Travis Makes History, Biggest Surprise of Week 8 and A Very Kelce Halloween | EP 162

26:26Matthew McConaughey's book is in there. Getting a daily pep talk from the man himself is a great way to start your day. I mean, that sounds pretty sweet, but when does anyone find time to listen? Well, I mean, listen, just whenever you get a moment, whether you're during workouts, driving, chores around the house, sitting there watching a show that you're really not interested in and you want to be doing something else, make folding laundry. That's pretty good. Listening to a nice audible book. Yeah, I didn't know you folded laundry. That's awesome, man. I don't. But you do multitask. Yeah. I throw it into the basket, at least.

26:59I don't even do that.

27:03multitasking is the name of the game, but seriously, it's awesome. Anyone can learn new stuff or get lost in a story all while handling the regular day to day things. There's more to imagine when you listen. It's true. God, that's such a good line. Sign up for a free 30 day audible trial and your first audible book is free. Visit audible.com slash new heights. All right. Now let's get to the rest of the NFL this week, which was a bunch of fucking blowouts like Jason was mentioning earlier. Let's start with this one. That was, it wasn't necessarily a blowout, but it was a pretty one side. It was a blowout.

27:42Yeah, it was pretty one side. I feel comfortable saying that because the giants already blew us out once. So we'll, we'll call it a blowout. Blow out the blowout. Eagles 38 giants, 20. Obviously one of the biggest storylines of the NFL is Scadaboo had a pretty aggressive ankle injury. Sending all the love to him. Hopefully he can get back. Man, the NFL absolutely loves a motherfucker like that. Just a tough as nails dude. Hopefully he gets back in tip-top shape. Big Dom, Dom DeSandro, sent over some pizza and cheesesteaks. I mean, the guy got a standing ovation as he was getting carted off. Nobody wants to see one of the most loved players in the league get hurt like that.

28:18And obviously what that guy's met to football over the past couple of weeks has been pretty fucking fun to watch. So hopefully he gets back healthy and back to running dudes over and being the epitome of a fucking NFL football player. Yeah, man, I think that you you saw like the link can be brutal to opposing players and fans. I've seen rival teams. Yeah, I've seen the link not handle opposing players getting injured well before. And I don't think it was intentional. Like I think they're just excited about a big hit or something happening. but it was so apparent how much respect everybody in the NFL has for this guy and how he plays the game.

29:00Like, he got a standing ovation getting off the field. Like, very excited to see the future that Cam Scadaboo has in this league and in such a short time to entrench yourself with that much respect in this league just shows. I try to tell young players this all the time. Like, players, oh, the fans are on me about this, or I'm getting unfair credit. dude if you just go out there and you play with reckless abandon you will get cheap like and i bring this story up all the time zach ertz got crushed for a week or whatever the first catch he had he went out there and he ran through like three people broke three tackles and the it was like being carried forward and you know what happened you know what the fans did they fucking erupted in cheers i don't want to hear like oh like they don't they're saying mean things like motherfucker you control it if you got there with great energy and effort you will be loved in the sport of football that's one of the beautiful things about the sport yep people love guys that just have relentless motors so that requires zero talent it just that's just the reality of it that's so spot on man well get healthy big guy um enjoy those cheesesteaks dom dropped off but let's get to this game uh initial thoughts on the game jason i mean this is exactly what we've been waiting to see.

30:14I mean, we've known that the Eagles are talented and that if they can play up to what they're capable of, that they are a very dangerous team. And obviously the Giants have been clicking. They've been playing well recently with Jackson Dart, Cam Scadaboo, although he left early. And I do think that that took some wind out of their sails. The Eagles are rolling right from the get-go. I mean, it started with, what, the second play of the game with that Saquon Barkley huge rushing touchdown. It never stopped. I mean, we've been waiting to see the ground game get going. And a lot has been made about Jalen Hurts in the passing game.

30:47And that started to get fixed the last couple weeks. But I don't think people really realize how much when you're running the ball well, it just makes everything go. Everything. Right? Your play-action passing is better. You're in less third and long situations. You're at more third and manageable even when you get to them. And it just makes the rhythm so much better. And the Eagles ran the ball so freaking well. Landon Dickerson is fine. It looks like he's fully healthy. And he's been there for the last couple weeks. Brett Toth was in for Cam Juergens being injured from last game. And he went in and played center in the Vikings game without any reps during the week.

