In short

“Hungover episode” from LA with Dan Soder as guest. Main sports talk is a recap of Philadelphia’s rough Monday night: the Sixers getting dominated by the Knicks (described as a “scheduled loss” / 40-point-type blowout). They also discuss the other NBA playoff game (Timberwolves vs Spurs), then do “choose your own adventure” picks for upcoming series (Cavs/Pistons; Thunder/Lakers), plus Hot Seat/Cool Throne and FAQ-style banter.

Guest backgrounds

Dan Soder is a stand-up comedian (described as one of the hosts’ favorite comedians). The episode also features the regular “Pardon My Take” crew (Max, PFT, Hank, Zach, etc.), but the only named external guest is Dan Soder.

Key claims

  1. Knicks’ Game 3 performance vs the Sixers was so lopsided it felt like a “scheduled loss,” with the Knicks dominating and Jalen Brunson “could not miss.”
  2. The Knicks’ recent trend is winning by 25+ in multiple straight games, making them feel like they could cruise to the Finals.
  3. Timberwolves are “dogs/pups” and can beat anyone in big moments; Wemby’s blocks don’t decide everything because the Wolves adjust late.
  4. For the next round, hosts expect Cavs to win (and debate Pistons vs Cavs), and expect Thunder to be far better than Lakers.

Notable examples

  • Brunson making “every single shot,” plus Sixers fans/beat reporters saying the loss “isn’t that bad” due to limited minutes.
  • Wemby’s 12 blocks vs the Spurs game, with discussion of possible goaltends and Wolves’ strategy to let him block while still getting tips/deflections into offense.
  • Jacoby Brissett “holdout” discussion (including a “Grand Canyon filled with jizz” bet joke).

0:00PFT Commenter:Hey, Pardon My Take listeners, you can find every episode on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. Okay guys, it's Grit Week. This is the part of the football calendar where nobody's watching but everything gets built. Early mornings, pads back on, conditioning, film, reps, spring training in football is all about putting in the work when nobody's cheering yet. And honestly, that's the same mindset behind the Chevy Silverado. This is a truck that is the definition of grit. Long days, dirty work, and showing up day after day no matter the conditions. Strong, dependable, and built for the grind.

0:41PFT Commenter:Because grit isn't about being flashy. It's about being ready when it's time to go. Check out the current offers and build your Silverado at Chevy.com. that's Silverado all grit no quit and you can build your Silverado at Chevy.com today on today's part of my take presented by DraftKings we've got Dan Soder on the pod great interview with him one of our favorite comedians we talk a lot of football too which was a lot of fun just this is the time of year we get a little little you know a little hungry for some football talk some ball with him.

3:01PFT Commenter:welcome to part of my take presented by draft kings the crown is yours today is wednesday May 6th. May the 6th be with you, boys. And with you. Also with you. I love Star Trek. Yeah.

3:15Big Cat:My favorite program growing up.

3:17PFT Commenter:Yes. Boys, we're in LA. We're in a hotel room in LA. It's gonna be my... It's gonna be my... Did you see... Oh, did you see the Cardinals pitcher? May, and he wears number three, and he was pitching on May 3rd. No, I did not see that. Pretty fucking cool. Wild. Yeah, this is the day five of the road trip uh the hang hungover episode we got an awesome episode we have dan soder on um we're also gonna do some choose your own adventure because we have our live show tonight uh how we feeling boys how's everyone feeling i'm feeling great i'm feeling really good yeah yeah really

3:52Big Cat:good oh hank you're probably feeling better than really good i feel great yeah i slept uh i slept

3:57PFT Commenter:on the car ride from Vegas to la yeah we pulled into la and um and i so so we we took the car right from Vegas to LA. It was about a five-hour drive. I expected everyone to sleep. PFT and I stayed up. We ripped, I would say, conservatively three hours of Immaculate Grids.

4:14Big Cat:It was about three hours. I told Big Cat that if there was a sneaky GoPro, if somebody had hit a camera inside our car, we would probably be cancelled as a sports podcast because of how bad we were at Immaculate Grid. At one point, Big Cat was like, is there such a thing as just like Immaculate Quarterback? If we could do Immaculate Grid just for backup quarterbacks? I think every time we didn't know an answer, we'd be like, um did Gardner Minshew play a scene of them Tommy Pham yeah Tommy Pham Tommy Pham I was looking for that Tommy Pham and then Hank to his credit Hank did participate he's kind of underselling himself a little bit Hank would chime in from time to time uh yawning in his sleep just the craziest yawn I know that we've talked about Hank's yawns before he was letting him fly to a point where like you were laying it on a little thick I don't think those are natural yawns he was making he was

4:59PFT Commenter:sleeping and i've never heard anyone sleeping make more like bodily noises because there was at one point he was dead asleep he coughed sneezed and burped all within like a five minute span but he was everyone was dead to the world rightfully so hank also did wake up i don't even think he

5:17Big Cat:woke up he was still sleeping he goes braxton barriers yeah he nailed it he he taxing dolphin

5:23PFT Commenter:yeah texan dolphin we and so we pull into to la and he just goes that wasn't that bad of a drive and i immediately was like no it wasn't then i stopped it was like holy shit dude you were asleep for 95 of that and we had max was dead in the back rightfully so zach had the rare i think pft asked him when we were at the when we stopped once uh if he was hung over and zach was like i'm still drunk and he was sitting shotgun just in and out of sleep uh it was a hell of a drive boys it was quite the drive yeah i appreciate manning that shit because still no glasses i don't think

5:58Big Cat:i'll ever get him back were you did you search for him again i went i went on a reconnaissance mission i did and i came back home no glasses what at what time was your your reconnaissance mission to the cabaret reconnaissance mission the cabaret was post-show probably like maybe two ish probably 2 a.m 2 a.m and i didn't get my glasses when yeah i got back at like eight but like time is it listen you gotta go you gotta find your glasses i think the same way every

6:28PFT Commenter:ass cheek has to be uncovered zach looked in every every corner subjective every dark every

6:33Big Cat:dark place inside that club zach you did a very thorough job look you know now for a fact that like your glasses they can't be in there yeah there's no way and if they are they're in the the most hidden spot one could ever be. Oh, I know a couple of them. Yeah, there's a couple of those there. I thought I checked all of them more than once. So Zach comes back. Regrettably so. You come back. After you're done looking, obviously you're mentally and physically exhausted from all the looking you were doing. And you're like, got to get some sleep. Got to get some shutout. We got a big drive tomorrow.

6:59Big Cat:So Zach goes to sleep in his hotel room. And then Dom, Big Cat's assistant, he comes up to me. He's like, let's go. I want to show you the room right now. I want to show you the state that Zach's in. And so we go in there and Zach was just passed out with his bomb alarm clock firing full volume next to his ear. Like we could hear it down the hallway and you're just not moving at all. But actually, Zach, I think we now can say like you have you have an actual sleep issue if you're not waking up to that. We had to wake him up manually. I think we knew that. Yeah, we did.

7:32PFT Commenter:We absolutely knew that.

7:33Big Cat:I checked the app summary for the week. It said I was waking up from alarm less than one minute. But then I go back and I see that video and the summary couldn't be more worse or more off. Yeah. Also, it could have been Dom hearing the alarm and then turning your alarm off. Dom, if you had to do that, I'm so sorry.

7:48PFT Commenter:That was also the most excused sleep in possible. Because you, I mean, think about all the energy you have to expend to go search for your glasses for six hours alone in a strip club.

7:58Big Cat:And when you don't have your glasses, you have to look even harder because you can't see. Yeah. So you're like squinting the entire time.

8:03PFT Commenter:We saved zero story. We've just said it. Oh, that's not true. That's not true.

8:07Big Cat:That's not true at all. So I think what you have to have, Zach, what we've learned from this week is you need, like the best alarm clock for you is another human being that's in the room with you that hears your alarm going off that will then wake you up. I think that's where we're at, where you have to have, I was saying yesterday to Colton, you should almost like have a kid and hope that it grows up to be Bam Margera. Yeah. So it'll just wake you up every morning by like slapping the shit out of you. Beating the shit out of you. That is one way to get up.

8:34PFT Commenter:Yeah. But we're all here. We're all alive. And on Monday night, the city of Philadelphia had a little – it was kind of like a wake-up call. Like, hey, that was a fun weekend. Max's bachelor party was awesome. Flyers losing overtime, which they had so many chances. Sixers got dummied. Max?

8:56Big Cat:Yeah, Silverino. That was a scheduled loss. That was an NBA scheduled loss.

9:00PFT Commenter:I have a question about the scheduled loss piece. there is no game in this series that is more than one day. I know. So is it just going to be a scheduled loss series?

9:11Big Cat:It's not a great schedule. It's not a great schedule for the boys.

9:14PFT Commenter:Yeah. Did you watch the game? I did. I watched the game.

9:20Big Cat:There was a point in the third quarter where, because the Flyers game and that game were going on at the same time, where the basketball game was just completely over. So I switched over to the Flyers game. I hate when that happens, by the way.

9:31PFT Commenter:You've got to figure that out. If the city has two teams, you have to stagger it.

9:36Big Cat:So I had it on my phone as a second screen, but I checked out in the third quarter for sure. There was no point.

9:49PFT Commenter:How do you feel? Because I agree that it was a scheduled loss, but it was a loss.

9:55Big Cat:So was game one of the Celtics game. True. True. Were you thinking like get the starters out way before they did? I actually saw some Sixers fans and like beat reporters being like, low-key, this isn't that bad because much less minutes.

10:11PFT Commenter:Yeah, they all played like 25 minutes. And Jalen Brunson was – he could not miss.

10:17Big Cat:There was – no one on the planet was stopping Jalen Brunson in that game. He made – he was making every single shot no matter what.

10:23PFT Commenter:Yeah. He was incredible. Memes, you promised this. You said this on Sunday You said you're going to win in five You're going to fucking kill them

10:33Big Cat:Game one we said on Sunday's show That we were going to get smoked

10:38PFT Commenter:But so far memes is the correct one Well the Knicks

10:42Big Cat:Just collect after game three The past three games they won by 25 plus And they just have a better team Overall I'm not going to hold anything Accountable that Max said on Sunday He's fucked up

10:52PFT Commenter:There were things that people were telling me

10:56Big Cat:That happened in the show that I didn't remember happened in the show.

Read the full transcript

10:59PFT Commenter:Are you getting any backlash for the New York rich Philly poor?

11:03Big Cat:I don't know. I haven't really looked at my social media too much the past couple days, to be honest. Yeah. I know it was a schedule loss, but like schedule, was it even demoralizing how bad the loss was? Yeah, that's kind of what it was. Oh, yeah, that was bad. Right. Nothing was good about it except for the minutes. Like the Knicks just absolutely dominated that game. but luckily the Sixers have shown that they can get smoked in a game and come back and win. It's game one to seven game series. Do you think Tibbs is rooting for the Knicks? You know he wants to be back in. I know. I think a guy like Tibbs probably cares about the guys but like fucking can't stand the jerseys.

11:44Big Cat:You know, like he can't stand the ownership. So I don't know. I don't know where his heart would be at. But the Knicks look like they do look like they're just going to – It's going to be a cakewalk for them to the NBA Finals. Yeah. What do you think, Zach? I mean, very impressive performance yesterday. They're saying Sixers might take some of their guys out. That is good for you guys. It's a multiple game series. Way to start the series. 40-point win. Love to see that. 39. Not quite 40. That's fair. I rounded up. I shouldn't have done that. Yeah, I should have done that. That was actually fucked up.

12:16Big Cat:That was fucked up. That was. That was. I'll never round up again. They're saying this might have been a schedule loss for the Sixers, which is good. I was curious, will there be any scheduled wins? Because we look great.

12:26PFT Commenter:Oh, that folks was Zach's shit-talking right there. We do look good. Answer the question, will there be any scheduled wins?

12:35Big Cat:I don't know if scheduled wins because the schedule is in favor of the Knicks, but we'll have some on-the-court wins, maybe. Okay. I want to clarify, I don't necessarily think that the Knicks are just going to blow through the entire East. I think that the way they've been playing, though, they have to be feeling good enough about themselves where they have to think we might just not ever lose until we get to the finals. They shot 65 % from the field and 50 % from the third. But Meme said they're playing like that. They've been doing that repeatedly. It's not just tonight or last night.

13:05PFT Commenter:I mean, if that's the case, if they do that every single game, they're the best team in the history of the NBA. That's on the cards right now. That's what we're saying.

13:12Big Cat:They have to be thinking. It's a perfect spot. New York is actually thinking right now like, there's a chance that we might be the best NBA team of all time.

13:20PFT Commenter:What if we never miss a shot again? That's what they're saying. They're literally saying that.

13:23Big Cat:That would be impressive and I would tip my cat.

13:25PFT Commenter:Yeah. Hank, have you decided who you're rooting for in this series?

13:28Big Cat:No, I'm rooting for I'm just rooting. I actually did come to this realization last night. I'm rooting for the home team to lose every game. I want the fans. I want every fan to be upset at the games. So that I guess would be.

13:43PFT Commenter:So you're 0 for 1.

13:44Big Cat:Yeah, that would be 6 or yes. Sixers and 7.

13:50PFT Commenter:Sixers in 78.

13:52Big Cat:No, that can't happen. Sixers would have to win one home game. But yeah, that was what I came to the realization.

13:58PFT Commenter:You won Knicks in seven at this point. No. Yeah, I don't even know.

14:02Big Cat:But wait, Hank, what if it's a bunch of fans from New York that take the train down to Philly, they take over the stadium, and then the Sixers beat all the New York fans in Philly in front of Knicks fans? I think seven games, like at this point, I'm just rooting for seven games. It's the most entertainment. and it gives whoever wins the least amount of chance to win the next series. As we saw last night with the Sixers, you go seven games. It's tough to win after that. So, yeah, I'm rooting for a seven-game series, and I guess Sixers and seven because that would mean they win at home or on the road.

14:36PFT Commenter:Game seven would be, I believe, the start of Grit Week. That would be fun. Yeah, someday. That would be a fun little wrinkle.

14:42Big Cat:Yeah. And then who are you rooting for the other side of the East? The Cavs. Okay, so you want the Cavs to then smoke. whoever wins this series.

14:50PFT Commenter:Yeah. And then for them to get smoked.

14:53Big Cat:Yeah. No, I don't really. I don't. I don't. As long as it's on the Thunder, I'm rooting for anyone but the Thunder. The Lakers. I guess. I mean, the Lakers to win this series. I hope the Lakers win this series. Yeah.

15:05PFT Commenter:We're going to do a choose your own adventure in a minute because we have our live show. They're going to get smoked. I completely agree.

15:13Big Cat:But yeah, it was tough. It's like I was just kind of sighing the whole time watching this game because I want to talk shit then it's like there's nothing to be said yeah because we lost the fucking sixers yeah is it set in yeah no last night it was like that was the official said this this fucking sucks yeah and it's like all i'm gonna talk it's where we are we're a loser town it's like we're not playing

15:34PFT Commenter:and we're just talking about that's cool we're talking about you know like twitch streams and

15:40Big Cat:and just coulda shoulda wouldas and and off off court stuff when it's like the playoffs are going on. Yeah. That's just a bad spot to be in. It's tough. Max, have you like when you were watching the game last night, did you have any thoughts in your head still of like how cool it is that you beat the Celtics? Or are you just fully... I mean, it's tough to think of like anything good. It's a Super Bowl. Yeah, they got absolutely smoked. There wasn't a ton of like positives while watching that game. Yeah, I'm just wondering if you've like completely moved on from the Celtics win because it was so...

16:10Big Cat:It was a big deal for you at the time. Have we completely moved on? Or are you still thinking that was awesome? No, I mean, it went right. No, I'm over the Celtics win. The Celtics win was fun, but now we're trying to win a series.

16:25PFT Commenter:You're in it. So the other game with the Timberwolves-Spurs, which was an awesome game. Defensive battle in the first half. Second half, it felt like the Timberwolves – I mean, the Timberwolves deserve all the credit in the world because they just – they play spoiler. I mean, they're injured, and Anthony Edwards is back. he wasn't 100 % you could tell he wasn't he actually blamed himself for a couple moments afterwards in the post game where there was like an offensive rebound sequence where he got blown by a couple times he's not 100 % but this team as a team they just like Julius Randle was awesome they figured out I know Wemby was incredible in all these blocks but it did feel like in that fourth quarter they figured out like how to get a couple buckets against Wemby and it was partially getting Rudy Gobert off the court but also keeping guys engaged with Wemby and then finding a way at the rim.

17:17PFT Commenter:And I love – like Terrence Shannon's like, I'm going to just keep going. I don't care. He's going to have to block them all.

17:22Big Cat:Right. Wemby got 12. He got 12 blocks. That's an insane stat that he had. Yeah. There are some truthers out there trying to point out some possible goaltends that were missed by Wemby. Fouls and goaltends was a big thing. One thing Wemby does, like he's exceptionally good at, sometimes he'll almost play like Matador defense where he'll let the guy go past him and he'll stop. and then his arms are so long that he can then recover after he lets the guy pass him on purpose to block the shot. And he was pinning some balls against the backboard, but the fact that the Wolves kept going back at him and they kept throwing up these shots and they were getting some of the tips and deflections from Wimby that would then lead to open shots.

17:59Big Cat:Their strategy is like, fuck it. We'll let Wimby block his – as long as they don't retain possession, as long as Wimby's not pinning them off the backboard, coming down with them, or grabbing them out of the air, We'll let him block a lot of shots, and we just trust our guys to make something happen. They're just dogs. They're dogs. The Timberwolves are dogs. They're pups. Yeah, they are. We're calling them the pups now. Yeah. A bunch of people online, they were like, hey, we appreciate your support for the Wolves. Call them the pups, though, because that's – if you're not like a – you can't say T-Wolves, but pups is like the next up-and-coming thing for them.

18:30Big Cat:And Chris Finch is an awesome coach.

18:32PFT Commenter:And like they just – yeah, I think it's – anytime you doubt them, I think the Spurs will have some answers. Wemby also shot like shit. I think he was 0 for 8 for 3. Did you see also that moment where it was maybe the best non-block ever where he almost blocked Anthony Edwards' 3? It was just like, how is this possible? But it doesn't matter because the Timberwolves have dogs and Terrence Shannon stepping up in the moment. Nas Reed. Nas Reed, Mike Conley, just guys that have been there, done that, and maybe not Terrence Shannon, but guys who are just not afraid. Jay McDaniels, they're not afraid of the Spurs.

