Year like Winter Olympics introduces two new sports that could leave you literally paralyzed like at any moment. Meanwhile, Summer Olympics just introduces like Jazz, break dancing. They're just like such opposite Olympics. Ah, show me something. Podcast episode 33. Welcome. Soph, are you in Arizona? I am.
Sophie Cunningham
I. Yeah. I got in at like 6:30am yesterday.
Kevin
Did you. Did you get to relax and chill out yesterday?
Sophie Cunningham
Oh, my God, I did nothing. No, I did. I was in bed all day yesterday. Ordered Chinese, eight dumplings, some orange chicken.
Kevin
Do we have the same tired hungover back from the airport order?
Sophie Cunningham
Oh, so good, dude.
Kevin
So good, dude. I do lo mein. Two things of dumplings. And then sometimes I'll try to like, be a little healthy and get like a broccoli or like a broccolini on the side. But usually lo mein dumplings and fried rice, maybe even dude.
Sophie Cunningham
And I feel like in New York, that is like a order. Out here in Arizona, I can't find a great Chinese place with good lo mein. And lo mein is like, the way to my heart.
Kevin
Yeah. You know, I can't not have lo mein. You know what's good with lo mein? Spicy mustard. I keep spicy mustard in the fridge. Next time you order lo mein, do you like a spicy mustard and just kind of like dip your chopsticks in the mustard? I think you'd fuck with it.
Sophie Cunningham
I like that. Dude, I'm up in New York. I think in like a couple weeks we should go to Din Typhoon.
Kevin
Yeah, I have. I have you on my picture calendar.
Sophie Cunningham
What pictures?
Kevin
Yeah, yeah.
Wes
Guys, I want you to have fun. And Sophie, you might have warm feelings about this place, but as you talk about lo mein Noodletown, my grandparents restaurant, I'm the New York Times.
Sophie Cunningham
Let's go there.
Wes
Lo mein is like one of their, like top five, like, joints. So, like, absolutely need to make it happen.
Kevin
Wait, let's go. Let's do dinner.
Sophie Cunningham
Yes.
Kevin
When Soph's here.
Sophie Cunningham
Yes.
Kevin
And you can, but you have to come.
Wes
Oh, obviously you can't. You can't get a reservation without me. They don't take reservations there. All right? Like, they don't speak English in the North Forks. They don't give water. I'm gonna be like a shepherd.
Sophie Cunningham
No, time out. They said that Kev said that he walks in there sometimes and is like, hey, I'm. And like, they don't even know who Kevin is. He has to. He has to, like, tell them that Blank is his great. Yeah. Is like his grandpa or his grandma.
Kevin
Whatever. Wow. Okay. Yeah, we have to do it then.
Wes
It's gonna be good, though.
Kevin
That sounds perfect. You were at allstar. Talk to me.
Sophie Cunningham
Adidas really did good. It was so fun. I had something like Adidas. Every day they threw like, this huge event. Like, Dwight Howard was there, Austin Rivers was there. Spida. Who's Donovan Mitchell? Him and Coco. They came through. There's a bunch of people who came through to this game.
Kevin
I have a question for you about All Star dunk contest. Did you watch? Did you see? No.
Sophie Cunningham
What happened?
Kevin
Oh, it was just so bad. It was like. It's one of the worst dunks contests we've ever seen.
Sophie Cunningham
Really?
Kevin
They were all, like, dancing. It was just, like, weird All Star.
Sophie Cunningham
They're just trying to do too much. I know. I don't really think anyone watched the game. I heard that, like, this year, unfortunately, like, the events and stuff just started at such a weird time that, like, no one was really at the events. It's just like, weird. And like, I know I was talking to a bunch of people this past weekend, like, pros went to Taylor Rooks and Dwayne Wade Spades party. Made it to the elite eight, baby.
Kevin
Oh, yeah, big deal.
Sophie Cunningham
That's a big deal. But, like, there we were all talking and stuff, and it's like, I feel like on Tuesdays, like, used to be able to just turn on, like, espn, whatever, and like, games would be there. And like, nowadays you just have to have, like, so many subscriptions. There's. It's on way too many channels. It's like, it's. They make it way too difficult to even find games.
Kevin
Yeah.
Sophie Cunningham
Like, and it's expensive. Like, if you need 10 different subscriptions. Do you think the average American family is doing that? Absolutely not.
Wes
No.
