Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:11):
Oh to losers. What up everybody? I am lunchbox. I
know the most about sports, so I'll give it the
sports facts, my sports opinions, because I'm pretty much a
sports genius. What's up, everybody? I'm Eddie and I know
the least about sports. But I'm your average sports fan,

(00:32):
your sports watcher. Don't know the who's who's, and I
sure as hell don't know the what's? What's? What's up? Y'all?
It's siss and I'm from the North. I'm an alpha male.
I live on the West side of Nashville and a
penthouse sweet currently with Bazer. We're looking to renew or
moved with different location in Nashville very soon, and on
the weekends we both shotgun and or beer bong hart

(00:54):
Seltzer's guys, without any further ado, over to you, Eddie,
what is one thing you all say? Go Cowboys, No
Spurs go. Never saw that comment. I don't know who's
who's you say something about professional sports. They're in it
for the money. Besides that that they with a lisp,

(01:16):
dry your mouth. They how do I put it? They're fixed?
Oh I used to think that. I think slowly, I've
changed my mind. On it. But at the very beginning,
when I started to gamble a lot, I'm like, look,
these lines are way too close for sure. Some of
these games have to be fifty continue to say it's
fixed for the angle of the No. I just I
didn't know he had changed, because I mean, the more

(01:37):
I gamble, the more I see lines that are just
like way off, like the Kansas line way off the
last basketball game. You know, stuff like that, stuff like
I mean, really, well, hey, that's the best example I
can think of Gonzaga lines like really stuff like that.
For the heads up on those bets, I really appreciate it.
You saw a line that was off and you didn't
hit up your boy to tell him to bet. He

(01:57):
knows it's off when it's over, because some one wins.
What I'm saying is, if they were fixed, they would
be a lot closer than minus one one and a
half or whatever. In the game in Kansas losed by thirty. Wow, coach,
please tell me you stopped watching that after two minutes.
I stopped watching it two minutes after the game ended. Yes,
why do why do you say this? Coach? What's happening?

(02:19):
Is there some kind of fixing going on and n
h L ref was fired this week because he gives
a penalty to Nashville in their game and he his
mic records him, and this is what he said. Here
you go, I'm hitting the clip. It's eight seconds. There
is an effort. I'm gonna try and bleep it, but
I'm not always perfect at the mouse. There wasn't much,

(02:42):
but I wanted to get a penalty that was quick.
Did you hear it? What do you say? He said? Either?
One much there, but I wanted to get an uh
Nashville a penalty on Nashville early. But does that have
anything to do with him making money off that? Or
did he just hate Nashville? Like what does it matter? Yeah, no,

(03:03):
it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter because you gotta think
that it's more believable that refs just do things because
they hate people or hate teams or whatever, versus they
make money off games, very very big difference. So you're
okay with him hating a team and just not okay
with it, but more believable than them doing it for money. No,

(03:27):
I I do agree. I agree that's more okay. Maybe
Nashville was rude to him last time he refed their game.
It's where he's like, you know what, I'm gonna get
a penalty on them early to show them, hey, quit
talking to me like that or you disrespect me. This
is what's going to happen. I think we see examples
of the refs just being a holes two people whenever
you see technicals being called in basketball, Like how many

(03:48):
coaches yell at refs a every and every one gets
in the complains about every call and then one time
and then one time I had an enough of your
crap technical? What about the other do they yelled in
your ear like five seconds ago, you're not to give
him a technical? Like it's just stupid. That to me
is obvious that this kind of stuff goes on all

(04:10):
the time. It was a makeup call, boys, what does
that mean? I don't know. Maybe the day, but they
do these new sets where they play the team twice
in or OW. Maybe he felt like Nashville got screwed
the you know, nuts and bolts, Nuts and bolts, we
got screwed. That's the thing too. Now I do agree
with the makeup calls, and I don't mind the makeup
calls as much like well, no, no, no no, no, because

(04:32):
let me just understand. Makeup call is like when someone
like dang, I should have called a past interference on that,
but I didn't someone to call it on the next
one that's kind of close. Or let's say they call
foul on someone in basketball and then they look at
the big board above when they do the replay and
they're like, oh, maybe that wasn't a foul, so they'll
call one on the other end to kind of makeup.
They won't or they won't call it. They used to

(04:53):
be able to do the out of balance where is
it close when you give it to the other team,
but now it's reviewed, Yes, that is one that is
very I got a lot more like when there's a
foul and the ball goes out of bounds, instead of
calling the foul, they just give the ball to the
wrong the team that had the ball, because like, he
was foul, but I don't want to get that guy
a foul. But now everything's reviewable, so it's like, well,

(05:14):
we gotta call it the right way or we gotta
call the foul. And but I don't mind the makeup
calls as much. But this is just me him being
mad at the Nashville and he got fired, he's done
because he shouldn't do that. But but is it more
of like he got fired because that's a no note
or you got caught and you're making this all look bad.
Cancel culture, Cancel culture because everyone does it. He can't

(05:37):
be the only one that does that. He can't be
the only one that does it. But when that audio
gets out makes everyone look bad like, oh, gotta do something.
NHL has to take care of that asap because that's
a problem. That's my little culture, coach. Is that what
that is? I just went with buzzword. Boys. My wife
shall always be like, hey, honey, do you really really

(05:57):
love me? And tell me your deepest, dark dark is secret?
And I go, So you tell her the one could
be a hot mike not doing that right here and
right now? Do you do? You usually tell her the
big one? I'd tell her the biggest secret getting I
killed a man? Okay, coach, hit and run. That's not funny. Now, stop,

(06:19):
that's not fun I thought it was a deer. It wasn't. Stop.
Have you ever a day goes by? I don't. But no,
let's be real. I got I met on those roads
at two am and there's a lot of homeless people
that are on those roads at the same time I'm
dodging them left and right. I mean, have you don't
ever driven on Nolan's Ville over here? No, I mean
they're local. Reference the chances of you hitting someone on

(06:41):
that street, I'd say, you ever drove the bluff at
two am? I mean, it's blind turn after blind turn,
It's it's an absolute. I've almost hit shopping carts. I've
run over pillows, blankets. Sometimes you'll throw their shoes in
the road and I'm like, oh my gosh, that person,
Oh god, it was just a shoe. Thank you, Ray,
you speak of homeless people. Lunch box and I played
Golf of the Day and we play it really really

(07:01):
nice courses all over Nashville, the best of the best.
And what hole is that? Coach eight nine number eight
coaches a beautiful hole. I mean it just goes. It's
a very long part. Four yeah, right down the railroad
tracks on the right hand, the tea boxes surrounded by
the tracks. That's always a sign of a nice course.

