Dave (2:07)

You deserve to have your name on that trophy.

Dan (2:09)

You do.

Dave (2:10)

You deserve to have that name on trophy.

Dan (2:12)

Yes. So good job, Rico.

Dave (2:14)

Attaboy.

Dan (2:15)

Victory Speech. Victory speech. Speech.

Rico Bosco (2:17)

Yeah. We gotta get. We gotta even it up now. You guys had two before I even had one. So we gotta even it up. We gotta keep winning and grind it out. I got a good system where I shorten the cards and everyone's like, oh, he's playing four. I try to pick winners. I picked winners. At 53.

Dave (2:29)

In your head, you saw the board. You're hot. In college basketball. Michigan over easy last night. Easy, simple. You had a winner the night before, too.

Rico Bosco (2:40)

Yep. Two in a row.

Dave (2:41)

Yeah.

Dan (2:41)

My boy did it. He did it.

Dave (2:43)

I was on that over last night.

Dan (2:45)

I was too. I was.

Rico Bosco (2:46)

All of a sudden, you're my biggest fan. I did see that. Yeah.

Dave (2:50)

I guess I'll say now I'm officially a Rider.

Rico Bosco (2:54)

I'm back. Why is that? Like a week until I do like.

Dave (2:58)

I, I, I'm back.

Rico Bosco (3:00)

I get accused of not being in a company meeting for four minutes. Here we go.

Dave (3:05)

I, I was Jackie, I never said that. I I, I, I'm firmly back in the Rider camp.

Dan (3:11)

Yeah. Let's go.

Dave (3:12)

The Riders are regards.

Dan (3:17)

All right. Do we. How do we. Where do you guys want to start? Surviving? We got a million things to talk about. Yeah, I have a lot of things, but I. If someone wants to start with some. I mean, Pink Wedding was pure chaos. Probably the like, I, I'll start with this. That show is so well done by our producers and everyone, and they work so hard on it. It's crazy to think back because, like, everything that happens happens in like 12 hours. Like, I was thinking about it. And the. From the Roan elimination or no, sorry, Whitney elimination to Pink Wedding, where I start to kind of go in my dissent of I don't want to be here anymore all happened within like 24 hours. And it's just bang, bang, bang, bang. And that Pink Wedding, I mean, the way they created that thing was insane. And it got the result of just chaos everywhere.

Rico Bosco (4:09)

Yeah.

Dave (4:09)

I have a question. When does this show come out?

Dan (4:11)

It's coming out tomorrow morning. So I. That was what I wanted to talk about as well, because so people are gonna see the episode where I ask out and I quit and I fucking hate myself for it because I went into. Yeah, go ahead.

Dave (4:23)

Well, I haven't seen that. My. I go, I. I was gonna say something. I don't know how to deal with it. So I'm gonna go on the unnamed and. And those two babies are just crying and all everyone eliminated is Christ City right now. Nothing's their fault. It's like the old Patriots when we. They go in there and they beat you and then it's Belichick. That. Whatever. So I on this show, don't want to give too much of my ammo.

Dan (5:00)

Okay. Them. That's fair on what.

Dave (5:03)

Because I'm gonna go fight. So if I say everything I think now they're gonna have.

Dan (5:07)

Yeah.

Dave (5:08)

I don't want to lay out my statement.

Dan (5:10)

All right. So correct. I mean, Rico and I could give our sides because we. We don't have. We're not going on unnamed, obviously. So from my perspective.

Rico Bosco (5:17)

Well, you never know with me.

Dan (5:19)

Yeah, that's true.

Dave (5:19)

No, we're waiting. We're waiting for. To bring guests on the unnamed till the entire show is complete.

Dan (5:25)

Yeah.

Dave (5:25)

Because we don't want to give away. There's still a lot of show.

Dan (5:28)

Yeah. So my. So from my perspective, I. Last season, I got voted out in four hours. I was so mad at myself, I didn't take it seriously. I was watching football. I'm a fucking moron. Hated myself from that. Everyone's like, you didn't care. You didn't care. I went into this season and I was like, I'm going to play as hard as I possibly can. I was like, I'm going to. I'm going to get into this game. I'm going to learn this game. I had Tommy teach me the game because I've never seen an episode of Survivor. So I went into this season being like, I'm going to play as hard as I possibly can play now. I think I played really hard, and I played well. I didn't fully expect how much of a mental toll it would take on me of having people as mad as they were at me after they vote out. Which I should have realized because when Dave voted me out last year, I was mad, like, I should have.

Dave (6:20)

Furious. Jerry got me.

Dan (6:22)

Like, I should have realized, like, when you get voted out by someone, you're pissed. That's just what it is.

Jack (6:26)

Even if you're not the person that votes them out.

Dan (6:27)

Correct. So, like, and I was a. About that. Like, I wanted to vote someone out and also have them be like, oh, I'm not mad at you. You can't do that. You can't have. In this game, you can't have it both ways. So when it, like, it started with the Whitney, I felt bad about that. The Roan, I felt bad about that. Francis, I felt bad about that. Kirk, I felt bad about that. And it's like I shut down, and I hate, hate, hate that I shut down. I'm so mad at myself. I should have just fucking kept on playing hard all the way through the game. But I didn't. And I, I like it was partially paranoia, partially the sleep. Kirk obviously takes, take, takes a shot at me and he's mad at me and he does the Newton stuff. And it, it bothered me.

Dave (7:08)

I, well, he's a terrorist.

Dan (7:09)

Well, no, but I'm being.

Dave (7:11)

He's a terrorist. Like ironically, I'll say it on like they're, they're, this is why I don't give away but like they're saying you and I with the contract stuff, which. I'll get it. But the true terrorist is Kirk Minihan because he's the only one on the show with the ability to hold a grudge forever.

Dan (7:30)

Right?

Dave (7:30)

So he's, he's the actual real terrorist. I love Kirk, but he's a terrorist.

Dan (7:35)

Well, yeah, and he, he obviously hates me now and he thinks I'm gonna try to, you know, be like, try to smooth it over. I'm. I'm not going to. He hates me. If he hates me, I'll hate him. Like, I, I'm not, I'm going to stand in the pocket on this one. I'm not going to be mopey about it. He hit me where obviously it bothered me with the Newton stuff. And it is what it is. Like I, I think I've, it used to bother me more. I think it's bothered me less and less. I don't talk about it a lot. You know, Chicago is my home. That's why I moved back here. But I, Yeah, and then I shut down. And I'm a pussy for shutting down. I hate, I hate myself for shutting down and wanting out of that game. I was like mentally tortured through the whole process of. Again, I went in seeing like, play hard, prove to yourself that you care. And as I got further in the game and I, and I was, I was making moves and I had a strategy. I don't think a lot of people had a strategy. That's the thing. There's a lot of people didn't have a strategy in this game.

Dave (8:31)

They're fucking brain dead morons in this game.

Dan (8:34)

Right?

