[Mitch]

It was great.

[George Kittle]

I feel like we're making America great again.

[Will Compton]

So we had Jack and Garrett. They traveled international. They went to Greece, they went to Italy. We'll talk about that. You know, jp, he went to South Carolina. Your boy went to Bonter, Missouri. Hell of a car ride. On the way down to Missouri. Hell of a car ride. We had two kiddos getting over some sickness. Is about a five, five and a half hour drive. And you not at least. This is a conservative number, at least three and a half hours. One of them were screaming. One of them was screaming, yeah, Scotty, she's a seven month old. She was a lot of the time rude. Just started to get upset. She's yelling at Scotty. That hurts my ears. Ruse screaming.

[Unknown]

How many songs were played over the course of five hours? Maybe five songs.

[Will Compton]

Maybe. I was going to say three, five, four. You know, your boy. What helped get Scotty to quiet down is Twinkle, twinkle little star. So I am the twinkle, twinkle little star artist. Just on absolute repeat like the entire time or just. I'm working on my breathing, just going, yeah, yeah, Charlie hit it when I'm taking a breath. Then I try to time it up when she's taking a breath as we're trying to get her to sleep. It was, it was diabolical on the, on the car ride to Missouri, however, the trip to Missouri was awesome. Did not win the cornhole tournament. Hung out with a lot of good friends. The guy with what the. No, he lost. He was with. He had, he had a tough partner. He had a tough partner, but he was a ringer, bro. But he's got the little cigarette. Just popping it in every time while he's throwing and he's like, he's hitting the holes left and right like you're playing the 21. I know in his first game, he hit every hole except for about five. Like, he's just like automatic. But shout out to Dylan and Chuck. Dylan and Chuck, they won. They won the cornhole tournament. We got balanced, myself and Adam Freudle, the gentleman who was taking us around it. Saint. The St. Louis Cardinals game. And he's won four years in a row. So him. Us partnering up. I've won with him before. We thought we were going to sweep the entire board. We got bounce and double elimination. We went, I think, one and two in the tournament. We went one into tournament. Some tough teams. Tough teams out there. The first. So when we got there on Thursday, we went over to my brother, his girlfriend. Their. Her family has like this massive party to where they just start off like family and friends. And then by the time it gets dark, we didn't get to stay for the fireworks because you got to get the kids down. It's like 9, 9, 9:30 when the fireworks are going off. But they spend about $6,500 on fireworks. A firework show. You're in this yard, they got a lot of acres that you're in this yard. They got all the big dogs just setting up all over the yard. Dudes, like, certified and licensed to do the. The lighting the fireworks. And Cody was telling me that any given year, there'll be hundreds of people just parked on the side of the road just sitting and watching their show because their show is like, better than the. Better than Farmington show, better than bonter. Anybody who has a fireworks show going on for the city or for the town, like, it's better than all. He's like, it's so good, it starts to get boring. But that's how serious they take their fireworks in Missouri. If there's one thing that Missouri takes serious, it's fireworks. I mean, a stand on every corner. Buy three, get one free, Buy one, get four free. Just every deal that you can possibly imagine. Yeah, Jerry's Fireworks is a building that sits there. You know, when you're driving down the highway, you always know that Jerry's Fireworks is sitting there because it's only open for like a couple weeks out of the year. And it sits there all year round. And it's just. Missouri does fireworks. Missouri does fireworks.

[Unknown]

July 4th has to be the biggest BDE for Dad's holiday of the year, bro.

[Will Compton]

Because it's. It's the one time, like, I. I saw somebody hating on the 4th of July.

[Taylor Lewan]

Horrible.

[Will Compton]

Saying that you can make. You can make burgers every weekend. You can do. You can have these, like, summer outings every weekend, but it's not. It's not the same like Fourth of July. You have the time off, you have the weekend set. You have the intention behind it. You have people bringing in dishes. You have. Everything is going on. There's a water slide happening where we're at. You got the water slides, you got the poppers going off for the little kids in the. In the. When it's light out, kids firing off bottle rockets everywhere. But it's so intentional, and I agree with you. I think it's the best day for fathers. Yeah. Throughout the year. Throughout the year. What? Before we get into Greece and Italy. Jp, how was your. How was your Fourth of July weekend?

[Unknown]

Fourth July weekend was good. We were in the water with a lot of sitting. Has a lot of cousins and nieces and nephews. So we're in there playing around, splashing around, which was fun. They do fireworks on the beach is awesome because you get to see down the whole entire thing. So we're in Litchfield. You can almost see to Myrtle Beach. You look left, you look right, you have all the fireworks you need.

[Will Compton]

That's awesome.

[Unknown]

A lot of really good barbecue in South Carolina, obviously. So the food was hitting. There's a pool that kind of backs up to the beach, which is always nice because the kids are always going back and forth.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

And then we went to Charleston the next day because hopefully they post it, but my brother got engaged to his girlfriend. They both went to College of Charleston. They live in Naples, Florida, right now. So we were all there. I got to see my whole family, both my brothers, my. My mom and dad in Charleston.

[Will Compton]

If.

[Unknown]

If people haven't been to Charleston, like, Charleston is one of the best cities in the country.

[Will Compton]

It's a really good city. Right.

[Unknown]

I don't say it lightly.

[Will Compton]

You don't have to anymore because we went out there for your wedding. Like, you just get to see the. The farmers market that goes on on the weekend. The downtown area is amazing. Yeah.

[Unknown]

The beaches, too. Like, I. That's what Florida doesn't have that, like the Carolinas do have is just the big beaches with tons of, like, sand area.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

And we're just walking on Sullivan's island, and I'm like, man, this is.

[Will Compton]

I bet it's beautiful, too, because like we were saying at this cute little Airbnb in Farmington. So when we went back and we were still awake, like, when it is dark out so you can see some fireworks, like over the trees and stuff like that. So you're kind of just sitting there enjoying the night. But I can only imagine that it's just probably gorgeous when it's dark out. The heat and the humidity is kind of calm down. You're kind of feeling a little bit of that area. You're just sitting on the beach. You're looking left, you're looking right. Fireworks works going off everywhere.

[Unknown]

Kids are hype.

[Will Compton]

Kids are hype. Parents are finally in that moment to where the day is done. You're kind of just talking about pretty much gratitude, like, fired up that everybody's gotten in the same place. You're just watching the fireworks go. You're celebrating America, the greatest country on earth.

[Unknown]

You know, the kids are going to sleep good.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Because they. They played all day, and they're, like, fighting for their lives to stay awake.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Unknown]

So the parents are happy. They're like, we're about to have a good night's sleep.

[Taylor Lewan]

How is everyone?

[Unknown]

Everyone waits on the 4th.

[George Kittle]

How is the parade?

[Unknown]

The parade is. The parade is the ultimate. Like, try that in a small town parade. You just got people like that. The boat just kind of. That's actually a car. There was, like, a produce stand that was a boat that was going. Kids are in, like, the back of trucks spraying water guns at people. The small beach town fourth of July parade has to be top parade in the country.

[Will Compton]

How many. How many. How many dads are making comments during that parade, being like, it's a hot one out here today. Well, there.

[Unknown]

There's all contests, so you can win best float, you can win best house decoration. Sittings. Aunt and uncle have one, or I guess her cousin. They've won best house, like, five years in a row.

[Will Compton]

Oh, that's awesome. Yeah.

[Unknown]

Dynasty. So it was great.

[Will Compton]

Sherman. You had a. You had an eventful weekend. Don't say to, you know, say a little bit. You. Sherman. Sherman Young. He's officially a father. Part of Papa Team St. A lot of the story will drop on for the dads, which will come out. You're listening to this right now, on Tuesday for the dads. Drops on Wednesday. But, Sherm, congratulations, bro.

[George Kittle]

Thank you.

[Will Compton]

Seemed like it was a nice, smooth, celebratory. Very.

[George Kittle]

Yes, very smooth. Very celebratory. I gotta give credit where credit's due. Jilly Bean crushed it. I was in awe the entire time. And I'm not saying that to score points. It's just, like, you see the whole process, and you're sitting there and you're like, yo, my wife's a beast. Like, this is crazy. Didn't see any fireworks, but we got our own little firecracker. We got scarlet in the world. I think that is my first official 4th of July where I did not see a firework, which is kind of crazy thinking back on it, but it was, it was so much fun, dude. And it's just gonna make 4th of July next year that much more fun that her birthday is July 3rd. So we're gonna celebrate, have a party for I'm sure and then very next day. What, what is that? Fourth of July. Let's go.

[Unknown]

Honestly, a huge like if your birthday is on 4th of July, kind of similar to how you're being a birthday on Christmas, not as much like, ah, man, my birthday is like. Because I feel like if you're on Christmas, that's different. Fourth of July, everyone's partying, having a good time, but if you got the 3rd of July birthday, you get to enjoy your birthday and then there's always the follow up day.

[Will Compton]

So because 4th of July is just a massive celebr is in Christmas with JP battle on Christmas, like, everyone's getting gifts and you're thinking about everybody else is getting thought of. When it's your birthday, everybody's intentionally getting thought of, you know, in all the best ways. But it's not like everyone's stepping out in the sun, a weekend set aside to just celebrate. And if it happens to be your birthday, it's like even that it's that much better of a celebration.

[Unknown]

And like a third of the July, if it was the 5th of July, that's it's almost even more of a bummer because everyone's tuckered out, you're tired. It's like we've been in the sun all weekend, we've been drinking, like, let's just chill and watch movies today.

[Will Compton]

And if Jack's like, if Jack's like, oh, oh, it's Jack's birthday. You're like, dude, happy birthday. We're also celebrating Jack's birthday. Everybody's like, yeah. It's like JP is almost like a second thought. It's like, oh, it's your birthday. It's like, hey, happy birthday, man. What'd you get for Christmas? Then he's got to answer the question, does it suck that you share Christmas with your birthday? You don't get as many presents. And he just, it's the same thing all the time.

[George Kittle]

Jp, Happy early birthday. Happy early birthday. Yeah, dude. And to that point, I do want to make it like a yearly tradition that, that to kick off the 4th of July we do the Scarlet birthday fireworks show. So I'll. I'll make it my mission that every single year, she has her own fireworks show on the third that night to kind of, like, kick off the festivities of the 4th.

[Will Compton]

Love that.

[Taylor Lewan]

Love it.

[George Kittle]

So I hope to keep that tradition alive.

[Will Compton]

Mitch, you got to see. I mean, arguably, my goat. Your goat, your king, your lord. We up, Steve.

[Mitch]

Yeah. So I. I need to. I'd be remiss if I didn't shout out Cam. He hooked everything up. He's the art director over there at sr. He, like, Stevenson Ranch makes all the merch. I'm wearing it all right now. But, yeah, I got. I got to see Mike finally. I had one of my buddies, Andy, and his fiance Liz, come down for it. He's the one that actually put me onto Mike. But, yeah, it was. We had, like, great seats.

[Taylor Lewan]

Just.

[Mitch]

He's literally right there, and it's like, wow. I mean, this is really.

[Unknown]

When he.

[Will Compton]

When he.

[Unknown]

When he walked on stage, what was the feeling like?

[Mitch]

Oh, my God, here we go.

[Will Compton]

Were you eyes closed for a lot of it? Just, like, in your. Feels just vibing or like, what are you.

[Mitch]

No, I was. I was. Like. I was. Eyes open.

[Will Compton]

[Taylor Lewan]

[Will Compton]

Crazy that we're here right now.

[Unknown]

Mitch was at a worship service.

[Mitch]

Yeah, I was just there, like, singing every song that I knew the words to.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Mitch]

Damn near everyone. And then he did, like, layups. Did you hit during when he said ginobly? Every time. Every time with the left. But, like, he. It was like, I was telling people it's not like, he's not a concert where it's like, oh, like, you're raging and stuff the entire time. It's more of, like, a chill concert. But he does a really good job at, like, integrating the. The crowd. I maybe said, hey, how are you? 75 times. And then, like, he.

[Will Compton]

Hey, how are you? 75 times. Scored 86 points on layups. Yeah.

[Mitch]

Yeah. And then, like, he, like, goes out into the crowd, and he was honestly, like, from me to you away. I'm like, yo, this is insane, dude.

[Will Compton]

And your hand out. Were you trying to touch him?

[Mitch]

No, I. I. Like, he was too far away to do that, and, like, I was in. I didn't want to be like that guy because I was with, like, all of, like, the other, like, people that were not that, like. I don't know how to describe it.

[Will Compton]

Like, it was like, you've been behind the curtain. So you're not. You're not trying to rip it open, you know?

[Mitch]

Yeah, yeah, I'm. I'm just trying to enjoy it. I'm just trying to sing every song, be like, dude, this is sick.

[Will Compton]

Like, just be in the moment.

[Mitch]

Yeah. Just live in the moment. I maybe I took maybe like, four or five videos, but, like, the rest of it, I'm like, I just want to be here, be present, be in the moment.

[Unknown]

That's how my would want it.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. Right. Live on the mountain.

[Unknown]

Enjoy that mountain.

[George Kittle]

How does the hey, how are you?

[Will Compton]

Work?

[Mitch]

Like, he's like. He's like, guys, this one.

[Will Compton]

This one's for you. Let me get a big hey, how are you?

[Mitch]

And then he just. Everything gets quiet. It's like the entire crowd's like, hey, how are you? And it's like, this is awesome. This is awesome. But, yeah, shout out cam. He, like, designs all their merch. Actually, I have something for Taylor, but he's not here. He designed this guy. And they were, like, damn near everybody was wearing this one. It was super cool just to see all, like, the 77s and everything out there.

[Will Compton]

That's awesome.

[Mitch]

And they called it the polygraph because I guess. I don't know if Taylor failed the polygraph or something, but Taylor took a.

[Will Compton]

Polygraph test whenever the ped thing happened.

[Mitch]

Yeah. So I. He, like, texted me.

[Will Compton]

They called the shirt the polygraph.

[Mitch]

Yeah, this shirt is literally called the polygraph. He texted me and was like. It was either, like, ostarine, which I think is the drug that he failed for, or the polygraph. And I texted Taylor. I was like, are you cool with this? And then he never responded.

[Will Compton]

So he's out in Canada.

[Mitch]

I know, but, like, he's out in the mountains.

[Will Compton]

I know. He was kind of remote, like, off the reservation for, like, four days before he ended up getting back to one of my messages, too.

[Mitch]

Okay. But, yeah, it was. It was awesome. Everybody there, all the dudes look like Mike. They all got the beards, like, the shave sides and everything.

[Will Compton]

And, like, you're just thinking, man, I gotta get right.

[Mitch]

No, I don't. I don't want that. I don't want that. But it was just like a. Literally, like a Steve Heaven. Aaron Rodgers. Like, we walked in, Aaron Rodgers and Mike were, like, on the stage doing, like, their live podcast. Foul got his hat signed by Aaron Rodgers.

[George Kittle]

Have we fixed things with Foul? Are you all good?

[Mitch]

Oh, yeah. Found out. Good.

[Will Compton]

That was a big. Yeah, so we miss. So Mitch was very upset with Foul because Foul said he would help move a friend of theirs. This was on last week's episode. Big moment of the episode. And maga. Maga moment. Yeah. Yeah. And. And Mitch was really upset with Foul. It was like his pet peeve of the week. And was talking about how Foul committed to move. Help moving the friend. And then the day comes and he's a no show, and this whole falling out was kind of happening, and Mitch was talking about how pissed off he was, and he still hadn't talked to Foul. So we made Mitch. We had Mitch FaceTime foul. Foul answers on the podcast. And it's about as Philly as he can get.

[Mitch]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

And they were. You know, there was some friction there.

[Mitch]

We talked about it once I got home, and everything was straight, but Mitch.

[Will Compton]

Got off the bus, was like, yeah, we're gonna talk when we get him. Yeah.

[Mitch]

No, I was. I was hot. I was really pissed.

[Unknown]

I know the listeners and you guys already know this, but for me and Garrett, I guess. Why did he not show up? What was the obligation?

[Will Compton]

He.

[Mitch]

He scheduled an apartment tour which takes 20 minutes, and I was there for four hours helping this. Helping our friend move. And Foul Scott had a. An apartment tour which takes half hour tops, and then just never showed up.

[Unknown]

I had.

[Will Compton]

Didn't he do a couple. Hey, just. Just to defend Foul. Didn't he do a couple tours because he has to look to move?

[Mitch]

He said he did two, and he.

[Will Compton]

Said some stuff popped up and. And Mitch was like, that's like, I know Foul. I live with him. Like, stuff pops up. Means he's just at home watching tv.

[Mitch]

He's just been playing video games.

[Will Compton]

Playing video games.

[Unknown]

About to not live together for the first time.

First time in a decade.

[Mitch]

Yeah, it'll. Because I'm moving because of this.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Mitch]

So we're all good now. It's all good. He files with Steve now.

[Will Compton]

He.

[Mitch]

He's got all of his merch now. Yeah. It just brings everybody together, but. Yeah. Shout out, Cam. Shout out Mike. Shout out Foul. I'm a Steve for life.

[George Kittle]

Only Mike could fix that.

[Mitch]

I think there. I honestly think there was a point where I was just like. Like, just when Rodman came on, I'm like, PCH Drive.

[Will Compton]

And I needed some inspire.

[Unknown]

Did you play that one?

[Mitch]

Hey, he played Peach Shoot. I sent a Snapchat to you guys. I. I sent. I sent the. The lyric of what I thought it was she want to lick on my P Street, but it was. It's obviously not the lyric, but I just thought it was just kind of like our little joke. But yeah, it was, it was awesome.

[Will Compton]

You didn't get to your Snapchat because you guys were living the dream. You guys were out in Greece. Gary, you popped over to Italy. Jack, you spent what, two weeks in Greece.

[Unknown]

Yeah, two weeks.

[Will Compton]

And Gary, you were a week in Greece and then a week in other spots.

[Unknown]

A week in Greece and then like three days in Italy. I had to get back for the fourth, you know, I had to get 10.

[Will Compton]

So you were here for the fourth? Oh, yeah.

[Unknown]

I had to get 10 toes on American soil.

[Will Compton]

I, I, you know, I, yeah, I personally, I couldn't imagine not celebrating America on the fourth of July in America.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Since you have a backyard.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. New hot, new homeowner, everything this country.

[Unknown]

Look, it hurt me. It was my first Fourth of July in my 30 years on Earth that I spent out of the country.

[Will Compton]

Out of the country. Taylor's in Canada.

