A
I'm Dumbass. I've never heard that.
B
Okay, well, this is our second one of the week, so there's not a lot of catching up to do. There's more. Just talking about what's going on in the crazy, silly world we live in, I suppose. I saw the Pacers tweeted you last night. Fun, cute, awesome. That's a good picture of you.
A
Really?
B
I thought it was a good picture of you.
A
Oh. Oh, well, thank you, thank you, thank you. I. I had actually, a lot of fun. The Pacers are kind of not having the best year yet, but they have a lot of injuries. But honestly, Brooklyn Nets aren't either, so I thought that maybe this is the one that the Pacers were going to get, but we didn't get it, which is okay. I still had a really good time courtside. Not that it's about me, but I had a great time.
B
We. The Pacers want. If they lose, they still want you to have a good time.
A
Sure.
B
That's important to them.
A
Yeah. Yeah. No. I hung out with Tyrese's fiance, Jade, and she is such a gem and met a couple of her best friends, and they're just so fun. Like, love them.
B
She go to Iowa State also?
A
She did, yeah. She's a cheerleader.
B
That's right. That's right. That's right.
A
Wait, have you. Have you watched the Starting Five on Netflix?
B
No.
A
Oh, it's good. You should. It kind of.
B
What is that about?
A
It's about basketball. And they just felt like they picked five guys last year, and there's five guys this year that they follow and just go throughout the season. And just like, kind of go into their lives every day. And Tyrese and Jade are one of the starting five.
B
It's like quarterback.
A
Yeah.
B
Like how they did it with all them.
A
Yeah.
B
Oh, I would watch.
A
Yeah.
B
I'm curious your thoughts and I. I should take a second and apologize for not even addressing. We recorded on Monday, and I forgot to mention how awesome the World Series was. Oh, I don't know if you actually. Dude, at the best game seven, maybe ever, there were like 10 separate moments where either team could have won. The Blue Jays were inches away from winning multiple times. The pop fly and. And deep left center were. The two dudes from the Dodgers ran into each other. KK Hernandez. And I forget their center fielder's name.
A
Well, he was. He's the one who subbed in. It's not their starter. They subbed him in.
B
Yeah, yeah. And then two nights before when the ball got stuck, then when the dude base is loaded, they throw him out at home. Is Will Smith's foot comes up like it was so. It was such a good baseball game.
A
One of my. My favorite thing watching that last Game 7, though, is when the. The pitcher threw and like, hit two guys. Damn near. Yeah. So he hit someone and then the next guy, he, like, almost knocked his face off. And they're like, what are you doing? And then that guy, he swung and the ball went back and hit the pitcher. Did you see that?
B
I. Yes, but I'm very. Ball don't lie situation.
A
Yeah. I thought it was so funny. I loved it. Loved it.
B
I actually did catch that in real time as. That was good. It's just incredible. And Yamamoto is their. Not Ohtani, but the Jap, their Japanese pitcher, who's, like, so good. The best I've ever seen.
A
I didn't know that he pitched the night before.
B
Dude. And the two games before the night before, he threw two. Two complete games, which means.
A
That's insane.
B
All nine innings. Like, it's so crazy.
A
Did he get mvp?
B
Yeah. Not Ohtani. Yeah. It should have been him.
A
Dude. Toronto had so many times that they could have won that ball game.
B
Could you imagine being a fucking Toronto fan there?
A
Oh, I just felt so bad. Like, I thought this was going to be their year, and the fans, like, just everyone deserved it. And there's just so many opportunities that they just didn't or couldn't capitalize on. And I felt so bad.
B
That's probably the most excruciating loss of any sports fandom in a. In a minute. Okay. I wanted your take on this.
A
Okay. Ladies, gather around. Your wardrobe's about to level up. The Skims Fits Everybody collection. Total game changer. Like, how is it even this comfy? The fabric literally moves with you.

So supportive, yet chill. No squeeze, no stress. Just pure comfort and lift. And you don't feel it whatsoever. Big fan.

B
I've been feeling this way for, like, a good maybe two years. Okay.
A
Oh, God.