(07:22):
The tea boxes is surrounded by beautiful greenery, forestry, if
you will. And then there's there's a river running through
the back of it by the back of the tea box.
It's absolutely gorgeous. And right behind, right behind the tip
the black teeth. Yeah, if you're at the tips, yeah, uh,
there's a tent coach. There's a tent set up and

(07:44):
a little fireplace. You're gonna be fireless that why not
be homeless on a five star golf course. And not
not only that, but it's literally still on the tea box.
Like if they were going to move the tips all
the way to the back of the back of the
tea box, they would have to move the tent. They
had to knock on his tent be like, excuse me, man,
we're gonna and I know you're sleeping, but we're gonna

(08:05):
set the teas up here today, so you're gonna have
to move for the day. Like so, I don't know
if this story is gonna be sad or happy or
just a story of life, but it is really really bad.
I mean, there's homeless enclaves left and right in the bluff.
Well they did have tents. It was almost a tent city.
Look okay, well they're tramping, but sure anyway, right next
to the interstate city campers, yeah, you know, city camping

(08:28):
instead of going out to the woods, you go camp
in the city and see if you can sleep with
all the traffic noise. Some people find peace and traffic noise.
Let's say, here's the story. I'm not saying good, bad,
or and different. Just listen to it. So the all
they live, they live right next to the interstate. That's
where all their tents are and everything. Well, guess what
construction crew comes through. They're gonna widen the road and
do some work. So you could tell the weeks before

(08:48):
the construction started they informed the homeless people because they
started moving out and you could see their shopping carts
were pushed halfway up a hill. They had clothes and
stuffing coach. They're homeless hunks not So instead of being ambitious,
which I wanted them to be, I was like, guys,
get your crap out. It's obvious they're gonna start doing construction.
So you saw all their stuff one day about halfway

(09:10):
up the hill. The next day it was cleared out
and it was a dirt pile, and you know, they
just took an excavator and said, Okay, if you guys
aren't ambitious enough to move your stuff, we're taking it
usually suck to be a construction creer, like I mean,
I guess I gotta has to be awful and bring
little ee in there, the little excavator. Man versus bulldozer, Coach,
the bulldozers are always gonna win. You gotta move man

(09:32):
verse bull who wins man versus Ditka got five hundred
and twelve to nine? Uh, there was I did see you?
What is that I said about a homeless person? I
saw like I said, that wasn't gonna be a great story.
Was just a story that need to be told. There's one, Okay,
there's one right here on the way to pick up
a kid from daycare. He's not homeless, coach, What you're

(09:54):
talking about? King? A king gets gas at the gas station.
King's got money. I'm not talking about kings busted him
one day, so I don't. I don't think you busted him.
He's not trying to tell you he's homeless. He's actually working.
I hear you. But side of that, But he has
to be able to get a better job than selling
the newspaper. I think he makes good money selling Hi.
He drives a great suv, nicer than mine Mercedes. No,

(10:17):
but it's a local plug there shameless. I there's one
you exit, and I'm sitting in the stoplight. This dude's
got a cat sitting on the shoulder. I mean, he
has a cat that hangs out with him. And I
never knew a cat would just sit there like that. Yeah,

(10:41):
I'll give you a nickel for a pet. Get over here, Katie.
And then I've picked the kid up and I'm driving
back and there he is walking down the sidewalk with
his cat and the carrier, and I just thought that
was crazy. I've never I've only seen the homeless with dogs.
I've never seen him having a pet cat. So I
found when I saw the you know, behind the tea box,

(11:01):
I was like, it's gonna be a crazy life. Because
obviously he stayed up all night and whatever he's passed out,
he was still in that tent right when he was
a sleep in the tent coach, probably three o'clock, four
o'clock in the afternoon, So he had a crazy night.
It took me back to Corona Cove. When I went
to Corona Cove's gonna be a Netflix movie about this
one of these days. And I'm telling you, guys, I'm

(11:24):
telling you guys, I didn't make any contact with people
while I was at Corona Cove. Obviously it is I
got I coached. The data suggests otherwise that test that
you made contact probably grocery store. The first guy to
get Corona from a raft up the atus. He was
a person you touched. Coach. People get diseased monkeys all

(11:45):
the time. You know. It's funny, is Eddie is the
first person history to get the Corona from no contact.
So me and my wife were in kayaks and we're
in the bay. So we go in the bay or whatever,
and there's an abandoned yacht like just in the middle
of the bay, and I'm like, it's beautiful, like it's rusted,
it's stuck in the sand. You know, it's it's literally abandoned.

(12:07):
It's abandoned. No one's there. It's like sideways and it's
all it's it's it's picturesque. But did you get stuck
or the people out of it? It got stuck, Coach,
like years ago, but right now it got oh yes,
like that did you see that? Yes? I did, Coach,
don't branch off. Continue This yacht got stuck years ago
and they couldn't move it. So it's just an abandoned
ship in the middle of the bay. But how is

(12:28):
it still beautiful? It's it's just picturesque coaches like pirates
that now you're talking. So I'm like, hey, honey, like
that'd be a cool picture. Like I get on the boat,
you know, and like it looks like we're in the
middle of nowhere and it would be a cool picture.
So here, I give her my camera. I go up
to the boat and literally about to get on the
boat and some dude like gets out of the little

(12:49):
hole in the middle and like start stretching. He's got
no shirt on. And I'm like, oh, I jumped back
in the kayak and start going. When when we were
talking about Corona Cove, we never got this story. Coach.
I was like, holy crap, somebody lives in that abandoned
little boat. And I mean, and I started to think,

(13:09):
like again, crazy life. He lives on the abandoned boat.
I don't even know how he gets off it. There
wasn't any kind of like I was in a kayak.
I don't know if he has a little boat in
it or what. But so do you think this was
the original owner lost his money and so he stuck
on the boat. No, I think this is a guy
that goes out at night, goes to the bars and

(13:31):
just like goes to restaurants and chills. He's like, I'm
gonna go back to my boat and go to sleep.
It just seemed weird, like people, you didn't interview the guy.
You didn't say yo, man, Coach, I got the hell
wasn't thinking about bits for the show because I'm talking
about from my own personal satisfaction, Like, Yo, can I
come aboard? Coach? I don't do it if it's not
a bit. I got out of there as quick as

(13:51):
I could. Coach. I think he heard me, and my
wife heard your wife, and he was like, okay, you
got a nooner already. He's like that blonde voicing. He
didn't see you. He saw a bikini babe in the car.
He was like, all I've talked to for the last
ten years is Wilson. Get over here? Is that a mermaid?

(14:14):
But that dude lives on the water straight home, That's
what I'm saying. Homeboy over here lives in a tent
behind the tea box of number eight. And in Corona Cove,
there's a dude an abandoned boat. Do never never go
into an abandoned boat, Coach, there could be a homeless
you're living in there. That's the moral of the story.
But that dude isn't seeing a lot of foot traffic,
so it's tough for him to make money. The guys

(14:34):
that I drive by, there's a stop late, so every
five minutes they have ten cars different full of people,
either generous or not. Typically they're generous. These guys are
making decent cash. But boat boy, it's I'm curious how
he makes a living. I have no idea. Coachy just
lives there. He probably, I'm telling you. I think he
probably has a job and stuff, and he maybe a

(14:56):
bartender at night or whatever. But he just lives on
the boat. I don't know how he gets a How
is the boat from shore? You said sand? You know
it's in the middle of the water, Coach, I mean
it probably. Were you sure that it was a band,
I would say about three yards from the shore so
he could swim it. But every night of his life
he sleeps wet like crap. I gotta go swimming again

(15:19):
to get back in. But if you bring a chitcome,
She's gotta swim swim the canal. Did you all know
that when I worked for the news. This is my
first job ever. When I was eighteen years old and
working for the news in McCallen, Texas, it must be
nice not to have a job to your eighteen jeez.
Well no, my dad made me work for his company
before that. Coach, let me get the news sounder for you.

