Speaker 5 (17:35):
Good guys.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Ryan has three, Marty and Parrish both have two, Sauce

Speaker 1 (17:41):
There's four left. Here's number nine of et. Clue number
one has a lattice pattern. Clue number two has levels.
Speaker 5 (18:00):
Ryan Tower, Let's go.
Speaker 7 (18:04):
Ryan, Come on, Ryan, Ryan, legit.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
I am all on board here.
Speaker 7 (18:10):
Let's go.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Ryan is in levels.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
I mean you obviously know what lattice means. Otherwise it's
a word. If you don't know what that means, I
don't know how you got it. You clearly know how to.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
Believe what you put on cheeseburgers. Yes, Salid right, dude, Wow,
So Ryan, here we go. Here's how cool this is? Ryan?
Already you have a two point lead.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
With three to go, if you get any of the
remaining three, you win your first ever day. Let's Ryan,
They're gonna want you back in the water pretty quickly
because this is crazy.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Let's go three to go, Ryan Jeffers going for the win.
Chris is mathematically out, Sauce. You're not out yet.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
You got to run the table, Sauce, but you could
still do this. Marney and Parrish are two back. Ryan
going for the win. Here's number ten et. Clue number
one debuted.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
In Glendale, Arizona. Clue number two. It has been famous globally.
Clue number three made over two billion dollars. Clue number
(19:21):
four over three and a half hours long. Clue number
five requires a ticket. Final clue Clue number six.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
This was one hundred and forty nine concerts across five continents.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Paul Marnie Eras to say, that is the Eras toured
in a lot of ways. Ryan, that was best case
scenario for you because Marnie and Parrish didn't get it.
So that was a big point for Ryan. No way
I was getting.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
So with two to go, Ryan has a two point lead,
so Marnie, you have to get the last two or
Parish has to get the last two.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Let's go Ryan any other combination.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
So if Ryan or Hawk or Sauce gets this one right,
this thing's over.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Good time, honk, let's go Ryan going for the win.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Here's number eleven of I almost said eight era it
t e T Clue number one.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
This features letters. Clue number two is an exam Arnie,
I test nothing. I just tipped the hand by accidentally
saying I.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
But you were sitting on that one anyway. All right,
so Mark, come on, let's just leave it. It looks great.
Many look at this, all right. It all comes down
to this. If Ryan gets number twelve, he wins. If
Marnie gets it right, we have a tie breaker between
the two of them.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
But if a parish saucer Chris gets this, Ryan also wins.
Comes down to this, Ryan going for the win, Marny
going for the tie. Here's number twelve, the most pressure
he's ever been on.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
Number sweating number twelve of ET clue number one.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Often associated with manipulation. Clue number two. This is connected
to bluffing Clue number three. This is insincere clue number four.
(21:43):
Parents commonly make these. Marnie for the tie empty.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Threat Okay, okay, interesting, interesting and interesting.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Okay, Marty's trying to ruin the party. Yeah, but that's fine.
That's how this game works, supposed to be.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
So it comes down to this, No sauce and Mark
and Chris are out now, Ryan, this is a tiebreaker,
just a some of you and the only difference. Here's
the only difference. It's only three clues, not six. So
it's a little more to the point. If you ring
it and get it wrong, your opponent gets to hear
all of the remaining clues and then we'll have five
seconds to answer.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Gotcha.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
If neither of you get it, then we have a
second tiebreaker, and if we don't have that one, then
we're in trouble.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
These are a little bit easier, so be read. Yeah,
it goes a little bit more to the point.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Only three clues, all right, Ryan Jefferson, Marnie Gelliner overtime
for the win. Here's tiebreaker number one. Clue number one
is most commonly black.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Clue number two.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
It starts circular in a sense, but then ends up
rectangular once it's cut.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Final clue Clue number three.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
This is flexible heat resistant adhesive.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Five. Ryan, Ryan for the wind.
Speaker 5 (23:06):
Yes, electrical tape.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Take that that's a walk off haircuts.
Speaker 5 (23:18):
No haircuts. Everybody's scraggy for.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
Ryan.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Tape gets the wind. Wow, super rare. That was awesome. Awesome, Ryan,
let's go mas your thoughts.
Speaker 6 (23:32):
I couldn't get off of pizza when you're like rectangular
and circular and cut and I'm like.
Speaker 5 (23:37):
Pizza doesn't have E your t And I mean that's
just me. Maybe that's just me.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
He's not wrong, He's not wrong this game, Ryan, very
So I.
Speaker 5 (23:55):
Got tape after the adhesive partners, just figuring out.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
There you go, you backwards and it's not pizza, it's
tape works.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
I've never been so happy that I whimped out on
eyewitness testimony, didn't say there you go.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Well either way, So Ryan, I get. So there's a
guy on Twitter who is power Trip initials. That's not us,
even though it sounds like it is, and he keeps
track of stats like crazy.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
This is my guess.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
In the five hundred and fifty eight times we've played
this game, how many first timers have won?
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Maybe like five or four in that tournament's twins.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Writers, I think do young this first time? The guy
we had on the walking Chris Hardwick. It's got to
be like five or six maybe ever.
Speaker 5 (24:36):
He told you in my ear boy to get the
first two.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
That helps a boy. That's well done. That was awesome,
you man, that's more than zero.
Speaker 5 (24:48):
Made my I can't believe you had that low of
expectations for me.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
They make stuff up all the time. Oh man, that
was really really, you're good.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
I'm currently getting text messages congrats on the limy provis
right a great woe.
Speaker 6 (25:07):
Yeah, I had a bucket and the game the water bottles.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Ready, who's going to clean that up? Yeah? Brett back
over here. I will tell you.
Speaker 6 (25:19):
I based my prediction of zero on the fact that
when during the commercial break and Corey's explaining the rules
to you, and he was like the initials, and You're
like yeah, and you tell us the initials like every
clue and he's like, but the same initials. And Ryan
was like, it's the same initials for them, this guy.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (25:37):
When I was looking at the rules and and hey,
any helpful tips and tricks last night, it was all
of it was like, hey, you can get different initials.
So I just assumed it was like, you give us
a different initial every single time.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
No, it didn't see it was just a seemed to
bother you at all.
Speaker 5 (25:51):
No, No, I mean honestly, it might make it easier
to be the same because you can kind of start
thinking of you start you start thinking a different thing.
It's the whole time, and think Martins.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
When it's all said and done, you just guessed the
wrong tree long.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
Man.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
That was awesome.
Speaker 1 (26:11):

