Episode Overview

This episode of The Yak brings together the Barstool Sports crew (Big Cat, Brandon Walker, Steven Cheah, KB, Nick, Rone, Lil Sas, Kate, Emma, Fitz, Dana, Greg, Deutsch, and others) for their trademark, free-wheeling roundtable. The main theme centers on the aftermath of Bam Adebayo’s explosive 83-point NBA game, wild debates about sports fan culture, and an extended, hilarious argument about whether it’s possible—or even theoretically easier—to hit a 100MPH fastball while blindfolded.

Other highlights include a deep dive into “Green Greg’s” burgeoning Barstool career, more wild sports hypotheticals, March Madness anticipation, news from the Barstool world, and a preview of upcoming “Yak” content and antics.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Sports Debates: Bam Adebayo's 83-Point Game and Kobe Fan Reactions

• The show opens with heated takes about Bam Adebayo’s historic 83-point night, with Brandon and Dana discussing basketball scoring records, the history of teams helping players chase big numbers, and the social media wars between Kobe and LeBron stans.
• Dana: “You can't say good game about any basketball player without [Kobe fans] just coming.” [03:01]
• The crew notes how, historically, teams have often prioritized players’ scoring achievements (e.g., Wilt Chamberlain, David Robinson).
• Nostalgia and online haters: Brandon and Dana discuss how sports nostalgia, social media algorithms, and the need to “protect legacies” shape fans' perceptions.
• Dana on Kobe’s legacy: “Where he is is an incredible spot in basketball history… but they kind of lie… say he should be up there with LeBron and Michael, and he shouldn’t.” [10:17]

2. Can Cheah Hit a 100 MPH Fastball Blindfolded?

• The core comedic segment: Steven Cheah posits (with baffling seriousness) that he, as a non-baseball player, might have a better shot at hitting a 100MPH fastball blindfolded—arguing that not seeing the pitch would let him “time it up” at random.
• Ridicule ensues. Brandon: “That’s the worst question you’ve ever asked.” [18:14]
• This escalates to live field testing: Cheah is given a bat and has to swing blindfolded at wiffle balls, to predictably embarrassing but hilarious results.
• Notable moment: Cheah contacting real MLB players (Austin Hedges, Gunner Henderson, Hosmer) for their opinion—and all adamantly agree his theory is nonsense.
  • Gunner Henderson: “No, because I've tried hitting with closing my eyes before, and it is very scary and even harder.” [65:42]
• Plans are set to take Cheah to a batting cage to properly test the theory.

3. Barstool Office Life: Debuts, Beefs, and "Green Greg"

• Extended “welcome to Barstool” segment with new hire Greg, forever known as “Green Greg,” discussing his recent move, Barstool's internal culture, and fun personalities.
  • Greg on being recognized: “He said ‘I don’t appreciate you for who you are, but I like you for what you are.’” [79:34]
• Beefs and Barstool machinations: Discussions on team-building outings, beer spas, competitive drinking, and the perpetual quest to start fun, meaningless drama.
• Deutsch describes his apartment and “boneless couch” adventures; banter about furniture, living the Barstool lifestyle, and hopes of “making it.”

4. March Madness & Sports Office Shenanigans

• Anticipation for March Madness; mentions of bracket pools and “Bracket Busters.”
• Internal office competitions (Juggernauts league, etc.).
• Banter about favorite sports, nostalgia for classic NBA, favorite food at stadiums, and quirky office routines (collecting souvenir cups, Chinese workouts).

5. Absurd Hypotheticals and Off-Topic Antics

• A recurring theme: unhinged would-you-rather sports scenarios (e.g., “Is it easier to win the Indy 500 without a car?” [19:09]) and jokes about sports logic.
• “Beer spa” discussion: Deutsch preparing for a day of soaking in beer, possibly drinking it, and joking about the line between beer consumption and hygiene.

6. Office Ad Reads and Content Plugs (skipping actual ads as per instructions)

• Frequent transitions in and out of humorous promos or “housekeeping”—used as an opportunity to riff on Barstool culture and highlight personalities.
• Teases for upcoming "Yak" events: the World Baseball “Yug-Off”, halftime stunts, anthem singers, and more.

Tone and Vibe

Throughout, the episode maintains the trademark Yak blend of sports-obsessed, irreverent, and intentionally absurd humor. The crew’s chemistry creates an engaging, unpredictable rhythm—one segment may feature a serious sports culture rant, immediately followed by total nonsense about blindfolded baseball or beer spas.

The tone is chaotic but warm, heavy on inside jokes, frequent digressions, and fast-paced banter, with every host happily riffing on the others’ worst takes. Listeners can expect laughter, good-natured roasting, and moments of sports nerdery mixed with affectionate Barstool office gossip.

---

Summary Takeaways

• Sports culture’s absurdities—and its fierce online defenders—are front and center, as is Yak’s willingness to poke fun at its own nerdiest debates.
• Cheah’s confidence in unhinged hypotheticals produces the episode’s comedic high-point, illustrated by the group’s live attempts to “science” his misguided theory.
• Green Greg’s emergence as a full character and office fixture receives a warm, funny welcome.
• Throughout, the episode is a lively snapshot of the Barstool universe—marked by high-energy sports talk, in-jokes, and a readiness to turn every controversy into an event.

Hey, guys, it's Francis. Look, life moves fast. Dating is a tough thing to find time for and to be intentional about. At least so I thought until I found the league. I've found that the people I've met on the league are people I really have a lot more in common with than the people you typically find when you're just aimlessly swiping and scrolling on other dating apps instead of endless searching. I get a curated batch of profiles each day. There's less noise, less back and forth, less flakiness. These are just people I'd actually want to meet, have a conversation with, have a meal with, spend real time with, create that meaningful connection.

Ready to drink cans? I think you get 10x the entries in the golden mug, so go buy right now. Stel coffee dot com. How's everyone doing? Great. Nervous for Green Greg.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

What happened to our chairs?

[Dana]

What happened?

[Brandon]

Feel awake? I'm moved up.

[Gunner]

They are in a different arc. It seems.

[Brandon]

Wider arc.

[Dana]

I feel same.

[Brandon]

Forward.

[Dana]

You feel? You feel same? No, no, I think you're. I think we're same.

[Brandon]

Okay. Wait.

[TJ]

Feel blessed.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Dana]

All right. My badge is right? Yep. I bought you as a gift. And still.

[Brandon]

Hey, before we do Green Greg, anyone got any takes about bam last night?

[Dana]

Listen, man.

[Brandon]

Wait, what?

[Dana]

When? When? When I get to going, man, I get to going.

[Brandon]

Did you. Did it take you all the way till March 11, 2026 on this green earth to realize the Kobe fans are pretty crazy.

[Dana]

No, I just have never verbalized it.

[Brandon]

They're.

[Dana]

They. They're psychotic. They're insane. Well, yeah, I deal with college football fans.

[Brandon]

You know, Kobe fans are actually crazier than college football.

[Dana]

Yeah, like. Like, you can't. You can't say good game about any basketball player without them just coming.

[Brandon]

Yeah, well, you were tarnishing Kobe's legacy.

[Dana]

I was not. I was simply holding up a man that scored 83 points, which is a crazy Mickey Mouse. You know, the last five minutes were tough. They were. They were certainly attacking the points total there. And they got it. But.

[Brandon]

And the Wizards are a really good team.

[Dana]

But that has happened throughout the history of basketball. Teams have done this for players. They've done it time and time again. They did it for Wilt Chamberlain, who scored shot 63 times in that 100 point game. They did it for David Robinson, who needed 50 points to win the scoring title. He shot 48 times and scored 71 on the last day of the season. The spurs gave him the ball. They ran the ball up the court to him. This has happened since the beginning of time. Kobe took every single shot from the seven minute mark on. Players have done this forever. I'm sorry.

[TJ]

There's a fight going on out there, I think.

[Brandon]

Really?

[Gunner]

Scuttlebutt.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

I'm gonna go look what happened.

[TJ]

Be careful, Kate.

[Fitz]

We were.

[Dana]

We were. She's the worst one to Sam.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

I mean, the fight is irrelevant. Brandon was just telling us the history of basketball.

[Fitz]

Yeah. I was learning a lot.

[Brandon]

What other ones?

[Dana]

There's no fight at all.

[TJ]

There was like, a lot. There was a lot.

[Brandon]

I think Nick was trying to get us to be distracted from. What was it David Robinson.

[Fitz]

David Robinson scored a lot one time and.

[Dana]

Well, then why did you ask?

[Fitz]

Look at him. There he is.

[Dana]

You asked. There he is.

[TJ]

Oh, look at him charging.

[Chase]

Wow.

[Brandon]

Oh, wow.

[Emma]

I didn't even know that was him.

[Brandon]

That's it.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

No, when he came, when I saw him, I was like, oh, yeah, that is what you look like.

[Emma]

Perfect. Yeah.

[Fitz]

He came on mostly hoops this morning. At one point, he was trying to make a point and he said, I love March Madness more than anyone. Tate challenged that. Tate said, hang on, hang on, Titus. You're going to let him say that? I think Tate was saying that I would probably be the one that loves March Madness more than anyone. Greg was like, I don't know, man. And then we said, like, why do you like March mad? Like, state your case. And he goes, I love March Madness. Gotcha and at that point.

[TJ]

Yep.

[Dana]

I mean, say, then think about it like that.

[Fitz]

I love March.

[Brandon]

Yeah, he's right.

[Emma]

He get work done?

[Brandon]

Yeah, he did. I think he got a nose job.

[Dana]

Oh, wow.

[TJ]

Oh, there he is.

[Gunner]

That was.

[Emma]

It's got to be.

[Fitz]

He's tugging his dick, everybody.

[Dana]

Yeah, he's. He's. He's got.

[Brandon]

He's. He told me when I came in today, he's like, I'm just so, you know, not this is relevant, but I'm 12 inches soft.

[Dana]

He said that?

[Brandon]

Yeah, he said that to me.

[TJ]

Not that this is right.

[Brandon]

Yeah, he said, I'm 12 inches soft if you need anything from me. And I was like, thank you.

[Dana]

Yeah, by all means. Hellos.

[TJ]

Wow. Thank you, Greg.

[Brandon]

So just to put a bow on it, Brandon. We're good with Kobe fans.

[Dana]

We're fine. We're fine. I just. This world we've gotten to where where somebody does something great in sports, we have to immediately. The entire world has to hate on him. It's crazy. It's just exhausting.

[Brandon]

Aren't you doing the same thing, but other side?

[Dana]

No, I'm reacting to the hatred that bam got.

[Brandon]

Also, you got to realize the algorithm. If you click on one hate tweet, that's all you're going to see.

[Dana]

I know that. That I'm. I'm. I'm versed in hate, man. I've been trafficking in hate since I got here.

[TJ]

How many blocks did you send off last night?

[Dana]

Not that many. It never really came back at me that bad. Probably 30.

[Brandon]

Did you see the tweet of the night? Was the. Somehow Jason Tatum just gets ricochet shots all the time?

[Dana]

I didn't see a Tatum ricochet. Oh, yeah.

[Brandon]

So if. If this were Tatum, he would have checked himself out at 81 and texted Kobe.

[Dana]

I did see that.

[Brandon]

Jason Tatum is like the ultimate. Like, he just minds his own business and everyone just shits on him.

[TJ]

How would you rank this game?

[Emma]

Well, he did.

[Dana]

It wasn't as good as Kobe's 81, but still, it's. It's a remarkable accomplishment.

[Chase]

Hit 31 in the first quarter.

[Dana]

Yeah, it was. It was incredible how many stars.

[Fitz]

I just never.

[Phil]

Oh, yeah.

[Fitz]

Oh, yeah. On your.

[Dana]

Your rating system, as far as games go, it's. It's. It's hard to rate because it's made it kind of at the end, but NBA teams have been doing this since dawn of time, so like a three and a half.

[Brandon]

The big winner last night was Wilt.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Because you see how hard it is to get no, no, no, no.

[Brandon]

Because we did this stupid thing for when Kobe got the second most all time. Everyone did a conspiracy theory. Wilt didn't actually do it because they're like, we want Kobe to be number one.

[Greg]

Right.

[Brandon]

No one's going to do that for Ben.

[Dana]

No, no.

[Brandon]

Now Wilt is number one again, right? Keep like Bam out of Bio has the most points in a game in NBA history.

[Fitz]

No.

[Brandon]

So it's back to Will. See what I'm saying?

[Dana]

Yeah, yeah. But also the loser might be Will because I feel like. And Titus said this earlier, but I think this is going to trigger a wave of guys trying. Now they say Bam out of. If Bam out of Bio can score 83, I can score one on one. Now it might be an impossible. Might not be able to be done. But I would say in the last week when everybody's eliminated, so you know when. When there's half the league is just playing for whatever, you're going to see some guys go at it.

[Brandon]

Also, last night was mostly about campaign.

[Fitz]

Yeah. It was a campaign night in the NBA.

[Brandon]

Campaign.

[Fitz]

What I love about Brandon.

[Emma]

Yeah. 32.

[Brandon]

Yeah. And he was like, shout out, Bam. But like, he's not going to take my knife from me.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Emma]

He said that.

[Greg]

Yeah, yeah.

[Brandon]

Campaign is the best.

[Emma]

So.

[Brandon]

So Bam.

[Emma]

Adebayo is like. Like, he's pathetic.

[Dana]

No, no, no. He's a very good basketball player.

[Emma]

Like, what?

[Dana]

He's just not a score. He's not a score.

[Brandon]

He's a freezer merchant.

[Emma]

That's my takeaway.

[Deutsch]

Yeah.

[Emma]

This guy is a clown.

[Dana]

That's what you would think.

[Emma]

Why would he do that to the Wizard?

[Fitz]

What I love about you, Brandon, is just that I. You never know what's gonna set you off.

[Brandon]

But you got set up.

[Fitz]

As I'm monitoring Bam out of bios, climbing through the. The stacking up his points and going after Kobe, at no point did did I say to myself, oh, Brandon's gonna be shot out of a cannon.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Yeah. This is Mark.

[Dana]

I didn't go to bed.

[Fitz]

Oh, my God. If Bam breaks Kobe's mark, Brandon's gonna be fired up.

[Brandon]

Well, I thought.

[TJ]

I thought you'd still be celebrating getting Malik Willis.

[Fitz]

Yeah, right, right. I can't believe you even know knew that this happened. I thought you'd be on the forum. Dolphins fans dot com.

[Dana]

All right, all right, all right.

[Fitz]

Dolphinsfans dot com last night.

[TJ]

Yeah, I thought you're talking Dolphin big, Dolphins grand.

[Fitz]

A fin.

[Dana]

I don't know. I got fired up.

[Brandon]

I think there's something that has occurred in society at large. It's probably the Internet's fault. Things don't wow us anymore. They just don't. We're just. We can't be.

[Emma]

Too many things are happening.

[Brandon]

Yeah. We're all kind of in a state of, like, comatose, jaded. Like, oh, yeah, that's cool.

[Dana]

All right.

[Brandon]

What's this? You know, like, did things move so fast? I was thinking about, remember. Remember that old lady that got abducted in Arizona? What the fuck happened to her?

[Gunner]

Nobody. We moved on.

[TJ]

Really Gone nothing.

[Brandon]

Y' all know, Stop Talking about I, Mr.

[Dana]

Nostalgia. Oh, yeah, I missed her.

[Emma]

That was as massive.

[Brandon]

But it's just gone mystery. We just get bored after, like, two minutes. We're just like, oh, yeah.

[Emma]

On a mystery.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Dana]

I love the 80s. I love the 90s. I'm Mr. Nostalgia. I never want to grow up. I celebrate all that. But, like, there's this thing online where people. People of that age want to protect Michael Jordan and protect Kobe Bryant, and nobody knew. Can do anything because the entire league is trash and everybody's trash. Never beat Kobe. Kobe and Michael, they do it, too, but. But not as bad as Kobe fans, because Kobe fans are putting on by pretending he should be up there with LeBron and Michael, and he shouldn't. And where he is is an incredible spot in basketball history. He's, like, the seventh best player ever. That's remarkable. But they kind of lie, and they say he should be up there with LeBron, Michael, and he shouldn't.

[Brandon]

You really sound like a sports reporter, like a. Like a Lupica or a Mitch album when you say Michael.

[Dana]

I don't know why that's.

[Chase]

I know.

[Dana]

I can say Michael.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

No, I know. But it's like, you. I can visualize you.

[Greg]

Like, you.

[Brandon]

You went and, like, got the inside scoop about. But Michael's like, yeah, see, Michael.

[Dana]

Michael has. Right. Michael has an absolute army of online soldiers. Kobe has an army of online soldiers. But you don't have to go to war when A guy scores 83 points. Why don't we just look at it and say, wow, he scored 83 points.

[Fitz]

Now, to apply this to other. To things that you're nostalgic about. If someone said that, like, one of the sitcoms that's out right now, that one more Grammys than the Cosby Show. Grammys or Emmys or whatever the. Yeah. You think you would tip your cap and be like, congratulations to I don't even know.

[Emma]

Shit's creek.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Greatest comedy of all time.

[Brandon]

Shit's creek. So I Schitt's Creek. Like, I wouldn't be able to blows out Cosby.

[Fitz]

Yes.

[Brandon]

Cosby show is playing against plumbers and electricians.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[TJ]

Who were they airing?

[Dana]

Golden ages of sitcom.

