Chase Utley, Mt Rushmore of Basic Girl Instagram Captions, Training Camp Has Started And Listener Submitted FAQ's

11:02Big Cat:Poly market but for sports. Yeah. That's what he's going to be investing on.

11:05PFT Commenter:Might be on the cusp of something.

11:06Big Cat:I do think that it's impossible to draw conclusions as to how the Cowboys are going to play this year just based on Jerry Jones and where he's at. Because he does this every year. Yeah. He does this every week.

11:16PFT Commenter:Yeah.

11:16Big Cat:So he wants the spotlight on him. The Cowboys might be good this year. They've got good players.

11:21PFT Commenter:Yeah.

11:21Big Cat:But it does seem like it's – Schottenheimer's going to get a very quick crash course in having Jerry Jones outshine anything and everything that you do all the time. Big time. Big time.

11:32PFT Commenter:You also – I know we brought back hurt or injured last on Monday. for the snack wrap, I'm just going to bring this back right now. The, uh, you think? Because Saquon Barkley is saying that if he could go back in time, he would like to get paid all in Bitcoin. That has gone up 7x since he started in the NFL. Uh, you think? Uh, no, duh. He basically was like, yeah, I would have rather gotten paid seven times the amount.

12:01Big Cat:I wonder if the Giants had offered him the contract that they were offering him, but in Bitcoin, if he would have taken that. Do you guys have any Bitcoin? I bought... I'm heavily leveraging Doge.

12:12PFT Commenter:I think I bought a half of Bitcoin in like 2016. I don't know how to get it.

12:16Big Cat:I got the Doge. It's in a wallet somewhere. I buy a little bit every month. I have like an automatic. Do you? Yeah.

12:21PFT Commenter:Good for you. That's the way you're supposed to do it, Hank. That's super impressive.

12:24Big Cat:Shout out to my brother.

12:25PFT Commenter:That's actually really impressive. Hank's the richest guy at Marshall. How did you do that?

12:29Big Cat:My brother told me to set it up. Teach me how you did that.

12:34PFT Commenter:Well, if - That's so smart. I don't know how to do any of that stuff. Yeah. Yeah, that's sick. Yeah, that's pretty good. That's a really smart thing he did. Damn, are you - That might be smartest thing you've ever done. My brother's a smart guy. Yeah.

12:45Big Cat:This was like four years ago at Christmas.

12:47PFT Commenter:He was just like - That's sick. A little bit of Bitcoin every single month. I do the thing where if it goes up, I'm like, can't buy it now. And then if it drops, I'm like, oh, I got to buy all of it right now, which you're not supposed to do.

12:58Big Cat:Oh, I do. If it goes up, I'm like, I missed it. If it goes down, this is the end of Bitcoin. Yeah. That's what I think. Yeah. So my bottom line is I just never buy it. I did have a guy in 2012 tell me, you should buy this Bitcoin. And it was like 80 bucks. And I bought some energy stock that went to zero. There's some stories about that. There was like a guy. 2016 in our office. Like, yeah, I remember Lewis. I used to make fun of Lewis and Caleb so much because Caleb like didn't have a lot of money and put all of it in Bitcoin. And then we'd be like, I have no money. And I would always give him shit.

13:29Big Cat:And then, you know, six years later, he's like, yeah, that worked out. I feel like Doge is going to take Bitcoin over at some point. I saw... Quig says the best story here. Oh, yeah. He got paid, right? No, no. He used to... He has a hard drive or something. He used to use Bitcoin to pay for fake IDs back in high school, and he had an extra$100 that was just left over in the account, and it's worth millions now, but he just can't get back on the account.

13:56PFT Commenter:Oh, he's got to get someone to help him.

13:58Big Cat:It was in high school, because that was the easiest way. It was like the only untraceable way to like use the dark web. And he just it's just out there. I would think about that all day. Every single day. Like I would just sit in a room thinking to myself, one of these moments, I'm just going to remember the password.

14:15PFT Commenter:Dude, there's a guy who recently, I think it was like a few days ago, sold all his Bitcoin that he bought. He bought$54 ,000 of Bitcoin in 2011. What do you think it sold for?

14:29Big Cat:1.2 bill.

14:30PFT Commenter:9.6 billion Jesus Why'd he just sell now?

14:34Big Cat:I don't know He better be buying a team Yeah Like can you imagine Not selling once you hit a billion? It's crazy And also Why would you sell all of it? I'd probably sell when it was like 100 ,000 Why wouldn't you sell like Half of it And keep half of it? Yeah He probably did He probably has more But that's

14:50PFT Commenter:We

14:50Big Cat:We missed the boat We missed the boat boys

14:53PFT Commenter:We We We Screwed the pooch on the Bitcoin thing Not Hank

14:56Big Cat:Hank's got Hank's fucking swimming in it Yeah but imagine if

14:58PFT Commenter:If you could just go back in 2010 you and just be like, hey, do you have like$1 ,000 laying around? Because in 15 years, it's going to be$100 million.

15:08Big Cat:Yeah. I didn't. Yeah, I was a little boy. I don't know you're a crypto guy like that, Hank. Crypto king. Again. You are. Shout out to my brother. Just make your profile picture like the Bored Ape version of Hank. Hank, crypto expert of the show now. Yep. He is. UFC and golf

15:38PFT Commenter:You're our expert Actually the expert on when we can say football is back Alright what else? Oh Chris Paul is back for the Clippers Maybe retirement tour? They've got a great lineup They do James Harden, Bradley Beal, Chris Paul Bogdanovich Chris Dunn that's their guards Kawhi Leonard John Collins Derek Jones Nick Batum and then Zubach and Brooke Lopez as their center stick if this is the year if this was 2019 big three team yeah this is 2019 I got I got Clippers setting records in the holy shit the

16:14Big Cat:Clippers are gonna be awesome some other big NBA news well I one last thing about Chris Paul real

16:18PFT Commenter:quick this is interesting because if this is gonna be his retirement year we might have a retirement off i don't think lebron wants to retire the same time as chris paul you think they want to split that up i think they might i think it might be a retirement off which i i love a retirement off that's good it's it's going to be like who's going to retire first with the other person stay an extra year just because they didn't want to retire the same year as that guy you got to think about

16:41Big Cat:the the hall of fame one day yep yep you do who's going to get first billing obviously lebron uh do you think we're still give chris paul's speech at the hall of fame that'd be sick yeah I think so.

16:53PFT Commenter:What was your other NBA thing?

16:54Big Cat:It's a rumor right now, but I think that we should talk about it, about the possibility. Hot rumor on the streets right now. Ben Simmons has been linked to the Boston Celtics. Whoa. What do you think about that, Hank? Who linked this? I think that was the dunk central. Okay. Not central. I don't think I got central on it. Central. Stool Greeny was talking about it. Stool Greeny, per Stool Greeny. Hank, your thoughts? I trust Brad Stevens. I don't think this is going to happen. I think there's a better chance Terry McLaurin plays for the Patriots than Ben Simmons plays for the Celtics. Okay. Well, right now the Boston Celtics have engaged in conversations with the 76ers revolving around Simmons and expressed interest in the 6 '11 guard sources tell the athlete.

17:42Big Cat:With who? With the 76ers. This is back in the day. Wait, quick, quick, buy Bitcoin. okay the Celtics time traveling I read I read the wrong tweet the Celtics are reportedly interested in signing Ben Simmons per the Stein line God so it is a real report I think Boston Phoenix New York and Sacramento that is what the sign line said that's four teams Celtics Hank let

18:08PFT Commenter:me ask you a question we if Ben Simmons signed with the Celtics how quickly will you sell yourself on Ben Simmons because I do think Ben Simmons is still oh I would love if Ben Simmons had a renaissance it's the guy who's like he's somewhere in there he's got to be that guy like 1000 %

18:25Big Cat:would be an all-star yeah that would be awesome good I would be rooting for him the benefits also like next year's kind of just house money like who cares we're not going to be that good so why not have some fun Ben Simmons is not fun he could be he could be if he was good I would have so much

18:43PFT Commenter:Oh, my God. You'd be the world's number one Ben Simmons fan. We have to root for this now.

18:48Big Cat:Terry to the Patriots. Not happening. I just wanted to talk about something else. Not happening.

18:55PFT Commenter:You want to talk about something else? Hey, was that? That was crazy, the catcher interference.

20:59Big Cat:Boar's Head, committed to craft since 1905.

21:03PFT Commenter:All right. Henry.

21:05Big Cat:My first hot seat was Memphis football.

21:07PFT Commenter:Okay.

21:09Big Cat:They tried. What was that? What was that? Max is bringing up a tweet. This was one minute ago. What was it? Breaking moves.

21:15PFT Commenter:Breaking moves. Breaking moves. Do the typewriter. Do it. Do it. Breaking moves.

21:25Big Cat:Oh, I'm so excited. Washington wide receiver Terry McLaurin is seeking a new contract.

21:29PFT Commenter:No. Scott report to training camp today per source. McLaurin was not present for the commander's conditioning test today that marked an unofficial start to training camp. all other players are present and accounted for just not mclaurin slow news i mean that's pretty

21:41Big Cat:good like one one for the team is is not bad we're talking about guys that aren't here i want to focus on the guys that are here right pft i'm gonna continue to have your back he's gonna sign he's gonna sign they both inside this happens every this happens every training camp they both want to make it happen it's going to happen terry's a again a three jersey guy but it's redskins football team commanders can i give you a spin zone as well yep i didn't see anywhere in that report that he left the state he did not he is uh probably in virginia right now yeah so in state still in state has not that we know of left the state i do love this just new i hope it's like

22:20PFT Commenter:a new fad that if you hold out you have to leave the state just get out of get out of dodge for a while just to prove just go across that trey hendrickson should have just gone to kentucky

22:28Big Cat:yeah just go across the bridge let me ask you guys this um what what do you think terry is worth right now because the market has kind of been set by the top 40 million dollars 40 million dollars a year yeah okay uh that's probably it's probably not doable i think he's pretty good he's really good yeah i think he'll settle for like 28 that's my official prediction 28 three years 28 how much guaranteed uh we're gonna do 53 million guaranteed okay that gets it done i like that Get Terry in the door.

23:02PFT Commenter:Oh, you're looking up Garrett Wilson's contract for comparables? Although Garrett Wilson is younger. Terry's 30. $130 million extension. Four years. What did you say? Three years, 58? I had it.

23:19Big Cat:No.

23:19PFT Commenter:Yep. Yeah. No, that was a guaranteed money.

23:22Big Cat:Guaranteed 53. I had him at$28 million a year.

23:25PFT Commenter:Okay. So the deal includes$90 million guarantee for Garrett Wilson. So that's not too far off.

23:33Big Cat:He's going to sign. You'll be fine. It's going to be good. It's going to be fine. I think it's going to be wonderful. Baby fat Devo. My hot seat is the Big 12. Or Memphis.

23:44PFT Commenter:Okay.

23:45Big Cat:They tried to join the Big 12. Offered$250 million to join the Big 12. And got declined. That's tough luck. That's a... You got to just cancel the football program. I feel like anywhere, any organization should be able to join the Big 12 for$250 million cash. Yeah, easily. Doesn't matter who you are. Yeah. PETA should be able to join the Big 12 for$250 million.

24:12PFT Commenter:Absolutely. We should be able to join the Big 12 for$250 million.

24:15Big Cat:You know what? A non-competitive athletic university. I'll offer$251 million to the Big 12 if they'll accept part of my take.

24:25PFT Commenter:Dude, imagine if this Bitcoin guy just bought the whole Big 12.

24:28Big Cat:Yeah.

24:29PFT Commenter:Just made him play at his house.

24:30Big Cat:Yeah, it was a tough look for Memphis to get rejected, but they're back in the American. It's the American. Yeah, it's just the American conference. Which I like. They dropped athletic from the conference name. So they're just the AC?

24:44PFT Commenter:They're the American. Yeah.

24:46Big Cat:But what's the AC?

24:48PFT Commenter:The American. AC. You can add conference if you'd like to. I refer to it as the American.

24:54Big Cat:But if you were going to abbreviate the conference.

24:57PFT Commenter:USA.

24:58Big Cat:Conference USA. Yeah.

25:00PFT Commenter:It might get a little confusing. We are the American. They dropped the athletic.

25:06Big Cat:Not even North American. I feel like all conferences have to be. I guess not. What? Three letters, but no.

25:14PFT Commenter:No. Definitely not. Southern. Southern Conference. Yeah.

25:20Big Cat:SCAC. All right. My other hot seat. The Red Sox. I want to be mad more about the ruling, but it was a pretty egregious play by the catcher the red sox lost on walk-off catcher's interference second time it's ever happened in mlb history first time since 1971 the problem was the catcher just stuck it like it was it was the batter was not swinging it was a check swing he was also a mile behind the ball like even if he swung he was going to miss badly but the catcher threw his hand so far out it was technically letter of the law catcher's interference red sox had a 10 game winning streak going to the all-star break one in three cents i was i'm i'm still you know running next to the next to the the bandwagon train but i haven't had a good chance to hop on faster than you or you it's starting to go faster it's starting to lose me is the train coming towards you or going away from you it's we're running in the same direction he's trying to catch the train trying to catch up so the train got started you're sprinting after the train yeah not even sprinting i'm kind of just deciding like you I'm so fast, obviously, that I'm like, do I want to jump on this train or no?

26:31Big Cat:Is it going in a direction I want to be on? Or is it a waste of my time? Yeah, how close attention are you paying? Like last night? I was watching. I mean, it was Phillies. I was ready. I was ready. I was ready. And now is that just because it was against Max's Phillies? Well, I mean, I went to two games last week. I'm tuned in. I've been tuned in since the All-Star break.

26:52PFT Commenter:This is the best. I mean, this is the time when we're going to give trade deadline next Thursday. is when we start having some big-time series. I mean, the Cubs just got caught by the Brewers. The Brewers just will not lose. They do not lose. It's insane. They do not lose games. So it's going to be like the Cubs play the Brewers like eight times coming up. Phillies, do the Phillies play the Mets soon? I'm sure. Yeah. I mean, I need you more jacked up about the Phillies.

27:22Big Cat:I don't have a lot of confidence in the Phillies right now. Is that because of the trade deadline stuff? All of the Mets, we play the Mets two more times, both in August and September.

