Let's drive.

Speaker 3 (02:02):
Together, Let's drive What a beautiful I thought you were
like putting the mic down, like we're finished. Beautiful time
to be in New Orleans, dude. It's like seventy five
degrees all week long, big game right by Bourbon Street.
Everyone's having a good time. We got the barstool, guys
hanging out the birthplace of Jazz, the birthplace allegedly the
birthplace of Jazz. I don't think it is, though, Mississippi

(02:22):
Delta Cha GPT told me I took a class. Shout
out Bruce com Forth, my teacher. He asked me not
to take the class. I don't think it is. I
think it's like a common misconception. And what do you
think is the Mississippi Delta.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
See, look, the birthplace of jazz is wildly recognized as
New Orleans.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
Well yeah, but I feel like Bruce com Forth, my
blues teacher at Michigan, ship on that and he was like,
a lot of people think it's this, but it's actually
the Mississippi Delta. Robert Johnson he sold to sold the
Devil at the cross Roads, those types of things, right crossroads. Uh, sure,

(03:00):
Motown's Memphis. No, I could tell that that was Motown
Records isn't Memphis. I'll say this, listen, this is not
a history podcast. This is a sports podcast. Our guest today,

(03:21):
we're the two stars, the hosts, a part of my tape,
the sports podcast in the world, just absolutely gracing them
with our presence. Hey, if you want to be in
the intro, you can go ahead and sit here. That
is that Detroit. That was a crazy mess. It was
a crazy mess.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
Big cats here fun fact Motown is in Detroit. Cat
GPT is correctt.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
GBT, Yes, but dude, great podcasts A lot of fun,
some some good bro time, talking a little bit of ball,
talking about the p m T how they started, when
they got to PFT and Big Cat, the way they
met absolutely beautiful.

Speaker 2 (04:03):
I do feel like we got into some good storytelling,
Yes do you think so, Bigcat. I feel like we
got into some good depths of the origin story of
both Big Cat and PFT finding a pardon my take
the surgeons of that while they're in the company and
you are a younger company that just got acquired by
Penn at the time, or churnin my.

Speaker 3 (04:22):
Fault, taking the leap of jumping into the podcast as
quickly as they did once PFT got to New York.
Just a crazy thing.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
Yeah, how Busting with the Boys can still can still
try to succeed outside of Barsols Sports by following everything
that they do. Yep, we'll just have to drop our
episodes a day later. But a lot of good stuff,
a lot of good stories. If you are in New
Orleans this week, highly recommend what is it the Acmeat
Oyster House. A lot of meat on those oysters, a
very good oysters.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
So one place will is eaton as we've been here.
We got here at ten o'clock today.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
Are you more of a raw or chargrilled oysters?

Speaker 3 (04:54):
I am more of a chargrold guy. I do like oysters.
It's not my favorite thing in the world. Like I
see the way you sell you and J Pece salivate
over it. I like a char char boiled. This is
called trouble char grilled, char grilled, charboiled whatever. Rockefeller style.
I like a little I like a little bit of
parmesan on there, some herbs, some butter. That's what I
like on.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
My You like a little Southern mix in your.

Speaker 3 (05:14):
Yeah, I like some fixings on top of my oysters.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
That's what I'm saying, the whole fixing thing. And that's
why I like the raw, because I feel like you
have a variety of things that you can do with
said oyster versus just having it one style.

Speaker 3 (05:23):
And I love your heads it. Let me take you
a little bit further. I like to get my charuboil
oysters to already have fiixins on them, and I think,
take more fixins and I put those fix on the top.

Speaker 2 (05:31):
All Right, we got an episode out that I think
you'll love and enjoy with parton my take, and we
will kick that off right after this ad.

after it's been five minutes.

Speaker 2 (05:43):

Speaker 3 (05:45):
To be honest with you, I'm nervous to read this
ad in front of big cat.

Speaker 2 (05:50):

Speaker 2 (07:45):
Our was our first Super Bowl episode last year and
the audio was just weren't on.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
It was insane who was the guy who's the audio
guy that did that.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
We don't we don't want.

Speaker 3 (07:59):
You, but like that was a really bad fuck up. Dude.

Speaker 6 (08:03):
Look the jps here we had a sound guy Scottsdale
that I think he screwed up the audio of the
post Eagles chief super Bowl where Max was like super
super sad and it just disappeared. And I think was
it the handka to spend that's that's the luxury where

(08:24):
me and a big catterat where now like show is
over like that and there's a big, big fuck up.
We're just like, well, at least we don't have to
do ship.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
Yeah, And then you said you're like, all right, we're
never going to get a contractor in this remote location again,
Well we do.

Speaker 5 (08:38):
We do sound guys every time we do these trips,
and it's funny because they just become like part of
our show for an entire week. This week we have
a guy named Ian who was wearing he was wearing
a legit trained doctor hat.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
Yeah. I don't know what was going on.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
He wasn't just put it on just but.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
We got some yeah, weird guys.

Speaker 5 (08:54):
There was that guy in Houston who was like like
where do you live He's like, I live in the woods.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
Like, okay, it was like one hundred and two degrees.

Speaker 6 (09:04):
He was wearing black jeans, long sleeved black shirt every day,
same outfit, and he just went home to the woods.

Speaker 2 (09:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (09:11):
And there was that other guy who laughed at all
of our jokes, and we're like, we want to keep.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
This guy right.

Speaker 5 (09:16):
He would literally like laugh out loud, which you're I
don't think you're supposed to do his sound.

Speaker 1 (09:20):
Well, we're recorded, but it adds a nice elbow. Is
sick jokes anymore?

Speaker 2 (09:25):
Yeah, Because you listen to like two Bears or any
of those comedic podcasts and you hear the laughing in
the background, it's like, oh yeah, brings the show to
life a little.

Speaker 6 (09:33):
Have you ever tried to watch an episode of Friends
without the laugh track?

Speaker 1 (09:37):
On? No very depressive?

Speaker 2 (09:38):
Yeah, I did see.

Speaker 3 (09:39):
I did see a clip on Instagram the other day
of like it was a scene of Friends with Ross,
but they edited out all the characters so it was
like ross Es schizophrenia. It was hilarious. There was no laugh track.

Speaker 1 (09:48):
What with these mics that we were holding.

Speaker 5 (09:50):
We're just trying to see if we have like feats
of strength something because I'm it's wait.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
Dude, twenty five, you show up and would you show up?

Speaker 1 (09:58):
You can get traded for being fat? Now do you
guys know about Luca?

Yeah, we heard about Luca. We heard about the Luca trade.
I saw that.

Speaker 6 (10:06):
Yeah, I don't know, like JJ wasn't told ahead of time.
Do they respect JJ enough?

Speaker 2 (10:12):
Do they respect any of those guys enough? Didn't wouldn't
Jason Kidds just sitting at the podium. Yeah, I didn't
care about any of it.

Speaker 6 (10:18):
Yeah, I was sad he was just sitting there with
a thousand yards stare. Why was he even there? But
the GM made this crazy deal and then he just
had Jason Kidds sitting next to him, like, if you
have any questions for Jason, feel free, you know, chime in.
And Jason was like, you, dude, you you ruined my life.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
Or Jason might have just wanted to sit there and
be like, I have to sit on this so people
know I had nothing to do with it.

Speaker 6 (10:38):
Have you ever seen those those like press conferences that
people do if they get caught doing something like really
fucked up cheating on their wife, and they bring their
wife with them and have them sit there. Oh yeah,
that's what this was with Jason Kidd.

Speaker 5 (10:52):
Kobe had got the big ring. Yeah, you got it,
like the biggest ring ever for Vanessa.

Speaker 3 (10:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
Gregor's wife was next to him during the lawsuit. Yeah,
walking everywhere around.

Speaker 3 (11:02):
What a rider die for that?

Speaker 1 (11:03):
Yeah? Yeah is that Robbie Fox. That is tough. I
mean Tiger had to do.

Speaker 5 (11:08):
Yeah, Tiger had to do a press conference being like,
I love sex, what are you gonna do?

Speaker 1 (11:12):
I think his mom was at that one. I think so, Yeah,
his mom was. He's like, mom, you know me?

Speaker 2 (11:19):
Yeah, Well yeah, morning. Uh love having you guys on.

still yet to ever even be on.

Speaker 5 (11:36):
The Also, I was on the bus in Tennessee when
you guys tried to smoke us out.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
It's like a thousand degrees. Brandon literally got a migraine
from it.

Speaker 3 (11:43):
That was on the gravel right.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
Yeah, Yeah, that was those early days.

Speaker 6 (11:46):
Yeah, I am a little bit disappointed that I will
never be on the bus. I've always wanted to do
a podcast inside a moving vehicle. It's been my dream,
and unfortunately it's very fun. I'll never get there doesn't
even move.

Speaker 2 (11:58):
I hate to let you down. It's not it doesn't move.

Speaker 6 (12:00):

Speaker 2 (12:06):
Yeah, you guys got to watch out in a big way.

Speaker 5 (12:08):
Danny's gonna Vanny's getting refurbished Vann. He's gonna be able
to it. Was it was dead, so Vanny. We bought
Vanny was it seven years ago? First five hundred bucks. Uh,
did a bunch of stuff out of it, did interviews,
did Grit Week, and then I kept on paying the
car insurance and it was just like this is stupid.

(12:29):
We're never using it doesn't work anymore. So we told
Billy to scrap Vanny. We're like taking the scrap yard.
Here's the title, turn it in. He's like, got it,
got it, got it. He's like, all right, all done,
Title's done. You don't have to pay insurance anymore. And
then two years past and Billy hit us up and
was like, hey, what do you guys want me to
do with Vanny, Like, what do you.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
Mean you said you scrapped it? He's like, yeah, I didn't.
I just I just kept it.

Speaker 3 (12:51):
He just.

Speaker 6 (12:54):
He essentially, I mean he found a parking spot for
it that it sat there unbothered for a couple of years.
So as far as I'm turned, like, good job.

Speaker 2 (13:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (13:01):
It's basically like what when they do, like a movie
or a show does a lazy thing where they kill
off a main character and then their twin brother shows up.
That's what happened with Van. Actually it's not dead. So yeah,
we're gonna get Vanny back on the road.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
How long was Vanny? How long was Vanny alive before
he was dead?

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Like?

like he came up to us and was just like

(13:44):
just be safe, Like, okay, you pulled over. I think
none of the tail lights were on. I mean, yeah,

floor of Vannie, so when you're driving on the highway
you could just see I was like in the middle area.
We also, we were driving once back from Youngstown. All
four tires blew out at the exact same time, going

(14:06):
seventy miles.

Speaker 1 (14:07):

Literally, as soon as this whole split up between barcelonas happened,
Shirm's gonna come and be like, hey, I'm going to
if there was like was.

Speaker 2 (17:52):
The one too he was ready to give Jackie's like
I'm gonna give jack that Chevy Silverado. Yeah, you're just
kicking our guys off.

Speaker 5 (17:58):
One in my when you guys, uh completely screwed over
Jack and didn't give a Chevy Silverado, which justice for Jack?
That was bullshit, that's I was. There was a moment
there was like there was a twenty minute moment where
I was like, I might just buy Jack a Chevy Silverado.
Big dick these guys, and I was like, wait, that's
not that funny for like seventy thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (18:23):
But there was a moment where I was like.

Speaker 3 (18:25):
This would have been the ultimate. It would have been
the ultimate.

Speaker 5 (18:27):
F Then I was like, maybe I'll just random one,
and it's like that's not funny. So you know, they
deserve you deserve a Chevy silver I would get you on, Yeah,
I would if he still worked still worked.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
At I'm you have two trucks?

Speaker 3 (18:40):
Yeah? Yeah.

Speaker 6 (18:42):
I wish that there was like an account that, you know,
there was to follow NBA players and let you know,
like who they're following now online. I wish that there
was one that did that for podcasts or like sum
now follows and then everybody's like, what does this means?

Speaker 1 (18:55):
Not happening, that's happening.

Speaker 6 (18:58):
What was the account that Kuzma followed?

Speaker 1 (19:01):
What was her name?

Speaker 3 (19:03):
Damn?

Speaker 1 (19:04):
You know it was even better than that, So what
is what is this?

Speaker 3 (19:06):
This account that says who follows who? Because said you
know that the account, and I said yes, but I truly
actually have no idea.

Speaker 6 (19:11):
They just like follow NBA players and every time they've
got like a bot written for it, and every time
an NBA player follows somebody new, they put out a
post like this person just followed this person.

Speaker 2 (19:20):
Sometimes it happened to in the NFL with like if
a trade might happen, Like when a j was unfollowing

I'm not like uh you know, I'm not. I'm not
like with Washington the vyum with Nebraska.

Speaker 6 (20:19):
The difference is Washington they win some games.

Speaker 3 (20:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:42):
And number one transfer class in the Big ten.

Speaker 3 (20:44):
I know you saw that's not according to HU three.
We had this conversation on the plane.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
Yeah, but we don't have to get into it on threes,
like only compassing transfers who also left twenty four to
seven is just your transfer class that comes in there.

Speaker 3 (20:57):
So wouldn't the argument be all encompassing them.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
No, it's very simple. You go, what.

Speaker 6 (21:02):
Wisconsin give ranking.

Speaker 3 (21:04):
Wisconsin's like fifteenth deal. What are you guys dealing with

do you think we who would be on like the
all white team if we did like football fell?

Speaker 1 (22:22):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (22:22):
Do you think that they would beat the all black thing?

Speaker 1 (22:25):
I don't know. We'd have to do. We have enough time.
How long does this podcast go?

Speaker 3 (22:28):
As long as you want to be something a great
original idea?

Speaker 6 (22:31):
Who starts at at quarterback? We're going to Josh or Joe?

Speaker 2 (22:35):
I think, yeahsh either one.

