Speaker 3: Maybe maybe not.
Speaker 2: This mint was a bad idea right before the second
starter because it's very obvious I'm sucking on a mint.
Speaker 3: The radio audience doesn't know what you're sucking on.
Speaker 2: Uh, nobody ever knows what's lndra sucking on. It's not
gonna be okay, relaxed. That was the joke, Taylor. You
just came in and bludgeted it alone, had a little
bit of subtlety to it, approached it nicely, and then
you just barged in like a bull in the china shop,
just just just beating the dead horse. Congratulations. Thanks. I
guess I don't I guess we've been saying that it
was hard to talking stuck on the thing at the
same time.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you gotta put it in like it's a turk
a little bit like right there, kind yeah, and then
like naturally you can talk.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, yeah, there was still the mint, still doing it.
I already got fat cheeks, so I put it on
the upper lip and look up, fat my cheek.
Speaker 4: Looks now slow burn. It's a slow burn, but still
getting the job done.
Speaker 5: Uh huh.
Speaker 2: Uh. Hey, how about it, guys. LSU clips in officially
gonna boot a dub for LSU true Prime Time baby
seven pm kickoff? Is that right? Is that Central Eastern Time?
It's seven thirty Eastern time. Seven thirty's freaking go dude.
Speaker 3: So six thirty for us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we are learning Thursday, look at us. We are
learning the bigger that's gonna be. That's gonna be pretty
emotionally tough. Well, the bigger party is really missing Don
Juan at that time.
Speaker 6: Sorry, Saturday and not a Sunday. That love that the
Sunday game.
Speaker 2: Some of the most brutally hungover experiences I've ever owned
the man, I know, the most brutal experiences I've ever
had were those Sunday night f s U games immediately
into Monday. Yeah, that's tough, tough, tough boys. I've stated
don Juan literally the first time until I showed up
for work.
Speaker 4: Here dra remember that that was the day rough day,
the rough you know it is, so I don't I
don't have a chance to watch Whiskey and Wine because
covering the games and you know, yeah yeah, uh yeah,
the whole deal. Yeah, I know, I know a lot
of people love it, Like all my family members on
both sides, they love it.
Speaker 2: They watch it. Whatever.
Speaker 3: People love whiskey and wine.
Speaker 2: Let me tell you something, love some good dirty comedy dude.
Speaker 4: Yesterday when T Bob announced he was leaving, the amount
of people that are upset that you're leaving that show, yeah,
I know.
Speaker 2: It's weird.
Speaker 3: I think I saw more whiskey and wine stuff than stuff.
Speaker 6: I think I read the comments on like our posts,
because like our post had like two hundred At one point,
I was like, I'm gonna read through the half of more.
Speaker 2: Whiskey and The thing is, though, it's like it's so popular.
This is more of a traditional radio show, and we
pushed the limits. Well, no, no, absolutely, what I mean though,
is like, no, I know what you're saying. Yeah, if
you want to listen to sports talk, you're gonna listen
to us. The thing about whiskey and wine is the
people listening don't care about sports talk. So like the
people that will listen to Murphy, Sam and Jody in
the morning, we'll throw on whiskey and wine because they're
drunk and just want to hear somebody talk about the game.
And it's immediately after it was. I feel like it
was a pretty unique concept or or maybe have a
moment with an inflatable pig. Yeah, yeah, no, And I
mean it's like I told my mom, you know, people
love because she was when I was with her in
California recently, she was kind of I just had to
sit her down and be like, look, mom, you just
got to accept, like, unfortunately, my life has kind of
led me to being somewhat of a dirty comedian. You know,
that's kind of my job in some ways, and so
don't watch my stuff, you know, but just know that
I'm trying my best. I'm working hard, and it is funny.
Bain says, you know, no one cared who I was
till I put on the mask. No one cared who
I was till I started doing dick jokes. It's actually true, true,
Like after that is when Volume came around. That's why
Rome came around here recently, they said they wanted something
a bit more out there, like it is kind of crazy.
So you're like the whole time, all I had to
do was make sense. I mean, those have been in
the back of my head forever. Just needed I just
needed the ability to go to go all in.
Speaker 7: But uh, yeah, I would say whiskey and wine is
probably the most popular thing that we do as like
one O four five years.