Kevin
I mean, if you think about the NFL, they. The NFL season is now on, if we count everything. Espn, cbs, Fox, NBC, Netflix game. Ne. Netflix game, Peacock game, Amazon. Okay, so that's. That's seven. Seven different services, and you might be missing one. Yeah, I probably am. All these people want money, have money. They're all paying the NFL, you know, so it's like, yeah, and NBA, same thing.
Sophie Cunningham
It's just weird.
Kevin
I got to see Kev this weekend.
Sophie Cunningham
First off, dude, I got a picture.
Kevin
Not to one up here. I will say, Kev, you can even pop on screen here. I walk by Kev to like, go get like a snack or something. And Kevin's sweet, angelic son takes both arms, lunges at me, grabs my arm like this and. And just put his arms around me and gave me a big. And I go, this is a good start to the friendship. This is great.
Sophie Cunningham
I love this.
Kevin
This is definitely.
Sophie Cunningham
I got the. I got the pictures of you three. And I was like, oh, my gosh, that is so, so perfect.
Kevin
And then 10 minutes later, he was banging a balloon on Kev's head. It's just fun seeing like, your friends be parents because you're like, you just are like, you just do. You just show up and try your best, you know?
Wes
No, that. That's basically it. After. After three years, that's still what I got.
Kevin
Oh yeah, I went to a one year old's birthday.
Sophie Cunningham
Yeah, Whose birthday was it?
Kevin
Her name's Pippa. It's my like, oh, I met Pippa. Oh, yeah, you did. That's right, I did. It was.
Sophie Cunningham
I met her at a bar.
Kevin
It was. That's where her birthday was, at a bar. I got kind of drunk at a one year old's birthday. I was. I like, woke up in the morning, I was like, geez, what has life come to you? This one year old's birthday party got me fucking buckled.
Sophie Cunningham
We know what I. One of my favorite parts of this weekend though, I caught up on the summer houses.
Kevin
Oh my God.
Sophie Cunningham
Well, I texted you and Kev last night after season after episode one, I was like, oh, hell yeah. Amanda is on her this season.
Kevin
She is. She? Yeah. Like, sometimes I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, take it easy on my. On my boy Kyle. But at the same time, you know, it just is. It's just how it goes, I guess, you know?
Sophie Cunningham
Wait, is it like.
Kevin
But it is sad. It's also sad. I don't like watching them fight.
Sophie Cunningham
No, I know. And it's a thousand percent sad. And like, you really don't want. You want everyone to just like feel good and be good, but like, dude, can I just say something though? I don't know either of them, I promise. Like, so this is just like me being a fan of the show. It's like all these seasons, I feel like Amanda has taken it and taken it and taken it and finally she's like this. I'm over the. And like, that is honestly kind of cool to see. That's all I'm gonna say. That's all I'm gonna say. And like, I just.
Kevin
Yeah.
Sophie Cunningham
And I feel. I feel bad for Kyle. Like, I do feel bad. I'm sure we don't know like, all the details of like, everything, but like, dude, like, I agree.
Kevin
Come home.
Sophie Cunningham
Yes.
Kevin
Yes. Yeah.
Sophie Cunningham
Yes.
Wes
Last, I do have one question for you. Like, in that situation, obviously we sear it. We like, you know, people at home see it as Sophie describes it. We feel that right Are you feeling that tension real time or does it feel just like normal?
Kevin
Amanda, Kyle, I think you can definitely feel it because I don't know, they just, they just operate so differently that like I, I am like I always want, you know, everyone in the same room, everyone at the same club, like, whatever, but you go through waves where like, because it's in real time, you also like you, you're, you're hearing it from both perspectives and like, whatever. But at the same time I like. And I think it'll play out like throughout the season. But like I made sure I had like Amanda's back throughout the summer just because there were more dudes. Sierra's always going to have Amanda's back. But like, I think sometimes it's good to like, man to man, like make sure you protect the, the ladies. And so, yeah, you wanna, you wanna stick up for people and involve yourself without being like annoying about it, you know, Thousand percent.
Sophie Cunningham
But I will say like a little.
Kevin
Check in here or like just a little whatever. Like you gotta figure out the right like, balance to, you know, be in between like couples.
Sophie Cunningham
And it's hard because you are, you came in and it's not like you were friends with Kyle before the show or friends with Amanda before the show. Like you're genuinely friends with both of em and I'm sure that's like a tough position for you to be in and some of the other castmates too. So. So like I feel for you guys but man, I just, it's, it's, it. I'm proud of her for actually like doing something about her not being happy. You know what I mean? Like, I'm proud of her for making that step. So that was cool.