B
Game seven of the World Series drew 50% more viewers than game seven of the NBA Finals. Says 2025 World Series game seven, 25.9 million viewers. And I believe this is nationally 2025 NBA Finals game seven was 16.4 million. I've kind of felt like the NBA is in a weird no man's land right now where, like, their old stars like the Steph Lebron KD's are kind of like, like their exit has begun. And the MLB has just kind of been really fun the last few years. I don't know. And I just think baseball had obviously its window where, like, no one cared and people made fun of it. But I do think people do like baseball, and it's gotten cooler and people appreciate going to a game and, yeah, hot dogs and then the playoffs. And there's a lot of cool guys in baseball. But I'm curious, your take WNBA fully aside on the state of the NBA as a product.
A
There's so many routes that my brain goes with it because maybe it's like, you know, they tried adding in the tournament game, you know, where they can win money.
B
That didn't work?
A
No, has not worked. The all Star, they've been trying different things with that to get more attention and more draw there. That hasn't worked. You know, I don't know. I really don't. And it just seems messy. It seems like you. You have these. These guys because like we say they're on their way out. They're still playing great fucking basketball. Yeah, they're, they're still, still there, but you know, they are just getting older, which is weird. So there's like a new flow of guys, but the old heads are still killing it, you know.
B
And so from what I've heard, also like the newer guys, one, they're all, they're like foreign dudes who don't have any interest in being American celebrities necessarily. Like Luca and Wimby. And those guys have no, like, they don't care, you know. And maybe Cooper Flag will be the guy. But it just feels like the new wave of NBA stars are less interested in being stars stars, which is, I kind of admire that for being honest. It's kind of cool. They don't give a shit.
A
For sure. There's pros and cons there. But I also think too, you see a lot of teams, but a lot of like a lot of the groups of people that could win championships are splitting up. Like everyone's just like, kind of like you don't see like Star Pack teams anymore. You know what I mean? Like, I like, it's just weird. The NBA is weird to me right now.
B
I don't hate it. People hated the KD warriors though. Yeah, I don't know if that was good for the NBA either.
A
I, I, it's hard to say, but I also a part of me wonders if, but you can't really argue this because baseball, they play a ton of games too.
B
But like, oh, cut the games.
A
Yeah, yeah, but like I know, I know you really can't because of how much they're getting paid. But the amount of games like these, these athletes are exhausted. Like are they putting on the best product that they could possibly put on every single night? I mean, I'm sure they try to, but I don't know if their bodies can withstand it. You don't know when guys are going to be sitting out. You don't know. You know what I mean? Like, it just, there's just a lot of games. It seems like they don't put the best product out there. I mean last year, the two finals, like it was cool because Indiana has, hasn't been there in years. So like they really gathered around. Indiana gathered around. But I don't know, I don't know.
B
The fact that the finals was two teams from Indiana and Oklahoma, I was obsessed with. Yeah, not the warriors, not the Lakers, not the Knicks. Like I love that it was such landlocked fucking corn fed states. I thought that was really fun.
A
Well, and I will Say, too. Like, with mlb, you have a team, Dodgers, who would go back to back. So they're making history. You also have Toronto, who hasn't been there in how long? 30 years. 30. Yeah, there's history there. So it's like both kind of big headlines and people wanted to be a part of it. You know what I mean? So that could be something there, too.
B
Yeah, well, see, I mean, I guess the question would be like, okay, if The Lakers and LeBron, or God, even LeBron, Bronny, that combo. Like, do they need a storyline to make the final. Or make the finals. Or make the Finals interesting. I really no idea, but okay, last thing. I'll say. The game. I, I, I don't know. There was a game on in a bar the other night, and I forget who was playing. Am I in, like, the Kings and someone else. Who cares? They had 71 points with, like two minutes left in the first half. And I was just sort of, I, to me, that's gross. And there's no defense. Is that weird to you or is that, does that.
A
I mean, yeah, it just screams that there. It's just offense only. But I do think that's why people were getting behind, like, the Thunder last year, because, like, they're younger kids and they all just play really fucking hard. You know what I mean? Like, it's just so. I mean, everyone always complains about how there's no defense and the, the NBA.
B
Not in the W. Yeah.
A
Is there offense in the W? Who knows? Yeah.
B
Oh, okay. We're going to hop into a little something called Is this something? Did you see Tom Brady cloned his dog?
A
Dude, that's weird.