Speaker 5 (22:37):
You let him battle it out for a couple We
got a problem though, with cornerbacks. We got Cooper Dejean.
I don't think we have problems Ethan Bonner, Ethan Bonner.
And then who's our edge Rusher's gonna be TJ?

Speaker 2 (22:49):
You got Max.

Speaker 3 (22:51):
Hutchinson.

Speaker 1 (22:52):
Okay, what about wide receivers?

Speaker 3 (22:54):
Lad, the confis definitely in there.

Speaker 6 (22:56):
We got We're just we're just.

Speaker 3 (23:04):
It's a good break.

Speaker 1 (23:07):
We're not running back running back is.

Speaker 6 (23:12):
I don't know. I'm going to leave that up to him.

Speaker 3 (23:13):
I think we definitely can claim him.

Speaker 1 (23:16):
Yeah you can.

Speaker 6 (23:16):
I don't feel comfortable claiming people really.

Speaker 1 (23:19):
Yeah, okay, I think yeah, what we do for running back?
I don't know. Yeah, but I don't know. I don't know.
You're retired, No, he's not retired. Yeah, here's a question.

Speaker 3 (23:34):
We were talking about this before the show. Do you
think who has a better career, Ashton Genty or scatter Bo.

Speaker 5 (23:39):
Probably Genty that I don't know, he's better.

Speaker 6 (23:44):
I mean, I I love watching Scatterbo. Feel like if
he goes, if he goes to Denver, Sean Payton is
going to be like Taysom Hill is back. Yeah, it's
younger and he's might maybe not quite as good a passer,
but this this kid is going to get the ball gives.

Speaker 3 (24:00):
You saw the giving aainst Texas.

Speaker 1 (24:02):
He had a great pass Ye.

Speaker 5 (24:05):
Yeah, Scatibo is good. I mean that all the there's
so many running backs in this draft.

Speaker 3 (24:09):
Yeah. The thing too, the thing that got me on
Scatabo because the Ashton Genty to me was like, obviously
you have the best career of all of them. But
then Scatabo and his pre his pregame press conference being
like I'm gonna bury Texas, I'm gonna go go to
work on them, basically giving all the Bolton bar material
in the world and then actually doing it. Yeah actually,
and then all of a sudden he started going crazy.

(24:30):
He's throwing up a little bit little boot and rally.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
Damn do you guys ever have uh, do you ever
feel real tension between the whole Jane Daniels.

Speaker 1 (24:40):
No, I can't.

Speaker 6 (24:41):
I don't really feel intention because I'm just too busy
being happy.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
There were are there any days that you come in
and you're kind of like, I'm not gonna say a
whole lot because I you know, the work speaks for its.

Speaker 1 (24:50):
No, because I don't.

Speaker 6 (24:51):
I don't think about how big Cat thinks about my
quarterback at all. I am. I love watching Jayde play
and there's nothing that can like, I'm not gonna come
and be like, man, maybe I shouldn't talk about Jaden
as much because Big Cat's sad. No, I fucking love
Jayden Daniels.

Speaker 1 (25:06):
He is the best.

Speaker 6 (25:06):
I've never had as much fun watching a quarterback as
I have with Jaydon Daniels. Now, Big Cat might be
upset that I that I'm so happy, No, but frankly
I didn't care.

Speaker 5 (25:15):
I was for a little bit and then I just
and Jane Daniels like I reached a point where I
was just like, he's fun to watch and I can't
really there's nothing you.

Speaker 1 (25:24):
Can do about it, you know what I mean?

Speaker 5 (25:25):
Like, like, I don't like when there's a lot of
people like, oh, first read guy or this or that,
it's like, oh, he's got a Cliff Kingsbury.

Speaker 1 (25:33):
It's like, dude, he's just good, you know.

Speaker 5 (25:35):
And hopefully Caleb Williams progressive because that's the other The
one thing I will say is the Internet and this
has nothing to do with Jadan Daniels, but the internet
has shit on Caleb to a point where it's like
if you if you pold people, you'd be like, he
had a terrible season. It's like, no, he didn't. He
had He had a pretty good season for a rookie.
Given the fact that his OC got fired, his next
OC became head coach. Three weeks later, his head coach

(25:57):
got fired.

Speaker 1 (25:58):
I don't know. I think he's gonna be all.

Speaker 3 (26:00):
I because everyone said he's gonna be the greatest thing
in the world.

Speaker 1 (26:05):
Yeah, there was a lot of hype. I mean that
was years.

Speaker 5 (26:06):
People basically said he's gonna be Jada Dane two years.
The two years thing always is tough. We just had
Andrew luck on and we were talking to him about it. Like,
when you're the number one, the consensus number one pick
for two years running, people get exhausted of you, and
they tear you down and they you know, Andrew Luck actually.

Speaker 1 (26:22):
Had a great answer. You're just like, no, I was
that good.

Speaker 5 (26:26):
He's like, yeah, I earned that, And I was like,
that's I want that answer, you know what I mean,
Just like, no, I didn't even think about it because
I knew I.

Speaker 1 (26:33):
Was that good.

Speaker 3 (26:34):
I wish he was still playing so bad. I know,
actually I'm happy he's not.

Speaker 1 (26:37):
I'll put it this way.

Speaker 6 (26:38):
If somehow it started to interrupt, if they put Caleb
back somehow into the draft for next year, knowing what
we already know about Caleb, and for whatever reason they
were like, no, Chicago Bears, you're not allowed to have
this guy anymore. He's going back into the draft. He
would go number one, Yeah, he would. He's better than
Shador and Cam.

Speaker 1 (26:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (26:54):
I guess it's like, yeah, you could say that.

Speaker 1 (26:56):
I think JJ McCarthy would probably go ahead of the
JAB wrong. Yeah, probably, he probably didn't.

Speaker 3 (27:02):
He was in a tough spot.

Speaker 1 (27:03):
Imagine we literally played this scenario and he didn't go. Yeah,
I actually think he's gonna be good. Jar.

Speaker 3 (27:13):
Think about JJ is like his season roller coaster, Like
he gets hurt. Everyone's real sad, Oh, the Minnesota's gonna
be really bad. Then Sam Donald goes off and they're
going to keep Sam. Jj, you probably get traded, and
then the playoffs happened and Sam ships the bed like.

Speaker 1 (27:26):
That were never going to keep saying. I mean they
were maybe gonna franchise.

Speaker 3 (27:29):
Legit conversations going on.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
They were never.

Speaker 6 (27:31):
I think if he if he had beaten the lines,
if he had won his opening round playoffs, if he
had like lit it up in the playoffs, I think
they would give him a contract.

Speaker 1 (27:38):
I think they would have franchised.

Speaker 6 (27:39):
How do you walk away from that?

Speaker 5 (27:43):
Yeah, you have a cheat code with JJ McCarthy on
a rookie deal, like you can make your team so
much better.

Speaker 3 (27:47):
But if you have that good of a record and
then you go to JJ Sam.

Speaker 5 (27:51):
You franchise tame do it again, because it's like the
Daniel Jones DANL. Jones had one good year and then
they're like, oh, this is gonna be this is the
year that he figured it out. No, he had a
you know, a year that was outside of what his
normal was.

Speaker 2 (28:03):
If you guys, if the Bears got the redraft from
this last class, do you still want Caleb over Jayden.

Speaker 5 (28:07):
No, you'd probably take Jane. I mean, I still believe
in Caleb, but I mean Jayden was incredible this year.

Speaker 3 (28:12):
Incredible.

Speaker 1 (28:13):
I mean, I'm curious I can't fight anymore.

Speaker 3 (28:16):
He was.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
He went to the NFC Championship ifty.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
Did you get a little nervous though that the last
time the Washington team had that rookie? That's not mean,
that's actually I mean it mean.

Speaker 6 (28:27):
It's mean because obviously I get very nervous about it
all the time. I live every yame. Every time he
gets tackled, I'm I say fuck every time somebody hits him.
And there he takes some hits where it seems like
his knee is gonna break, like he got hit by
the Falcons one time, just bent over his leg and
I was like, well, there goes my happiness.

Speaker 3 (28:48):
I got it.

Speaker 6 (28:48):
I got another like solid fifteen weeks end this season.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
Who's running this, by the way, sure sure we didn't
know who rg thie was?

Speaker 3 (28:59):
Mike Doggery.

Speaker 6 (29:00):
Yeah, talking about of course, I get very nervous all
the time with him all the time, because if you
get one bad hit, it can it can screw everything up.
But I think I think the way that he plays
is a little bit different from Robert. I think that
his rookie year already way better as a pocket passer.
So when he runs, yes, he takes big shots. That
makes me very scared.

Speaker 3 (29:20):
But even when he runs like he'll take big shots,
but there's other times where he can tell it's over
where Argie threw trying to try to dive, he just
kind of gets down. Yeah, he's smarter about it. Seems
like he's a little smarter about his mortality.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
So let me ask you.

Speaker 6 (29:32):
This will especially because as a linebacker you can't really
hit quarterbacks right. But Lamar Jackson does this and Jayden
does this too. Instead of sliding, sometimes they like dive
at the legs of the linebackers, like head first, shoulder first.
I feel like that's a very smart move because it's
like you're not going to absorb that hit where you're sliding,

(29:52):
your head's close to the ground, you get like one
little deflection and bounces off the turf. As a quarterback,
I feel like the dive at the defenders legs is
a better move.

Speaker 2 (30:01):
I honestly agree. And I guess my thought is is
like when did did quarterbacks fumble the ball all the
time before, Like, you know, if Lamar and Jane are
kind of normalizing diving forward, isn't that the whole risk
of like why guys don't dive in the first place.
And I have no basis on that other than I
don't remember quarterbacks fumbling a lot when they were diving,
except for outside of when you're playing mad and you

(30:23):
seem to always smumble when you dive.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
Yeah, every time.

Speaker 6 (30:25):
There was There was one play where RG three was
he was diving forward, I think it was his second year,
and he just dove forward and then just left the
ball on the ground back to the huddle and the
other team just picked it up like that, and RG
three was like, yeah, that's a sucky rule until he
like blamed the rule afterwards and then they changed it.

Speaker 1 (30:42):
That was the old Plasko, right. Was he the first
to do it?

Speaker 3 (30:45):
Did he just drop the ball?

Speaker 5 (30:48):
I want to say, went down and just just dropped
it because he's like, it's over by the way, it was.

Speaker 1 (30:56):
Mis Thick Overload was who Kyle Kuzma followed.

Speaker 7 (31:00):
And there's like Kyle Kuzma's now following mis Thick Overload,
and then everyone retweeted, and then he and the it
was like four hours later, like Kyle Kuzma has unfollowed
mis thick over.

Speaker 3 (31:11):
That's so tough, y.

Speaker 2 (31:13):
Know, how sick was it when you guys uh had
your appears on Hard Knocks, We're with You, with You
out of Camp Barstool?

Speaker 5 (31:21):
That was very you remember though, I'm I'm so paranoid
that like any media outside of like Barstool is gonna
just like rip us somehow, because we've been burned so
many times. So I was just like they're like, oh, yeah,
we want to put you in there, and I'm like, oh,
they're gonna be like here it goes. They're just it's
it's not like burned. It's just gonna be like they're
not gonna say, oh, pardon my take. They're gonna be

(31:41):
like in the controversial you know blog Barstool Sports, right
like the world outside of your Yeah, cause we've had
that a million times where it's like someone will come
and be like, oh, I want to do a piece
on you guys, and it's just all hip piece.

Speaker 2 (31:53):
I feel like it's kind of turned for you guys,
Like between that you guys being on the the Nickelodeon
when we were streaming.

Speaker 1 (32:00):
I was crazy.

Speaker 3 (32:01):
Ask you about that.

Speaker 1 (32:02):
They had no idea, So you're just watching the game
and all of a sudden we were like, what the
fuck it was.

Speaker 6 (32:07):
Adam Scheffer's soner Too, had introduced us. That would be
funny if she was like and problematic.

Speaker 1 (32:12):
Yeah, yeah, that was crazy. That was awesome.

Speaker 3 (32:17):
What if all the things you guys have been doing
this for so long? What is like the coolest thing?
You guys were like, holy shit, look.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
At that good question. Been doing this?

Speaker 5 (32:26):
I think probably anytime, like the like the Spotify thing
that happened last week where I don't know if you
guys saw they gave Spotify is doing like plaques now,
So they did Joe Rogan and like a try crime
podcast had like five hundred million downloads and then we
get a silver plat because we're like two hundred and fifteen.
It was like us and like three other crime podcasts.

(32:49):
Those moments are always like holy shit, like that's very
crazy and.

Speaker 3 (32:52):
That's big time.

Speaker 2 (32:53):
You guys have lived in that Spotify top three for
I mean as long as I can remember.

Speaker 1 (32:57):
Yeah, yeah, it's been We've been pretty fortunate.

Speaker 6 (32:59):
I was gonna say, maybe the cool thing is at
the at the start of the football season this year.
I think it was opening Sunday. I wake up in
the morning and I have a text on my phone.
It's sent to me in Big Cat from Chris Berman. Yeah,
just wishing us a happy start to the regulation. Yeah,
like enjoy this boys picks off today. And I'm like, wait, Chris,
like the guy I used to tune in and watch

(33:20):
every Sunday morning, is like reaching out and personally welcoming
me to the twenty twenty four NFL season.

Speaker 3 (33:26):
That is awesome.

Speaker 5 (33:27):
Yeah, it's like like Boomer Like even Jerry O'Connell, who
we interviewed, Jerry O'Connell. The first time we interviewed him,
we just said yes because we we had like kind
of a policy where it's like if the person, if
it's in person, we'll just say yes and see how
it goes. And like an interview like that, we're like,
he doesn't know sports, he's just gonna talk about acting.
And then he's become like a like institution in the

(33:49):
fabric of like our little world.