27:31PFT Commenter:Yeah. Those are fun series, though. You're half a game up right now.

27:36Big Cat:Yeah, Max, you've got to lock in.

27:37PFT Commenter:You've got to lock the fuck in, dude.

27:39Big Cat:I just don't have a lot of confidence in this team right now. Max Delente needs to step up. Get the fuck up, dude. Hank's stepping up. Baseball season. I mean, I'm tuned in. I'm tuned in. I watch every game. It's just, I don't know. They're a frustrating squad. You won last night. I know. And also, it was bases loaded no out. They were like, chances are.

28:03PFT Commenter:Yeah, but it was more fun that the ump had to come back and award the win.

28:07Big Cat:Yeah.

28:07PFT Commenter:That's a fun ump call.

28:09Big Cat:No, it's a great ump call. Great ump call.

28:11PFT Commenter:Your cool turn?

28:12Big Cat:My cool turn is crack talk. Yeah.

28:15PFT Commenter:Yeah.

28:17Big Cat:Max, we put out the Barstool Bass Fishing Tournament. Max's crack made an appearance once again.

28:25PFT Commenter:Always. How'd you do in that tournament, Max? I caught a fish.

28:28Big Cat:Our team caught the biggest fish.

28:29PFT Commenter:Yeah, that's a great point. Excellent point. Did you also catch the smallest fish?

28:34Big Cat:I don't know.

28:34PFT Commenter:That wasn't tracked, I don't think. Yeah, I don't think that was tracked. No, they did. They weighed every fish. Yeah, how much did your one fish weigh max? And we were out there for four hours. PFT, how many fish did we catch? We caught a ton of fish. We caught like 20 fish. I caught a fish. You caught one fish. Yeah. And it was alive? Yeah. That was a little bit of a pause. It was.

28:54Big Cat:Was it a minnow? It was a fish. Big mouth bass. Yeah, big mouth bass. Not a small mouth bass. It's a baby bass? It's more than a pound. Size doesn't matter.

29:05PFT Commenter:Four hours, one fish?

29:08Big Cat:He was doing the net. We were a team. This was a team game. You guys don't understand teams. Well, no, we do because we won. We won the whole damn thing. No, but it's selfish. We caught celery fish.

29:19PFT Commenter:How were we selfish? Did you notice I just said, PFT, how many fish did we catch? We caught a ton. You guys are talking about your same. Hank is talking about his big fish. I said our team caught the biggest fish. And you keep saying I caught a fish.

29:31Big Cat:Well, because you're saying that I didn't catch a fish.

29:34PFT Commenter:Well, I mean, it wasn't really a fish. Who's to say? I guess this is more of a political debate. When does a fish become a fish?

29:40Big Cat:Yeah. Right? Mm-hmm. It was a big fish. We did well. Yeah. Crack was out. We were cracking. We were cracking up. Okay. You guys had a great time. Yeah, we had a great time. Great time. All-time vibes on the boat with you and your boys fishing. can't beat it I do watch that video it's very fun I think I like fishing now it's such a relaxing fun thing to do let's go get a tune we should put a disclaimer

30:07PFT Commenter:we caught like 20 fish in 4 hours it's very fun when you catch fish going fishing and not catching fish is not fun

30:13Big Cat:that should be a video that we do someday

30:17PFT Commenter:us fishing with no guides alright so let's do it Maybe we'll do it in, you know, we'll do it at Camp Barstool. A PMTV of us at Camp Barstool fishing.

30:27Big Cat:There's no way there's fish in that.

30:28PFT Commenter:I, we went, remember last year? Oh, they have those, yeah. We not only went, we went and it was the most ridiculous thing ever because we went out on a boat for like an hour. None of us caught fish except the photographer that we were paying for caught a fish. And then he made me take a picture of him with his fish.

30:47Big Cat:With his camera?

30:48PFT Commenter:Yes. That's awesome. What the fuck, man? That rocks. That rocks. It was crazy.

30:53Big Cat:I believe Max can be good at fishing, but I think that the best way to settle it, maybe have Max go up against professional fishermen and see if Max can catch a third as many fish or half as many fish as these professional fishermen can, and he has to keep fishing until he's able to catch, let's just call it six fish. Six fish against a really good team of fishermen, and we can make a video out of it. I like that. What do you think, Max? I'm confused but I'm in Okay You'll get right on it

31:30Big Cat:You're Italian? Memes just got it I am Italian Oh Oh Oh the Wait a minute I still don't think I get it Yeah No The shark guy? Yep Yeah Oh got it Shark guy Shark guy Shark guy But also Hunter Biden was on Channel 5, he did a Channel 5 interview and he broke, he had a long explanation, breaking down the difference between crack and cocaine. I saw a very funny tweet that was like, this is what Gruden looks like when he's breaking down quarterback.

32:04PFT Commenter:You can tell he's passionate. Or LeBron doing the Mind the Game podcast. LeBron talking about wine. It was quite, I didn't know half the things he said. I was like,

32:14Big Cat:holy shit. Yeah, when someone's passionate about something and they're breaking it down, it's interesting no matter what it is. It was informative. Hunter would be a blast to hang out with for one night. Maybe like six hours. Six hours of Hunter Biden. You don't need anything else. Damn. I think he listens. Yeah. To this show? What up, Hunter? We'd have Hunter on. Probably like a four to five time AWL. Yeah. Yeah.

32:34PFT Commenter:Somewhere around there. Maybe missed the year in the middle. Yeah. Shit was going on. Got a little busy.

32:40Big Cat:Yeah. The laptop was, there were some viruses on there. What do you think? Take care of it. What speed do you think he listens to this episode at? 3.5. 3.5. Listen, we'll have Netanyahu on. Full send, bro. Listen, we'll do Netanyahu. We don't care, okay? We'll do Netanyahu, Hunter Biden, Putin, Coney, LeBron, anybody.

33:04PFT Commenter:Anyone.

33:05Big Cat:Memes, what are you making? Max still doesn't get it. I've been explaining to him.

33:09PFT Commenter:Shark guy.

33:12Big Cat:Yeah, the shark thing, Max. He's still trying to explain it. What are you confused about? I don't understand it. You're doing a video against people that are really good at a sport, and you have to compete against them at that sport, even though you're not very good at it. Pros versus Joes? Yeah.

33:33Sorry.

33:34Big Cat:He will. I have faith. Yeah. He'll get there. You can be on a dinghy, a dinghy boat. You can go dinghies only. Oh. Six. Got it. Six outs. Got it. Got it. I got it. Got it. I get it. I get it. I get it. I haven't done the thing. It's only challenge.

33:57PFT Commenter:Oh, man. The shark guy. The shark guy. I thought you were trying to say what that was.

34:01Big Cat:I don't either.

34:02PFT Commenter:And then there was also the thing where he, there was a moment where he was shark guy. Then he was like seven fishes Italian. Yeah. And then.

34:09Big Cat:I thought you were talking about the football coach that laid naked with the shark. Oh, Jim McElhain. Not him.

34:14PFT Commenter:Not him. Not him. Confirm not him. him don't even say it's him all right good hot seat cool throne thanks pft great job hank uh my hot seat is rfk stadium rfk stadium in dc kind of on the hot seat right now because we have not one

34:30Big Cat:but two surprise leading candidates for president in 2028 who are putting the project in jeopardy uh president donald trump and stephen a smith have both weighed in on the subject stephen a smith's idea was to build one stadium in maryland and then have the ravens and the commanders share it which is maybe the dumbest thing that steven a smith has ever said wasn't that the bangles bears thing that was florio that was florio that was also dumb yeah but where would they have played

34:58PFT Commenter:would they florio was saying like an hour no florio's saying you build the you move the bangles to chicago but i was saying like let's just put it in middle indiana yeah yeah but but

35:08Big Cat:steven a smith actually said he thinks that it would be great if they could share number one the ravens baltimore and dc are like an hour over an hour apart right depending on traffic it could be sometimes more um the ravens all already have a stadium that they're renovating right uh the big point of contention of the dc though the washington commander stadium was that it was too far away from dc so why would we put it halfway there just maybe the dumbest idea ever that stephen a smith brought up and then uh then president trump weighed in and this is the this is tough because he gave us a nickname that I fear will stay.

35:43Big Cat:Was this real? Yeah. What was the nickname? He called us the Washington Whatevers. And it's a fucking banger. You got to take your hat off to the guy. That sounds like a boomer. The Washington Whatevers should change the name back to the Redskins because he found out that the stadium is located, RFK Junior Stadium, where the second RFK one is going to be, that's on federal property, but they leased it out to the city council to then determine what to do. Got it. I think, I don't know, everything. Is he trying to change the topic about anything else? No, I think he's just very passionate about the Washington football team's team name.

36:19Big Cat:But, yeah, the way that it goes, I think that if he were to do this move, it should have been done in November before they gave the rights to the city council. I think it might be too little too late, but he's playing the hits right now. Yeah. And so I just, you know what? It's a welcome distraction from Terry McClure.

36:39PFT Commenter:Yeah. Was that your cool throne? That was my hot seat.

36:43Big Cat:And then my cool throne is my basement. Oh. Because I fucking killed the spider. Yes. I found the spider the morning after we did the podcast on Thursday. And Blake saved my life. And then I saved his life. He saw the spider across the room, barked at it. I got up, smashed the fuck out of that thing. Who saved who? Me and Blake together. But yeah, my basement is now certified spider free. That's the question. There was only one spider. was that the same spider you saw it was the same are you sure yeah greg is greg the spider right yeah that was the only spider that's down there he looked the same it's brown recluse you got to start tagging him killed it like like sharks there's no shark guy there's no need did anyone like reach out to you and say that if you see one brown recluse there's a good chance that you see a lot of brown recluse nope because i saw people saying that nope did not hear from anybody regarding the amount, the estimation.

37:37Big Cat:Nobody's doing a census of brown recluses in my house. Solo traveler. I think I left the door open one day. A single brown recluse would have been better than a single hornet. They're called brown recluses. They're shy.

37:48PFT Commenter:They don't like that. They're more scared of you than you are of them. Fact. I love that. Whenever any animal that could maul you to death. Well, actually, they're more scared of you than that. Well, I still don't want to fucking swim with a hippopotamus.

38:00Big Cat:Yeah, but I'm sure that was the only one. They both aren't scared of you. No.

38:03PFT Commenter:No, I'm pretty sure they are.

38:04Big Cat:No. No, no. I think hippos are the one example of that. I'm more scared of a hippopotamus than it is of me. That's confirmed.

38:12PFT Commenter:But I'm more scared of every animal than they are of me. Like when people say like, oh, yeah, the black bear is more scared of you than you are of them. No, that's not true. That one might be true. No, but I'm saying if I saw a black bear, I'd be very scared. But they're kind of bitches. Do you think they would be as scared as I would? I would be very scared. I think so. I don't know. I think that's one of those situations if you saw any type of deadly animal like a shark they say that with sharks that's not true that's not true about sharks people just assume my scared level it's higher although I would fuck all these animals up what am I saying

38:46Big Cat:stop bringing up brown recluse spider bites please I got bit by brown recluse back in like thousands

38:53PFT Commenter:hippo was a bad poll by me they're they're not generally scared of humans in fact they are known to be highly aggressive and territorial bad pull yeah

39:04Big Cat:bad pull i think any other kind of bear polar bear they're not scared at all but again i would

39:11PFT Commenter:be so scared like even if they if you said like oh they're not they're more scared of you than you are no i'm i think it i think hippos i would be more scared of them than they are of me

39:20Big Cat:yeah wait what i said yes we're agreeing yeah yeah hippos polar bears same thing will fuck you up moose except they can't swim

39:30PFT Commenter:is that true yes now I'm back now I'm back I don't know they can run in the water run on the bottom do you guys know that's scary run on the bottom they float they can't swim I think they're not swimming when they're going fast they're running on the bottom of the water floating is is swimming floating but they're not sweat they're not actively I'm pretty sure they run on the water I could be just so bad about all my hippo facts I'm pretty sure that they run on the bottom of the water. Oh, they said hippos

39:57Big Cat:can't swim the way that most animals do. They're too dense and cannot float. There we go. They don't even float.

40:03PFT Commenter:They walk or run along the bottom of the... Alright, I'm back. I'm one for two in hippo facts.

40:08Big Cat:Damn, so Fiona can't swim?

40:10PFT Commenter:No. They just kind of like bounce on the ground on the bottom.

40:14Big Cat:Are you more scared of Fiona than she is of you?

40:18PFT Commenter:No, Fiona's I'm not scared of Fiona. Fiona's darling. Alright, I feel back. I got a rubber match coming up with hippo facts. And I don't know where I'm going to go with it. Pablo Escobar had hippos. How strong is their jaw? What'd that mouth do? Extra strong.

40:35Big Cat:One and a half tons of force.

40:37PFT Commenter:That's extra strong. That's a lot. So there we go. I won the rubber match.

40:39Big Cat:How fast can they run?

40:41PFT Commenter:Up to. 25 miles an hour. 30. 20. Oh, okay. Slow. I feel like I've won this. Against myself. That was your cool throne? That was my cool throne. Basement, spider free. All right. My hot seat is reporters of the New England Patriots because Vrabel is back and it's no longer the Jared Mayo. Did you guys see this clip of Vrabel? Can you pull it up, Max? I sent it to you. I DMed it to you. He's a boss. He's just going to be a boss. Yeah, the bottom one. Bottom one. Nope, that's Titans. Vrabel. There you go. This is Vrabel talking to reporters today.

41:50PFT Commenter:through it but i'd rather not yeah i won't know it's that's a tone set uh-huh that's a tone set

41:57Big Cat:that's a man that has teenage sons at home yeah he's had that same conversation type it on your phone or tweet and that's where it hurts yeah also can we just take a second to acknowledge what a great question it was though yeah like the guys that are here how how do they all look how

42:12PFT Commenter:do they look that's a great question yeah you want to know yeah uh and then my cool throne is uh 31 teams in the NFL because the Titans have kind of said they're probably not going to win the Super Bowl this year. This also happened today at the press conference. I think it was to their GM and coach, if you want to pull that one up, Max, when they asked them if they could win the Super Bowl this year.

42:32Big Cat:I mean, that's a fucked up question. Simple question. The team you put on the field tomorrow, can that team win the Super Bowl?

