Danny
Yep. It's. It's finished and over and it's got to be a relief. It is a huge relief. I don't know if you guys have been noticing, but I've been on edge for the last couple of weeks.
Brandon
Yeah, I have noticed that.
Big Cat
Yeah. I was gonna say years.
Danny
No, no, just years. Just weeks. Just last couple of weeks I've been on edge. I've been a little prickly. I've been a little prickly.
Kyle
Pear.
Danny
A little hard to deal with. So.
Hank
So now you're down to three houses.
Danny
You own two.
Brandon
Two, two houses.
Big Cat
Why are you doing just three then?
Danny
No, it's just two.
Hank
It's those two.
Danny
It's just two. Yeah.
Brandon
Just don't count the other finger.
Danny
Don't count. Yeah. Pick whichever two you want to count.
Brandon
It's two.
Big Cat
Oh, got it right.
Danny
Yeah.
Hank
One of those fingers is a house.
Frankie
Is.
Hank
That's not his.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Danny
Correct. Yeah.
Brandon
Yet. Yeah.
Frankie
FYI, you have all over your sleeve.
Danny
Yeah. You saw that earlier and you already told me about it. So you still didn't wipe. I don't know what it is. I have only worn this once this year. I guess it's from the closet.
Brandon
If I have a. If you're You're. Your closet gave the jacket a stain.
Danny
Yes, I have that.
Big Cat
I'm gonna. I'm back up. Brandon. Absolutely happened.
Danny
I don't know what happened.
Big Cat
100% that doesn't happen.
KB
Really Producing like my theory.
Danny
Strange things happen in closet. Yeah.
Big Cat
And my theory is it's maybe not the closet, but more the washer and dryer. And then it goes from the washer.
Reed
Here we go.
Hank
Here we go again.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Danny
Here's. This is the first time I've worn this jacket this year. So whatever this is. I probably just disregarded it when it happened two years ago. But. Yeah, it's still there. It's a coffee stain. I think it's poo. So I don't drink coffee.
Brandon
Right.
Frankie
So you just got some.
KB
You on you what A little.
Hank
You wipe your ass with.
Danny
I can do both. Yeah.
Ella
Both.
Brandon
Use your wedding ring hand.
Danny
No.
Brandon
Okay.
Danny
I don't know why I said that. I'm just trying to get out of it.
Brandon
It's.
Big Cat
You can't use both.
Hank
You'd have your best ship.
Danny
Hold on. But listen, the shit wouldn't be on the top of your slide.
Big Cat
Yeah. Wood.
Frankie
We don't know how messy you get.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Ella
Yeah. Because the turret. You have a turd that's so big it's sticking out of the toilet. And that's what.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Danny
Oh, wow. I'm Joe. I'm brushing it from the different. From a different side. Okay.
Big Cat
I had a stretch where I kept on getting stains on my sweatshirts and I like kept on telling my wife is like what's going on with the washing washer and dryer. And then I just realized I was just spilling butter on myself.
Brandon
Butter?
Big Cat
Yeah.
Brandon
Butter. Straight butter.
Big Cat
Yeah. I don't know.
KB
What are you doing with cups of butter?
Big Cat
I don't know.
Hank
Cups.
Brandon
Butter, Butter.
Big Cat
Multiple times. Got butter on myself.
Danny
Butter.
Hank
Are you eating lobster every. Every night.
Big Cat
That's bagel with butter.
Brandon
That is how I picture big cat
Hank
lobster at every boiling butter in his
Ella
house at all times.
Big Cat
Yeah. I got to the bottom of it was because I eat a bagel. I toast a bagel and put butter on it. But I put a lot of butter on it. So then it will sometimes like when I go right on you.
Hank
But.
Big Cat
Yeah. It's never good to have butter on you like that.
Ella
That's my kids. When I pick them up, they use my shoulders like napkins and shoes. So it's just boogers and food on my shoulders. But it'll buff out.
Big Cat
I went to. I went to a. Like a play date it was like a play date at the kids school on Sunday. And they were. The kids were playing in the mud and this 4 year old had just a big rock full of mud. He just walked up to me and just wiped it on me.
Ella
Me.
Big Cat
And I was just like, dude, what? And I had no recourse.
Hank
Yeah, you can't do anything.
Big Cat
Couldn't do a thing.
Brandon
Yeah.
Danny
So tie the shoes.
Frankie
Steven would have killed that kid.
Hank
Yeah, that's why you need an air horn.
Big Cat
Yeah, that's true.
Hank
See the kid coming. Just.
Big Cat
Stephen, do you not know what thunder and lightning are?
KB
That would be a shame.
Mincy
Absolutely know what they are.
Big Cat
Okay. Because last night you asked you like you had never been in part of it.
Danny
I did think that question was a little silly. Like you, you, the child, you're aware of what lightning is.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Mincy
Lightning can strike you and electrocute you.
Big Cat
Do you?
Danny
That's. That's correct. But why was your. Wasn't your question, should I walk the dog in lightning?
Mincy
I had to take my dog out to pee before bed. So just take it out during severe lightning. Like do I wait that out? That's a question.
Big Cat
No, it's not.
Mincy
I could see the lightning from my backyard. I was going to post a.
Big Cat
But that still could be far away. You realize that lightning is very bright. Did you also not know that?
Frankie
No, I saw.
Mincy
I saw the. The bolts coming down.
Big Cat
Do you not know the trick to count between the thunder and the lightning?
Mincy
I do know that trick. The number of seconds is like the number of miles it is away between the lightning. You see it and then the thunder. But I was seeing the lightning.
Danny
No, other way around.
Big Cat
But yeah, thunder comes before lightning.
Frankie
Yeah.
Danny
So I think the easy answer here is yes, you. You do? You do. Thunder is not coming.
Big Cat
Doesn't.
Danny
Yeah, lightning comes for thunder. I do think you wait that out.
Hank
I'm thinking of the Imagine Dragon song. That's where. I.
Danny
If there's bad lightning in your area and your dog has to be you, how quick the lightning to go away?
Big Cat
My dog pees into four seconds when it's raining.
Danny
Oh yeah.
Big Cat
I mean, I'll open up the garage. Boom. Done.
Mincy
Not that quick.
Danny
Was it raining?
Mincy
It was not. So I wanted to get out. But it says severe lightning till 3am and it was like 10.
Danny
Okay, now wait a minute. That was. That was a watch system. That wasn't. We're gonna have severe lightning for the next five hours.
Reed
Right.
Mincy
But I was. I went out in the backyard with her and I could see it and
Big Cat
I was like, what do you mean you can see it?
Danny
Was it above you? Was it around? You can see it every day.
Big Cat
I don't know how you're alive.
Mincy
I. I don't see how this is not even.
Frankie
You keep saying you could see it. That's what you would say. If you see like the. The funnel cloud forming when a tornado.
Danny
Right.
Mincy
But always I can see the lightning bolts.
Big Cat
But between this and the attack. Poodles in your neighborhood.
Mincy
It was not a poodle.
Big Cat
It. It feels like you. You moved from New Jersey to Chicago and you'd think that you moved from New Jersey to the Amazon. Like all of these things were happening in your life before.
Mincy
I didn't have a dog.
Big Cat
Okay. So it's the dog.
Hank
Or it could be the metal dog is.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Hank
Turned your life upside down.
Big Cat
I did like it. Someone. Someone. I was like, hey, just. Yeah. Stephen, go outside, hold the metal golf club over your head so the lightning knows not to hit you. And someone replied to like, this is how you can get sued. Imagine Stephen getting hit by lightning and then suing me.
Reed
You.
Big Cat
I also.
Brandon
That would be funny.
Big Cat
Tj. I just sent it to you. Shout out mad fat because his tweet. I bookmarked it because it was so funny. And the visual.
Mincy
I sneaky think dog Twitter might be worse than grill Twitter because all the responses, none of them were helpful.
Big Cat
Everyone in the world knows how to deal with lightning. Imagine the other dog attacking the air horn going off and lightning striking at the same time, sparking the days. And all that is left his un. His untouched turn. The cops show up. There's a golf club and a poop.
Mincy
I did. I told my wife. I was like, hey, come to the door and watch. Just worst case scenario, like if she
Brandon
saw it happening, what are you going to do?
Mincy
Like instead of me being out there and like she would find me like 10 minutes later dead. She could call 91 1.
Danny
I got to ask about your fundamental misunderstanding of what lightning is. You saw it in the distance. Did you not know if it was in the distance or at your door?
Reed
The.
Mincy
The lightning, if I had to guess, was like point one or point two miles away.
Danny
That's incredibly close.
Mincy
Yes, I know.
Danny
Then. Oh, you don't go outside asking people,
Big Cat
hey, but that's a.
Danny
That's a.
Big Cat
That's a general knowledge thing. If you see lightning in your backyard, don't go outside.
Brandon
It was happening till 3 in the morning.
Danny
But that's just. Conditions are there.
Big Cat
It doesn't just stay one place.
Danny
Radar. Weather radar.
Mincy
I'm going off of Apple weather.
Brandon
Okay,
Danny
that's just the one that says what the forecast is going to be for the day.
Mincy
Yeah, but it says like severe thunderstorm warnings in your area until 3am Also,
Big Cat
why don't you just lay your dog out in the backyard? You have a backyard?
Reed
Yeah.
Danny
Fenced in.
Brandon
Yeah.
Mincy
It's not like the fence prevents lightning.
Big Cat
No, but the lightning will hit so many things before it hits your fucking two foot dog. Do you know how lightning works? The trees, the houses, the actual fence.
Mincy
I tried to stay under. Under the one tree.
Big Cat
No, no, no.
Danny
The worst thing you could do.
Big Cat
What are you saying?
Danny
You don't know how that's the worst thing you could do.
Big Cat
You literally do not know how lightning works.
Mincy
Under came first.
Big Cat
I dogged because of the song dude,
Brandon
under a che.
Big Cat
And also you could just say it comes first because it's. It's a chicken and egg.
KB
It just keeps rolling right under a tree.
Big Cat
Depending on what you want under a tree is crazy.
Frankie
Are you normally this conscious of like lightning?
Big Cat
Like that's what I'm saying.
Hank
Been outside in lighting before. Have you been like this dog?
Big Cat
He never went outside before his dog.
Hank
Have you ever been at a football game and lightning's rolling in and, and
Mincy
they tell people to get inside.
Hank
Sure.
Big Cat
They don't say go stand under a tree.
KB
Wait, that's what you did? You went under a tree?
Mincy
That's what I tried to do when I first went out and then I was like, this is, this is too dangerous.
KB
But do you know that's what's gonna know about the. The rule about trees and lightning.
Mincy
Sure.
Cody
Don't.
KB
That was like some stop, drop and roll.
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah.
Ella
