Mitch
D' Angelo Williams? Giannis.

Coop
I might need to Look.
Garrett
I'm not 34.
JP
34.
Mitch
As you guys can tell, JP is knocking the rust off and is in the producer game because Matt Fingers aren't.
Garrett
Working as well as they used to.
Mitch
Matt is.
JP
I don't love him right now.
Coop
Shaq did wear 34.
JP
What?
Garrett
Shaq wore it all, man.
JP
Why did I think he was 32?
Coop
I think he did both.
JP
Well, you can't do both.
Coop
He did both at the same time.
Mitch
Angela Williams, 34.
JP
Dang.
Mitch
Come on.
Coop
Charles Barkley.
JP
Chuck.
Mitch
What about Malone?
JP
Carl.
Coop
I can't believe I didn't say Nolan Ryan. Nolan Ryan. I can't believe I forgot about him.
JP
He's downstairs.
Coop
I know.
JP
Damn.
Garrett
I think somebody's like, Walter. Walter Payton might be, like, rubbing their mic or something.
JP
Hello?
Garrett
Hello? I just will hear, like, a thing. I don't know.
Gabe
It could have been me. My hand was, like, pretty close to the.
Garrett
Yeah.
Gabe
So I'll keep.
Garrett
Just something to be mindful of.
Gabe
Something mindful.
JP
We need to know because I think.
Mitch
I think everything's fine.
JP
Yeah.
Mitch
Because every time, every once in a while, I don't know if the. The audience hears, but you'll hear some knocking and stuff. Just because people are just.
Coop
Yeah, I'm guilty of that.
JP
Oh, I'm talking about. Because this is the stuff we're going to be taking with us next week.
Mitch
Yeah, we will be at the super bowl next week. Unfortunately, Coop.
Coop
I'll be holding it down. Bus and B team holding it down.
JP
I don't like that.
Mitch
I kind of think it's fire and all.
Coop
I get it though.
Mitch
Coop is the. The fifth person here. Like so Coop is technically in charge when we are back because.
Coop
Oh, and I was like, yeah, man.
JP
No cook work series.
Gabe
Right.
Coop
Though it technically does work for us.
Mitch
No, you. You are the high. Like the highest in chain of command. You are in charge.
Gabe
Do not.
Coop
Let's go.
JP
You're next up, bro.
Mitch
What is the.
Coop
I'm gonna run this.
Mitch
What's the first thing going to be implemented?
Coop
Curfew.
JP
No curfew. But if you're. If you miss the bus at 8am you're not playing.
Coop
I'll just have rules for Matt. Only for Matt.
JP
Everyone should have to eat every day.
Mitch
You should like. You should make something like every day.
Coop
Field trips to mini mart that they.
Mitch
Have to do and like just send.
Coop
It in the chat or something that actually color.
JP
Hey, you should make it more color like a Monday's blue, bro.
Mitch
If you.
Coop
If I'm start cooking ideas. But the whole time we'll be. We'll be working back here. We got stuff to do.
Mitch
What would be funny is if the.
JP
For like just one day the switch.
Mitch
Gonna be in here like Monday morning. Like you get in here like before everybody else and like you're just waiting. You're late.
Coop
I just actually wear a suit.
JP
For real.
Mitch
That would be funny.
Gabe
I think what you also should do not to throw additional work onto your plate, but it'd be worthy of the cause. Create a graphic and it's a schedule Monday through Friday and you can be like Monday blue day. And then we can throw it up inside the bus and bus and collab and if they don't see it then.
Coop
Oh, they're more carousels like the made bed thread to make sure everyone's doing their. They're part.
JP
I do love the dude. The bed thread geeked me because when we put it on Instagram, I just mindlessly scrolling. I was like, man, I've.
Coop
Why.
JP
Why do I know what this bedroom is?
Mitch
It was my bad.
JP
Our thread. I was like, what the. I think that room's on Instagram.
Coop
We gotta do that more.
Mitch
Should we make that like a Every Friday shoes of the day or a different type of thread?
Coop
Something like that. That was fun to do.
JP
Kotds.
Coop
I got the same shoes every day.
JP
Everyone got to do a get ready with me video one day.
Garrett
Yeah, that'll be a good one.
JP
That would be funny as bro.
Gabe
Yeah.
JP
But on top of the. Or back to the. You would being in charge next week. The videos, you know like when you set up like the hidden camera and it's like showing what time people arrive to work.
Garrett
Yes.
JP
That's also a funny one.
Mitch
Or you could like, you could.
JP
Because if you get demon is like the second to last person, it's over.
Mitch
You could also like, I mean again, not to put more work on your plate, but make it.
JP
We got a couple ideas for you.
Coop
This is, it's not put work. This is brainstorming.
Mitch
Yeah. Yeah. Just make a graphic every like of when each person showed up every day.
Gabe
Trying to cook people. Really?
JP
Yeah. We're here to out everyone.
Coop
Hey, everyone who's left here just like hates me forever just because of how I handled Super Bowl. Y' all were all having fun. I was running this place like a dictatorship.
JP
Should we, should we talk about. I don't like the term B team.
Mitch
I don't like it either.
JP
All right. Where did that. Did you have you got. You guys talk about this?
Coop
Obviously I think I liked it because I coined it.
JP
I changed my opinion.
Coop
I. It was definitely.
Mitch
It said. It almost sounds self deprecating, but like that's.
Coop
I guess, I guess it does.
JP
What's the B stand for?
Mitch
Big body.
Coop
Yeah.
JP
Big Poppy.
Coop
I might just stick with that one. I don't even know how to like explain myself.
JP
You're right.
Coop
Like, it really is just like part.
JP
Of me is because like I want to be a part of that.
Coop
Yeah.
JP
But I also want you to be a part of.
Gabe
I think you're creating something special.
JP
The whole team.
Coop
This has been around for over a year because I, I, this is the.
Gabe
First I've heard about. I mean like, I heard the term but I didn't know I've said it.
Coop
It started in the the Tennessee Bama game last season. Like last, last season when the Last Supper. The Last Supper. That Outback steakhouse or Texas roadhouse trip we did. And it was, I was like, this is like the bus and me team right here. Because it was just me, Jared, I think Sherm was there. Voldemort, some other people. Joe.
Gabe
Joe.
Coop
Joe was there. Joe was a vibe.
JP
Joe.
Coop
Yeah. He went. Yeah. He was there, and Alex was there.
JP
And it really got the full effect. He really did well.
Coop
And also, like, the game, that whole day, we were the only ones. I mean, Mitch was for a little bit up in the stands, and y' all were, like, down on the field.
Garrett
Yeah.
Coop
Which is fine. Like, that sounded like bitching. That wasn't bitching at all. I'm just telling the story.
Mitch
That's just what it was.
Coop
That's just how. That's just how it was.
JP
Damn, Y' all seats were fire, though.
Mitch
Oh, yeah, they were good seats.
JP
My ears were rattling up there, right under the shade.
Coop
Yeah, no, those seats. I wasn't bitching. Those seats were fire.
Mitch
Porter was trying to just get hammered the whole time.
Gabe
Dude, he deserved that. Alex Porter, he deserved to get hangry.
Mitch
That's not, like, a knock on him.
Gabe
No, I know, but I'm just trying to always. You know, I brought him up.
Coop
That was. That was everyone's first.
Gabe
Come on.
Coop
That was everyone's first time meeting Alex. That's my only time being Alex.
Garrett
I still haven't met him, really, which.
JP
Is crazy, because you weren't there.
Gabe
He's a loose man. He's like. He's, like, funny, but like a cat that you'd find in the mountains. He sees you, but you don't see him that much.
Mitch
He would, like, hit on or me and my, like. Like, I think he was behind us.
JP
Oh, he was.
Coop
He was going crazy.
Mitch
Hey, like, can I go get a beer or something? I'm like, yeah, bro. This is a game. Go have fun. Like.
JP
Yeah.
Coop
Oh, I thought you were gonna say. Because, like, he's a balls fan. He was.
Mitch
He was a mat.
