Tight End U Surprises, Speedos at the Shore & Brad Pitt on F1, Chiefs Dynasty and More | Ep 146

27:19They won that event. The one multiple events was a Cooper to Gina, Sydney Brown. They were team takes their shirt off. So I think it was their official team name, which I mean, listen, if I look like that, I probably have my shirt off too. There we go, Sidney. Chug to start off. It's a going. Right over. This is an awful angle, Jake. He is moving. He is moving. Went right through that thing. I've heard Sidney, by the way, has had an outstanding summer. He did really well this year in OTAs and everything. People are excited about him. Coop, great chug. Great chug. Jumps the gap. Jumps the gap. He's up.

28:00He's over. And then he's army crawling. Army crawling. Oh, no. That's going to waste some time. Oh, God. Oh, God. No, I think that's the way you had to do it. And he's in. Way to fight. Way to fight it. They were both competitive as hell. And they beat me and Bo in Flip Cup later in the freaking event. What the fuck? You're getting whooped by fucking everybody. It was a bad showing. Well, I was also hurt at that point. And my morale was down. Hurt? You had to pull hammy in Flip Cup? Jason, don't start this. Listen, I'm not going to throw Bo under the bus because he's the only reason we made it that far after I pulled my hamstring.

28:32I fucking did great in that flip cup game. I might have been the best individual performer in the flip cup. I was held down by Bo. Bo fucked me in flip cup. I'm just kidding. Listen, you live and you die as a team. I'm riding with my buddy. Everybody's got to hold their end of the bargain, man. I'm riding with my guy, but it was an atrocious performance by Honey Bobo. We lost by one cup. We had 23, and I flipped 15 of them. Do that math for you. Actually, we flipped 22. 22. Dude, yeah. No, Bo's got to meet you at least halfway. It can't be just like a quarter of the board. We got to figure it out, Bo.

29:14There's one thing Bo did a great job was it was on the grease pole. Turns out Bo Allen is an expert at navigating grease poles. Let's show this one. An expert at navigating grease poles. Woo! Bow! That's a good job. good job was that that was the goal is to hit it yeah you had to get to the end of it took your points and he just he said screw trying to run well everybody who tried to walk made it like two two two feet on and then they fucking ate shit so this ended up being like the last three competitors from like sydney bow and connor they all figure it out if you just like jump and slide on it like a seal that that's the best strategy this is him filling the a gap right here we might have to we might have to uh extend this although i don't know how much further it can extend i don't know if you want to keep it yeah that's that's the diciest one right there oh dude wait till you see some of these guys how they fell on that thing there are some good falls shout out to stone cold savages who uh ended up taking home the win and the fifty thousand dollars is beer bowl champs they were the runner-ups from last year insane and they got it done $50 ,000.

30:24Listen, we got to reward these degenerates. Stone Cold Savages are a great team. And it's honestly, it's a beautiful story of perseverance. It is. It's a beautiful story of we're going to get better from last year. Yep. And I'm going to fucking take some Stone Cold Savages into this fucking NFL season. You should. You should. Let me get a hell yeah. Hell yeah. The full recap of Beer Bowl will be up on my YouTube page. That's Jason Kelsey, at Jason Kelsey. I think that's just the name of the YouTube page. Nice. I think that's where we're putting it up. Yeah, we'll let you know when it's ready. All right.

31:01Any final thoughts on year five of the Shorebirds? I mean, it was our most successful one by far. Nice, man. We raised over a million dollars in one year. Just two days of fundraising, raised over a million dollars for the Eagles Autism Foundation. We had tons of sponsors that were willing to be a part of it. Tons of athletes and celebrities lent their time to guest bartend or participate in Beer Bowl. Hell yeah. Tons of 92 %ers showed up. And then just a bunch of Eagles fans. CIL is a special city. It really is. It's a family-based island that people are just looking to have a good time. It's very neighborly.

31:38It's very community-based. Never had a bad day at the shore, man. So they show up. They show they've shown up for all the other ones and they showed up for this one and everybody combined. We raised a lot of money. We raised a lot of money. That's going to go a long way for for care and research in the autism community. And shout out to Ryan Hammond, the head of Eagles Autism Foundation. Right. For her involvement. She kind of gets this whole thing going. It's a lot of work on her end, especially with all the other events she has to do with Eagles Autism Foundation. But she handles it like a unbelievable professional.

32:11and then uh shout out to kai you kai also does a lot of uh lifting on her end to get this thing up and running it was just a really special event it was an awesome couple days and uh can't wait to go for year five or year six now uh this next year that's crazy shout out to everybody at the at the shore it looked absolutely to the ocean drive shout out to cial to od shout out of the cial city there you go shout outs left and right baby looks look like a blast and i can't wait to join next year baby let's talk about where you were this weekend which is nashville tennessee that's right vegas travis was out of the house at tight end university let's start with the football portion the thing that nobody wants to listen to us talk about you had jeremy shockey out there this year baby dude how excited were you to see jay shocked out there are you kidding it's my first time finally meeting him and i i had you know there's certain guys that made this position what they what the what it is today for sure they made it fun they made it exciting guys that brought bring personalities to football and you can latch on to that shockey made everybody love the fact love like seeing a tight end with the ball in his hand just running motherfuckers electric it was electric that shit's infectious that's the guy that you want on your team through my entire like life of meeting my heroes in the nfl he's another one where it's just like as soon as he's in the room he ignites the room yeah he's here he's here to like uh talk to you about just anything anything you have to ask for him he's willing to you know spit the gospel on and um it was just cool to finally meet him knowing that through the grapevine everyone had said nothing but amazing things about him throughout his entire career man that's awesome you also had uh the browns tight end tried a happy gilmore swing what's this let's take a look at this i mean listen he full sent it this is a bit much bigger wind up than happy gilmore has done before you gotta stay closer to the ball you gotta get closer to the ball happy did not have that far no he took like maybe one step maybe two steps into a crow hop you can't take a run and start like that it's just everyone knows in golf you got to eliminate variables and that there's just too many variables for that one that's a good send though i'm gonna I said, it's a full send.

34:30I respect the fuck out of it. Well done, Brendan Bates. Theo Vaught out there running routes. How did Theo look? I'm not going to lie. I saw Theo the night before. I didn't even see him out there on the field. Jason, what you have to understand is that tight end you is just a good reason to get good people around and have some fun. Maybe talk some ball if you're into that. Who's D and him up here? Who's D and him up? uh it looks like uh i can't even tell the fucking screen look at that stance though yeah right look at that fucking stance oh my gosh okay oh oh not terrible not terrible oh jumped too early on the jump you gotta watch out man those hammies baby dude yeah absolutely hilarious so we only did we only did one field day this year um we have too much goddamn fun in the evenings that going back out onto the field hung over for two hours in 95 97 degree heat just you know we'll do one good day of work and then uh and then throw some parties raise some money and have some fun i think uh i think we finally kind of found the perfect mix of like hanging out talking ball as well as putting in some work every single day we got workouts up at Vanderbilt.

