But that's okay, see canny, see it's anti American that

Speaker 1 (00:57):

Speaker 2 (00:58):
It's been started.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
Let's go.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
Have you been watching the Olympics.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
I'm all in, I'm all in on the Olympics. It's
tape delayed. Nope, it's live.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
USA. Was the basketball?

Speaker 1 (01:13):
No, it wasn't.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
Middle of the Day ain't live.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Middle of the Day is live.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
Yeah, you're right, it is. Live. It's one o'clock at
night there.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Yeah, it's one hundred percent live.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
And when it's not live, it's primetime to ours is
the double No, No, I'm just telling you. I was
watching it all live, man, two hundred percent. Everything I've
watched was live. Are we live?

Speaker 1 (01:39):
Except for I did watch some stuff that wasn't live
late at night, and I'll we'll talk about it. Like
some of the stuff, I'm like, I don't know what's
going on, but this is amazing skin Amax.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
That stuff's all pre record.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
That is pre record. Uh, only fans, depends on what
you subscribe to.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
All right, we're gonna do it live. Arnold is off today.
He partied on Broadway all weekend. He will be back
on Wednesday. We oh the one, two three, So losers.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
What up, everybody? I'm lunchbox. I know the most about sports,
so I gave you the sports facts, my sports opinions
because I'm pretty much a sports.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
Genius, y'all. It's Sis and I'm from the North. I'm
in Alpha Male. I live on the North side of
Nashville with Baser. She was a Broadway girl. Took her
to the country. We have two point two acres thinking
about selling in the next couple of years, depending on
if the developers offer us what we want for our land.
It's between about a couple thousand and maybe a couple
hundred thousand. Still haven't decided exactly how much it is worth.

(02:36):
We do know it is some good ground. Over you, coach.
I got a little too in depth on the soil
and conservation of my property.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
I got a review on our Swerve podcast from Swerve
because he went and did Battle who is upstairs after
our podcast and I talked to Battle this morning. I
was like, hey, dude, what Swerve think? And Battle said,
Swerves quote, that was an interesting interview. Usually they know

(03:05):
a little bit about wrestling. That was it. That was
his synapsis of our interview.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
Just like I told my people this weekend, I'm not
good at directions and I'm not good at wrestling interviews.
Those are the two things I'm bad at. You can
make a list. There's probably some more. I'm great at
a lot of things, but those two things are my weakness.
Those are my shortcomings.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
I have no idea how wrestling works. I don't watch wrestling.
I watched wrestling back in the day. I don't know
what's going on in wrestling now. I just kind of
wanted to talk in general terms. And there were times
when he brought up certain matches that I had no
idea what he was talking about.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
I thought I played it off. Well, obviously I didn't.
There are ways to play it off. You don't have
to know their entire bio when they come in here.
I knew his name thirty minutes before he came in,
then started to learn about him. He had the dope shoes.
People said, what is this a product? Pitch Sison just
named all the stuff that he was panhandling, his shoes,
his wrestling figure, his video game.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
It was well done. It was fun. Now I want
to get to the weekend. I want to know about
the birthday Shenanigans. I want to know about Evansville, Indiana.
I want to know about the caci.

Speaker 2 (04:10):
No, they went down. It was me, Justin and his
sister Tate and wait, wait, wait that's it what Yeah,
everybody fell out, Bay Bay out. She was kind of
still working and she had a friend come over.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
Hold on, So it was you, Justin and his sister
tATu driving two hours to Evansville to the casino.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
It's about two hours and thirty minutes.

Speaker 1 (04:42):
It's all to a great start. Tell me more.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
I got lost on the way there. I took a
wrong turn. Justin was doing the directions on his phone,
and he wouldn't tell me until we were at a
stop sign or at an exit. Go that's the exit there,
And I said, well, dude, you got to give me
one hundred yards leeway so that I'm able to then
get the right hand lane and get over.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
Hold on what time did you guys leave Nashville?

Speaker 2 (05:04):
One o'clock Central time? Good PM?

Speaker 1 (05:07):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (05:08):
And then they that's when they learned Beaser wasn't coming.
They were upset too. But I don't think Baser would
have enjoyed a two and a half hour car ride.
She would have cut into my pot of money. I
had six hundred dollars. I would have had three hundred
if she went, which is very difficult to win money
the less amount you take. It's really all about the mindset.

(05:28):
How do you beat Vegas? Well, if you go out
to Vegas, you need one hundred thousand dollars if you're
gonna be playing ten thousand dollars hands correct, So if
you take three hundred dollars. You're most likely gonna be
playing five dollars and hands and it's gonna take forever,
or you're gonna lose all your money.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
Correct.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
Anyways, we get.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
Up there, you hit the open road, you hit the driving,
and then.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
Justin tells me at a gas station he's sucking down
a what was it? A monster heavy? It had alcohol
in it. Gas station, we're all taking pisses. Justin's shotgunning
a monster with alcohol in it. That's how the trip
was going. He'd already had beers. I told him throw
him in the track. You can legally drink in Tennessee
in the passenger seat. And then he shotgun the monster
and he goes, hey, I got to tell you something.

(06:06):
We'd been in the car for an hour together. I
need a minute with you. And I said, what, dude,
we're going to the casino. This is fun. What do
you need? He goes, you know, our friend Bill, not Billy, Bill.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
Bill from the apartment.

Speaker 2 (06:17):
Yeah, we'd been having jovial conversation the whole time. Oh,
Bill's moving to Michigan. Wor'st Bill on this one? Is
he back on the skag Hey Bill's house just drove
down the road, see that trailer, just teasing making fun
of him. Hey, man, I need you for a second.
Justin says, Bill and my sister are dating tato.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
Oh my god. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (06:36):
And so Justin didn't tell me un till halfway in
the trip, and we'd been Bill's ripping on him, but
we were jacking around for sure. I was like, well,
great start, dude.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
How long have they been an iel?

Speaker 2 (06:45):
I don't know. But so then that led into Saturday
when we all partied on Broadway. They're dating, they're holding
hands making out. Yeah, and it's awkward because Justin it's
a sister. But yeah, so that was the start.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
Justin hooked him up.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
Now, I just he just had wondered why she kept visiting. Wait, wait,
she doesn't live here, No, she lives in Michigan.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (07:08):
And then even she was saying, this drives long, are
you guys taking me to Indiana or Michigan? Because the
casino's in Indiana? And I said, I didn't realize it
was as long as it was in your head. You
always just narrow down times. I thought it was about
an hour and twenty minutes. Bro, it is every bit
of two hours and twenty minutes. Oh it was. We
didn't get there till four thirty. We started at one.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
Oh wait wait wait is it eastern time?

Speaker 2 (07:32):
No? Same time? Okay, yeah, so we got there. They
the GPS drove us through a blighted area in Evansville.
It looked a lot like Detroit. Oh yeah, it was
very very rough. Windows and doors were locked. Found a
parking spot, make sure it was secured, and then we parked.
And then we were in Evansvillehere at Valley's. Valley's looks great, though,
once you're up in the casino, beautiful. It's not Tunica.

(07:54):
Sometimes you got some lights out on signs. Valley's looks beautiful.
It looks fine. There's heavy smoke when you walk in.
You got a cut it with a knife. Oh but
then you get in, okay, and you've got the sports book.
It had every baseball game on big.