Trees are lightning. That's. It'll hit the tree first before.
Mincy
Yeah. I thought it hits the highest point in like an open field. But if, but if I go. Yeah, if it strikes the tree, that's cool.
Big Cat
But no, if you're standing under the tree and the tree gets struck one, the tree could like fall on you or splinter explodes.
Danny
So many things happen.
Hank
Wow.
Danny
Agreed. It would be worse if the lightning hits you right on the head. That would be worse.
Mincy
That's what I'm saying. And my worry is like the dog collar and leash stuff. Like there's a metal or iron or something in there.
Hank
Should you give the dog back? Should be.
Danny
Should the dog give dog.
Mincy
Our dog's doing great. And I'm asking the right.
Big Cat
You're not doing great. I actually, you know what, I don't want to deter you because I do appreciate you just using Twitter.
Reed
Yeah.
Mincy
Using a search engine.
Big Cat
Yeah. And that's great because it does give us a lot of fodder. But it's just.
KB
He does.
Big Cat
I'm just like, this guy's a child.
Brandon
Yeah. Like, no.
Frankie
Do you worry about going out like with your kids when there's lightning?
Mincy
Why would I do that, Danny?
Big Cat
Because you're doing it for the dog.
Hank
Are you this, like, why would he. Why would he take a precautionary measurement? What a terrible question.
Frankie
What's the difference, Shay, whether it's your dog or kid? Still have the fear of getting struck by lightning?
Mincy
My dog is at least house trained where she's not going inside. So she's got to go outside to pee.
Danny
Yeah, but in either scenario you're going outside.
Frankie
I'm not saying to go to the bathroom.
Big Cat
Say you're like, you're in a parking lot. Like you're in, in a store and it's a lightning storm. Happens you got to run to your car.
KB
Yeah.
Danny
That.
Big Cat
Your kids.
Mincy
That certainly I think is fine. But I'm not like spending time out there. Whereas it might take my dog.
Big Cat
Like see that's what minutes. That's the problem is you need to get your dog better equipped to pee like on command.
Mincy
She's like a year old. So it's.
Danny
The lightning also scares the out of the dogs.
Mincy
I know. Yeah. She wasn't going.
Danny
So she could have just waited till the lightning passed 3am no, it.
Hank
But it wouldn't have been three.
Danny
That just means the storms are in the general area till 3am it doesn't mean that storm that was local to your house is going to be there to 3am why do you not know this?
Big Cat
Also, when was the last time I get weather degrees? This is where he's.
KB
You ask these like lifestyle hypotheticals and expect them to have absolute answers like their equations. The real answer is yeah, you. You probably have to take a slight risk and bring your dog outside for a minute or two.
Mincy
That's what, that's what I did. And we went outside in the back. Didn't work. Went outside in the front, which I thought was a little bit more dangerous because we were nothing shielding us really. And then she did in like three minutes about. And we scampered back in.
Danny
But lastly, if. If the weather app says it's gonna. It could possibly be raining until 3am do you think it's gonna rain every minute until 3am and a lightning storm over your house?
Mincy
If there's no like pause in the blue lines, then yes.
Big Cat
But the lightning moves blue Lines.
Danny
What are the blue lines?
Hank
What are you talking.
Mincy
You guys not use the Apple weather map or the Apple weather.
Danny
You need. You need to get. You need to get a weather radar app to where you can see what's over your house.
Hank
My God.
Big Cat
I gotta be honest.
Mincy
I'm not interested in that.
Hank
Thank you for your.
Brandon
That's how he wins.
Hank
There it is.
Danny
But, Stephen, that is.
Mincy
My wife uses a different weather thing, and it's just too much for me. I just want the simple.
Danny
That is the most simple.
Hank
Yeah.
Brandon
That shows you eating radar.
Danny
Yes. That shows you where the weather is. That shows you where it is at that moment.
Hank
You're reading blue lines.
Danny
Yeah. You're reading forecasts.
Brandon
What are the blue lines?
Hank
Our blue lines.
Mincy
Better than a radar because it'll say. It'll give me the minutes when it's gonna stop.
Hank
Guess what a radar does, Stephen?
Danny
A radar is a picture of the. Of the storm. That's where it's raining right now. The green.
Frankie
Jesus Christ.
Danny
If you're in Rockford, it ain't raining.
Hank
All right, somebody.
Frankie
Some of the nerdiest things ever.
Danny
Did you say you're not.
Hank
The Rapaport videos.
Mincy
I've seen it, but I didn't know. I did not know how to read it. I didn't know how to read.
Ella
It even tells you the exact time on a lot of them, so you can see the exact time the cloud will be over your house.
Hank
All right, he got us again.
Big Cat
I feel like weather just didn't exist for Steven before.
Reed
Yeah.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Danny
I don't know how that's. I feel like weather is one of the first things you learn as a man.
Big Cat
Yeah. And it's also something you obsessively check. Like, I look at it every morning to be like, all right, what am I dealing with today? Gotta get dressed for the day. Is it gonna rain? Is it cold? Is it warm?
Mincy
Before smartphones, I was a no check weather guy. Just look outside.
Big Cat
You just raw dog it.
Brandon
Yeah.
Danny
That's crazy.
Reed
All right.
Mincy
Sometimes you get rained on, sometimes you're cold.
Danny
Whatever. Before smartphones, I'm saying, like, so in 2005, you just. Whatever's out there is out there.
Mincy
Check outside. Sometimes you go out on the front stoop and see how cold it is, and that's it.
Danny
What about a day where it would start out 70 and sunny? It rains, and the rest of the day is 38 degrees.
Mincy
Curtains, you're all wet.
Danny
Is he living a better way?
Big Cat
No, he just kind of rolled.
Brandon
The answer is yes to every smartphone.
Mincy
So you Guys, no, you have to dial up Internet.
Big Cat
No, you'd watch the weather.
Danny
Watch the weather forecast.
Hank
Newspaper will tell you what's coming.
Big Cat
Newspaper, weather channel, radio.
Hank
Literally any other kind of media will say weather reports.
Danny
No. Yeah, I think part of getting older is just becoming more and more familiar with the weather.
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah, it's a. It's an integral part of your everyday conversation.
Danny
How did you have small talk with people?
Brandon
Yeah, you talk about.
Danny
Talk about the weather.
Mincy
Yeah, sometimes I'd be dressed inappropriately.
Brandon
It's like a thong.
Mincy
Yeah, sorry I didn't watch the news this morning.
Big Cat
The sun was out.
Mincy
Yeah, I mean, most of it. Most of the time it's fine. But then sometimes you get rained up.
Hank
Whatever.
Ella
Do you guys know anyone who's been struck by lightning?
Reed
I don't, no.
KB
They always have like twice though. All right.
Ella
Yeah, I've seen the videos where people get like. They're hiking and all of a sudden their hair starts to stand up and.
Big Cat
Oh yeah, they get the freckles and
Ella
it's like you're about to get struck. But I don't know anybody who's been hit.
Brandon
It doesn't really happen.
Ella
My house got hit. My chimney got blown off twice in our shed got blown up by lightning.
Brandon
Jesus.
Big Cat
Yeah, one of the.
Danny
I don't.
Big Cat
Oh, sorry. Go ahead. You know, goes. One of the. One of the huts at.
Reed
At my rural home got.
Big Cat
Got hit and it split the whole fucking wall from top to bottom pretty much.
Reed
Damn.
Big Cat
Oh, my name's Gnarly.
Hank
That's Gnarly.
Danny
A cool story from you, Zoba, for you. I don't think that was lightning. I think that was neighborhood kids fucking with your shed.
Ella
Yeah, neighbor kids also blew up the shed.
Brandon
There we go.
Ella
We had to go to. We had two different.
Danny
She had lightning and a kids blower
Ella
within the span of like a year.
Danny
Wow. That shed was doomed.
KB
You had kids blow up your shed?
Ella
Yeah, we've talked about on here before, but yeah, these teens were going through the neighborhood spray painting everybody's sheds. And then they discovered that ours was unlocked and so they went in it and they covered it with. My dad kept gasoline in there for the mower. They like douse it in gasoline. They like blew up our shed.
Hank
Oh, yeah, yeah, classic.
Danny
Was lightning first or second on the blow up the shed?
Ella
Second. So then we had to get a new shed and then lightning hit the new shed, the whole thing.
KB
And your chimney was like, dismembered.
Ella
I got hit by lightning twice. Like, got. So then we had to get lightning Rods on everything. And then whenever it stormed, it was like the house was a lightning rod. And that was really scary too. Not a fan.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Ella
It wouldn't be big lightning. We're on top of a hill.
Frankie
Okay.
Ella
So I think we're the first.
Brandon
Damn.
Ella
Nobody else? Nobody else.
Danny
No.
Brandon
My house is.
Danny
I've never gotten.
Ella
No.
Danny
No. I never had any lightning.
Ella
Especially down south. I feel like you should know some people who've been hit.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Brandon
Yeah.
Danny
Definitely worse down there.
Ella
Your friend with the fish in the strip club, he probably knows.
Brandon
He looks like a guy.
Ella
Yeah.
Danny
Yeah. I'll check with Blake, see if he's been struck by lightning. It's very, very possible that on a hog hunt or something, he's been struck by lightning.
Ella
Rome was on that plane that got hit by light.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Brandon
He said it was really scary.
Big Cat
And I was so drunk he didn't realize.
Brandon
Oh, that's good.
Big Cat
Yeah. The story went that he. Remember, he said he was like. He was drunk and then he saw, I think the flight attendant the next day and they're like. You don't realize how close we were to dying. I don't think.
Mincy
Do.
Big Cat
Do planes crash because of lightning? I don't think so.
Brandon
I wouldn't be shocked.
Danny
Sure they have, but I don't know.
Big Cat
I don't get planes. No plane has crashed from turbulence, I don't think.
Hank
I feel like we have the.
KB
If we. I don't know if we have the technology.
Hank
Like, it happened all the time.
KB
No.
Big Cat
Yeah, maybe used to.
Hank
Yeah.
Big Cat
Because then planes are shitty. They fly above the lightning most of the time.
Ella
Yeah. I feel like they try to avoid it.
Brandon
Yeah.
Frankie
And then.
Danny
And then when they're landing or taking off, they won't take off. Or land. And lightning.
Brandon
So don't like birds take down planes?
Big Cat
Yeah, for sure.
Ella
That was the Hudson Goose.
Brandon
Yeah.
Big Cat
Birds.
Danny
Well, not all. That's not really birds.
Brandon
Birds are definitely not
Big Cat
a lot of birds.
Danny
Most birds, Yeah.
Hank
A lot of birds.
Brandon
I'm assuming you guys got to the bottom of Connor Griffin being wildly horny.
Danny
Yeah, we. He just acted like it was just another day.

