Speaker 1 (00:01):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
Yeah. Man, oh man, it's freaking cold. Man. That's not
what I want to talk about. I I want to
start the show. I just want to say, you know,
good morning to everyone. And I need to know over
the holidays if people want to box family episode, oh
box balling, Well no, just a box podcast. You know,

(00:23):
get Chess Day. Maybe we can get no teeth Keith
gather around some microphones. I don't know if people are
in the mood for that.

Speaker 1 (00:30):
Well, they didn't comment on My Family's three minute episode,
but it could have been. Bazer was a little faded.
She was funny in it, though.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
Can I say that you posted pictures and my wife goes,
Bazer looks drunk.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
Oh, we went in there hand bone. Boomer was the
DD and I said, probably was. We were sauceduff. This
is her birthday.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
That makes sense on why you came to the studio
because you were down on Broadway and that's why you
did the family episode.

Speaker 1 (00:59):
But yes, we were golfing and we did brunch there.
We walked over here to get the car and I said,
let's show you the studio. That led to a podcast.
Then Baser wanted to go to one Christmas bar so
we went to one Christmas bar and Tristan took it
us all home. Boomer he is the d D and
it was epic and we listened to Vandy Vall's the
entire ride home.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
That's pretty cool. Does Boomer appreciate being the DD? Does
he understand that you guys are hammered?

Speaker 1 (01:24):
Does he under Yes, he understands. He also it was
the first two days I was just driving. I'm like
and then I thought, well I probably should take advantage
of this kid being a designated driver. Right, okay, cool, Yeah,
this is awesome. We went shopping, had some drinks. We
went where else did we go? We went to not
telling you guys a name. We went to some with
our one of our favorite places at Indian Lake, Amazing restaurant,

(01:47):
Amazing for Baser's birthday. Boomer was d D. There, we
got Christmas drinks. We went to Virgin Hotels. They have
the Moose Knuckle bar. Ooh. For the holidays, we were
gonna do a show and my sister said, no, I
have to leave in twelve hours, so we stopped on
the shotski. But it was a blast. But yes, when

(02:08):
we did that podcast, we were a little liquored up
if you will. As the kids say, The kids say,
we were soaking wet. We were as the kids say,
saw tad, as the kids say, we were cooked, as
the kids say. And then yeah, that Boomer and Tristan Boomer,
Tristan Henley. They didn't talk much. Muff didn't talk much

(02:30):
on the pod.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
So maybe that's why we didn't get buy the Muff
not talk a lot. I don't understand. She comes in
here and talks all the time. When we're in Vegas.
She interrupts the pod for like every thirty seconds. And
then you get her the mic, you give her an
actual microphone, and she doesn't know how to talk.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
I don't believe they knew that they were on at first.
And then when I told them they were on there
there was that immediate reaction of oh, I've had some drinks,
Oh are you recording me? Are we live on the air?
There was all that. They finally get warmed up a
little bit, but we were always in a rush. We
had to go shopping at four point thirty. We had
to meet justin all the way back in Indian Lake,
so we had so many everybody had their head was

(03:06):
in a million different places, got him in one place
for three minutes, and then I set him free. They're
running up and down all the sales floor. We were
sitting in every chair. I think one of them went
and took a pee on Rick's desk. It was awesome.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Have you ever thought about hooking justing up with Muff?
They hung out?

Speaker 1 (03:24):
But no, I mean no, my sister there has been
times when she's semi dated my friends. But no, I'm good,
I'm good. I don't need my sister dating my friends.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
You're trying to keep separation of church and state. Yes, yeah,
very It gets very complicated. You don't want that because
then it's like, oh you so, are you my friend?
Or do I like, oh, you're fighting with my sister,
but you want to go have a beer with me?
That would be kind of weird. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
I remember. There was a New Year's Eve one time
I was supposed to party with my best friend, Marcus Mishka.
He's since died, and he ended up hanging out with
my sister because my sister came and I thought I
thought me and Marcus were supposed to hang in the
hot tub. So then I realized, oh, wait, what you

(04:10):
and Marcus Mishka, We're supposed to hang out in the
hot tub.

Speaker 2 (04:13):
Wow, go ahead.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
It was Best Western. And it wasn't just me and Marcus.
It was me, Stu, Marcus, Mishka. There was another girl
named Alison, and then maybe they had one other friend
and we're all going to meet up and hang and
my sister got thrown in the mix, which is fine,
but it's the first time that we were in high
school and a little bit older. And then I realized, oh,

(04:36):
if I bring my sister around, sometimes there might be
interests from my friends and my sister because she's only
two years difference. And so that's the first time I
kind of realized that. So, yes, now I've made the
separation of church and state. Just it's not like dating
sister stuff.