35:51Guys are definitely getting in the works knowing that we got the season coming up in less than a month, or we're going to training camp in less than a month. And it's just good that what people don't understand about the tight end position is that we're the I got you guy, whatever you need guy. We're the guy that will block the guys that are bigger than us, will run routes against the guys that are smaller than us, and whatever position they put us in, we're expected to get our shit done, get our job done, as everyone is on the field but we get put in more situations than most and that means we naturally just have a selfless mentality and uh and i'm here for you whatever you need type of mentality and like vibes and it's everybody across the entire like nfl you figure this out and it just makes tight end you so much fucking fun right because everybody's there to just have a good time nobody's there thinking you know, too big of themselves or like they don't want to share their secrets.

36:50Everyone's here to help out each other and make sure that you're spreading the word on how you got to where you are. And sometimes it's just it's hearing somebody's story and hearing how they even got into the tight end position, you know? Yeah. And yeah, it was awesome, man. Just another another amazing year. Shout out to Rubicon. Shout out to everybody at the Thompson Hotel and all the sponsors. It was it was a fun one, man. It looked like a lot of fun. and actually, speaking of ball, they got a clip here. Are you talking a little bit of ball? What are you teaching in this clip? You know, I got to switch it up.

37:23Mitchell Schwartz called me out on this. He's got such a good point. Don't get me wrong. These are fundamentals that I like to think. I like to work these fundamentals in the offseason. Let's play the clip. Brandon, what are we doing? I don't want to listen to myself, man. Fuck. Take your headphones off. A lot of other people like listening to you. All right. Go ahead. Hey, guys. it's so hard for us to just throw one foot in the ground going 75 % speed in a row to get out of there, right? So we want to use two steps. If you can get two, if sometimes... I'm not talking about shit. It's so hard.

38:01It's so hard to put into words. I know exactly what you're talking about. You have to slow that momentum down and really gather that power so that you can explode out. I'm trying to talk physics, and I just don't – I need to start breaking in Newton's laws of motion. The direction that I want to go. Don't always want to understep. I do that a lot, unfortunately. But if I can – if I get to choose what I'm doing, I'm going in at a powerful position. That means if a defender's on me, I'm still strong getting out of that thing. You know what I mean? Like I can gain separation. And it's hard to gain separation if you don't go in at a controlled pace.

38:40So really work and find that shoulder over toe. And you can get in and out of there precise and with a purposeful, like powerful foundation. I mean, what do you think? It seems like that all makes sense. What are you talking about? Yeah, I mean. What did you not like about that? What did you not like about that? I just don't like how I talk. It's hard when you're hung over to like be like. Articulate. Articulate and say the right things while you're running. like typically when you're working out you're not like speaking at a loud value like I do it felt like I was holding my breath the entire time yeah I will say this though big guys we need to go in at a controlled space or a controlled pace to come out at an explosive pace you know what I mean so it's like we want to go in control so we can come out explosive and that's basically what I was talking about you don't want to go in slow but you want to go in controlled because the the moment you're going to get open comes in how quickly you can get out of that break, right?

39:37And how much you can make going into that break look like you're going to keep moving forward. This honestly reminds me of like the 20-yard shuttle. That's a drill that people do for the combine. I don't want to brag about myself. I've got the fastest time in O-line history. But regardless, if you try that drill, basically you start in the middle. You run five yards this way, change direction, five yards this, 10 yards that way, change direction, you go back to where you started, right? Yeah. So you're changing direction twice. That drill is all technique, but keep going. Correct. That's what I'm saying.

40:07If you try and run that drill full speed and just run it, you are going to run a slower time than if you run it controlled with proper technique. If you hit the proper steps and you do everything right, your time will be faster than if you just run it like Leroy Jenkins. You're going to run a slower time. You're going to look fast, but you're going to run a slow time. That's just how it works. And I think route running, the best route runners I know are smooth because they're controlled. They can make it look like they're running top end speed. But at the same time, they know they can put their foot in the ground and change direction.

40:41I think you were talking about that from like a tight ends perspective. Like wide receivers can do it in one step. The best can, right? They can like be running full speed and all of a sudden put their foot in the ground and go. Tight ends because you're bigger. You got to be more cognizant of being able to get out of that break because you have more weight behind it. And the more steps you do, the more slowing down that you do, it's buying time for the defender to read that and react to you changing direction. Is this? Yeah, that's what you're saying, essentially. Right. Essentially, it's exactly what I'm saying.

41:12And if I try and keep if I'm if whatever I'm doing is I'm always trying to stay in that controlled space. You'll see me sometimes raise up. But anytime I raise up, I have to come back down to get back into that controlled space. sometimes raising up and then coming back down place with my tempo which can throw somebody off sometimes it gives the illusion that you know it's a timing factor it gives the illusion that i'm doing something else that i'm really focused on doing or i'm just like kind of lulling somebody to sleep but at the if if i'm running a full speed route i want to stay in that like f1 car like zone i don't want to airplane up if i stay in that f1 car now my shoulders my core that squat position that we're always trying to get to in the weight room.

41:57Now I can transfer that onto the field and use my power and use my insteps and use the ability to, you know, all the power that we have at the tight end position. I can use that going in and out of breaks. Let me ask you this. That's the base fundamentals. How much after you get those base fundamentals, do you as a route runner use raising and lowering? You talked about understepping, like cutting on the outstep. Like, I think that like, here's my issue with coaches that teach positions is they want it all to always look the exact same. You go, you put your foot here and like the best rat runners, they're playing a game with the defender.

42:38Like you can raise and lower your position and make the defender think you're about to cut and then just keep going straight. You can all of a sudden cut off the wrong foot if you know the grass and the footing is good. and that will throw the defender off because they get used to these, like, timing. They get used to a three-step slant, right? They know one, two, three, he's going in. They know the sticks are at 10 yards. Yeah. They know it's third and 10. And this is where I truly feel like you are so much better, and I don't mean to throw shade on any other tight end at tight end university.

