The weKIN Rundown
Censored Voices, Historical Ponderings, and Unlikely Victories: A Journey through Time, Triumphs, and Trials
Ever pondered over the life of the explorer who rounded South America's tip, or the mastermind behind iconic American music like Rhapsody in Blue and Porgy and Bess? We do, and we share our thoughts on these historical figures and trends. But we're not all about the past; we also celebrate recent victories, like that of Bailey Teepa Teepa Teru, an autistic boy who stunned us all by winning a national golf tournament with borrowed clubs and little experience.
But it's not all seriousness - there's plenty of laughter too. Our chats run the gamut from Adam Sandler's movie character IQs, to our post-comedy show fast food indulgences, and even potential fast food sponsorships. And, of course, we invite you to join us as we brainstorm for a Halloween-themed episode, and share a heartwarming reflection on our sibling relationship. Tune in for a fun-filled, laughter-packed episode. I'm your host, Drew.

One, two, three, four. Hey guys, what's up? This is your host, drew, and welcome back to another episode of the Weekend Rundown.
Speaker 2:And this is your host, daniel, and we hope to have something fun and exciting for you guys, something to keep your attention.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we kind of took the week off. I was out of town. We'll talk about it a little bit.
Speaker 2:Also something that doesn't get censored.
Speaker 1:Yeah, something that doesn't get censored. We got censored. If you listen to us on Amazon, don't, because one of our listeners said they bridged out to us and said you got censored when you were talking about this. Past moments reported presently with Daniel, all the historical moments got censored out because they were terrible and we said how terrible they were and apparently that didn't matter. History can't be talked about on Amazon, just not allowed, which is also probably going to get censored. But fuck Amazon.
Speaker 2:And I bet you, those two words are in an algorithm to be censored right now 100% algorithms.
Speaker 1:But guess what? I'm going to keep paying for Prime because I want my packages in two days, sometimes one.
Speaker 3:So convenient. Yeah, if I order enough stuff this is not an ad for them, by the way.
Speaker 1:But if I order enough stuff, I'll get it same day. It's nuts. It's pretty crazy. Other than that, other than the fact that I like and hate Amazon at the same time for two different things, let's talk about our weekends, man. Since we had a week off, we can talk about anything over the last week. What happened to you this last week?
Speaker 2:Not a whole lot. My son got into Pokemon.
Speaker 1:Like the card game.
Speaker 2:No, the Pokemon Go game.
Speaker 1:Oh, okay, phone game Like one of his friends at school. Is that into it?
Speaker 2:No, he's just. He was into a game like collecting markers and then another one collecting other things.
Speaker 3:And it just came up.
Speaker 2:He was playing cool blocks games and then he started getting in, I don't know, Just out of nowhere. He started watching the Pokemon show and then he started playing some knockoff Pokemon game and I was like dude, what's this? And I showed him the Pokemon Go game and then he got super excited.
Speaker 1:He's like wait what?
Speaker 2:It's pretty fun. I can say that that's fun.
Speaker 1:That sounds fun. Does he come up to you and be like dad? Have you heard of this guy? And you're like, yeah, Like 20 years ago, yeah, no.
Speaker 2:The thing is I usually haven't heard of him Because it's like the starters that I know, like the original Pokemon that I know. I tell him I know like 152 Pokemon.
Speaker 1:And he's like and there's like a thousand. He's like that's not good enough, dad. He's like I know 1200 and there's only 900.
Speaker 2:I mean, he's drawing them is what he's doing now. Good for him. He's all into that drawing.
Speaker 1:I remember doing that.
Speaker 2:I did terrible at it, though, so he like yeah, but you didn't have like a YouTube channel you could look up how to draw. No, I did not have that A specific Pokemon?
Speaker 1:I remember there would be like the commercials online where they'd be like are you an?
Speaker 3:artist, do you want to learn how to draw? Send us one of your drawings along with four easy payments of $29.95. And we'll send you these drawing kits to see if you can get into the University of Iowa, which also make sure you buy all of our cereal and send in 32 box tops with that. If you do that, you'll get 99 cents off each of the four installments.
Speaker 1:It's like dude, that's still $24.
Speaker 3:So, many hoops.
Speaker 1:Yeah, dude, Like I got to call you. My parents don't even let me use the phone like that.
Speaker 2:I'm gonna have to go to the store I got to buy cereal. I don't even like that cereal. Who's gonna eat it? Right?
Speaker 1:Man, I'm trying to think of what cereals I didn't like, but honestly, I liked all cereals.
Speaker 2:No, you're in like frosted mini-weets.
Speaker 1:I think whenever they tried to punish us and be like this is all you're getting, and then I ate it so much, I was like you know, it's not that bad if you put the frosted part down in the middle, Okay.
Speaker 2:So the unfrosted mini-weets.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, no, that was torture. That was like I hope we have a bag of sugar somewhere and then we don't. We have flour and I don't read it because it's early in the morning and your cereal's just ruined.
Speaker 2:You know what? My thing is All right. So I'm gonna ask you this right now Between cinnamon toast crunch and golden grams.
Speaker 1:Wait, are they still around?
Speaker 2:What. That is the silliest question, golden grams are still a thing. Oh, my goodness.
Speaker 1:We're not talking about snacks, right?
Speaker 2:No, we're talking about the grams that are golden, they're square, they got little ripples on them.
Speaker 1:Okay, okay, okay. Between that and what was the other one?
Speaker 2:I already forgot Cinnamon toast crunch.