Speaker 1 (33:50):
Yeah, we type of things are so cool.

Speaker 6 (33:52):
We tried to cancel that interview, yeah, the very first one. Yeah,
because me and Big Cat love to cancel plans.

Speaker 1 (33:57):
It is. It's the most fun.

Speaker 6 (33:59):
And uh we finally got a booker that that would
slip the cancel plans hold and shout out Kelly. She
would like holdus accountable. And we told her like the
morning of yeah, I don't really want to do this
interview today, and she was like, you're doing this fucking interview. Yeah,
I booked it, like okay, yes, ma'am. And Jerry came
in and just blew us away. We're like, we love
this guy, yeah, and yeah he's Jerry's a good guy.

Speaker 1 (34:22):
You guys don't like canceling plans.

Speaker 5 (34:24):
Best feeling when you like forget plans when you have
like an interview where it's like, all right, I want
to do this interview, but it's not like a I
have to do this interview and it's like, oh, the
person can't do it.

Speaker 1 (34:34):
Another hour of just doing nothing. I could do anything
with this free hour.

Speaker 3 (34:40):
That one chair in the gambling cave.

Speaker 1 (34:42):
It's the same.

Speaker 5 (34:43):
It's the same thing of like trying to find a
movie on a Friday night with your wife being like
oh what are we getting there?

Speaker 1 (34:48):

We're doing this.

Speaker 1 (37:45):
I think in and out's over it.

Speaker 3 (37:47):
This is the first time.

Speaker 2 (37:51):
What we're just spitball.

Speaker 1 (37:53):
We're just talking.

Speaker 6 (37:54):
No, but you guys, have you have you had smashed
five guys?

Speaker 1 (37:57):
Are you guys?

Speaker 2 (37:57):
Now?

Speaker 6 (37:58):
I've never had smash Burger.

Speaker 3 (37:59):
No, there's a time.

Speaker 1 (38:00):
Very good.

Speaker 5 (38:00):
All right, So yeah, let's talk about burger. So I
didn't in it out? Have you guys done this? I'm
sorry if you guys don't. Yeah, Okay, In and out
I mean I get in some weird energy here. In
and out is the best burger. But the fries are.

Speaker 1 (38:16):
A little overright, I agree with all that.

Speaker 6 (38:18):
Okay, the fries at five guys are so good. And
they give you so much of them. Yes, they fill
up the bat.

Speaker 3 (38:24):
But the burger, we're talking about burger.

Speaker 1 (38:25):
We're just talking about We're talking about the burgers going out.

Speaker 3 (38:28):
Yeah, it has to be I really thought about.

Speaker 6 (38:32):
I think five guys is better burger. They get all
the toppings on there, the topics.

Speaker 3 (38:36):
That's what I remember the conversation a long time ago
about this. But if you give me too many options
for the burger, now that we have a problem because
I get too excited about the options.

Speaker 1 (38:44):
And then we just know what you want. I need to be.

Speaker 3 (38:46):
Told how to have my burger. What was the other
your little sub combinations? Yeah, and give me like four
or five combinations. I'll pick one you like.

Speaker 6 (38:52):
Choke me out, Ronald McDonald will tell me what I
want to tell me what I around on the lead?

Speaker 2 (38:57):
What was? Oh?

Speaker 5 (38:58):
Do you guys think that the NFL players would be
better at NBA or the NBA players.

Speaker 3 (39:06):
Prepared for this podcast than he did.

Speaker 2 (39:08):
He couldn't wait.

Speaker 1 (39:09):
We told me he couldn't find us all the debates,
I mean, sprinkle it.

Speaker 2 (39:13):
Just replay the hits.

Speaker 6 (39:14):
Yeah, offensive tackle, yeah, I think yeah, that seventy with
your your your heaviest.

Speaker 3 (39:22):
Three sixteen, three sixteen the episode heaviest ever was what
did that feel? So it was terrible? I was more
like A, I mean three, I'll wait to three twelve.
I got over three twelve.

Speaker 1 (39:31):
I was like, I gotta did you tell the story?

Speaker 5 (39:33):
It might have been someone else like saying like in
college you had to wake up in the middle of
the night to eat.

Speaker 3 (39:37):
Oh, yeah it was. That's brutal shots of olive oil.
But Peter take at the alfredo pasta chicken.

Speaker 1 (39:44):
Oh, Lebron would be a great tight end. That's true
in high school.

Speaker 3 (39:50):
Yeah, he did.

Speaker 2 (39:51):
When the football guys were at the game the other
night and he's like standing next to him, that is like.

Speaker 1 (39:55):
A I don't think though.

Speaker 5 (39:57):
Tell me this. If you put Wemby he's seven what
seven or something? Seven six wings, you put Wemby goal
line package, he just takes one step and he throw
it up to him. Who's defending that? But do you
like the ball?

Speaker 1 (40:13):
That's pass interference?

Speaker 3 (40:14):
No? Not if he's on a defensive lineman. You say
defense lineman, No.

Speaker 5 (40:18):
No, no, I'm taking he's tight end. He's out wide. He
put him out wide. He's a wide receiver. All right,
and he just takes a step and you just throw
the ball up. He's got his hands go up to
like ten feet that he can touch the rim, standing
on his standing on.

Speaker 3 (40:32):
Two time basketball players are brought up in football. I
think a Draymond Green in the spring game at Michigan State.

Speaker 1 (40:37):
What happened then?

Speaker 3 (40:38):
He didn't get bullied? He got bullied, He was out wide.
He got hemmed up by someone. Waste.

Speaker 1 (40:42):
You don't think NBA guys could play I do not.

Speaker 6 (40:44):
Think what about the white guys in the NBA. If
you were to make a team of all white NBA
players playing football, yeah.

Speaker 2 (40:52):
I don't think quality basket a quality football team.

I gotta be honest, I don't remember the heartfelt conversation

and he was like, hey, no more bad vibes, no more,
no more bullshit, Like I'm in, We're in the foxhole.
And I remember being like, I'm really happy you're saying
this because when Dave pulled all that production, it's like
we were in hell. Yeah, and then the first movie,
we have to do something is a good move.

Speaker 1 (46:58):
We had a lot of fun. If you're doing it again, I.

Speaker 5 (47:00):
Think this is the last one, right, allegedly. I mean,
I can't drink beer anymore, Like I drink ten beers.
I puked, So I'm in.

I mean, can we not do the three beer chug
to start? No, that's hard for me.

Speaker 3 (47:24):
Here's the thing, be qu Elson. Yeah, but I think
the three beer chug is so elite. I think it's
a it's a it's a great like, let's get going.

Speaker 1 (47:34):
Yeah, you're right, we're getting to spread. Here's my you have.

Speaker 6 (47:38):
You have offensive linemen out there, and they're able to
drink these beers.

Speaker 2 (47:42):
Would you be Quintin Elson?

Speaker 1 (47:45):
So many times you was just like, dude, I got it.

Speaker 3 (47:47):
The most infuriated I was. And that whole thing was
the end of the night when Will was pissing me
off beyond belief because I just want to finish the
game because it's dark. The whole goal going to Beer
Olympics was, Hey, we got to finish before dusk. That
is like pretty much the goal. And I'm already mad
at Will because he's yelling at the other people, and
then out of.

Speaker 1 (48:03):
Nowhere you come.

Speaker 3 (48:07):
And you start whistling everything that I'm thinking, Dude, I'm
about to beat this guy was working for it.

Speaker 2 (48:13):
I know he's helping us.

Speaker 3 (48:14):
Stop.

Speaker 5 (48:14):
You guys were doing a huddle and I whistled you
and gave you a technical and you're like, what's that for?
Is like I thought you guys were kids and Taylor.
Taylor looked at me and I was just like you
outright so mad? Yeah, Will thought it was on his side.

Speaker 3 (48:27):
It was he's helping us, Taylor, he's helping us.

Speaker 1 (48:30):
He's helping us.

Speaker 3 (48:31):
Like bro, he's not down.

Speaker 6 (48:33):
I want to do barstool Columbia, the Cocaine Olympics, the
Cigarette Olympics. Such a great idea would be incredible to
like trick shots, blowing rings with a big bong hit
of just cigarette smoke.

Speaker 5 (48:45):
Can you just make a rule though, next year if
I puke, I can keep playing because like that's the
thing is like I'll puke, but it's just to get
more room, like I can keep drinking after.

Speaker 2 (48:53):
It, like your stomach's I want to say something like
you know, Ike, and then I just I wanted to
keep drinking, and they're like, you can't get back in
the game. Puke was supposed to be okay, back to
two years ago. I want to say Hardy's wife puked
and people were up in arms about people puke and
they're like that shouldn't be allowed. One.

Speaker 5 (49:12):
I mean at that point when I puked this time,
it was like twelve beers in an hour and a half.

Speaker 1 (49:16):
It's like, I need some more room.

Speaker 2 (49:17):
You know who I feel like it has to play?
You know how I feel like he has to play?

Speaker 3 (49:19):
Who has to play? Max?

Speaker 1 (49:21):
Yeah, he's our shirt. It's your sure, Yeah, that's our shirt.

Speaker 3 (49:26):
If Sham defected to barstool in a month, what would
you do with shir Would you replace anything?

Speaker 1 (49:32):
Whatever?

Speaker 3 (49:32):
Replace on every every show, every single show.

Speaker 6 (49:37):
Was so sick to him, Cut him loose, yeah whatever
you Yeah, you have our support.

Speaker 3 (49:43):
You can't have him do that.

Speaker 1 (49:43):
Whatever you need.

Speaker 3 (49:45):
It's a bad idea. I've seen this guy.

Speaker 1 (49:47):
No, he's sure free reign, you get anything he wants.

Speaker 3 (49:52):
Dank Sure, that sounds kind of nice.

Speaker 1 (49:54):
I'd probably leave to pretty good idea.

Speaker 3 (49:56):
That idea. You'd come back to us in a month,
be like they gave me way.

Speaker 1 (49:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (49:59):
One thing about good managers, you hire talented people and
you let them do their thing and you trust them.

Speaker 1 (50:03):
That's what we would do. We don't put them in.

Speaker 3 (50:05):
A have to.

Speaker 1 (50:07):
You can't can't open.

Speaker 3 (50:10):
The box a little bit, you can't put it all
the way.

Speaker 1 (50:11):
No, I want them flying everywhere. Let them right.

Speaker 5 (50:15):
Yeah, just write down the number and slide me number
and I'll let you know if we can do it.
The Olympics, Yeah, I think, are you in because I
because I heard it was the last one. I have
to be there for the last men. I mean I
wanted to be the last one because I want to
go and just be like, let's one rule.

Speaker 3 (50:35):
Do this one rule. And this is me just looking
at no Vegas. No no Vegas for sure, but keep
it up in mind. We can't let it will be
doing part of my take after the Olympics.

Speaker 1 (50:45):
Listen. Incredible for all of us because there was we.

Speaker 3 (50:49):
Were upstairs and you're like, hey, will come and show
you I do it even in my junks. Your brothers
were I'm doing this.

Speaker 1 (50:56):
That was a very regrettable episode of brothers don't do
it often.

Speaker 3 (51:01):
That was very well.

Speaker 6 (51:05):
Have you heard from JJ Reddick since that podcast?

Speaker 2 (51:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (51:08):
What he said on the mat he did, we didn't
cut it. It actually might have been yes, And I
had to tell him. I was like, you actually know,
I'm sorry, we'll call No, you haven't talked to me.
I was like, I'm sorry, we'll called you. We're cutting this,
and then in his head he's like, well I know
these guys, they don't cut anything. It's like no, no,
I like, I'm actually sorry. And so we had like

(51:30):
a back and forth. It was just like will what
are you doing? Why are you know?

Speaker 1 (51:40):
Podcast?

Speaker 2 (51:41):
Whatever he needs he knows I got him sure.

Speaker 1 (51:43):
Let me see the number. We'll get a number.

Speaker 6 (51:45):
We'll get mad at us for just we were talking
about the Lakers. He's like selling you guys, don't look
JJ ready to fight us. It's a fox old guy.

Speaker 1 (51:54):
Let's see what.

Speaker 6 (51:57):
Because he does organic, because he's talented, that's it. That's
it doesn't matter.

Speaker 1 (52:04):
That's no problem.

Speaker 3 (52:06):
It doesn't matter.

Speaker 5 (52:06):
Approve no, no, no, no, double it. That's betweens. I thought
it would be double. I was expecting double. That bad
negotiating on his app. This is we got sure them.

Speaker 1 (52:16):
On a cheap deal.

Speaker 3 (52:17):
It's locked.

Speaker 1 (52:20):
If he wants to that number is to move.

Speaker 3 (52:23):
Damn. You don't want get lost it like that Younglis Chicago.

Speaker 1 (52:27):
You gonna hit on your on every single day.

Speaker 5 (52:31):
A lot of stuff, dude. He asked for fifty K.
You guys pay him thirty? How many him thirty?

Speaker 3 (52:40):
How many?

Speaker 1 (52:41):
Is gonna have a great article about this, It's gonna.

Speaker 2 (52:44):
Be how many different guys have you had work on
part of my take, like behind the scenes or producer
or whatever.

Speaker 6 (52:48):
It is really not that many when you when you
think about all the years interns counting to Yeah, Darren
Ravel No, Dana was an intern, uh Ken jack mm hmm.

Speaker 1 (53:01):
Hank. So the first like two years, Hank had to
do everything, which was crazy. So it was like the
beginning of part of my take.

Speaker 5 (53:07):
We we got very big, and we all moved to
New York and it was like kind of a everyone
was trying to find their spot in barstool and we
kept on being like, I think this is working.

Speaker 1 (53:18):
I think this is pretty big.

Speaker 5 (53:19):
We need some more help, And we didn't get more
help for a while, and then finally we got Liam
Bubba and then Max and then now we have Memes, Pug,
Shane Jackson, I think seven of us now, so it's
pretty like grew.

