Ray is looking for someone from college who owes him $2,000 after bailing on the lease and an enforcer was calling Ray everyday with threats of physical harm if he didn't pay. We breakdown the Clay Travis vs WNBA drama and we call for the WNBA to have a Hard Knocks reality show just like the NFL.

Speaker 1 (00:01):
We are exactly one hundred and thirty seven and a
half days away from the Sore Losers Convention in Nashville, Tennessee,
home of the two thousand and thirty Super Bowl. The
Sore Losers Convention is presented by Freeland Chevroley and Richard Jump.
My boy there just posted a photo of a sick car,
(00:24):
and I posted on his picture, let's take that to
the beach. So I don't know if he was thought
I was kidding or not, but it might have been
a Camaro top down, ninety degrees out. Wow, yeah, a
new Camaro.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
I like, because they're coming back with the Camaro. Or
is the Camaro done?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Coach? I I'm not a car guy. I don't know either.
I just clicking clack. Well.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
I know that Garrett still has his Camaro from nineteen
ninety nine, No, not ninety nine, maybe ninety seven. When
we turned sixteen, he got a Camaro. It sat in
his now for years years, and he finally got it
worked on and got it running again. But he's just like, dude,
I gotta get rid of it. But whenever we wanted
(01:09):
to play ping pong, we'd had to push the Camaro
out to the street, so we could unfold the ping
pong table in his garage beer pong.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Now nobody plays per ping pong anymore.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
No, No, we're at the age where we play ping
pong instead of beer pong.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Beer pong can still play with kids. Played it with Boomer,
that's true. They do water. Well.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Yeah, well his kid is what probably ten now, dang,
that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
So he likes the ping pong.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
And then his wife we would have to move boxes
and boxes of crap because she's a hoarder.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
No, not a horder. What does she do like she
shares groceries.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
No, she does cheerleading, like she choreographs dances, and she
sells them their uniforms, kanky. So she has all different
sample of uniforms in the garage, and so it was
just everywhere and can you get these uniforms out of here, Hugh.
But it was funny when the girls would get hammered,
(02:10):
they would go find uniforms that fit and they would
do cheerleading routines.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
But you're like a drunk uncle. Anyways, the Camaro two
on the hood, four on the floor. Maybe we fake
Richard out two on the hood, four on the floor.
What the hell? Does that mean I know nothing about
cort That is great? Ray, So how many horsepower? In particular?
So we fake a video with Richard just to go
ride in the vehicle. Maybe, oh, because Richard said, Hey,
(02:37):
we gotta get lunchbox out here.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Let me tell you I'm gonna drive in a Camaro
like Garrett his seat. I mean, it feels like your
butt is on the ground, like it is so low.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Well, you know, big people can't get in those A
lot of those cars. Oh correct, That's why my dad
hasked to have a truck.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
They can't get those knees down there. I mean I
remember Garrett just getting in that thing in high school,
and I mean it felt like when you go over
a speed bump, It felt like our butt was going
to hit the speed bump. It was so weird and
you could barely see over the dashboard. I was like,
your parents are crazy for letting you have this car.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
It's just blank Q money. Ray, It's called Q money.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
I wouldn't say it was that. I don't know how
he got that Camaro, but I do remember one time
when we were speeding on Mopak and a cop pulled out.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Whoo and what a Garrett do dumped out the alcohol.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Uh no, he hit the gas, hit the flyover on
to twenty eighty three.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Cop never got us. Melcony's unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
I was like, dude, your nuts, but that Camaro could move.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Cop just gave up on it.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Yeah, once you hit that flyover. I mean because the
cop was facing you know what I mean, the wrong direction.
I had to pull out. He hit that flyover, gone,
I mean, no chance.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Yeah. You always wonder the way the cops facing, are
they gonna maneuver and try to pull me over? Because
I mean, if they're facing the other side of traffic,
you're good, right, because I gunned by those all the time.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Right, I think they have to be sideways or facing
the direction you're going. If they're facing like head on,
they have to whip a UI, get in the traffic
and come find you. That seems like a very bad maneuver.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
But I'm saying if they're facing the entire other, opposite
lane side of traffic, you're totally good.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Oh yeah, if there butt is to you, they're not
even they're going for the other side of the traffic.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Because on sixty five all blow past them at about
seventy five, I mean probably two miles over the speed
limit and just give them like deuces. There's no way
they're getting you facing that way.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
You know where they're really bad is between here and Memphis.
There are always five thousand police officers sitting there catching
speeders as you're rolling into Memphis.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
I hate to reference the pandemic, but during the pandemic
heading toward Memphis because I used I lived in the
West Side. Yeah, but I didn't go all the way
to Memphis, correct. But during then, they never sat or
patrolled the West Side. I was going eighty five every
day after work. Never did I see a cop waiting
(05:13):
inside the city limits doing a traffic zone. That's a
great question.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
What did the police do during the pandemic because there
was very few people on the road because no one
was supposed to leave their house, no one was going
to work. So did they just sit in their car
all day and hang out that.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
I think there was a lot of them. Maybe got
laid off wow for the time being, and they then
got rehired, But it was just because maybe they just decided, Okay, guys,
this is just such a bad time. We don't also,
but do we want to pull somebody over and then
have that possible face to face. Covid didn't even think
about that. I don't know, but I'm just saying and this.
So then it carried on for a couple of years
(05:52):
until we moved out of there in twenty twenty three.
There was never cops just zerom you get out of work.
He never never, never even saw one, much less got
pulled over.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Also, if you got pulled over during the pandemic, which
I never did, if you guys could fill me in,
did the cop wear a mask when he came up
to your car over was a I mean the conversation
would be very muffled, want and no, get out of
your car? What are you a food cor I didn't
know you said get out of your car? Man, I
(06:27):
couldn't hear your mask.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Romo Fields, what is that Andy? Now? The more the
more I look at those pictures, Romo's hammered. Right.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
If you look at him, he looks disheveled. He looks
like he's had a few drinks.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Well, they said the open container, and.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Then now there's an open container. The facts came out
a little later.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Well, and then also Graham and Grandpa were made up.
They're in heaven.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
They're in heaven. Yea, hopefully they're in heaven.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Yeah. It's just compared to the other DUI videos that
are floating around there at the NBC, We're like, wow,
they were hammered. That's embarrassing. This one. He held his
alcohol well, but doesn't mean you should be driving correct.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
And you make one hundred and eighty million dollars, how
do you not? How do you not have a driver?
I just I will never. I can't understand it. How
these people are so filthy rich and they don't have drivers. Dude,
it would be so amazing to have a driver.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Dude. Just get a way, mo. And also why you
should always listen to our show you go, Hey, do
you think he'll face any suspension? I was like, no,
definitely not that very day. An hour later, Tony Romo suspended,
well or won't be opening up the broadcast. Really, he's
kinda he's on Lee leave. There was a preseason, but
the article broke right after we posted the podcast.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Hey hey, Lebron, he's just waiting to make his decision.
Podcast posts Lebron to Philadelphia.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Okay, Like, really, I go, what's the most outlandish team
Lebron could go to and I go Pelicans. We didn't
the team we didn't name the seventy six ers. They
might be really good. Yeah, they got those young kids
that are quick. Maxi Edgecombe Jalen Brown. Edgecombe is inefficiency wise.
I told you during March Madness, when I wasn't betting,
I watched him. He was in the forty level, which
(08:06):
is unheard of it, which means he didn't miss a
lot of shots. He was getting rebounds, assists and when
he never turned the ball over. Edgecombe is very efficient.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
And then if Joel Embiid can stay healthy for twenty games,
I mean, they might be really freaking good.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
We like doing that. But then along come the thunder coach.
Let's start the show. Spurs.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Did you say Spurs because we are the thunders dads,
we are their daddies.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
I look back at it. I mean, it was a
good series between y'all four to two or something. It
was seven games, Oh it was, yeah, it was four
to three.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Yeah, we won game seven in their house.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
And there one guy just wasn't right all year. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
J Dubb, that's fine, that's fine. Wimby won right all year.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Okay, he was feeling himself so much. He opens up
the NBA Finals with a three from the top of
the key. That's how much Wimby was feeling.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
See tearon Fox. Wasn't himself all year. He was hurting
the playoffs man, and we still were able to rise
above it.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
I will tell you this, you guys, this isn't an
old podcast. Today is the August fifth. But Wemby, when
he opened up with a three pointer, I was like,
who is this Spurs team? I haven't watched him all year,
but they may be the greatest team I've ever watched.
Then he proceeded to disappear for eleven minutes. But when
you open the game like that, I was like, this
team is an all NBA team? What are we doing?
(09:26):
Who is this guy?
Speaker 2 (09:27):
And then the fourth quarter came and it was like,
oh my gosh, here we go again.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Let me just jump off this h boy. Oh that's rough.
We're gonna do it live we oh the one, two, three?
Sore losers? What up? Everybody?
Speaker 2 (09:44):
I am lunchbox. I know the most about sports, so
I give you the sports facts, my sports opinions because
I'm pretty much a sports genius, y'all.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
It s isn't it from the north as you previously heard,
I was from the west side. I was also from
downtown lower Broadway. We lived right on Broadway, the street
you party on, we lived on. It didn't get a
lot of coverage though, I mean, there's a lot of
stories that need to be told about that. But anyways,
I'm in the country now, two acres. It's mode. We
got the monkey grass all over the place. I went
and trimmed it the other day. We got two kids
(10:13):
at Vandy. They are just eggs. They still need to
be fertilized. Not yet deciding if I'm gonna do that
or not. But there is that Trump tax credit that
goes into effect. It is an effect all the way
up until twenty twenty eight. So you have a child,
you can have five hundred from our iHeart, you can
have a thousand from government. You can make fifteen hundred
just for having a kid. And then I mean, what
(10:33):
do they say, what if you put it in foster care?
Do I still get the fifteen hundred.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
I think you still get the fifteen hundred.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Right, it's a workaround.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
If you give it up for an adoption, fifteen hundred
your way over.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
To you, man, That's all I got. Justin's on a
dinghy young gun Lake. Haven't heard from him since Fantasy
talk more to come from him, but we are gonna
have a team together. Coach over to you and not
back over to me. You got a lot to say.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
I do have a lot to say because our old
studio mate, man Travis. I don't know what his deal is, like,
I have no idea what his beef is with the WNBA,
Like I don't know. I don't watch the WNBA. I
don't know what's going on. I don't follow Clay Travis.