Speaker 1 (08:06):
Big window, big big TVs.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
It's a decent side. Huh, decent TVs. There was there
was two chairs in the sports book area, so if
you didn't have a chair, dude, you were standing. I
used the kiosk. I had put my bet slip and
I was leaning up against a kiosk Okay, there's no
seating whatsoever. Love this book, but we did the Foundation.

Speaker 1 (08:26):
So they don't want you sitting there watching sports. They
want you to place your bet and get out. Is
there a counter? Is it all kiosk?

Speaker 2 (08:31):
There's four kiosks, but they also have the counter, but
nobody goes up to the counter anymore.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
Got it?

Speaker 2 (08:36):
So we're there. We did the Foundation bet and Justin
wanted to do hitters, so we did.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
Oh god yeah them to get a hit or over
this amount of basis.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
We did a Phillies Cleveland sack. So we did Kwan
to get a hit, Trey Turner to get a hit,
Fry Freeley to get a hit, and Jose Ramirez to
get a hit. And it was also City Appreciation night,
so the Phillies were wearing turquoise. They looked like the Marlins.
So Justin was so drunk for a lot of the
time he goes, dumb ass, We're not watching the Marlins game,

(09:04):
and I said, dumb ass, it's City Appreciation night. The
Phillies are wearing the Marlins colors, and so it was
off and running. We did our Foundation parlay and we
all invested in the exact same parlay.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
Is Tata drinking.

Speaker 2 (09:16):
Tata's drinking. She confirmed with me. She said, you're gonna
drive home and I said, yeah, So she's drinking. Justin
is already ordering bud heavies. Were only six dollars, Not
bud lights, they're the red ones. Yeah, sixteen ouncers. He
put down six of those in three hours. Not bad
once we were there, yet overall, at the end of
the night, I think he said he finished twenty drinks.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
It's not bad.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
That's how you celebrate a birthday. Yeah, but we did
the foundation parlay, and so we're just watching it. We're
floating from there. They had bubble craps, your specialty. I'm
touching a little bubble craps. He's doing the roulette. His sister.
I think she might have brought fifty bucks. She is
not a big gambler, so she was really just there
to support her brother. Tata. It's your birthday. Sis is

(09:57):
in from Michigan to also hang out with your friend Bill.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
I'm dating him, so a double edged sword. She was
there for the quote unquote birthday, but she was really
there to see Bill.

Speaker 2 (10:07):
No, she loves her brother. I think, uh yeah, yeah,
maybe just same.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
Did Justin just find out they were dating on that trip.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
I don't know. He hasn't told me, okay, But it
all started when we were going to get some lake
house and Bill wanted Justin to drive to the lake
house owner because Bill knew him, and Justin was going
to introduce himself drive two hours before his birthday a
month before and introduce himself to the lake house owner,
say hi, there, I'm gonna be staying at your house
for the weekend. Thanks for letting us have it for free.
Nice to meet you, and Justin said, dumb ass, I'm

(10:35):
not driving two hours to shake some guy's hand. And
so then it was put on me and Baser to
plan Justin's birthday.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
Has Bill ever heard of zoom? You can't meet on zoom?

Speaker 2 (10:44):
I have no idea. And so then I also said
that conversation and Tata heard it. I didn't know they
were dating, okay, but yeah, So the car ride was
supposed to be lunchbox, Me, Baser, Tata, Justin Angeline, and
it ended up being me, Justin and Tata.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
I was never committed to this. I was never even
invited until you brought it up on the pod and
I was like, well, I never heard from Justin. Then
he texts me and says, hey, we have to go
on July twenty six, and I was like, okay, let
me look at that. But then I realized that was
the last day of pre K. But go ahead with
your story. So you're at the casino.

Speaker 2 (11:21):
At the casino, I'm six hundred heavy, he's like four
hundred heavy. And we start realizing, hey, keep the money
in the pocket. You just never know. It's a city
we've never been into. We're not trying to get jacked.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
So there were people in the parking lot that were stragglers.
I'm not saying they were homeless. I'm not saying they
had a blossoming career. I'm just saying they're in the
parking lot looking a little shady. So we made sure
windows were up, doors were locked, money was in pocket.
You don't bring your money out in plane sight. If
you're going to count your money, you go in the bathroom,
into the stall. But we started rolling. They're doing roulette,

(11:52):
and he was kind of teaching her. Tata never gambled before,
not a good So Tata would come up to me, Hey,
so what are you rooting for? Seven oh? No, Tata,
You're not allowed to say the number seven. It's actually
like bad luck of these machines. And so I'd say,
see this little column over here to the right. It
is all visual. It says right here, I'm rooting four seven.
Five minutes later, she's maybe a couple deep now, so

(12:14):
you're rooting for seven, Tata. Remember what I said. I'm
actually fine with it. I don't really believe in the
saying seven in front of a bubble craps machine jinx.
But there's people around me. They never want to hear
the number seven, So don't say it. Fifteen minutes later, Okay,
so are you rooting for seven?

Speaker 1 (12:31):
Oh my gosh, dude.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
Her and Justin couldn't understand the game of craps to
save their life. Justin is a medical professional at Vanderbilt.
She has a blossoming, booming what does she even do?
Software development with apps? And she travels and has a
great career. They can't understand. You either root for the
seven right off the bat, or you root for the seven. Secondarily,
it's very simple. That's the easiest way I can explain

(12:53):
the game.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
No, you root for seven off the bat, or you
root for the number that was rolled right off the bat.
You want to root seven later?

Speaker 2 (13:01):
Secondarily, secondarily would be rooting against it because then you
get seven if you okay, I just make them make
it simple. But so I'm sitting there doing the bubble
we got the baseball thing rong?

Speaker 1 (13:10):
Were there other people at the bubble craps with you?

Speaker 2 (13:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (13:12):
How packed is the casino on a Friday Friday?

Speaker 2 (13:14):
It's good. I mean there's a it's happened, it's hoppened,
and all the locals. Uh, it looked like it A
lot of people in town for let's say a baseball tournament.
Softball tournament, They're wearing jerseys and crap. Okay, dad's sneaking
away from a conference. Dad's in town playing where their
kids are playing baseball. Maybe, so that was the vibe.
Nobody really our age Justin said he didn't see one
hot chick the entire night. Oh that was Justin. Though

(13:36):
I didn't You didn't look, No, I didn't look. But
I mean I thought people were nice and friendly?

Speaker 1 (13:41):
Was it a so wasn't a smoke free zone? Dude?

Speaker 2 (13:43):
Do is cigarette? Smoke, vape, smoke, weed, smoke, THHC edibles
all that in your nose.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
So the ventilation wasn't the best.

Speaker 2 (13:52):
Yeah, so it starts off right away where I'm just
looking at the numbers. Let me get into my craps
real quick. I'm just looking at the numbers, so I'll
waste twenty dollars just to learn how the dice is rolling.
And Justin goes, what are you rooting for? And I said,
dumb ass, it doesn't matter what I'm rooting for. I'm
playing three dollars a hand. I'm just realizing what these
dice are doing. And I get it in my head.
It's like all saber metrics. They're rolling, they're rolling. There's

(14:13):
a lot of sevens. What does that tell you? You're
not playing the numbers. So that means you're not painting
the town, because if there's a lot of sevens, you're
gonna lose that town. Correct, So a lot of sevens,
you're just trying to avoid the pitfalls of the sevens.
This means it is a perfect opportunity to bet against
the bubble machine. Bet the fuck against it. I didn't
believe it, and I said, I said, stay back, because
I'm about to bet against this motherer. So twenty I

(14:38):
would put in twenty dollars, and I would just try
to double up to one hundred on cash out. I
put in twenty, double up to forty, double up to
eighty cash out. I go to the cash here, get
my eighty. Come back. Justin's dicking around. I'm like, all right,
I'll hit craps again. Put in my twenty, double up, forty,
double up eighty. Then when I got to eighty, I'd
kind of play like a little puss for a little bit,

(14:58):
get to one hundred cash out. So I'm up two hundred.