[Unknown]

Well, I mean, Taylor's Canadian at his core. And I take full responsibility. I like to apologize to all of our veterans, all of our service members, the country, the children, the politicians, the maga community, and. But I know confidently that I will Never spend the 4th of July outside the United States ever again. I did, I tried to do a little retroactive celebration and I hung up my American flag in my backyard, which felt good. It's, it's not gonna get me off the hook at all, but it felt good to, even though, because to me and this, this, this rings true to a lot of people. It's not just me, but the fourth of July, yes, we're going to celebrate America. We're going to celebrate our independence and everything. The people who fought for our country and the reason why. But I don't stop celebrating this country on the 5th of July. I continue to celebrate 365 days a year because I love this country. I will say Greece is beautiful. Greece is beautiful, but man, America just being able to go get on tap, double cheeseburgers, milkshakes, fries at every corner, just diabetes flowing everywhere. And I can say that because that, that's my culture, but man, yeah, Greece was amazing. The people there, the, the culture, the food, they're just so hospitable. It truly was like, it felt like a once in a lifetime trip just being able to experience, like new people and new views and yeah, it's, I can't really speak highly of, of Greece more than I am right now.

[Will Compton]

And the architecture, the architecture. I haven't been to Greece, but just, it'll like, when It's a. It's. It's insane.

[Unknown]

The. I think the special part about being in Greece was we were there for a wedding where we know the bride and the groom. And so there's a ton of our friends there on this island that is so far away from home to where you're like, oh, we're out here. But I wake up every day and I see 30 people I know very closely. And it's. It was a cool moment. Like, I don't know this island.

[Will Compton]

Your guys's photos were all time. That one that you just got the jack, but the one that you just had up Sherm. Yeah, yeah. Of their pool right there, like on the cliff, dude.

[Unknown]

Yeah, that's in Santorini. So we, me and the other guys, after the wedding, we were in the island of Spetstas, where the wedding was. And afterwards everyone kind of went off, did their own thing. Garrett went to Italy, a couple other people went to Italy, Me and two of my buddies. We had zero plan. Only thing we had was our flights booked there and our hotel for the hotel for the wedding week after that, we were just like, we're just gonna try and figure it out. We initially were going to go from Spetstas. You have to take a ferry back to Athens and then a ferry from Athens, wherever. We're gonna go to Mykonos because we're like three single guys. And everyone's like, it's the party island. You should see it. And then some people are like, you shouldn't. It's overrated. And then our ferry, the winds there this time of year are intense. It'll get up and be like 50 mile hour winds consistently, and you won't see one cloud in the sky, but it will be ripping to where like your hat's flying off. You get food, you know, your fries are flying everywhere. But our fair got canceled from ATH to Mykonos. So, yeah, you literally just can't travel on the boat for a fear or, you know, of it.

Safety.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Turning over and you drown, which I would never drown, but that's a different story. But we went to Santorini. The views are beautiful. I mean, there's just every view you think it's going to be like, that's the view of the trip. And then you turn a corner and you're like, wow. Like, God is good and real. So it was cool, man. Just getting to like, Garrett said to experience the trip with like, not only like a few of your close friends, but like 20 of them. And then the island where the wedding was. There's no public cars. The only cars that are on the island are service cars. So there's like five total taxis, and then there's like a couple small trucks that deliver stuff. So everyone's riding mopeds and ATVs everywhere. And so to just like, hop on your moped and just fly around. Yeah, the island's really small. You could drive the whole island on a moped in an hour and a half. So, like, we would just do that and you just hit beach after beach after beach.

[Taylor Lewan]

And.

[Unknown]

Yeah, it's just. You feel super grateful at the end of it.

I still do expect Greece. I mean, obviously there are parts of Greece that look the way they do, Athens specifically. But this island felt super tropical vibes. And they had a big, like, boat port. Like, that was like their thing on the island is like, they're like boat people. And so, yeah, you're riding around, going to all these beaches, and you're like, wait, this is Greece. Like, right. This is Greece. The water's blue as, like, it is. It's beautiful. And then, yeah, we went to Positano, Italy, after in.

You confirmed 30A?

Oh, yeah, it's 30A. It is insane.

[Will Compton]

Will text me when I put him posted, because I'm. I'm thinking they're in Greece the whole time. When I saw him post a photo in Positano, like, Sorrento was right up. Like, we stayed in that area and I'm just like, bro.

[Unknown]

He.

The text was, how sick is 38, bro? It's unreal. It really is. Like. Like, I was telling Will earlier that I felt really, like, present in the moment because I would just be looking around and the views and things you're seeing are like. They seem like they're un. Like, real. Like, it doesn't seem possible. These cliffs are massive.

[Will Compton]

And they're thinking, how are these. Yeah, how are these houses and these structures sit on the side of the.

[Unknown]

Little crevices of these mountains? And like, truly, like, when we were swimming out off the boat, like, I'm like, this is. We're in the sea. Like, this isn't like going to the beach. You're in the ocean. Like, this is. We're in the sea and these cliffs are massive, dude. It makes no sense. It's super hard, like, when you're looking at it to, like, grasp what's going on, it's 10 out of 10. I recommend going because it is. You'll seriously be thinking, like, they got this going and like, yeah, definitely get out to Italy.

[Will Compton]

You get a chance go to Italy. I want to get to Greece just based on your guidance.

[Unknown]

Dude, that island.

Yeah, it's. And it's cool, too. In the oceans, there's, like, very little marine life, especially anything that would, like, if you're nervous about sharks or stingrays or whatever, because the water's so warm year round, like, those kind of animals don't. Aren't attracted to that kind of. That area, and it's cool. So you can just swim openly and really just don't have any kind of worry in the world. I do. I think I can speak for Garrett when I say this. Want to extend a thank you to you guys for allowing us, for the first time, like, since we've worked here, to fully tap out of work and just go do that. It really meant a lot for us to just be able to go and, like, fully be just immersed in a new culture and not have to worry about it and everyone back home because that's such a busy week. It looked like y' all crushed hiding you. So, like, seriously, like, the biggest thanks to everyone here who, like, picked up the slack for us and for you guys to allow us to go do these things, because it truly was, like I said, the trip of a lifetime. And it means the world that we got to go do that. So appreciate that from you guys.

[Will Compton]

Have a little bit of FOMO when you saw that, that Taylor Swift photo drop.

[Unknown]

Oh, so many people. Because again, we're with all of our friends. So many people are like, yo, like, you didn't get to meet Taylor Swift. Meanwhile, we're in the bluest water imaginable on an island, looking at fat yachts. Go by like, yeah, but yeah.

I was really, really fired up for you guys personally. Could not have cared at all, but I was telling one of my buddies.

[Will Compton]

Biggest week, I think maybe ever on social media.

[Unknown]

It had to have been. And I, I, I think I one time on our Instagram while I was there, and I just want to kind of see the what was going. It was like two days after Tighten you and I saw the engagement and I was like, I'm good. I'm, like, deleting the app for now, but I was talking with one of my buddies saying if I was either a female or someone who is a massive Taylor Swift fan. And, like, I've worked here for five years, and the one time I finally leave the country, like, the person who works underneath me gets to meet Taylor Swift. I'm sure there are plenty of people who would have. Have that would have ruined their trip.

Atlantis was a little upset.

Yeah but no, I mean I I was. I was happy for you guys. I was like I'm good.

[Will Compton]

Like you didn't have FOMO seen the pop and doesn't trivia well that I did.

[Unknown]

That I did. I thought we were gonna get to that at some point.

I I did hear I was word on the island that the pop was bigger at the dozen than it was when she came out.

[Will Compton]

I shit you not like I stand on business when I say the pop for dozen trivia. That moment, that moment, that competition that was happening that moment moment that pop was louder than Were you rocked up. Oh buddy, you just flexed your chest. Yeah, it was. Yeah, it was awesome.

[Unknown]

Hell yeah.

It was awesome. It was a good week. You say you see. Did you. Did you happen to listen to us talking to Matt about him taking the photo?

[Unknown]

I did. I. I got, like, the. I think it was just, like, a little clip he made where he's talking about. He's like, yeah, we talked for 30 minutes, and then it was 20, and then it's 10, and then it's 8. It's like, the first thing I said to him, I was like, looks like you're pretty. He sent me a photo just, like, unannounced, just him and Taylor Swift. And I. I was dying laughing about.

It when I saw, like, I muted the group text to try and, like, you know, actually take a break. And the one time I opened it, I see the picture of just Matt and Taylor Swift shift, and I'm like, what the. Like, before. I just remember before leaving, like, kind of giving Matt like, hey, like, you're gonna crush. Like, lock in when it's time to lock in, but have fun. And then that was the photo. I was like, this.

[Will Compton]

We're trying to make him sweat there for a moment, to the point his parents think that we hate him. We do not. We do not hate. He was like, hey, I'm sitting there all, you know, fourth July weekend. My parents are like, hey, does. Does.

[Taylor Lewan]

Will.

[Will Compton]

Does bus and even. Like, you.

[Unknown]

No, it's just the culture.

Before we got on, he was kind of doing the same thing about, like.

[Will Compton]

It'S our mega culture.

[Unknown]

Yeah. The comments about the photo or.

[Will Compton]

Dude, insane, man. I mean, her. Her world, like, her. Her fame is, like, you don't even know how to talk around or, like, talk about it. It's. It's diabolical inside.

[Mitch]

The bus got clipped out by a Swifty page.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

It had, like, thousands of likes on Twitter.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. It was just fascinating.

[Unknown]

New name.

[George Kittle]

It is inside the box.

[Unknown]

She is just, like, one of, like, along with our boy Donald T. Is one of the most polarizing figures on planet Earth. And you can just see it whenever we touch, content with them. It's just. It's a wildfire.

[Will Compton]

Somebody text and asked, like, who's. How do you go up from here with the flex pose? And I was like, Jesus Christ. Next Easter when he rises walking on water.

[Unknown]

I'd like to know, can y'.

All.

Y' all probably talked about a lot just the last few weeks. Can I get, like, a best moment that we've missed? Maybe outside of best MAGA moment. New segment. But, yeah, I'd Love to hear anything outside, obviously Taylor Swift, Matt Malone, foul.

[Will Compton]

But Mike, I mean a lot of good moments. It's definitely one of those weeks to where you're sitting there at the end of the week because when you're in it, you're like, you know, you're, you're, you're grinding through. You're like, hey, what's the next thing we got to do? We did the Titan U concert. We're there all day for tight end. You just like another one of those weeks like you know when you get off, when you get off a banger weekend or a banger week with bus and where you're just like, you just can't believe that.

[Unknown]

Just so much stuff going on. How was tight in you at Vandy? Like the actual run show and was it like a big turnout? Was a lot of younger tight ends.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, there's like 80 plus tight ends tighten you. They crushed it again with everybody. The podcast we did with Greg Olsen, when that drops like that was an all timer. Just talking shop. A lot of good youth football. Yeah, dude, it was, it was cool. They had a huge turnout. They did the little kids camp at the end. They kind of structured it to where it was just one day on the field, not two days on the field. Like it was more about some of the events and things that they were given, like their little gift suite packages. Like tight end. You just crushes it for everybody who comes in.

[Unknown]

Yeah, I probably wives are in FOMO about the. The golf tournament that they did. Did or the golf outing.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, see, we didn't go to the. We didn't go to the golf.

[Unknown]

How was Jeremy Shockey a legend? Were you just like, holy.

[Will Compton]

What you did what you'd expect. Just somebody who's like, you know, he's still kind of there, but his shoulders are kind of sagging because he's just put so many dudes in the dirt. Yeah, just in the dirt. Got a little tick to him. You could just tell he's probably ready to fight at the drop of a hat if you need him to.

[Taylor Lewan]

Hell yeah.

[Will Compton]

That was awesome. Maybe, maybe the best moment seeing Jurassic World Rebirth. Yeah.

[Unknown]

We great, great summer movie. Like you're saying Stephen Chay had a great review on it. Yeah, and I was and I. It paid me to go through that experience and watch. I know Will loves the series so much and it was so much. It was a bad movie watching experience for Will and I think this is only the second time I've seen a movie with Will. I was disappointed for Him. I was disappointed in him, but it's.

[Will Compton]

That's fair.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Because even when it's happening, I thought to myself, I need to get up and move.

[Unknown]

Right?

[Will Compton]

Because I. You know, when somebody's just. I had to be on my phone because we had. So we went and saw the movie. When was that? Wednesday?

[Unknown]

Yeah, Wednesday at noon.

[Will Compton]

So we were kind of off at the shop. I was telling Charl how we had a team meeting. We might be doing a little team building thing. Maybe go see Jurassic park, maybe not. It wasn't, like, fully confirmed in her mind that we were going to watch a movie. I started laughing when I got on. She's like, oh, you want to see it? I was like, yeah, that's what I was doing.

[Unknown]

Oh, my. Hey, that makes it even funnier.

[Will Compton]

We had two little sick kiddos. Rue and Scotty were both sick. Scotty was really congested. We had the snot sucker honor going on at, like, all times. Rue was starting to get a little sick from Scott. Whatever Scotty had. So we had two. Two sick kids on Wednesday. The AC upstairs goes out on Wednesday. I think it's like, Wednesday morning because it was, like, 85 degrees upstairs. But I'm just thinking, all right, we kind of have one of those things where it's got the range, where it's cool down to 69 or heat up to 69, cool down to 72. So I thought whenever we wake up in the morning, we kind of turn it from, like, 68 back up to in that range. So I'm thinking, all right, the heat might have just kicked on, and it's just a little hotter upstairs because the week's been. The last couple weeks have been pretty hot. So it was like 84, 85 upstairs, and it's kind of blowing hot air. And I'm Again, I'm thinking it's just it turning back on. And so we get through the day before I leave because Charl had to work and we didn't have. We didn't have Audrey. So I'm rocking with the kids up until 11 when I drop them off at bar three to go with Charo at childcare. And when I'm leaving, I'm like, man, it's just hot up here, bro. It was, like, up to 87. And I'm just thinking, like, hopefully it, like, turns around. I'm, like, closing the windows. I'm closing the blinds and stuff. And so we go to the movies to see Jurassic World. Well, the AC is identified to be, like, broken. It's not Working correctly. It's blowing hot air. It's 90 degrees upstairs, so the AC is out upstairs. Kids are in turmoil because they're getting over sickness. They're kind of sick. Charles having just a rough time time. And she's essentially texting me a play by play of all this going on, like, a while. I'm watching Jurassic World, so I'm like, having to hit up Rob Robbie, shout out. The boy Robbie, our guy that does our H vac stuff, he's got somebody going over there. I'm texting him, like, hey, somebody's gonna be there within 30 minutes. Rue's screaming about, you know, she wants her. The lemon and honey water that Charles said she was gonna make her and Charles text me. I didn't know we were out of lemons. I use the last lemon because I'm on my right now. So I'm using my lemon water and salt. I use the last lemon in the morning, and I'm just thinking, so just order another lemon. So I'm like, I. I'll get one. I'll get one delivered over to you. I'm ordering lemons. I'm doing the mid movie. Mid movie, bro.

[Unknown]

I'm just seeing the text go. I get distracted.

[Will Compton]

I'm not sitting there trying to, like, break down the entire context because I'm like, oh, he's watching a movie. He's trying to enjoy it. He sees my phone going on. I see my phone going off. I'm hating that I'm having to sit there and text. Well, like, my favorite franchise, top three, top five favorite franchise, the newest movies going on. And it was. It was. It was a tough performance for me.

[Unknown]

And that wasn't even the worst part for him.

[Will Compton]

And Charlie didn't know I was at the. At the movie theater. So I'm like, hey, I'll be home soon. And then I'm like, you know, I'm hydrated. I have to go to the bathroom. This awesome scene in the ocean happens where it seems like it's calming down, and they, like, the boat crashes, and they're, like, crawling on the side. I'm thinking, all right, this could be a moment. They might be catching up on some. Some side conversations, the plot building a little bit. I'll have JP and Mitch break it down for me when I get back. I run to the bathroom. I come back, they're kind of, like, laughing with their head down. They're like, bro, you missed so far, the best kill of the movie. And probably everybody's talking like, it's one of the best. One of the better scenes, like, in that movie, and I missed it because I had to go to the bathroom. So I had to go to the bathroom. I'm texting on my phone. I am watching the movie, but my phone is, like, out. It was.

[Unknown]

Are you gonna go see it again?

[Will Compton]

I want to. I told Charles, hey, I. I want you to see the movie. Like, you'll. You'll. I thought she'll love it. Like, I'll love watching it again.

[Unknown]

I know. First scene was crazy. We don't. I don't want to spoil it, but, like, how the whole movie gets set up.

[Will Compton]

There's a. Yeah. If there's a negative to the movie, we'll just. The hint is yeah. Snickers rapper.

[Unknown]

Yeah. But also the. The kill. Like, as I go back and sit and review the movie in my head, it probably was, like. Like, the least eventful kill. But because of the situation of, like, you being on your phone, then you popping out to go to the bathroom and coming back and missing it, it gave me, like. Like, late night chuckles. When you have a sleepover when you're young and you just, like, can't stop laughing. And I was just like, man, this might be one of the funniest moments in the movie theater of all time.

[Will Compton]

I tell you what, though. We housed that large popcorn before it started. Before the movie. My stomach. Before the movie started. But that. That's every time. That's natural. Like, I know I'm getting a. A large soda. I'm getting the Raisinets. We're getting the popcorn. I don't ever usually go big bucket of popcorn, but we had this little family deal going on up on the menu that we had to get. We couldn't turn our head.

[Unknown]

Do they have a special popcorn bucket for Jurassic World?

They're like, it's refillable.

[Will Compton]

Like, I'm thinking, yeah, we probably ain't gonna refill this, but we could have.

[Unknown]

I should have had you go out when you went to the bathroom.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

On the topic of dinosaurs, I did hear that the company that brought back the direwolf is working on bringing back a dinosaur. I can't think of which one, but that's their next project. I think Tom Brady invested.

[Will Compton]

Oh, there's enough. I mean, the movies are out there. The movies are out there. It's a mistake to create dinosaurs.

[Unknown]

They're already created.

[Will Compton]

JP Got to learn about the. The depth. And I have on these dinosaurs.

[Unknown]

Raptors come on the screen for the first time. Hey, there go the raptors. Oh, you know, he goes, oh, the raptors. And he said, raptors in JP Fashion.

[Will Compton]

He's like, you're. You're one boy that. Your boy that only knows one dinosaur in the entire movie.

[Unknown]

The Raptors, bro. You see the raptors?

[Will Compton]

Any dinosaur that. Come on. I'm like, trying to remember. I'm like, hey, that's a. What was that one? I'm like, hey, that's a dilophosaurus right there. Just, you know, just to let you.