19:10PFT Commenter:And they showed it on game one. I will say, too, the Spurs jerseys are just incredible. I know they're like borderline, like not even real because of some of the color schemes. But I thought the visual, not only the gameplay, but the visual of that game was sick.

19:26Big Cat:Yeah, the crowd. Again, the crowd looks awesome. It's not intimidating, but it makes me hungry. It looks like dessert. When I look at that crowd, I think I'm about to dig into like one of those grocery store cakes that they've got the layers that are dyed the different colors. I look at that crowd, I get hungry. 90s Taco Bell. Yeah, when I watch Spurs games, I get hungry. It's like a Pavlovian thing. I think it's going to go seven. I think it's two very evenly matched teams, two very well-coached teams. But that's why we don't count the Wolves out.

19:54PFT Commenter:You don't know where this is going to go with the Wolves. Again, the DiVincenzo injury sucks. Anthony Edwards hopefully can get to 100 % at some point in this series. but I like more than anything and this is going to sound like loser talk I don't mean it this way because I do think the Timberwolves like the way they play defense they can beat absolutely anyone it is like the last three years like you can't tell the story of the playoffs without the Timberwolves because they just every every big moment they don't blink you know what I mean like they just they're ready for every single battle starting with the play-in game include yeah but including game one last night against San Antonio and yeah I think Wemby will probably shoot better and they'll And I think Wood Castle, I think he fouled out.

20:35PFT Commenter:That might not happen. So it's like there's some adjustments. But I also think that Chris Finch is a really fucking good coach, and he's figured out a way to maybe not go to it all game, but like, hey, we can figure out ways to maybe score on Wemby when we actually need buckets late in the game.

20:51Big Cat:This is a game where dads will watch it, and they'll be like, you got to keep those blocks and bounds. Yeah. And swatting it into the fourth row is not doing you any good, son.

22:32PFT Commenter:Lost Hank. Listen, it's tough times right now for the show. We're all dealing with something right now. If we could do it again, we maybe wouldn't stack five days in a row. But it was a hell of a weekend.

22:49Big Cat:Listen, I'm actually doing okay right now because I follow doctor's instructions, unlike Max, which is when you come off a weekend like this, you have two beers. I had two beers last night at Showback Tavern. Well, you also didn't go out Sunday night. I had Showback Tavern. I drank two beers, and then I immediately pulled the parachute. I got out of there. I was like, I'm going to go home, go to sleep, get a good 10 hours of sleep in. So I feel fresh as a daisy. Max, on the other hand, refuses to listen to doctor's orders. And every time you're like, just have a beer, dude. He's just like, oh, that sounds so bad.

23:19Big Cat:I know it sounds bad, but that's what you have to do, Max. Your body needs you to taper.

23:23PFT Commenter:You have to do it. You have to do it. We're telling you. Actually, this is an order. We'll see. Okay. It's part of your job to drink two beers. Two small beers. Choose your own adventure. Cavs, Pistons. Cavs. Yeah, I got Cavs. I'm going to take Pistons tonight. Yeah, I'm going to take Pistons.

23:45Big Cat:I'll take Pistons tonight. I'm going to take Pistons tonight.

23:47PFT Commenter:Yeah. What are the odds? I think they're minus three and a half. They are. Yeah, I'm going to take Pistons tonight. I feel like I'm going off of just the fact that coming out of that seven-game series against a Magic team that plays really good defense, maybe it will feel a little bit easier to play against the Cavs. So it might just be like, oh, yeah, this isn't as hard as it was playing against this Magic defense. That's what I'm going with.

24:13Big Cat:The Cavs by three. Do you know a crazy stat I saw that since 2010, James Harden has played more playoff games than 28 NBA franchises?

24:25PFT Commenter:That's very surprising. Yeah. I mean, he is in the playoffs every single year. And it feels like every time he's in the playoffs, the series go deep. They go deep because we remember them. Yeah. We remember when it goes deep. I would assume the only teams that he hasn't played more than are like the Cavs and the Warriors and maybe the Celtics. No, the Spurs weren't in the playoffs. for a little bit.

24:45Big Cat:Oh, you said since 2010. Yeah.

24:47PFT Commenter:Oh, since 2010. Yeah, Cavs. Yeah, they missed a few.

24:51Big Cat:Maybe Heat. Yeah, Heat.

24:53PFT Commenter:Maybe, but they, yeah. But they've been, the last like five years, they've - A couple finals run. Yeah, they did do a couple finals. Still a crazy stat. All right, so we have Cavs, Cavs. Max and I are taking Pistons. Zach, you're the deciding vote.

25:07Big Cat:I think the Cavs will win this evening.

25:09PFT Commenter:Okay. So the Cavs. Memes, do you have a take?

25:12Big Cat:Who do you want next round, Memes?

25:14PFT Commenter:Oh, good question. We haven't advanced to the next round, but the Cavs. Good answer. And then sound like Hank. This is how Hank sounded after game one. I said we haven't advanced.

25:27Big Cat:Then you said Cavs. You want the Cavs. You're thinking about the Cavs. But if I could pick one to advance, it would be the Cavs. Let's get real. You're not losing this series. No. You're the Knicks. You guys have won how many games in a row by 25 points? You guys are never going to miss a basket again. That would be so cool. You have the best starting lineup in the entire NBA. Defense is on another level. You said that. I agree with you. You have Mr.

25:50PFT Commenter:Bing Bong. He hasn't been activated yet.

25:52Big Cat:But I didn't say the best starting five. I don't remember what I said on Sunday. Nothing that I said on Sunday counts. That's ironclad defense, yes. Don't remember doesn't count.

26:02PFT Commenter:That holds up in court. Thunder, Lakers. I think the Thunder are going by 25.

26:09Big Cat:Yeah. Thunder? I'm going to go Lakers, and I'm going to go – we get the first ever father-son double-double, which should – by the way, if LeBron and Bronny – if Bronny scores double digits, that should count towards LeBron's stats too. So, like, LeBron should get – like, okay, LeBron has 45 points. At least half of them. He made half of them. Right. Yeah, good point because Bronny had 10, so we'll add seven. Yeah. I think we should do a live choice for you right now because you made a request for a shirt for tonight, and you got two options. Mm-hmm. Do we have... I wanted to get a brawny shirt.

26:45Big Cat:There's two funny options. Oh, okay. I'm curious to see which one you go with. So Dom hit me up and he was like, okay, they've got a youth medium or an adult XXL. Love that. And I was like, those are two great choices. Very funny. All right. Let's do a little fashion show. You want me to put it on? Yeah. Which one do we think is going to look more ridiculous?

27:03PFT Commenter:Because I think that I have a choice. I have a choice. The XXL one looks more ridiculous. He wants me to wear the big one. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, double XL is the funniest by far. Because the youth medium, you're going to kind of fit in. I didn't mean that as an insult, but he will. He will kind of fit in that. Yeah, I'm going to make a pledge, okay?

27:25Big Cat:I think it's a youth large and an adult XL.

27:27PFT Commenter:Okay, I'm going to make a pledge, by the way, and I will stay firm with this. I think the Thunder are going to kill the Lakers in this series. I think the Thunder are just way, way better. No duh. I'm not going to hold this against LeBron because the Thunder are just that much better of a team.

27:47Unless, unless we get a fake LeBron injury.

27:52PFT Commenter:We get the LeBron injury and then, yeah, that just fits, dude. That just fits. Wait, come on, come show, come show, come show. That fits. Put on the big one. Let's see the big one. I don't think this fits at all. It does. It fits. It's a youth large, okay

28:11Big Cat:That one fits

28:14PFT Commenter:He's putting on the double Do you know what I mean, Hank? Like if we get, after the series Shams reports

28:20Big Cat:No, if he takes himself out game three And then sits game, like if they get blown out first two games Third quarter, game three He like hurts his arm or ankle or something And then sits for game four

28:30PFT Commenter:And then we get the report from Shams Like the next day saying if they had advanced, LeBron would have been out for three to five weeks. Is that an XL or a double XL?

28:41Big Cat:It's an XL.

28:42PFT Commenter:XL, XL. Okay, that actually looks good.

28:45Big Cat:I think you fit in every size. My body type just – I'm like an anamorph.

28:50PFT Commenter:Yeah.

28:51Big Cat:I'm like a goldfish. I expand to the size of the tank that I'm put in.

28:54PFT Commenter:Yeah. Yeah, you know what I mean, though, Hank, with the Shams suit? He'll be like, yeah, you know, if they had advanced, LeBron would have been out three to five weeks just to prove that it was really real. So that's my pledge, PFT. I'm not going to hold this series against LeBron unless he does an injury. Yeah, when they're down like 3-0.

29:11Big Cat:Okay, now what if Luka comes back like game three and then the Lakers go on a little run and the Lakers tie it 2-2? Then if they lose, would you then hold it against LeBron?

29:22PFT Commenter:No, because I think the Thunder are just better than the Lakers. I'm not going into this being a blind LeBron hater being like, oh my God, can't believe you lost in the second round. The Thunder are better than the Lakers. They are much better. They throttled them in the regular season. Yeah. And I just expect them to throttle them again in this series. Okay. So the spread is 15 and a half.

29:44Big Cat:That's crazy. Yeah. Disrespect for the goat. I'm going to pour honey on you goat. Yeah. I'm going to pour honey on you goat. And what do they call a goat's kid? What's the name of that?

29:54PFT Commenter:The kid of a goat is called.

29:56Big Cat:Oh, Billy. Oh, no. It's the kid. It's a kid? Yeah. Yeah. The kid. So the goat and the kid, that's disrespectful to you, goat and kid.

30:06PFT Commenter:What's a baby goat? It's a kid? Yeah. Oh, it is a kid. Well, that doesn't. The goat and the kid. They're probably going to have a podcast together. That's what we call kids. How's that work? Is a baby kid a goat? What are the other babies? I know a baby kid. A baby. I know Joey's a kangaroo, right? Joey's kangaroo. Yeah. That's probably the best one.

33:39Big Cat:I think it's just a cylinder.

33:41PFT Commenter:Yeah. Yeah. You don't got it, Hank? What about a net? Is that just string? Yeah. Like one piece of string. A lace. The laces. That'd be a very cute mascot.

33:51Big Cat:Like a little shoelace jumping around.

33:54PFT Commenter:Just one single lace. Hey, guys. Welcome to the Brooklyn Dix.

33:56Big Cat:I'm here to help y 'all win a basketball game. Yeah, you got to throw a basketball through me and win the prize.

34:02PFT Commenter:That was – I don't even know. We're having fun. We're having fun. We're having fun right now. We're having a good time. What other – so wait. Everyone's thunder. You're picking the Lakers to win this game? Not really. I'm picking the Lakers to cover. Okay. Lakers to cover. 15 and a half. And then you never know with Bronny. You never know.

34:23Big Cat:I'll pick the Lakers to win.

34:25PFT Commenter:Oh, okay.

34:26Big Cat:I don't know.

34:26PFT Commenter:You can't on Friday say, I don't know what I said on Tuesday.

34:31Big Cat:I don't care about being wrong about this.

34:33PFT Commenter:Yeah. I mean, none of us care about being wrong about this. It doesn't matter. Yeah. Yeah. You know what? Thunder by 35.

34:39Big Cat:Memes. Lakers by 26. Lakers by 17.

34:45PFT Commenter:Oh. I like the Lakers. You do?

34:49Big Cat:Yeah.

34:49PFT Commenter:Why?

34:50Big Cat:LeBron.

34:51PFT Commenter:LeBron's got to go all the way. He's going to go all the way? I just want him to go all the way. Is that so the Knicks could beat him?

34:57Big Cat:No. It's just a great story in basketball. Oh, yeah. You just don't want to play the finals. He's thinking finals. Yeah. Come on. No.

35:04PFT Commenter:LeBron. We see right through this. Or the Timberwolves. I do like Timberwolves. Dante went down.

35:09Big Cat:Would be also a great story if they made it to the finals.

35:11PFT Commenter:Okay. All right. Do we have any? Do we have any? Oh, I had one other story before we do Hot Seat, Cool Throne. Jacoby Brissett is holding out. Yeah.

35:23Big Cat:Maybe the weirdest holdout of all time. What's up with that? Well, when you're Jacoby Brissett, dude, you have all the leverage in the world. What are the Arizona Cardinals going to do? Go out and get another quarterback that will have you win four games next year? Jacoby Brissetts don't grow on trees.

35:38PFT Commenter:No, but credit to him. Yeah, he's just like, hey, I'm going to hold out. Okay. I think he is it is it the most non-consequential holdout of all time? I think so. Yeah, but so which makes it actually kind of cool. So I kind of want to be tuned in on this holdout.

35:53Big Cat:I admire his his confidence. What's his what's his contract like going into next year? Pulling that up right now. He sent a two year 12.5 million dollar contract going next year. So, yeah, he is making he's making some pretty good money this year for Jacoby Brissett. we're talking a base salary of 4.8 and signing bonus of 1.7 with up to two million dollars in incentives next year now the incentives who knows what they are they might not get hit but if you're jacoby brissette i think you're thinking to yourself what's the worst that could happen to me i don't have to be a starting quarterback for the arizona cardinals next year okay don't threaten me with a good time yeah like that's gonna suck next year's gonna suck Yeah.

36:36So I think he's like, maybe I can make a little more extra couple million dollars here.

36:41Big Cat:Or if they cut me, then I'll get signed to be a backup for like three million dollars on a team that might win.

36:47PFT Commenter:Yeah. The we had also brought up the so we're we're I don't know if you guys feel this way, but the combo of being on the West Coast, having the trip we're having, I feel so like removed from the world right now. So I don't really know what's going on. but so wake up barstool i usually am on on tuesdays there's a group chat for the tuesday show uh matt great producer of wake up barstool put this in the group chat i don't know what the context is but i thought i would just read it out loud because i think it's funny we need to hold this guy to it this is from dirtbag donnie he said in uh the end or middle of last season he said if jacoby brissett finally gets a chance as an nfl starter next year i'll fill the grand Canyon with jizz.

37:30PFT Commenter:He deserves it. Has always had talent, but a great pro, great teammate. Everyone loves him. I've been on it over 10 years. Check my tweets. He's a good QB. So, Dirtbag Donnie, this is a big holdout for you, dude.

37:41Big Cat:Yeah.

37:42PFT Commenter:Like, huge. Yeah, I mean,

37:45Big Cat:it's a lot of jizz. So, fill the Grand Canyon with jizz. The Grand Canyon is pretty big. I've been there, seen it in person, and the first thing I thought was, like, you'd have to nut about a million times to fill this thing up. I would say far, far more than that. Yeah. I don't think a million times puts a dent into it. It doesn't put a dent into it. So what he would have to do, this guy, dirtbag what? Dirtbag Donnie. He would have to get just really good at logistics and like start a jizz removal service. Like you know how restaurants have grease trap removal services that come and pick up the oil after they're done with it?

38:18Big Cat:Like this guy needs to start that but for fertility clinics and just be like, you got to expire jizz and then start like taking it by the truckload to the Grand Canyon if he wants to have any shot at all for it.

38:29PFT Commenter:All right. So I don't understand numbers past billion. What is a quadrillion? What is that one? That's a billion with four more zeros maybe. Yeah, but what is it? What does it go? Millions? We really need a math guy. We have billions, millions, billions, trillions. Then probably quadrillion. Quadrillion, yeah. 1 ,000 trillion. 1 ,000 trillion? And how many trillions is a billion? That's 1 ,000 billion. thousand billions okay got it uh it would take 8.3 quadrillion people to fill up the grand canyon with piss yeah so piss is so much more liquid i know i'm just trying to give us a baseline dude

39:12Big Cat:is somebody gonna be checking every load me is someone gonna be checking every load be like that look more like piss suck it back up all right fine i'll search what how long does it take to fill the Grand Canyon with jizz. It also depends on what kind of jizz. Like, are we talking about strictly human jizz? Are we talking like we can collect and farm the jizz from animals? Because then we've got a lot of, like, you know, factory farm situations. Just hook up milkers to the dicks of the animals. And then now you're getting, like, ant jizz because you get fish jizz. Like, if you open it up globally, I feel like we're now in a more manageable situation.

39:49Big Cat:I think you're looking. It's got to be. horses. Horses is where you gotta be. Of course. But you're going, ants are doing nothing. Do you know how many more ants there are in the world than horses? Probably like a quadrillion. A quadrillion. Probably a quadrillion amount of anches would equal one horse jizz. Can you look up that?

40:07PFT Commenter:Hold on. Look up. I'm gonna look up anches next, but I just wanted to I have an answer on the jizz. It would take one, wait, 296 ,000 100 ,000 296 hundred thousand wait how do I say that how do I say that 296 hundred thousand

40:34PFT Commenter:296 thousand years to reach to fill up the Grand Canyon with jizz if every dude on earth was coming into it our sound guy is looking at it

40:45Big Cat:like what the fuck did I walk into are you asking AI that because the AI is notoriously anti-jizz. Yeah, that's true. That's not a real... I do want to know... How much do ants jizz? Yeah, what is the... How many ants blowing ropes would it take to... He's going to put you on a list. How many ants would need to blow their rope to equivalent one session of horse gun? Ooh, I like this.

41:08PFT Commenter:The ants ejaculate is called spermatosa. So is ours, yeah. Oh, okay. I'm learning new shit every fucking second here. I didn't know there was a full name for it. Yeah, yeah.

41:17Big Cat:Spermatozoa

41:18PFT Commenter:So we're just being We're being really casual When we say sperm Yeah sperm We're doing the familiar Alright this isn't giving me This isn't giving me Ejective bundles of 50 to 100 spermatosa

41:31Big Cat:That seems light Wait so they got only 50 sperm That they probably go like Single file out there

41:35PFT Commenter:Yeah that's light They're just a dust in it

41:37Big Cat:But if their sperm is as big as our sperm It's not It'd be like them walking a dog Like their pet It'd be like the size of a dog to them Yeah, yeah. But it's not. They only come 50 sperm at a time.

41:51PFT Commenter:All right, so Dirtbag Donnie, you got to just watch out. Jacoby Brissett, hold out. It's going to be big. It'll be huge for you, dude.

41:57Big Cat:I mean, I'll be honest with you, Dirtbag Donnie. This seems like a tough problem to solve. Yeah. I don't know that you're going to be able to, like, in this lifetime, make enough people come.