B
I agree.
A
That's really weird.
B
I agree. And I like Tom Brady. I think he's a funny, normal, handsome guy. But why did you do that?
A
That's like, I think you're right. I don't have a problem with them, but he does some weird shit also.
B
People are always like, when your dog passes away, it's the sentiment is, you know, you'll never replace them. You'll just get a new family member, you know?
A
Yeah.
B
Why are you trying to replace your old one?
A
Dude, how do you even clone a dog?
B
I'm sure they take DNA and put it in a blender and then put a bunch of weird stuff in it and then put it in a MRI machine and then incubate it and then.
A
See, this is why rich people do weird shit, because they have fuck you money and they, they just find ways to do weird shit.
B
If you can clone A puppy? Can you clone a human child? Like, is that. Is that soon?
A
Yeah, that's fucking weird to me. But still like him just weird guy. Weird guy.
B
Okay. I interviewed Tom Brady this summer and he was the. He was fucking awesome dude.
A
I'm sure he's awesome.
B
No, I know. I. Whenever you have a good interaction with someone carries for a long time. But I will also say, I would like to go on the record and say I was expecting Tom Brady's crew to be a nightmare. His team is like two dude, two dudes who are mid-30s and they were so fucking chill. And they were the chillest bros. And I was like, Tom's got like these homeboys just in baggy jeans running all his shit and they were so tight. And I. I want to shout out Tom Brady's team. A bunch of killers. Today's show is brought to you by our presenting sponsor, Hard Rock Bet. If you're new to sports betting, this is the app that actually makes it easy. Not sure what to wager on?

The Chiefs come on a flip pass to Rice near side. Touchdown. Dude, Randre Stevens is my sleeper this week. This is a matchup where I think I can slide in Stevenson in my flex position and he could deliver double digit points this week. Drake takes the snap, hands it off for Madre.

The unexpected happened in so many of these games and and I love it. This week was like the defensive line.
B
Stepping in, getting a stop on 4th and goal. Get the the old mo back on your side. It was a lot of good defensive stops, including in the game of the day. This week's games we previewed him. He is the best quarterback in the league this year. He reminds me a little bit of Tom Brady in his later years and this is a compliment. He's no longer hanging in quite as much to take those big hits because he's playing the long game. They're not going to get pressure on him. I news flash, it's not going to happen.

A
Yeah, I'm caddying. Also I'm a dumb ass. If anyone's seen my story. I was like 4 f o u.
B
R and yeah 4 like heads up.
A
But it's.
B
I fucking don't golf. And I knew that.
A
Well, I didn't know. I knew I should have probably looked it up before I put it on my social media. Did you.
B
Did you delete and repl post or did you leave up?
A
Nope, left up posted with my posted just a kind of ugly photo of me. Like 4 question mark yeah, I don't know. Like I just like I messed up. I have no idea. I don't know about golf. I'm really good at drinking and driving the golf cart. Actually. Not a bad. I have a pretty Good short game, too.
B
Yeah. Mini golf is your thing.
A
Yeah. Yeah. I would kill people at mini golf, but, yeah, I have no idea what I'm going to be doing. I don't really know how I even got invited to an event like this, but I'm really excited for it. It's in Florida. Caitlin will be golfing. Me and Lexi will. I have no idea what we're going to be doing, but I know me and Lex will be having a great time. Yeah. Hey, actually, speaking of great times, this is.
B
This is really funny. This is really funny.
A
Stupid. Stupid. Yeah. See my. My next one, though. I fixed it.
B
Who are these hot, hot girls? Oh, is that.
A
Oops.
B
That's probably Tyrese's fiance.
A
One of them is.
B
Who? Which one?
A
The one on the very left. The.
B
Oh, the middle one.
A
Yeah. Abby. I've had a lot of people ask about Abby.
B
What is her story?
A
I'll hook you up. Come to Andy.
B
You bet your ass I'm coming to Indy. We're going to St. Elmo's.
A
Meet Abby. Yep.
B
And meet Abby.
A
I bet a lot of people do. Like, who's the girl in the middle? I was like, okay, well, I'm asking.
B
You on a podcast, which carries more weight.
A
There you go.
B
All right, sweet.
