Speaker 1 (00:00):
You want to know my pet peeve?
Speaker 2 (00:02):
What whether it's you? Can you hear me?
Speaker 1 (00:06):
I can hear you? Can you hear me? Oh?
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Someone's wrong on my headphones? Yo?
Speaker 1 (00:11):
Yeah? Yo yeah yo yo yo? What bothers me? You?
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Just then when we talk about football lines and it's
under a field goal, when it's the number two or
the number one, about the betting line, guys, that doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
What does matter? It doesn't? Okay? Why does it not matter?
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Because a three football is in increments of three and seven.
Anything less than three doesn't damn matter? When was the
last team? A team won by two points? And I'll
hang up and listen. Where's my remote?
Speaker 1 (00:47):
I'll hang up and listen.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
How many NFL games games in twenty twenty four we're
decided by less than three points?
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Okay? As of October well that's October first, thanks uh.
As of October first, twenty twenty four, fourteen NFL games
in the twenty twenty four season we're decided by three
points or fewer, so quite a few.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
My point is this, Scoring in hockey is by ones.
The betting line is by ones. Scoring in basketball is one,
twos and threes. Correct scoring in football largely is threes
and seven. So football threes and six is the most
most unique of all the sports in that a betting
line under three doesn't damn matter. So when you got
(01:48):
guys in the office waiting for a betting line to move, guys,
it's that minus one and a half. It can move
in the other direction and still be well under three.
It could even go in that in the chief favor
and not in their favor. But go minus two and
a half. It's still under three. This betting line, there
is no rush to get after. You can wait up
until Super Bowl Sunday. It ain't moving past three.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Oh, I agree with you one hundred percent. I'm not
worried about it. I'm not rushing out to bet it.
I'm not worried about it. I don't know I would bet.
Ninety nine percent of our audience doesn't even bet.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
And the people that are betting it, guys don't even
mess with the minuses. You just go money line because
it's under three. So you do money line unless you're
that confident the Chiefs are gonna win. Then you take
the mind that you'll get a little bit more money back. Yeah,
but largely it's just a money line bet it's under three.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
Ye, even if you're betting on the Eagles take the
money line.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Hey, man, do you think I should go plus one
and a half Eagles or Eagles to win? Crazy thought? Here,
just go Eagles to win the plus one and a half. Well,
they could lose by one and you could actually still
win the bet.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Yeah, but the odds of that happening are very slim. Yes,
very very slim, unless it's they score a touchdown, they
missed the extra point, then it's seven to six and
the game's over. Then you're kicking yourself. But do we
really think it's gonna be seven to six? No?
Speaker 2 (03:10):
And I wanted to say this. We got unbelievable compliments
about the live pod and then the follow up pod,
which we took a week to recover and reheal from.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
We did, and now it sounds like you're going downhill.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
No, no, no, I'm on the way uphill. Man, I'm
climbing up the appalation. You sound like shit, No, no,
I'm not on the back side of the mountain.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
I wish you would tell me the truth because I
hear you and I'm like, oh my god, Ray's about
to be sick.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
No, I'm good.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I'm taking all the stuff.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
I got the musin X, I got the nighttime stuff,
the daytime stuff, I got some little cough serup, I'm
gonna hit on the way home.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Man.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
It kind of picks you up a little bit, you know,
and then you get behind the wheel.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
I'm kidding.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
There's no al calling it. You're totally fine to drive
on it. But my point is this, those were our
two best podcasts. People are saying of the year.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Yeah, Josh, he said, you guys Live Pod and Convention
Recap Pod has got to be my favorite of all time.
Well done, coachers, Thanks Josh.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
He got.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Oh, I'm on the back end of this one, man.
I can tell, man, I can tell you're sounding great
because here's what I'm gonna do today, man, Because it's
sunshine and beautiful in Nashville. It is like fifty three degrees. Muty,
you know, you know. I got the sticks out of
(04:27):
the closet. I got the sticks out of the closet.
I got a hat and I got a shirt in
the car, and I am going to go to the
local muny.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Don't be one of those golfers that's just hitting leaves
at his yard because he's that addicted to golf.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Oh No, this is one of those days where I
feel like the golf course is going to be absolutely packed,
because this is the nicest day we've had in the
last three weeks to a month. So everybody in their
mom that has sticks in their closet or their car,
their garage, or in their basement or in their cellar
or in their shed, they have got the duster and
(05:07):
they dusting them suckers off, and it is gonna be
jam packed out there. But I'm hoping that it is
a Wednesday Wednesday afternoon and everybody has a freaking job
and it'll be smooth the sailing for me and my
clubs and my balls and my teas.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
You don't want the line to be too long on
me and Justin have dealt for it with it. You
go through the five beers already and you get to
the first hole and say, uh yeah, we're gonna need
a refill because we're already out.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
It's rough. When it's a long line and you have
to wait twenty minutes in between shots, You're like, this
is not the PGA Tour. I do not need to
be waiting twenty minutes. Every shot I'm hitting. That makes
a miserable day at golf. And when it's such a
beautiful day, you don't want to be just sitting there
for five hours. I am hoping it is a Wednesday.
I can get in and out in three and a
(05:59):
hal a half hours and we move on with our lives.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
And what you're talking about is now we're into the fifties,
and I saw for Nashville the foreseeable future.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
We're in the sixties, dude, I saw on next week's sixties.
So I've already decided what day Am I gonna try
to dust the sticks off next week? Right? But oh
my gosh, are we headed to spring back?
Speaker 2 (06:18):
You are the trailblazer in your own mind. I was
blazing yesterday, not that kind, oh weed Bomber from Fantasy League.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
I was blazing yesterday.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
It was forty out, and Bazer said, you want to
go on the patio, and so I got by blanket.
I was shaken. I had my musin X, I had
my electrolytes, I had my cough syrup, I had my
cough drops, and I got it on the patio and
I sat on that patio. Damn it shaken, and I said,
it's beautiful out and Baser goes, that's the first time
(06:49):
the sun has touched my face in four weeks. And
I was out there. Guess what I got the stick out.
I didn't have that good of a swing man. When
you're all got the shakes that you feel brittle, you
can't really speak. I think I missed the ball entirely
on the back patio. So I'll be out there next week. Man,
you go get ahead of it this week.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Well, I won't be out there next week. I just
realized I won't be out there next week. Well you
go to the cruise, No, because I'm gonna be sick,
because you fucking got the shakes and your brittle and
you're feeling aches and pains, and that means that you
are breathing the damn air and spitting it across this
room where we are doing this podcast for the love
of sored Losers Nation, which means I will be down
(07:30):
and out next week. And I have come to realize
I better get my golf in today because next week
I will be in bed, curled up in the fetal position, brittle,
cold body shakes, aches. Oh here we come. Sign me up, honey,
I'm coming home. You're dying, that's what you said. You
said you're on the back porch shaking brittle and you
(07:51):
couldn't move, but you still swung the golf club.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
I was being dramatic.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
I'm not sick.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
There's something with my voice, and I've told my mom
and Boomer's been want to talk to me for a week,
I say, guys, I can't talk when I get home.
I'm still resting my voice. Maybe I can talk to
you guys in February.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
That's a good thing. That's a good plan. Man. You
really do need to rest your voice. You gotta get
a nasal spray. That's what they gave me. Yeah, I
got them.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
They make those ones now you snap them off and
you rub it all in the inside of your nostril.
It's almost like doing drugs, but it's a healthy kind.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
My wife is currently at Party City because they're closing,
so everything is really discanted. Do we want to get
these to replace this goals schools that we have. I
don't know how big they are. Party City. You got
clowns and balloons sitting around.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
For six months. I'm good on the two dollars extra
you better get there, actually get some Valentine's stuff. I
tell you what, guys, this is going to help you
out some of your truck drivers. Where you guys at?
Speaker 1 (08:51):
I tell them, why if I don't know how big
they are, You're showing me a box of something that
I can't tell how big they are. And I'm doing
a podcast. You're gonna have to make a decision.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Yeah, if she's gonna get the missed balloon blower upper,
it's usually forty if that's discounted, get that.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Oh, we don't can last forever. We don't do the
balloon bolwer uppers. I mean, that is just a cheap
way to decorate, easy, simple pop them up. My dad
he's got like twelve of them in his front yard now,
I mean.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
And he was.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
My mom was pissed because for Christmas, I've still got
to get back to my advice to truckers.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
But continue, Oh were you in the middle of advice?
You took me off to four different highways and byways. Dude,
I'm already Western Nashville. I'm trying to get back to Broadway.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Sorry, get back to Broadway.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Go truckers. Go on Instagram. There's about five different ideas.
They have their advertisements floating around. They're all phenomenal. You
can do them now and you'll get it by Valentine's Day.
Nobody does flowers anymore. There's a step up over to you.
Let's get back on your feet to road to your story.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Yeah, I was looking at the blow ups. I'm not
a big fan of them. I feel like they just
kind of look happy. Is man. So's a Colby. We
saw Caraway. He was getting on with one over at
the convention. You know, we saw that and there was
video proof, so he can't deny it. Kyle. It was
all about that thing.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
I just feel he was asking me she had never
heard of that. We talked about this on the Big Show,
the Fleshlight. Oh Abby never heard of that.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Oh well, and she didn't know is a real thing?
Speaker 2 (10:14):
Oh and I go, well, I'm pretty sure Arnold has one,
So yeah, it's real and guys use him.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Okay. Anyway, So my dad he was up for like
best decorations for Christmas in his neighborhood and my mom
was pissed.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
I got to remember that when he comes on, she said.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Because she's been decorating for years. And then the past
couple of years he started doing most of the decorations,
and she was like, all he does is get these
stupid blow ups, throws five of them out there, and
he gets nominated for Best Decorations. She's like, that's bullshit.
Five's the limit. They were huge too, And for Halloween though,
he has some witch that Batter's Box had to go
(10:53):
over and help him put up.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
One of our neighbors got twelve blow ups in the
front yard for crimsnutes. Looks like he touches kids.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Yeah, let's start the show man.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Oh what did Batter's Box help him with?