Coop
He, like, he was grabbing me and shaking me every big moment, and he's like, I'm sorry, man. I'm sorry. I'm just excited. I'm like, you're good, man.
Mitch
Then weren't we sitting next to each other?
JP
And you're, like, crazy, right?
Coop
Yeah.
JP
He was gonna get him here on. On the inside.
Gabe
Oh, dude, that would actually be. That would be a good time. I bet he'd make the trip down. He likes coming to Nashville. He almost moved.
JP
Not far.
Gabe
No.
Coop
And now he's not even in the T. He's not even in the meetings anymore.
Gabe
Yeah, we used to see.
Coop
We used to see his face once a week.
JP
This is. He just found out he's not in the meetings anymore.
Garrett
There's space. Alex Porter might be the most alpha of the whole crew, how he's handled everything. Never at the meeting. He just Denies moving to Nashville.
Gabe
Denied the full time.
Coop
He really is working in the shadows.
Mitch
Wait, so he was supposed to have Malone? Matt's job?
Gabe
No, it was kind of.
Coop
He was.
Gabe
Yeah, it was Jared's job.
JP
That's right.
Gabe
And then we hired Jared as more of, like, a flex position.
JP
We needed a ball number in the shop.
Gabe
Yeah. And. And Porter is a ball knower.
Garrett
He is.
Gabe
Yeah. Yeah. Poor. That's why I was stoked for him to come.
JP
But he's good across, like, almost all sports, too.
Gabe
Yeah. He's a big hockey guy as well.
Mitch
Big sports guy.
Gabe
But he's tapped in. He knows. He knows the Internet, which is what we need in, in my lane. So the kid gets the voice.
JP
How old is Porter?
Gabe
I want to say he's like two or three years younger than us, but I'm probably.
JP
Yeah.
Gabe
I still want to ask who Joe was, because I, I, I didn't want to be that guy. 30th time in a. Joe.
Mitch
Joe was the fan that won the Black Friday thing.
Gabe
Okay, gotcha.
Coop
Huge Notre Dame fan, by the way.
JP
Works for us.
Gabe
I was like, I don't remember. I was like, is there.
Coop
I. Dude, he. His love for Notre Dame. I respect it because we were at, I think it was a top 10 matchup. The Bama Tennessee game. I mean, it was a big game, obviously.
JP
Yeah.
Coop
And he was watching Notre Dame, like Georgia. It was like, yeah, like Boston. He was watching Notre Dame and they were up like 40, and he just locked in.
Gabe
Yeah.
Mitch
It's like, bro, we have an all time game going on. Or he's like, ah, go Irish.
Coop
But like, I get it.
JP
Love that. Love it, love that for him.
Coop
Yeah.
JP
We said he's in Florida. Yeah.
Coop
Yeah, he's a good Tampa.
JP
What a beast, bro.
Mitch
Yeah. I felt bad for him that trip when we were.
Coop
We could have, we could have done it better for him, but he was.
Mitch
No, no one person could have done it better for him. But yeah.
JP
All right. Mitch has the floor.
Gabe
Drop the meme.
Mitch
The. But we were waiting for Taylor because he was coming from.
Coop
Oh, I forgot about that.
Mitch
Where was he coming from?
JP
Vegas or Canada?
Gabe
I think it was Canada.
Coop
It was Canada.
JP
Or Arizona.
Gabe
I've been driving.
JP
It was Arizona.
Gabe
When he, like, broke down, it was Arizona.
Mitch
Yeah, we were. Yeah, yeah. We were waiting for him to get to the stadium. And like, me, Voldemort and Joe stayed out, stayed outside.
Gabe
We're really sticking with that.
Mitch
Coop coined it.
Coop
Yeah.
JP
If Coop coined something, it sticks.
Gabe
The Coop coin.
JP
Except for good. No Mini Mart. Yeah.
Coop
But yeah, I didn't coin that, but.
Mitch
Great podcasting going on right now.
Coop
I thought you were gonna finish.
Mitch
I was gonna say Joe was, like, stuck outside as we're waiting for Taylor.
Coop
Yeah, he didn't get to meet Taylor.
Mitch
No, he did.
JP
Oh, he did.
Mitch
But, like, also, like, Joe should have gone into the game and experienced pregame because we. By the time we got to the seats, like, the game was kicking off or it already kicked off.
Coop
So I just swam to our.
JP
Yeah, he could have blogged for me. That would have been sick. I would have switched with Joe.
Garrett
The vlog curse could have been lifted.
JP
That's where it started.
Garrett
Yeah.
Mitch
Is that really when it started?
JP
Yeah. Yeah.
Garrett
Real warrior. So what everybody do on their snow day?
JP
Oh, yeah, it snowed.
Gabe
We can dive into that more or less a snow than ice, but, I mean, we got one solid day where it felt like it was a snow day, and then it turned into Armageddon. Here in Nashville, for those not familiar with what's been going on in the news, Nashville was supposed to have a historic snow day. They were saying anywhere from 18 to 24 inches. Weather model shifts. It goes north by 200 miles, which then puts us in the ice field, factoring area, and we got ice. It was. I know G can attest to his. Guys who've lived here our whole lives, never seen anything like this. I would assume everyone in this room, whether you lived up in the north or down. I don't know if you've seen ice storms like that. There's a new thing. Trees are. Are exploding, as they say. It was eerie. Everything, every minuscule branch you would see on a tree was covered in about a quarter inch of ice. Just around. All the trees in my yard are parallel or uprooted, except the magnolia tree. It stood strong. I did lose probably about 30% of the tree up in the top of it. Maybe not that much, but it's still standing.
JP
It is crazy how fast it went from like, oh, this is sick snows happening in the middle of the day on Saturday to immediate ice.
Gabe
I mean, me and Garrett, we were out with three or four of our friends pretty much the whole day in our neighborhood running around. And then we all went back to my house. We watched the Alabama Tennessee basketball game. We watched the Alex Honold climbing event, and then we also watched UFC. All three. Great stuff. After that, around like 11:30pm it's like it's snowing outside. What are you gonna do? You're gonna go outside, walk around a little bit? So we. We're kind Of. And within about the hour we were outside the last 15 minutes, you felt the weather shift from snow to rain. And yeah, it was. It was miserable. It was cold as. But it was really fun up to that point. Garrett, he lives at the bottom of the hill that my house sits on, essentially. And Garrett just wrote a sled down and was like, I'll just bring this sled back. I'm like, absolutely.
JP
Had to do it two days in a row.
Gabe
It's a big hill too. So, like, we watched him sled down for probably 25, 30 seconds, where he is literally stopped to be moving.
JP
Well, the next night. Well, yeah. So after the UFC fight, we all kind of went outside and that's when it was. Everything had that like ice over crunch and it was so bright out. We're all like kind of geeking out and we're like, let's go hit this hill. And Chevy did it first and took off. Ran back up the hill.
Coop
Yeah.
JP
But the next.
Gabe
Twice, actually the next night when it.
JP
Like froze over again and was truly just ice, I wouldn't be surprised If I hit 20 miles an hour, bro. Flying, cooking. And got in like a groove of where a tire kind of dug a little bit. So I knew I wasn't like veering out.
Garrett
It was just think about how fast you were going. And there's real. College athletes are running 20 miles per hour on game day.
JP
Offensive lineman almost running that fast.
Garrett
Yeah.
JP
But it was fun.
Coop
That's why I didn't make it.
JP
That. Yeah, sledding down the hill was fun. I got to bring back my ride. Would you guess Jack's ride.
Mitch
I didn't hit any. Hit any sledding. We, me, Fallon, Gabe went to the prez game.
JP
Oh, midday.
Mitch
Because it was at shifted. It was at 2. Got bumped up to 12:30 because of the weather, but so we bought tickets. Like about like $50 tickets. And then we got there and they were like, you can sit wherever you want because of the weather and people not being able to make it. But then. Then we were like, fuck, dude, we should have just bought the $18 tickets then. Like, save some money. But we were like, we had like, really good seats on the ice. They ended up losing. But when we were walking down there, it was like the perfect kind of snow. Like, dude, this is sick. Like, this is a perfect day to kind of get after it a little bit, have like a bit. Two beers like at the game. Then we come out and that. And it's like just that crappy rain.
