Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's just too much.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
No, man, what's too much?
Speaker 1 (00:04):
This video component? I go home that program they gave
us and they said, hey, it pulls the best clips.
One of the clips is like two minutes. Are people
gonna watch two minute clip? Ten of the clips don't
end on a funny moment. Thirteen of the clips make
no dang sense. Fourteen of the clips just are they
(00:26):
even worth posting? I get one good clip from this
website and post it. Wowhoo. We could just do that
on our own. AI right now is not bringing it.
I don't believe in AI.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
I don't know if it's AI's falter or if it's our fault.
Maybe we're not bringing it. Maybe we're not bringing the
good content.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Well, this clip right here would have cut at you
being like, man, AI cut, I mean it cuts it weird, dude.
AI's not now and they don't go on a big
funny moment. Maybe we don't have funny moments. AI right
now is not better than a human. I'm better at
editing the video. And guess what, I don't want.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
To do it.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
My cup is fulleth and runneth over. Okay, I don't
want to edit any more videos.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
My cup is foldeth and runneth over? Who are you
like the Joel Allstein.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
The one thing I didn't say in the meeting we
had with management about videos is I don't want to
do it.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
That's all I had to say.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
All the things we talked about recording, camera lighting, Hey,
you guys need to do this, post it here, do that,
all I needed to say was I'm an audio guy.
I don't want to do it because when I go
home and it's five PM, I just want to chill
my bed and not do one thing. These people that
scroll TikTok cool, people that watch Sports Center cool. I
want to sit in my bed and just stare at
(01:43):
the wall. That's literally all I want to do. The videos.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
I don't want to do it. I totally understand that.
I totally understand. I get it because there's days I
just go home and I just want to sit in silence.
I close the computer and I just want to be quiet.
I just want I just want twenty minutes where I
can just be quiet like I and when I turn
on the TV, like I'll turn on like a Cubs
(02:10):
game or whatever whoever's playing, and I'll put it on mute,
like I don't mind watching, but I don't need to
hear the announcers talking about this and that and up
and down and the wind and the sun. I just
want to sit there and enjoy it and be quiet
and relax. That is what I want to do.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Sounds like you and Baser dude for the valls at
Georgia game on Saturday. She goes, turn off Chris Fowler.
It was him and Herbie. Herbie's obviously Ohio State. But
Chris Fowler, she goes, He's not for us, He's definitely,
he's definitely for Georgia. Turn off, mute it. So she
went in the other room. She let me listen to
the audio.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
It's not about them being for me or against me.
It's just like after a long day of talking and
talking and talking and talking and talking. I mean on
some days and I just like to have a little
bit of like, oh, like in the car, if I'm driving,
I have nothing on, nothing, I'll roll down the windows,
let the wind blow. That's it.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Same Baser getting in their car and she's like, why
every time is the radio off? You sit in the
car and don't listen to the radio. I'm like, oh no, no,
I have it on. I just switched over to another
station and accidentally hit the power button. I got that
thing off.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Off off, I mean it's off. And people with kids
will understand this because right when the kids get home
or you get home to the kids, there is no
such thing as silence. Nothing is silent. My kids love
to just be loud, just to be loud, and which
is great and fun, except for when Baby Box likes
(03:41):
to do his does this screech, and then the baby
Box three does this screech is even louder and more piercing,
and it's like, oh my gosh, do I do it?
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Brownly will say, it's annoying.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
I don't know how to do it. I don't even
know how to do their pitch.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Jennifer, we're friends now.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
He does it and it's just like kind of like that,
kind of like that, and they just do it, and
they'll act like there's I'm like, can you stop, I'm
just stretching, dad. That's a good excuse, good point. You're
just stretching my fault. I apologize. So yeah, I mean,
it's just crazy, man. It's a wild, wild time. And
I understand not want to do the videos. It's tough.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
It's hard.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
It's hard when you don't have a team around you
that can do the videos for you. It's hard when
you have other jobs and you have other things in
life that take up time. It's hard to do good videos.
And I don't even know that the videos add that much.
I don't even know if the Sore Losers Nations cares
about the videos.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Do the videos equate to more listeners? Do the videos
equate to more downloads? Until you can show me data
on that, I don't want to do it. I don't
want to do it. We don't get paid on Instagram.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
I don't want to do it.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Hey, I can create one video. I'm fine with that. Bloom,
there we go. It's funny we just said that about
having a quiet car and a quiet house cause one
of our sister podcasts, Calm Down with Clarissa Thompson and
Aaron Andrews.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Oh. I didn't know they were our sister podcast. I
didn't realize that.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Okay, iHeart radio. And they were talking when they get
home from whatever they do Sunday night football. They said
they want it silent their husbands both they want to
drink and they want to watch the Sunday night game.
They get them food and stuff and they go, I'm sorry,
can you just go in the other room. I just
want them alone time. And both their dudes want to
hang out and talk about their day.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Yeah, they haven't seen them all day. They're like, how
was that was work? How was this? How was that?
And it's like, I just want to quiet, quiet, please.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
We're simple creatures.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
It's weird. It's weird how much we crave silence.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
We're but we're all humans. So you got the Bieber's,
you got the bus boys. At the end of the day,
bus Boy doesn't want to serve anybody, and Bieber doesn't
want to talk to anybody. We all need silence at
some point. And the making of the videos, I don't
want to do it.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
It's like, how do I express this? How do I
say it? It's like going golfing by yourself sometimes is
nice because it's just you and the birds and the
trees and the grass, and it takes me back to
when I ran cross country in high school and good
old Michael Saberian we're walking the course before the race,
(06:23):
you know, you just kind of get a layout of it,
and I'm talking. He goes silence. I'm like, what he
goes it is time to become one with the birds
in the grass. And I was like, Okay, this dude's crazy.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
That dude bang animals.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
And I was like, what a weirdo? Why would you
say something like that? And then all these years later,
now I realize sometimes it's nice to become one with
the wind in the grass. Yeah, the birds in the grass.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
When you're golfing with another dude, you like that pointless conversation.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Sometimes sometimes it can be fun. It can lead to
good conversations. Other times it's like, okay, we there's nothing
to talk about. When they're throwing clubs up in the trees,
that's when it gets awkward. That's one thing when I
would used to play with people and I was really
really bad, and I'd get frustrated. I wouldn't throw clubs.
I only threw clubs with my friends because with other people,
(07:23):
I was just like, that's so embarrassing. It's too much.
And now that I'm forty four years old and I
was with a father and son a few years ago
when I played golf randomly and the one was like, oh,
I don't have a wedge because I threw it in
the tree and it was the dad that said that.
I'm like, Okay, I'm never I'm never doing that again.
(07:44):
I'm never going to be angry at golf again.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Billy low key Flex. We went to Hawaii. It was
Baser's one year free celebration trip.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Was this before you were married or after?
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Before we were married and engaged at the apartment on
the west side.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Was this Billy was before his married or before he
was divorced.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Billy before he was engaged, before he was married. Neither
one of us were engaged. Okay, so all this before that?
Got it and we played golf and it was awesome. Cappealoua.
That was actually the PGA course. We played a different one.
They're all named something like that, these crazy Hawaiian names. Yeah,
so definitely can't who it was that one, yep, And
it was two miles from our place. Took an uber there.
(08:22):
Everything was perfect. First six holes, me and Billy had
some drinks before omelet breakfast. Most beautiful course cost us
each three hundred dollars each. But on the sixth hole
we'd come in with some guy from Ireland and fun see,
we shot the crap for one hole that's interesting, which
was good. Then we went to the cargirl. He bought
(08:43):
us all drinks. It was even better. But then Billy
had pointless conversation this guy for the next twelve holes,
and that conversation leads to the clubhouse afterwards, when the
women are back at the condo waiting for us to
get back. So we're there until we started early. Do
was still in the grass seven am. We're there till
one pm, having lunch with this guy, drinking with him pointless.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
I would or rather it would have just.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Been me, Billy and Hawaii memories.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Did you learn anything about this dude? No, it never
led to business. He's just a friendly guy. So does
Billy still keep in touch with him?
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Never talk to the guy ever?
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Again?
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Interesting, and so that's my point. I feel like Billy
just to be polite, and just to be polite. We
then went to the lunch with the guy, completely pointless,
never let anything. I would rather have those memories of
me and Billy that's on him. So sometimes you don't
have to have the pointless conversation.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Did you find out what he did for a living?
Did he have a cool job?
Speaker 1 (09:38):
He was retired. I'm gonna be rude with you, dude.
I was actually not even good like I am now
at golf, so my ball was always fifty yards away
from them. God Billy talked to him way more than
I did.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
I know.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
He's from Iceland, friendly guy who was almost or close
to retired. He would just go to Hawaii with his wife.
She would do with her thing, he would do his thing.
He loved to drink, and he would just go drink himself.
But he was happy we're there with him. So I
hope we made his day because he took from my trip. Man.
All I remember is the one time I played on
a three hundred dollars course talked to some random guy
(10:11):
from Iceland. Couldn't if there was a lineup right now, police,
I wouldn't even be able to pick the guy out.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
But you can learn interesting things. It's sort of like
when my wife and I were in London, low key
flex and we were sitting at breakfast one day. The
table next to us was a two top, and the
two dudes sitting across from each other from totally different countries.
They had both flown in to London and we're having
breakfast together. Kinky, No, it wasn't kinky, and it was
(10:39):
business and over here in their conversation, like I wasn't
even involved in their conversation, and they were just talking
about some I don't even know what type of business
they were. And English was their second language. I know that.
And they're just talking back and forth, talking back and forth,
and he's like, well, let me look at the figures
and he pulls out this thing and he's like, oh,
(11:00):
you're just all you wants twenty five million. He's like, well,
why don't we just start with twelve and see where
it goes from there? And I'm just like, I'm watching
a twelve million dollar deal go over breakfast as my
wife was eating pancakes and I'm eating some French toast
and eggs, like very interesting. And then a phone call
comes in and the guy starts talking in a completely
(11:20):
different language and then okay, I'm back and they just
talk and they I mean, twelve million dollars, why don't
we just start with twelve five and see where it
goes from there? And I'm like, holy crap. And he's like,
so you're going back home after this? He's like no,
I'm flying to Germany. Then I'm going to this and
they were going to different countries to do business again,
and they weren't going home for like three weeks.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Your wife the bill comes, She's like, what is the bill? Oh,
it's twelve five something like that. You all start talking
in different numbers, and so talking twelve.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Talking to random people can be fun. Now where I
do not talk to random people. This is the one
place that you do not want to talk to random people.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
The airplane.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
It is the worst when you sit down next to
someone and they want to talk on the airplane because
you have nowhere to go. Know where you are stuck.
I know you're about to get on an airplane. I'm
about to get it on an airplane, and I see it.
I want to know your feelings, your emotions going into
this trip, because I see that high and tight cut.
(12:20):
I see that haircut that you got for your brother.