Kevin
No, I, that's like you're articulating that very well and I agree with you. Yeah. But yeah, it's more. I do sometimes, like when the show's airing, I'm like, fuck. Like, can we get an episode where it's not that, you know?
Sophie Cunningham
Yeah, I know.
Kevin
And it's more sillies. But now you have a story to tell because we know, I guess how it ends.
Sophie Cunningham
So. Hey, also, kj, do you have any.
Kevin
Fun stuff to say about the show?
Sophie Cunningham
Dude, yes, I'm about to get into it. I like, yeah, I just want to go through everything. These are all the things that stuck out to me. So definitely Amanda finally be like, fuck this. Like, yeah, I'm done. I'm over the bullshit. I love how you talk to KJ about his anxiety. That was so nice of you.
Kevin
Kansas City guy.
Sophie Cunningham
Yeah. But, like, just how you approached it as a friend, though, like, hey, do you like people checking up on you? Do you like. That was, like, super nice of you. That was cool.
Kevin
Thanks, Soph. Yeah, that played. There's always moments that you don't remember that, like, I've said this probably a hundred times when you and I talk, but, like, things you forget about, they, like, really register with people. And that was one where, like, we were just setting up small talking and it was just like a little check in. But I don't think in the same way where you. You don't realize maybe how bad you hurt someone's feelings or you upset someone in one way, it's nice to, like, look back and be like, I didn't even think of it. But, like, that little thing that I did, like, went a long way for someone and, like, that was really important. And seeing other people be like, just checking in on your friends in those. In those little moments is, like, so important. Yeah. And, you know, I. It's cool to, like, see how all that plays out. But, like, love kj. He's, like, so good for the show.
Sophie Cunningham
Ben. So Ben is single on the show, but now he's out with a girlfriend.
Kevin
He. They. Yeah, they post each other every day.
Sophie Cunningham
Okay, got it. I don't know. I don't.
Kevin
I don't know what the. Like, I don't. Yeah. But he definitely is dating now. It's no secret if you follow him on Instagram, but he. He came into the house single, ready to mingle.
Sophie Cunningham
Yes. And the two new girls, Is it Levi or Levy?
Kevin
Levi. Levi.
Sophie Cunningham
Levi.
Kevin
Yeah, they're friends. They're like best friends. So they came in together?
Sophie Cunningham
Yes.
Wes
What.
Sophie Cunningham
What are, like, what are their. What are their vibes?
Kevin
They're, like, so normal. Bailey's chatty. Like, super chatty. Oh, Levi's from Indianapolis. Did I tell you that already?
Sophie Cunningham
Well, I saw it. Said I saw it.
Kevin
I watched the first episode with one of my friends, Lucas, and I asked Levi, I'm like, where are you from? She goes, indianapolis. And I was like. I was like, hell, yeah. And he goes, you're the only dude I know who would be like, stoked that someone was from Indianapolis on this TV show.
Sophie Cunningham
And I was like, a thousand percent. They seem funny. They seem like. And this is like.
Kevin
They're like. You're like, young.
Sophie Cunningham
Yeah.
Kevin
You kind of get what I'm saying? Like, well, and like, Carl, like, the episode one, Carl, like, does the, like, carnival thing with a sledgehammer and they like, think it's so cute. Yeah, it's good and like, refreshing, you know?
Sophie Cunningham
No, it totally gives more personality and like, I don't want to say ditzy because I think they're like, like, they had good conversations on the side of like.
Kevin
Yeah, they're just having fun. They were like, laying in the pin with the goats and she wore one hat and like. Yeah, they're like, funny, fun. Yeah.
Sophie Cunningham
Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Dude, I, I am just so, like. Because they keep showing snippets of like the rest of the season, but, like, what the fuck is going to go on with Sierra and Jesse and then you and Sierra and then I've seen rumors you and Sierra are back together.
Kevin
No one's, no one said that we are. I think people just like, like, really, really wonder. People are really curious. Kevin.
Sophie Cunningham
Kevin.
Wes
Oh, I, I don't know. I'm just saying I see all the same Internet rumors and swirling and whatnot.
Kevin
So you guys know just as well as me that the Internet's the.
Sophie Cunningham
Everything on the Internet is true.
Kevin
I've People be dming me about you, Sophie.
Sophie Cunningham
Hey. Same vice versa.