43:09This is the level of intricacy that I think you have that a lot of other people, especially play tight end. Some of the other receivers have this, like, instinct, and I don't know if it's because you played basketball or what it is, but it feels like you have a way of manipulating your steps, your body language. I usually say you have Gumby knees. Your knees are always inside your toes, so it's like, which way is he about to go? He can go either way. It's not giving it away. Staying on those end steps. That was actually one of Evan Ingram's big notes this year at tight end U. I'm big on using all end steps and the out steps of routes, but you hear me say I don't like it when I undercut or I understep.

43:50But at the same time, if I'm at a controlled space, if I'm knees over toes and I get all – I have good ankle flexibility too. So it's like I can get on those outside edges and still be at a controlled, balanced place. Yes. But as long as I'm not tall and trying to go on the outside – As long as you're not on balance doing it. Exactly. The biggest thing is getting to that F1, finding where you, you like reside in that F1 car. Like I said, 75 % speed. When I was really like at my peak athleticism, I could go 85 % like speed and still be able to bend and turn and, and get in and out of a break. And that's the, and that kind of stuff.

44:35But at the same time, I can always, if I'm 85 and I'm still in that F1 car, I can take off and get to a hundred. You know what I mean? So it's like I can play with tempo. I can play with getting in and out of breaks. And then when you add in the mental aspect of, you know what I mean, understanding all the route concepts, understanding all the defense, like now you can attack with precision. Right. You know what I mean? And it's purposeful movement. It's IDing the defense and having a plan and having these instinctual plans kind of set in place so that you can just play fast. Absolutely. Let's get to what everybody else wants to talk about as listening to the show.

45:14There was a surprise guest at a tight end university. I don't know if she's surprised, but it was a surprise to everybody on Twitter. Special guest, Taylor. Taylor showed up to tight end university. How did it? Tay Tay showed up. Yeah, we, I mean, you already know it's. How did this come about? We're in Nashville. She grew up in Nashville. She moved there when she was younger. And yeah, we had this plan for a while that we were going to have some fun with the tight ends and especially tight ends and friends, all the evening events. I'll say this. I won't, I won't say when the idea came up, but when we were there at tight end and friends and we knew that there was a professional like Kane Brown who could, who could just, he could figure it out.

45:59He's a pro. He's been on stage a million times. He's not like, he's not shy at all by any means. He's, he's a true professional. Tay just kind of went up to him and the band and just was like, hey, if you guys are down, I'll go up there and play a song and see if we can pop the roof off this place. And sure enough, she's so good with just everybody, just people and making people feel comfortable in it. And absolutely rocked the stage yet again. It was awesome, man. Well, she killed it. She shook it off for sure. She shook down the roof. That's for damn sure. It was a surprise. Everybody didn't see coming.

46:35I know I didn't. I'm over here. What the hell? Tay's up on stage? How'd this happen? How'd they get her to go up there? That's amazing. She was like in the back doing like musical notes for like sheets of music. She was just like kind of like writing out like I think the hi-hats maybe. I don't know. I'm not a musician. But she was like making sure that the band and everybody knew. Everybody was on it. Everybody was just, you know, yeah. And then just went out there without practicing and it was pitch perfect and just killed it. That's cool. Very cool. It was awesome, man. Was this your first time in an event sponsored by Dude Wipes?

47:11It has to be the first and only, I would assume. Dude Wipes got it. Yeah, they got a good one right there. They got a good one. You guys killed it. Tight end you probably the most traction I've seen it get for multiple reasons. It's getting so freaking good. And George, and I have to show love to George and Greg. Those two guys, Rubicon, the Kittle family, Claire for hosting the significant other side of things. It's just so much fun being around that group, and it's really starting to become a family. And, man, it's year in, year out, man. I could never see myself not doing this, so we got to tie the shore and tight end you up.

47:59a little bit better so that we can, I can get you out there. I got to get you out there. I would love to go. I don't know what I'm going to do at tight end. You, I got to see you increase. No, I just got to see, I got to see the footwork. See if you're coachable. We got to, we got to see some things. I could have played tight end. No doubt. That's what I'm saying. And I see the frame right now is a two 65 frame for sure. That's a tight end kind of frame. I got to see what this looks like in routes and everything. I would not want to see. I want to see if the hockey edges translated with you like they did with me.

48:29Well, that's how I got. How do you think I got the highest, the lowest 20-yard shuttle time? That's all about it. You were just, shh, hockey stop. That's right. Hockey stop. Everybody else is like, oh, stay on your in-steps. I'm like, that's the dumbest thing I ever heard. I can be on the outside of this foot and the inside of this one and maximize my force. Shin angle. You guys know what the fuck you're talking about. The first night at tight end U is always the welcoming night, and we ended up getting, we ended up having a time. Just everyone's got an Aperol spritz or a spritz in their hand.

48:57Spritz? It was a big Greg Olson. Sounds like a major league party. Greg Olson's favorite. I had about 30 of them. Greg Olson's favorite drink is a spritz? Don't put this man on blast like that. No, he loves it. There ain't no shame in that man's game. Are you kidding me? It's Greg fucking Olson. Life of the party, baby. Was he wearing Speedos too? No. If he does, he doesn't wax. That's for sure. Or if he does, he gets the full Brazilian.

49:28My bad Greg. He did this, Greg. Yeah, so we're all enjoying spritzers and we end up at Aldean's and we're up till the crack of dawn, just having a blast being around each other. And then I go in the next day and at 10 a.m. I got to give like a 30 minute like basically seminar on route running. And it's so hard. Like, I got to stop. I got to stop getting hammered before these things, man, because I'm just – I feel like I'm not connecting to anyone. I'm not connecting to anyone. Man, it was hilarious, man. So hopefully the tight ends are getting something out of it, both entertainment-wise, having a good time with the boys and the families involved.

50:15But at the same time, hopefully the guys that could use the takeaway with the football knowledge or getting a lot of it. Dude, before we get out of the house segment, you had a golf outing. And again, I'm so solemnly swear, I will never miss this ever. I'd have to be at the golf outing. Golf is like kind of my secondary thing right now. I'm getting good. Wow. It was all scheduled at the same time of tight end you, but. Yeah. How was it? It was fantastic. It was the hottest day in Philadelphia. It was actually, if it would have broken 100, it would have been the eighth time this millennia that it was over 100.

50:51Golf and heat is tough, man. It might be one of the reasons I lost to Bo, if I'm being honest, because I sweat so much and dehydrate myself so much. And a lot of the DEX scan comes down to how hydrated you are. And I had it done the next day. Just go throw it out there. Just go throw it out there. Don't do that. Just being honest. Just being honest. Don't do that. How'd you play? I played terrible. I mean, legitimately atrocious. I don't know what it is. My swing has been messing me. It's better. Like when you watch the swing, it's better. But I'm just not playing as well. I'm not playing as well.