Speaker 2: I think the number is alone from a YouTube standpoint, Yeah,
because but again, but it but it is playing with
a fully stacked deck because everybody's gonna watch the football game,
even if you don't give a damn about sports talk.
It starts immediately when the game ends. You don't have
to work all the ads and everything. It's live and
uh you're not just talking about the football. So it's like, yeah,
it's it's got a stack. It's it's a perfect recipe
and it will be still successful no matter what what's next,
and it'll be better in some ways. I mean, you know,
there are some shows there. I was just way too drunk,
way too drunk, especially like the first second season figuring
out my system. Geez, that Kentucky game. I don't really
remember doing the show that much. That was bad. The
one in Lexington, Yes, yeah, I got to feed down. Yes,
I think I smoked like eighteen cigarillos, like hard inhaling
in the lungs and maybe like a fifth the mes cow.
It was really bad. The next day I was like, oh, okay, okay,
that never again, never again.
Speaker 7: I'm trying to think of the one this past season
or the last season that I was like, oh, t
Bob is on one som one.
Speaker 2: There was one this last season that got me. I
cameber what game. What I do remember is it's because
I got a little cocky and outside my system, accepting
too many shots. Yeah, people started buying me Jamison shot.
Speaker 7: Because I think that's when club got me to take
one too.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm. That ended up because normally I'm one double
Meskie per quarter.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I saw I saw a clip of the somebody
actually shared a clip of you during the Alabama Whiskey
and Wine yesterday when the whole moving thing was announced
and it was you talking about having to watch your
girl with Chad.
Speaker 2: Yes, the uh, it's the clip they shared. So a
lot of that is out there. It's like I told
Room the other day, Man, there's a lot of bad
tape out there on your boys. So if I'm gonna
get canceled, the evidence is already there. So like they
just do it now.
Speaker 4: Of thing that you would get canceled for it, you know,
some things that maybe everyone wouldn't put out there, But
there's nothing where you're gonna get canceled.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't think you're getting canceled for any of it.
Speaker 4: I mean, you're a very thoughtful person. To you, I
don't think you would ever put anything out there get
you canceled.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 2: You think me talking about Brad and Chad swapping bodily
fluid's mouth, I.
Speaker 3: Don't think it's cancelable.
Speaker 7: Maybe it's a step too far, but I don't think
anybody's gonna cancel.
Speaker 2: To be clear, you know how I feel about cancel culture,
cause I've talked about on here. All it is is
a social democracy. There's no hard rules. It's it's it's
it's each situation is independent. It's whether people like the
person or not. Like, there's a lot of factors in
play when you come to any camp. So I sincerely
hope that I can avoid that, but I don't know.
Just so I've been kind of chilled out in it
a little bit too, Yeah, a little bit, So for sure,
I don't know.
Speaker 7: Well, I think it's because Judge canceled somebody, Like everybody
was just like Nah's.
Speaker 6: And they like got bigger because of it, yea for
like a month and then they blew up after.
Speaker 2: But this is why, this is why I kind of say,
missed me with the people complaining about it, Because you
don't like, you don't get canceled if people like, if
they don't like, I know, there's no yes, but there
are no hard rules to it. It's just democracy. If
enough people like you, you're not getting canceled. That's straight up.
So that's the goal. Got to make people like me
so I can do these these uh, offensive sex jokes,
these juvenile crude jokes.
Speaker 6: Well, so like if people try to cancel you, like
it's kind of an honor, like you've made it right,
Like if you're irrelevant, nobody gives a crap.
Speaker 2: Are you saying that we should be honoring Kanye Taylor. No,
I'm saying you should feel honored. You should feel Kanye
should feel honored that he's sitting here spelling wrong with you.
You have completely twisted that God.
Speaker 6: Like if nobody knew who you were, you wouldn't try
to be canceled because like, yeah, some people do awful things,
but at the same time, you're like, at least people
know me.
Speaker 2: No, I'm just kidding. I'm just messing. I get what
you were attempting to say. Christian says, what's an A plus?
Actually before because I like that question, we'll get there.
Maybe it's seven.
Speaker 7: Thirty seven thirty No, yeah, my bad.
Speaker 2: Actually we're not gonna be do it now. What's an
A plus, a C and an F year for Tyler
Schuck like stats games, one, et cetera. I would say, okay,
A plus would be seven wins, yeah, over three thousand
yards and like, uh, twenty to thirteen touchdown to pick ry. Yeah.
