Each game unfolds under alternating day and night phases with roles like the cool chick, the shy guy, the gambler, El presidente, the mentalist, the planner, the funny guy, and more. Every round is unpredictable, chaotic and ridiculously fun. Who's the bad guy? Is great for parties, pre games, family gatherings or groups who just love deception based games.

Big Cat
Oh, no.
Kyle

Kyle
I just do it every now and then. Just like I crave the contact every now.
Big Cat
And then I like to tackle human body.
Kyle
Yeah, I just. I just, like. Like tussling with Kyle every now and then.
Kate
When I looked over, your whole butt was out, and Kyle was way up in the air.
Kyle
My butt was out.
Nick
If matches were, like, three seconds long,
Big Cat
he'd be the best.
Kyle
Pretty good. I get tired immediately.
Brandon
A state qualifier.
Kyle
I get tired immediately.
Ben Mintz
Who?
Big Cat
He was holding Kyle up.

Look at them.
Kyle
Oh, that's pretty good.
Big Cat
Yeah, they're trying to get a par.
Danny
The adjustment in technique.

Collapse after, like, two holes.
Kyle
Yes. Even if I'm the. The swinger.
Jay
Yeah.
Donnie
Yeah.
Nick
Those videos, like, you can, like, lie about what you accomplished on the course.
Big Cat
What do you mean?
Nick
Not that one particular. Because that's funny. But, like, when people do, like, hey, play around with me, you can just, like, keep doing takes, right?
Big Cat
I. I think they're honest, but, yeah, you could. You could. Hypothetically, why do you guys want to go take a shot as a tandem?
Kyle
Not really. No.
Big Cat
Please?
Kyle
No.
Big Cat
Please, for us.
Kate
Please.
Kyle
Kyle, are you gonna be the swinger?

Mark
Please?
Kyle
No. Do office wheel or something.
Big Cat
No, you guys. You guys are the perfect pairing.
Kyle
So anyway, my ladies get into next year.
Nick
Yes.
Mark
Deutsche Spider might be the perfect.
Kyle
Okay.
Mark
Spider might be the first.
Big Cat
Where are they? Deutsche Spider.
Mark
I'd like to see Deutsche Deutsch.
Kyle
I think left.
Big Cat
Oh, Meek Phil's sitting there. He's PCA hater on Twitter.