[Brandon]

Oh, Cosby show was popular when there

[Dana]

was two TV shows. It literally resuscitated the sitcom. The sitcom was dead, and it brought it back. But I can't be vocal about the Cosby show because of certain things. So that's not a good example, because I can't.

[TJ]

That's a perfect example. You're comparing it to Kobe.

[Brandon]

Kobe, br.

[Fitz]

We have example.

[Emma]

Perfect example.

[Brandon]

Got a one for one analogy. Very hard to do in life.

[Dana]

All right, fair, fair. But I don't chase down people online saying that Schitt's Creek or Modern Family would.

[Brandon]

You would.

[Dana]

But I don't. If I would, I would. I don't. I don't.

[Brandon]

Wow. Well said.

[Dana]

Thanks.

[Brandon]

Do you say Michael again?

[Dana]

Because Michael Hayes.

[Brandon]

I don't know what it is.

[TJ]

Makes it sound like, you know.

[Brandon]

Yeah, I feel like he's. Like, he had. Like, he would go to the bar and like, you know, everybody says Michael.

[Fitz]

I know Michael.

[Dana]

Everybody says.

[Brandon]

A lot of people say mj, but I don't know something about the way you say Michael. I'm. It's getting me nostalgia because Michael.

[Fitz]

Micha.

[Dana]

Michael has Michael. Michael has these online fans that just can't let anybody else be happy. And Kobe has the same thing. But this is a new era of basketball and just people. And to me, Dan, it's the fucking people. It's the fucking people. The loudest people online are the ones that want to tell you they don't watch the NBA and the NBA is trash. Well, they're the same people that never watch the NBA. They just want to be performative and say the NBA is trash, and that's what they want to do. Yeah, but you.

[Brandon]

You. You just said it.

[Dana]

What you.

[Brandon]

You just said. You just said the whole point of like. Yeah, they're just being performative.

[Dana]

I know, I know, I know.

[Brandon]

If you had just clicked on one congratulatory tweet last night, you realize your entire experience online would have been different.

[Dana]

There weren't.

[Brandon]

That's how the.

[Fitz]

I also. It was. Did watch the NBA before the gather step. Yeah, before the gather stuff. We watched. We watched a lot of the NBA.

[Dana]

Well, that was back in the days of Michael.

[Fitz]

Yeah. Before the.

[Brandon]

It's really tickling me. I don't know.

[TJ]

Yeah.

[Emma]

Michael. I always forget that he's, like a real dude.

[Brandon]

He's not.

[Dana]

He's a mythological.

[Emma]

Yeah, he's like just.

[Dana]

He and Kobe are myths.

[Emma]

Chilling right now.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Chase]

Do you wish he went for more? He got taken out with like a minute.

[Dana]

No, I mean, I mean I listen because Wilt's not reachable. Right. He wasn't going to score 19 more or however many 18 more points in a minute. But like I was kind of. That team made a decision somewhere in the third quarter that God damn it, we're going to get this guy as many points as possible. And they went after it. And it's again, teams have done this throughout history and we act like they haven't. And I thought it was fine. I thought it was. It was good.

[Fitz]

When did you put your phone down for the final time Last night?

[Dana]

About midnight. And I woke up at 3:30 and I jumped out of bed.

[Fitz]

And you got right back into it. Jumped out and right back into the trench.

[Dana]

And then, and then Mark got here, went to the couch. Couldn't. Didn't sleep.

[Brandon]

Yeah, no, of course.

[Dana]

Sat up. Sat up. Just.

[Brandon]

Just know you can't sleep when you know the. When the Internet stands are at your gate.

[Dana]

You can't. You can't sleep when the Kobe fans are.

[Brandon]

Because surely you'll. You'll change their opinions.

[Dana]

Yeah. You'll change that. And then you go after the Michael people like you got to do. You got to get them all. And I. And then I have wub. I've been.

[Fitz]

Oh, wow.

[Dana]

I've been hot and bothered for a while. For a while.

[Brandon]

For a while.

[Dana]

But this is Yak. We don't talk sports on the Yak. Let's talk something else. Let's talk. Let's talk.

[Brandon]

Well, I mean when you're passionate about something, I want to hear it.

[Dana]

Well, I got it, man. Yeah, I got it. I'm cooking.

[Brandon]

Yeah. Feels good. We should. How many. If we. If next Juggernauts league season if we were like, all right, we gotta. We gotta try to break the record. We're gonna force feed the ball for

[Dana]

most losses in a row. No.

[Brandon]

How many points do you think he would score? I think 25.

[Emma]

25?

[TJ]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

You could.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Approach 30,

[Brandon]

foul them every time.

[Emma]

How did Adebayo's bum ass do that?

[Brandon]

I know. Bum.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Dana]

This is, this is the. One of the worst things that's come out of it, people. I know you said it in joke, but people are saying, oh, he shouldn't have done this. He's not good enough. Like.

[Brandon]

No, actually he's a.

[Dana]

He's a. He's a five Time. First team, all defensive players, a tremendous player. He's not a natural scorer, but last night he just caught lightning in a bottle. And they wrote. They wrote the hot hand lighting in

[Brandon]

a bottle being 43 free throw attempts.

[Dana]

And they were. Listen, fourth quarter was the fourth quarter and that was a little. They were really pushing the limits of what basketball is. But the first three quarters, they were legit. Legitimate fouls.

[Emma]

You think an average. You think you'd have a better chance of hitting a major league fastball or scoring 40 against the Wizards?

[Brandon]

40 against the Wizards.

[Dana]

Easy.

[Emma]

Probably 40.

[Brandon]

Easy.

[Emma]

It sounds easy.

[Brandon]

Dude, just feed me the ball.

[Chase]

It's a wizard.

[Dana]

Yes.

[Fitz]

Anyone could do, right?

[Emma]

YouTube vlog challenge, right? Against the Wizards.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

The only problem I'd have is cardio. Like, I'd probably only play like 15 minutes. But that's a 40 piece. Yeah, yeah. 15 minutes on the floor.

[Fitz]

You could. The modern Dan in the modern NBA when they don't play defense.

[Brandon]

Just gather stuff the way down the court.

[Fitz]

Gather stuff. Just gather step.

[Brandon]

It's a good question, Kyle.

[Dana]

Yeah, I actually.

[Brandon]

I love that question because it was so easy.

[Emma]

Yeah. It's 40 against the way.

[Brandon]

Yeah, right.

[Dana]

Sports are awesome.

[Chase]

Do you think it'd be easier to hit a major league fastball blindfolded if you had 100 attempts and you can just kind of.

[Emma]

Easier.

[TJ]

Easier what?

[Dana]

Than hitting one unblindful? Please.

[Emma]

Please don't.

[Dana]

No, don't.

[TJ]

I'd rather say.

[Brandon]

Don't say it. Are you gonna say unblindful?

[Emma]

Don't say unblindful.

[Chase]

With. Without a blindfold versus blindfold.

[Dana]

I feel like you're saying what? Would it be easier to close your eyes and hit a fastball if you.

[TJ]

If.

[Dana]

How would you know when he releases the ball?

[Fitz]

Jay, we're not even 20 minutes. It is 18 minutes.

[TJ]

Not today.

[Emma]

Shut it down.

[Fitz]

Anything? El. Else? Anybody got anything else?

[Emma]

I'm still like, rearranging my jeans.

[Brandon]

Just threw my first Lucy. That's. I can't be having my first loose.

[TJ]

Why would it be easier?

[Dana]

I need to know.

[TJ]

I need to know.

[Dana]

No, in what world? In what world?

[Brandon]

This is like.

[Chase]

You would just guess on the timing of it. Whereas if you saw the ball come out, you're dead.

[Brandon]

This is June.

[Dana]

Saw the ball come out. You'd have a better idea of when to swing.

[Brandon]

This is June 28th. That's what this is for.

[TJ]

Save it, okay?

[Brandon]

Save it for Jude. Put him. Put. Put something in the calendar. TJ.

[Fitz]

No.

[Dana]

Nobody's hitting a 98 mile per hour fastball. But if you're doing blindfold, it's.

[Chase]

You at least got a shot.

[Dana]

You don't have a shot. That's the point.

[Brandon]

Absolutely.

[Chase]

You just swing early.

[TJ]

This needs to be a big cat. Titus at a Cubs game, dude.

[Fitz]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Brandon]

We got to not be here for this.

[TJ]

Save it for that. We'll keep it glass.

[Brandon]

Hey.

[Dana]

That's the worst question you've ever asked. It might have.

[Brandon]

It might.

[Chase]

One out of 100.

[Dana]

Hundred. You would have a better chance with your eyes open. I don't know.

[Brandon]

Well, yeah. What?

[TJ]

Why would it be easier if your one sense doesn't.

[Brandon]

All right, Shay, the most important.

[TJ]

No, we're not doing. No, we're not.

[Dana]

No.

[Brandon]

Now we are. Then he wins. I'm gonna throw a wiffle ball. I'm gonna throw a wiffle ball. Ten Wiffle balls.

[Dana]

Okay.

[Brandon]

Blindfolded and not blindfold.

[TJ]

You know he's gonna win.

[Chase]

Well, you. Nobody can throw at that speed.

[Brandon]

I'm gonna. I'm gonna hawk it. I get there fast, I'm going to hawk it.

[TJ]

How will you know when the pitcher releases?

[Fitz]

Oh, my God.

[Chase]

I. I feel like 10's not a big enough.

[Brandon]

We don't even have to see you do it unblindfolded. I just want to see you blindfolded, trying to swing.

[Chase]

All right.

[Dana]

Fun.

[Brandon]

Perfect.

[TJ]

Just pretend it's a dog.

[Brandon]

I'm not going to tell him what I'm throwing.

[Gunner]

Do you guys think it'd be easier to win the Indy 500 facing backwards

[Dana]

with no arms or legs?

[Gunner]

Or just normal?

[Brandon]

What about the Indy 500 without a car?

[Gunner]

Without a car. Yeah.

[Fitz]

Runner.

[Emma]

You wouldn't be as afraid

[Brandon]

a bicycle. At least you'd have more control.

[Gunner]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Oh, my God.

[Brandon]

Okay.

[Fitz]

And we all knew what he. He said, would it be easier. Easier than what? But we all knew. We all knew what he meant when he said easier.

[Gunner]

Now you know what's going to happen here. He's gonna hit an absolute dinger blindfolded, and we're.

[Brandon]

He's gonna think he won't.

[Dana]

What?

[TJ]

I cannot believe we're humoring this.

[Emma]

We are.

[Fitz]

Yep.

[Dana]

You guys ready?

[Gunner]

He's gonna hit it.

[Dana]

He's gonna hit it.

[Gunner]

He's gonna do great.

[Chase]

I mean, I'm not.

[TJ]

The show's dead.

[Fitz]

Here we go.

[Chase]

I like it.

[TJ]

God damn it. It's funny.

[Emma]

He's really trying.

[TJ]

Gotta get that timing down.

[Emma]

He's not even trying to alter his take.

[Brandon]

Time in.

[Dana]

How do I do that?

[Chase]

One timeout. Time in.

[Fitz]

Close.

[Deutsch]

Good take. That was a ball.

[Fitz]

See, I got on Base.

[TJ]

Oh, my God.

[Fitz]

Damn it.

[Emma]

I'm glad you actually did that visual representation of how stupid.

[Fitz]

Oh, that was the dumbest question. That was his dumbest. It was his actual dumbest. No debate.

[Brandon]

That was so fun.

[Fitz]

And he's not backing down. Not backing down even.

[Emma]

Not even amending his.

[Gunner]

He doesn't.

[Fitz]

Not even saying, like, okay, I understand that it's stupid, but here's what I was thinking.

[Emma]

I actually meant he's like.

[Fitz]

I actually believe it more now.

[Brandon]

Oh, that's not 100 miles an hour.

[Dana]

Right.

[TJ]

Same classic, though.

[Chase]

I'm saying if. If I'm looking at the ball, you have no chance of hitting it.

[Brandon]

None. What are you talking about?

[TJ]

How do you lost your ball at it? He's completely lost it.

[Emma]

Lost his mind.

[Fitz]

Lost too many air horns. Scrambled his brain.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[TJ]

His tinnitus is.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Phil]

His air horn, to me was so.

[Fitz]

The air horn scrambled.

[Brandon]

I actually. You know what? I.

[Dana]

Stop.

[Brandon]

No, no.

[Gunner]

Can't.

[Brandon]

No, I, I. I'm so mad about this. Like, I think we need to send him to a batting cage right now. I mean, with Wyatt.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Like, I actually am so mad about this.

[Fitz]

I want.

[Brandon]

I want him to go to a batting cage.

[TJ]

We're a week removed from Trump versus I show speed.

[Chase]

I was like, o

[Brandon]

beer, Zach. Unbelievable.

[Dana]

He said pitching machine, not pitcher. Right.

[Brandon]

So I. Why look up.

[Chase]

This needs to be a consistent timing rhythm thing.

[Brandon]

Sluggers isn't open. But there's got to be a. There's got to be a place we can go. I would. I. I kind of want to. I kind of want to.

[Fitz]

Well, you're already amending it because you said a. A. A major league pitcher.

[Greg]

Yeah, I did.

[Chase]

Well, yeah. So something that can throw at that speeds.

[TJ]

White Sox.

[Chase]

It can be a regular pitcher, but it has to be like a regular cadence.

[Fitz]

What do you mean, a regular cadence?

[Chase]

That's the whole point. It's like, you can.

[Brandon]

No, you time.

[Chase]

That's the whole point of it.

[Brandon]

But you can time up with your eyes open.

[Fitz]

Yeah. What would be the.

[Dana]

You have to have your eyes.

[TJ]

What is the disadvantage of eyes open?

[Emma]

Yeah. Comparatively.

[Chase]

Because. And I'm talking about, like, a layman. So someone that doesn't play baseball. So, like, Marty Mush has proven he can hit like a pro hitter. But if I am hitting a guy who sucks at baseball, as soon as I see the ball, it's over. Like, I can't. I can't get the bat around that fast. If I can time it up where I'm generally like, okay, 1, 2, 3, 4, the ball again.

[Brandon]

What is the what's.

[Fitz]

But you can climb it up with the eyes open.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Like you're gonna miss the first pitch. But if it's a pitching machine and it's like it's just consistently feeding balls at the same cadence, aren't you going to time it up with your eyes open? Aren't you be like an hour is so hard. Yeah. But when you swing and you're like, okay, I swung way too late. I should go faster the next pitch. Aren't you going to adjust?

[TJ]

We're doing.

[Emma]

We're arguing the benefits of vision when hitting a baseball.

[Dana]

The most important thing in the entire world are your eyes.

[Chase]

Yeah, I got it. I understand the argument for not. But you guys are also assuming that like me or regular people can just get the bat around that.

[Dana]

Did you say Doug agree with you

[Fitz]

can't get the bat around that.

[Chase]

Doug.

[Dana]

You're not gonna where Doug go, Doug? Do you agree with him?

[Brandon]

Call Gunner Henderson.

[Greg]

I'm just gaslighting him. I'm telling him.

[Dana]

Thanks, Doug.

[Fitz]

Classic.

[Brandon]

Yeah, but he's got a day off.

[Chase]

I feel like today might not be the day to do with those guys.

[Dana]

Mike Trout.

[Brandon]

Why he didn't do any heat.

[TJ]

Yeah, he played well.

[Fitz]

His eyes were closed too.

[Brandon]

Just text the Mark Jaros to prime the group chat, pretending that they're the

[Chase]

worst people to ask.

[Brandon]

He just misspoke. Yeah, While he was warming up Clayton Kershaw. He said he misspoke. He was warming up Clayton Kershaw

[Dana]

and

[Brandon]

then Mason Miller just showed up.

[Emma]

Is it his job? Obviously it is. But shouldn't somebody have told him?

[Dana]

Somebody somewhere in the chain of command shift.

[Brandon]

I was not joking. I like I said it this morning, like I would hate, hate, hate to lose Mincy, but he would be perfect to be on Team USA just to ask follow up questions. You know what I mean? Just be like, so are you sure?

[Fitz]

Are you sure qualify?

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

You would annoy the at him, but you'd get the answer.

[Emma]

It's interesting.

[TJ]

If Miny got a better offer somewhere else, you'd fight for it. I know you would.

[Brandon]

Oh, man. I'd have to fight.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Call Vinnie. Call Vinnie.

[Dana]

Better offer.

[TJ]

Yeah, they won.

[Dana]

Better offer only financially or better offer in. In his life.

[TJ]

Oh, yeah. There is no such thing.

[Dana]

Yeah, like you don't have to ever pay you a lot of money.

[Chase]

I'll text Hedges.

[TJ]

You know, not as much as you.

[Brandon]

Who?

[Chase]

Austin Hedges. Oh, yeah. Hosmer.

[Dana]

You know, you keep.

[Brandon]

I'm gonna call Vinnie. I'm gonna Just see, I just want to hear.

[TJ]

I said three. I did misspoke. I do have to amend 2.8. 2.8 what million a year from. For Brandon.

[Emma]

Oh, yeah.

[Brandon]

That is facts. Right.

[TJ]

With Rev share.

[Brandon]

Yeah. And 800,000 is like, to the side being like, make sure you fight with all the Kobe stands.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Dana]

You get going for the next contract today.

[Brandon]

Yeah. Holy.

[TJ]

Wait, you're gonna call Austin Hedges?

[Brandon]

Are you gonna call someone's Che?

[Chase]

I just texted Hedges right now.

[Brandon]

I wanna. I want you to. I want you to phrase it to him exactly.

