[Will]

Welcome to Bus on the Boys.

[Shane Gillis]

All right, what do We.

[Will]

What do we even want to talk about, bro?

[Shane Gillis]

We talk the Irish. Dude, talk.

[Will]

We talk Irish. We're in South Bend right now. Like, it's South. This is South Bend. Like, it's exactly what I thought it would be.

[Shane Gillis]

Your attitude, dude. You've got such a good attitude, dude.

[Will]

You think this is bad?

[Shane Gillis]

You've got a great attitude. I was telling my friends. I was like, before. I was like, wait till you meet this guy. He's getting high energy. Football energy, dude. He's a football guy.

[Will]

Yeah.

[Shane Gillis]

You're not a non football person.

[Will]

You weren't hype about the.

[Shane Gillis]

I'm upset about the wind. I wanted to show my friend Notre Dame. I wanted to show him, like, to.

[Will]

Me, you're showing him Notre Dame.

[Shane Gillis]

This is Notre Dame. True. But I called you. You're like, I'm in the. I'm in the indoor facilities right now, dude. Where are you? At the indoor facility.

[Will]

I was literally showing all the boys where I ran my 4, 540.

[Shane Gillis]

I mean, running 4, 5, 40 is hilarious. That's so fast. That's so bad.

[Will]

That was a sophomore in high school, bro.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah. When you get the. It's so funny.

[Will]

Charlie Weiss was sitting in the golf cart with all his rings.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah.

[Will]

And you had a photo op after you ran your 40, you could walk.

[Shane Gillis]

Over and do a photo op with Charlie.

[Will]

With Charlie Weiss.

[Shane Gillis]

Damn.

[Will]

It was just like, too bad he.

[Shane Gillis]

Didn'T work out for no name.

[Will]

Is it?

[Shane Gillis]

I. I liked a lot of the Weiss era guys. No, Jimmy Carson. Jimmy Carson's my.

[Will]

Maybe the Weiss era guys because he's a good recruiter. Yeah, but you guys have so much talent. Like nobody. You guys never did with all that talent.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, they did never do, but I don't know. They could have won a couple BCS Bulls. Notre Dame gets matched up in BCS polls like you wouldn't believe, dude. Other than this last year, Oklahoma State. Actually, Oklahoma State was supposed to be in the playoffs until the last play of their season, and then they get matched up with Notre Dame. Do you look at who Notre Dame gets matched up with in BCS polls? You'd be shocked.

[Will]

You guys had your. Yeah, but you guys were in the playoff when. It's not like.

[Shane Gillis]

No, I know, but I'm talking back in the Rice era. During the bcs. Literally during the BCS era, Notre Dame's matchups would always be whoever literally got left out of the title because it'd always be an at large game.

[Will]

Yeah.

[Shane Gillis]

You know what I mean?

[Will]

But that's The. That's kind of like you guys get to do your own independent.

[Shane Gillis]

I know they get in the bowl.

[Will]

Games because if you're a good team, you end up handling the bowl game. I worked. I tried my ass off to be a Notre Dame Fighting Irish guy. Did you know that?

[Shane Gillis]

No.

[Will]

Yeah, I grew up. I grew up. I went to Catholic school until fourth grade. Our principal would go to a Notre Dame game every year and bring back souvenirs. So I grew up a Notre Dame fan. I went to their four day camp two years in a row and went to their senior invite camp to try and get an offer. And I was like a. I was like a rebound guy. So when guys didn't commit at the Army All American game our senior year, that's when I got offered and they offered me as a fullback. Not even a linebacker. Like, I tried so hard to be another.

[Shane Gillis]

Damn, they up so many. Dude. Luke Keakley wanted to be one.

[Will]

Really?

[Shane Gillis]

All of them. Dude, I think Sean. What's his name from Penn State? Sean Lee. No. Everybody wants to be a Notre Dame. Every white linebacker.

[Will]

Linebacker.

[Shane Gillis]

You know, I mean, that's.

[Will]

That, that was a wild take right there. It is Penn State. That's a dumb take by me.

[Shane Gillis]

What's that?

[Will]

Linebacker you. I said linebacker you.

[Shane Gillis]

But that's not a name. No, no.

[Will]

Yeah, I was saying that, but I'm saying that that's definitely not.

[Shane Gillis]

It is Penn State, but yeah, bro.

[Will]

I wanted to be a.

[Shane Gillis]

That's a white linebacker dream, dude. But you got to give the coaches credit. That's tough to weed through which white linebacker is going to be good.

[Will]

I think it's. I think I'm probably one of Charlie Weiss's biggest recruiting misses of all time.

[Shane Gillis]

You see a guy running for a white linebacker, running four or five, you gotta offer.

[Will]

Yeah. Sophomore year, high school, hard work.

[Shane Gillis]

That's so hard to run four or five as a white guy.

[Will]

Yeah. You couldn't really be on our tour.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah.

[Will]

What the.

[Shane Gillis]

Dude.

[Will]

Yeah. So I'm trying to get. We're like doing this tour for the vlogging, everything like that. And I asked if Shane and his squad can be on the go on tour with us.

[Shane Gillis]

And I was told no, they passed on me.

[Will]

Literally the response was, isn't he spicy? And all I said was, he's a comedian. He's a massive Notre Dame fan.

[Shane Gillis]

Wait, what? They said I was spicy.

[Will]

They said, isn't he spicy? I said, he's a massive Notre Dame fan. He's a comedian. They say, yeah. Based on you Know some of his shows. And Catholics a no go.

[Shane Gillis]

I'm pro Catholic.

[Will]

You went to West Plains?

[Shane Gillis]

West Point. Yeah.

[Will]

West point.

[Shane Gillis]

That's a 4, 5, 40, white running back line. That's what it takes to run a four or five as a white guy. You gotta say things like, you went to the West Plains.

[Will]

What was your. What was your 40.