[Unknown]

Know, they have been playing all the Jurassic Parks on tv, so you can tell it's.

[Will Compton]

I enjoyed the movie. If you like, dress.

[Unknown]

Yeah, it's good.

[Will Compton]

If you like the franchise, you'll enjoy this movie.

[Unknown]

They said Scarlett Johansson became the highest grossing actress in, like, movie history. Passing Samuel L. Jackson or something. They just been a part of the most crazy Marvel.

[Will Compton]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[George Kittle]

That makes sense.

[Will Compton]

It was fun. That was a good time. Nobody was in the theater.

[Unknown]

Yeah, there was one solo. There was one solo old dude that was in the row ahead of us. I'm like, man, I can only pray to God that that's me in 40.

[Will Compton]

Years enjoying a movie.

[Unknown]

Yeah, I felt for him because he had to go to the bathroom and he. He was walking so slow, and I'm just. I'm like, bro, he's about to miss so much shoulder. I'm like, he's about to miss so much and nobody is there to recap it for him.

[Taylor Lewan]

Him.

[Unknown]

I should have went down.

[Will Compton]

No spoilers, but thoughts on the D Rex?

[Taylor Lewan]

Stupid.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, I thought the D Rex was a little od.

[Taylor Lewan]

Sounds dumb.

[Will Compton]

OD Rex looked like a animal that should be in, like, hills have eyes or something like that. I thought they tried to. They tried too hard with making this thing. Yeah, it did. It looked like an alien. Looked like an alien.

[Taylor Lewan]

That's tough.

[Will Compton]

She's made 15 points.

[George Kittle]

Point four. Her movies have made $15.4 billion.

[Will Compton]

That'll be a dozen question next year I'd be ready to go 15.4 billion ponies. You guys see? Hey, some Fourth of July news. Can't talk about Fourth of July and not talk about Joey Chestnut. Yeah, just doing it again. I mean, the. The gap is so big. It's.

[Unknown]

Did y' all see the question of if. If they had to eat a hot dog and run 100 meters, who would win? Joey Chestnut or Usain Bolt?

[Will Compton]

Yeah, I like that question. I think it's still Usain, right?

[Unknown]

I don't know. I think it's Chestnut because I think somebody was saying he can eat A hot dog in one and a half seconds.

[Will Compton]

But so if you're going by the rules of the. The hot dog competition, when he's throwing them in there in the last seconds, it counts if it's like, in his mouth. Fully in his mouth.

[Mitch]

Mouth.

[Will Compton]

So I'm thinking if you sink and just get the hot dog in his mouth and he can start running like he's. He. He could. That's where he'd beat him.

[Unknown]

Then he would just need to finish.

[Will Compton]

It, like, to completion. They gotta swallow it. That's where Joey would. Yeah, they gotta swallow the dog.

[Taylor Lewan]

Right?

[Will Compton]

They gotta swallow the meat. That's where Joey would have him. But I think if it's. If you just get it in your mouth, I think usain still takes it.

[Unknown]

Yeah, I agree with that about it. Yeah, we need more rules.

[Taylor Lewan]

Need more rules.

[Unknown]

We just need that to happen.

I wonder why. Like, because Joey Chestnut, going into it, probably knew he wasn't going to break the world record. I'm like, if it's me, I'm going to. Just going to break my opponent and stay on pace with him and just be looking at him the whole time. And then once we get to, like, 40, start going double. Just like.

[Will Compton]

Okay, Just taunt him the whole time. Yeah, because it's like, how else do you have fun with that if you're Joey Chestnut? So much better than everybody. Like, I saw 70 and a half. Does he have, like, a streak of, like, in the 70s going? So his number's always trying to get at least 70.

[Mitch]

He's gotten, like, 78 before.

[Unknown]

Yeah, that's the world record, right?

[Will Compton]

That's the record. But I want to say he's got, like, maybe consecutive. When he returns where he's had over 70.

[Unknown]

Did they put, like, his jersey in the rafters? Do they just put, like, a massive dog?

[Will Compton]

I think they just got to call it the. The Chestnut. Like, when they have a trophy, they just call it the chest.

[Unknown]

Gotta make, like, a hot dog brand.

[Will Compton]

He has.

[Unknown]

He.

[Will Compton]

He's got. He's gotta have.

[Unknown]

Probably has sauce because, remember, he was on the vegan stuff last year, so he didn't compete. Ruin his legacy for a paycheck, bro.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, that was a moment that was a little shaky for him.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Now look at.

[Will Compton]

Hey, MAGA community did not like that.

[Unknown]

MAGA. MAGA moment.

[Will Compton]

Fourth of July, rumors of UFC celebrating 250 years of America at the White House on the lawn. How sick would that be?

[Unknown]

It would be sick. But also, who's gonna be there?

[Will Compton]

Because us.

[Unknown]

Us. But I'm saying if you're the fighter and you just have, like, 50 politicians, like, Ted Cruz is just ringside, like, there'd be no juice.

[Will Compton]

No juice. It would be like the movie. What is it with. With the Channing Tatum and he's fighting all the.

[Unknown]

It's a fight club or not fight club or something?

[Will Compton]

No, no, no, no.

[Unknown]

It's a fighting movie.

[Will Compton]

Movie.

[Mitch]

Oh, oh, it's like the wrestler movie, right?

[Unknown]

No, no, it's. He's true. Yeah, I know exactly what you're talking about. I think it's called, like, fighting or like. Okay, yeah, yeah. Chaining Tatum. Fighting movie.

Step up.

[Will Compton]

But it would be an environment like that, right? You have just. Have all the. Just the richest. You got politicians scenes. Fighting, fighting. Yeah, yeah.

[Unknown]

Great movie.

[Will Compton]

Great movie.

[Taylor Lewan]

Terrence.

[Unknown]

I love Terrence Howard.

[Will Compton]

That buddy's solving the world right now.

[Unknown]

Being solved.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, being solved. He. He's seen it already.

[Unknown]

There's a rain.

[Will Compton]

Oh, it's starting to rain. Apologies if you hear that. Yeah. Brought the rain back.

[Unknown]

We officially have more rain than Seattle so far this year.

[Taylor Lewan]

Just.

[Will Compton]

What's your JP what is your dream fight card? Card?

[Unknown]

Dream card would be Jon Jones versus Aspinall.

[Will Compton]

Yes.

[Unknown]

Which is u. S. Versus Britain.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Then it would be McGregor. Chandler.

[Will Compton]

Yes.

[Unknown]

McGregor will be one year into presidency in Ireland.

[Taylor Lewan]

One more.

[Will Compton]

There's one more.

[Unknown]

Pereira versus somebody.

[Taylor Lewan]

Oh, God.

[Will Compton]

Ilya versus Islam. Yeah.

[Unknown]

Ilya versus Islam.

[Will Compton]

If Islam wins the welterweight belt. We were talking about this on the phone.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

About, you know, people vacating the belt. Vacating the lightweight to go up to welterweight. Ilya vacate in the. Not. Not. Was it featherweight to go up to lightweight? Yeah, featherweight to go. Or is it bantamweight?

[Unknown]

No, Banham's featherweight.

[Will Compton]

Okay. Yeah. But Islam wins the welterweight belt. You could have the super fight of.

[Unknown]

All super fights for sure.

[Will Compton]

Islam versus Ilia. McGregor versus Chandler. Aspinall versus Jones on the lawn of the White house. I know. 250 years.

[Unknown]

Hey, or. Or you just do a full US versus Russia card and Trump and Putin are sitting on opposite sides. Winner gets, like, whatever deal they'd like. Do a trade deal.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, that would be.

[Unknown]

No, I think we'll win because.

Who are we putting out there?

Jon Jones, Michael Chandler? Now we. We got guys to win because. Yeah, we have to fight Marab again.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. I don't know if we can have. I don't know if we can risk that. A matchup against Morab.

[Unknown]

It would be pretty even. Honestly, I think that would be intense.

[Will Compton]

The world would be so involved with.

[Unknown]

That it would theirs I would be training so hard. I mean we would too obviously, because.

We would just send our guys to Russia to train.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

But yeah, that is the card. The triple champion. Well, I guess Mike's gonna be a championship fight.

[Will Compton]

But because the.

[Unknown]

For this.

Who.

[Will Compton]

Who are the. Who are the women again, where it's legacy verse.

[Unknown]

We get.

Oh, Kayla Harrison versus Nunes.

[Will Compton]

That'll probably happen before then though.

[Unknown]

Yeah. Yeah, probably.

[Will Compton]

Because timelines. You see McGregor having the interest with the whole White House.

[Unknown]

That's the only thing that brings McGregor back.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, it'll be interesting. You know, if he does get in the octagon again, it'll be.

[Unknown]

And if he does run for president in Ireland.

[Will Compton]

I see. You see, you know on. On X where something like that'll happen. McGregor will post it and somebody will ask Grok like how you know, where is he at in the running. And Grog just talks about he's only got like 7% of this. But that's how highly unlikely.

[Unknown]

That's how it starts with those the people outside of politics.

[Will Compton]

We do have it is drop week for college football. 26 I know Mitch before we started the show he has he had hopes like we always do. Like let's start a dynasty. We've heard Dale Earnhardt Jr. Talk about his dynasty. Let's get a dynasty going with the boys of the bus. I love like internally I love the idea. Just knowing us it's like it's never gonna get done. However, I am fired up to play the new CFB 26. I want to say the Huskers are are we 25. Like we're we're top 20 in offense.

[Mitch]

I think you guys are going to be a pretty good squat like a for a video game squad.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Mitch]

You guys are going to be a.

[Will Compton]

Good a good tier. It just in the game like not the best teams on the game. Yeah.

[Mitch]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

A good squad to pick up and compete with.

[Mitch]

Like if you and Taylor were to start playing again and like did the Nebraska versus Michigan like that would like Michigan was broken in the last game with all of like Mason Graham and all those guys that they had like.

[Will Compton]

Still took care of them though.

[Mitch]

Yeah. I think it would be even more lopsided with with Nebraska.

[Will Compton]

Mitch wants to play just so he can be the national championship. National champion every season for sure.

[Mitch]

I said I said I'm going to take Delaware there to to the to promise to the promised land.

[Will Compton]

I mean that could be fun.

[Mitch]

I I've been to like their stadium a couple times because my cousin went there and it's like a cool their vibe that they have going on is super cool. The Blue Hand the Blue Hand Delaware Blue Hens Pride of Joe Flacco A.

[Will Compton]

Team to play with on college football. 26 South Carolina broken We just have.

[Unknown]

The ultimate video game players that the game makers love to see. I've just sick we have on offense. The minute a game maker sees a 6, 4, 220 guy that's fast.

[Taylor Lewan]

It's like 99 speed.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Let's have fun with this.

[Unknown]

Let's have fun with it.

[Mitch]

Evan Stewart or Dylan Stewart?

[Unknown]

Dylan Stewart.

[Mitch]

He's. He's gonna be like, broken in the game. Yeah, Tackle him. Lenora Sellers is like you said, the Michael Vic of.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, that's like, that's the team to play with.

[Unknown]

It is the team. It's like the fun team.

[Will Compton]

I mean, you saw the clip with Kirk Bankert Sellers just scrambling around, ends up scoring. But you got a quarterback who can run, who's mobile. You don't have to understand all the passing game that goes on. So you can take off and run. And then on defense, if you're not like a great user player, usually you default to playing with the defensive lineman. Right. The rush with Dylan Stewart, like your team, your game is like, taken care of.

[Unknown]

It's so fun. And I. It made me feel good because it's obviously the video game hype, like South Carolina. So much of our attention will is like coming from this type of thing on a national scale where they're like, man, these guys are sick. Well, like, let me actually watch South Carolina. So you're like, man, people are tuning in more than they have before. Still not, you know, like at the top, top level. But you're like, man, we just. We need you guys to deliver this football season. I know they will. It made me feel good when at the Manning passing academy, the Mannings gave their top three quarterbacks and it was Nussmeier, Arch, and Sellers. They gave Sellers the third.

[Will Compton]

If you're in on the Gamecocks now, like, it can be a very. It can be an awesome year. Year.

[Unknown]

Yeah. Could be an awesome year. We have a lot of futures bets out there with FanDuel. This could be the greatest. Yeah. Futures video. Sherman. I recorded earlier a message to myself on the day of the SEC championship.

[Mitch]

I just think I'm going back to the video game. Like, I'm so happy that, like, this game is back because we were without it for 10 years. And I remember, like, as a kid, like, just so excited for the drop day because, like, you. You're excited to see like the new graphics packages and like the new ways that the players can move and stuff. And like, the fact that college football video games are back is so awesome. And I also saw something they might be bringing back at college basketball video games.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Mitch]

Which is.

[Unknown]

I could shoot in that park all day.

[Mitch]

Yes. So. And I remember like, like the basketball game, like 08 or with like Kevin Love or Kevin Durant on it.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Mitch]

Like, like college football games or college video games are back and I'm so excited for it.

[Will Compton]

You just know who the players were too. Like you'd have to, you know, you get their number and everything else.

[Mitch]

Like shooting guard, 42 or.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Mitch]

Running back quarterback, 15 for Ray or something.

[Unknown]

A highlight up on X of Reggie Bush in the video game. And he's moving.

[Mitch]

Dude, we gotta get, we gotta get.

[Taylor Lewan]

You two in the game.

[Mitch]

We were, we were talking earlier, bro.

[Will Compton]

I know.

[Mitch]

I was saying in like an ultimate.

[Unknown]

This is a great idea.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Mitch]

An ultimate team. They kind of have like moments and stuff for you to like be, be this player. Do this moment as you. Once you finish this moment, you get that player's card. I was saying for you that. What is it? Capital One Bowler.

[Will Compton]

Capital One, Capital One. We don't talk about it enough or a lot.

[Mitch]

I don't know what you could do for Taylor. I mean kind of just an offensive lineman, but it would be sick that.

[Unknown]

Just have score a touchdown maybe. I know it's from the pros, but.

[Will Compton]

But get the Willie C card by getting a pick six against Georgia. They.

[Unknown]

They did just put out a new video game cover. I don't know if you saw it. We just posted the new cover on X.

[Will Compton]

We.

[George Kittle]

We also have some breaking news. I'll get that pulled up. And we, we are friends with EA Sports. This is nothing against EA Sports, but I feel like in the new update. Oh, with the intro for Nebraska, there is not a Will Compton hype video going on on the Jumbotron before kickoff that has been released officially. It's not included in the game.

[Unknown]

That sucks.

[Will Compton]

So that it's breaking news that it's not in the game.

[George Kittle]

It's breaking news that's not in the game. People are already commenting on the video saying, where's the Will Compton? Hi video.

[Unknown]

Yo, is Gorilla in the game?

[George Kittle]

Even if there's no audio, just him with the.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, you just see something on the, on the Jumbotron on. When it's like that would be all time. When you're like, come on EA Sports. We love you EA Sports. So many great updates with this game. I heard in. In Road to Glory now you can play Road to Glory and get your player all the way to where you can export it in Madden.

[Mitch]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Because people love the Road to Glory stuff.

[Mitch]

And then you can like import it into like Madden. Be in like the superstar mode of Madden.

[Will Compton]

Right.

[Mitch]

But like you now in Road to Glory you start in high school. Whereas in last year's game you just kind of started as a freshman.

[Unknown]

It used to be that way. Right?

[Mitch]

It used to be that way.

[Will Compton]

That way where you play like you'd play a few games in high school.

[Unknown]

And you get recruited so far you'd.

[Mitch]

Raise like your star rank.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Mitch]

Which like that's what made that old game fun because like, all right, I gotta be the best I can so I can be a five star.

[Will Compton]

So that's your little dorm room.

[Mitch]

Yep. So I'm stoked for this game to come out. I've been. I was looked at like my stats like the EA station, like the 25 game. I think I played like nine days worth of just that game itself.

[George Kittle]

So why can't we get Mitch in the game?

[Will Compton]

If they were able to get a.

[Mitch]

D3 Susquehanna Football Player 2019 team legend.

[Unknown]

Like an ultimate team that would be on.

[Mitch]

I remember I'd like In college football 14 I went through on the computer and made Susquehanna. Yeah. I have my team on my Xbox 360.

[George Kittle]

But like what's your moment? What's your Mitch Carley card unlocked moment?

[Mitch]

It would probably be. Yeah, gotta be getting the game. The. My third touchdown of the game. Game moon a touchdown in overtime against Dickinson.

[Will Compton]

So you have to go into OT to unlock Mitch Carley.

[Mitch]

You would probably start in OT and then like you just have to score a touchdown with me. No, it was a. It was a comeback route. Guy was on my back, caught it. Get off me. And then my boy, my boy Goody had like a crackback block and just went in and I just went ballistic.

[Unknown]

They got, they got to let you do nil purchases in the new game.

That would be start back.

You should be able to buy stuff.

[Will Compton]

So you're. I hate bringing. I hate bringing up. I hate bringing up this brand when we're talking about EA. But it's like when 2K would have their created player and you would have like a. Like a house.

[Unknown]

Yeah, yeah, exactly.

[Mitch]

Like buy like a car to drive. Drive around like your town.

[Unknown]

Rather than like the skateboard purchases could unlock players.

[Will Compton]

Where were you going with this?

[Unknown]

That's a jacking. When you look back here, we were laughing.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Jack said. Jack was like. But you buy veneers, you unlock Will Compton.

[Will Compton]

But.

[Unknown]

But historically accurate, it would make sense because that'd have to be in Madden.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, yeah.

[Unknown]

But if it's in Il Air though. Good question. If you had the nil money flowing in like they do today, would you have gotten veneers in college?

[Will Compton]

Yes.

[Taylor Lewan]

Let's go.

[Unknown]

He would have been a problem.

On O Street tearing it down, bro.

[Will Compton]

It's. You know, Charro, she'll bring. Have these old photos where it's like, my neck is thick, my face is bigger and stuff, and it just. I look crazy, man. Man, I look crazy with them little chiclets in my mouth. Fun fact, though. I wasn't 89 impact player on college football. Oh, you had. Yeah. That's sick. Yeah, I was. I. I was fired up, but it was ea. Let's get. Let's get a little.

[Unknown]

Little.

[Will Compton]

Little pregame feature where you see, you got Memorial Stadium and you just got on the Jumbotron, just. Oh, Willie C. With his face painted again. Doesn't have to be audio.

[Taylor Lewan]

Just there.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, just there.

[Mitch]

Just the visual of it.

[Will Compton]

Because they have the tunnel walk all wrong now. They have the old school tunnel walk where you're jumping up and hitting the horseshoe. They don't have, like, the new. The new stadium or not new stadium, but the new locker room. How it walks to the stadium, I believe this year. I think that's. Maybe I saw an old video.