42:44PFT Commenter:That's always the goal every year. We also realize we have a lot of work to do. That one stunned them. That one stunned them. They just were like, you could even see. That's not Callahan. So who's the, it must be their front office. Just kind of like he like giggled at it.

42:58Big Cat:Yeah, that's a mean question. It is a mean question to Titans. Because he knows, he's got two stories and he's deciding which button to press. If you answer it like we have a lot of work to do, then your story is Titans don't plan on being competitive. Right. If they say yes, then you say Titans are delusional.

43:15PFT Commenter:Right, right. It's an unfair question. That's a tough one. Oh, by the way, Jamal Adams is signing with the Raiders.

43:22Big Cat:Blitz boy. He's still around. Yeah. He's going to look awesome in a Ravens uniform, and somehow it's going to work out. Shout out to Honey Badger retiring today. Jimmy Graham also retiring today. Phillip Rivers retired yesterday.

43:35PFT Commenter:That was crazy.

43:36Big Cat:Yeah. How is he not already retired? I don't know.

43:39PFT Commenter:Hasn't he been coaching football for two years? So we just had a rash of retirements, some legends of the game. It did make me miss Phillip Rivers. I watched that video. Yeah. It also made me miss having the Chargers in San Diego. They should never have left. That sucked. Agreed. There was something about it.

43:56Big Cat:They just felt unique. They should have taken the stadium for the Rams and the Chargers and built it halfway between in Temecula.

44:04PFT Commenter:Yeah.

44:05Big Cat:That would have made everybody happy. Long Beach.

44:07PFT Commenter:Don't know if that's right. Is that right-ish? Kind of. Okay. Why are you shaking your head, Max?

44:11Big Cat:Long Beach is definitely closer to LA than San Diego.

44:13PFT Commenter:Yeah, but it's kind of halfway in the middle.

44:15Big Cat:Sydney and LA are close, though.

44:16PFT Commenter:Yeah, Sydney and LA are very close. You want to fact check me? You can rollerblade there. Yeah. Easily. Give it to me, Max. You just searched California map.

44:30Big Cat:No, I am very right here.

44:32PFT Commenter:Okay, okay, but also it's on the way.

44:35Big Cat:It's on the way. Where's Temecula? Yeah, zoom in. Temecula is pretty close to halfway, I think. Temecula is also in, though. Yeah, Temecula is right in the middle of that. No, you'd want to go. Traffic. What?

44:47PFT Commenter:You didn't think about traffic. What about traffic? Long Beach is like in LA. It's ish. We have a traffic. What's that town with the D right there in the middle? That's where they need to build it. What about Oceanside? That sounds like a good. Oh, it's Oceanside. Okay. Yeah, there it is. That sounds like a good spot. That's a perfect spot. We're learning new stuff. Building a lot of stuff. There's a whole lot of nothing right here. Yeah, I think that's mountains. Oh. That'd be cool, though. on a stadium on a mountain. Yeah. All right, Zach, hot seat cool throw?

45:19Big Cat:Yes, sir, I do have a quick hot seat cool throw for you. So my hot seat today is going to be Stable Ronaldo. He's a Twitch streamer, also part of the FaZe Clan. Yeah. So he has locked himself in a padded room, like a white padded room. Doesn't know what time it is until he completes

45:34PFT Commenter:Elden Ring the video game. Are you guys familiar with Elden Ring the video game? I am not. I recognize the name. I've never played it or watched it. Okay, so Elder Ring is an open-world RPG game.

45:47Big Cat:There's a couple different builds you can pick from, different weapons you equip, and you go out and you have to defeat these bosses, right, to get to the endgame. It took him roughly seven hours and 165 attempts to defeat the first boss, Morgat. And since he is in this padded room, I've got him in the hot seat because I'm a little worried he's going to go insane. It's in isolation except for the game. Yes. Does he have food? Food. There's a bathroom in there. He also doesn't know what time it is, and he lost track of time super early on, like hour two or three. So if he continues this track of like eight hours per boss, there's 13 mandatory bosses to beat the game, but Morgan's one of the easiest bosses.

46:27Big Cat:So 165 attempts on the first boss. He's setting a pace for maybe insanity. Yeah, so what's the math on that? You said 13 bosses? 13 mandatory ones. 13 mandatory bosses. He's going to be in there for like a week. Hopefully not, but it could be a week. Yeah, definitely. It could be longer. Yeah, he might go insane. There's a chance. It's a good idea, though. Is this different than Skyrim? Yeah. Yes. What's that? Isn't that like Elder Ring? It's similar. Skyrim was... I put some Skyrim. Yeah, no, that's why. Oh, Elder Scrolls. Sorry, sorry. That was a stupid question. I apologize Zach Oh no worries Max Alright That's who I got in the hot seat I do have a cool throne as well My cool throne goes to the creators of South Park Because they struck a deal with Paramount For 1.5 billion dollars over the next 5 years Good for them You guys into South Park?

47:24Big Cat:Yeah Trey and Matt Legends of the game I actually think somebody tweeted Basketball at me For best bad movie I would agree that's a very funny movie good movie though yeah good movie I liked it fair yeah so they got they got fucking paid huh five years they gotta do ten new episodes a year and then streaming rights to Paramount that's nothing that's so easy I think it's awesome 1.5 insane payout good for them super cool thrown there that's pretty awesome still very funny we gotta sell like

47:58PFT Commenter:our bitcoin

47:58Big Cat:our podcast we need like yeah that's a good idea well no like We need, what do you call them? Residuals. Yeah. So we air the old podcast reruns. Yeah. And we get paid off those. They're getting paid for not really new episodes, just having their old episodes on Paramount. Yeah, that's a good idea, Hank. If you want to Spotify, you want to go back and listen to them, I actually think we still might kind of in a roundabout way get paid off that. Yeah, we should. Because they total up all the listens that we've had after a certain amount of time.

48:32PFT Commenter:Yeah.

48:32Big Cat:But yeah, reruns of the podcast game. That's a game changer.

48:36PFT Commenter:We got it. Maybe reruns of the podcast game with our commentary on top. Yeah. Or what if we did like a, basically like took all of our stories and put it into like something and people could read it? Nah. That would never work. What if we did a summer vacation and we just did reruns while we were on vacation? Yeah, I bet you would like that vacation, boy. We should do that. Yeah, Hank would love that. Hank would just be like, no, don't worry. The numbers are fine. People like listening to March Madness 2019 in the middle of August.

49:14Big Cat:Yeah, but think about how happy they would be when football is back, and so are we. That's true.

49:21PFT Commenter:Yeah, but we're part of people's everyday lives.

49:24Big Cat:Yeah, but summer, people want to take – it gives them time to take off too.

49:27PFT Commenter:We're thinking about them.

49:29Big Cat:No, I think that you could go back and think of the best episode ever. A lot of listeners have never listened to that episode. Yeah, okay.

49:37PFT Commenter:And then what about the other 30 episode days in the summer? Go back to the vault. Yeah, that's a big vault. Open the vault up. You're not thinking about the vault. I think we're doing just fine. What if you just re-record every podcast episode like Taylor Swift? Yes, that's Matt, our ghost writer. There you go. That's a good idea, Matt. every single one. I like that. That's not a bad idea. I like that. Especially the one where we talked about Taylor Swift. Yeah. Then we get all the money. Yeah. Okay. Let's do our Mount Rushmore.

Mount Rushmore of Basic Girl Instagram Captions Hank has been wanting to do this Mount Rushmore for Years? A long time

51:57Big Cat:Years. Well I've thrown it out it's kind of like a running Like internal maybe just an inside joke With myself where like people will In the group text throw out You know we need Mount Rushmore suggestions and I would say This and then it would just get ignored Yeah it's been You didn't feel seen? No, it was more just like, how many times will I say this before someone at least acknowledges that? Just no or say no. It's been a passion project for you. It's been something you've been very, very interested in for a long time. And as I realized Instagram for the captions, he doesn't even look at the picture.

52:27Big Cat:Right. And then as I realized, I was making this list. I was like, maybe this won't be the best Mount Rushmore, but that's all right.

52:32PFT Commenter:Okay. I think it's gonna be good. We also should note that you could easily do the Mount Rushmore basic guy Instagram captions, and it would be a lot of our captions of football is back. Can't wait for football.

52:44Big Cat:Maybe we will. Maybe we'll do. I love James Winston.

52:47PFT Commenter:That's the over.

52:48Big Cat:Worst, best movies, and basic guy Instagram captions. Yeah.

52:52PFT Commenter:Someone give me a bet. These are all of our captions. All right. We ready to go? Who's up first? We are up first. Oh, a lot of pressure. Con Air. Con Air.

53:07Big Cat:Do you want to talk about the Con Air pick? Con Air is a great movie. I agree. I like Con Air a lot. It didn't really play well with the rest of the selections that were out there. I understand the criticism behind Con Air. I got to look in the mirror. It's a really good movie. I'm going to do the thing that a coach does when he's just got a shitty, abysmal team. It starts with me. I got to take a long look in the mirror. It starts and it ends with me. I love the whole team. And Hank, especially. I was going to say, it doesn't matter whose pick it was and who wanted to choose it. I was the one that said it.

53:37Big Cat:And as the person who was the captain of the day, I needed to make the right choice, and I didn't. Man in the arena. Man in the arena. So we're in last place now? Dead last. Big Cat and Zach were crying after two Mount Rushmore. No, we weren't.

53:52PFT Commenter:I actually told Zach. We got to regroup. We got to figure it out. We did. We had a bad start. We didn't get our first one. Do you still want to do the solo one soon? Yeah, we can. Zach and I, we had a meeting where we were like, we're fumbling this, and we got to stay strong. Don't break.

54:06Big Cat:Stay strong, don't break. It's still anybody's game. Zach also does this thing where he goes around and just asks everybody what they're thinking. He's like, oh, I'm so likable. What's your pick?

54:15PFT Commenter:Oh, wow, memes. Listen, I didn't know when memes was going to turn on Zach, but it's happening. Wait, other people in the office?

54:25Big Cat:No, no. I just outwardly just bounce things off. I just hear ideas. I don't take any of them down. I would like to note if we're just airing things out. Back to memes, we're in the kitchens for the movies draft with two of our very notable known movie guys. so who's that just two dudes i know that know movies a lot not sure who they were but i just i heard them know a lot of movies who two dudes that you know that know movies oh shane and jack two certified movie guys yeah i'm not okay that doesn't count well they are certified bad movie guys just glad we're all uh here rushmore yeah so memes you've turned on zach no no no i think

55:02PFT Commenter:he's just playing like the oh I don't know anything. Oh yeah he's rattling off. He's turned on Zach.

55:07Big Cat:Memes turns on everyone Zach don't worry he hates all of our guts. It sounds like Zach is also kind of turned on Max. I didn't say a thing. No. I didn't think Max said anything either. Is it booth in crisis? PFT just made that up out of nowhere. Zach's like you guys were getting tips. That I mean.

55:24PFT Commenter:Can I tell can I maybe bring bring a story that will bring us back together when When Zach and I were meeting to do this Mount Rushmore, we were looking, doing some research on Instagram. And then I just hear Zach say, oops. And I said, what happened? He said, I just liked a picture from 2022. I was like, well, you got to keep that like.

55:48Big Cat:Who was it? It was a hot chick. It was a bad look. Unfortunately. Was it like a hot chick you know or like a hot chick with a bunch of followers? That's the issue. Hot chick I know. Oh, that's so much worse because she'll see it. It's just like a celebrity. Who cares? That's tough. Tough start to the day. But maybe, I mean, you know, now you're now you're rising star. Maybe that's like high demand spark. She needs.

56:10PFT Commenter:Yeah. Yeah. That was I mean, she yeah. She comes back to her Instagram. She's like, oh, Zach.

56:16Big Cat:I do like.

56:16PFT Commenter:Oh, and he's also like he's known now and now he's he's he's revisiting 2022. Was she thought she missed her chance with you? Zach, I have one very important question for you.

56:27Big Cat:Yes, sir. this person that you liked their instagram from 2022 how old is this person uh 26 okay

56:37PFT Commenter:because that could have gotten dangerous what do you mean if the person was 21 and he liked a picture from 2022 oh yeah that's that's that's horrendous yeah that could have been a bad 26

56:47Big Cat:year old that's a fair confirmed i can get a birth date if we need to do that yeah i trust like to see the certificate it is funny that you can trace like every beef on part of my take has its genesis somewhere in Mount Rushmore. Oh, yeah.

56:59PFT Commenter:Oh, yeah. The death of this podcast will happen during Mount Rushmore season. That is a fact. Either that or – well, actually, no, because if Yelich wins a home run derby, it will be during Mount Rushmore season. We should get the – what's the doomsday clock? We need a doomsday clock for part of my take. We just need like a – Does it get closer? Right now, we're at like –

57:19Big Cat:We need a clock center. Yeah, we do need a clock center. So number of hours until football starts. The Ryan Russillo clock. The Ryan Russillo clock. We're going to need, yeah, the Doomsday clock, which is set back to like 1115 right now. We're nowhere close to. No, we're in a good spot.

57:36PFT Commenter:Yeah. Except for memes. Or maybe there's just a clock of last time memes thought about murdering someone on this show. And it's just always at zero days. Yeah. That works. Okay. Let's do the Mount Rushmore. Good preamble, guys. All right. First. Memes hate Zach.

57:51Big Cat:First pick.

57:52PFT Commenter:No, no. I like him. You guys just did the, oh, we stink at this, and then just rattled off three. Yeah, we had a come-to-Jesus moment where we got strong. Didn't break. All right, 1-1. I did a thing. Yeah. Okay. Had it on our list. Had it on our list. That could mean so many different things.

58:09Big Cat:Yep. Yeah. The engagement ring is obviously the big one, but then, you know, the first people buy a house, you know, buy a new car. It's always I did a thing. A baby. A baby. Do they do it for? I don't think they do it for a baby. They definitely don't do it for a baby. They do it for a baby? Sure. Yeah, I did a thing. That's why I did a thing is a hilariously broad basic girl. Yeah, I did a thing is great.

58:30PFT Commenter:I think it's funnier if the guy does I did a thing for a baby. Like when they do get their hair.