[Shane Gillis]

Dude, laser. Laser. I'm not kidding. It was like a five. I swear to God, I was. I was about to. I was probably 290 at this camp. It was a Scout.com in Morgantown, dude.

[Will]

Scout.com.

[Shane Gillis]

No joke. I. I might have run of. I think it was a 5, 8, 5 9. And I was like under 6. Nice. And I had a coat. Well, you know how it is with the hand time from your coach.

[Will]

Yeah.

[Shane Gillis]

You'd be like, 5:1. Yeah. Be like, nice. I run a 5:1, put out recruiting tapes. Be like, Chad Gill, 643, £290 5, 140. And then I go to a camp to like 6:2. I was like, holy, I'm not going anywhere.

[Will]

Did you have offers?

[Shane Gillis]

Just. It was. I think it was Army. It was Army Temple in Eastern Michigan. Those were the. Down to the bottom three.

[Will]

You got offers?

[Shane Gillis]

I was down to the bottom three.

[Will]

Were you a dog in high school?

[Shane Gillis]

No, you can be honest. I was this in high school. I around. I was just big. I played small. I played double A, Pennsylvania football. It was small.

[Will]

Were you one of the, like, locker room favorites? Were you like the vibes guy?

[Shane Gillis]

I mean, I was the captain, but I was like, listen, let's skip working out today, right, fellas? Let's go around.

[Will]

Yo, you were a captain?

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah.

[Will]

That's sick.

[Shane Gillis]

It's pretty sick. You're right, dude. You're one of the only guys. You're one of the only guys as an adult that's like, yo, that's you, the high school football captain. That's sick. Sorry. Make me laugh.

[Will]

I thought you were the captain of West Point.

[Shane Gillis]

Oh, no. I was at West Point for three weeks. I showed up, dude. The vibes were not chill. Those guys, they were trying to work out so hard, dude. After three weeks, I got there and cried and went home. Dude, that was my military service. I sworn in. They shaved my head. I started crying and they're like, you can leave. I was like, all right, I'm out of here.

And then I went to Elon. I played one season at Elon.

[Will]

I would love to know like who your roommate was at your three weeks at West Point and be like hey.

[Shane Gillis]

You know it's funny, it was, it was my room. It wasn't my roommate at West Point, but I was in the class with Villanueva. That tackle from the Steelers. Oh no, me and him were in the same class. So we got recruited together. He was like 6:10 and he went on to become like an army Ranger and a 12 year NFL vet. Yeah, I was just in my parents house, my dad, we'd be watching the Steelers game. My dad was like no that's a man. He was like refusing to kneel during the national anthem. My dad was like that guy's tough. I'll sit there. Damn, dude, I'm trying to plug in the Xbox 360 in the basement. Got NCAA 14.

[Will]

You still with Villanueva?

[Shane Gillis]

No, I didn't know. I didn't know.

[Will]

Have you talked to him since, like.

[Shane Gillis]

No, no, no. You know, I didn't talk to him since I cried.

[Will]

Your comedic.

[Shane Gillis]

As soon as I cried, I left, bro.

[Will]

We got. Dude, Villanueva, the dude's got. He's got some jaw work on him. That's. There's no.

[Shane Gillis]

What, his face?

[Will]

No, the dude can talk.

[Shane Gillis]

Oh.

[Will]

For hours. Like, it's the deepest, bro. He can go down any rabbit hole.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, he's smart. He was a ar.

[Will]

Yeah, we got baked. We were at the Pro Bowl. Obviously, I wasn't a Pro bowl guy, but I was at the Pro Bowl.

[Shane Gillis]

You're hanging out.

[Will]

Yeah, we were hanging out. My man was just. We were just. We talked for, like, three hours, bro.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah.

[Will]

He saw you cry?

[Shane Gillis]

No, I don't think he was. He wasn't in my squad. Thank Christ.

[Will]

Hang on, let's get this straight.

[Shane Gillis]

Did you actually cry at West Point? I did cry, but not while they were probably not around. No, no, no, no. Not while they weren't shaving my head. And I was like, you're not a.

[Will]

Like that.

[Shane Gillis]

No. But one dude after, like. Yeah. You find out pretty quick. You're like, I up so bad. This sucks. Yeah.

[Will]

Just because of, like, the culture, like, all the. You have to do all the time. Yeah.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah.

[Will]

You're gonna be like the dude from a Full Metal Jacket.

[Shane Gillis]

I was close, dude. I was close.

[Will]

Just sitting on your. Yeah, she's getting the beat out of you. It's soap in your. The pillowcase.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, well, that's the other thing. It wasn't. West Point's boot camp is not like that. It's not like Vietnam Marines boot camp. It's fucking. West Point is designed for dorks to. It's for kids who got 1600s to become troops.

[Will]

So it's like, is it bad that I'm not aware of that?

[Shane Gillis]

No, I think you would. You wouldn't imagine that. It's not that hard. West Point's boot camp is not that hard. Okay? It is if you're £300 and don't want to be there. They make you do like 10 push ups at a time and then jog. Most of it's just standing still.

[Will]

Were you strong as. No, I'm just curious. I'm really curious.

[Shane Gillis]

I wasn't because I had a good frame. I'M long could have been, but I had no ass. I had a flat ass.

[Will]

Oh, that's so tough.

[Shane Gillis]

That's the worst. Yeah, this is the number. That's just a guaranteed. Like, that guy's. Can't be good at football when your.

[Will]

Lower back sticks out farther. Yes, I've still got that going.

[Shane Gillis]

Don't worry about that. My dad sent me a picture today because I did go on the tour. Sorry. Notre Dame. I did go on the tour. My dad took a picture of me, like, looking at, like, the Heisman trophies. It looks like I'm taking a piss. My back sticks out so much further than my ass. It literally looks like I'm standing there. Anyway. Oh, that's. Is this busting with the boys? What are we doing?

[Will]

This is busting with the boys.