JP
Yeah.
Mitch
Just completely killed the bot turn quick.
Garrett
Y' all hit Tootsies, though, right? Was that where you were? Yeah, we were.
Mitch
We were at Tootsies for, like, an hour, hour and a half. And, like, it was funny, right? When you walked in, there was, like, obviously, like, out of towners. They would just get super excited anytime somebody walked in and made, like, a human tunnel like we do for Roo every once in a while. And, like, we just get super, like, give high fives and everybody. But, like, I just wasn't really feeling it. We're feeling it because the snow was done. I'm like, this is kind of boring now. I was just looking forward to, like, snow drinking, and it just stopped right we there.
Garrett
There was no riding the ship on. You could have made good on the laying in the snow and drinking Gatorade had we been given proper snow. Would have been a piece of redemption.
JP
Amen.
Mitch
Yeah. I still don't understand the hate that that got, but I think. I think.
JP
Were you saying the visual that I had in my head?
Mitch
But you were saying it. And, like, for you guys down south, like, you're. You just. You're used to, like, 2 to 3 inches of snow. Like, up in, like, the northeast, we'll get the little 7 to 8 to 10 inches of snow. So, like, enough for you to kind of, like, sit down and, like.
Gabe
We'Ve laid in snow.
JP
I've been like, breck, bro, We.
Gabe
We get decent snow. What? Like when we were in fifth grade, we got 10 inches of snow that's in that. What's that to you?
Mitch
That's casual.
Coop
That's a Tuesday.
Mitch
But, like, that's the type of snow where you. You literally just sit down, pour some Gatorade, and just start licking away.
Gabe
Licking away, man, you're making. You're not even using your hands. You're just in there.
Mitch
No, because then you. Because then you just get. You get Gatorade all over your hand. You just like.
Gabe
I mean, yeah, that's fair.
JP
You don't have gloves on.

Mitch
A dog eating out of.
Gabe

JP
A out of a bottle grade salad.
Gabe
And then you got the snow packed on the glove. Then you just.
Mitch
Because the Gatorade. The Gatorade will melt the snow.
Gabe
Sure.
Mitch
So that's why you pull to the ground and then like it'll like freeze it immediately.
Gabe
Give us a visual demonstration of what it looks like when you hear what it looks like. No, I just need to know.
JP
I think we all know what it looks like.
Mitch
You're pouring it and you're just like, yeah.
Gabe
Oh my God.
Garrett
Do it one more time. I wasn't on your camera. You.
Mitch
Pour it in the snow and you just get in there and you're.
Garrett
Yeah.
Gabe
And for Those watching on YouTube, yes, Mitch does have an impressive tongue. It looks, it's massive.
Garrett
We'd all be slurping Gatorade like that.
Gabe
Too if you had that kind of problem. You're using it.
Coop
We just don't get it.
Mitch
Yeah, you just don't get the vision.
Gabe
What about you guys? Did y' all have any snow day activities worth worthwhile?
Garrett
Man, I, I, I went out there, made the horrible mistake of I bought a cheap sled last year and then when I brought it out and it's been outside all Year I brought it out to the hill that I. That I took my first hill on last year. I want to hit the same hill for the first run of the year, the annual hill. Annual hill. I go get my running start. I jump sled, cracks, breaks. I still rode it out. Just a slow, gentle decline. But that was the only sledding I got done. But I love walking around, even just during the. During the snow. It's freezing. Sucks, but it's something enjoyable about. But all I pretty much did was walk around.
Mitch
Your penguin video.
Garrett
Yeah, the penguin video. I was proud of that video. I wanted to. My hands were freezing.
Mitch
Oh.
Garrett
Trying to fly it because I. My. One of my gloves is too big, so I can't get my dexterity going. So I take my gloves off. Hands were freezing.
JP
But shout out to the. To the crew.
Mitch
Yeah, the squad.
Garrett
They were all about. I was like, I can do this by myself because I have the drone. I could just fly it. They're like, no, no, we want to be in it. The video is funny. I was like, man, y' all just elevated this so much.
Mitch
And, like, I know what road you're on. And just walking, like, in the middle of that road just up there is so funny.
Garrett
Cop drove by and didn't even swerve out the way. It wasn't in the video, but I watched it back, and I'm just thinking, dude, what. This is why you get the reputation you do on the Internet.
JP
Stuff like this.
Coop
White knuckling the steering wheel.
Garrett
Yeah, bro, but that was mine. Texacoop called Coop when I was outside.
JP
Yeah, we.
Coop
We had just gone in.
JP
We left you on red.
Mitch
Talk about a good sledding hill from him to get from his apartment to yours.
Garrett
Dude, they do such a good job clearing it. You can never sled it.
Mitch
Damn.
Coop
We saw two trucks, like, clearing the road. Me and Addie went on a walk and two trucks, like, while we were walking, clearing it out. And we got out when the snow was, like, fairly decent. Mid midday Saturday. By the time we were walking back in, that's when it started, like, getting real cold. And Addie's from Florida, so she really want to get out in the snow. And I was hoping we would get out there and, like, the match.
JP
For all that.
Coop
Didn't watch last week. I'm not a big fan of snow. But we got out there, and from my, like, point of view in the apartment, I looked out. I can only see the courtyard. I don't have, like, a road view. And it was just white down there. And and, like, obviously that's a controlled little area. I'm like, maybe it's just white everywhere. And it was snowing heavy. And we get out there and the roads are just brown and just muddy. And we still got a good walk in the nations, but that's, like, about all we did Saturday. And then obviously, like, y' all know, it got worse. By Monday, I was actually losing my mind. It's funny because, like, I. I don't go out much. I had to get out. We went to 51st Deli for fun.
JP
Good drink selection.
Coop
We tried going on another walk, and we did. But I saw signs of life at 51st. And I'm like, we're gotta go eat lunch at 4:00'.
JP
Clock. Yeah, you gotta.
Garrett
That's dinner reservation.
Coop
Before I lose my mind.
Mitch
Y' all really sleeping on the 4:00pm dinner resi.
JP
Danny.
Mitch
Hey, Danny.
Coop
Rezi.
Gabe
I almost said I had a. I had a 515 one this past week because two of our friends have a baby, and so they're like, you gotta just, you know, you got to understand, we're on different scheduling. No, it was great. But, I mean, I didn't go to. It wasn't like we had a reservation. We went to redheaded stranger in East. Like, you just pull up to the counter.
Mitch
That place rips.
Gabe
Yeah, I know.
JP
I missed that place.
Gabe
Great burger. Great burger. If you never had it there, I always get.
Garrett
Dude.
JP
What?
Garrett
Nashville doesn't really have any good food. What are you talking about?
JP
You're right.
Gabe
I don't know if you've seen any of the drama going on in the shop this week, but Taylor Lawan, yet again with just the cold take after cold take. He's talking about how Nashville doesn't have good Mexican food because he's from Arizona. And obviously Arizona and the west coast is going to outrank Nashville Mexican food. But the main issue is that this guy acts like he's out in the streets ordering chips in queso, getting in there, waiting in line. This motherfucker's got a private chef. He's at home, he's warm, he's got generators. He's got a guy at his house Monday through Friday making every meal. He doesn't go out, so I don't think his opinion is valid.
Mitch
When do you think the last time he went out to dinner with his family was?
Garrett
Oh, good question.
Coop
That is a good question.
Gabe
I mean, definitely 2025, but I mean, probably before the football season.
Garrett
I don't know if he did go outside 2025.
Gabe
I mean, more Credit to him, like, for him. That's awesome. He has a private chef. Jason is the man. And he makes incredible.
Mitch
He makes great food.
Gabe
So if you've eaten Jason's cooking, you'd understand why there's no need to go out to Mexican restaurant.
JP
I will say I've had a lot of good Mexican food on a hill.