(11:15):
He hasn't been in the studio in about three years,
so I have not seen him. The restaurant that I
ran into him that one time and I was like,
what up, Clay, thanks for sharing the studio. It closed down.
That restaurant is no longer there, so I don't know
where he eats. So I don't know how to run
into him on a regular basis. But I don't know
(11:38):
why he's mad at the WNBA. But he tweeted out
that he will put up ten million of his own
dollars and have the Las Vegas Aces the WNBA champions
play a high school boys state championship team of his
picking winner gets ten million.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
I mean, I don't know why he hates the WNBA,
but I love this. You know why he does because
he hates women. No, it's political. It's that whole Sophie
Cunningham thing about trans shouldn't be able to play in
the WNBA. That's why he's doing it.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Yes, and his point is, oh man, that that he
no trans people should be able to play in the WNBA.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
And he's on the side of Sophie Cunningham, who says,
for because of the little girls, she doesn't want trans
in the WNBA. But now there's this I think man overseas. Okay,
I saw that. Who's unreal? No, No, and Clay's like, hey,
if we support trans, why don't we bring her to
the NBA. So he's just going off on it all. Okay.
(12:47):
See I didn't follow all that.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
I just followed the Hey, I'll put up ten million
of my own dollars, and I was like, holy crap.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Would that be a good Who do you think wins
the high school basketball team? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:01):
The high school basketball team would win. Yeah, because you
have to think about like we there was that guy,
uh that we had on the pod the one time
he went to University Kansas and he was a high
school basketball player. He didn't play in college. He was
like a team manager for the women's team, and that's
(13:21):
who they practiced against. He was just good in inner
murals and they went and got him. So that just
tells me. I think just the athleticism of the high
school boys, because they're gonna be dunking, They're gonna be
able to dunk, They're gonna be so I think they
win the game.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
But that girl that we got from the trade of
the arms dealer, she can dunk. Griner.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
I haven't seen her dunk in a long time.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Right, one of the worst trades in American history.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
No, I just don't know much about I don't watch
the w NBA. But I just assume that a high
school boys, because I figure freshman boys going to college,
like I imagine a high school there five star recruits
are better than the women.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
I just maybe I'm wrong, And I think his point
with that is that men are better than women inherently,
and so that his point is trans wouldn't be comp
shouldn't be allowed to play in the WNBA because of
their biological mail makerup.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
So they would have an unfair advantage, and so that's
why I just saw the tweet and I was like,
what is going on? Also, how does he have so
much freaking money? Hey, I got ten extra million dollars
laying around that I can just throw on the line.
No problem house sales.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
I know he's moved around so that every time you're
making a couple million on that syndicated show. Yeah, I
believe he sold. Maybe he didn't, or he did OutKick
portions of it.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Yeah, I think I saw a story about he sold it,
but he's still part of it.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Yeah, I mean that could be easily twenty thirty million day.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
But his kid goes to private school. Yeah, I mean
that's one hundred thousand right there.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
You don't know, and this is dead series. You don't
really realize how people have all their money, but then
you realize. So for him, it's not family money, but
it's he's also a lawyer, so not practicing, right, not practicing.
But because of that, he's written books that are popular.
But I mean, there do you become a millionaire on that?
Who knows? But he's also done the radio show type
(15:26):
stuff and then the books and no movies, but syndication
selling a company that stuff can add up house sales.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
Yeah, but yeah, to have ten million dollars to throw
around like that, that'd be pretty freaking cool. But a
great tweet. It'll never happen. The WNBA would never do
it because the chance of them losing would be absolutely
devastating for their league. You would have to fold and
close up shop. And the fact that he just keeps
doing it and doing it, and hey, where's that I
(15:57):
got ten million, let's go. It's never gonna happen. But
I thought it was hilarious. Didn't realize it was all
over this Trans controversy of Sophie Cunningham and all this.
And then I saw the Minnesota coach wearing a shirt
supporting Trans. I mean, the WNBA, they all hate each other.
It's amazing.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
Well, and the Sophie Cunningham, I hope I'm saying the
right girl she got I don't know anything. She got
elbowed in the face and they didn't even call a foul.
They called a fowl on her, yeah, because maybe the
ref was against her.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
Or maybe she was in their zone. I don't know.
And then I saw one girl I don't know what
team they were on. She was dating her teammate and
then she posted, oh she cheated on me with these
two other girls in the WNBA, And I'm like, ude,
this it is like a soap opera, like they honest
to god, you know how they have hard knocks for
(16:48):
the NFL. They should have a hard knox for the WNBA.
All the drama that goes on, it's pretty fascinating.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
You know who has hard knocks? Tell me I believe
Seattle Seahawks. Seattle Seahawks haven't watched it. I saw a
clip that it was kind of cringe but also interesting.
Because HBO does everything interesting. They could do our show
and make us interesting.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Yeah, because our podcast sucks, but they would be able
to somehow turn it into good.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
The coach goes, hey, cameras are here. You know why
I did this? Because their coach he's kind of a
weirder ish doc. Yeah, he's kind of weird. It guess
quirky if you will. Maybe we're all weird. But he goes,
why are the cameras here? Make us uncomfortable, make us
be ourselves. Maybe it's a little weird. I like it. Everybody,
(17:36):
you start to be focused on things get better? How
can I do this better? Cameras, You're gonna get better.
So I just like them here cuz I don't know,
just kind of weird. So I like them here.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
And then I found it weird that they're doing the
Super Bowl Champions. Usually it's a terrible team. Yeah, Usually
it's like a team that won three games and I
don't understand the like how they get to that team.
But to have this super Bowl Champs pretty freaking cool.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Props. But I also haven't watched Hard Knocks in about
five years. I need to watch the dance before I
watch Hard Knocks. That's the last dance.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Hey, that is pandemic time, dude, that is back from
the pandemics, bringing.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
It full circle. Great job.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
The fact that you haven't watched that, Well, what's funny
is I started watching what did I start watching the
USA soccer one leading up.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
To the World Cup.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I got halfway through the first episode, then the World
Cup started and I never went back.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
A lot of these things you're not going back to.
It's hard. There's so many there's so.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Much there's new stuff coming out every day, and there's
just not enough time in the day.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
That's why unless it's a friend that really recommends me something,
or it's something my niche. Dude, I'm not gonna watch
some alien bang itself if the guy it works, like, Hey,
it's a really good documentary about aliens, aliens having sex.
You know what, That's probably something I'm never gonna watch.
But I get you love it. You love of these
(19:00):
aliens hooking up. That's not probably for me. So even
though all of America's watching these aliens all bang each other,
my name's Ben and I and in it, my name
is Paul.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
It's up to y'all and we'll be right back. So
here's the thing. I don't have time to watch anything
because my kids all of a sudden want to have
movie night. I feel like every single night partying. Well
we're not partying right now, but we're just resting. But
we're getting ready for school. We are less than a
week away from the start of school, so we got
(19:30):
to start kind of getting back in a routine, allegedly.
And then last night they're like, can we watch a movie?
And so we google funny movies for elementary school children
hangover and this one called Chicken Run is what it's
we're supposed to be funny. So we watch it and
it wasn't that funny, Like my kids were like, Dad,
(19:51):
I thought this was what was supposed to be funny.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
But who's saying it's funny. Did kids review it the internet?
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
We just googled funny movies for elementary kids and Chicken
Run was one of the top ones. And it's like
they're trying to escape from the chicken farm, like they're
they're laying eggs and when they stop laying eggs, one
girl didn't lay eggs for three days and the owner
took her in the shed and axed her.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
What is it anime? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (20:21):
It is, Well, it's like clay they're like Claymation, but
it's like a cartoon like it's yes.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Claymation is still making it or is it older now
it's new? Man, you're telling me there's a new Claymation movie.
When you have AI, you can't google. Ah, dang it.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
I was gonna see when Chicken Run came out.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
But it's a newer movie. It's within I mean, it
has to be within the last ten years. But my
my thing was they showed that that they show and
grab the chicken by the freaking head, take her into
the little barn. They have the axe there, and then
you hear clock clock.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
They don't show. But my kids, like Dade, I thought.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
This was supposed to be funny, and I'm like, what
the hell is this?
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Good reviews America.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
It was not that funny, Like there was maybe two
funny parts out of the whole movie. It was just
kind of like, oh man, this is okay, that's funny,
But my kids didn't laugh that much.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
That's what I'm saying. You need reviews from people in house.
Your wife, you trust her.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
She's never seen Chicken Run's never seen Chicken Run.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
It's a good forty nine ers documentary, batter of the box.
You need reviews from those type of people. If Billy
tells me, Baser, she knows what I like. You wouldn't
like this. But everybody's telling me it's awesome. No, no, no,
you wouldn't like it. Baser knows me. So you need
to have like a parent you trust a kid at school.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Yeah, I get that, and I understand what you're saying.
I'm just saying, we have gone We've been doing a
lot of movies, So like, we watched Mighty Ducks, we
watched Little Giants, we watched.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Lady Bugs.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
We've watched a lot of things. So we're trying to
come up with new ones.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
So we google.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
We watched The Iron Giant. You're going back, have we
get The Iron Giant was really old. I didn't know
how old it was by googled good movies and that
was it. But Chicken Run it just wasn't funny. And
so I was just like, man, we were brushing teeth
last night and the middle kids like, Dad, I thought
that was supposed to be funny.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
He goes.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
I only laughed like twice. I'm like, yeah, he goes,
and what he goes? Well, what did they do to
that one chicken? Did they really? And I'm like, yeah, man,
that's that's kind of how it happens.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Man, That's how we get chicken nuggets, you know, your
eggs in the morning.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Yeah, yeah, that's what I'm saying. So I haven't had
time to watch anything like I haven't time to do
haven't had time to do research for fantasy football?
Speaker 1 (22:50):
How much research have you done? Got the NUDI mag
from Circa. They gave me a free one oh yeah,
And so then I started thinking I wasn't gonna get
the Daily Room deposit back. Yeah, got it back. Good
circuit just leaves you fantasy magazines for free. So got
a fifteen dollars fantasy magazine. I already hit up justin
what we're gonna be ended up doing. He's already naming
Ohio State players that he wants Carnell take. Gotta get him.