Speaker 6: I was gonna say like twenty two ten somewhere in there. Yeah,
so yeah, that'd be my A plus two to one
touchdown to pick.
Speaker 2: F is pretty self explained. Try. I feel like you
know you you you lose all the games and you
you have a negative I inte to pick ratio terrible
arts per game yards for a tempt like five because
you're just sitting there dumb it off because you're panicked.
See go to C year, b Jake like probably fifty
to fifty touchdown pick.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, and then you win five games, but
there's like four games where you're in it, like you're
in it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you couldn't make the play. Yeah, the play was
right there, and you're like, with another year.
Speaker 4: Under his belt, he can make those plays that'd probably
be a C year And that sounds bad. I know,
I get it, but you have to also be realistic
and understand where you're at.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I said a plus was seven wins to be clear,
like you suck you Booty and debt. We will get
to the No's art story, but first let's do Machi's
with our best friend, chef Michael Johnson more than to
be coming up.
Speaker 1: Next off the bench.
Speaker 2: Do secies cannot wait to drink some Doseys tonight because
you know it's the perfect beer for baseball season, in
this postseason run that's about to go down for your Tigers,
it's do sekis so when you're wondering what to drink
this week, and why don't you go for dose? Okay,
buy you some limes, slice them up, get some salt,
grease up the neck there, sprinkle the salt, drop the
line in and you are going to be blown away. Guys,
delicious mechan lagger, go to the sekis. I guess you
go to two secis dot com, but you probably just
go to the grocery. We'll go buy some right. Uh
but yeah, perfect beer for summertime, you're swimming, hanging out, springtime, whatever,
perfect beer for baseball, any sports, all of it is
better with this. Hey, we talked about it the other day.
Speaker 4: Like shower beer, yeah, beach beer of course, lake beer,
no doubt, pull beer elite, yep, baseball beer maybe even
more elite.
Speaker 2: Do sekis?
Speaker 1: I have a couple Enjoy response, Sign back to sports
talk maybe off the bench.
Speaker 2: It's going, y'all. I'll put it down right now. It
is my distinct pleasure to be joined by one of
my favorite people on earth, and that is our guy, Chef,
Michael Johnson. And Chef. Although your relationship with OTB will
absolutely continue and you'll continue to answer the culinary queries
of our wonderful audience each and every week. Unfortunately, this
will be mine and yours last time getting to do
this together. I know I text you about it last night,
but I do want to thank you publicly for everything
you've done for us over the years. And it sounds
weird because I mean, we connect very naturally, but we've
not really gotten to like hang out too much outside
of this and then you come to studio and whatnot.
But you've had a real big impact on my life
and you've taught me a ton. You've also made me
just in general way more adventurous in the kitchen, way
more confident, and you've always attacked. I would have never
had my wife off my nipples if not for you, Chef.
Speaker 4: That's not even like the worst thing that I thought
you were going to say there.
Speaker 2: But now, thank you, thank you very much.
Speaker 5: It's been a pleasure, brother, really, and I mean that
it really has been a pleasure. Right I sent you
the text this morning. I feel the same way. I'm
I know that I'm happy for you and and look
forward to seeing what you're gonna do up there and
shaking Chicago up a little bit.
Speaker 2: Hashtag munchies are there too many ingredients on a Chicago dog?
Speaker 5: On a Chicago dog, No, I mean there is food
there that you there's food that you can say there's
too much going on with it, But not with the
Chicago dog. Man. I think that's like it's a priceless thing. Man,
it's a it's a it's a it's a construct that
you just I don't know, it's magical, you know what
I mean. Like even the even the green relish is
that you know, like it's obviously there's something unnatural about
that neon green, but my god, it's you know, like
it's just it just goes right.
Speaker 2: So like the whole is greater than the sum of
its parts.
Speaker 5: Absolutely, you know. I think if there was one thing
I could do without, it's probably the poppy set on
the bun. But who cares, you know what I mean,
Like that's that's that's negligible. Once it's you know, like
if the hot dog bun does it doesn't have poppy seets,
I'm okay. But if you lose any of the other stuff,
it's integral, you know.
Speaker 2: So I feel like you were hinting at this, So
I'm gonna ask Brian Burg's question hashteg Munchies is chef
a fan of Chicago Deep Dish pizza.
