02:05All right. So let's get to it. So last week after the craziness of surviving and all the
02:09controversy, Dave wanted to talk about dinner for 45 minutes, but he's promising us today.
02:14A, uh, a 10 out of 10 when he's a 10 out of 10. Well, Rico fucking this guy, he's writing
02:21the Ohio state QB as he's. Well, yeah, he did that, which I don't really care, but let's
02:28set the stage. Uh, is he here? He could get mad about this. I'm not quite sure. If we
02:35have something, wait, no. Can he hear the show right now? He can. He can. Okay. Kenny
02:42or can't he? I don't know. He's probably walking over. So I doubt he's listening. All right,
02:47go ahead. Go. All right. We'll just, uh, there's a clip that came across my desk. He's sitting
02:52down now. Okay. All right. Let's bring them in. Put them on. What's up? What's up? There's
03:01a clip that came across my desk. Let's just play it. It's old. Let's just play it. Everybody
03:08can react to this. However they want to react. The game coming up the, um, or would you start
03:17clinging or would you start to no go? If you were Dan Hurley, you don't want to just kind
03:24of read these. You're the worst father in the world. I thought we'd split. Someone's
03:31getting roasted on the line. Sorry to hear that. I'll play that again. Yeah, I think
03:38you got to listen to the, or would you start to no go? If you were Dan Hurley, or would
03:43you start to no go? If you were Dan Hurley, you don't want to just kind of read these.
03:50You're the worst father in the world. I thought we'd split. Someone's getting roasted on the
03:57line. Sorry to hear that. You got to listen to the, or would you start to no go? If you
04:03were Dan Hurley, or would you start to no go? If you were Dan Hurley, you don't want
04:13to just kind of read these. You're the worst father in the world. I thought we'd split.
04:18It's not me. It's not me right now. By the way, it's my wife's birthday. Happy birthday
04:27to my wife, but, uh, I'm not going to do a full Smitty, but that is not my wife's voice.
04:34I'll tell you, I'll tell you, I'll do this. I'll do this. So that is, that is a college
04:38basketball Fanta podcast. It's not me, but here's the thing. I would have to be in that
04:44space. Do you see my name in the space as a speaker? Let's be an investigator. Let's
04:49be an investigator. You're, you're, you're a burner guy. I'm open with it. Joey Yanks.
04:55I sent that to some people who know basketball and I got a hundred percent. That's his voice
05:01back on. Every voice sounds, my voice sounds very familiar, but it's not my wife and it's
05:05not me. I know that's not my voice as well. That's very bizarre. Who's the voice then?
05:11What do you say? The voice, the voice, the male voice does sound like me. It is not me
05:16because it's not my wife speaking. There's no way. I know Kirk likes to throw around
05:22the Guma. I could see him. I could see one Reese being on the table. What did you say?
05:28You like to throw around the Guma thing, the rumors with the Guma's, but that's not
05:32me, buddy. So it was not your Guma on the phone with you though. Okay. Okay. Okay. You're
05:37not the worst father. That sounds exact. There's nothing more. I'm not a speaker in the thing.
05:45Yeah, but you're not even meant to be on it. It was a mistake. Fanta as a burner on a college
05:50basketball podcast, play, listen to this guy's voice. Let me hear it. Rico. I haven't really
05:55heard. I couldn't really hear. Everyone quite listen to the voice. This is bizarre. Or would
06:02you start to no go if you were Dan Hurley? You're the worst father in the world. I thought
06:11we'd split it. No, no, no. Go. If you were Dan Hurley, I don't think it's him. No way.
06:22Absolutely not. Sounds like at the very end of the voice, it sounds like him, but the
06:26first thing the guy says doesn't sound like him. It's not me, bro. Dave. Also the way
06:31we've been going, this is crazy that this is what you're opening with. This is why you
06:35should have known you never should have given him the necklace, buddy. We get high and this
06:39is what this quick you want to bring me down this quick, this quick. You're ready. I didn't
06:44think there's anything bringing you down to bring it up. You're all blows too. That's
06:48fucked up. You wouldn't, you wouldn't split a Reese's. I could see you being like, Oh,
06:53I just, this Reese's was on the table. I ate it. Like I was going to you, you splitting
06:58the room. I mean, are you, are you the worst father in the world? Stop, stop, stop, stop.
07:02Kurt. I know. All right. You have to be a speaker in the speaker. We know my burner.
07:08It's Joey Yanks. No, you only have one. You have other burners at one point for sure.
07:14He's laughing. He's laughing a thousand percent Rico. It's definitely a Rico. It's definitely
07:18not. There's absolutely no way it's the laughing. I'm sorry. Hey, now that he's got other burners,
07:24I sent it a big gap. I'm laughing at you. You have other burners, Austin, three people.
07:31They weren't 99%. Three people like that's 100%. Give me one more. One more time. One
07:36more time. Voice is not me. Right? When the guy talks, it doesn't sound like it, but the
07:40end of it is the end of it does. Can we clean out the other stuff? Is there a way either to do that?
07:49Would you start clinging or would you start to no go? If you were Dan Hurley,
07:56you don't want to, you're the worst father in the world. I thought we'd split it.
08:02Oh, it's literally like, why would you split a Reese? Why would you take that away from your
08:11kid? Rico? I mean, let the kid, by the way, exactly. So Rico, you swear it's not you
08:17swear. And that woman sucks. Cause who the fuck, who the fuck is saying like,
08:23you're the worst father in the world for not getting your kid of Reese's.
08:26That could be a convo though. Happened in the boss.
08:31Like the way I keep things is super proud. I'm not walking around the kitchen
08:34on a fucking Fanta space. That's just not me. So that's the other reason you should know.
08:39It ain't me. No, I don't buy that at all. What do you mean? You keep things you're like,
08:44at the risk of, at the risk of things being heard in the background, I'm not doing that.
08:49Never. Yeah, but this is a mistake. They're editing out.
08:56The, I thought doesn't sound like I'm really, I thought we'd split. I thought we'd split.