Speaker 1 (15:01):
Would you say like a pussy cat?

Speaker 2 (15:02):
Yeah, pussy cat. And so I'm up about two hundred,
and it's let's say six thirty. We only got we
only got two more hours left. We've been there for
two hours.

Speaker 1 (15:10):
Oh you're leaving at eight thirty. That's the departure top, yes,
oh my, because we wanted to get back before midnight.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
Hey may I smell like smoke and Justin's.

Speaker 1 (15:17):
Drunk, and you got a two and a half hour drive.
I forgot.

Speaker 2 (15:20):
That's the other thing. And the two hundred then kind
of dropped into the one twenties. And then I'd go
up to Justin and he'd be like, how much you got,
and I'd say, well, I started with six and I
got seven twenty and he'd go, well, that means you're
at one. You got one twenty. And I go, well,
I like to round up, so I'm up two hundred.
He goes, no, you're up one twenty. So it was
just that's how I remember those distinct numbers, because it

(15:41):
was one twenty or I was up two hundred. It
just kept floating back and forth between there. And so
Justin's at roulette, he would lose ten, he'd be down fifteen.
At one point he was playing the timeline, he was
playing for two and a half hours. He was down
forty dollars. I'm like, what are you guys doing playing
one dollar rolls?

Speaker 1 (15:58):
Oh my god, it's like that, Like it's like people
that walk up and throw like money on every number,
and I'm like, guys, you're not going to win any
money that way. You got to pick a few numbers
and stack some chips on that number, throwing you know
it on fifteen numbers. Okay, so you made a dollar
on fifteen numbers, you hit one number, you made twenty bucks.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Right, And so his sister with playing at fifty, we
walked around with her a little bit and did a
slot and she had she entered. What did she put in?
Maybe twenty dollars and five minutes later she was at
seventeen dollars. She was playing for five cent spends.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
That's like my buddy AJ. It's like my buddy AJ.
When he told me he liked to gamble, and so
we went to Vegas together and we stayed at the Hooter.
They were just then turning it into the Hooters casino
in Vegas, and he played the nickel slots all weekend
and I said, AJ, I thought you liked the gamble.
He's like, dude, look I just won ninety credits. I
was like, that's ninety nickels. Yeah, I don't even know

(16:58):
how much that is, but it's like five dollars. And
I was like, wow, that's amazing. So I never went
back to Vegas with AJ, except when he got married.
He got married in Vegas. I did go, but he didn't.
He was doing wedding stuff and we were getting hammered,
and uh yeah, that was my whole slot machine experience.
I was like, this is kind of weird, but go
ahead with your story.

Speaker 2 (17:17):
So we're about halfway in, his sisters cleaned out, she
took her seventeen, went to roulette.

Speaker 1 (17:22):
How often does she texting? Bill? Like? Is she texted Bill? Hey,
I just played a slot machine? Hey, Like, how serious
is this?

Speaker 2 (17:28):
Well, at one point I don't think she was really texting.
But at one point her and Justin were sharing nachos
and there was no tables in the sportsbook, so the
nachos were ending up on the on the floor and
we're watching a losing baseball bet, because that is of
this point, Trey Turner, no hit Kwan, no hit Fry
was the only one that got to hit. Jose Ramirez
no hit so foreshadowing the baseball beat sucked ass and

(17:50):
wasn't even close to hitting. But we were excited we
could do hitters there. It's not just over under. That
was pretty cool in the mine as you can do
the hitters. So it's like a real sports book. It is, yeah,
but miniature version. And there's one or two seats, so
we would take turns sitting on the on the chair.
But she's cleaned out.

Speaker 1 (18:07):
Okay, this is halfway through, right halfway, we're halfway. We'll
take a break and we'll get the other half of
the trip right after this, and.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
Justin at this point he was always down every time
I checked it. He didn't leave bubble roulettes, if you
want to call it. It wasn't a live dealer. It wasn't
a live.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
Did they have live dealers at all?

Speaker 2 (18:29):
Or yeah, but the craps table not one row of people,
there was two rows of people around it. No way
you could get into that thing. Only had one table,
one table. They have blackjack table blackjack, but wasn't as popular.
You could have got in on that. Craps was never yelling,
but always busy as f and so Justin always was down.
He was down forty eighty up to one hundred. So

(18:51):
me and and I'm up two hundred, Justin's down one hundred.
We say, hey, let's go play roulette with a live
dealer and I will post a picture to sore losers later.
This is when Justin, about sixteen deep, gets in a
fight with the dealer. Oh god, and there were candid
pictures that I can post. She hands him the dice

(19:12):
or he paid, and she hands him the chips, and
you're supposed to set him on the table and never
go directly to their hand well, Justin grabbed him from
her hand, and she says, don't ever take the chips
from my hand. I have to set them down first.

Speaker 1 (19:23):
Okay, okay, And I'm told you way, does Justin sound
like me? You just didn't meet well Justin?

Speaker 2 (19:29):
Oh, okay, I can't touch them. Great, that's how Justin sounds.
And so then he puts them on it's a far left,
so he put it on odd and he couldn't reach
the odds, so odd won. So Justin was up forty dollars,
but his chips were on the far end of the
tables so he couldn't reach them. And so he goes,
is somebody gonna hand me my chips? Because he thought

(19:52):
there's nuance? The dealer will hand you if you win
a thirty six to one, if you have the singles, yes,
she will push those from the big pile to your pile.

Speaker 1 (20:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
If you win one of the columns or the outside bets,
you ask another player, hey, can you hand me those chips? Right,
Justin didn't understand that. He thought the dealer hands chips
to every person. And I said, dumb ass, have you
ever played craps before? Or roulette? Because I'm pretty sure
or anything in a casino, because she doesn't hand him

(20:20):
to everybody. You have to then ask that guy to
help you out. And he didn't understand that, and so
he then proceeds to take So he's mad at this dealer. Okay,
he said, yeah, I'll just grab my own chips, and
the guy at the far corner I believe he's in
the picture. He goes, I can just hand him to you.
Just let me know when you when you want me
to hand you your chips, and I go, justin, yeah,

(20:42):
he'll just push him to you, and you get it.
Just didn't understand that concept. And so then Justin goes,
that's it.

Speaker 1 (20:48):
I'm out.

Speaker 2 (20:49):
I'm cashing out. So he takes his singles. He's got
all the singles, twenty six of them, let's say, and
he just puts him in his hand and she goes, wait, wait, wait, sir, sir, sir,
you've got to cash him out. And I go, dumb,
you don't just take singles and take it out. You
gotta cash You gotta color up, mother girl, and what

(21:10):
do you need? Oh? And I go, dude, you gotta
give him to her, and then she'll give you like
a big twenty five chip or whatever. Oh okay, dude,
I swear the guy's never been to a casino. But
he gambles all the time. But he's never been to
a casino. It was unbelievable. But she finally she colors
him up. We get out. He was so pissed. He goes,
I don't like that shit. They treat me like that.