(15:40):
The huge. The News had an idea to put do
an experiment like they need. They're like, why don't we
find someone to dress like a homeless dude, will follow
them with cameras, put a mic on him and see
how much he can collect. I was like, I'm in,
I'll be the home as it was basically, so I
grew a beard and grew my hair, and I like

(16:01):
woke up that morning. I got like mechanic clothes, you know,
like the shirt with a name on it or whatever
that I got from like a US stud. Let me
tell you, So this is your first job. So you're
thinking this is badass, Like I'm such a cool reporter
and I'm gonna be on the news. Like yeah, as
the experiment, and so I play. I wake up that morning,
I play with my dog and like rub my back

(16:21):
on dog poop and everything, just to kind of coach,
I'm gonna play. I'm gonna play a character. I'm gonna
play a real character. I don't know if I was
rubbing the poop. That's a little too far, Coach. I
want to go up to a car. I want to
go up to a car, and I want to smell
like dogs was ready. That was just my point, dude.
And I mean, Eddie's on that corner and a car
pulls up and it's freaking you know, Mr Galberth, Eddie,

(16:47):
It's like Eddie, it's Mr Galberth, seventh grade math teacher. Man,
get in your car, freak out. It's like Eddie, you know,
you were so good at math. I thought you could
have got thinking I'm somebody else. Mr Calvert and he's like,
Mr cab that's I mean, no, sir, I don't know
who you are. He's like, you literally just gotta be

(17:08):
in my class. What happened? You want to know how
much I made boys nine dollars an eleven dollars an hour.
That's pretty good. Eleven dollars an hour in you know,
it's crazy about that influx. It's straight cash, Coach. I
see my guys at Jackson Hewitt Coach after they do
their job, quarters and pennies. The cat guy he used

(17:32):
his turbo tax although I did forget at one point
that I was because again I was like eighteen years old.
At one point you forgot you were really not homeless.
You started you got a cardboard box, there was a hottie.
There's a hottie. And I was like, what's so, I'm
going down the line of cars, right, and I forget that.
I'm like smell like dogs and like hair messed up
and everything mudd all over my face. And I go

(17:53):
up to this girl, I'm like, how's it going. She
couldn't have rolled her window fast enough and like locked
all the day. And it's not like back and back
then it was crank windows. You can hear that all
the doors lock and everything. And this isn't being insensitive.
We just found out how much they make, which that
was very interesting to learn. And also that I mean,

(18:14):
when construction comes to town, it sucks, but it's like
they gotta then move relocate somewhere else. But that's the
downside of not, you know, being a vagabond. I think
there's more than that's not the only downside. There's a
lot of coach talking about losing all their loved ones coach,
the rain, the weather, being addicted to drugs. The thing
that really gets to me when it whenever you know,

(18:36):
you see when I'm the reason this is top of mind.
I see him twice a day, So I mean, do
you know them by name? Coach? Do you stop giving
them close? If I have a shirt that doesn't fit perfectly,
I'm like, hey, guys, brand new, just didn't fit great,
here you go, and they're like, thanks, brother, I appreciate that.
That's that's how I got Losers. I thought he went
to shop store Losers dot com, but no, he got

(18:57):
it from Ray because it didn't fit. I'm perfectly coach.
If I go by the bluff and I'm giving money
to do with a coach shirt, I want to be kissed.
But no, when it rains, that's when you're like, damn, man,
I would I wouldn't mind scooping one of these guys up,
bringing back to the crib, giving him a sandwich. But no, no,
do that, please do that? And I want to see
your wife when you do that. That not that that

(19:19):
he could Robbie now I want to see video of
your wife's reaction when Hey, how's it going, sister? Hey,
you got my mom? Do you want to know what
my mom did? She's living the gas station right and
she pulls up to the stoplight. There's a homeless woman

(19:39):
standing there, and my mom's like, I think I recognize
that lady. She rolls down the window and the lady
used to work at the gas station that my mom
always goes to. It. So my mom starts talking to me, Yeah,
you know, something's happen. Now, I'm living over here with
my boyfriend or husband, I don't know, and they have
a tent. So my mom goes home and gets my dad.

(20:00):
They go back and pick the people up, take them
to their house and cook them dinner, and let them
shower in their shower. It's beautiful, and then dropped them
back off. And did they rob him or anything. It
was just a story. It's an incredible story. But your
mom previously knew him, but just she worked at the

(20:22):
gas station. She said hi to her when she bought
her cigarettes. You want to go light, Hey, you want
to know how nice that was because I've had that
experience before the shower situation me and my brother were
doing this lumber job. Quick story, and you guys are
in the shower together. No, but the place we were
staying at it was basically a flophouse and there was
no running water. Basically, guy didn't fail to mention that

(20:42):
you weren't gonna have anything to wash your face with
or body. So anyways, we go. I go, hey, bro,
we're both eighteen first, you know, logging job outside of
the mill, and I go hey, and I go, hey,
we're not at the mill. We gotta find some shower stuff.
And so we go door to door. We went to
five houses. What do you think are success rate was

(21:02):
of people that said that we could take a shower?
If you were to five, I would say, because the
last house you went to is the one that said yes. No,
zero out of five. Well what if I mean there
could have been one that said yes, but I'm about
to leave. What is the ratio of people that said yes,
coming to my home take a shower? Out of guys,
The answer is zero, not one person to eighteen year

(21:27):
old kids. We both had nice hair, we did have
maybe wood chips all over us that not one of
them allowed us to go into We go, hey, we've
been working on the job all day. Our water is
not working. Can we please take a quick shower and
then we'll be on our way. Sounds like a scam, Yeah,
it sounds the problem. It sounds like those kids right
now when I go to if I go to the
grocery store and they're walking around, they're trying to sell
stuff just in the walking up to your car in

(21:51):
not not speakers. Hey man, we're trying to raise money
for our basketball team. We're trying to get in new uniforms.
I'm like, no, Like, it's just a laminated piece of
white paper. Like there's no, it's all Derek, there's no Like,
why don't you just help them for whatever they want?
They want to bins beer? No, No, it's not about BC.
You just wanted to be honest with you, your real
heartfelt feeling. You like the guy that's honest with a

(22:11):
cardboard sign that says I'm not gonna I'm not lying.
I don't want one. Why need things like that? There's
the best one ever I ever saw was it was
in Austin. It was on Riverside Drive and at five
and the guy had it. He said, Hey, my liver
is a terrorist, help me kill it. I need beer decent.

(22:32):
I mean, that's hilarious. I got one on my Instagram.
I I went, I went to the score store, got
a six pack and drove back and gave it. So
what about the kids the store? Though? But the kids?
What that is? To me? If I'm correct, I might
be rolling on this. It's a scam. So they don't
get any of the money. They have to give it
to someone best one. I saw this guy had a

(22:53):
sign and said, too ugly to strip, too honest to steal,
just wanted some money. I think I've seen that guy
couch not so you're saying he uses the sign year
after year. That's like the one I saw when Eddie
and I were going to play golf, like three weeks ago.
Right when I'm turning into the subdivision where the golf
course is, there's a lady standing there and she's got
a sign and everything, and I'm like, okay, I get

(23:16):
done with a round of golf two and a half
miles away over by the airport there she is. Then like,
so someone drove her over there? Hic? I mean, do
you ever fall for the lunch? Finish his story about
a parking that it's a scam. They're trying to it's
my aim. I no, no, I honestly believe the kids,

(23:36):
but I just don't have cash on no, no, no,
there's no way. It's the same kids year after here
look like kids, and yes they're younger, like four teams.
You think maybe it's their dad putting them up to
I think it's like one of those scams where there's
someone that there's a boss that gets all the money
and they get like a dollar. They don't really get

(23:57):
there's no basketball team, there's nothing for uniform, but they
sell that candy. The person up top gets a hundred
dollars and they get two bucks in that candy. You know,
how to see if that's fake or not. You bring
a basketball with you and throw it to him and say,
on one, let's go lose. I get by candy, you lose.
That's a good idea. So do you guys even mess
with those kinds of things to find out if they're real?

(24:18):
Or you just say no? I just say no, right,
because it's a lot of effort, Like you know the
moms that come up with a baby and everything in
the parking lot that come in and say like our
car broke down to like and and sometimes I want
to go all right, well, let's go to your car
and I help you push it. And there's like are
you saying you do it? Or no, I've never done it,
But I mean I feel like if I do that,
then they'll just be like no, no, no, no, we're good.