Danny
He's wearing the Tate McCray McCray's tits on his chest.
Big Cat

Hank
He's dressed appropriately.
Brandon

Reed
What is that?
Brandon
It's a Lego chick.

It makes mine feel much less special. Now, I'm sure they let that guy in. I'm sure she's got a rich old miss friend who's gonna fly him down in a private jet and let him.
Big Cat
Did the Masters ticket fairy just show up? Interesting development.
Brandon
Yeah, he deserves a little relaxation.
Danny
Now, I want to. I want to let you guys in on a little family secret, and then you guys work with me through this. But don't just jump to any conclusions. Right? Okay. We agreed.
Brandon
Great.
Big Cat
I think.
Danny
You haven't agreed. Kate. You haven't agreed. Mark you. I'm not gonna agree. All right. You know, I split my tickets every year with my sister. I go on Thursday and Friday, she goes on Saturday. Sunday. Mintz just all of a sudden has a ticket for. For Saturday? I don't think I'm taking the tickets Thursday and Friday.
Hank
Oh, no.
Danny
Is my sister dating Ben Metz?
Hank
Oh, no.
Big Cat
Would that be the worst thing that could happen to you?
Danny
It's up there. Yeah.
Big Cat
I prefer dating your mom, Nancy.
Danny
Dating my mom.
Brandon
Which would you rather walk in on?
KB
Honest to God, there might be a little worse.
Danny
Sister.
Big Cat
No, but he's like. It's his sister in name only. He doesn't even know her birthday.
Danny
Right. It's February 10th.
KB
I. Yeah.
Danny
No. My mom's 68. My sister's 30. Something.
Ella
Probably the worst thing would be both.
Brandon
Oh, yeah.
Hank
Both would be awful at the same time.
Brandon
He's like, equal attention.
Big Cat
Because, like, if your mom ever said, like, oh, man, he's keeping me young.
Reed
Yeah.
Big Cat
Oh, that'd be brutal.
Brandon
What if the reason she had to get out of town is because he dumped her?
Big Cat
Yeah.
KB
Would you rather mincy dump your mom or just stay with her for eternity?
Danny
How do we get to this? I was just doing master's tickets with my sister.
Big Cat
Would you rather. I didn't agree, remember?
Danny
I guess none of you did agree.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Danny
I don't know.
Brandon
If he cheated on your mom, would you fight him?
Frankie
Yeah.
Hank
Would you be pissed?
Reed
Yeah.
Big Cat
Like, if your mom came over and was bawling her eyes out and you're like, mama, what happened? She's like, benjamin. Benjamin went out last night, didn't come home till 3am Think I'd be happy
Brandon
that he cheated on your mom?
Hank
She does call him Benjamin.
Big Cat
Yeah. Benjamin for sure. For sure.
Danny
I don't. I. It would be over at that point, Right. So that would be a good result.
Big Cat
Oh. And then she's like, but I want. I can't.
Brandon
He's the best I've ever had.
KB
When it's good, it's good. I can't quit him.
Hank
Rip my heart into a million pieces.
Big Cat
He's like a drug.
Brandon
The highs are high, but the. The lows, he's.
Big Cat
Sexual napop.
Danny
I guess I'd have to ask her what she wants me to do that do. I do it? Beat him up do.
KB
I can't quit him. I'm, like, innately attracted to him. My genetics are attracted to this man that you share with me.
Frankie
And he walks up to you and says, it's nothing personal, buddy.
Danny
So, yeah, Ben's going to the Masters. Looks like he got a ticket.
Big Cat
Is he actually. I'm actually excited because then he doesn't have to be on the mini golf team.
Danny
No, I think he will because he's not going till Saturday, right?
Big Cat
No, he's got to go Thursday. Yeah, he's got to go.
Danny
The text I got from him, look
Big Cat
at that fuzzy little head.
KB
There's no way he can get in, right?
Brandon
Is there a dress code?
KB
There has to be, like, a visual optic screening.
Brandon
Yeah, Right.
Danny
He said, what day are you going? Looks like I have a ticket for either Friday or Saturday, which I don't know how you don't know that.
Big Cat
So he's got to Go. He's got to go Thursday.
Danny
He has to go now.
White Sox Dave
He better get there.
Big Cat
Get out of here, dude. Go on. Get.
Hank
Leave now.
Danny
All right. That's. I can't believe this is the men's topic we're talking about.
Big Cat
Why? Oh, yeah. Poor lady.
Reed
Yeah.
Danny
What did he think? What did it? What?
Big Cat
What?
Danny
What goes into all this?
Ella
What?
Hank
Why?
Danny
Why'd he post it?
Hank
Why did you post.
Danny
Why'd he do it?
Hank
Yeah.
Danny
Like, those feet are beyond repair.
KB
Oh, yeah.
Danny
What's he haven't had?
Big Cat
What?
KB
Pretty gross.
Frankie
All she got was a thank you.

That looks like a cadaver.
Hank
It does.
Cody
You just.
Brandon

Big Cat
You don't.
KB
She grabbed.
Brandon
I feel. I. I love pedicures. I feel guilty every time I'm getting one.
Danny
What if you have those feet?
Brandon
I would feel worse.
Hank
Have you ever taken a picture of the woman?
Brandon
I sure have.
Reed
No.
Hank
Posted it on the Internet?
Ella
No.
KB
Oh, look at that. She clutched his toe and it, like, crumpled like feta. Too. Aged. She aged in Oxford for 13 years.
Brandon
I zoomed the toenails.
Big Cat
Just.
Danny
Yeah, it's disturbing.
Brandon
It's years of probably having your shoes on the wrong feet. Yeah. Big stretch.
Danny
Oh, yeah.
Brandon
Fair or foul, we have lunch catered often. And if you find out the place that's catering and call ahead and get them to bring you your own salad.
Danny
God damn it.
KB
No, That's.
Big Cat
That didn't happen, did it? Did it really?
Brandon
I won't say who.
Big Cat
That's crazy. That's crazy. That's crazy.

Brandon
Yeah.
Big Cat
Oh, God. Oh, yeah. What would you. I would try something different first, but. Yeah.

I hate it.
Brandon
You do?
Hank
Why?
Brandon
It's just more puzzle, man.
Big Cat
You can't cheat.
KB
There's no. You could cheat. There's just not. Like it's the two. It's the mini and the regular, and then that's just purgatory.
Big Cat
Have you been back on the crossroad game?
Hank
Yes.
Brandon
Good.

We have sessions every day.
Big Cat
Great.

We're back in 2014.

KB
No. It's so hard to not. I feel like other.
Big Cat
I think at the crossroads is hard.
KB
No.
Big Cat
Yeah, because.
KB
Are you still fasting?
Big Cat
Yeah.
Frankie
What are you on?
Danny
That's 44 hours. So you get to eat in four hours?
Big Cat
I don't know. I might go 72.
KB
Wow.
Big Cat
I'm not hungry.
Frankie
Were you really hungry at all last night?
KB
How was last night?
Big Cat
Monday morning I was hungry last night. I was busy. I had to. I came back to the office to finish the coach's blog. So I think being busy was able to keep me away from it. But yeah, I, I woke up this morning, I was like. Felt great. Maybe around like 7:30 in the morning, I was like a little hungry and then I just haven't even thought about it since. I might just never eat again.
Brandon
It could work.
Hank
How much ice cream have you had during this fast?
Frankie
That's zero.
Hank
Wow.
Big Cat
Yeah, I. I'm surprised that it's like. I think maybe you just get to a point where you just don't. Your body's used to it. I don't know. Or, or maybe it's more. We. We underestimate how resilient our bodies are.
KB
Yeah.
Big Cat
People like, oh, need food, need food. I've not thought about food today.
Brandon
Now, do you think once this is all said and done, you end up gaining weight?
Big Cat
No, because I think I'm gonna be a fast guy now. Like this was remarkably easy. Again, I haven't done 72 hours, so I don't know.
Danny
I may.
Big Cat
The, the only thing that sucks is like the boredom of not having a meal. You know what I mean? Like that's a, that's a nice thing being like, what am I gonna do tonight? I'm gonna have a meal.
Brandon
Meals are how I break apart my days.
Big Cat
Right.
Brandon
I have a meal and then I just count down. So.
Big Cat
But other than that I don't. Should I try to go 72?
Danny
No. That's what I say.
Brandon
No, for your first one I wouldn't
KB
be like fully committed. But see, just see how you feel.
Big Cat
Well, I gotta make a decision if I'm gonna eat tonight or not.
Danny
You can't make a game time decision.
Big Cat
Yeah, no, because. Yeah, maybe I can. I. I feel good. I don't know. Maybe fasting is like just the thing.
KB
Do you feel better than you usually do?
Big Cat
I feel completely normal. Maybe a little. Definitely lighter on my feet.
Reed
Okay.
Big Cat
So yeah, give my body a break. Reset everything. I think fasting is you.
Brandon
Yeah. When's your last.
Big Cat
Last night? Around seven.
Brandon
Was it pathetic?
Big Cat
No. That was Sundays.
Brandon
Sundays.
Big Cat
No, I could see it was Sundays.
Brandon
Oh.
Big Cat
Like, I. I was like, that was something.
Brandon
That was Sunday.
Reed
Yeah. Yeah.
Brandon
It's cool to be able to.
Kyle
Yeah.
Big Cat
Yeah. I'm like, I know where that came from. Yeah. No, I haven't. Haven't since then.
Brandon
Interesting.
KB
Amazing.
Big Cat
I don't.
Danny
I don't know.
KB
You have, like, a message to, like, do it. Other people who are.
Big Cat
I still don't really know why I'm doing it, other than I just wanted to do it. Yeah, I guess. Do it. Everyone should just do it. Try it. It's not that hard.
Danny
It's.
Big Cat
You just stop eating.
Frankie
I overheard Mint trying to talk to you about it yesterday.
Big Cat
Oh, man. When I started talking, he started slinking over.
Danny
I was like.
Frankie
And he was like. I did one of those a couple months ago. It's a lot easier when you're just eating Adderall.
Big Cat
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Reed
Maybe a little.
Big Cat
No, I'm going all natural. I've had black coffee, and there's, like, electrolyte powder that I put in. I put in my water twice yesterday.
KB
Wow.
Big Cat
It's supposed to, like, stop from, like, potentially cramping. You should do it, Kyle. I mean, you have done it.
Reed
I'm sure I have.
Big Cat
Right?
KB
I never really felt better. Just a little dizzy.
Big Cat
Yeah. Maybe I'll get dizzy later today. Maybe I'll eat tonight. Maybe I'll just save the 72 for another time. Brandy, you should do it. No, just test yourself.
Danny
Yeah. So that doesn't sound like a good. A good time. It's.
Big Cat
Seriously, I can't stress enough that, like, other than Monday morning, I haven't thought
Danny
about it, but I would think about it. I think about what I'm eating for dinner. Every day I wake up, I think about. I know what I'm eating for dinner tonight.
Big Cat
What are you eating?
Danny
I'm eating at a restaurant.
Big Cat
Oh.
Danny
Yeah.
Big Cat
But I. Steak?
Danny
No, no, no, no, no. It's not that kind of restaurant.
Brandon
Little restaurant.
Danny
I'm taking the youngest boy to the Bucs game tonight.
Big Cat
Oh, hell, yeah.
Danny
And there's a good. I'm eating stadium food, and I serve food.
Big Cat
Stadium or restaurant?
Danny
Yeah. Okay.
Brandon
If any Yak fans are going and want to kiss Brandon in front of his son, swing through.
Danny
The brewers in town tonight, so I'm hoping that keeps the crowd down. Yeah. I can't. I just can't even fathom wanting to fast. I can't. I can't.
Brandon
I can't for, like, even a short amount of time.
Danny
No, I just. That time, y'. All did a 24 hour fast.
Big Cat
Yeah. You couldn't handle it?
Danny
I couldn't. I just don't know. There are ways, I think that I could get in shape or take care of my body that don't involve not eating.
Brandon
What if we replaced wet with 48 hour fast on the wheel?
Danny
No pass.
Brandon
You'd rather wet?
Danny
I'd rather wet.
Brandon
Have you seen the wheel?
Danny
I've heard.
Big Cat
Should we do it now?
Danny
Might as well. If somebody has to get. Jesus Christ.
Big Cat
Oh, maybe we shouldn't do it now.
Danny
I do it at the end. It's. It's always hilarious at the end when somebody walks in.
Big Cat
It's very funny.
Danny
Let somebody be wet for an hour. It's funnier. Oh, no.
Hank
We got to get people in here.
Big Cat
Got to get people. We have to get people in.
Brandon
We don't even know if it's wet. Odds are it's not.
Danny
There's just no way any of this is true. I asked Ben how he got tickets. I asked Ben. Ben means how he got tickets. He told me, I'm not going to tell the reason he's getting one this year because it's kind of. I have four in my family from when the event was founded. My great uncle was the golf pro at Augusta Country Club, not Augusta national. In the 40s.
Big Cat
Nuh.
Hank
That actually checks out. I mean, yeah. There has to be an explanation.
Big Cat
Max is watching.
KB
He said his great uncle.
Brandon
Is he confusing?
Reed
That it?
Brandon
No.
Big Cat
Oh, that's. What's the booth in there for, Chuck? I want to talk about Illinois Hoops for.
Danny
What did you say? Tj?