Yeah, that's what I found out.
Kyle
That's his actual. He has no.
Big Cat
We. There's a There's a rumor that he's. He runs the account pca.
Kyle
Why is he sitting like that?
Mark
Oh, there's an account called pca.
Big Cat
It's actually very funny because they run out of things to hate.
Mark
Yeah, they're just nitpicking.
Big Cat
So they'll be like. He'll like, go four for five and be like, what a bomb. He struck out. So, yeah, there he is. That's Meek Phil.
Kyle
Oh, he's not affiliated with Pico Armstrong.
Mark
Yeah, yeah.
Big Cat
No, no.
Kyle
Why talk. Stay following. That account's funny.
Big Cat
Chase back.
Stephen
Sorry. We had a taping that ran late.
Big Cat
What would you guys do?
Stephen
Brain clash. Me versus Dave and debates.
Big Cat
Oh, boy.
Kyle
How'd that go?
Stephen
We had a question that it was pick the ideal honeymoon destination. He got the one before, so he got to pick pass or take it or defer. He chose to defer. I chose Hawaii. I could give you guys 10 minutes to pick what? To guess what his was. You won't get it. His honeymoon destination was maybe the worst answer I've ever heard.
Kyle
Okay, so we gotta go. Something he would say.
Nick
Go. Do you want. Do you want us to guess? Are we allowed to spoil it?
Stephen
Yeah, yeah. It's. It's a.
Nick
It's a topic you want to give.
Stephen
The debate is really the, like, Geneva.
Nick
Give us hot or cold responses. Like, Geneva cold.
Kate
A depressing World War II battlefield.
Brandon
Pretty hot, yeah.
Kyle
Really? Normandy, if anybody's going to know.
Big Cat
Normandy,
Jay
hot.
Stephen
Hot.
Nick
Normandy's hot, yeah.
Big Cat
Really?
Stephen
Yes.
Big Cat
Dunkirk.
Stephen
Still hot.
Big Cat
Battle the Bulge.
Kate
Hiroshima.
Stephen
He picked Munich.
Mark
Oh.
Jay
Oh, Why?
Big Cat
I guess you got to tune in.
Stephen
Yeah. And he, like, intensely argued it for several minutes and was very insistent. He was correct.
Nick
Munich is a modern city. Like, is it fun?
Big Cat
It might be.
Stephen
I don't. Nick was there the whole time.
Big Cat
What is Munich got going on?
Nick
Of all of Europe, you're going beer city.
Brandon
It's the best honeymoon.
Nick
I mean, it.
Big Cat
Is Munich on the water?
Brandon
No, but it's centrally located, was his argument, which is exactly what you want. And he was like, there's plenty of romantic things to do, like zip lining.
Big Cat
So that'd be like a German picking. Like Iowa.
Brandon
Yeah, probably.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Whitney
Des Moines.
Brandon
Oh, Dave was awesome.
Mark
Has he been to Munich?
Brandon
Yes.
Big Cat
Oh, so he loves Munich going wherever he's been. Yeah, that makes sense.
Mark
You might be right.
Big Cat
Why is a good pick, Jay, where is.
Nick
Where is Oktoberfest?
Brandon
That's in Munich. But is that a honeymoon?
Nick
No.
Big Cat
What do you.
Mark
What are the goals of the honeymoon?
Brandon
Relax, chill.
Nick
Do your own thing.
Kyle
Chill and chill.
Nick
Coexist tolerate beach and beach.
Mark
You think beach is essential.
Big Cat
I think beaches.
Brandon
I think you want to fall deeper in love too. And I don't. I think ziplining isn't that.
Big Cat
No. But I don't think you. It's not like. Like go to a city like you don't. You're not like honeymoon in Paris. You like south of France.
Mark
I literally honeymoon in Paris.
Brandon
Yeah, but you also did the out I went to.
Big Cat
Well, there goes your marriage.
Danny
Yeah.
Big Cat
So sorry to tell you we at
Nick
least once that I remember Paris for a honeymoon. Oh, sweetie. It's GE. Giving porn.
Donnie
Yeah.
Mark
I think it's got to be a
Big Cat
beach top destination beach has got to be. Think you get. Yeah, but.
Kyle
Yeah.
Mark
I don't know.
Kyle
I feel like Greece.
Stephen
I. I've heard a lot of people go to Greece.
Jay
Yeah.
Big Cat
But Mikey Bets told us that you. Dude, when you. You. You have to throw it out like I. You can't do the honeymoon with that.
Danny
No.
Brandon
You can't. When your shits in the garden.
Mark
Yeah.
Big Cat
You can't have a. A, you know, trash in your bathroom on. In your honeymoon suite.
Nick
That's it. That's across the board for any occasion.
Brandon
Yeah, I guess you're right.
Kate
And air conditioning. There's not a lot of air conditioning.
Mark
Hawaii is sneaky. Not beach though. You've been.
Big Cat
Okay, I've been there is beach. There's.
Donnie
There.
Big Cat
There's a copy.
Danny
Please.
Nick
You could take me to a direction to agree with.
Big Cat
You could actually argue it's as an island. It's all beach.
Mark
I'm going in a couple weeks. And they say do not swim. Do not go to the beach. Go to the pool.
Jay
What?
Nick
Really?
Mark
Why?
Jay
Yeah.
Mark
A lot of places where.
Big Cat
Oh, it's not in the surface.
Brandon
There is a beach, but it's not.
Mark
It's not like a beach.
Brandon
Yeah.
Mark
It's like. I think it's like rocky cliffs. It's like.
Big Cat
No.
Mark
Oh.
Nick
It depends on where you go because Oahu had like.
Mark
That's what I'm saying.
Nick
Some of them best speeches for an island.
Mark
For an island state that. Yeah.
Big Cat
I think they're afraid you're gonna get beat up by surfers.
Mark
That's what it is.
Kyle
I think they're. I think you do.
Big Cat
They're. They took one look at you.
Mark
I'm saying look into it. Sneak.
Big Cat
You're a white guy.
Nick
What aisle are you we're going to?
Mark
Kauai.
Nick
Oh, that's more of.
Mark
Yeah.
Nick
Yeah.
Mark
And even Maui. Like you. You stay at some places. It's like very rocky and you got to like walk to the real.
Big Cat
Oh, I did beaches.
Kyle
Maui.
Kate
That's kind of how Cancun. When I went there, I was surprised. It was. All the resorts are just man made beaches with cement beaches with sand dumped on top of the like.
Big Cat
Sounds like Chicago.
Kate
Yeah. Nice cement beach.
Big Cat
I'm trying to get Kyle or Kyle and Brandon to tandem golf and they won't.
Whitney
Why not?
Big Cat
I don't know. Brandon's scared. Kyle's equally scared.
Nick
Time. Not a good time.
Stephen
Yeah.
Brandon
Would either of you have a good time?
Kyle
I've already lifted Kyle today.
Big Cat
This is tandem golf by the.
Brandon
Oh, I didn't know what that was.
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. They won't do it.
Mincy
Oh, come on.
Mark
I will.
Nick
I'm not in the mood right now.
Big Cat
He's not in the mood. It's a bad Monday activity.
Brandon
Horrible.
Nick
Monday. It was.
Big Cat
It's a Friday.
Mark
Yeah.
Jay
Yeah.
Brandon
That's fair.
Mark
That's fair.
Nick
Friday.
Big Cat
So I. I sprung it on him on a Monday morning.
Danny
Yeah.
Big Cat
It's a mistake.
Brandon
Wait, wait four days.
Nick
Yeah.
Mark
Yeah.
Kyle
I'll tandem golf on Friday.
Brandon
You're out, aren't you?
Kyle
No, not Friday.
Nick
No, let's do it Friday.
Kyle
We'll tandem golf Friday. We could could face a couple of opponents.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Kyle
Yeah.
Mincy
You're holding one another. Or do you get to choose?
Kyle
We'll figure it out.
Big Cat
Brandon, I think still wants to be held.
Kyle
No, I'll hold. I'll hold.
Brandon
Versus like Deutsche and Spider and Kate and White Sox.
Kyle
Dave, why is deutsche and Spider the.
Big Cat
Well, they have the.
Brandon
They do the tall man. He's lifting all the time.
Whitney
Yeah.
Danny
It's cheap.
Brandon
Yeah. What if you're way better at golfing that way?
Big Cat
That would be awesome.
Kyle
All the time.
Big Cat
You guys are like border. You're like a scratch golfer.
Nick
I feel like it comes down to the skill of the person swinging.
Big Cat
Well, no, because Brandon's kind of moving his body for you.
Nick
Okay.
Big Cat
Would that be legal in the pga?
Kyle
Almost certainly not.
Brandon
The caddy can't lift the golfer.
Kyle
I don't think so. I don't think there's touching allowed.
Big Cat
What if you guys agreed to split the prize money?
Nick
Yeah.
Big Cat
You'd be a lot of it.
Kyle
Me and Kyle will work on it. We have four days to come up with our best tandem golf plan.
Brandon
I can't wait for Friday.
Big Cat
Wasn't there a.
Stephen
A golfer in the early 2000s that had some type of disability where he.
Eddie
Yes.
Stephen
Had to cart Casey Martin. Yes.
Jay
Okay.
Kyle
But that was him having a bad leg and he drove on a car. It has nothing to do with being A tandem golfer.
Stephen
Could he, like.
Mark
Could he.
Stephen
Could he drive his cart on the, like, putting green or.
Big Cat
No, that doesn't. They barely have a bad leg. Doesn't mean you can just break all the rules.
Kyle
He had to go, like, the Supreme Court to get to ride his cart.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Stephen
So he could walk.
Danny
Walk.
Big Cat
He had, like, blood clots or something.
Kyle
He had blood clots. And the longer he stood on it, the worse it got. He couldn't stand on it very long.
Big Cat
Yeah. Sounds like he didn't want it.
Brandon
So if you guys had a disability, if it was anxiety, like Pedro Pascal, I have to touch Kyle, then you could do it.
Big Cat
Your. Your dick has to be in Kyle's butt.
Brandon
It's the only way my anxiety seeds is penetrating.
Big Cat
Kyle has an emotional support butt.
Kyle
So you. We've gone from just doing tandem golf to now my penis needs Kyle on it at all.
Kate
Yeah.
Big Cat
We'll put Kyle in the little vest. Yeah, yeah.
Brandon
Emotional support hole
Big Cat
sitting on your lap on the plane.
Kyle
You have to let us on the plane.
Brandon
Do not touch. That's Brandon's emotional support ass.
Big Cat
Pet my emotional support hole. A little kid comes up to pet, slap Kyle in the ass.
Brandon
You're like, no, no, this is not.
Big Cat
Do not feed this hole either. No treats.
Nick
I think you'd like to, man.
Brandon
Definitely.
Nick
I would like to.
Danny
Oh, 100.
Big Cat
Braden would like to.
Kyle
You.
Big Cat
He would. He'd have such a good time.
Nick
Yeah.
Brandon
When you walked. Never mind. When you walked out in the towel and shampooed, it was like. Yeah, pretty fucking hot.
Big Cat
It was erotic.
Nick
It defied all, like, that didn't shed light on the inside of my ass, which would be the primary vessel that he'd be.
Brandon
Right.
Big Cat
Yeah. But everything else, the window dressing.
Brandon
But when it comes to your physical problem areas, it is your asshole that's your, like, weakest part.
Big Cat
That's true.
Nick
Salisbury steak, frozen side like that. The Banquet cinnamon apple dessert. That's like.
Mincy
That's always way hotter.
Nick
Cinnamon phlegm.
Mark
It's.
Nick
That's the.
Brandon
That's the worst side dessert in a micro microwave dinner.
Nick
History of culinary arts. Specifically the Salisbury steak one. Yeah.
Mark
Oh,
Big Cat
that.
Nick
That was. So the Salisbury steak was actually good.
Brandon
Yeah. That was a good part of the TV dinner. But the dessert was never good.
Mincy
They would have the brownie, too. Sometimes that was just stuck to the
Danny
bottom of the tray.
Nick
Oh, did you guys eat Lean Pockets?
Kyle
Oh, yeah.
Nick
Ham and cheddar Hot Pockets.
Big Cat
Lean Pockets.
Nick
Hot Pockets are fun. Fine.
Big Cat
Yeah. That is true. Hot Pockets were, like, legitimately good.
Nick
Really good.
Big Cat
Lean Pockets are, like, Diet. The good thing is, like, broccoli and ch.
Brandon
But was it even good? Hot Pockets, like, no. Good for you.
Big Cat
Oh, no, no, no pockets.
Brandon
There's no way.
Big Cat
No, no. They just did, like, the classic move where they cut the calories in half but added, like a shitload of chemicals.
Kyle
They just put broccoli in it. That's all they did.
Brandon
It might have just been broccoli.
Mark
Took out a little bit of cheese. Put broccoli. There's still a ton of cheese, though.
Big Cat
But yeah, dude, Hot Pockets were awesome when it first came out.
Kyle
I like to overcook them.
Mark
Like.
Big Cat
Holy. Yeah.
Danny
Yeah.
Jay
That was toxic.
Mark
Yes.
Big Cat
And it's. There's so much some comedians should do something about, like, how hot they were.
Brandon
They say it.
Big Cat
Yeah, hot.
Brandon
Say it in a funny voice, but don't swear. Hell no.
Kate
They should have, like, five kids when
Stephen
you guys are eating dinner nowadays, are you. Is the television on and are you watching it or is it like a concentrated table conversation type deal?
Kate
I do.
Brandon
I do Jeopardy. At dinner.
Kyle
We. We hover. I mean, we float.
Nick
You play like live put.
Brandon
Tilt the TV and just do Jeopardy.
Nick
Jeopardy's awesome to have on.
Brandon
It's probably not.
Big Cat
So you're like spitting food everywhere trying to answer questions.
Brandon
Yeah, I'm spitting food everywhere.
Nick
Yeah.
Big Cat
Like, like, if place is a mess if you take a bite and you know an answer. Are you just talking with your mouth full?
Brandon
Yes.
Big Cat
Gross.
Brandon
And we sit at the same side of the table.
Donnie
What?
Kyle
She cleans your chin.
Brandon
Yeah.
Kyle
You answer a question.
Kate
We have a kitchen table like that all four of us could sit at, but instead we all sit at our counter in a straight line, not looking at each other.
Big Cat
Oh, yeah, that's same. Same here. Well, the kitchen table becomes a shelf
Kate
for all our crap. Just sits on it.
Kyle
God knows what table dinners have become special for us. We don't do it that often. She'll make the food, I'll grab it. I'll go down to the basement or I'll go out on the porch and then Tommy will go where he wants to go and stuff like that. We still have some. Okay.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Kyle
Not every day.
Big Cat
I also have a table that's just for Thanksgiving. It's just.
Brandon
Oh, I had one of those growing up.
Big Cat
Yeah, like the room that you just never go a lot of. Why is this room?
Nick
Doesn't.
Big Cat
Should make a golf simulator in there. Yeah, would be better.
Stephen
What?
Kyle
Pretty good idea.
Big Cat
Just walk in my front door.
Kyle
There's a golf simulator right next to the first room. Easier to explain in a Thanksgiving Table that you don't use.
Big Cat
Yeah, true, true. Wait, so Stephen, do you watch tv?
Stephen
Sometimes. We're at the table most of the time. Sometimes we'll have the Cubs game on. If it's close, then we'll go kind of on the couch and watch that wall. It depends what I think. It depends what the meal is more than the, the like score game or whatever.
Nick
How did that become so popular?
Kyle
What?
Nick
Just a perfect dining room that doesn't get touched, that just isn't used.
Brandon
I don't know.
Nick
Off limits.
Brandon
The real estate. It's the first room of the house. You see it, you walk in and it's just an untouched room. Everybody had one.
Kate
Are people still putting like fine china on their wedding registries? Cuz I would. I've.
Nick
No, I don't think.
Kate
Don't think I would ever use it ever. I don't want to clean that.
Big Cat
But it is so stupid, Kyle. It's like a. Just a. I guess maybe it's just the shape of a house. Like what are you going to do with that room?
Mark
Yeah, something's got to go there.
Eddie
Like if she.
Big Cat
Like if. If the house is a rectangle, it's like there's going to be a room that just sits there, that just doesn't.
Nick
Yeah, could be people use privilege.
Mark
I don't know. Maybe people do. Maybe they.
Mincy
But your parents wouldn't even let you use it. Like don't go at room.
Donnie
No. Oh yeah.
Big Cat
Absolutely not.
Brandon
Do you have one, Brandon?
Kyle
No, I don't. I. I don't.
Big Cat
But you have a sitting room that you don't use.
Kyle
I have a sitting room that we use when company comes over. So we don't use it very much.
Danny
Right.
Brandon
Is that just a room without a tv?
Kyle
Yeah, yeah. We have a, we have a sitting room. It's right when you walk in.
Big Cat
I could tell right away I was like, this is not sad.
Kyle
The very front room.
Eddie
Yeah.
Kyle
Yeah.
Mincy
That's kind of intense. Like, do you bring your kids there when they're in trouble or something?
Kyle
No, I sit there a lot. You sit, stare at the wall, read. What I'm about to say is the fattest thing I've ever said.
Big Cat
Oh, that's saying something. Because you've said a lot of fat things.
Mark
Fries at home, fry.
Big Cat
Fries at home. Guy makes his own fries at home.
Mark
This is coming from a guy who
Big Cat
makes fries at home.
Mark
So you know, we're in for.
Big Cat
I forgot about fries at home. Dude fucking makes dude.
Kyle
Guys, the Internet has my back on this.
Big Cat
Dude is. Dude is treating his house like a McDonald's.
Kyle
Fries at home are delicious. Homemade fries. Just because y' all trust me, try it.
Big Cat
The fastest thing I'm coming from the.
Mark
No one said they're not delicious. We said they're very.
Brandon
The man. That they're not bad eyes at home.
Kyle
They're not fat.
Brandon
They're the fattest thing.
Kyle
It's a normal thing to do. People do it. You guys are insulated or you're, You're.
Brandon
You want to leave the room right now. You want to leave the room so bad right now.
Kyle
I'm not leaving the room. The fattest thing I was going to say is my sitting room is in the middle. The middle. I was on the middle floor. My bedroom is on the top floor.
Brandon
It's the first floor.
Big Cat
You could call it middle floor works too.
Kyle
The middle floor. I have three floors, okay. Top floor, the basement, and the middle floor.
Big Cat
Wait, it's out of order. The.
Brandon
Yeah, we got to keep him in the room. Let's.
Big Cat
Okay.
Jay
All right, continue.
Brandon
My.
Big Cat
But he did all three different things, like, top, middle, bottom, middle, bottom, second, first.
Kyle
Top floor, middle basement. Okay? So I, I, I spend my. My, My bedroom and my top floor, Okay. I spend most of my time in the basement. And the middle floor is the middle
Big Cat
where the food gets made.
Kyle
It's 15 steps from the middle floor up. It's 15 steps from the floor down. Oh, no. So when I'm walking, if I'm in the basement. Oh, no, I'm in the basement. I'm like, I gotta go upstairs. I will stop in the sitting room and break up the two stair flights.
Big Cat
So the first floor at your house is like base camp at Everest where you have to get acclimated to the.
Kyle
The middle floor.
Brandon
Yeah, it's almost like coming up from scuba diving. So you don't get the bed.
Big Cat
Like, all right, we gotta.
Donnie
Here.
Danny
Yeah.
Big Cat
You show up to Nepal, then you got to spend a week at base camp, then you can go to the top.
Kyle
I'll stage there. And if I'm expecting somebody to come over or the kids are in and out, I'm like, I'll just sit there and let them come by me. I like to sit in my sitting room. It's a sitting room. Yeah.
Brandon
I like that you're aware. I like that you're aware.
Kyle
I sit in my sitting room. How about that?
Nick
How long is the break to sit?
Kyle
10 minutes. Because I also.
Big Cat
That's a long. Jesus Christ, dude. Jesus Christ.
Brandon
So when it takes you, Nick, how long does it take you from basement
Kyle
to Bed if I go straight through.
Big Cat
No, no, we don't want to kill you.
Brandon
That's a young man's game.
Kyle
Also, I have my bookshelf, my bookcase, my very ornate stock bookcase right by the sitting room. So I'll walk up, I'll grab a book, I'll sit down, read something.
Mincy
Okay, but you're not going there to read. You're going there to rest.
Kyle
But I do read while I'm there.
Kate
But the book is like a beard hiding what you're really doing. It's because it's shameful.
Big Cat
The book is just pictures of French.
Mark
Are you, like, actually puffing? Are you.
Kyle
Everybody.
Brandon
Everybody's coming at you.
Kyle
Yeah.
Brandon
This is coming at curiosity. Not. This is almost like. Like watching, like, Ripley's Believe it or Not.
Kyle
Okay.
Big Cat
We're just pulling his strings. Yeah.
Brandon
This is not. It's not coming from a place of.
Mark
You did say it's the fattest thing.
Ben Mintz
Scorn.
Kyle
And now we're just basically saying that's fatter than homemade fries.
Big Cat
Are there any French fry picture books?
Nick
I have a good.
Big Cat
Oh, no, wait.
Kyle
You have a French fry. I have a lot of. I have a lot of cookbooks.
Big Cat
Are you reading cookbooks in your resting spot?
Kyle
How are you going to get ideas of what to cook if you don't read a cookbook from time to time?
Big Cat
Hey, so you're. You're walking up 15 flights of stairs.
Kyle
No, 15 stairs.
Big Cat
15 stairs.
Kyle
Sorry.
Big Cat
15 stairs to sit and look at pictures of food so you get the energy to go all the way up.
Kyle
Did you go on that boat?
Mincy
Motivation.
Nick
What about this? Like a book of menus? Like a scrapbook of menus. That would be cool.
Big Cat
Why hasn't anyone done that?
Mark
Good book.
Kyle
It's a good book.
Nick
A casual read.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Kyle
Menus from across the country are just
Nick
also menus in time, different iterations.
Kyle
The menus of New York, the menus of amazing.
Big Cat
But also menus in time. Like being. Oh, 1930. A hamburger cost 5 cents.
Nick
I'm sure it exists.
Kyle
Okay. Wow.
Big Cat
We should do that.
Kyle
I would buy the menus.
Big Cat
I would pay through that.
Nick
Menus. No, I think we can do this.
Big Cat
Why don't we do that?
Kyle
Because we're not. We don't write books. Yeah, we do. We all. And you.
Big Cat
I have one coming out.
Mark
That's right. You do.
Brandon
We had a yak book.
Mark
Yeah, we wrote a. Y' all wrote an erotic novel.
Brandon
Menu design.
Donnie
No, no, no.
Big Cat
Not design.
Jay
No, no, no.
Big Cat
We don't care about the design.
Kyle
We care about the.
Brandon
Let's not go crazy.
Kate
Like, I would read, like, an Applebees over the years that I'm saying every decade.
Kyle
Like the first Applebees menu. I'll check that out.
Brandon
Oh, how one restaurant's menu progressed would
Big Cat
be cool to do. A lot of options.
Kyle
These are good menus.
Mark
Yeah.
Big Cat
And then we do, like, a section for the menus that have calories on it.
Kyle
Now we're just playing the greatest hits.
Big Cat
No, we're not.
Kyle
That's absolutely a thing.
Big Cat
Yeah, no, that's why we have a section for it. Brandon, what did I say?
Kyle
It's a law that if you have over 20 locations, you gotta have your calories on there.
Big Cat
Mark of a fine restaurant.
Kyle
Ruth's Chris. I've heard of it. Pretty good.
Brandon
You have to have calories if you have more than 20 locations.
Kyle
That's right. And a pond becomes a Lake at 30 acres.
Mark
How about that?
Big Cat
Oh, okay.
Brandon
How many acres is yours, Dan?
Kyle
I have a story from this weekend. Oh, I'm not sure I want to tell.
Big Cat
Oh, do tell.
Kyle
Can I borrow one member of the yak? Go tell it to him.
Eddie
Yes.
Kyle
See if it's worth telling.
Big Cat
Spin the wheel.
Kyle
Because I'm nervous to tell it.
Big Cat
Okay. Spin the wheel.
Mark
Love it.
Kyle
But it's the maddest weekend I've ever had. I actually. I canceled plans with Jay. I almost called you Sunday morning and said I'm. I'm going back to Mississippi.
Brandon
Okay. Oh, this was a quit.
Kyle
Oh, this was one of those.
Big Cat
So you want to tell me?
Kyle
I should probably tell you.
Jay
All right.
Big Cat
Okay. Let's go.
Donnie
Let's.
Eddie
You know what?
Jay
Let's go to the bathroom.
Big Cat
Oh, we'll double it up. I know that you hate.
Kate
Do you think it involves other co workers or something outside of the barstool realm?
Mark
Timeout. Yeah.
Kate
Time out.
Mark
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Brandon
No talking.
Mark
Sure.
Stephen
He canceled golf plans with me yesterday. Maybe, like, it was well enough noticed maybe like five hours in advance and just said, hey, not happening today. And I said, okay, whatever. We made plans for another time, but didn't offer any explanation. I didn't pry. I assumed it was because it was too hot.
Brandon
Could you sense the anger in the text message, Steve? Was he being short?
Stephen
Very short. But, I mean, I. That's kind of how he texts, right?
Nick
So the shorter the text, the more I believe in, like. Yeah, I didn't question it all justifiable.
Brandon
Yeah. A long explanation. It's like, you're lying.
Nick
You're lying.
Stephen
Need to cancel.
Brandon
Okay.
Stephen
That's how he's 9:30 in the morning on Sunday though, he's been like.
Brandon
He's been a keeper of secrets as of late. He tweeted about like Mince is mad at one person I know who's going to espn. Something happened to me this weekend. I think he's. He's getting off.
Nick
He's getting off on it.
Brandon
You know what I get off on, Kyle? Sipping a Mountain Dew in the sun. We're about to go to camp here soon. The Mountain Dew flows like water and it is some of the best times. I love Mountain Dew. Nothing goes better than hanging out with the boys at camp. And girls. Then a refreshing citrus kick of Mountain Dew. Mountain Dew is proudly born in the foothills of Tennessee. Enjoy the refreshing citrus kick of Mountain Dew. An American original. Grab a do. And as you all know, it's been tasting great since 48. Unchanged and delicious.
Kate
Very cool cans lately.
Jay
They have.
Brandon
I would love a mountain book of Mountain Dew cans as they take that book.
Kate
Yep.
Mark
By the way, Brandon saw Donnie is cooking something.
Brandon
Yes.
Mark
Right now.
Brandon
Yes.
Mark
He saw that right before the show. So we are on blow up watch. We are on the.
Brandon
He's been trying to.
Mark
We are on the like it and throw a microphone and then storm out and then.
Kate
Yeah, because you know what he's making? Pancetta. Tiny, tiny bacon.
Nick
That's tiny bacon.
Brandon
Oh yeah.
Kate
So he's gonna have a tantrum.
Brandon
He's coming back.
Mark
All right, here we go.
Brandon
We're good to go.
Kyle
No, we're not.
Big Cat
No, we're not going to tell it. But it's Brandon's right. Well that 100% the right. No, it's cuz there's little kids involved. It's, it's.
Brandon
Well now the implication is insane.
Big Cat
No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Stop. Nick, don't do that.
Brandon
I'm not doing that.
Kyle
No.
Big Cat
Remember your name was Pedo.
Eddie
Nick.
Nick
For a while we're assuming the worst.
Brandon
You put. Okay.
Jay
Yeah, you're right.
Kyle
By the way, if there was ever an apology needed on the show, Kelly Keegs needs to apologize to you because that chair, oh my God, that chair over there was the biggest hit I've ever seen in this office.
Big Cat
Matt, who's our great producer for Wake Up Barstool texted me this weekend. His niece was here. 11 year old niece sent me a picture. She was sitting in the chair said made her day.
Mark
How about that?
Big Cat
Literally making people's days.
Mark
Kelly going to call her creepy.
Donnie
Better.
Kyle
I believe the interns the other day said you made their day.
Kate
They literally.
Brandon
There was a line. There's a profile Line.
Big Cat
Crazy. So we did, actually.
Kyle
Where's my phone?
Brandon
I'm surprised there wasn't any backlash, though.
Big Cat
What do you mean?
Brandon
Seems like the Taylor Swift fans are very defensive.
Big Cat
Well, they're being. They're being little catty.
Kate
Oh, was there backlash then? Was there not?
Big Cat
Kelly specifically, like, the view. I'm saying anyone who's upset, I feel
Kate
like they're preoccupied right now with the wedding and stuff. I feel like they're a little.
Big Cat
Still.
Kyle
Well, that already happened.
Kate
I know, but still.
Big Cat
But this is a. This is a great. This is memorabilia and. And, like, what if Taylor Swift.
Kyle
They all wish they had the chair down?
Big Cat
What if Taylor Swift someday becomes something? What if she's, like, involved in, like, a double homicide or something? Then that becomes real memorabilia, right?
Mark
That's right.
Kate
It's true.
Donnie
Yeah.
Brandon
Value does go up.
Big Cat
Brandon, this. So dj, I just sent it to you. We gotta. I think we have to build, like, a platform because I think this chair needs to be able to be sat in. Right. Don't you think, like, people, like, sitting it?
Whitney
That's.
Kyle
That's what.
Kate
And there's, like, a little mural behind it. It's like, this is the.
Big Cat
Yeah. This is the chair that when you
Kate
sit, you have an Instagrammable moment.
Big Cat
Correct. Yeah. So. Because we did.
Danny
We.
Big Cat
We actually hung this chair this weekend. And then I saw it, and I was like, I don't know. It looked ridiculous.
Danny
No, that doesn't.
Brandon
That looks awesome.
Nick
That looks insane. Wait, that's perfect.
Big Cat
Baylo hung the chair. He's like, what do you think? I was like, I don't know.
Mark
You don't know.
Brandon
That's beautiful.
Big Cat
But it was right after Matt had texted me.
Kyle
His.
Big Cat
His knee sat in it. So it's like, I feel like people got to be able to sit in it.
Danny
Yeah, right?
Mincy
Like a throne.
Kate
Maybe I like to wall behind it. Maybe there's, like, angel wings coming about.
Big Cat
No, no, that was your idea.
Brandon
What about.
Nick
You know how, like, let me just
Big Cat
gaslit the out of me.
Brandon
The McDonald's bench has the built in. Ron, what if we had a Kelsey? A Travis Kelsey?
Big Cat
Oh, now we're talking idea.
Nick
Yes.
Brandon
We had to kill a Trav to
Mark
the right just standing right there.
Big Cat
Oh, and we could actually do, like, live action. We could just get, like, a James Harden lookalike to just dribble the ball endlessly on the court.
Nick
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Brandon
Turning it over.
Big Cat
Yeah, we just pay someone to dribble all day during business hours.
Kyle
Pay people for less.
Big Cat
All right, so what do you guys think? Should we hang It.
Brandon
I think, well, if it's making children's dreams.
Kyle
I mean, we have a sign by the trough in the bathroom, says, this is the trough. We should just put this by a wall and say, this is the chair. We have a little sign to make
Kate
it a photo op with a cool background.
Mincy
Or just have a single court site.
Kyle
I think we need even a cool background. I think we just need a sign over it that says, this is.
Brandon
I think we need a photo of her sitting in it.
Kate
Yes.
Big Cat
Yeah. Blown up poster of her sitting in it. And then we put it against the wall and people can go sit on it.
Brandon
Do we have, like, a sign that says no sniffing?
Mincy
One sniff.
Big Cat
I think I actually wouldn't hate getting
Nick
a, like, one flush.
Big Cat
I wouldn't hate getting a duplicate chair that we hang. So we could be like, that's actually our duplicate.
Nick
I want to hang a chair, a replica, real bad.
Big Cat
Stephen, find me a chair.
Brandon
Yeah, there's so many chairs.
Big Cat
We gotta chain. We gotta hang a chair.
Stephen
Certainly if the Cavs sold that one, they could sell another one.
Big Cat
Yeah, but, like, just search right now for chairs that we could. Famous chairs. Oh, yeah.
Stephen
Not Taylor Swift.
Whitney
Really?
Big Cat
Hemingway's chairs.
Brandon
That would be cool.
Big Cat
That'd be really cool. Or just chairs and auctions.
Mark
It's the most famous chair, Brandon. I'm trying to think of one.
Kyle
I am trying to think of one.
Brandon
It's got to be a throne.
Nick
Abraham Lincoln. Oh, but it's gotta be a throne. Would be a good idea.
Brandon
Hawking's wheel chair.
Nick
That's up there.
Big Cat
Yep.
Kate
What. What cool historical stuff happened in chairs.
Mincy
Oval Office chair.
Kate
Oh, yeah, office chair.
Mark
Where is that?
Nick
They replace that.
Big Cat
I don't know.
Mark