Speaker 1 (11:07):
He had to get on the ladder and they had
to hand like it was so big it needed two
people that the instructions online said three, but they manned
it with two.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
What if everybody that's a bat and I'll come over
and help you with your lights.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
I'll come help you with your Halloween decorations.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
That was nice to him. If you were still in town,
you would have.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Helped, Yeah, I probably would have, but I'd a live
farther away because I lived South Austin. When I lived
in Austin out of my parents' house. They live in
North Austin. It's a long drive, especially now there's so
many damn people, there's only two roads. It's hard to
get anywhere. That is tough.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
They'll be it away from the parents when they eat
help with stuff, you know.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Yeah, and it's hard to be away from the parents
when they have like birthday parties. And like when the
nieces and nephews have birthday parties and they, oh, we're
over it Batter's Box House for his kid's birthday. I'm like, oh,
cool man, I've never been to one of his birthday parties.
They quit sending me the invite. They used to send
us an imitation to the birthday parties. Now we don't
even get invited, Yeah, because they know we're not coming.
(12:02):
But that's we got it. Found work elsewhere, man, now.
And sometimes you gotta think, is it worth moving to
be away from your family? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (12:11):
Typically it is for the jobs the family. Typically work
moves you to different states and you just gotta go
with it.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Yeah, but don't you think I mean most jobs, most jobs,
you can find similar work in your city that you
were at, where your family is at, and you get
to spend all that time with your family. But hold on,
hold on, hold on, not to get deep.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
My father, we moved out of our original town because
he knew the mill was going to close. It closed.
It's a ghost town now. We moved out of Austin.
Didn't the radio station close.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
I'm not still there, but it's very it's it's like
a shell of itself, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Bones knew the radio station was going to close, so
we had to make these moves to a better life
for our family.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
I understand, like our job is different. I'm talking like,
if you work in an office, there has to be
another insurance company. If their insurance company is moving you
to Ohio, you know what I mean, Chilicothe, Ohio. You
have to assume that there could be another insurance job
in your city, that you could just stay there and
be close to your family. Because I think about that
(13:15):
a lot. But that's here nor there. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
When they said, hey, you want to move to Nashville
for the show, I go, dude, all I could think
of was the nightlife. It's got to be got awful.
Had no idea about Broadway.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Yeah, I didn't really know much about Nashville either.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Little did I know ten years after first setting Sail
and Trekking all the way to Nashville, that we would
have a convention on that said street that I'd never
heard of before. And guess what, the nightlight was lit
with our name. Who would have painted that picture I.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Had when I moved here, I had no idea we'd
be on a built a marquee on Broadway because they
didn't have marques when we moved here. It's so much
this place has changed.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
If we would have never left town, we would have
never had a marque in Austin, because guess what in Austin,
you got to be weird man, or you gotta be
Lance Armstrong, or you don't get a marquee, or you
gotta be Matthew McConaughey, Hey Texas, come on, boys, let's
go out there and play some football. Come on, clap
my hands, Clap my hands. Boys, let's play text football.
Oh we almost got to be by hers on State.
Come on, clap my hands, clap my.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Dick hook a man hook on.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
The sidelines, clapping their hands when they get out of
the game.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Dude, I tell you what the hell is this guy?
I mean, it's like one hundred degrees out there and
he's out there with his orange leather jacket. It's like good, Like,
can you like just put a UT shirt on and
some shorts?
Speaker 2 (14:31):
And when he motivates the team. He is an actor.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
He's playing a role. That's not he's an idiot. No,
he is, we are Marshall, he's an idiot. Like is
he an idiot? Yes?
Speaker 2 (14:44):
You just have this actor giving speeches. It's all act Hey,
come on, I'll right all right, out right, let's go
Texas football.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
It's all in. He's an actor. Get him off the sidelines.
Here's my question. I understand he's a huge actor. I
don't know what he's been in recently. I don't think
he's done a movie in fifteen years.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
Dallas Buyer's Club looked like he was on Ozempic before Ozempic.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
That was a long time ago. And I'm saying, I
don't know if he's even relevant to these eighteen seventeen,
eighteen year old kids that they're trying to recruit, that
nineteen year old twenty year olds that are playing football
at UT the University of Texas, that is, I don't
know if these kids really know who McConaughey is because
his movies. I don't know what you think they're sitting
(15:29):
around watching Failure to Launch. Now, So what's he been in?
Freaking wedding planner? Right?
Speaker 2 (15:37):
What's the one where he's me myself and Irene? What's
the one where he stays his buddy's house and he
doesn't have a job.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
To launch? Is that it? I don't know. I don't
know if I've ever seen that. I just know there's
one called failure to Launch, and I just know that's
what it's called.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
That might be it. There's one where he moves in.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
I'll look up him.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
He moves in with a husband and wife.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
It's because he doesn't have a job. Let me look
at it. And he lives on the in the.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Couch, dude, it's hilaris. He has a pillow for in
the living room and they go to their jobs and
he just stays and watches TV all day.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Uh. Trip, a thirty five year old professional layabout, is
happy to stay at home when he's waited on hand
and foot by his mom Sue. However, she and her
husband Al have had enough and decided to get him
to leave. They use the subtle methods, so they hire Paula,
who will use her feminine wires to him I know
(16:30):
what it is, Me, you and Dupree. Oh I've seen
that one, all right, Yeah, it's a couple. And then
do Pree. Hey, that's a funny movie. Me you and
Depris was a really but he's not in that one.
That's Owen Wilson and Matt Bill. Okay, Kate Hudson and
(16:53):
Seth Rogan's in there. Yeah, so you, me and Dupre
great movie, It is really funny. Really, we gotta start
the show the show Man.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
All right, we're.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
Gonna do.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
We?
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Oh the what two sore loser? What up? Everybody? I
am lunchbox. I know the most about sports, so I'll
give you the sports facts, my sports opinions, because I'm
pretty much a sports genius, y'all. It says.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
And I'm from the North, I'm in alpha male. I
met a girl on Broadway. Her name's baz Or. Didn't
even know Broadway existed before I moved here. And then
I said, Wow, they have a professional football team. Wow
they have a hockey team. Holy crap, Vanderbilts here. Oh,
and who's this blonde chick on Broadway. Now we live
in the country north of town. I drive about an
hour every day to work but you know what, I
do that for my family. We have two point two acres,
(17:44):
two point two kids at Vanderbilt Clinic, and I'm gonna
die of a heart attack when I'm seventy two point
two over to you, man, Man, I.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Just thought about this right now as you're talking about
Broadway and moving to the country. Your wife made a
bet with you at the live podcast at the convention. Well,
it's the t She all the the Lions had to
beat the Commanders and if the Lions won that day,
she got to get a dog and the Lions got
their ass kicked. I have to tell her. I just
I don't know what, like just looking at the screen.
(18:12):
Here we got these screens that has Broadway on them
and it says Broadway, and I'm like, I'm looking at it.
I'm like, oh my god, Bay doesn't get a dog.
We're gonna get cause because she was like, oh, what
if they just win, they go, you know, they're set
their nine point favorite. She goes, okay, if they cover
the spread. Well they didn't win, and they didn't cover
the spread, you were safe either way. So bad a
breaking news from the convention by does not get a
(18:36):
dog hitting you that you're an NBA champion, yet are
you so many time you hitting me a modellas. We'll
take a break, we'll be right back. I have a
serious question, man. We got back from basketball practice last night.
You know, the team after our twenty oh ass whooping
(18:57):
that we took this past Saturday. That one still a
set well with me. No, it's still un'tset well with
me either. It's been a rough few days going over
like what do we do wrong? What do we need
to improve on? So we have practice last night and
I get home and the Kansas Jayhawks, the awful Kansas Jayhawks,
my favorite team in the whole wide world. They're playing UCF.
(19:18):
And when we went to UCF, we beat them by
forty points. I mean we blew the doors off and
down there. I don't even where they're located, somewhere in Florida,
in Central Florida, I would assume because they're the University
of Central Florida. And I was thinking, oh, there's some
respect on their name. One of our sales ladies used
to go there. It's Orlando. Oh and it's UCF, right, yeah,
(19:39):
you see and kissing me. They were playing them last
night at Lawrence in the field house, and I'm like,
oh my god, this is going to.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Be a blowout, right, this is hollowed ground.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
And I get home from the freaking basketball practice and
I checked the score on my phone and Kansas is
down by seven points in the second half, and I
I said, what the is going? I told you this
team is so frustrating. We have so many good players
and we suck. Sure it wasn't a women's score. I
promise it won't the women's score. We're down seven, dude,
(20:10):
espen me get me with that. Every day now they
do the bottom line because it's equal rights. Dude, there's
a women's score, Like, holy shit, Michigan State lost by forty. Oh,
it's a women's score. That's a great point. They should
do it in different colors, like the women should be
in like green and yellow and the mint. It's very
confusing because if you just flipping on and you just
have it going by.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Oh, dude, it's every time what Michigan State lies do.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Club Auburn cut up.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Fucking women's again.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
And so I'm like, damn, So I got to put
the kids to bed, right, So they're brushing teeth, they're
getting ready for Ben all of a sudden, I'm like,
all right, cool, there's like thirteen minutes left in the game.
We brush teeth, we read one story because it's kind
of late when you get back from basketball practice, like
it's later than they usually go to bed. So put
them to bed and all right, night night. We'll give
(20:59):
them kisses.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Chix ween see spider the end. All right, Kansas ball.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Hey night, don't let the bed bugs by? Dad? What
are bed bugs? Asha? Never brought that up. I don't
have time for that right now. Guys, we're not gonna
talk about bed bugs or the least.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
You're worries.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Watch out for the monsters. Yeah, our bed bugs real, Dad, No, No,
they're not real. Don't worry about it. Just go to bed,
Go to bed, and go in the living room and
look at my phone and it's tied. Turn on a TV.
Throw the game on with a minute and forty one
to go, and I'm like, oh my god, I gotta
watch the last this. I gotta turn it on.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Honey.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
We haven't talked in two days.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
My wife, Are you want to do a check in?
See Howard? And I might? No, not right now, Kansas
is playing. I'm gonna do one in Lawrence. I'm a
games on. I'm gonna check in on ESPN A the
ESPN ap.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Yeah, I'm gonna FaceTime the basketball team on the Television'm
gonna'm gonna check them with Bill self and Hunter Dickinson
and all the boys and Laurence.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
See how we're doing. What's with you?