[Shane Gillis]

This is good stuff. This is good stuff because the bros aren't laughing. They're sitting there dead silent. Dude.

[Will]

You guys need to start laughing.

[Shane Gillis]

You guys are too cool for school.

[Will]

We got five guys sitting around. We need an audience.

[Shane Gillis]

We need a little laugh.

[Will]

He's working some bit. I'm trying to work out some bits right now.

[Will]

Yeah, well, we got. We got the. We got the Nebraska, Minnesota game. It's 10.

Not. I didn't want. No, I didn't mean to be homophobic.

[Will]

That's not even homo. I'm not even talking homophobic. I'm just saying, you ain't got to call us like the pink shirts. We just say. We just got to say the black shirts are kind of dead right now. We're figuring it out. We're in a rebuild, unfortunately.

[Shane Gillis]

You guys would probably give note in the game.

[Will]

Yeah, I think so.

[Shane Gillis]

I mean, Notre Dame would be favored by like 10, but. Yeah, especially lose to anybody.

[Will]

But your guys's off seasons are always like, oh, this is the year.

[Shane Gillis]

That's not true. There's so many common misconceptions about Notre Dame football. That's one of them. That's one of them. You can check the last eight years where no names preseason rank and where they finished. No name finished higher until this year. That's how it works, bro. There's a lot of common misconceptions about no name.

[Will]

What's another one?

[Shane Gillis]

I mean, here's the truth. The last decade, Notre Dame's been so. It's been what? It's Ohio State, Alabama, Clemson, those three. Now Georgia's ascended. That's that's kind of it. Lsu, kind of Oklahoma, kind of. But no names in that second tier. That's always right there. It is what it is.

[Will]

No, I think that's arguable, though. Like, y'. All schedules, a little.

[Shane Gillis]

Look at this. There's. Oh, God.

[Will]

That's not a misconception.

[Shane Gillis]

Look at the strength of schedule. Every year, bro, it's not here.

[Will]

Yeah, but every year, the teams that are on that.

[Shane Gillis]

Google it, bro.

[Will]

Every team. Every team that's on that starts on your schedule. It looks nice. But then as the year unfolds, it's like, all these guys weren't that good. Like, well, you're going to claim Stanford and usc.

[Shane Gillis]

No, no, I'll claim Clemson. I'll claim Ohio State. We won at Ohio State.

[Will]

Got your ass whooped.

[Shane Gillis]

Clemson. We were leading in the second half. What are you talking about?

[Will]

Yeah, but you guys.

[Shane Gillis]

Close game.

[Will]

You guys ended up getting your ass whooped.

[Shane Gillis]

I think they lost my election and maybe.

[Will]

Was that right?

[Shane Gillis]

It's a close game. Oh, all right.

[Will]

All right. I might have been off. That's one year, though.

[Shane Gillis]

If you look up, I swear to God, not him. Strength of schedule is pretty intense. Every year they pick who they want to play, but they. They do pick, like, you know, they. They will play Georgia, Clemson, Ohio State. Now, it's been unfortunate that USC has sucked for a decade, but they're back now. It's. That's tough.

[Will]

It seems like I'm getting proved wrong right here. Let's switch it up. How's life been since getting canceled at snl? Like, what happened at snl?

[Shane Gillis]

It's been good. I developed a pretty nasty drinking habit, but other than that, shit's been pretty good.

[Will]

Just, oh, man, I saw you on a couple pods. Everybody always asks about this before you.

[Shane Gillis]

Got on the bus. Before you got on the bus. It's just me and Taylor. Taylor didn't know who I was. He thought I was a guy that entered the building. It was like, what's up, dude? And then he was like, so, snl. What's that like?

[Will]

Also, that's one of my biggest regrets.

[Shane Gillis]

Like, here's what we need to address, dude. First things.

[Will]

Hang on, hang on, hang on.

[Shane Gillis]

We'll get to that.

[Will]

Because I know what you want to address. That's one of my bigger regrets, because I started listening to all your stuff because we had our group chat going and everything else. I started listening to all this. I started consuming Shangillas. And then I realized, because I'd see the comments, like, These dudes don't even know who the big dog is for real. And I'm thinking, like, I should have done a little bit more homework. But that's probably my biggest regret.

[Shane Gillis]

Looking back on that pot. That's totally fine because we had a.

[Will]

Little bit of a Shane Gilly bump. You got an audience, bro.

[Shane Gillis]

I got the bro. You got the bros. Yeah, they're nasty little. Hop in there. Who are these two CTE retards? Shane's a retard, too.

[Will]

These dudes don't even know our big bro.

[Shane Gillis]

But could you, for the love of God, fix the camera angle on the bus, dude? Yeah, for a fat guy, dude, that side angle is insane. It's insane.

[Will]

How would you. How would you recommend.

[Shane Gillis]

No, I. It. Yeah, I mean, probably this. This end of the couch is sunk in, dude. I don't know.

[Will]

You're, like, sitting over there. Hey, the camera angles on the bus. Like.

[Shane Gillis]

Dude, I didn't realize I was Slaps like that now. You were right angle. The guest angle is I was bummed that we were hot in there. My dark red. The angle is up from the side. I'm like, yeah, was pretty tough, dude. I saw people after I did that episode. They were like, yo, you've been working out. You look good. You looked insane on that episode. We were worried about you on that episode.

[Will]

So anytime they saw you after the.

[Shane Gillis]

Episode'S not that bad.

[Will]

All right, let's.

[Shane Gillis]

Let's bust the boys. Camera adds 40 pounds, bro.

[Will]

That ain't. That's kind of true. Like, we did.

[Shane Gillis]

You guys are behind the table sitting down.

[Will]

We did the. We did the bet the bus the other day, and JP wanted me to sit in, like, all different angles so he could, like. So he could, like, he could do something funny with production. But I'm sitting there looking at myself in the corner. Compared to looking at myself. I unbuttoned my shirt to where my belly's hanging out, and then I had myself in Taylor's chair and me on the couch. I look massive, dude. And then in the corner where I'm at, I, like, look like a fit little boy.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, well, the couch, also the camera angle. You're close. You're the closest. You're just profile slouched on a chair.