Coop
I like Mexican food is my favorite type of food. And obviously I've had a lot of good. Being from Texas, I've never had a problem with Nashville's Mexican food. I like.
JP
Thank you.
Gabe
I like to have a good representation of Tex Mex. Like that.
Coop
It's Tex Mex here is good. Like it's really good.
JP
Do you have a favorite stamp?
Coop
Super Rica is my favorite. Or. Well, I mean, super good here. I know there's one here, one in Atlanta, but I love that it's really good. That's almost exactly what you'll find like restaurants like that in Texas. Like, that's really close. And then. I mean, I'm just a sucker for chewies. Sherm was saying it earlier, like, all the. All the good, like Mexican chains here are like chews.
JP
Yeah, we got the good ones.
Gabe
The jalapeno.
JP
If it's a chain, we got the good chains.
Coop
The good, like local.
JP
Yeah.
Mitch
What's that place in midtown?
JP
Torchy's. Torchies.
Garrett
But Chewy, that's on the corner thing.
Coop
Like there is a choosing no.
Mitch
1. Like where like Odyssey and stuff is on your right. And like if you go on left, like that's like whatever.
Gabe
21St, like towards downtown. Downtown.
Mitch
I'm pretty sure, like it's on the same road as Odie's. But it's not torches. But it's like on the right.
JP
It's on a corner. This kind of look like it has like a carport, like pull in thing kind of. That's chewy.
Gabe
There is a cheese right. Right next to Red Door.
Mitch
No, I wouldn't know.
Coop
It's called.
Mitch
It's like further down. It's like closer towards like where Kung Fu used to be.
Gabe
There's like a taco spot, but it's not. Like I said, I've had good Taco Bell. That taco or something. That's not.
Mitch
No, I know, I know it may not be there, but I feel like I've walked by like a Mexican spot that looks kind of fire.
Garrett
We haven't even mentioned Satco.
Gabe
Yeah, Satco is.
Coop
That goes great.
JP
Oh gee.
Gabe
I put Sacco in like a different lane than I would like a Suprica and Stuff, Right.
JP
For sure.
Coop
I've been in a lot of other places where I'm just like, their Mexican food is actual trash. It's not here.
Gabe
Yeah, I feel like it's hard to find a poor, bad. Yeah. Poor Mexican spot in Nashville. But I. Let's go around. I want everyone to name. Like if you're gonna go in and a hostess sits you at a Mexican restaurant, where are you taking us?
Coop
Hosto. Where?
JP
Say that again.
Gabe
If you go to a met like you're. It's a sit down Mexican restaurant. Not a satco. Not like a burrito place.
Mitch
Not like a redheaded.
Gabe
Not like a redheaded. It's got to be like a host.
JP
You get seated with the waiter and.
Gabe
Then you have a waiter. Yeah. In Nashville.
Mitch
You're asking the wrong guy.
JP
I think I have one.
Coop
I said chewy, that's fine.
Garrett
Love it.
Coop
Not really, though. Let me think.
JP
Mine is going to be Cinco.
Gabe
What location? Because for the locals I think that that's important.
JP
I mean for the locals I would pick the old one that used to be in Coming station.
Gabe
Yeah, that was fun.
JP
But that one's gone. So I'd pick the one in East. Yeah, it's not my favorite environment, but I would pick that one. The. The funnest environment and the one that is the most geeky to me is the one in Brentwood.
Gabe
The Burl one is.
JP
It's my favorite.
Gabe
And I swear I think the quality of their food is better. Maybe that's probably. Yeah, exactly. But I do like the Brentwood location for Cinco de Mayo.
Mitch
Oh, that's what that is.
Gabe
I'll say. I know what mine is.
Coop
Is that what you're talking about?
Mitch
Yeah.
Gabe
What? Sacco?
Mitch
Yeah, yeah, that's the same place.
JP
Yeah, yeah. San Antonio Taco. Yeah.
Garrett
Good wings. Slept on wings.
JP
Right? That's what I was gonna say. Yeah. Yeah, I would pick a Cinco. I'm. I just like a classic. Just give me a freaking thing of queso. Let me get. Just like there's different Mexican places depending on what I'd order. But if I'm gonna take the. The gang, it's a cinco.
Coop
If they have good queso, they have good food. That's like every. Every Mexican restaurant. If they have good chips and like salsa and chips and queso, you can just tell.
Mitch
I found two places. San Anjo or Federales.
JP
Okay.
Coop
So I've been to Federal.
Gabe
It's a little more bougie. Mexico.
Mitch
Well, Federales is directly like damn near.
Gabe
Directly across from my Federales has awesome food.
JP
Yeah, I do like their food.
Gabe
I think their food's really good for like a.
JP
It's.
Gabe
I went there as like a bar atmosphere and didn't eat until probably the third or fourth time I was there.
JP
And I was surprised me.
Mitch
For whatever reason, like Brooke and I felt the same way because we had it Saturday night for whatever. For whatever reason right after, like my. We just don't feel good. Like, just feel like bloated and kind of. And I don't know if that's just because it's Mexican or if it's something at Federales, but San Ano is fire too. They have good tequila. Have you guys done. Have you done the ice shot at Federales?
Gabe
Yeah, I have kind of fire. Yeah, it's a fun one. If you. If you're not familiar with this, they give you a shot glass that's molded out of ice. You take tequila shot and then you throw it at this big bell. You just try and ring it. It's fun. Definitely sells shots.
JP
Yeah.
Gabe
If I'm cooking mine, I'm going. I would normally do Cinco de Mayo. It's kind of raised me. My family and I went there on Christmas Eve like four years in a row, which is just hilarious to get. Sit down Mexican the night before Jesus and JP's birthday.
Garrett
Let's go.
Gabe
But my, my new one these days is not far from here on 8th Avenue. It's cilantro. And it used to be. It's worth going, man. They have a diverse menu that's not overwhelming. And the atmosphere in there is great. They also have an awesome little sit down bar if you just want to go and belly up. But yeah, really enjoy cilantro. It's probably my number one. Has to be in Nashville right now. And the price point is you can't beat it.
Garrett
Am I up? Are you up?
Coop
I'll go. My. I mean, my answer's gonna be basic and it's purely based on like this scenario. I've actually, like, this is where I. I do this every time I have someone visit me. I just go to Super Rica and we've already talked about it. I've like camp and all. Like our boys for his bachelor party. Went there. My parents came down. Went there. I've been there. My friend Ryan came to town. We went there. Like, I just take.
JP
I'm like, all right, it's a good spot.
Coop
They're normally coming from Texas. I'm like, there's good text Mex here.
JP
Wish it was in a different location.
Garrett
Yeah, I've never been. Yeah.
Coop
It's a little jam back there.
Gabe
Yeah. Kind of like peg leg porker. Yeah, exactly. Iberian pig. I. I like Suprica for what you're saying as well, because you could bring someone like your parents, and it's a.
Coop
Nice little vibe in there.
Gabe
It's like a good atmosphere. It's nice. It's more upscale Mexican, so, like, you can kind of.
Garrett
Yeah.
Coop
And I don't go there all the time, so it's still like a good experience. Not like I'm going there. Like, I go to Chewy's every week there. Oh, my God.
Mitch
Chewy's every week.
JP
While JP goes. Not really. I'll look at the name of the. Which other place I got.
Garrett
I got two if I'm going number one. El Fuego. Love El Fuego. The vibes when it's warm outside, they have the huge outdoor seating area, great staff. And then I also love Las Palmas, the LP special.
JP
That's why I was just telling Jack earlier. I was like, cilantro's there on eighth. But you can't forget about Las Palmas up in the corner by Kroger up there.
Garrett
Dude, it's so good.
Gabe
There's also Las Palmas, like, down off of Charlotte.
Garrett
Yep.
Gabe
Yeah, it's hidden. I tried to go to that location the other night on Sunday when kind of like only Mexican restaurants and pretty much Asian cuisine is open because of the ice storm. An hour long wait. Couldn't even do it.