42:09PFT Commenter:Yeah. But good luck. Also, shout out – we should have said it for the next Sixers game. Shout out to Timothee Chalamet, real ball lover. Yep. Didn't go to the Met Gala. Yep. Ben Stiller did. Yeah. Do we have a comment about Ben Stiller? That was going to be my hot seat. Oh, sorry. We can wait.

42:23Big Cat:We'll wait. We'll wait. Let me do an ad. We'll wait. I don't want anybody to steal Hank's whose backs are hot seat Cool Thrones.

42:29PFT Commenter:Yeah. Let's let me let me do an ad. We're good. You're right, Max. That was a deep sigh there, dude. That was a deep sigh.

42:37Big Cat:Yeah. It's been a long couple of days.

43:20Big Cat:My hot seat is me, Max, Shane, Dante, Jack McCarthy, Chef Donnie.

43:27PFT Commenter:Why?

43:28Big Cat:We were all Sunday night after we recorded. We went to the club, Loud Luxury, Eatin' Beats. Zach was there as well. And we took a picture together, big group picture. and I've seen people talk say the word mogging in the past month or so I kind of understood what it was didn't fully understand what it meant by dictionary definition and then Donnie posted this picture and it really all put into perspective what mogging was we were smiling we were just taking a nice picture Zach and I'm standing next to him bodied absolute bodied I was smiling just while we were taking a boy's picture. And Zach was standing next to me, ten toes down, mean mugging the camera.

44:16PFT Commenter:Not only that.

44:17Big Cat:Looked as hard as a human being could possibly look.

44:19PFT Commenter:And the craziest part is he did it on, like, expert mode because he was wearing tuxedo shoes for no reason. Yep. Glovers. And just fucking mogged you with the tuxedo shoes, which looked ridiculous, but it didn't matter.

44:33Big Cat:And just naturally doing the right hand motion. Yep. The power hand sign. And then the fact that Zach lost his glasses, that just makes him more powerful because now people see his eyes more clearly. And they're like, yeah, you dominated that picture. That was a great group photo. Special moment for the boys. You know, though.

44:50PFT Commenter:You know what you did.

44:51Big Cat:You knew what you were doing. You know what you did. Admit, everybody looked great. Just a complete domination. What were with the shoes, though? Did you do some loafers? I like wearing a good loafer out, you know? Yeah. I can't go sports coat because I get too sweaty. So maybe we go a little, we keep it a little less casual. Go a dress shoe. Yeah. Hey, do you have any tuxedo shoes? I have, I have a pair of dress shoes and I got a, I got a hopefully getting a tuxedo tomorrow. Well, no, we all do.

45:17PFT Commenter:All the boys got to get tuxedo. Yeah. No, I thought that was going to be like our group activity today. Max is good tuxedos. We got to go get tuxed. Respectfully pass. Okay. Yeah. You got, you got, you got bodied. Just bodied.

45:30Big Cat:Like truly, truly, utterly. And yeah, that's what you knew. You knew you were mogging me. You knew what that meant and you knew what you were doing. I thought we'd just take a good group photo. What a time. I didn't know we were mogging up. No one else did either. Smiles look so bad when you're standing next to a guy who's just fucking mean mugging. I might have just caught the smile at the wrong time. I might have smiled late. So then it's hard a time to smile on a photo sometimes. You had that shit on too. Admit it. I think a lot of guys have some great outfits. No, Zach. You had that shit on.

46:02Big Cat:I wear the same thing very regularly. How many black shirts do you own again? Pretty much just this with dress shoes. How many black shirts do you own? I got quite a few. You had to put a number on it. If I had to put a number on it, probably like 80.

46:15PFT Commenter:I'm just watching Zach. Zach just got a runny nose.

46:17Big Cat:I know.

46:18PFT Commenter:It's just so runny.

46:20Big Cat:Yeah, Zach, if we had to. I don't want to wipe snot anywhere. I know what to do. If we had to put a number on how many black t-shirts you have, what would it be? Probably like 80 to 90. Respect. Yeah. He just buys new ones. I got a book, too. Didn't you say you just buy new black T-shirts every week or something? They're$2. You know what I mean? So you just, it works out.

46:39PFT Commenter:Is there a$2 shirt you're buying?

46:41Big Cat:Yeah, I'm just a$2 T-shirt guy. Wow. So 80, 90, that's nothing. Over the course of so many months, you acquire them.

46:49PFT Commenter:Like being like, I have 90 T-shirts that cost me$180. That's a great deal.

46:55Big Cat:Oh, bar a steal.

46:56PFT Commenter:Yeah.

46:56Big Cat:I agree.

46:59PFT Commenter:$180 is like some people buy one t-shirt that's that

47:03Big Cat:yeah you go a lot of these stores you go out 40 50 bucks for t-shirt no that's just what are we doing yeah what are we doing what are we doing

47:08PFT Commenter:for that price you can get 25

47:09Big Cat:you get a case yeah

47:12PFT Commenter:oh yeah you did get mugged though Hank

47:13Big Cat:hard you look great in that photo Hank

47:16PFT Commenter:they didn't

47:16Big Cat:no not even close people are saying I look short too oh no oh man never wanted I took a picture

47:23PFT Commenter:next to our good friend Frank Kaminsky that one was tough yeah I feel bad for you guys. Hang out with tall guys. That's tough. He's acting hell right now.

47:35Big Cat:Michael Dorn with Chalamet. Yeah. You skipped the Met Gala. Went to game one. Ben Stiller did not do the same. I mean, it's as fake as you can be. It's tough. There's no good explanation other than just like your wife owns you. Wow. Like how can you – Like guys can't appreciate galas? Wow. Well, you can't be like I'm a diehard Knicks fan. Well, what if he's watching on his phone? You can go to the game. Like you're – it's fine and that's fine. Like marriage is, you know, compromise. You got to make compromises. But like you can't say anything other than just like – What if he was – like you watch Ben Stiller shows, right?

48:20Big Cat:Yeah. What do you watch? Do you watch Severance? Love Severance. What if he was out making severance instead of going to a Knicks game? What would you say? Totally understandable. What if the other Ben Stiller was at the game? Was that his innie or his outie that was at the Met Gala?

48:35PFT Commenter:Yeah, what if he went innie for the Met Gala, left, and then just watched the game?

48:40Big Cat:I don't know. If you have a work commitment, that's fine. That's life.

48:45PFT Commenter:He should have shown up with his wife just having a leash on him. That would have been a funny Met Gala thing. Look at me, guys. I'm going for a walk.

48:53Big Cat:Yeah. And like a little Knicks pin and be like, you know.

48:55PFT Commenter:Yeah.

48:56Big Cat:But yeah.

48:57PFT Commenter:He'd like a little C. They'd put down a little Sixers fire hydrant. He pees on it. Yeah. It would be cute.

49:03Big Cat:Well, respect to Shalom, man. He said, fuck the Met Gala. I'm going to game one. Did you keep that same energy for Travis Kelsey? What do you mean? There was a viral post going around where Sam Smith looked a lot like Travis Kelsey at the Met Gala to the point where people actually thought that it was Travis Kelsey showing up to the Met Gala like a black peacock dress that did make me laugh yeah it was funny my girl is just i we talk about every year it's so stupid it's so confusing and i just done with it there have to be great drugs inside though then stiller said bring it i know who i am whipped yeah that's i that might be his ending talking

49:43PFT Commenter:yeah i think so i think i think he literally he figured out the technology what is severance

49:49Big Cat:coming back probably never because it's going to take two years yeah i don't think they they didn't know if they're getting greenlit for season two to like the end of season one so it's not like they they weren't making it we're currently on season three or see whatever they didn't know they're making season three until the end of season they so they don't want it to be i

50:05PFT Commenter:kind of want to started doing season three i kind of wanted this to be the last season i kind of i

50:10Big Cat:don't want it it's such a good show it's a great show but if ben stiller is smart and he really want to spend more time at his galas uh he could just stop making the show and then everybody for a second would be like what the fuck you're not going to make season three but then it will be remembered as a great tv show and leave people wanting way more yeah if you walk away because like there's a high probability there's like one show that i can remember that actually ended in a way that fans were like yeah that was a good ending to this show game of thrones game of thrones with bram everybody was like i'm so glad that we were rooting for him this whole time and he's got the birds don't forget about that that's gonna be cool um but that's the only one i can think of besides that everybody's like their favorite tv show sucks the way it is yeah if i'm ben stiller i would just say i know we're working on severance turns out because you guys

50:57PFT Commenter:were very mean to me online we're not gonna do it henry lockwood shamed me yeah so you know what

51:02Big Cat:no no severance for you yeah hey why don't you go ahead with your uh little barstool production group and you make the last season of severance which i would actually love to see i would like

51:11PFT Commenter:to see that as well imagine though if ben what would you do if you woke up let's say tomorrow thursday morning and you have 100 missed calls like 200 missed texts and you try to figure it out it's ben stiller has done a press conference and he said i listened to part of my take on wednesday and i've decided that there's not going to be any more severance because henry lockwood

51:33Big Cat:was such a jerk to me i'd say he's soft and i think people would agree with me oh shit so you

51:40PFT Commenter:You'd be okay with the whole world being mad at you for Severance not coming.

51:45Big Cat:I don't think. I think that'd be misguided anger. I think they should be mad. That'd just be an excuse by still.

51:50PFT Commenter:What if you threw in some mental health right in your face?

51:53Big Cat:Again, soft.

51:54PFT Commenter:Okay. Okay.

51:56Big Cat:What do you think? Grow up. You're a New York guy. Would you ever get mad if any part of my take listeners got upset with you for missing a podcast? Like, I don't know, do something you love to do? Like golf? I mean part of my take listeners get mad at me every day That's true

52:11PFT Commenter:You live in mad You were born in the mad That's fine, bring it It actually would probably make you uncomfortable if they loved you Bring it on, I know who I am As Ben Stiller would say

52:22Big Cat:Alright PFT, your hot seat, Quiltrone My hot seat is the Toronto Maple Leafs They're on the hot seat They hired a new general manager yesterday By the name of John Chayka And they've lost Biz Biz said I'm out Now, it takes a lot for business to be out. This guy used to work for Arizona, for the Coyotes, and he quit one day before the playoffs start. He abandoned the team one day before the playoffs start after saying that he was not interviewing other places. He's also a guy that he got the team in trouble back in 2020. They made him surrender like a first and a second round draft pick because he was doing his own private combines for players outside of the NHL system.

53:07Big Cat:That rocks. But then he got caught doing it. That's awesome. Which was very legal. And then he lied about it. And so everybody was like, yeah, this guy, he left his last team in disarray. He's like a big stats guy, like a wonder nerd that rubbed all the hockey guys the wrong way. I saw one interview with a reporter saying that he went to go interview him inside his office and he walked into his office and he had six computers that were set up all around him displaying live data like it was the stock market. But it wasn't actually showing anything that was connected to hockey at all. He just had computers that made it look like he was monitoring graphs behind him.

53:47Big Cat:I'm in on this guy.

53:48PFT Commenter:He sounds like a fake business master.

53:51Big Cat:Yes. So Leaf fans are very upset about it. That same reporter, also I should say that reporter that told that story, sounds like he's got an ax to grind against this GM because at the press conference with the Leafs' ownership yesterday, he asked a question which was basically, I hate this general manager. I asked 20 general managers around the league what they thought of him. 19 out of 20 said that they hate the guy. Your comment. That was his question. Love that. So Leafs fans are upset. Biz is upset. This guy's got a hilarious track record of thinking he's the smartest man in any room that he's in.

54:26Big Cat:You tried everything else if you're the Leafs. maybe just trust the guy maybe if you believe that he's the smartest man what if he is the smartest man maybe all he needs is somebody to believe his lies with him and then you can accomplish great things I don't know, good luck they laughed at Sam Hinckley too they did, and that man is responsible for the single greatest sports victory in Philadelphia history right you did it maybe one day the Leafs will also win a first round playoff series

54:58Big Cat:was that something at me

55:00PFT Commenter:you're so slow right now you're so slow

55:04Big Cat:my cool throne

55:07PFT Commenter:no we weren't talking about you at all alright cool

55:09Big Cat:my cool throne is supreme debate so Big Cat just asked Hank what it was like would it be like if he woke up tomorrow morning and he had a hundred text messages and how long it would take him to like stop freaking out and figure out what was going on that was my experience And on Monday morning, I woke up. I had a text from Big Cat in the group chat that said, congrats, PFT, with absolutely no follow up to it whatsoever by anybody. And then I had to figure out what Big Cat is congratulating me for. So first off, I go online. I start looking up. Did something happen with the commanders? Do we sign Brandon Ayuk?

55:46Big Cat:Is Jaden Daniels? Is he getting married to a non-relative woman? And what's so exciting that Big Cat is pumped up about. And then I found out that Skip Bayless and Stephen A. Smith are good back together. Yep. And it's all that I've ever wanted since 2016 when they broke up. You're the very first person I thought of. Anyone out there, and it's crazy to me, like we're doing a lot of look back at 2016 moments, doing a lot of like, I can't believe this was 10 years ago today. Like this morning I woke up and I saw a tweet. It was like, it's the 10th anniversary of this banger. It was Donald Trump eating the taco bowl in Trump Tower on Cinco de Mayo.

56:21Big Cat:Dude, that taco bowl actually looks awesome. It did look pretty good.

56:24PFT Commenter:I would go for a taco bowl right now.

56:26Big Cat:So we're doing a lot of look back from 10 years. My big look back 10 years ago is Skip Bayless and Stephen A. Smith breaking up. Because if you never watch those two together on TV, as Skip said, like they reached almost dangerous levels of debate. Supreme debate is where they were. and I got I was fortunate enough to watch them up close in person I got a live show one time front row tickets to that boxing match and it was better than any heavyweight fight it delivered like these guys it was their destiny to get back together uh Skip got tired of beating up on cupcakes going up against Ernestine for too long so it's like they're they're going back I think they're just doing one show together but this is how it starts so like this is this gives me hope for anybody out there that's trying to do the parent trap get mom and dad back together They still love each other deep down Like we did it, we got Skip and Stephen A in a room together They're going to debate each other It's going to be magic And Skip's going to be like, I can't believe I can't believe I lied to myself And I said that debating Shannon was like Holding a candle to you, Skip Like you set me off like nobody else Stephen A.

57:30Big Cat:Smith said, it will be me and Skip Bayless Reuniting for the first time in nearly a decade He's got stuff he wants to get off his chest But what he really, really wants to get off his chest is me I love that that's an Artie Lang Joe Buck special right there I can't be any more excited if this is I'm pumped this is perfect television but we're kind of fucked well it's only one show that's what they're saying

57:59PFT Commenter:you think it's going to take a few minutes to feel it out or you think it's going to be right back

58:04Big Cat:I think that Skip Bayless is so bad at friendship or like interpersonal communication that I think what's going to – they're just going to dive right back into it.

58:15PFT Commenter:We need like a LeBron buzzer beater on Thursday night. Yeah. Something like that.

58:21Big Cat:To really get the kids going. To really get us going. Or a Brawny buzzer beater.

58:24PFT Commenter:A Brawny buzzer beater.

58:26Big Cat:Well, no, I don't know because Skip, he did the masterful thing of like taking the opposite route. He loves Brawny. He hates LeBron. What we really – I think the best scenario would be like LeBron scoring 48 eight, 11 rebounds, seven assists, but he misses one of two foul shots in the last 30 seconds, and the Lakers lose by one point. That would be the best possible scenario for the takes when these two get together.

58:55PFT Commenter:Yeah, agreed. Okay, my hot seat is first Jalen Brown. So Jalen Brown, we talked about it a little bit on Sunday because he was live on Twitch saying it was his favorite year. Playing basketball, talking about flopping. He then deleted the Twitch stream, which that will always work. And then in the last hour, he has. It might have been copyright. The Twitch stream? Yeah. His own Twitch stream? He was looking at highlights and videos. No, the NBA, they're actually pretty good with that. I think they actually want people to share their highlights. You don't know that for a fact. No, I do know that for a fact.

59:36PFT Commenter:Have you ever gotten a copyright for the NBA? Yeah. No, you haven't. Yeah, I have. No, you haven't. We have. Barstow has. When? I mean, many times.

59:44Big Cat:He's guessing. Many times. He's guessing. You can't just use. You can't. Like, they're cool with sharing highlights, but you can't just rebroadcast highlights for your own personal monetization. It's his own personal highlights. No, it was the game. He was just rewatching the game.

59:57PFT Commenter:Either way, he just.

59:59Big Cat:There's networks and other people involved. It's not just the NBA.

1:00:01PFT Commenter:He just tweeted, clickbait is like flopping for the media. Exaggerating contact. you all be safe out here. So true. What does that mean? What does that mean? Say it again? Clickbaiting. Clickbait is like flopping for the media, exaggerating contact, you all be safe out here.

1:00:21Big Cat:Yeah, it means they're using clickbait and they're reaching.

1:00:25PFT Commenter:But how is it clickbait when it's his own words?

1:00:28Big Cat:Because of the way that the article aggregators write thing in the clips that they use specifically. Context. There's missing context. So it's like the clipping accounts out there, they clip things in a way that removes all the background. So like when Jalen Brown is talking shit about the refs, actually if you had heard the entire context of that discussion where he was talking shit about the refs because he was upset about losing game seven, then it could have been in a better light. Is that what you're saying, Hank? Mm-hmm. But I don't think that it would. I think that like when he's talking, when he's complaining about the game, I think that kind of stands on its own.

1:01:06Big Cat:Yeah, I don't love this. I wish that he maybe took some time off. I think the feelings are probably still raw for him. And then if he had just taken a little time off and then after a week on the beach or whatever, decided he still is really passionate enough that he has to go on a Twitch stream, it might come across a little better. But doing anything with the wound this fresh, it never really works out for the person.

1:01:32PFT Commenter:I have a question.

1:01:33Big Cat:Big Cat.

1:01:34PFT Commenter:in the car ride for the five minutes that you were awake you said something about uh Giannis going to the Celtics yeah and then I replied oh that would be the end of Jason Tatum and Jalen Brown and then you kind of didn't reply after that did you think you were going to get Giannis without giving up Jalen you never know you just thought maybe you never do truly never a nice package of Sam Hauser and in in Shireman yeah we'll get you Giannis yeah you never know Do you want Giannis?