Kevin
We should just trying to track down all your boyfriends.
Sophie Cunningham
Dude, that is funny. Like, I just want to know what the hell happens. Like, it's getting juicy.
Kevin
Yeah. I, I. It's crazy that we filmed all this.
Sophie Cunningham
And.
Kevin
July and now it's.
Sophie Cunningham
Yeah. So, like, has so much happened, like, since I'm assuming.
Kevin
I mean, like, yes and no. I do think though, like, we all, we all live our lives, but like, we, we care about the show and want other people to like it and like, we, so we've tried to protect it, you know, and not like, over share stuff. And so it's good. But I, I really liked the first episode because I thought it was like, just fun and like the county fair aspect. Like, overalls, the donkey. Like, people don't always jump in the pool at parties. This one we did the, like, smashing each other with the pie, jumping in the. I love it. Like keg stands. It was so.
Sophie Cunningham
That's how it should be.
Kevin
Yes. It was so pure and I had like hella Missouri guys there actually, like, the dudes holding up everyone's legs are all St. Louis boys.
Sophie Cunningham
I love it.
Kevin
And like corn dogs. Like, that was. It wasn't over the top, but it was like, perfect. Do you know what I'm saying?
Sophie Cunningham
No, I thought it was a great. It's like all you needed. All you needed. But can I just ask, are you guys gonna bring back the, the skinny dipping at the end of the seasons.
Kevin
You know, they have. It was like once I got there, they stopped. I. I'd fucking let it rip. I would.
Wes
It's funny you bring that up because the Amanda scene or the Amanda happening. So, Wes, you were there live. You were in the pool. We have done skinny dipping in the past on the show, but your reaction. Take us. Take us to the pool as. What did you see when you were out there?
Kevin
A nice pair of. She also, she wasn't even naked. She just had like a see through bra on. But everyone knows what happens. Everyone knows what happens when you get wet. It was fun. That livened up the party for show, but they clocked my face. I was like. Like a fourth grade. Like a fourth grader who just saw boobs for the first time.
Sophie Cunningham
Dude, that was so funny.
Kevin
Yeah, I didn't play it cool at all. There's probably one. This will come out tomorrow, so it's probably one.
Sophie Cunningham
Yes. Dude, I'm hooked. God, I'm so fucking excited.
Wes
I love this. Hey, it is.
Sophie Cunningham
If we don't have. If we don't have a season, I'm coming up there for a weekend.
Kevin
Oh, yeah. People would lose their minds. Yeah.
Sophie Cunningham
I would lose my mind.
Kevin
Yeah. So that just kind of like takes over. I'm trying to think if I have anything big coming up. Honestly, the rest of the month, I'm doing an Arby's thing for this, but I don't. I don't know if you're coming, Kev. Is Sophie coming?
Sophie Cunningham
No. Yeah, in Atlanta.
Kevin
Oh, you're going?
Sophie Cunningham
Yeah. So we'll see each other on Saturday.
Kevin
Oh, fun.
Sophie Cunningham
I didn't know you were going either. I found out this weekend, too.
Kevin
I got my first sunburn of 2026. Can you tell where? No, I'm turning into tan now. But where were you? I was in Miami for like three days and I just was like, let me get a base heading into spring. Sat it on the pool. I thought it would just be quick. And it was windy, so it didn't feel hot and I didn't use sunscreen. And then I, like, got back to the room and I was like, oh, fu Pride. Yeah. But I. My. My sunburns turned to tan like pretty quick, though. Thank goodness.
Sophie Cunningham
I know.
Kevin

Kevin
I'm Daniel Jeremiah. And I'm Greg Rosenthal. And this is 40s and free agents. The games may be over, but the NFL never stopped. The season is my favorite part of the calendar. Yeah, mine too, Greg. Free agency, the combine, the NFL draft, pro days, trades. This is where teams reshape their future. This is where Daniel Jeremiah makes his money on 40s and free agents. We break down every move that actually matters, from my draft evaluations, mock drafts and team fits to my top 101 free agents and how real rosters are built. Cap space, contracts and all the tough decisions, decisions included. You got quarterbacks on the move. We got teams rebuilding. It's hope season.
Sophie Cunningham
Yeah, absolutely.
Kevin
It's hope season. We'll tell you what's real, what's noise, and what it means for your favorite team. Smart analysis. Real conversations every week. I don't know about the smart, but definitely analysis. Listen to 40s and free agents on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Sophie Cunningham
Honestly, we haven't like. I feel like we did stuff, but I don't really have that many stories to tell.