JP
There's a. A spot in Green Hills, El Palinque. It's like in a strip mall type building. If you didn't know I was there, you would miss it. But that was a spot for, like, my family growing up, that it was like you trying to go get some, like, chips in queso. Like, that was kind of like the secret one we go to because, like, growing up, obviously. Mazalon. Yeah, but that place would be packed.
Gabe
OG hitter.
JP
And then we got Cinco. But El Palinque in Green Hills, if you're in Nashville, go check it out. It's just your classic. Like, it's gonna be what you need it to be. Tons of queso, tons of salsa chips. Like, you're in and out too. It's so fast. They also have the good mints on the way out.
Garrett
Oh, dude. The Mexican restaurants hit with the little. With the jar outside on the way out, grabbing whether it's a mint or whatever.
JP
Five pack of gum.
Podcast Advertiser
That's like the Chewies or whatever they are.
Mitch
If you go to any of those Restaurants tell me it's not the best thing you.
JP
Dude, I need some Mexican food now.
Gabe
I will do it for dinner. For vibes. El Fuego probably is the best vibes you can find in Nashville. For Mexican.
JP
So good they had to get a bigger spot.
Garrett
Fun fact, the first time I ever went there was with Donnie and it was like a large men's group. And at the end when the checks came, shout out Sam Hunt. He picked up the tab without telling anybody. Also nuts to be at dinner with Sam Hunt because I'm a big Sam Hunt fan. Didn't know he was going to be there. And he picked up the tab without ever saying a word. And I was just like, man, that's.
JP
Such a really boss move.
Garrett
I know.
JP
Did the check ever come to the table? No, that's the most boss. You can find a way to have it taken care of.
Mitch
I've done that one time and it was when we went to. I went to when I was at Brooks visiting and I like, we went to. That was when we went to Oxnard or Oxnard, however you pronounce it. And like they had rented out the beach house. Like, like we went out to dinner a couple times. I'm like, all right, I need to. So like, I snuck away to the back.
Garrett
I was gonna say, if Matt was here, this is what he would have hit.
Mitch
But like, I like snuck to the bathroom and I had like cash on me. So I was like, hey, can I. We were sitting outside and like we had to go inside to go to the bathroom. Got it done. And then they're, they're like, I guess we're waiting for the check. And I'm like, I got it. Her dad, like, he was awesome. Shout out to him.

And like, I just felt like it, dude.
JP
I mean, have like the biggest smile on your face.
Mitch
Yeah. Internally I was like trying to like keep it in.
JP
Right?
Mitch
But I like outside, I was like, yeah, like, no, thank you guys.
JP
Don't worry, I took care of it.
Garrett
And straight cash too.
Mitch
Yeah, like, thank you guys for getting everything for like the taking, taking us out to dinner, the beach house, everything.
Garrett
Like, thank you because I'm a hustler, baby.
Gabe
If you don't have the bread to cover a dinner and you're wondering what can I do to kind of get one up on. On an event or some friends, just tell the waitress when she comes back, just put everything on mine and we'll split it from there. You, you look good to the waitress, you look good to the friends. And then you guys can split it up accordingly. Don't put your poor waitress through eight splits of a check just because you're scared you might not get a couple, you know, right. Couple ones back. Go ahead, just throw the car. Make it easy. Everyone looks you like, dang. That. That really kind of helped everyone out. That's when the hard part comes. Just immediately get the itemized receipt, split it, and don't let anyone leave until they.
JP
How do you navigate the situation if there's one person that is against that?
Gabe
Like, against what? Splitting it.
Mitch
Like, let's just say we went out to dinner and I was like, like.
Gabe
I don't drink some drinks.
JP
Yeah. Like, because, you know, sometimes you'll go to, you'll go to eat. And it's just like. Just split it five ways.
Mitch
I don't.
JP
Whatever it is.
Mitch
I don't necessarily.
JP
You don't do that.
Mitch
It's like you just kind of say forgot.
JP
Right. That's what I'm asking is like, so you would rather go, hey, no, actually, I need you, waitress, waiter, to break this down into all individual stuff.
Mitch
Sometimes, like, I feel like. Like, we've. We've done that at Neighbors where it's like, I feel like they have, like, a. They have the table on their little.
JP
Thing, and then like, seat 1, 2, 3, 4.
Coop
Yeah, I think they do do it like that.
Mitch
But, like, there. Because I have been in instances where it's like, let's just split it five ways. But somebody got an app and they had, like, three drinks, and then, like, someone clearly spent more money, got more food, whatever, and now you're picking up the tab for them in, like, I'm like, come on. Or just like it. Like, if. Let's just say Coop was the person who got more stuff. Like, hey, just buy me a beer when we go out.
Gabe
Well, that's how you get that. If you don't want to split it just straight up. All of us go to dinner. We just split it right down the middle. Each person pays their way. Get the itemized receipt.
Mitch
Yeah.
Gabe
And then you might have. Do a little extra math on the tax, but that's the price you're paying.
Mitch
Well, one. One thing that I. So I'll do that a lot because I have a Venmo card, like, a Venmo debit card. So I'll just keep a balance on my. On my card. And, like, it makes it so easy because, like, you can. Like, if I. Let's just say I have, like, 100 bucks on the card, and the. Like, the amount of the check is more than 100 bucks.
JP
You can be like, I'll put 100 down.
Mitch
Like, I have a hundred on my card already. But also, hey, Jack's meal was 25. Coops was 30. JP's was 20. Like, y' all can Venmo me. And immediately that money is on the card. So, like, we. It won't get, like, declined or anything.
Coop
It's.
Mitch
I think it's like a. It's a very cheat code all hack.
JP
Yeah. Mitch is also really good at math.
Mitch
It's completely, like, getting the guy. Getting the Venmo card is completely free. And, like, if you went to a special. Like, a special paid ad. What's that?
Garrett
This our first sponsored ad.
JP
Venmo get in.
Garrett
The Venmo card is.
JP
I have a Venmo card. It's awesome.
Coop
Yeah.
Mitch
Like, I.
JP
The card itself, I'm saying it's like, it's cool looking.
Mitch
Yeah.
JP
And like a galaxy.
Mitch
They have like, college cards now too. So if I bring it, like, if you went to, like, Penn State, you get a Penn State Venmo card. It's kind of sick, but I just have a blue one.
Garrett
How do y' all feel? What do y' all think on, like, tapas family style meals? Is there a number that's too large for it? Are you a fan of it in general? Would you rather order your own food?
Gabe
You're saying a number of people at the reservation, correct? Yeah, I don't think there is, cuz. No matter what, let's say there's 20 of us or five of us. Like, if there's five, will five collectively do our own dinner in each section of the table? I think can do theirs. But I will say I don't want to organize one. I. I'm fine to be invited to one, but I'm not gonna be like, hey, let's all go to tapas. And I'm not like, I like a two or three, four.
JP
I'm also not the guy at the table, like, conducting the. I'm never the one that's like, what do you guys want to do? Y' all get this over there. I'm. I'm a behind the scenes.
Mitch
No, nou is like, yeah, it's like.
Garrett
Tapas, but they're one of the few places that gives you proper portions for tapas. I think most tapas specific restaurants, freaking, they. They skim you on the portion size. So you got to order a bunch of them. No, co you could. It legit feeds however many is with you.
Mitch
Yeah, like, I. I'm not a big.
JP
Right.
Mitch
Yeah, yeah. I'm like. I'm just saying, like, I'm not a big fan of, like, tapas restaurants. I would rather just get my meal right. I know, like, yeah, I know that'll fill me up. And I know, like, I'm not gonna be hungry. Yeah, yeah.
Garrett
That's how I feel too. And a lot of times if I'm with people and I know the type of orderer they are, it's like, I know this person's not going to tap into the menu how I want to tap into the menu.
JP
If you're at a large group, that's when you see where they sit and you go, right. It's nothing against them. I'm Just going to go order with my people.
Mitch
I will say Jay, like, and I've given JP his flowers numerous times this week. Like, if I'm going to get sushi with somebody, I want it to be JP because he knows his sushi, and he, like, feel like, you know me well enough now that you know my palette. And so it's like, that is like a. Like a clean take, I guess.