Okay, cool.

Brandon
He had shit on his hat?
Danny
Oh, he walked in with bird shit on his hat. And we were like, you got a bird shit on your hat? He said, nuh. And he's throwing his hat. He took it off. He said, oh, I must have happened on My walk. And I was gonna say he put it back on, but he did throw
Big Cat
the hat away to.
Frankie
To deny it before even checking.
Danny
Deny it before checking. Yes.
Brandon
I love like I. I was searching old pictures of White Sox Dave just for myself because I didn't know he had a former Twitter account. Shy socks barstool. And I searched that on Twitter and I went to photos and I saved everything. There's one Northwestern. He's a Northwestern garb.
Big Cat
I want to see this.
Brandon
A tiny purple beanie and his, his face looks so small surrounded by his like rest of face.
KB
It's just.
Brandon
Search it. It's just there's a lot of like he got into an argument with Dave Portnoy about like how you should keep the sticker on your flat brim and it's him looking cool in the driver's seat with the brim up with a sticker on below.
Big Cat
Oh my God.
Brandon
It's the best.

Brandon
It's really flat.

No, no, no, no. He's really bl. In his late 30s. The Northwestern one I really loved.

Frankie
The beanie.

How long ago were these pictures?
Big Cat
2013. Yeah.

Brandon
What was white. What was he like when you first met him and what was he like in 27?
Big Cat
Same. Just like just the same. He's just perfect. He's perfect.
Brandon
He is. That's why Brandon needs follow heed his advice.
Big Cat
What's it.
Brandon
What's of parenting advice?
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah, he did give. I heard all the details. No, don't make your kids soft.
Danny
He doesn't want my kids turn out soft.
Big Cat
Don't take them on vacations.
Danny
Correct. Don't give them things.
Hank
He wants every kid to turn out like him. But he also doesn't want to have kids, which is.
Danny
He wanted to know what my kids drove, where my daughter drives.
Big Cat
Okay.
Danny
So he could determine if she's soft or not. Well.
Big Cat
And did he.
Danny
Did he determine he felt like that's a soft vehicle, your Jeep? Yes, yes.
Big Cat
What would be a hard view?
Danny
I don't know. For a 17 year old girl, I don't know if she has to have
Brandon
like a 1979 Peter that was no more than $3,000.
Danny
That's right.
Big Cat
Pretty sure if you have means like the goal is to just put your kid in a safe car.
Danny
Correct.
Big Cat
Jeep. Pretty much it.
Frankie
And it was still like a hand me down brand new car.
Danny
If you drive it right, it's safe.
Frankie
Was your first time seeing Dave in the gum clip or he.
Big Cat
He was already. Yeah.
Frankie
So then what. What made you realize the talent there?
Big Cat
Yeah.
Brandon
How did he have the job? He has it without doubt, but he has it. So was he was.
Big Cat
He was just blogging white socks and
Frankie
then
Big Cat
I had met him a few times at like watch parties and stuff? Yeah, I mean you, you guys know him, he's just perfect.
Ella
Did you know O.J. simpson like broke up his parents marriage? Yeah.
Big Cat
Wait, what?
Ella
Simpson like was the final tipping point
KB
of his own parents or Dave Williams.
Big Cat
Wait, we gotta get him down.
Ella
White Sox. Dave's parents.
Hank
White Sox. Dave's parents divorced because of OJ it was their final.
Ella
Yes.
Big Cat
Hold on.
Danny
One of them believed he was innocent. One believed.
Ella
No, they ran into him at a bar car.
Big Cat
Wait, hold on.
Ella
A vacation? Maybe that's why he doesn't like what ensued. His dad fangirled over O.J. and his mom was like, he's a murderer. You can. And that was like the final.
Big Cat
I think that's incredible.
Ella
Yeah. And again, I think that was on a nice little Florida vacation, which is maybe why he's anti vacation.
Brandon
Ah, that could be led to his
Ella
parents divorce deep seated.
Frankie
I want to meet his dad so bad.
Brandon
You never have met William Williams.
Frankie
Oh, he won't let us.
Ella
Is that his name?
Frankie
Yeah, William Williams.
Ella
He just gets better.
KB
William.
Brandon
So wait, the gum clip was. He was already a barstool employee?
Frankie
Yeah, that would make sense. Okay, part time.
Brandon
Oh my God.
Frankie
I was just wondering, like you had to have seen video footage of him before that, right?
Brandon
Yeah, like what was it?
Frankie
Because I don't know if I could be sold from like a blog, you know, I'd have to meet him first.
Big Cat
Did. Why? Did anyone watch?
Reed
Oh, yeah, this is, it's like, it's like.
Big Cat
I don't know why that came up. I wanted to hear about O.J. simpson bringing up your parents marriage.
Hank
What are you doing?
Danny
Totally empty chair.
Reed
Didn't want to cut through all the cor.
Danny
Why would you.
Hank
There, there's, there's, there's shorter p. A.
Big Cat
M.
Brandon
You worked in logistics for a decade.
Hank
Could have walked around two chairs. Instead you walked around.
Reed
Okay,
White Sox Dave
yeah, we were at a tiki bar in. I think it was Isla Morada, Florida.
Brandon
You think so?
White Sox Dave
Keys. And he walked in, he was singing Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison, like with 12 guys. He had a whole posy with him. My dad was shitfaced. His buddy that came with us was shitfaced. They went up and shook his hand and like shot the shit with them for a minute. I'm out of breath from walking down
Danny
the stairs and no shame in that.
White Sox Dave
Yeah, I know. I knew you'd appreciate that.
Danny
Yeah.
White Sox Dave
And after that he went into like a back private room and my mom freaked out of my dad. And like a year later, that was it.
Big Cat
Damn.
KB
Oh my God.
Brandon
OJ and that's pretty vivid in your memory. You side were you on in that instance?
White Sox Dave
It was my dad. I mean, that's the only guy that's ever rushed for 2000 yards in a 14 game NFL season.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Danny
Yeah. Number one thing he's known for.
White Sox Dave
Yeah.
Big Cat
What year was this?
Danny
And away?
White Sox Dave
I was like 6. I was 16, 17. So what was that, like junior in high school?
Reed
I think so.
Big Cat
Was that like 2?
Danny
How old are you?
White Sox Dave
Oh, 5ish.
Big Cat
Okay.
Danny
It's about 10 years. 11 years after the murders.
Big Cat
How old are you?
White Sox Dave
37.
Danny
Okay.
Big Cat
You're on the old squad.
Brandon
Did a bird on you?
White Sox Dave
Yeah, yesterday.
Big Cat
Damn, that's good.
White Sox Dave
I honestly thought that's what I said.
Danny
Yeah. Yeah.
White Sox Dave
I thought that's what I was coming down here for.
Big Cat
No, that's good luck.
White Sox Dave
Yeah.
Big Cat
Okay. Did the White Sox win last night?
White Sox Dave
They did.
Big Cat
They did.
Brandon
Hey, now that was a turning point. Hey, Was it a White Sox hat that got on?
White Sox Dave
It was a hat that I grabbed as I was walking out of the door that I wore for five minutes and then threw it out because of the bird shed.
Brandon
Was it a white socks hat?
White Sox Dave
No, I think it was this hat.
Hank
Black Dave.
Big Cat
That's bad for our bet.
White Sox Dave
I know it is.
Big Cat
Dave and I have a bet he's. He gave up on the White Sox season after three games.
White Sox Dave
I didn't give up on it.
Big Cat
You said they're going to lose 100
Danny
games they can hit.
Big Cat
And I said if they don't lose 100 games, so they have to win 63 games or more. If I. If they win 63 games or more or if they lose 100 games, I owe them $1,000. If they win 63 games or More, he has to bake me banana bread every single week from October to January 1st.
Brandon
He does that anyway. So. Nothing.
Danny
Yeah.
Big Cat
But he has to hand me a fresh banana bread every single week.
Brandon
Do you have the sticker on the brim of that hat?
White Sox Dave
No.
Brandon
Okay.
Danny
Did you get away from that lifestyle?
White Sox Dave
I did. I saw that yesterday. I. That's like. That's. That's something. Dave passed, I guess. That is. I don't ever at one time, at any point in my life remember saying, I'm a sticker guy. And I saw the tweet. I obviously have. That's embarrassing because sticker guys are the worst.
Big Cat
I love it. Fuck it.
White Sox Dave
I would have been.
Big Cat
It was so perfect.
White Sox Dave
I was so much closer to Nicky Smokes than I realized. And I don't say that in a bad way.
Big Cat
No, that is a bad.
Danny
I was I think you did say in a bad.
White Sox Dave
I just the. I don't know if douche is the right word because I like. I don't like douchebags, but I like Nicky Smokes. And we all call him a different type of dude. Yeah. You know what I mean?
KB
Right. So what's a better bravado? I don't. You're like a. A professional paintball fan at a Limp Bizkit concert.
Cody
Kyle.
Brandon
That's a douchebag.
Big Cat
That's such a good picture.
KB
So maybe just different decades.
Big Cat
I love it.
White Sox Dave
That picture. I. I'm pretty sure we. I was on my way to Blackhawks watch party for one of their playoff runs.
Big Cat
No. August 28th. It was.
Danny
Well, that was Dave. Well, that was Dave tweeting something.
White Sox Dave
I remember taking that picture and we were on our way to, like, a watch party for.
Big Cat
Oh, maybe that was.
Reed
Yeah.
Big Cat
Why.
Hank
Why did you take that picture?
White Sox Dave
My buddy took it. I don't know.
Hank
Okay.
White Sox Dave
My buddy Ryan did.
Brandon
He got.
Big Cat
I love.
Brandon
He just randomly took that picture of you?
Hank
Yeah. Was. This was the thought behind it, like, I look sweet.
Big Cat
You do.
Cody
I do.
Brandon
So maybe you gotta miss that Dave a little bit.
Big Cat
But that is the best, though, to see a picture of, like, yourself from 10 years ago and be like, I am significantly more attractive now.
Brandon
Sticker there.
Danny
Who does your beard now?
Big Cat
You're way more attractive.
Danny
Huh? Joel does it every week, every two weeks. Because your beard is. Is the most vast improvement you've made.
Big Cat
That's an awesome glow.
White Sox Dave
I've never had an issue. Obviously, the grooming of the beard was an issue.
Danny
That's what I'm saying. Yeah.
White Sox Dave
The growth of it. It was all the. It always had potential. I just didn't tap into that potential until, like, honestly, six months ago. I never lined up my beard one time my entire life. Like, professional.
Danny
Well, it's lined up now, and it looks great.
White Sox Dave
Thank you, Brandon.
Danny
You're welcome.
Big Cat
Okay.
White Sox Dave
Okay.
Big Cat
We love you.
Brandon
How did you get discovered by Barstool?
Big Cat
Were you blogging under Neil and then.
White Sox Dave
Yeah.
Big Cat
Yeah.
White Sox Dave
That's like, kind of one of the. I'm pretty. I'm, like, 95% sure. I had a blog posted two hours before you did on the same day that you posted your first.
Brandon
Oh, so you outrank Big Cat.
White Sox Dave
Yeah, pretty much. That's what I'm saying. Yeah.
Brandon
Seniority.
Reed