09:03I thought we'd split the weed. I thought we, it's not him. It's got a weird accent,
09:08it's got a weird accent, but you might have other accents for your burners. I thought we'd split.
09:14I thought we'd split. I thought we'd split. I don't think it's very Massachusetts. That's not
09:19me. I thought we'd split. I thought we'd split. It is like, couldn't sound split. It's Bosco.
09:26The split. It's Bosco. That with a burner on a, on a Fanta college basketball podcast.
09:33And some poor kid dying. Kid can't even eat Rico's fucking taking the kid's candy on a
09:38college basketball podcast on Friday night or something. Rico, come on.
09:42That guy's wife sucks. Whoever that woman is. All right. Bosco says it's on him. It's not me.
09:49I ride. If he says now it's now you're putting me in the rabbit hole. Like this might be the case
09:55for, I want to know who sent it. Cause that guy I want, I it's been a while. I want that guy dead.
10:00Yes. Rico. Well, what a rider David, if it's not you, what do you care?
10:07Cause he's starting the, it's the same thing. Like they said, I was in Afghanistan. They said,
10:10I don't pay taxes. This is how it starts. Your issue should be with Dave and Dan. Cause Dave
10:17clearly talked to Dan and they're doing this. It's not. No, no, not just Dan Kirk. I said,
10:23you're bringing me down. Dan Austin and Gaz all confirmed Bosco. And then Gaz went,
10:29you're going to ambush him with it on a name. Yeah. You're a piece of shit.
10:35Oh, there he goes. I actually don't think it was him.
10:43The end of it really doesn't sound like him though. No split. It does. I agree. The first
10:52it's like, but in then you piece it together. Who else would be on a burner on who's on pants is
10:57like middle of day, big East podcast. Somebody who has solved murders. I can tell you it's
11:03very suspicious. Like there's a tremendous amount of circumstantial evidence. And like, I mean,
11:09obviously like Rico probably takes candy from his kids. A hundred percent. That's for sure.
11:14That's for sure. I think I just picture Rico saying he was white. I thought it was
11:21that's, that's worse than the sound, the sound of the voice, I think is a circumstantial stuff.
11:25Well, that kid's gotta be the most spoiled kid in the world. But couldn't you picture Bosco like
11:29eating the Reese's just being like, I thought we were going to split it. I don't know on a
11:33Paul college, but on Fanta's like biggie space. But Whitney, you know, when she says you're the
11:39worst father in the world, I'm not saying it's Rico, but that woman saying that to the guy,
11:42it's not about the Reese's. Oh, that's what I'm saying. There's a lot more that goes into it.
11:46That was like the final straw. Let me ask you, Dave, because Whitney and I were talking about
11:52this. Um, so this mini golf thing, I guess you shot down was actually my idea. I thought it was
12:01too confusing when I saw it the first time I pitched, can I pitch it to you quickly or no?
12:05It's a great idea, Dave. So, and so the last, so we've done the mini golf three times. We did it
12:09in the Hamptons. Um, Jeff one, we did it in Arizona. I won. We did it last year in Chicago.
12:14Whitney one, none of them were particularly close and dramatic. My pitch was cause we had
12:18the Ryder cup, which we are going to do again. I think this year was so much fun. A couple of
12:22years ago, I liked the idea of a mini golf Ryder cup and it's pretty simple. Two teams of 12. Um,
12:28you do alternate shot matches twice and then a singles match at the end. That's complicated.
12:36And it's, you're never out of it really. Yeah. I don't know. I thought it's harder to do that.
12:42Like alternate shot mini golf. I don't know. It happened so fast. I mean, I said I was willing
12:47to do anything. I didn't love the idea. I'm still willing to do everything. And I also didn't know
12:51like for Whitney. And he said, when they came back, like I was using him as an example, like,
12:57you know, the prize is going to be, it depends on the prize money. A lot of it. Like if you can make
13:02it like, yeah, I could be flushing money down the toilet here. Me too. I've won before, but you
13:07exactly. But like, but I think the person, the viewer watching, if it's a single thing and
13:12everyone's into it, there's like a team aspect, people are fighting. It's a singles match and
13:17like everyone's around the last day. It's close. I think that's more dramatic than Whitney winning
13:20by eight shots or something. I love what Kirk's like people, people are fighting, like, like he's
13:25fighting with somebody. Yeah, for sure. But I think it's a better interactive experience. I mean,
13:30it's your money, but yeah, I don't know. Yeah. Are you playing, Dave? Yeah, I'm playing.
13:38Yeah. I think that at least would guarantee a closer finish as opposed to. Yeah. You definitely
13:44want drama. I get that. Like the idea that was like said to me, it's like, imagine like Frank
13:50and Whitney as a team, alternating shots. I don't know. Yes. Right. Probably. So I don't think that
13:55would be like, great. You just want good players then that were you saying, or, well, it's just
14:00like, it's so he Frank's so bad at mini golf and going back. I the Ryder cup worked. I think the
14:09longer form of normal golf doesn't necessarily translate to many with like switching. Like,
14:15but I don't know. I'm open to anything. I also said, maybe we try to get like
14:19celebs in it and make it more competitive. I don't know. I'm open to anything.
14:23Okay. Oh, yeah. I was just texting me. I want to talk.
14:28This was, you were lighting a, I mean, this is kind of on you. Well, no, that was a gas screw
14:33that up. We should have made him say that line on the show. Oh, the, the, to compare it. I mean,
14:42we have it though. Yeah. Bring it back in and have it say, have him say it. He'll do it. Have
14:48him say it. I want to hear him say it in a normal voice, bring them back as or Austin, but he's
14:52going to probably try to change his voice. I don't know. He was Adam and it wasn't, he didn't
14:59register what is, but at the same time, he, I think he would have exploded when I called his
15:04wife a fucking loser. If it was him. Yeah. Maybe. Yeah. Who knows? Oh, here he's coming back. Oh,
15:12this accent. He's going to throw on for this. Look at that strut.