JP
Have you ever had Dang.
Gabe
No. Sponsored ad?
Mitch
Yeah, I've had sushi, but it's also, like, I like the raw stuff scares me.
JP
But, like, we should get some next week.
Garrett
San Fran.
Mitch
Yeah, but so he, like, yeah, this is what. This is. Like, you'll be straight. Like, you'll be fine. It's like when we went to Oregon, he told me what to get, and it was fire.
JP
Oh, yeah, yeah. Jogger. The same spot or a different one?
Mitch
Portland.
Coop
Yeah.
Gabe
Oh, yeah. That place was good, though.
JP
That was with the pink salt or whatever.
Gabe
Pink rice.
JP
Yeah, yeah. Pink rice. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Mitch
Now that we went to different ones.
Garrett
Two different.
Gabe
Yeah, The Oregon one was the pink rice one. This was a different one.
Mitch
I was knocked out.
Gabe
You got to try some. Some nagiri or sashimi. In out west, when we go there, some raw fish. Just, like, one bite. You can get, like, one portion of it.
Mitch
I thought. Isn't. Isn't sushi normally raw? And then that technically. Nigiri.
Gabe
Nigiri is when it's, like, actually over rice.
JP
I think it's how it's presented. Right. Is the. When you get into the nigiri versus.
Garrett
Yeah.
Mitch
A roll.
Gabe
It's a bigger portion of raw fish, too, is what you're gonna eat.
Garrett
Yeah.
Mitch
Got you. So it's like a slab of fish.
JP
Yep.
Gabe
Yeah, but it'd be, like, that much like the size of, like, a circle. Yeah. Chicken nugget. It's almost like a butterfly. Butterfly fillet. Spread open.
JP
We're gonna get you right.
Gabe
I'm excited.
JP
Hey, in the comments, let us know where we should go eat in San Francisco Food scene. And if you're in San Francisco, say, hey.
Gabe
Pull up.
JP
You see us walking around?
Coop
Say hey to us.
Gabe
You want to be on Ashburn Heights? Come on. Come on. For an episode, too, if you're cool enough.
Mitch
Yeah.
JP
Real.
Mitch
Did we. Did we talk about that?
Gabe
We haven't.
Mitch
So, yeah. Next week, obviously, we're going to be at the Super Bowl.
JP
Unfortunately, Coop will not be holding it down.
Mitch
I'll be holding down, but the four.
JP
Of us, Home base, home, home, B team.
Mitch
The four of us plus clump will be out There. And next week's episode will be shot out there, and we'll talk about everything that we've been doing and whatnot. And then the following week, we have off. However, the Coops. Minions that are B team. I didn't want to say the B team.
Coop
I kind of like. Whose minions?
JP
Whatever you want.
Mitch
Yeah.
Coop
Change five times by the time.
JP
That's fine.
Mitch
Coop and the boys that were here, they're going to record an episode.
Coop
I'm making a logo.
Mitch
Coop and the boys that are here, they'll be recording an episode themselves. So it'll be a different cast of characters.
Coop
I just found out about that.
Mitch
That'll be here the week after. But just so that way, we're. We're always giving you the inside the bus. We're never missing a week.
Coop
That'll be an interesting episode.
JP
It's gonna be fun. If they get more views than us, I swear to God, dude, I didn't.
Garrett
Even think about that.
JP
I know.
Coop
We got big plans.
JP
We got a turf war in the next two weeks. What are your plans?
Coop
I can't tell you.
Garrett
We'll see who Coop really sides with.
JP
Yeah. For real?
Mitch
Yeah. If Coop starts talking more in this. In that episode, we'll know.
Coop
I've been talking.
Mitch
No, you're good.
JP
Word count is up for us.
Coop
Just got patted on the head. Oh, you've been good.
JP
I can't believe it is the super bowl, though. Like, halfway through the football season, you're kind of like, obviously you hope that your team is still good. As for, like, the Titans were unfortunately not very good this year, so it makes the season twice as long. But the fact that we just recorded our last locker room episode just feels insane. Sounds like a blur.
Mitch
It sucks we're not gonna have Delaney and Clay in the office every week.
JP
Delaney stops by.
Coop
You have a Delaney.
JP
We never. Might never see Clay again.
Coop
He'll go, like, a few months without coming when it's not every week.
Mitch
But then, like, you know what? You know, that first day back, he'll be back there with us for, yeah, hours, just chopping it up, talking. Telling random stories about what he's been getting into.
JP
What? What do you got? I mean, I guess we're gonna have another episode before the super bowl, but do you guys have, like, an early prediction or thought of, like, the game?
Mitch
Seahawks by 10.
JP
I think so, too.
Mitch
Yeah.
Garrett
Yeah. You already know where I'm rocking.
JP
Yeah.
Coop
What's that guy? He's.
JP
He's like a new guy. He's kind of good.
Garrett
Dude number three on The Seattle Seahawks. I don't know if you've heard of him yet. Yeah, safety. I'm on Warty, but Nicki Minwari. Yeah, you know, I'm rocking with the Seahawks. Hopefully he wins Super Bowl MVP hat would have to be the first rookie.
JP
Defensive player get a pick six.
Garrett
Pick six? Oh my gosh.
JP
After Cooper De Jean had one last year. Yeah, true, but he wasn't a rookie last year, was he, Coop?
Garrett
He was a sophomore, wasn't he?
JP
Second year.
Gabe
No, no, it was his first year. I thought he was a rookie.
Mitch
He was a rookie last year.
Garrett
Really?
Gabe
Yeah, it was.
Coop
It was his rookie.
JP
It was go white boy. Yeah, fly the whole squad.
Gabe
Fly.
Mitch
Wasn't he. Wasn't Coop an all pro this year?
Garrett
He was he.
Gabe
Actually I'm just more taking a shot of the was 13.
Coop
I wasn't paying attention to the Eagles.
JP
Said what third team. Damn.
Coop
Yeah, that was. That sounded bad. I gotta work on my delivery for.
JP
A lot of things.
Gabe
No, I like.
Coop
No, no, I like not.
JP
Namesake don't change. I don't stay the way you are.
Coop
Seeing my delivery on Santa.
JP
You imagine if your delivery was different when you're talking about the old person at the gym? It wasn't.
Coop
That was unfiltered.
Gabe
That.
Coop
I still. I stand on that. I wonder what she's doing.
JP
She's still waiting.
Coop
Yeah, she probably still waiting. She's probably still complaining.
Gabe
You got any pet peeve?
Mitch
She might be dead.
Coop
She. She could be silence, but yeah.
Gabe
Coop, you got any pet peeves?
Coop
No, not off the top of my head.
Gabe
Come on, man.
JP
I know actually when everyone's telling their.
Coop
Good super bowl memories and trip memories and I just have to sit there because I wasn't on it.
Mitch
I have one, but it's recency bias.
Gabe
Drop it.
JP
Yeah, go ahead. Because I'm going to decide if I want to air out this douchebag at Chick Fil A from earlier today.
Coop
Wow.
Mitch
I feel like you have to now.
JP
Yeah. That was kind of like the. Off the glass to myself.
Mitch
My. Mine is like. You know how like everybody here probably has their. Like, this is my stuff. Don't touch it. I like it a specific way. Oh, don't touch it.
Gabe
Why are you looking at me?
Coop
Is this internal?
Mitch
What do you mean?
Garrett
In a way, it probably is internal.
Coop
Let's let them like inside the.
JP
I think you're thinking of something else.
Mitch
But like just when people will go.
JP
Like say their names.
Mitch
No, people will go like, get into your stuff and like completely. You had it all dialed in the way you Wanted it. Everything was straight, like, exactly how you wanted it. And people would just come in and just it up for like.
Gabe
What do you mean by people?
Garrett
Is it people or person?
Mitch
Someone it made like this could. This could be. It's working here. It could be.
Coop
But who was it?
Mitch
I'm thinking of one specific incident, but that it has happened plenty within the last 48 hours. But like, if someone just moves your stuff around, it's like, dude, like one. In this specific instance. You're better than that. Like, don't touch my stuff.