Speaker 2 (04:50):
Drew the line in the sand, like, hey, let's not
do this. It gets a little awkward. I understand. I
totally get it. And I mean, luckily none of my
friends ever dated my sister, so so that's really good.
That would have been awkward to any of your friend's date
what I know, Chess Day, they didn't day. They were
never supposed to share a hot tub on New Year's Eve,

(05:11):
nothing like that. But I did, like I'm telling you,
like I'm New Year's Eve, speaking of, I did help
my brother out one New Year's Eve because he came
to see me a Pure Ultra lounge on Sixth Street
when we used to do the ball drop. And the
coolest thing ever is we actually went up on the
roof and would look over Sixth Street and yell on

(05:33):
the microphone, all right, where are you guys ready for
the ball drop? And you want to talk about the
easiest way to get a chick? Like any chick in
Pure Ultra Lounge, you go up to her on New
Year's even say hey, you want to go on the
roof and watch the ball drop with me? Because not
everybody gets to go up there. Only there's only like
ten people up there.

Speaker 1 (05:52):
I've been in VIP before and that.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Is an easy, easy what we can go up there
and watch the ball drop? Uh, you're welcome. Batter's Box.
That was before he was married.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Batter's Box. Did you guys to each have somebody to kiss? Yes,
you never want to be it's just you and a
dude and everybody else is kissing. You're just looking at
each other.

Speaker 2 (06:15):
So bro, Hey Marcus, dude, Hey, this hot. Well, this
water's kind of hot.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
Man.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
Yeah, dude, So what are your new Year's plans? Well, man,
you know, I'm gonna probably head down to you know,
the Lower pe for a couple of days, and then
you know, I'm gonna really turn my life around, you
know what I mean, no more hot tubs, and I'm
really gonna buckle down on work and school and.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
Cause it's just those ten seconds when the couples are
all kissing and you're the only single dude that you realize,
holy crap, this is a loser way to start the
new year.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
That is pretty awkward.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
It is you realize at the times you're single, sure
you have that when you kiss, you neck your chick,
you're grabbing her button stuff. But you'll always remember back.
I remember South Beach where it his place on the
west side of Austin. Him and his chick are kissing.
Billy was kissing on a girl. Stan Skalski was kissing
on a girl. I didn't have any chick, and I
would just in that moment, I was like, dang, this

(07:08):
is such a loser way to start the new year.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
I do remember a couple of times I was in
Vegas for New Year's and my wife, you know, she
did the marketing for the Cosmopolitan, so she was in
charge of the concerts, and there was always a concert
on New Year's Eve. Red Hot Chili Peppers was one year,
Pamela Anderson No Bruno Mars was one year. And so
I would be at the concert and she'd be working,

(07:33):
and they would do the ten nine eight.

Speaker 3 (07:37):
Seven, six, five four three two one, Happy New Me,
and I'd look around and my wife would be somewhere working,
and I'd be like, all right.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
Cool, this is awesome. And it's awkward to stand at
a concert by yourself, Like it's just like you're just there,
like just standing there and everyone's watched you come back
hang out all right, hey hey, And then you know,
after a few songs or whatever, I don't know how long,
she'd be done for the night and we could hang out.
But it was just like, man, this is weird. But
usually we brought friends. We usually bring Garrett and his

(08:13):
wife and Ryan. They would all come on New Year's.
It was a great time. Man, I'm gonna tell you
I missed going out on New Year's. It was the
most fun night ever. Or was it the most overrated night. Ever,
I don't know because you spent so much more money
to go to the same damn places.

Speaker 1 (08:30):
All the ones here in Nashville have been bad. Maybe
the first one was good with Baser all the other
ones you're preparing for work in like two days, so
we don't even stay up much less go downtown. And
it's always when the temperature drops below zero that that
New Year's party on Broadway. Now they have it at
like the coliseum or something. It's always so cold.

Speaker 2 (08:51):
Yeah, and I thought it was cold in Austin when
we do the ball drop on the top of Pure
and then I moved here and it is one hundred
times colder, and I would take that weather all day long.
But this year, I've got an idea that someone told
me about, and I don't know if we're gonna do it,
but they said, the skating rink has a balloon drop

(09:13):
for New Year's Eve for the kids, and I'm like,
that sounds fun.

Speaker 1 (09:19):
You get in the balloons, you end up grabbing another
guy's wife.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
Not even not only that they do it at eight pm.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
That's pretty money.

Speaker 2 (09:26):
So the kids think they've stayed up till midnight celebrating
Happy New Year. And it's eight o'clock and it's like,
all right, kids, we gotta go home, we gotta get
to bed.