Dave (8:35)

There are apps of people who are, I mean, Will Compton moron, Taylor La Juan Martin. Biz doesn't have a brain cell, Whitney. These are morons. I saw a quote. They are mad that the smartest guy in the room was the smartest guy in the room. These people, the dumbest. I don't even know what they're crying about. That's why I wanted Kirk out, by the way. He's the only one with a functioning brain amongst those idiots.

Dan (9:03)

Will.

Jack (9:04)

Will had a straight. Will was thinking, right.

Dave (9:06)

Will didn't play his key.

Dan (9:09)

Oh. And so that. And so the key.

Rico Bosco (9:11)

So gotta play the key.

Dan (9:12)

Kirk is. I, I. Kirk's mad at me for a million different reasons. The key part, we get to the pink wedding and the. The paranoia. You guys agree, like, paranoia at this point in the game is just insane. Well, not for Dave, but, Rico, like.

Rico Bosco (9:26)

Yeah, I was in a bad spot, too. They kept being like, why'd you give him the necklace? He was torturing me.

Dan (9:31)

Well, Rico, I want to talk about you because it's so classic that this whole thing, like, you were just.

Dave (9:35)

Yeah.

Dan (9:35)

Oh, you just. Everything. Everything that's happened is like you're the centerpiece of it. But anyway.

Rico Bosco (9:40)

Well, the Dan.

Dave (9:41)

The Dan Kirk.

Rico Bosco (9:42)

In other news, it's gonna get dark tonight.

Dave (9:44)

What? The Dan. The Dan Kirk Riff is 100 on you. I told that.

Dan (9:48)

Yeah, it's. It's crazy. But so we go. We go into. We're going into pink wedding. I made an alliance with Ria, which everyone knows. I did ask Hank before the game even started. I was like, if you're not cool with this, I obviously will not do it. I thought that was the smartest thing, like, to play the game hard. No one expected two people who don't even speak to be allied. Ria played me like a fiddle. She did a great job, you know, playing me like a fiddle when I'm in the game. And she. When she comes into that room and she's like, your name's being tossed around before we go to pink wedding. Paranoia goes fucking insane in my head. So I'm like, I'm back to. I have to figure out a way to survive. I didn't go into the pink wedding being like, here's my plan. I was like, I'm going to survive. I win it. I win the idol the first time. Second time we go to a vote. The thing that Will said when I was watching, he said something like, back to the original plan. Was that what he said, back to the original plan? I was like, I'm the original plan. They're all going to vote for me here.

Dave (10:47)

But he wasn't involved.

Dan (10:48)

Right.

Dave (10:49)

He didn't know.

Dan (10:49)

Right, Right. So when I hear I'm. He said, back to the original plan. I'm watching. I'm like, fuck, you're such an idiot. Because you should have just realized that you had the numbers. You shouldn't have been paranoid, but I'm obviously paranoid. I go in there, I'm going to vote for Kelly. I told Kirk I wasn't going to vote for him. I was not going to vote for him in that round. And then I do the key and I lose my vote. And then I flustered and I lied to him. And yeah, I shouldn't have lied to him, but like everything else, I was just going self preservation in a game. And the biggest regret I have is that I didn't keep pushing through. I gave up. I'm a pussy about that. I hate myself for that.

Dave (11:24)

And I was a mistake.

Dan (11:25)

It was a mistake. It was a mistake.

Dave (11:27)

By the way, I was happy when you said it.

Dan (11:29)

Yeah, I know.

Dave (11:29)

I was still. I was still full game mode. And you and I were. I was at the point of I don't know what's gonna happen because we were. I thought we were about to go after each.

Dan (11:39)

Right.

Dave (11:39)

And because I feel like I'm out. I see.

Dan (11:43)

Yeah. I couldn't. I got to a point where it's like, it was Whitney, it was Francis, it was Ron, it was Kirk. I was like, all right, now I'm gonna have to stab either Dave or Rico in the back. And it's like, I don't know if I can fucking mentally just keep doing this. And I pussied out like hand up. I hate myself.

Dave (11:58)

Microcosm we've talked about a little bit and obviously everything bleeds like barstool overall and people. And we're here because of Dan's and I's personalities a little bit. Like we're both sort of doing the same thing. I relish it.

Dan (12:11)

Like, I wish I could.

Dave (12:13)

Like, I was eating it the more I heard. I didn't realize when I heard there was like, the houses is like, oh, eating each other. I thought they were coming after me and I was so happy. I was like flipping the bird. I thought that it was all centering around me.

Dan (12:32)

They.

Dave (12:33)

I know.

Rico Bosco (12:33)

I didn't know that.

Dan (12:34)

I've never walked into a house that like you. I don't really. I don't. I don't really know how to describe it. When you walk into a, like a party and everyone's like, why the is this guy here? That's what I did. And it, I'll be honest, it fucked me up for like a couple months. Like, I've been a little fucked up and like I've been powering through. Like, I'm not going to sit here and be like, woe is me. I've been doing my job. I haven't changed what I've been doing. But, like, I've been a little fucked up. And I actually. I mean, I did start doing therapy. That was also. Therapy was a little. Probably 25% because of this game. It's 75% because the move to Chicago is like, I'm now in charge of 70 people and I never come.

Dave (13:18)

Yeah, I know. I feel.

Dan (13:19)

I know. Oh, I know. I know. I have a very. I have a newfound. Like, holy shit, How's Dave done it? Because I deal with everyone's problems. So it's like 75% that. Because I. Every day I deal with everyone's problems, and I don't have anyone to tell my problems to.

Dave (13:34)

Yeah.

Rico Bosco (13:34)

And then talk too slow.

Dan (13:36)

Yeah. No, he didn't talk to. So. And then 25%, because I played this game in September and everyone hated my guts. Probably still hates my guts, which that's.

Jack (13:45)

I disagree with that. That's where it's like. It's. People just hate you in the game.

Dan (13:48)

Oh, Kirk hates.

Dave (13:49)

Well, Kirk is not a real man. Kirk's a. Chris is not a real person. So people are getting Remad. Watch. Like, it had simmered. Now they're watching. They're getting Remad. I'm trying to think the year before, if we had a house where all the people were going.

Dan (14:05)

Hotel.

Dave (14:06)

No, I'm saying.

Rico Bosco (14:07)

I know.

Dan (14:07)

Oh, yeah.

Dave (14:08)

It changes.

Dan (14:09)

Yeah.

Dave (14:10)

Everyone sitting there and you again, you got to. You got to remember how stupid these people in the house are. You really can't put a price tag on how dumb like Taylor Lawan is. For example. Like, Taylor Juan. He's saying, I played a bad game on the couch. He's like, he's the worst to ever play the game. Your own team. The comments. These fools. I don't give away when they're saying Dan and I wouldn't allow.

Dan (14:36)

Yeah, well, how does that work? Like, we just had an alliance. We had an alliance.

Dave (14:40)

I didn't want Smitty to win. I put him in the game. And by the way, we didn't vote Taylor out.