Speaker 1 (53:39):
Yeah, it's not like all the jps you guys got.

Speaker 2 (53:42):
How How fast did you guys start blowing up for
when was your very first episode was that in the
in the van.

Speaker 6 (53:50):
No, it was in my in my living room in Austin.

Speaker 1 (53:53):
I would say it was probably like two much.

Speaker 5 (53:57):
It was actually the very biggest for the moment was
we had a guy named Kyle wilcher On who played
a Kentucky then transferred to Gonzaga, and Gonzaga I think
was maybe the two seed that year in the tournament
good basketball player. He came on and he told us
that Adam Morrison had a apocalypse bunker, and that got
picked up by everyone and it kind of like blew

(54:19):
us up. And then Adam Morrison was like, no, I
don't like people think I'm crazy. And then we had
Adam Morrison on. He became a friend, which was pretty cool.
So that was like the first big pop. And then
it was Joe Buck and SVP. Later that summer Blake
Griffin Yeah we love our Blakes. Yeah, Mortals like so
it was probably like six months that it was like,

(54:40):
oh shit. And then there was also this weird thing where, uh,
the old the way they used to do the old podcast.
It was like was it through iHeart yeah something it
was it was somewhere podcast won. It was something where
the numbers were not real, like they were just inflated.

Speaker 1 (54:56):
So I remember I think our Jim Harbaught episode, they.

Speaker 5 (54:59):
Were like like four million people listened to it like
that's not possible.

Speaker 1 (55:05):
There's just no way that happened.

Speaker 5 (55:07):
And then they like adjusted it and it was like actually
it was like you know, seven hundred thousands, Like okay,
that's a realistic number.

Speaker 1 (55:13):
That's so pretty good. Yeah, yeah, I remember.

Speaker 2 (55:14):
Was it just audio?

Speaker 5 (55:16):
H Yeah, it was. We don't we didn't do YouTube
for because we only had Hank.

Speaker 6 (55:21):
No, we had we had a video for Harball, right, yeah,
for some of the for some of the special ones.

Speaker 5 (55:25):
Yeah, a trip, and we do like clips and stuff,
but yeah, Hank, because it was just Hank, we didn't
do YouTube.

Speaker 6 (55:30):
The only video clips that we'd ever have would be
like occasionally somebody was a kinjack that would make the
videos that went along with it. Yeah, So it was
like not even stick figure animation. It was just like
here's a picture of Big Cat as he's talking, his
picture of me. Here's a picture of whatever it is
that we're talking about, like Chris Jones with his stick
popping out, and we make a video that way. But yeah,
it was not like a video podcast at all at

(55:51):
the start. I remember when when I first moved to
New York, because I moved there from Austin, Texas, and
like Barstool is now, it's massive in Austin, it wasn't
that big from what I saw at the time back
in like twenty fifteen, twenty sixteen. But when I moved
to New York, I went out for wings at this
place called Woji's, which is my favorite wing place in

(56:11):
New York. And I go there like the first week
I'm in town, and the server comes up to me
and he's wearing a shirt that says gas and beers
and chuck and nuts, and that's what Ryan Whitney had
told us on the pod like three weeks ago. Were like,
that's a great saying, let's make T shirts out of it.
I was like, holy fuck, this guy has like our
obscure T shirt. He's like the first waiter that I

(56:32):
see in New York. And little did I know that
that was going to be, like, you know, a very
common thing. But when I saw it, I was like,
this is kind of crazy.

Speaker 1 (56:39):
This guy.

Speaker 6 (56:40):
This guy knows about the spit in Situate, Massachusetts.

Speaker 1 (56:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (56:43):
Yeah, So that was, Yeah, those little moments where it's like,
oh shit, starting to get recognized.

Speaker 2 (56:48):
Now when you guys are blowing up kind of like grassroots.
Like was it like social media like Twitter and stuff
where you guys are getting everything out there? Is it
like redded Are these back channels?

Speaker 5 (56:59):
No, it was mostly just social media and like word
of mouth. And I think we were just we were
very lucky that we came around in a time twenty
sixteen where there weren't a ton of podcasts and we
were very unique in the fact that we were two
dudes just having fun with sports and do it. Like
Another one that was I feel like is like a
seminal moment is I don't know if you guys, you

(57:19):
guys probably don't know anything about to say. But this
guy named foul Ball Guy catches basically a million foul balls.

Speaker 1 (57:26):
Like he's the best to ever do it, literally to
ever do it.

Speaker 6 (57:30):
He does clinics on how to catch it.

Speaker 1 (57:32):
He's the best. He'll go to a game and he'll
get like five foul balls.

Speaker 3 (57:36):
Mentally, he just finds the right seat.

Speaker 1 (57:37):
He knows where he's sitting.

Speaker 5 (57:38):
He became home run Guy because he started catching home
runs too Zach Campbell. So there was a over the summer,
there was a baseball game in an Army base MLB game,
and it was tickets were only for like veterans and
active service members, and he somehow got in. And then

(57:59):
it became this huge, huge controversy where the other guy
we had in our back pocket, Marlins Man, who would
just go to games and just be seen sitting in
the front row. He'd go to like a World Series
game and he would just be sitting in the front
row with his Marlin shirt on.

Speaker 4 (58:12):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (58:12):
So they had a beef and then we had them
both on to squash the beef. And it's really stupid
saying it out loud, but like, those are the moments
that I think helped those growths. People are like, what
is this show? Like, what the They were really.

Speaker 1 (58:25):
Mad at each other. They were so many Marlin, what
was the beast? Marlin's man.

Speaker 5 (58:29):
So, Marlin's man, he never makes it about himself. He
just likes to go to games, sit front row beyond
TV believers.

Speaker 1 (58:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (58:36):
So, and he was mad because the game at the
base would have been prime Marlin's Man sitting on TV.
But he was like, I'm respecting the troops. I'm not
going to try to get a ticket. A foul ball
guy did get atriot. So he was just like this bullshit,
I should have been there again, not making about himself,
just sitting on.

Speaker 3 (58:53):
So he was met that guy was there and he
wasn't there.

Speaker 6 (58:56):
I think that he stood for integrity. He was just
upset that foul ball guy was there.

Speaker 3 (59:02):
So when it was all said and done, where do
you guys stand on a foul ball guy?

Speaker 1 (59:05):
In Marlon Mann?

Speaker 5 (59:06):
I love the foul ball Guy is a controversial figure,
but I think it's one of those things you gotta respect.

Speaker 1 (59:10):
Great.

Speaker 5 (59:11):
Yeah, Like he's the best. He's the best to do it.
He's the best it's ever been. People get mad at
the best. That's just the crossy bears.

Speaker 3 (59:19):
Now, if you're taking Marlon Man and foul ball guy,
you put him in a dark room.

Speaker 1 (59:22):
Who's coming out Marlins Man? I think guys got it.

Speaker 6 (59:26):
He's like a little just if Marlin's Man brings his cats.

Speaker 1 (59:29):
Yeah, I'm going he's got cats.

Speaker 6 (59:31):
Oh he's got eight giant cats.

Speaker 1 (59:33):
Yeah, coon cat.

Speaker 6 (59:33):
I'm talking about Like these cats weigh twenty five thirty
pounds each.

Speaker 5 (59:37):
And Marlins is a survivor. Yes, marlins Man almost died
in a plane crash. Marlin's man almost got aboarded.

Speaker 3 (59:44):
Like at birth.

Speaker 5 (59:44):
Yeah, he told us all this. Yeah yeah, so he's
a survivor. He's a survivor. But yeah, twenty sixteen to sell.

Speaker 1 (59:52):
Merch with the barstool logo on it, that was him.

Speaker 3 (59:56):
Yeah yeah, yeah, it's huge and that really turned the
company around.

Speaker 6 (01:00:00):
Yeah, a lot of this company this is this is
the barstool signed. Yeah, he gave me like that. I mean, no,
you can't do it.

Speaker 3 (01:00:08):
It's only well I'm still here right the money.

Speaker 6 (01:00:12):
Yeah, you're going stool down, stool it's always this is
stool down.

Speaker 3 (01:00:18):
This right now.

Speaker 6 (01:00:19):
Yeah, and also be Olympics.

Speaker 1 (01:00:20):
Look at this bang crowd.

Speaker 5 (01:00:24):
He just tracks the balls better than anyone. And people
claim he steals it from kids. He never steals it
from kids. He wears like he does all the tricks.
He'll go he'll go to like batting practice and he'll
have both jerseys, so he'll switch the jerseys and be like, oh,
can you give me, you know, like Mike Trout and
his Angels jersey, Like Mike Trout, can I get one?
And then he'll switch it and be like a Yankees jersey.

Speaker 1 (01:00:45):
He's like Aaron Judge. Can I have one look at him?
This respect? Great? Wait? Is that a kid that he's mossing? Yeah,
but he never took it from kids. Gotta kids got
to hit the weight room, kids got to learn what
are you gonna do? Look at this right over the kids?
You know, the kids gared of it? Bang here a kid?

Speaker 2 (01:01:05):
So what are you guys doing before? Pardon my take?
I like, how did you guys come across each other?
Because weren't you you were? Were you right for Pro
Football Talk?

Speaker 3 (01:01:14):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:01:14):
No, I was.

Speaker 6 (01:01:15):
I was writing for Kissing Susie Colber and s B
Nation and they were just sports blogs.

Speaker 1 (01:01:22):
Okay, so yeah, I was.

Speaker 6 (01:01:23):
I was blogging for them. I talked about a little
bit with with Rousillo. But I was a used dog
salesman in Austin and then I upgraded to selling software
and then I just hated my job, and.

Speaker 1 (01:01:34):
So I started this Twitter account like as a.

Speaker 6 (01:01:36):
Diverse to do something creative, make myself laugh. And then
eventually I was like, I hate this job. It crushes
me every day. I just want to try to write.
And so then I was blogging at the time, so
like full time, probably like seven eight blogs a week,
which forgot like big cat, that's that's rookie numbers because.

Speaker 1 (01:01:54):
We had a lot. Yeah, I was just blogging.

Speaker 2 (01:01:57):
So you were blogging for barstoo for PFT was yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:02:00):
So I was at Barcel from twenty twelve and we
had to do like it was a blog.

Speaker 1 (01:02:05):
It was a blog every.

Speaker 5 (01:02:07):
Forty minutes starting at nine am until five and then
after our blog. So I'd write like ten blogs a
day and then we I followed PFT, he followed me.
I was like, this guy's hilarious.

Speaker 2 (01:02:19):
You just came across him on the internet.

Speaker 5 (01:02:20):
Well, we started getting people started saying that we were
like copying each other. They'd be like, oh, that's a
joke he would have made. That's joke he would have made.
And then he was in Chicago for a wedding and
I was like, let's grab a beer and uh we
we hit it off hanging out, and then we were
at a point at Barcel where it was like there
was like eight of us and it was still we

(01:02:41):
were so small. So I just told like, I remember
we had the beer, and I was just like, if
we ever get to a point where like we're hiring, like, you're.

Speaker 1 (01:02:48):
The first person I would want us to hire.

Speaker 5 (01:02:51):
And then when we got bought by Churnin and did
the whole move to New York, I told David.

Speaker 1 (01:02:56):
I was like, we gotta hire this guy.

Speaker 2 (01:02:58):
Is Turnin era or is this where big vision? They're like, Hey,
we're gonna start getting in the podcast world.

Speaker 5 (01:03:02):
They yeah, podcasting, So KFC radio. Kevin started like podcasting
at Barstool, which he should get a ton of credit
for because at the time Dave was like, this is
a dumb idea. So I did KFC Radio with Feidelberg
and Kevin for a few years. So yeah, Kevin, Kevin
had the vision to do it early on. And then yeah,

(01:03:23):
when when we got bought and we all moved to
New York, I was like, we got to hire a
PFT hired him, hired Caleb, hired a few different people,
and then we started like the minute I think it
was like maybe one month into him getting hired, we
started part of my take and then the rest is
kind of history.

Speaker 2 (01:03:39):
Now on KFC Radio, are you guys, is that like
sports centric or are they No, it was more lifestyle
and then you were like, hey.

Speaker 5 (01:03:44):
It was more Yeah, it was more like we would
do dumb hypothetical shoot the ship and then yeah, so
then and then we started Barstool. When we got bought
and all moved to New York, we started adding podcasts
and yeah, it became kind of the I don't want
to say we're a podcast company, but obviously that's a
big part of it.

Speaker 6 (01:04:05):
So I went back because I haven't looked at these
probably since they were sent. But the first DMS between
myself and Big Cat twenty fourteen, April seventeenth, I guess
the site that I was working for, it looks like
they got bought by another site. So Big Cat thought
I was moving to New York and I was like, no,
I'm in Austin. And then he says, do you write

(01:04:27):
chess as freelance? Do you have a regular job outside
of writing? I was trying to hire them right away.
I say, I'm freelance. I used to have an outside job,
trying to make this my career. Big Cat says, that's awesome.
Start your own site or find a full time gig somewhere.
I said, I've got an ebook coming out in a
couple of weeks. If that does well, there are publishers
who are interested, but right now just scraping by. That
was goodel Vers Obama the battle for the future of

(01:04:47):
the NFL.

Speaker 1 (01:04:50):
Are you a Southern guy? Originally?

Speaker 6 (01:04:52):
Barstool South has always been a priority. Wouldn't have to
hire AFT?

Speaker 1 (01:04:57):
And then I was.

Speaker 6 (01:05:00):
And he says, well, if you're ever interested in barsols,
shoot me an email. Gives me the email. We're always
looking for writers. Have goals on opening a Southern site.
And he says, and even if not, email me. I
have a guy who would be funny if you try
to start your own website. And then Big Cat sent
me a picture of him meeting Adam Schefter.