1:02:07Big Cat:Yeah, I mean, I trust Brad Stevens. If we get Giannis, I'm sure it would be good. What if it costs you Jalen Brown? That would suck.

1:02:17PFT Commenter:Knowing Hank, this is now going to happen. He's going to trade all the bench, and they're going to get Giannis, Jalen Brown, and Jason Tatum.

1:02:24Big Cat:I don't know. I love Jalen Brown, and I'm trying to see his side, and I kind of was trying to see where he was coming from with the best season of his career, where it's like, yeah you know you can't tie your your self-worth into strictly into results and that you know maybe like what are you saying is like you got to see a lot of the team grow and he grew a lot himself so he was trying to put a positive spin on the season it's just tough it's it's a tough quote given the you know the tatum injury and the fact that he was like the sole leader of careful it sounds like you're about to flop uh so i do try to see a sign i kind of see where he's coming from But again, like this fresh off of a series loss, it's a tough quote.

1:03:06PFT Commenter:Less than 24 hours.

1:03:09Big Cat:So and then the other side of me was like, maybe he is maybe he's trying to force his way out. Like, I don't know. Yeah. So I can I give you I don't think I think Giannis is like everyone says they're like that. He is the key. He is the biggest flopper when it comes to like trade rumors and stuff like he always says he's going to be here. He's going to be there. And then he ends up back in Milwaukee. I do think Jalen Brown and Jason Tatum will be on the Celtics next year without Giannis, but.

1:03:36PFT Commenter:You got to tweet that tomorrow. What? Giannis trade rumors is like flopping for the media, exaggerating contact. Y 'all be safe out here.

1:03:43Big Cat:Okay. Yeah, it's true. Yeah, it is. Hank, I have a spin zone for you. I kind of mean this about Jalen Brown. Like, is there a possibility that when he was talking about this being the best season of his career, like this was a season where he had to do it on his own and he had to lead the team and he was, maybe he was unsure of himself going into that year because he'd always had Jason Tatum as like, if the relationship was as good as you, you always tell me that it is that it was like, that's big bro. That's, you know, we've done, we've always done it together. I don't know if I can step up and fill the shoes of both of us on my own this year.

1:04:18Big Cat:And then he did that. And that's like big personal growth for him. The fact that he was able to do something that he was, he maybe doubted himself. You proved it to himself. Yeah. Proved it to himself. Yeah. That's what I was saying. I was trying to see it from his side. And like, again, And it's not the sign of personal growth should not be tied strictly to results.

1:04:34PFT Commenter:Yeah. Good point.

1:04:36Big Cat:Well said. Yeah, process. Really well said. Thanks.

1:04:39PFT Commenter:My other hot seat is George Santos because this, this JP Morgan shit, this guy is just addicted to lying. He's the, so they threw out his first, his, what do you call it? Lawsuit. Then it came out that he lied, potentially allegedly lied to jp morgan that his dad died yeah and then they found his dad and his dad was like i'm alive and then he filed another lawsuit so this is like george remember george santos just kept on going with the lies and just every week he just throw another one out there

1:05:13Big Cat:this guy he has to run for congress yeah that's the only way out of this yeah yeah i actually like

1:05:17PFT Commenter:i don't respect it because he seems like uh maybe something's going on not very all there but i I respect the fact that like he's like doubling and tripling down. I'm like, I'm just going to throw more lawsuits at this thing.

1:05:29Big Cat:I did love the like little details that he put in the lawsuit to make himself look and feel even better. Yeah. He's like, and then she reached down. She grabbed my leg. She's like, you must be a basketball player. Because he wanted just to seem like he was tall and strong and cool inside the lawsuit that he's filing for looking like weak. And like he was getting like assaulted. He's like, but also she respected how strong I was at the same time. Yeah, this guy, it looks like he's lied about just about everything that he wrote down. But I feel like this one's probably going to get thrown out too.

1:05:59Big Cat:The reason I thought this was always kind of fishy was because like J.P. Morgan, not sure if you're familiar with their game. They've got a lot of money. Oh. And they've got a lot of – when you have a lot of money, you tend to have a lot of lawyers. Yeah. And their legal team was like, yeah, we're not even engaging with this lawsuit at the time because it's like so clearly frivolous. My guess is they probably did some investigating when this guy filed his complaint with them. Also, big red flag. I don't think a woman has said cannons. She would not refer to her own boobs as cannons.

1:06:32PFT Commenter:Disagree.

1:06:34Big Cat:Okay. Nancy Pelosi.

1:06:35PFT Commenter:That you do. She definitely does. No, she doesn't. Oh, my. No. You don't fucking wear that bathing suit that Nancy Pelosi was wearing and not say to everyone, hey, the cannons are out.

1:06:45Big Cat:I think she says I'm bringing the girls out.

1:06:47PFT Commenter:No, she. No, no, no. Those aren't girls. Those are cannons.

1:06:50Big Cat:Dudes say cannon. Women say.

1:06:52PFT Commenter:Pelosi says cannons. Women are like tatas. Nah, Pelosi says cannons. When you have what Pelosi has, those are cannons.

1:06:59Big Cat:I think I could understand it in that lawsuit if he had said, like, rack. Yeah. Like, look at my rack. Yeah, I feel like they just call them the girls. Yeah, the girls. Not when you have cannons like Pelosi. The fun bags. Fun bags. Let me take my milkers out for you.

1:07:16PFT Commenter:Ew, dude.

1:07:18Big Cat:The milkers.

1:07:19PFT Commenter:All right, my cool throne, two of them. One is the Chicago Bulls because they might have hired the correct GM. We don't know, but they didn't hire Matthew Lloyd, who was their in-house, like, hey, this is going to be the Reinsdorf hire. They hired Bryson Graham from Pelicans and Hawks, and he was part of the trade. He was on the right side of the Hawks-Pelicans trade when the Hawks fleeced the Pelicans last year, remember? and also seems like a pretty good dude. He's a young dude who's worked his way up like he was getting people coffee 15 years ago, worked his way up all the way to the organization.

1:07:53PFT Commenter:I don't know. It might not work. It probably won't work, actually. I'll say that. But I like that they hired someone that wasn't just someone they knew and do the old look down the hallway and hire that guy. My other cools are on, I can't believe we've gotten this far in the show without mentioning it. It's not all bad for Philly. Congrats to Big Dom. Contract extension. partner. He got extended. He has a lifetime contract. Yeah, but he got no, but it was reported that he was extended.

1:08:25Big Cat:If he's on the books, how much is he getting paid? Why is every other NFL contract public with money and not picked on? Coaches aren't. None of them are.

1:08:34PFT Commenter:He's a coach. Good try though, Hank. He's not a coach. You don't want... I think his official title is game day coach.

1:08:44Big Cat:It's senior advisor to the general manager, chief security officer and game day coaching operations.

1:08:49PFT Commenter:So there you go.

1:08:50Big Cat:Now, you don't want to let Big Dom hit the open market. Nope. So you lock him up.

1:08:54PFT Commenter:This is why Howie's Howie. Because he signs guys before they hit free agency. He takes care of business in-house.

1:09:01Big Cat:You think Howie's considered trading Big Dom for the right offer? Because if you believe in Howie, Howie would trade Big Dom for the right offer. No, he wouldn't. He loves deals too much. Did Howie do it again?

1:09:13PFT Commenter:Of course. Yeah. You can't let him walk. Did you send him a text? Yeah, I was talking to him yesterday. Did you send him a congrats?

1:09:23PFT Commenter:Not yet. Wow. Selfish. I'll do it right now. Selfish. That's fucked up.

1:09:29Big Cat:He asked me a question that I didn't know how to answer. Okay. He said he wants to send me gear, and then he asked what jersey number. I was super hungover yesterday, and he said, what number jersey would you want? And that kind of broke my brain. Was he asking, like, customized jersey? I don't know. I don't know if he was asking for a customized jersey or, like, a player on the team's jersey. So I thought about it for a little, and I couldn't think of an answer, and then I forgot about it. I'm now just realizing that I never answered it.

1:10:04PFT Commenter:Can we draw out some options? Like, for what you could get, a customized jersey? But I don't know if that's what he was asking.

1:10:10Big Cat:He might be thinking of it like at a deli. Like the number two actually means the Devontae Smith. Yeah. Well, it's not. I know that's not his number. I'm saying like the number one at a deli is like the roast beef. So if you're like, if you're dumb, I'll take the number one. He's like, Jordan Malata, got it. Coming right up.

1:10:28PFT Commenter:I think you need to reply 99 meatballs. That jersey would rock. if you had a Philadelphia Eagles number 99 meatballs? I'm not going to ask for that.

1:10:40Big Cat:Why? What about one that says, all right, hear me out, nameplate sodas and then number would be two. We don't know if that's storage. Yeah, we don't. No, the two sodas is confirmed. For sure. It is confirmed.

1:10:56PFT Commenter:It is very much confirmed. 99 meatballs would be awesome. I don't know. I don't know. I would like to see 99 meatballs. Zach, finish us off.

1:11:05Big Cat:My hot seat this week is going to be pretty much fat kids. Because I don't know if you guys saw this. We've got some bad news for the fat kids. Presidential fitness test is back. And as soon as I read that headline, I was filled with past childhood trauma. And I feel bad for these kids who are out there right now learning that news. They shouldn't have done this. Why not? Because there's one day. the worst week of the entire year growing up is the year when you have to do a timed mile followed by hey do these pull ups that you know you can't do did you have to do pull ups at yours yes oh ours was you had the choice of either pull ups or push ups we did push ups sit ups pull ups and they wouldn't count the jump up so you just have to goose egg on the pull ups that was always heartbreaking

1:11:51PFT Commenter:I think it's goodness back

1:11:53Big Cat:let's get fit again but are they instilling fitness throughout the year or is it just hey take Take this test once a year. Remind – I don't know. Yeah, that's – like are they actually doing anything to support people getting in better shape or are they just using the threat of like being ashamed as a motivator? The fear of being like publicly shamed for not doing enough sit-ups. Because back in the day, I felt like we didn't do any mile training before the time mile. So like it wasn't like they instilled good values to get there. It was like, hey, today we're bringing out the stopwatches. Get out there and heavy breathe.

1:12:29Big Cat:and that's no good.

1:12:30PFT Commenter:What do you guys think you could run a mile in right now? Not right right now.

1:12:35Big Cat:Not right this second. Pretty fast. Seven minutes. I'm retired from running. Seven? Seven would be like seven flat? You're a beast, dude. One mile? Yeah, that would be fantastic. That would be what I said. A mile. You could do seven. In the set, like between seven and eight, yeah. Oh, that's it. I mean, I don't fucking seven and eleven, like. Seven, yeah. I don't have an exact second time, but yeah, between seven and eight. For one mile, I was going, yeah.

1:13:02PFT Commenter:I'm going to start doing a Chinese workout again. I've lapsed, but I was walking this morning, and there was legitimately, there was two Chinese people in the parking lot doing essentially my workout.

1:13:13Big Cat:That's a sign. Yeah.

1:13:14PFT Commenter:And they were elderly, and they looked ready to go. So it was a definite sign. Got to do it.

1:13:21Big Cat:Yeah, I feel like you should be able to run. We should all be able to run in the sevens. Sub eight. Yeah. I'm probably 9 minutes 55 seconds. Okay, that's good. I think I'm over 10.

1:13:34PFT Commenter:Grit week mile? We're tired. Grit week mile? I don't think I'm going to run.

1:13:39Big Cat:Some grit week sprints. I don't think I'm going to run. Yeah, grit week sprints? Okay, yeah, that's a good idea. Grit week sprints, grit week mile. Yeah, just like 200 yard sprint. Shuttle run used to be my shit. Yeah, you'd probably be good at it. I probably would. That's something that would probably stick to you until the day you die. Zach, you're cool, John? I'm a cool friend this week. are just going to be fans of the anime One Piece because Netflix announced that their One Piece remakes coming out here pretty soon. One Piece, the... Oh, no. I could see the mix up there. No, it's... Chicken Nuggets.

1:14:10Big Cat:Anime. Manga. What are you talking about right now? It's an anime show and a manga book series. It's called One Piece? One Piece, yeah. It's maybe the biggest one in the world, yeah. The biggest One Piece? Because maybe it's the piece. One Piece is the title of the anime. So how many seasons of One Piece have there already been? So there's like more than 1 ,100 chapters total. This new remake is going to be the first few chapters. I think it's like seven episodes, 300 minutes total. It's like a remake. Got it. You an anime guy? I dabble. Okay. He loves One Piece.

1:14:49PFT Commenter:Who? Trump. He loves One Piece? No, it's kind of Speed. Speed loves One Piece. Oh, this is a Speed thing.

1:14:57Big Cat:No, it was just a One Piece thing. But I guess – How did you find out about it? My little brother. He's a huge One Piece guy.

1:15:04PFT Commenter:Is he a big Speed guy?

1:15:06Big Cat:I think he's like a Jason Speed guy maybe. He's got respect for Speed's game. Yeah, yeah. You got to. So Speed is a – he loves One Piece? Speed does love One Piece, yes. Okay. Did that influence your decision to also give One Piece a try? No, I can't give this one to Speed. I'd have to give this one to my little brother, Nick. Okay. your eyes look so good today i appreciate it big cap yeah thank you they really are popping the glasses the glasses got to come back fast are you gonna buy new ones uh yes where i what i had just gotten those the other day because i got a new a new script so those were like brand new glasses oh so that kind of sucks but i have i ordered two pairs when i got those so i have another pair okay good but they're not they're not just uh what are they i just don't yeah i just don't like them too much whatever color it's just like like brownish oh no you got it i like those yeah those clear that was those are the mainstays and the alternates have to become the the new main i'll buy you some new glasses we're in a good spot i think i'm gonna find them at the strip club there i'm gonna send in i'm i think i'm gonna you're gonna go back no i can't go back but i might have to find some guys who frequent that place like hey keep a lookout yeah this is what they look like they will show up they gotta be there it would be a great story if somehow they

1:16:28Hank.

1:16:30Big Cat:Former Patriots wide receiver Stefan Diggs. Not guilty of all charges. Nice. Good for him. You want him back? Depends on the contract. Depends on what happens with AJ Brown. Maybe. He's a good leader. He's a good leader. Okay. So maybe. Okay. Not closing the door on a return. No. Never. Never say never. Never say never.

1:20:02Big Cat:in retrospect like planning out our second live show that we've ever done as a podcast on the heels of an all-time bachelor party in Vegas might have been the biggest, like, future you promise that we made that we would not be able to catch in on of all time. It does sound like Tyson in Tokyo before Buster Douglas. Yeah. Where you guys are like, yeah, we're just fucking the maids. We're just doing fucking drugs in Tokyo. And you're like, dude, Buster Douglas is about to knock you the fuck out.

1:20:28PFT Commenter:My wife always gets mad at me because this happens, like, all the time to me where it's like, if I have one thing to do, I'm like, why not just add another thing? And, like, I'm already out. let's just fucking do it all and then i always get in these situations where i'm like wait how many things do i have to do i'm so stupid that's when a woman's intuition's correct yeah yeah because i was like what are you talking about i'm there i'm gonna want to do this this yes yeah and then la everything's a fucking hour and a half from each other so you're like cool i'm just gonna sit in traffic and be like i booked too much stuff yeah yeah it is nice being out here

1:20:57Big Cat:though i got to see the ocean last night which there's something nice about just like looking at the waves. Yeah. Looking out into nothing for a while. Yeah. It feels good. Maybe that's just like the sign of coming down from the weekend. It's like I really like just basically turning my brain off for a little bit. But it was nice. We went to Shellback's Tavern last night. Shane ran into James Cameron out in the parking lot. Oh, shit. Which was great. Yeah. Did all we want to talk about is Avatar? Shane talked to him. So Shane was... I bet if you would have brought up Avatar, he would have been like, oh.

1:21:27PFT Commenter:Oh, yeah. Oh, you want to talk about 4 and 5? Or just like deep sea diving? Yeah, submarines. Yeah, just some submarines. Hey, dude.

1:21:33Big Cat:So we walked past him, and Shane had just been to the Chargers team store, because that's, like, the number one thing that he likes to do when he's out in L.A., is get, like, some Chargers gear. So he was wearing a Chargers rosary and a Chargers, like, full poncho. Like, bright blue. And, like, walked past James Cameron, like his hero was like, Hey, how's it going? But he was too nervous to just say anything, because he looked like a clown wearing the Chargers stuff. So I feel bad for him. Yeah, he's charged up. Was it the powder blue? It's a powder blue poncho, yeah. That's pretty rough.

1:21:59PFT Commenter:He's a diehard Chargers fan. By the way, are you staying at Mike McDaniel's house right now? I stayed there this weekend. Can we have one hard conversation about, and he's your very good friend. He was there last night. Yeah, I saw him last night. One very hard conversation. It's not that hard, but we're going to pretend it's hard. Yeah. He's going to get another head coaching job. Yeah. He's a very good coach. Absolutely. Things just didn't go well at the end. Oh, you got fucked over by Miami? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Fucked over. Yeah. We got to figure out the joggers situation. Doc. That's not a head coach.

1:22:30PFT Commenter:You can't be wearing the joggers. Brother, you're living in the past. What are you, Mike Nolan in 2010 trying to wear, or 08 wearing a suit? Don't be a bore. People forget Jack Del Rio also tried to do that with the leather jacket. Yeah, Shooter McGavin got fucking taken out with that leather jacket. Listen, if he wins games, he can wear a giant diaper. You just said it, though. No one will give a fuck. Right. Right. You just said it, though, because we're a big like we're not X's and O's guys. We're like, hey, this guy looks goofy and he's losing games. We got to fix it. The joggers, I think they can come out if you're winning games.

1:23:06PFT Commenter:But to start, you have to go maybe just a regular khaki. All right. He's going to be around Jim Harbaugh enough that he probably will be converted to khakis. Because Jim Harbaugh sees those joggers. He might punch him in the face. No, Harbaugh. This is exactly what he said. And I hope I don't give away too much. but I was asking him because I'm a 49ers guy. Yo, I used to watch Jim. Me and McDaniel used to watch Jim Harbaugh when he played for the Colts, like as kids. Right. And now it's his boss. Yeah. And I was like, dude, Harbaugh's your boss? He said he is the man. He is the man. And he said he's the most secure person he's ever been around.