[Unknown]

Isn't Terence Crawford in it?

I don't know.

Or maybe I.

[Will Compton]

Maybe that would be hype. I mean, he did during the Colorado game, and he had the belt and everything with him. Yeah, I thought that.

[Unknown]

I thought I saw that in the game name because I saw they need Skrilla Dylan Raiola looking. Exactly.

[Will Compton]

Oh, is this it?

[George Kittle]

Yeah, that's it.

[Will Compton]

Okay, then that does look correct.

[Mitch]

I can't show it.

[Will Compton]

Oh, you're not able to show it. Yeah, we don't want to get copyrighted. Don't want to get copyrighted. We do have codes. We'll have some codes to send out. So stay connected with us on our social media channels at BUS and wtb. We will have codes to give out for the new EA. CFB 26.

[Mitch]

Maybe if we don't do a connected dynasty, maybe we have, like, a bus and one, like a fan one. I'll be in it. I can moderate it or whatever. And then, like, they could, like, the winners. I'm gonna win the national championship. But, like, whoever comes in second could, like, just get merch or something. Like just a cool little way to, like, get the fans involved and stuff.

[Will Compton]

You need to stream, and you just want a dummy. You want to dummy some folks in college football.

[Mitch]

I'm.

[Will Compton]

I. I think we need to get you connected. And you play Kurt.

[Unknown]

He needs to stream.

[Will Compton]

You play against Kurt.

[Mitch]

But so the thing is with. Kurt knows no, no, I know, but, like, what?

[Will Compton]

What?

[Mitch]

No, like, Kurt obviously understands football and he knows, like, if you motion a guy over, put him here and run this route, it's like, you can't beat that. So, like. But that also comes with knowing more football. Like, I'll just. I ask coach every time. I'm just picking a play and I run probably like 20 plays and, like, I'm not motioning anybody changing routes unless it's like. Like, I just want this guy to do a little something here for like a first down. But, like, Kurt, like, knows how to really exploit everything. But I would love to play Kurt because then I would learn it from the best. So shout out you Kirk for being the best. But I watch all your videos. But that would be awesome. I would be a boring G. Said I should stream. I would be a boring ass streamer.

[Will Compton]

We nominate Mitch to go against Kurt just to see how it unfolds.

[Mitch]

If he. If he were to come in the shop and do stuff like that, that would be.

[Will Compton]

Be.

[Mitch]

I would. I'll be all about it.

[Will Compton]

That would be fun. Yeah. Sherm has on the board. What are you wearing? I am wearing our new. What are these called? Hawaiian jumpsuits.

[Unknown]

It's like a Hawaiian set.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, a little Hawaiian set. You got your swimming trunks on. You got your. Your top. You can get [e-mail] shop t drop. Shop till you drop. What else in the college football world. Oh. Oh, you see. You see the video? Josh bait. Yeah. The massive risk. He's like, I'm willing to put everything on the line for Nebraska to be better than 6 and 6. I'm just thinking, like, that's not that you're not putting much on the line.

[Unknown]

And then he put it on you. He said, it's up to Will Compton and Matt Rule not to mess this up.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. Most, most important three seconds of my life. He's right. I mean, he's not wrong. But to me, there's just. There's not. There's not a world to where, like, being better than 6 and 6 is not even debatable in my humble opinion, because I was texting with them and he was like, what did he say? Let's see here.

[George Kittle]

But I think to have the commissioner having you over six and six, that's.

[Will Compton]

That's big. That's awesome. Do what?

[George Kittle]

I'm just saying, like, the fan favorite commissioner of college football is saying your team is going to do better than 6 and 6. I don't see the issue.

[Will Compton]

I don't Know, well, I don't see an issue with that. It's just I'm willing to bet, like, I'm willing to my wallet everything that they'll be better in six and six. I'm like, that is not that risky. Because he texted me, he said, they never notice when you toss love out. Shame. I said, better than six and six is love to you, Joshua. He said, that could mean 12, 0. I said, it could also mean 7 and 5. He said, how much, how much bigger a stand can I possibly take? I said, eight plus are my foxhole guys. Those are the guys buying stock. Those are the guys that understand what's going on in the kitchen of Nebraska football. Are they, Willie C. 10 plus win level optimism, batting for a cause, for a playoff spot. No. Very few are, very few have that kind of courage. But the ones seeing the field, seeing the field with eight plus are the ones I'm ready to go to war with. He responded, I can do eight By August, I could see myself flirting with the nines.

[Unknown]

Mission accomplished.

[Will Compton]

I think he knows and I think my, my push to him is he is like one of the biggest voices in college football. If he's pushing that wagon and Nebraska's hot and when we do win those amount of games, games, he's the guy that saw it before everybody else could see it. That's what I'm trying to tell folks out there.

[George Kittle]

Confirm Gamecock.

[Unknown]

Yeah, confirm Gamecock. A lot of the media personalities high on them.

[Will Compton]

A lot of the media personalities are high on the Gamecocks. Yeah. So how does that make you feel? I like when it's like a few, it's like they're still right. People don't see, people don't understand, like, what's actually going on at the university. So it's like, hey, buy stock now. Now you're still always welcome on the, on the bandwagon when it happens, but you're going to feel so much better that you knew it before it was happening, right?

[Unknown]

Yeah, it's. I mean, if you see, if you would have just looked at last year with that like they should have been saying it last year, no one sellers would be back.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

If in college football, if you have a quarterback, it could, like a lot of good, A lot of special things can happen.

[Will Compton]

You have, you have a quarterback, you have top five, top ten pick.

[Unknown]

I gotta check on our linebackers. That's how I gotta check on.

[Will Compton]

But knowing you, knowing you have, knowing you have guys like that, knowing you have genetics like that on your team, it Feels like a big, like, not make or break year, but a year. If you're a Gamecock fan, like, you have to be so excited. But there's also a lot of fear with that because it's like, these are a couple generational type players that we have, and hopefully see the results show with these players because who knows if we'll get these cats again.

[Unknown]

Yeah, it's almost.

It's a tone setter for like, this year and moving forward.

[Will Compton]

Exactly. Yeah. Because these guys are obviously going to come. If you got hats like that on the squad and you don't. You don't produce with it, like, that'll obviously, you know, to deter cats from being like, oh, you do got to go to those bigger schools.

[Unknown]

The biggest thing I think for them is these guys are generational talent.

[Taylor Lewan]

What.

[Unknown]

What they're gonna help do in recruiting, and then if they do end up staying again, is when I think you see the, like, the work paid off.

[Will Compton]

Right. Right. I'm excited. God, it's good. Mitch, are you working? I saw. I saw from Taylor because he was like, some about 50 days away. College football can't get here soon enough. And it was like our old video from.

[Unknown]

Which was crazy how he came across.

[Will Compton]

That and found that, because that was like, back in 2023.

[Mitch]

That was 23.

[Will Compton]

That was back in 23. When we kind of did our fall tour announcement. The places we're going to. Are you working on a hype video for this year?

[Mitch]

I can for sure get you in there.

[Will Compton]

We need to get you in the kitchen on that.

[Mitch]

Do we want to?

[Will Compton]

Because those are juicy.

[Unknown]

We gotta figure out the games.

[Mitch]

Yeah, I was gonna say, do we want to figure out the games? Because that's. That's kind of how I made it.

[Will Compton]

Nebraska ones in there.

[Mitch]

I mean, I can.

[Will Compton]

September, Nebraska, late August, Nebraska, early September, Nebraska, the whole month.

[Mitch]

Even if I were to just make it, those all always play because, like, those college football videos, oh, my God.

[Will Compton]

They are so juicy.

[Mitch]

They goosebumps every time. It's the biggest thing. You just got to pick the right song.

[Will Compton]

And we're getting so close. Fall camp starts at the end of this month. Training camp starts at the end of this month. The headlines are going to be flying. The debates, the arguing. What are you pointing at?

[George Kittle]

Vandals.

[Will Compton]

Got you.

[George Kittle]

Nebraska at plus 350 for 10 plus wins on the season.

[Will Compton]

Dang.

[George Kittle]

That ain't bad.

[Unknown]

They're confident in y'.

[Taylor Lewan]

All.

[Mitch]

South Carolina, they're over under seven and a half.

[Will Compton]

They know I'm going To push it too, they said.

[Unknown]

What can we put up there to.

[Will Compton]

Get Will to bite on this Vandal sportsbook? If you go right now to the futures win totals, Nebraska to get 10 plus wins this season is sitting at plus 350.

[Unknown]

What's nine wins?

[Will Compton]

There are no guarantees in life, however.

[Mitch]

Can't say that.

[Unknown]

I guarantee you I'll be taking that.

[Will Compton]

I can't say, however.

[Mitch]

No, you can. You can't say. This is a guarantee if you.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, no, this is. There are no guarantees. This is not a guarantee. I'm just letting you know the stuff that I'm hearing. The stuff that I'm hearing.

[George Kittle]

Plus 150. Plus nine wins.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, if you don't want to go all the way to 10 +. There are nine + wins sitting at +150 on this FanDuel app right now. I'm just. I'm just saying.

[Unknown]

You saw what Cam Ward said about Yalls recruit that's committed to Nebraska.

[Will Compton]

No, he. Oh, yeah, yeah. Well, he was.

[Unknown]

He was throwing with him.

[Will Compton]

Throwing with him.

[Unknown]

I want to play with this guy one day.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

Oh, was. I didn't know that guy was a Carolina recruit.

Nebraska recruit probably will be a Carolina guy.

[Will Compton]

I know. It's like anytime videos like that are coming out and they're just committed, they're not at the school. I'm just always nervous. I'm like, oh, oh, yeah.

[Mitch]

The. The line is already out for South Carolina, Clemson. At the end of the year, somehow Clemson is plus four. Or South Carolina is plus four and.

[Will Compton]

A half against Clemson.

[Unknown]

Yeah, at home too.

[Taylor Lewan]

Come on.

[Unknown]

They're high on Clemson this year.

Every. They're high on Clemson every year, bro. They like their schedule and they love.

Clubnick is good.

Yeah, he's good in the acc.

[George Kittle]

Yeah, yeah, he is.

[Taylor Lewan]

Come on.

[Unknown]

Good in the acc. We dummied him last year. Thank you for that interception in the red zone, Cade.

[Will Compton]

How about Notre Dame getting all the. Getting all the legends of the NFL, all their sons are going to Notre Dame. Shout out. Marcus Freeman. Dude seems like a hell of a recruiter. I feel like Notre Dame is like getting back to. For sure, just being Notre Dame like they were. They had their stint even in like the 2010s and everything like that to where they go to the College football Playoff. But they kind of get blown out, right? They get blown. Yeah. They go against Bama. We've heard all those stories, but it feels like now Notre Dame's getting back to where they are becoming like one of the prominent teams. Like One of those blue bloods, which is back to their blue blood status. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Happy for Shane too. Yeah, happy for Shane.

[Taylor Lewan]

I think I watched tires for the third time already.

[Unknown]

Yeah, I'm interested to see Plexco Burris's son.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, yeah, cuz you got.

[Unknown]

He's got to be a free.

[Will Compton]

Jerome Bettis, Thomas Davis, Larry Fitzgerald, Plexco Buris.

[Mitch]

J. Michael Finley.

[Will Compton]

J. Michael Finley. And who's the other one? Bryant Young.

[Unknown]

Bryant Young.

[Will Compton]

All their sons are going another day game, which I think is cool. You know, those dads are just. They're fired up to just be at Notre Dame. Yeah, yeah.

[Unknown]

I feel like. I mean, nowadays I feel like we're seeing way more like family.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Families make it in both NFL and NBA.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, it's gonna be fun, man. Yes. You guys see the. We'll hit. We'll hit this and then we'll get into the Brock Purdy interview. Did you guys see the Cam Newton, Jalen hurts debate going on?

[Unknown]

I did. Who do you have?

[Will Compton]

I think it's Cam Newton.

[Mitch]

Gotta be. Has to be.

[Will Compton]

I mean, Cam Newton, it's like they're both. They're both great. Jalen hurts, great player. But Cam Newton is somebody that you had to game plan for. Like when you're playing the Carolina Panthers, it's, hey, this team runs through Cam Newton. Newton. It runs through the one. It won't. It runs through jersey number one. And so you would have to do everything around Cam Newton. Jalen Hurts, hell of a player, has stats. His stats will probably be comparable because where he's at now compared to where Cam Newton was, seems like there's. They're on track. He's got a few more rushing touchdowns. It's like, okay, yeah, five guys push you into the end zone, but his stats are there to where it is. It could be like a debate or an argument, so to speak speak. But bro, you're not game planning. Jalen hurts the same way that you would game plan Cam Newton. Like on the Eagles, you got Saquon Barkley. They've been known for their line of scrimmage for like the last decade. It feels like they got A.J. brown, Devonte Smith, they got all these weapons. Now Carolina had great players on their team too, but I'm telling you, the entire pulse, the entire game plan was around Cam Newton.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. Who's.

[Mitch]

Who was Carolina's best receiver that came played with?

[Will Compton]

Steve Smith? I mean, Steve Smith was a dog. Greg Olson was a dog.

[Unknown]

He was older, though. I feel like.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, yeah.

[Unknown]

And Ted, Gin. But, bro, there's a horrible highlight tape out there. They're like, y' all want to have this argument? Look who Cam Newton was throwing to. And Ted G. Dropped, like, six wide open touchdowns in games that. Some were losses as well that were like, less than a score.

[Will Compton]

And I'm just saying that Cam had a lot of good players, a lot of good talent around.

[Unknown]

They had good defense.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. I mean, Luke Keakley, you had Shaq. Yeah. Thomas Davis, Shaq Thompson, their line of scrimmage with Star. And yeah, Peppers, Julius Peppers. Like, they had some. Josh Norman, they had some dogs. So, you know when you say, like, Cam Newton didn't have as much to work with him, Jalen Hurts, the argument will be, oh, he had great players. He had great. He had great teammates, too. That is true. Like, Greg Olson was a beast. Steve Smith was a beast. Ted Ginn, yeah, that. He was a beast. All those players were good players. But it's not like when you're sitting in. When you're sitting in game planning against the Eagles, like, they're. You have to think about all of these other cats before you think about Jalen Hurts. He is a weapon in the run game. He can throw the ball well. He's got a good passer rating. He gets the ball into the hands of AJ Fucking Brown. You got Saquon Barkley. And you're talking about the line of scrimmage. Not in the same breath that you are when you're playing against the Carolina Panthers, because it's like everything runs through Cam Newton.

[George Kittle]

Two, two played.

[Will Compton]

So I think it's. I think it's Cam Newton. People want to talk about leadership and showing up. Yeah, like, Jalen Hurts. Phenomenal leader. Great on the mic anytime he gets in the press conference. He's. He's an awesome player. It seems like an awesome guy. But the stuff you hear about Cam Newton with his competitive nature and just watching this specimen on the field, like, you'd be out there pregame warping, you'd see this dude, and it's like, that is a action figure. And he was deadly ever because he, like, he's. They scheme runs for like he was. He was so good to play.

[George Kittle]

To play devil. The Chiefs thought the same thing about Jalen Hurts and said, just make him pass. That's all we got to do is make him pass. And then we saw what happened.

[Will Compton]

But it's not make him pass like, Cam Newton had to do. An incredible runner. We have to stop him on the ground and make him throw like that's. More like Lamar Jackson. You're not necessarily going to stop him, but you're going to try to do as much as you can to win on first and second down so that Lamar is throwing the ball. And again, I'm not saying Lamar can't throw the football. That's just how you're trying to game plan against him. It's a. Like, make him throw it to beat us. Like, yeah, you might have that same sentiment against Jalen, but it's not because he's the most unbelievably dangerous runner. Cam Newton was Lamar Jackson. He is.

[Unknown]

He was.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. Like, Jalen can run the ball. He can run the ball. Well, they have all their RPOs, they have their quarterback run game and everything else. He's a good runner, but he's not. He's not Cam Newton.

[Unknown]

It's a. I feel like it's a. It's almost like an unfair argument.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, but it's, it's, you know, it's one of those debates for sure, but like, yeah, fun with. Because it's like they're both great quarterbacks. Like Jalen, he's a stud. I like him as a player. I like him every time. Again, anytime he's. He's doing a press conference, he seems like an awesome dude to play with and play for.

[Mitch]

They're also like polar opposite people. Like, for sure see their builds. Cam's more vocal and stuff in the media. Jalen's like suit and tie. Like, keep it. Keep it straightforward. Like, it's a fun debate, but like, I think it's Cam Newton all the way.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, it's a fun debate, but it's like the Eagles, their franchise is so much better than Carolinas. Like they were winning or Jalen hurts was there. They. They won when Cam. Or not Cam. Carson Wentz went down during an MVP season. Nick Foles comes in. They still win the super bowl years.

[Unknown]

What did they do in Cam's first four years?

[Mitch]

Cam also threw for 400 yards in his first game and 4, 000 yards as a rookie.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. And that was a franchise that was like, bad back. Yeah, that was bad, bro. Jalen hurts came into like a NFL winning culture, a Super bowl winning team. It's Cam Newton for me. Yeah.

[Mitch]

Gotta get him on the bus.

[Unknown]

I can't. I can't go with Cam. It just runs deeper than that.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, you can't.

[Unknown]

I can't.

[George Kittle]

Those are his first four seasons.

[Unknown]

I can't see what. What was Cam's first four seasons?

[Taylor Lewan]

What'd they do 6 and 10, 7.

[Mitch]

And 9, 12 and 4, 5, 8, 1.

[Unknown]

I mean, I know it's a team game, but look at Jalen Hurts.

[Taylor Lewan]

First four years.

[Will Compton]

But if you're looking at records, though, the Panthers weren't even close to.

[Unknown]

That's why I said I know it's a team game.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

But proven winner.

[Will Compton]

Right.

[Unknown]

But solo. Solo beast. Quarterback versus proven winner.

[Will Compton]

All right, let's see.

[George Kittle]

I.

[Unknown]

Do people still sleep on Hertz and I don't understand.

[Will Compton]

See, that's the thing. Like, I'm not sleeping on him for sure. I don't think you are, player. I think he's an awesome player for sure. When you're talking about the debate of Cam Newton versus Jalen hurts.

[Unknown]

I just think it's hard to not take Cam Newton for sure if you.

Have the number one overall pick between.

The two of them. Between the two of them, you're going to take.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, you're going to take Cam New.

[Unknown]

Newton, but if you're.

[Will Compton]

They're both sitting there, you're taking Cam Newton. Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

Hard.

[Unknown]

I can't say it, though.