(21:30):
I go, dude, she was just doing her job. She
was actually really nice. And then he got mad at
me for siding with her. He goes, and then you
didn't take my side, I said, because she was explaining
to you she has to set him on the table
before you can grab him. Take my side. Next time.

Speaker 1 (21:46):
He's upset because you're not taking the wrong side. He
no matter what, even if he's wrong, he wants you
to take his side.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
Yes, So we head back in the craps and Roulette
bubbles are right next to sportsbook, So we're hitting craps,
hitting Roulette, and then walking to sports book right there. Simple.
It's awesome, actually, and it even better. They had all
the MLB games on, so Justin always fluctuated between one.
He was always down, always down. He'd get to sixty down,
eighty down one hundred down. Let me just tell you

(22:15):
Justin's grew to two hundred down. So he was down
two hundred at this point, it's nearing. It's nearing about
eight o'clock. I am up six hundred. I've just been
hitting craps. I did another saber metrics thing where anytime
it landed all the time on snake eyes or claw.
I call claws the one and the two a snake

(22:36):
eye on one and then two on the other's the claw.
So it would land claw or snake eyes. If it
ever did, it was never a seven after that, never
a seven. So I would always bet against it. If
it goes claw snake eyes, bet against it winner, bet
against it winner. Get up to eighty one time, I
got a little greedy, and I go fit. I'm not
just cashing out at eighty, I'm cashing out at double

(22:57):
net double eighty. Boom hits again one sixty. I went
up to the cashier so much. I went up to
the cash year between twenty and thirty times, because if
I would, I would put it.

Speaker 1 (23:07):
I love the way you cash out after like thirty dollars,
forty dollars, fifty dollars.

Speaker 2 (23:10):
Because if you try to push it past one hundred.
That's when you run into trouble. And so the lady goes, oh, my,
I don't know what you're doing, but you're not supposed
to be doing what you're doing. I've seen you so
many times, which she was kind of kidding, but also
what is happening right now? I mean I went up
to her. You got to think because I was losing
as well. I went up to her. She saw me
go through two grand. That is what I'm talking about, Yes,

(23:32):
because you know, I'd you know, i'd come, i'd cash
out for one twenty. I'd come back and put forty
in the machine and lose it. But then I'd put
twenty and I'd raise that to one hundred. So she
saw me just on the winnings. She never saw the losing,
so she thought I was leaving that place with like
five grand.

Speaker 1 (23:46):
She I mean, she asked, do you need security to
walk into the car because there are some stragglers. We're
not going to stay homeless, but they're not, you know,
doing well in their careers. Dude.

Speaker 2 (23:54):
Her eyes were this big by the time I went
up to her the twentieth time. She had no idea
what secret little machine. I was playing, but I was
crushing it. And so we're nearing eight o'clock and Justin's
down two hundred and so this is Justin at eighteen beers.
I'm ready to go, and I go dumb ass. Our
bets are still parlay, still alive. We're hoping for over

(24:15):
extra innings. They're down three to one. It was the
lowest scoring game ever. Uh, the baseball game didn't hit.
The parlay fucked up. It was terrible.

Speaker 1 (24:24):
You didn't blape it.

Speaker 2 (24:25):
It absolutely was a fucking sham. Justin didn't research anything.
Kwan didn't get a hit, Josey Ramirez didn't get a hit,
Trey Turner didn't get a hit. He was zero for seven.
And the only guy that got a hit was Freeley.
So out of all the parlay, one out of the
eight things hit. Because we also did the hit the bases.
Oh god, it wasn't even close to hitting. We were

(24:46):
trying to win six hundred. It was a sixty dollars bet,
so mistake there. I should have just done my own parlay.
I wanted to do a group one because it was
me Justin, and then Heather gave us a twenty is
Heather Baser's friend, and she said put it on, and
we put it on the same parlay.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
I mean, Heather wasn't even in part of the story,
and then she's donating money. She just jumped in, So
why didn't she just jump in the car.

Speaker 2 (25:08):
That would have been a blast. Actually, I mean we're
just dude. We're in the car just trying to come
up with stuff. Hey man, what is that Bill's house
driving down the road? I mean, I'm trying to make
up jokes. I didn't know it was Joe.

Speaker 1 (25:21):
So what happened?

Speaker 2 (25:21):
So it's eight o'clock, all right, I'm up five and
six hundred dollars. I did a Yankees bet the Live Machine.
I Live machine is even worse on the Kiosk than
it is on your phone, because I tried ten times
to go the Yankees over and then a guy got
thrown out at home, and I was like, that must
be a sign. I'm gonna do the under. The bet
it gets accepted. On the under it went like nineteen

(25:43):
runs and I had under twelve and a half. So
I lost one hundred there lost another I had like
let's say one hundred and twenty. Scraggler dollars that I
was like, I'm just gonna see if I can double
it up, see how crazy I can get. So ended
up being at three hundred. I was only up three hundred, okay.
So I'm about three hundred. Justin's down two hundred okay,

(26:03):
And these are two hail Mary, two hail Mary's.

Speaker 1 (26:06):
Oh, let's throw a hail Mary.

Speaker 2 (26:08):
So on the way out, remember the last ten minutes
it's been I'm ready to go. Hey, let's go to
the car, drunk and angry, drunk and angry, and he's
like yelling at me. I was like, dude, I don't
know if you're being funny, but our bet is still
in play. I still even though it's at twelve, I
still a point five on this Yankees game where I
can win the bet. And then a home run gets
crushed over the wall. But I go, dude, our bet

(26:28):
technically is still going so just hold the f on.
So Justin's like, okay, fine, So he goes, I'm placing
a bet, oh boy, to win it all back. So
he randomly picks the Saint Louis Cardinals game. It was
at nine runs and he put like over fourteen okay, yeah,
and he put two hundred and forty on it.

Speaker 1 (26:46):
Oh so, and it's already in the middle of the game. Obviously,
it's in the middle of game.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
Was a live bet, and so he's drunk and he goes,
can you mail this in? And I go, yeah, dude,
dumb ass lunchbox does it all the time. You just
you'll send it to the casino and they'll end of
your money two minutes later. Can you mail this in? Man? Yeah, dude,
you can mail it. Because he wanted to know could
we leave then I want to go to the car.

Speaker 1 (27:08):
You don't even want to watch the end of your bet.

Speaker 2 (27:10):
No, he wanted to get in the car and then
he'll just mail it in. So he got it confirmed,
he goes, I can just mail it in and I go, yeah, dude,
how many bud heavies did you have? You can mail
the ticket in. We'll go to the car in a second.
I said, let me just do one final bet, and
so we go up to the rule at will. Justin's
got his bet place. It'll pretty much break him even
he's got his Hail Mary in. It's his hail Mary,

(27:31):
and so I said, why why don't I throw a
little hail Mary out there last second, Hail Mary. You
did a Hail Mary, I'll do one.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
Tata doesn't have any money to do Hail Mary.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
Tata has been cleaned out, dude, she's been bored off
her ass for like three hours.

Speaker 1 (27:41):
Did she just scroll on the phone now or she's
still there supporting?