31:25And it wasn't the best outing, right? That's a tough situation to be thrown into, right? Like you work on guard and these other things all week. And all of a sudden you're live in the game doing the snaps. And he bounced back, man. And there was a lot of criticism all week about the previous game and one of his games of guard. And he honestly was one of the best players up front for him throughout the day. He had a bunch of crucial blocks. He did well in the combinations. He had a lot of fold schemes, pulling around, making blocks at the second level. And something else that I think doesn't ever really get talked, and I know this just because I know Brett, he puts the line in a really – he's going to make sure the calls are right.

32:04And that is such a big part of having a backup go in at center. Because if you're not all on the same page, it's not communicated well, it can make everything fall apart. Fuck yeah. And you could see that those guys were in sync and that everybody was on the same page. And that's half of being successful in the run game, nine times a day, especially if you've got great players, which the Eagles do. You get bodies on bodies, baby. You give a guy like Saquon a chance, man. We're rolling. Brett, you've got to give him his flowers. And I know Philadelphia already is. had an outstanding game. Big Fred Johnson, a lot of six-man offensive linemen in the game.

32:40You want to get the run game going, it always helps when you put a 6 '10 fucking mutant of a human being out there to go pave some fucking run lanes over. And, yeah, they just – they were outstanding all game. Saquon had a day. Tank Bigsby was running the ball really well. Yeah, both went for 100, baby. I mean, there were massive holes, but at the same time, they were also making guys miss, breaking tackles. the eagles clearly were on a mission to establish the run all day they've been waiting for this to happen you could tell they were energized to get it going and they fucking delivered like with some passion it was an awesome game to watch for an offensive lineman's perspective and then of course jaylen was and devante smith in particular were spectacular with the play action don't forget don't forget my god dallas man dallas got in the zone twice baby i was talking to mina of Kimes in the production truck right before one of the games one time.

33:35And we were talking about the little RPO with the tight end sneaks off into the flat in like every red zone or short yardage situation. And it's like, I don't know why we don't do this every time. Like, I don't think anybody ever covers it. And then sure enough, he gets a touchdown right off of that. It's like, yep. So it was similar to you guys. The Eagles right now are rolling in every phase. Now, this was what we've been waiting for. The running game hasn't clicked. This is a great establishing game for the Eagles' ground game. Hopefully, Saquon isn't too banged up, and we can get him back after this bye week against Green Bay.

34:08But if the ground game is cooking like this, they have a great balance right now of Jalen going under center, doing play action. They're still, and then they're doing the RPOs at times, whether it's the fold schemes with Toth or the zone read options where you got Dallas in the flat, whatever it is. They're doing a great job with all of that. And then on top of that, Jalen's operating really well, throwing the ball down the field and getting explosive play so you could not have asked for a better game offensively like you couldn't have yeah so anyways get them boys up front rolling man let's go bubble and then uh what we didn't talk about is the tush push very controversial uh tush push did you see it of course i did and i it's a fumble like they missed it i'm glad you said it it's it's one of those like you gotta fucking blow the whistle and say that his momentum stopped or you got to call it a fumble.

34:55Well, I think that they were trying to blow the whistle, supposedly. I don't know the exact sequencing of it, but his forward momentum wasn't stopped, right? Like, listen, I know everybody wants to get on the tush push. Again, I don't see how this has anything to do with the tush push. Officials miss forward progress calls all the time. All the time. So I know there's been a lot of noise around false starts and now this play, and I get it. And if the tush push truly is hard to officiate, that would certainly be a reason to ban it. I'm not looking to make excuses. I just don't know how these little things have to do with the actual pushing of tushes.

35:29It'll still be an issue if the Eagles run quarterback sneak. That's my one caveat to it. If you allow offensive linemen to false start, they're going to do that, whether there's people pushing the quarterback or not. If you stop forward progress, it wasn't like it wasn't visible. It was visible. The thing was is that his legs weren't on the ground. Right. Right. So it was like he can't go forward anymore other than he's being pushed. Right. Which was like, does that mean his momentum's still going? Because if his momentum's still going, then that's 100 % a fumble. I think his momentum is still going.

36:04I think the officials missed the call. But it happens all the time. I mean, there's this forward progress thing comes up every once in a while. Like, it's not like that unique. And I also, like, one of my favorite things about the whole thing is Giants fans being livid at the officials tweeting at me. I'm like, y 'all are getting your asses whipped. What the fuck are you talking about? The official, like, this ain't no one like this. Yeah, like, I don't know what the hell you're, what game, what game are y 'all watching? How about you yell at your safety for not fucking tackling? What are we talking about the officials for?