[Fitz]

Yeah, I feel like. I feel like some of these guys, they're such nice guys and they're gonna just.

[Brandon]

Yeah, Haha.

[Fitz]

Yeah, I guess. And then Shay's gonna say, See? He said, yeah, I guess.

[Dana]

But you gotta ask it like you asked us.

[Fitz]

Yeah, sure.

[Chase]

I'm asking him because we're friendly. But he's also a catcher.

[TJ]

Give him the choice of eyeballs or not.

[Brandon]

And you know what? Throw in after that follow up question. Hands. Would it be easier to hit a fastball without arms?

[Emma]

He's getting frustrated.

[Brandon]

He is.

[Dana]

No eyes. Legs.

[Brandon]

He thinks we're the dumb ones.

[Fitz]

Thighs are the most.

[Emma]

The most important part, I think coordination.

[Dana]

Sing the ball.

[Fitz]

I think you have a better shot of hitting with eyes and no hands than with hands and no eyes.

[Dana]

How can you time a bat in your mouth?

[Fitz]

Yeah, bat in your mouth, but you can see the ball coming. You have a better shot.

[TJ]

This show's dead.

[Dana]

How can this object if you can't see the object?

[Brandon]

I needed this, so. Because I feel like. Like they're 18 minutes into the show.

[Fitz]

He dropped us.

[Brandon]

Once football season ends, we kind of lose Stephen Che for a little bit. And like, I feel like I haven't gotten full Che in a long time.

[Chase]

This was it.

[Brandon]

And this is so it. This and then the dog, which we got to talk about.

[Emma]

Dog.

[Brandon]

I was giggling to myself last night. Or just like a Pomeranian coming up to Che and him just being like, stop it right there. Freeze into the line.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Chase]

My DMs responses were show your paws. Pretty much 50, 50. With people agreeing with me and then people being really upset with me.

[Brandon]

All right, wait till you get Hedges. Let's do the.

[Chase]

They might be doing spring training stuff right now.

[Dana]

Might be.

[Brandon]

Well, that's why. That's why one. That's why Gunner is not. He's got an off day. I'll text Gunner.

[TJ]

I need a pallet cleanse. Show me Greg.

[Fitz]

Let's see.

[Brandon]

Let's look.

[Dana]

Oh, yeah. Got the Laptop out.

[Phil]

Huh?

[Dana]

He's working man representing Missouri in his green jumpsuit. Got the green lights behind him.

[TJ]

That's our guy.

[Dana]

Were those. Were those green lights always there? Did he put.

[TJ]

He installed them.

[Dana]

I believe.

[Fitz]

He's a fucking star.

[TJ]

Loves March Madness.

[Dana]

Oh, look at that thousand watt smile right there. Did he. I did give away. I did give away the secret today.

[Brandon]

Can I say something? What?

[Dana]

I gave away the secret. That barstool Idle, Missouri was. Was a farce because you had already given Greg a three million dollar contract.

[Brandon]

Yeah, that's true. Can I. Can I say something that. We love Greg, but can I just say something that hopefully he won't be upset about?

[Dana]

Sure, sure. Did he.

[Brandon]

Did he gain a bar stool? 15 without even being in the spot.

[TJ]

He has a lot of one wings log.

[Brandon]

I feel like he was a little skinnier last week.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Emma]

Gained from home.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[TJ]

He filmed 15 episodes of the same restaurant, Sympathy Weight.

[Brandon]

He's like, well, those guys.

[TJ]

Those guys are doing it. I might as well. We'll get him good.

[Dana]

You just want to look at him for a while.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Pensive.

[Brandon]

What's going on in that brain?

[Dana]

Mark, I fear that you've. You've. You've actually fallen for.

[Fitz]

I've fallen for him. Everything he does is funny.

[TJ]

Your crew of Chef Donnie and Green Greg.

[Fitz]

Everything Greg does is funny.

[TJ]

Did you see the tweet of you with your legs spread when the Statue of Liberty was jerking you off and somebody was like. Like, that's our introvert. That's our shy boy.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Oh, my God. Che. This might just be a Che day. Che, what did you. What did you say to Max when he congratulated you on Hofstra?

[Chase]

Oh, in person, like a couple minutes ago.

[Brandon]

Yeah, let's. Let's replay. I'm gonna. I'll be Max. Che, congrats on Hofstra making the tournament.

[Chase]

First time we've been in since the two towers were standing.

[Dana]

God, why

[Chase]

they made it in 2001 in March.

[Emma]

That's.

[Chase]

That's a point in history everybody knows.

[Brandon]

25 years would have worked. So.

[Fitz]

Said another way, the last time you made the tournament, shortly after that, a horrific attack, horrific terrorist attack that changed the course of. Of the entire world.

[Dana]

Human history.

[Fitz]

Human history.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Chase]

Osama bin Laden was not that well known.

[Brandon]

He's pretty. He's pretty.

[Dana]

He had a name for himself.

[Brandon]

Yeah, he was pretty known.

[Dana]

Yeah. He had already gone through spring training with. With the bombing.

[TJ]

Oh, really?

[Dana]

Yeah. He had made a run at it before.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[TJ]

Yeah, he was.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[TJ]

Yeah, Yeah, I guess he was a.

[Dana]

So first time you've made his. Muhammad was a prospect.

[Chase]

Yeah, he was probably just a ride.

[Dana]

It might.

[Brandon]

It might just be just a pilot.

[Dana]

The conditions are favorable for.

[Brandon]

Yeah, we haven't had one.

[Dana]

Could break out into a warning any moment now.

[Brandon]

What did you say this morning when you sent the picture of you with your dog? You said I had to hold it tight because his. Her paws were wet. His.

[Chase]

Oh, that's true. It was raining out this morning.

[Brandon]

What. What. What is a wet paw dog? Why do you have to hold tight?

[Chase]

We just got our house clean. I don't want the.

[Brandon]

Oh, we just got inside. I thought you meant you were holding, like, in case the dog slipped.

[Chase]

No, no, no, no. We, I, we just walked in. Got it, and I was like, oh, take a picture of me before I get all out of my jacket and stuff.

[Brandon]

Did you. Did you have to use the horn last night?

[Chase]

No, I did not. I didn't walk the dog last night. Walked this morning. My wife did the dog walking because

[Brandon]

I had basketball, and she goes out with nothing.

[Chase]

She's been bringing the horn.

[Dana]

Now, to clarify, you had basketball practice with your kid, right? It was.

[Fitz]

Yes.

[Chase]

Yes.

[Dana]

You're not in a secret basketball league?

[Chase]

No.

[Brandon]

All right. Look at that thing.

[Chase]

Well, the air horn that I got yesterday was enormous, and so, yeah, this one is much.

[TJ]

Well, do you think there was a way to show the sound of this?

[Brandon]

Yeah, that doesn't seem a cocker spaniel comes around the corner.

[Fitz]

Look at this sound.

[Emma]

Listen to this.

[Dana]

Look.

[TJ]

It's not that loud.

[Chase]

I, I, I. Yeah. You want a video of a. An air horn? Yes, I can do that. It's. It's definitely not even close to as loud as the one from yesterday, but I will film that today. Hosmer says we can call him. He's retired.

[Brandon]

Chase got his. You come around the corner and Chase

[Chase]

guys, or actually, I'll get him on zoom.

[Brandon]

Hold on. He's got his. He's got his knee on a cocker spaniel's.

[Dana]

Look at the.

[Brandon]

Dude let that dog up. God damn it. If.

[TJ]

If I missed the Che kills dog episode.

[Brandon]

Oh, man.

[TJ]

Oh, I'll fly back from wherever

[Brandon]

he's gonna kill it.

[Fitz]

He's going to. Yeah.

[Brandon]

Oh, yeah.

[TJ]

It's a matter of.

[Brandon]

It's like dog, potentially rabbit. Some type of animal.

[TJ]

I'm out.

[Brandon]

Is getting killed.

[TJ]

I'm out tomorrow and Friday. I don't think it's gonna happen then. It's pro. I think it's a summer thing.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Chase]

Things would have been very different if it was. If it was light out. We mainly walk the dog in the light hours.

[Dana]

Smart.

[Fitz]

Okay.

[Brandon]

For safety.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[TJ]

Who just carries around an air.

[Dana]

Look at this.

[Brandon]

He's got his golf club. He's ready to go.

[Chase]

Great tip. I got the air horn in the left pocket.

[Dana]

We should play more golf this year.

[Brandon]

Chad, zoom in on the dog. Let me see the dog.

[Dana]

It's a cute dog.

[Brandon]

Thought bubbly.

[Phil]

Pepper.

[Brandon]

Can you believe the pussy that's walking me around? I'm a dog with teeth. I can defend myself.

[Emma]

This is so much.

[Chase]

We'll see. Young dog.

[Dana]

Is that a golden doodle? What is that?

[Chase]

Sheep a doodle.

[Dana]

So sheep a doodle.

[Chase]

Sheepdog and poodle hospital.

[Brandon]

All right. Perfect. Great.

[Dana]

Does he know at all? He doesn't know, right? No.

[Fitz]

No.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Good.

[Chase]

He might get mad at me.

[Dana]

He might.

[TJ]

Do those guys get mad at you, Steve?

[Dana]

Yes. Oh, yeah.

[Brandon]

Usually I start it like I. I rile them up.

[Dana]

About what? I'll just be fantasy.

[Brandon]

Like if there's. If someone has a problem or like a rule violation, I'll just insinuate the chase cheating for on my behalf and then they'll take it seriously and get upset at them.

[Dana]

So you especially telling on yourself, too.

[Brandon]

What do you mean?

[Dana]

Well, you're getting cheated on.

[Brandon]

No, I'm not.

[Dana]

You're getting cheated for.

[Brandon]

Yeah, but he's not.

[Dana]

Put it off on him, okay?

[Brandon]

He's not cheating for me. Yeah, it'd be like someone drops a kicker right before, like. Like kickoff.

[TJ]

Chase, commissioner.

[Brandon]

Chase commissioner.

[TJ]

And you let it slide, Che.

[Brandon]

He's loose. He gets.

[Chase]

Oh, I wouldn't say I'm loose. I.

[Dana]

We.

[Chase]

A lot of it is them getting mad and me handling it.

[Dana]

Are you a strict authoritarian?

[TJ]

Are you just.

[Chase]

I feel like I am. I am. But then they get mad about a lot of stuff.

[Dana]

So don't let these pampered athletes get away with that.

[Chase]

I don't let anybody get away with anything.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

[TJ]

we might. Did you see Quigs tweet about Fasoli's tweet?

[Brandon]

No.

[TJ]

Solely, I think was rooting for Italy.

[Brandon]

Oh, of course.

[Emma]

He was torn.

[TJ]

And then there's a tweet about, like, the fattest dude you know in New Jersey.

[Brandon]

Yeah. Big content, guys. The best.

[TJ]

Hilarious there.

[Brandon]

The fattest Italian man ever who has never left the Northeast is sitting in New Jersey going, I'm torn on hooteroo.

[Chase]

And right below.

[Brandon]

Hardest game I've ever watched. I love my country so much. I also love my nanny and where my family came from, but I really love Roman Anthony. Anthony.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Emma]

He just did exactly that plus extra credit.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Oh, man. Oh, who do I root for? It's also funny because every guy on Team Italy is just American.

[Dana]

Right.

[Emma]

I came to that. Really?

[Fitz]

I was like, what?

[Emma]

This is not.

[Brandon]

They just got all the. They just got all the, like, American guys from New Jersey.

[Fitz]

It's like, right.

[Emma]

Some of my boys.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Emma]

Teals on that team.

[Brandon]

Yeah. Teal shouldn't be. You need to have me hit a home run. I was like, this is deal. I could deal with Vinnie Pasco.

[Dana]

That.

[Brandon]

That makes sense. And his name's Vinnie. Like, that's cool.

[Fitz]

It's got to end in a vowel.

[Brandon]

It's got to end in a vowel. That's what I was saying. I was saying on pmt, like, Team Italy. I feel like they took everyone. Why not? Why not? Sh. He ends in a vowel.

[TJ]

That is a pretty Italian name.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Emma]

The requirements are insane. This is the same for Olympics.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Emma]

If your grandparent was just born in a different country.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Emma]

I mean, immediately moved. You can.

[Brandon]

I mean, we know this Malicek is competing to be in the Olympics, right? That right. There should be, like, the Olympics should end. He should actually. There should be no more Olympics once Malicex. Like, yeah, I'm throwing my hat in for team check.

[Dana]

I love.

[Fitz]

I love the Olympics, but if they cancel the entire Olympic games because of malice, I'd be okay with it.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

I would have no choice but to be like, yeah, that's actually the. The right course of action.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Derosa's Italian.

[Greg]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

He's A too.

[Fitz]

Maybe he's throwing the game.

[Dana]

Throwing the whole tournament.

[Brandon]

That's so funny. They didn't know the rules.

[Dana]

He just aggressively didn't know the rules.

[TJ]

They thought they were already in the court.

[Dana]

They thought they were cruising. Yeah. They let the boys go out the other night.

[Brandon]

Yep.

[Dana]

They're. They're halfway through the game last night before he realized. Like, I told him.

[Fitz]

He actually said it.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Just like we're. We're guessing that he thought that he actually said in an interview, we've already punched our tickets, so.

[Brandon]

And then MLB deleted that video. Like, the Internet isn't forever. But I. I want Team USA to advance because I do, like, the World Baseball Classic. It would be very funny if they did. Office technicality. And like, how did this possible to get beat by? It would be one of the dumbest. It'd be one of the dumbest things that's ever happened in sports. Yeah.

[Chase]

Nine bodies ready to roll today, I would imagine.

[Brandon]

Absolutely.

[Greg]

I'm going to look at it. I'm going to get some guys off their feet. No question about it.

[Brandon]

I'd like to get Goldie a start.

[Greg]

And, you know, he has been awesome. Just a leader of men behind the

[Brandon]

scenes with Aaron Judge.

[Greg]

I'd like to get him in there.

[Brandon]

I'd like to get Gunner in there.

[Greg]

Again, ton of respect for Italy.

[Brandon]

It's.

[Greg]

It's weird. We want to win. We want to win this game even though our tickets punched at a quarterfinals because Mexico plays Italy actually tomorrow. So this.

[Phil]

The way.

[Brandon]

The way the schedule lines up. This is important.

[Emma]

It's weird.

[Fitz]

Yeah. That we want to. It's weird. I know it might seem weird we want to win this game that we have to win to advance the next round, but we actually do.

[Brandon]

Yeah. And then he said, I misspoke.

[TJ]

Read the calculations.

[Phil]

Calculations.

[TJ]

What does that.

[Emma]

Misread.

[TJ]

The calculations are confusing.

[Greg]

I misspoke. I was on Hot stove with a couple buddies today and completely misread. Misread the calculations. We knew that Mexico was going to play Italy and then running all the numbers with if we lost tonight with the runs allowed and run scored, and so I. I just misspoke.

[Brandon]

He did not misspeak.

[Dana]

He didn't misspeak. He was wrong. He just.

[Brandon]

He just didn't point to the exact moment that he was wrong. When Clayton Kershaw was warming up and then Mason Miller came in. That was when he. Someone in the dugout was like, hey, dude. Like, we actually kind of have to win. This guy.

[Fitz]

That's crazy. I can't remember.

[Emma]

He probably even told him, like, guys.

[Brandon]

Yeah, yeah, definitely. For eight innings, he was like, guys, just around.

[Fitz]

Has something like this ever happened? Can you remember a time where a coach, like, didn't the format, like, the Rules like Coach K after Duke gets upset is just like. I gotta be honest, I thought we had another game. Yeah, I didn't realize. Yeah, we're out.

[TJ]

I feel like every tie in the NFL, there's one dude that would be it.

[Brandon]

McNabb would be the. The number one guy.

[Fitz]

NFL regular season ties. And they're. Yeah.

[Brandon]

McNabb was the poster boy of that for a very long time. Being like, I didn't know we could end in a tie after ending in a tie. Oh, man.

[TJ]

I think I'm eyes closed now.

[Brandon]

The more I think shut off. No, you do this.

[Emma]

So what it does, it eliminates the fear and it actually.

[TJ]

No, you're more relaxed. You're more relaxed.

[Brandon]

Better.

[TJ]

And also it's like having that excuse of, well, my eyes were closed would make me more calm. I think it's lower pressure.

[Emma]

Being able to see the release. Scare you.

[Fitz]

The rest of your senses will be heightened. So you can have the ball coming.

[TJ]

Better smell the seed.

[Fitz]

Yes, that.

[Dana]

I smelled it, man.

[Brandon]

You can just time it. You can time it up better, guy.

[Dana]

I can smell the ball.

[Fitz]

Tj, Has Greg stopped watching basketball?

[Brandon]

Please don't tell me that.

[Dana]

Ain't no way.

[Phil]

He's still in there, man.

[Fitz]

Has he stopped?

[Dana]

Ain't no way.

[Phil]

So it looks like he's in there to me. Hold on. Why can't I see?

[Fitz]

Oh, he hasn't stopped.

[Brandon]

Nope. Nope.

[Gunner]

I heard Jerry asked, like, is. This is expertise? And he said he's a mid majors guy.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Gunner]

A mid.

[Dana]

Is that mid major?

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

No, that. That means he's not.

[Dana]

But he's also. He's also just not a mid major guy.

[Brandon]

No, no. In mid majors.

[Dana]

Missouri fan.