[George Kittle]

It feels like the beginning Pokemon selection of, like, Charizard. Blastoise.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Mitch]

Which one they're going to evolve into?

[Will Compton]

Yeah, yeah. You know, and you're like, you know.

[George Kittle]

Cam's going to be a Charizard. Like, Blastoise is cool, too, but like a flying dragon that shoots fire.

[Unknown]

Like Jen Bulbasaur.

[Will Compton]

He might be Venusaur. No, no, not Venusaur.

[George Kittle]

That's like.

[Will Compton]

What's the middle one? You got Bulbasaur? Ivysaur. Yeah, he's Ivysaur.

[George Kittle]

He.

[Will Compton]

I mean, he's on such a. I just think. And I don't say that to take away from him. I'm just saying he is on a insane team.

[Taylor Lewan]

Who.

[Unknown]

How long did Cam play?

[Mitch]

I'm gonna say, like, he played, like, probably 10 or 11 years, but those last two were on, like, the Patriots and. Yeah, he went back to the.

[Unknown]

I'd be curious to see, like, at the end of her career, what the. The conversation is.

[Will Compton]

It's like, if they were. If they were both on middle of the road teams, like, Cam Newton can win you games, right? Cam Newton, like, it's proven that he. You can. He's a superstar that can win you games. Yeah, we don't know that. Like, maybe Jay. Well, that was the. Know that.

[Unknown]

That was the question early in his career with the Eagles was. I mean, we asked it last year for the super bowl. Like, would you rather have Pat Mahomes with two minutes left, going full field Or Jalen hurts. And I'm pretty sure we almost all picked Pat Mahomes.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

But yeah, it's hard because.

[Will Compton]

No, that's a good point because.

[Unknown]

Because he is on mvp.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. He took down the greatest dynasty, one of the greatest dynasties of all time in the Chiefs. But it's just so hard to compare these athletes and a game that is such a team game. But if you're just looking at pure ability, man.

[Unknown]

250.

[Will Compton]

I think Camp Newton is a psychopath out there on the field.

[George Kittle]

Yes. And I know that college isn't like a part of this argument, but to G's point of like, what do they bring to their team? It's. They went 140 his Heisman season, national championship season. That same roster. Similar roster. There was graduate like they had that really good running back that also graduated.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. Like before.

[George Kittle]

But the next year they went 8 and 5 and it's like 14 and 0 to 8 and 5. That's a. That's a big dip in just one year.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. Yeah. We're talking about Cam Newton.

[Unknown]

Think about the quarterback room at Florida though. Tebo and Cam Newton.

[Will Compton]

I know Pouncy bros. But you could have.

[Unknown]

You didn't have to throw the football at Florida if you just kept both of them.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. Y laptop, man.

[Unknown]

Damn that laptop, man.

[Will Compton]

Damn. Had to be a D. Kill the dynasty. Had to be a D. And what it's funny, you know, Eagles fans are probably like, oh, he didn't have like. They're probably picking out a year to where Jaylen did have like a type year. I just still hard.

[Unknown]

Jaylen did go to the super bowl before he had A.J. brown and Devonte Smith.

[Taylor Lewan]

So.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. Yeah, I still like. To me it's. It's. It's Cam Newton.

[George Kittle]

Cooper. Cam.

[Will Compton]

We'll get to that later.

[Unknown]

Whatever.

[Will Compton]

We have space for that in a little bit.

[Unknown]

And also from Arizona. Did you know that?

[Will Compton]

Yeah, I did not know he's from Arizona. Yeah, I know. His brother was on the Huskers for a moment.

[Taylor Lewan]

Moment. That's right.

[Will Compton]

Was really hoping he'd bring us back to superstardom.

[Unknown]

You were hoping for a Brock Purdy.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, 100 uniform because Brock was spinning it and I'd see Chubba Purdy. Okay, let's see what this kid's got. Thinking that we're gonna go. This is where we make our national championship run.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Let's say he was 2022.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yes. Yeah. 2022.

[Will Compton]

Was that when we were the greatest three win team in college football?

[Unknown]

Could have been. You guys are the greatest of all time.

[Will Compton]

2021, you missed it by a year. That was probably Scott Frost's last. Who?

[George Kittle]

Ross?

[Unknown]

Last hurrah.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, last hoorah.

[Unknown]

Dude, not since we're kind of on the college thing. How was high school recruiting for you?

[Taylor Lewan]

I mean, for me, it was all last minute. Same thing. I was like, still the. The guy that. I don't know if I hit a growth spurt late is what you want to call it, but I was just overlooked. And the last five weeks before signing days when I got the offers coming through, so I take like five trips in a row and then decide and sign.

[Unknown]

No.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. I mean, it was so random. It was Boise State, Iowa State, Alabama, Texas A&M. UCF.

[Will Compton]

Did Alabama and A M offer?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, yeah, but it was more like, you know, A M was legit, but the Bama offer was like, hey, we need a guy to fill up this roster. It was like a couple weeks after TUA threw that touchdown on the Natty. So like, yeah, they didn't have anyone, like, you know, to sign. Yeah, yeah. So yeah, hit me with the names again.

[Unknown]

It was A M, Alabama, Iowa State.

[Taylor Lewan]

Boise State.

[Unknown]

Boise State.

[Taylor Lewan]

Ucf.

[Unknown]

Ucf. Byu. Byu?

[Taylor Lewan]

No, not byu, madam.

[Unknown]

I don't know why I thought byu. No, I wasn't really listening too. I actually was the except of coffee burnt my mouth pretty hard and I was kind of in a blender myself. So I do apologize.

[Will Compton]

Iowa State over A M. I mean.

[Taylor Lewan]

At the time, dude, like, Jimbo Fisher just got to A M. Matt Campbell had been to Iowa State. And I just loved what Matt Campbell stood for. Like, he had this vision of like, you know, you're playing Big 12 football, Power 5, you know, they're like the. The sleeper, you know, kind of program. I was like, dude, I want to go somewhere and do something for the first time, like, my high school that I went to, they weren't known to be good or anything. And then growing up, I was like, I'm gonna go there and change that culture and then win. We went to the state championship game. We lost, but, like, took it to a new height. And same thing with Iowa State. I wanted to do that. And so I chose Campbell.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. Because A M. I know just back from our recruitment, like, in 08 and stuff, like A M pre Nil. Like, you're set up pretty nice on campus with, like, an apartment.

[Unknown]

Yeah. You had a nice setup.

[Will Compton]

You're not, like, in dorms.

[Unknown]

Really.

[Will Compton]

Like, you. You have a pretty red carpet experience.

[Unknown]

And you had the opportunity to go to A M's campus.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, no, I checked it out. It was. It was pretty sweet.

[Unknown]

Like, everything feels like a little bit of a. Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

I wasn't gonna say anything first. I was waiting for someone else to say that.

[Unknown]

Like, you get there and it's like, all of a sudden everything's.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

It's different. I don't really know. You know, obviously, the Aggie ring stuff, and. And, you know, when you graduate, you get an Aggie ring, and Aggies help. Aggies. Like, it was just like, all right, what's going on here?

[Will Compton]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

I have nothing against them. Like. Yeah. But that's just sort of, you know, my feel when I was there.

[Will Compton]

So how was your journey at Iowa State? You mentioned Coach Campbell. I would love to hear stories about him, because I feel like, just as an outsider with Iowa State not being, like, a prominent team that's covered year in and year out, you always kind of hear the rumors about Matt Campbell and what he's done at that program.

[Taylor Lewan]

Dude, he's the most loyal guy, you know, that I've ever met. You know, he was a guy that went to a small D3 Mount Union, and then just, like, new guys there and then brought them to Toledo. They won a lot of games there. Then they went to Iowa State. And he created this culture there. And, yeah, for all these years, everyone's like, dude, this guy, he's going to get picked up by all these teams. And, dude, that. He was getting thrown a lot of offers, you know, to go out to USC and all these other, like, NFL teams. And year after year, he just kept denying it and saying, no, I love this. This program, and I want to take it to new heights. And I got dudes here that. That, you know, I'm not even just trying to help them with football, but with life. Like, Campbell's like a father figure to so many guys. They know that he recruits and that come through that program. So just a loyal dude. Everyone loves playing for him. He's not about the money. All he cares about, man, is raising his kids right, being a family man, a father figure. He's got an amazing family. So, like, I. Dude, he's. He's the man I hope to be like him one day.

[Will Compton]

So when you were going to be quarterback for him your senior year and stuff, like, was he getting offered to go to different places at that point? At. At. At that time?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. Oh, yeah.

[Will Compton]

And what are your conversations like with him when you're probably like, hey, I. I hear what you're saying, but it's kind of. It's probably hard to turn these down. Are you actually going to be staying here for.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, I mean, for him, you know, he had a couple, you know, one year. I think the Lions was like a big one for him. And then my senior year, I was leaving, I was out the door. And we met with him after my senior night, and he was crying pretty hard our senior night. And everyone's like, all right, like, what's going on? You know, like, you could tell there was something going on, like he was going to leave kind of thing. Met with him the next day, and I think USC offered him something legit before Lincoln Riley. And so when they offered him some stuff, he was just deciding on whether to go. He's from Ohio, he's a Midwest guy. But I actually brought my dad with me the next day when I met with him and we talked, I was like, dude, my dad was in my life. Like, he coached me up ground balls all the meeting. Like, my dad was with me. Like, he was. He was there. And I'm so grateful for that.

[Will Compton]

That.

[Taylor Lewan]

And, you know, he was talking about out in la, it's just a different world, you know, compared to the Midwest and where he's used to and being in his kid's life and stuff. It would just be a different kind of environment and not knocking usc, California, anything. I'm not knocking anything. It's just. It's different. And so after that, like, he was. He was crying and, like, we all were going through emotionally and stuff, but he, you know, after that, he decided, you know, I'm gonna stay Iowa State. I'm not saying I was the determining factor in that, but. But I think just give him a little perspective on, you know, being a father. What matters, raising your kids. He could do that at Iowa State and names Iowa.

[Will Compton]

So, man, that's awesome.

[Unknown]

That is.

[Will Compton]

You know, you'd have a coach like that. Yeah.

[Unknown]

Who doesn't just look at a dollar sign and be like, okay, I'll make that next jump. Because obviously, we all have selfish thinking at some point being like, yo, this would be awesome to get X, Y, and Z. Do you know what number? Do you have an idea of what number?

[Taylor Lewan]

I have no idea. Yeah, he didn't tell me all that. He was just saying there was an offer.

[Will Compton]

You probably close to whatever Lincoln Riley was getting.

[Unknown]

Probably.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

You mentioned, like, being in high school and then choosing to go to a high school because you want to change the program. You go to Iowa State because you want to be a guy that changed the program. What. How did. Have you always been like that? Or is that, like, you know, something you learn? Like, okay, if I want to make a huge mark, this is how I got to do it. Like, what. What. What happened for that to happen?

[Taylor Lewan]

Dude, growing up, like, my family and I, we always talk about it. I always wanted to be on, like, the worst teams. Like, just to show everybody, like, there's this little edge on me or something where I was like, I'm gonna show everybody with what is dealt, like, what I've been dealt with. Like, I'm gonna try to make something cool out of it. And that's been all the way back to, you know, peewee or whatever. Like, just growing up, like, in the backyard. Dude, I want to pick the worst kids, like, our buddies that weren't that good, and I was gonna go beat my brother and all his buddies and, like, just to prove a point. But same thing with high school. Like, they were the highest division. They weren't that good. But I was like, dude, there's so many opportunities here to, like, go play good teams and, like, show people, like, what we're about and make a name for the school and stuff. So. So I don't know. I was drawn to that same thing. Iowa State, they play Power 5. They're going to go to OU, Texas. We're going to play all these big schools, and, you know, they haven't been really known for winning games, but I wanted to help put them on a map. And so, like, my time there, we got to, I think, like, sixth in the nation at one point. And, like, we were just outside of College Football playoff. Like, there's. We had our moments and did pretty well there, but I was just excited that I was surrounded by good people and we can go make a name for ourselves in that school. So. So been Attracted to that kind of mentality.

[Unknown]

My whole life you talked about playing a state championship, obviously. Being an Arizona cat myself, I'm interested. Who did you play in the state championship?

[Taylor Lewan]

Played Chandler High School. Yeah.

[Unknown]

And they're. They have what, like 15 guys going D1 dude.

[Taylor Lewan]

The whole. The whole roster.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

It's insane. It's like Chandler Brophy and there's like one other school, I think I'm Hamilton time.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

They always like the highest division. They're always the guys that are just turning out cats over and over again.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Just the star studded roster where.

[Unknown]

Star set.

[Will Compton]

Where everybody's going. Yeah, yeah, he's going to Miami. He's going here. He's going.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, yeah.

[Unknown]

So during this championship, huh?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. We got into the fourth quarter, lost by touchdown of those guys. No.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

We kicked an onside kick and we got it. But one of the kids on the opposite side of the field, like, ran a little early, was off sides. We had to re kick it and then we didn't get it in those game.

[Unknown]

How when you like you guys going back and watch that film, did you see the kid going a little faster.

[Taylor Lewan]

Or starting early slightly?

[Unknown]

Okay, so it was a questionable call. Ticky tack.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, it was ticky tack for sure. Sure.

[Unknown]

Okay, so you're thinking there was the Illuminati of high school football in Arizona was like, we can't let this happen.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

We can't let these underdogs take down.

[Taylor Lewan]

A. Yeah, no, it was.

[Will Compton]

It was sad going into your, like, going into the draft. Like, what were you hearing the potential of going into the draft? Because you obviously have a hell of a senior year. You did what you did in high school. You're kind of doing the same thing at Iowa State. I guess what I'm trying to ask, is there ever a point of you that's like you're just fed up with the. That they're not looking at the. The body of work and measuring you just by tangible things.

[Taylor Lewan]

I mean. Yeah, you know, it's. It's tough, you know, as an athlete going into the draft, like, trying to see, you know, from a NFL team's perspective, like, if you're good or not, and you have all these questions, you hear them talking about this guy's being compared to this quarterback and this is what his careers looked like as a backup or a practice squad guy to getting cut after a couple years. And then you start telling yourself, like, dang, am I not that good? Like, and what my. Is that what my career is going to look like. So there's all these different kind of things you start thinking. But for me, man, it was my whole life. Like, we just talked about with recruiting. I was overlooked. I set all these state records and stuff, and I never got one offer until the very last minute, you know, going into college as the backup, and I got an opportunity, and I rode with it. And so, like, learning from that experience going into the NFL, I was just like, dude, I don't really care what people say. It's how all. How can I get an opportunity? You know, it doesn't matter how you get there. It's what you do when you get there. Like, I just kept telling myself that and believing myself with that and sort of similar. I got drafted last. Like, my college recruiting all came very last minute. I got an opportunity very last minute by getting drafted by the Niners, and I was, all right. Like, let's just go make the most out of this opportunity.

[Will Compton]

So what was that like being drafted as Mr. Irrelevant, the last pick in the draft.

[Unknown]

Kind of badass.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. Dude, when did you think you were going to go? Go?

[Taylor Lewan]

I. I thought hopefully, you know, like, early day three. Not really knowing when or what, but. And then at the end, you know, the Niners said, hey, like, they called me before the seventh round started, and, like, we got one more pick. We're gonna try to take you or a safety. And I was all right. So I got off the phone and I Google it. And I was like, bro, it's the last pick. Like, you gotta be kidding. And so in that moment, I was like, dude, I could be Mr. Irrelevant this year. But I was laughing. I thought it was. Was, like, comical, but, yeah, just. Overall, man, I was so juiced. And then when they said my name on tv, dude, my whole family, like, screamed like I was the first overall pick.

[Will Compton]

It was fun, dude.

[Unknown]

They say, like, when you get, like, towards the end, like, you'd rather be a free agent than Mr. El. Was your agent saying that to you at all? Like, hey, you get to pick where you get to go and kind of.

[Will Compton]

Manipulate the situation back here.

[Taylor Lewan]

Right now, he's back here. Yeah.

[Will Compton]

This boy shout out, like, hey, it's almost better to go and draft than.

[Unknown]

Go in the seventh round, right?

[Will Compton]

@ least you get the. To pick your spot.

[Unknown]

Yeah. Three people try to draft Will in the seventh round. He said, no, I opted out of the draft. He go take me in the eighth.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. You know, I'm not taking any more phone calls. We're. We're shutting it like, please, please, we'll.

[Unknown]

Give you $10 million. Like, guys, please, you sound embarrassing me.

[Will Compton]

I'm choosing the team.

[Unknown]

Right, Exactly. You've always dictated your own career, buddy. I love you for that. But did you guys have that conversation? I mean, if you want to jump in, you're more than welcome to. Yeah, Yeah.

[Will Compton]

I guess a great question for an agent. When you got guys who are going to be, you know, when the day's unfolding, they're probably going to go in either the seventh round or undrafted. Like, what is that conversation with your guys? Whether they're taking it hard or they're. It seems like they're taking it well. Yeah. So I think you always want to be drafted, right?

[Taylor Lewan]

Because the team has all these guys.

[Mitch]

On the board and they choose you.

[Will Compton]

To be a draft pick. They've got a plan for you.

[Taylor Lewan]

They've got, you know, process for all.

[Will Compton]

That kind of stuff.

[Taylor Lewan]

So you always want to be drafted, drafted.

[Will Compton]

But the flip side is, if you're not drafted, you can renegotiate your contract.

[Taylor Lewan]

After two years instead of three, which.

[Will Compton]

Is a huge, you know, addition. Then you get to pick the situation.

[Taylor Lewan]

As well, which gives you a little bit more flexibility.

[Will Compton]

Are guys ever taking it wrong when you're kind of breaking it down for them? Like, are they. Are they ever in it mentally, like, when the seventh round's coming around? Like, why in the. Have I not been drafted yet? You told me this. Like, hey, buddy, I kind of said a few different things. Yeah, yeah, right. And you have an expectation. You try to set the expectation for.

[Mitch]

Your clients going into the weekend so.

[Taylor Lewan]

They have a great experience, a positive.

[Mitch]

Experience through the weekend to where, you.

[Will Compton]

Know, end of the day, whether you're drafted last or the beginning of the third day, you're still excited about, you know, the situation. Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

So. But I think for really all clients.

[Will Compton]

Even if they're drafted later than I thought, all of the pain and anguish.

[Taylor Lewan]

And disappointment goes away and it all disappears.

[Will Compton]

And just like Brock said, you celebrate.

[Mitch]

Like you're the first pick in the.

[Taylor Lewan]

Draft because you were drafted.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

And so that's really cool for guys.

