Let's do Let's do this.

(01:03:47):
We're gonna see if there'sanything here.
Any new brackets that I canfigure out here?
Let's see.

(01:04:15):
Playing a game, sorry.
No, you're good.
I'm just I'm looking at a quickbracket if we can do one.
Just looking for something.
You're not much for ice cream.
Fries showdown, Pop Tarts,Oreos, fruits.

(01:04:39):
What else is there?
Oh wow.
Taco Bell menu?
Poper popular Italian food.
It's one for myself.
Chef stock photos?
That's stupid.
We are at 107, we could.

(01:05:00):
Whatever you want to do.
Rap.
Whatever you want to do.

SPEAKER_01 (01:05:04):
Netflix series.
Most attractive famous women.
Hottest actress bracket.

SPEAKER_02 (01:05:12):
No, I will say I was thinking about the doing where
we have the podcast and we'reconsistent.
Again.
Well, yes.
Until the Super Bowl.

(01:05:36):
And then we take time off.
So we have like like a splitseason, right?

SPEAKER_00 (01:05:42):
So it's like we do regular season football
September through February.
Regular season football andplayoff and Super Bowl.
So we start like we start LaborDay weekend or after Labor Day
weekend.

SPEAKER_02 (01:05:59):
We go till Valentine's Day.
And then February, March, April,May, free time.
And then we s maybe maybe evengo June instead of that way
summertime.

SPEAKER_00 (01:06:17):
I'm not working a lot of overtime.
I'm freer in the summer.
So if we do June throughFebruary and take March, April,
May off completely, have that asour off time.

SPEAKER_02 (01:06:31):
What when is basketball playoffs?
March.
And the championship March?

SPEAKER_00 (01:06:40):
Like for state?
Yeah.
No, like I'm talking like NBA.
Probably May, right?
Yeah.
Like that's what sucks about itis like that's why if you do
consistent sports podcasting,then we don't have to worry
about that.
Then we don't have to worryabout that.
I would because I'm totally inon NFL.

(01:07:04):
We can talk about NFL during NFLseason, but the basketball stuff
I'm like, meh.
Meh.
See here.
And like I said, if you want todo that, I will definitely edit
it for you.

SPEAKER_02 (01:07:19):
I'm trying to find when those playoffs start.
I think it's May.
Yeah.
But I'm thinking like we do Junethrough February for Boss Dew.
And maybe not even, maybe maybeeven just September through

(01:07:43):
February.

SPEAKER_00 (01:07:44):
We'll see, because I really want the saunas to to go
well.
Like I wanna build in thesummer.
Right.

SPEAKER_02 (01:07:55):
And and that will take up time as well, so we'll
see.
Because it said here the date ofthe playoffs begin.
April nineteenth is when theystart.

(01:08:21):
So game seven of the finals wason June it says.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (01:08:33):
That's such a crazy long ass season.
It just depends on how long theseries goes.
It depends on if the firstfucking round is seven games for
everybody.

SPEAKER_02 (01:08:51):
So I mean I I I like that idea.

SPEAKER_01 (01:08:53):
I mean, and that's fine.
Because I can I can do NBA andWNBA stuff on my own.
Yeah.
I like the idea of the SuperBowl thing.

SPEAKER_00 (01:09:03):
Like we could even live live stream the Super Bowl
be our like final finale for theseason.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (01:09:11):
That'd be cool.
I know my wife and whatnot aregonna want to be here, but we
could have Well, we could alwaysjust use the wireless mics.
We could do wireless mics, or wecould even we could do it in
here with like this with otherpeople in here.
I mean I don't have an issuewith that.

SPEAKER_00 (01:09:28):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (01:09:28):
I'm sure our wives that'd be fun.

SPEAKER_00 (01:09:30):
And we could set the camera up.
Right.
Could do a video live stream.

SPEAKER_01 (01:09:36):
We could do boards here.
Yeah.
Yeah, I like that idea.
And we could have guests everyonce in a while somebody pop in
and start talking.
That'd be cool.
Yeah, we should definitely dothat.
I like that idea.
I do, I do, I do.
Yeah, because then it splits itup with work, with the sauna
stuff, and then we can come backin whenever July June, end of

(01:09:59):
June.
June-ish.
Middle, mid, mid to end June,maybe July.
Whatever we feel like.
We could even we could honestlystart the weekend after 4th of
July.

SPEAKER_00 (01:10:08):
So back up.
Let's do we should actually dolike we should we can still
bullshit and talk about all thetopics for all the podcasts, but
we should have like alright,we're we're pretty much oriented
with football, and you can talk,you know, about basketball as
needed in this one.

(01:10:29):
September through February,football heavy with with our
brackets and and tier lists andwhatever.
But typically football heavy, alittle bit of bullshit, current
events, whatever, what we'redoing exactly now.

SPEAKER_02 (01:10:45):
Then in May or June, start just strictly golf heavy.

SPEAKER_00 (01:10:55):
Because we should go once a week and then we can talk
about our round, talk aboutgolf, talk about different tour
events that are happening.
Yep.
We can talk, we can do golf inthe summer, so football, golf,
and obviously all of it isintertwined, but I think we
should have like focus, focalpoints.

(01:11:18):
That'd be fun.
Yes.
Because I can talk golf all thetime.
I need to watch golf then too.
And we need to start swinging.
Yes.
Because I have that.

SPEAKER_01 (01:11:27):
I need to bring my clubs here.
I might store them here ifthat's not a problem.

SPEAKER_00 (01:11:30):
That's totally fine.

SPEAKER_01 (01:11:32):
I almost bought my wife a set of clubs.
Black Friday.
She talked me out of it.

SPEAKER_02 (01:11:37):
Why?

SPEAKER_01 (01:11:38):
I don't know.
We're not gonna go with that.
There was like they were like$230 at Dunham's.
Like they were fucking cheap.
Because fuck golfing with yourwife.
Seven, eight.
There's what?

SPEAKER_00 (01:11:47):

specifically.
Just fuck golfing with your wifein general.
Golf is not meant to be a couplesport.

SPEAKER_01 (01:11:59):
Well, she's like, well, if you buy me those clubs,
I mean you're gonna go golfingwith me more.

SPEAKER_00 (01:12:03):
Unless your name, unl unless your name is Grace
Karas, Paige Spearneck, CharlieHull.
Oh, sorry, Paige Speranic,Charlie Hull, or Nellie Corda.
Golf is not a couple sport.
But if your name is any ofthose, golf could be a couple
sport.
Just saying.

helps me because then I don'tget pissed off if we lose.