Dan (14:45)

We weren't even on that team. Our alliance could have been. We don't like how Will smells. Yeah. Like, it doesn't matter in the game. You're just trying. They just never broke.

Dave (14:58)

They're Neanderthals. They. They. They're like, I thought Survivor was just gonna be a bench press contest. They're the. They're. And I love those guys. Like, I like them, but they're just the dumbest group of humans that ever got. And then you had a terrorist at the top running it.

Rico Bosco (15:14)

And Kirk, I think the hardest thing conveying to you, Dan, when you said the original plan part, was that Taylor was the one saying that in the whole room, we never could talk to you. And we all knew. We were like, yeah, yeah, Dan, Dan, Dan.

Dave (15:25)

Yeah. No, but, Bosco, you made no sense. You made no sense. Me, Bosco, when I'm. When you're like, we need Dan on board, I'm like, what are you talking about?

Dan (15:33)

He.

Dave (15:33)

You made no sense when you told him, yeah, I. I would just throw my vote away. I. Because I couldn't go against you. That made it sound real, you idiot.

Dan (15:41)

All right, you got to understand, we're going. But I ride the pink wedding. We're going to the pink wedding.

Jack (15:47)

Pink wedding was Rico's finest moment.

Dan (15:49)

I've probably slept like, I don't know, four hours a night every night. And I'm like, as paranoid and crazy. Like, I. I'm paranoid that Dave's going to get me. I'm paranoid that Ria's gonna get, like, every single person you're looking at. You're like, they're gonna fucking get me. And then when they say, well, they're talking about your name in the other room. Yeah. I should have had my wits and been like, well, yeah, of course Taylor's saying that. And. And it doesn't matter. I lost my mind.

Dave (16:16)

Kelly texted. Kelly texted Rita.

Dan (16:20)

Yeah.

Dave (16:20)

Saying it was you.

Dan (16:21)

Right.

Dave (16:22)

Rico acts like a weirdo. When I'm like, well, you need Dan on board. Confirms it. Then Rico's like, no, I would have thrown the vote away. I wouldn't vote for you.

Dan (16:32)

Rico.

Rico Bosco (16:33)

Rico.

Dave (16:33)

Rico is telling you the plan.

Dan (16:36)

Yeah, so.

Dave (16:37)

And then Kirk, when Kirk's like, why didn't. Why didn't you tell me? It's like, because we're being led to believe you're the ringleader. Why would you ever go up to Ria's?

Dan (16:45)

Ria's saying to me that they're saying your name, like, set off a chain of events that then put it in a spot where it's just self preservation. And that's really what it ended up becoming is like, I got to try to find a way to survive.

Dave (16:57)

And I don't know why you got upset. Because they were gunning, like, I know they.

Dan (17:01)

Yeah, they were coming gunning for me. That was.

Dave (17:03)

Whitney backstabbed me. If I intro Whitney to the whole thing was your greatest career moment would be killing me. And now you're Mad I killed you. You're just a dumb, tall glass of milk.

Dan (17:15)

If they. If I didn't win the idol in the first challenge, I think I would have probably been voted out in the first. In the pink wedding.

Dave (17:23)

No.

Rico Bosco (17:25)

I don't know.

Dave (17:26)

But always Taylor.

Dan (17:29)

Yeah. All right. So that. So I. Listen. This is where I was when I was like out of my mind and I couldn't. I. I didn't know what was going on and I panicked. And so when he said original plan, that's how it all unfolded.

Dave (17:40)

But yeah, where they screwed up and they screwed up greatly. It is getting rid of Taylor too fast. Yeah, way too fast. They broke that. Screwed the whole thing up. They had no need to do that even at the end. Again, I. I don't want to give away too many.

Dan (17:55)

Yeah, yeah, yeah. The. But yeah. So that's kind of my whole thing is I'm just. I'm mad at myself. I. I really tried to give a really good effort and then I quit. And I shouldn't have quit. That's a. It was stupid of me, but I was just. I was just so emotionally spent from everything and like, again, it was like in a two and a half day period. And I was like, these people are going to be pissed at me for the store.

Rico Bosco (18:17)

They're pissed that you're too loud.

Dan (18:18)

Oh, the people next door.

Rico Bosco (18:20)

The people next door. Like, I'm sure whatever he's saying is super interesting, but he needs.

Dave (18:24)

Yeah, you gotta tell him I'm on a podcast.

Dan (18:27)

The. So, yeah.

Rico Bosco (18:28)

Number one. Number one.

Dan (18:29)

That's kind of where I'm at it. The. The game. I. The game. Like, we shouldn't play that game with co workers. It's so up because I just like, I was so, so messed up mentally from that game overall, where, like, I was having, like, I was having. I don't know if you guys. I was having dreams of being in the game for like a month and I was just like, well, the emotional.

Jack (18:51)

The emotional difference between Rico, Big Cat and Dave.

Dan (18:55)

Yeah. I think is, yeah, Dave had the time of his life.

Dave (19:00)

This is my favorite day I've had on the Internet.

Dan (19:02)

Right.

Rico Bosco (19:02)

Yeah, it's the perfect. The thing you said when you were like, I was mentally checked out and then you put on your suit and they're gonna do this chaos game where only a fucking psychopath would succeed. You're the psychopath who succeeded you. That was your. You knew. You were strapping up and going to war and lining up and you're gonna blow everybody off. The Ball. And you were gonna pass block your ass off. And that's what you did.

Dave (19:21)

When I. When I told tail, I told Taylor the vote beforehand. I literally probably go, you're about to get. And by the way, another of those morons. They could have flipped after that. They still didn't flip.

Dan (19:31)

Yeah.

Dave (19:31)

But I am having the time of my life right now. I really have. I hate seeing Dan.

Dan (19:37)

Yeah.

Dave (19:37)

Like, because I know how personal he's taking it and I know the psychopath. So I do feel bad about that. Rico, I thought you were masterful.

Dan (19:49)

You started it all.

Dave (19:50)

I thought you were masterful.

Dan (19:53)

Yeah.

Dave (19:54)

Like I ride you.

Rico Bosco (19:56)

Meaning that or you just being a fucking troll right now?

Dave (19:59)

No, I.

Rico Bosco (19:59)

You're being a fucking troll. You are. I finally took me 11 years. You're being a fucking troll.

Dave (20:04)

Just troll with my rider.

Rico Bosco (20:05)

Okay.

Dave (20:06)

I am fully. What happened with Quigs? Quigs sent me a video of. Of it was like from Game of Thorns where he's reek. I hate that analogy. And I'm Grayson Joy. Whatever. It was a well done Quigs video. A minute and a half. I go, quigs, I'm disappointed. You know, I can't do this.

Dan (20:24)

Reported.

Dave (20:25)

I sent the video to Rico. I go, watch out, Rico. I reported him. So I didn't post that video, did I? I said, quigs, Quigs, you know, I can't do this. I ride for my guy and I go, by the way, Quigs, this is reported.