Speaker 1 (01:05:21):
Oh what was that?

Speaker 6 (01:05:24):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (01:05:24):
I think that was outside of the Super Bowl. I
like tracked him down and maybe I don't even know
where it was.

Speaker 6 (01:05:30):
Yeah, yeah, awesome. Let's meet at the Theory Bar on
stateon Hubbard. It's a block from your hotel one thirty.
I say, sounds good. I'll be the white guy drinking
a beer found me showing and that was it.

Speaker 1 (01:05:44):
Yeah, that was it. That was it.

Speaker 5 (01:05:45):
And then the first time that he came and hung
out with us was twenty fifteen, is actually my thirtieth birthday.
His the day after and we went out and I
introduced him to Dave and I was like, Dave is
PFT super talented, Like you know, like how you miss
I was like to Dave, I was like, you know
how you misspell stuff and like fucked things up like
PFD does that, but he's doing it on purpose.

Speaker 6 (01:06:07):
As Wow, yeah, I think that's San Francisco way back
in the day.

Speaker 1 (01:06:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:06:11):
So yeah, and then yeah, and then and then Dave
was like, yeah, let's do it. And then we hired
a bunch of people and it was kind of a
rocket ship and then we hired.

Speaker 3 (01:06:18):
You guys, when you guys, when you get hired there
and you say one month, how how long did it
take you guys? It took you guys one month, but
like how quickly were you like we got to do
a podcast?

Speaker 1 (01:06:26):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (01:06:26):
No?

Speaker 5 (01:06:26):
I when we hired when when I told Dave we
got to hire a PFD, I was like, we're.

Speaker 3 (01:06:30):
Doing doing a podcast?

Speaker 1 (01:06:31):
Yeah, we're nice.

Speaker 5 (01:06:32):
And the and actually an interesting part of this whole
story is Hank was like very close to putting barstool
at the time because so he went so Hank didn't.
He went to college for a year and then started
at Barsol when he's nineteen. I've known Hanks, he's nineteen
years old. He uh we did this thing called the
Dixie Tour where he Caleb uh bus boy Benny and

(01:06:56):
they went down to the South. They went like campus
to campus, big football games whatever. So Hank like spent
three months, four months just getting fucked up being on
the road, being like this is what real college looks like.
And after the Dixie Tour he kind of like sat
me down. He's like, I'm thinking about maybe like going
back to college or doing something like kind of having
almost like a little mini life crisis. And I was like, dude,

(01:07:19):
just stick with me for like another year. We're about
to get bought by Churnin. We're about to hire this
guy PFT. I want you to produce the podcast. And
that was the best decision he ever made. But yeah,
he was very close. He was like we had a
heart to heart where he was like, I'm thinking about
leaving barstool and like doing something else. I don't know
if I could do this, And yeah, so that was

(01:07:41):
a good safe What was he thinking, like film school?

Speaker 3 (01:07:42):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:07:43):
I think he was thinking film school and he just
kind of was like not lost, but just a little.
It also was tough because he was in that Milton
office and that wasn't they say Milton tough for a reason.

Speaker 1 (01:07:53):
It was like you're thrown into the ringer where it's
just like, you know, it's a pressure cooker.

Speaker 2 (01:07:58):
Is the Milton office that it was a dentist office
that Gus posted something last week. I want to say
it was maybe when Smokes was talking about work hours. Yeah,
but there was like a clip from like way back
in the day whitting the guy was like he was
late a couple of days in at the door, fights
walks in the door and I thought it was so funny. Yeah,

(01:08:19):
but that's the Milton office. That's the Milton office. So yeah,
that was like Gas, Dave, hank Lewis, and there was
other people like you know, Coley was there for a
little bit weird haircut, Seth was there, Pirate Simon. So yeah,
it was kind of like a whole mishmash and that
was that was the first barstool office that wasn't Dave's

(01:08:40):
just apartment. And before before part my take, what was
the biggest thing going with barstools then?

Speaker 3 (01:08:46):
Was it just a blog?

Speaker 5 (01:08:47):
It was blog it was run down, run down, run
so rundown meet Kevin and Dave. Yeah, I guess that
ass was pretty big. That ass was pretty big. We
should bring that back we shut But yeah, it was
the rundown was like the big thing that was in
KFC radio.

Speaker 1 (01:09:04):
But that those are the big things.

Speaker 5 (01:09:05):
That were kind of like our first foray into video
and audio and all that stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:09:10):
Was it awkward when part of my take transcended as
fast as as you guys did, like more from I
guess your position. Yeah, coming into a new gig and
probably learning about it on the fly.

Speaker 6 (01:09:20):
I'm still learning about like the past relationships that I
had no idea about. Like occasionally Hank Will mentioned something
was like oh I didn't know that about pirates sound.

Speaker 3 (01:09:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:09:31):
Yeah, it was awkward. I'll say it. It was awkward.

Speaker 3 (01:09:33):
It was.

Speaker 5 (01:09:35):
It was awkward in the fact that when we got
to New York, everyone was kind of looking for their thing,
and we had our thing very quickly. So it was
like it was before Dave's like pizza reviews like blew up,
you know what I mean. So it was it was
just this weird time where I think everyone was really
hungry and and and like wanting to work really hard

(01:09:55):
and try to find something that worked, and we just
were lucky enough to find the thing that worked before
everyone else. So I think there was a little tension there.
But then as time went like everyone kind of found
their lane and it dissipated, so like naturally dissipated. But
I mean you can understand, like if everyone's going to
one place, everyone's moving their family and doing everything, and

(01:10:17):
one a couple guys are like hit the ground running
and just have this like shooting star success, it's gonna
cause a little tension.

Speaker 3 (01:10:24):
Yeah, But I mean.

Speaker 5 (01:10:27):
The crazy thing about Barstool, I think it's like attestament
to it is like Dave is still doing it. I'm
still here, Kevin's still here, like Fidelberg, Hank, like Gaz,
all these guys that were original guys.

Speaker 1 (01:10:39):
There's a loyalty to Barstool that I.

Speaker 5 (01:10:41):
Don't think you find it many other companies, and I
think it's pretty special.

Speaker 1 (01:10:46):
Yeah, not to bring up the L word for you guys.

Speaker 5 (01:10:48):
Sorry, I told you guys, though I had a hard
tart with both of you. I told you guys straight
up when you when you were talking about leaving, like
I can't I can't sit here and be like, man,
how could you guys do this? Because I came into
barstool and PFT as well, Because PFT even though I

(01:11:08):
was at Barcel for four years before and PFT is
still like play ten.

Speaker 6 (01:11:12):
I think maybe we had shirts. Yeah I was like twelve,
maybe yeah, right, So PFT even though it's like I
still don't consider myself like I'm not an OG. Right,
so much stuff happened, but.

Speaker 5 (01:11:23):
He's as close to an og as you get because
it's been you know, I was at Parcel four years
for PFT game, but PFT has been at Parcel for
nine years, you know what I mean. So but I
told you guys, like you can't compare it because I
this is my life's work. This is like my family,
This is my you know, all these people that I've
been working with and like they don't depend on me,

(01:11:45):
but like part of part of it all working is
is me staying here and Dave's staying here in PFT
staying here. We're in a different circumstance than you guys,
you know what I mean. Like if I were hired
at Barcel in twenty twenty and had this success, I
probably would have left too, you know what I mean,
I probably would have got and offered something and been like,
I don't have the same years of of everything built up.

(01:12:05):
So but I I mean, I'll never I mean I'll
never have another boss. Besides Dave, my agent, hates when
I say that, but I say it, and I don't
give a fuck because it's just like.

Speaker 2 (01:12:14):
Do you ever Obviously this is an awkward question. I'm
putting you in a tough spot, but do you guys
ever think like, hey, pardon my take, was its own thing?
Not in a way of like you wish it did happen,
But I'm sure there there had to have been times
along the way, especially because when the ESPN thing pretty
sensitive when it started, and you guys were bummed, but
ultimately it's like you're going with the brain, You're going
with the team.

Speaker 6 (01:12:32):
And we were also like super naive at the time,
so we we thought this was gonna be cool. Hey,
we're gonna be on TV. That's awesome TV. At the time,
like it was still the big thing, right, and we
had a couple of people tell us, like Dave was
was insistent that they were trying to hire us. Yeah,
I me and Big Kel were like, I don't think so.
I think they just want to I just want to
do a show with us, which is cool. They were

(01:12:53):
definitely and you're thinking there were a million percent Like
John Skipper brought us into his office and sat us down.
It was like feeling this out, figure out, like am
I gonna make these guys an offer or what like
it was. It was done like kind of behind the back,
and we were like, why is everything so secret?

Speaker 1 (01:13:09):
We were so dumb.

Speaker 5 (01:13:10):
We were like, we're so behind Dave's back kind of
well yeah, I mean he asked us personally to go
there and it wasn't like a meeting set up through
Eric or Dave, and we were just like, oh okay,
like we the all the other meetings were done like Erica,
and this was done outside of that. And I think
back to it and it's like we were so naive,

(01:13:30):
we were so stupid. We we I learned so much
from that experience, the biggest one being like if a
deal takes eight months nine months to actually happen, they
you probably shouldn't do the deal, because it was like
that was that was how long it took to get
from like ESPN being like, oh we want to do
a TV show to like getting through all the hoops
and clearing everything. It's like, if you have to clear everything,

(01:13:53):
you probably aren't going to have our back when the
ship hits the fan. And it turned out to be
very true, but yeah, we were. We were like, no,
ESPN doesn't want to hire us, that's crazy. We're just
gonna do this show and it's gonna be awesome and
it's gonna make Barstool bigger.

Speaker 1 (01:14:04):
Right, way wrong, very wrong about that.

Speaker 5 (01:14:07):
And then and they didn't have our back at all,
And that was the biggest lesson is like Barstool has
our back, Our fans have our back. We don't need ESPN,
we don't need a TV show, we don't need all
this stuff. Our fans are here, They're gonna stick with
us no matter what. So why like I actually when
we and I know it sounds cliche and I think
both PF and I have said this many times, but
like going through the Barstool Van Talk thing was the

(01:14:28):
best thing for us because once it the dust settled,
we realized, like we have the number one sports podcast.
We don't need anything else. We have our fans right here.
We don't need to go anywhere else. We have it
to them, We give it to them. We don't have
anyone telling us what to do. Why would we ever
mess that up? So every offer since then has been no, thanks.

Speaker 3 (01:14:47):
Yeah. If that never happens, you guys might be sitting
here today being like what if Yeah, what if ESPN
does come or right or whatever?

Speaker 5 (01:14:54):
And we've had times like I mean, pft's contract's been up.
I've never become a free agent because I I just haven't.
But like there's and we're very open with each other
about it, Like he's when his contract's been up. He's
just like, I'm gonna at least take some calls like
I have to. And it's like, yeah, you have.

Speaker 6 (01:15:10):
To take You take the meetings, and then they throw
big numbers in front of you.

Speaker 1 (01:15:14):
At least that is how I felt.

Speaker 2 (01:15:15):
Like.

Speaker 6 (01:15:16):
You think about the number, You're like, that's a cool
number to hear, like that's amazing, and then I think about, Okay, well,
i'd also be leaving part of my take if that
were to happen. The show means a lot to me.
We started it, we've seen it grow, we put so
much effort into it. I love these guys. I love
our fans, I don't like I feel a sense of
responsibility to them too, where it's like I had bands

(01:15:36):
and shows that I love growing up and if they
split up, like it really like affected you a little
bit committed to it. There's a lot of people out
there that feel that way, and like that was a
big part of saying like, no, I don't necessarily need
to chase this huge number Parsceol. By the way, it's
not like Barstol wasn't paying fair like they they made
good offers, but they were you know, other companies were

(01:15:57):
trying to throw big, big dollars and I was just like,
you know what. Number one, I don't feel like breaking
up this podcast. I don't feel like ending it. We're
not done here. And number two, it would come with
a lot more responsibility. And part of making this decision
for me was you have to know what you like
to do, and I like doing the show. I like

(01:16:18):
the creative aspect, I like everything that goes with that.
I don't think I'm good at starting my own company,
you know, I don't think I'm good at hiring people
and and like, you know, keeping tabs on the administrative
side of all that. That to me doesn't sound like fun,
and I think that the show that I would create
would suffer because I'm not, you know, just totally locked
in on the creative aspect. And so it was a

(01:16:40):
combination of all those things. And also like there's no
better job in the world in my opinion than than
doing part of my taking. So yeah, it became The
first time was like kind of hard to say no.
The second time I was like.

Speaker 1 (01:16:52):
I don't.

Speaker 6 (01:16:52):
I don't even stake the meetings, like we're going to
figure something out. It'll happen.

Speaker 5 (01:16:56):
Yeah, And I think too when you look back at
other shows, was whether it be like Mike and Mike
or Jesus and Marrow and like no offense to those guys,
but you can see what happens with the break or
like Mike Our Francess and Mad Dog, like Belichick and
Brady you can see. But all these breakups you can
see exactly what happens. There's one person that thinks they're

(01:17:16):
the star and they're like, I want to go get
my thing. I'm bigger than you and this whereas like
I know, like personally, I think PFT feels the same way.
If we split up, would I be able to have
a successful podcast. Yeah, but it would be like sixty
percent of or fifty percent or forty percent of what
part of my take is. We would never separately be

(01:17:38):
able to reach one hundred percent of what part might take.

Speaker 6 (01:17:43):
Yeah, that was a big part of it. Like if
I were to leave, I could start a show. It
could be good, but it would never and honestly, it
would never surpass what part of my take was, and
I would always be trying to chase that.

Speaker 5 (01:17:53):
Right, Right, it's not a healthy us each of us separately,
if you if you just said round numbers, like if
you're going one hundred percent, I think each of us
separately would reach seventy percent of our audience right. Separately,
we would never get a hundred, right, And like, so
it's the powers together, is like you like, I just
know that's what it is.