(24:39):
We're good, We're good. The worst whatever I did right
over here a Chipotle, you know, right here by the
station coach that matter five Chipotle? Does it? Does? It?
Really does? On the library, the one that's right next
to the one right here goes the chippoodle coach, the
one on West End, the one and first maybe maybe
it doesn't make a damn bit of difference, doesn't Which

(25:00):
one was it, Eddie? The one by the subway. Yeah? Yeah.
So I'm I'm going into subway or going into chole
and it's like like, hey man, can you help me
jump my car. I'm like, yeah, yeah, I'll be right
back out. Let me grab my lunch. I'll jump you,
no problem. I come out. Dud's nowhere to be found,
Like okay, so I can go to get in my

(25:21):

back over there and jump it. I'm like, okay, get
in my car. We start driving. Excuse me, yeah, okay, dude,
you were just making saying me that I'm crazy for
bringing a guy. So he's not in the rain. He
took my pants off. He needed him, and he starts
telling me, you know, yeah, just keep going what I'm like,

(26:06):
and you're and you're following in the directions. Okay, all
ride on seventeen alright, and just so you know, they're
headed to Memphis. I'm driving. I was driving a loaner car,
so we had the ignition start thing. So I'm thinking,
and the fobs in my passage jump out. Yes, So
I'm thinking, Okay, the next stoplight, you're jumping out, I'm

(26:27):
jumping out. I'm running like I'm just going. Wait, so
you lose the vehicle, but it won't be able to
go anywhere. The guys like, where are you going? Because
I have the key fobs, so he won't be able
to go anywhere, okay, And then so I'm going the
way he goes and I'm like, so where and he's like, oh, yeah, yeah,
just keep going a little bit farther, keep going a

(26:49):
little bit farther. What do you mean farther? A little
bit farther? Are you talking like that? I'm like, I'm like,
hey man, you said it was just a block of
white man just a little bit. And he's like, you
guys are fighting at this point, and he's like, oh yeah,
like take a left here, what the and I'm left
is totally and I'm like, what do you mean? I left? Right, left,

(27:12):
right left. I've never heard of directions like that before.
I'm getting a divorce. Get out of my cart vehicle.
I mean, we're a couple of miles from Chapole, like
we've been going, and he's just saying things like oh yeah,
go left here. So fun. This guy's not even looking
at the road. He's like, hey, sure, because didn't know

(27:33):
right here exactly right because then he gets a phone call,
a phone call, and he's like, oh, I'm almost there,
and I'm like, fake phone call, No, no, that was
did you see did you feel the phone ring? Hey,
that was his boys. And did you lure that skinny
guy in the Chile parking lot? Yeah? I am thinking
he has lured me to a spot and they're about
to get me. At this point, how many lefts have

(27:54):
you taken? How many rights have you take? Taken? Three left?
One right? If you took one more left, you to
run into your originals? Three? Okay, he's making a circle.
That's just made a loop and saw another one. He
gets off the phone. I immediately pulled over and said,
hey man, I can't go any farther go and what

(28:15):
do you say? What do you mean? He's like, no, no,
man's just right up here. I was like, hey man,
I gotta go, you gotta go, and he gets that.
He goes, we'll give me a couple of bucks then,
and I was like, no, what, you're right, here's five bucks.
Get the hell out of him. Five dollars because no, no, no,
go to five dollars, probably for the bus ride to
get him back to where he started. I opened the
console and there was a five and two ones. Give

(28:35):
me that five. Oh. He told me to give you
the five, and I was like, you know what, you're right,
you deserve the five. Get the hell out of here,
Like I mean, it was probably one of the dumbest things.
I never told that story on the Big Show. It
was terrifying. Is a great story that you're that crazy.
I mean, because of now all the new stuff and

(28:56):
and news and stuff, you realize you probably shouldn't pick
somebody up. But twenty years ago it was normal to
pick somebody up. And lunch just told a story from
a year ago of whendn't he put somebody up? So
get this is college, right two thousand and two, two
thousand Sam Houston State University, people wearing high sock short
shorts continue. And I've got to be honest, Harry Bird

(29:19):
was the biggest thing in the NBA. It was Jordan's
still at North Carolina. My dad was very, very, uh
worried about things a lot like the very didn't trust
a lot of people, like this guy is trying to
scam you, Like that's don't fall for that. That's kind
of how I was raised, you know. So as my
first time being outside of the house, and I got
my brother's truck. That's what I took to college because

(29:39):
I didn't have my own car at that point, so
my brother gave me his truck so I can have
for a for about a year. So I'm driving this
four f one fifty, right, my girls with me. I
go to the gas Now wife, before your wife. I
thought we were getting a glimpse into a past that
was before I was married, but still my alright, So
I go to the gas station Diamond Shamrock, and I

(30:01):
go pull up and I put some gas in the
car or whatever. I'm walking inside the store and there's
a guy in the front like, hey buddy, Hey buddy,
and he just seems weird, like overly friendly. Hey man,
real quick, real quick. I don't want to take too
much of your time, but real quickly. I'm a truck
driver and my truck broke down about half a mile
down that way. Really man, I just need a few

(30:23):
bucks or whatever, or you know, you can help me
out and get some gas and we'll siphon it from
your truck or whatever and put it into my the
rig or whatever. And I'm like, hey, I'm like you're
kind of just kind of stressing me out. So I'm like,
I don't know, dude, Like, man, he's like, hem I
siphing too much gas. He's a little bit high. So
I felt like he kept moving when he was talking

(30:46):
to me, like moving in the direction where I was
no longer looking at my truck. Mr. Still your girl.
So I'm thinking, in my mind, I'm like, is this
dude like trying to do something in my car while
he's you gotta about the woman in the car. He's
worried about his car. He kept looking over my shoulder
at the blode It was almost look at my eyes. Guys.

(31:07):
It was almost like, yeah, man, my truck is over
there stuck and I need a gas. So I'm thinking, like,
this dude's trying to distract me from something going on
in my car. Right, So I go in the store,
I get whatever I need to come back out. The
guy's gone, and I'm like, okay, it's weird. So I
go take the gas pump out, put the key in

(31:28):
the ignition. My truck won't start. I started looking for
the dude. In my mind it clicked, this guy did
something in my car, and now he's gone. So I
get out of the car. I looked around the corner
of the truck. The story is already calm. I looked
around the store. There's the dude on the other side

(31:49):
by the ice by the ice box. I go up
to him, like, I push him. Dude, I don't know
what got I don't know what got into me. Boys,
I've never pushed anyone in my life. I pushed this
dude and I said, did your wife see this? Yeah,
she's watching. She's in the Pastor say I'm like, what
did you do to my car? And he goes, hey, man,
I don't know what you're talking about. I saw you,

(32:11):
dude while I was talking to you, you were doing
something in my car. What the did you do to
my car? And the guy's like, whoa man? Whoa chill man, Like,
stop pushing him. A lot older than you. This guy's
probably in his fifties. Okay, whoa man. I promised I
didn't do any in my car. I'm like, you better
not of And I walked in my car, tried it again.

(32:33):
Car started up cool, thank guess, and I drove up.
I like, oh, okay, hey, you know what I thought
this was going on? Oh? I thought he was gonna
say he did this. I thought I ward shot hey,
so then like you pushed the guy, you didn't even
do coach. Weeks later, I was talking to my brother

(32:55):
and I'm like, he's like, dude, how's the truck doing.
I'm like, truck's great, man. He's like, hey, sometimes you
gotta wig of that ignition, man, because the starter coaching
you push you guys like a beat your asse the starter.
Sometimes it just doesn't work. Man. I'm like, dude, it's crazy.
You tell me that almost almost got killed. I'm picturing

(33:16):
some back country town in Texas and you pushing a
guy up against a Texico gas You asked my wife
that's story. She'll be like she would tell you exactly
how it went out. Oh my god, dude, that is
how long were you dating when this happen. Probably a year,
maybe a little lesson. She was just like that was

(33:36):
really weird but funny. At the same time, I'm like,
I cannot really have pushed that dude. He could have
killed me. He was twice my size, which the truck's
never run better. My brother's like, hey, man, careful the truck.
It's got a bad starter on that thing. And the
guy's still back there looking for somebody to help him.
The poor guy. Really, He's like, no, man, I'm just
not a gas Help me out the guy the guy

(34:00):
was actually couldn't find him at first because he's inside
getting you beer. He had a twelve pack of beer
for you. He's like, I was gonna buy him underage beer. Gosh,
that was crazy guys walking out with the beer. And
he goes on to shoves that. What you do to
my Oh? What car? Man? I told him just like
that too. Think I thought he had a buddy over there.