Jack (20:39)

Were you thinking about giving that to Kirk at all, Rico, instead of Dave, or maybe keeping it?

Rico Bosco (20:43)

Yeah, yeah, I was. I was in a horrific spot where you trying not to fuck over both guys. And eventually you had to make a.

Dave (20:48)

Decision and that I could make such a baby. Kirk, Kirk. Kirk's like, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me. And you gave it to me. And then he. He gets upset. He wanted. But by the way, better question, if you got. You asked, can I give the immunity to somebody, were you going to give that to Kirk?

Rico Bosco (21:04)

I don't even know. I was so fucked. People keep being like, why'd you give it to Dave? I was so at that point, I lost track of the money and I was like, I'd rather him not be mad at me. And that's a horrible way to play. But Dan just said it. You let the game get the best of you and you have a slip up. Everyone has had a slip up. Will didn't play the key. Kirk didn't play the key. He could have played the key.

Dan (21:21)

I Played the key. I shouldn't have played the key.

Dave (21:23)

Dave.

Rico Bosco (21:23)

Dan played the key. Rhea pulls out an idol. That's her slip up. No one's impervious except the fucking whack job pizza boy.

Dan (21:29)

Yeah.

Rico Bosco (21:29)

No, it's just rising.

Dan (21:31)

It's a good point.

Rico Bosco (21:32)

Sick of it.

Dan (21:33)

Everyone made a mistake at some point.

Rico Bosco (21:35)

Yes.

Dan (21:35)

Pink wedding.

Rico Bosco (21:36)

That's just why you good.

Dan (21:37)

I know you didn't. You did not. But everyone else made a mistake where they look back and they're like, if I had just not done that, I would have been okay. And like, it just. It was an incredible, like, idea by the producers and everyone because how long.

Rico Bosco (21:54)

Was that whole, like five hours. No food, no drinks.

Dan (21:57)

You're standing.

Rico Bosco (21:58)

Phones hot, no windows. It was like the reverse of a casino.

Dan (22:01)

Yeah.

Rico Bosco (22:01)

How a casino pumps in fun. They were pumping in hatred. Night terrors.

Dan (22:05)

Yeah.

Rico Bosco (22:06)

And the Internet and fans. It was bad.

Dan (22:08)

And you just go out on that turf and everyone would just be talking and you'd be like, who's they talking about? Who they talking about? You're just losing your mind. You're like, I think I'm okay, but I don't know. This person, this person, this person. It was just perfect television.

Dave (22:22)

What was your reaction when after I'm like, you're dead to me. Get away. And then they go to my confessions like, I'm just using three presidencies to break RICO down.

Rico Bosco (22:30)

Yeah, I was. Yeah. I mean, that was insane. You. You used. Yeah, you use your mental thing over me. Like, you're a better poker player than me.

Dave (22:37)

So that's also you. Also what? You text me earlier in the season. You're like, that hurt, cuz you were.

Rico Bosco (22:43)

Like, you put me down the list of your alliances yous're like, I'm with Dan, I'm with Rhea. I'm with this person. And I'm just holding RICO to fucking burn his little dick. That's what you did. I said, that hurts because you were the one. This would be again. I would look like such a fucking simp if I was one who originated this alliance. You text me before the game, you're like, pick them three. We're gonna go. I'm like, okay.

Jack (23:06)

You think you didn't look like a simp?

Dan (23:07)

No, D. I definitely.

Rico Bosco (23:09)

I don't know. Hank, who the fuck. If you're gonna be fucking with them, go with Matt.

Dave (23:15)

I. I honestly thought it was kind of gonna be like one of our pick and rolls. I'm like, so the big three.

Dan (23:19)

And.

Dave (23:20)

And you took it dead literally. But I never really took it serious.

Dan (23:23)

Yeah.

Rico Bosco (23:24)

All right. And then in the game, I gave you everything. Like I gave you Dave.

Dave (23:28)

Well, yeah, Dave, I was a day.

Rico Bosco (23:29)

Late on most of the information, but I gave you everything I had.

Dave (23:32)

Well, you also spied on me for the first three days.

Dan (23:35)

Everywhere I went, Dave played the game perfectly. Like I think about when I was watching it back. Like even when our tribe, Dave was Francis, Roan, Moobs, Rhea, me, you. And we voted. Actually, it was when Whitney. When we voted Whitney out because Whitney and I were, you know, we were working together. We voted Whitney out and then we voted Francis out. And I was like, so now it's Moves. And you're like, we're not voting for Moves. We got her. Let's go. For Roan. It was that moment where I was like, oh fuck, I am not in control anymore. Like I thought I was.

Dave (24:07)

I knew Moves is locked.

Dan (24:08)

I know.

Dave (24:10)

Forever.

Dan (24:10)

I thought I was in control and I was like. And then I played it back in my head and I was like, well, fuck, that was stupid voting off Francis and Whitney because those guys I could have used instead of the other way where we got. We got guys out that I could work with. And then I look around and it's you, Moves, Ria and Ron. And I was like, ro, like number I'm now. I'm now along for the ride for whatever Dave is going to do because I just. I played the numbers wrong. Like that's the game. You play the numbers wrong.

Rico Bosco (24:41)

Dave, looking back, of course I was gonna take that alliance seriously. Cuz last year we were two ships in the night and if you approached me, you maybe could have flipped me against Jerry. That would have saved you. So yeah, I thought you were serious.

Dave (24:51)

Well, cuz you.

Rico Bosco (24:52)

You said it's a regret. Why? And even Kevin last year, why did you never approach Rico to be your fourth?

Dave (24:59)

I thought you being backstabbed would be such good TV that I wanted to totally blindside you. See what happened now? The game changes as you go. Like, I didn't. I had nothing with Ria. When we entered the game, we ended up on the same team. She approached me and it continued to build trust throughout the game. You were with me in the beginning, so we're playing. But yeah, I did not take that our alliance remotely serious. Like that was a laugh. That was a laugh alliance for me.

Rico Bosco (25:32)

That hurts.

Jack (25:34)

There's two.

Dave (25:34)

But because I ride now.

Rico Bosco (25:36)

Yeah, you ride because you got your dick sucked while I'm out on the street. Yeah, exactly.

Dan (25:40)

So he rides you you're again.

Rico Bosco (25:42)

Lexington Avenue.

Dan (25:43)

He rides. Oh, wait. Before. Hank, you have a question. Game time real quick. The pick them bracket challenge is presented by game time, the official ticketing partner, barstool sports. We've got three college football games left. There's no better place to get your tickets for those games, NFL playoffs and other live events than game time. Dave's bracket ended up the closest out of any of ours, so good job, Dave. Go into the app redeem code, pick them playoff and get out to your team's playoff games with the help of game time picks feature for amazing deals. Get your tickets now with game time.

Dave (26:12)

Can we do one more, though? Can we just do one? There we go. Yeah.

Rico Bosco (26:23)

Such a. We're back.

Dave (26:24)

The boys are back.