58:34Big Cat:Yeah. Get a new haircut. I did a thing. Get a tattoo. Yep. Tattoo also plays. Yep. All right. Good. Hey, great pick, memes. Good pick. Good one. One. We got our one. One PFT. This us? Right. Yeah. My heart is full. Just heart is full. Heart is full. Heart is full. Heart is full. Could be anything. Okay. Could just be, yeah. Be a baby. My heart is full. Picture of their friends. It was on our list. Picture of their family. Yep.

59:02PFT Commenter:Yep.

59:02Big Cat:Just a picture of the beach. Mm-hmm. Picture of a drink. A thirst trap.

59:07PFT Commenter:Yep. Good one. Good one. Had it on there. Zach, I think they're going to go three and seven.

59:16Big Cat:I think three and seven are great picks.

59:17PFT Commenter:Yeah, they kind of go together, too. All right. So our first pick is going to be in my blank era. So any era where they've just decided they're in a new era. Could be like a fashion choice, city, whatever. They're just in their era.

59:33Big Cat:What era are you currently in?

59:36PFT Commenter:In my tired era, I would say. There's always tired. I think that's probably right. You're in your golf era.

59:44Big Cat:I'm in my golf era for sure. You're in your golf era. I'm in my work era.

59:47PFT Commenter:What? No, you aren't.

59:49Big Cat:I think I'm in my summer era. On my children era.

59:53PFT Commenter:Yeah. What? Oh, because of golf. Memes, what era are you in? In my I Hate Zach era?

1:00:00Big Cat:No, I love Zach. Yeah, Memes' eras are just different people that he hates in this show.

1:00:07PFT Commenter:Okay. That is a good thing. Chase Utley's coming up on you. Yeah. You'll do that, too. Yeah, you will. And then any Taylor Swift lyric is our next pick. Just any Taylor Swift lyric. Just throw it on there.

1:00:17Big Cat:Look what you made me do.

1:00:18PFT Commenter:Yeah, just literally any Taylor Swift lyric. And that can fit to any mood, anything they're doing at any time.

1:00:25Big Cat:Shade never made anyone less gay.

1:00:27PFT Commenter:You didn't like that pick, Hank? That was a good pick. Oh, okay.

1:00:31Big Cat:What? I didn't say anything.

1:00:33PFT Commenter:You went like this.

1:00:36Big Cat:Sometimes I just hope Max starts fighting. I'm not going to. Well, no, it's interesting. It's broad. Big Cat's definitely the biggest Taylor Swift fan on this podcast. Easily. Documented. easily and to go back to back bonafide swifty double dipping bonafide swifty it's broad but that's fine alright I didn't object okay they're called women Hank

1:01:03Big Cat:is that us again it's you okay yeah well yeah that's pretty much Hank like Hank Hank is this Hank's yeah this is Hank's listen I hate it when you guys fucking do this every fucking time No one ever has suggestions for Mount Rushmore's No one, we need Mount Rushmore's I throw out a suggestion Then we choose it and you're like, this is Hank's Hank, Hank, Hank I just said that it was your turn Maybe someone else should suggest a Mount Rushmore Maybe then it won't be me You guys don't do anything All I did was say it was your turn You don't do anything Do we want Hank to work or do we not want Hank to work We need to make up our mind We just got accused of not doing anything Alright, so we're going to go actually i'm in my not doing anything era hank this one is mine this was my contribution to the list yeah yeah it's a team this is his mount rushmore it's his mount rushmore everything is rspfd i didn't say you pick con air i said i did but that you i said what do you want one one you said con air i want a kangaroo jack that doesn't matter though i think that's not true i did all right our second pick is felt cute might delete later yep yep never gets deleted yep zero percent deletion rate on a mic delete always always always good pick thanks good pick pft and i i i feel like that's more of like a cliche of a caption than like an actual caption no it's an actual caption is it how does something become a cliche good question but like they're mocking yeah yeah they're not actually captioning that they're now mocking correct that's kind of like people used there's another one that i also have in that vein that i'm that I'll save for honorable mentions.

1:02:41Big Cat:But that would be on the Mount Rushmore. It's a Mount Rushmore. Is George Washington still alive, Max? Is Thomas Jefferson still alive? It's a cliche of George Washington. Yeah, I just feel like it's more of a meme than it is like a – like no girls will do that in this era. In this day and age? In this era? You're wrong. Unless it's like an actually disgusting picture and they're like felt cute and might delete later as a joke. It would be the most basic caption. That sounds like someone spent more time thinking about this than I have. Well, no, you've... Are we not supposed to think about Mount Rushmore?

1:03:19Big Cat:Also, Max... Well, no, you guys are giving me a shiver of this caption, but Max, I like Max's breaking it down nicely. Yeah. It's a good topic.

1:03:27PFT Commenter:Yeah.

1:03:27Big Cat:Yeah, no, I am. It's a good topic. It's a great topic, Hank. I'm adding to the Rushmore.

1:03:32PFT Commenter:But no one's thought about this as much as you. You've been thinking about it for years.

1:03:35Big Cat:I've always thought this would be a good Mount Rushmore. Okay. Okay, I'm going to go with our next one. Mentally, I am here.

1:03:42PFT Commenter:Ooh, like that.

1:03:43Big Cat:That's just like if it's not summer, it's just like an excuse for girls to post bikini pictures because it's like I really wish that I was in the Caribbean in December. So here's the bikini picture. And the next one we are going to do is Life Lately. Nice. that's just a dump of whatever they're doing at the moment. Yep. Yep. All right. Good picks. This is, we're back to Hank again, right? Yeah. Okay. See the one I have highlighted one. You guys have a live. I don't, I don't see the one you have highlighted.

1:04:22PFT Commenter:Do you need a timeout? No.

1:04:25Big Cat:I mean, his PFT is, you want to tell me where on the list of this?

1:04:33Big Cat:Just rip it. It's going to involve some counting. Hey, grip it. No, it's PFT's ball. Which rip? Hey, which one are you highlighting? 12. Oh, God.

1:04:50He's counting.

1:04:51PFT Commenter:This is Mike Princesa.

1:04:52Big Cat:The one that starts with the letter B? Yeah. That one doesn't even really work, though. You don't know what it is? I don't know. It took me a second. Rip it! You looked at me. Do it. You know what I felt like right there? It's like when Max was at the Eagles game and somebody said, Oh, shit, they score here. I'm ahead on my phone. Max, you believed it for a second. What else do you think? Okay. Trust yourself. On the bottom list, Hank, I like number four. Trust yourself. I like number three. You guys got to trust yourself. Okay, we're going to trust yourself. All right, yeah. Go for it. I'm going to go with Hank.

1:05:27PFT Commenter:All right, do it.

1:05:28Big Cat:Booked and busy. Ooh. Booked and busy. Okay. I know what that means, but Hank, why don't you explain what that means? That's just like if they're on vacation. All these are basically just ways for girls to post thirst traps or bikini pictures. Correct. It would be this girl on a beach. And just say booked and busy. Yeah. But she's just on vacation.

1:05:49PFT Commenter:Yep. All right. Zach, I feel strong about our last... Stay strong. Don't break. I think we go pretty easy four and nine. I like four and nine. Do you like those two?

1:06:01Big Cat:Do you like nine over 11? Yeah.

1:06:04PFT Commenter:I don't really... Yeah. Okay. We'll go nine. Yeah. All right. So similar to the vacation one, they'll just do like a picture at a beach or something and say never leaving this place. when you're on vacation you literally are going to leave this and how does that look on a how do

1:06:20Big Cat:you want that to be described on a graphic never leaving this place okay yeah yeah uh i guess we

1:06:26PFT Commenter:could do parentheses vacation now yeah never leaving this place never leaving this place and then an old classic uh one that i think is still around about last night and it's just a bunch of pictures of like an awesome party or something and it's just like this is the coolest

1:06:42Big Cat:night ever about last night that plays they usually have like dot dot yeah after not even three dots just dot dot yeah hank and i are we're in a fight right now hey it's your ball i feel

1:06:55PFT Commenter:i feel like we stayed strong i feel good about this one hank feels very strongly about his

1:07:04PFT Commenter:i'm gonna go with what hank said xoxo

1:07:11Big Cat:XO. XOXO. Yeah. Hugs and kisses. That's just like when you don't have anything to put it for a caption. Yeah. Again, it's just like they have a hot picture themselves. They don't actually care what the caption is. They just want to post a hot picture.

1:07:30PFT Commenter:Okay, last pick.

1:07:31Big Cat:Should I say it? Good pick. Okay, so last one we did mentally I'm here. So that's when you're outside of vacation hours, when you're inside of vacation hours, just out of office. And it just shows you on your nice vacation.

1:07:47PFT Commenter:Yep. How do you want that to look on the graphic?

1:07:49Big Cat:Out of office.

1:07:50PFT Commenter:Okay. Great. Did no one pick living my best life or was that an early pick? No one picked that. That's a big one. That's a big one.

1:07:57Big Cat:But I also think that's in the... Cliche. Cliche. So the one that I was thinking of as also in cliche is like hot dogs are legs. Yeah. Like it's not – it has become so much of a joke that it's not actually a basic girl Instagram caption.

1:08:15PFT Commenter:One that we threw out there based on our research, Zach liking that picture 2022. Would you guys have accepted no caption? Because I think that's getting hot now. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1:08:25Big Cat:Oh. Well, no, we were going to do – We had no caption. We had no caption necessary. We had that one too. Yeah.

1:08:32PFT Commenter:There also is like the trend of just literally no caption. Yeah. Power move. Just posting your hottest pictures with no caption. Or just like an emoji, like a flower emoji. We also thought about doing just emojis.

1:08:44Big Cat:The stars one. Yeah. Like witchy stars. Yeah. We had the hand heart. Yeah. That was it. Do not disturb. Yeah. Some of the ones we missed. Do not disturb is a good one.

1:08:54PFT Commenter:The city, airplane emoji city with vacation pics. That's more of like a bio.

1:09:00Big Cat:Yeah. Like you put that, I'm kind of bi-coastal. Or Red Pin City.

1:09:04PFT Commenter:Yeah. Like Red Pin, Ibiza. That's a big one. That's tough to.

1:09:08Big Cat:Yeah, because it's got to be the city. Although I did, I threw out just Miami mode.

1:09:15PFT Commenter:Yeah.

1:09:15Big Cat:Every girl goes to Miami at some point. Here's another one. Euro Dump. Yeah. Euro Dump. We had Q2 Dump.

1:09:21PFT Commenter:Dump.

1:09:21Big Cat:Q2 Dump.

1:09:22PFT Commenter:That's a good one.

1:09:24Big Cat:Blank. Blank. Blank. That's a Q2 Dump. That's Big Cat interviewing Trevor Lawrence.

1:09:32PFT Commenter:I should start posting my Q2 dump would be bad.

1:09:35Big Cat:Q2 dump of just all your shits that you took in the past quarter would be hilarious. You do Euro dump, but it's spelled G-Y-R-O.

1:09:43PFT Commenter:If I ever go to Ibiza, I will do a Ibiza dump with a red pin. It will just be my shits.

1:09:52Big Cat:The one that I really liked that Hank talked me out of was new hair, who this? Long hair, don't care. Long hair, don't care. Yeah. I think that again is in my category. I kind of agree.

1:10:04PFT Commenter:What about A Moment for the Dress whenever they get really fancy?

1:10:07Big Cat:Yep. That's a good one. A Moment for the Dress is a really good one. Yep. What about Sip Sangria and Repeat?

1:10:14PFT Commenter:Ooh, I like that.

1:10:17Big Cat:I can't say I've ever seen that one. That was real research. This is a big...

1:10:21PFT Commenter:I have some real research. There's a big one for summertime because like country concerts, so it's just Blank Girl with a country twist. so it's like Chicago girl with a country twist they literally just went and stood in a parking lot at the United Center they got boots though

1:10:36Big Cat:gangs all here

1:10:38PFT Commenter:a theme you say bet I didn't really understand that one twin flame for their best friend yep

1:10:59Big Cat:D &D. Hot Girl Summer. What's D &D? That was Do Not Disturb. Okay. Real Hot Girl shit? Real Hot Girl shit, I like that. Booked and Busy. Booked and Busy? You picked that. We took Booked and Busy. You specifically asked me to take Booked and Busy. I'm reading our list. Booked and Busy, I've never seen. I didn't... You didn't want to get contentious on that? I didn't want to yell at you because we were kind of in a contentious mode there. That was a terrible pick.

1:11:26PFT Commenter:my happy place my happy place is good yep uh catching flights not feelings did we do that i don't know if that's a cliche one yeah hank just he smirked forever that girl yep uh chasing sunsets did we do that one i think that's a thing that girls do

1:11:52Big Cat:I really like sushi Sunday I think also

1:11:56PFT Commenter:Sushi Sunday Well I think Hank and I might have done some research From the same book

1:12:02Big Cat:I mean search booked and busy on Instagram I'm just saying Basic after basic After basic after basic Listen You're the expert in this topic No It's a group topic What about the nights we'll never remember And the friends we won't forget

1:12:21PFT Commenter:That's kind of like a guy one, I think.

1:12:22Big Cat:Is it?

1:12:23PFT Commenter:Yeah. I was trying to think of one, but it doesn't really work. Do we add emojis to our captions? No.

1:12:29Big Cat:No? Yeah, too late. But I want to know what emoji, what are you specifically? A book. The nails. And a bee. Oh, the nails getting polished. Nails, stars also. Yeah. Three. I don't know.

1:12:41PFT Commenter:I was trying to think of how to describe this one, but one that I see every now and then is like a pregnancy announcement, but it's just the dog being like, like Otis is going to be a big brother. Yeah. That's how they announce it.

1:12:58Big Cat:Yeah.

1:12:58PFT Commenter:Like, well, he's not a human. We also had. He's also pissed. Yeah.

1:13:02Big Cat:We had a take me back, but it seemed I thought it was too similar to mentally. I'm here.

1:13:08PFT Commenter:Yeah. Take me back. That's also kind of. Yeah.

1:13:10Big Cat:It's just a girl who was in the winter and wants to post and feels like post and, you know, some hot pictures.