Kevin
No. Is this the first time lives have been like, kind of relaxed? Somewhat relaxed. The.
Sophie Cunningham
The. The showdown for Adidas. That was really cool. Highlight. But I'm telling you, my other highlight was, like, staying in bed all day, Chinese watching Summer House. Oh, I know, but I told you. Timeout. But I told you. I know, but this is why I told you. I don't, like, watch. I. I like a full season so I can binge it like that. It was too quick. I only got two episodes.
Kevin
I get what you're saying, though. Like, actually, this is a very interesting topic. I saw somewhere that said HBO will always have better shows, like, historically, looking back, than Netflix, because. So Netflix drops a season at once, right? So you watch all eight of your episodes, say, the day after it comes out. And I watch, like, one or two at a time and space it out to a couple weeks. You finished it, and no spoilers. And, like, don't tell me what happens. And we, like, don't really share discourse because you know what happened. I'm still watching. Like, we miss that part of it. Hbo and, like, okay, so we'll say bravo. Like, the show comes out weekly. When an episode drops weekly, people, it's like water cooler talk. Like, the morning after. Everyone shares the same memes. They share the same stories. They talk about it for, like, a few days, and then the next episode comes out. And so every. By everyone watching it on the same schedule, you create so much more discourse and narrative around it that keeps the shows very, very, very, like, heavy. Yeah.
Sophie Cunningham
Top of mind. Yeah, dude, I'm. Yeah. And I get it. Like, and, yeah, I'm just a binge watcher because, like, I don't have a lot of days.
Kevin
No, I get it. Makes sense.
Sophie Cunningham
Like, lay in bed.
Kevin
Yeah. Kev, what about your week? I did say at this party, I was like, we got to get Kevin.
Sophie Cunningham
Just.
Kevin
Kev can be the third face. Pop in more.
Sophie Cunningham
Wait, was. Was his little way, like, just manhandling Kev, or was Kev like, Kev?
Kevin
Hello, Kev. Can I tell the story of the Face Off?
Wes
Oh, absolutely. Absolutely. Please.
Kevin
So there's this other kid there, and all the kids are kind of. You know when you're just, like, a kid, and you, like, can't really talk, and you just, like, look at each other like, there's no words being said. Dude. So there's this blonde kid coming this way, probably two or three.
Wes
Journey.
Kevin
Journey coming this way. And they look at each other like two. Like two dogs on a walk. Like a sidewalk walk. And they just look at each other, kind of sizing each other up. One of them. One of them kind of goes, ah. Like, makes a little sound. The other one. One ups him a little louder. Then the third goes back to the third yell. He screams again. And then at the same time, they both just screamed at each other like it was a movie right in each other's face. And then they got pulled apart, and I was like, that was just like. I've never seen a face off between kids, like, out screaming each other before. I've never seen that. That was crazy.
Wes
Very much akin to two dogs in the streets. Just like, face off yell. And then they both started crying simultaneously.
Kevin
I think it was unreal.
Wes
Journey might have started that one. That's to be fair. But, you know, two Alphas. Two alphas in a new environment, you know, they're gonna flathead sometimes, you know?
Kevin
Yep. Yep.
Wes
I was planning for my life this weekend. I'm glad everyone had a chill weekend. And my wife was an all star, so I was just. You know, we had, like, three kids parties, so all the parents who are listening, you already know what time it is. So, you know, But I'm still standing. I'm still here. I'm still pretty.
Sophie Cunningham
So what. What was Journey hitting you with? A balloon. On the head.
Kevin
Balloon. I'll send you the video. I recorded it.
Wes
It's been confiscated. It's now behind evidence bars over here.
Sophie Cunningham
I'm surprised you haven't popped that. Should we go into Hot Girl of the Week, then?
Kevin
My. My Hot Girl of the Week. My army's Hot Girl of the Week is. Is Kev. I watched him. I watched him parent all day, and I think that owns Hot Girl of the Week, in my opinion. Chasing a kid around while also getting smashed with a balloon in his head. And it was just. It was cute. I guess I should, in the same vein, give Hot Girl of the Week to Pippa, whose birthday it was. Happy one year. One year on this planet. Pippa.
Sophie Cunningham
I like that.
Kevin
Sweet angel.
Sophie Cunningham
Wes, we should just turn yours into Hot Boy of the Week.