Speaker 1:Cinnamon toast crunch is good, but it's got to take a backseat to the honey grams.
Speaker 2:They're not honey grams, they're golden grams. Whatever they're golden grams, yeah, golden grams, golden grams.
Speaker 1:That's the original.
Speaker 2:Yeah, okay, all right, I respect that. The only problem with it is most people say cinnamon toast crunch.
Speaker 1:Well, it's because it's more iconic.
Speaker 2:And that's the reason. But I can guarantee you that cinnamon toast crunch is not more appealing to you than golden grams, and I'll prove it right now. I dare anybody to go. Take a scoop of cinnamon on a spoon and take a scoop of honey on another spoon.
Speaker 3:Is that okay? Okay.
Speaker 2:And then eat it and tell me which is more appetizing.
Speaker 1:No, no, no. I see where you're going with this and I see what you're saying, but you're not getting the same amounts.
Speaker 2:What are you talking about?
Speaker 1:You're not getting. When you take a spoonful of cinnamon toast crunch, take a spoonful of what are they called Honey grams.
Speaker 2:No, but you're getting the same amount of cinnamon to the same amount of honey.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but it's not the amount where you're going to be like ugh.
Speaker 2:No, but the honey is still. I mean, if you take a big ass spoonful of honey it's not going to be appetizing but it's not going to make you gag and want to throw up? Well, honey's like Cinnamon is.
Speaker 1:Okay, so cinnamon will make you throw up because of the coarseness of it, but also honey is like a medicine, so, like, of course, honey is it's delicious, it's good, I'm not denying it.
Speaker 2:So even if you were to take that in like a smaller amount, just take a finger, like put a little bit of cinnamon on your finger and then honey on your other finger, I will say I put cinnamon in my coffee and not honey, and I like it better that way. But people do put honey in their coffee. Yeah, and it's fucking weird. Well, cinnamon in your coffee is weird too. Coffee's kind of weird.
Speaker 1:Coffee is kind of weird, but I don't really drink it anymore. I drink that mushroom coffee, but I still call it coffee, so it is what it is.
Speaker 2:So it's just made out of mushrooms.
Speaker 1:Lots of mushrooms.
Speaker 2:Ugh Sounds disgusting.
Speaker 1:It's my brain works better.
Speaker 2:You didn't answer.
Speaker 1:It tastes about as good as coffee, and I drink black coffee, so you can imagine what it tastes like.
Speaker 2:So do you drink black shroom juice?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I drink black shroom juice. Sometimes I drink black shroom juice that I put my psilocybin shrooms in.
Speaker 2:So do people put cream in shroom? Juice easily?
Speaker 1:I think they do. I don't, but did you hear what I just said?
Speaker 2:Psilocybin mushrooms in there. You like chipping balls?
Speaker 1:No it doesn't make me trip, bro, just rewire my brain, it's just enough. No, it's Alright. Whatever, it's not a lot. I didn't say like chipping balls, but I will, I'll do it, I'll do it, don't dare me You're not a fucking loony dude. I'm not gonna do it before like a show or something. Yeah, yeah, anything else about your weekend, week Weekend.
Speaker 2:No, no, not a whole lot. How was your weekend?
Speaker 1:You know how my week was, man, I was in Austin, bro.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but I wasn't there. I just kind of, you know, got a little 411 and then Listen, I just have no idea.
Speaker 1:So I just met a lot of cool people Did like some open mics you in a name drop. Where.
Speaker 2:Couple cool people. What cool people you name, we name dropping.
Speaker 1:Are they famous people? I mean some up and coming people.
Speaker 2:Are we name?
Speaker 1:dropping. I don't want to name drop anybody.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:Should I name drop? You could. Why should I name drop?
Speaker 2:Because you met these people. You're just saying you met them. You're not saying, oh, this guy's gonna vouch for me, that I'm funny. You're just saying hey, I shook this guy's hand, I doubt them up and said what up I?
Speaker 1:met Nathan Wallace. He's a up and coming comedian who gets paid from down in, like Fort Myers. It was just crazy because he was in Austin at the same time trying to sign up for the same guilt Tony as me.
Speaker 2:That was just a coincidence.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he was. I actually got led into the Vulcan which is Hans Kim show, but they led us in for free because this kid I met, k Squizzy. Who is this like?
Speaker 2:K Squizzy.
Speaker 1:I don't know his real name. He said it was too hard to say he's like this Indian kid from DC, but he knows everybody and he just like kind of was like hey you coming and me and my buddy went, and so we got in. We were like right outside the agreement.
Speaker 2:Kicking out with K Squizzy.
Speaker 1:Yeah, hans Kim, it's like right there, like what's up, like obviously his little fanboy action went in, hans.
Speaker 2:Kim See, that's a name I didn't recognize when I looked him up, and then he's got a recognizable face. I've seen him do this. Yeah, he's funny.
Speaker 1:He says terrible things. I met Cam Patterson. I dapped him up after one of his shows, the dude with the rock.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he's fucking cool. I met the guy who like basically like mentored him and shit, david Jolly, he's super cool, he's from here too, I feel like that name sounds familiar.
Speaker 2:Maybe it's just familiar because you had mentioned it and I looked it up.
Speaker 1:Probably yeah, he's a cool dude. I don't know man. I just met a lot of people. I met a kid who got to go on Kill Tony twice already I watched his episode and how did that go for him? I watched his episode. The person before him fucking bombed, bro bombed, and they're like you've been doing it for four years. What do we have to do to like, make you stop doing this? Like what?