(34:21):
My mind was thinking he had a buddy over there
taking gas out of my car while instead of pumping
mind you know, he had moved it to his car
or something. Man, I don't know what I was thinking.
I just thought he had done something to my car
while I was looking the other direction. That definitely is
an out of body experience, though with the push, I've
never done that couch in my life a stranger. It
was survivor mode. My wife was like, oh my god,

(34:42):
this is pushing that strange. That's the opposite survivor. What
is it? I'm trying to get killed mode? Like survivor
run another direction man the trucker. Dude, can you see
Eddie Scrawn? He asked, this good old truck and I
was skinnier than I am today. The dimond. I'd love

(35:06):
to get some card. There was a freaking uh sage
brush blowing around. Oh god, anyway anyone have been a
viral video nowadays because we want to bust it out
there first. Oh my god, dude, oh god. So what's

(35:28):
going on in sports match play? Hey, oh, Mata, did
you go to match? Are you going? No? So Billy
looked into it. They're only allowing two thousand fans. So
each ticket is anybody I will do the drum roll
from the big ticket. It's a spot on. It is
one thousand dollars. Billy said to get in, and I

(35:49):
obviously go, Billy, that's that's you kind of money. Aren't
you going? And he Billy's like, I don't pay for
sporting events. If it ain't free, I ain't going. Does
he get free tickets all the time? They have so
many partners and this and that anything they usually want
to go to. They got an open relationship or what businesses? Yeah?
I mean, oh you said many partners, So I just no, no, no,

(36:09):
like business coach. Have you've been in the city for
twenty years, imagine the thirty years five. Imagine the connections
you have after thirty five years. I played that course before.
It's awesome. I think which one is always it? The
one you drive? Hey, do you change over the bridge
and I do? Like this where the boats pull up

(36:30):
and they can watch. That's pretty cool. They do that
somewhere else too. Is that pebble? No, not any of
the ones that are close to the water. Yeah. What
they should do is over at the Masters, they should
allow kayakers to be in the little ponds or whatever.
There's one guy fishing, Sorry, took the wrong stream. Can
you imagine I take the kayak? Well, no, no, crown,

(36:54):
how badass would that? Or TPC You're in the island
green with a little kayak. Now, that would be awesome
if you could, like like McCovey cove. Everybody's out there
and there the kayaks trying to get the ball. That
was only when bonds on steroids. They don't do it
as heavily anymore, I understand, but that would be fun
to be out there in your kind. They don't hit
bombs out there anymore. Steroids it's coach. That was like

(37:16):
you turned on the TV and you're watching a Giants game,
you're guaranteed to see a ball going the bay. Coach
Bonds would hit one, not just I mean he cleared
everything into the bay. The kayaks had to paddle out
to go get that. So now, no, it's not that
I don't think that many people are out there, not
every game. They're not out there just going. Man, I
hope I get a ball to the I hope I
get a ball. If you happen to be in McCovey Cove,
you're happen to be a McCovey Cove. Now Gmail, we

(37:40):
are the store losers at gmail dot com. Coaches. I
listened to the show Down here in Australia. Never miss
an episode. Hey down, Undawn, shrimp on the bottom, Patrick
read did it that a boy? Good job? Patrick Goodwin
against Christian A busy kutt Ope. And this is a
pre record. Never mind that was yesterday. Boys, over to you,
I need your advice last year here last year I

(38:01):
start start the letter over he's from. I listened to
the show Down here in Australia, never miss an episode. Back,
I go eat their steak every Friday night. I need
your advice. Last year, I separated from my wife. We
have a two year old, so we keep so we
keep in contact about him, which is fine. But now
I'm sorry, coach, I cannot concentrate on your email. This

(38:22):
dude yelling. I separated from my wife last year. We
still keep in contact because we have a two year
old that we talked about, but we have started someone
watching the two years I hope you care for it
is the two year old with one of them? Yes, okay,
because they just said we talked about it. Well, that's
how they stay in communication. Did he get an apartment?

(38:42):
I mean, what happened? I don't know where he lives there.
But now we have started seeing other people. But the
problem is I've started seeing her cousin and she has
started seeing someone who works in the same company as me,
and we had to work fairly closely. I don't have
a problem with a guy. I feel a bit sorry
for him because he has to deal with my ex wife.

(39:03):
But how do I deal with the awkwardness at work?
Also does the merch ship to Australia. I got to
give me some cheers. Coaches. Alright, coach, what's his name?
Do you say his name? His name is down under,
down under. Listen here, we're gonna make a sweatshirt in
a month. It's gonna have divorce written on it. Get
the button ready, coach, I've got them all. Which one
the are you thinking? Like? Are there no other girls

(39:27):
or dudes in Australia like you? Do you get? You
break up or divorce, divorce, divorced with this girl? So
you start dating her cousin and then she starts dating
your co worker. I mean, do you live in a
small town, very small for some branch to be incestuous.
That's small. Maybe the cousin, maybe it's like a third coach, No, no, no,

(39:51):
no no, And maybe the cousin is not close to
her No college, she doesn't matter, Coach. If I dated
your cousin, you would know. Well, let's be real, check
your date and they got ins are all about the
same age. It makes sense. And he was a family
reunions with her. She was probably at the wedding or
bumping ugly you know, you know, you hear these stories
of people get a divorce and then they get remarried again.

(40:13):
Do you feel you're talking about those stories? On the
Big Show. Well, and in life. In life, people get remarried.
That's a cross reference, coach, I mean, coach in life,
so it happens. So do you think that at some point,
if this dude keeps dating her cousin that doesn't work out,
then maybe he'll start dating her sister and then that
won't work out. Eventually they'll just get back together again

(40:35):
because he seems like I feel sorry for the guy
because he has to put up with my ex wife.
So it still feels like he doesn't really like his
ex wife very much. My question is is if he
marries the cousin, does the ex wife come to the wedding.
Of course, it's in the family award. Well, I mean,
and and the kids involved too, So, I mean, the
kid's gonna want to be part of the wedding, and
then mom's gonna have to be there too, because you're

(40:56):
getting married. Who's gonna watch the kid? Mom's gonna have
to go to the wedding. I mean, you're telling me
there ain't one more fish in the ocean. I've made
the ocean reference because I think that's fantastic, Coach, the ocean.
There are lots of fish in the ocean coach. What
about the awkwardness with the dude at work who is
now dating his ex wife and does the dude like
rub it in all the time? Like, man, look at

(41:18):
these girls boobs last night? Me and your ex were
you know what I mean? The guys over there like
whatever his coworkers over there bank. Okay, dude, what do
you make in banging sounds? What are you trying to
reference my ex wife? No, dude, I'm just writing on
the table. What are you talking about? Dude, that's our job.
We hammer nails. I'm building this wall, man, Like you

(41:40):
know how we have to put it up the front
of the house. I get it. You're hammering like you're
hammering it to the wall. No, dude, I'm just working
like I'm hammering the wall up. I'm putting the wall. Sorry, So,
how do you deal with awkwardness? I I honestly just
think he needs to get out of the family tree. Like,
but what about the guy at work? I think get
a new job something. This is the craziest story ever. Like, you,