Speaker 1 (01:18:12):
Neither of us are the star so to speak, you
know what I mean?

Speaker 5 (01:18:16):
Like we're like, oh, it's because of me, it's the
whole thing, right, And it's all the guys too. Like
the great thing about our show too, is like Hank
is a very big part of it. He gets like
he actually gets upset because we we like like when
it comes to like money and stuff or like things
are splitting up, we'll split it a third third. With Hank,
he's like, I didn't do shit. We're like, dude, but

(01:18:36):
you're like, you're a big part of this. You you
built this with us in Max and means all these guys, Yeah,
did you hear that?

Speaker 1 (01:18:43):
Hank?

Speaker 5 (01:18:46):
He does, so he gets mad at us when we
do like I mean it's not for it's not we're
not talking about like our contracts. We're talking about like
when we have revenue splits for things, we always make
sure everyone else gets them because like we.

Speaker 1 (01:18:56):
Can't do this with just the two of us, like
it's the whole team.

Speaker 3 (01:19:00):
But if you get so that's awesome because I agree
with you, like having the chemistry is way more than
just going off and trying to do your own thing right.
Part of my take has been on the top for
so long, like what what's the next thing? You guys
are trying to chase, Like what is the next Like, oh,
this would be awesome to achieve this.

Speaker 6 (01:19:13):
I don't know that we think that way. I think
we let the show evolve naturally depending on what's happening.
You can plan everything out and if it doesn't happen organically,
then it's not going to be that successful. But yeah,
we're just going to keep doing what we do and
try to find like the most natural paths for us
to evolve. It Like, if there's new platform that comes
out that we have to be on, then we'll find

(01:19:35):
somebody that knows about that platform and we'll figure out
how to optimize that. But I don't think that we've
never sat down and had like a strategic like two
year what's our what's our two year plan? Well?

Speaker 5 (01:19:45):
Yeah, and I think it's a very it's a weird
feeling because in the media business, in sports and anything
in business ever, a lot of people are always like
what's the next thing, what's the next thing, what's the
next thing? You see like someone a media person like
STARTUPO and they're on ESPN and they're doing this, and
it's like they're climbing the ladder.

Speaker 1 (01:20:04):
The bb the barstool.

Speaker 5 (01:20:05):
Van Talk's experience kind of told us like, hey, we're
good where we're at on the ladder, you know what
I mean, Like we're never gonna be movie stars, We're
never gonna have, you know, a Netflix show. But I
don't give a fuck like where we're like it's I
think it's a very great feeling to have to be
like at peace at what you have and not constantly

(01:20:26):
being like, what's the next thing. I haven't thought about
what's the next thing since barstool Van Talk, and it's
been the best feeling in the world, because what's the
next thing? It's Sunday night, Tuesday night, Thursday night.

Speaker 1 (01:20:37):
We're gonna record.

Speaker 5 (01:20:38):
Yeah, And I you know, obviously, in the back of
my head, I'm like, we're getting older. Eventually we'll hit
a point where people start mocking us and be like,
you're the old guys.

Speaker 1 (01:20:45):
But we also have an audience that's grown old with us,
you know what I mean. So, and I.

Speaker 5 (01:20:51):
Welcome the time when we just get mocked for being
old and forgetting shit. Guess what, We're gonna keep doing
it and it's still gonna be fun. If I'm having
fun and I'm laughing, making me laugh, I'm making him laugh,
We're gonna keep doing it.

Speaker 6 (01:21:02):
And if people are busting bulls for being old, it
means they're still paying attention, We're still listening, right, and
they're busting their balls because it's fun to make fun
of people. That you listen to. Right, I get that
you can't take everything seriously. It's when they just stop
commenting altogether, right, that would be the That would be bad.

Speaker 1 (01:21:17):
That would be the moment.

Speaker 5 (01:21:18):
But even when they stopped, we'll probably keep doing it,
like we we joke about it all the time.

Speaker 1 (01:21:22):
If we stopped.

Speaker 5 (01:21:23):
If you told us barstool just cease to exist tomorrow,
part of my take cease to exist tomorrow, what would
you do? And the honest answer is I'd probably call
up p FD, Hank and Max and be like, hey,
you guys want to come over and watch some football,
and then we would just do the podcast just sitting there,
Like when we flew here yesterday. We just did a
full podcast.

Speaker 1 (01:21:41):
On the plane.

Speaker 3 (01:21:42):
Yeah, like just talking.

Speaker 2 (01:21:43):
You know, I can tell you from experience, it's not
that bad when people make funny for forgetting stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:21:48):
Yeah, yeah, that's true.

Speaker 3 (01:21:50):
Yeah, you don't do it too.

Speaker 2 (01:21:52):
You don't have to be.

Speaker 3 (01:21:54):
Goldfish.

Speaker 6 (01:21:55):
What do you think we should do with the will
Compton Museum?

Speaker 2 (01:21:58):
I kind of like the rout he's going, He's just
add more company.

Speaker 1 (01:22:00):
Yeah, we're just gonna have all the will Compton.

Speaker 2 (01:22:01):
It's such a it's such a weird.

Speaker 1 (01:22:03):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:22:03):
When he brought it up the first time, it is
a very like It's like, yeah, I love that it
got built in uh in the first place. But if
he did away with it, it's like, no, it's forever,
no matter what, we were never going to do away
with it.

Speaker 1 (01:22:14):
But I do like all I.

Speaker 2 (01:22:15):
Told him, I was like, just protect that unless you
give it back to me. But protect that that redskins.

Speaker 1 (01:22:20):
Yes, I got that.

Speaker 5 (01:22:21):
But yeah, I do think that in like ten years,
if we have like fifty Will Comptons, just more or less,
it's all, it'd be very funny. Yes, I mean just
I who oh. And when Andrew Luck was here, I
gave him a tour of the Will Compton Museum and
I was like, and here's Will's jersey from Titans. Then
here's other Will Compton at a TCU tailgate, and it's.

Speaker 1 (01:22:42):
Just like ridiculous, that's awesome. Yeah, what did you.

Speaker 3 (01:22:45):
Think about the museum? He liked it, he did.

Speaker 2 (01:22:47):
Did he remember me as a player?

Speaker 1 (01:22:51):
Yes?

Speaker 6 (01:22:54):
Did you ever play against him?

Speaker 3 (01:22:56):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (01:22:57):
Don't you remember?

Speaker 2 (01:22:59):
Yeah? I don't know the Colts, Yeah, I think we
Twenty eighteen was this last year.

Speaker 8 (01:23:05):
I'm trying to think of twenty fifteen, we played the
NFC PF T would probably I'm trying to remember if
you if that team played the Cold.

Speaker 1 (01:23:11):
But he was injured a couple of the years for
like full years.

Speaker 3 (01:23:14):
Yeah, but we and twenty fifty Yeah, you know what
all the NFC East because I was an AFC sound.

Speaker 2 (01:23:19):
We did play at Indianapolis one time because that is
where I got a spinal cord concussion. Oh that's running down,
running down on kickoff.

Speaker 3 (01:23:25):
Yeah, spinal cord. The spiders for concussion just sounds way
worse than any concussion.

Speaker 2 (01:23:29):
It's like where the I don't even know the word,
but they narrow, like in your spine, like the fluid
lines that go down they kind of narrow, and they
get an MRI to see if there's anything off with it.

Speaker 3 (01:23:41):
Came out clean.

Speaker 2 (01:23:41):
Your body just goes like like a metal pole just
hits a you know, our bat just hits a pole.
It just rattled.

Speaker 6 (01:23:47):
Did they give you that that injection that's like it
makes you cold?

Speaker 1 (01:23:51):
You know they put you in a medical mountain.

Speaker 3 (01:23:53):
The little ice pick that goes up you talking about the.

Speaker 6 (01:23:56):
Die No, No, it like it like lowers your body temperature.

Speaker 1 (01:24:00):
Like tomorrow when he went through his thing.

Speaker 5 (01:24:02):
They like put him in a medically induced coma where
his body temperature was like eighty eight.

Speaker 3 (01:24:06):
No ship, yeah, I heard.

Speaker 6 (01:24:09):
And they got the clone out.

Speaker 3 (01:24:10):
The biggest injury you as I've ever sustained.

Speaker 5 (01:24:13):
I tore up my ankle real bad, like ligaments, tendons.
I still have terrible. I went actually to this place
called stretch Lab where they just stretch you out sure
and they do a test in front of a computer
and it shows like your weaknesses. And I was pretty
good overall, and then it was just two red circles
around my ankles and.

Speaker 6 (01:24:32):
So I got I've broken probably like eight or nine ribs,
I think, and one at one time. No, no, like
over the course of my life.

Speaker 1 (01:24:42):
Herniated disk that was bad?

Speaker 3 (01:24:44):
Are no joke?

Speaker 2 (01:24:45):
Yeah, I don't probably hernia that one I was.

Speaker 5 (01:24:49):
I was literally We actually did a They came over
to my house because I couldn't get off the floor
for three days. We did a podcast from my house.
I was just sleeping on the floor. I just kept
on telling my wife. I was like, just fucking shoot
me play.

Speaker 3 (01:25:02):
The Cardinals one time and I did something to like
my s I joint and we stayed in Arizona for
the week before we went to San Francisco, and I
I literally just brushing my teeth, Yeah, getting out of bed,
any kind of movement. I was like, this is the
worst thing ever. Yeah. The only thing that helped us
like kind of walking. So I'd stand up all day
walking a little, and then once I got to bed,
I was like, I just I prayed to God I
can walk when I get up in the morning.

Speaker 5 (01:25:23):
When I heard nim I just the last time I
was playing basketball and I was like I felt it,
Like I felt it like a real like knife in
your back. I was like, no, I'm good. I kept playing,
got it in an uber home, got out of the
uber and literally could not move. I stood at like
the lamp post for thirty minutes because I couldn't move.

Speaker 2 (01:25:40):
I was it was yeah back injury.

Speaker 5 (01:25:43):
The NFL ye like yeah, like, you guys just did
that question to fucking make us look like yeah, I
think as I said, I was like, yeah, these guys
are easy. I'm talking about spinal concussion. That is like
I went for a loose ball and pick up and.

Speaker 6 (01:26:02):
It was like I got internally decapitated. We had to
put my head back on inside my neck. I've had
four concussions, But how many do you guys, Yeah, well
four diagnosed I've had, But how many would you guys say,
you're at.

Speaker 3 (01:26:18):
I I honestly, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:26:20):
The only time I ever got held out the rest
of the game and we were already in the fourth
quarter and it was the last game of the season.
I passed my baseline in the locker room and was
ready to go back out there.

Speaker 3 (01:26:29):
But they're like, you know, basically.

Speaker 2 (01:26:31):
A minor concussion a mile of concussion. Yeah, but probably
several I mean I had that. I had that instance
where I'm like stiff internally for a minute several times.
But every time, like I passed the test on the
sideline and you're kind of just you're you're back with it,
or so I think I am, and you're just like,
you know, you get back. I don't know how many diagnosed.

Speaker 3 (01:26:52):
I've had, like three or four maybe diagnosed, like how
to sit out those types of things. But there's always
the you're in the middle of the game, you take
a hard hit, you're kind of like, that was crazy, Yeah,
that was wild.

Speaker 6 (01:27:04):
They wake up the next day and you know that
something's not right, Yeah, that's the worst part.

Speaker 3 (01:27:08):
That's kind of how like the first I think we're
talking about a couple of weeks ago. The first couple,
like the first week of camp. I feel like it's
just one long concussion because you have like your helmet
on all week and you're like it even hurts to
have the helmet on. Then you have headache the next
day you're next door and so like, and then after
a week you're like, Okay, this is my new normal,
it's my new baseline. Yeah, And then I would always
go through like as soon as the season ended, I'd

(01:27:29):
have like three weeks of fog where I'd be like
kind of like tired, lethargic. I'm like putting words together
was more tough than usual, and then all of a sudden,
like three weeks and I'd be like, Okay, I feel fine,
it's all. It's all good now.

Speaker 6 (01:27:39):
Every time you can't remember something in the back of
your head or you're like, oh fuck, that's a concussion.

Speaker 3 (01:27:43):
As I get older, it is.

Speaker 1 (01:27:44):
Yeah, sometimes.

Speaker 6 (01:27:48):
It's normal to forget stuff. It's you're psyching yourself out
when you're like, oh.

Speaker 3 (01:27:52):
It's so interesting, like being a young football player compared
to being an old like as you get older, because
when you're young, like truly, if you died on the
grid eye, if you like went and there, like they
checked your pulson, like he's done with us like that,
you literally think yourself like I I only praying today's
that day for me. Yeah, And then as you get older,
you have kids or whatever, and you're like holy shit,
because they're like a what if something actually happened? Yeah,

(01:28:15):
starts now that I'm done. I was talking to JP
by this earlier today, like I feel like I have
to constantly stay ahead of the sticks. Is a part
of like nutrition and all that stuff, because it's like
you're going to decay eventually. Just try to outlast it
as long as possible. Yeah, scared, So I'm like super
hyper sensitive.

Speaker 6 (01:28:29):
But one thing I noticed growing up because I played
I played like different sports. I played a little bit
of football, I played soccer, I played basketball, I played baseball.
Every coach in every sport besides football knew that concussions
were bad. I swear to God, this was not like
people say, like knowing what we know now about concussions
and that they're not good. It's like I remember being

(01:28:50):
eight years old and somebody would get hit in the
head and the coach would be like, no, we got
to make sure you don't get concussed. You got to
sit out for a little bit, like going through high
school on the high school soccer team, you got a
freshman year, somebody got a concussion. Coach is like, you're
sitting out two weeks. We can't risk that. And then
in football they'd be like, yeah, we don't know, like concussions.
It could be a good thing, could be a bad thing,

(01:29:11):
Like it was the only sport that did not like
even wrestlers. Wrestlers wuld be like, yeah, you can cuss,
you can't wrestle.