A
But what I was gonna tell you is. Fun time. Dude, Six Flags is closing.
B
I. I only know. I only know this because I guess Travis Kelsey is trying to help restore Six Flags, and the Internet is like, this is probably one of the more serious issues in Travis Kelsey's life is him trying to restore Six Flags, which is.
A
Wait, he put money into Six Flags and now they're closing? I.
B
He. I don't know if it's just a PSA or something, but anytime people make fun of Travis Kelce for being a little, like, dumb, it's mean. But it is so funny because have you seen his old tweets that are always. Oh, yeah, brought up.
A
Yes. Just so fun.
B
So funny. It's so funny always. So I guess this is something he's trying to work on. He's trying to help bring back six. Actually, let's have Kev. Kev. Nija, can you Google Travis Kelsey Six Flags and pull that up? Yeah.
A
See? Travis Kelce.
B
Six Flags. Investing in Six Flags is a genius moves as msn. Let's see more. He's teaming up with activist investor from Janna Partners to buy a 9% stake in Six Flags for 200 million. Oh, I feel like we got to crunch those numbers some more. I don't. To try to like keep it. Yeah, right.
A
That doesn't make any sense.
B
Yup. He wants to buy a 9% stake for 200 million, probably to keep this thing afloat. Six Flags share price is down 50% this year. I'm not an investor. It sounds like a lot.
A
He's gonna have to buy more than 9% if they're all closing. Like, right? Or am I being dumb?
B
No, I. It doesn't make sense to me either.
A
I don't get it. But he knows something we don't.
B
No, it sounds like there's. They're going to need some more financial infusion. They did a merger, I would say.
A
Okay, tell me if this sounds familiar, but every holiday season there's that one person who it's impossible to shop for.
B
Honestly, I feel like that's me and my family. I feel like I give great gifts, but no one knows what to get me.
A
Well, for me, it's my sister. But this year I actually nailed it. I got her the bubble cuddle blanket and she texts me the next morning like I'm wrapping myself up. And it's the easiest gift you can possibly get.
B
That's the best kind of present. It's something that people actually use.
A
You know, I feel that. And I feel like it can also get crazy. You have travel for us. We have games, families all over the country. And so she just takes it with her, gives it to her kids. The kids love it. So it's kid friendly, I would say. But it's cozy.
B
The best thing is I actually have one of these. I'm staring at it right now. Um, and here's the kicker. They make it totally risk free. You get a hundred night sleep trial and a 10 year warranty. But that's like I, I bet no one in the history of the world has ever used it because it is, it's, it's such a good weight and so soft. I love it.
A
And right now, Black Friday came early. So you guys can thank us later. You can use our code show me on Top of Cozy Earth site. Wide sale. That's up to 40% off and that is totally worth it.
B

A
So wrap up the ones you love in luxury with Cozy Earth. I've had some good fun times at Six Flags Though, I'm not gonna lie.
B
Well, I would like to speak up here and say no, guys, no. I. As. As Missourians and Kansas City regulars, I went to fucking Worlds of Fun as a kid more than I went to Six Flags. Not you.
A
I did. I did both. I did both.
B
I weirdly saw a video on Worlds of Fun and, like, someone's seatbelt on a huge roller coaster came undone literally a week.
A
Oh, the Mamba. Remember the Mamba at Worlds of Fun?
B
Oh, do you remember Rockbridge student section roller coaster? Remember that one, Matt?
A
Yep, yep, yep. Yeah.
B
Shout out Matt. Dude, what a trend he started.
A
Hell yeah. Oh, he started it.
B
Well, I don't. I doubt he started, like, the roller coaster itself, but at Rockbridge he did. Guys, real quick, picture this, okay? Crazy student section, Sophie's probably got. It's an off night. We got it. We got to fire Sophie back up. She's probably got six points. Four boards, four sis. Okay, we're down four. Matt Kelly from the student section between the third and fourth quarter walks out in front. Everyone starts stretching. You got to stand up. Everyone gets ready.
A
Hey, let's do it. Wait, hold on.
B
And then he goes back.
A
Okay, so then you gotta put it on.