51:21I don't know what it is. Be an athlete out there. Overall, outside of that, it was a freaking amazing event. Nice. Kingsford was a major sponsor. They donated a bunch of money to put it on. Just Pryles came and cooked over like 50 tomahawk steaks. I was told from multiple people. I love tomahawk steaks. I was told from multiple people it was the best food they have ever had at a golf outing. there was a esposito like pork i think was the name of the the uh the pork guys i don't know the food was just incredible though jess kingsford the entire team everyone there killed it i think rolling green the uh corset was at they all did outstanding job and overall we we grossly raised i don't know how much minus expenses i don't know how to balance a budget but we raised over 400 000 uh for the beef philly foundation dude we killed it we killed it that's a week of fucking foundation raising right there.

52:17I mean, through the Be Philly event, which raised over$400 ,000 plus for my foundation, Be Philly, that supports inner city kids, education, and other foundations that are doing good work with kids and families in Philadelphia. And then also with the Eagles Autism Foundation events down at the shore, like all together in one week, we were able to raise$1.5 million roughly for charities. God damn, that's awesome, man. And it's all possible because of outstanding people that came to support multiple companies that sponsored these events. Tons of people buying the foursomes. We got Jerome Bettis freaking won.

52:55Jerome Bettis. Dude. I got to see him out of Tahoe. See what that swing's looking like, man. Dude, having the bus at the event. CeCe Sabathia. So, yeah. CeCe. CeCe was there. It was like all of my childhood heroes. Some legends, dude. Yeah, some legends from growing up. And it was an awesome event. A lot of people showed up and braved the elements. It was pretty ridiculous. Also, I had a trick shot artist, Dan Beaver. We're going to have that video coming up soon. But dude hit a drone midair, like off a tee. And not like on accident, was aiming at it. Sign him up. Outing was a lot of fun. Shout out to Rolling Green, Kingsford, all of our sponsors.

53:37Shout out to Dan Beaver. And shout out to the Philadelphia fan base, man. Man, everybody out there in Philly, man, you guys are, you know, helping a great cause both at the shore and at the golf outing. That's right. That's awesome, man. All righty. That's it for Out of the House, brought to you by American Express. Let's get to our convo with the one, the only, Mr. Brad Pitt. Whoa. Let's go. Brothers Kelsey. What's up?

56:25and Travis owns an F1 team. This will make you fucking hype about F1. Just racing in general. This is an election. This gets you in it, man. Well, you get a badass dude that, like, and to come in and just create that team chemistry. A lot of people may see F1 from the outside as just the driver and his car and everything like that, man. But you make it a whole family experience, like that team camaraderie experience, man, and your character's absolutely badass. so it's definitely a movie for everybody man it reels you in dude yeah it's a team of like 500 people i mean they got a whole nasa space control back at headquarters who are even running strategies and in lifetime while the race is going it is it is definitely a team sport um you bought into alpine right yeah i'm in alpine baby i'm in alpine right now you guys got some work ahead of you yeah yeah you already know we just we just got to get that wind tunnel you know i mean we got to get all our uh our cars uh aerodynamics together man i like it i like it that's the cool thing about uh the movie is that it gets you it gives you a cool like view into the f1 world that you that you really don't see from the outside like the like people don't really understand how many tires you get and how many you know how much time you get on in the wind tunnel and you get to like i don't know manipulate the car so that you get like a tenth of a second faster you know it's it's so it's so fascinating once you get into it yes and we you know we were only you know skipping along the surface the the like i said the strategies these guys go through the development of these cars the adjustments of camber of tires and front wing by millimeters in fact it's like it's a science that is so far beyond me but the movie i think does a great job of still talking intelligent enough to hardcore F1 fans, and they are hardcore like us with football.

58:23Yes. Like around the globe, it's a religion. But it's still very inviting to people who are not familiar with the sport. So I think that's our biggest achievement here, besides being just great fun. For sure. That was one of the things I was going to say. It has just enough of the technical side that a dumbass like me who knows nothing can kind of follow. I'm kind of getting this here. All right, this is cool. I also just love Hayes' whole vibe. With F1, I always think of it in this world of almost elite racing status. This is the best of the best, but it's got this high class level to it. And Hayes comes in here.

59:02He's driving in a freaking van. He was serving time as a taxi cab driver. You spoke volumes to Jason Kelsey. he spoke to me this is what i want to see i want to see a guy go in there yeah i want someone living out of their van to go into f1 that's what i need this dude jason was literally the first five years of his career in philadelphia was considering buying a boat and just living on the dock in the delaware that's right kylie nixed that i had this romantic idea when i first started i was going to drive you know uh 18 wheelers i was going to drive them half the year and stick to my roots yes and like get into film the other half and well we know what went out you never got in the 18 wheelers that long haul was a lot more work than i than i thought yeah have you always been into cars like are you just a car guy i've always been into bikes i mean I do have in my DNA that, you know, that redneck gene that, you know, like motorbikes and barbecues.

1:00:13And, you know, we would ride anything, anything we could ride, we would get on it. So wheels were always a thing. But later in life, I really got into bikes and MotoGP. I'm a fanatic for decades since the McDoing days. But now there just wasn't enough races. So now then I, then I got into F1, you know, around the Vettel era, probably into Lewis. And now I'm into Indy and there's still not enough races. So I got to get into NASCAR. There you go. Yeah. Well, that's where the barbecue vibe is. You want to get back to those redneck roots. There's plenty of that in NASCAR. Someone point out, it was really interesting.

1:00:50I didn't, it's never occurred to me, but NASCAR, our love for NASCAR comes from our, our history with bootlegging. That's right. And not running the cops. That would be badass. That's one of the coolest things I like about NASCAR is the history of that. And like all of the old legends were bootleggers. Like that's how the whole sports originated. And that's who doesn't love running from the cops. That's our, one of our past, our greatest past times running from the police. One where it's so elegant and proper and, you know, NASCAR, they'll still, they'll scrap it out. You know, they'll, they'll get down and dirty.