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Kansas and guys' names? Dick, you had Grady Dick and
you got Dickinson.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
You're right, we had big dicks. Go to freeze and
we got big dicks. Anyway, two dicks will do is
what we should make a sure and then have hundred
Dickinson and Grady Dick. I turn it on and it's
on ESPN three. So you gotta go to the app,
you know what I mean, the ESPN app. And I
don't know if the ESPN app is just terrible or
(22:17):
if it's my damn TV. Because I go to the app,
I hit ESPN and says, what do you want to watch?
And I go down one over to to the third
thing on the screen. It's Kansas UCF and I click
on it and I wait, I mean, were you waiting
for me to interject? And I wait and I wait, Oh,
(22:41):
there goes shows me one second, and then I wait,
and then I wait the last minute forty one seconds.
I never saw the end of the fucking game.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
The lagging and the streaming, the lagging and the streaming.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
It kept going backwards, like it would show me two seconds,
and then we go back to the very spot where
it started. Show me that same two seconds, go back
to where it started, show me that same two seconds.
I never saw the end of the game, and the
what parts I did see it was the gloriest thing
I ever saw. I don't know who had the ball.
(23:16):
I don't know who took the shot. I don't know
who fouled who. I don't know who's at the free
throw line. If it's our good free throw shooter, our
bad free throw shooter, I have no idea. And it
happens every time I tried to watch ESPN on the app,
the ESPN all the time, ESPN three, whatever it is,
it's ESPN plus ESPN plus thank you, that's what it's
(23:37):
damn called.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Canceled that shit six months, you know, and I've never
been happier.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
And I don't know if it's just my TV or
if the app is just the absolute biggest piece of shit.
But I am so frustrated and you want to talk
about the stupidest things pissing you off? Do you want
to talk about putting me in a bad mood? I
was so pissed after that. I was just like, how
can this suck so bad? Or how does our TV
(24:03):
suck so bad? So I need to know people? Is
it my TV? Or does ESPN plus the worst product
in the history of products?
Speaker 2 (24:13):
It brings back memories. ESPN Plus we had it with Justin.
He would come over and we'd bet on Shamanad and
he'd be like, listen, I'm telling you the Hokies or
something or they're called like the Schoolboys, the Shamanad Schoolboys.
I'm telling you plus seven Shamanad Squirrels. You're gonna want
to take it, and we'd watch you on ESPN three.
I don't really remember then if it's streamed good or not.
The streaming is comical that you bring that up. If
(24:34):
we do Bravo and my wife accidentally clicks on the
wrong screen, will go all right, we're gonna watch below
deck and she'll be like, oh my gosh, I just
clicked I actually hit the forward arrow. Oh nope, nope,
you hit the foward errow. Oh it, don't even let
it reload, just turn off for the night. We're not
even gonna watch it, dude, cause I don't feel like
going for two minutes clicking through screens. You got up
all the way, re rewind it and then hit play,
(24:56):
and then sometimes it will skip ahead to your spot.
Guys with streaming, you hit the wrong button, You're screwed
out of five minutes. I'm like, baser, I don't have it.
I'm going to bed.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
You hit the forward button. Oh no, oh, she hit
the wrong button. She hit throw them forget it, forget it,
and she's like, you know what, I'll wait for it
on my iPad. I'm just gonna watch it. I'm going
to bed. I don't have two minutes in me.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
I'm dude.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
The old school cable box wasn't like that. You hit
a button, it went to the damn channel.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
Man. You want to know what I found out for
the Kansas game last night that you CEF had called
a time out. You see calls the time out. Dawkins
has options you see have called a time OUTDS Dawkins
has options you see have called a time out Dawkins
has options.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
Who does that mean?
Speaker 1 (25:42):
I don't know. I never finished the sentence. That's all
they said. That's all I got. I got that replay
about ten times. You're like glitchy, like the TV is.
I could not figure out what options they had because
we never got to that point in the sequence. I
got to the causes out. Dawkins has options, and there's like,
(26:02):
I don't know, a minute and fourteen on the clock,
and I think Kansas was up by two at that point.
But all I know is you see called the time
out and Dawkins has options. There you go. That is
what I got out of the Kansas game last night.
And I wanted to throw the TV through the back
door and never see it again. But then I thought
(26:24):
to myself, that's irrational, and it's probably not your TV.
It's probably this ESPN Plus because it's the same damn
thing when I buy a UFC fight on there.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
The ESPN plus du plus says Strickland coming up in
two years. Oh my god, O to sign you this weekend.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
It is so annoying. And so at nine to twenty
eight last night, instead of watching something else, instead of
turning the channel, I just turned it off and went
to bed so pissed off. Dude, I'm glad you just
said UFC. That reminded me.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
I haven't been over to my neighbor's house in six months.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
That as the TV set in the theater sound. Yeah,
don't know.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
If the guy's alive and his wife doesn't bring her
tesla home anymore, I think they broke up.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
That's not good.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
I need warm weather so I can go to some
neighbor backyards and see what's been the goss is.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
I'm out of the loop. You're just reminding me. I
know she probably you know where she probably is at
someone's house that has ESPN Plus. That works because I
need to know from people out there. We are the
sore losers at gmail dot com. Does ESPN Plus just
suck when you stream it to your TV? It's just that.
Is that the only thing it is?
Speaker 2 (27:26):
And they're getting you about ten bucks a month.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Oh, they're getting my ass because I'm paying for it
because I'm like, oh yeah, that means I can watch
any Kansas game I want, even if it's not on TV. No.
All I can watch is UCF called a time out.
Dawkins has options. That's what I got from the game
and I did look up to score. We won ninety
one eighty seven.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
If you got a volleyball player that goes to UCLA
and she's a woman, you can watch it on ESPN. Plus.
It's red for off the TV scores and sports you'd
never see anywhere else, but it can't watch it. It's
also good for golf.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
Now do you actually get to see it or do
you only get to see like half a second and
it rewind half a second rewind. I just cannot figure
it out, and I need to know because if it's
my TV, I will go out and buy a new TV.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Well, I'm because of that slow and lagging and gagging
and all the things. That's why I stop live betting.
I don't do it anymore. Dude, I'm on an iPad.
So you think your TV's delayed, My iPad's delayed by
three seconds. So what do you think happens when a
bet gets and when a game is going on. I
get the worst possible line you could bet on, and
they let me place the bet.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Guess we're gonna let you take it?
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Wwhich is four points by the time the bet goes in.
I'm done live betting. It's between my slow iPad, my
internet's fast beser has it for a work, my slow cable,
my streaming service, my slow betting app. All that equates
to me getting one point five points and it doesn't
matter it's under three. It all came full circle. That
(28:54):
is my conspiracy theory. Though. I think by the time
these betting apps are letting us bet live, they're giving
us the worst possible line.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
Well, they're not going to give you the best possible line.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Well, back in the day with Bovada, you could always
you'd get at least two or three points. If a
guy made a three, it'd shooted up three points and
you'd bet the under immediately and he would let you
bet these Oh processing processing, BET's getting worse for him,
that's getting.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Worse for him. Allowed, BET's allowed.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Oh great, the guy just drained two three pointers for
the other team. Oh the bet got placed though, we're
in luck, but I'm now down twenty points.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
Well, if you wanted to watch it on ESPN Plus
and you'll think you're getting a great line because it's
just paused the whole damn time. Oh my god. He
was so frustrating, and my wife's like you don't want
to watch someone else, Like, no, I'm going to bed.
I'm going to bed, Like if you want to watch something,
you watch them, I'm going upstairs. I can't do it.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
I can't say I'm watching the Bachelor. And the guy's
proposed six times.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
And then they broke up six months later, and he
dated the girl that he picked second, and then they
broke up and he went with the girl that was
in third place, and then they broke up and he
went for the girl that was in fourth place. Now
they're getting married. I think the show's back. Seriously, two
dudes really, and then whatever and then like the girl
you know, and then all.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
The whole group of guys. We're actually watching the fake one.
There's two dudes now, so I guess we're watching the
fake one. What is it called, uh, Charmed, Unearthed, simple Life, enchanted.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Enchanted, let me check that out.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
It's been out forever. But maybe it's a new season.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
We're watching all they have a new I watched I
think the first season.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
They basically give you all the hot guys from Bachelor
without saying it's from Bachelor. They basically say everything's all fake.
The producers produce everything. Yeah, people are fed drinks and
all that. I mean, it's I know, I.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
Think the person that wrote and worked for them or
in some former fashion. Yes, uh, it's not called enchanting.
Let me see fake Bachelor.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
Show producers all bagging each other.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Yeah. Sure.
Speaker 2 (30:50):
The one guy on staff was sad that the Bachelor
found somebody because he was actually the bachelor.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Unreal is that what you're watching?
Speaker 2 (30:58):
The show is enchanted, but it's unreal.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
Yeah. It stars reality producer Yeah okay. Unreal is an
American drama television series that premiered on Lifetime in twenty fifteen. Uh.
It was inspired by Shapiro's award winning independent shortfit What
the Hell? Plot? Producer Rachel Golberg returns to Everlasting. Everlasting, Yes,
(31:26):
there you go. All right, I'm glad we got to
the bottom of that. Man. Yeah, all right, we're gonna
take a break. We'll be right back. Had a tough
situation at the house. Got a divorce. It wasn't a divorce,
(31:49):
but it was close. My wife before me that baby
box has that birthday party at the same time as
our basketball game this coming Saturday. Sure, and she said,
what do we do? He said, it's a kid from
his class, one of his buddies. And I'm like, yeah,
is it one of his bros? It's one of his bros.
(32:11):
I said. The problem is he has a basketball game,
and when he decided to sign up for basketball, he
made a commitment to that team. He'll be at the
basketball game. She says, well, if you think about it,
we're the ones that signed him up, so shouldn't we
give him the choice what he wants to do. And
(32:32):
I'm like, oh, because Larry's mom keeps asking is he
coming to the birthday party? Because he coming to the
birthday party, let me, I said, let me think on that,
Let me think on that, let me let me. Let
me figure out what we need to do here. And
I was dead set on making him go to the
basketball game. And I texted my sister and I said, hey, baby,
(32:53):
Box has a basketball game on Saturday and a birthday
party at the exact same time. What do I do?
Sister replies, you went with a lifeline. I went with
a lifeline because maybe I'm being irrational fifty to fifty,
maybe a crowd decision. Maybe I am making a bad
decision based on my beliefs in like forcing him to
(33:14):
do what I want him to do. Take to your values, man.