fun having you on for the last hour and a half.
You welcome back anytime and again.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
Now they're gonna want you back. I'll be back.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
We got to find a Friday during the season that
where it works out.
Speaker 5 (26:23):
We never have an off d Friday.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Friday.
Speaker 5 (26:27):
Roo would have a hard attack if I woke up
at That's a really good point.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
Hey, Ryan, Yes, I'm throwing out the first pitch a
couple of times this year, and I'm excited to come
to the games. Can I hang out in the like
in the dugout with you guys.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
You'll have to. You have to go through Mitch over here.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
I ain't anything up.
Speaker 5 (26:48):
There's a bench or you there's a bench right up
to the front of the rock, right, maybe you can,
maybe you can snack a seat next to him, did you, guys?
Speaker 1 (26:57):
And I know you?
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Do you guys?
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Remember when Bobby Valentine got ejected in the and came
back without with.
Speaker 9 (27:01):
The one of the funniest things I've ever said, a
manager gets ejected and came back with a costume on
so we could hide and dug, why can't we just
throw a mustache and a hat on Chris?
Speaker 2 (27:10):
No one, nobody would know.
Speaker 9 (27:11):
It looked like an assistant coach, right, or it looked
like Danny DeVito.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
One of those subway commercials. How sure?
Speaker 5 (27:22):
Exactly one word?
Speaker 2 (27:25):
They have him like above the he's like in the system,
he's in the h back.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
Now do you do you come up with all those
clues and all you.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
Just just that's like nine percent of my life. I
live a pretty empty existence. So no, it's impressive. Thanks anyway,
So can we quickly let me ask you the question
that I'm not trying to put you in a bad spot,
but we asked it off here a couple of hours ago.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
But we're on here before you got here. Uh, does
ownership matter at all of the players, like whether they
switch or not? This season? Does that impact you as
a player by like.
Speaker 5 (27:58):
In any job, if you're company is potentially getting bought
or your your bosses are potentially changing, like that has
that has an impact on you as an employee. So
looking at it from that perspective, yeah, of course, like
we're paying attention to it where we're watching what's happening.
But at the end of the day, if we go
out and do our job and as baseball players and
go play baseball, the rest of everything will take care
(28:20):
of itself because that's we're in control of one thing
and in what we do, and that's how we go
play on the field. So yeah, we're I'd be I'd
be naive and be lying if I said we're not
following what's happening with with the ownership situation, but that
is something that's completely out of our control and and
and what is in our control is playing baseball. Very cool.
(28:43):
I'm not trying to give I'm not trying to give
up politically correct answer. That's just like it's if if anything,
if you're if you're if your company is about to
be bought by someone random, you're kind of paying attention to, Hey,
who is a who's coming in and what's what's going
to happen? But you got to go to work every
day and and continue to do your job.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
Can I ask you another kind of tricky question, Have
you ever blacked out from drinking at Nag's Head?
Speaker 5 (29:06):
I actually don't drink at all. You go, so that's
an easy answer for that one.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Man.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
Man, I've had some good times on the Outer Banks though.
That's just beautiful out there.
Speaker 5 (29:14):
The show on Netflix Outer Banks is filmed a lot
where I live now. Yep, that's kind of around where
I am.
Speaker 7 (29:20):
Man.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
That area of the country is so beautiful and so underappreciated.
Speaker 5 (29:23):
It's beautiful, I mean where it's beautiful.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
What's the weather normally like when it's not covered in snow?
Speaker 5 (29:28):
Yeah, I mean it's all something.
Speaker 2 (29:29):

Speaker 5 (29:29):
It's a beach town, so it's hot. It's uh, but
we'll get when we get back early October. We'll get
them a couple of weeks, maybe three weeks, but maybe
a month of like some good weather. But then we'll
get into the I mean it's normally highs in the fifties,
lows in the low forties, maybe all winter.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
Do you have any gators or snakes?
Speaker 5 (29:45):

all we got. We got snakes. No gaters, No gators though,