I mean, we got a big reunion this weekend. We
got a big reunion going on. Indeed, Troit, Michigan.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
I heard it's gotten better, but hopefully the streets have
been cleaned up a little bit.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Are you guys staying in the city.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Yeah, we're downtown. We're a block from Camerica.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
How is your dad gonna do?
Speaker 1 (12:41):
This?
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Is your sister driving him.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
In, she's handling it. Sister's coming, nephew, brother me Dad, Mom, No,
not Mom. She hasn't like baseball like that. So my
sister's got to take the reins because dad hasn't been
to Detroit since the seventies, since before the fires. So
the great Detroit Fire of nineteen seventy. You guys all
sharing the room. That's a great question. And that's actually
(13:03):
a question I need to float over to my sister.
I'm assuming there's a couple since we're all adults now
and list, Hey, we're just gonna go back to childhood. Hey, brother,
how's it going? Hop in bed?
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Man? Hey, you gotta sleep with dad? No, you got
to sleep with dad. No, you gotta sleep with dad. Hey,
dad showers with dad?
Speaker 1 (13:22):
My dad?
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Roldmes Like, what do you say we take a little
ritz off? You know, Boomer, you never shower with Grandpa.
Get on in there, bad, I got the back. Hey, hey, Boomer, Boomer,
it's I'm a shower with uncles. All right, boys, let's
elephant and walk it off. I mean this is exciting.
Boomer is getting to go with the older dudes to
(13:45):
a baseball game. Does he realize how good Grandpa was
at baseball?
Speaker 1 (13:49):
MM? I believe he's can understand, But I mean, I'm
trying to think. I believe he understands how hard it
is to make the majors and the fact that my
dad did get paid to play baseball on boomer seas
right now, how he's still trying to fight for a
college scholarship. So yes, I believe he's able to understand
that that is quite a level of playing baseball since
(14:11):
he's seen me play, and I was a two week
college guy, so he's probably trying to overpass me and
my brother with the two week college and then you
got my dad up here, So he's finding his way
right now into the echelon of playing baseball on how
hard it is.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Who will you be seeing play the Detroit Tigers versus Braves?
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Bravos?
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Oh, dude, in your honor, I'm gonna play some bet.
I'm gonna walk up to that sportsbook and I am
gonna bet on the Detroit Tigers minus one and a half.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
I can give you inside info, not Friday Night's game tonight.
I mean, there's two pitchers that I believe it's Morton
and mys one of the two, and then the guy
for the Braves. These guys each give up ten runs
a game. So you're telling me to bet the over
on Friday's game. But Saturday, when will you be at
the game? Briday and Saturday?
Speaker 2 (14:59):
You're going to two? Yes? Oh my god, dud.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
When we go to town, we take in some games.
If the Lions are in town, going to that too? Wow?
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Let me see Motor City, man. I think the Lions
play on Monday night in Baltimore.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Man Ray, I got a friend in Greek Town. He
can get you into Pegasust. It's a club with rainbows.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
No, but my friend Jimmy, he's from uh, Michigan. But
I don't know where.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
The one guy that dresses you, what's his name?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Uh? Ryan?
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Yeah, I'm good on clubs, man Ray. One of them's
on Church Street.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
A lot of guys there, No, Ryan, he doesn't. All right,
here we go Friday we are. Let's see who's pitching tonight.
Oh my gosh, it's Bryce Elder versus Charlie Morton.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Morton, both of them will give up an entire shipwreck.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Hopefully you didn't buy tickets already because tickets are as
low as nineteen dollars.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
Hey, oh well you know why?
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Yeah, because the Braves suck.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
No magic number was at seven last week. It's still
at seven. Tiger's not only not even close to clinching
the playoffs, the division or anything. The Guardians are the
only team they could still get into the playoffs. Everything
else is pretty much setting. Yeah, the Royals got to
within one game of that wild card. They fell off
a cliff. The Guardians have been hot. They went to Detroit,
they've been smacking that ass, and my dad said, I believe.
(16:11):
Then the Tigers play the Guardians again and they're only
four and a half back. The Tigers could go from
a bye in the first round to not even making
the playoffs. Is that likely? Not really, They'll probably still
make the playoffs, but they are ice cold. So yeah,
we don't get to clinch the division while we're there.
It was on pace. Oh it's still at seven games
and it's Friday.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
I mean, the Tigers were freaking the best record in baseball,
and all of a sudden they're in the danger of
missing the playoffs. You got a afternoon game on Saturday.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
I didn't know that yeah, so at tonight night Capper
and then tomorrow the one A one pm get done.
You got college football.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
You got Joey Wintz going for the Braves and Casey
Mize for the Tigers.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
We missed schoo ball by one day. He got that
little rib injury. We were hoping the trainers keep him
out one game. It would have lined up perfect. That's fine,
we'll see him in the dugout. We'll get that. We'll
get the pick, or we'll get the autograph.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
I hope you do it. Hey, hey, hey, scoobs, scoobs, and.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Answer your question. I don't talk to people on planes.
Bet there was a time when I was single. There's
a hottie. Yeah, I'm gonna float over. How's it going?
How you doing good? Good? Now?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
I could not again the line. I couldn't pick the
person I sit next to. Want a plane out of
a lineup? Kid, woman, man, adult, grandma, grandpa, have no idea.
I immediately go podcast eyes close something. One of the two.
Don't look to either of my sides.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
I do.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
I ask, can I sit in the chair. I literally
raise my hand and just point to it like I don't.
If you understood what I said, then sure you can.
If you didn't, then keep walking. I don't talk to
people on planes.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Okay, that's understandable because I don't know.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
Have you ever met somebody on a plane that led
to something? Yes, one time, non non hookup. Have you
ever met somebody that led to a business deal? No,
then I'll never talk to people on planes.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
But it did look lead to a hookup.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
I didn't excluded that. I'm telling you probably one of
the better hookup.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Stories I've ever had. I mean, I was going to
take a break. Yeah, we'll take a break and we'll
start the shot of this. We'll be right back. Yeah
you want to start the show.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Yeah, we're gonna do it live. Arnold will be on
Broadway all weekend. He's celebrating the Titans. They got a
big one Sunday against the Colts.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Oh, Danny Dimes.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
He's going against Danny Dimes, Anthony Thomas Richardson, Taylor the
Third and they got the likes of Taylor Warren and
another guy named Pittman.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Dude. I tried to pick up Danny Dimes and the
sore Losers Fantasy League didn't get them. Someone out bid
me because my quarterback, Justin Fields. He's out concussion. Who
they got back at him? Tyrod Taylor. Tyrod Taylor has
been in the league for fifty two years. He might
be I don't know who's older him or Joe Flacco, him,
(18:59):
Flacco and Gino's but he has been around forever. He
gets the starting gig somewhere last two games and he's out.
He's a backup. He comes in, so I have no idea,
but he's going down to Tampa to play the freaking
Buccaneers and it's gonna be Buccaneers City, baby, Tyrod Taylor. Sorry,
you guys are about to get smacked down. Smacked now.
(19:19):
Tyrod Taylor hadn't played in like six years, and you're
gonna go back and beat Baker Mayfield. No, thank you,
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
I feel bad about the not talking people on planes,
but I don't like talking people on Ubers and Baser.
For our thirty minute drive, it's NonStop talk with the
guy in Uber. Learned all about it. Guy knows how
to grill everything. He's now retired. He drives Uber and
he makes enough money at Uber. He doesn't pay for
any car insurance, so he doesn't make money on paper Uber,
but he does make money, made no sense whatsoever. He
(19:46):
grows all his own crops, told us how to grow everything.
He even checks the soil, how much stuff is in it.
He knows how to measure all that. I learned about
it all, man. That's why I don't talk to people
in cars, planes, automobiles, or golf courses. Those are my rules.
Out on the street, I'll talk to you. So are
loser's convention, We'll talk to you.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Is there the uber talking to an uber? You bring
that up and I'm like, huh, is there anything there
is there for me? Anything for me to do with
an Uber driver?
Speaker 1 (20:19):
You could get an idea about a potential business. Not likely.
One time the guy had a huge iPad and I go,
that's crazy, and he goes, yeah, I just hook up
my GPS to this big iPad and then so everybody
can see it. And so I thought, if there was
ever a time that I'm a parent, I would hook
up an iPad in my car and so then the
kids could fall along. It's not just a small GPS
(20:41):
on my phone. That was a great idea, But guess what,
didn't have to talk to him to get to know it.
I just saw it.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Yeah, we were. When we were landing in Boston at
the Boston Airport. We got in a cab or uber
I don't know, and my dad, not really a traveler,
started talking to the cab driver Uber driver dude didn't
want to say and my neck goes, well, he's kind
of rude. Mike, Well, Natty, I don't know. I'm being
in boss and they may not want to chat.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
And Baser gets chatty with an uber and the ober
is and chatty. I'm like, I laugh in the corner
because I'm like, she wants to talk so bad to
them and they don't want any of that.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
Do we do the intro?
Speaker 1 (21:20):
No?
Speaker 2 (21:21):
No, man, oh man, I'm losing it.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
We're gonna do it live. Woo oh the one two
dude so loser?
Speaker 2 (21:32):
What up, everybody? 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.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
What up, y'all? It says, And I'm from the North
Alpha male, live on the North side of Nashville with Baser,
my wife, two acres. We got two point two actually
two kids at Vanderbilt justin should be checking on them
all weekend while I'm in Detroit. And then also I
have a heart attack most likely when I'm seventy two
and a half. I'm predicting. And then this voicemail I
got from Arnold, I'm gonna go ahead and play it. Hey,
(22:02):
what's up right? It's Arnold and I'm going to the
Colts Titans game this weekend, and I cut a hole
in the bottom of my popcorn every time the Titans score. Yep,
Abby's gonna be getting some popcorn talking guys later.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Man, that's interesting. That's very that's very Arnold. That's very creative.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Man. Hopefully the Titans put up some plain score score score.
They get blank?
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Oh man, they get blanked. He doesn't get wanked.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
Man.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
So right, you know, Justine is not gonna check on Beazer.
You met the kids right while you're going in Detroit.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
Yeah, Baezer is doing a girlfriend's weekend.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Oh at the house. Are they going somewhere?
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Her best friend, Heather, and then Heather's daughters. So they're
doing arts and crafts, making food and being silly all weekend. Probably,
I mean it would probably be pillow fights.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Okay, that sounds like fun. Yeah, Rob, mean, have you
talked to your brother about hey man, wait to see
you anything? Any communication?
Speaker 1 (23:02):
Okay, so you got to get back to ground zero.
My brother has a memory problem, so he doesn't probably
like he has a really bad memory problem, so he
doesn't remember anything. It's like what are the movies called
where people can't remember anything the day, so it's like
fifty first dates. So he doesn't. He doesn't even really
remember that there's an issue. He kind of just thinks,
(23:23):
probably in his head, that we've just been busy with work.