Mark
You might be chair one one chair.
Big Cat

Kyle
Like a stone coasting?
Big Cat
Yeah, like Hulk Hogan. Yeah.
Kyle
Some sort of WWE chair.
Big Cat
That'd be.
Brandon
There's a lot of good chairs out there.
Big Cat
I think Dave has some chairs in his office.
Kyle
What kind of chairs he got? Oh, he got the final four chairs. Yeah, he got the final four from Michigan's national championship.
Big Cat
Yeah, they're just given to him. Hang that one. I don't want to hang that one.
Stephen
So Bob Knight autographs, red chairs that you can buy.
Danny
I don't know about.
Kyle
I wouldn't say the president.
Big Cat
Not anymore.
Mark
I don't think he does.
Stephen
Oh, he's dead.
Kate
Yeah.
Stephen
Okay, so we have some Bob Knight autographed red chairs that are available for
Kyle
really a couple hundred Bucks.
Stephen
I mean, they're. They're not the chair.
Big Cat
Yeah, but that's kind of cool.
Stephen
Yeah, it's cool. Cool.
Kyle
I'd like to see one of those.
Big Cat
Yeah, show us one.
Kyle
Because the one. The one he chucked was like a old.
Big Cat
Yeah, it was cool. Yeah, it's great.
Mark
Chucky.
Nick
One of those.
Kyle
Not a folding.
Big Cat
Should we get one futuristic chair.
Mincy
We had, like, Morgan Wallen's chair that he threw.
Jay
Oh.
Mark
Off the roof. Oh, no, that's not the one he threw.
Big Cat
No, show the one he threw.
Mark
That's not even.
Kyle
He threw a very basic.
Big Cat
Can we just watch him throw it? Because it's so funny.
Mark
That's not the one.
Big Cat
It really was good skip across the perfect throw.
Kyle
Yeah, perfect.
Danny
Yeah.
Big Cat
Where it, like, didn't hit anyone, but
Kyle
it got the point across the right angle. Right across the free throw line.
Brandon
Did Clint Eastwood, like, debate an empty chair?
Mark
Right?
Big Cat
He did.
Mincy
Yeah.
Brandon
That's a good chair.
Mark
Pretended Obama was sitting.
Brandon
I think that's what he was doing.
Mincy
Who won?
Kyle
Cherry. Oh.
Brandon
From Pee Wee's Playhouse. Great chair.
Kyle
I would look. Cherry's ever been auctioned off?
Danny
Yeah.
Big Cat
Look at those.
Brandon
I would love Brandon.
Mark
Look at that.
Brandon
Brandon.
Kyle
So perfect.
Mark
Perfect throw.
Big Cat
Those chairs were so. Are so uncomfortable and they. They are futuristic. Like, at the time, they were like. This is what shares will be.
Kyle
What was the Purdue player doing? There is a Purdue or Iowa.
Brandon
It's Purdue.
Kyle
Why the Purdue player chase that chair? I don't think I ever noticed that until right now.
Mark
Yeah, I think you get a point
Big Cat
if you catch the chair.
Kyle
All right.
Brandon
What a spin.
Big Cat
It's incredible.
Kyle
Stares it down and then.
Kate
But he's good at Pachi.
Big Cat
Yeah. Why is he doing that?
Nick
Yeah. Sportsmanship award. Yeah. Good hustle.
Big Cat
What are the Purdue players.
Nick
In the country, Right. Non gameplay hustle.
Mark
No, you're right. That's exactly.
Big Cat
All right, so we got to find a different chair to throw up in the raft.
Kyle
How far are we from Purdue right now? Two hours.
Mark
Couple hours. About two hours. About two hours.
Kyle
We got to get you to Purdue. You talk about him enough.
Mark
Do the. What's the meme of the guys, like, has the debate me. He, like, sits on the quad, has the sign. Yeah, you should do that.
Mincy
Change my mind.
Nick
Oh, my God. Little league.
Mark
I'd go with you.
Jay
Yeah.
Nick
I would go to Purdue with you. Yeah.
Brandon
Purdue cannot be upset. Debate me. Change my mind.
Mincy
Brandon, you tweeted that Ben Mint is very upset with a certain employee.
Big Cat
I don't think I've ever been tagged
Mincy
in anything more than my life. And more than.
Brandon
And you're smiling right now.
Stephen
You love.
Mincy
Has he revealed it yet?
Kyle
I love. First of all, I think me and Ben Mentzer, friends. Oh, we texted two hours this weekend. Anyway.
Brandon
That's so much text.
Kyle
We got done with the show Friday. I just. I kind of. You know, Fridays are different. People will mull around and play basketball and kind of just hang out a little bit. And I was hanging with everybody, and. And I. I needed to meet Patrick Kane. That's what it was. And I go over and Mince is like, can I talk to you about something? I said, yeah. He said, first of all, anything you say, you can say whatever you want about me. I don't ever care. I don't ever care. And I'm like, all right. He's like, so it's funny on the act when y' all talk about it. All right, cool, cool, cool. And credit to him. And he goes. He goes, I. Anybody can say whatever they want about me. It's content. At the end of the day, there's one person. I'm just tired of their shit. I'm just tired of it.
Big Cat
So is he gonna call him out?
Kyle
He said he was prepared to call them out. He is here today. I don't know if you want him to call him out on the show.
Big Cat
I would like him to call him out on Mintz.
Brandon
Is this something you're comfort comfortable doing?
Big Cat
Should call them out on tweet.
Kyle
Oh, do you want to. Do you want to call them out on Twitter and then we'll bring you in, or do you want to come call them out in here?
Mincy
Here, sit in that chair over there.
Brandon
In there. Oh, a little screen time like this. All right, Mincy.
Donnie
Oh, I.
Big Cat
Wait, hold on, though. I don't know if the person is in the middle of something. I. I asked Brandon. Brandon told me.
Jay
Yeah.
Kyle
You're the only one in here who knows who it is.
Big Cat
Yeah. So let me double check.
Kyle
We're gonna wait until that person is free.
Mark
I'm free.
Big Cat
Let's give it. Let's give it like, a half hour.
Kyle
I was shocked. It's not you.
Mincy
No, I know. I know he doesn't.
Kate
In your minds, knowing it, were you like, that's reasonable, or were you like, huh?
Kyle
I think there's history. I think it's my favorite person that could possibly.
Big Cat
There is history, though.
Kyle
When I. When I think of the confrontations you could get, when I think of it makes a lot of sense. I. I love everything about who it is.
Nick
I'm kind of low with.
Kyle
I Have Is there.
Nick
I think Benjamin Mintz should be allowed to dislike people.
Kyle
I think pissed off Mets is a great. Is a great men's. We haven't really dealt.
Big Cat
Remember when he was gonna do NWO and he's gonna really show us.
Mincy
Yeah.
Kyle
And I'm afraid that one of my last text was can we do it when I get my NWO shirt in? But I don't think it's gotten in. But you know what?
Brandon
He's due for a bit of character development. He's been pretty.
Big Cat
One note.
Brandon
Yeah.
Mark
The revolution will start in three to five business days.
Brandon
I don't have prime.
Big Cat
All right, well, we'll do it. We'll do it in. In. I'd say like a half hour. I think might be when.
Nick
Okay, well, give them time to.
Mark
I mean, I guess that means we're all in the clear.
Brandon
Which I'm relieved by.
Mark
Yes.
Stephen
Yeah.
Mark
That's nice to know.
Kyle
Yeah. And. And for some reason on the Twitter, all the Twitter replies, they. A lot of people suspected it was really. Yeah.
Mark
That's good.
Kyle
Danny got the most. Most.
Big Cat
No, he just. He didn't like Titus when they first met.
Mark
First met.
Donnie
Yeah.
Brandon
Yeah. He thought you're a bit of a grump.
Kyle
Yeah, I'm an.
Brandon
You weren't hugging him.
Mincy
I think you'd be shocked to know that Mincy likes me more than Tate.
Donnie
Yeah.
Brandon
I don't believe it.
Mincy
He. I think he kind of respects that I'm just blatantly mean sometimes. Or as Tate kind of with him.
Mark
Tate's more of a snake.
Mincy
Yeah.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Danny
That's.
Big Cat
I. I'm saying like that is a strength of Mincy because I've said some really mean things to him and he.
Jay
It.
Big Cat
He's more attracted to me now. Oh, yeah. But negging him.
Brandon
Oh, yeah. Danny Fetish.
Big Cat
Big time Danny finish. Because he's a pathetic loser.