Dan (26:25)

Rico, how about me finding that extra key too?

Rico Bosco (26:30)

Yes. Yeah, I don't think anyone knows about that.

Dan (26:33)

Well, no, that's in that I'm getting eliminated. Like we're taping this at 4:00'. Clock. I'm getting eliminated three hours. So I assume they put it in. It would be weird if they didn't. But I was.

Rico Bosco (26:42)

Yeah.

Dan (26:43)

When I was like, I'm gonna just try to give Rico as much ammo to try to win this because.

Rico Bosco (26:47)

Yeah. Does that look like I'm taking a free ride or like never turning down the keys?

Jack (26:53)

Accepting people's free is not.

Dan (26:55)

I made the mistake of quitting.

Dave (26:57)

I. I took you a free idol.

Rico Bosco (26:58)

Yeah, exactly.

Dan (26:59)

I should never have quit. I should have fought through. I was a baby about it once I quit. I was trying to help you. Why wouldn't you accept that?

Dave (27:07)

I was so happy when you quit.

Dan (27:09)

I. I'm so mad. I'm so mad at myself looking back.

Dave (27:12)

Because I. I literally didn't know. I'm like, all right, now we're. Now it's going to start getting hard when going to have to start eating ourselves. And then you. Then you're like, yeah, I'm out. I'm like, whoa. Okay, let's find by me.

Dan (27:24)

I hate it.

Jack (27:24)

There was two other. Two other laugh out loud funny moments which the. The one that I don't think got any traction but I thought was insane was Clemmer, who's what, 45 years old?

Dan (27:33)

Pizza.

Jack (27:33)

After Taylor got eliminated, he gets up off the couch and goes, oh, he's going to come back with some good tea.

Rico Bosco (27:39)

I was like, did he just say that?

Jack (27:42)

And then biz. Going independent was like, I've never laughed.

Dan (27:45)

I've never laughed harder than going independent. The pink wedding.

Rico Bosco (27:48)

What does that mean?

Dan (27:49)

The chaos.

Rico Bosco (27:49)

I didn't know, Dan. You said, let's just vote Rico as well. I was.

Dan (27:52)

Yeah, I was, dude.

Rico Bosco (27:53)

I deserved it. But I was surprised that you had your back.

Dave (27:56)

I had you back, Rico.

Dan (27:58)

I was so lost in everything. I was so lost.

Dave (28:02)

You're not going after my boy. Not Rico. He's with us now. I put the cloak of protection over.

Dan (28:07)

He did. The, The. The. The. The.

Rico Bosco (28:09)

The social guys in the chop circle were dying. The way you say. You already heard there were leaks.

Dan (28:16)

The image of watching it of Biz just standing on the turf, blinking. He's just like this. He's just playing, and he's just, like, so mad at everyone because he just didn't know what's going on. God damn.

Jack (28:27)

He said some of the darkest people in the.

Dan (28:29)

On the. On the Internet. It's a up game. It is. It's a up. You can't.

Jack (28:34)

But Biz and like, Arian Foster, I don't know what they thought there. Biz, Arian Foster.

Rico Bosco (28:39)

There was a few people. I don't.

Jack (28:40)

I don't know what they were walking. What they thought they were walking into.

Dave (28:44)

Aaron Foster, the most confusing because I thought he's playing us because he's been on reality TV shows in the beginning.

Dan (28:51)

Yeah.

Dave (28:51)

So I'm like, oh, he's going to come cutthroat here.

Dan (28:54)

You can't. You. And this was my ultimate biggest mistake. You can't play that game with a real strategy and not fuck people over and have them be pissed at you. And in the moment, I should have realized that, like, that's the game. You got to do it. You got to be cutthroat about it. I didn't. That. That was my biggest fault. Like, you got to just own that. You're just like, hey, Whitney, I voted you out. Fuck off. Like, that's. I. I wish I had done that in the moment. I. I'm a. I'm a pussy about it, and I am mad at myself for quitting. And that. That was. That was it. Like, I should have been like, Kirk. Okay, go ahead, say Newton. You. You. You voted. Like, I was trying to save myself. You were trying to save yourself. You would have voted for me. I would have voted for you. That's the game. And I should have done that in the moment.

Dave (29:37)

So great.

Dan (29:38)

All right, Anything else?

Rico Bosco (29:40)

What'd you have, Dan? You were saying in the beginning, you were like, I had something on the necklace. I probably just opened a can of worms. But what did you have on the.

Dan (29:46)

What do you mean?

Rico Bosco (29:47)

I said, oh, when I gave the necklace. And you were like, oh, let me get to that. You're an idiot. Did you have anything on that?

Dan (29:53)

Oh, no, just that you gave it to Dave.

Rico Bosco (29:55)

Yeah.

Dan (29:56)

That was crazy. That was a crazy move.

Rico Bosco (29:58)

Yes. I fucked up, dude. I was up.

Dan (30:00)

Yeah. It was shocking.

Dave (30:02)

That's my guy. That. That. Listen, the dog came back home. He's been wandering the streets lost, but he got that sniff. He got that smell in the air. He perked up. He's like, I found my way home. And now we're reunited.

Jack (30:17)

As a fan watching who wasn't involved and just watching it back with the rest of the world. Like, if you run the simulation of the pink wedding 100 times.

Dan (30:27)

Yes.

Jack (30:27)

Dave and Dan are getting knocked out, like, probably 95% of them. The only reason they didn't was because of Rico. Yeah, that, like, that's what I just could. Could not stop laughing at was like, I don't know how it played out this way where Dave is not getting taken out and big cats not getting taken out. I guess the immunity helped too, but they're like, in no world should you guys have made it past that. And basically the only reason you did was because of Rico. And the funniest part was it was unintentional.

Dan (30:52)

Yeah. And he's just in the middle of the whole chaos. Like, he started talk to me.

Rico Bosco (30:56)

It was fucking. It was brutal.

Dan (30:58)

Yeah, it's.

Dave (30:59)

Well, I mean, they played. They also played a major factor that by going Taylor that quickly.

Dan (31:05)

Yeah.

Dave (31:05)

If they didn't. Once you turn on your own team, you took out Will because best friends, everything's biz doesn't know what's going on every. That if they didn't do that right away, they probably could have maintained it. But once they ate their own, it was game.

Rico Bosco (31:21)

And the biggest. Did you have a plan coming into that, Dave? Like, where you're like, all right, it's 11. We're significantly outnumbered.

Dave (31:28)

Here's what kept happening. Rio was saying, kelly is with us. Dan was sort of saying Megan, back and forth. So. And then you were. So there were leaks, but every time we were like, all right, who we going? We. Your team was saying, we're all going Taylor, which made me think that's not even a vote. So that's why I kept being his Kirk. Like, voting out somebody we all agree with. What does that do? They still have the numbers. We need somebody they don't want. And every time I said Kirk, people were like, no, no. Made me think he was part of the alliance. So we just decided we'll let you guys vote out your own person. And we all went on. Kirk made him play the idol.