[Brandon]

Anyone who claims they're mid majors guy, he's basically walking in the room being like, hope no one else is a mid majors guy here. Right. Because, like, if I can just name a few teams, everyone be like, oh, you know, ball dude. Unfortunately for him, Reegs is here. So he's.

[Fitz]

He's a little.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

He doesn't even know Missouri.

[Greg]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

You ask him about Missouri, he's just like,

[Dana]

this team.

[Fitz]

This team's special.

[TJ]

I am excited for Nikki Smokes and Deutsch to inevitably take him out for 25B. They pitch a show that involves drinking beer.

[Dana]

That is the welcome committee.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[TJ]

Which Nicky Smokes will take you out and they'll deem that guy a superstar and then try to. Try to get him to move here.

[Brandon]

Yeah. Nikki Smokes will tweet like, it's good to find to, like, finally have a boys night. Even though that's the. The 75th boys there, right? Yes. Why can't the boys just go out and have a good time? Just like last weekend and the weekend before? Yeah. White boy Rick texted me over the weekend. He was like, I think we nailed it for the recruitment of Ethan to Chicago. And I was like, no, you didn't. He's not coming.

[Emma]

Good kid business.

[Brandon]

He ain't coming.

[Emma]

It was networking.

[Brandon]

I do like that they go out, because I do think there's something to be said for, like, keeping us young as a collective group. Like, they're out on the scene.

[TJ]

Yeah.

[Emma]

It's nice.

[TJ]

And when one of them up, it'll give us a full day to talk about something.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Deutsch. I love Deutsch. Unbelievable to meet with him today. And it was like. It's like, I got this idea, like, all right, lay it on me. It was basically just going and drinking at the White Sox opening day.

[Deutsch]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

I was like, yeah, do it, dude. You got this.

[Dana]

You know how I drink beer, right?

[TJ]

And then Kate and Dana are in line waiting to talk to you to pitch the same exact thing.

[Gunner]

I think Drop a pin Podcast is taking him to a beer spa today. They're going to a beer spa with

[TJ]

Deutsche or spot Spa.

[Gunner]

Spa. It's, like, right down the street. I've passed it before, and I'm like, what the.

[TJ]

What's a beer spot?

[Dana]

Listen, is this a normal spa that serves you beer?

[Gunner]

I think you, like, sit in beer. I think it's like, you sit. I think, like, beer is part of the. And you drink beer as you do it, but you're also fully immersed.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Emma]

A little me day for door.

[Dana]

That's not fun.

[TJ]

Yeah. Just a break from the grind.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Gunner]

I think those, like you said,

[Dana]

Has

[Brandon]

so many aesthetic values and properties. He decided to visit a beer spa.

[TJ]

What are the whole square neighborhood.

[Brandon]

To learn more about this soothing trend.

[Dana]

Oh.

[Gunner]

Peaceful.

[Dana]

Oh.

[Emma]

I find this weird. Like, kind of shocking. People bathe in beer.

[Dana]

Are they really?

[TJ]

Or are they just drinking? That looks like beers.

[Gunner]

Preventing myself from nodding off because it is so relaxing here.

[Brandon]

It's not just for drinking anymore. About 98.6 degrees. So nice and warm.

[TJ]

That's the type of guy that is

[Brandon]

the type of guy that I need to hire him.

[Chase]

Dibs.

[Brandon]

Go back to that guy.

[TJ]

It's like Van from Reba.

[Brandon]

He's like a Mikey Ben. That's like Chuck. Nice.

[Dana]

Like a mash.

[Emma]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Something me and my dad did together.

[Dana]

So it's going to Wait, what? What? You're your dad.

[Brandon]

What?

[TJ]

Your dad chilling in a tub of

[Greg]

Heineken in Chicago Piva Beer Spa is something me and my dad did together.

[Brandon]

So it's been about three years in the making. And essentially the owner, the main thing that we do at this point is our beer soaks. Co owner.

[Dana]

Wait a second. At home, him and his dad were just heating up beer and sitting in it.

[Gunner]

Proven to be good for your skin.

[TJ]

Here we go.

[Brandon]

Soothing for the body. It's basically going to be great for conditioning. Active brewer's yeast in the beer is

[Greg]

going to be great for making the skin feel touch.

[Brandon]

Obviously, alcohol in the beer is a natural antimicrobial. The smell of hops is also a natural relaxant as well. So when you leave here, you should leave here with this guy. Loves being nice and shiny without being weighed down. Your skin feeling soft to the touch and just generally feeling relaxed.

[Fitz]

This spa also.

[Brandon]

Wait now hold on a second. They're going to this. What are they going to do, just sit in it?

[Emma]

There's no way do sits.

[Brandon]

There's no way. There's no way Deutsch could. Could drink his way out of it.

[Chase]

Right.

[Brandon]

I mean, people are saying he can't do that. Right.

[Dana]

And just overall being able to come.

[Brandon]

Yeah, I don't think that I want to see. They're not drink his way out of a bathtub of beer.

[Dana]

They're not reusing beer.

[Gunner]

Right?

[TJ]

Yeah, I bet you they are.

[Dana]

They're not like, you go an hour later, I come. I'm not sending the same beer.

[TJ]

Emma. That would be so much wasted beer.

[Dana]

So much wasted.

[Fitz]

So much.

[Gunner]

I don't think the whole tub is beer. I think they pour a few different beers in there with the water.

[Dana]

I. I got the sense the whole tub was beer. Kate.

[TJ]

I would need that to be a whole tub of beer.

[Gunner]

Right? I don't know.

[Dana]

There wasn't any. There was no head. There was no head that wasn't.

[TJ]

No, no flat. No head.

[Dana]

There's no head in that head spa.

[Phil]

This short answer. Yes, I'm soaking in real beer. But the tub is not only filled with beer, you're soaking in a solution of beer ingredients that we have isolated that provide benefits to the look and feel of your skin and hair.

[Brandon]

Okay.

[Dana]

Okay.

[Phil]

So it's a beer mixture.

[Brandon]

[TJ]

What's with the shorts?

[Deutsch]

They're a little short, so I pulled them.

[TJ]

How short are they?

[Dana]

Stand up. They're not short.

[Deutsch]

They're fine.

[Brandon]

Yeah, no, go back to what you wanted.

[Emma]

Yeah, do what you feel comfortable.

[TJ]

Are you more comfortable that way?

[Brandon]

There you go.

[Dana]

That as high as the socks will come up? Yeah, that's probably.

[TJ]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Okay.

[Brandon]

When are you going to the beer spa?

[Deutsch]

We're leaving at 4 o' clock today.

[TJ]

Are you excited?

[Deutsch]

I honestly need a couple days off, but yeah, it should be fun.

[Dana]

Where's from beer?

[Deutsch]

I'd like a couple days off to prepare for St. Patrick's Day.

[Brandon]

Yeah. This is your.

[Fitz]

You.

[Brandon]

This is your biggest day of the year. Yeah, by far for sure. What people are saying though, did you see what the beer spa looks like?

[Deutsch]

I looked at a couple pictures.

[Brandon]

People are saying you won't. You can't drink your way out of it.

[Dana]

That's what they're saying online.

[Deutsch]

Like a beer fest style.

[Brandon]

Yeah, right. You won't drink your bathtub.

[Deutsch]

A tornado vortex like landfill.

[Brandon]

That's what people are saying. Oh, man.

[Deutsch]

We'll see how many. How many men were soaking in it beforehand.

[Brandon]

Okay, that's fair.

[Deutsch]

If it's more than like 5 to 10, then I'm probably not

[Dana]

fine.

[Deutsch]

If it's 4 under. If it's under 4, I'll drink some of the beer.

[Dana]

Yeah, I also.

[Deutsch]

It's probably non alcoholic. The stuff that.

[Dana]

Oh, he said there was alcohol in it. He said that was one of the.

[Deutsch]

Okay.

[TJ]

Oh, it's non intoxicating.

[Brandon]

Oh, no. But Soak. Is that soaking? You're gonna drink it.

[Emma]

Well, what if you.

[Dana]

They have CBD soaks as well.

[Emma]

Pull your pants down.

[TJ]

Right.

[Emma]

And it goes up.

[TJ]

If it goes up your pee hole.

[Deutsch]

Up my meatus.

[Brandon]

Oh, you're gonna boof some.

[TJ]

You're what?

[Deutsch]

Meatus.

[Dana]

What's that?

[Emma]

Meatus.

[Deutsch]

A medical term for the opening of your pee hole.

[Dana]

Oh. What was the urethra? Is it not.

[TJ]

I guess just the opening is the meatus.

[Deutsch]

Is the meat.

[Brandon]

What was the word you taught us?

[Emma]

Wow.

[Deutsch]

It was a phrase I taught you.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Deutsch]

Muckled onto.

[Brandon]

Yeah, that's right. So, what's your plans for Saturday?

[Deutsch]

I think, unless he bails on me. Joe Chestnut's coming to visit.

[Brandon]

Oh, yeah. You told me this morning that Joey Chestnut might be staying at your apartment.

[Deutsch]

I was trying to get him to crash with me, but he wants to get a hotel room.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[TJ]

Damn. How's. How's your new apartment? Do you miss Mincy's?

[Deutsch]

Mincy's was definitely a nicer spot.

[Dana]

Well, it's been here longer.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Yeah, he deserves it.

[Greg]

The.

[Deutsch]

I mean, the goal would be to have a spot like Mincy's.

[TJ]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Deutsch]

Things are going to be like, a couple years from now. If I could get a spot like that. Yeah, that'd be huge.

[TJ]

How's the furniture situation? There he is.

[Deutsch]

I have a queen mattress on the floor and a boneless couch.

[Emma]

A boneless couch?

[Fitz]

A bean bag?

[Deutsch]

No, it's. It's probably in between a bean bag and a normal couch.

[Brandon]

What is so.

[TJ]

No, like.

[Deutsch]

So it comes tightly packed, and when it comes out of the box, it expands. So it's like a couch, but it's cheaper and easier to ship.

[TJ]

Is it comfy?

[Deutsch]

No, it's okay. Again, if things go well over the next couple years, I might get it.

[Brandon]

You might get bones in your couch.

[Deutsch]

I might get a couch.

[Fitz]

Leave those bones in. On this couch.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Sir, I had some success at work.

[Brandon]

A bone in. Please.

[TJ]

Give you any tips on how to get a place like his?

[Deutsch]

No, he just.

[Dana]

I hope he said work hard.

[Deutsch]

Yeah, no, he. I just looked for something kind of in his area and I found just kind of a cheaper, cheaper version of his place. What was really stupid is I should

[Brandon]

make you guys trade.

[Deutsch]

That would be nice.

[Brandon]

Yeah. There's no one for one swap.

[Deutsch]

Yeah, the laundry. I'm having to go down, like 20 something floors to do laundry, which isn't great.

[Dana]

Elevator, though, hopefully. Right?

[Brandon]

There's an elevator washer and dryer here.

[TJ]

That'll be amazing.

[Greg]

Yeah.

[Deutsch]

A washer dryer here would be huge.

[Dana]

That thing would be broken in a day and a half.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Somebody would put something in there that

[Fitz]

has no business also there just constantly be in there. People would like wash clothes and walk away. Yeah, just walk away. And there's just a load in the washer.

[Dana]

We do need a bed here. No, what I heard.

[TJ]

What do you mean?

[Brandon]

I'll get you a bed. All you have to do is say, I want a bed. I've said that before.

[Dana]

I don't want a bed. See, you're gonna be like that, but

[Brandon]

I want to get you a bed. But you're like, nah, I'll be fine. I'll sleep on this love seat.

[TJ]

Where would you.

[Brandon]

Three in the morning.

[Dana]

What if you.

[TJ]

What if you did a pull out couch in the.

[Dana]

Mostly I don't know where we could keep. We don't really have that room.

[Brandon]

That intern room that's always.

[Dana]

People are always coming up with ideas to do stuff in there and they just put shit in there and then don't do anything. That room very relevant to the people watching the show right now.

[TJ]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Mm.

[Fitz]

You met Greg Deutsch?

[Deutsch]

Yeah, Greg came over. I think I'm gonna do.

[Brandon]

What do you mean he came over?

[Deutsch]

He came over to just visit me at my desk.

[Dana]

Okay. I was like, sound like he came to your party.

[Deutsch]

No, like 30 minutes ago.

[Fitz]

How do you introduce himself? Did he walk up and say something?

[Deutsch]

He was just like, it's great to meet you, man. I know he's gonna be streaming, but he wants to find a window to go out for some beers.

[Dana]

Oh, wow.

[Brandon]

Are you gonna be able to find that window?

[Deutsch]

I'm gonna have to find that window. It's probably gonna be tonight because he's gonna be streaming the rest of the time. I'd feel guilty if I didn't give him a proper.

[Dana]

So for somebody that wants to take a couple days off from beer, it sounds like you've really lined up some beer.

[Deutsch]

Well, I'm gonna have to.

[Brandon]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[TJ]

How was it with Ethan?

[Deutsch]

It was awesome.

[TJ]

Yeah, he was great.

[Greg]

He.

[Deutsch]

We got him a 70 ounce boot and he was like, hilarious. He was. For the first three quarters of it and then the last, like, pint, he was just miserable. Hiding in his sweater. Sick. But he ended up throwing up in the bathroom and he got like a second wind.

[TJ]

Good, good.

[Deutsch]

Yeah, it's a good Sunday.

[Dana]

Think he's on the way out here. Is it snowing?

[Deutsch]

We'll see.

[Gunner]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Yeah. Snowing.

[Brandon]

No, it's not.

[Gunner]

Yes, it is.

[Dana]

That looks like snow.

[Brandon]

This is.

[Dana]

It was just.

[Brandon]

Pft. Talked so much about the.

[Dana]

Can you get it? I don't even know if you're gonna. That might be rain. No, no, no, it's.

[Gunner]

No, no.

[Brandon]

But it's also gonna be warm. It's gonna. It's not gonna stick.

[Dana]

Okay. All right. That was distracting. I spent three hours watching weather last night.

[TJ]

Watching.

[Dana]

Y' all ever watch weather even if

[Brandon]

it's not Tammy year old.

[TJ]

What do you mean? Watching weather change. Like outside?

[Dana]

No, when there's a weather outbreak. I just watched Ryan Hall, y', all on YouTube and.

[Emma]

Oh, the weather Channel.

[Dana]

And he. No, he's a. He's a. These are. These guys are bigger than the weather Channel.

[Brandon]

Did you see the record breaking.

[Dana]

Yeah. Holy. Ryan hall has first buddy.

[Gunner]

Five and a half.

[Brandon]

Yeah, it was technically in Indiana. Record breaking hail store hell technicalities involved. I don't know.

[Dana]

It was.

[Brandon]

Wait till you see the picture.

[Gunner]

This hail, that tornado that messed it up was only 50 miles from here.

[Dana]

South of here.

[Fitz]

Yeah, wasn't too far.

[TJ]

Where is Dana?

[Brandon]

Look at this.

[Fitz]

Whoa.

[Brandon]

There's another picture. A guy had it outside.

[TJ]

Yeah, I can't really tell the size.

[Brandon]

Now if you close your eyes and tried to catch that.

[Dana]

Yes, you would Chance.

[Emma]

And there's a.

[Dana]

Maybe better off.

[Chase]

Wow.

[Fitz]

Wow.

[Dana]

I mean, that's. That's.

[Brandon]

Looks like cauliflower.

[Dana]

That'll. Thanks.

[Brandon]

Pft.

[Emma]

Looks like seafood.

[Brandon]

Yeah, could be hail. That might be hail. He's been running up the score on the weather. She's insane.

[Dana]

Oh, it's over.

[TJ]

This is his winner's done.

[Dana]

Oh, yeah. Did you see Monday?

[Brandon]

Yeah, but then it's gonna get warm again.

[Dana]

Yeah. No, it's gonna be.

[Fitz]

Also winter kicked our ass.

[Dana]

God almighty.

[Brandon]

Yeah. Check out this bat.

[Dana]

Oh, and he's frolicking through farmland.

[Emma]

You know, it's sharp and jagged.

[Brandon]

That thing. Would you up. Is Hosmer here? Gunner said you can call him. Him. Do you want to call Gunner?

[Dana]

Both Gunner and Hosmer. Hold on.

[Chase]

Hos just finished up a haircut. He said he'd call in a couple minutes. Let me just check in, give him some time.

[Dana]

Yeah, tell him to hurry the up. All right.

[Brandon]

Deutsch. Well, good luck. Thanks again.

[Emma]

People are.

[Brandon]

People are saying.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Have you ever booed a beer Deutsch Boofed? No. Okay.

[Greg]

I haven't.

[Deutsch]

I've seen some.

[Fitz]

You're interested in trying.

[Greg]

I've seen it.

[Deutsch]

I've seen it done.

[Dana]

You've been in the room with a boofer?

[Deutsch]

Yes.

[TJ]

And how were they. After the booth,

[Deutsch]

it was time for

[Greg]

bed for you or them?

[Deutsch]

I mean, it was the end of the night.

[Dana]

Are you in bed with the person?

[Emma]

End of the night, active.

[Deutsch]

It was an end of the night activity. And after that I was like, all right, we just need to go to bed. And end of the night, we've taken it too far.

[Dana]

That seems. I would have a little night out. Yeah, I don't know.

[TJ]

I would have me awake afterwards.

[Fitz]

Do you think you could be talked into trying it or is it a hard.