1:23:46He lets McDaniel do whatever, so the joggers ain't going. Okay. All right. All right. Is he going to be upstairs? he's gonna be that's what i'm thinking you might see him maybe he just doesn't wear anything dude i think you go top flare i think underneath my suggestion is fools uh outcast wear the cowboy collar with the ump vest yeah like andre 3000 yeah and fucking in the stanconia yeah that would

1:24:11Big Cat:be sick i also i mean we know where to get a really nice like neon blue chargers poncho yeah or that in the booth that would be pretty good i'd be worried about him if he's in a poncho Would you wear like a Chargers luchador mask? Sick. I'm way on board with that. I'll go anything WWE. Yes, I'll actually push that aggressively today.

1:24:30PFT Commenter:Harbaugh is the man, though, and I do think it's going to work out very well. Because we've been doing this for a long-ass time. I think if we die in a plane crash tomorrow, I think maybe one of the first two lines in our obituaries would be like, those guys were Harbaugh. Like, Harbaugh liked those guys. That's sick. I'm happy that he likes us. That's sick. me happy that he's like for some we really don't really know how or why but he's like i like those guys can i tell you why i love him so much is i mean number one he turned the 49ers franchise around got us to a super bowl number two he's a milk guy yeah and i like how much time and he literally had a conversation with mcdaniel about getting a milk machine in the facility i love that wait wait a milk machine like you know those straw you remember back in like the cafeteria days where it's like that straw coming out and you just get milk.

1:25:18Yeah. He was like, we should get a milk machine. Absolutely. Yeah, you should. You should get a cow. Just like unpasteurized.

1:25:24Big Cat:I feel like having a cow that's just like out on the field. Harbaugh could probably be talked into like the raw milk phase too. No, I don't know. You know what? I feel like that would be a thing where you would feel that way and then it would get awkward. Yeah. Where you'd be like, what? Yeah. Pasteurization is the key to everything. That's the beauty of Harbaugh. Pasteurization, that's law. Yeah. And you'd be like, into it and you'd be like, that's right, coach. Yeah.

1:25:45PFT Commenter:Yeah, no, Harbaugh's like everyone's doing, you know, on human growth hormone, Ozempic, Retta, all this shit. And Harbaugh's like, no, all you need is some fucking whole milk. You need protein. You need milk. What is fun about now Mike working with Harbaugh and me being a Chargers fan is I can hit the theme music. That was our sound guy's phone. Hit my fucking music, dude. I put the glasses on. He's about to give a speech.

1:26:13as a 49er fan that's now a chargers fan because mcdaniel bringing back the who's got it better than us nobody very fun yes haven't haven't reached for that since about 2014 yeah very fun to just throw it out randomly yeah and bolt up i like saying bolt up it is so funny that the

1:26:31PFT Commenter:harbors have like a family saying they're like yo doyles they're just like their dad just runs around and just like, who's got it better than us? We're Harbaugh's. There's another family that goes, Harbaugh's one of these days, you're going to get yours. One of these days, someone's going to have it better than you. You're going to feel it. And it was. It was Super Bowl against the Ravens. Super Bowl 47. The other Harbaugh had it better than us.

1:26:57Big Cat:You think they get upset when they hear somebody that's not a Harbaugh, or at least not Harbaugh approved, saying that, using the family motto? Who's got it? If they were to hear some I know that they had their differences in San Francisco, but like, I don't know. You hear the York family. Like if the owner comes down and he tries to start saying who's got it better than us. Yeah, that's like. I feel like Harbaugh would just stare and be like, you can't say that. That's like when people try to rep gang affiliation. Yeah. Where he goes, hey, where are you from, cub? In the Yorks. So like, who's got it better than us?

1:27:26He's like, hey, you ain't got a good cub. Harbaugh's like, you got any skull?

1:27:30Big Cat:You got any dip on you? I didn't think so. I can't say that shit. Put a fat lip in and maybe. Yeah.

1:27:35PFT Commenter:I can see him doing that like a Twitch streamer saying it. And Harbaugh's like, who the fuck is this? Yeah, you can't say that. That's my word. With his glasses on. Those big readers looking at his phone. What is this? Why is this boy saying it?

1:27:48Big Cat:I'm looking forward not just to like, obviously I love Harbaugh. We like McDaniels. I like the combination of the two of them. They seem like it's going to be the perfect buddy cop. Completely opposite guys. But I think they'll be able to talk to each other. Because Harbaugh will respect anybody that knows football. McDaniels knows the fuck out of football. and I think he's also very secure in who he is too. So I feel like it's going to be a very funny – I need them to be mic'd up. I want like a documentary about them. The NFL has to have that coming. Yeah. Because either that – If the NFL was smart, they would do exactly – They would cut a trailer like a 90s movie with that like, he's a no-nonsense guy and he's an offensive genius that loves joggers.

1:28:30Why don't your pants reach your legs?

1:28:31PFT Commenter:your parents don't reach your whole leg or most trying to take off his off white tags like why the fuck is your tag still on your screen but I do love it it really is like it almost reminds me of that like a teacher that lets the kid be himself and that's the reason he's successful he's gonna become a butterfly exactly was that a sneeze by the way back there this is like a world war one infirmary right now where it's like we got guys with no arms we're gonna You know, we need more morphine in this room. I will tell you, poor preparation doing a Vegas bachelor party before. It's the add-on thing.

1:29:10PFT Commenter:I did the add-on thing. I was like, well, we're already going to LA. Let's go to Vegas.

1:29:14Big Cat:Was that actually a sneeze? Because I swear to God, when I heard that noise, I thought it was a toaster. It sounded like a piece of bread was done. Someone dropped something. Oh, okay. Is that Zach? Can we find out? Zach, what did you drop? No, it was a sneeze. Come here, Zach. Come here. Who is the most miserable here right now? Probably Zach. Zach and Max.

1:29:32PFT Commenter:Yeah, but Max was your bachelor party, so that's what I'm saying. Yeah, Zach. So that was a sneeze? I tried to hold it in. I really did. Wait, talk to the mic. Talk to the mic.

1:29:38Big Cat:I did try to hold it in. I didn't want to get out, and I apologize for the sneeze. It's okay. How are you feeling this morning? We're feeling. We're feeling okay. We're feeling okay. Did you drink last night, too? No, but I'm hearing a lot of things about that might be the case to recover and feel better. So maybe like four light beers as a recovery. Oh, brother, four light beers are going to be good. Four light beers are going to be texting people you shouldn't. All right, then maybe three. Maybe knock it down to three. Honestly, and this is, you know, I've been out of the game for 13 years, but if you want to go my old diagnosis, I would do a shot and a beer, you'll be right.

1:30:12And then a second light beer, you're going to feel 10 feet tall.

1:30:16Big Cat:Okay, so hit the trio. Shot light beer, second light beer. Yeah, one, two, one. We'll do. One, two, one. Got you. Yeah.

1:30:21PFT Commenter:Okay. I'll go light beer, shot light beer. He's just treating it like you're a doctor. Prescribing medication. It is medicine.

1:30:28Big Cat:I think you drink a quarter of the light beer, then you take the shot, then you wash it down with the rest of the light beer, then you get another light beer. And then maybe if your buddy comes by, you do a shot with him to get him feeling right. And I know you're going to want to smoke a cigarette, but don't. Don't do that. That will be the thing that turns it all against you. That pushes you right off that same cliff you just climbed off. Yeah, it's like drinking on antibiotics. Yeah. It's working against itself. Yeah, I mean, it's been quite the weekend. And then we got here and we had some very big NBA games that we are going to need to talk about.

1:30:59Big Cat:And obviously some very important games for Max. Philly got fucking. And he was just, he was like, I can't go out to watch him. He watched the game under the covers in his own bed last night. He couldn't even muster leaving the hotel room. Well, we were watching the Flyers in overtime. Yeah. And Big Cat comes in and starts talking shit to Tommy Pope. I didn't see they were in overtime. Who's locked in on the Flyers. flyers and big cat goes what's that shirt and tommy's like what he's like what the fuck are you

1:31:28PFT Commenter:doing with my shirt it was all time like i i watched overtime with everyone i was just like we i need the fire like i like kiddo was like do you have a bet on this like no but tommy's gonna punch me in the face and he's gonna have every right to do so yeah i didn't realize they were in overtime when i walked in we couldn't leave the hotel we couldn't leave shane's hotel until in between periods. Yeah. Where they're like, all right, now we can go to the Hollywood Bowl. Now we go. Now, get in the car. We were talking last night, too. Where are you at with the substation as a big 49ers guy? You know, the substation stuff hit me the way that, like, QAnon hit poor white trash, where I go, I knew it wasn't my fault.

1:32:12Yeah. I knew none of this was my fault. This explains a lot. Of course, the elite eat babies. Of course there's an electrical substation that's tearing tendons in my sweet, sweet red and gold. Because they shouldn't get injured anyways. Right. But then they had like real scientists come in. I don't know. But I don't know. I think like, I honestly, I think it would rule if they like, you know, NFL makes more money than what? An electric company? So move the substation. And then if the Niners went on a run, you would almost be like, like, I think it might be worth handling that just for the mental aspect.

1:32:49Right. Of everyone going, well, that's out. Now we can just fuck you up.

1:32:51PFT Commenter:And then you could have like a class action lawsuit against the electrical company. Santa Clara, you're going to fucking pay. I told you we had the guy on. I don't like that you said real scientist because the guy we had on the show was a real scientist. Okay. He was just, he doesn't have a degree. He is divorced. Got divorced and basically was like, now I'm going to just search electrical subwaves for a living. We also spent like, we interviewed him for like 20 minutes. And I think 10 of it was just talking about his in and out order. Because he's like. No, the guy's legit. He's legit. Yeah, he's legit.

1:33:22He's legit comes. It's all in the up and up. Yeah, I buy it.

1:33:25Big Cat:I think it's just a very simple fix for the 49ers. John Lynch would just pay money. How much could it cost to have just like a giant metal wall? Yeah. Like tinfoil wall. Put a dome around it. Between it. Like Chernobyl. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, pour some cement on there from a helicopter. I will go in on it. I'll pay for some of that brick wall. I think it has to be like tinfoil because like the aluminum that protects you from the waves. If you just put up like a giant, let's call it like a 50-foot sheet of tinfoil up there. And then you can just say that it's all taken care of. Because I do think at this point, like even if it's not real, now it's in their heads.

1:34:00Big Cat:And so that could be like, we actually work right next to an electric substation too. and me and Big Cat get kidney stones all the time. Yeah. It's nothing to do with our bad diet, but it being over 40. It's the substation. It's the substation. If you play football next to that substation, now it's a storyline. It's maybe like it's in your head 10%, and that's enough to make you fuck up every now and again, I think. Yeah. Or we could just wrap all the 49ers like baked potatoes in aluminum foil, and then they don't get injured.

1:34:27PFT Commenter:Well, you guys also, this is a very dumb roster construction idea that I've always had, but you guys have too many good players too many good players they get injured and you're like why are we losing all our good players yeah you have like a bunch of medium players and then when they get injured you're like all right fine we'll replace them yeah i mean dude the the fact that we were down to like sixth and seventh string linebackers yeah for the playoffs yeah was like dude this is crazy yeah guys that were off the street and then the kid one was just like come That hurt so bad that I was just like, what a gut punch.

1:35:02But beat the Eagles.

1:35:04PFT Commenter:Yeah, that's true. Also, if you're going to go out in the playoffs, the way you guys went out to the Seahawks, that was over before it even started. Listen, I thought the Eagles were going to do to us what the Seahawks did, which is just run up the middle, bully us, and beat the shit out of us. It sucks it was the Seahawks, but after that Brock broken elbow game in the NFC Championship game, It felt good to get a win injured over the Eagles in the playoffs. Yeah. So we can just go, all right, now we're even. Yeah. You got your lick back. Yeah. And then the Seahawks winning it was just like hell on earth.

1:35:38Big Cat:When you think about this idea for the 49ers, they play their first like eight to 10 games with their worst players. So like they get an entire off season where the worst players are getting all the reps at ones and twos. So your worst players get better. You play those guys until like October, early November. Then boom, they get hurt. Now your better guys are coming in there playing. I think it's genius. Yeah. You just go into Kyle's office and you go, flip it. I think he's taking the depth chart and just literally –

1:36:09PFT Commenter:Wait, that's upside down, dude. I don't care. Yeah. You guys are having suck up as your starting quarterback. He's good enough. Suck up.

1:36:18Big Cat:He's good enough as a coach. I think he could probably like eke out – if it's an NFL roster, even if it's like the third and fourth stringers, he could probably eke out a 500 record. Well, what was crazy is the record that we had with all the injuries immediately made me go, we're losing Salah.

1:36:32PFT Commenter:Yeah. Like we're losing Salah almost immediately because that defense, how well it played with having no Bosa. I mean, we drafted Williams to back up Bosa. His ACL ripped. It was just like we had no quarterback pressure and they still were a great – Found a way, yeah. Yeah, that Bears game. I think we got that Bears. That was the best. I think that Bears game. Even though we lost. And I was in Chicago over that. We were visiting Katie's brother. And I remember being at a gas station the next day. And the guy was like, I had my Niners head on. He's like, what the hell? And I was like, sorry, man.

1:37:05I was like, I think that might have been our best game of the season. And it was.

1:37:08PFT Commenter:Yeah. Well, that game, I walked away from it because the Bears losing that game like sucked. But it also was like, we were in a shootout. We were competitive in an offensive shootout. Like that doesn't happen for the Bears. Man, you guys are fun. This is fun. You guys have fun as hell. And you guys are going to be great. Commanders are going to come back.

1:37:24Big Cat:I think so. Yeah. We were just so old last year. Everybody on our defense was like 35 years old. It was crazy going into that season expecting anything from that defense at all. Given Jaden Daniels like a full, like let him heal, come back in and be the guy that he was. Yeah. Commanders are a team that you're like could be very fun. I think they could. It's all about David Blau or OC. I have no idea what he's going to do. He was an assistant quarterback's coach last year. That's crazy. And so he skipped being a quarterback's coach. We just jumped him up to being an offensive coordinator. And I think the theory behind it is like you've seen – I mean, McDaniels was in those pictures of the Redskins back in the day.

1:38:00Big Cat:That's crazy. Where it's like you got McVay, McDaniels, Shanahan. You got LaFleur, like Bobby Sloick. All these guys that want to be like very successful were in-house. I think Josh Harris, Adam Peters saw that picture and they're like, we can't let another picture happen to us. Sure. So we got to take our guy that's here right now and just give him a shot at offensive coordinator and see what happens. I mean, Adam Peters is the man. Yeah. Straight up is the man. He was in San Francisco for a long time, but before that, you forget, helped put together that Broncos Super Bowl team and before that, Patriots.

1:38:31He was like a Belichick guy.

1:38:33Big Cat:Yeah. He loves you guys. He loves every 49er. That's the only thing I don't love about him. You get a lot of retreads. Anytime there's a 49er that needs a new home, Adam Peters is like, I remember that guy. I remember that guy. And so now it looks like we're going to try to do that with Iyuk, but then the 49ers aren't going to let IU go. What's the deal with him? What do you know about IU? Because it seems like he, I'm keeping an eye on him, like he might be just actually insane. It might be one of those things where if you took a risk on him, it would pay off. You don't know if he's reset because I don't know, you know, I don't know him personally at all.

1:39:05I'm just a 49ers fan. But like the way it went was from what everything I've read, he just didn't rehab properly. And the 49ers are like, we're not going to give you guaranteed money. That's what always what sucks is when there's like a guy that they draft that gets really good. Yeah. And then there's that moment where he's like, I want my big, it happened with Debo, where he's like, I want my big contract. And then I think it's these agents that play these like social media games or it's people around them where they're like, like they're trying to fuck a hot chick. Right. Where they're like, be mean to her.

1:39:32Yeah. Just be mean, unfollow her. Yeah. Unfollow her and then take a picture with her and her friend. Yeah. And you're like, why are you doing this? Yeah.

1:39:39PFT Commenter:Speed by their stadium in the middle of the day. Pause your horn real fast when you drive by her house. Yeah, Let them know you're not thinking about them. And then be like, money on my mind. Oh, can you put obscure rap lyrics to you being not upset by the team? It just felt like childish. Yeah. And it also was like, there comes a point where it's like, well, you got your 29 million a year. So you got it. Now lock in. And when he didn't lock in, it was still like, I don't know. You guys were weird back there. Yeah. And then he gets injured and you're like, oh, and he's not even trying to rehab it.

1:40:09I understand why the Niners just aren't releasing him. You guys want to sign him. Right. Give us a sixth round. Yeah.

1:40:14PFT Commenter:that's all we want yeah i was wondering what would happen if like if john lynch just like went up to brandon i was like hey man i'm sorry hey like i'm sorry my bad yeah that's all i need like he doesn't have to feel it but like just say it you know like give the give the just just blanket apology just being like i don't even know what i'm apologizing for i'm sorry and brandon is like and he wants all i wanted brandon i said i'm sorry and then he turns around and he's crying he goes that's all i wanted to hear his agent he doesn't mean that he doesn't mean that brandon brandon he's not sorry i have texts from him that says you're a slut did you ask him what he's sorry for did he explain did he tell you oh you're sorry for what exactly did he pay for your your speeding ticket that is maybe the worst feeling in the world when you throw out a sorry and then and then you get back like what for oh and you're like oh i didn't think we were going with follow-ups i've been hit with that since i was a kid with my mom what are you sorry for and you go, I don't know, you're bringing this up?

1:41:11I thought the sorry button just worked all the time. Well, I didn't know you were going to be a rancid bitch about this. So I'd probably say I'm not sorry now.

1:41:18Big Cat:You're supposed to say I'm sorry too, back to me. You're not supposed to ask me my actual feelings behind this. I think if you guys got Brandon Ayoub and he like blew up, I'd be like he got awesome again. I'd be great with that. It is kind of like the girlfriend situation because Jaden and him played in college. He was like getting back with his ex. He was like, things were fun. Things were fun. He goes, oh, it's different now. I don't care There you got a kid. Actually, that's kind of cool. Brock doesn't make me feel like you made me feel like Jaden. Jaden, you made me feel electric. That corny white boy from Iowa.

1:41:47You call that a Dougie? You know how to really Dougie, Jaden. Yeah, I don't know. I am very excited to see what Mike Evans has.