Brandon
Yeah, sweatpants are pleated.
Kate

Big Cat
He's a little bit of a metro. Do we still say Metro?
Danny

Big Cat
I think that's fine.
Brandon
Gay is back.
Eddie
Yeah.
Big Cat
Okay, so we just. Yeah, Cuz was metro, it was gay. Couldn't say gay.
Brandon
It was gay because you combed your
Kyle
hair and it was gay adjacent.
Kate
Basic hygiene.
Big Cat
No, it was just gay.
Mark
Couldn't came up with that though.
Brandon
Metrosexual. It was Alpha M. The youtuber, the man's coach.
Nick
Yeah, I love Alpha M, gentlemen.
Big Cat
He taught me Maserati Mike.
Mark
Just a man with.
Brandon
Oh, he used to be called a dandy.
Kate
Maserati Mike. Is it.
Brandon
Is that Maserati Mike's hard dizzy.
Kyle
Is it possible to be that stylish now? Because modern styles are more closer to that. Like back then.
Big Cat
Yeah. Felt like you put on one pair of like tight jeans. You're metro.
Kyle
Yeah.
Brandon
Should we have a dandy day on the yak? Yes, I would love that.
Nick
Yeah.
Brandon
Skin type Cody dresses like a dandy.
Big Cat
Yeah, he's been.
Kyle
He's been a lot more dandy. Connor Griffin can be a dandy.
Nick
Oh yeah.
Big Cat
Cody dresses like. He's. He's like a deckhand on Liberace.
Kyle
You must have had that one.
Donnie
He does.
Mark
You've been working.
Big Cat
He's just one. Oh, those are my boys. Walking around that one library. Just pinching his ass every time he walks.
Kyle
Oh yeah, that one didn't show up in your mind at 12:45, Cody dresses
Brandon
to get goosed by an old gay.
Big Cat
Yes, yes. He's just getting credit card swiped by a guy who's 75 years old, a billionaire. Just complete eye candy for horny gay.
Brandon
7k for it.
Big Cat
Oh yeah, that's part of his job. You have to be asking for it.
Brandon
Oh yeah.
Nick
He is the type to have like an 83 year old boyfriend.
Brandon
Oh yeah. Cody is like a month away from dating Calvin.
Danny
He should type.
Nick
That would take Calvin Clyde.
Big Cat
He's for sure gonna date Calvin Klein at some point.
Mark
Oh, Cody, speaking of, the boy just dropped his second blog.
Brandon
Yeah, I think it's on those bills, unis.
Mark
Yeah.
Brandon
Oh yeah.
Mark
For help you just drop blog number two. I'm reading through it. He plagiarized me within the second paragraph.
Mincy
Just stole on the bills, unis. So he's talking fashion.
Mark
Yep, that's right.
Brandon
Was it something you said on mostly?
Mark
Yeah, maybe almost work.
Brandon
Maybe I wasn't watching it.
Mark
Yeah, they're wearing it. For the love of God. All we wanted were some red helmets.
Big Cat
Oh, sweetie.
Nick
Clearance rack.
Mark
It's really hard to up a color scheme consisting of red, white and blue, but somehow the Buffalo Bills found it. I think I said that almost verbatim.
Kyle
Yes, you did?
Mark
Almost verbatim.
Kyle
Although in our history recently there's no guarantee he was watching.
Mark
That's true.
Kyle
We don't think he watches mostly sports. Eclipse. Mostly sports, but we don't think he watches pretty funny.
Mincy
Yeah, it's kind of like Chase sometimes.
Kyle
Every time we go to his desk to check it to try to get him into the. Into the studio, he is never there.
Mark
Right.
Kyle
He's just floating around the office trying to get pinched. He's been in the golf simulator before.
Mark
That's right.
Kyle
Cody.
Mark
Yeah.
Kyle
83 year old boyfriend.
Big Cat
Yeah, he does. He is.
Stephen
Happy birthday Cody. It was his birthday.
Brandon
Oh, Saturday.
Nick
Yeah. I rolled up Nicky Smokes birthday. It is.
Kate
Yes.
Big Cat
Congrats to him.
Nick
Surprised Panic's a big year for him.
Big Cat
He seems like a birthday week guy.
Mark
He seems like a guy who badly would Want to Die. 27 Club.
Big Cat
Yeah, he feels like he would be.
Brandon
That's what mgk.
Big Cat
There he is.
Kyle
Yeah, he just turned into from Mintz.
Brandon
Took mission spot.
Big Cat
He's got it. Nikki's got to be pissed that Nadu just threw himself a birthday party because Nikki definitely had the same plan.
Mark
Right.
Brandon
And now I was making fun of it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Kyle
He's like, did he have a tweet this morning where he acted like 28 was old? He's like, oh, I can't believe I'm getting old.
Mark
Is he 28?
Kyle
27, 20, whatever.
Kate
I think he has a blog outer that's coming out. That's like this is the end of the line.
Mark
Well that's what I think.
Big Cat
I think he's.
Mark
I think Smoke's move is he's gonna talk to women and be like, yeah, I'm 27. You know all the great ones, they die at 27.
Kyle
So this is 27.
Big Cat
Not old at all.
Kyle
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't freaking out a little bit. But everyone gets old just the way it goes.
Danny
You look at the little one one.
Big Cat
27 is prime. It's literally your prime.
Kyle
27 I think is the is.
Big Cat
It's my prime.
Kate
I said 27 to 33.
Big Cat
Rocked. Yeah. That is your prime. Like prime self confidence. Like just like everything kind of figured out.
Brandon
I think it's the perfect age.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Kyle
I got married. Yeah.
Brandon
So you can. You could still go back to your college and not be weird. Yeah, good. Go hang out with older. You could go anywhere.
Kate
The world is yours and you're a little smarter.
Big Cat
Lots of energy.
Kate
You actually party a little better.
Big Cat
Oh Jesus Christ.
Brandon
Oh cold Christ.
Kate
Yeah, that was the blog.
Stephen
Oh this is his golden birthday. Does that matter to you guys?
Danny
No.
Big Cat
I think one of the dumbest.
Kate
27's a golden birthday.
Brandon
Why is it going 27 on the 27th?
Kate
Oh.
Kyle
Ah.
Big Cat
It's so stupid that people do that.
Kate
I will say I thought him and Blutman and them were pretty cute at the White Sox game, eating their ice cream. Oh, I found that very, tremendously cute. It was pretty. Eating their little moonshot, sharing their ice cream.
Big Cat
I went to the Savannah Bananas on Saturday.
Mark
What?
Kyle
How was it?
Mark
Trader.
Kyle
You loved it. Yeah, it is a lot.
Brandon
Did you smile or were. Tell me. Your arms were crossed and you were frowning the whole time.
Big Cat
It was a lot.
Kyle
No, because you can't do that because your kids are having so much fun.
Big Cat
My kids are having a great.
Kyle
Right. So you can't be, like, the grump because your kids are having the time of their life.
Kate
Can you kind of walk us through it? What's the experience?
Big Cat
It's not. It's not a lot of baseball. No, no. It's a lot of everything else. And I'm not like, they're. They're nice enough to. To hook me and my family up. I was actually in a. I was in a. You would have liked this. I was in a. I asked for tickets because we did a video with them last year, and they were super nice, and they sent me the tickets. I didn't look at them until we were walking up. They put me in a suite. I was with Henry Roan Gardner.
Kyle
Oh, my God.
Big Cat
Oh, yeah.
Jay
That video.
Kate
This weekend.
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Kyle
That's a cool dude. Yeah, that's fantastic.
Big Cat
But, yeah, it was. It's. They've got it down. Like they've figured it out, and there's just going on at all times constantly. Like, you. There is not a second that you're like, oh, this is kind of boring.
Brandon
What was your favorite number?
Big Cat
I like the guy. There was a guy in a. What's like, the Moss camo.
Jay
What?
Big Cat
There's a guy in a. There was a banana in a ghillie suit who was just inching along the outfield wall for, like, four innings. That one made me feel like I was on drugs. That was interesting.
Mincy
Doing what?
Big Cat
He was just slowly going across, like.
Brandon
But, like, what was the end goal?
Big Cat
Yeah, it wasn't. Oh, yeah. The pepperoni pizza got stuffed in a trash can by cheese pizza.
Mark
No way.
Big Cat
That was crazy.
Kyle
When I went. They. They sent a. I literally saw the manager said, hey, man, get down to the bullpen. This guy went down to the bullpen. And you think, it's just like baseball. He's going to warm up. So he goes down to the bullpen and there he. He changes into a red dress and a blond wig and he. They put the spotlight on the bullpen and he sings a sexy song all the way to. Yeah, that was going to the bullpen.
Big Cat
Stilts was pretty cool.
Kyle
I didn't see stilts.
Big Cat
Still, stilts is pretty awesome. Yeah, I can't. I can't hate on stilts. Carrie Wood got lit up.
Kyle
Did he?
Big Cat
Oh, yeah.
Kyle
I only saw the trick. The trick pitch?
Big Cat
No, he threw like five pitches and I think four of them. Exit. Velo was like 110. He was just getting smashed.
Mincy
Zobrus too.
Big Cat
Zobers was Friday. I believe David Ross got a single on Saturday.
Mincy
They should have brought back. Brought back Bartman somehow.
Big Cat
Yeah, listen, I. It's for the kids. Like, I don't. I. People hate on it. I actually don't really understand why people hate on it. Because like adults hating on. It's like it's not for you.
Brandon
It's like an adult hating on like a children's movie.
Jay
Right.
Mincy
Disney on Ice.
Big Cat
Like, I'll hate on adults that go them without kids. Similar to Disney.
Kyle
They're all women.
Big Cat
Like an adult that shows up with a Bananas jersey and he doesn't have a kid. What are you doing?
Kate
No, but Brandon, you're right. Maybe some women there.
Kyle
The women love it.
Big Cat
God, yeah. I mean, we've already said it. They get paid in.
Kyle
Yeah, divorce. They're cute boys.
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah. No, they're good looking, but can you show Stilts? TJ Stilts is electric.
Brandon
Whoa. Which one is he on? The left or right?
Eddie
He was.
Big Cat
He batted, he threw. It Was it.
Nick
Was it just one guy who can do that?
Big Cat
Yeah, I think so. And it's just. It's like he's sassy. It just never. It never stops for three straight hours. It's just something has happened.
Brandon
Who won and who were they? Who are they playing?
Big Cat
The bananas won. They were playing the fireman. Scoring is different too. They do it by inning. So if you score more runs in an inning, you get a point.
Brandon
Oh, and was the guy in the suit there?
Kyle
And you get a point at the end for most trick plays.
Big Cat
That's right. You do get a. Most trick plays.
Mincy
And the.
Big Cat
I didn't. I don't. I don't really understand the four ball rules.
Kyle
Oh, when they, when they walk somebody and. And the guy can run until everybody touches it.
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah, that one's a lot.
Mark
You Guys ever veto anything your kids like? Not for morality reasons, but because it sucks. Lame and socks and stupid. I don't want to watch this with you.
Kyle
No, I haven't, unfortunately.
Big Cat
No.
Kate
I.
Nick
What?
Kate
I X'd out on Blippi. Oh, actually, I said, I can't do it.
Big Cat
Yeah, I mean, like, like, there's there was some, like, mind rot that my son was watching that we stopped. Yeah. Like, he was just. He was watching, like, other people play Minecraft. And I was like, we're done with this.
Nick
Yeah.
Kyle
Yeah. I wish I had done that.
Danny
Yeah.
Big Cat
But, like, for the most part, no. I'm like, I'm watching Unicorn Academy every night. That one's.
Nick
Well, Kate, do you have an example?
Kate
Yeah. Blippi is probably my biggest. I watched one episode with my son. I was like, no. And I said, he went on vacation and we've never.
Mincy
Yeah.
Kate
Again. I was like, I can't do it.
Mincy
What about if there's watching the same movie for the 50th time?
Danny
No, I don't mind that.
Big Cat
Oh, yeah, that's normal. Yeah.
Kate
Yeah.
Big Cat
Because also, they. They know, like, they're not gonna get scared. They know it.
Kyle
It's actually a comfort to know you can turn that movie on. Yeah.
Danny
Yeah.
Big Cat
No, we've watched Mario Super Mario like, a thousand times now.
Mincy
My nephew just watches up all day. I'm like, is this going to freak?
Big Cat
That's a good one. They like to know. They like to know what's coming.
Nick
Familiarity. Do you have an example, Mark?
Mark
Not yet. We. We've done a good job of slowly introducing her to stuff. Yeah. We have not given her choice yet. She has figured out the remote, though. She can turn on the tv.
Nick
She likes multimedia.
Mark
She likes. Bluey has become a big one.
Big Cat
That's a good one because that's a really good one.
Mark
And we like it and it's enjoyable.
Brandon
Very, very funny.
Eddie
Yeah.
Mark
Sesame Street.
Big Cat
Sesame Street's great.
Mark
Sesame Streets.
Kyle
Oh, wow.
Mark
So good.
Whitney
Yeah.
Mark
I'm so bad at the letter of the day, though. So bad. It's embarrassing. Took me way too long to figure out that it's, like, obvious.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Nick
Letter of the Day.
Mark
Like, they'll introduce, like, boats.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Mark
And then they'll do like a. Like a three minute segment on boats. And then they'll go to the letter of the day and it'll be B. And it took me like 30 episodes
Big Cat
to like, figure out.
Donnie
Yeah.
Mark
They'd start doing Letter of the Day and my wife's like, just nailing it. I'm like, how the do you Know this. And then that's when I realized I'm stupid. No, but we're, like, getting. We're getting to that stage where she's gonna start getting bored by the same. So I was just curious. Do I have it in me to, like, say, no, we're not watching?
Whitney
No.
Mark
It does seem Blippi's popped up a little bit in, like, Ms. Rachel videos or something.
Kate
Yeah, they do. They collab. The old Blippi. It would just be him. I remember the one that I put on where I was like, what the. It was just. He had a nice brand new truck outside. And then he gets a bunch of condiments and crazy music's playing, the screens flashing. And he just covered his truck in condiments and then washed the condiments off. And I was like, what are we. What are we doing?
Kyle
Bills fan.
Big Cat
Right?
Kate
And it was like, playing, like, you know, like, casino sounds like bing, bing, bing. And I was like, oh, my God. They've created.
Nick
Everything is optimized.
Kate
They've created, like a casino for my child's eyes. Holy. And. But if there were times I was super desperate for a minute, maybe I would pull it out of my back pocket.
Nick
Yeah.
Kate
I feel bad. I kind of dislike. We have a big shared driveway when my kid wants to play, like, baseball or hockey with me and stuff. Because it always ends with, like, a hockey stick to the face. It's like five toddlers running around with hockey sticks or so I'm always like, can we do something else? That's more Pat's. Pat's Realm is the sports.
Mark
Yeah.
Kate
Chasing a million foam baseballs out of all the bushes and the fixing golf carts. I'll say it. That's dude stuff. For now. I'm not interested.
Mark
How is that golf cart doing, by the way?
Kate
It's in the shop. So it's in the shop.
Brandon
Did they do more harm than good to it?
Kate
Yes, they did.
Kyle
Yeah.
Mark
All that was for naught.
Big Cat
That'll happen, man.
Kate
I want to know how was West Virginia?
Big Cat
Oh, yeah.
Brandon
I brought Ed Maresh and Zah, the
Big Cat
guy that Eddie tweeted the Nepa head. I want to be his friend Tony. He had a. A tape measure on his carabiner.
Mincy
Yeah.
Brandon
And mind you, there is a tape measurer on every cord.
Big Cat
No, but he's.
Brandon
He didn't trust.
Big Cat
Yeah. Look at this guy.
Kate
But the hat.
Big Cat
Do you see the tape measure on the.
Brandon
On his carabiner?
Mincy
Yeah.
Brandon
And he had the.
Big Cat
Unbelievable.
Brandon
He also had it. He had an Italian flag that he was carrying. But at the bottom it was like hooved.
Big Cat
Yeah. Then my big dogs.
Kyle
I like the guy behind him.
Kate
Yeah. Look at that guy. Holy.
Brandon
He was on the Morningstar. Big dogs, they're a good fucking team.
Mark
What's the knee pad for?
Brandon
Lean it. He goes one knee.
Big Cat
So you go one knee. Oh, for box.
Kyle
You can do that?
Eddie
Yeah.
Mark
I didn't know you could do that.
Big Cat
He's perfect. I want to, I want to, I want him.
Brandon
He had an Italian flag that had like a fork at the bottom to pick up the balls. And then he had his own Italian flag box that he put his balls in.
Big Cat
Do we have a video of that?
Brandon
I don't know if that has a video or not. It was Z was the mayor. I figured he was walking around, he was introducing people to me. He's like, hey, this is Mr. Palacetti. I'm like, hey, how are we doing?
Nick
His defense.
Mark
Yeah.
Brandon
And like I didn't see him for hours. But I'd get. My buddy's a sheriff. I got him to pretend to rest. Zaha and Zah freaked out because I was like, is there open container here? And I was like, I guess. And so I went outside and I got my buddy to go get him.
Big Cat
Oh, he's not here.
Brandon
The classic. Yeah.
Kate
How was. Are you allowed to say if you guys did well?
Nick
Yeah, yeah.
Brandon
We went two and two. Lost double elimination. But we got knocked out by some 75 year old women. They destroyed us.
Big Cat
But two and two, two and two is fine. Yeah.
Brandon
And then we went right after to the greyhound track.
Big Cat
Oh hell yeah.
Brandon
Bet on the greyhounds.
Big Cat
I didn't even know they still had the last one.
Kyle
Really?
Big Cat
They shut those down every.
Brandon
And we thought it was going to be strict. I forgot my ID and so I was like, oh, are they going to let me in? There was a kid's birthday party at the track. I saw a 9 year old crumple up his paper. I saw a 9 year old have a bad beat. It was unbelievable. It was a great. We had a hell of a a time.
Nick
And they stayed at your house?
Brandon
They stayed at my parents house.
Nick
How did that go?
Brandon
It went pretty well. We just late night out on the deck and we had a really good time. Z, he took notes to tell you Eddie wanted to go to the island real bad, which is a rough spot. And we were just driving around the island and people watching. I think everybody had a pretty good time.
Big Cat
Did you guys go to the Pirates game on Friday?
Brandon
I think Ed got there early. I got there late on Friday so I think he may have.
Kyle
What was the. What's the island?
Brandon
The island's a rough part of town.
Nick
It's an island in the middle of the Ohio River. But it's pretty big. It's residential. It has businesses. It has a casino.
Brandon
That's where we went to bet on the dogs.
Big Cat
Eddie's coming down.
Kate
Were you like the youngest people in the bocce tournament?
Brandon
By about 50 years.
Kate
Really?
Big Cat
Eddie, we're talking here. Let me do Shady Rays real quick. All right, guys, quick question. How are my Shady Rays? Basically the same quality as the 200 sunglasses I used to buy. Not exaggerating. They feel every bit as premium as the expensive brands I've owned. Meanwhile, I'm wearing Shady Rays to lake on the boat, at the game, on the job site. Because if I drop them in the ocean, they replace them, knock them off the dock, they replace them, sit them all. Sit on them. Day one, they replace them. And here's the crazy part. They're actually premium polarized lenses that cut glare hard, super clear optics, durable frames with solid hinges, clean, classic styles that look sharp without trying too hard. If you're outside on the water, in the sun, driving every day, you need shades that actually perform. Go to shadyrays.com, grab a pair, get sunglasses. And with lost and broken protection, we've teamed up with Shady Race to bring you an exclusive offer. Head to shadyrays.com and use code YAK for 50 off two or more polarized sunglasses. Try for yourself. The shades rated five stars by over 300, 000 people. Eddie, we're talking about your weekend.
Eddie
Great weekend.
Big Cat
That guy that you tweeted, I want him. Tony, do you have any video of his.
Whitney
His.
Big Cat
His ball picker upper?
Eddie
No, we didn't get that because I was standing. I was lingering too long. I felt like. Like it got a little uncomfortable how much I.
Brandon
Well, you don't want. You don't want to get on the morning side. You don't want to get on their bad side.
Eddie
Yeah, exactly. And he was. He was business like, he's not.
Big Cat
Yeah, dude, he's got the tape measure right there.
Eddie
The carabiner was incredible.
Big Cat
What a.
Eddie
And then Mr. Big Dog's just getting mogged like crazy. Crazy like. Yeah. He was the man.
Jay
So what.
Big Cat
What'd you think? Incredible.
Nick
Before. So I know you're not blowing smoke up my ass. Give me some negative feedback first.
Eddie
Negative feedback for Wheeling, West Virginia. Yeah, As a whole.
Brandon
Well, they were burning the shit that day. So the ship plant was pumping.
Nick
Yeah.
Eddie
Yeah, the ship. The main Street. What's it called?
Brandon
Main Street.
Eddie
Where the market is. We could use some better names. We could use better names. I would say it. If they just cleaned up the street a little bit, you know, and really put some TLC and love into those buildings. That could be a really nice down.
Nick
I think it's a beautiful. It has, like, incredible architecture.
Eddie
Yeah.
Nick
It has charm.
Eddie
Yeah.
Jay
It's just.
Nick
They need. Yeah. I think they are revitalizing.
Brandon
They need some love. It needs love.
Eddie
Yes. It needs love. Exactly. Like I looked at. I'm like, this is solid. Because I. I think the. The potential's there. But truly, I don't have a lot of negative feedback at all. Like, at all. I was infatuated by the island.
Brandon
He loved the island.
Nick
I'm with you on that.
Eddie
Oh, negative feedback. That bridge.
Brandon
Oh, what? That suspension bridge. Ed got scared on the bridge. What about it?
Big Cat
Scared on the bridge.
Kate
Yes.
Nick
An attraction.
Brandon
Ed got stuck in the middle of the bridge.
Nick
How big is this on a foot or in a car?
Brandon
Oh, they closed it down to cars because it's not safe for that anymore.
Kate
How big is the bridge? Like, how long of a walk was it?
Danny
It's.
Eddie
It's substantial.
Mincy
You have a general phobia of bridges.
Eddie
Bridges where you could see down.
Brandon
It's graded.
Eddie
Yeah. Like it's a drawbridge.
Brandon
But Ed got stuck. He wouldn't move.
Eddie
Yeah.
Kate
How'd you get him going again?
Brandon
We had to. Moresh had to take his hand. It was pathetic.
Mark
It was just over the Ohio River.
Stephen
Yes.
Nick
Oh, the holes in the grates are bigger than you'd think.
Eddie
Yes, they are. Like, hey, an old school iPhone could fit down that thing.
Stephen
Yes.
Nick
A thin gym. Like a ballerina could maybe.
Brandon
Oh, yeah, A ballerina on point would.
Eddie
Yeah.
Mark
Wow.
Eddie
Not me. But I was like.
Brandon
But he was on the sidewalk just clinging and wouldn't move. And then we're like, eddie, just take a step. And it was like he was lifting his foot and he was lifting both his feet. Like, he was walking. Wasn't going. We were just stuck.
Eddie
Dude. It was. That scared me. Okay, so the bridge is.
Mincy
Because you.
Brandon
Do you feel it swaying as well?
Eddie
But anything you have to close down for cars. I feel like the next step is this thing's.
Mark
Right.
Eddie
Uninhabitable.
Mark
Right.
Kate
Oh, it wasn't closed down for cars because of a festival. It was closed down because it wasn't safe for cars anymore. Yes.
Big Cat
Oh, yeah, that's okay.
Eddie
That's a problem.
Big Cat
Yeah, that's a big, big problem.
Brandon
And the max weight now is 2.2tons. Which doesn't seem like a lot.
Kate
A lot. I feel like elevators have that as their max weight. Okay.
Eddie
Yeah. So, like, I'm pushing a lot. I got a little nervous. Sorry.
Nick
Yeah.
Brandon
You were like, guys, I weigh more than you. And we're like, eddie, this had cars on it. A year ago,
Eddie
it was more of a concern. We saw the dog races, of course. Are those, like, as a dog, I
Big Cat
thought they were gone.
Eddie
No, that's the only state.
Kyle
Yeah.
Eddie
Left.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Eddie
Is that.
Big Cat
I don't love it. I've been before. I don't love it.
Eddie
Yeah.
Brandon
Were you shocked by how many kids were there gambling?
Eddie
A lot of kids. Yeah.
Brandon
You know, LAX rules there.
Eddie
Yeah. A lot of maybe. You know, probably not father of the year over there, but, you know, a lot of maybe. Yeah.
Nick
He like.
Brandon
You liked the touch screen cigarette machine. That was nice.
Nick
Advanced at the 19th hole.
Eddie
Yeah, it's very advanced.
Nick
Yeah. How was the. Did you eat DeCarlo's pizza?
Eddie
Yes. I thought that was legitimately good.
Nick
It is.
Eddie
Yeah.
Nick
Thank you.
Eddie
I enjoyed that. No, I have no negative.
Brandon
So I had the best time, I think.
Eddie
Yeah. Zah wants to move there.
Brandon
There was this. There was like, a five bedroom, three bathroom house on the island for sale for $29,000. And Zah was, like, checking his Chase account.
Big Cat
Yeah, exactly.
Eddie
We found. Yeah. We found that house. Like, some little quirks. It's just like any small town, really.
Brandon
Yeah.
Eddie
Like, it's not like they raffled off a lemon cello at the bocce ball tournament.
Big Cat
Love that.
Eddie
They made an announcement if anyone had a crescent wrench in their car, the keg was stuck.
Brandon
And then a bunch of dudes just ran out to their cars.
Eddie
It's like little. Like, that was like, all right. Yeah, this is perfect.
Big Cat
How many people were in the bocce tournament? How many teams?
Brandon
30. 31 teams.
Eddie
Yeah.
Brandon
They released the power rankings on the bocce blog. We were 31st.
Nick
Oh.
Brandon
And we came in 17th.
Big Cat
Oh, yeah. So not above your weight. Yeah.
Brandon
But Ed really beat himself up. He was sulking for hours.
Eddie
Ass. It was tough.
Brandon
And then, like, Ed. We went to a restaurant, and Ed disappeared for hours. And I checked the gambling room, see if he was smoking a cigarette. He was just playing Cruising World for about an hour.
Eddie
Sucked me in.
Kate
What's Cruising World?
Brandon
Cruising worlds at TJ's.
Big Cat
Cruising World, the video game?
Kate
No.
Big Cat
Oh, it's great.
Mincy
Like the driving.
Big Cat
Old school. Like, when Cruising USA came out, it was like, this is the future of everything.
Eddie
Yep.
Brandon
Ed was locked in on Cruising World.
Eddie
I took second in Singapore.
Brandon
Damn.
Mincy
Congrats.
Mark
Yes. The arcade Drive.
Kate
Okay.
Mark
Yeah.
Eddie
Now, would you say it's more of a suburb of Pittsburgh?
Brandon
It's a little far. It's not.
Nick
Well, it's not technically in the metro area, but it borders it.
Big Cat
But yeah.
Nick
Yeah, I would say it's more of an extension of Pittsburgh than like West Virginia.
Brandon
Definitely.
Eddie
Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Okay.
Kate
Do people swim in that river, like right there in Wheeling? No.
Danny
You don't.
Whitney
Yeah.
Kate
Okay.
Big Cat
Did you go to pnc?
Eddie
No, because we had to pick them up so we would have to leave early. Got it. Huh. But we were going to. But yeah. Overall, very positive review. I think it was like. It just. Just like any other small town.
Brandon
Yeah.
Kyle
Yeah.
Eddie
You know, quirks. Yeah.
Big Cat
I can't believe they have dog tracks.
Eddie
Yeah, they have dog tracks. And I don't think for much longer. I saved a program.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Brandon
And it felt so good sitting like the seeing. Just a sign that said non smoking. It was back in time.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Brandon
Plopping down in a non smoking section.
Eddie
Yeah.
Mincy
How is that one still standing? Because I thought they got rid of all them. I know that one in Sarasota, the one in Wisconsin.
Eddie
Yeah. They all. They all have since banned it. I also think you guys need to do something to get a minor league affiliate for the Nailers.
Brandon
Yeah. They lost the Penguins.
Big Cat
Oh, no.
Nick
That is true. I didn't want to bring it up.
Brandon
The. The new owner of the Penguins owns the Florida Everblades, and so now their affiliate is the Everblades.
Nick
Is. Are they for sale?
Brandon
I don't know.
Mark
So you have a minor league hockey team with no affiliate, nowhere to send the boys.
Nick
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Mark
Damn, that's tough.
Brandon
Yeah. It just happened. People were pretty upset.
Eddie
Yes. So what can we. I don't know. I don't know. What can you guys do to.
Brandon
I don't know. I don't know. What team needs a ECHL affiliate?
Eddie
Yeah.
Brandon
Because the Blue Jackets just got. I forget they just got one. That's who everybody was banking on.
Eddie
I'm also disheartened that they're not embracing of our boys here.
Donnie
What do you mean?
Eddie
Like, they're right.
Big Cat
It should be like a statue.
Mark
Yeah.
Eddie
No, like, they, like. I don't know.
Brandon
Ed was like, do people, like, celebrate when you come home? I was like, nobody gives a. But then like, he just. When he was saying that, a dude that walked into Bocce, that was like a quarterback for Wheeling Central, and everybody flocked to him. Yes.
Eddie
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Mark
That's the guy.
Eddie
Yeah.
Big Cat
Yeah, we need to get you guys.
Brandon
No, no.
Mark
William's pumped out some stars. Huh?
Brandon
Florio.
Donnie
Florio.
Brandon
The guy from My Big Fat Greek.
Nick
Johnny Corbett.
Stephen
Yeah.
Nick
Almost Brad Paisley.
Big Cat
Almost.
Brandon
A little South.
Nick
He's from a little.
Big Cat
Oh, I thought it was maybe someone on cameo that's doing.
Brandon
We do have a good Shania Twain impersonator. Shania Twin. She's always at the. She's always performing at the dog track.
Eddie
Yeah. You guys get to claim biz. Kind of.
Brandon
That's what made him. Yeah, he. It's what. It molded him for sure.
Donnie
But.
Eddie
Yeah. The way they talk about this island, though, Big Head, it's like you. I don't know.
Brandon
My mom was mad that Ed took me there.
Eddie
Yeah.
Kyle
You're a grown adult.
Eddie
The mystique of the island was. It had me on edge the whole weekend.
Big Cat
How was Nick's straight ass dad?
Eddie
The man.
Kate
Yeah.
Nick
Yeah.
Big Cat
And straight.
Eddie
Yeah.
Brandon
He kissed Zah. Yeah.
Donnie
Huh.
Eddie
He did some other lips.
Kyle
That was. I was not here.
Brandon
Yeah.
Eddie
Yeah. Explains a lot about Nick.
Big Cat
He did a lot of straight stuff.
Kyle
Really thinking about this one.
Eddie
Yeah. Yeah. He did a lot of straight stuff.
Brandon
There we go. Thank you.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Eddie
We just talked a lot of balls. Big Pirates guy.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Brandon
Ed was shocked by the amount of Pirates fans.
Eddie
Dude, they, like, love the Pirates.
Brandon
Yeah. Went to a Pirates bar.
Nick
Big time.
Eddie
Yeah. But I just figured they've, like, have
Big Cat
fatigued it out of everyone.
Eddie
Yeah, exactly. For how bad. That they're a little bad players.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Eddie
Yeah. They're back.
Kyle
At least on the way back.
Eddie
Yeah. Yeah. No, no. Negative review.
Brandon
You got cornered by a real talker. Nobody knew who he was.
Eddie
Oh, dude.
Nick
Yeah.
Eddie
Some guy who told me just he owned 16 guns and, like, told me how he drove to New York once and parked right in front of John's obliquer and just didn't give a. And everyone's like, you're gonna get towed, dude. He's like, I don't care.
Brandon
And then he took off his hat. It was a strawberry shortcake hat. He was like, I got every character.
Eddie
Yeah, it was actually. It's actually blueberry muffin.
Brandon
He's wearing a blueberry muffin.
Donnie
Okay.
Danny
Wow.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Eddie
He's like, I got every one of these. No way. He is lemon meringue.
Jay
Yeah.
Brandon
That's what.
Jay
Yeah.
Brandon
You should have called him out on his shit.
Eddie
Yeah. Did you know they have that many characters?
Kate
I didn't know.
Nick
What franchise is this?
Kyle
Strawberry Shortcake that's even for its time. That's a very niche that's coming from you, Brandon. Yeah.
Eddie
There's ten characters.
Kyle
Really?
Eddie
Yes.
Brandon
He's got one of every. He's got a hat of everyone.
Nick
Right.
Kate
I used to have, like, a scratch and sniff. They all smelled like what their character is.
Brandon
I remember that the dolls were.
Mark
Let me see the hats.
Big Cat
The hats are the hats they're wearing. Yeah.
Mincy
Is this what you.
Eddie
And we're talking like that. The hat's actually kind of sick.
Whitney
Where the.
Brandon
Were they custom guys? Where the.
Danny
Did he get up?
Kyle
He was wearing, like, baseball hats.
Donnie
Yeah, yeah.
Brandon
It was like one of every character.
Eddie
A baseball hat. Blueberry muffin.
Mincy
I mean, I kind of need to know the end of the story of him parking in front of Johnson Bleecker.
Kyle
Did he get towed or. I didn't give a.
Eddie
He just big dick, but was like,
Mincy
I just parked there for 10 minutes. I didn't give a. Yeah.
Big Cat
How quickly did he tell you this story?
Eddie
Oh, dude. I would walk away and he'd find me, and then it was. It was on again. Oh, yeah. I would have missed you for sure.
Kyle
Do y' all understand the weather that's happening around us?
Big Cat
It's hailing.
Brandon
My basement is flooding right now.
Kyle
It's bad. It's like three tornado warnings in the area. And can we see a real weather guy? We at Ryan Hall.
Eddie
And also, no pressure, but I was given three choices of pants for Rodney Dangerfield to wear.
Big Cat
Oh, let's talk about it, because, yes, Saturday is Ed's big party.
Eddie
If you'd like. If you guys would like to vote.
Mincy
Yes.
Kyle
This Saturday.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Eddie
Love to vote. Yeah.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Eddie
Okay.
Big Cat
Would love to vote. And did we ever get in touch with Asian Rodney Dangerfield?
Eddie
Working on it still.
Big Cat
Okay.
Eddie
Working on it.
Big Cat
We'd love to get Asian Rodney Dangerfield there as well.
Eddie
How do you think he'll mesh with. With our guy?
Big Cat
Probably not well. Which is what I'm looking for.
Eddie
True.
Big Cat
A little Roddy across race. Rodney Dangerfield fight. That's never been done.
Kyle
Would be the first time.
Jay
Would you.
Big Cat
It wouldn't be the first time.
Kyle
I just feel like they're in a competitive racket, you know, they probably ran across each other before.
Big Cat
Yeah, maybe.
Eddie
So we got three options. We got two randoms.
Big Cat
I feel like this is going to be an easy choice.
Eddie
And then one from Traditional from Caddyshack. He says. Okay.
Kyle
Awesome. Made the plaid.
Big Cat
I like that we get to dress them. Yeah, that's an all class.
Eddie
It's a good feature.
Big Cat
So is he gonna do a set?
Eddie
He said he'll do an opening.
Danny
Love.
Eddie
That doesn't sound like he has Quite a set.
Big Cat
But then he'll just hang.
Eddie
Yeah, he has opening remarks, then he'll hang.
Big Cat
Can you tell him he has to stay in character the whole time?
Eddie
Yeah.
Kyle
All right.
Big Cat
Because I would like to. Whoa, what is this?
Eddie
So those are two different pairs of pants.
Big Cat
All right. And then we have another option.
Kyle
Yes, the Ronnie. That's those. It's those.
Big Cat
Yeah, those. Yeah, I think so. All right, let him know.
Nick
So he doesn't do a set?
Eddie
No, he said. Let me pull up exactly what he said.
Big Cat
That's kind of crazy.
Kyle
What service does he advertise looking like Rodney Dangerfield?
Big Cat
We're just paying him.
Nick
Is that really what he does?
Kate
Just.
Nick
Yeah, he said look like him.
Eddie
Apparently. He says dressed as caddyshack. No time limit. I last as a meet and greet all night. No, stand up, possibly five minutes to start. The best pics and jokes, the best pictures. Yeah, I have no idea.
Mincy
So people would normally just pay him for a five minute set and then a couple pictures after?
Eddie
Yeah, I think, like, from what I understand, he does a lot of like, like golf outings, you know, like hang out and just, you know, do his thing.
Big Cat
That's fine though. Yeah, I'm fine with him just hanging out.
Eddie
Yeah. So, yeah. All right, we have the pants. I'll let them know.
Big Cat
I'm excited.
Eddie
All right, boys.
Big Cat
Thank you, Eddie.
Nick
Thanks, Ed.
Big Cat
This is gonna be fun.
Kyle
See ya. Bye, Eddie.
Big Cat
See you, Ed.
Mark
Bye, Eddie.
Kyle
See you, man.
Mincy