JP
So I. I like. Because I know what Mitch is talking about. Definitely side with him. There are instances when, like, someone may mistakenly move some shit without knowing for sure. But for this specific thing, I understand where you're frustrated.
Mitch
It's also like, like, I don't know, like, did you guys have cleaning ladies growing up?
JP
It was in your house.
Mitch
Like, I don't. Like, I just remember, you know, you have. I know this specific thing is in this specific spot at the house, and the cleaning lady comes and just cleans everything as they're supposed to do. But then you're just like, I know where. And then you can't find it.
Garrett
And it's like, yeah, then I just be blaming any. Everyone too. Why'd you move it?
Mitch
Yeah.
Garrett
When really I actually probably misplaced it. You hit it from the reason I hate when people move myself because I also have it in a, you know, a perfectly contained mess. Yeah. I get upset because it's. They're just kind of holding a mirror up to me where I like, I know that I should be better and my stuff should be more organized. And now I'm mad at them for bringing that to light.
Mitch
But like, for you, like, that's deep.
Coop
That is.
Mitch
But for you, like, your. Your. Your desk may be a little bit messy, but I guarantee you know exactly where everything is.
Garrett
Right? Right.
Mitch
And as long as you know where everything is, I don't see. Personally, I don't see an issue with it.
Coop
Can I add on to that real quick?
JP
Go ahead.
Coop
Speaking of messy desk.
JP
Let's go.
Coop
I can't believe this pet peeve hasn't been said. I know, and I'm not. My hands aren't completely clean because at some point it just overwhelms me and I just let it happen. My pet peeve, my biggest pet peeve at work is people just leaving on my desk.
JP
Now.
Coop
It did win me an award. Like, I. I got.
Gabe
You've won best desk or best desert.
JP
We're a for it, but it's kind of a community award. At what cost about it?
Garrett
It did.
Coop
There's something new there every day. Something new there every day.
JP
Yeah.
Gabe
You're on the highway of busing.
JP
I actually love where your desk is, everyone. But it also is kind of in a bad spot.
Garrett
It's next to Jerry.
Coop
Everyone else loves where it is. It's their cup holder.
Mitch
Yeah, I'd be lying if I said my water bottle hasn't ended up on there once or twice.
Coop
At one point I was collecting all the water bottles and I was rounding them up and one day I was just gonna show everyone, hey, you should start label. You should start labeling.
Garrett
Start labeling the things people leave. So Taylor leaves a water bottle. Just put TL on it.
Coop
You know, the worst part is it'll happen when I'm not there. Like when I got like. So I just don't know. So I can't even point a finger. Except for Will left his form on my. I think it's still down there. That one was definitely Will this morning.
Garrett
We'll set a cam up.
JP
Yeah, you should go start putting it like next to his backpack.
Coop
I need to start scheming. I need to start scheming. But yeah, that's pet peeve.
Mitch
Yeah, that's my pet peeve is when people touch your and just like.
Coop
So who was it?
Garrett
Is it a male or female?
Mitch
It can be both.
Coop
That's true at the same time.

Garrett
But it's not an isolated incident. No, but it is recency bias.
Mitch
Yes.
Garrett
Love it.
JP
And directed towards a specific person.
Garrett
Foul.
Mitch
Yeah, foul always touches.
JP
I was going to go off about this dude from Chick Fil A, but I'm not going to let him win.
Gabe
Nice.
JP
More than he already has growth. But my pet peeve, and this is a new one for me living in an apartment. But it is elevator etiquette. If I am on the elevator and the door opens, usually the person on the elevator gets off before the people get on the elevator, correct?
Garrett
Yeah, yeah.
Coop
Yes.
JP
There are a handful of people in my building that don't understand that and they are close to just getting a check in the freaking shoulder because I'm like dog I can't get out of your way if you don't let me off the elevator, then they get mad.
Coop
At you for getting in the way. Like, they just have that little attitude.
JP
Sometimes where I'll go, oh, excuse me, my fault.
Coop
The little attitude.
JP
Definitely.
Gabe
I know G getting pissed.
Mitch
You know, G's definitely getting a little bit loud.
JP
I'll definitely throw.
Mitch
Throw a. Oh, my bad.
Garrett
Carol Wayne. Hey, Maker.
JP
Hey, that's on me. I'll get out. Let me get out your way.
Gabe
Or.
JP
Oh, pardon me.
Gabe
Passive aggressive elevator interaction ever.
JP
It makes me so mad because it's like the easiest thing. Like, I don't know. Those kind of things just piss me off. It's like holding the door for people. Like, those types of things are just pissed me off where it's like, if you're just a normal person with a brain going to understand how that operation works. Like, if I hold the door for you and you look at me like I have four heads, I probably won't hold it for you the next time. But the elevator etiquette pisses me off.
Mitch
I will find you and I will kill you.
Garrett
There, there.
Mitch
Like, I find it's not going to.
JP
Be hard six floors.
Mitch
I do. I do this skis. Like, sometimes I get in my head about it. But, like, say four, when you. If you get on the elevator and you're on there first and somebody else gets on, and like, when you guys are going both to the same floor, you're going to floor one. And, like, doors open. Who gets off first?
JP
I. Regardless, if I'm on first, on second, I always am going to be the person that, like, puts my hand out there and lets the person go.
Mitch
I. In my head, I'm like, I should.
Gabe
Always strive to be the last person leaving an elevator.
JP
Yeah, I just.
Mitch
That's what I try to let the person, like, if whenever. Just let them get off, people are on the elevator. But then you just kind of feel weird because you're standing there for like a half a second. It's like, go.
Coop
I don't like when the people.
JP
That's why I just speak up. Like, when we land, that door starts my. Hey, y' all go ahead.
Coop
I don't like when people are standing, like, right next to the door and.
Gabe
They, like, they will wait.
Coop
They try to, like, let you get off. Like, go. Just go. Like, yeah, like, you're there right next to the door.
JP
You're the door. One thing I have noticed, though, is.
Mitch
I.
JP
Because it is a new thing for me living in the apartment, I Know like three people in my building. But that's purely because I just am not introducing myself. But I know about every dog in the building because when we get on the elevators, I'll talk to every dog and I'm always like, oh, what's their name? Not once have I been like, what's your name?
Garrett
Yeah, that's how I do that too.
JP
Well, and it's one of those. At first I was like, I could stand on here and not say anything or I can at least interact with the dog. That's a safe play. Everyone loves dogs. Now I'm like, really should know what.
Gabe
Misty's parents name is as a dog owner though. And being asked what is my pet's name? I've never once had an issue with that. I could see myself feeling a little peculiar if someone's like, oh, what's your name too.
JP
Well, I think it's, it's because we live in the same building. Yeah, the close quarters, community based. Where it should be like, I'm Garrett by the way.
Gabe
It's the guy right? Checked in the elevator.
JP
Yeah. Yeah, you're Misty's dad.
Mitch
That's probably how you should go about it. Be like, oh, what's your name? Like, oh, I'm. What's, what's her name? Oh, oh, I'm Gary, by the way.
Gabe
You're just talking to the pet. What's your cute dad's name?
JP
Hey, so what, what room do y' all live in? But yeah, I have noticed because it is new for me. The, the elevator thing is.
Mitch
Yeah.
JP
Also I just, I feel bad about like people that have dogs that live in apartments. That one's always tough for me because I think about that and like big cities, like that's a hard one for me. I would love to have a dog, but like, it's tough. Think about the last couple days with the ice. Okay. Hey buddy, we gotta, yeah, giddy up. We gotta go hit the elevator. I mean that. What if the elevator turns off? Who was it that got locked in the elevator for five hours?
Gabe
My girlfriend told me one of her friends was on her story and she had locked, stuck in an elevator for five hours during the, like during the storm.
Garrett
And man, I would pay to see Coop in the hell.
JP
She said. After the straight Jacket third hour, she posted on her story. Hey, I'm stuck in here 30 minutes. I'm out the top.
Coop
Sweating right now. Just think about it.