[Will]

Like, we could probably work on that.

[Shane Gillis]

Nah, it. It's very funny. It's very funny. Just keep it. Dude, it's funny.

[Will]

Derek Henry doesn't look like that.

[Shane Gillis]

No, of course. Yeah. Derek Henry's literally a horse. That's a horse.

[Will]

All right, let's the case race. Is that. Is that what we want to talk about?

[Shane Gillis]

Let's talk about it.

[Will]

No, we gotta talk.

[Shane Gillis]

I've got nothing but regrets. I still regret it.

[Will]

I heard you on. I heard you on shows talking about it a little bit.

[Shane Gillis]

I haven't. You're the only one that looked good on that. And you.

[Will]

I came out. I did came. I did come out a little.

[Shane Gillis]

Oh, man.

[Will]

Except, like, nothing worse, like, I took some Adderall. Like, there's a room. The smallest little. I had to.

[Shane Gillis]

You.

[Will]

You. You. You set a different bar. I feel like I ruined it.

[Shane Gillis]

I ruined it. The competitive nature ruined it, but I. I enjoyed it. It was fun, dude.

[Will]

I had a good time, but I feel like I was talking you off a ledge a little bit. Those next few days, you had the scariest for like, the next.

[Shane Gillis]

I was done. Dude, dude, that hurt.

[Will]

Shane would text me like, hey, bro, I just. I've been reading the comments. I just. I want to take my own life right now.

[Shane Gillis]

That hurt, dude. Because then that Steven came in and tried to fight me, bro.

[Will]

Hey, dude, I was so hammered. I didn't even realize that that had happened.

[Shane Gillis]

I didn't even realize that happened. I literally, I was like, I. We woke up because, you know as soon as something like that happens while you're hammered, it's done. You're just like, all right, whatever. That guy was dumb. We. Me and him talked about it immediately after. It was fine. Yeah, normally you would never remember that, but then it's on the Internet and you get to watch that go down. And then people are like, man, Shane should have him up. What a. It's like, dude, you think I'm gonna get. I'm gonna get a wrestling match at barstool with face paint on.

[Will]

Wasn't it like, boy, he was kind of pushing the envelope. I felt like.

[Shane Gillis]

Like it took.

[Will]

It took a while for it to even get there. Because you weren't even.

[Shane Gillis]

No, I wouldn't.

[Will]

You weren't even being serious like that. Because I'm over there eating popcorn.

[Shane Gillis]

That's the other thing. I didn't know it was serious either. So I was like screaming at him, thinking, clearly, there's no way we're actually fighting. I was like, I have you fired. You want to get fired? Dumb. But I guess I will make sure you're fine. Yeah, in hindsight, it did look like I was serious. So maybe I lost it. I don't know. It was. What do you feel like?

[Will]

What do you feel like you would do different?

[Shane Gillis]

Nothing, dude. I win again. I would win again. I would continue to go. I'm defending my title every time they have that.

[Will]

Would you. You feel like you'd slow it down? Hey. Cause let's get. Let's not get it twisted.

[Shane Gillis]

You were base leaders. You guys were pushing the pace, but.

[Will]

You were always one ahead of us.

[Shane Gillis]

I know. I tried to stay one ahead the whole time, but.

[Will]

And Rome wasn't drinking.

[Shane Gillis]

Like, he didn't drink a goddamn thing. 17 beers in an hour. I was retarded. We're not the Black Eyed Peas. We don't say it like that.

[Will]

Nick and I were like the. An actual.

[Shane Gillis]

Like, you guys were working.

[Will]

Yeah, like, I don't have to look him in the eyes and be, hey, you got a drink? Do you see this fucking machine over.

[Shane Gillis]

Guys were working, dude.

[Will]

Because I was blacked, bro. Like, I mean, we were all blacked out.

[Shane Gillis]

You, dude, I. I don't. I never want. I never re. Watched the full thing, but what I remember was you trying to shake the hand of the delivery guy. And it's one of my favorite things. I'm like, you with no pants, sting face paint. Like, I just want to shake your hand, sir. And everyone's like, everyone's like, will, sit down, dude. Just chill the out. I'm just trying to shake his head. Oh, yeah. I mean, you came out good because you're the bro. You're the funny. You're the nicest, funniest dude. But like, yeah, we started watching highlights.

[Will]

In the middle of the fucking case race. We started throwing on in Dominican sue highlights.

[Shane Gillis]

I love him now. He's a beast.

[Will]

The problem was. I felt like the problem was some of the vibes of the other boy, of the other boys were off.

[Shane Gillis]

I don't want to blame them off. I don't want to blame those guys, but I felt like they were saying weird shit to me.

[Will]

Let's do it. We're not going to blame them at all. We're not in the blame type of game. But let's just say we're in the film room. Let's say we're sitting there, we got the squad, we're running the team meeting.

[Shane Gillis]

Okay.

[Will]

The outside noise. That'll take care of itself. Listen, we're all about the fellows inside these four walls. But if we're going to take accountability for what happened. I felt like KB was off. He came in with some weird. Some weird negative vibes because he was talking about the scholarships of.

[Shane Gillis]

With wrestlers.

[Will]

With wrestlers and football players, players that don't. And he. But he was trying to take care of like some rent stuff that was going on. So he had some weird vibes. I felt like Sass's vibes were off a little bit.

[Shane Gillis]

I got.

[Will]

Because I feel like Sass was. I feel like Sass was like. You were kind of rubbing off on him a little bit.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, but I was. I would. I tried to body Sass early, but clearly that's out of friendship. Yeah, you, like, that would never be like.