15:18He looks like he's innocent. He's he's he's carrying himself like he's innocent,
15:23carrying himself like he's legitimately innocent. I will say that.
15:27So Cass says we're going to need to hear you say the line. Yeah. What is the line?
15:32Uh, split it. Right. What is it? Well, I thought we'd split it. Yeah. I thought we'd split it.
15:40It's him. I think. Okay. All right. We're going to, we're going to go to it's the,
15:44I thought in Rico's voice is so good. I actually don't think it's your ego. I actually don't think
15:49it's you. We're going, we're going right to the source. Who's that? The burner that you were on
15:54with? Yeah, sure. Hey hon, happy birthday. You're live on the air right now. So be careful.
16:00Did we ever on you swear on everything? Did we ever get in a fight about Reese's?
16:06No. Okay. This is also a voice. You can take the female voice. We never got in a fight about
16:11Reese's Bosco. You're on a heater. Okay. All right. Happy birthday. He put her voice on. That's
16:18because I'm not on the fucking thing. Dummy. I'm not at, you know, nine 11 planes. But when you
16:26start this shit, I start going down the fucking the tube. And then here we go. And the next thing
16:30you know, I'm back in the fucking mix. I don't think it's him. I don't think it's him. I actually
16:35want to listen. You didn't apologize to bin Laden. Apologize to me though. Cause you know,
16:39it's not true. Dave, I apologize. That's all we want. Rico's stuffing David. What is that?
16:47I absolutely ride. Well, you tried that. I mean, you put him in a bad spot there
16:51and he was just, this is show business. I mean, there's still, you gotta do what you gotta do,
16:56but I ride. Dave wanted nothing more than that to be Rico. I really thought it was him.
17:02So I'm sure it was. I'm still a hundred percent sure it wasn't. Hey, he might've text her. I'm
17:07going to call you probably. And they delete the text. Like the time when he he's like,
17:11let me get the phone. He deleted all the texts and handed the phone. Oh,
17:17good. Call somebody else. Who knows? Good for him.
17:20Congratulations. So Ohio state, Dave, the Buckeyes are the national champion.
17:24Yeah. I don't care. You don't care. I mean, if anything may be good, it keeps it in the big 10
17:29keeps that game. But for me, you know, I said it in real time, once Michigan beat them,
17:33it takes the sting out of it a lot. Maybe I'm just not, and I don't know a ton about
17:38college football, but the Natty's that's the big dog. Like who cares? Yeah. Well,
17:44yeah, I, I, I understand that point of view that this is the first year in the history of college
17:51football, right. That they'd even be in the playoff. So the game, a one game rivalry matters
17:58more and there's a lot to, to a man. If you have Ohio state fans in like a truth confessional,
18:05they would have said going into the year, we care about beating Michigan more than the national
18:08championship. It's revisionist. Yes. It's revision. Tate said it revisionist history.
18:14Now I get it. I do the same thing. If I were them, you have nothing else to stand on. You've got to
18:18grab this thing and run with it. And I would do the same, but I mean, it's just different
18:23college football now is changing. And then I saw the guy that you put up this money for it.
18:29They have a better quarterback coming than him. No, according to this one thing rivals, I don't
18:35know. It's right. We have the number one player in the country. Yeah. No, you don't. You have
18:39number three. No one. And the QB going to Ohio state's number one. No, we have one. Oh, fuck.
18:46Well, we need, but it does change it. I, I, I don't know what else to just, you know,
18:52well, your Massachusetts guy, like, yeah, both are. Yeah. So like, remember it changes, but
18:59you have your Thanksgiving day rivalry, which for a long time was like the game,
19:04like you beat and then they start changing the playoff. So we're in a moving system. I don't
19:09deny that. Like we may look back in 10 years and be like, Oh, maybe Michigan, Ohio state,
19:15if they want to value the game or whatever it does, those rivalries kind of die out. But
19:19this is the first, it's just a very transformational thing because the playoff didn't
19:25exist till this year. So you're hanging your hat on that. Their, their season was over. They were
19:29in the shit bowl had it been last year and every other year prior. Yeah. They were fourth place
19:35team. No, it still matters when the national championship. All right. Let me put this way.
19:39I, this, I would say if someone's like gun in mouth, honest truth, like Jack Sawyer, four year
19:48player at Ohio state, didn't beat Michigan. If you said you graduate with one national title,
19:53never beating Michigan, which you couldn't really even do it till this year, but,
19:56or you beat Michigan, no national title. He'd say, I want to beat Michigan. Like when he
20:01came back for his senior year, he didn't say I wanted him to win a national title. He said,
20:06I came back to beat Michigan. That's a quote. Yes. And then, and then the rundown, you were just
20:13not going to let those guys on. Like, I know I saw Tate. I saw, I hate Tate. I saw, I find him
20:19annoying and repulsive, but I, and he does little things like I met, he never was invited on the
20:24rundown. I, there was never like, Hey, we're doing the rundown. The dog invited him. The dog
20:29did. Oh, well, I mean, the dog doesn't speak for me. Who was on, would you have Rico and Tommy?
20:37Yeah. Yeah, sure. I would add Evon. I like Ev was flying, but you didn't answer his call, Dave,
20:44who, and you weren't asleep. You weren't asleep. Come back. I 100% was asleep.
20:51Our buddy, if they had somehow blown that
20:55you would wait. I didn't even know that. I know you, we know it's seven. I know I was, I was dead
21:01ass asleep. I would've picked up that call and a heartbeat. I would've loved to talk to him. I'm
21:06happy for him. I'm sad. He's got Bell's palsy again. I'm a little, I'm a little, I says my
21:10show. I'm a little worried about it. I have like all kidding. Like he's got to lose like 300 pounds.
21:17Like it's not like 40. Like, yeah, he's the man. I really, every time I met a great dude,
21:22but like the guy I'm saying, I like him or somebody I didn't like, I wouldn't give a fuck,
21:26but like, he's got to get his shit together. Hey, he's fat. What are you going to do?