Kevin
No, I've only done two. Two guys. I still want to keep it the hot girl theme. Women. But every once in a while, dude.
Sophie Cunningham
I think after watching Summer House about to have a mic drop, I'm giving mine to freaking Amanda for laying down the motherfucking law. Hell yeah, sister. I followed her on Instagram last night after, and I was like, I'm a big fan now. Big fan.
Kevin
I'll put you on. Wait, that's really. That's a really good one, dude.
Sophie Cunningham
I'm like. I actually, like. I'm like. Because it's not that I didn't. I did I still liked her in other seasons. You know how, like, they called you a bedbug, but, like, they, like, I feel like her, Paige and Sierra, all they did was, like, ever just, like, kind of go in there. So, like, I didn't really. I liked her, but I didn't know. She didn't really do anything, you know? But this season, I'm like, fuck, yeah, Amanda. Like, show your shit. I know. Yeah.
Kevin
That's the first summerhouse hot girl.
Sophie Cunningham
I know, I know.
Kevin
Cosign hard cosign.
Sophie Cunningham
Well, if you're really going, like, physical, hot girl freaking Sierra showed her titties all over Instagram. Like, shout out to to hot girl Sierra, too.
Kevin
Saw it, Clocked it.
Sophie Cunningham
You saw it before everyone else was. Congrats.
Kevin
Oh, man. It's good stuff.
Sophie Cunningham
Okay, hungry people, Arby's just rolled out a new meal deal, and it's about to shake the game up.
Kevin
This meat in three box is going for $7.99. Soph, tell the people what we got going on.
Sophie Cunningham
All right, first you pick your sandwich. Classic roast beef, crispy chicken, or the new crispy fish. Honestly, they all slap.
Kevin
And then Arby's starts bringing the classics. You've got the curly fries, mozzarella sticks.
Sophie Cunningham
In a peach cobbler roll. The dessert might be the real MVP here.
Kevin
Arby's is throwing in a drink too. So, yeah, it's called the meat in three, but that's really, like, an all star starting five.
Sophie Cunningham
Five items for just $7.99, and all the classic RV stuff you love. It's a deal that you can't beat.
Kevin
So whether it's lunch, dinner, or you're just hungry and need something that hits, the Meat in three box has got you covered, Kev. I think we're good to hop right into fricking pop culture, dude.
Wes
Winter Olympics. I'm going to show this crazy ski video. So if you've probably already seen the video anyway, I saw a tweet.
Kevin
I hope I can find it. And it was like, every year, like, Winter Olympics introduces two new sports that could leave you literally paralyzed at any moment. Meanwhile, Summer Olympics just introduces, like, jazz break dancing. They're just like such opposite Olympics. And I was like, that's actually so true. Winter Olympics. Can we agree? 10 times better than Summer dude and.
Sophie Cunningham
Like, a hundred more times dangerous. Like, I. Yeah, that's why. Oh, you don't think so? Gif.
Wes
You know, I love Olympic hoops. Steph Curry, the Night Night in Paris. That show is iconic. That particular one was a good one.
Sophie Cunningham
Overall, though, because I think there's. I think I prefer, like, the beach volleyball, the basketball, the gymnastics in summer. But, like, I just feel like the. The winter is, like, fascinating because you don't get to see it as much.
Wes
Right.
Kevin
Like, we watch basketball essentially year round, and, like, we're not watching mogul skiing. Backflip 360 die that often. Yeah.
Wes
No, that's literally crazy. Curling. All the good.
Kevin
Did you see that? They think Canada's cheating.
Sophie Cunningham
Yes, everything's.
Kevin
Canada's cheating. Canada.
Sophie Cunningham
Wait, guys, I don't. You would never. Yeah.
Kevin
Disrespect curling here. Never.
Sophie Cunningham
I was just about to say I don't. I don't understand the curling.
Kevin
Did. Are you supposed to. Who does. I don't.
Sophie Cunningham
I don't understand how it's like. Like, what makes something first a sport and not a hobby, and second, what makes it and what makes it. Who qualifies it as an Olympic sport?
Wes
Sophie Cunningham goes to war with curling.
Kevin
Please, Sophie, why do you hate curling?
Sophie Cunningham
Shut up, Wes.
Kevin
I didn't.
Sophie Cunningham
I did not say that. I'm just wondering what, like. Like, what makes it. What makes it a sport or a hobby. Like, I'm actually being very curious of.