(23:12):
Stop stop, he's right here. Yeah, but I mean, Titans
football is what it is. They're gonna put up eighteen
points a game. I've seen it for five straight years,
and this is a new regime. Dude.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
They got Robert Sola, they got cam Ward, they got they.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
Still have Ridley. Yeah, and they got that Deshaun and
Wandell Okay, I don't know who that is, guy for
the Giants, Wandell Robinson. Oh, Wandell Robinson got it, yep,
stuff like that. So but yeah, but yeah, we've talked
lightly about fantasy. But you still got another a whole
other month. They're still in camp.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
No, I understand that, but we are. I mean, we
have it up right now. It's sored Losers dot com.
People are signing up. People are are registering to get
in the drawing for next Monday to have their name
drawn and the most exclusive fantasy football league there is.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
Do we need to discovery where we can look into
people's funds to make sure that they have the money
that if they were drawn.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Nope, not worried about it. If they sign up. They
are responsible adults. They know how to have the funny,
They know what they need to do. What if we
ask if they got a paw on their VCR, go
paw on that VCR?
Speaker 1 (24:17):
What if we ask them for just a screen grab
of an account, whether it be a savings account, a
checking account, a stock account, fidelity of four to one k,
just a proof of money. We just need to see
that you can afford the two hundred dollars. Everybody starts
flexing their one hundred thousands. Everybody's like, oh, look at me,
look at me, look at this bank account. This is
(24:39):
my ra roth that one couple drops a ten million
dollars account.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
On them, Yeah, I mean that would be kind of awkward.
They start, Hey, everybody goes to Facebook screen shot in
their accounts and putting it on there.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Somebody screenshots that it's negative. I remember those days who
knew a checking account could go negative. It can with
account bounces, Yeah, I really can.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
It's really it's weird how that happens. And you know
what's weird is I used to want to feel like
a baller, So like when I would get checks from
people or whatever, I would save them and so I
had a big stack to go to the bank with
like four or five checks. That way, I could put
a lot of money at one time. The only problem
is when you do that, you're letting. You're sitting there
(25:25):
and you're losing money and losing money and pay them.
Like my roommates in college, I'd pay the rent and
they would pay me, and so I didn't have enough
money in the count, but I only had two checks,
so I'd be negative in my account.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
The worst they hit you, it actually got pop for
that wells Fargo, Oh, because they were giving people too
many fees. I think at some points if you got
like an overdraft and then another overdrafted up it, so
you could be you could be seventy five hundred dollars
an overdraft if you over go yeah, because it wasn't oh,
it was a twenty five dollars hit, and then the
second offense. It was like a fifty dollars hit, but
(25:58):
they got popped for that. They're in trouble that you
got money back on that one. Well that is not cool. Yeah,
and so but you could call them and they would
wave one or two. And I remember distinctly, living downtown
Lower Broadway calling the lady and I'll never forget. She's
probably seventy five years old. She logs into the account
and it's like negative one hundred and twenty five dollars,
and her exact words were, honey, honey, oh my gosh,
(26:25):
let me take a look at this. What if you done?
And so then she's explained, obviously I knew all this.
She's like, what do you want our protection? I don't
know something, so it'll never overdraft or something. She goes,
and obviously when you overdraft, you know it's gonna overdraft.
But I was playing dumb, like, oh my gosh, I
(26:45):
had no warning. How did I know it was at zero?
And she's like, oh yes, She's like, I'm gonna be
able to wave one of these, and she goes, but
we need to put this in place where there's a
buffer you can I guess you could maybe give her
two hundred dollars and it would be attached to the
savings account, so it never overdraft. Oh I was smart,
but I was playing dumb. And I'm like, oh, I don't.
I like, how was I supposed to know it was
at zero? And she's like, honey, it's okay. Oh my gosh, okay,
(27:09):
we got you back to zero. Okay, but but never
let this happen again. She was actually concerned for me.
She ended up waving a lot of those overdrafts.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
So that's very nice of her. I like when they
do that. I've done that with the credit card. Like
the bill is due on the twentieth and I wake
up on the twenty first. I'm like, oh, crap, forgot
to pay it. And if you don't pay it, you know,
they charge you a fee or whatever, the percentage, whatever
it is.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
I don't know how it works.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
And I call them up and I'm like, uh, I'm sorry, man,
but for some reason, my payment didn't go through. I
just noticed that I logged in yesterday and your website,
I guess it wasn't working. Oh dude, we have I
don't show that our website was down. And I'm like, well,
ma'am I was on there last night trying to pay it,
and it was not working. It was not allowing me
(27:56):
to make a payment, so I'm worried that I'm gonna
get charged. Well, let me take a look here. Okay,
did you want to pay that right now? Yeah, that
would be great. Okay, then I'll go ahead and take
that fee off because if our website's not working, you're
not able to make a payment. That's not your fault.
And I'm like, yeah, thank you so much. I just
don't know what. I'm not sure if the whole website.
(28:18):
Maybe my internet was not working, but for some reason
the website was whenever I'd go click make a payment,
it wouldn't take me to the next screen.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
I'll put that in the notes, that the website.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
Was not working for you, and maybe you know there's
a bug or something and they'll look into them.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
But we'll wave that fee this time.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
Really, I just forgot.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
I just absolutely forgotten to pay the bill, and I
just lie to them, and it's just it's what you do.
I think they don't really want to charge you the fee,
and so if you just call in and ask, it's
like all right, cool.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
Well, either it's our electricity or water. I just told
Baser the other day, I still don't know what I pay.
It's called citizen portal. I don't even know what it is.
It auto logs in. It's one of the two. But
their grace period is two weeks. If you don't pay it,
it's it shut off. So the water electricity. Oh so
there's been times it's fallen where we're on vacation in Jamaica. WHOA.
(29:11):
So when you get when you get home, say Saturday Sunday,
it's closed. You have to pay the office in a
five day window. So what if you're tied up at
work one day or two days, then you have three
days to get this paid for or you're gonna get
shut off. Guys, can we extend that to maybe a month.
That's a little aggressive with shutting everything off if somebody
(29:36):
doesn't do it within two weeks. Yeah, I remember.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
There was nights we'd come home from Balcony's Little League,
you know, after a called baseball games. We'd walk in
the house, flip the switch, flip the switch, and then
we'd have to get in the car and drive to
the twenty four hour pay little slot window to get
the electricity back on. Those were the days, man, Those.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
Were the That's usually when you realize the roommates aren't
as good with money or don't make as much as
they say they do. When I lived after Costa Rica,
a quick one minute story, Oh I'm not going anywhere.
Lived with Jennifer Daspit Fine. Was saying her name. She
actually screwed me and we got evicted and she owes
me like two thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
But question, what was she hot?
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Yes, but she's also changed her name since then, but
she owed me two thousand dollars. But no, she's with
a dude now. They get married and stuff. Oh okay, so
two thousand or not even the two thousand we get
back from Costa Rica. We all decide to live together.
He's cool, awesome guy, Diesel just living with him. I
was working at Grondi Communications. I come home one day
(30:41):
and they're just freaking out in the house and it
was like kind of a summer day, so you couldn't
really tell that the power was out, and so then
I started looking at stuff and I'm like, wow, the
fridge is off. Huh. You go up to my room
and I'm like, oh, my room light isn't working. That's weird.
Maybe the bull burnout and don't she blonde? Yeah huh?
And I go, hey, guys, is they weren't gonna tell me.
I go, guys, is the power out? And they're freaking
(31:03):
out and they're like, yeah, it's so weird. We talked
to the electricity place. We told them there was gonna
be a delay. Well, they don't shut down the electricity
unless you are back pay for over a month. So
these fools had been telling me, oh, yeah, we're making
so much money at the club. They worked like two
nights a week, you know, and then they burn it
all on partying and stuff. But they're like, we make
so much money downtown sixth Street. Come to find out
(31:27):
they really didn't even make that much crap. They couldn't
even afford the electric bill. And I'm like, well, what's
been happening with the money that I've been paying you guys?
And they'd probably just been using it for partying. So
then I had, since I had a full time job,
I had to front the money for the electricity to
get it put back on, which when they hard shut
it off, they don't just clip with a switch. It
takes about a whole day for them to roll a
truck and come and turn electricity on. So then that
(31:49):
night I'm like, okay, so got you guys were making
like a thousand a night when you worked Sixth Street. Oh,
you only work two nights a week and you party
all the time and don't really have that much ambition.
That makes sense, actually not making the craploads of money
you claimed to be making.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
I no, no, no, they're making it, but they're just
giving it right back. That's the cool thing about when
you work in a bar, you make a thousand dollars
and you spend eight hundred that night that weekend partying,
you're down to two hundred.
Speaker 1 (32:12):
But I didn't realize when I was at work all
day all they did was sleep every single day. Heck yeah.
And they literally only worked at the bars on Thursday
and Friday, and they just partied all the other days
that I thought they were working. So they were honestly
working two days a week. And when you I didn't
know if they were working at the bar or partying
at the bar, but came to realize five of the
(32:35):
nights they were partying, two of them they were working.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
Oh, man, we'll take a break, We'll right back.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
He did make a mean when I'd go to that
place on sixth year, he would make me a Dr
Pepper volcano shot, flaming Doctor Pepper. Sometimes those shots were
like twenty dollars in Diesel, made them for free. Where'd
they work at? It was one of those definitely exotic plays.
It was like it might have been Quaw, maybe not,
but it was one of those. It was right there
on six by the airplane bar West sixth over and there.