But the true issue is him and his wife eloped.
That offended my parents. That made Baser mad. Then he
also came up with a weird excuse saying why he
couldn't come to our wedding, so that offended Baser. And
then the text thread grew a little deep where it
seemed like his wife was boston him around, controlling, and
(23:44):
then he kind of just ghosted everybody, which is viewed
as rude. And then it turned into seven years and
there you go. So was there a real problem?
Speaker 2 (23:53):
No?
Speaker 1 (23:54):
And so that's why I believe in his head, I
don't think there's gonna be any apologies. He kind of
just thinks that we've just both been busy, is what
I'm assuming. So all that for you to now ask
your questions. So he doesn't remember really anything, So like
growing up, he doesn't know who won the super Bowl.
There's no way he'll know the date. If you just
(24:16):
asked him offhand what year it was, he may know that.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
But it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
No, No, but he'll remember things from long ago. But like,
so you're telling me he has like dementia short term,
like he when in But the truth, the root of
it was or he just doesn't like to pay attention
to things. No, the root of it was when we
were being born, God's honest truth, the umbilical cord from
(24:44):
me and my mom wrapped around his head and he
like lost tons of brain cells. And so because of that,
he has a memory problem and he had to get
life flighted. We both got life flighted to Utah. So
and then he was born with a terrible memory issue
and it's he plagued him his entire life.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
All that to say, this just became the saddest moment
sword Loser's history. Dude, Like I had no I was
being fundy. I didn't know we were about to get
deep about your brother having issues because of how he
was born, and it tracks all the way back. That's
why he struggled in school. That's why he got extra
time on tests. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
So all that to say, it isn't really an emotional
reunion to him. He doesn't remember. He thinks that we
both just grew up.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Oh man, where does he live?
Speaker 1 (25:40):
He lives in Michigon, like he works at the lumber
mill we all used to work at.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
Yeah, so he lives close to your parents, right, And
so he did lose touch, which was rude. And so
now he's actually been going back around the house. So
maybe his wife isn't as strict and doesn't control him
as much. And so so now he's been and that's
how this.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Does he talk to your sister.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
Yes, it's just started. This is all new, So everybody's
back in communication. And he probably in his head knows
that there was a weird issue with the women. He
probably doesn't even know what it was. He doesn't really
know that he ghosted my nephew for no reason. Me
for no reason. I mean I had literally no issue.
I just stopped getting text from him. So a lot
of it is he just doesn't remember. Yeah, So it's
(26:23):
like you think it's gonna be like, hey, man, I'm sorry.
Oh well, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
How you've been. Man, it's not like that.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Man, he doesn't remember, so good, hug it out. It's
nothing like.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
That like when we were growing up.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
It's a toss so mean, wellways shouldn't.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
When we were growing up. No, Like, this is how
he won't. This is how bad his memory was. So
you'd be like, does.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
He know you have the same birthday?
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Yes, Okay, he can remember a hilarious moment from fifteen
years ago and specific stuff like that, but I believe
it's the short term memory, this type of stuff. He
won't remember any of that. So but like one of
the things like the uh we had this foster kid
stay with us and he didn't believe me, and I
(27:14):
was like, hey, just so you know, heads up, Rob's
memory is really bad. Just just giving you the you know,
just so you know, because until you know him, I
don't want to laugh. Okay, you're fine, but like, so
you'll Hey, so you have normal conversations with him, you'd
never be able to tell. But if you get into
deeper conversations and you're like, oh man, he doesn't even
know what day it is. Then you'll realize that you
wouldn't know on the surface. So I told our foster kid.
(27:37):
I was like, hey, just see, no, he can't remember
a lot of stuff. And so the foster kid didn't
believe me, and he goes, I'm trying it out. So
he goes, hey, man, that twenty dollars. You owe me
that twenty dollars. And my brother's like, what do you
talk about.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
I don't want you.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Twenty dollars, he goes. The foster kid goes, no, no, no,
you owe me twenty dollars. You remember I loaned it
two three days ago? Are you crazy? My brother goes, okay,
well let me go get it. I'm sorry. So his
memory so he doesn't that you could play tricks on
him like that where he didn't remember if he loaned
you stuff.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
Now my question is to this bat, because scammers could
target him and he would think, oh, yeah, I do
owe them money.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Right, But they don't say the right stuff. That's how
if they if they like, if they they could, they
could maybe he's fallen for a couple of scams. Oh man,
They're like, hey, you haven't paid your phone bill. Oh
dang it, I didn't pay that.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Oh man.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
So yeah, so there you go. So it's more of
it'll probably be the most chill family reunion. So I
just didn't want you in your head to think it
was like there was gonna be this huge, come to
Jesus moment. It's nothing. It just like we're watching every birthday.
We used to watch baseball games together, so that's what
we're doing. He may think we're eighteen.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
That's but we both have gray hair and balding. I mean,
but twenty years has passed.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Gosh, I'm telling you the truth.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Or so, I.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
Don't know.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
I don't know how.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
That's just how it is, dude.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
So you can call you can call him and tell
him to call you back, and he'd forget because he
wouldn't remember your call.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
He would probably remember to call you back. But how
does he remember to go to work? See, that's what
I asked my sister. I never I moved away from home,
So I go, I go. He's been late, there's been
times he missed him, been late. But Maria said, for sure,
he keeps his schedule and writes it out crosses with X.
You know, so then you're able to see it in
front of you. But if there's no in our show
(30:24):
the way times change in days boom, he would never
be able to do that. With him. He's able to
do it set schedule, but if his boss tells him, hey, guys,
we're working nights next week, he for sure has to
write it down right away. He just wouldn't be able
to remember that.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
Oh man.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
So yeah, that's why I asked Maria. I was like,
has it ever happened? She goes, yeah, he's gotten mixed
up a couple of times, but not like fireable. But
because it's tough to work like that. So like when
we first went to college together, dude, it was a
lot on me.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Oh, because you had to take him to class.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Now you have to take him to class. But well,
and also we would tell him to get help and
he won. You could you could actually have a tutor
follow you around, but he's like, no, I'm not doing that.
He was too cool for it. But if you have
a serious memory problem, you should get help like that.
And so my mom would be like, you had to
check in on him, and so I just go check
in on him. I mean, he only went and then
he ended up going to a community college, which was
(31:15):
easier for him. There wasn't all these outside influences. I mean,
I think I think he missed class when we were
in Chicago. It was Yeah, it was a lot tougher.
If there's if stuff is the exact same for him,
sits in the house, goes to work, goes home, that's
that's becomes muscle memory, and that's all easy. But when
it's different stuff, that's when it like, I can't even
(31:36):
tell you you're gonna laugh. I'm not gonna lie because
I thought of an example. He came and visited. We
love my brother. I'm just telling you this. So when
I come back on Monday and I'm like, dude, it
was a great game, had some port missiles and some
pops snuck a beer because my dad doesn't drink. They
didn't really want to drink in front of him since
he paid for it. And you're gonna be like, what
that was the trip? It was the most basic thing ever. Yeah,
(31:57):
that's how our life is.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Like.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
There's no big drama. It's not like, hey man, I
hate you, hey man, fight me. He doesn't remember all
that to say, he came and visited with my sister.
So this will so how long ago? This is in
twenty nineteen. It was before we were engaged and married
and we lived downtown twenty nineteen, got it, Bezier? It
(32:20):
was yeah, gee yeah. So and he came and visited nephew,
both nephews, Maria and him. Okay, like, how easy we
have the convention here, right, yep? How easy is Broadway?
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Very simple?
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Okay? So he went out just we were all just
sitting at the house, like, I'm gonna walk around, go
to some bars. All right, cool, We're at the place downtown.
Twenty minutes later, he calls us. He's like, somebody got
to come find me. I'm lost. And so my nephew
(33:07):
would be had to go fighting, but Panera bread on Fourth.
All he had to do was go over to Broadway
and then just walk Broadway to the river.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
It's like chest day man, when we were in Chicago
and he got bad. He stormed out of my grandma's
house and he went walking and he didn't know how
to get back. So he had to call his He
had to call his mom in Austin and say, hey,
I need you to call his grandma's house and tell
him what gas stationed him at. We had to drive
(33:43):
and get him.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
It's the worst when you get mad, storm off and
you get lost. Ain't gonna have to come get me?
Speaker 2 (33:51):
Hey man, Hey man, I got myself into a pickle.
Don't know where I am. Oh my gosh. We'll take
a break. We'll be right back. Well, I'm just gonna
give you an update, dude. Pi goal is going down
this weekend. I texted Ginny and I said hey, and
she texted me. She said, hey, have you She replied
(34:11):
right now? Hey, have you learned how to play pie
Gow yet? And I said no, I'm counting on you
to teach us. And she goes, well, I know the
basic rules and it's simple. It's the strategies I haven't
figured out yet, and you really have to think, so
we'll learn. Well, I didn't know this was a thinking
man's game. I thought this was one of those games
where you just sit there and they tell you what
to do and it's easy and it's fun. The thinking
(34:32):
part is really going to stress me out.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
But why do you want to do that when you
have such a limited time in Vegas? Go with what
you know?
Speaker 2 (34:39):
Well, why not try something new? Every once while you
have to try something new. If you just go to
Vegas or go wherever. If you go to this restaurant,
do you order the same thing every single time? Probably?
Speaker 1 (34:51):
Yeah, I actually do.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
Probably I do too. And it's so funny. It's so
funny how you do that analogy because you're like, oh, man, like, oh,
if I ever, you're gonna come back there because the
restaurant's right by your house, so you can try something
new and the next time get your favorite. But no,
we fall in this rabbit hole. And that's what you do.
To go to Vegas. You play craps, roulette, slots, and uh,
(35:12):
black jack. I've never played Paal. I don't know if
I say it right, pie goal is that the one
you want to venture out with? I don't know. Someone
in the email said it back rat. I don't know what.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
Dana White plays black jack and backer at.
Speaker 2 (35:26):
I don't know what Bacarat is. I thought that was PI.
Is that with tiles? I uh, huh, do you know what?
Speaker 1 (35:33):
I know what? I know what? I don't know. I
couldn't PI gal is with cards is back arat where
there's the cards, which is the one that has banker
and player poker. No, it's either backerrat or pow gal.
I thought it was called baccarat bachrot. I don't know
one of them has. You can be the banker or
(35:54):
you can be the player. I think that's backer rat,
Bacca rat, baccarat happy backer.
Speaker 2 (36:01):
Uh? Backer rat is a company card game played between
two hands, the player and the bank.
Speaker 1 (36:06):
Boom boom, So that one's the easiest, dude, back arat?
Why are you doing pie gal?
Speaker 2 (36:11):
And letous see backer rat?
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Because Brandon O'Brien sometimes plays back a rat and you
get to choose. Then you're like man, banker's hot and
then it's almost like red and black. But it's interesting
or in more interesting words.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
You back a rat? What pie gall?