So I text my sister and she replies, oh, I
mean once he signed up for basketball, he has a
commitment to the team. And I was like, yeah. I
was like, because my wife wants to let him choose,
and she goes, Ahtually, that's kind of a good option too,
because I mean he is only six, and I mean
(33:34):
does the basketball game really matter? And maybe he really
wants to go to the kid's birthday party. I'm like,
oh my gosh. So getting into bed the other night,
I tell my wife, I said, you know what, just
ask him in the morning. Just ask him in the
morning what he wants to do.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
Wakey, wakey, what you want to do.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
I don't want to force it on him, I said.
I am in the belief that he should go to
the basketball game. But I'm but you have this one.
You go ahead and ask him, all right, Papovich, Hey,
come on, Pavivich, we need you back, man. And I
don't know if I want dearon Fox. I don't know
if I want the spurs of trade for him.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
Who's getting Jimmy buckets?
Speaker 1 (34:11):
Oh, I don't know why you'd wanted me. He's thirty
five year old. It doesn't seem like he has a
good attitude right now. He'll probably go to Minnesota. Why not?
Speaker 2 (34:24):
Still nobody besides Thunder or Celtics going to the finals.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
I agree with that. Anyway, all the Rockets been pretty
damn good. Rockets look pretty good. I don't know if
you've watched you Rockets basketball. They're pretty fun to watch.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
I just when I hear Rockets, I just think of Houston.
Didn't then they look exactly like the college team.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
Yeah? Good, really good. Uh So, anyway, my wife sending
to breakfast with the sun Baby Box, like, hey, Bud,
you got Larry's birthday party this Saturday. He goes, Oh,
I can't wait. I can't wait. She goes, the only
problem is you have your basketball game at the same time.
Here we go plot and he was like, well, Larry
(35:04):
right on enchanted, he said, Larry told me his his
birthday party was ten hours, so I can go whenever
I want. And my wife's like, well, no, no, it
may his birthday may be all day, but his birthday
party is a two hour window and the party starts
at ten and your basketball game starts at ten thirty
(35:25):
so it's like right in the middle, so you wouldn't
be able to go. And he takes a bite of
his cereal Lucky Charms, takes a drink as his milk.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
I always eat the Lucky Charms last, eat the grains first, dad.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
And he said, like uncle Bobby, he said, Mom, I
want to go to my basketball game. He goes, I'm
gonna go to my basketball game because I like sports
more than I like a birthday party. Yeah's my boy.
That is my boy. That's him, that is my boy.
That is my kid. Honey, me a compleanixt. Oh my goodness,
(36:05):
I've never been so proud of my kid in my life.
Speaker 2 (36:07):
What a big moment at the breakfast table. You got
your newspaper out, shedding a tear, eggs and baky wife's
wearing no bra.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
What a hell of a morning. I mean, what a moment, honey.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
Would you like to discuss this one upstairs?
Speaker 1 (36:20):
Kids? If there's banging, I'm gonna be hammering. I'm not
sure many six year olds would make the most beautiful
decision of their life and say I like sports more
than I like birthday parties. I want to go to
my basketball game. I mean, you want to talk about
just I'm over.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
The moon, dude, And this reminds me of everything in
my childhood. I never got to go to these birthday parties.
My dad would take us to practices, take us to church.
They would drop us off at a birthday party like
the last thirty minutes. So when we would get there,
they'd be no cake, the confetti'd be everywhere, the kids
would be dicking around in the front yard, and parents
would be picking up the kids, and we'd drop off
(37:01):
Happy birthday, and then I'm ten minutes later we got
back in the car. So we never really got to
go to the birthday parties because we always had prior obligations.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
Yeah, I mean we this is the first like game
birthday party conflict we've had, and we passed it with
flying colors.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
You know, there's like a birthday party mule, and the
mules already shit all over the front yard. They've already
taken the mule back in.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
Hey, we brought this like little. I mean, it looks
like freaking it hadn't been. It looks so madded and nasty,
and it's like, oh, we got a petting zooon. It's
like that looks like a homeless animal you picked up
on the side of the road and kids are petting
in it's supposed to be cute, and it stinks like shit.
It's like, what kind of idea was this? Yeah, that
tells me there's a market. And guess what, there's another market.
Speaker 2 (37:43):
When was the last time you went to a kid's
birthday party where there was a band that played exactly,
we need to go around and play kids' birthdays parties.
They don't know what good music is You me and Arnold.
Speaker 1 (37:54):
Yeah, we could do that. There is this guy, Steve,
He plays around town and he does go to kids
birthday parties. He's really good. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (38:01):
There's just a market for entertaining kids. There's still petting
zoos and bounce houses and it's a massive All these
birthday parties you go to. It sounds like the untapped market.
Speaker 1 (38:15):
Birthday parties, bachelorette parties, those are where we missed the boat.
We should have been in those businesses with merchandise a
long time ago.
Speaker 2 (38:22):
I already told you about bj BJ had my buddy
lived at Encore where we went people were taking pisses
and where the party tractor picked up Yep. BJ lives
there Penthouse high Rise. He knew in twenty thirteen he
had a boatload of money and he had two options.
Invest in the tourism industry in Nashville or invest in
photo reflect those machines you put up at weddings and
(38:44):
they take pictures, Yeah, and then you print them out
and give them to the people. He chose the wedding
route with the photo reflect company ended up folding. Baser
at one point worked those events for him. She would
stand by the machine, help people with the pictures.
Speaker 1 (38:59):
Oh. He said it was one way or the other,
and he chose that way.
Speaker 2 (39:03):
He'd said he did make some money, but he ended
up just selling it because it wasn't lucrative enough to
keep doing it every weekend. Yeah, he said he should
have gone Nashville tourism industry. I mean it blew in mushrooms.
Since then it's blown up and he would have probably
gotten a party tractor or a hot tub boat and
done it up and down Broadway.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
It was that decision, just like your kid, just like
my kid. In a full circle. He made a great decision.
So last night at practice, I've never been happier. I
just had a smile on my face the whole time.
And let me tell you what we worked on. We
worked on rebounding, crashing the boards. I taught them to, hey,
when the ball goes up, put your hands up, catch
it before it bounces. And then also we worked on
offense and defense. I mean I lined them up on
(39:43):
It's a game called Animal. So we have nine kids,
and you line them up across from each other. You
two are one, You two are number two, You two
are number three. Youtubo a number four kid over here
on the end, you're number five. We'll find you an opponent.
And I would throw it up off the backboard and
two and the two kids that are number two would
(40:04):
run out to it. First one to get the ball
is on offense, the other one's on defense.
Speaker 2 (40:08):
That's good.
Speaker 1 (40:10):
And I taught him how to stay in front of
their man. I said, if you just keep your hands up,
you will give up no baskets. No one will be
able to shoot over you. Guys. Teach him to flop
like bron I did and Kelsey and Mahomes. It was awesome.
It was a great practice, dude. Then we played some
red light green light. We played freeze tag. They wanted
to play Duck duck goose, but we did not play
(40:31):
Duck duck goose. That was a great day. That was
a big decision for your kid.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
He's got another really big one important one coming up
in life, but that, for now is the biggest decision
of his life.
Speaker 1 (40:41):
Yeah, it was very good. So yeah, right, it's the
other one that was my that's my update on youth basketball.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
Read.
Speaker 1 (40:48):
Really looking forward to get out in there and get
our winning streak going this weekend. Still don't have our jerseys.
I mean, we're about to be our third game in
out of six and our jerseys have not arrived, so
I don't know if they're ever coming.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
Dude, we could have sponsored, man.
Speaker 1 (41:00):
We could have, but I do want to read this. Man.
I got it some in the mail lunchbox. You have
been my favorite on the show since I was in
middle school. I'm coming to Nashville for Valentine's weekend for
my bachelorette party, and I'd love the chance to meet you.
Shots and drinks on me from Cassidy. So Cassidy is
marrying Luke and Gibbon Georgia. Formal invitation to follow.
Speaker 2 (41:25):
I'm guessing it's a ranch style.
Speaker 1 (41:27):
I'm gonna assume. Yeah, it's March twenty ninth is when
the wedding is.
Speaker 2 (41:32):
So basically, you can go castle version, you can go ranch,
or let's just say business casual at a nice venue.
Those are really the three options. Lunch went, you went
big band church. Actually that's another option. Yeah, we did that,
we went country church. Yep, she sounds like she's going ranch.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
Yeah, she sounds like she's going ranch from Gibbon, Georgia. So,
Cassie and Luke, congratulations Cassie. I don't know. I may
make it out that weekend Valentine's Day. It's a busy
time for me.
Speaker 2 (42:01):
Dude.
Speaker 1 (42:01):
They got this one.
Speaker 2 (42:02):
I cut through when I go to the pizza place
where there's maybe four ranch houses, and they all come
to the barn for the wedding and the reception, and
then after it they go sleep in the four ranch houses.
Speaker 1 (42:12):
That's cool. Out in the middle of a pasture with
a bunch of cows. That's really cool, phenomenal love it.
I'm like, do I have to get married?
Speaker 2 (42:18):
Can I just go stand one of those?
Speaker 1 (42:20):
That's pretty cool?
Speaker 2 (42:20):
They said, no, Oh, some weddings only.
Speaker 1 (42:23):
Got it all right, guys, have a good Winnesday, You
got anything betting line, it's still at minus one and
a half.
Speaker 2 (42:28):
Guys, there's no race to try and bet this one
because in football it's threes and sevens. Anything less than
a three doesn't matter. Doesn't matter right now in Michigan State,
I said, they're hotter.
Speaker 1 (42:39):
And shit, they're playing really well.
Speaker 2 (42:40):
They're playing really well. They're team basketball. I think they
make a run at the final four. My money's all
in on Alabama Final four if Auburn. Auburn returned everybody,
and Kentucky returned nobody. Alabama returned to a lot of people,
and Houston returned to a lot of people. I saw something
all about tea basketball and returning people.
Speaker 1 (43:01):
Yeah, Kansas there and there's not good. Don't don't bet
on them. But yeah, guys, we're getting out here because
I gotta go to the I got a local MUNI.
It's fifty five degrees outside. I gotta get. We gotta go.
People aren't gonna be all pissed because we bailed. I mean,
we gotta go. Man, we don't get this weather very
often in the middle of January. Oh Man, golf, golf, golf, Let's.