Speaker 2:Damn. What do we have to do next?
Speaker 1:for you. And Rick Flair was there and he was drunk as shit.
Speaker 2:Wait, hold on. Rick Flair was on the episode or you saw Rick Flair.
Speaker 1:No, rick Flair was on the episode, okay, and Rick Flair was like drunk as shit and he's like I don't His woo's got bad.
Speaker 3:They're bad, but he's like I'm not here.
Speaker 1:I'm not here to demean people and they're like no, rick Flair, that's exactly what this show's for. You can be the good cop and we'll be the bad cop. It's fine. And Rick Flair's like trying to leave. Rick Flair did end up leaving, but he didn't leave like the first time for this kid. They're just giving this kid shit. And then they call up the other dude that I met, ben Williams, and they were like he did a good set and they were like see, this is how the show's supposed to go, that's how jokes are supposed to go. And then they asked him what he did and he's like oh, I used to be a rapper and then he fucking did good. But then Shane Gillis you know who Shane Gillis is.
Speaker 2:Not sure. Maybe if I saw the face. Yeah, he's a big chubby dude.
Speaker 1:He like has a lot of jokes about like like onset Republicanism and he likes to say gay and stuff a lot. He's like on Rogan's podcast and stuff. But he was like, oh yeah, man, that rap was awesome, was it called? And then he just started mumbling Like I think it was a mumbling, oh damn. That was like dude, it was dirty. I was like that wasn't that bad hey quick time out.
Speaker 2:I did want to rewind because a buddy of mine I didn't want to leave him out from. This past week actually took me to the Bucks game. Oh sick, so I wanted to make sure that I'd mentioned that on here because I didn't forget about that. That was a fun time and I actually remembered it because, as you're naming these comedians, I remember they snapped the camera over and it was the first time I've ever seen Burt Crusher wearing a shirt.
Speaker 1:Burt Crusher.
Speaker 2:Yeah he didn't wear it for long, as soon as he saw the camera was on, he was like oh, he started taking the shirt off and he took it off immediately, but so only time I've ever seen him with a shirt. It was red, it had some sort of emblem on it, but it wasn't on long enough for me to notice what it was.
Speaker 1:Oh, that sounds fun. Are you going to say who took you or no? You don't want to say who took you.
Speaker 2:That was my buddy, Sean, oh nice.
Speaker 1:Sean took you and you guys got to see Burt Crusher, Were you like? Hey, we're going to go find a seat and bother him?
Speaker 2:No, he was in a box. Of course he was. He wasn't dealing with us normal people.
Speaker 1:He likes normal people though.
Speaker 2:Well, I mean you can tell he was a normal person for most of his life.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he's a pretty cool guy I wanted to like. I remember when I first saw him I wanted to be like oh, I don't like him, but he's really likable yeah, he's likable.
Speaker 2:It's just because he's different because he doesn't wear a shirt and he doesn't carry it, embraces himself and he just doesn't give a fuck when it's like this.
Speaker 1:I remember like Tom Seguro was talking about him and he was like Burt, your waist is looking pretty big. He's like yeah, but have you seen my shoulders though?
Speaker 3:They look pretty thick.
Speaker 1:He's a good deflector, I don't know, but yeah, man, other than the Austin thing, I met a bunch of those people that were cool, met some other people, I'm sure I don't know. I just I want to move back out there, but Tuesday I did a show in St Pete and I met a bunch of comedians here too, so it was just like getting sprinkled in everywhere that's pretty cool.
Speaker 2:Do you ever call that guy that? Remember you're talking about? You might have been talking about it on the last episode.
Speaker 1:Yeah, the battle. Thing.
Speaker 2:Yeah, where you want to reach.
Speaker 1:I reached back out but we didn't have really like the same idea for how the format of the show should go. He wanted, like the audience, I think, to decide, which would be cool. But in my opinion, most of those things when they start up they don't have much of an audience. So it's hard. You're going to be like, hey, the three of you.
Speaker 2:Was he a promoter of some sort where he would be able to bring an audience in?
Speaker 1:I mean some people, but like I don't. So the guy I was talking to two guys. One guy was a promoter and had no venue. The other guy had a venue and didn't have a promoter and they didn't want to work together and it was just. I was in the middle and I'm like hey. I'm just trying to host this thing, yeah, so I mean, it doesn't really matter. Like I'll figure it out.
Speaker 2:And then did you ever hear back from was it Fort Lauderdale, I think you said Put out an offer, for I think it was to do some sort of part of your gig or something.
Speaker 1:Not Fort Lauderdale, it was in another state, I think.
Speaker 2:Oh, it was a different state, yeah.
Speaker 1:I didn't hear back from that. No, it's okay. I mean I'm just going to keep pushing and keep trying, you know. Yeah, why not? I heard that I just got to keep doing these crappy open mics until one day someone's like hey, you want to do the showcase and it showcases basically like in front of important people. And that's when you bring the A plus plus material like the whole time and just fucking crush the shred, the showcase I found out. You're not supposed to shred every time.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you want to go up there and you want to try new shit. Like you can go up and tell the same jokes every single time and shred every single time, right. But like you don't want to do that, you want to go, try a bunch of new shit and see what works and what doesn't work. And that's why what I showed you I think maybe 30% of it was funny. I even skipped some of it because, like I didn't like it. Yeah, it is what it is.
Speaker 2:Well, at least you're learning the tricks of the trade.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I finally wrote a good clean joke, and it's about how I thought there'd be more pancakes in adult life.