[Will]

I felt like Sass was trying to like, become a little bit more of like, you know, trying to make you laugh because you're the. You're the. You're the big dog. You're the Big dog comedian.

[Shane Gillis]

Well, see, that's the thing that hurts is whenever I get started getting calling like, the big dog, and like, that's what it seemed to happen, where they would be like, is this funny? Is this funny? And I'd be like, you're alter ego. Like, I can't. I can't. I'm not gonna. I'm not the big Dog. Like, I'm a. I'm drinking 17 beers and pissing myself. Like, I'm not. I don't know. I don't know.

[Will]

And in some way, in that, in.

[Shane Gillis]

The middle of it, you became Big Cat's nasty.

[Will]

Big Cat is.

[Shane Gillis]

People don't know that. Big Cat's a little nasty. Yeah, good, bro.

[Will]

Real good, bro. But he's low key. Sticking the knife in you a little bit back.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, yeah. He enjoys the drama.

[Will]

He knows how to jab, and he knows how to, like, pull back in the middle. He knows how to do a jab. And then in the middle of throwing the jab, he, like, somehow plays victim.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, he's good at it.

[Will]

Yeah, he's good.

[Shane Gillis]

He stirs the pot. Yeah, he stirred the pot immediately. He came in while I was getting my face paint, was like, dude, I didn't know Will. And you had beef first off.

[Will]

Yeah, bro.

[Shane Gillis]

We never had first of. I know what you're doing. So I just ignored it. I was like, yeah, I do have beef with him. Him. I'm gonna him up because, I mean.

[Will]

Yeah.

[Shane Gillis]

But he was immediately. And then there started me chatter. There was like, you think you can win this? And, like, it would. It got competitive. People were like, no, I'm definitely gonna win.

[Will]

I'm gonna be real. I had nerves going into it because I saw the photos of you a Rogan, the beers everywhere. Like, oh, this is the big dog. Yeah. And Shane hit me up. He's like, hey, we're we doing this? I was like, yo, I was fired up to do. I was fired up to put on.

[Shane Gillis]

A show with you.

[Will]

Yeah.

[Shane Gillis]

And then when I saw you were doing it, I was like, all right, I'm in. And Roan, that was also my favorite part is toward the end, you started turning on Rome.

[Will]

Yeah.

[Shane Gillis]

You're like, she didn't drink anything. He wasn't talking, though. He wasn't even talking.

[Will]

I know, but you. How can you talk when you weren't any part.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, I know, but you just stood up. You were standing over it. Drink a thing.

[Will]

Just randomly, a player starts attacking an equipment manager. He didn't do. Bro, would you do it again.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah.

[Will]

I don't know. But at the beginning when you first got out, you're like, I would never. I feel like you probably never do that again.

[Shane Gillis]

I. I think we could do it and have fun now that we've all done it together and know how bad it can go. Yeah. No, Money Money Talk was the most embarrassing.

[Will]

That's the most embarrassing because I even joined in on some of it, too. That's when I. That's when I'm like, oh, you know, it gets weird.

[Shane Gillis]

And that' the most crippling.

[Will]

I don't even remember. I don't even want to try and.

[Shane Gillis]

Figure out what we said, but I don't either. It was something about how much you make. It was something. It was bad. And then the pizza guy showed up, and we were all like, I'll tip him $400. And it got like. Insulting this guy was. He was. Yeah. I felt like it was pretty insane. It felt like one of those YouTube videos where they're like, watch how much money I gave this homeless guy. He like, I'm just delivering pizza. And Will stands on I want to shake your hand. It's so scary.

[Will]

The penis jokes.

[Shane Gillis]

Adderall Dick.

[Will]

The penis jokes that came out of that, bro. I have JJ Reddick text me the next morning, like, hey, what were you doing with your pants off? Well, how'd you know about that? He's like, I have sources inside the building. And then apparently all the yak, they have a group chat talking about my. Not even a horn. Like a little turtle head there.

[Shane Gillis]

Anybody's dick on Adderall is minuscule.

[Will]

I just need that out there. I need that out there. That it was.

[Shane Gillis]

We were also. I. I might have been one of the guys pointed out and saying nasty things about it, but for real, Hey.

[Will]

I think you did.

[Shane Gillis]

I think you did. Probably. That sounds funny.

[Will]

I don't even know how my pants got off, bro. Just all of a sudden.

[Shane Gillis]

Oh.

[Will]

And then they just ended up. Gotta keep the information at a. Which, by the way, I had a workout now.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, I know.

[Will]

You're like, hey. Immediately, when I got to work out with Atlanta, I hit up Shane.

[Shane Gillis]

I was like, hey, oh, that was a nasty thing I said on the bar stool.

[Will]

He's like, bro, you give up, dude?

[Shane Gillis]

Look at you. It really said. And he was wearing face paint. Like, oh, maybe this guy's right. Yeah, I. Dude, I love mine, dude. His was really. His was good. His was good. Mine was the funniest looking.

[Will]

Yeah, I thought the.

[Shane Gillis]

The way you guys the way you.

[Will]

Guys, you need up on the helmets is a funny look because Nick backed out on me with the wrestling.

[Shane Gillis]

I don't know, man. Those yak. No, I like that. For real. Those guys are the best. Dog. We gotta get. We. Yeah, we just have a nice time.

[Will]

I think we gotta do it again.

[Shane Gillis]

We're gonna do it again. Unless the belt. Unless this were the champions forever, me and Ron.

[Will]

I was trying to get me and you on a team.

[Shane Gillis]

Looking back at it like, yeah, be a bloodbath. Yeah.

[Will]

It would have been over.

[Shane Gillis]

I was disappointed in Ron's intake. He.

[Will]

I, I legitimately think he had four.

[Shane Gillis]

He was trying as hard as he could.

[Will]

No, he wasn't.

[Shane Gillis]

I.

[Will]

No, he wasn't.

[Shane Gillis]

True. I, I was.

