Today it is August 6, 2025, 1:40pm sharp. Remote. Remote time. I love it. I think we do this all the time. Why? There's no need for us to be in an office ever. I think we're just, you know, this is my office, this is home base, and I'm trying to be here as much as possible.
Roan
It's also funny, you just like kind of like looking down. Like it's like zoomed in. Obviously you're looking at the screen, but it's like zoomed into your forehead. Just seems like you're hacking into the mainframe. But I think people are going to be excited to see that. That's the most people have ever seen of your apartment. Exposed beams, the couch, the tv.
Harry
The most they'll ever see. I don't like that.
Roan
Yeah, go down a little bit. We want to see what's on the floor. What's that, a Coleman stove in the background? What's over your left shoulder?
Harry
No, it's with my PC's box.
Francis
Gotta hold on to that.
Harry
It said to save the box. I don't know why, but I'm kind of just holding on to it. I mean, I should throw it away, but I don't feel like breaking it down.
Francis
Did you buy the warranty?
Harry
I don't remember.
Francis
I'm sure I would say just, yeah, hold on to the box until the warranty expires.
Roan
To your Elizabeth warranty expires.
Harry
And return it.
Francis
Yeah. Hey, Ron, I gotta, I. I went and saw Harry at his home.
Harry
Yeah, true. He did a massive invasion of space.
Roan
No, he didn't.
Francis
Just went over there. Yeah.
Roan
What happened?
Francis
Didn't even tell him I was coming. I just showed up.
Roan
What? What?
Francis
I stood outside of his window and yelled up I went, harry, Harry.
Harry
Yeah. And so I just had gotten home. I was in Massachusetts, and I just got back, like, literally, like, five minutes before. And I was, like, sitting at my desk just kind of, like, decompressing for, like, two seconds before I had to go return the rental car. And then I hear someone yelling my name from outside. And I. In my. Like, my immediate thought was, like, I'm gonna have to move. I was like, so do people, like, know where I live now? And then I like. And I still, like. The whole time, I'm like this. And then they yelled my. He said, harry, settle. And I was like, what the. And then. I don't know why. It took me, like, a minute to realize, but then I was like, oh, wait, that's just Francis's voice. And then I just went outside and saw him.
Roan
You're in the neighborhood.
Francis
Then I went in and I rang his doorbell, at which point I saw him coming down, and he. He walked out. And I thought he would. You know, I thought he would be excited to see me and talk to me, but he sort of just walked past me and started walking down the sidewalk to the point where I had to. Then that's not at all what I had to catch up to him to keep our conversation going.
Harry
I'm at his home uninvited. Uninvited? You were at my home?
Francis
Yeah, but, like, you know.
Harry
No, we talked for, like, yeah, I.
Francis
Was in the neighborhood, and I wanted to say hi. Like, what's up, man? And you're like, hey, not much. Just got home, and he's walking away from me.
Harry
I was walking to the car, and I'm like.
Francis
I'm like, where are you going? And he's like, oh, I got my rental car. I gotta take it back. And I'm like, are we gonna have a conversation at all right now? Is there any conversation that we can have for free? Even just a minute? Just say hi to me.
Harry
You know, I will say, like, I think I handled it poorly. Like, I think I handled it pretty much as awkward as you possibly could.
Roan
Default setting for you.
Francis
You know, I paid. I paid a house call. And by the way, I didn't expect to necessarily see you. I wasn't going to wait until someone opened the door and then come up to your door, which I've done before. I've done that before to wake you up for roan.com, but of course. But I wasn't gonna do that. I figured if you didn't answer, you wouldn't be home. But instead of like answering or open. I thought you might open the window. You didn't. You just came downstairs.
Roan
Because I.
Harry
Because I didn't know who it was. And then as I was like, I'm gonna go downstairs. Because I had to go downstairs anyway to return the car. And I was gonna. My plan originally was I was gonna go downstairs, and if it was a stranger, I was gonna be like, yo, you can't do that. Like, that was gonna be my plan. And then while I was leaving my apartment, I was like, oh, wait, that was definitely Francis.
Francis
Yeah. I mean, you.
Roan
You.
Francis
I would say you gave me one shade higher than, yo, you can't do that. You pretty much dismissed me out of hand.
Roan
No.
Harry
And went on to your car for like 15 minutes.
Francis
I had to walk to your rental car.
Harry
It was across the street. It's right there.
Francis
But I. But I didn't know at that time that we would actually. You'd actually give me the time of day at the rental car. I had to catch up. I had to run to you.
Harry
Got to make sure she wasn't getting towed.
Roan
Francis. What were you doing in his neighborhood?
Francis
Just walking. Just walking around. Just out for a stroll. And I. I like walking around that part of New York.
Harry
And who doesn't?
Francis
Sometimes I'll just walk down Harry's, you know, his house, sort of past it, just to see, you know, is he in there? What's he doing? Does he want to hang out? And a lot of the time it's pretty much a hard no.
Harry
I honestly, like, there's so many thoughts going through my head at the moment. Like, initially it was, you know, who is this? Then it was like, oh, this is Francis. And then it was like, my apartment's never been this messy ever. There's no fucking way he's coming up here.
Roan
I don't believe that.
Harry
That Francis, you can vouch for. You yelled and I came down immediately. I was down there.
Francis
No, but he was on his way down.
Harry
There's no. There was no chance of anyone coming up.
Francis
I mean, look, we all know the only way you can, you know, actually get a view into Harry's apartment when it's messy is if you're a five year old girl asking for your mother. And of course I am not that I'm too old and too male for Harry to give me a peek.
Harry
Too old. Too blind. I'm too damn blind.
Roan
I think that when we were doing the walk through New York, we were very close to, like, taking a pilgrimage past your apartment. But then I realized that your apartment would then wind up on the Celebrities of New York tour. And there would be double decker buses winding through the West Village as people like as Hungarians hung over the sides with binoculars trying to catch a view. And they probably could because you're on the second floor. True docs.
Francis
So this building behind me you can see is home to notorious recluse hairy little Sasquatch Settle. Legend has it he hasn't left his home in 14 years.
Roan
Just shaking a stick at them out the window.
Francis
One of the things he is the Osama bin Laden of the West Village.
Roan
A tall ass wall around his apartment.
Harry
I gotta get one of those. You need a kill for that.
Roan
But one of the things that gave me pause in your. In your story was you said that you got inside and you had to decompress. So you sat down at your desk for two minutes. Why would you sit down at your desk to decompress when you have that plush couch behind you? Why wouldn't you just like collapse?
Harry
I don't sit there ever. I can't even tell you the last time I said, why would I sit on the couch when I've got 16 gigabytes of RAM looking me right in the eyes? I got no need for a couch anymore. I don't even use the tv. I just use my second monitor. What do you watch?
Roan
Ball.
Harry
On my monitor. Just the. It's an unbelievable setup. Yeah. Show you a photo of it right now.
Francis
You sit and watch. You're going to watch TV this fall in a computer chair at a desk.
Harry
When you're a busy guy like me, it's. It's hard to get away from the computer, you know.
Roan
That's security guard behavior.
Harry
You got. Oh yeah, I've got cameras.
Roan
That's ridiculous. A swivel chair. Watch.
Harry
That's not gonna focus. You get the gist. Preseason.
Francis
You look like a fucking Trader Snowden Monitor. The goal. Japanese market, you know.
Harry
That is the goal. I made another big purchase this week. In terms of the tech. In terms of tech.
Francis
Yeah.
Harry
I got a like a Steam Deck type thing. It's pretty much just a handheld PC. It's fucking awesome.
Francis
What does that do?
Harry
It's everything you want it to do.
Roan
You can game on the go.
Harry
You can game on the go, but you could also like. I could like edit a video on it. Because it's not actually a Steam Deck. It's called a Rog Ally. It's The Rog ally 7 inch. Just a beautiful piece of equipment.
Roan
You want to see it?
Harry
It's in my room. Fell asleep Playing. Fell asleep playing Halo last night.
Roan
We could chat for a second while you go do that.
Francis
Yeah, go grab it.
Harry
I'll go get it.
Francis
We want to see the steam deck.
Roan
Are you in your upstate?
Harry
Turning my camera off.
Francis
Yeah, I'm upstate. I'm upstate. There's just a lot of foliage outside the window, you know, trees, wildlife, bird life. Not a whole lot, you know, Not a whole lot. I can't see.
Roan
Have the leaves started falling? Are the leaves falling yet?
Francis
No, we're still a few months. You know what I'll say though? And tell me what? If this is true in the city. I mean the big city that you're in. Are you guys experiencing a lot of smog from the Canada wildfires?
Harry
Where is upstate?
Francis
Dude, I can't see anything. I mean, crazy. It is the sun. I'm not kidding you. There's not a cloud in the sky. The sun is opaque.
Harry
Really? Is it. Is it. Is it going to make its way down to the big city if you don't have it?
Francis
Albany at the city. I'd be surprised that. I guess that's what I was wondering.
Harry
I haven't been outside today, so I don't know how we could have it bad. I could. I could open those curtains and it could be black outside.
Francis
I love that Roan and I angled our lenses of our cameras or put our computers facing us so that the light hits us and you're just like in full blown.
Roan
Yeah.
Harry
Really nothing. There's nothing I can do about it.
Francis
You're just a shadow.
Harry
I think you guys.
Roan
I mean, with the camera, you got darker somehow. You went. You look like Justin Trudeau. You went missing my face for a half second.
Harry
If I cover it up more, it works better.
Roan
Yeah, they'll like backlit. You look like a silhouette.
Harry
I know. Nothing I can do about it.
Francis
Fellas.
Harry
I apologize.
Roan
See the deck? Let's see the Steam deck.
Harry
Oh, yeah.
Roan
Jesus.
Francis
Oh, that looks a game. Video game.
Harry
Yeah, it's a game, but it's literally a PC. Look at this.
Roan
You're not editing videos on that.
Francis
What are you talking about?
Harry
It's legit because I. You hook it up to the portable monitor. Bring the keyboard, bring the mouse. It's a full on computer. I'll show you. It's like the home screen is Windows. Is Windows 11. I know you boys are still on the Mac wave. It's time to let that die Windows into the future.