Speaker 5: You know, I like different types of pizzas. I do
eat Chicago Deep Dish, but I think it's not my favorite,
you know, Like I'm a bread has kind of taken
a back seat in my life as a whole, and
that Dobe bread, you know, like it's fun.
Speaker 7: For a long while.
Speaker 5: It is, man, you know, like I like Neapolitan style
where you you know, kind of almost burn the crust
on it and it gets crisp, and you know, like
people are like, well it's burned. No, it's just a
extually it's different. Yeah, but I like, I like a
thinner crust than crispy.
Speaker 2: My algorithm serves me up so many Italians making Neapolitan
pizza really and then cutting, yeah, cutting the pizza with scissors.
It's yeah, yeah, I feel like I've seen a lot
of people use scissors in the kitchen more. My wife's
been using lately. I got a big old knife that
I love now. Yeah, I like a good old old
school pizza cutter, like for the pizza.
Speaker 4: Throw it like on the you know, on the cutting
board and you hear the sound of the pizza cut
the crust on the pizza cutter, so you know you
did the crust right.
Speaker 2: Hashtag munchies. Wait, sorry, I lost my Uh I was
thinking too much about food. Can you create a crawfish
a two fay covered boot and dog for t Bob
to introduce to Chicago?
Speaker 5: Yeah, that sounds good. I feel like I had to
go over on Dewey though, you know what I mean? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, well boot him when he when he. I don't
think the texture is right to be for a hot
dog in.
Speaker 5: Yeah. I guess I could eat boot in that would
be okay. Yeah, but but to your point, you know, like,
I don't know. I think on Dewey makes more sense
to me. I like the snap of the Yeah. Yeah,
I don't know if Chicago's ready for that or not.
Speaker 2: Man, you don't think the Midwest is ready for that show.
Speaker 5: Feel like you're gonna have an uphill battle there. For
a while there.
Speaker 4: I was just about to say, like, chef, you're gonna
have to help our boy out, Like you're gonna have
to be like, Okay, if you go get this and
this and you put it together, it can kind of
equal this what you're used to back home.
Speaker 5: I know we're gonna have to reacclimate, you know, like
I don't feel like this relationships over tabo because you're
going to get to Chicago and be like, what the
hell is going on here? Man?
Speaker 2: You know, like, oh, no, I know, I'm gonna be
hitting you up constantly for tips, ideas, anything, everything. Yeah,
hashtag munchies. My grandma always had these, always one of this.
Why did they even make red hot dogs? Why are
some of the dogs? Why are the dogs? Dis make
me eat those? Yeah, we see it taste fine, but
like why were they so red?
Speaker 5: It has something to do with the casing, and I
don't recall exactly, but they put I think that put
the dye in there to indicate that it was like
a collagen casing versus a natural casing. I'm not a
thousand percent certain on that, but I think it had
something to do with that.
Speaker 2: So it was just a die though, Like it wasn't.
I mean, in the casing is different, but it wasn't
anything about the ground up giblets.
Speaker 5: No, I don't think so. I mean, yeah, hot dogs
were a real weird deal because you know, dog a dog,
you know, you might have an all beef hot dog
and the color of all beef hot dog is going
to be different than an all meat hot dog. And
first of all, if you're an all meat hot dog person,
you need to rethink life.
Speaker 2: Because what's what's getting thrown in there?
Speaker 5: Oh my god, I mean it's it's one step away
from sawdust. First of all. It's it's got chicken, turkey, uh, pig,
and beef all like emulsified together. And I'm not talking about,
you know, like the good parts. So I'm talking about
the routers and the tutors and the.
Speaker 2: Meat waste not what not. Yeah, I was hungry till then. Yeah,
I love to It's it's not just the combination meets
but as you said, it's all the worst parts of
all the different all right.
Speaker 4: So so if we're if we're getting a link, right,
because I do love a good hot dog, like give
me the best option, like it's kind of easy, like
one that I don't have to go, like to a
maybe a specialty store, Like is there anything I think.
Speaker 5: You know, like a Nathan's or the Jewish kosher ones
are are pretty darn good dogs. They're bougie and they're expensive,
but Hebrew nationals are are one that comes to mind,
like they they only use specific parts of the cows
and and they you know, like it's done, you know,
as as we're talking about hot dogs, it's done with
some premium. Uh. I guess you know, culture behind it
rather than just putting everything together and mixing it and
saying here you go. I think that it's done, you know,
like with higher Yeah, I'm not saying I think, I
know that it's done that way, but I think that
it just you know, produces a superior product.