Speaker 1 (09:36):
But you know, some of those rednecks up where I'm at,
they go to this balloon drop specifically to grab another
guy's wife, probably because it's like it's basically an adult
version of that phone party. Yeah, oh hey, kid, come
back here, he accidentally and it skates. You can fall
into people.

Speaker 2 (09:51):
Oh you sorry?

Speaker 1 (09:52):
Oh you know how many butts and boves you're grabbing
from six pm to eight pm.

Speaker 2 (09:57):
I don't even know how many balloons there are. There
may be it's like twenty balloons. I don't know if
it's like thousand balloons, one hundred balloons. Someone just told
me about it, said, hey, if you haven't need something
for New Year's, you want to do something with your kids,
And they ring in the New year early. The skating
rink does a New Year's thing, and it's like the
ball drop is at eight pm, a balloon drop, not
ball drop. But they didn't tell me if it's like

(10:19):
extravagant or if it's just like kind of lame.

Speaker 1 (10:21):
The one by me, if it's the one you're talking about,
is amazing because it's just that outdated that makes it awesome.
Little bar around back that secret kids don't even know
about it. They got a bungee jumping thing that just
has a couple of cords that maybe aren't working properly.
You got that worker that's hairs all messed up and
he's half asleep. But they're safe. The kids are safe.
You go and do the arcade games slightly messed up.

(10:44):
You can kind of cheat at the claw game that
if it's that one, it is great.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
We've only been to one. We haven't been to one
by you, and this one it just literally has a
pizza bar. You got buy alcohol, you can buy sodas,
some ice cream, popcorn, and then they have a few
arcade games and then they got the roller skating rink, dude,
and that is it. That is all they have. And
it is so good because it takes you back and
the corners are dark, just like back in the day

(11:12):
when we would go and go to the corner, the
right hand corner, and that's where you go make out
with chicks on a Friday night, and we went there
every friday in middle school. God, it was the place
to be.

Speaker 1 (11:24):
I went I did win to one this weekend. Yeah,
it's crazy you're talking about.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
This, and did you feel did it feel fun?

Speaker 1 (11:31):
I didn't get on the ice. They all did, Baser.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
This isn't ice. We're talking You went ice skating whatever,
it's hallt Yes, they look you didn't get on it.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
No, because the last thing I want to do is
fall like Eddie and break my arm. So Boomer gets
on starting basketball player. He had a lot to risk,
a lot to lose. Baser has weak bones from cancer.
She had a lot to risk and a lot to lose,
and she's out there skating. My sister has a bad
leg and she's out there skating. And they had basically Henny,

(12:02):
who's a newborn at five years old, out there skating.

Speaker 2 (12:05):
It wasn't smart, top down.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
They all got off the ice within five minutes.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
My question is do you know how to walk?

Speaker 1 (12:12):
Like?

Speaker 2 (12:12):
Are you some kind of coordinated?

Speaker 1 (12:15):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (12:16):
Then how hard is it to get out there on
the roller skates and roll around the rink.

Speaker 1 (12:20):
There were kids flying. A lot of them were going
behind people and grabbing them.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
Now I do see kids that are flying and going
in and out, and that's a little crazy because my
kids still use the little stand the like the PCP
the pipe thing that they built and PVC pipe and
they I don't know, it's a helper, it's a guiter.
I can still skate. And I went to a birthday
party like there was other adults and they got on there,

(12:47):
and I'm like, I felt so much better about myself
that I was able to just go. Like I was like, Okay,
maybe I don't consider myself super athletic, but I'm like,
what do these people do all day? Are they just
not using their body anymore? So they totally forgot how
to move their body or they are just not comfortable

(13:08):
getting on skates.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
There were these three high schoolers. They looked like basketball players.
They were so tall. They fell on their asses ten
times that one would.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
Fall and grab the other two. Oh that's the worst.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
And I kept saying to myself, I haven't done it
for twenty years. It can't be that hard.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
It can't be That's what I don't understand.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
And Bezer was going slow, but she says she went
all the time as a kid. I don't think we
went as much.

Speaker 2 (13:31):
We went a lot as a kid.

Speaker 1 (13:32):
You did. We didn't. We're in the country. You were
in the Inner City.

Speaker 2 (13:35):
I was in the Inner City, and I'm gonna tell
you this. My dad a couple of years ago, he
went to the roller skating rink and it was one
of my sister's kid's birthdays, and he was like, I'll
get out there and skate with you. Oh no, he
put the skates on. They stood up, whoa, whoa, whoa,

(13:55):
grabbed the table, said I think I'm gonna take the
skates off.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
He didn't even go on.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
Didn't even go on, dude, didn't even get out of
the table area.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
The pea filled carpet.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
The pea field, Oh god, dude, it is so nasty.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
And the skates. Oh, at the place I go to
as well.