[Will]

But in Rome's defense, like, I would ride those coattails too. Like the way. Because we actually had you in the last.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, you guys were off like one.

[Will]

Literally just chugged two and one. You're like, oh, you like looked around like, hey, it's all good.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, hit both. And I was like, next thing you know, I'm on a couch having a heart to heart with sass about stand up comedy.

[Will]

I think everyone had a hard dart with sass that night, bro. Telling a stand up.

[Shane Gillis]

That's another thing. I don't like the commenters going to sass for that night.

[Will]

He was getting.

[Shane Gillis]

Can you imagine being 21 doing that?

[Will]

All the he had that he does do and he's like 21. Like everybody, I feel like misses the point that, yeah, he's a young cat in the game.

[Shane Gillis]

He's 21. Dude. If I did a case race, I mean, it was bad. I'm 34 and that was embarrassing. Thirteen years ago, that would have been nuts. I would have cried. I would have cried and sit around.

[Will]

All those dudes too, bro.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah.

[Will]

Anyway, that was a good, that was a good topic.

[Shane Gillis]

Irish Clemson -4.

[Will]

Yeah. I got Notre Dame 1, though. I mean, it's obviously going to come out after the fact, but I do think. I do, I do think Notre Dame's.

[Shane Gillis]

I think Notre Dame had a chance until they banned me from their facilities.

[Will]

You got in, though?

[Shane Gillis]

I got in on the. A little back door.

[Will]

He was like, he's like, I don't need you guys. I was like, hang on. Now we are team Gilly. We can talk. We can talk about the Gillian Keys.

[Shane Gillis]

Broke my heart.

[Will]

How's that doing?

[Shane Gillis]

It's good.

[Will]

What's that mean? You just got.

[Shane Gillis]

Don't trick me into drinking and talking about money again. Gillian keeps did good.

[Will]

That's good, right? Yeah, I feel like you're kind of on the wave of like the, like maybe it's off but like the Andrew shows where you guys kind of. Yeah, yeah, you can put your stand up on YouTube.

[Shane Gillis]

On YouTube.

[Will]

Seem like life's been good since the whole cancellation thing.

[Shane Gillis]

Yes.

[Shane Gillis]

Oh yeah.

[Will]

Hey hey, hey. How much, how much has the Rogan?

[Shane Gillis]

Is the Rogan bump bumps insane?

[Will]

How many times you've been on Rogan?

[Shane Gillis]

I did Rogan like five times this year. So that's like get, get.

[Will]

Okay, we, we ain't got to talk about money. Let's talk about, let's talk about audience like what I Need to hear something tangible about this Rogan bump. Then I need you to get me.

[Shane Gillis]

So I did. I did Rogan once, and the episode was not great. I was nervous. We talked about snl. I was just nervous. I never met him really. So it was just a one on one. And it was like. It was bad. It wasn't good.

[Will]

Like, are you talking, like night before day of.

[Shane Gillis]

You're just night before. I was like, holy. Like this. And it was the same. It was the week after I filmed my special. Or the same week. It was very. I think it was the same week I was in Austin. So it was just an intense week and I was by myself. I was standing at Tim Dillon's house that he wasn't at. So I was just in like a mansion in the hills in Texas, alone, doing the most important things in my career and then going home into an empty mansion. Like, what the. And then, yeah, we did Rogan and it was like. I don't know. I was. I was just nervous. So you get done. It was like a bomb went off. It was like that ringing, like, whoa, I just died. And you don't see it. If you have a bad episode, you don't see a bump. There's no real. I mean, you'll get a bump, like 10,000 followers or something like that, but nothing. But then we started doing me, Ari and Norman with him. It's more of a party.

[Will]

You guys did like. You guys did like your own kind of case race.

[Shane Gillis]

I felt like, yeah, somewhat. Yeah, unfortunately. Ari. Yeah, we just drank as much as we could. Ari. Ari tried to drink with me and he died. Then Rogan tried last episode. He died.

[Will]

Is that one out?

[Shane Gillis]

It is, but there was some editing going on, dude.

[Will]

Really?

[Shane Gillis]

Rogies got on there and edited some things out.

[Will]

As in, like, saving. Showing how bad of an ass beating it was type of deal like that.

[Shane Gillis]

No, it wasn't. It wasn't the pride about the drinking. It was the pride about how up he was. It was crazy, dude. Well, we had a beer bong. It was the end of the podcast. We all started bonging beers. Like, this was the. The last one we did together. Sorry, I'm losing my voice. The last one we did together was like the first one that was like, kind of sober until the end. At the very end, Jamie brought out a beer bong and we all started bonging beers. And Joe's competitive and he was like, I can drink with you. I can bong just as many as you. And I was like, were you trying.

[Will]

To Tell him, like, hey, listen.

[Shane Gillis]

No, you can't. No, I was instantly. I was like, let's go, dude. Please. Because I've never seen Rogan obliterated.

[Will]

You're right, dude.

[Shane Gillis]

We bonged, like, five or six in, like, 20 minutes. He was. He turned gray. His face was gray, and he was like. But he was. He was blacked out, but he was still in, like, podcast mode. So he'd be, like, talking to the mic, and we were all just hanging out. The show was clearly over. We're just sitting in the studio talking. He was like, say that into the mic. And we're like, joe, dude, we can't use this. We cannot use. His head.

[Will]

Falls into it.

[Shane Gillis]

We stayed. We stayed in the room for, I'd say, five, five and a half hours. And the podcast is three hours long, so for two hours, it was just. Rogan blacked out.

[Will]

Like, had to take it out.

[Shane Gillis]

Come on, fellas. Dude, Jamie, pull that up. Jamie, pull up the video I showed you.

[Will]

So what's the order? What if those bumps look like? Since that.

[Shane Gillis]

Those have been huge.

[Will]

Massive.

[Shane Gillis]

Massive.