Kyle
Yes. I don't know where you're going with
Mark

Kyle
We're on board.
Big Cat
Okay, the. Everyone's doing golf content now. Mal Sec is now doing golf content. He just posted a video that basically was like, watch me be so much better than my friends at golf. That was legit. That was. The entire video was just like, damn, my friends suck at golf and I'm not so bad.
Nick
But that's exactly what I'd expect.
Big Cat
Look at this video.
Brandon
Is this another Jake Bragg?
Big Cat
Yeah, Jake Bragg.
Brandon
Par five here. I think I'm gonna bogey this.
Stephen
I love this video.
Brandon
Joey over here is gonna get a triple. And behind the camera, J.R. i think
Danny
he's gonna get a six.
Brandon
Other bogey.
Big Cat
There you go. Nice T shirt.
Kyle
Oh, he's. Yeah.
Brandon
You the man, Jay.
Big Cat
Hey, Joe Germanario here. I think I'm gonna bogey this hole. Are you sure about that? I think Jake's gonna pause and JR's
Eddie

Kyle
Junior here. I think I'm gonna get a par.
Big Cat
I think Jake's gonna get a six,
Kyle
and I think Joe's gonna get a nine.
Big Cat
Fish. Oh, Joey, is this rolling?
Nick
Yep.
Brandon
Five out.
Big Cat
Did you tell them that we had to do a. A weather break?
Brandon
Maroon 5 with the boys on the links. A top feeling. Maroon 5 golfing with Joe.
Kyle
No, no, Joe's struggling.
Brandon
Is that four balls?
Donnie
My Siri just started playing that because it hurt.
Brandon
I didn't that payphone?
Donnie
No, I don't think so.
Big Cat
All right, so we're at Jake's second shot after Joe hit his seventh.
Nick
Jake doesn't get.
Kyle
Oh, it's probably wet.
Big Cat
Oh, yeah, yeah. This is boring as and these guys all suck. And Jake's like, watch me hit this perfectly straight. Nice shot. He's just a bad guy.
Brandon
Nice course. This trace is unreal.
Mincy
Let's get this dmca.
Kyle
That's a nice ass course, by the way.
Brandon
Are they on the now right?
Nick
The hood to react to this video.
Big Cat
He and the guys.
Kyle
The hood reaction.
Kate
Yeah.
Kyle
Did you hit another one?
Big Cat
The guy's behind him. He's got a. I think I'm going to bogey this hole. Not an easy shot.
Kyle
He's got to clear 10. Excellent shot on the green there.
Big Cat
Clean out. Not great. He's on his fourth shot.
Kyle
He take it?
Donnie
He'll take it.
Big Cat
He's on his four shot. Oh, this is Joe on his 12th shot.
Kyle
Joe, I think you can pick it up.
Brandon
Not bad, Joey. Oh, yeah. Yeah, Joe, Good work, man.
Big Cat
What do you see? Number two on the par four.
Kyle
It's gonna be crazy.
Eddie
Ball's still going, though.
Kyle
This thing has two turns. Lefty and a righty.
Whitney
Come on left.
Kyle
No. So it had zero turns.
Big Cat
13th shot.
Kyle
That's a little hard there, Joe.
Brandon
There you go, buddy.
Big Cat
Drive over to the right. 14th shot. Two is the.
Kyle
Oh, Joe.
Big Cat
Joe, I think I'm gonna bogey this hole.
Kyle
Why didn't he.
Danny
Yep.
Big Cat
Par 15 shot. Oh, and here's Jake. He's on his fist shot. Wow it.
Danny
That's unreal. I think that was Kim.
Big Cat
Unreal.
Mincy
Someone, quote tweeted, saying the type of group I get stuck behind.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Brandon
Thomas the people a six.
Big Cat
Unreal.
Kyle
Was he legally bound to this hole of content?
Ben Mintz
Yeah.
Mark
How long is this video?
Kyle
What I do?
Big Cat
Nice bogeys. We watch your friends take 7,000 shots. Can't get it to die. It's just red.
Jay
All right, Joe, that's a 25.
Big Cat
Nine for Junior and a six for me. He's such a bad guy.
Brandon

Donnie
How you, man?
Mark

Donnie
Shake my slow hand.
Mark
Put your left hand.
Donnie
Like, doesn't. It's a sentiment.
Brandon
You're right.
Donnie
It's a nice action. It's an action act of trust.
Kyle
It's just confusing, that's all.
Mark
I want to play one on one.
Donnie
Sure.
Mark
Go ahead.
Donnie
6. Oh,
Big Cat

How was that cheating? He would have reacted better. Go again.
Donnie
Check the tapes.
Kyle
I thought you were reacting to my. Both rolled it.
Big Cat
You both rolled it.
Jay
No one's impressed. No one's.
Big Cat

Brandon
Okay.
Mark
I thought you were reacting to my six.
Eddie
Four.
Mark
Six. Again.
Donnie
How is he?
Mincy
Yeah.
Big Cat
Why would it be waiting until someone gets it?
Brandon
You can't let him beat you in a chef four.
Mincy
Lock in, chef.
Nick
Yep.
Jay
Wow.
Donnie
I'm good at dice.

Kyle
Did you get a hole in one this weekend?
Donnie
Nah, I didn't golf on the weekend.
Whitney
Golf during?
Nick

Donnie
Last time I golf was Dan. Hey, Cat. Sorry.
Brandon
Oh, no, docs.
Big Cat
You
Donnie

Kyle
They're looking a little small.
Brandon
I think it's the jeans being big at the top.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Kyle
Oh, the jeans. The gene hole's bigger than the entire.
Brandon
Shoe is your. Is your shoe.
Big Cat
You could take your jeans off without taking your shoes off.
Brandon
Kenya, can you do that?
Donnie

Kyle
Can you show that?
Donnie
You want me to take my pants off? Yeah, I'd rather. I mean, sure, I guess.
Brandon
Underwear on.
Kyle
You don't have to take your pants off.
Brandon
Okay.
Donnie
I don't have underwear on.
Big Cat
Seriously?
Brandon
The apron will cover my.
Mincy
What happens if you shake denim on skin?
Donnie
Winnie the Pooh.
Big Cat
Have you not put your underwear back on since you.
Donnie
No, no, no.
Brandon
You're not wearing underwear today.
Big Cat
Is that your only pair of underwear?
Donnie
Some days I go Canadian. You've never done it.
Big Cat
Canadian?
Donnie
That's what it's called.
Big Cat
I don't think so.
Brandon
You took that from the natives.
Big Cat
I don't think that's called Canadian.
Donnie
Sometimes commando and Canadian Interchangeable?
Big Cat
I don't think so.
Kyle
In what sense? Commando and Canadian? Never.
Donnie
We're going in the buck for going nude under your clothes.
Big Cat
Really? Yes.
Mark
Canadian.
Donnie
I'm not here to talk about my penis being on my jeans.
Kyle
Nobody accused you.
Ben Mintz
Is that.
Brandon
Is that zipper or button?
Donnie
It's a zipper.
Big Cat
Your penis is right on your jeans right now.
Donnie
Yeah, it's in my jeans.
Jay
Yeah.
Donnie
You could say no. Anyway, I'm using my one Yak of the year card to promote my new show.
Brandon
You have on twice a week.
Big Cat
And you also. Donnie asked me if he could come on. I was like, yeah, dude, your yak. Guest of the year 2025.
Mark
You have carte blanche parents a year?
Donnie
No, I said my card. I'm punching my card. Usually I. Usually you ask me the guys to come on. This time I've asked to come on myself.
Kyle
What's wrong?
Big Cat
Clip that for us. Clip that for us.
Kyle
Please don't click that.
Big Cat
I need that clip right now. I need that clip.
Mincy
Permission to come on yourself.
Big Cat

Big Cat
Yes, we did.
Donnie
Two days working and then I cooked a meal for the entire farm staff
Big Cat
with working heavy machinery.
Donnie
Heavy machinery. Yeah. Tj, if you mind, there's a trailer on another trailer.
Big Cat
Yeah, but also make sure we get that clip.
Donnie