Speaker 2 (14:10):
They're so grol the skates. I love how they clean
them every time. They just take the little sprite. Same, Oh,
that takes care of it.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
Same with the bowling shoes. It's one little spray in
the middle.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
Yeah, there you go, perfect guy.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
I'll take out the fungus from the truck driver.

Speaker 2 (14:23):
They just put them on. I'm not sure, not sure
that's how it works, but hey man, whatever you go,
let me put those on. Doesn't bother me because you're
wearing socks. But I do. Here's the problem though, I do,
so every time I take my socks off, I smell them.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
Okay, so after.

Speaker 2 (14:41):
Roller skating or bowling. It's kind of weird because it's
been in other people's fungus. But I there's something weird,
something that I have to do every time I smell
my socks and I don't know why it is.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
And one other thing you're not gonna but yes, have
them on the podcast to wrap a bowl on that,
have your family on the podcast. But also with the
bowling rink, what is it called bowling lanes? Uh, bowling alley,
bowling alley. With that one in the Dirty Shoes, you
never realize how important it is to sit at the
table that's directly in front of your pins. We had
a family sit at our table, so we had to

(15:14):
sit at their table. Every time they went to their pins,
they had to walk around our table. Every time I
would finish rolling, I would look at their table because
your line of sight is directly in front of them,
And every time we would finish up, we would walk
in front of their entire table so they couldn't see
their family bowling.

Speaker 2 (15:36):
It's amazing to me how hard it is for people
to understand where you're supposed to be. I got a
bowling alley.

Speaker 1 (15:44):
That's why I'm saying, you got to go to my spot,
because there's gonna be some butt grabbing it that balloon drop,
and I guarantee it that my place is wild. It
is just enough rednecks and a little bit of liquor.
It is something to be seen. One of those where
the girl says, oh, I'll give you three wrist bands,
only charge it for two.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
Oh bosss ain't looking. Oh hey, a little discount there
she goes.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
She goes, you want to do arcade, bungee jump, laser tag,
some other thing where you go in a room and
race this stuff. I wouldn't in the bathroom, didn't do that.
Roller Derby, bowling pins, all that for like sixteen dollars.

Speaker 2 (16:24):
That's really good. That's my spot, Dade. That's the kind
of a spot.

Speaker 1 (16:27):
The lady said, sixteen.

Speaker 2 (16:28):
I go, yeah, we'll take four. Hey, did you ever
see Roller Derby back in the day on TV? It
was awesome, dude. That was so good. It was like
I think it was on after or before American Gladiators.
It was the coolest thing I have ever seen.

Speaker 1 (16:43):
Because the chicks were hot too.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
And they would beat the hell out of each other.
My question is, how did people decide, you know what,
let's roll around and cause and jump, kick and fight.
Who invented that? Bring it back? Who would do that?

Speaker 1 (16:57):
They were trying to make a break. Who would go
on a and call themselves the real world? People are
trying to get their break.

Speaker 2 (17:04):
It's a great point.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
Who would go on a show and bang twenty other chicks?
People trying to be on the Bachelor?

Speaker 2 (17:09):
Bachelor? That's right, Gosh, you're right. I don't even think
about it. Let's start the show so we can take
a break.

Speaker 1 (17:15):
We'll do it after the break.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
Shouldn't we start the show?

Speaker 1 (17:17):
Yeah, we'll do it live.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
We ah the one, two three? So losers?

Speaker 1 (17:27):
What up?

Speaker 2 (17:27):
Everybody? I am lunchbox. I know the most about sports,
So I give you this sports facts, my sports opinions,
because I'm pretty much a sports genius.

Speaker 1 (17:35):
What up, y'all? It says, And I'm from the North.
I'm in Alpha Male. I live on the North side
of Nashville with Baser, my wife. We live in the
country at two point three three three three three three
three three acres and we have two kids at Vanderbilt
the electrophysiology unit. Hopefully somebody's able to check on them.
Bazer did say they are defrosting ever since Justin has
left his position. And that's about it. That's all I got.
DI have a heart attach probably when I'm seventy two

(17:57):
and a half. Other than that, nothing new over to you.

Speaker 2 (17:59):
Hopefully this audio is okay. Ray has gone back to
not wearing headphones. But we'll take a break and we
will be right back.

Speaker 1 (18:05):
It's because we freaking are doing it in between other things.