Speaker 2 (27:44):
She would sit with Justin. She'd come over to me
and say, are you rooting for seven?

Speaker 1 (27:48):
Oh? No, it's like our buddy Mike that used to
come up to me at the bike tack table. Hey,
I don't really like that, bet really well, well I
didn't ask you Robbie at the craft tail. Oh you
think that's a good idea. Yeah, it's a good idea.
That's why I did it. And then I lose. He'd
be like, I told you what good idea?

Speaker 2 (28:03):
Yeah, fifty chance of being right. So I do a roulette,
I go Justin goes hey, put it on red. It's
rolled red seven times in a row. And I was
trying to get to a thousand, which would have been
I was trying to get four hundred up. Yep, I
came with six hundred. So I was trying to get
to a thousand, which is a no knowing the casino,
because then you end up at zero.

Speaker 1 (28:23):
That's I do that a lot. Like. I'm like, I
got it all stacked there, and I'm like, okay, if
I can win eighty more dollars, I get a clean,
I'm up clean five hundred. The next thing you've done,
you're only up two hundred. Night. Oh well, should have
just left then.

Speaker 2 (28:34):
Shack said it. Charles Barkley said it perfectly. He said,
my limit was it was always a thousand. It was
always a million I had leave the casino with. And
he said, that's how I knew I had a problem.
For me. It's always a thousand. I gotta leave. So
I was at nine hundred, up three hundred, and I go,
I'll put one hundred dollars bet on whatever we say.
And Justin said, put it on red. Put it on red.

(28:55):
And I was like, screw that. I put it on black.
Put it on black. The timers, so the.

Speaker 1 (29:00):
Timers, you didn't go with him on the dealer fight.
Then he asked you to put it on red. You
go against him again. It's his damn birthday and you
can't do a single thing for Justin. Go ahead, go ahead.

Speaker 2 (29:14):
Justin has his two hundred Hail Mary to pretty much
break even if he wins the baseball bat or he's
down four hundred. I have just a one hundred dollars.
He'll marry, so I'll be up four hundred, or I'll
only be up two hundred. So I put it on black,
and Justin's telling me to put it on red. The
clock's ticking fifteen fourteen. It's timed thirteen twelve. Oh this

(29:35):
video eleven ten. We didn't it was one live dealer.
The lady. Justin got in a fight with yeaph nine eight.
I said bred six five four three, I said bread.
I grabbed my finger from the black and dragged one
hundred dollars over to the red. I didn't even know
if it was the touchscreen would allow me to do that.

(29:56):
It accepts it. The bet has been placed. The wheel
is right into a red sixteen. I told you I
told you to do red. Well, I mean, look at
the thing. It says it's hit red like the last thirty. Okay,

(30:18):
I told you to do red, and we're going crazy. Dude.
I did a hail Mary. He did a Hail Mary.
That's not looking good. So we get in the car.
We're out of the casino. I'm up four hundred, Tata
lost forty Justin TBD.

Speaker 1 (30:31):
Justin in the front seat, back seat, who rides front?

Speaker 2 (30:33):
Who he's riding? He was riding, bitch the whole time. Okay, yeah,
we get in the car. Dude. We were in that
car across the Ohio River no more than ten minutes
and they put up like nine runs. His bet hit
like that and he ended up. He just texted me
this morning and he goes, Hey, if anybody was keeping track,
here we go. I wanted to say it verbatim after

(30:54):
the whining and crying. I lost a total of forty
two dollars at the casino. Has been calculated all that,
and he lost forty two dollars after the hail Mary.

Speaker 1 (31:06):
That's great, dude, that's fantastic.

Speaker 2 (31:08):
It was good, dude, It was good. The sad thing
is I could have won so much more if I
didn't go with them so much more. What do you mean, well,
I mean every time him and his sister came up
to me, Hey are you rolling seven? Oh loss? Hey,
so you're at eighty you're trying to double up to
get to one hundred loss. Oh, you're in a hundred.

(31:31):
This is a big one loss. I hate to say it,
but the ones I lost is when they were watching me.
I think I could have been up between eight hundred
and nine hundred on craps, just me relaxing, no pressure,
seeing numbers instead of people screaming in my ears, I
would have been up nine hundred. And if I would
have placed my own parlay baseball, it would have probably
hit that. I would have cleared probably fifteen hundred solo

(31:54):
four hundred with them.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
Do you wish you would have used my gifts er
tookt for the free night hotels day, I don't know, dude.

Speaker 2 (32:00):
There was a people were definitely staying because they were
getting housed, so it was definitely And there's not free drinks, right,
not free drinks, but they're cheap, and it's free pop
and soda and coffee and then the bottles and all
that is pretty damn cheap. Six dollars sixteen ounces not bad.

Speaker 1 (32:15):
Yeah, so it's a good trips to the casino.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
It was a good trip, but the drive alone, it's
probably not happening again.

Speaker 1 (32:21):
Two and a half hours, yeah, two and a half
hours there, two and a half hours back, five hours
in one day to only be there for four hours,
that is a long, rough day. And that is why
I am not sitting here saying, man, I really wish
i'd have gone, because if we'd have spent the night, maybe,
But no, I had more important things to do. I
had to pick my kid up from his last day
of pre k. Yeah, but I'll tell you all about it.

(32:44):
I'll tell you about my weekend. Oh wait, we gotta
talk about brunch. Yeah, we'll be right back. So what
happened that brunch? Did you guys stick with State Side?

Speaker 2 (32:58):
No, we didn't do state Side. Too much of a
d jan, too loud, And also you had to cancel
within two days of it. If you didn't go, you'd
have to pay for it.

Speaker 1 (33:05):
I understand, But why wouldn't you go?

Speaker 2 (33:07):
They're thinking maybe the crowd would be hung over. We
didn't know the exact number people were canceling on his
birthday all over the place.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
But who showed up? We did?

Speaker 2 (33:15):
Hopsmith, Angelina rolled up, Baser, pulled up, I pulled up, Bill,
pulled up, tat Top pulled up, Justin, pulled up Heather. No, Heather.
She had a family and kids and equally as busy
as you. Oh, but then we bounced around it. We
did Hopsmith, we did Losers, we did barstool in the gulch,
neighbors nice it. It was a time, I mean it was.

Speaker 1 (33:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (33:38):
It was a lot of just joking around, wishing him
happy birthday at probably twenty different times. Not really any
fireworks or anything.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
Nothing exciting, huh.

Speaker 2 (33:48):
Besides, Angelina was apparently working, so she was closing deals.
She brought her iPad and she'd go, no, sell, sell, Sorry, guys,
I got it. I have to sell fifteen of these
before the end of the day. I have no idea
what she was selling, but the whole time in.

Speaker 1 (34:01):
The car, like one of the yes portable X Ray machines,
I'm gonna.

Speaker 2 (34:05):
Need you to sell yes, yep, yep, at fifteen, Sell
at fifteen.

Speaker 1 (34:09):
Like in the Pursuit of Happiness when Will Smith's trying
to sell those things door to door.

Speaker 2 (34:12):
Dude, she was hammering the phone line. Man. Why she
was drinking, Yeah, I mean she was having a couple buddies.

Speaker 1 (34:18):
So are her and Justin back to officially dating.