B
So you got. You gotta. Everyone straps in. And then you go. Oh, you're waiting, you're waiting, you're waiting, you're waiting, you're waiting. And you gotta meet. You gotta mirror which way he goes. And you go backwards and you go forward and then. Yeah, and then everyone's like, hitting each other and then he gets turned up. And then, like, then we come out from a. From a timeout and Sophie just cracks a three from the corner and we. Yeah, right.
A
Oh, my God, that was so fun.
B
Shout out roller coasters.
A
Wasn't it like the first time out in the third quarter or something? Right? Or like going into the fourth.
B
Between third and fourth.
A
Yes. So fun. Great experience. Hey, guys, it's time for the latest segment, the hot girl of the week. Of course, we doordashed our Arby's this week. We ordered the Gobbler and the apple pie shake, which was banging. It was awesome. West ate his actually, before. So I think what we're going to do for this week, because the unrivaled rosters all just came out, so it's going to kind of be a little bit fun of who's actually playing in it. And so, Wesley, you're going to pick your team, and I'm going to pick my team, who I think's going to win.
B
Oh, I'M already going. I'm already fucking locking in the breeze. No offense. Paige. Paige and Cameron. Cameron Brink. I feel like that's a pretty easy one. I do see their highlights on my tl, I'm sure. Every single day.
A
Yeah.
B
Who else?
A
I mean, I'm just. Just now seeing who's even playing in it. I kind of think that the Hive might be the sneaky winners.
B
Hive because of. Because of K. Mitch.
A
Dude, you have Kelsey Mitchell, Sonya. She could have been rookie of the year last year. Like, she. It was like her page. And she's a beast.
B
Oh, right, right, right, right, right.
A
Really, really good. Ezzy. She's like six, five, can shoot really long, athletic, great. Natisha Heideman, she's part of the stud buds. She's a fucking beast too. Lefty, very fast, good ball handler, can shoot the shit out of the ball.
B
Minnesota.
A
Yep, yep.
B
Yeah. Dialed.
A
Sanaya. She just like, brings the hustle. She can shoot the ball. She does a little bit of everything. Good.
B
Lexi's on here.
A
Rose. Yeah, Rose. So they won it last year. They're the defending champs, I think.
B
Can someone explain to me real quick? Like, I'm two years old. Is this, like. Is it a tournament? I know it's a league, but, like, obviously these women are not playing 40 games during the offseason.
A
So what. What it. What it is, it's like 3v3. And so I'm pretty sure. Or you. Yeah, 3v3. But they also play 1v1. But there's a lot of. This is good. This is kind of some tea. So both of these girls, great fucking players, right? Like, yeah, phenomenal. Can't say enough good things about them on the court, but they're also part of our. A part of our exec board. And so that could be a little conflict of interest because. W. And unrivaled.
B
Oh, I guess because this is 3v3. And how. Over the course of how long? I'm curious. Oh, fuck me. Nine weeks. Oh, okay. Then I was gonna say if it's. It feels like just a little one off maybe, and then the WNBA can get behind it, support it for a little bit. Nine weeks is a long time.
A
That's. That's why there's some conflict of interest a little bit.
B
Huh?
A
Mm. So that's interesting. But I will say I think it's cool that they're paying these players because now they're allowed to stay stateside and.
B
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
They. I think that they're the first year. I think they're. It Went actually pretty smoothly, and a lot of people really did enjoy it. And so now a lot of new people are back. A lot of the same old people are back. And so it's going to be. I think people liked it for the most part.
B
Damn. Okay.
A
Yeah.
B
My hot girl of the week, if anyone cares, is my friend Alyssa, who ran the New York City Marathon, and she posted a video of her hugging her mom at the end of the finish line. And I cried a little. Oh.
A
Oh, my God. So since you've been sending those, like, couple stories, are you getting them now? Oh, my God. My for you pages. But not even just, like, the New York Marathon. It's like, marathons in general, and, like, I'm over here just, like, crying nonstop. It's so. It's like people in wheelchairs. Someone had, like. There's this veteran who, like. Like, someone. I don't know what happened, but, like, amputated both legs, and he still did it. Like, there's so many amazing stories.
B
Was that the one where his friend was filming with him and he was, like, pouring the water on his head throughout the.
A
I saw that one, too, but that's not. No, that was not. But I did see that one. So just so many good little moments. Yeah.
B
So awesome. Fuck, yeah.