[Unknown]

Us getting family juiced up. I know we're starting to lead into the NFL, but I do want to bring us back to college for a second. What's with you in the month of October? Are you obsessed with Spooktober? Do you love Halloween?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. I mean, everyone just called it Brocktober, and I was just riding with it. I was, all right, you gotta mess with it, huh?

[Unknown]

Go to whatever Whatever bars in town that Friday night be like, you know, it is October. Your boy might cook.

[Taylor Lewan]

I don't know what my stats are in college in October, but I'm pretty sure it's like crazy. I think I only had like two losses or something stats, but I think I was like 16.

[Will Compton]

Two.

[Taylor Lewan]

I do remember the two losses. That's why I remember that. But 16, yeah, that's.

[Unknown]

Who were those two losses too?

[Taylor Lewan]

Oklahoma State, I think. Both of them cowboys? I think so, man.

[Unknown]

I mean, they're not like. It's like, that's not the team you.

[Will Compton]

Want to see lost.

[Taylor Lewan]

I know, but I got. I was 2 and 2 against those guys in college, so I did get them. But yeah, the two in October, I'm.

[Unknown]

Like, bro, God, that's your mom.

[Taylor Lewan]

I Wish I was 18 and 0 in October.

[Unknown]

Yeah, that would have been a hell of a stat. Are you like, at what point is everyone being like, yo, October comes around. We're not worried about anything, like the fans.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, no, dude. Our most sold out games were in October. We're enjoying these.

[Unknown]

We're going to take these dubs coming out.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

That is crazy, right?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

You big Halloween fan?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, Ish. I like the movie Halloween. Like Michael Myers and all.

[Unknown]

Phenomenal. But there's also like seven.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, I know, I know. No, I agree. The old ones, dude.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

I got this nostalgia with like my dad. Like, it's Halloween. We're gonna put on Michael. My. Yeah, but the new ones, those old slashers.

[Unknown]

I thought the one that came out in was it 2020 was when the second one came out. Halloween kills.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

And that's where. Cuz that's when they brought Jamie Lee Curtis back. She did one other movie.

[Will Compton]

Right.

[Unknown]

But the original Halloween. Like James Carpenter who wrote that, he was like, this is like the first movie he like approved, essentially.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Since the original Halloween came out. I thought that was awesome. But it was definitely like a part two. And then Halloween ends.

[Will Compton]

Ruined our lives.

[Unknown]

Ruined our lives. We. Because we got excited. Excited. We got. Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Playing the theme song all the way to the theater.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

This is it. This is it.

[Unknown]

And we're just in the car.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Hoping we probably see him in the distance, honestly. And we go, buddy. It was terrible.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Unknown]

Terrible.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

I still want justice.

[Unknown]

We got. We'll get it back.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

But so October, you rip. What's your record in the NFL in October?

[Taylor Lewan]

That I don't know. Yeah, yeah. Honestly.

[Will Compton]

Got to bring. Bring it back.

[Unknown]

We got to bring that back. Yeah. October, we'll get Some graphics going paint.

[Will Compton]

A picture for what it was like going in the building your rookie year, like what situation you're in. I want to see. Trey Lance was there. Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yep.

[Will Compton]

Who else was in the quarterback room?

[Taylor Lewan]

Nate Sudfeld. So he's the best. Love Nate. It was those two guys and then they brought me in and then they also had Jimmy on the side. They didn't know like what was going to happen.

[Will Compton]

Was Jimmy injured or was that more contract?

[Taylor Lewan]

It was just more like the organization was like, hey, we're going with Trey Lance, you know, we're going to build them up. And obviously we got a. Jimmy was still under contract, but they were, I think, trying to trade and trying to make something else happen, you know, for, you know, his career and all that. But at the very end, Nate Sudfeld and I were like competing. They brought Jimmy back in and then released Nate and I was the third guy. So that's just sort of how the final roster.

[Will Compton]

What is it like for you? Like what you're learning about how much of an uphill battle it is for you as, you know, a seventh round pick going in your rookie season.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Competing with Nate Sudfeld and thinking like, okay, am I competing for a practice squad job? Like this is going to be. It's a little different than what I expected.

[Taylor Lewan]

No doubt. I mean, it's, it's. Nothing's given. I mean, I know you guys all know that, but every rep matters. I got two reps at the end of each period and that was my opportunity, like every day to show the organization and my teammates like, what I was made of. And so, so Nate got a lot of the second string reps and whatnot. And I absolutely love Nate Sedfeld. I know I said that, but nothing but respect. He took me in, man, taught me a lot of things, just how the NFL works and stuff. He was great and so did Trey. But, you know, that's just the NFL. You got to compete. And you know, for me it was. I got to go out there and I have nothing to lose. Exactly. Like I, I just got to go show these guys that I can go out there and rip it and, and make the right decisions and be a guy who, if something happens, I can go in and be trusted. Busted. And I thought I showed that throughout, you know, practice and, and some preseason games and stuff. And I know I've said this before, but like before the first preseason game, we're at practice, practice ends, we come in and I could see like Fred talking to Trent. And I like for Some reason, like, I just saw them talking and then I saw Fred say, like, I can't wait to watch this purdy kid at the preseason game tomorrow against the Packers. And I was like, shooting. I was like, okay. Like, at that point, my head has just been down. I'm just trying to do good at practice and all that. But I was like, all right. They are noticing, you know, like, the starters and the guys, like, they're. They're seeing something.

[Unknown]

Two dogs.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. So for me, I was like, all right, now I just gotta go out in the game and under the lights in front of everybody and execute and saw that chip on my shoulder, bro, and not look back.

[Will Compton]

So, yeah, obviously that's a moment where you're feeling it from your teammates and your peers. It's a really cool feeling. When in the coaching staff was a turning point to where it's like, okay, I am. It seems like I'm turning a couple heads right now.

[Taylor Lewan]

I mean, just after practice and stuff, watching the film, like, greasy and Kyle, like coming in and going over it with all the quarterbacks and just like rep after rep, like being consistent, accurately ripping it in tight windows. Like all those little things. I. I was like. They never really said much, but I was like, they got to be thinking something like, like, yeah, you know, but I just never. I didn't know. Yeah. And. But, you know, you still have to go through another practice and finish camp strong and play well in the preseason games. And then when the roster comes down to it, you find out. And for me, I had no idea. No one said anything to me. I was just trying to get a feel through my teammates and stuff. But all that honestly, didn't matter. What mattered was me going out the next play and doing it again. And so it wasn't until, you know, the roster came out and then they're start. Well, actually, they were starting to like, make cuts and call guys into Kyle's office. And so we're in the quarterback room and then Kyle opened up the door. He goes, hey, Brock, you grab your stuff and come talk to me. I was like, bro. I was like, am I getting cut? Like, I was like, dang, dude. And then he goes, no, I'm kidding. He set your stuff down. He's like, congrats, bro. And then dat me up.

[Unknown]

No shit.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. I was like, dude, my heart was pounding me. But I don't know, all those moments were.

[Will Compton]

It's wild because, like, oh, they're starting to coach me a little bit harder right now because you kind of just don't know. And for everybody, like, listening and watching, it's like when you're at the bottom, bottom, you're kind of just, you know, you realize, like, you're kind of. There's zero focus on you. If you work out, great. If not, like, you are who we thought you were. And those moments. I remember being in the linebacker room before our first preseason game at Tennessee, and my linebacker coach, he wasn't super into me at the time, and he was like, will, they want to see you run with the Twos? Apparently you've been doing some pretty good things, I'm thinking. I mean, that sucks to hear from my position coach, but that's when it's.

[Unknown]

Like, oh, good stuff. I don't see it. They see it. So I guess we're to roll with that.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, but you're just sitting there and whether or not, like, you know, it is all about going to the next plane stuff, but it's like a, like a, an expectation you have on yourself to where you're thinking about it just non stop. Like, what are these thinking? Like, am I going to have a shot? My family set me up, My friends are hitting me up. What are they thinking right now? There's a lot of. There's a lot of anxiety, but that is, that's sick.

[Unknown]

Talk about Trent, though, a little bit, because as an office lineman, he's our goat. Like, he is maybe the greatest to ever play the game. Oh, yeah, he is amazing. How. How does it feel when he's in the game compared to when he's not in the game? And I know that's a tough question because I can already tell how polished you are in the media. So now you're thinking to yourself, well, I want to give Trent a compliment, but I also know that if I say I don't feel as comfortable in the backup feels a certain way, but just Trent. Yeah, Trent. Dude, did I not nail that?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yes.

[Unknown]

Right?

[Will Compton]

Yes.

[Unknown]

It's tough. I get it. I promise you're going to be all right. Trent, though.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

The safety, the security blanket of knowing like 10 other guys have to me, including 10 guys have to worry about it. I know I don't have to worry about that. That's got to be a hell of a feeling, dude.

[Taylor Lewan]

I mean, so far my career, it's been like that. Last year he got hurt towards the end, and it's just different, you know, obviously, whoever gets thrown in, I trust and we're good, but great job having Trent in as a Hall of Famer. Dude, you watch his run game and the stuff, the moves that he does, it's like, what the heck?

[Unknown]

Like he's cutting off a guy. He just like pushes.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Real quick.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. And it's like he does like we always call it, like he does this ninja move thing and then pushes guys in the ground and, and then outside of that, just pass prone stuff. Like he's locked down over there. And so year after year for me, like blindside as a quarterback, right handed quarterback, knowing that my left side is good, like, it's. I can't even describe to you, like, I don't know, I'd like a sense of freedom, but just overall what he does and obviously seeing 23 run behind him and I'll hand the ball off and look back and see him split like two guys and just opens up everything and, and I don't know, it goes hand in hand with everything. If you can run the ball, you get the pass game so much better. And so the fact that he's so good and dominant in the run game year after year, because he's getting older, obviously. And we always ask ourselves every year when he comes back, we're like, is Trent going to be the same? Is this still the Trent Williams, like, dude? Year after year, it's. He's the same guy. And anyways, absolutely love him. For me to be a quarterback in the NFL and have that guy blocking for me, dude didn't get any better.

[Unknown]

When you're in the middle of the season and he gets an ankle or something like, like that during the week on that Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, you checking in that training room, be like, hey.

[Taylor Lewan]

So House, I'm always checking in.

[Unknown]

You got to make sure, hey, I know how cool all the boys are doing, but how's Trent going? Is he going to be all right?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, no, he's my like little safety blanket. I'm like, I need my binky and I need him to be. But no, dude, he's. And it's funny, he'll go through an injury or whatever and then he'll. He's real with me. He's like, rocky, like, I'm good, I got you. Just wait. Like Sunday comes around, I'll be good. And he's right. He goes out there and kills. Kills it. But the other games where he's like, rocky, like, it's probably not it. And I was like, dang it.

[Unknown]

Yeah. So they're not sleeping as good.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Things aren't going as well.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

No disrespect to the backup guy. We love the Backup guy. I'll put that in for you. But, yeah, they do.

[Will Compton]

Trent, you know, Brock probably drives in because Trent drives, like, a different vehicle to work every day. But, you know, Brock probably drives in. He's like, hey, I saw you. I saw you pulled up in the Bentley. You feeling pretty good?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Gotta feel nice about that.

[Will Compton]

That's the healthy car.

[Unknown]

Yeah, that's the healthy car. Playing that correctly.

[Will Compton]

Pretty good.

[Unknown]

And it is October. I go off in October.

[Will Compton]

You're pulling up.

[Unknown]

Yeah. Seems like you're in a good mood.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, dude. Last year, he got a driver, and we were all joking around. We're like, dude, he just, like, comes right in and he's holding a baggie and all these things. Like, bro, did your driver give you all those snacks and stuff? And, like, he gets door dash basically to work every day. Like, we just, like, joke around. Like, Trent just pulls up in a new car, new driver. Yeah. I'm like, what is going on? That's like, another world.

[Unknown]

Were you insecure about giving him a toy Toyota?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, I felt like I literally went up to him and I was like, hey, dude. Like, you know, Toyota's helping us out. We got 10. 10 of them for all the alignment and stuff. Like, just curious, like, do you still want yours or not? And he's like, hell, yeah. He's like, I'll paint that thing pink. And I'm like, all right. So, okay. But then, sure enough, he forgets about it. Somehow everyone gets their cars and stuff, and they're like, trent, like, what'd you think about yours? And he's like. He's like, brock, what did I get, a truck or a car? And I was like, bro, Trent doesn't even know that is so. George is like, bro. Like, George is trying to, you know, bargain to get Trent's Toyota. George is like, bro.

[Unknown]

He was on a couple weeks ago talking about it.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. Yeah. So I still don't know if Trent's driven it or not. So.

[Unknown]

Do you.

[Will Compton]

He hasn't.

[Unknown]

Have you thought about lobbying for receivers and running backs to give you a present for Christmas?

[Taylor Lewan]

That is a good point.

[Unknown]

I don't think about it. You're facilitating the ball. Without you, there is no stats for them, man.

[Taylor Lewan]

As long as I just keep catching the ball, getting yak. That's all I can ask.

[Unknown]

That's all that matters.

[Taylor Lewan]

That's all. Yeah, that's it. That's a good point.

[Will Compton]

Take us. Take us back to the moment to where you're taking over the job for Trey Lance. Obviously, there's a lot of noise around when that situation's happening because he gets traded to Dallas. Everybody's in, everybody's spazzing out because they trade away a first round pick. They're going with you and trust you. Everybody has a lot of question marks around that take us back to that moment and what you were feeling and how you were kind of handling. Handling all the different noise and just trying to focus on. I just need to go out there and play my brand of football.

[Taylor Lewan]

I mean, it's tough, you know, because Trey and I are tight, dude. And like, absolutely. Like, we're boys and we're bros, and I know you guys know that playing, you know, when you're in the locker room stuff and you got guys, that's your competition, like your boys. And everyone wants to make it out to be a big thing on whatever, but I. I wanted nothing for the best for him, and I know he wanted that for me, but that's just how this business goes and all that. So. So when it did happen, we were about to play our preseason game against the Chargers, and right before the game, like, they announced it and, you know, didn't really know how to act or what to think. I was just like, man, I hope, you know, he can go to Dallas and compete and have a great opportunity. You know, like, when you grow with a guy and you're in meetings in the locker room and stuff, you just. You want the best for him. And so I wanted that. And so. But after that moment, it was just like, all right, like, obviously, I was the guy at the end of the year, the year before tore, my UCL came back, back, and now I have to go prove it again this whole season. And so that's just where my mindset was at with that. And I knew that I had a good team around me, and I just got to go out there and rip it, win games, put together a good season, and. And we did. Went to the super bowl and. And that was that. But just try to keep it simple, not listen to what, you know, people say. Is he good enough? Is he not? That's always going to be a thing with me in the NFL, and I know that.

[Unknown]

So, yeah, with the ucl, and then that off season happened, happening, and then the whole Trey thing going on, like, was there, like, a lot of noise of, like, who should we start? Who should we not start?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, there were some things, and honestly, I didn't even know, like, what was gonna happen. My clear date was, like, right at the end of camp, right before the season started, I had to go two practices on, one off, two on, where all the other quarterbacks are getting all the reps, like, for that practice that I wasn't playing. So, like, there was just. There was a bunch of questions, I think, for all of us, like, will I be back? Will I be healthy by the time season kicks off?

[Will Compton]

Off.

[Taylor Lewan]

Will trade. End up starting because of my arm, like, all the things I didn't know. And so it really wasn't up until the very last minute where I was like, no, I'm good. I'm good to play, and I was playing well in camp. So, I mean, Niners made the decision to. To trade him.

[Will Compton]

So how hard was that recovery with the ucl?

[Taylor Lewan]

Dude, it was. It was a grind. I mean, you tear it. What was that? Late January. And then you get back for, what is that first game in. In August or whatever, September. And I feel like people just forgot about it, you know, like, the. The fact that I literally had a surgery on my throwing arm and then came back and went all the way to the super bowl, like, that year was a grind for me, dude. Like, I didn't stop. And Raven, the season ended in the NFC Championship. The game or the. Yeah, the year before, getting the surgery, rehabbing every day, taking all the things, the vitamins and. And supplements and just trying to help my sleep out. All the things, dude. It's a grind. And so to be able to get back for the season and make it at the end, I know we lost and it sucked, but I was just like, dang, like, what a part of my story and testimony, like, getting back, like, that was. It was insane. So. Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Do you have a lot of moments where you were kind of doubting if you would still have the same ability?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. I mean, I had no idea, dude. This is my, like, you know, you talk about Tommy John and baseball and stuff with pitchers. Like, I know they always say, oh, you come back stronger and stuff if it goes right. Like, you just never know. But for me, I was in, you know, uncharted waters with everything when it comes to surgery. I never had a major surgery like this. And for it to be on my throwing arm, I was like, dude, like, you know, I'm trying to get back in five, six months where other guys, Tommy John and stuff can take up to a year and more.

[Unknown]

More.

[Taylor Lewan]

And so I'm trying to, like, push that timetable and put all the pieces together. And so there's definitely moments, like days in the training room and we're doing exercises where I Was like, bro, this sucks. Like, I can barely open my. My palm. Like, how am I supposed to grip a football and then throw it and do it over and over again and win games? Like, there's definitely moments where I thought that, but, you know, I was just trying to take it one step at a time. I'm a faithful man. Trust that God's got a plan and lean into that.

[Unknown]

So how does. Who does your surgery? Ultra Josh?

[Taylor Lewan]

No, Keith Meister in Dallas.

[Unknown]

In Dallas?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

How long. What was, like, that process, like, so NFC championship game happens.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

How soon are you in Dallas, dude?

[Taylor Lewan]

I went, like, two weeks. I want to say later. And he's like, nah, like, your arm is still inflamed. And he's like, you have to go do rehab to get the inflammation to go down and then come back and.

[Unknown]

Do surgery, which I'm sure was just a horrible feeling because you're just saying yourself, how fast can I get back surgery?

[Taylor Lewan]

Squeeze over, dude, that's. That's when I was like, you know, sort of panicking. I was like, dude, we're just wasting time right now. Like, I tore it. And, like, the next day I was like, all right, are we flying there in two days and having surgery this and that? And everyone's like, hold up. Like, your arm, your ligament is in pieces. Like, you got to let it calm down so that when he cuts you open and does surgery, he knows what he's looking at, can put. Put it back together and all that. So when they told me that, like, no, you gotta wait and go to rehab, then come back, I'm like, dude, dude, there's no way I'm not gonna get back in time and this and that.

[Unknown]

So did you the thought of across your mind just staying in Dallas so you'd have to fly to cause in more inflammation?