[Will]

Like, do you go on, like, Gillian Keeves come out? You're like, yo, I'm gonna get on the. I'm gonna jump. I'm gonna hop on the pod. I'm sure he's like, hey, you want to come on the pod?

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, he's. Dude, he's. Yeah. There's a lot of those comics that are out there. Joe's. Joe Rogan's like, the man at, like, helping. If he thinks you're funny, he'll help you. It's.

[Will]

You're a funny cat.

[Shane Gillis]

It's cool. There's a lot of guys that are, like, big and famous that would be, like, you know, try to keep the new guys down.

[Will]

Yeah, I can't let you get too big.

[Shane Gillis]

He's. He's one that's, like, delighted if shit's going well for other people.

[Will]

Is there, like a. Is there, like, little clicks in the comedian world?

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, but it's all self. It's all perceived.

[Will]

It seems like you're in the good click. You're. It seems like.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, but it's all perceived. Like, before I was in this. This group, I was like, this group. Like. Like, you start with the.

[Will]

You and our group, and then you ascended to the Rogan group.

[Shane Gillis]

No, no, no, no, no. I mean, before I was with the guys I'm with now. So, like, with Rogan and his. All those LA comics that were like, Rogan and Bert and Segura and all These guys?

[Will]

Yeah.

[Shane Gillis]

Before I met. I was an open micro in Philly. I'd be sitting there like, those guys, they're not that good. They suck. Yeah. Then you, they're like, hey, you're pretty good. You're like, dude, you guys are the best. I love you guys. I love you guys so much. I was just being gay, dude. I mean, that's how it works in anything. In anything. Yeah, it really is like, you know what I mean?

[Will]

I do know what you mean. I just thought you were about to drop something right there, but then I saw.

[Shane Gillis]

No, you're just taking a picture. I was just burping favored.

[Will]

No, I know what you mean. It's like you kind of like you're salty because you're not in the world. You're like, it's a selfish thing. Yeah.

[Shane Gillis]

It's a self defense.

[Will]

You're projecting your own because you, you know, you're.

[Shane Gillis]

You, like, better than them. It's like, no, you're not. I would say I'm better than people. When I was like, I had five minutes of material, I'd be like, that guy sucks, dude. And then you meet them and you're like, I'm. I'm the biggest douche of all time.

[Will]

Yeah. You're like, this dude's a good dude.

[Shane Gillis]

Yep.

[Will]

But I think that's normal. I think everybody.

[Shane Gillis]

I literally think everybody's like. And then you watch him kill. Like, I remember there was a comic that I was like, I like, all over him. I was like, this guy sucks. And then I happened to do a show with him that night and he just murdered. And I had to follow him. And I was like, dave, are you.

[Will]

Not allowed to say him since you've given him.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, I don't want to talk about.

[Will]

No, See, I feel like if I talk on somebody, I'd be like, I was wrong about this.

[Shane Gillis]

I think I've said it to him.

[Will]

That's good.

[Shane Gillis]

But yeah. Yeah.

[Will]

So you want to say it into the mic.

[Shane Gillis]

I'm just. No.

[Will]

How long we've been rolling, I feel like, because one thing, like, we're literally. It's game day.

[Shane Gillis]

It's Notre Dame games, drinking beers with my dad.

[Will]

I know. And it was a good vibe. We had a good vibe going on. I hated being like, hey, we had the pod lined up and we couldn't get it. We couldn't get it in this morning. I do appreciate you. Like.

[Shane Gillis]

No, I've been excited about this, dude. You guys rule busting with the boys is.

[Will]

It's the dude you with busting with the boys.

[Shane Gillis]

I really do.

[Will]

I hate the. Taylor couldn't be here.

[Shane Gillis]

I know. That would have been fun. I would have liked to have told him how much I hate Michigan. I. I hate Michigan, bro.

[Will]

Yeah. Cause you were saying when you were on the bus the first time you felt like you weren't really like going at us on moments where you would be like, you know, you'd big though, you big dog.

[Shane Gillis]

No, I was with Michigan. Here's the Michigan. They have half a title since Adolf Hitler was alive. Half a title since then. And here's the thing, like right now, everybody's like, michigan's good. They're doing what Michigan always. They're missing. They've had one win in the last. How many years. They beat Ohio State last year. That's it. Now all of a sudden everyone's like, michigan. Stop. Michigan could be Clemson. What?

[Will]

I mean, Michigan could. I feel it could be Clemson.

[Shane Gillis]

I know Clemson's not.

[Will]

Yeah, Clemson's not. Nice. That's the thing, like to me.

[Shane Gillis]

Resumes.

[Will]

You, you think, you think Michigan's the most fraudulent undefeated team.

[Shane Gillis]

I do.

[Will]

You. Hang on, hang on. So this is going to come out. I mean, everybody's listening. We got the bus and bowl now that everybody's listening. We got the busting ball this weekend.

[Shane Gillis]

I'm Big Red, dude. I think.

[Will]

You think, you think we got a shot.

[Shane Gillis]

No, I think.

[Will]

Oh, it happened. It's 2010.

[Shane Gillis]

Minnesota's running away with this thing, dude.

[Will]

Rebuild year.

[Shane Gillis]

No, I think Michigan's gonna run the ball down your throats.

[Will]

I thought you just said you were big Red, brother.

[Shane Gillis]

I'm big Red, dudes. It's gonna be a tough one. Michigan is good. I'm not saying that.

[Will]

You just said they weren't good. We need, we need some juice. We need juice going into the bus.

[Shane Gillis]

I just hate Michigan and I hate that just that one game which everybody in the world was cheering for. I was cheering for him when they beat Ohio State last year. That was fun. Ohio State. I do hate Ohio State. Unless Michigan beats them, then I. Michigan's. They're the worst. Dude. I used to hate Penn State. I used to think Penn State was the gayest team of all time. Turns out it's Michigan.