36:33I was just like blown away. I was like, listen, you can complain about the officials when your team is kind of keeping it close, but when you're getting your ass whipped, let's, let's be a little, yeah, let's, exactly, exactly. Well, Kayvon Thibodeau gets asked about it after the game, and he says, Sounds like some bullshit to me. Then Brian Burns quickly cautions him, hey, you'll get fined. Oh, yeah, sorry. Thibodeau said, sorry, sorry. No, that was a great call by the ref. I mean, that was a great call by the ref. That'll save you a fine right there. Would you give him a nice compliment afterwards?

37:08Which I don't agree with. Listen, you know me. I do not like complaining about officials. I never have. That's not how I operate. I don't think that you should be fined. I think that's bullshit, personally. Yeah, I can't give my opinion on what I thought about the call. Yeah, what the fuck is this? What the fuck is that? Yeah, it's a freedom of speech, baby. What the fuck are we doing right here? No, I got my fine. I don't think that you should be able to be fined for that. I think that's nonsense. And I am all for having the officials back, usually. But, I mean, listen, it was a bad call. Like, what do you want me to say?

37:35I don't know. Moving on to some other things from Week 8. A lot of Buns games this week. I mean, it's fun. If you wanted to watch the favorite, just beat the ever-loving shit out of the underdog, it was a great week for you. Other than the one game. Other than the one game. The spirit of Nick Mangold got this one done. I really do. There we go, baby. Dude, the Jets winless. There's no hope that they're going to win a game all season. They can't. They got no momentum happening. And obviously, it's been talked about Nick Mangold passing. he's been struggling with the the genetic disorder and needed a new kidney man and you want to talk about one of the stalwart like come on man best offensive lineman to ever play the game oh yeah and i know i get credit a lot for being a lot of people come up and tell me like you're the best center to ever play like i get that from other people and it's hard to receive that because i know in my heart that nick mangled at his best was 10 times a player than i ever was like i could never be that dominant at the center position nick was phenomenal he was unbelievable in pass protection he was an unbelievably smart leader and getting those guys on the same page and he would murder people in the run game he was unbelievable when he was in the nfl he was unbelievable at ohio state yeah he was he's just a stud in every fashion and i mean it's just a travesty that that's happened at such a young age he's got a whole fucking family and he's just one of the most, like when you think about offensive linemen over the past two decades, like the best of the best, you don't look any further than Nick Mangold.

39:10I just think it's really fitting that on the day this whole thing happens, that the Jets go out there and pull off the upset and beat the Bengals. It had me rooting for him, man, and not because it was against the Bengals, just because of, you know, what had went down with Mangold. And it's crazy how it all came down to them having to score a touchdown at the end. and they go with the half-back pass. And it wasn't like a catch and everybody, like, it sucks the defense in. And there was like a wide open. They're like, no, this is our best chance to throw the ball. And it's gloved. It doesn't work.

39:50It's gloved. And he says, you know what? Game on the line. Here we go. Oh, the old toss. Oh, it was. It was open. He was just late on it. Yeah. oh mason taylor baby let's go oh man i don't know if that's his first touchdown man but that's a pretty electric first touchdown if it is sealed the deal well i think there's only one thing to do trev we got to bring in the one man who's been waiting for this all season jets jake please take your victory lap come on in let's fucking go let's go this is what the NFL's made of just dreams did you crack a beer what did you do over there Miami Dolphins when a team loses and they keep their undefeated streak they pop champagne I'm drinking garage beers let's go let's go 1-0 since we had the tattoo guy on the show let's do it 1-0 bring him back on bring case and back on bring them on every week bring them on every week another tattoo we got the buy this week yeah he's he's got to get a sleeve full of jets tattoos sleeve full of jake tattoos i i can't i can't endorse that but when when breeze when breeze hall threw the ball what was going on in your mind i thought he was throwing it away i was like It was the biggest no, no, no, no, yes play of all time.

41:20And then even still, I was like, well, there's too much time left for Joe Flacco. They're going to come down the field. They're going to kick a field goal. And that fourth and nine, like my heart was racing. And then they fucking did it. They had one stop when they needed to get it. The Jets got to fucking win. I don't have to hobby horse into the ocean. I'm very grateful.