1:41:57PFT Commenter:Oh, yeah. Because we haven't had a guy. I totally forgot to do a song. We haven't done. This is the part of the off season where you could throw out a name. And I'm just like.

1:42:06Big Cat:That substation Mike Evans hamstring. You be quiet about that. Yeah. You be quiet. I just like having a guy that's. Come and practice somewhere else. Yeah. That's so funny. They're going to actually make him practice at old Candlestick Park. Yeah. Where Candlestick Park was. RV Park now. Yeah. They go, this is safe. It's out here by the water. He doesn't even need to practice. I feel like Mike Evans, you just give him the playbook. He'll be fine. Yeah. I'm excited, though, just to have that threat of, like, being at the five-yard line and Brock being like, go get it. Yeah. And him just being able to leap over everybody.

1:42:33It's easy. Yeah. So, it is. I mean, there's like a lot of fun stuff. It was fun seeing Christian and Kittle at the show last night looking very healthy. Yeah. As a fan, you don't want to, but you're like checking them like racehorses. Yeah. I was looking at Christian's teeth. Like, you look good. No, but they were like both in great spirits and like healthy. And I was like, fuck you.

1:42:54PFT Commenter:Yeah. Yeah. It's weird to be at a show being like, I think Niners might be good. Yeah. I'm seeing a lot of good things. Let's play a game called, this will probably get aggregated because it's a shitty question for me to ask but I'm gonna ask it anyway yeah uh why haven't you moved to Austin why would I I know I just love this like turf war that goes on in the comedy world it's so stupid we're like it's such real housewives yes someone says one bad thing about Austin and it's like Austin rules did you hear what they said it's very fun yeah like going down there they got great Mexican food uh Shane has a really cool house that I can stay at fuck yeah you know what I mean uh cool I can yeah LaMare shout out LaMare up in the pool house yeah yeah so I if I want to go smoke a Blunt in the backyard.

1:43:34Lamar's there. WWE. Yeah. Have a swim. Play a little pool basketball. But I don't, all these people that are like, I always hated it when it was New York, LA. It's like, it's two different completely fucking, it's two different things.

1:43:47PFT Commenter:Right. But I don't know. I think Austin's fun. It's a fun place to visit. I'd never live there. Is there, is there like a, can you tell an LA comic right away when you see one on like, I mean, I guess you would know where they live, but like, is there a vibe that's just totally different? Yeah, for sure. I will say this. New York comics love the shit on LA comics but the props I'm going to give to LA comics they perform their ass off like they sell jokes we're out there just standing there tight just being mean just because we're stuck in a fucking locker with millions of other people sweaty locker but it is like LA's got great performers and shit but sometimes they're jokes you're like that shit sucks and you like watch it put perfectly You know, that joke's ass pool.

1:44:35That's fucking ass. You think it's because they don't have enough stuff to be pissed off about? I think it's because they're like, yeah, maybe. Yeah. Too much pool time? Yeah.

1:44:43PFT Commenter:I went for a walk this morning and it was like, damn, this place is nice. Yeah, that's why I couldn't live out here. Yeah. I would immediately fall off because I just would be like, do I want to go do spots or just sit in my backyard? Right. Right. Enjoy no humidity. Yeah. Just like a nice weather atmosphere. It would fucking rule. New York, you go outside and it's either crazy cold, crazy hot, and then there's just crazy around you. Yeah. There's just like a guy shitting in front of my apartment building and you're like, hey. But then you go to the comedy club, you go, I saw a guy shit. Yeah, right.

1:45:14Like, ah. So I don't know. It does pay off. But I get people that move here. But I feel also like if you're a New York comic and you move here, you're like kind of retiring. Or you're like going into the industry, like fucking going to dive into the industry. Right.

1:45:29PFT Commenter:I'm going to be in movies and shit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I don't follow anybody if they want to get out of New York and how expensive and fucking shitty. Do you still live in the city or are you living in Jersey? Yeah, hell yeah. Damn. I still like living there. I've got like maybe two or three more years before I'm going to have to go out to the Burbs.

1:45:45Big Cat:Yeah. Yeah, I feel like when you move to Austin, a lot of comics I've heard talk about, because I used to live there, and it doesn't seem like there's a lot of like real reasons to move out there. Yeah. It's basically like I want to move there because there's no taxes, And also, I think Joe Rogan might see me. Right? Like, if I perform enough at his venue, then maybe I'll just get dubbed the next guy. Honestly, if this probably would have happened like 15 years ago, you would catch me outside the mothership right now doing karate moves, trying to get Joe Rogan's attention. I mean, it's honestly not a bad idea.

1:46:18I've been breaking boards with one of my friends. Oh, hey, Joe. Were you just noticing my mongoose style? They'd be like, you need to come in, bro. They're very powerful. And I'd be like, thank you, sensei. Hiring people to choke out in front of the mothership. I would honestly say if the mothership wants to have the right rep, do the Cobra Kai line. Yeah. Where they go, fear does not exist in this comedy club, does it? No, Joe Rogan. Mercy does not exist in this comedy club, does it? No, Joe Rogan.

1:46:52PFT Commenter:Imagine if the mothership became a comedy club blood sport hybrid. Sick. Kumite. Where it's like, yeah, you do a set and then you got to fight to the death. I'll tell you right now, Tony Hinchcliffe would host the fuck out of it. Oh, that would be so sick. One of these guys is going to die. It's just like me and Judah Freelander. I'm like, Judah, I'm sorry I have to do this to you. He throws salt in my eyes. When I do my act, completely blinded. I go, dating's fucking weird. I'm blind. We'll get back to Dan Soder in a second. We are brought to you by our friends at Twisted Tea. Twisted Tea is a refreshing hard ice tea made with real brewed tea and 5 % alcohol.

Go get one today. and now back to Dan Soder. Dude, that Frank Dukes guy, that was that, he made everything up, but he thankfully, he made a great movie out of it. Yeah, but read his story. It's so funny. Dude, it's crazy. He was like, I was over there fighting in the deathbed. And they go, no, you weren't. No, you weren't, dude. Also being like, being like from, I forget where he said he was. Was he said he was in Thailand? Yeah, something like that.

1:48:35Like if you were Thai and you heard that story, you'd be like, no, that doesn't happen.

1:48:40PFT Commenter:Yeah, no way that happened.

1:48:41Big Cat:But it's such a great story. Like I want to give him credit for having an awesome imagination. Right. I'm happy that the movie got made. Like that would have sucked if the movie didn't get made. He could have made up the most boring lies about his life. Right. And instead he went for like, he wrote a script and then convinced himself that it happened like that. He should get some credit at least for like having a sense of like rising action. Like he wrote a perfect script. You know, Frank, you might be full of shit, but you know story. Yeah. He does. You have a good act one, a solid act two that builds into an act three.

1:49:11Credit to him. Frank, you're full of shit, but we're buying the script. That's great. I don't know. I also like a grown man that lies like a five-year-old. Where he's like, I fought in a karate tournament and people died. And you go, okay. Yeah, right. Then what else did you see? And then a beautiful girl said I was the best at karate. And I jumped and I kicked the bad guy.

1:49:34Big Cat:And then we made it into a movie and everybody loved it. Yeah.

1:49:37PFT Commenter:And I rode my dinosaur off into the sunset. It's like, all right, cool. Oh, cool, buddy. That's awesome. And also, I mean, if we're talking JCVD movies, shout out Bloodsport, obviously a classic, but I'm a kickboxer guy. Yeah. I want Tom Poe kicking the wall, making the dust fall. Dude, there's so many. Hard Target. Hard Target.

1:49:57Big Cat:Chance Boudreaux. Double Team. Double Impact. Was that the one with Dennis Rodman? No, Double Team wasn't Dennis. Double Team was Dennis Rodman, right? I was thinking of Double Impact where he goes, you of all people know I would never in my life were a silk underwear. You guys remember that one? Yes. I was going to say the F word what do you think I am he straight up says that in the movie dude I used to quote that to my best friend all the time you of all people should know I've never in my life where I suck on the oil that's the only Jean-Claude Van Damme line I can do I got another question that might get aggregated but I'm going to ask it to you anyways you were in the Epstein Files fuck yeah I was eating babies these fucking kids i'm i'm chock full of adrenochrome i could fly back to la from here that's what i do every time i'm in la if we have a guest on the show i'm like i better look up and see if they're in the epstein miles you might be the first guest that we've had that's been in the epstein uh i'm gonna tell you right now the island is uh let's talk about the shark door

1:51:01PFT Commenter:i think we've had others but yeah okay yeah i'm doing a mental rolodex of who we've had i want to say Jeffrey kept the place stocked with Capri Suns with Dunkaroos okay because if you're fucking kids you're eating like a kid no uh we were he wanted his assistant I'm eating lunchables I'm having myself so now it uh he lived in New York obviously and always He liked to go to comedy shows. So they sent him comedy seller lineups. So like me and Big J and Louis J Gomez, Dave Attell, Pete Davidson and I were on the same lineup. Like Bonnie McFarlane, Rich Voss, like all these New York legends. So when you found out that your name was there, what was the first reaction?

1:51:55I wanted the emcee to bring me up at the cellar as you've read his name in the episode. but was there ever no one liked it

1:52:04PFT Commenter:the audience did not like that but I'm saying like the actual first moment that you found out were you like oh fuck for a brief second everyone realizes all his emails Lewis I think sent might have sent just me a text that was like we did it we're in the update and then Pete Davidson sent me a screen grab of the list and he was like he's like iconic lineup in the Epstein files and I was like it is actually a really good lineup because Dave Attell was taping a Comedy Central show called like Comedy Underground on it was like a show on Comedy Central and Epstein got invited to that so it was all the lineups so you had the context I was wondering if like maybe like your agent called you and was like hey we gotta talk Dan we got a little bit of a problem yeah you are in the Epstein files because there's a way it could be phrased where you'd be like wait what yeah but But honestly, if I would have still been drinking, I would have been like, ooh, did I black out?

1:53:05Yeah, right, right, right. Because I'm such a people pleaser that if I found out a dude was like, what's up? You want to go hang out? I'm like, cool. You'd be like, yeah. Yeah. This guy, this rich guy loves me. And then you find out and you go, no. Oh, fuck.

1:53:21Big Cat:We were having a dinner last night or two nights ago. and it was our friend Jerry O 'Connell and then Dante, who's an employee of Barstool, crazy guy, funny guy, but he's like big conspiracy theory guy. And Jerry just looked at him and goes, Dante, you know, I think Jeffrey Epstein did kill himself. Just like at the dinner table and then Dante was just like, I lost so much respect. Yeah, he was so pissed off. But then I was like, maybe he was just sad. Maybe Jeffrey just woke up one day and he was like, I got the blues. He goes, I had it all. Yeah. Yeah. Look where I am. Yeah, he definitely was sad.

1:53:53Yeah, he was just sad one day. A guy that was holding blackmail over everybody.

1:53:57Big Cat:Yeah, I'm just depressed. You know, everyone gets sad sometimes. You do wonder if he had a cellmate, though, if the cellmate's like, hey, are they going to kill me, too? Yeah, yeah. I'm going to close my eyes and pretend I'm asleep. It's like when your mom would come in your room and you're like, I wasn't playing video games. I swear. I swear.

1:54:14PFT Commenter:I swear. The T-Rex breathing of the guy that did it on your face. You're like, I'm going to fucking kill me. Yeah, I don't know, man. That was like funny finding out all the names in it. And then people immediately being like, oh, it wasn't anything silly. It literally was just his boring ass emails over a decade. I'd love to go see a show. And then he didn't go, which is funnier because comics. Because I guarantee if comics found out he did go, we are insecure asses would be like, who do you like the most? Yeah. What bits did I do? He'd be like, oh, I got better bits. Epstein's favorite comic.

1:54:51PFT Commenter:Yeah. Jeffrey Epstein's number one guy. The shark door was crazy, though. It was. What else is it for? I don't know.

1:54:59Big Cat:Besides feeding people to sharks. It's crazy. It's probably for feeding people to sharks. It's for feeding people to sharks. Which is like you thought that you, the worst thing you possibly could have thought actually was, he was like a Bond villain. He was like, okay, I'm going to push, I'm going to have you stand over this door. But also kind of a dumb guy, reading some of those emails. You know what sucks about the internet? is it's we've all found out that bond villains are fucking nerds yeah like you watch a bond movie and dr no you're like this guy but then if he would have been like streaming or at a dave chappelle show yeah where he's like hello dave chappelle and he's like come on up here man this is one of my friends he's a tech billionaire yeah oh no and everyone boos him and he's like you're me like elon is a is a bond yeah he absolutely is and then he like i was gonna say that if you were if you had a modern day bond villain they would definitely be on social media because they would need everybody to like them for sure right they would be like i've got my own island i've got my my cage of tigers i've got my laser that's pointed at the moon but i just want people to like me online but really all i want is to go to the met gala yeah yeah that's all also elon being like james bond you're totally gonna die i bet you're real worried you're kind of a fucking nerd aren't you sean connery bond you don't get a lot of pushing do you he's like what do you mean usa you're a dumb fuck i'm from the uk honestly just become batman he has all the means dude he would get fucked up first fight but what

1:56:34PFT Commenter:about all like the armor and shit and all the gadgets he is built to be a bond villain yeah I think you nailed it. Aim a laser at the moon and go, everyone, retweet me or I blow up the moon. Everyone, be really cool. Send me your best memes.

1:56:53Big Cat:I want your dankest memes or I blow up the moon. Why are my impressions down 65 % this month? I'm going to point this at Greenland and melt it down. Why is everyone retweeting Joe Biden? Retweet me or everyone dies. Or I raised the sea level. It's five feet. Yeah, dude, it sucks. Social media has made Bond villains fucking thorts. I feel like for most people, they see a billionaire and they're like, if I had a billion dollars, I would just never be on social media. The whole point of having a billion is to escape from whatever day-to-day shit that people deal with. That's when you go and just disappear somewhere.

1:57:31Big Cat:But it's the opposite. Also, do you know how fucking likable Elon Musk would be is if he just reached out to a bunch of dudes that can't make their rent. Yeah. And he was like, hey, you guys, I'll pay your rent for like three years. And I got you season tickets to the Sixers. You know, these guys would be like, yo, fucking Elon, number one, don't fuck with him, dude. They would go like so hard in the paint. You just like go pay for like a frat, their beer for the year. Well, I have a long standing rule too.

1:58:04PFT Commenter:if you're a billionaire and you don't own a sports franchise, that's the whole reason you become a billionaire, is to own a sports franchise. It's like the sniff test of that guy you can't trust. So I love Nate Bargetsy, one of my best friends, one of my oldest friends. He is in talks to do some big stuff. I think he's looking at opening an amusement park. My phone call when I heard that. You need to buy an MLB team and bring it to Nashville. Yeah.

1:58:31Big Cat:Yeah. Nashville deserves an MLB team. Yes. And what you need to do is have old Dan Soder and his wife Katie Nolan up in the box making a couple front office moves. Moneyball. Moneyballing the fuck out of this. I'm telling you, she knows every pitcher in the league will get your staff cheap and running. The Nashville Nates? Yeah. The rule. The Nashville Nates. Yeah, the Nashville Nates. It would be. It really is. You have to correct them.

1:58:56PFT Commenter:If I had that money, I would buy it. How cool would that be? It's the only thing. It's the last exclusive thing. Who would you buy? I mean, I'd try to buy the bears. They would never sell. You don't know that?

1:59:08Big Cat:If you got Elon money? Like if you got Godfather money where you can make anybody an offer? Anybody. I'm literally saying like, what if Elon was like, I don't know if you guys know this, but part of my take is my favorite thing. I listen to it while I'm programming SpaceX. All my money is yours. So you guys each, you split Elon's money. Obviously, you're buying the Commander. No, no, no, no, no. Let's say you can't buy your own team. Wrong, wrong. I buy the Dallas Cowboys, and I shut them down forever. I would just sell the franchise for parts. Hey, Seattle, you thought it was tough losing the Sonics?

1:59:41Wait till I put the Seahawks in London.

1:59:44PFT Commenter:But that's, so let's say under this circumstance, you can't buy your own team. I think the move would be to do a Sonics or a Chargers. I'd buy like the Chargers and move them back to San Diego and just become the king of San Diego. And everyone's just like, this guy is the greatest guy ever. I'll tell you what I do. I buy the Lakers, move them back to Minnesota. Minnesota's got two motherfucking NBA teams. Buy the Ravens, move them back to the Browns. I mean, two Browns, competing Browns. We're literally doing endgame, unsnapping the fingers. I'm bringing sports franchises. Hey, Colts, you're back in Baltimore.

2:00:22That would be sick. The Brooklyn Dodgers would be awesome. Dude, the fucking Harlem Giants. I'm a San Francisco Giants fan, but I wouldn't mind seeing the Harlem Giants. Yeah.

2:00:33Big Cat:I mean, the Expos being back in Montreal would suck for me as a Nationals fan. But Montreal should have a baseball team. They really should. That might be the one thing where I understand why. Because French Canadians being like, what is this? You are good the first three months of the season. and then nothing. I mean, people, old heads will remember, baseball season was always, the stories on ESPN were always, the Expos are unbelievable. But it was May. And then they'd just get the shit kicked out of them the rest of the season. The best thing that ever happened to them was the lockout year because they were in first place.

2:01:08Big Cat:It was like, the Expos are going to win the World Series. Then they took it away. It's like, Expos would have won the World Series. They basically won the COVID championship. You know what I do with that same series? I go, Matt Williams would have hit, would have broke Roger Maris' record. because i think i think matt will make it up he had like 40 home runs at that time i was like third baseman for the giants would have broke fucking roger maris's record yeah yeah i mean

2:01:29PFT Commenter:it's covid you could just say oh yeah that team would have won i mean florida state they put uh they have a banner for basketball they were number four i think ranked number four when covid happened they have an actual banner we're trying to buy it that i'm just we're trying to become the house of the most like pathetic banners possible that's because we have jim Mercer actually, before he passed, gifted us the 2014 AFC finalist banner. Like the one that basically is like we lost in the AFC championship game. We have it hanging in our office. Dude, that's when McDaniel first took the job and when he went with Kyle to San Francisco after the Atlanta New England Super Bowl.

2:02:05I was at his apartment, you know, like the apartment they're running in San Jose. And we were just like eating dinner. And then at one point he goes, you want to see my losers ring? and they had the NFC Championship ring and he pulled it out. I was like, ooh. Yeah. So we keep this hidden because I don't want to look at it. Yeah. And you're like, yeah, I get it, but it's sick. Yeah. Yeah.