1:01:23Oh yeah. They'll still throw some bows. Good fun. One of the other things with the movie is, you're an old grizzled veteran, right? You've been around and there's so much, I'm sure with Travis and I were honestly with football where all these young guys come in, they're on their phones or on the apps. And like the, the landscape has changed even just in that, you know, 13 years that we've been in. I don't know. It was just very relatable for us watching that as a veteran football player for you. Was it easy to tag into that being an actor and seeing like how the whole world has changed with movies like was there some type of relatability there for you just in terms of that yeah i mean i at first i had to suck up a lot of old man jokes it was fair enough that charming mother

1:02:12yeah no it's i i like watching what the what the new generations are are coming in with i like i like to see what they're up against and also the way they negotiate the way through it i think I feel like they have they enjoy it more we were a little more uptight and had to be about acting you didn't you know you didn't sell out you didn't sell out you didn't sell out and now it's this thing of um hey man we can be artists in many different uh arenas so and so let's do it let's enjoy it absolutely absolutely but this idea they also get caught up in like have to have a franchise or have to have a superhero or something like that which I keep going don't don't they will die they will work you to death yes that's awesome in terms of your like uh training for the for f1 has has getting like an understanding of the car and everything like that and and and relating it to all the movies that you've done in the past in terms of like the fighting stuff and like just getting ready and understanding i don't know your role how was this like different from uh movies like fight club or or anything you've done in the past dude well fight club we were just like riffing you know we weren't supposed to be like have any idea that we knew what we're doing which which fit me and edward just fine that's amazing but this one oh man i mean we got we got in the cars four months i think four months before by the by the end of it all we'd been driving these cars.

1:03:43for two years i think they said we put 6 000 miles in the seat holy shit these things it is shocking what these cars can do. It is shocking. And ours, I've been in an F1 a couple times now, but ours is a chopped F2 made with a Mercedes Aero Pack. It's made to look like F1. And what my point is, we're not even pulling the Gs. Those guys are pulling. And it is harrowing. You cannot believe what these cars can do. You cannot believe the first time you get in it, that you can be barreling down at 180 80 at a brick wall and hit the brakes at the 80 yard marker and make a right turn you know slow down to 50 it's like it's shocking you go around these high speed corners they tell you you just can't believe they'll stick you feel like you're gonna go rolling off into the ethers and they stick and you're in this it's the most sublime feeling i've ever ever felt ever these guys that's crazy like 140 miles an hour and it's unbelievable that just wants to rip your head off your shoulders and somebody just hang on mantra was just trust the car trust the car trust the car and yeah little by little you know by the end of it we got proficient yeah those are some of my favorite shots when you're freaking barreling down at something and you're like basically playing chicken with yourself you're like oh man like how long can i hold this off how long can i hold this off that's crazy yeah it's pretty awesome like i said you have somebody in the f1 world go but yeah, we had, we had, we had, we had, I mean, F1 opened the doors for us.

1:05:17It was really getting Joe Kaczynski, our director was really smart for his first thing when he had this idea was to go get Lewis Hamilton and Lewis as producer, Sir Lewis, Sir Lewis, man, that man's knowledge is, I have yet to see the end of that man's knowledge. He opened the door for us to get us in. It's crazy. F1 was really gracious with us. all the teams, the team principals, all the drivers. We go in and talk to the drivers' meetings, tell them what we aim to do. I mean, it's audacious. It's unprecedented. You're going to take actors, put them in real cars, on real tracks, and embed us through the race calendar.

1:05:58Yeah, yeah. I mean, like, you couldn't do it with football. There's just no way to do it, you know? Like on any Sunday, they had to make up an imaginary team. We couldn't embed themselves with you guys. Yeah. It's like, it's just, it's crazy. The first time we went driving out in front on a race weekend, on quality weekend, we have it all rehearsed. Everything's got to go right. We got to prove it that we don't cock up the system so we can continue to do this. And I go out in front of a hundred thousand people and my comms go down and I'm driving blind. I mean, they're driving deaf. Oh my gosh.

1:06:31And somehow we got through that. And then we have our first thing on the grid. All the cars getting ready to take off for their formation lap. We get 10 minutes to do our scene. We do our scene, and our cars are supposed to take off, and one dies. And the guy's scrambling to get the car. Oh, my gosh. I just come out, run it off, and run it off the track by the time Max Verstappen is coming back around to get ready for the race start. So we had our home. No way. It worked. It worked in the end. Yeah. That's crazy. God damn, that's insane. Let me ask you this. You've done a racing movie now. You've done baseball.

1:07:04The scenes in this are so well shot, and it's just a very cinematic movie. It's just really well done. What is the most cinematic sport? Do you want to do other sport movies? Are you happy with baseball and racing and that's it? I love a sports movie. When they work, it's the greatest. It's the greatest. Yes, absolutely. I look back at Gene Hackman and Hoosiers and Redford and the Natural. You know, you get that. There's even something more. Like sports, for me, like even one game is an entire lifetime. And you see, we watch you guys. We watch your fate. We watch how you deal with adversity, how you fight through it.

1:07:49And it's really an amazing metaphor for a lifetime. And when we get it right in these sports movies, and I felt like we really got it right in Moneyball, in a lovely, beautiful way to add to that lexicon. And I think this one does too on a really big level because the racing is, it's probably the most visceral racing experience you'll ever have. But like all great sports movies, when they're great, there's also a story there. There's also a, you're moved by it. You know, you're, and we're funny as fuck. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. So we got that to deliver it. But this kind of spiritual ending to it all, I'm really proud about.

1:08:31Absolutely. Yeah, the best sports movies, the sport is almost like a background for these metaphors and things that are so relatable to what you're saying. Life and everybody has played sports and they've gone through this. So when you're watching it, when I'm watching this movie, I'm getting goosebumps because you've been in these situations before. Maybe not. I haven't been in an F1 car, but I've been in situations like that. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Everybody thinks back to that and it like it makes you so much more into it. I was about to say, when you're flying at the end of the movie, that's the feeling that I get when that ball is in the air and I'm chasing it and it just gets death.

1:09:05And you could just, you feel in that moment of, and it slows down. It feels like the ball's going, like, it's just a crazy feeling. And I was sitting here watching the end of that race, and I'm just like, I felt like I was flying with you, dude. It was awesome. You guys did an unbelievable job of grasping that. No, that, I mean, that is, and of course we live, you know, we live vicariously through you guys. We, you know, we, our teams, like I knew when the Sooners lost, I did not talk to my dad for three days. That's just like, just stay clear. I'm to ask for an allowance car. I feel the same.

1:09:46And, you know, you know, you know, I, I love, I love the Eagles chiefs rivalry. You know, I'm a chiefs. I'm a, I'm a Missouri boy. I'm an Ozarkian. We got you this year, dog. We got you this year, man. I got you, man. I let you down. I let you down. No, we're trying to see it. That's what I mean about life. You know, life throws these struggles your way. Sometimes everything's falling into place and everything goes quiet and it's perfection. It's sublime. And other days or other periods, life throws these struggles at you. and it's how you deal with those and come back from those, I think, that are what makes sports movies so special.