A
So I know we were only supposed to pick, like, one hot girl, but that was our hot Girls of the week. Thank you to Arby's for helping us highlight all the hot girls out there. We know there's more hot girls, so send us a pic of you and your Aries order to our Instagram at showme Something, and we'd love to feature some of you and your stories on the show.
B
Okay. And to close it out, per usual, we're gonna hit tell me something and hear what the listeners have to say.
A
Oh, God.
B
Hi, Sophie. Hi, Wes. This is Anna from Pennsylvania. I enjoy your podcast.
A
I can tell you've been friends for a long time.
B
My question is, do you think the Nil is ruining the purity of college sports? I get it that everybody's invested a lot of time, energy, and want to get the fruits of their labor, but do you really feel that college students need to be paid extra? Again, enjoy your podcast. I'll go real quick because I have strong feelings.
A
Yep, go for it.
B
Do I think players should be paid or deserve to be paid 100%? Yes. They deserve the money that they are, like, to make back. That they're making the school. They're making the school a lot of money, especially football and men's basketball. And now a lot of women's programs can make the school a lot of money. The part of it that it has ruined for me is the transfer portal. And the lack of loyalty to schools is gone. Which sucks because I don't blame a player if another school is offering them. Hey, like, I went to an FCS school, Montana State. The second we have a player who is really, really, really good, a bigger school is going to offer them more money than Montana State can offer them. And we lose great players. Same for basketball. That part fucking sucks. And it also makes it hard. When it's hard for coaches, it's hard for fans. Your. Your team is not. There is no nucleus. There's no growth. People just leave. And I, I do miss when a player would commit to a school and then stay there for four years. And they love that school and then they can always come back and it's really fun. And I think I could do a full. I could do a full episode on Nil Transfer Portal and why it, like, makes me sad. And I think the purity and the loyalty is gone. And that's something that I've always loved. However, like, when I was in college, before meeting sometimes we would. They would put us in these. They would send us into these rooms to sign stuff for 20 minutes before we had film or whatever and then walk out. And then I was like, do we just go sign our names for the school to sell for like, however much money? Like there. There are some times where you like, what the fuck are we doing? Like, so, yes, players deserve the money, but it. I also think it's a kind of ruined things. So there we go.
A
He. Yeah, I agree everything with what you said.
B
All right, guys, next question for you.
A
Here is a dating question.
B
Hey, guys, big fan of the podcast. I'm Sam. Hope recovery is going well. By the way. I don't have great luck with the ladies, so I was hoping you could help me out with this situation I got. So I was interested in this girl at work. We actually started Dming a little bit. The issue is she'll only message me through her dog's Instagram account. So we do have some conversation, but it's like through her dog account, as if we were dogs, might I add. So the texts are kind of borderline flirty, but on very dog heavy topics like chasing squirrels, playing with bones and toys.
A
What type of bones?
B
I'm really not sure where to go with this. Is that in my wheelhouse? Is this like a good sign? Do I ask her out? Do I ask the dog out.
A
No, this is not normal.
B
You know, I guess I can't rule out that it's not actually the dog talking to me, but anyway. So what is my. What's my next move here? Really want to know. P. S? I think I speak for a lot of us, but fingers crossed that the core of the fever stay together, because it's an awesome vibe and great to watch.
A
So let's get this done. No. All of it. No. Wes, don't even try to make sense of it. That's weird as fuck. I would. Stop. You guys are not dogs. I don't. Just don't even go there. If you have to ask that, don't go there.
B
Here's what you need to do. Stop pretending you're dogs on Instagram. Get her in person and not a dog park. And don't bring the dog. Go get a beer with her. And if she starts, like, sniffing you and being weird, then maybe we. Maybe we move on. But I can't help but hear you. In the beginning, you mentioned you're not on a hot streak with the ladies right now, so this might be kind of the one egg in your basket. No, no.
A
This is why I said don't try to make sense of this.
B
Yeah, get her to meet you out so that we can. We can get rid of all the dog stuff, because that part of it, we. We gotta get rid of.
A
No, this is a huge red flag. Just stop. Just. I would not even go there. Dude, you're acting like you're a dog.
B
He said just sometimes, just a little.
A
Next.