Francis
You're selecting which Internet browser to use with the X button.
Harry
No, it's touch screen too.
Francis
Oh, okay. All right.
Harry
Oh, yeah.
Roan
You're gonna edit on a touch screen, though. I just don't see you. I don't see you edit. You should edit this episode on that just to prove. Prove us wrong.
Harry
Well, I'm not. Obviously, I wouldn't use these controls, but see, it's literally just. It's just a computer.
Francis
I asked Harry when I saw him, I said, do you want to come for a little bit more of. You want to go for a walk or something? You want to go get, like, a iced tea? Coffee is what I said. You want to get an iced tea at one of these outdoor cafes and catch up? And he goes, nah, man. I've been. I've been on the road. Like, I've been driving for hours. I gotta decompress. I gotta go play video games for like, a while at least.
Harry
And I did. And it was a great night.
Francis
Might have been the most beautiful day of the year.
Harry
Could have been.
Francis
And he was like, dude, I can't be outside any longer.
Harry
Well, I had to go back to Massachusetts, and then I had to go to Atlanta the next day. And I just got back from Atlanta last night. And then we recorded our first episode of our Me, Mook and Jerry's new project, which will come out tomorrow. Recorded that about 11pm kind of shit. I'm on now. You can stop grinding. What's up?
Francis
Have you announced this?
Harry
I mean, nothing more than what we talked about on the pod with kb.
Roan
And Nick will tell us more about it.
Harry
I mean, the. Everyone will, like, you'll hear about it in the video. Like, we pretty much decided just to start from now rather than, like, building it all up and trying to get all the logistics handled. Because I think part of the entertaining part will be us just figuring it out. So we, like, worked through some names. We worked through, like, what our goals were for the year and all that. And we're gonna. Hopefully we're gonna put out, like, a little call to action if anyone wants to try out. And then we'll do tryouts for a while, narrow it down to our four demons.
Roan
Cool. I think that you might have more projects than me and Francis right now.
Francis
Yeah.
Harry
Oh, yeah. Busy.
Roan
You literally. You do. You have out of order. The outdoor mascots?
Harry
What's the outdoors?
Roan
The fishing stuff?
Harry
Just going fishing?
Roan
No, the videos that you've done. You did videos with Sydney. You did the videos in Chicago.
Harry
Yeah, but that doesn't. I mean, that's easy. That's light work. This is more of a.
Roan
This is a passion sticks in the fire you have a lot of sticks in the fire.
Harry
I'm just trying to get rich quick.
Roan
Well, I'm. I'm just worried that you're like. Is stand up dead? Like, what's going on, bro? Did you.
Francis
Did you.
Harry
Oh, no, I'm still doing stand up. I got a bunch of dates coming up in the fall.
Roan
Bro, that almost popped.
Harry
No, no, I'm literally doing four show. I'm doing four shows in New York at Rodney's, and then I'm doing. I think I'm doing Zany's, Nashville. I'm going to Chicago again. Big cities.
Francis
Wow.
Harry
Big things. This is a big year. I. I toured super aggressively in the beginning of the year, too.
Roan
And how are ticket sales? Because I'm hearing. I'm hearing that the bubble is.
Harry
I don't know. I just. I'm just getting my. I'm dipping my pen in all the ink.
Roan
Francis, are you. Don't you kind of notice that he has, like, this uptick in, like, outward energy? Like, what is. Or like, the fact, Dude.
Francis
I mean, I'll say this, like, every time I come over to his house. He's not. He's too tired to hang out. And I. You know, I. I mean, he's legitimately, like, I have to return a rental car. I have to. I just got off a plane from Atlanta doing this. You know, it's. It. It feels a little bit like a father that is deciding to detach from his own family.
Roan
I can relate.
Francis
Like, you know, quietly. He's met someone and is basically trying to let us down slowly and generally.
Roan
Oh, we're his family.
Francis
I. I think I am. I think I.
Roan
So we're the ones who. But we're the ones who are getting detached from.
Francis
Yeah, he doesn't. He told me. He was like, guys, what do you. Where do you see the pod going? We're at a point now where, like, let's have an honest conversation.
Harry
What is this worth continuing?
Francis
You know, it's not what it used to be. Like, I feel like we've all outgrown it. This is all false.
Harry
All of these are lies, literally. What's the format? All I'm doing.
Roan
What's the format with you, Jerry and Mook? Is it a zoom podcast? Because that's exactly what we're doing right now.
Harry
No, it's not going to be, like, a traditional. Like, it's not going to be like a podcast. Like, it will be the. What we're putting out tomorrow will be exactly what we're doing right now. But, I mean, but that's just like. It's kind of just more of like an explanation of like, this is the project, but it's not going to be like a podcast format thing. Like, it's definitely not going to be like a weekly basis, like, oh, we got to record this again. You know, it's going to be like when something is happening, we will be recording.
Francis
All right, listen, I'm not afraid to say it. I miss you. I miss when you didn't have so much going on. And I regret that I used to sort of joke that you didn't do that much because this version of you is not the one that I like.
Harry
No, me neither. But on the bright side, the out of order, we're like, pretty much done filming. Atlanta was like the last big thing. And, yeah, so my time will free up a lot. That's pretty much where 99 of my time has been.
Roan
Francis, we are the wife that was like, get off the couch. Like, go. Go do. Get a hobby. Go do something. Take up golf. And now all he does is golf now. He found multiple hobbies. He's now a doorsman. He's. It's. It's. We're left in the dust. We're empty nesters now.
Harry
My only hobby right now is just making cash. That's the goal here. We're just trying to get out of the gutter.
Francis
Cash.
Harry
No, but we're going to. You'll see how this. This league is. We're taking over. Everything is changing from here. It's no more USB mics, guys. We're all going to have our own personal studios.
Francis
Is it sort of like a making the band or like a. An American Idol of video games?
Harry
In a way.
Francis
Well, that's a cool concept.
Harry
Yeah, it is. Like, I like. It's pretty much we're starting an organization for Call of Duty.
Francis
That's. Oh, you're starting like a team, like an Optic or.
Harry
And me, Jerry and Mook are running it. And then my friends, some couple of my buddies are going to be involved too.
Francis
Are you gonna recruit players that are better than you?
Harry
Oh, absolutely. Yeah. That's like.
Roan
So, Francis, you could play.
Francis
Is that why you didn't send me the email?
Harry
Because you're afraid that emails haven't been sent out yet? But no, it's gonna be that. This won't be like. Like, I'm not even in the. In the same realm as these guys.
Francis
This is gonna be like Mark Wahlberg trying out for the Eagles. Yeah, I'll be like, I got. I gotta clean up the. I know that's not a Philly accent, but, you know, somehow I come out there and like my, you know, in my painters overalls and just kill streak everyone.
Roan
I wouldn't be surprised. I'm looking forward to it. But I'm also a little bit hurt that you're doing all this stuff without, without me and Francis. But Francis, I know that you're working on stuff without me and Harry too. And yeah, I know, I know that you're. I know that you're building things and I know that your, your stand up bubble hasn't popped and I know that you're. Can you talk about what you're, what you're writing?
Francis
Just helping Dave on his book. That's really kind of it that's coming along and I feel like you're making.
Roan
That seem like a very like, passive thing. Like, ah, just. But I feel like you're definitely being very active with that, you know.
Francis
I mean, it's Dave's book and it's fun to sort of have, you know, read the stuff that he's putting out and learn a lot about barstool and like stuff that I've heard of but had not been exposed to. Like behind. There's so many layers behind the layers that were, were known and kind of walking down like a memory lane of 2013, 14, 15 right now. It's pretty cool. Yeah.
Roan
Do you have to, like, how do you, like, do you have to get into the headspace of Dave? Do you have to method act as him and like buy some horses and like fat shame some slobs or something or like, how do you.
Francis
I am just a vessel for Dave's, you know, mind and his, his. He, you know, he's leading the charge on this is his book very much. And I'm just trying to lend whatever bullshit, like writing stuff I've. I've got to this project. So that's it. That's all.
Roan
There's a lot of combos with Dave. You talk with Dave.
Francis
I just had a meeting with him right before this.
Harry
And why is he not on the podcast then?
Francis
He doesn't.
Harry
You couldn't have just, you couldn't have just dragged him along or just added. You could have just added us to the meeting. We could have just gone from there.
Francis
He is still unaware that I am part of Son of a. But the Internet Invitational is next week and I'm going to be staying in a house with him. They put me in the same Airbnb with Dave.
Harry
Damn.
Francis
What. So I'm thinking We're gonna.
Harry
What are you gonna do? What are you gonna do if he has to borrow toothpaste?
Francis
Well, with Dave what I'll do is I'll probably cut the bottom of the toothpaste and let him squeeze out from the bottom and I'll squeeze from the top and then we'll meet in the middle at some point. Look, I'm not worried about sharing toothpaste with Dave, okay? Dave is not going to eat fucking Burger King at two in the morning.
Harry
And you know that.
Francis
What if you big what if dog bites?
Harry
What if Dave's. What if your idea of Dave is just complete? Like, what if his lifestyle is identical to mooks? What would you do with that? Like, would you have to step away from the book?
Francis
I think it would mean that I would doubt everything I've learned about what it takes to become successful in the world. Yeah. Because how could a man like Dave become as successful as he is if he's living moocs lifestyle, which is to me a recipe for not being successful.
Roan
Moocs.
Harry
Moocs lifestyle has cleaned up drastically.
Francis
Has it now?
Harry
Oh yeah.
Roan
I don't believe that it has.
Harry
He doesn't eat it like any. He doesn't eat any good food anymore. We play video games and it's just chicken and rice. That's what I mean.
Roan
He did lose weight. I know he, he lost a little bit of weight. But it is weird to see Dave, he's such a behemoth figure that it's weird to see Dave in other circumstances. Like when I did that diss track in, in Florida. He drove me in his car from the studio to, to his house and it was just weird to even see him drive. Like I didn't even know he could drive.
Harry
I never even considered it that he.