[Taylor Lewan]

No. We asked that question, like, you know, is. Is the flying in the airplane and all gonna blow it up? And they said, no, like, you can do your rehab, get on a quick plane flight over, and you'll be good. He has done it with pitchers all the time.

[Unknown]

So what's the functionality, like when you. When you tear it, obviously, you try to go back in the game. We'll get. We'll get to that game in a little bit. But, like, between the time of. After that game, you go to Dallas and then you finally get the surgery. Like, are you able, like, to move it? Like, how. How does it feel? How's it operating? Does it feel, like, kind of normal at times, but then other times you like, move it a different way, Correct?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. I mean, grabbing stuff and I could, like, lift light things. I was fine with that. But the moment it went back, like, when you stretch on that ligament, like, it was just space opening up and it would just zing my whole arm. And so it was about a month of that, you know, and. And trying to get the inflammation to go down so that we could have surgery, but.

[Unknown]

So you're in the middle of February.

[Taylor Lewan]

Before you had that surgery, Correct? I know. I think March. March, yeah, March 10th or something.

[Unknown]

In your mind, you're just thinking, I've wasted a month.

[Taylor Lewan]

Correct, yeah. At that point. And they were saying, like, six months is what you're going to need, you know, to get back. And then March 10th till whatever. Like, actually came back a couple weeks early, if you actually look at it.

[Unknown]

So how did you work through the process of, like, not pushing it so hard, hard, as opposed to, like, not doing enough? Like, where'd you finding the balance? Because you strike me as a cat that's like, you're gonna put the work in. You're not. You're gonna let the main thing be the main thing consistently. Yeah, but like, when. When. When you feel good. And trainers, like, hey, I'm just telling you, you might feel good now, but let's take a little bit of space here. Like, how receptive are you to those kind of. That kind of communication?

[Taylor Lewan]

No doubt. I mean, at the time, man, it was. It was about my career. Not just. Just that season. Like, I wanted to make sure that my arm healed right, that I have, you know, enough. Like, it was. It was good when I came back 100 to go and compete and put good film on the tape and not just be out there, just early, just to be out there. Like, I wanted to make sure that I was taken care of even after the season that I could throw. And this is how I make my living and so wanted to do it right. Obviously, I was going to do every little thing to speed up the process and all that, but I trusted in the trainers and everybody, and we had a big collaboration with everybody, the surgeon, our trainers, everybody. And I trusted in our timetable, our plan, and. And I just went after that way. But when it comes to, like, sleep, nutrition, all that stuff, that sort of opened my eyes into, like, you know, what inflames the body, what doesn't foods and things that you put in all of it. And so going through that sort of opened up my eyes with that, just with my career as a whole. But it's Balancing that and not just trying to get back so quick and holding on to it tightly, like. Like, that's where my faith comes in, man. Like, holding it loosely with, you know, God and. And just going hard with where he has me, but not trying to control it on my own. Like, whatever happens is gonna happen for his reason.

[Unknown]

So what from the. The nutrition, sleep standpoint did you learn that you didn't know then that some kids probably listening to right now and probably going through an injury and might not know that you could share?

[Taylor Lewan]

Dude, like, staying up late, blue light on your phone, like, how bad that is for you. And. And there's so many times, like, before bed, like, I'd be on my phone. Phone, I'd be like, I'm gonna just check my phone, and then I'm on it for another 30 minutes, 45 minutes, hour.

[Unknown]

Yeah, it gets you.

[Will Compton]

Dude.

[Taylor Lewan]

Dude, that blue light is, like, so bad for you. Late. And just your circadian rhythms and sleeping and all that. And so getting a legit 8. 8 hours of sleep, trying to read beforehand, like, a book or something to sort of get your body down, and then just all the sugars and. And the toxic things. Like, my wife, she's, like one of those crunchy girls now. Like, she has all, like, the healthy things and healthy foods and, like, I'm talking everything, man, from flour to candy, like, cutting out seed oils, all those things as best as you can, and staying disciplined, and you see the results.

[Unknown]

So it's a crazy wormhole to go down, huh?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

When you start to unlock, like, the level of, like, health, and you're like, okay, this is good. Then you see, like, oh, there's a whole nother level here, and it never really ends.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Have you ever looked at, like, Ben Greenfield or Andrew Huberman or anything like that?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Will Compton]

Those guys, our kings.

[Unknown]

Our kings. That was our thing when we met. He came over from the Redskins. Like, our whole thing was accountability. So we do. Like, Ben. Was it Ben Greenfield's protocols.

[Will Compton]

Was a lot of it. Yeah.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Like, seven was still legal back then.

[Unknown]

Yeah. Which I wish you could have had. That's. We were ahead of our time, ahead of our time. We just knew the game better than the rest.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Or there are people you're leaning on throughout this recovery process when times are down or low, like somebody you're on the phone with.

[Taylor Lewan]

I mean, obviously, like, at the time, it was my girlfriend and fiance, and now we're married, so her. And then my parents, man, just. They always believed in me from Being a late recruit to the last draft pick. Like, no one's been a bigger supporter in my life than my family because they've always seen what I've done and. And always wanting, like, the not so good and making it something great. Like, they've always have been the ones that give me confidence and believe. So just throughout the process that my agent was awesome. Talking to, like, pastors and mentors and stuff, just to understand what's most important in my life. And so that all that combined, man, helped me, makes me who I am.

[Will Compton]

So that NFC championship game was wild.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Quarterbacks dropping Christian McCaffrey's out there under center. What were some of the game plan strategies? Like, after who. Who was the backup to you?

[Taylor Lewan]

It was Josh Johnson.

[Will Compton]

Josh Johnson. He goes down. Like, is there ever, ever, like, are there those talks happening of you under center and taking snaps? So at least there's a look or a threat of possibly throwing the ball. Are you just running the offense as well as you could?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, I mean, I literally went back in and I was under center handing the ball off and stuff. And just. I'll never forget, like, handing the ball off when it was a run to the left with my right arm and it just opened up my ucl, bro, that sucked. And then Kyle called two screen passes, and so I threw those, like, grenades. And it's just. All of it. It was just tough in general. But Kyle said the same thing, like, we're going to get you under center and hopefully try to set up screens as best as we could. Outside of that man who was praying that a run would break and Christian can go 80. And if that didn't work, do a reverse or have hand the ball off to Christian, then him throw it deep to nobody. So it was. The whole situation, man, was just tough in general. So I'm. Now we got the three quarterback rule. And because of that.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, yeah. You guys had such a year, and for that, I know, go down in that fast fashion sucked because that was the game.

[Unknown]

It was like, whoever wins this game is going to win it.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

It was two teams that the rosters were most put together. But it's hard, man. It's not every team like the 2024, 2024 Michigan Wolverines, you can't just turn off passes.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

And able to have that level of success, you know? You know, we saw Ohio State, we saw Alabama. Like, it's.

[Will Compton]

It's.

[Unknown]

Takes a special breed of human. All right, That's a great point. It's a good point. It's a great point. What was you. How. How confident were you in Christian McCaffrey throwing passes if he had to?

[Taylor Lewan]

Dude, first of all, Christian's one of the best athletes, you know, out there, so. And I really didn't try to throw.

[Will Compton]

With them too much. I was yelling at the team.

[Taylor Lewan]

I know. I thought we were gonna do more, but, yeah, the other day, we're at practice and stuff, and we're throwing just me and Christian. I'm like, dude, like, Christian's got a good form like a quarterback, and he's got, you know, the muscle to go deep. So I was actually curious why we didn't, like, do much more, so.

[Will Compton]

Dude, I know. Like, Shannon, what are we doing? We got to throw the ball.

[Unknown]

Backyard football in an NFL game being like, guys, hope is lost.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

I know we say fight for 60 minutes, but it's over.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Christian, get out there and have some fun.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Go out there, tell you can the boys to go deep, and we'll see what we can work out around here.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. And you get Trent Williams at the end, pissed off, just trying to fight guys at that point, just crazy.

[Will Compton]

Picks out a small guy, just body bags him.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Is this the same year. Is this the same year you guys played Cleveland and Cleveland was spouting off and Trent tossed that poor young man to the side, or is that the next year?

[Taylor Lewan]

That was the next year. You talking about, like, pregame?

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Because you guys were, what, like, undefeated at that point?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, we were 5, 050. Yeah.

[Unknown]

And then dropped three in a row.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

But that was the start of it, where Cleveland was kind of mouthing off a little bit. I'm thinking to myself, watching that pregame, like, Cleveland, what the are you guys doing?

[Will Compton]

It's always good when you got Trent on your side.

[Unknown]

Yeah, Trent just goes over grabs. Yeah. Look at this. Who is. Who's doing the money thing?

[Taylor Lewan]

Is that you? And then Trent's just like, bro, Trey's.

[Unknown]

Just looking for that smoke cleansing. That poor kid, you know, when he got pushed to the ground, he's like, oh, party's over.

[Taylor Lewan]

Party's over so fast.

[Unknown]

Who started that? Who started?

[Taylor Lewan]

I can't remember. I know Debo and BA Love getting pretty psyched up before games and talking, so. Yeah.

[Unknown]

Where are you during the scrum? You in the middle?

[Taylor Lewan]

I wish.

[Will Compton]

He's in the prayer in the shower. What was it like losing. Losing Debo this off season?

[Taylor Lewan]

I mean, it sucks, dude. He's. He's my boy, you know? I love Debo. Day one, he's always had my back and believed in me. When I got in, I didn't really know, you know, how the guys were going to take it. When I did get thrown in, Jimmy went down. I was like the last quarterback. And Debo, man, was nothing but just great to me, dude. Building me up and just gave me confidence, man. In games, you know, we fed off each other's energy and building each other up like, it was awesome. And over the last couple years, same thing. So when you loot. I mean, we created just a great relationship. He's my brother, but again, that's just how this business goes. And I hope he goes to Washington and kills it and. And does great. I mean, anytime you get Debo the ball, man, you never know what can happen. So, yeah, he's an explosive player, exciting to watch. He's got a lot of great ball in front of him, too.

[Unknown]

So we had a. We had George on a couple weeks ago. We brought up a clip that's resurfaced during. Or not resurfaced, but surfaced during OTAs of depot. And he's catching some slack for being a little heavy, not running very fast. You see that clip?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

What do you have to say about that? I mean, what's your thoughts?

[Taylor Lewan]

What do you have to say? Yeah, put me on the spot now, dude.

[Will Compton]

Because George's answer was he's like, these are routes. He's like rots on air.

[Taylor Lewan]

He's like, that was probably walkthrough and stuff. You know, people don't. They see things online because the media can come out and videotape anything, and you could be in a walkthrough going half speed and all that, and they blow it out of proportion. So I know when the season comes, roll around too, and you know, Debo's gonna have a chip on his shoulder this year for sure, and he's gonna be just fine. So I don't buy into any of that stuff.

[Unknown]

When the media does come out and says negative things that they probably have no idea what they're talking about about, how does the team, the locker room. Do you guys rally around that? You kind of just ignore the noise?

[Taylor Lewan]

No, I mean, I don't really think anyone, you know, buys into that kind of stuff. It's being said and guys might hear it and whatnot. But like I said before, at the end of the day, the only thing that matters is the next play. The guys around you, are you guys in it together? Are you not like it's all that matters. If you're buying into what people say on the outside, man. You know, it's just. It's honestly just wasted time, wasted thinking. So I know you guys know that from playing like.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

Things are always going to be said. That's just the job. Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. You always are going to hear some just naysayers and haters just.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Spewing nonsense.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

You've dealt with a lot of. With a lot of that. A lot of noise in your career. There's one statement that I have pulled up that was said about you. I have. The quote is I have.

[Unknown]

Onward.

[Will Compton]

The quote says I have. From a reliable source told me back in January that Brock Pie's not the guy. He's not the guy. He's not as good as people think he is. I was just told that he has aliens around him and that's why he looks so good. But once there's enough film out there on him, people are going to know how to beat him. That's what I've been told. And that's what has happened over the last three weeks.

[Taylor Lewan]

Sheesh.

[Will Compton]

That was a quote about Brock Purdy. I'm assuming after the. The three game losing streak when you guys started off five zero and then rolling the Cleveland and somebody had some choice words.

[Taylor Lewan]

That's crazy.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. I think it was you. You said that we know how we that feels as players. I actually think it was from an ex player. He might be sitting to my left.

[Taylor Lewan]

Shut up. You said that, bro. What a tool.

[Unknown]

Can I just.

[Will Compton]

Can I get.

[Unknown]

Can I get five? Can I get 30?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, go ahead.

[Will Compton]

That's a strong like just trying to remember a bad.

[Unknown]

That's like when Bill Burr literally has a bit about this about just reading a thing like your honor, she said no, stop. You're so bad. You're like. Oh, she didn't say it like that. Yeah, like that didn't. I didn't say it like that. Those are the exact words that came.

[Will Compton]

Out of my mouth that went vi those going viral.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

I'll let Taylor George.

[Unknown]

George had words for me. Christian had words for me. And yeah, somebody told me that's in the NFL that told me that. And being my first year not in the NFL, I took those words and I brought them to the K Adam show.

[Taylor Lewan]

Dude.

[Unknown]

And then you guys went to the super bowl that year.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

And I don't know if you remember.

[Taylor Lewan]

But I. I publicly apologize him saying that. Yeah, dude. No, honestly, I don't. That's why I was just in shock when I heard it.

[Unknown]

God. Cuz we this Is really nice. It's been good for both of us, right?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. I mean, this is. We should probably cut this episode. I'm out.

[Will Compton]

Oh.

[Unknown]

Yeah. In Las Vegas.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

I walked. I came up to your booth and I publicly apologized, and you're like, oh, man. All good. Don't worry about it.

[Taylor Lewan]

Shoot. Maybe. Yeah.

[Unknown]

So I thought we were square.

[Taylor Lewan]

Okay.

[Unknown]

But we're not. That's kind of nasty. No, that sounded way nastier than it.

[Taylor Lewan]

Is when you said that. I was thinking of, like, a early 2000s, like, receiver or somebody that's always on networks and stuff. Yeah, him.

[Will Compton]

Oh, you were actually surprised learning that was him.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Yes. He's over here drinking his water like.

[Taylor Lewan]

He'S on in a. Dude, I was thirsty.

[Will Compton]

That's crazy.

[Unknown]

Thirsty for justice. And I'm glad we're getting it.

[Taylor Lewan]

That's.

[Unknown]

We pulling this up.

[Will Compton]

Isn't that nuts?

[Unknown]

This is my pitch. I don't know why SHM wants to.

[Taylor Lewan]

Bring this up so I should listen to this kind of criticism. This kind of. This kind of athlete.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. Wild. He said this kind of athlete.

[Unknown]

He doesn't know my stats.

[Will Compton]

We were arguing earlier on the episode that drops tomorrow, that I was like, hey, I don't know if you can claim elite athlete. Like you were elite at blocking people and being a football. Football player, but I don't know if you can claim elite status. Athlete status with a throw like that.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Publicly.

[Taylor Lewan]

No. Yeah, that's. I agree with that.

[Unknown]

I can tell I've become the villain in your mind.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

That chip. You always talk about how I always bet on myself. Like, I'm gonna. There's gonna be a photo of me.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

In your locker. This guy never.

[Will Compton]

Brock's just thinking, like, he's a friend of the show and he knows this brand is a. A brand about being for the boys. Yeah. And he hears that quote and he's.

[Unknown]

Like, that's not a nasty.

[Will Compton]

Taking shots when they're out on three. Game losing streak.

[Unknown]

Can I say when I heard your reaction?

[Will Compton]

Not sitting at 5 and 03. Game losing streak.

[Unknown]

Can I by your reaction of not knowing that was me? It's gotten 10 degrees hotter in here for me. Yeah, I'm sweating a little bit.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Cuz I'm wrong, right? I'm a. I'm a wrong nasty boy for saying that, dude.

[Taylor Lewan]

Oh, really? We're gonna pull up this. Throw this up, bro. Okay, first of all.

[Will Compton]

I warmed up.

[Taylor Lewan]

For, like, 20 minutes. I tried ripping it.

[Will Compton]

Oh, it wasn't as bad.

[Taylor Lewan]

And it hit his glove.

[Will Compton]

That's not. That's not as terrible.

[Unknown]

Okay, let's play this game. What position do you play?

[Taylor Lewan]

Quarterback.

[Unknown]

How much did you just get paid? Contract?

[Taylor Lewan]

You know, 265.

[Unknown]

And I know you know you don't play the social media game, but you probably saw Joe Burrow at Fanatics Fest.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, I saw that. Yeah.

[Unknown]

So.

[Taylor Lewan]

Okay. Yeah. Thank you. Are you trying to help me out right now?

[Unknown]

I'm trying to help us out. We're on the same team. We both had bad pitches. You're. Yours is a little bit better than mine, no doubt, but different positions was more like.

[Will Compton]

What.

[Unknown]

Would you consider yourself an athlete?

[Taylor Lewan]

Me?

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yes. 100 elite.

[Unknown]

1% of 1%.

[Will Compton]

1 of 32.

[Taylor Lewan]

For being real, like, athletic to dunk and sprint and all the like. Honestly, no, I'm not. I'll be real about it. But, like, throwing and like, the. The hand, eye coordination things. Yeah, I would say pretty elite.

[Unknown]

Was it 44?

[Taylor Lewan]

8.

[Unknown]

48 what?

[Taylor Lewan]

4, 8, 1.

[Will Compton]

He got you by a few millies.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

What'd you get?

[Unknown]

487. £310.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Before the. Before the San Francisco Fans, I was 309. I get it, 309. But let's just make bygones be bygone. I'm sorry.

[Taylor Lewan]

It's all good.

[Unknown]

Is it actually? Because you strike me as a guy that says it's all good, but then you walk away and you get in the car with your agent, you're like, I can't believe if you made me go on that show.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, I'll definitely.

[Will Compton]

Like, I can't believe that was him.

[Taylor Lewan]

That's crazy.

[Unknown]

He would say that, but just know me.

[Taylor Lewan]

No, I agree. What you said, dude. Like, the show's called busting with the Boys. Like, we're supposed to be boys, bro. That actually hurt. But we're boys. Like, hey, that's what we do. We forgive, we move on, and we got each other's back.

[Unknown]

But you're not really forgiving. No, you're. You're saying the words, but I feel like I could see it in your eyes, dude.

[Taylor Lewan]

That's all.

[Will Compton]

I think if you.

[Unknown]

If you could turn the lights off in here right now and hit me, you would.

[Taylor Lewan]

No, I would turn the cheek for a little bit with the lights off. Yeah. No, dude, seriously.