(33:08):
I mean, it wasn't. It wasn't Dogwood, it wasn't the Ranch,
It wasn't any of those. But it was one of
the ones where you probably go to after college, a
little bit more sophisticated, a little bit more dressier. It
was one you go downstairs immediately. It was like a
downstairs Bakay Barcelona. It could have been that. I distinctly
remember going downstairs to it, and.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
I'm pretty sure Barcelona was downstairs.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
It was one where they'd always have a girl out front,
like a hot chick, love that and a bouncer. But
in the girl that was my roommate. Her job literally
was just to attract guys because she's hot at the
front deck at the front, Oh dude. But she didn't
even like book tables. She literally just stood outside the
club and talked to the bouncer.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
That's what they do when you're walking on the street. Hey,
two dollars butt lights, two dollars bud lights. Hey, first
drinks on us? You got up two dollars long is
on nice ts you guys, Come on in. Hey, right here, guys,
we got come on in. Come on and they talk
to you and you're like, oh yeah, and then you
go in and then there's no one. I mean, she
just stays outside. So what's the point of like, wait, wait,
(34:13):
When you're twenty one, twenty two, twenty three years old,
you're like, oh, yes, this chick wants me to come
into the bar. And now that I'm forty five years old,
I realized that they were just trying to get me
in the bar. She wasn't gonna talk to me because
she stayed outside the entire time. She never came in
to flirt with me. I thought I was special when
I was walking by that bar and she's like, hey,
(34:33):
you're looking like looking for a good time.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
Come on in here.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
This bar's hopping this is the place to be really, Okay,
tits McGee, let me come in here. Oh you're not
gonna come in here and talk to me, all right,
h give me this drink? Okay, all right, I just
spent fifty dollars. All right, Well, that girl never came
in here. I guess I'm gonna leave. Thanks for coming, guys.
You guys have a good night.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (34:56):
That's what they do. They get paid to stand there
and recruit people on the street.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
And match cut they break up. Diesel moves out because
after a bad breakup, she leaves to Houston. And I
didn't think I was on the lease. Apparently she conned
me into signing the lease at some point halfway through
a contract. I don't even know how you can do that,
but I got turned into collections. Had to pay this
collector guy thousands. My parents paid it, but I had
(35:22):
no idea was on the lease, and we just all
just bailed out of the apartment. I just thought, as
how it rolled like, oh, they're all out, just roll
out of here. I left a TV in there because
it was so huge and it really didn't work. It
was back when TV's weighed a thousand pounds.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
Oh, dude, I know exactly what you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
So I was like, I'll just leave it. Oh that's
two hundred and fifty dollars. So they charged us thousands
to clean the place, move stuff out. Had no idea
I was on the lease. And then the collections guy,
I was like, oh, you can actually get popped for this.
Speaker 2 (35:51):
We signed John Clay and myself we signed a nine
month lease our sophomore year at college, right, and we
do the least we end. I mean, we do all
nine months, we move out for the summer. We move
on with.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
Our lives, like and like, four years later, did you
say a nine month lease or you broke the lease?
Speaker 2 (36:09):
No, nine month lease like we did nine months from
August through May?
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Got it? Got it?
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Nine months? That's it and we're done. Like we're out,
we're the school year's over. We're going home for summer,
doing whatever we do for the summer. John's going off
to boot camp for the Marines because he's gonna be
an officer, so he's going to OCS Officer Candidate school,
and Clay's doing whatever that Clay's doing. I'm doing whatever
I'm doing, probably being an orientation leader this Pine at
(36:35):
Utsa pushing carts and pushing carts and being an orientation
leader at the same time. And like five years later,
John gets a letter in the mail from a collection
a agency saying we broke our lease. And he's like,
what the hell are they? He's like saying, we signed
a year lease, blah blah blah. He goes, I'm gonna
(36:57):
go tell him something. I'm gonna let him know what's
going on. So whenever he got vacation from the Marines,
he went to San Antonio, went to that collection agency.
He was like, and he had the freaking lease in
his hand, as long as you got the receipts. And
he's like, listen here, you mother, listen here. You guys
think you're gonna try to get money from me, I'll
(37:17):
show you right, damn, here is nine months. You didn't
get messing with the wrong dude. You're messing with the
wrong dude. John was, he's crazy, he's crazy, like he's
from small town. He said, you know you don't play
with that boy. Yeah no, no, well I don't know
what to tell you. Guys are up to over here,
but that ain't gonna fly. Tell me, I signed a
year lease. I broke a lease.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
He went to the apartment place or the collections collection place. See,
I didn't know they had an actual place. I was
just talking to this hard ass on the phone. Dude, Hey,
you gotta pay this. I know exactly where you're at.
I'll find you.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
I'm like, oh, so, I guess the apartment complex. I
guess these collection agencies just sell them off to these collection.
Speaker 1 (37:55):
Agents, correct, and then they have a headhunter who comes
for the money. I only talked to the head hunter.
I thought he was kidding the first couple of times
he talked. The third time he called me, I thought
he was literally about to drive to the radio station
and shoot me. I was like, mom, Dad, we need
to wire this money. This guy's coming. He's like, hey,
I'm not messing around on me. Two thousand dollars next week,
gets three thousand a week after that, it's four thousand.
(38:16):
You pay me right now. I know. He started reading
off addresses. He knew exactly where I lived. He's like,
I know where you live. Don't think I'm not going
to come there, dude. I'm like, oh my gosh, they
can actually come to your house. That's like, like, dude,
can they dog, the bounty hunter you for collections money.
Speaker 2 (38:33):
I guess they can, because.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
This guy beats me up. I had no money.
Speaker 2 (38:39):
The apartment in Iten and Hebner, Dude, we move out
in our washer and dryer.
Speaker 1 (38:43):
Did your guy get it waved?
Speaker 2 (38:45):
Got it waved? They're like, okay, they marked us off.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
See I had no receipts because I was definitely on
the lease.
Speaker 2 (38:53):
But our next apartment, Itan and Hebner, we moved out
in our old washing and dryer wasn't work anymore, didn't
want it, was a stack of ale one real small,
didn't need it, so we just left it. They charged
a seven fifty moving fee, moving cleaning fee, moving fee,
whatever they called it. And I was like, I didn't
know anything about it. But when I went to go
apply for another lease or whatever, it came up on
(39:16):
a credit report and it was like, it's gonna go
to a credit agency. You're gonna have a collection agency.
And I'm like, god, dang it. So I go by
the apartment and I pay the seven fifty and they're like, oh,
for as littles seven fifty, we probably would have just
left it.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
And I'm like, mother sucker. Oh. So they don't go
after it.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
They don't that for that, for that little the apartment
was like, oh, we would have that probably would have
just disappeared.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
Because we broke a lease and didn't properly move out,
but like seven fifty, and I was like, God, so
I had written them a check and I was like,
what would have happened. They're like, oh, for this little
of a mount nothing, we probably.
Speaker 2 (39:47):
Would have just it would have tried to just disappeared.
And I'm like, you gotta be kidding me. So they
got me for the seven fifty because the fear of
a collection agency coming after me.
Speaker 1 (39:55):
I was like, oh, man, I don't know about that, dude.
Freaking the exchange and sand Marcus, I had a Hurley sticker.
I don't even know if Hurley's around anymore.
Speaker 2 (40:04):
Oh Hurley, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (40:06):
I put a sticker. Harley's still around, Yeah, not that
not Sturgis, and I put a sticker on the mirror.
And when it was time to move out, it like
the sticker totally screwed up the mirror, and they freaking
popped me for one hundred dollars cleaning fee for a
Hurley sick for a Hurley sticker. But that wasn't like
where I it was on the lease and I'd like
the movie fee was for the TV that was illegally
(40:28):
not moving it. But the Hurley sticker, They're like, oh,
we're gonna have to have a professional come in here
and clean off that Hurley sticker. It's a hundred dollars fee.
I'm like, what, So there you go. Guys, if you're
moving to an apartment this fall, they just make things up. Well,
know that if you have a sticker, it's one hundred dollars.
You can't get it off. It's cool, it's cool on
the mirror. Not worth it. If you got a TV
that's too heavy, get a buddy to help you, because
it's not worth it to pay that the two hundred
(40:50):
and fifty dollars.
Speaker 2 (40:52):
Yeah, I mean this may be on the worst pod yet,
but I and also one thing I want to talk about.
Speaker 1 (40:56):
Hey, the Dodgers they got Tar Scoo Ball. We don't care.
We are the Chicago Cubs and we spanked that two
days in a row. I mean he pitched twelve but
we won. Oh yeah, I saw that.
Speaker 2 (41:08):
Yeah, And everybody's like, oh, we need a salary cap.
Speaker 1 (41:11):
Now what we need.
Speaker 2 (41:12):
I'm gonna tell you what baseball needs. Deferred payments. You
shouldn't be allowed to pay someone twenty years down the road.
You have to pay them why they're on your team.
You can't do this. They have like one billion dollars
or something they owe in deferred money.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
Stop.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
The contract is a contract that one hundred and eighty
five million dollars you promised has to be paid in
the eight years that they're on your team.
Speaker 1 (41:38):
That is it.
Speaker 2 (41:39):
This deferred payment is ridiculous. And they got schoo Ball.
You know why they got Scoo Ball because they offered
the best prospects. No one else wanted to offer good prospects.
The Tigers took the best deal they could get. That's
them willing to mortgage what they think is their future.
They're developing young players. Other teams want them. I can't blame.
Speaker 1 (41:59):
Them for that.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
But the deferred payments, that's when I'm like, oh my god,
it's stupid, but it makes it sucks, but it makes
it awesome because they're the evil Empire. Now everybody is
cheering against the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (42:11):
Call me an idiot. They are so loaded the Dodgers,
I believe they're close to even money to win the
World Series.
Speaker 2 (42:18):
Like minus won something. They are I think maybe that's
just a National League.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
Okay, guys. Something just tells me they're so good and dominant.
I think some other random team wins it this year.
Speaker 2 (42:30):
Yes, injury, here's the thing about baseball. Injuries happen. Pictures
get hurt all the time, and you it's like you
get two pictures that are hot in the playoffs. All
of a sudden, it's a whole new ball game.
Speaker 1 (42:42):
I can't wait.
Speaker 2 (42:44):
Everybody against the Dodgers, anybody but the Dodgers and the Yankees.
That's all I gotta say. Yeah, and uh my cousin Andrew,
he got an Orioles bib for his son because he
named them madly.
Speaker 1 (42:57):
Oh gotta throw that in the trash. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (43:00):
So if you have anybody who has Red Sox gear
they want to send for my new nephew, that'd be
great because he's now on the Red Sox.
Speaker 1 (43:09):
Appreciate it. I hate to steal your thunder nephew went
to school ball's last start, second to last at Tiger Stadium.
Him and his college buddies were there. His one buddy's like, oh, man,
I got to get a scooball jersey, and Tristan Boomer
was like, dude, I'm pretty sure he's gonna get traded.