Speaker 5 (01:29:17):
And I just think you're like a pussy if you
don't like yeah, truly old clips like I do a
radio hit in Chicago with Wattle and Sylvie and Sylvie
or sorry. Wattle played for the Bears and there's a
clip of him it was John Madden, Uh broadcast a game.
He got cost like five different times and John Madden's like, oh,
he's got the cobwebs again. It's like this is insane.

Speaker 3 (01:29:38):
That video of like Kiko Alonso playing and then he
like walks over the other sideline. Yeah, he's just so
like not there. Guys like, oh, don't know what sideline
he's on it?

Speaker 6 (01:29:47):
Yeah, yeah, he's like crawling off on his elbows. And
then I was like, it looks to be a little
shaken up.

Speaker 1 (01:29:53):
Yeaheah, get those cops.

Speaker 2 (01:29:56):
Wild Man was crazy.

Speaker 5 (01:29:57):
But I know you guys had a last question before
I have a question for you will before we This is, Oh,
you go for the last question.

Speaker 2 (01:30:04):
I was gonna ask because you talked about the first time.
I wanted to. I wanted to know if there's ever
been like a friction between you guys. You talked about
the first time you were negotiating. It was very hard
to say no is every time you thought he was
leaving or vice versas. The first was kind of weird
having just entering into whatever, whether it's text conversation or
in person.

Speaker 5 (01:30:22):
I don't I want to say it was weird the
first time that he had to like talk to people.
It wasn't like because we talked about it, like we
had a very open conversation about it. It's like, yeah,
you have to do this, And it wasn't like tension.
It was more just like bummed out, like this would suck. Yeah,
it sucks, you know what I mean. Like, it wasn't like,
oh fuck, he's gonna like I can't believe he's gonna

(01:30:42):
do this. It's more like, I know how the business works.
If someone offers him something crazy that he can't turn down,
this is gonna bum me out real bad.

Speaker 1 (01:30:50):
So it's more having that like hover over your head. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:30:52):
And the first time I got dragged out, I think
for like six months, the whole negotia. Yeah, and that
that drags you down. And and it's like everything's developing
on both sides, Like barstool was changing. It was like
right before the pen deal, I think, And so things
were changing on that end, things were changing with the
companies that were offering me stuff on the other end.
And it was just like I would I would make
sure to tell big Cat like once a month, Hey,

(01:31:14):
here's where we're at, just so you know, this sucks.
And then finally when you make the decision, it's like, okay, that.

Speaker 2 (01:31:19):
How we were coming into the office, know, and then
it's all up in the air.

Speaker 6 (01:31:24):
I don't think it was weird at all. I just
didn't like when I was thinking about it too much.

Speaker 2 (01:31:28):
Yeah, And I.

Speaker 5 (01:31:29):
Will say the pen deal kind of sucked in the
fact that I wasn't allowed to say anything to anyone,
so it was just Dave, Eric and I. No one
else knew because it's a publicly traded company, so it
was like very.

Speaker 8 (01:31:40):
And you're in with barbol you say anything because the
stock nothing literally nothing, Like we had to signed all
this paperwork, so like I couldn't tell PFT until like
the day before was announced, and that sucked.

Speaker 1 (01:31:51):
But it also was.

Speaker 5 (01:31:51):
Like I don't I in my head, I'm like, it
is good for all of us. We're all gonna, you know,
make some money off this. So it's like if I
say something thing to someone and it sucks up this.

Speaker 1 (01:32:02):
Deal, I'll never I'll never be able to deal with, Right, So.

Speaker 5 (01:32:05):
That did suck that whole, like having to not tell
literally a soul.

Speaker 1 (01:32:10):
Yeah, Like I think the only the only people who knew.

Speaker 5 (01:32:13):
Were Dave Erica and then I told my wife that
was it, Like there wasn't anyone else.

Speaker 1 (01:32:17):
So that that did suck.

Speaker 5 (01:32:18):
But it worked out, and then it didn't work out,
and then it worked out again.

Speaker 3 (01:32:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:32:23):
I mean, you guys probably would have been hired if it.

Speaker 3 (01:32:24):
Wasn't for Penn probably would have been hired, would not
have we signed right before the pen was done.

Speaker 2 (01:32:32):
Yeah, sign well, big cat saying to this point, obviously
do you take on investor money and everything else? They
have the funds.

Speaker 1 (01:32:38):
When did you guys sign twenty.

Speaker 2 (01:32:39):
February February twenty twenty that we are like a few
weeks later you guys.

Speaker 1 (01:32:43):
Well, we had it had been it works for like
six months the Super Bowl. Yeah anyway, Yeah, but.

Speaker 5 (01:32:49):
Like Penn coming on to barstool, their big thing was
like we have we're a billion dollar corporation. We're going
to invest in the company. So, like your guys, deal
probably is because Penn Box.

Speaker 2 (01:33:01):
Our first deal though was just pure split revenue.

Speaker 3 (01:33:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:33:04):
Yeah, we just had.

Speaker 2 (01:33:07):
A conversation about MG and we were like, oh yeah,
we're just like, hey, we'll take a higher rev share
because they was like, look, you guys already have a
little something going on. We don't want your i P.
That's also in all the Caller Daddy stuff was going down. Yeah. Yeah,
he said, you guys can keep your i P. We
can talk about an MG and then splitting fifty to fifty.
So we decided to take like higher.

Speaker 5 (01:33:25):
It was all revenue split our yeah, but Penn was
able to We were able to take chances on a
lot of other stuff, which was awesome.

Speaker 1 (01:33:31):
All right, is you ready for my question?

Speaker 2 (01:33:33):
I'm ready your last the last question, my last question.

Speaker 3 (01:33:38):
Yeah, I just want to know about pop punk, what
the what the future holds for pop punk?

Speaker 1 (01:33:41):
That's a good question.

Speaker 3 (01:33:42):
We're smarting out.

Speaker 6 (01:33:43):
Kids, so uhair we got we got Frankie having a
kid I think in what May, yeah, and then Roan
having kids in May too, and it swinds yeah, which yeah,
and so we found out how to say it, like
right at the same time, we were doing a punk
practice and then Frankie is up there and he's singing
like that Creed song with arms Wide Open or My

(01:34:06):
Sacrifice or something like that. And then he's like, and
by the way, guys, I'm singing this song because I'm
about to be a dad in May. And then Roan's like,
oh shit, so you're the first trimester right now. And
I was like there was some quick math from rowing
over there, like how does he know what fucking trimester
you're in right now? Like forty five minutes later, Roan
gets on the mic. He's like, guys, I'm also.

Speaker 1 (01:34:26):
Going to be a dad and all, and we're having twins.

Speaker 6 (01:34:29):
Just completely Alpha and Frankie shot to no, we got it.
We got a couple of songs that are in the
tank that we've recorded sound pretty good. We're gonna shoot
some music videos for him and then maybe play some
festivals this summer.

Speaker 3 (01:34:41):
I love it. Second part question is if you guys
are ever back in Nashville. I want to come back
on stage.

Speaker 1 (01:34:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:34:46):
I enjoy that so much. Yeah, being able to sing
that's my favorite genre of music. I love it. I'm
all about it. I don't care if I sound good
or not. I am all about that.

Speaker 1 (01:34:56):
Okay, you're in love it, yep.

Speaker 3 (01:34:58):
So Beer Olympics for sure. So it sounds like we're
not even leaving bar Storre anymore.

Speaker 1 (01:35:03):
All right.

Speaker 5 (01:35:03):
My last question for Will, because we're probably never gonna
speak again, do you do you want one last time
for p F T and I to explain to you
why you go for two down fourteen with like five minutes?
You want us to explain it to you because I
like its from now when this decision or next season

(01:35:27):
when the situation comes up.

Speaker 1 (01:35:28):
And you're like, what the fuck why are they doing this,
We're not picking up the call. We're not gonna help you.

Speaker 2 (01:35:33):
You don't have to. I still just tweet it out.

Speaker 1 (01:35:35):
Okay, well, we're not gonna help you through this.

Speaker 2 (01:35:36):
You can explain it, but we've also talked about it,
and you and pf T can explain those rules to me.
Every coach that's come through has talked about that's not true.
They can shove analytics up there ast.

Speaker 1 (01:35:47):
That it's not analytics, it's just math.

Speaker 2 (01:35:50):
I understand them.

Speaker 1 (01:35:52):
You don't understand.

Speaker 2 (01:35:53):
There's no there's no math for moment.

Speaker 6 (01:35:55):
Do you know that any you know anything? There will
is doing the thing where you use You use the
term analytics to describe a number that you don't like. Yes,
but you use all the numbers that you do like,
all the corrects, like if you will, let me ask
you this. You're down by twenty one points, it's the
third quarter. What's your percentage of run versus pass?

Speaker 1 (01:36:12):
Gonna be high pass? That's analytics.

Speaker 6 (01:36:15):
And here he goes to the fucking stat nerd over
here doing analytics.

Speaker 1 (01:36:18):
On us and the crunching numbers. Nerd boy, Yeah, look,
I don't math.

Speaker 6 (01:36:23):
It's never won a Super Bowl?

Speaker 3 (01:36:24):
Will get them.

Speaker 6 (01:36:26):
They don't even use numbers for the Super Bowls. It's
it's math numbers.

Speaker 2 (01:36:30):
I understand it's math, bro, but it's like, Uh, if
you don't get it, you're gonna have You're gonna that
doesn't mean you're going to get it the.

Speaker 1 (01:36:38):
Next Statistically, if you trust those, it's.

Speaker 9 (01:36:41):
Fifty to fifty if you have a good play. Yeah,
but and what about it? Just think of the negative,
not the positive. Mike Vrabel, the guy you love, did
this against the Dolphins and it won them the game.

Speaker 1 (01:36:55):
I know Taylor knows that was Yeahami two years ago were.

Speaker 3 (01:37:02):
This is what.

Speaker 2 (01:37:05):
Dan Campbell Lions a couple of years ago when they're
instead of instead of kicking a field.

Speaker 1 (01:37:10):
Goal, something different, talking talking to another.

Speaker 2 (01:37:14):
That's another down.

Speaker 5 (01:37:16):
Fourteen with with with three possessions left the game five minutes,
six minutes, you score a touchdown, you go for two.

Speaker 6 (01:37:26):
Why would you do that, because if you guess you.

Speaker 5 (01:37:30):
Win the game touchdown stopping the ball again, you don't
do it three persessions. When people ask like, would you
do it in the third quarter? No, it's a very
specific set of circumstances where you're down fourteen and there's
say five minutes left. You know, the only way you're
gonna win this game is you got to score, stop
and score. You can't let them score again. So you're
gonna have to make up those fourteen go for two

(01:37:52):
the first time. If you don't get it, you go
for to the second time. Statistically speaking, most NFL offenses
have two point plays that are over fifty percent, So
you're having two chances over fifty percent chance you're gonna
get one of them.

Speaker 1 (01:38:03):
But if you get the first one, you can win
in regulation.

Speaker 6 (01:38:05):
And does it always work, No, it doesn't. Sometimes sometimes
it does get it right here, but it will work
more often than do that.

Speaker 5 (01:38:11):
Going for two with how much time? Two forty left,
they're down eight, so they just scored. It was twenty
seven to thirteen, so they were down fourteen, they got
the touchdown, they went for two, twenty seven to twenty one.
Then they stopped, got a touchdown, kicked the extra point.

Speaker 1 (01:38:27):
One in regulation.

Speaker 2 (01:38:29):
Yeah, I mean I don't hate that all right, Okay,
let's go. The time we started to go back and forth, though,
was not over a well, no Campbell specific, it was
analytics overall field goal moment as.

Speaker 5 (01:38:41):
What and I truly believe in did Dan Campbell, Like,
I think there's a shock factor when he goes for
these when you're sitting on your couch, But if you
talk to anyone on the lines, they're like, we know
we're going for it, Like we know we're doing this.
There's we're playing pedal to the medal. You can disagree
with the pedal to the medal, but he's consistently that
way all the time. He's not going off gut vine, right,

(01:39:01):
He's not like, oh the team exactly. It's like we're
gonna fucking go for it and we're gonna step on
their throat, right, so and.

Speaker 2 (01:39:08):
They don't get it.

Speaker 1 (01:39:09):
You're like, look at the against the Lions.

Speaker 6 (01:39:12):
And look at the Commanders this year in general, if
you want to talk about like the upside of doing it.
Dan Quinn was as a great I think he was
more aggressive. Yeah, and it worked and we got to
the fucking NFC Championship game, like Washington did that the
command because.

Speaker 3 (01:39:27):
Of the aggressive nature the Eagles was crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:39:29):
But the Commanders Lions game, Yeah, they're nine point dogs.
They go forward on their first fourth down.

Speaker 5 (01:39:36):
They don't get it. Marcus Mariota, like they everything gets
sucked up. Dan Quinn wasn't like, oh ship, you know,
he didn't get it. No, he went and then they
got the next three of them.

Speaker 6 (01:39:45):
You know what the Dans do really good. They put
themselves in the mindset of an opposing teams fan, which
more coaches should do. Correct Like if you're watching at
home and you're a fan of the Philadelphia Eagles and
that first drive, I know we got our asses kicked,
but that first drive, marching down the field, we keep
going for it on fourth down. Eagles fans are like,
I wish they'd fucking kick a field goal. Yeah, I

(01:40:07):
wish they punt, you know. And if you can convert
on those like, think about how how defeated they are
when we do the thing that they don't want us
to do. That's how more coaches should should look at it,
Like what is he afraid of? On the other side?
Is he is he happy that I'm kicking the ball?
If so, fucking go for it, well you're nuts out.