41:42Congratulations, Jake. Jake, congratulations, all of you Jets fans. And, yeah, we got to get Casey Barrett back on the show, I guess. Go enjoy those garages, dude. I got to clean up my room. Finish those beers first. Cleaning is always better when you finish your beers first. Yeah. All righty. It was also Travis's favorite holiday, National Tight End Day. I mean, a bunch of blowouts. Tight ends are getting the fucking ball. A bunch of blowouts. What do you expect? Dallas Goddard, two touchdowns. George Kittle got in the end zone. Hunter Henry got in the end zone. David Njoku got in the end zone.

42:11Jake got in the end zone. Harold Fannin Jr. got in the end zone. Charlie Kohler got in the end zone. Mason Taylor got in the end zone. National Tight End Day MVP, Tucker Kraft. 143 yards and two touchdowns. What a fucking day. Trav, were you bummed to not be able to play on the National Tight End Day? I mean, you still had a great day, too. No, I was enjoying sitting down watching National Tight End Day. Nice. Should it be National Tight End Week? No. Thank God you said no to that. All right. We can move on from that now. Jonathan Taylor, MVP watch, man. This guy is fucking on fire. You forget how fast this son of a buck is, man.

42:45Dude, that? God, bro. What was it, the 80-yarder? When he? Holy shit. Him and Gibbs from the Lions, dude. Those two, when they get the fucking open field, bye-bye. The 80-yard touchdown he had, I want to, like, yell at the safety for taking a bad angle, but I don't, like, he goes from, like, whatever he's doing to, like, top-end speed so quickly. Like, it's like, I don't even know how you fucking see that coming. It's like the 200 turn in a track meet. It's like the 200. you're like he just hits that fucking turn and just watch the safety right here like he just how is he fucking he's tight roping it while running 21 miles an hour yeah running away from guys like this dude it's insane unbelievable man guy's a fucking special breed and he's got the fucking the colts rolling right now everybody's got the coaches this past week yeah exactly 14 He's seen touches this past week, 174 yards, two tutties, one receiving TD, all against the division rival Titans.

43:43Yeah. No, he's fucking balling out. And it's not even just him. I mean, their entire offense is playing well. Obviously, Daniel Jones is. I got to give some love to the big guys up front. Big Quinn and Nelson has been a staple there for his entire career. He is having an outstanding year. They got the new center in there, Bordellini. They lose Ryan Kelly. You're wondering how he's going to do. He's playing unbelievable. Their tackles are great. and Bernard Raymond and I think it's Braden Smith and then Gonsalves, the other guard. I mean, they're all playing so well as a unit. They're getting it done, man.

44:13And, dude, you just got to give this guy a little bit of space and he can just turn anything into a fucking highlight. Yeah, he's making shit. Yeah. There was a play. I think there was like a screenshot somebody put up on Twitter where it was like the debate of whether a normal, like an average person can get one yard and the fucking hole that is created is just i mean it's gigantic there it is if it's that then yeah yeah you can get a yard there probably jake you can get in there it's gonna close quick though so i would hurt um you gotta have what he has to get the the rushing triple crown which he's on pace to get for for the second time if he keeps this up but um you could probably get a yard Yeah.

47:23Brought to you by Audible. Let's think about some nominees. Who do we got? We got Chargers Rookie. Who fucking put the mafia in there? I'm not talking about anything. Back in the news due to the end. That's fucking hilarious. That's fucking sick. Back in the news due to the end. It was a wild fucking press conference. Hey, we have an illegal gambling sting. We have Chauncey Billups, Rozier, as well as the Lucchese Gambino and Genevieve's family. Dog, I thought we went legit. I thought that was the whole point of casinos. I thought that it's gone the other way. Dude, I have no idea what the fuck.

48:00It's just crazy. It's crazy to be back in those times. Yeah, it's like a flashback to Goodfellas. I am going to do this. So I'm going to go Miles Garrett because I did Jonathan Taylor for the Hemi on Monday night. And Swag did Miles Garrett and Miles didn't win. So I'm going to give Miles the stamp here. He's just the best defensive player in the NFL. And it was very evident in the Patriots-Browns game this past week. Five sacks in one game. Set the record for most sacks by a player under 30. He is the biggest freak of nature. He was relentlessly getting pressure on Drake May, which is why I'm also going to kind of give a stamp.