Speaker 2 (18:10):
You're right, That's why I started doing it in the
first place. I apologize, we'll take a break. I gotta
say I love my wife, right I do, of course, yeah, yeah,
I do love my wife. But I think she makes
my life a little difficult. Sometimes.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
It's supposed to make it easier.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
It is. It's supposed to be like, oh, you know,
life is so fun when you have a wife and
or a husband, and they make it so much more enjoyable.
And she does sometimes.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
Not to hijack you, but that's my biggest piece of vice.
People say, oh, should you get married to you? Guys,
they make your life way easier because there's stuff Guys
aren't good at that. Women are amazing at you compliment
each other. It really is an amazing reason to get married.
You gotta love the person, time spent, you're never alone.
You enjoy nights instead of just be like, oh I'm
by my felveth life that. There's other reasons, you know,

(18:57):
it's there are reasons to get married. Continue.

Speaker 2 (19:01):
So after a day of work, it's nice to go
home before the kids get home from school. Yeah, sometimes that,
but sometimes you just want to relax and just have

(19:22):
quiet time and turn on a TV show and just
veg out on the couch for thirty forty five minutes
to an hour whatever an hour?

Speaker 1 (19:31):
Jeez man, Yeah, great, wife, Hey, get off the couch.
What freaking tells us? On? Thanks? Hate hijack you again?

Speaker 2 (19:39):
Go ahead? Thanksgiving?

Speaker 1 (19:40):
She tells me and Boomer we can go play video games.
We got to halftime of our game and she goes, hey, hey,
what are you guys doing? We have so much to
do before people get over. Here we go. You said
we could play a video game where a halftime game's over,
You're done. It was sixteen to sixteen, it's over. Thanksgiving time?

Speaker 2 (19:57):
Okay, Well we tied does that mean I have to
go kiss my sister real quick?

Speaker 1 (20:01):
Continue?

Speaker 2 (20:02):
Wait, I forgot to ask you about so your parents
didn't come, It was just your sister.

Speaker 1 (20:06):
Yeah. Parents stayed there because they got dogs, cats and
they were invited. It is a long trip. Though they
both recently had surgery, they're gonna be making the trip
in like four months. They would have had to take
multiple vehicles. I believe it was. It's tough with Baser's
birthday at the exact same time as Thanksgiving, because Maria
wanted to celebrate Muffy with baezer birthday. My parents that

(20:29):
doesn't necessarily involve them. They don't want to bounce around
Broadway and go to Christmas bars.

Speaker 2 (20:33):
Doesn't really make sense.

Speaker 1 (20:34):
So it's it's the because Baser's birthday and Thanksgiving at
the same time. That's why it was a weird situation.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
Back to me and just let me know when you
want to hijack again. It's great. I love getting hijacked.

Speaker 1 (20:45):
No, I'm that was my final hijack.

Speaker 2 (20:47):
Thank you good. So the other day I come home
from work, tired, ready to relax, and I walk in
the door and there she is sitting with two neighbor
as having coffee. No, so, hey, hey, this is Kimberly

(21:10):
and this is the name or I never seen a
new name, or I never seen I knew the other one.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
What's your name?

Speaker 2 (21:16):
And she's like, oh hi, we're just having some coffee
catching up. I'm like cool. So now, exactly what do
I get to do while you guys are having coffee
and talking and chatting and being in the living room
where I want to sit down and watch TV and
relax and veg out.

Speaker 1 (21:34):
Go to your quarter?

Speaker 2 (21:36):
What's my quarter?

Speaker 1 (21:37):
I mean you probably have four of them.

Speaker 2 (21:40):
We got a TV in the living room.

Speaker 1 (21:43):
What are you the log cabin in the woods with
the TV upstairs?

Speaker 2 (21:46):
No, we do have one in the toy room, but
that couch isn't as comfortable. You know. The couches we
have right outside the studio not comfy. Not comfy. That's
what we have in there. That's more for where I
put the kids. If I want to watch TV and
they want to watch TV, I make them go in
the toy room. And that's not really my nice relaxing,

(22:08):
comfortable like wide couch where I can just kind of
lay down and watch TV.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
You want to be super comfortable.

Speaker 2 (22:13):
Exactly, and then I also, I gotta take a dump
brutal and it is it awkward to excuse myself? Why
I go to the Excuse me, guys, I gotta go
to the back. You know, they know where you're going
if you go into the bathroom.

Speaker 1 (22:29):
Heather knows when she comes over. I go in bathroom,
fans on sinks on. Toilet's getting flushed. Sorry, it's a
human bodily function.

Speaker 2 (22:38):
It's not about the flushing of the toilet. Excuse the smell, ladies.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
I'll hit it with some some reaes.

Speaker 2 (22:43):

into the living room.

Speaker 1 (22:50):
Hey, so how is your day? Ben?

Speaker 2 (22:53):

Speaker 1 (22:54):

more of a spur of the moment, just coffee thing.