Roan
Drives or like that he could like cook a piece of food or like it's like seeing your teacher ass naked or something like that. It was just like a little bit jarring. Like I didn't, I didn't know he could even just had it, had his own car. Like I expect Mike the security guy to be driving everywhere.
Harry
How was he behind the wheel?
Roan
He was reckless.
Francis
Yeah.
Roan
I was like, Dave Davis.
Francis
Red.
Roan
It's red. I was like, Dave, you're pulling up. It was like one of those double decker car, like double decker trucks that carry a bunch of cars on it. But it was like it was empty and it was a red light. I was like, dave, Dave, Dave, it's red. And he gunned it. He went over, he went up the ramp on the back and did like a Fast and the Furious kind of.
Harry
That's awesome. I never jumped.
Francis
Everybody knows. Everybody knows dead spin runs the traffic lights around here. I'm not stopping for that.
Harry
Is he a. Is he an outside lane guy or an inside lane? Like, is he hugging. Is he hugging the other cars or is he hugging the mailboxes?
Roan
Just like his politics. Perfectly centered. Really? Yeah. Right down the middle.
Harry
My God.
Roan
People. Well, people thought that he was leaning a little bit towards the right, but if you actually get behind him, you'll see he's deadly centered.
Harry
Yeah.
Roan
Dead center.
Francis
Very.
Roan
He said there's crazies on both sides of the highway. What are you saying, Francis? I'm sorry.
Francis
Well, I tried. No, you were telling. Sorry I interrupted. I was on the highway the other day and for whatever reason, I just decided I was going to not drive that fast. And I got behind a car. I think the speed limit was like 55. You know, I was on the Taconic and I think it was 55. And I think I went about like 54. And I did that for maybe half an hour or so. And I thought, this is what it feels like to be hairy, except you're in the left lane.
Harry
If I'm in the left lane, I'm pushing 115.
Francis
No, it's not true. I did find it leisurely. I thought, why have I been in a rush all of this time? Why do I feel the need to pass cars on the highway? Why does that feel like progress to me?
Harry
I mean, I think it's. You realize that going that fast is not really worth it, especially when you consider that you're going to get there a minute before the other people.
Francis
Right? No.
Harry
Also, if you're leading into dead stopped traffic, going super fast doesn't do anything because you're always going to end up in the traffic.
Francis
I completely agree. I guess for me though, if I've made that choice, the right lane feels more comfortable.
Harry
Absolutely.
Francis
So I don't know why you do it.
Harry
I typically just take the shoulder.
Francis
The.
Harry
Rightest lane, alt right. I like to drive in the alt right.
Roan
The Q and A lane.
Francis
It's.
Roan
I, I'm often late and so that's why I would rush. But I am getting to a point where I'm like, what the am I? Why am I rushing for?
Harry
Yeah, I see those people weaving in and out. You're just like, you're a idiot.
Roan
So I got cut off by probably like a 65 year old guy and I honked my Horn at him. And he hit me with this middle finger, thumb straight out.
Harry
The Slim Shady.
Roan
The Slim Shady? Yeah. Like the L perfect right angle, middle finger out the windows.
Harry
It's like all the fingers are involved.
Roan
Yeah. The eight Mile one. Him and Britney Murphy both have you dude guy line.
Harry
Oh yourself man.
Roan
The guy hit me with the. The hard one with the. With the thumb up and I wound up next to him. And so like with the middle finger. I feel like there's only one thing that you could hit back that has the same type of gravitas. And I hit. So I hit him with the. With this with the. Your dick is too small. You got a tiny ass dick. And I feel like it's universal. Like if someone held this up to you outside of your car, would you get what they were talking about?
Harry
Absolutely.
Roan
He had like a 17 year old riding shotgun. And then the 17 year old started flipping me off with the L2.
Commercial Announcer
Wow.
Roan
It was a family affair. They had this tiny ass car like surfer bumper stickers. And they were just flipping me off super hard while I was tiny dicking them back.
Francis
What about the ages? What about that NBA thing where you're like too small. You're too small.
Roan
Yeah, yeah.
Harry
You gotta roll. You might have to roll the window down for that.
Francis
Yeah.
Roan
Dangling the handout.
Francis
Say too small. Your car's too small.
Roan
It was. I mean thumbs up is passive aggressive. This the AOK has been co opted by. By the right lane. And there's not a lot of other stuff that you could do that's just like a hand gesture. The Dikeme Mutombo Wag was. Was taken out by the. That was outlawed by the NBA quite some time ago. That's automatic fine. So there's not a ton you could do.
Harry
I think you got to start going gun to your own head. Gonna kill myself. When you get cut off.
Roan
Just apologize. Feel so empathetic.
Harry
You're just not that serious.
Roan
I'm sorry. You can get in front of me.
Francis
Dark place right now.
Harry
The Peaky blinders.
Francis
My car was my only place of peace in solitude. So you ruined it.
Roan
That's fucking genius. I don't know. I never thought of that.
Francis
Harry hit us up yesterday and was like, guys, bad news. I can't make it into the studio. We got to record remote. And as a result he told me that we had to have these microphones in order to improve the audio quality.
Harry
I believe I'm the only one in New York City actively. Just want to clear that up.
Roan
Let's not let the Truth get in the way of your story?
Harry
Yeah, I'm ready to roll. I could be in studio.
Francis
Well, Harry was like, we can't. I can't leave my apartment and come in because the Canadian wildfires are. The air quality is not good for at risk groups. That's what it says on your phone, by the way. It's like air quality bad for people who are at risk or whatever. And I think given the state of Harry's lungs due to his various habits.
Harry
Yeah, not me. That ain't me.
Francis
Probably best to stay inside.
Roan
Harry Marley.
Francis
Yeah.
Harry
Very funny, guys. Very funny.
Francis
So anyway, Harry was like, can you go get a microphone? And I was like, dude, I don't. I don't have a microphone. And he goes, well, you can get one at any, any Walmart or any Best Buy or whatever. Guess how close the nearest Walmart was? Guess how far I had to drive yesterday.
Harry
How far?
Francis
An hour and 10 minutes.
Harry
Should have thought that out before you got up to upstate.
Francis
I spent two and a half hours in the car getting this stupid microphone.
Harry
Well, it sounds phenomenal. Well, wouldn't hate you sending over that link. Actually might need to get one myself.
Roan
You basically had to go back to the city to get a microphone?
Francis
Pretty much. Pretty much.
Harry
I mean, I just don't know how you can have this job and not own a microphone.
Francis
I have owned this type of a microphone on three separate occasions. Every single time. So much time elapses between me using it that I get rid of it.
Harry
Ah, bad idea. Hold on to them.
Francis
I'm a purger, Harry. I like to keep my life lean. I want my belongings to be as few as possible.
Harry
When I have seven microphones, When I.
Francis
See something, especially something that has wires that I haven't used in months, if not more than a year, I try to get rid of it.
Harry
I. I still have my blue Yeti from high school and I haven't used it in a decade.
Roan
Cool. Why the did you need a blue Yeti in high school?
Harry
I don't remember.
Francis
I.
Roan
Probably just one project.
Francis
Yeah.
Harry
If you're going to trade crypto, you're going to want to do it right. No sketchy platforms.

Winner gets 200 to the son of a Boy dad store. And everybody, only one person has got it right. Someone said, what color would you say that is?
Francis
Like a gray teal.
Roan
Great.
Francis
Okay, yeah. Aquamarine or something.
Roan
Someone said aquamarine. Dude. Someone.
Francis
Come on.
Roan
Someone said aquamarine.
Francis
Oh, shout out. It is a viori shirt. But this is an ad for Chad Juan Pablo.
Roan
Aquamarine. That's insane. I was gonna take blue.
Francis
I'm going aquamarine. I'm gonna call it aquamarine. I guess I don't even really know what that is.

Harry
No, it's not.
Francis
Yep.
Roan
Dude, the ultimate trust is.
Harry
But, yeah, I mean, I have so many microphones. I also offered. I said I could give you a microphone.
Francis
What was I gonna do, drive all the way back to your city? You won't let me in.
Harry
Save some money. I could have dropped it out the window.
Francis
Yeah, that's how you would have done it.
Roan
You could take the rental car halfway. Just drive halfway upstate.
Harry
It looks like you've got a real fancy microphone.
Francis
Run.
Roan
This is the road.
Harry
Do tell.
Roan
Audio file, bro. You're telling the R slash audio files. We go, audio, R slash audio files. And it's like, they'll just. It. The videos in there are crazy. There's, like, a group of audio files that are obsessed sexually with audio equipment. Like, there'll be videos of, like, 60 dudes just sitting in front of a speaker. All of them just, like, filming the speaker as it blasts noise at them. But these guys are like, it has to be, like, a light layer of autism that you can even experience sound in such an intense way because they're like, why is this record from 1950 so much like sharper and like, people will have the answers. They're like, they're using tube technology, but also it was recorded by an orchestra all in the same room simultaneously with very few microphones. Fascinating community, but yeah, they said the bad boy. These roads are the best. So what's it called?
Harry
The road Road.
Roan
Like Hillary Baldwin's makeup line. R O D E. Or I guess hers is R H O D E. Love it.
Harry
Great piece of tech.
Francis
Hey, I've been going down a major UFC rabbit hole for some reason, and it's just been feeding a lot of clips to me on my Instagram and stuff. And I have a question for you both.
Harry
Do ask.
Francis
If you were to square off against a 100 pound UFC woman I'm losing, do you think you'd have a shot?
Roan
I'd lose to the worst one.
Francis
Dude. 100 pounds is like the smallest person you've ever seen.
Harry
100 pounds is pretty light. I don't even think 100 pound person would be able to take me down unless they just like went straight from my balls.
Francis
What about 110 pounds? What's the cut off? Like, I'm in big. I'm in trouble.
Harry
110.
Roan
These are, these women are, are like, they know the pressure points, you know what I mean? These are basically glorified massage therapists, but they'll be able to take her your thumb and like bend it in like such a way that you will be brought to your knees like these. Anyone that studies Jiu jitsu might as well be studying magic. Like they could learn. They know all these little things that we just don't know where. It's like, yeah, obviously your standard hundred pound woman, you Spartan kick into the abyss. But like someone who knows a little bit about who knows like the tiniest amount of Jiu jitsu is bending you.