48:37I think there's another stamp of the week that needs to be given to Drake May. Drake May has been playing unbelievable. And to go out there and still have the game he had while Miles Garrett was beating the shit out of him is extremely impressive. This guy. This guy's got Freddy Krueger fucking following him everywhere around the field, man. He's just unfazed. Drake May's legit. He's fucking awesome. And Miles Garrett's legit, but we already knew that. All right. Yeah, who are you going with, Trav? what's this uh zach fraser for holding on to the ball when they thought he was oh yeah once you put your hand down on the ball you can't take it off fuck that's funny he's like can i get up so for those of you that don't know once you put your hand on the ball you can't take your hand off of the ball otherwise it's a false start so because he thought it was no huddle and he got up there to do the snap explaining it he had to stay down in that position that's too fucking funny that won't get you the stamp of the week but heads up play i'll give my stamp to carson wentz man he didn't have the hell of a game but god damn it the guy's fucking a ball player he's a warrior man he's a warrior played the last two and a half games for the vikings with a torn labrum and check this out a fractured socket socket and man i saw him get fucking sacked one time in the later later parts of the game when he was just trying to fucking give his team a chance to win and he just landed right on that fucking socket dude that shit is insane man carson man keep being a fucking warrior, man.

50:05Keep fucking trying to will your guys to victory, dog. Hats off to you for being a gutsy football player, man. I'll always fucking give somebody some credit when credit's due, man. Yeah, that was a tough ass. My stamp of the week, brother. Tough motherfucker. That does it for stamp of the week, brought to you by Audible. Well, let us get into the Halloween week. That's right, Trav. Halloween is this week. It is. And we have some New Heights Halloween costumes to reward. We've been asking all of you guys to send us your New Heights themed Halloween costumes and boy, you delivered. Let's check out some of these Halloween costumes we've been tagged in.

50:47Travis Kelsey Couples Costume from Cara Mehta. I wonder what this includes. What the fuck? It was a couples party and my wife got me to dress up like Travis Kelsey, which is not a good idea when you're driving around your neighborhood and all of your neighbors think that you're a major douchebag. But when your wife is Andy Reid, it was worth it. Ah, yeah! I definitely expected not Andy Reid. So, well done. Love that. New Frights, which we talked about on the show. This is the Halloween set-up. yard display that we talked about. This was an awesome one. Still looking good. Pretty solid. Yep. Pretty solid.

51:35Cut the hard eyes from a man, Travi. Dog is Taylor's ring. What the fuck does that mean? I gotta see this. So, that's adorable. That's a fucking great costume. That's a good costume. That's a 10 out of 10. Hey, dog costumes in general are awesome. That is amazing. Hilarious. I love the fingernail. Vegas Jason from Chiefs Super Bowl. Oh, yeah. That's fucking good. Dude, he's got the whole getup. Hell yeah. That's fucking gold. Where did you even find these fucking overalls, man? Beagle, Travis, and Taylor. Let's take a look at this one. Dog costumes, man. That shit's gold. I am a sucker for dog costumes.

52:21Is that dog on the left even real? That looks like a stuffed animal. Look at that thing. Timeout. Zoom in on the one on the left again. That thing looks like it's like taxidermy. Look at its face. It's like waxy. It really does. Dog, look at this thing. That does not. Look at its mouth. What's happening with that dog? Look at its eyes. That thing's dead, right? That's like a. What are those called? That's like a clay museum. What? Like, what are those things? I know exactly. The wax museum. It's like a wax museum dog. Yeah. Damn. That's fucking funny. My winner. I'm going with the. I'm going with Jason from the Chiefs Super Bowl.

52:56No, don't you fucking dare. That's fucking spot on, dude. That is not the winner. The winner is clearly the fucking adorable dachshund with the fingernail for a head. That is clearly the best costume in this bunch. Followed closely by Andy Reid and Travis Kelsey as a couple's Halloween outfit. That's fucking hilarious, too. We're going with the dachshund? Yeah, I'm going with dachshund. That's cool. Congratulations to the woman with the finger dachshund with the ring on it and a fingernail head. That was a great costume idea. Very creative. Looks to be homemade. Well done. We don't know what your prize is yet.

53:31We don't even know what your name is, so we'll figure it out. We've also got some Halloween voicemails. Love a little voicemail section. Who doesn't love voicemails? Hearing from the fans, 92 percenters. What do we got? Hey, fellas, fellas, fellas. We got Halloween coming up. And I'm not a guy that really dresses up. I grew up with brothers. We had to do family costumes growing up. I bet you guys probably did some thing one and thing two or bulk and skull from the Power Rangers, you know what I'm saying? But for us gentlemen now in our 30s and we've got girls that, you know, want to go dread. What are you guys flying with?