(42:04):
you get a divorce, and sometimes the best thing about
getting a divorce is just getting away from anyone that
knows that person right, Yeah, but you go dipping back
in the family tree. That's weird. And then the guys
that the ink reference you mixed up. The two continue
dipping in the in and then family tree and up
the trees, tanking up whatever. But the awkwardness at work,

(42:25):
I mean, I just think if you don't care, if
you are not, it's not a big deal. I don't
think it should be awkward. I think it's more awkward
between the chicks usually than the two dudes. Listen, you
want to end the awkwardness at work. You go up
to homing and you go, hey, sloppy, second, you little
you're telling me lunch box that if you got a divorce,
race starts, Race starts dating your wife, and then he's

(42:48):
going at work, boys you care about you use the restroom? Ah,
no reason, you're feeling a little awkward, right, what would
you think you'd hate it? Well, you'd hate it. And
then Ray comes in. It's like, oh god, we do
a show together. That these guys are in cubicles. Dude,
cube life. You can get away. They don't have a

(43:10):
daily meeting. Also depends on who was the instigator of
the divorce. So I'm the one that instigated the divorce,
then I don't think it's as awkward. If the chicks
the one that instigated divorce, then I could be awkward
with Ray, like, dang man, my wife broke broke up
with me for him, and if that's what this guy's
going through, that sucks. Hey, coach, I should have known
that Bakersfield, you're looking at my wife and not the

(43:31):
Margarita bidger? Is there any way, coach? Does it cost
money to call Australia? No, Coach, it's free. It is free,
like on a cell phone? Is him? I think we
can call on our phone. It's not free of the
company will pay for it. Okay, that's part of the pocket.
I feel like we need more more details. I like

(43:52):
this email, but I feel like if we can get
this on the phone and be like we should call him,
I would like that. I can't call him right now.
I don't know now obviously, send him a reply and say, hey,
we want to talk to you more about this. What
is he living up? And then interesting stuff after. I
want to talk Gold Coast and surfing, Foster's Beer and Marocodile. Dundee.
You kind of what's different you think of crocodile hunter.

(44:17):
Crocodile hunters, dude, and listen. It's sorry to branch off.
But we went to an aquarium and there were sting
rays and Beazer was pet and stingrays, and I said, besier,
there stingless. Okay, coach, but that's the damn thing that
killed Steve. He was in the ocean, Coach, messing with
stingrays that still have their barb in them, the ones

(44:37):
that you can touch their barbedlousky, Are you serious? Yes,
I never knew that, Coach, of all you want to
find that it's barblous, pick it up with your hands,
see what happens. I don't want to find out. I
didn't know that. I didn't understand. I never knew that
was the no way they would let two year olds
put their hands in with a I was wondering. I
was sitting there to daydream and playing on my phone

(44:59):
on my went to go look at the stingers. Singers, singers, Coach,
there's little kids. They're patting them on the grass, and
you shut the whole exhibit down. Every I dove in,
I started beating nut. I started beating nut out of
a sting. Right, dude, I saw one that right before

(45:20):
I got married, Like I'm talking hours before I got married.
I went snorkily in Hawaii and I saw the stingray
as big as a car. Oh, it was the biggest
thing I ever seen in my life, at the bottom
of the ocean, probably about twenty thirty ft down, huge, beautiful.
It was black with white dots on it, so it

(45:41):
could have been the end of you. I mean, I
didn't try to go touch it. Couch like crocodile hunter? Man,
is he a crocodile? What was? He went? Crocodile shark
and the thing that got him with that's what he was,
the crocodile hunter. And now his daughter does stuff with animals, right, Yeah,
Ben to Irwin, I think she's pregnant. I've been on
she's married. Uh. Funny thing that happened in the Astros

(46:03):
spring training game. Did you see this? No, but we
did get a text from Chris from LoCash. He says
he's been going to a bunch of spring games. Guys,
you all should come. You got a place to stay.
Can we not get some insight on a bet? Good gosh, well,
what do you want that? He wanted? Just Texas During
the game and you go to a live event tweet us. Hey, guys,
look into this for a live bet. You have an
advantage by going to live venues, by seeing the warm ups.

(46:26):
And I'll hang up and listen what I'm telling you.
One bet you don't want to make is spring training games.
Oh god, they don't care inter squad games. The one
top I bet on the spring training game. I swear
they put the bat boy into pitch. I'm like, good god,
here we go. It was batting practice. You can't bet

(46:49):
on this game. Like the announcers like, oh, yeah, today,
the pitcher is just gonna practice throwing the ball sixty.
I'm like, what's He's only practicing his changeup. That's the
dumbest thing I've heard of. Here we go. I went
to a Mets uh spring training you know, like I
don't know, seven years ago or something, and that we
were standing at a hotel where I guess everyone else
would standing too, and the bar was hopping that night.

(47:11):
We had to wake up super early next day because
that so I didn't party much, but we had to
wake up early because we're gonna go to the Mets
training camp and meet some people whatever. And I mean dude,
I'm talking about nine o'clock, ten o'clock. I mean it
was hopping people just yelling girls out there, and and
I remember this one dude who's just like I have
the lateiest man. I make out with you, make out

(47:35):
with you, and like, dangn these dudes are hardcore. Next day,
I mean, I show up to the training camp, you know,
and one of the first guys I see is that dude.
I mean he's dead sober, he's in uniform and like
he's like all focused and like, dude, I swear I
saw you like six hours ago. And his name was
I really don't know who he was. No, I really

(48:00):
don't know who he was. I mean it was just
bizarre though. I'm like, dude, I swear I saw you
less than six hours ago, like just going eight. That's awesome.
The times I hit the best, I was a little hungover,
uh not not not to listen to that. Kids, when
you played college ball coach post like high school, summer
league post, dude, it was no. I mean it was

(48:20):
summer league like junior senior year coach. But I mean
I swear if you had a little hang to you
the next morning, sometimes the ball just went off the
battle and you take it out of you take it
out of on the ball. Speaking about ball and bat astros,
beat reporter Channeler Room says, a member of the ballpark
security team at Roger Dean Stadium, which is the Marlin
spring training wearing an official polo with security and big

(48:43):
layer letters on the back, just spent Alex Bregman's entire
plate appearance banging a trash can before every pitch. Was
he really a security guy or now he just dressed
like that? He said he was Bregman struck out looking.
Come on, that's but hopefully it only lasted for a minute,
because probably where is that then? Florida h Dude, are

(49:07):
freaking jokes about the trash cans were years ago? It
seems like a different lifetime. Two seasons. Wow, not last
season the trash can jokes. Well, but last year there
was a season, right, there was no fans. So they're
gonna get it this year from the fans. But are
they going full fans? I don't know. No, you never

(49:27):
want to go full fans. I mean coaches be real
full fans at a baseball game. I mean you're talking anyway, true,
I mean regular season games. They shouldn't cap off capacity
at baseball games because they're never full anyway, right, Yeah,
I guess. I mean, could you watch them on TV?
It's like, for sure temper cent people there on a

(49:50):
regular season. Yeah, yeah, you're right now. The Sore Losers
Nations Facebook page, they put up a thing, what do
you all want to know? Ask any code your question
in the comments. Let's see if they either reply to
you or maybe get some of the questions read on
the podcast. So you guys talk about golf, but I
never hear any scores. What is considered a good round
of golf? Breaking eighty or ninety, drinking as much as possible.