Dan (32:08)

Right. Flush out the idol, which the idol was. He showed it to Ria, and then Ria told us right away, right?

Dave (32:13)

Correct.

Dan (32:13)

And, yeah. I mean, the.

Rico Bosco (32:15)

You pulling me aside set me up for disaster, too.

Dave (32:18)

Dave.

Dan (32:18)

We're like, listen, I'll.

Rico Bosco (32:21)

Why are you talking to him? Like, wait a minute.

Dave (32:24)

I said, you're going Taylor, right? You go. Well, is Dan on board?

Rico Bosco (32:27)

Yeah. Because in looking back and I've played this simulation a million times because people like, why'd you do this? Like, what in. I knew we had me, Megan, for at least what I thought. Me, Megan, Kirk, and kelly. So that's four. There's 11 people at the table. So I even say to you in the thing, it's like half a sentence, but I'm like, you need two more. I'm like, you need two to get to six. I wanted to get to six to know it was Taylor and then he was going home.

Dave (32:52)

You're doing too much thinking. You're a peon. You're like the first guy on the chessboard that you just move. You don't know how to. You don't know how to move diagonal or jump or queen. You just can move straight ahead and that's it. So you were getting too deep a thinking. I had to know if you guys were going Taylor, that I just needed confirmation because I need to make sure those votes were going so our team could go someplace else. So I. Once you start thinking too much, your entire world implodes around. You need a leader, a general like me to take you to that next Rico.

Dan (33:25)

What you didn't realize, too, is like. Like, the three of us are basically like the. You know, the guy learning to walk upright, where Rico's on all fours, I'm hunched over. Dave's walking upright. I. I thought I was in control in the game, and then I realized I wasn't. And then I was like, I'm just going with whatever, you know, like, I'm going along for the ride. Like, that was. Dave was. I've never seen someone more in control than what Dave did at the pink wedding. It was. It was. I literally walked up there was like.

Rico Bosco (33:53)

Who are we voting for?

Dan (33:54)

Because I was like, I can't think for myself. Like, I gotta. You gotta tell me who to vote for.

Dave (33:59)

That clip that's gone super viral. I have. When I told Will to walk away, and he just did, and I'm like, we're voting. Well, It's.

Dan (34:07)

And. And the. Yeah. I mean, the whole thing was. It was crazy. It was just a perfect set up.

Dave (34:13)

A hand up. I will say we had one big advantage. Not intentional. Everything's the way we sat. They should have been reversing the votes.

Dan (34:20)

Yes.

Dave (34:20)

Like, we, like me and Rhea, got to sit and watch chaos happen. I don't know if it would have changed it, but it was definitely advantage.

Rico Bosco (34:28)

We got to go assign seats or.

Dave (34:30)

Did you know we just randomly took them?

Dan (34:32)

No. Like, yeah, I know. Me being next to Kirk was what? Like, if I was on the other side, I don't even know.

Jack (34:37)

You said I voted for Kirk and then Kirk, like, blacked out.

Dan (34:40)

Yeah, basically. Which I get it. It's a game. Like, you. You should be mad at me for that. Like, that's. I'd be mad as well.

Rico Bosco (34:46)

He's mad at me too. Yeah, he's very mad at me.

Dan (34:47)

Yeah. It is what it is.

Jack (34:48)

I think our tribute.

Dave (34:49)

I think he said he's gonna spit in your face when he saw you.

Rico Bosco (34:52)

Yeah. I mean, you're gonna allow that? Like, where are we stepping in?

Jack (34:54)

Will said he was gonna put hands on you, Dave.

Dave (34:57)

I. Who said that?

Jack (34:58)

Will said this.

Rico Bosco (34:59)

This.

Jack (34:59)

He responded.

Dave (35:01)

He doesn't know. He doesn't know how to accept an apology.

Dan (35:04)

Yeah. That was the other thing that helped us, Dave, is that they kept on winning challenges. So we went in the pink.

Dave (35:11)

Wedding time.

Rico Bosco (35:12)

People like, you're an idiot. How could you want to lose if we lost? What? From what I thought, Taylor was gone right away.

Dan (35:18)

Gone totally.

Rico Bosco (35:19)

And we still had the numbers. And it goes differently. So people keeping like, oh, you have no heart. And fucking Will's chirping and fucking JP Hovey, who can't do a social post. Correct. Is fucking chirping me left and right. Like, it turns out the game is strategy. You need to lose so they can do that. Let me ask you a question. Did the Chiefs lose this week on purpose against the Bengals? Like, potentially, right, to keep the Bengals out. So suck my dick, jp. Ovi.

Dan (35:43)

But yeah, that helped us a ton. We had four people and we all knew what we were doing and they had seven. They were all over the place.

Dave (35:52)

They just made a move on Taylor. I don't really understand the move and why it was so quick.

Dan (35:59)

I don't. I don't know.

Rico Bosco (36:00)

Because he was. He was kind of running on our side as well, like. Or he was. The girls didn't like the way he was talking to him and like that. Like, he thought he was in charge.

Dave (36:08)

Yeah, he's in the ender.

Rico Bosco (36:09)

But he also could have won, you know, like, he could have won down the road, like, in the challenges, I think.

Dave (36:14)

Yeah, he could have. But there's a million to go.

Dan (36:17)

Yeah. Great tv. Great tv.

Rico Bosco (36:23)

Dave ran among those guys right up. I love the Boston guys, right up until I gave it. Did you ever think I was going to give it to you?

Dave (36:29)

Oh, I knew. I knew. You're broken. All right.

Rico Bosco (36:31)

Thanks.

Dan (36:31)

Yeah, I was.

Rico Bosco (36:32)

I was.

Jack (36:32)

So I was here, and I knew generally, like, what happened and who was getting voted off, so I thought I might not be, like, that interested because I kind of know, like, what happened. I'm locked in.

Dan (36:41)

I. I'm.

Jack (36:42)

I don't even, really, like, know what happens. I feel like. Yeah, like, each episode is. Is. It gets better and better.

Dan (36:47)

It is. It's. It's. It's great tv. And, yeah, it was. It fucked me up bad.

Dave (36:52)

Like, I wish I could fill movie theaters and watch, like, you know, you. Like, you go to screen movies, see the reactions when Rico gave me the. The idol. And by the way, Francis, he's like, what an idiot. Like, Francis, you did the same thing. You. More.

Rico Bosco (37:06)

Even worse. Yeah, well, it's just as bad.

Dan (37:11)

All right, that's. That. I think that's good.

Rico Bosco (37:15)

Pulling an idol, which was crazy, too.

Dan (37:17)

Yeah.

Rico Bosco (37:17)

For the only person to pull the bottle.

Dave (37:19)

I was the happiest guy in the room.

Dan (37:20)

The pink Whitney. Yeah. Oh, man. I was so devastated when I opened that box and there was nothing in there. I was just like, God fucking damn it. I can't. Because I. I was like, this is gonna be great. I'm gonna get a fucking pink bottle. I should have known with my gambling luck. 46 crazy.