21:30We got to lose weight. There's a, there's a whole gym in Chicago. He's a young guy. He's not in
21:35Chicago. Oh, I think it's probably a gym in New York city. I'm going to take a wild guess. So I
21:40mean, you know, he's, I love, I love that big guy. So do I, I'm just saying I want, you know,
21:45I'd like him to be healthy. So, uh, Will and Taylor made it official. They are leaving and
21:49they gave me shit for it for some reason. I don't really know. I mean, well, because you were
21:53the issue a little bit, but yeah, how, how, so it wasn't close at all.
21:59No, I think they said 40%. I, and I was doing the math in my head. Uh, and that's about right. So,
22:06you know, I, how does that make the company that they haven't said where they're going
22:13like to know? I would hate that. I'll bid the other person by that much.
22:18Yeah. Like you have to pay 40% more than market rate, which I appreciate. And they
22:23were telling the truth to get them, but that's happens to us a lot. That's how we lose our talent.
22:29Um, and I get hit up. I was gonna make a video. I think I probably said it last year,
22:35I think speaks to how well, it's like crying there to house the health of our company that
22:41all the way back. We, we build talent and then somebody has to overpay by an arm and a leg to
22:46get them. Um, and that's the model and it sucks. I wish we could have kept them, but I've said it,
22:52you can't say what the model is Saturday night live and you build stars and hopefully you keep
22:57them. But if they go and then complain about the model, I was doing a little roster sheet.
23:02If we never lost everybody, like how loaded this company would be with talent. It's insane.
23:12Right. What about the argument from people that are like, you could have kept them,
23:16had you fired like 30 people that we consider useless?
23:21Which I know it sounds ridiculous. I'm just talking about what people say.
23:25I don't even know that that would, that wouldn't pay for them a B that's part of our company.
23:31Yeah. Like if you just have only the super successful and they're kind of on the islands.
23:38Yeah. It's what makes barstool barstool. Um, so I don't begrudge them at all, as I said,
23:46and I think they're pretty accurate and everything they said about it. And we got to
23:50refine people, reload people. And we kind of already did like, you know, I started aggressively
23:57looking. That's how Gruden came and Fred smooth. And we'll still look, um,
24:03it's a lot of pressure to keep refilling it, but so far we've been pretty good at it. And I think
24:09our ecosystem, which is what allows a lot of people to become like big stars. So what are you
24:15going to know? Do you think this company, whoever it is, do you think they know that they're probably
24:20going to lose money when they make an offer like that? Or it's riskier. They just look and make a
24:24splash to cause they're never know. So they're different models. I mean, everybody knows the
24:29gambling companies are like, like, I don't know how they look at it. And I don't know how much
24:34kids like gambling companies have major investors. They, some of them lose tens of millions. Some of
24:39them hundreds of millions, some are making, it's just a different like world. And I think they
24:44look at how much advertising costs and how competitive it is. And they look, it's a sunk
24:50cost. And there's always more value to take audience than keep audience. Like we're not
24:57going to lose. Barstool is not going to lose virtually. We'll lose a little maybe, but almost
25:03any audience by those guys leaving. Right. Because they gain a big, big, right. Correct. Yeah. They
25:09bring crowds. So yeah, that's a whole bunch. It almost, I don't, I have no idea where they're
25:13going, but it almost certainly has to be part of the gambling company, right? That kind of money.
25:17There's no way in this world. It's not. So what's the playbook for these companies? You've talked
25:21about forever losing so much money. Like what's the final game plan for these? I think the final
25:26game plan is like to be the one of the last standing and they're like waiting everyone out.
25:35Yeah. And then you go from losing money, losing money, losing money to suddenly making so like
25:41you look at the companies that are traded on stock market that have VCs, they're willing to
25:47withstand big losses because there's huge gains. So you may lose money for 10 years or whatever it
25:53is. And then once you turn it around, you erase all those deficits quickly. So I think that's the
26:00model. It's like the streaming companies with like, they just started making money. Some of them,
26:05I mean, Disney plus, they were losing hundreds of millions of dollars a quarter.
26:10Are they losing that much competition? Like are people dropping, dropping away and I think it just
26:16disappeared spending so much on stuff, you know, on advertising and just budget on stuff like that.
26:21It took them, it's taken them forever to make money. I think, I think Netflix just started
26:25making money a couple of years ago. I don't know that any of the gambling companies are making
26:29money yet. That's bizarre. Which is wild. I mean, given the amount of gambling going on. So it
26:36sucks. It definitely, I find it odd that people are mad. Like I've seen some people mad.
26:40Like I have a friend who I saw a comment, like chirping, busting with the boys.
26:46That's like the classic story. Like, that's so good. They're there. It's because they liked
26:50them and they liked the company, which is great. But it's like, but like this guy,
26:55these guys are getting offered enormous amounts of money more. Like what are you supposed to do?
26:59Yeah. And people get mad when we're losing talent. It's like, if I was paying out every time we lost
27:07one of these big ones, we won't have a company. Like I can't, then the whole thing just falls
27:12apart. So I'm using now, it's a very sports team, SNL. It's like you, you, you lose guys. It's just,
27:21you can't pay it. You can't have every position be the most highly paid person or else it's
27:26impossible to operate. So, I mean, going down that list, man, if we had the full,
27:31I don't think anybody really has produced better talent in the last 20 years than we have. There's
27:39some, you know, they bounce around or existing, but relatively unknown. And it's all, I guess
27:47it's all, what do you describe? Like, would you say biz was an unknown when we got him? Like,
27:52what was his level of stardom when he came here? Cause he's obvious, like
27:56within hockey, it was, it was pretty big, but that's hockey, right? It's like so small,
28:02but now, yeah, now, I mean, it's just exploded. What would you say about McAfee McAfee? I would
28:08say it was a relative unknown. Like if you in Indianapolis, people know him as like the punter,
28:13but like no one else was offering him jobs and he used us to catapult into the next stratosphere.