Speaker 2 (34:20):
No, they're not dating. But we all we all took
our ubers home. Everybody kind of went their own separate ways,
so I don't think they ended up together.

Speaker 1 (34:27):
But they took their uber to the same place because
they live in the same apartment.

Speaker 2 (34:30):
No, she moved, so she lives in a different part
of town. Oh, we all got ubers at the exact
same time. Justin went west, we went north, Angelina went northwest.

Speaker 1 (34:40):
And where did ta tak go?

Speaker 2 (34:42):
That's I mean tot time. Bill probably rolled.

Speaker 1 (34:45):
So she didn't stay with Justin. She stayed with Bill.
That's weird for Justin.

Speaker 2 (34:50):
Jad They definitely left separately.

Speaker 1 (34:52):
Oh man, Well, I'm gonna tell you what. Man. Friday
was the last day of pre K. So I was like,
you know what, I got a little bit of time.
I'm gonna play some golf muni, I know, not local MUNI.
I called up brother Brother and I was like, Pitts
so the podcast starter, Brother, Hey, and let's give this
guy some love. Pitts comes on this pod and out

(35:13):
of nowhere he drops a pod. So, I mean, I
want to encourage you guys to go look out for
Pitts's podcast. He put his first episode out yesterday. I
wish I knew the name of it. Will put it
on our Facebook page. I think someone already did.

Speaker 2 (35:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (35:26):
Uh, listen to Pitts's journey. It's him about leaving Kansas.
I'm not sure exactly the podcast, but he gives us
some love, so we should all go down. I don't
like promoting other podcasts. Download Pitts's podcast. We played a
round of golf on Friday. Pitts didn't mention one time.
Not one time did he mention that he was going
to put out a podcast. Not one time did he say, hey,

(35:48):
I'm gonna put this out. My first episode comes out
on Sunday. Didn't say a damn word.

Speaker 2 (35:52):
I asked me in the bathroom. I said, brother, how'd
you figure out how to do all that shit?

Speaker 1 (35:54):
Man?

Speaker 2 (35:54):
Drop it into that? And he goes, Brother, I just googled.
Didn't you just put it in an RSS feed? Brother?
I had it produced and ready to go on Sunday.

Speaker 1 (36:00):
All right, well, I'll be damned. So show up to
the golf course out there by Brothers Pitts's house, and
we got a tea time and it's just us two
and I'm like all right. Pitts rolls up, We getting
the golf cart, go to check in. The guy's like, hey,
there's two guys that are gonna be playing with you,
but they haven't checked in yet. He goes. If you, guys,
when your tea time comes up, you just want to
go to the tea box, don't bother looking for them.

(36:22):
If they're not there, they're not there, you go ahead
and play. Oh yeah, I'm like, all right, I step
up wide right, all right, breakfast ball.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
Left, two off the deck.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
Cool? Cool at that, breakfast ball. Brother gets up there,
and then here comes other golf cart. Here come the
two dudes. Hey man, I think we're gonna play with
you guys. You guys, yep, yep, I am all right,
Alex Corey cool, nice to meet you, guys. Cool cool.
Pitts hits one right now, right down the middle. They

(36:58):
step up and Alex doesn't even take a practice swing
way out there, right down the middle.

Speaker 2 (37:06):
I am.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
Then Corey steps up. Corey's left, he's Phil Mickelson right
down the middle. Okay, this is gonna be one of
those days. You guys are really good at golf. And
let me tell you that Alex guy was good at Golf's.

Speaker 2 (37:20):
Always makes you wonder why they're not playing corn ferry
or something.

Speaker 1 (37:23):
He no, he ain't that good but he didn't never
take practice swings, and he would just right there right
on the green, right there in the fairway, right there
in the green. Two putt, well, one putt, two putt,
I mean every time. Wow, dude was good out of
the sand six inches from the hole. I mean it

(37:44):
was he was really good, great touch.

Speaker 2 (37:47):
Better to play like that than the ladder.

Speaker 1 (37:48):
Yeah, Corey, he was good. Not as good as Alex me.
I have lost my driver. I don't know how to
hit a driver. I can't hit it straight. I'm yanking
everything left, Okay, over correct, go right? Oh all right,
let's try this. Hit it straight in the air fifty
yard I mean, driver out of the back just terrible, terrible,

(38:08):
But it was a fun round with pits. And we're
rolling right along until we get to the back nine.
Then every tea box. Never we get to there are
two groups waiting to tee off on the back nine.
Are you kidding me? And I'm like what I have
to get my son from his last day of pre k,

(38:32):
Like what are we doing here? That's on the clubhouse
And some guy comes rolling up from the He's like, hey,
you guys back, Yeah, what the hell's going? He goes, man,
we got a bachelor party up ahead of you guys.
There's like twenty six of them. They had like sixty
times or something like that. He goes and they are
just really slow, man, they're holding everybody up. I'll go
see what I can do. And he said some of

(38:54):
them were playing sixum's you know what I mean. And
I think they were doing good on the front nine.
But then as you get into the back that's a
part of your drinking more. You don't realize you're taking
as long that it was sitting on every tea box
for fifteen to twenty minutes.

Speaker 2 (39:10):
That's why I don't play eighteen.

Speaker 1 (39:12):
At this point, Pitts is getting pissed off.

Speaker 2 (39:15):
He's gonna talk about in his podcast.

Speaker 1 (39:17):
He is getting pissed off, like I'd rather be at home,
you know, in the rain, mowing the lawn barefoot, than
sitting here just waiting. It's hard of getting in a flow.
And I was like, I know, brother, I understand. I
totally agree with you. I was like, this is getting
rough and there's rain clouds all around us. He's like,
but we are lucky. We have got to drop a rain.

(39:37):
We have got to drop a rain. That way, yeah,
and then number fifteen, All of a sudden, my driver's
back right down the middle. All right, cool. Number sixteen,
driver's back right down the middle. We get to seventeen.
We're waiting. Par three. We're waiting. You know. We got
the two groups in front of us. One is up

(39:58):
on the green, the other one about to tee off. Think, Dan, think,
think it's starting to rain, and I'm like, oh, it's
all right, it's just a couple of drops. Then it
starts sprinkling. Then that team, that group in front of us,
hits They get on the green and we're about to

(40:20):
get out of the cart and the bottom falls out
of the sky and I look at Alex and Corey.
I'm like, they're smoking there there. They got their heaters
and you know, cancer sticks in their mouth. We're right, boys,
what are you thinking. They're like, oh, we may wait
about five minutes, see what it goes to us. Do

(40:40):
that's what we're thinking.

Speaker 2 (40:41):
You boys smoking a couple of darts.

Speaker 1 (40:43):
But they were coming in. I was driving, so it's
coming on the other side of the cart. So Pitts
is getting soaked. He's like, man, I don't really want
to just sit here in the rain. This ain't really
worth it to me. I was like, Eh, let's just see.
It just starts spraining harder. I was like, we're out
of here. Boys. Nice to meet y'all. I see a
later Corey and we drive up and once we pass
that hole, not a drop. I'm like, we made the

(41:05):
wrong decision, man, we are so dumb. We left and
it wasn't even gonna rain that long. Then we get
to walk a lot. The problem is it was moving
that way. It just hadn't reached there. It was sprinting
back to the car after dropping the cart off, and
it monsoon for the next thirty minutes as I drove

public school.