Speaker 2 (43:21):
Go Antonio sitting on the patio. I mean, I was shaken,
but dude, it was just a blissful ten minutes I
was out there.
Speaker 1 (43:27):
I'm Batman.
You want to know my pet peeve?
Speaker 2 (00:02):
What whether it's you? Can you hear me?
Speaker 1 (00:06):
I can hear you? Can you hear me? Oh?
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Someone's wrong on my headphones? Yo?
Speaker 1 (00:11):
Yeah? Yo yeah yo yo yo? What bothers me? You?
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Just then when we talk about football lines and it's
under a field goal, when it's the number two or
the number one, about the betting line, guys, that doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
What does matter? It doesn't? Okay? Why does it not matter?
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Because a three football is in increments of three and seven.
Anything less than three doesn't damn matter? When was the
last team? A team won by two points? And I'll
hang up and listen. Where's my remote?
Speaker 1 (00:47):
I'll hang up and listen.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
How many NFL games games in twenty twenty four we're
decided by less than three points?
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Okay? As of October well that's October first, thanks uh.
As of October first, twenty twenty four, fourteen NFL games
in the twenty twenty four season we're decided by three
points or fewer, so quite a few.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
My point is this, Scoring in hockey is by ones.
The betting line is by ones. Scoring in basketball is one,
twos and threes. Correct scoring in football largely is threes
and seven. So football threes and six is the most
most unique of all the sports in that a betting
line under three doesn't damn matter. So when you got
(01:48):
guys in the office waiting for a betting line to move, guys,
it's that minus one and a half. It can move
in the other direction and still be well under three.
It could even go in that in the chief favor
and not in their favor. But go minus two and
a half. It's still under three. This betting line, there
is no rush to get after. You can wait up
until Super Bowl Sunday. It ain't moving past three.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Oh, I agree with you one hundred percent. I'm not
worried about it. I'm not rushing out to bet it.
I'm not worried about it. I don't know I would bet.
Ninety nine percent of our audience doesn't even bet.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
And the people that are betting it, guys don't even
mess with the minuses. You just go money line because
it's under three. So you do money line unless you're
that confident the Chiefs are gonna win. Then you take
the mind that you'll get a little bit more money back. Yeah,
but largely it's just a money line bet it's under three.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
Ye, even if you're betting on the Eagles take the
money line.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Hey, man, do you think I should go plus one
and a half Eagles or Eagles to win? Crazy thought? Here,
just go Eagles to win the plus one and a half. Well,
they could lose by one and you could actually still
win the bet.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Yeah, but the odds of that happening are very slim. Yes,
very very slim, unless it's they score a touchdown, they
missed the extra point, then it's seven to six and
the game's over. Then you're kicking yourself. But do we
really think it's gonna be seven to six? No?
Speaker 2 (03:10):
And I wanted to say this. We got unbelievable compliments
about the live pod and then the follow up pod,
which we took a week to recover and reheal from.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
We did, and now it sounds like you're going downhill.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
No, no, no, I'm on the way uphill. Man, I'm
climbing up the appalation. You sound like shit, No, no,
I'm not on the back side of the mountain.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
I wish you would tell me the truth because I
hear you and I'm like, oh my god, Ray's about
to be sick.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
No, I'm good.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I'm taking all the stuff.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
I got the musin X, I got the nighttime stuff,
the daytime stuff, I got some little cough serup, I'm
gonna hit on the way home.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Man.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
It kind of picks you up a little bit, you know,
and then you get behind the wheel.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
I'm kidding.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
There's no al calling it. You're totally fine to drive
on it. But my point is this, those were our
two best podcasts. People are saying of the year.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Yeah, Josh, he said, you guys Live Pod and Convention
Recap Pod has got to be my favorite of all time.
Well done, coachers, Thanks Josh.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
He got.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Oh, I'm on the back end of this one, man.
I can tell, man, I can tell you're sounding great
because here's what I'm gonna do today, man, Because it's
sunshine and beautiful in Nashville. It is like fifty three degrees. Muty,
you know, you know. I got the sticks out of
(04:27):
the closet. I got the sticks out of the closet.
I got a hat and I got a shirt in
the car, and I am going to go to the
local muny.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Don't be one of those golfers that's just hitting leaves
at his yard because he's that addicted to golf.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Oh No, this is one of those days where I
feel like the golf course is going to be absolutely packed,
because this is the nicest day we've had in the
last three weeks to a month. So everybody in their
mom that has sticks in their closet or their car,
their garage, or in their basement or in their cellar
or in their shed, they have got the duster and
(05:07):
they dusting them suckers off, and it is gonna be
jam packed out there. But I'm hoping that it is
a Wednesday Wednesday afternoon and everybody has a freaking job
and it'll be smooth the sailing for me and my
clubs and my balls and my teas.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
You don't want the line to be too long on
me and Justin have dealt for it with it. You
go through the five beers already and you get to
the first hole and say, uh yeah, we're gonna need
a refill because we're already out.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
It's rough. When it's a long line and you have
to wait twenty minutes in between shots, You're like, this
is not the PGA Tour. I do not need to
be waiting twenty minutes. Every shot I'm hitting. That makes
a miserable day at golf. And when it's such a
beautiful day, you don't want to be just sitting there
for five hours. I am hoping it is a Wednesday.
I can get in and out in three and a
(05:59):
hal a half hours and we move on with our lives.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
And what you're talking about is now we're into the fifties,
and I saw for Nashville the foreseeable future.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
We're in the sixties, dude, I saw on next week's sixties.
So I've already decided what day Am I gonna try
to dust the sticks off next week? Right? But oh
my gosh, are we headed to spring back?
Speaker 2 (06:18):
You are the trailblazer in your own mind. I was
blazing yesterday, not that kind, oh weed Bomber from Fantasy League.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
I was blazing yesterday.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
It was forty out, and Bazer said, you want to
go on the patio, and so I got by blanket.
I was shaken. I had my musin X, I had
my electrolytes, I had my cough syrup, I had my
cough drops, and I got it on the patio and
I sat on that patio. Damn it shaken, and I said,
it's beautiful out and Baser goes, that's the first time
(06:49):
the sun has touched my face in four weeks. And
I was out there. Guess what I got the stick out.
I didn't have that good of a swing man. When
you're all got the shakes that you feel brittle, you
can't really speak. I think I missed the ball entirely
on the back patio. So I'll be out there next week. Man,
you go get ahead of it this week.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Well, I won't be out there next week. I just
realized I won't be out there next week. Well you
go to the cruise, No, because I'm gonna be sick,
because you fucking got the shakes and your brittle and
you're feeling aches and pains, and that means that you
are breathing the damn air and spitting it across this
room where we are doing this podcast for the love
of sored Losers Nation, which means I will be down
(07:30):
and out next week. And I have come to realize
I better get my golf in today because next week
I will be in bed, curled up in the fetal position, brittle,
cold body shakes, aches. Oh here we come. Sign me up, honey,
I'm coming home. You're dying, that's what you said. You
said you're on the back porch shaking brittle and you
(07:51):
couldn't move, but you still swung the golf club.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
I was being dramatic.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
I'm not sick.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
There's something with my voice, and I've told my mom
and Boomer's been want to talk to me for a week,
I say, guys, I can't talk when I get home.
I'm still resting my voice. Maybe I can talk to
you guys in February.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
That's a good thing. That's a good plan. Man. You
really do need to rest your voice. You gotta get
a nasal spray. That's what they gave me. Yeah, I
got them.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
They make those ones now you snap them off and
you rub it all in the inside of your nostril.
It's almost like doing drugs, but it's a healthy kind.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
My wife is currently at Party City because they're closing,
so everything is really discanted. Do we want to get
these to replace this goals schools that we have. I
don't know how big they are. Party City. You got
clowns and balloons sitting around.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
For six months. I'm good on the two dollars extra
you better get there, actually get some Valentine's stuff. I
tell you what, guys, this is going to help you
out some of your truck drivers. Where you guys at?
Speaker 1 (08:51):
I tell them, why if I don't know how big
they are, You're showing me a box of something that
I can't tell how big they are. And I'm doing
a podcast. You're gonna have to make a decision.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Yeah, if she's gonna get the missed balloon blower upper,
it's usually forty if that's discounted, get that.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Oh, we don't can last forever. We don't do the
balloon bolwer uppers. I mean, that is just a cheap
way to decorate, easy, simple pop them up. My dad
he's got like twelve of them in his front yard now,
I mean.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
And he was.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
My mom was pissed because for Christmas, I've still got
to get back to my advice to truckers.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
But continue, Oh were you in the middle of advice?
You took me off to four different highways and byways. Dude,
I'm already Western Nashville. I'm trying to get back to Broadway.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Sorry, get back to Broadway.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Go truckers. Go on Instagram. There's about five different ideas.
They have their advertisements floating around. They're all phenomenal. You
can do them now and you'll get it by Valentine's Day.
Nobody does flowers anymore. There's a step up over to you.
Let's get back on your feet to road to your story.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Yeah, I was looking at the blow ups. I'm not
a big fan of them. I feel like they just
kind of look happy. Is man. So's a Colby. We
saw Caraway. He was getting on with one over at
the convention. You know, we saw that and there was
video proof, so he can't deny it. Kyle. It was
all about that thing.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
I just feel he was asking me she had never
heard of that. We talked about this on the Big Show,
the Fleshlight. Oh Abby never heard of that.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Oh well, and she didn't know is a real thing?
Speaker 2 (10:14):
Oh and I go, well, I'm pretty sure Arnold has one,
So yeah, it's real and guys use him.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Okay. Anyway, So my dad he was up for like
best decorations for Christmas in his neighborhood and my mom
was pissed.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
I got to remember that when he comes on, she said.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Because she's been decorating for years. And then the past
couple of years he started doing most of the decorations,
and she was like, all he does is get these
stupid blow ups, throws five of them out there, and
he gets nominated for Best Decorations. She's like, that's bullshit.
Five's the limit. They were huge too, And for Halloween though,
he has some witch that Batter's Box had to go
(10:53):
over and help him put up.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
One of our neighbors got twelve blow ups in the
front yard for crimsnutes. Looks like he touches kids.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Yeah, let's start the show man.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Oh what did Batter's Box help him with?