1:13:37Big Cat:hank is is probably the subject matter expert on this so you guys are a little bit behind hank You might not be up on book. What the fuck are you talking about? We all have Instagram. No, I'm saying, but you obviously know more about it than most of us. Why? I'm trying to compliment you. How? How? How? How? How? I don't understand this. Booked and busy is a good pick. You're booked. You're busy. You guys are just fighting with each other. You're on the same team. I'm trying to gasp my boy up. I don't know who's side to take I was trying to get Big Cat's attention I was like look at them I'm trying to gas you up I'm paying you a compliment You're slamming the brakes Do you have Instagram?

1:14:24Big Cat:I do have Instagram You guys have Instagram? Confirmed We're all equally as qualified

1:14:31PFT Commenter:A subtle slay

1:14:33Big Cat:That's a good pick

1:14:36PFT Commenter:Would you say this whole thing was a subtle slay? Big Sly. It's a big Sly? I think this is great Mount Rushmore. This is a very good Mount Rushmore.

1:14:45Big Cat:I think basic bro Instagrams would work, too. Yeah.

1:14:49PFT Commenter:Yeah. Dudes Rock. Dudes Rock is a great Mount Rushmore. Yeah. Yeah. Real men of genius for anything a dude does. Football guy. Oh, a dude's on his lawnmower? Dudes Rock. He's on a lawnmower drinking a beer? Dudes Rock. Oh, a guy's drinking with his buddies in the backyard? Dudes Rock. It goes for everything. That might just be the Mount Rushmore.

1:15:13Big Cat:Whoever gets the first pick just wins. Vegas wasn't ready. The Mount Rushmore of dudes rocking moments. Good one. Like throughout history. Wasn't ready is actually a good one. The big T clip of talking about wasn't ready is so funny.

1:15:29PFT Commenter:X is not ready. Vegas is not ready. Yes. Yes, it is. Vegas has seen 19 year old sorority girls before they are prepared. They're absolutely ready. Nashville. Definitely ready for your bachelorette party. I promise it will be the same when you leave as when you got there. Is there a part of you, Hank, though? Like you've been wanting to do this Mount Rushmore for so long. Now that we've done it, it's like over. Is there a part of you that's going to be like, well, what do I have to look forward to now? Yeah, I can retire.

1:16:07Big Cat:Yeah.

1:16:08PFT Commenter:Oh. Are you announcing your retirement?

1:16:10Big Cat:I've been working on getting this done. No, I just - You guys haven't been doing anything. In the future, Hank is going to be thinking, mentally, I'm here.

1:16:17PFT Commenter:At the Mount Rushmore of Instagram caption draft.

1:16:20Big Cat:Memes is now saying that we should do a Mount Rushmore of dudes rock moment. Well, that's what PFT said. Yeah, yeah. I just started - Oh, good idea, Memes. Yeah. That's a great idea. Okay. I started -

1:16:37PFT Commenter:Yep. Good Mount Rushmore. Did you feel good, Hank? I feel great. I feel like that was good.

1:16:43Big Cat:I feel like we haven't had one where we got it. It was a really good idea. I feel like, yeah, I feel like I'm justified. Good producing. In trying, yeah. Yeah, really good producing. That was a good Mount Rushmore.

1:16:52PFT Commenter:Do you think you have another good Mount Rushmore in you, or is it just back to next mini golf?

1:16:59Big Cat:Don't get him fired up. Don't get him fired up. I'll let you pick the next one. Zach, what are your thoughts on Hank's draft? I think the draft went well. I think it was a good topic. Everybody came with captions. Good captions, boys. Who do you think, if you were to do the... Don't answer this. The Wozniak. Steve Korsaki. That's Max's job. Who would you say won? There's no way to know. There is no way to know. Smart guy. He's a really smart guy.

1:19:07PFT Commenter:Okay, we now welcome on a very, very, very, very special guest. He is a World Series champion. It is Chase Utley. Chase, thank you for coming by. First question is maybe a stupid question, but I'm going to throw it out there anyway. What's cooler, winning a World Series or having the nickname The Man? Because having the nickname The Man seems like the coolest thing. First of all, thanks for having me on the show. I'm in a beautiful setting here. To answer your question, I mean, you can't go wrong with winning a World Series. Obviously, Harry Callis gave me a great nickname that will kind of follow me forever.

1:19:45But winning a World Series team championship, it doesn't get any better than that.

1:19:50Big Cat:Yeah. If you're the man, you're the only man. yeah the man fair we had a lot of men a lot of men but yes five of them yeah who were some of the other men that you played with uh well you had shane victorino on here i would imagine he was he was chatting it up quite a bit yeah might actually be a dude i think yeah he's a dude he's a dude uh ryan howard big dude that's a man uh jimmy ron's little dude um we had some good pap burrell jason worth yeah there's a lot of a lot of amazing players we had jim tomey jim tomey early in my career he was actually my favorite player growing up really yeah so i remember in spring training they put my locker right next to him which i was kind of in awe i thought it was pretty amazing a guy that i emulated as a as a kid in my childhood wanted to hit like him not quite the same but i i tried and then to share a share locker next to him was pretty special was it how

1:20:40PFT Commenter:intimidating was it when you got called up and you're like oh shit this is he's the strongest guy ever yeah have you met him no yeah but you're right he's huge forearms huge hands just extremely strong he but he's like he's a sweetheart right so he welcomes you into his into his family right away um so it eases the tension a little bit so i was yes in awe but uh he made me feel comfortable

1:21:02Big Cat:yeah you guys still keep in touch the uh the world series team yeah yeah we do we played golf last summer and um out in the uk yeah we have a we have a chat group that we talk a little all right a smack back and forth. So you, do you live in the UK full-time? We did. So we just, you just moved back. We were in the UK for three years in London to be precise.

1:21:23PFT Commenter:Okay. So what were you doing? You were the baseball ambassador to Europe, to Europe. Correct. What does that entail? Great question. Um, have you spent much time in, in Europe? No, I've been once. Yeah. Baseball isn't a huge sport in Europe. So, um, one, it was a family adventure that my wife and I wanted to go on and two, have the ability to promote the sport that I love. So essentially promoting baseball. There's been some games in London the past several years which were huge successes. So just promote it, get it on everyone's radar. You have soccer slash it's really football is what they call it.

1:22:00Soccer. It's a huge sport there. So it's hard to kind of get inside of that sport, but we're working on it.

1:22:07Big Cat:Are you trying to steal some of the market share away from cricket? I mean, ideally that would be great. I mean, cricket is a huge sport as well, huge in all around the world, India to be precise. But, yeah, it's a very traditional sport in the U.K. It's like baseball it is to the United States, America's pastime. So just trying to just kind of infiltrate a little bit and get baseball on people's radars.

1:22:31PFT Commenter:Was part of your job teaching Europeans how to throw? Because Europeans throwing is so funny. You just forget they don't throw. Like they don't throw. You're right, they don't throw. If you kick them a ball, they'll be able to juggle it when like a two-year-old will be able to have like the foot control of Messi. But if they try to throw a baseball, they look like the dumbest people. Yeah, yeah. Their skill set with their feet is pretty spectacular. But you're right. Their throwing aspect is not necessarily there. So I was a coach for my son's middle school baseball team. And of the 17 kids that played, there were probably four or five that had played organized baseball before.

1:23:06Kind of knew what was going on. And there were a few that had maybe played with their dads in the past, and there were a handful that had never touched a baseball in their life. So that was an interesting conversation of trying to get them to understand, like, body awareness and how to hold the ball.

1:23:19PFT Commenter:Right. I try to keep it easy for them. But, yeah, the throwing motion is not a natural thing. Did your son dominate? Yeah, he was pretty good. I'm not sure he would be as good in the States. Yeah. Yeah, over there, yeah. But that might be like a parenting hack right there. Like, I have three kids. I might just move them to England for three years so they can dominate in baseball and like football. Fantastic idea. Get the confidence up. Come back. Maybe it doesn't go so well here, but at least you had those years, those glory days.

1:23:49Big Cat:Yeah, yeah. I like that. I worked with Ashton Jinty, right? He played football over in Germany for like the first, I want to say like 15 or 16 years of his life. Then he came back over and he was like, I'm the man.

1:23:58PFT Commenter:Yeah.

1:23:59Big Cat:And he just kept being the man.

1:24:00PFT Commenter:Yeah.

1:24:01Big Cat:Much like you. Yeah. The man. I love it. You guys are good.

1:24:04PFT Commenter:Was there an age when you realized that you were going to be the man? Like when was baseball like, oh, this is actually a future? Probably not until high school, to be honest. I played a bunch of different sports growing up, like majority of my friends did. Majority of guys that my generation did. Played a bunch of basketball, played baseball, played soccer. We played, you know, street hockey. We played it all. Probably in high school is when I probably started separating myself a bit from my peers on the baseball field. I was a little guy, and I started to grow a bit in high school, and that's kind of when I started to actually this could be an opportunity.

1:24:41PFT Commenter:Yeah, and so you got drafted by the Dodgers, your hometown team, and then you're like, no, I'm going to go to UCLA. Was that a hard decision? It was a hard decision. Yeah, I was drafted in the second round, so like pretty high up there. And, you know, I had my dad negotiate with the Dodgers, and we got to a point where it was getting close. It made some sense. I said, all right, well, I'm going to go down with my high school buddies on our senior trip down to Cabo San Lucas and when we come back, we'll finalize everything. Went down there for a week with a bunch of my buddies and then just kind of slowly over the course of that week realized that I think I wanted to go to college.

1:25:22I wanted to kind of experience the college atmosphere in my college year, so I came back and told my parents that I didn't want to sign professionally. I wanted to go to school, continue my education as well as my baseball education. And luckily it worked out.

1:25:38PFT Commenter:Yeah, it worked out because then you ended up being, what, the 15th pick? By the Phillies. Yeah, yeah. You've done your homework. Yeah. I mean, when I saw it, I was reading about it. I was like, he got$875 ,000 offered from the Dodgers when he was in high school. And he turned it down. Like, what an idiot. But then I was like, he went to UCLA. And then it ended up being like 1.8 or whatever it is in a first rounder. pretty good bet on yourself. It was, it was a bet on myself, but also the, I felt like if baseball was really meant to be, I would still, I would still have an opportunity after college.

1:26:09Yeah. I think, I mean, especially looking back on it, those college years are impaired, were imperative for me growing up, um, as a young adult, um, navigating on my own and also still continue to, um, build my baseball skills. Yeah.

1:26:22Big Cat:So you get 1.8 right out of college and then you have to, which is pretty incredible. You have to pay tax on that, which I didn't really, So you only got a million dollars when you graduated from college. I think a lot of people would not be able to handle that right off the bat. How were you able to get through that and focus on what you had to do to actually be good at the job that you already got paid to do? My goal was to be the best player I could be. I know everyone says that, but truly that was my goal, is to try to continue to improve. And obviously, yeah, having some money in the bank was nice.

1:26:58I started investing it. It wasn't the best time to invest it considering it was like the summer of 2000 and then the bubble hit. So that was my first experience of the stock market. I'm thinking, wait, maybe this is not sure. It's not how cracked up what it's supposed to be. But yeah, I enjoyed it. I just wanted to improve. So luckily I've had some great coaches on my side in high school and college that kind of motivated me and pushed me to be the best I could. And again, luckily I had some great coaches in minor leagues as well.

1:27:28Big Cat:It worked out really well for you, obviously. You had a great career. You were adored by the citizens of Philadelphia. The entire city loves you. But I think you were maybe the most hated player by all the teams that the Phillies were playing against. How long did it take for you to be okay with being hated? Actually, from, I don't know, about day one. I remember my first at bat in the big leagues. We were in Philadelphia at Veterans Stadium. And I think I pinch hit late in the game. we were getting we're getting killed at the time and I and I felt like I was having a good at bat fouling pitch after pitch off probably seven or eight nine pitches later I ended up striking out and as I'm walking back to the dugout the home fans of Philadelphia just boo me all the way back to the dugout so that was a quick reality of okay you have to have some thick skin here if you're if your home fans are going to boo you so going to an opposing stadium I always felt like if they're They're booing you for a reason.

1:28:25They're trying to get under your skin, and I tried my best to not let it affect me.

1:28:29Big Cat:Have you ever heard somebody say, fuck Chase Utley in the wild, when they didn't know that you were there? Plenty of times. Oh, didn't know I was there. Yeah, and you're like, hey, that's me. Wait a second. No, I'm not sure I've heard that. Definitely, there's plenty of times where I'm on the field or hanging around the stadium. Yes, I've definitely heard that, and I appreciate it. I love the fan support.

1:28:48PFT Commenter:Yeah. Wait, so your first hit in the big leagues is a home run, and you sprinted around the bases. I did. 16.3 seconds. Kind of a try-hard move, wouldn't you say? Well, that was fired up. I mean, think about it. You get to the big leagues, you get a hit, and it's actually a home run, and it was a grand slam to be back. So, yeah, super fired up. I didn't really feel my feet. You're just kind of sprinting around the bases. I mean I've always kind of run hard a lot and not try to show up to other team that was probably a little bit exaggerated yeah looking back on it I'm not sure I would change it but it's really fast it's really fast it's really fast should have enjoyed it more I definitely should have enjoyed yeah do you ever sprint to first base on a walk never yeah that's that's a move there were a few college teams that did that and I didn't like I didn't think that yeah not part of the

1:29:39Big Cat:game. No. Yeah. I want to ask you about a great play that you made in the World Series, the pump fake to first base throw home. It might be the best pump fake in the history of baseball. Did you know that you were going to pump fake it? Not when it was first hit. No. I mean, you have this internal time clock in your head as you're going for the ball. I was shifted, not to get too many details, but I was shifted towards the first base because we had a left-handed pitcher that threw sinkers in. So most left-handed hitters pulled the ball. And he hit the opposite direction of where I was actually playing.

1:30:09So it was kind of a long run to get there. I knew the run on second base mattered. That mattered more than the guy in the batter's box. So as soon as I caught it, I realized, like, I'm not sure I'm going to have much play. So maybe pump fake it and see what happens. And it was an aggressive base running move. Luckily, Carlos Reese made a good catch and tag.