Big Cat
Yeah. I was saying it's crazy. Like, I've known you for 14 years.
White Sox Dave
Yeah. Long time.
Big Cat
Long time. He's my guy.
White Sox Dave
That's well over.
Big Cat
Look at that. That was the that was the Christmas party.
Brandon

Frankie

Hank

Big Cat
The boys remember that? We went to. We. No, it was. It was. We stool Internet.
White Sox Dave
We were launching the. It was a blizzard or something.
Big Cat

White Sox Dave
On Lincoln. Yes, on Lincoln.
Big Cat
And there was. It was like a blizzard. And there was no one out on the streets. Then we went to a bar and just had.
White Sox Dave
We had. We had a case of beer on us for some reason. I remember. Yes, we're throwing the beers across in the street.
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah. It's a good time.
White Sox Dave
And there was nobody out there.
Reed
Like a Covid.
KB
Like.
Big Cat
Yeah, lockdown night Thursday.
White Sox Dave
But it was a blizzard or something. It was like a ghost town and we were just chucking beers.
Danny
I just said like a blizzard.
White Sox Dave
No, but that's what it felt like. It felt like COVID lockdown days.
Big Cat
He said what he said.
Danny
He did say what he said. Sad.
White Sox Dave
Oh, those are fun.
Danny
Nice.
Brandon
Yeah, nice walk down memory lane.
Hank
How do you feel when you look back on those pictures? Are you more like, this is cool how far I've come? Are you like, I can't believe that's where I was.
Frankie
Yeah, you got a little bit of diary.
Reed
A little bit of both.
White Sox Dave
I just really, really, really liked to drink. When I was in my 20s, I would have been best fucking friends with K. Dick and those guys. Now, like, I don't like to drink at all. It's kind of wild that.
Danny
Yeah, you do, don't you?
White Sox Dave
I mean, I'll. I'll drink. I don't.
Kyle
I don't.
White Sox Dave
I didn't quit drinking, but like, I
Brandon
don't get fucked up.
White Sox Dave
I haven't gotten like blackout whackout mode in a long, long.
Big Cat
I need to see blackout whack out mode.
Brandon
I need you on the case.
Ella
Yeah. Case race.
Big Cat
Yeah. Next case race, we gotta do a royal rumble one Again.
White Sox Dave
Those days I would have been like an anchor for the case races these days. I will be. I'll be faced out of my skull after 10 beers.
Brandon
That's a lot of.
Danny
10's a lot.
Hank
It's a lot of beer.
White Sox Dave
It's not like I used to be able to drink, though.
Big Cat
Yeah, but 10 beers in an hour and a half?
White Sox Dave
Yeah, that's a lot. That's a lot. I don't think I could do that. And not definitely not in an hour and a half. In like a course of a night. That would me up.
Big Cat
We gotta do another case Race.
Danny
Well, we do the Royal Rumble in the summer, right?
Big Cat
Yeah, but it's been too long. It feels like. When was the last time we did a case?
Brandon
A Royal Rumble one.
Danny
When is our last?
Big Cat
And now we have Deutsch full time.
Brandon
Oh my God.
Hank
Yeah.
Mincy
Thanksgiving.
Danny
Yeah.
Big Cat
Yeah, that's right. We did Thanksgiving. Case race. That was good a while ago, Mike.
Danny
I don't know. They see Danny messes with these.
Big Cat
I didn't know someone messed with these.
Danny
Danny messes. Danny seats everything.
Big Cat
Everything.
Frankie
You hid my cushion today.
Brandon
Are you gonna be. Is tomorrow April Fools?
Danny
Sure is. Tomorrow's April. Oh my God, Conrad.
Frankie
It's a big holiday tomorrow. Brandon.
Hank
What college is gonna have a purple field? Find out tomorrow.
Brandon
That'll be sick.
Big Cat
What are you gonna do, Danny?
Frankie
I can't tell you now, can I?
Big Cat
If you do anything, I'm gonna kill you.
Reed
Yeah, like what?
Frankie
What's the line?
Big Cat
Any.
Brandon
So you do play. You plan on doing stuff?
Frankie
Well, now it's kind of hyped up. Now I gotta really pull something big off. Probably wasn't gonna beat any of you guys though.
Big Cat
How did April fool start, huh?
Danny
Great question.
Big Cat
Yeah, I don't know.
Hank
Some guy got caught doing something and he's like, honey, I'm full of April Fool.
Big Cat
Do you guys ever watch those prank videos that are not pranks, that they make me laugh? I know it's very stupid, but it would be like a guy being like, I'm gonna prank my girlfriend and drink 16 beers before she comes home. And then like the girlfriend comes. Like a nurse comes home and he's hammered. He's like, gotcha. Pranked you. I don't know why it works.
Hank
That's how April fool started, Stuff like that.
Reed
Yeah.
Big Cat
Pranked you. I just drank all these beers and now I'm shit faced. All right, Dave. Well, great seeing you.
White Sox Dave
Great seeing you guys. Thank you, guys.
Big Cat
Bryn, do State Farm after I do State Farm water.
Danny
What I do. Think we should spin the wheel early and have someone sit and wet it for an hour? Well, we got Dave.
Hank
We need more.
Big Cat
They probably. They probably forgot about it.
Hank
But we need more people. We need more people.
Big Cat
All right.
Danny
I just. I just think it's better if we. If. If we make the wet sit in the wet. In basketball, the great players don't just go it alone. They have teammates, coaches, and a solid support system behind them. It's kind of like insurance because let's face it, a lot of us probably aren't great at doing that alone either. That's where State Farm comes in. State Farm is a teammate, always ready to assist to help you find the coverage you need and help you recover from the unexpected. From fender benders to storm damage, even. Just a question about policy, The State Farm is there to help provide an assist when you need it, through the State Farm mobile app, a network of 19,000 local agents, and online@statefarm.com. so don't just go it alone. When you need help protecting what matters most, State Farm is there. State Farm with the assist. Coverage options are selected by the customer. Availability and eligibility vary by state. State Farm with the assist.
Brandon
Good read, my man.

Danny
Sure.
Hank
Why? You know what I mean? One of those guys where it's just like, how could you possibly like him? And I really explain it.

Ella
Other way. Further up.
Danny
What's he doing up?
Ella
Memory's gonna drink the outlines. Oh, they're gone.
Hank

Big Cat
That's great.
Brandon
Yeah, he's good.
Big Cat
I love it.
KB
Yeah.
Brandon

Big Cat
Wait, Yeah, I think he should have
Danny
done Connecticut a little smaller.
Brandon
Arizona is pretty tiny.
Reed
It's good.
Danny
Why.
Hank
Why did he turn the bridges about
KB
to be 20 to 30 in each.
Hank
Why are they. Why are they vertical?
Brandon
I'm sure there's easier to read.
Hank
Yeah. Why?
Brandon
That will be the best shirt.
Hank
Turn it sideways.
Mincy
His patented N is on top of where it says final four.
Brandon
Oh, is it.
Hank
Can I get. Can you show us all the four cans? Which ones that is would be best on a shirt?
Big Cat
It's Illinois.
Hank
I do think it is Illinois. We. We clocked Illinois the second we saw, like the green outline with the Yukon's
Big Cat
just its regular color.
Hank
Yukon looks normal. I think Arizona's got something funny.
Brandon
I think we have to root for Illinois.
Hank
Yeah.
Brandon
So be it.
Hank
Undrinkable.
Brandon
Undrinkable. Illinois.
Danny
Oh, Illinois.
Big Cat
Well, and also Vill wins. All of our futures come back to us.