Speaker 1 (36:24):
It's like, oh Texas, hold them king me uh queen
king full house?
Speaker 2 (36:28):
What?
Speaker 1 (36:29):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (36:29):
Pi gow is using the tiles? Man? It's played thirty
two Shinese diamonos that's played in major casinos in China
the United States. All right, cool. The name pie Gow
refers are referring card game called pi guy poker. I
don't know. They are shoveled on the table and are
arranged into eight face down stacks of four tiles each
(36:51):
in an assembly known as the wood pile. Individual stacks
or tiles maybe then moved in specific ways to rearrange
the woodpile, after which the player place their bets. All right,
we'll figure it out. Bro.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
If I am in Vegas and I hear you talking
about a wood pile, keep it to red and black.
Put that on the wood pile.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
I didn't. I didn't know it was gonna be that confusing.
I thought it was gonna be a lot easier backrec
But I got to say. My emotions are high, man.
I'm feeling so good right now. Like I'm excited that
you're going to see your family, and I'm going to Vegas,
like where the noises and everything about it are everything
I live for, the food, the drinks, the atmosphere. It's
(37:30):
the weekend of all weekends, and I can't freaking wait.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
I'm preparing for your voice to be shot. I'll save
mine up for Monday. We can't. We owe it to
our listeners. Have at least one boys.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
You're right, And I do feel a little weird because
my wife's not going, so it's just gonna be me
walking around. I go by myself.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
Oh, don't worry, Hi, I'm lunchbox from Texas. How's it going, Oh, Jim,
nice to meet you. You always meet the people at
black jack.
Speaker 2 (37:54):
Always like to talk to people at black jack because
you know what you want. Let me tell you what
you want. You want a fun table. If you ain't
at a fun table, why are you even there? If
it's a bunch of people that aren't talking to each
other and aren't having fun. Mine's been it, I'm not
in it.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
I hope you get the time I had at the
craps table at Link with Bazer a couple of years back.
She was having such a good time she ended up
at the other end of the table some black dude.
He's teaching how to throw the dice. I'm at the
other side with my guys who were like, got in
trouble for saying a swear word too many times, yepetitively,
and every time we'd be let's do mankys place, Man
(38:29):
we go Guy's place, like he was taking it out
on that table, like sir, just please get out of here.
We're a family's establishment. And I was actually associated with
those people. I hope you have that moment to where
you get separated from your people and you don't even
realize your wife is off throwing dice with some random guy.
I want you to have that kind of fun.
Speaker 2 (38:47):
I really hope I do. I really hope I get
in that moment where it's just pure chaos and I
don't even care what happens to me because I'm so
elated with whatever is going on around me. The table,
the dice, the cards, the tile on which one I'm
gonna do a powgow. I mean, it's gonna be fantastic.
It's gonna be a good weekend. Man.
Speaker 1 (39:05):
I don't want you, though, to blow it though. Do
you have the strategy of where you can spread it
out for Friday or you know, probably Saturday.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
No, no, I don't have strategies because I.
Speaker 1 (39:15):
Go, is there a chance you could be out of
money day one? No?
Speaker 2 (39:18):
No, no, no, I would never do that.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
Okay, I did it, and it's the worst.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
No. No. What I do is I put an amount of
money in my wallet for that first day, and then
I go around and I play and hopefully I come
back to the room with more than I left with.
But if I run out for that day, that's it
for that day. You don't go back to the room
to get money for the that's your Saturday money.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
Would you ever go dip into the Saturday?
Speaker 2 (39:40):
Never?
Speaker 1 (39:41):
Never see Sometimes me and Bazil dip in a hundred,
a little bit, a little bit. Would you ever dip
in just a little bit?
Speaker 2 (39:47):
No, no, dip in? Dude. You're stronger than us, then, yeah,
I am stronger than you, and I'm smarter than you.
Speaker 1 (39:52):
Did we dip yesterday? Yeah, we dipped a little bit
into Saturday?
Speaker 2 (39:55):
Gosh, oh what did we do that? We're so stupid,
so stupid, dude.
Speaker 1 (40:00):
I wish your wife was going there.
Speaker 2 (40:02):
I know, I know, man, she's got to take care
of the kiddos. Man, we need her at the house
running that ship. Why I'm sinking Vegas as ship? I mean,
I don't know. You may see a story on the
New York Times about how this the Vegas has lost
its lights because I took all their damn money.
Speaker 1 (40:17):
But if you are going to do it, my one
piece of advice, you don't need advice with Vegas, but
allow it to be unsolicited. There's that ping pong game.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
Oh I love it? Do that one the slot machine? Yeah,
it's so fun.
Speaker 1 (40:28):
Yeah, so DJ lucky the guy you pay one thousand
dollars and you teach you how to do it. When
he hits. He hits at the pingball machine, I'm pretty
sure it's Aria. There's other ones. Make sure you go
hit it.
Speaker 2 (40:41):
H Yeah, my friends are in line at Hattie Bees.
See here, this is how stressful I am. We'll take
a break and i'll tell you right after this. I
have my friend Amy and her husband justin in town
and she's like, Hey, we're coming to town for some
conference or something, but we're gonna come early to hang
out with you. And I'm like, I'm heading to Vegas.
Speaker 1 (41:04):
Two ships crossing in the night.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
And she was like, oh, well these we can have lunch.
And I'm like, I thought I need packed. I gotta
go home and pack and still make a damn plane.
And you're trying to stress me out with oh, I
need to meet you for lunch. So they're in line
at Hattie Bees right now.
Speaker 1 (41:19):
Dude, have her meet you at the Whole Food's food court.
Speaker 2 (41:22):
I mean that's what I should have done.
Speaker 1 (41:24):
Hey, how's it going, how you been? How are the
kids great? I gotta flight to catch see you.
Speaker 2 (41:28):
Yeah, what sides do do they have? Bank be? Give
me baked beans.
Speaker 1 (41:33):
Well, tell her to get in line. Now you two.
Speaker 2 (41:38):
That's good. There you go, baked beans, mac and cheese.
Uh so. Yeah. The stress of me trying to run
over there and meet them, eat lunch, go home, pack,
get on the airplane. Oh my gosh. And I'm supposed
to set up this account for work because they need
access to my social media accounts to be able to
put I'm stressed out.
Speaker 1 (41:55):
But what's the best thing about Vegas? It's always open,
and the women and the gambling and the food. You
gain two hours oh when you fly out, yea, automatically
you're blessed with two hours more on this earth.
Speaker 2 (42:15):
And can I say that that is awesome when you're young.
Now that I'm a little bit older, you know what,
I do a lot, and then I think we all
do this. We'll be sitting there, you know, at the
crap stable, and I'll look over to Andy and Jenny
and I'll be like goll Ley and they're like, it's
only midnight. And then Jenny or I or Andy O'll
(42:37):
chime in, but that's two am our time, guys. It's late.
Speaker 1 (42:40):
You convert it.
Speaker 2 (42:41):
We convert it.
Speaker 1 (42:41):
Yeah, that's bad.
Speaker 2 (42:43):
That's when you know you're old, dude. That's just a
bad look. It's a bad look.
Speaker 1 (42:46):
Well, and your problem is those people are always chilling.
I'm not saying they're moochers because they're not.
Speaker 2 (42:51):
No, they're really great people, right right, and they're not
the hangar ons. But what they are is out there
they're all they are is just wanderers. You're working like
you actually have to have some kind of structure. Yeah,
they can do it at their leisurely paced do whatever
they want, sleep all day.
Speaker 1 (43:10):
But you know who that benefits Vegas? You.
Speaker 2 (43:15):
Oh, when you.
Speaker 1 (43:16):
Have structure and boom, you can only do this for
an hour. That's perfect for winning money. It is, so
you're not just sitting there. You're not just sitting there.
And I just want to give you guys a lot
for before we go. The Bears are getting a point,
or they're even, or they're minus one. It keeps going
back and forth. Let me pull up my phone right
now and see what it is exactly.
Speaker 2 (43:38):
Everybody. The Cowboys and the Giants shot their load last weekend.
They are exhausted. Their guys were on the field for
so many freaking plays. Their defenses are worn out, worn out,
so you're gonna give me, Oh, the Bears are getting
a point and a half right now, it's Relliant plus
(44:00):
one and a half. Give me the Chicago Bears against
the Dallas Cowboys plus one and a half. Take it
to the bank, and then another one the Kansas City Chiefs. Guys,
do you really think they're gonna go zero to three?
Patrick Mahomes. If Dak Prescott was carving up the Giants defense,
(44:21):
get ready for Patrick Mahomes and the Boys to wreck shot.
Give me the Kansas City Chiefs minus six and a half,
take it to the banks.
Speaker 1 (44:33):
Done, I said, I'm done, man, Halright, they got two.
One of mine's on Friday and one of them's on Saturday. Okay,
you guys are gonna wanna bet the Dtroit Tigers against
the Atlanta Braves. Money line Friday, money line Saturday. The
Tigers are gonna win all weekend. They will not clinch
(44:53):
the division while we're there, because the magic number is
still at seven and here we are. You can't make
up seven magic numbers in two days. They're gonna give
it their best. They are gonna win. Our family is
gonna be back in the winning ways. It is gonna
be a magical, awesome weekend. Bet the tigers, guys, if
(45:14):
you believe in fate, as fate would have it, me
and my brother will be doing the nine nine nine,
maybe just nine innings, nine hot dogs, no nine beers.
Father doesn't drink. We will be doing the nine to nine,
and we will toast the glass to a winning weekend
for our listeners. Bet the tigers, bet on family, bet
(45:37):
on reunions, and a fuck it up hope. My brother
remembers you get on the flight. I had to tell you, did.
Speaker 2 (45:51):
I didn't know, man, I didn't know. Hey, sore losers,
dot com tickets convention and uh, supposedly you can buy
and install. Let me see what my wife said. We
finally got the answer of Veronica, Where is it?
Speaker 3 (46:07):
Where is it?
Speaker 2 (46:07):
Okay? They're adding language to the faq about how exactly
the installment plan works at checkout, and Shopify is pushing
them through an update. As soon as that goes through.
We will also see if we can add something at
checkout as well. But in case you get any additional questions,
they will have to choose shop to pay in installments
instead of pay now Shop to pay in Installments. I'll
(46:29):
follow up again because I'm still not seeing it on
the website. But shop, pick shop.
Speaker 1 (46:33):
How you still let you do that on back page?
Speaker 2 (46:35):
Oh? What is back I don't want to know. I
don't want to know. I gotta go, man, I got lunch.
I gotta go. I don't want to do it.
Speaker 1 (46:42):
Truckers know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (46:44):
Farmers have no idea what he's talking about.
Speaker 1 (46:47):
I prompt you that farmers get that corn hussed, because
it's too late. If you're hearing this,
It's just too much.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
No, man, what's too much?