Speaker 1 (45:02):
Yeah, we'll take a break and I'll tell you about
the rest of my weekend right after this. I mean,
I gotta say I am all Olympics all the time.
I watched so much Olympics. My kids are one into
the Olympics. They are die hard, go crazy. It was amazing.

Speaker 2 (45:26):
But I all have an opening ceremony.

Speaker 1 (45:28):
Well, the opening ceremony I didn't really understand. There was
at one point where they were like doing a threesome.
There was like two guys and a girl like going
up these stairs and like one guy's about to kiss her,
but then the other guy grabs her to kiss her.
And then they go in a bedroom and there's all
three of them on the bed and my kids are like.

(45:50):
My kids are like, Dad, what are they doing?

Speaker 2 (45:52):
They explain that to the little Johnny.

Speaker 1 (45:54):
And then they close the door, you know, like you're
not allowed to see this, And my kids go, Dad,
why they close the door? And I'm like, I don't
know how to explain this. It's like they're how we
get threesome on the opening ceremonies, I was like, uh.
And then they're showing all the damn boats and they're like,
well on boats seven. There are eighty five total boats.

(46:15):
I'm like, oh my god, I can't sit here and
watch eighty five freaking boats. And the person running across
rooftops like to go light the torch looks like it's
a freaking burglar has a mask on, and my four
year old is terrible, like what are they doing? Are
they trying to break in? Are they the bad guy?
And I'm like no, no, they're a good guy. Well where
are they going? Why are they jumping from the roofs?

(46:36):
Like why are they sneaking around? Why do they have
a mask on? Terrifying my four year old snoop dogg.
I didn't. I don't know, and then Kelly Clarkson on
the I don't. It was a weird thing. I didn't
watch the whole opening ceremonies. I stopped it. I was like,
I can't do this. But I did go over to
the neighbors after the kids went to bed. We left
my cellphone in their room and we called my wife's

(46:58):
one because they want to have a drink on the porch.
They're like, oh, you want to go in and watch
the rest of the opening ceremonies, Like no, I'm good,
I'm good. And we have a drink or two on
the porch, you know, chatting it up. And then it's
like eleven o'clock, like, oh, we're gonna head over and
go back to bed. We're gonna go to bed. They're like, yeah,
I see you guys later. And an Amazon truck rolls
up at eleven o'clock at night. I'm like, why would

(47:18):
an Amazon truck be delivering packages this late a damn night?
And we get over and it's my neighbor getting out
of a party van.

Speaker 2 (47:29):
Ah, you tie one on, Mark.

Speaker 1 (47:31):
I no, she's seventy six, Gertrude, she is seventy six
years old.

Speaker 2 (47:38):
I was Western Willies.

Speaker 1 (47:40):
And she is getting out of a party van, party bus, whatever,
and the driver held her arm and walked her to
the door.

Speaker 2 (47:49):
I think my neighbor was doing the same.

Speaker 1 (47:50):
Thing, but I would like me and my wife were
laughing so hard, like of course, a seventy six year
old woman getting out of a party bus going into
her house. I laughed out. I was like, here, I
thought I was an Amazon driver and it is the
freaking retirement home with a bunch of old people coming
back from the club.

Speaker 2 (48:06):
Dude, you did me one better. My neighbor, her light's
been on at one am the past three nights, and
I said, baezer, she's never up at this hour, what's
going on? And she goes, oh, it's her birthday. She
has family in town and they've been partying. She's in
her seventies.

Speaker 1 (48:19):
See, so I'm saying, it's been like.

Speaker 2 (48:22):
Three straight nights. I'm like, hey, when I leave for work,
those lights are all wide open, just fy. And she goes, yeah,
she's been celebrating.

Speaker 1 (48:30):
Hilarious, and she has another thing coming up hilarious. So yeah, now,
I mean that was that. But then the Olympics, Dude,
let me tell you what I watched. I watched cross
country horses. Volleyball, which volleyball?

Speaker 2 (48:44):
Sand?

Speaker 1 (48:44):
I watched sand volleyball, but cross country horses. I don't
know how this is an Olympic sport. I don't know
why it's an Olympic sport. And I am shocked at
how many people were there to watch cross country horses.
It was phenomenal. It is a three like a three
mile course and the horses are galloping and they are

(49:05):
jumping over boats, They're jumping over bushes into water, up ramps.
I mean, it was so crazily stupid. It was awesome.

Speaker 2 (49:16):
Grand Theft auto horse it, dude, it was so cool
to watch. It's tough to follow in the bar. They
had all the different TVs on it on Saturday without
an announcer explaining some of the stuff.

Speaker 1 (49:28):
That's the one problem is they don't explain it. I
don't know the rules. I don't know what's going on.
I just know they're jumping. I don't know. And there's
like different paths they can take, but there's time penalties
if you take the easier path. Don't understated it. But
I just watched the horses jumping and I was like,
this is crazy. Then I watched handball, and if you've
never watched handball, they are some athletic and they knock

(49:52):
the shit out of each other. And I mean they
are jumping sideways, they get a forearm to the chest,
off balance, flinging off the so fun.

Speaker 2 (50:01):
I gotta see some handies.

Speaker 1 (50:03):
But the problem is they don't. These announcers act like
everybody's been watching handball. Their whole life and they don't
explain the rules.

Speaker 2 (50:11):
What about the guy that does swimming, He has his
great announcer voice. Dude, he's in hibernation for four years
and then he comes out for swimming. He goes turney
a turkey. Oh my dude, he has a great voice.
I haven't heard him since the last Olympics for Phelps.

Speaker 1 (50:25):
Yeah, where's he been. I don't know. He doesn't do
anything for four years. Yeah, that's exactly. I mean, who
who actually is an announcer for handball? Like there are
professional announcers for handball that know the rules, but they
don't explain it to the common listener or watch her
whatever you want to say it is. But handball was
so freaking fun. Yeah, the Olympics is kind of It's

(50:48):
bad for me. It reminds me it's Lower when he
used to.

Speaker 2 (50:51):
Cheat on his wife. Oh sorry, he was cheating with
the NBC intern And that's true.

Speaker 1 (50:57):
I also watched badminton.

Speaker 2 (50:59):
We'll be bad on today. I'm Matt Lower.

Speaker 1 (51:04):
I watched badminton. Dude, badminton was so freaking fun. Like,
it is so wild to see them, I mean they
and it looks like it's going way out and then
it just flutters down. Then they way up from the
baseline smack it.

Speaker 2 (51:17):
And also why put all these dumb ass I get
your fetish with the horse thing.

Speaker 1 (51:21):
No, I don't understand why sport.

Speaker 2 (51:23):
Why not put the splash ball thing on that Sam
hump plays on the beach with the.

Speaker 1 (51:26):
Oh, spike ball, spike spike balls.

Speaker 2 (51:28):
A pickleball. Let's get some of those at beer pong.

Speaker 1 (51:32):
What else did we watch? We watched water polo, dude,
a lot of swimming. Dude. The water polo they like
drown each other.

Speaker 2 (51:38):
They drown each other and when the ball goes to
the other end, then they all just swim to one
side and nothing happens.

Speaker 1 (51:43):
For Yeah, I don't understand why they don't play defense
further out.

Speaker 2 (51:47):
I don't know why they don't do half court because
when they go to the other side, they all just
swim down. Why not just keep it? It's look, you
have two goalies. Yeah, so what like if you tag out,
it's just a point version of the game where they
all swim down. I it's like free backs. But right
they just let him dribble it up. It's like, oh,

(52:07):
we're not gonna press. They don't do a full court pressure.