Speaker 1 (11:07):
He had to get on the ladder and they had
to hand like it was so big it needed two
people that the instructions online said three, but they manned
it with two.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
What if everybody that's a bat and I'll come over
and help you with your lights.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
I'll come help you with your Halloween decorations.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
That was nice to him. If you were still in town,
you would have.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Helped, Yeah, I probably would have, but I'd a live
farther away because I lived South Austin. When I lived
in Austin out of my parents' house. They live in
North Austin. It's a long drive, especially now there's so
many damn people, there's only two roads. It's hard to
get anywhere. That is tough.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
They'll be it away from the parents when they eat
help with stuff, you know.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Yeah, and it's hard to be away from the parents
when they have like birthday parties. And like when the
nieces and nephews have birthday parties and they, oh, we're
over it Batter's Box House for his kid's birthday. I'm like, oh,
cool man, I've never been to one of his birthday parties.
They quit sending me the invite. They used to send
us an imitation to the birthday parties. Now we don't
even get invited, Yeah, because they know we're not coming.
(12:02):
But that's we got it. Found work elsewhere, man, now.
And sometimes you gotta think, is it worth moving to
be away from your family? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (12:11):
Typically it is for the jobs the family. Typically work
moves you to different states and you just gotta go
with it.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Yeah, but don't you think I mean most jobs, most jobs,
you can find similar work in your city that you
were at, where your family is at, and you get
to spend all that time with your family. But hold on,
hold on, hold on, not to get deep.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
My father, we moved out of our original town because
he knew the mill was going to close. It closed.
It's a ghost town now. We moved out of Austin.
Didn't the radio station close.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
I'm not still there, but it's very it's it's like
a shell of itself, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Bones knew the radio station was going to close, so
we had to make these moves to a better life
for our family.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
I understand, like our job is different. I'm talking like,
if you work in an office, there has to be
another insurance company. If their insurance company is moving you
to Ohio, you know what I mean, Chilicothe, Ohio. You
have to assume that there could be another insurance job
in your city, that you could just stay there and
be close to your family. Because I think about that
(13:15):
a lot. But that's here nor there. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
When they said, hey, you want to move to Nashville
for the show, I go, dude, all I could think
of was the nightlife. It's got to be got awful.
Had no idea about Broadway.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Yeah, I didn't really know much about Nashville either.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Little did I know ten years after first setting Sail
and Trekking all the way to Nashville, that we would
have a convention on that said street that I'd never
heard of before. And guess what, the nightlight was lit
with our name. Who would have painted that picture I.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Had when I moved here, I had no idea we'd
be on a built a marquee on Broadway because they
didn't have marques when we moved here. It's so much
this place has changed.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
If we would have never left town, we would have
never had a marque in Austin, because guess what in Austin,
you got to be weird man, or you gotta be
Lance Armstrong, or you don't get a marquee, or you
gotta be Matthew McConaughey, Hey Texas, come on, boys, let's
go out there and play some football. Come on, clap
my hands, Clap my hands. Boys, let's play text football.
Oh we almost got to be by hers on State.
Come on, clap my hands, clap my.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Dick hook a man hook on.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
The sidelines, clapping their hands when they get out of
the game.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Dude, I tell you what the hell is this guy?
I mean, it's like one hundred degrees out there and
he's out there with his orange leather jacket. It's like good, Like,
can you like just put a UT shirt on and
some shorts?
Speaker 2 (14:31):
And when he motivates the team. He is an actor.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
He's playing a role. That's not he's an idiot. No,
he is, we are Marshall, he's an idiot. Like is
he an idiot? Yes?
Speaker 2 (14:44):
You just have this actor giving speeches. It's all act Hey,
come on, I'll right all right, out right, let's go
Texas football.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
It's all in. He's an actor. Get him off the sidelines.
Here's my question. I understand he's a huge actor. I
don't know what he's been in recently. I don't think
he's done a movie in fifteen years.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
Dallas Buyer's Club looked like he was on Ozempic before Ozempic.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
That was a long time ago. And I'm saying, I
don't know if he's even relevant to these eighteen seventeen,
eighteen year old kids that they're trying to recruit, that
nineteen year old twenty year olds that are playing football
at UT the University of Texas, that is, I don't
know if these kids really know who McConaughey is because
his movies. I don't know what you think they're sitting
(15:29):
around watching Failure to Launch. Now, So what's he been in?
Freaking wedding planner? Right?
Speaker 2 (15:37):
What's the one where he's me myself and Irene? What's
the one where he stays his buddy's house and he
doesn't have a job.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
To launch? Is that it? I don't know. I don't
know if I've ever seen that. I just know there's
one called failure to Launch, and I just know that's
what it's called.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
That might be it. There's one where he moves in.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
I'll look up him.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
He moves in with a husband and wife.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
It's because he doesn't have a job. Let me look
at it. And he lives on the in the.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Couch, dude, it's hilaris. He has a pillow for in
the living room and they go to their jobs and
he just stays and watches TV all day.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Uh. Trip, a thirty five year old professional layabout, is
happy to stay at home when he's waited on hand
and foot by his mom Sue. However, she and her
husband Al have had enough and decided to get him
to leave. They use the subtle methods, so they hire Paula,
who will use her feminine wires to him I know
(16:30):
what it is, Me, you and Dupree. Oh I've seen
that one, all right, Yeah, it's a couple. And then
do Pree. Hey, that's a funny movie. Me you and
Depris was a really but he's not in that one.
That's Owen Wilson and Matt Bill. Okay, Kate Hudson and
(16:53):
Seth Rogan's in there. Yeah, so you, me and Dupre
great movie, It is really funny. Really, we gotta start
the show the show Man.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
All right, we're.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
Gonna do.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
We?
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Oh the what two sore loser? What up? Everybody? I
am lunchbox. I know the most about sports, so I'll
give you the sports facts, my sports opinions, because I'm
pretty much a sports genius, y'all. It says.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
And I'm from the North, I'm in alpha male. I
met a girl on Broadway. Her name's baz Or. Didn't
even know Broadway existed before I moved here. And then
I said, Wow, they have a professional football team. Wow
they have a hockey team. Holy crap, Vanderbilts here. Oh,
and who's this blonde chick on Broadway. Now we live
in the country north of town. I drive about an
hour every day to work but you know what, I
do that for my family. We have two point two acres,
(17:44):
two point two kids at Vanderbilt Clinic, and I'm gonna
die of a heart attack when I'm seventy two point
two over to you, man, Man, I.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Just thought about this right now as you're talking about
Broadway and moving to the country. Your wife made a
bet with you at the live podcast at the convention. Well,
it's the t She all the the Lions had to
beat the Commanders and if the Lions won that day,
she got to get a dog and the Lions got
their ass kicked. I have to tell her. I just
I don't know what, like just looking at the screen.
(18:12):
Here we got these screens that has Broadway on them
and it says Broadway, and I'm like, I'm looking at it.
I'm like, oh my god, Bay doesn't get a dog.
We're gonna get cause because she was like, oh, what
if they just win, they go, you know, they're set
their nine point favorite. She goes, okay, if they cover
the spread. Well they didn't win, and they didn't cover
the spread, you were safe either way. So bad a
breaking news from the convention by does not get a
(18:36):
dog hitting you that you're an NBA champion, yet are
you so many time you hitting me a modellas. We'll
take a break, we'll be right back. I have a
serious question, man. We got back from basketball practice last night.
You know, the team after our twenty oh ass whooping
(18:57):
that we took this past Saturday. That one still a
set well with me. No, it's still un'tset well with
me either. It's been a rough few days going over
like what do we do wrong? What do we need
to improve on? So we have practice last night and
I get home and the Kansas Jayhawks, the awful Kansas Jayhawks,
my favorite team in the whole wide world. They're playing UCF.
(19:18):
And when we went to UCF, we beat them by
forty points. I mean we blew the doors off and
down there. I don't even where they're located, somewhere in Florida,
in Central Florida, I would assume because they're the University
of Central Florida. And I was thinking, oh, there's some
respect on their name. One of our sales ladies used
to go there. It's Orlando. Oh and it's UCF, right, yeah,
(19:39):
you see and kissing me. They were playing them last
night at Lawrence in the field house, and I'm like,
oh my god, this is going to.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Be a blowout, right, this is hollowed ground.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
And I get home from the freaking basketball practice and
I checked the score on my phone and Kansas is
down by seven points in the second half, and I
I said, what the is going? I told you this
team is so frustrating. We have so many good players
and we suck. Sure it wasn't a women's score. I
promise it won't the women's score. We're down seven, dude,
(20:10):
espen me get me with that. Every day now they
do the bottom line because it's equal rights. Dude, there's
a women's score, Like, holy shit, Michigan State lost by forty. Oh,
it's a women's score. That's a great point. They should
do it in different colors, like the women should be
in like green and yellow and the mint. It's very
confusing because if you just flipping on and you just
have it going by.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Oh, dude, it's every time what Michigan State lies do.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Club Auburn cut up.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Fucking women's again.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
And so I'm like, damn, So I got to put
the kids to bed, right, So they're brushing teeth, they're
getting ready for Ben all of a sudden, I'm like,
all right, cool, there's like thirteen minutes left in the game.
We brush teeth, we read one story because it's kind
of late when you get back from basketball practice, like
it's later than they usually go to bed. So put
them to bed and all right, night night. We'll give
(20:59):
them kisses.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Chix ween see spider the end. All right, Kansas ball.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Hey night, don't let the bed bugs by? Dad? What
are bed bugs? Asha? Never brought that up. I don't
have time for that right now. Guys, we're not gonna
talk about bed bugs or the least.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
You're worries.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Watch out for the monsters. Yeah, our bed bugs real, Dad, No, No,
they're not real. Don't worry about it. Just go to bed,
Go to bed, and go in the living room and
look at my phone and it's tied. Turn on a TV.
Throw the game on with a minute and forty one
to go, and I'm like, oh my god, I gotta
watch the last this. I gotta turn it on.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Honey.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
We haven't talked in two days.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
My wife, Are you want to do a check in?
See Howard? And I might? No, not right now, Kansas
is playing. I'm gonna do one in Lawrence. I'm a
games on. I'm gonna check in on ESPN A the
ESPN ap.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Yeah, I'm gonna FaceTime the basketball team on the Television'm
gonna'm gonna check them with Bill self and Hunter Dickinson
and all the boys and Laurence.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
See how we're doing. What's with you?