2:02:23PFT Commenter:I mean, you got to do like a gift card or something. Something that's, whoa, 500 Bustle Lowe's? Yeah. Oh shit, we're going to Chili's. I mean, if you don't use it in a year, it's gone. Oh, well, dude, that would be so funny. You lose the NFC Championship game and then he's going around giving you Lowe's cards. Hey, good luck. They're doing a lot with lumber now.

2:02:41Big Cat:He doesn't get enough credit. He did have a 28-3 lead in the Super Bowl. Yeah. That's hard to do. It gets the best coach of all time. Can I tell you what's funny is I blame myself because I was watching that in my apartment in Queens, New York, and I went, McDaniel's about to get a Super Bowl ring. And then Tom Brady pulled off the greatest comeback of all time. Yeah. I was like, oh, shit. Oh, shit. So, yeah. I mean, now I'll just have to win a Super Bowl with the Chargers. Yeah.

2:03:10PFT Commenter:You got the job. He is super pumped though, dude. Yeah. It's fun watching him. Well, Justin Herbert is the best. It's also, you have no idea. This is a guy I've known since we were 12 years old. He's in revenge mode in a way. Yeah. That like, you know how you know your middle school friends where you're like, yo, that dude wants to fight. Like he's like ready. And like, dude, he's just calling the plays and Harbaugh's letting him roll. Yeah. This is actually, I didn't even like connect it, but it's funny because the Justin Herbert Tua thing was a debate, obviously. Yeah, in the draft. Before the draft.

2:03:39PFT Commenter:and now you have like a common denominator where you're going to see who really could have happened. Yeah. Yeah. Whatever the stats are. Yeah. But I think it's going to be, yeah, I'm very excited. I'm very excited to go to SoFi and not be a Rams game. Yeah. And I'm going to call them the San Diego Chargers.

2:03:56Big Cat:Yeah. I'll move them back. There was a, there was a moment, I think when he got hired by the Dolphins, me and Big Cat were like, we like him a lot. We just don't know how, how things are going to go. If things go bad, are they going to get really bad? And he answered all those. Like he was, he was a good coach. through some really tough seasons where he did not lose the locker room. You can look at that team and say they all had his back at the end of it. So I feel like it was things that were a little bit beyond his control. People are acting like he didn't almost win a playoff game in Buffalo with Skylar Thompson.

2:04:23PFT Commenter:Yeah. Yeah. We just got to work on the cold. The cold is tough. I've never seen a cold guy. L.A. Yeah. He's in L.A. Because he – like, you know when you see someone on TV and you're like, that guy's cold. Yeah. And then he played in the coldest game in playoff. kids yeah people died i was there yeah people died in that it was horrible were you were you in a suite or were you sweet baby you think i'm freezing my tootsies out there me and big cat

2:04:47Big Cat:we went the dolphins get out of here we went to a uh patriots bills game back in like when was that 2021 2022 is mac jones it was earlier than that it was a shout out mac jones shout out mac jones mac 10 baby yeah he saw a dead body you remember that yeah that was crazy mac jones i saw so super

2:05:03PFT Commenter:week i saw we went to kittle's party and i brought my friend and mac jones there we were talking and my friend was so hammered he's like so where'd you go to college to mac jones like we gotta get the fuck yeah we gotta leave he's like he's like alabama you ever heard so we were at this game

2:05:19Big Cat:and it was like i think the wind chill was maybe 20 below it was seriously like 50 60 mile an hour winds where people would try field goals the kickers would kick in warm-ups and the ball would

2:05:27PFT Commenter:just fall straight it was like it was a game where they completed like one pass yeah the patriots

2:05:31Big Cat:just stopped running the football. That's crazy. It was like one of the coldest games in Buffalo history. Me and Big Cat were like, it's not that bad. We were in the suite. Yeah, we were sitting in the suite the whole time. Which was a great way to watch shitty football was in there. Yeah. But that Chiefs game, that was like, I remember seeing McDaniel and Tua before the game and be like, they're fucked. They're cold. They can't do it. They're just too cold. Sometimes you get too cold. I get it. I would get too cold.

2:05:54PFT Commenter:Sometimes football's that easy if you're just too cold. Dude, helmets cracked. Yeah, yeah. Literally helmets cracked on the craziest shit was me and my friend Chad who we all go to McDaniels games together because we all grew up together we were on the field with Mike's in-laws like waiting to say what's up to Mike and the temperature the thermostat on the field was doing like a time travel thing oh my god where it was going like back in time it was like it was so fucking cold the thermostat was like I don't know what the fuck temperature it actually is yeah it was crazy you had McDaniels

2:06:28Big Cat:wearing like six layers and then Andy reads on the other sideline and shorts. Oh my God. Loving it. Yeah. There's a good football. It's kind of brisk. Yeah, dude. His mustache. You remember his mustache? Icicles. It was crazy, dude. It was like we were in the parking lot. We like wanted to go tailgate to see what was going on, but it was like being in space. So you'd like go out and my friend drove my buddy Chad and his brother drove from Colorado. So they were there from Denver and we just get in his truck in warm up and then try to go back out yeah and like you would literally get like maybe 10 minutes out of the car and you're like fuck this you have to tie a rope around your waist i just like i don't want to get lost over you're floating away i do feel like cops would like arrest you or like threaten to arrest you if you were outside too long they're like hey listen you're gonna die

2:07:13PFT Commenter:you're gonna make somebody else but it's it's also like so the the bears playoff games is your second one the rams game wasn't as cold as that but it was like zero degrees and you you feel like it's like the manliest thing you can do is like getting prepared for that yeah like i'm going to war you suit oh you're just you're just putting on an extra pair of underwear dude it's also really funny because you really do you put on like uh almost like figure skating clothes you know fucking stay puff man you go this is so tight and then i have my puffy coat on like damn i'm hardcore and then when you peel off you feel like you climbed them out yeah yes you're like all you did was drink 10 beers and sit in a seat that's it i went back to that hotel in kansas city and like took all my stuff off and it was like like i climbed everest yes Yeah, you got a little sweat going from the car.

2:07:57Need some soup. But I was also furious because I lost a friend up there. Yeah, yeah. Because the Chiefs won and I was like, get me the fuck out of here. Oh, yeah.

2:08:05PFT Commenter:There's nothing worse than being. And they were mean, dude. Really? They were fucking mean. Bro, I went to that Bills game when the Dolphins lost and they were like Buffalo about it. They were like, hey, you guys played a good game. Yeah. Good luck. You know, like I know we're division rivals, but good luck. Thanks for coming out. Kansas City was like get the fuck out of here you're like stop being so mean they were like popping little bottles of champagne and they're like fuck you we asked to get you know McDaniel's wife was like trying to get to him after the game and we're like we're just like escorting her me and my friend Chad and we're like hey how do we get to and they're like what just like shitty and you're like don't be shitty don't be shitty I was like legitimately it made me hate the Chiefs and my buddy Rob works for the Chiefs and whenever I'm in Kansas City he's like we gotta get you to the Chiefs game I'm like no you don't and I don't want to go.

2:08:55You got two Super Bowls over the Niners and you beat my friend in the playoffs. Yeah. Fuck you.

2:08:59PFT Commenter:Yeah, that's a team that you don't want anything to do. I don't give a shit about the Chiefs. Are you taking a special soon? Yeah, in June for Netflix. Nice. Yeah, so it'll come out like probably beginning of 2027. What number is that special-wise? It's my third hour, like official hour. And is it all done? Like you have it? Yeah, that hour is done. Yeah. That hour is done. When you get to the point of the special, you're like, oh, no, because you have to keep doing it, right? Yeah. Well, I think I'm running it. I'm running it like I got more. I think I have like six more shows before we tape it.

2:09:34But it is one of those things where it's like your senior year of high school. Yeah. Where you're like, I'm ready. Yeah. I'm ready to go. But I love it. I think it's my best hour easily. That's awesome. And it's been like fun. I did my first theater tour, and it was like sick. Yeah. You're just like, oh, fuck. But you get up there, and you go, am I going to get back here? guys be cool let me do this again this is too much fun yeah but i'm gonna i'm taping in june and then i'm gonna hit like a bunch of tiny clubs to build a new hour oh nice and that's like the shit that you love as a comic it's like growing up i was always like dude i can't wait to do weekday shows at clubs and sell out and that's what's awesome like doing a monday and tuesday and like winnipeg yeah yeah this fucking rules and then after you tape the show as it's like

2:10:16Big Cat:going through the editing process do you still keep doing shows with that with that same material If you're doing like taping, you cut it. You like do like I know which jokes I won't ever do. I won't probably ever do my closer on this hour after I tape it. Okay. Because that was like the first joke that really was locked in. So it's been with me the longest and it's a real personal story. So I'm just like, I can't wait to tape that and then just be fucking done with it. Yeah. And taping it in the Bay Area is huge. Yeah. Because we're taping it at this tiny theater that's down the street from the liquor store where my dad worked at.

2:10:48PFT Commenter:Oh. So it's like real cool. Hell yeah. Yeah. Hell yeah. So it's like fun as hell. When I told the lady that owned the theater that she was like, I definitely bought booze from your dad. I was like, well, he was probably drinking on the job. Yeah. Fun thing about him, his coffee cup was probably filled with Bacardi.

2:11:04Big Cat:That's great. We were just up there for the Super Bowl. We had never like really, I'd never traveled outside of the downtown part of San Francisco. Oh, wait, that's the worst part? By far. Yeah, it's like when people visit New York and they're like, yeah, I stayed by Penn Station. Yeah, they go, Times Square is cool. And you go, that's not New York City. Yeah, yeah. But finally, like, branched out a little bit. I really like San Francisco. It's one of the best cities in the world. It's super cool. Like, it's beautiful, especially when you go up north. You go across the Bay Bridge. So, yeah, Bay Bridge is over to East, like, the East Bay to Oakland and stuff.

2:11:34If you go over the Golden Gate Bridge, that's right where I'm taping. Oh, yeah. It's in Marin. Oh, you are?

2:11:38PFT Commenter:I mean, Marin is, like, maybe the nicest place in the country. It's fantastic. Mill Valley is where. It's, you know, 10 degrees, 15 degrees warmer at all times. It's the best weather in the world. yeah it is sweatshirt in the morning t-shirt in the afternoon back to a sweatshirt at night that's perfect yeah it's the best weather yeah and it's just like you know i was there when i was really little my whole family's from the east my dad's family's all from the east bay and shit so as a 49ers and giants fan i just go there and i'm like angry if sports aren't happening yeah because i'm like oh it's such a so like i'm gonna go out there to tape the special but also probably gonna change

2:12:14Big Cat:to catch as many giants games as i can yeah it is an underrated sports city too in terms of just like success for just about every franchise every franchise has championships yeah except the sharks sharks don't have a stand they're gonna be good they're gonna be good they're gonna be good they're a fun team they were really fun with that fucking uh young kid they got macklin celebrini's unbelievable yeah because i'm you know i'm uh katie's family's a huge hockey family so i'm marrying into a hockey family which i never was a hockey guy so now i'm getting into hockey in a way that i'm like sharked up how no we're i'm a bruins okay i'm going bruins

2:12:48PFT Commenter:Macklin is awesome, though. But Macklin is like, my dad tried to get me into the Sharks when they first happened, when they first came out, because my dad was like, dude, Bay Area's hockey team. But I'm Bruins, baby.

2:13:00Big Cat:People really do care about the Sharks, though. They love them. There's a diehard San Jose Sharks. Because it's also San Jose. Everything else, even though the Niners are in Santa Clara, obviously San Francisco claims them. But San Jose is like, this is our fucking team.

2:13:13PFT Commenter:Yeah. Zach, you got a question for Dan? Get over here. we introduced Zach to Dan hey you got no glasses oh shit here he comes oh there we go Zach I love Zach's little trot

2:14:26Big Cat:So you're going PvE? You're going to play over his environment? I go PvE, baby. I think that's what this world needs. More PvE. Less PvP. But the PvP, that's how you tune the skills. You know what I mean? You don't think it's so good at looting, Dan. We need you PvP. Nah, dude. PvP, I'm going to tell you right now. I'm just going to start shooting everybody. I'm going to get mad and scream. I killed a guy one time because he ran up on my group. And as I was killing it, I was like, why are you making me do this? With my prox mic. Why the fuck are you making me do this? Dead. But yeah, Ark Raiders is number one.

2:14:57And I'm excited for the Wolverine game. And I'm excited for the Halloween game that's coming out. Also, college football 27.

2:15:04PFT Commenter:Yeah. I didn't understand anything you guys just said. But I think I get it. I appreciate the enthusiasm. Well, you play college football. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Love it. So this is something that you. So I run a dynasty, as you do. you always pick a shitty team so I had Toledo when I bought college football 26 I started with East Carolina built the Pirates their logo is so big in the middle of the field it's sick also their uni combos, unbelievable built up East Carolina went to Minnesota because I wanted that big 10 action turned them into a dynasty went to Colorado found myself in Syracuse for a cup of coffee end up at UMass Amherst.

2:15:48Well, you went backwards went backwards because I wanted to build them up because I knew it's 30 years and then the dynasty closes. Right. So I was like year 26 and I'm like, let's build up Amherst before I leave UMass Amherst. Dude, my last game I'm in the playoffs against Washington. I hold him to a field goal. I'm on the three yard line. Give it to my four star running back. He runs in, fumbles at the goal line. You know how you challenge and you get the fumble back? Wouldn't let me challenge. Game over to Washington. End of dynasty. That's like the ending.

2:16:22PFT Commenter:How long did you sit there with like a blank screen being like, what just happened?

2:16:25Big Cat:Mouth open going. That is literally the ending of Friday Night Lights the movie. I'm getting goosebumps thinking about that. The end of an era for you too. So let me tell you exactly what I did. Fuck that noise. Restarted the dynasty. Colorado State Rams. ram down baby i'm in my fucking second year i've won a title but i've gotten two mac mountain west championships yeah and your next i see i'm sure that you're gonna you're gonna look for some revenge against the huskies like you're gonna you're gonna try to take jobs to put you as a rival like you want to oregon you're looking at that oregon job now i'm telling you right now my first thing i did on custom schedules i want washington week one yeah you got it and i

2:17:04PFT Commenter:beat the brakes off what what happens when you uh try to explain it to katie what you're doing because like that that she is such a supportive wife but has there ever been a moment where his wife but he is you got to do a press conference being like listen like all credit to my wife she literally will do i'm a great recruiter i got her i recruited her she'll do a thing where she walks by in our apartment she'll walk by the office while i'm playing and she goes what we're doing we ramming up and i'm like oh yeah we just took we just took out fucking uh boise state on the blue field start calling her miss katie like miss katie we just got a three-star recruit out of Mississippi.

2:17:40But you know what it's funny is, and what I did while I was running the dynasty is when McDaniel was in Miami, he goes into the office at like 2 a.m. sometimes. So if I was up late playing, I would call him and tell him about my recruiting class. I'd go, dude, I got a five-star running back that I think is going to bite on Minnesota. And he goes, east to west or north to south? I go, pure north to south. Guy on break is, and he goes, yeah, that's what's up. One time he goes, you know I love speed. That's how I'm going to recruit. he goes that's his speed i go 94 he goes you know i love speed it was fucking great yeah i think i

2:18:13PFT Commenter:had a different experience because i had a newborn during covid and i would tell my wife be like listen we got to be we got to like be attentive today we got a big game against baylor yeah i don't really care like we got a we got a six-month-old there's a human yeah yeah but it's covid outside and i was like but baylor but baylor's good yeah and i'm the oc at texas tech and I'm trying to get a head job. And we're in Waco. Yeah. I'm trying to unlock developmental skills. Yes. Do you start as OC? That's what I always do. No, I start as head coach. Oh, I start as OC, then try to work my way up. I like that.

2:18:44That's fun. Because also what you do is you get guys into the league so your pro potential is through the roof.

2:18:50PFT Commenter:And it's just fun to be, because if you start as OC, you can, at a small school, like I went Toledo to USC to Texas Tech, all as OCs, and then got my head coaching job. Do you want another game? It really feels like you earned your head coaching job. Do you want to know the gayest shit I've ever done playing NCAA? When Shane, like back in like 2017, when Shane was on the road with me, he loved NCAA and I had 2014 and the Xbox 360. And I would do defense or I would do offense. He would do defense and special teams. And then we'd both recruit. And then one time we were on the road together and I think we were running a dynasty with Colorado.

2:19:25And I jokingly, but did buy two Colorado polo shirts. and we hit the road and I threw him one and I just remember Shane looking down and going, hell yeah. He was like, this weekend's about to be over. That's not it. We were in Boston at Laugh Boston and he just was like, dude. He's like, dude, all we got to do is play NCAA during the day and do shows at night. It was fucking sick.

2:19:48PFT Commenter:That's not, by the way, that is not weird at all because I used to dress up in all the gear. It's so fun. All the gear. It's so fun. Christmas this year. I was getting, the teams were sending me the gear. Really? Yes, because I was streaming them. Sick. So they would literally send it And then because it was during COVID too, the team accounts would be tweeting my results. And there would be a shitload of people being like, we don't fucking care. We're like, this is loser shit. I'm like, come on. It's so fun. So fun. This year for Christmas, I was doing my dynasty at the time I was at Colorado.

2:20:17Okay. And Katie was like, I almost bought you a coach's jacket from Colorado. And then - You had the visor? Dude, but she didn't. And I came in the room and I was like, just moved us to Syracuse. She's like, you guys told me this. I almost ordered you a jacket. That's part of being a coach's wife. You got to be getting up and moving all the time. So what's funny is the whole reason I did UMass Amherst was I got the offers and I go, we're not going to Troy. UMass Amherst? And she goes, I'd love to go home again. We go back to Massachusetts.