Speaker 2:Pancakes are what you make them in.
Speaker 1:And that's exactly why there's not more pancakes in adult life. That's the joke, but you have to hear it all the way out.
Speaker 2:Yeah, well, go to Drew's next show and you can see the delivery on that one.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think I'm only gonna post, like the big venues shows, you know, not the little open mics I got you. Yeah, but yeah, man, other than that, we got a couple of things to talk about. We're gonna go into our two segments, and then our articles and-.
Speaker 2:Our two segments.
Speaker 1:You have a segment, I have a segment.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we're doing your segment now.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I have a segment, I have my TikTok, trends segment.
Speaker 2:I like it, I like it, I really like it. All right, nice, I'll have to think of some sort of segue to lead you in.
Speaker 1:Ha, we don't have to do it perfectly this time, not this time, but we can think about it, we'll brainstorm it.
Speaker 3:We had a whole week off.
Speaker 2:We should have fucking figured it out then.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, life sucks. So we are going to go into our next segment, which is past moments reported presently with Daniel. Take it away.
Speaker 2:All right, and today we're doing Tuesday, September 26th.
Speaker 1:I like both ways.
Speaker 2:And in 1580, sir Francis Drake completes his trip around the world. Nearly three years after setting sail, francis Drake returns to port in Plymouth, england, becoming first Englishman to circumnavigate the globe. The expedition was authorized by Queen Elizabeth I, and Drake led five ships on his voyage of discovery. That was really a covert raiding mission.
Speaker 1:Hey, time out, time out, time out. Isn't it crazy that it's you really?
Speaker 2:going to cut me off before we figure out where he raids.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yeah, just because I think it's crazy that it takes a queen, not a king, a queen, to sanction a covert raiding mission.
Speaker 3:Ha, ha ha.
Speaker 2:Do you think she knew what was going on? She's on that sanction, that shit. Well she, she sanctioned the voyage of the discovery.
Speaker 3:No, she said, we will call it a voyage of discovery, that's what you think happened.
Speaker 2:I don't know how I was in there and I don't think anyone knows how my, my okay, but, but they right, but nobody knows. There's like to think that the queen is a well-upstanding citizen.
Speaker 1:I don't, because there's a bunch of kings and then the second there's a queen. We get that. Okay, just continue. I'm sorry, I just had to cut you off. I didn't want it to be a long thing.
Speaker 2:The explorer across the Atlantic rounded the South tip of South America, plundered Spanish ports and landed in California, before navigating across the Pacific and Indian oceans and back to England.
Speaker 1:You're telling me that she didn't know he smoked.
Speaker 2:Spain.
Speaker 1:She goes yeah, just go discover, make sure you don't fuck with Spain, though. No, I will discover second and fuck with Spain first.
Speaker 2:There's, like rounded the tip of South America. Nothing we want here. Spain, let's just plunder that land in California where there's nothing, and head on back Just a pit stop in Spain.
Speaker 1:It was, uh, they, probably, they probably. Uh, when they went back to England they probably went through the Mediterranean like just to go by Spain and like just flew their flags and like moondom.
Speaker 2:Just wave and shit.
Speaker 3:We got your stuff.
Speaker 1:You want it back, you All right.
Speaker 2:So then, on September 26th in 1898, george Gershwin is born.
Speaker 1:He's got a sick name.
Speaker 2:You know who he is. I don't. We're going to learn today. American composer and pianist George Gershwin is born in Brooklyn, new York. He began studying music at the age of 11 and by his teens he was known as one of the most talented pianists in New York. Some of Gershwin's most famous works include Rhapsody in Blue and the opera Porgy and Best Porgy and Best Porgy and Best.
Speaker 1:It sounded funny when you said Porgy.
Speaker 2:Porgy uh I was reading the. Orgy with a P yeah, pretty funny. And he composed 48 shows in total for musical theater and Broadway over the course of his prolific career. Though he died of a brain tumor at just 38 in 1937, his composition compositions remain an essential part of the American songbook to this day. Oh, this next one's lighthearted.
Speaker 1:I like some lightheartedness stuff because, like last time we got censored, amazon censored.
Speaker 2:You guys want to censor this September 26, 1969.
Speaker 3:You maybe can censor 1969.
Speaker 2:The Brady Bunch premieres on television. The Brady Bunch premiered on television and the beloved American television show revolved around a large blended family, the Brady's, and their adventures. Although it was never a big hit during its time on the air, the show became a cultural icon in the years following its cancellation in 1937.
Speaker 1:That's so brutal. You need to get canceled to like become big.
Speaker 2:The show eventually featured several spin-offs, including films and Christmas albums. Even today, the show's theme song is easily identified. Television theme song and pop culture history.
Speaker 1:I could probably start singing it right now.
Speaker 2:They were like rappers back then. You gotta get smoked, so someone listen to your song.
Speaker 1:Oh man like go get a rest or something.
Speaker 2:Censored Um 1983.
Speaker 1:Can I try to say his name? Yeah, go for it Uh Stanzaloff Petrov Prevents the outbreak of nuclear war.
Speaker 2:Did that sound good? It sounded good. Yeah, Um, I'm not going to say it. Stanzaloff Petrov.
Speaker 1:Lieutenant Colonel in the Soviet military, you'll have to read the whole thing with the accent. I just don't want to only say his name.