Just another day in paradise here. You guys made good friends. That's a funny scene.
Danny
Yeah.
Jay
Mike, what is this? Shut up.
Big Cat
We're a bad crew right now. Ah, we really need to save this cow shit.
Nick
There we go.
Kyle
Donnie is straight up good human. And I can tell that already. Just in the short time.
Brandon
Did you edit this?
Big Cat
Cooking with him had to be this top level.
Kyle
We're gonna see they have what it
Mark
takes to make the cut.
Big Cat
I'm just glad you guys didn't bring Titus with you. Oh, there was a second time out. Way to go.
Mark
Time out. That was obviously scripted. Oh, that was so obvious.
Big Cat
Joe Thomas does hate. Yeah, he hates your guy.
Brandon
Joe Thomas hates Titus.
Big Cat
He hates you guys.
Donnie
Unfortunately, he told me that. So that comes out at 6pm tonight Central.
Brandon
I feel like there was an ulterior motive here.
Donnie
No, I just wanted to promote the show, man.
Big Cat
You just wanted to promote the show?
Mark
Just wanted.
Big Cat
Well played, Donnie.
Donnie
Anyway, that's all.
Mark
That's why.
Big Cat
That's why you wonder why you. Yeah, that's okay.
Donnie
I gotta film what's for lunch. But thank you, guys. That's all I had. Thanks, Mark.
Mark
I see why you did this.
Kyle
Johnny, what are you making A walk
Brandon
off with a smirk.
Donnie
We're Making a matricana pasta.
Big Cat
My dad said hire the handicap because they're fun to watch.
Brandon
Yeah, yeah, but what about. I mean.
Mark
Well played, dad.
Brandon
Dave Portnoy.
Big Cat
Do we have the clip of Donnie saying he'd come on himself? He's just so good with words.
Brandon
So good. Yes. My penis is in my jeans.
Kyle
I didn't come here to talk about my penis in my jeans.
Big Cat
So good with words.
Stephen
No wonder. Where is a brave choice for a guy who pooped his pants like five days ago?
Big Cat
That's what I'm saying.
Brandon
Yeah, yeah.
Mark
Canadian.
Danny
Yeah.
Donnie
I don't.
Big Cat
I don't never.
Kyle
Nobody's ever said that.
Kate
Is it because commando is.
Mark
I think he was thinking of.
Nick
He was thinking of Canadian tuxedo denim was on his mind.
Big Cat
He leads the league in just sayings that aren't saying crazy.
Brandon
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Mark
Use my 1 Yak card a year.
Big Cat
Steven, what do you got? We'll do minute. Yeah, in a minute. What do you got for us, Stephen?
Mincy
Anything?
Stephen
You had a great topic over the weekend.
Big Cat
It was not a great topic.
Stephen
Peach versus nectarine.
Big Cat
Yeah, let's get m going to get heated.
Kyle
You weren't.
Big Cat
I.
Kyle
You weren't serious.
Big Cat
I was.
Kyle
Peaches and nectarines are two. Two different.
Big Cat
I thought it was like a nectarine is a peach.
Stephen
I thought they were the same thing too.
Big Cat
I know that there's. I know there's a difference.
Kyle
Yeah.
Big Cat
But I thought like the peach family nectarines, they were interchangeable. Correct? Yeah. I'm so bad at this. Whenever I'm asked to go to the store for something, it's a disaster.
Kyle
Did you. Did did you get bitched out by
Big Cat
who rashed you to get I to
Kyle
go back and get peaches?
Big Cat
No, she just called me an idiot.
Kyle
Okay.
Big Cat
Which is warranted. But I also got two different types of nectarines, so I feel like that
Brandon
equals a P. One has to work. And like, what was it? Was it for like a peach pie?
Big Cat
I don't know what it was. I was just get peaches.
Brandon
I don't know in what world a nectarine doesn't.
Big Cat
So it's just a shaved peach.
Mincy
Yeah, nectarines are a little harder.
Stephen
Was peach top left there. That's peach, right?
Brandon
Yeah, Fuzzy.
Big Cat
Also, in my defense, when I walked into the grocery store, there was just a shitload of nectarines right in front of me.
Kyle
Why that. You don't see a lot of nectarines in store.
Big Cat
It was like. Like, boom. I fell into a box of nectarines. I was like, well, I gotta get these. I'm not gonna Go try to find the peaches.
Kyle
I guess in that scenario, I got where you're coming from.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Stephen
So what is the difference between the two?
Big Cat
One shaved, one's not.
Stephen
But, like, taste wise, are they?
Big Cat
I think they're the peaches.
Mincy
A lot softer.
Big Cat
Same species. Okay, so I was kind of right. That's what I'm saying. The same species.
Kyle
Flavor, slight favor balance. Flavor balance, though. I mean, they. That means that they taste different.
Big Cat
Slightly firmer, denser, in a store, a bit better than softer peaches.
Mincy
Where does the apricot come into play?
Brandon
Oh, my God.
Big Cat
I guess.
Brandon
Totally forgot all about that. More apple.
Big Cat
Apricots.
Kyle
No, stop saying apricots. It's apricot.
Big Cat
Apricot.
Kyle
It's apricot. It's not apricot.
Mark
It's apricot.
Big Cat
Apricot. I don't know. He said apricot.
Kyle
Yeah, but he said it wrong.
Danny
Apricot.
Kyle
It's not an apricot. Nobody's ever called it an apricot.
Mincy
Depends where you're from.
Kyle
That's a weird.
Big Cat
That's a weird fruit name.
Kyle
Fine. But if you're from America, you say apricot.
Big Cat
Apricot.
Mincy
I'm from America, brother.
Stephen
I've never heard anyone say apricot.
Mincy

Kyle
Oh, nobody's ever said apricot.

Kyle
Oh, it does say apricot. Is frequent in the Midwest.
Kate

Kate
Oh, an orange.
Danny

Kate
I know, but what did it used to be? Oh, a peach.
Brandon
It's kind of like.
Kyle

Brandon

It is apricot, Kyle, you had.
Mark
It's apparently apricot.
Kyle
This one over here said apricot.
Nick
It is nectarines. Is that what you were talking about?
Mincy
Yeah.
Nick
I was a nectarine family.
Brandon
I was, too. My mom had nectarines.
Nick
Everything I loved when they were super hard and it was like, you got a crunch out of it.
Danny
Yeah.
Big Cat
You remember when, like the. Because everyone does, like the doomsday. Everything's worse now. One thing that's just not worse is the fact that you can eat any fruit at any time. Do you remember, like, when we were kids, like.
Donnie
Oh, yeah.
Big Cat
You can't. No, no, there's no oranges.
Nick
That is true.
Big Cat
Like, what are you talking about?
Brandon
I guess I've never realized that we are just could get.
Big Cat
Yeah. Everything.
Brandon
Can you get watermelons in the winter?
Big Cat
Yeah.
Nick
Yeah.
Brandon
You can?
Eddie
Yes.
Big Cat
People would, like, ship up oranges. Wait, Florida?
Mark
How?
Kyle
We mean, you can go to a grocery store.
Mark
No, yeah, I get that. I. I mean, how are they doing it?
Big Cat
I think they just grow them in other parts of the world and then they ship.
Donnie
Huh.
Kyle
How? I never. I don't remember having problems getting an orange in the winter and it.
Big Cat
Oh, yeah. South. Yeah.
Kyle
Okay.
Mark
They just be growing watermelons everywhere.

Yeah.
Kyle
They grow the.
Big Cat
The square ones in China.
Eddie
Yeah.
Brandon
So they could stack them.
Mark
Yeah.
Big Cat
California just grows everything, I think.
Kyle
Yeah. They grow everything.
Big Cat
They have everything.
Mark
Have it all.
Brandon
You would love it.
Big Cat
Debbie. Be like, oh, yeah, you can't have, like. No, blueberries aren't in season. You can't have those.
Mark
I bet they don't have three tornadoes right outside the door.
Big Cat
No, probably not.
Mark
I don't have just a random ass storm in the middle of everything.
Kyle
It's still going out there.
Kate
Oh, yeah.
Mark
You're told it's the best place on Earth to be in the summer, and yet every day.
Brandon
It's been a tough summer.
Kyle
Every day there's more storms, cold snaps, fires, smoke.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Mark
You know, smokes.
Kyle
We're gonna do the mitts thing or.
Donnie
Or.
Kyle
I don't even know if that's. If the person's available yet.
Brandon
I'm really curious who this could be.
Kyle
So do we want him to just. I mean, call him out?
Nick
I think you could just call him out.
Mark
I think you call him out, too.
Big Cat
All right, I think we're to the row back.

Mincy
So Brandon Mintz went out of his way just to tell you this or were you on the topic somehow?
Kyle
No, he went out of his way to tell me this. He, he confided in me. He was like, listen, I'm fine with everybo making fun of me, even though I'm hurt. You know, I can take it. Whatever y' all say on the yak is good for me. And then it was just. But, but, but one person, one person really pisses him off. One person has no business making fun of him. One person is taking it too far.
Brandon
And did it surprise you when you found out who this person was?
Kyle
A little bit. That, that, that. Yeah, it surprised me.
Mincy
Yeah, I kind of know too. Not that surprising. But like, what is he doing different than.
Nick
Did he back up his statement? Examples?
Kyle
Yeah, well, he, he see mentioned to show that this person is on and how, how this person just uses the show to sometimes go a little too far. I Feel I've said too much. You already know who it is.
Big Cat
All right, wait, hold on. Before we do that,
Ben Mintz
we.
Big Cat
I did. The person that he's gonna say needs like 10 minutes.
Mincy
Okay.
Kyle
Oh, wait, 10 minutes.
Big Cat
Okay, but Mincy, come in here. But TJ, can we join a stream yard, like currently and join it?
Kyle
Well, we don't wanna.
Big Cat
No, no, this is for something else.
Kyle
Okay.
Big Cat
Tj, like to talk back and forth. Yeah, yeah. Yan's asked me to come on Chiclets to give Whitney.
Kyle
Oh, he walks, walking.
Ben Mintz
Hey.
Brandon
Oh, look at progress.
Big Cat

Brandon

So Mincy, you got to give Whitney for Family Feud.
Danny
Okay?
Big Cat
Like really give him.
Danny
Whenever they beat us in the qualifier.
Big Cat
No, but really give him. Okay? Because it will. It will get him upset.
Danny
Okay.
Big Cat