(23:41):
I'm like, come on, like I just want to relax
for a minute, Like go over to their house, their
their husbands aren't coming home from work after a long
day of work at noon one o'clock. I want to relax. Thanks,
So just got to ruin my day, man. So that's
what I mean. My wife is supposed to make life easier.
In this instance, she made my life harder.

Speaker 1 (24:03):
You would you rather that? Or you come home from
work on a Friday, you're ready to crack a couple open,
turn the TV loud. You got McAfee playing. You know
you're you're just ready to have a day. You're turning
a little bit of music on, and you got I
have a conference call at one it's with forty other
people in upper management. I need no silence. And you
also need to hold the cat for an hour and

(24:26):
no nothing, no laundry, vacuum, no no, no, no video games.

Speaker 2 (24:31):
No.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
For the next hour, I need complete silence. So I'm
home from work on a Friday, happy and I'm tiptoeing
around eating the quietest food I can find, like a grape.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
It's awesome.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
It's the weekend. I mean, which would you rather have?
Pick your poison?

Speaker 2 (24:48):
Great?

Speaker 1 (24:48):
Point great, I'll both sit outside. At least I can
make noise and anyway, she asked me.

Speaker 2 (25:00):
I was like, Hey, so I got this call for
Coaches Convention. Do you want to jump on the call
with me? No? No, I'm good, Like I don't need
I already told you everything we need to do. Oh,
we're gonna go. You know, we're gonna go to John Daly's.
We're gonna look at it and everything. Do you want
to come with us?

Speaker 1 (25:15):
You could be the cell though, You're the final thing
they need.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
I said, no, no, no, I already know what it
looks like. I'm good. That's why I said we should
do it at John Daly's. I think that's a good spot. Okay, Well,
I guess I'll go by myself and I'll meet Marisol.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
There, meet the staff.

Speaker 2 (25:30):
Yeah. She's like, I'm gonna go meet you know, the
GM and everything. I'm like, all right, yeah, just let
me know how it is, Like, I bet they're really nice.
It's a great place.

Speaker 1 (25:38):
What's your name, bubble girl?

Speaker 2 (25:40):
Hey, I'm lunchbox okay, And she's like, it only should
take twenty minutes. Hour later she's home and I'm like,
see it isn't just twenty minutes.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
Will you ladies be wearing this MLK weekend or a
different type of lingerie? I mean work attire.

Speaker 2 (25:53):
I mean, who knows what if John Daly stops by.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
He could because names on it and it it's gonna
be the off season. It's a Florida State bar, so
I believe he will go there from time to time
to watch a Florida State game. Maybe a basketball game
is playing the same weekend. That's what you gotta hope for.
I thought he was an Arkansas guy, That's what I thought.
But it's a known Florida State bar. Okay, you're right,

(26:19):
so he is, so you actually are rooting for an
Arkansas game. But apparently it's known they want. Every TV
goes to Florida State. Been there seeing it firsthand with
Justin and Baser.

Speaker 2 (26:29):
That's a smart thing.

Speaker 1 (26:30):
If you own a bar I'm talking every TV on
every floor. Ray, how many co eds are there? Hell?

Speaker 2 (26:35):
Yeah, No, I think it's a smart marketing tool to
just make yourself a so and so bar. But how
do you decide that, man, there's enough Florida State fans
in Nashville that this bar will be popular in Poppin'.

Speaker 1 (26:49):
Justin in his Ohio State Jersey. I'm like, you could
have picked a better article of clothing. We couldn't stick
out like more of a sore thumb. Only dude in
there with a Jersey, not Florida State.

Speaker 2 (27:01):
Huh. So there was that many Florida State people.

Speaker 1 (27:04):
The whole thing, Dude, we almost felt outrun.

Speaker 2 (27:07):
You know what I'm saying is, I can't believe there's
that many Florida State people here.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
Massive there's a huge conglomerate.

Speaker 2 (27:15):
Huh. I wonder if there's a Utsa bar.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
No, but there is an Ohio State, there is a Cubs,
there is a Michigan there's a Cubs bar. I believe
it's the same one as the Michigan bar. It's the headquarters. HQ. Oh,
they have a Cubs flags. Used to walk by it
when we live downtown Valentines. Used to be Clemson, Georgia, Alabama, Georgia,

(27:44):
Mississippi state. And then underground Underground is a known one
that's the Ohio state. So yeah, a lot of these
will just put a flag up. Huh right, what about
roygbif fly one of those things, now, that's on Church Street.