Kevin
Like, same with, like. But summer has, like, archery and, like, the gun range stuff. And there's.
Sophie Cunningham
There, like, there's unique sports in the Summer Olympics, too. And I think that's a valid question of, like, what. What makes it a sport?
Wes
Like, contest sport.
Sophie Cunningham
Yeah.
Wes
What are the contents of. What is this board? Yeah.
Kevin
Curling has been in the Olympics, I think, since I can remember, so it's not like it was new. Like, I think it's been a thing forever.
Sophie Cunningham
I know.
Kevin
I. I think a lot of. Do you ever play shuffleboard?
Sophie Cunningham
Yeah.
Kevin
Like, it's that, but just like. Like with bigger. Like you humans. I don't know. There's like, a lot of sports that are weird, though.
Sophie Cunningham
That's what I'm saying. Like, and I'm not discrediting these athletes because I know, like, I couldn't do what they're doing, but I just, like, I. I watched some of these things. I'm like, okay, how did that. Or, like, how or why is a tough one.
Wes
There are so many different facets of it. There's skating, which is important right now. The actual little technique, like, anything with technique and skill I think is pretty cool. Then, like, the brushing. Like, when do you know you want to become an Olympic curling brusher? Like, at one point in your life you're, like, brushing your hair. You know what you know what?
Kevin
Wait a minute.
Sophie Cunningham
This is.
Kevin
I've got an idea.
Wes
Yeah, no, the dishes are spotless. You're like, wait a minute.
Sophie Cunningham
Yeah. Wait a second. Found my talent.
Wes
Another headline here for you. Apparently, there are horny people all over the world, including New York.
Sophie Cunningham
Aren't you guys both in New York?
Kevin
Yeah, this study is just us.
Sophie Cunningham
Yeah, Singles mixer where you can body slam your crush.
Wes
It's speed dating mixed with wrestling. All right, so it's. It's for all genders. So 100 people came through.
Kevin
So in.
Wes
And yeah, this was. This was like how you like people's numbers. You walk around, you talk to people, you find somebody you want to match up with, and then you take it to the floor.
Kevin
Well, it just is unfortunate if you get someone gross and stinky, but, like, if it's, like, if it's someone who is cute and fun and you get to, like, roll around. That sounds awesome. Imagine wrestling your crush. What an icebreaker.
Sophie Cunningham
Yeah, but here's my thing. That. Yeah. How fun and, like, kind of flirty and cute and did it. But, like, what are the odds out of all those people you're actually going to find someone you like?
Kevin
I think you'd know. I think you'd know right away.
Sophie Cunningham
Oh. Oh.
Kevin
You get to.
Wes
I was told you get a. You, like, you, like, walk around the room, you approach the people, you talk, you chat, and then you, like. You want to take it to the mat instead of like, do you want to get a drink? You're like, you want to go a few rounds?
Kevin
You know, few rounds?
Wes
Kev, I'm. I'm saying as. As simple maybe, you know, verbat of the mixer. Just say, I wasn't there, babe. I wasn't there this weekend when you.
Kevin
When you weren't here. So we. I. I think it's. I think it's understood that you would probably beat me in one on one, but I think wrestling would be really fun. I think it'd be a good match.
Sophie Cunningham
Dude, I think that. I don't think that. No, I feel like you would dominate me.
Kevin
I've got weight, but I think you have a little more. I think you have a little more fire than I do. Like, if I. If I hit you with, like, an accidental cheap shot, I feel like you'd want to kill me.
Sophie Cunningham
Yeah.
Kevin
Yeah. I think we should. Let's set this up. We're miked. We're, like, doing the pod and wrestling. Dude, can we actually.
Sophie Cunningham
And then we'll go eat at his Chinese restaurant after. True. We need to do Some fun stuff like that. People would love that. Think about that. Yeah.

Wes
Got one for you here. WWE star and influencer Logan Paul sold his rare Illustrator Pokemon card for 16.5 million. That's the new world record.
Kevin
Wait, did you see? I think it's fake, but did you see what he said to Tom Brady?
Wes
No, I didn't see this.
Kevin
They were talking about flag football or whatever in the Olympics, and Tom Brady.
Sophie Cunningham
Was like, oh, my gosh.