Speaker 1 (00:04):
This video component? I go home that program they gave
us and they said, hey, it pulls the best clips.
One of the clips is like two minutes. Are people
gonna watch two minute clip? Ten of the clips don't
end on a funny moment. Thirteen of the clips make
no dang sense. Fourteen of the clips just are they
(00:26):
even worth posting? I get one good clip from this
website and post it. Wowhoo. We could just do that
on our own. AI right now is not bringing it.
I don't believe in AI.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
I don't know if it's AI's falter or if it's our fault.
Maybe we're not bringing it. Maybe we're not bringing the
good content.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Well, this clip right here would have cut at you
being like, man, AI cut, I mean it cuts it weird, dude.
AI's not now and they don't go on a big
funny moment. Maybe we don't have funny moments. AI right
now is not better than a human. I'm better at
editing the video. And guess what, I don't want.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
To do it.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
My cup is fulleth and runneth over. Okay, I don't
want to edit any more videos.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
My cup is foldeth and runneth over? Who are you
like the Joel Allstein.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
The one thing I didn't say in the meeting we
had with management about videos is I don't want to
do it.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
That's all I had to say.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
All the things we talked about recording, camera lighting, Hey,
you guys need to do this, post it here, do that,
all I needed to say was I'm an audio guy.
I don't want to do it because when I go
home and it's five PM, I just want to chill
my bed and not do one thing. These people that
scroll TikTok cool, people that watch Sports Center cool. I
want to sit in my bed and just stare at
(01:43):
the wall. That's literally all I want to do. The videos.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
I don't want to do it. I totally understand that.
I totally understand. I get it because there's days I
just go home and I just want to sit in silence.
I close the computer and I just want to be quiet.
I just want I just want twenty minutes where I
can just be quiet like I and when I turn
on the TV, like I'll turn on like a Cubs
(02:10):
game or whatever whoever's playing, and I'll put it on mute,
like I don't mind watching, but I don't need to
hear the announcers talking about this and that and up
and down and the wind and the sun. I just
want to sit there and enjoy it and be quiet
and relax. That is what I want to do.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Sounds like you and Baser dude for the valls at
Georgia game on Saturday. She goes, turn off Chris Fowler.
It was him and Herbie. Herbie's obviously Ohio State. But
Chris Fowler, she goes, He's not for us, He's definitely,
he's definitely for Georgia. Turn off, mute it. So she
went in the other room. She let me listen to
the audio.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
It's not about them being for me or against me.
It's just like after a long day of talking and
talking and talking and talking and talking. I mean on
some days and I just like to have a little
bit of like, oh, like in the car, if I'm driving,
I have nothing on, nothing, I'll roll down the windows,
let the wind blow. That's it.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Same Baser getting in their car and she's like, why
every time is the radio off? You sit in the
car and don't listen to the radio. I'm like, oh no, no,
I have it on. I just switched over to another
station and accidentally hit the power button. I got that
thing off.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Off off, I mean it's off. And people with kids
will understand this because right when the kids get home
or you get home to the kids, there is no
such thing as silence. Nothing is silent. My kids love
to just be loud, just to be loud, and which
is great and fun, except for when Baby Box likes
(03:41):
to do his does this screech, and then the baby
Box three does this screech is even louder and more piercing,
and it's like, oh my gosh, do I do it?
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Brownly will say, it's annoying.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
I don't know how to do it. I don't even
know how to do their pitch.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Jennifer, we're friends now.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
He does it and it's just like kind of like that,
kind of like that, and they just do it, and
they'll act like there's I'm like, can you stop, I'm
just stretching, dad. That's a good excuse, good point. You're
just stretching my fault. I apologize. So yeah, I mean,
it's just crazy, man. It's a wild, wild time. And
I understand not want to do the videos. It's tough.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
It's hard.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
It's hard when you don't have a team around you
that can do the videos for you. It's hard when
you have other jobs and you have other things in
life that take up time. It's hard to do good videos.
And I don't even know that the videos add that much.
I don't even know if the Sore Losers Nations cares
about the videos.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Do the videos equate to more listeners? Do the videos
equate to more downloads? Until you can show me data
on that, I don't want to do it. I don't
want to do it. We don't get paid on Instagram.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
I don't want to do it.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Hey, I can create one video. I'm fine with that. Bloom,
there we go. It's funny we just said that about
having a quiet car and a quiet house cause one
of our sister podcasts, Calm Down with Clarissa Thompson and
Aaron Andrews.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Oh. I didn't know they were our sister podcast. I
didn't realize that.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Okay, iHeart radio. And they were talking when they get
home from whatever they do Sunday night football. They said
they want it silent their husbands both they want to
drink and they want to watch the Sunday night game.
They get them food and stuff and they go, I'm sorry,
can you just go in the other room. I just
want them alone time. And both their dudes want to
hang out and talk about their day.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Yeah, they haven't seen them all day. They're like, how
was that was work? How was this? How was that?
And it's like, I just want to quiet, quiet, please.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
We're simple creatures.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
It's weird. It's weird how much we crave silence.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
We're but we're all humans. So you got the Bieber's,
you got the bus boys. At the end of the day,
bus Boy doesn't want to serve anybody, and Bieber doesn't
want to talk to anybody. We all need silence at
some point. And the making of the videos, I don't
want to do it.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
It's like, how do I express this? How do I
say it? It's like going golfing by yourself sometimes is
nice because it's just you and the birds and the
trees and the grass, and it takes me back to
when I ran cross country in high school and good
old Michael Saberian we're walking the course before the race,
(06:23):
you know, you just kind of get a layout of it,
and I'm talking. He goes silence. I'm like, what he
goes it is time to become one with the birds
in the grass. And I was like, Okay, this dude's crazy.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
That dude bang animals.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
And I was like, what a weirdo? Why would you
say something like that? And then all these years later,
now I realize sometimes it's nice to become one with
the wind in the grass. Yeah, the birds in the grass.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
When you're golfing with another dude, you like that pointless conversation.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Sometimes sometimes it can be fun. It can lead to
good conversations. Other times it's like, okay, we there's nothing
to talk about. When they're throwing clubs up in the trees,
that's when it gets awkward. That's one thing when I
would used to play with people and I was really
really bad, and I'd get frustrated. I wouldn't throw clubs.
I only threw clubs with my friends because with other people,
(07:23):
I was just like, that's so embarrassing. It's too much.
And now that I'm forty four years old and I
was with a father and son a few years ago
when I played golf randomly and the one was like, oh,
I don't have a wedge because I threw it in
the tree and it was the dad that said that.
I'm like, Okay, I'm never I'm never doing that again.
(07:44):
I'm never going to be angry at golf again.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Billy low key Flex. We went to Hawaii. It was
Baser's one year free celebration trip.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Was this before you were married or after?
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Before we were married and engaged at the apartment on
the west side.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Was this Billy was before his married or before he
was divorced.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Billy before he was engaged, before he was married. Neither
one of us were engaged. Okay, so all this before that?
Got it and we played golf and it was awesome. Cappealoua.
That was actually the PGA course. We played a different one.
They're all named something like that, these crazy Hawaiian names. Yeah,
so definitely can't who it was that one, yep, And
it was two miles from our place. Took an uber there.
(08:22):
Everything was perfect. First six holes, me and Billy had
some drinks before omelet breakfast. Most beautiful course cost us
each three hundred dollars each. But on the sixth hole
we'd come in with some guy from Ireland and fun see,
we shot the crap for one hole that's interesting, which
was good. Then we went to the cargirl. He bought
(08:43):
us all drinks. It was even better. But then Billy
had pointless conversation this guy for the next twelve holes,
and that conversation leads to the clubhouse afterwards, when the
women are back at the condo waiting for us to
get back. So we're there until we started early. Do
was still in the grass seven am. We're there till
one pm, having lunch with this guy, drinking with him pointless.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
I would or rather it would have just.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Been me, Billy and Hawaii memories.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Did you learn anything about this dude? No, it never
led to business. He's just a friendly guy. So does
Billy still keep in touch with him?
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Never talk to the guy ever?
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Again?
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Interesting, and so that's my point. I feel like Billy
just to be polite, and just to be polite. We
then went to the lunch with the guy, completely pointless,
never let anything. I would rather have those memories of
me and Billy that's on him. So sometimes you don't
have to have the pointless conversation.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Did you find out what he did for a living?
Did he have a cool job?
Speaker 1 (09:38):
He was retired. I'm gonna be rude with you, dude.
I was actually not even good like I am now
at golf, so my ball was always fifty yards away
from them. God Billy talked to him way more than
I did.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
I know.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
He's from Iceland, friendly guy who was almost or close
to retired. He would just go to Hawaii with his wife.
She would do with her thing, he would do his thing.
He loved to drink, and he would just go drink himself.
But he was happy we're there with him. So I
hope we made his day because he took from my trip. Man.
All I remember is the one time I played on
a three hundred dollars course talked to some random guy
(10:11):
from Iceland. Couldn't if there was a lineup right now, police,
I wouldn't even be able to pick the guy out.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
But you can learn interesting things. It's sort of like
when my wife and I were in London, low key
flex and we were sitting at breakfast one day. The
table next to us was a two top, and the
two dudes sitting across from each other from totally different countries.
They had both flown in to London and we're having
breakfast together. Kinky, No, it wasn't kinky, and it was
(10:39):
business and over here in their conversation, like I wasn't
even involved in their conversation, and they were just talking
about some I don't even know what type of business
they were. And English was their second language. I know that.
And they're just talking back and forth, talking back and forth,
and he's like, well, let me look at the figures
and he pulls out this thing and he's like, oh,
(11:00):
you're just all you wants twenty five million. He's like, well,
why don't we just start with twelve and see where
it goes from there? And I'm just like, I'm watching
a twelve million dollar deal go over breakfast as my
wife was eating pancakes and I'm eating some French toast
and eggs, like very interesting. And then a phone call
comes in and the guy starts talking in a completely
(11:20):
different language and then okay, I'm back and they just
talk and they I mean, twelve million dollars, why don't
we just start with twelve five and see where it
goes from there? And I'm like, holy crap. And he's like,
so you're going back home after this? He's like no,
I'm flying to Germany. Then I'm going to this and
they were going to different countries to do business again,
and they weren't going home for like three weeks.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Your wife the bill comes, She's like, what is the bill? Oh,
it's twelve five something like that. You all start talking
in different numbers, and so talking twelve.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Talking to random people can be fun. Now where I
do not talk to random people. This is the one
place that you do not want to talk to random people.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
The airplane.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
It is the worst when you sit down next to
someone and they want to talk on the airplane because
you have nowhere to go. Know where you are stuck.
I know you're about to get on an airplane. I'm
about to get it on an airplane, and I see it.
I want to know your feelings, your emotions going into
this trip, because I see that high and tight cut.
(12:20):
I see that haircut that you got for your brother.