There's rumors all around he's going to get traded, and
he goes, dude, but it is such a dirty schooball jersey.
(43:31):
I just got to get it. We're at the game,
he's uh, he did pitch that game. So Boomer saw
his second to last game at Tiger Stadium pitching. All right,
I'm getting a scooball jersey. A week later, news breaks
went to the Dodger's school ball no longer a tire.
His friend text him, FML, he's kind of Tiger's school
ball jersey. Just sitting in the room heading to college. Like,

Oh man, I love it.

You know how it is being at an event, sore
Losers convention. You gotta buy the T shirt. Next thing,
you know, the podcast gets canceled. Stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (44:13):
Yeah, after this one, we might we had nothing to
talk about that was all over the place. I don't
know what's wrong with me today.
Speaker 1 (44:22):
Dude, that was good when we go back to college,

Jennifer daspit message her on Facebook, she blocks me, doesn't

She could have easily paid me that she has like
a mansion.
Speaker 2 (44:56):
Oh yeah she does.
Speaker 1 (44:57):
Like what is a thousand dollars when you have a mansion.
Let's see. Oh she's a lawyer, ray her brother is
Oh really yeah? I mean she wasn't studying law at
Texas State. Okay, I think I found her. Dude, let's
see do a throw around. Throw around. Oh, look at

Speaker 2 (45:36):
Hey, sword loosers dot com, don't forget to sign up
for the fantasy league.
Speaker 1 (45:39):
Monday.
Speaker 2 (45:39):
We are drawing names Monday, Monday, Monday, Monday. All right,
have a good Wednesday. Guys, did we already buzz it?
I think we did.
Speaker 1 (45:46):
That was terrible, Yeah,
We are exactly one hundred and thirty seven and a
half days away from the Sore Losers Convention in Nashville, Tennessee,
home of the two thousand and thirty Super Bowl. The
Sore Losers Convention is presented by Freeland Chevroley and Richard Jump.
My boy there just posted a photo of a sick car,
(00:24):
and I posted on his picture, let's take that to
the beach. So I don't know if he was thought
I was kidding or not, but it might have been
a Camaro top down, ninety degrees out. Wow, yeah, a
new Camaro.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
I like, because they're coming back with the Camaro. Or
is the Camaro done?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Coach? I I'm not a car guy. I don't know either.
I just clicking clack. Well.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
I know that Garrett still has his Camaro from nineteen
ninety nine, No, not ninety nine, maybe ninety seven. When
we turned sixteen, he got a Camaro. It sat in
his now for years years, and he finally got it
worked on and got it running again. But he's just like, dude,
I gotta get rid of it. But whenever we wanted
(01:09):
to play ping pong, we'd had to push the Camaro
out to the street, so we could unfold the ping
pong table in his garage beer pong.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Now nobody plays per ping pong anymore.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
No, No, we're at the age where we play ping
pong instead of beer pong.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Beer pong can still play with kids. Played it with Boomer,
that's true. They do water. Well.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Yeah, well his kid is what probably ten now, dang,
that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
So he likes the ping pong.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
And then his wife we would have to move boxes
and boxes of crap because she's a hoarder.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
No, not a horder. What does she do like she
shares groceries.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
No, she does cheerleading, like she choreographs dances, and she
sells them their uniforms, kanky. So she has all different
sample of uniforms in the garage, and so it was
just everywhere and can you get these uniforms out of here, Hugh.
But it was funny when the girls would get hammered,
(02:10):
they would go find uniforms that fit and they would
do cheerleading routines.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
But you're like a drunk uncle. Anyways, the Camaro two
on the hood, four on the floor. Maybe we fake
Richard out two on the hood, four on the floor.
What the hell? Does that mean I know nothing about
cort That is great? Ray, So how many horsepower? In particular?
So we fake a video with Richard just to go
ride in the vehicle. Maybe, oh, because Richard said, Hey,
(02:37):
we gotta get lunchbox out here.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Let me tell you I'm gonna drive in a Camaro
like Garrett his seat. I mean, it feels like your
butt is on the ground, like it is so low.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Well, you know, big people can't get in those A
lot of those cars. Oh correct, That's why my dad
hasked to have a truck.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
They can't get those knees down there. I mean I
remember Garrett just getting in that thing in high school,
and I mean it felt like when you go over
a speed bump, It felt like our butt was going
to hit the speed bump. It was so weird and
you could barely see over the dashboard. I was like,
your parents are crazy for letting you have this car.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
It's just blank Q money. Ray, It's called Q money.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
I wouldn't say it was that. I don't know how
he got that Camaro, but I do remember one time
when we were speeding on Mopak and a cop pulled out.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Whoo and what a Garrett do dumped out the alcohol.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Uh no, he hit the gas, hit the flyover on
to twenty eighty three.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Cop never got us. Melcony's unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
I was like, dude, your nuts, but that Camaro could move.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Cop just gave up on it.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Yeah, once you hit that flyover. I mean because the
cop was facing you know what I mean, the wrong direction.
I had to pull out. He hit that flyover, gone,
I mean, no chance.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Yeah. You always wonder the way the cops facing, are
they gonna maneuver and try to pull me over? Because
I mean, if they're facing the other side of traffic,
you're good, right, because I gunned by those all the time.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Right, I think they have to be sideways or facing
the direction you're going. If they're facing like head on,
they have to whip a UI, get in the traffic
and come find you. That seems like a very bad maneuver.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
But I'm saying if they're facing the entire other, opposite
lane side of traffic, you're totally good.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Oh yeah, if there butt is to you, they're not
even they're going for the other side of the traffic.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Because on sixty five all blow past them at about
seventy five, I mean probably two miles over the speed
limit and just give them like deuces. There's no way
they're getting you facing that way.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
You know where they're really bad is between here and Memphis.
There are always five thousand police officers sitting there catching
speeders as you're rolling into Memphis.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
I hate to reference the pandemic, but during the pandemic
heading toward Memphis because I used I lived in the
West Side. Yeah, but I didn't go all the way
to Memphis, correct. But during then, they never sat or
patrolled the West Side. I was going eighty five every
day after work. Never did I see a cop waiting
(05:13):
inside the city limits doing a traffic zone. That's a
great question.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
What did the police do during the pandemic because there
was very few people on the road because no one
was supposed to leave their house, no one was going
to work. So did they just sit in their car
all day and hang out that.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
I think there was a lot of them. Maybe got
laid off wow for the time being, and they then
got rehired, But it was just because maybe they just decided, Okay, guys,
this is just such a bad time. We don't also,
but do we want to pull somebody over and then
have that possible face to face. Covid didn't even think
about that. I don't know, but I'm just saying and this.
So then it carried on for a couple of years
(05:52):
until we moved out of there in twenty twenty three.
There was never cops just zerom you get out of work.
He never never, never even saw one, much less got
pulled over.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Also, if you got pulled over during the pandemic, which
I never did, if you guys could fill me in,
did the cop wear a mask when he came up
to your car over was a I mean the conversation
would be very muffled, want and no, get out of
your car? What are you a food cor I didn't
know you said get out of your car? Man, I
(06:27):
couldn't hear your mask.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Romo Fields, what is that Andy? Now? The more the
more I look at those pictures, Romo's hammered. Right.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
If you look at him, he looks disheveled. He looks
like he's had a few drinks.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Well, they said the open container, and.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Then now there's an open container. The facts came out
a little later.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Well, and then also Graham and Grandpa were made up.
They're in heaven.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
They're in heaven. Yea, hopefully they're in heaven.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Yeah. It's just compared to the other DUI videos that
are floating around there at the NBC, We're like, wow,
they were hammered. That's embarrassing. This one. He held his
alcohol well, but doesn't mean you should be driving correct.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
And you make one hundred and eighty million dollars, how
do you not? How do you not have a driver?
I just I will never. I can't understand it. How
these people are so filthy rich and they don't have drivers. Dude,
it would be so amazing to have a driver.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Dude. Just get a way, mo. And also why you
should always listen to our show you go, Hey, do
you think he'll face any suspension? I was like, no,
definitely not that very day. An hour later, Tony Romo suspended,
well or won't be opening up the broadcast. Really, he's
kinda he's on Lee leave. There was a preseason, but
the article broke right after we posted the podcast.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Hey hey, Lebron, he's just waiting to make his decision.
Podcast posts Lebron to Philadelphia.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Okay, Like, really, I go, what's the most outlandish team
Lebron could go to and I go Pelicans. We didn't
the team we didn't name the seventy six ers. They
might be really good. Yeah, they got those young kids
that are quick. Maxi Edgecombe Jalen Brown. Edgecombe is inefficiency wise.
I told you during March Madness, when I wasn't betting,
I watched him. He was in the forty level, which
(08:06):
is unheard of it, which means he didn't miss a
lot of shots. He was getting rebounds, assists and when
he never turned the ball over. Edgecombe is very efficient.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
And then if Joel Embiid can stay healthy for twenty games,
I mean, they might be really freaking good.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
We like doing that. But then along come the thunder coach.
Let's start the show. Spurs.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Did you say Spurs because we are the thunders dads,
we are their daddies.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
I look back at it. I mean, it was a
good series between y'all four to two or something. It
was seven games, Oh it was, yeah, it was four
to three.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Yeah, we won game seven in their house.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
And there one guy just wasn't right all year. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
J Dubb, that's fine, that's fine. Wimby won right all year.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Okay, he was feeling himself so much. He opens up
the NBA Finals with a three from the top of
the key. That's how much Wimby was feeling.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
See tearon Fox. Wasn't himself all year. He was hurting
the playoffs man, and we still were able to rise
above it.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
I will tell you this, you guys, this isn't an
old podcast. Today is the August fifth. But Wemby, when
he opened up with a three pointer, I was like,
who is this Spurs team? I haven't watched him all year,
but they may be the greatest team I've ever watched.
Then he proceeded to disappear for eleven minutes. But when
you open the game like that, I was like, this
team is an all NBA team? What are we doing?
(09:26):
Who is this guy?
Speaker 2 (09:27):
And then the fourth quarter came and it was like,
oh my gosh, here we go again.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Let me just jump off this h boy. Oh that's rough.
We're gonna do it live we oh the one, two, three?