Brandon
Mince, call him a. Yeah, call him a idiot.
Big Cat
Be like, even I got something.
Jay
Okay.
Brandon
Oh, yeah, by all means. I don't want to put words in
Nick
your mouth, brother, but don't laugh as if it's. It's scripted and fake. Try to be sincere.
Big Cat
Yeah, okay.
Mark
Be ruthless, Miny. Yeah, ruthless.
Big Cat
Yeah, Lay into it, cuz.
Kyle
Wet's a guy that's gone at you before too.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Danny
Oh, a lot.
Kyle
Yeah.
Nick
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Kyle
Not like in a fun way. Like I do.
Danny
I mean, the chicken stuff is kind of funny though.
Mincy
Oh, no, no. Miny, right now, right?
Brandon
I need to be a hard ass.
Big Cat
Really go at him.
Kyle
You're not in a hard ass stance right now.
Danny
I'm just glad I can walk.
Brandon
Yeah, it's a miracle.
Big Cat
So you can walk now.
Danny
Progress.
Kyle
Yeah.
Big Cat
Start for the walking boot. What it does, she told me, like, it's only like a five day activation for the walking boot.
Danny
She told me to wait till later, wait a week on it.
Kyle
Does this. Does it hurt keeping it on your knee like that or.
Danny
Oh, it's. I mean, the pain's manageable. The mobility was always more the problem.
Big Cat
You know we haven't been making fun of your injury.
Danny
I know.
Big Cat
It's the fact that you. That it's like an empathetic human being.
Danny
Yeah. And it aged me 30 years.
Kyle
Yeah, it kind of did.
Danny
I went like, I felt. I felt young. And then all of a sudden I'm like, man, I'm a 43 year old, overwhelming guy with a broken ankle. Yeah.
Big Cat
Never has the injury ever Taken someone out more thoroughly than your sprained ankle.
Danny
It's broken.
Nick
I can't imagine how frustrating and demoralizing it is to have to break up your. Your workout routine that you were.
Danny
We're doing all right. We're back getting back on the right track, though.
Nick
You know, you're exercising.
Danny
I'm trying to just lift some upper to not.
Big Cat
Do you think you'll be ready for football season?
Danny
I think I'll be ready. Yeah. I don't think you'll be seeing a Chicago marathon anytime soon. I think we're going to be doing more walking and lifting.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Jay
Okay.
Brandon
What about. How's the diet been?
Danny
I have a fat guy moment that crushes what Walker said earlier about a poor fat moment. I have a. I can't believe I don't have a picture of this, because y' all are going to laugh so hard. So I completely collapsed the box spring of my mattress on my bed because I was, like, kind of, like, popping out of my chair to hop on the bed, but not being soft, getting on it. Like, I was just, like, kind of jumping on it.
Kyle
Yeah.
Danny
And I'll bring a picture tomorrow, but the whole thing's caved in completely.
Kyle
So. Bottomed out your bed.
Danny
Yes.
Brandon
Rewind a tiny bit. You're in your computer chair.
Danny
I was still wheeling around in that chair chair Tate gave me.
Brandon
Yeah.
Danny
But I would. As I would pop out of that chair onto my bed, I was kind of, like, not doing it softly.
Brandon
You would spring yourself out of it.
Danny
Yes. And now the whole. I. I'm out on the picture. The whole thing's caved in.
Kyle
You were. You were bouncing from a wheelchair into your bed.
Danny
Just. There was nothing soft about.
Kyle
How were you generating spring?
Danny
I wouldn't. I would just, like, push off the wheelchair to put my butt down on the bed. But, like, instead of gently setting down, it was, like, plopping down. Now the whole thing's collapsed. I mean, dude, it. I got mad. I don't have a pick. It's a disaster.
Kyle
Your. Your bed is now just caved in through the frame and is touching the floor almost.
Danny
It's, like, swayed to the left.
Kate
How you been sleeping?
Danny
I slept on it last night, but then it caved in even more. So I think we're gonna be on the air max.
Kyle
So you're sleeping with a kind of
Danny
a rotated bed to the left. Because now it's unsleepable now is.
Brandon
How tilted is the bed?
Danny
It's bad. I mean, it's almost on the floor now.
Mark
What if you Flip the mattress. What about that?
Danny
We. I slept there last night, but it's unsleepable now. I woke up today and I was like, this is. This is bad. This is bad. I'm mad I don't have a picture because it's just a train, so.
Brandon
Eat one out later tonight.
Danny
I will.
Nick
Yeah.
Brandon
Move the stuff from your night.
Danny
It's. It's not a good moment.
Big Cat
Sorry. I was trying to coordinate that. Did anyone mention the. The. What was with the sweatshirt on the computer? Oh, yeah.
Mark
You have this.
Brandon
The sweatshirt on your.
Big Cat
What are you trying to hide?
Danny
Oh, just because the monitor was on and headlight at night and I was trying to sleep, so I put the sweatshirt over it to cut the light.
Big Cat
Well, why don't you just turn the computer off?
Nick
Yeah, it's. That would be.
Danny
I could do that.
Big Cat
Do you show what we're talking?
Danny
No. Yeah. The only thing on my computer is on my poker.
Kyle
What?
Danny
Ain't nothing else on there.
Kyle
You're telling me you're. You're telling me this is good. Your monitor's on all night and you just cover it with a sweatshirt so that you can't see it?
Danny
Yeah.
Brandon
What about the power button?
Nick
Button?
Mincy
Do you put your coat over a lamp?
Whitney
What the.
Brandon
Dude, Mince. I think people are going to think there's porno running.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Nick
24 hours, they're gonna think it's porn.
Danny
You can.
Big Cat
I 100 thought it was porno.
Danny
Yeah, you can audit my computer.
Big Cat
I thought it was pornography.
Kate
So you blew your mattress out?
Danny
The mattress.
Kate
Laptop's covered with.
Danny
Yeah, the mattress thing. I'm telling you, the mattress thing. I'm sorry. There's not a pillow.
Brandon
You never turn your monitor off.
Nick
But the button.
Brandon
The button right on the front.
Big Cat
That thing's just going all the time.
Kyle
You took. It takes way more effort to cover it that tightly with a sweatshirt than just pressing the button.
Danny
I see why y' all say this. And I should have thought of that.
Kyle
Sure.
Danny
Yeah. I'll just throw this.
Mincy
It's like.
Danny
Oh.
Big Cat
So every time you get to your computer, you're doing, like a statue reveal.
Danny
Just. Only in the morning. The first time. In the morning.
Big Cat
Yeah. So every. Every time.
Kate
Yeah.
Brandon
So do you have a designated sweatshirt that you put over that?
Kyle
I don't know.
Danny
Yeah, it's my camp bar stool mountain. Dude, do the dish.
Big Cat
That thing has gotten more use, Golly, than any.
Kyle
It uses a tarp. Yeah.
Mincy
It's like covering the pool for the night.
Mark
Is that. Is that how you thought others to
Big Cat
make sure no one sees his porno.
Danny
There is no porno on there. I know.
Brandon
It's just, if I go to your.
Big Cat
That's a lie and type P. That's a line.
Danny
No, you can go.
Big Cat
There's no porno on your computer.
Danny
No. Aud, we can have an audit. There's no porno on there.
Brandon
Is it the work laptop?
Danny
No.
Big Cat
You're saying there's no porno saved on it?
Danny
No, I haven't watched no one.
Brandon
What about, like, certain you don't watch porn?
Kyle
Let me see your phone.
Big Cat
You don't watch porn?
Danny
I have a four on my phone, but not. Not on my computer.
Jay
What do you do?
Nick
What porn videos do you not watch on the computer?
Danny
I just. I kind of made, like, a commitment to not watch porn.
Nick
What specific.
Kyle
I like that. So you just use.
Danny
I just realized I was like. But I can't say that I never did. But I realized I was like, I don't need to do.
Brandon
Were you a big porn guy?
Kate
Never.
Danny
Like a huge one. But, I mean, it was, you know, every now and then.
Kate
No.
Kyle
This is commendable. I like that.
Danny
Now I realized I was like, this is not good.
Big Cat
So whom have you been jerking off to?
Danny
I mean.
Brandon
Yeah, how have you been.
Danny
I mean, use imagination.
Brandon
You know, you've been using, like, from past your legs.
Big Cat
People existing today, more past, past.
Brandon
Oh, really?
Big Cat
Do you have one that you just keep going back to?
Danny
I mean, I wouldn't say one. I'd say it's more of, like, a mix.
Brandon
Nice. Do you ever fabricate when you're imagining, or is it just as it went?
Kyle
No way. It's a mix.
Big Cat
Do you jump from video to video in your brain? Like, are you, like, start with Cheryl and then you end with Kathy?
Mincy
On today's part of my table.
Danny
I don't know. I mean, every. It's different. I don't. I mean, I'm also, like, 43, so I don't do it as much as
Nick
I used to turn the tables on these guys.
Danny
I mean, call them out. Hate to disappoint you all.
Brandon
No, you're not disappointing. We like learning.
Big Cat
Curious.
Kyle
Yeah.
Brandon
Are you excited to get whoever you're angry with off your chest?
Danny
Yeah, I'm excited to let one let one free.
Mark
Yeah.
Kyle
Yeah.
Danny
You know, because I, you know, I usually ignore it. And I said this nwo. I'm not taking crap anymore. And, you know, we're gonna. We're gonna.
Big Cat
Well, here's how you're gonna start. You're gonna start with Whitney. You're gonna test run. You're not taking crap NWO with Whitney
Brandon
because he said some nasty.
Big Cat
Yeah, he said he hates you.
Danny
O
Kyle
we getting on there?
Big Cat
Yeah, I think so.
Brandon
Did you think that's why there are so many sweatshirts lying around this office?
Jay
Okay. Okay. Is this the whole yak that's going.
Big Cat
Yeah. Hey, what's up?
Jay
Okay, so we're recording your live. This is great. What's going on? Neither one of these guys. I don't think one person I could see right now was on the show with me, though.
Kyle
No, but they watched.
Big Cat
No, we watched. We watched the previous.
Jay
Yeah. What a crew of people I get to talk to now. What's up up, big cat?
Big Cat
What's up, dude? You. We got a special guest, though, that really was disappointed in your Family Feud performance.
Jay
Who's that?
Danny
Okay for family. God. I feel like that was a pretty shitty Family Feud performance.
Big Cat
Take it easy on him.
Jay
Oh, he's having a tough week, man. I've been. I've been battling ankle injuries for 20 years and you'd think with what you're going through, we'd be lockstep together. I've never done a thing to you but support you. What?
Kyle
Man see a on you.
Jay
What are you talking about? We're bad ankle guys together. Now. I told people in that office that you're sitting in, be easy on them. Ankles are tough. Ankles crush. Your ankles can wear you down. And what do I. What do I get? I sign on here and get ambushed by Ben Mintz about my Family Feud debacle. And somebody who knows a lot about debacles and really crumbling under pressure is yourself. But I wouldn't have brought that up if you hadn't come on here and given me like this.
Danny
What are you gonna do? I mean, you got no. Point.
Kyle
No, you didn't.
Danny
He's a family.
Jay
These are guys, Buddy. We're badass.
Kyle
He froze up. He froze up like a man.
Nick
Don't fall.
Danny
Said my family.
Brandon
Call him A. I can't believe we're ankle guys worked.
Big Cat
He said you're the worst of the worst.
Jay
Thinks that's pretty legit when you're battling an injuries together. There's only one other guy sitting in that office with you right now that knows what I've been through. And he's going through this game.
Big Cat
He broke me.
Brandon
Terrible.
Danny
He got me.
Big Cat
Mincy.
Jay
Thanks you, buddy. Feel better. That walking boot sucks. I had one on for basically a year. Dude, this blows you.
Ben Mintz
What? Used to play in one of those.
Big Cat
How do you do that?
Jay
Were you guys all that? Did you Was it that embarrassing what I did? Was it that.
Big Cat
No, I actually had your back with. I thought to Steve Harvey cut you off.
Ben Mintz
I agree.
Jay
I think you were two seconds. It's supposed to be three now. I can admit because we haven't even.
Kyle
This is.
Jay
This is a live Chiclets yak. So I can kind of go into this if you guys have two minutes.
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah.
Jay
Why I aggressively press the button without an answer is a question I'll ask myself till the end of time. I just wanted to win that race and then kind of thought I'd have more than, you know, two seconds to have an answer. I didn't have an answer immediately knew that I'd be the storyline in Dave Portnoy's world. And unfortunately it's turned into that now. The problem with me doing that game is I'm not that quick on my feet in terms of like, when the lights are at their brightest, you've seen double overtime hockey championship game, put it in my own net to lose Stanley cup finals, you know, didn't play great. Olympic gold medal game. Minus one. Didn't see another shift. When the lights are the brightest, do I show up? Not necessarily. Family food wasn't for me, but I still just don't know why I wanted to win that race against Ace. Flag. Talk about the wrong name. He should have been named Cooper. And I think Cooper should have been named Ace because he got. Got crushed in the department of being born second and then looking like that.
Ben Mintz
Oh, that wasn't even the guy who played in the NBA.
Jay
No, Ace is the worst player. They should have switched names when they realized what was happening. But yeah, I don't really have much else to say besides it was a disaster. And the fact that I had to wait and wait and wait for it to be aired made me even more sick.
Ben Mintz
Yeah, I got a question. If you could scrub one moment off the Internet, would it have been the Beer Chug or would have been the Family Feud?
Kyle
Great question.
Jay
I would pick the beer chug 100 times out of 100. Yeah, I'm blowing a saber sword, tickling it balls, and it's like in the middle of a playoff game against the Bruins. So everyone I know in Boston's watching the game. Not that they wouldn't have seen it on the Internet, but the Family Feud just looking dumb without saying anything. That is small potatoes compared to blowing a saber sword on tnt.
Kyle
Agree.
Big Cat
Yeah, well, the, the, the. The one saving grace for you wit was that your whole team sucked. So it's not like you blew it. Like, if you had blown that. If you guys had won around and then it was like the third round and you had to win that, and then you blew it. Then it's a whole thing. You guys weren't winning. You could have played a hundred times. You were. You. You were losing that day.
Jay
I. I consider myself good friends with everyone on the show with me that day, but as Feidelberg texted me, not one of them could even ride a roller coaster. They're all five, four. So the fact I'm standing up there and I'm, like, looking down, I was mogging the off them. Now, when it came to brain power, I wasn't exactly there. I just don't get how quick it can go. Like, that is cool. You stopped and thought about it as if you had, like five minutes to
Kyle
think about the question.
Brandon
You were like, let me think.
Jay
It looks like I Was there.
Brandon
Anything even on the tip of your tongue? Because I. I watched it slow down. I didn't see anything forming.
Ben Mintz
Can we inform people what the question was?
Jay
That's what I was just going to go into this because, Nick, that's a great question. And my answer is there was nothing.
Danny
Problem.
Jay
Here's the problem. And. And I, a bft, had my back. He sent me a nice text. He's one of the good guys at the company. The question itself, like, what does a player have that a regular guy doesn't
Eddie
like?
Jay
Yeah, I don't know why I pressed it, but I, like, I still don't even really get the question. I get the question, but at the time, I'm like, wait, what? Like player sports girls, and boom, the portnoy look. So no Nick.
Whitney
Yeah.
Jay
Long, long answer. Nothing. I had nothing.
Big Cat
I had your back wit. I sent you the. The Jared Allen text that. It's happened before.
Jay
Well, funny enough, and I'm glad that we're bringing this up now with all you yak guys, Keith Yandel received a text from Wayne Gretzky. Oh, Wayne Gretzky. Has ever heard of him? Mince. You know who Wayne Gretzky is?
Danny
The great one.
Jay
He's the great one. And what he said was, feel bad for wit. What a great guy he is. Love the time I get to spend with him. That's why I've never gone on Family Feud. Oh, I would never put myself in that situation. I know how he feels. So if I'm in the same boat as Wayne Gretzky now, unfortunately, I went on the show and he knew never to do it, to look the way I Did.
Big Cat
Yep.
Jay
I. I'll take that text and ride it all the way into the sunset knowing that number 99 and me are like this.
Big Cat
I sent you. I sent you the. Jared Allen when he. In the playoffs, he said the. The quote was, the lights were brighter than expected. That's exactly what happened to you.
Ben Mintz
I thought that was an NBA guy who said.
Big Cat
Yeah, it's NBA guy.
Donnie
Yeah.
Eddie
Yeah.
Jay
Oh, I thought Jared Allen was the guy from the Vikings that used to.
Big Cat
There is a Jared. No.
Kyle
Christ.
Big Cat
This is what you get with these guys. Hey, before we go, we. Biz. We actually brought up something earlier on the show that maybe this is a Chiclets Yak crossover thing we could figure out.
Ben Mintz
Okay.
Big Cat
We gotta find a home for the Wheeling Nailers. They don't have a protein.
Jay
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. We own another team, boys.
Ben Mintz
Yeah. This is a conflict of interest. I know that.
Nick
So.
Ben Mintz
So Nick and kb Were. Were you guys there, like, helping try to, like, save the team? I saw you guys, like, in a photo there, like, last week.
Brandon
Yeah, I was there this past weekend trying to save the team.
Jay
How'd that go?
Brandon
I.
Kyle
Still not.
Brandon
I did more damage than good.
Ben Mintz
I saw you guys were playing, like, bocce ball.
Brandon
Yeah, yeah.
Ben Mintz
To save the team.
Brandon
No, no, that was for the Italian festival. Biz.
Mark
You.
Eddie
You.
Brandon
You've been to the Italian festival?
Jay
Oh, the uncooked pizza.
Brandon
Yeah, that was a buffet for you biz. You anything.
Ben Mintz
I don't. I think Moondog is.
Stephen
He's.
Brandon
He's dead.
Nick
The city's devastated, though.
Big Cat
We gotta find. Can we do something? So, wait, you guys own a compete. Who do you guys own?
Ben Mintz
We're with the Greensboro Gargoyles.
Jay
Affiliate of the Stanley cup champion. Carol. We. We got it. We would have had our name on the cup, But Dundon put 15 hits on there.
Big Cat
Put his dog. Yeah, yeah, he's got his masseuse.
Ben Mintz
He's got everybody on there.
Big Cat
All right, so what do we do? We gotta save the Nailers.
Nick
So what can we do? Is it. Can you buy it? Can somebody here.
Ben Mintz
It's funny, because you're in the echl, because it's the third league down, you're actually allowed to own up to three teams in the league.
Big Cat
Let's do it.
Brandon
Well, wait, the. The guys that own the Everblades said that it was, like, a conflict of interest.
Jay
They already own, I think, five or six.
Brandon
Oh, do they have.
Ben Mintz
Yeah, they probably already. Yeah, they probably already.
Jay
Isn't that our group? Isn't that the Zoya group? They might own them. Yeah, Hey, G saying in the chat the Yak should buy the Wheeling.
Ben Mintz
Yeah, why don't you guys dan your
Jay
money bags over there?
Nick
This is nothing to you, Sunset.
Big Cat
I can do it. Well, I just did buy the Taylor Swift chair. You guys should see this chair. It's unreal.
Ben Mintz
What. What's the Taylor Swift chair?
Big Cat
She sat in a chair for a Cavs game and I bought it. See it?
Jay
What you. Would that run you?
Big Cat
I'm not gonna. I. I will not say.
Jay
Why is no one sitting in it?
Kyle
Well, this is Taylor Swift.
Big Cat
Taylor Swift's chair, Yans.
Jay
Oh, or Minty. When he needs to get his ankle up. You should give him that chair.
Big Cat
It sounds like a shot at Mincy.
Jay
What do you mean a shot? I'm saying when he needs to get his ankle up. There are no shots at M. Now connected forever.
Kyle
You've done nothing. Shots at Min.
Mark
Get his ass, Mitzy.
Ben Mintz
What if the Yak listen to you?
Jay
You're the meanest guy in that office.
Kyle
I'm not a mean guy. Me and Mints are friends.
Big Cat
What if.
Ben Mintz
What if we did a 50 50? Considering Big Cat loves the 5050 draw so much.
Eddie
Yeah.
Ben Mintz
Would go to buying the wheeling biz.
Nick
What's like a ballpark cost, do you think?
Jay
That's a great question.
Ben Mintz
I. I would ass. I don't know. It's got a lot of history there.
Danny
Yes, you.
Big Cat
Your history's there. That's why we gotta like.
Brandon
I. I used typically around 10 million for the cost.
Big Cat
I'm out.
Danny
I'm out.
Brandon
Yeah, they're gone.
Danny
I'm out.
Brandon
They're done.
Nick
All right.
Big Cat
Okay. Well, rip the Wheeling Nailers and the
Nick
whole city of Wheel.
Brandon
Yep, it's done.
Nick
Ghost town.
Ben Mintz
It's sad because they're probably going to lose their team. And when we were there doing that. That Echl documentary, when I ended up getting the key to the city, I lost the key to the city.
Big Cat
I lost it.
Eddie
I lost it.
Big Cat
Jesus.
Jay
Birthday party.
Big Cat
All right, well, thank you. Thank you boys for having us on wit. Stay strong. The Whitney freeze and took flag. I said it right when Dave told me what happened.
Jay
Dave is the worst teammate. He's such a bad teammate. Such a bad guy. Like to if that happened to somebody else right away. And even Jersey Jerry came up. It's all right. It's all right. We were. He's just a. He's the worst teammate in the world. So the fact that I had to play with him, I knew. I knew if something went wrong, it's only. You're going to get Support from the guy. He's a complete. When they were running the credits at the end. Yeah, you could just see you and
Big Cat
Dave like this and stuff.
Jay
We were. We were arguing. I was dead wrong in that argument as well, because I kept saying it didn't matter. The guy across the bad flag, he didn't get it either. Went back, Rico got something. So I was like, we got it. But he's like, no, dummy. You need the top answer. Notice how they get to go after us And Rico's answer. What was Rico's answer? It was something kind of brutal, but he had one at least. And then I think the next. The next answer from the flags probably pop a flag that old grandfather said, like broads.
Kyle
He was unbelievable, that guy.
Jay
Yeah, he was unbelievable. Awesome.
Big Cat
All right, well, thank you, boys. Everyone tune into Chiclets the. The full show. All right, we'll talk to you.
Whitney
Okay.
Jay
See ya, guys.
Big Cat
See you guys.
Mark
See you, boys.
Big Cat
They're the best fencey you had.
Ben Mintz
Yeah.
Danny
I got my family.
Big Cat
This better go better.
Mark
Yeah, that's a bad appetizer.
Danny
This one's gonna go better.
Mark
What's about to come?
Brandon
After scoring zero and Dave and Whitney
Big Cat
just yelling at each other, Jerry got
Kyle
real close to just grabbing his dick.
Mincy
Huh?
Kate
He did.
Big Cat
All right, you ready, Ben?
Danny
I'm ready.
Kyle
You gotta let this one.
Danny
I will.
Nick
Don't make it seem like an act.
Danny
No, this isn't an act. I'm not mad about this one. All right? So obviously I have to take a lot of crap at this company, and I get it, it's well founded, but I don't have to take crap from everybody. And I've been holding this in for a few months because it's just been blowing it off. Blowing it off. I got pissed when this person brought me and smokes up when he signed a new contract and said. Said he deserves more. Whatever. I would never. Look, I've been nothing but nice to this guy for a couple of years, and he comes in with a bad attitude every single day. He thinks the smartest guy in the room, he's not good on camera. And then he. And he takes shots. Recently I saw a macrodosing clip that triggered me where it was like, who's empty fodder? And he's like, mitts's content is empty fodder. What the hell is his content? Big T, you've been relevant in this company. One time in my six years is once you had a golf shot off Madeline's privates. That's it.
Big Cat
And not just Rico threw A canoe.
Danny
Okay. And when. Rico, I'm sorry. Yeah, but the point is, like, I've never been anything but nice to this guy. He takes all these passive aggressive shots of me. Like I get. I'm low hanging fruit, but what the hell is he done? And he's not good on camera, as Dave Portnoy has said many times. So why the hell is he coming at me?
Big Cat
Danny, will you go get him?
Jay
Yeah.
Danny
Come at me. Like, I don't understand why he feels like he. At all.
Brandon
So you've been harboring this for months?
Danny
Yeah, I mean, well, he just having. I've ignored all kinds of stuff. But when he came at me on the contract thing, like, that's crazy. Like, I mean, he's a hell of a bonker.
Mark
What was the. What's the contract contest context for those?
Danny
No, he just said a bunch. Like when he was signing, he talked a bunch of. About Nikki Smokes and me. Yeah, we don't do anything. But I'll tell you that he can say whatever. We're relevant. We're relevant day to day. He's not.
Mark
He said he deserves more.
Jay
More? Yeah.
Big Cat
Dave was like, what are you thinking? And he's like, well, these guys.
Danny
Yeah, but I mean, we're relevant day to day.
Brandon
Like, you never want to compare. And contract negotiation.
Jay
No.
Danny
Why? Like, but I've never been anything but nice to this guy. And, and he comes out, his attitude's bad every day. He's not. And, and he's the smartest guy in the room.
Nick
I mean, how is your relationship off content?
Danny
We're not friends, but like we're, you know, with the head nods in the hallway. But like, I never took any shots at him and he felt like he could just take shots of me.
Nick
What are some. Aside from the contract thing, is there anything more recent?
Danny
I got triggered by a segment this came from that Brandon was on the other day where. Oh yeah, on macrodosing. And Brandon actually kind of made it funny. And compare me to Forrest Gump kinda. But he, but he, he just said I was empty fodder for content. And I'm like, who? What the hell do you do?
Mark
Watch this clip.
Whitney
If you had to attribute a person at barstool to this description, let me know who you'd pick.
Kyle
Sure.
Whitney
Disposable fodder for early defense and central control with the unique ability to promote into a queen upon reaching the eighth rank.
Kyle
Danny Conrad. Oh, that's fascinating. Okay.
Whitney
I said that's Ben Mints disposable fodder who can ascend to a higher plane.
Kyle
At what point has he ever shown the ability to ascend to a higher
Whitney
plane when he accidentally stumbles into funny content?
Big Cat
You know, that he's reached some high planes.
Whitney
He's, he's typically disposable.
Big Cat
You got called out.
Nick
Yeah. Big time.
Brandon
At a high pitch.
Danny
Yeah.
Kyle
You have been called. It gets higher and higher.
Big Cat
Yeah. You got called out.
Kate
Call out.
Kyle
Yeah.
Mark
Hard.
Ben Mintz
Yeah.
Whitney
What in the world?
Big Cat
You just got called out.
Danny
I just don't. Why are you coming at me like I've been nothing but nice to you for a couple years?
Whitney
What have I come at you about?
Danny
Just call me disposable fodder. You talk about me and Smokes during your conversation.
Whitney
Oh, that, that chess thing.
Danny
Just that I, I got triggered by this macrodosing clip when you're just like, oh, he's disposable. Like. But I mean, even if you think that, like, I've never.
Whitney
I was reading the Google description of chess pieces, okay. And it said one was pft. Had asked to make a, an allusion to barstool personalities. And it said disposable fodder for whatever
Kyle
the,
Whitney
Whatever it was. I was like, yeah, mints. And we were making a joke. I, I apologize if that. Okay.
Danny
I guess I didn't get the con.
Whitney
I feel like far worse is said about you on this show.
Danny
I didn't get the context. No. But I was more mad about you calling Smokes and me out about the contract stuff because I never would do that to anyone when it comes.
Whitney
Well, that wasn't necessarily. Well, this was a year ago. And like, to rehash it, but that was, Wasn't calling you out about anything.
Danny
Yeah, but I would never. When I contract stuff, I would never mention anybody else ever. When it comes to contracts.
Whitney
You would never like, then what are you comparing the worth of your labor to?
Danny
I, I just don't feel like that's a spot to crap on other people.
Whitney
It's not crapping. It's. It's. I mean, that's how stuff goes.
Danny
I just. When you're dealing with your ball. I don't know, I just thought that was, like, disrespectful. I mean, we have different roles. I get that, but, like, I just don't understand why. I feel like you're just passive aggressive taking shots at me and that's.
Whitney
I, I, I don't.
Big Cat
Do you like Ben Mintz?
Whitney
I don't dislike Ben.
Danny
I don't dislike. I don't dislike him either.
Big Cat
Don't like each other.
Danny
Don't like we're not good friends. I mean, we get it's head nods in the hallway, but we say, what's up?
Whitney
Yeah.
Kyle
We don't. Like, he's constantly taking shots at you, man.
Whitney
Yeah, that's. That's flagrantly inaccurate, but, yeah. That was not like. I feel like you love these guys. They say way worse every day.
Danny
Oh, they do. But I have to take crap from them. That's a necessary evil. I don't have to take you.
Whitney
Right?
Nick
Yes.
Whitney
Yeah.
Big Cat
Like, I can call him a pathetic loser.
Kyle
Yeah, sure.
Danny
Definitely.
Kyle
Yeah. Hear what I called him? Check out the Barrett sports media. Where'd you go? The conference last year.
Stephen
Oh, yeah?
Mincy
Yeah.
Jay
Yeah.
Brandon
What did he call you?
Big Cat
You fat?
Danny
Yeah.
Kyle
And I didn't even call him that.
Whitney
Right.
Danny
The context was there.
Whitney
Yeah, I. I guess I'm just very confused. I don't. It was not.
Kyle
It's because you keep calling. It's because you keep taking shots at him for no reason.
Whitney
Right.
Big Cat
He's not gonna take anymore.
Ben Mintz
The.
Whitney
The one time. Yeah. I guess. If he doesn't, like, done taking. What does.
Kyle
Notable fodder.
Whitney
What does not having to take it incur upon myself because you've been giving him.
Big Cat
He's not taking it.
Danny
Name.
Whitney
No. I know. So what does that mean for me?
Kyle
Means you better not give him a name.
Big Cat
Problems. Right.
Danny
I mean, I just don't. Okay, I understand, but I. I just didn't get it.
Kyle
I know.
Danny
I just.
Whitney
When Danny, like, I was stunned, like, this is nwo.
Danny
Look, I just didn't. The contract thing, I didn't get. And then I just feel like. I feel like you come in with, like, this, like, a little, like, nobody likes the smartest guy in the room thing, and I feel like your attitude, like you're not the most.
Whitney
This is. This is from one clip that was.
Danny
No, no, this is. It's been built up.
Brandon
It's been bubble.
Whitney
I guess. I guess the. The stunning part to me was, like, you talk to me all the time.
Danny
I agree. I always say, what's up? Because that was why. That was why I didn't understand why you. Well, you coming at me.
Whitney
You just said you've had, like, an underlying hatred.
Danny
It's only. It's only been since.
Big Cat
Go big T. Do you think you're smarter than Ben Mintz?
Whitney
Yes.
Big Cat
That's bullshit.
Danny
We're not. It's not a battle wits. It's. It's the smartest guy in the room thing. I feel like you. You, like, look down on me. I feel this Vibe.
Whitney
I. I don't agree with that.
Nick
Okay, well, who's someone that you would say, like, doesn't look down on you and, like, treats you with the utmost respect?
Danny
Nick Torani.
Mark
Wow.
Brandon
I make fun of mints all the time.
Danny
Yeah, but you treat. But in a respectful way.
Mark
I have.
Danny
He.
Nick
It is respectful. Yeah.
Brandon
Ben and I are friends.
Nick
Cutting, but respectful. That's true. Yeah.
Danny
Shout out. Annika always rides.
Brandon
Ben and I are friends, but I make fun of mints all the time.
Whitney
That's what I don't.
Nick
Buddy.
Brandon
Buddy. That was the wrong answer. Yeah, but Annika.
Mark
Say, Annika.
Danny
Oh, yeah. Comes in here and rides for me.
Mark
I don't know how dick pulls it off.
Danny
That was wild. Yeah.
Mark
I just say while we're on the top, Nick does this with chef Donnie as well.
Mincy
I don't.
Nick
He's impervious.
Kyle
Ain't no way with Brandon.
Big Cat
Every day.
Kate
Nick.
Mark
Every time Nick and Donnie are on air together, he's. He's making Donnie to look like a fool. Donnie hasn't picked up on it even a little bit. He loves Nick. I say, hi, Donnie, and Donnie's like, I see what you're trying to. Oh, I have no idea how Nick pulls.
Big Cat
I. I've said some things.
Brandon
I've said some things that I felt pure, I felt guilty for.
Danny
Yeah, but you do it with one. No.
Brandon
Yeah, I guess you're right. Vince and I are friends, though, and,
Kyle
man, it's me and you. Me and you get along behind the scenes.
Danny
Definitely.
Kyle
Yeah, definitely.
Danny
I have nothing but respect.
Kyle
Yeah. And I got nothing. Respect for you.
Big Cat
I say, like, terrible things to you, but, you know, I mean it.
Kyle
Jesus Christ.
Donnie
What?
Danny
You invited me to come up here to work, and you haven't fired me, so that shows love.
Eddie
True.
Danny
You know, You. Me to come up here.
Kyle
You're the one who said the least about it.
Whitney
It's. I'm. I'm. I. When Danny came in there, I could not believe what he was telling.
Big Cat
Got called out, bro.
Danny
I think it was the guys.
Big Cat
You got called out.
Danny
Yeah.
Jay
And that's.
Whitney
That's fine.
Ben Mintz
Yeah.
Whitney
If you. If you harbor that, there's nothing I can do about that. That, you know, that's fine.
Big Cat
You got NWO Called out.
Danny
Yeah.
Big Cat
It's the hardest. Hardest call out.
Danny
Happy birthday, Nikki smokes. NWO time.