28:19Cooper was an unknown. Jenna marbles was an unknown. Like we, we have mega stars that have
28:26come out of here, mega stars. So, but it's the nature of the beast. And we said it and you just
28:32got to redo it as long as we have enough talent here. And you know, I, I, your favorite guy, Dan,
28:39like he has probably left and PFT and myself to a degree, lots of money on the table.
28:46Like they could have made more leaving. They like it here. And everyone reaps the benefits of that
28:53because you have this core group that has stayed together chicklets for a long time and it makes
29:00everything go. It makes everything go where if these people look around, like I want to get
29:06top, top, top dollar, we're probably not right place for it. Me included.
29:11Kirk and I have talked before, like we'd never be anywhere else. I don't care how long it is.
29:15You could offer me 10 X. I'm not, I wouldn't. Part of it is like, fuck you guys. Like,
29:20it's pretty easy. People don't understand like your book and flights, your book and hotel,
29:24like every single thing that barstool takes care of is all of a sudden it's like, Hey, this is on
29:30you. Like, I know for me, it's like, I love the company. And I couldn't even imagine having to
29:34deal with all the little things. Yeah. And it's like, Will and Taylor were saying the other day,
29:39I listened to their podcast and like, you can say and do, well, I thought I couldn't until a few
29:43months ago. You can say and do whatever you want at this company. And maybe you'll get fired for
29:47four minutes, but like, it doesn't like Dave doesn't fucking know. He has no idea what we're
29:52talking about. Like he doesn't care. So, I mean, that's, I think that's a trade off look for Will
29:56and Taylor. The money's huge. I totally get it, but like you do lose a little, you know, the fun
30:03and the kind of craziness and the madness is gone. Like wherever they're going, that's not going to
30:08be recaptured. Like, no, and they know that. Yeah. Right. And that's, then that's the deal
30:11you make. Like they'll continue their show and they'll have fun with their show, but
30:15like there's no interaction, like with the, whatever fucking place there is nothing else.
30:20So you're on your own and it's, it's different. Yeah. But the money's, you know, I mean, the
30:25money's the money. I, I do think Taylor's without, I have known nothing. My guess is Taylor is more,
30:32was more willing to go than Will without knowing that's just, I don't know because Taylor's made so
30:37much and I don't know either, but Taylor has made so much money. Yeah. He's so rich. Yeah.
30:42Will is more ingrained in the stuff. He was certainly doing more and will loves it. I mean,
30:48and maybe there's a chance we can still do stuff with them. I've kind of, we'll see.
30:53I've heard some of that. You don't know.
30:57We're going to have to be up to the company they're going to, to decide that.
31:00Oh yeah. And also a little bit, because obviously we're drafting house,
31:03like we're purely drafting. So I would need, even if they don't legally have to approve it,
31:11like they're a huge sponsor. We have a great relationship and I'm not going to like
31:17fuck over them either. They're like, you know, this kind of hurts us. So there's a,
31:20there's a bunch of things we got to work out on that end.
31:23You hired Yandel full-time. Is that, is that, is that you got, how's that work?
31:26Wait, is that like, that's, that's, yeah, that's biz and I, so we've been,
31:30I grew up with Keith and then biz and him became really close in Phoenix.
31:34And then we just realized like at some point this would be perfect. So he fits in. Awesome.
31:38It's great to have him aboard great top five, least, least impressive person
31:44performance I've had in person. Well, these guys built Keith Yandel up like this guy's
31:51fucking cross between Eddie Murphy, Chris rock, Jerry Seinfeld. Like you're going to be in tears.
31:58Like when you meet him, I was the least funny human. I like, he didn't say one funny thing.
32:03I was waiting to review a hard thing to be funny at. Like I just kept waiting. I'm like,
32:10when is this guy going to lay it on me? Nothing. I remember I got a text like,
32:15what the, it was something like, what the fuck? He just did a pizza view with Keith. Didn't say
32:20one funny thing. I'm like, dude, he's like not exactly the easiest scenario to be funny in,
32:27but he's very funny on chicken. So that's great. Is smooth going to do a show with Gruden?
32:32Like what will smooth that guy's funny. Yeah, he is. He's great pickup. So smooth is going to be
32:36on the NFL show with Gruden and we're going to hopefully do more. He may do something with
32:40Brandon Walker. So yeah, we're, we're resigning. Is he not, he's been teasing. He's been teasing
32:51for months. This is, he's got, he's got his outdate like teasing that like he won't be back.
32:56No, he's got like a, I forget what it is. Some date March or something. He's gone. Is that,
32:59is that just a wrestling actor? But I feel like mostly sports is pretty big Dave. So like he has
33:06like a leg up to be like, raise, I want to raise, right? This is what the show, like, I mean,
33:14this is the unnamed show. We're talking all things barstool once a week, 30 minutes. I'd
33:19be very surprised if brand Walker was not with this company until he dies. Okay, good. Okay,
33:25good. We like that. And frankly, besides I see Frank, the tank till he dies. Okay. Okay, good.
33:35Dave, you really think that any of the guys at that inauguration could just steal Bezos his wife?
33:42Yeah. Really? Oh yeah. Well, I don't know about that crew. I don't know that Zuckerberg's an
33:48improvement over Bezos, but I don't think she needs like the richest guy in the world. I think
33:55she'd go to like the 200th richest guy in the world. If he was like a younger, normal, good
34:00looking, like, yes. What'd you take? What'd you, what'd you, what's your guys take on the wearing
34:05like the bra? I thought it was fucking out of control. I don't, I don't, I mean, Hey, if you're
34:13going out to dinner and like, she looks like that for sure. It's the president dinner in Miami,
34:18like maybe not dinner in Boston dinner, dinner, dinner in Indiana. I don't think you're wearing
34:23that outfit. That's crazy. That was a, and Bezos has to know you're not like, can you like put a
34:31shirt on or something? That was, that was in Zuckerberg sitting there and then he's liked
34:37their picture after on say this to defend him. If you're sitting next to her and she like,
34:42every guy is going to look one. My wife said the same thing. She goes,
34:45you're putting your tits in his face. Yeah. But you don't have to like it on Instagram after
34:51I mean, like any guy in the world is doing that. I mean, human nature, that's a very,
34:57it's weird that like, they just like left that morning from the hotel and she's like, I'm wearing
35:02this. And he's like, well, all right. You have to, that's, I don't know. What's crazier. So do
35:09you think that it's not like you have to put it? Are we three old guys? Cause I know. Okay. Okay.