Dave (37:34)

The. The hit rate on that is like 2%. Nobody was here.

Dan (37:38)

I thought for the. This is how paranoid I got. Like, on Wednesday of that week, I was just like, yeah, there's nothing in those boxes. They're just fucking with us. I had a key once. I just gave it away because I was like, all right. I saw one. I didn't even pick it up because I was like, I'm not taking that. I know what they're gonna do. They're gonna fucking take my vote away. I was convinced that they had rigged it against everyone because that's just how fucked up I was in my head. Incredible game. Well, well done by everyone. Behind the scenes. Enrico, just listen. I'm getting. I'm Danny Boy Kane. Right now. I'm having a hell of a time online. They're giving Me a hell of a time.

Rico Bosco (38:13)

Stand in the pocket Catching heat.

Dan (38:16)

Just stand in the pocket. Own it. I, I, I, I played the game hard. I, I backstabbed people. I own it. And I shouldn't have quit because I'm a.

Dave (38:25)

One of, one of the most important lessons. One of the original riders is back.

Dan (38:32)

Yeah, he is. He is. He's back. All right.

Dave (38:36)

Before I didn't know we'd ever get there, Bosco. But like, I am riding.

Dan (38:40)

Look at his smile. Look at his smile.

Dave (38:42)

I love it.

Rico Bosco (38:43)

It's unbelievable. The thing I laughed at the most too was you didn't even wait till barstool. The s in barstool sports hit the side panel of the slide in before you put that another one bites the dust video on there. Like it was instant. You sick. It was like instant publish. This is such a sycophant.

Dan (39:00)

Like that's, I don't think that's the right word.

Rico Bosco (39:03)

Whatever it is. Psychopath, whatever. You're nut.

Dave (39:06)

I'm a psychopath. I mean I'm a, I'm a rider. But I do remember your transgressions.

Dan (39:13)

All right, before, let's talk football. By the way, Amazon Prime Prime's exclusive wild card playoff game is coming Saturday. TJ Wat and the Steelers take on Lamar Jackson and the Ravens in a playoff showdown between AFC north rivals. It's only on Prime Video. Not a Prime member sign up for a 30 day free trial to stream the game. The Steelers and the Ravens and Primes exclusive wildcard playoff game powered by Verizon. Saturday at 7:30 Eastern. Only on Prime Video. All right, boys there. Then there were two or four. Sorry, two games. Four. Four teams left. Let's do. We're gonna. By the way, we're gonna have quite the scene in the cave. I think tonight it's gonna be frank in chief for Notre Dame and large versus Max Connor Griffin and Jeff D. Lowe. So.

Dave (40:00)

Wow.

Dan (40:01)

Yeah, quite a pack stream. But let's get to that game. We got Penn State, Notre Dame. Rico, I'll start with you. I think the. Let me pull up the line for right now.

Rico Bosco (40:12)

One and a half is what I wrote down before I walked in here.

Dan (40:15)

Okay. One and a half and the over. Under is what? 44 and a half. Still pulling up 44 and a half. One and a half minus one and a half. Notre Dame. 44 and a half is the total.

Rico Bosco (40:25)

Yeah, I like Notre Dame here as well. I, I think. Listen, they keep talking about Franklin and.

Dave (40:30)

Franklin. What do you mean as well?

Rico Bosco (40:32)

I just. Whatever. I got ahead of myself. Yeah, I like, I like Notre Dame. I think Franklin they keep talking about, he's finally made a final four. Franklin always won. He hasn't won a big game yet. He was a big favorite against Boise and smu. They were supposed to win those games and if this was the old format, we would just be starting of him making the playoff. So he hasn't done it yet. I'm going to go with Freeman. I'm going to go with that defense. Lean on Notre Dame. I think Notre Dame wins. They're not going to make mistakes. I don't think Riley Leonard is going to turn it over. I'm going with Notre Dame. Plus I'm obviously rooting for Notre Dame against State. Penn, obviously. So I'm going with Notre Dame.

Dan (41:06)

Okay, Dave.

Dave (41:08)

I'm going to take Penn State. I think they've played better teams during the course of the season. Georgia not impressed by them. I think they stink. So I'm going to take Penn State. But nothing, I mean it's almost a pick him game, so it certainly won't surprise him. Notre Dame 1, but I'm gonna go with the nitty Lions.

Dan (41:29)

I've gone back and forth so much, so much about this. I think I'm gonna go Notre Dame. I hate it though. I, I drew Aller is a better quarterback than Riley Leonard.

Rico Bosco (41:40)

Yep.

Dave (41:40)

I think I, I think they both stink as quarterbacks.

Dan (41:43)

Really? I think pretty good.

Dave (41:46)

I don't like either of them, but.

Dan (41:47)

Yeah, Notre Dame's gonna be my pick. I don't really. I kind of agree with Rico. Like James Franklin hasn't had that big game where they get a little pressure. Also Abdul Carter, like, I know he's set to play, but how effective is he going to be? Like he sat out the what, the half of the Boise game. Like, he's definitely injured. So that's a huge, huge piece. Especially when you talk about the focus on him versus everyone else. I'll go with Notre Dame and I kind of like the under, but I'm not going to bet it. All right, Dave. Ohio State. Texas, Ohio State minus six. Over. Under is 53 and a half. Damn, Ohio State looks good.

Dave (42:26)

Yeah, yeah, they. I'm not a bot. A buyer of them yet. Yeah, obviously Oregon games big. I don't like what they beat Indiana. Is that the playoff? Which. Who'd they be? Yeah, so Indiana. I'm not.

Rico Bosco (42:42)

No, they beat Tennessee. Tennessee. Tennessee.

Dave (42:45)

Tennessee. All right, so I didn't think Tennessee was very good. They've obviously come out of the gate, but it's almost too good. Like too easy. Like there wasn't resistance. Oregon wasn't ready to come out and play. They've definitely good now of course maybe I'm biased because every time I really watch Ohio State they get pummeled by Michigan. I don't like Texas either but I think Texas may be able to grind them out here. I really got that Arizona State game. That Bet I had 100 grand moneyline. Arizona State Bills to win 3.6 million. Should have had it. Should have had it.

Rico Bosco (43:17)

It's very much targeting.

Dave (43:19)

I was 100%. Now the grant they may not have scored. They don't have a good field goal kicker but still. Yes, I agree. I'm just not sold. Ohio State is nearly as good as they've seen when they play Penn State. They barely beat them. They lost Oregon the first time. Lost to Michigan. What all of a sudden they just turn it on. I don't believe it. I'm going to take Texas, but I don't like Texas either. I don't think any of that's. I think there's a defunct. I made that, that video. This is the first true nil. You don't have any super teams. Like it's a bad final four crop of teams. Now people are going to say oh, Ohio State's a super team. Shut up. There are two loss or four conference. They're a fourth place conference team. You can't be a super team. I'm going to take Texas.