[Deutsch]

No, I wouldn't do it. I guess it wasn't a real like. It wasn't like a butt funnel. It was. One of my buddies would try to get like the vodka soaked tampon.

[Greg]

Yeah.

[Deutsch]

He'd convince a girl to like put it up his butt. One time we were at Foxwoods and me and my. Me and my friend got back at like 5 o' clock in the morning and my buddy was on all fours on his bed and the kid who I was out with, his girlfriend was. Was putting it up my buddy's butt. Four or five in the morning.

[Emma]

For his request.

[Deutsch]

For his request. But it was a pretty funny.

[Fitz]

And your buddy who was dating this girl, was he upset about it?

[Deutsch]

No, he thought it was hilarious.

[Fitz]

Because it was nothing sexual. It was just.

[Deutsch]

No, no.

[Fitz]

Matter of fact, see if Gregory's up as you do.

[Greg]

Yeah.

[TJ]

What? Tj, what did you send us?

[Dana]

Oh, yeah.

[Brandon]

All right. Thanks, Deutsche.

[Deutsch]

Thanks, guys.

[Brandon]

What did you send us, Meek?

[Phil]

Phil's throwing.

[Brandon]

Oh, pull it up.

[Dana]

This is the Dave tweet. Yeah.

[Gunner]

Wait, why is he throwing stuff?

[Phil]

They're talking about the World Baseball Classic.

[Dana]

Except for one person. Yo, why don't you.

[Brandon]

So I.

[Greg]

All I said is I hope these games are great. I hope there's fun moments. I hope nobody gets hurt. I don't care who wins.

[Dana]

That's just shows you don't care. And it's funny.

[Greg]

I said that in my exact other

[Brandon]

group chat and I get told. Phil, why do you love the WBC so much? I don't care about this at all.

[Dana]

I could care less.

[Brandon]

I don't care what you're.

[Dana]

Group chat. A horrible group

[Brandon]

chat.

[Greg]

Do you want me to say something?

[Brandon]

Then as an American, I was very happy Aaron Judge struck out the game on the line last night.

[Chase]

Insane.

[TJ]

I know you're messing.

[Brandon]

I am very happy to see you

[TJ]

have severe, near severe mental illness.

[Dana]

Why?

[Brandon]

That's insane. I was very happy to Aaron Judge.

[Dana]

So McLean, you were happy,

[Brandon]

child.

[Dana]

McLean do.

[Brandon]

I was not gonna sit down. How did McLean he was awful.

[Dana]

Yeah. So, like, what is it? And I actually, like.

[Brandon]

You were like.

[Dana]

No, I said I trying to root for.

[Brandon]

I was Ryan Yarborough. Anthony got a hit to make it an 85 game. I was like, judge struck out.

[Greg]

And you know what?

[Brandon]

I'm happy USA got embarrassed because our manager did not.

[Fitz]

Oh, shut up.

[Dana]

You don't get the top. Oh, no.

[Brandon]

You didn't impersonate me, you bald.

[Dana]

Yeah. Good. You impersonate me the whole time.

[Brandon]

Let me finish my sentence.

[Emma]

You just did it.

[Brandon]

Did you kick him out of here's like, sentence? I am very happy we got embarrassed because our loser manager that you were shaking hands with doesn't know the rules of the tournament. That is embarrassing. You know what? Embarrassed on national stage because maybe next year, next world baseball Classic, they can take it seriously.

[TJ]

It's classic Monica's wow diagnosis. Dean,

[Brandon]

There's a moment there where I was like. It felt like watching the two. Two old muppets in the.

[TJ]

Oh, yeah.

[Brandon]

Balcony.

[Chase]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Bickering God knows what.

[Fitz]

All right.

[Brandon]

Hosmer's on.

[Phil]

Guy that criticizes Rico all the time throwing a drink.

[Brandon]

It's just. Yeah.

[Phil]

Interesting parallels. Yeah.

[Brandon]

Haas. What's up, dude?

[Fitz]

Good haircut.

[Brandon]

Yeah, great haircut.

[Dana]

A lot better every day than meek Phil, huh?

[Brandon]

Yeah, We. I. I want to pre apologize for what's about to happen.

[Dana]

Yes.

[Brandon]

Chase gonna ask you a question, and you're gonna want to probably kill yourself. Don't do that.

[Dana]

It's only Chase question.

[Brandon]

It's only Chase question. None of us co Sign with this, but Jay. Go ahead. You take it away.

[Chase]

All right, so let me preface with. This is for a layman such as myself, someone who's not good at baseball.

[Dana]

I already hate it, but keep going.

[Chase]

Okay, so do you think it would be potentially easier to hit a major league fastball via a pitcher or pitching machine about 100 miles an hour if your eye. If you're blindfolded, because. And let me lay out the logic.

[Brandon]

Wait, versus what?

[Fitz]

Easier than what?

[Chase]

Versus. Versus. Not blindfolded.

[Brandon]

So.

[Chase]

So let me.

[Dana]

Let.

[Chase]

Let me. Let me explain my point. And again, this is not. This is not for, like, you can hit a major league pitch as soon as I can't hit 60 miles an hour. So there's no way if I am seeing and waiting for a pitch that I am guessing correctly. I'm saying if I'm blindfolded and I'm standing in the batter's box and I'm just swinging 100 times, I can hopefully time it up and get A what would be the equivalent of a single thoughts?

[Dana]

A single.

[Brandon]

How are you going to time it

[Dana]

up if you can't see?

[Brandon]

You might not even find the biter's box. How did this conversation even come up, Jay?

[TJ]

I need to know how his brain. No.

[Chase]

Well, no. You guys were like, do you think it's easier to score 40 points against the Wizards or hit a major league fastball?

[Brandon]

And that was a joke.

[TJ]

That wasn't a real hyp.

[Brandon]

We were joking, and we were. Kyle was setting me up to. On Bam. To get Brandon more mad.

[Deutsch]

All right.

[Chase]

I didn't see. I did not. I did not comprehend that you thought

[Brandon]

I was serious when I said it'd be easier to score 40 against the Wizards.

[Chase]

Yeah.

[Phil]

What else?

[Brandon]

You thought I was serious when I said I could score 40 against the wizard in 15 minutes.

[Chase]

Oh, no, no. Not that you could, but, like, that it would be.

[Brandon]

Be easy.

[Chase]

But I'm just saying, like, there ain't no way I can hit a major league fastball. But if I'm against a pitching machine or a pitcher pitching in a regular cadence, not like, you know, there's 30 seconds or whatever the pitch clock is between pitches, but it's like, I'm in there. It's batting practice. I'm going. I'm trying to get into a rhythm. I feel like I could maybe make contact with one and get a single out of 100.

[TJ]

He had his answer five minutes ago, so.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

From you with the use of your eyes or without the use of your

[TJ]

eyes, I'm sure your time's valuable.

[Dana]

Okay.

[TJ]

I'm never getting this 10 minutes back in my life.

[Brandon]

I cannot believe you just took time out of my day. I'm asking.

[TJ]

All right, so wait, what's.

[Dana]

Great to see you.

[Brandon]

Great seeing you. Great haircut, Haas. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we'll see. Hopefully come through Chicago sometime. We'd love to have you on, by the way. We tested it out. I did 10 pitches. Wiffle ball with Che. With a blindfold.

[Fitz]

He did not even.

[Chase]

I got on base. I got him.

[Brandon]

Base. Oh, yeah. I hit him in the eye on the 10th throw on purpose.

[Dana]

Why didn't you get out of the way, Jay?

[Brandon]

Do you think you would?

[Chase]

If I was seeing it, I would have gotten out of the way.

[Brandon]

Yeah, good point. Good point. Why don't you get out of the way?

[Greg]

You guys are great.

[Brandon]

Jay, be better. I love you guys. All right, thanks. Ha. Oh, this perfect response.

[TJ]

That was damn near disrespectful for us

[Chase]

to do to him.

[Brandon]

He's like, he's. He's gonna look back and be like, that was. That was the worst five minutes of my life.

[Dana]

He might never. He's never coming on again.

[Brandon]

No, he will because he likes us. He doesn't like Che.

[Chase]

No, he's. He's a buddy of mine.

[Brandon]

All right, Jay, call Gunner.

[Chase]

Can. Can we zoom or no?

[Brandon]

Just call him.

[Emma]

Do you want to rework your argument?

[Brandon]

No.

[Fitz]

I think you're digging your heels in more. No matter.

[Dana]

His question is. His question.

[Brandon]

The fact that he didn't know that the. The lead up to that was a joke is just.

[Emma]

Oh, the 40.

[Brandon]

Yeah. Troubling.

[Fitz]

Well, what's your instrument asking a question given his answer? Because his answer is, I would be better blindfolded.

[Dana]

Just don't want him to change anything because he was so confident with it.

[Chase]

All right, I'm calling him. So he's. He's in the World Baseball Classic.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

In a home run last year.

[TJ]

These feel like prank calls.

[Chase]

You see, I hit, too. What's up, buddy? How we doing?

[Dana]

Not a whole lot.

[Brandon]

Not a whole lot.

[Chase]

I have a baseball question. You're. You're live to tape on the yak right now. I want to make sure. I want to get your opinion as obviously very good hitter. So this question. Take major league skills out of it. This is just a layman who stinks at baseball. Never played past little league. I can't hit 100 miles an hour. Obviously, most. A lot of MLB guys can. But do you think I would have a better chance hitting, getting what would be the equivalent of an MLB single if I was blindfolded against a pitching machine, 100 pitches? Do you think I could rip one for a single if I could hopefully time it up versus non blindfolded?

[Brandon]

No, because I've tried hitting with closing

[TJ]

my eyes before, and it is very scary.

[Brandon]

And even harder. Okay, perfect. Thank you, Gunner.

[Dana]

Perfect.

[Brandon]

Wait, why did he dress perfect?

[Dana]

Okay. All right.

[Chase]

Thanks, Gunner.

[Brandon]

Oh, man. There you go. You got a guy who tried it.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Chase]

Perfect.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[TJ]

But I wonder if Burner had the same thought.

[Chase]

Like, this is scary.

[Dana]

Che, is there any. Any sports scenario where you would be better off blindfolded than having eyes? Any. Any in all the world of sports, Right? Catching,

[Brandon]

Pole vault.

[Dana]

Pole vault, goal ball. No, the sport where you have to know, yeah, you would be better at go ball if you could see.

[Chase]

Yeah, you can. You got a.

[Dana]

You would be better if you could see. Do you disagree?

[Chase]

It would be breaking the rules.

[Phil]

He's right there.

[Dana]

Shut up, teacher.

[Phil]

If you could see they'd still give you a blindfold.

[TJ]

But the game would be easier if you could see the game has a blindfold regardless.

[Fitz]

It doesn't. They're blind.

[Phil]

They were a blindfold.

[Dana]

There's.

[Fitz]

They're blind, though, right?

[Dana]

How many? 800 MLB players. I'm just. Do you think out of 800 MLB players, he would get one? Yes.

[Fitz]

No. And he would still after be like, I don't care. I think I'm right.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Chase]

If Gunner tried it, then that's fair. Like, I. I will take that and hand up. I was wrong.

[Dana]

In what scenario did he try.

[TJ]

I'm curious.

[Dana]

Batting practice, and he was trying to.

[Chase]

Just goofing.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Greg]

Just goof.

[Dana]

Probably just goofing.

[Fitz]

Just.

[Brandon]

Probably just goofing a little.

[Dana]

Yeah. Great question.

[Brandon]

This is. Yeah. I mean, we're coming off a heater with the statue of Liberty, and we.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Just threw it all. All goodwill. We've had one step forward, two step.

[Greg]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

What to do.

[Emma]

It's blindfold.

[Fitz]

Kyle hadn't even adjusted his jeans yet.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

That's how early in the show we were. He hadn't even noticed that his jeans were bunching off. Yeah.

[Brandon]

We're in the preamble.

[Emma]

Easier with the blindfold.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Chase]

You want a conversation starter?

[Brandon]

Yeah, sure.

[Fitz]

Oh, dude, I'm kind of sad that Che's not going to a batting cage.

[Brandon]

Yeah. I think we need to get you.

[Fitz]

I still want to see you in a batting cage, but tight to.

[Brandon]

We set you up in a bad engage.

[TJ]

What if he did it?

[Chase]

Yeah, guys, what if. What if I did it?

[Dana]

I think you'd win.

[Brandon]

Let's get you at a batting cage tomorrow. You can be the halftime show of the Y off. Yeah.

[Phil]

We'll call around.

[Brandon]

All right.

[Chase]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Perfect.

[TJ]

But even if he hits one blindfolded, that's not a win. He would have to hit more blindfolded than he did.

[Brandon]

Correct. You have to try as hard as you can.

[Chase]

I can't hit hit 100 miles an hour. Is.

[Brandon]

Is this. Are we now. Let's just pause. Are we setting ourselves up that he's gonna end up hitting one blindfolded?

[TJ]

Yes.

[Brandon]

I hit any. And then we're gonna look like idiots.

[TJ]

That's how things work in Chase world.

[Dana]

Hey, you're not gonna know when the pitch is coming. You're not gonna.

[TJ]

I mean, a batting cage.

[Chase]

Swing the first 10 times.

[TJ]

Batting cage. You hear the release. It's gonna be probably straight down the middle most of the time.

[Fitz]

What's the fastest batting cage you could find in?

[TJ]

I think sluggers has like 80 buggers is pretty fast.

[Dana]

Yeah, 80 would. 80 would do, right?

[Brandon]

I tell you guys, I went to a. I went to a birthday party at Sluggers recently. One of the weirdest things ever.

[Emma]

Was it men's birthday?

[Brandon]

No, it was a seven year old's birthday party.

[Emma]

Okay. And that's a bar, right?

[Brandon]

It was my. It was upstairs at Sluggers. It was my son. My son's friend's birthday party. And right next to the birthday party was a bachelor party.

[Dana]

Oh, wow.

[Emma]

This is a bar.

[Brandon]

It's a bar. It's a bar that I've been drunk at many, many times.

[Dana]

It would be awesome though if it wasn't like, like if you didn't have a bachelor party next there. Awesome kids.

[TJ]

I think that's a weirder bachelor party place than pretty bad.

[Brandon]

Well, it was.

[TJ]

It's like a pit stop.

[Brandon]

Yeah, it was a pit stop. Also, shout out those guys. They were cool as their bachelor's name was Paul and they all had Chris Paul jerseys. Different jerseys.

[TJ]

That's cool.

[Brandon]

Yeah, it was cool. Yeah.

[TJ]

Was it because the parents kind of wanted to drink on the.

[Brandon]

Yeah, I guess the only. Like I showed up and they're like, you want a beer? It was 11am on a Saturday. I was with my son. I was like, I think I'm good. Good.

[Dana]

It is a sick arcade.

[Gunner]

It's like a five year old birthday at a brewery over here.

[Brandon]

Not a sick arcade.

[Dana]

It's not.

[Brandon]

There's four games at work.

[TJ]

Really? Oh, that work. I've never really gone beyond the batting cages.

[Brandon]

No. But it was just very bizarre because I've been there many times hammered and then I was just standing there like singing Happy birthday to a 7 year

[TJ]

old getting war flashbacks.

[Dana]

Yeah, yeah. It's weird.

[TJ]

There's plenty of other arcades and play places, but tons of but.

[Brandon]

Yeah. All right, Che, do the Experian ad read before you do a thought starter.

Save the Thought Starter and bring Greg in. I like that Greg. Greg will want to be in on this Thought Starter thing.

[Dana]

Let's go, Greg.

[Emma]

Pick Greg's brain.

[Dana]

Did he not know his name? I forgot. His name isn't great.

[TJ]

It's not Greg. Yeah, his last name's Greg.

[Fitz]

Yeah. No, his last name's not Greg either.

[Brandon]

Wait, what?

[Dana]

Gregory.

[Fitz]

It's Gregory.

[TJ]

Okay.

[Brandon]

Oh, here he is.

[Phil]

Arseal.

[Fitz]

Greg.

[Brandon]

I wish. The fog machine. We can't use the fog machine anymore.

[Dana]

One of the chairs.

[Brandon]

This is it.

[TJ]

The last time you were in that chair, your life changed.

[Greg]

Indeed it did.

[Dana]

For good. Oh, good.

[Chase]

Yeah, for good.

[Brandon]

For good.

[Chase]

Okay.

[Brandon]

Good.

[Emma]

Better.

[Dana]

Yep.

[Greg]

For better.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Chase]

How has your.

[Dana]

What's.

[TJ]

What's been going on since then? That day?

[Greg]

I mean, the first three weeks. The Chiefs had the worst downfall in the last five years.

[TJ]

And didn't a guy leave the competition because he was from Kansas?

[Greg]

I thought you were going to say leave the stadium early.

[TJ]

No, no, that was you.

[Greg]

That.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Ron, I forgot all about quit on the Chief season.

[Fitz]

I forgot all about that. Yes.

[Dana]

Yeah. Or at least the Chiefs are still in Kansas City. Missouri.

[Greg]

About that.

[Dana]

Not.

[Greg]

Not for long.

[Brandon]

Oh, what happened?

[Greg]

Yeah, they moved to Kansas. They're moving to Kansas.

[Brandon]

Ah, yeah.

[Greg]

The Royals might be gone too, so mother. But they're staying in Missouri. Hopefully.

[Brandon]

Are you gonna move?

[Greg]

No, I'll stay in Missouri probably.

[Brandon]

I think you gotta move to Kansas.