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Kansas and guys' names? Dick, you had Grady Dick and
you got Dickinson.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
You're right, we had big dicks. Go to freeze and
we got big dicks. Anyway, two dicks will do is
what we should make a sure and then have hundred
Dickinson and Grady Dick. I turn it on and it's
on ESPN three. So you gotta go to the app,
you know what I mean, the ESPN app. And I
don't know if the ESPN app is just terrible or
(22:17):
if it's my damn TV. Because I go to the app,
I hit ESPN and says, what do you want to watch?
And I go down one over to to the third
thing on the screen. It's Kansas UCF and I click
on it and I wait, I mean, were you waiting
for me to interject? And I wait and I wait, Oh,
(22:41):
there goes shows me one second, and then I wait,
and then I wait the last minute forty one seconds.
I never saw the end of the fucking game.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
The lagging and the streaming, the lagging and the streaming.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
It kept going backwards, like it would show me two seconds,
and then we go back to the very spot where
it started. Show me that same two seconds, go back
to where it started, show me that same two seconds.
I never saw the end of the game, and the
what parts I did see it was the gloriest thing
I ever saw. I don't know who had the ball.
(23:16):
I don't know who took the shot. I don't know
who fouled who. I don't know who's at the free
throw line. If it's our good free throw shooter, our
bad free throw shooter, I have no idea. And it
happens every time I tried to watch ESPN on the app,
the ESPN all the time, ESPN three, whatever it is,
it's ESPN plus ESPN plus thank you, that's what it's
(23:37):
damn called.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Canceled that shit six months, you know, and I've never
been happier.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
And I don't know if it's just my TV or
if the app is just the absolute biggest piece of shit.
But I am so frustrated and you want to talk
about the stupidest things pissing you off? Do you want
to talk about putting me in a bad mood? I
was so pissed after that. I was just like, how
can this suck so bad? Or how does our TV
(24:03):
suck so bad? So I need to know people? Is
it my TV? Or does ESPN plus the worst product
in the history of products?
Speaker 2 (24:13):
It brings back memories. ESPN Plus we had it with Justin.
He would come over and we'd bet on Shamanad and
he'd be like, listen, I'm telling you the Hokies or
something or they're called like the Schoolboys, the Shamanad Schoolboys.
I'm telling you plus seven Shamanad Squirrels. You're gonna want
to take it, and we'd watch you on ESPN three.
I don't really remember then if it's streamed good or not.
The streaming is comical that you bring that up. If
(24:34):
we do Bravo and my wife accidentally clicks on the
wrong screen, will go all right, we're gonna watch below
deck and she'll be like, oh my gosh, I just
clicked I actually hit the forward arrow. Oh nope, nope,
you hit the foward errow. Oh it, don't even let
it reload, just turn off for the night. We're not
even gonna watch it, dude, cause I don't feel like
going for two minutes clicking through screens. You got up
all the way, re rewind it and then hit play,
(24:56):
and then sometimes it will skip ahead to your spot.
Guys with streaming, you hit the wrong button, You're screwed
out of five minutes. I'm like, baser, I don't have it.
I'm going to bed.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
You hit the forward button. Oh no, oh, she hit
the wrong button. She hit throw them forget it, forget it,
and she's like, you know what, I'll wait for it
on my iPad. I'm just gonna watch it. I'm going
to bed. I don't have two minutes in me.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
I'm dude.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
The old school cable box wasn't like that. You hit
a button, it went to the damn channel.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
Man. You want to know what I found out for
the Kansas game last night that you CEF had called
a time out. You see calls the time out. Dawkins
has options you see have called a time OUTDS Dawkins
has options you see have called a time out Dawkins
has options.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
Who does that mean?
Speaker 1 (25:42):
I don't know. I never finished the sentence. That's all
they said. That's all I got. I got that replay
about ten times. You're like glitchy, like the TV is.
I could not figure out what options they had because
we never got to that point in the sequence. I
got to the causes out. Dawkins has options, and there's like,
(26:02):
I don't know, a minute and fourteen on the clock,
and I think Kansas was up by two at that point.
But all I know is you see called the time
out and Dawkins has options. There you go. That is
what I got out of the Kansas game last night.
And I wanted to throw the TV through the back
door and never see it again. But then I thought
(26:24):
to myself, that's irrational, and it's probably not your TV.
It's probably this ESPN Plus because it's the same damn
thing when I buy a UFC fight on there.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
The ESPN plus du plus says Strickland coming up in
two years. Oh my god, O to sign you this weekend.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
It is so annoying. And so at nine to twenty
eight last night, instead of watching something else, instead of
turning the channel, I just turned it off and went
to bed so pissed off. Dude, I'm glad you just
said UFC. That reminded me.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
I haven't been over to my neighbor's house in six months.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
That as the TV set in the theater sound. Yeah,
don't know.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
If the guy's alive and his wife doesn't bring her
tesla home anymore, I think they broke up.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
That's not good.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
I need warm weather so I can go to some
neighbor backyards and see what's been the goss is.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
I'm out of the loop. You're just reminding me. I
know she probably you know where she probably is at
someone's house that has ESPN Plus. That works because I
need to know from people out there. We are the
sore losers at gmail dot com. Does ESPN Plus just
suck when you stream it to your TV? It's just that.
Is that the only thing it is?
Speaker 2 (27:26):
And they're getting you about ten bucks a month.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Oh, they're getting my ass because I'm paying for it
because I'm like, oh yeah, that means I can watch
any Kansas game I want, even if it's not on TV. No.
All I can watch is UCF called a time out.
Dawkins has options. That's what I got from the game
and I did look up to score. We won ninety
one eighty seven.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
If you got a volleyball player that goes to UCLA
and she's a woman, you can watch it on ESPN. Plus.
It's red for off the TV scores and sports you'd
never see anywhere else, but it can't watch it. It's
also good for golf.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
Now do you actually get to see it or do
you only get to see like half a second and
it rewind half a second rewind. I just cannot figure
it out, and I need to know because if it's
my TV, I will go out and buy a new TV.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Well, I'm because of that slow and lagging and gagging
and all the things. That's why I stop live betting.
I don't do it anymore. Dude, I'm on an iPad.
So you think your TV's delayed, My iPad's delayed by
three seconds. So what do you think happens when a
bet gets and when a game is going on. I
get the worst possible line you could bet on, and
they let me place the bet.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Guess we're gonna let you take it?
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Wwhich is four points by the time the bet goes in.
I'm done live betting. It's between my slow iPad, my
internet's fast beser has it for a work, my slow cable,
my streaming service, my slow betting app. All that equates
to me getting one point five points and it doesn't
matter it's under three. It all came full circle. That
(28:54):
is my conspiracy theory. Though. I think by the time
these betting apps are letting us bet live, they're giving
us the worst possible line.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
Well, they're not going to give you the best possible line.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Well, back in the day with Bovada, you could always
you'd get at least two or three points. If a
guy made a three, it'd shooted up three points and
you'd bet the under immediately and he would let you
bet these Oh processing processing, BET's getting worse for him,
that's getting.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Worse for him. Allowed, BET's allowed.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Oh great, the guy just drained two three pointers for
the other team. Oh the bet got placed though, we're
in luck, but I'm now down twenty points.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
Well, if you wanted to watch it on ESPN Plus
and you'll think you're getting a great line because it's
just paused the whole damn time. Oh my god. He
was so frustrating, and my wife's like you don't want
to watch someone else, Like, no, I'm going to bed.
I'm going to bed, Like if you want to watch something,
you watch them, I'm going upstairs. I can't do it.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
I can't say I'm watching the Bachelor. And the guy's
proposed six times.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
And then they broke up six months later, and he
dated the girl that he picked second, and then they
broke up and he went with the girl that was
in third place, and then they broke up and he
went for the girl that was in fourth place. Now
they're getting married. I think the show's back. Seriously, two
dudes really, and then whatever and then like the girl
you know, and then all.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
The whole group of guys. We're actually watching the fake one.
There's two dudes now, so I guess we're watching the
fake one. What is it called, uh, Charmed, Unearthed, simple Life, enchanted.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Enchanted, let me check that out.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
It's been out forever. But maybe it's a new season.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
We're watching all they have a new I watched I
think the first season.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
They basically give you all the hot guys from Bachelor
without saying it's from Bachelor. They basically say everything's all fake.
The producers produce everything. Yeah, people are fed drinks and
all that. I mean, it's I know, I.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
Think the person that wrote and worked for them or
in some former fashion. Yes, uh, it's not called enchanting.
Let me see fake Bachelor.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
Show producers all bagging each other.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Yeah. Sure.
Speaker 2 (30:50):
The one guy on staff was sad that the Bachelor
found somebody because he was actually the bachelor.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Unreal is that what you're watching?
Speaker 2 (30:58):
The show is enchanted, but it's unreal.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
Yeah. It stars reality producer Yeah okay. Unreal is an
American drama television series that premiered on Lifetime in twenty fifteen. Uh.
It was inspired by Shapiro's award winning independent shortfit What
the Hell? Plot? Producer Rachel Golberg returns to Everlasting. Everlasting, Yes,
(31:26):
there you go. All right, I'm glad we got to
the bottom of that. Man. Yeah, all right, we're gonna
take a break. We'll be right back. Had a tough
situation at the house. Got a divorce. It wasn't a divorce,
(31:49):
but it was close. My wife before me that baby
box has that birthday party at the same time as
our basketball game this coming Saturday. Sure, and she said,
what do we do? He said, it's a kid from
his class, one of his buddies. And I'm like, yeah,
is it one of his bros? It's one of his bros.
(32:11):
I said. The problem is he has a basketball game,
and when he decided to sign up for basketball, he
made a commitment to that team. He'll be at the
basketball game. She says, well, if you think about it,
we're the ones that signed him up, so shouldn't we
give him the choice what he wants to do. And
(32:32):
I'm like, oh, because Larry's mom keeps asking is he
coming to the birthday party? Because he coming to the
birthday party, let me, I said, let me think on that,
Let me think on that, let me let me. Let
me figure out what we need to do here. And
I was dead set on making him go to the
basketball game. And I texted my sister and I said, hey, baby,
(32:53):
Box has a basketball game on Saturday and a birthday
party at the exact same time. What do I do?