Dan (44:03)

Okay, Rico, I'm torn here because I.

Rico Bosco (44:07)

Think Texas, Texas is. I don't know. I. Texas has been okay. I could see this.

Dave (44:12)

Yours has been off. That's a big problem.

Dan (44:14)

But he always is kind of off. He's like one plays the best quarterback in the world and then he'll just throw one that you're like what was that dude? Like that, that, that fourth and 14 was incredible. The drive before, two drives before he threw a terrible pick. That's just what he does.

Dave (44:31)

Yeah, he throws a like lazy deep ball.

Dan (44:34)

Yeah.

Rico Bosco (44:34)

The line almost like it's Ohio State minus six. Something there tells me it's. It's got to be Ohio State. I'm going with Ohio State. I also like the over. I do think some points are going to be scored. So I'm Ohio State in the over.

Dan (44:45)

Okay. I'm going to take the over. 53 and a half is. What is that right now. Okay. By the way, that's all brought to you by DraftKings.

Dave (46:20)

I made a future bet in college basketball.

Dan (46:23)

Oh, tell us.

Dave (46:24)

Not. Not Florida. Oh, University of Michigan.

Dan (46:28)

There. I told you they're good.

Rico Bosco (46:30)

Texting. 40 to 1 texting with Dusty last night. They look very good.

Dave (46:34)

Oh, I don't even know if I should say the story.

Rico Bosco (46:38)

Well, here we go.

Dan (46:40)

You're right.

Rico Bosco (46:40)

Yeah. From dinner.

Dan (46:42)

Right.

Rico Bosco (46:42)

The other night. It's. I was told it wasn't that bad. You're gonna. This is what you're gonna do. You're gonna end it with bad. It's bad. Go ahead. All right, here we go.

Dave (46:48)

It's not bad.

Rico Bosco (46:50)

Go ahead.

Dave (46:52)

So I. Dinner with Caitlin Clark.

Dan (46:54)

Oh, yeah.

Dave (46:56)

Last night. And we're talking up and we're just talking about different stuff. And it's like, I think you may know something. Before I could finish, she goes, rico. I was like, you know Rico Bosco? She's like my boyfriend. And he texts my boyfriend all the time.

Dan (47:15)

And.

Dave (47:15)

And then I was like, she asked. She's like, what's Dave Enrico's relationship? And she said, he says it's complicated, was the answer.

Dan (47:26)

Well, not anymore. Yeah.

Rico Bosco (47:28)

Yeah. How's that a fucking like crazy? Of course it's complicated.

Dave (47:32)

No, it's not. Now it's great.

Rico Bosco (47:33)

Okay. I would say we're in a very complicated.

Dave (47:36)

I just thought it was funny that Caitlin Clark, we love each other, but.

Rico Bosco (47:39)

Every couple of Friday nights I come home with a black eye and a fucking bruise on my thigh and you're like, it's gonna be different, babe. It's gonna be different. All right? It's. It's a complicated relationship.

Dan (47:51)

The fact that Caitlin Clark is talking about Rico Bosco.

Rico Bosco (47:54)

What? I've messaged. I've messaged with her before as well. Like before, way before she blew up. I'm not with the Iowa.

Jack (48:02)

Did you just message her or is it. She responded.

Dan (48:05)

Rico, what year?

Rico Bosco (48:05)

Responded? What year? 1 2021. 2022.

Dave (48:09)

Somebody said you proved. I believe it's omerta. Like what you proved during surviving barstool was that despite everything, when push came to shove and a bullet was coming at me, you would throw your body in front of it. That's big, right?

Jack (48:26)

That means a lot.

Rico Bosco (48:29)

Yeah. Me and her boyfriend are good friends.

Dan (48:32)

Oh, I love that for you, Rico, who's your future on in college basketball?

Rico Bosco (48:35)

Bama. I got him last April 16 1.

Dan (48:38)

Oh, wow. That's huge.

Dave (48:40)

Tell me, tell. Tell me how this does.

Rico Bosco (48:42)

I.

Dave (48:42)

It's almost too easy. But I put 400 on the Chargers.

Dan (48:46)

You did?

Dave (48:47)

You joined me not to win the whole thing, just to win the game.

Dan (48:51)

Oh, this.

Dave (48:52)

This week I. I have the Texans future. They stink.

Dan (48:55)

Yeah, I have the Chargers 40 to 1.

Dave (48:58)

Yeah. No, they're not going to win it all. Yeah, mine is two and a half this week.

Dan (49:01)

I like that bet. I like that bet. What are you doing in Arizona?

Dave (49:06)

I had a speaking thing at Axon.

Dan (49:08)

Oh, nice.

Dave (49:09)

Yeah.

Rico Bosco (49:10)

That's why reports.

Dave (49:11)

Yeah.

Dan (49:11)

Oh, okay. All right. Good job, boy. This is the last pick of the year.

Jack (49:18)

Congrats, Rico.

Dan (49:19)

What do you guys. Yeah, my game time brackets sucked. I had Oregon going all the way. Had Arizona State beating Texas. That was close. So I had. So I'm done. Because I had Oregon going all the way. Penn State, Notre Dame, I got correct. But yeah, I had a shitty bracket. What about you, Dave?

Dave (49:37)

I don't have in front. I think I'm nearly perfect. I think I have Ohio State beating Penn State in the final. I don't have it in front of me.

Rico Bosco (49:44)

I took a beating I had Ohio state was correct. Texas was correct. I had Arizona state beating Notre Dame was correct. But I only have Texas in the final four.

Dave (49:55)

That's the only thing I got right. I think it's perfect. Besides, I have ASU beating Texas. I think on this is on recall I don't have front of me.

Dan (50:02)

Yeah. All right.

Rico Bosco (50:03)

Dave. I don't love it as much as I loved it last night, but I like the pole tonight.

Dave (50:07)

Plus the three I ride with I.

Rico Bosco (50:09)

Ride with my guy's really bad se.

Dave (50:11)

I I say less Bosco.

Rico Bosco (50:13)

I also think Bama is going to be okay tonight against South Carolina. First half I like B.

Dave (50:17)

Well, that's a little bit like so.

Rico Bosco (50:18)

Bama first half like Bama first half as well. We've been rolling.

Dave (50:22)

So take so take them both.

Rico Bosco (50:23)

Yeah, I like both say less boss.

Dan (50:25)

All right. All right. See you guys. Good pick of mirror. Congrats again. Beat Rico.

Rico Bosco (50:30)

See you next week. People report up to you, Jack, like so. If someone handed you a report, you.

Dan (50:36)

Would just hand it into your supervisors. You would just hand it in.

Rico Bosco (50:39)

That's what you basically did. Here's the report. You just signed your name for the turn paper. Probably traded an eight ball. You paid for the turnpaper. You wrote your name at the top. It's not nice when people are coming after you for little things, right, Jack? It's not nice.

Dave (50:55)

That's true.

Dan (50:55)

Fair point. Fair point.