Sore losers? What up? Everybody?
Speaker 2 (09:44):
I am lunchbox. I know the most about sports, so
I give you the sports facts, my sports opinions because
I'm pretty much a sports genius, y'all.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
It s isn't it from the north as you previously heard,
I was from the west side. I was also from
downtown lower Broadway. We lived right on Broadway, the street
you party on, we lived on. It didn't get a
lot of coverage though, I mean, there's a lot of
stories that need to be told about that. But anyways,
I'm in the country now, two acres. It's mode. We
got the monkey grass all over the place. I went
and trimmed it the other day. We got two kids
(10:13):
at Vandy. They are just eggs. They still need to
be fertilized. Not yet deciding if I'm gonna do that
or not. But there is that Trump tax credit that
goes into effect. It is an effect all the way
up until twenty twenty eight. So you have a child,
you can have five hundred from our iHeart, you can
have a thousand from government. You can make fifteen hundred
just for having a kid. And then I mean, what
(10:33):
do they say, what if you put it in foster care?
Do I still get the fifteen hundred.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
I think you still get the fifteen hundred.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Right, it's a workaround.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
If you give it up for an adoption, fifteen hundred
your way over.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
To you, man, That's all I got. Justin's on a
dinghy young gun Lake. Haven't heard from him since Fantasy
talk more to come from him, but we are gonna
have a team together. Coach over to you and not
back over to me. You got a lot to say.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
I do have a lot to say because our old
studio mate, man Travis. I don't know what his deal is, like,
I have no idea what his beef is with the WNBA,
Like I don't know. I don't watch the WNBA. I
don't know what's going on. I don't follow Clay Travis.
(11:15):
He hasn't been in the studio in about three years,
so I have not seen him. The restaurant that I
ran into him that one time and I was like,
what up, Clay, thanks for sharing the studio. It closed down.
That restaurant is no longer there, so I don't know
where he eats. So I don't know how to run
into him on a regular basis. But I don't know
(11:38):
why he's mad at the WNBA. But he tweeted out
that he will put up ten million of his own
dollars and have the Las Vegas Aces the WNBA champions
play a high school boys state championship team of his
picking winner gets ten million.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
I mean, I don't know why he hates the WNBA,
but I love this. You know why he does because
he hates women. No, it's political. It's that whole Sophie
Cunningham thing about trans shouldn't be able to play in
the WNBA. That's why he's doing it.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Yes, and his point is, oh man, that that he
no trans people should be able to play in the WNBA.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
And he's on the side of Sophie Cunningham, who says,
for because of the little girls, she doesn't want trans
in the WNBA. But now there's this I think man overseas. Okay,
I saw that. Who's unreal? No, No, and Clay's like, hey,
if we support trans, why don't we bring her to
the NBA. So he's just going off on it all. Okay.
(12:47):
See I didn't follow all that.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
I just followed the Hey, I'll put up ten million
of my own dollars, and I was like, holy crap.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Would that be a good Who do you think wins
the high school basketball team? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:01):
The high school basketball team would win. Yeah, because you
have to think about like we there was that guy,
uh that we had on the pod the one time
he went to University Kansas and he was a high
school basketball player. He didn't play in college. He was
like a team manager for the women's team, and that's
(13:21):
who they practiced against. He was just good in inner
murals and they went and got him. So that just
tells me. I think just the athleticism of the high
school boys, because they're gonna be dunking, They're gonna be
able to dunk, They're gonna be so I think they
win the game.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
But that girl that we got from the trade of
the arms dealer, she can dunk. Griner.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
I haven't seen her dunk in a long time.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Right, one of the worst trades in American history.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
No, I just don't know much about I don't watch
the w NBA. But I just assume that a high
school boys, because I figure freshman boys going to college,
like I imagine a high school there five star recruits
are better than the women.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
I just maybe I'm wrong, And I think his point
with that is that men are better than women inherently,
and so that his point is trans wouldn't be comp
shouldn't be allowed to play in the WNBA because of
their biological mail makerup.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
So they would have an unfair advantage, and so that's
why I just saw the tweet and I was like,
what is going on? Also, how does he have so
much freaking money? Hey, I got ten extra million dollars
laying around that I can just throw on the line.
No problem house sales.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
I know he's moved around so that every time you're
making a couple million on that syndicated show. Yeah, I
believe he sold. Maybe he didn't, or he did OutKick
portions of it.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Yeah, I think I saw a story about he sold it,
but he's still part of it.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Yeah, I mean that could be easily twenty thirty million day.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
But his kid goes to private school. Yeah, I mean
that's one hundred thousand right there.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
You don't know, and this is dead series. You don't
really realize how people have all their money, but then
you realize. So for him, it's not family money, but
it's he's also a lawyer, so not practicing, right, not practicing.
But because of that, he's written books that are popular.
But I mean, there do you become a millionaire on that?
Who knows? But he's also done the radio show type
(15:26):
stuff and then the books and no movies, but syndication
selling a company that stuff can add up house sales.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
Yeah, but yeah, to have ten million dollars to throw
around like that, that'd be pretty freaking cool. But a
great tweet. It'll never happen. The WNBA would never do
it because the chance of them losing would be absolutely
devastating for their league. You would have to fold and
close up shop. And the fact that he just keeps
doing it and doing it, and hey, where's that I
(15:57):
got ten million, let's go. It's never gonna happen. But
I thought it was hilarious. Didn't realize it was all
over this Trans controversy of Sophie Cunningham and all this.
And then I saw the Minnesota coach wearing a shirt
supporting Trans. I mean, the WNBA, they all hate each other.
It's amazing.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
Well, and the Sophie Cunningham, I hope I'm saying the
right girl she got I don't know anything. She got
elbowed in the face and they didn't even call a foul.
They called a fowl on her, yeah, because maybe the
ref was against her.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
Or maybe she was in their zone. I don't know.
And then I saw one girl I don't know what
team they were on. She was dating her teammate and
then she posted, oh she cheated on me with these
two other girls in the WNBA, And I'm like, ude,
this it is like a soap opera, like they honest
to god, you know how they have hard knocks for
(16:48):
the NFL. They should have a hard knox for the WNBA.
All the drama that goes on, it's pretty fascinating.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
You know who has hard knocks? Tell me I believe
Seattle Seahawks. Seattle Seahawks haven't watched it. I saw a
clip that it was kind of cringe but also interesting.
Because HBO does everything interesting. They could do our show
and make us interesting.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Yeah, because our podcast sucks, but they would be able
to somehow turn it into good.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
The coach goes, hey, cameras are here. You know why
I did this? Because their coach he's kind of a
weirder ish doc. Yeah, he's kind of weird. It guess
quirky if you will. Maybe we're all weird. But he goes,
why are the cameras here? Make us uncomfortable, make us
be ourselves. Maybe it's a little weird. I like it. Everybody,
(17:36):
you start to be focused on things get better? How
can I do this better? Cameras, You're gonna get better.
So I just like them here cuz I don't know,
just kind of weird. So I like them here.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
And then I found it weird that they're doing the
Super Bowl Champions. Usually it's a terrible team. Yeah, Usually
it's like a team that won three games and I
don't understand the like how they get to that team.
But to have this super Bowl Champs pretty freaking cool.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Props. But I also haven't watched Hard Knocks in about
five years. I need to watch the dance before I
watch Hard Knocks. That's the last dance.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Hey, that is pandemic time, dude, that is back from
the pandemics, bringing.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
It full circle. Great job.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
The fact that you haven't watched that, Well, what's funny
is I started watching what did I start watching the
USA soccer one leading up.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
To the World Cup.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I got halfway through the first episode, then the World
Cup started and I never went back.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
A lot of these things you're not going back to.
It's hard. There's so many there's so.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Much there's new stuff coming out every day, and there's
just not enough time in the day.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
That's why unless it's a friend that really recommends me something,
or it's something my niche. Dude, I'm not gonna watch
some alien bang itself if the guy it works, like, Hey,
it's a really good documentary about aliens, aliens having sex.
You know what, That's probably something I'm never gonna watch.
But I get you love it. You love of these
(19:00):
aliens hooking up. That's not probably for me. So even
though all of America's watching these aliens all bang each other,
my name's Ben and I and in it, my name
is Paul.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
It's up to y'all and we'll be right back. So
here's the thing. I don't have time to watch anything
because my kids all of a sudden want to have
movie night. I feel like every single night partying. Well
we're not partying right now, but we're just resting. But
we're getting ready for school. We are less than a
week away from the start of school, so we got
(19:30):
to start kind of getting back in a routine, allegedly.
And then last night they're like, can we watch a movie?
And so we google funny movies for elementary school children
hangover and this one called Chicken Run is what it's
we're supposed to be funny. So we watch it and
it wasn't that funny, Like my kids were like, Dad,
(19:51):
I thought this was what was supposed to be funny.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
But who's saying it's funny. Did kids review it the internet?
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
We just googled funny movies for elementary kids and Chicken
Run was one of the top ones. And it's like
they're trying to escape from the chicken farm, like they're
they're laying eggs and when they stop laying eggs, one
girl didn't lay eggs for three days and the owner
took her in the shed and axed her.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
What is it anime? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (20:21):
It is, Well, it's like clay they're like Claymation, but
it's like a cartoon like it's yes.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Claymation is still making it or is it older now
it's new? Man, you're telling me there's a new Claymation movie.
When you have AI, you can't google. Ah, dang it.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
I was gonna see when Chicken Run came out.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
But it's a newer movie. It's within I mean, it
has to be within the last ten years. But my
my thing was they showed that that they show and
grab the chicken by the freaking head, take her into
the little barn. They have the axe there, and then
you hear clock clock.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
They don't show. But my kids, like Dade, I thought.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
This was supposed to be funny, and I'm like, what
the hell is this?
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Good reviews America.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
It was not that funny, Like there was maybe two
funny parts out of the whole movie. It was just
kind of like, oh man, this is okay, that's funny,
But my kids didn't laugh that much.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
That's what I'm saying. You need reviews from people in house.
Your wife, you trust her.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
She's never seen Chicken Run's never seen Chicken Run.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
It's a good forty nine ers documentary, batter of the box.