So he's gonna cover the entire state with beers.
Big Cat
Yeah.
KB
Drink that amount if they lose.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Brandon
Okay.
KB
Michigan is deceivingly big.
Big Cat
It is.
KB
It is larger than Minnesota. Utah.
Danny
That's shocked.
Brandon
I would have never guessed.
KB
It's been Idaho.
Big Cat
Sweet than Idaho.
KB
It's bigger than Idaho.
Danny
Minnesota's big, isn't it?
KB
Like me in Michigan. Yeah, you wouldn't think. I don't. I don't. Even with the up.
Danny
Yeah.
Brandon
I still don't know if I believe that.
Reed
Yeah.
Big Cat
Cody, come in here.
KB
It's the Napoleon of states.
Hank
There he is. There's my guy.
Big Cat
So, Cody, this actually is a real thing. And also we wanted to have you on in case we get wet. Yeah. Cody wants. Have you guys heard about this?
Danny
I don't know what you're saying.
Brandon
Has he been begging?
Big Cat
Cody wants, Snagging wants. He's doing a fundraiser for his wedding.
Cody
No.
Danny
Yeah, I haven't. I haven't heard about this.
Big Cat
Brandon, he came up to me. He's like, hey, can we. Could you make a Stella blue gift package for my fundraiser for my wedding? I was like, what?
Cody
It's a stag party.
Big Cat
Okay.
Cody
Which is a Buffalo tradition. I didn't realize no one really had heard of it before.
Big Cat
Okay, makes sense.
Danny
What is it?
Cody
Basically, we rented out a space. People buy tickets.
Big Cat
What type of space?
Cody
Like a bar.
Big Cat
Is it a bar or like a bar?
Cody
Bar adjacent.
Big Cat
So it's not a bar.
Brandon
So what's the space?
Big Cat
What is the space?
KB
Space.
Big Cat
Is it a bar?
Cody
There's a bar. Yeah. Inside.
Frankie
It's a Chucky.
Danny
Okay.
Brandon
All right.
Big Cat
It's a whole buffalo.
Cody
Yeah.
Big Cat
Oh, okay. So like the Knights of Columbus.
Cody
Similar.
Reed
Yeah.
Big Cat
Where wing nuts used to be. Yeah, that place rocked Rolling Alley at a basketball court.
Danny
So.
Cody
Yeah, it's like. It's like that people buy a ticket, you know, there's kegs of beer, food, like open admission.
Brandon
Or it's invite.
Cody
Well, it's like invite. Yeah, it's people.
Big Cat
But anyone could come.
Reed
Sure.
Big Cat
Okay.
Ella
So it's like an engagement party for anyone.
Cody
It's like a bridal shower for brawlic dudes.
Hank
There we go.
Ella
Oh, it's dude.
Brandon
You're not.
Danny
But you're not like dude at all.
Frankie
What?
KB
This isn't for dudes. On. What is this during after your wedding?
Cody
It's. It's next month. It's a stag party, but they're a
Hank
fundraiser traditionally to a bridal shower. You don't pay.
KB
Right.
Hank
I mean, tickets.
Cody
Yeah, it's a buffalo thing.
Big Cat
And so you're auctioning off things.
Cody
So. Yeah, there's like baskets from different, like, brands.
Big Cat
The money goes to your wedding, correct? Huh? I guess. Yes.
Cody
Great. Thank you.
Ella
It's like how people do for medical expenses.
Cody
You already said so.
Hank
You have to. You're fronting the cost of renting the lodge, right? The. The alcohol, you front all that cost?
Cody
Yeah.
Hank
So you can raise money for your wedding, but you first have to raise money to pay for the lodge and the food and that. You see.
Brandon
Right.
Cody
Let's paid for. It's basically just celebration.
KB
It's.
Cody
It's different from a bachelor party.
Big Cat
Are you doing a bachelor party?
Cody
Yeah.
Big Cat
So you're doing both?
Cody
Yes.
Big Cat
Is there a fundraiser at the bachelor party?
Cody
No.
Hank
How are we going to raise. What I'm saying is, how are you going to raise money to even throw the stag party?
Big Cat
Right.
Reed
It's already.
Hank
Where's that money coming from? Should we have a party here?
Brandon
Oh, a pre stag party to have.
Big Cat
Oh, that's a good quality. Yes. On the act. Let's have a money pre stag.
Brandon
Let's do it.
KB
Okay.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Hank
Like that.
Brandon
Now, is there a chance you don't break even at this stat.
Cody
It was like a hundred bucks for the space.
Big Cat
What about the beer and the food?
Cody
Keg was like 200. So, like two of those probably.
Brandon
Food's probably like 400, so you're down a grand.
Danny
But it's like, food should be more.
Big Cat
How much are you gonna make off of this?
Brandon
Not much.
Cody
It's more of just like a celebration
Big Cat
kind of keep saying that word.
Brandon
But it's for people that you aren't close enough with to take on your bachelor.
Big Cat
And you want their money?
Brandon
Maybe like your fiance's dad, Will he be there?
Cody
Yeah, it'll be like her dad, his friends, like my friends, dads and, you know, my family and stuff.
Danny
Just drinking together.
Cody
Yeah, just an auctioning, playing cornhole, playing darts, pool, whatever.
Big Cat
What about the auction?
Cody
And then there's baskets where you can win a raffle.
Frankie
Well, who else have you asked to donate?
Cody
So we got stuff from like the Sabers and like.
Danny
Oh, about the bandits.
Cody
Bandits. Yep.
Big Cat
Yeah, we'll throw something in there.
Danny
Got something from the Sabers.
Brandon
Did you just reach out to the Sabers?
Cody
My buddy works there. Nice.
Danny
It's your buddy, Tage Thompson?
Cody
No, I wish.
Big Cat
I mean, I think this is kind of a cool thing. Except for the whole, like, I'm for it fundraiser part.
Ella
This?
Big Cat
Yeah, it feels like you should go to a charity.
Danny
No, but I mean, the weddings are expensive and, you know. Yeah.
Ella
Yeah.
Brandon
Are you obligated to give like a speech?
Cody
I don't think so.
Frankie
No.
Brandon
Okay.
Cody
No, it's more of just like.
Danny
You ever seen Cody's bed hanging out?
Big Cat
His bed?
Hank
Yeah, he's got a hospital bed in his kitchen.
Danny
He has a hospital?
Reed
Yeah.
Cody
Yeah.
Danny
Sleeps in a hospital bed.
Big Cat
Wait, but you have.
Hank
It's in his kitchen.
Big Cat
That was fiance.
Cody
Right?
Big Cat
You both sleep in the hospital bed.
Cody
That's a big bed.
Big Cat
Do we have a picture of it?
Cody
Yeah, it's on my Twitter somewhere.
Big Cat
I'd like to see this hospital bed because then I might have to up my stag party correct this. What about if I could just give you money?
Cody
I mean, you could do that, but how much.
Brandon
How much does it cost for a raffle ticket to get like, to get a basket?
Reed
The bat.
Cody
I mean, whatever. The basket would people want to donate the ticket to go is 30.
Big Cat
Okay, so what if we made a basket that was just a thousand dollars cash basket?
Cody
That would be insane.
Big Cat
Okay.
Cody
I feel like a lot of people would want to go for that.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Brandon
But like, what? You should try to win that one.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Cody
I mean, it's more just for fun. I mean, whoever wants to do it.
Reed
Yeah.
Big Cat
Okay.
Brandon
That would be a thousand dollar big cat basket.
Cody
A big cat basket? Yeah.
Big Cat
All right. I'm in for a basket.
Brandon
I love it.
Big Cat
I don't know what it will be.
Ella
Okay, can we each make a basket to send with you?
Brandon
I mean.
Hank
Yeah, you could basket for sure.
Big Cat
All right, so yeah, maybe in the pre stag party we make our baskets.
Danny
Oh, none of us are expected to come to the stag party, Correct? Correct.
Cody
Invited me you're invited for sure.
Brandon
But, like. Wait, you invited Big Cat?
Big Cat
Actually, you did.
Reed
Me?
Big Cat
You just asked for.
Danny
Invited Big Cat. But not the. Mostly guys.
Big Cat
No. Now that I'm thinking about. He did not invite me. He just asked.
Cody
I just said open. I don't think anyone is going to go to Buffalo for a stag party.
Big Cat
You don't know that.
Danny
I don't know if I wins the bachelor go for the wedding.
KB
When you put it like that. Stop calling it a stag party. Call it a ball.
Big Cat
Call it a fundraiser.
Hank
The fundraiser.
Danny
Cody's ball.
Cody
Cody's ball.
Reed
Yeah.
Cody
The bachelor's in May.
Big Cat
Where's that? New York City.
Cody
No, no, like upstate.
Big Cat
This is your Buffalo. Why are you being so vague?
Cody
Upstate New York.
Brandon
What do you think?
Big Cat
Like Finger Lakes?
Ella
Fingerling. Are you guys doing the wine stuff?
Cody
Probably just get, like, hang out.
KB
Yeah.
Big Cat
Drink, like in a hall or something?
Cody
No, like a house.
Hank
Is your fiance having a bridal shower?
Cody
Yeah.
Big Cat
And it's. How much does that cost?
Hank
Does that cost tickets for the people
Big Cat
who want to go?
Brandon
Yeah.
Cody
That was handled separately from my endeavors.
Ella
We are there people. So anyone can go to the stag party. Are there people in Buffalo who just love going to stag parties? And they just show up at stag parties?
Cody
Yeah, I mean, I.
Ella
People, like a stranger could come in and they'd be welcome.
Reed
Yeah.
Cody
Like, traditionally, like back in the day, people would put up flyers before social media. They put up flyers for, like, at a bar and like, oh, Johnny's having a stag on Friday night. Let me go down there and.
Big Cat
Oh, that's actually kind of cool.
KB
Yeah, it's like a.
Danny
So this is putting up a flyer. This is a flyer that you've.
Cody
Right.
Big Cat
So anyone listening right now could come, right? Yeah.
Cody

Big Cat
for sure, but any. Any yak fans in Buffalo, please come to Cody's stag party.
Danny
More money, right?
Ella
Yeah, That's a good thing.
Cody
Yeah, for sure. 50 people limit.
Danny
No, that's a small limit.
Frankie
So would it be weird if some random stranger just went to it that doesn't normally.
Brandon
Would you, like, ask him to leave?
Reed
No.
Big Cat
Money's green.
Cody
Money's green. Money talks. No, I wouldn't. I don't think it'd be weird. As long as they're not, like, weird.
Hank
But you want. You want more people there because you're
Cody
saying, like, I mean, at this moment, we. We have like, a ton of people coming that we know, like friends and family.