Speaker 2 (28:00):
Correct, that's where Abiza it be. That's how you do it.
At the Christmas party a couple of weeks ago, his partner,
he was like, they don't even call me by my name.
They call me Abiza because there they like I went
to Abiza. And he's like, I guess we gotta take
his partners like, I guess we should take a trip
to Abiza to make it true. And I was like,
he was like, tell him how you say it? And

(28:21):
I was like Abiza. I was like, but Ray does
it so much better. I was like, I don't do
it justice. I'm not good at the Ibiza. I don't
know why.

Speaker 1 (28:28):
It was a Thursday the other day, maybe it was
a Friday. I was just in a great moon. Now
not only did I hit him with that, I go
and be the and Abta goes.

Speaker 2 (28:36):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (28:37):
I liked that, so his.

Speaker 2 (28:40):
New name might be it be the We'll take it break,
We'll be right back. Oh all right, right, we got
some emails. Oh boy, you want some emails?

Speaker 1 (28:54):
Well, I lost the sound effects. Oh my gosh, is
that that sounds like it's time to go fire up
the tractor.

Speaker 2 (29:04):
Boys? Troy from Australia here.

Speaker 1 (29:07):
Oh boy, that's a good guy, good dude.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
Proud past podcast guest. I'm coming back to Nashville in June. Wait,
what happened to the convention? When you were here? You
said you were gonna come for the convention. But and
this time, let's get the pod content rolling by having
a night out in Nashville. We can do it nice
and early. So Ray is home and in bed by
eight with lunch as our guide. What could possibly go wrong?

(29:32):
Troy from down Under?

Speaker 1 (29:35):
And I will agree with him on that. Not gonna
mention the show, But the show now doesn't drink, really,
the show that I listened to, or maybe I'm talking
about the Big show. Anyways, when you don't go out
and you don't drink, it's tough to have content. But
this show that I listened to, all the guys stopped drinking,

(29:59):
and like now they just when they go to events,
they'll just go experience it before boom, they're pounding drinks.

Speaker 2 (30:05):
Oh I'm so hungover.

Speaker 1 (30:06):
We gambled all night. Now none of them do any
of that. So I'm like, it makes for better content
when you actually go out in the city. Maybe come
and do your radio show the next day hungover. It's
great content. And why did my screen just black out?
We're back? It makes for good content, And I'll hang
up and listen.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
You have to go do things to get stories. If
you literally just watch TV all day, you don't really
have anything to talk about. It makes it hard to
get on here and be entertaining and you're reading something
like something is wrong? Are you okay?

Speaker 1 (30:43):
No, we're good. The whole screen just blacked out, though,
and that's freaking you out. No, we're back, man, we're back.

Speaker 2 (30:48):
You good? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (30:50):
What was your thought? I just had to multitask while
you filibustered for ten seconds, but you couldn't even do
it for five seconds.

Speaker 2 (30:55):
No, because I saw you were I was saying that, Really,
if you don't go do things, if you don't go
out to dinner, if you don't go to friends houses,
if you don't go to neighborhood gatherings, you're not gonna
collect stories. Yes, you're just gonna be uh correct. It's
like I went to my son's basketball practice a couple
of nights ago, and they practiced at a high school,

(31:17):
and the high school was getting done with their practice.
These guys are good at basketball. Basketball. I feel like
I don't remember the kids. Yeah, those high school kids.

Speaker 1 (31:29):
Oh, I thought a kid. No, No, they're terrible, the
next Lebron.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
No. But I'm saying these guys were draining three really
just draining is one left. He had his headphones in. Hush, hush, hush,
big tall guy whoosh from the top of the key.
I mean, they were draining, and they got handles. And
I noticed a lot of the high school coach had

(31:54):
trash cans set up all over the court, having them
dribble around trash cans.

Speaker 1 (32:00):
It sounds I hear at work, I change them.

Speaker 2 (32:02):
So it made me realize that maybe the new basketball
is you don't put cones out, you put trash cans out,
because I guess they're kind of wider like a human.

Speaker 1 (32:11):
Yeah, and I will too. I mean, now AI can
guard the people, probably, But what I will say is,
now I watch Boomers game back, it would blow your mind.
There's no mid range.

Speaker 2 (32:22):
It's all threes, lay up.

Speaker 1 (32:23):
There was no jump I'm not I'm not being sensationalizing
it at all. There was only three pointers or layups.
There was no jump shots. It is wild how the
game has changed.

Speaker 2 (32:34):
That's why DeMar DeRozan he's an artifact in the NBA.
He is the mid range. He doesn't like shooting threes.
He likes getting to that mid range. Jimmy Butler barely
shoots any threes, but at least he's he's pretty good.
DeRozan is just that mid range and it doesn't work.
The analytics say, hey, go for two. It drives me.
I know it's crazy, but you get a fast break

(32:56):
and it's wide open two on one and the guy
pulls up at three and shoots the three, and I
want to lose my mind.