35:15On this one. Cause it's nuts to me. So Dave, are you saying she would, she would thump another
35:20guy who has to be rich? Or what if it was like some stallion, like 28 year old that like a club?
35:27No, she's not doing that. All right. If you get $200 million, would she leave him for that guy?
35:31Yeah. I think if it was the combo, the stallion 200 million, would she leave him for you? No,
35:38okay. You got a lot of money. Have you seen how Bezos looks like a fucking man rocking his body
35:45compared to Dave? No, no, no, no, no. If you are that old and you get that body, you're like me,
35:52that's bad. It's like David Dobrik. I think I thought that was crazy. That's like repulsive.
36:01That was, and that, that was basically coming back from almost killing his buddy. Correct.
36:05On like a boat. That's right. That was his comeback. But listen, any guy who is that like,
36:18that looks good. That's like a major, like red flag. Like mentally something's not right. If
36:24I look like that, my wife would be, I think she'd leave. She'd be like, what the fuck happened to
36:28you? Like, I mean, that's like, that's frightening. It's crazy. Anybody like putting over
36:35the age of like 18, putting like ripped pictures on social media, like you're demented, demented.
36:43That speaks to like, obviously Bezos was like sort of a nerdy it's it's that thing. Like, you know,
36:48Zuckerberg does with like the MMA stuff. They all do. Yeah. Zuck still the funniest story. I mean,
36:54Zuck's insane. There was a story in the New York times that Zuck got choked out in an MMA match
37:01and was snoring. He wrote a letter to the New York times saying he was grunting.
37:06It just shows no matter how rich you are, you ever lived, like, it's just a weird,
37:11it just all goes back to insecurity. Yeah. You know, what I wonder is Elon, like,
37:17because Elon, depending on how you look to his credit or detriment, like he went in for Trump
37:23when it wasn't when it wasn't obvious he was going to win and people kind of destroyed him.
37:29And now you have these other guys like Zuck and Bezos, and they're acting like they're best
37:34friends. And they just they just change teams after the election. It's like Elon must be like,
37:41what the why are these guys next? Kirk had a good take on his show. I think you're going there.
37:45My take on Elon is he's so weird. Trump is uncomfortable with really weird people. He's
37:50going to get rid of them. That's going to end bad. I feel like wasn't there a report he was already
37:54sick of them? Yeah. Bezos fits the Trump mold like good looking wife, like in shape, like even
38:00richer. Like I think he's going to I think that'll be his guy. Plus, you know, Elon's a Nazi. So
38:05there's also that. Dave, as a Jew, is that is that a Jew? No, no, no, no, no problem with it. I mean,
38:12he's a weirdo. He's like Dwight Schrute. He's doing this. He's pounding tables like Rico's
38:20done the Nazi salute like 20 times. Jesus Christ. Yes. 20 times. Not on purpose, but yes.
38:27The video of this. Oh, yeah. In this video of everybody. No, I did not think I was doing the
38:32Nazi salute. I think I think he just thought he was being funny. I think he thinks he's like funny.
38:37I think there are clips of like other politicians, but he had that straight arm to it. Like it was
38:45used to it. I think I'm out of the camera. I think Bosco's done it. I think he's also like
38:51autistic and weird. Yeah, he is definitely autistic for sure. And then and then, Kirk.
38:56Yeah, I like Baron. I kind of like you're calling him a creep. Oh, I love Baron. You tall. He makes
39:02me nervous. He's he looks like Trump. He's like 20. He's like 11 feet. What do you think he said
39:08to Biden when he was? I think he was nice. I think this is friendly to him. But Biden's face just
39:14went, oh, he's Biden's got no idea. But he was smiling and he said something and his face went
39:19to just. Ice just walked through the door. Oh, yeah, he's here. He's here for Pegasus. It's it's
39:25forty five degrees. I saw that. Yeah, I told I go, you better bring a winter jacket. He's like,
39:31please, no. He comes early just to sit in the pool for 48 hours. What time was his flight?
39:36I know he got here. He got here. So he said the sun is quite literally cloudy and 40.
39:41You got all weekend or no? It's not supposed to be nice. It's snowing in the panhandle.
39:47You got not to pat myself on the back, but am I over overreacting to these fucking beat writers?
39:52I mean, they're just such babies like. It's crazy, though, that that you are actually
39:57getting all the source. There's eight. I know, Kirk, who are you? Why would I tell you that?
40:03Well, there's a part of me. Lunatic is your source. There's a part of me that at the beginning,
40:08Kirk, let's say you're quarterback Kirk at the beginning, I'm like, he's just making these stuff
40:13and he's just hitting home runs. But now I'm convinced that you got somewhere you couldn't
40:18with the woman. No, I have sources, multiple sources within the organization. But like these
40:24guys, beat writers who for years they jump on people, they want to be accountable, answer this,
40:28answer that. And then you ask them one question, they fucking melt. We had Pizzutti on that dummy.
40:32We had Bolin on the hangs, hangs up on us. I'm sorry. Yeah, it's just the record. I don't know
40:37that I qualify as you had Bolin on. If I saw the clip that you're referring to, you prank called.
40:47He let it go to voicemail an hour earlier and then he goes, try him again.
40:53This is the Kirk definition. We had him on the show.