1:30:28Big Cat:Yeah, it was a sick play. It was a great pump fake. Because watching it back, I was like, I don't think he knew he was going to pump fake until the very last second, which made it such a good pump fake. You're absolutely right. You're absolutely right. yeah because you like i said this internal time clock that you have you just realize something's this isn't maybe i make a perfect throw and he's out but maybe not maybe i throw it away unclear what could happen so it was better to keep it in my hand um and try with the next guy luckily he

1:30:50PFT Commenter:kept going yeah and playing second base so you coming up you played shortstop in third base right and you and you get moved to second base did you take that as like a insult or were you like because you know it it's a different position it's obviously third baseman's got a really strong arm was there any part of you like what the fuck I'm a third baseman I could play this position no I was a shortstop in college my first my freshman year and after making 30 something errors my freshman year I wasn't really I wasn't really short okay I didn't have the I didn't have the athleticism or the arm strength to really play shortstop that's when I moved to second base and I was happy to.

1:31:27It's not an easy position, but it's an easier position than shortstop. I think shortstop's the hardest position on the entire baseball field. And guys that are successful at it make it look easy. It's pretty special.

1:31:38PFT Commenter:Do you think you could, like, was there a point where you could turn a double play with Jimmy Rollins with your eyes closed? Both of you guys having your eyes closed. We turned a lot of double plays. Yeah, you guys had it down. Yeah, maybe not. Maybe sometimes I might have had my eyes closed, to be honest with you. But no, he was, he was, When I talk about great shortstops, he was one of the greatest shortstops because he would always give me great feeds, so it was hard for me to kind of screw it up, even though I did screw some up. But most of the time, he would give me a perfect feed and make it an easy double play.

1:32:09So I was, again, lucky to have him on the other side. Yeah.

1:32:13PFT Commenter:Do you know where you rank in hit-by-pitches all time? It's funny you bring that up. My son, actually, recently, I think we were watching a game and somebody got hit. And my son looks at me and goes, do you think that hurt? I was like, yeah, probably hurt, but it goes away after 30 seconds or a minute. He's like, Dad, don't you have a record for getting hit by pitches? And I was like, I got hit by a lot of pitches. But yeah, I think it's in the top 10 all time. I'm not sure it's a stat that like, is that impressive? Oh, it definitely is. You're ninth all time in the history of Major League Baseball.

1:32:51PFT Commenter:You're ninth. You also got hit by a pitch three times in a single game. That is impressive. That's as tough as tough could be. Was there a specific one where you're like, oh, man, that one? There's a few. Think about it. I got hit in the hand. I broke my hand. So I think about that one because it took me out a month. And that was in 2007. I personally, we were having a good season as a team, but I personally was having a really good season. So that slowed me down a little bit. But the one that hurt the most, I got hit, like, underneath the bicep one time that my whole arm went numb and my hands, like, crunched together.

1:33:29And I couldn't open it. Got you on the nerve. Yeah, yeah. It got me on a nerve. It probably took, I don't know, a minute or so. It felt like eternity. It probably took a minute for my hands to, like, peel back. That one I remember quite a bit.

1:33:40PFT Commenter:And did you ever have, like, getting hit by a pitch and then the next time you're in the box having, like, a little hesitancy? because that would be a natural human reaction. Yeah, no, to be honest with you, no. I mean, there's a few pitchers that I faced that were fairly intimidating, like Aroldis Chapman being big, tall left-hander, kind of throws from here and throws 100 and something. And he didn't know where it was going. It was a little wreck. So he, I was slightly, like most lefties, were slightly uncomfortable facing him.

1:34:07Big Cat:Yeah. Do you have one that you remember that you're like, that kind of felt good? Yeah. There's a bunch of them, especially like if the bases are loaded, those felt good. Yeah. Get on base. I mean I had Ryan Howard hitting behind me Jason Wirth sometimes Pat Burrell hitting behind me so we had some big power hitters hitting behind me so anytime I can get on base I felt like it was an advantage to us yeah you're a guy that I could imagine at some point got hit by a pitch because you pimped getting hit by a pitch like you got hit by a pitch you know I'm saying and then and then you like start running to first base you're like flexing a little bit bat flip you're like that was awesome that felt great you're like you can't show me up getting hit by my pitch I try you again I mean I tried to I didn't I tried not to show much emotion out there for whatever reason that's kind of how I was taught at a young age and I I stuck to it Jimmy Rollins used to give me shit all the time of like do you got to smile a little bit more you got to show a little emotion I just couldn't do it that was not in my in my mo were you like that in the in the clubhouse or just like out on the field yeah probably a few hours before game time is when it started for me fairly loose prior to that but once like it got closer to game time it was like put your game

1:35:15PFT Commenter:face on and stuck with it well jimmy claims that he made you laugh all the time but you just always had your glove over your mouth true so on the field you were laughing true that is that is true yeah as i got a little below it for sure yeah well jimmy's a funny guy yeah um i can't necessarily repeat everything we were laughing about but yeah um but for whatever reason i didn't i didn't feel that it was appropriate for the camera to see me smiling. Looking back on it, maybe I wish I did a little bit more, but it is what it is. Play the game hard the right way. Sounds like a guy who runs the home run run.

1:35:47PFT Commenter:16 seconds, that's so bad. That's so fast, dude. That's so fast. Speaking of playing the game the hard way, you have a rule named after you. Yeah. Chase Utley rule, can't break up, a double play. I miss it. I know it's player safety. Do you think that, like, there was just something about it where it's like, you know a guy's going to be out at second, but he can really fuck this up by sliding in. I miss that part of the game. Do you think, like, there's part of you that's like, man. Well, I think it depends on how you grew up. I grew up watching baseball in the, when I remember, like, mid-80s, late 80s, early 90s, and that's how guys went in, hard all the time.

1:36:27And shortstops and second basemen were aware of the guys that came in harder than others. So, yeah, I miss it because that's how I grew up watching it. I understand the aspect of keeping guys safer. It is definitely going to keep guys safer. Same with the home plate rule now. That's going to keep guys on the field a lot longer. I mean, as a second baseman, I had my fair share of getting flipped and spiked and smashed all the time. And it was part of the game. And you don't necessarily like it in the moment, but you understand that it's part of it.

1:36:58Big Cat:Yeah. Yeah, like for you specifically, it's like if you do it at second base, you know they're going to have the opportunity to do it back to you yeah of course you're going to you're going to deal with the receiving energy no and i remember as i started to do a little bit more due diligence as i got a little bit older on who were playing position how i want to position myself understanding the runners that come in hard scott roland um a hall of famer played for the phillies and went to the the cardinals and reds he came in hot every time and we knew it as infielder so we knew like jimmy and i would have a conversation scott roland's on first base ground double ground ball double play get me the ball quick get me the ball quick so i can get it and get out of the way because he was he was not scared and he was coming for you um and i mean you appreciate that as a baseball player but yeah you you needed to be aware of some guys coming in hot yeah for for player safety how bad was the vet because we've heard about it well i mean i i played probably, I don't know, 30 or 40 games there at most, and it was my rookie season.

1:37:59So I was so much better than AAA Stadium, right? So it wasn't, to me, it wasn't bad in the moment. I mean, looking back, yeah, it was old. It was run down. They didn't put much money into it knowing that they're going to have a brand new stadium. But I was happy to be there. So taking ground balls on a major league field, regardless of what field I was happy with.

1:38:17PFT Commenter:Yeah. All right. I got a really dumb question for you. You had a 35-game hit streak. Was there any point during the hit streak where you're like yeah i'm just gonna get hit every day for the rest of my life because i would definitely think that like i'm the type of guy who like if i hit like three free throws i'm like maybe i missed my last free throw yeah i mean there is a i mean i think in any athlete's um career they go through moments where they just feel invincible right um and in those those short streaks yeah you feel like you can do whatever you want that's not a short streak by the way 35 games is not a short Right, right, right.

1:38:51But during that, it's not like those 35 games, I didn't feel great every single game. There's bits and pieces of that where I didn't feel very good and I was able to leg out a hit or hit a swinging bunt or bloop one over someone's head. But yeah, there are certain moments in there that you feel like you're going to get a hit no matter what. And then vice versa, there's sometimes out there, you can probably talk to a lot of guys that think there's no way I'm ever going to get a hit again. But those are tough pills to swallow. But you just kind of go stick with the program, what got you there.

1:39:23PFT Commenter:So it feels like there was maybe one or two days where you're like, yeah, I think I've solved baseball. Yeah, maybe seven or eight of those. It is a good field. Unfortunately, it just doesn't last long enough. But any hitter at the major leagues that has had some success will tell you, yeah, there are times where you feel like the ball looks like a beach ball and you're going to hit it no matter where it's going to fall. During that streak, are you superstitious? Were you doing anything that was the same? I am superstitious. I don't remember exactly what I was doing, but for 100 % I was doing the same shit every single day.

1:40:00I mean, I would put my stupid corny stuff. I would put my left sock on before I put my right sock on. That was like a constant throughout my career.

1:40:07PFT Commenter:That's not corny. You're the guy with 35 being hit streak. That's not corny. I'm sorry. I've never done that. Maybe I could be really good at baseball. I would eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich before the game. Okay. And I started that in the minor leagues because, as you can imagine, the minor league spread isn't quite like the big league spread. So sometimes the only thing available is making yourself a PB &J. So I stuck with that even in the big leagues, even though there was plenty of great food. So you ate that every game? Pretty much, pretty much every game. We need to have that on a graphic, just being like, you know, however.

1:40:38PFT Commenter:I'm not sure I'm proud of that one. How many games did you play? I don't know. You got the phone right there. Yeah, I know. I got to find it.

1:40:44Big Cat:So did you tell the kids in England, hey, you put your left sock on before your right sock? No, no. There were other things I needed to get through to them before that. I mean, that's step one, though. That's getting dressed. Yeah, step one is like what hand to put your glove on. I think that's – Okay, yeah. Yeah. That was definitely a conversation we had. We had an end-of-the-season tournament this year. We went to Frankfurt. So we traveled to Frankfurt. There were a handful of other teams throughout Europe that were there. And this is a big end of your tournament. Everyone's excited for it. And one kid comes up on the day of the game.

1:41:17He's like, oh, coach, I forgot my glove. I'm like, well, how do you forget your glove in the biggest tournament of the year? He's like, I don't know. I just forgot it. I'm like, well, can you borrow someone else's? And he's like, well, I'm left-handed. I'm like, wow, okay. Well, so I guess you're probably not going to play this week. But go ahead and have fun.

1:41:38Big Cat:What are you going to do, go to a baseball store? I think he got a pinch hit. He got to hit. But, yeah, no defense. So, yeah, to answer your question, no, I did not talk about superstitions to them.

1:41:47PFT Commenter:It was more just easy fundamentals. Yeah. All right. So Chase Utley ate 1 ,937 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. That's pretty crazy. It might be a wreck. Probably more, actually. Yeah, probably double-double a couple times, too. Does that include pro season? I think it does. Okay. Did you ever change it up? What jelly? whatever was available so you're not particular i was not particular okay i prefer the creamy peanut butter over the uh chunky one but if that's all i had it white or wheat again whatever they had i would go probably white because i was in majority of clubhouses we not not so much this is the portion of the podcast like when you see uh like uh fake influencers or like how what's your why how did you get so successful we're just gonna just really drill down on what's in this peanut butter and jelly sandwich what made you great you got some protein you got some carbohydrates you got some sugar in there to get you ready for the game i'm not sure i'm a known nutritionist

1:42:45Big Cat:not terrible well which hand would you use for the knife because you use different hands to bat and throw yeah good question good i mean i didn't i would typically wash my hands out there are times i've gone out in the field with like jelly on my uniform that i smeared try to cover like if i handed you two pieces of bread right now yeah which which i would go left you would go left hand on the knife or left hand on the bread no i would go left hand bread right hand knife okay

1:43:11PFT Commenter:and i would start with the left would you cut it after or you just eat it whole like would you cut it in half do that great question you know the fancy thing i would usually cut it in half you

1:43:19Big Cat:would triangles or rectangles you go across the the diagonal no i would go rectangles okay

1:43:24PFT Commenter:no no triangles ever toast the bread no never okay always eat the crust always always eat okay

1:43:30Big Cat:always any milk with it no milk water water you're not a dairy guy right what's that you're not a big dairy guy right during a certain portion of my career no i was a dairy free why why um i was having knee issues and i was they were killing me and it was i needed to make some adjustments so i checked a bunch of different boxes on trying to like get this inflammation and this pain out of my knees and that was one of the boxes i checked and i told myself i'm going to do it for a month not that I want to do it, but I feel like this could be beneficial. I did it for a month and probably about three weeks into it, honestly, I felt so much better.

1:44:08Really? My body, yes. I mean, I was doing some other things as well, but my body just felt fresher. This was during the middle of the season. So you're playing every single night. You wake up in the morning, something hurts, your ankles hurt, your knees hurt, your back hurts. I remember a particular morning waking up and getting out of bed and walking and I had zero pain and a light bulb went off. And I I attributed it to the lack of dairy at the time. So I stuck with it for a while. Yeah. I'm back on it.

1:44:35PFT Commenter:Okay. Because I was going to say, this is a problem because I just purchased a soft serve ice cream, industrial soft serve ice cream machine for our office. And now this is like. Yes. I missed it. Tremendous. Yeah. But you also felt awesome. I did. And I feel like shit. Yeah. And the only thing I do to fix feeling like shit is eating more ice cream. Yeah. That's probably not a great job.

1:44:55Big Cat:No, that works. It makes me happy.

1:44:57PFT Commenter:It makes you happy. yeah yeah yeah momentary happiness yeah understood so what about pizza yeah now then no i would i was the guy that ordered pizza with no cheese no cheese on pizza no cheese on pizza was it good like a guy who runs a base of 16 that's what that's what this sounds like was that good did you convince yourself it was good enough yeah better than nothing but it's funny because who do we oh it was uh joe kim no who nba player he uh he said that what people don't realize fans don't realize is like being great is really boring because like it's just you have to have a routine did you feel that way where it's like people think it's a glamorous life but it's like no i have to not eat dairy and do the things right it was a great it was a great lifestyle right you get to play a sport that you grew up playing as a kid um you get to travel you you get some money in the bank um you're part of a team but yeah there's definitely some plenty of sacrifices that guys have to make from a hanging out with your buddies going to parties missing weddings missing birthdays missing kids being born that happens all the time but it's part of the program you have to be unfortunately you have to be a little selfish to to to in my opinion to have like to be really successful at a sport yeah really anything to be honest with you yeah um our producer max is a giant

1:46:14Big Cat:phillies fan love it yeah we introduced you a little bit before before you jumped on i know always get a couple questions for you so yeah bring it back some questions let him have it don't step on anything you don't have any valuables on the floor do you because max max will destroy

1:46:29PFT Commenter:you can't get the what's going on with the mic struggling with the mic struggling with the mic

1:46:32Big Cat:i'm back i'm back though fix the mic uh first question this was a very big moment in my life as a child the 08 parade yeah world fucking champions that was back at a time where cursing on TV wasn't necessarily as accepted as it is now? Was that something that you went into that day thinking you were going to do, or was that just feeling the moment? Yeah, feeling the moment. I mean, it started early, right? And you can imagine the few days leading up to that of just celebrating a World Series victory. So, yeah. So it started early. We're on these floats. We're traveling around downtown Philadelphia, and there's literally millions of people.