I mean, we got a big reunion this weekend. We
got a big reunion going on. Indeed, Troit, Michigan.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
I heard it's gotten better, but hopefully the streets have
been cleaned up a little bit.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Are you guys staying in the city.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Yeah, we're downtown. We're a block from Camerica.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
How is your dad gonna do?
Speaker 1 (12:41):
This?
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Is your sister driving him.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
In, she's handling it. Sister's coming, nephew, brother me Dad, Mom, No,
not Mom. She hasn't like baseball like that. So my
sister's got to take the reins because dad hasn't been
to Detroit since the seventies, since before the fires. So
the great Detroit Fire of nineteen seventy. You guys all
sharing the room. That's a great question. And that's actually
(13:03):
a question I need to float over to my sister.
I'm assuming there's a couple since we're all adults now
and list, Hey, we're just gonna go back to childhood. Hey, brother,
how's it going? Hop in bed?
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Man? Hey, you gotta sleep with dad? No, you got
to sleep with dad. No, you gotta sleep with dad. Hey,
dad showers with dad?
Speaker 1 (13:22):
My dad?
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Roldmes Like, what do you say we take a little
ritz off? You know, Boomer, you never shower with Grandpa.
Get on in there, bad, I got the back. Hey, hey, Boomer, Boomer,
it's I'm a shower with uncles. All right, boys, let's
elephant and walk it off. I mean this is exciting.
Boomer is getting to go with the older dudes to
(13:45):
a baseball game. Does he realize how good Grandpa was
at baseball?
Speaker 1 (13:49):
MM? I believe he's can understand, But I mean, I'm
trying to think. I believe he understands how hard it
is to make the majors and the fact that my
dad did get paid to play baseball on boomer seas
right now, how he's still trying to fight for a
college scholarship. So yes, I believe he's able to understand
that that is quite a level of playing baseball since
(14:11):
he's seen me play, and I was a two week
college guy, so he's probably trying to overpass me and
my brother with the two week college and then you
got my dad up here, So he's finding his way
right now into the echelon of playing baseball on how
hard it is.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Who will you be seeing play the Detroit Tigers versus Braves?
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Bravos?
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Oh, dude, in your honor, I'm gonna play some bet.
I'm gonna walk up to that sportsbook and I am
gonna bet on the Detroit Tigers minus one and a half.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
I can give you inside info, not Friday Night's game tonight.
I mean, there's two pitchers that I believe it's Morton
and mys one of the two, and then the guy
for the Braves. These guys each give up ten runs
a game. So you're telling me to bet the over
on Friday's game. But Saturday, when will you be at
the game? Briday and Saturday?
Speaker 2 (14:59):
You're going to two? Yes? Oh my god, dud.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
When we go to town, we take in some games.
If the Lions are in town, going to that too? Wow?
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Let me see Motor City, man. I think the Lions
play on Monday night in Baltimore.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Man Ray, I got a friend in Greek Town. He
can get you into Pegasust. It's a club with rainbows.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
No, but my friend Jimmy, he's from uh, Michigan. But
I don't know where.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
The one guy that dresses you, what's his name?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Uh? Ryan?
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Yeah, I'm good on clubs, man Ray. One of them's
on Church Street.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
A lot of guys there, No, Ryan, he doesn't. All right,
here we go Friday we are. Let's see who's pitching tonight.
Oh my gosh, it's Bryce Elder versus Charlie Morton.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Morton, both of them will give up an entire shipwreck.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Hopefully you didn't buy tickets already because tickets are as
low as nineteen dollars.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
Hey, oh well you know why?
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Yeah, because the Braves suck.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
No magic number was at seven last week. It's still
at seven. Tiger's not only not even close to clinching
the playoffs, the division or anything. The Guardians are the
only team they could still get into the playoffs. Everything
else is pretty much setting. Yeah, the Royals got to
within one game of that wild card. They fell off
a cliff. The Guardians have been hot. They went to Detroit,
they've been smacking that ass, and my dad said, I believe.
(16:11):
Then the Tigers play the Guardians again and they're only
four and a half back. The Tigers could go from
a bye in the first round to not even making
the playoffs. Is that likely? Not really, They'll probably still
make the playoffs, but they are ice cold. So yeah,
we don't get to clinch the division while we're there.
It was on pace. Oh it's still at seven games
and it's Friday.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
I mean, the Tigers were freaking the best record in baseball,
and all of a sudden they're in the danger of
missing the playoffs. You got a afternoon game on Saturday.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
I didn't know that yeah, so at tonight night Capper
and then tomorrow the one A one pm get done.
You got college football.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
You got Joey Wintz going for the Braves and Casey
Mize for the Tigers.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
We missed schoo ball by one day. He got that
little rib injury. We were hoping the trainers keep him
out one game. It would have lined up perfect. That's fine,
we'll see him in the dugout. We'll get that. We'll
get the pick, or we'll get the autograph.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
I hope you do it. Hey, hey, hey, scoobs, scoobs, and.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Answer your question. I don't talk to people on planes.
Bet there was a time when I was single. There's
a hottie. Yeah, I'm gonna float over. How's it going?
How you doing good? Good? Now?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
I could not again the line. I couldn't pick the
person I sit next to. Want a plane out of
a lineup? Kid, woman, man, adult, grandma, grandpa, have no idea.
I immediately go podcast eyes close something. One of the two.
Don't look to either of my sides.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
I do.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
I ask, can I sit in the chair. I literally
raise my hand and just point to it like I don't.
If you understood what I said, then sure you can.
If you didn't, then keep walking. I don't talk to
people on planes.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Okay, that's understandable because I don't know.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
Have you ever met somebody on a plane that led
to something? Yes, one time, non non hookup. Have you
ever met somebody that led to a business deal? No,
then I'll never talk to people on planes.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
But it did look lead to a hookup.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
I didn't excluded that. I'm telling you probably one of
the better hookup.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Stories I've ever had. I mean, I was going to
take a break. Yeah, we'll take a break and we'll
start the shot of this. We'll be right back. Yeah
you want to start the show.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Yeah, we're gonna do it live. Arnold will be on
Broadway all weekend. He's celebrating the Titans. They got a
big one Sunday against the Colts.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Oh, Danny Dimes.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
He's going against Danny Dimes, Anthony Thomas Richardson, Taylor the
Third and they got the likes of Taylor Warren and
another guy named Pittman.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Dude. I tried to pick up Danny Dimes and the
sore Losers Fantasy League didn't get them. Someone out bid
me because my quarterback, Justin Fields. He's out concussion. Who
they got back at him? Tyrod Taylor. Tyrod Taylor has
been in the league for fifty two years. He might
be I don't know who's older him or Joe Flacco, him,
(18:59):
Flacco and Gino's but he has been around forever. He
gets the starting gig somewhere last two games and he's out.
He's a backup. He comes in, so I have no idea,
but he's going down to Tampa to play the freaking
Buccaneers and it's gonna be Buccaneers City, baby, Tyrod Taylor. Sorry,
you guys are about to get smacked down. Smacked now.
(19:19):
Tyrod Taylor hadn't played in like six years, and you're
gonna go back and beat Baker Mayfield. No, thank you,
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
I feel bad about the not talking people on planes,
but I don't like talking people on Ubers and Baser.
For our thirty minute drive, it's NonStop talk with the
guy in Uber. Learned all about it. Guy knows how
to grill everything. He's now retired. He drives Uber and
he makes enough money at Uber. He doesn't pay for
any car insurance, so he doesn't make money on paper Uber,
but he does make money, made no sense whatsoever. He
(19:46):
grows all his own crops, told us how to grow everything.
He even checks the soil, how much stuff is in it.
He knows how to measure all that. I learned about
it all, man. That's why I don't talk to people
in cars, planes, automobiles, or golf courses. Those are my rules.
Out on the street, I'll talk to you. So are
loser's convention, We'll talk to you.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Is there the uber talking to an uber? You bring
that up and I'm like, huh, is there anything there
is there for me? Anything for me to do with
an Uber driver?
Speaker 1 (20:19):
You could get an idea about a potential business. Not likely.
One time the guy had a huge iPad and I go,
that's crazy, and he goes, yeah, I just hook up
my GPS to this big iPad and then so everybody
can see it. And so I thought, if there was
ever a time that I'm a parent, I would hook
up an iPad in my car and so then the
kids could fall along. It's not just a small GPS
(20:41):
on my phone. That was a great idea, But guess what,
didn't have to talk to him to get to know it.
I just saw it.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Yeah, we were. When we were landing in Boston at
the Boston Airport. We got in a cab or uber
I don't know, and my dad, not really a traveler,
started talking to the cab driver Uber driver dude didn't
want to say and my neck goes, well, he's kind
of rude. Mike, Well, Natty, I don't know. I'm being
in boss and they may not want to chat.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
And Baser gets chatty with an uber and the ober
is and chatty. I'm like, I laugh in the corner
because I'm like, she wants to talk so bad to
them and they don't want any of that.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
Do we do the intro?
Speaker 1 (21:20):
No?
Speaker 2 (21:21):
No, man, oh man, I'm losing it.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
We're gonna do it live. Woo oh the one two
dude so loser?
Speaker 2 (21:32):
What up, everybody? 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.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
What up, y'all? It says, And I'm from the North
Alpha male, live on the North side of Nashville with Baser,
my wife, two acres. We got two point two actually
two kids at Vanderbilt justin should be checking on them
all weekend while I'm in Detroit. And then also I
have a heart attack most likely when I'm seventy two
and a half. I'm predicting. And then this voicemail I
got from Arnold, I'm gonna go ahead and play it. Hey,
(22:02):
what's up right? It's Arnold and I'm going to the
Colts Titans game this weekend, and I cut a hole
in the bottom of my popcorn every time the Titans score. Yep,
Abby's gonna be getting some popcorn talking guys later.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Man, that's interesting. That's very that's very Arnold. That's very creative.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Man. Hopefully the Titans put up some plain score score score.
They get blank?
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Oh man, they get blanked. He doesn't get wanked.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
Man.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
So right, you know, Justine is not gonna check on Beazer.
You met the kids right while you're going in Detroit.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
Yeah, Baezer is doing a girlfriend's weekend.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Oh at the house. Are they going somewhere?
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Her best friend, Heather, and then Heather's daughters. So they're
doing arts and crafts, making food and being silly all weekend. Probably,
I mean it would probably be pillow fights.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Okay, that sounds like fun. Yeah, Rob, mean, have you
talked to your brother about hey man, wait to see
you anything? Any communication?
Speaker 1 (23:02):
Okay, so you got to get back to ground zero.
My brother has a memory problem, so he doesn't probably
like he has a really bad memory problem, so he
doesn't remember anything. It's like what are the movies called
where people can't remember anything the day, so it's like
fifty first dates. So he doesn't. He doesn't even really
remember that there's an issue. He kind of just thinks,
(23:23):
probably in his head, that we've just been busy with work.