41:03Hey, Ben, you're live to tape. It's Kirk Minahan,
41:05varsal sports, Kirk Minahan show. How are you? Oh, yeah, I'm on the show. Frank called. I order
41:1360 pizzas to his house. That's a prank call. I fucking called. That's my question. I'm not a
41:18bowling guy. So get ready. I got I got plenty more over this game. That's all I'll say. Plenty
41:23more. What do you guys think of White Sox day's video? Excellent. So I there's just like a feeling
41:29you get of like the secondhand embarrassment. You can't describe it. That was one night like
41:34I clicked out of it so quick and I feel he put a lot of like effort. He thought it was a
41:41masterpiece, which, again, makes it so special. Is it going viral as he thought? I think it's
41:48going viral for all the wrong reasons. I mean, maybe I know he's nuts, but does he
41:53he really thought it was good? It wasn't. Yes. Oh, I don't know. No, no. He thought it was good.
41:57100 percent. Yeah, but that's how do you know that? Like, I think he knew he he's fucking
42:04kissing himself. He didn't. There he is. There he is. You knew that was like his face.
42:12This guy's crazy. He's muted.
42:19You're muted. His face looks like a psychopath.
42:23Him being like my contract's not up till January 1st. Can we unmute him? Could we need to?
42:33He's like an acapella version. There he goes. There you go. When you're in showbiz,
42:38you got to do what you got to do, right? That's what you just said.
42:42Do you think were you kidding around or you think it was good in actuality?
42:45No, this was I swear to God, I tweeted that out and I couldn't have muted it faster. I knew
42:52exactly the reception it was going to get. I couldn't watch it. It was the most cringeworthy
42:57thing of all time. You think I think that was good, Dave? Yes. Are you insane? I didn't think
43:03now. Are you insane? You made it. Yeah, I know I. I don't want to say I want to be
43:11viral for cringe. We haven't played it yet, have we? Yeah. Well, I. Okay. I will say I did think
43:16the lyric, the lyrics were funny. Okay. Oh yeah. It was the most cringeworthy. If, if anybody,
43:25if an actual like country star or something saying that, whatever me singing, did you fly to LA?
43:32Paris? Yeah, I did. No, you did. Oh, why didn't you just make it Chicago? You couldn't do it
43:40in Chicago, Dave? Oh, I, I did the, I did the music video in the green screen here. Yeah.
43:45But I, I, it was a troll. I understand how, but why did he go to LA? Watch that? Uh,
43:53the guys who had the idea are out in LA and they have a music producer studio out there.
43:59Who wrote it? So Bruce Springs, have you ever, there's a band called a wall nation. They were
44:06big, like 10 years ago. My buddy who I co host backstage with are still backstage
44:11is a founding member of a wall nation. He wrote it, uh, in like 90 minutes, he said,
44:17and he sent it to me. I'm like, all right, this is funny. I'll do it. But this is going to be the
44:21worst thing that's ever hit the internet. And he's like, trust me. I know. I mean, of course
44:27you think I'm looking at that. And I think like job well done, Dave, are you kidding me?
44:32Oh, it's a job well done. I mean, it's, I mean, you've been to LA to shoot a music video for it.
44:38That's kind of crazy. I didn't fly to LA to shoot a music video for it. I did that here. I flew to
44:44LA to get out of town for a few minutes. And my buddy's happening to be out there.
44:48Cause we had the week off between Christmas and new year's. So I went out there. So what,
44:53what, what LA has nothing to do with this song. Does that have anything to do with the song then
44:57that you were in LA? Well, we recorded it in LA, but I was, I was there anyways. I went there
45:02for Chicago. I'm confused. What was, what was recorded in LA? The song I recorded in LA,
45:07the music video was shot in Chicago music video. I had, I didn't even plan on doing the music video
45:14until our production staff reached out and they're like, I got dibs on shooting the music
45:18video. I'm like, well, here's the song. And he's like, Oh, we can have, can I see the original
45:22text you sent to Dan? Cause everybody around this that I've talked to has basically said,
45:30you thought it was very funny. I think they're piling up. I think the lyrics are funny. I
45:34sincerely do think the lyrics are funny. Um, but obviously that does not outweigh how cringeworthy
45:41it is that I am seeing them in that I'm in that music video, like kissing myself.
45:45You, do you know how uncomfortable it was for me to wear that? It was like, it was brutal.
45:51Who gave you the idea? Like it's such a random idea.
45:55So obviously you guys have your inside jokes on your podcast. As we do here, Oliver Anthony,
46:03like a little less than a year ago, the redhead dude who pissed off all the liberals because of
46:07his song, Richmond, North and Richmond. Oh yeah. Remember that? That's where it started. It's like,
46:12Oh, let's have Dave sing like the liberal anthem. That's where it started. And then I got the
46:18lyrics. Then we shot the video. I'm like, this is literally the most cringeworthy thing of all
46:23time, but I think it'll do some numbers. So go ahead and have fun with it at my expense. I know
46:30fully how cringeworthy it is. I filmed it. So I threw it out there. Obviously it got under,
46:37you know, Dave's desk and he is embarrassed as he should be. And that's that. I mean,
46:43I saw it before it was released. I like, yeah, because they, they thought they were
46:47going to get like canceled. We didn't even say one swear word in the song.
46:52No, you can't get canceled or something like that. You can get canceled for being like you,
46:57you wouldn't get canceled by like a political move. You just cancel yourself for being so
47:02awkward and weird. Yeah. Yeah. I'm watching, uh, I'm watching Dave and the thing Whitney had
47:09brought up. Dave sent you a thing about your contract in the middle of December.
47:13So last year we, I signed my contract for 2024 in March and it was backdated until
47:20a new year's day or whatever. So when I signed it in March, I, when we were renegotiating or
47:26whatever this year, I'm like, wait, I thought I signed in March. And then he's like, no,
47:30it was, I was like, oh yeah, it's backdated for two weeks from now or whatever.
47:34Oh, okay. That's correct today, Dave. Was that what he's coming? Correct. He's got all his facts.