1:10:25But I do have a confession. You know, I'm friends with Bradley Cooper. Yeah, yeah. He's your prime Eagles fan. That's right. And I'm not saying that I have the power to affect a game in any way. I don't adhere to that kind of hubris. but I did say last year after the Eagles went out, Chiefs were on their way to another victory. And he was getting an award for the Maestro, still probably one of the best movies of this decade. And I was giving him this award. And he's been nominated like 18 times for Oscars. And I closed with, now, did you guys hear this one? No. No. No, no, no, dude. I'm docked in right now.

1:11:13At the Santa Barbara Film Awards, I closed with, Listen, he's been nominated the 1900th time. You know, if he doesn't get it, it's okay. He's used to it. He's a Philadelphia Eagles fan.

1:11:28That laid the groundwork right there. I think he was happy this year. No doubt. Oh, you already know. We didn't talk for two months. Did he hit you up about it? After the Super Bowl, did he shoot you in the text? No. He gracefully let me hurt. It's a pro movie. Just let it sit there and burn. Yeah, that's too funny, man. Well, let's talk Chiefs kingdom. You just said you grew up a Chiefs fan. How has the last decade been? Has this been the pinnacle of Chiefs fandom? I mean, we had St. Louis Cardinals at one time. They were the only ones in my childhood, baseball, who really, well, that's not true.

1:12:07The Royals were landing, too. But football, we were a little weaker. And it wasn't until Devin Hester years where things got exciting for a moment there. And now not until Dynasty. We really like, you know, you feel this sense of, you just feel this sense of pride instead of this sense of like, oh, life's always against us. So it's just, it's kind of extraordinary the way we live through our teams, through you guys and what it means to us. And do you remember the wild world of sports? You guys are probably too young for it, but they used to talk. They always ended with something about success, and they would show an image of that, and then they would end with, and the agony of defeat.

1:12:51And just a guy who just wipes out on the long ski jump. And I just think of life that way and each weekend's that way, and goddamn, thank God for our sports. There we go. Hell yeah, baby. Yeah, man. That's pretty epic, man. Travis, shut up. Brad's talking. I just want you wearing oven mitts till the season starts, my friend. Keep your hands ready. Come on, baby. Come on, baby. These things are nice. Yes. Protect those babies. Protect those babies. All right. Keep these things nice and warm. We got to get you back to Arrowhead, big dog. Come on, man. Have you ever been to a Chiefs game in KC? You know, I never have.

1:13:31No, I never have. I never have. I think in the aughts, I was really pushing for the Saints after Katrina and that Drew Brees era and Sean Payton. And I loved seeing them win at that time. I had a home there. I was spending a lot of time there. Hell yeah. But, okay, this is the year then. There we go. Let's get it out. We never went to any Cleveland's games growing up. I don't know what – I feel like you're growing up. You've got so much going on. But, yeah, I know you're a big New Orleans guy. that'd be awesome down there on bourbon. I feel like Cleveland is just one of those franchises that, you know, there's always that dodgy restaurant on that one corner you can never find parking for.

1:14:12And, and then a year later, it's a new restaurant. And then a year and a half later, it's a new restaurant again. It just kind of feels like they got, that just seems to be the, the, the vibe. Well, Cleveland's like that dodgy. Well, that's definitely the Browns franchise, but Cleveland is a city is just the dodgy restaurant just stays around. it never goes away that's what happens oh man we're gonna get to this uh we gotta ask section i know we're on borrowed time so we're gonna get right to these questions we got to ask you don't have to answer what was it like getting abducted on jackass i loved when these guys came on because again we were all serious about our acting and really you know really serious and suddenly these guys come around and go we don't give a fuck what you think about us in fact we want you to be upset with us and right and we're gonna go out there with no shame so spike jones is a friend of mine and and uh i called him up and said hey man knoxville and the gang you know they got anything going on i'm in yeah this idea of celebrity abduction so i'm standing in the line at pink's big long waiting for a hot dogs famous famous pink's hot dogs and uh enough i've been there long enough for people to go oh that's that's so and so that's that pit guy and then suddenly this van pulls up and all these shirtless guys and hoods get out and grab me throw me in the van i'm screaming like a six-year-old girl and uh yeah it's one of my proudest moments

1:15:46those guys oh my god dude i just met johnny for the first time i was freaking I watched so much of that growing up. So much of that shit. Unbelievable stuff. Did you ever get your hot dog or no? No, I'm still waiting. Those guys, man. We also had a co-star of yours on the show, Little Dicky, where he said he got you to do a cameo in Dave by just sending you an email. Is this real? That's right. He sent an email. Well, he'd heard that. Again, I thought, little man, this is brilliant. What this guy's doing, he's carving out territory no one else has been. Yeah. And I guess he got word, so he wrote me an email.

1:16:33And I thought about it for a night, and I couldn't find a reason not to do it. And that's what I wrote him. I was like, man, I tried. I tried to get out of it. i can i i inquired with buddhist monks and all the great religious minds of the i couldn't find a reason not to do it so i'm in so good it was supposed to be a cameo and then like two nights before i get the script and it's the whole episode i think like dave that's great that's amazing there we were well one of the things that happens on this show has happened multiple times is manifesting things, right? You speak it into existence. Oh, wow.

1:17:14Is there a co-star or director that you haven't gotten to work with that you'd want to? I'm a huge PTA fan. I think he's just damn brilliant. Paul Thomas Anderson. Yeah. Love what he does. All right. Good deal. What quote of yours do people say to you the most from one of your movies? what do you get the most um i get what's in the box still i get bonjourno your ability to play a just a redneck american soldier with the worst italian acts i don't even know how you act that so you couldn't replicate that if you tried anybody Most of the time, I'm just trying to keep the gate on it. Yeah, right?

1:18:03Trying to suppress that down. Have you ever been starstruck by like a co-star? When I first met Gina Davis, Susan Sarandon, I was. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Love that. Yeah. I got over it quickly, though. is it true that you volunteered to get your teeth chipped and fight club what's that like i put my hand i went i'll do it yeah again this was i mean this movie came partially this idea certainly out of the jackass movement so okay yeah we didn't like like we you know we weren't getting facial scrubs and pedicures You know, so let's go the other way. And I had chipped my teeth as a kid, so I just re-chipped them.