1:47:11I was there. Yeah. So millions of people just out there supporting us. Beers are flowing. Everyone's having a great time. Then we get to the ballpark, and we all get on stage. We had no idea that someone was going to put a microphone in front of us. And sure enough, they did. And, you know, I was energized along with everyone else, and I kind of came out what I was feeling. I got some grief for it, but mainly a lot of high fives.

1:47:38Big Cat:I think definitely more celebrated than grief. You taught Max the F word. No, no. I mean, that was awesome. You said way too much. Well, I remember, I mean, one of the things I was, at the time, I was sponsored by Utz potato chips. Oh, yeah. Which kind of was fitting.

1:47:56PFT Commenter:Yeah. But after the F-bomb, no longer. They dropped you? Dropped me. No. Maybe it was just coincidental. You're a potato chip. It should have been coincidental. First guy to get canceled. That's insane. Yeah, I know. And I like those chips. They're good chips. Good pretzels, too. Yeah, but fuck them. Yeah, fuck them. They're on site for us now. Yeah, I'm a hers guy anyway. Let's just be honest, though. If they're around, I'm going to eat them. Yeah, they're good. Yeah, this is that protest. No hard feelings. That protest lasted about three seconds for me.

1:48:27Big Cat:Also, if they back the truck up. Yeah. Okay, we're cool nuts.

1:48:31PFT Commenter:They have cheese balls, too. The crab chip?

1:48:34Big Cat:I can't be honest. The crab chip is so good.

1:48:37PFT Commenter:I've been no place to be doing a boycott on nuts.

1:48:38Big Cat:Oh, when I see the crab chip on the shelf, I'm going for that. Yeah. Straight ahead. All right, another question? I have a couple. Yeah, go. You can cut me off. Max, bring it to you. Second one. I don't have a fact check on this, but I feel like you may be the only player in MLB history to have a portion of a field named after you in an opposing field. Utley's corner at Citi Field is forever Utley's corner. Like, what was it about playing against the Mets that you just absolutely dominated them? Great question. Great question. Yeah, great question. I mean, I think any time you're playing against your rival, right, it can elevate your game.

1:49:19I think it can be intimidating. But for me, it was, you know, I wanted to prove them wrong, if you will. So, yeah, we had a lot of success playing in New York, some me personally, some our team. Yeah, I hit a bunch of home runs kind of down that right field line. And, I mean, I haven't nicknamed that my corner, but I guess a bunch of other things.

1:49:42Big Cat:Oh, I was looking it up. apparently like two years ago and you obviously haven't been playing for a long time there was a national broadcast that they still refer to it as outleash warner that's pretty i do remember coming in um i remember after the slide rule i remember coming in the following year playing in new york and i was playing second base and inning is over i'm running off the field and i'm about to go down into the dugout and there's a father son right on you know first row right above the dug out and I kind of just look up and the son who's maybe 10 11 years old he looks at me with this this fire in his eye he's like chase I hope you fucking die like as loud as he could possibly do it and I was like oh my god and I look at the dad like dad and dad goes yeah motherfucker fucker.

1:50:39And that's when I was like, Oh, this is great.

1:50:41Big Cat:Yeah. And that boy, you gotta love this. Meek Phil.

1:50:43PFT Commenter:Yeah. Yeah.

1:50:46Big Cat:All right. Keep going. Um, this one's, this one's a little sillier. The always sunny episode. Yeah. How many real adult men sent you that exact letter after that episode? Quite a few. Yeah. Quite a few. I mean, there was a certain point where the fan, the fan letters got over overwhelming so there's a woman in for the Phillies that was nice enough to kind of open them for me and kind of sort it out to make it a little bit more easier and yeah there were hundreds of those letters. How was working on that? It was great I mean it's the first time I've ever been in front of a TV camera I did it with Ryan Howard which which helped but getting there we were a little nervous right but getting there I mean the guys were great Charlie and Rob, they were awesome, made us feel comfortable.

1:51:35And I realized they're just doing whatever they want, right? They're doing different iterations of different takes. You didn't have to be perfect. And they can cut it and splice it the way they want. So I think having those guys around and kind of giving us an example of what it was like made it so much easier.

1:51:52Big Cat:Have you had a catch with Rob Mack since then? We've had a catch. We've had a catch. He'll be out here this week. Yeah, yeah. We're going to have him on.

1:51:59PFT Commenter:Great. Yeah. Great. Yeah. uh memes do you have a question for chase utley because you do not like him

1:52:09Big Cat:uh mine is in regards to the slide yeah i'll keep it civil why'd you do it you have any regret about it and have you ever apologized to rubitada um your first question is why did i do it why'd you do it why did i do what it was such a blind sides well can you blind as a veteran you knew you were just going in to fuck him up uh that's

1:52:35PFT Commenter:absolutely incorrect keep it civil keeping it civil yeah yeah listen i listen i get it i understand your frustration as a mets fan and i get it um but there was zero intention to fuck anybody up on that play as i as i mentioned before like i grew up watching 80s 90s baseball hard nose slides and at that point I don't know how many years I had in the in the big leagues but you know 10 12 13 years at that point and I've always I've always gone in hard and that was there that was no different obviously the outcome was different than other slides that I've had I didn't anticipate actually hitting him nearly as hard as I did I was actually anticipating him jumping up in the air because the way it all kind of unfolded and as you can imagine it's happening pretty quick so as he took feed I'm thinking okay he's gonna hit the bag get up off his feet in the air and try to throw it so me I'm trying to slide a little bit with my body higher so I can clip a leg and get his throw get his throw off but instead he spun which I was definitely not anticipating and yeah looking back on it I didn't feel good about it I actually felt I I felt terrible about it.

1:53:49I had no intention of hurting him whatsoever. And I attempted to apologize to him. He wanted no part of it, which again, I understand. So yeah, if I could go back in time and knowing the outcome that happened, of course I would have done it differently because I would have realized he's not gonna jump, he's gonna spin and I could have disrupted his throw differently. Hope that answered me.

1:54:16PFT Commenter:How do you feel? That was very good. Yeah, yeah. Are we healed? Do you want to do a non-civil question?

1:54:23Big Cat:No, you're responsible for one of the greatest clips in MLB history. Game after the slide, the year after, when Noah Syndergaard threw and got kicked out, ass in the jackpot. Right. Yeah. It is a great clip. Yeah, the ass in the jackpot. With Tom Hallion. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yes. I mean, listen. I mean, especially kind of playing in the early 2000s, in the players kind of at the time, we were able to kind of police what was going on. You hit our guy, we're going to hit your guy, and it is what it is. I mean, now I've got Major League Baseball, which is rightfully so, steps in a little bit more to keep those confrontations from happening.

1:55:10And in that moment, I mean, I'm expecting me to get beat, right? If they would have hurt one of our players, regardless on purpose or not, we're going to hit their guy just because that's how it used to happen. So I was fully anticipating it to happen. I was surprised that he was thrown out. It was just too, at the time, it was too blatant. And the umpires probably were on warning anyway, so they didn't have much of a choice. But yeah, here in, yeah. As the jackpot. Yeah, it was. It's a great phrase. It was a good one.

1:55:41PFT Commenter:It's a great clip. I agree. Is there one pitcher that you hated facing and one that you were like, I can't wait to face him? I mean, there's a few guys that I enjoyed facing, only because I had some success off him. Some guys you just see better than others. There's a guy here at the tournament, Derek Lowe, who had a really successful career. For whatever reason, I saw the ball well off him, so I had some success off him. There were other guys, not so much. I mean, speaking of role as Chapman. Lucky I didn't have to face him very often, but he was tough. Dontrell Willis. Remember Dontrell? Yeah.

1:56:17He was funky for me. I just could not pick up the ball. He's big, herky-jerky motion. He had like a knee brace on, which for some reason I could not look at. Yeah, he was tough. Good guy, but he was tough.

1:56:29PFT Commenter:Yeah. What about ballparks in general? Was there a ballpark that was harder for you to see the ball in? um i don't know about see the ball but some ballparks are a little bit more uncomfortable than others at least for me like i mean obviously i enjoyed playing in cincy bank park i enjoy playing in dodger stadium going to new york you see the ball really well and the fans are into it so it kind of livens the atmosphere playing in wrigley field is awesome regardless of the crazy day games and the shadows that that you deal with as a hitter like it's still so much fun to play there going to san francisco um is can be challenging because you're traveling around the around the country during this summer time and everywhere you're going it's 75 to 95 degrees and you're rolling to san francisco and it's 55 and you're wearing sleeves and and it's freezing the ball the wind's doing weird weird things so that that i didn't really enjoy playing in san francisco because it was so much different than everywhere else yeah beautiful park but yeah tough tough to tough to hit it yeah it'd be tough to hit it um all right i got one last question At Raising Cane's, we focus on making the most crepeable chicken finger meals,

1:57:34Big Cat:getting them right every time. That's why we hand batter every chicken finger, mix every cane sauce, butter every Texas toast, stir every slaw, salt every fry, squeeze every lemon, and brew every ounce.

1:57:48PFT Commenter:We do this inside every Raising Cane's, every day. Because when you do it right, you can taste it in every bite. Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers, one love. uh got it down love that yeah do you ever that take you to memorize oh we've been doing it for a long time okay long time do it in my sleep it's like double play with jimmy rollins uh

1:58:09Big Cat:do you have your gold card on you i don't know i really want to just see one it's not i just ask every baseball player i'm convinced that it's not real but everybody says they agree to say that it's real i do yes you haven't yes never used it you've never used it i mean what is really gold

1:58:28PFT Commenter:oh my god look how cold that is it says the commissioner of baseball in an appreciation of long uh this is long and uh meritorious service present this lifetime pass chase utley and guest that's awesome you've never used it what am i gonna am i gonna walk up to the guy that's just hired for that day and say hey here you go yes i mean look at me like what the hell is this? This thing is solid. How many guys do you think have never used it? I would bet 95 % of guys have never used it. That's crazy to me. Did you ask Shane? Yeah, he said he never used it. Have you asked anybody that says they have used it?

1:59:10Big Cat:I don't know. I think most guys that get this card have somebody they can call. Who?

1:59:17PFT Commenter:I think maybe Dan Heron, our friend Dan Heron has used it like once or twice.

1:59:22Big Cat:Dan was tough. Funky split finger. was yeah we're trying to make a case for dan for the hall of fame we've been working on this case for a long time you you i love a hall of famer or you think it's gonna happen wait max oh yeah

1:59:40PFT Commenter:i mean that do you like think about it when the every year when it comes around i do now yeah something i had never thought about before but now you're once your name's part of the conversation yeah it makes you think about it um who do we have to disparage for you we're down to do that Is there a specific person you want us to just sully their name? No. Okay. No. I mean, that's the beautiful thing about voting, right? Everyone's got their own personal opinion and viewpoint of it. And some are here and some are here, which creates some pretty cool debates. Here's a little tip. The Baseball Writers Association maybe skews a little older, a little more like, hey, respect the game.

2:00:21PFT Commenter:I think you've got to start using your gold card. or maybe give it to a couple guys that would use it. That's a great idea. Yeah. Two guys that help me compile like a mailing list.

2:00:30Big Cat:Yeah, you love the game. If there's two guys that love going to baseball games, just like obsessed with having fun, going to a day game, drinking some beers, doing the 50-50 raffle. If you know two guys like that, I think you gave them your card, you'd have a pretty good chance. I feel like it's a good idea. Do you guys go to many Cubs games?

2:00:49PFT Commenter:Yeah, I have season tickets. Wrigley's pretty incredible. Don't go to a lot of White Sox games. But yeah, White Sox Stadium has better food than Wrigley. Do they? It's a fact. Really good food. Yeah. Really good food. That's what they spend their money on. Have you talked to Ricketts yet about it? He's got to sign Kyle Tucker. That's what we got to worry about. We don't care about the food. He can feed me cardboard if he signs Kyle Tucker. I don't care. I don't care. Yeah. He's very, very good. Is there a specific guy, last, last question, that you love watching? Like a guy that you're like, that guy.

2:01:19I mean, Kyle Tucker's a great hitter. Yeah, good answer. uh i mean it's fun to watch aaron judge because you never know he can hit it to the moon anywhere on the field I mean, I follow mostly the Phillies and Dodgers, the two teams I played for. Schwarber is fun to watch. Yeah, Schwarber is the best.

2:01:39PFT Commenter:The best. Shoei Otani just flicks stuff over the fence and makes it look too easy. Freddie Freeman is the ultimate professional hitter. I don't think there's a more professional hitter than Freddie Freeman currently. What does that mean? He doesn't get off his game plan. His game plan is to shoot a ball to left center. And if it's in, he'll pull it. but his whole focus is to hit it to left center, and it's pretty impressive. He doesn't get off it ever, which is hard to do. You tell yourself as a hitter, like, all right, this is my game plan for the day. But there are times, certain times, where, like, you'll get out of that, and I don't think he ever gets out of that.

2:02:12Big Cat:Yeah. So your game plan for the day was – it would vary depending on who you're hitting against? Yeah, yeah. Because I think a lot of times nowadays, especially, like, the game plan is hit a home run or strike out, right? I don't know if it's that. But listen, I think pitching today is harder to hit than it was 10 years ago. Yeah. I think guys are just more velocity, more tougher spin. It's just, I think it's just a fact. I think hitters are now starting to catch up to it because now they've seen it for a number of years. But I think it's challenging to hit. So it's hard to put a game plan together.