Sister replies, you went with a lifeline. I went with
a lifeline because maybe I'm being irrational fifty to fifty,
maybe a crowd decision. Maybe I am making a bad
decision based on my beliefs in like forcing him to
(33:14):
do what I want him to do. Take to your values, man.
So I text my sister and she replies, oh, I
mean once he signed up for basketball, he has a
commitment to the team. And I was like, yeah. I
was like, because my wife wants to let him choose,
and she goes, Ahtually, that's kind of a good option too,
because I mean he is only six, and I mean
(33:34):
does the basketball game really matter? And maybe he really
wants to go to the kid's birthday party. I'm like,
oh my gosh. So getting into bed the other night,
I tell my wife, I said, you know what, just
ask him in the morning. Just ask him in the
morning what he wants to do.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
Wakey, wakey, what you want to do.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
I don't want to force it on him, I said.
I am in the belief that he should go to
the basketball game. But I'm but you have this one.
You go ahead and ask him, all right, Papovich, Hey,
come on, Pavivich, we need you back, man. And I
don't know if I want dearon Fox. I don't know
if I want the spurs of trade for him.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
Who's getting Jimmy buckets?
Speaker 1 (34:11):
Oh, I don't know why you'd wanted me. He's thirty
five year old. It doesn't seem like he has a
good attitude right now. He'll probably go to Minnesota. Why not?
Speaker 2 (34:24):
Still nobody besides Thunder or Celtics going to the finals.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
I agree with that. Anyway, all the Rockets been pretty
damn good. Rockets look pretty good. I don't know if
you've watched you Rockets basketball. They're pretty fun to watch.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
I just when I hear Rockets, I just think of Houston.
Didn't then they look exactly like the college team.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
Yeah? Good, really good. Uh So, anyway, my wife sending
to breakfast with the sun Baby Box, like, hey, Bud,
you got Larry's birthday party this Saturday. He goes, Oh,
I can't wait. I can't wait. She goes, the only
problem is you have your basketball game at the same time.
Here we go plot and he was like, well, Larry
(35:04):
right on enchanted, he said, Larry told me his his
birthday party was ten hours, so I can go whenever
I want. And my wife's like, well, no, no, it
may his birthday may be all day, but his birthday
party is a two hour window and the party starts
at ten and your basketball game starts at ten thirty
(35:25):
so it's like right in the middle, so you wouldn't
be able to go. And he takes a bite of
his cereal Lucky Charms, takes a drink as his milk.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
I always eat the Lucky Charms last, eat the grains first, dad.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
And he said, like uncle Bobby, he said, Mom, I
want to go to my basketball game. He goes, I'm
gonna go to my basketball game because I like sports
more than I like a birthday party. Yeah's my boy.
That is my boy. That's him, that is my boy.
That is my kid. Honey, me a compleanixt. Oh my goodness,
(36:05):
I've never been so proud of my kid in my life.
Speaker 2 (36:07):
What a big moment at the breakfast table. You got
your newspaper out, shedding a tear, eggs and baky wife's
wearing no bra.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
What a hell of a morning. I mean, what a moment, honey.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
Would you like to discuss this one upstairs?
Speaker 1 (36:20):
Kids? If there's banging, I'm gonna be hammering. I'm not
sure many six year olds would make the most beautiful
decision of their life and say I like sports more
than I like birthday parties. I want to go to
my basketball game. I mean, you want to talk about
just I'm over.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
The moon, dude, And this reminds me of everything in
my childhood. I never got to go to these birthday parties.
My dad would take us to practices, take us to church.
They would drop us off at a birthday party like
the last thirty minutes. So when we would get there,
they'd be no cake, the confetti'd be everywhere, the kids
would be dicking around in the front yard, and parents
would be picking up the kids, and we'd drop off
(37:01):
Happy birthday, and then I'm ten minutes later we got
back in the car. So we never really got to
go to the birthday parties because we always had prior obligations.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
Yeah, I mean we this is the first like game
birthday party conflict we've had, and we passed it with
flying colors.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
You know, there's like a birthday party mule, and the
mules already shit all over the front yard. They've already
taken the mule back in.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
Hey, we brought this like little. I mean, it looks
like freaking it hadn't been. It looks so madded and nasty,
and it's like, oh, we got a petting zooon. It's
like that looks like a homeless animal you picked up
on the side of the road and kids are petting
in it's supposed to be cute, and it stinks like shit.
It's like, what kind of idea was this? Yeah, that
tells me there's a market. And guess what, there's another market.
Speaker 2 (37:43):
When was the last time you went to a kid's
birthday party where there was a band that played exactly,
we need to go around and play kids' birthdays parties.
They don't know what good music is You me and Arnold.
Speaker 1 (37:54):
Yeah, we could do that. There is this guy, Steve,
He plays around town and he does go to kids
birthday parties. He's really good. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (38:01):
There's just a market for entertaining kids. There's still petting
zoos and bounce houses and it's a massive All these
birthday parties you go to. It sounds like the untapped market.
Speaker 1 (38:15):
Birthday parties, bachelorette parties, those are where we missed the boat.
We should have been in those businesses with merchandise a
long time ago.
Speaker 2 (38:22):
I already told you about bj BJ had my buddy
lived at Encore where we went people were taking pisses
and where the party tractor picked up Yep. BJ lives
there Penthouse high Rise. He knew in twenty thirteen he
had a boatload of money and he had two options.
Invest in the tourism industry in Nashville or invest in
photo reflect those machines you put up at weddings and
(38:44):
they take pictures, Yeah, and then you print them out
and give them to the people. He chose the wedding
route with the photo reflect company ended up folding. Baser
at one point worked those events for him. She would
stand by the machine, help people with the pictures.
Speaker 1 (38:59):
Oh. He said it was one way or the other,
and he chose that way.
Speaker 2 (39:03):
He'd said he did make some money, but he ended
up just selling it because it wasn't lucrative enough to
keep doing it every weekend. Yeah, he said he should
have gone Nashville tourism industry. I mean it blew in mushrooms.
Since then it's blown up and he would have probably
gotten a party tractor or a hot tub boat and
done it up and down Broadway.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
It was that decision, just like your kid, just like
my kid. In a full circle. He made a great decision.
So last night at practice, I've never been happier. I
just had a smile on my face the whole time.
And let me tell you what we worked on. We
worked on rebounding, crashing the boards. I taught them to, hey,
when the ball goes up, put your hands up, catch
it before it bounces. And then also we worked on
offense and defense. I mean I lined them up on
(39:43):
It's a game called Animal. So we have nine kids,
and you line them up across from each other. You
two are one, You two are number two, You two
are number three. Youtubo a number four kid over here
on the end, you're number five. We'll find you an opponent.
And I would throw it up off the backboard and
two and the two kids that are number two would
(40:04):
run out to it. First one to get the ball
is on offense, the other one's on defense.
Speaker 2 (40:08):
That's good.
Speaker 1 (40:10):
And I taught him how to stay in front of
their man. I said, if you just keep your hands up,
you will give up no baskets. No one will be
able to shoot over you. Guys. Teach him to flop
like bron I did and Kelsey and Mahomes. It was awesome.
It was a great practice, dude. Then we played some
red light green light. We played freeze tag. They wanted
to play Duck duck goose, but we did not play
(40:31):
Duck duck goose. That was a great day. That was
a big decision for your kid.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
He's got another really big one important one coming up
in life, but that, for now is the biggest decision
of his life.
Speaker 1 (40:41):
Yeah, it was very good. So yeah, right, it's the
other one that was my that's my update on youth basketball.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
Read.
Speaker 1 (40:48):
Really looking forward to get out in there and get
our winning streak going this weekend. Still don't have our jerseys.
I mean, we're about to be our third game in
out of six and our jerseys have not arrived, so
I don't know if they're ever coming.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
Dude, we could have sponsored, man.
Speaker 1 (41:00):
We could have, but I do want to read this. Man.
I got it some in the mail lunchbox. You have
been my favorite on the show since I was in
middle school. I'm coming to Nashville for Valentine's weekend for
my bachelorette party, and I'd love the chance to meet you.
Shots and drinks on me from Cassidy. So Cassidy is
marrying Luke and Gibbon Georgia. Formal invitation to follow.
Speaker 2 (41:25):
I'm guessing it's a ranch style.
Speaker 1 (41:27):
I'm gonna assume. Yeah, it's March twenty ninth is when
the wedding is.
Speaker 2 (41:32):
So basically, you can go castle version, you can go ranch,
or let's just say business casual at a nice venue.
Those are really the three options. Lunch went, you went
big band church. Actually that's another option. Yeah, we did that,
we went country church. Yep, she sounds like she's going ranch.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
Yeah, she sounds like she's going ranch from Gibbon, Georgia. So,
Cassie and Luke, congratulations Cassie. I don't know. I may
make it out that weekend Valentine's Day. It's a busy
time for me.
Speaker 2 (42:01):
Dude.
Speaker 1 (42:01):
They got this one.
Speaker 2 (42:02):
I cut through when I go to the pizza place
where there's maybe four ranch houses, and they all come
to the barn for the wedding and the reception, and
then after it they go sleep in the four ranch houses.
Speaker 1 (42:12):
That's cool. Out in the middle of a pasture with
a bunch of cows. That's really cool, phenomenal love it.
I'm like, do I have to get married?
Speaker 2 (42:18):
Can I just go stand one of those?
Speaker 1 (42:20):
That's pretty cool?
Speaker 2 (42:20):
They said, no, Oh, some weddings only.
Speaker 1 (42:23):
Got it all right, guys, have a good Winnesday, You
got anything betting line, it's still at minus one and
a half.
Speaker 2 (42:28):
Guys, there's no race to try and bet this one
because in football it's threes and sevens. Anything less than
a three doesn't matter. Doesn't matter right now in Michigan State,
I said, they're hotter.
Speaker 1 (42:39):
And shit, they're playing really well.
Speaker 2 (42:40):
They're playing really well. They're team basketball. I think they
make a run at the final four. My money's all
in on Alabama Final four if Auburn. Auburn returned everybody,
and Kentucky returned nobody. Alabama returned to a lot of people,
and Houston returned to a lot of people. I saw something
all about tea basketball and returning people.
Speaker 1 (43:01):
Yeah, Kansas there and there's not good. Don't don't bet
on them. But yeah, guys, we're getting out here because
I gotta go to the I got a local MUNI.
It's fifty five degrees outside. I gotta get. We gotta go.