1:18:50I just, that's all. Took the bits off. I mean, still, took the oven bits off. Yeah. You're known for constantly eating on the screen. Best food you've ever ate on camera. Damn, I don't know how I get this. Like, people eat in life. Yeah, right. Like, I think it was in Oceans, and I figure he's always waiting around. He's like the consigliere of the group, and he's always doing this and doing this, and he's got to eat on the run. That's all. That's where this came from. There was, like, thought behind it. That's too funny. And now any time I eat in a film, I'm like, I guess I'm a bit of a grazer.

1:19:26But, yes, okay. So that's my name. Everything I've done, that's what I'm known for. The best thing, I had an ice cream sundae. I remember an ice cream sundae, a big parfait thing on. I'll tell you a story. I haven't thought about this for years. It's one of my first movies. I'm doing this little independent film. We're shooting this little tiny cafe. It's full of the crew. So there's about 60 people in there. It's hot. You can't breathe. And my character hadn't eaten for days. And he gets his big plate of beans. First plate of beans and bacon. And I was all like method. You know, I was like, do this right.

1:20:04I'm going to, I'm going to. And I just, and I pow, you know, I just powered down this plate of beans. Take two, do the same thing. take three i do the same thing i do the same thing something hit me oh i know exactly what hit you

1:20:24and there was nothing i could do i was stuck in this chair and nature took its course and and then there was nothing i went oh great i got away i got away with that one and then suddenly the entire crew, the most diabolical something, something, descended on the crew in the whole room, and they fleed the cafe. Fleed. So, the confession you've heard first right here. Hey, that's great. And ever since then, I've paced myself. Beans are doing to you, baby. That's right. You should be proud. Hey, you clear a room. You clear a room. That's it. That was from an offensive lineman. You already know. That's a badge of honor.

1:21:11We had, oh, my gosh, Green, all-time sack leader, one of the up there with the Steelers for a long time. And then he was coaching the Packers, Kevin Gritt. And he came in. He was coaching the D-line. He came into the O-line room to try and give us tips on how to block D-liners. He came in there. Guys are farting. Not to stop. And he was like, you guys are – O-liners suck. Like, I'm out of here. He just left the room. He was like two corners. By the way, if you ever met David Fincher, he is probably the most knowledgeable man about your sport that you will ever run into. Oh, interesting. He would, the minute you mentioned this guy, he would pull his name up.

1:21:50Who's his team? Or is he just a fan? Just love it? He's a lover of the sport, man. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like strategy, strategy, strategy, strategy. We ask athletes this question all the time, but what was your welcome to Hollywood moment? Welcome to Hollywood moment. Okay, I'll tell you my welcome to Hollywood moment. I was I got my first little thing. It was on a, like a little soap opera. And they and my picture was in a like USA Today. Okay, and this was a big deal. Sent to my mom and dad look, you know, look, ma, I made it. And it was with a friend. There was a girl he was really attracted to a couple of girls and we went over to their apartment.

1:22:33and we went through the kitchen, the back door, and I looked down the litter box and there was that picture with a big cat turd on it. Oh!

1:22:44Big cat turd.

1:22:48That sums it up. That's right there. Welcome to Hollywood. And I've never forgotten that. I love it. I love it. Yeah, damn, that's good. Dude, Brad, we appreciate you jumping on, man. We know you got to roll to the premiere, man. Thank you so much for gracing us with your time, brother, and we'll get you, we'll get the Chiefs guys back this year. I'm not worried, and I love you both. I enjoy you both out there, everything you do. Jason, is there any commercial you're not going to do this fall? There might be some for the rest of us. I was going to add, do you have any acting advice for me? How do I do commercials better?

1:23:19How can I nail this? You're crushing it, man. When the Raven in the elevator, that's my favorite. Yes! So good. Also, say what's up to Doug Pitt and Landon Pitt. I don't know if you know this, I climbed Mount Kilimanjaro with your brother he said yes he's got you guys up there he's got joe buck up there and some other yeah yeah that was electric that was a lot of fun how about coming down that was worse you know it's easily the worst part you get so excited you've reached the summer you're like i'm here it's over right now now you got to go back down knees knees knees knees the worst oh boy all right all right love you both thank you thank you so much love you thanks for coming on thank you brother enjoy it man all right oh man shout out to the pit for first of all an amazing movie f1 i fucking love f1 it is good it's very good yeah for taking some time uh before the um the big premiere out in london to come hang with us uh over here at uh new heights baby i feel like the movie is super relatable for where we were at at the end of our careers like you're the older player and there's like a lot of dynamics there i don't know i was i think that's why i like i loved it so much.

1:24:29For sure. Definitely. I'm a swan. I am now a swan. Let's get a little bit of New Heights Food Court brought to you by Hellman's. Not going to lie, Trav. Never in a million years did I think that we would have a mayonnaise sponsor with your very well-known hatred of that product. But here we are. Hellman's is sponsoring the New Heights Food Court. Last week, we put Travis's intense hate to mayo on blast. We've always been talking about it, but Will Levis, mayo lover called you out on instagram and challenged you to give hellman's flavored mayo a try um i'm not gonna give it a try but i know he loves it all right well either way hellman's actually sent me some spicy mayo oh nice jason apparently we didn't send this to travis because we didn't think he would hold up his end of the bargain well i'm traveling i'm everywhere so probably didn't have an address for me that's right that's why that's why that's why that's All righty.

1:25:28So, Travis, are you ready to eat your words? No. But I'll tell you what. Since I've been all over the place, I think I know someone who actually has a love for mayo as much as Will Levis does. And that's intern Brandon. Oh, hey. Oh, hi. Look at it. Look at what they sent me. Look at this. Eat your words. Eat your words on a chicken sandwich, boys. Nothing like a chicken sandwich getting dropped off at your house at 6 o 'clock in the morning. How about it? Yeah. Have at it, boys. You're so fired up. I actually am fired up. This has been sitting here. It's been sitting here for so long. It smells so good.

1:26:10It's got spicy mayo, fried chicken pickles. They got the mayo on the bottom. What else is on that bad boy? Lettuce, I see. They got pickles. I mean, that's everything you need. And they got – there's your spicy mayo. Hold on. Here we go. This is the bite. This is the bite. I don't even know what we're reviewing. like everybody watching this right now knows it's gonna everybody the only person who's wrong is travis but that's fine it's so good on chicken sandwich i'm not being honest it really is no it is it's a nice spice this is good travis i swear to god you you will like it the spicy mayo is good it's very good it's good jason it's solid put this on a sandwich put this on And fried chicken is really good.