54:06What are some ideas that are going to keep us looking good and feeling good while I'm dressed up looking stupid? Looking stupid. Nice. All right now. This guy might have been hammered. I like this guy. Yeah, I liked everything about that call. That was good. Just when you thought it was over, it wasn't. I'm all about looking stupid at this point. Right? I don't like. Stupid are the better. Yeah. Dressing up on Halloween to be cool is like, I don't know. I have more fun with it when it's like, oh, I can laugh at this costume because of how obnoxious or how silly it is. Anything nostalgic to the 80s or 90s if you're in your 30s is going to hit really well.

54:44Andy Reid is always a good option. I don't know. I mean, there's a lot of different ways you can go about it. But I will say, for me, my costumes now are just essentially what my kids want to wear. Like, I'm Kristoff this year just because that's what Ellie and Y and Benny, they're all going as Elsa. So, I'm Kristoff. I don't want to really reveal Kylie's costume because that'll get revealed later this week, but it's fantastic. So, I feel like in your 30s, once you start having kids, like, you don't even get to choose anymore. You just are. Whatever the kids. You get lumped in with your kids. Nice.

55:17I'm a big sucker for just going up to the Halloween store and just getting the stupidest fucking costume that's already. I forget the brand, but they just come in those orange-like square. I know exactly what you're talking about. Yep, yep. And just go get the fucking dumbest one. So, yeah. Just go be dumb. There's few things where it's socially acceptable to be dumb, and Halloween is one of them. So, go be dumb. That's good advice. What's this next one? Best childhood costume. Sounds pretty self-explanatory. Hey, Jason. Hey, Travis. My name is Haley, and I am also from Ohio. My question is, what were you guys' Halloween costumes growing up?

56:01Did your mom ever make you guys' Halloween costumes, or were you guys the ones that bought your Halloween costumes online? and if so what was the favorite halloween costume you guys had as a kid thanks guys well first off when we were kids there was no online i was about to say we know when we were trick-or-treating like dial-up had just started you weren't fucking buying shit online yeah uh i feel like we always went to like a a Halloween store, a costume store and grab something. I feel like one time mom did the like, she cut the eyes out ghost thing. I don't know why that rings a bell, but yeah, usually we went, we had like the costume store or the Halloween store.

56:49One year we had like the fake blood and stuff like that. And we were using that. That was fun. We were Ninja Turtles the one year. What was our best costumes? Power Rangers. We were Super Mario brothers in high school, but that was not for trick or treating. I was a football player and a baseball player probably 90 % of the time. We stopped trick-or-treating very young. Dad did not condone teenagers trick-or-treating in our house. Once you hit the teens. Doesn't mean I wasn't out and about being a fucking little shithead. That's fair. That's fair. Well, we would hide in the leaves and scare everybody.

57:22Yeah. Scaring everybody, jumping out of the leaves. That was my dad's version of teenage Halloween fun. Dad just likes scaring people. He does. He was a big like, and as a current dad, I concur. Like scaring kids is important. I firmly believe that. Making a kid cry. I mean, it doesn't have to cry. It could just be like a little, like, I think it's a good thing to do these days. Mom apparently has sent in some childhood pics. Did you know this, Travis? Of course I didn't. Yeah, me neither. And I saw this in the rundown and Brandon and Jake would not give me the lowdown. So, yeah, let's take a look at some of these.

58:02Oh, my God. Look at that pirate. Dude. That's a fucking. I was a football or baseball player. Yep. Bernie Kosar over there. What else have we got? Is that you? No, that's you, dude. What? That's me? That's you. The fuck am I? What is this? I mean, it's obvious. No, it's got to be some type of. It's got to be a dragon, right? That's a fire breathing dragon. That makes sense. That makes sense. It's got like the long tail-ish thing. Nice. Spider-Man, Batman. Yep. That makes sense. Look at those guys. I don't have anything cool to do as Batman. All right. That was not a Halloween costume. It was like pajamas.

58:44We didn't go trick-or-treating there, right? Yeah, I think we were just chilling. I don't know. I think mom would probably have. She would have known? Well, I think the socks, no socks and shoes on. just say those were those were our pajamas but right bernie again multiple years yeah i think that's just i just want to wear my helmet every day yeah i think that was like my everyday get home from preschool and throw my football uniform on all right what do we got next ah this is the older one from high school super mario brothers you can see one brother is way more into it than the other brother yeah well one brother got forced to be you look great though dude you're crushing it you're fucking crushing it i think i ended up winning that fucking halloween costume what do you mean contest what cost i think could you made us dress up so that we could enter the contest the halloween contest what cost i don't remember this there's a contest halloween contest Yes.