Speaker 1 (33:02):
Well, the game, the game is changing right before our
only eyes. I hadn't looked at a basketball over under,
and I saw it. It's at two hundred and fifty.

Speaker 2 (33:12):
Now you must have been looking at the heat, dude.
These guys just fly the Miami Heat, just fly up
and down the court. I mean, is that an All
Star game? Over under? They are like the Miami Heat
are like just They're like Carl Lewis, up and down
the court all day long.

Speaker 1 (33:31):
I know you guys don't know the history of gambling
because a lot of you guys just got out of
your attractors and you just now became legal in your state.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
I got a question, not to hijack, what percentage of
listeners of the three hundred and sixty five people that
listen do you think actually.

Speaker 1 (33:48):
Gamble fifty percent or more? Whoa Abby gambles? So that's
a woman example, Amie gambles. Woman example bones gambles, Eddie gambles.
You gamble, I don't gamble recovering I'm clean. So there
you go. There's your stats right there. We got in
our own building. But what I was saying is this

(34:09):
the over under. When I first started gambling, you would
have some in the one hundreds. It'd be one eighty
nine for a Knicks defensive team. The highest it would
go is two nineteen Warriors. Now two nineteen is the lowest.
It goes two hundred and fifty. The game has evolved
so rapidly, and you just learned that going to high school.
I'm sure they could only shot three pointers.

Speaker 2 (34:30):
He did. He didn't do any layups. He did no layups.

Speaker 1 (34:33):
Hey, practice a couple of layups and.

Speaker 2 (34:36):
The one guy would dribble around the trash can go
out during pull up at three drain, drain, drain. I
was like, dang, these guys don't miss. I don't remember
the guys in my high school being that good as shooters.

Speaker 1 (34:50):
That's cool, though your kids have access to that gym.
Did you look to see if that team won?

Speaker 2 (34:55):
No, I didn't look. I have no idea if the
team is good or not, or if they just look
good in practice. Oh one of the Yeah. I mean
a lot of people could look good in practice when
no one's guarding him. Once you get in the game,
it's like your boy, what's his name, South Beach.

Speaker 1 (35:08):
It's like it's your family Box Family podcast in the streets. Hilarious.
They get on the podcast. Uh, my name's Jess. Hey,
you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (35:21):
How does Batter's box sound on the pot?

Speaker 1 (35:23):
Hey guy, this batter of the box. Now, they actually
do a great job. It's just a funny bit to
make fun of them. They do great for a family.
After bringing my family in here, Tristan didn't talk Henny's.

Speaker 2 (35:32):
Like two, Yeah, he doesn't count. Baser was funny.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
Maria said, one word, you'd never know once you stick
a mic up somebody's oracle orfice.

Speaker 2 (35:42):
Yeah, yeah, that's weird that you stuck up their orfice.
But all right, we're out of here. Have a great day, guys,
enjoy it. I don't know what you're doing today, probably
taking a nap. But yeah, happy birthday to whoever's birthday
it is. And we forgot to play the batter's box
clip when we mentioned him, so he'll be hurt.

Speaker 1 (35:59):
What if everybody's box?

Speaker 2 (36:01):
All right, that was a great pod. I think that
was good. I think that was good.

Speaker 1 (36:07):
Well, and they said, hey, end of the year, make
sure your podcasts are bringing it.

Speaker 2 (36:11):
And I mean we're bringing it. I mean we are
closing out that you're strong.

Speaker 1 (36:14):
Can you believe some of the podcasts we're going to
take two weeks off. I said, we would never do that.

Speaker 2 (36:18):
For sorely not. We would never leave Sore Losers Nation hanging.
Hey that's hopefully they o. No, we're gonna leave him
hammered at the convention. Sore Losers dot Com get your tickets.
Emilka Day Weekend. We need to see you here. You
know what, Hey, I saw I forgot to tell you.
I saw Michael, the grocery store guy who from the convention.

(36:39):
My Michael, No, you're Michael. He was at the convention,
the guy that owns the grocery stores. Him and his wife.
We're at the Folds of Honor a couple of weeks ago,
spending money. They are so awesome, and they were like, hey,
we're locked and loaded ready for convention. No they're not.

Speaker 1 (36:56):
Yeah they are, That's what I'm talking about.

Speaker 2 (36:59):
And they are back.

Speaker 1 (37:00):
Yeah, I mean, we need to talk to Michael about
maybe a little after party at their suite that they got.

Speaker 2 (37:06):
Over there at the Hampton Inn. Yeah, that's what they
call it.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
It doesn't start with that, starts with a number. Oh
oh oh