[Greg]

I mean, I can.

[Brandon]

I will.

[Dana]

That'll be pretty good.

[Greg]

Yeah, but no, we're just. Just blogging. Mizzou basketball Royal Royals are about to start and then get ready for the World Cup. College World.

[Fitz]

I was telling Nick about Mizzou basketball. What makes him special. But you know better than me. I don't know if you wanted.

[Greg]

Nothing makes him special. We're just a good team that should make the tournament. I mean, I'm expecting one win in the tournament, like that's it.

[Dana]

Yeah, I mean, yeah, but that dude coming off the bench is a shooter. What?

[Greg]

Jacob Cruz? Yeah, yeah. 35 the Mohawk. Yeah, he just went lights out that one game. Other than that, he hasn't been great.

[Dana]

Yeah, but he was lights out that one game.

[Greg]

Yeah, it was good though. I mean I enjoyed it as a mid major guy.

[Brandon]

Who you got in the wcc?

[Greg]

Oh wait, no, that already ended. West Coast Conference. Gonzaga.

[Deutsch]

He's good.

[Greg]

Well, no, I messed up on that.

[Gunner]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Yeah, you're good. Damn good.

[Chase]

Just strong.

[Brandon]

You're good.

[Greg]

I try my best.

[Brandon]

Yeah. Trying to get you there.

[Fitz]

Mark Mitchell playing?

[Greg]

I sure hope so.

[Fitz]

Yeah, he's a man.

[Brandon]

What about the A10?

[Greg]

The A10?

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Greg]

I. Not LA. I'll tell you that.

[Brandon]

Oh, they lost. Yeah.

[Greg]

Me and Jerry. Yeah, that was bad.

[Brandon]

He's good.

[Greg]

Miscommunication.

[Brandon]

The team that just lost an hour ago is not going to win it.

[Greg]

Well, no, I'm. Me and Jerry had miscommunication. He bet first half Moneyline and I wrote it with him, but I just. I took full money line and once we figured that out, Saint Bonaventure went on a 13 over on. So that was. That was into that and Jerry said I was dead in pretty much.

[TJ]

Oh, no.

[Deutsch]

But we're back.

[Greg]

We're back.

[Brandon]

Are you letting Jerry. So we're doing bracket busters on Monday. Teams haven't been revealed, but I. I know a couple of the teams and I know Jerry is with Greg and Jerry has already told Greg he's not getting any of the money if they win.

[Greg]

That was the first interaction.

[TJ]

You're not getting any of the money.

[Greg]

I said, what's up, Jer? Were on the same team. He said, you're not getting any money.

[TJ]

Why is that?

[Emma]

And you're fine with that?

[Greg]

No, he said. He said, I'll give you a dinner.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Greg]

And then he's. I was like, what the hell? He's like, but you're. You're going to pick the team for us. So I was like, I'm going to pick the team and do all the

[Fitz]

work and not get the reward.

[Greg]

But then he said, are you full time or part time? And I said I was full time. He said, oh, you can get money.

[Brandon]

So

[TJ]

would make way more sense to give money to.

[Brandon]

Yeah, that.

[Greg]

That does make sense. I. Yeah, Yeah. I didn't think about that part.

[Brandon]

He doesn't get to decide that.

[Greg]

Okay.

[Brandon]

Yeah, you get. You get a full share. Perfect. Full share.

[Dana]

Oh, Kic, that's going to be tough.

[Fitz]

Wow.

[Brandon]

Oh, no.

[Dana]

It's a tough guy to get some.

[Brandon]

Pitch us how you'll pitch kck.

[Greg]

I said, you want to go out with Deutsch? And I. He said, probably.

[Dana]

Okay, cut right to the quick on that one.

[Greg]

Yeah. He said he has to get stuff done before his holiday this weekend, so.

[Emma]

Holiday?

[Brandon]

I don't both going Christmas shopping.

[TJ]

What's Kate have to get done?

[Greg]

I didn't ask you.

[Emma]

Hey, prep for the holiday.

[Greg]

You like beer? This is. This weekend is for you.

[TJ]

Yeah.

[Emma]

True. Are you a beer guy or.

[Greg]

Oh, bring back beers.

[Emma]

You're purely beer.

[Greg]

Yeah, unless I'm, like, energy deprived, then vodka Red Bull. So.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Emma]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

There's a chance you might be competing tomorrow.

[Greg]

[Brandon]

Yeah. So I think you might be.

[Greg]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Are you ready?

[Greg]

I. I can be ready.

[Dana]

I can't go out and.

[Greg]

No, I think that's. No, I honestly, I think that's the. That's the right.

[Dana]

Oh, you're gonna warm up.

[Greg]

Gonna warm up.

[Brandon]

Stops.

[Dana]

Okay.

[Greg]

I'm gonna warm up tonight.

[Dana]

So you're gonna come in Drop tomorrow. Tomorrow.

[Greg]

I did not say that. But I do think Deutsch and I are gonna do a Four Downs episode after.

[Brandon]

What's Four Downs?

[TJ]

That's the show he did.

[Greg]

That's it. That one. That one episode showed.

[TJ]

He did it with Dana in front of the yog station.

[Greg]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

In front of the Drink four beers and ask four questions.

[Brandon]

Oh, yeah, that's right. Four down. Who could forget?

[Greg]

I know I've only done one episode, but it did. Good on. It was really my pages.

[Dana]

So maybe do another episode.

[Fitz]

I agree, but no, go ahead.

[Brandon]

Can I. Yeah. I don't want Four Downs to, like, become too big because it's kind of like my favorite niche show.

[Dana]

Yeah. Quarterly.

[Brandon]

Be careful.

[Dana]

You can't have a cult following if.

[Brandon]

Yeah, I agree.

[Greg]

I mean, I only do it when. Damn, it's snowing. Sorry.

[Dana]

Focus.

[TJ]

Correct.

[Deutsch]

Sorry.

[Greg]

Adhd. No, I'm. I only do it when I come in the office. So whenever I'm here, we'll do it.

[Dana]

Okay.

[Brandon]

Cool.

[Dana]

The biggest snow ever. Yeah.

[TJ]

Those are some big plates, right?

[Fitz]

Good call, Greg. How has. How's the reception been from the stoolies since you've been hired? Hired? You feel like you're feeling the love are people giving you?

[Greg]

I mean, it's both. Like, whenever I first got hired, there was a lot of hate. Just saying I don't deserve it.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Greg]

Didn't really deal with it.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Then I get to. You or do you?

[Greg]

I've learned. I've learned not to. Not to let it. So that first month was a little hard. But we're good now and then.

[Fitz]

You got enough people to love you.

[Greg]

Yeah. The green drag thing.

[TJ]

Yeah, that was that a turning point.

[Brandon]

That was a turning point.

[Greg]

I didn't think any of it. Whenever I did that, like.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Greg]

Yeah.

[TJ]

So you're here for 15 days.

[Greg]

I'm here through Saturday at least Sunday morning.

[TJ]

Okay. Is there. Are we gonna have one wing anywhere?

[Greg]

I don't know. I mean, I might.

[Dana]

Okay, good plan.

[Greg]

At least have one beer. Hopefully if Mizzou wins tomorrow, so. But I don't know. Wing could be done. Should be done.

[TJ]

And you're streaming in the cave. Do you have any. Anything up your sleeve for a memorable moment?

[Brandon]

Oh, any gags? Any tricks? Any hijinks, drinks?

[Greg]

I already know Bosco is gonna hate me, so that's. Yeah.

[TJ]

Why do you think he's gonna hate you?

[Greg]

I mean, you. You were part of a clip. You showed him a green Greg video, and he said he better watch his mouth.

[TJ]

Like, wait, I did?

[Greg]

Yeah. Well, it's on my.

[Brandon]

Why don't that sounds like. Say that you're a writer and just. I. I will.

[Greg]

I literally have said I'm a writer.

[Brandon]

You know, what you got to do is. You got it. When he comes in today, just be like, hey, alliance.

[Fitz]

Yeah, I agree.

[Greg]

But he said I need to watch my mouth, so I'm like, why would you say I haven't said a single word to Rico at all? And I haven't talked.

[TJ]

You're letting too many people bully you, Greg.

[Brandon]

No, you're Greg. No, no.

[Greg]

Me and Jerry.

[Emma]

You're a made man in these.

[Fitz]

Jerry.

[Greg]

We're good with Jerry. We're good with Jerry. We'll be good with Rico. Like.

[Brandon]

Like, you're Greg. You. You demand respect.

[Greg]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Right. You're Barstool.

[Dana]

Greg.

[Fitz]

Greg. There's only one.

[Brandon]

Yeah. Have you been recognized?

[Greg]

Yeah, it's one guy when I was out at a bar, he came up to me. He said, I don't appreciate you for who you are, but I like you for what you are.

[Brandon]

Wow.

[TJ]

What a mean man.

[Emma]

I was this in real life, I

[Greg]

swear to God, exactly what he said. And I. I looked at him, I was like, what?

[Dana]

So was he telling you, I don't like you at all, but you work at Barstool, so it's cool.

[Greg]

And it's because he's a KU fan, so he hates my guts.

[Brandon]

Ah.

[Greg]

But when he said that, I was like, I. I didn't know what was about to go down.

[Brandon]

Like, didn't know he might have him up.

[Greg]

Oh, here's the clip.

[Chase]

Never been greener.

[Fitz]

I got you, dude. This is me.

[Greg]

You better be careful next week.

[Chase]

Never been green.

[Dana]

He.

[TJ]

He was in a weird mood that night.

[Greg]

You were, too, for him, but, yeah.

[Dana]

No.

[Greg]

Been recognized a couple times, so. It's funny.

[Brandon]

Sick.

[Greg]

It's weird. My friends don't, like, believe it.

[Dana]

So are you green all the time?

[Brandon]

Your friends don't believe that you're Greg? No. Like, no.

[Greg]

Like, whenever. Like, if I ever got recognized and my friends just couldn't believe it, like. Like that my life is this now.

[Brandon]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Greg]

Pretty cool. Like, this is amazing. Like, I've loved the last three months.

[Deutsch]

Yeah.

[Emma]

We appreciate you.

[Greg]

I appreciate you.

[Emma]

You're a good character.

[Greg]

Thank you.

[Emma]

You're fun.

[Greg]

Thank you.

[Emma]

You roll with the punches. You're amusing. Keep being yourself.

[Greg]

Perfect.

[Brandon]

Keep being Greg.

[Greg]

Will do.

[Brandon]

Never lose.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[TJ]

What we're telling you is don't stop.

[Greg]

Oh, I don't plan on stopping anytime soon.

[Fitz]

Love to hear that. I'd love to hear that.

[Brandon]

Good.

[Emma]

Any other interests besides, like, Missouri?

[Fitz]

Sports? Sports.

[Emma]

Beer?

[Greg]

No. No, probably not.

[Dana]

That's it.

[Emma]

Probably.

[Fitz]

What's your relationship?

[Brandon]

This guy's good, man. What good? He's.

[Chase]

He's building up a wall.

[Fitz]

What's your relationship status?

[Gunner]

Have you been getting ladies in the DMs? Green, Greg?

[Greg]

No, Single.

[Brandon]

Are you single? So you're.

[Dana]

You're Open?

[Brandon]

Are your DMs open? Open?

[Greg]

I mean, yeah.

[Fitz]

How was your newfound famed? Helped in that department?

[Greg]

Not one bit.

[Brandon]

Wait, I just realized something. What are you gonna do on Saturday?

[Greg]

Oh, stream.

[Brandon]

Yeah, but like, I'm saying, like, the whole. The whole city's gonna be green.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

What are you. You're gonna be.

[Dana]

You should.

[Fitz]

You should know.

[Dana]

It's like a.

[Brandon]

Where's Waldo? The page with all the Waldos.

[Emma]

It's like that.

[Greg]

I mean, I'm here, so, though.

[TJ]

Yeah, but you're going to be.

[Dana]

You're.

[TJ]

Everybody's going to be looking like you. How are you going to stand out, Greg?

[Brandon]

Right?

[Greg]

I mean, I got ball to watch on Saturday, so hopefully you have other green outfits. No.

[TJ]

Can we sell? Can we sell?

[Greg]

I'm wearing Mizzou gear because, like, I'm here for Mizzou.

[Dana]

The green shirt says gray.

[TJ]

No, I think like a red shirt that says green.

[Dana]

Greg. I might.

[Greg]

I might have a green hoodie in the suitcase, but. Yeah.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Greg]

Okay.

[Dana]

Oh. First of all, we got to get you flush with green stuff. You got to be green every day.

[Emma]

You do realize this, right? Like. Yeah, I know the implication of being green and what that entails.

[TJ]

You know, you're plenty green now. I'll give it to you.

[Dana]

Thank you. Yeah. Barstool headquarters as green, Greg. And it's St. Patrick's Day coming up.

[Brandon]

I mean, what. It's the perfect store. This.

[Dana]

The.

[Greg]

You're Not. Oh, well, I mean, okay, Saturday, I do have like, some merch from barstool to wear, so.

[TJ]

Love that.

[Dana]

Is it green?

[Greg]

Yeah, I mean, it's a St. Patty's Day.

[Brandon]

Like, perfect.

[Greg]

Yeah, I got, I did literally bring that first Saturday to wear, so stay

[Fitz]

green so you don't have to get green.

[Brandon]

Did you get sent that or did you buy that?

[Greg]

I bought it.

[Brandon]

Damn, dude, you shouldn't buy that.

[Greg]

I didn't.

[Brandon]

You let me know. I'll get you, I'll get you a hook up.

[TJ]

He'll pamper you.

[Brandon]

We'll go 20 off at the store for you.

[Dana]

Anything green you need.

[Brandon]

Promo code, Greg at the store. Oh, we might have to do that

[Dana]

just on green items.

[Brandon]

No, just everything, Greg.

[TJ]

Yeah, it's good for brand awareness.

[Greg]

Yeah, people won't know who I am, but saving them money.

[Brandon]

People know who you are. You're Greg.

[Emma]

Easy to type, Greg.

[Brandon]

I feel like there's a little lack of confidence out of you, Greg, and I need you to be. I need you to have the swagger to braggadocious.

[Fitz]

You want to do something legendary right now.

[Greg]

What?

[Dana]

I don't know.

[Fitz]

Leaving it open to you. You.

[Greg]

I mean, I can go.

[Brandon]

Y.

[TJ]

That does sound.

[Dana]

Does.

[Emma]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Stana here?

[Greg]

I think so.

[Fitz]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Dana]

Guess got a new episode.

[Fitz]

You do that, Greg.

[Brandon]

Do you think it'd be easier to hit 100 mph fastball blindfolded? Not blindfolded.

[Greg]

1. Having Eric Hosmer on here was sick as like grew up watching that guy. Like he won us a world series so that I, I, I could barely hear what was going on. Yeah, not blindfolded.

[TJ]

Y, like, right answer.

[Greg]

What? Blindfolded just makes it worse.

[Brandon]

Like.

[Fitz]

Yeah, yeah.

[Greg]

So my next door neighbor, he's in the farm system for the Marlins and he's a pitcher. He throws like 98. And like, he like says if he gave me 100 attempts, I will not hit a single ball.

[Brandon]

I'm like, but did you tell him what if I was blindfolded?

[Greg]

No. And I'm gonna probably message him tonight.

[Brandon]

Yeah, yeah.

[TJ]

To maybe get that set up.

[Brandon]

Shay, that was not a point for you.

[Chase]

That was Nobody can hit 100 mile hour fastball but you.

[Emma]

I was a blindfold making.

[Greg]

I didn't hear your stance, Jay. What was it?

[Dana]

He doesn't.

[TJ]

Basically saying you'd be better if you were disabled.

[Chase]

It that you better chance getting a hit or that you could, you could probably get a hit if you had a hundred chances and you were blindfolded. Assuming it was a regular Kick cadence,

[Dana]

seeing his arm moving averse.

[Greg]

What.

[Emma]

But what would make it easy?

[Brandon]

Nothing makes it easier, Che.

[Chase]

I. I don't.

[TJ]

You're not accounting for, like, being able to adjust in real time. Like, you'll see the first one.

[Dana]

You're trying to say you.

[Chase]

You.

[TJ]

An hour.

[Dana]

You have zero chance to hit 100 mile an hour fastball. And your chances go up because it takes your abilities out and just leaves it up to pure chance. Correct.

[Chase]

Bingo.

[Dana]

But the chance is not.

[Brandon]

It's not zero.

[Dana]

The. The chance. No, doesn't. Guys, you're not gonna get close.

[TJ]

You can't beat that.

[Dana]

And plus, if you see it. That's actually pure chance. If you see it and just you try to guess, then when you see, you let your eyes inform where the guess is.

[Brandon]

What's the old. What's the old saying? Like, don't argue with a few fool.

[Dana]

You're right.

[Fitz]

Sorry.

[Dana]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Brandon]

People won't tell the know the difference between.

[Dana]

And 83 points is 83 points.

[Brandon]

Drag or no, they'll drag you down into their level.

[TJ]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Beat you with experience. Yeah. That's what's happening.

[TJ]

Don't stoop.

[Brandon]

He's beating experience.

[Chase]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Greg, what'd you think about BAM. Autobioscoring83. Is that the coolest thing you've ever seen?

[Greg]

I mean, how he got it. No, but

[Brandon]

you respect Kobe's 81 more?

[Greg]

Probably. I mean.

[Brandon]

Yeah, he did.

[Greg]

On what, like 27 less free throws.