You need reviews from those type of people. If Billy
tells me, Baser, she knows what I like. You wouldn't
like this. But everybody's telling me it's awesome. No, no, no,
you wouldn't like it. Baser knows me. So you need
to have like a parent you trust a kid at school.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Yeah, I get that, and I understand what you're saying.
I'm just saying, we have gone We've been doing a
lot of movies, So like, we watched Mighty Ducks, we
watched Little Giants, we watched.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Lady Bugs.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
We've watched a lot of things. So we're trying to
come up with new ones.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
So we google.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
We watched The Iron Giant. You're going back, have we
get The Iron Giant was really old. I didn't know
how old it was by googled good movies and that
was it. But Chicken Run it just wasn't funny. And
so I was just like, man, we were brushing teeth
last night and the middle kids like, Dad, I thought
that was supposed to be funny.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
He goes.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
I only laughed like twice. I'm like, yeah, he goes,
and what he goes? Well, what did they do to
that one chicken? Did they really? And I'm like, yeah, man,
that's that's kind of how it happens.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Man, That's how we get chicken nuggets, you know, your
eggs in the morning.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Yeah, yeah, that's what I'm saying. So I haven't had
time to watch anything like I haven't time to do
haven't had time to do research for fantasy football?
Speaker 1 (22:50):
How much research have you done? Got the NUDI mag
from Circa. They gave me a free one oh yeah,
And so then I started thinking I wasn't gonna get
the Daily Room deposit back. Yeah, got it back. Good
circuit just leaves you fantasy magazines for free. So got
a fifteen dollars fantasy magazine. I already hit up justin
what we're gonna be ended up doing. He's already naming
Ohio State players that he wants Carnell take. Gotta get him.
(23:12):
Stop stop, he's right here. Yeah, but I mean, Titans
football is what it is. They're gonna put up eighteen
points a game. I've seen it for five straight years,
and this is a new regime. Dude.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
They got Robert Sola, they got cam Ward, they got they.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
Still have Ridley. Yeah, and they got that Deshaun and
Wandell Okay, I don't know who that is, guy for
the Giants, Wandell Robinson. Oh, Wandell Robinson got it, yep,
stuff like that. So but yeah, but yeah, we've talked
lightly about fantasy. But you still got another a whole
other month. They're still in camp.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
No, I understand that, but we are. I mean, we
have it up right now. It's sored Losers dot com.
People are signing up. People are are registering to get
in the drawing for next Monday to have their name
drawn and the most exclusive fantasy football league there is.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
Do we need to discovery where we can look into
people's funds to make sure that they have the money
that if they were drawn.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Nope, not worried about it. If they sign up. They
are responsible adults. They know how to have the funny,
They know what they need to do. What if we
ask if they got a paw on their VCR, go
paw on that VCR?
Speaker 1 (24:17):
What if we ask them for just a screen grab
of an account, whether it be a savings account, a
checking account, a stock account, fidelity of four to one k,
just a proof of money. We just need to see
that you can afford the two hundred dollars. Everybody starts
flexing their one hundred thousands. Everybody's like, oh, look at me,
look at me, look at this bank account. This is
(24:39):
my ra roth that one couple drops a ten million
dollars account.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
On them, Yeah, I mean that would be kind of awkward.
They start, Hey, everybody goes to Facebook screen shot in
their accounts and putting it on there.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Somebody screenshots that it's negative. I remember those days who
knew a checking account could go negative. It can with
account bounces, Yeah, I really can.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
It's really it's weird how that happens. And you know
what's weird is I used to want to feel like
a baller, So like when I would get checks from
people or whatever, I would save them and so I
had a big stack to go to the bank with
like four or five checks. That way, I could put
a lot of money at one time. The only problem
is when you do that, you're letting. You're sitting there
(25:25):
and you're losing money and losing money and pay them.
Like my roommates in college, I'd pay the rent and
they would pay me, and so I didn't have enough
money in the count, but I only had two checks,
so I'd be negative in my account.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
The worst they hit you, it actually got pop for
that wells Fargo, Oh, because they were giving people too
many fees. I think at some points if you got
like an overdraft and then another overdrafted up it, so
you could be you could be seventy five hundred dollars
an overdraft if you over go yeah, because it wasn't oh,
it was a twenty five dollars hit, and then the
second offense. It was like a fifty dollars hit, but
(25:58):
they got popped for that. They're in trouble that you
got money back on that one. Well that is not cool. Yeah,
and so but you could call them and they would
wave one or two. And I remember distinctly, living downtown
Lower Broadway calling the lady and I'll never forget. She's
probably seventy five years old. She logs into the account
and it's like negative one hundred and twenty five dollars,
and her exact words were, honey, honey, oh my gosh,
(26:25):
let me take a look at this. What if you done?
And so then she's explained, obviously I knew all this.
She's like, what do you want our protection? I don't
know something, so it'll never overdraft or something. She goes,
and obviously when you overdraft, you know it's gonna overdraft.
But I was playing dumb, like, oh my gosh, I
(26:45):
had no warning. How did I know it was at zero?
And she's like, oh yes, She's like, I'm gonna be
able to wave one of these, and she goes, but
we need to put this in place where there's a
buffer you can I guess you could maybe give her
two hundred dollars and it would be attached to the
savings account, so it never overdraft. Oh I was smart,
but I was playing dumb. And I'm like, oh, I don't.
I like, how was I supposed to know it was
at zero? And she's like, honey, it's okay. Oh my gosh, okay,
(27:09):
we got you back to zero. Okay, but but never
let this happen again. She was actually concerned for me.
She ended up waving a lot of those overdrafts.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
So that's very nice of her. I like when they
do that. I've done that with the credit card. Like
the bill is due on the twentieth and I wake
up on the twenty first. I'm like, oh, crap, forgot
to pay it. And if you don't pay it, you know,
they charge you a fee or whatever, the percentage, whatever
it is.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
I don't know how it works.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
And I call them up and I'm like, uh, I'm sorry, man,
but for some reason, my payment didn't go through. I
just noticed that I logged in yesterday and your website,
I guess it wasn't working. Oh dude, we have I
don't show that our website was down. And I'm like, well,
ma'am I was on there last night trying to pay it,
and it was not working. It was not allowing me
(27:56):
to make a payment, so I'm worried that I'm gonna
get charged. Well, let me take a look here. Okay,
did you want to pay that right now? Yeah, that
would be great. Okay, then I'll go ahead and take
that fee off because if our website's not working, you're
not able to make a payment. That's not your fault.
And I'm like, yeah, thank you so much. I just
don't know what. I'm not sure if the whole website.
(28:18):
Maybe my internet was not working, but for some reason
the website was whenever I'd go click make a payment,
it wouldn't take me to the next screen.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
I'll put that in the notes, that the website.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
Was not working for you, and maybe you know there's
a bug or something and they'll look into them.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
But we'll wave that fee this time.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
Really, I just forgot.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
I just absolutely forgotten to pay the bill, and I
just lie to them, and it's just it's what you do.
I think they don't really want to charge you the fee,
and so if you just call in and ask, it's
like all right, cool.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
Well, either it's our electricity or water. I just told
Baser the other day, I still don't know what I pay.
It's called citizen portal. I don't even know what it is.
It auto logs in. It's one of the two. But
their grace period is two weeks. If you don't pay it,
it's it shut off. So the water electricity. Oh so
there's been times it's fallen where we're on vacation in Jamaica. WHOA.
(29:11):
So when you get when you get home, say Saturday Sunday,
it's closed. You have to pay the office in a
five day window. So what if you're tied up at
work one day or two days, then you have three
days to get this paid for or you're gonna get
shut off. Guys, can we extend that to maybe a month.
That's a little aggressive with shutting everything off if somebody
(29:36):
doesn't do it within two weeks. Yeah, I remember.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
There was nights we'd come home from Balcony's Little League,
you know, after a called baseball games. We'd walk in
the house, flip the switch, flip the switch, and then
we'd have to get in the car and drive to
the twenty four hour pay little slot window to get
the electricity back on. Those were the days, man, Those.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
Were the That's usually when you realize the roommates aren't
as good with money or don't make as much as
they say they do. When I lived after Costa Rica,
a quick one minute story, Oh I'm not going anywhere.
Lived with Jennifer Daspit Fine. Was saying her name. She
actually screwed me and we got evicted and she owes
me like two thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
But question, what was she hot?
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Yes, but she's also changed her name since then, but
she owed me two thousand dollars. But no, she's with
a dude now. They get married and stuff. Oh okay, so
two thousand or not even the two thousand we get
back from Costa Rica. We all decide to live together.
He's cool, awesome guy, Diesel just living with him. I
was working at Grondi Communications. I come home one day
(30:41):
and they're just freaking out in the house and it
was like kind of a summer day, so you couldn't
really tell that the power was out, and so then
I started looking at stuff and I'm like, wow, the
fridge is off. Huh. You go up to my room
and I'm like, oh, my room light isn't working. That's weird.
Maybe the bull burnout and don't she blonde? Yeah huh?
And I go, hey, guys, is they weren't gonna tell me.
I go, guys, is the power out? And they're freaking
(31:03):
out and they're like, yeah, it's so weird. We talked
to the electricity place. We told them there was gonna
be a delay. Well, they don't shut down the electricity
unless you are back pay for over a month. So
these fools had been telling me, oh, yeah, we're making
so much money at the club. They worked like two
nights a week, you know, and then they burn it
all on partying and stuff. But they're like, we make
so much money downtown sixth Street. Come to find out
(31:27):
they really didn't even make that much crap. They couldn't
even afford the electric bill. And I'm like, well, what's
been happening with the money that I've been paying you guys?
And they'd probably just been using it for partying. So
then I had, since I had a full time job,
I had to front the money for the electricity to
get it put back on, which when they hard shut
it off, they don't just clip with a switch. It
takes about a whole day for them to roll a
truck and come and turn electricity on. So then that
(31:49):
night I'm like, okay, so got you guys were making
like a thousand a night when you worked Sixth Street. Oh,
you only work two nights a week and you party
all the time and don't really have that much ambition.
That makes sense, actually not making the craploads of money
you claimed to be making.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
I no, no, no, they're making it, but they're just
giving it right back. That's the cool thing about when
you work in a bar, you make a thousand dollars
and you spend eight hundred that night that weekend partying,
you're down to two hundred.