2:02:47Their control isn't quite, I don't think, the same as it used to be. But they're also throwing a lot harder. So I think that can make up for it. But it's still fun to watch. There's some super talented players at the big league level. But Shohei Otani is fun to watch, as is Freddie Freeman. And Kyle Tucker. And Kyle Tucker. And my boy, Justin Turner.

2:03:05PFT Commenter:Yeah, Justin Turner. Right? Has he been on the show? He has not. We need to get him on. The fake nuts thing was pretty funny. Did you see that? I did see that. Yeah, that was pretty funny. Were they fake? They were. For a second, I was like, are those real? And then I was like, those are really skinny nuts. That would not be great.

2:03:22Big Cat:They weren't truck nuts. They were too small to be tried. There might have been like bicycle nuts that you can put on the back of like your coffee. I suggest you guys, there's the par three, the 12th hole par three where the boat, the million dollar boat. Yeah. I don't know if it's a million dollars or boat, whatever it is. You guys set up shop there. Yeah. And you guys cruise in and do like a three minute interview because it usually backs up. Yeah. I like that. Okay. That is a good idea.

2:03:47PFT Commenter:Great idea. Yeah. Although we're not good at three minute interviews.

2:03:50Big Cat:Maybe we'll just have memes yell at us for three minutes.

2:03:52PFT Commenter:We are similar to like going into a game with a game plan. We go into the game plan and then, Hey, let's talk about how chase Utley made his peanut butter and jelly for 10 minutes. Actually, I, I, I'm still interested.

2:04:05Big Cat:Yeah. I have a few more questions. The small details is that's really what separates the great from the good. Yeah. Right. That's why you should be in the hall of fame. Nobody else had that type of discipline to love themselves the same meal every day. Plastic knife, whatever butter knife.

2:04:18PFT Commenter:Okay. But you would, would you, would you prefer a real knife? no no butter knife perfectly fine sitting down or standing up depending on oh good question both both you would mix that up there are times where i was kind of on the move so i didn't sit down plate or paper towel again both both yeah yeah would you ever make one for someone else no i've suggested it for others but no and they would never take you up no yeah yeah there was a there was a fad for a point in time where oh you had everyone we were ripping through peanut butter like when you guys were winning the world series everyone was eating peanut butter yeah was there any did you play with anyone who ever had a peanut butter allergy nothing i'm aware of okay no that would be bad yeah that would have been would it have would you have stopped it depends how severe okay that's a good answer and how good they were true like if they're end of the bench guy it's like come on man you can get your epi pen chase has to have his peanut butter

2:05:12Big Cat:and jelly did you ever have one during a game yes oh plenty so you would you would just like sneak off well i mean listen you're going tost louis in the middle of summer and it's 97 degrees with 98 humidity and you can't it's you're dying so you're just sweating you're dying and you need some energy and that was my go-to to get some some type of energy so yeah i would have them during the

2:05:34PFT Commenter:middle of the game would you post game it no never never just business yeah do you ever would you ever go with uncrustables do you know what those are i know what those are okay i had them i don't think i had any during okay you like the crust you said earlier i do i do enjoy the crust yeah there's something about the process of making it too you never had anyone else make it never wow no look at this i think that's all the peanut butter and just weird shit huh yeah yeah yeah i don't think i have any what did you like the peanut butter they had to stir around yeah the the one where the oil no hate it hate that okay you would obviously do peanut butter on one side and jelly on the other and then put them together you would know sometimes i what sometimes i mix it yeah so you go that's crazy you would you put the you always well then you're done you're done with the thing you're just throwing it in the in the tray but what if you didn't get enough jelly and then you go on the peanut butter side then you dip back in now you got peanut butter in the jelly fair no that happened i can tell that happened that has happened yeah that's that's culprit on that you're savage all right chase hutley thank you man no Guys, my pleasure.

2:06:40Thanks for having me on. The man. That was fun.

2:07:38Big Cat:The Sonic Boom Alarm Clock has a couple more steps to setting up than I first thought. A lot of buttons. We don't have it all the way equipped yet.

2:07:45PFT Commenter:What does that mean?

2:07:47Big Cat:I had a little bit of a tough time figuring out how to set the time on it.

2:07:51PFT Commenter:From the reviews that I heard, it's going to shake your apartment.

2:07:55Big Cat:I read some things I'm worried about, like neighbor interference, like noise complaints to the leasing office. But you got to get up. You got to try it. You got to get up. Yeah.

2:08:05PFT Commenter:You got to get up. gotta get up to get down all right hank fqs

2:09:11Big Cat:I look ridiculous This could be such a bad night for me And you guys just want it to be so much worse Please That's not true Look at me right now Look at what I'm doing for you I look ridiculous

2:09:31Big Cat:He's right, Daddy. I don't think you're doing it for us, though. Yes, I mean, it's not fucking working. Everything you tell me to do doesn't work. For my fucking asshole. Those are two different things.

2:09:48PFT Commenter:Max has revealed the soul patch.

2:09:52Big Cat:Oh, the soul patch reveal. I saw the soul patch reveal. somebody posted a clip of it the other day and I laughed out loud for like 10 seconds

2:09:59PFT Commenter:it's so good piss dog's a good one too that's a good question though

2:10:07Big Cat:it wasn't it was a little more heated contentious at the time but I won't even say it say it Hank you have to say it Billy the podcast when Billy after Billy was falling asleep was or when he was falling asleep was was like that was it was very funny that was a funny moment very heated when he fell asleep on the oh the podcast after watching no watching him fall asleep

2:10:35PFT Commenter:yes yeah yes that was entertaining clients yeah yeah yeah was so bad it's so funny yeah yeah also when he stepped to pft that was funny yeah or the hot sauce yeah i think that was the hot

2:10:47Big Cat:sauce was the best and if i could if i could relive and just i wish maybe the the the most heated argument that almost broke up the show that i thought was so funny the whole time and i was just like kind of like you guys were both like legit coming to me after like you know trying to i don't even know but the mountain dew debate oh i do bottle yeah you guys were both like it was i don't know could be trying to gaslight like i don't know what fuck it was i was like i don't Who's to say? I think the PFT is like, I've been big cats. They're sitting behind you. Many fine people on both sides of that debate.

2:11:22Big Cat:You never know. That's the bottom line. The beauty of that argument is you can never know.

2:11:26PFT Commenter:He's gaslighting me again. The Joe Burrow interview. Because I think we don't, I think it was so awesome, but we don't remember. Like, that's just insane that we got to interview the national, the Heisman Trophy winner who just won a national championship like six hours prior, and we were fucking bombed for it.

2:11:45Big Cat:I think along those same lines, the first time we heard Coach O's voice in the office at LSU, we heard him before we saw him, and it was just goosebumps, just hearing him walk down the hall, where are these boys at? Yep, yep. Chills. Which NFL quarterback?

2:12:01PFT Commenter:Also Sopranos. Yeah.

2:12:04Big Cat:Yeah, fuck you. Which NFL quarterback? Whose head got run over by the SUV in the gas station? Phil Leotardo. Phil Leotardo, yeah, that's right. Train guy? No, that's Bobby Bacala. He got shot in the toy train shop. Which NFL QB would you take to partner with in a fight to the death tag team style? Ooh. Which NFL quarterback? Like current? Current, shit. I think debate on whether or not he's a quarterback might be Taysom Hill.

2:12:33PFT Commenter:Oh, I thought you were going to say Jalen Hurts.

2:12:34Big Cat:No, no. Certified. I thought you were too. I was. If you could see my Preface got angry

2:12:43PFT Commenter:Max That's disrespectful You didn't get pre-mad your preface got angry

2:12:47Big Cat:My preface started to get angry I started talking my hands

2:12:51PFT Commenter:Jalen Hurts is the right answer

2:12:53Big Cat:He's fucking insanely strong I might take Baker

2:12:57PFT Commenter:Baker seems like a dog Baker is a dog He would literally fight to the death I also like I don't think we give enough credit to just how like massive of a human Josh Allen is. Yeah. Like strength and size.

2:13:11Big Cat:So nice though.

2:13:11PFT Commenter:I know. But like imagine if he like he could just fucking maul someone.

2:13:17Big Cat:Tua. No. What? That's like one bad answer. Yeah. I was just throwing names out there. I'm trying to get a conversation started. The absolute worst. Dak's probably worse based on the track record. No. Tua would bump his head and be out. We've got video evidence of Dak Prescott in a fight. Yeah, that's true. Lamar is also big.

2:13:39PFT Commenter:Yeah, Lamar would be a good pick. I bet he's got hands. Yeah. Joe Flacco. Old dad strength. Oh, Anthony Richardson.

2:13:51Big Cat:Yeah. That would be a good pick.

2:13:53PFT Commenter:He's a massive human being.

2:13:55Big Cat:Caleb?

2:13:56PFT Commenter:Probably not.

2:13:58Big Cat:Doesn't want to break a nail.

2:13:59PFT Commenter:Oh! Spicy. Good one.

2:14:05Big Cat:I love when Hank gets like this. It's great. I fucking love it. The whole day, he's just going to be thinking of subtle jabs at everyone.

2:14:12PFT Commenter:It would just be like, no, I'm not mad, and then just fucking pepper him in for the next two days straight all because of a Mount Rushmore. That was a good joke, though.

2:14:23Big Cat:Hey, Zach and Company, long-time listener, first-time FAQ. What's one moment in PMT history you thought you might actually get you canceled or kicked off air?

2:14:32PFT Commenter:Well, when we did.

2:14:33Big Cat:We did get kicked off air.

2:14:34PFT Commenter:Yeah, we did get kicked off air.

2:14:38Big Cat:I don't think. I mean, we work at Bar... There's never been concerns about... Like, the Taylor Swift one, but that was never actually...

2:14:45PFT Commenter:I never was like...

2:14:46Big Cat:Like, it was a joke. Dave was joking about it, but it was never anything more than a joke.

2:14:50PFT Commenter:Yeah.

2:14:52Big Cat:I don't think... I thought Dave was going to fire me when I pushed Bosco at King of Arsenal. Oh, yeah. Also was turned into a nothing. Yeah. It couldn't have been more of a nothing. You were so nervous. That was great because it gave Dave a great opportunity to show Bosco, like, hey, I'm on your side. Like, bring him in for, like, a pat on the head. Like, I got your back, Bosco. No, I think the word for word was I would have been mad if you pushed someone, but it was Bosco, so I don't care. Yeah, which is fair. Yeah.

2:15:20PFT Commenter:Yeah, I don't think there's, I mean, besides the time we actually got canceled.

2:15:25Big Cat:I don't think so. Oh, yeah. The thought really hasn't crossed my mind. No. hey big cat pft happy that your tongue survived another year of staying out of each other's butts will we ever see any more specific pmt 24-hour streams how much work goes and be able to pull that off for guys on camera those behind the scenes one of my favorite memories was you guys playing n64 during the middle of the night and would love to see more of the random content like that love your show thanks for the putting smiles on everyone's face that was in the place of grit week i believe it was during covid when we couldn't get into training camp that's correct So we did a grit stream, which was a 24-hour one.

2:15:59Big Cat:Occasionally, we pop up on Barstool After Dark, take part in their little locked-in-hell stream challenges. The Yaks doing a 12-hour stream soon.

2:16:10PFT Commenter:Another dig?

2:16:12Big Cat:I'm trying to think. Yeah, Barstool After Dark is probably where - But you guys did one. Yeah, you guys did one. Yeah, what did we do? We did 24 hours. I think it would be like 22 or something. Max hit Blake in the head with a hockey stick. Yep, that was Max.

2:16:28PFT Commenter:We could do one. We could do a part of my take sleepover if we got correct sponsorships. I would do it.

2:16:35Big Cat:How long was the darts? Darts was... That was a long one, too.

2:16:42PFT Commenter:Wait, how long was the stand-up?

2:16:46Big Cat:Stand-up was an hour.

2:16:47PFT Commenter:Oh, it felt like five days.

2:16:50Big Cat:Crushed pay-per-views. People love stand-up Especially us Six months beforehand It's really easy to follow a warmed up crowd like that, Hank

2:17:01PFT Commenter:No one's ever been worse at stand-up than memes It was a one-man show

2:17:05Big Cat:It wasn't stand-up, it was a one-man show It was high art A textbook case of procrastination Where memes are just like, I'll figure it out later Until it was the day of the show And he had like two hours left He's like, I think I gotta figure it out

2:17:19PFT Commenter:If you didn't like memes stand up, you just didn't understand it. Yeah, you didn't understand it.

2:17:23Big Cat:It was a one man show. The Punishment was one man show. Hank. And then it was just like, oh, comedy show. You're opening.

2:17:30PFT Commenter:Yeah. Okay. Is that it? One more. One more.

2:17:37Big Cat:Oh, I like this. If you had to build an NFL team slash skill position roster at a PMT guest, no professional athletes. What? Who would make that list? okay I think somebody asked us this about the NBA as starting five at one point I think okay still a tight end uh maybe John Taffer at guard John oh no he said skill position oh skill position

2:18:01PFT Commenter:we're still a tight end um who have we had that's fast that is fast Jerry O 'Connell played quarterback in

2:18:13Big Cat:true.

2:18:13PFT Commenter:Yeah, we'll put we'll put JLC a quarterback.

2:18:19Big Cat:This is tough. Maybe Rebecca remain somewhere.

2:18:23PFT Commenter:Yep.

2:18:24Big Cat:Coach's but no, no. Maybe tight end for her. Stop. What? Owen Wilson. Owen Wilson. Whoa.

2:18:37PFT Commenter:What just happened? What just happened to you? Mark Wahlberg at running back

2:18:44Big Cat:Wahlberg at running back

2:18:45PFT Commenter:that'd be good I don't know who the wide receivers would be we need wide receivers we need fast guys

2:18:50Big Cat:Pablo Torre wait

2:18:51PFT Commenter:Randy Moss

2:18:53Big Cat:we have Randy Moss oh yeah Randy Moss the receiver I feel like Wahlberg at receiver wasn't at his position yeah

2:18:59PFT Commenter:yeah he could be slot receiver yeah Randy Moss on the outside Wendy Wendy is a fullback love that

2:19:09Big Cat:Josh Duhamel

2:19:11PFT Commenter:Josh Jumel. He was a quarterback, right? Yeah, he could be the quarterback.

2:19:13Big Cat:He'll be starting quarterback. Jerry can back him up. He could be the backup for sure.