[Brandon]

Yeah. And they were down.

[Dana]

Not 10 less field goals. He had more field goals.

[Greg]

Okay, well, still 27 less free throws.

[Dana]

Yeah. Yeah. He's a guard. This guy's a center. That was getting fouled on.

[Greg]

Okay, but he was getting intentionally fouled. Yeah.

[Dana]

At the end.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Greg]

How many points did that get him? I didn't really watch his highlights, how many he scored.

[Dana]

He had 36 of 43 free throws. He was 20 of 43 on. On. On field goals.

[Greg]

I'm talking like, fourth quarter lasts like three minutes. How many points did he.

[Dana]

I think he went from 77 to 83 in the last two minutes. If.

[Greg]

If he would get underneath 81, would this like. Yeah, we would be like, talking about this, but is it just because he beat Kobe? Like, that's why this is such a.

[Dana]

I don't know why we feel like we got to be Kobe's protector there.

[Greg]

Well, no, because. No, because it makes him the second in the most in like, the modern era.

[Brandon]

He has the only one alive.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Who's.

[Greg]

I didn't want to say it. I didn't want to say it.

[Brandon]

Well, I mean, Kobe is dead.

[Dana]

You can unspoken is still dead.

[Greg]

Yeah, true. He is still dead. Oh yeah. By the way, The Bar Stool 15 did happen in remote, so.

[Dana]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Brandon]

Sorry I had to point.

[Greg]

No, I mean it's. And I did not get a no nose job. I would love one, but it's all right.

[Dana]

Right.

[Gunner]

Favorite like fat kid meal. Now that fat butt.

[Brandon]

What's your favorite meal?

[TJ]

The first thing to say to the man.

[Dana]

What's your favorite

[Gunner]

meal?

[TJ]

I mean, like, you've been having a lot.

[Greg]

Yeah, no kidding.

[Gunner]

You're like cheat day meal. If you had like.

[Greg]

Well, I have a lot of cheat days. So.

[Emma]

Do you like the. The big AZ cheeseburger? The one that comes in plastic wrap and you microwave of it.

[Greg]

I've never heard of that.

[Phil]

That is.

[TJ]

That is construction worker slop.

[Emma]

I used to eat those.

[Brandon]

Really?

[Greg]

Out of the vending machine.

[Emma]

I saw a picture online and I instantly could taste it. It's the worst product ever made.

[Chase]

Oh yeah.

[Emma]

I would get them all the time. You've never seen those somewhere in vending machine. I think somewhere in Kent had it. Maybe it was Circle K. Yeah.

[TJ]

Like it was the. The vending machines where you had to like pay and it would unlock this thing. You would slide it open.

[Gunner]

I've never seen.

[Greg]

We were going through. At my last. Last job, we were going through a warehouse house and that's like their vending machine. It was just all easy, like products. Yeah.

[Emma]

Big, you know, the easy product.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Greg]

And one of them was like a roast beef sandwich. And I'm just like that.

[Emma]

Why did I eat so many of them?

[TJ]

I had them too.

[Emma]

I think we're that can't taste for free food delivery. Pre having money.

[TJ]

I think I bought them at the bowling.

[Emma]

You want a cheeseburger?

[Greg]

That seems like something you would buy.

[Gunner]

Yeah, they had roast beef version of that vending machine roast beef.

[Fitz]

This was Ohio.

[Greg]

Like that.

[Emma]

This was a. Yeah.

[Fitz]

Or West Virginia.

[TJ]

I did there.

[Dana]

I'm sure west too.

[Emma]

Adam.

[TJ]

Yeah, I have some boys that love them just a bag.

[Emma]

I would eat them all the time. So maybe I did.

[Gunner]

But what's like a Missouri? Like, I'm. I'm hungover. I'm getting everything today.

[Greg]

What's your go to O. I mean, recently I've been on just pizza. Well, no, I mean like, obviously the Missouri thing is barbecue. But like that's too heavy for when you're hungover.

[Fitz]

You and Rick are at each other's thr.

[TJ]

Oh, you're not. You're not cool with White Boy R Rick?

[Greg]

I mean, I don't know how to describe it. Like, I. He wanted to go behind Titus's back, have me do a video of Indiana beating Ohio State if they did that. So then I told Tate about it and then did a video on Rick when Ohio State beat Indiana.

[Fitz]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Greg]

And Rick felt offended.

[Brandon]

You do need a beef. Do you want to beef with.

[TJ]

He's got a couple. It sounds like, so far.

[Dana]

I mean, start at the top. Start with Rico.

[Greg]

I'll see how it goes with Rico.

[TJ]

I mean, do you want to practice? Does your mom have a job job?

[Greg]

Yeah.

[Gunner]

You should beef with Lucas.

[TJ]

Yeah, that's a good person to beef with.

[Brandon]

Then I have an idea about, oh, take Lucas down. And then that's what you should do.

[Fitz]

That's actually a really good take.

[Brandon]

Lucas.

[Dana]

I don't think he's ready for Lucas.

[Brandon]

Take Lucas down.

[Greg]

I don't know. I mean, but I have. Okay, I'll say this, like, everyone here has just been nice. Like, yeah, there. I haven't had a reason to hate.

I know, but you. You gotta. You gotta do something.

[Brandon]

You gotta get.

[Fitz]

You gotta get.

[Brandon]

Okay.

[Greg]

Oh, that didn't sound.

[Fitz]

There's Rick and Greg. That was pretty nasty. It got pretty heated.

[Brandon]

You could tell

[Chase]

This is Hot Barstool's newest what rivalry?

[Greg]

This was like, my one friend I had on Twitter.

[Fitz]

So, Rick, you. You asked him, tell me the story, how it happened.

[Greg]

Do you want me to read?

[Fitz]

Yeah, just read what he read, what he texted.

[TJ]

Did you.

[Fitz]

I mean, I want to understand what exactly happened here.

[Greg]

Rick said, I'm knocking heavy on wood as I type this, but if Indiana

[Brandon]

wins, what is that?

[Fitz]

Are you jack off?

[Emma]

No, I didn't want to jinx anything.

[Fitz]

Is that me jacking off? I'm knocking heavy on wood.

[Deutsch]

Might have heavy.

[Brandon]

Knocking on wood.

[Chase]

You knock on wood.

[Fitz]

Yeah, but knocking heavy.

[Greg]

Heavy.

[Fitz]

You're knocking heavy, though.

[Dana]

Guys hate each other.

[Greg]

Very much.

[Fitz]

I tried to step.

[Brandon]

I didn't want it to backfire as it.

[Emma]

Exactly what happened.

[Greg]

I mean his exact. Brandon give me help whenever I walk.

[Brandon]

Well, that's Brandon.

[Greg]

No, you looked at me dead at the eyes and then shook Reek's hand.

[Dana]

Yeah, I was full. I was, I was messing with you.

[Greg]

Yeah, that was.

[Dana]

Acted like I was.

[Greg]

Yeah. You got me giving you a handshake.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[TJ]

What about White Sox Dave? Have you talked to him?

[Phil]

Yeah.

[TJ]

Was it good?

[Greg]

Yeah, I helped him with him and Donnie's thing today.

[Dana]

So you ate ice cream?

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Greg]

Yeah. Didn't taste great.

[Brandon]

Greg, by the way, did do the Chinese workout with me this morning.

[TJ]

What?

[Greg]

I literally thought I was going to pop both my Achilles after the first three workouts. Yeah, like it, it hurt. So.

[Brandon]

Yeah, he crushed it though. Didn't complain. Did the whole thing. Ella Griff, also first woman to do it with us.

[Fitz]

Wow.

[Brandon]

Placing a trail and it was she, it made us feel a little like pussies because she just walked by. It was like 15 of us. I was like, ella, come join us. And she joined us. Didn't complain once. The whole time I'm thinking like how Brandon would have gassed out halfway through. She didn't even have workout clothes on.

[Gunner]

I asked her after if it was hard. She came walking around and she was like, oh, is it supposed to be? Oh, I had no idea.

[Brandon]

Damn it, guys. Didn't, didn't break a sweat. That's tough.

[Greg]

It's the minute of the push ups ended. That's just what kills you. Yeah.

[Brandon]

Kills you.

[Fitz]

What about Danny, Greg?

[Brandon]

Just you take out.

[Fitz]

Take out. Yeah. Beef.

[TJ]

We haven't talked much.

[Greg]

I know we haven't. Not yet.

[Fitz]

How he's looking at you.

[Greg]

No, we're good.

[Emma]

He doesn't respect like the basic gist of you.

[Greg]

Oh, that's not nice.

[Fitz]

Every time you come up on the show, Danny stays quiet.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Doesn't say a thing.

[Greg]

I mean, he's quiet for most of it.

[Fitz]

Oh,

[TJ]

Got yourself a beef.

[Greg]

Also, he just said kid. Do you guys know how old I am? Everyone in the cave is shocked by my age.

[Dana]

Wait.

[Emma]

Yeah. Why would I feel like I'm not

[Fitz]

going to be shocked?

[Brandon]

No, at all.

[Emma]

Years off.

[Fitz]

What?

[Greg]

I agree.

[Brandon]

I, I.

[Fitz]

Are you 43?

[Emma]

No, you're.

[Brandon]

You're somewhere between 23 and 26.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Greg]

I said, no, I'm 24. And Chuck thought I was, so I nailed it.

[Brandon]

No, not shocking at all.

[Greg]

Thought I was 33 and had a kid and a wife at home.

[Dana]

What?

[Fitz]

What?

[TJ]

Oh, you Must have confused another competitor.

[Dana]

Confused you with himself yourself.

[Greg]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Yeah. Nick, what were the other competitors names?

[TJ]

Papa Best.

[Brandon]

Oh.

[TJ]

Big Boots.

[Fitz]

Scoobs. Scoobs.

[Phil]

Scoobs.

[Dana]

The girl, Kyle.

[TJ]

Who'd you really like?

[Emma]

Caleb?

[Dana]

No, no, it was.

[Brandon]

There's Luke.

[TJ]

It was a first and last name that I really like to say together.

[Greg]

Luke, Moly, Mahali, something like that.

[Dana]

No, it was somebody.

[Brandon]

He should have won up then.

[TJ]

And the girl, Emma. Do you stay in touch with any of those guys?

[Greg]

Yeah, me and Luke are still texting. And then me and Emma, we were friends before this, so.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Greg]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

This is like, kind of like. There's only a select few have gone through that.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Week.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

You know, the bond can't be broken.

[Dana]

Basically been war together.

[Brandon]

Yeah. No different than, like, Bud's training for Navy seal.

[Greg]

Yeah, same thing.

[Brandon]

All right, Craig. Well, get back in there, watch some games.

[Dana]

Watch your back, Craig.

[TJ]

Greg.

[Brandon]

Yeah, Danny. Danny's coming for you now.

[Dana]

Not a Dan. Not a good enemy to have.

[Brandon]

There he goes.

[Dana]

There.

[TJ]

Walk away.

[Dana]

Green as hell, man.

[Brandon]

He's so great.

[Dana]

We got to get that boy some more green.

[TJ]

How do you not save that outfit for St. Patrick's Day? Papa Best never stood a chance.

[Dana]

Never. And I love Papa Best.

[Chase]

I know.

[Fitz]

Juggernaut, the buzz saw.

[Phil]

We got a batting cage for tomorrow.

[Fitz]

Yes.

[Brandon]

All right, so, tj, we'll. We'll plan on that being the halftime.

[Dana]

May I ask a question?

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Phil]

Machine can go up to 105.

[Brandon]

Fuck, yeah.

[Gunner]

Oh, my God.

[Dana]

That competition tomorrow, I'm guessing, I don't know, maybe 10 seconds, 15 seconds. How much gaga do we have around it?

[Brandon]

A lot of.

[Phil]

I'm gonna go ahead and say it's probably about an hour.

[Deutsch]

About the logo.

[Brandon]

It's gonna be great.

[Dana]

We have a logo?

[Brandon]

Yeah, we have a logo. I'm excited to have these guys. These guys are funny guys. That's baseball. World classic. Young off.

[TJ]

Beautiful.

[Fitz]

Wow.

[Brandon]

It's pretty good.

[Dana]

Wow.

[Brandon]

And then game two. Probably not as much pomp and circumstance, but we do have stuff planned for game two as well.

[Dana]

I mean, game one is the big.

[Brandon]

Game one is the big one. I mean, we got to be ready for game one.

[Fitz]

I saw a stat like 78%, I think, of guys that win game one of the Yug off go on to win the series.

[Brandon]

Yes.

[Fitz]

So, yes, that's the we.

[Dana]

I assume we have. We have an anthem singer.

[Brandon]

Oh, yeah.

[Dana]

But these guys are hockey guys. Are we also doing O Canada?

[Brandon]

No.

[Dana]

Okay.

[Brandon]

We got an anthem singer. We got a first pitch thrower. What Else we got tomorrow because I get my days mixed up. We got a halftime show. Now we got a gigantic flag. What else do we have, tj? I know. Friday we have.

[Phil]

I don't know. Don't want to play too much of our hand.

[Brandon]

Yeah. Friday we also have an. A different anthem singer. Possibly bagpipes.

[TJ]

Oh, and I forgot the young.

[Brandon]

Yeah, we're at the hug off too. It is going to be very fun. And those guys are awesome. Dana, he's going to be in a like Jordan schmaltz and. And Rob Gucci. They are. They're so much more quick weighted than Dana. Like, it's just a. I'm on a text chain. It's just me, Dana and those two guys. And Dana's just getting bodied.

[TJ]

Just thumbs up and everything.

[Dana]

He will also call them. That's baseball guys. At least once.

[Brandon]

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. So I.

[Fitz]

That.

[Brandon]

That part. That dynamic is going to be interesting to watch how Dana deals with that.

[TJ]

We need a streaker tomorrow.

[Dana]

Oh, Morgana, the kissing bandit.

[TJ]

That'd be cool. That'd be real cool.

[Dana]

I think so.

[Brandon]

I think everyone should bring cash because we might have 50. 50 open.

[Gunner]

Cash.

[Phil]

All right.

[TJ]

Okay.

[Fitz]

Big day.

[Brandon]

I think we did. Yeah. Huge day. All right, Steven, what was your thoughts? Starter.

[Chase]

Ketchup is not the best thing to do with french fries. Thoughts?

[Dana]

Okay, so ketchup is great with french fries. Are you going with ranch?

[Chase]

I think pretty much. Anytime you get a sandwich and it comes with fries, that sauce is usually better. Like honey mustard. Mustard is probably better. I think it should be more adopted. Even barbecue sauce. It's a nice treat. Thoughts?

[Dana]

Yeah, I think fries and ketchup are a real damn good combination. What? Yes. Big cat.

[Brandon]

I'm, like, trying to care.

[Fitz]

I'm trying to form.

[Brandon]

I try. You try to form an opinion. I don't know.

[TJ]

That first battle sucked. Everything.

[Brandon]

Yeah. Yeah, sure.

[TJ]

Yeah, I'm fine with it.

[Brandon]

Yeah, sure, sure.

[TJ]

Honey mustard's damn good. I think a lot of people would say the catch up isn't their. Do you think number one is cliche?

[Dana]

Throw the ball up to himself blindfolded and hit him.

[Brandon]

No way.

[TJ]

I do. I'm done underestimating this dude.

[Brandon]

Go try Stephen.

[Dana]

10. You get 10 shots. All you got to do is throw it up to yourself and hit it.

[TJ]

It'd be way easier than a pitch should be.

[Dana]

You're controlling the toss.

[Emma]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

This is a trap.

[Phil]

They.

[Dana]

This might be a little trap.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Quick win based on.

[Fitz]

But actually, it actually might be a good trap because it'll empower him.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Just like, walk everything.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

He'll walk back the idea that he lost and be like, no, you guys, I was right the whole time.

[Dana]

Let's give him a little win today.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Dana]

For set up for tomorrow.

[Fitz]

We want him confident going into tomorrow.

[Brandon]

Yeah, I don't think he can do

[Dana]

that, by the way. There's just balls everywhere over there. By way the bet.

[TJ]

Steve, an account. One of our accounts tweeted the. Our new. Our new set of trading cards. Yak trading cards. Oh, and Zah m tweeted your. One of your rare ones.

[Brandon]

Oh, I saw this. So good.

[TJ]

I'm going to have to try. I'm going to buy a box. I think we said the one on the left.

[Dana]

Yeah. Oh, my gosh.

[Brandon]

85 people that are in and out of jail.

[TJ]

I wish.

[Brandon]

I wish. I.

[TJ]

That's a case hit right there.

[Emma]

Oh, my God.

[TJ]

If that's the one that gets sent

[Dana]

off to psa, hold on.

[Phil]

So basically, what we did for this is we. We're doubling up how many packs we're releasing. Releasing twice as many packs as we had last time.

[Dana]

Nice.

[Phil]

They're gonna come out next Monday.

[Brandon]

Ooh.

[TJ]

Good to know if you are a

[Phil]

yak trading card person. Next Monday, 5,000 packs.

[Chase]

Let's go, Steve.

[Dana]

I'm good.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Chase]

Can I do it one handed?

[Dana]

Do it however you want. Okay.

[Brandon]

Nope, not a single.

[Dana]

This. This isn't that hard, though, right?

[TJ]

No.

[Dana]

Oh, God.

[Fitz]

Right.

[Dana]

But that's.

[Greg]

Yeah.

[Emma]

No, this is good.

[Brandon]

Yeah. That was a home run.