Speaker 2: Yes, uh also Jake and no free ads or whatever,
but I do Uh, I've seen hot dogs very good.
Okay about iver seens all the time. My kids like
are now hot dog snobs. You give them a ballpark,
Frank there just nose up. Yeah, a little bit, a
little bit. Unfortunately, if you're.
Speaker 5: Playing a dollar for a hot dog at the ballpark,
there's a reason for it. Man.
Speaker 2: God, I love dollar dogs. Dollar dogs. Yeah.
Speaker 5: When I worked in the minor leagues, we would as
many dollar dogs at the minor league stadium then we
only had fifty home games to the eighty one home
games of a major league stadium. We sold more hot
dogs in a major league stadium at that little stadium
that I worked at because we sold dollar dogs every
day of the week.
Speaker 2: Yeah, blue collar you know, there you go, dollar dogs.
Get the people out there. And also these MLB teams y'all. Yeah,
they just doing crazier and crazier creations. I feel like,
which is cool. You know you want to push it
hashtag munchies, Jeff, have you ever tried my loret Is
there any way to make it taste good?
Speaker 5: I don't know what that is.
Speaker 2: It's a Chicago liquor that legitimately tastes like bugspray.
Speaker 5: Well, I mean none of that appeals to me at all.
I mean, you had me at liquor a little bit,
but yeah, you know what I mean, Like, I'm kind
of I'm kind of boogie and picky about my liquors too.
Speaker 2: So no, it seems like they like started drinking it ironically.
But then you know how you can adopt something that
you were doing ironically at first and then adopted sincerely.
Speaker 5: I feel like that natural selection to me.
Speaker 2: I actually have some molart in my office right now, Jake,
if you want to try it on air, Okay, hell, yeah,
it's awful. Hey, this tastes like ish want something.
Speaker 4: It's like it's like somebody's like, dude, that smells horrible,
smell this, Like, oh no, I.
Speaker 2: Never smell it. I never smell it. I don't want
to know. It's disgusting. People still try, though, Yeah. Uh
hashtag munchies. Uh, what's the most out there item you've heard?
Slash scene in a crawfish burrow?
Speaker 5: M pineapple is probably gonna be up there. You know,
some people think the mushrooms are crazy, but I dig
on mushrooms. But I like, uh, I don't know, man.
You know, I always wanted to boil peanuts then with
my cross.
Speaker 2: Spoil and have them take on that flavor.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've never seen that dune, but I've always wanted
to do that. I think that would be kind of.
Speaker 2: Would would the peanut flavor in part? Or like, do
you think that it would just work the other way?
Speaker 5: No, I think it's probably going to go the other way.
I expect them, you know, like there may be some,
but you're gonna have to do it after the crawfish
because you know, like the shells of the peanuts have
the possibility of falling apart in the water, and I
don't know that you necessarily want that. Oh yeah, crawfish.
Speaker 2: So you're talking about just saving you know, just saving
the water after you take the crawfish out and just
poiling some peanuts.
Speaker 5: In there, yeah, or dropping it down I guess. I
mean peanuts think quite a while to boil, So I
guess you could drop them down there and let him
sit at the bottom where you while you're in a
like outside of the pot, and put the pot in
on top of them, and then pull them out and
strain it. But how you know, I'd have to work through, honestly.
But but I think that crawfish water would be great
to boil peanuts in, just because of the spice and
the flavor that that that comes of the liquid, you know,
after you've boiled some crawfish.
Speaker 2: Oh sounds so good that way.
Speaker 4: Crawfish last weekend because we had a bunch of a
family in that has Louisiana roots obviously, but they've moved
all over the country and it is amazing. Like I
we're biased here, but I've lived a lot of different
places in this country. I'm not sure that there is
a food that can bring people together and start a
better conversation than having a crawfish boil. I just don't chef.
I mean, you've you've done the same You've been everywhere.
Is there anything that can do the same thing that
crawfish does.
Speaker 5: I mean, food in general is kind of fun to
do that, but I think crawfish is at the top
of the heat because it is a social event, you know.