Speaker 3 (01:40:24):
This is football, to be honest with you, Like that
made so much time. Yeah, the Commanders first drive, they
go for it twice on fourth down. I just said this.
In the third time, they end up kicking the.

Speaker 6 (01:40:37):
Field Yeah, yeah, you should have gone for it.

Speaker 3 (01:40:39):
The four.

Speaker 1 (01:40:39):
I think that was like and that's.

Speaker 6 (01:40:43):
It was still short. But that's where the math comes
into it, where that field goal you have a higher
percentage of making that than you would kicking like a
fifty one numbers again, but yeah, I would have been
fine with going for that, would have been Okay, numbers,
don't be scared.

Speaker 1 (01:40:54):
Yeah, they're your friend.

Speaker 3 (01:40:55):
I'll be scared.

Speaker 6 (01:40:56):
Yeah, what's your favorite number?

Speaker 3 (01:40:57):
Seventy seven? Fifty one?

Speaker 1 (01:40:59):
Okay, it's pretty good. It's pretty good answer, simple, good answers.
But I mean the Eagles, like.

Speaker 6 (01:41:06):
Like the middle of the field area fifty one.

Speaker 2 (01:41:09):
You think I have a brain to think like that.

Speaker 1 (01:41:11):
That's not that hard.

Speaker 3 (01:41:14):
She just brought it out of nowhere too.

Speaker 5 (01:41:16):
Yeah, Eagles and are two of the most aggressive teams.
The Eagles specifically, they're very aggressive.

Speaker 2 (01:41:25):
You look im, I'm with you.

Speaker 1 (01:41:26):
Here's some deep math. Sounds like you want to I.

Speaker 2 (01:41:29):
Don't want to punt.

Speaker 3 (01:41:30):
I like the three taking the three over going for
giving your fun hypothetical.

Speaker 1 (01:41:35):
He knows he knows the crystal a lot of these coaches,
and you go for it in that hypothetic, have to
go for.

Speaker 2 (01:41:41):
I know I'm looking. I'm looking for a d to
where the math comes in and you're like, all right,
we're gonna pump the ball. That's what Ultimately, I want
to see my homes down for inside the ten a
minute twenty left, two time outs.

Speaker 3 (01:41:52):
I just I want to see that only quarterback to
go seven and Eagles should go.

Speaker 1 (01:41:55):
For like the Eagles should any chance they get in
five their own forty five.

Speaker 5 (01:42:00):
Yeah, but I know it's stupid, like if you, uh,
if Eagles are let's say up seven, they go up
seven with a touchdown. Like I'm not a fan of this,
but when it comes to Patrick Mahomes, I would be
go for two to make it two possession games, because like,
if you keep it a one possion game with Patrick Mahomes,
he's gonna kill you.

Speaker 1 (01:42:15):
He's gonna kill you.

Speaker 5 (01:42:16):
And I normally would say, go go kick that act
go up eight so that they have to score and
they get a two point conversion. But with Patrick Mahomes, specifically,
if you have a chance to go up two scores, you.

Speaker 3 (01:42:26):
Have to do it. If he's got the ball in
his hands, last the last position in the game of ball,
his hands and it's a one score game.

Speaker 6 (01:42:33):
So but think about this. Now, a lot of these
coaches that are going forward short, they're calling plays on
second down knowing they don't have to get ten.

Speaker 1 (01:42:42):
That's what Campbell does. It opens up the play book.

Speaker 3 (01:42:45):
Yes, right, yeah, yeah, Now you don't have to get
a certainly sifitting four yards per.

Speaker 5 (01:42:48):
Carry right when it's when it's still, when it's third
and eight, you don't say we have to throw it
to the sticks. You have to just throw it.

Speaker 3 (01:42:56):
You gotta calls.

Speaker 1 (01:42:57):
Yeah right, I like it.

Speaker 2 (01:42:59):
Yeah, I don't hate it.

Speaker 6 (01:43:00):
Like we converted.

Speaker 3 (01:43:01):
So punting is going to die soon. The commander.

Speaker 2 (01:43:07):
I still disagree with her not going for a versus
taking the three. What do you mean obviously he's not
a guaranteed.

Speaker 5 (01:43:14):
Played to win the game in what situation he played
win basically Detroit last year he was.

Speaker 1 (01:43:19):
But it worked.

Speaker 3 (01:43:20):
No, I didn't it worked.

Speaker 6 (01:43:22):
They didn't execute he did it. He dropped the play
that he was wide open.

Speaker 1 (01:43:27):
Part of the process. You also, you also just assume
every field goal is made.

Speaker 2 (01:43:33):
Yeah you don't.

Speaker 1 (01:43:34):
You you don't use the numbers.

Speaker 5 (01:43:36):
When it comes to the field, Like I remember the
Lion's kicker last year, it was like outdoors over forty
five yards.

Speaker 1 (01:43:42):
He was like, fifty. You don't use those numbers.

Speaker 5 (01:43:47):
You're just like.

Speaker 1 (01:43:49):
Kickers, Brandon Aubrey, you do. It's all there, It's sixty years.

Speaker 3 (01:43:53):
He got fair.

Speaker 1 (01:43:54):
That's fair.

Speaker 6 (01:43:55):
I think another big part of it with the commanders
was we didn't really trust our defense.

Speaker 1 (01:43:59):
So it's like that's all.

Speaker 5 (01:44:00):
Also like you saying, you guys was sucked up at
the end of the season. It's like we can't. We
can't expose them that.

Speaker 3 (01:44:05):
Have been so great to see Hutchinson come back for
that Super Bowl.

Speaker 2 (01:44:09):
What a story that would We'll bring up this, uh
this twist questions got it for?

Speaker 1 (01:44:15):
This is the last time Shirm is ever gonna pull
up anything for this podcast.

Speaker 5 (01:44:19):
Yeah you want to you guys, by the way, you
guys can all write down numbers. We'll I'll tell you
all is a package?

Speaker 1 (01:44:26):
Okay, all right? Done? Whatever it is by a dollar,
no deal. Oh I like that.

Speaker 2 (01:44:35):
This twist question.

Speaker 1 (01:44:37):
Right down your number, right down your number right now?
If it's one dollar over Shirm terms of telling everyone
your number.

Speaker 2 (01:44:47):
This twisted question is brought to us by Twisted Tea.
Twisted teas a refreshing hard iced tea, maybe a real
brood treat, real brood tea and five percent and very
twisted tea goes down smoo. There is no carbonation, which
makes it easy to drink all day long. Twist the

or watching with friends at home. Twisted tea is there
to turn up your game day. Keep it twisted with
the boys and grab a refreshing twisted tea.

Speaker 6 (01:45:21):
Well, I'm gonna defend you. There's a lot of people
that are like, well, Will Compton dumb jock.

Speaker 1 (01:45:26):
Dumb jock.

Speaker 6 (01:45:27):
Will was never good enough to be a jock. Okay,
so just chill the fuck out your trolls. Back off,
back off.

Speaker 2 (01:45:40):
Oh my god, if there was a podcast even the
bar still sports that you somewhat enjoyed working with, what
would be your advice for them in the future as
they pursue a new opportunity.

Speaker 1 (01:45:52):
This is very clearly about Brendan Walker.

Speaker 6 (01:45:54):
See if prepares to leave.

Speaker 1 (01:45:56):
I would first say you're making a terrible mistake.

Speaker 6 (01:45:59):
No kidding, Uh what would be I would I would
wish them good luck and I would say, uh, maybe
maybe start your own meme coin.

Speaker 1 (01:46:11):
Really bring the community to get smart smart, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:46:14):
I feel and it's always one step ahead.

Speaker 1 (01:46:17):
Yeah, uh real advice.

Speaker 5 (01:46:19):
I would say, the outside world gets very noisy and
you just have to like you guys know, with the
locker room, it's as long as the people inside the
room are feel good about what they're doing making each
other laugh. Everything else is just noise. It really is like,
it's as long as we make each other laugh, and
Max and Hank and Memes and all, well we all

(01:46:41):
make each other laugh.

Speaker 1 (01:46:42):
Whatever.

Speaker 5 (01:46:43):
People, people are gonna nitpick every little thing you do
in this profession and it's just noise.

Speaker 1 (01:46:48):
Yeah, that's it.

Speaker 6 (01:46:49):
Don't try to chase anything. Yeah, focus it cats right, focus.

Speaker 1 (01:46:53):
On like and you can't listen.

Speaker 5 (01:46:55):
When you listen to the noise, you you then change
how you act, you know what I mean. Like, there
is such a thing as too much feedback where it's
like if one person says, oh I didn't like this
or I didn't like that, then you change it. Like
there's there's there are people I can guarantee you I've
shut off most of the outside noise. But there I
can guarantee you there are awls who don't like our

(01:47:17):
fastest two minutes. Oh yeah, And imagine if we listen
to them and not listen to the silent majority of
people who love it and who like they're they're not
saying anything because they love it, you know what I mean.
It's the vocal minority that you can't let them dictate
how you do your content.

Speaker 6 (01:47:33):
It's also something that we forget all the time that
there are a lot of people that listen to the
podcast that don't tweet at us, right, they don't have
social media, that don't comment on YouTube, that don't the majority, yeah,
the majority.

Speaker 1 (01:47:44):
So like you're not hearing feedback from them.

Speaker 6 (01:47:47):
You're hearing feedback from people that like, are very active
and part of that, which is great. Like sometimes it's
good feedback, but you can't don't don't change what you're
trying to do because like, oh, there's five people that
told us.

Speaker 5 (01:47:59):
This sucks, right, I love, I mean, I love the
people who interact with the show on Twitter, Reddit or
wherever they're they're doing the YouTube comments. But like, you
have to remember that ninety nine point of the people
are listening are not on those things and if you
if so, if you listen to just those things, you're
just gonna cater to the point one percent and then

(01:48:19):
it's gonna change everything you do.

Speaker 3 (01:48:22):
Greatest podcast, don't listen to the noise.

Speaker 1 (01:48:25):
Just be your be yourself. Boys.

Speaker 6 (01:48:27):
You could also do like a caller daddy and just
pivot to talking about trauma.

Speaker 1 (01:48:30):
Yeah, I get real deep.

Speaker 6 (01:48:32):
With Also, I'd love to hear that.

Speaker 5 (01:48:33):
I would say for you guys specifically, like just wait
for us to do stuff and then just rip it off.

Speaker 2 (01:48:38):
Oh, we'll be out there. I think we're going to
three days a week.

Speaker 3 (01:48:40):
Yeah, yeah, what did he say?

Speaker 5 (01:48:42):
Really?

Speaker 2 (01:48:43):
Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday.

Speaker 3 (01:48:44):
That's that's what we're just talking about. A couple of
days ago we're gonna do.

Speaker 1 (01:48:46):
I love that if their pod came out on Sundays,
it would be so good.

Speaker 5 (01:48:50):
I thought this was I actually thought, you guys sitting
down with us is gonna be just like an end
of a five year bit where you're like, yeah, we
we honestly like Dave hired us to top of you
guys and just see if you were cool with it.

Speaker 1 (01:49:02):
It's like we passed. We were pretty cool with it.

Speaker 3 (01:49:07):
I can't wait to see what you guys do next.
We can do it. It's gonna be awesome.

Speaker 1 (01:49:10):
Man. We love you guys.

Speaker 2 (01:49:11):
That will never shake that when we shake, you decide
by the by the loud minority. They said it loud minority. Yeah,
but you guys take it real serious. Loud minority. You
guys don't mean ship.

Speaker 1 (01:49:23):
You don't like minorities. Is that what you're saying?

Speaker 5 (01:49:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:49:26):
He put some on.

Speaker 1 (01:49:28):
He was like, you were emphasizing the wrong word.

Speaker 6 (01:49:30):
There you loud minority. Min You shut the fuck up minority.

Speaker 1 (01:49:35):
The the.

Speaker 5 (01:49:39):
Uh. I've told both of you this separately, but like
you guys are going to kill it. And I'm I'm
I'm proud of you guys one because it's a really
hard business to be in. And I'm happy for you
guys because it's a dream. Like you get to keep
doing your dream and you get paid one hundred and
forty million.

Speaker 3 (01:49:57):
Do appreciate that and that conversation still and the conversation
that was awesome.

Speaker 1 (01:50:02):
I'm happy for you guys. We get a dollar.

Speaker 6 (01:50:05):
Ye. I hope, I hope that you guys are successful
because I think that means if people come to Barstool,
they get big, they go somewhere else in their success.
That means that more people who are talented on the
come up are gonna want to work for Barstool to
that same opportunity.

Speaker 1 (01:50:19):
So I'm a big Rising Tide lifts.

Speaker 6 (01:50:21):
Also, it's guys. Also one piece of advice, if one
of you could like accidentally go live on Instagram while
you're boning somebody, that would be that would be awesome.

Speaker 5 (01:50:31):
The PFT is right though, the rising Tide thing, like
the when you realize that, like this world is too
tough anyway, and like the pie is big enough, like
everyone get a slice of. Not everything's gonna be a competition.
Not everyone's gonna be like, oh they did that, fuck
them like that? So you'll kill yourself doing that.

Speaker 6 (01:50:48):
Yeah, I never want to become an old bitter guy
in the business, right that that hates it when people
are successful, right right?

Speaker 2 (01:50:54):
We love you, guys, appreciate you. Yes, it's been a
good little pot, godspeed, love it one hundred and forty million.

Speaker 5 (01:51:04):
Sure, I'm thinking corner office like that. Okay, talk about
you guys, to talk ball would walk out of the room.

Speaker 3 (01:51:12):
I'd be upset. I'd I'd be sad. I mean, if
you paid a.

Speaker 1 (01:51:17):
Lot, it's like, yeah, it's like you guys hypocritical, you
can't take Yeah, it's.

Speaker 6 (01:51:21):
A great opportunity.

Speaker 3 (01:51:22):