But the true issue is him and his wife eloped.
That offended my parents. That made Baser mad. Then he
also came up with a weird excuse saying why he
couldn't come to our wedding, so that offended Baser. And
then the text thread grew a little deep where it
seemed like his wife was boston him around, controlling, and
(23:44):
then he kind of just ghosted everybody, which is viewed
as rude. And then it turned into seven years and
there you go. So was there a real problem?
Speaker 2 (23:53):
No?
Speaker 1 (23:54):
And so that's why I believe in his head, I
don't think there's gonna be any apologies. He kind of
just thinks that we've just both been busy, is what
I'm assuming. So all that for you to now ask
your questions. So he doesn't remember really anything, So like
growing up, he doesn't know who won the super Bowl.
There's no way he'll know the date. If you just
(24:16):
asked him offhand what year it was, he may know that.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
But it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
No, No, but he'll remember things from long ago. But like,
so you're telling me he has like dementia short term,
like he when in But the truth, the root of
it was or he just doesn't like to pay attention
to things. No, the root of it was when we
were being born, God's honest truth, the umbilical cord from
(24:44):
me and my mom wrapped around his head and he
like lost tons of brain cells. And so because of that,
he has a memory problem and he had to get
life flighted. We both got life flighted to Utah. So
and then he was born with a terrible memory issue
and it's he plagued him his entire life.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
All that to say, this just became the saddest moment
sword Loser's history. Dude, Like I had no I was
being fundy. I didn't know we were about to get
deep about your brother having issues because of how he
was born, and it tracks all the way back. That's
why he struggled in school. That's why he got extra
time on tests. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
So all that to say, it isn't really an emotional
reunion to him. He doesn't remember. He thinks that we
both just grew up.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Oh man, where does he live?
Speaker 1 (25:40):
He lives in Michigon, like he works at the lumber
mill we all used to work at.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
Yeah, so he lives close to your parents, right, And
so he did lose touch, which was rude. And so
now he's actually been going back around the house. So
maybe his wife isn't as strict and doesn't control him
as much. And so so now he's been and that's
how this.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Does he talk to your sister.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
Yes, it's just started. This is all new, So everybody's
back in communication. And he probably in his head knows
that there was a weird issue with the women. He
probably doesn't even know what it was. He doesn't really
know that he ghosted my nephew for no reason. Me
for no reason. I mean I had literally no issue.
I just stopped getting text from him. So a lot
of it is he just doesn't remember. Yeah, So it's
(26:23):
like you think it's gonna be like, hey, man, I'm sorry.
Oh well, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
How you've been. Man, it's not like that.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Man, he doesn't remember, so good, hug it out. It's
nothing like.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
That like when we were growing up.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
It's a toss so mean, wellways shouldn't.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
When we were growing up. No, Like, this is how
he won't. This is how bad his memory was. So
you'd be like, does.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
He know you have the same birthday?
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Yes, Okay, he can remember a hilarious moment from fifteen
years ago and specific stuff like that, but I believe
it's the short term memory, this type of stuff. He
won't remember any of that. So but like one of
the things like the uh we had this foster kid
stay with us and he didn't believe me, and I
(27:14):
was like, hey, just so you know, heads up, Rob's
memory is really bad. Just just giving you the you know,
just so you know, because until you know him, I
don't want to laugh. Okay, you're fine, but like, so
you'll Hey, so you have normal conversations with him, you'd
never be able to tell. But if you get into
deeper conversations and you're like, oh man, he doesn't even
know what day it is. Then you'll realize that you
wouldn't know on the surface. So I told our foster kid.
(27:37):
I was like, hey, just see, no, he can't remember
a lot of stuff. And so the foster kid didn't
believe me, and he goes, I'm trying it out. So
he goes, hey, man, that twenty dollars. You owe me
that twenty dollars. And my brother's like, what do you
talk about.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
I don't want you.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Twenty dollars, he goes. The foster kid goes, no, no, no,
you owe me twenty dollars. You remember I loaned it
two three days ago? Are you crazy? My brother goes, okay,
well let me go get it. I'm sorry. So his
memory so he doesn't that you could play tricks on
him like that where he didn't remember if he loaned
you stuff.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
Now my question is to this bat, because scammers could
target him and he would think, oh, yeah, I do
owe them money.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Right, But they don't say the right stuff. That's how
if they if they like, if they they could, they
could maybe he's fallen for a couple of scams. Oh man,
They're like, hey, you haven't paid your phone bill. Oh
dang it, I didn't pay that.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Oh man.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
So yeah, so there you go. So it's more of
it'll probably be the most chill family reunion. So I
just didn't want you in your head to think it
was like there was gonna be this huge, come to
Jesus moment. It's nothing. It just like we're watching every birthday.
We used to watch baseball games together, so that's what
we're doing. He may think we're eighteen.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
That's but we both have gray hair and balding. I mean,
but twenty years has passed.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Gosh, I'm telling you the truth.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Or so, I.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
Don't know.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
I don't know how.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
That's just how it is, dude.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
So you can call you can call him and tell
him to call you back, and he'd forget because he
wouldn't remember your call.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
He would probably remember to call you back. But how
does he remember to go to work? See, that's what
I asked my sister. I never I moved away from home,
So I go, I go. He's been late, there's been
times he missed him, been late. But Maria said, for sure,
he keeps his schedule and writes it out crosses with X.
You know, so then you're able to see it in
front of you. But if there's no in our show
(30:24):
the way times change in days boom, he would never
be able to do that. With him. He's able to
do it set schedule, but if his boss tells him, hey, guys,
we're working nights next week, he for sure has to
write it down right away. He just wouldn't be able
to remember that.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
Oh man.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
So yeah, that's why I asked Maria. I was like,
has it ever happened? She goes, yeah, he's gotten mixed
up a couple of times, but not like fireable. But
because it's tough to work like that. So like when
we first went to college together, dude, it was a
lot on me.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Oh, because you had to take him to class.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Now you have to take him to class. But well,
and also we would tell him to get help and
he won. You could you could actually have a tutor
follow you around, but he's like, no, I'm not doing that.
He was too cool for it. But if you have
a serious memory problem, you should get help like that.
And so my mom would be like, you had to
check in on him, and so I just go check
in on him. I mean, he only went and then
he ended up going to a community college, which was
(31:15):
easier for him. There wasn't all these outside influences. I mean,
I think I think he missed class when we were
in Chicago. It was Yeah, it was a lot tougher.
If there's if stuff is the exact same for him,
sits in the house, goes to work, goes home, that's
that's becomes muscle memory, and that's all easy. But when
it's different stuff, that's when it like, I can't even
(31:36):
tell you you're gonna laugh. I'm not gonna lie because
I thought of an example. He came and visited. We
love my brother. I'm just telling you this. So when
I come back on Monday and I'm like, dude, it
was a great game, had some port missiles and some
pops snuck a beer because my dad doesn't drink. They
didn't really want to drink in front of him since
he paid for it. And you're gonna be like, what
that was the trip? It was the most basic thing ever. Yeah,
(31:57):
that's how our life is.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Like.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
There's no big drama. It's not like, hey man, I
hate you, hey man, fight me. He doesn't remember all
that to say, he came and visited with my sister.
So this will so how long ago? This is in
twenty nineteen. It was before we were engaged and married
and we lived downtown twenty nineteen, got it, Bezier? It
(32:20):
was yeah, gee yeah. So and he came and visited nephew,
both nephews, Maria and him. Okay, like, how easy we
have the convention here, right, yep? How easy is Broadway?
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Very simple?
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Okay? So he went out just we were all just
sitting at the house, like, I'm gonna walk around, go
to some bars. All right, cool, We're at the place downtown.
Twenty minutes later, he calls us. He's like, somebody got
to come find me. I'm lost. And so my nephew
(33:07):
would be had to go fighting, but Panera bread on Fourth.
All he had to do was go over to Broadway
and then just walk Broadway to the river.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
It's like chest day man, when we were in Chicago
and he got bad. He stormed out of my grandma's
house and he went walking and he didn't know how
to get back. So he had to call his He
had to call his mom in Austin and say, hey,
I need you to call his grandma's house and tell
him what gas stationed him at. We had to drive
(33:43):
and get him.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
It's the worst when you get mad, storm off and
you get lost. Ain't gonna have to come get me?
Speaker 2 (33:51):
Hey man, Hey man, I got myself into a pickle.
Don't know where I am. Oh my gosh. We'll take
a break. We'll be right back. Well, I'm just gonna
give you an update, dude. Pi goal is going down
this weekend. I texted Ginny and I said hey, and
she texted me. She said, hey, have you She replied
(34:11):
right now? Hey, have you learned how to play pie
Gow yet? And I said no, I'm counting on you
to teach us. And she goes, well, I know the
basic rules and it's simple. It's the strategies I haven't
figured out yet, and you really have to think, so
we'll learn. Well, I didn't know this was a thinking
man's game. I thought this was one of those games
where you just sit there and they tell you what
to do and it's easy and it's fun. The thinking
(34:32):
part is really going to stress me out.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
But why do you want to do that when you
have such a limited time in Vegas? Go with what
you know?
Speaker 2 (34:39):
Well, why not try something new? Every once while you
have to try something new. If you just go to
Vegas or go wherever. If you go to this restaurant,
do you order the same thing every single time? Probably?
Speaker 1 (34:51):
Yeah, I actually do.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
Probably I do too. And it's so funny. It's so
funny how you do that analogy because you're like, oh, man, like, oh,
if I ever, you're gonna come back there because the
restaurant's right by your house, so you can try something
new and the next time get your favorite. But no,
we fall in this rabbit hole. And that's what you do.
To go to Vegas. You play craps, roulette, slots, and uh,
(35:12):
black jack. I've never played Paal. I don't know if
I say it right, pie goal is that the one
you want to venture out with? I don't know. Someone
in the email said it back rat. I don't know what.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
Dana White plays black jack and backer at.
Speaker 2 (35:26):
I don't know what Bacarat is. I thought that was PI.
Is that with tiles? I uh, huh, do you know what?
Speaker 1 (35:33):
I know what? I know what? I don't know. I
couldn't PI gal is with cards is back arat where
there's the cards, which is the one that has banker
and player poker. No, it's either backerrat or pow gal.
I thought it was called baccarat bachrot. I don't know
one of them has. You can be the banker or
(35:54):
you can be the player. I think that's backer rat,
Bacca rat, baccarat happy backer.
Speaker 2 (36:01):
Uh? Backer rat is a company card game played between
two hands, the player and the bank.
Speaker 1 (36:06):
Boom boom, So that one's the easiest, dude, back arat?
Why are you doing pie gal?
Speaker 2 (36:11):
And letous see backer rat?
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Because Brandon O'Brien sometimes plays back a rat and you
get to choose. Then you're like man, banker's hot and
then it's almost like red and black. But it's interesting
or in more interesting words.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
You back a rat? What pie gall?