And I don't know when we when I was up
Tony's last week, they had a craw fish boil there
and it was for the employees. It was a summer
party for the employees, and we just happened to be there,
and you know that that was their celebration, you know,
instead of you know, having a barbecue or whatever. That
was their celebration together. And you know, everybody sits down
and goes quiet because they're can crossish, spits out a
few words now and again, and you know, you crack
a beer and it's crawfish, man, and it's it really is.
It's something to be shared, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: You drink the beer with both palms on the side.
I mean, at that point, you're just getting that bottle nasty,
He's getting that getting that I'm just grabbing it, just
getting everything everywhere really yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, it
is what it is.
Speaker 4: I mean, in for a penny, in for a pay,
And it didn't really matter if Like I just I'm
so used to doing like the palm, like get a
drink and then go right back into the craw fit.
Speaker 2: No, I just I just let I let it get
everywhere all over that bottle.
Speaker 4: That just means you love a good amalgamation. That's true
of food together like a KFC bowl. So that makes sense.
Speaker 2: I would say the only thing that I know of
that's like crawfish. And I only know this because my
wife's family is from Maryland. They do the same thing,
just called the crab beasts, just with crabs. No, people
from Maryland are weird. That's the difference there. Yeah. Hashtag
munchie m m mmmm. I don't want this in I
need one more. But some of these one I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
Hold on, let me, let me, let me somebody give
me a good one.
Speaker 4: Guys, Chef, you got to give him like the first
stop he's got to go to in Chicago, like I know,
you know.
Speaker 2: Playing, I mean, you know all over the country. What
do you think give me something?
Speaker 5: I mean, I just said I wasn't into it as much,
but I do. When I go to Chicago, I do
go find the right Chicago deep dish pizza. And I
haven't been to Chicago for a few years, but it
definitely is one of those things. And and honestly, you
got to go to the ballpark, you know, like I
love to go watch the Cubs play and have a
Chicago dog in the ballpark. That's that's you know, like
that is to me, akin to the experience of having
a cross or spoil and sharing it with people, you know,
like it's it's a it's a social gathering. And I'm
not a Cubs fan. I'm a I'm a Cardinals fan.
But I do like going to Wrigley and and having
a hot dog there. It's always at the top of
my list.
Speaker 2: And I'm sorry, Maryland, y'all are awesome, but yeah, I
I I Maryland. Uh that's what would Kaitlyn's families partially
that whole area. Well, look, Ryan Boyle to chats and
Maryland shut out Ryan. No, I agree though, Chef Wrinkley's awesome.
Awesome dogs are I mean, if you were like a
real when you could be a white SOX fan. I'm
not I'll leave that to I'll leave that to Pope Leo. Yeah,
that name for me. Uh, Chef, thank you so much.
I love you and I will obvious, I mean whatever,
we're gonna be talking, but thank you for everything.
Speaker 5: Of course, take care of your stuff, buddy, Sir.
Speaker 2: Chef Michael Johnson. Mmmmm. I'll never get the genesis of
the Munchie segments during COVID and we were this when
we thought all sports are gonna be canceled, and I
was like, oh my god, like we're cooked, Like we're
not gonna making money, Nobod's gonna advertise. This thing's gonna
all end. I was like in I remember walking around
my neighborhood for two hours with a little notebook and
a pin and just trying to jot down ideas. And
I think the one and that's where a lot like
would you Rather Wind? A lot of stuff came from.
But the one that survived probably about a twenty ideas,
was Munchies. And that's all because a chef Michael Johnson.
I used to enjoy would You Rather Wednesday? Though it
was fun, yeah, it was for a long time. It
kind of naturally ran its course it felt like like
the people's enthusiasm for it died down a bit, but
it wasn't. It's like it's like the tear List for
a couple of years. Yeah, a couple of years. It's
like the teer List. Right, those were awesome until they weren't.
Oh my gosh, Like.
Speaker 4: When we first started doing those, the juice that we
had because it was great debate in here, and people
would lose their mind to lose their minds. I mean
we'd stay here like thirty forty five hour after a
show like the Baiting, How could this not be here?
Speaker 2: How could this be?
Speaker 7: There?
Speaker 2: A lot of horse trade.
Speaker 6: It was almost noon one time, it was like eleven
thirty hut that was when Hunt was noon to two.
And he's like, hey, can we record something before the show?
I'm like, bro, they're still in there. He's like, what
are they doing? I was like, I don't know. The
show has been over for an ounce it, Like, I
don't know what we're doing.