JP
Bobby said, I've seen way too much Jason Bourne to be locked in there.
Gabe
I'm climbing out the top Bro, it's five minutes for. I'm calling every person in there.
Mitch
Yeah.
Gabe
Freaking out.
JP
I'll put it on my story, but I have a phone to call people. Yeah, the police.
Mitch
That's great.
Garrett
Police elevator.
JP
I love it if I'm on.
Garrett
You know how you're supposed to let girls off on the elevator first? No, that's what I was going to say.
JP
Now.
Garrett
Now that I'm married, if I'm in an elevator full of girls, I'm getting off first. I don't want to send the wrong idea.
JP
That's a good call.
Garrett
And so it's not being.
JP
Hey, on the way out, you hit the close button.
Gabe
Even if you're the back guy, you're.
Garrett
Like, stop following me.
Gabe
Excuse me.
JP
Yeah, that's funny. All right, last elevator. When you get on the elevator or you're already on, someone gets on or you get. Not at the same time.
Garrett
I press all the buttons.
JP
Do you. I was going to say, are you. Do you ask them, like, what floor?
Coop
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Mitch
The way. The way my building didn't do that.
JP
The other day, and I had to.
Garrett
Like, reach across them.
Mitch
The way my building works is like, you're like, say you're on floor five. You can't hit floor six for me. Yeah, I have. We have to scan.
JP
You have to scan it.
Mitch
You scan and can only hit, like. You can only hit number, like, for me. The only four that works for me is six. So I can't be like, oh, what floor? And, like, touch it for you. Because you have to scan. Your. The only time it doesn't like, is if you're going to one.
JP
Yeah, yeah, that's. You can leave.
Garrett
So you know he live in downtown?
Mitch
Yeah, I'm downtown with it, man.
JP
Elevators, man.
Mitch
How long we've been going?
Garrett
We'd be going probably 52 minutes.
Gabe
It always lands on 52, so we're.
Mitch
Always between, like, 42 to 52.
Garrett
So we're pros, man.
JP
We know.
Garrett
We know the attention spans. Yeah, it's the same. Same length as a His and hers episode.
JP
Dog.
Mitch
I. Dude, I gotta get. I told Brooke.
JP
I'm like, have you started it?
Gabe
No, I got to. I feel like.
JP
Hey, you can finish tonight.
Coop
Yeah.
Mitch
How long is it?
JP
It's six episodes. 30 minutes.
Gabe
30 minutes. Piece shrinking just came out tonight.
JP
Even.
Gabe
This is Wednesday. Yeah. New season came out tonight or will be coming out tonight night. I believe it's Friday 28th.
Mitch
Friday night.
Gabe
Yep.
Garrett
I wish Jared was up here so he could talk about how much he hates it.
Gabe
Dude, that Pissed me off yesterday. No shrinking. Wait, was it his and hers, too?
Garrett
No, no, not shrinking.
Coop
Yeah.
Gabe
Yeah. Rant about shrinking yesterday, that had me to. I gotta watch his and hers, though.
JP
It's amazing.
Mitch
Jared's show opinions are. They kind of.
Garrett
Yeah.
JP
Not respected. He said. He said the other day in the car, he liked the first season and then it just got too soft.
Gabe
He said it became too hard. The same storyline, same, like, characters.
JP
Yeah.
Gabe
I'm like, well, yeah.
Garrett
I do love the strength at which Jared stands on his opinions, though. I do respect that about him.
Gabe
Yeah.
Garrett
Not that I agree with them, but it's funny.
Gabe
You're not swaying his opinion.
Garrett
Right. Which is impressive.
JP
His. His Marvel 1 or Superhero 1 had broads in a blender.
Coop
He loves Harry Potter.
Mitch
Harry Potter riffs.
JP
That's real, dude.
Coop
I'm. Yeah. Based on Harry Potter, knows RIP all of his reasons.
Mitch
So Marvel.
Coop
Everything else is reasons. He likes Harry Potter.
Mitch
Yeah.
JP
Right.
Garrett
There's actually a couple superhero trailers that just recently came out.
JP
I just saw one.
Garrett
One was like, one of these DC ones was so garbage. And I was like, man, what. I don't. I really don't understand how these movies can continue to get made. Like bad superhero movies. The Playbook is out there.
Coop
Maybe we're just starting to see through the. We're just starting to see through Jared's lens.
Mitch
Do you remember which.
Garrett
I can't remember, but, like, Avengers Doomsday, I'm sure will hit. But also, it's gonna be weird seeing Robert Downey Jr. As a villain.
Coop
Except for every Spider Man.
Mitch
Did y' all see the. Did you guys ever see, like, the New Avengers or Thunderbolts, the new event?
Garrett
I started it on the plane about it.
Coop
I didn't watch it.
Gabe
I've seen it. I actually didn't mind Thunderbolts. I like the cast. I thought it was fun. I have zero expectation now for Marvel and the Fantastic Cinematic Universe they're in, but Fantastic Four was great, bro.
Mitch
I feel like ever since Stranger Things, Hopper. David Harbour is. He's in. I've seen him.
Gabe
They're trying to shove him down your throat.
Mitch
They're pop. He's popping up.
Gabe
I like him, but.
Mitch
Yeah, I like him, too, because he was saying he was in that obvious. He's in Stranger Things. And I just watched a trailer with him and Jason Bateman. It's like. I think it's DTF St. Louis and, like, David Harbor. No, like, actually. And like. Like, I guess David Harbour, like, somehow, like, dies, and it's kind of like, I guess, sort of, like, murder mystery type deal, but it's, like, sexual. Yeah, they're down, but like, Jason. Like, I will watch anything with Jason. Batman, He.
JP
I'm the same way.
Garrett
He's a beast, bro.
JP
I saw a trailer for something earlier.
Garrett
Chris Hemsworth and Halle Berry. The new crime movie that's coming out February 13th and exclusive, theaters only.
JP
No, not that hard.
Gabe
Is that our third ad?
Garrett
Yeah, they. I've been getting a lot of dms. Like, bro, you're so, so. You look so much like Chris Hemsworth. I thought this was you in the movie. I was like, nah, man, that's just. That's just blood.
JP
No, that's just big, bro.
Garrett
That's big, bro. Looks like it's gonna be good, though.
Mitch
We gotta get Chris Hemsworth on the pod.
Garrett
I know, bro. I actually messaged him the other day, but he's in Spain, so time changed off.
JP
Waiting for a response. Dang, man.
Garrett
He went to Ravenwood.
Gabe
All right.
JP
Make sure you tune in next week.
Garrett
Yeah.

JP
100 million give.
Mitch
I don't want to. I don't want to cause a rift in between the squads, but, like, which one you liked more?
Gabe
Oh, from here to next week, A.
JP
Team or B team?
Garrett
Yeah, there's a world. Like, if the B team does good, there's a serious world where we would have to consider every other week we switch 100.
Gabe
Yeah.
Mitch
And you guys let us know if you want that.
Coop
What if we're both successful and I'm just the glue?
JP
What if you are the glue?
Gabe
I would believe it. I believe it.
Coop
It's got to happen first.
Garrett
Gotta have one kid's day.
Gabe
Elmer's, Coop.
Garrett
Hey, but seriously, though, El versus Coop.
JP

On elevator etiquette in apartments:
"If I am on the elevator and the door opens, usually the person on the elevator gets off before the people get on the elevator, correct?" – JP [54:49]
On switching up the Bus crew:
"If the B team does good, there's a serious world where we would have to consider every other week we switch." – Garrett [65:22]
The episode embodies the classic Inside The Bus energy: easygoing, banter-heavy, yet with genuine friendship and insider sports/media talk. It’s about surviving storms, both literal (the Nashville freeze) and metaphorical (work chaos, urban apartment living, and NFL heartbreak). The food debates and group dynamic jokes anchor the episode, while Super Bowl anticipation and a running competition between "A team" and “B team” promise riotous future content. If you’re a fan of Bussin’s in-the-bus chaos or want a feel-good recap of the sports crew’s winter survival, this episode’s a banger.