2:20:49PFT Commenter:Oh, that's fucking great. Who wins when you play Shane? Well, the new one, Shane got me when we streamed. Okay. Because you know what I did? I changed passing and it fucked me up so I was only throwing shallow, I wasn't doing little drops in and he, first game was close second game we streamed for EA he beat the piss out of me and then I got him later in the night but he was drunk because we did a show at Helium in Philly went back to his place and we were playing and I beat him and he was doing the Shane thing he was like big man big man beating up on a drunk man and it just took away from the wind where I was like fuck this dude I'm going to bed this sucks and he's like got you but he's nasty he's good at it but what's funny is people watched me lose that stream and I was on the road and like people were talking shit to me like dudes I worked with like guys that were emceeing for me were like yo I heard you're garbage and so we were at Arlington we were in Addison Improv in Dallas and the emcee was like yo I brought it with me and I was like put it in the green room yeah that's right now I want the fucking smoke yeah and I ran we did the randoms I was duke and I beat the fucking tits off him and I was like that's just to let you know yeah this is what the fuck we're doing yeah you're not that guy pal yeah you'll watch it on tv then you get in the room your energy man in the arena yeah exactly yeah real big man up in the bleachers fucking come on down here get slapped

2:22:22Big Cat:around a little where do you stand like like spamming the plays though because like we would sit down when we played i got i got my ass kicked but then i was like i think i can put together a decent game plan if i run these same like three or four plays so i have one of a mutual friend of shane and i's des he's nasty at the game and like i won't play him because i just know he's nasty but then i had like six plays for my dynasty that i was like yeah these are you just learn them yeah and then they worked once and then the second time he was like oh you're gonna go to the middle pick oh oh you're gonna throw deep pick yeah it's like fuck yeah and then you get like little kid frustrated yeah yeah when your plays that always work don't work yeah i don't want to do this

2:22:59PFT Commenter:anymore you just keep running it no i mean i the chat used to just kill me because i would i would spam i just ran shark wheel over and over every time i got in a bad spot shark wheel but uh and it made me feel so bad about it like you just run the same plays over i'm like dude i'm playing winning football dude he was calling me ruPaul because i kept running drag routes he's like oh look it's ruPaul's drag route and then he just fucking have a linebacker pick me i was getting so bad oh hey RuPaul you running one of your drag races oh man so good so much fun all right uh I got one last question this has been awesome dude I love having you on thanks for having me Roback question rhoback.com promo code take 20 off your first purchase qzips polos hoodies joggers shorts roback.com promo code take Zach come back out here for the Roback question I know you got another one Zach loves video games loves video games I love getting anyone to talk his language like when you guys were going back I think there was a PVE, PVC yeah that's like

2:23:55Big Cat:it's like are you playing against the computer you're playing against other people PVP means other players are shooting at you on the level, PVE is there's like giant machines that you're trying to kill I usually play, so I do the I run the flight simulator and I usually just go PVE because you can design these like really intricate missions you feel like you're doing Top Gun but then I get into a PVP environment and I'm just getting shot with missiles I never hear them coming. Yeah. I'm dead like the second after I take off. It's a big boost to my ego, honestly, to play PVE all the time. Yeah, because you go, I'm getting something done.

2:24:27Yeah. So I like the teamwork. Yeah. Hey, we killed that giant robot. Yeah. That might be our future. Yeah. That might be what we're headed. We're training. So this might be good to take out drones. Right. You have to shoot their fucking turbines to get around.

2:24:40PFT Commenter:Yeah. Have you ever played video games so late that you missed something waking up? No, but I have played video games in the evening to where I'm late to shows. Oh. Which is hard to be at a comedy club and be like, why were you late? And immediately, if you're in New York, you go Subway. Yeah. But the real answer is Colorado State. I'm sorry, the Rams are down 17 in Lincoln, and you think I'm not battling back? What about a pause until I'm done telling my little stories? Get the fuck out of here. All right, Zach, go ahead.

2:25:11Big Cat:So, Dan, I was curious. If we do ever get Grand Theft Auto 6, it's kind of on the horizon. We may never get it. If we do get it, are you hopping into role play or are you hopping into the story mode? Story mode first. Okay. And then I'll do role play. Then you hop into RP? Yeah, then I'll do an RP. But story mode first for sure. And when it comes to RP, are you more of like a – you want to run an honest business like a car dealership or a taco truck? Or are you in the streets? Are you kind of – I'm for the streets. Okay. That's good to know. I'm for bank robberies. I'm full Michael. Just let me go.

2:25:39Let's go rob some shit. Yeah, I don't want to run an actual business. It always reminds me of the Rick and Morty where he does the simulator and then he takes it off and he goes, you went back to the carpet store after you got cancer? That's what you're thinking. Like, why are you working at a job? Dude, go get fucking nuts.

2:25:54Big Cat:These guys are streaming, running a videotape store. Yeah, like a blockbuster. Yeah, yeah. Old school one. Yeah. Yeah, we're slinging tapes, cotton candy and snacks right now. Good for you. How's business? Business is good. We recently we were waiving fees early on, but like we're kind of behind the eight ball when it comes to income. So we're going to have to start hitting guys over the head. I like that. And also, maybe he's Rob a bank or two.

2:26:13PFT Commenter:You also are built, are you just, you're playing a game where you just dig a hole? That has been completed.

2:26:19Big Cat:Memes dig to the depths of the earth in that hole.

2:26:21PFT Commenter:Really? Yes. They were just digging a hole. We'd walk into our studio and they'd just be in the corner digging a hole. There are certain areas of video games that I just don't go. But I will repeat, like, I'll probably play college football till the day I die. Yes, absolutely. And I'll run a dynasty and people go, I'll see you online and get that smoke. You go, no, because you know what I'm doing? PVE. I'm playing the computer. I'm running my dynasty. Because playing against humans, it pisses you off. Because they will spam. Right, exactly. It'll spam. And I just want to play. And I want to be able to shut my brain off and pretend that I'm the head coach of a college.

2:26:57Also, I got this freshman Edelman at the end that is just absolutely ripping. And he's a 67 overall. But the guy has 15 sacks. Sky's the limit. So what are we doing with the dev trade, baby? Are we up to a fucking real problem?

2:27:13Big Cat:And you can't walk away from those. Those kids, they came there not only to win football games, but to become men. Exactly. And that's your most important job as a coach. You'd feel bad if you abandoned your team like that.

2:27:24PFT Commenter:You need to get Katie to start baking stuff for the team, but it's just you. Miss Katie, bake lasagna before the game. Oh, Miss Katie's jambala. Team dinner. Team dinner. It's just me, Katie, and our dog. She's a booster. Our dog's the booster. Miss Moodle. We have the whole team over before game night. Dude, I am absolutely pitching this for like a Saturday. Team dinner. What are we doing? Wingstop. Team dinner. Let's go. It's all about camaraderie. Yeah, dude. Now I'm legitimately excited to fly back to New York for my diner. Yes, yes. This is like dirty talk for me. where I go, who do I have next?

2:28:08PFT Commenter:Yeah. Because there is nothing worse than being away from it for a few days. You're just like, God damn it. And you know what? I was in the thick of Mountain West competition. Because I beat number one LSU because they beat me in the playoffs. And then I beat number three Michigan. And we jumped into the top 25. And now I'm just house and Mountain West teams. I think we got New Mexico. I think we got the Lobos next.

2:28:28Big Cat:It's batting practice now. Yeah. It's just like, let's just get the stats up. Yeah. Yeah. You got to take it one week at a time, though. That's how you get caught. It's a game caught, right? A trap game. A trap game. Absolutely. Dude, it happened to me with Air Force. Yeah. It's a rivalry game. I'm thinking, what are they running the option? Next thing I know, I'm cursing up a store. Yep. Also, have you ever considered, like, do you do the thing where if you're getting beat by an Air Force in a game, you're probably favored by, like, 25 points? Have you ever unplugged? You know what is the sign of maturity?

2:28:58Taking the L's.

2:28:59PFT Commenter:Yeah. Taking the L's. Because I was a reset guy until my mid to late 20s. And then I was like, no, life's about taking a else. It's also not fun to go undefeated every year. No. It isn't. Like, the hardships is actually the fun part. Yeah, we lost. We have a loss right now. And I'm like, we're going to battle back. Yeah. We lost to Nebraska in Lincoln. Yeah. We're going to battle back. It took me, during COVID, it took me legitimately, like, nine seasons to win a natty. How fun is it, though? It made it so much better. It made it so much better. You know what's funny is, when I play, I smoke bowls.

2:29:26And we're in an apartment building in New York. And there's new neighbors across the street. And they're very active in their windows. so I know they just watch me open my little window and blow a fucking cloud of weed smoke out. And then they can just see me sit on my couch and do the lean forward when I'm losing. So I've had to start shutting my blinds. Yeah. Like I'm doing fucked up shit. Yeah. Because I'm like, I don't want these people watching me.

2:29:52PFT Commenter:You need to put like a sign up being like, I'm actually a very successful person. I'm not joking, Big Cat. There was times where I was like, I want to like text them my IMDB. Yeah, right. And be like, I work. Dude, I have a job. I'm like very good at it.

2:30:06Big Cat:This is me relaxing. I thought you were going to say that. I want to text them and let them know like, hey, we're actually 7-1 on the year. And by the way, I respect Nebraska for their win. But I will see them in the playoffs.

2:30:17PFT Commenter:Oh, man. All right. Thank you so much, Dan. Appreciate it. Thanks for having me on. Everyone get ready for the special coming out. What do you think? End of the year? I want to say probably January, February, 2027. Well, hopefully we see you before then. Fuck yeah, dude. Come through Chicago. Absolutely, I will. All right. Thanks, man. Yeah, dude.

2:32:16Big Cat:Breaking Moose.

2:32:17PFT Commenter:I have received a text back from Big Dom before Max because I congratulated him. You still haven't done it. And he said, thanks, bro. I appreciate you, Paizan. Love that. Did he offer you a jersey? It's all respect. Also, Max wants 99 Meatball.

2:32:36Big Cat:What would you take in a trade? What would have to be for Big Dom, Max? If somebody called up Howie. Untouchable. Untouchable? Untouchable. If somebody calls up Howie and they say... Nope. You get Josh Allen. It's actually a three-way trade. You get Josh Allen, George Kittle. No, thank you. Trent Williams. Thank you, but no thank you. For Big Dom. And, oh, wait, hang on. The Chiefs want to get involved in the straight, too. They want to send over Patrick Mahomes. So you have Mahomes and Josh Allen. He's 0-1-1 in his last Super Bowl. Okay. So nothing. Untouchable. Yes. No thank you. Okay. I would love to see what the contract is then for an untouchable guy.

2:33:17Big Cat:You think Dom's got no trade clause? It's probably just, yeah, he's never going to be traded. He knows that.

2:33:25PFT Commenter:All right. I texted him saying 99 meatballs. Let's hope we get that It'd be great Great It'd be a great jersey FAQs Bow and Row 2

You're asking, are we doing questions for the show tonight?

2:34:55Big Cat:into uh to the nightclub john summit to john summit yep and uh yeah walking in once not even when we're at the bar or at at our table it was like when you go into the dark to go into the club and all of a sudden i'm like i can't really see that well or hear anything right now once like two of your five senses start to go away then you're like yeah i'm too old to be here my body

2:35:16PFT Commenter:just gets into fight or flight mode yeah i i you guys can tell us from your perspective but i feel like pft and i were like if you go on a bachelor party and like either the dads come or like you know a brother-in-law or someone and it's like hey look we're a little older we're gonna hang until we probably shouldn't be hanging anymore and then we i like my favorite time was we drank all day on saturday i had a great time drinking all day saturday then by 1 30 i was like yeah you know what i'm ready to go home and i don't feel bad about it i don't think you guys cared either at all yeah right no it's a great time we let the pups go on yeah so that was the john summit moment was yeah that was definitely uh i i need to we need to go yeah we get out of here we just we're just too old for that you don't want to be that guy at the club uh what trends would the pmt

2:36:07Big Cat:show have participated in or blasted that occurred prior to the show beginning would you all have been t-bowing in the office where there have been a version of the harlem shake oh curious to know where you all would have been participating or drawing a line on the tomfoolery uh we would have definitely done a lot of planking would have been day one we would we were playing somebody would have gotten injured yeah i agree so we definitely i got another answer though well i think i think we would have done some serious work in the parkour community i think we would

2:36:35PFT Commenter:have had some awesome battles with collecting beanie babies like big time battles like getting you know what was that what was the one that was like the queen elizabeth one or the diana

2:36:49Big Cat:princess diana oh yeah yeah the one that like the one that elton john like blessed like we would

2:36:54PFT Commenter:have started it as a bit and then we would have gotten very serious about it and our studio would

2:36:59Big Cat:have been full of beanie babies yeah have you seen that picture of the divorce where the judges that That would have been awesome. Yes. When partner take breaks off, we'll get some Beanie Babies.

2:37:06PFT Commenter:We're like, we're just doing it as a joke. And then like PFT being like, Hank, look, I got this Beanie Baby you really want. And then Hank getting a bunch over the top. It would have been cool. Beanie Baby podcast. Yeah, Beanie Baby. Maybe we should just do that.

2:37:18Big Cat:What about like if we were in New York when hip hop was coming out for the first time? Do you think we'd get like some cardboard boxes and go out break dancing? I'm going to say no. I think maybe.

2:37:29PFT Commenter:I'm going to say no. What do you got, Max?

2:37:31Big Cat:Ice Bucket Challenges.

2:37:32PFT Commenter:we did do that

2:37:35Big Cat:not on the show

2:37:37PFT Commenter:yeah we did what other challenges still the one I think about all the time that I wish we had maybe we still can do it in the office that one that was during COVID where people were trying to walk up the pyramid of milk crates and just like dying that was awesome I wish we also had gotten into the golf cart smashing into people thing which still time on that always made me laugh

2:38:07PFT Commenter:shrink um oh no how do you are you enough of a golfer now that you can say shrink to me no no

2:38:15Big Cat:i'm joking but no i'm i'm i'm in the shrink right we're in the shrink we're in the shrink blast yeah big time yeah how do you balance busting each other's balls and supporting each other any hidden stories about supporting each other supporting each other any hidden stories about supporting your about supporting your bros uh i mean if there's ever real life stuff we obviously always have each other's back i think it's also just a kind of implied we have each other's back yeah yeah you don't have to like i think it's just ball busting is just kind of just never stops. There's not really like a...

2:38:55Big Cat:It's fun. A ball-busting time versus...

2:38:58PFT Commenter:Imagine if we did a... We should start doing that, like a nap time or like once a month, just be like, all right, guys, let's support each other. That would be awkward. It's so hard. Yeah, that would suck.

2:39:08Big Cat:Everybody go around the room saying something

2:39:09PFT Commenter:that you love about memes. No, but everyone in this room has been through shit and like known that we're all there for them. So yeah, it's like an implied... It doesn't need to be said. It's just known. which is, I think, the best friendship you can have. I think if we were always like, hey, man, I support you no matter what, it's like, what are you talking about? That would become ball busting. We do trust falls. Yeah, where you'd be like, wait, what are you doing? Are you doing a bit right now? Where's the camera? Why are you fucking saying that? That would 100%. If I walked up to you, Hank, tomorrow, I was like, hey, just so you know, I support you.

2:39:41PFT Commenter:You would 100 % think I'm fucking.

2:39:43Big Cat:What's happening. Right. And honestly, then if Hank was like, thank you, Big Cat, I really appreciate it. I would think he's doing it to me. Then you'd be like, that's kind of like sus that you're going to let another man support you like that. And it would just turn into another thing. The honest, yeah, the like the like honest sappy moments would last probably about two seconds. We should try it.

2:40:04PFT Commenter:We should try it once. Just once.

2:40:06Big Cat:Nah. All right. Last one. I got a question for Zach. If you don't find your glasses from the Gentleman's Club, are you going to buy a replacement or stop wearing glasses in memoriam of the lost glasses? We're going to get a new. I got to replace a pair so quick. We can't do memoriams. I appreciate that idea. I'll probably be equipped with a new pair of lenses very soon. You don't appreciate that idea. What's up? You don't like that idea at all. No. Actually, you're right. No, I don't. In memoriam, I would never do that. I'm getting glasses up pretty quick. So the day one list as a part of my take would remember the time that I left my wallet in Cleveland.

2:40:43Big Cat:And then the Cavs went on to win the NBA championship. And that was, we said maybe the wallet got things. because I could have gone back to get it, but I sacrificed it for the city of Cleveland. Do you think that there's a chance that since you left your glasses in that cabaret, we should bet on the Golden Knights to win the Stanley Cup? I'm in for that. I'm not opposed to that, but I don't want to take any credit away from the Golden Knights. I would like to give all credit to them. Okay, yeah. What do you got? Nothing. You guys got to stop saying cabaret.

2:41:13PFT Commenter:What?

2:41:13Big Cat:It was a strip club.

2:41:14PFT Commenter:No, you're the one who brought cabaret in our lexicon. You guys kept saying cabaret. You did. Oh, cabaret. They're going to wear pasties. I was like, oh, man, it's cabaret. But no, it's strip club. Big Dom said done. That's perfect for my guy. 99 meatballs. Zach, do you think we could sell potentially? Let's maybe do this because I think what we've learned from this is maybe we need to get like four or five extra pairs of glasses. And glasses are expensive. I don't know. I'm not a nerd. So how much are glasses?

2:41:45Big Cat:I think the visually impaired transcends all sorts of archetypes of men and women. Right. But so just the lens. So you get the frames. Are we talking with the eye test or not without the eye test? Without. So frames probably$100 and they charge you like$50 to put in the blue light lens. Like$145. Okay. Catch a deal.

2:42:02PFT Commenter:All right. So we need to buy like five or six pairs of these. And I think maybe we should put a T-shirt in the Barstool Sports store that just says, I lost my eyeglasses at the strip club. Because that could work for people. Strip club or cabaret? Cabaret parentheses strip club. Because that could work for anyone who's like, I would wear that as a guy who doesn't have to wear glasses. because then everyone would see the shirt and be like, that guy rocks. He lost his glasses at the cabaret.

2:42:24Big Cat:At the cabaret.

2:42:25PFT Commenter:At the cabaret. The shirt club.

2:42:28Big Cat:I feel like we wouldn't sell too many of those shirts, but it would be funny for the people that would buy them. We should give it a shot. He could do that. To the three people who might get those shirts, they'll look great on you.

2:42:38PFT Commenter:Okay. All right. We'll get that shirt up there. I mean, we sold not an intercourse check mark. So why not? Zach's Angels. Yeah. Okay.

2:42:47Big Cat:I lost my glasses between two tits.

2:42:49PFT Commenter:how about that oh that would be good i think i lost the glasses because of the two what if it was what if we what if the what if it's uh like the big dog shirt so we make like a a big dog that looks like zach