Speaker 2: With the problem. But like, and I guess that's why
people stopped reacting to it, because we lost a passion
for it. We started phoning it in.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and you, I don't know, you got pretty fired
up two years ago. It was my it was my
first two lists. It was the HBO one and you like, yeah,
for Ron, it's all idiots and peasants because we had
never seen Rome.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you just idiots and you lost it for never
seeing Rome. Duhat so good wars would breakout in the chat,

Speaker 4: Then like somebody in here was younger than knew the
new was it us? Okay it was day so we
were all three different. Anyways, all Star dot com is
the place to get all suctions.
Speaker 2: Taylor showed up basically.
Speaker 3: Really bad. I was here for that one.
Speaker 2: It was not bad as all Star to Rouge dot Com.
Speaker 1: Back from the break where the sports talk gets real,
kind of off the bench with Hester and t Bob.
Speaker 8: I don't want to give you minded no happy birthday
nookie up.
Speaker 3: Aren't you gonna miss great bump music?
Speaker 2: Yea? You know. The the thing that.
Speaker 4: Interesting is whoever takes over that other chair is gonna
have to realize that it has to be part of you.
Speaker 2: It means something on this show. Yeah, I ain't realize
you're the only show still doing it. Yeah, they play
like generic, like terrible nothing.
Speaker 4: He gets like my move for a segment gets started
by the Right Joys, which Elandra does incredibly well.
Speaker 7: I think I'm we're like the only people that think it's.
Speaker 3: Like important, not important. I wouldn't even say.
Speaker 2: It's important as the reason I show up, but like
it's it's always been very important to Jake especially and
I love it. But it's like, no, it is it
is like it is definitely it is high on the
priority list.
Speaker 7: Jew And whenever we got banned from Spotify because of
the copyright, I told I told Matt, I was like,
I mean, I can stop playing this music if you
want me.
Speaker 3: To like I it.
Speaker 7: Doesn't have I don't have to play this, And he
was like.
Speaker 2: Better talk to Jake about that.
Speaker 7: I don't want the show to not be the show,
so keep playing it.
Speaker 4: Really like Matt understood and understands, like he's really good
about knowing, Hey, this is the host like priority and
he likes it.
Speaker 2: And as far as bosses go, ever since I got
that program directory job, text has been pretty great. Yeah. Now,
obviously he's on air friendly because he's on air, so
it's almost like having a bit of a ringer in
there in some ways because he's gonna advocate for you.
But he's never I mean, I will always love guarantee
in Matt because they've never really tried to control the content.
There might be some stuff here there like hey, you
need you better about your brakes here, and yes we
do sometimes have to hit our YouTube benchmarks like hey
we need you know an LG video day, a Saint
video day. That's all very understandable, but it's never been
like within that elis you're a Saint studio, here's what
you talk about, here's you do? That was too much?
That was too little, even like credit to math specifically
on one of the whiskey and wines, we had a
sponsor pull out citing my uncouth nature, basically saying, you know,
this is not how we want to be, this is
not what we're going to be associated with. And it
kind of threw me for a loop and I was like, oh, man,
like do I dial it back because it's too much?
And Matt said, like vehemently, like absolutely not, Like no,
this is the show. Is it gonna do? People come?
If they don't want to, they won't. It's all good,
but like, this is the show. We're not going to
change the show. And so I always was very thankful
for that. Also, I do he shout out Mario yesterday
when I was running down producers. I don't know how
I knew I should have written some down because it's
slipped my mind. But yes, Mario herez a great part
of the show as well, for I think, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I did. Yes. When we were doing that live shoutouts,
I forgot to mention I think out of your mind Mario.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, Mari, if someone point that out, Mario, no, I.
Speaker 2: Was just thinking about it on further reflection. But but Mario,
uh yeah, I mean, he even started doing like you
see the Spanish highlights back in the day. It was
his DJ Shark Yeah, Auburn, Pultcaturn. Yeah, it's all good one.
I mean, yeah, that's one of the best. Yeah. It's
up there in the hall, the Hall of Fame. Uh
and thank you to Flynn Foster, the boss man over
here at Guarantee give me my first job. I think
the only times Flynn ever got I ever got kind
of a scolding from the principal. Essentially, I once referred
to the one O four five van, which is windowless
and scary. Yeah, as an R word van on air,
and you know, looking back, that's an insane thing to
do objectively, So talking to was needed there. And maybe
at the Uhi gala a couple of years ago, I
mayor bame and not have been yelling about wanting to
copulate with a person who happened to be one of
Flynn's friends. T T before you go any farther down
that road.