Speaker 1 (36:24):
It's like, oh Texas, hold them king me uh queen
king full house?
Speaker 2 (36:28):
What?
Speaker 1 (36:29):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (36:29):
Pi gow is using the tiles? Man? It's played thirty
two Shinese diamonos that's played in major casinos in China
the United States. All right, cool. The name pie Gow
refers are referring card game called pi guy poker. I
don't know. They are shoveled on the table and are
arranged into eight face down stacks of four tiles each
(36:51):
in an assembly known as the wood pile. Individual stacks
or tiles maybe then moved in specific ways to rearrange
the woodpile, after which the player place their bets. All right,
we'll figure it out. Bro.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
If I am in Vegas and I hear you talking
about a wood pile, keep it to red and black.
Put that on the wood pile.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
I didn't. I didn't know it was gonna be that confusing.
I thought it was gonna be a lot easier backrec
But I got to say. My emotions are high, man.
I'm feeling so good right now. Like I'm excited that
you're going to see your family, and I'm going to Vegas,
like where the noises and everything about it are everything
I live for, the food, the drinks, the atmosphere. It's
(37:30):
the weekend of all weekends, and I can't freaking wait.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
I'm preparing for your voice to be shot. I'll save
mine up for Monday. We can't. We owe it to
our listeners. Have at least one boys.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
You're right, And I do feel a little weird because
my wife's not going, so it's just gonna be me
walking around. I go by myself.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
Oh, don't worry, Hi, I'm lunchbox from Texas. How's it going, Oh, Jim,
nice to meet you. You always meet the people at
black jack.
Speaker 2 (37:54):
Always like to talk to people at black jack because
you know what you want. Let me tell you what
you want. You want a fun table. If you ain't
at a fun table, why are you even there? If
it's a bunch of people that aren't talking to each
other and aren't having fun. Mine's been it, I'm not
in it.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
I hope you get the time I had at the
craps table at Link with Bazer a couple of years back.
She was having such a good time she ended up
at the other end of the table some black dude.
He's teaching how to throw the dice. I'm at the
other side with my guys who were like, got in
trouble for saying a swear word too many times, yepetitively,
and every time we'd be let's do mankys place, Man
(38:29):
we go Guy's place, like he was taking it out
on that table, like sir, just please get out of here.
We're a family's establishment. And I was actually associated with
those people. I hope you have that moment to where
you get separated from your people and you don't even
realize your wife is off throwing dice with some random guy.
I want you to have that kind of fun.
Speaker 2 (38:47):
I really hope I do. I really hope I get
in that moment where it's just pure chaos and I
don't even care what happens to me because I'm so
elated with whatever is going on around me. The table,
the dice, the cards, the tile on which one I'm
gonna do a powgow. I mean, it's gonna be fantastic.
It's gonna be a good weekend. Man.
Speaker 1 (39:05):
I don't want you, though, to blow it though. Do
you have the strategy of where you can spread it
out for Friday or you know, probably Saturday.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
No, no, I don't have strategies because I.
Speaker 1 (39:15):
Go, is there a chance you could be out of
money day one? No?
Speaker 2 (39:18):
No, no, no, I would never do that.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
Okay, I did it, and it's the worst.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
No. No. What I do is I put an amount of
money in my wallet for that first day, and then
I go around and I play and hopefully I come
back to the room with more than I left with.
But if I run out for that day, that's it
for that day. You don't go back to the room
to get money for the that's your Saturday money.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
Would you ever go dip into the Saturday?
Speaker 2 (39:40):
Never?
Speaker 1 (39:41):
Never see Sometimes me and Bazil dip in a hundred,
a little bit, a little bit. Would you ever dip
in just a little bit?
Speaker 2 (39:47):
No, no, dip in? Dude. You're stronger than us, then, yeah,
I am stronger than you, and I'm smarter than you.
Speaker 1 (39:52):
Did we dip yesterday? Yeah, we dipped a little bit
into Saturday?
Speaker 2 (39:55):
Gosh, oh what did we do that? We're so stupid,
so stupid, dude.
Speaker 1 (40:00):
I wish your wife was going there.
Speaker 2 (40:02):
I know, I know, man, she's got to take care
of the kiddos. Man, we need her at the house
running that ship. Why I'm sinking Vegas as ship? I mean,
I don't know. You may see a story on the
New York Times about how this the Vegas has lost
its lights because I took all their damn money.
Speaker 1 (40:17):
But if you are going to do it, my one
piece of advice, you don't need advice with Vegas, but
allow it to be unsolicited. There's that ping pong game.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
Oh I love it? Do that one the slot machine? Yeah,
it's so fun.
Speaker 1 (40:28):
Yeah, so DJ lucky the guy you pay one thousand
dollars and you teach you how to do it. When
he hits. He hits at the pingball machine, I'm pretty
sure it's Aria. There's other ones. Make sure you go
hit it.
Speaker 2 (40:41):
H Yeah, my friends are in line at Hattie Bees.
See here, this is how stressful I am. We'll take
a break and i'll tell you right after this. I
have my friend Amy and her husband justin in town
and she's like, Hey, we're coming to town for some
conference or something, but we're gonna come early to hang
out with you. And I'm like, I'm heading to Vegas.
Speaker 1 (41:04):
Two ships crossing in the night.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
And she was like, oh, well these we can have lunch.
And I'm like, I thought I need packed. I gotta
go home and pack and still make a damn plane.
And you're trying to stress me out with oh, I
need to meet you for lunch. So they're in line
at Hattie Bees right now.
Speaker 1 (41:19):
Dude, have her meet you at the Whole Food's food court.
Speaker 2 (41:22):
I mean that's what I should have done.
Speaker 1 (41:24):
Hey, how's it going, how you been? How are the
kids great? I gotta flight to catch see you.
Speaker 2 (41:28):
Yeah, what sides do do they have? Bank be? Give
me baked beans.
Speaker 1 (41:33):
Well, tell her to get in line. Now you two.
Speaker 2 (41:38):
That's good. There you go, baked beans, mac and cheese.
Uh so. Yeah. The stress of me trying to run
over there and meet them, eat lunch, go home, pack,
get on the airplane. Oh my gosh. And I'm supposed
to set up this account for work because they need
access to my social media accounts to be able to
put I'm stressed out.
Speaker 1 (41:55):
But what's the best thing about Vegas? It's always open,
and the women and the gambling and the food. You
gain two hours oh when you fly out, yea, automatically
you're blessed with two hours more on this earth.
Speaker 2 (42:15):
And can I say that that is awesome when you're young.
Now that I'm a little bit older, you know what,
I do a lot, and then I think we all
do this. We'll be sitting there, you know, at the
crap stable, and I'll look over to Andy and Jenny
and I'll be like goll Ley and they're like, it's
only midnight. And then Jenny or I or Andy O'll
(42:37):
chime in, but that's two am our time, guys. It's late.
Speaker 1 (42:40):
You convert it.
Speaker 2 (42:41):
We convert it.
Speaker 1 (42:41):
Yeah, that's bad.
Speaker 2 (42:43):
That's when you know you're old, dude. That's just a
bad look. It's a bad look.
Speaker 1 (42:46):
Well, and your problem is those people are always chilling.
I'm not saying they're moochers because they're not.
Speaker 2 (42:51):
No, they're really great people, right right, and they're not
the hangar ons. But what they are is out there
they're all they are is just wanderers. You're working like
you actually have to have some kind of structure. Yeah,
they can do it at their leisurely paced do whatever
they want, sleep all day.
Speaker 1 (43:10):
But you know who that benefits Vegas? You.
Speaker 2 (43:15):
Oh, when you.
Speaker 1 (43:16):
Have structure and boom, you can only do this for
an hour. That's perfect for winning money. It is, so
you're not just sitting there. You're not just sitting there.
And I just want to give you guys a lot
for before we go. The Bears are getting a point,
or they're even, or they're minus one. It keeps going
back and forth. Let me pull up my phone right
now and see what it is exactly.
Speaker 2 (43:38):
Everybody. The Cowboys and the Giants shot their load last weekend.
They are exhausted. Their guys were on the field for
so many freaking plays. Their defenses are worn out, worn out,
so you're gonna give me, Oh, the Bears are getting
a point and a half right now, it's Relliant plus
(44:00):
one and a half. Give me the Chicago Bears against
the Dallas Cowboys plus one and a half. Take it
to the bank, and then another one the Kansas City Chiefs. Guys,
do you really think they're gonna go zero to three?
Patrick Mahomes. If Dak Prescott was carving up the Giants defense,
(44:21):
get ready for Patrick Mahomes and the Boys to wreck shot.
Give me the Kansas City Chiefs minus six and a half,
take it to the banks.
Speaker 1 (44:33):
Done, I said, I'm done, man, Halright, they got two.
One of mine's on Friday and one of them's on Saturday. Okay,
you guys are gonna wanna bet the Dtroit Tigers against
the Atlanta Braves. Money line Friday, money line Saturday. The
Tigers are gonna win all weekend. They will not clinch
(44:53):
the division while we're there, because the magic number is
still at seven and here we are. You can't make
up seven magic numbers in two days. They're gonna give
it their best. They are gonna win. Our family is
gonna be back in the winning ways. It is gonna
be a magical, awesome weekend. Bet the tigers, guys, if
(45:14):
you believe in fate, as fate would have it, me
and my brother will be doing the nine nine nine,
maybe just nine innings, nine hot dogs, no nine beers.
Father doesn't drink. We will be doing the nine to nine,
and we will toast the glass to a winning weekend
for our listeners. Bet the tigers, bet on family, bet
(45:37):
on reunions, and a fuck it up hope. My brother
remembers you get on the flight. I had to tell you, did.
Speaker 2 (45:51):
I didn't know, man, I didn't know. Hey, sore losers,
dot com tickets convention and uh, supposedly you can buy
and install. Let me see what my wife said. We
finally got the answer of Veronica, Where is it?
Speaker 3 (46:07):
Where is it?
Speaker 2 (46:07):
Okay? They're adding language to the faq about how exactly
the installment plan works at checkout, and Shopify is pushing
them through an update. As soon as that goes through.
We will also see if we can add something at
checkout as well. But in case you get any additional questions,
they will have to choose shop to pay in installments
instead of pay now Shop to pay in Installments. I'll
(46:29):
follow up again because I'm still not seeing it on
the website. But shop, pick shop.
Speaker 1 (46:33):
How you still let you do that on back page?
Speaker 2 (46:35):
Oh? What is back I don't want to know. I
don't want to know. I gotta go, man, I got lunch.
I gotta go. I don't want to do it.
Speaker 1 (46:42):
Truckers know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (46:44):
Farmers have no idea what he's talking about.
Speaker 1 (46:47):
I prompt you that farmers get that corn hussed, because
it's too late. If you're hearing this,