Harry
Yeah, I mean, yeah, I agree with Ron. I mean, anyone who's trained in Jiu jitsu is gonna smoke somebody who.
Roan
Francis.
Harry
You think that you experience.
Francis
Oh, I don't. I don't think. I don't know what my answer is. My guess would be that they. To your point, A woman who's 100 pounds and is in the UFC is gonna turn my ankle 180 degrees around like it's the neck of an owl.
Harry
But I think, like, I agree, but also it's like £100 is like Francis. Like, I mean, you could just go like that.
Francis
I'm £210. Are they so fast that they could get into, you know, my neck or whatever?
Harry
I don't think it would have to be like a surprise attack now.
Roan
FR you're beating them. You are because you're big and athletic and muscular. Me and sass. I'm sorry. Well, I don't even have to limp. Lump you in with me. No, you can group me in bag of milk. That would like clatter like Lincoln Logs. Dude. If she got like a hold of my shoulder, my arm would pop off like a Ken doll.
Harry
Like, I mean, I like a, a kid that plays like AAU basketball. If they crossed me up, I'm out, I'm done. So it's like if this 100 pound fighter is, is like quick at all, I'm. Maybe I could stop them if they were coming directly at me.
Roan
I think a razor scooter to my shin could kill me.
Harry
Absolutely.
Francis
I think, I think a 100 pound woman in the UFC is probably what, 5ft at most in height? You're talking about three maybe you're talking about a reach advantage. That, and everyone says that reach is the thing that really changes fights. Reach advantage is, is crazy. I don't, you know, to me it would be like defending myself against a doll.
Harry
Like a big bad golden retriever.
Francis
Yeah. I, I don't know. May. Maybe it's a pitbull. And if that's the case, then yeah, I'm in trouble, but I'm just kicking it. I'm just kind of.
Harry
Yeah, get away more just. Yeah, you're more just like get. Be like just moving them back.
Roan
Yeah. I'll say this, Francis. If you had to be in that situation, the punch that you would be able to deliver to this woman's face would probably be so satisfying if you had to do it because she was attacking you and this is a sanctioned combat. That knockout blow that like you turning your hips and actually punching her in the face will probably feel like a billion dollars.
Francis
I agree, but I don't know if I'd be. I actually don't know if I'd be able to hit her. You know what I mean? Because she is so quick, quick and dodgy and able that I would think that that's what she's best at.
Harry
You think, though? Because I'm feeling now I'm starting to think we're giving these guys a little too much credit. I mean, £100 versus £210. Feels like you're gonna win that every single time.
Francis
You just pick them up and throw them.
Harry
Yeah.
Roan
Just blow on them like birthday candles.
Harry
I mean, you could just grab. You could get, like, both of their legs in one hand, Just.
Francis
Twist them.
Roan
Around your head like a helicopter.
Francis
Like, beat them into a tree. Like I'm trying to dry a carpet or something.
Roan
Just the.
Harry
The back and forth.
Roan
I think a chest punch would probably be really satisfying, too, for you, because there's less of the ability to duck that they try and duck your chest punch, you wind up catching them in the head, you know?
Francis
Yeah. Yeah.
Roan
I feel like those are your best moves.
Francis
Well, I got. I got another. I got another question like this. I think this. Here's another question. So I stopped by this stone yard up here. You guys know stone yards and say they sell.
Roan
They sell stone.
Francis
We talked about this on the pub. We talked about stone masons. And I reached out.
Harry
Yes, yes.
Francis
I found this awesome stone yard. And what do you think that, like, they make, you know, patios and all that? What do you think that their number one best, most valuable part of their.
Harry
Business is, like, what they sell the most?
Francis
Yeah.
Roan
Is it the pebbles that they, like, put out front of a house?
Harry
I like that. I'm gonna go with. I feel like it's got to be something in the bathroom some, and it's got to be something in the kitchen.
Roan
Granite slabs for countertops or swords. Swords. Swords.
Harry
Is it shields?
Francis
Since when did. Are there stone swords? I think you're. You're mixing up the sword in the stone.
Roan
No, the stone and the sword. It was called the stone and the sword.
Harry
Is it. They're. They're building the stones that trap the swords for eternity?
Roan
No, just condensing a bunch of stone. We need a really strong stone.
Harry
Until eventually a special needs child walks by, and they're the one that can lift it.
Francis
Now the. The answer is grave headstones.
Harry
Oh, I could see that for sure.
Francis
People die constantly, and everyone wants a headstone to mark and, you know, here lies Edith, and she is beloved mother. Whatever. So that's the biggest thing. And they. These guys were awesome. I worked with them. They. They put. They built me a table, and they finished the table. It's 5ft by 3ft with a stone base.
Harry
How much does it weigh?
Francis
How much do you think this thing weighs?
Harry
200 pounds.
Roan
Wait, say that. Say. Say the measurements again.
Francis
5Ft by 3ft top with a stone base. That's kind of like a T. It's like a crossed two legs underneath.
Roan
That's gotta be like 350.
Harry
Yeah, I was gonna go 300 just because I'm thinking, how many UFC fight. How many female UFC fighters that would equal.
Roan
Three. Three female UFC bantamweights against a table.
Harry
Who wins against a slab of concrete?
Francis
It's how much? Fifteen hundred pounds.
Harry
Holy. So then how do you even transport that?
Francis
They were like, dude, we, we want to give this to you, but you have to check with your structural engineer, built your floor, what's beneath you? And I was like, a basement. And they said, okay, yeah, you need to see whether or not the floor can hold that much weight.
Harry
I think I would need more now. Sounds like a terrible idea.
Francis
This is where I'm going to be working. And imagine like, I'm sitting there typing, and then one day, all of a sudden, I just sinkhole a crack and I'm plunging with my legs beneath a 1500 pound table down into my storage unit.
Harry
Yeah, your legs would be. They would be turned to mashed potatoes.
Francis
I mean, it's a bad situation. That's like something that happens in, like, Brazil. Yeah.
Roan
You know, you would get turned into a quarry.
Harry
I mean, imagine right now we're doing remote where the did Francisco.
Roan
It wouldn't be that. I feel like you'd be like. You'd be like a tube at the bank.
Harry
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Roan
You get ripped through. That's terrifying. They're gonna need more floor.
Harry
Was it a Chief Keef concert where they fell through the floor? It was. Reese, what was that concert a couple years ago? Ron, you definitely saw it where they were dancing.
Roan
It was Token.
Harry
It was Token.
Roan
Yeah, it was a Token concert.
Harry
They were vibing that hard to Token.
Roan
They were moshing at a Token concert and it got ready to rip through the floor. No, it was Watsky. They were moshing at a Watsky concert and it ripped through the floor.
Harry
What?
Francis
So then the guy goes. He goes, well, do you. Do you think you'd feel comfortable? I was like, dude, I don't know if. I have no idea if that is an amount of weight that would. My floor could support.
Harry
I mean, what if you put it like outside? Or could it even go out there to be like. You have to check with mother Nature, see if that's gonna hold up on the grass.
Roan
You're gonna have to check with Isaac Newton. We don't know if the earth's crust can.
Francis
How strong are the tides around you?
Roan
What. What phase of the moon is it?
Francis
Yeah, but I. He goes, well, would you feel comfortable having like 12 people standing very close together in the middle of your floor? And I was like, I would have until you Asked this question. Yeah, I hadn't thought about that, but yeah, I mean, I would have thought having a group of people, like, standing super close together in my apartment, my. My place would have been fine.
Harry
Yeah.
Francis
You would handle a Watsky concert that I worry about. Yeah.
Roan
Well, why don't you have like a small soiree and just get everybody to jump?
Francis
I don't want them jumping. The table's not going to jump.
Roan
But I'm.
Harry
Yeah, but you gotta give.
Roan
That would see like the force of the. Or 10 people and they jump or something like that.
Francis
I need them to do a reverse human pyramid where one person supports like nine or 10 other people on their own shoulders and stands with just two feet in as concentrated a spot.
Harry
The.
Francis
The other thing I learned what's lucky about my place is that that where I want to put this table is at the corner of the room. And so you gotta figure the. The weakest point of the boards beneath the floor or whatever all those pieces is the center. Right.
Roan
The middle.
Francis
Yeah, like a trampoline at. Exactly. So at the corner it should be okay, but I don't know. I'm taking a risk.
Harry
I would say my biggest concern is that, you know, you get the table, right? You get the table in and it's. And it's. It's a hit. Like it's not going anywhere. The floor is not moving. And then you say, you know what? Let's have a couple people over for dinner. I want them to see the table and then that first plate that you place on just a perfect square out of the floor, straight down. Yeah, that's my concern.
Roan
Roadrunner.
Francis
Blame it on some woman who's body dysmorphic. Hannah, have you been eating a lot? Jesus.
Harry
You're gonna have to have people step on a scale before they come into the house so you can do the weight distribution at dinner.
Francis
Thanks for nothing. We're all now paralyzed thanks to your gluttony.
Roan
Yeah, you're gonna have to organize the inside of your living room. Like a hot air balloon flight. Like, we need you two over here. We need you in the front up here.
Harry
Hey, Steve, I hate to do this. You're gaining weight. We need you at the head of the table. Not a side guy. You're just not a side guy anymore.
Francis
Ron, have you ever been on a hot air balloon ride?
Roan
I'm far too scared. But I want to go to Cappadocia just for the hot air balloon rides. I'm not. I'm not doing a hot air balloon until I get To Cappadocia.
Francis
That's the. That's the Mecca of it for sure.
Roan
Have you. What's it like?
Francis
I've done one. Yeah. I did one in Kenya and it was cool. Well, the coolest part about it is that when they're not gassing the balloon, it's silent. It's just sailing, basically. Right. So there's big periods of time where you're floating through the sky silently, and that's a cool experience.
Harry
I genuinely don't know if there's something that would terrify me more than that. I think. Yeah. I'm thinking about it right now. Like, I. For the lot. Like, if you offered me like a million dollars, I don't think I could get on one of those things.