Kevin
Tom Brady was like, oh, like, yeah, you're, like, athletic, but, like, these are like, these are real football players. And there's no way Logan Paul is, like, that disconnected from the real world, where he would flex his high school football stats to Tom Brady and then say, like, these NFL guys have never done WWE stunts before. But he said it didn't smile. And then Brady was like, all right, dude. I just don't think because it. They Also tweeted it from. From Logan Paul's podcast account. So, like, I think he was rage baiting. Like, I don't think. But I would never read. I would never, like, stop. Yeah, I would never, like, be a part of that with Tom Brady. Like, I would not do that.
Sophie Cunningham
It's not the time. And, like, there's no way that you're un. Gave Tom a heads up before, but it didn't really look like it. But, dude, it's so weird. Like, it. Honestly, I don't like that because it. It totally. I feel like dis. Like, you sound. So. It's like discrediting yourself. Like, what are you, like, are you that dumb?
Kevin
Yeah. Yeah. And I. His high school stats to Tom Brady. What the fuck?
Sophie Cunningham
And. And I know. I know that it probably is clickbait, but, like, still, like, doing something else. That's clickbait. Not bad. You just sound.
Kevin
All right.
Wes
Last one here for you guys. So six year old from Pennsylvania, Pim Neal, also broke a record this weekend. She managed to sell 87,000 Girl Scout cookies. She's six year old, so. Yeah. How impressive is this record to you guys?
Kevin
Did you sell Girl Scout cookies, Soph?
Sophie Cunningham
No, but I ate a shit ton of them.
Kevin
Yeah, me too. What's your favorite? Say your favorite on three. Okay, we're going to do it. Kev, you might as well do this too.
Sophie Cunningham
Wait, I think. Wait, I think I'm gonna up the name. Okay, go.
Kevin
Three, two, one. Caramel Delights. Okay. Samoas are Caramel Delights, but they change it from Samoa to Caramel Delight. Yeah.
Sophie Cunningham
What. What were the. Oh, Thin Mints. Thin Mints. That was mine.
Kevin
Never changed.
Sophie Cunningham
Thin Mints, baby.
Kevin
Always been thin.
Wes
If you're selling Thin Mints, I feel good about that. Like, when you unbox your box, like, which ones did I get?
Kevin
I was like, oh, it's gonna be.
Sophie Cunningham
A good Thin Mints, baby. And you'd get enough where you had some in the freezer, some in the pantry. So if you wanted cold or.
Kevin
Yes. Carmel delights. R.I.P. dude, I gave three sleeves.
Sophie Cunningham
Oh, that actually sounds really good.
Kevin
You know what she said.
Sophie Cunningham
I don't. I think I like the majority of Girl Scout cookies, though. I think the only ones I'm not really like, a big fan of are, like, the lemon ones, maybe.
Kevin
Mm.
Sophie Cunningham
But other ones. Yeah, the other ones are, like, pretty good.
Wes
Then you do.
Kevin
I didn't finish. It was a lot. I didn't quit. Like, like, up and leave. I, like, waited till a year. A calendar year was overnight. Focus on Football?
Sophie Cunningham
Yeah.
Kevin
Kindergarten. My dad has his Eagle Scout, though, which means you make it to, like, as high up as you could ever be.
Sophie Cunningham
Oh, Bruce.
Kevin
Yeah, no surprise. They just have. They'll never go away because then where do the cookies go?
Sophie Cunningham
That's what I'm saying.
Kevin
Like, they will exist forever, dude.
Sophie Cunningham
I was walking out of the grocery store, though, and you know how they're, like, all lined up typically, they're all lined up with, like, their tents and stuff. And I think I was there, like, late into the evening, and this girl, this poor little girl, like, she was just exhausted. Her hair was everywhere, her head was on the table. And she goes, do you want a Girl Scout cookie? And I was like, what'd you say? I was like. I was like, oh, what do you have? And she goes, I don't know. And I was like, oh, okay. I was like, like. But she was like, over it. She goes, okay. And I was like. I was like, do you have any. I think I said, do you have any Thin Mints left? And she. She was like. She goes, no, you should have got here earlier because we sold them out. Like, they were so sassy. I was like, okay, like, I'm sorry. I was like, well, good luck with everything. I left. And she's like. And then when I left, I heard her go, this was. This was Super Bowl Sunday.
Wes
Do you think I'd be standing here outside if I had Thin Mints?
Sophie Cunningham
Yeah, I was like, my bad dud, like, going through it.
Wes
She's not Pim, Neal. Okay, well, shout out to Pim and your record breaking. And then shout out to all the girls out there. Still. Still slanging.
Sophie Cunningham
I like that.
Wes
Keep your heads up.