[Will Compton]

I think what's painful is, you know, he. He's being genuine about it. Probably just makes it hurt that much worse.

[Unknown]

Yes.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Yes. And I'm sitting in this pool of insecurity right now being like, I thought that was Supposed to be a fun joke where I thought he would click in his head. Oh, Taylor said that.

[Taylor Lewan]

That.

[Unknown]

But really, the fact that he was blindsided about it makes it hurt more.

[Taylor Lewan]

That's actually crazy. Dude. I'm not lying. Yeah.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

I kind of want to stoke the fire more, but again, I just saying. I thought he was more like. He kind of knew. He already knew, like, coming on. He kind of knew. Because when I apologize, I'm like, okay. Just playing into the joke, knowing that he's blindside. I'm like, oh, damn. Yeah. Him understanding this for the first time, it's almost like he's on state. He's on step one right now. So this is something that's in the past for us, right?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

But not for him. This is.

[Unknown]

No, this is brand new. This is a fresh wound.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

And we need to nurture that.

[Will Compton]

He went on to take him to the super bowl and then get his quarter of a billion dollar contract.

[Unknown]

That's quarter plus. Don't disrespect that. 15 mil.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, no, it's all good. No, it's all good. When you read that thought, you're going to be like. So you hear a quote like this, you know, how do you. But then you just straight up pointed to him and he's over there gulping down the water all way the Was.

[Will Compton]

Like, what I should have gave.

[Taylor Lewan]

But seriously, probably should have set that up better.

[Unknown]

No, no, it's tough. It's tough.

[Taylor Lewan]

It's all good.

[Unknown]

But, hey, so what I. When? So Monday. Media days at the super bowl, when I say, hey, just wanted to apologize.

[Taylor Lewan]

I think I remember that now. Yeah.

[Unknown]

Yeah. But I'm sure you're in a blender. There's a whole bunch of stuff. Right? Yeah, I guess I remember that because I apologize. And you're like, oh, bro, it's all good. Don't worry about it. I'm thinking we are square.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Because George and Christian put the heat on him.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

Big time, dude. Okay, that makes sense. I. I think I remember, but not 100%. So I'm sorry that you apologizing for. It's all good, dude. It's all good.

[Will Compton]

He really took the high road.

[Unknown]

He did the highest.

[Taylor Lewan]

He did, too.

[Unknown]

Is your agent in trouble for making you come on the show?

[Will Compton]

He's like, we'll have a conversation.

[Taylor Lewan]

No, that's all good.

[Unknown]

What was that super bowl like? That's your bowl week.

[Taylor Lewan]

I mean, exactly that, dude. I don't remember a whole lot that week. Just there was so much media and meetings and you're trying to win the biggest game of your life and you're getting asked all these questions about you, your life and everything, and it was just a blur. But when I got to the game, everything felt calm and pretty. Like, all right, I was there, I was present. It was actually one of like the more quiet games I've played in my life too. Like there's not like you're not like at a home site or anything. So just the in between stuff, it just felt sort of quiet. But like, dang, dude, I'm in the Super Bowl. This is crazy. So I don't know, it was a blur. Got to the game, enjoyed it, wish we would have won. But obviously, like, I'll never forget coming that close and then not finishing. So that's just the taste I got in my mouth now. And a lot of us do still.

[Will Compton]

So yeah, we interrupt this episode because we are brought to you by Neutral Vodka Seltzer. Have you tried neutral? If not, you are missing out. Neutral is so much better than any other seltzer that I've tried. It's made with real vodka and real juice and that's what makes it delicious. Neutral comes in a variety of flavors. One of my all time favorites, Black Cherry. They also have new flavors, lime and strawberry. Neutral is the perfect drink to bring when hanging with friends because it is such a crowd pleaser. Whether you're watching at the bar, watching a game at the bar, in the backyard with friends, or at a tail gate, bring Neutral. Again, let me just rip off these flavors. Black Cherry, pineapple, orange, watermelon, lime and strawberry. Neutral. Keep it tasty. Back to the episode.

You guys having a lot of success, like, earlier in your career, in this last year, you guys hit a lot of bumps in the road. What was this past year's experience like compared to. Obviously, obviously, you're used to kind of winning with San Francisco.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, I mean, first two years, it's. That's all I knew even before I got in. You know, we were 4 and 4 at one point, and so I was like, all right, who are we? And then we got on a roll, and towards the end of my rookie year when we won all those games going into the playoffs, I was like, bro, this is what San Francisco football is all about. Like, winning and finding a way. No matter what we can be at any moment in the game, we're going to find a way. And same thing. Sophomore or the second year in the league, get to the Super Bowl. Like, that's just what we knew. And then last year, it's like we sort of gave up some of these games, didn't finish, and then our record started going down and it's like, oh, shoot. And then we get to the end and it's too late to try to get back in for the playoff run. So that's when I was like, all right, this is different. You know, knowing that we got to get ready for like two more. Two or three more games at the end of the season when. And we know we're not getting in the playoffs, like, dude, that's just different. The vibe in the locker room, guys showing up to work, wanting to win and, like, it's just different. And so for as crazy as it sounds, I'm trying to take it and learn from it and make it a good thing, you know, obviously, to stay away from that kind of feeling and all that. But it was definitely like a little wake up call, because teams go through that every year, and I never have up until last year. And guys have told me, teammates have told me, like, bro, Trust me, the worst is, like, you know, you get halfway through the season, you know, you're not making it. Like, try showing up then for meetings and. And holding guys accountable. And, like, that's a dark place to be, you know?

[Unknown]

So I start talking about Cabo and all these things.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. All the trips, thinking about their contracts. Are you going to be here next year? Like, all that stuff, you know, where years pass. It was now, like, we're trying to make it to the Super Bowl. We're right there. We go to the Super Bowl. Everyone's all into the last game. It's just. It's different. I never experienced something like that.

[Will Compton]

So what's the expectation going into this year?

[Taylor Lewan]

I mean, got a bunch of young guys, free agency. We lost some dudes. Greenlaw, Hufanga. Just, like, guys that have been staples for our organization and stuff over the last couple years. So when you lose guys like that, it's like, all right, who's gonna fill their spot? What's that look like? And we're gonna have a young team. You know, we got some young guys that need to step up and. And learn fast, you know?

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

We still got our core guys, though. Bosa McCaffrey, Juice, George, Fred. So, like, we still got the guys to go and do it. It's just going to look a little different. For sure.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. You guys got a squat. That's. You guys have a fun lock. Good.

[Unknown]

L. Good luck. We've had a bunch of guys on Fred. You weren't able to be a part of that Fred episode, but Fred was. Yeah, he was just a homie. Yeah, he was just great to be around. I had something, and then I forgot it. I'm probably still in a blender about Brock hating me internally.

[Will Compton]

You got it, man.

[Unknown]

Oh, Greenlaw. Greenlaw. Towards Achilles in the Super Bowl. Correct. And then he tried to come back. We had the same conversation with George, but I want to get your perspective on it. So the backup was playing, and then Greenlaw started to slowly integrate back in. And then the backup. I don't know why I'm forgetting his name right now.

[Will Compton]

Campbell.

[Unknown]

Campbell. He ends up essentially quitting on the team. And it's cut the next day from your perspective, like, what are you seeing? And how is leadership handling that behind closed doors?

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, I mean, it was tough just because we sort of knew, like, the day or two before, like, he was starting to show some signs of, like, you know, being upset about Greenlock coming back and whatnot, which, I mean, that's football. Like, guys get Upset and whatnot. But to then going out in the field and him just refusing to go in the game, that's. That's when it blew our mind. Even myself, I was a quarterback. Quarterback. I felt it on the sidelines. Sometimes when things happen on defense or special teams, like, we're so locked in our game plan on offense that it's tough to know what's going on with the team and stuff until you get in the locker room, and then all of a sudden, like, we're on the sideline here and like, dude, devondre is refusing to go in, and we're all like, oh, my gosh, like, this is the NFL. I've never even heard it. Like, my whole life in football, there hasn't been a teammate that's refused to play.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, right.

[Taylor Lewan]

This is crazy. And so I didn't even know that you could do that. Like. Like what? And so, I don't know. Leadership. Our whole team, we were hurt, you know, like, we. There's so much pride, man. When you're a Niner or any team like you, you take pride in the boy. Like, going to war with your boys and winning games and going through stuff, and then because one little thing doesn't go your way and a guy who's very well respected came back, came into the picture, and then you refuse to go in for the boys, it's like, you know, come on, are you really one of us? Kind of thing. So it's tough. I don't want to just hate on them and stuff or anything, but it's just. It's a sucky situation overall. But I thought the way our organization, our team, everybody handled it was. Was right.

[Unknown]

So, yeah, it was a media frenzy. A bunch of people trying to get some clickbait on.

[Taylor Lewan]

All for sure. Yeah.

[Unknown]

Did my rookie year, I think, like, the last couple games, we. It was a 2 and 14 season. We sucked. And we had. I won't say his name, but we had a guy. Guy who was an offensive lineman that dressed for the game. And I. I was hurt. I had a high ankle sprain after playing Philly. And so I'm watching him walk on the field, and he takes two steps in the field and, like, feels like the grass, shakes his head no and walks back in the locker room. Yeah, this is like after the 90 minutes, 90 everything. And so we had a backup left tackle, and then we had another backup offensive lineman as well after that. And it was. It was a J.J. watt feast fest. He went nuts. Nuts. There's, like a viral clip of him being like, I don't know who's on the left. I'm here all day. Yeah, I'm here all day. He had like four and a half sacks and tough.

[Taylor Lewan]

Scary.

[Unknown]

It's just. It's just tough when you come from, like, college. I don't know how the nil world is now, but, like, you're in college, like, everyone will die for the team. Like, you guys are all for, like a family. And then you go your first league in the first year in the league, and you're seeing guys that make these business decisions that you're like, I can't believe you're. You're allowing this to affect you. And then you get older and you start to learn more about the game and stuff like that and why guys choose to do certain things. But it is crazy just seeing somebody just quit on the team.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, that's insane, dude.

[Will Compton]

When I was. I was taking over a spot, it was when I was first taking over the starting job and it was mid season, it was more of like this game, it was more of like packages. So like third down, you know, just different packages that I would come in on. And when the starter was down. Yeah, third down, two minutes. Oh, yeah. Come on. This is back in my young prime, but when we were at practice and I was getting implemented in with the starters years, the guy who was the starter ended up just not going into practice and was basically just protesting in the back on not going in. Oh, you want to put them in? Put them in. Then we were in the locker room after practice and this starter, this linebacker, was threatening to fight our position coach. Like they were in each other's face. It was one of the more awkward things just to be a part of.

[Unknown]

And where are you during this?

[Will Compton]

I stand there watching, feeling awkward.

[Unknown]

Feel like you should probably see something because you're the guy they're talking about.

[Will Compton]

Oh, yeah. I mean, everybody knew it was me.

[Unknown]

I know, but you're sitting there and he's like trying to fight the position coach when really he wants to fight your ass.

[Will Compton]

No, he ain't wanting to fight me. He's. You know how it's those hands. No, no, it's not that. Because we were boys, but it's more of like, you know, when you're in the business and coaches can be a little vague or they, you know, some guys, if they know they're going to get benched or they're going to something, a situation is unfolding, they like to know what to expect when coming in the room. So when he's kind of caught off guard by it. It rubbed him the wrong way.

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Will Compton]

So he has more of a problem with not being told or understand what the expectations. I'm sure he was bitter and upset about it, but you know how it's like sometimes, like, coaches aren't the most upfront with where your position is.

[Unknown]

They're not great at being transparent.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

About stuff. Because they. They don't know how to tell you, and they don't know if it's for sure yet. By the time it's for sure, you're. It's Thursday.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

And the game's on on Sunday.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

And it's like, it's a lot of time to get mad. Have you ever had a conversation with Trey about, like, after everything unfolded? Because you talked about, like, you guys are in competition with each other. He handled it with grace, which every pro should. Right. Where you lose a competition or whatever. It's just. That's just part of the game. But did you ever talk to him about, like, emotionally, how he was doing ever?

[Taylor Lewan]

I mean, not. Not so much that. It was just. We've just texted each other, you know, and like, hey, dude, hope you're doing good. Like, randomly, you know, throughout the season, offseason or whatever. And hope you're doing good, this and that. So it's really just been that. We haven't really gotten to the details of, hey, how do you feel with this happening? Or whatever, you know, so we just stay away from that. So. Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Well, I think we have time for, like, one more question. We have our. Our Bud Light question.

[Taylor Lewan]

Question.

[Will Compton]

You know how people would do anything for an ice cold Bud Light? What is something that you would do anything for? Can't say.

[Taylor Lewan]

Family. What's something that I would do anything for? What have guys said on this?

[Unknown]

Steve Bernella said he wanted to make a documentary. Would not tell us the subject of the documentary on camera, but he said, regardless, someday in his life, he wants to make that documentary. George said Super Bowl.

[Will Compton]

Travis said Super Bowl.

[Unknown]

Travis said super bowl, which is a little selfish.

[Will Compton]

Yeah. But you've had three.

[Unknown]

Like.

[Will Compton]

Yeah, that's crazy.

[George Kittle]

Clay said the lottery.

[Unknown]

Clay said. Clay wants more money.

[Will Compton]

Dale Jr. Said nothing.

[Unknown]

Jail said, I got it all. That's crazy, too, though.

[Will Compton]

He. He did in such an elegant way.

[Unknown]

Have you seen the documentary about his dad?

[Taylor Lewan]

Dude, so good.

[Unknown]

I haven't watched it yet, but I've seen a couple trailers. It looks insane. Insane.

[Mitch]

I'm on the last episode.

[Unknown]

Really? It's that good. Tear jerker.

[Taylor Lewan]

No.

[Unknown]

Ah. I'm always looking for a good cr.

[Mitch]

Not. Not necessarily a tear jerker, but it is like, it kind of hearing what Dale Jr. Went through with, like, of how Dale Senior kind of treated the kids. It's like that is kind of like you kind of feel bad for Dale, but it's like just the Earnhardt family.

[Will Compton]

Is just so awesome, so badass.

[Mitch]

So I just love it.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Yeah. So would you do anything for.

[Taylor Lewan]

Gosh.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

I mean, I know my Niners will be listening, so. Gotta go with the Super Bowl.

[Unknown]

I'm glad you said that. Let's have a little. Let's play a little game.

[Taylor Lewan]

All right.

[Unknown]

How willing. How far are you willing to go for a Super Bowl? And there's.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, you gotta give me some comments.

[Unknown]

Wait, so, George, we can come at.

[Will Compton]

This from a lot of different angles.

[Unknown]

A lot of different angles, but we'll start with prison. If someone said, do you have a genie? Popped out of a bottle. Popped out of a Bud Light Light can, and it was a Bud Light genie, and he said, I'll get you a Super bowl this year, but you have to go to prison for a whole year after that, would you still take the Super Bowl? Let's add a layer. So you go to prison for a year. Would you cut off your foot?

[Taylor Lewan]

Cut off my foot after?

[Unknown]

Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

No, I'm gonna be straight.

[Will Compton]

Would you end your. Would you end your career if you ended on a Super bowl this year?

[Unknown]

Keep in mind the guarantee you have on contract. Let's stay. Super bowl was this.

[Taylor Lewan]

Oh, dude.

[Will Compton]

If you're saying that 2010, me.

[Taylor Lewan]

Wow.

[Will Compton]

What he said about the career thing. Would you end your career?

[Unknown]

He didn't answer that question.

[Taylor Lewan]

Dude, I don't want to end my career because we can go win more. You know, like, why would I end the career just for one more when we could win multiple Think.

[Will Compton]

But you're guaranteed to win this year, you being the super bowl mvp, All Pro, dude. But your career is done after that. Or you can try to chase the.

[Taylor Lewan]

Super bowl for the rest of your career. Don't try to chase like.

[Will Compton]

Well, that's what you're. That's what you'll be doing. You can't sit here and guarantee you're gonna have a Super Bowl.

[Taylor Lewan]

What did other guys say? I actually, I'm curious.

[Unknown]

This podcast really gained its footing when Mike Vrabel said he'd cut his piece off for a Super Bowl.

[Taylor Lewan]

Are you serious?

[Will Compton]

Yeah, he said he cut it off.

[Unknown]

Head coach of New England Patriots.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah.

[Unknown]

Mike vrabel been married 13 years. I'd say. Yeah.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

But he's also, like, he's not playing. I feel like as a player, I feel like I can make it.

[Unknown]

He did mention that he won one as a player.

[Taylor Lewan]

He wouldn't.

[Unknown]

He. He won with the Patriots when he played.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Unknown]

If you ever meet Mike Vrabel, you'll know how many years he played in the league.

[Taylor Lewan]

Yeah. No, I would go to prison for a year. Preferably not under the situation of whatever you said, but I would go to prison. Prison for a year. Yes. I don't want to cut off any limbs because after that year, I'd like to get back and hopefully go chase more finger.

[Unknown]

What about finger?

[Will Compton]

How about this?

[Taylor Lewan]

I can go left. Left hand. For sure. Throughout your hand in your career, left finger. One of these in your career.

[Will Compton]

You can win one Super bowl with the 49ers or you can win three with the Seattle Seahawks.

[Unknown]

Bro, that is the best trap question.

[Taylor Lewan]

That is the worst.

[Unknown]

Dude, that is.

[Taylor Lewan]

No, I mean, bro, yeah.

[Will Compton]

You want to win one Super Bowl. You want to be remembered for one.

[Taylor Lewan]

Really?

[Will Compton]

Dude, shut up.

[Taylor Lewan]

Don't try to get me, dude, no, we're not doing that. Bang, bang all the way, dude.

[Unknown]

Bang, bang all the way. What?

[Will Compton]

That was a solid little change of pace.

[Unknown]

That was a nice change of pace.

[Will Compton]

Because honestly, you're being real. You went with three, right?

[Unknown]

He would for sure. But also respect, he's polished.

[Will Compton]

You know what? He might be on something though, because I'd rather win one Natty with Nebraska than three with the Iowa Hawkeyes.

[Taylor Lewan]

Dude. Yeah. Come on.

[Will Compton]

Yeah.

[Taylor Lewan]

Crazy. Are we boys or you just trying to trap me, bro, that's him. Like, what we doing?

[Unknown]

I've done my.

[Will Compton]

I like to have fun. I like to have good, clean fun on this podcast.

[Taylor Lewan]

I love it. I respect it.

[Will Compton]

I stumbled.

[Unknown]

I stumbled before, you know when? Let's just say right now the 49ers no longer exist. Franchise. What's one team you want to play for? 49ers don't exist.

[Will Compton]