Francis
Well, we floated over a river that had, I don't know, 60 hippopotamuses and then like hundreds of crocodiles in it.
Harry
Yeah.
Francis
And we weren't that high up. And there was a moment where I thought, hey, buddy, why don't you pull that switch a couple times? Yeah, let's. Let's make sure.
Harry
A couple sandbags.
Francis
Let's get a. Let's get over this part of the.
Roan
Because if the hippopotamus start working together and do that human pyramid. Hippopotamus pyramid, and climb up to get you on each other's shoulders. If they get a trench coat and. And pretend to be one really big hippopotamus, they could bite right into you, which is terrifying.
Francis
Who's that very tall man in a trench coat? Doesn't he know there are hippos down there?
Roan
That has to be one of the coolest places to go on a hot air balloon ride, though. Probably make it way less scary just going super high. There was a movie about, like the first hot air balloon flights. And it looked terrifying because they're going through storms and the baskets getting, like, whipped around. One of them was a woman that was doing it too. A bra. A brave, brave woman.
Harry
Amelia Earhart.
Roan
Yeah, Earhart. But early on in the battle rap days, there was like this league called Grind Time. And the owner of the league, this dude, Mad Ills, was like, we're about to do crazy stuff in battle rap this year. It's going to be like nighttime battles, like pay per view battles. We're even going to do a battle in a hot air balloon. And everybody's like, why the. Would anybody want to see that? But eventually they did do the hot air balloon rap battle. So if you look out there, there's just two dudes rap battling in a Hot air balloon. But I'm pretty sure one of the dudes was just like, scared as. So he's just like holding on to the side the entire time as he tries to spit like a rat. First being like, you're a.
Harry
Yeah, I don't with that at all. I don't with. I mean, I barely even with flying on a plane, I'm not getting in something that's controlled by hot air. God forbid there's a gust of cool air.
Francis
We. The funniest part about it was, and I've said. I think I said this before on a pod, but our guy, the guy who was pulling the lever, he kept calling himself a pilot. And I was like, really? And he's like, yeah, me and the other pilots, you know, I'm like, dude, you're. You're the nurse practitioner pilots. Can we. Can we be honest with ourselves?
Roan
You're not even a resident.
Francis
You have one control and you are completely at the mercy of the wind. You can't even steer this thing. You know, you got one. You go up and you go down. That's all the control you have. You're.
Roan
You're an elevator attendant.
Francis
Elevator operator. Exactly. You're not a pilot.
Harry
It's kind of crazy that they still don't have like. Like, you know how like a sailboat now they have like the backup motor?
Francis
Well, yeah, that's been the case for a while.
Harry
Yeah. But I'm saying in terms of things that are powered strictly by wind, you would think, like, maybe we get. Maybe let's just throw a couple wings. Throw a couple wings on the hot air balloon?
Francis
Yeah. A little backup propeller. Yeah, yeah.
Harry
Something that's going to get us not killed.
Roan
I mean, you're. You're saying that. That you don't with hot air balloons because they rely on hot air. But, like, that's what planes are relying on air, too.
Harry
Yeah. Planes definitely feel a little safer than a hot air balloon.
Roan
Yes. Because you're not on a balcony. Like, it's just. You're basically on a freelance balcony.
Harry
I mean, a plane can't be taken out by a thumbtack. Like, that's why I'm not really that worried about planes.
Francis
When you land, the basket just bounces on the ground and they make you strap in before the landing and then it tips and you're on your side.
Harry
Do people, like, break their legs at landing?
Francis
Not with a good pilot. Not with our pilot. Our pilots. At one point, our pilot had the distance record traveling from the west coast of America across to the east coast purely by accident. Yeah, by a few hundred miles.
Harry
Well, guess we're setting the record today.
Roan
The wildfires really got under it.
Francis
I was like, yeah, he was so. He was so obsessed with the piloting of hot air balloons. I'm like, dude, you're communicating to the other guys with walkie talkies. There's no satellite, no radar, no intercom system. There's no air traffic control tower.
Harry
Do they have any sort of plan B? Like, is there, like, parachutes?
Francis
No, dude, you're no more than, like, 80 to 100ft off the ground at. At most at a given time.
Roan
Oh, I've seen ones that are super high.
Francis
We didn't go. We didn't go super high because the higher you go, the less you can see the animals and the better view.
Harry
Afghanistan has of you.
Francis
Yeah, exactly.
Roan
Better the Chinese can see you. What was the Chinese weather balloon that, like, supposedly just accidentally, like, went over our military bases and into the White House and surveillance had sex with our top politicians?
Francis
Yeah.
Harry
Fucked all of our politicians.
Roan
Just seduced our politicians. It was an accident. Surely you must forgive us.
Harry
They should have had a little walkie talkie on it so it could speak.
Roan
A seductive spy balloon. Just, like, showing his bra. Whoopsies.
Harry
Ron, How's. How's. How's the shore?
Roan
It's beautiful. Hat. Francis. You've been to Avalon, right?
Francis
Yeah, I love Avalon.
Harry
You just got in?
Roan
No, I got in the other day. The whitest place in America. Of course, Avalon makes the Hamptons look like Birmingham, Alabama. It is no joke.
Harry
Are you gonna go down to the Shorehouse this weekend? Just pop by, say what's up.
Roan
I've been invited. I gotta get invited.
Harry
You gotta bring the kids over. Get the kids out to meet Nikki Smokes.
Francis
Nikki Smokes? Nikki Smokes called me.
Harry
What'd he say?
Francis
Well, he wanted to let me know that he thought I was doing good work lately. But I'm sure that was just. I'm sure that was just a Trojan horse to make, you know? Because I like to give him advice. I like to help him. I. I don't know why, but I got a soft spot for Nicky Smokes.
Roan
And I do too. But it sounds like he's the one giving you advice. Like, hey, you're really crushing it lately, bro. You've been taking everything I've been saying.
Harry
A lot of people are noticing in Chicago. A lot of people are starting to catch on.
Roan
Stay by your phone. You might get that call any day now.
Francis
They're saying. They're saying there might be Room. I don't care, you know? But yeah, so I. He. I just said. He was like, what do you think? You know? And I was like, dude, my. My advice would be, you know, go in there and wait for the first sort of fight or pyrotechnic moment to happen, and then jump in and make it as big of a deal as possible.
Harry
I don't hear it like.
Roan
Like giving. Give an example. Like, how could he do that?
Francis
Well, when he walks in on, you know, K dick or whatever, taking a shit on one of the girls pillows, and then they come in and they're furious about it, he should come in, be like, whoa, whoa, whoa, guys. And then take the pile of and smear it on the walls.
Harry
Elevate, double the situation. Double down.
Francis
Yeah, no, I. Actually, what I told him was, I was like, dude, I would. I would ease in would be my advice.
Roan
It's hard for advice on this show because any advice I have is the opposite of whatever I would do.
Francis
Yeah, that's.
Roan
You know what I mean? Like, it's supposed to be like a show of bad decisions. Like, if everybody acts, like, in like, an ethical and straightforward manner, the show's gonna suck. Like, everybody's like, good people to one another and, like, considers everybody else's opinions and. And like, it's. It's making it be like a fun.
Francis
I'm making blended frozen margaritas. Would anyone like one?
Roan
I've got church in the morning. I think I'm gonna head to. Head to bed after.
Harry
Yeah, I pretty much. I pretty much told Tommy to do that. I told him to just go full white night, like, cause no trouble, only. Only support people.
Francis
Do you think Tommy's gonna hook up with girls?
Harry
That's what I was talking to him about, and he said yes.
Francis
That's awesome. I love.
Harry
Like, that's a bad idea, but up to you, man.
Roan
Dude, if I see it, like. Like it's a this kind of obfuscated punchline of, like, Tommy and Glennie hooking up with girls. Like, it's fun to, like, we don't know what it looks like if we see it on camera. It's not going to be fun anymore.
Harry
No, no.
Roan
Tommy smokes making out with a girl. Like, he's not gonna have, like, this cool, funny, like, mysterious factor. It's gonna be like, have you ever seen people make out? Like, it's gross, nasty.
Francis
It's repulsive. Especially unattractive people. Oh, yeah, that's even worse. Not saying that anyone on that cast is unattractive, but my God, I. I once saw. I was in. I meant. I'll never forget this. I was in the Union Square subway station. And it must have been July, so it was, you know, 115 degrees as I was waiting for the subway, and I saw right to my right, it was like a teenage couple probably in high school, and they were both of Latin origin. And I knew that because the young man had a very pubic mustache just starting to poke through. And he and the girl that he was with were making out so aggressively that you could, like, hear it over the din of the trains.
Harry
Yeah.
Francis
And in that heat, that was the most disgusting thing I'd seen.
Harry
Dude, I've had that happen on stage. Have you ever had that while you're on stage and you just start hearing it and then you're looking around and you're like, what the fuck?
Roan
And you're like, tommy Smokes, are you making out with a girl at my show? Dude?
Harry
Dude, that's happened to me two times on stage, and both times trying to address it has been like the biggest. I've never thought. I've said this before, but I've never thought something was going to get a bigger laugh. That got legitimately zero laughs stuff, everyone, because you become a dad.
Roan
Like, what are you gonna do? Be like, don't. Hey, a little. Leave a little room for the Holy spirit.
Harry
Like, well, I mean, you're on stage, you're looking at the crowd. So it's like, I don't want to be doing jokes, watching people make out through my jokes.
Roan
Yeah, because when you start getting hard during your jokes, it just makes it not funny. Like if.
Harry
And then I have a hard time focusing.
Roan
If you just have a rock hard on stage, then, like, everybody in this. In the audience is going to have a bad time because of penis envy.
Harry
Exactly.
Roan
And that's. That was your point.
Harry
Exactly where I was going with that, I presume, Right?
Roan
That was what you were saying. Penis envy.
Francis
That's how I understood it. That's the subtext I gathered.
Harry
Let's quit.
Francis
Let's click.
Harry
Let's quit beating around the bush and talk a little ball. Thoughts?
Francis
Talking ball.