Speaker 2:Well, I'm just saying with the accent oh, he single-handedly saves the world from nuclear war when he decides not to report an apparent incoming nuclear strike from the United States. Petrov was monitoring the Soviet Union's missile attack early warning system when he saw an alert that America had launched five missiles toward the USSR. Had he reported the strike, the Soviets would likely have retaliated at sparking nuclear war. But Petrov concluded that the warning was a false alarm and indeed the system had registered the sun's reflection off of clouds as a series of missiles, Bro, bro.
Speaker 1:So that to me is why Crazy.
Speaker 2:Would the world have ended because of the reflection of the sun Like? Imagine the population or the, the civilizations that pop up afterwards, like thousands of years like us. What eliminated humans? Well, here's the deal.
Speaker 1:Here's the deal. What if? What if this dude right here? What if he wasn't there? What if it was an AI that was there? Smoked, we'd all be dead Because it would immediately be like threat doesn't matter, it would find a way to make it a threat.
Speaker 2:Yeah, for sure, that's crazy. It's so scary.
Speaker 1:I'm glad that humans are in control of things like that, yeah.
Speaker 2:I'm glad for Stanislaw Petrov. See, you did a good job I think I just didn't use the accent. I like the accent.
Speaker 1:Stanislaw Petrov.
Speaker 3:He says, the best vodka.
Speaker 2:September 26, 2012. Actor Johnny Lee Lewis. I just added the Lee.
Speaker 3:Oh man, I love Johnny Lee Lewis.
Speaker 2:Just draw that one in there. So sorry, sorry, sorry 2012, actor Johnny Lewis falls to his death after Kelly's death. After Kelly's landlady.
Speaker 3:Whoa, that's double brutal.
Speaker 2:Suffering from severe mental health issues. Actor Johnny Lewis of Sons of Anarchy.
Speaker 3:Oh, shizn't it.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, I remember he was the. He was like the recruit guy.
Speaker 1:I don't know. I'm going to look him up right now. Keep talking.
Speaker 2:Um the prospect. Look up prospect. He's the prospect. Um of Sons of Anarchy fame. Murders his landlady before falling to his death off the roof of his Los Angeles home. Ever since he sustained serious head injuries due to a motorcycle accident in October 2011, lewis had been exhibiting increasingly bizarre and aggressive behavior, including several violent outbursts and an attempt to break into an innocent woman's home. Just five days after being released from jail for these crimes, lewis attacked two of his neighbors, strangled and beat his 81 year old landlady to death, and then died after falling from the roof of his home.
Speaker 1:That's fucking brutal dude and I'm sorry that things happen to people like where they hit their heads and they just change dude. Right, it's so brutal, like like that's basically what happened? To Antonio Brown.
Speaker 2:Vontaz, perfect happened there.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, well, we can talk about who or what, but we're talking about his brain. I'm talking about his brain, right. I don't care about the cause, fucked up, yeah, that's Well. All the rest were kind of cool.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I got dark near the end, but the rest were.
Speaker 1:Nonsense or a bull.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that was probably one of the most lighthearted days in history you'll have, so yeah hold on to September 26. Guys don't do bad shit, so I don't have to talk about it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that'd be great, be real great, yeah, so I don't know. Man, you want me, you want to go into my auto, not article, but my little segment.
Speaker 2:You're in your new segment.
Speaker 1:Yeah, my segment is just about the most recent TikTok trend.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think it's a good time to do that.
Speaker 1:Have you you heard about the new one.
Speaker 2:No, I heard about a new meme, but I'm a trend.
Speaker 1:It's kind of a meme and and and it's not really trend so much, but it's like. It says like Like, how often do you think about the Roman Empire? You've been asked that question.
Speaker 2:I have not, but I actually think about it more than most people.
Speaker 1:Why more than most people? How many times a day?
Speaker 2:Every day.
Speaker 1:How many times?
Speaker 2:14, 15.
Speaker 1:All right, so that is a lot. But most men say they think about it three times a day, sometimes three times a week, and then, like the hardcore guys are like only like three times a year. But the funny thing is is women who say that they think about the Roman Empire a lot, like more than most people they'll be like once or twice a year.
Speaker 2:That's crazy, yeah, they don't think about it. Yeah, so I talk about it or I think about the Roman Empire a little bit more, because my son's name is Roman.
Speaker 1:Right. Do you think, though, when your wife thinks about Roman, she thinks about the Roman Empire every time, or she thinks about her son?
Speaker 2:I don't know, probably the latter.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm just guessing. It's just a thing that women do and that's a thing on TikTok. They go and they ask people what they think about it and apparently men they say we're obsessed with it because it's like a chauvinistic type, like masculine empire, you know.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I guess I always just I mean, there's a couple civilizations. That's always just kind of odd to me.
Speaker 1:I mean, we all say the same things. It's so stupid. We're like what's wrong with advancing civilization in aqueducts, in medicine and math? What's wrong with all those things? There's nothing wrong with those things, but as men, we just think about it more. I also said your son's name is Roman. But I don't know, man, caesar was a Roman emperor, right, and like I had a joke about it, like I was like there's guys named Caesar. We think about emphers. You guys just think about salads and croutons.
Speaker 3:I hate thinking about salads.
Speaker 2:We know you do we know you do. I promise you, nothing makes me think about a salad. I never go to salad.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm not sure, but that's this TikTok trend of right now, so I figured we talk about that a little bit Like food and then you call it salad, but then tell me oh, it's not like a salad, I'm not going to eat it. What if I gave you a taco salad?
Speaker 2:Nope.
Speaker 1:And it had no lettuce.