Oh, come on. So you're saying whoever this lands. Best of one, this person's going to Buffalo in April to go to the stag.
Danny
You're saying them.
Big Cat
But I. Yeah, we'll. We'll figure out.
Brandon
Okay.
KB
They'll be highly encouraged.
Big Cat
Highly encouraged.
Cody
Okay.
Hank
That's.
Reed
I love that.
Cody
This is the ultimate, like, thrill right here.
Big Cat
Really?
Cody
People sleep on Buffalo.
Ella
I love this idea.
Big Cat
You know I love Buffalo.
Hank
Well, yeah, of course I don't.
Cody
Have you been?
Hank
Yeah, it's. It's a dog. Okay.
Big Cat
Oh, come on.
Cody
Come on, dude. City of good neighbors.
Hank
I'm messing with you, Cody. You know that. You know. You know you like the joke.
Cody
Joke.
Brandon
All right, spin this.
Big Cat
Spin the wheel. Yeah,
Cody
yeah.
Big Cat
Just gotta go to a stag party. If it's me, I'm gonna cry.
Brandon
What if it's Gruden Cody? That'd be so sad.
Reed
That would be insane.
Cody
My dad loves Gruden.
Big Cat
All right, great.
Reed
Awesome.
Brandon
Are you cool with Sante?
Cody
Yeah, Sante's great.
Big Cat
Can you bring a Rubik's Cube?
Danny
For sure.
Cody
You could bring them all. We could do a Rubik's basket.
Big Cat
Okay.
Danny
Why would you want to?
Cody
I don't know.
Brandon
Sante would want to win it.
Cody
Yeah.
Frankie
Okay.
Brandon
You and so.
Danny
Yeah.
Cody
Yeah.
Reed
All right.
Big Cat
Should I text Josh Allen and invite him?
Cody
Hell, yeah. Love that guy.
Big Cat
Check down King.
Cody
Hey, despite. Whatever. Like, sports is sports. I love that guy.
Big Cat
Check down King.
KB
You get.
Cody
You get fired up about sports. You get pissed sometimes.
Danny
It was a week. So football.
Big Cat
MVP season.
Cody
49 yards at halftime.
Brandon
Football removed. What do you like about Josh Allen?
Cody
I think what he's done for the city of Buffalo is insane. Like, do you love him as a per.
Hank
It's a football player that you hate.
Cody
No, I love both sides. But, like, what you're able to do and build a culture in a city that never had, like, great success.
Danny
Went to four Super Bowls.
Cody
I mean, lost them all.
Danny
Yeah, but.
Cody
But he gave the city hope. He's more than just a quarterback to me.
Hank
Wow.
Brandon
Would you rather him stop being a philanthropist to the city or stop football?
Cody
I think it's hand in hand.
Danny
Well, yeah.
Brandon
It's not really how this works.
Hank
It's a hypothetical.
Cody
I mean, eventually he's going to retire. I think he's tied to the city right now.
Hank
That's just a hype.
Brandon
So what's the question I asked 30 seconds ago?
Ella
Yeah.
Cody
Zoned out.
Brandon
Would you rather him stop taking care of the city, stop supporting the city, or stop playing football?
Danny
The answer's five.
Big Cat
Really?
Cody
I think he's taking care of the city.
Danny
Stop taking care of the city?
KB
No.
Cody
Continue to take care of.
Big Cat
No.
Danny
If he wins the super bowl, that means he takes care of the city more than anybody.
Cody
Ever think that's what I'm saying. It's like hand in hand. It's like chicken and the egg.
Big Cat
Right. But you don't want him to stop playing football.
Danny
That's what's taking care of the city.
Cody
No, we're going to new. New c. New stadium this year. I'm Fire up.
Hank
Are you still excited about the wedding? You getting cold feet or anything?
Brandon
No.
Big Cat
I see this bed.
Danny
What was the name of their old stadium?
Big Cat
That's your bed.
Cody
I'm Mark.
Danny
Yeah.
Cody
That is my.
Danny
That's his hospital bed.
Big Cat
We got to get you a bigger bed.
Cody
Terrible picture.
Ella
Is that your own?
Danny
You took it.
Big Cat
I took the picture.
Frankie
Is that.
Hank
Is that a sheet over it? Where. Where's the picture? Where? It's in your kitchen.
Ella
Why was it in the kitchen?
Cody
I moved it. I was renovating. Renovating the space.
Brandon
Why do you always just have one pillow center?
Reed
One pillow.
Frankie
It looks like you're, like, on hospice.
Hank
Yeah.
Ella
How often are you curved up like that?
Cody
Oh, it's ergonomic.
Hank
I love you. Got the flowers in the corner. Just.
Brandon
Yeah.
Hank
Let's make the place look really nice.
Cody
Yeah, that. So that was my studio. Not much space in there, right?
Hank
In the kitchen?
Cody
Yeah. Working on it.
Hank
I love you, man.
KB
And where did you.
Hank
Bro, I love. I can't get enough of Cody. And I'm glad you're here.
Cody
Fired up. Final four coming up.
Big Cat
Are you going?
Frankie
Yeah.
Cody
Yeah. You want to hang out?
Brandon
No.
Cody
Okay.
Hank
Like Tiger woods at tgl. Last week you were happy and engaged.
Brandon
Did you see photos of him at tgl?
Big Cat
No.
Brandon
He did not look happy or engaged. He looked bad.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Brandon
Disengaged.
Big Cat
Oh, he had some pills in his pocket.
Brandon
Not great.
Big Cat
And vicious hiccups.
Danny
Oh.
Big Cat
You see that part of the report?
Brandon
No, I didn't know. That's like the most stereotypical drunk Move. Ever.
Big Cat
But he wasn't drunk.
Brandon
No.
Big Cat
What did Riggs say, by the way? Cody, you're dismissed.
Cody
All right, thanks.
Brandon
Great showing, Cody.
Big Cat
What did Rigs.
Danny
I saw Frankie, like, he said some things.
Brandon
Yeah. Frank, I guess, is dead to me.
Big Cat
Oh, yeah.
Brandon
We decide where to start. It's just an incredibly sad thing.
Big Cat
I hope that Tiger Wood's video didn't suck the way that race is just,
Brandon
like, doing as well as they can. I think Anthony Kim put it incredibly well where he's just said, basically, I
Big Cat
don't know what this guy's going through.
Brandon
I don't know what he's dealing with.
Big Cat
He said, it isn't my business.
Kyle
As someone who has and will always
Brandon
deal with my own issues like every other human. I pray the man who positively influenced
Big Cat
my life and millions of others overcomes what he is going through.
Kyle
Trust God. 1% better sober is dope.
Brandon
I thought that was a great message
Big Cat
in the whole thing.
Brandon
But where would you guys like to
Reed
start on the entire Tiger woods situation? Yeah, I mean, I think it's more like if you want to just kind of rattle off what you're thinking. I mean, that video kind of went crazy this weekend. I personally thought it sucked.
Brandon
I hated the video out of you,
Reed
and I hated the video out of Dan Rapaport. I think this whole situation sucks. I mean, making it into, like, like, an us. Like, being like Ruhaha about Tiger right now is, like, not the time to be doing that. I mean, it's brutal, man. This is, like, not good. I don't take this stuff lightly in terms of, like, putting other people in danger. And I mean, it's. At some point, like, Tiger woods is, like, doing, like, unbelievably wrong things. You know what I mean? Like, and. And at. If it was, like, for his own. His own demise, like, I. I get that. Like, things that he wants to do, his own vices, whatever it may be. But, like, now it's like, what are you. You're like.
Big Cat
You could kill people.
Reed
Like, every day you get behind the wheel, you're gonna.
Brandon
You're gonna kill somebody. Like, what.
Reed
What is he actually doing? I can't. I can't defend that just because I
Brandon
like the golfer he is.
Reed
You know what I mean? Yeah.
Kyle
100.
Big Cat
Like, oh, Riggs, go ahead.
Reed
I'm not on that wall. And, you know, I mean, like, that's not.
White Sox Dave
Yeah, me.
Reed
So, like, for that to be four plays brutal is my. That's kind of my take.
Hank
Oh, wow.
Big Cat
All right, listen. That was harsh.
Danny
What was the response to that.
Frankie
You got to put a video out defending Rigs.
Hank
Yeah.
Brandon
Yeah. I'm gonna have to word for word what Rick said.
Reed
Wow.
Brandon
Riggs did have like a five minute response after. After that.
Reed
Basically saying, like, it's an in. Like, you have to know the bar stool of it all.
Brandon
Like the.
Reed
The Dave versus foreplay of it all
Brandon
to kind of understand. Like, it kind of blew up outside of the barstool circle. But also like, none of the other
Reed
golf media accounts were reporting this happening when it happens.
Danny
Like, what?
KB
Good.
Hank
Good.
Brandon
And Grant Horvath and the other like golf creator accounts similarly were not instantly
Reed
reporting about this situation.
Brandon
That was what Riggs's stance was, that
Reed
they should also do that.
Brandon
And then when Dave puts it out
Reed
there now it's out there.
Brandon
Now it's a barstool thing.
Reed
And if you don't understand the Dave
Brandon
vs Riggs, Dave vs foreplay of it all, then maybe that context would not like the.
Reed
The Riggs laughing video.
Brandon
Then that's the context that.
Big Cat
Got it.
Reed
There's like a five minute reply that foreplay tweeted out of Riggs talking about it.
Big Cat
If you want to watch that.
Hank
Wow. Wow.
Brandon
I'm sure it's good.
Reed
Yeah.
KB
Yeah.
Hank
All I know is I just woke up in Japan. Another Tiger woods car. That's all I know.
Brandon
Every time I wake up in Japan, this happens.
Big Cat
Oh, man.
Hank
Just woke up in Japan. Another Tiger woods car accident.
Big Cat
By the way, I've decided that it's gonna hit wheel reset.
Brandon
Oh, okay.
Danny
Yeah.
Brandon
Spend it then.
Big Cat
Yes.
Reed
Spin it.
Danny
Now.
Brandon
Let's do it while Brandon's out.

Big Cat
That is the worst.
Danny

You might as well sit. Might as well sit now the wheel is wet.
White Sox Dave
It was.
Danny
What?
Big Cat
We'll just stay dry. Most of us will stay dry. Yeah, that's actually a really good point. The majority of us will stay dry. What if most.
KB
It's more of a dry wheel.
Danny
Yeah. Yeah.
Hank
It's only a problem for one of us.
Brandon
Yes, it's a wet problem for one of us.
Hank
For one of us. The rest of us. It's not a problem at all.
Brandon
Yeah.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Cody
I don't.
Reed
It just.
Brandon
Well, just depends because, like, what if.
Danny
How would it be a problem for anybody else?
Brandon
Like, what if I, you know, I
White Sox Dave
get wet and then actually get you wet?
Brandon
That's right.
Danny
Like, how would that happen?
White Sox Dave
Shakes off, like hallway, you know, walking
Brandon
past each other is.
Danny
You gonna hug me?
Reed
No.
Brandon
If you initiate embrace, yeah, sure.
Danny
But I'm not gonna initiate embrace if you're wet.
Frankie
You're wearing a windbreaker.
Brandon

Danny
Have we ever hugged?
Reed
No.
Frankie
Probably not.