Harry
Francis, you got you interested in talking a little ball?
Francis
I am excited to talk some ball. Let me tell you something. I've almost finished quarterbacks. I'm obsessed.
Harry
It's great.
Francis
I'm obsessed.
Roan
Your favorite characters. Who's your favorite main character of the show? And then who's your favorite side character that's not in the NFL?
Francis
I mean, I hate to say it, but my favorite Character is. Is Joe Burrow. For sure. He. He isn't as cool as I thought he was, but I like.
Roan
Which makes him.
Harry
Makes him cooler.
Francis
Makes him. Yeah, Joe cool. Yeah. He's like shy and.
Harry
Yeah.
Francis
Kind of. I don't know, like, unsure of himself. He's not some arrogant, you know, he wears, like, fur coats and smokes cigars and stuff. But I think that that is far more, as Harry would put it, performative than who he truly is, you know?
Harry
Yeah.
Francis
Even the way Joe Burrow.
Roan
I'm sorry, go ahead.
Francis
No, go ahead.
Roan
I think that if he started having sex with men, that I think that 51 of American males would have sex with men, too. I think that. I think he could turn all of America gay. Just. I think people would follow his lead.
Harry
Very interesting.
Roan
He's that kind of cool.
Francis
Yeah, I don't.
Harry
He's pretty cool. I think Joe Burrow is going to have a big season.
Francis
I hope so, man.
Harry
I think the Bengals offense will have a big season. I don't really know anything about their defense. I just know they sucked last year. But I was reading this morning that Mike Rabel had to get in between a brawl at training camp between Von Miller and that new running back. We got Henderson, and apparently he was in the bottom of. Vrabel was in the bottom of the pile and came up bloody. Isn't that crazy? Came up with blood all over his face, they said. Also, I haven't been able to find any footage.
Roan
He's only getting good at coaching so he can be closer to the action. Yeah. I feel like we all know coaches who are like that. There's always, like, Little League coaches who just wish they were playing so badly.
Harry
Yeah. That's what you want. You want that out of a coach.
Francis
Yeah.
Harry
I'll tell you who doesn't have that Nick Sirianni bomb next.
Roan
He definitely has that.
Harry
You know who's a bum is Johnny Manziel. What the was that all about?
Francis
Yeah, I would.
Harry
I have a prediction. I got a big prediction. On topic of Johnny Manziel. I think he goes right wing grifter within the next two weeks. 100,000. I've never been more certain of something in my entire life.
Roan
He's just at a desk at a set in his. In his own house. Like Nick Fuentes.
Harry
Yes. He already has Grok writing up, like, the most racist tweets you could possibly think of. And it'll end. The first one will end in a question. It'll just be like a video of people in India and He'll tweet it and be like, what do you notice?
Roan
He'll just do. He'll just tweet out, like, five words. He'll just be like, you smell bad. And everybody will be like, yeah, exactly. Sign it to every group that they already hate.
Francis
Exactly. It'll be some, like, white lady lying face down in the street, you know, bloodied or whatever. And he'll be like, any reason why the left hasn't covered this?
Roan
Why aren't we talking? Yeah.
Francis
And it's like, well, that happened in 2017. Hit by a trolley because she was drunk, but color trolley. Yeah, exactly.
Harry
I really think that's where he's going to go. I'm very confident just because, like, I think the Gilly thing, like, him and he. The him and his Gilly. The Gilly and him argument didn't bother me at all. Like, I don't. I wasn't really paying too much attention. But it.
Francis
My.
Harry
In my opinion, him calling out Gilly and then immediately going to set up the Rough and Rowdy, that screams, I'm out of money. Does it not? Does that not? I mean, it screams, I have $0 left.
Roan
That actually makes more sense than. And makes him seem way more in control than just telling somebody online, I'm gonna slap the out of you. That's a crazy thing to say online.
Francis
You know that we. We hired him. We tried to have a podcast with him, with Casey, I think. Right. Really?
Harry
Yes.
Francis
Years ago.
Roan
He's still on payroll. Sass. So you'll be hearing from Gaz. You're actually going to be fighting him in Rough and Rowdy now.
Harry
Just like, I don't know. The immediate call out to Rough and Rowdy made me think, you know, that does make a lot more sense. Not going well for Menzel.
Francis
And.
Harry
Yeah, this is. I mean, I feel like you typically see that when people are grasping at anything, the call out Rough and Row. Who was the last guy to call out Rough and Rowdy? The fucking guy that we had to fire immediately. The guy from Jersey Shore or whatever or something.
Roan
Who's that?
Harry
You know what I'm talking about? Got a big old tattoo on him.
Francis
Who are you?
Harry
That was a swastika.
Roan
Who?
Harry
You don't know who I'm. You don't remember this?
Roan
This was like three years a barstool employee who had.
Harry
It was like. He was like a reality TV show guy that we were like. Everyone was like, oh, this guy's coming into the Tommy something.
Roan
Johnny Bananas.
Francis
Oh, I know who you're talking about. It was the guy, Tommy. Like, cheese balls.
Harry
Yes. Yes.
Roan
Oh, my. My real life is the Jersey Shore or like this. True life.
Francis
Yeah, true life.
Harry
Yeah, That's. He. He immediately came in and was like, set me up with rough and rowdy. And it's not like Johnny Manziel sitting at home being like, I really want to get into professional fighting. It's definitely like, I need something to get. Get the wheels moving again, get me back in shape.
Roan
Maybe I'm playing a little bit of quarterback.
Harry
Yeah.
Roan
The fact that he went at Che, the fact that he was side texting Che pictures of him pulling the sides of his eyes back, I thought was so up.
Francis
What? What? Oh. Oh.
Roan
I thought that was insane and bigoted of him. It's like, oh, it's like old.
Harry
That's old racism.
Roan
It's old racist. That's like turn of the century racism.
Harry
Yeah. That's like giving someone, like, the pinky finger. But, yeah, that's just my. That's my hot take on Johnny Manziel. I think he's going to go right wing.
Francis
Good take. Fast, solid take for sure.
Roan
That is actually a really good take. But you might have. You might have nipped it in the bud. He might have. He's going to be like. And like, I planned this and you just tweeted it out.
Harry
Yeah. It's either that or my whole life. It's one of the two.
Roan
I would. I would go alt right first and then do the coin. I don't think that going coin first is going to get you in good graces, especially if you're rugging.
Harry
True. Yeah. I mean, he's definitely a rug guy.
Roan
Francis, who's your least favorite or who's your favorite side character from the. From the quarterback series?
Francis
Oh, gosh.
Roan
I'll tell you who mine was. While you. While you think of it, her cousin's brother.
Francis
Yeah. The one who looks just like him.
Roan
Kind of who he harmonizes with and who's dressed up to the game. And, like, Kirk's pissed off. He's like, that's way too look at me moment.
Harry
Yeah.
Francis
Yeah.
Roan
You have a film crew following you around and you're playing a stadium and you're like, he's. Yeah, he's way too. Look at me. For me, you play the most important position in sports, and that's been your lifelong dream. Your brother, like, shows up to support you in a cowboy hat. You're like, he's a knucklehead. Attention.
Francis
I'll say that I really liked Kirk Cousins. His wife. Ah, she Seemed so ride or die. And there was this moment when he, you know, gets called and told that Michael Penix is going to replace him as the starter. And he calls Michael Penix to tell him like, the job is yours, good luck. And she's recounting the story to the camera and she says, I thought that moment was when I, I mean she was like, who does that? It makes me emotional. And then she tries to fight back the tears and she does that thing where she catches them.
Roan
She's holding up the makeup.
Francis
She goes, she goes like this ready? I'm gonna do my impression. She goes, that's just the type of man that he is.
Roan
Almost.
Francis
I almost cried. I almost cried. I was like, imagine your wife knowing that, believing in you that much and being like, see everyone, this is the man I'm married to. Yeah, that's a pretty cool fucking thing to have your wife endorse you on that level.
Harry
I think she probably saw that Falcons $80 million contract and was like, why are we giving up right now? There's another team. We can find another team.
Roan
Yeah, you've had. He had like multiple fully guaranteed contract. His first contract with the Vikings when it was fully guaranteed was three years, $100 million and no one was getting fully guaranteed. And he got all of that guaranteed. And then I think he got another fully guaranteed contract and maybe his shit's fully guaranteed with the Falcons right now.
Harry
I want to say his Falcons contracts fully guaranteed. Yeah, I think it was 80 million living.
Roan
And also I bet the quarterbacks who have wives that tell good stories about them probably get bigger contracts. Like it's a nice pr. What is it?
Harry
Shocking. Yeah, he's like, he's like top five. He's got to be top five. Pies paid.
Francis
What, what exactly were the Falcons doing? What exactly happened there? Why did they do that?
Harry
Kirk Cousins started sucking at the end of the season.
Francis
Why they draft Michael Pennix after signing Kirk to like a. What was it, a four year deal or something?
Harry
They must have had worries about him playing. I mean.
Roan
Yeah, why would you sign him if you had those worries?
Harry
They signed a four year, 180 million dollar contract. That contract includes a hundred million dollars guaranteed.
Roan
So he's set. Yeah, she doesn't give a. And I think that she's from Georgia. I feel like I, I remember hearing.
Francis
About they got married.
Roan
That it was a. Yeah, that makes sense.
Francis
They got married there. Yeah, they know it. Yeah.
Harry
And so he pretty much just got.
Roan
And it was like, it was like fast and he. I think I I feel like it just, like they just signed on and just. It was like a split decision, maybe by both sides.
Harry
Yeah, it's probably. If that's somewhere they wanted to, like, move back to, you know, like, they're. I mean, he's getting paid so much goddamn money, so he's. I mean, so he's still. Is he still. He's still on the team.
Roan
Yeah.
Harry
And he's just going to be the backup quarterback that gets paid $45 million.
Roan
A year, I think. I bet he gets traded to, like, the Saints or something like that.
Harry
Yeah, I could see that. Saints quarterback.