47:41He knew the video was a joke. I mean, I do think that I think the lyrics are funny. I do think the
47:48lyrics are sincere. I'd have to rewatch the lyrics. I think I want to read the lyrics now and not
47:53listen. Like just read them. Yeah. All right. Thanks Dave. Is that it? That's it. I don't
47:59believe. Okay. Anything else? I don't believe him. Don't believe him. Dave. If, um, the commanders
48:06go on to win, I saw this on the little sheet. Will Nate be allowed, like invited to the Superbowl?
48:13I don't know. So I was like, I don't know why Nate's going to Chicago for the streams,
48:18why are we paying for it? Um, and I told him he couldn't go anymore.
48:24No, I reversed it because just even the jinx factor he's been there. So he is going, um,
48:30but what's he going to do there just to be there? He's not going to be on content. Is he,
48:38well, he's in new Orleans or like what would the point to him being in new Orleans?
48:43Like he'd be at the game. Like when they don't, they stream people from like max was at the Eagle
48:49sewer balls. And I leave that to PFT. It like, he's the lead commanders guy. If you want them
48:54there. But before we go away, I mean, are we not going to talk about Peaky blinders?
48:59Oh, this kid, I don't, uh, this kid he's morphed again. He's morphed again.
49:07I thought he was disappearing from content. He's lost a lot of weight.
49:15Hair is long in the back. Wait a minute. Did you take him or did I take him in the way?
49:21You took him on fanatics live ripping bombshells, 900 series,
49:26a ripping solar flares, 2.5 K series. And of course, he's like hateable quality too.
49:41What company of fanatics fanatics? Is that a show? Is that a new show?
49:46They opened cards. Like that's classic Coleman too. Like he doesn't even commit to the accent
49:50in the middle. He's like, fuck it. I got, I'm going to work to do it. He definitely
49:54doesn't like cards. Like this is where he ended up. So where are they based out? Aren't they
49:58just in his uncle's basement, New York, New York. By the way, Kirk has this thing about his show
50:06where for some reason, I don't know. I never seen anything like it where everyone hates the current
50:12producers and then they leave. And then everyone wishes they'd come back. This is like four
50:17different people. This is happened with the book. Everyone hates everyone loves. But why is that
50:21with your show only? I have no idea, but everybody loves Coleman. I would say that's not like
50:27Barstool sort of has that. Yes. Yeah. When someone leaves, suddenly they're like, you're the best.
50:34How have we been doing anything? And meanwhile, it's like, they've been trashing this person
50:38for like two years straight. And if that person came back three months, like, I fucking hate this
50:42guy. And then it's, it's, it's, but yeah, Cole, I can't. Coleman definitely is a rich kid. He's
50:47definitely on those epic. There's no question about that. Like, he's definitely on those epic.
50:51He's definitely a rich kid because you want to have, you have these closeted, you attract closeted
50:55rich people. Like a mutt is fucking rich. Mutt's closet homosexual. Yeah. Oh, closeted rich people.
51:01I see. Yeah. Coleman's actually rich. All these closets, like his parents have money. He grew up
51:06in like fancy New Jersey. Like Clemmer. I mean, Clemmer threatening to quit if he's not the
51:10executive producer of, of if you can. I got a text from Clemmer after the show last week.
51:16So did I. Yeah. I just said, said double down. Hey, it's Clemmer. I just wanted to,
51:24I just wanted to apologize for snapping on you. I was way out of line. I'm taking a long break
51:29from drinking. I've been getting way too aggressive and shitty. I'm pretty ashamed
51:33how I treated people Tuesday night and at the house during survivor. You had the good fortune
51:38of being there for both. I will be trying to try to be less of a dickhead. Next time I see you,
51:42I said long live the rat race. Sources told me that Clemmer was so drunk that he missed his flight.
51:51It was 1230 and he was ordering screwdriver screwdrivers. I go, you're drinking orange juice
51:58over the game. He was still going over the game. Like, like, Oh, if Rowan, if I got Ron and he was
52:04fucking, then he was screaming about rat race and the amazing, the best part of that
52:08is how delusional, like he thinks you give a fuck Whitney, like that apology,
52:15like you care about Clemmer off his rocker. What's annoyed as shit that Clemmer still thinks
52:22if you ask him who finished second and survived me on Ray, he would say him.
52:26Like he feels like he's admitted now. He never had a shot, but yeah, he's got some
52:30serious fucking issues, but yeah. Anything else or no, no, that's all we got. All right.
52:35Uh, so many golf, so many golf, you don't know. I'm willing to do anything. I, I, I get what
52:40you're saying to a vote of the people. Yeah. I get what you're saying and try to keep it close.
52:44I just like, you really think like every other shot works in mini golf, like you're an inch
52:49away from the hole. I don't know, but here's the thing though. Some, yeah, I get what you're saying.
52:53You all, first of all, you alternate every hole off the T that doesn't switch right. With like
52:57in the Ryder cup, like you would do the odds. I would do the even say, but there are certain
53:01pots that are like eight or nine feet. That could be a thing. Or if you had a bad tee shot.
53:06Yeah. I just think it's very far. If you're playing with a good player,
53:11there's a bunch of tap-ins, but you're saying, I think the purse was 40 grand last year. So like,
53:17if it's 12 people, that's fucking, it's not a lot of dough for the way. That's also what I was
53:22saying. Wait, boy, I really had my back. No, I got your back. I went to Hank right away and said,
53:27Kirk has a great idea, but I think the prize purse raised prize pool would have to be bigger
53:32to make it worthwhile for the play. I think the people watching last year didn't give like the
53:38people watching don't care. If Whitney wins $40,000, the viewer doesn't care about that.
53:42No million, maybe, but like, I don't think Brian Whitney wins 40,000. If you're watching, no,
53:47again, listen, we, I get the ultimate idea. You don't want people to run away with the tournament.
53:52I get that's any tournament, right? So it's how do you make sure you have drama? And yes,
53:59that money, 40 grand when it's a tough example or whatever, but like for Bosco,
54:03they're going to care because he's going to care. Not that he'd be there.
54:06That's a lot of Reese's. That's a lot of Reese's a lot of Reese's. All right.