Speaker 2:Nope, it could just be shells, meat and cheese. But if you call it a taco salad, I'm not eating that shit.
Speaker 1:Sick. So if I ever want to be like, hey, I have taco night and you come over and there's like some left, I'm like, hey, that's a taco salad, you don't want that.
Speaker 2:I'm going to say fuck yourself. Why would you invite?
Speaker 1:me here.
Speaker 1:Well, because you already had some of the tacos. Oh well, then I don't even want it Exactly so you can talk. I was insane. It's a salad. At this point it's fine. Oh man, yeah, but so that's the TikTok trend. It's kind of boring, yeah, kind of lame. We're making good time. These episodes, I think, are going to get a little shorter. We might be able to record some more or do a little shorts or something. I don't know. We'll have some more time on our allotment. It's good, I like that. Yeah, do you want to go into our articles? Or? Yeah, I'll start. Yeah, mine's kind of a weird one.
Speaker 2:No, mine's not weird and it's not dark at all, so that's good.
Speaker 1:See, look, we're a fun podcast.
Speaker 2:We're very fun. So mine is about an autistic boy who won the national golf tournament and he had only played three rounds of golf in his life.
Speaker 1:Sounds like he's more than a natural.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he's 12 years old, he's named Bailey Teepa Teepa Teru and he's become the talk of the town in his native New Zealand, after he won a national golf tournament, despite having played just three rounds of golf in his entire life. He was playing with borrowed clubs and he was wearing basketball shoes, and he managed to score an 87 and stable forward points.
Speaker 1:Basketball shoes.
Speaker 2:Yeah, basketball shoes and borrowed clubs. And the tournament was the put on by the association of intermediate and middle schools games. His feet's more than impressive when you consider that he had previously only played three rounds of golf his whole life. A few months back, his teacher aide noticed that the 12 year old autistic boy loved swinging a stick all the time, and so he suggested trying golf. I don't know why not baseball, but he said golf.
Speaker 1:He's swinging it towards the ground.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that could be. Bailey agreed and despite having only completed three rounds of golf, he entered into the tournament and he beat everybody.
Speaker 1:Wait, he's in New Zealand though. That's why they said golf instead of baseball.
Speaker 2:They play baseball over there yeah. They play golf more. Obviously, bailey doesn't know the technical stuff about playing golf. Bailey's teacher and golf coach said His game is just to step up and hit the ball. So that's pretty much what he does. He doesn't worry about if he's done a bad shot or a good shot or it's taking him too much time to get onto the shot. He just loves the sport and I think just that passion alone drives him to play good golf.
Speaker 1:I mean, you're supposed to go out there and have fun at the end of the day, right?
Speaker 2:Yup Bailey's been swinging sticks since he was able to walk. He's on the autism spectrum and he didn't really talk to anybody at school. His teacher, who's also his it's a teacher's aide who's also his golf coach why Remu, why Remu? He struggled a lot to get him to come out of his shell and so he tried to get him into sports and it looks like he paid off, because that kid is if he keeps it up.
Speaker 1:He's going to be a fucking.
Speaker 2:He could get paid For sure.
Speaker 1:It seems like he knows what he's doing already, with just four rounds in.
Speaker 2:Dude, an 87 is a hell of a score.
Speaker 1:I don't know anything about golf, but you're telling me it's good, so I'm going to believe you. All he does is go up and smash the ball Like the most happy Gilmore type of thing ever. Whoa, did I just make a reference? Is happy Gilmore autistic? I?
Speaker 2:guess that's him right there. I guess that's all the.
Speaker 1:I know, but isn't that crazy Did I think about it. What Happy Gilmore being autistic, I mean something's wrong with him.
Speaker 2:I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with autistic?
Speaker 3:people, I'm just saying there was something more wrong with that I guess I could say something was off about him.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he was not normal.
Speaker 2:He was different. He is in all of his movies, though, like Billy Madison.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, well, that one, he's just stupid. That one, he definitely plays a kid with a low IQ Like a learning disability.
Speaker 2:Wasn't there another one.
Speaker 1:Mr Deeds. But that one, he's just a nice like pizza guy who writes like hallmark cards and he sucks at them.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but he would be lower on the IQ spectrum than that one even.
Speaker 1:Yeah, oh, and.
Speaker 2:Big Daddy.
Speaker 1:Big Daddy, he's just a loser.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but he's not supposed to be very smart. I mean maybe street smart, throws cans on the ground and gets the discount for the dents.
Speaker 1:I like that. I like that a lot.
Speaker 2:But aside from that, he doesn't know too much. He couldn't even help the kid with his homework which, by the way, I shouldn't say anything because I can't even help my kid with his homework.
Speaker 1:Yeah, no, I can't help kids with homework.
Speaker 2:It doesn't make sense. They teach it weird. I'd say I don't agree with it, but I don't understand enough to agree or disagree, so I can't even have an opinion.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm not even allowed to have an opinion.
Speaker 2:Nope, I don't understand it. They're getting to the same answer that I got to.
Speaker 1:Oh man.
Speaker 2:But that's my article.
Speaker 1:That's a fun one, though, because it proves that like I love when these autistic people like are just like they're naturally good at like a thing Like this kid swinging sticks, and someone just put a golf club in his name and was like hey, and he's like yeah fourth time smash, and some old guys have been playing it for 30 years and can't score that.
Speaker 1:I love it. I love seeing that. I hope he plays it forever and I hope he becomes so good that he doesn't even know how good he is and he doesn't even care.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's pretty solid.