Roan
It's in division, so maybe not. But they have Spencer Rattler. They drafted a guy in the second round called Tyler Shuck, and he sucks. He's like a rookie, and I think he's, like 27 years old. He's, like, older than you. Sass Michael panics. He's. He sucks ass. So they're about to go back to Spencer Rattler, who I don't think is. Is good either. So I feel like they need it. They need a guy.
Harry
Yeah. They don't have a guy.
Roan
They don't have a guy. But maybe they're going for Arch Manning next year.
Harry
Yeah, true.
Roan
Wouldn't that make sense?
Harry
Probably, yeah.
Roan
Arch. Because, I mean, his grandfather played there.
Harry
Yeah. In New Orleans.
Francis
You know what else I liked from the show?
Roan
Yes, brother. What?
Francis
Jared Goff wins a game. I think they go to, like, 14 and 2 or something like that. And he's up late at night with his parents and his wife sitting around a table, and they're like, so, what's up for the next couple days? And he's like, well, we have tomorrow off. And they're like. And I think she's like, what? What do you want to do? And he goes, we're sleeping. We're sleeping all day. And. And they're. Everyone's like, okay, that makes sense. Like, nobody. Nobody's like, oh, we never get any time together. Like, are you sure? I've been really wanting to go check out this art installation. Like, yeah, this is our only. It's like, okay, yes, I accept, given what you put yourself through, that on this one day that we have together, you will just sleep all fucking day.
Harry
Yeah.
Francis
And I'll do it with you. Fuck it, I'll just.
Harry
Sounds great.
Francis
Yeah.
Roan
They probably start playing pro football to get out of apple picking. They're like, it. I'm just gonna be an All Pro, dude. I literally have to be an All Pro. I do not want to go on A hay ride like that sounds insane.
Francis
Oh, your best friend's having a destination wedding in Corsica. Unfortunately, that conflicts with what I have to do in order to make the living that I do. Yeah, but it's in the off season.
Harry
Just going to Otas is a 10 year old vet. Day one I'll be recovering from the.
Francis
Surgery that I had to postpone, even though there's an amount of pain I'm dealing with that prevents me from, you know, sleeping at night.
Harry
Oh, speaking of that, you guys watch. Do you guys watch Happy Gilmore too?
Roan
I. I like. Or I like, had it on. I wasn't like watching it. I had it on while I was doing other. I was helping his telescope. But I thought it was good.
Harry
I thought that movie got way too much.
Roan
Yeah, it was funny.
Harry
The ending was insane. But the. Up until like, I mean, I probably watched. I turned it off with like 20 minutes left. And up until, I'd say like the last 30, 40 minutes, I thought it was great.
Francis
Thought it was.
Harry
I thought it was very funny. I was hooting and hollering.
Roan
You know what it felt like to me, an Adam Sandler movie. Like, this was an Adam Sandler movie. Like, I don't know why. Why there's even discourse about it.
Harry
Yeah, I don't either. The cameos thing too. I was expecting that to be like a big thing. It's like there's cameos, but they're really not. It's not like a. The only one that I thought was like kind of out of place was the Eminem one.
Roan
Yeah, but that's like the iconic character. That's like the iconic sleeper character who's not a main character of the whole thing.
Harry
Yeah.
Roan
Being associated with that guy. They're probably like Eminem. You could have any role you want. And that's probably what he chose.
Harry
Probably. Yeah. I thought Bad Bunny was very funny.
Roan
Yeah, he was great. I thought that. But I just. I didn't like the Ben Stiller part though.
Harry
Yeah, I feel like they could have used Stiller in a better way. By the way, genius that he is, I love Stiller. I know you hate him, Ron.
Roan
I know you guys have had your.
Harry
Little back and forth.
Roan
I love him in that. That's the. Yeah, that's such a funny role. I actually thought he was great.
Harry
Yeah, you and you and still are like Menzel and Gilly.
Roan
Dude. I was watching a. I was watching a video of. It was like a African travel video. And there was. They were like Flo. They were. They went to like some slum. I may be in Nigeria. I think it's a floating slum in Lagos, Nigeria. And it's literally just people live on floating trash in these cobbled together their houses. And like, it was like 40 minutes into the video and this like, Nigerian dude points to the camera and he. He was like, Ben Stiller came here and promised that he would give $70,000 to build an orphanage. And he never gave the money.
Francis
No.
Roan
I got so excited that I, like, filmed. I filmed my, like, tv. Like, like, I. I knew it, dude. I knew it the whole time. So I'm ready to unleash that whenever, like, if war is ever back on.
Harry
Yeah, it sounds like Scott's Tots office episode. I watched that the other day.
Roan
I have to find this video and send it to you guys. It made me. It was such a hidden gem. Like, God planned it out for me to see.
Harry
Scott's Tots has to be one of the funniest episodes of any television show ever. Incredible. When they're dancing, when they do the other break dancing. It's so funny.
Francis
Yeah.
Roan
I honestly can't even watch that episode because it, like, makes me uncomfortable.
Harry
Oh, yeah? Yeah. It takes me, like, I gotta pause it every now and then. Take a deep breath.
Francis
Doesn't he end up paying for the books for one student? It's like, what about the other students books? How come nobody did? Who didn't? They find out that he bought her the books. Like, you know, I don't know.
Harry
I think it was. He bought. He bought the dude, this dude the books. And he's like, all right. He's like, you know what I'll do? I'll pay for your books. And he's like, are you sure? He's like, they're a lot. And he's like, all right. He's like, how much? He's like, about like a grand. And he's like. And then he starts writing the check. And he's like, no, that's every quarter. He's like, that's every quarter. And then he writes the checks. And he's like, you have to call me before you deposit these.
Francis
Oh, man.
Roan
Just a good.
Harry
Just a good show. I was watching a little cable in the hotel.
Roan
That's really nice.
Harry
Love getting a little cable going.
Francis
It's fun.
Roan
The house down here that I have, that I'm staying at has. It has a live PD channel. And so I. I put on live PD for maybe 14 hours the other day. It's so great.
Harry
You see any good ones?
Roan
I mean, everyone is a good One, they have ones where there's no camera and it's just. They only put like the. The hero cops on live pd, so it's just like justice prevailing every time. Cops making amazing decisions. I saw a guy pull out a knife and then the cop shot. Just shot the guy once. Like he literally shot the injure. I've never seen that. I thought that was like a movie thing. Like he just hit the guy once and then another cop came up with like his taser drawn like a weapon and he tasered the guy. Neither of them like shot Faily. Even though this, this guy who wants to die is charging them with a massive knife. I feel like a lot of cops would just unload. That's carte blanche to unload the clip. Yeah, yeah, they acted perfectly.
Harry
I'd love to get a mix though. Like they should really. It should be unbiased. I want to see 14 hours straight of raw cop footage. No picking and choosing. You know, like, I'm cool getting some heroic acts in there, but I also want to see like, oh, man, I've been loving watching those videos of the cops trying to like, when they pull over, dude, that's in like the FBI.
Roan
Those are fake. Those are always fake. No, those are always fake.
Francis
Insane. Just insane. It's on a. The badge is on a neck chain that's made of like the stuff you buy. Get it a. You know, David Busters. Yeah, yeah.
Harry
It's part of a Halloween costume.
Francis
Yeah.
Roan
There's so many of those videos and they're always fake. They're always trying to dump them down my throat. Those are all. They do a good job of making them fake start. Keep an eye out for it. You're a smart guy.
Harry
Faking a cop video can't be that easy though. It's like you need body cam. You need two people.
Roan
You need two people. And what do you think?
Harry
GoPro?
Roan
You could use your. Put your phone on your chest and put a filter on it. They probably could easily. It's like you need two people for those interactions and you, like, you just have to act decently well. And that's 500 million views.
Harry
I just saw that. I just saw that one the other day of the dude, the football player who gets pulled over and he does the field sobriety tests and he passed. And they're like, you're under arrest.
Roan
Oh, that's a classic one. The light skinned dude in Arizona.
Harry
Is he light skinned? I think he's just a white dude.
Roan
Oh, maybe I'm thinking of another video.
Harry
He's got a little swagger to him, don't get me wrong, but I think.
Roan
He'S white or maybe he's. Is he, like, Native American or something like that? Or Filipino or something? I don't know.
Harry
Then there was another one that I saw of a dude on a boat, and he was with him.
Roan
Oh, who gets arrested for nothing?
Harry
He gets arrested for nothing. Yeah.
Francis
What are my options right now?
Harry
Yeah, you're under arrest. And he's like, but I didn't do anything.
Francis
He's wearing the life preserver.
Roan
They're like, we think you're intoxicated. It's like, I'm with my family. There's no.
Harry
They're like. The wife's like, well, when you're wrong, what happens? And the cops like, we're not wrong. We're never wrong.
Roan
I watched. What was it called? Some Rebel Ridge. I watched it twice.
Harry
Oh, banger. What did you think about the bike.
Roan
Scene at the beginning?
Harry
The scene where he's biking up next to the. Next to the bus?
Roan
Oh, yeah. That's amazing.
Harry
What exactly.
Francis
Exactly?
Roan
Are you for real?
Harry
Yeah, yeah. That scene's a banger.
Roan
Out of either eye.
Harry
Like, no.
Roan
Sean Moreno during the national anthem. I was like, yeah, I got. I stood up off my couch.
Francis
That is so bad rules.
Roan
Corrections officer just, like, not doing anything if someone pulls up next to that. But, like, they're in the most corrupt town in America. They're easily just knocking him off the road. He's just right next to them. Oh, my God.
Francis
Yeah. And since when can a bus of prisoners just, like, stand up and open the window and, you know, reach out to the guy on a bicycle outside?
Harry
Yeah. Being on that bus ride to jail must be wild.
Roan
Survivor, I feel like it's like Survivor where you start making alliances right away. You're like, oh, I think you hit him.
Harry
Yeah. And it's just based on who you sat next to. These are my brother. You guys are my brothers.
Roan
Now, what happened in Shawshank, I forget what. When they're driving to, when they show.
Harry
Up on the bus and all the prisoners are lined up watching as they get off here, yelling at him.
Francis
Yeah, it's brutal.
Harry
It's a brutal world.
Roan
How tough would. How tough would you guys act in jail?
Francis
I'd be. I'd be strategic.