Speaker 1 (32:12):
But I didn't realize when I was at work all
day all they did was sleep every single day. Heck yeah.
And they literally only worked at the bars on Thursday
and Friday, and they just partied all the other days
that I thought they were working. So they were honestly
working two days a week. And when you I didn't
know if they were working at the bar or partying
at the bar, but came to realize five of the
(32:35):
nights they were partying, two of them they were working.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
Oh, man, we'll take a break, We'll right back.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
He did make a mean when I'd go to that
place on sixth year, he would make me a Dr
Pepper volcano shot, flaming Doctor Pepper. Sometimes those shots were
like twenty dollars in Diesel, made them for free. Where'd
they work at? It was one of those definitely exotic plays.
It was like it might have been Quaw, maybe not,
but it was one of those. It was right there
on six by the airplane bar West sixth over and there.
(33:08):
I mean, it wasn't. It wasn't Dogwood, it wasn't the Ranch,
It wasn't any of those. But it was one of
the ones where you probably go to after college, a
little bit more sophisticated, a little bit more dressier. It
was one you go downstairs immediately. It was like a
downstairs Bakay Barcelona. It could have been that. I distinctly
remember going downstairs to it, and.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
I'm pretty sure Barcelona was downstairs.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
It was one where they'd always have a girl out front,
like a hot chick, love that and a bouncer. But
in the girl that was my roommate. Her job literally
was just to attract guys because she's hot at the
front deck at the front, Oh dude. But she didn't
even like book tables. She literally just stood outside the
club and talked to the bouncer.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
That's what they do when you're walking on the street. Hey,
two dollars butt lights, two dollars bud lights. Hey, first
drinks on us? You got up two dollars long is
on nice ts you guys, Come on in. Hey, right here, guys,
we got come on in. Come on and they talk
to you and you're like, oh yeah, and then you
go in and then there's no one. I mean, she
just stays outside. So what's the point of like, wait, wait,
(34:13):
When you're twenty one, twenty two, twenty three years old,
you're like, oh, yes, this chick wants me to come
into the bar. And now that I'm forty five years old,
I realized that they were just trying to get me
in the bar. She wasn't gonna talk to me because
she stayed outside the entire time. She never came in
to flirt with me. I thought I was special when
I was walking by that bar and she's like, hey,
(34:33):
you're looking like looking for a good time.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
Come on in here.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
This bar's hopping this is the place to be really, Okay,
tits McGee, let me come in here. Oh you're not
gonna come in here and talk to me, all right,
h give me this drink? Okay, all right, I just
spent fifty dollars. All right, Well, that girl never came
in here. I guess I'm gonna leave. Thanks for coming, guys.
You guys have a good night.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (34:56):
That's what they do. They get paid to stand there
and recruit people on the street.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
And match cut they break up. Diesel moves out because
after a bad breakup, she leaves to Houston. And I
didn't think I was on the lease. Apparently she conned
me into signing the lease at some point halfway through
a contract. I don't even know how you can do that,
but I got turned into collections. Had to pay this
collector guy thousands. My parents paid it, but I had
(35:22):
no idea was on the lease, and we just all
just bailed out of the apartment. I just thought, as
how it rolled like, oh, they're all out, just roll
out of here. I left a TV in there because
it was so huge and it really didn't work. It
was back when TV's weighed a thousand pounds.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
Oh, dude, I know exactly what you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
So I was like, I'll just leave it. Oh that's
two hundred and fifty dollars. So they charged us thousands
to clean the place, move stuff out. Had no idea
I was on the lease. And then the collections guy,
I was like, oh, you can actually get popped for this.
Speaker 2 (35:51):
We signed John Clay and myself we signed a nine
month lease our sophomore year at college, right, and we
do the least we end. I mean, we do all
nine months, we move out for the summer. We move
on with.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
Our lives, like and like, four years later, did you
say a nine month lease or you broke the lease?
Speaker 2 (36:09):
No, nine month lease like we did nine months from
August through May?
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Got it? Got it?
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Nine months? That's it and we're done. Like we're out,
we're the school year's over. We're going home for summer,
doing whatever we do for the summer. John's going off
to boot camp for the Marines because he's gonna be
an officer, so he's going to OCS Officer Candidate school,
and Clay's doing whatever that Clay's doing. I'm doing whatever
I'm doing, probably being an orientation leader this Pine at
(36:35):
Utsa pushing carts and pushing carts and being an orientation
leader at the same time. And like five years later,
John gets a letter in the mail from a collection
a agency saying we broke our lease. And he's like,
what the hell are they? He's like saying, we signed
a year lease, blah blah blah. He goes, I'm gonna
(36:57):
go tell him something. I'm gonna let him know what's
going on. So whenever he got vacation from the Marines,
he went to San Antonio, went to that collection agency.
He was like, and he had the freaking lease in
his hand, as long as you got the receipts. And
he's like, listen here, you mother, listen here. You guys
think you're gonna try to get money from me, I'll
(37:17):
show you right, damn, here is nine months. You didn't
get messing with the wrong dude. You're messing with the
wrong dude. John was, he's crazy, he's crazy, like he's
from small town. He said, you know you don't play
with that boy. Yeah no, no, well I don't know
what to tell you. Guys are up to over here,
but that ain't gonna fly. Tell me, I signed a
year lease. I broke a lease.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
He went to the apartment place or the collections collection place. See,
I didn't know they had an actual place. I was
just talking to this hard ass on the phone. Dude, Hey,
you gotta pay this. I know exactly where you're at.
I'll find you.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
I'm like, oh, so, I guess the apartment complex. I
guess these collection agencies just sell them off to these collection.
Speaker 1 (37:55):
Agents, correct, and then they have a headhunter who comes
for the money. I only talked to the head hunter.
I thought he was kidding the first couple of times
he talked. The third time he called me, I thought
he was literally about to drive to the radio station
and shoot me. I was like, mom, Dad, we need
to wire this money. This guy's coming. He's like, hey,
I'm not messing around on me. Two thousand dollars next week,
gets three thousand a week after that, it's four thousand.
(38:16):
You pay me right now. I know. He started reading
off addresses. He knew exactly where I lived. He's like,
I know where you live. Don't think I'm not going
to come there, dude. I'm like, oh my gosh, they
can actually come to your house. That's like, like, dude,
can they dog, the bounty hunter you for collections money.
Speaker 2 (38:33):
I guess they can, because.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
This guy beats me up. I had no money.
Speaker 2 (38:39):
The apartment in Iten and Hebner, Dude, we move out
in our washer and dryer.
Speaker 1 (38:43):
Did your guy get it waved?
Speaker 2 (38:45):
Got it waved? They're like, okay, they marked us off.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
See I had no receipts because I was definitely on
the lease.
Speaker 2 (38:53):
But our next apartment, Itan and Hebner, we moved out
in our old washing and dryer wasn't work anymore, didn't
want it, was a stack of ale one real small,
didn't need it, so we just left it. They charged
a seven fifty moving fee, moving cleaning fee, moving fee,
whatever they called it. And I was like, I didn't
know anything about it. But when I went to go
apply for another lease or whatever, it came up on
(39:16):
a credit report and it was like, it's gonna go
to a credit agency. You're gonna have a collection agency.
And I'm like, god, dang it. So I go by
the apartment and I pay the seven fifty and they're like, oh,
for as littles seven fifty, we probably would have just
left it.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
And I'm like, mother sucker. Oh. So they don't go
after it.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
They don't that for that, for that little the apartment
was like, oh, we would have that probably would have
just disappeared.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
Because we broke a lease and didn't properly move out,
but like seven fifty, and I was like, God, so
I had written them a check and I was like,
what would have happened. They're like, oh, for this little
of a mount nothing, we probably.
Speaker 2 (39:47):
Would have just it would have tried to just disappeared.
And I'm like, you gotta be kidding me. So they
got me for the seven fifty because the fear of
a collection agency coming after me.
Speaker 1 (39:55):
I was like, oh, man, I don't know about that, dude.
Freaking the exchange and sand Marcus, I had a Hurley sticker.
I don't even know if Hurley's around anymore.
Speaker 2 (40:04):
Oh Hurley, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (40:06):
I put a sticker. Harley's still around, Yeah, not that
not Sturgis, and I put a sticker on the mirror.
And when it was time to move out, it like
the sticker totally screwed up the mirror, and they freaking
popped me for one hundred dollars cleaning fee for a
Hurley sick for a Hurley sticker. But that wasn't like
where I it was on the lease and I'd like
the movie fee was for the TV that was illegally
(40:28):
not moving it. But the Hurley sticker, They're like, oh,
we're gonna have to have a professional come in here
and clean off that Hurley sticker. It's a hundred dollars fee.
I'm like, what, So there you go. Guys, if you're
moving to an apartment this fall, they just make things up. Well,
know that if you have a sticker, it's one hundred dollars.
You can't get it off. It's cool, it's cool on
the mirror. Not worth it. If you got a TV
that's too heavy, get a buddy to help you, because
it's not worth it to pay that the two hundred
(40:50):
and fifty dollars.
Speaker 2 (40:52):
Yeah, I mean this may be on the worst pod yet,
but I and also one thing I want to talk about.
Speaker 1 (40:56):
Hey, the Dodgers they got Tar Scoo Ball. We don't care.
We are the Chicago Cubs and we spanked that two
days in a row. I mean he pitched twelve but
we won. Oh yeah, I saw that.
Speaker 2 (41:08):
Yeah, And everybody's like, oh, we need a salary cap.
Speaker 1 (41:11):
Now what we need.
Speaker 2 (41:12):
I'm gonna tell you what baseball needs. Deferred payments. You
shouldn't be allowed to pay someone twenty years down the road.
You have to pay them why they're on your team.
You can't do this. They have like one billion dollars
or something they owe in deferred money.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
Stop.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
The contract is a contract that one hundred and eighty
five million dollars you promised has to be paid in
the eight years that they're on your team.
Speaker 1 (41:38):
That is it.
Speaker 2 (41:39):
This deferred payment is ridiculous. And they got schoo Ball.
You know why they got Scoo Ball because they offered
the best prospects. No one else wanted to offer good prospects.
The Tigers took the best deal they could get. That's
them willing to mortgage what they think is their future.
They're developing young players. Other teams want them. I can't blame.
Speaker 1 (41:59):