B
Maybe he'd be into it. You don't know until you go chase a squirrel.
A
No.
B
I'm rooting for you.
A
You're so annoying.
B
Just get her in person and get out of the dm, because DMS people can. It's like a fantasy. You got to get out of there.
A
Clearly, she thinks she's a dog.
B
Or she just. She embraces the dog.
A
That's weird. Hey, Kev, would you talk to a girl who thought she was a dog?
B
I would say he's barking up the wrong tree. That's a Sophie joke. I feel like that rubbed off of me. I feel such a Sophie joke.
A
I like Sophie.
B
Rubbed off on you, Kev. Oh, dude. See, I got to be so wary. With what?
A
I like this. I like this. Hello, my name is Socorro, and I.
B
Am from New Mexico. I would like to ask west and Sophie if they have ever had a close friend of the opposite sex who wanted to be more than just friends after a Long friendship. And if you don't feel the same way and you don't feel the same way, how would you let that friend off? Easy, if that is even possible. I would like your opinion or your answers. I love your podcast. Thank you very much.
A
That's cute. She seems nice.
B
Yeah, she does seem nice.
A
Celeste, why don't you tell us about your history of girl best friends?
B
I'm trying to think if any of them have. I don't think anyone has, like, one day just been like, hey, I love you kind of thing. Yeah, I've hooked up with friends before, and you just have to hopefully both know it is what it is.
A
But what if, but what if. What if someone catches feels?
B
I don't, I don't think anyone who's done that would be susceptible to catching feels. I, I, at least in New York, people are pretty, have their heads on pretty straight and keep things moving. I can imagine. I could only imagine.
A
I've never heard that before. People in New York have their heads.
B
On straight with dating. Yeah. No one's like, oh, my God, like, you know, people are just like, let's get it going. How would you let someone down?
A
I think you just have to be honest.
B
Yeah, you hook up once and then you got to be honest afterwards.
A
But I think she's saying they haven't even. I don't think that they. That's actually funny. Okay. That's funny. Oh, I don't. I just feel like you have to be honest. But I don't know, I guess she's not feeling it.
B
So Sophie, Sophie's probably had maybe a teammate in her history. Anyone ever told you they have feelings for you?
A
No, because they're always like, yeah, you're straight as fuck.
B
Damn. Okay. How would you let someone down? So if any idea here?
A
I mean, if you're not feeling it, then just say that. Or just like, say you don't want to ruin the friendship you, you have. And like, like, it's different. If, like, if she was to feel kind of the same thing, then, then that would be. She'd be more like, oh, I've been wanting you to say that, but if you're not, then you just have to be like, you know, I just don't want to ruin what we have. I love you to death, but just don't see you in that light. I don't know.
B
Yeah, but do it at dinner and a movie so they know. So they know you see while you're holding hands.
A
Yeah.
B
Yeah.
A
And then, like, this close to each other.
B
I just want to be your friend.
A
Yeah, I just.
B
I just want to be friends with you.
A
Don't send any mixed signals. I.
B
I'm starting to feel something in my pants, and it's friendship.
A
I knew you were gonna say that. I knew you were gonna say that.
B
But we both think that you sound very lovely. And if we were in New Mexico, we would love to have a coffee with you in the morning.
A
We would love to go get dinner with you.
B
Yeah, we just wanna get dinner and get to know you really well.
A
Just friends.
B
Just as friends. Amas, cut and then cut.
A
Yeah, I love unless. I think you did a great job today on the podcast.
B
Thanks, Sophie.
A
And I hope you listeners had a really great time with us on this Thursday. We'll see you next week.
B
Bye, guys.
A
Love you.
B
That was hot.
A
You know that big bargain detergent jug is 80% water, right? It doesn't clean as well.
B
80% water?
A
I thought I was getting a better deal because it's so big. If you want a better clean, Tide pods are only 12% water. The rest is pure, concentrated cleaning ingredients. Oh, let me make it an oven. Attention, shoppers. If you want a real deal, try Tide Pods. Stop paying for watered down detergents. Pay for clean. If it's got to be clean, it's got to be Tide Pods. Water content based on the leading bargain liquid detergent. If one of us wins, would we all win? I'm Ashley Rayfeld, the host of the podcast Good Luck with that.