Harry
Yeah, I think I would try to be strategic, too. I would try to keep to myself, but I don't want to keep to myself too much that I become, like, a target.
Roan
I feel like I'd be looking for idols the whole Time.
Harry
One day of immunity. No one can you in the ass.
Roan
Today.
Harry
I have a seashell attached to a rope.
Roan
Pulled out the rope.
Francis
That is a unfuckable ass.
Roan
I used to watch that show 40 days. What was it called? 40 days in or something like that, where people would go in, like, school teachers would go in and pretend to be prisoners. It was an amazing show. And, like, they would just interview the prisoners. It's so good. And they're like, yeah, I think he's. I don't think he's an actual prisoner because, like, suddenly a camera crew shows up at your fucking jail and starts following someone around. That would be the biggest red flag.
Francis
I watched some clips from some of those shows, and, you know, I always wondered about how real they are because they always end up having fights. Right. But the fights always happen out of view of the camera. Do you know what I mean? Like, they go into the cell and they only have the camera view. That's like part of the gen pop middle area.
Harry
I mean, what are you.
Roan
Strategic.
Harry
Yeah.
Roan
That means who are doing the fight?
Francis
Or you get crisis actors, but they don't, like, spill out into the, you know, the doors open. Theoretically, it's like, I think they're probably.
Harry
Trying to avoid getting in trouble with the guards. Right.
Francis
Could be. Could be that.
Harry
I also would assume, like, even if you're like. If you're working, if you're like a camera guy for that, just you're. It doesn't mean you're necessarily like, like, safe.
Francis
Oh, you probably have a guard with them or something.
Harry
Yeah, but I mean, these guys, if you're dealing with people that are in prison for murder, I can't imagine they're like, that guy's got a camera. He's off limits.
Roan
No, I'm on base. I touch base. You can't tag me right now.
Harry
Yeah, yeah. I mean, if anything, that's probably the white whale.
Roan
Slashing a producer.
Harry
Yeah.
Roan
Slashing a boom mic operator with his own boom Nike. That's the dream. That is the dream. Oh, all right. All right, brother.
Francis
Oh, we can wrap up, guys.
Harry
Yeah, this was good. This is a good time. Are we in studio next week or are we remote again? I believe remote. We're gonna be doing a couple remote. We're gonna be doing a little bit more remote just for August.
Roan
I just know if you guys with it.
Harry
Yeah. Let us know if there's any improvements we could make as well.
Roan
Yeah, we'll do three episodes as a test. Where are you going to be, Francis? Where's that invitational, I don't know if.
Francis
I'm allowed to say, because I don't think they want people, like, come, can Dave.
Roan
Come can Dave. Come on. Son of a boy. Dad.
Francis
I'll see.
Roan
Well, he's at the end. Like, just. If you're just in the house, like, like, suss out his patterns and see when he's, like, in the. You know, if he spends 15 minutes in the living room in the mornings. Oops. We're recording.
Francis
Yeah.
Harry
Yeah.
Francis
Dave took a shit this morning. I'll be honest with you. It ruined the house.
Harry
So you're probably saying it's so mansion if you're in the Dave house.
Francis
I don't know.
Harry
I've only heard rumors of the Dave house.
Francis
I'm excited about it. I'll tell you that much.
Harry
Who else is in the house?
Francis
Let's see if it tells the world. Playing. I think it probably does.
Harry
It's Francis, Dave, and Nadeshot.
Roan
I'm not saying what's up to him. You guys are sharing cups. You guys are drinking out of the same coffee mug, everybody. Every morning.
Harry
You guys see that?
Francis
Posted us. It's at Big Cedar Lodge. Yeah, that's where it is.
Roan
That's sick.
Francis
I'm gonna be hanging out with J.R. smith. I already. I texted Santino about it. Sass.
Harry
Hell, yeah. You guys gonna link?
Francis
We'll hang out.
Harry
Such a good hang.
Francis
I'm gonna hang out. Sketches going.
Harry
Are people saying the bubble popped?
Roan
I mean, that's a canary in the coal mine right there. If Santino's pivoting to golf content. Yeah, yeah.
Harry
Watch for the time. I'm starting my own damn organization.
Francis
Yeah.
Roan
Honestly, times are tough, but that is crazy to do. As soon as you got a little bit of love from Optic, you're like, actually, no, we're starting a competitive brand.
Harry
No, we said that before. They posted Optic.
Roan
Bask in the glow for one second. You know what I mean? Lincoln Build. Instead of trying to divide and destroy.
Harry
It's pretty crazy. We've had so many people, like, just from that one thing that we talked about, like, we've had so many people reach out, being like. Like, willing to help and willing to give intel and all that. It's been awesome. I was, like, pretty worried that we was going to be, like. The response would be like, stay in your lane.
Roan
But Ninja said he's not using his YouTube channel anymore. He was like, you guys can have it. He hasn't used his YouTube channel for how long? He's like, dude, I dropped out of top 10 it doesn't even matter to me anymore. And he said we could just squat on his channel.
Harry
Yeah, that's. I mean, that would be huge. What's the name, what's the name of the group subscribers? I can't, I, I can't say.
Roan
It's not phased with the ph. Oh, no.
Harry
I guess this will come out tomorrow so I can say the current team name. Well, it originally was Telluride Bush. That's been the name. But we're, we're teasing. We're teasing Telluride Warlords.
Roan
That's way better than Bush the Warlords.
Harry
It rolls off the tongue.
Francis
That's pretty.
Roan
Unless your mascot was going to be a pubic mound, I don't think you can have Bush be your name.
Harry
Yeah, Bush was. It would be tough for the logo. The Warlords, though. I mean, Jerry's already sending over some logos and my God, are they nice. Our colors are black. Are black and gray. Because we're all about, we're all about shielding our bodies.
Roan
Like the Oakland Raiders. If you guys had some like Oakland Raider style, like tall ass snapback hats or something. Oh, yeah, like an NWA video. Like all your branding needs to be nwa. You need to start walking around with a massive bully or like a pit bull, like on a. Just pulling a metal chain in front of you. You look so sick.
Harry
If we're, I mean, we're gonna be getting, we got to get some merch going until you ride Warlords.
Roan
Yeah, we eat the cats.
Harry
The Saudis probably heard that and their ears are perking up. Yeah, that's the goal. Get to Saudi.
Francis
All right. Good to see you guys. Be well.
Roan
What do you, what do you got to do these ads tonight?
Francis
I'm going to say dinner by is what I'm going to have for dinner tonight. I'm starving.
Harry
Yeah, I'm pretty hungry.
Francis
I'm going to do barbecue chicken tonight, though. Barbecue chicken. Last night I made salmon with a cauliflower puree beneath it and some nice roasted broccolini. The night before, I did halibut with a really nice, like paprika pepper rub, thinly sliced lemons, olive oil, obviously, and some olives sliced across and just baked it. It came out perfectly.
Roan
How long did you have that rub on? Like how many minutes before did you let the rub sit?
Francis
Not that long. It's. It's fish. So, you know, I don't need to like, I don't know. Wasn't.
Roan
Oh, marinate it.
Harry
Yeah, I just remembered you guys might like this. We went out to eat in Atlanta. We went to a nice restaurant. It was called, like, Southern cuisine or some. Forget what it was called. But I had fried green tomatoes.
Francis
Yeah, good. Pretty good. Pretty good.
Harry
Pretty good.
Francis
This can be good.
Roan
Yeah.
Harry
Paired that with a nice Carolina trout. That's unbelievable.
Roan
Oh, man. We got. All right, we got to go eat. Let's. Let's go.
Francis
Let's.
Roan
Let's all go eat.
Harry
All right, cool.
Francis
See you guys.
Podcast: Son of a Boy Dad
Hosts: Harry (Lil Sasquatch), Roan, Francis
Release Date: August 7, 2025
Theme: Navigating post-college life, creative projects, and male bonding with heavy doses of self-deprecation and Barstool Sports-style comedy.
In this episode, Lil Sasquatch (Harry) checks in after a busy stretch that’s left him reconsidering his routines and priorities. Still adjusting to life after dropping out of college, he leans on Roan and Francis for guidance, banter, and camaraderie. Discussion centers on recent personal updates, behind-the-scenes at Barstool, launching new projects (including an esports team), coping with remote work, and trademark Boy Dad riffing ranging from driving quirks to masculinity, headstones, UFC hypotheticals, and hot air balloon mishaps.
| Timestamp | Segment Description | |------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | 03:54–10:41| Home setups, apartment privacy, and Francis’s stealth house call | | 10:59–12:38| Tech/gaming talk—Harry’s ROG Ally device and PC lifestyle | | 15:26–19:00| Busy schedules, emotional distance, and “dad energy” | | 21:44–22:07| Esports org launch: “We’re starting an organization for Call of Duty.” | | 24:23–25:47| Francis on co-writing Dave’s book and upcoming Barstool event | | 43:09–46:29| UFC woman fight hypotheticals (martial arts vs. masculinity) | | 49:04–54:41| Stonemasonry, 1500lb table, fear of floors collapsing | | 55:31–61:09| Hot air balloons in Kenya, pilots vs. elevator operators | | 69:18–79:05| Quarterbacks doc, Joe Burrow, Kirk Cousins, and the economics of NFL QB life | | 82:10–85:52| Reaction to “Happy Gilmore 2”, Adam Sandler, and Ben Stiller | | 91:04–92:44| Jail survival strategies, “Survivor” style alliances in prison |
The episode is loose, self-effacing, and brimming with absurdist humor. Ribbing and camaraderie abound, blending raw honesty about anxieties and aspirations with parodic takes on masculinity, work, and friendship. The language is casual, profanity-laced, and performatively unserious, embodying Barstool's signature bro-comedy tone.
“Atlanta” is a snapshot of post-adolescent drift and hustle, with Harry wrestling for purpose in a world where streaming, stand-up, and side hustles blur together. Roan and Francis serve as playful mirrors—sometimes parental, sometimes rivals, sometimes just as lost. The pod remains quick-witted and breezily confessional, capturing the spirit of young men working, living, and overthinking together in public.