[Dana]

I guess you can do it.

[Brandon]

Damn. He proved this wrong. That was perfect, Titus.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Damn. I. I want to apolog. I feel like we got to wait for tomorrow, but I'm close to apologizing to you. My God. Doesn't. He's so cocky.

[Fitz]

That's what we want.

[Brandon]

He's so cocky. Oh, wait, what does that one say?

[Dana]

Wait, what does that say? Brandon will give you $500.

[TJ]

Oh, you did that on every one of them.

[Brandon]

Yeah, I did. There's a lot of money out there.

[Fitz]

I wrote.

[Dana]

What did you say? Queef.

[Gunner]

Queef.

[TJ]

Oh, it says it like that.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

I wrote Eldani. I misspelled his name on purpose.

[Brandon]

I need that car hard.

[Fitz]

Yeah. I also White Sox. Dave walked by while I was signing mine, and he was like, what are you doing? I can't do the voice.

[Phil]

What are you doing?

[Fitz]

And I had him collab with me. So he signed. There are a couple. My cards are signed by me and White Sox day.

[Dana]

Wow.

[TJ]

He still writes his baseball Number on it.

[Fitz]

Yeah, he does. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Brandon]

He does it like when he checks out of places, he.

[TJ]

Unlike receipts.

[Dana]

Yeah, yeah.

[Brandon]

The guys that pull on a meat market, when I go get jerky, they're like, oh, yeah, White Sox. Dave was here. He signs his number.

[Fitz]

I love that. I love that about him.

[Brandon]

So perfect.

[Dana]

I gotta go there. I do too.

[Brandon]

You do?

[Dana]

I haven't been there yet.

[Brandon]

Yeah, it's great.

[Dana]

Is it far?

[Brandon]

No.

[Dana]

Is it up too far up?

[Brandon]

Yeah, it's up by Wrigley.

[Dana]

Okay, good. It needs to be up because I go up.

[Brandon]

Yeah, you go way up.

[Dana]

I go up.

[Brandon]

Are you gonna stick around and watch?

[Dana]

I'm Bulldogs. So they start to fall behind because they're. We're dead.

[Brandon]

We all bet Josh Hubbard 25 points.

[Dana]

I think that's a bad bet.

[Brandon]

Why?

[Dana]

Scored 42 the other day and he's been following his good ones with stinkers. He followed 46 with a 2 for 15.

[Brandon]

Yeah, but what if he goes to the free throw line like 43 times?

[Fitz]

Yeah, right.

[Dana]

He's been very up and down. Hope he goes up twice in a row.

[Fitz]

What if he makes a mockery of the game in pursuit of his own individual accolades?

[Dana]

Well, that would be good for you guys.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Bad for the game.

[Dana]

Like last night sure wasn't, but that's fine.

[Brandon]

Oh, it was.

[Dana]

Was it bad for the game when Wilt shot 63 times? Was it bad. Continue.

[Brandon]

What?

[Dana]

Nothing was bad for what? Was it bad for the game when Wilt shot 63 times? Was it bad for the game when David Robinson shot 48 times to get 71?

[Brandon]

We still call that ethical hoops.

[Dana]

That's not ethical hoops.

[TJ]

Are you a Heat fan?

[Dana]

The very. Well, the very nature. No, I'm not a Heat F fan.

[TJ]

That would make sense.

[Dana]

I'm a Dolphins fan and a Braves fan.

[TJ]

You don't have a basketball team.

[Dana]

I'm a. I'm a players guy in basketball. I've always been.

[Fitz]

You're the number one.

[Brandon]

Bam guy.

[Dana]

I was a Michael guy, then I was a LeBron guy. I'm not. Damn.

[Brandon]

What a run for you.

[Chase]

Yeah, you're damn good at this.

[Brandon]

You just keep winning.

[Dana]

No, I just, I just grab briefly a step guy. I just gravitate to players. I, I was. I like the Suns caught my eye like in the early 90s, but I, I never could stick with them.

[Brandon]

Because they didn't go back to the Finals.

[Fitz]

No, I liked it I I In the NBA Finals.

[Dana]

No, I liked him before that. I liked Tom Chambers. I was a big Tom Chambers guy back in the late 80s, early 90s.

[TJ]

So Michael. Tom Chambers and LeBron.

[Dana]

Michael, Tom and LeBron.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Big three also had a. I had a Kings era too. I when they were good joy them

[Brandon]

that was a fun team.

[Dana]

It's really just about watching watchability and I'll grasp onto a watchable team and ride them for a while while. Because I don't have a home, I guess. In 2000, in 2000s, I went to a lot of Grizzlies games. Me and Alan Brown went about 30 Grizzlies games. So I rooted for them at the time. But I'm not in Memphis anymore, so

[Chase]

I don't need to go.

[TJ]

I better hope Twitter doesn't hear this. Your validity is going to be gone.

[Chase]

With what?

[Dana]

I'm a ball knower. My ball. I just, I get attracted.

[Brandon]

He's a history of the game.

[Dana]

Yeah, I'm a. I'm a fan of the game of basketball.

[Brandon]

He's a. He's an NBA historian.

[Dana]

I went, yeah, I've a goddamn. I guess I did just go from best player to best player to best player. Went from Larry. Larry, great living.

[TJ]

Who's next?

[Brandon]

Luca?

[Dana]

I don't know.

[Brandon]

Wemby.

[TJ]

You're a Wemby guy.

[Fitz]

Brandon's a Wemby guy.

[Dana]

You know what is is I think I might just be a one athlete guy because I think. But I think I'm a bedard guy now.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Dana]

I think I just need the next great young guy get in on the ground floor and go with him his whole career.

[Brandon]

Did you guys see Jalen Brown's quotable about He's. He called himself the best. Jalen Brown said that he's the best two way player in the NBA. Not counting Wemby because he's not human.

[Dana]

He doesn't count.

[Emma]

That's fair.

[Brandon]

He's like, he doesn't care. He's like, I'm the best human two way player.

[Dana]

That's a good qualifier.

[TJ]

I think that's perfectly fair. Yeah.

[Chase]

You see you got ejected last night and then immediately just went on Twitter.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Hey tj.

[Brandon]

How was the Rutgers game yesterday?

[Phil]

They didn't play a yesterday.

[Brandon]

Oh, they played today.

[Phil]

Crazy of you to think we would play on Tuesday. The Big Ten tournament. Big cat.

[Fitz]

Wow.

[Phil]

We start on Wednesday.

[Brandon]

Wow. You gotta buy.

[Phil]

Of course we wouldn't play on. On day one.

[Brandon]

Are you going to the game?

[Phil]

Of course.

[Brandon]

Of course.

[Phil]

I'm in the suite.

[Brandon]

That was funny though. I didn't realize that tweet the lore of the tweet.

[Phil]

Yeah, that guy that just. In 2019, the first time I ever went to Chicago is for the Big Ten tournament. And we played the opening game on Wednesday against Nebraska and some guy, I guess made it his goal to try and find a Rutgers fan at the United center and he just like took a picture of me and tweeted it.

[TJ]

Oh, my God, I found one.

[Brandon]

It's so good.

[Phil]

It's me and chicken fingers there.

[Emma]

You were

[Phil]

doing Miller Cop in the background.

[Brandon]

Did you win that game?

[Phil]

We lost Isaiah Robbie in Nebraska in the opening game and I just had to stay the whole weekend and.

[Dana]

Oh, you played for.

[Phil]

Just in case. There's also spring break, my senior year of College and St. Patrick's Day. So pretty.

[Brandon]

That's a good.

[Emma]

Has Rutgers made a Big Ten final?

[Dana]

No.

[Emma]

In basketball. Football. You can stop baseball, dude. Volleyball.

[Phil]

Wait, maybe final in the tournament in baseball. But we lost and then we got snubbed out of the.

[Dana]

Yeah, y' all did have a run, right?

[TJ]

What about women?

[Fitz]

That.

[TJ]

Basketball, football.

[Phil]

Women's football now,

[Brandon]

dude, R. Having a dominant women would be so funny.

[TJ]

Oh, there needs to be a push for that football.

[Fitz]

Oh, speaking of the Big Ten tournament, Brandon, I got you a. I got

[Brandon]

you a. Oh, that's really nice.

[Fitz]

I went to. I went to United Center. I was walking by the other day and I got you.

[Phil]

You bring your cup in?

[Dana]

Brandon, I got you. Did you bring your white socks cup in?

[Gunner]

Oh, is that a sippy cup top?

[TJ]

Wait, Brandon, we reminded you last night light.

[Dana]

Yeah, I forgot.

[TJ]

You don't have the cup anymore.

[Dana]

I have the cup. I drank from it last week.

[TJ]

Why do we set that reminder in the first place?

[Dana]

I don't remember what other cups. I'll bring it tomorrow.

[Phil]

Here's a context.

[Fitz]

Part of your video.

[Dana]

It's gonna go in my cupcake. You have.

[Fitz]

You have like.

[Emma]

How many cups do you have?

[Dana]

200.

[Brandon]

What? That's too. Wait, wait.

[TJ]

Let's call the boy. I need a photo of your cabinet.

[Dana]

Other boys at school. I call the wife Jersey.

[Phil]

You want to put a six month. Six month timer and see if you can bring that cup back in six months.

[Dana]

I guarantee you I'm bringing this cup

[Chase]

back in six months.

[Dana]

Remember the date? You have to tell me before you

[Phil]

have to tell you five months in 30 days.

[Brandon]

Okay.

[TJ]

Your dinner's at home. How many of your dinner.

[Brandon]

Wait, what he told you last night.

[Dana]

I'll bring it tomorrow.

[Brandon]

He told me he told him, but then bam.

[Dana]

Last night was bam night. Last night got crazy you don't have it, do you? I have the goddamn cup, Danny. If I don't have the cup tomorrow, I'll hand you a $100 bill. How about that?

[TJ]

A real one.

[Brandon]

No more reminders.

[Dana]

No more reminders. If I don't have the cup, I have to hand you a 100 bill.

[TJ]

A real 100 bill?

[Dana]

Yes.

[Fitz]

All right.

[TJ]

Hand and keep it. He gets to keep it?

[Dana]

Yeah, it's his. If I don't have the cup. If I don't have the cup tomorrow. If I don't have the cup tomorrow, he gets to keep. I give him a hundred dollar bill. Yeah.

[TJ]

You don't have the cup anymore.

[Dana]

I have.

[TJ]

You drank out of it last week.

[Emma]

What did you drink out of it?

[Dana]

Tea. Unsweetened tea.

[TJ]

What other cups did you drink out of last week?

[Fitz]

You drink out of the Cubs one I got you.

[Dana]

I can't say that I did. Last. I've been on a Blackhawks cup kick. I got a lot of Blackhawks cups.

[TJ]

That's not his cup anymore. That's Kyle's cup. Secret Santa.

[Fitz]

I forgot. Right.

[Dana]

The cup will be here tomorrow, and

[TJ]

you drink out of that cup every day.

[Dana]

Yeah. Or I would give Danny a $20 bill.

[TJ]

Wait a sec. You said 100.

[Dana]

This is great.

[TJ]

There we go.

[Fitz]

Yeah. You're welcome. Thank you. You're welcome. That's the second cup I've got you now, so. Look forward to seeing that in the studio.

[Chase]

That's a cool one.

[Fitz]

Three months just.

[Gunner]

Do you see the Mariners? I think it's the Mariners. It's like a fairy boat for chicken wiggins with two sauce cups.

[Dana]

Chicken wiggins? What?

[Gunner]

I don't know. It's like a ferry boat now.

[Brandon]

I want to see it.

[Gunner]

I don't know if it's the Mariners, but it's some seafaring team. Yeah.

[Brandon]

Oh, that's sick.

Don't the White Sox try to claim that.

[Dana]

White Sox do have it good.

[Brandon]

Good food.

[Dana]

White Sox had. Had damn good food. That's what the whole origin of this is. Me and Liam went and he threw away the collector's cup I bought him.

[Brandon]

And you didn't eat the nachos.

[Dana]

And he didn't eat the nachos.

[Brandon]

You didn't eat the nachos and I

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Dana]

I just wanted the helmet.

The Big 12 tournaments. Doing school food for each school at different concession stands.

[Fitz]

Do other countries do. This is this thing.

[Brandon]

We celebrate how fat we are all.

[Fitz]

Yeah. If. If you go to a soccer game somewhere in Europe, they just do weird sausages full of chicken tenders.

[Emma]

And have you seen, like, there's an account slidesh of British Stadium.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

Stadium spray.

[Emma]

It's always mushy peas.

[Emma]

It's always gray.

The penis stone lady.

[Gunner]

Whoever pulls the sword out of the penis, the kingdom

[TJ]

you could get them.

[Brandon]

Yeah.

[Fitz]

What's the.

[TJ]

So you know about penis stone?

Nah. I know about Fosters, though.

My aunt's tube station is Fosters on the.

[Dana]

I believe it's the Elizabeth line.

[TJ]

The spectrum shirt.

[Brandon]

That's an awesome jersey.

[Chase]

Yeah.

[Dana]

Is that a lot of pounds?

[Brandon]

No idea. By the way, Blue diamond almonds and more. The flavorful nut mix. Mixed nuts, leveled up almonds, cashews, pistachios, and three signature blue diamond flavors. Honey roasted smokehouse roasted sea Salt freshness guaranteed 5 grams of protein per serving. Other mixed nuts are stale, bland. They can't match Blue diamond's flavor and freshness upgrade to the flavorful nut mix. Blue diamond almonds and more. I love the smokehouse. Smokehouse.

[Dana]

Yeah, they're great.

[Brandon]

Smokehouse are the best. Okay, tomorrow. World baseball. Yugs. World baseball. What is it?

[Dana]

World baseball. World class.

[Brandon]

That the. That's baseball. World classic yoga.

[Fitz]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Yes. Great.

[Dana]

This is what we. This is what we act all year long for.

[Brandon]

Yeah. Days like tomorrow.

[TJ]

A good night's sleep.

[Brandon]

Yeah. Rest up. All right, let's spin the wheel.

[TJ]

So now would be the perfect time for. Chado have asked that question.

[Dana]

Yeah.

[Brandon]

Yes. Yes.

[TJ]

That little gap.

[Fitz]

That's right.

[Brandon]

But guess what? He's going to batting cage tomorrow.

[Dana]

It's.

[Brandon]

It's so credit to Che. He's done it again.

[TJ]

He's going to hit multiple.

[Brandon]

He's given us something even. Like, I'm looking forward to the Yugoff, but the halftime show of Che.

[TJ]

Oh, it's the halftime show.

[Brandon]

Tomorrow we're going to do one beer and then Chase going to have 100 miles an hour blindfolded, and then we'll do the second beer.

[TJ]

It's a cage that goes 100, 105K. Are you afraid?

[Brandon]

Not.

[Chase]

Blindfolded batting cages, they don't pitch with movement.

[Dana]

Right.

[Chase]

Like, it's just straight.

[Dana]

Yeah, but you're going to use your hearing in a second. By the time you hear it, it's passing.

[Brandon]

Trust you.

[Gunner]

He's gonna lean forward to hear.

[Brandon]

Oh, I want to be.

[Chase]

Well, I'll figure out the cadence, like, okay, five seconds or whatever or 10 seconds between each pitch, and I'll try to count it out and.

[Dana]

All right.

[Chase]

But yeah, we'll. We'll give it a good. A good go.

[Brandon]

Okay. All right, let's spin the wheel. Good luck to Rutgers.

[Phil]

Thank you.

[Brandon]

Who are you playing?

[Phil]

Minnesota.

[Brandon]

Oh, you'll win.

[Emma]

That's a thank you team you beat.

[Brandon]

Actually, you won't. They're actually kind of scrappy. What?

[Dana]

Brandon, Even if he gets split out of 100, that doesn't prove he wouldn't have gotten it if his eyes were.

[Brandon]

Oh, he's got to do both.

[Fitz]

He's got to do both.

[Dana]

Okay. Is he going to give us a.

[Brandon]

We'll do 20 on each.

[Chase]

I can't. I can't hit a 100 mile pitch

[Brandon]

for sure, but you got to try.

[Dana]

But if you time it up using your eyes too.

[Brandon]

Oh, my God.

[Fitz]

Why not take that. Why not apply the exact same method with your eyes open that you're going to apply correct. If you're using timing, everything you said about your strategy with your eyes closed, just do that with your eyes open.

[TJ]

That's cheating.

[Brandon]

What do you.

[Dana]

Oh, my God. Spend a goddamn wheel. That's cheating.

[Chase]

You guys do roback?

[Brandon]

Yes.

[Dana]

That's cheating.

[Brandon]

What, like that? No, I took off my headphones.

[Dana]

Hold on, hold on. Rock dot com. Did we do rock?

[Brandon]

Yeah, I did roback.

[Dana]

All right. Yeah, my headphones are off, too.

[Brandon]

You got to. You got to take them off right now. He. He's going to. He's going to say something else. It's going to. That's going to pull us all back in so hard.

[Gunner]

Oh, that kind of makes.

[Brandon]

He's going to pull us back in.

[Greg]

I will not.

[Gunner]

It.

[Brandon]

I'm not. No, no, no.

[Gunner]

I do.

[Fitz]

Guys, hear what he say?

[Brandon]

No. Shut up.

[Gunner]

No, I understand. Yeah, okay. Yeah, that's fair.

[Brandon]

All right. See everyone tomorrow.

[Greg]

[Gunner]

[Brandon]