Speaker 1:So on the earth, my article is about a man in Russia who reports his first date to the police after she refused to split the bill.
Speaker 2:I mean. So I think in that situation he should have just left and the restaurant would have reported her. You know, just pay your part and leave.
Speaker 1:And I think they let you do that.
Speaker 2:I feel like that's going to be the resolution.
Speaker 1:Police are currently on the lookout for a young girl. I'm sorry. It says they're on the lookout, like they're already looking out for this bitch who, reportedly, stormed out of the restaurant, did what you said, leaving her date to foot the bill after he asked her to split it evenly. Handling the bill on a first date had always been a point of contention, as some people believe men should cover the entire cost always, while others are convinced that going Dutch is the only way, which obviously is sharing. Both sides have their arguments, and while online forums are full of endless debates on this subject, there was never really cause for involving the police Up until recently when the 28 year old man from Moscow filed a complaint against the woman he went on the date with after she refused to split the bill, leaving him to cover the entire 16,000 rubles, which is $165.
Speaker 2:Okay. So to any lady or man out there who thinks that a man should be responsible for paying the bill, the whole bill on a first date I mean any date, let alone the first date I'm gonna tell you exactly what I tell my kids and you are responsible for you. That means if you show up to a date and you eat a steak, a person sitting on the other side of the table is not responsible to pay your bill. You are responsible for you Every time. Every time, you're responsible for you.
Speaker 1:Unless it's been stated before prior.
Speaker 2:Exactly, unless you're married. If you guys are married, then you can get away with it, but if not I mean legally you are responsible for you.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and that's what's important.
Speaker 2:That's why they're looking for her. That's why this guy's not in cuffs.
Speaker 1:The guy paid it, though, and the woman just stormed out, so she stole from him. Yeah, that's why he reported her.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he didn't just do it, he went right to the police station.
Speaker 2:I wouldn't have paid. I was like I didn't eat that food. I don't know what you want from me.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't think Russia works like that, though I think if he didn't pay he'd go to jail jail. So he paid and he's like she's gonna go to jail jail. Well here, it works like that. Yeah, it does work like that.
Speaker 2:Here I could be like that was the first date, yeah, but also when I first saw 16,000 roubles I was like ah, and it said 165,.
Speaker 1:I'm like oh.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I was gonna say that money's not.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but when you say 16,000 of anything, I'm like damn dude, you better be naked right now.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but so what do you think that they think about us when we're like yeah, I got 140 bucks.
Speaker 1:Like you poor ass mother fucker. Yeah, you poor piece of shit.
Speaker 2:I'm like see, like buy a old dinner bitch.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's like, yeah, this TV 600 bucks. So they're like, what that thing's worth? 96,000 roubles.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's a 96,000 rouble TV right there. Sounds better that way.
Speaker 1:It does until you. You could just say pesos. Hey, I got paid 500,000 for this last show.
Speaker 2:Do you know that our dollar sign comes from the word pesos?
Speaker 1:No, I did not know that.
Speaker 2:Just you said that and that just started when I was in.
Speaker 1:Texas. I was like I was in the Capitol building in Austin and I saw a bunch of these Alamo like paintings and it was like, oh, it was like remember when we all came together and I was like remember when we finally decided that this was ours and we're gonna fucking take it Like plenty of Hispanic people that are not into that. You know what I'm saying? Right, there's this, there's that one comedian, he's this Mexican dude and he's from Texas and he's like, yeah, I don't really like country. And all my friends are like, oh, you don't like country man yeah the George Strait.
Speaker 2:He's like you haven't he's like you just haven't listened to George Strait and he says something he's like yeah, george Strait has a song.
Speaker 1:I listened to it and he goes. The first line was oh, how I wish I was back in Texas 200 years ago. And he just looks and he goes. All right man, I don't really know that. I agree.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's not for me. He goes, I understand.
Speaker 1:I understand why some people might like this song.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's pretty funny.
Speaker 1:It's true, though, because, like some white guy being like, listen to this and it's like dude no, yeah, no, but the pesos thing is our money.
Speaker 2:We didn't know what to call our money and so we called it pesos, because we just adopted it from fucking Mexico, so we called them pesos and it was the American peso, I would imagine we called them pesos. So you write your money like 17,. I have 17, and then you write pesos.
Speaker 1:Are you sure it's pesos and not sent Cause I thought the sent came from Pence.
Speaker 2:No, so listen, hold on, let me get back.
Speaker 1:I'm gonna listen, okay, but that's what I thought.
Speaker 2:So it would be pesos, so we'd write 17 pesos. Well, then it evolved to where it was 17 PS, because they didn't want to write all the pesos out. And then they started stacking, so they took the P and they wrote the S, or the P on top of the S, so pesos, ps, you know, with the P on top of the S. And then we got even lazier and we dropped the circle off of the P, so it was just the S with the line through it. And then somebody's, like a dollar and I don't know who, came along and said oh, this is dollars on, but it came from pesos.
Speaker 1:I mean, I'm inclined to believe you because I have the internet in front of me, but I don't want to look it up and it sounds legit.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I learned it in school.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I didn't learn much in school. School didn't teach me a whole lot of things. It was college school. College taught me that I had more social anxiety than I thought.
Speaker 2:Yeah, college taught me that I started late.
Speaker 1:Starting college late is fine, I heard somebody like they were like and what's your birth year?
Speaker 2:Someone was like 2004. It was like go kill yourself.