(50:13):
Losers Nation wants to know. That's from Jordan's White Lunch.
If I break ninety, like if I get into the eighties, boom,
that's great. That is a great round of golf for me.
And I mean if I there's days that I can
shoot eight eight, eight six, and then there's days I
shoot a hundred and five. Do you drink when you play? No,
because then I get more piste off. Listen, boys, I'll

(50:33):
booze it up. I usually keep scoring about the thirteenth hole,
and then I lose interest, the score gets a little
too high, and uh then I'm just pounding some bruise
the last couple. I've never shot in the seventies, that's
my goal. I've shot eighty one, I think is my
best round. If you're on the seventies, you'd be playing
on the weekends. Seventy nine coaches, that's all. I want
a seventy nine, And I've been so close a few times,

(50:54):
but I just never gotten there. But I mean, for me,
regular round probably eighty eight, eighties seven average. Yeah, lately
it's been the nineties. But drinking rarely, rarely, maybe on
a Saturday, just because you get so tired and well,
for me, I get tired and tired, and we got
to work the next day and now I gotta I
gotta walker. So mus car, no coaches, and it's we

(51:17):
just haven't had the chance to. Yeah, but I played
with people that were't going to walk. And what how's
the cart? How does it look? The cart is beautiful.
I have the kids seen it? Oh yeah, we said it.
I put it together. The kids have been pushing around
the house great. So they're using it as a laundry
basket instead of a golf you're talking. You're talking like amazing.
They're driving one kid into it and pushing them down

(51:38):
the hill. You can already see it. The kids are
playing grab bass with the cart that we bought for
three I've already customized it. I got a little thing
that you put on the side for your phone, and
then there's a little thing that that holds your umbrella.
If it rains, it sticks right up and covers. Medn't
need it today, but I started looking for accessories. Boys.
There's a chair that I'm looking into that you just
put on the side of it and you can sit

(51:59):
down and rest. No way, that's actually pretty cool. How
fretting cool is that? It's a seat, a cushion seat coach.
We're making fun of it. We look over at Eddie's
got an umbrella. He's got a little tropical drink A
cooler chilling dude, you make it sound better than the
golf car. There are all these little compartments like and
and it doesn't tell you what they are, but there's like, oh,

(52:19):
that looks like a cool bottle holder coach. You put it,
it fits perfectly, a like a plastic water bottle snaps
right there. There are these little knobs that you can
put my my my range finder. Put it right there.
There's little slots for tease, a little thing for balls. Coach,
I'm I love it. What about the drinks one cup holder?
Tell me you can hold a twelver one cup holder.

(52:39):
There is an accessory of a cooler that can go underneath,
underneath the seat, underneath his umbrella holder, underneath, ranger, I
come with you. Make sure that cooler spaces available. You're laughing. Well,
when you're teeing off and I sit down and chill
and drink a beer, you're gonna be like, wow, that's
pretty cool. And it's raining. I got an umbrella over
my head, coach, and I was it dicks getting dicks.
When I was trying to get it, I was trying

(53:01):
to act like it was from my bother in law
or something. I kind of felt like we're not cart people, right,
like we're like bros and oh yeah, you know family,
And was telling me that he went he was picking
it out and the guy. He's asking the guy all
questions like all right, so if I'm going up a hill,
like do I and he's like taking test runs around.
Then he realized his name for him. He's like, what
am I doing, dude? Just give me that one. It's

(53:21):
the first time I've shot that intensely for another dude.
And it was something that I would actually buy on
my own, And at one point I thought I was
buying it for myself, and I was like, oh my gosh,
snap back to reality. This is for Eddie. Why does
it matter of it as a couple or just get
the damn thing. God, I love it. The guy was like, yeah,
the four wheel is a little bit tougher to turn
three wheels a lot better at rotaps better. I'm like, oh,

(53:41):
that's amazing. Who cares. Just get it for Eddie now,
I know, now, I know. Way he says that because
the three wheels you can just lift it up a
little bit and kind of steer it. That that's what
the guy at Dick said. Yeah, he was all over it. Man,
We're at fifty minutes fifty LB's voice. Be a Cinderella Champ?

(54:03):
Would you rather be a Cinderella Champ or a number
one seed champ? What the number one seed? Oh? A
champ because you're a champion. I mean it feels better,
I guess being a Cinderella because no one expected exactly
get to be like you haters. Yeah, I think it's
a Cinderella champ because but don't people turn on the
one all the time, Like, don't people like just be like, well,

(54:26):
screw Michigan, screwgan Zag. They won't even worth be number
one if they get in a tight game, the crowd
starts cheering for the underdog. But I would rather be
the Cinderella champ because you came out of nowhere. If
you're the number one seed and you win, you're expected
to win. So it's like, oh cool, you want shut up.
You guys were like repeating each other. So you guys

(54:47):
are so dumb, that is really When did you guy?
Oh that was from I forgot to give this you
got to close out the choa. I thought this email
was still from the guy from Australia. No, we went
to them. We're on the Facebook page. Where did you guys?
When did you guys get into gambling? And how long
have you been gambling on sports? It seems so complicated.

(55:09):
From Christina Abata Christina, I was raised gambling my dad.
That's all he did. My dad hates sports, he doesn't
the only reason he watched it was to gamble, and
that was our connection. I love sports, he was gambling.
We connected that way. It's easy. I got into it
when I was like nine, ten, eleven years old because
of how much money you no teeth. Keith, who was
my brother's baseball coach, then my baseball coach, he was

(55:32):
a big gambler. Negative for is an algebra. Kid, it's
a betting line. And he would call this line to
gamble and they'd be like password, and he'd say, kid,
what's a parlay? It's a quiz. And he would teach
us what parlays were. He taught me what teasers were.
He taught it all to me when I was eleven

(55:54):
years old, and that's when I started getting interested in gambling.
And the kid got you in. Oh absolutely, you you're
somewhat like late in the game or gambling, right. Yeah, well,
I mean it originated honestly in football. Back probably when
I was fifth sixth grade. My dad had pools as
the lumber mill, and I remember he brought it home

(56:15):
and he said, the only way that's gonna be fun
is if I let the kids pick it, because you know,
as a dad, you blame it on yourself. Oh, we're losing, Well,
it'll be fun if you involve the kids. So he
only let me and my brother and sister picked the games.
We'd go the entire season and would win like one
or two in the weekends that we wanted. Was the
coolest thing. But I remember my mom saying, oh, they're
too young, they shouldn't be picking games, and we'd win.

(56:36):
I don't know if my dad gave us that money,
but we win hundreds of dollars. Wouldn't give you the cash, dude.
When we went whatever you have to go a fourteen
and two or something on a Sunday, we would get
hundreds of dollars. But yeah, that's when it started. But
me actually putting my own money was freshman year of college.
A guy introduced me to a site called bow Dog
and then it went defunct and turned into Bovada Bovada. Yeah, yeah,

(57:00):
but no teeth keeps with I mean those special times,
maybe like, kid, here's twenty dollars. You got twenty dollars,
you can do a three game parlay and if you lose,
I'm gonna kick your ass. And that was back in
the day. When you're eleven years old, you don't think
any underdog can ever win? Like you don't. You only
pick favors, Spurs and Kansas. Give me that milk, Millie Man.