1:26:51It's spicier than you think, too, if I'm being honest. Yeah, I think they sent you a sandwich. Everybody that likes mayonnaise has got a sandwich. All the mayo boys got sandwiches. Sucks, Trav. That's a good sandwich. The mayo is a little spice. Very good. Me like you the spicy. Put that on the bottle. Let's give it a little squirt. Damn, hell. Yeah, get you a little squirt. This is disgusting. It's not. Stop it. It's really not. Would you ever do this with ketchup? Squirt ketchup in my mouth to see what it tastes like? If it was like a specialty ketchup, yeah, I would put my finger in it and lick it.

1:27:31Yeah. Try it. Try it, Jason. Try it.

1:27:38It's great. Did you hear that sound? Every squeeze bottle in America makes that sound. That's every squeeze bottle. That's what ketchup, mustard, they all make the fart noise. I got to throw them out before they get to that. I got to toss them. That's good. I'm a big fan of spicy anything, really. I love hot sauce. Is it spicier than you think? I'm definitely getting – they put in a healthy amount of spice. That's a healthy amount of spice. All right. I like it. Travis, we'll get you – we'll bring you over some more. It sounds like I need to give it a try. You will give it a try. Maybe another day.

1:28:09Maybe another day. Okay. That's fine. What would you be willing to put spicy mayonnaise on? A sushi roll? I mean, yeah, that adds up. What kind of sushi roll are you going? What fish? Shrimp tempura. You're going spicy tuna. I can dabble. Tempura's good. I can dabble. I can go any which way. Like an eel? Maybe an eel? Ooh. Unagi. Ooh. Is that eel? I think so. I'm out on octopus. Everything else I'm in on. All righty. On behalf of Mayo Lovers Everywhere, this feels like a huge win. This product that is. It doesn't feel like a win that Travis didn't. Try it. We're going to work on getting him to try it.

1:28:46If you're a mayo hater out there, or if you know a mayo hater out there, challenge them to eat their words with Hellman's Spicy Mayo. That's right. Or flavored mayo. They have other flavors as well. Spicy ones, extremely delicious. Because they may think they hate mayo, but, you know, if they like garlic aioli or a spicy sauce, they may actually love this. That's it for New Heights Food Court. Brought to you by Hellman's. All right, Nat. That does it for old Hellman's, man. I don't know about that one, but I'll give it a try. I'll give it a try. Hey-o. Before we wrap this up, though, let's answer a no-dumb question because that's some of our favorite questions we ever get asked.

1:29:27No-dumb questions is brought to you by Perplexity AI. Discover fast and reliable search with Perplexity AI today. Nice. Brandon, hit us with it. Hi, guys. Heather here. My no-dumb question is about the two-minute warning in football. Okay. Why does it exist? Is it really just a TV thing for commercial rights and broadcasting? Of course. I know it's because it's there. The teams try to take advantage of it for controlling the clock at the end of the half or the end of the game. But does it really have any origin in a football purpose before TV rights? I guess I could look it up, but I'd rather hear you guys talk about it.

1:30:09Go Giants. Yeah. All right. Whoa. Thank you for the call, Heather. So, yeah, thank you. That's a very fair question. That might be the smartest question we ever got. I think I think just right off the bat, I do think there is a bit of like selling some sponsors or get some ads in there from the NFL standpoint. But stopping the clock right before half and right at the end of the game kind of makes it makes it more dramatic and more of a special situation. The rules change a little bit. You can go out of bounds and the clock stops. You know what I mean? you can save time is better at the end of game and a half.

1:30:48Yeah. Dude, I think it's got to be for commercial, and I would be shocked if this isn't for some type of advertising reason. I do think you're right. There are rule changes that happen after the two-minute warning. And it kind of gives each team to regroup. You're playing different football. Yeah, and think about their planned attack, knowing that they're losing time and possibly the ball at the end of half. Maybe this is their last chance to score before they have to give the ball away. You know what I mean? Whatever it may be. I did look it up on perplexity. What does perplexity say, Brandon?

1:31:20I did not know this either, but apparently it was started because officials kept game time and there was no clocks in the stadium. Oh, so it would give it. Oh, wow. That makes sense. So they give everybody literally a two-minute warning. A little heads up here, boys. We've got to wrap this up. Game's almost over. You have two minutes. or you're dead. What a wild way to play football. But yes, you guys are right. Yeah. What a wild way to play football and not know how much time is left in the game. No idea. Like, how do you – This is why we don't count the reps. We just – Dude, what's the saying?

1:31:58This is insane. Don't count the reps when you're doing, like, conditioning. What's the saying they always say, dude? Fucking damn it. I forget what the saying is. I know what you're talking about, though. I was like, no. Like I actually always look at the clock to see how much time is left. I always look at the clock. I always count the reps. I actually usually count the reps. If I'm doing a lot, I'll count it in twos a lot of the time. So it doesn't feel like I'm doing as many just mentally. So like a down and back is one. I'll count laps as opposed to like two like striders. Just so mentally I feel like I'm doing less than I think I am.

1:32:29Right down here. Number four, television and commercials. I believe that's the big one these days. Yeah. We've turned the two-minute warning into a TV timeout. When do we think it's the least likely chance that viewers are going to turn away, tune out of the game when we go to commercial break? Hey, let's do it at the most interesting time of the game, which is two minutes left at the house. And that's where we sell our biggest spots. Yeah, that's right. Wouldn't you love to hear about trucks right now? God damn it, I would. That's the two-minute warning. I did not know that. I didn't realize that they played football.

1:33:07Nobody knew how much time was left in the game. That's fucking wild. They still do it in soccer. Oh, they do. You're right. Shout out to Perplexity. Yeah, shout out to Perplexity. Nailed that one. Giving us that history lesson. Shout out to Heather for the interesting question. Good question, Heather. Good question. Very good question. All right.

1:34:23That was one of the first ones where I was so starstruck that I felt like I struggled to ask questions. Brad, I told you, dude. The whole time it's just like, God damn, this dude's fucking... I should have asked. We didn't bring up that at all. We should have brought that up. I didn't even bring up Snatch. It's my favorite movie. Have you ever seen Snatch? No, I didn't get the reference when you said it. We should do a film club about Snatch. Maybe it's just Brad Pitt fighting. I like Fight Club and I like Snatch. Yeah. I'm with you, though. I couldn't figure out how to ask questions. I was like fucking sitting here like, he's going to think this is stupid.

1:34:52I felt like Chris Farley. What is that? What is that? The Farley Show. Is that what it was? Chris Farley's show. He's interviewing Paul McCartney. Remember when you did Wings? That was cool.

You were flying? I love that part. Dude. I'm a fucking idiot, dude. All right. I mean, it is. It was 7 o 'clock. I mean, it's 6 o 'clock over here. but yeah