Speaker 4: Yeah, who was asked BacT this year and who raised
more money than they've ever raised before.
Speaker 2: That's right, that's right, let's go. So it wasn't that bad.
My wife just said, you sitting in that you have
drawn papers. That hurts. It hurts. I love that. Oh
that does kind of hurt. It hurts that that one
hit me a little, uh, hit me a little different show?
Uh is anything more awkward than filling your awkwardness with
a show? The show? Ain't nobody think of popping any Hey, how.
Speaker 3: What we're doing get done?
Speaker 2: All right? Uh? No, not guys, that's the wrong R word.
Think about the R word that. How are you confused
about across the board? I don't know, but don't see
either one. I can't believe I said that on air.
That was really really dumb.
Speaker 3: Have you all ever watched like the old TV show
Now What I mean?
Speaker 2: Debbie does Dallas.
Speaker 7: So there's like a part it's from like the late
seventies early eighties, and there's.
Speaker 2: A part with Debbie True.
Speaker 7: There's a part where they're talking about somebody's pregnant and
then the doctor's like telling them that there's like an
abnormality or something like that, and the guy's like, so
he's and he says the.
Speaker 3: R word, and like, because back in the day that
was normal. But I thought I watched the show with
my dad and I thought it was so funny. It
was laughing.
Speaker 7: I was cracking up, and he's like, what are you
laughing at. I'm like, he just called a baby.
Speaker 2: That seems like something that would be clipped online and
be a meme that, Yeah, I should find it, if
you would find me, I should find it.
Speaker 3: All right.
Speaker 2: When we get back, ask the bench, keep buck top
the bench, Get Gordon and get it done two to

more of these left? Guys? We have more and more
left do It reminded you about Rouses, a place where
I've spent a lot of time, guys. I mean I've
been posted up handing out gift cards in front of
Rowses for five years now. Shout out to John. Shout
out with John. I love him. You probably see me
posted him on Instagram. It is funny, I you know.
I so we all hang out all the time because
we're here for work all the time, right, and this
is an intimate thing, so we we kick it constantly.
There is nobody in my life that I hang out
with more than John. It's fair and I'm gonna miss
him right deeply.
Speaker 7: That's what I was gonna try to say yesterday, is that,
like I probably see y'all more than I see anybody
else in my entire Like that's why it's just like
it's just gonna be kind of weird, very.
Speaker 2: Weird thing text intimate the other day. Yeah, yeah, you
don't see a lot of the people, or at least
you you touch more parts of the building than we
do a launder. But when I'm not in here, I'm
in my office, but a lot of times it's fe
might pop in and say something, But it's pretty pretty individuals,
very intimate being here together as many hours as we
are every day, and that's gonna be the biggest change
in the thing that I missed the most. Ask the
bench you can love you, John Love Rowse and I
did the I did some quick math here. What's that?
Speaker 4: Uh So we've done the show for more than four
years together, but you know, just using four years, if
you put all the time we spent together doing three
hours five years.
Speaker 2: It's been five years.
Speaker 4: Okay, Well, if I went off four years, probably is
going on five that would have been us spending one
hundred and thirty days together, like of like like twenty
four hours.
Speaker 2: Yeah, almost as much World of Warcraft as I've played
in my life. Well think about that's a lot. Kind
of sad, but maybe kind of too depressingly close to true.
I mean I've probably played fifty days of Wow in
my life. Yeah, I see.
Speaker 3: Way more than my own family.
Speaker 4: Oh did Jake ever get a rouse gift card from Tea?
Speaker 2: Not a single one?
Speaker 4: Not one If this man, this man's got probably like
seven just on deck.

only take him moving to Chicago.

want to toe the line and break the rules. Yeah,
I thank you.
Speaker 4: I would have traded inside for you, but yeah, you
know you're a man of principal.
Speaker 2: I get it. Asked the bench. I remember seeing t
Bop take touchdown shots at the Londoner and the two

the bar. I wake up. It's like two o'clock. I

bit yesterday when Taylor was talking started to land. When
I was writing the piece they got published in Louisiana
Sports on Net. That's that's been the most emotional I've