Whitney
Don't get side that. Oh, I was cool five minutes ago.
Kyle
So you're not cool now?
Whitney

How long does it take for you to decide if you're cool?
Whitney
I mean, we've. We've been recording all day. Give me. Give me 20.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Brandon
Okay.
Big Cat

Big Cat
Good. Not average.
Whitney
It's been an eventful day.
Big Cat
Not average.
Danny
What else happened today?
Brandon
Can't talk.
Whitney
Well, we don't want to.
Big Cat
Not average. You're good.
Whitney
It's. It's just been eventful. It's not necessarily a departure from average in that sense. It's just a lot.
Big Cat
Good day? Yeah. Yeah.
Kyle
Okay.
Whitney
It's good to be busy.
Ben Mintz
All right.
Mark
You dressed everything you wanted to address Minzy?
Kyle
Yeah.
Danny
Yeah, that was it.
Mark
Yeah, that was. All right.
Whitney
Good deal.
Kyle
All right.
Big Cat
Thanks, Vincy.
Kate
Thanks.
Big Cat
Thanks, Big T. Appreciate it.
Mark
Yeah, it wasn't.
Nick
That was good together a little bit.
Kyle
Oh, he's walk out. I don't think he's gonna be cool.
Brandon
No, he needs 20. He needs 20. We cannot decide.
Kyle
He's gonna go stew on this.
Nick
I don't think he heard everything too.
Kyle
Mitzi said a lot of about him
Danny
before he got in the room.
Kyle
I think you're gonna get blogged about tonight.
Big Cat
All right, Mincy.
Kyle
See you, buddy.
Brandon
This is good, though.
Nick
Yep.
Big Cat
This is okay. Oh, make sure you make sure you really grown so we know you're hurt.
Eddie
Yeah.
Mark
I think there was a misunderstanding and now there's going to be an actual.
Mincy
Yeah, yeah.
Mark
An actual. Yes. It went from.
Kate
Is this what's supposed to be out?
Kyle
So far, Mincy held out pretty good against Big T, but against Wit, he folded.
Big Cat
No, he's over two on calling out. He's over two. He doesn't. He's not a call out.
Brandon
Is Mincy going to be on Netflix?
Mincy
Yeah.
Brandon
Oh, my God.
Big Cat
That's a problem.
Brandon
Probably alert someone him next to that logo.
Big Cat
Oh, for two on call out.
Mark
Over two.
Ben Mintz
Over two.
Kyle
Is he going to the gambling cave? Because he's taking thinking. No, he's not. He's chasing Aryan down. He doesn't.
Brandon
Yeah, he wants to dab up.
Mark
How the do you pull this off, Nick?
Brandon
Miny.
Ben Mintz
I don't.
Brandon
I'm not even joking. I've gone to confession over things. I'm not joking. @DePaul.
Kyle
You've said things that I'm. I'm like, whoa, too far. Yeah.
Nick
Truly cutting.
Brandon
Yeah, that Was. He should not have said me. He should not have said me.
Big Cat
Me.
Brandon
But Mince and I are.
Nick
You are good. Great to him. We're.
Kyle
We're.
Mark
We're.
Brandon
We're friends and.
Nick
Yeah.
Kate
You're a good listener to everybody here.
Brandon
I feel like I try.
Nick
It goes a long way.
Kate
Yeah.
Nick
It gives you leeway, as it should.
Brandon
No, but it shouldn't with Ben. It shouldn't with Chef.
Mark
Is it just that simple that you'll just sit there and listen to m. Well, it'll just corner you up
Big Cat
and I. This is a compliment, Nick, because you do this and it's good for content. But they don't understand that. He will listen, but then he will tell us.
Brandon
I don't tell everything.
Big Cat
Yeah, you should. And I. I should be telling us.
Brandon
I run by the things that I'm about to tell.
Big Cat
You should tell everything. You should start telling.
Brandon
I will be like, can I say this? No, there's no. I can't say the things I know. I can't.
Danny
Yeah.
Big Cat
Big T is definitely gonna be pissed.
Mark
He's gonna be pissed. Yeah. Now he's actually gonna say some heinous About Mincy.
Danny
Yeah.
Mark
He's gonna now be actually upset for the.
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Kyle
The cycle has started.
Mark
Away we go.
Brandon
This is a good one, too. Is a good clash.
Big Cat
Yeah. What do you think, Brandon? Cuz those are your two best friends in the office.
Kyle
They are. And I hate to see my Southern brothers fighting like this, but at the same time, I know that they need to have it out. They need to get back, holler at
Big Cat
each other a little bit.
Stephen
Yeah.
Kyle
I'm not sure why he told me he waited for me to get off the yak, and he pulled me to the side and wanted me to know that he had problems with Big T. Because you're.
Brandon
You make fun of Mince and you're friends with him too.
Kyle
Yeah. Yeah. I will say legitimately, Ben Mintz been here several years. If somebody used my name in the contract negotiations and said, well, if Brandon makes this, I better make that. Obviously, I. Wait a goddamn minute.
Big Cat
I do disagree with Big T on that.
Kyle
You try to use my name to better yourself. Like, why don't you just.
Big Cat
You talk about yourself? You talk about what you bring to the company, not what someone else does.
Kyle
But in Big T's defense, that was a year ago. It was a long time ago. It's a long time to harbor something for Ben Metz. Ben Mintz should have been like, Brandon.
Brandon
If somebody did that and said, your name, Brandon makes 1.2 I should make this.
Kate
You.
Brandon
You would harbor that for the rest of time?
Kyle
Yes. Correct.
Brandon
Okay. Yes, I think we all would.
Kyle
Yeah. You just said hypothetically, I'm harboring it right now. Yeah, I don't like it, but you know, Ben let it. Been a nice guy at his core. Ish. And he. He let it. He let it fester, let it simmer. Throw in the broken ankle and his
Big Cat
computer screen is on right now.
Kyle
Yeah, under a. Under a hoodie.
Big Cat
Insane.
Kyle
Under. Under. By the way, a camp barstool hoodie. Which, if we didn't have camp barstool, what would he wear?
Brandon
He'd be freezing.
Eddie
Nothing.
Nick
Here we go. He couldn't find the button on the monitor.
Mark
So does he just think everyone with the computer. That's how they do it.
Brandon
I think at the end of the
Mark
night here, all across the world, everybody just let me find my hoodie place.
Brandon
My hoodies.
Kyle
I should sell Ben. Ben.
Brandon
Ben mince computer hoodies. What should they say on it? Just like, there's not porn going on. No porn under this,
Danny
man.
Big Cat
All right, well, good. Yeah, that was a chaotic last 30 minutes.
Kyle
Yeah, we touched a lot of things there.
Big Cat
Sure did.
Kyle
Yeah, we did.
Nick
That was weirdly human of Ben.
Kyle
Yeah, it was.
Nick
It wasn't dog to feel like that.
Kate
Oh, I think that's a good thing that he.
Nick
He's like.
Brandon
He's growing up.
Big Cat
All it took was a broken foot. A broken foot got him.
Brandon
He's like, he's evolving and maturing and growing right before our eyes. It's like it's. They. They always say it'll happen fast and you never believe it.
Kyle
He's almost ready to go out.
Brandon
Like your eyes. 42 years back.
Nick
A fresh faced 42.
Big Cat
Big day for him. All right, let's spin the wheel, TJ.
Donnie
Anyway, I'm using my 1 Yak of the Year card to promote my new show.
Brandon
You have on twice a week.
Big Cat
And you also. Donnie asked me if he could come on. I was like, yeah, dude, your yak get of the year 2025. You have CARPL a year.
Donnie
No, I said my card. I'm punching my card. Usually I. Usually you ask me the guys to come on this time. I've asked to come on myself,
Kyle
Babe.
Mincy
Can I come on myself?
Kyle
No.
Mark
I love him so much.
Donnie
Yeah. There they are.
Brandon
Oh, he did have them all. Oh, Eddie owes this guy an apology. Wait, does he have lemon meringa or whatever?
Kate
He said he didn't have.
Big Cat
I gotta. I gotta be honest. If I see a guy in that hat that's exactly where you go for meth. Yeah, like that's dumpling.
Brandon
A fairy.
Big Cat
Ridiculous hat.
Brandon
Edo's an apology.
Big Cat

Pretty good hats.

This lively episode of The Yak balances classic Barstool banter, office antics, and absurd plans for golf stardom, with the crew exploring whether KB and Brandon have what it takes to become golf’s next internet sensation. The episode highlights the unique group dynamic that makes The Yak so much fun, from their sports challenges to deeply unserious arguments, oddball confessions, and a cathartic on-air confrontation between Ben Mintz and Big T.

This was classic Yak: a sprawling, chaotic, and deeply self-aware podcast session that juggled sports-adjacent antics, office feuds (both playful and sincere), and absurd hypotheticals. The episode manages to play up controversy (Mintz vs. Big T), bring office bits to life (the golf challenge, the Taylor Swift chair), and land heartfelt (if bizarre) confessions. The Yak once again nails what makes it special: friends busting each other’s chops, trying new bits, and turning even the most mundane topics (menus, fruit, childhood TV) into group therapy and running gags.
10/10 for fans of unstructured, personality-driven podcasting and Barstool’s “just guys being dudes” energy.