How many men do you think one wet man could get wet? Oh, by a telephone game of hugs.

Me wet?
Big Cat
Yep.
Brandon
Then
Big Cat
not too much cooking up.
Brandon
Nothing on the Stove right now, at the moment.
Big Cat
That's all right.
Brandon
What's changed since. When you first moved to Chicago in your life, are you still having McDonald's? Yeah, I've been eating the best. Okay. I'll be honest with you. So that's remained the same.
Big Cat
I've.
White Sox Dave
I haven't been eating the McDonald's as much, but I had just carbs. A lot of carbs.
Big Cat
Mincy, you got tickets?
Frankie
It's two. It's still being worked on, so I was told. My buddy thinks they have an extra for either Friday or Saturday.
Big Cat
Okay.
Frankie
But he wouldn't say that if it wasn't real.
Big Cat
All right, Just come. Come back tomorrow and update us.
Frankie
Okay?
Danny
All right. All right.
Frankie
And the thing I was texting you about my family tickets. I'm gonna ask for those for next year. To get us.
Danny
Okay.
Frankie
To get us. I can probably get that. I just have to ask, like. My great uncle was the golf pro at Augusta country club in the 1940s. Not Augusta national, the other one.
Big Cat
He was racist. Racist.
Frankie
I don't know about that. But. But when the Master.
Brandon
Let's name it the Master.
Frankie
When the Masters was founded, my family. We've had four tickets in our family the whole time.
Danny
Oh.
Frankie
But it's like a big family, and I've only got them twice. I went no. 1, and I went no. 4 when Mickelson finally won.
Big Cat
Nice.
Danny
Yeah.
Frankie
The best spot to sit. My cousin taught me this. You bring tailgate?
Danny
Told me this last year.
Frankie
Yeah. You bring tailgate chairs. And when the gates open, you can't run, but you walk briskly. You set your tailgate chairs down on the 12th tee box because you're right on Amen corner. You can see the 11th green, the 12th tee box, the 12th green, and the 13th tee off. And there's chicken sandwiches and concessions right there. That's led with that. That's the dream spot.
Hank
All right.
Big Cat
Love it.
Brandon
How the tootsies feel.
Danny
That's a different spot than you told me last year, by the way.
Frankie
I don't think so.
Danny
You told me last year. The. Under the hill at number six.
Frankie
That's cool, too, where they bomb it over you. Because I remember I was, like, laying out on there, taking a nap. But they corner spot, you get to see all three.
Danny
Okay.
Frankie
That's the. That's because that's the famous spot.
Danny
Nice.
Frankie
What tootsies? What are you talking about?
Mincy
Your feet.
Frankie
Oh, they're great, man. Yeah, I just. God bless that poor woman, but.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Danny
Why don't you take a picture of her and put her on the Internet.
Frankie
I just thought it was funny because I don't know. God, you know? I know.
Big Cat
Come in here.
Frankie
All right. Yeah, but we got to run these miles.
Brandon
Yeah, you're right. You got to get them right.
Frankie
Yeah.
Hank
I did the.
Frankie
I can't quite keep up with damn, but I did the 24 hour fast.
Brandon
Nice.
Frankie
Feeling good.
Big Cat
Oh, how's the response been to your clip?
KB
Dude, everyone's so mad.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Hank
Why?
Brandon
We defended you.
Ella
I think that if someone else said it.
Big Cat
Wait, what was the gen. What was the actual take?
KB
I'm just saying that no one goes out anymore.
Ella
In general. Like, I. There's people that don't even go out on weekends anymore. But adults, like, parents will be like, that's crazy.
KB
We used to go out on weeknights. Like, we didn't care if we showed up to work hungover.
Ella
And I think if someone else said it that had a real job, people would agree.
KB
You're right. But, like, regardless of job, people would go out on the weekdays, especially in, like, New York.
Ella
I just feel like everyone's soft now.
Big Cat
Oh, Rick. Yeah. Sit down. Yeah. I always thought, like, when I graduated college, it was like, the first year, we'd still go out sometimes. Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Then the next year was, like, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Then the next year was, like, Friday, Saturday. And then it slowly takes off.
Ella
It's just like, no one even socializes. You don't need to go get blacked
KB
out and buy tables, right?
Big Cat
Rick, why don't you go out anymore?
Danny
I go out.
Big Cat
Do you go out on the weeknights?
Frankie
No, not really.
Big Cat
So there you go. You're part of the problem.
Ella
It's fine.
Danny
Gotta grow up at some age.
Big Cat
How old are you, Ella?
KB
24.
Big Cat
Okay.
Danny
You still got a couple years.
Big Cat
Yeah.
KB
Yeah.
Danny
How old are you?
Frankie
26.

You're not that much. That was crazy. You just big broed her.
Brandon
Oh, you're one of the lucky ones.
Big Cat
A couple years.
Frankie
Yeah, I remember those days fondly.
Big Cat
Okay.
Danny
All right.
Big Cat
Well, that was it. Yeah. We hit the wet wheel. So we were just trying to get as many people on the show as possible.
Mincy
I knew Titus was with me.
Ella
Yeah, like, they're all wearing black today. Look, that's him. Him, her.
Big Cat
What have you been eating? What Was your last McDonald's order last night?
Brandon
I had a chicken thighs and mashed potatoes, I think. Chicken thighs. Best piece of chicken. They say a little bit more fat,
White Sox Dave
but you gotta live a little.
Big Cat
How much ice cream?
Brandon
Ice cream yesterday? None.
Ella
Are you still doing the tubs? Of it or are you just doing.
Big Cat
Here, I'll do that.
Brandon
This did kind of change it a
Reed
little bit, but I think the soft
Big Cat
serve and the pint ice cream is like a different experience.
Ella
Very different, yes.
Big Cat
How much ice cream do we end up leaving in the Airbnb in Scottsdale? So much.
Brandon
Too much ice cream. Way too much ice cream.
Big Cat
That was on me.
Brandon
Now I take full responsibility for that. Should have been there.
Big Cat
Yeah, no, I take full responsibility.
Brandon
The math I did on there was for the next. Like, I thought it was. We needed it for, like.
White Sox Dave
Like the next day following as well.
Brandon
And then there was no way to know which flavor you guys were going to eat, so I thought maybe it made sense to get the same amount of each flavor.
Big Cat
Yeah. What's up, Connor? How we doing? Good. You gotta stop hanging out with Nikki Smokes.
Danny
Okay.
Brandon
Rub it off on you a little bit.
Cody
Last night I thought that I fixed it.
Big Cat
What'd you fix?
Danny
How?
Big Cat
I said it's different here. I thought that I fixed it last night. Oh, what'd you say?
Brandon
I took a video of, like, beautiful video.
Big Cat
The whole crowd of Wrigley, and I said it's different. That's. Yeah. The bar, though, was like every bar. Opening day.
Brandon
Yeah, I know, but it was kind of like. Let me defend myself real quick. Do you remember a couple years ago how the Cub slogan was, it's different here?
Big Cat
Yeah, that's true. So that's what I was kind of going for. And then it just got it popped off. Yeah. Yeah. All right, well, we hit wet, so that's why we had you sit down. So I'm gonna get one now? No, we're gonna. We're gonna see.
KB
Probably not.

For the most part, you're attracting guys who want to bring that out of you and bring that out of them themselves. So you're kind of stuck in a situation where you have to go hard.
Kyle
But I've also been saying no for the first time.
KB
Really?
Kyle
Like, if a guy comes over to me and like wants to do the 20 to my 100, I'm just like, I can't keep doing it.
Brandon
What if he's like, please, man.
Kyle
Well, no, my thing is, I say drink one. If you're really fast, we'll do it. But I can't do it just for the sake of Them getting a video and then they finish their beer in like 30 seconds.
Brandon
Right.
Kyle
Because then I'm gonna have to do it another 15 times.
KB
Yeah, yeah.
Brandon
Like American Idol has them pre sing for different judges right. Before they go to the main ones.
Big Cat
Right.
Brandon
So you need to have somebody drink off against like Nicky smokes and if they beat him then maybe it can go against you.
Kyle
Yeah, for sure. There has to be something like that.
Reed
Yeah.
Ella
But I think that's good. Healthy boundaries.
Kyle
Healthy boundaries. Yeah.

Have you been getting out of the city at all?
Kyle
I went up to Milwaukee for opening

Co parenting kind of scares you, though. No.

From breathtaking buzzer beaters to jaw dropping upsets, tournament season is full of ups and downs. But don't let unexpected appliance and home system breakdowns add to the emotional rollercoaster.

AHS steps in like the ultimate bench player for covered home system and appliance issues. Things like your ac, plumbing, electrical, and refrigerator are bound to break down without a home warranty. You'd have to go one on one with those expensive repairs. Luckily, you can team up with American Home Shield for a home warranty that can help protect even your oldest appliances and home systems. AHS will repair the covered item, and if they can't repair it, they'll replace it. Homeowners insurance is a good start, but it's not the whole game plan.

Barstool Sports | March 31, 2026
This episode of The Yak centers around the spontaneous, freewheeling camaraderie among the Barstool Yak crew—Big Cat, KBNoSwag (Kyle), Brandon Walker, Rone, Lil Sas, Kate, Steven Cheah, and recurring guest panel—to discuss life’s mundane absurdities, Barstool lore, and community events. The real star of this episode, however, is REED—an enigmatic, dry-witted Barstool staffer who’s catapulted into internal “Guest of the Year” contention for his accidental comedic presence. The group delves into personal stories, weather-related ignorance, unconventional social rites, the art of approaching women, and Reed’s accidental "audition" under the Yak spotlight.
As always, the Yak’s trademark is its blend of relentless teasing, digression, and endearing sincerity, with group dynamics oscillating wildly between chaos and earnest support. The crew’s open mockery is balanced by glimmers of mentorship, especially directed toward new or weirdly compelling colleagues like Reed. The show revels in meta-awareness, with jokes about the act of podcasting itself and the surreal experience of being both performer and observer.
This episode is a sprawling, hilariously digressive session that spotlights the humor and heart at the core of The Yak’s appeal. Reed’s offbeat, spaced-out affect turns him from a background staffer into a cult favorite, as the rest of the crew mines his introspective deadpan for comedy and insight. Weather, nostalgia, bizarre traditions, and the small victories of adult life all comprise the narrative tissue, weaving the show’s signature: absurd, unpretentious, and deeply human.
Summary prepared by The Yak Recap Bot – perfect for those who crave every hilarious, awkward detail (minus the ads).