(57:24):
Last when we got I got into gambling. And that's
how I understand gambling so much. Okay, would you consider
bringing on your significant others for a podcast? I know
Eddie's wife keeps a low profile, but it would be
amazing to hear from them. From Kimberly Zuba, I don't care,
but I don't think she would do it. My wife
wouldn't do it like I don't. I don't hide my
wife like if she wanted to do it, and she

(57:46):
could do it in a heartbeat, but she just doesn't
want to. My wife gets. My wife gets so she
does not like doing embarrassing things. She gets uncomfortable. She
is very like, oh my gosh, oh my gosh. Like
even when I just do a print call, she gets
on comfortable listening to it. But that they are even
I get uncomfortable listen to it, Like that's what that's
why they're funny, right, And that's why where can you

(58:07):
hear those prank calls? Excuse me? Where can you show
thank you? Well? I thought there was I thought at
one point we talked about there being. He goes, he
does mail back mail dot com. But yeah, so my
wife is very she gets uncomfortable very easily, and so

(58:28):
she is out. She I feel like Bay would start
her own podcast today. She would. But at the same time,
I go, hey, would you mind talking about Golden Tate?
And she goes, yes, I would, that'd be fun. I go,
it's Women's Day, would you please do that? Then push
comes to shove and she goes, you know what, I
don't really feel like talking about going. I'm like, I
don't care so what. She yes, but it wouldn't be
the easiest. But she has friends with all their wives,

(58:49):
so I could see it maybe once in a blue moon.
There is a possibility to keep it to a slim chance.
One last one before we go home for the weekend.
What's your favorite position? If you could only watch one
sport and had to give up all the others, which
would you pick? And easy one overs in football? Give
me golf. It's the easiest to bet on and I'll

(59:09):
hang up and listen. That's what you would watch for
the rest of your life, have to watch it four
days for all day long. I love watching golfman. Now, man,
this is a tough not come on, because March Madness
is the best thing ever. That's the tournament though that's
not in college basketball. Could you would you take the
March Madness all year round? No? What what if the

(59:33):
tournament ended every month and it started over April Madness?
Can I just say, thank god we didn't do the
coin flip mad guys? Are you excited for October Madness? Dude?
That coin flip madness wore me. How would you're telling
me how to do videos for every single one? Dude?
He was trying to get me to be energetic for Oral,

(59:54):
Roberts and Moorhead. But okay, here we go. It's the
only teams on top of mine. Here we go. I
don't know if that's on top. After the boom, after
the fifty of the video, my kids are like enough,
like enough, put your headphones on, or something like, we
don't want to hear that crap anymore. Dobby, there had
to have been away. We could have done that easier.
We would take up entire podcast flipping coins. Every time

(01:00:18):
we flipped it, the coin would roll underneath the computer
or something. It was so fun. We just drug it
out too long until I finished. I freaking almost won
the whole thing. So you love March madness, but it's
not basketball. Man, I just don't know what. I don't
know what I would pick, because I don't know that
I could do without college basketball. I don't think I

(01:00:38):
could do without March madness. Football is great? Why is
it great? Though? Because you get it once a week
and because a fantasy? Are you watching the football that's
on right now? That college football? What even is that?
What is on right? I see it on the gambling sites?
What is it? A coach, I'm too just weirded out
by it at being in the spring to even click

(01:00:59):
on it. What is it? Well, it's just college football
that didn't play in the fall. They played in the spring,
said his account towards anything, or they're just playing the game.
What do you mean? Does it count? Yeah, the record
is whatever it is, But that was for last year.
Well so the record goes backwards. No, no, No, it's
their record this year. This is their two thousand whatever.

(01:01:19):
Well they have to they'll have to two one seasons
because they'll play now and then they'll play in the fall.
Mr just he loves football, but he doesn't watch any
of this. I mean that explains have you watched any
of that? Coach? I see it on my app. I'll
be looking for an NBA score and I'll see ten
college football scores and I'm like, I don't know if
my phone screwed up or what the hell that is.

(01:01:40):
And then i see on the Sports Center app They'll
do a highlight of Dion Sanders and I'm like, is
his team playing right now? They all I thought it
was high and his was high school. No, he's he's
at Jackson's State. Yeah, Jacksonville State. And he told his
team the defense, he said defense. If you get an
interception for a touchdown, he goes, you'd you the prime time.

(01:02:01):
He goes, you do my dance and one and he goes,
if we get a penalty, that's on me, that's on me.
One of the big guys gets a touchdown and returns,
Rady turns it for a touchdown, he does the primetime dance,
and Dion was going crazy on the sidelines. You know
Tim played at jack State? You playing football? Yeah? Hell
yeah he did. Coach, he's the size of a max.
He played college foot had no idea kicked his ass

(01:02:23):
he said, it's brutal. God, that's breaking news. Remember that
seven foot guy played basketball that works in sales. Well,
pits is six ft something. He didn't play football. He
lost a lot of weight, there's a lot of softness.
Oh my buddy, b J. He's six six and people
will be at the bar. And that's what I'm saying.

(01:02:45):
People go, dude, what tell me what your position is
in basketball? Dude never played a lick. I'm like, dang,
all that height gone to waste. Scuba smiling about something?
What are's smiling about? Scuba? He just got a all right,
eddie Final four picks? Uh, final four going into the weekend. Yeah,
who's gonna be all right? I think Baylor is gonna

(01:03:07):
hang on. I think uh, I think I gotta look
at the bracket, but I think, um, who's Gonzaga? Plane
play that. Gonzaga plays Creighton and then they'll play the winner.
If they win, they play the winner of Alabama, and
I think Alabama will take Gonzaga out. So I have

(01:03:30):
Florida State, Alabama, Baylor, and then on the other side Syracuse, Syracuse,
m alright, I think it's gonna be Baylor Loyola. It's
gonna be Gonzaga in Florida State. Do you think Loyola

(01:03:51):
goes to the final four. I think Loyola goes to
the final four with Mustache Kid, I mean Mustache home
depot working dude. Absolutely, I think he's that good. Right, right?
We got your final four Texas, Gonzaga, Baylor, Syracuse and Bama.
Yeah wait wait wait wait wait hold. Your lock of
the weekend could be Oregon State getting six and a half.

(01:04:13):
You just have one different mean ray? Yeah, okay, what
did you just say? Right? Your lock of the weekend
could be Florida's two. There's two obvious locks. Oregon State
is gonna roll Loyola and Syracuse is gonna double roll Houston.
Those are two week bets this weekend. If you want
to win easy money, Syracuse will beat Houston. I don't

(01:04:35):
think it'll be a blowout or anything. What's the line
pulling it up? He said? Oregon State is getting six
and a half. That's an I mean Houston's favorite on
that one, right, Yeah for sure? But like, I bet
you buy three? Why does sports play put the n
I T games? Houston? Syracuse gets six points? Are you
kidding me? Right? Now? That's a lock and then also

(01:04:56):
Oregon State getting six and a half, the two dogs.
I mean they could win those outright on Sunday. What
that is? Uh, Saturday, Saturday, it's midday and after in
a night game, you're getting easy money. Mattenee's. Yeah, you'll
have your money by six at night on Saturday. A
little dark horse though, Villanova get out? Are you crazy?
I mean, have you seen have you seen anyone come

(01:05:17):
close to him? The last two games? They're not that good,
but it's the Big East is the week East coach,
No team the two teams they played, I haven't even
gotten close to him. Come on, I know they didn't
look spectacular in the season, coach, but they're winning games
right now and they are hot. I'll tell you loyal
Chicago Ferry dust All. That Cinderella stuff has been fun.
But Mother Tree Sat can't play on the courts. Watch

(01:05:40):
the Nova boys, you guys, get beat or whatever her
name is, mother Mary. What do you thinking? What would
you do? I thought Nova was playing Gonzaga, but that's crazy.
Creating sucks. They both blue great color is not the
same school in different school. Watch Nova boys, all right,

(01:06:00):
have a great weekend, guys and Eddie, No go with
pushing people at the gas station. Great way to tie
it all in. And when you see my wife, gonna
ask him. I'm gonna ask coach saw her last night? Coach, Coach, coach,
my fault. All right, take it back. Both of you
hit it. You didn't hit the Take it back, no, Coach,
I just tied it all in. She did. She said,

(01:06:22):

an hour just all fail and fall flat. Serious to
take them back? Take what back? What did you say?