[Will]

Michigan. I, I will say this. I'm surprised that Taylor being a first round pick and all that, all the stuff he's accomplished in the NFL that we can't get more than a couple. More than just two sideline passes.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, you should be upset about that, dude. You should Go down there with a AR15. You should go straighten some things out.

[Will]

He had an illness. He had a mental illness.

[Shane Gillis]

Now they. I don't know. Let's say Michigan loses that. You can't do that in football. So that's a bad argument. That's their one win. Harbaugh before that one Michigan, Ohio State win. Harbaugh is on the way out. Dude. He has sucked the entire time so far this year. They're only wins Penn State, their schedule has to be dead last in the country. It's the worst schedule I've ever seen.

[Will]

But to just play devil's advocate, just.

[Shane Gillis]

All basing Michigan being good off of the one win last year.

[Will]

But to play devil's advocate, they've took care of business with all their.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, they've run the. They've rushed for 400 yards against Hawaii. Yes, consistently.

[Will]

That's a good clubback.

[Shane Gillis]

They beat the. Out of who they got today. Rutgers. They got UConn, UMass or whoever the. They play every week. It's unbelievable. Now, as a Notre Dame fan. Yes. We lost to Marshall at home. I'm not saying we're good.

[Will]

And Stanford, you guys also.

[Shane Gillis]

Stanford sucks. I'm not saying no name wouldn't get destroyed by Michigan this year. Notre Dame does suck right now. I'm not saying that. You know what I mean?

[Will]

Yeah, yeah.

[Shane Gillis]

This isn't about no name.

[Will]

You're trying to be an objective.

[Shane Gillis]

I'm saying Michigan is overrated. It's annoying. And I hate to see teams get rewarded for having a soft schedule because that's what happens. Alabama gets it every year.

[Will]

Alabama gets what?

[Shane Gillis]

Rewarded for having a weak ass schedule. They play one away game every season. Dude. It's insane.

[Will]

Yeah, that's.

[Shane Gillis]

Now they obviously.

[Will]

Obviously just start. Yeah. Yeah. You got. Really, you got. That's a great point. He said that's where he went to school.

[Shane Gillis]

Obviously our members, they're the best team without a doubt in college football history. Without a doubt. They're still getting rewarded on some.

[Will]

Yeah, that's all I'm saying. I feel like the acc, bro. Like.

[Shane Gillis]

Is it. Who's come to play this year? I don't know. Syracuse, they played. Wake's actually not bad. Wakes better than every team. Wake and Wake and Penn State. Syracuse and Penn State close just as good as anybody. Michigan's played. But I don't hear people saying Clemson's the best. I hear people saying Michigan's great. Everyone's going. Clemson kind of sucks.

[Will]

That's fair. I wish Taylor was here to go back and forth about it because I, I like, I see, I see, I do see that side of it. Like, I root for the blue just because obviously your boys.

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah, boys. Even though.

[Will]

And we, and we need, and we need that. And we need the Big Ten. We need the Big Ten to show out.

[Shane Gillis]

I hate the Big Ten.

[Will]

See, I'm probate.

[Shane Gillis]

But with the, with the emergence of the SEC in the last couple years, I'm becoming a Big Ten man. Why?

[Will]

Because the SEC just, I love white people. Hey, that will be the end of the trailer.

[Shane Gillis]

There you go. No, I, I, Yeah, I just like the North. I hate the set. This Southern football is so annoying. A bunch of white racists in a stadium being like, oh, you yikes. Don't know it. It's like, bro, you racist.

[Will]

Oh, do you go to their game day experiences though?

[Shane Gillis]

What? Yeah, I mean, it's your rules.

[Will]

It's a good time.

[Shane Gillis]

It does time. I just hate to see all those southern racists. It just keeps benefiting off of black athletes.

[Will]

Hey, your stand up bit on Bama.

[Shane Gillis]

Bro, that's from the heart.

[Will]

Dude, that is so funny, man.

[Shane Gillis]

I was, I was watching a thing about Alabama's first black players and they're like, it was 1971. And I was like, Jesus Christ, 71. They had the first black guy.

[Will]

And in the bit you're like, they.

[Shane Gillis]

Lost the U.S. it was that USC. USC came down to Tuscaloosa and blocked them off a bunch of black dudes from la. And they were like, all right, let's tone it down a little. Stop being racist for a couple weeks.

[Will]

You trying to get in the gambling space?

[Shane Gillis]

Me, like, yeah, me personally, I like gambling.

[Will]

Do you, you like talking ball?

[Shane Gillis]

I do, but would you make it? It's unbelievable how much I am wrong about football.

[Will]

Hang on though. That's not even what matters. What matters is the passion, the conviction behind what you say. Hey, you know what I'm talking about. Oh, hey, how about this? Would you, would you make a trip once a week next year and maybe a little gambling show perhaps?

[Shane Gillis]

Yeah.

[Will]

Talk ball.

[Shane Gillis]

Yes. I'm in the works right now with some of that, so hurry up.

[Will]

Oh, really?

[Shane Gillis]

Get your offers in.

[Will]

Oh, I'm just thinking like in the future, like other stuff you make. Like, I enjoy doing the bet the bus stuff, like doing my, the whole payoff Willie thing. But I think it'd be fun to like to talk shop, like a locker room, talk vibes, like, we're talking.

[Shane Gillis]

I would just do like. You ever watch David Tell's insomniac It's great. David Tell would go to city to city and he would get, he would find the weirdest places. He would get up there and show you the nightlife. Just do that with college football. Just do a blog every week or a vlog of like, we're in Tuscaloosa, here's the bar, we're in South Bend. We go to linebacker. We get up, here's the picks, here's this show the game. I mean, that's a good video.

[Will]

Are you trying to do that?

[Shane Gillis]

Yes. Buzzing with the boys. There we go.

[Will]

Buzzing with the boys.

[Shane Gillis]

Blacked out with Bojangles chicken.

[Will]

And that's the, that's the perfect way to. That's the perfect. Yeah, Busting with the boys.