Speaker 1:People are always way, way, way younger than me, bro, in every situation, like at work. This girl just turned 25 yesterday and she was like when do you think if you make it in comedy will be the earliest you made it? I'm like I don't know, five or six years maybe. And I was like when I'm like 41 or like 43. And she's like wait, oh yeah, I always forget you're 36. I'm like, oh, I just act like an idiot, like so people don't see me as an old person because I don't have a wife, I don't have kids.
Speaker 2:I'm just flipping stupid ass you know, yeah, people see me as old because I got kids and Like I can't do that, bro, I gotta get back to my kid because he's got the flu.
Speaker 1:And I'm like some little kid has a flu. I pushed him in fucking into a pool. I don't know that sounds bad.
Speaker 2:That's gonna get censored by prime it's the gray hairs, bro, it's the gray hairs that do it. I kind of am just rocking the gray hairs.
Speaker 1:People don't really under. Yeah, no, I get stressed Sometimes. I try not to get anymore because the gray hairs-.
Speaker 2:I got kids is when I had gray hairs, just.
Speaker 1:I find that if I ever worry about money, I start to get gray hairs. So I decided I'm just not gonna worry about it anymore. This is not gonna be a problem.
Speaker 2:That's a good thought.
Speaker 1:I mean I'm gonna work, I'm gonna do what I have to do, but I'm gonna really embrace this poor comedian thing. I've been eating a lot of rice, a lot of chicken thighs. It's good for you On sale.
Speaker 2:It's really good for you Broccoli's cheap. It's good for your stomach, good for your insides, yeah.
Speaker 1:I will say, after comedy shows I kind of have a problem where I like to go to Taco Bell and spend like six bucks on gross burritos. Yeah, that's the worst.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I haven't eaten freaking fast food, I don't think in 2023.
Speaker 1:That's a good thing for you, man. Yeah Well, how about we ended on talking shit about fast food? So we don't get demonetized by those people, even though we're not monetized yet?
Speaker 2:Yeah, they can't ban us.
Speaker 1:No, they can't ban us. But what if, one day, wendy's wants to be like Daniel? We would like you to have our new healthy menu, which is just meats and cheeses that you can work out with, and we'll sponsor you. We would want that right.
Speaker 2:No, just meats and cheeses, I mean bread.
Speaker 1:Well, duh, that too. I meant no vegio tables. Oh yeah, I don't like those. Yeah, we're leaving those out for you.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1:The new DeRue lineup at Wendy's.
Speaker 2:I'm not singling out names here, I'm not calling out brands.
Speaker 1:I am. I want sponsorships and I don't care how I get it. Listen.
Speaker 2:They started from talking shit about fast food.
Speaker 1:That's why I said we shouldn't do it. I was saying the other day that the price of things is so expensive that I was gonna start just carrying around like a ham sandwich in my pocket and like maybe if I always use helmets, I could like get helmets to sponsor me that would be so gross, but it could work.
Speaker 2:How's it gross? Just ham sandwiches and just warm ass ham sandwiches, isn't that? It's fucking melting all day.
Speaker 3:What's the difference?
Speaker 1:between a ham sandwich in the pocket and a ham sandwich in a brown paper bag.
Speaker 2:One, it's gonna have cheese in your pocket. The other one's gonna leak the cheese in the bag.
Speaker 1:It's not gonna leak, it's not just gonna be in the pocket it's gonna be in a sandwich bag you dumbass, it's fucking floating.
Speaker 3:Ha ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ha.
Speaker 2:Is it gonna be a Ziploc or a Fold Top?
Speaker 1:It's gonna be a Ziploc sandwich bag, a Fold Top, ha ha ha, ha, ha, ha ha. You thought I was just gonna put a sandwich in my pocket.
Speaker 2:A Fold Top is not foolproof.
Speaker 1:No, but I pictured you thinking I cut my sandwich tag nearly and put each half in one of my pockets. No, you didn't.
Speaker 2:Originally I imagined you just stuffed that bitch in one Ha ha, ha, ha ha ha. I was like folded like a U. And my tight skinny jeans pulled that like what the holy dynamite and just started eating it in line at DMV Same my time same my thoughts for later.
Speaker 1:Any place that doesn't say no outside food or out or drink, I just like in the other pocket, I just pull like one of those old chocolate milks from like school out.
Speaker 2:Just oh shit.
Speaker 1:They would be like bro, where did you get that?
Speaker 2:you're way too old for that. That's the best man.
Speaker 1:I asked some kid who just recently graduated high school. I was like do they still have those?
Speaker 2:He's like yeah, those in the rectangle pizzas.
Speaker 1:The octagon breakfast pizzas. Man, I love the rectangle pizzas, you know, those shitty breakfast ones that have egg and sausage on them.
Speaker 2:I looked them up. You can buy those rectangle pizzas. It's like a big-ass square that you cut into rectangles.
Speaker 1:No wonder why we don't have an oven big enough, stupid, cheap. We should do it. We should do that for the next Super Bowl party. Tana, that's a da-da. Have you ever heard heard Bill Burr talk about Super Bowl parties? I Think he says, he fucking hates it yeah cuz everybody's like shut up, shut up. The commercials are on. I can't watch it and then they talked during the game and he's like we fucking go die somewhere.
Speaker 2:Hey, bill Burr is funny.
Speaker 1:He's so angry all the time and he's like always talking about how his wife tells him he's too angry and how he's not trying to be angry anymore. And then his kids will tell him he's too angry.