Speaker 1 (52:09):
I don't know why, and I don't know the rules
because they don't say it, but they just blow the
whistle and they expect.

Speaker 2 (52:13):
You've been watching water polo at Yale for the past
six years. Oh, here we go. They are ready for
their pressure. What the fuck does that mean? Here she
goes with her hoopedie. Who oh what?

Speaker 1 (52:25):
He got a two minute penalty for what? I mean?
They're all drowning each other. I don't know what they're doing.

Speaker 2 (52:31):
She tickled the water a little too hard over to you,
Mark NBC Peacock.

Speaker 1 (52:36):
But the impressiveness of just them doing like the water polo,
like not touching the ground and just treading water the
whole time and grabbing this ball and being able to
have the core straight to lift yourself out of water
and fire it freaking amazing.

Speaker 2 (52:49):
And uh, Tariko is little sit downs. He's got Phelps
in there with him, Trico. Trico loves him this shit
like he sits down, Hey, Michael, how have you been Michael?
Put Phelps now has the ponytailer, he's got the little
goat he does look and then he's got down Staley
in there. Hey, down, so you weren't olympian one time.

(53:12):
Look at this picture of you carrying the torch. Dreco.

Speaker 1 (53:15):
Shut the hell up, dude.

Speaker 2 (53:16):
He loves to sit down by the fireside.

Speaker 1 (53:18):
He does. He like he feels very important at that moment.

Speaker 2 (53:24):
Drico, it's Phelps man. Give him DAPs, Michael. It remembers
when you were swimming like this over this newcomer Danielson over.
Now there's some new guys swimmer. It's the new Phelps
and locked. You haven't learned his name. It's like Danielson
or something.

Speaker 1 (53:39):
Uh, Drestler, Yeah, I don't know. Jostler going for gol.

Speaker 2 (53:44):
Nobody will catch jam.

Speaker 1 (53:46):
I mean there was a relay team we watched and
my kids are jumping up and down on the couch.
I mean, it was all in. I watched sand volleyball
and dude, I don't know when the men sand volleyball plays.
But Chase Budinger, he used to play in the NBA,
is now beach volleyball for the Olympics. Like, what in
the hell, Yeah that's incredible.

Speaker 2 (54:04):
Yeah you can pick it up.

Speaker 1 (54:06):
Man, basketball. I mean they rolled. I watched some of
that and I was like, dang, watch soccer, men's and women's.
I mean, but dude, I've been watching everything. I've been
in love with the Olympics.

Speaker 2 (54:16):
Yeah, Jurantula was hot. I was on the wrong side
of that. I had some future parlays, but they all
started with Serbia plus twelve and a half, Serbia plus sixteen,
Serbia plus twenty one and a half. They lost by thirty.
So those parlays are shot. We will now move on
to other parlays.

Speaker 1 (54:33):
Yeah. I don't know what events are coming up or
win or what. And I watched them. Oh, I watched
bike racing through the woods. Awesome. That was so fun.

Speaker 2 (54:42):
As long as it is you're not the one they're
trying to inspire, it's for the youth, then kids will
want to pick it up and represent their country. You
don't have a future in the Olympics. I I have
no shot, right, But you're not who they're targeting. So
that you enjoy it. They don't care. They want a
mom to enjoy it and they want kids to like it.
That it makes it they want kids. Are your kids

(55:02):
enjoying it?

Speaker 1 (55:03):
My kids are jumping up and down on the couch
every race event Like that's target marketing.

Speaker 2 (55:08):
NBC.

Speaker 1 (55:09):
My my six year old. I'm telling you, whatever event
we turn it on, it is like he has been
a fan of that person his entire life. He screams
at the TV, jumps up and down, yells. I mean
he is one in it every freaking event.

Speaker 2 (55:24):
Like what's he rooting for? Which country?

Speaker 1 (55:27):
Usa?

Speaker 2 (55:28):
Ray, Mexico.

Speaker 1 (55:29):
Actually he does get a little confused with the France
flag because it's red, white and blue, and so he
thinks that that. He starts going, yeah, Dad, Usa, and
I'm like, no, nobody, that's France. He goes, but it's red,
white and blue, and I'm like, yeah, they gotta have
the stars. And he's like, but he's started to learn
and swimming. He can now see him in the pool
and he can tell you which one's USA.

Speaker 2 (55:46):
They show the flags. Is he more interest? Are the
kids more interested in the volleyball or male polo?

Speaker 1 (55:55):
What are you trying to say?

Speaker 2 (55:56):
I'm just saying back, I just remember growing up, man,
that's what I started to like. Summer Olympics. Man, you
got the volleyball.

Speaker 1 (56:01):
I turned into volleyball. The first nine they had pants on.
I was like, That's what I'm saying, Is that no?
But then during the day they had the short stop.
I watched the Netherlands versus I don't know who Lithuania
to the women. That was a pretty good one. Now
what women volleyball.

Speaker 2 (56:18):
It's nostalgic for me because that's the first time I
knew that a bathing suit would not have a middle
to It is when I learned it at the Olympics,
and I believe it was Shanghai two thousand and two,
nineteen ninety two, Shanghai. I have no idea, right, that's
when I learned that the women's bathing suit comes in
two pieces at times.

Speaker 1 (56:38):
That's pretty cool. That's a good memory.

Speaker 2 (56:40):
We got it a song.

Speaker 1 (56:43):
That was my weekend.

Speaker 2 (56:44):
Man.

Speaker 1 (56:44):
I watched the Olympics after Olympics. After Olympics. Man, it
was great, right, I say, we ended? Yeah? He can
you can you play a little bit of it?

Speaker 2 (56:58):
Keen.

Speaker 1 (57:03):
I have a good Monday, guys, good Monday. We out
go Usa, Go Usa. Happy birthday. Justin Hope is a
good one. Man.

Speaker 2 (57:13):
Needed you there? Man?

Speaker 1 (57:14):
Why you tired? Man?

Speaker 2 (57:15):
I mean, I was explaining craps to his tata. I
was explaining Roulette etiquette to Justin. I was dealing with
the guy that bets MLB parlays like a lunatic. I
needed you there for support.

Speaker 1 (57:29):
Yeah, I'm sorry. If you were spending the night, No,
I couldn't have anyway. If we did another day and
we were spending the night, I couldn't have done drive
two and a half hours, drive two and a half hours.

Speaker 2 (57:39):
But hey, I'm just telling you right now, the regret
and remorse you would wake up with on the next morning.
It's not a lot of smiling faces.

Speaker 1 (57:48):
Oh really. That's the worst is when you go to
one of those small ones.

Speaker 2 (57:52):
It's like it seems like it's a cold, musty cigarette
smoke filled until some sort of you gets there around
five pm.

Speaker 1 (58:01):
It's like they got their paycheck and they go and
they're trying to double it up and it gets real uncomfortable.

Speaker 2 (58:09):
When I went to the cashier, she gave me that
look like, tell me what you do and get me
out of this town. But I showed her that there
is a way to win at the casino and you
don't just have to be that dejected, depressed person. And
she saw the twinkle in my eye and I think
she said, there's a way out of here. And whatever
game he was playing I'm going to start playing that
